WEBVTT - Episode VIII: The Opening Ceremony

0:00:03.760 --> 0:00:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Ring, Rang, Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring Ring.

0:00:08.440 --> 0:00:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, I said six. Well, that is so messed

0:00:11.600 --> 0:00:11.960
<v Speaker 2>up of me.

0:00:13.240 --> 0:00:16.160
<v Speaker 1>On the night of my son's wedding on the night

0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:20.079
<v Speaker 1>before the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics in twenty twenty.

0:00:19.840 --> 0:00:23.880
<v Speaker 2>Four, I've completely blown it. I said six rings when

0:00:23.920 --> 0:00:26.120
<v Speaker 2>this is famously two guys, five rings.

0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Let's take it again, Yeah, let's take it again.

0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:38.040
<v Speaker 2>Reddy ring Ring Ring Ring Lang. Way, I have the yips.

0:00:38.720 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 1>You've got the yips. But I think maybe you are

0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:44.479
<v Speaker 1>just just answer the question odds or evens?

0:00:45.120 --> 0:00:47.559
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, oh Evans. I think I'm even.

0:00:47.440 --> 0:00:49.839
<v Speaker 1>Said, there you go, and are you odds? You know,

0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:51.400
<v Speaker 1>in my past I would have said evans, but in

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:54.440
<v Speaker 1>my maturity, I would say odds. And I think you're

0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:56.640
<v Speaker 1>an evens guy. And so that's why you said it

0:00:56.720 --> 0:00:57.720
<v Speaker 1>six times in five.

0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:00.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I have one number to two down my

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:03.480
<v Speaker 2>body and it is an even number, even number, So

0:01:03.560 --> 0:01:05.320
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean. I feel like I feel

0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:08.919
<v Speaker 2>like I am very attracted to things that divide.

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Cleanly, and I like something that has a center.

0:01:13.240 --> 0:01:18.200
<v Speaker 2>You love mess, I love mess. You love it's challengers coded,

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:23.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean, yeah, it's challengers coded one two, three you, Brittany,

0:01:24.040 --> 0:01:27.360
<v Speaker 2>not only you and me. Honestly, you know who's in

0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:32.360
<v Speaker 2>my camp fiance famous even numbered queen for for what else?

0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:41.080
<v Speaker 2>Eight eight? Because she ate that? Well, I guess, I guess, yes, exactly,

0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:42.160
<v Speaker 2>that's exactly how it meant it.

0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:43.600
<v Speaker 1>What did you mean?

0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Well, remember at the end of Get My Body, she

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:51.240
<v Speaker 2>goes nine four eight one b DA, And I was

0:01:51.280 --> 0:01:52.800
<v Speaker 2>going to sort of use that as an example, but

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:55.800
<v Speaker 2>there's actually equal part even and odd numbers in that,

0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:57.400
<v Speaker 2>so it would not be the case.

0:01:57.560 --> 0:01:59.400
<v Speaker 1>So then that, no, it does help your case because

0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>she didn't even number of both. Oh wow, interesting, See

0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:06.040
<v Speaker 1>this is what I'm saying. You think about things from

0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:08.960
<v Speaker 1>a way that would suggest you have a greater mind

0:02:09.080 --> 0:02:12.840
<v Speaker 1>than the rest of a beautiful mind, even like Russell Crowe. Oh,

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 1>let's hope not because that man was troubled.

0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:24.519
<v Speaker 2>Are you doing the soundtrack of a beautiful mind?

0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:28.079
<v Speaker 1>And it's really ingrained? Because you know, what was my

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:32.639
<v Speaker 1>first starring role? What my sister in the eighth grade

0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:37.320
<v Speaker 1>made a film quote unquote from her clack. I don't

0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:38.960
<v Speaker 1>know she was, she was just she made. She made

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.919
<v Speaker 1>She was a filmmaker. She wrote a film that was

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:44.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of like a beautiful Mind meets the miracle Worker.

0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god.

0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:49.920
<v Speaker 1>But it was called an Unbeautiful Mind, and I played

0:02:50.840 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 1>a very troubled child. And there was like an Anne

0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Bancroft kind of like person who came in played by

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Rachel Pontius, one of my sister's friends. Uh huh. And

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:05.240
<v Speaker 1>it was just this whole like there was a scene

0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:06.959
<v Speaker 1>where I ate cereal without a spoon.

0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 2>That's so troubled.

0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:11.440
<v Speaker 1>It was very It was a very tough role.

0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:14.200
<v Speaker 2>You clearly were disturbed. Did you throw yourself into it?

0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:16.880
<v Speaker 2>Were you method? Were you being a rascal? I was?

0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:19.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean that that was a whole day shoot. And

0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:25.040
<v Speaker 1>I really I didn't know what first team second team was, like,

0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:27.679
<v Speaker 1>I really did. I did not even really know what

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:30.040
<v Speaker 1>you were doing. I mean, you never know how to

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 1>perform your show up in either it's like crackling or

0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:35.960
<v Speaker 1>it's not. And it sounds like your performance was crackling.

0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:38.080
<v Speaker 1>And we clearly know that you would go on to

0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:41.320
<v Speaker 1>develop your talent so that audiences worldwide could share in it.

0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:44.200
<v Speaker 1>And girl, I'm sorry, are you talking about your own trajectory,

0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:46.120
<v Speaker 1>because I think you've done exactly the same.

0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't like this thing or I don't. It's not

0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:50.840
<v Speaker 2>that I don't like it. I don't want you to

0:03:50.920 --> 0:03:54.720
<v Speaker 2>feel the need to, but I feel I don't like

0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:56.640
<v Speaker 2>this is your moment. I don't feel.

0:03:56.520 --> 0:04:00.640
<v Speaker 1>Anything except the equivalent sentiment. You know how I feel

0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:02.760
<v Speaker 1>about you and your work and the way you show

0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 1>up and show out every day. You are one of

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 1>the great talents.

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:11.800
<v Speaker 2>Thank you for saying this. It moves me. I want

0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:13.520
<v Speaker 2>to know. So you are someone who did a lot

0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:16.080
<v Speaker 2>of home videos as a kid. You yang, you got

0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:16.720
<v Speaker 2>you got to it?

0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:22.080
<v Speaker 1>Not really? Well, God, yeah, my away message on aim

0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:25.560
<v Speaker 1>for a little bit after I had like developed a

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:29.360
<v Speaker 1>sort of filmography as it were, at school, I announced

0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:31.000
<v Speaker 1>to be a way message that I was working on

0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:33.520
<v Speaker 1>a film called Varsity Chicks that was going to be

0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 1>about cheerleaders, and I like designed the fonts and like,

0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:39.200
<v Speaker 1>I like, I like really graphic design.

0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:41.800
<v Speaker 2>This this is this is a huge tip to what

0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:42.480
<v Speaker 2>you would become.

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:46.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, it was like, it's so my thing now my

0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:49.880
<v Speaker 1>bag now, which is to publicize and announce the project

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:51.480
<v Speaker 1>that I'm doing and then never follow through on it.

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.160
<v Speaker 2>I can't remember the last time that that happened with you.

0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:57.440
<v Speaker 2>I think that you're now that's where you again, you're

0:04:57.560 --> 0:05:01.400
<v Speaker 2>casting aspersion on this narrative when they're be any. Every

0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:05.039
<v Speaker 2>time we've announced something, it has come to fruish. We've

0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:06.520
<v Speaker 2>never canceled the show, I.

0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:11.440
<v Speaker 1>Know, but I've like I've canceled like my screenplay ideas.

0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:13.880
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, well that's just private. I mean we all

0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:14.920
<v Speaker 2>do that, I know.

0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:18.200
<v Speaker 1>Still I feel a little something. I'm like, oh, man,

0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:19.760
<v Speaker 1>I didn't I didn't do that.

0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:22.200
<v Speaker 2>We can't talk about this, but in terms of the

0:05:22.240 --> 0:05:24.520
<v Speaker 2>stuff that has materialized, like I wonder, like, do you

0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:26.920
<v Speaker 2>ever have you rewatched any of the videos that you

0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:28.880
<v Speaker 2>did as a kid, and do you ever think, wow,

0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:30.000
<v Speaker 2>my tour?

0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:32.840
<v Speaker 1>No, I have no interest. Oh my god, I have

0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:35.640
<v Speaker 1>like really put that away.

0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:38.360
<v Speaker 2>There's one video that we did when we were kids.

0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:40.160
<v Speaker 2>By the way, this is a her getting back to

0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:42.760
<v Speaker 2>the last episode. I did recreate the entire music video

0:05:42.839 --> 0:05:44.920
<v Speaker 2>to behind Me Seselies with my cousin Michael. I was

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:46.680
<v Speaker 2>the star and he was the director. And yes, I

0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:49.960
<v Speaker 2>did run through a sprinkler and throw myself in the pool.

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:50.160
<v Speaker 1>At the end.

0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:55.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, now, okay, it's true. It's true. The rumors are

0:05:55.960 --> 0:06:00.480
<v Speaker 2>out there. The like sympathy is a knife, like everyone

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:02.719
<v Speaker 2>is trying to get me like it's true. Okay, I'll

0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 2>come out and say it. I did that, you did that,

0:06:06.600 --> 0:06:08.480
<v Speaker 2>But that is not the one I'm talking about. We

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:12.760
<v Speaker 2>did a short film called The Spy You and Michael, Yeah, well,

0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:14.280
<v Speaker 2>I have to show you. It's what I have to

0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:16.000
<v Speaker 2>find it it is and Chelsea's in it too, my

0:06:16.080 --> 0:06:18.400
<v Speaker 2>little sister. But I have a scene where I talk

0:06:18.440 --> 0:06:21.360
<v Speaker 2>on the phone to someone off screen. I talk on

0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:25.720
<v Speaker 2>the phone some of the most natural talking on the

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:29.000
<v Speaker 2>phone and high intensity and like it was. I watched it.

0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:30.800
<v Speaker 2>I remember watching it with all my aunts and my

0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.520
<v Speaker 2>Aunta Laine turned to my aunt Laurie and said, he's

0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:34.200
<v Speaker 2>actually good.

0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:36.599
<v Speaker 1>Ah, I'm sure.

0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:39.159
<v Speaker 2>It was the first time I realized I had something

0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:41.120
<v Speaker 2>I could have been in twenty four. I wanted to

0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:43.320
<v Speaker 2>be on the show twenty four so bad. That was

0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:45.960
<v Speaker 2>what informed the Spy film. I wanted to keep. For

0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:49.160
<v Speaker 2>Sutherland to get me in a choke cold, throw me

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:53.000
<v Speaker 2>up against the wall and scream wherrishy. I wanted that

0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:56.880
<v Speaker 2>more than and for me to respond, oh, I don't know,

0:06:57.520 --> 0:06:59.200
<v Speaker 2>and then him like choked me hard and be like

0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:04.680
<v Speaker 2>eh it Like Mikhael took her, but you'll be too late.

0:07:04.760 --> 0:07:06.480
<v Speaker 2>And then I take a cyanide pill and die and

0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:09.440
<v Speaker 2>they cut to their commercial like, dun't dun, doun't dun,

0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:11.760
<v Speaker 2>dun't dun, and you never see me again.

0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:18.320
<v Speaker 1>Let's start the campaign. That's what I wanted more than anything,

0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:20.400
<v Speaker 1>and I think part of you still wants it.

0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:26.280
<v Speaker 2>So bad. I want to be a morally compromised character

0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:30.920
<v Speaker 2>that Kei for Sutherland, screams at and physically intimidates in

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:32.560
<v Speaker 2>such a major way.

0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:37.600
<v Speaker 1>But the phone call is giving me like Liam Neeson vibes,

0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:41.160
<v Speaker 1>maybe Jason Statham like like just really.

0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:54.800
<v Speaker 3>Oh oh wow, hell, yes, yes, got it, thank you, I.

0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Just did it. And podcasts are individual medium.

0:07:57.040 --> 0:08:00.520
<v Speaker 1>But that was okay. So now I got three things.

0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:05.640
<v Speaker 1>It's Liam Neeson, Jason Statham, Sandra owned the Princess Diaries.

0:08:06.920 --> 0:08:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Got mm hm m hm. The Queen is coming to

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:12.920
<v Speaker 1>govis coming.

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:18.760
<v Speaker 2>She's should have been a nomination.

0:08:19.280 --> 0:08:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Also, I think that what you're describing in the twenty

0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:29.280
<v Speaker 1>four fantasy for yourself, it reminds me of that one

0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:31.400
<v Speaker 1>guy who made a meal out of two or three

0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:34.719
<v Speaker 1>lines in Charlie's Angels, the first movie, the guy who

0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:37.839
<v Speaker 1>tries to kill Cameron Diaz at the club, at the

0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:41.800
<v Speaker 1>Soul Training Club. Mm hmmm, and she like hasn't hasn't

0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:46.000
<v Speaker 1>is choking him with her heel yep, who sent you?

0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:51.960
<v Speaker 2>What? Who? Vivian Wood, bitch?

0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:55.480
<v Speaker 1>And then she like Roundhouse kicks him, but he slayd

0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:56.280
<v Speaker 1>his lines.

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:58.040
<v Speaker 2>Killed it. Vivian Wood.

0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:01.000
<v Speaker 1>It spits out class.

0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:03.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, what a great film, just the best,

0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:05.480
<v Speaker 2>the best. I really like talking about these early filming

0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:08.440
<v Speaker 2>experiences because you almost could say, Bo that these were

0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:13.160
<v Speaker 2>in terms of our artistic lives. And that's how we

0:09:13.240 --> 0:09:15.959
<v Speaker 2>bring it back to Paris. And we always bring it

0:09:16.000 --> 0:09:17.760
<v Speaker 2>back to Paris on this podcast, even if we only

0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:19.960
<v Speaker 2>stay on Paris at that point for about three minutes,

0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:21.240
<v Speaker 2>but we always bring it back.

0:09:21.360 --> 0:09:23.040
<v Speaker 1>But we always bring it back. So now we're past

0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:25.360
<v Speaker 1>the two guys portion of the podcast. We are firmly

0:09:25.440 --> 0:09:27.840
<v Speaker 1>in five Rings territory. When we come back, we are

0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:33.040
<v Speaker 1>talking all about the Paris Opening ceremonies and opening ceremonies.

0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 2>Of old, and we're back Bo. It's tightly held secret

0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:48.800
<v Speaker 2>what's going to happen tomorrow at the opening ceremonies. Literally,

0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:51.880
<v Speaker 2>even our trust that NBC researchers and people behind the curtain.

0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Yes we have them. They could not tell us a thing.

0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:56.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know if they know. So maybe we

0:09:57.000 --> 0:09:59.640
<v Speaker 2>make some educated guesses about what's in store, like what

0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:01.680
<v Speaker 2>do you think thinking? What do you want to see

0:10:02.120 --> 0:10:04.480
<v Speaker 2>light Paris up on opening night?

0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:06.959
<v Speaker 1>I well as what we do know is that it

0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:09.960
<v Speaker 1>will be outside. It will not be limited to a stadium,

0:10:10.080 --> 0:10:12.959
<v Speaker 1>it will be along the send. I'm hoping that we

0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:16.760
<v Speaker 1>get much like the nineteen eighty nine Oscars produced by

0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:19.559
<v Speaker 1>Alan Carr, in which snow White shows up out of

0:10:19.640 --> 0:10:23.959
<v Speaker 1>nowhere for no reason. I want Bell, for good reason,

0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.679
<v Speaker 1>to show up and think about how provincial of the

0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:28.800
<v Speaker 1>life she has. There must be more of this provincial life.

0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:32.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I would love Bell to sort of kick off

0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:37.079
<v Speaker 2>the ceremony with something that's really about France, which is

0:10:37.960 --> 0:10:40.920
<v Speaker 2>getting in the beast of that song, that provincial life.

0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:44.679
<v Speaker 2>Bringing that to the large stage of the Olympics, I

0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:49.360
<v Speaker 2>think would unite those across political boundaries. And we're not

0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:51.400
<v Speaker 2>here to talk about politics, but I'm going to imagine

0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:54.360
<v Speaker 2>I also have it in Paris, and I'm going to

0:10:54.440 --> 0:10:57.120
<v Speaker 2>imagine that things are very difficult there because I feel

0:10:57.240 --> 0:11:01.520
<v Speaker 2>like nowhere politics is good. So I'm gonna assume comparison

0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:04.400
<v Speaker 2>A has politics and B needs to heal from it.

0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:07.280
<v Speaker 2>And I think that Belle could really speak to that.

0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:10.520
<v Speaker 1>I think Belle could really speak to that. And I

0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:16.000
<v Speaker 1>just want, here's my casting for bell at the opening ceremony.

0:11:17.559 --> 0:11:20.200
<v Speaker 1>And I know she's not French. Kirsten Dunst.

0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:22.560
<v Speaker 2>We've seen her play Marion and out, we've seen her

0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:23.440
<v Speaker 2>play French.

0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:27.840
<v Speaker 1>And that's enough. So that's my prediction so far. Let's

0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:30.880
<v Speaker 1>just keep bouncing back and forth anything anything you are

0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:32.079
<v Speaker 1>hoping to see your predictacy.

0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:36.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know, I feel like if we're to

0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 2>think about our great moments in history when it comes

0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:41.599
<v Speaker 2>to opening ceremonies, I of course think of something I

0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:43.760
<v Speaker 2>can recently remember, which was the Spice Girls coming out

0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:44.199
<v Speaker 2>in London.

0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:48.240
<v Speaker 1>That was closing closing, Wow.

0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, well, then then retract all of what I said

0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:53.040
<v Speaker 2>and pretend I said it on a later episode that

0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:55.679
<v Speaker 2>covers the closing ceremony. In fact, we'll just copy paste it.

0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:58.360
<v Speaker 2>When the Spice Girls came out in London, like in

0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:02.280
<v Speaker 2>all truth here, that was a moment in culture for me.

0:12:02.559 --> 0:12:05.679
<v Speaker 2>It really made me happy when they wrote out on

0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:08.200
<v Speaker 2>the cars and they were on top of the cars

0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:10.600
<v Speaker 2>and they sang Spice Up Your Life and they came

0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:14.719
<v Speaker 2>out and like themed you know, London town cars and

0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:18.400
<v Speaker 2>ate it up. So I'm thinking, what's the Paris version

0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:19.640
<v Speaker 2>of the Spice Girls.

0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:20.520
<v Speaker 1>At Lily Collins?

0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Lily Collins, Lily Collins and.

0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:26.640
<v Speaker 1>The cast of Emily in Paris, that is the French equivalent.

0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:29.160
<v Speaker 2>That will have to be what we get?

0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Or what if Carrie and the Russian Night in Paris?

0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:38.120
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, right Petrov burst of Kov It's burst

0:12:38.200 --> 0:12:38.480
<v Speaker 1>of CoV.

0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yes, Alexander Petrowski, Oh.

0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:46.199
<v Speaker 1>My god, that would be so cool. I think I

0:12:46.320 --> 0:12:50.000
<v Speaker 1>want to see Gaga singing Le'Veon Rose.

0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:53.640
<v Speaker 2>I would love Gaga in any capacity. I don't know.

0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:56.920
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you know what, joker, folio, do you know what? Wait?

0:12:57.040 --> 0:13:00.240
<v Speaker 2>Are we onto something here? Could Gaga appear at the Olympic.

0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:02.920
<v Speaker 1>As Harley Quinn, whoa.

0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:05.920
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't get more French.

0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:07.520
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't get more French than that?

0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:10.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't think we're ready for. How scary, joke erfolio,

0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:12.439
<v Speaker 2>do it is going to be? Think about Gaga unleash

0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:14.360
<v Speaker 2>musically and psychotically.

0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:18.959
<v Speaker 1>We can't talk about the Olympics for more than like

0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:20.040
<v Speaker 1>two minutes.

0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:26.800
<v Speaker 2>They knew what they were getting. And look, people love

0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:29.760
<v Speaker 2>the podcast as a cultural institution. Everyone's talking about it.

0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:34.800
<v Speaker 2>It's on everyone's lips. Should we talk about some great

0:13:34.840 --> 0:13:38.400
<v Speaker 2>moments in Olympic opening ceremony history. I mean there's been

0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:38.920
<v Speaker 2>quite a bit.

0:13:39.240 --> 0:13:43.199
<v Speaker 1>There's been quite a bit, I would say, So let's

0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:46.120
<v Speaker 1>just start off with I remember when I where I

0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:49.720
<v Speaker 1>was and how I felt when eight Asian Olympics opening

0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:53.160
<v Speaker 1>ceremony happened. Yeah, that was a wild one. They had

0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:54.520
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and eight of everything. So they had two

0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:56.200
<v Speaker 1>thousand and eight drummers in the beginning, they had two

0:13:56.200 --> 0:13:58.679
<v Speaker 1>thousand and eight tiles in this printing press where it

0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:01.880
<v Speaker 1>was actual people on like pushing each It wasn't like

0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:06.760
<v Speaker 1>a machine. It was all like manual labor, just on

0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:10.280
<v Speaker 1>a grandeur on a scale level like that is I

0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:12.600
<v Speaker 1>think one of the more impressive.

0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:14.160
<v Speaker 2>Ones absolutely, That was.

0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Sarah Brighton, I think singing a song with a Chinese singer.

0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:22.760
<v Speaker 1>They sang something, but that's when I was like, that's

0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:27.120
<v Speaker 1>Sarah Brightman, like like Phantom of the Opera. Wow, the

0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:28.600
<v Speaker 1>original Christine.

0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:31.400
<v Speaker 2>Wow came out and carried at the Beijing Olympics opening ceremony.

0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:34.080
<v Speaker 1>For whatever reason she was in Beijing. Our Christine was

0:14:34.120 --> 0:14:34.560
<v Speaker 1>in Beijing.

0:14:34.760 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 2>I get it, though, so I guess Beijing kind of

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:37.720
<v Speaker 2>went all out.

0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:41.080
<v Speaker 1>They went very extra, They went extra absolutely.

0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Do you remember the Queen Elizabeth the second skit with

0:14:43.520 --> 0:14:46.200
<v Speaker 2>James Bond aka Daniel Craig at the twenty twelve London

0:14:46.240 --> 0:14:49.400
<v Speaker 2>Olympics opening ceremony, because a queen look alike fully jumped

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:52.880
<v Speaker 2>out of a plane and the actual queen arrived wearing

0:14:52.960 --> 0:14:55.720
<v Speaker 2>the same peach color dress. She actually was down to

0:14:55.800 --> 0:14:58.640
<v Speaker 2>clown that Queen Elizabeth. I think we're not giving her

0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.720
<v Speaker 2>enough credit for how she held together with the royal

0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:04.000
<v Speaker 2>family because Loki look at them now, and that's not

0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:06.600
<v Speaker 2>slander because we're talking about the Paris Olympics. This isn't

0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:09.360
<v Speaker 2>the London Olympics, where I'm sure we'd have way more decorum.

0:15:09.440 --> 0:15:13.760
<v Speaker 2>Maybe maybe not. But she also had a sense of humor.

0:15:14.840 --> 0:15:17.280
<v Speaker 1>She had a sense of humor. Where's the Crown episode

0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:19.960
<v Speaker 1>on that? About how funny she was, well, not only

0:15:20.000 --> 0:15:22.640
<v Speaker 1>about how funny she was, but also about the opening ceremony.

0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:23.200
<v Speaker 2>Hmm.

0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:29.880
<v Speaker 1>I want her meeting Daniel them discussing, yeah, what it's

0:15:29.920 --> 0:15:31.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna be like on the day I just want to

0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:33.840
<v Speaker 1>hear Queen Elizabeth the iond say on.

0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:37.360
<v Speaker 3>The day, I'll do it on the day.

0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:40.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why I'm talking, Like, is that Adele,

0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:41.520
<v Speaker 2>I'll do it on the day.

0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:42.400
<v Speaker 1>That's good.

0:15:42.760 --> 0:15:43.880
<v Speaker 2>On the day. You'll be better.

0:15:44.360 --> 0:15:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Now you have an Adele and a ray. Now that

0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:48.720
<v Speaker 1>ray is becoming more of a more, more of a.

0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:53.840
<v Speaker 2>Ray, more like like ray less bothered than a doe.

0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:57.120
<v Speaker 2>Day was up here, raise more down here.

0:15:57.240 --> 0:16:03.200
<v Speaker 1>Raise down here. I can't believe I'm snl. That's what

0:16:03.320 --> 0:16:03.760
<v Speaker 1>she said to me.

0:16:04.480 --> 0:16:07.760
<v Speaker 2>She said, it's so cute, it's amazing.

0:16:08.080 --> 0:16:09.560
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe I'm amazing.

0:16:09.880 --> 0:16:17.240
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe I'm sn ol so amazing. I've never

0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:21.160
<v Speaker 2>dreamed this spake you were when I was a young girl,

0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:24.520
<v Speaker 2>I never thought I could dream this spike.

0:16:25.040 --> 0:16:28.760
<v Speaker 1>You're so good at accents. I'm getting a horny from you.

0:16:30.520 --> 0:16:33.400
<v Speaker 2>Don't don't don't horny in the middle of the day,

0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:37.080
<v Speaker 2>getting horny, because then the whole day goes. When you're

0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:40.560
<v Speaker 2>getting horny too early, honey, honey, then you're you're just

0:16:40.680 --> 0:16:45.680
<v Speaker 2>empty the rest of the day. Did they tell us

0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:48.600
<v Speaker 2>at the when we started recording this, like, hey, don't curse.

0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:51.960
<v Speaker 1>I I don't think they did, and I think it's okay.

0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:54.400
<v Speaker 1>I think they did say that they might bleep us.

0:17:12.680 --> 0:17:14.879
<v Speaker 1>This is a celebration of linear television.

0:17:15.119 --> 0:17:17.359
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, this is so old school. This is bringing

0:17:17.400 --> 0:17:18.680
<v Speaker 2>TV back down.

<v Speaker 1>The winner was Peacock. Now, the ninety six Atlanta Games,

0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't totally keyed to the Olympics at this very

0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:52.160
<v Speaker 1>young age. I must have been five or six years old.

0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:53.080
<v Speaker 2>We were young.

0:17:53.359 --> 0:17:56.439
<v Speaker 1>We were young. But I have seen images of these.

0:17:56.560 --> 0:18:02.280
<v Speaker 2>Hot silhouettes, gorgeous hot silhouet to the Atlanta Olympics opening

0:18:02.359 --> 0:18:06.680
<v Speaker 2>ceremony was certainly giving, and especially to note we would

0:18:06.720 --> 0:18:08.920
<v Speaker 2>have enjoyed this very much because if you bring out

0:18:08.920 --> 0:18:12.480
<v Speaker 2>Gladys Knight singing Georgia on my Mind now today I'm

0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:17.199
<v Speaker 2>on my feet screaming the word respect and six year

0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:19.639
<v Speaker 2>old me, I don't think could really receive that and

0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:24.520
<v Speaker 2>could maybe identify with Georgia on my Mind. But adult me,

0:18:24.840 --> 0:18:26.840
<v Speaker 2>who in a word? Who in a word?

0:18:26.920 --> 0:18:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Who in a word? I would have signed up to

0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:31.520
<v Speaker 1>be a pip mm hmm.

0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:38.320
<v Speaker 2>Leave on the mind the train Georgia.

0:18:39.520 --> 0:18:39.720
<v Speaker 3>Rain.

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:44.320
<v Speaker 2>That's a great song. That's a great tune, almost as

0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:45.440
<v Speaker 2>good as Great Balls of Fire.

0:18:47.119 --> 0:18:49.359
<v Speaker 1>The second time mentioning Great Balls of Fire on this

0:18:49.440 --> 0:18:55.199
<v Speaker 1>podcast amazing. The two thousand Sydney Olympics. I really really loved.

0:18:55.840 --> 0:18:58.360
<v Speaker 1>This was the first opening ceremonies that I sat down.

0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:02.040
<v Speaker 2>For that you can really remember in your heart in lluins.

0:19:02.200 --> 0:19:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I just remember when all the nations would come

0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:06.520
<v Speaker 1>out with their flags, just feeling an immense and this

0:19:06.640 --> 0:19:09.520
<v Speaker 1>is what the Olympics give. Yeah, you really see the

0:19:09.720 --> 0:19:12.800
<v Speaker 1>breath of the world. You see all different kinds of people.

0:19:13.880 --> 0:19:16.760
<v Speaker 2>I could cry. You see the breath of the world

0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:19.800
<v Speaker 2>b R E A D H. And you also see

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:22.200
<v Speaker 2>the breath of the world. The breath because you see

0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:24.080
<v Speaker 2>them living in such pride.

0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:26.760
<v Speaker 1>And you see the bread of the world because I

0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:28.560
<v Speaker 1>want to take a bite off.

0:19:28.480 --> 0:19:31.960
<v Speaker 2>Of that period. And no matter who it is, no

0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:35.639
<v Speaker 2>matter who, that's where we're at. Remember the phrase playing

0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.720
<v Speaker 2>hard to get? Yeah, I forgot what that phrase even means.

0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Honey. When I when I watched the Sydney Olympic opening ceremony,

0:19:41.800 --> 0:19:45.119
<v Speaker 1>I said, what is that phrase? I don't know her?

0:19:45.280 --> 0:19:48.119
<v Speaker 2>I said, what, I don't know her? What do you

0:19:48.160 --> 0:19:50.399
<v Speaker 2>feel about North and South Korea marching together in the

0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:53.080
<v Speaker 2>opening ceremony of the two thousand Sydney Olympics behind a

0:19:53.160 --> 0:19:57.200
<v Speaker 2>flag depicting a unified Korean peninsula? That kind of two

0:19:57.240 --> 0:20:01.440
<v Speaker 2>words for me, fat chance, two words for me false, hope,

0:20:01.680 --> 0:20:05.680
<v Speaker 2>much that's three. But don't don't dangle that in front

0:20:05.680 --> 0:20:08.480
<v Speaker 2>of us. It's giving me announcing to the world via

0:20:08.560 --> 0:20:12.879
<v Speaker 2>my aim away message Varsity Chicks coming summer two thousand

0:20:12.880 --> 0:20:17.840
<v Speaker 2>and four. Yeah, it's just it's not gonna happen. It

0:20:17.880 --> 0:20:22.560
<v Speaker 2>ain't gonna happen. It's giving. When no Mary Poppins ride

0:20:22.600 --> 0:20:29.000
<v Speaker 2>in Epcot, it's exactly that. It's literally just as hurtful.

0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:34.159
<v Speaker 2>We're so excited for Dark Universe at Universal, at the

0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:38.880

0:20:58.119 --> 0:20:59.520
<v Speaker 2>that this is going to be number one.

0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember the two thousand and four Athens Olympics

0:21:01.720 --> 0:21:09.119
<v Speaker 1>opening ceremony, giant cycladic head rising from the flooded stadium floor,

0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:15.720
<v Speaker 1>breaks apart, falls into the water. It represents what the

0:21:15.840 --> 0:21:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Greek islands. Yeah, we're talking archipelago legends.

0:21:21.320 --> 0:21:23.560
<v Speaker 2>It's just, you know, to be honest with you, Bowen,

0:21:23.680 --> 0:21:26.680
<v Speaker 2>this is a tough Olympics for me, really, and also

0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:29.520
<v Speaker 2>just the entire Olympics actually is hard for me. Like

0:21:29.600 --> 0:21:31.840
<v Speaker 2>this whole thing has been very traumatizing to do this

0:21:31.960 --> 0:21:34.399
<v Speaker 2>podcast so far because as we know, the Olympics has

0:21:34.400 --> 0:21:37.400
<v Speaker 2>its roots in Greece, and I felt that I had

0:21:37.440 --> 0:21:39.560
<v Speaker 2>my roots in Greece, and then I did a twenty

0:21:39.640 --> 0:21:43.720
<v Speaker 2>three in me that, let's just say, I was sorely mistaken.

0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:46.439
<v Speaker 2>So I think I watched this as a fourteen year

0:21:46.440 --> 0:21:49.080
<v Speaker 2>old person, newly excited about the Olympics and the Games

0:21:49.119 --> 0:21:52.119
<v Speaker 2>and the whole pumping circumstance, thinking Wow, they're in my homeland,

0:21:52.480 --> 0:21:55.240
<v Speaker 2>and to know that I was wrong. No, man, I

0:21:55.240 --> 0:21:57.720
<v Speaker 2>don't know if I'll ever get over it, Matt, because

0:21:57.720 --> 0:21:58.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm Turkish as hell.

0:21:59.040 --> 0:22:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, this is what I was to say, is that

0:22:01.080 --> 0:22:03.600
<v Speaker 1>the thing about twenty three in Me and these ancestry

0:22:03.680 --> 0:22:09.440
<v Speaker 1>things is like Turkey. It's like Turkey, Greece. It's just

0:22:09.520 --> 0:22:12.760
<v Speaker 1>giving Mediterranean. You are of that part of the world.

0:22:12.920 --> 0:22:18.640
<v Speaker 1>You are from the Middle Earth, from Mediterra. You are

0:22:19.800 --> 0:22:23.639
<v Speaker 1>Greek down you if you were raised Greek with a

0:22:23.760 --> 0:22:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Greek identity, don't let a little test, a little percentage

0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:30.800
<v Speaker 1>on a little slip of paper or a little website

0:22:30.880 --> 0:22:31.919
<v Speaker 1>tell you anything different.

0:22:32.240 --> 0:22:34.080
<v Speaker 2>I can't be sad about who I am and who

0:22:34.119 --> 0:22:35.560
<v Speaker 2>I ended up being, you know what I mean, even

0:22:35.600 --> 0:22:37.680
<v Speaker 2>if I thought it was something different. I still ended

0:22:37.760 --> 0:22:39.760
<v Speaker 2>up being someone who genetically was made up of the

0:22:39.800 --> 0:22:41.520
<v Speaker 2>stuff that could cause me to run a four to

0:22:41.560 --> 0:22:43.720
<v Speaker 2>thirty six mile in the sixteen hundred meters when I

0:22:43.800 --> 0:22:47.680
<v Speaker 2>was but fifteen years old. Woow. So I guess I

0:22:47.760 --> 0:22:51.440
<v Speaker 2>can't have regrets genetically, but it stings.

0:22:51.920 --> 0:22:54.720
<v Speaker 1>I hope you can think back on the Athens Olympics

0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:57.119
<v Speaker 1>and feel that same pride you felt when you were

0:22:57.200 --> 0:22:58.400
<v Speaker 1>fourteen thirteen years old.

0:22:58.680 --> 0:23:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes boe, I wish I had never spit four times

0:23:01.600 --> 0:23:04.080
<v Speaker 2>into that tube. And I don't just say that about this.

0:23:04.960 --> 0:23:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh what now? What could that mean?

0:23:10.680 --> 0:23:14.480
<v Speaker 2>You know that classic and nuendo, the tube, the twobe oh,

0:23:14.560 --> 0:23:17.440
<v Speaker 2>the twenty twenty Tokyo Olympics. There was some drama around

0:23:17.480 --> 0:23:20.080
<v Speaker 2>this year, twenty twenty, But I mean, at least what

0:23:20.200 --> 0:23:23.200
<v Speaker 2>happened in performers. At least we had human performers bringing

0:23:23.240 --> 0:23:27.280
<v Speaker 2>sport pictograms to life. What happened in twenty.

0:23:26.880 --> 0:23:29.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, no, I now I remember what happened in

0:23:29.359 --> 0:23:31.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty, But you're right, at least we had humans

0:23:32.400 --> 0:23:35.960
<v Speaker 1>bringing sport pictrograms to life at the twenty twenty Tokyo Olympics.

0:23:36.760 --> 0:23:38.479
<v Speaker 2>You know, I was watching the weakest link the other

0:23:38.560 --> 0:23:41.719
<v Speaker 2>day with my parents because it was on television program

0:23:42.119 --> 0:23:45.639
<v Speaker 2>and one of the questions was the twenty twenty Tokyo

0:23:45.680 --> 0:23:48.680
<v Speaker 2>Olympics was held in what year? And when he said

0:23:48.680 --> 0:23:51.280
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty one, I jumped out of my seat, like idiot,

0:23:51.560 --> 0:23:53.200
<v Speaker 2>And then she was like, correct, and I was like

0:23:53.720 --> 0:23:55.960
<v Speaker 2>and then I remembered I was the idiot for having

0:23:56.040 --> 0:24:00.159
<v Speaker 2>completely erased the coronavirus pandemic from existence. Of course it

0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:01.320
<v Speaker 2>took place in twenty twenty one.

0:24:01.359 --> 0:24:03.160
<v Speaker 1>It had to be delayed, so it's kind of nice

0:24:03.200 --> 0:24:05.520
<v Speaker 1>that we're getting it only three years after the last

0:24:05.600 --> 0:24:06.879
<v Speaker 1>one in the summertime.

0:24:07.240 --> 0:24:09.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's kind of nice. Yeah.

0:24:10.880 --> 0:24:16.040
<v Speaker 1>And remember the twenty sixteen Rio Games Gizelle strutting her

0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:19.080
<v Speaker 1>stuff to girl from Apanima. Oh yeah, kind of a

0:24:19.240 --> 0:24:22.200
<v Speaker 1>weird one. I would say that was a weird one.

0:24:22.760 --> 0:24:25.480
<v Speaker 2>You know what, though, the weirder the better. I love

0:24:25.560 --> 0:24:27.760
<v Speaker 2>that they were like, you know, who should represent us

0:24:27.760 --> 0:24:30.520
<v Speaker 2>at the Olympics, Gisell. I think it's the most chaotic

0:24:31.000 --> 0:24:33.440
<v Speaker 2>and yet cheek choice we've spoken about.

0:24:33.920 --> 0:24:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I just that is that, But that's like the

0:24:38.760 --> 0:24:41.520
<v Speaker 1>main image that we remember, which is so interesting to me.

0:24:42.160 --> 0:24:46.399
<v Speaker 1>Why it's weird, It's weird. Oh we have to just

0:24:46.520 --> 0:24:50.080
<v Speaker 1>mention going back to Athens, b York, Oh yeah, say

0:24:50.119 --> 0:24:53.160
<v Speaker 1>her name b York singing and then having her whole

0:24:53.240 --> 0:24:56.600
<v Speaker 1>dress on furl to cover the entire floor of the stadium.

0:24:57.000 --> 0:24:59.040
<v Speaker 1>That is, I'm sorry to say, and they're gonna bleet me.

0:25:00.680 --> 0:25:05.040
<v Speaker 2>Yep. She is an Olympic type of performer, Like you

0:25:05.280 --> 0:25:10.919
<v Speaker 2>want someone who's gonna give the global impact that can

0:25:11.000 --> 0:25:13.240
<v Speaker 2>only be delivered by an artist like York.

0:25:13.520 --> 0:25:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Who do you think that artist would be for Paris?

0:25:16.040 --> 0:25:19.080
<v Speaker 1>As we go into tomorrow, as we wait with baited breath,

0:25:19.119 --> 0:25:21.080
<v Speaker 1>with the Parisis, I have I have a pitch.

0:25:21.400 --> 0:25:23.639
<v Speaker 2>You go because we said Gaga, But I feel like

0:25:23.720 --> 0:25:25.199
<v Speaker 2>now it's too good to be true. It makes too

0:25:25.280 --> 0:25:25.760
<v Speaker 2>much sense.

0:25:26.440 --> 0:25:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Enya, Oh, I think Enya could come out of you know,

0:25:30.240 --> 0:25:31.480
<v Speaker 1>her break that she's taken.

0:25:31.600 --> 0:25:33.320
<v Speaker 2>I think, you know, I jumped into my mind. What

0:25:33.440 --> 0:25:34.320
<v Speaker 2>did come to my mind?

0:25:35.320 --> 0:25:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Selene?

0:25:36.520 --> 0:25:38.320
<v Speaker 2>Wouldn't that be a major mode?

0:25:38.320 --> 0:25:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, we would all let's just call it there,

0:25:43.520 --> 0:25:46.240
<v Speaker 1>like we don't have to do anything else in civilization.

0:25:46.800 --> 0:25:49.119
<v Speaker 1>Selene could come out and just do whatever it is

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:51.760
<v Speaker 1>she wanted. But then I was like, oh is that dumb?

0:25:51.840 --> 0:25:54.800
<v Speaker 1>Because She's French Canadian, but like, I still think Paris

0:25:55.160 --> 0:25:57.959
<v Speaker 1>would welcome Celine Dijon with open arms as an international

0:25:58.240 --> 0:26:01.280
<v Speaker 1>icon and what would be more hopeful than seeing her

0:26:01.320 --> 0:26:04.520
<v Speaker 1>go up there and like, no, Selena her space again.

0:26:04.760 --> 0:26:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Selene has represented other countries in the past, since the beginning,

0:26:08.119 --> 0:26:09.479
<v Speaker 1>since Eurovision.

0:26:09.040 --> 0:26:11.000
<v Speaker 2>She's since zero Vision. You're right about that, she.

0:26:11.119 --> 0:26:15.239
<v Speaker 1>Was for Switzerland. There is something French about her.

0:26:15.320 --> 0:26:17.399
<v Speaker 2>No matter what, I think this is the only answer

0:26:17.560 --> 0:26:19.800
<v Speaker 2>not to set an expectation that will disappoint us because

0:26:19.840 --> 0:26:22.359
<v Speaker 2>she is still getting well. But that would be pretty

0:26:22.480 --> 0:26:25.520
<v Speaker 2>amazing in a real way and not in a silly

0:26:25.600 --> 0:26:27.719
<v Speaker 2>way like we've been talking on the rest of this episode.

0:26:27.760 --> 0:26:30.840
<v Speaker 2>Now we've been talking in a very silly manner. I

0:26:30.960 --> 0:26:35.040
<v Speaker 2>think we have Let's get serious and let's give out

0:26:35.080 --> 0:26:39.320
<v Speaker 2>our medals. Let's do gold, silver and bronze to some

0:26:39.440 --> 0:26:43.200
<v Speaker 2>of these opening ceremonies that we just listed. I think

0:26:43.280 --> 0:26:45.960
<v Speaker 2>we might be in conflict here because I do believe

0:26:46.040 --> 0:26:49.200
<v Speaker 2>that Giselle Bunchen is a medalist. Here, I'm okay to

0:26:49.240 --> 0:26:51.560
<v Speaker 2>give her the bronze medal, just like they've probably got

0:26:51.640 --> 0:26:55.240
<v Speaker 2>bronze before the event that one, because guess what, even

0:26:55.320 --> 0:26:59.560
<v Speaker 2>Giselle doesn't wake up looking like she's ready for the runway.

0:26:59.640 --> 0:27:01.280
<v Speaker 2>I want all the women out there to know she

0:27:01.440 --> 0:27:04.359
<v Speaker 2>doesn't just wake up looking like that. Okay, she gets

0:27:04.400 --> 0:27:06.040
<v Speaker 2>a lot of help and the team that got her

0:27:06.119 --> 0:27:09.960
<v Speaker 2>ready for events like sure, the twenty sixteen Rio Olympics

0:27:10.000 --> 0:27:13.919
<v Speaker 2>opening ceremony, but you could too, you could too.

0:27:14.080 --> 0:27:18.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, we'll give it that. On Metal, I'm gonna

0:27:18.280 --> 0:27:22.760
<v Speaker 1>give the silver to I think Sydney doesn't get a

0:27:22.840 --> 0:27:25.399
<v Speaker 1>medal because of that North Korean moment, because of that

0:27:25.520 --> 0:27:30.040
<v Speaker 1>Korea unified Korea moment that's locked, that was like teasing

0:27:30.440 --> 0:27:33.280
<v Speaker 1>something that was never going to happen. I'm going to

0:27:33.359 --> 0:27:37.639
<v Speaker 1>give silver to Athens, okay, because guess what. It is

0:27:37.720 --> 0:27:40.200
<v Speaker 1>a huge part of your journey of the self to

0:27:40.320 --> 0:27:44.320
<v Speaker 1>reconnect with your Greek culture. That is that will always

0:27:44.359 --> 0:27:44.760
<v Speaker 1>be with you.

0:27:45.600 --> 0:27:48.520
<v Speaker 2>And I can appreciate the you know what they were

0:27:48.520 --> 0:27:51.240
<v Speaker 2>doing there with the cycladic head rising from the flooded

0:27:51.280 --> 0:27:53.760
<v Speaker 2>stadium floor which ultimately broke apart, and piece of stone

0:27:53.760 --> 0:27:55.480
<v Speaker 2>in the water representing the Greek islands. I think that's

0:27:55.520 --> 0:27:56.879
<v Speaker 2>really I get that.

0:27:57.480 --> 0:27:57.920
<v Speaker 1>I get that.

0:27:58.560 --> 0:28:04.280
<v Speaker 2>Definitely gold for me. The humor of Queen Elizabeth jumping

0:28:04.320 --> 0:28:07.240
<v Speaker 2>out of a plane, human arriving in a James Bond

0:28:07.280 --> 0:28:10.639
<v Speaker 2>skit to me that just like you, just like me,

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:13.040
<v Speaker 2>just like Ariano. Mattox back in the day takes sketch

0:28:13.119 --> 0:28:15.760
<v Speaker 2>comedy very seriously in a way that I think does

0:28:15.840 --> 0:28:16.960
<v Speaker 2>belong on a world stage.

0:28:17.119 --> 0:28:19.720
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, and that's why we are happy to give the

0:28:19.760 --> 0:28:23.280
<v Speaker 1>gold medal to the London twenty twelve Olympics opening ceremonies.

0:28:25.800 --> 0:28:28.440
<v Speaker 2>But in any final words that lead us into what

0:28:28.560 --> 0:28:33.119
<v Speaker 2>is going to be surely an exciting and really moving

0:28:33.359 --> 0:28:34.919
