Goodness ding dong 3 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,319 Speaker 1: lost Culturistas calling well back in the home, back in 4 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: the habit, back in the home, back in the habit. 5 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: Did your get fixed? Heater got fixed? But let me 6 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: tell you what now, we're getting a little dehydrated now 7 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: as a result of heat or season, and I think 8 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: a lot of publicists and readers can really also can 9 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,879 Speaker 1: we just say I'm sorry because I keep wanting to 10 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: bring up the last Culturistas culture Awards. I think, I think, 11 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,599 Speaker 1: should we just announced that the ceremony is not happening. 12 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: The winners are will never be announced. I think we 13 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 1: cannot say at this time. I gave a read. I 14 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: read through the nominees the other day. It was like, 15 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: none of this makes sense anymore. So I think that's 16 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 1: a snapshot of summer. It doesn't work. Okay, we're ready 17 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: to announce at this time that as that we wish 18 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: our nominations leader all the best, but we feel it 19 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: would be importation to continue with the ceremony as the 20 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: world currently stands for cultural awards, they are canceled. No publicists, 21 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: you've been fired. We're so sorry, and it's because you do. 22 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: You guys did a bad job. Okay, you guys did 23 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: a bad job. How dare you? How dare you? You've 24 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: made us do this? You had one thing to do, 25 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: which is push your clients, and there was not enough 26 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: of that. Better luck next time, Better luck next year, 27 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: next year, see you next year. Publicist flops anyways, Um well, 28 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: it's it's almost like bowen. You know what I've been 29 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: loving lately is lost culture narratives. You know what I mean. 30 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: We've had one narrative and in a happy way, which 31 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: is your eat is better, but with a twist, now 32 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: it's too hot, and we have we have one narrative 33 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: that's sort of ending with that with a very terribly 34 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: sad ending, which is that the last Cultures Culture Awards 35 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: will not stand. But also, what are awards anyway? You 36 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Icon Award winner Pat Regan has 37 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 1: said awards are so silly, awards especially let me tell 38 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: you something. I'm looking at a girl who's lost two 39 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: Emmy's girl, this loser, and I can tell you either way, 40 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: it would not have done a damn thing. I would 41 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: not have changed. I haven't changed. Let's just let's think that. 42 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: Let's make it clear. This one's been the same for years, 43 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: and no Emmy is going to change my girl, and 44 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: actually we're a culture number forty four. No Emmy is 45 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: going to change my girl. Except when I went to Emmy, 46 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: I'll be changing no. I think I want Matt Rodgers 47 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: to win an award of prestige badly because I really 48 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: want people to to to see with their own eyes 49 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: how you will stay true to yourself. I need to 50 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: be the standard for staying true to yourself. And actually 51 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: that's actually true. I think you are already. I just 52 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: think people people need to see it with their own eyes, 53 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: not that people don't. Not other people don't. I've always 54 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: told you that if I one day and my my 55 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: death bed and I haven't you got it, I will 56 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: be pissed off.

Yeah, actually yeah, 77 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 1: I think it's fine to say we're going to Mexico City. 78 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 1: We're going to We're going to c DMX. We can't wait, 79 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 1: um and we can't wait to go see the museums, 80 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: the town squares, the architecture, all of it. Well, I 81 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: was talking ABOUTE and I UM FaceTime the other day 82 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: and I was I was telling you that, so so 83 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: we're going with study and MO. It was originally their trip, 84 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: and we've kind of hopped on so Sudi Sudi. And 85 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 1: when I was like, oh, maybe I'll be interested in 86 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: going to Mexico City, she goes. She short of dragged 87 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 1: me without meaning to. I told you what. She goes. 88 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: She goes, well, it's not gonna be a lot of relaxing, 89 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: it's gonna be activities. And I was like, oh, what 90 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: kind of activities? And she goes a lot of museums. 91 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 1: And I could tell she was trying to warn me 92 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: because she thought I wouldn't. But I'm a cultured girl. Okay, 93 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: I'm lost culture. You're lost your lost culture stas. I think. 94 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: I think there's I see what you're saying. I also 95 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: think maybe she has a very good friend of yours 96 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: knows that you don't love museums, like you don't pursue 97 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: museums when you travel. I think that's all she was 98 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 1: trying to say. Maybe I'm turning over a new leaf. 99 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: Maybe I want to say, oh, that's an interesting rock. 100 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: You know, where did it come from? You know, maybe 101 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: that's an interesting bowl. What culture made it? You know 102 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: what I mean? Like I sort of want to understand 103 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: and get into museum culture and it's never too right. 104 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: If only there were a rock and Bull museum that 105 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: you could go to in every city in the world, 106 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: and every city in the world, so all, but there 107 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: is also there's nightlife Mexico City aptly going to deliver 108 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 1: in Mexico. I don't know why I said it, Like 109 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: Mexico City city has a lot of nightlife, has a 110 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: lot of queer culture. I think it's oh, it's called 111 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: like the Pink Square or something that's in the Zona 112 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: Rosa or something is the red the Pink Zone. I 113 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 1: love that, the zone that's like the queer, that's like 114 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: the traditional queer. And now like there's there there's all 115 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: these new queer neighborhoods that are popping up around the city, 116 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,119 Speaker 1: but the original one. If I'm not mistaken and maybe 117 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 1: totally wrong on this Zona Rosa. And that's sort of 118 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: why we reach out to the readers. You know, please 119 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: if we don't know anything, no, no, and you should 120 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: just say like first and foremost, like of course we 121 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: come onto this podcast and from the beginning we've called 122 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: ourselves experts. But that's not true. I'm gonna We're gonna 123 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: pull the curtain back right now, Okay, that's never been true. 124 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: It's not true. Everybody calm down, Just calm down. We're 125 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: rarely right. That's so. I mean, I think, okay, I 126 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: think the real readers no, because we're back to being 127 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: readers now have been fired your all readers once against 128 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: have been fired. The real readers know that we are. 129 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: We don't know anything. Yeah, we don't know ship We 130 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: really don't and and so like sometimes people sort of 131 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: get upset at us for getting things, and you just 132 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,799 Speaker 1: have to understand that is that is the big lie. 133 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: That's the other big lots of the other big line. 134 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: It's actually really culture number ten. The other is that 135 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: we know anything. We don't know anything. Anyway, we can 136 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: catch up on life first before where there's a lot 137 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: of culture to get into. I can't even believe Bowen. 138 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: It's actually it's actually one of those things where it's 139 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: like you say, catch up on life and it actually 140 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: sort of bleeds in together with the culture. For me anyway, 141 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: because it has been such a ripe time for the culture. 142 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: Bow And said, well, we have a guest on this week, 143 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: and I said, you know what, And I'm still on 144 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: buzzing and on a high from our guests last week, 145 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: Dr Wendy, that was amazing. We love her. I feel 146 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: it sounds like it sounds like you guys did okay 147 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: out there. It sounds like there was even some minds 148 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: change that maybe we're for some ridiculous reason not Team Wendy, 149 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: and now you are. We love you, we kiss you. 150 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: But there has been so much culture. I said, I 151 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: think it just has to be me and my sister 152 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: because we have so much to wade through. But it's 153 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: seems like you want to talk life. So if I'm 154 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: thinking about what's gone on in my life. Definitely, there 155 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: was Thanksgiving, definitely, and how did you feel about it? 156 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: H you know what first year ever in my adult 157 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: life where I didn't cook a turkey? Mom insisted on 158 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: going to allow. Mom insisted on going to a nice 159 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: quote unquote brunch that she booked at a place that 160 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: we love to go to. First Thanksgiving meal. The only 161 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: time she could get was ten am. We got up, 162 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: it was we had Thanksgiving it ten am. And that 163 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: is actually, oh wait a minute, this was maybe going 164 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: to be my own with thinks.

No, no, no, 166 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: because because because I said I didn't, I didn't really 167 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: have it because my life has been so much culture 168 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: because I stayed in l A for things. Okay, so 169 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 1: go off, Okay, So so I'll just let me just 170 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: finish this up and then we'll get into the culture 171 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,599 Speaker 1: because I respect that. I actually am I envy that 172 00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: was your life, hundred hundred period. So had ten am Thanksgiving, 173 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: which I had no real, so to speak, misgivings about. 174 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: And then after that, my parents and I go on 175 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: a hike in Castlewood Canyon, Colorado, beautiful hiking trail. We 176 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: go on a hike, and then I was going to 177 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: make side dishes for dinner quote unquote and just like 178 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: make like neck and cheese, mashed potatoes, stuffing, like and 179 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: then just really, well we all come to the table 180 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 1: for you exactly. I still wanted to drive. No, no, no, 181 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: exactly right. So I went on a hike with my parents. 182 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: I documented it on Instagram. Everybody commenting why are your 183 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: parents not wearing hiking clothes? Why are they wearing button 184 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: downs and the dazzled sweaters and stuff like this, and 185 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: I want and I basically was like I got into 186 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 1: one reply with someone and I was like because they're immigrants, darling, 187 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: dear r. The rules don't have to a fly, and 188 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: it's kind of beautiful when people don't assimilate. And if 189 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: they if they want to wear a fucking crazy sweater 190 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: as they hike and like not like a loafer, let's 191 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: say they can and it's okay. And if they want 192 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: to eat Thanksgiving dinner at ten am, that's okay. Step 193 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 1: outside of the box. Everyone, Come on, it's queering the culture. 194 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,559 Speaker 1: My parents are queer. My parents are queer. After this year, 195 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: after this thanks Giving their queer. The Yangs are queer culture, 196 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: and they're here to stay okay, and they're here to 197 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: stay you thank you, Mama Ruling. He is a queer god. 198 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: And I'm staying in here on the podcast. What about 199 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: the gayest men in America? Man? Is it? She? She? She? 200 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: She rules the queer school. She and share actually together 201 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: have a power. They dictate queer culture. They're the chancellor. 202 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: When I see all you guys out on your hikes 203 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: now and you're not wearing what you would call a 204 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: fabulous sweater or a fancy sweater that my mother that 205 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: that man war. If you're not wearing what men were 206 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: out on the on the trails. Then then you're not 207 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: actually getting it, you're not clearing the hike space. And 208 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: that's actually a flop flopless knop, as to quote Nicki 209 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 1: Minaj on the real Houses of Potomac. But wow, I 210 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: can't believe that some people just want to pick on 211 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: little things. It's okay. I don't think they were. I 212 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: don't think a lot of them were picking on it. 213 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: They were just confused. This is the first time he 214 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: had seen this, and I think they had a lot 215 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: of questions, of course, and I maybe for a second 216 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: mistook it as well. They're being unqueered, They're being very normative. 217 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: And now I just want to tell everybody, queer the 218 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: hiking space. Queer your hiking space, where your heels, where 219 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: your heels, tell where your heels yours. Try it and 220 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: send us a photo and we will repost. We will 221 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: if you. This is really asking them to get into 222 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: a dangerous situation, but I'm going there anyway. I would 223 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: love for you to tag yourself and your girlfriends out 224 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: on the hike in your heels. Everyone get over, but 225 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 1: to the nearest cliff, get to the vista. Take a 226 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: photo of you in your heels on a hike and 227 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: tag it. At last, culture Rista's hashtag heels on a 228 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: high hashtag clearing the hike. I feel like this is 229 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: dangerous and maybe we don't promote this, but if you 230 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: can wear a bedazzled sweater please on the hike, Please 231 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: do so that it's just as queering as the heels. 232 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: How about this, It doesn't have to be heels if 233 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 1: it is extra points whatever extra point means. You know, 234 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,439 Speaker 1: we can dictate later points. Take a picture of yourself 235 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: on a fabulous hike. That's all I'm saying. Are you 236 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: smoking Reefer? I thought we were smoking. I thought we 237 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 1: always smoke Reefer on the culture catch Up. So I'm 238 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: so let me just let me pull back the curtain. No, no, no, 239 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: I want you to indulge in go there, but let 240 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: me pull back the curtain. So today I had my 241 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: first rehearsal for having heard a Christmas with Henry. How 242 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: did it go? It went really well. We got through 243 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: all the songs. I only went up on my lyrics 244 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: a couple of times, which is fine. But it's feeling. 245 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 1: It's feeling good to sort of use my hashtag instrument again. 246 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: But I am also realizing it's been a long time. 247 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: So I'm getting back into it. My first shows are 248 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,719 Speaker 1: this weekend in Chicago. I'm very excited, but I've definitely 249 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 1: been as a result of me trying to be a 250 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: little bit more safe with my voice, I've been very 251 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: much a shut in, and so that has resulted in me, 252 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: I respect this to the high heavens. I have been 253 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:39,719 Speaker 1: absorbing so much culch and going out and doing some 254 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: things like me and Mo actually had a fabulous Thanksgiving together. 255 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: We really saw the stories it looked, and Vanya the 256 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: cat was with us, and Vanya is, of course my 257 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: gay gods, so gay, and he was. He was so 258 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: gay and fabulous, and you could tell he wanted to 259 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: get into the food so much. You know the thing 260 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: of when I pet wants to get into the food. Yes, 261 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:05,239 Speaker 1: that is we all know this girl Beethoven with a drumstick. 262 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: Hilarious comedy. One of the comedy icons Beethoven. That dog 263 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: knew the assignment. A lot of people would say, he 264 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: did what he needed to do. He did what he 265 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: needed to do, had the turkey leg in his mouth 266 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: while still giving you droopy eyes going huh, just dead pan, 267 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 1: dead pan and God just giving you Aubrey Plaza before 268 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: she was even around, Okay, that is true, was not 269 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: around when Beethoven came out. Aubrey Plaza was what a blastula. 270 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: She was a zygotic, young, dead pan doer. But after 271 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: Beethoven anyway, So you've been, really you've been. You've been 272 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: shutting in, you're protecting the instrument. I say, bravo, thank you, 273 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: and that's premature, but we hope to hear a lot 274 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: of that all throughout December. All right. So basically, when 275 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: I say that a culture has been my experience so far, 276 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: what I mean is there's been so much out there. 277 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: There really has been to chew on and talk about. 278 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: I think that number one, and you know, we'll talk 279 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: about all of it, but number one, I would say, 280 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: but and this of course is a little monster podcast, 281 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: and I think that you know, while you say that, 282 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: you know, Lady Gaga changed her life in terms of 283 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: her music. I would consider myself Lady Gaga's number one 284 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: fan as an actress because I actually saw Stars Born 285 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: a record four times the first weekend it came out, 286 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: and I have seen a House of Gucci twice. This 287 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: is incredible. And let me just say without this encapsulates 288 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: a lot of my feelings about the movie. Would not 289 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: see it again, even even though I also I too 290 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: love Lady Gaga as an actress. You love her so 291 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: much that you would see the movie twice. So when 292 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: when the first viewing of the film was over, I 293 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: had regrets about having a plan to see at a 294 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: second time. Because here's the thing about House of Gucci. 295 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: I don't think it's good. I agree, but Lady Gaga 296 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: is spacular spectacular would you agree? You said spectacular, I 297 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: said phenomenal. Bit at the same time, you didn't hear me, honey, specnomenal, 298 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: specnomenal title of that title, that specnomenomenal. Lady Gaga is secnomenal. 299 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 1: So you loved her. I loved her so much she 300 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: actually here's the thing. Like I was texting with Dave 301 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: about it. He said to me, I didn't because here's 302 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: the deal. Like in the press for the movie, in 303 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: the trailer for the movie, there is a degree of 304 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: oh my god, this is going to be camp and 305 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: a little bit of nervousness like did she go too 306 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: far this time? I did not laugh at her at all. 307 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: To me, I bought her entire performance. I actually felt 308 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: that Lady Gaga's performance was the tone and that was 309 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: supposed to be that it was supposed to be, and 310 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: then every other actor unfortunately was not in the same movie. 311 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that much has been made of 312 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: this already on online. Like I'm not saying something new anyway, 313 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: but I actually think it unfortunately falls on the director 314 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 1: of really Scott, because there was almost no direction in 315 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: this movie. It was like you had Lady Gaga doing 316 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: House of Gucci what it should have been, and it 317 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: really you know, that's that you had Adam Driver sort 318 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: of like underplaying it in a way that unfortunately was dull. 319 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: And then Jared Leto in what I'm calling the Walluigi 320 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 1: biopic Purple because because Paolo was wearing purple Babe, this 321 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: was a zoo animal performance. I have no one, I 322 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: really I think now we can all say not not ours. 323 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: We we don't. We don't, we don't claim him, we 324 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 1: don't think anything of him. No, I think there are 325 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: some people out there like us who might really enjoy him. 326 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 1: Here's the deal. And I'm saying we are, we shouldn't. 327 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: I am not a fan and this is and I've 328 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: had is was with certain things before, but like for me, 329 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,919 Speaker 1: this is my This is actually an issue I have 330 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: with the movie. He deliberately and willfully did not match her. 331 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: And I think I actually called the performance narcissistic and 332 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: and and like egospyst because he obviously it's the prosthetics 333 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: of it all, because first of all, Peloguchi did not 334 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 1: look like that, So it's the prosthetics. It's the hammy hammy, 335 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 1: hammy overacting, which yes, some of that blame does fall 336 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: on Realley Scott, but it just felt like like chewing 337 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 1: the scenery performance in a movie that did not require 338 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 1: that or need that. And I almost think it's a 339 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: casting issue because why don't you just put someone in 340 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 1: that movie in that role that actually embodies that person. Therefore, 341 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: you wouldn't be telling the actor, hey, you're in a 342 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: prosthetic with a movie, in a movie with Lady Gaga. 343 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:53,120 Speaker 1: And he thinks, because he didn't gauge it correctly, that 344 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: that meant I'm going to deliver will Luigi Bio can 345 00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: we I have a feeling this probably can't be conferred 346 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: and this is just conjecture. I feel like he probably 347 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: was the one to push for the prosthetics. It reads 348 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 1: to me as you know, he's the one who demanded 349 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: those pross That's what I'm saying. And so really I 350 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: think I just grimaced anytime, especially in the scene with 351 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: Gaga where like the father Son House, a Gucci scene, 352 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: I was just like he was he was he upset me. 353 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: I was like stop it, cut it out. It was 354 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: completely distracting. And also it is credit to Gaga that 355 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: she's able to anchor that scene and she actually manages 356 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: something kind of spectomenal, which is that she's able to 357 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: be the fun thing in every scene and also anchor it. Yes, Wow, 358 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: you're so right, my sister genius. You know what I'm saying. 359 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: It's like when when when she is not on screen, 360 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: why are we watching it? Exactly? Do you think? Do? 361 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 1: And I guess obviously the filmmakers did think that this 362 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 1: was supposed to be something everyone wants to because it 363 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: was an epic about Gucci. If you thought that, then 364 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 1: you would give us something in the writing early on 365 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: that makes us care about Gucci. There was nothing in 366 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: this movie that said outside of that Gucci meant wealth 367 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 1: and power and family. There was nothing in in in 368 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: the House of Gucci that was akin to the assassination 369 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: of Johnny Versacci, which really let you know what Versaca 370 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 1: was all about. You pronounced it correctly, Rosa. You're so 371 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 1: right because there because even when she meets him for 372 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: the first time at the party, it's like there's no like, 373 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: there's no there's no like she doesn't like widen her 374 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: eyes when like she like tells her who she is 375 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 1: or something, you know, like there should be something that 376 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 1: like flips in her when she finds out who, like 377 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: like who his family is. You know, I think she 378 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: she hints at it a little bit, but also it's 379 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 1: never saying that's not it's not her problem. I think 380 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: it's in the script, like there's no there's no moment 381 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: in the direction, there's no moment anyway. Sorry, Yeah, I 382 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: would say that. My my issue is that if you're 383 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: going to because again, like I feel that this movie 384 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: actually commits a lot of the same errors that Starsborne did, 385 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: which is, once it loses her, it loses us because 386 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,360 Speaker 1: in the last forty minutes, which by the way, this 387 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 1: is a two hour and forty minute movie, and you 388 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: feel every minute of the last forty minutes because when 389 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: they bring in Reeve carneyas Tom Ford. It's like, wait, 390 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: so this so this is a movie about Gucci, movie 391 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: about her, because that's not how the first half of 392 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: the movie was. It was very much about her, and 393 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden it's not. And we have 394 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: to watch that long scene at the end, which is 395 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: Morritio Gucci played by Adam Driver getting dismissed from the company, 396 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,199 Speaker 1: and it's like, wait, this is not the part that 397 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: we ever cared about exactly it was, Yeah, I agree, 398 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: it was a slow crawl. And then by the time 399 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 1: she shows up again with Salma looking like Joe Calderone 400 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: what like that scene, it's so she's a get She's 401 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: not even doing that much like campy stuff. I would 402 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: call it not camp but even just like the it's 403 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: it's not camp but even the fun, like the fun 404 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 1: part that you remember is who does what? The way 405 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 1: she points her finger, but it's still like, I don't know, 406 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: it's still so like that. I mean that just speaks 407 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: to how like much her absence has felt in that 408 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: last forty minutes. You know. The thing is like in 409 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: the trailer when you see like who does What? And 410 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: don't miss and like you're laughing and you're like, oh no, 411 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: But then when you watch the movie, her performance is 412 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: very consistent. Do you know what? I wish they had 413 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 1: more scenes of Gaga and Jeremy Irons. I think all 414 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: we got was that meal where they first meet, and 415 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 1: that scene is great because of the two of them, 416 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: like like it's so like it's It's just I thought 417 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: that was a decent scene, like out of the many 418 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: like weird scenes in the movie. Pretty much every time 419 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: she's on screen, I enjoy the movie. Yeah, it's just 420 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: that too much of it forgets that, too much of 421 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: it thinks that the interesting thing is this epic tale 422 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: of the rise and fall of Mauricio Gucci and the 423 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: Gucci family, when meanwhile, that is not why we buy 424 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: the ticket. And maybe I'm being presumptuous here, but I 425 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: almost feel a more interesting movie completely leaves this behind 426 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: and is merely about what happens when she gets divorced 427 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 1: and and what her life becomes. And I think there's 428 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 1: a more interesting movie about the plot with Salma and 429 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 1: these guys and the aftermath of the murder, realizing what 430 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: she's done and that she didn't get away with it. 431 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 1: That to me, is the more interesting film. I love that. 432 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: Oh my god, it very like Itania almost and we 433 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: saw none of it. We saw him, I mean spoiler alert, 434 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 1: I guess if you haven't seen it, but by this 435 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,479 Speaker 1: point whatever, we'll put it in the liner notes. But 436 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 1: we see him getting murdered, and then she writes Paradiso 437 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: in her um journal, which really happened. And then you 438 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 1: see her getting sentenced. Pretty much that's the and then 439 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 1: and then and then the credits roll. Yeah right, And meanwhile, 440 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: isn't there so much more to the fact that she 441 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: did not get away with this probably thought she would 442 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: or maybe did it. Like, there's just a lot more 443 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: to explore in terms of the character of Patricia Reggianni 444 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,919 Speaker 1: that I feel the movie doesn't have much interest in. 445 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: And I think it's a mistake the way you just 446 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 1: broke this done for everybody. The readers that that stick 447 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 1: with the pod know that when they trot out these 448 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: movies at the end of the year and see these 449 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: are the Oscar movies. I take that seriously. And I'm like, okay, well, 450 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: if this is like defining the culture, I mean, you 451 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: all heard that I was not easy. I'm promising young 452 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: woman in that script and I respect the fact that 453 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: it won the OSCAR for Best Original Screenplay, but I 454 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: hold these things to a high standard for better or worse. 455 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: And no one went into House of Gucci wanting to 456 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: love it more. And I leave and it's seven because 457 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: of the strength of her performance. And I think al 458 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: Pacino was fabulous. Oh Pacino was you and I talked 459 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 1: about how we both loved Pecino absolutely, Oh my god, 460 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 1: he was so great. He should be the buzzy supporting performance. Yes, yes, agree. 461 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 1: I think that sometimes the industry and actors get so 462 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: up their own ass about the transformation of it all 463 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: that they're not thinking about tone Like this Jared Letto 464 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: performance is willfully bad. He was he kind of was 465 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: throwing the movie a little bit. It felt like he 466 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: didn't respect her prosthetics. And movies for the most part, 467 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: are just like the perfect symbol of this obsession with 468 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 1: losing disappearing into the role, which is so fucking overrated. Yeah, 469 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 1: I I don't think we actually need it, you know 470 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 1: what I mean? I don't care like like and this 471 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,360 Speaker 1: is the thing is like, you know, American time Story 472 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: ends in a while back. But even with Sarah Paulson 473 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: in that in that series, which I thought she was great, 474 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: Like I don't know if I needed the prosthetic or 475 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: maybe it was. And I think she's an amazing actress 476 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: and you know whatever, but maybe it's not the right 477 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: person for the part. Then if you have to like 478 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: put a prosthetic on to make it clear, how quote 479 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: unquote ugly this person was, you know what I mean, Like, 480 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: it's just there's something nasty about it. I kept my 481 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,959 Speaker 1: finger on it, but the prosthetic of it all throws 482 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 1: me because I think we're moving it. I think we're 483 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: gonna move out of it because I think we we 484 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 1: aren't the only ones who feel this way. I think 485 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: we're at a breaking point with it. That's what I'm saying. 486 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,199 Speaker 1: Like very soon we will, like I think in like 487 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: ten years, the industry will avoid it so much. Truly. 488 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,479 Speaker 1: It's not like a C G I thing where it's like, 489 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: oh no, they can develop the technology better. It's that 490 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 1: it just it's it's it's this thing of like why, 491 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: like what is it really saying when we like make 492 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: someone look a certain way with these like little attachments 493 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: to their ace or something or body, like I don't 494 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,199 Speaker 1: know what that says about the role, if it's being 495 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: if it's like if it's an adaptation of a real 496 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: story or something. You know, it's like that kind of 497 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: also noticed that it usually is applied on an actor 498 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 1: that is a perfectly symmetrical physical specimen. I mean, Jared 499 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:26,439 Speaker 1: Leto is a beautiful person, like anyone in the world 500 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 1: could objectively say, oh, that is a beautiful man. Even 501 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 1: in this performance, like his eyes just kept exploding out 502 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: to me. I'm like, see, I'm here's the deal with 503 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: the prosthetic on I'm actually remembering more and more that 504 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,640 Speaker 1: this is Jared Letting. Yes, he did not disappear into 505 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 1: it at all for me, because it was clownary. Mm hmmm. 506 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: So the win the wink of the wink was too big, 507 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: it like cut through the prosthetic count. Yeah, it was 508 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 1: just was it was not effective, And I it's rough 509 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 1: because and I think that the thing with him is 510 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: he gets a lot of credit for being someone who 511 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 1: quote unquote disappears into rules. Like you know, he's obviously 512 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: not a transgender woman. He wanted an oscar for playing one, 513 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: probably right in the nick of time, probably about a 514 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: year and a half later that would have been completely unacceptable, 515 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: but he did win an oscar for Dallas Buyers Club 516 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 1: for playing a transgender woman. He obviously is one of 517 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: the you know list of jokers that we have, and 518 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: he was method on that set and sending his cast 519 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:33,120 Speaker 1: members like rats in the mail. Literally, um, I just 520 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 1: too much for me. And he seems like I'm over 521 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: I'm over the Jared Lettle thing and like like I've 522 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 1: been for a while and House of Gucci just to 523 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: me because I feel it was disrespectful. That's why that's 524 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: what this is where I'm completely I think we it's 525 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: so funny. Like to me, Jared Letto is someone who 526 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: while he's like had these dumb little transgressions and he 527 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: seems to be an insufferable person, like he hasn't ever 528 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: like made me care how I feel about him, And 529 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: now I actually care enough to say that I dislike him. 530 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: Yeah it's not it's I don't. I think he's like 531 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: you know what the thing is like like he to 532 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: me is one of the frustrating ones because like I 533 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 1: do feel like he does have talent, you know what 534 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Like I can totally like see he's a 535 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: talented person. I think he's a talented musician. You know, 536 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: his music is not for me. But I actually heard 537 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: him do a cover of Rihanna Stay one time on 538 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 1: that radio lounge or Radio one maybe See one. It 539 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: was fantastic. And I think that when he plays roles 540 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: that are appropriate for him. And we could get into 541 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: a larger discussion about what role is quote unquote appropriate 542 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: for an actor whose job is to inhabit other things. 543 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: But I just think for me, I actually come out 544 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: of it way more when I see him playing far 545 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 1: from himself. You know what, I like him my so 546 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 1: called life, you know what. I like him grow interrupted, 547 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I like him when he's 548 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: giving something that I identify with and I recognize. Yeah, yeah, 549 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: I don't like while Luigi Biopic. I have a really strange, 550 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: potentially unfair question to ask. This is just I just 551 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: want to see I just because I can't. I don't 552 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: know what the answer is to this. Let's say Linda 553 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: trips Sarah Paulson. Would it have worked, which she had 554 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: been good or effective in the role, if she didn't 555 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: have the prosthetics on, if she wasn't wearing the fat suit. 556 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. Here's the thing I think she's always 557 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: going to be good because I think that Sarah is 558 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 1: incredibly talented. And I left watching that series, which I 559 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: did watch the whole thing. I was actually really impressed 560 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: with her because I thought there was a degree of 561 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: humanity that she gave the character. My issue lies in, 562 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of plus size actresses, a gorgeous, thin, 563 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: blonde woman and again, I guess I'm asking this because 564 00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: I haven't seen it, so I don't know how much 565 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: of she's incredible, no notice. I'm sure she's incredible, but 566 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: I'm not sure how much the show makes um it 567 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: a characteristic that she is fat. But then you've told me, 568 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: like there's so many liquisine SMEEs and all this stuff, 569 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: and yeah, I'm sure like the human Linda Trip was 570 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: obviously the way people perceived her was obviously informed by 571 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: her weight and her figure, and that's why you get 572 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,719 Speaker 1: like John Goodman playing her on SNL Like it's like 573 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: it's like that's which is shitty. You know, It's like 574 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: there is a narrative thread in the series which is yes, 575 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: from the first episode you see her sort of you know, 576 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: following nineties diet trends, um but it's less about her 577 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: weight that she's made fun of and ridiculed and bullied 578 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 1: in the public eye and more because of two things. 579 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 1: One she fully betrayed her best friend and it was 580 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: like a very to the public at the time. And 581 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 1: you could agree, you could argue now black and white betrayal. 582 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: She's a she's a horrible person. We just and and 583 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: it does, it does color in some shades of gray. 584 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: But she definitely did something that I think this this 585 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: this series sort of hints at that she regretted for 586 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: the rest of her life. Um because it did destroy 587 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 1: Monica's life at the time, but also it's more about 588 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: her getting ridiculed because she is and this is like 589 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: the word that they would all use, ugly. It's about 590 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: how ugly she is, how ugly she is, how ugly 591 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 1: she is. And so by the end of the first season, 592 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: and this really happened, Linda Trip in real life got 593 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: extensive cosmetic surgery to look completely different so that a 594 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: she wouldn't be recognizable and and you know, torn apart 595 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: for the rest of her life and she could start 596 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: her life over, but also be because Sarah Polson actually 597 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 1: has a line in the last episode where she says, 598 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, I never actually realized how ugly I was 599 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: until everyone told me, which is heartbreaking. There's something to 600 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: the fact that there's a fucking gorgeous actress playing her 601 00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: who has no shortage of opportunities. So that's I guess, 602 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's an interesting conversation. And when that's 603 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: there's no responsibility or any sort of like stage gate 604 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: for like someone for Sarah to be like, I shouldn't 605 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 1: take the role, you know, Like, that's not what we're saying. 606 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: We're just saying there's this dilemma in Hollywood that may 607 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: or may not. Yeah, well it's it is a you know, 608 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: it's a thing of like, well, not not to rope 609 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: it into the diversity conversation, but it's like, what about 610 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: people who do look like regular people? You know what 611 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: I mean, Like I mean Linda trip was, I mean 612 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: what whether or not whether or not she was unattractive 613 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: is subjective ultimately, but it's also like, so much the 614 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: show is so much about the beauty standard that for 615 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: them to put an actress in a fat suit and 616 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: a prosthetic to make her less attractive is problematic. Yes, 617 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: when you're doing a show about the beauty standard, right right, 618 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: it's not problematic then, like diluted and like we as 619 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: an audience don't really sort of buy in. Yeah, And 620 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: I also think, you know, Ryan Murphy really likes to 621 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: work with who he works with, and I also don't 622 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 1: begrudge him that. I think that he he obviously prefers 623 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,840 Speaker 1: to work with certain actors and I think that Sarah 624 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,840 Speaker 1: Paulson is one of the best out there, So I 625 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: don't begrudge that. I just think, you know, if we 626 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 1: were to leave watching this series without discussing that, and 627 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 1: it's interesting we talk about it in the thing of 628 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: House of Gucci because at a certain point it's a 629 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,760 Speaker 1: talking point. I think for the opposite reason they wanted 630 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: to be, because it doesn't allow us to opt in. 631 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 1: It actually distracts us from yes, yes, yes, I love this. 632 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:50,280 Speaker 1: I think it's time to move on. So I wanted 633 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,399 Speaker 1: to ask you about a movie that we just both saw, 634 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 1: which you told me that you watched and I enjoyed 635 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,400 Speaker 1: so much, and I mentioned it last week on the 636 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,080 Speaker 1: Pot and I'm really so happy that you watched then 637 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: your parents enjoyed it so much, which was Passing by 638 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 1: Rebecca by Rebecca Hall loved it so much and we 639 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: watched it. I watched it with my parents because I'm 640 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: now I'm having to pick up movies where there are 641 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 1: Chinese subtitles, and Netflix, with at least their original stuff 642 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 1: will have Chinese subtitles on, and so played it. How 643 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,919 Speaker 1: the subtitles on. My dad keeps being like, I don't 644 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 1: need these, I can understand what's going on. I actually 645 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 1: had that question for you, though, I did, I did, 646 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: I did. I wondered just how much of it they were. 647 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 1: They were, they followed all of it, they loved it, 648 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: but um, the subtitles thing is funny, and it's this 649 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:42,879 Speaker 1: funny like first generation thing. I guess maybe where first 650 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:47,839 Speaker 1: enieration millennial gen z thing. You're either overestimating or underestimating 651 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,799 Speaker 1: how much your parents can, like your immigrant parents who 652 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: don't speak English as their first language, can like absorb 653 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: narratively in something. I feel like Passing was a movie 654 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 1: that ended up being so like, so wonderfully lean and 655 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: yet so effective, and the storytelling in the narrative that 656 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: like they got it and they understood everything that was 657 00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: going on. Yes this, I mean I love this, I 658 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 1: love I I pretty much loved everything about it. I mean, 659 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: I thought that Tessa Thompson was exquisite, and I think 660 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: that she she is not getting talked about enough at 661 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 1: this time of year because I think there's a lot 662 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 1: of bigger, louder performances. But she So what if people 663 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 1: don't know the story is about Tessa Thompson is a 664 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 1: woman who lives in Harlem, and this is the nineteen 665 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: twenties in New York and she one day is passing 666 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: in a white part of this city so that she 667 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 1: can run errands. And what that means for people that 668 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,919 Speaker 1: don't know is that she is basically light skinned enough 669 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,959 Speaker 1: where she can sort of disguise herself as a white 670 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: woman so that she is not attacked, ridiculed, harassed, or 671 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: worse in this white part of town where she needs 672 00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 1: to run errands for the day and it's a very 673 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: high day. So she stops in a hotel and runs 674 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: into a childhood friends of hers played by Immaculate, who 675 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,399 Speaker 1: is fully passing as a white woman with blonde hair, 676 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:17,320 Speaker 1: married to Alexander scars Guard who continues to push himself 677 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,240 Speaker 1: like and he does there's no monster, he won't play, 678 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: and there's something brave about it. It's very brave. I 679 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: am part of me is may be worried that this 680 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 1: is all he's getting offered. It's a little typecast threatening. 681 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:34,319 Speaker 1: He's obviously someone who I mean, he's Norman like I 682 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 1: think I think that he's one of the best actors 683 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: as well. But yeah, he plays her husband and basically 684 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: like they have a conversation that leaves both of them 685 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 1: wanting to reconnect. And it's dangerous because Alexander scarts Guard 686 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 1: is a major racist and so they start a friendship 687 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,919 Speaker 1: again and the movie takes off from there and it's 688 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 1: just it's just fabulous. I mean, she Rebecca Hall wrote 689 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,839 Speaker 1: this right, and she wrote and directed it based on 690 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 1: her own experience of finding out that her grandfather passed. 691 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: I mean there was such like I told you this right, 692 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,879 Speaker 1: and I think, I really think, I don't think I'm 693 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: off here. It was a Tennessee Williams quality about this. 694 00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: It's also very streetcar like, for like coming into the 695 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: home of this marriage like it just and she was 696 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 1: playing like Southern Bell, like Blanche Dubois, like Ruthe ruth um, 697 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: and it was just so so like wonderfully done. Shot 698 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,799 Speaker 1: in black and white as a choice yeah, I mean 699 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: I loved it. I loved it so much. I mean, 700 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 1: we're just saying how much we love it, right we 701 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,320 Speaker 1: were discussing, I don't, I mean, I don't. I obviously 702 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: don't want to give much of the plot away, but 703 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 1: it is really actually it's very interesting as a as 704 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 1: a movie to look at right now, I think, particularly 705 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 1: in our times, because one of the subplots which I 706 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 1: thought was really interesting is um Tessa Thompson and her 707 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 1: husband have a disagreement about how much to tell their 708 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: children about violence towards black people. And I thought that 709 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: it was a really really fascinating conversation and argument that 710 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: they have because Tessa Thompson is the more light skinned 711 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: in the couple and she thinks our kids don't need 712 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,439 Speaker 1: to know about it, and her husband who's more dark 713 00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: skinned and cannot pass. Her husband cannot pass, doesn't have 714 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 1: that privilege. He is like, no, they do need to 715 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,399 Speaker 1: know about it. And you know, you see the way 716 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:38,799 Speaker 1: that Ruth Nega, who is you know, extremely charismatic and 717 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 1: does pass, is able to step back into black society 718 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 1: and really becomes the bell of the ball. So it's 719 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 1: so much internally going on in Tessa Thompson's character to 720 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 1: the point where it all ends up to this climax, 721 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:57,839 Speaker 1: which is you know, really really really impactful. And I 722 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,399 Speaker 1: just think that everyone should watch it because it's so 723 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 1: beautifully done. And Tessa Thompson, I think this put her 724 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: in a different league for me, absolutely, And I was 725 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 1: telling you that, like she had a very difficult thing 726 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: to accomplish in this role where between Stella and Blanche, 727 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 1: like Blanch is the more interesting one, like it's the 728 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 1: same thing here. It's like or it's like like it's 729 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: like similar to Zola in a way where it's like 730 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,680 Speaker 1: the looser, I mean not the looser canon like the 731 00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 1: more mysterious person. The actor like that role is just 732 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:31,280 Speaker 1: a little bit shinier and more fun yes to an audience, 733 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 1: and for her to sort of have to be this 734 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 1: like grounding thing person, I'm sorry, I'm so stoned, but 735 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: but does this make sense? Like she like makes she 736 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 1: really had to like hold that grounded nous. I just 737 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 1: think we don't respect nuance enough. I just think especially 738 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: you know, it's just so hard to do. And I 739 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: think that even in Gaga's performance in House of Gucci, 740 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,719 Speaker 1: like people are going to think, oh, this is like, 741 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,320 Speaker 1: you know, an over the top, like wildly emotional performance, 742 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:05,319 Speaker 1: but there is nuance in it, and I think that 743 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 1: that's really what I look for, as I look for 744 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: those little things under the surface that that tell you 745 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: all you need to know. And Passing has so much 746 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 1: of that. And I think it's also credit to the 747 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 1: script and Rebecca Hall. You know, I've always been interested 748 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,359 Speaker 1: in her as an actress, like I've always been, you know, 749 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 1: aware of her. I like her, and Vicky Christina I 750 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 1: like her, and you know, she was in Frost Nixon, 751 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 1: I think is the first thing I saw her, and 752 00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:30,800 Speaker 1: she was in the town. She's in lots of good stuff. 753 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,839 Speaker 1: She has a real talent as a writer. Yeah, oh 754 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: my god, so tight that script, like for yeah, I 755 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:42,280 Speaker 1: mean that triangle of Testa's character the husband and Ruth's 756 00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 1: is such a perfect like triangulation, sorry to say that again, 757 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: but like for testas character where she's like caught between 758 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:54,799 Speaker 1: these two poles. Yes, it's so great. Yeah, I feel like, 759 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:56,879 Speaker 1: you know, the Testament is a great writing and also 760 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: great direction and acting obviously is how much is our 761 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 1: sticulated and what is not said and so on the page? 762 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,320 Speaker 1: You know what I love is that there's very long 763 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 1: scenes between the actors, like I really love I missed 764 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 1: that I miss I missed, like, um, you know because 765 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 1: it very easily could be uh like a scene on stage. Um. 766 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 1: And it was a novella, so it's a it's a 767 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: it's an adapted work, but this is a really it's 768 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,400 Speaker 1: like there's scenes study you can do it because there's 769 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 1: subtext and there's really rich things for the actress to 770 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,800 Speaker 1: play and they're just so good. I just can't recommend 771 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: it enough. And I was really happy that you watched 772 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 1: it and liked it so much. Girl, I loved it. 773 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 1: Let's move on. Should we talk about speaking of colorism? 774 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,879 Speaker 1: Should we just talk about Potomac? Well, it's so so yeah. 775 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 1: I mean, just to dive back into our like our, 776 00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 1: because I feel like with Wendy, we were talking so 777 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: much about her in her life that we really didn't 778 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 1: get into it about Potomac. But this was the long 779 00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:57,400 Speaker 1: teased episode. This is a long episode. But I I 780 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 1: just want to say, this is not me patting us 781 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,799 Speaker 1: in the back. I was so surprised her at her 782 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:05,799 Speaker 1: surprise that the audience was registering the colorism that was 783 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: happening on the show, Like when we brought it up, 784 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: she seemed genuinely like shocked in a way, like she 785 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:12,520 Speaker 1: was like, oh, I didn't know you guys were clocking 786 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: that too. I mean, I don't know this for sure, 787 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 1: but I think that is probably a testament to just 788 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 1: how abandoned dark skinned black people and dark skinned black 789 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:27,880 Speaker 1: women often feel in this conversation, because like, this is 790 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: not this did not just come up on this show. 791 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 1: But these things don't change. And I think that you know, 792 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:38,279 Speaker 1: to me, it's very obvious. And obviously last night was 793 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 1: a more fun episode of the Reunion where Nicki Minaj 794 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 1: got into so many things. But I still think we 795 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: have this you know, hanging narrative, which is the fact 796 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: that you know there's that there's an issue at play there. 797 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 1: But this was kind of just more fun. And I 798 00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: love that Nikki like she really was willing to break 799 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: the fourth wall a little bit with them, which I 800 00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,799 Speaker 1: always enjoy. I love it she knew that she or 801 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,759 Speaker 1: Andy told her like, you can actually take a side 802 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,719 Speaker 1: in all the things, and she was like and like 803 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: she made it known. And I think she said a 804 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:11,280 Speaker 1: lot of things that the audience has thought the time. 805 00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:13,760 Speaker 1: And I just I mean I talked to a friend 806 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 1: and I was like, oh my god, did you want 807 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:16,399 Speaker 1: what did you think? And he was like, I really 808 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 1: hated it. He was like I wish it would have 809 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:20,000 Speaker 1: been twenty minutes. But then I was like, oh really, 810 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 1: and he specifically referenced and it made sense to me 811 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 1: when he was like, yeah, like it was insane to 812 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 1: watch like Canada squirm when like they were making her 813 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,400 Speaker 1: sing like that is something that was a little uncomfortable, 814 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,799 Speaker 1: very uncomfortable. Actually it was. That was the only moment 815 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 1: where I felt bad for one of them. I was like, see, 816 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 1: this is a little unfair, because I mean, let's be real, 817 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 1: Nicki Minaj is going to sit up there on that 818 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 1: stage and be like, we know you use auto tune. 819 00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 1: Do you think that she's sang a note of the 820 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 1: super based chorus? Do you think that she come on 821 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:54,600 Speaker 1: Starships was actually acapella. The final track is acapella, and 822 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 1: she's doing all of that with her with her own voice. 823 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 1: It was army of computers on all of Nicki Minaj's albums, 824 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: and we respect her, and but to bring that in, 825 00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:08,439 Speaker 1: I think, of course she wanted to, you know, stir 826 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 1: it up a little bit. But the thing is like 827 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,359 Speaker 1: the thing with singing like that, it's like when you're 828 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,359 Speaker 1: put on the spot like that and you haven't been 829 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,799 Speaker 1: warming up, like you know. I I did feel bad 830 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 1: for her, and then you know her her acapella was 831 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 1: not great, like because she was nervous. She was nervous. 832 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:24,799 Speaker 1: It's clear she can sing though, it's clear she of 833 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 1: course and the song is a hit. And I didn't 834 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 1: appreciate the way that was a mess Nikki was making 835 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:35,799 Speaker 1: Nikki and Mia fuck Mia, MIA's toast, no piece of 836 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 1: ship she's done. But the way they were making Candice 837 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 1: feel like it was not a successful single, like it 838 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 1: absolutely is to chart on Billboard is a huge ecologis 839 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 1: a huge deal. And the way they the way that 840 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 1: Nikki was making faces, and I think this might have 841 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,480 Speaker 1: been the editing about the amount of albums that Candice 842 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 1: has sold, like that's nothing to sneeze at, like no 843 00:45:55,400 --> 00:46:00,400 Speaker 1: one buys albums anymore. Like you know, her single formed 844 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 1: it is the best housewife single, definitely single from a housewife, right, 845 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 1: like I would say, I mean, unless a lot of 846 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:10,600 Speaker 1: people are in a lot of people do love Tardy 847 00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:12,360 Speaker 1: for the party, which is Candy Burris, you know what 848 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Like she did write it shore but expensive, 849 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 1: and like how many funcks like those are just like 850 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 1: sonically very fun, but like musically just like so stupid. Yeah, 851 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 1: their party songs and like just forget about lu Anne's stuff. 852 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,120 Speaker 1: But like this is a I thought it's I think 853 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,800 Speaker 1: it's a great album. I'm happy that she released a 854 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:34,879 Speaker 1: new like she lined up the release for her new 855 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:39,080 Speaker 1: music video with this finale, this reunion. Um, we we 856 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 1: love Candice, We love Candice, and actually, okay, so a 857 00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 1: lot of actually got some blowback because they were like, 858 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:48,799 Speaker 1: you know that NICKI, you know that Candice has said 859 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 1: homophobic things. And I was like, you know, at a 860 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 1: certain point, like some people have more growing to do 861 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:59,040 Speaker 1: than others. And it's also like I don't watch this show, 862 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 1: and every single time someone appears on my screen, I 863 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 1: stop and say hold on before I like them, let 864 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,520 Speaker 1: me go search through their Twitter. I'm sorry, but that's 865 00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:09,160 Speaker 1: not my bag. There was a moment where it was 866 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:14,240 Speaker 1: brought up that LGBTQ people face persecution in this country 867 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:18,840 Speaker 1: in a very general sense, and all of the housewives agreed, 868 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 1: nodded in acknowledgement. You get a single on Candice saying whatever, 869 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 1: it's sad like I feel like she is maybe growing. 870 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 1: I feel like we're I hope we are all in 871 00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:37,760 Speaker 1: this place now in this conversation just about cancelation in general, 872 00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:42,279 Speaker 1: where it's like, I, whatever, we why why do I 873 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,759 Speaker 1: why do we talk about this? I'm sorry, let's cut 874 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 1: this part out. I don't think we need to. I mean, like, 875 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:50,720 Speaker 1: the thing is just like, look, okay, we're watching the show, 876 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 1: and we're watching the characters as they are on the show, 877 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 1: and our opinion is this podcast stands the character of 878 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: Candice on the show. Okay, so sorry, like, but I'm 879 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 1: not looking through her fucking tax returns and her Twitter 880 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,360 Speaker 1: and I don't actually know her as a person. I'm sorry, 881 00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,840 Speaker 1: I don't follow it that closely. I watched the television show. 882 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 1: So if you're gonna unsubscribe from this podcast because we 883 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:16,799 Speaker 1: like Candice, that says more about you, darling, dear, it's fine, 884 00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:20,440 Speaker 1: it's fine. Um, where is your income? Roach is one 885 00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:23,520 Speaker 1: of the classic tweets, and I couldn't believe she said 886 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:25,320 Speaker 1: it to a woman that she was giving birth. But also, 887 00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:28,200 Speaker 1: you know what, that's actually good television and that I like, 888 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 1: where is your income, Where is your income? Roach? And what? 889 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:35,279 Speaker 1: And what did she say to me? You should be 890 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,799 Speaker 1: you should be as grateful. You should you should she said, 891 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 1: you should be grateful. You should have been more grateful. 892 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:44,799 Speaker 1: And also, of course I kind of she was trespassing, 893 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 1: like Candice gives and gives, it gives you the moment. 894 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:50,440 Speaker 1: I did like that. Andy went up to her at 895 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:52,319 Speaker 1: the end and was like, I have to give you 896 00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:54,840 Speaker 1: props because that was really cool and everyone is supporting 897 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 1: you and you sounds great and you did that, like 898 00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 1: you know, y'all. I thought it was a great episode. 899 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 1: Was Nikki was really I thought it the whole time 900 00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 1: about what Wendy was saying. It was like she was 901 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 1: watching this woman push all of these other women off 902 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,279 Speaker 1: a cliff and then she was like, Oh sh it, 903 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 1: it's gonna be my turns soon. I have a feeling 904 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:15,279 Speaker 1: they edited a lot out. I have a feeling that 905 00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 1: she went harder and they took it out because they 906 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,480 Speaker 1: were like, I mean, we can't. She was so easy 907 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 1: on Giselle in the final edit that I'm like, she 908 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,400 Speaker 1: must have gone harder. It really came off that she 909 00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 1: was team Giselle, and I was like, how can you 910 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 1: watch the show. But like a lot of people are 911 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,759 Speaker 1: a lot of people are team Giselle readers even a 912 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:36,799 Speaker 1: team Giselle, and we respect that we disagree. We think 913 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,880 Speaker 1: Giselle is a horrible person. I do it last at 914 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:44,680 Speaker 1: least as depicted. Okay, and again that's what we're talking about. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 915 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 1: I don't know Giselle's report card from third grade. I 916 00:49:48,280 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 1: don't know. So I feel that we would be remiss 917 00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:05,360 Speaker 1: to not mention that, like, if this is going to 918 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 1: be a culture podcast, like we truly have lost one 919 00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 1: of the great artists of all time, who is like 920 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:15,840 Speaker 1: the Shakespeare of musical theater. It's been said, and I 921 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:19,920 Speaker 1: would agree, which is Stephen Sondheim. I mean, we just 922 00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:24,799 Speaker 1: have to like truly give respect because that was a 923 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,040 Speaker 1: hard one, even though he was ninety one. I believe 924 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 1: that is a hard one to not have on planet Earth. 925 00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 1: This is so, this is that, this is I'm just 926 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 1: saying this because it felt like a beautiful coincidence in 927 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 1: my life. The news broken. It came up on my 928 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 1: phone that he had passed away, Like the moment it 929 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,600 Speaker 1: was like reported, I think, not that it matters, but 930 00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 1: like I was sitting in the theater for House of 931 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:48,759 Speaker 1: Gucci by myself, and then and the trailers came up 932 00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 1: and it was West Side Story like that, Like I 933 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 1: was like, I was watching, I was listening and watching 934 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:58,320 Speaker 1: like his work as like he whatever, no, it's funny, 935 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,440 Speaker 1: I learned as I learned that he was you you 936 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:03,399 Speaker 1: bring that up.

Like and also what I love this 1027 00:55:51,120 --> 00:55:54,600 Speaker 1: is my this is such bullshit like whatever like Instagram 1028 00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:57,760 Speaker 1: like inspiring quote, but like he really didn't like fully 1029 00:55:57,800 --> 00:56:00,520 Speaker 1: like come into his like whatever, like he gives a 1030 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:02,240 Speaker 1: lot of people might put it like in his forties 1031 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 1: and fifties, Like that's what I think is Also, I 1032 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:07,920 Speaker 1: don't know, it's a cool thing to think about maybe 1033 00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:10,960 Speaker 1: like yeah, it's just like I think I think Sunday 1034 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 1: came Sunday the Park came out, like I think when 1035 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 1: he was like late forties, early fifties, that makes a 1036 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 1: lot of sense to me. I mean, I can't imagine 1037 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:23,920 Speaker 1: being capable artistically and creatively of the things he was 1038 00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 1: at a young age. But then it's like, you know, 1039 00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:29,040 Speaker 1: and by the way, did you have you watched the 1040 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:32,480 Speaker 1: movie Tech Tick Boom? I haven't yet, and I'm kind 1041 00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:34,319 Speaker 1: of waiting for like I'm saving it for the right woman, 1042 00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:36,799 Speaker 1: which I know is so annoying to hear. It is 1043 00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 1: another fabulous mind right now. I watched it. It's also 1044 00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:43,799 Speaker 1: on Netflix. Andrew Garfield is so incredible in it. Yeah, 1045 00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:46,600 Speaker 1: I mean, he's so amazing in it. And the movie 1046 00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 1: is of course about Jonathan Larson. You know, it's about 1047 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:56,520 Speaker 1: him basically struggling to become successful and you know, etcetera. 1048 00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:02,920 Speaker 1: And he revers and idolizes Stephen Sondheim, and the movie 1049 00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 1: like treats Stephen Sondheim as this like huge character and 1050 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 1: basically it ends with him getting a note from Stevenson 1051 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 1: Teime that encourages him. And so this obviously, and Jonathan 1052 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:19,440 Speaker 1: Larson would end up writing Rent obviously, and that went on. 1053 00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:22,800 Speaker 1: I think believe the story is he died on the 1054 00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:25,720 Speaker 1: night of or the night before the first preview of 1055 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:29,320 Speaker 1: Rent off Broadway or whatever, um and it would obviously 1056 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 1: go on to revolutionized modern musical theater. But the fact 1057 00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 1: that this movie reveres him so, and that these people 1058 00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 1: in musical theater revere himself, and that this movie is 1059 00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:41,360 Speaker 1: coming out now, it just does like I feel like 1060 00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 1: this very odd, eerie, perfect storm of you have to 1061 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: be you know, grateful for both the life that he 1062 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:52,440 Speaker 1: lived in the art that he gave, but also that 1063 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 1: he gets to really be truly celebrated, like by his 1064 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 1: legacy at his work at the time. If you're if 1065 00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:03,920 Speaker 1: there's anything to be thankful about, are grateful about when 1066 00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:07,920 Speaker 1: someone passes, at least that at least it's like that recognition, 1067 00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 1: because I don't think like, as an artist and as 1068 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:14,280 Speaker 1: a creator and as someone who has influenced so many, 1069 00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:17,080 Speaker 1: there's anything better than that to know that as we leave, 1070 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 1: there's this love for you, you you know, so just very special, 1071 00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 1: very special. I think we can talk about either survivor 1072 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 1: or selling Sunset. I want, I want, I want to 1073 00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 1: talk about both. And that's actually that's actually something I 1074 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 1: put my foot down a ut please, that's the last 1075 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 1: culture last culture flavor, because um wait, I just want 1076 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:42,320 Speaker 1: to tell you, did you see that the Grammy nominations 1077 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,000 Speaker 1: came out and there was the scandal I have been 1078 00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,080 Speaker 1: following the Grammys? Okay, So the Grammy nominations came out, 1079 00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:50,480 Speaker 1: like and of course, the first episode of this podcast 1080 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:53,040 Speaker 1: is called the Grammys, so we always have to like 1081 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 1: pay respects to our origins here. So the Grammy nominations 1082 00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 1: came out and like there was ten nominees in all 1083 00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:02,080 Speaker 1: the general categories and it's like mostly Olivia Rodrigo and 1084 00:59:02,120 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 1: she'll like sweep and then the Taste and yeah yeah, 1085 00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 1: so um, basically it came out that there was originally 1086 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:12,240 Speaker 1: only going to be eight nominees for Album of the 1087 00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:14,040 Speaker 1: Year and then they decided to add two more at 1088 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:16,440 Speaker 1: the last second, and it was Donna by Kanye West 1089 00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:19,760 Speaker 1: and Evermore by Taylor Swift.

It's just such flops. 1096 00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 1: And you know, I guess like ultimately all for nothing, 1097 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,960 Speaker 1: because you know, Olivia and driver's license is gonna walk 1098 00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 1: out with all the awards.

She's channeling, Yes, 1144 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:23,520 Speaker 1: that's what she said, and so like I'm trying to 1145 01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:27,120 Speaker 1: like do that more. Does that sound so stupid? No, 1146 01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:29,200 Speaker 1: I'm trying. I'm trying to Like I'm trying to do 1147 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:31,120 Speaker 1: that when I'm like writing, when I'm like trying to 1148 01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:34,480 Speaker 1: come up with like an idea, I'm like, let me 1149 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 1: just think less, let me just like think up like 1150 01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:38,880 Speaker 1: I don't not not that that's the direction of it, 1151 01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 1: like like crown chakra, like let me just like connect 1152 01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:45,080 Speaker 1: with the bigger thing. And I don't know, I'm like 1153 01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:47,560 Speaker 1: she easily like getting into that. No, I mean a 1154 01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:51,520 Speaker 1: d percent. I'm like it's whatever. People can drag me 1155 01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:58,120 Speaker 1: for this if they want. But even today, like Henry 1156 01:02:58,160 --> 01:03:00,280 Speaker 1: and I were on the songs, and I think I 1157 01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: had a more difficult time with the first like three 1158 01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:04,120 Speaker 1: or four, just because I was getting back into it. 1159 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:10,240 Speaker 1: Also it's Christmas is and that's the first song. So 1160 01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:12,080 Speaker 1: that's that's that one, and then it goes right into 1161 01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:15,280 Speaker 1: the second song, which is vocally difficult, and then ballad 1162 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:17,200 Speaker 1: start and so there's But there's a song that I 1163 01:03:17,240 --> 01:03:19,920 Speaker 1: do six in my show, which is my favorite thing 1164 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:23,040 Speaker 1: I've ever written, as the fame thing I've ever done. 1165 01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:26,280 Speaker 1: It's called Every Christmas Eve. It's my Mrs Claus song, 1166 01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:30,280 Speaker 1: and it's actually one of the more vocally tough ones. 1167 01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:32,520 Speaker 1: But I said to Henry after we did it, because 1168 01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:34,640 Speaker 1: I felt really good about the way I went today, 1169 01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:37,520 Speaker 1: and he I could tell he did too, And I 1170 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:39,360 Speaker 1: was like, you know what's easy about that one is 1171 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:43,640 Speaker 1: because you really just try to tell the story to 1172 01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:48,560 Speaker 1: feel it and like honestly do do little lyrical analysis 1173 01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 1: in it, like even if that was my own writing, 1174 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:53,760 Speaker 1: just like to try to like think less about like 1175 01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:56,280 Speaker 1: whether or not your voice feels good, or whether or 1176 01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,560 Speaker 1: not you're being funny, or whether or not whatever, and 1177 01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:01,240 Speaker 1: it's just actually a lot more simple. It's about just 1178 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:04,200 Speaker 1: like like just getting the work across, you know what 1179 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:06,680 Speaker 1: I mean, just just because it is actually all about 1180 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 1: telling stories like when you're a comedian, when you're a 1181 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:14,400 Speaker 1: performer or whatever, like just focusing on the articulation of 1182 01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:18,880 Speaker 1: it and less about the bullshit that is, like you know, 1183 01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:21,760 Speaker 1: whether the notes are right, or whether like or whether 1184 01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,320 Speaker 1: or whether I'm on my mark or whatever. This thing, 1185 01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:26,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, yes, that's annoying, but like it's it's like 1186 01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:29,880 Speaker 1: fru fru or whatever, but it actually does help you 1187 01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:33,400 Speaker 1: free up and discover things as a performer. I love 1188 01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:36,120 Speaker 1: that you're incorporating this in your own work as you 1189 01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:38,840 Speaker 1: lead up to your shows. I also just want to 1190 01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:44,920 Speaker 1: say this reminded me of the way that Taylor Swift 1191 01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:48,560 Speaker 1: has talked about songwriting. Do you know this where She's like, 1192 01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:51,760 Speaker 1: the best way I can describe songwriting is there's like 1193 01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 1: a magical cloud in front of you, and you're supposed 1194 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:57,280 Speaker 1: to catch it before it goes away, Like like you're 1195 01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:01,280 Speaker 1: supposed to capture this thing. You're supposed to capture this 1196 01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:03,720 Speaker 1: like magical thing that you can't touch, you can't grap, 1197 01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:05,760 Speaker 1: you gotta like get it down on like paper or 1198 01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:09,520 Speaker 1: something like before before it leaves you. And I'm like, 1199 01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:11,960 Speaker 1: that is kind of maybe the same fur fuit thing 1200 01:05:11,960 --> 01:05:14,880 Speaker 1: where it's like you're supposed to like commune with this 1201 01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:17,320 Speaker 1: thing that comes to you that passes by and you 1202 01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:20,560 Speaker 1: have to have to like get it down before it 1203 01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:24,000 Speaker 1: leaves you. I don't I don't know about you, but almost, 1204 01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:28,520 Speaker 1: I'm feeling twenty two almost And you know that she 1205 01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:30,880 Speaker 1: wrote that in a state of channeling. Oh my god, 1206 01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 1: it's rural culture number thirty nine. When um, but it's 1207 01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:43,680 Speaker 1: so rare that when I labor over something or work 1208 01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:46,640 Speaker 1: on something really hard that it ends up being really good. Meanwhile, 1209 01:05:46,760 --> 01:05:49,080 Speaker 1: it's like when I chipped something out or like something 1210 01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:53,120 Speaker 1: just it is so much well, I don't know. It's 1211 01:05:53,160 --> 01:05:54,640 Speaker 1: just like when I think about the things I'm really 1212 01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:57,560 Speaker 1: proud of the things that I'm like still performing now, 1213 01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:01,240 Speaker 1: it's usually stuff that came very leads me. Yeah, I know, 1214 01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:04,080 Speaker 1: I know. Oh I love that, And that's such a 1215 01:06:04,120 --> 01:06:06,920 Speaker 1: good feeling. It's such a good feeling when it just 1216 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:08,640 Speaker 1: kind of flows out and for some people like it 1217 01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:10,600 Speaker 1: just happens. I feel like you are one of those 1218 01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:13,800 Speaker 1: people where it just really does it flows out of you. 1219 01:06:14,200 --> 01:06:17,480 Speaker 1: When it happens. It happens when, But I'm saying it's 1220 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:19,000 Speaker 1: not about when it happens or when it doesn't. I'm 1221 01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:22,760 Speaker 1: saying it happens often for you. And that is what's 1222 01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 1: beautiful for me. Like it's I don't know, there's there 1223 01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:29,520 Speaker 1: this figot is fucked because I'm like, that's it's a 1224 01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:32,080 Speaker 1: slow drip. You have to create all the time though 1225 01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,680 Speaker 1: that I think that's that's the difference, Just like this 1226 01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 1: is this is what I've never gotten about us and 1227 01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 1: now and I'll just be totally transparent about of this. 1228 01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:45,920 Speaker 1: You guys, basically to create the thing, it's so hard, 1229 01:06:46,280 --> 01:06:49,760 Speaker 1: like it's one day, I know, And that to me 1230 01:06:49,880 --> 01:06:51,600 Speaker 1: is like I get, I get that it's like a 1231 01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:54,840 Speaker 1: scheduling thing, and I get that that's just the way 1232 01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:58,120 Speaker 1: it works. But I just always thought about, like what 1233 01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:00,800 Speaker 1: if somebody has a brilliant idea and of course, like 1234 01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:02,920 Speaker 1: things happen in the news and that it gets channeled 1235 01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:05,000 Speaker 1: through to the cold open and stuff, and that's not 1236 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:08,560 Speaker 1: not a part of the show. But so like creativity 1237 01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:12,240 Speaker 1: is so not necessarily like that, and you'd have to 1238 01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 1: be such a specific type of person to be able 1239 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 1: to just be like, Okay, sitting down to do this 1240 01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:18,240 Speaker 1: during a lot of time, and this is what I'm 1241 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:19,800 Speaker 1: going to get it right, you know, which I know 1242 01:07:19,880 --> 01:07:22,920 Speaker 1: is not as basic as it is. But no, no, no, no, um. 1243 01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 1: The thing that happens most often, and I think maybe 1244 01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:30,200 Speaker 1: the saddest thing that happens, is you have a great 1245 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:34,080 Speaker 1: idea but then and this is what you're saying, basically, 1246 01:07:34,120 --> 01:07:38,040 Speaker 1: but like you burn it that week because you just 1247 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:41,280 Speaker 1: didn't execute you didn't get the right time to like 1248 01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 1: execute it the right way. And so then like you 1249 01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:45,600 Speaker 1: do it in front of all your co workers on 1250 01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:50,720 Speaker 1: Wednesday and then fucking bombs and then instinct on it, 1251 01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:52,760 Speaker 1: and then more likely than not, you're never gonna like 1252 01:07:53,400 --> 01:07:54,800 Speaker 1: use that idea again when it might have been a 1253 01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 1: perfectly great idea because I this is my example. Nudie 1254 01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:01,760 Speaker 1: and I wrote a sketch last season where it was 1255 01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:04,160 Speaker 1: all about it was me and John Maliney playing a 1256 01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:08,040 Speaker 1: couple and our thing was that we kept swallowing in 1257 01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:11,760 Speaker 1: the middle of sentences like it just it just and 1258 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:15,080 Speaker 1: then like which like, I like, I'm really hung up 1259 01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:18,000 Speaker 1: about this because like it could have been, it could 1260 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:19,760 Speaker 1: have been something great and we just didn't get it 1261 01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:21,800 Speaker 1: the first time, and now like I can never do it. 1262 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:24,160 Speaker 1: I kind of feel like I can't bring it up again. 1263 01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:26,479 Speaker 1: It would be iconic if you did that. Every table read, 1264 01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 1: like just every table read tried to make the swallowing 1265 01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:32,120 Speaker 1: in the middle of sentences thing happened, like would actually 1266 01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:35,920 Speaker 1: be oh, because it's the dumbest day. It's like half 1267 01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:38,439 Speaker 1: an idea. But it didn't. It happen with Vanessa though, Like, 1268 01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:40,720 Speaker 1: isn't it a thing? Like, Oh, how do it happen? 1269 01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:43,240 Speaker 1: Everyone has one of these stories, like, everyone has one 1270 01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:46,200 Speaker 1: of these. Everyone has their like white Whale or you know, 1271 01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:48,960 Speaker 1: or that you keep trying to get in or not 1272 01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:50,880 Speaker 1: that you keep trying to that you can't. You can't 1273 01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:53,400 Speaker 1: like you can't you know capture, I don't know, you 1274 01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 1: can't like find it. And so that's mine for now. 1275 01:08:57,600 --> 01:08:59,840 Speaker 1: Um My other one is I want to see that 1276 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,920 Speaker 1: Julie and I have written several sequels at this point 1277 01:09:02,920 --> 01:09:06,120 Speaker 1: to Sarah Lee, and none of them have gotten picked. 1278 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,559 Speaker 1: I can't believe that that's true. It's crazy to me. 1279 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:11,679 Speaker 1: Do you want to do you want to know something? Yes, 1280 01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:15,000 Speaker 1: I won't reveal to who, but I had to run 1281 01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:17,280 Speaker 1: it by one of the producers when Shalami was hosting. 1282 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:19,400 Speaker 1: I was like who I was, like Julie and I 1283 01:09:19,439 --> 01:09:22,639 Speaker 1: wrote a follow up to Sarah Lee for Timothy. It's 1284 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:25,000 Speaker 1: called Chef Boy r D. It's really we think it's 1285 01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:29,479 Speaker 1: really funny. Um. And then this producer says, you know, 1286 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:31,400 Speaker 1: I think we've done it too many times, and I 1287 01:09:31,479 --> 01:09:34,880 Speaker 1: was like, We've only done it once. And I think 1288 01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:36,720 Speaker 1: what he meant was I brought it to table too 1289 01:09:36,720 --> 01:09:41,720 Speaker 1: many times, which is another thing. I'm like, oh well, now, 1290 01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:44,600 Speaker 1: like I ruined this, like what one of my proudest 1291 01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:47,840 Speaker 1: like pieces of writing.

The readers have given me everything. 1345 01:12:41,920 --> 01:12:44,880 Speaker 1: Do you think i'd be selling out these shows? There's 1346 01:12:44,920 --> 01:12:47,439 Speaker 1: no way. I know they're all readers. I'm talking about 1347 01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 1: them like I'm trying to be careful about not making 1348 01:12:51,560 --> 01:12:55,559 Speaker 1: them sound like fucking like pop star stands. That's no. 1349 01:12:56,960 --> 01:12:58,760 Speaker 1: They know who they are. First of all, we just 1350 01:12:58,920 --> 01:13:00,639 Speaker 1: fired them, so I have to be nice to them. 1351 01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:03,200 Speaker 1: We have to be nice to them. They've all fed, 1352 01:13:05,160 --> 01:13:09,439 Speaker 1: they lost their jobs. Now, okay, so before we start 1353 01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:11,280 Speaker 1: crying because of the readers, we have talked about selling 1354 01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:14,960 Speaker 1: Sunset and then we have this is a long episode, 1355 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:19,800 Speaker 1: and that's fine selling Sunset. I haven't evenished. I will say, 1356 01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:22,479 Speaker 1: what are your basic general reactions? Because I have a few, 1357 01:13:22,760 --> 01:13:25,960 Speaker 1: you know, Okay, this is I at a state of 1358 01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:29,479 Speaker 1: half sleep, have this realization. It's not a realization, but 1359 01:13:29,520 --> 01:13:31,160 Speaker 1: like I think everyone knows at this point that it's 1360 01:13:31,160 --> 01:13:34,600 Speaker 1: like the most mindless show that's ever been made. But 1361 01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:37,880 Speaker 1: I really do think like there's something pretty amazing about 1362 01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:40,960 Speaker 1: like Adam de Velo between like the Hills and Selling Sunset, 1363 01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:44,160 Speaker 1: Like it feels like they're speaking a different language. Does 1364 01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:46,360 Speaker 1: that make sense? Like they're they're they're they're talking, they're 1365 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:49,880 Speaker 1: using a different vocabulary. I think I think they must all. 1366 01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:53,280 Speaker 1: I think when you're on the show, the producers hand 1367 01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:55,920 Speaker 1: you a sheet of paper and on that paper it 1368 01:13:56,040 --> 01:14:00,800 Speaker 1: says one hundred words total, and they tell the producers say, 1369 01:14:00,960 --> 01:14:03,719 Speaker 1: you can only whatever comes out of your mouth has 1370 01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:06,760 Speaker 1: to be from this list of one hundred words. You 1371 01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:11,760 Speaker 1: cannot say anything besides these words. That actually is a 1372 01:14:13,280 --> 01:14:15,160 Speaker 1: and that is my realization with And I love that 1373 01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:18,760 Speaker 1: one of those words is escrow. You know what I mean, 1374 01:14:19,439 --> 01:14:23,960 Speaker 1: Escrow conceded, Like when Emma said, like when Emma, Emma 1375 01:14:24,000 --> 01:14:26,240 Speaker 1: just celebrated in her chair and by lifting up her 1376 01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:30,960 Speaker 1: waif thin arms and she goes, well I'm in escrow, 1377 01:14:31,240 --> 01:14:34,080 Speaker 1: and they were like escrow and they were just screaming 1378 01:14:34,080 --> 01:14:37,000 Speaker 1: the word escrow. And I was like, wow, I'm obsessed 1379 01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:41,479 Speaker 1: with each and every one of these young women. Young women. Um. 1380 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:44,640 Speaker 1: I think I think Vanessa and Emma are great additions. 1381 01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:48,559 Speaker 1: As Emma. I can't tell if I'm on her side 1382 01:14:48,640 --> 01:14:51,040 Speaker 1: or not. She's the smallest face in the world. She 1383 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:53,479 Speaker 1: has the smallest, the tiniest chin. I was just gonna 1384 01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 1: say she has a tiny little head. She's like in 1385 01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:59,000 Speaker 1: the best way. She's like that alien and men in 1386 01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:01,720 Speaker 1: black with the tiny head, but a gorgeous version of 1387 01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:04,559 Speaker 1: gorgeous version who runs a vegan food company, which we 1388 01:15:04,880 --> 01:15:09,320 Speaker 1: stand weighs seventy six pounds. I do love that she 1389 01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:11,800 Speaker 1: like runs like a vegan company, and yet she still 1390 01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:14,920 Speaker 1: takes private jets. It's like, okay, well think that they 1391 01:15:14,960 --> 01:15:18,400 Speaker 1: cancel that beautifully. I love that she should marry Leonardo DiCaprio. 1392 01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:22,439 Speaker 1: They're all made for each other. They love her. Vanessa 1393 01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:25,519 Speaker 1: is iconic. Loved her sob story in the beginning that 1394 01:15:25,560 --> 01:15:28,000 Speaker 1: her sister god and then she became a real estate 1395 01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:30,280 Speaker 1: agent because of her, and now she's sort of like 1396 01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:33,000 Speaker 1: little Christine. She's a villain at least in at least 1397 01:15:33,040 --> 01:15:37,080 Speaker 1: in the part that we're on. Okay, should we play 1398 01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:39,840 Speaker 1: this game now that now that we have it? Because 1399 01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:41,840 Speaker 1: you and I checked in earlier in the week when 1400 01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:43,920 Speaker 1: Selling Sunset Season four was about to drop, and you 1401 01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:46,160 Speaker 1: were like are you You were like you said I 1402 01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:48,720 Speaker 1: was a Cruschelle, which I took offense to.

I'm I also, I'm sorry 1405 01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:56,760 Speaker 1: I took offense to you calling me Mary. And here's 1406 01:15:56,760 --> 01:15:58,600 Speaker 1: what I'll say.

And the first season 1412 01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:18,479 Speaker 1: she she was kind of the most likable person. She 1413 01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:20,960 Speaker 1: was the most grounded, and you can that's the one. 1414 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:22,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sorry, I yeah, just like just someone 1415 01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:25,800 Speaker 1: that like the audience surrogate, like, oh, like this is 1416 01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:28,840 Speaker 1: the person who like is most like me sitting at home. 1417 01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:33,040 Speaker 1: Her breakdown at the dog party was truly iconic. I mean, 1418 01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:35,479 Speaker 1: the dog's birthday party and she goes, you know, Jason, 1419 01:16:35,560 --> 01:16:37,280 Speaker 1: we spent a lot of money on this.

And I was just like, this is 1423 01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:51,800 Speaker 1: absolutely unhinged, all because Christine came to the dogs. Every 1424 01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:55,719 Speaker 1: time Christine enters a room, I laugh and applaud. Okay, 1425 01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:59,280 Speaker 1: I'm on episode six and at least five different times 1426 01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:03,519 Speaker 1: this has happened.

And that'll be like the second 1453 01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:41,120 Speaker 1: or third one he's dated in the office, because obviously 1454 01:18:41,120 --> 01:18:43,200 Speaker 1: he was with Mary. They owned that dog together, that 1455 01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:46,320 Speaker 1: the birthday party. Every time I say these words, I'm like, 1456 01:18:46,479 --> 01:18:49,760 Speaker 1: I can't believe it. I just watched the episode where 1457 01:18:49,800 --> 01:18:54,800 Speaker 1: Krishell and Simulo are like about to fuck, which he 1458 01:18:54,880 --> 01:18:57,200 Speaker 1: did look really hot. Oh yeah, of course he's a 1459 01:18:57,280 --> 01:19:01,120 Speaker 1: very attractive person. I just like, so, I don't know 1460 01:19:01,240 --> 01:19:05,320 Speaker 1: what they keep cutting to Jason. Now watch watch they 1461 01:19:05,400 --> 01:19:07,760 Speaker 1: keep cutting to Jason, who like notices that you're right, 1462 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:10,840 Speaker 1: they do keep cutting to Jason. That's so funny. So 1463 01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:14,599 Speaker 1: they're building it into the narrative because eventually they get together. 1464 01:19:14,920 --> 01:19:18,160 Speaker 1: Christl Stouse every time she walks she she opens double 1465 01:19:18,200 --> 01:19:20,760 Speaker 1: doors and walks out to a balcony and smiles at 1466 01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:23,640 Speaker 1: the sun. I'm like, you are the protagonists, aren't you? 1467 01:19:23,840 --> 01:19:27,160 Speaker 1: Snow white? Rachel Zegler move over. I actually I couldn't 1468 01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:30,080 Speaker 1: stand Rachelle before this season. I'm like, okay, cool, Like, 1469 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:33,000 Speaker 1: I'm kind of with you. I like that she's standing 1470 01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:35,320 Speaker 1: up for herself. When they were like, okay, guys, group meetings, 1471 01:19:35,320 --> 01:19:37,080 Speaker 1: she'll be hired back to Vina, she was like, no, 1472 01:19:37,240 --> 01:19:39,559 Speaker 1: I don't think so. She was really rude to me, 1473 01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:41,880 Speaker 1: and I don't fucking like it. And she said when 1474 01:19:41,920 --> 01:19:44,000 Speaker 1: she said like I don't, I don't fuck I fucking 1475 01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:46,120 Speaker 1: think so. I fucking don't agree. I was like, come on, 1476 01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:48,880 Speaker 1: christ I actually love that. And actually, what a what 1477 01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:51,240 Speaker 1: a perfect play on her part to be like, Okay, 1478 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,120 Speaker 1: I've been a little too guileless on this show. Let 1479 01:19:53,160 --> 01:19:55,839 Speaker 1: me actually like grow a spine. And like when Davina 1480 01:19:55,920 --> 01:19:58,360 Speaker 1: apologizes to her, oh I didn't see that yet. I'm 1481 01:19:58,400 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 1: so excited. Becau said she didn't want their apology right. 1482 01:20:02,040 --> 01:20:04,879 Speaker 1: It's a great moment for Chrish like she handles it perfectly. 1483 01:20:05,280 --> 01:20:09,400 Speaker 1: I'm really proud of her. I'm really excited. Anyway, It's 1484 01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:12,160 Speaker 1: the dumbest show ever made, but we love it. Christine 1485 01:20:12,360 --> 01:20:16,120 Speaker 1: is television, of course. But she was on the cover 1486 01:20:16,160 --> 01:20:18,599 Speaker 1: of some magazine I forget which, but they called her 1487 01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:22,679 Speaker 1: reality TVs Queen of Camp. Let's cut it out. Let's 1488 01:20:22,680 --> 01:20:24,920 Speaker 1: stop throwing that word around again. It feels like it's 1489 01:20:24,920 --> 01:20:28,280 Speaker 1: twenty nine mac Gala all over again. She's not a camp. 1490 01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:31,559 Speaker 1: She's not camp. Let's like, like, I don't know, does 1491 01:20:31,600 --> 01:20:34,600 Speaker 1: poor Susan sant have to like come back from the 1492 01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:37,599 Speaker 1: dead to like happing to you guys what this is. 1493 01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:39,960 Speaker 1: Poor Susan Sons might have to come back from the 1494 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:43,960 Speaker 1: dead and genuinely school of the Girls because Christine is 1495 01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,400 Speaker 1: not a camp. Christine is and it's it's like, I 1496 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:49,080 Speaker 1: don't know, it's it's not because it's not bad like 1497 01:20:49,240 --> 01:20:53,040 Speaker 1: Christine is. It's just like poor taste, like she's obviously 1498 01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:56,920 Speaker 1: like she has like good taste and things. She looks 1499 01:20:56,920 --> 01:21:01,240 Speaker 1: like a cartoon, like a fantasy of femininity. I'm thinking, 1500 01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 1: really hard is the chair person is the little chair 1501 01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:10,800 Speaker 1: pers campum No? Because like, okay, my cliffs notes distillation 1502 01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:15,519 Speaker 1: of the definition. I'm getting this around. People will take 1503 01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:18,280 Speaker 1: issue with this, I'm sure, but it's like it's it's 1504 01:21:18,320 --> 01:21:21,880 Speaker 1: I'm celebrating bad taste. It's like celebrating bad taste as 1505 01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:25,120 Speaker 1: if it was something in good taste. Essentially, Yeah, like 1506 01:21:25,160 --> 01:21:28,400 Speaker 1: the chairpersonal chairperson, it's not it's it's catch. It's not camp. 1507 01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:31,800 Speaker 1: It's like, oh was in this ironic Like camp is 1508 01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:33,960 Speaker 1: not supposed to know its own irony. That's why like 1509 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:36,360 Speaker 1: Mommy Dearist is camp because like everyone on that movie 1510 01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:38,639 Speaker 1: thought they were making the best biopic of all time, 1511 01:21:39,560 --> 01:21:42,320 Speaker 1: which is also MyH House of Gucci is not camp exactly, 1512 01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:45,679 Speaker 1: and so that's what it is. Like, it's like it's 1513 01:21:45,720 --> 01:21:49,719 Speaker 1: something that's in bad taste either being perceived as something 1514 01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:52,800 Speaker 1: in good like it's something like that takes itself seriously. Basically. 1515 01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:57,040 Speaker 1: That's another like bastardization of the definition. That's definitely morphed 1516 01:21:57,080 --> 01:21:58,479 Speaker 1: over time. And I think a lot of people have 1517 01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:01,360 Speaker 1: different definitions. But if you're using that definition, then you 1518 01:22:01,400 --> 01:22:03,840 Speaker 1: cannot call Christine and Quinn camp because I feel that 1519 01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:06,880 Speaker 1: she actually is in one control of what she's doing 1520 01:22:07,120 --> 01:22:08,960 Speaker 1: and when she comes in and sits down with Emma 1521 01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:11,320 Speaker 1: and she goes, I just really wanted to talk, and 1522 01:22:11,479 --> 01:22:14,919 Speaker 1: he proposed to me. He did. He proposed to me, actually, 1523 01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:18,840 Speaker 1: And like she's funking with these girls, and like when 1524 01:22:18,880 --> 01:22:21,839 Speaker 1: Mary has a meltdown and Christine's like, why is she upset? 1525 01:22:21,960 --> 01:22:24,639 Speaker 1: Like she knows exactly why she's upset when she comes 1526 01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:27,519 Speaker 1: in with her you know, twenty nine inch hair, Like 1527 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:31,760 Speaker 1: she is in complete control. And I actually believe that 1528 01:22:31,840 --> 01:22:34,840 Speaker 1: she's a cool person. I'm sure she's like, oh, I 1529 01:22:34,880 --> 01:22:38,040 Speaker 1: think she is like the most aspirational person on the show, 1530 01:22:38,120 --> 01:22:41,400 Speaker 1: despite being like so out of touch and her wealth 1531 01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:44,000 Speaker 1: or whatever. It's like you want to be you want 1532 01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:46,280 Speaker 1: to be like her in a way, right, like you. 1533 01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:48,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to be like Krishell or Mary or 1534 01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:51,120 Speaker 1: anybody else. Yeah, I don't want to certainly want to 1535 01:22:51,160 --> 01:22:53,320 Speaker 1: be spinning my wheels that hard. Also, some of the 1536 01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 1: other girls are falling off from me, like I heard. 1537 01:22:55,360 --> 01:22:57,160 Speaker 1: I know, Heather gets up, gets b v or in 1538 01:22:57,200 --> 01:23:00,840 Speaker 1: the narrative as it goes, but I'm losing Heather a 1539 01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:03,200 Speaker 1: little bit. Heather has a big moment at the end 1540 01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:05,120 Speaker 1: of the season, like the finale is like her and 1541 01:23:05,800 --> 01:23:10,720 Speaker 1: Terek Okay, need that. Um, but and so does she. 1542 01:23:11,200 --> 01:23:13,599 Speaker 1: But um, like I love Heather by the way, Oh, 1543 01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:20,200 Speaker 1: I feel I identified with other playmate legend love she 1544 01:23:20,240 --> 01:23:22,560 Speaker 1: was a playmate. Yeah, were you to say? I was 1545 01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:26,160 Speaker 1: just just gonna say, like, um, you know, Christine Quinn 1546 01:23:26,320 --> 01:23:28,320 Speaker 1: is just completely in control of what she's doing. And 1547 01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:30,840 Speaker 1: I believe that she's cool. And I believe that if 1548 01:23:30,880 --> 01:23:33,479 Speaker 1: these other girls actually don't like her, they're not playing 1549 01:23:33,520 --> 01:23:36,360 Speaker 1: the game as well as her. And here's what I'll say. 1550 01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 1: I'm really excited for Selling Tampa. Oh right, yeah, that'll 1551 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 1: be fun. Oh I got the cast. The cast looks 1552 01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:46,160 Speaker 1: very cool. I mean it's gonna be very cool. And 1553 01:23:46,200 --> 01:23:48,479 Speaker 1: also like people are like l O L Tampa, but 1554 01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:51,160 Speaker 1: like you have to remember, like I mean that is 1555 01:23:51,200 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 1: that is also a competitive real estate market, like like 1556 01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:56,680 Speaker 1: you know, you might turn your nose up because like 1557 01:23:56,720 --> 01:23:58,840 Speaker 1: you think of certain things, but like this actually is 1558 01:23:58,840 --> 01:24:00,920 Speaker 1: gonna be very cool. Basically for everyone that doesn't know, 1559 01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:05,200 Speaker 1: there's a Selling Sunset spinoff called Selling Tampa, which is 1560 01:24:05,320 --> 01:24:09,080 Speaker 1: all black women in Tampa. They they're at the same 1561 01:24:09,760 --> 01:24:13,720 Speaker 1: real estate firm. And I actually watched a um it 1562 01:24:13,760 --> 01:24:17,080 Speaker 1: is is it is it opentime? It's not, but but 1563 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:19,280 Speaker 1: it's like it's like speaking to and they do the 1564 01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:22,120 Speaker 1: same thing, but it's a a totally different vibe. And 1565 01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:23,840 Speaker 1: I'm really excited for it. I think it comes out 1566 01:24:23,880 --> 01:24:27,320 Speaker 1: in December, mid December. Can't wait, very excited for that. 1567 01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:30,040 Speaker 1: Wait before we before we go to I don't think so, honey, 1568 01:24:30,040 --> 01:24:34,120 Speaker 1: we have to s Oh my god. I mean I 1569 01:24:34,160 --> 01:24:38,800 Speaker 1: told you this was crazy amazing top to bottom, like 1570 01:24:39,080 --> 01:24:43,880 Speaker 1: so well edited. I want to say, like just I mean, 1571 01:24:44,040 --> 01:24:48,000 Speaker 1: the threads all sort of are so tied together in 1572 01:24:48,040 --> 01:24:50,839 Speaker 1: the end in the best way, tied up, tied together whatever, 1573 01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:53,560 Speaker 1: and like I told you over text today, like I 1574 01:24:53,560 --> 01:24:55,200 Speaker 1: think it's like two episode I caught up on the 1575 01:24:55,200 --> 01:24:59,800 Speaker 1: plane home from Thanksgiving, like the last three episodes, I'm like, wow, 1576 01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:01,799 Speaker 1: this is when I realized this is a great season. 1577 01:25:01,840 --> 01:25:03,519 Speaker 1: And don't I don't know my Survivor seasons too well, 1578 01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:05,240 Speaker 1: but I feel like this is one of my more 1579 01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:08,880 Speaker 1: favorite ones. This is an amazing season. And I think 1580 01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:12,120 Speaker 1: that this episode that just happened last week and there's 1581 01:25:12,120 --> 01:25:14,519 Speaker 1: obviously a new one tonight. It was the episode where 1582 01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:20,559 Speaker 1: spoiler alert, spoiler spoiler spoiler fashion, yeah Shan gets eliminated. Yeah, 1583 01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:23,120 Speaker 1: um and she basically was like the main character I believe, 1584 01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:27,680 Speaker 1: along with Ricard two in the season, and really it 1585 01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:31,960 Speaker 1: came down to Ricard deciding to get Shan out even 1586 01:25:31,960 --> 01:25:34,680 Speaker 1: though um they have been each other's number one's like, 1587 01:25:34,760 --> 01:25:38,240 Speaker 1: there's this narrative in the beginning of the episode that actually, 1588 01:25:38,280 --> 01:25:40,160 Speaker 1: it can't really be the two of them at the 1589 01:25:40,200 --> 01:25:43,519 Speaker 1: top two because they're both too good. So there is 1590 01:25:43,520 --> 01:25:48,040 Speaker 1: this interesting chess game being played between them that unfortunately 1591 01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 1: Shan stops playing and Ricard never stops playing. And the 1592 01:25:54,479 --> 01:26:00,120 Speaker 1: moment the whole season changed was Ricard saying, I thing, 1593 01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:02,960 Speaker 1: today is the day that I send like that, we 1594 01:26:03,040 --> 01:26:06,200 Speaker 1: send Shan home, like he decided, like he had to 1595 01:26:06,240 --> 01:26:08,840 Speaker 1: decide that. And I want to give credit to Erica 1596 01:26:08,920 --> 01:26:13,880 Speaker 1: for figuring out the plan. Erica is aleep, but it was, 1597 01:26:13,960 --> 01:26:16,679 Speaker 1: but Erica is the mastermind behind me. It's it's Ricardo, 1598 01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:19,280 Speaker 1: it's Ricard's idea. But Erica is the one who's like, 1599 01:26:19,320 --> 01:26:21,639 Speaker 1: here's how we're gonna do with three three Shand votes, 1600 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:25,920 Speaker 1: three Leono votes, then it goes to a tiebreaker and uh, 1601 01:26:25,960 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 1: if Shann plays her idol, then it's Leona who goes home. 1602 01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:31,479 Speaker 1: If she doesn't, then Shannon goes home like that is 1603 01:26:32,120 --> 01:26:35,519 Speaker 1: like that was all Erica. She's a great player. I 1604 01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:38,040 Speaker 1: think that she we have not given her enough credit. 1605 01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:40,120 Speaker 1: I think she might be going home soon because I 1606 01:26:40,120 --> 01:26:42,120 Speaker 1: think she has a huge target on her back. But 1607 01:26:42,960 --> 01:26:44,200 Speaker 1: people are on her, and then I think they are 1608 01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:47,160 Speaker 1: gonna be onto Ricard. Now this is the thing. There's 1609 01:26:47,240 --> 01:26:49,320 Speaker 1: there's a there's a vacuum of power in a way, 1610 01:26:49,680 --> 01:26:52,800 Speaker 1: like like the tribe is sort of as splintered as 1611 01:26:53,040 --> 01:26:55,759 Speaker 1: as it's ever been now without Shan, without the person 1612 01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:59,640 Speaker 1: who is like arranging the things. Now you have like 1613 01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:02,160 Speaker 1: the any and Deshaun alliance being the only like real 1614 01:27:02,280 --> 01:27:05,280 Speaker 1: like two hander though, what's that's left? Right? And I 1615 01:27:05,920 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 1: think that something that is going to hurt them is 1616 01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:13,200 Speaker 1: the fact that Leona is now off board, you know 1617 01:27:13,200 --> 01:27:16,599 Speaker 1: what I mean? Like so I think she she could 1618 01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:19,559 Speaker 1: she she either could make something happen or she'll be next. 1619 01:27:19,640 --> 01:27:21,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. I wonder how much further Heather could go, 1620 01:27:21,920 --> 01:27:24,720 Speaker 1: just because narratively she hasn't been on the show that much. 1621 01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:28,120 Speaker 1: I'm wondering what that means for her. Um. I wonder 1622 01:27:28,160 --> 01:27:30,559 Speaker 1: if she'll figure into the narrative starting now. I just 1623 01:27:30,960 --> 01:27:33,439 Speaker 1: know that's not really how these television seasons are built. 1624 01:27:33,960 --> 01:27:38,439 Speaker 1: I feel it's regards to lose or Zanders to lose, 1625 01:27:38,960 --> 01:27:45,559 Speaker 1: and I find myself rooting for DeShawn because of the way, well, 1626 01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:47,479 Speaker 1: the way the narrative is pulling out. Like I will say, 1627 01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:50,879 Speaker 1: I actually shed tears many different times of this episode. 1628 01:27:51,280 --> 01:27:53,720 Speaker 1: I was crying at the end. I was crying when 1629 01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:56,880 Speaker 1: Deshan got emotional during his confessional about it being such 1630 01:27:56,920 --> 01:27:59,320 Speaker 1: a hard year for black people and that they wanted 1631 01:27:59,360 --> 01:28:01,040 Speaker 1: to do a quote un it for the culture and 1632 01:28:01,080 --> 01:28:02,960 Speaker 1: the four of them it's together to the end. I 1633 01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:05,759 Speaker 1: was trying if the sacrifices were made when they realized 1634 01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:08,520 Speaker 1: that was probably not possible. I was crying when Leanna 1635 01:28:08,720 --> 01:28:12,160 Speaker 1: said that meant more to her than the game because 1636 01:28:12,160 --> 01:28:14,599 Speaker 1: they connected over their hood and their blackness. On the hill, 1637 01:28:14,840 --> 01:28:20,200 Speaker 1: I was like, this is classic Survivor because it's amazing gameplay, 1638 01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:25,000 Speaker 1: but you care about the characters and it's emotional storytelling, 1639 01:28:25,320 --> 01:28:30,000 Speaker 1: but it's also really good gameplay. And I think ultimately 1640 01:28:30,080 --> 01:28:33,240 Speaker 1: what's happening is these it's at the point in the 1641 01:28:33,280 --> 01:28:38,639 Speaker 1: season where the contestants are getting played by their own 1642 01:28:38,640 --> 01:28:42,040 Speaker 1: emotions and a lot the ones that are forgetting to 1643 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:46,040 Speaker 1: keep playing and the ones that are making emotional concessions 1644 01:28:46,320 --> 01:28:50,080 Speaker 1: are losing. And that I think made an emotional concession. 1645 01:28:50,840 --> 01:28:53,640 Speaker 1: I think that if she were smart, she could have 1646 01:28:53,680 --> 01:28:55,880 Speaker 1: gotten out of that. I mean, anytime you go home 1647 01:28:55,880 --> 01:28:58,200 Speaker 1: with an idol in your pocket, you're not thinking. She 1648 01:28:58,240 --> 01:29:00,920 Speaker 1: said in her like her last confession, when she after 1649 01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:03,439 Speaker 1: she got voted out, she was like, I had an idol. Yep, 1650 01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:06,040 Speaker 1: like she was. You could tell she was the worst 1651 01:29:06,439 --> 01:29:08,519 Speaker 1: crushed by that. Oh my god, because it's so hard 1652 01:29:08,560 --> 01:29:10,000 Speaker 1: to get one, and then you leave with an idol. 1653 01:29:10,120 --> 01:29:12,960 Speaker 1: But the thing too is just like the way it's going. 1654 01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:15,120 Speaker 1: And this is where I get a little will woo again. 1655 01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:18,080 Speaker 1: But this is season forty one, and I do think 1656 01:29:18,280 --> 01:29:22,360 Speaker 1: like that. I think it's a reset. But so season 1657 01:29:22,400 --> 01:29:24,880 Speaker 1: forty was Winners at War. If you call all the 1658 01:29:24,920 --> 01:29:27,320 Speaker 1: way back to season one, we had a queer man 1659 01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:31,760 Speaker 1: named Richard and where when the first and now we 1660 01:29:31,800 --> 01:29:34,800 Speaker 1: are going to have a queer man named Ricard when 1661 01:29:35,080 --> 01:29:40,320 Speaker 1: because Ricard Regard is the quarification of the name Richard, 1662 01:29:40,760 --> 01:29:45,479 Speaker 1: and Richard has an extra letter H and H in 1663 01:29:45,560 --> 01:29:49,479 Speaker 1: lowercase is upside down four and four if you take 1664 01:29:49,520 --> 01:29:54,439 Speaker 1: away four from forty one is one Swift numerology of 1665 01:29:54,439 --> 01:29:57,679 Speaker 1: it all is you're very Taylor Taylor, very tailor sorry 1666 01:29:57,720 --> 01:30:00,040 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift energy.

That which that which, 1670 01:30:12,120 --> 01:30:14,160 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's the type of thing that makes 1671 01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:17,600 Speaker 1: me say that which.

Also, I have to 1689 01:31:22,320 --> 01:31:23,879 Speaker 1: tell you, and I have to tell all the readers. 1690 01:31:23,960 --> 01:31:29,360 Speaker 1: I know, like whatever Australian Survivor season four. People have 1691 01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:30,960 Speaker 1: been in my dams being like, you have to have 1692 01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:34,400 Speaker 1: to have really you have to watch Australian season four. 1693 01:31:34,479 --> 01:31:38,040 Speaker 1: It's a sit, it's cuckoo bananas long, but it is 1694 01:31:38,120 --> 01:31:41,880 Speaker 1: so gratifying. I'm talking, you get in my damns about it, readers. 1695 01:31:41,920 --> 01:31:44,400 Speaker 1: I'm ready to engage about Australia. So, however, season four, 1696 01:31:44,560 --> 01:31:47,760 Speaker 1: not five. Season four, Season four, Um, there's one more 1697 01:31:47,760 --> 01:31:51,800 Speaker 1: thing I wanted to say about Survive before we move on. 1698 01:31:51,840 --> 01:31:54,800 Speaker 1: I don't think so, honey, but it is. It's not 1699 01:31:54,840 --> 01:31:59,120 Speaker 1: coming to me. I think, oh okay, because I think 1700 01:31:59,120 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 1: we got the preview for the new st episode for 1701 01:32:01,479 --> 01:32:03,799 Speaker 1: the one the week of the twenty nine of November, 1702 01:32:04,280 --> 01:32:06,600 Speaker 1: where there's another twist that gets introduced. But I was like, 1703 01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:08,360 Speaker 1: I think the reason why it's been great the last 1704 01:32:08,360 --> 01:32:11,160 Speaker 1: few episodes because they have they introduced all the twists 1705 01:32:11,200 --> 01:32:13,280 Speaker 1: early on, and then they just let the rest of 1706 01:32:13,320 --> 01:32:15,320 Speaker 1: the season play out the way it is supposed to do. 1707 01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:17,439 Speaker 1: I guess, but I don't need many more twists, but 1708 01:32:17,479 --> 01:32:19,000 Speaker 1: I think I think we are going to get more 1709 01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:22,760 Speaker 1: because Jeff had that advantage like on the bench that 1710 01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:24,759 Speaker 1: no one found, and then like there's gonna be another 1711 01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:27,040 Speaker 1: like thing that he throws in, and I'm kind of 1712 01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:29,800 Speaker 1: nervous about with that. It's gonna be. My thing with 1713 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:33,040 Speaker 1: the twist is like I always feel like with Survivor, 1714 01:32:33,160 --> 01:32:36,120 Speaker 1: you have to play every twist as if it's terrain. 1715 01:32:36,479 --> 01:32:38,519 Speaker 1: Like I feel like in Survivor, you know there's gonna 1716 01:32:38,520 --> 01:32:40,720 Speaker 1: be twists, and if the show throws into twist like 1717 01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:43,040 Speaker 1: that's just terrain, you have to play like. I don't 1718 01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:45,439 Speaker 1: ever think like, oh, they shouldn't have done that. A 1719 01:32:45,479 --> 01:32:47,639 Speaker 1: couple of times I've liked them less than other times. 1720 01:32:48,680 --> 01:32:53,920 Speaker 1: Every twist, every idol, every advantage, every setback, every tribe switch, 1721 01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:56,320 Speaker 1: like you have to play that like it's terrain. You 1722 01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:58,559 Speaker 1: know you're entering into a game where these types of 1723 01:32:58,600 --> 01:33:02,000 Speaker 1: things happen. So you can't be like, oh, well fuck that, 1724 01:33:02,080 --> 01:33:04,280 Speaker 1: blah blah blah and like kick your kick your toes 1725 01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:06,400 Speaker 1: in the sand. Once they happen, like you have to 1726 01:33:06,439 --> 01:33:09,479 Speaker 1: play them as terrain. And if you are the type 1727 01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:11,360 Speaker 1: of person that's going to win or destined to win, 1728 01:33:11,400 --> 01:33:17,600 Speaker 1: you'll win no matter what the situation is. Go off off. 1729 01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:19,879 Speaker 1: You've been going off all episode. And I have to say, 1730 01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:25,200 Speaker 1: I really really am in awe, mama. This is when 1731 01:33:25,240 --> 01:33:28,000 Speaker 1: we do culture catch up because sometimes we have to 1732 01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:31,880 Speaker 1: get together and get into it. Can I just say 1733 01:33:32,280 --> 01:33:34,920 Speaker 1: you can always say I think the dynamic for almost 1734 01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:37,479 Speaker 1: all the culture catchups. And I don't say this as 1735 01:33:37,520 --> 01:33:41,200 Speaker 1: a way of like putting myself down truly. I think 1736 01:33:41,200 --> 01:33:44,479 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm learning from you. I learned, so I'm 1737 01:33:44,520 --> 01:33:50,120 Speaker 1: in classes in session, I'm learning hold on, And I 1738 01:33:50,120 --> 01:33:53,320 Speaker 1: can I just say I think some people have been 1739 01:33:53,400 --> 01:33:56,160 Speaker 1: like reaching out to be like you sound like you're 1740 01:33:56,200 --> 01:33:58,360 Speaker 1: really putting yourself down and you're not. You're questioning what 1741 01:33:58,400 --> 01:33:59,760 Speaker 1: you say before it comes out of your mouth on 1742 01:33:59,800 --> 01:34:01,840 Speaker 1: the podcasts, and I just want to say, but I'm like, no, 1743 01:34:02,280 --> 01:34:04,519 Speaker 1: this is just like the way my brain works. But 1744 01:34:04,760 --> 01:34:07,880 Speaker 1: you've always been like that what putting myself down? And 1745 01:34:07,960 --> 01:34:10,160 Speaker 1: I'm not putting yourself down. You always check in with 1746 01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:12,320 Speaker 1: yourself before you say things like it's it's a part 1747 01:34:12,320 --> 01:34:16,519 Speaker 1: of your process. It's always you always say something beautiful. No, 1748 01:34:17,640 --> 01:34:20,799 Speaker 1: I believe me, my sense of self my self worth 1749 01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:23,240 Speaker 1: is like at an all time high. That's not what 1750 01:34:23,360 --> 01:34:26,080 Speaker 1: this is. I had some blow moments over the summer, 1751 01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:29,120 Speaker 1: as it is documented on this podcast, But overall, I'm 1752 01:34:29,160 --> 01:34:31,439 Speaker 1: I'm in a great place, a lot of a lot 1753 01:34:31,479 --> 01:34:34,360 Speaker 1: of a lot of good things going on that makes 1754 01:34:34,360 --> 01:34:36,960 Speaker 1: me feel very fulfilled and I'm lucky. And it's not 1755 01:34:37,000 --> 01:34:42,080 Speaker 1: whenever I like I'm kind of fortunatewardly, yeah, whenever, I'm 1756 01:34:42,160 --> 01:34:44,600 Speaker 1: like figuring it out as I don't think I'm that 1757 01:34:45,120 --> 01:34:47,760 Speaker 1: well spoken of a person as people would like to 1758 01:34:47,760 --> 01:34:50,080 Speaker 1: think I am. And so I'm just I'm figuring out 1759 01:34:50,080 --> 01:34:51,920 Speaker 1: what I'm saying as I say it, which I think 1760 01:34:52,120 --> 01:34:55,760 Speaker 1: is okay, everybody calmed down. You have a verbal process, 1761 01:34:56,080 --> 01:35:00,400 Speaker 1: which is you, and I mean I'd rather be sometimes 1762 01:35:00,439 --> 01:35:01,960 Speaker 1: I'd rather be like you than me, who is like, 1763 01:35:02,040 --> 01:35:04,240 Speaker 1: let me come in strong and say this thing, and 1764 01:35:04,280 --> 01:35:07,080 Speaker 1: then I end up saying symposium instead of compendium. You 1765 01:35:07,080 --> 01:35:09,760 Speaker 1: know what, I mean that that I end up calling 1766 01:35:09,800 --> 01:35:12,160 Speaker 1: it a Shipparelli dress and not a Scaparelli dress. You 1767 01:35:12,160 --> 01:35:15,720 Speaker 1: know what I mean. It just happens. It's fine, everybody. 1768 01:35:15,760 --> 01:35:17,519 Speaker 1: This is I think this is coming from the same 1769 01:35:17,560 --> 01:35:20,839 Speaker 1: place as when we tell you we don't know anything. 1770 01:35:21,400 --> 01:35:23,519 Speaker 1: We don't know how to say words, and we don't 1771 01:35:23,520 --> 01:35:25,040 Speaker 1: know my words. I don't know my heart, but do 1772 01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:28,679 Speaker 1: you know my heart? And I can I say I'm 1773 01:35:28,720 --> 01:35:32,280 Speaker 1: moving closer to that truth every day. I don't know 1774 01:35:32,320 --> 01:35:34,840 Speaker 1: my words, but I do know my heart. I don't 1775 01:35:34,880 --> 01:35:39,960 Speaker 1: know to hear you say that roll reversal literally, sister, Like, 1776 01:35:40,360 --> 01:35:46,120 Speaker 1: can I say something period? Period one hundred? I'm sorry 1777 01:35:46,200 --> 01:35:59,439 Speaker 1: period period. Do you believe that it's time or I 1778 01:35:59,479 --> 01:36:01,439 Speaker 1: don't think so, honey. I do believe that it's time 1779 01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:02,960 Speaker 1: for I don't think so. Well. We really got through 1780 01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:05,479 Speaker 1: so much, coach. I know. I think this is one 1781 01:36:05,479 --> 01:36:07,240 Speaker 1: of our best culture catch ups. Can I just say, 1782 01:36:08,320 --> 01:36:10,400 Speaker 1: and here's the deal. People are going to think that 1783 01:36:10,439 --> 01:36:13,440 Speaker 1: I forgot something, but it's part of I don't think so, honey. Okay, 1784 01:36:13,880 --> 01:36:16,160 Speaker 1: I can't think of anything you might have forgotten. Do 1785 01:36:16,200 --> 01:36:18,960 Speaker 1: you have your phone this time? Yes? Okay, because I've 1786 01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:20,960 Speaker 1: been self timing the last couple of weeks and it's 1787 01:36:20,960 --> 01:36:24,200 Speaker 1: felt wrong and I apologize about and it will never 1788 01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:29,639 Speaker 1: happen again. I left my phone. Okay, this are you ready? Okay, 1789 01:36:29,640 --> 01:36:34,400 Speaker 1: I'm happy he pressed against his little bit. It's okay, 1790 01:36:34,640 --> 01:36:37,000 Speaker 1: you didn't do anything. Well, I'm sorry that it literally 1791 01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:41,000 Speaker 1: I did. It's okay, fine, drink some tea after this. Okay, 1792 01:36:41,360 --> 01:36:43,160 Speaker 1: this is Matt Rodgers. I don't think so many time 1793 01:36:43,200 --> 01:36:45,800 Speaker 1: starts now. I don't think so, honey, that the way 1794 01:36:45,880 --> 01:36:48,559 Speaker 1: The Morning Show season two ended is Jennifer Addiston turned 1795 01:36:48,600 --> 01:36:52,439 Speaker 1: into Joe Rogan. Unfortunately, the way that this is the 1796 01:36:52,600 --> 01:36:56,080 Speaker 1: second season of The Morning Show ends as we watched 1797 01:36:56,160 --> 01:37:01,240 Speaker 1: Jennifer Addiston cough, sputter, cry, and sweat for roughly five 1798 01:37:01,320 --> 01:37:05,519 Speaker 1: minutes before she basically gets better by becoming Joe Rogan 1799 01:37:05,560 --> 01:37:09,400 Speaker 1: on a streaming service. This is what happens in the show. 1800 01:37:10,080 --> 01:37:13,479 Speaker 1: I have watched this season all along. And here's the thing. 1801 01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:16,439 Speaker 1: Maybe I do think so, honey, because I don't know 1802 01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:19,599 Speaker 1: what the heightened could have been beyond that to see 1803 01:37:19,920 --> 01:37:22,920 Speaker 1: Jennifer Aniston tell her streaming viewers that despite the fact 1804 01:37:22,960 --> 01:37:25,280 Speaker 1: that she is problematic to the m degree, they can 1805 01:37:25,320 --> 01:37:27,639 Speaker 1: either get on the Alex Leevy train or get the 1806 01:37:27,680 --> 01:37:32,240 Speaker 1: funk off and basically pop off Joe Rogan status. I 1807 01:37:32,280 --> 01:37:34,559 Speaker 1: don't know. I guess I don't think so, honey, the 1808 01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:38,720 Speaker 1: third great Emmy's for all the third greatest. I have 1809 01:37:38,800 --> 01:37:41,960 Speaker 1: to say. They went off The Morning Show season two, 1810 01:37:42,680 --> 01:37:45,080 Speaker 1: and that's one minute chin to say. I think I 1811 01:37:45,160 --> 01:37:48,280 Speaker 1: know the reason why when you texted me that that 1812 01:37:48,360 --> 01:37:51,280 Speaker 1: Jennifer Aniston's character of the Alex Levy becomes Joe Rogan 1813 01:37:51,320 --> 01:37:55,240 Speaker 1: at the end the season to finale, I did not 1814 01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:58,639 Speaker 1: like that. It didn't hit me the same way as 1815 01:37:58,800 --> 01:38:01,479 Speaker 1: when you would describe to me a true third grader plot, 1816 01:38:01,520 --> 01:38:03,840 Speaker 1: because this doesn't feel third grade. You know what it was? 1817 01:38:03,960 --> 01:38:06,200 Speaker 1: The third graders don't know who Joe Rogan is. The 1818 01:38:06,200 --> 01:38:10,800 Speaker 1: third grader here they do. That's how famous Joe Rogan is. 1819 01:38:12,040 --> 01:38:14,400 Speaker 1: Joe Rogan is so huge and podcast and this is 1820 01:38:14,400 --> 01:38:17,920 Speaker 1: where we th grader listens to the Spotify originals. Every 1821 01:38:17,960 --> 01:38:20,599 Speaker 1: third grader has a Spotify account and they can listen 1822 01:38:20,640 --> 01:38:24,640 Speaker 1: to Joe Rogan's podcast on Spotify. Sorry, we were gonna say, 1823 01:38:24,880 --> 01:38:28,559 Speaker 1: you forget about the vast medium that is podcasting. You 1824 01:38:28,720 --> 01:38:31,040 Speaker 1: don't know the power that we hold having this podcast. 1825 01:38:31,280 --> 01:38:37,120 Speaker 1: Joe Rogan has the power of about one million lost culturist. Okay, 1826 01:38:37,320 --> 01:38:41,599 Speaker 1: he last culturist. Joe Rogan harnesses the power of one 1827 01:38:41,680 --> 01:38:46,840 Speaker 1: million lost culturist. I to basically be able to control 1828 01:38:46,880 --> 01:38:50,680 Speaker 1: the minds of even the third graders who turned America's 1829 01:38:50,720 --> 01:38:55,280 Speaker 1: Sweetheart Jennifer Aniston into Joe Rogan because this show is 1830 01:38:55,400 --> 01:39:01,720 Speaker 1: so obsessed with cancel culture, and I have to confirm that. 1831 01:39:01,880 --> 01:39:06,120 Speaker 1: In the post credits, like episode breakdown, Reese weather Spoon 1832 01:39:06,200 --> 01:39:12,320 Speaker 1: says as herself in discussing the season, She goes, and 1833 01:39:12,360 --> 01:39:15,960 Speaker 1: I love Reese, She's my favorite. I think that in 1834 01:39:15,960 --> 01:39:19,800 Speaker 1: a way, all the characters get canceled, canceled by their jobs, 1835 01:39:19,840 --> 01:39:23,799 Speaker 1: canceled by you know, the social media, canceled by life 1836 01:39:24,160 --> 01:39:27,759 Speaker 1: like and I'm just like, oh my god, the show 1837 01:39:27,920 --> 01:39:32,360 Speaker 1: is so third graders with d NC parents. I can't 1838 01:39:32,400 --> 01:39:36,160 Speaker 1: even get over. Also, what else happens, oh, Reese the Spoon, 1839 01:39:36,160 --> 01:39:38,160 Speaker 1: who plays one of the most famous women in America. 1840 01:39:38,200 --> 01:39:41,880 Speaker 1: Bradley Jackson morning show co host walks down the street 1841 01:39:41,920 --> 01:39:44,160 Speaker 1: with flyers in her hand, missing persons for her brother, 1842 01:39:44,200 --> 01:39:46,000 Speaker 1: and it's like, have you seen my brother? Have you 1843 01:39:46,040 --> 01:39:50,839 Speaker 1: seen my brother like he's a dog. So that ultimately 1844 01:39:50,840 --> 01:39:52,640 Speaker 1: Billy Crude up at the end of it says I 1845 01:39:52,720 --> 01:39:57,720 Speaker 1: love you, and remember she lesbian now, but he's like, 1846 01:39:57,800 --> 01:39:59,800 Speaker 1: I love you and this is what people say, right, 1847 01:39:59,840 --> 01:40:01,800 Speaker 1: I love you. And it's like he's a robot saying 1848 01:40:01,840 --> 01:40:03,439 Speaker 1: I love him for the first time. That was the 1849 01:40:03,520 --> 01:40:08,240 Speaker 1: third grade moment. But I've never seen camp like watching 1850 01:40:08,439 --> 01:40:11,000 Speaker 1: and I do use it, and it is this is 1851 01:40:11,000 --> 01:40:13,519 Speaker 1: no morning show, is we can say, according to Matt 1852 01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:16,040 Speaker 1: Rogers and Boon Yang is camp camp. We all know this. 1853 01:40:16,320 --> 01:40:19,960 Speaker 1: She was. She truly almost died of COVID and then 1854 01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:22,120 Speaker 1: Mark Duplas comes over lies to her that he has 1855 01:40:22,120 --> 01:40:24,040 Speaker 1: COVID two you find out he doesn't, So basically he's 1856 01:40:24,040 --> 01:40:26,840 Speaker 1: just exposing himself so he can be with her, and 1857 01:40:26,880 --> 01:40:29,040 Speaker 1: she gets a streaming service ub A Plus. She gets 1858 01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:31,519 Speaker 1: a show on the streaming service, and she pops off 1859 01:40:31,600 --> 01:40:34,920 Speaker 1: and is truly firing off like Joe Rogan being like, 1860 01:40:35,000 --> 01:40:36,560 Speaker 1: they fucking care if you like me at all? I 1861 01:40:36,600 --> 01:40:38,879 Speaker 1: am who I am? You fucking pieces of ship watching 1862 01:40:38,880 --> 01:40:41,400 Speaker 1: this dead on my train or get the funk off? 1863 01:40:41,600 --> 01:40:44,439 Speaker 1: So this is she said sta It was the last 1864 01:40:44,439 --> 01:40:48,160 Speaker 1: words of the episode. Oh my God, like every email 1865 01:40:48,200 --> 01:40:53,439 Speaker 1: from April that's stay safe and stay saying that's so stupid, 1866 01:40:53,760 --> 01:40:56,200 Speaker 1: but this is my thing. None of that sounds like 1867 01:40:56,240 --> 01:40:59,320 Speaker 1: third grader you know who. It sounds like college. No, 1868 01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:03,680 Speaker 1: that teacher, it sounds like the teacher. I think the 1869 01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:06,320 Speaker 1: teacher took a pass at the finale because she was like, 1870 01:41:06,920 --> 01:41:09,200 Speaker 1: you know what, I want to put my own little 1871 01:41:09,880 --> 01:41:13,760 Speaker 1: impromater on this, and she she wrote that ending that's 1872 01:41:13,800 --> 01:41:15,320 Speaker 1: my theory. I know this is your theory, and I 1873 01:41:15,360 --> 01:41:17,360 Speaker 1: don't want to mess with your theory because it's the funniest. 1874 01:41:17,400 --> 01:41:20,360 Speaker 1: It's truly one of the funniest bits of comedy from 1875 01:41:21,160 --> 01:41:24,160 Speaker 1: I can say that as as someone who's receiving this 1876 01:41:24,200 --> 01:41:27,479 Speaker 1: comedy from you, like this whole bit, the whole thing 1877 01:41:27,560 --> 01:41:29,559 Speaker 1: show was written by a class room of third graders 1878 01:41:30,680 --> 01:41:33,960 Speaker 1: is your theory. I just think my contribution is that 1879 01:41:34,040 --> 01:41:36,320 Speaker 1: for the finale, because it does stand out a little 1880 01:41:36,360 --> 01:41:39,160 Speaker 1: bit to me. I thought about that. It breaks the 1881 01:41:39,200 --> 01:41:41,920 Speaker 1: pattern a little bit of the morning show, you know what. 1882 01:41:41,960 --> 01:41:45,479 Speaker 1: It was, so another part of the the sort of 1883 01:41:46,640 --> 01:41:49,040 Speaker 1: like I guess we're gonna call it like the the 1884 01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:52,000 Speaker 1: Greater World of the third grades. Just remember I said 1885 01:41:52,000 --> 01:41:54,720 Speaker 1: the teachers believe in the room to go get drunk, right, 1886 01:41:54,760 --> 01:41:57,519 Speaker 1: And so she came back at the end of the 1887 01:41:57,560 --> 01:42:01,240 Speaker 1: week and said she's been through a ender, and she said, 1888 01:42:01,439 --> 01:42:04,599 Speaker 1: let me at this fucking show. Alright there, so this show, 1889 01:42:04,640 --> 01:42:13,400 Speaker 1: hold on a second, there's my fucking okay, yeah, fuck you. 1890 01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:18,519 Speaker 1: She's sweating dead, stay safe and us I forgot about 1891 01:42:18,520 --> 01:42:20,599 Speaker 1: the storyline. And he says, I love you to her. Yeah, 1892 01:42:20,600 --> 01:42:24,880 Speaker 1: that right back to her. If you like me, fuck 1893 01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:31,720 Speaker 1: you fuck off. Telling the streaming service Okay, he's got 1894 01:42:31,720 --> 01:42:42,759 Speaker 1: going to great. Okay, send She had send a direct 1895 01:42:42,840 --> 01:42:46,000 Speaker 1: line Tim Cook and then Tim tells everybody over an 1896 01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:51,000 Speaker 1: Apple TV. Anyways, that's the story of That's the glory 1897 01:42:51,120 --> 01:42:56,520 Speaker 1: of Morning Show Season two. Truly a standing ovation. Okay, 1898 01:42:56,560 --> 01:42:58,240 Speaker 1: are you ready for your I don't think so, honey. 1899 01:42:58,360 --> 01:43:01,520 Speaker 1: I have one. It's a little it's a little self indulgent, 1900 01:43:02,640 --> 01:43:05,599 Speaker 1: not that most of mine aren't, but this is something 1901 01:43:05,640 --> 01:43:07,640 Speaker 1: that's specific to me. But it has to do with 1902 01:43:07,680 --> 01:43:09,880 Speaker 1: the culture. And I think I have to say this. 1903 01:43:10,640 --> 01:43:15,360 Speaker 1: We're gonna we're gonna get into it, and a decidedly 1904 01:43:15,640 --> 01:43:18,680 Speaker 1: bow and Yang. I don't think so, honey, this is 1905 01:43:18,720 --> 01:43:20,759 Speaker 1: Bowen yangs I don't think so, honey, and his time 1906 01:43:20,880 --> 01:43:23,920 Speaker 1: starts now. I don't think so, honey, Me being fan 1907 01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:26,840 Speaker 1: cast as Box in the Wicked movie, because this is 1908 01:43:26,880 --> 01:43:30,000 Speaker 1: something that you know will never happen, and I didn't 1909 01:43:30,080 --> 01:43:32,680 Speaker 1: think about before. But now that you're all telling me 1910 01:43:32,720 --> 01:43:35,080 Speaker 1: that I should play Box, I'm like, I guess I 1911 01:43:35,120 --> 01:43:37,719 Speaker 1: want to play back. But guess what, may I remind 1912 01:43:37,760 --> 01:43:40,160 Speaker 1: you it will never happen, and so you're setting me 1913 01:43:40,280 --> 01:43:43,559 Speaker 1: up for emotional despair that I can't be a part 1914 01:43:43,600 --> 01:43:49,520 Speaker 1: of this wonderful project starting to actors who I adore, 1915 01:43:49,560 --> 01:43:53,400 Speaker 1: directed by a director who ire. I can't be involved 1916 01:43:53,479 --> 01:43:56,240 Speaker 1: in this magical? Do you know how iconic it would 1917 01:43:56,280 --> 01:43:58,200 Speaker 1: be if I got to play the tin man? Bitch? 1918 01:43:58,479 --> 01:44:01,759 Speaker 1: You don't, because I'm just a little piece of chattel 1919 01:44:01,840 --> 01:44:04,720 Speaker 1: to you, and you can list me next to fucking 1920 01:44:04,800 --> 01:44:08,120 Speaker 1: oh Audrey McDonald is not a morrible don't do that 1921 01:44:08,160 --> 01:44:09,920 Speaker 1: to me. I'm too fragile for that. I am not 1922 01:44:09,960 --> 01:44:11,720 Speaker 1: in a place in my career where you can do 1923 01:44:11,760 --> 01:44:14,360 Speaker 1: that yet, because I still think of these movies like 1924 01:44:14,400 --> 01:44:17,160 Speaker 1: you do, I'm fan casting along with you. For me 1925 01:44:17,240 --> 01:44:20,320 Speaker 1: to be fan cast it feels wrong and cruel, and 1926 01:44:20,360 --> 01:44:24,400 Speaker 1: you must stop please, And that's one minute. So here's 1927 01:44:24,439 --> 01:44:28,120 Speaker 1: the deal. I think that if you wanted the audition, 1928 01:44:28,400 --> 01:44:31,720 Speaker 1: all you'd have to do was text. I think you 1929 01:44:31,760 --> 01:44:33,760 Speaker 1: think you should just contact him. But here's the thing. 1930 01:44:34,040 --> 01:44:37,360 Speaker 1: Then you'd have to be that person who likes did that. 1931 01:44:37,880 --> 01:44:39,880 Speaker 1: Then I gotta be like, I gotta go on the 1932 01:44:39,920 --> 01:44:42,439 Speaker 1: fucking talk shows and me like, yeah, I texted him. 1933 01:44:42,479 --> 01:44:44,439 Speaker 1: You know, like, no, I have no No, you can't 1934 01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:46,479 Speaker 1: be thirsty. You can't be like debor messing with Lucy. 1935 01:44:46,600 --> 01:44:47,720 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. You don't want to end 1936 01:44:47,800 --> 01:44:55,000 Speaker 1: up a fate worse than death in the Lucy narrative. Yeah. See, like, 1937 01:44:55,200 --> 01:44:58,240 Speaker 1: I think you'd be fabulous. But I also think they 1938 01:44:58,320 --> 01:45:00,960 Speaker 1: might be trying to cast a little person. I think 1939 01:45:01,000 --> 01:45:03,760 Speaker 1: they should cast all the munchkins as little people. I 1940 01:45:03,800 --> 01:45:08,600 Speaker 1: think that Also, here's another thing.

If you were in the Wicked movie, then 1957 01:46:17,520 --> 01:46:20,320 Speaker 1: you have to be in it, and like you really 1958 01:46:20,360 --> 01:46:23,719 Speaker 1: can't enjoy I know, Yeah, you're right, there's something too, 1959 01:46:23,880 --> 01:46:26,400 Speaker 1: there's something to just being able to like, okay, get this. 1960 01:46:27,800 --> 01:46:30,880 Speaker 1: So I'm seeing Fire Island tomorrow, I know, Oh my god. 1961 01:46:31,040 --> 01:46:33,920 Speaker 1: And so I don't know if this is saying too much, 1962 01:46:33,960 --> 01:46:36,920 Speaker 1: but like very very very small handful of people have 1963 01:46:37,000 --> 01:46:40,880 Speaker 1: seen the movie directors director's cut and apparently it's like 1964 01:46:41,320 --> 01:46:44,360 Speaker 1: really good, and so Joe Joel says, do you want 1965 01:46:44,360 --> 01:46:47,519 Speaker 1: to come see it? And I'm like panicking. I can't 1966 01:46:47,520 --> 01:46:50,080 Speaker 1: believe I'm about to go watch a movie with us 1967 01:46:50,120 --> 01:46:52,160 Speaker 1: in it, Like I'm like, oh my god, oh it'll 1968 01:46:52,200 --> 01:46:54,280 Speaker 1: feel crazy. I'm sure, are you worried that you're not 1969 01:46:54,280 --> 01:46:57,200 Speaker 1: going to be able to like line up your consumption 1970 01:46:57,240 --> 01:46:59,280 Speaker 1: of the movie along with everyone else? Well, I asked 1971 01:46:59,320 --> 01:47:01,680 Speaker 1: Joel about that. I'm like, how long did it take 1972 01:47:01,680 --> 01:47:03,760 Speaker 1: you to settle into watching it? And he was like, 1973 01:47:03,880 --> 01:47:07,600 Speaker 1: pretty much minutes into the movie. I settled into it, 1974 01:47:07,680 --> 01:47:10,080 Speaker 1: like he's well, he said, he said a specific part, 1975 01:47:10,120 --> 01:47:13,400 Speaker 1: but I was like, okay, maybe like as it goes 1976 01:47:13,560 --> 01:47:16,040 Speaker 1: like I'll get into it. But I have a feeling 1977 01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:17,680 Speaker 1: like my experience is gonna I'm gonna watch it the 1978 01:47:17,680 --> 01:47:20,120 Speaker 1: whole first time through and like have my shoulders up here, 1979 01:47:20,479 --> 01:47:22,920 Speaker 1: and then I'll be able to watch it again and 1980 01:47:23,040 --> 01:47:25,120 Speaker 1: again after that because I'll finally be able to like 1981 01:47:25,360 --> 01:47:29,400 Speaker 1: stop seeing myself in it and also stop seeing like 1982 01:47:29,800 --> 01:47:32,080 Speaker 1: everything we know. I just want to try to go 1983 01:47:32,120 --> 01:47:34,360 Speaker 1: in as best as I can and just watch it 1984 01:47:34,400 --> 01:47:36,280 Speaker 1: as a movie and enjoy it, because I know I 1985 01:47:36,320 --> 01:47:38,880 Speaker 1: would and will. But that's the thing about being in 1986 01:47:38,920 --> 01:47:40,560 Speaker 1: this type of stuff, was like I would love to 1987 01:47:40,600 --> 01:47:42,360 Speaker 1: be able to enjoy it that I can't get out 1988 01:47:42,400 --> 01:47:44,880 Speaker 1: of my mind, like that's me up there, like, but 1989 01:47:44,920 --> 01:47:47,960 Speaker 1: you know, you and Joel are very similar in this 1990 01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:50,960 Speaker 1: way where I think he might have gone into his 1991 01:47:51,040 --> 01:47:54,320 Speaker 1: viewing of it with the same feeling and then he 1992 01:47:54,400 --> 01:47:58,040 Speaker 1: ended up being I think, very enthusiastic about it. He was, 1993 01:47:58,479 --> 01:48:01,400 Speaker 1: which is a great signs. No, of course it's the 1994 01:48:01,400 --> 01:48:06,120 Speaker 1: best time because Joel like has very good standards and taste. Anyway, 1995 01:48:06,560 --> 01:48:09,519 Speaker 1: I was texting with Andrew on the director. We love 1996 01:48:09,600 --> 01:48:12,960 Speaker 1: him so much he I was. We were just texting 1997 01:48:12,960 --> 01:48:15,000 Speaker 1: each other catching up. I was like, oh my god, congrats, 1998 01:48:15,040 --> 01:48:16,840 Speaker 1: like it's so it's this is so cool, like I 1999 01:48:16,880 --> 01:48:20,560 Speaker 1: heard the screening went great, and then he was like, okay, 2000 01:48:20,640 --> 01:48:22,880 Speaker 1: and we'll do in New York screening soon and it'll 2001 01:48:22,880 --> 01:48:26,719 Speaker 1: be wonderful. And then over Thanksgiving I texted him like, okay, 2002 01:48:26,720 --> 01:48:28,200 Speaker 1: but when do you think of New York screening will 2003 01:48:28,200 --> 01:48:31,760 Speaker 1: happen now? And then he was like, well, do you 2004 01:48:31,880 --> 01:48:33,840 Speaker 1: want to watch it? He was like, do you want 2005 01:48:33,840 --> 01:48:36,320 Speaker 1: to watch it at the premiere or do you want 2006 01:48:36,320 --> 01:48:38,840 Speaker 1: to watch it with like a small cast and crew 2007 01:48:38,840 --> 01:48:40,960 Speaker 1: group in New York like when we do it at 2008 01:48:41,040 --> 01:48:43,760 Speaker 1: some time. See, that's another thing I'm thinking about is 2009 01:48:43,800 --> 01:48:45,960 Speaker 1: maybe I shouldn't watch him tomorrow. No, I think you 2010 01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:48,479 Speaker 1: should because here's my thing, I told Andrew is like 2011 01:48:49,040 --> 01:48:51,800 Speaker 1: the idea of watching myself for the first time in 2012 01:48:51,840 --> 01:48:56,000 Speaker 1: this with a bunch of other strangers terrifies me because 2013 01:48:57,240 --> 01:49:00,600 Speaker 1: I need to have a sense of like what I think, 2014 01:49:01,439 --> 01:49:03,760 Speaker 1: how I think I did in the movie that is 2015 01:49:03,800 --> 01:49:06,800 Speaker 1: not that informed by what other people think just yet. 2016 01:49:07,080 --> 01:49:10,320 Speaker 1: Yeah okay, Well also then again, Bone, it's not really 2017 01:49:10,439 --> 01:49:13,200 Speaker 1: for I know, I know, I know, but just for 2018 01:49:13,320 --> 01:49:15,640 Speaker 1: my own like vanity, like that's my thing. And then 2019 01:49:15,680 --> 01:49:17,519 Speaker 1: Andrew was like, what do you mean, Like that's your 2020 01:49:17,720 --> 01:49:23,559 Speaker 1: like your job every week is too Like yes, I 2021 01:49:23,600 --> 01:49:25,719 Speaker 1: told him. I was like, no, it's completely different because 2022 01:49:25,960 --> 01:49:31,320 Speaker 1: I have the luxury of getting immediate feedback on how 2023 01:49:31,360 --> 01:49:36,040 Speaker 1: I'm doing in a performance in front of strangers and 2024 01:49:36,080 --> 01:49:37,519 Speaker 1: knowing whether or not I had a good I did 2025 01:49:37,520 --> 01:49:40,559 Speaker 1: a good job. This is something totally foreign to me, 2026 01:49:40,600 --> 01:49:43,760 Speaker 1: where it's something I did like in the summer, and 2027 01:49:44,160 --> 01:49:48,680 Speaker 1: it won't be like received by many people until like 2028 01:49:48,720 --> 01:49:51,760 Speaker 1: a year a year later, Like that is so conceptually 2029 01:49:52,280 --> 01:49:54,800 Speaker 1: crazy to me. Well, I mean, I think Joel is 2030 01:49:54,800 --> 01:49:56,479 Speaker 1: excited about me watching it, So I'm going to go 2031 01:49:56,520 --> 01:49:59,040 Speaker 1: over and see it. So um. And you know, I 2032 01:49:59,320 --> 01:50:02,440 Speaker 1: did ask him any specific questions about certain things and 2033 01:50:02,479 --> 01:50:05,840 Speaker 1: he's been very reassuring. So um, I love that. Anyways, 2034 01:50:05,960 --> 01:50:08,680 Speaker 1: but I'm really excited. I can't believe It's like I'm 2035 01:50:08,720 --> 01:50:12,040 Speaker 1: gonna be a thing. Like I'm excited. I'm so proud 2036 01:50:12,080 --> 01:50:15,280 Speaker 1: of Joel and Andrew, Like just what a what a 2037 01:50:15,400 --> 01:50:19,000 Speaker 1: huge deal. Anyway, much more to come on that one. 2038 01:50:19,840 --> 01:50:23,240 Speaker 1: And this was truly a culture catch up. I mean 2039 01:50:23,320 --> 01:50:27,160 Speaker 1: maybe our best one, our most expensive one. We covered 2040 01:50:27,200 --> 01:50:30,280 Speaker 1: a lot. We got into it. Whenever we at the 2041 01:50:30,360 --> 01:50:32,320 Speaker 1: end of an episode say this is our best one, 2042 01:50:33,760 --> 01:50:38,160 Speaker 1: that's when I say hundred period period. Maybe it's hundred periods, 2043 01:50:38,280 --> 01:50:41,320 Speaker 1: hundred period the title I think we only said what 2044 01:50:42,120 --> 01:50:45,080 Speaker 1: I forgot it spec, so we said, Lady Gaga, is 2045 01:50:45,120 --> 01:50:50,640 Speaker 1: spec specnomenalenal. Now I think it's hundred period, hundred period 2046 01:50:50,360 --> 01:50:56,200 Speaker 1: period period, so he numeral one zero zero period. You 2047 01:50:56,240 --> 01:50:59,040 Speaker 1: want to do numerals, can you tell me right here 2048 01:50:59,240 --> 01:51:01,240 Speaker 1: what you wanted, how you wanted to show up. I 2049 01:51:01,240 --> 01:51:05,280 Speaker 1: think it should be the word hundred period period as 2050 01:51:05,320 --> 01:51:10,240 Speaker 1: in the punctuation mark spain and then period period period, period, 2051 01:51:10,520 --> 01:51:14,280 Speaker 1: unless you want to do hundred period as in the 2052 01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:21,479 Speaker 1: punctuation period exclamation point, yeah, hundred period periods it with 2053 01:51:21,520 --> 01:51:23,400 Speaker 1: Matt and Bowen of course to note that it's a 2054 01:51:23,439 --> 01:51:29,840 Speaker 1: culture catch up and I just the dolls well phenomenal, phenomenal, specnomenal, 2055 01:51:30,120 --> 01:51:33,800 Speaker 1: specomenalo s pecnomenal, did not did not end up winning 2056 01:51:33,800 --> 01:51:38,280 Speaker 1: title of app status, but the so highlights Lady Gaga 2057 01:51:38,360 --> 01:51:40,160 Speaker 1: is spectomenal and house of Gucci. But we don't like 2058 01:51:40,200 --> 01:51:43,360 Speaker 1: the movie. Cultural Awards are canceled and we wish Wendy 2059 01:51:43,400 --> 01:51:49,400 Speaker 1: Williams the best. I'm really sad that the awards are 2060 01:51:49,479 --> 01:51:52,160 Speaker 1: are canceled, but we had to do. It would have 2061 01:51:52,200 --> 01:51:54,280 Speaker 1: been import taste to have kept them going given the 2062 01:51:54,280 --> 01:51:57,360 Speaker 1: state of Wendy Williams. Right, the last cultures Cultural Awards, 2063 01:51:57,400 --> 01:52:01,639 Speaker 1: as an idea were was a beautiful moment in time 2064 01:52:01,680 --> 01:52:05,160 Speaker 1: that was a byproduct of our insanity during the filming 2065 01:52:05,200 --> 01:52:07,920 Speaker 1: of the movie Fire Island, and it will stand the 2066 01:52:07,960 --> 01:52:12,880 Speaker 1: test of time. But if you read the hundred period 2067 01:52:13,400 --> 01:52:18,439 Speaker 1: to award the nominees now only months later makes no sense. 2068 01:52:18,520 --> 01:52:21,599 Speaker 1: To it no longer makes sense, and we wish might 2069 01:52:21,680 --> 01:52:29,479 Speaker 1: be the best Hi you shot at Ull
