It's a lifestyle change. 69 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: It's a lifestyle change because we really are sloppy babby girls. 70 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: We really are those girls eating pizza on the couch. 71 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 2: But something about this year, we're almost into February.

But can we remove the stigma on 75 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 2: around meal prep. 76 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: I think we can. 77 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 2: I'm a single, childless gay man. Yeah, I have decisions toge. Yes, 78 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 2: you were mouthing it, and I read your lips. I 79 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 2: feel like it's fine. I'm just cooking for myself and 80 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 2: it's actually quite lovely, and I'm eating nutritious meals. I'm 81 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 2: eating broccoli like never before. I mean, I too have 82 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 2: been consuming a lot of propoly.

It's that thing of like I 84 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 2: think what. 85 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: I was good at this year in terms of resolutions 86 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: is I didn't make that many. And also I'm not 87 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: saying like it has to be this and like sticking 88 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: to it out of ten. I'm like, I'd like it 89 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: to be this. And by putting less pressure on myself, 90 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm able to exercise more and also 91 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 1: able to eat a little bit better just and also 92 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: it can't get more out of control than the second 93 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: half of the year last year for me, so like 94 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 1: it's easy to regain control. But you know, I just 95 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: feel like I would like to enjoy looking over at 96 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: my sister sweating them up. 97 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 2: I am a swetter. 98 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: We have also performed together in high intensity situations many times, 99 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: so that sort of replaces exercise. 100 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 2: We've performed together in high intensity situations. That's true. Now, 101 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 2: speaking of that, let's just put this out there. 102 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. 103 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 2: Matt and I would love to do the Traders. 104 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: We want to do it.

And I know 137 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: that because they say, like a lot of people are 138 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: like no, okay. So here's some peak pine the curtain. 139 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: During the pandemic, I played an online version of Survivor. Yes, 140 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 1: real Katie's and readers that et cetera know that I 141 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: played something called Survivor Quarantine. During the quarantine, yes, and 142 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: I went too hard and made the merge, but was 143 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: voted out immediately in the merge just because I was 144 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 1: essentially the villain of the game. 145 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 2: Are you learn something from that? 146 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: I do think I've learned something and picked up some 147 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: skills from that, and I think that I would be 148 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 1: a better trader than people give me credit for. I 149 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: really do. 150 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: I agree. I must agree Matt is very much a 151 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 2: poverty in the sense that he talks to you and 152 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 2: you feel like he's flirting. And I mean that with 153 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 2: utmost respect that you and part are cut from the 154 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 2: same cloth. 155 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: I'm very perceptive, okay, And I think that the thing 156 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: about me at breakfast is I'm always so excited to 157 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: see everyone so uh huh. You would never be able 158 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: to tell, like when people come in and breakfast like 159 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: and it didn't look like oh like. I just think 160 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: that I'll be able to channel my Matt rogersishness huh 161 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: into being a good trader. And I do think you'd 162 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: be a wonderful, faithful because I think that you have 163 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: a force of personality where people would want to engage 164 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: in your opinions. 165 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 2: I would have a target on my bath. I would 166 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 2: be killed pretty early on. 167 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: I think I don't think you would be killed. I 168 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: think that other idiot faithfuls might try to banish you, 169 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: but they are. 170 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 2: Fools, because my flaw would be that I and again, 171 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 2: am somewhat somewhat quiet. I can be a little quiet, 172 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: bowen just a little, and that would, as we've seen 173 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,559 Speaker 2: in these last in the various iterations of the show, 174 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 2: that becomes a red flag at some point in the 175 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 2: minds of the players. But I do think I would 176 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 2: perceive and pick up on things like I do think 177 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 2: this is probably unfair to say, but like some of 178 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 2: these people are really really off. These faithfuls on these 179 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 2: shows are off. 180 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 1: So they really are, yes, And it makes me feel 181 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: a little crazy because I'm watching it and I'm like, okay, 182 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: so obviously they are not in the position that you 183 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: are in the viewer, which is edited television show where 184 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: you know and can say like, oh, look at her, 185 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,319 Speaker 1: she's being obvious, Oh look at her, she's dumb, da da. 186 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: Obviously it's not that. 187 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 2: Easy, right. 188 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: But I do think that one thing that people are 189 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: forgetting about this particular cast is, of course they weren't 190 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: going to like brush up on the other franchises. These 191 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: people are collectively all on the narcissism scale pretty close 192 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: to Tim, just not well. 193 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: That's why it's a shame that Peppermint got voted out 194 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 2: so early, because I think Peppermint was really a purveyor 195 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 2: of all their shows, like she knew everybody. 196 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think she might have been on the on 197 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: the spectrum of too far that way though, because like 198 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: her personality was really like big, and obviously the way 199 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: that she was voted out was I don't think totally 200 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: above board, but I do think it was a matter 201 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,839 Speaker 1: of time because the thing about Peppermin is like she 202 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: can't really blend in because like she's coming in hot 203 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: with her opinions and how she is a star. She's 204 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: got a big personality, and that's. 205 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 2: Been most people, right, you know. 206 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: I did DM a little bit with Parverty Shallow, Yes, 207 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: who is a former. By the way, if you're new 208 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: to the podcast, Poverty's been on the podcast, and it's 209 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: an episode called Virus Family. This is initially when we 210 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: were very obsessed with her because of her Survivor tenure. 211 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: She came on and I DM with her. She is 212 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: down to come back. So at some point, like either 213 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: when she's voted out or when the season is over, 214 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: hopefully at the end when she wins, you know she'll 215 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: come back. But just look forward to that. Maybe we'll 216 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: try somehow to get that to be an in person episode. 217 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 1: I would love that. Yes, But she said this was 218 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: my first experience with the Housewives and it was wild 219 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: and all caps wild, and I was like, yeah, it's 220 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: kind of crazy to watch their insane social tactics at 221 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 1: play here, and it feels like these gamers have kind 222 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 1: of met their match with the housewives because there's no 223 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,599 Speaker 1: way to plan for. 224 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: Chaos right or for brutal honesty. 225 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: I don't think Phedra coming for poverty is necessarily in 226 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: Parvity's playbook. 227 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: Well it might be the editing, but they cut to 228 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 2: Dan and Parvity in that moment where we're Phedra rightfully 229 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 2: is like, don't do that. I'm playing very fair with y'all. 230 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 2: And then just the kicker, which is her, which is 231 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: her saying both of you like delicious of you, both 232 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 2: of you. Neither of them are used to like to poverty. 233 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 2: Parverty party. 234 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,319 Speaker 1: Everyone thinks you're a trailer, don't do that Poverty. 235 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 2: That was not cool, Parvert. 236 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: I mean, it was definitely an epic moment in television, 237 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 1: and as I was sitting here watching it, I kind 238 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: of thought, Okay, so for Faedra, her game is one 239 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: I need to blend in and now that's kind of 240 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: not possible. That being said, I do think that Parverty 241 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: casting aspersion on the Housewives doesn't make me think of 242 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: Faedra as much as it makes me think of Larsa, 243 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: who she was targeting, and Tamra, who's a lot more vocal. 244 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: So I get why Faedra's upset because her method of 245 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: madness here is a little threatened. But I do think 246 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: she is big dogging them more as a threat for ongoing. 247 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: Then she is like pissed off in the moment because 248 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: it's not that big of a deal. 249 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 2: No, but it does seem apparent in these episodes, in 250 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 2: these four episodes so far, that Dan and Poverty are 251 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 2: pairing off in ways that leave out Faedra. 252 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, they want her. 253 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 2: Out, and that's It's interesting that this moment happened because 254 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 2: I wonder how they respond to this. Either they go 255 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 2: they go, well, then we got to sacrifice Phaedra or 256 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 2: if they if they fucking fly right with her. 257 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think there's two ways they can go. One 258 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: is they can defer to her right now in the turret, 259 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: say Fedra, we're sorry, murder who you want to murder? 260 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: It's now your turn to steer the ship and try 261 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: to make her feel like she's back on board with 262 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: them and allow that to be their path forward for 263 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: eliminating her, because they do want to do that. I'm 264 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: I mean, they've said it like Phaedra's upset actually justifiably 265 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 1: because they do want her out. They do want to 266 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: throw a bone to the faithfulls and like they want 267 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: that to be Fedra great strategy, right, Or they can 268 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: go full destruction mode and turn it on her directly 269 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: and be like, okay, find every every person for themselves 270 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: if you're going to act like this, And then at 271 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: the roundtable, Parvety can literally turn to Fedra and be like, 272 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: why were you acting so defensive when. 273 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 2: I said that? Wait to say that. 274 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: Can throw its space and be like, at the last roundtable, 275 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: you were extremely defensive and even use my name when 276 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: I even threw out there that a housewife could be 277 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: a trader. 278 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 2: Why right? 279 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: Faed's response to that. I mean, I think Faedra could 280 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: absolutely flame Parverty too. 281 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 2: Right, She's very capable. 282 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it's gonna be very interesting. 283 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 2: Has ruined people's lives, That's what we must remember, too. 284 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: Has anyone like if you do a deep dive on Faedra, 285 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: it's like she was Bobby Brown's lawyer. She was married 286 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: to a felon. Her ex husband went to jail for 287 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: what Jenshaw went to jail for. Right, right, She's a 288 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: certainly questionable moral character when you look at how she's 289 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: not on Real Housewives of a Landa anymore, which is 290 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: that she created a rape allegation against Candy based on nothing, 291 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: where she alleged that Candy Burriss and her husband Todd 292 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: Tucker tried to drug and rape Porsche Williams and it 293 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: resulted in one of the most insane reunions of Housewife's history, 294 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: and Faedra was fired. 295 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 2: This is season nine, by the way, for people see 296 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 2: she's a trader. Yeah, I think this is the best 297 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 2: of television. This is the best that television can be. 298 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: The show I'm I wake up, I think about it. 299 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: I feel like that Sondheim song I'm losing my mom 300 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: to me with the traders. You know who I think 301 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: is getting the winners edit? 302 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 2: Who Sandra? 303 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's interesting, she is getting the TV edit of 304 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: a reality show winner. That's very interesting that you say that, 305 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 1: because there are moments where there is a comedy to her, 306 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: and there always has been. 307 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, and this is not to say that we don't 308 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 2: take any of her like we don't take her seriously. 309 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 2: She's a legend, but it's like between like the wound 310 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 2: on her forehead. She's a mafiosa, and she's a mafiosa 311 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 2: and she can absolutely walk away with us and lead 312 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 2: the faithful to victory. I will say I still think 313 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: Dan is not the player he thinks he is, not 314 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 2: the skilled player he thinks he is. I really do. 315 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: I think he has gone up and. 316 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 2: His name's been brought up. Yeah, his name's been brought up. 317 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: His name has been brought up. I do think he's 318 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: gone up in the power rankings. For me, as opposed 319 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: to the first three episodes, I agree with you he 320 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: didn't play well. Then. I think the fact that, like 321 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: here's what I'll say, the fact that Larsa can march 322 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: those housewives over to the board and say let's look 323 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: at the board and say we need to vote out 324 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: to someone out, point to Dan, someone who's she's literally 325 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: voted for before and targeted before and still went for 326 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 1: CT instead means that Dan is positioning himself with shields well, 327 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: and I think that he also has two shields in 328 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: the trader's turret, which especially now, they're going to be 329 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: way bigger targets than him, Like the conversation is not 330 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: going to be on him moving forward, at least I 331 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: don't think for the next couple episodes. 332 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 2: Shields don't protect you from banishment though. 333 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: No, what I'm saying is human shields. What I'm saying 334 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 1: is other competitors using them as shields, like right, right, 335 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: like what they call it in Survivor they call it 336 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: a meat shield, like when you have a when you 337 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: have a someone else in front of you to take 338 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: the bullet. But just to speak about who I think 339 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: is going to win, I still think that's Sandra, because 340 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: I think that maybe this is from me watching so 341 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: much reality television. But from the first episode they have 342 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: made sure she's in the narrative. She always gets shown, 343 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 1: you always know her opinion. They've set up the poverty 344 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: versus Sandra thing. They seem to mention every fifteen minutes 345 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: that Sandra is a stone cold killer. They show Sandra 346 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: flipping the votes against Larsa. They show Sandra ingratiating herself 347 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: with the housewives then flipping the very smart, very smart. 348 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: She also was a viable trader to be recruited. I'm 349 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: just saying, like, if you actually watch it as something, 350 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 1: and it's like a rule of reality television where if 351 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: you go back to the first episode in binch it 352 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,439 Speaker 1: you need to be able to see the winner's arc. 353 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: Sure that is only really there with a few people, 354 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: which are all the current Traders Sandra, and I would 355 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 1: argue Janelle. Yes, And I also think they're setting Peter 356 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: up for something. 357 00:17:53,320 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 2: Yes, that's true. Hmmm. I have really mainlined you can. 358 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: What are your all your thoughts and feelings about UK 359 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 1: UK Traders is also out on Peacock Everybody, and it's 360 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: a really good watch. 361 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 2: It's really good, very different, very different. I there's something 362 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 2: appealing about it being all quote unquote enormies. 363 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, they cast it really well. 364 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 2: The half and half of season one us just didn't 365 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 2: really work. But no, they know that now and I 366 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 2: think it is an incredibly emotional game. 367 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they incredibly am What episode are you one 368 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 1: of UK season two? 369 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 2: I started episode six? 370 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: Okay, great, So what are your thoughts about Claudia. 371 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 2: We're dressing up as for Halloween.

He's giving, like his name is Roger. 398 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 2: The first episode, yeah yeah, he's good. 399 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: And that season is really good too. They cast some 400 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 1: looney birds. 401 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 2: It's Australia. Yeah, I love to my birth country, but 402 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 2: you know, it's a bunch of looney birds. I apparently 403 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 2: Claudia Winkleman is very funny, funny girl. She goes on 404 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 2: these podcasts, she does interviews where she is like cutting up. 405 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: I mean she has big fans in us. 406 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 2: Absolutely, we're new to Claudia Winkleman. We can't wait to 407 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 2: see more. 408 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: I'm so happy you finally watching that season because I 409 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 1: enjoyed it like probably eight months ago and it was 410 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: it was late. I just think the traders in general, 411 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: what a home run, What a win. 412 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 2: For the world, the audience, the world. I mean, how 413 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 2: many of there are many countries. I know there's Belgium. 414 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 2: I know it's like bigger or as big as drag Race. 415 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,160 Speaker 2: I feel like in terms of the international friend. 416 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: It's definitely got international presence. 417 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, like, clearly, how many Traders shows are 418 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 2: there in countries? Twenty countries in territory? Oh wow, yes, yes, yes, yes, 419 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 2: that's crazy. 420 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: And it did just win the Casting Emmy. I think 421 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: that this will be nominated for the Emmys. I think 422 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 1: this is a cultural phenomenon. By the way, it showed 423 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 1: last night on NBC after America's Got Talent, So clearly 424 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: it's big enough where it's not even one of those 425 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,679 Speaker 1: things where Peacock is like, oh, yet's throw this on Bravo. 426 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,160 Speaker 1: It's like on NBC. So pretty cool. 427 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: It's giving flag chat, happy. 428 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: For Allen, happy for everyone involved. Yeah, happy for. 429 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 2: The traits as the Traits has. 430 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: So speaking of winning and losing Traders, let's touch on 431 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: these OSCAR nominations. So the leader, no surprise, was Oppenheimer. 432 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 2: Mm hmm. What are the upstats? Greta? 433 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: You know, I have to say, I'm so bored of 434 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: this conversation about Greta kind of girling because Greta No 435 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: I disappointing every blonde, every blonde and in the United 436 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: States is like, what was I made for today? They're 437 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: just they're having a hard time. I just think, you know, 438 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,719 Speaker 1: she made a movie that was bold and you know, 439 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: did something really new and was so funny and so 440 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 1: culturally important and made over a billion dollars like and 441 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 1: for her to miss out on the director nomination again 442 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: feels like it's just a disappointing, boring conversation to keep having. 443 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: She's obviously one of the most consequential filmmakers out there 444 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: right now. That being said, I don't know who I 445 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: kick out of that director lineup. I'm thrilled for Justine Trier. 446 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 1: I love Anatomy of a Fall. It's just unfortunate. Yeah, yeah, 447 00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. 448 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:05,360 Speaker 2: Actress to actor, very competitive actor, actor, very happy for Coleman, 449 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 2: thrilled and supporting actress bumped me out and supporting actor 450 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 2: kind of confounded me. Look, that's all I'll say. 451 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: I feel that Charles Melton snub is you didn't nominate 452 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 1: the best Supporting performance of that category. I also, I 453 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 1: would say the same about Rachel Best Supporting an Actress. 454 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 1: I would say I miss Rachel mcadam's there. I miss 455 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:33,719 Speaker 1: Julian Moore there. I mean like I think we I 456 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: don't know actors, That's what I would say, and like 457 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: it's can I just say I'm a big America fererra fan. 458 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: I really like America Fererra I always have. I just 459 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: don't think it's an Oscar worthy performance, especially when there 460 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 1: were so many performances that were up there for me 461 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,479 Speaker 1: in terms of like really really challenging, great stuff, and 462 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: feels like she got nominated for that monologue, which you 463 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 1: took care of in the screenplay nomination. I just think 464 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: it's disappointing to see Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie not 465 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: be nominated in director and actress when I don't think 466 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: those were easy things to pull off. And clearly the 467 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 1: movie was beloved in other areas, but it actually didn't 468 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: do as well overall as I thought it would. 469 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 2: Barbie, Yeah, surprising, Or you're saying you're bored of the 470 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 2: entire conversation around the film. 471 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 1: No, not that. I'm just this thing with Greta Gerwig 472 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 1: missing for director is boring to me because it's just 473 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: like we're still having this conversation, like she deserves to 474 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: be nominated for this movie. I don't know who misses 475 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: out again, Like, I don't know you could. 476 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 2: Have seen a snub coming based on precursors. 477 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, I had a sneaking submission. Submission. I had a sneak. 478 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: Sneaking submission is titled me when people Think I'm a 479 00:24:55,880 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: top Oh No, I don't know. I had a suspicion 480 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 1: just because they've they've bumped her from that category before. 481 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: I was just disappointed, right, you know what I mean, 482 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: like because I think her efforts merit. You know, a 483 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: nomination there, the Sterling K. Brown nomination, and. 484 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 2: I don't know about that. 485 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 1: It just really doesn't make sense to me. 486 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 2: Was Greta's director nomination for Ladybird? For Ladybird, not Little Women? 487 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: I see? Yeah, I would have loved Charles to have 488 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 2: gotten in there, that's all. Yeah, and Natalie and Julie 489 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 2: and I really think those were really compelling performances. 490 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 1: Actors really said this year going the easy route, like 491 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: and even this Innette Banning nomination, She's not gonna win people, 492 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: It's like, and also I don't believe that that performance 493 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,640 Speaker 1: looking back is going to be like Oh yeah, wow. 494 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: Remember twenty twenty three. Remember Niad, No no one remembers Niad. 495 00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, Jody and America in supporting is tough for me. 496 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I just I just. 497 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: You know, it's nothing against again.

There's just countless count I mean, 502 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: even Taraji in color. 503 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 2: Purple, Taraji, Rachel McAdams, Yeah, Julianne. The actress categories were 504 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 2: incredibly competitive, as usual. I don't know, it's just this 505 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,199 Speaker 2: was this was a really packed here for the girls. 506 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean there was, there was great things. I mean, 507 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 1: I'm thrown for an Anatomy of a Fall. I love 508 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: that Sondra Huler was nominated. 509 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 2: Yes, love that. 510 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: I mean I also think that script is so amazing 511 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: and her performance is great, and you know, it's we'll 512 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: see it just feels like it's locked up a little 513 00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,199 Speaker 1: bit too, you know what I mean, Like if I 514 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 1: had to predict, Enjoy Randolph is winning feels like Robert 515 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: Junior is winning. 516 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 2: Feels like Killian is winning, or Ki and Paul Killian 517 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 2: and Paul is very interesting. 518 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: That's a race. I would say, that's a race. Yeah, 519 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: I would vote for Paul Giamati. 520 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 2: I really loved Paul, and then Emma's is locked for 521 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 2: for actress. 522 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: It feels like Emma and Lily. 523 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 2: Right, that's a race. That's a good race. 524 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's there's some races for sure. I think Oppenheimer 525 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 1: will win best Pitch. I think it'll end up feeling 526 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: more anti climactic. Yes, then we thought, or it could have. 527 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 1: I mean, ultimately Oppenheimer is sweeping the thing. 528 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, but Poor Things getting coming in second with the 529 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 2: number of noums is pretty cool to me. I really 530 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 2: Poor Things my favorite. As you all know, I am 531 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,679 Speaker 2: excited to watch Oppenheimer soon to completion. I still have not. 532 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 2: As you know, Matt and I did leave the theater. 533 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 1: Yes, we just because we were like, we get it, 534 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 1: we get it, so we kind of. I haven't even 535 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: seen when allegedly Emily Blunt and Robert Downey Junior's performances 536 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: get good, you know what I mean? All year, I've 537 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 1: been like, oh, I've been waiting for years for Emily 538 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: Blunt to get an Oscar nomination for years and now 539 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: she gets one, and I'm like, oh, but like I 540 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 1: didn't make it to the part or the movie where 541 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: apparently she was good. Same with Robert Downey Junior. And also, 542 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: you know what, they're both icons. And I'm not mad 543 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: at anyone's nomination. I'm happy for everyone. I'm just bummed 544 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: for people that got left off. 545 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 2: Yeah. Same, there are a lot of snubs. There are 546 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 2: more snubs than I thought there would be. 547 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 1: I was wondering lest night. I was like, is this 548 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: going to be a straightforward morning or a chaotic morning? 549 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 2: I think it was pretty chaotic. 550 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 1: It was chaotic a lot of times, like things will 551 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: pop up and I'd be like, whoa, huh, We're going 552 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: for it this morning, aren't we. 553 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 554 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: I can't stand Maestro. I can't stand that movie. And 555 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: I really feel like we're so lazy and boring forgiving 556 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: it as much as we gave it. Like it's just 557 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: who loves that movie? You loved Maestro? Reach out. 558 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 2: I just want to talk, just talk to Matt because 559 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 2: that was another one that I haven't sat through. I'm bad. 560 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 2: I'm bad. I'd rather watched the traders every time. 561 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: It's one hundred percent understandable. Did you watch Salt Lake? 562 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 2: I did. 563 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 1: Let's touch on it. 564 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 2: I mean, the Monica thing is it made my head 565 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 2: spin the number of times she contradicted herself within seconds 566 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 2: or on a larger scale, never once took accountability for anything, 567 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 2: even with like the admission quote unquote of her being 568 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 2: one of the people who was involved in Rihanny Avante's 569 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 2: it's still extremely There's no purchase there, there's no grip there, 570 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 2: there's no like it's slippery. She makes it slippery on purpose, 571 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 2: and she like lies on herself within sentences. She's very 572 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 2: emotionally stunted. She's she's an unwe person. I don't think 573 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 2: she should come back, but I have it on too 574 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 2: it authority that she will. I don't know if I 575 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 2: will like the next season if it, if it's as 576 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 2: nasty and ugly as this reunion was, And that's my 577 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 2: main thought. And the Heather stuff was interesting too, and 578 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 2: the way that Andy kind of took her to task 579 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 2: in a way that was respectful but ultimately valid. 580 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, she was in trouble. Yeah, I mean he really 581 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: held her feet to the fire for that and for 582 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: good reason, because, to be honest with you, I had 583 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: never even thought about what. 584 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 2: She was insinuating about production. 585 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, and here's what I'll say. I want to come 586 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: at this with some sympathy and empathy for Monica because 587 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: I believe she acts like a fourteen year old because 588 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: she's stuck there. I have a lot of sympathy for 589 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: what her mother treats her like. I mean, like that 590 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: that seems like such a toxic, terrible atmosphere. She's obviously 591 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:07,239 Speaker 1: not got a relationship with any paternal figure. She's a 592 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: divorced woman, you know what I mean. I think that 593 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: she probably did want to improve her station in life, 594 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: and I think she probably was abused by Genshaw. And 595 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: I actually think that at the end of the reunion, 596 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: her place on this cast, to me, is more uncertain 597 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: than I thought it was, because I would have thought 598 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: she's done now. I actually think if Heather can somehow 599 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: get over this and Monica can stop being so defensive, 600 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 1: they actually have a place to start, which is that 601 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: they were both abused by this person. 602 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 603 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: I thought the allegations were one thing, and then the 604 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: explanation of what really happened with Genshaw and the black guy. 605 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 1: You know, I understand why she was scared. I do 606 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: think that Genshaw is a scary person. I thought she 607 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: was scary just to watch imagine being with her and like, yeah, 608 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: the way she would just pop off and get in 609 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: people's faces, the look she would get in her eye. 610 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: And what I really resent is that whenever she was 611 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 1: called out for that, she always made it about like, 612 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: you can't say that about brown and black women. And 613 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: it's like, I'm sorry, but that is so disgusting of 614 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 1: you to hide behind that. Meanwhile, you are someone who 615 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: is physically violent and dangerous in your activity like that 616 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: is so that's like a very real thing that black 617 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: and brown women and women of color have to deal with, 618 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: and you weaponize that to shut people down so that 619 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: they would continue to fear you. And I just think 620 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: that's disgusting. I think she's obviously a disgusting person inside 621 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: and out. And at the end of the reunion, when 622 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: they were all like holding each other and crying, and 623 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: Andy said, can we all just really realize the fact 624 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: that this person was like an asteroid? 625 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 2: We're still cleaning up her mess, That's what he said. 626 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 2: We're still keeping up And then. 627 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 1: I thought it was powerful when Heather addressed her yeah, 628 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And I think ultimately when 629 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 1: the rest of the women came to her defense and said, 630 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,959 Speaker 1: I understand why Heather did what she did. I understand, 631 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: you know, you do see why this show ultimately has 632 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 1: ended up being a great show, which is that there is 633 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: that sisterhood there and that understanding. And I also believe 634 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: that we're actually able to get with this franchise to 635 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 1: an emotional truth. 636 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, you know what I'm saying. 637 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,160 Speaker 1: It's like, ultimately, at the end of the season, which 638 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: was one of the best seasons, we're able to really 639 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: start talking about like something real about. 640 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 2: The things that bring women like this together, right, which 641 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 2: is honestly, the comparison has been made. It's big little lies. 642 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 2: It's like someone who has abused and caused tremendous pain 643 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:56,959 Speaker 2: on multiple levels. It's so funny, like Genshaw is the 644 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 2: what's his face card the end er, not Peter sorry, 645 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 2: Alexander's stars Guard. I get my stars Guards mixed up. 646 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: You got your Peter stars Guard and your Alexander Scarter. 647 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 1: Don't even bring Bill Scarsguard into this. They will be 648 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: a scar I thought Monica seemed very defeated at the 649 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: end of the reunion, which I refuse to believe was 650 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,879 Speaker 1: her final act. And I think she'll be back. She'll 651 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 1: be back because I think that the way they put 652 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: it together, if I had to guess, is that Mary's 653 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,879 Speaker 1: coming back. That's the way for Monica to come back. 654 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: And I think that there will be a Mary Whitney conversation. 655 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: And I think if Monica has a path forward with someone. 656 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,839 Speaker 2: It's Whitney, it's Whitney. Although can I say, I think 657 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 2: you're totally right, I am personally sort of done with Mary. 658 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 2: I don't think the entertainment value is sustainable. Brick Ashley 659 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 2: actually made a great point about this. I think she 660 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 2: like themed her whole retap on this. It's like Mary 661 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 2: being that rude and that toxic honestly, not in the 662 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 2: same way as Jen, but like Mary being cruel, and 663 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 2: she is cruel. It's not fun to watch anymore, I 664 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 2: would agree. And the way these women talk to her 665 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 2: and Andy talks to her, it's like she is in 666 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 2: an institution. 667 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: I also think people are forgetting a lot about her, 668 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 1: about Mary, about what she's done, yeah and been like 669 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 1: on this show, there's a reason why Whitney used the 670 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: word predator about her. I'm not alleging anything. I'm just 671 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 1: saying there is a reason why, because there was a 672 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:48,320 Speaker 1: lot wrong with what I saw on that television show 673 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 1: in regards to Mary's church and the way they treated her. 674 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 1: Go back and watch the episode where Jenshaw visits Mary 675 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: at the church. 676 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 2: The power structure of that place is dark. 677 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 1: Problematic, and for Mary to throw around racism, which you 678 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 1: know she's entitled to do. But I'm sorry, but I 679 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: seem to remember her speaking in a comical Asian accent 680 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:21,240 Speaker 1: about Ms Jenny to like, Mary is not above board, 681 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: and she's always been who she's been. Yes, it's sometimes 682 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,879 Speaker 1: funny because it's crazy that she'll just come out and 683 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 1: call someone in bread and chubby and fat, and she'll 684 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,879 Speaker 1: just say these things like and she seems to get 685 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 1: away with it because no one seems to know how 686 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,400 Speaker 1: to handle it, and therefore it lands under or it 687 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 1: gets filtered under comedy ha ha ha. But it is 688 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: just me and I have a feeling that if she 689 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: were on a cast with people who could like actually 690 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 1: handle her verbally and weren't just in shock, like you know, 691 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: because none of these women can read, none of these 692 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 1: women can like tear her apart with words like so 693 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 1: she kind of just gets carte blanche. If she were 694 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: on the cast with someone that could like stand up 695 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: to her for real, we wouldn't be like as entertained 696 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: by it because it would get called out for being 697 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: what it is. 698 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:16,280 Speaker 2: Right, which is bad. 699 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 700 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 2: So those are my thoughts on Salt Lake And what else? 701 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 1: Is there? More current events? Or are you diving back 702 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: in time? 703 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 2: I've started True Detectives. Oh yeah, and it's good so far. 704 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 2: It's the Jody songs.

She was going 839 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 2: from this like euro trash adjacent aesthetic of the Fame 840 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 2: into like, I'm gonna look like Marilyn or I'm gonna like, look, 841 00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 2: I'm gonna really start doing my Madonna drag. And it 842 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 2: was when she started doing these interviews where she was like, 843 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 2: you're judgmental that I'm promiscuous of my songs, But if 844 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 2: I were a guy grabbing my crotch talking about fucking girls, 845 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,279 Speaker 2: you'd call me a rock star. I'm just a rock star. 846 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 2: That is a huge, huge cultural moment for I think 847 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 2: a lot of people to hear a pop star who 848 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 2: was deeply intelligent, deeply studied, deeply aware of like the 849 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 2: things that have led up to her career and to 850 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:03,240 Speaker 2: say that to some asshole who was like, your songs 851 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 2: are about sex, Like what do you like, how do 852 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 2: you feel about that? She's like, I don't feel anything 853 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:12,160 Speaker 2: about that. It's not revolutionary. I'm just a rock star. 854 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 2: That's so powerful to me. 855 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think people didn't know what to do with her, 856 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 1: but knew they had to do something with her because 857 00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:25,879 Speaker 1: she was so undeniable. I mean, I will never forget. 858 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 1: It was like Just Dance came out, and I wasn't 859 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:35,879 Speaker 1: a huge Just Dance fan. For me, I got poker Face, 860 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, okay, I would have thought that 861 00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:41,319 Speaker 1: Lady Gaga looking the way she looked, because remember when 862 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 1: she came out, everyone was like, oh, she's ripping off 863 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 1: Christina Aguilera Bionic. That's so because it was like Christina 864 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:54,479 Speaker 1: had like a very similar aesthetic with the Bionic era, 865 00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:56,440 Speaker 1: like the keeps getting better of it all and like 866 00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:58,840 Speaker 1: the not myself tonight of it all, Like that was 867 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,800 Speaker 1: sort of gaga ish at a time when Gaga was doing, 868 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:04,840 Speaker 1: you know, the early days of Gaga the fame, and 869 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 1: that was they were they were speaking to each other esthetically, 870 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 1: and then it would become so clear that Gaga was 871 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 1: her own thing when poker Face came out and it 872 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:18,359 Speaker 1: was like, you know this like ode to bisexuality and 873 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,960 Speaker 1: like this like a bizarre melody and this weird hook 874 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 1: and this insane sort of like you know, she was 875 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:30,200 Speaker 1: hinting at insanity weirdly in her interviews, and everyone was like, 876 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 1: what does she really look like because this was during 877 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:35,880 Speaker 1: the era when no one really knew what she looked like. 878 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:40,759 Speaker 1: And then what really got me speak of Alexander Scarsgard 879 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:45,480 Speaker 1: again was parazzo, paparazzi, paparazzi. Oh, because I also loved 880 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:49,479 Speaker 1: love game paparazzi. For me, I was like, oh God, 881 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:52,359 Speaker 1: something's happening. Something got it and I remember, you know, 882 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:57,319 Speaker 1: say what you want. But Perez Hilton was all over her. 883 00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 1: He was like, this is the new princess of pa 884 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 1: mark my words, this is her. And I was like, 885 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 1: all right, it feels like we're being like forced fed 886 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: her a little bit. And then it was so clear 887 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 1: like okay, get on board or be lame, and I 888 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 1: just I remember I decided to be lame because I 889 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,400 Speaker 1: was not ready for it. I've said it on this podcast, 890 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 1: like if you don't love Gaga, you don't love yourself. 891 00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 1: I did not love myself at that time. I was 892 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 1: learning too. 893 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 2: You would just come out. There is a developmental latency 894 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:34,120 Speaker 2: around reaching that, reaching that sort of place, and I 895 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,399 Speaker 2: think a couple of years later, Gaga comes out with 896 00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 2: these missives about self love that we'll get into. So 897 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 2: we'll get into another time, but there's Gaga, Nicki Minaj, 898 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 2: beam Me Up. Scotti comes out in two thousand and 899 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 2: nine as well. This is a hugely important This is 900 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:58,600 Speaker 2: a hugely important year. Let's keep going, should we talk about. 901 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:00,360 Speaker 1: We should also say two thousand and nine and like 902 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:02,960 Speaker 1: just to speak on this which is essentially a Swifty podcast. 903 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 1: This was Fearless winning album of the year. This was 904 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift. This was truly the beginning of her superstardom 905 00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 1: because she had been a Country Musical Award winner and 906 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 1: country music star and now she was legitimately household name status, 907 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:24,320 Speaker 1: which I think you know also speaks to the Kanye 908 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:25,919 Speaker 1: West of it all. That was one of the big 909 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,480 Speaker 1: cultural moments of the year. Kanye West storming the stage 910 00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:33,080 Speaker 1: that would have ripple effects for decades, and he was 911 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: also speaking up in protest of Beyonce's loss, which this 912 00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 1: was also a big moment for Beyonce because this was 913 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 1: really the end of Beyonce as Matthew Knowles sort of 914 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 1: let's call her like a pop star in the way 915 00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:55,880 Speaker 1: of like you'd always see pop stars like this, you know, 916 00:48:55,920 --> 00:49:00,720 Speaker 1: I Am Sasha Fierras was Beyonce's last like conveyor belt album. 917 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:06,360 Speaker 1: It was great, but it wasn't like the artistic sensations 918 00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 1: that would come later, like with four, which was point 919 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 1: with the self title, which et cetera, which you know 920 00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:15,439 Speaker 1: she became. She became Beyonce two point zero or even 921 00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 1: three point zero after I Am Sasha Fierce. But this 922 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:20,759 Speaker 1: was the year of single, Ladies and Halo, and this 923 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:24,360 Speaker 1: was Beyonce in that first imperial phase. 924 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 2: Mm hmmmm hmmm. Let's say this best selling album, Fearless 925 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 2: would win Album of the Year at the Grammys. Record 926 00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 2: of the Year, you use Somebody by Kings of Leon, 927 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 2: the Song of the Year single Ladies put a Ring 928 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:41,920 Speaker 2: on It, Best New Artist Zach Brown Band, Most Awards 929 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 2: Beyonce one six at the Grammys. And you said main 930 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,799 Speaker 2: History is the winningest female artist in a night. Does 931 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:47,880 Speaker 2: she still hold that record? 932 00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 1: I think so, because I think they've also changed it 933 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,800 Speaker 1: so that it would be pretty impossible for an artist 934 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 1: to win six Awards in a night because this was 935 00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 1: the time where there was, like you know, there was 936 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 1: like Best Female Pop Vocal and Best Male Pop Vocal, 937 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 1: whereas now it's Best Solo Pop Vocal. It's like right right, 938 00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 1: They've done a lot of changing with the categories, I 939 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:12,279 Speaker 1: think because it was so easy for people to win 940 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:17,000 Speaker 1: so many. Also, I just want to say, in terms 941 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:20,120 Speaker 1: of you Somebody, do you want to know the first 942 00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 1: time I ever heard the song use Somebody? Was it 943 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:30,000 Speaker 1: at a hammertatched show? No, it was at Saturday Night Live. Oh, 944 00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:34,719 Speaker 1: I went on the standby line. So we've talked about 945 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:36,839 Speaker 1: this on the pod. But and this is one thing 946 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 1: I forgot to say when I talked about this with 947 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:43,880 Speaker 1: Seth Myers. So show No, it was James Franco and 948 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:44,640 Speaker 1: Kings of Leon. 949 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 2: Uh huh. 950 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 1: And do you know who I sat next to in 951 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 1: the audience. 952 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:49,719 Speaker 2: You've told me before, but this is going to blow 953 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:50,200 Speaker 2: my mind again. 954 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:55,400 Speaker 1: Emma Stone. Oh my god, Amma Stone. Was had only 955 00:50:55,600 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 1: been in super Bad, and I remember no one read 956 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:03,160 Speaker 1: recognized her, but I because I loved super Bad and 957 00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 1: I loved Emstone in it. And I'm telling you she 958 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:11,440 Speaker 1: was sitting next to her boyfriend at the time, Teddy Geiger. Wow. 959 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:16,920 Speaker 1: So I remember when the taping was over, like everyone 960 00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:18,800 Speaker 1: was getting up and it was so major, and I 961 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 1: remember you Somebody had come on, and I remember being like, wait, 962 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 1: that song was kind of great, Like I had never 963 00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 1: heard that, Like I had, I knew Sex on Fire 964 00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:27,440 Speaker 1: by Kings of Leon. So they performed Sex on Fire 965 00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:29,960 Speaker 1: and they name Somebody and I was like, whoa, that 966 00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:33,359 Speaker 1: song is kind of a smash, and then they were 967 00:51:33,400 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 1: great and it would go on to win Record of 968 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 1: the Year, as you just said. But I was sitting 969 00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,279 Speaker 1: next to Emistone and I remember at the und when 970 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 1: everyone was getting up to file out, so many people 971 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:46,400 Speaker 1: stopped Teddy Geiger for a picture. I think Emmastone might 972 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:52,680 Speaker 1: have been taking photos for her fans. You know, Teddy 973 00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:56,719 Speaker 1: transitioned and become, you know, more of like a songwriter. 974 00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 1: I think she works with Sewn Mendes a lot now, 975 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:02,560 Speaker 1: but this was a time they were dating. I sat 976 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 1: next to them, That's wild and watched Kings of leannperformed 977 00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,720 Speaker 1: You Somebody at a show that would change the course 978 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 1: of my life in terms of what I was pursuing, 979 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:17,320 Speaker 1: and would ultimately be a show that my best friend 980 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:19,839 Speaker 1: was the star of and I would also meet him 981 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:20,200 Speaker 1: that year. 982 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,000 Speaker 2: It just this is and I was. 983 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 1: Coming out and like all these things, Like just. 984 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:32,600 Speaker 2: Can I say this segment is already amazing not to 985 00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:36,399 Speaker 2: pat ourselves on the back. I love this so much 986 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 2: because I mean, we'll get to a point where we 987 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,319 Speaker 2: do a year that like we weren't even born in 988 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 2: and we won't have this personal connection to it as much. 989 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 2: But who's this who's to say? I mean, this is 990 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 2: Emma Stone. By the way, Culture Awards Accolyte fan Well 991 00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:54,920 Speaker 2: should be saying she was almost going to show up 992 00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:56,400 Speaker 2: to last year's ceremony. 993 00:52:56,640 --> 00:53:00,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, we were. We actually almost had Emma Stone to 994 00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 1: the Cultural Awards. Talks fell apart at the last minute 995 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 1: because I believe there was a hair dying situation. I 996 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 1: think she had just dyed her hair and she was 997 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 1: concerned about quote unquote looking crazy.

One hospital drama falls another reign supreme, and 1329 01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:56,760 Speaker 1: I think Gray's Anatomy has kind of eaten ER. 1330 01:10:56,880 --> 01:11:00,799 Speaker 2: Now, well it is, I think they announce at the Emmys. 1331 01:11:00,880 --> 01:11:03,439 Speaker 2: It is now in its twentieth season.

American Idol winners Chris Allen with runner up 1334 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:11,839 Speaker 2: Adam Lambert. 1335 01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:14,640 Speaker 1: Wow, this was also a time when American Idol was 1336 01:11:14,680 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 1: the number one show and it was not close. This 1337 01:11:17,439 --> 01:11:21,920 Speaker 1: was still the era of and also not for nothing, 1338 01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:24,639 Speaker 1: but Adam Lambert on American Idol was. 1339 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:27,120 Speaker 2: Also a gay moment revelationary. 1340 01:11:27,439 --> 01:11:30,920 Speaker 1: I remember he performed Feeling good on American Idol, and 1341 01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:34,599 Speaker 1: I remember he wore like a white suit and walked 1342 01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:38,720 Speaker 1: his gay ass slowly down a huge staircase, and I 1343 01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:44,360 Speaker 1: remember being like, this gay guy is turning up on 1344 01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:49,679 Speaker 1: this show and he will not win, but lo and behold. 1345 01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:53,040 Speaker 2: But he didn't win, But like, but he did, but 1346 01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:56,639 Speaker 2: he has the cultural staying power that like Chris Allen didn't. 1347 01:11:57,560 --> 01:11:59,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, isn't that Interestingly? I feel like Chris Allen winning 1348 01:11:59,920 --> 01:12:05,040 Speaker 1: American Idol like certainly speaks to the fact that we 1349 01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:09,000 Speaker 1: were well, It's like he was definitely talented, but it 1350 01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:10,960 Speaker 1: wasn't what Adam Lambert could do. 1351 01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:12,880 Speaker 2: But then, like I think before the end of the year, 1352 01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:15,719 Speaker 2: Adam Lambert did come out with his album but y'all 1353 01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:19,759 Speaker 2: entertain man? Oh yeah, that was a county album, Cunty County. 1354 01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:21,000 Speaker 1: What do you want from Me? 1355 01:12:21,840 --> 01:12:22,480 Speaker 2: Wow? 1356 01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:24,600 Speaker 1: Originally for Pink Wow. 1357 01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:27,879 Speaker 2: Paula Abdul's stepped down as judge. Her replacement is announced 1358 01:12:27,880 --> 01:12:31,799 Speaker 2: as Ellen DeGeneres l Ol that did not go good, 1359 01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:35,200 Speaker 2: No eer erited series finale, as we said, Matt TV 1360 01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:38,680 Speaker 2: edited series finale. Oprah announced that she will end her 1361 01:12:38,840 --> 01:12:43,240 Speaker 2: talk show in twenty eleven. Yeah, okay, very interesting. 1362 01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:45,800 Speaker 1: And then obviously like you can't really talk about two 1363 01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:48,120 Speaker 1: thousand and nine without talking about two things. And I 1364 01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:51,840 Speaker 1: would say that's like death of Michael Jackson. I think 1365 01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:56,479 Speaker 1: we all remember where we were, yep, and Obama being 1366 01:12:56,520 --> 01:13:00,519 Speaker 1: fucking sworn in, Like the Obama story is more two 1367 01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:04,960 Speaker 1: thousand and eight, right, Like I just remember that feeling like, 1368 01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:07,439 Speaker 1: and it's it's really interesting. We pulled this year out 1369 01:13:07,520 --> 01:13:10,439 Speaker 1: for so many reasons because it did feel like when 1370 01:13:10,479 --> 01:13:12,840 Speaker 1: he became president, like it was sworn in and that 1371 01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:14,360 Speaker 1: you were starting, and it felt like there was so 1372 01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:18,320 Speaker 1: much good news about like same sex marriage being embraced 1373 01:13:18,320 --> 01:13:21,000 Speaker 1: around the country and him even starting to embrace it, 1374 01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:24,040 Speaker 1: and just maybe it was us being at NYU and 1375 01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:26,839 Speaker 1: like us like finding our ways out of the closet 1376 01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:30,160 Speaker 1: or getting there or being halfway in out whatever. This 1377 01:13:30,280 --> 01:13:34,520 Speaker 1: year really felt like there was so much promise and potential, 1378 01:13:34,600 --> 01:13:36,479 Speaker 1: even with Gaga, you know what I mean. It's like 1379 01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:40,479 Speaker 1: this new fucking like throwback to David Bowie that's coming out, 1380 01:13:40,520 --> 01:13:47,719 Speaker 1: like Obama being elected, like so much culturally encouraging stuff. 1381 01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:54,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I wish I internalized that optimism more because 1382 01:13:54,920 --> 01:13:58,160 Speaker 2: I feel like I've really forgotten that the literal emotion 1383 01:13:58,280 --> 01:13:59,639 Speaker 2: of that. But well it's. 1384 01:13:59,520 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 1: Easy to now, of course, remember being optimistic. How sad 1385 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:04,439 Speaker 1: is that? 1386 01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:07,559 Speaker 2: How sad is that? Where were you and Michael Jackson died? 1387 01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:10,679 Speaker 1: I was at work? Me too. I was at work. 1388 01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:15,000 Speaker 1: I was working at a seafood restaurant on Long Island. 1389 01:14:15,720 --> 01:14:20,080 Speaker 1: It was a very interesting time because, like I said, 1390 01:14:20,120 --> 01:14:23,040 Speaker 1: I was in a relationship or something that I was 1391 01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:25,200 Speaker 1: keeping a secret with someone I worked with and was 1392 01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:28,560 Speaker 1: much older than me. And I remember Michael Jackson. I 1393 01:14:28,560 --> 01:14:30,519 Speaker 1: found out he died at work. And then also the 1394 01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:32,560 Speaker 1: funeral was playing when I was at work, and I 1395 01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:36,200 Speaker 1: remember we weren't playing music, we were just playing the 1396 01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:39,320 Speaker 1: funeral and we would never do that for anyone else 1397 01:14:39,760 --> 01:14:42,280 Speaker 1: With Michael Jackson. Yeah, it was I mean, it was 1398 01:14:42,439 --> 01:14:47,840 Speaker 1: the death of Beyond a cultural icon. And this was 1399 01:14:47,880 --> 01:14:52,280 Speaker 1: a really interesting time too because everyone was it was 1400 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:55,960 Speaker 1: like worldwide grief. But also there's that weirdness in the 1401 01:14:56,000 --> 01:15:00,360 Speaker 1: air about like the fact that he had you know, 1402 01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:05,000 Speaker 1: it was like the allegations of him and his predatory 1403 01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:09,040 Speaker 1: behavior was really also hanging in there right. 1404 01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:11,880 Speaker 2: Well, it was just it was tragedy on top of 1405 01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:15,920 Speaker 2: tragedy on top of tragedy between like his upbringing and 1406 01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:21,000 Speaker 2: then the way that death transpired in the way and 1407 01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:27,160 Speaker 2: like his legacy being very compromised. It was just layers 1408 01:15:27,360 --> 01:15:29,200 Speaker 2: of devastation. 1409 01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:34,400 Speaker 1: You remember Nicki Minaja's iconic lyric like MJ Doctor the 1410 01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:35,200 Speaker 1: killing me. 1411 01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:40,400 Speaker 2: Prope a fall, They really hope a fall. 1412 01:15:51,680 --> 01:15:54,800 Speaker 1: This also was the year we lost Britney Murphy. Hmm. 1413 01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:58,320 Speaker 2: I was about's library when that happened, when I heard, 1414 01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:02,280 Speaker 2: Oh my god, I know sad for many reasons. 1415 01:16:02,960 --> 01:16:05,400 Speaker 1: Sonya sot of my Oars swown in as a subreom 1416 01:16:05,400 --> 01:16:08,000 Speaker 1: court justice. She would go on to speak at our 1417 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:11,360 Speaker 1: graduation and then we forget her first words. 1418 01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:16,360 Speaker 2: This is awesome, This is awesome. Yeah, it's so good 1419 01:16:16,400 --> 01:16:17,840 Speaker 2: to be in the Bronx. 1420 01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:24,639 Speaker 1: Sonia Soniah. Yeah. Natasha Richardson passed, so did be Arthur 1421 01:16:24,720 --> 01:16:30,360 Speaker 1: and Farah Fawcet. Not a good year for actresses living. 1422 01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:33,479 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was the vice president. Democrats had a fifty 1423 01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,639 Speaker 1: nine seat majority in the Senate. We missed that Sarah 1424 01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:42,800 Speaker 1: Palin resigned as governor. A political storm. 1425 01:16:43,920 --> 01:16:46,639 Speaker 2: At large. I like this section. Read some of these. 1426 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:50,840 Speaker 1: The Walt Disney Company acquires Marvel Entertainment. This at the 1427 01:16:50,880 --> 01:16:53,040 Speaker 1: time didn't feel like a big deal because this was 1428 01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:55,360 Speaker 1: a time when like DC was sort of slang and 1429 01:16:55,400 --> 01:16:58,639 Speaker 1: Marvel was kind of flopped, like no one was checking 1430 01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:02,479 Speaker 1: for Marvel. But also Iron Man had just come out, 1431 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:04,120 Speaker 1: and like there was a little bit of a tickle 1432 01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:05,479 Speaker 1: in the Marvel idea. 1433 01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:08,280 Speaker 2: Well, there was a lot of importance around this at 1434 01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:11,479 Speaker 2: the time. Like I remember reading so many pieces on 1435 01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:14,320 Speaker 2: like I think it was a Kotaku or like Gker. 1436 01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:17,000 Speaker 2: I mean, Gawker is like that is two thousand and nine, 1437 01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:20,360 Speaker 2: the house doone, the house down, like Gawker.

It 1584 01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:10,479 Speaker 2: was that was a very different the etiquette, the rules 1585 01:25:10,640 --> 01:25:14,439 Speaker 2: of engagement on these apps was I mean, not that 1586 01:25:14,479 --> 01:25:18,040 Speaker 2: it's gotten that much more orderly, and it's fine, it 1587 01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:19,800 Speaker 2: doesn't have to be, but like back then, it was 1588 01:25:19,880 --> 01:25:21,639 Speaker 2: the wild wild West. 1589 01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:25,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would imagine you experienced a lot of abuse 1590 01:25:25,680 --> 01:25:26,240 Speaker 1: on there. 1591 01:25:26,160 --> 01:25:28,800 Speaker 2: One thousand percent and like Asian people really I think 1592 01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:31,479 Speaker 2: like took it, took it. It's so wild. 1593 01:25:32,240 --> 01:25:34,080 Speaker 1: But that was that was the beginning of Grinder, and 1594 01:25:34,200 --> 01:25:40,479 Speaker 1: like it just you learned within and for any gay 1595 01:25:40,560 --> 01:25:44,000 Speaker 1: man or for anyone who used that app, m hm, 1596 01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:49,559 Speaker 1: you learned pretty quickly what the value system was, m right, 1597 01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:52,320 Speaker 1: in a way that like you didn't necessarily understand if 1598 01:25:52,320 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 1: you went to like a gay bar or if you 1599 01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:57,919 Speaker 1: watched like, you know, fucking what's. 1600 01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:00,160 Speaker 2: That show like Queer as Folk or something, you know 1601 01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:05,280 Speaker 2: what I mean. It's like the desirability politics were immediately 1602 01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:06,880 Speaker 2: set when Grinder launched. 1603 01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:11,519 Speaker 1: Yes, well, we had almost no representation, so that just 1604 01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:16,240 Speaker 1: allowed these niche areas where we were communicating to be 1605 01:26:16,479 --> 01:26:18,600 Speaker 1: the only way to talk about it, you know what 1606 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:21,240 Speaker 1: I mean. And like, because there was no representation of 1607 01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:26,360 Speaker 1: like diverse queerness at the time, it probably did filter 1608 01:26:26,479 --> 01:26:29,520 Speaker 1: down to well, if you're not being depicted as attractive 1609 01:26:29,760 --> 01:26:32,160 Speaker 1: You're not, you know. 1610 01:26:32,080 --> 01:26:34,599 Speaker 2: Like if you're not attractive, then like there isn't really 1611 01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:37,360 Speaker 2: a place for you. But I was, you know, you 1612 01:26:37,360 --> 01:26:40,240 Speaker 2: want to know something, I was using Craigslist. I was 1613 01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:42,760 Speaker 2: using Craigslist to hook up with people. Mm hmm, Like 1614 01:26:42,840 --> 01:26:44,080 Speaker 2: this was the time of Craigslist. 1615 01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:46,439 Speaker 1: I think you've told me that before. Other friends of 1616 01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:48,640 Speaker 1: mine have said the same of ours. I said the 1617 01:26:48,640 --> 01:26:51,200 Speaker 1: same thing. So was it just you'd go on Craigslist 1618 01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:55,759 Speaker 1: and like respond to a post or would you post? 1619 01:26:56,080 --> 01:26:57,160 Speaker 2: I would never post. 1620 01:26:57,960 --> 01:26:59,599 Speaker 1: I didn't. No, I did a few times, but like 1621 01:27:00,479 --> 01:27:05,120 Speaker 1: it was just really scary to like receive, like anyone 1622 01:27:05,120 --> 01:27:10,360 Speaker 1: could reach out to you and send you really jarring things, 1623 01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:13,439 Speaker 1: whether or not you wanted it. So I would What 1624 01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:15,960 Speaker 1: I would usually do is like respond to people. You 1625 01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:16,760 Speaker 1: would trade. 1626 01:27:16,520 --> 01:27:21,439 Speaker 2: Pictures over email over like you know, proxy accounts, proxy 1627 01:27:21,479 --> 01:27:25,200 Speaker 2: email addresses, and then you would like arrange in the 1628 01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:27,800 Speaker 2: meet up. There was just a lot of like it's 1629 01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:29,439 Speaker 2: just like Grinder now. It's just like the apps now, 1630 01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:32,760 Speaker 2: it's like there's a lot of like setup and like 1631 01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:35,519 Speaker 2: Craigslist was kind of like the only thing in town 1632 01:27:35,640 --> 01:27:38,719 Speaker 2: until Grinder came along, and I didn't use Adam for Adam, 1633 01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:43,200 Speaker 2: I didn't use the like the more legacy platforms, but Grinder, 1634 01:27:43,240 --> 01:27:45,519 Speaker 2: I think really the fact that it was on your 1635 01:27:45,560 --> 01:27:49,080 Speaker 2: phone really fucking blew the gates open. 1636 01:27:49,479 --> 01:27:55,160 Speaker 1: Mm hm. Totally unregulated too, which now it feels odd 1637 01:27:55,160 --> 01:27:58,599 Speaker 1: to say this, but the apps are very regulated now. 1638 01:27:59,479 --> 01:28:03,240 Speaker 1: But that's because there's a deep need for it, because 1639 01:28:03,479 --> 01:28:05,160 Speaker 1: it's not a safe environment. 1640 01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:12,040 Speaker 2: No, no, it's inherently somewhat dangerous if you're putting yourself 1641 01:28:12,040 --> 01:28:15,880 Speaker 2: out there in any sexual way. I don't know, there's 1642 01:28:15,920 --> 01:28:17,280 Speaker 2: just some danger, that's all. 1643 01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:21,320 Speaker 1: Like, here's what I'll say. I was not Ungrinder then. 1644 01:28:21,400 --> 01:28:24,920 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be on Grinder until like twenty sixteen, twenty 1645 01:28:24,920 --> 01:28:27,760 Speaker 1: seventeen really and was rarely on the apps. I was, 1646 01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:33,439 Speaker 1: as at the time, very afraid of sex two thousand nine, 1647 01:28:33,439 --> 01:28:37,880 Speaker 1: as also of the year unfortunately I was assaulted. It's 1648 01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:40,360 Speaker 1: taken a very long time. I don't think it was 1649 01:28:40,439 --> 01:28:45,559 Speaker 1: until twenty seventeen that I understood that that's what that was. 1650 01:28:46,439 --> 01:28:49,040 Speaker 1: It was during the Me Too era that I realized 1651 01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:51,839 Speaker 1: I recognized a lot of the conversations that were happening, 1652 01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:54,960 Speaker 1: and I realized that where I recognized it from was that. 1653 01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:55,800 Speaker 2: It had happened to me. 1654 01:28:56,320 --> 01:28:59,839 Speaker 1: Yes, So looking back, one of the things I always 1655 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:06,120 Speaker 1: feel disappointed about and like about my college experiences that 1656 01:29:06,160 --> 01:29:09,719 Speaker 1: I wasn't out there more. Like I always tell myself, 1657 01:29:09,760 --> 01:29:12,880 Speaker 1: it's like that scarcity thing where it's like, oh, when 1658 01:29:12,920 --> 01:29:14,920 Speaker 1: you were young, you should have been out there doing 1659 01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:17,240 Speaker 1: this and doing that. But like, I think that was 1660 01:29:17,280 --> 01:29:21,479 Speaker 1: another reason for my anxiety around gayness and around like 1661 01:29:21,920 --> 01:29:24,000 Speaker 1: thrusting myself into this world and why it was so 1662 01:29:24,120 --> 01:29:27,759 Speaker 1: hard is because I was confused about whether to trust 1663 01:29:27,840 --> 01:29:30,000 Speaker 1: gay people or not, you know what I mean. Like 1664 01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:34,960 Speaker 1: I I was bullied very badly when I first got 1665 01:29:35,000 --> 01:29:36,639 Speaker 1: to NYU by gay men. 1666 01:29:36,880 --> 01:29:40,120 Speaker 2: I remember these specific bullies as well. 1667 01:29:40,280 --> 01:29:45,400 Speaker 1: And I also had trusted one and been taken advantage of. 1668 01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:48,639 Speaker 2: And so oh my god, we both have a name 1669 01:29:48,680 --> 01:29:51,280 Speaker 2: that we were both yeah yeah, yeah, wow, that's so funny. 1670 01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:54,160 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, like and then I remember I came 1671 01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:57,000 Speaker 1: back to school and like had you know, gained like 1672 01:29:57,080 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 1: some confidence and some power. But I filtered all of 1673 01:30:01,560 --> 01:30:06,320 Speaker 1: that into like the comedy and the friendships, and none 1674 01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:09,880 Speaker 1: of that into my romantic and sexual life because I 1675 01:30:10,040 --> 01:30:17,480 Speaker 1: was so scared of sex. I was scared of interacting 1676 01:30:17,520 --> 01:30:20,080 Speaker 1: with other gay men and mass you really were one 1677 01:30:20,080 --> 01:30:21,760 Speaker 1: of my only gay friends. 1678 01:30:22,240 --> 01:30:24,760 Speaker 2: But can we just say, and maybe we haven't really 1679 01:30:24,800 --> 01:30:29,519 Speaker 2: acknowledged this. Us being in these comedy groups was a 1680 01:30:29,600 --> 01:30:33,760 Speaker 2: lifeline for both of them totally. I mean, we'll talk 1681 01:30:33,800 --> 01:30:35,639 Speaker 2: about this so whenever we talk about you do as anty. 1682 01:30:35,800 --> 01:30:38,320 Speaker 2: But like I remember going to NYU being like, if 1683 01:30:38,360 --> 01:30:41,200 Speaker 2: I don't get on this improv group, I will have 1684 01:30:41,360 --> 01:30:42,760 Speaker 2: no way of making friends. 1685 01:30:43,280 --> 01:30:46,160 Speaker 1: I think I felt really similarly, or I was concerned 1686 01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:48,800 Speaker 1: about I put all my chips in it. Yeah, I 1687 01:30:48,840 --> 01:30:51,200 Speaker 1: felt the same way when you actually made it in 1688 01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:55,040 Speaker 1: your first Yeah, I remember like, so I had sworn 1689 01:30:56,360 --> 01:30:58,639 Speaker 1: myself to like this thing. I was like, I'm gonna 1690 01:30:58,640 --> 01:31:01,840 Speaker 1: do what Amy Poeher did. And then in two thousand 1691 01:31:01,880 --> 01:31:05,200 Speaker 1: and nine, when I went to my Danger Box audition 1692 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:07,479 Speaker 1: for the improv group and I tease you because you 1693 01:31:07,520 --> 01:31:09,639 Speaker 1: were there and we had an interaction and I didn't 1694 01:31:09,640 --> 01:31:13,080 Speaker 1: make it, I was really scared because I was like, Okay, 1695 01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:15,760 Speaker 1: that's one down, there's only one other one. 1696 01:31:15,920 --> 01:31:17,360 Speaker 2: And I was not at the time. 1697 01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:19,960 Speaker 1: I was not at the time a self starter like 1698 01:31:20,080 --> 01:31:24,080 Speaker 1: Sudie didn't make it into Danger Box her first year, 1699 01:31:24,960 --> 01:31:26,960 Speaker 1: and she was enough of a self starter to start 1700 01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:30,759 Speaker 1: her own group called Captain Soldier, which would then become 1701 01:31:30,800 --> 01:31:33,920 Speaker 1: its own thing, and she made her own way at 1702 01:31:33,960 --> 01:31:37,760 Speaker 1: the time, like I think I was so insecure and 1703 01:31:37,840 --> 01:31:41,040 Speaker 1: such a different version of myself. I don't think I 1704 01:31:41,080 --> 01:31:43,040 Speaker 1: would have been able to start my own comedy group. 1705 01:31:43,120 --> 01:31:45,280 Speaker 1: So it was really important for me and I think 1706 01:31:45,320 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 1: for you too, to make it into this thing that 1707 01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:52,240 Speaker 1: was like established and we could join and I could 1708 01:31:52,240 --> 01:31:55,160 Speaker 1: like coulde switch my way in? I never pretended to 1709 01:31:55,160 --> 01:31:57,960 Speaker 1: be straight there, but I was always very good at 1710 01:31:58,000 --> 01:31:59,200 Speaker 1: playing with boys. 1711 01:31:59,640 --> 01:32:01,479 Speaker 2: Right, you were, well, so were you? 1712 01:32:01,600 --> 01:32:03,040 Speaker 1: We want to know why, because we took a lot 1713 01:32:03,040 --> 01:32:03,960 Speaker 1: of shit. 1714 01:32:04,120 --> 01:32:05,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you way. 1715 01:32:05,600 --> 01:32:08,360 Speaker 1: Worse than me.

And you 1845 01:39:14,080 --> 01:39:16,840 Speaker 1: need to govern your ass. Five secay, don't put the 1846 01:39:16,880 --> 01:39:19,120 Speaker 1: tape on. I know you're trying to protect spillage, but 1847 01:39:19,160 --> 01:39:21,599 Speaker 1: it doesn't need to be that. Put the little sticky 1848 01:39:21,600 --> 01:39:24,080 Speaker 1: circle on that's easy to pop off and that's what 1849 01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:26,320 Speaker 1: a minute, or just trust that I'm not gonna spill it, 1850 01:39:26,479 --> 01:39:29,200 Speaker 1: like stop. I hate that little tape. Do you know 1851 01:39:29,240 --> 01:39:31,240 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about? Am I crazy? No? I know 1852 01:39:31,280 --> 01:39:33,640 Speaker 1: exactly what we're talking about. And every time I'm like 1853 01:39:33,760 --> 01:39:34,599 Speaker 1: that green tape. 1854 01:39:34,640 --> 01:39:36,439 Speaker 2: It doesn't come off easy. I'm like, what are we 1855 01:39:36,520 --> 01:39:37,120 Speaker 2: doing here? 1856 01:39:37,400 --> 01:39:39,519 Speaker 1: I just don't get it. It feels like something that 1857 01:39:39,560 --> 01:39:43,360 Speaker 1: we don't need to produce end mass. It's like this, It. 1858 01:39:43,240 --> 01:39:47,599 Speaker 2: Can't be more sustainable than that little paper sticky circle 1859 01:39:47,640 --> 01:39:50,160 Speaker 2: that you kind of just like flick off and it's 1860 01:39:50,360 --> 01:39:50,960 Speaker 2: I don't think. 1861 01:39:50,840 --> 01:39:54,120 Speaker 1: We need either of them though. Why do we need 1862 01:39:54,160 --> 01:39:56,120 Speaker 1: the hole on top of the that tiny hole on 1863 01:39:56,160 --> 01:39:59,000 Speaker 1: top of the iced coffee covered? And I don't get it. 1864 01:39:58,760 --> 01:40:01,479 Speaker 2: Because I guess for this sometimes the delivery people, if 1865 01:40:01,479 --> 01:40:03,960 Speaker 2: it's a delivery, they don't want it to splash and 1866 01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:06,760 Speaker 2: splash in their bag. It's to help them. 1867 01:40:06,800 --> 01:40:09,280 Speaker 1: I would rather have the lid that's like you know 1868 01:40:09,320 --> 01:40:12,280 Speaker 1: those plastic lids that like just have the little divot 1869 01:40:12,479 --> 01:40:14,360 Speaker 1: or in debt in them and you can do it yourself. 1870 01:40:14,400 --> 01:40:17,240 Speaker 2: Like, I don't know, I just feel like there is 1871 01:40:17,280 --> 01:40:18,080 Speaker 2: a better way. 1872 01:40:18,280 --> 01:40:19,200 Speaker 1: There's a better way. 1873 01:40:19,520 --> 01:40:19,960 Speaker 2: Period. 1874 01:40:21,000 --> 01:40:25,080 Speaker 1: Well, this has been I think an excellent episode of 1875 01:40:25,120 --> 01:40:25,719 Speaker 1: Lost Coat. 1876 01:40:26,479 --> 01:40:28,320 Speaker 2: I think so I would have to agree. 1877 01:40:28,400 --> 01:40:33,080 Speaker 1: And to the doubters, yeah, you guys flopped. You've really flopped. 1878 01:40:33,520 --> 01:40:35,559 Speaker 1: Doubters forgot how good we are at this. 1879 01:40:38,280 --> 01:40:42,120 Speaker 2: And no one should doubt us on The Traders season three, 1880 01:40:42,360 --> 01:40:44,599 Speaker 2: four or five six, whatever they want us, we will 1881 01:40:44,600 --> 01:40:46,960 Speaker 2: be there. I think we're I mean they would they 1882 01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:49,000 Speaker 2: would bring all though we can't be on the same 1883 01:40:49,000 --> 01:40:50,000 Speaker 2: season because they would want to. 1884 01:40:49,960 --> 01:40:51,599 Speaker 1: Bring No, we have to be on the same season. 1885 01:40:51,640 --> 01:40:53,680 Speaker 1: I think that's the whole point. It's like, if they 1886 01:40:53,680 --> 01:40:55,160 Speaker 1: make one of us a Trader and one of us 1887 01:40:55,160 --> 01:40:59,360 Speaker 1: are faithful, that's iconic television. Yeah, but the Traders will 1888 01:40:59,360 --> 01:41:01,120 Speaker 1: want to kill one like you as a Trader will 1889 01:41:01,120 --> 01:41:04,960 Speaker 1: want to kill me, or the Table will want to 1890 01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:07,960 Speaker 1: banish you or I and split the group. It's Larsa 1891 01:41:08,000 --> 01:41:10,320 Speaker 1: and Marcus. I think we have to play together. That's 1892 01:41:10,320 --> 01:41:11,240 Speaker 1: all I'm gonna say about that. 1893 01:41:11,640 --> 01:41:14,080 Speaker 2: I would love that, but I think that compromises both 1894 01:41:14,120 --> 01:41:14,479 Speaker 2: of us. 1895 01:41:16,360 --> 01:41:19,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna continue this conversation off air. It's gonna continue 1896 01:41:19,439 --> 01:41:23,400 Speaker 1: all day. Bonyang.
