0:00:25.640 --> 0:00:28.920
<v Speaker 1>into the episode, we have to talk about Ryan Murphy

0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:32.600
<v Speaker 1>getting the Carol Burnett on her UM at the Golden Clothes.

0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:34.760
<v Speaker 1>It was great and UM, I will say it was

0:00:34.760 --> 0:00:37.400
<v Speaker 1>particularly great because there were a couple of shots of Tardi.

0:00:38.320 --> 0:00:41.879
<v Speaker 1>We had a really nice when we're tapping together. It

0:00:41.920 --> 0:00:44.600
<v Speaker 1>was it was sweet. Jenna. I was happy that you

0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 1>and I got our own little, you know, two seconds

0:00:47.760 --> 0:00:50.720
<v Speaker 1>little clip together. We were there, We were there, we

0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:54.639
<v Speaker 1>were there in spirit. And then Ryan gave a beautiful

0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:59.160
<v Speaker 1>speech and highlighted UM some of the incredible talent that

0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:01.920
<v Speaker 1>he has worked with UM and it was just it

0:01:01.960 --> 0:01:03.640
<v Speaker 1>was really really nice. I was happy to see him

0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 1>get that award. I talked to him over the holiday

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:09.160
<v Speaker 1>break and he was like, I think I'm a little

0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:11.320
<v Speaker 1>young to be getting it, but I was like, just

0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.280
<v Speaker 1>take it, Ryan, Yes, and He's like, yeah, I'm gonna

0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:16.920
<v Speaker 1>take He is really young to get it. But he's

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 1>done such a body of a massive body of working

0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:21.560
<v Speaker 1>such a short amount of time that like, I don't

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:24.240
<v Speaker 1>think any use questioning it. And he's changed, you know,

0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:27.000
<v Speaker 1>the landscape of television in a lot of ways and

0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:30.520
<v Speaker 1>made a lot of people massive stars. Yes, and made

0:01:30.520 --> 0:01:35.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of studios very very happy. Um well, congrats

0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:39.320
<v Speaker 1>to Ryan and for Glee and Ryan, it's okay that

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:41.480
<v Speaker 1>you didn't talk about me for five minutes straight like

0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:47.760
<v Speaker 1>I requested, I forgive you. Yeah, Um well, congrats. Ran

0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 1>back to the best episode there ever was of Glee.

0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Take it away, Jenna, Okay, I love this episode. I

0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:58.200
<v Speaker 1>have a lot of nostalgia for doing shooting this episode

0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:02.200
<v Speaker 1>but then rewatching the stops. O gosh, what a good episode.

0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:06.080
<v Speaker 1>This was so solid and um so we had the

0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:09.480
<v Speaker 1>director of this episode, Paris Barclay, on last episode. If

0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:10.880
<v Speaker 1>you haven't listened to it, go listen to it because

0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:14.880
<v Speaker 1>it's wonderful. And we talked about how we're coming off

0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:20.239
<v Speaker 1>sort of the um pure chaos that was previous few

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:23.320
<v Speaker 1>episodes and this sort of gets us back down to

0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:29.000
<v Speaker 1>brass tacks of um Glee and the serious storylines and

0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 1>um monumental moments for a lot of these characters, yes, Um.

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:37.920
<v Speaker 1>And then we are also really in the thick of

0:02:38.000 --> 0:02:40.919
<v Speaker 1>the feeling of like this being the beginning of the phenomenon.

0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:44.280
<v Speaker 1>In the middle of this episode, we fly to New

0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:52.000
<v Speaker 1>York to um dance for advertisers, to um show them

0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:54.720
<v Speaker 1>that Glee is on Fox, to buy ad space and

0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:59.359
<v Speaker 1>commercial space and look at our hit. We perform Somebody

0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>to Love Love five, which was the whole thing, um,

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.720
<v Speaker 1>which you just you don't perform for these acat show.

0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:11.920
<v Speaker 1>This was special. And then in Glean News the the

0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:17.400
<v Speaker 1>music Volume one was had come out the previous week,

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:20.760
<v Speaker 1>So this episode aired on November eleven, thousand nine, and

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:27.160
<v Speaker 1>the soundtrack came out November, remember November two, okay, And

0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 1>then he went to number one on the charts in Ireland,

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:33.680
<v Speaker 1>the UK, peaked at number three in Australia and number

0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:36.960
<v Speaker 1>four in Canada and the United States, and Volume one

0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:41.560
<v Speaker 1>has been certified platinum in all of those countries. Crazy,

0:03:41.640 --> 0:03:47.240
<v Speaker 1>absolutely crazy, And this was so the Wheels episode because

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:50.080
<v Speaker 1>of the subject matter we also and because it was

0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:53.880
<v Speaker 1>more of a serious episode. I think the network it

0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:57.520
<v Speaker 1>was two things because it spoke to um a lot

0:03:57.560 --> 0:04:03.200
<v Speaker 1>of different communities, like um down syndrome and people wheelchairs.

0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:07.720
<v Speaker 1>They wanted to show this episode off in a way

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:09.880
<v Speaker 1>UM and show how it was going to impact people.

0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 1>And then also it was sort of like an Awards season,

0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:16.840
<v Speaker 1>they don't forget about us next year. And we had

0:04:16.880 --> 0:04:19.560
<v Speaker 1>screenings that there's a big there's a big movie theater

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:21.720
<v Speaker 1>chain r I p Arc Light here in l A.

0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:24.039
<v Speaker 1>It was so good and I remember we had a

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:27.280
<v Speaker 1>gigantic screening there just for this episode. It was very

0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 1>and Chris were there, went for that. It was very Yeah,

0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:34.000
<v Speaker 1>it was a lot. There was a lot going on

0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:38.200
<v Speaker 1>outside of the Glue bubble as well as inside UM.

0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:41.760
<v Speaker 1>But it was exciting. Shall we get into this incredible

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:46.799
<v Speaker 1>episode featuring us. Yes, so most importantly in this episode,

0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.280
<v Speaker 1>Already needs to get two sectionals and we learned that

0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:52.720
<v Speaker 1>he needs a bus in order for Already to ride

0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:55.159
<v Speaker 1>with us. Yes, we need a bus with an elevator

0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:58.040
<v Speaker 1>with a lift to get the wheelchair in and that

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:02.400
<v Speaker 1>is expensive of in that for for the Glee club.

0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:07.400
<v Speaker 1>So Mr Shooe comes up with the idea that because

0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:14.279
<v Speaker 1>these kids are all very unempathetic, is that that a word? Unempathetic? Apathetic? Jenna,

0:05:14.560 --> 0:05:19.440
<v Speaker 1>thank you Okay, so they're apathetic education show. Thank you.

0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:25.880
<v Speaker 1>They were apathetic um too already being in a wheelchair. Um,

0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:29.040
<v Speaker 1>they're like whatever, already can just get his own ride. Uh.

0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:31.039
<v Speaker 1>He decides that everybody is going to have to spend

0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:35.360
<v Speaker 1>some time in a wheelchair. That's right, And we're gonna

0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:37.800
<v Speaker 1>have a bake sale, yes, to raise funds to get

0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:42.039
<v Speaker 1>the bus that we need to get all of us together.

0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:47.960
<v Speaker 1>Two sectionals. So let's talk about the wheelchairs for a second,

0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:52.880
<v Speaker 1>because we started the rehearsals for Proud Mary pretty early

0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:56.640
<v Speaker 1>on in this episode. If I'm if my memory starves me, right, yeah,

0:05:56.760 --> 0:06:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean we started I the episode before, right, like

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:03.359
<v Speaker 1>while we're filming the other episode. I think we started

0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:06.200
<v Speaker 1>rehearsing for this because this was going to take some

0:06:06.320 --> 0:06:09.520
<v Speaker 1>extra rehearsal time. Normally we rehearsed, as you've heard at

0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:11.760
<v Speaker 1>this point, was in our dance studio called the Tin Shed,

0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:16.960
<v Speaker 1>but they had to build this gigantic ramp contraption, and

0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:20.680
<v Speaker 1>so we started using the stage one of the sound

0:06:20.720 --> 0:06:23.520
<v Speaker 1>stages next door. Yes, that's right in the wheel in

0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:25.440
<v Speaker 1>the wheelchairs, yes, and all that was on. There was

0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:29.760
<v Speaker 1>this sort of mock up of this unfinished version of

0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:31.680
<v Speaker 1>what we ended up shooting with. It was just would

0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:35.000
<v Speaker 1>like plywood. Yeah, it wasn't pretty. So we were in

0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:40.240
<v Speaker 1>the wheelchairs and one day we're rehearsing prad Mary, we're

0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:42.680
<v Speaker 1>also shooting, you know, in the wheelchairs as well, the

0:06:42.720 --> 0:06:47.159
<v Speaker 1>scenes that you see us and Diana and Corey decided

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:49.560
<v Speaker 1>to take the wheelchairs throughout a lot like for the

0:06:49.560 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 1>whole day. And they came back and we're all sweaty

0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 1>and because on the sound stage because people always ask

0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:58.320
<v Speaker 1>me like, oh, did you get like muscles from doing

0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm like no, I'm on a flat, smooth surface all day.

0:07:03.080 --> 0:07:05.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm not really having to exert much energy, to be honest.

0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:09.359
<v Speaker 1>And the lot you know, has some ups and downs

0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:12.880
<v Speaker 1>and the road is not always perfect. And so they

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 1>came back and I remember we're all sweaty and gross

0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:18.120
<v Speaker 1>and had to have like their hair and makeup redone

0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:23.200
<v Speaker 1>like that was funny. I remember that. I also just

0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:28.760
<v Speaker 1>remember the wheelchairs did not everyone was struggling, so some

0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:31.280
<v Speaker 1>more than others. But I just remember at some point

0:07:31.640 --> 0:07:35.520
<v Speaker 1>people would disappear and just need like fifteen minutes to recover.

0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 1>Because at first, like Paris said, it was the ramps

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:42.000
<v Speaker 1>were too high at first as well. They had to

0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 1>make were like flying down those things, and people were

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:49.320
<v Speaker 1>falling on their sides on their back, like shooting backwards.

0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Remember Lee's wheelchair didn't have the brakes on it for

0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:55.240
<v Speaker 1>a while and she went straight back. So mine, if

0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:57.520
<v Speaker 1>you see close up, mine had these sort of like

0:07:57.560 --> 0:08:00.440
<v Speaker 1>stoppers on the back of them, and you could like

0:08:00.440 --> 0:08:03.080
<v Speaker 1>pop a wheelie basically and sit there. It was like

0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:05.520
<v Speaker 1>training wheels, although they looked like training wheels on a tricycle.

0:08:06.080 --> 0:08:08.960
<v Speaker 1>But some of like half the chairs didn't have those,

0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:12.920
<v Speaker 1>so some people thought they did assume there's like mine did,

0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:15.800
<v Speaker 1>and they went to go back and kept going back

0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:21.440
<v Speaker 1>and ended up on their backs. Yea, um, But I

0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:24.520
<v Speaker 1>loved that everyone had to be in a wheelchair. They

0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:27.200
<v Speaker 1>got to experience it for a little bit in real life. Yeah,

0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:28.800
<v Speaker 1>I was going to ask you how you thought about

0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I was really excited. I was really and it was

0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:36.320
<v Speaker 1>also my first solo and yeah, let's talk about it.

0:08:36.400 --> 0:08:40.000
<v Speaker 1>That was a big deal for me. And so tell me,

0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:44.160
<v Speaker 1>tell me what the So if you listen to Paris's episode,

0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Kevin tells us that he recorded this twice. Shouldn't normally happen. Yeah, no,

0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:53.400
<v Speaker 1>and you re recorded it? So what was the first version?

0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Because I vaguely remember this, but what what did it

0:08:56.559 --> 0:09:00.200
<v Speaker 1>sound like? So the full story? Before I recorded it,

0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:03.480
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know that the next episode is going to

0:09:03.480 --> 0:09:05.880
<v Speaker 1>be about us, and did not know I was going

0:09:05.960 --> 0:09:07.559
<v Speaker 1>to get you know, I don't know if we were

0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:10.000
<v Speaker 1>on the shooting the episode before this or two episodes

0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 1>before this. But Ryan walks up to me when we're

0:09:11.800 --> 0:09:14.880
<v Speaker 1>in the auditorium and he's like, you should listen to

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Dancing with Myself covered by Novelle Vague and learn it.

0:09:21.559 --> 0:09:23.319
<v Speaker 1>Something very exciting is coming for you. And would walk

0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:27.000
<v Speaker 1>away like what? And I do that? Yeah? And I

0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:31.600
<v Speaker 1>pull up this song and it's like the sweet little

0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:35.080
<v Speaker 1>acoustic thing, something style I had never sung in before,

0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:39.840
<v Speaker 1>and I was like what. I was not super I

0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:43.600
<v Speaker 1>was really excited about having a solo, but I was like,

0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:46.200
<v Speaker 1>this is the solo. I wanted something more flashy and

0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:48.920
<v Speaker 1>but little did I know this sort of set me up.

0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:51.760
<v Speaker 1>These are the types of songs already saying throughout the

0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:55.000
<v Speaker 1>entire series, which I really liked. And you know, just

0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:58.520
<v Speaker 1>we all got pushed vocally and outside of our comfort

0:09:58.600 --> 0:10:02.600
<v Speaker 1>zones and this was not within my comfort zone mm hmmm,

0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.320
<v Speaker 1>and I really appreciated that. But when it came to

0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:09.240
<v Speaker 1>recording it, I went in for several hours and had

0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:13.080
<v Speaker 1>a normal recording session and with Adamander's and we put

0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:15.640
<v Speaker 1>together the song just like we did with any other

0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:19.840
<v Speaker 1>thing up to that point. And then I get scheduled

0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:23.200
<v Speaker 1>to go back into record, and I'm like, you guys,

0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:25.600
<v Speaker 1>ever recorded this? I thought there was a mess up,

0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:29.200
<v Speaker 1>so I whoever was scheduling it, I was like, I

0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:31.880
<v Speaker 1>already did this. I don't think I think you know,

0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:34.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I need to go back. And they're like, no,

0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:41.320
<v Speaker 1>there was no from Ryan. Ryan thinks you sound too sexy.

0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:45.559
<v Speaker 1>That's right, funny because this version is very sexy as well. Well,

0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what. So I was very confused, and

0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:53.000
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I've never been called I remember this.

0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.040
<v Speaker 1>You were very breathy in the first one. I was,

0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:57.080
<v Speaker 1>and I was really proud of it. I loved it.

0:10:57.160 --> 0:11:00.040
<v Speaker 1>I should try to find it. I haven't. Please find it.

0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:05.360
<v Speaker 1>It's not that different, it's just it is a little more. Well,

0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:07.640
<v Speaker 1>you don't sound already, you sound like probably like more

0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:09.959
<v Speaker 1>like Kevin because I was singing everything up to that

0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:13.839
<v Speaker 1>point was very much in character. And then I went

0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:17.719
<v Speaker 1>in and we sort of Adam managers like, I don't know.

0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:20.760
<v Speaker 1>I thought that version was great because he and I

0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:23.040
<v Speaker 1>were big fans of the other version. And he's like,

0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:24.920
<v Speaker 1>just saying it through a couple of times, do whatever

0:11:24.920 --> 0:11:29.520
<v Speaker 1>you want, which never happened. Everything was very intentional, and

0:11:29.559 --> 0:11:31.560
<v Speaker 1>so I went in and saying it, I think two

0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:33.760
<v Speaker 1>or three times all the way through. He's like, Okay,

0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:35.679
<v Speaker 1>are you happy with that? I'm like yeah. And that

0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:38.280
<v Speaker 1>was it. So that that version is a little rougher.

0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:43.320
<v Speaker 1>It's not as good, but it's so good though. Thanks.

0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:45.719
<v Speaker 1>I didn't love it as much, but I was very

0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:48.960
<v Speaker 1>happy to I also when you're watching that, so the

0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:53.760
<v Speaker 1>filming of that as well, my mustaches started to grow back. Well,

0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:56.640
<v Speaker 1>you also look so tiny with that guitar sitting on

0:11:56.679 --> 0:12:00.800
<v Speaker 1>your lips. You look so tiny. It's all I remember

0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:03.280
<v Speaker 1>is like, I have to fake this guitar again. You

0:12:03.320 --> 0:12:04.839
<v Speaker 1>have to learn it again. The last shot of the

0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:08.320
<v Speaker 1>day on that stage, my mustache, the doubble has grown back.

0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm a harry sixteen year old and um shout out

0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:19.720
<v Speaker 1>to Aaron who was the stunt double fathering him because

0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:24.640
<v Speaker 1>he is actually in a wheelchair is incredible and if

0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.320
<v Speaker 1>you look closely, you'll see it whenever down that hallway

0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:30.320
<v Speaker 1>doing the tricks. He doesn't have, you know, the safeties

0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:33.840
<v Speaker 1>on like I do. They go magically, they magically disappear.

0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:38.040
<v Speaker 1>But um, he's someone that he goes, you know, to

0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:40.840
<v Speaker 1>the skate parks and do flips and tricks and he

0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:45.040
<v Speaker 1>he was runner up last year, and um, and America's

0:12:45.080 --> 0:12:49.319
<v Speaker 1>got talent. Extreme, he's and if you go watch videos

0:12:49.320 --> 0:12:52.640
<v Speaker 1>of him, he's absolutely insane. I don't know how he

0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:55.719
<v Speaker 1>does these things, but we were so lucky to get him,

0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:58.640
<v Speaker 1>and he came in and did all those incredible tricks

0:12:58.640 --> 0:13:10.200
<v Speaker 1>that I would never be able to do. So dancing

0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:13.160
<v Speaker 1>with myself was a big, you know, a big moment

0:13:13.679 --> 0:13:16.720
<v Speaker 1>for me and for Artie. It felt like a big deal.

0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:18.840
<v Speaker 1>And I got to do that slow mo for the

0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:24.200
<v Speaker 1>first time, like we talked about with Paris, which was

0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:28.240
<v Speaker 1>really fun and I looked crazy, but I remember Paris

0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:31.560
<v Speaker 1>telling me just flip your hair and laugh really loud,

0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:33.960
<v Speaker 1>and I remember Amber being on the other side of

0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:36.880
<v Speaker 1>the table and making laughing at me, and we were

0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 1>we were actually then ended up laughing a lot because

0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:43.000
<v Speaker 1>it's you know, when you have two fake laugh you

0:13:43.120 --> 0:13:45.880
<v Speaker 1>end up laughing because it's a stupid anyway, so you

0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:48.920
<v Speaker 1>just like laugh anyway. Um, this isn't about me, but

0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:52.880
<v Speaker 1>I think it is. But that was that was crazy

0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:55.600
<v Speaker 1>to see you shoot that because you had to do

0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:58.200
<v Speaker 1>it at warp speed. I don't know how you actually

0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:04.559
<v Speaker 1>it looks like very correct, your your mouth moving, um,

0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:07.560
<v Speaker 1>saying the proper words, because like I feel like doing

0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:09.800
<v Speaker 1>it at warp speed, You're like your brain is like, okay,

0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:12.520
<v Speaker 1>just say gibberish. I mean I had done it before

0:14:13.760 --> 0:14:17.120
<v Speaker 1>because of the boy band days where we did some

0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:21.200
<v Speaker 1>SloMo on a train track, and I think I I

0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:24.760
<v Speaker 1>had to do that before, So yeah, I and I

0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:30.000
<v Speaker 1>liked the challenge of it because it is insane. Um,

0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:31.240
<v Speaker 1>and I did it with p I T I did

0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:34.800
<v Speaker 1>for a bunch of numbers. Going forward, Okay, so everyone

0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 1>gets into wheelchairs, we start to have a bake sale.

0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:39.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, wait a second, I have to talk

0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:43.400
<v Speaker 1>about Naya here. This was a special thing she did

0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:49.160
<v Speaker 1>for us because I sort of because she was fully

0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:52.360
<v Speaker 1>doing it as a joke for us, and then the

0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 1>one they actually I remember her screaming when she saw

0:14:54.840 --> 0:14:56.840
<v Speaker 1>the final version of it, like, oh my god, they

0:14:56.920 --> 0:15:00.360
<v Speaker 1>used to take but it's so good. One time did it?

0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:04.800
<v Speaker 1>That way is the one they used her her stuff

0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:09.920
<v Speaker 1>in Proud Mary and and in this are golden nuggets. Yes,

0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:15.080
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't take my eyes off of her golden nuggets. Um. Okay.

0:15:15.080 --> 0:15:20.320
<v Speaker 1>So we have the big sale where uh Frankentine we

0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:25.840
<v Speaker 1>get to see him probably improvised, kicking this wheelchair so

0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:30.800
<v Speaker 1>large to this wheelchair. Um. And we have the big sale. Right.

0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:34.320
<v Speaker 1>This is also where we meet Becky for the first time.

0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:39.240
<v Speaker 1>That's right, Becky and Brittany are together, and by the

0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:43.280
<v Speaker 1>very talented Lauren Potter, who goes on to be in

0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:46.920
<v Speaker 1>the rest of this series. Oh yes, oh yes. She

0:15:47.000 --> 0:15:50.720
<v Speaker 1>starts off in like Sue Sylvester's kind of storyline her sister,

0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:54.040
<v Speaker 1>and then she really takes a turn and you know,

0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:56.400
<v Speaker 1>we work with Lauren throughout the entire series, which was

0:15:56.440 --> 0:16:02.560
<v Speaker 1>really fun to have her. And this the bake Sales

0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:05.200
<v Speaker 1>where we're kind of get into the other storyline about

0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:10.200
<v Speaker 1>Quinn and Finn. Finn having to get a job because

0:16:10.280 --> 0:16:13.360
<v Speaker 1>Quinn has all of these bills to pay for her

0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:15.920
<v Speaker 1>for the baby that she is raising. Just choosing to

0:16:16.000 --> 0:16:17.960
<v Speaker 1>raise with him, and she's like, tell me, I chose

0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:24.280
<v Speaker 1>the right man, Um messy, we'll get into all. Yeah,

0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:28.640
<v Speaker 1>so everybody has to be in these wheelchairs, right, And

0:16:29.760 --> 0:16:33.840
<v Speaker 1>that one of my favorite lines, which I think is

0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:39.040
<v Speaker 1>a contender for Ardi Takes, is when Already admits like

0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:42.120
<v Speaker 1>he his feelings are hurt because everybody has been very

0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:45.200
<v Speaker 1>insensitive and Rachel says, we didn't think you would take

0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:47.920
<v Speaker 1>your personally, and Already says, well, you're you're chaining most

0:16:47.920 --> 0:16:49.480
<v Speaker 1>of the time, but don't take that personally. And your

0:16:49.520 --> 0:16:55.600
<v Speaker 1>delivery was very good, um excellent, excellent, and it's very funny.

0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:58.920
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was very funny. I enjoyed watching Leah's

0:16:59.160 --> 0:17:03.600
<v Speaker 1>um performance in these first couple choir room scenes because

0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:09.159
<v Speaker 1>she is doing something that I thought was very smart

0:17:09.560 --> 0:17:12.399
<v Speaker 1>where she's still playing you know what happened in the

0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:16.320
<v Speaker 1>last episode, in the episode before that, and carrying it

0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:20.480
<v Speaker 1>through of she's trying to not speak up, you know,

0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:23.040
<v Speaker 1>when the whole defined gravity thing comes up, like she's

0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:25.560
<v Speaker 1>trying and then she doesn't really the thing that she

0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:29.400
<v Speaker 1>doesn't really talk bad about the whole already bus situation

0:17:29.440 --> 0:17:31.920
<v Speaker 1>in that first choreroom scene. No, she doesn't. But then

0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:41.560
<v Speaker 1>arties like, no, well already likes to just tell it

0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:45.600
<v Speaker 1>like it is. So then everybody gets in these wheelchairs

0:17:45.640 --> 0:17:47.760
<v Speaker 1>and we have this montage of people figuring out how

0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:53.879
<v Speaker 1>to use the wheelchairs. And if Beef stroken off on

0:17:54.520 --> 0:17:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Lea was absolutely she really gets it. Um between the

0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:03.200
<v Speaker 1>slushies and that I was like so gnarly, but it's

0:18:03.280 --> 0:18:06.880
<v Speaker 1>pretty Yeah, everybody in the wheel stress is very funny. Um.

0:18:08.160 --> 0:18:12.760
<v Speaker 1>And Tina, Tina's you know, playing the game, and she

0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:14.639
<v Speaker 1>talks to Already and says, you know, I just didn't

0:18:14.840 --> 0:18:16.000
<v Speaker 1>I have a lot of respect for you. Now, I

0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:19.320
<v Speaker 1>didn't realize how hard this was. And um, I don't

0:18:19.320 --> 0:18:21.520
<v Speaker 1>think that Tina really had to justify she wasn't really

0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:25.280
<v Speaker 1>the one who was, you know, being insensitive towards him anyway.

0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:31.159
<v Speaker 1>But I digress. Um. And you share about your car

0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:37.280
<v Speaker 1>accident and yeah, I'd say that it was um car

0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:43.000
<v Speaker 1>accident with my mother. Um. And people have pointed out

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:47.439
<v Speaker 1>that the age doesn't match up, like how old I

0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:51.160
<v Speaker 1>am and how old I was at the time, and

0:18:52.240 --> 0:18:59.640
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't really matter. Conne afterwards, Oh boy, um, already,

0:18:59.640 --> 0:19:02.320
<v Speaker 1>what did you say? Kevin M But I want to

0:19:02.320 --> 0:19:04.640
<v Speaker 1>be very clear. I still have the use of my penis,

0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:07.800
<v Speaker 1>which is important. Yeah, I wanted her to know. You know,

0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:11.920
<v Speaker 1>when you're a teenager and he's presumably getting his first

0:19:11.920 --> 0:19:18.679
<v Speaker 1>crush on the super hot Tina that he you know

0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:20.919
<v Speaker 1>what matters at that age. It's like you want to

0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:23.960
<v Speaker 1>feel competitive with all the other guys that you could

0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:29.720
<v Speaker 1>be dating or hooking up with, and way to break

0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:32.679
<v Speaker 1>the the mood. It got a little serious, you know,

0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:37.000
<v Speaker 1>just al that's already having no game but already actually

0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:39.840
<v Speaker 1>has a lot of game. I think, well, yeah, that

0:19:39.920 --> 0:19:43.640
<v Speaker 1>was the creating a monster here, because then already goes

0:19:43.760 --> 0:19:51.280
<v Speaker 1>on to just crush um. So we get, all right,

0:19:51.560 --> 0:19:53.320
<v Speaker 1>how do we how do we break this down? There's

0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:56.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot that comes up. So what's going on here

0:19:56.040 --> 0:20:00.560
<v Speaker 1>as well? So we've met Becky at the bakes. The

0:20:00.560 --> 0:20:03.640
<v Speaker 1>other storyline sort of within this, within this as well,

0:20:04.280 --> 0:20:09.840
<v Speaker 1>is while Shoe is trying to get Figgins to you know,

0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:13.119
<v Speaker 1>give him more money for for the for the bus,

0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:16.600
<v Speaker 1>for the bus, for handicapped ramps around the school. Whilst

0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:21.160
<v Speaker 1>rams around the school, um, he brings in um sue

0:20:21.480 --> 0:20:27.160
<v Speaker 1>because he's inspired. Figgins is inspired because it's free. UM.

0:20:27.280 --> 0:20:32.560
<v Speaker 1>By this inclusion of everyone. So Figgins then forces Sue

0:20:32.640 --> 0:20:36.320
<v Speaker 1>to hold auditions and she has to pick somebody who

0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:42.560
<v Speaker 1>she wouldn't normally and so through these incredible bring it

0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:46.600
<v Speaker 1>on like auditions, I was gonna say, yeah, can we

0:20:46.720 --> 0:20:48.760
<v Speaker 1>do that all the time? Can they just do a

0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:51.560
<v Speaker 1>show like that where we can just watch auditions happen?

0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Because this was my favorite. We also this is this

0:20:54.840 --> 0:20:59.640
<v Speaker 1>is the second shot. Now we see of Um with

0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:05.919
<v Speaker 1>Fink fastly think by Um Kurt as the wrestler, and

0:21:05.960 --> 0:21:08.400
<v Speaker 1>then she she's now auditioning here, but she comes back

0:21:08.440 --> 0:21:11.399
<v Speaker 1>in for you astute glee fans to come back to

0:21:11.400 --> 0:21:14.320
<v Speaker 1>be part of the glee club. Later on Lawrence, I

0:21:14.440 --> 0:21:18.760
<v Speaker 1>sees Um brought in. Okay, So so the tryouts with

0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:27.480
<v Speaker 1>the cheerios, Um, it's funny, they're funny Ambers auditions, Hey, Mike,

0:21:27.520 --> 0:21:30.840
<v Speaker 1>you only Chris is UM this. I think the baton

0:21:31.040 --> 0:21:35.520
<v Speaker 1>twirling was a thing inspired by Chris's size swords that

0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:38.720
<v Speaker 1>he twirls all the time, and he's been doing it

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:40.959
<v Speaker 1>for years and he's very good at it. It's very scary.

0:21:41.119 --> 0:21:46.480
<v Speaker 1>It's like small swords. UM. And and then that very

0:21:46.680 --> 0:21:53.879
<v Speaker 1>lanky man who did that very weird CONTORTIONISTUM audition again,

0:21:54.560 --> 0:21:57.560
<v Speaker 1>I like to call it an audition, not to try out. Uh.

0:21:57.600 --> 0:22:02.320
<v Speaker 1>And then we have Becky Jackson and well we don't

0:22:02.359 --> 0:22:06.880
<v Speaker 1>know is that obviously Sue has a sister who has

0:22:06.880 --> 0:22:10.439
<v Speaker 1>Down syndrome as well, and Shoe thinks that she's up

0:22:10.480 --> 0:22:14.320
<v Speaker 1>to something when she um says that Becky Jackson has

0:22:14.359 --> 0:22:17.720
<v Speaker 1>made the team and was married. I mean, and and

0:22:17.840 --> 0:22:23.199
<v Speaker 1>Schuster is worried and we're missing something I thought. I

0:22:23.200 --> 0:22:27.960
<v Speaker 1>thought the storyline was so good, um and done so well.

0:22:28.040 --> 0:22:32.560
<v Speaker 1>And Jane was absolutely absolutely incredible. And for people who

0:22:32.640 --> 0:22:36.080
<v Speaker 1>are used to seeing Jane as Sylvester or if you

0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:38.960
<v Speaker 1>watch her and anything else, she's like Mazel where she

0:22:39.080 --> 0:22:42.880
<v Speaker 1>plays the sort of tough character. The real Jane Lynch

0:22:43.359 --> 0:22:47.600
<v Speaker 1>is Sue that walks into the room to see her sister.

0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:51.120
<v Speaker 1>That is how she greets you in real life. That

0:22:51.240 --> 0:22:57.360
<v Speaker 1>is is calm, calm, inviting, so happy to see you. UM.

0:22:57.400 --> 0:23:01.520
<v Speaker 1>And that scene is so beautiful and um, they are

0:23:01.600 --> 0:23:05.679
<v Speaker 1>both so so good in that. I know, and Robin

0:23:06.080 --> 0:23:12.639
<v Speaker 1>who um has passed away sadly, UM, but you know

0:23:12.760 --> 0:23:16.960
<v Speaker 1>she will. She will make appearances in multiple other episodes

0:23:17.000 --> 0:23:20.560
<v Speaker 1>with Jane as well. And every time it's just um,

0:23:20.640 --> 0:23:24.480
<v Speaker 1>just so beautifully done and shot and performed so and

0:23:24.480 --> 0:23:27.160
<v Speaker 1>in a really nice addition, well this is and this

0:23:27.240 --> 0:23:29.080
<v Speaker 1>is the first time that we actually get to see

0:23:29.160 --> 0:23:33.639
<v Speaker 1>exactly this is like we're humanizing the villain, which at

0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:35.320
<v Speaker 1>this point you kind of had to do a little bit.

0:23:35.359 --> 0:23:37.320
<v Speaker 1>We did. We saw a little bit with rod you know,

0:23:37.320 --> 0:23:41.280
<v Speaker 1>Remington where she was trying and now we see like

0:23:41.359 --> 0:23:44.120
<v Speaker 1>this kind of more very very human side of hers.

0:23:44.160 --> 0:23:46.399
<v Speaker 1>And I think it's nice to see it was it

0:23:46.480 --> 0:23:49.760
<v Speaker 1>was done so well, and I love that, you know,

0:23:49.760 --> 0:23:52.160
<v Speaker 1>it'sn't something that's brought up once and never mentioned again.

0:23:52.320 --> 0:23:55.520
<v Speaker 1>It's something that is recurring through the entire show and

0:23:56.800 --> 0:23:59.920
<v Speaker 1>um and I think it impacted people in real life

0:24:00.040 --> 0:24:03.119
<v Speaker 1>a lot, and it was nice to get you know,

0:24:03.200 --> 0:24:06.280
<v Speaker 1>in one episode two people with um down syndrome who

0:24:06.280 --> 0:24:12.600
<v Speaker 1>were incredible actors and um yeah yeah, I just I

0:24:12.640 --> 0:24:14.920
<v Speaker 1>again had to like look away so I didn't start

0:24:14.960 --> 0:24:22.199
<v Speaker 1>crying during its um alright, So so within that, like

0:24:22.280 --> 0:24:25.560
<v Speaker 1>that's the other storyline, within the bigger storyline. But we

0:24:25.680 --> 0:24:29.840
<v Speaker 1>go back to the Big Sale, right, and they have

0:24:29.960 --> 0:24:33.240
<v Speaker 1>the Big Sale, and we obviously know that Puck is

0:24:33.280 --> 0:24:36.520
<v Speaker 1>the father and he he wants Quinn and he wants

0:24:36.560 --> 0:24:42.720
<v Speaker 1>to show up, so he's going to do something bad

0:24:43.119 --> 0:24:49.679
<v Speaker 1>and he goes to Sandy Royerson and um he gets

0:24:49.800 --> 0:24:55.800
<v Speaker 1>his uh the chronic the chronic lady, the chronic lady,

0:24:56.080 --> 0:24:59.879
<v Speaker 1>and he bakes them into the cupcakes. Because this is

0:25:00.160 --> 0:25:04.560
<v Speaker 1>this goes into the the love triangle sort of of

0:25:05.119 --> 0:25:10.040
<v Speaker 1>the Quinn, Finn and Puck, where they're both Finn and

0:25:10.080 --> 0:25:14.760
<v Speaker 1>Puck are both vying for the attention of Quinn, trying

0:25:14.760 --> 0:25:17.600
<v Speaker 1>to show that they can step up and be fathers

0:25:17.680 --> 0:25:22.399
<v Speaker 1>to this unborn baby, and we're Finn is failing at

0:25:22.480 --> 0:25:24.680
<v Speaker 1>a comical level. He can't get hired as a bus

0:25:24.680 --> 0:25:31.760
<v Speaker 1>boy because he's too tall. Um um uh yeah, what

0:25:31.800 --> 0:25:35.360
<v Speaker 1>he knows how to do. And he ends up raising

0:25:36.240 --> 0:25:40.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of twelve in the big sale um and

0:25:41.040 --> 0:25:44.560
<v Speaker 1>takes some of it and gives it to Quinn and

0:25:44.600 --> 0:25:48.640
<v Speaker 1>she refuses it. But at that same time Finn shows

0:25:48.760 --> 0:25:52.879
<v Speaker 1>up and it's like, I got a job. This also

0:25:52.920 --> 0:25:56.120
<v Speaker 1>a contention for charity takes of things at an age

0:25:56.119 --> 0:26:01.960
<v Speaker 1>well of of Finn and Rachel going in say he's

0:26:01.960 --> 0:26:05.399
<v Speaker 1>in a wheelchair to get a job, and he had

0:26:05.480 --> 0:26:07.439
<v Speaker 1>staying the saying the wheelchair the whole time. He has

0:26:07.440 --> 0:26:11.680
<v Speaker 1>the job, but you know, you know, also part of

0:26:11.680 --> 0:26:14.840
<v Speaker 1>the storyline is this incredible fight sequence in the hallway,

0:26:15.400 --> 0:26:18.080
<v Speaker 1>but with their we have more stunt doubles this time.

0:26:18.280 --> 0:26:21.119
<v Speaker 1>I remember watching this being shot. Why did we were

0:26:21.119 --> 0:26:23.080
<v Speaker 1>all there for this? We were I think we were

0:26:23.119 --> 0:26:27.160
<v Speaker 1>rehearsing for Proud Mary happened to be during this. We

0:26:27.160 --> 0:26:29.879
<v Speaker 1>were all in the stage right next door to the

0:26:29.920 --> 0:26:32.520
<v Speaker 1>mcchems set, and I remember I had to go shoot

0:26:32.720 --> 0:26:36.200
<v Speaker 1>dancing with myself in the hallway. Were there? I think

0:26:36.200 --> 0:26:40.360
<v Speaker 1>we were there for rehearsals and were running out and yeah, yeah,

0:26:40.440 --> 0:26:43.359
<v Speaker 1>they had. I thought it was a really well executed

0:26:43.440 --> 0:26:45.280
<v Speaker 1>fight sequence because you don't really you can't tell it's

0:26:45.320 --> 0:26:51.560
<v Speaker 1>the stunt doubles. He just wasn't the mohawk fake. And

0:26:51.920 --> 0:26:56.120
<v Speaker 1>also after this incredible Paris tells this incredible story about

0:26:57.040 --> 0:27:01.119
<v Speaker 1>UM the flower in the air from the sort of

0:27:01.240 --> 0:27:07.760
<v Speaker 1>cute food fight baking fight between UM where that scene

0:27:07.800 --> 0:27:11.000
<v Speaker 1>got shut down for a while because there was a

0:27:11.200 --> 0:27:18.360
<v Speaker 1>potential fire hazard risk discrepancy and because the fire yeah yeah,

0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:22.000
<v Speaker 1>yeah yeah, um so so okay, So Puck raises the

0:27:23.680 --> 0:27:29.399
<v Speaker 1>UM thanks to the munchies, and then we present that

0:27:29.480 --> 0:27:32.359
<v Speaker 1>money with two already for the bus so he can

0:27:32.440 --> 0:27:35.880
<v Speaker 1>ride with us the sectionals, and you decide that you're

0:27:35.880 --> 0:27:40.879
<v Speaker 1>going to do the bigger the bigger issue at hand

0:27:41.000 --> 0:27:44.119
<v Speaker 1>is the ramps at school, and you're going to donate

0:27:44.160 --> 0:27:47.760
<v Speaker 1>this money so that other kids can also benefit from

0:27:47.840 --> 0:27:50.440
<v Speaker 1>um from the ramps who are in wheelchairs as well.

0:27:50.520 --> 0:27:54.120
<v Speaker 1>So those very kind of you already, and and then

0:27:54.320 --> 0:27:59.840
<v Speaker 1>you you make Tina with that that very generous move in,

0:28:00.200 --> 0:28:05.600
<v Speaker 1>and you make Tina fall in love with you, just

0:28:05.640 --> 0:28:10.359
<v Speaker 1>like real life Jenna, Yeah, exactly. And so Tina and

0:28:10.400 --> 0:28:13.879
<v Speaker 1>already now go on their date together, and we're in

0:28:13.920 --> 0:28:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the hallway, in the very dark hallway again. I don't

0:28:17.240 --> 0:28:19.800
<v Speaker 1>know what we're doing there that late at night, but

0:28:20.000 --> 0:28:23.439
<v Speaker 1>here we are. And the first scene we shot for

0:28:23.520 --> 0:28:27.200
<v Speaker 1>this episode, I feel like it was very early on, yes,

0:28:27.359 --> 0:28:29.520
<v Speaker 1>and I remember being nervous about it because it was

0:28:29.600 --> 0:28:31.720
<v Speaker 1>so early into the opposite. I think it was the

0:28:31.720 --> 0:28:35.200
<v Speaker 1>first scene we shot of our storyline, and I remember

0:28:35.240 --> 0:28:38.560
<v Speaker 1>you and I walking to stage working on our lines,

0:28:38.720 --> 0:28:42.480
<v Speaker 1>working on our lines. We were both very nervous. And also,

0:28:43.320 --> 0:28:46.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, when it's a an intimate scene like this,

0:28:46.280 --> 0:28:49.120
<v Speaker 1>there's two people, it's very quiet. You have all that

0:28:49.200 --> 0:28:53.880
<v Speaker 1>crew who probably aren't paying attention to you because they're

0:28:54.040 --> 0:28:56.280
<v Speaker 1>staring as it feels like there's a hundred people just

0:28:56.400 --> 0:29:01.080
<v Speaker 1>watching you. And Paris is very intimidating. And I also

0:29:01.560 --> 0:29:05.160
<v Speaker 1>this very shortly. I mean, I think this was when

0:29:05.160 --> 0:29:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I found out, like the night before, this is when

0:29:08.080 --> 0:29:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I found out that the stutter was fake. So up

0:29:11.360 --> 0:29:15.800
<v Speaker 1>until this point, I thought the stutter was real. And

0:29:15.920 --> 0:29:20.760
<v Speaker 1>so this changed my whole I was like, oh my god,

0:29:21.000 --> 0:29:23.800
<v Speaker 1>like and and there were pros and cons to it,

0:29:23.960 --> 0:29:27.680
<v Speaker 1>right because it at one point. I never never wanted

0:29:27.720 --> 0:29:30.840
<v Speaker 1>it to feel like I was making fun of a

0:29:30.920 --> 0:29:33.520
<v Speaker 1>person with the who you know has a stutter or

0:29:33.720 --> 0:29:37.640
<v Speaker 1>experienced a stutter. And um, I really took it seriously.

0:29:37.720 --> 0:29:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I did research. I um because Tina actually had tourettes

0:29:41.240 --> 0:29:43.480
<v Speaker 1>to start with, and then they cut that from her

0:29:43.560 --> 0:29:45.960
<v Speaker 1>character and just made it a stutter. And Ian Brennan

0:29:46.040 --> 0:29:49.520
<v Speaker 1>was super excited to tell me about this because, UM,

0:29:49.600 --> 0:29:52.240
<v Speaker 1>he thought I would be excited. I think to have

0:29:52.360 --> 0:29:56.200
<v Speaker 1>this like new layer, UM revealed that we all have

0:29:56.320 --> 0:29:59.160
<v Speaker 1>these like secrets now right, you get to see like

0:29:59.240 --> 0:30:01.920
<v Speaker 1>a deeper layer of Tina and why she did what

0:30:02.080 --> 0:30:04.360
<v Speaker 1>she did. Um, And this is when I kind of

0:30:04.360 --> 0:30:07.400
<v Speaker 1>came up with the the notion of Tina being an

0:30:07.480 --> 0:30:09.600
<v Speaker 1>onion because we didn't see a lot of her and

0:30:09.720 --> 0:30:12.400
<v Speaker 1>to begin with, and so now we're like, we're pulling

0:30:12.440 --> 0:30:15.640
<v Speaker 1>back each layer of her and as we get deeper

0:30:15.680 --> 0:30:17.680
<v Speaker 1>into the season's obviously she comes out with like a

0:30:17.680 --> 0:30:21.840
<v Speaker 1>lot of crazy but earlier and now we get we

0:30:21.920 --> 0:30:26.360
<v Speaker 1>get to see more of her storyline, backstory and who

0:30:26.400 --> 0:30:31.320
<v Speaker 1>she is. So I mean it was also really interesting too.

0:30:31.880 --> 0:30:33.480
<v Speaker 1>All of a sudden, it's like, oh, here's someone that

0:30:33.520 --> 0:30:36.360
<v Speaker 1>we thought we knew, and here's someone you thought you

0:30:36.400 --> 0:30:38.920
<v Speaker 1>knew that you've been playing right, And then it also

0:30:38.960 --> 0:30:42.480
<v Speaker 1>gave you know, Alreadie and Tina conflict and agency to

0:30:42.600 --> 0:30:45.600
<v Speaker 1>be like I thought it was very valid. The way

0:30:45.600 --> 0:30:48.280
<v Speaker 1>I already felt about it, it was like no bitch,

0:30:49.320 --> 0:30:51.920
<v Speaker 1>I was. I was also like, no, give her a chance.

0:30:53.840 --> 0:30:56.000
<v Speaker 1>I know. I was like, this was so short lived,

0:30:56.440 --> 0:30:59.800
<v Speaker 1>so short lived. Anyway, Um, then we kiss, you know,

0:31:00.160 --> 0:31:04.800
<v Speaker 1>kids important thing. It felt like, I mean, it's like

0:31:04.880 --> 0:31:08.240
<v Speaker 1>everybody's watching, but at the same time, like it didn't

0:31:08.320 --> 0:31:11.520
<v Speaker 1>feel like anything because we didn't have to make out right,

0:31:11.680 --> 0:31:14.520
<v Speaker 1>it was like a sweet little and that'd be real.

0:31:14.560 --> 0:31:18.000
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't the first time. Really was this not the

0:31:18.000 --> 0:31:21.480
<v Speaker 1>first time? There's no way, Jenna alright, fine, I thought

0:31:21.520 --> 0:31:25.120
<v Speaker 1>that was later, but okay, right, Um, I just assume

0:31:25.240 --> 0:31:29.240
<v Speaker 1>like there's no way maybe. And what I mean is

0:31:29.480 --> 0:31:37.680
<v Speaker 1>Jenna and I, I mean, nobody needs to know. This

0:31:37.840 --> 0:31:40.280
<v Speaker 1>is what I mean is like we would all kiss

0:31:40.320 --> 0:31:43.440
<v Speaker 1>each other as friends. Yeah, yeah, it's it's Jenna and

0:31:43.440 --> 0:31:46.760
<v Speaker 1>I weren't having some steamy affair. That's not what I mean.

0:31:46.840 --> 0:31:50.440
<v Speaker 1>Like we would, you know what, those partying days, we'd

0:31:50.440 --> 0:31:54.720
<v Speaker 1>all just like kiss each other kissed. He also was innocent, Um,

0:31:55.240 --> 0:31:56.960
<v Speaker 1>but no, yeah, you're right, it probably wasn't the first

0:31:56.960 --> 0:32:01.040
<v Speaker 1>time kissed. And uh, it was just weird that everybody

0:32:01.080 --> 0:32:02.680
<v Speaker 1>was watching any new millions of people were going to

0:32:02.720 --> 0:32:04.840
<v Speaker 1>watch That is very strange to think about because at

0:32:04.880 --> 0:32:06.600
<v Speaker 1>that point to you like, you know, how many millions

0:32:06.640 --> 0:32:08.560
<v Speaker 1>of people are going to be watching it? Mm hmm.

0:32:08.640 --> 0:32:10.880
<v Speaker 1>And it's such a short scene to feel like I was,

0:32:10.920 --> 0:32:14.080
<v Speaker 1>so we were so nervous about it. But it was

0:32:14.120 --> 0:32:18.360
<v Speaker 1>the first like grounded scene that we had ever done. Yea,

0:32:19.280 --> 0:32:20.920
<v Speaker 1>and you get to see more of both of us,

0:32:21.160 --> 0:32:24.560
<v Speaker 1>both of our characters, so it was nice. Um. And

0:32:24.600 --> 0:32:28.560
<v Speaker 1>then the end of this storyline is Obviously everybody is

0:32:29.720 --> 0:32:36.360
<v Speaker 1>more empathetic towards Artie. We are celebrating you, um, and

0:32:37.200 --> 0:32:40.760
<v Speaker 1>we do pred Mary and proud Mary was. I was

0:32:40.760 --> 0:32:44.240
<v Speaker 1>watching this number with such joy last night. I think

0:32:44.240 --> 0:32:48.200
<v Speaker 1>I cried like four times watching this number. Um from

0:32:48.600 --> 0:32:51.880
<v Speaker 1>laughter from remembering people falling all over the place. Our

0:32:52.000 --> 0:32:57.720
<v Speaker 1>arms were so sore the next day, and also um

0:32:57.760 --> 0:33:00.719
<v Speaker 1>remembering having having to do all these background vocals and

0:33:00.800 --> 0:33:04.760
<v Speaker 1>like lip sync them correctly, and it was it was

0:33:04.800 --> 0:33:07.480
<v Speaker 1>a lot. It was a lot. I remember the recording

0:33:07.520 --> 0:33:10.280
<v Speaker 1>of it a lot. Yes, I wasn't originally supposed to

0:33:10.320 --> 0:33:14.920
<v Speaker 1>do that good job. Remember this, and I think you're like, oh,

0:33:14.960 --> 0:33:17.120
<v Speaker 1>I have to do that. I think was supposed to

0:33:17.160 --> 0:33:20.080
<v Speaker 1>do it, but it was too low or something like that,

0:33:20.160 --> 0:33:22.920
<v Speaker 1>and so then they had also like storyline wise, it

0:33:23.000 --> 0:33:24.920
<v Speaker 1>made sense for you to do it. Yeah, So I

0:33:25.000 --> 0:33:26.320
<v Speaker 1>think it worked out. I think it was just sort

0:33:26.320 --> 0:33:28.040
<v Speaker 1>of one of those things that they had an idea

0:33:28.200 --> 0:33:32.160
<v Speaker 1>and then didn't pan out. But Zach did an incredible job.

0:33:34.880 --> 0:33:36.680
<v Speaker 1>We all were like I can't do that, I can't

0:33:36.680 --> 0:33:39.400
<v Speaker 1>do that move, and he would be like, okay, guys,

0:33:39.720 --> 0:33:43.400
<v Speaker 1>let's do this instead. And the shaky um thing was

0:33:43.440 --> 0:33:46.480
<v Speaker 1>our favorite. That was our favorite move to do because

0:33:46.480 --> 0:33:49.239
<v Speaker 1>it was the easiest. I loved getting to record this

0:33:49.320 --> 0:33:51.959
<v Speaker 1>with you and Amber. Do you remember when we were

0:33:52.040 --> 0:33:54.600
<v Speaker 1>all sitting in the recording studio and Adam was like,

0:33:54.920 --> 0:33:58.920
<v Speaker 1>m okay, let's just try this. We don't really know

0:33:59.000 --> 0:34:02.080
<v Speaker 1>because remember we did get a demo. That's one of

0:34:02.080 --> 0:34:03.760
<v Speaker 1>the only songs we can get a demo for, And

0:34:03.840 --> 0:34:06.960
<v Speaker 1>so I didn't know what the version was going to be,

0:34:07.000 --> 0:34:09.680
<v Speaker 1>and like, how am I going to sing? Can I

0:34:09.680 --> 0:34:15.120
<v Speaker 1>sing that low? We're just kind of throwing things against

0:34:16.160 --> 0:34:18.200
<v Speaker 1>and that number really goes down in history as one

0:34:18.200 --> 0:34:25.160
<v Speaker 1>of my favorite numbers to do. Watch and remember. Um okay. So,

0:34:25.160 --> 0:34:28.080
<v Speaker 1>so we're missing a big storyline here so far that

0:34:28.120 --> 0:34:31.360
<v Speaker 1>we have not talked about, and it is the defying

0:34:31.400 --> 0:34:35.240
<v Speaker 1>gravity of it, the diva which we get to see.

0:34:36.239 --> 0:34:39.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this storyline is really Curt and Burt right again,

0:34:39.360 --> 0:34:41.840
<v Speaker 1>we get to see more of the amazing Michael Maalley

0:34:41.960 --> 0:34:45.560
<v Speaker 1>and curtain Burt's relationship really blossom and bloom. You understand

0:34:46.160 --> 0:34:49.040
<v Speaker 1>the two of them, and it's um a lot of

0:34:49.360 --> 0:34:52.920
<v Speaker 1>effing heart. Um again, this is like the heart of

0:34:52.960 --> 0:35:01.879
<v Speaker 1>the show. But h Kurt tells his dad that Um, well,

0:35:02.040 --> 0:35:04.040
<v Speaker 1>Mr Shoo picks the song to find gravity and obviously

0:35:04.040 --> 0:35:07.160
<v Speaker 1>it's going to Rachel, right, but Kurt thought it was

0:35:07.160 --> 0:35:09.799
<v Speaker 1>going to him, and he's upset. Mr She doesn't learn.

0:35:10.120 --> 0:35:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Mr She was just like, I'm not gonna here's here's

0:35:12.960 --> 0:35:14.400
<v Speaker 1>the song, and this is who's doing it, and it's

0:35:14.480 --> 0:35:17.880
<v Speaker 1>Rachel again. And Mercedes isn't happy because she's like what

0:35:18.000 --> 0:35:21.200
<v Speaker 1>the hell? And Kurt is sitting there sort of pensive.

0:35:23.280 --> 0:35:27.000
<v Speaker 1>So he tells Bert in the in his tire store

0:35:27.160 --> 0:35:34.440
<v Speaker 1>or tire shop, which I also was like, oh wheels, Jenna, Jenna. Um,

0:35:36.160 --> 0:35:39.840
<v Speaker 1>I really it took till two for me to figure

0:35:39.880 --> 0:35:43.920
<v Speaker 1>that out. Um. Kurt tells Bert that he wanted the

0:35:43.960 --> 0:35:48.040
<v Speaker 1>solo but he's not considered because it's, you know, performed

0:35:48.200 --> 0:35:51.440
<v Speaker 1>by a woman. And Bert says, well, you sing like

0:35:51.440 --> 0:35:54.600
<v Speaker 1>a girl, you know, in a good way. Um. But

0:35:54.719 --> 0:35:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Mr Hamwill gets really upset. Bert goes to Mr. Principal

0:35:57.960 --> 0:36:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Figgins and Mr. She was like, look, I can't give

0:36:02.520 --> 0:36:07.680
<v Speaker 1>him the part, but we could do a stay off

0:36:08.239 --> 0:36:10.879
<v Speaker 1>or a tryout, right, we let an audition for it.

0:36:11.840 --> 0:36:18.200
<v Speaker 1>This montage of Kurt doing the warm up um, and

0:36:18.239 --> 0:36:25.879
<v Speaker 1>then the phone call is brilliant and heartbreaking and one

0:36:25.920 --> 0:36:30.440
<v Speaker 1>of my favorite of the most tragic moments of the show,

0:36:30.800 --> 0:36:37.360
<v Speaker 1>Like I was, it hits so hard and it really

0:36:37.560 --> 0:36:39.960
<v Speaker 1>it brought again it like brought it back down to

0:36:40.000 --> 0:36:42.800
<v Speaker 1>the ground nous of like what Paris is talking about,

0:36:43.000 --> 0:36:45.920
<v Speaker 1>like bringing into the social issues and the truth in

0:36:46.120 --> 0:36:49.239
<v Speaker 1>the show. And he gets an anonymous phone call saying

0:36:49.239 --> 0:36:52.680
<v Speaker 1>that his son is fact, which is horrible, and like

0:36:52.760 --> 0:36:57.200
<v Speaker 1>what a balance of writing and music, like the scoring

0:36:57.320 --> 0:37:01.400
<v Speaker 1>and the directing of these storylines are all quite different

0:37:01.880 --> 0:37:05.719
<v Speaker 1>and are all boiling at different emotions, and you get

0:37:05.719 --> 0:37:07.160
<v Speaker 1>to that phone call and all of a sudden, this

0:37:07.400 --> 0:37:11.360
<v Speaker 1>feels eerie and dark and troubling, and like in the

0:37:11.440 --> 0:37:13.800
<v Speaker 1>middle of Glee episode where it doesn't you don't normally

0:37:14.560 --> 0:37:20.200
<v Speaker 1>feel that. And Michael Malley, who played Bert, is just

0:37:20.480 --> 0:37:25.560
<v Speaker 1>so so good and he and Chris are both very

0:37:25.640 --> 0:37:29.959
<v Speaker 1>serious actors and take it very seriously and are trying

0:37:30.000 --> 0:37:31.839
<v Speaker 1>to understand where the characters are coming from. And it's

0:37:31.840 --> 0:37:34.920
<v Speaker 1>like every time Bert opens his mouth, you know the

0:37:34.960 --> 0:37:37.520
<v Speaker 1>amount of work and thought that went into that. Yes,

0:37:37.640 --> 0:37:40.600
<v Speaker 1>you would like see Michael Malley every very few like

0:37:40.680 --> 0:37:42.360
<v Speaker 1>the few amount of times that we actually got to

0:37:42.400 --> 0:37:44.759
<v Speaker 1>work with Mike you' always see him in rehearsal, like

0:37:44.840 --> 0:37:49.759
<v Speaker 1>working through it still, like really digging deep into like

0:37:49.840 --> 0:37:53.239
<v Speaker 1>why he's there and what he's doing. And um, and

0:37:53.760 --> 0:37:56.399
<v Speaker 1>I believe that they made each other better actors as well,

0:37:56.480 --> 0:38:02.680
<v Speaker 1>because they're both so excellent at the top of their game. Um. So, uh,

0:38:02.880 --> 0:38:05.880
<v Speaker 1>we have the first Diva off. We have our first

0:38:06.320 --> 0:38:10.239
<v Speaker 1>Diva off and it's a Divine Gravity. Which have you

0:38:10.239 --> 0:38:12.680
<v Speaker 1>heard the song before? Kevin? No, I hadn't heard the

0:38:12.719 --> 0:38:18.800
<v Speaker 1>song before dinner. God. Yeah, I hadn't heard the actual

0:38:19.000 --> 0:38:23.240
<v Speaker 1>version of this song until we did it, maybe after

0:38:23.440 --> 0:38:26.960
<v Speaker 1>years ago. So we okay. So the only version of

0:38:27.040 --> 0:38:29.880
<v Speaker 1>behind Gravity you knew was Kurt was Leah and and

0:38:29.960 --> 0:38:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Chris and then Amber as well. I only pop version,

0:38:35.840 --> 0:38:38.400
<v Speaker 1>that's really I didn't know. And then I went and

0:38:38.440 --> 0:38:45.920
<v Speaker 1>saw Wicked on Broadway, uh, with Jackie and Jeff and

0:38:46.200 --> 0:38:52.799
<v Speaker 1>friend Jackie and jack and I. The song happens, you know,

0:38:52.840 --> 0:38:56.759
<v Speaker 1>in the actual stage musical, and I hadn't realized. I

0:38:56.800 --> 0:38:58.200
<v Speaker 1>was on the edge of my feet, I mean on

0:38:58.239 --> 0:39:01.919
<v Speaker 1>the edge of my feet, mouth open, tears down my face.

0:39:01.960 --> 0:39:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh, now I get it. I gotta

0:39:08.080 --> 0:39:12.440
<v Speaker 1>listen to Wicked today. Now it's so excited, magical theater

0:39:12.520 --> 0:39:16.240
<v Speaker 1>experience I've ever had. And I looked over and Austin

0:39:16.640 --> 0:39:20.000
<v Speaker 1>was just staring at me, smiling, crying. He's like, I

0:39:20.080 --> 0:39:24.320
<v Speaker 1>was waiting for this moment, proud moment. I had no idea. Yeah,

0:39:24.640 --> 0:39:27.799
<v Speaker 1>so I'm well, I'm glad you you've made your way

0:39:27.800 --> 0:39:33.440
<v Speaker 1>around to the Broadway. It couldn't be happier. Um, Kurt

0:39:33.680 --> 0:39:37.120
<v Speaker 1>makes everybody promise. He says, we all know I'm more

0:39:37.160 --> 0:39:40.000
<v Speaker 1>popular than Rachel and I dress better than her, which

0:39:40.040 --> 0:39:41.960
<v Speaker 1>is true. But I want you all to promise me

0:39:42.000 --> 0:39:44.360
<v Speaker 1>that you're going to vote for whoever sings the song better.

0:39:45.280 --> 0:39:50.440
<v Speaker 1>And then he does the unthinkable. He throws it. He

0:39:50.480 --> 0:39:54.120
<v Speaker 1>throws it on this beautifully shot number where we talked

0:39:54.160 --> 0:39:59.200
<v Speaker 1>with Paris about moving, going behind the back road the transitions. Um, yeah,

0:39:59.239 --> 0:40:03.040
<v Speaker 1>he intends, really bombs on the high note. And because

0:40:03.320 --> 0:40:10.799
<v Speaker 1>has this really really beautiful moment with Bert, and he said, UM, like,

0:40:10.880 --> 0:40:12.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying I'm going to hiden the closet. I'm

0:40:12.600 --> 0:40:14.200
<v Speaker 1>proud of who him. I'm just saying that I love

0:40:14.239 --> 0:40:17.160
<v Speaker 1>you more than I love being a star. Because he's

0:40:17.239 --> 0:40:23.200
<v Speaker 1>used to the insults, but Bert isn't. And so he's

0:40:24.000 --> 0:40:27.640
<v Speaker 1>taking the time for them both to grow together into

0:40:28.239 --> 0:40:31.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, Kurt as an out gay man. I don't

0:40:31.320 --> 0:40:33.600
<v Speaker 1>think I ever asked you this, Kevin, did you were

0:40:33.640 --> 0:40:36.839
<v Speaker 1>you like, I know, you were so close to it,

0:40:36.920 --> 0:40:39.239
<v Speaker 1>so maybe it's too close for comfort, But like, were

0:40:39.239 --> 0:40:42.960
<v Speaker 1>you affected by these storylines like as a gay man,

0:40:43.160 --> 0:40:46.120
<v Speaker 1>or like was it just to kind of like in

0:40:46.160 --> 0:40:48.799
<v Speaker 1>the world, like intermixed in the world for you? Um,

0:40:50.560 --> 0:40:56.200
<v Speaker 1>I had a very hard time removing myself like from

0:40:56.239 --> 0:41:01.160
<v Speaker 1>so I appreciated it from the standpoint of I watched

0:41:01.200 --> 0:41:05.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of gay media. There wasn't very much of

0:41:05.080 --> 0:41:07.319
<v Speaker 1>it at the time. I was always desperate for it,

0:41:07.360 --> 0:41:11.640
<v Speaker 1>So I I loved watching them act together. I love

0:41:11.719 --> 0:41:13.960
<v Speaker 1>that these were the scenes that were being seen on

0:41:14.000 --> 0:41:18.200
<v Speaker 1>network television. I understood the importance of that. I didn't

0:41:18.200 --> 0:41:25.120
<v Speaker 1>necessarily relate to Kurt as a person, um, but I

0:41:25.200 --> 0:41:30.279
<v Speaker 1>absolutely adored and was obsessed with these scenes and the storyline.

0:41:30.920 --> 0:41:34.719
<v Speaker 1>UM because this this didn't we were doing a lot

0:41:34.719 --> 0:41:38.440
<v Speaker 1>of things that didn't happen on network television. And I

0:41:38.520 --> 0:41:40.880
<v Speaker 1>was excited because I knew like the work I had

0:41:40.920 --> 0:41:43.319
<v Speaker 1>to do to try to find shows that had gay storylines,

0:41:43.880 --> 0:41:47.880
<v Speaker 1>and my parents will see this, you know, parents of kids,

0:41:47.960 --> 0:41:50.360
<v Speaker 1>gay kids. It was more like the you were feeling

0:41:50.400 --> 0:41:53.560
<v Speaker 1>like I'm a part of the impact of like what.

0:41:53.760 --> 0:41:56.960
<v Speaker 1>I was happy to be associated with a show that

0:41:57.040 --> 0:42:09.080
<v Speaker 1>was doing things like this. That makes sense, That makes sense. Um,

0:42:09.120 --> 0:42:12.000
<v Speaker 1>all right, so's the time for Tardy Takes. Yeah, that's

0:42:12.080 --> 0:42:15.680
<v Speaker 1>that's that's the episode. That's what else. I again, one

0:42:15.680 --> 0:42:18.839
<v Speaker 1>of our favorites, and obviously should be yours because obviously

0:42:18.920 --> 0:42:21.080
<v Speaker 1>there's only two songs in it. It's there's a lot

0:42:21.120 --> 0:42:24.239
<v Speaker 1>that happens in it though, and um, you get to

0:42:24.280 --> 0:42:26.839
<v Speaker 1>see a lot of everyone. It's yeah, you do, It's nice,

0:42:26.920 --> 0:42:30.600
<v Speaker 1>it's nice Tardy Takes. All right. So the cringe moment

0:42:30.719 --> 0:42:34.839
<v Speaker 1>ak we're calling them ou cheese now, thanks Paris. These

0:42:34.840 --> 0:42:40.480
<v Speaker 1>are the auchies and things that are cringe e Um,

0:42:40.520 --> 0:42:44.080
<v Speaker 1>I think I have to steal paris Is one about

0:42:45.600 --> 0:42:48.880
<v Speaker 1>Mr shooting Mercedes. Don't worry, We'll find something for you

0:42:48.960 --> 0:42:52.440
<v Speaker 1>to dip in chocolate. Yeah that there's no just doesn't

0:42:52.520 --> 0:42:59.240
<v Speaker 1>there's no coming back, no, no, we should just yeah. Okay, um, jail,

0:42:59.640 --> 0:43:05.839
<v Speaker 1>So the worst dance move was unseen. I think this

0:43:05.920 --> 0:43:11.800
<v Speaker 1>is okay. Imagine the ramp and imagine Amber coming around

0:43:11.800 --> 0:43:17.680
<v Speaker 1>the corner, so clipping the side. So picture of the ramps,

0:43:17.800 --> 0:43:20.960
<v Speaker 1>the stage ramp thing weren't two sizes right, there was

0:43:21.000 --> 0:43:23.239
<v Speaker 1>the upper level. Did you come down to like a

0:43:23.280 --> 0:43:26.279
<v Speaker 1>middle level and then you go down to the actual stage.

0:43:26.800 --> 0:43:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Amber was on the middle level trying to make a

0:43:30.239 --> 0:43:34.480
<v Speaker 1>turn from the side down to the main ramp. She

0:43:34.560 --> 0:43:37.480
<v Speaker 1>didn't make it. She clipped it the side at the

0:43:37.480 --> 0:43:44.400
<v Speaker 1>corner and she went flat sideways and she fell wheel.

0:43:45.200 --> 0:43:50.239
<v Speaker 1>Her side wheel is turning still. It was. It wasn't

0:43:50.280 --> 0:43:54.000
<v Speaker 1>funny because she was so upset, but he was. It

0:43:54.120 --> 0:44:00.360
<v Speaker 1>was also just like it was slow because none of

0:44:00.400 --> 0:44:04.320
<v Speaker 1>us were moving quickly in those wheelchairs on those ramps. Exactly.

0:44:05.000 --> 0:44:07.440
<v Speaker 1>Oh god, too many people felt okay, so that was

0:44:08.320 --> 0:44:11.040
<v Speaker 1>Leah had a Leah took a tumble as well. I

0:44:11.120 --> 0:44:13.840
<v Speaker 1>think on the actual I think it was in the

0:44:13.840 --> 0:44:20.240
<v Speaker 1>actual day of film that she just felt she went down, Um,

0:44:20.440 --> 0:44:24.240
<v Speaker 1>the best song I have to vote dancing with myself,

0:44:26.160 --> 0:44:28.919
<v Speaker 1>I would I think I would say Brad Mary Wow,

0:44:29.160 --> 0:44:31.840
<v Speaker 1>I just loved that so much. Yeah, and also you

0:44:31.840 --> 0:44:36.840
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't pick your own song so well, okay, but that

0:44:36.880 --> 0:44:39.080
<v Speaker 1>was all sound great together. We did, we did, we

0:44:39.120 --> 0:44:43.799
<v Speaker 1>sounded good. Best performance by a prop obviously the wheelchairs

0:44:46.239 --> 0:44:52.480
<v Speaker 1>or maybe the flower uh. And then things that h

0:44:52.560 --> 0:44:55.480
<v Speaker 1>well and didn't edge well. Um. So there's a line

0:44:55.600 --> 0:44:59.799
<v Speaker 1>Kevin where Quinn says, they're not going to buy you know,

0:45:00.440 --> 0:45:03.319
<v Speaker 1>bake goods from losers were in a wheelchair and we're

0:45:03.320 --> 0:45:08.800
<v Speaker 1>in Cleveland, and I was like, oh gosh, okay, alright,

0:45:10.320 --> 0:45:13.320
<v Speaker 1>they had some of those some of you glee club

0:45:13.440 --> 0:45:17.200
<v Speaker 1>folk had some words about the wheelchairs that were simply

0:45:17.239 --> 0:45:21.800
<v Speaker 1>not okay, not great. Um. And then the best line,

0:45:21.880 --> 0:45:25.200
<v Speaker 1>what do you think? Oh man, I think there's a lot.

0:45:25.719 --> 0:45:28.560
<v Speaker 1>I do like the line of already talking to Rachel,

0:45:28.880 --> 0:45:30.640
<v Speaker 1>I do take your irritating was the time we don't

0:45:30.680 --> 0:45:35.600
<v Speaker 1>take that personally? Um, but I sort of. There's also

0:45:35.680 --> 0:45:38.919
<v Speaker 1>the incredible line I don't want to give all them away.

0:45:38.960 --> 0:45:40.839
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know what yours is, but I think

0:45:40.920 --> 0:45:46.839
<v Speaker 1>mine was the burnt line of you seem like a girl,

0:45:47.160 --> 0:45:49.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, in a good way. Look, I don't know

0:45:49.440 --> 0:45:52.000
<v Speaker 1>how this music stuff works. I'm pretty exclusively committed to

0:45:52.040 --> 0:45:55.239
<v Speaker 1>my Melochamp collection. But isn't there more crossover nowadays? You know,

0:45:55.320 --> 0:45:58.200
<v Speaker 1>chicks doing construction, guys wearing dress shoes and no socks,

0:45:59.560 --> 0:46:02.759
<v Speaker 1>I think that's my and Chris's reaction to that was

0:46:02.800 --> 0:46:08.279
<v Speaker 1>also yes, really good. Um, okay, what do you got

0:46:08.320 --> 0:46:10.560
<v Speaker 1>for me, Kevin? This is ship we found on TikTok

0:46:10.600 --> 0:46:16.520
<v Speaker 1>this week. Um, this one is hilarious and very random.

0:46:16.560 --> 0:46:22.319
<v Speaker 1>So Alive Raves on TikTok Um has Yeah, Jenn, are

0:46:22.320 --> 0:46:25.040
<v Speaker 1>you watching it now? A theory that Harry Styles was

0:46:25.120 --> 0:46:31.680
<v Speaker 1>mimicking the one and only Finn Hudson dance moves the

0:46:31.719 --> 0:46:34.719
<v Speaker 1>stomp and like the shoulder move. You see Harry doing

0:46:34.760 --> 0:46:40.600
<v Speaker 1>that and it looks very familiar. I don't know if

0:46:40.640 --> 0:46:45.040
<v Speaker 1>there's a world in which it's related. That's really funny,

0:46:45.280 --> 0:46:48.839
<v Speaker 1>but it's fun to think like a little sixteen year

0:46:48.840 --> 0:46:52.160
<v Speaker 1>old Harry Styles just stomping very you know, very much

0:46:52.200 --> 0:46:58.560
<v Speaker 1>like Corey would do very good. Maybe Harry was a fan.

0:46:58.680 --> 0:47:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Apparently he came up, you know, with the name One Direction.

0:47:02.880 --> 0:47:06.279
<v Speaker 1>Sounds like New Directions. I don't know though, But do

0:47:06.320 --> 0:47:12.080
<v Speaker 1>you remember Simon cal being a big Glee fan because

0:47:12.239 --> 0:47:15.160
<v Speaker 1>we so. I sort of knew Simon because I would

0:47:15.200 --> 0:47:18.000
<v Speaker 1>go see American Idol tapings and talk to him with

0:47:18.120 --> 0:47:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Rob Stringer, who was the he's the chairman of Sony Records. Um,

0:47:24.080 --> 0:47:27.080
<v Speaker 1>in Columbia who we were signed with the Glee and

0:47:27.800 --> 0:47:30.400
<v Speaker 1>he would talk about how much he loved Glee and

0:47:30.440 --> 0:47:33.440
<v Speaker 1>how um impactful he thought it was and how important

0:47:33.440 --> 0:47:37.400
<v Speaker 1>he thought it wasn't what how important the work was doing,

0:47:38.080 --> 0:47:41.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, showing these songs to new audiences and demographics.

0:47:41.719 --> 0:47:43.920
<v Speaker 1>And so then we performed on X Factor in the

0:47:44.000 --> 0:47:48.319
<v Speaker 1>UK and he'll see there's pictures of us meeting one

0:47:48.320 --> 0:47:52.840
<v Speaker 1>direction back when they were on it, And I remember

0:47:54.000 --> 0:47:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Rob Stringer coming back and being like, and Ryan Dreg

0:47:57.280 --> 0:48:02.799
<v Speaker 1>why not Ryan Dante being like, why this Simon? Why

0:48:02.840 --> 0:48:05.520
<v Speaker 1>is Simon obsessed with you? It's like, he's not obsessed

0:48:05.520 --> 0:48:08.000
<v Speaker 1>with me. I know he's obsessed with Artie because he thinks,

0:48:08.440 --> 0:48:11.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, showing a kid who was in a wheelchair, um,

0:48:12.440 --> 0:48:15.359
<v Speaker 1>given the power of the music and the Glee Club

0:48:15.360 --> 0:48:19.200
<v Speaker 1>of being supported like that, that to him encapsulated what

0:48:19.480 --> 0:48:22.359
<v Speaker 1>was important about Glee, of showing the underdogs of people

0:48:22.360 --> 0:48:25.920
<v Speaker 1>who normally wouldn't get to be on network television and

0:48:26.000 --> 0:48:28.200
<v Speaker 1>seen by millions of people, and those stories being seen.

0:48:28.360 --> 0:48:30.280
<v Speaker 1>And so I really thought he was he was always

0:48:30.360 --> 0:48:34.200
<v Speaker 1>very supportive of the show. He was and I don't know,

0:48:34.480 --> 0:48:37.880
<v Speaker 1>maybe Harry Styles was a fan and he was poppy.

0:48:37.960 --> 0:48:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Finn Hudson's moves named after new directions. Who knows funny. Um,

0:48:46.200 --> 0:48:49.839
<v Speaker 1>well that's all we got for you. That's it. That's it,
