Speaker 1: Pop Culture Season seven, Episode eleven, Santa's Secret Stuff. Laurel
Speaker 1: I makes a joke to Rory about driving on the
Speaker 1: other side and have I introduced our intrepid crew Danielle, Romo,
Speaker 1: Suzanne and French. Amy is incapacitated at the moment, but
Speaker 1: she will be joining us ly on the other side
Speaker 1: of the road. And Christopher claims that his joke, Christopher,
Speaker 1: that's my joke. If you just made it, you ripped
Speaker 1: me off. Laurel I, I ripped you. That's like saying
Speaker 1: Lenny Bruce rips off. Carrot Top or Woody Allen gets
Speaker 1: his material from what's his name the Guy with the Watermelons,
Speaker 1: which is Gallagher right. Lenny Bruce was a stand up
Speaker 1: comedian known for his opening critical style of comedy which
Speaker 1: contained satire, politics, religion, sects, and vulgarity. Carrat Top is
Speaker 1: also known as a comedian and actor known for his
Speaker 1: use of prop comedy. Woody Allen is an actor comedian, filmmaker,
Speaker 1: writer whose career spans more than six decades, going on
Speaker 1: to make some of the best comedy films of all time.
Speaker 1: The Guy with the Watermelons is comedian named Gallagher who
Speaker 1: in the eighties used a lot of sledgehammers demolishing watermelons
Speaker 1: that would spray onto the audience. What a concept, What
Speaker 1: a guy?
Speaker 3: Did you know?
Speaker 1: Carratop is a nickname for Scott Thompson. He received the
Speaker 1: nickname from a local swimming coach as a reference to
Speaker 1: his red hair. That is about the least fascinating story
Speaker 1: I have ever heard. A side note, Lenny Bruce was
Speaker 1: an integral character in Amy and Dan's recent show The
Speaker 1: Marvels Missus masl.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought that was interesting that they included that
Speaker 4: Lenny Bruce later became I mean, they didn't write this episode,
Speaker 4: but I definitely thought about that.
Speaker 1: Well, Lenny, Lenny Bruce was a key figure in the
Speaker 1: history of modern culture and comedy. I mean he was
Speaker 1: put on trial, wasn't he. I mean, for God's sake,
Speaker 1: he was banned and prosecuted for his blue material and
Speaker 1: yeah stuff, Yeah, very interesting. He quite a tragic ending
Speaker 1: he had, but he you know he stood out, and
Speaker 1: you know he wouldn't back down anyway. Uh Amy, go
Speaker 1: ahead and take this one.
Speaker 4: Hem's to make her case that she did not celebrate
Speaker 4: Christmas in London without Lorilai. London as a city is
Speaker 4: very Christmas obsessed. Okay, I couldn't help what was going
Speaker 4: on around me, but inside, I assure you as devoid
Speaker 4: of the Christmas spirit, a complete Scrooge. I didn't let
Speaker 4: any Christmas happen. Lorla says, grinched it up so hard.

Speaker 4: about presence.
Speaker 3: WHOA, I didn't know.
Speaker 1: That's interesting.
Speaker 5: Actually, Lorlai believes she needs a muse to write the
Speaker 5: letter for Luke. She says, maybe it would help if
