Speaker 1: steps to seven rings. But I'm going to say really good.
Speaker 1: I'm going all the way back to no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm going back to the shangri Laws. They they referenced
Speaker 1: rings in.
Speaker 2: Can You Smell? Yes?
Speaker 1: We see I and they say, hey, is that Jimmy's
Speaker 1: rings she's wearing?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Ask Betty the way spoken word wait, talk about drama.
Speaker 1: No song delivered drama.
Speaker 2: Like leader of the Pack by the Shangrila.
Speaker 1: Leader of the Pack. You know what I finally watched yesterday?
Speaker 1: I finally watched the CHROMATICA Ball.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, what did you think we're recording this
Speaker 2: in June? By the way, early June.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was an early June. I finally watched CHROMATICA
Speaker 1: Ball on Max. I thought it was you know what
Speaker 1: it did? It really reminded me of being there. You know,
Speaker 1: I don't know if if in and of itself, it
Speaker 1: was like, this is the concert experience that I'm used
Speaker 1: to now that we've got eras and renaissance like that
Speaker 1: you can watch at any given time, but it definitely
Speaker 1: was like, Wow, this was a really fun concert that
Speaker 1: I loved being.
Speaker 2: At That's great. Go Lady Go, Lady Gaga go. Would
Speaker 2: love to see her at the Olympics, just in the
Speaker 2: oh my god, watching artistic swimming.
Speaker 1: I would love to see her judge, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, Like if we added Lady Gaga as a
Speaker 1: judge to every Olympic category and basically like they all
Speaker 1: did their scores on like technique and presentation, and then
Speaker 1: she judged on just art pop on art pop like
Speaker 1: where it is at a one through ten, like even
Speaker 1: the races, you know what I mean, Like someone could
Speaker 1: clearly win. But did they serve art pop?
Speaker 2: Right? Did they serve kindness punk?
Speaker 1: One of the most important things you could do is
Speaker 1: remember to be a kindness punk each and every day
Speaker 1: of your life.
Speaker 2: That's so important. I just want to say I had
Speaker 2: a sport adjacent moment yesterday.
Speaker 1: Gone.
Speaker 2: Well, first of all, Vancouver, Yeah, the famous Olympic town.
Speaker 2: They had their Winter Olympics. So apparently there's a group
Speaker 2: called WESA here and it's the softball league, Yes, and
Speaker 2: each team puts forward a person I'm usually a gay
Speaker 2: man to perform in drag and the rest of the
Speaker 2: softball team is backup dancers, and I thought it was
Speaker 2: very athletic what they were doing and artistic, but it
Speaker 2: felt like a little preview for the Olympics. For me,
Speaker 2: I thought, this is giving me Olympics the way that
Speaker 2: they are doing maybe this time by Liza Minelli. This
Speaker 2: is reminding me of the Olympics in some way.
Speaker 1: It's very art pop. So honestly, god Go should have
Speaker 1: been there to score that because she had these athletes
Speaker 1: who were giving art pop in the form of drag
Speaker 1: and can I say thank God they sent the gay
Speaker 1: men to be in Dragon, not one of the straight
Speaker 1: members of the softball team, because you never this is
Speaker 1: a famous expression, you never sent a straight man to
Speaker 1: do a gay man's job.
Speaker 2: And I would say that's a real culture, but we haven't.
Speaker 2: Now today we're going to get into the five rings.
Speaker 2: Right now, we're still in two guys segment.
Speaker 1: This is the two guys section of the episode, and
Speaker 1: then we get into five Rings. But this is one
Speaker 1: of the most exciting episodes because it's all about the
Speaker 1: Olympic Village.
Speaker 2: Which is kind of abstract, right. We always think about
Speaker 2: the Olympic Village in a very like fantastical way, but
Speaker 2: then the reality of. It is so much more interesting
Speaker 2: than you could possibly ever realize.
Speaker 1: Can I tell you what I picture in my mind's
Speaker 1: eye when I think of the Olympic village and it
Speaker 1: can't be this a baker, you're thinking of a village
Speaker 1: in terms of like a beauty and the beast to ask.
Speaker 2: I'm thinking of beautying the beast provincial town.
Speaker 1: And what I'm thinking of is I'm thinking of it
Speaker 1: looks like the VIP area at any given like music festival, Like, oh,
Speaker 1: there's a little hot dogs there, Like here's where you
Speaker 1: can get your flawn. Here's where you can get this
Speaker 1: Like it's.
Speaker 2: Like it's always the flawn at music festivals.
Speaker 1: Well, at the VIP section. It's like when you go
Speaker 1: to Coachella and you got your wristband, you go into
Speaker 1: the little fantasy station. I'm certain there is. Can I say,
Speaker 1: I'm certainly not eating flawn at the music festival.
Speaker 2: But I don't know any that anybody is.
Speaker 1: I bet you could get it there at Coachella. We'll
Speaker 1: check in next year.
Speaker 2: I'm sure you can get it, but no one's buying
Speaker 2: it anyway.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm that's in my mind's eye. I'm seeing like
Speaker 1: a very corporate like like something that feels very.
Speaker 2: Active, little brand activations all around.
Speaker 1: Correct, that's what I'm seeing on mind' eye, But really
Speaker 1: it's I guess it basically just can't really be that.
Speaker 1: You have to strip it way back everything that we
Speaker 1: have in our mind's eye. Maybe you're closer because it
Speaker 1: is just where they live. I'm sure they have to
Speaker 1: have like little spots that can go little town. It's
Speaker 1: a quiet village, their whole life away.
Speaker 2: But well, on that note, we're gonna really we're actually
Speaker 2: going to find out what is in the village when
Speaker 2: we come back from this break.
Speaker 1: We're back.
Speaker 2: We're now in five Rings territory.
Speaker 1: Are we sure?
Speaker 2: Are? Let's talk about the Olympic Village. Let's I kind
Speaker 2: of want to live in the fantasy more before we
Speaker 2: actually break down, Like, look at some facts and figures
Speaker 2: about the Olympic Village. I I really want it to be.
Speaker 2: I want there to be a playground, but I want
Speaker 2: like I want to I know what we're both.
Speaker 1: Thinking, what do you what do you think I'm thinking?
Speaker 2: I think we are both thinking and wishing that there
Speaker 2: was a roller coaster ride.
Speaker 1: And the all I'm saying is at least some theme
Speaker 1: park attractions, you know what I mean, like at least
Speaker 1: get the ferris wheel hooked up, at least turn on,
Speaker 1: you know. But also some of these carnival rides that
Speaker 1: they put up for like little dinky things are the
Speaker 1: ones that make you sick. And I don't want the
Speaker 1: athletes all sick.
Speaker 2: I don't want a dinky ride. I want Imagineeer level,
Speaker 2: Universal Studios caliber, Epic Universe caliber, Epic Universe caliber engineering.
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I mean I want that all
Speaker 1: the time. But you know, what would the theme be?
Speaker 1: What would it be like if you're in the Olympic,
Speaker 1: if you're in the Olympic village. Yes, I I feel like,
Speaker 1: what's the theme of the ride? Like, what's the universal
Speaker 1: thing that's speaking to everyone?
Speaker 2: Champion? Okay, yeah, like victory? The theme is victory?
Speaker 1: Yeah. So you start the ride, you get in and
Speaker 1: it's like maybe it's like you're starting a race and
Speaker 1: then something goes off the off the rails, like and
Speaker 1: then is it like is it like a ride through Paris?
Speaker 2: Like oh no, yes, I love that. There has to
Speaker 2: be an Olympics ride.
Speaker 1: Why, I mean, I guess it's up to the NBC
Speaker 1: Universal They have a whole theme park train, and then
Speaker 1: they could be doing a lot with Olympics themed ride.
Speaker 1: Because can I say something? And I love to Jimmy Fallon,
Speaker 1: but Jimmy Fallon has a whole ass ride in Universal Studios, Florida,
Speaker 1: and I'm going to say Thempics are a way bigger
Speaker 1: deal than Jimmy just because they've been around a lot longer.
Speaker 1: Why don't they deserve a ride in this famously film
Speaker 1: and television themed theme park. I mean, the Olympics is television.
Speaker 1: I'm only making points here.
Speaker 2: I don't like what you're doing. I don't want this
Speaker 2: to get back to Jimmy that you say the Olympics
Speaker 2: are bigger than him.
Speaker 1: It's nothing against them.
Speaker 2: I don't want you to run a foul of Big
Speaker 2: Jim Tonight show Big Jim.
Speaker 1: Here's what I'll say, just to broaden it. The Olympics
Speaker 1: are a bigger franchise than the Men in Black franchise,
Speaker 1: and yet they have a ride.
Speaker 2: Certainly bigger than the Mummy, certainly bigger than the Mummy.
Speaker 2: Let's actually start getting into facts about the Olympic village. Shallly, sure, Matt,
Speaker 2: the Olympic Village will be the home of more than
Speaker 2: fourteen thousand athletes and entourage members participating in the Olympic Games. Later,
Speaker 2: for the Paralympic Games, another nine thousand athletes and entourage
Speaker 2: members move in. The village will be mostly situated in
Speaker 2: the north of Paris, on the banks of the River Senn,
Speaker 2: So we're talking right banked the of which is the
Speaker 2: northern bank of Paris.
Speaker 1: Thank god you're here again. Bowen Yang's first language being
Speaker 1: French is so huge for this podcast. It's a major hook.
Speaker 1: It really sets us apart from other podcasts that are
Speaker 1: going to be covering the Olympics because a lot of
Speaker 1: people would pronounce that like drawa. Well, I'm not even
Speaker 1: gonna try. Yeah, exactly the pedestrian pronunciation, but not here,
Speaker 1: not with bowen Yang speaking of pedestrians. There's going to
Speaker 1: be fourteen thousand people living in this village, Okay, So
Speaker 1: can I say something number before when I cast out
Speaker 1: on the fact that we were going to have enough
Speaker 1: budget to create like a theme park level attraction in
Speaker 1: this village. Now fourteen thousand people. It's Paris, it's NBC Universal, baby,
Speaker 1: we have the money. What we actually need a big
Speaker 1: theme park attraction in the village just for foot traffic. Oh,
Speaker 1: we need to take some people off the streets, get
Speaker 1: them in the coaster. Yeah, you have.
Speaker 2: You are giving urban planning.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm giving been planning every second of my life.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking how do we make this better? Every second
Speaker 1: of my life. I'm pointing up to whatever city I'm
Speaker 1: in and I'm saying, now, how do we change this
Speaker 1: for the better? Structurally? Just I'm always thinking about how
Speaker 1: we move people.
Speaker 2: Yes, you always think about this. Talk about the thing
Speaker 2: about Paris, the architectural trademark of Paris, which is low
Speaker 2: rise housing, low rise buildings in general, nothing above I think,
Speaker 2: I want to say twelve stories, but usually it's like
Speaker 2: nothing about eight stories. That's why the Eiffel Tower sticks out.
Speaker 1: So I'm really happy that you brought this up because
Speaker 1: I've been waiting to talk about this. Okay, So you
Speaker 1: know how they say that Paris is the city of
Speaker 1: love and light exactly, so basically, and one of the
Speaker 1: narratives about the Olympic Village is that people be right,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like we talked in the
Speaker 1: last episode about how there's tons of condoms out et cetera.
Speaker 1: So this actually does go all the way back to
Speaker 1: foot traffic. Because we don't have the vertical real estate,
Speaker 1: we can't have a lot of people really inside like stacked.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is already a big, full, hot biomass.
Speaker 2: So let's talk about the bedrooms. Because the bedrooms might.
Speaker 1: Oh, let's talk about it.
Speaker 2: Well, it's there. I think the bedrooms you'll have some
Speaker 2: thoughts on because I don't think they are encouraging activity
Speaker 2: sexual activity.
Speaker 1: Well we'll talk about that, because I think that sometimes
Speaker 1: horniness can outweigh practicality. But let's hear. Let's tell your
Speaker 1: facts and figures.
Speaker 2: Matt, I want to do a price is right this
Speaker 2: sort of thing? You how many condoms do you think
Speaker 2: are handed out in the Olympic village? Will be handed
Speaker 2: out in the Olympic village because we have an answer
Speaker 2: to this because someone at NBC did help us with research.
Speaker 2: But how many condoms do you think are handed out
Speaker 2: in the Olympic village this year?
Speaker 1: Fourteen thousand athletes, You have to imagine at.
Speaker 3: Least at least ten to eleven thousand of them are
Speaker 3: horny people. You have to imagine that you know they're
Speaker 3: not having sex just once. They're probably having sex. Like
Speaker 3: I'm going to say, on the average two times, so
Speaker 3: let's go in the lower end ten times two twenty
Speaker 3: k I'm gonna say they hand out just because of
Speaker 3: you know, the way that you know, things get disseminated
Speaker 3: around and you know this often so much merch and
Speaker 3: more than you ever think you're gonna need.
Speaker 1: So add five thousand. I'm gonna say, twenty five thousand condoms.
Speaker 1: Geta hand it out.
Speaker 2: Hold on to your hat. We're going to reveal the number.
Speaker 1: Later later, later, Oh my god, no, my girl was
Speaker 1: gonna edge me on the pod.
Speaker 2: Girl, let's talk about the rooms.
Speaker 1: Okay, that was really crazy we just did. Now I'm chomping.
Speaker 2: It's a bit, but we're locking in at twenty five
Speaker 2: thousand condoms.
Speaker 1: I would say, because I think more than that is
Speaker 1: kind of crazy.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 2: Another fact about the Olympic village. Okay, seventy two hundred
Speaker 2: rooms from forty thousand athletes. Case so in three thousand
Speaker 2: apartments in eighty two residential buildings. So eighty two residential buildings.
Speaker 2: What's the math on that? Like that is like that's
Speaker 2: like forty rooms per build, forty units per building, and
Speaker 2: then two or three people per room.
Speaker 1: Athletes will share a bedroom with one other athlete and
Speaker 1: share a bathroom with three others, so it is giving
Speaker 1: full on college. You know, this actually is another place
Speaker 1: in the road where Bowen Yang and I diverged because
Speaker 1: you never had a roommate.
Speaker 2: I did have a roommate, I had family. You didn't
Speaker 2: have like a college dorm room. I never had anyone
Speaker 2: in the same room. I never lived in the dorms exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've never shared a room with another Yeah, feen
Speaker 1: year old? Was that with a literal stranger that you have?
Speaker 1: Isn't that whole concept crazy?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna say for the Olympics, it's fine, like
Speaker 2: you got a bunk with someone for like a month
Speaker 2: or so, that summer camp vibes like that I can
Speaker 2: wrap my head around. But for college, they pair you
Speaker 2: with someone you don't know from Adam and you're supposed
Speaker 2: to sleep in the same room as them for a year.
Speaker 1: And first of all, college is way harder than the Olympics.
Speaker 1: I okay, let's just say that, like, college is way
Speaker 1: harder than the Olympics. I'm talking about a place where
Speaker 1: you really need a lot of space, and they don't
Speaker 1: give you any It's college. So there you are in
Speaker 1: college or with someone else, you have to literally hear
Speaker 1: them sleep, eat, speak, all these things. And meanwhile, in
Speaker 1: the Olympics, like you know, you're in and out. But
Speaker 1: in college you have to be with that person for
Speaker 1: a whole year. And if you didn't like that person,
Speaker 1: god speed. I would say I sort of liked my roommate.
Speaker 1: I did. I was also in a sweet mate situation.
Speaker 1: We all shared a bathroom. It's precarious. It's precarious because
Speaker 1: what if that person is a slob, It could really
Speaker 1: throw you.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, your affect your studies.
Speaker 1: Also, I guess the amount of communication about sex because also,
Speaker 1: but the thing is, this is what I was gonna
Speaker 1: tell you, Like sharing a room with someone that's not
Speaker 1: gonna like essentially include sexual activities. It's not. I think
Speaker 1: they just turn the other way. They go I get it.
Speaker 2: Wow. Interesting. I don't have any roommate stories, but I
Speaker 2: do have a friend's anecdote. Okay, a good friend of
Speaker 2: ours his college roommate smelled so bad and did not
Speaker 2: do did not make a good just did not have
Speaker 2: good hygiene overall with his laundry and whatever. That this person,
Speaker 2: our friend one night, while this person was sleeping, sprayed
Speaker 2: fabreeze over his body. That's how bad.
Speaker 1: That is violating. I don't doubt anything.
Speaker 2: I don't find it humorous. I find it shocking. I'm
Speaker 2: not laughing. Do you hear ha.
Speaker 1: HAA someone was fabreezed in their sleep? Okay, that is
Speaker 1: using a drug on someone while they sleep. That's you
Speaker 1: that story here, so we could all laugh. Someone being drugged.
Speaker 2: Drugged? No one was drugged, kidding, no one was. The
Speaker 2: fumes were giving.
Speaker 1: Well damn, I mean, listen, here's the thing. Normalize a
Speaker 1: lot of these athletes are gay. Okay, let's just say that,
Speaker 1: first and foremost, a lot of these athletes are gay,
Speaker 1: and I am so happy for them.
Speaker 2: Well, let's just apply the ten percent figure at least, well,
Speaker 2: it's seven percent, okay, but I can't do that math
Speaker 2: right now, so I'm say I'm gonna round that up
Speaker 2: to ten. Let's say fourteen hundred of these people for
Speaker 2: the Olympics, yeah, are gay, and then nine hundred for
Speaker 2: the Paralympics are gay.
Speaker 1: Here's what I'm really curious about. What is what are
Speaker 1: the apps looking like? The gay apps looking like?
Speaker 3: In the village.
Speaker 1: I bet they pop off.
Speaker 2: I remember in twenty twelve in London there was a
Speaker 2: story not widely reported, but there was your story. Hold on,
Speaker 2: there was a story that that grinder in the Olympic
Speaker 2: Village crashed. The entire time.
Speaker 1: They were looking and looking and looking. By the way
Speaker 1: media report on the fact that grinder crashed in the
Speaker 1: Olympic village, that's a big story. Okay, I'm looking at
Speaker 1: the amenities of the Olympic Village where we talk about this.
Speaker 2: Yes, let's talk about amenities.
Speaker 1: Okay. There's a twenty four hour fitness center containing more
Speaker 1: than three hundred and fifty machines and two saunas. That
Speaker 1: feels like probably enough. That's a lot of space.
Speaker 2: Listen, if the bed situation, if the roommate situation ain't
Speaker 2: working out for you to bring someone home, you go
Speaker 2: to the sauna.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. There's a village club which will be the
Speaker 1: place to relax, socialize and watch coverage of the game.
Speaker 1: So this is what I'm talking about. This is like
Speaker 1: the central situation. This is the VIP situation. Like I guarantee,
Speaker 1: like they make it really nice. In the words of
Speaker 1: Derinda NBC Universal Icon on the in the Olympic Village,
Speaker 1: so clearly we have we have. There's a center. Speaking
Speaker 1: of centers, there is a multi faith center where you
Speaker 1: can worship or pray for victory or body worship your lover. Honestly,
Speaker 1: like listen, you said it not Mesis. There's a medical clinic,
Speaker 1: thank god. I mean these people are they need to
Speaker 1: be maintained. There is see, this is what I'm talking
Speaker 1: about here, the Village Plaza, which offers a variety of
Speaker 1: services for village residents, including a hair salon, bank, coffee bar,
Speaker 1: grocery store, merch store, and post office because the mail
Speaker 1: doesn't stop. This is what I'm talking about, Like this
Speaker 1: is like, this makes it, This makes it, Yeah, a
Speaker 1: place where you could live full time. It's a village.
Speaker 1: It takes a village. More than two hundred bikes will
Speaker 1: be available for athletes to help them get around the village.
Speaker 1: Big Biking place Europe, you know this. Yes, electric shuttles
Speaker 1: also will transport village residents around. And there is a
Speaker 1: bakery in the Olympic Village that will hold workshops teaching
Speaker 1: athletes how to make the perfect biget. So it's like
Speaker 1: site specific.
Speaker 2: And it is as I was saying, I wanted a baker.
Speaker 2: It is giving me beauty and the beast. I don't
Speaker 2: know how many of these people are going to be
Speaker 2: eating baguettes, are going to be digesting simple carbs, are
Speaker 2: going to be you know, taking that much sugar in
Speaker 2: unless it's helpful for their event, but that get instead.
Speaker 2: That's going to be a hard sell for these professional athletes.
Speaker 1: No, but think about this. Think about like, if your
Speaker 1: event is like up top, if your event is first,
Speaker 1: like that would be so gaggy because like if you
Speaker 1: get done in the first of two or three days, like.
Speaker 4: Then you can literally well just sit in the village
Speaker 4: community center, eat bread, learn how to make bread, get
Speaker 4: on the grinder.
Speaker 2: Really go off, go to the hair salon, go to
Speaker 2: the hair fun get your hair done.
Speaker 1: Get your hair did, get your hair did. Oh you
Speaker 1: would that's where you would see me. And honestly, like,
Speaker 1: it would suck if your event was last, because you're
Speaker 1: sitting around like and you can't enjoy any of it,
Speaker 1: and then you have to leave at the end because
Speaker 1: the paralympians have to come in.
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. The best you can do is
Speaker 2: go to the coffee bar and yes, write your screenplay.
Speaker 2: Some of the athletes are writers exactly. Well, many athletes
Speaker 2: will pursue.
Speaker 1: Career in the arts after this is over. Because remember
Speaker 1: if you if you are an Olympian, it does mean
Speaker 1: you probably have an on camera future.
Speaker 4: It's true.
Speaker 1: There's no kitchens in the apartments. Individual rooms contain no
Speaker 1: TVs or video game consoles. I don't know about all.
Speaker 1: This sounding like a jail situation to me. I don't
Speaker 1: like jam situation. Yeah, this feels like no televisions. But
Speaker 1: what do you think it has to just be a
Speaker 1: cost thing? I mean, because that would be a big expense.
Speaker 1: You know you got if you want to go watch TV,
Speaker 1: I guess go watching the community center with your bag
Speaker 1: at friends.
Speaker 2: Now, maybe it's them wanting to reduce screen time. I
Speaker 2: don't know. But bring your iPad is what we're saying.
Speaker 2: If you're an Olympian, bring the iPad, Get the VPN.
Speaker 2: Make sure you can watch your American shows in France,
Speaker 2: because you know you can't get certain channels.
Speaker 1: Text Bang on instructions on how to set up the VPN.
Speaker 1: He can help you.
Speaker 2: I'll let you know. Okay, this is important. This is
Speaker 2: what I think about a lot and not just because
Speaker 2: of like the you know, the sexy stuff. It's this
Speaker 2: is important. Beds. Yeah, bases are made of reinforced recycled cardboard. Okay,
Speaker 2: we love sustainable. Mattresses are made from recycled fishing nets.
Speaker 2: I love that as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's really good.
Speaker 2: Healthy z just meet it. Sustainability targets. Of course, beds
Speaker 2: are sturdy enough to support five hundred and fifty one
Speaker 2: pounds in weight. Okay, this is enough for two tall swimmers. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, to spoon, you.
Speaker 1: Could be just over two hundred and fifty pounds. Both
Speaker 1: of these and this, Oh my god, I'm thinking about
Speaker 1: these shot put these gay shot putters, like putting down
Speaker 1: the shot put picking up the.
Speaker 2: Ooh, oh my god, wait what are you what are
Speaker 2: you doing?
Speaker 1: I M sorry, my jaw just dropped because as you're talking,
Speaker 1: I looked over to the next number and I'm seeing
Speaker 1: how many condoms it is.
Speaker 2: Oh you looked at the next number.
Speaker 1: No, it was just right in front of me. Take
Speaker 1: it away on this one. This number is going to
Speaker 1: shock you.
Speaker 2: We're going to reveal the number of condoms that are
Speaker 2: being handed out. Barberad NBC Sports, thank you for doing
Speaker 2: the research. Yeah, the Olympic Village is set to stock
Speaker 2: what did you say? What did you guess?
Speaker 1: Earlier matt I said they would give out twenty five.
Speaker 2: Three hundred thousand condoms will be stocked at the Olympic Village.
Speaker 2: I think that's wonderful. I think, whoa, we should practice
Speaker 2: safe sex. We can't have anyone catching diseases before they
Speaker 2: do their events.
Speaker 1: And you know that's how somebody I hold I still
Speaker 1: think that's how some of these international rivals of ours
Speaker 1: are going to try to kneecap us is in the bedroom.
Speaker 1: They try to kneecap us in the bedroom. Bo, that's
Speaker 1: what they do.
Speaker 2: I have the knee caps before ooh kinky.
Speaker 1: The Olympics have been in the condom game since the
Speaker 1: nineteen eighty eight Soul Games when they were handed out
Speaker 1: to raise awareness of HIV AIDS. Well, I'm so happy
Speaker 1: that everyone is feeling healthy and thriving in the bedroom again.
Speaker 1: Like if my event was over early, you would see
Speaker 1: me eaten bagattes and get getting off the road to
Speaker 1: make way for some foot traffic. Let's just say that,
Speaker 1: filling myself up in bread and then you know, get
Speaker 1: to get into it.
Speaker 2: Bread, for it is a choice.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of words floating around here, like bread.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of words floating around here, like you know,
Speaker 1: I feel.
Speaker 2: I think this is worth mentioning forty thousand meals daily
Speaker 2: during the games in the main dining hall with more
Speaker 2: than thirty two hundred seats. So that is a big
Speaker 2: dining hall. That's giving me you know, you can say
Speaker 2: it Harry Potter vibes. Now I was gonna say, you
Speaker 2: can say. It will feature food from around the world,
Speaker 2: with menu rotating every eight days and catering to all
Speaker 2: dietary and nutritional needs. Alcohol is not provided on the premises.
Speaker 2: About one third of the five hundred recipes made will
Speaker 2: be vegetarian, and there will be a salad bar with
Speaker 2: more than thirty options, a mikrel, a cheese section, a bakery,
Speaker 2: a hot food buffet, a dessert bar, and a wide
Speaker 2: range of fruits. Oh god, this is getting resort.
Speaker 1: It's truly sounding good. And I wonder like if they
Speaker 1: say entourage members are allowed in, Like you probably have
Speaker 1: to be online some sort of very exclusive list to
Speaker 1: even get in here.
Speaker 2: But look, simone, if you have room on the list.
Speaker 2: Matt and I would love to come.
Speaker 1: Wait as a real thing. Because I have a couple
Speaker 1: questions about the perks of doing this podcast. If we
Speaker 1: wanted to, could we get into the Olympic Village just
Speaker 1: to like walk around, Like, could we figure that out?
Speaker 1: This lovely woman Barbara, I mean, can we reach out
Speaker 1: to her. Let's see what she can do. I know
Speaker 1: she's on the ground doing some research. Can she find
Speaker 1: out she can get us on some lists and so
Speaker 1: we can hang with Shirkerri and you know, let's see
Speaker 1: what happens. Oh, and I also wonder we'll doing this podcast.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna bring up a universe in again. Can
Speaker 1: we get tickets to that when it opens? Like, because
Speaker 1: we do this podcast, we have NBC universal ties. I'm
Speaker 1: really interested in that. Now we talked about theme park attractions.
Speaker 1: I can't get off of it.
Speaker 2: That's the only note we have as professional urban planners
Speaker 2: and experiential designers for the Olympic Villages, there should be
Speaker 2: one impeccable engineered roller coaster.
Speaker 1: Well really, what you need to have is you need
Speaker 1: one eat ticket, which is like a big, massive indoor
Speaker 1: ride that can hold a lot of people. You need
Speaker 1: a couple of flat rides, which are you, you know,
Speaker 1: for the for the kids and for the girls. Yep.
Speaker 1: And then you need a big show. You need one
Speaker 1: big show.
Speaker 2: Well, the big show is the games, like a live show,
Speaker 2: like Olympics, the musical, Oh interesting, go off.
Speaker 1: They should reach out to Sutton Foster. She says yes
Speaker 1: to everything.
Speaker 2: Anyway, Let's take a break and then when we come back,
Speaker 2: we will give out our medals for our top three stories.
Speaker 1: Yes, we're back.
Speaker 2: Now, let's do bronze, silver and gold. This is a
Speaker 2: tough We've got a lot of facts and figures, but
Speaker 2: we got to pick three.
Speaker 1: I think you know what. For me, the bronze metal
Speaker 1: has to go to the variety of services in the
Speaker 1: village plaza. I can't get over like how chic it
Speaker 1: sounds to be able to go to the hair salon
Speaker 1: the bank of the coffee bar, at the grocery store.
Speaker 1: Like I could spend a whole afternoon in the village
Speaker 1: running EAGs in hand, bags in hand with things, baguettes
Speaker 1: in hand, like chomping down and you could just have
Speaker 1: a shopping day.
Speaker 2: Here's what I'm doing. I'm hooking two fingers over my shoulder.
Speaker 2: Pretend there's hangars of dry cleaning behind me. That is
Speaker 2: the most running Errand's look I could possibly want.
Speaker 1: Yes, and just basically so again Pittri, I have the
Speaker 1: bag behind me and I have two fingers up like
Speaker 1: this because I'm trying to wave down a car because
Speaker 1: I can't. I don't want to carry this too much
Speaker 1: more ready, Oh hi, hi and the sea getting in Techsi,
Speaker 1: my French TSI what wins the silver medal?
Speaker 2: Bo silver for me is gonna be? I really think
Speaker 2: they nailed it on the beds, not just for you know,
Speaker 2: like the weight capacity. I think how sustainable they are. Yes,
Speaker 2: five hundred and fifty one pounds is specific. You know
Speaker 2: they want it. They were like five fifty sounds to faith.
Speaker 2: Let's actually give them a random ass number, five fifty one,
Speaker 2: and I believe it to be true. Like they they
Speaker 2: did a weight test, they did a stress test on
Speaker 2: these mattresses in these bedframes, and I'm gagged. I love that.
Speaker 2: So that's my silver.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the silver, And I think so can I
Speaker 1: just give an honorable palladium to pladium metal goes to
Speaker 1: the three hundred thousand condoms because I'm conflicted about it,
Speaker 1: because I do think that their commitment to safe sex
Speaker 1: is admirable, but the gold medal, I would have to say, bo,
Speaker 1: I think that one of the most interesting exciting things
Speaker 1: is the site specific like element here they put a
Speaker 1: bakery in and they can teach athletes how to make
Speaker 1: their own.
Speaker 2: You love the bag bag gets.
Speaker 1: I just think that's really cute, and I think ultimately
Speaker 1: what's great about this is the bakery. When they're teaching
Speaker 1: the workshops, that's how you get people off the road,
Speaker 1: and that's how you help foot traffic, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, Like, I'm still interested in how we help
Speaker 1: this city.
Speaker 2: Run because you know Parisians, the locals are like they're excited,
Speaker 2: but you know some of them have to be in
Speaker 2: the cafes in the Patisseri saying, oh la la, the
Speaker 2: Olympics are really gonna mess up our lifestyle. Oh laala?
Speaker 1: Is that what they are? Like? Like, if I wanted
Speaker 1: to Paris, I was like, oh la la, they'd be
Speaker 1: like he's one.
Speaker 2: Of us, la la Click.
Speaker 1: I don't know what I just said, so that that
Speaker 1: would be the note We end our episode on.
