Speaker 1: I am all in.
Speaker 2: Let's kiss you. I am all in with Scott Patterson
Speaker 2: an iHeartRadio Podcast.
Speaker 1: Hey everybody, Scott Patterson, I am all in Podcast one
Speaker 1: eleven Production's iHeartRadio, iHeartMedia, iHeart Podcast, iHeart Popcorn, I Heard
Speaker 1: ice Cream. iHeart Christmas Trees, Episode thirteen, Season six, Friday Nights,
Speaker 1: all right for fighting. Logan is waiting at the coffee
Speaker 1: card for Rory's still trying to win her back. Logan,
Speaker 1: excuse me, but this is not slick. This is a
Speaker 1: Nora Efron movie. Loui Armstrong should be warbling as we talk.
Speaker 1: So come on, please put me out of my misery.
Speaker 1: You promised you'd let me take you to dinner. Nora
Speaker 1: Ephron was a filmmaker who is best known for writing
Speaker 1: and directing rom comms. She has written the screenplays for
Speaker 1: When Harry Met Sally's Silkwood, Heartburn, Sleepless in Seattle, You've
Speaker 1: Got Mail, and many more. Wow, that is quite a list.
Speaker 1: Louis Armstrong is a jazz legend, best known for his
Speaker 1: song what a Wonderful World We all know, we all
Speaker 1: love it. Logan is comparing himself to a Nora Ephron
Speaker 1: rom com because he's been trying so hard to win
Speaker 1: Rory back, and that a Louis Armstrong song should be
Speaker 1: playing in the background because of his romantic gestures. Did
Speaker 1: you know in that scene, that scene that we're referring to, Yes,
Speaker 1: that scene when Meg Ryan pretends to quote unquote get
Speaker 1: excited in quote uno. Yes, when Harry met Sally, the
Speaker 1: line that Billy Crystal says I'll have what she's having
Speaker 1: was actually suggested by Billy. Also, there is a plaque
Speaker 1: in Cat's Delian, New York City to the table where
Speaker 1: they filmed that scene. The plaque read, or how Harry
Speaker 1: met Sally's hope you have what she had?
Speaker 2: And also, and I'm making sure we don't have this
Speaker 2: in the notes, the woman that says I'll have what
Speaker 2: she's having, I believe is Billy Crystal's mother, Jackie check
Speaker 2: that while we continually all right, all right, So in
Speaker 2: the same scene, by the way, for everybody listening, this
Speaker 2: is new and improved pop culture.
Speaker 3: So come back to us and tell us if you
Speaker 3: do agree that this is new and improved.
Speaker 2: So, same scene, after Rory grees to go to dinner,
Speaker 2: Logan asked her not to back out and do not
Speaker 2: think of backing out because I will cry and eat
Speaker 2: a pint of Rocky Road while watching An Affair to
Speaker 2: Remember with Rita Wilson, which is a reference to Sleepless
Speaker 2: in Seattle and A Fair to Remember is a romantic
Speaker 2: drama film from nineteen fifty seven starring Carrie Grant and
Speaker 2: Debora Kerr. It is considered the most romantic film of
Speaker 2: all time and as a remake of the nineteen thirty
Speaker 2: nine film Love Affair. So Logan is naming the film
Speaker 2: and a Fair to Remember, but he's referring to the
Speaker 2: movie's Sleepless in Seattle. When Rita Wilson's character talks about
Speaker 2: an Affair to Remember and gets very emotional. She's emotionally explained,
Speaker 2: I think she ends up crying. Logan is saying he's
Speaker 2: going to be like Rita Wilson crying and watching An.
Speaker 3: Affair to Remember.
Speaker 2: Both films, Sleepless in Seattle and An Affair to Remember
Speaker 2: had the love interest meeting at the top of the
Speaker 2: empire stableilding. And as we said, Sleepless in Seattle is
Speaker 2: a Nora Efron film, And as we just said, Scott
Speaker 2: just said it was.
Speaker 3: Rob Reiner's mother.
Speaker 2: Rob rear the line, I'll have what's right? Oh, pardon me,
Speaker 2: pardon me. It was Rob Reiner's mother, not Billy Crystals.
Speaker 2: So I was close, a close. Only counts and horseses hey,
Speaker 2: you know they're friends, so right there, buds right.
Speaker 4: All right. So Laura is telling Rory she needs to
Speaker 4: tell her grandparents about not having to pay for Yale anymore.
Speaker 4: Laura says it's going to be the opening night of
Speaker 4: Taboo all over again. Taboo is a stage musical originally
Speaker 4: written by Mark Davies Markham. The show premiered in London's
Speaker 4: West End at the newly open Venue Theater in two
Speaker 4: thousand and two. Laureli is referring to Taboo because it's notorious.
Speaker 4: Rosie O'Donnell investment. Rosie was so enamored with the production
Speaker 4: that she decided to finance it. After sixteen previews, it
Speaker 4: opened on November thirteen, two thousand and three, at the
Speaker 4: Plymouth Theater, and after being hampered by mostly scathing reviews,
Speaker 4: the production closed after one hundred performances. O'Donnell reportedly lost
Speaker 4: her entire ten million dollar investment in the project, and
Speaker 4: Laureli is comparing her parents losing out to an investment
Speaker 4: into Rory's Yale future.
Speaker 2: When you were reading that, for some reason, all that
Speaker 2: came into my head was boy George, boy George, And
Speaker 2: I was like, why am I thinking of boy George
Speaker 2: when you're talking about Taboo? And I think it was
Speaker 2: based on his life I'm pretty sure. So I looked
Speaker 2: it up really quick. Whose life story is Taboo based on?
Speaker 2: And it is boy George.
Speaker 1: He was the lead.
Speaker 2: So yeah, but he used his name, Georgio Dowd, so
Speaker 2: he used his birth name.
Speaker 3: As opposed to boy George, which com a chameleon. Yeah,
Speaker 3: do you really want to hurt me? I could sing
Speaker 3: Culture Club song all day long?
Speaker 4: I know that one.
Speaker 1: She could. She could deduct that entire loss ten million. God,
Speaker 1: you got ten million laying around a chuck at our
Speaker 1: crappy plan.
Speaker 3: It's the holidays. I don't have ten dollars around.
Speaker 1: The same scene. Laura I telling Rory she needs to
Speaker 1: tell her grandparents about not having to pay for Yale anymore. Rory,
Speaker 1: what's the worst that can happen? We won't be speaking anymore. Gee,
Speaker 1: that would suck. So wow, they're just hating on each other,
Speaker 1: aren't they? That nobody likes each other anymore.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Rory's very caustic towards her grandparents in
Speaker 2: this way.
Speaker 1: Rash Laura, I Wow, Ice Ice Baby, Ice Ice Baby
Speaker 1: is a titled nineteen ninety song by rapper Vanilla Ice.
Speaker 1: Although we know the hit song by Vanilla Ice, we've stopped,
Speaker 1: lor I is referring to it.
Speaker 3: Collaborate and listen.
Speaker 2: Ice is back with a brand new intention or so invention.
Speaker 2: I used to be able to sing that whole thing.
Speaker 3: Can you do it?
Speaker 1: I just know I wouldn't even attempt it in front
Speaker 1: of me. I would not do that.
Speaker 3: Ice.
Speaker 4: You do that, baby, You go ahead and do it,
Speaker 4: and then collaborate and listen.
Speaker 3: Ice is back with a brand new invention.
Speaker 1: This is when music died, nineteen ninety, the day that
Speaker 1: music died.
Speaker 3: Come to the extreme.
Speaker 2: I wrock a mic like a vandal, light up a
Speaker 2: stage and watch a jump like a candle dance.
Speaker 3: Go rush to the speaker that booms. I'm killing your
Speaker 3: brain like.
Speaker 1: A do you have any time in all?
Speaker 4: Shockingly yes, with my cold.
Speaker 1: Although we know it's a hit song by Vitilized, Lorelei
Speaker 1: is referring to it like Rory is being Ice Cold
Speaker 1: to her grandparents. You know, only on this pod cast
Speaker 1: is does Vanilla Ice get more respect than Bob Dylan?
Speaker 3: Rolling in my five point oh with my ragtop down
Speaker 3: so my hair candlow. Early He's on the standby waiting
Speaker 3: to see say. I just drove back, kept on pursuing
Speaker 3: to the next stop.
Speaker 1: Amy, What what address are you at right now? Huh?
Speaker 1: Give me your dress. We're gonna send Jeeves over the tranquilizer.
Speaker 3: Anytime I can do, Ice Ice, baby, r.
Speaker 1: I'm right there with you. Did you know that Vanilla
Speaker 1: Ice wrote this song when he was sixteen years old
Speaker 1: and this song was the first hip hop single ever
Speaker 1: to top the Billboard.
Speaker 3: Away, that's actually crazy.
Speaker 1: With diversifying the hot one hundred chart with hip hop music?
Speaker 3: Did you stop?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: I just drove back, kept on pursuing to do the
Speaker 2: next stop. I must have left and I'm heading to
Speaker 2: the next block. The block was dead, yo. So I
Speaker 2: continued to a one a beachfront avenue Paris, telling Rory
Speaker 2: how she double booked photographers for the football game and
Speaker 2: they got mad.
Speaker 3: First of all, I so this was irritating because no
Speaker 3: one's leaving a.
Speaker 1: Hole like that.
Speaker 2: So Para says, and then, of course when the temperamental
Speaker 2: artis found out, I had double book the gig. They
Speaker 2: flew n Naomi Campbell level hissy fits and quit. Naomi
Speaker 2: Campbell is a legendary model, one of the Big five
Speaker 2: models of her generation, declared supermodels by the fashion industry.
Speaker 2: She was the first black woman to appears a model
Speaker 2: in the covers of Time in Vogue France. Harris is
Speaker 2: referring to when Campbell threw a phone at her assistant
Speaker 2: in two thousand and six and faced assault charges and
Speaker 2: pled guilty. She had to do two hundred hours of
Speaker 2: community service, the same amount of hours I think Rory.
Speaker 1: Had to do.
Speaker 2: Did you know Naomi Campbell has appeared on over five
Speaker 2: hundred magazine covers and is one of the most fought
Speaker 2: photographed people in the world.
Speaker 4: All right, so Laura lies on the phone calling her
Speaker 4: parents that tell them why they aren't paying for Yale anymore.
Speaker 4: Richard picks up, and then Emily picks up Laura, I
Speaker 4: says Rowan Martin. Rowan and Martin's laugh In was a
Speaker 4: sketch comedy TV program hosted by Dan Rowan and Dick Martin.
Speaker 1: And not to interrupt, but guess who bought Dick Martin's
Speaker 1: house that he built in two thousand and three? You
Speaker 1: you thank you?
Speaker 3: Oh no way, that's a cool fun fact.
Speaker 2: Sweet that was your house you had for like a
Speaker 2: long long time eighteen years.
Speaker 3: Oh no, wonder you were so sad to.
Speaker 1: Leave its cool house.
Speaker 3: That's prettyoch.
Speaker 2: I wanted to interject, please do That's exactly the kind
Speaker 2: of interjection we like.
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you for the encouragement.
Speaker 4: So the show was characterized by a rapid fire series
Speaker 4: of gags and sketches lauralized naming two rapid fire comics
Speaker 4: when answering the phone and both Emily and Richard pick
Speaker 4: up right after each other. And did you know that
Speaker 4: Lauren Michaels was a young writer for this sketch comedy
Speaker 4: show and adapted some ideas for SNL. So if it
Speaker 4: wasn't for Rowan and Martin, we wouldn't have an SNL.
Speaker 3: And isn't this gold wasn't this Goldie Han show too? Yes?
Speaker 1: I was going to say that's where she was, twenty
Speaker 1: year old Goldiehan in a bikini shaken around. You know,
Speaker 1: I don't know about that last statement about the Lauren
Speaker 1: Michaels you know, Lauren Michaels took the National Lampoon guys
Speaker 1: and built SNL, you know, when they were doing their
Speaker 1: radio program.
Speaker 4: Check it.
Speaker 3: I feel like it's probably right.
Speaker 1: Really well, no, no, I know, Rowan and Martin was
Speaker 1: definitely an inspiration. I'm not saying it wasn't for Lauren Michaels,
Speaker 1: but there's more to it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's probably quite valid.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, because Chevy Chase and all the Guilder Rater,
Speaker 1: all those people were National Lampoon. Yeah, people doing a
Speaker 1: radio show.
Speaker 4: I watched Christmas Vacations so many times during.
Speaker 1: The holidays, same scenes, Laura I joking about which Christopher, Emily,
Speaker 1: and Richard are referring to laurasipher Isshuewood that cabaret money
Speaker 1: was burning a hole in his pocket. Christopher Isherwood is
Speaker 1: known for the nineteen thirty nine novel Goodbye to Berlin,
Speaker 1: which was later turned into the musical Cabaret. The original
Speaker 1: Broadway production opened on November twenty, nineteen sixty six. I
Speaker 1: remember nineteen sixty six. It was a great year at
Speaker 1: the Broadhurst Theater in New York City. It became a
Speaker 1: box office hit, ran for eleven hundred and sixty six performances,
Speaker 1: and was then turned into a film, Cabaret. The film
Speaker 1: ended up making forty two million dollars at the box office,
Speaker 1: which starred Liza Minelli and directed by Bob Fossey. That
Speaker 1: was a lot of money for a film to rake
Speaker 1: in at that time. Lorelei is comparing her Christopher to
Speaker 1: Christopher Isherwood. Both are rich and burning holes in their pockets.
Speaker 1: Did you know? Author Christopher Isherwood, who created the character
Speaker 1: of Sally Bulls, felt Liza Minelli was far too talented
Speaker 1: for the role. Hell of a thing. Sorry, kid, you're
Speaker 1: too good bye.
Speaker 2: Loralai and Rory are at Yale talking about dressing crazy
Speaker 2: for their lunch date.
Speaker 3: Oh so typical.
Speaker 2: Kid grows up, goes to a fancy school, becomes a snob,
Speaker 2: and is suddenly ashamed of her mother. You totally Mildred
Speaker 2: Piers to me. Mildred Pearce is in nineteen forty five
Speaker 2: American melodrama directed by Michael Curtis and starring Joan Crawford.
Speaker 2: In the film, Mildred and her daughter Vida do not
Speaker 2: get along and she's so ashamed of her mother. The
Speaker 2: film was later turned into a series starring Kate Winslet
Speaker 2: and Guy Pearce. I kind of remember that Laurai is
Speaker 2: saying Rory is ashamed of her by not dressing crazy
Speaker 2: for their lunch date. Did you know the original film
Speaker 2: starring Joan Crawford, the famous slap scene on the staircase
Speaker 2: was an actual slap. Joan instructed her costar and blythe
Speaker 2: to actually slap her.
Speaker 3: Wow. Wow, this is new and improved pop culture.
Speaker 4: This is juicy. Same scene, Laura's telling Rory about the
Speaker 4: reaction from Richard Emily not having to pay for Yale anymore.
Speaker 4: Laura says, they took it great. Mom practically broke the phone,
Speaker 4: she hung.
Speaker 3: Up so hard.
Speaker 4: And Dad, well, Dad was solemn, quiet, sad. It was
Speaker 4: a huge success. Okay, here's how I see it. You
Speaker 4: and your grandparents are at a huge crossroads. A press service,
Speaker 4: if you will. They are the Bridges of Madison County
Speaker 4: and you are Meryl Streep. So The Bridges of Madison
Speaker 4: County is a nineteen ninety five romantic film based on
Speaker 4: the novel written by Robert James Walker. It was produced
Speaker 4: and directed by Clint Eastwood, who also starred in the
Speaker 4: film alongside Meryl Streep. The film is set in nineteen
Speaker 4: sixty five, where Meryl Streep plays it Italian warbride Francesca Johnson,
Speaker 4: who lives with her husband and two children on their
Speaker 4: Iowa farm. That year, she meets national geographic photojournalist Robert
Speaker 4: Kincaid played by Clint Eastwood, who comes to Madison County
Speaker 4: to photograph its historic covered bridges. With Francesca's family away
Speaker 4: for a short trip, the couple have an intense four
Speaker 4: day love affair, and Lorelai is using this reference as
Speaker 4: a divide among their family. Meryl Streep is divided on
Speaker 4: what to do love Clint Eastwood's careacter or go back
Speaker 4: to her husband.
Speaker 1: Emily arguing what she finds music about the whole Christopher
Speaker 1: paying for Yale situation, Laurel I jokingly responds, lourl. Reno
Speaker 1: nine one one, that's a good line. Reno nine one
Speaker 1: one is an American comedy television series created by Robert
Speaker 1: Ben Garrant, Thomas Lennon, and Carrie Kenny Silver. Thomas Lennon
Speaker 1: is a comedic genius. It is a mockumentary documentary style
Speaker 1: parody of law enforcement documentary show, specifically cops, with comic
Speaker 1: actors playing the police officer. Laurai is naming off something
Speaker 1: amusing by responding to Emily, did you know the whole
Speaker 1: series is basically improvised by the cast.
Speaker 3: People love that show.
Speaker 1: Oh it's brilliant. It's brilliant. I mean, just it's so funny.
Speaker 1: It is really funny.
Speaker 2: I'm happy this once for me. Loreli and Luke are
Speaker 2: awkward in the morning and bump into each other, which
Speaker 2: if you miss the recap this week we dig into this,
Speaker 2: but Laura Li says it hurts so good, as mister
Speaker 2: Mellencamp said, is it bleeding? Okay, There's many reasons why
Speaker 2: I love this line, but first I'll tell you. John
Speaker 2: Mellencamp is a singer songwriter whose hit Hurt So Good
Speaker 2: landed number two on the Billboard Hot one hundred. Lorli
Speaker 2: quotes this song after bumping into Luke in the bedroom
Speaker 2: in the morning. John's daughter and our good friend, Teddy
Speaker 2: Mellencamp was on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. In
Speaker 2: a recent Watch What Happens Live interview with Teddy, he
Speaker 2: said he has only seen a few episodes the show
Speaker 2: and calls her dramatic.
Speaker 1: John Mellencamp's daughter Yeah, you didn't know that. I did
Speaker 1: not know that. Oh.
Speaker 3: Yes, So we work every day with Teddy Mellencamp. She
Speaker 3: is our pal. We'd love her. Her podcast is amazing.
Speaker 1: But we hung out at the Vegas thing. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: heard she's fantastic. That's her dad.
Speaker 4: Yeah, wait, Amy, have you met have you met John?
Speaker 4: Because I've met him with her?
Speaker 3: Oh are you serious?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Who's her mother?
Speaker 2: Her mom was married to John isn't now but at
Speaker 2: the time, but not famous.
Speaker 3: But this is the funniest thing, so I.
Speaker 1: Always correct it was before.
Speaker 2: So I always tell Teddy like, hell's your dad because
Speaker 2: I think he's so cute, And she'll say Pepaw And
Speaker 2: then sometimes she'll send me like Christmas photos where they're
Speaker 2: all there and literally, this.
Speaker 3: Is what I'll say about Peapa.
Speaker 2: It's like Christmas morning and Pea Paw is ten out
Speaker 2: of ten dressed in the coolest outfits I've ever seen.
Speaker 2: I'm literally like, Pepa is wearing that in the kitchen
Speaker 2: right now, like what a study has come out on stage,
Speaker 2: the kids have come out on stage with John, Like
Speaker 2: it's pretty cool.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's legit.
Speaker 2: Yeah. She she sends the barf emoji every time I say,
Speaker 2: your dad's a babe.
Speaker 3: So many people say it's her.
Speaker 4: When we were in Vegas for something with her, her
Speaker 4: dad was performing at the Oh that's right, and so
Speaker 4: he stopped by to say hi, and I was like,
Speaker 4: I think you just forget.
Speaker 3: We work with Teddy so much I forget.
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, her dad's John Mellencamp, like ever, just.
Speaker 3: Forget well, And they have the total regular father daughter like.
Speaker 3: He's just a regular old dad to her. But to us,
Speaker 3: we're like, it's John Mellencamp.
Speaker 2: I just want to go Little Diddy, Little Doddy, Little Diddy.
Speaker 3: He's so awesome.
Speaker 1: So he was John Cougar and then he became.
Speaker 2: John Cougar Mellencamp, and then there was a time when
Speaker 2: he wasn't like John, don't call me Cougar. I think
Speaker 2: it was John Cougar. Then he was John Cougar Mellencamp.
Speaker 2: But he's really John Mellencamp.
Speaker 4: Teddy sometimes says the Kougs.
Speaker 3: Yes they do, ca the Cougs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we should have cold called Eddy.
Speaker 3: We should have just called her and been like, your
Speaker 3: dad's in our pop culture. Maybe we'll do that. He's
