Speaker 1: Hey everybody, Pop Culture Season four episode for Chicken or Beef.
Speaker 1: I'm Scott Patterson. This is the I Am All In
Speaker 1: Podcast I Heart Radio one eleven Productions. I am joined
Speaker 1: by Tara Sue, Danielle Romo who will be back momentarily,
Speaker 1: and Amy Sugarman, who is doing this podcast from one
Speaker 1: of her many homes with her friend Alexis. Okay, if
Speaker 1: you were listening to the episode earlier, whenever I say
Speaker 1: Rory's the actor that plays Rory, my, you know what
Speaker 1: goes on? That was? It was, and we'll keep that in.
Speaker 1: That's not getting edited out anyway. All right, let's start
Speaker 1: this off. Loreli is talking to Rory after putting post
Speaker 1: it notes all over the floor in the very beginning
Speaker 1: of the episode. I think this was this scene after
Speaker 1: the the the the opening, and then we went to commercial,
Speaker 1: we did the theme song, and then here we are
Speaker 1: Lorelie laying posted putting post its notes all over the floor.
Speaker 1: Laurel I says, what are your plans today? Persis Kombata
Speaker 1: Persis Kombata was an Indian model, an actress who was
Speaker 1: best remembered for playing Lieutenant Leah. Is that it or
Speaker 1: Ilian Leah in the first in the feature film Star
Speaker 1: Trek the motion picture, lorealized referencing Rory's new surprisingly short haircut. Here,
Speaker 1: that is what you call an obscure reference. If I
Speaker 1: ever saw one Rory asking which posted path to take?
Speaker 1: Um Rory, well, how are we supposed to get out
Speaker 1: of our house? Lorelei crosses her arms, nods her head
Speaker 1: and because I Dream of Genie is an American fantasy
Speaker 1: sitcom television series starring Barbara Eden as a sultry two
Speaker 1: thousand year old Genie and Larry Hagman as an astronaut
Speaker 1: whom she falls in love and eventually marries. And this,
Speaker 1: I mean we're talking about what late sixties, early seventies. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was. That was a Yeah. Barbara was. Barbara Eden
Speaker 1: was every kid's crush and my neighborhood. I mean, everybody
Speaker 1: loved Barbara Eat and they love Barbara Felton gets smart,
Speaker 1: but you know, Barbara Eden was. You know, have we
Speaker 1: talked about whether you were a bigger Bewitched fan or
Speaker 1: I Dream of Genie? Um? Well, those you know, Dick
Speaker 1: Van Dyke Show. I dream of Genie Bewitched, Gets Smart.
Speaker 1: I think Gets Smart was probably the best comedy ever
Speaker 1: to be on television. Um I mean that it was
Speaker 1: just amazingly funny. Um Me, I just thought Bewitched. It
Speaker 1: was always Bewitched, and I dream of Genie in syndication
Speaker 1: like reruns when I was growing up. But I always
Speaker 1: leaned more towards Bewitched, which was more of a It
Speaker 1: was a classier show, you know, it had it really had.
Speaker 1: It dealt with an odd premise in a way that
Speaker 1: you know, it was almost like literature, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. They didn't, you know, they massed everything so
Speaker 1: it was like normal suburban life and here was a
Speaker 1: witch living amongst them. They didn't take it too far,
Speaker 1: which I really appreciate it. Anyway, each time Jeanie granted
Speaker 1: wish or used her magical powers, she would make that
Speaker 1: iconic move. She crossed her arms, blinked her eyes, and
Speaker 1: nodded her head and then suddenly, poof the magic happened.
Speaker 1: Uh Rory telling Dean how nice his wedding set up looks. Rory,
Speaker 1: it looks like Heaven or a Victoria's Secret commercial, which
Speaker 1: to some people is basically the same thing, okay. Uh.
Speaker 1: Victoria's Secret was founded in by American business Roy Raymond.
Speaker 1: Inspired by an uncomfortable trip to a department store by
Speaker 1: underwear for his wife, Raymond set out to create a
Speaker 1: place where men would feel comfortable shopping for Lingerie. It's
Speaker 1: famous annual fashion show was born in two thousand models.
Speaker 1: Just so, Bunchen, who who the heck is at? She's
Speaker 1: not getting any publicity lately. I was being sarcastic anyway,
Speaker 1: run what she Giselle? This unknown person I don't even
Speaker 1: know who the heck walked the runway and what was
Speaker 1: then the most expensive item of Lingerie ever created a
Speaker 1: fifteen million dollar diamond and ruby and crested fantasy bra.
Speaker 1: Wow anyway, Uh, Laura line Suki showing up at Michelle's
Speaker 1: new place of work, Laurel. We know where all those
Speaker 1: Calvin Klein's at Laurea, la We know where all those
Speaker 1: Calvin Klein ads went to die. In nineteen sixty eight,
Speaker 1: Calvin Klein founded Calvin Klein Limited, a coach shop in
Speaker 1: the New York Hotel in New York, with ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: The first Calvin Klein collection was a line of youthful,
Speaker 1: understated coats and dresses in seventy four. Tight fitting signature
Speaker 1: Jean designed by Klein went on to gross two thousand
Speaker 1: dollars in their first week of sales. Wow, nineteen seventy four.
Speaker 1: Well he really started a while ago. Good for him.
Speaker 1: The new underwear collections alone brought in seventy million in
Speaker 1: just one year, didn't Mark? Mark? Ye? Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: think I think they all did, right, I mean all
Speaker 1: like Justin Bieber did it and and uh who else
Speaker 1: has done it? I mean a lot of people, Kendall, Jenny,
Speaker 1: you know who you know who didn't do it? Me? Anyway,
Speaker 1: the new Wander work. They were advertise heavily throughout the nineties.
Speaker 1: That got a snort, I got a snort. And they
Speaker 1: were advertised heavily throughout the nineties on large billboards and
Speaker 1: other advertisements. Mark Wahlberg was the face of Calvin Clein
Speaker 1: during this era. Isn't it interesting that he was a
Speaker 1: Calvin Clean beefcake that went on to create a Hamburger
Speaker 1: shop Burger from from Beefcake to Burger's My life story,
Speaker 1: Laureli asking a man at the front desk where they
Speaker 1: can find Michelle, and man keeps ignoring them because he's
Speaker 1: on the phone. Laureli Oh. Janet Jackson is on the phone,
Speaker 1: The youngest of nine siblings in Motown's famous Jackson family,
Speaker 1: Janet Jackson, Miss Jackson. If you're nasty, I shouldn't laugh
Speaker 1: at my own good job? No you should. There's so
Speaker 1: few and far between. Parlaid her family success into an
Speaker 1: independent career that spanned recordings, televisions, and film. She appeared
Speaker 1: as a regular on the nineteen seventies comedy series Good Times,
Speaker 1: and later as a teenager in the dance orient two
Speaker 1: series Fat. Her fourth studio album, Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation
Speaker 1: eighteen fourteen, which debuted in nineteen nine, hit number one
Speaker 1: on the Billboard chart and number one on the Top
Speaker 1: R and B Hip Hop album Because We're we are
Speaker 1: a part of the hym Rhythm Nation. Man, you're just
Speaker 1: you're laying them down man, nice control. Yeah. I don't
Speaker 1: know any of the titles to any of the songs,
Speaker 1: but now you're schooling us. It was the biggest selling
Speaker 1: album of nineteen ninety. Rhythm Nation received nine Grammy Award
Speaker 1: nomination and she became the first female artists to be
Speaker 1: nominated for Producer of the Year in nineteen. Let's wait
Speaker 1: a while and then we'll do that, Suki, trying to
Speaker 1: remind Michelle of his call to her the day before. Suki,
Speaker 1: I missed the beginning of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy,
Speaker 1: and by the time I got back, they were all
Speaker 1: gay Queer I did he say, what have you done
Speaker 1: for me lately? He did, yes, and then he didn't.
Speaker 1: Queer Eyes an American, If I may proceed, Uh, your honor,
Speaker 1: you're we approached a bench. Queer Eye is a great
Speaker 1: reference because it's totally back again. Yeah. So how many
Speaker 1: things on this show like they bring up twenty years
Speaker 1: ago and there's still It's like a boomerang thing. Uh.
Speaker 1: Queer I is an American reality television series that premiered
Speaker 1: on the cable television network Bravo in July of oh three.
Speaker 1: Each episode featured a team of gay professionals in the
Speaker 1: fields of fashion, personal grooming, interior design, entertaining in culture
Speaker 1: role collectively known as the Fab Five, performing a makeover,
Speaker 1: usually for a heterosexual man, revamping wardrobe, redecorating, and offering
Speaker 1: advice on grooming, lifestyle and food. Luke trying to prove
Speaker 1: his point that there is no fate. Luke, Jim Morrison
Speaker 1: is not hanging out with Elvis, that Kennedy's did not
Speaker 1: kill Maryland. Uh yeah, sure, Luke is referring to the
Speaker 1: conspiracy theories that Jim Morrison and Elvis are still alive.
Speaker 1: Dis Believers were adamant that Elvis had faked his own
Speaker 1: death to go into hiding. Fans across North America have
Speaker 1: insisted they've spotted Pressley out and about. And I actually
Speaker 1: thought I saw him in Vegas. I read that book
Speaker 1: Els Elvis. I saw him several times in Vegas. Might
Speaker 1: not have been the actual guy. But if you read
Speaker 1: the is Elvis alive? Book? Didn't didn't? Um? Put it
Speaker 1: on the list? Uh get it for me for Christmas
Speaker 1: place somebody, for God's say, I need to know. Um.
Speaker 1: They spotted and and nine three so called Elvis enthusiasts
Speaker 1: and even created the Elvis Citing Society to monitor these
Speaker 1: apparent incidents. Some people even claimed he appeared as an
Speaker 1: extra in the Blockbuster Home Alone. The theory that Robert
Speaker 1: Kennedy had Monroe killed because she knew way too many
Speaker 1: state secrets. That's never happened before, that's just crazy, and
Speaker 1: had threatened to expose them. Alternatively, it's been suggested that
Speaker 1: Kennedy had her killed because she could reveal their affair
Speaker 1: to the public and endanger his career. The origin of
Speaker 1: this theory comes from the book The Strange Death of
Speaker 1: Marilyn Monroe by Frank A. Capell, who was a known
Speaker 1: anti communist activist in the town meeting, telling Suki and
Speaker 1: Michelle to come up to the podium with her, Laurel I,
Speaker 1: let's go Suk. Augustus Gloup uh all, I calls Michelle
Speaker 1: Augustus Gloop when she catches him, cheeks inflated, holding his
Speaker 1: breath because the factory this is like the oh my gosh, gosh,
Speaker 1: Augustus Gloop, the one that ruined it for all of them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: unforgiving and bad body. Odor Augustus Gloop is one of
Speaker 1: the four main antagonists and you guessed it, Charlie and
Speaker 1: the Chocolate Factory. He is a gluttonous, greedy, and sloppy
Speaker 1: kid from the city of Dusseldorf in Germany's He's the
Speaker 1: first of the five winners of the Golden Tickets and
Speaker 1: falls in the Chocolate River and is sucked into a
Speaker 1: pipe and is brought to the fudge room where the
Speaker 1: Loop is fishing him out of the chocolate. I guess
Speaker 1: this group is iconic. He's like one of the biggest villains.
Speaker 1: You guys for not getting the reference, so so yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't. I'm just explaining who he is. I guess
Speaker 1: this gloop is just the best villain in Charlie and
Speaker 1: the Chocolate Factory. He's not even a villain, but he.
Speaker 1: I guess this catchy catchy. Why are they calling Michelle
Speaker 1: that because he's kind of a villain, because because he's right,
Speaker 1: he's a fly in the ointment. He's the He's the
Speaker 1: Augustus Gloop of the chocolate. Okay, so Taylor, interrupting, loralizes
Speaker 1: presentation at the town hall meeting, asking about the parking spaces.
Speaker 1: Taylor paid paradise and put up a parking lot. Obviously.
Speaker 1: That's Joni Mitchell song Big Yellow tax he was at
Speaker 1: least nine seventy was on her album Ladies of the Canyon.
Speaker 1: Joanie wrote Big Yellow Taxi on our first trip to Hawaii.
Speaker 1: She said, I took a taxi the hotel. When I
Speaker 1: woke up the next morning, I threw back the curtains
Speaker 1: and saw these beautiful green mountains in the distance. Then
Speaker 1: I looked down and there was a parking lot as
Speaker 1: far as I could see, and broke my heart. Um,
Speaker 1: this blight on paradise. That's when I sat down and
Speaker 1: wrote the song. But you know, where's everybody in the park? Um? Anyway,
Speaker 1: Taylor is referencing Laureli having to take away more of
Speaker 1: this historical site to make enough room for parking. Taylor
Speaker 1: claiming the porch was built twenty three years ago is historical, Laurela,
Speaker 1: It's a twenty three year old porch. Unless you think
Speaker 1: Kate Hudson is historical, It's not historical. Kate Hudson was
Speaker 1: twenty four years old at the time the episode aired,
Speaker 1: but likely twenty three when it was filmed. Oh who whoa, whoa,
Speaker 1: there's more. I think there's more, right, hang on, that's
Speaker 1: not the end of it. Good reference again, though, because
Speaker 1: all right, Kirk O you bet your sweet bippy shoes. Uh.
Speaker 1: Kirk apologizing to Laurel I about the inconvenience of the
Speaker 1: alarm system our favorite gag in all of Gilmore Lore um,
Speaker 1: and that he has a strong sense of chivalry when
Speaker 1: it comes to women living alone. Kirk. My family tree
Speaker 1: dates back to a twelfth century night Laureli wow Kirk.
Speaker 1: As a kid, I thought that meant we were related
Speaker 1: to Ted Knight, Walt Walt Walt Wal. Ted Knight is
Speaker 1: well known for playing the comedic roles of Ted Baxter
Speaker 1: and The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Henry Rush and Too
Speaker 1: Close for Comfort, the judge Allie who Smells in Caddyshack,
Speaker 1: which was, for my money, one of the great comedic
Speaker 1: performances of all time. His well modulated voice, ideal for
Speaker 1: radio broadcasting and announcing, helped keep him afloat during the
Speaker 1: dismal nineteen sixties, providing narration and voices for a number
Speaker 1: of cartoon series, including The Batman, Superman, Our Star Trek,
Speaker 1: the animated series nineteen seventy three. And that is It
Speaker 1: for pop culture, Ladies and lemen. Thank you ladies for
