Speaker 4: go all right.
Speaker 2: Christopher is eager to start decorating around the house as
Speaker 2: he and Laurlai just got married in Paris. Christopher says,
Speaker 2: you know what else might work. One of those electronic fish.
Speaker 2: What do they call it, the big mouth billy bass fish.
Speaker 2: You know what they are? Right when somebody walks by,
Speaker 2: they flap their mouths and sing songs like don't Worry,
Speaker 2: Be Happy and take Me to the River. Laura says,
Speaker 2: you're kidding. Christopher says, I'm totally kidding, except for the
Speaker 2: flat screen. We need a flat screen. Laura I says no,
Speaker 2: I'd rather have the big mouth billy bass fish. Christopher says,
Speaker 2: what's wrong with the flat screen? Laura Lai says, it's
Speaker 2: so Meet George Jetson his boy Elroy Leroy Billy big
Speaker 2: mouth billy bass is an animatronic.
Speaker 5: That's five times fast.
Speaker 4: Yeah, big mouth, billyish, big mouth, billy bass fish, big
Speaker 4: mouth billy fish, big mouth. It's hard, big mouth billy
Speaker 4: bass fish, big mouth billy fish, big mouth, MILLI screwed
Speaker 4: it up, Milli mass fish.
Speaker 2: So what Scotch has said is an animatronic singing prop
Speaker 2: representing a large mouth bath that was popular in the
Speaker 2: early two thousands. And I also have to point out
Speaker 2: this is the second time we've come across this, because
Speaker 2: there was an episode where Luke talks about having one
Speaker 2: and he was afraid that TJ was going to steal
Speaker 2: it and the batteries. Don't Worry, Be Happy is a
Speaker 2: song by Bobby McFerrin. Take Me to the River is
Speaker 2: a song by Al Green. The Jetsons is an animated
Speaker 2: sitcom created in the nineteen sixties. Meet George Jetson His
Speaker 2: Boy Elroy comes from the theme song of the show. And
Speaker 2: did you know that there is an alternative rock band
Speaker 2: from Seattle that named themselves his Boy Elroy? After the Jetsons.
Speaker 5: Who can I do this next one?
Speaker 4: You certainly may, okay?
Speaker 5: So this next one, Rory arrives at Logan's launch party
Speaker 5: and walks by some girls gossiping, and one of the
Speaker 5: guests says, and she showed me her ring this year
Speaker 5: huge canary diamond looked like something Paris Hilton would wear.
Speaker 5: Paris Hilton is the great granddaughter of Conrad Hilton, the
Speaker 5: founder of Hilton Hotels. She's also a reality star. A
Speaker 5: lot of you may have seen The Simple Life back
Speaker 5: in the day. Some may argue she was the first
Speaker 5: reality TV star, and she owns her own brand, Empire
Speaker 5: with tons of perfumes and all a bunch of stuff.
Speaker 5: In two thousand and five, Paris Hilton got engaged to
Speaker 5: Paris Lattice with a massive twenty four carrot canary diamond
Speaker 5: ring that was valued at four point seven million dollars.
Speaker 5: I think everyone remembers that ring. Did you know Paris
Speaker 5: Hilton just announced the birth of her second baby via surrogate,
Speaker 5: named London. So now she has a baby named London
Speaker 5: and Phoenix. And the reason why I know so much
Speaker 5: about Paris Hilton is our team works on her podcast too,
Speaker 5: So dada to I am Paris.
Speaker 4: After sitting through a coworker of Logan's man splaying his
Speaker 4: trip to Tortol, Rory hopes they never go there. Rory,
Speaker 4: can we please never go to Tortola?
Speaker 1: Where is Tortola?
Speaker 4: By the way, is that a real island? It's a
Speaker 4: real Tola. Sounds like a made up movie.
Speaker 5: Island, like a British version islands.
Speaker 4: Oh, Danielle, you're right, am I right?
Speaker 3: British Virgin Islands.
Speaker 4: Wow, my goodness, Logan, I don't even want to meet
Speaker 4: John Chatruro or Tortolini. John Taturo is an actor and filmmaker,
Speaker 4: and is known for frequently working with the Cohen Brothers,
Speaker 4: Adam Sandler, and Spike Lee, not necessarily in that order
Speaker 4: or not altogether. Did you know Spike Lee noticed and
Speaker 4: liked John Taturo's performance in the film Five Corners John
Speaker 4: played a psycho stalking Jody Foster's character. Actually, everybody knew
Speaker 4: look in the late eighties when I was doing theater
Speaker 4: in New York, every day nobody knew about John Jaturo.
Speaker 4: He was I think he was coming out of Yale
Speaker 4: rep and he was doing some off Broadway productions that
Speaker 4: everybody would go see. I think there was one he
Speaker 4: was in with John Panco and Lauris and Jacomo called
Speaker 4: Italian American Reconciliation. It was just thrilling to watch those
Speaker 4: three and Taturo especially just a very very very special,
Speaker 4: very gifted actor.
Speaker 3: Logan continues to argue with Rory about the article she wrote.
Speaker 3: Logan says, where do you get off acting all morally superior?
Speaker 3: Rory says, that is not what I intended to say
Speaker 3: at all. Logan says, you clearly think you are why
Speaker 3: because you read Iron Weed, because you saw Norma Ray.
Speaker 3: Iron Weed is a nineteen eighty three novel by William
Speaker 3: Kennedy which takes place during the Great Depression. Norma Ray
Speaker 3: is a nineteen seventy nine drama that is based on
Speaker 3: Krystalie Sutton as she tries to unionize her workplace and.
Speaker 4: Did you Know.
Speaker 3: Sally Field portrayed Norma Ray, which earned her an Oscar
Speaker 3: for Best Actress. Additionally, the film received a Standing Ovation
Speaker 3: at the Cannes Film Festival.
Speaker 4: This is when she said when she accepted The Warrior,
Speaker 4: you love me? You really love me, don't you write?
Speaker 4: When everybody's standing applotting for when she won the Oscar? Right?
Speaker 4: Was that it?
Speaker 2: I thought that was something later?
Speaker 4: Was that later?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: But I mean it was that that was her first
Speaker 4: Oscar win, right, I mean it must have been the
Speaker 4: biggest moment of her career.
Speaker 2: No, yeah, I think that was a different acceptance speech though,
Speaker 2: like for a different Oscar.
Speaker 5: Christopher has a basket of clothes he is carrying and
Speaker 5: Lurla stops to go through it. She sees a shirt
Speaker 5: that Chris has and accuses him of stealing it, and
Speaker 5: Laura Lai says, this is my Police Synchronicity T shirt.
Speaker 5: I've been missing this for twenty two years. Synchronicity is
Speaker 5: the fifth album by the British rock band The Police.
Speaker 5: The album includes hit singles every Breath You Take, King
Speaker 5: of Pain, Wrapped Around Your Finger and did you Know.
Speaker 5: Despite their relatively short time together as a band, they
Speaker 5: achieved remarkable success. They have sold over seventy five million records,
Speaker 5: making them one of the best selling bands of all time.
Speaker 2: Lucy and Olivia read Rory's article and have some commentary.
Speaker 2: Rory says it's mean. Lucy says sort of. Lynn Hirschberg meets,
Speaker 2: I don't know, someone really mean, and Rory said, actually,
Speaker 2: I think that was Olivia that said that, not Lucy.
Speaker 2: But Rory says, what, no, No, I'm frand Liebowitz. It's
Speaker 2: supposed to be fun, frothy, lighthearted satire, social anthropology. I'm
Speaker 2: Tama Janowitz and Olivia says, a mean Tamma Janowitz. Lynn
Speaker 2: Hirschberg is a journalist who has written for Rolling Stone,
Speaker 2: Vanity Fair, and The New York Times, and currently w magazine.
Speaker 2: Frand Liebowitz is an author and public speaker who is
Speaker 2: known for her cynical social commentary on American life. And
Speaker 2: Tama Janowitz is a novelist and short story writer. Did
Speaker 2: you know? Lynn Hirstberg wrote a piece for Vanity Fair
Speaker 2: about Courtney Love where the article contained factual errors, one
Speaker 2: of them misrepresenting Courtney's heroin use.
Speaker 4: Hmm, well, isn't that interesting that? Well?
Speaker 3: Luke is at the hospital with April and is switching
Speaker 3: through TV channels. He then stops when he sees the
Speaker 3: black and white film The Philadelphia Story starring Carry Grant
Speaker 3: and Catherine Hepburn. So In the scene, Carrie Grant says,
Speaker 3: two years ago, I did you out of a wedding
Speaker 3: in this house by eloping to Maryland. This is significant
Speaker 3: because at the end of season six, Lorelei says to
Speaker 3: Luke let's Elope in Maryland, and Luke at the time
Speaker 3: didn't know what she meant. When he returned to win
Speaker 3: her back and said, I heard you mentioned Maryland or something. Now,
Speaker 3: after seeing this scene, it reminded him of Lorelei and
Speaker 3: he knows where she got it from. It makes him
Speaker 3: sad because he knows Laurai is now married to Chris
Speaker 3: and did you know. According to Reddit fans, they say
Speaker 3: the premise of The Philadelphia Story is parallel to the
Speaker 3: story of Luke and Loralai. In the film, Tracy, who's
Speaker 3: from an aristocratic family, is getting married to George, another
Speaker 3: wealthy type. Another wealthy type who she doesn't really love.
Speaker 3: Her ex husband, Dexter, who's not part of the old
Speaker 3: money click turns up and at the end the scene
Speaker 3: we see in Gilmore Girls, Tracy decides to marry Dexter
Speaker 3: again instead of George. The parallels are Tracy is Loralai,
Speaker 3: George is Christopher, and Dexter is Luke. That was in depth.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know right, I think I got the better
Speaker 4: character name than Dexter. I agree. That's going to wrap
Speaker 4: it up for this brief version of pop culture. It
Speaker 4: was short, but it was sweet, wasn't it, folks. Next
Speaker 4: episode se An episode nine Knit, People Knit. Thank you ladies,
Speaker 4: Susan and French Daniel, Romo, Tara sud And we will
Speaker 4: see you next time. And remember, best fans on the planet.
Speaker 4: We love you, guys, keep the cards, letters coming, and
Speaker 4: always never forget. Does that make any sense at all?
