Speaker 1: Look man, oh I see you? Why why? Oh? And
Speaker 1: look over there? How is that culture? Yes? Goodness? Culture?
Speaker 1: And fuck? Can I say it is? So? The first
Speaker 1: word is fuck. It's the front runner of the title
Speaker 1: of up already. I mean, the first word that applies
Speaker 1: to a lot of stuff that's going on right now.
Speaker 1: I would say, top of mind. Can I say first thing?
Speaker 1: But we're gonna say j K rowling it's stunning, it
Speaker 1: is shocking. Let's just let's just uh start this off
Speaker 1: by saying there's a lot of peripheral culture that we
Speaker 1: have yet to address. That I think is things happening
Speaker 1: in the background that are huge, but that demands are
Speaker 1: our point of view. I mean, nothing demands our point
Speaker 1: of view, really, but like some of these things demand
Speaker 1: our point of view so we can move on. We
Speaker 1: have to, we have to confront these things head on
Speaker 1: so that we can they can be addressed and move on.
Speaker 1: For example, I mean, William Michelle of it all, William
Speaker 1: Michelle at all, the Lindsay Graham of it all, the
Speaker 1: j K rolling of it all. I mean, there's a
Speaker 1: lot to go through. Oh you mentioned Lady g I
Speaker 1: haven't even thought about her. I've thought about Lady G
Speaker 1: a lot. I've thought about Lady G a lot in
Speaker 1: the grand scheme. I'm saying, in the first minutes of
Speaker 1: our conversation, haven't even considered Lady G. And yet Lady
Speaker 1: G is waiting in the wings. I want to address
Speaker 1: something straight away. Can you see these bandages all over
Speaker 1: my arm? Yeah? What happened? I tried to ride a
Speaker 1: bike to like sort of like kind of free myself.
Speaker 1: I went over the handlebars of my bike. You have
Speaker 1: to understand. And our guest has said no, no, and
Speaker 1: I agree, she's sick. We have to bring her in.
Speaker 1: Let's just bring her in now. I don't want to wait.
Speaker 1: I don't want to wait. Pollicole called me Pollicle. Yeah,
Speaker 1: called Matt Pollicle. For our lives to be over. Our
Speaker 1: guest is actually a huge cyclist, not only not only
Speaker 1: side cling fan, but also we've not even realized this,
Speaker 1: but we were. We've had Michelle on the schedule, and
Speaker 1: yet we've done our whole Survivor dance and we haven't
Speaker 1: even spoken to Ms Collins. So now here we go,

Speaker 1: welcome into your ears, Michelle. Come wait wait, have you
Speaker 1: all of a sudden like I'm I'm lit up because
Speaker 1: I need to talk to you about so many things
Speaker 1: like you mentioned Lea Michelle. Michelle, what is your take
Speaker 1: on Lea Michelle, and obviously movies. So I've had one
Speaker 1: interaction with Lea Michelle. I didn't at least at one
Speaker 1: interaction with her. They pitched her to come on my
Speaker 1: show like a few weeks maybe three months ago, right
Speaker 1: before Quarantine, and I was like absolutely, like yes, I
Speaker 1: want her to come on the show so that I
Speaker 1: could And I never do that. I you know, I
Speaker 1: never talked to it about any of my guests, but
Speaker 1: I was just like, yes, like bringing her on so
Speaker 1: I can see at I r L because I've had
Speaker 1: some guests come on who have been very nasty. I'm
Speaker 1: sure you guys have to. But I was waiting at
Speaker 1: the wee Hoo parking garage, Matt, do you know where
Speaker 1: the celebrity target is. The celebrity target is that Libreya
Speaker 1: and Santa Monica were crazy. I got like nushi, you know,
Speaker 1: don't make it quick except for my live show, but
Speaker 1: I want the details of So basically I had ordered
Speaker 1: all the sushi because I am a pig person, and
Speaker 1: they gave me us I like to get their house sauce,
Speaker 1: which is basically says some oil with like a little
Speaker 1: pond zooster and for lass, and so they gave me
Speaker 1: I need giving a teen so like a tiny little
Speaker 1: cup of it, which they nodded the bag at the
Speaker 1: top like the bag was full of styrofoam. They put
Speaker 1: this little oil cup in the middle, and then they
Speaker 1: did like a balloon knot with the bag candles at
Speaker 1: the top, like there was like no nothing left. So
Speaker 1: I'm holding this like forty eight pound bag sushi and
Speaker 1: I'm waiting by the elevator between the BEVMO and the
Speaker 1: Jersey mics if you know you know where I'm talking about, which,
Speaker 1: by the way, that elevator is like has summoned demons before,
Speaker 1: because one time I got in it and a man
Speaker 1: with blue white out contact lenses came on and I
Speaker 1: was like and like one flip flop on and I
Speaker 1: was freaked, and he went, are you gonna cry? And
Speaker 1: he's gotta go. I'm also just braced myself for all
Speaker 1: the show it is involved. No, don't cry. Are you
Speaker 1: gonna cry? Anyway, So I'm sitting there and all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, this fucking oil cup falls out of the bag,
Speaker 1: spilled the elevator. Sorry, sorry, I keep it rupting. The
Speaker 1: door opens, No interrupting. The door opens and boost ups
Speaker 1: out and her boyfriend. I didn't even see that it
Speaker 1: was her. He can't. He walked out first, and then
Speaker 1: it was her going to Badmo by the way, and
Speaker 1: I said, I said, hey, hey, guys, watch out, someone
Speaker 1: spilled Oh my god, hey, I'm holding a bag of sitch.
Speaker 1: Was this after she had been pitched guest on your show? No? No,
Speaker 1: this was like five six years ago. This is this?
Speaker 1: So this she wasn't with her husband, Lanny Rice or
Speaker 1: whatever his name is. So what was her reaction to
Speaker 1: the I mean, while she didn't know that I spilled it,
Speaker 1: so it was actually nice, Hey, guys, like, watch out,
Speaker 1: somebody's spilled sauce. It's like everywhere, Like why would I
Speaker 1: know it's sauce? I guess I gave myself away. So
Speaker 1: what did she do? Someone smill slauces? What the podcast
Speaker 1: should be called? So much? Someone from Crazy Rocking. I'm
Speaker 1: like crying out anyway, So I said it, and she went, oh,
Speaker 1: like to me, like really rolled her eyes. I was
Speaker 1: in a similar action I had. Instead of going oh,
Speaker 1: thanks or you or whatever, like a normal sauce reaction,
Speaker 1: she was like like as though I even like attempted
Speaker 1: to talk to her. I didn't even know it was
Speaker 1: her other than her hug, which is like Michael's Halloween display,
Speaker 1: you know. And then boyfriend was cute, it was nice
Speaker 1: and smiling and went, oh thanks, And I was like,
Speaker 1: is she still with him? No, she got rid of him.
Speaker 1: And then actually, I have another friend who demmed me that.
Speaker 1: It was like, oh, is this the guy? And I
Speaker 1: can pull up who it was. They've broken up, and
Speaker 1: I bet he has some good stories. You should have
Speaker 1: him on the shop. Oh my god, we should have
Speaker 1: him just for Liam Michell t Yeah, oh my god.
Speaker 1: We should tell everyone that builds sauce someone spilled sauce,
Speaker 1: which everyone that doesn't know. Liam Michelle has been called
Speaker 1: up by dozens of cast members of Glee for her
Speaker 1: sort of like very rude, dismissive, nearly abusive behavior of
Speaker 1: the of the I think the background actors. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: would say creating a toxic atmosphere, but specifically racist. I
Speaker 1: mean the whole ship in her wigs thing is like
Speaker 1: like on like, yeah, that's like specific to a black woman.
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people who have been um
Speaker 1: who have been saying, like, no, she's not racist, she
Speaker 1: was horrible like her Heather Morris wrote like she's she's
Speaker 1: rancid to everyone, Like it's almost like she's color blind
Speaker 1: because she's just nasty to everyone. But I feel like
Speaker 1: you're absolutely right, Like if you say something like shit
Speaker 1: in your wig, that right there, you can be rancid
Speaker 1: plus racist. Yeah, and you both you know, absolutely preclude
Speaker 1: you from being racist. But being rancid does not mean
Speaker 1: you can't be racist. Actually, real culture number fifty does
Speaker 1: not mean. So what then? So what's your take on
Speaker 1: this whole thing? Michelle? We want to know? Here's my take.
Speaker 1: I think it has been the who me um. It
Speaker 1: has been a known thing that she is rock ten
Speaker 1: like a rotted soul, and I am actually shocked that
Speaker 1: it's taken so long for people to even kind of
Speaker 1: like out here for it because she's so horrible. I
Speaker 1: got texts from people I haven't talked to in Angels
Speaker 1: who like famous people who I don't know well who
Speaker 1: I love. I'm I've changed famous people who I don't
Speaker 1: know who I love who I love because I haven't
Speaker 1: laughed in so long. I feel like I'm like on thing.
Speaker 1: The first time I'm laughing genuinely in like two weeks.
Speaker 1: So so people have reached out to you and been like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, thank god things about her have come
Speaker 1: out because I I can't believe the things that happened
Speaker 1: happened to me with her, Like legit, without naming this person,
Speaker 1: someone said one day We're gonna have a fireside chat
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna tell you my stories and you're gonna
Speaker 1: ship and I was like, I and he lives in
Speaker 1: l and I was like, I will literally fly to
Speaker 1: Los Angeles for that alone. Like that to me is
Speaker 1: so exciting. I'm sure she's what do you classify that as?
Speaker 1: Just being like a fucking like, how does someone become
Speaker 1: that mean? I think that she is just like one
Speaker 1: of those Well. I was watching her install Alive with
Speaker 1: um Amba Riley and she was saying to someone. She
Speaker 1: was like, I'm not going to sit here and say
Speaker 1: that Leah Michelle is racist. I'm not going to say
Speaker 1: that because I have my experience with her whatever. But
Speaker 1: I can't say that flat out here in the install Live.
Speaker 1: What I can say is that as a result of
Speaker 1: this conversation, a lot of people have been d me
Speaker 1: saying that they have felt abuse by the hands of
Speaker 1: the white girl stars of whatever show they were working
Speaker 1: background on, which is obviously not surprising. Like these girls
Speaker 1: like and these people who staring shows, they really think
Speaker 1: that everyone works for them, um, which is honestly, If
Speaker 1: anything else, it's a good reminder that that is an
Speaker 1: insane thing to think you happen to be lucky to
Speaker 1: be the person that is a star of that show.
Speaker 1: It does not mean you're talented, period. It also does
Speaker 1: not mean that you were talented with more talented than
Speaker 1: everyone else that's working there. But you want to know
Speaker 1: what's so that the fun little whip saw to all
Speaker 1: this is is that I remember distinctly when Glee first
Speaker 1: came out, Lea Michelle was doing all this press and
Speaker 1: doing all these interviews where she the this sort of
Speaker 1: repeated line was that like, um, she was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I was struggling a lot um when I first came
Speaker 1: out to Hollywood. Everyone said I was too ethnic, Um,
Speaker 1: you know I. Which isn't that so funny that she
Speaker 1: was like building up this oppression narrative that she was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm Jewish, and um, I'm too ethnic for Holly.
Speaker 1: It's like whoa whoa whoa wa, whoa whoa whoa Every
Speaker 1: Harvard application essay when I marched for the living, and
Speaker 1: by where I'm Jewish, so I can make that joke.
Speaker 1: I when I marched for the living and I thought
Speaker 1: of all of those who had died, I knew that
Speaker 1: I was taking you know that ship. She is. Listen,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say she's I feel bad now that I
Speaker 1: called her a Halloween display. You know, Listen, she's talented,
Speaker 1: she's she's really way. By the way, the name of
Speaker 1: the guy she was with, Matt, Matt Pets. That was
Speaker 1: the name of the guy at the Skills. That's a
Speaker 1: disgusting name. First, we have to say it right away.
Speaker 1: Matt Pets a misfire right there. What are you gonna
Speaker 1: be Lea Pets, Leo Pett might be paid. It's p
Speaker 1: A E t z. Girls, It's Pets for us. Did
Speaker 1: you see the that's our us. Did you see the
Speaker 1: Daily Mail headline today though which I found her love
Speaker 1: love those love those messy horrors that the Daily Mail.
Speaker 1: They are so fucking messy and I and they have
Speaker 1: sucked me over in my time, and I still every day.
Speaker 1: But but they said, they said, Leah Michelle has allegedly
Speaker 1: had a real wake up call and wants to handle
Speaker 1: things responsibly amid backlash over her past onset behavior thoughts, honestly,
Speaker 1: what can she do at this point? She what she
Speaker 1: should do is she should just relax, have her baby,
Speaker 1: and like then focus on things she can do after
Speaker 1: the fact. Like like, but right now she's six months pregnant,
Speaker 1: and I and that's the only thing that makes me
Speaker 1: worried about the whole situation is like, oh, there's like
Speaker 1: a child that's gonna like I have to deal with
Speaker 1: all the stress that she's experienced right now. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: she's she's like, she's wealthy. It's fine that And I'm
Speaker 1: saying she should have the baby handed off to whatever
Speaker 1: care she can pay for. And then, um, I I
Speaker 1: feel like I can only map this onto like athrown
Speaker 1: Heigel's career, maybe like like just having like such a
Speaker 1: flashpoint of like someone being like like someone reputably being
Speaker 1: a bad person or whatever, unprofessional or whatever it is
Speaker 1: has not been canceled. I mean, she's old, I think so.
Speaker 1: I think the context, it makes sense she was fully
Speaker 1: raging in her own time. But here's the thing is,
Speaker 1: it's like imagine being known as a nightmare in that time,
Speaker 1: like what you would have been like, now, yeah, I
Speaker 1: do love me some fade down away, but I know
Speaker 1: that she definitely has ruined lives and at least I mean, listen,
Speaker 1: what else is Lea Michelle Donne after no one wanted
Speaker 1: to There was that one show, The Mayor. It was
Speaker 1: like it was like an ABC show where it was
Speaker 1: about this, I think I'm gonna mess up the premise,
Speaker 1: this guy who runs for mayor or something. It was
Speaker 1: a young black guy who like ran for mayor and
Speaker 1: gets elected, and I think he wasn't taking it seriously.
Speaker 1: It was just like whatever, like a stunt, and he
Speaker 1: gets elected mayor and she becomes like his chief staff. Yes,
Speaker 1: I remember these billboards. I did not watch all the
Speaker 1: billboards were like the guy who becomes the mayor front
Speaker 1: and then Leah Michelle in the back like it's arms crossed,
Speaker 1: like I'm gonna be the serious one, like it's so funny,
Speaker 1: the sitcom thing of like the billboard and the side
Speaker 1: characters in the back, like imagine like the fourth person
Speaker 1: in the billboard like standing back, like and you know,
Speaker 1: I serve a purpose in the show. That's who I
Speaker 1: auditioned for. And I have never gotten cast in my
Speaker 1: life to be the fourth person ever, Um, do you
Speaker 1: think I've never been cast? Yes, that's so sad. But
Speaker 1: we're talented and we're attractive. Can you can you imagine
Speaker 1: how much sauce the background doctors on The Mayor have
Speaker 1: to spell? We need them all on. Honestly, we're coming
Speaker 1: up on our two hundred episode Episodes two hundred through
Speaker 1: three hundred need to be all Mayor background actors. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: we just need to find out what happened on the Mayor?
Speaker 1: Can you just never not be the dumbest I love
Speaker 1: you so much. I truly You're the only thing that
Speaker 1: make me laugh. And that's our show. That's a great time,
Speaker 1: you know what, you know what? I genuinely love though.
Speaker 1: I love hearing tea about like old sitcoms, Like I
Speaker 1: had a friend that was a writer on desper Housewives,
Speaker 1: and he'll tell me about like ways the Felicity half
Speaker 1: enacted ways that acted, and it's just so funny to
Speaker 1: hear that it was not at all what we thought,
Speaker 1: Like Terry Hatcher was not necessarily the nightmare on the show,
Speaker 1: like Hidden Felicity was the nightmare on that show because
Speaker 1: she was like to the writers or like you know,
Speaker 1: Nicholas Sheridan was like actually a film monster. But that
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that more that more sit slap her across
Speaker 1: the face because he did like he imagine that. I
Speaker 1: honestly though the whole Glee thing one of the darkest
Speaker 1: cast we've ever heard of, so many tragedies all intersecting
Speaker 1: on one days overdoses. Um, if I was on that show,
Speaker 1: I would be quaking right now, like like, yeah, well
Speaker 1: and has a good career. Little sweet Chris cole for
Speaker 1: who we love so much, they must have someone should
Speaker 1: write a Glee book. That book would be purchased someone.
Speaker 1: I mean, what we need is for Chris Colefort to
Speaker 1: wry to tell all about the book, because I say,
Speaker 1: this would love not doing too much else. And I
Speaker 1: think he's so sweet, but I mean, it's a sweetheart,
Speaker 1: but like wants to write, and I think he came
Speaker 1: up with that he wrote that film Struck by Lightning,
Speaker 1: And so if he wants to write, what I want
Speaker 1: to hear is the tell all of what happened on
Speaker 1: the Glee set. Did you think that name of what
Speaker 1: he wrote? He wrote that film? Uh? That car he wrote? Um?
Speaker 1: Same literally film your order will be ready in a second. Sir,
Speaker 1: have you heard that? You've seen that? Wait, I'm literally
Speaker 1: typing into a little Chris cole for Struck by Lightning.
Speaker 1: Struck by Lightning. Here it is two thousand twelve. It
Speaker 1: came out. I'm gonna I'm gonna read about it to you.
Speaker 1: It was. It's an American coming of age comedy drama
Speaker 1: films directed by Brian Dannallee, the famous director, and written
Speaker 1: by and starring Chris cole For. It had its world
Speaker 1: premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival on April's such a sweetheart?
Speaker 1: Do you know? Do you know him? I've never met
Speaker 1: do a little bit. He's really really sweet. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: why I'm like, anything bad about him? You should write
Speaker 1: a book. He should write a book. But I'm saying
Speaker 1: as though I want to hear the t because also
Speaker 1: I have genuine curiosities about what this situation is between
Speaker 1: Leah Michelle and Jonathan Groff, whether or not they're actually
Speaker 1: really can you even imagine? And he's a sweet he's lovely, Jonathan.
Speaker 1: Have you meant before I we're not we're not friends?
Speaker 1: Is this my Mike to uh, we're not? But but
Speaker 1: I've I've interacted with him and he's very very sweet.
Speaker 1: But you never know, you know, maybe she got her
Speaker 1: eagle talents in him, took off at a young age.
Speaker 1: You know, you just don't know, right, so late as
Speaker 1: a nightmare. Wait what else? Um, we were talking about
Speaker 1: Joanna Kathleen. Um, there's Joanna Kathleen. There's there's But Michelle
Speaker 1: has said that she famously has never She's probably never
Speaker 1: read Harry. I saw that tweet that you've probably we're
Speaker 1: proud of We're proud of you. Um, I've never. I
Speaker 1: tried to read the first one years and years ago
Speaker 1: someone gave me their paperback. UM, I could not crack
Speaker 1: into that book. I just was like, I don't care
Speaker 1: about this, and now I win, and you know win.
Speaker 1: I cared so much, bone cared, sorry truly, but but
Speaker 1: my theory now is that and this was even before
Speaker 1: she fully just was guns blazing as a transphobic, but
Speaker 1: like um, as a transphobic, but like UM, the books,
Speaker 1: if you read them in your adulthood, you have to
Speaker 1: read those books within a certain window of your life
Speaker 1: of your development. Is like an adolescent because now if
Speaker 1: you read them, if you read them as an adult,
Speaker 1: like it loses something I don't know. Well, well, they're
Speaker 1: not written for us, and what one thing is you'll
Speaker 1: you'll not just be like as wrapped up in it
Speaker 1: at all. But I mean the goblins at Grencotts Bank,
Speaker 1: people say they're anti Semitic, literally hook nosed goblins that
Speaker 1: like a like, what do they do? She really goes
Speaker 1: for it. They're they're bankers. They're just they're bankers, and
Speaker 1: they're kind of just like if you if you really
Speaker 1: want to look into this, they are caricatures of like
Speaker 1: anti Semitic Jewish stereotypes. Hell, first of all, I thought
Speaker 1: you were joking when you said bankers. I was like, hey, guys,
Speaker 1: that's not funny. No, you can't say that. Hey, I
Speaker 1: can't believe that they're literal hook nosed bankers. That's a hitler.
Speaker 1: I mean, I almost want to show you a picture.
Speaker 1: But they have the theme park rides and Universal studios
Speaker 1: and if you do, I know, do they they I
Speaker 1: think I know what they look like. Send me a
Speaker 1: picture of it. Do you guys know that Roll Doll
Speaker 1: is a very famous anti Semite and I never I
Speaker 1: never knew it until I was in UM. I love
Speaker 1: telling the story. I was in Budapest again that's our
Speaker 1: time I was, I really was. I was Bodapes and
Speaker 1: there was one English bookstore. I bought the auto boosts
Speaker 1: of roll Doll, thinking I'm so fucking smart whatever. I
Speaker 1: was nineteen. I started reading it and there was this
Speaker 1: story you can look it up on Wikipedia, where it's
Speaker 1: like this couple, this woman has lost a lot of
Speaker 1: her babies and she's pregnant again. She goes to the
Speaker 1: hospital to deliver and the father is like push, honey, push,
Speaker 1: and she's like, oh, I just don't. I just want
Speaker 1: to make sure the baby's gonna be fine. And it's
Speaker 1: like stressful and you're like, oh, we have the baby
Speaker 1: like you do it. And the baby is born and
Speaker 1: the doctor comes in and she goes, well, doctor, well,
Speaker 1: how she goes how is he? Is he okay? And
Speaker 1: the doctor goes, yes, yes, he's going to grow up
Speaker 1: to be very very strong and very powerful. Mr. And
Speaker 1: Mrs Hitler, Yes, that is the whole story. And I
Speaker 1: was like huh and then I was like shaking, and
Speaker 1: then I went and googled it and he's an anti
Speaker 1: fucking Semi James and the giant anti semites. Yes, what
Speaker 1: do we do the giant juice? What do we do about? Like?
Speaker 1: And also like, wait, what is what is your nohow
Speaker 1: about Walt Disney? Well why was he? Well? You know
Speaker 1: what's funny you bring that up? Actually because I was
Speaker 1: gonna almost do my You don't, I don't think so
Speaker 1: honey about Disney. That's so funny because because and I'll
Speaker 1: make it quick, because I'm talking a lot, um, this

Speaker 1: But anyway, keep going the bike. I want to ask
Speaker 1: you about that. And well, well we'll talk about the
Speaker 1: bike next. I'll make it very quick. Um. I have
Speaker 1: often said that I was never a Disney person growing up.
Speaker 1: I like would watch here and there, you know, Goofy
Speaker 1: because I was Goofy obviously, but like I would watch
Speaker 1: some of that, but I never got into it, and
Speaker 1: I liken it. I say that Disney is like the
Speaker 1: al right Christian, like I don't want to say, all right,
Speaker 1: but Disney is like super Christian, super American, devoid of
Speaker 1: any humor, and that Looney Tunes is like a Jewish paradise,
Speaker 1: like Jewish, and just more I don't want to say
Speaker 1: to two, it's just more like ethnic like Looney Tunes
Speaker 1: just incorporates like people who have problems. It's like Seinfeld
Speaker 1: animated basically for me. And and I just wanted to
Speaker 1: just say that I actually hate Disney with Walt Disney
Speaker 1: and anti Semite would not shock me. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Do you know about this? Um, I haven't really ever
Speaker 1: looked into it. There are but Disney wasn't an and
Speaker 1: the Song of the South, the song of the song
Speaker 1: wild it's so racist when you go on Slash Mountain.
Speaker 1: This was like years ago. I went on Splash Mountain.
Speaker 1: Well you know, you know that I went to Disney
Speaker 1: very very quick. Story when I was this hilarious or
Speaker 1: when I was in the view l oh my god,
Speaker 1: well you guys, would I wish no? I sent me
Speaker 1: because I knew that I had like four days left
Speaker 1: until like the papers were coming to cancel me. So
Speaker 1: I said, I want to get my v I p

Speaker 1: the rod I wish we had each other. I would
Speaker 1: have been one with you. Oh my god, I love
Speaker 1: It would have been so fun. Oh my god. Anyway,
Speaker 1: the Song of the South is the most racist Flash Mountain.
Speaker 1: Those bears are caricatures. It's crazy. I'm like, am I
Speaker 1: the only jungle cruise with the natives? I'm like, am
Speaker 1: I fucking crazy? Recently I went on Jungle Cruise with
Speaker 1: the Mounch people, and addressing was there and we were not.
Speaker 1: We could not believe that it had not been updated.
Speaker 1: The Jungle Cruise is another level. The natives that come
Speaker 1: out of the woods that are like trying to kill you.
Speaker 1: It's really crazy. Okay, So we have a note from
Speaker 1: our our producer here that says Walt Disney hired a
Speaker 1: Nazi scientist to be the chief scientific consultant to Walt
Speaker 1: Disney Productions. There that big shock Disney is. I'm telling
Speaker 1: you point to one fund and by the way, no offense.
Speaker 1: I know that. I'm really listen. If you like Disney,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry your childhood had problems. You know, we all
Speaker 1: have issues. I'm no, I'm I'm fully ready to receive
Speaker 1: this because I am a Disney Are you a major
Speaker 1: Disney person? Michelle, It's true, It's true. I go. I'll
Speaker 1: say that I am too. I'm on this, I'm on
Speaker 1: the spectrum. We go to Disney. I mean we want
Speaker 1: to learn. Because you want to learn to Disney. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you went too, so don't be all high. And because
Speaker 1: you beg your corporate company for your plum tickets. You
Speaker 1: were a participant in Disney. You were listen because I
Speaker 1: wanted to be accepted by the Nazi scientists. Okay, look,
Speaker 1: I know I funked up. There's just something about Disney
Speaker 1: that just never fully I never felt safe there. Do
Speaker 1: you know that? Can I say one other thing? Plea
Speaker 1: My best friend in high school, Jessica Wie shout out
Speaker 1: um love her. She worked at Disney one summer and
Speaker 1: I went to visit her and she took me to
Speaker 1: the underground. I've been underground at Disney, So what is
Speaker 1: it like? Is it Donald blowing Aladdin? It's crazy. It's
Speaker 1: black lights, like lots of Vinyl. Colm, that's my new podcast,
Speaker 1: Flight Spinal com. No, it's like, literally you it's more fine.
Speaker 1: You see like Mickey like holding his head and smoking.
Speaker 1: It's like it's symptoms. It just feels off literally that
Speaker 1: I don't know. And there's miles and miles of tunnel
Speaker 1: of people that are just like making two little money
Speaker 1: to do what they do. Everyone is so miserable. But
Speaker 1: I remember, I remember the door that I went into.
Speaker 1: Nobody stopped me. She was like, you have to look
Speaker 1: keep along because I could get fired, because you know
Speaker 1: they're so anal about I smile so big. Well, I
Speaker 1: look like I look like goofy. Literally, I think they
Speaker 1: were just like, oh, Goofy's off the clock. Like I
Speaker 1: had overalls on and like goof off the clock, the goofy.
Speaker 1: I've seen Michelle rele To really recently. I saw her
Speaker 1: in December when you came to Sael and it was
Speaker 1: a beautiful moment getting to witness you meeting Studie Green
Speaker 1: because you had were both. It was just it was
Speaker 1: a total that makes a lot of sense to me.
Speaker 1: It was a wonderful moment. She's the best. Fun was
Speaker 1: a fun night. I'm at Ariel was so nice an Ariel,
Speaker 1: and then you also, Okay, so my guests that night
Speaker 1: were it was it was the Jailer show, um and um.
Speaker 1: I I had um Oscar and Mo and Adam from
Speaker 1: Poppy Juice and they were my guests. And then you
Speaker 1: sat at our table at the after party and you
Speaker 1: fully had them in the palm of your hand. It
Speaker 1: was a beautiful thing to see, like just like you
Speaker 1: talking to like these three like Bushwick bedsty like brown
Speaker 1: nightlife icons, queer night life icons, and you like talking
Speaker 1: their ears off and they were wrapped and they were obsessed,
Speaker 1: and it was it was I mean, but it was
Speaker 1: just like, oh yeah, this this is the this is
Speaker 1: the the effect that Michelle has on people like you.
Speaker 1: Just it was. It was wonderful. It was wonderful. It
Speaker 1: makes me feel um, you know, because I don't live
Speaker 1: in Bushwick, and I know if I did, I don't
Speaker 1: know what i'd be like. I don't know what i'd
Speaker 1: be like. I would I don't know Um, but it's different.
Speaker 1: I just love funny people, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: There were so funny they were I want to see
Speaker 1: them again, like I would love the problem is is
Speaker 1: that I feel now like I'm the fate done away
Speaker 1: to their like, um, Christina, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: Where I'm they're like babies, you know, and I'm like, Chris,
Speaker 1: I'm not a old lady. By the way, Dania Rodcliffe
Speaker 1: a Jew, wouldn't he be like, hey, TK, the goblins?
Speaker 1: Can we talk about the goblins? I think that some
Speaker 1: some people from the Harry Potter universe will speak out
Speaker 1: because you can't just let this continue. Katie the Young,
Speaker 1: the actress who played Chow Chang, like tweeted. I mean
Speaker 1: she she did one of those like, um fake out
Speaker 1: tweet threads like do you guys want to know my
Speaker 1: thoughts about playing Cho Chang? Here goes threat and then
Speaker 1: it's donation link, which is which is great. Um, but
Speaker 1: but I feel like there's this like subtext to like
Speaker 1: all the people who like, we're in the movies or
Speaker 1: were involved with or have worked with j K in
Speaker 1: any capacity, they are like, yeah, I don't know, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm not I don't. I don't want to
Speaker 1: make assumptions about miss Joanne, but it's just it's so crazy.
Speaker 1: It's so crazy, and she should have just stopped touching
Speaker 1: that franchise after the books in the movies came out
Speaker 1: and not written these two terrible movies fantastic beast, let's
Speaker 1: just say bad movies. It's just crazy that like she
Speaker 1: could have literally she had she had two choices. She
Speaker 1: had one choice, which was speak your mind. What she
Speaker 1: did she she took that avenue, and she also could
Speaker 1: have just shut her mouth and remained one of the
Speaker 1: most beloved authors of all time. Like the fact that
Speaker 1: we are in this moment right now and she said,
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm actually gonna double down on my
Speaker 1: transphobic beliefs now. Now she's done forever. There's no there's
Speaker 1: no excuse. Can I ask an honest question, why pick
Speaker 1: the trans community, which is like she's got there, she's obsessed,
Speaker 1: but it's not just her, Like you know, freckyture Vas
Speaker 1: has come for them a lot of things. People feel
Speaker 1: very emboldened to pick on these people who are literally
Speaker 1: like talking about the human food chain and privilege and
Speaker 1: everything else. Morans, they're the most disenfranchised people. They're people.
Speaker 1: They are not coming for your money, they're not coming
Speaker 1: for your work. They're not bothering you in any way
Speaker 1: except for maybe needing as a celebrity, your help and
Speaker 1: your empowerment to help them blend in with society as
Speaker 1: human beings, which is all they're asking for. Why would
Speaker 1: you pick this group too and to come after right now?
Speaker 1: I literally I'm like, it's crazy. It's because it's the
Speaker 1: last vestige of that sort of racist, sexist, homophobic humor.
Speaker 1: It's the it's because I think like that was such
Speaker 1: a huge part of what comedy was all throughout the
Speaker 1: nineties and all throughout the like oughts when these people
Speaker 1: were huge, they did make like inappropriate quote unquote um
Speaker 1: comedy out of race, um, gender HOMOPHOBI. Yeah, that was
Speaker 1: just the way that they made money. Honestly, it's the
Speaker 1: way that they built their comedy careers. And now that
Speaker 1: we're saying this is over because obviously trans people are
Speaker 1: like the bottom of everyone's list, or it has pastorically
Speaker 1: been that we've like reached out to that community. That's
Speaker 1: the last vestige for these male comedians and these comedians
Speaker 1: that are kind of old fashioned and came up at
Speaker 1: that time. These are the last people they can still
Speaker 1: pick on while people aren't completely outraged about it. That's
Speaker 1: what I think. It's easy for them. Yeah, and for
Speaker 1: her to have written this series of books that are
Speaker 1: like completely moralizing and completely I mean I mean, I
Speaker 1: mean she's like presenting her set of values and that's
Speaker 1: and people liked it. Um, But it's she she has
Speaker 1: conferred upon herself as false sense of like, well, I
Speaker 1: have the right point of view on this, in my
Speaker 1: opinion is actually the right one, and this is her.
Speaker 1: But yeah, this fixation on the trans community so interesting.
Speaker 1: Remember that two weeks ago when she tweeted that crazy
Speaker 1: thing and it had that addendum that she like accidentally
Speaker 1: pasted this like about this Michelle. It was like she
Speaker 1: was like, so basically she's been doing this thing on
Speaker 1: her Twitter where she's written a new book or told
Speaker 1: the new story called the Ichabog, and it's about a bug,
Speaker 1: but she didn't physically describe the bug. Instead, she was
Speaker 1: allowing her young fans to draw pictures of the bug,
Speaker 1: what they think the ichabag looks like, and send it
Speaker 1: into her so that she can be like this ichabag
Speaker 1: is amazing, wonderful job. I love how it looks wise
Speaker 1: and it's face like it's stupid shit, but like that's
Speaker 1: what she's been doing. So in one of the submissions
Speaker 1: that she received, she literally bone like could you find
Speaker 1: this because it's it's literally insane. But it was like
Speaker 1: it was like this ichabog is an amazing creature. And
Speaker 1: then it was like this copy pasted thing about how
Speaker 1: trans people aren't like actually people. It it was so bizarre,
Speaker 1: and then she finished the post and I love that
Speaker 1: it's got blue feet, thank you. Like it was really weird.
Speaker 1: I think she has her She apologized for it. I
Speaker 1: think she deleted, but let me. I think I found
Speaker 1: So it's um a wicked bogue. You know what she
Speaker 1: keeps saying is she keeps saying these things like, you know,
Speaker 1: being a woman shaped my life. And I think she
Speaker 1: is one of those people who believes that men people
Speaker 1: who are born men who discover their trans women throughout
Speaker 1: their lifetime. I think she takes offense to that. I
Speaker 1: think that she feels attacked that a man can quote
Speaker 1: unquote become a woman or claim womanhood. I think this
Speaker 1: is something that she is really sensitive to. For whatever
Speaker 1: reason and feels the need to keep speaking about It's
Speaker 1: just like, why does that have any impact? It's womanhood,
Speaker 1: It's their separate journey. Is like, I'm you know, we
Speaker 1: I'm a woman. I've been through a lot of ship
Speaker 1: It's like, I've never once in my life thought to myself, Wow,
Speaker 1: that trans woman has no idea what I've ever like.
Speaker 1: I just don't get that. Okay, let mela, this is it.
Speaker 1: I haven't Okay, So drawing of the ichabog that this
Speaker 1: kid wrote and she said, I love this truly fabulous
Speaker 1: ichabog with its bat ears, mismashed eyes and terrifying bloodstained
Speaker 1: teeth in court, Wolf claimed the Facebook post in which
Speaker 1: she said she wanted to quote fuck up some turfs
Speaker 1: was just bravado. So that was the tweet with the
Speaker 1: picture of an ichabox. So she's so she quote she
Speaker 1: pulled us from some report about this woman ter a Wolf.
Speaker 1: Um I believe, um, I believe a trans woman who
Speaker 1: wanted to attack who was charged for assaulting a radical
Speaker 1: feminist slash turf. I think that's I think to the
Speaker 1: background on this, I mean, And then she said sorry
Speaker 1: about the random and totally unconnected sentence that made its
Speaker 1: way in there. I accidentally pasted in part of a
Speaker 1: very unichabogi ish message I just received, just like such
Speaker 1: a joke. It's like she's talking about the Icha bug
Speaker 1: at the same time as she clearly had copy pasted
Speaker 1: a turf like talking point from an article and put
Speaker 1: it in her damn icha bog message. But my theory
Speaker 1: is that she was probably so used to being so
Speaker 1: celebrated her entire professional life, and then I think the
Speaker 1: first time she ever tweeted about trans people a few
Speaker 1: years ago, people started to come after her and call
Speaker 1: her a turf, and she probably felt very, very victimized
Speaker 1: by that, and then has been obsessing over trying to
Speaker 1: justify her point of view. I think that, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's my dumb assessment anyway. You know, listen, I haven't
Speaker 1: watched the movie Small Time Crooks. I have, have you?
Speaker 1: Oh no, I've seen it many times and then until
Speaker 1: until we canceled Woody and it hurt because it's one
Speaker 1: of my favorite movies. But I haven't watched it since,
Speaker 1: and I just feel like, you know what, I'm sorry
Speaker 1: to the Harry Potter community, but like, eventually you just
Speaker 1: have to say this, it's something. She's gonna be crying.
Speaker 1: She'll crying into her money mattress. She'll be fine. But
Speaker 1: it's like, you just I can't wholeheartedly support someone who
Speaker 1: I know is a piece of ship like that. I can't.
Speaker 1: And the fact of the matter is I don't even
Speaker 1: think she is going to be crying because she's truly
Speaker 1: digging her heels in. And then she said something like
Speaker 1: someone called her a turf, and she said feminazi turf bitch,
Speaker 1: which it's all the same, the way that they change,
Speaker 1: the way that they talked down to women. It's like
Speaker 1: no things change, but women hating as eternal or whatever.
Speaker 1: She said, like this is how they hate women. It's
Speaker 1: like she genuinely believes that us calling her a turf
Speaker 1: is some you know, just misogynists term. I genuinely think
Speaker 1: that she just doesn't understand what it is. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: the irony is her her being transphobic is its own
Speaker 1: form of hating of hating women, you know. It's of course,
Speaker 1: also I don't like the name turf. It just sounds
Speaker 1: kind of dumb. Like when I first heard it, I
Speaker 1: was like turf. I had to google it. I didn't
Speaker 1: know what it was. It's close to nerf, It's close
Speaker 1: to all this dumb ship. It's like it's astro. Turf
Speaker 1: is like innocuous nothing, it's like faith off. I literally
Speaker 1: did not know what it meant. I was like for
Speaker 1: people who don't know, who may not know, it is
Speaker 1: trans exclusionary, radical feminist. It's people who believe that they're
Speaker 1: feminist and supporting women who do not include trans women
Speaker 1: in that and who are transphobic. That's that's really what's
Speaker 1: at the heart of Turf. And I wish we could
Speaker 1: have to say it at all either because it is ugly.
Speaker 1: It's ugly, you Turf. I think it's funny. How dare
Speaker 1: your turf? Get Turf. I'm putting a sign on my
Speaker 1: front door that says, no Tur's allud baby, that's my podcast.
Speaker 1: I love someone. Skilled sauces really some sauce. I just
Speaker 1: can't believe that. Honestly, after you after well, it was
Speaker 1: it was and it was you that spilt the sauce.
Speaker 1: We should say it was that the that the doors
Speaker 1: opened to the elevator and it was Leah Michelle that
Speaker 1: walked in and you, Michelle, come on, had to look
Speaker 1: up into her face and say, that's Liah Michelle say
Speaker 1: to her, and he was, but like a hawking a
Speaker 1: Lugi Scott. She literally was like do not Like the
Speaker 1: energy was psycho and it went so quickly, like the
Speaker 1: doors open. It's not like I was like staring at
Speaker 1: her from across the room. Like she literally walked out.
Speaker 1: She almost had this like armor up, probably because she
Speaker 1: thought she was so famous, you know that if God
Speaker 1: from anyone spoke to her, like, but this guy was
Speaker 1: lovely and she found a husband. Yeah, she certainly remember
Speaker 1: remember when she was literally the next big thing. Remember
Speaker 1: when she sang at the Tony Awards, Don't ran out
Speaker 1: My Parade and in the front row was Beyonce and
Speaker 1: jay Z, and she had the nerve too in front
Speaker 1: of Beyonce sort of look jay Z in his eyes
Speaker 1: and like sexily flirt with him. Watch the performance it's
Speaker 1: Don't ran out My Parade. At the Antony Awards, Liam Michelle,
Speaker 1: she said I've got to have my bite, sir, and
Speaker 1: she did it to jay Z and Beyonce's face is like,
Speaker 1: what is this bitch thinking right now? She was like no,
Speaker 1: she was like Beyonce in that moment she said get
Speaker 1: this turf away. We should say that later. Michelle has
Speaker 1: not shown us that she was a turf. Give me time,
Speaker 1: give it to you like famed term flea. Michelle ter Alter.
Speaker 1: I think we have to talk about Lady G now.
Speaker 1: I think we need g. Well, okay, so what is
Speaker 1: what have you guys read about Lady G. I've read,
Speaker 1: I've read the Ladybug thing, which I think, I think everything.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, which fiction it was? Okay, allegedly
Speaker 1: it's fiction. Allegedly it's not true or it's as ownline
Speaker 1: like allegation. Let's say, um for people who haven't can't
Speaker 1: be doing that? Well, no, no, no no, But the author
Speaker 1: said that it was fanfic. That I don't. I didn't
Speaker 1: read that. The author said this was fanfic. I didn't
Speaker 1: expect it to go viral. This come on. It's like,
Speaker 1: if we have actual people who are willing to come
Speaker 1: forward about miss Lady g a Lindsay Graham, the Senator
Speaker 1: from South Carolina, then what we need to do is
Speaker 1: we need to let those people come forward. We don't
Speaker 1: need fan fic right now. We don't need anyone to
Speaker 1: dismiss what these people might be saying because if Lindsay
Speaker 1: Graham is in any way um lying about his sexuality
Speaker 1: and passing anti lgbt Q, we need to deal with that.
Speaker 1: And if you were going to be lying and writing
Speaker 1: fan fick and like making this any more confusing than
Speaker 1: it need be, truly shut up because because these people
Speaker 1: should speak out, yes, and even but to meet out.
Speaker 1: And this is my honest sort of opinion on this
Speaker 1: is that even if he did have ladybugs and like
Speaker 1: moles around his anus that looks like fecal matter, ladybugs,
Speaker 1: like all of that is cool, Like all of that
Speaker 1: is cool and queer and like good for him. For like,
Speaker 1: if he had ladybugs around his asshole then like that
Speaker 1: is almost like if it weren't for the fact that
Speaker 1: he was this horrendous legislator, like I'd be like, oh cool,
Speaker 1: that's cool, Like that that endears Lady burg Johnson. Now
Speaker 1: we have a lady bug hole. Now you have a
Speaker 1: ladybug But I'm just like my first lady name, Yeah right,
Speaker 1: I mean lady ladybug Hole shows us around our pantry. Wow.
Speaker 1: I just think that all of this is like this
Speaker 1: would be endearing in any other world where Lindsey Graham
Speaker 1: was not this. We did not like actually push push
Speaker 1: homophobic policy, and didn't you know, like defend Brett Kavanaugh
Speaker 1: with all of his being. Should have known when I
Speaker 1: was reading that that couldn't be real. Someone on all
Speaker 1: on the bed saying, oh those are my little ladybug.
Speaker 1: There was a horrible Honestly, now looking back, it was
Speaker 1: a horrible piece of writing. Oh and we hate the
Speaker 1: writing now I hate the writing. No, I do hate
Speaker 1: the writing because it's a lie. Yeah, why are you
Speaker 1: contributing that right now? Those are my little ladybugs? We
Speaker 1: don't need that. It was gross to read, and now
Speaker 1: that I know it's not true, it's even grosser to
Speaker 1: think existed. He his face alone is enough to make
Speaker 1: me a puke forever. Like he's gross, auseating looking. He's
Speaker 1: like like, I'm not a good artist. And if I
Speaker 1: tried to draw a beautiful pig, it would you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like it would be Lindsey Graham, like
Speaker 1: as a bad artist, Like as a terrible drawer. If
Speaker 1: gave me a pencil and said draw a beautiful pig,
Speaker 1: I'd end up doing a point angle by angle portrait
Speaker 1: of him. Um, he's just a real piece of ship.
Speaker 1: And I'll be honest with you, I don't necessarily believe
Speaker 1: that his gayness alone is what they have over him.
Speaker 1: I think it's much more than that, because that to me,
Speaker 1: if he's at like sleeping with sex workers, um, you know,
Speaker 1: he would have to know that there's a threat that
Speaker 1: someone would come forward. So I don't and he's been
Speaker 1: doing it for decades, So I don't think that that
Speaker 1: is why. I can't explain unless they have a tape
Speaker 1: of him doing something horrible. I don't know what is
Speaker 1: a bone? What do you think? There has to be
Speaker 1: something actually elicit. There has to be like like he
Speaker 1: must I don't know. I don't, I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: know what it is. I don't want to conjecture too much,
Speaker 1: but it's like, yeah, I agree with you, it's got
Speaker 1: to be something darker. Well, all these people that that
Speaker 1: have still like rid behind Trump on this lane to hell,
Speaker 1: Like what exactly is it that keeps you doing that?
Speaker 1: And then you think, because we've passed the point where
Speaker 1: reason would intervene, it must be something that they're dark,
Speaker 1: Like what does he have a Marco Rubio? You know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Marco who I cannot stomach who like
Speaker 1: what dirt? He's really the worst, He's awful. What do
Speaker 1: they have? But how can they possibly have, Like let's
Speaker 1: say they have like a sex tape of someone, right,
Speaker 1: they can't have one for every single senator. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. Like something is up. I don't
Speaker 1: know what it is. I want to know. Also Ted
Speaker 1: Cruz the other day, like something's up with him too,
Speaker 1: because the toilet paper post. I was like, what are
Speaker 1: you talking about? By the way, Costco literally has so
Speaker 1: much toilet paper, but they're back. They're back, but order ordered.
Speaker 1: He's he's trying to get people to believe he ordered
Speaker 1: toilet paper in March and it only just arrived and
Speaker 1: it looked like that. He said, I what are this
Speaker 1: toilet paper back in March from Yampa? Didn't he didn't?
Speaker 1: He like throw China in there. He said, it's made
Speaker 1: in China and it looks like ship. I mean he
Speaker 1: took a picture of it. It was like bent all
Speaker 1: out of shape and like that is not what Chinese
Speaker 1: toilet paper looks like. For the record, Chinese toilet paper
Speaker 1: does not have it's it's just the rolled up paper
Speaker 1: and there's no cardboard rule. I like that. Yeah, like
Speaker 1: in a like in a public bathroom. Yes, I love that.
Speaker 1: I love that. I want to start doing that exactly.
Speaker 1: I'm glad. Would you say this is like one of
Speaker 1: your greatest episodes or I'm curious where does this fall?
Speaker 1: Top one? Top one percent? Top one? I want to
Speaker 1: I want to address my many cuts and bruises from
Speaker 1: falling on my bike. So um. Jared and I sort
Speaker 1: of took two bikes the their day to sort of,
Speaker 1: you know, escape what was going on in our day
Speaker 1: day live, just to get away for about twenty five
Speaker 1: minutes on a short bike ride. And I actually was
Speaker 1: putting the directions in on my mobile phone and with
Speaker 1: one hand and starting to drive the bike with the other.
Speaker 1: And and I'm telling you it was Jared says he
Speaker 1: thought I died before I hit the ground. It was
Speaker 1: the kind of thing where it was like I literally
Speaker 1: flipped over the handlebars on my bike. How fast were
Speaker 1: you going? Not that fast? But I just broke so
Speaker 1: so hard that I just went and flew like literally
Speaker 1: over my bikes. It was and I see you have
Speaker 1: to wear helmet, never wear one. And it was the
Speaker 1: kind of thing where it was like, I never really
Speaker 1: ride bikes, so I I was just like, well, how
Speaker 1: fast am I possibly gonna go? Well, how can I
Speaker 1: really get into an accident? Guys, where a helmet when
Speaker 1: you ride bikes? Because you're don't really scaring me. I'm
Speaker 1: serious for me that you're afraid, because I hope that
Speaker 1: you're the voice of the audience here and I hope
Speaker 1: that everyone is afraid. You need to be right wearing
Speaker 1: helmets when you ride bikes. You don't have to be
Speaker 1: going fast, you don't have to be experience and experience
Speaker 1: and actually it can happen to you at any time.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. I fell on my bike and luckily
Speaker 1: I landed on my wrist and my elbow here, but
Speaker 1: like it's kind of early, and um, I could have
Speaker 1: landed on my head and really hurt myself. So please
Speaker 1: be you know, I know that we're all anxious to
Speaker 1: get out there, Like I think that was part of it.
Speaker 1: I just wanted to get out an exercise and get
Speaker 1: on a bike. I was excited and I haven't been
Speaker 1: out much, um in the past few months. But yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I really I got a bike. Um, those of you
Speaker 1: who are familiar with me know that I'm not um
Speaker 1: like fit. I actually gonna be honest with you. I
Speaker 1: see like not, I'm not I'm not making a judgment
Speaker 1: call on this because a lot of people would be like,
Speaker 1: you're fat phobic. I'm like, no, I'm speaking fact. I'm
Speaker 1: fact anti fact phobic. What's what am I trying to say? Phobic? Fat?
Speaker 1: You're fat? Phil You're fat your fact file? Yes, yes, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: And but I do see, like over what has it
Speaker 1: been three months? Like when we when I first started
Speaker 1: doing these doms, I was like, I look stunning. You
Speaker 1: don't have to say anything, say nothing. I'm just saying
Speaker 1: I see it. But I love you. But I see it.
Speaker 1: But I see a difference. You know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: I see it and it's fine, It's who I am.
Speaker 1: But I got a bike to try to maybe like
Speaker 1: burning Calory or two, and I've been writing it and
Speaker 1: I got a helmet too. But you know that my head,
Speaker 1: I'm like Ikebob Crane, like Crane, I like, I love.
Speaker 1: When I was in Europe, this is relatable. I went
Speaker 1: to a hat store. I was like, I'm buying a
Speaker 1: hat and I went in and he had to literally
Speaker 1: take me like every lady's hat was like Elmer Fudd.
Speaker 1: And then I took me to the men's thoughts, and
Speaker 1: I had to go to the last thing in the
Speaker 1: men's hats to like full blown like Indiana Jones, like
Speaker 1: don't even ask. Okay, anyways, I didn't buy one. But helmets,
Speaker 1: I just look horrible in them. I don't like wearing them.
Speaker 1: But I've been writing my one, like they're so dorky
Speaker 1: and they're so fucking ugly, and especially when you're already
Speaker 1: like a big person, but I already have. I always
Speaker 1: joked that they're going to hang my skelet and at
Speaker 1: the Naturalist Museum, but like like after I go, they're
Speaker 1: gonna like wash off the flash and just hang me,
Speaker 1: send me next to the wash it off. But anyway,
Speaker 1: the point is that wash off the flash. Everyone next
Speaker 1: to the whale from the sea. When she always jokes
Speaker 1: that she always jokes that I always joke. I always
Speaker 1: joke that I always joke They're gonna wash off my
Speaker 1: flesh and hang next to the way God, oh my god,
Speaker 1: mill Colin. No. But anyways, but then today I took
Speaker 1: my bike because it was a beautiful day to day
Speaker 1: obviously there's a lot of horrible ship going on, horrible
Speaker 1: and good. It's confusing, but there's like good progress made.
Speaker 1: It was a good day. So it's like, I'm gona
Speaker 1: take my bike out because I need to like let
Speaker 1: some steam out. And I did not wear my helmet
Speaker 1: and it's so bumpy by Riverside Park that at one
Speaker 1: point I slammed the brakes and I get it because
Speaker 1: if you go over, if you slam too quick, your
Speaker 1: body is still moving the cent trifical force or whatever
Speaker 1: it is. I said trifical force, like I know what
Speaker 1: the funk I was talking about. Um anyway, like there
Speaker 1: were some forces going on that I flew over my bike,
Speaker 1: landed on my elbow and my wrist, and you know,
Speaker 1: Jared was great and helped me out, but it was
Speaker 1: it was tough, and I want everyone to be wearing helmets.
Speaker 1: And what I also want to do right now is
Speaker 1: take a short break before we get to I don't
Speaker 1: think so honey, because I'll just be real and human.
Speaker 1: I have to urinate. So we're gonna take a short
Speaker 1: break and we're right back with I don't think so
Speaker 1: honey perfect. So we're back and we're Actually we were
Speaker 1: off Mike. We were talking about, um, what things will
Speaker 1: be like when we all kind of come back, because
Speaker 1: I have made my first trip to a restaurant. I
Speaker 1: have been to a restaurant. I'm willing to say on
Speaker 1: Mike that it was a jarney experience to go into
Speaker 1: a restaurant again. In the California area. Things are starting
Speaker 1: to open up a little bit more like normal, and um,
Speaker 1: I was saying to Michelle and Bowen that there was
Speaker 1: that moment where a waiter kind of came over one
Speaker 1: too many times and I was like, we're good, thanks,
Speaker 1: And in the back of my head, I was like,
Speaker 1: he's been over a few too many times. But I
Speaker 1: was like, wow, But I would never actively be annoyed
Speaker 1: about that anymore because this is I feel like when
Speaker 1: we come back, we're all going to be or I
Speaker 1: really genuinely hope that when everything does quote unquote get
Speaker 1: back to normal, that people will be more appreciative of
Speaker 1: restaurant staff and bar staff. And you guys were saying,
Speaker 1: you don't know about that. Well, Michelle kind of had
Speaker 1: like a fun underlying point. But my thing is, I
Speaker 1: think p Bowl now just like the just the idea
Speaker 1: of going out and like being out in public, is
Speaker 1: this like I hate, I hate, I hate turning it
Speaker 1: this way. But it's this political thing now where it's
Speaker 1: like people are so on such different thresholds of like
Speaker 1: agitation and just like not like just everyone's just like
Speaker 1: basically in agoraphobe at this stage. And I feel like
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's gonna extrapolate well once things
Speaker 1: start to resemble normalcy, and I think people are going
Speaker 1: to be very are gonna be a're gonna have very
Speaker 1: short fuses around how people behave in society. I just
Speaker 1: think like I am dying to go to a restaurant,
Speaker 1: I'm dying to go on a date, have a drink,
Speaker 1: like be cute. I honestly I am dying to be
Speaker 1: looked at without my mask because truly, yes, it's it's
Speaker 1: like just from here, I mean, listen from here down
Speaker 1: sort of a blessing to me right cover the raw,
Speaker 1: make it a life. But I've always said that I'd
Speaker 1: be a beautiful I'd be beautiful third wife. That's always
Speaker 1: my my long time but um no, but I feel
Speaker 1: like when the vaccine comes and when we're able to
Speaker 1: be normal, yes, people at the beginning are going to
Speaker 1: be like, thank you so much. But also I've been
Speaker 1: nice to people, but I don't think everyone's gonna be nice.
Speaker 1: I think people are getting very bitchy. They might be
Speaker 1: nice the first week, but like people are going to
Speaker 1: snap right back into who they are as people. Within
Speaker 1: two weeks they'll be great or a month, whatever it is,
Speaker 1: it's gonna settle. The desk will settle, and people are
Speaker 1: going to be who they are, you know, and there
Speaker 1: and they're um little, I don't know, neurosis will call them,
Speaker 1: will have like baked over the course of like fourteen
Speaker 1: months or something. You know, it's like everyone's just gonna
Speaker 1: like calcified to the into some bad version of themselves,
Speaker 1: is what I think. Yeah, I guess I just want
Speaker 1: to believe because I I, like I said, like I
Speaker 1: went to a restaurant and again, I just want to say,
Speaker 1: masks were worn like they were social distancing. It was
Speaker 1: everything protocol was followed by everyone the way it needed
Speaker 1: to be. But I just speak to how I felt,
Speaker 1: which is I was so happy to be out there
Speaker 1: and I was sort of I was sort of remarking
Speaker 1: on how nice it was to be in that setting again,
Speaker 1: and I just thought to myself, maybe one whatever you
Speaker 1: wanna call it, Like, I know, silver lying is not
Speaker 1: like a tasteful thing to say about this whole thing,
Speaker 1: because there's no silver lining to coronavirus. But what I
Speaker 1: hope is that people will just sort of step back
Speaker 1: and say this, these are not um givens anymore. It's
Speaker 1: not a given that you can just go out to
Speaker 1: a restaurant and do whatever you want. Like it's not
Speaker 1: a given that you can go to a bar me people.
Speaker 1: It's not a given that you can be around more
Speaker 1: than five six, seven, you know whatever. The next of
Speaker 1: them is ten friends. So I would hope that people
Speaker 1: will be more grateful for those spaces. But then again,
Speaker 1: I do think, like you know, a real and whatever
Speaker 1: quote unquote negative or realistic way you can look at
Speaker 1: society is no, they'll just kind of kick back into
Speaker 1: the way that they are, because people are the way
Speaker 1: they are. However, I do like I do like to
Speaker 1: think of myself as a little bit of an optimist,
Speaker 1: and I would hope that we could at least take
Speaker 1: something positive out of all the ship that we've gone through.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm gonna I'm gonna be like, I want to
Speaker 1: kiss dogs on the lips. Yeah, I wanna. I want
Speaker 1: to like every dog I see. Oh my gosh, um,
Speaker 1: do you know what the worst thing I said in
Speaker 1: quarantine was that I was with my mask on. And
Speaker 1: they said earlier on that you couldn't like pet dogs
Speaker 1: strange dogs, because they get tired in your hands and
Speaker 1: then they get carriot. So this guy was walking with
Speaker 1: his dog. I was sitting by the pier in by
Speaker 1: like Lincoln Center, and the cutest dog walked right by
Speaker 1: me and like hopped up to my chair and was like,
Speaker 1: you know, like Dynae pet. And I went, oh. I went,
Speaker 1: oh my god, you're so cute. And I looked at
Speaker 1: the owner and I went, Okay, can I pet him?
Speaker 1: I shouldn't, right, And he shook his head no, and
Speaker 1: I went, Dottie, won't let me pet? Was cute? Was
Speaker 1: the guy? No? No, no, no. It was like Lady
Speaker 1: G's brother. Bas I was like, Donnie won't let me pat,
Speaker 1: you know, Lady Jesus brother. It was Lady Juice brother.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, he really is horrible. And you know
Speaker 1: the thing about Lady G is like I was like
Speaker 1: if you went to one addition, and acted like lady
Speaker 1: g they'd be like too broad. Yeah, he's so good
Speaker 1: Nathan Lane in the birdcage, right, Oh, Nathan Lane be perfect. Well,
Speaker 1: I thank the sap ba ba. That's good. He's Nathan
Speaker 1: and he's Jeane Hackman rolled into one horse. Wow, I love.
Speaker 1: That's what I meant to say. Yeah, that's perfect. And honestly,
Speaker 1: you know, Megan McCain was his is his, her father
Speaker 1: was good friends with Lindsay and I best probably blond
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like John McCain and Lindsey Graham were like
Speaker 1: best friends, and so the die Job probably maybe they
Speaker 1: go to the same hairst host. Oh do like this
Speaker 1: theory where the hell is miss McCain in these days?
Speaker 1: Because she's pregnant and she got in trouble because she
Speaker 1: said it's a war zone outside. She's not even in town,
Speaker 1: and then Kristin Bartlett tweeted, I'm living your apartment and
Speaker 1: it's fine, and then we found out she wasn't even there.
Speaker 1: She wasn't even there. Yeah. Um, truly, I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't speak ill of anyone on the View again until
Speaker 1: my book comes out, for um, so I have to
Speaker 1: I have to sort of cough a little bit, So
Speaker 1: you want to introduce our segment? Yes, okay, so while
Speaker 1: Matt coughs um and expels his droplets, we're going to
Speaker 1: move on to our segment. I don't think so honey.
Speaker 1: I don't think so honey is where we take one
Speaker 1: minute each to rail on something that's happening in culture. Um.
Speaker 1: I we we delayed the recording a few minutes because
Speaker 1: and this is actually good because Michelle wanted to prepare hers,
Speaker 1: which then motivated Matt and I prepare ours because we
Speaker 1: normally never do. Um. So I think, I think this,
Speaker 1: this is holding us accountable. Michelle, I didn't. I didn't
Speaker 1: prepare anything. Your producer, who I love. I'm not throwing
Speaker 1: her into the bus here because I adore her. Anna, Hi,
Speaker 1: we love. Anna was like, oh, I mean the name
Speaker 1: of the show, Like literally, of course I've done this
Speaker 1: show before. And she was like, don't forget you have
Speaker 1: to prepare that thing. And I was like, I didn't
Speaker 1: do that. So you've been a judge. I don't think
Speaker 1: so any live culture. You are so esteemed to us.
Speaker 1: I had the best time judging that show. I remember
Speaker 1: that that wasn't mean to me and then when you
Speaker 1: talked me after, it was a joke. Shook, great joke.
Speaker 1: Well funny, funny girl, funny, my favorite feud and comedy.
Speaker 1: I don't even know her name. I'm not trying to
Speaker 1: be at an I don't know. No, no, no, it's
Speaker 1: great anyway. So yes, so I didn't prepare one either,
Speaker 1: but I picked one. Yes, say, I picked one. I
Speaker 1: did not write my beats out all right, bowen Yang,
Speaker 1: this is your I don't think so, Anny, His time
Speaker 1: is going to start now. I don't think so, honey.
Speaker 1: Bunker's bunkers are, if you think about it, white, because
Speaker 1: it's a real estate. It's a it's an extra piece
Speaker 1: of real estate you have, right. And with every housing
Speaker 1: inequity that our country has been plagued with that has
Speaker 1: been targeted at black people, I mean the the diametric
Speaker 1: opposite of the houses of of of like, the housing
Speaker 1: crisis among our black people is white people having bunkers.
Speaker 1: Anyone who is a bunker is white or is pushing
Speaker 1: white supremisist thought into the world, into our spaces, and
Speaker 1: they are creating spaces for their own protection. And if
Speaker 1: we're going to be talking about property, o baby, bunkers.
Speaker 1: Bunkers are the worst thing. And what what do you
Speaker 1: have in bunkers? Rifles and canned food. That's trashy and
Speaker 1: that is I think Occasian Caucasian cultural thing. Canned food
Speaker 1: and shotguns are Caucasian. That's why minute's culture. I can't
Speaker 1: fathom someone having a bunker. I am so excited that
Speaker 1: you chose bunkers because on my show this week, I'm serious,
Speaker 1: I did a whole segment about the word bunker because
Speaker 1: it made me laugh so much. I said, the only
Speaker 1: two bunkers I know are Edith Bunker and Trump's bunker,
Speaker 1: Like I don't know any other bunker. And also the
Speaker 1: word is like l O L the word bunker. Poster
Speaker 1: laughs like it's funny. It's a funny words. I'm going
Speaker 1: down into my bunker. Guess where the word comes from?
Speaker 1: Where does it come from? So it's comes from the
Speaker 1: word Old Swedish bunky, which means boards used to protect
Speaker 1: the cargo of a ship. And then they called they
Speaker 1: ended up calling um bunkers benches. And actually the word
Speaker 1: only became an English used word after World War Two
Speaker 1: because the Germans were they had below grounds. They called
Speaker 1: it guess what they called it, the fucking fearer bunker. Oh,
Speaker 1: of course Trump has a fucking fearer bunker. So there's
Speaker 1: so much white supremacy built in. It's funny that you
Speaker 1: brought this word up. I was really excited to educate people.
Speaker 1: And I love this Michelle, What is the deal with
Speaker 1: Caitlin whatever? Who speaks for him? Now? Oh? Please? Who?
Speaker 1: Then he goes to like University of Arizona graduations and
Speaker 1: plugs the first girl to her it does started cammering
Speaker 1: and hires them to me a favor. Um, it really
Speaker 1: feels like that. That's girl funny with that bunker ship.
Speaker 1: That is hilarious. And so you heard the word bunker
Speaker 1: popularized over the past week and a half, and you thought,
Speaker 1: let me deep dive into the word bunker the etymology
Speaker 1: on my show. Um, I don't plan anything and it's
Speaker 1: two hours a day, and so I just want something
Speaker 1: like makes my you know, I have a brain spark.
Speaker 1: I thought, what the fund is the word bunker? It
Speaker 1: just sounded funny, and it sounds a little bit like higgy,
Speaker 1: which is another Swedish word. It just I knew there
Speaker 1: was going to be something in that word and it delivered.
Speaker 1: I never I don't do etymology often on my show,
Speaker 1: I'll be very upfront, but this one really delivered for me.
Speaker 1: I love that. What do you should make etymology more
Speaker 1: part of your thing? Because this is really educational stuff.
Speaker 1: I would do it. What what? What are the origins
Speaker 1: of higgy of huiga or whereever you pronounce it? Oh, higgy,
Speaker 1: let's look it up. Okay, okay, it's definitely I don't know. Well,
Speaker 1: it's Swedish. I think whatever I've I've been told by
Speaker 1: so many different people. Yeah, with an um lot over
Speaker 1: the why. I don't even know. Someone's gonna come up
Speaker 1: here it is. No, it's Danish Norwegian. It's actually not Swedish.
Speaker 1: Oh brother, I've been canceled. There we here we go,
Speaker 1: Here we go. I've been canceled. I don't leave it
Speaker 1: Anymalogy is the Danish word. Oh, this is so cute.
Speaker 1: Picture me. It's like a little cartoon character eating this
Speaker 1: meaning to give courage, comfort, and enjoy. Higgy stands from higgia,
Speaker 1: which means it's to think an old Norse, and so
Speaker 1: the word comes from old nurse. This is not getting bored,
Speaker 1: which comes from the word hug which means soul, mind
Speaker 1: and consciousness. It is interesting I take a pack. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's the word just related to higgy. Ultimately interesting because
Speaker 1: it's a feeling, it's a sensation. Yeah, well we love that, Okay,
Speaker 1: And I think it's I think it's I think it's
Speaker 1: time for Michelle's Michelle's going to be bad. I just
Speaker 1: did a real stinker. Okay, Michelle's holding her It's actually
Speaker 1: gonna be good because she's changing her Pomster. So this
Speaker 1: is Michelle Collins. I don't think so, honey. Her time
Speaker 1: starts now. I don't think so, honey. Las Vegas, Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: I know you're the horror of cities. We all know.
Speaker 1: I've been to Vegas many, many times. When you're sitting
Speaker 1: at every you can feel the breath of disease on
Speaker 1: you there pre coronavirus. I mean I not. This is
Speaker 1: a brag story telling in ten seconds. At one time,
Speaker 1: my friend lost me was like, where's Michelle, Where's Michelle?
Speaker 1: Turned around, I was making out with a man I
Speaker 1: did not know his name. He walked up to me
Speaker 1: and started making up is disease or in the city?
Speaker 1: And your mayor Caroline Goodman who's a fucking assholes an embarrassment,
Speaker 1: and now you've opened up. You've opened up when the
Speaker 1: only reason you should be opening up is to fucking
Speaker 1: protest for Black Lives Matter, the only excuse I will
Speaker 1: have to for a wave to. I'll take a second
Speaker 1: wave if it's around the protest. But if it's around
Speaker 1: some fucking asshole putting his wife's money down without her
Speaker 1: knowing to lose their home, I don't even know where
Speaker 1: to begin. A Selen Diana, you should be ashamed. No,
Speaker 1: I love her. I'm just saying Vegas needs sit down.
Speaker 1: It's gonna kill this country. And that's the end of
Speaker 1: my thing. I'm also like, honestly, I'm upset with Vegas
Speaker 1: because they promised so many good shows coming up and
Speaker 1: now they're all cancel. What was coming up? Kelly Clarkson Live,
Speaker 1: Oh l K cl I forgot Kelly Clarkston was having
Speaker 1: a damn Vegas show experience in the same theater that
Speaker 1: Christina Aguilera had her show. The experience which I went
Speaker 1: to go see which hotel is that in? It was Hollywood?
Speaker 1: I believe No, Wait, I'm forgetting. Why have you been
Speaker 1: to many Vega shows? I've been to all of them, sweetheart,
Speaker 1: and that's why I don't think so Brittany. I've seen
Speaker 1: Selean twice in Vegas. Ums. Oh, anyone to the Zappos Theater.
Speaker 1: That's where Christina and Kelly were. That's really funny theater.
Speaker 1: I meant, you can catch me at the Gusher's Answer coming.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be doing some stand up there. Um once
Speaker 1: this thing is over, we're doing live tapings of some sauce.
Speaker 1: Did you guys see Gushers? I mean, I mean all
Speaker 1: the brands of Gushers made a statement. But then my
Speaker 1: favorite part of the statement was we will be working
Speaker 1: with Fruit by the Foot to like try to dismantle
Speaker 1: racism and all this stuff. I have so many things
Speaker 1: to be upset about right now, but I did zero
Speaker 1: in on on one thing. And even though it is
Speaker 1: of course sort of a broad topic, I would like
Speaker 1: to speak about it, and this is Matt Rodgers. I
Speaker 1: don't think so Honey, as time starts and now, I
Speaker 1: don't think so Hony home depot as a gay child
Speaker 1: being brought into you, you were terror. It was a
Speaker 1: zoo filled with beasts. Where the beast where the wood
Speaker 1: and the sauce, and the and the hammers. And I
Speaker 1: hate you because whatever is a gay child being brought
Speaker 1: into you, all I saw around was my fear. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: in my own shed, in my backyard, my father would say,
Speaker 1: go there and get me a hammer. I would go there.
Speaker 1: I would go into the shed. I would look at
Speaker 1: all these different tools. I didn't know what a hammer was.
Speaker 1: That's how gay I am. You home Depot, a shop
Speaker 1: full of hammers and the ilk. You terrorize me, and
Speaker 1: now in my early thirties. Yes, you tell me that
Speaker 1: you're making a donation to Trump Politically. You terrorize me physically,
Speaker 1: you terrorize me emotionally. You terrorize me. And I tell
Speaker 1: my father you shop at Lows from now on, and
Speaker 1: you know, he says to me, yes, he agrees with me.
Speaker 1: So you have lost even the masculine, even the man,
Speaker 1: you have lost. I don't think so, honey, home depot.
Speaker 1: And that's one minute. Even the masculine, even the men
Speaker 1: and hammers and the ilk, beautiful, The masculine is like,
Speaker 1: why I diet? That's right there. That's why I'm hiring
Speaker 1: a Trainer's that you could be like, you've lost even
Speaker 1: the masculine I'm like, thank you you at Home Depot, Like,
Speaker 1: I can't imagine a store that has caused me more
Speaker 1: pain throughout my life than going there with my father
Speaker 1: and having to be like, oh, it's time to go
Speaker 1: buy wood. Imagine, like I don't know what is going
Speaker 1: on there are there are like gayer parts of Home
Speaker 1: Depot like paint no no, Like they have like a
Speaker 1: swiffer aisle and they have they sell like containers and
Speaker 1: the soil aisles are fun. It's like they said they
Speaker 1: gotta go to lowss I. You know what, I'm very
Speaker 1: upset to hear that they donated to Trump because I'll
Speaker 1: be real with you, I don't love a lows that
Speaker 1: I will learn to love those Home Depot donated to Trump,
Speaker 1: Burger King donated to Trump, Pizza Hut donated to Trump.
Speaker 1: Like that I could go on. It's like the franchise
Speaker 1: owners because I heard talk about dead and I had
Speaker 1: to regurgitate the crunch trap I have to breakfast. I
Speaker 1: was like, what the crunch trap I had for breakfast? Wow? Um?
Speaker 1: So much um culture ruined here on the portion of
Speaker 1: the episode. I can we just say something you boys,
Speaker 1: After a very harrowing few months have just totally pulled
Speaker 1: my soul out from the dirt. We hope, we hope
Speaker 1: that everyone listening UM has been taking care of themselves
Speaker 1: and we're happy to hear that. And we were so
Speaker 1: happy to have you, Michelle. I believe we laughed throughout
