Speaker 1: Look man, oh I see you? Why why? Oh? And
Speaker 1: look over there? How is that ulture? Yes, goodness ding
Speaker 1: dong less culture. Risa's calling Happy grew Yer twenty absolutely one,
Speaker 1: Happy grew here to you. You are singing a little
Speaker 1: bar of this song that is stuck in your head,
Speaker 1: and you said you have we have to talk about it,
Speaker 1: and I actually do want to have a meta conversation
Speaker 1: after you tell me about who this Olivia girl is.
Speaker 1: That's good to know that an interest of mine has
Speaker 1: already inspired a meta conversation for you. Yes, all right,
Speaker 1: Well the song the hook, and the song goes like this,
Speaker 1: guess you didn't me what you said? And your song
Speaker 1: a band me and it's Olivia Rodrigo and the song
Speaker 1: is Driver's License. Who is she? She was a Disney
Speaker 1: star girl and now she's going to have a Billboard
Speaker 1: Hot one number one hit because this song has exploded.
Speaker 1: I have not heard of this Olivia girl. Maybe I've
Speaker 1: been living under a damn rock. Well, she's literally a
Speaker 1: young girl. She's seventeen. She's very young girl. Like the
Speaker 1: young gen z ors know about her, and I believe
Speaker 1: that it is because of their knowledge of her that
Speaker 1: she sort of exploded. So because she is going to
Speaker 1: have like a number one hit on the Billboard charts
Speaker 1: and it was just released. Now, pray, tell, what is
Speaker 1: this meta conversation? Well, I don't mean to bring this
Speaker 1: tone into our discourse, especially so early on in the year.
Speaker 1: I am just a little I'm I'm once again finding
Speaker 1: myself to be a little disappointed in my sister. I
Speaker 1: try to introduce my sister to some culture, and she
Speaker 1: is not enthusiastic. She's not playing Breath of the Wild.
Speaker 1: She's not playing she's not getting into any video game culture.
Speaker 1: I told you why I wasn't playing it because my
Speaker 1: the the space, I didn't have enough space. That's not
Speaker 1: my or whatever. You and no, Ellen, that's not that's
Speaker 1: not the truth. You don't call me Ellen. Do all
Speaker 1: shut up for you? And also you you did bring
Speaker 1: me to bring this energy. And of course I downloadle
Speaker 1: Breath of the World and I played it for about
Speaker 1: three hours. You didn't even get off the damn plateau,
Speaker 1: and and you've written off this match. I tried to
Speaker 1: get off the plateau, and I told you what my
Speaker 1: next move was that I was going to go online
Speaker 1: and look at like what to do online? I just
Speaker 1: didn't get to it. I'm actually busy. Meanwhile, you know
Speaker 1: that I'm gonna after this episode ends, I'm gonna, you know,
Speaker 1: as a courtesy to my friend, check out this Olivia girl,
Speaker 1: and you're gonna have to listen to that song for
Speaker 1: four minutes. And I played Breath of the Wild for hours.
Speaker 1: And also, how dare you? How do you say that
Speaker 1: I'm not exposing myself to do a culture You know,
Speaker 1: I watched all nineteen hours of the Sound of Music.
Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about it today. No, it truly it. Okay,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about it. We'll talk about it. But look,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry reader that we are bringing. Matt and I
Speaker 1: are on very good terms. I have got very understand you.
Speaker 1: What do you mean? No, No, you came on the
Speaker 1: zoom and you were shaking your eyes at me. You
Speaker 1: were saying, I'm done with you. You beast, You beast.
Speaker 1: You are a beast. You are the beast, pure evil?
Speaker 1: How dare you? It's pure evil? It is you are
Speaker 1: a beast. I don't understand what this is because I
Speaker 1: came on today excited to see you. Funk. I always
Speaker 1: met with silence when I text that you were late
Speaker 1: by myself. No, don't start with me. You're flop flop
Speaker 1: Utica Queen Jester or flop that's what you like? Flop.
Speaker 1: I was saying in the group text when I said
Speaker 1: I need some of my friends to start watching ninety
Speaker 1: A Fiance with me because I feel like I'm all
Speaker 1: alone over here. No one responded except Aaron Jackson. You.
Speaker 1: My my sister will refuses to watch ninety Fiance with
Speaker 1: me when I tell him that it's an ex silent
Speaker 1: reality viewing experience. First of all, one time, when I
Speaker 1: was at your apartment, we did watch Fiance and also
Speaker 1: listen Bowen Yang if that's really your name, because you
Speaker 1: don't seem like my sister right now. Seem like an
Speaker 1: absolute attacker. M you look like one of those you
Speaker 1: know what's attackers. I don't know what. I don't know what.
Speaker 1: You look like one of those Capitol Hill attackers. Okay,
Speaker 1: no out. My sister accused me of being an insurrectionist.
Speaker 1: We're recording this after truly the fire on the Reichstag
Speaker 1: of our country. Oh my god, I can't believe I
Speaker 1: wanted to. I wanted. I definitely want to talk about it.
Speaker 1: But wait first, I just want to say that you
Speaker 1: listening to Olivia Rodrigo is going to be a four
Speaker 1: minute experience. It's one song me getting into Nino da Fiance.
Speaker 1: Do you have any idea how much trash I watch
Speaker 1: on television? I'm I'm I have so much stuff to watch.
Speaker 1: Add one more to the pile, honey, Okay, But I'm
Speaker 1: saying it's not an attack on you that I'm not
Speaker 1: watching to day Fiance. It's also so funny that we're
Speaker 1: arguing like this and are matching taylors of cardigans that
Speaker 1: we just can't see. But we're throwing our cardigans. Look,
Speaker 1: I just wanted to I wanted to start this year
Speaker 1: off with some honesty. That's it. And I feel this way.
Speaker 1: I feel this way sometimes I don't get to share
Speaker 1: in the cultural experiences that I am enjoying at the
Speaker 1: moment because my sister is over there saying things like
Speaker 1: you know, you know, no no bone bonny, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: I guess I already remember the hook, and you already
Speaker 1: remember the I don't remember the d So I just
Speaker 1: listened to it like three times Driver's License because the
Speaker 1: song is about how she's young and so the song
Speaker 1: is about like I got your I got my driver's license,
Speaker 1: like we always talked about. That's how the song starts.
Speaker 1: It's really good. Can I just say it's sort of
Speaker 1: like it's like Taylor Swift lyrics with like Billie Eilish
Speaker 1: like delivery in terms of vocals. Until she opens up
Speaker 1: and there's some like there's some like Ariana Grande capability
Speaker 1: in there, and then who does she become? She sort
Speaker 1: of becomes an amalgamation of them all. She becomes Olivia Rodrigo.
Speaker 1: You seem well, I guess I'll check her out. I
Speaker 1: really recommend you start watching season two or three if
Speaker 1: D Fiance before the ninety Days. I'm sure so many
Speaker 1: readers are in ninety day Nation. But I find it
Speaker 1: so wonderful because it's the perfect cleaning show. It's the
Speaker 1: perfect show to like put on in the background while
Speaker 1: you fold laundry, while you, you know, do a little
Speaker 1: do little chores around the home, cooking, cleaning and the
Speaker 1: iron ing, all of it. I really think my sister
Speaker 1: would enjoy those sorts of sort of house things. Yes,
Speaker 1: house things. Now. I just want to because because this
Speaker 1: is sort of the extent of my knowledge about Fiance.
Speaker 1: It is an arranged fiance program and basically you meet
Speaker 1: someone from in the world that wants to get married
Speaker 1: as well, and they follow you for ninety days and
Speaker 1: then you get married. Is that the idea and the baseline.
Speaker 1: I guess, I don't know if you call it that.
Speaker 1: The the original ninety Day Fiance series is people from
Speaker 1: foreign countries coming to America on a K one visa
Speaker 1: in order to meet people that they may or may
Speaker 1: not already be engaged to Americans and then they have
Speaker 1: ninety days to get married. The spinoffs, like before the
Speaker 1: ninety days, are the Americans going to the foreign countries
Speaker 1: to meet these people for the first time, people that
Speaker 1: they've chatted with on apps fall in love. It's not
Speaker 1: the show arranging it. It's that the show finds people
Speaker 1: who have already been in these conversations. Sometimes it's clear
Speaker 1: that the couples just want to be on TV. And
Speaker 1: sometimes you know, uh, in some tragic cases, someone will
Speaker 1: go to a foreign country to meet someone in the
Speaker 1: person won't show up. That tragedy very tragic. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: very tragic. There's nint Day Fiance the other way, which
Speaker 1: is Americans going to foreign country to live there, moved
Speaker 1: to other countries to be with their their freature spouses.
Speaker 1: There's just there's a lot of a lot of beautiful
Speaker 1: storytelling going on, tragic storytelling to experience. Yeah, it feels
Speaker 1: that way. And so after the ninety Days is I
Speaker 1: guess just like a sort of docuseriies about what's happened
Speaker 1: to them post the show. Well, yeah, and sometimes there's
Speaker 1: one called Happily ever After, which is that? Or sometimes
Speaker 1: the people from before the niney Days move on to
Speaker 1: the mainline Fiance series, people like Angela and Michael, people
Speaker 1: like Darcy. Maybe no Darcy icon. The fact that you
Speaker 1: knew their names sarch suggests to me that they are
Speaker 1: the icons of the show. Well, to me, I I've
Speaker 1: only dealt with like a very small sample of the
Speaker 1: show so far. But um, I'm really digging into the
Speaker 1: back catal on. Basically, I'm just the readers know, and
Speaker 1: the readers can tell. The readers can very politely tell
Speaker 1: Matt to to give Matt the survivor syllabus equivalent to fiance.
Speaker 1: I think you would love it, Queen. I'm sure I would,
Speaker 1: And I want to say, especially given what we've seen
Speaker 1: in the last week or so, I wanted to thank
Speaker 1: you for thank theory. Please politely, yes, tell Matt to
Speaker 1: do this, because what I would hate is if you
Speaker 1: incited violence against me. If Bowen Yang got on this
Speaker 1: podcast and said a dog whistle, he will say what
Speaker 1: she says. He says them, and you say a dog
Speaker 1: whistle to all the fans, and then they come for me,
Speaker 1: and then it becomes a real problem. Pig's head on
Speaker 1: my door because I'm not watching fiance. You just called
Speaker 1: the readers fans, which it feels blasphemous to me. We
Speaker 1: ever call them fans. Stupid? Roll back the tape? I
Speaker 1: never said that, girl. Okay, well, I dare you roll
Speaker 1: back the tape? I dare you to move? Um, how
Speaker 1: are you girl? How literally are you? I am? Literally?
Speaker 1: I'm okay, I'm doing I'm doing well. I am I'm
Speaker 1: kind of spiraling in the way that feels useless but necessary.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know how about you? Are
Speaker 1: you spiraling because of the the macro or the micro?
Speaker 1: The macro the micro is great, the micro is. I
Speaker 1: love that the micro is great. I love to hear
Speaker 1: that the vibe is. I'm truly just at home vibing
Speaker 1: out to ninety day fiance. Do you understand? Okay, yes
Speaker 1: I do. I do, and you understand. You know, I
Speaker 1: know what it's like to have a reality show sort
Speaker 1: of saving Yes, so so understand, Matt. But this is
Speaker 1: this is this is a test of the friendship. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, I'm sorry. Can I tell you something? And
Speaker 1: when we come back for another culture catch up, I
Speaker 1: will have watched so much of it. I swear to
Speaker 1: you you because this is the equivalent of you coming
Speaker 1: to me being like you have to watch Survivor. Parverty
Speaker 1: is an icon telling you you have to watch before
Speaker 1: the day is Darcy and Angela are true icons and
Speaker 1: the readers can I'm really excited. I really am excited
Speaker 1: and listen if this will be a personal failing if
Speaker 1: I don't follow, if I don't follow up on this.
Speaker 1: So I literally am going to do it. And it's
Speaker 1: not like I'm doing any thing else. I'm litterally doing
Speaker 1: not fair. It's like Real Housewives of Dallas came back
Speaker 1: and you would think it was fucking American Idol season two.
Speaker 1: I blew up balloons and ship. Seriously, it's like for
Speaker 1: for Rod, I mean, but in spirit, Yes, balloons for Rod.
Speaker 1: That what the people call it is that the h
Speaker 1: D I mean, they don't that. The community kind of
Speaker 1: just says, Dallas, you know what I mean. Not it's
Speaker 1: not like Roni. Rony is the only thing that has that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: pretty much like you're not You're not saying did you
Speaker 1: watch rock rop? Did you catch a rop on Sunday? Which,
Speaker 1: by the way, now it's now we know how it ends. Yeah,
Speaker 1: oh you know what, Monique ms Monique, it's it's not
Speaker 1: there at the end. Well, I don't even this. This
Speaker 1: might be a lot and this will get back to her,
Speaker 1: I'm sure, but like I was like pretty close to
Speaker 1: on following because it's just her like posting ship where
Speaker 1: she's like at a gun range with no mask on
Speaker 1: with like groups of people, and and then the Chris
Speaker 1: the annuals of it all, like them strike sand affecting
Speaker 1: that fucking transphobic comment that he made. I'm like, I
Speaker 1: would not have known that he had made that comment
Speaker 1: if he did not bring it up on the show
Speaker 1: to defend himself. I was like, this is this is
Speaker 1: so unfortunate. It's anyway, I mean, so many elements of
Speaker 1: that comment were bad there came a point during that
Speaker 1: reunion I think it was honestly the transphobic comment, or
Speaker 1: maybe at some some point before that, but I fully
Speaker 1: kind of abandoned moaning towards the end of that, and
Speaker 1: I was like, oh no, this is really I don't
Speaker 1: see her taking accountability for this emotionally in the in
Speaker 1: in a way that's justifiable at all. I was like,
Speaker 1: and it's not that I like Candice More at the
Speaker 1: end of this reunion, but I was like, she is
Speaker 1: the only one it's clear can continue with this show.
Speaker 1: Because yeah, I would say that Chris comment really put
Speaker 1: me over the edge when he said that Bruce Jenner thing.
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, there's just just starting there. Like
Speaker 1: I was like, there's already a lot wrong with this.
Speaker 1: It's a two for it's a two for worried comment.
Speaker 1: Basically for years you don't watch so Chris Samuel's MONI
Speaker 1: Samuel's husband was really was really mad at the other housewives. Basically,
Speaker 1: um he said, I wish I could turn into Bruce
Speaker 1: Jenner so I could like so, so I could like
Speaker 1: any The situation was if only he were a woman,
Speaker 1: he could beat the women's asses that are on the
Speaker 1: cast and it was like, Okay, you can't go there.
Speaker 1: Probably this feels this feels dark on dark on dark,
Speaker 1: It's so many layers of dark. It's like, okay, so
Speaker 1: you want to violently assault these women. A B. You
Speaker 1: are dead naming a trans person to see you are
Speaker 1: saying you are reducing a trans identity to affording you
Speaker 1: the ability to be violent against it's it was. It
Speaker 1: was truly like such a crazy nexus of darkness that
Speaker 1: I was like, and for that reason, I'm out to
Speaker 1: quote our friend Pat Regan and the Sharks, and for
Speaker 1: that reason, I'm no, Yeah, I definitely I wouldn't invest
Speaker 1: in money Samuel's at this point now, um. And I
Speaker 1: say that with a lot of love for her from
Speaker 1: from prior to that, but I just think it says
Speaker 1: a lot about a person that you could sit by
Speaker 1: someone saying that and not make a bigger deal of
Speaker 1: the fact. Like when he when they said to him
Speaker 1: like this comment was unacceptable, he was like, oh, come on,
Speaker 1: you know I wouldn't you know, That's on how I feel,
Speaker 1: and then moved up, moved right on. I was like, no, anyone,
Speaker 1: anyone in their right mind living in the now would
Speaker 1: see themselves saying that and be like, I'm horrified, it's unacceptable,
Speaker 1: and then would close their mouths, probably about all other topics,
Speaker 1: like but he was really on one. It looked very
Speaker 1: badly on her, reflected badly on her rather and I
Speaker 1: was just like, you know what, it's gotten to the
Speaker 1: point where it's these this group of women is never
Speaker 1: gonna mesh again. It's clear they won't film with her.
Speaker 1: And so Samuel's leaves Potomac in bad fashion, terrible fashions.
Speaker 1: The dresses were bad, the color was bad. But you
Speaker 1: and I, you know, had to it. Unfortunately sell low
Speaker 1: on Monique Samuel's and that happens, and that happens, um
Speaker 1: happens all the time. I mean, you know, you know
Speaker 1: whose stock is plummeting Twitter? Like I guess, like I
Speaker 1: don't know. It must have been as a result of
Speaker 1: them banning Trump, but the their stock apparently plummeted. That's
Speaker 1: really too bad. It's really fucking too bad. Should have
Speaker 1: plummeted four years ago, you asked, and I'm talking to
Speaker 1: Jack when I say that, it honestly is so good
Speaker 1: for the world that that happened, Like when when that
Speaker 1: honestly felt like the first moment in the in the
Speaker 1: dissolution of his presidency, or rather the election of President
Speaker 1: elect Biden, that it kind of felt like, oh wow,
Speaker 1: there's gonna be real repercussions for him and he It
Speaker 1: was the first time where I believed like, maybe ultimately
Speaker 1: he will get what he deserved, because I just never
Speaker 1: saw Twitter doing the right thing or all these social
Speaker 1: media platforms doing the right thing, because they literally never have.
Speaker 1: So now that this is happening, I'm kind of like,
Speaker 1: not excited is not the right word, but I'm anticipating
Speaker 1: real fallout for him. The only thing that obviously worries
Speaker 1: me now as we've seen is what's truly apparent is
Speaker 1: that he can go. But the people he's emboldened and
Speaker 1: create and created a new hatred in and a new
Speaker 1: sort of fire in obviously remain. And we had, honestly
Speaker 1: one of the scariest things I can remember watching on television.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you were watching live, but I
Speaker 1: was watching MSNBC. But when this happened at the Capitol,
Speaker 1: I was literally watching when they pulled out um, the
Speaker 1: woman who was shot and killed because she was trying
Speaker 1: to climb in a fucking window at the Capitol in
Speaker 1: a pretty much successful attempt to disrupt democracy. That day,
Speaker 1: I was just like I couldn't fucking believe it. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's so has to be the last thing. But you're
Speaker 1: questioning whether or not that's true. Well, the I think
Speaker 1: I know what you mean in terms of like there
Speaker 1: was um an outcome potentially where like Biden wouldn't have
Speaker 1: prosecuted Trump before the insurrection, Biden wouldn't have prosecrat exactly,
Speaker 1: like maybe they would have just let him go off.
Speaker 1: But now it's like you kind of you kind of
Speaker 1: have to, and it's like in terms of like public opinion,
Speaker 1: it's like you gotta do it. Most people in this
Speaker 1: country want him out at this point. But I'm just saying, like,
Speaker 1: you know, you, like you open up, like Marrick Garland
Speaker 1: future attorney general can start to prosecute everyone in the
Speaker 1: Trump administration specifically at least were at least the ones
Speaker 1: who like had a hand and and sort of like
Speaker 1: inciting all this violence. Um, yeah, Trump, the kids, Giuliani
Speaker 1: and then but then but then the other thing is
Speaker 1: like Trumpism has always been a death call or at
Speaker 1: least like being a Trump supporter has always been being
Speaker 1: in a death cult. But now it's like, if anything,
Speaker 1: if there's any violence in the name of Trump, it
Speaker 1: should become like a national security concern. It should be
Speaker 1: immediately elevated to that level where it's like, okay, like
Speaker 1: the FBI is gonna like truly cut you off at
Speaker 1: every single level, and you're not. You're like all these
Speaker 1: videos of like these fucking idiots being an airport's being
Speaker 1: like I want the no fly list. It's like, yes,
Speaker 1: terrorists because you're a terrorist, because you're a domestic terrorist
Speaker 1: who attempted to disrupt democracy by literally breaking into the
Speaker 1: capital building. And it's just so insane that there are
Speaker 1: still some people that work in our government like that.
Speaker 1: I mean, namely like Senator Cruz, Senator Holly, who should
Speaker 1: both absolutely resign or be kicked the funk out there
Speaker 1: who still want to die on this hill of no
Speaker 1: These people need to be heard, get the fuck out
Speaker 1: of here. It is crazy. And the thing is what's
Speaker 1: happening now is insanely enough. We're starting to divide now
Speaker 1: between bad Republicans and good Republicans, and people are like, oh,
Speaker 1: look look at Lindsay Graham getting hunted down in the airport. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he deserves it. Like, of course, remember that these two
Speaker 1: are beating the drum of like there was still election fraud,
Speaker 1: like and stoking the flames of this and truly inciding
Speaker 1: this at this moment. But don't forget for one second
Speaker 1: that we should not even be anywhere close to this,
Speaker 1: and every single member of the GOP that has gone
Speaker 1: along with this, just do not forget it, Like, don't
Speaker 1: let fucking Mitch McConnell because he's going through with the
Speaker 1: ceremony of it all at the last minute and deciding
Speaker 1: now that it's unacceptable. Don't forget that this all went
Speaker 1: down the way it went down for the last four years,
Speaker 1: five years. At this point, it is such an ugly
Speaker 1: just I think everyone has just been we've been unhealthier
Speaker 1: as human beings absorbing all of this as a result
Speaker 1: of it. It has really damaged all of in our
Speaker 1: souls and like, it's just so fucked up to see
Speaker 1: I'm even like, I'm even like not even forgiving of
Speaker 1: the fucking Murkowski's where I'm like, no is it's a
Speaker 1: completely empty gesture for her to be, like, I might
Speaker 1: not consider being a Republican it's like, fuck you, you clown.
Speaker 1: You voted like you, like you confirmed Barrett, you confirmed
Speaker 1: having a jester. She's a jester. Queen. No one if
Speaker 1: you have aligned yourself with the Republican Party at any part,
Speaker 1: at least, if you've enabled Trump in any way in
Speaker 1: the last four years on that level and on a
Speaker 1: decision making level, if you've been in charge, this is
Speaker 1: this is This is the distinction that I don't care
Speaker 1: on an individual level someone's behavior or someone's like thought
Speaker 1: process necessarily, but when it comes to like you being
Speaker 1: in the fucking Senate and you like constantly Murkowsk is
Speaker 1: a fucking idiot, has always just like she's an idiot.
Speaker 1: Colin just an idiot. But but they've they've come out
Speaker 1: just to like, truly, in my mind, just to seek attention.
Speaker 1: It's there. There's there's no other explanation for it. Why
Speaker 1: is it always the two of them? I mean, for me,
Speaker 1: it's just like I think that they love to like
Speaker 1: flagrantly show how independent they are because they know that
Speaker 1: people where they're from like quote unquote independent thinkers. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: they're literally not independent thinkers. They'll just do whatever is
Speaker 1: expeding at the time, they're essentially like playing a game
Speaker 1: by being where they are. They're just looking assessing situations
Speaker 1: and constantly doing damage control for themselves and scraping by.
Speaker 1: It's so it's just funny that these people consider these
Speaker 1: moderates independent thinkers when they just have the ability to
Speaker 1: swing from the center. So now you have Murkowski being like,
Speaker 1: you know, I might even switch parties. You have no
Speaker 1: fucking kidding who has the majority? Now, don't fall for it.
Speaker 1: It is bullshit. And I think this goes even further
Speaker 1: back than when Trump is Um began and it was
Speaker 1: like get on board or get off, which they all did.
Speaker 1: I think it goes back to and people need to
Speaker 1: be accountable for anyone that was responsible. And a lot
Speaker 1: of people have reckoned with this already and do good
Speaker 1: things quote unquote good to try and help swing a
Speaker 1: Biden victory this time successfully. But if you were checking
Speaker 1: a box that said McCain Palin on it, understand that
Speaker 1: you helped set a precedent that you could put a
Speaker 1: fucking idiot on the ticket who didn't know anything just
Speaker 1: because it was politically expedient and it would cater to
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but the Trump base and don't pretend just
Speaker 1: now to know who they are because you campaigned around
Speaker 1: this country with Sarah Palin and saw the type of
Speaker 1: person that she whipped up, and then you thought that
Speaker 1: would just go away. But no, your party was literally
Speaker 1: set up for someone like Trump to come in. Cult
Speaker 1: of personality takes hold and then we have what we have,
Speaker 1: which is this emboldening of a passionate voting block. And
Speaker 1: it's fun sucking crazy And I'm sorry, but the GOP
Speaker 1: has been a joke my entire lifetime and your entire
Speaker 1: lifetime and proceeding that, because it became a fucking reality show,
Speaker 1: entertainment program, game about power and it's fucked up. And
Speaker 1: I know, I'm just like shouting this out into the
Speaker 1: ether on this podcast because everyone probably agrees, but if
Speaker 1: you don't, you need to sell search. This is like
Speaker 1: so beyond that. We're here. We literally look like a
Speaker 1: crazy movie. It's insane. What's that movie with um the
Speaker 1: guy from Closer, Clive Owen Closer? Closer? We look like Closer.
Speaker 1: We look like Closer. My real name is Jane's Jane?
Speaker 1: Thanks still, Jane. Can we talk about Natalie? Can we
Speaker 1: just take a step Natalie Portman. I have, I have,
Speaker 1: I have a a research paper within me on her.
Speaker 1: I think the goal for this year is to get
Speaker 1: her on the pod. I think it could happen. Oh
Speaker 1: that would be she knows she's a Long Island queen.
Speaker 1: She's a Long Island queen. I think Ms Natalie watches
Speaker 1: S ANDL from home. I'm sure she does, as many
Speaker 1: millions do. I think three time hosts. I think she's
Speaker 1: she's on track. She's fabulous every time, fabulous every time.
Speaker 1: She's on track to join the five timers club within
Speaker 1: the next you know, ten years, hopefully five. Um. Yes,
Speaker 1: she she she can do it and also she's good
Speaker 1: enough to do it. Iconically, Natalie's rap, which we love. Um,
Speaker 1: one of the iconic digital short. Digital short culture is culture.
Speaker 1: Digital culture is capital culture, and that's a rule of
Speaker 1: Culture's culture number nineteen. Digital short culture is habital c culture.
Speaker 1: We we know what. I'm sorry, I'm We're We're sorry,
Speaker 1: We're doing this. We're like booking ahead and we're kind
Speaker 1: of flex singer like access. I think it's wonderful. Trixie
Speaker 1: Mattel is coming on the show next week. Trixie Mattel
Speaker 1: is coming on the show next week. We're so excited. Um.
Speaker 1: She texted Matt the exchange numbers and she said, high legend.
Speaker 1: It's Tracy and it made me laughing. Love, I love
Speaker 1: Tracy Martel. I just want to say, I think Samberg
Speaker 1: Sandberg would would do it and would be great, and
Speaker 1: I think we could really actually I love and he's
Speaker 1: the best, the best in the world. He's such good vibes.
Speaker 1: I think you and I could prepare a really good,
Speaker 1: like an interview that can top like a Maron, like
Speaker 1: a Mark Marin, Terry Gross back. We could we could
Speaker 1: prop up an interview that topped even Maren. We're gonna
Speaker 1: top Marin. We're gonna top Marin. We're gonna top Terry Gross.
Speaker 1: We're gonna play a clip of Adam Driver mission statement
Speaker 1: for the pod mission statement for the top, Mark Martin Marin.
Speaker 1: We're gonna top him. We're gonna top him. I think,
Speaker 1: I think, I think Samberg. I think Sandberg deserves an
Speaker 1: interview from people who have been influenced by him directly,
Speaker 1: like you and I like directed. I'm literally saying he
Speaker 1: is one of my number one communic influences. He is,
Speaker 1: of course, of the same big dumb face school I
Speaker 1: went to UM and it's just like to see him
Speaker 1: succeed being so big. I always loved like the digital
Speaker 1: shorts were always just their own thing, and I just
Speaker 1: he nails it from me every time. And the Lonely
Speaker 1: Islands of Music is actually good, which is something that
Speaker 1: makes me so h word happy happy and credibad is
Speaker 1: so good. Um this the second one, Um, Yes, I
Speaker 1: mean truly wonderful. I did did you see them at
Speaker 1: Clusterfest in San Francisco that year that they were there
Speaker 1: that they did? I went out and watched them, and honestly,
Speaker 1: me seeing them live goes way back because when I
Speaker 1: was at the dorms at n y U, I walked
Speaker 1: to the Best Buyer Union Square where they were they
Speaker 1: were doing like a talk back and just sat in
Speaker 1: the back of the talk back and being smiled at them.
Speaker 1: I was such a huge fan of them. Um. But like, yeah,
Speaker 1: they did a performance at Clusterfest and it was really fun.
Speaker 1: I was like in the outdoor stage. God, I missed
Speaker 1: going to shows home. It's like crippling bitch, honey, I think,
Speaker 1: oh my god, can I just say this is something real, real, real,
Speaker 1: mushy mushy dress, your flop. But first of all, for
Speaker 1: the reader should know that Matt and I our brains
Speaker 1: have evolved over the holidays and get to each other
Speaker 1: again and all we can say to each other get
Speaker 1: ready for a lot of the words flop and jest
Speaker 1: to be flying Jester, you flop, done it again? Flop.
Speaker 1: I hope you don't flop when you're saying this mushy thing,
Speaker 1: go for it, flop flop. I won't flop, because truly,
Speaker 1: this is this is what we're talking about the readers,
Speaker 1: and the readers have been so kind, the best we
Speaker 1: have the best listenership, but a lot of a lot
Speaker 1: of a lot of really nice snow it's being sent
Speaker 1: to us about how they can't wait to see us
Speaker 1: live again whenever that's whenever that may be. And but truly,
Speaker 1: like this is lighting a fire under my something because
Speaker 1: I'm just like, oh, yeah, like you know what the
Speaker 1: priority number one once it's safest for you and I
Speaker 1: did to plan some some some live thing for absolutely
Speaker 1: I want to do like I want to do like
Speaker 1: big shows. I really want to block out time and
Speaker 1: do that. I am like I'm having like wistful memories
Speaker 1: of Oh god, the Bellhouse was just the most fun nights,
Speaker 1: the most funny. They were the most fun nights, absolutely,
Speaker 1: But I'm even saying, like I remember it being so
Speaker 1: stressful at the time, but the touring was actually beautiful.
Speaker 1: I was talking about this um with Nicole Buyer, Oh um, readers,
Speaker 1: fun fun fun um. Why won't you Date me? Bo
Speaker 1: and Yang edition coming in like March I want to say,
Speaker 1: but it was really fun. But Nicole and I were
Speaker 1: just talking about how like touring, like what do you mean,
Speaker 1: oh you mean you did? You did it? Why won't
Speaker 1: you dame me? I did? Why won't you date me?
Speaker 1: And I was like it's the best I was like,
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't realize was like waiting for this,
Speaker 1: you know, and in terms of like not waiting for this,
Speaker 1: like as if I was entitled to it. Not not
Speaker 1: that I'm entitled to like being a guest on that show,
Speaker 1: but I was just like, oh, this is like a
Speaker 1: fun like a little like um, oh yeah, I'm on
Speaker 1: the show that I love to listen to, which I
Speaker 1: do um, And it was just exactly that. No. I
Speaker 1: was just saying, like when I did it, it was
Speaker 1: more of a thing of like, oh, I get to
Speaker 1: do this with Nicole, you know what I mean, Like
Speaker 1: it's just so fun to sit with her and be
Speaker 1: a literally around her. I think that, like she is
Speaker 1: truly one of the funniest, most obvious stars that I know.
Speaker 1: It comes out of her like magic, Like she's just
Speaker 1: she can be funny any time I decay. Yes, it's
Speaker 1: that she's a magic person. She's just a star. She
Speaker 1: just says she's a star. Um. But anyway, we were
Speaker 1: we're dying to do some shows again for people and
Speaker 1: to head up a few places. That's where that's what
Speaker 1: we're sort of manifesting for one right, Jester, I would say,
Speaker 1: Jester would be such a flop if we didn't get
Speaker 1: to do one flop show in front of our what's
Speaker 1: the biggest flop show we've ever done? Honestly, what's what's
Speaker 1: been a flop that we've done? A flop? I know,
Speaker 1: I know, I think you and I oh, I know
Speaker 1: when we flopped. We flopped when when we did a
Speaker 1: show at the Pit as Sluck. We did a show
Speaker 1: at the Pit Underground as Sluck. It was a headlining show.
Speaker 1: It was because we literally were guesting on every show
Speaker 1: in town. There was a time when Bowen and I
Speaker 1: were most busy performing Sluck, which was our if you
Speaker 1: don't know what sluck is, lip sync garbage dance duo
Speaker 1: that were sluts, and we were just putting mixes together
Speaker 1: of like doing slutty songs. We were underwear and crop
Speaker 1: tops and put disgusting makeup on and like basically flopped
Speaker 1: on stage. And people loved how slutty we were, so
Speaker 1: we got booked everywhere, and then we decided we would
Speaker 1: do a two person show, just a headlining show, just
Speaker 1: a half hour of Sluck. One person came, so we
Speaker 1: did a show for her, and I think literally she
Speaker 1: wasn't even trying to come. She was just upstairs for something.
Speaker 1: And we're like, can you watch us perform because it'll
Speaker 1: be literally just me and you because we didn't even
Speaker 1: have a tech. We need to have Amanda back on
Speaker 1: because we owe because that that is right, or die
Speaker 1: something it's not right, or diet. It's like she is,
Speaker 1: she's she's not a fair weather friend. Maybe she wasn't
Speaker 1: even there to see us, but the fact that she
Speaker 1: still sat down as the only person in that audience
Speaker 1: to watch us says everything. Oh so did we. I
Speaker 1: think we put together some new mixes for that we
Speaker 1: had and sluck is not easy to do. Sluck is
Speaker 1: one of the hardest things could do. Beyonce was offered
Speaker 1: sluck and she she passed. She said it's going to
Speaker 1: be too physically taxing. Beyonce passed. It was gonna be
Speaker 1: bowing and Beyonce and thank god she passed on sluck. Well,
Speaker 1: he was that our dream girls. She she was beautiful, amazing.
Speaker 1: Oh that's right. This was This was around two five.
Speaker 1: It wasn't at all. I know, I know me up
Speaker 1: the bit that was a flop? I was gonna say,
Speaker 1: I thought you were asking what was the what was
Speaker 1: a flop? Laws called Theresa's show that we've done, and
Speaker 1: I okay, which one was? Well, I don't fall city, No,
Speaker 1: that I was gonna like disclaim that, like, this is
Speaker 1: not us dragging the city. It's us dragging like the
Speaker 1: way that everything aligned, which was that we were performing
Speaker 1: at an all ages venue and it was and it
Speaker 1: was dry, and I think I think, maybe, well I
Speaker 1: think maybe it is like it was just that we
Speaker 1: were off one night. Maybe I think, can I be honest,
Speaker 1: like it is like every time you do a live show,
Speaker 1: it is a little bit like rolling the dice. But honestly,
Speaker 1: you and I are both live performers, so I've never
Speaker 1: worried about us. But the thing is like with that
Speaker 1: audience in particular, I was doing the show and I
Speaker 1: literally said in my own head, I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: we cannot do this without alcohol involved, like people have
Speaker 1: to be. I feeled that way about like most shows
Speaker 1: I do. I'm like, let's get people a little drunk,
Speaker 1: please dry all ages show in Seattle, I didn't in
Speaker 1: the in the winter. It wasn't popping off, yes, and
Speaker 1: we flopped, so we so I we didn't say this upfront,
Speaker 1: but it was Seattle, and this is not that it's
Speaker 1: not a dig at the city. And in fact, so many,
Speaker 1: so many wonderful people came and remember we got and
Speaker 1: then oh I forgot, I forgot who. But there were
Speaker 1: those two cute boys that we were the second we left.
Speaker 1: Then we were like, we should have talked to them more.
Speaker 1: We should have went out for drinks with them. We
Speaker 1: should have. But they gave us gifts. Those two boys
Speaker 1: gave us gifts, I know, and they also were hot.
Speaker 1: I wonder if they still listen. Well, um, it was
Speaker 1: a wonderful I was a good experience. I'm glad we
Speaker 1: and then you and I got to walk around the
Speaker 1: space needle and that was cute. Yeah, that's basically it
Speaker 1: was cute. I wonder if those boys listen and they
Speaker 1: were on a picture of me nude? Do they want
Speaker 1: to picture of me nude? Would you like one? Do
Speaker 1: you want a picture of men? You have to write this.
Speaker 1: This is a song I'm writing right now. Want picture.
Speaker 1: I think it's a hit. I took an out of
Speaker 1: a right before the episode. Done that too, damn it,
Speaker 1: and it's hitting. Girl. Have some list? Can I tell you, Jester?
Speaker 1: I so, I so we wouldn't flop today. I wrote
Speaker 1: down some topics of things that have happened or happening.
Speaker 1: We're flopping, and so you're consulting the list. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I literally I don't think we're flapping at all. I
Speaker 1: think this is going splendidly. But I really wanted to
Speaker 1: make sure I talked with you about one thing, which
Speaker 1: is why I bring it up. Flop. We pulled ourselves
Speaker 1: out of our flopped them and you watched Jaws and
Speaker 1: I watched the Sound of music, and I want to
Speaker 1: give takes. I want to let the readers know how
Speaker 1: we felt because this is iconic culture that we were
Speaker 1: receiving initially. So we watched, we watched separately, and this
Speaker 1: was a moment for us. Yes, so this was this
Speaker 1: was Bone was sort of live texting me through uh,
Speaker 1: the sound of music. You know you you were you
Speaker 1: were live texting me through sounds of music. I was
Speaker 1: live texting you through Jaws. Well, yes, but sort of
Speaker 1: when you're live texting a person, that person is sort
Speaker 1: of live texting you as well. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's sort of like if we're holding hands, we're both
Speaker 1: holding hands, you know what I mean, one person isn't
Speaker 1: holding hands with the other person. I don't have time
Speaker 1: to get into this, but I have literally no time
Speaker 1: to get into this. But anyway, we were live texting.
Speaker 1: We shared a live text moment about both films, and um,
Speaker 1: I just want to say, how many stars would you
Speaker 1: give Jaws out of five stars? Well? I was just
Speaker 1: really impressed overall with how it still works as like
Speaker 1: a horror movie. And I think it probably set a
Speaker 1: bunch of horror rule, Like it's set a bunch of
Speaker 1: like conventions in horror. Um, I give Jaws four out
Speaker 1: of four and a half stars. Oh my god, and
Speaker 1: so tell us like critic, tell us, critic, what is
Speaker 1: the half star that it's missing? That it just it
Speaker 1: would have been good, but you're taking away this half star.
Speaker 1: I wanted to see. I wanted to see Jaws herself.
Speaker 1: I wanted to see Jaws, not just come try to
Speaker 1: eat the boat. I wanted to see Jaws maybe jump
Speaker 1: out the water into the sky. I wanted to see
Speaker 1: full body Jaws because, like I get it, the technology
Speaker 1: at the time didn't allow it. But I needed to
Speaker 1: see Jaws just to get a full understanding of you
Speaker 1: know what am I? What am I? What am I
Speaker 1: looking at? When I when? When I when I hear
Speaker 1: the word Jaws? And honestly, the town should have been
Speaker 1: called Jaws. And actually no, I have a bone to
Speaker 1: pick with the readers. They think that I really thought
Speaker 1: that the town was called Jaws. I was belly you
Speaker 1: you were lapping hard on and you here you are today.
Speaker 1: Jestre queen trying to say, you know, you know what?
Speaker 1: They could just go back. They have the tape. This
Speaker 1: is Trump is um with this, this is what you do.
Speaker 1: This is a dog whistle to your to your supporters.
Speaker 1: Everyone's being a flop right now, including a hothead of
Speaker 1: content haunts who's saying you're crazy. The movie only works
Speaker 1: because you don't see Jaws. No, I think that you
Speaker 1: are a little crazy. And I think that Bowen is
Speaker 1: like when like what happened when he said, uh, the
Speaker 1: town is called Jaws, sort of just like being a
Speaker 1: little bit controversial on Purpoise. Okay, so you're so, Then
Speaker 1: you're so. Then you're admitting that I wasn't. I was.
Speaker 1: I was being up too. Okay, fine, I can admit
Speaker 1: that I thought the comment was up tu when he
Speaker 1: said the town was called Jaws. I thought to myself, Okay,
Speaker 1: this bitch wants to play. This bitch wants to sort
Speaker 1: of get a little dirty right now. And I gave
Speaker 1: you that, and I've let it go on this long
Speaker 1: um to the point where I can say I knew
Speaker 1: all along was obtus I really did, which is how
Speaker 1: I know you're being bullshit now, because let's bring it
Speaker 1: to what it's really about, which is you talking about
Speaker 1: how the sharks should jump in the sky. You really
Speaker 1: think this bitch, well, bitch you're the one who's inciting
Speaker 1: all of this vitriol. Don't use that trigger word with me.
Speaker 1: Don't you dare whistles? Do you trigger? If you keep triggering,
Speaker 1: you're getting fire. You You don't have that power. Um,
Speaker 1: what did you think of Sound of Music? How many stars?
Speaker 1: How many stars? How many stars would you give to
Speaker 1: sound music? Well, you sort of gave a summation of
Speaker 1: your review and then gave the stars, So I will
Speaker 1: allow myself the same opportunity for suspense. Thank you very much. Okay,
Speaker 1: So I felt that the Sound of Music really showcased
Speaker 1: a star in Julie Andrews. I think that she gave
Speaker 1: a performance for the age. This performance will go down
Speaker 1: in history as a defining one of the musical theater genre.
Speaker 1: She is shining, bright, resplendent, and when her heartbreaks, so
Speaker 1: does yours. And she's able, in merely short scenes to
Speaker 1: sort of foster a connection with so many of the
Speaker 1: children that you feel and are invested in, and you
Speaker 1: can follow her emotionally and you feel her conflict, which
Speaker 1: is she wants to be a nun? Right doesn't she
Speaker 1: want to be a nun? And then this other worldly
Speaker 1: feeling comes in and that feeling is romantic love and
Speaker 1: she feels it with Captain von Trapp, who is a
Speaker 1: difficult person because he's lost in his life. He has
Speaker 1: lost and he's got a lot of responsibility and he's
Speaker 1: got a lot of kids to take care of, and
Speaker 1: so he is a little bit by the book and
Speaker 1: you know what, yes, he is in gauge to the Baroness.
Speaker 1: What did you think of the Barrenness. I thought that
Speaker 1: she presented a case for his best character in the
Speaker 1: film history. I thought she presented a case when the
Speaker 1: Barreness came in and you see her connection with Mr
Speaker 1: Max or Miss Max as we say, that was a
Speaker 1: fully realized relationship. And you know what, I feel that,
Speaker 1: you know, the Barrenness is not a villain in this, okay,
Speaker 1: because she is just playing her lot in life, and
Speaker 1: she is in love and she is heartbroken. But the
Speaker 1: fact of the matter is the relationship of Captain von
Speaker 1: Trapp and Maria is a force of nature and it
Speaker 1: changes the course of their lives. And because of that
Speaker 1: love and teamwork, they're able to make a real family
Speaker 1: in the Von Traps and they are the family von Traps,
Speaker 1: and as a team and as a unit, they are
Speaker 1: able to escape the nazis. The greatest love triumphed over
Speaker 1: the greatest evil in the film the sound of music,
Speaker 1: And there are temptations along the way because Lisi, she
Speaker 1: is feeling she's one of the most important supporting characters
Speaker 1: in all films. She is feeling this pull too. But
Speaker 1: it is towards Rolf, who is a Nazi. And it
Speaker 1: has to be said, plane, Plane, Ralf is a Nazi.
Speaker 1: So every time we're doing you are sixteen going on
Speaker 1: seven to understand, this is the song of a Nazi.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. So it's a Nazi saying, baby, it's time
Speaker 1: to think. When a Nazi tells you, baby, it's time
Speaker 1: to think, you better run the other way. You better
Speaker 1: get out and log off parlor. Oh wait, it's offline
Speaker 1: because Amazon stopped hosting it. Okay, so yes, I did
Speaker 1: say several times while watching this, this feels very prescient.
Speaker 1: Now I did say that, But you know what, Ultimately,
Speaker 1: not only is this dynamic story incredible and yes, good
Speaker 1: does triumph, but the music was incredible. Music was incredible.
Speaker 1: It Wise, we never stopped crying at that song. I
Speaker 1: give the film five stars out of the Sound of
Speaker 1: Out of five. I give the film five stars. Sound
Speaker 1: of Music was incredible, musical feet of filmmaking. I'm so
Speaker 1: happy I watched it the way my sister was the
Speaker 1: opposite of a jester, opposite of a flop, a soaring king.
Speaker 1: In that review of the Sound of Music, and that
Speaker 1: you can't love yourself enough to give Jaws five stars,
Speaker 1: that's right. During a tender moment, I will honey, you
Speaker 1: need you have a personal problem. This scale the it's
Speaker 1: four I was. I gave it four out a four
Speaker 1: and a half stars, So the full I don't I
Speaker 1: don't care to do the math right now, but it's
Speaker 1: almost five stars. It's more than I'm giving it. I'm
Speaker 1: giving it more than four and a half. Starting now,
Speaker 1: you said the flaw was that the shark didn't fly
Speaker 1: in the sky. That's what you said, he did not.
Speaker 1: I assure you she get it right, because that was
Speaker 1: a girl. Boss if I saw was a girl girl
Speaker 1: if and that's a rule of culture number ninety two,
Speaker 1: Jaws was a girl if I've ever seen one. Can
Speaker 1: you talk about the way that the Sound of Music
Speaker 1: is a breezy three hours. I didn't think about the length, bitch,
Speaker 1: I'm out here. He constantly thinking about the length of movies.
Speaker 1: When I mean, what did I watch, Oh, Soul Girl,
Speaker 1: Why it wasn't even honestly that long. But halfway through
Speaker 1: I was like, groo, why am I only here? It
Speaker 1: was just some movies are so long. This movie was
Speaker 1: such a classic. I just I was in it, and
Speaker 1: also I was prepared and happy for the event of
Speaker 1: the film. Yes, yes, oh, because it was an event
Speaker 1: for you. You you you found it on your little
Speaker 1: TV app instead we're doing this. I saw it there.
Speaker 1: I saw it standing there, and I said, this is
Speaker 1: the moment. And I'm so happy that you followed up
Speaker 1: that moment with the undertaking that is watching Jaws also
Speaker 1: a long film. Well Jaws, I would say, if there's
Speaker 1: a if there's a half start to be knocked off.
Speaker 1: It is the very true fact that it feels lengthy. Well,
Speaker 1: it was lengthy, and yet it moved at an incredible
Speaker 1: it And you had told me about the Quinn monologue.
Speaker 1: The Quinn monologue, Robert Shaw, amazing the acting, that amazing acting,
Speaker 1: truly amazing acting. Richard Dreyfuss giving you hot scientists. You
Speaker 1: were attracted, Yes, very deeply. I love someone's knowledge, and
Speaker 1: so I guess that goes for Quint to Quinn, it's
Speaker 1: some knowledge. The person who didn't really have knowledge was
Speaker 1: the Roy Scheider character. I was like, you know, but
Speaker 1: he was the hot one. I felt he was hot,
Speaker 1: but he didn't know anything. He knew how, he knew
Speaker 1: how to like work the boat kind of, but other
Speaker 1: than that he was he was more just having a
Speaker 1: good spirit. I was just kind of shocked at how
Speaker 1: filmic Jaws was. I'm like, they don't make movies. They
Speaker 1: don't make big, big budget movies like this anymore. That
Speaker 1: was the seventies and you had you had, like, you know,
Speaker 1: Roy Scheider doing like the making the faces with his son.
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, you don't, like that would never happen
Speaker 1: in a budget movie nowadays. Yeah. It's almost like how
Speaker 1: the original Star Wars kind of seems way more authentic
Speaker 1: than the ones that came out right, like the episode one, two,
Speaker 1: and three, the ones with Natalie Um, because the special
Speaker 1: effects took it's so to cartoon world that that disparity
Speaker 1: between the live action and the c G. I just
Speaker 1: kind of people lost it, lost something something um. And
Speaker 1: then watching the old ones, you're kind of just like,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, like this is a real I'm more um
Speaker 1: invested in the stakes for them because it feels like
Speaker 1: that thing is a part of their world, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like the tractor, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: like might crush them, the trash compact or whatever. Now
Speaker 1: it's like so much around that time it was any
Speaker 1: although I did text you that over Christmas, I did
Speaker 1: watch episode nine for the first time, and I thoroughly
Speaker 1: enjoyed it. The newer ones I actually think are better
Speaker 1: because everything about them is so heightened. That's why whenever
Speaker 1: anyone even compares like the Daisy Realley ones to the
Speaker 1: Markhama ones, I'm like, they're completely different. Like it's never
Speaker 1: going to live up to the nostalgia and love you're
Speaker 1: gonna have for something that was made during that time
Speaker 1: with a child, when movies were made differently and when
Speaker 1: you had child's eyes, Like except these movies for what
Speaker 1: they are, which are four children like fantasy, whatever's They're
Speaker 1: never gonna be like smarter than anything else. They just
Speaker 1: have to entertain and make choices. And it seems like
Speaker 1: people get mad at the new ones because they make
Speaker 1: choices instead of Arns repeating and they do make choices,
Speaker 1: and I truly loved like the the like wild nous
Speaker 1: in like Adam Driver's spoiler alert making out with Daisy
Speaker 1: Ridley at the end before he oh, Like I'm like,
Speaker 1: this is so funny and crazy and like and what
Speaker 1: other and what other movie would this happen? And if
Speaker 1: not Star Wars right now? And literally it was dragged.
Speaker 1: It was, yes, sure it was. It was like that's
Speaker 1: what I kept saying. It was camp And that's why
Speaker 1: I liked it because Terry Russell in that offense to
Speaker 1: me was camp. It is camp. You never see Garry
Speaker 1: Russell's face and um, it's like the movie is crazy.
Speaker 1: It's a cooly crazy and Babbu Frick get out icon
Speaker 1: icon one of the most stunning, sexually stunning men in
Speaker 1: the world. Yes, but Babbo Frick. But this is this
Speaker 1: is this is everyone's issue with them Episode eight, which
Speaker 1: is not like I don't think it's the greatest Star
Speaker 1: Wars movie. It deserves some sort of flowers for the
Speaker 1: way that it made choices with fucking Laura durn saying
Speaker 1: pup you and then like comic casing and start destroyer
Speaker 1: like yeah, and you know what you have you have
Speaker 1: to think of it as a choice, because I mean
Speaker 1: she she did say pu pew, she said Pepe, and
Speaker 1: they kept it and they kept it and they kept
Speaker 1: it and kept it. Yes, yeah, I believe it was
Speaker 1: there on purpose. Okay that I'll always say that Peter
Speaker 1: was there on purpose, and so is that Starbucks cup.
Speaker 1: I think they wanted the conversation. I think that their
Speaker 1: entertainment industry people first and foremost, and they had us
Speaker 1: talking girl. Um. But yes, I genuinely loved pretty much
Speaker 1: everything about the last one, and I liked the Last
Speaker 1: Jedi because what I loved about the last Yes, the
Speaker 1: Last Jedi was when the reveal was she's when she
Speaker 1: realized that she was no one, she was not actually
Speaker 1: connected to the mythology. And I love that because it
Speaker 1: made a choicely about her, like that they weren't going
Speaker 1: to give us this fan service. But then it was
Speaker 1: funny because when when that when the next movie came out,
Speaker 1: I was gagging for the fan service. I'm like, yes,
Speaker 1: she's the granddaughter of Palpatine. Actually it's like think that
Speaker 1: that man had children. Anyway, it's at that point I
Speaker 1: was just like, yes, queen. And when when they were
Speaker 1: looking at each other and I was like, they better
Speaker 1: kiss that. How is how this pays off? And then
Speaker 1: they did and then he died. Incredible. Get we respect
Speaker 1: the drama of that. It was soap opera level. And
Speaker 1: that's because that's what they are. That's what they are.
Speaker 1: And I have to commend the fight sequences. I mean
Speaker 1: when they when they trade off the lightsaber or just
Speaker 1: or just any time they had they would like go
Speaker 1: into different sets like I was just like, this must
Speaker 1: have been a night murder shoot and they pulled it off.
Speaker 1: So I was just like genuinely impressed. I was also
Speaker 1: stoned and I was watching this and I was like, wow,
Speaker 1: I'm having a great time. Do you know that? You
Speaker 1: know how my experience of seeing it. Me and Matt
Speaker 1: Whittaker went to a forty X theater and I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: the seats move. It is a theme park. I kid
Speaker 1: you not. When we sit down, Matt is like a
Speaker 1: little fit sensitive like motion sickness is not not difficult
Speaker 1: for him to get, I guess. So he was like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, and I was like, please, let's try.
Speaker 1: So the very first thing that happens, and it's insane
Speaker 1: to think about this now in the Age of Corona
Speaker 1: is they blast you with water from the seat in
Speaker 1: front of you, like just water blast in your face
Speaker 1: from this strange chair and just to show off what
Speaker 1: they can do in the beginning, and like the surround
Speaker 1: side is going and the chair is moving and you're like,
Speaker 1: oh my god. And then the movie starts and it's
Speaker 1: literally like someone walks into frame and the chair goes
Speaker 1: like you turned to face them. It's like you're really
Speaker 1: moving like a simulator. We've talked about this because I
Speaker 1: had the same experience with Julio Torres when we saw
Speaker 1: him Leftist and mrss of evil? But did you? Did you?
Speaker 1: And I also do this. I think we did this
Speaker 1: in Vancouver when we watched Alda Battle Angel. Oh oh
Speaker 1: my god. Well we only made it through half of that.
Speaker 1: We were sorry to say we walked out of that movie. Um,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't because the movie was bad. We found
Speaker 1: out I got the job at the other two and
Speaker 1: then we went to go have drinks. Um, we were
Speaker 1: just like talk this movie. But I think weren't those
Speaker 1: seats were There's also like forty X equivalent seats for
Speaker 1: like they were rumbling, but they weren't. I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: I would remember if it was what this was, because
Speaker 1: it was like literally like by the time there was
Speaker 1: battles happening at the end, it was over. It was
Speaker 1: like hour And I will say Matt Witwaker Sweet Angels
Speaker 1: stayed in the chair the whole time. Angel the best um.
Speaker 1: But it was definitely a way to experience that movie
Speaker 1: because like it's just so funny, because even emotional beats
Speaker 1: get like that, like huge battles get. But anyways, I'm
Speaker 1: so happy that we enriched ourselves with that culture in
Speaker 1: this way, you see, being more Star Wars girl, I
Speaker 1: might have to get on this Mandalorian. I am opening,
Speaker 1: I am truly, I'm I'm the king. I'm saying we
Speaker 1: Hans asked, did you both see Tenant? We did not
Speaker 1: see Tenant. No, I don't think that I need to
Speaker 1: be in the right man. Maybe I'll maybe I'll take
Speaker 1: an edible and watch Tenants and sometime soon. I watched
Speaker 1: Jumanji last night and got my fucking life. The original
Speaker 1: Jumanj original, the o G And let's just say this,
Speaker 1: Kirsten Dunns gives a performance. We've talked about this and
Speaker 1: then the grocery store with the taser with is oh
Speaker 1: price check. But her iconic moments are like in the
Speaker 1: beginning of the movie, like their parents have died. They
Speaker 1: just died, they died in a car crash. But her
Speaker 1: character's thing is every new person she meets, she has
Speaker 1: a monologue about the insane way they die, like she
Speaker 1: makes them up. She crushes every single one of them. Also,
Speaker 1: the way that she experiences fear and suspense is she
Speaker 1: is an innate talent. She was such a good child actress.
Speaker 1: She's got a point. She's an icon, she's a legend, agend,
Speaker 1: the moment, and she is the moment. Now, come on, now,
Speaker 1: come on now. Another exclusive way Boone and I have
Speaker 1: been communicating recently is in that Wendy Williams quote and
Speaker 1: then and then it opened up the gates to another
Speaker 1: video that we shared with each other where it was
Speaker 1: a compilation video of Wendy Williams is quote most controversial
Speaker 1: moment and it's her truly saying wild things in the world. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just why don't you go watch it? You guys, go
Speaker 1: watch it. But we don't need to repeat her words.
Speaker 1: This is one other thing that the readers have been
Speaker 1: sort of striding about, which is we do have to
Speaker 1: give thoughts on everymore. We have literally not talked about
Speaker 1: it since it's been and I think that that we're
Speaker 1: actually working out a little bit of a deficit here,
Speaker 1: because I'm gonna ask you this question and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: respect you enough to think you're going to give an
Speaker 1: honest answer. Have you listened to it? Really? I've only
Speaker 1: given it three full listens? Wow? Can I tell you
Speaker 1: I've only gotten through it like four or five times.
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Maybe I'm still living
Speaker 1: in folklore Land. But what I ended up doing was
Speaker 1: I made like a I listened to it a few
Speaker 1: times and I was like, these are the songs that
Speaker 1: are grabbing me, and I put those in with my
Speaker 1: favorite songs from folklore, and I made folk more and
Speaker 1: I like my version of it. So I like some
Speaker 1: of the songs a lot like I really like Willow
Speaker 1: Love Willow. I've been listening to Willow a lot dancing,
Speaker 1: which remix Elvira, Nobody, No Crime. I know I like it,
Speaker 1: you don't, I don't. I don't think it works. I
Speaker 1: don't think I see they were going for the goodbuyeer
Speaker 1: all with time, and it just it didn't. It didn't click.
Speaker 1: I is I think anytime you listen to a Taylor
Speaker 1: Swift album, it isn't it's it's emotional listening. And what
Speaker 1: I mean by that it's like in terms of, like,
Speaker 1: you know, the way the emotional is used. The word
Speaker 1: emotional is used in terms of like, oh, it's emotional marketing,
Speaker 1: it's emotional tech, it's emotional this. It's like, you know,
Speaker 1: you like the the idea that you feel something as
Speaker 1: you listen to a record is is like part of
Speaker 1: Taylor's whole ethos. And the fact that Folklore coming out
Speaker 1: was huge. I think we're both literally in the cardigans.
Speaker 1: We're wearing the Cardians. I feel like Evermore being announced
Speaker 1: and dropped within like within twenty four hours. When she
Speaker 1: announced it, I was just kind of like maybe it
Speaker 1: was the holidays and it was just busy, and I
Speaker 1: just I didn't have the room and my emotional real
Speaker 1: estate to be like I'm gonna listen to the Taylor
Speaker 1: Swift album. And but maybe, like honestly, it was it
Speaker 1: was a couple of people being like, I hope it's
Speaker 1: not folklore B sides, and then it kind of just
Speaker 1: saying that alone colored my expectations going in and being like,
Speaker 1: this is just gonna be folklore B sides, which I
Speaker 1: don't think it is. Ultimately it is not folklore B sides,
Speaker 1: It's it has its Yeah. I just I just nothing
Speaker 1: will shock me in the same way that Folklore did. Um.
Speaker 1: There was such a turn into something different, and I
Speaker 1: do think as a body of work, Folklore is stronger now.
Speaker 1: Haven't listened to it more. Um, but there's some really
Speaker 1: good songs here, like the Love Champagne Problems. I love
Speaker 1: Champagne Problems, and I had to listen to it a
Speaker 1: few times to really understand what it was. But now
Speaker 1: that I do, I just like, Ah, I love that
Speaker 1: song so much. Just who she's this is what I
Speaker 1: love about her. She's able to tell a specific story
Speaker 1: like I just think that's something I've loved about these
Speaker 1: two albums is her sort of return to real storytelling.
Speaker 1: And even with Nobody No Crime, the reason I like
Speaker 1: it is because it's actually really specific and she is.
Speaker 1: It feels inventive but also familiar, um, which is another
Speaker 1: thing that she's really good at. I love gold Rush.
Speaker 1: I had to listen to it a few times to
Speaker 1: understand the trend, to like understand and like the transition
Speaker 1: from the verse and to the chorus because it is stark.
Speaker 1: But once I got into it, it's that song is
Speaker 1: a vibe And my other favorite is Tolerated because again
Speaker 1: she got really specific with the lyrics. Yeah, that's a
Speaker 1: track five baby Ivy Marjorie Cowboy like me, um, I
Speaker 1: like Dorothea. I mean, it's a great album. It's a
Speaker 1: great I just I just it's tough for me to
Speaker 1: like think about it in a vacuum or just separately
Speaker 1: because some on the heels. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I
Speaker 1: will say I'm still like bumping the songs from folklore
Speaker 1: in ways that I didn't used to. Like now every
Speaker 1: song that it's familiar for me, Like I'm it's like
Speaker 1: I'm raging every time, Like when the Last Great American
Speaker 1: Dynasty plays around me, there's nothing else happening in the world.
Speaker 1: I fucking love that song. And she ultimately did add
Speaker 1: to her insane catalog with these oh yeah albums. They're
Speaker 1: so good. I mean, oh, you need to watch this
Speaker 1: friend label its series by the way, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I've been meeting too, and like, uh, I did watch
Speaker 1: some of it, but um, it looks incredible, it's great. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of readers have watched it and
Speaker 1: especially like it's it's coming perfectly like ten years after
Speaker 1: um public speaking, which was like the Scorsese doc from HBO,
Speaker 1: I was telling you, like, it's like taking me back
Speaker 1: to college days when like I thought I was the
Speaker 1: coolest fucking person in the world for like reading like
Speaker 1: Metropolitan Life and being like I love frandle Bwitz. She's
Speaker 1: an epigrammist whatever. But she she has this thing that
Speaker 1: is blown my She says this thing in the new
Speaker 1: series on Netflix that's blow my mind, which is that
Speaker 1: she's like society loves like no one is more loved
Speaker 1: in society than musicians. And then Scorsese is like, yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: like and then she's like and the reason why is
Speaker 1: because like, music is something that like you listen to
Speaker 1: the music that you like, you listen to and you're
Speaker 1: immediately happier, um at least like at least for like
Speaker 1: specific if you're going for that experience, like that's what
Speaker 1: if you're if you're looking to get that out of
Speaker 1: the music you want to listen to, that's what you
Speaker 1: get She's like, I grew up with Motown. Anytime a
Speaker 1: Motown song comes on, I'm immediately happier. Do I think
Speaker 1: it's the best music ever written compared to like Mozart, No,
Speaker 1: But in terms of like the chemical change that happens
Speaker 1: in my brain when I listen to a Motown song,
Speaker 1: music is like drugs that aren't bad. When she's like,
Speaker 1: it's the only thing in the world that is that
Speaker 1: makes you immediately happier and it's not bad for you,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh my god, She's right, And that's why.
Speaker 1: That's why stand culture is the thing we could we
Speaker 1: talk about like it's crazy that like stands or like
Speaker 1: this passionate about their like they're idols. But it's like, no,
Speaker 1: this is why. It's because like you put on a
Speaker 1: song and it like changes your mood. I know, I
Speaker 1: know we're saying something very I'm saying something very basic,
Speaker 1: but it's like that is the whole Like it's kind
Speaker 1: of changed my approach and how I listen to music
Speaker 1: now because now I'm just like me, I want to
Speaker 1: feel good. Let me put on levitating my duelipa. You know.
Speaker 1: It's like that's like the thing anyway, you gotta watch it. No, no,
Speaker 1: I'm I also think it's funny that if stand culture
Speaker 1: feels new, because literally there has always been stand culture,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, going back to the Beatles,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, when there was a mania
Speaker 1: about people as as long as people were able to
Speaker 1: know about music, there was an opportunity to be fanatical
Speaker 1: about it and go to extremes and act abnormal because
Speaker 1: you love the music so much. Like and that's the
Speaker 1: way like girls passing out because they see the Beatles
Speaker 1: because they got so hyperventilating to that state. Um that's
Speaker 1: like the equivalent of someone like popping off on Twitter nowadays.
Speaker 1: Like that's how that energy is being um expelled. So
Speaker 1: it's just interesting that like we've found a way as
Speaker 1: a society to like target that energy at each other.
Speaker 1: It's so crazy that like even fandom is weaponized in culture. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: I mean she has you have to you. I mean
Speaker 1: this is the second episode where she just talks about culture,
Speaker 1: and it's like it's so funny, like someone in the audience,
Speaker 1: like it cuts to a lot of like talkbacks that
Speaker 1: she's done or speaking engagements that she's done, and someone's like, fan,
Speaker 1: how do you develop a sense of humor? And she's
Speaker 1: like the same way when develops height. Like she's just
Speaker 1: so like she's just like I don't know, she just
Speaker 1: the delivery is always impeccable. That's that's the thing that people.
Speaker 1: She is a singular person. Yeah. Well, it's like Josh
Speaker 1: Sharp and I were talking about it's like she's like
Speaker 1: she's a comedian and like she like she delivers, she
Speaker 1: sings it in and it's like, oh yeah, like she
Speaker 1: she knows how to like make something pop and hit
Speaker 1: the ear right. Her character is amazing and also she
Speaker 1: is really I mean, I love There's a story she
Speaker 1: said recently about or not a story, just something she
Speaker 1: was saying recently about how, um, you know what the
Speaker 1: AIDS crisis, and so she says, like, you know, it
Speaker 1: wasn't the people that were like the I hate that.
Speaker 1: It doesn't it doesn't feel right coming out of my mouth.
Speaker 1: But she was like, uncool people did not die of
Speaker 1: AIDS is basically what she was saying. And that because
Speaker 1: that's the case, all the good art, all the interesting
Speaker 1: stuff was gone and it was filled in the culture
Speaker 1: with people that were second rate, which is why she
Speaker 1: says culture is second rate now. She says that if
Speaker 1: her friends that she knew back in the eighties were
Speaker 1: alive today, that she'd be like, guess who's a star now?
Speaker 1: And they would laugh for hours that who's a star
Speaker 1: and who's popular? Because like the best of the best
Speaker 1: were lost to that NEIDS epidemic. It is like, I
Speaker 1: think she has gotten flaking passed for for that specific
Speaker 1: like take, but because it's an insane take, but also
Speaker 1: it is there's interesting, there's a kernel of something there.
Speaker 1: My favorite friand thing when she goes, um, she's like
Speaker 1: the worst thing that happened in New York say, She's like,
Speaker 1: you know, like the city was bankrupt in the seventies
Speaker 1: and in the in the eighties, and like three people
Speaker 1: got together in a room and said, let's let's fix
Speaker 1: that by having people come by, like building these tourist attractions.
Speaker 1: And she's like, that's the worst thing that's that's ever
Speaker 1: happened in the city. Because she goes there's she goes,
Speaker 1: there's no way that you have a bunch of hillbillies.
Speaker 1: These are her where she goes, there are no way
Speaker 1: that there's no way that a bunch of Hillbillies descending
Speaker 1: on a city does not impact the city itself, there's
Speaker 1: no way, and so like and so She'll be like,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm walking down the street. I'll be walking
Speaker 1: down the street and I'll hear tourists say things like,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, that restaurant where the waiters saying that I
Speaker 1: hated that, And She's like, you hated that, then tell us.
Speaker 1: If you hated that, then tell us, because we built
Speaker 1: that for you. So if you hate that, then we
Speaker 1: can take that down and replace it with something that
Speaker 1: we need. Like she's like, you know what, Times Square
Speaker 1: needs a butcher shop. She's like, Time Square does it
Speaker 1: need like a museum like Ripley's believe it or not,
Speaker 1: it needs like like a place to send the man else.
Speaker 1: She's like, it's it's adversely affected New York City in
Speaker 1: the way that like it has become because New York
Speaker 1: didn't used to be a tourist attraction in the past.
Speaker 1: You know what does that face? Yeah? You know, I'm
Speaker 1: literally just I'm writhing thinking about when I used to
Speaker 1: work at the Ride and we would go through Times
Speaker 1: Square and the script was like this was all changed
Speaker 1: by Rudy Giulianne like like it just gave him so
Speaker 1: much credit over having that like times squarifying of New
Speaker 1: York And I'm just thinking about Rudy Giuliani and I'm seething.
Speaker 1: I'm like sitting here thinking, Wow, this is the worst person.
Speaker 1: I think if I could target one worst person in
Speaker 1: my lifetime, it might be him, just like, just in
Speaker 1: terms of public figures that I've despised for the longest.
Speaker 1: He is up there because I don't love you. You
Speaker 1: have to direct your ire at people who have decision
Speaker 1: making power. That that is the thing. It's like, I
Speaker 1: don't really give a ship at this point, whether or not,
Speaker 1: Um I don't. I don't get angry at someone like
Speaker 1: some lay person who like says or does something stupid
Speaker 1: unless exactly unless they're really harmful. Yeah yeah, anyway, Um,
Speaker 1: what else is on your list? Flop? Are we flopping? No,
Speaker 1: we're actually we're actually slang. I mean we should probably
Speaker 1: just say, um, drag race is back, and it is good.
Speaker 1: I am grateful that it's back. I have been on
Speaker 1: a journey with drags from like, and I think I
Speaker 1: speak for a lot of people who are like, it's
Speaker 1: the gloot of it is too much we've watched too
Speaker 1: much Drag Race Canada, Holland Season twelve, All Stars five,
Speaker 1: like it's too much. Make it go away for as
Speaker 1: long as possible, and then truly only like four months
Speaker 1: past and all of a sudden, Season thirteen's back on
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh my god, thank God, thank God.
Speaker 1: But literally, I will say this, I think this for me,
Speaker 1: I'll just be honest. When Season eleven happened and I
Speaker 1: didn't think it was a good season, I kind of
Speaker 1: said to myself, like, Okay, like a bad season of
Speaker 1: it is possible because it has been on for a
Speaker 1: long time, and that's just something that happens to shows
Speaker 1: that have been on for a long time, like they
Speaker 1: lose an edge. But I will say this, I feel
Speaker 1: like the show has come back and it's really found
Speaker 1: a way to like give it an edge. I love
Speaker 1: the premiere and shout out to Dave Mazzoni, who was
Speaker 1: involved in the creative for the season um and I
Speaker 1: love the way that like there were six full lips
Speaker 1: things because that's really what you want to see, is
Speaker 1: you want to see them perform. I know this wasn't
Speaker 1: popular with the fandom, but for me, I was living
Speaker 1: that we were getting someone's performances and it felt like isolated.
Speaker 1: We got to know everyone that's going to be on
Speaker 1: the show, which is what I loved. And you see
Speaker 1: you see them do in some essential way and that
Speaker 1: like I mean, this is not for me to say
Speaker 1: as someone who doesn't perform dragging, but it's like some
Speaker 1: essence of dragged. I take it back, I was gonna
Speaker 1: say some essence of dragons, Like it's it's just lip
Speaker 1: thinking like that is like it's part of the It's
Speaker 1: like it's like it's baked into like the and you know,
Speaker 1: the drag queen direction of it. It's it's baked into
Speaker 1: the female impersonation aspect of dragging where it's like you
Speaker 1: lip thinking. So I enjoyed it. I enjoyed. I love
Speaker 1: Premire a lot. I love these queens. I think there's
Speaker 1: some really good ones. Um even the quote unquote filler queens.
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, I like them, Like I love that
Speaker 1: they I mean I love that they kept Elliott. I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh great, and like I really grew to Elliott really
Speaker 1: grew on me actually, Like but when they did the
Speaker 1: Winners episode, the second episode, Elliott during that episode really
Speaker 1: grew on. Mean, do I think Elliott has fucking nailed
Speaker 1: it every single time? No, I think some of the
Speaker 1: looks are I don't get are they're just maybe a
Speaker 1: little bit like broad um. But ru seems to really
Speaker 1: like Elliott style. I didn't mind her entrance look where
Speaker 1: it was just like late eighties or it was just
Speaker 1: like a saved It was like saved by the bell.
Speaker 1: I was I was cute. Yeah, it was like saved
Speaker 1: by the bell, like she could go into aerobics at
Speaker 1: any minute type of aesthetic um. And for me, I
Speaker 1: was just like, that's your entrance look like I I
Speaker 1: like a high impact because for me, it's like you're
Speaker 1: a drag queen. You're on drag race, do it? You
Speaker 1: know what I mean, like go for it, show show off,
Speaker 1: like it's your moment. And she comes in wearing that,
Speaker 1: It's like okay. But I thought that who had a
Speaker 1: really good high impact look was Candy Muse. I just
Speaker 1: loved that. It was very New York. It was very
Speaker 1: Candy mus very because she is formerly House of Ager.
Speaker 1: She was like a big New York deal, are Brooklyn
Speaker 1: deal as well? And she was just like was so
Speaker 1: herself and I loved the boom Box, and I just
Speaker 1: loved the way she got to pres it on and
Speaker 1: off with the song. I don't know, I loved it.
Speaker 1: I really like her personality. I think it's time. I
Speaker 1: think it might be time, and that time when we
Speaker 1: sort of say it's time refers to I don't think so.
Speaker 1: Mm hmmm mm hm is I guess what would what
Speaker 1: would you say? It's a segment where, um, we each
Speaker 1: take one minute to really get something in gulture. Um, yeah,
Speaker 1: well you'll see you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I would say, yeah, it's it's very self exponatory once
Speaker 1: to happen. You do have something I do, I do
Speaker 1: have something. This is Matt Rodgers. I don't think so honey,
Speaker 1: and his time starts now. I don't think so honey.
Speaker 1: Felt cute? Will delete later or might delete later. I
Speaker 1: hate this. If it's cute coming from why would you
Speaker 1: delete it? We follow you, We would assume to see
Speaker 1: cute slash funny slash attractive slash appealing things. Why would
Speaker 1: you delete it if it's cute? If you're embarrassed to
Speaker 1: be indulgent on the platform, I got news for you,
Speaker 1: but you have the wrong platform. I don't think so
Speaker 1: funny these people that are making me follow a drum
Speaker 1: matic narrative in my life that I did not ask for.
Speaker 1: I did not turn you on, darling, to follow the
Speaker 1: narrative of the will they won't they between you and
Speaker 1: the status deletion. I don't need another bullshit nothing narrative
Speaker 1: to follow. I watched too many seasons and series of
Speaker 1: Housewives for that felt. Cutem, delete later. No, bitch, be brave,
Speaker 1: be bold, keep up the thing you posted for attention
Speaker 1: the first time. I don't think any of this. And
Speaker 1: that's one minute. I you do this, I do this,
Speaker 1: and I can't disagree with you. Does it annoy you?
Speaker 1: I feel like it's just a tug of war. It's
Speaker 1: it's no you know what, Yes it does. I was
Speaker 1: going to back off, but in annoys, just think of
Speaker 1: another caption. It's so filler. It's filler. Queen's status it's flop,
Speaker 1: it's flop. I mean for me, it's just that I
Speaker 1: feel self conscious, and I'm like, no, I'll take this off, girl. No,
Speaker 1: proudly put up everything you want to put up. I'm
Speaker 1: so I'm telling you, if you if you posted it,
Speaker 1: if you hit post on it. You wanted people to
Speaker 1: see it, so stand by your decision. You're right decision.
Speaker 1: I'm a jest or Look, I'm not gonna lie to you.
Speaker 1: In your life, you've done gest or things. You've done
Speaker 1: flop things. Remember that my son Kitson I sweatshirt that
Speaker 1: you bought when we could not afford that. I thought
Speaker 1: that was a flop. I did not like that. You
Speaker 1: believe I was. I was kind of purjuring some stuff
Speaker 1: from my closet, and that that flop sweatshirt has been
Speaker 1: hanging in my closet on a felt hanger for years.
Speaker 1: I have not worn it once. It does not fit
Speaker 1: on me anymore because it's just shrunk. I've not watched

Speaker 1: even in the Hall of Fame. I would I honestly,
Speaker 1: I almost wish you had kept it. I want it. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: no, no no, it's not I mean, I'm sure like this
Speaker 1: was someplace. We'll sell it um somewhere, but I would
Speaker 1: hang it up in a glass case in my house
Speaker 1: one day. I'm not for the Hall of Fame, yeah,
Speaker 1: I want, I just I just know it for the
Speaker 1: Hall of fame. But forget that, forget forget these sort
Speaker 1: of you know, fake bits. I want that piece for
Speaker 1: my house. Forget bits, okay, forget jokes, games, anything we
Speaker 1: could say insincere. No, I want that piece from my house.
Speaker 1: You'll get it, you'll, you'll, you'll be able to find
Speaker 1: it somewhere. It's a pretty pretty widely produced garment. I
Speaker 1: think that. No, it's not the one that you bought.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. You don't understand sentimentality. You don't. You're
Speaker 1: very cold. That's why you came on here sort of
Speaker 1: shaking your eyes at me, despite I mean despite me
Speaker 1: working so hard to see. No, you can't, you can't.
Speaker 1: I worked really hard on the ads. Okay, job on
Speaker 1: the ritual ad anyway, um, okay, do you have something

Speaker 1: Jester flap bestie yes, Avid Reader, Yes, oh he's flipping thing. Okay, girl,
Speaker 1: the way I've been bookkeeping lately, I wrote a list
Speaker 1: of my resolutions Queen okay, Bullet journal down okay, non
Speaker 1: flop writer, Jester flop, Beth, this is I don't think so, honey.
Speaker 1: This time starts now, I don't think so, honey. Meryl
Speaker 1: Streep saying she doesn't like any action movie. Bitch, have
Speaker 1: you seen Spy directed by Paul Fieg, starring Melissa McCarthy,
Speaker 1: Jason Statham, and Rose Byrne. That is I mean there.
Speaker 1: It's so dumb to me that anyone, especially Meryl Streep,
Speaker 1: of all people, to make a blanket statement about a
Speaker 1: genre of culture of art and say there's nothing I
Speaker 1: like about it. There's something you sound like a my
Speaker 1: Space team two thousand three sing everything except rap and country.
Speaker 1: There's one action movie that you like at last, Meryl
Speaker 1: Meryl Streep, Mary Ellen whatever her real name is, stage
Speaker 1: name Mary Louise Flop. So they couldn't think of a
Speaker 1: character a name for your character on Big Little I
Speaker 1: Season two, so they named you Mary Louise, You're a flop, Meryl.
Speaker 1: I'm so ashamed that you wouldn't like any action movie,
Speaker 1: especially the best action movie of all time, which is
Speaker 1: Spy Starting Melissa McCarthy one minute, she I don't know
Speaker 1: if I can stand by calling it the best action
Speaker 1: movie of all time. I thought it was a fun
Speaker 1: action comedy, well boy kind and that's really what matters
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. Right, You and I
Speaker 1: both called Meryl Streep bitch on this episode, and we
Speaker 1: have to live know. But the thing is that the
Speaker 1: thing is my my opinion on Meryl is she is
Speaker 1: the deity, and I believe she deserves a nomination for
Speaker 1: the prom And when so when we say bitch, she
Speaker 1: knows or she should know. Orken no from my mouth
Speaker 1: that it is in adoration constantly. I just you know,
Speaker 1: it's hard to see. It's hard to see your heroes
Speaker 1: let you down, and I think Meryl let me down
Speaker 1: when she said she was Unclbert and Colbert, you know,
Speaker 1: asked her what's your favorite sandwich, what's your favorite this,
Speaker 1: and then he got to what's your favorite action movie?
Speaker 1: She made a face and was like, there aren't any.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, Meryll that you know that's not true.
Speaker 1: Yeah it was. It was like you saying the town
Speaker 1: was called Jaws. That's exactly what it was. It's literally
Speaker 1: exactly what you're being. A gesture and a flop and
Speaker 1: not a bestie. Honey, you're not being a bestie to me.
Speaker 1: The fact of the matter is, and let me absolutely
Speaker 1: tell you this to your face, is if I didn't
Speaker 1: tell you that, I wouldn't be being your bestie. Okay,
Speaker 1: m It's important to have someone in this life, the
Speaker 1: one I'm pointing to right now, to be held accountable
Speaker 1: and the way my my sister, my bestie, holds me accountable.
Speaker 1: And I received it. I love you, I love myself.
Speaker 1: I love you, dearly. I think we look stunning in
Speaker 1: these cards. I'm actually looking at it and it is
Speaker 1: a look, yes you do. I just love the elbows.
Speaker 1: I love the stars on the elbow patches. See, that's
Speaker 1: the one thing I would lose, the one thing I
Speaker 1: would lose. What makes it special, sweetie, No, honey, I
Speaker 1: think that what makes it special, darling deer are these
Speaker 1: gorgeous lines on the on the what did you call this?
Speaker 1: The cos that will on the collar. No, I just love.

Speaker 1: you don't like the starts, because guess what, she designed
Speaker 1: this herself. I respect her, I respect her artistic choice.
Speaker 1: I just that's what I would lose. I'm not going
Speaker 1: to cut them off. Darling, dear, you sometimes fluff the
Speaker 1: way you think about me. You sometimes sometimes the way
Speaker 1: semi calling the way you think about me. Oh my god. Um.

Speaker 1: in life have to be sacred. Okay, this is a
Speaker 1: sacred moment, sacred moment, and this is a sacred moment
Speaker 1: of the podcast. And because we are ending on a
