00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 1: What that means is we are your culture consultants. We

Speaker 1: are out here to improve culture. We're here to heighten culture.

8
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 1: We're here to talk about the big cultural events that

9
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 1: you see happening on your television screens, on your laptops,

10
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 1: on your mobile phones, on so many we're in a

11
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: three screen world. Yeah, let me tell you. Let me

12
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: tell you. And look, um Matt put this very eloquently,

13
00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 1: uh a few moments ago, but off the off the rack,

14
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: he said, we're going to attack culture. We're going to

15
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: improve culture, and we're going to irrigate what we're this

16
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: attack on your sentences right now. What this is is

17
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: Matt and Bowen's Last Cultures Podcast. What we're doing is

18
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: we're talking about big things that you've seen, like the Grammys,

19
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 1: the Oscar Bowl, super Bowl, maybe some debates happening election season.

20
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: We're talking about big big, big gass events that you're

21
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: all talking about, we're talking about them too. And let

22
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: me tell you, we've got notes. We've got notes, honey,

23
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:34,360
Speaker 1: We've got some feedback that is constructive and sometimes destructive. Absolutely, honey.

24
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: We are not limiting this to events either. We are

25
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: going after some cultural institutions like today, We're really coming

26
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: for the music industry, honey. The music industry is a monolith,

27
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: and we're not afraid. I'm not afraid to speak truth

28
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 1: to power. I'm gonna speak truth to power. And in

29
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: this case, I guess the power is every performer that's

30
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: that dared step on that stage. Where was the g

31
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: the Staples Center? Okay, that's you know, that's capitalism right there. Capitalist.

32
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: You know what, I think it's getting a little confused.

33
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: I think big I think big music is in the hand,

34
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: is in the pocket of Big Staples. Absolutely, Big Staples

35
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: is really what needs to come crashing down. Honey. You're

36
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: talking about a revolution. This is a revolution. I'm talking

37
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: about a staple list America. Absolutely, I'm talking we go

38
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: totally paperless. I'm talking about that was easy, not even

39
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 1: being a sentence that's acceptable in our on our society

40
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: and our culture. Yere, I say, I think that what

41
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: we're trying to do here with this really movement. But

42
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: that is less culture is this is we're just trying

43
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: to bring our expertise because we are cultural experts. We

44
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: are experts. Could we back that up? Not now? Not? Now?

45
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: You know what? This isn't the time for credentials. This

46
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: is the time for real actionable talk. And look, you

47
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,559
Speaker 1: know we're going to apply our very own signature, um

48
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: Si manature uh spin on new criticism, new critique, newcrypt

49
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: onto cultural relics. We did start comment culture, comment culture.

50
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: A lot of people think that American Idol started comment culture.

51
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: Listen for those of you who don't know what that

52
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 1: combination of words is, comment culture is. We're steeped in

53
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: it today, but this is just a label for it.

54
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: That is very apt because everyone thinks they have something

55
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,239
Speaker 1: to say. Yeah, everyone thinks they have something to say,

56
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: and you know what, they don't. They don't, but we do.

57
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: We do what qualifies us stuff I'm gonna say and

58
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 1: be heard later later, later, later, But first, let me

59
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: tell you something. Okay, let me tell you where. Let

60
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: me tell you something, honey, about what we're dressed like

61
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: right now, honey, we are rocking some hats, some brim

62
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: some brim hats your studio for your nerves. And that's

63
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 1: how you create culture. Okay, you make you take a

64
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: big choice, and then you make it work. No one

65
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: else to make these hats work. Lesson but again lesson

66
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: two seven the less cultu resd us. You make a

67
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: big choice, make a big choice, you make it work.

68
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: You make it work. Costume is culture, costume sculpture absolutely, guys.

69
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: I also want to point out that a big part

70
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: of Last Culture Race thus and a big part of

71
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: you know, these cultural events, we're talking about merch merch

72
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,479
Speaker 1: al right, by the end of every episode of Last

73
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: Culture Race says we're going to have an exclusive merchandise item,

74
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: item that you can purchase. That's that's how you become

75
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: a part of culture. Is commerce commerce commerce. And listen,

76
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: we talked about staples earlier being you know, this fount

77
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 1: of capitalism. We are doing this on a small business,

78
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: grassroots scale. These items are only going to be um,

79
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: They're only gonna be five or less or less depending

80
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: on the item. Thinking. Yeah, because sometimes we let's just say,

81
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: sometimes we don't even know what the item is exactly right.

82
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: Honest to god, we don't know what this first piece

83
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: of merchancy, but that's part of creating. Culture is part

84
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 1: of creating and by the end of this podcast episode today, yes,

85
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: you will have a Grammy related piece of merch that

86
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: you you the last Culture says, listener can buy, yes,

87
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: and you can wear it. You could maybe listen to it.

88
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: Who knows, we don't. You can hold your beer in

89
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: it if it's a couzy. If you know what, if

90
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: it's a couzy, you could hold your beer in it

91
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: and guess what it would keep your beer a little

92
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: bit colder than it would have been. Exactly it would

93
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: It would insulate because that's what a cozy does. That's

94
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: what a couzy does. That's what culture does for you.

95
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 1: Is it's it's keeps a cold, pragmatic keeps a cold.

96
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: Honey less than two seven keeps it cold, keeps it

97
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: And look, we have to emphasize the limited inventory, the

98
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: limited stock. These are collectible items, just like any piece

99
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: of culture. It is a rare honey. Culture is rare.

100
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 1: It's hard to come by. I just want to say,

101
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: I just want to say, you know, I think a

102
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: lot of people are going to be listening to this

103
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: and saying, is this negative? No, honey, no, because we've

104
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: earned our spot. How do we earn it later? Later?

105
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: But we are speaking with authority here, and I want

106
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,679
Speaker 1: to say again today's episode, we're coming for the music

107
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 1: industry because we saw it in full display with the

108
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: Grammy Awards. We've now had a few weeks to digest

109
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: these Grammys. Honey, let's get into it. Let's get into

110
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: it right now. So the main event and every episode

111
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna be telling a main event, our main event,

112
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: annual Grammy Awards. Now, Bond, we can tell us a

113
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: little bit about what the Grammy Awards say they want

114
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 1: to do. What is it? Let's let's look up the

115
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: Grammy Awards. You're gonna look it up. I'm gonna look

116
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 1: it up. I'm gonna pull up the you know, the mission,

117
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: pull up the mission statement of the Grammy Awards, because

118
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: I want to know, is it to honor excellence in music?

119
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: Because we could debate that. We'll get this, man, Okay,

120
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: tell me this is this is I'm reading off of

121
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:55,559
Speaker 1: this Wikipedia article. Thank you. A Grammy Award originally called

122
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: a Gramophone Award. All right, well, we're already that's huge

123
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: that you have to think of a good name for

124
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: what you're what what you're given out America is not

125
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: going to be able to say the word grammophone. No,

126
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: not in Middle America. They can't say grandmophone. I don't know.

127
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: We're already bastardizing art for the sake of what accessibility.

128
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: So you would say that you would prefer I would

129
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: love to have some authenticity to this. I think we've

130
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 1: lost that over the years. Okay, I guess I have

131
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: a counterpoint here. Please. I think grammy, I think A.

132
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: It's easier to say, and I do want everyone to

133
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: be included in culture. And I think b it reminds

134
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: me of my grandmother culture. Oh well, that's very sweet.

135
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: Gives me a warm thought. Did your grandmother like music?

136
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: She likes music. She's with us, both of them are.

137
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: I don't know what she likes. Actually, I've never I never.

138
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what her type of music that she

139
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: likes is, but I'm sure she enjoys it. I think

140
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: your grandmother is a cipher, she's a zero. I would

141
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: say she doesn't like hip hop. Okay, well, she should

142
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: open her mind because we're going to get to this later.

143
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: But there were some seminal hip hop performances at the Grammys.

144
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: Oh yes, I mean, i'd say those are the highlights,

145
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: back to back hip hop performances that I think, we're

146
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: just really incredible, astounding. So you know, we got the Grammys. Okay,

147
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: the old term the Gramma face. Shall I read on please? Okay,

148
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: I want to know about what they're striving to write.

149
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: A Grammy is an accolade by the National Academy of

150
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: Recording Arts and Sciences and are an a r a

151
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 1: S of the United States. So this is kind of

152
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: localized to America, although there are many international artists that

153
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: are honored. Many international categories absolutely to recognize outstanding achievement

154
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: in the mainly English language music industry. Okay, wow. The

155
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: annual presentation ceremony features performances by prominent artists and the

156
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 1: presentation of those awards that have a more popular interest. Okay,

157
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 1: so it's you know, so we all are admitting here

158
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: that it's a populist moment, that it's a populist contest,

159
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: and I think that really reads I think so, I

160
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: mean people get up in arms about well, you know what.

161
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,880
Speaker 1: Sometimes sometimes the Awards just are all over the place.

162
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: Last year, you wandered back over pay and who I

163
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: what do we think about that? About Back? He's a scientologist.

164
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 1: I can't get behind that. You know what he is?

165
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: That's that is true, and I cannot get behind that.

166
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Well, I can't get behind that. Beyonce didn't

167
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: win Best Album that album I like. Beyonce did give

168
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 1: out Record of the Years to Bruno Mars Uptown Funk,

169
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 1: which you know what, sure, I'll give it that. It

170
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: was the Record of the year, Yes, but what but

171
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 1: what was your record of the year? What was your

172
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: favorite song of two thousand fifteen? Oh my god, this

173
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: is going to be mind you the rules for the Grammys,

176
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: year that ends on September. Yes, yes, so that's why

177
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: it gets a little weird, like Hello by Adele despite

178
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: you know, being pretty much the song of Yeah, so

186
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,959
Speaker 1: Record of the Year, we have Uptown Funk Really Love

187
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: by D'Angelo and the Vanguard. I love that D'Angelo. I

188
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 1: don't know that song that will be really really good. Um,

189
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: thinking out loud at Sharon, blank space, can't feel my face? Yeah,

190
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 1: I mean for me, it's blank Space. It's blank Space.

191
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: What a great what a perfect pop song? Isn't that?

192
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: Doesn't that suck though? Any like of course we're gonna

193
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: say it's blank Space. It was everywhere. It was everywhere,

194
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 1: And honestly, like it's whatever you think about Taylor, Like

195
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: I'm so hot and I'm so back and forth on Taylor,

196
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: but that song is it's amazing fire. My boyfriend doesn't

197
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 1: like it. He thinks it's basic. I'm like, how could

198
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 1: you think this is basic on any level? And he's

199
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: a musician, so it's like, I don't think compositionally it's

200
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 1: that basic. I think content wise in terms of the lyrics,

201
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty clever. It's very clever. She's got

202
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: she's not even she's like she's always been a pretty

203
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 1: decent lyricist, but like this is something that she felt

204
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: like she had to address, like all these this persona

205
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 1: that's been crafted around her when actually succeeded in taking

206
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: the conversation back, Oh my god, she's What I like

207
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: about it is it's a character based sketch. The sketch

208
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? It feels like And actually

209
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 1: Bowen and I um both write and performed sketch comedy

210
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: here in New York for those of us who don't know, Um,

211
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:08,319
Speaker 1: we create culture, but I sometimes will teach um workshops

212
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:12,439
Speaker 1: on you know, sketch comedy and also sketch comedy music.

213
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: Because Bowen and I are part of a musical sketch

214
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,719
Speaker 1: group called Popularlette. We kind of use pop music songwriting

215
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:22,559
Speaker 1: and sketch comedies culture use culture in that way. Um,

216
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:27,079
Speaker 1: this is like so basically what I'm saying is sometimes

217
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 1: I want to show that song because it almost is

218
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 1: like a comedy song because do you know, it has

219
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: a point of view and it's humorous, like and there's

220
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: an unusual thing, there's an unusual thing, and there's reversals

221
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,559
Speaker 1: and everything reversals. There's a game, there's a game as

222
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: a reserve, there's a reversal, there's a point of view,

223
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: it's all there. What we're saying is, like, you know,

224
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: game and comedy is is an unusual situation and it

225
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: gets played and it gets heightened. And in that song here,

226
00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: I am like you can see me in my bathtub,

227
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: in my dime and I'm beautiful, but there's a crazy

228
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 1: and you still want to come back and get more

229
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: of this. And there was an interview that she did

230
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 1: where she said it was just so far from herself

231
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: that she wanted to write a song based on that character,

232
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: which I think she's very successfully did. And that song

233
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 1: was everywhere, and when that album came out, everyone was

234
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 1: talking about that song. It's great that you weren't talking

235
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: about any other song. It's such a good song. I

236
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: listened to it, honestly, and this is no joke a

237
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: lot twice a day, but one and I well, can

238
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: I tell you, um, I've always been all about wildest dreams.

239
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: Wild dreams. It's on my lullaby playlist when I say asleep, Yeah,

240
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: I fantasized I did want to. So you know what

241
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,319
Speaker 1: this is actually is pretty good because Album of the

242
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: Year did go to Taylor Swift, So that album is

243
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: chock full. That album is chalk full of people. People

00:13:55,040 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 1: getting all up in arms about butter Fly losing um

245
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: And yeah, we talked about how it's populist, you know

246
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like what do you expect and you

247
00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: gotta play the game a little bit, like I feel

248
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 1: like you can't expect too much from this shore And

249
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: we'll talk about Kendrick later because he performed and it

250
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: was unbelievable, unbelievable. But that album is and I said

251
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: this to you earlier today, Good Kid Mad City like

252
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 1: already like like on its own masterpiece, and it came

253
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: out so early, like in his career, and then like

254
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: following that up with something that he could out of here.

255
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: He could have gone one or two weeks, he could

256
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: have followed up with something that was like a little

257
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: more innocuous or like make a huge statement, and that's

258
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: what he did. And I love that album too. The

259
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 1: lateral move of quality, I'd say same yeah, same quality wise,

260
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 1: Good Kid, Mad City unbelievable to Pipper Waterfly, just as unbelievable,

261
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: just as unbelievable. Um but yeah nine And you know what, Also,

262
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: like last year we talked about how Beyonce I lost

263
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: to back, Like maybe last year they went with the

264
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: artistic choice and everyone was like fuck. So now this

265
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: year they were like they went the commercial route. Also,

266
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: it just seems like sometimes you can't fucking beat her,

267
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: you know what, everywhere, Like she's got the whole music

268
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: industry machine behind her, like she I think she she

269
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: must make the most money for the industry. I think,

270
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I feel like there

271
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: is that thing of like it's why you nominate James

272
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: Cameron at the Oscars. You know what swift is the

273
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:32,840

304
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 1: so then you know, we just we slept on it

305
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 1: and then thank god we slept and I was like,

306
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: we're going to do it, and then this is this

307
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: is a fun story. And then we take an uber

308
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,679
Speaker 1: from Matt's apartment. Well we have the best day before

309
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: that too. We're sucking drinking like the place that was cocktails,

310
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 1: taking Instagram. I'm singing along to the music, getting into it. Like.

311
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,399
Speaker 1: Then we decide we're gonna call an uber, which we

312
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: think would be forty bucks. We think it'll be forty bucks.

313
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,199
Speaker 1: Were like, you know what, it's it's Jersey, it's not

314
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: too far, not city Field, met Life, MetLife. Our driver

315
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: picks us up. He decides to drive and maybe this

316
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 1: is what the apps told him. He decides to drive

317
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 1: through the Arizono Bridge into Staten Island. We drive through

318
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 1: the beautiful suburbs of Staten Island, see it all, see

319
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: it all for about a full hour, and then we

320
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,840
Speaker 1: get we get into Jersey and we get stuck in

321
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: traffic leading up to MetLife because of course everyone's going

322
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 1: within the Tristate area. And then Um, I'm girding my

323
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 1: loins for what the the what the what the fair

324
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: is going to be? I don't get a receipt email

325
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: until the day after because it honestly had a compute

326
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: probably and like, well this is long as ye and

327
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: so then um guys, uh, well for us for the

328
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: sake of transparency. Um, it was a hundred and eighty dollars.

329
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 1: It was insane. It was insane. We I mean, if

330
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: you think, okay, so the tickets were what to Joe,

331
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 1: our engineer, Joe's laughing, our producer engineer, Joe's laughing. It's crazy.

332
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 1: It's insane. It's stupid, so stupid. So I kept saying

333
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 1: to Bone, like do you regret it yet? Do you

334
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: regret it yet? He's like, you know, and then like

335
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 1: post the concert, you will regret I regretting. I think

336
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: now looking back, I don't regret it, do you. I mean,

337
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 1: I think it's it's done a number on my credit

338
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,439
Speaker 1: card debt. Okay, So there you go. This is this

339
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 1: is culture is candid candid lesson lesson five six cultures

340
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: candid culture doesn't hide. I'm not gonna hide. No, I'm

341
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: not gonna hide. Good, I'll reveal some truths on here. Please,

342
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 1: we have to get there. We'll get there, okay, and

343
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 1: then and then real quickly. So what I thought what

344
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: my favorite record of the year was That was not

345
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 1: No It was run Away with Me, Carl. Yeah, probably

346
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: probably if I'm oh man, now, maybe that might be

347
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: mine too. While the streams is pretty up there for me,

348
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,919
Speaker 1: I think Blank Space deserved to take home that award.

349
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 1: But then again, it's like, you're gonna give her everything.

350
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 1: Carly Ray was snubbed. If we're going to talk about snubs,

351
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: we don't really have. We didn't. We didn't build in

352
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,159
Speaker 1: a moment to talk about snubs today. But look, I

353
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 1: mean we can talk about the one Big Snow which

354
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: just called That's an amazing pop album. It just is.

355
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: You know what she did. She took a very right

356
00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: early approach to this and just like purged out two songs. Yeah,

357
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 1: nailed it, and then was like, you know what, I'm

358
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,959
Speaker 1: gonna cherry pick. I'm gonna pick the best ones, and

359
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: that's how you edit, that's how you write. I have

360
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: a good one actually, from what might be my favorite

361
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,679
Speaker 1: song of the year. I was always happy when this

362
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,199
Speaker 1: came on. Love Me like you do. Okay, I really

363
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: like that song. Sure, Like I just pictured myself like

364
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 1: spinning around like you know that Faith Hill song Breathe.

365
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 1: I can hear you breathe with the music video which

366
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 1: was her like on that like desert was that that

367
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: she was on? I would love to read that treatment.

368
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 1: I picture myself spinning around on that in that dress,

369
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 1: sing oh my god, what a great song? Like it?

370
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 1: I love that? And it was in fifty Shades of Great,

371
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: which made that movie sort of tolerable and insane. Plaine

372
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 1: movement moment, the helicopter moment. You and I saw that together,

373
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,199
Speaker 1: And was that the helicopter moment where they played that song? Okay,

374
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 1: there's they're they're in flight in two parts of that movie. Yes,

375
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: there's the helicozer part, which is like too long, and

376
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,360
Speaker 1: then they randomly go fly planes. Where did they fly too?

377
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 1: They fly around? Okay, they just go to He's like,

378
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 1: come on really quickly, this is okay, you know what.

379
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 1: This is a fun story. Matt and I saw fifty

380
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: Shades of Grade. The day came out Valentine's and future

381
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 1: guests of the show and address and a dress in

382
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 1: um the three of us, I think we're all single

383
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 1: at the time. And then we went to go see

384
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 1: to Us on Valentine's Day with in a packed movie Hatter,

385
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 1: and then we thank god we were in a theater

386
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 1: that was willing to laugh, because we just laughed at

387
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 1: everything and it was just so funny and so cheesy.

388
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,720
Speaker 1: And then at one point, about an hour and a

389
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,919
Speaker 1: half into the film, we hear from the middle section

390
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: of the theater, Daddy, I want to go to the bathroom,

391
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:49,639
Speaker 1: and the entire theater was this beautiful, cathartic communal moment

392
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: of everyone just gasping and going there. We couldn't believe.

393
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: And it was, honestly like a scene had just finished

394
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 1: that was like a humiliating section. Like she was like

395
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: Johnson gets whipped something up in a scene and like

396
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: you know, she gets flogged. And then it's like the

397
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: movie doesn't skirt around it. The movie is about that.

398
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: It's an R rated film that this man later on,

399
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: I went to the bathroom after the movie got at

400
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,639
Speaker 1: this saw a man brought his child to Fifty Shades

401
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: of Gray on Valentine Well then and brought up a

402
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 1: good point. Okay, she said, well, I mean the thing

403
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 1: is he wants to go see the movie. He's trying

404
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,439
Speaker 1: to go see it. You know, we don't know what

405
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,120
Speaker 1: it's like to be Maybe he's a single parent. Maybe

406
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 1: he couldn't get someone. And I felt a little bad

407
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 1: about it. And then I was like, uh, no, you

408
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,919
Speaker 1: don't bring your kids. You're a single parent. If you're

409
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 1: a single parent, if let's say, let's for for for

410
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 1: for argument's sake, he's a single parent, do anything else

411
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,880
Speaker 1: with your kid, I would say, yeah, it's a Valentine's

412
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: Day for them too. I would say, let's not scar them.

413
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:57,200
Speaker 1: Let's not yea, they can't possibly grasp the sexual fill

414
00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: in their head with unimaginable question sexual cruelty. Oh my god.

415
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: It was out of control. Hard. It's hard, like like

416
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,239
Speaker 1: it's hard enough explaining B D s M to like

417
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 1: the lay person, I don't get it. Okay, well, then

418
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: I need to understand explained to me. I don't know

419
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: me neither. I couldn't explain to me. It's I can't this.

420
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: This will be like the blinding and leading the blind. Anyway,

421
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe he maybe he really liked the song too. Sure, well,

422
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 1: let's let's get back into the Grammys. Okay, So basically

423
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: that that was my record of the year. Um, it's

424
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: worth talking about how maybe Teller deserved it. She did

425
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: come out and she performed out of the Woods in

426
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: the beginning, and of course she had a very first

427
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 1: thought woods in the background. Too on the nose. You

428
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: know what I say it about that music video that's

429
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 1: going to be used as a teaching tool, um for

430
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 1: being too on the nose. So anyway, she's very hit

431
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: and miss with her music videos, I feel because can

432
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: I tell you blank Space, unbelievable music, wildest dreams I love.

433
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: I know it attracted a share of criticism. I don't

434
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,399
Speaker 1: think that criticism is that okay because I think it

435
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: was depicting a nineteen fifties movie set where you wouldn't

436
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: have a lot of I mean, I think, you know,

437
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: like sure, for the sake of it being now and

438
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: we all know it's taking place now, have some like you,

439
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 1: cast minorities like you, just but I think that might

440
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,440
Speaker 1: have been a case of people looking looking a little

441
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: too hard to be angry about something. I do like

442
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: that music video. It's a good video. Um. You know

443
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,639
Speaker 1: what interesting thing, all the all these videos you've just

444
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: named the same director Joseph Khan. He's really good. He

445
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,160
Speaker 1: worked on a lot of um Brittany that he works

446
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 1: on a lot of He is someone who went up

447
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: stars in their imperial phase. They get a lot of

448
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 1: the music videos directed by Joseph Conto, Kelly back in

449
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: the day, a lot of Joseph conn videos, which ones

450
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: already gone. Um, a couple other ones too. I think

451
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 1: maybe like no, since you've been gone doesn't sound right?

452
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: He he he might injected misindependent. Remember the house party, I'm

453
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: not familiar. Oh gosh, so I'm definitely going to be

454
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: the authority here on. Kelly Clarkson, by the way, winner

455
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: of two Grammy nominations last night Winnination. I would like it.

456
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: She's a three time Grammy winner. In fact, here's a

457
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: little factoid. She's the only artist to win Best Pop

458
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: Vocal Album twice. Wow Is that true? She's the only

459
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: artist to win that award twice. She wanted for Breakaway,

460
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,399
Speaker 1: and she wanted for Stronger, and she was up again

461
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: for this year by Piece, and she lost out to

462
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift. And I saw some people getting a little

463
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: upset on social media that Taylor Swift would win a

464
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: Pop Vocal Album award when there's people like Kelly Clarkson

465
00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 1: and Florence Welch nominated. But the basically what it says

466
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:59,239
Speaker 1: for pop vocal album is it's an award for the

467
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: best boom that is or more with vocals. So it's

468
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: not necessarily like this person gave the best vocal performance

469
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 1: on this on their album. It's it's to separate vocal

470
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,480
Speaker 1: albums from instrumental album there's there isn't there a pop performance.

471
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 1: There's the best Pop Solo Performance category, which Teleswift did

472
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 1: not win. So there you go. Who did win? I

473
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 1: think ed Sheeran he did, great singer. But but you're

474
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 1: never going to do it for me. Um, I don't,

475
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't suffer, you know, little hobbits. You

476
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 1: know we should we should give Taylor a little bit

477
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: of credit for trying to belt. She did try to

478
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:47,119
Speaker 1: sing that song. Yeah, but when you okay, you know

479
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: she did. She gave it a shot. She tried. I

480
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: was gonna say, if you if you try to fly

481
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: a spaceship without the training, do you get credit for that?

482
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 1: You know what? That's a good point lesson number six

483
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 1: sixty two, don't fly spaceship without the training. What number

484
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 1: was that? I think? I think, Matt, I think some

485
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 1: contenders for merch this episode is um a shirt with

486
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 1: some lessons, I think so. I think we'll find the

487
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 1: right lesson as we go, but you can look forward

488
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 1: to Lost Cultures this shirt that will have one of

489
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,640
Speaker 1: our lessons on it, and that will be still to come.

490
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 1: So kind of gotta gotta keep listening. So I just

491
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 1: want to talk about the host of the show, l

492
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:37,439
Speaker 1: L cool J, Yes, the the pseudo host. Does this

493
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 1: happen every single year? That's my first question and my

494
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 1: second question that I posed to you is what's the

495
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: difference between LLL cool J and Queen Latifa? Really, go

496
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,399
Speaker 1: tell me the difference between L cool Jan Queen Latifa?

497
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 1: The same person. L L cool J wears little berets.

498
00:27:55,880 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 1: I don't know. LL cool j um ll cool J.

499
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,880
Speaker 1: They've got the same energy, They've got the same round face. Yeah.

500
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 1: I think it's the same kind of like inoffensive yet

501
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 1: like a little bit edgy. Isn't that it's horrible? It's

502
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 1: like we're gonna put a harmless African American in front

503
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 1: of America. Yeah, like no, Queen Latifa. I'm sorry. I

504
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 1: love Dana Owens. Can you like she? Is it? I

505
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 1: am a huge queen. I love Queen Lativa. I think that.

506
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 1: But I do think that the majority of the reason

507
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 1: why I like her is because of her personality and

508
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 1: how cool she is. Can I tell you I met

509
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 1: her once? Yes, she was very nice. She would I

510
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,199
Speaker 1: mean it was It was like when I was a

511
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: freshman in college and I was kind of lost at

512
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 1: the time. I didn't really know what I wanted to do.

513
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: I was writing for the newspaper school newspaper, the n

514
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: y U school newspaper UM called the Washington Square News,

515
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: and there was different sections obviously, So I went to

516
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: go be in like the film and television and theater

517
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: reviews and features department, and so we got to do culture.

518
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: Culture and interested in culture at an early age. Yes,

519
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 1: what the second I came to New York, I knew

520
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 1: culture at an early age. I knew culture was for me.

521
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: So um, I got the opportunity to kind of go

522
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 1: and see movies that were coming out early, and I

523
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: would see them, and then I would get to go

524
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: to these press junkets and I would interview some of

525
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 1: the celebrities and some of the you know, I did

526
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: meet some cool people. I got to interview Gary Cole,

527
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: Oh my God, from Pineapple Express and Brady Bunch of Movies,

528
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: and I was interviewing him. I was interviewing him a

529
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 1: better movie called Forever Strong about Rugby. I never heard

530
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: of it, Nope, neither did I ever. Again, I did

531
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 1: watch it though. You know who was in that. There

532
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: was a really hot, hot, hot actor, Sean Ferris Well,

533
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: I got to look him up because this guy was hot.

534
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: And also Amber Heard was in it. Heard she went

535
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 1: on to bigger and better things. But I mean, so

536
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: this movie anyway, that's a tangent. But I did get

537
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:02,080
Speaker 1: the opportunity to have this experience with the Secret Life

538
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 1: of Bees group, interview with the Queen Law Group, interview

539
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 1: with Queen Latifa. So I'm kind of very obviously, I'm eighteen,

540
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 1: I'm new to interviewing celebrities. Screen Screen is grass. So

541
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 1: basically like three of them come in. The writer director

542
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 1: Gina Prince Bythewood who also wrote and directed Love and Basketball,

543
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: one of my favorites, um and something else recently, oh

544
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 1: Beyond the Lights. I was gonna guess that. Yeah, I'm

545
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 1: really have to see that, really, really really good movies.

546
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: This this woman makes what's your Name? Gina Prince Bythewood, Culture, Culture,

547
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: spotlight on Prince Bythewood. You know, check her out if

548
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: you haven't, because Beyond the Lights is very good. It's

549
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 1: a little heavy handed at times, but Love and Basketball

550
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: is like a classic for all time, I think, and

551
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: Secret Life of Bees didn't wasn't too bad either, Right,

552
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: it's pretty good. Okay, So she comes in, she's fine,

553
00:30:55,880 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: nice interview. Sophie Okonado comes in, like this hotel, Rwanda,

554
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: Sophia Knado. She comes and she takes herself very seriously. Um,

555
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 1: but you know, as she should. She's a very very actress.

556
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 1: But um, you just kind of feel everyone like in

557
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: the room kind of like straightened up because it's like

558
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: an OSCAR nominated actress that we're dealing with now. So like, um,

559
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 1: I'm there, I don't really everyone's asking the good questions.

560
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: Everyone's very experienced jumping in, Like what everyone's got there,

561
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: Like really nice tape recorders out on the desk. I've

562
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 1: got my shitty like one that I just bought from

563
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: like a drug store. Yeah, And all I knew about

564
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 1: her was that she had been nominated for an Oscar

565
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 1: for Hotel Rwanda. That was it, and I knew that

566
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 1: she was in this movie. She played like the younger

567
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:43,880
Speaker 1: mentally challenged, So I guess she was in the middle

568
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: of the answering some other question and I and someone

569
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: brought up how amazing her performance was in Secret Life

570
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: of Bees and like that there would be a claim

571
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 1: coming her way she had, so um, She's like, well yeah,

572
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 1: and so I kind of like, because like do in

573
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 1: these situations you're going to kind of get your question in.

574
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: So I asked, what does that make you nervous to

575
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 1: talk about Oscar? Like does that give you a little

576
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: bit of butterflies to know that might be down the road?

577
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 1: Valid question? She looks at me and she goes, oh,

578
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: I don't know that that's in God's hands. And I'm

579
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: like okay, and I couldn't possibly think about it. What

580
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: that's That's in God's hands? Yeah, God, God, God's very

581
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 1: weakly looks away. I'm like continuous, and then um, the

582
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: one reporter next to me goes, did you want to

583
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 1: finish your answer? Has? He interrupted? I was like looking

584
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: at this g one mom next to me, who's like,

585
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: you know, obviously like twenty years professional, and she just

586
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: dressed me down in front of the whole room and

587
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: Sophia on. So I'm like, you take yourself too serious.

588
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: You're this, this, this whoever. That reporter was just sitting

589
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: in a sitting in some like stupid shittily upholstered chair,

590
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: just like you were. And while it was all the

591
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: same ship that I was, and I like just bumbled

592
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 1: in there from the n y U newspaper, so it

593
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 1: was like, get a life. She was really mean to me,

594
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: Oh my God, give it up and gets in God's hands.

595
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: God's the one filling out the ballots and God's the

596
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: one he's like holding luncheon. Is Harvey Weinstein? Yeah, anyway, stupid.

597
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,959
Speaker 1: So anyway she gets out of there, I'm like and

598
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 1: so basically like we're all sitting there. It's really uncomfortable

599
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: at this point. So now Queen Lativa's coming, She's the

600
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,080
Speaker 1: one you want to talk to anyway, And now I'm

601
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:37,080
Speaker 1: like too embarrassed to ask a question. And also at

602
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: the end, when everyone was done with their interview, everyone's

603
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: doing the bullshit of going up to them and be like,

604
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 1: oh I loved you in this, I loved you in this,

605
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: like she was so good and hold a Rwanda. But

606
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 1: no one could think of anything to say to Sophia

607
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,480
Speaker 1: Carnado except one, and she's like thanks, thanks, thanks. So

608
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: Queen Latifa comes in and she's a thousand feet tall,

609
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: she's got platinum blonde hair, and she just brings the

610
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: X factor in the room. Of course, she's just like

611
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 1: she's just so good. Like Queen Latifa is working the room.

612
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,919
Speaker 1: She sits down, handles all her questions with such grace,

613
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 1: looks at everyone in the eye just like such a pro.

614
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,600
Speaker 1: So then at the end, we all got the opportunity

615
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,359
Speaker 1: to like get our junket packets signed by then. So

616
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 1: I and listening to everyone be like, I, you know,

617
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: everyone that's pretending to know so much about like her

618
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 1: of what or however you say that word of like

619
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: her resume, they've got it. They've seen all our films, right, everyone,

620
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 1: everyone's seen all Queen Lativa's movies. Meanwhile, all these people

621
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 1: had seen with Chicago, and maybe they had seen like

622
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 1: what's the one bringing down that? Maybe what's the one

623
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 1: with the old one with her and Jada Picketts with

624
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,359
Speaker 1: where they Baraba bank. Oh, I know that when you're

625
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,880
Speaker 1: talking about ship that one. That one. Wait, let let

626
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: me look this up. We'll get up while I finished this.

627
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: So I'm going up and I'm like, I have seen

628
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: a lot of her movies and I'm gonna nail this.

629
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 1: Set it off. So set it off. Okay, so not

630
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: that one. Actually I haven't seen said it off. But

631
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 1: I went after her and I handed her my pamphlet

632
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,359
Speaker 1: and I said, I just wanted to tell you I

633
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 1: loved you in Life Support, which was her HBO AIDS movie.

634
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,280
Speaker 1: And she she turns around to me and she didn't

635
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:17,919
Speaker 1: look anyone in the eyes. She looks at me dead

636
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: in the eyes, and she goes, thank you so much, baby, Yes,

637
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: And I was like yeah, and I could see out

638
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 1: of the corner of my eye the woman that like

639
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 1: had talked about my home was like, damn, that's such.

640
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:36,319
Speaker 1: His kids got something. This kid kids, his culture. This

641
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: kid knows. Remember when I said, later I would tell

642
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 1: you why I was qualified. That's why. That's why, because

643
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: you knew and I had legitimately seen it and it

644
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 1: was moving right. And then you made a connection with

645
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:51,359
Speaker 1: Queen Latifa. Yes I did. She turned around. She she

646
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 1: wiped her platinum blonde hair out of her eyes and

647
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 1: she said, thank you so much, baby, you broke through

648
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,440
Speaker 1: her because she she sits through that chip all day.

649
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: I said to myself, I was like, she probably never

650
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 1: hears the stuff that she really thinks is great. Right,

651
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,880
Speaker 1: I'm sure she loved doing life support. Anyway. It was

652
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: definitely it was mostly me being like I'm gonna get

653
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: this woman, and you get her and get her. But anyway,

654
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 1: you know, I hear a lot of people talk about

655
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 1: why is Queen Tifa famous, like you know, and you know,

656
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,760
Speaker 1: you could debate whether she deserved her like Oscar nomination

657
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 1: for Chicago, But I'm saying I think Queen Latifa deserves

658
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: her place in the lexicon, in the culture. And you

659
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:32,360
Speaker 1: have a conspiracy the culture. You have a cultural conspiracy

660
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 1: that Queen Latifa is ladies love cool James. Is that

661
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 1: all cool Ja? I think they're the same, the same person.

662
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 1: I think they got to swap him out so they

663
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 1: we feel that different people are hosting different things. It's

664
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: a tokenism issue. They think, wow, we need we need

665
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,040
Speaker 1: just another person just like Queen Lya Tifa, but we

666
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 1: we can't find him there Switzerland in that like there're

667
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 1: Switzerland and that like cool Jagon queen. It's like, I'm

668
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 1: not offended by them, and I would probably fuck them.

669
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: That's what people think about Switzerland. Yeah, I'd probably suck

670
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 1: Switzerland's I would suck a Swiss person. Yeah, male female, intersect,

671
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 1: gender queer, and that's a part of culture. Any is

672
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 1: what you don't discriminate sexually, guys less than culture, you

673
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 1: don't discriminate sexually. So all right, let's let's keep going.

674
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 1: Let's keep talking about the Grammys. I think the host

675
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 1: was a questionable thing. I think we deserve better. I

676
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,320
Speaker 1: think we have to be challenged by the Grammys to

677
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:38,479
Speaker 1: the different kind of hosts. Carrie Underwood, same Hunt. There's

678
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: nothing so Carrie Underwood obviously, you know one of the

679
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: queens of country. There's a new one, new country star.

680
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 1: This guy. He's really gorgeous, hot, but he just really

681
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 1: can't sing. And I ask, is country music just a

682
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:59,040
Speaker 1: bunch of hot dudes that can't sing? Yes, I think

683
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:04,839
Speaker 1: it is absolutely country music. I think is even more gridlocked,

684
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 1: and it's anybody can do this exactly, Like, what the

685
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 1: fuck you can't Matt Matt, You guys, Matt Rogers would

686
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: kill in country. I think I should I think they

687
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: should make me a country music you would succeed. Don't

688
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,239
Speaker 1: know why they want flying colors. Well, you know sexuality

689
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 1: doors are about to open, did everyone? Okay? I just

690
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: wanted to tell everyone that I'm almose actual um, I

691
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:29,359
Speaker 1: want to I want to tell everyone that right now,

692
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 1: so I don't feel like I'm hiding. Culture is not

693
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,879
Speaker 1: the place, well not the place I said I would

694
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: be dropping truths. In culture, you don't hide, but in

695
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 1: culture you um don't ask him tell, Okay, Okay, rule

696
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:47,080
Speaker 1: number one, rule number one in culture, don't ask, don't tell.

697
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 1: But that's you know what, that's the merch. I think

698
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 1: that's it. Okay, So you can look forward to a

699
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: crew neck shirt or white crew neck shirt, and it's

700
00:38:55,200 --> 00:39:00,399
Speaker 1: gonna say culture. Rule number one in culture, don't ask

701
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 1: to tell. Only create really, only create only crip, only

702
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:09,760
Speaker 1: create only um. But anyway they're duet was absolutely stupid.

703
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 1: But I do have to give props to her outfit.

704
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 1: Oh you said she came out and her outfit was

705
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:21,279
Speaker 1: like fuck me in Heaven, which is nidie and it's

706
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: like ripped at the bottom and it looks like she

707
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 1: looks like an angel, like a fuckable angel. That's what

708
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 1: country music is is, um, uh have sex with me

709
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 1: and the Christian afterlife. Yeah, that's it super boring. But

710
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 1: like you know what, they all have that Fox News

711
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 1: like ideal beauty or so. It's such a bullshit because

712
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 1: all the woman looked the same. Carrie was giving me

713
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 1: making Kelly, she really was. They've all got there, Jessica

714
00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 1: Simpson bullshit hair extensions. Although she was rocking a short

715
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: to do, she was walking a nice little Carly Fiorina.

716
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: She was showing her support angle for the now defunct

717
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 1: Carl Fury in a campaign. I guess Carrie Underwood, by

718
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,400
Speaker 1: the way, UM would love to know her politics, oh

719
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: she I think. At the Country Music Awards a couple

720
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 1: of years, during after the midterm elections, she threw in

721
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: a little, a little little zinger about Republicans taking back Congress.

722
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 1: Did she And I don't remember what word she said,

723
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 1: but like she she said that and it got a

724
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: huge laugh in the room, played so well in that room.

725
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 1: She read the room, and and I was like, Okay,

726
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: well she's come. She's outing herself as a huge Republican,

727
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 1: which makes total sure. Anyway we think about the lies

728
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: we were fed about carry on. She had never been

729
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: on a plane, she's never seen a camera. Meanwhile, think

730
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 1: about the bullshit that is American idol. Talk about what

731
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: needs to get ripped out of culture, Well it is.

732
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 1: Think got good riddance, Well like the whole thing of

733
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: like we just found Carrie, but we've got all the

734
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:58,839
Speaker 1: stock footage of her plan in the fields. How how

735
00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,919
Speaker 1: I asked, think about what you're being fed. Think about

736
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 1: what you're being fed. Look for the pepsi cans is

737
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: what I say. Look for the pepsi cans. Look for

738
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 1: the pepsi trailer. Culture cultural fact rule number I think American.

00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,440
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh my god. And I realized

757
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:12,799
Speaker 1: that was when I truly realized that really we're just

758
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: sheep to them. I mean it's very Josie and the

759
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 1: pussy Cats, very Josie in the Pieces, the Piece prophetic movie.

760
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 1: Everyone should go out and Rachel Lee Cook, Rosario Dawson

761
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: star Josie and the Pussy guest because it was ahead

762
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 1: of its time, of its time, still having its time

763
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 1: and taking down the music industry like we are today.

764
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,280
Speaker 1: We are we are doing. We're just we're just taking

765
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,560
Speaker 1: the baton from Josie and the pussy Cats. Um. I mean,

766
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:40,399
Speaker 1: there's a lot to think about there. And I would

767
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 1: say rule number sixty and nine, Look for the pepsis,

768
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 1: look for the number six. They're there. Don't trust what

769
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,839
Speaker 1: you see. I would say, yeah, that's good. We saw

770
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 1: Ariana Grande on the Grammy. She she was introwing the weekend.

771
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: She threw a little pun in the little joke, and

772
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 1: I what are they trying to do with her at

773
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 1: this point? Like you can't have her out there looking

774
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 1: doughnuts and talking about so she hates Americo, So they're

775
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,759
Speaker 1: trying to make her like funny. She's a comedic. She's

776
00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 1: a comedic genius, right, genius. She's a talent, she's a

777
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 1: culture you know what cultural stamp of approval from loss

778
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 1: culture stas Ariana Grande is the is the next Moms.

779
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: Maybe I can see her in one of those movies

780
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 1: like scary movie. Yeah, she would do scary. I can't

781
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,160
Speaker 1: see her while she was in the Scream Queens for

782
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,200
Speaker 1: like sixty seconds, which is you know, but I can

783
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,880
Speaker 1: see her being in one of those like farsy satire

784
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,040
Speaker 1: movies that like the way she would be the criminal

785
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,359
Speaker 1: Electra because I remember her carmin Electors and Scary. Maybe

786
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 1: she would basically fill in for that. Yeah, yeah, I

787
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 1: could see Ariana Grande fill in that role. Be yeah,

788
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 1: be that little trope. Okay, let's keep it in the weekend,

789
00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,640
Speaker 1: whatever weekend, whatever. I don't get it. Ellie Golden performed.

790
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 1: She sounded okay um and andre day I believe, Yeah,

791
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:50,400
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't know her, but she does have

792
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 1: a pretty good voice. I feel like she just showed

793
00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 1: up out of nowhere. She's she's good. I like her.

794
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 1: We had the Lionel Richie tribute. Mm hmm, it looks

795
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,760
Speaker 1: really good. I said. It's amazing to see Demi Levado

796
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 1: style progressing from two thousand fifteen Demi Levado to two

797
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 1: thousand seven Demi Levado. It's amazing to hear it. Take

798
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,759
Speaker 1: the sleep forward, just a regression. She looks like camp Rock.

799
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,840
Speaker 1: She looks like camp Rock. Yeah, she just had this

800
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 1: whole year cool for the summer. Also one of the

801
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:26,360
Speaker 1: records of the year. Second year, but fucking she looked unbelievable.

802
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:30,920
Speaker 1: A year and she shows up looking like chased, looking

803
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:34,759
Speaker 1: like I think I have a heart attack. So it's

804
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:38,799
Speaker 1: two thousand seven, Demi. It feels like I've changed, and

805
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: I want Demi Lado move forward because I liked Demmy.

806
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:44,320
Speaker 1: I'm worried about her vocal health. She has You pointed

807
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: out that when she hit that I love you. She

808
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 1: decided to take it way up and her neck, her

809
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:55,120
Speaker 1: veins bursting with veins not healthy, not healthy veins to

810
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,120
Speaker 1: have first no no, no, no no, because it's all

811
00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,720
Speaker 1: coming from it doesn't sound healthy. It sounds gets a scream.

812
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 1: It sounds like you're blowing out every gasket in your body.

813
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,879
Speaker 1: She had like a widely acclaimed SNL performance not long ago,

814
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,319
Speaker 1: and I heard a lot of screaming and I think

815
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 1: Stone could, which is tough, and you know, she has

816
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,120
Speaker 1: really hard music. But the thing is they were saying

817
00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:19,200
Speaker 1: a few years ago about her like she can only

818
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 1: last a few more years in terms of her and

819
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 1: she has lasted, and I mean she's still doing it.

820
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 1: So maybe she's just got one of those throats that

821
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,839
Speaker 1: can do it. Demi Levado, she's gotten one of those

822
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,479
Speaker 1: one of those throats. Look out for the neck sock.

823
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:38,920
Speaker 1: I think this could be a pretty good piece of merch.

824
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 1: Demi Levado, she's gonna neck to keep your or we

825
00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,040
Speaker 1: need to sing like Demi Lato and scream. I was

826
00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,799
Speaker 1: going to also propose this could be like a supplemental

827
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 1: piece of merch, like a like a jewel case. C

828
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:56,280
Speaker 1: d um CD case with like a mock album artwork

829
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,640
Speaker 1: Demi Levado and the album title is one of those threats,

830
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,360
Speaker 1: one of those throats that's like Katy Perry, one of

831
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: the boys, One of the boys. Katy Perry absent from

832
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 1: the Grammy, but she was heavily featured in the in

833
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 1: the in cosmetic I think cover girl commercials. That girl

834
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 1: has so many product endorsements. I mean, she's got Pepsi,

835
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:17,399
Speaker 1: she's got H and M, she's got cover Girls. She's

836
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:20,359
Speaker 1: oh my god, Pepsi. Is Pepsi doing well back? But well,

837
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,760
Speaker 1: I think super But when when she was opening for everybody,

838
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying, look for the Pepsi people. But look, it

839
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 1: works both ways because you know who can never, ever, ever,

840
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 1: ever do the Super Bowl halftime show because of her

841
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:36,359
Speaker 1: diet coke alignment. Taylor Taylor Taylor Swift, So she can

842
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 1: never do Someone brought that up there were like, you know,

843
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift is livid that she probably can't do the

844
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 1: town the super Bowl half time show in the next

845
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:46,080
Speaker 1: ten years because of diet coke. And I hadn't thought

846
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:52,880
Speaker 1: of that. That's a thing. Culture. Culture is beholden to capitalism. Everybody,

847
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 1: what do we think of the Lady Gaga David Boy tribute.

848
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 1: I know Bowen is a huge Lady Gaga fan. Lady

849
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 1: gotta change Bowen's life. It was so whacked he it

850
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:04,200
Speaker 1: was a little bit unfocused. It was just there's too much.

851
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,320
Speaker 1: I don't know what she was trying to say. I

852
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 1: don't know if she was like she obviously was trying

853
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:12,240
Speaker 1: to honor David, but um David, like I know him Bowie,

854
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:15,400
Speaker 1: but like, uh, you know, it was just kind of

855
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 1: all over the place. That's the thing about Lady Gaga

856
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 1: is you never really know who she is as an artist.

857
00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 1: Maybe that's her thing, is that she's a chameleon. But

858
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:27,400
Speaker 1: also like focus on something I don't know. I prefer

859
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:31,160
Speaker 1: what she's been this year. I like that. I like

860
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 1: the weird, wacky American horror story Choice. I can't watch

861
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:37,359
Speaker 1: it because it scares me too much, but I like

862
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: that she's on it. I think it's fucking so gay

863
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 1: and I love that for her, and I think it's

864
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:46,040
Speaker 1: super heightened and perfect for her. And I like her

865
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:49,280
Speaker 1: Tony Bennett shit. And I like this song about campus

866
00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:51,360
Speaker 1: rape and I think it's important and I support it.

867
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 1: There you go. I think that like no, I mean,

868
00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:57,359
Speaker 1: Lady Gaga has to really didn't didn't her dare David Bowie?

869
00:47:57,400 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 1: Trevi didn't like upset me in anyway. I saw people

870
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:02,759
Speaker 1: on Twitter being like, I can't imagine any Bowie fanlking this,

871
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:06,240
Speaker 1: but you know what, like I feel like, lady guys

872
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,359
Speaker 1: leave her alone when it comes to David Bowie. I mean,

873
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 1: obviously it's a huge influence on her. It's like, come on,

874
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,279
Speaker 1: she's had the lightning bolts over her eyes and stay one.

875
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,239
Speaker 1: Leave your credit at home on this, leave the credit

876
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 1: at home. I think. I think in culture rule number one,

877
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,799
Speaker 1: sometimes you gotta leave your credit at home. Leave your

878
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:28,799
Speaker 1: credit at home. Unless you're creating, you gotta crip. You

879
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 1: got to create to cre create, then ture crip. Thank

880
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 1: you great. So I think at this moment I wanna

881
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:39,960
Speaker 1: go to a little segment that we have called I

882
00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:41,960
Speaker 1: don't think so honey. I don't think so honey because

883
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,600
Speaker 1: I have a big I don't think so honey about this,

884
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 1: and I want to put one minute on the clock.

885
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:48,719
Speaker 1: Let's put it, okay, let's do so this is we

886
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,440
Speaker 1: have one minute to really get our frustrations out about

887
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 1: something that happened in this cultural event this tonight. It's

888
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,359
Speaker 1: the Grammys and my I don't think so, honey. I'll

889
00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,279
Speaker 1: let you know what it is when I have my minute. Okay, alright,

890
00:49:00,360 --> 00:49:03,600
Speaker 1: one second, it's gonna really I've got a lot to

891
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:06,000
Speaker 1: unload because I think that we saw something happened last

892
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,760
Speaker 1: night that's unacceptable. All right, let's go and go. Whoever

893
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 1: did the sound engineering on Adele? I don't think so, honey,

894
00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: I don't think. Let me tell you something. That's the

895
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 1: that's the voice right now? And what you what? You

896
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:20,440
Speaker 1: couldn't wait? What was that strumming of the guitar. I

897
00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:24,640
Speaker 1: don't think so, honey. You better relax, get it right?

898
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 1: How come this sound could be right for everyone else?

899
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:29,600
Speaker 1: How Come? How come I have to watch that? And

900
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: if I didn't know better, I'm gonna walk away with

901
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,240
Speaker 1: that saying Taylor Swift as good a singer as Adelt,

902
00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:38,759
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think. I don't think so, honey.

903
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:42,879
Speaker 1: Justin Bieber, also, what the heck stop it? Like? Make

904
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 1: a joke? Like, honestly, I know the show must go on,

905
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,319
Speaker 1: but I don't think so. And honestly, she was so

906
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:50,560
Speaker 1: distracted in the first half. I felt for her so

907
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:54,360
Speaker 1: badly because she obviously couldn't wasn't breathing correctly for the

908
00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:56,239
Speaker 1: second half. But I don't think it'll work. She's a

909
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 1: consummate performer. Any haters that out there, I think that's

910
00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:00,719
Speaker 1: gonna bring Adele down. I don't think so. I don't

911

912
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 1: leave your credit at home when this one, honey, because

913
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 1: Adell is here to stay and that song is really tough.

914
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:07,960
Speaker 1: So that's my I don't think so, honey. And that's

915
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 1: one minute, wow, one minute amazing person. I don't think so, honey.

916
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,359

Speaker 1: So we're going to hear something you have, what you

922
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:25,000
Speaker 1: want to talk about. For the most part, I think

00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:28,280
Speaker 1: I have a theme. All right, Well, here we go. Okay,

924
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:30,359
Speaker 1: I don't think so, honey. You know who I don't

925
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 1: think so, honey. This this episode is gonna be Taylor Swift.

926
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:35,879
Speaker 1: I love Taylor, love her to death, love her music,

927
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:38,280
Speaker 1: respectors and arts, but you know what, her behavior sometimes

928
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:40,279
Speaker 1: at award shows and this is not This does not

929
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:43,160
Speaker 1: have anything to do with respectability politics. She she can,

930
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,319
Speaker 1: she can behave as she chooses, but the way that

931
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:49,120
Speaker 1: she sort of holds these cards in her hand and

932
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,920
Speaker 1: shows them off on TV. And I don't think I

933
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:53,960
Speaker 1: don't think so. One of the friends, I don't think so, honey. Yeah,

00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,279
Speaker 1: that's Ed Sheeran's moment, Honey, that's at Cheron's moment. Honey.

935
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:58,839
Speaker 1: Do you do not clutch onto Ed sheer and after

936
00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:00,840

939
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 1: I don't think so. It's not for Taylor, Honey. No,

940
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:10,120
Speaker 1: I don't think so, honey. I don't And you know what,

941
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: I don't think so, honey. I don't think so, honey.

942
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:13,920
Speaker 1: The people who think that Taylor Swift is giving you

943
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:18,239
Speaker 1: this like authentic feminism's are your friends. She's not your friend, honey.

944
00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:20,160
Speaker 1: I don't think so, honey. She's our friends, she's our friends,

945
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:22,279
Speaker 1: but not yours she's Selena Gomez, his friend. And also

946
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:23,839
Speaker 1: I don't think so honey, Selena. I don't think so honey,

947
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 1: Selena Gomez, you know what, you can just ditch this

948
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:29,319
Speaker 1: thing and go to the actor one minute. I don't

949
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,560
Speaker 1: think so honey. So now what we're supposed to do

950
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:34,799
Speaker 1: is we're supposed to find an organic third, which I

951
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 1: think we found it, kind of found it for with

952
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:39,759
Speaker 1: Selena Gomez. Do we want to go one man a

953
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,560
Speaker 1: heart at Selena, Let's go a woman in heart. We're

954
00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:44,000
Speaker 1: gonna go on heart at Selena. We're gonna ask Joe

955
00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:47,000
Speaker 1: to hold hold our thing, our our timer. So this

956
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,880
Speaker 1: is one minute. I don't think so honey, for Selena

957
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:53,120
Speaker 1: Gomez and go I don't think so honey. No, because

958
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 1: let me tell you something. Let me say something right now.

959
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:56,600
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. She gets on on that

960
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 1: stage and like I know there's a lupus issue and

961
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:00,719
Speaker 1: I feel bad, maybe she's having a bad moment, but

962
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:03,319
Speaker 1: like she's whispering into them Mike doing the sexy baby thing,

963
00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 1: and it's like that's all yourself. I don't think so honey.

964
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 1: Anyone who does the sexy baby thing, I don't think

965
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:08,640
Speaker 1: so honey. And also I don't think so, honey. You

966
00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:10,799
Speaker 1: know what about sleeping gums, the fact that she has

967
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:12,960
Speaker 1: not put her focus on her film career, because she's

968
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,040
Speaker 1: a very talented, very talented. And I don't think so,

969
00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:17,080
Speaker 1: honey with the music, because we know it's just for money.

970
00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:19,600
Speaker 1: And also I understand you're an industry, but guess what,

971
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,080
Speaker 1: we're not stupid. We're not stupid. We're not gonna thought

972
00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 1: for that. I don't think so. It's not even a

973
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 1: j Loo thing. I don't think so, honey, because j

974
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:28,400
Speaker 1: Lo does have talent. She is busting her ass dancing.

975
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:31,240
Speaker 1: She is giving you performance, and you're not giving me performance.

976
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:33,759
Speaker 1: You'll give me performance on the film, on the celluloid.

977
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:35,560
Speaker 1: On the celluloid, you know what. You give me film,

978
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:37,719
Speaker 1: you give me, you give me performance and culture on

979
00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:42,240
Speaker 1: spring Breakers, spring Breakers, it's a place on harmony, Korean films,

980
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 1: on art house projects, please give me that. Also, big short,

981
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:47,520
Speaker 1: give me short, give me life, Selena, but you know what,

982
00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:49,480
Speaker 1: Selena Gomas, do not give me life at the Grammys.

983
00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:53,399
Speaker 1: I don't think thank you. That was the organic third.

984
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 1: And now it's time for our culture of the week.

985
00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,960
Speaker 1: We've gotten now to that moment meant where we pick

986
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 1: out an institution or a you know, a cultural movement,

987
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:08,799
Speaker 1: something that's really killing it. And I think every week

988
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 1: we can really expect versatility in this section. Yes, we're

989
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna try to cast a wide net and

990
00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 1: just pull from different places and culture and society. So

991
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 1: and not only is there a cultural leek on the

992
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:21,080
Speaker 1: flips that we have a fulture of the week, culture

993
00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:24,839
Speaker 1: of the culture of the week, and so we're gonna

994
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:28,680
Speaker 1: we should mention that. Matt and I try to compare notes, um,

995
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:30,359
Speaker 1: but we don't always get to it. We don't always

996
00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:31,920
Speaker 1: get to it. And sometimes we try not to have

997
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:34,480
Speaker 1: as much overlap. We try not to have overlap when possible,

998
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:37,960
Speaker 1: but sometimes, um, sometimes there is. And so let's just

999
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 1: get into it. Sure, So would you like to go first? Sure? So,

1000
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:44,400
Speaker 1: what's your culture of the week? What is surpassing what

1001
00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 1: is elevating culture this week? Who? What? When? Where? Why? Please?

1002
00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:51,360
Speaker 1: Thank you? Matt, Um. I think what is really putting

1003
00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 1: culture at the forefront this week? What is really just

1004
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 1: what is the rising tide that's lifting every boat in culture?

1005
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,759
Speaker 1: Um is going to is it has to be the

1006
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:05,440
Speaker 1: Turkey legs at Disney World, elaborate on that. So, how

1007
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 1: did it heighten your experience when you went there? So?

1008
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:11,279
Speaker 1: Um for people who aren't familiar with the Disney parks, Um,

1009
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 1: at Disney World, every Disney most of the Disney parks

1010
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 1: saw these gigantic turkey legs, turkey legs dedicated stands throughout

1011
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:24,080
Speaker 1: the park that basically only sell the turkey legs. The

1012
00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:26,720
Speaker 1: turkey legs stands. So you're gonna have your food stands,

1013
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:28,440
Speaker 1: your beverage stands, but then you're gonna get your turkey.

1014
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 1: It's not unlike you'd see dipping dots or something like that. Exactly.

1015
00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 1: Turkey legs, I would say, are the dipping dots of

1016
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:36,400
Speaker 1: Disney World. Yes, so you would You know what? The

1017

1018
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:44,080
Speaker 1: or has improved them multiple times is um, Sometimes I'm hungry.

1019
00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:48,000
Speaker 1: Sometimes they need salt and protein and fat in my diet.

1020
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 1: Do you think they're too big? Absolutely not. If I

1021
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:52,600
Speaker 1: thought they were too big, I would not They would

1022
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:53,920
Speaker 1: not be my culture of the week. I don't think

Speaker 1: that's that's a Hamilton's Tech. That's crazy, that's nuts, And

1055
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:37,320
Speaker 1: I thought it couldn't be real. It's real, it's real. Also,

1056
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:42,879
Speaker 1: one of my favorite employees at Disney World, it's got

1057
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:46,040
Speaker 1: to be the hostess at Bells and Chance Tavern. Who

1058
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:49,239
Speaker 1: this is. Before we went together, I went to my

1059
00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:53,160
Speaker 1: sister and I walked up to this girl that was

1060
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:57,160
Speaker 1: host there, and she's got a smile as big as

1061
00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:00,560
Speaker 1: the day is long, like greeting guests, like everyone the

1062
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:04,839
Speaker 1: same thing, which is no, no, no no, and like

1063
00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:08,480
Speaker 1: everyone's so mad, so mad, to the point where I

1064
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,680
Speaker 1: was like, they're treating her so badly. It's not her faults.

1065
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 1: And I had to my saster. I was like, what

1066
00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 1: would make a person continue this job? Like there must

1067
00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:22,240
Speaker 1: be benefits or something, or maybe she's just actualized and

1068
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:26,520
Speaker 1: likes it, and like, really, she's completely in a in

1069
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:28,960
Speaker 1: a very um because the people that work at Disney,

1070
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:30,440
Speaker 1: they do love it. They do love it. You know

1071
00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:32,880
Speaker 1: what that that? I think you're right, she's actualized in

1072
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:37,240
Speaker 1: a in a Carl Union way. She's completely self actualized.

1073
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:39,560
Speaker 1: I think, so, um, okay, well that's my culture of

1074
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:42,240
Speaker 1: the week. What about yours? Um, so my culture of

1075
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,440
Speaker 1: the week. This is crazy. But it was the Disney

1076
00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:48,160
Speaker 1: Turkey legs as well. Try not to overlap. I didn't

1077
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:49,480
Speaker 1: think that you were going to go that way, but

1078
00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:51,600
Speaker 1: I was thinking, what if I enjoyed most over the

1079
00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:53,880
Speaker 1: last year of my life, because you know, this is

1080
00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:56,240
Speaker 1: the first episode and it was the Disney Turkey legs.

1081
00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:59,680
Speaker 1: I mean, they bring me back to a time when

1082
00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:02,160
Speaker 1: I was young where I think my father exposed me

1083
00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,080
Speaker 1: to the turkey legs for the first time in Apcot.

1084
00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:07,120
Speaker 1: Do you think they're too big? I don't know. I

1085
00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:09,920
Speaker 1: don't think they're too big, and I never feel that fall.

1086
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:14,480
Speaker 1: But I would say, if I had want to complain

1087
00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:17,800
Speaker 1: about them, it's that they are a little messy. But

1088
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 1: then that doesn't bother me either, because then I have

1089
00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:21,760
Speaker 1: some more on my face. And if someone says you

1090
00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:23,400
Speaker 1: got a little turkular on your face, I just taken

1091
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:27,680
Speaker 1: it and it's just like another snack. So for me,

1092
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:31,600
Speaker 1: it's like and I don't feel that they're that they're overpriced.

1093
00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 1: If you were going to ask me if I think

1094
00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:35,880
Speaker 1: they're overpriced, I think that the running the running price

1095
00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:40,000
Speaker 1: rate is seven dollars, I said I would pay for them.

1096
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 1: If they were twelve, I would pay upwards of thirty

1097
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:45,720
Speaker 1: dollars for a turkey leg. I would say I would too,

1098
00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:48,080
Speaker 1: because you know where you are. You're in Disney, You're

1099
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:49,920
Speaker 1: in Disney run, and you've got to expect to spend money.

1100
00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:51,480
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're not going to expect to send

1101
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:52,840
Speaker 1: money when you go there, I don't know what you're

1102
00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 1: going there for. That is premium turkey, that is premium poultry.

1103
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,000
Speaker 1: I just want to say, for anyone that might be

1104
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 1: planning in our land of vacation, you might be surprised

1105
00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:06,680
Speaker 1: about the price point Disney World versus Universal Studios because we,

1106
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 1: I think, thought it would be easier to fit Universal

1107
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:13,680
Speaker 1: Studios Florida, or I should say Universal Orlando, because it's

1108
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:16,280
Speaker 1: now a resort that rivals that of Disney into the

1109
00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 1: same trip. And you know, we were at the Universal

1110
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:21,520
Speaker 1: for one day and it was more expensive than the

1111
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,000
Speaker 1: three days we were at Disney Disney World, you guys,

1112
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:28,680
Speaker 1: no joke, No super affordable, super affordable. But meanwhile, and

1113
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,320
Speaker 1: you would think this would be the reverse. Universal is

1114
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:34,080
Speaker 1: big jogging in like crazy with this new Harry Potter

1115
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:37,680
Speaker 1: park and they are just really really spiking up their prices.

1116
00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 1: But content over at Universal, especially for older people. You know,

1117
00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:43,080
Speaker 1: you could say that's where you're going to get the

1118
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:45,720
Speaker 1: bank for your buck. That's literally because you are paying

1119
00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:48,680
Speaker 1: for it. But they have the turkey legs. No they don't.

1120
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 1: And I just get a sense of childlike wonder and

1121
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,480
Speaker 1: magic at Disney. All right, Fulter Fulter of the Week,

1122
00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:57,840
Speaker 1: why don't you go first? Okay, so my Fulter of

1123
00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 1: Week field culture and this this is remember, this is

1124
01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 1: going to be the opposite of what a turkey leg is.

1125
01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:04,640
Speaker 1: So the opposite of a turkey like at Disney World

1126
01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,840
Speaker 1: for me is Kanye West he has. He has just

1127
01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:13,600
Speaker 1: really been all over the map. And this this, this

1128
01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:18,360
Speaker 1: this campaign for for life of Pablo is the schizophrenic,

1129
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:22,360
Speaker 1: I would say probably very like, you know, deliberate, but

1130
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:25,000
Speaker 1: like god, it's so hard to follow. What's the biggest

1131
01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:28,560
Speaker 1: difference between what Kanye is doing and Disney is doing

1132
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:33,840
Speaker 1: with the Turkey legs? Mm hmm. What Kanye is doing that?

1133
01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 1: What Kanye isn't doing that. The Disney Turkey Legs are

1134
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:43,560
Speaker 1: doing is um letting me into the world of the

1135
01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:46,280
Speaker 1: Turkey leg and Kanye is not doing that. What you

1136
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:50,840
Speaker 1: feel like this is an exclusive almost squad like, almost

1137
01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 1: squad like like, I don't think so, Honey, Taylor Swift.

1138
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:56,280
Speaker 1: I would completely transpose that to I don't think so,

1139
01:00:56,360 --> 01:01:00,720
Speaker 1: Kanye West. Look, this was Khalifa beef was not to follow.

1140
01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:04,680
Speaker 1: I was very down with Kanye liking but stuff, but

1141
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:08,120
Speaker 1: then he but know, he shamed us all, He shamed

1142
01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:10,080
Speaker 1: us all, and then he denied the butt stuff. You

1143
01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 1: know what stupid to do? Own the butt stuff, own

1144
01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:15,880
Speaker 1: the butt stuff or get the funk out. After amber

1145
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:17,760
Speaker 1: Rose tweeted, I was like, you know what, No, I'm

1146
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:20,440
Speaker 1: on Kanye side. He loves butt stuff, so do I

1147
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:24,560
Speaker 1: don't stigmatize it. But then Kanye denies the butt stuff.

1148
01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:26,440
Speaker 1: I don't like that, because all you have to do

1149
01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:29,080
Speaker 1: is not respond. Don't say I don't do the butt stuff.

1150
01:01:29,240 --> 01:01:31,240
Speaker 1: I keep that out of there, like you treat it

1151
01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:33,440
Speaker 1: like it's disgusting, and we all feel disgusted, and then

1152
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:37,320
Speaker 1: everyone thinks and then this communities will think it's disgusting. Also.

1153
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:39,400
Speaker 1: I just want to say that you can be a

1154
01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:42,680
Speaker 1: genius and also be a misogynist. Absolutely, We've seen many

1155
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,680
Speaker 1: of them throughout the years. Hello, and I think Bill

1156
01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:50,680
Speaker 1: Cosby innocent, Bill Cosby similar similar. Well, I don't know

1157
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 1: that's a big but it's a big jump. But I

1158
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 1: would say, I would say that Kanye West is not

1159
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 1: someone I would look at, and I would say, guy

1160
01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:03,360
Speaker 1: respects women. I just went, no, he doesn't. And I

1161
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:08,880
Speaker 1: think there's a big Bernie bro esque type problem happened

1162
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:13,440
Speaker 1: towards Taylor Swift right now, which is this thing of

1163
01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:18,400
Speaker 1: like people upset about her kind of saying shade shading

1164
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 1: Kanye West with her Album of the Year acceptance speech. No,

1165
01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:24,120
Speaker 1: she's just sticking up for herself because he called her

1166
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:30,520
Speaker 1: a bit and said, and that's that's a misogynistic behavior

1167
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:32,240
Speaker 1: and it should be called out. Don't you love it

1168
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:34,120
Speaker 1: when they can also be a genius and you can

1169
01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:37,360
Speaker 1: enjoy his music, But don't get piste that she said something.

1170
01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:40,520
Speaker 1: Don't you love it when men? Um? I think they've

1171
01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:43,640
Speaker 1: invented someone. That's that's what I love. Oh yeah, I

1172
01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:47,000
Speaker 1: mean no, I'm like I love Kanye West. I love

1173
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:51,360
Speaker 1: and the album is good. I think that Absolutely, it's good.

1174
01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 1: Absolutely was always going to be good. He's always going

1175
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:56,760
Speaker 1: to create great music and create great art. But you

1176
01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:59,720
Speaker 1: know him being a missogyst mutually exclusive and he's not

1177
01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:02,480
Speaker 1: given me turkey leg. You know what, Kanye give us

1178
01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:07,400
Speaker 1: turkey leg? In a paragraph, how could the Grammys have improved? Yes, um,

1179
01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:09,600
Speaker 1: this is our job as culture consultants. The Grammates could

1180
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 1: have been improved by um more more thoughtful performance ideas

1181
01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 1: and concepts, and just an outward, very uh over overt

1182
01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:30,760
Speaker 1: statement that this is a populist competition. That's that, that's that,

1183
01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:33,480
Speaker 1: that's my that's my little soundpie. So you think going

1184
01:03:33,560 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 1: in knowing this is a populist capitalist moment, I've got

1185
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:39,120
Speaker 1: to think about what makes the industry money. This is

1186
01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 1: an industry event. Maybe a little bit more forward. Oh

1187
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:44,680
Speaker 1: my god, we we didn't even talk about the Hamiltons

1188
01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:47,440
Speaker 1: and the Kendrick Lamar performances, but those two, you know what,

1189
01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:50,680
Speaker 1: I need more moments like those. Yeah. Watching us back

1190
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 1: to back, I was like, Wow, this is you know

1191
01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:54,640
Speaker 1: what the Grammys are are a good award show because

1192
01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:58,440
Speaker 1: you get amazing moments like this because yes, So what

1193
01:03:58,520 --> 01:04:00,400
Speaker 1: I want to see is I want to seem more

1194
01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:04,040
Speaker 1: true talent. Yes, because you watched Hamilton and you're like, oh,

1195
01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:06,760
Speaker 1: this this is what talent and you get the hype

1196
01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:09,800
Speaker 1: Brown Hamilton after you watch it. So that's it. It's

1197
01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:11,600
Speaker 1: like my thing with the Grammy says, It's like, you

1198
01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:14,360
Speaker 1: know what, Grammys, make me believe the hype? How about

1199
01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:17,480
Speaker 1: that culture? Culture lesson number four sixty seven, Make me believe,

1200
01:04:17,640 --> 01:04:20,240
Speaker 1: make me believe the hype you hyped, Make me believe

1201
01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:24,320
