<v Speaker 2>Everybody.

0:00:10.320 --> 0:00:13.040
<v Speaker 1>I remember there was an episode like way back in

0:00:13.080 --> 0:00:15.280
<v Speaker 1>the beginning of this podcast where I used to open

0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:17.959
<v Speaker 1>it up with the British accent might welcome back to

0:00:18.079 --> 0:00:20.599
<v Speaker 1>ja Ja's see one now, and I feel like I

0:00:20.640 --> 0:00:22.480
<v Speaker 1>feel like I might have to bring that one back soon. Honestly,

0:00:22.480 --> 0:00:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna lie. I really like the British accent vibe.

0:00:25.120 --> 0:00:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Any users, Welcome back to je Zea Now. How are

0:00:28.240 --> 0:00:28.640
<v Speaker 1>you doing it?

0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Is today a good day? I hope it's a good day.

0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:33.400
<v Speaker 1>We are over halfway through twenty twenty four now, which

0:00:33.440 --> 0:00:36.360
<v Speaker 1>is so crazy. Also, I was thinking about this the

0:00:36.440 --> 0:00:41.360
<v Speaker 1>other day. COVID was four years ago. Four it feels

0:00:41.360 --> 0:00:41.680
<v Speaker 1>like two.

0:00:42.000 --> 0:00:43.120
<v Speaker 2>Tell me that I'm wrong.

0:00:43.240 --> 0:00:46.479
<v Speaker 1>Tell me like I feel like right now is twenty

0:00:46.520 --> 0:00:49.320
<v Speaker 1>twenty two, Like I did Dance It with the Stars

0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:53.560
<v Speaker 1>three years ago. That doesn't feel right. That's crazy. Time

0:00:54.840 --> 0:00:56.160
<v Speaker 1>Time literally.

0:00:55.880 --> 0:00:56.320
<v Speaker 2>Is a thief.

0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:59.120
<v Speaker 1>I know it's a cheeky, cheesy saying, but time is

0:00:59.240 --> 0:01:03.440
<v Speaker 1>literally the biggest thief. And I man, I'm I feel

0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:05.800
<v Speaker 1>so grateful that I get this life like, I really

0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:07.560
<v Speaker 1>love my life. I love my people in my life.

0:01:07.600 --> 0:01:10.640
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't imagine life without my people, and I just

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:12.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm a happy girl.

0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:13.160
<v Speaker 2>What can I say.

0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:18.039
<v Speaker 1>Anyways, A big part of my life is this little show.

0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Called Dance Moms.

0:01:20.560 --> 0:01:24.160
<v Speaker 1>I grew up on Dance Moms watching the show, and

0:01:24.200 --> 0:01:26.760
<v Speaker 1>then when I was nine years old, I did Abby's

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Ultimate Dance Competition, which is, you know, kind of the

0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:32.319
<v Speaker 1>spinoff of Dance Mom's competition show, and Abby's the judge

0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:35.680
<v Speaker 1>and Rich and Her show were also judges, and I

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:37.640
<v Speaker 1>did that show and then from there I went on

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:40.640
<v Speaker 1>to Dance Moms for two years, and that was really

0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:43.240
<v Speaker 1>where the world got to know me for the first time.

0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:49.160
<v Speaker 1>And so I feel always super defensive of Dance Moms

0:01:49.200 --> 0:01:52.400
<v Speaker 1>because it is such an iconic show. It is such

0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:56.400
<v Speaker 1>an iconic piece of reality TV history of the dance

0:01:56.440 --> 0:01:58.639
<v Speaker 1>world history. Whether you like it or not, Dance Moms

0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:01.720
<v Speaker 1>did change the dance world. It shaped the dance world,

0:02:01.840 --> 0:02:04.240
<v Speaker 1>and it made some of the most famous dancers in

0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:07.720
<v Speaker 1>the world. Any dancer that touched Dance Moms back in

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:11.160
<v Speaker 1>the day immediately had a name for themselves. And it's

0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:16.040
<v Speaker 1>such a magical platform that I'm just so proud to

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:18.160
<v Speaker 1>say that I got to be a small part.

0:02:17.919 --> 0:02:21.120
<v Speaker 2>Of and is a massive part of my career. And

0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:22.320
<v Speaker 2>I've got nothing.

0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:24.960
<v Speaker 1>I've got nothing, nothing bad to say about the Dance Moms,

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:28.240
<v Speaker 1>the original Dance Moms, and now we've got a new

0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Dance Mom. So we've got Dance Moms of new era.

0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:33.880
<v Speaker 1>It's on Hulu. I have lots of thoughts. I have

0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:35.920
<v Speaker 1>lots of thoughts. First thing that I want to say today,

0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:39.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna get into the five my five thoughts on

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:41.480
<v Speaker 1>the New Dance Moms. But if I was one to

0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:44.760
<v Speaker 1>just give an overall review, Okay, I have not finished

0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:50.160
<v Speaker 1>the season, but I'm deep into the season and I'm

0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:53.240
<v Speaker 1>enjoying watching it. But I am enjoying it for quite

0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:55.800
<v Speaker 1>some wrong reasons, if that makes sense.

0:02:55.960 --> 0:02:56.760
<v Speaker 2>I think that.

0:02:57.120 --> 0:02:59.160
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna get to hear all of my thoughts and

0:02:59.200 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 1>why I think it's the wrong reasons. But Dance Moms

0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:07.840
<v Speaker 1>is so special that recreating it is almost impossible. But

0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:10.760
<v Speaker 1>I do think in some ways they're actually doing a

0:03:10.840 --> 0:03:13.120
<v Speaker 1>very good job, and I think in other ways it's

0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:16.519
<v Speaker 1>just a little bit disastrous. One of the things that

0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:18.360
<v Speaker 1>I want to say before I jump into. This is

0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:21.680
<v Speaker 1>the thing about Dance Moms back, I mean now still

0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:23.799
<v Speaker 1>with Dance Moms, but back when I was filming is

0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:27.679
<v Speaker 1>what I'm gonna speak to. We filmed sixty hours a week,

0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:31.720
<v Speaker 1>and that got edited down into forty two minutes, and

0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:36.400
<v Speaker 1>so you only saw the craziest moments. You never saw

0:03:36.520 --> 0:03:39.120
<v Speaker 1>the sweet moments, the wholesome moments, the healthy moments, because

0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:42.040
<v Speaker 1>not to be whatever, but no one wants to watch

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:43.080
<v Speaker 1>a healthy thing on TV.

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 2>It's just not the vibe, right. Everyone wants the drama.

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:49.280
<v Speaker 1>But there was a proper way of having the drama.

0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:51.840
<v Speaker 1>And I think that the original Moms did a very

0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:55.840
<v Speaker 1>good job of doing that and making the drama between

0:03:55.920 --> 0:03:59.720
<v Speaker 1>them and between Abby, and I think that the kids

0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:01.760
<v Speaker 1>alway stayed out of it, and the kids were always kids,

0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:03.440
<v Speaker 1>and the girls were always friends, and we always had

0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:07.400
<v Speaker 1>each other's backs, and that that really I feel like,

0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 1>shaped me as a human being as well. And Dance

0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:12.720
<v Speaker 1>Moms taught me so much at such a young age,

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:15.320
<v Speaker 1>so I'm so grateful for it. That's like my little,

0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:19.520
<v Speaker 1>my little preface rant, But now it's time to get

0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:20.800
<v Speaker 1>into my real rants.

0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 2>Here are my five thoughts on the new Dance Moms.

0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:27.200
<v Speaker 1>Now, first thing that I want to talk about is

0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 1>I really respect that they do draw attention and pay

0:04:32.000 --> 0:04:36.160
<v Speaker 1>their dues to the original Dance Moms. They Glow, who

0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:38.360
<v Speaker 1>is the dance teacher of the new Dance Moms, gives

0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:42.000
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a speech to Abby. I guess

0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:47.920
<v Speaker 1>now the problem is here. That's not true, and that's

0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:50.200
<v Speaker 1>something that makes me very upset. Is everyone right now

0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:52.000
<v Speaker 1>is saying, oh, we tried to reach out to Abby,

0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:53.719
<v Speaker 1>we tried to get Abby to be involved.

0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:54.599
<v Speaker 2>That's not true.

0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:58.839
<v Speaker 1>And it's not my position to speak on Abby's behalf,

0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:03.039
<v Speaker 1>but I do you know that Glow and Abby were friends,

0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:06.360
<v Speaker 1>and then Glow went completely behind Abby's back while doing

0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:10.520
<v Speaker 1>this project, and it was definitely a stab in the

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:12.440
<v Speaker 1>back to Abby, especially when there was a lot of

0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 1>different studios that were approached to do this show, and

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:19.240
<v Speaker 1>all of them, you know, reached out for advice and

0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:21.040
<v Speaker 1>to see if it was a good idea, and Abby

0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:24.039
<v Speaker 1>did give them advice and said, hey, you should try

0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:25.920
<v Speaker 1>to have these be your filming hours. That way you

0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:29.039
<v Speaker 1>can still run your studio business after and she she

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:30.920
<v Speaker 1>did give some good advice to We were talking about

0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:35.479
<v Speaker 1>it the other day and unfortunately glow fully just a

0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:37.719
<v Speaker 1>bit aborted her relationship with Abby.

0:05:37.839 --> 0:05:40.680
<v Speaker 2>And I believe they and I might.

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:42.160
<v Speaker 1>Be wrong on this, so don't quote me on it,

0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:44.360
<v Speaker 1>as every thing press article on America is going to

0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:47.599
<v Speaker 1>quote me on this. But they asked Abby to judge

0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:51.000
<v Speaker 1>the last competition episode and that was the only thing

0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:53.480
<v Speaker 1>that they asked her to be a part of. And

0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:57.440
<v Speaker 1>what's shady about that is they essentially, I guess, just

0:05:57.480 --> 0:05:59.479
<v Speaker 1>wanted her face to be a part of it, and

0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:02.560
<v Speaker 1>she I think Abby deserves a little bit more credit

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:05.400
<v Speaker 1>than she gets for Dance Moms and creating Dance Moms.

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Obviously she's not the creator of the show, but it

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:11.800
<v Speaker 1>would it would not be Dance Moms without her, you

0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:14.560
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, especially in the beginning. So I

0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:17.920
<v Speaker 1>gotta say I appreciate a little bit of attention that

0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:18.520
<v Speaker 1>they drew to it.

0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:19.359
<v Speaker 2>In the first episode.

0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:20.919
<v Speaker 1>You know, GLO was saying, you all are gonna be

0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:24.600
<v Speaker 1>compared to the ALDC and now you're Studio Blue. But

0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:27.000
<v Speaker 1>people are gonna hear Junior Leaite team and see a

0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:29.520
<v Speaker 1>pyramid and they're gonna think Abby Lee Dance Company.

0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:32.240
<v Speaker 2>And I appreciate that.

0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:35.240
<v Speaker 1>I think that that instead of avoiding it, like it's

0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:37.279
<v Speaker 1>an elephant in the room, you know what I mean.

0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:39.520
<v Speaker 1>And they're talking about the pyramid, and they're like, you

0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 1>get to do this. We are the second studio that

0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:44.359
<v Speaker 1>gets to compete every weekend, instead of being like I

0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.480
<v Speaker 1>have a junius idea, let's compete every weekend. Like nah, bitch,

0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:48.760
<v Speaker 1>you didn't come up with that idea, you know what

0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:51.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean. And so I like that they give their

0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:55.880
<v Speaker 1>little bit of paid dues, but hm, I just wish

0:06:55.960 --> 0:07:06.080
<v Speaker 1>it was fully truthful their paid dues. I want to

0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:09.600
<v Speaker 1>talk about the kids. The kids are insanely talented. That's

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:14.840
<v Speaker 1>my second thought. They're amazing little nuggets. They are tiny tats,

0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:17.080
<v Speaker 1>They are very young, and they have a lot of

0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:20.640
<v Speaker 1>talent in those little bodies, and I am excited for them.

0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:22.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm excited that they get this platform. I'm excited that

0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:25.960
<v Speaker 1>they get to grow their dance careers while being seen

0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:26.400
<v Speaker 1>by the world.

0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:26.640
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:07:26.680 --> 0:07:29.760
<v Speaker 1>I hope that if some of them don't like the spotlight,

0:07:29.880 --> 0:07:32.640
<v Speaker 1>they learn how to run as fast as they possibly

0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:35.360
<v Speaker 1>can away from it. But I think they all seem

0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:38.640
<v Speaker 1>pretty good, and I do enjoy watching them dance because

0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:42.200
<v Speaker 1>they are talented little kiddos that I think are going

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:45.760
<v Speaker 1>to be very successful in life. Now, my third thought

0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:51.240
<v Speaker 1>is also about the kids, and this is a little

0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:55.040
<v Speaker 1>hard to talk about, but these kids, some of them,

0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:00.360
<v Speaker 1>need to be nicer to their moms. They don't see

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:03.920
<v Speaker 1>how much their moms are doing for them, and it

0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:08.040
<v Speaker 1>really it isn't cute to see. And this is just

0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:11.760
<v Speaker 1>for kids all over the world to take a look at.

0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:13.880
<v Speaker 1>It's not cool to be mean to your mom. It's

0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:15.000
<v Speaker 1>not funny to be mean.

0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:18.040
<v Speaker 2>To your mom. You don't look cooler because you're mean

0:08:18.040 --> 0:08:18.600
<v Speaker 2>to your mom.

0:08:18.800 --> 0:08:22.920
<v Speaker 1>You look bad and you look not nice your mom,

0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:26.080
<v Speaker 1>or your dad, or your guardian, whoever might be the

0:08:26.080 --> 0:08:27.840
<v Speaker 1>one raising you. I guess this is what I should say,

0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:32.120
<v Speaker 1>whoever's raising you, that person has your best interest, and

0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:34.559
<v Speaker 1>especially if they are giving up.

0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Their life to be on a TV show with you.

0:08:36.320 --> 0:08:37.480
<v Speaker 2>And I think that.

0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:41.120
<v Speaker 1>A lot of times that's taken for granted at a

0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:43.520
<v Speaker 1>young age. And I think that some of these kids

0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:46.080
<v Speaker 1>need to sit back and be like, wait, wow, my

0:08:46.160 --> 0:08:49.400
<v Speaker 1>mom's actually being really helpful, being really good. And yes,

0:08:49.480 --> 0:08:52.440
<v Speaker 1>everyone's mom annoys them at times, and trusts me, kids,

0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:56.520
<v Speaker 1>you annoy your mom's way more often than they annoy you,

0:08:57.320 --> 0:08:58.040
<v Speaker 1>and that's okay.

0:08:58.200 --> 0:08:59.040
<v Speaker 2>That's how it's supposed to be.

0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:00.880
<v Speaker 1>It's a mother daughter of relationship, it's a father daughter

0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:04.640
<v Speaker 1>relationship with father's son. Human to human, it's natural. As

0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:06.280
<v Speaker 1>long as there's two people in the world, there's gonna

0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:08.080
<v Speaker 1>be a little bit of annoyance. And so I think

0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:13.360
<v Speaker 1>that these kids need to grow up, get some maturity,

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:15.440
<v Speaker 1>even though they're very young, they need to mature up,

0:09:15.480 --> 0:09:17.319
<v Speaker 1>and they need to be like, hey, you know what,

0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:19.280
<v Speaker 1>maybe I should be a little kinder to my mom,

0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:22.040
<v Speaker 1>because I think that that's very important. And you won't

0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:23.800
<v Speaker 1>go far in life if you're not a nice person.

0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:26.520
<v Speaker 1>And I think that's a very very important lesson in

0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:29.520
<v Speaker 1>whatever field you choose, whether that's the dance world, whether

0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:33.880
<v Speaker 1>that's being a neuroscientist, whether that's being a golfer, whatever,

0:09:34.320 --> 0:09:37.200
<v Speaker 1>whatever you might want to do in this life, you

0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:38.480
<v Speaker 1>gotta be kind of those around you.

0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Now. My fourth thing that I want.

0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:45.240
<v Speaker 1>To talk about the freaking creative department. The creative department

0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:52.040
<v Speaker 1>on this production team is freaking eating music is eating.

0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Costumes are eating props are eating themes. The themes are crazy.

0:09:58.120 --> 0:09:58.720
<v Speaker 2>This season.

0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:02.880
<v Speaker 1>I I'm like entertained, like it gets to the dance

0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:04.240
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, yeah, the dances go, but then you

0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:05.839
<v Speaker 1>see the prop and you see the costume and the

0:10:05.880 --> 0:10:08.160
<v Speaker 1>hair and the makeup, and it's like, dang, they're really

0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:10.560
<v Speaker 1>really doing their biggest on this show.

0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:11.360
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know.

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:14.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know who that necessarily is. I don't know

0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:16.320
<v Speaker 1>if it's the producers. I don't know if it's Glow

0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:18.640
<v Speaker 1>fighting for certain things. I don't know if Kayley's coming in,

0:10:18.679 --> 0:10:20.880
<v Speaker 1>who is Glow's daughter being like, hey, I have ideas,

0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:24.480
<v Speaker 1>but I think that the creative team, when it comes

0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:27.960
<v Speaker 1>to the actual numbers, is just doing such a great

0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:31.079
<v Speaker 1>job on those dance numbers and those creative numbers. I'm

0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:39.920
<v Speaker 1>very I'm personally, very very entertained. Okay, the last thing

0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:45.160
<v Speaker 1>that I'm here to talk about this this is a

0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:48.600
<v Speaker 1>soft spot. It irks me and I talked about it

0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:50.240
<v Speaker 1>a little bit in the beginning, but now I'll go into

0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:55.840
<v Speaker 1>some more details. Dance Moms has a very famous quote

0:10:55.840 --> 0:11:00.720
<v Speaker 1>said by Abby, and that quote is everyone's replaceable. There

0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:03.320
<v Speaker 1>is one human who is not replaceable, and that is

0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:05.800
<v Speaker 1>the creator of that quote, Abby Lee Miller.

0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:06.920
<v Speaker 2>She's not replaceable.

0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:11.120
<v Speaker 1>And it goes back to my beginning point of they're

0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:12.880
<v Speaker 1>doing a good job of giving their flowers, but not

0:11:13.040 --> 0:11:19.960
<v Speaker 1>exactly nothing about the Dance Moms girls, the Dance Mom's cast,

0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:23.960
<v Speaker 1>the originals, I mean, go back to the original original Maddie, Kenzie,

0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:27.360
<v Speaker 1>Nia brook Page, and Chloe. Go back to them and

0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:32.040
<v Speaker 1>their moms Kelly, Christy, Melissa, Holly. I'm gonna Chuck, Jill

0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:36.280
<v Speaker 1>and Kendall in there as well. They're not replaceable, they

0:11:36.320 --> 0:11:39.240
<v Speaker 1>never have been and they never ever will be. And

0:11:39.280 --> 0:11:41.640
<v Speaker 1>then you know, add in those who came later, Colonie

0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:45.520
<v Speaker 1>and Kira, my mom and myself, Brinn and Ashley. The

0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:49.280
<v Speaker 1>mini is, Yeah, that's something that's never gonna be able

0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:52.160
<v Speaker 1>to be redone. Now you can do a new thing

0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:56.720
<v Speaker 1>for sure, but be redone, you're always gonna be compared

0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:59.359
<v Speaker 1>to something that was at the peak of iconicness.

0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:00.640
<v Speaker 2>It's never.

0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:03.960
<v Speaker 1>It's never gonna match up, you know what I mean.

0:12:04.000 --> 0:12:08.959
<v Speaker 1>And so I think that's something that while watching the show,

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, it's it's I'm not gonna lie like I'm

0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:12.280
<v Speaker 1>watching I'm tuned in.

0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:14.080
<v Speaker 2>I turn it on at night. I want to know

0:12:14.120 --> 0:12:14.960
<v Speaker 2>what's happening next.

0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:17.280
<v Speaker 1>I want to know if foot's actually broken like I'm

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:23.360
<v Speaker 1>really in but I'm like, hmm, You're not Abby, you

0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:27.520
<v Speaker 1>are not Melissa, you are not Maddie, you are not Jojo.

0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:30.760
<v Speaker 1>And I think that that's that's kind of a hard

0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:33.439
<v Speaker 1>thing to watch from somebody who was really in the

0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:38.679
<v Speaker 1>Dance Salms world. Is they tried to picture perfect recreate everybody,

0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:41.640
<v Speaker 1>and you're never gonna do that. It's not gonna happen.

0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:45.760
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I think that those are my like top

0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:48.360
<v Speaker 1>five things that I wanted to talk about with this

0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:50.839
<v Speaker 1>new show. I've got a couple more episodes left in

0:12:50.880 --> 0:12:53.280
<v Speaker 1>the season. I'm excited for the finale. I've seen little

0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:55.920
<v Speaker 1>like trailers and clips from the finale and it seems

0:12:55.960 --> 0:13:00.840
<v Speaker 1>really good. I will say it was episode three when

0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:04.520
<v Speaker 1>the Medium came in and the conversation. If you if

0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:06.920
<v Speaker 1>you haven't watched it, I would recommend to just get

0:13:06.920 --> 0:13:09.640
<v Speaker 1>to this part. And also the Sabrina Carpenter fight is

0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:12.160
<v Speaker 1>the funniest shit I've ever seen before. It's one of

0:13:12.160 --> 0:13:14.760
<v Speaker 1>the girls just not being very kind to her mom,

0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:17.720
<v Speaker 1>and her mom was like with Sabrina Carpenter, act like

0:13:17.760 --> 0:13:19.880
<v Speaker 1>this to her mom, and the girl just goes off,

0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:23.920
<v Speaker 1>and like the medium comes in and this is all

0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:25.720
<v Speaker 1>on TV, so you can go watch it for yourself.

0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:27.960
<v Speaker 2>But she comes in and she sits.

0:13:27.720 --> 0:13:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Down, and if you haven't seen it yet and you

0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:32.679
<v Speaker 1>don't like spoilers, pause, go watch come back. But this

0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:34.480
<v Speaker 1>is one of my favorite stories from the show this

0:13:34.520 --> 0:13:37.000
<v Speaker 1>season so far, is the medium sits down and she's like,

0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:41.240
<v Speaker 1>right away, I'm getting a mail and a car accident,

0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:46.080
<v Speaker 1>and anybody like, does anybody relate to that? And no

0:13:46.120 --> 0:13:48.559
<v Speaker 1>one says anything, and so then the medium was a

0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:51.600
<v Speaker 1>little thrown off, and she's like, okay, whatever, glow, there's

0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:55.240
<v Speaker 1>some oras around you, like both your parents are gone, right,

0:13:55.360 --> 0:13:58.840
<v Speaker 1>and they were talking and whatever. All of a sudden,

0:13:58.960 --> 0:14:03.800
<v Speaker 1>ten minutes goes by and they were talking somehow, and Mina,

0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:05.320
<v Speaker 1>one of the little girls, was like, yeah, I have

0:14:05.360 --> 0:14:07.760
<v Speaker 1>a brother. He died in a car accident two years ago.

0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:10.000
<v Speaker 2>And everyone was like what.

0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:14.120
<v Speaker 1>And she started to cry because she's this little, tiny peanut,

0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:16.600
<v Speaker 1>and of course anybody talking about that would shed it tear.

0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:19.200
<v Speaker 1>And it was just such a shock because no one

0:14:19.240 --> 0:14:22.240
<v Speaker 1>said anything while they were in the medium circle. But

0:14:22.280 --> 0:14:26.920
<v Speaker 1>the medium picked up right away, and I mean, it

0:14:26.960 --> 0:14:30.080
<v Speaker 1>blew everybody's mind. And it turns out that the mom

0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:32.160
<v Speaker 1>just didn't want to talk about it because she couldn't.

0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:35.000
<v Speaker 2>You can't, she couldn't. And the brother was only thirteen when.

0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:38.120
<v Speaker 1>He passed, and it just like that was like a

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:43.160
<v Speaker 1>jaw dropper on set and on the show, and I

0:14:43.200 --> 0:14:46.080
<v Speaker 1>can only imagine the producers and the cameraman being like,

0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:48.160
<v Speaker 1>no way, like.

0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:51.200
<v Speaker 2>There's no like, that's you can't make that up. That's

0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:53.320
<v Speaker 2>I will say. That is one of my favorite.

0:14:53.000 --> 0:14:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Things about Dance Moms back in the day when I

0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:56.760
<v Speaker 1>was on the show, even now on the day, like

0:14:57.480 --> 0:14:59.800
<v Speaker 1>you can't make it up. You cannot make some of

0:14:59.800 --> 0:15:00.520
<v Speaker 1>this stuff up.

0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:01.480
<v Speaker 2>And I will.

0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:05.720
<v Speaker 1>I will give them their flowers. I will say, I'm entertained.

0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:10.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm interested to know, number wise, how the show actually did.

0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:13.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go google that asap. I hope for their

0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:16.120
<v Speaker 1>saga did well. I think it'd be fun if they

0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.440
<v Speaker 1>did a new studio every single season. I think it

0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:21.080
<v Speaker 1>was fun to get to know these girls. But I

0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:23.080
<v Speaker 1>don't know if I'd be as interested in the drama

0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:23.720
<v Speaker 1>next season.

0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:25.359
<v Speaker 2>But I would be interested.

0:15:25.040 --> 0:15:27.960
<v Speaker 1>In another studio, you know, if it was kind of like, hey,

0:15:28.360 --> 0:15:31.080
<v Speaker 1>this is our formula and we almost want to see,

0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:35.240
<v Speaker 1>like how this studio attacks, the challenge of Dance Moms,

0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:38.960
<v Speaker 1>the challenges, the pyramid rivalries. The challenge is a group

0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:41.040
<v Speaker 1>dance or solos every week, you know what I mean.

0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:44.400
<v Speaker 1>I think that that's an interesting concept to change it.

0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:46.880
<v Speaker 1>So it's more of like like, here is the task.

0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:49.800
<v Speaker 1>You're on this show, you get this season, what are

0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:50.640
<v Speaker 1>you gonna do with it?

0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:52.680
<v Speaker 2>And see what people do with it?

0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:55.640
<v Speaker 1>Anyways, those are just my thoughts on Dance Moms and

0:15:55.720 --> 0:15:56.680
<v Speaker 1>Dance Moms a new era.

0:15:57.240 --> 0:15:59.520
<v Speaker 2>All love a little bit of shade. Of course, I'm

0:15:59.520 --> 0:16:03.640
<v Speaker 2>defensive of the original dance Bombs, and so seeing the

0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:04.240
<v Speaker 2>way that.

0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:09.120
<v Speaker 1>These girls are treated by producers and creators and everything,

0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:12.520
<v Speaker 1>and compared to how we were, and knowing now that

0:16:12.520 --> 0:16:16.960
<v Speaker 1>the reunion was only done to promote this show, there

0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:18.680
<v Speaker 1>is a bit of a little bit of shade, but

0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:21.880
<v Speaker 1>it's more of like like, oh, that was shady on

0:16:21.920 --> 0:16:24.040
<v Speaker 1>their behalf, and so now all of us are just

0:16:24.080 --> 0:16:26.840
<v Speaker 1>kind of like, ooh, I saw Paige Highland did a TikTok,

0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:28.400
<v Speaker 1>but I was like, I was here for the new

0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Dance Moms until I saw them with their Tiffany gift boxes.

0:16:31.600 --> 0:16:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Where was our Tiffany gift box? And I was like

0:16:33.880 --> 0:16:35.320
<v Speaker 1>period page, you go get them.

0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:36.360
<v Speaker 2>I agree.

0:16:37.320 --> 0:16:40.920
