25
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: Welcome back for another week. Here we are getting into

26
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: one of our most talked about episodes amongst each other.

27
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: Do you care to elaborate on that? Kevin um, this

28
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: wasn't necessarily our favorite episode, but you brought up a

29
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: good point, which was watching it again, how did you feel? Yeah,

30
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: this week is Acafellas, right, and you're coming off of

31
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: the high of the Pilot and Showman's, which are two

32
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: excellent episodes. As Chris said, he likes Showman's more than

33
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: the pilot, so it was up there. So then you

34
00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: come you get to Acafellas and you're like wow. And

35
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: that's the way I had it in my mind, But

36
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:09,239
Speaker 1: watching it this morning, I had a very different feeling. Well,

37
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: I don't love the actual storyline of of the Aqua Fellas.

38
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: The other parts of this are um so great and

39
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: it's like the beginning of Kirk coming out and it's

40
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: the beginning of you know, Sue and the Cheerio is

41
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: kind of like infiltrating the Gale Club, And so I

42
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: felt very differently than I thought I would after watching

43
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 1: this whole episode. Do you think it's because we're older

44
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: now and I remember back then like this episode is

45
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: all about the adults. I do remember that as well,

46
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: Like we would watch some of the episodes and we'd

47
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, get to our part. Yeah, maybe that's

48
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:52,239
Speaker 1: what it is. We appreciate a more well rounded story. Yeah,

49
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 1: before we get into it, let's talk about the state

50
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 1: of the world when this episode aired. So this episode

51
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: aired on September six nine. I think we were all

52
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: in Australia for the first time. We flew to Australia.

53
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: We had two big um press events. Um it was

54
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: in Sney when Sydney went in Melbourne and it was

55
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: the first time I ever went to a strip club.

56
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: Remember that we pay We sang karaoke. I don't remember that,

57
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: but I do remember karaoke. Oh yeah, we went. We

58
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: we landed in Melbourne, Australia and went straight to a

59
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: strip club. Did I go with you? I think so.

60
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: It was very early, the sun was still up, that's right.

61
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: We went out. It was raining. We got on the

62
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 1: train um to get down somewhere and there was a

63
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: big newspaper with Glee on the coffins. We were like

64
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: that it was very weird, but really really cool. It

65
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: was our first trip out of the country for the show,

66
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: and the reception was very very warm, I mean why

67
00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 1: pretty unbelievable. So in both cities, Sydney and Melbourn, and

68
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: we went to these events and again it's like two

69
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,839
Speaker 1: episodes in and we're like, oh, you know, we would

70
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: be some signing, some autographs, meeting some fans. Thousands of

71
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: kids showed up, thousands dressed like us, dressed in school uniforms.

72
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: It was um and it wasn't It was like jarring

73
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: and shocking. I think to us it was also because

74
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: you were like, why you know it was it was

75
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: like the first taste I think, and it wasn't in

76
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: our on our terps. So it was really um. It

77
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,919
Speaker 1: felt different and it was sort of the first time,

78
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: for lack of a better word, that we were treated

79
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 1: or experience things. I guess for me that felt like

80
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 1: we were sort of becoming known where we I don't

81
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: know when we got to do things they when we

82
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: got to do the Sydney Harbor Bridge climb, Like we

83
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:56,919
Speaker 1: autographed things and they put on a wall with all

84
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: these other famous people were still up on that wall,

85
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: by the way. So if you to Sydney and you

86
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: go do the bridge climb, um our photo is there?

87
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:10,159
Speaker 1: Fun fact? Are you going to say it? We were

88
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: out the night before till god knows when the morning,

89
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: and um, I we all were partying like crazy and

90
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 1: the next morning we get to the bridge climb or

00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: we're in the I'm in the hotel room getting ready

92
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: and we get a call from the pr from Fox.

93
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,799
Speaker 1: They're like, hey, you guys, just you know, like excited

94
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,560

95
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: You get there, you sign your release forms and then

96
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: you take breathalyzer test and you go up and I'm like,

98
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: the hell we do? I think I'm still drunk. Yeah,

99
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: we were all definitely still drunk wasted. And then we

100
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: were looking at tips on how to shoved peanut butter

101
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: hash browns what I read, but I know I didn't either.

102
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 1: We tried to find peanut butter but we couldn't and

103
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 1: then we ordered I remember we ordered like room services

104
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 1: browns and shoved hash browns down our throats hoping that

105
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 1: like it would soak up the rest of the alcohol.

106
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: So these photos of us were actually like I had

107
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: my sunglasses on, it was the sun, and it was

108
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: also because I was wildly hungover. We had we had

109
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: had a great night that we were really you know,

110
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: kids living it up like. It was definitely that sort

111
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: of trip. Yeah, yeah, yeah, and taking care of pretty well.

112
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: We also shout out to the Fox International people like

113
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: Pam Jackson, what incredible correct, We'll we'll have to talk

114
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: to Pam at some point, but she um would take

115
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 1: us on these trips. I don't know how she did it,

116
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: because we were all over the place and crazy and

117
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: going out and she had to make sure that we

118
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 1: were on time and doing you know, the professional things

119
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: we were obligated to do, but while also enjoying our downtime.

120
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 1: It's noble and Pam Jackson is just a ray of sunshine,

121
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,480
Speaker 1: and she would. She took Jen and I many places

122
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: around the world after that, and so I feel very

123
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: very thankful. Stories we'll share those threads, Okay, so um,

124
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: we we digressed quite a bit back to what's happen

125
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: because that trip was monumental for us. It was it

126
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: was it was the number one song in the country.

127
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: Was I got a feeling by the Black Eyed Peas

128
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: hands down sends memory. I can hear that song in

129
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: my bones. I mean, like we've said it before and

130
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: we'll say it again, I'm sure. But Black Eyed Peas,

131
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: because this album was out and these songs are out

132
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: at that time, and we were coming up at the

133
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 1: same time, we were doing everything together basically, every award show,

134
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: every appearance, even trips we took. They were always there

135
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 1: for it. Yep, yeah, yeah, we're on the same plane

136
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: with them, you guys again. Um. It was also when

137
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: this aired. Um, it was the week of the Emmys,

138
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: but it was too early for us to be nominated

139
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: for anything. We were only airing our third episode. Let's

140
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:22,239
Speaker 1: get into the episode yet, Yeah, let's do it. Okay,

141
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: So Kevin, I think Kevin and I were chatting and

142
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: I like to try we'd like to try something with

143
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 1: you guys. We'd like to try a recap format and

144
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: and you can tell us if you hate it, but

145
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: I think we should try this. I mean, when you

146
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 1: have these hour long shows are structured into three acts,

147
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: but also three main storylines. Do you have your A

148
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: storyline your B storyline and you see storyline and sort

149
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 1: of order of importance or screen time is A, B

150
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: and C um they're tiered in that way. So we

151
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: thought we maybe we talked about it in that way

152
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: because there are so many of us in every single

153
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: episode that to talk about the main plot points of

154
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 1: some of these A, B and C storylines and go

155
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: at it like that and then give you some of

156
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: our bts and memories because I think that's more fun

157
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: to talk about anyway. All right, so let's try it,

158
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: um all right? So in Aca fellas um in the

159
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: A storyline, Will is inspired, if you will, by his

160
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,240
Speaker 1: failure to um go after his dreams as a performer.

161
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 1: As Quinn said, like did you ever audition after like

162
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 1: after school or like perform or did you even try?

163
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: Which like that Delirie was great. Um. So Will's parents

164
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: are also in town, which Victor Garber and Deborah Monk

165
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 1: like this is the beginning of like the big names,

166
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 1: you know, movie stars, TV stars where you're like, oh wow,

167
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 1: that's cool. Also someone so didn't see them, you didn't

168
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 1: get to work exactly. And also someone that like on

169
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 1: the show. We weren't privy to this knowledge or these

170
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: conversations that these people were going to be coming on

171
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: the show, So it was shocking to us to get

172
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 1: to work and you see their name on a call sheet,

173
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,679
Speaker 1: like Victor Garber, what is he doing here? Mr Andrews.

174
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: Mr Andrews. And then Debora Monk, who also like another

175
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: like queen of comedy, who also is forever embedded in

176
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: my mind as um uh the mother in Center Stage.

177
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: That's right, I don't ever forget it. Obviously an iconic movie. Well,

178
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: they are encouraging MAT's We're sorry Mr Show's behavior, um

179
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 1: because like by saying how proud they are and he

180
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 1: should go after what he wants and um so Mr

181
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: Shoe ends up starting a boy band. Yes, And I

182
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 1: feel like this might have been inspired by the fact

183
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: that all that was talked about in the press for

184
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: a minute was that Matt was previously in a boy band.

185
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,199
Speaker 1: That's right, you think that's right? I think so. And

186
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: I also think it was a really good way for

187
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 1: us to get some, like I said, like adult screen time,

188
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: to see some of these adult characters that we haven't

189
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: seen that much of in the first two episodes and

190
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,599
Speaker 1: see their talents and ability to power a bamboo and

191
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: tanaka Will Schuster And also who John play was a

192
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,719
Speaker 1: guest star, John Lloyd Young, who was dating Lea at

193
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 1: the time. It's not the reason he got on the show.

194
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,440
Speaker 1: I mean he was a Tony Award winning um actor

195
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: in a hit Broadway musical. He just happened to also

196
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 1: be Leah's boyfriend at the time. So and around us Yeah,

197
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: um so John John Lloyd Young in there as well.

198
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:46,199
Speaker 1: Um so the Acapollas do so well. Mr Print Principal

199
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: Figgins sees their performance at that like dive bar where

200
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: Emma Pillsbury is just swaring living and they perform at

201
00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: the PTA event where the one and only Josh Groban

202
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: is going to come and um that's thanks to Sandy Ryerson.

203
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: I mean also, I also love that in the middle

204
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: of this storyline that the boy band sort of starts

205
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: to break apart, where you have the Howard bambooze that

206
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: was never my dream. Cantonaka is the pressure is on,

207
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: yeah and saying you know, like this really gets my

208
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: girlfriend going in the in the bedroom. And that's that's

209
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 1: kind of like the why I think his motivation for

210
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 1: hanging on to this this boy band if you will, yeah,

211
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,959
Speaker 1: I mean, and to keep it together. They recruit Finton

212
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,680
Speaker 1: and Puck to be in this thing, and so then

213
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 1: also it's like how did they get away with They

214
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 1: performed at the PTA meeting, which is like in a

215
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: full auditorium with full lighting and stage design. Um, and

216
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: students and teachers are performing. I want to sex you up. Yeah,

217
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, it's a different time. I

218
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: don't know. I remember them um filming this and um,

219
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 1: were you there, Kevin, I don't have any memory of

220
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: this note I don't see. I don't think you were then.

221
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 1: I think it was mainly the girls and um, I

222
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 1: do remember Cris being there, but I don't remember they

223
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: kept the straight straight boys away. Um no, because because

224
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: Puck and Finn were in the performance. That's right, I

225
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,199
Speaker 1: was the only one not there, which we have to

226
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: talk about. Why you also didn't visit with local adrenal

227
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 1: and artist just like missing from this episode. But um,

228
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: we were there in law Manhattan Beach. We shot this

229
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: where the p t A performance was and I remember

230
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 1: hearing the music and them and we didn't get to

231
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: see them. Re her sisters all at all, so we

232
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: didn't really get to see them performed. But I remember

233
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: meeting Josh Groban, um, being very star struck. I was

234
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: very jealous about that. I listened to his music all

235
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 1: throughout high school. I mean just we sang you raised

236
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: me up at my high school graduation. Know he was

237
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 1: doing the song for the Polar Express. Josh Grobn was gigantic.

238
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: He was easily selling four or five million albums per album,

239
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 1: just rolling them out, like come on, jeez. And then

240
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: you know we have finite high school boys performing with

241
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 1: teachers in a very inappropriate PTA performance. Um. And also

242
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 1: then Josh Grobin comes in with a wonderful, wonderful subplot

243
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: of Sandy Ryerson's promise. You know, Josh Groban to be

244
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 1: there because their pen pals, but Josh Grobin actually is

245
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 1: serving him some papers and also asking him to stop

246
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: stalking a restraining order, and it's I do love how

247
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:50,239
Speaker 1: everyone is there and everyone is so awkward and uncomfortable,

248
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: and even Victor Garber, you know, at the end, which

249
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: is really sweet scene with Matt about he inspired me

250
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 1: to go back to school and like, I'm sorry about

251
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: Josh Cobn. I do just how weird Josh Groban playing

252
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: himself on it. Fun fact, he said he was in

253
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: Ohio because he was inducting Run Teams into the Rock

254
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 1: and Roll Hall of Fame. He actually didn't in real life,

255
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: but Run Teams he did get inducted into the Hall

256
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: of Fame that year, so there's a little credibility to that.

257
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: It was Eminem not you know, when you think of

258
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: Eminem you also think of Josh Grobin, so it does

259
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: make sense. Sure. I also this is um Also the

260
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: episode we're will point out that Emma mentions John Stamos

261
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: for the first time, right, which I'm sure it was

262
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: influenced whether they knew or not that they wanted John Stamos,

263
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: I'm sure to play to be a part of the

264
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 1: show at some point. I'm sure that was a Ryan

265
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: thing that was like, let's or it was inspired by

266
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 1: and they're like later in life, they're like, Okay, let's

267
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 1: get let's get John. Maybe it's that's sort of like, oh,

268
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 1: let's make a character like Jane Lynch. Oh, let's just

269
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: Jane Lynch, fair enough. Maybe it's that trying to articulate

270
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: thank you, you know for that. Yeah, and um Stamy

271
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 1: does join later. I mean I did love I I

272
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: like seeing the boys do some questionable dancing and singing,

273
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: and it was pretty it was uncomfortably straight. Yes, is right.

274
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 1: Maybe that's why we don't like it. Maybe that's it's

275
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: like always in every Broadway show there's like one dad song,

276
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: you know, a thousand per set, and the Aka Fella

277
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: storyline is the Dad Dad song. VI, it's the glove song.

278
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: And I'm nailing hammer on head. There you go. Alright,

279
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: so let's talk. Let's talk about the let's get to

280
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: the good. What are we doing this episode? So Glee

281
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: clubs upset because Shoe is not a good choreographer and

282
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: we hated his song in the last episode, the song Choys.

283
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,400
Speaker 1: We hate his choreography. We just hate Mr Sho. He's outdated,

284
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: you know, And we're well, Rachel's got some motives. She's

285
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 1: trying to win, and she's upset about she knows that

286
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 1: what he's giving us is not going to happen. So

287
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 1: people want scheming. We get some scheming from the Cheerios,

288
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: Sue and Quinn and Santana, which we get to see

289
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: so much more of Nia in this episode, and some

290
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 1: very good nuggets of comedic brilliance from her excellence excellence. Um. Also,

291
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: I do love I feel like you know, as the

292
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:36,159
Speaker 1: show progresses, you get less of the Diana and Nia

293
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 1: dynamic in this form, and they are so good together.

294
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 1: They're very, very funny, and like I just love Early Quinn,

295
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 1: Early see Antana, who are like millions of Sue like

296
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 1: it's shows. It's so quintessential to this, like villain versus

297
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: the nerd in school and I love that cliche and

298
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: I love that, you know, like Sue get was these

299
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: high school kids things to do, some mischievous plots to

300
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,879
Speaker 1: pull off, but then like high school things happen and

301
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 1: they get distracted, like, well, we tried to do that,

302
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: but you know, so and so is mad at this person,

303
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,959
Speaker 1: so we couldn't do it. Um, So they set up

304
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: to hire Um, Dakota Stanley to Stanley, you're Stanley up. Sorry,

305
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 1: I got hired Dakoda Stanley to choreograph because he choreographs

306
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 1: are vocal adrenaline and the whole thing here is that

307
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: he is so intense and so good that the new

308
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: directions will never be able to cut it and will falter.

309
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,880
Speaker 1: So I remember shooting these scenes with whit Herford, who

310
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 1: played Dakota Stanley hilarious. Um, we were cracking. Yeah, the

311
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,639
Speaker 1: one with all of us where he's like criticizing us.

312
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 1: But earlier on we go to UM we go on

313
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 1: location and I remember shooting this with Um Kurd and

314
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 1: we're say, this is where you kind of set up

315
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,239
Speaker 1: the Kurt's car with the Lincoln and you know him

316
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 1: driving that car and UM, there was a last scene

317
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 1: of the night that we shot with him in the convertible,

318
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 1: UM getting in the car and we had like run

319
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 1: out of time, and it was like one of the

320
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 1: first times I think I realized like, oh, you can't

321
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 1: like really go over without like costing a lot of

322
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 1: money to the production. UM. And I think we did

323
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: that in like one take. I think that was like

324
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: a very very rushed thing. And I remember having a

325
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 1: line and being so excited that I finally had a

326
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: line and I got I think I got to do

327
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: it once and I was like that's it, that's it. Um.

328
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: But yeah, another incredible vocal a journal performance. I mean

329
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 1: I never I just love when they put them in

330
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 1: the air and then they get on the floor and

331
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: it was just like, God, they're so good. Um. Fun fact,

332
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 1: the girl in vocal Adrenaline outside by the garbage cans

333
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 1: who is holding um the other dancers hair back is

334
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 1: Shelby Shum, who is or was at the time Harry's girlfriend,

335
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,479
Speaker 1: but now they are married with a child, and you know,

336
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,120
Speaker 1: and she's a friend of ours. But that is Shelby

337
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 1: Shum that we get to see, one of the best

338
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: people on the planet. And then also, Kevin, did you

339
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:29,959
Speaker 1: know that Dakota Stanley was actually Cheyenne Jackson was supposed

340
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: to play Dakota Stanley? What so he was supposed to

341
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: play to go to Stanley? And I texted him this

342
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:43,640
Speaker 1: morning because I was like, I feel like I know this,

343
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:48,400
Speaker 1: like he was supposed to play this role. Um, he responded,

344
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 1: and I started to read you the text, let me

345
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 1: get it. So I wrote him a voice I said,

346
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 1: I sent him a voice message and he said, I said,

347
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 1: did you was it true that you were supposed to

348
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 1: play Dakota Stanley? He said, hey, hey, yes, that is true. Um,

349
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 1: I was supposed to play that part. Um. Actually I

350
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 1: traveled to l A. I had my fitting and I

351
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: got the flu and I was so sick. He was

352
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:14,479
Speaker 1: like insanity at the time. He was doing Broadway at

353
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 1: the time, so a poor guy. I was lying on

354
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 1: the floor in the costume shop and it was lu

355
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 1: Irick that came in and she was taking care of

356
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 1: me and it was such a bummer. So yeah, that

357
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 1: was my I thought my Glee moment was over until

358
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: Ryan said, oh I have something else for you. Um,

359
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: and so yeah, it is very very true. Oh my god,

360
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 1: thank I he got to come back, I know, because

361
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: you know, what a what a looker. It's a shame.

362
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,640
Speaker 1: He's not talented either. No, yeah, exactly, it's terribly terribly

363
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: untalented and really ugly. So we'll have Hyanne on the podcast.

364
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: He was also one of those people Broadway people. I

365
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: didn't know who he was, and then I remember hearing

366
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 1: him saying for the first time and just like, well,

367
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 1: that's not humanly possible or fair, but exactly like what.

368
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:10,640
Speaker 1: So Sue also tries to get to pretty terrible success

369
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 1: um Quinn and Santana to pick off the Glee club

370
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: one by one to mess up their relationships, their morale,

371
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,640
Speaker 1: all that sort of thing, which brings us to sort

372
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: of the sea plot of this episode, which is the

373
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 1: best plot, the best plot where Mercedes is noticing that

374
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 1: everybody's coupled up, and she in her bff kurt Um

375
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:43,919
Speaker 1: are seemingly close and friendly with one another. So Quentin

376
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: and Santana swoop into encourage that love interaction, and it

377
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:53,879
Speaker 1: keeps happening, um until some of the new directions step

378
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 1: in and be like, we're having a game engine. So

379
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: the game engine was really fun to shoot, and I

380
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 1: remember being so excited I got to say Lady Fabulous,

381
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: hurts Lady Fabulous. Um. That was really Uh. We didn't

382
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 1: have like attend to do in this episode, so it

383
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: was really fun to shoot these little like one offs.

384
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 1: But um, we were very involved in this Bust Your Windows.

385
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: I feel I feel like I was invested in this number.

386
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: I mean basically, yeah, I think our memory of this

387
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: is Bust Your Windows because coming into this show or

388
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,360
Speaker 1: the season, during the pilot, Amber and I had been

389
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: talking about and I think it was Amber and Ryan

390
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,439
Speaker 1: they had been talking about Jasmine Sullivan. Somehow came up.

391
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,360
Speaker 1: Amber and I were gigantic fans of Jasmine Sullivan. Um,

392
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 1: it was her first album had just come out and

393
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: Buster Windows was the single, and it was the first

394
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: time he sort of listened to what we were saying

395
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 1: about the music and put it into the show and

396
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 1: then gave her this gigantic and in sane performance that

397
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: I love that It ends with you broke my car,

398
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: You broke my heart, You broke my heart. It's so

399
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: and I do you like we all went and watched

400
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: we I mean I feel like we we watched every rehearsal,

401
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:23,399
Speaker 1: We watched this being filmed, like this was this was

402
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 1: it for us. This was like our first music video moment.

403
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 1: Also story wise, leading up to this, you know, after

404
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,959
Speaker 1: the gay invention and the plotting by the Cheerios, Mercedes finally,

405
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,639
Speaker 1: you know, addresses it with Kurt, and Kurt says that

406
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: he's in love with somebody else and on camera we

407
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,399
Speaker 1: see he's looking at Finn, but then Rachel comes into

408
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 1: frame and he just says, it's Rachel. And at this

409
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 1: car wash. Were you at this car wash? I think

410
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 1: we were. Yes, we were. We were at the car wash,

411
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: but like we were, I was watching something, but I

412
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: was definitely more concerned, more hidden behind the car. Yeah,

413
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: and I was just really focused on learning the choreography. Yes,

414
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,560
Speaker 1: very professional of me, yes, yes, yes. And so Mercedes

415
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: launches into this whole number because she throws something through

416
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: Kurt's windshield, his paper thin windshield. Yes. Absolutely, And some

417
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 1: of our like BFF dancers were in this number. Hemo

418
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: is in this number, Hanna Hannah who was Beyonce dancer. Um,

419
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 1: it's truly like gangs all here between Vocal Journaline and

420
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: buster Windows. It was every dancer ever And I was

421
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: like yelling at the TV of this morning again. I

422
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 1: was so excited to hear, and we did that on tour.

423
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,199
Speaker 1: She came out and an escalate on tour. I was

424
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,360
Speaker 1: getting ready during this number, so I never really got

425
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:54,120
Speaker 1: to see as much as I probably would have liked UM,

426
00:25:54,200 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: but this was, Yeah, it's a highlight for me. And

427
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: then and then it leads us to the really nice

428
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 1: scene where Mercedes apologizes for throwing you know, busting his

429
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: windows and um throwing something in his Lincoln and that's

430
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: I cheered up and Kurt comes out. Cheered up when

431
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,879
Speaker 1: Kurt came out, And that was a really big deal

432
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:22,920
Speaker 1: because that wasn't seen on TV on network TV especially

433
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: hardly ever, and I think for a teen to do it,

434
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: UM was also a huge deal and to have that

435
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: supported in such a big way like if you're on

436
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,479
Speaker 1: network TV. Back then it was like that was your

437
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:40,640
Speaker 1: way of being exposed to as many viewers as possible,

438
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,400
Speaker 1: or like TV has changed, you know, the landscape has changed.

439
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 1: But back then that was a very very big deal. Um.

440
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 1: I also wanted to, um, make sure we didn't miss

441
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 1: Kevin that there is shirtless shoe in this episode. Yeah,

442
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 1: do you have a time stamp on that? I do

443
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: what I do? It is seven minutes and fifty three seconds.

444
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 1: Are we like three for three? Shirt? Listen every episode

445
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:13,879
Speaker 1: so far thousand per cent. He's um making out Terry

446
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 1: talking about like how being in a boy man was

447
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 1: doing wonders while we know that Terry is actually just

448
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:22,399
Speaker 1: trying to actually get pregnant, you know, as you do

449
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: take your shirt off in addition to bust your windows.

450
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: I I skipped over this before. But going back to

451
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: probably my second favorite scene to shoot was the choir

452
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: room seeing where we are getting berated and insulted in

453
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:42,160
Speaker 1: every horrible way by Dakota Stanley. Um, but I remember

454
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 1: when we shot that, Um, we were having such a

455
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: hard time not breaking the hardest. This was also a

456
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 1: night shoot, like or late at night. I remember it

457
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 1: was like one of our last things up and it

458
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 1: was really hard and he was actually like, wait, was

459
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 1: holding it together so simple, like not a wink, didn't blink. Yeah,

460
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're trying to but it's fine.

461
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,639
Speaker 1: I don't know what he was professional, we were not.

462
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: We could and he was just spitting out these insults

463
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: and these things. I also feel like, um, when Leah

464
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: walks up to him at the end, when they sort

465
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: of realized that the glee club realized that they don't

466
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 1: need him, that what's special about them is that they're

467
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: different and they're not never going to be and this

468
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 1: is important to remember going forward. One thing is that

469
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 1: New Directions is aware that they will never be as

470
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 1: good dancers as Vocal Adrenaline, So when we start competing

471
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: against one another, that makes more sense. And also when

472
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: before she storms out says like and I'm taller than you,

473
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 1: I feel like that must have been and I have it.

474
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: I think it probably was because she She would do

475
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: that a lot at the end of scenes, and they

476
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: were usually pretty funny, very funny. Um. Also, that was

477
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: the first time we heard Franquantine. You remember that dragging

478
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 1: your knuckles on the cropt and Frankintine was Corey's Twitter

479
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:22,520
Speaker 1: handle in the beginning, um, before all of us like

480
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 1: decided to go back to our regular names, which Kevin

481
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: can't because somebody has his handle anyway. Um um. And

482
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 1: and then we get to my favorite scene of the

483
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: whole show episode what's favorite Sue was office Kevin, Oh

484
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 1: my god. Um No, Sue is angry at the Cheerios

485
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 1: Quinn and Santana for um not succeeding in bringing down

486
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 1: the Glee Club so that she can get her budget

487
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 1: back up and um right, and and this is the

488
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,719
Speaker 1: suit quote which will make it into tarty takes because

489
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 1: this is this is the quote of the episode. I'm

490
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 1: going to ask you to smell your armpits. That's the

491
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 1: smell of failure and it's stinking up my office. And

492
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: then Naya brilliantly, brilliantly crying and running out because she

493
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 1: gets her tanning boot. Um tanning privilege, tanning privileges so good.

494
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 1: I also love and that scene to where sus watching

495
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 1: videos of her Cheerios on the TV doing performances, just

496
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 1: replaying factor. There are also some really speaking of great

497
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: quotes anytime um Will Schuster's mother opened her mouth. Um, oh,

498
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 1: Debor Monk with the Debor Monk and Josh grow up

499
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: at the end and she's I've maybe never seen a

500
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: better drunk performance. You know, it is hard to play

501
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: drunk successfully. And she was very good, excellent. I mean,

502
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,959
Speaker 1: that is a masterclass. I didn't have to show my bosoms.

503
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: Why didn't I just get up to the mic and

504
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: grab mite? Did where are your boobies? They're they're melting away. Um. Anyway,

505
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: I asked that because Kevin has boobs from RuPaul's drag Race.

506
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 1: That's where I asked where your boobies were? Well, you know,

507
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 1: we should do speaking of it, we should do a

508
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: little Should we do a mini episode about our experience

509
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 1: on drag Race? Yeah, we let us know, people, let

510
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:32,959
Speaker 1: us know, let us know if you want to hear

511
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, and then go bug Brooklyn Heights and

512
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 1: money exchange and to come on it. Yeah all right, um,

513
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 1: And that's the episode that is no, not so bad.

514
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,440
Speaker 1: And I it was fun that they played with the dynamics.

515
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: There is less Sue in this episode. There's less of

516
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: the kids, but it is nice. Just every once in

517
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: a while, you gotta break it up, you know. Yeah,

518
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: I really I did enjoy seeing like Howard bambooing in

519
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 1: and like Kender Knoka and everybody. I think, just like

520
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: Jennifer Aspen's character at Kendra. Howard Bamboo was also a

521
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: fan favorite for us. We loved Howard Bam and also

522
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 1: a singer like it sounded great in this episode. Right,

523
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: that's right, he's really crushing it. Okay, tardy takes, Tarty takes.

524
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: Um just a reminder for people, Uh, this is our

525
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 1: version of superlatives. So we want to give you our

526
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: takes each week on some of the following categories. Okay,

527
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 1: so let's start with the cringe moment. Honestly dancing, just

528
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 1: the dancing, the straightness of the boy band. The Akafellas

529
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 1: were the second hand embarrassment, but I think that was

530
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: by design and it was beautifully done. Yes, yes, yes,

531
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 1: yes it is intentional. Yeah, it also works for the

532
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: worst dance move again, I mean anything anything they were doing.

533
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: But I do have to point out, um, I remember

534
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: when we watched this performance of I Want to Sex

535
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 1: You Up. When Corey starts singing and he gets that

536
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: little sly like I'm trying to be sexy face. We

537
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 1: were such suckers for that because it was so good

538
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 1: and it was so adorable and so funny. So that

539
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: was one of my best like little moments of the

540
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 1: episode because he sort of did that should intentionally, you know, yeah,

541
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: he was messing with us. What was your favorite song

542
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: in this episode? Bust your windows out the gas viously obviously?

543
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,200
Speaker 1: Um what about the best line we we had that

544
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 1: one to Yeah, smelling your armpits um and the best

545
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 1: performance by a prop. I would say the vomit into

546
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,239
Speaker 1: the trash can? Does that count as a prop? Oh?

547
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: I was going to say the rock that was hit

548
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 1: into the windshield our powers combined. Okay, that's a solid episode.

549
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:12,399
Speaker 1: It's lum ship. That didn't age. Well. Well, here's the thing.

550
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 1: But I think the whole Sandy Ryerson thing of like

551
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 1: not being like is he allowed in the faculty faculty room?

552
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: He's like, I'm just allowed fifty feet near children. It's

553
00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 1: it's like it doesn't work. It wouldn't work, but it's funny.

554
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 1: It just wouldn't work in this day and age, and

555
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 1: it's like, is it funny? I don't know. Am I

556
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,759
Speaker 1: going to get in trouble for that? I don't know. Also,

557
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 1: it was it was funny because of how like uncomfortable

558
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 1: and um improper. It was like we're like, oh, are

559
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 1: we allowed to laugh at this? I don't know, right right, right,

560
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: right right. I do have to say also, the like

561
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 1: insults we got by um Dakota Stanley, those probably were

562
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 1: not that that it's probably not gonna fly um. And

563
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:04,799
Speaker 1: you know, honestly, the thing that h well for me

564
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 1: was like, it's still still works is like Kurt coming

565
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 1: like the Kurt storyline of like coming out, and you know,

566
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 1: it's just that that sweet moment at the end. And

567
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 1: something I really appreciated this time was, um, what Mercedes

568
00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:22,399
Speaker 1: immediately said to him. Immediately, it was like, we are

569
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: your people. You can trust the Glee Club to support

570
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,799
Speaker 1: you exactly who you are. You don't need to feel

571
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 1: ashamed of that where everybody wants a friend like that

572
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 1: and like what a great friend Mercedes was immediately to Kurt.

573
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 1: And I thought that was also very very important to

574
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,240
Speaker 1: to show kids and adults of how to um treat

575
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: the situation and also sets us up for you know,

576
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 1: the Burton Kurt thing coming next episode. Oh my goodness,

577
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I had to actually like pause the

578
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:54,840
Speaker 1: play it automatically went into pragers and I had to

579
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 1: pause it, but I didn't want to because it's so good.

580
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 1: I was saying honorable mention. Best quote was Josh Groban

581
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: loves a blousie alcoholic. I love an honorable mention. They

582
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 1: were just firing firing jokes off in these episodes, truly. Um, Jenna,

583
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: I have a surprise for you. It's your favorite segment. Yeah,

584
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:23,080
Speaker 1: it's ship we found on TikTok. Yes, give it to me. So, UM,

585
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 1: there was this TikToker who pointed out that she wasn't

586
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 1: necessarily sure um if this was intentional or not, Like

587
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:38,319
Speaker 1: these were backhanded like credits that UM Ryan Murphy does

588
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 1: on his show. So for example, in UM in the

589
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: American Horror Story, he one of the credits some of

590
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,319
Speaker 1: people were like pale person number one, Pale Person number two.

591
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 1: And then in Glee, she noticed that, Um, some of

592
00:36:54,880 --> 00:37:01,240
Speaker 1: the Warblers were credited as UM super gay Warbler, Super

593
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 1: gay Warblers, Super gay war There's a whole section of

594
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 1: like Mason trub blood is he was in several episodes

595
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 1: as super gay Warbler. And then there's someone else that

596
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 1: was labeled as other really gay Warbler. So it turns

597
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: out it's true and he does do that for that,

598
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 1: which makes a lot of sense to me because so

599
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: you don't see this on the show obviously, but in

600
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,400
Speaker 1: the scripts, um, I feel like Ian would do this

601
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 1: a lot, and the stage directions he would write in

602
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:36,279
Speaker 1: all these jokes and descriptions of people that would never

603
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 1: be seen on camera. But we're just so funny it

604
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: will make us crack up. So having characters named this

605
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 1: for the resume funny. You know. I'm just still very

606
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 1: impressed with people and how deep of a dive it go.

607
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 1: Me too. That's why if you're on TikTok and you

608
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 1: come across these things and you have questions, d m

609
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,879
Speaker 1: it to our account on TikTok, which is at that's

610
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: what you really missed, and maybe we're gonna talk about it.

611
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 1: We probably will, because we definitely will. This is fun

612
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,799
