Speaker 1: Toss Popcorn is a production of iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: Hi.
Speaker 1: I'm Sienna Jakol and I'm Leanna Holsten, and welcome to
Speaker 1: Toss Popcorn, the podcast where two idiots watched every film
Speaker 1: on the AFI's one hundred Greatest American Movies of All Time,
Speaker 1: the Very slightly Less Racist tenth Anniversary edition, and are
Speaker 1: now watching movies of our own. Our listeners and our moms.
Speaker 3: Choosing this podcast is a safe factory for people who
Speaker 3: don't know anything about movies. Today, we're watching flaman Hot.
Speaker 1: For Oh Bye.
Speaker 3: Good warning. There will be spoilers about this very recent film.
Speaker 1: True, I know it was very good.
Speaker 3: Twenty twenty three, twenty twenty three, baby, Oh my gosh,
Speaker 3: did your mom put this on the list?
Speaker 1: She voted for this one?
Speaker 3: Yes? Okay, thank you, Lisa.
Speaker 1: I knew it was structed by a woman. I didn't
Speaker 1: know that one was straight up a.
Speaker 3: Eva Longoria, noted and beautifully haired celeb Eva Longoria. Yes
Speaker 3: have you seen this before?
Speaker 1: I have not. Oh my god, I need to watch
Speaker 1: it for a long time.
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, could I please hear your prediction for flames?
Speaker 1: I don't think I even mentioned anything about Mexican Americans
Speaker 1: in this prediction.
Speaker 3: Wow, erasure, erasure.
Speaker 1: Okay, Hi, Leanna, this is Sienna. I'm about to watch
Speaker 1: Flame It Hot, a movie that my mom loves that
Speaker 1: I haven't gotten to watch yet. I think it's about
Speaker 1: the person who invented flame in hot cheetos, and it's
Speaker 1: directed by a woman. Those are the things that I
Speaker 1: believe that I know. Yes, so hopefully there'll be a
Speaker 1: couple of scenes of people like eating this cheetah with
Speaker 1: this this stuff on it and going.
Speaker 4: Hmm, oh my, oh my gosh, oh my god, we
Speaker 4: have to do something with this.
Speaker 1: Yes, Okay, I love you, goodbye. Yes, pretty much. The
Speaker 1: film really is kind of unironically, so yeah, I would
Speaker 1: love to listen to your prediction.
Speaker 3: All right here it is good morning, Sienna, Hello Leanna.
Speaker 3: I Today we will be watching the film Flaming Hot.
Speaker 3: Oh is this the one with Andy Samberg.
Speaker 1: Hot Rod?
Speaker 3: That's something else we should watch Jack Black in it. No,
Speaker 3: I predict Andy Samberg or Jack Black maybe, or it's
Speaker 3: a documentary about the creation of the cheeto. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 3: I think it'll be kind of silly boy vibes.
Speaker 1: No, yep, that's it. I completely get what you were
Speaker 1: thinking yeah.
Speaker 3: Based on the name, I was thinking it was hot
Speaker 3: Rod or Nacho Libree totally, and what in fact was
Speaker 3: was Flamin' Hot, the story of the development of the
Speaker 3: flame and hot Cheeto.
Speaker 1: I will say I would have loved if that had
Speaker 1: been the style of this. Well, Leanna, before we get
Speaker 1: into the movie, Hey girl, Hey girl, Yeah, last year
Speaker 1: you were betrayed. Wait, no, last week you were.
Speaker 3: Betrayed last year. Much like Jesus, I recorded that prediction
Speaker 3: this morning, and this right now is now the next
Speaker 3: time today that I've spoken to a person.
Speaker 1: Wait, I guess some power to was you?
Speaker 3: Yeah? The first person I talked to was myself this
Speaker 3: morning recording this prediction. I really I was talking to you,
Speaker 3: but you weren't there. And then the second person I
Speaker 3: spoke to is you, and now you are here.
Speaker 1: Hello.
Speaker 3: The difference between those was about eight hours.
Speaker 1: Do you work from home on Fridays?
Speaker 3: I do, and my flatmate has not been working from
Speaker 3: home at all this month, which is hell for them
Speaker 3: and also actually more importantly for me. It's crazy how
Speaker 3: the day goes by and you just haven't spoken aloud.
Speaker 1: Being completely by yourself. I think it's even weirder when
Speaker 1: you're in a home that is not one that is
Speaker 1: just yourself.
Speaker 3: Yes, there's let to be a presence. You just become
Speaker 3: aware of things that you didn't need to know about.
Speaker 3: Like I now am aware of a numbness in one
Speaker 3: of my toes that was not an an issue before,
Speaker 3: but now I'm really aware of it, and I'm like,
Speaker 3: is this bad?
Speaker 1: Interesting?
Speaker 3: Should I have feeling in every part of all of
Speaker 3: my toes?
Speaker 1: People don't check in with their toes as much as
Speaker 1: you'd think.
Speaker 3: No. I used to be very aware of my toes
Speaker 3: as a dancer, but then I had to log off
Speaker 3: toe wise for a number of years. But I think
Speaker 3: I think the numbness is probably from all the dancing.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: You've logged off toe wise.
Speaker 3: In the in the toe sense, I'm offline off. Nobody
Speaker 3: is staffed in the toe department of my bod. I've
Speaker 3: laid off the toe department preus honestly relevant relevant my toe.
Speaker 3: My toe unit has been made redundant, you know, I
Speaker 3: don't know. I don't think you have to have feeling
Speaker 3: in every part of all of your toes. It's true,
Speaker 3: as long as they can, they're just there over exactly,
Speaker 3: exactly exactly. Oh good, and our echo chamber is up
Speaker 3: and running because it's follow the format throw what you know,
Speaker 3: you know format. Oh oh, I'm sorry. Oh oh, no,
Speaker 3: I said an impro Oh god, I'm so sorry. Hey girl,
Speaker 3: do you want to talk about that or talk about
Speaker 3: something else?
Speaker 1: No, I just took it. I took an improv class
Speaker 1: that I was kind of like on the fence about
Speaker 1: to begin with. But it was one of those situations
Speaker 1: that I do to myself a lot, where I went,
Speaker 1: I don't want to do this, and thus it will
Speaker 1: be good for me to do, like oh my god,
Speaker 1: when I was crazy, Oh my god, girl, the Pope, sorry, hope,
Speaker 1: the pope. We have a number of Catholic listeners out
Speaker 1: there who wish me happy Eastern things. Hello, Hello, We
Speaker 1: lost the pope who was a very very important pope.
Speaker 1: He really modernized the church. She was very liberal. You know,
Speaker 1: he didn't do it all, but there were a.
Speaker 3: Lot no, yeah, for sure, there were a.
Speaker 1: Lot of ways that he really really centered the church
Speaker 1: in a way that was going forward and keeping us
Speaker 1: sane throughout the rest of the world that we know
Speaker 1: of kind of failing us right now.
Speaker 3: We know.
Speaker 1: The world as we know it, that's kind of failing
Speaker 1: us right now. He was really so it felt like
Speaker 1: progress was happening everywhere else feels like it's the opposite.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so it.
Speaker 1: Is sad, but hopefully my my family group chat was
Speaker 1: popping off, popping off. The day, the day the Pope
Speaker 1: died was a day that I could tell that my
Speaker 1: world is different than my friends because the things people
Speaker 1: were talking about in our group chats and stuff. I
Speaker 1: was like, you guys are talking as if the Pope
Speaker 1: didn't die today. You're going on with life as we
Speaker 1: know it, as if the Pope isn't dead, which is
Speaker 1: all my family is talking about.
Speaker 3: Yeah, anyway, I'm sorry for your loss.
Speaker 1: It's all good. Another thing that's happening is that I
Speaker 1: will be helping at the Puppet Festival this.
Speaker 3: Year, Popeit Festival. That's that's the third Pope pun. I
Speaker 3: don't know if you heard the previous two. Sorry, what
Speaker 3: were the other you were in? No, that's okay, you
Speaker 3: were in mourning?
Speaker 1: What were they?
Speaker 3: I'm gonna let you hear him back during the edit.
Speaker 1: As I hear myself mourning aggressively.
Speaker 3: I'm just making Pope puns. In the back.
Speaker 1: Well, Leona speaking of people who should be Catholic, but
Speaker 1: I guess are not, question Mark, let's talk about this movie.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, were they not? Oh that's right, wait book,
Speaker 3: I'm reading. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: At one point they said pastor, and I said pastor.
Speaker 3: Oh is that that's not? What is it? In? Catholic? Minister,
Speaker 3: mother Wizard? Yes, father, I did, I did, Sorry about that? Yes,
Speaker 3: well Catholic, Sienna, could you please give us a Catholic
Speaker 3: synopsis of the non Catholic but really Catholic in Energy
Speaker 3: and Spirit film Flaman Hot.
Speaker 1: Yes, Flaming Hot, a story of Richard Montagnez, a former
Speaker 1: janitor at Freedo Lay who is often credited with creating
Speaker 1: flaman Hot cheetos.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: The film was directed by Ava Longoria and it's all
Speaker 1: about Mexican American power. You better work. Hell yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's it. We see inside of the Freedo Lay factory.
Speaker 1: It's got somehow, it's made vibes.
Speaker 3: It does, and I.
Speaker 1: Would go through the It's also big on Chicano culture,
Speaker 1: which is what my family sort of that's my family's background.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's all the same, but like it's just
Speaker 1: sort of how you identify because of the eras. Yes, yeah, so,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, let's talk about it.
Speaker 3: Yes, hell yeah. Let's get into our phone notes, where
Speaker 3: we read the notes that the other person took on
Speaker 3: their phone while watching the film. Okay, first up, two
Speaker 3: big cues. Yeah, one cute? Did you love this movie?
Speaker 1: Okay? Okay? Both yes, both yes, and that like, I
Speaker 1: loved all the parts of it. Was the end a.
Speaker 3: Little hallmark, all the parts of it.
Speaker 1: Was the end a little hallmark for me. And when
Speaker 1: I stepped away from the movie that I say, boy,
Speaker 1: conservatives probably love this interesting.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 1: In addition to that, I loved it and thought it
Speaker 1: was super cute. I don't want to hate on it
Speaker 1: in that way. I just I understand the nuances, Like
Speaker 1: when Tony Shaloub's characters felt like he was gonna say
Speaker 1: something evil and it turned out to just be nice.
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, convenient, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But yes, so I'm aware of that. But at the
Speaker 1: same time, I loved every single moment of it.
Speaker 3: Ah, I agree.
Speaker 1: I watched the show how It's made a lot.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: If we've discussed this, so that's already part of it.
Speaker 1: And I loved this Mexican family. Yeah, I loved so
Speaker 1: much of it. So yeah, so kind of.
Speaker 3: Any family vibes? Okay, yeah great? And in my second
Speaker 3: queue for you, where are you at vis A vis
Speaker 3: the flame and hot Cheetoh.
Speaker 1: I was going to ask you the same thing. So
Speaker 1: I only I only began sort of enjoying spicy foods.
Speaker 1: My family is Mexican, but my Mexican side of the
Speaker 1: family is like super not spice loving, which is like
Speaker 1: so disappointing. But they're really like spice WIMPs, which is funny.
Speaker 3: But simps spims don't ever say I'm telling my I'm
Speaker 3: giving myself the note to never say that.
Speaker 1: Again, I think, but that sounds no good.
Speaker 3: I hate it.
Speaker 1: But uh so I've only recently begun really enjoying spicy foods.
Speaker 1: So I could see myself getting a bag of flame
Speaker 1: and hot Cheetos now, but I'd have to eat it
Speaker 1: very slowly. Ah love Cheetos. The thing is is I
Speaker 1: love regular cheetos so much, like, probably more than the
Speaker 1: average person because I'm a garbage mouth. But I heard
Speaker 1: somebody call themselves that one time, and I was like,
Speaker 1: that is what I am. I put garbage on my mouth.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, garbage mouth.
Speaker 1: But uh so, usually I'd rather have regular Cheetos because
Speaker 1: I enjoyed them so much. But I can enjoy I
Speaker 1: can enjoy a flame and hot Yes, what about you.
Speaker 3: I am not a Cheeto girl. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: That's okay.
Speaker 3: I wish I were because they are so beloved and
Speaker 3: I people enjoy them so much, and I'm sad I
Speaker 3: don't have that same enjoyment. I will absolutely fuck up
Speaker 3: a dorito. I'll really up a deret. My favorite thing
Speaker 3: in La was to get high and then just how's
Speaker 3: a bag of Dorito's. There was something about the mouth
Speaker 3: feel while you're high.
Speaker 1: Do you like nacho cheese?
Speaker 3: And I like cool ranch that here? They call it
Speaker 3: cool original in the UK, and I'm like, what, that's weird?
Speaker 3: What are you talking about?
Speaker 1: Original? What cool?
Speaker 3: Original? I don't understand what that is. That is so weird, insane.
Speaker 1: Insane behavior. It can't be cool original. If it's original,
Speaker 1: it's original. If it has to be qualified as cool,
Speaker 1: it's something else.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's well, I mean they call themselves great Britain,
Speaker 3: so that's true.
Speaker 1: Not the master of the qualifier. Yeah, it's hard for
Speaker 1: me to imagine reaching for a bag of flame and
Speaker 1: hot Cheetos on an empty stomach.
Speaker 3: Ever, I think that would be a hard way to
Speaker 3: start the day.
Speaker 1: Lehanna, your first note is, oh my god, is it
Speaker 1: about Cheetos? One more time, your first note is, oh
Speaker 1: my god, it is about Cheetos.
Speaker 3: Yes, Yes, I really was, so I was.
Speaker 1: I'm proud of you too. I'm proud of you too.
Speaker 1: I didn't realize you have seen any advertising about this either.
Speaker 3: No, none at all. And the facts are you just
Speaker 3: missed me nee my microphone in the mic joint. The
Speaker 3: fact that Fredo's Frido lay Cheetos are just not part
Speaker 3: of my world at all. I was like, whoa still
Speaker 3: still the I mean it speaks to the power of
Speaker 3: flaming hot, you know, the branding, that it makes you
Speaker 3: conjure up that snack food even when you do not
Speaker 3: personally prefer it. Seanna, I agree with you. You've written
Speaker 3: imagine bullying someone over the world's worst meat blowing.
Speaker 1: That was crazy. These kids, there's there's a theme going
Speaker 1: through of like being a shame to be Mexican, or
Speaker 1: being in a shame to be like the foreigner at school.
Speaker 1: You know, like with the food. The kids make fun
Speaker 1: of these, like stupid bully White kids come up and
Speaker 1: they're like, what's the burrito that you wish you had?
Speaker 3: Balooney sandwich?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 1: What, how have you eaten baloney? How many times have
Speaker 1: you eaten blooney in your life? Do you think? I
Speaker 1: feel like we're lucky to not have to eat it
Speaker 1: as much as they did in sort of maybe the sixties.
Speaker 3: Yeah, is that what they are able to make a
Speaker 3: smiley face out of? You know? That that meat that
Speaker 3: they can make make faces in. I think that's disturbing.
Speaker 3: I don't think we should do that. That feels like
Speaker 3: we're mocking the animal. I agree with that, thank you.
Speaker 1: I just can't eat meat that is pink like that,
Speaker 1: that is pink all over, that is pure, like homogeneous pink,
Speaker 1: not just around pink meat. I can't eat that.
Speaker 3: Unsettling. Well, you'll never eat me.
Speaker 1: Are you looking for a little more spice in your life?
Speaker 1: We might just provide that after these advertisements, we'll be
Speaker 1: right back. Leana, you said factories are mind blowing to me,
Speaker 1: So how do you feel just the sheer volume of chetos.
Speaker 1: I just can't get my head around seeing that many chips. Yeah,
Speaker 1: going out there, and that's just one factory.
Speaker 3: I mean this. You have to make enough chips to
Speaker 3: feed America.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And we love chips, we do, we do love you
Speaker 3: really love. You have to make so many chips, and
Speaker 3: I it's like when you're in a stadium for an
Speaker 3: event and they're like the audience count today is forty
Speaker 3: thousand people, and you're like, what, Wow, I have no
Speaker 3: way of understanding what that is. Yeah, and I'm looking
Speaker 3: at it and you've told me what it is. I
Speaker 3: get a little stressed about it because it reminds me
Speaker 3: of space.
Speaker 1: Uh huh.
Speaker 3: There's so many chips that I start to feel like
Speaker 3: we're in outer space.
Speaker 1: You don't like things that are incomprehensible, I really don't.
Speaker 3: I think it's why I shy away from religion.
Speaker 1: Also, factories, okay, love that reflection factories are in a
Speaker 1: way infinite. There's like, no, it's not like they're trying
Speaker 1: to complete an order. Take a break.
Speaker 3: I actually think that is exactly what it is.
Speaker 1: It's like, there's never any reason that they're going to
Speaker 1: stop producing chips, Like they're gonna do that forever.
Speaker 3: I guess, except for Reagan. Yeah, the only thing that's
Speaker 3: getting in their way is Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 1: And they still wanted to. It's just because the factory
Speaker 1: doesn't have any reason to stop ever, Like if it
Speaker 1: closes down, that's one thing, But the point economy, it
Speaker 1: has to close down, because the point of the factory
Speaker 1: existing is to go for forever and ever and every
Speaker 1: chips until the end of time. That is terrifying to think.
Speaker 3: About chips odd infinitum. Wouldn't it be nice that would
Speaker 3: be a good family crest chips ad infinitum.
Speaker 1: I think so too. Wouldn't it be nice if more
Speaker 1: jobs just kind of ended at some point, if they
Speaker 1: were like, well, we did it. We did a lot
Speaker 1: of chips. I'm proud of us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like they set a quantity when the factory opened.
Speaker 2: That's all.
Speaker 1: I want six billion.
Speaker 3: Chips and then we will stop. Guess I want a
Speaker 3: six billionth one. We're done.
Speaker 1: I did it, We're able to. We're ready to move
Speaker 1: on to a new snack.
Speaker 3: Now, new snack, new snack.
Speaker 1: Leanna, I think that a few of our notes are
Speaker 1: about to be similar here. You've said this was so
Speaker 1: me on the first day of.
Speaker 3: My job, and you wrote me at my one job
Speaker 3: a month? Is this about being enthusiastic?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 3: And helpful? You know, we'd be like, oh boy, do
Speaker 3: I love I'm just so happy to be here. I'm
Speaker 3: so glad to have a job. I don't care what
Speaker 3: it is. I will help with literally whatever. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I feel like the more grunt work my job is,
Speaker 1: like if I get put onto PA on something, now,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I gotta make this count. So I'm like networking, working,
Speaker 1: doing the best, doing the best, doing the best, Like,
Speaker 1: you need this, so you need this table move, You'll
Speaker 1: go ahead and do it you need I had an
Speaker 1: idea over here, I had an idea. They're like, who
Speaker 1: are you hey? Please?
Speaker 3: That Pa was insane.
Speaker 1: You're supposed to say nothing to us. Yeah, well, but
Speaker 1: you see, I have so much more to offer than
Speaker 1: just this. But I'm so excited to have the work
Speaker 1: that I'm just giving it my all.
Speaker 3: Yes.
Speaker 1: Yes. How long do you think that lasted for you?
Speaker 3: Ooh? I think typically like a year and then I
Speaker 3: kind of hit a wall. But I don't think actually
Speaker 3: that's not true at all. I'd say maybe a month.
Speaker 3: I'm offering heavy enthusiasm for one month, yeah, and then
Speaker 3: I kind of. I'll simmer right down. Huh, love that Sienna.
Speaker 3: Before we get into our other similar notes, you wrote, quote,
Speaker 3: Jesus did some pretty gangster shit end quote. This movie
Speaker 3: is pandering to Christians, Okay? And did you feel positively
Speaker 3: about pandering or negatively or just observing that one?
Speaker 1: I was just observing and it made me laugh because
Speaker 1: I was like, absolutely, they know exactly where to get us.
Speaker 1: It's just the one movie we get to watch about
Speaker 1: Mexican Americans and we don't even have Catholics in it.
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me?
Speaker 3: Yeah, dang, I'm sorry about that Mexican Catholicism.
Speaker 1: Powerful Well, should we talk about our next shared note,
Speaker 1: which is about at the same time, Yes, all right?
Speaker 1: Three two one.
Speaker 3: Tony Tony shlloube. I love him, Tony Shalloo'll follow him anyway.
Speaker 3: I will follow you into the dark.
Speaker 1: Oh, my money, Joe, my surprise, my surprise, my glee,
Speaker 1: my glee.
Speaker 3: I love when he's somewhere. I know me too, somewhere,
Speaker 3: I say, Tony shaloube.
Speaker 1: He is the best, He is the greatest performer. He
Speaker 1: is so funny.
Speaker 3: Yeah, his big big eyebrows in this Yeah, Bushy big eyebrows,
Speaker 3: huge brows.
Speaker 1: What do you love Tony shalub most from Hmmm.
Speaker 3: That's gotta be monk.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I gotta be monk. Did you watch a lot
Speaker 1: of Monk? I forget I know, we talked about this
Speaker 1: a lot. Me freaking two. I love Tony shaloub Leanna,
Speaker 1: you've said America is so embarrassing. Please say more.
Speaker 3: Oh God. When the economy crashed, ah and it was
Speaker 3: Reaganomics and he was like, it'll trickle down. I was like, damn,
Speaker 3: We've really been embarrassing forever, haven't we obviously as white people,
Speaker 3: but then also as like a nation run by a
Speaker 3: lot of white people.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I haven't seen that many movies going through
Speaker 1: the course of like the eighties, just as like a
Speaker 1: working person.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: For some reason, that struck me, and I was like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I know about trickle down and whatever.
Speaker 1: But I know, I know about Reagan's trickled down, and
Speaker 1: I all of Reagan's horrible choices for this country and
Speaker 1: the working people of this country. But I don't often
Speaker 1: see in movies that exact it affects somebody so specific. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I was kind of it was kind of haunting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: my god, everybody's gone.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: The reason one of the reasons I feel like this
Speaker 1: would movie would beloved by conservatives is even though that's
Speaker 1: like a commentary on like Reagan wasn't thinking about the poor,
Speaker 1: Reagan was not thinking about the American people, this is
Speaker 1: these are choices for the rich, the choices that led
Speaker 1: to where we are today. Yea, with rich people like
Speaker 1: the you, we're rich taking over. So that's that's a
Speaker 1: commentary on that. But if you wanted to look at this,
Speaker 1: it's like, well, look who got to keep his job,
Speaker 1: the guy who worked the hardest.
Speaker 3: By his bootstraps. It's like he's the best total and
Speaker 3: they have Like while I was watching it, where where
Speaker 3: you were like I think can conservatives might love this?
Speaker 3: I was like, I wonder if like white people really
Speaker 3: love this movie? Yeah, And I have no idea. I
Speaker 3: can't speak to that because I simply am a white
Speaker 3: person and I did enjoy it a lot. I don't
Speaker 3: know how people who this is actually representing would feel
Speaker 3: about it. I know, truly no clue. Yeah, but when
Speaker 3: I really love something, it does give me pause.
Speaker 1: Huh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this thing about an experience that's not mine but
Speaker 3: it's making me intentionally, making me feel really comfortable watching it.
Speaker 3: I wonder if it's feeling truthful, and maybe I don't know.
Speaker 3: I'm not really criticizing, I'm just actually wondering. Yeah, but
Speaker 3: what I will criticize is, yeah, making the CEO of
Speaker 3: PepsiCo like a benevolent billionaire who's just there to like
Speaker 3: listen everything. It was a flat terring portrayal of maybe
Speaker 3: an angel. Maybe that billionaire is an angel, but that
Speaker 3: goes against everything we know about billionaires.
Speaker 1: Leanna, you've said I am that one lady picking up
Speaker 1: the cool ranch Doritos. That is me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, When he and his colleague are like, who even
Speaker 3: buys the cool ranch Dorito's, and then a white woman
Speaker 3: comes in and is like excuse me and picks them
Speaker 3: off the shelf, I said, yes.
Speaker 1: Ah, same, wlaw. Those are the moments that represent my
Speaker 1: entire internal conflict existing in the world. Yes, as a
Speaker 1: person of of Mexican American heritage and also absolutely white.
Speaker 1: It really I'm like I am everyone on the screen,
Speaker 1: mainly the white lady makes me sick.
Speaker 4: Mmmm.
Speaker 1: The the distress and confusion I feel is immense.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, but that's not being American. That's a very
Speaker 1: American experience. I'd say, all right, uh, Leanna, you said
Speaker 1: ha ha cheto dust on the fingers. Oh yeah, when
Speaker 1: he has the when he's calling love the CEOs on
Speaker 1: the phone.
Speaker 3: Loved that. That was so true because that's that's the
Speaker 3: iconic Cheeto thing. Do you eat Cheetos with chopsticks? Have
Speaker 3: you ever done that?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 3: I like the rush you have garbage fingers as well
Speaker 3: as garbage.
Speaker 1: Fingers when you have them, kind of shred it off
Speaker 1: with your teeth. Leona, you've said, so you decide that
Speaker 1: you're an idiot me.
Speaker 3: When his mentor at the factory, who I of course
Speaker 3: know as the All State guy, was like, oh, it
Speaker 3: doesn't go wrong, it doesn't go right, so you decide
Speaker 3: that you're an idiot. And I was like, hello, I'm
Speaker 3: seeing myself represented. That's my brain's way of thinking. Absolutely. Somebody.
Speaker 3: The other day I saw a really hot man at
Speaker 3: this place I was with with a friend and she
Speaker 3: was like, oh, do you want to go back and
Speaker 3: like ask for his number? And I was like, are
Speaker 3: you kidding? I was just recently rejected. I'm not doing
Speaker 3: that again. It didn't work, and so I've decided I'm
Speaker 3: an idiot. You know.
Speaker 1: You see, I'm an idiot. I've learned something about myself.
Speaker 1: That's how I feel about every don't you see, friend,
Speaker 1: I'm an idiot. A lot of what he was saying
Speaker 1: about like I'm too stupid. I can't do this fucking job.
Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, yeah, hello, speaking my language, Leanna,
Speaker 4: you said, I love these entrepreneurial kids.
Speaker 1: Oh I loved this family.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that little boy flapped.
Speaker 1: That little baby, that little baby who's eating all the
Speaker 1: spicy food. Yeah, you're kid.
Speaker 3: He was a cutie. And then the older son who's like,
Speaker 3: I know why it's not working. It's because there's no
Speaker 3: advertising around it. I love that it exists. Entrepreneurial kids.
Speaker 3: I love this note, Siena, you wrote she sent the
Speaker 3: call over who is this woman?
Speaker 1: Okay, the sequel to this movie needs to be about
Speaker 1: the woman who was like, uh, you really shouldn't be
Speaker 1: calling here. And he's like, wait, can I though, Can
Speaker 1: I please talk to Tony Shaloub?
Speaker 3: And she's like, please let me talk to Tony Shalub.
Speaker 1: She's like, okay, yeah, that was crazy.
Speaker 3: Yeah. The executive assistant to the head of.
Speaker 1: She gave no reason. I wonder if there was a
Speaker 1: monologue they cut out of her being like, this reminds.
Speaker 3: Me, sir, You've got to hear this.
Speaker 1: When my mother came here from Russia, nobody wanted to
Speaker 1: give her a chance.
Speaker 3: She had such a great idea for she had regular
Speaker 3: flavored inside a cheeto inside another cheeto. It didn't go
Speaker 3: anywhere because nobody sent her call through to Tony Shaloub
Speaker 3: Cheeto nesting dolls.
Speaker 1: That is so funny, Patrushka dolls?
Speaker 3: Is that what they're called? I believe it.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's right. Okay, Leanna, you've said
Speaker 1: really huge sleigh, huge sleigh all around. Yeah, how'd you
Speaker 1: feel it? Generally?
Speaker 3: You know, I just enjoy an underdog story. I had
Speaker 3: little like small quiet alarm bells going off in the
Speaker 3: back of my mind that were like, this is really
Speaker 3: all wrapping up really cleanly. But it just I think
Speaker 3: is one of those movies. Yeah, and you know, fine,
Speaker 3: who am I to say that's not how it happened. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and everybody just slayed so hard, like he slayed so
Speaker 3: hard with his idea. Judy slayed so hard in every
Speaker 3: pair of jeans she wore and also I loved oh
Speaker 3: a kind and perfect woman. Yeah, the kids slayed hard
Speaker 3: by having good business ideas and acumen. Tony Shaloub had
Speaker 3: big eyebrows. The score was fun, just many slaves.
Speaker 1: I completely agree.
Speaker 3: Are you on your first day of the job and
Speaker 3: being pretty over eager about things? Don't worry you won't
Speaker 3: feel the same way in three minutes. I'll be right
Speaker 3: back up to these short messages.
Speaker 2: Well the honest.
Speaker 1: Should we move on to badges and trages?
Speaker 3: Please, please, and thank you. This is our segment, Badges
Speaker 3: and Trages, where we award badges for where we award
Speaker 3: badge billion dollar business ideas huh, and tradges for.
Speaker 1: Being trabajador and not getting any and not getting any uh,
Speaker 1: not getting the job you want anyway?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, what does that mean?
Speaker 1: Hardworking? Ah?
Speaker 3: Oh, yes, I have a badge for ninety eight minutes long.
Speaker 3: Thank you?
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, they packed a lot in there though, true,
Speaker 1: like there were a lot of steps in this movie.
Speaker 1: They put it on the shelves that it's like nothing's happening.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have a badge for forcing a white kid
Speaker 1: to try a burrito for the first time. I just
Speaker 1: loved that scene. Yeah, they forced him. Yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: believe you, Like, oh, this is delicious. Try the burrito. Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course it's delicious. You've been equal loney sandwich.
Speaker 3: Is Yeah, it's it's really hard to imagine a world
Speaker 3: in which white people didn't enjoy burritos.
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 1: I was thinking of that too. It's used to be
Speaker 1: and that's scary their favorite thing now.
Speaker 3: Yeah, badge for I love seeing someone do well, an
Speaker 3: underdog story where someone does well.
Speaker 1: I love that completely agree. Badge for eras of different looks.
Speaker 1: I love that, and uh and learning about history like
Speaker 1: from this perspective, because I just realize I haven't seen
Speaker 1: that many movies that are like here's the effect of
Speaker 1: Reagan's Yeah, situation, that's not like a documentary and not
Speaker 1: like I mean to be honest, I'm see white stories
Speaker 1: through the area.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, totally bad. Similar the way that they showed
Speaker 3: the years passing in the factory, like it was on
Speaker 3: different parts and yeah, things in the factory.
Speaker 1: I was like, that's fun, great, your favorite know what
Speaker 1: year you're in.
Speaker 3: I love knowing where and when we are.
Speaker 1: I have a badge for that, baby boy. I loved
Speaker 1: both these boys, but the youngest one who's like as
Speaker 1: big as my head and who was fighting with his brother. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and who was their taste tester. Yeah, Oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: he was so cute. Yeah he was when he was like,
Speaker 1: I love being Mexican and was naming all the foods
Speaker 1: he loves making fun of his brother. That's such a
Speaker 1: funny reason to make fun of your brother. Yeah, to
Speaker 1: be like, you're just ashamed and you don't like tamales
Speaker 1: as much as I do. So funny. I loved him.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he slapped a badge for the three to one
Speaker 3: breathing thing that the couple did to help her, to
Speaker 3: help Judy calm down, and not in a way that's
Speaker 3: like misogynist to say, like calm down to a woman,
Speaker 3: but like she's actually really stressed and it helps her
Speaker 3: de stress.
Speaker 1: They were a loving and wonderful couple.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tredge for Badge.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, badge for Matt Walsh's wig was cracking up
Speaker 1: or whatever it was that was on, whatever was going
Speaker 1: on there was cracking me up. WHOI I don't know
Speaker 1: what it was like gray and then with a couple
Speaker 1: of wisps of white in the front, the shape was
Speaker 1: so unnatural on his head. It really it really got me.
Speaker 3: And it took me a second to realize that was
Speaker 3: Matt Walsh.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he did look different, very bald faced.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess the because he normally has a mustache,
Speaker 3: doesn't he.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he has a mustache, different hair, different.
Speaker 3: Hair badge for I love Judy. I love Judy so
Speaker 3: much too.
Speaker 1: Oh that's a great badge badge for. I'm just realizing
Speaker 1: right now. I mean, like, I'm definitely concerned about the
Speaker 1: the conservative appeal I have, but I will say I
Speaker 1: feel like movies where somebody is like a former gang
Speaker 1: member and chooses something else, like sometimes they can be like, well,
Speaker 1: he was the one smart wise person. He's trying to
Speaker 1: change his community in this way, but they kind of didn't, like,
Speaker 1: I appreciate the way that was just like one of
Speaker 1: the parts of his life and his community, and they
Speaker 1: didn't really like demonize like the rest of like his
Speaker 1: friends who were in a gang and stuff, you know
Speaker 1: where if this was really really pushing like a super yea,
Speaker 1: if it was a total like Christian in Teachings movie,
Speaker 1: that would make me uncomfortable. I feel like there'd be
Speaker 1: more of that. So I will all give it crazy
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true, and they make it very clear, like
Speaker 3: the systemic racism and societal prejudices totally force people into this,
Speaker 3: like yeah, there is literally no other choice.
Speaker 1: Yeah. A lot of the times like if you need
Speaker 1: to make a lot of money, this is what you
Speaker 1: gotta do.
Speaker 4: Hm.
Speaker 3: My final badge is for this post office worker who
Speaker 3: is just watching them do their little prayer over the
Speaker 3: box of flame and hot Cheetos that's getting shipped, and
Speaker 3: then says amen with them at the end.
Speaker 1: I loved that little prayer.
Speaker 3: This was fun, it was cute, silly.
Speaker 1: Uh badge for that is genuinely so true about fear
Speaker 1: of minorities. When he gives that speech, that's like, honestly,
Speaker 1: the reason like the powers that be are trying to
Speaker 1: make you feel bullied and bad about your culture is
Speaker 1: because they know you have so much riz that they
Speaker 1: could take you down, like or that you take them down,
Speaker 1: you take them down. And that's honestly, so so true
Speaker 1: about the way that racism and classism works in the
Speaker 1: United States is it's like, uh, uh, we can't let
Speaker 1: these guys know that they could really take us down
Speaker 1: or that like We're jealous of them for this reason,
Speaker 1: this reason, this reason, because they could become more powerful
Speaker 1: at any moment. We need to keep the status quo
Speaker 1: as it is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yay, tragis uh trages.
Speaker 1: My first trage is.
Speaker 3: There in early in the film they had clips from
Speaker 3: historical like newsreels, and one of them was from the seventies,
Speaker 3: a protest of people of Mexican Americans protesting police brutality,
Speaker 3: and somebody was holding a sign that said and police brutality,
Speaker 3: And it was a societal trag for the fact that
Speaker 3: fifty years later, we're still having to protest food.
Speaker 1: I know. I felt that very much, the like it's
Speaker 1: been years and years and still nothing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: Trage for the Hallmark movie Vibes. I'm I never like
Speaker 1: that in any movie where it's like too sweet. I
Speaker 1: didn't think I wouldn't. I won't say this is like like,
Speaker 1: there's lots I was enjoying in addition to that, but
Speaker 1: every now and then there are moments of that where
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I can see that being the takedown.
Speaker 3: If you were, that's the trage. That's the trage little sweet, Yeah,
Speaker 3: very similar. My next trage is that some of the
Speaker 3: dialogue felt a little bit trite, I think, or predictable,
Speaker 3: where sure, it's kind of one of those stories that's
Speaker 3: gonna have to hit those beats, as many of them do,
Speaker 3: so there always inevitably will be something that they have
Speaker 3: to say that's like something somebody else has said in
Speaker 3: a similar story. But it just felt a little bit like,
Speaker 3: I don't know, the dialogue sometimes felt kind of basic
Speaker 3: at times.
Speaker 1: Uh huh, that is that fair to say, I think so,
Speaker 1: And that will go to my second trage, which is
Speaker 1: I do think Tony Shaloub was underutilized in this film. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he was, if you want to use a video game term, nerved.
Speaker 1: He he a girl. He is a really good actor
Speaker 1: at doing sort of like uh, cutting dialogue. I think
Speaker 1: like he'd be a good sort of character who who
Speaker 1: had some more nuanced to him. But he was completely unnuanced. Yeah,
Speaker 1: which is true, which is okay. He played it fun,
Speaker 1: but there was a certain level of the movie where
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, there's nothing fun left for him
Speaker 1: to say because he's just delivering like the best news
Speaker 1: ever attitudes. Yeah, but yeah, I don't mind it being
Speaker 1: like all positive at the end because that felt very
Speaker 1: like it felt like a beautiful legend almost like that's
Speaker 1: the magical realism for me. But I just wish Tony
Speaker 1: Shalub got to be funnier. He kind of just had
Speaker 1: to say whatever at the end.
Speaker 3: Yeah he was. Yeah, totally agree. My final traged is
Speaker 3: for glorifying a CEO. Yes, billion dollar corporation. I just
Speaker 3: think we're at a We're at a point in society
Speaker 3: where no, no to that. I think there's ways you
Speaker 3: could make little little cutting remarks about about the CEO.
Speaker 3: Just totally maybe this guy is an amazing person. Great,
Speaker 3: I just don't really believe it. Yes, I don't know
Speaker 3: that you get to running Pepsi Co by being like
Speaker 3: an angel. Again, perhaps perhaps I'm I'm being anti CEO
Speaker 3: in my commentary and my perception, but I think that's
Speaker 3: also where it felt a little bit like, yeah, unnuanced
Speaker 3: you know the rich two thousand and three even was
Speaker 3: a different time to now, but totally Stephen. At the
Speaker 3: time we were like, hey, I don't think billionaires are
Speaker 3: supposed to exist. I don't think that's the best.
Speaker 1: Totally. My final tragedy is Christian. Not Christian. You're Christian Protestant.
Speaker 1: Are you kidding? Vague Christian? Come on, let's see some
Speaker 1: Mexican Catholics up in here.
Speaker 3: Come on, is lighting a candle a Catholic thing? Or
Speaker 3: is that a Christian? Generally?
Speaker 1: They were lighting a candle.
Speaker 2: No, I know.
Speaker 1: That's why I was so surprised when they said pastor,
Speaker 1: I was like, what. But to be honest that I
Speaker 1: noticed the candle that they lit was just a plain
Speaker 1: white candle. It wasn't like a votive yeah, with Marianne
Speaker 1: it or anything. So I shouldn't known.
Speaker 3: I shouldn't known.
Speaker 1: Well, now that we've traged Protestantism, I don't know about
Speaker 1: we now that we've both traged Protestants.
Speaker 3: Sure, honestly whatever, yeah, why not?
Speaker 1: Catholics have done terrible things also, Okay, Leona, let's move
Speaker 1: on to our next segment, which is, of course, how
Speaker 1: to pretend you've seen this film. This is for you
Speaker 1: are at the at the chip in the chip aisle,
Speaker 1: choosing which chips you want. You're getting an assortment, you're
Speaker 1: getting spicy, you're getting salty, you're getting a chi hintu BlimE,
Speaker 1: getting an assortment for a party, and uh, what was
Speaker 1: what was Matt.
Speaker 3: Walsh Matt Walsh's character Lonnie Mason, Ronnie, Lonnie, Lonnie, then
Speaker 3: l Lonnie.
Speaker 1: And Lonnie comes up to you mm and he says,
Speaker 1: and he's white by the way he got up to you.
Speaker 1: And he says, he I just saw a pretty interesting movie,
Speaker 1: A pretty interesting movie about the inventor of the inventor. Well,
Speaker 1: some people say, of Flame and Hot Cheetos. My favorite
Speaker 1: character was that CEO because he was so nice. He
Speaker 1: was so nice despite being so rich. And that's what
Speaker 1: I want to be.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: It's a really inspiring film for that reason. I really
Speaker 1: want to be like Tony Shaloub. The movie was called
Speaker 1: Flame and Hot. I'm gonna tell you all about it.
Speaker 3: And in order to assemble Lannie into a line that's
Speaker 3: nowhere near you and put him in a box and
Speaker 3: ship him away, we're gonna give you a few sentences
Speaker 3: you can say to pretend you've seen the film Flaman Hot. Yes, Lannie,
Speaker 3: I've seen Flaman Hot. This movie introduces a very important
Speaker 3: topic of conversation that I do think we all as
Speaker 3: a society need to be discussing, which is that identical
Speaker 3: twins should not be wearing matching outfits, because if they are,
Speaker 3: they will bully you and your lunch choices.
Speaker 1: It puts them in an evil position.
Speaker 3: It's an evil position. It's the shining a film I
Speaker 3: have not seen.
Speaker 1: Yes, Lonnie, I have seen the film Flameing Hot. Fun fact,
Speaker 1: the film's budget is estimated at less than one percent
Speaker 1: of Freedo Lai's sales of spicy snacks in a single year.
Speaker 3: Whoa, I've already clocked Lonnie approaching me in the chip
Speaker 3: aisle from the corner of my eye, and I see
Speaker 3: that he's getting closer and closer and then far too close,
Speaker 3: and then is speaking at me. And before he even
Speaker 3: opens his mouth, I say to him, Okay, I can
Speaker 3: see you're gonna be a weird one.
Speaker 1: I love that line.
Speaker 3: I love that line.
Speaker 1: I love that line. Yes, Lonnie, I have seen the
Speaker 1: film Flame and Hot. Let's just talk about it. Is
Speaker 1: it true that he's the one who invented it?
Speaker 3: Does it matter?
Speaker 1: I enjoy this as a movie. Wait?
Speaker 3: Is that contested it?
Speaker 1: Yeah? It's oh yeah, oh no. But this is why
Speaker 1: I'm glad they made it a movie, because it's really
Speaker 1: it's really it's really the story and what we can
Speaker 1: learn from it he's still a lot of what he
Speaker 1: did was true, it's just not it's contested whether it
Speaker 1: actually is the reason Friedo started Freedo Las started producing.
Speaker 3: Okay, it uh huh.
Speaker 1: But he's still like pitched to Yeah, he still pitched
Speaker 1: to like the CEO or higher up or whatever about
Speaker 1: the Mexican American community, you know, and he ended up
Speaker 1: moving up. I think he ended up being working the
Speaker 1: machines and things like that. I don't know if he
Speaker 1: did end up being an executive. It's all really confusing.
Speaker 3: But do you think they had to get approval from
Speaker 3: Freedo lay on this?
Speaker 1: Siday? I wonder about this.
Speaker 3: It did feel pretty pro Freedo lay like. It was
Speaker 3: never quite anti capitalism. They were a little bit anti corporate,
Speaker 3: but they were never like the company is evil. It
Speaker 3: was Reagan's fault. You know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great question. They definitely in order to
Speaker 1: talk about they must have to get some approval even
Speaker 1: to do logos and stuff.
Speaker 3: I assume, oh true.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, I don't know anything about that.
Speaker 3: More people should be saying that it's so brave and
Speaker 3: important to say that it's okay to say that. Yes, Lannie,
Speaker 3: I've seen Flaman Hot. I'm gonna quote one of the
Speaker 3: sweetest lines from it that in this situation is actually
Speaker 3: the opposite case. There's no me without you. Now again, Lonnie,
Speaker 3: that's not what's going on here. There's very much me
Speaker 3: without you, which is what I'd like to be happening
Speaker 3: right now. But when he says that to Judy and
Speaker 3: he's like, You're like the whole reason I'm here. Oh sweet.
Speaker 1: I loved that. I loved the way that we see
Speaker 1: like a team supporting each other like that. Yeah, like
Speaker 1: it's a family, it's a family affair. I really loved
Speaker 1: the family in this actually, also in terms of it
Speaker 1: being a movie that could be considered pandury, I just
Speaker 1: found them to be very authentic and cute.
Speaker 3: The family Yeah yeah, you know.
Speaker 1: Versus like you're so strong, you go to work every day,
Speaker 1: You're so true.
Speaker 3: And she did feel like a more rounded character than
Speaker 3: just wife who supports husband. I really is that true?
Speaker 1: Am I just saying that I felt that way?
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, okay, great.
Speaker 1: Yes, Lonnie. I have seen the film Flame and this
Speaker 1: was the glorious Ava Longoria's directorial debut. Ooh, and fun fact,
Speaker 1: she briefly worked in the fast food industry herself. It
Speaker 1: didn't say where she worked. I would love to know.
Speaker 3: Was she in it for one second as somebody's secretary.
Speaker 1: That's a great question.
Speaker 3: Did you peep an Eva Longoria?
Speaker 1: I thought I spotted Apparently apparently the montagnees is we're
Speaker 1: both in it at some point. Oh that's fun. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Oh love that, which is cute.
Speaker 3: I love when they put a real life person in.
Speaker 1: Me too, just a second. I love that, well, Leanna Shell.
Speaker 1: And move on to our next segment, which is, of course,
Speaker 1: should you watch this or where we tell you if
Speaker 1: you should watch this film or if you should do
Speaker 1: anything else with your time?
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I think I would say sure you can
Speaker 3: watch it. If there was anything I was going to
Speaker 3: recommend instead of it, it would just be another similar
Speaker 3: thing where they're like, it's fast paced and they're narrating quickly.
Speaker 3: But almost all of those involve like are mainly about
Speaker 3: white people. So I think this one's a nice take
Speaker 3: on the genre. But from a different perspective, I would
Speaker 3: say you could watch this or you could really just
Speaker 3: house a bag of Dorito's. I'm sorry to support free Delay,
Speaker 3: but they make delicious. They're good.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 3: I loved in that food documentary that was like, yes,
Speaker 3: food is softer now and it's evil and like it's
Speaker 3: designed to make us addicted to it. But also like, yeah,
Speaker 3: I eat Cheetos. They're delicious.
Speaker 1: I love them.
Speaker 3: I'm a human woman, Like, of course I'm gonna have
Speaker 3: a bag of tostitos hint of lime. I would say, yeah,
Speaker 3: have a bag of your favorite chip on hand. Seanna,
Speaker 3: what would you say?
Speaker 1: I think this movie was real fun. I love Eva Longoria,
Speaker 1: so I support her.
Speaker 3: We love that career.
Speaker 1: We gotta watch real women have curves. Okay, I would
Speaker 1: say that you could totally watch this movie. I had fun.
Speaker 1: I love the how it's made environment, like the factory environment.
Speaker 3: It's fun, it's interesting, it's a peek behind the curtain.
Speaker 1: I also, I just I really enjoyed this movie. I
Speaker 1: really did.
Speaker 3: So.
Speaker 1: The one thing is Tony Shaloub. When he arrived, I
Speaker 1: thought he was going to do a lot more than
Speaker 1: he did. Yeah, and that was objectively disappointing. But besides that,
Speaker 1: one thing that you could watch if you want to
Speaker 1: support Ava Longoria and you want to support you want
Speaker 1: to explore the nuances of what it means to be
Speaker 1: Mexican in America and know your culture and things. You
Speaker 1: could watch clips from Desperate Housewives of Ava Longoria, especially
Speaker 1: her daughters. Okay, there's there's a scene where her daughters
Speaker 1: find out their Mexican because they didn't know because their
Speaker 1: family never talks about it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so anyway, you should watch that. Leapers are really
Speaker 3: chomping at the bit to get me to watch Desperate Housewives.
Speaker 3: I've never seen it.
Speaker 1: It is so fun I loved Housewives. It was my
Speaker 1: pandemic show. There's also a day where she finds out
Speaker 1: what salad is. It's all very problematic, but it's also
Speaker 1: really funny.
Speaker 3: Beautiful.
Speaker 1: Also, I would all say so gorgeous.
Speaker 3: It's sickening. Yeah, I mean her hair is so famously good. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I love her.
Speaker 1: She's so fu Sienna.
Speaker 3: What would you rate the film Flame and Hot?
Speaker 1: I'm going to give Flame and Hot uh four cheetoh
Speaker 1: tumblers out of five. I really really enjoyed what I enjoyed.
Speaker 1: I screamed many times. There was so much I loved
Speaker 1: about this movie. Yes, legitimately confused, they didn't represent the Catholicism.
Speaker 1: I just my my experience of my culture is just so.
Speaker 1: My family's so Mexican Catholic, so.
Speaker 3: It's yeah, yeah, I was just looking.
Speaker 1: For myself, as everyone always is. I get the but uh,
Speaker 1: I thought it was very fun. Some of the ceo stuff,
Speaker 1: the capitalism stuff was a bit concerning. I was sad
Speaker 1: about Tony Shaloup, but I had agree time. Yeah, had
Speaker 1: a lovely time. And I think I'm gonna buy some
Speaker 1: cheetos later.
Speaker 3: What about definitely gonna fuck up a dorito?
Speaker 1: And then I also, I must say, I have to
Speaker 1: say quickly, all of the the articles and stuff about
Speaker 1: if this movie is true make me really mad and sad. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're all like it's probably not true, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: just let this man.
Speaker 3: That's like all the stuff that's coming out about Sinners
Speaker 3: where they're like qualifying its success. It's box office success,
Speaker 3: but always found the other bullshit statistics and it's like,
Speaker 3: shut up, it's doing well.
Speaker 1: I just enjoy the movie. Enjoy the movie anyway. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right.
Speaker 3: I would give flame and hot. I think also four
Speaker 3: four burritos out of five, four homemade burritos in aluminum foil. God,
Speaker 3: it sounds so freaking good. I think I was gonna
Speaker 3: give it a three, but I think that's just because
Speaker 3: I'm really hungry right now. But I do think I
Speaker 3: enjoyed it a lot while watching it.
Speaker 1: It was a delight.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Again, it's just like that imperfect kind of lionization
Speaker 3: of a billionaire. I do agree it's troubling. But I
Speaker 3: thought the acting was so good. I loved the main actor.
Speaker 3: I thought he was so fun. Yeah, flipping a door Judy,
Speaker 3: she was so gorgeous and so good. And the music
Speaker 3: I thought was really fun. Yeah, the paycing was good. Yeah,
Speaker 3: a lot to enjoy here. And a good story. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I as a white woman, thought this was just what
Speaker 3: a great story?
Speaker 2: Fun?
Speaker 3: That's what I would say.
