24
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,880

Speaker 2: episode when we first saw the our mirror Ball Winter Dance,

26
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,600

Speaker 2: really good. And now I'm just like, I'm just kind

28
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:03,920

00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: Now let's digress back to the beginning.

35
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: So I watched Okay, I don't know if it was

36
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 2: like this nationally, but I found this very interesting that

37
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 2: I watched. I watched the East Coast feed of the

38
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 2: show coming from WABC in New York, New York City,

39
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 2: and right before I started watching it at four fifty

40
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 2: pm Pacific, So I caught the tail end of Wheel

41
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 2: Fortunes during my close friend Ryan Seacress. And as Wheel

42
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 2: Fortune ended and they transitioned into Dancing with the Stars,

43
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 2: there was the commercial that played just before. Yes, was

44
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 2: a tourism commercial for the country of Australia starring Robert Irwin.

45
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: What are you talking about?

46
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 2: I watched a minute long commercial of Robert Irwin dancing

47
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 2: with koalas and there were other He wasn't just him

48
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 2: the entire time, but he was the star of this commercial.

49
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: He wasn't just him. Were there other finalists in this commercial?

50
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 2: No, there were other nameless Australian people. Okay, he was

51
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 2: the lone celebrity in this commercial.

52
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 1: And that is the commercial everyone viewed going right into

53
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: the finale that they.

54
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 2: Can't I don't know that for certain. I don't know

55
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 2: that for certain, but at least in the New York market,

56
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: which is the number one market in the country. Right

57
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 2: before the show started, which everyone who's watching this is

58
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 2: a fan, and so they're tuning in for the very

59
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 2: beginning and probably tuning in early like I did. The

60
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 2: last thing they see before the show starts is Robert

61
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 2: Irwin's shit eating grain dancing with the koala And.

62
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: I thought, said, guys.

63
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 2: I thought that was insane, Like, what on earth? How

64
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: is that? Okay? No?

65
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: Okay? Oh god? Am I getting so much trouble here?

66
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: Is there any world? Have you thought about this theory?

67
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: What year did Bendy Irwin win Dancing with the Stars.

68
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 2: Bendy Irwin won Dancing with the Stars in uh in

69
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 2: uh Let's see he was very young. He was very young.

70
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 2: She won. It was ten years ago, it was twenty fifteen.

71
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: Okay, you want to go on a wild conspiracy theory.

72
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 2: Here, take me what if.

73
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 1: When she won? They're like in twoenty twenty five, the

74
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: ten year marker of when she won, and you are

75
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: gonna go on Dancing with the Stars. And that's when

76
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 1: he started preparing his Journey of Dance.

77
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 2: Well, he started training ten years ago in secret. Yes,

78
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 2: I mean they I saw someone on TikTok last night

79
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 2: say the Irwin Empire is upon us, and like, I'm

80
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 2: really okay, I'm really curious because we've talked about this.

81
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 2: He's in the Zootopia movie, which is out this weekend. Yes,

82
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 2: he's in the Zuotopia role, but he's in it. He

83
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 2: won Dancing with the Stars. He was I think he was.

84
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 2: Who was the first contestant to be announced, right.

85
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: The first one, a long time before the reveal of

86
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 1: the others on Good Morning America.

87
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,159
Speaker 2: Then over the next twelve months, we are going to

88
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 2: be seeing a lot of Robert Irwin in Disney Company

89
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 2: associated things. I think we're going to see him hosting

90
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 2: the damn you know, Christmas Parade, next year, I think

91
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,479
Speaker 2: he's gonna He's definitely gonna do a lot dancing with

92
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 2: the Stars stuff he's going on. He's going to be

93
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 2: on the tour. He Witney will be on the tour.

94
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: I'm really curious what else the Disney Company they're they're

95
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 2: clearly investing in the Irwins, and I'm really interested to

96
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 2: see what else happens in the next twelve months, because

97
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 2: I think that would be very apparent. And I don't

98
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 2: know if this started in twenty fifteen or if it was.

99
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 2: It's a great theory.

100
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm you're saying it could have started way

101
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: before twenty fifteen.

102
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 2: I think maybe, you know, I don't know if Disney

103
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 2: had any connection to their father, but when he passed,

104
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 2: I know, the whole family obviously, everyone became very interested

105
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 2: in the Irwins, and they're just such a They're a

106
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 2: delightful family, like every you know. I sobbed every time

107
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 2: the mom was on screen. It's just it is, there's

108
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 2: a lot of details here that are really hard to ignore.

109
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: With a lot of signs, A.

110
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 2: Lot of signs. Yeah, I don't know. The other thing

111
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 2: apart from the conspiracy, Yes, I keep thinking about the

112
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 2: way the finales judges. Really I was trying to think

113
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 2: about this. I'm like, are we looking at this as

114
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 2: a season as a whole? Are we supposed to look

115
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 2: at this like who performed the best throughout the entire season?

116
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 2: Or is it like we're looking at tonight. Everyone who's

117
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 2: here obviously made it through the rest of the season.

118
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 2: Who does the best tonight?

119
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: Great question? I mean that they were scoring on what

120
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: they saw. Yes, the audience is obviously scoring on who

121
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: they've gone on this journey with. I don't think they're

122
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: scoring that night.

123
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 2: Because I think, and I'm going to continue to say

124
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 2: this about this recapit.

125
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: You should I drink every time you say it.

126
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 2: Ye, Alex Earle to me won the finale. I think

127
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 2: Alex Earl was the best dancer, and the judges scores

128
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 2: reflect that.

129
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 1: Out of the two of them. Are you saying, yeah,

130
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: out of out of all the finalists the finalists?

131
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 2: Okay, I think Alex should have won.

132
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: Last night, I went on some different emotions. Wait can

133
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: we go? Oh God, I don't know where to start

134
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: now because different points last night I was rooting on

135
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: different people. Yes, and that's not normal for me. I've

136
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: been pretty consistent about who's going to like, Yeah, Whitney

137
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: loved it.

138
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 2: I still say was robbed, like I wanted to see

139
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 2: her in the finals so badly, and it just I

140
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 2: wanted to see that freestyle so bad.

141
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: So bad. Okay, wait, how should we break this up?

142
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: We have three hours to break down.

143
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 2: Three three dances each, so we can start with I

144
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 2: mean here, should we just go through in order? Yeah,

145
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 2: and just kind of we don't have to spend too

146
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 2: much time on each dance. But uh so, uh, I'm

147
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 2: just sorry our producer age. You made these incredible notes

148
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 2: for us, and then I also have my personal ones

149
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 2: that I wrote, and it's just funny saying Australian Tourism

150
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 2: commercial with Robert Irwin. H And the opening number was great.

151
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 2: It was so fun seeing everybody back and they peppered

152
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 2: them throughout the show and that was so fun to see.

153
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 2: I loved it. And I was thinking, actually, really really quick,

154
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 2: I have a question for you, because you lived this,

155
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 2: you went through this, what was it like. It's not

156
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 2: that in the great scheme of things, the time between

157
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 2: being eliminated and coming back for the finale, it's it's

158
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 2: what like two months or something. Like eight weeks.

159
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: For us first eliminated. I just I just remember it's

160
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: right before Thanksgiving, and it's like, yeah, wow, so it's

161
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,719
Speaker 1: a it's a tough. And I remember being in rehearsal

162
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: that last week right before Thanksgiving, like every day and

163
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 1: ordering like my turkey online, like sitting with Dina Kats

164
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,320
Speaker 1: who's the producer, and we were sitting in the in

165
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 1: the audience waiting, you know, we're all waiting for your

166
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,319
Speaker 1: little bits to rehearse and everything, but in the ballroom.

167
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 1: So it was like probably the day before the finale,

168
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: so Monday, sitting there and I was like, oh my god,

169
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,559
Speaker 1: because I had been filming, so I was on Dancing

170
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: with the Stars got eliminated first, which I didn't anticipate,

171
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: but because of that, a movie I was supposed to do,

172
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 1: I had to turn down. I was able to do.

173
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: So then I flew to Florida. Yes, yep, that's where

174
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 1: I did that, and I went literally from that flight

175
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:55,679
Speaker 1: home right back into the ballroom to do the finale.

176
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 2: Wow.

177
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 1: So like landed the very next morning, so I didn't

178
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: have anything planned for Thanksgiving and we're there till Tuesday

179
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 1: before Thanksgiving is on a Thursday, you know, all night.

180
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,359
Speaker 1: So I didn't have my turkey, and Diana's like Gelson's

181
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 1: we will still have it. So I'm like, we're online

182
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: and like ordering my turkey Gilson's. Goss is your big fan.

183
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,559
Speaker 2: We love you, Gelson's, we love you. Thanks for saving Thanksgiving.

184
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 2: I was curious, like what the rehearsal was like after,

185
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 2: because you know, I'm sure you didn't stop. You know,

186
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 2: you're still dancing in your daily life, I'm sure, but

187
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 2: like you're not in a rehearsal. No, how was it

188
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 2: like going from rehearsing so hard for the first couple

189
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 2: weeks of the show being eliminated, then I imagine it

190
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 2: coming to a complete halt and then going back into

191
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 2: it to do these there's several dances you have to

192
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 2: do in the finale, yes, so yeah, I.

193
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 1: Had to do lifts and spins and I good news

194
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 1: is I did all my own stunts, most of my

195
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 1: own stunts in the Everglades, so kept my body moving

196
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 1: because to go from that extreme, you know me, I

197
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 1: don't do anything physical, Like I park as close as

198
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: I can to the mall to walk in, like I

199
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: do not want to walk. I'm not that girl. But yeah,

200
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,679
Speaker 1: I went in and I went in deep, and I

201
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 1: rehearsed my butt off, and like didn't like to go

202
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: from that intense training seven days a week. It was wild.

203
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,200
Speaker 1: But so I went from that doing some stunts but

204
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 1: like not dancing. And then when you go back in

205
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: you're like in it and you're like, oh my god.

206
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,679
Speaker 1: So you're obviously not as like loosened up as you

207
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: were because you were rehearsing every day and they're on

208
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 1: such a schedule they don't have time to like, you know,

209
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: Pasha did the best he could, but he doesn't have

210
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 1: time to like start all over again with me, you know.

211
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's uh, I mean we all have.

212
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 1: To rehearse together, so we can't even do it in

213
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: you know, the the studio where they show the rooms

214
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: that they're in in the packages each week, Yeah, because

215
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 1: we all have to be there together. So we have

216
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 1: to go to a different studio so we can have

217
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,599
Speaker 1: a huge space to all rehearse together. Except the finalists

218
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 1: don't rehearse with us. Okay, they're doing their own thing.

219
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 1: It's just all of us eliminate ones that rehearse our

220
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: little bits.

221
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 2: It was so fun to see and I was thinking

222
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 2: about the people that were eliminated first, which Baron Davis

223
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 2: and Corey Feldman, and it was fun seeing them back

224
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 2: and I thought that, and I was like, kind of watching,

225
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, I don't think especially, I'm sorry, but

226
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 2: Baron Davis, I just don't see him dancing in between.

227
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,319
Speaker 2: But they both did great. They it's great, Yeah, it was.

228
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 2: It was really fun to see that. So are again

229
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 2: three dances tonight from our finalists. The first round is

230
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 2: the Judge's Choice, where a judge gets assigned to a

231
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 2: couple and they choose which dance they're going to do.

232
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 2: And our first first competitors Alex Earl and Valishi Murkowsky

233
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 2: Carrie Anne asked them to do a samba and which

234
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 2: is intimidating, but she did incredible. I think it was great.

235
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:18,160
Speaker 2: It was so good. She had these cool like, uh,

236
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 2: I don't know if you want to call him Tassel

237
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 2: or fringe, these crazy pants that she wears a couple

238
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 2: of times throughout the night, and she looked great.

239
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: She did the splits Alex love its pants. Now.

240
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 2: I was wondering that too, because Rickey wore very similar pants. Yes,

241
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 2: I'm hoping they're the same. I don't know if they're

242
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 2: like similarly, you know, how close they're in height or whatever.

243
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 2: But I saw those you know, I love those pants.

244
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 2: I was gravitating towards those pants.

245
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: You'd look great.

246
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 2: Oh, thank you. I'm going to try and grab a

247
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 2: dupe on Amazon. Yeah. It was a great dance. Carry

248
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 2: Anne loved it and which made me happy because she

249
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 2: chose it. She called it a refined fierceness, and I

250
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 2: wrote down, I'm like, I want Alex to win so badly.

251
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 2: I wanted to win so bad and I knew it

252
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 2: was unlikely based on how things have been going, but

253
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 2: I really think she was just has improved so much.

254
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: The night before. So it was rehearsal night. Did you

255
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: see that video of them rehearsing Val and Alex that's

256
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: on Instagram.

257
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 2: I'm sure I did because I followed him both now.

258
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. So I'm a like Val is one of

259
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: the nicest, kindest humans ever, and he's so strong and

260
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 1: professional that you don't always get to see that side

261
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 1: of him on the show. And he was the one

262
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: like so evolved in like spiritual and like moments where

263
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: I would be like, oh, you know, in the makeup

264
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 1: trailer behind. He would always calm me down and always

265
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: had the right things to say, and he's just a really,

266
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: really amazing human. So watching that video it was their

267
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: last rehearsal and they were gonna, I was like, oh

268
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: my god. So I like replied, and I was like,

269
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: in val, I trust, like, I love you so much

270
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: and I look forward to knowing you. Alex, like this

271
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: partnership has broken barriers and I love it. And he

272
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: hearted it back and I was just like, oh, I

273
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 1: love it. I became such a fan of the season. This

274
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,800
Speaker 1: is so cool. Anyway. Yeah, I was right with you.

275
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: I really wanted them to win, but you knew they weren't,

276
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: right because two seasons ago he took home the mirror ball,

277
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: and then last season his wife took him the mirror ball.

278
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 1: And they have to play it fair drink.

279
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 2: Huh Okay, yes they do. I guess it. I I

280
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 2: just it's fresh trading. It is because I really I

281
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 2: just shove strongly believe Alex Erle was the best dancer

282
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 2: last night anyway, perfect ten score as deserved. Dylan Ephron

283
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 2: in between night. Sorry, it was it's Bruno's birthday. His

284
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 2: seventieth birthday, which is incredible.

285
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 1: That man does not look seventy no.

286
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 2: And he's got so much energy.

287
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 1: My godsh have you ever met him in person?

288
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 2: I never have No.

291
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 2: I've met Derek Huff in person, but I haven't met

292
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 2: Carrie Anne nor Bruno.

293
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:40,960
Speaker 1: They're all great.

294
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:46,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, we love our judges. In between the dances, they

295
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 2: are kind of pepper in some I was calling it

296
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 2: member this segments where they just look back on the series,

297
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 2: the season as a whole and kind of go back

298
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,719
Speaker 2: to the early early dances and some of the eliminated competitors.

299
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:00,360
Speaker 2: That was a lot of fun.

300
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 1: In between those moments, that's where oh, I texted you

301
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: last night. But I decided to won't never make anything

302
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 1: easy in my life. I'd like to go for the hardest.

303
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: So while I had to watch the three hour finale,

304
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 1: I also decided to make Homie meatload for my children,

305
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 1: which I'll tell you later how that went. But yeah,

306
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,919
Speaker 1: so I took those moments of the flashbacks to be

307
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: like check on my food, check on my food. Okay, anyway,

308
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:29,159
Speaker 1: that was good for me.

309
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was afraid for the three hours. I was

310
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 2: because you know, that's daunting and I'm more.

328
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,360
Speaker 2: And I was also excited to teach my wife what

329

00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 2: come on j Loo, you know, I was thinking about

335

Speaker 2: it living color because I did a fire Marshal Bill

336
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,159

00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,480

00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 2: Dylan Efron and Danielle like got their first dance, the

339
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 2: Passive Doblay, chosen by Bruno the Birthday Boy. This was very,

340
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 2: very good. The shirt came off quick in this dance. Yes,

341
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,199
Speaker 2: he did not have a shirt on for long. He

342
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 2: really wants that mirror ball. Now you can see the determination.

343
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 2: The ballroom went nuts at this dance. Everyone is on

344
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 2: their feet and Alfonso is he loves saying that the

345
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:32,959
Speaker 2: ballroom loves it. I did not. I was impressed with this.

346
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 1: I did not either. I didn't know where you were

347
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 1: going with that. And I was like, wait this disagreed, disagree. Wow,

348
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 1: it's felt stiff. I yeah, I waged so much progress

349
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: this season. And then that was his first dance out

350
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 1: and I was.

351
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, so I'm you know, I thought it was

352
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 2: underwhelming as well. And there's a part where he like

353
00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 2: shuffles Danielle under his leg that was kind of cool.

354
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 2: That was the only part that I really loved.

355
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: It got better, but the first part was just and

356
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 1: then I in my brain was trying to be like, well,

357
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 1: is this on purpose because it's a possible dobl a.

358
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: Is he supposed to be stiffed like the Mauta door

359
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: And I'm like but then I'm like, no, I think

360
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:15,120
Speaker 1: it just.

361
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just the ability wasn't there, and you know,

362
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 2: it's it's funny on this The ability in this finale

363
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 2: is so high. There's so many perfect scores tonight that like,

364
00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 2: if you get like he got straight nines, which I

365
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 2: think earlier in the season that would have been like,

366
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:33,959
Speaker 2: oh my god, I can't believe how well he did.

367
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 2: Now it's oh god, that's a terrible score.

368
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: The finale, you get nines, You're like, you suck. Yeah,

369
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: It's like yeah, home man, I just got to point

Speaker 2: realize it was such a cultural touchstone to that movie.

413
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: It is actually.

414
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,959
Speaker 2: So uh Yeah. Elaine Hendricks is great and I'm so

416
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 2: take my Breath Away.

417
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 1: From Top gun I. This is the first dance. I cried.

418
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 2: Me too. I got very emotional.

419
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 1: She just it was so beautiful. And have you noticed

420
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 1: on this journey with Dancing with the Stars she has

421
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 1: had what some call the Hollywood glow up?

422
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, I have noticed that.

423
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: Like she just keeps getting younger and more like glamor.

424
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, she looked amazing.

425
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. And something I keep thinking about is like,

426
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 2: while the season's on this they keep saying that this

427
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,159
Speaker 2: season has been breaking so many like ratings wreck or

428
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 2: it is voting records, just everyone's watching the season.

429
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: This is they.

430
00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 2: Keep telling They keep reminding us that, And I don't

431
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 2: know if I'm just in I'm into Dancing with the

432
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 2: Star's bubble, I'm I'm thinking about constantly. Everyone I work

433
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 2: with is talking about it constantly. But it seems in

434
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:20,400
Speaker 2: the past the viewership has skewed more older. I think, yeah,

435
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 2: it's been for older people that watch it, and this

436
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 2: season a lot of younger people are watching for the

437
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 2: Alex Earls and such and and I think Ezra's really

438
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 2: bringing in a lot of young people too. So I'm

439
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:38,960
Speaker 2: what I'm curious about for Elaine specifically, is like, is

440
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 2: Dancing with the Stars. I don't want to say a

441
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,479
Speaker 2: launching point because these people are already stars, but like,

442
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 2: is it going to reinvigorate certain certain people's careers? Like

443
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 2: are we going to see more of Elaine Hendricks around

444
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:53,120
Speaker 2: after this?

445
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: Okay, so historically at least this is what is what

446
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 1: I was told every season. I always said I was

447
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 1: offered Dance with the Stars, it was too nervous to

448
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 1: do it, didn't do it, And when I would talk

449
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: to people that were on it, I'd be like, they'd

450
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:14,679
Speaker 1: be like, it literally restores your career. Like not that

451
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 1: people aren't relevant, but like people, every single person that

452
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: does Dancing with the Stars goes on to do something

453
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 1: else unexpected great, like a real, real career climb. Except

454
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 1: when I did it, what happened that is such My

455
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: Life's like Tori's life, like, Oh, I'm gonna finally do

456
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: this climb the mountain and it's like hello, hello, knocking

457
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: on doors, like all the lights are off. Nothing happened

458
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 1: after that, but we're doing misstepping. So this there's something

459
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 1: but yeah something, Yes, everyone says it does something for

460
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: everybody's career. So Elaine Hendricks will something huge will come.

461
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 2: For her out office, I hope because she's it was

462
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 2: so fun to watch. I really enjoyed watching her story too.

463
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,719
Speaker 2: She was so great, and you know, I'm so appreciative

464
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 2: of her doing this podcast and hanging out with you too.

465
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see her in person.

466
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 2: She's great and This dance was great too. She had

467
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,919
Speaker 2: a Derek huff chose a rumba to take my breathway

468
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,120
Speaker 2: as we as we mentioned from Taiga, and she did

469
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 2: this crazy twirl. I thought she had great control over

470
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 2: her hands. I'm watching the hands a line. She looked

471
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 2: very good, a very gentle and tender dance, which I

472
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 2: was so emotional.

473
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 1: And you think you show there like you wanted them

474
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: to kiss them too, like you've done in the past.

475
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,840
Speaker 2: Of course, I don't want everybody to kiss that's a dream.

476
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:39,840

482
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:58,080

Speaker 2: they were getting really close and like they each kissed

493
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 2: a couple of times, which I thought was so fun

494
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 2: because I'm like, oh, they're they're married, they can kiss

495
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 2: on the dance floor, which satisfied the cardinal urges I

00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: rumors on Reddit that Alan and Emma are together, and

509
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm with them every day. No, no,

00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 2: for Elaine, who's just been through it like this season,

515
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 2: like that crazy injury and you know, and she's the

516
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 2: oldest competitor in the finals. But how lucky she was

517
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 2: to have a partner like that. He's just so he

518
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 2: seems so great.

519
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: They're really talented of matching the pros with their celebs

520
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: on not just emotional needs as well. They're very skilled

521
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: in knowing that, and you can't truly know it until

522
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: they start their partnership. But kudos to Dancing with the

523
00:29:59,000 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 1: Stars producers.

524
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 2: It's so and you know, just to go to go

525
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 2: back to Alex, my my fam hero for a second.

526
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 2: She pointed out in I can't remember if it was

527
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 2: in the first Dancer and that's or later on, but

528
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 2: she pointed out that she and Val were the only

529
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 2: partners that didn't hug on the first day she came

530
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 2: in and they shook hands. And I heard from another

531
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:25,400
Speaker 2: from someone else who was there that when everyone met

532
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 2: Alex for the first time, she like, everyone's hugging each other.

533
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 2: You know, everyone knows you're going to be in this

534
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 2: for a long time. Like so, I think everyone's like

535
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 2: really familiar right away, and everyone wants to hug each other.

536
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 2: Alex shook everybody's hands. She didn't hug anybody, And this

537
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 2: person said they thought that was interesting. And now she

538
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 2: and Val are like super close, and there were rumors

539
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 2: that she and Val didn't get along. That was an

540
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 2: early rumor. Was it like they Yeah, I saw it

541
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 2: online that they they didn't like each other.

542
00:30:54,560 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 1: But they're very, very tough love on his celebrity. He's

543
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 1: like he he's not easy, but that's why he gets

544
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 1: so much out of them exactly, but he's also so kind. Hmmm,

545
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: do you think that's true or they just made that

546
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: up online?

547
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 2: I don't know, that's just that's what I heard. That's

548
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 2: what I heard. I mean, there's got to be something,

549
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 2: you know, maybe they just made it up. So back

550
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 2: to Elaine and Allen. Derek loved their dance and I

551
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 2: was thinking about this judge's choice one. I was like,

552
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 2: the judge who picks the dance, it kind of works

553
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 2: them a little bit too, you know, like they're just

554
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 2: going to automatically love it. Is that that's something I

555
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,880
Speaker 2: can guarantee they have I improven wrong, I improven wrong

556
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 2: just a few dances later, right, yes, yes, we will

557
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 2: get into yeah. But I was like, oh, well, the

558
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 2: when with this round, we can at least guarantee one

559
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 2: of the Judges is going to be like obsessed with

560
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 2: what they're doing. Derek loved this dance. They got a

561
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 2: perfect ten, they got tens across the board and it

562
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 2: was just it was a great It was a great dance.

563
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 2: It was so fun come back with a little Lady

564
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 2: Gaga dance. We got to see Scott Hoyning, he's a

565
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 2: huge Lady Gaga fan, dance to that. So that was

566
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 2: really fun to see. And now we're moving on to

567
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 2: our would be champion, Robert Irwin and Whitney Carson. Derek

568
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 2: has chosen a quick step for them to are You

569
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 2: Gonna Be My Girl? By Jet and this so they

570
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 2: should point out that Robert has a rib injury, and

571
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 2: I was like, are they setting us up for him

572
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,719
Speaker 2: to be not very good but like kind of give

573
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 2: him a pass because he's injured, or is it like,

574
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 2: oh wow, look, how look how good he was. He's

575
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 2: in he's injured too, And I was like, this is

576
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 2: like kind of tainting how we're looking at this. But

577
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 2: I said out loud, I was like, he could not

578
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 2: dance the entire show and he's still gonna win. This

579
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 2: is how that's everyone's made up their minds already.

580
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 1: I have many thoughts about this first dance with Robert

581
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 1: and Whitney. I came away from this dance very upset, Wow,

582
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 1: very upset because I felt which didn't reflect except in

583
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: Carrie Anne, but everyone else gave them ten. So I

584
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 1: was like, did I see this wrong? I felt like

585
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 1: he was friggin dragging his progue across the dance floor. Yes,

586
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 1: in my opinion, Whinny Carson, she's a wife, she's a mom,

587
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: She's incredible dancer, so skilled, so dedicated, and it pissed

588
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 1: me off on her behalf because I was like, what's

589
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,320
Speaker 1: he proving here? Like it almost made her look like

590
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: she wasn't in control, And there were moments where I

591
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 1: could see on her face. I was just like, oh

592
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 1: my gosh, what are you doing? I thought she was

593
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: gonna have an injury afterwards because he was being so

594
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: forceful with her, and I got pissed me off on

595
00:33:58,200 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: her behalf.

596
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 2: Sorry, I I I agree, uh, And I was watching

597
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 2: this and I'm like, you would not know he was

598
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,919
Speaker 2: injured based on this dance. I didn't think. I'm I'm

599
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 2: not saying he wasn't injured, but I'm just saying maybe

600
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 2: it's overblown a little bit because he was being very forceful.

601
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 2: I had I had the same thought. Uh, the doctor

602
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:22,280
Speaker 2: in the in the package says the choreo the choreo

603
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:26,839
Speaker 2: had to be creatively altered to not aggravate his injury more.

604
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,839
Speaker 2: And I don't know if that meant now he gets

605
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 2: to drag around like a rag doll or whatever.

606
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,760
Speaker 1: Overcompment saying, I don't know what happened because they're usually

607
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,719
Speaker 1: on point, but it's like it's it felt like he

608
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,240
Speaker 1: was just going forward and like not listening to his partner.

609
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 1: I don't know. It was odd. Didn't love that.

610
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,919
Speaker 2: Jez and Uh, Bruno and Derek gave him tense Darren

611
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 2: held him the quick step King, and he had a

612
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 2: part time getting that that out. But then carry Anne

613
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 2: had the we didn't have the butt heard around the world.

614
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: I noticed that too, because he wanted to say Queen yes,

615
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 1: and he couldn't get the word. And then he was

616
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 1: like what's happening and he's like King, and I was like,

617
00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:09,759
Speaker 1: oh my god.

618
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,080
Speaker 2: He stood up and kind of played off like he

619
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 2: was like being overcome with emotion like Bruno exactly yeah,

620
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 2: and then Carrie Anne's like it was okay, but and

621
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 2: then everyone starts booing. She didn't even get I didn't

622
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,880
Speaker 2: hear her critique. I didn't hear what she didn't like

623
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,799
Speaker 2: about it because everyone started booing, and then she had

624
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,320
Speaker 2: to like, I was afraid for her safety, honestly, like

625
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 2: everyone was so mad that she wasn't just giving it

626
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 2: a ten. And she said there was a mistake, but

627
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 2: she would didn't couldn't vocalize what the mistake was, so

628
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 2: she gave it a nine for that unknown mistake.

629
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: We'll have to find that online. I'm sure it's somewhere online.

630
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:51,320
Speaker 2: What she said, it's something. And then we go to

631
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,480
Speaker 2: a commercial break and come back with we have to

632
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 2: see our beloved Daniel fishal Andy Richter, and Whitney Levitt dancing.

633
00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 2: We were calling them the fan favorite crew. Yeah, the

634
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,400
Speaker 2: the Yeah, everyone loves all three of them. It was

635
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 2: fun to see them dancing again in that like kind

636
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 2: of tower thing. That was fun. Jordan, Chiles and Ezra's

637
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:13,680
Speaker 2: as so our next Carrie Anne gave them a passive

638
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 2: doblay to breaking dishes by Rihanna, and that's when we

639
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:22,280
Speaker 2: learned that carry girl. Yes, that's when I learned Jordan

640
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,800
Speaker 2: was very excited about that, as was everybody. That was

641
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,439
Speaker 2: really fun and I realized I don't know much about

642
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 2: carry Ane's background, so I would like to research more

643
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,479
Speaker 2: because I'm sure there's more surprising things. Yes, I thought

644
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 2: that Jordan was like dragging a bit on this. I

645
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 2: thought she was kind of behind Ezra and it was good,

646
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 2: but I.

647
00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: Think it was I didn't love it either, and that's

648
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 1: when I was like, oh, they're not going to be

649
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 1: in like being one. It's the finals. There was no

650
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:02,239
Speaker 1: one eliminated, like it's I know want like, well no,

651
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,800
Speaker 1: because we got to see them all dance. I feel

652
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 1: like they used to do it where like in the

653
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:11,759
Speaker 1: beginning of the show, three would go home. Do I

654
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:13,080
Speaker 1: say this every like around home?

655
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 2: Like yeah, like they would eliminate people throughout the episode

656
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 2: and then yeah.

657
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,879
Speaker 1: But I just can't do that because they've all worked

658
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 1: so hard, these three dances, but be a little more exciting, and.

659
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 2: We kind of get because you know, when they do

660
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 2: the eliminations, it would just be like a random group

661
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 2: and then the two lowest scoring people and so we

662
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,439
Speaker 2: kind of get a version of eliminations when they because

663
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 2: they tell us like who got fifth, who got fourth right, and.

664
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 1: It's not the same fact.

665
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 2: I'm just like, no, it's exactly exactly. Yeah. So Carrie

666
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:54,760
Speaker 2: Anne had a problem with this one too, and everyone

667
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,919
Speaker 2: started booing again, and I was like, oh, my gosh,

668
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 2: she can be like attacked by an angry mob, like

669
00:37:59,000 --> 00:37:59,800
Speaker 2: just for having it.

670
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:04,879
Speaker 1: And then and then wait, this is the one where

671
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: someone said something in the audience.

672
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 2: Correct someone someone yells is something at her and she's like,

673
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 2: what'd you say to me?

674
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 1: She goes, what did you say? And like she stood

675
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 1: up like this, and I could have sworn, like her

676
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 1: middle finger was kind of like pointed out, and I

677
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, it's going to go down.

678
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: Didn't you kind of wanted I didn't want her to

679
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 1: get hurt. But I love this she.

680
00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 2: Stood up, yes, because we've talked about this before. She

681
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 2: is a She is a lone woman up there with

682
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 2: two guys, and she often has something unpopular to say,

683
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 2: and I just feel like she's in a really tough position. Uh,

684
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 2: and someone came at her. It's crazy. The notes in

685
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 2: here say someone allegedly yelled the F word or shut

686
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 2: up be to her, and which sucks, like let her

687
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:55,360
Speaker 2: do her damn job. My God. I know it's not popular, but.

688
00:38:56,840 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 1: Okay, I do have to say she has stepped up

689
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 1: to take on this role. That's a bit different than

690
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 1: how she's been in the past. She's critiquing, people are

691
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:14,200
Speaker 1: booing her. She has accepted it, come into it. She

692
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 1: used to be like, oh, Carrie Inne, she's the female,

693
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: we love her. She's in her villain era. So it's like, oh,

694
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 1: she's accepted this role. And do you think now they're

695
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 1: pushing it further and encouraging her.

696
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 2: Possibly because that's what gets people talking.

697
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: Yes, so did someone actually shout something or was that all?

698
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting. Interesting. Next up we have the Instant Dance,

699
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 2: which is so exciting. But before we talk about that,

700
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,320
Speaker 2: we got to take a quick break. Okay, we'll be

701
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 2: right back with more misstepping. Hey, it's miss Stepping. My

702
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 2: name's Easton Allen. I'm hanging out with Tory Spelling, the

703
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 2: host of this show. She has allowed me into her

704
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 2: home to talk about the finale of Dancing with the

705
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,479
Speaker 2: Stars Season thirty four. The Instant Dance is this next round.

706
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 2: They find out the dance and the song five minutes

707
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 2: before they have to do it. My god, this is insane.

708
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,040
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe this round, like that this was the

709
00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:17,800
Speaker 2: thing you have to do.

710
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 1: So my kids are like, wait, wait, wait is this real?

711
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 2: Is it?

712
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 1: And I was like, I don't know, actually, because we

713
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 1: don't get to see that part when all the we

714
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: come back the finalists were hers separately, so oh man,

715
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,400
Speaker 1: and I was so focused on that, like dress rehearsal

716
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 1: that day and everything. I don't know, but like there

717
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:50,439
Speaker 1: must be some conversation like if this is the app

718
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:52,880
Speaker 1: that you see, you pick this, like do you think anything?

719
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 2: I don't know, because they show them preparing in the

720
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 2: packages for anything, like they they I think they have.

721
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 2: They make them prepare for all every dance and then

722
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 2: they pull the one that they end up choosing and

723
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 2: something that like I don't know if it was cooked

724
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:12,759
Speaker 2: or not, but I just enjoyed. Was when we got

725
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 2: to Dylan and Danielle. There was a part right it

726
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 2: was after they'd gotten changed, but before they started they

727
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 2: come back from breaking. You could see Danielle on her

728
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,200
Speaker 2: iPhone listening to the song and like kind of doing things,

729
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 2: doing moves, and I was really I thought that was

730
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,320
Speaker 2: cool because I'm like, oh God, like they really have

731
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:32,879
Speaker 2: to come up with this on the spot, Like that's

732
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:35,800
Speaker 2: what if it's a song that I don't know like it?

733
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 2: I mean, I think that happened with like when they

734
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 2: got you know, well, we have to get into Alex

735
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,280
Speaker 2: and Val. But Dylan and Danielle got Ordinary by Alex Warren,

736
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 2: which is the number one song in the country and

737
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 2: was for a very long time. I don't think they

738
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:56,879
Speaker 2: knew that song though, And and like Robert says later

739
00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:01,360
Speaker 2: on that he uses this, he never figured out the counting,

740
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,279
Speaker 2: which I don't know if that's true or not, but

741
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 2: he's like, I never I never figured out the counting.

742
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 2: I had to use a song for the I used

743
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 2: the music and I don't know this song? So how

744
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 2: are we going to do this? And like it's it's

745
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 2: an incredible challenge.

746
00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 1: I I.

747
00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 2: I was trying to do it, but I think, well,

748
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 2: so first up is Alex in Val. Yes, they selected

749
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,919
Speaker 2: Blindfolded a chachat to Where Is My Husband? By Ray,

750
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 2: which is a very fun song and uh, actually you

751
00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:38,280
Speaker 2: know what they pointed. People were pointing this out online

752
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 2: that the song was interesting because I don't think Alex's

753
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 2: boyfriend has been to a taping the whole.

754
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 1: This is the first one.

755
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 2: I don't think No, I don't think he was there.

756
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 1: He wasn't he was in the package.

757
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 2: She was in the package. I know she had a boyfriend.

758
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 1: What do you mean? You know I came into this

759
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 1: not knowing who she was. But then, thank you Instagram,

760
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 1: I went down the rabbit hole dancing with the stars.

761
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 1: I love her now, but.

762
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, And he's a he's an NFL player,

763
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,239
Speaker 2: which is the season is going on, so I you know,

764
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:15,400
Speaker 2: I understand if you can't take time off to come

765
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 2: to LA to watch her dance. But everyone was pointing

766
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:21,360
Speaker 2: out like, oh, it's interesting she danced to where is

767
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 2: my husband when her husband or her boyfriend has been

768
00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 2: absent for the entire season.

769
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 1: Interesting? And this is her second athlete that she's been with.

770
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,279
Speaker 1: How does that happen in life? I've never dated an

771
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 1: athlete or a musician? Really, no, Like, how do you like,

772
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:41,440
Speaker 1: how does that happen? Like it's not like she's single,

773
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 1: like singling out like I want to date a famous athlete?

774
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 1: Or is that like on her that on her manifestation

775
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:50,719
Speaker 1: mood board? Who knows? Yeah?

776
00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 2: Does she hang out with athletes? Like?

777
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 1: How?

778
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 2: I wonder how that works anyway, we got to see

779
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 2: her fringe parts came back on yep, an incredible dance,

780
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 2: perfect score. I loved it. I was like, oh, she

781
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 2: she I'm again. I'm like, I want her to win

782
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 2: this so badly. I think she has a chance to win.

783
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,880
Speaker 2: But if I had to put money down like everyone

784
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,919
Speaker 2: else in Vegas did, it would be on Robert, which

785
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 2: said uh. Then we move on to Dylan and Daniella,

786
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,240
Speaker 2: who chose a Fox Trot to Ordinary by Alex Warren.

787
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 2: And something I enjoy is when they go up to

788
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 2: like get their assignments, they're both wearing robes and you know,

789
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 2: I don't know. I liked to think. I was watching

790
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:33,959
Speaker 2: like I wonder, very I won't have to just naked

791
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,520
Speaker 2: under there. This is kind of fun. It was fun

792
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:38,480
Speaker 2: to see. It looked like they were coming out of

793
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:39,440
Speaker 2: like a spa or something.

794
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,799
Speaker 1: It was fun and we're thinking that what.

795
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:44,840
Speaker 2: Is going on under the robe? I want to know,

796
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 2: un wrapped.

797
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 1: So that is the robe they give every contestant for

798
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: the season. Each season they have a different rope, so

799
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: like I have mine up here. Up here, that's so

800
00:44:57,040 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 1: fun upstairs, my Dancing with the Stars, and it has

801
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 1: like you're name on and whatever, and yeah, so you

802
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:05,360
Speaker 1: have that robe.

803
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:08,800
Speaker 2: When you did Mass Singer, they did, they give you

804
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,640
Speaker 2: a hoodie that says, don't talk to me. I I

805
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 2: thought that was so cool and I Jana Kramer, who

806
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:20,719
Speaker 2: did one of the latest seasons, posted about it and

807
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 2: I told her how much I loved that hoodie and

808
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 2: I thought it was so cool, and she gave me

809
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 2: her hoodie. I have my mask singer hoodie and now

810
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 2: and now I got to get my hands on one

811
00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:30,399
Speaker 2: of these robes. That's my next goal.

812
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 1: You want my robe.

813
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:34,879
Speaker 2: I don't want to take a robe from your toy

814
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 2: that belongs to the Smithsonian. You kidding me? Oh my god,

815
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 2: don't Felderman get his robe.

816
00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:43,480
Speaker 1: He'll give it to you.

817
00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:49,239
Speaker 2: Uh so, Yeah. Next up Dylan and Daniella they fox Trot.

818
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 1: That's a tough one.

819
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:55,320
Speaker 2: It's hard and five minutes to prepare. You know. The

820
00:45:55,400 --> 00:46:00,080
Speaker 2: whole season they keep saying Daniella is a ferrari. You know,

821
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 2: you got to be the leading man, but it's so

822
00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,399
Speaker 2: hard because she's such a powerful dancer. And I could

823
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 2: see that come right back with this one. I felt

824
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 2: like Daniella was leading this. He was carrying it. I

825
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 2: thought that it was I thought that it was good,

826
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 2: but also I'm like, oh, he's not He's just doing

827
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,719
Speaker 2: what she's telling him to do. The judges loved it.

828
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 2: They went crazy. I believe, you know, I gotta look ahead.

829
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 2: I think this is the beginning of where every single

830
00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:27,000
Speaker 2: dance is a perfect ten from here on out. Oh

831
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:29,960
Speaker 2: there's one. There is one dance that is not a

832
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 2: perfect ten for the rest of the show, one or two.

833
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:36,759
Speaker 1: But I mean this instant dance. You really, this is

834
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:42,600
Speaker 1: where the celebrity has to completely just trust their pro yes,

835
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:46,239
Speaker 1: because they are either saying it out loud to them,

836
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,919
Speaker 1: reminding them like you know, like foxtrot, like this move

837
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:56,520
Speaker 1: that move, squeezing their hand, pushing, guiding them. Obviously, it's

838
00:46:56,680 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 1: easier for the male professionals to guide their female The

839
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 1: females are with men and they have to like where

840
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: Daniella and yeah, she is a powerhouse, so no doubt.

841
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 1: She was just like, just trust me and let's go.

842
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 2: After their dan After Dylan and Danielle, I was like,

843
00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 2: oh my, I wrote down, like, you know, I was

844
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,800
Speaker 2: convinced it was gonna be Robert and now I'm not

845
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,080
Speaker 2: so sure. I wonder. I'm like, there's a chance because

846
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 2: Robert's first dance was not that great, and I was like,

847
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,359
Speaker 2: you know what, maybe I'm wrong. Like I could see

848
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:32,080
Speaker 2: Dylan waiting this thing now like everyone's loving him tonight.

849
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,879
Speaker 1: This is where I thought the same thing talk about

850
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:40,319
Speaker 1: this wild ride. I was like, oh wait, he could

851
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 1: take it.

852
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 2: It's all going to come down to the fan votes,

853
00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:48,480
Speaker 2: but everyone's just getting perfect scorests up. Elena and Allen

854
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:52,640
Speaker 2: dancing a quick step to you Can't Hurry Love. She

855
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:58,920
Speaker 2: she missed a couple moves and it wasn't perfect. But

856
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:01,320
Speaker 2: something I liked about the dance that is I was

857
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:03,640
Speaker 2: watching her face and you can tell she's having so

858
00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:05,640
Speaker 2: much fun. Yeah, she was having so much fun, which

859
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:06,320
Speaker 2: just made me happy.

860
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:06,839
Speaker 1: Yeah.

861
00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:09,880
Speaker 2: And then I'm sorry I got so fixated on this,

862
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,320
Speaker 2: but after their dance, I heard Alfonso say head on

863
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 2: up to the AT and T Skybox, and I was like,

864
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:17,840
Speaker 2: has this thing been sponsored the whole time? And I

865
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 2: just am now noticing or is this just for the finale?

866
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 2: And it was sponsored by AT and T at least

867
00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 2: last night, so you know, we got to see the

868
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:28,879
Speaker 2: AT and T Skybox. He ain't called that every time,

869
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:32,719
Speaker 2: but I did I know that. So they did not

870
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:34,879
Speaker 2: get a perfect score. They got straight nines for this one.

871
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 2: And you know, she's having fun. That's what this is about.

872
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:41,000
Speaker 2: We're having fun and we're learning how to dance. Robert

873
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 2: Irwin and Whitney Carson at chaw Chaw to Cake by

874
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:47,520
Speaker 2: the Ocean by d Nce. I he.

875
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 1: What this is? Where I thought? I was like, oh,

876
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,839
Speaker 1: maybe we all have this wrong and he can't dance

877
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,800
Speaker 1: unless he's perfect trained for each I thought he he

878
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,920
Speaker 1: didn't do great in this like he. I thought so too, okay,

879
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:07,360
Speaker 1: but they got sons.

880
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:10,080
Speaker 2: They did, and that's when I was like, what the

881
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 2: hell is going on here? Because I wrote down like

882
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:15,600
Speaker 2: he says in the package, like I don't have I

883
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 2: don't know how the counts work. I have to use

884
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:18,399
Speaker 2: the music and I don't know the song.

885
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 1: Uh.

886
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 2: And watching the dance I can see he was like

887
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:25,440
Speaker 2: visually checking in with Whitney so much like is this right?

888
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 2: Is this right?

889
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:28,799
Speaker 1: And like, oh, you know how he's checking in After

890
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:33,719
Speaker 1: he dragged her across the dance floor, I mean now

891
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,360
Speaker 1: and now it was like reversal of like power. He

892
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:39,919
Speaker 1: was like, oh help me, I got nothing here.

893
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 2: Yes, it's but you know, obviously I was wrong because.

894
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 1: They I was wrong too. They got all tens, they.

895
00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:49,759
Speaker 2: Got straight tense and you know, I don't want to

896
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:51,640
Speaker 2: rag on Julian have too much, but I did find

897
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:53,600
Speaker 2: it very funny that Confetti went in front of the

898
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:55,560
Speaker 2: teleprompter and she did not know what to do and

899
00:49:55,920 --> 00:49:58,200
Speaker 2: I felt bad for her, but she I missed that.

900
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 2: There's a part where when she's talking to them in

901
00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:04,360
Speaker 2: the skybox after they get their perfect tens, they shoot

902
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:07,360
Speaker 2: the confetti cannons yet again and she's like, there's a

903
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 2: glittering front of the prompter. Well I missed that, and

904
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:16,680
Speaker 2: I was like, what was the prompter saying back to you? Sorry?

905
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:19,600
Speaker 2: I thought that was funny, And next up.

906
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:24,719
Speaker 1: Into a pan at that point, yes, go on, yeah exactly. Uh.

907
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:29,040
Speaker 2: Jordan and Ezra our final instant dance. They chose a

908
00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,560
Speaker 2: tango to I Like It by a Lesso and Nate Smith,

909
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 2: and uh, it was good. I was excited to see Ezrad.

910
00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:42,000
Speaker 2: I'm just excited to see Ezra in the finals. You know,

911
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:44,560
Speaker 2: he seems so pumped on this. That was just fun

912
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:45,759
Speaker 2: to see him do every part of this.

913
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:46,759
Speaker 1: So that was cool.

914
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 2: Great, they were hoping for a tango. They got the tango.

915
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:50,799
Speaker 3: Uh.

916
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:55,120
Speaker 2: Really good footwork, cool kick move. They're great, much better

917
00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 2: than the first dance. I thought they got perfect tens

918
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 2: uh and then the final round.

919
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 1: At this point in this three hour show, I'm like,

920
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:07,440
Speaker 1: just get to the freestyle. This is all freestyle.

921
00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:08,840
Speaker 2: Yes, I can do.

922
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 1: Without the instant dance. If they want to cut an

923
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 1: hour out, I'm just saying, next year, do you know agree?

924
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:19,839
Speaker 2: Do you know? I like I liked the instant dance

925
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,479
Speaker 2: because I thought, I don't know how you know, real

926
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,560
Speaker 2: it was, but I liked the idea that like, oh,

927
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:27,320
Speaker 2: let's see how well they can do this with no prep,

928
00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 2: Like do they really have it? Or is this just

929
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:33,279
Speaker 2: like I don't know, I kind of liked. I kind

930
00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:38,359
Speaker 2: of like the instant dance. I think if we make

931
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:40,279
Speaker 2: it shorter, I'm sorry, but I think we just get

932
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 2: I want less uh less little packages and to remember

933
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:48,759
Speaker 2: the you know. But it was also fun to see

934
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:52,959
Speaker 2: everybody from from earlier in the season the freestyle again.

935
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:55,440

937
00:51:58,360 --> 00:51:59,600

Speaker 1: Even though I knew you wanted it from the beginning

965
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:18,960
Speaker 1: with her, but like this, at this moment when I

966
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:21,680
Speaker 1: saw it, I was like they must win.

967
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:25,080

969

970
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:36,239
Speaker 2: her to wait so bad. But yeah, oh well it was.

971
00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:38,279

972
00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:40,399
Speaker 2: watch this dance again. It was just so I loved

973
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:45,320
Speaker 2: it so much. Dylan and Daniella dancing to Something in

974
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:49,040
Speaker 2: the Heavens by Lewis Capaldi. He did this really cool

975
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 2: handstand that I thought was cool. He picked up so

976
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,799
Speaker 2: at one point he like throws Danielle in the air

977
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:59,319
Speaker 2: and then kind of catches her. And then right after

978
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 2: that she does this like running jump at him from

979
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:03,640
Speaker 2: the stage and carter again.

980
00:54:03,719 --> 00:54:05,680
Speaker 1: You saw the package, right, yeah?

981
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:11,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, well yeah, And also I would be afraid if

982
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,759
Speaker 2: I were Dylan because she's already broken his nose once.

983
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:16,880
Speaker 2: Is this gonna happen again? There's so much like velocity

984
00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:21,279
Speaker 2: coming at him from Daniella. Uh, this was a great

985
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:23,759
Speaker 2: dance too. They they they have water at the end

986
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:25,480
Speaker 2: of it. It was it was cool. I loved it

987
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:27,760
Speaker 2: this episode.

988
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: I had just watched Alex and Baal and I'm like,

989
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:34,440
Speaker 1: they must win, And then I watched the freestyle with

990
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 1: Tone and Daniella crying championing him, and I'm like, okay,

991
00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:44,239
Speaker 1: here I go on this ride. He must win now

992
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 1: on behalf of everyone, like he is our champion.

993
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:56,839
Speaker 2: I don't know, champion, Yes, yeah, what a I mean,

994
00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:58,880
Speaker 2: you said it best. But what a roller coaster this

995
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:01,960
Speaker 2: this finale. It's really you know, it's funny because we

996
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 2: we went into this whole thing kind of knowing who

997
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:06,840
Speaker 2: was going to win at the very first episode, but

998
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 2: but we still were unsure at the end.

999
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:15,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, so uh yeah, this it was great.

1000
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:19,200
Speaker 2: And the you know what made me emotional was hearing

1001
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:22,480
Speaker 2: Bruno talk about this dance. That made this was the

1002
00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:26,359
Speaker 2: second time I cried. Was he he said something. Let

1003
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:28,040
Speaker 2: me see if we have the exact quote here, but

1004
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 2: he said, uh, it was beautiful and poetic. You've captured

1005
00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 2: the elusive qualities of a dream, beautiful imagery I will

1006
00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:41,200
Speaker 2: never forget. And that I was like, what A like

1007
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,200
Speaker 2: if you take out everything that this is a competition

1008
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:46,080
Speaker 2: show and is a reality show and there's like a

1009
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:49,560
Speaker 2: trophy and everything, but like just people learning to express

1010
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:54,040
Speaker 2: themselves through dance and to create these images and express

1011
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,759
Speaker 2: this these emotions. I just I was like, what a

1012
00:55:57,280 --> 00:55:59,880
Speaker 2: It was just a beautiful way to to summer. I

1013
00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 2: is what what we're watching here? And I was like,

1014
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:03,799
Speaker 2: this is this is art that we're experiencing, and it's

1015
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:04,239
Speaker 2: so fun to.

1016
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,920
Speaker 1: Watch art that's It's exactly what it is.

1017
00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:17,000
Speaker 2: So before we move on to Elaine and Allen, we

1018
00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:19,640
Speaker 2: get to see a dance from last year the Raining

1019
00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:23,520
Speaker 2: Mirrorball Champions their last few moments as the reigning champions,

1020
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:27,200
Speaker 2: Jenny Johnson and Joey grazz a day and they did

1021
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:29,319
Speaker 2: a little dance that was fun to watch. It's fun

1022
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:31,719
Speaker 2: to watch him like rehearse after having not danced for

1023
00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:35,600
Speaker 2: probably a year. Yeah, and uh and but the thing

1024
00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:38,759
Speaker 2: I really loved about this moment was I don't know

1025
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 2: how I was trying to describe it to my wife,

1026
00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,640
Speaker 2: but there's a there's a like a little clip that

1027
00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 2: they play before every dancer that they filmed at the

1028
00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:49,000
Speaker 2: very beginning they're all in like the blue suit like

1029
00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:53,240
Speaker 2: wardrobe and yeah, it's like Dylan and Danielle like playing

1030
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,640
Speaker 2: with like with a disco ball with mirball. Yeah, and

1031
00:56:57,040 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 2: they before Jenna and Joey performed or did dance, they

1032
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:03,040
Speaker 2: played the one from last season that they had filmed,

1033
00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,600
Speaker 2: so like Joey's hair is like really like they look

1034
00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:07,920
Speaker 2: different because it's from a year ago. And I just

1035
00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:09,680
Speaker 2: thought that was kind of fun that they broke that

1036
00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,160
Speaker 2: out of the old hard drive and play that little club.

1037
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:15,719
Speaker 1: So there's a promo shoot that we all do before

1038
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:19,120
Speaker 1: we even start the show. That's the first day, like

1039
00:57:19,960 --> 00:57:22,600
Speaker 1: we've met our partners. We maybe rehearsed one or two

1040
00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:25,400
Speaker 1: days and everything, and then we do this promo shoot

1041
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:27,960
Speaker 1: where you're like all dulled up and pretending to do stuff,

1042
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:28,960
Speaker 1: the mirror ball and all that.

1043
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:32,320
Speaker 2: So it's first. I just think it's it's fun to

1044
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:36,720
Speaker 2: break out that old that that call so Elaine Hendricks

1045
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:40,040

00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:54,880
Speaker 1: worry about it.

1053
00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:58,200
Speaker 2: This was so rad This was Broadway. I mean, this

1054
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:01,840
Speaker 2: is a blown play. It was crazy. It was oh

Speaker 1: Just oh sorry, just to start it off, they go,

1060
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,080
Speaker 1: it's like you're going in for the audition, and it

1061
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:27,160
Speaker 1: was so the metaphor of her partner is Alan, and

00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:34,400
Speaker 1: Elaine and Emma going up for the role together, the

1064
00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:37,520
Speaker 1: oldest one there and then the young partner. I thought

1065
00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:38,080
Speaker 1: that was fun.

1066
00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:45,000

00:58:55,120 --> 00:59:00,480
Speaker 1: I knew when I watched that freestyle it gave me

1072
00:59:00,760 --> 00:59:03,880
Speaker 1: such joy. But I was like, she's I didn't I

1073
00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:05,920
Speaker 1: didn't feel she was gonna win at that point. That's

1074
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:10,000
Speaker 1: why that's when it clicked for me, like she's not

1075
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:12,080
Speaker 1: going to win this, but I was fun to watch

1076
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:13,200

01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:34,240
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm a dick because I was like, oh,

1109
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:08,240
Speaker 2: just funny. This is just such a great part of

1110
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:12,000
Speaker 2: the show to watch. And now our final dance more yep.

1111
01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 2: Our final dance Jordan and Ezra dancing to bow Down

1112
01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:21,720
Speaker 2: by Beyonce and motivation by Normani. Normani, who competed in

1113
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:24,040
Speaker 2: the past on Dancing with the Stars and who joins

1114
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:29,200
Speaker 2: Jordan for the dance. H great use of chainling fences

1115
01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:34,720
Speaker 2: in this dance so cool. I I loved it. I

1116
01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:38,080
Speaker 2: thought it was it was funny. When Normani joins her,

1117
01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:40,320
Speaker 2: I was like, is this okay? Is this allowed to

1118
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:42,560
Speaker 2: have the artist behind the song? But I'm like, it's

1119
01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:47,000
Speaker 2: a freestyle and everything's okay. There's definite.

1120
01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:50,600
Speaker 1: The last movement of the finaley.

1121
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:55,640
Speaker 2: I had the same thought when when Bindi came out.

1122
01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 2: I think it was during I can't remember. It was

1123
01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:01,280
Speaker 2: after dedication week. But Robert another dance where his sister

1124
01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:03,040
Speaker 2: came out and joined him, and I was like, has

1125
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:04,360
Speaker 2: this okay? How is this fair?

1126
01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:07,760
Speaker 1: I'm not saying a word. This is where I got

1127
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:11,320
Speaker 1: publicly attacked in the press. But his fans.

1128
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:15,920
Speaker 2: It was fun to see Normani out there. I'm a

1129
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:18,160
Speaker 2: big Normani fan personally, so that was really fun. And

1130
01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:21,760
Speaker 2: Jordan did a she did like a triple spin, which

1131
01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:24,920
Speaker 2: I think is like a seven twenty or something or

1132
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:27,560
Speaker 2: maybe I can't remember what the degrees are, but she

1133
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:30,000
Speaker 2: was crazy. I don't know how she's a gymnast, she's

1134
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,720
Speaker 2: prepared for this, but like, oh my god, it's just

1135
01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:37,280
Speaker 2: so much athleticism and physicality in this dance. It was incredible.

1136
01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:43,760
Speaker 1: Okay, so this is I feel like I was like

1137
01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 1: I couldn't make a decision this whole episode because every time,

1138
01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:51,040
Speaker 1: so I'm at this point, I'm like, you know, they're

1139
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:53,440
Speaker 1: not going to make it whatever the first two dances,

1140
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:56,680
Speaker 1: I watched this dance and all of a sudden, I'm like,

1141
01:02:56,880 --> 01:03:00,280
Speaker 1: oh my gosh. First of all, I love it, Ezra.

1142
01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:03,520
Speaker 1: I'm friends with Ezra. I loved watching him shine. He's

1143
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:07,600
Speaker 1: a brilliant choreographer. This is only his second year as

1144
01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:10,760
Speaker 1: a professional in Dancing with the Stars, and he was

1145
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 1: eliminated first last season. He got to go all the

1146
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:16,440
Speaker 1: way this time and create such an amazing freestyle, and

1147
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:18,800
Speaker 1: I was like, look, how brilliant he is. I thought

1148
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:21,760
Speaker 1: she was brilliant. And this is when I changed my

1149
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:29,160
Speaker 1: mind once again, and I stood up and I said, oh, yeah, yeah, guys,

1150
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:30,000
Speaker 1: take it.

1151
01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:35,680
Speaker 2: All home, take it home. It was so good.

1152
01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:36,960
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have been mad if they won.

1153
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:46,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, me either. But then, but then, and

1154
01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:49,320
Speaker 2: you know, Carriean agrees with you. She stands up and says,

1155
01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:52,920
Speaker 2: that's the best freestyle I have ever seen. Oh, in

1156
01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:55,080
Speaker 2: this entire we have.

1157
01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:58,720
Speaker 1: To make notes that throughout the show, Carrie Ann gets

1158
01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:02,160
Speaker 1: more fired up, and every time she puts her paddle

1159
01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:04,880
Speaker 1: up with her score, she's pointing at it and putting

1160
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:09,280
Speaker 1: into the camera like telling the audience this is what

1161
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:09,800
Speaker 1: it should be.

1162
01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:17,320
Speaker 2: Did you know that I did doing that? I'm like, well, yeah,

1163
01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:22,160
Speaker 2: so here we go. Well, after an incredible round of freestyles.

1164
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:27,120
Speaker 2: Uh did not disappoint at all, exceeded expectations. We now

1165
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:33,360
Speaker 2: have to get to the final elimination, themate elimination, the winner,

1166
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:36,600
Speaker 2: and my god, did they drag this out. They teased

1167
01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:39,960
Speaker 2: it so much. They went to commercial break two different times.

1168
01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:46,320
Speaker 2: It was crazy. So they go to break, we come.

1169
01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:51,480
Speaker 1: Back, they announced, Yeah, it goes so there's lights everywhere

1170
01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:55,320
Speaker 1: on everyone, and as you're announced eliminated, like fifth place,

1171
01:04:55,400 --> 01:04:59,360
Speaker 1: fourth place, it just goes dark on you. Yes, and

1172
01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:03,080
Speaker 1: having in there in person, it is palpitable, like you

1173
01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:04,400
Speaker 1: watch it and you're just like.

1174
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:07,880
Speaker 3: You feel it, but you feel it through the TV

1175
01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:17,160
Speaker 3: as well. Yes, So okay, fifth place, Elaine and.

1176
01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:19,800
Speaker 1: Alan, Elaine and Allen, it goes dark. Were you shocked?

1177
01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:27,080
Speaker 2: Now? I was not shocked at that point. I was

1178
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:32,320
Speaker 2: they'd done so well. But I was like, at this point,

1179
01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:36,480
Speaker 2: I think Elaine's gonna be the first to go.

1180
01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:37,600
Speaker 1: You did me?

1181
01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:39,400
Speaker 2: I thought it was either me, Elaine or George, even

1182
01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:40,440
Speaker 2: with that incredible freestyle.

1183
01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:44,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I want to know what place we would

1184
01:05:44,720 --> 01:05:48,080
Speaker 1: put them in. It's our final show. Yeah, when that

1185
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:52,600
Speaker 1: went out, I was like, okay, I really loved her

1186
01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:55,760
Speaker 1: and championed her, but I guess, yeah, someone's got to

1187
01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:57,920
Speaker 1: go first in this there we go.

1188
01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:01,080
Speaker 2: I yeah, I would. I would have put her that

1189
01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:05,760
Speaker 2: I was aligned with that. Fourth place, however, I would

1190
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:06,240
Speaker 2: have changed.

1191
01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:09,680
Speaker 1: Okay, so I'm gonna take you through my timeline real quick.

1192
01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:13,920
Speaker 1: I couldn't stop what was happening live and I couldn't stop.

1193
01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:17,440
Speaker 1: The meat loaf was done, the timer was going off.

1194
01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:21,920
Speaker 1: I freaked out. My brain couldn't think fast enough to

1195
01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:27,280
Speaker 1: say pause. The TV I ran and I could hear.

1196
01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:32,760
Speaker 1: I went back and watched it afterwards. Fourth place, Dylan

1197
01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:36,600
Speaker 1: and Daniella. I take the meat loaf out and I

1198
01:06:37,000 --> 01:06:41,160
Speaker 1: fumble it and it goes flying No, and it was

1199
01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:49,120
Speaker 1: slowm on my head, whoa, like there goes Dinner. It

1200
01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:55,400
Speaker 1: was like a football play. I saved it, like it

1201
01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:57,120
Speaker 1: didn't go everywhere.

1202
01:06:57,320 --> 01:06:58,120
Speaker 2: It was like it.

1203
01:07:00,080 --> 01:07:04,240
Speaker 1: Meatloaf was saved. Dylan and Daniel off though I was

1204
01:07:04,560 --> 01:07:09,400
Speaker 1: fourd he is America's champion. How could they put him

1205
01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 1: in fourth? He should have been third?

1206
01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:14,640
Speaker 2: I I agree, I agree completely. I'm sorry, but I

1207
01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:19,560
Speaker 2: would have put Jordan in fourth. Jordan and Ezra. That

1208
01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:23,000
Speaker 2: was crazy And at this point, I mean, you're looking

1209
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:26,960
Speaker 2: at the final like everyone's only a couple of points

1210
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:28,800
Speaker 2: away from each other in terms of the judges' scores.

1211
01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:33,080
Speaker 2: This is entirely audience voting at this point. I think

1212
01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:36,040
Speaker 2: that determining the winner is what I what I think.

1213
01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:38,200
Speaker 2: I don't know for sure, but that's what it seems

1214
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:38,440
Speaker 2: to me.

1215
01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:44,320
Speaker 1: Uh so, which surprised me because West Coast does not

1216
01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:49,000
Speaker 1: vote based on the performance. They have to vote just

1217
01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:51,280
Speaker 1: who they like best. They haven't seen it yet.

1218
01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:56,160
Speaker 2: It just anyway, it's crazy, it's it's, yes, a major

1219
01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:58,640
Speaker 2: flaw with this system, but this is how it is.

1220
01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:01,040
Speaker 2: I guess, you know, I'm curious. How did the voting

1221
01:08:01,080 --> 01:08:03,760
Speaker 2: work when it was on Disney Plus? Like, do you

1222
01:08:03,760 --> 01:08:07,160
Speaker 2: remember the year maybe it was? Was it not your

1223
01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:09,760
Speaker 2: was it your season? There was a no, maybe it

1224
01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:11,560
Speaker 2: was before. There's a couple of seasons where it was

1225
01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:12,960
Speaker 2: on Disney Plus and wasn't on ABC.

1226
01:08:13,160 --> 01:08:15,800
Speaker 1: You remember this? I didn't want to live during that time.

1227
01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:20,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, how the voting worked because like or was it

1228
01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:22,600
Speaker 2: the same? And they just went if you were on

1229
01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 2: these coasts, you just or West Coast you just couldn't

1230
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:26,920
Speaker 2: watch it and it wouldn't stream until a certain time.

1231
01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:31,639
Speaker 2: But I gotta I gotta look that up. Interesting anyway,

1232
01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:39,840
Speaker 2: third place Jordan, Chiles and Azrisosa. I would have I

1233
01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:41,640
Speaker 2: would have put I would have put Dylan there. We

1234
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:46,640
Speaker 2: would have swapped them. But also, you know, exciting for

1235
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:49,400
Speaker 2: Jordan to get so close, yeah to winning. She was

1236
01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:51,040
Speaker 2: saying that a mirror ball is a bigger deal to

1237
01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:53,479
Speaker 2: her than a gold medal, which blew my mind because

1238
01:08:54,320 --> 01:08:56,839
Speaker 2: that's the highest achievement you can get as an athlete.

1239
01:08:57,479 --> 01:08:59,880
Speaker 2: But she wanted this dancing trophy.

1240
01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:03,160
Speaker 1: On a uh and put in.

1241
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:06,960
Speaker 2: You know, just call it like it like I see it.

1242
01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:07,599
Speaker 1: Uh.

1243
01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:10,960
Speaker 2: And then before they got down. So now we have

1244
01:09:11,040 --> 01:09:13,720
Speaker 2: the last two, Alex and Robert, and they go to

1245
01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:20,439
Speaker 2: another commercial break, uh and uh we have to We're

1246
01:09:20,840 --> 01:09:22,920
Speaker 2: sitting there just I'm going, oh my god, who is

1247
01:09:22,920 --> 01:09:23,360
Speaker 2: it going to be?

1248
01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:29,000
Speaker 1: Were you looking they're like body language between the two couples.

1249
01:09:29,960 --> 01:09:33,479
Speaker 2: Yes, yes I was, And I was trying to figure

1250
01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:37,120
Speaker 2: out because they're they're staying on either side of Alfonso

1251
01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:40,559
Speaker 2: and Julianne. I think Julianne has the card with the winner,

1252
01:09:41,680 --> 01:09:46,879
Speaker 2: and I was trying to see if you. I interviewed

1253
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,680
Speaker 2: Clay Aiken a few months ago and he and I

1254
01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:52,160
Speaker 2: asked him about how did it feel when you learn

1255
01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,599
Speaker 2: you got second place to Ruben stuttered on American Idol

1256
01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:58,479
Speaker 2: and he said, when Seacrest opened the card, I looked

1257
01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:01,320
Speaker 2: over and I could see it, so I like three.

1258
01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:02,800
Speaker 2: He's like, if you go back and watch the tape,

1259
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:04,360
Speaker 2: you can see I start to smirk and then I

1260
01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:07,840
Speaker 2: like grab Ruben's shoulder or something like he knew, like

1261
01:10:08,120 --> 01:10:10,760
Speaker 2: you know, three seconds before it was announced, and I

1262
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:12,800
Speaker 2: was I was watching to see if like one of

1263
01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:15,040
Speaker 2: them could see. They both had their eyes closed.

1264
01:10:15,280 --> 01:10:19,000
Speaker 3: Right, everyone closes their eyes like yeah, And what a moment,

1265
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:21,679
Speaker 3: Like what a what a few seconds.

1266
01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:27,240
Speaker 1: I was shaking because I knew what was about to happen.

1267
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:30,599
Speaker 1: And all I kept doing is looking at Vowel's face,

1268
01:10:30,680 --> 01:10:33,600
Speaker 1: and I was like, he knew, don't you think he

1269
01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:35,320
Speaker 1: knew in his heart? He's like it's not gonna be

1270
01:10:35,600 --> 01:10:38,400
Speaker 1: It's not gonna be us, and he was just smiling

1271
01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:42,320
Speaker 1: like you know, like it's it's okay. Alex did too,

1272
01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:42,760
Speaker 1: didn't she?

1273
01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think they did.

1274
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:45,960
Speaker 1: We all know.

1275
01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:49,920
Speaker 2: And before they announced that we get to hear once

1276
01:10:49,960 --> 01:10:53,760
Speaker 2: again how many people voted one of and they said

1277
01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:56,400
Speaker 2: one of the closest finales of all time, the Gap

1278
01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:58,040
Speaker 2: between them was just a few.

1279
01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:01,479
Speaker 1: They say mere votes. They say that every season.

1280
01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:05,439
Speaker 2: I know, I like to think that it was. I

1281
01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:08,000
Speaker 2: voted ten times for Alex Earl, so I wanted to

1282
01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:12,559
Speaker 2: make sure my voice was heard. And then we find

1283
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:16,439
Speaker 2: out the winner is Robert Irwin and Whitney Carson. I

1284
01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:19,120
Speaker 2: heard someone on TikTok say this, the Irwin Empire has begun.

1285
01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:23,160
Speaker 2: He the second win. I mean, I don't know if

1286
01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:25,519
Speaker 2: this has been done before. There's two mirrorballs in a

1287
01:11:25,600 --> 01:11:29,280
Speaker 2: family and in a in a immediate family. That's like crazy.

1288
01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:37,920
Speaker 1: The Irwin Empire has begun. That is wild. I believe

1289
01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:40,559
Speaker 1: that is correct. I believe in ten years from now

1290
01:11:40,720 --> 01:11:43,960
Speaker 1: it's going to be like Kardashian who wow.

1291
