But I don't 33 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: think she wrote it, but she brought it to them. 34 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: She brought it to them, right, Yeah, it was like 35 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: a song she was doing. 36 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 2: Let me send her a voice note. 37 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: There's like a lot of controversy around colorblind also. 38 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 2: Is there like on Reddit? Were you on the Reddit 39 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:16,679 Speaker 2: reading the color Blind? 40 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: I girdled it and like because I was trying to 41 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: remember if she had written it or like, because I 42 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: knew it was like her song. I knew there was 43 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,959 Speaker 1: like some version, but it's a little like there she's 44 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 1: singing Colorblind to her white boyfriend, like it's that whole thing, 45 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: and I I can see what they're saying, Like he 46 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: was the one who was like engaging in like Mi 47 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: Greg rassion is the whole episode. 48 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 2: And so like I mean, Sam was out of control. 49 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and so then they were like people were like 50 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: shock that she was singing a song called Colorblind. 51 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: What it looked like is that they backed into the 52 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 2: storyline from Amber bringing them the song, and that was 53 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 2: like the way that they chose to write it in 54 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 2: got it. But yeah, then it presents a whole lot 55 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 2: of questionable things for sure. 56 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: Also, by the way, Captain America the Winter Soldier at 57 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: number one, I've seen that over one hundred times and 58 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: I watch it on the regular. 59 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 2: You love it, I love it, all said love it. 60 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: Our friend Sebastian's in it, of course, which is like, 61 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 1: you know, applause. But the movie itself is great. It's 62 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 1: one of the best Avenger films they have in Marvel World. 63 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 2: I completely agree, if not the best. I also think, 64 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 2: you know, we mentioned Hot Texas Glenn Powell before and 65 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 2: like seeing him become a movie star, but Sebastian Stan 66 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 2: actually was the first one. You were much closer with 67 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 2: Sebastian than I ever was, but he was around and. 68 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: Now he's like nominated for an Oscar nominated for it. 69 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: It's crazy. It's crazy watching all these people. He's unbelievable. 70 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,839 Speaker 1: Captain America's Civil War two top of my list. 71 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 2: Anyway, Oh maybe that's my favorite. 72 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: Actually, Civil Wars excellent. Really big Marvel fans were here. 73 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: It was also announced that Charley McLain would be joining 74 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: the show for several episodes as a New York socialite 75 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: intent on making Blaine into a star. 76 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: Which was a crazy experience. Yeah. That same week, it 77 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 2: was announced that the fifth season was reduced to twenty 78 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,919 Speaker 2: episodes instead of twenty two due to the production hiatus 79 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 2: at the start of the season.

It's Leah's hundredth episode appearance. Hello, 94 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 2: I mean as the leader of the show. Basically, she 95 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 2: finally did it. I don't even remember her not being 96 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 2: in episodes. 97 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: There were uh two, I know. 98 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's like no Glee without Rachel. 99 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 1: It's weird, right, it's weird without her. But I think 100 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: there's one episode that we had recently that was just 101 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: all McKinley.

This 102 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: isn't an unofficial Stephen Soundheim episode featuring many of his songs. 103 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: It's unofficial. It should have just been official. We should 104 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: have just like done it because like I'm a huge 105 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: Steven Soundheim fan. We didn't do Stephen Sondheim. Like we 106 00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: did a little bit of Stephen Seim, but we didn't 107 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: really Stephen Sondheim. No, and they absolutely should have. Could 108 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: you imagine that would have been stacked? That would have 109 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: been two episodes. If I wasn't in that in any 110 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: of those I would have been, there would have been flames. Yeah, fury, 111 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 1: fury to the end to degree. Steven same is the 112 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 1: person that I would have dinner with.

Everybody knows in the 175 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: theater world, if you're in tech, you're not getting out. 176 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: But somehow she manages to get the producer to say 177 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: yes to letting her go to do her Midwinter critique, 178 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: which I will say to start, I was like, oh, 179 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: she's still in school, Like, good for her, but also, 180 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: if you are in a school to be a star 181 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 1: on Broadway and then you're just become a star on Broadway. 182 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 2: Like defer, yeah, why are you going to school for 183 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 2: the thing you're already doing? You're good. Yeah, So her 184 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: point is valid because she does bring that up though, right, yes, 185 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 2: that's true. 186 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: A lot of people would be like, oh, you know, 187 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: it's good to get your degree and finish. But like, 188 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: nobody we know goes to school for theater except for 189 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: me for college, you know what I mean. 190 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 2: The thing is with her, her whole point is, yeah, 191 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 2: she does manage to get out. She does a performance, 192 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 2: and then Thibodeau's like, no, that was a duet. You're 193 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 2: supposed to do a solo, and she's going to fail them. 194 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 2: It's like, okay, now i'll give you a second chance, 195 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 2: you can redo it. But of course it was already 196 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 2: pain in the ass to get out in the first place, 197 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 2: to do that one performance for Thibodeau. And so as 198 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 2: much as we want to give Rachel shit for being 199 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: you know, a little crazy, sometimes especially lately, she's really 200 00:10:55,080 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 2: feeling herself. I think her point stands here, like you 201 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 2: just said, where she decides that she doesn't need me 202 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 2: at it and she's going to quit. Correct because Thibodeau 203 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 2: is not working with her. I can't come back and 204 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 2: do this. I didn't have time. We're in tech and 205 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 2: so I feel like, you know, the initial reaction for 206 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 2: some maybe like oh, there's Rachel being Rachel again, like, well, no, 207 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 2: actually she does have a point. 208 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: No, she does have a point. 209 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 2: I are you explaining to people who don't know what 210 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,559 Speaker 2: tech is? What tech is? 211 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: Okay? So you go into rehearsal spur a show, right, Kevin. 212 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: Rehearse for a show in a studio, usually they draw 213 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: out like fake lines for the state measurements of the 214 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: stage and your numbers so that you know where you 215 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 1: are on the stage. And then you get into the 216 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: theater and before you can run the show in the theater, 217 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: on the stage, they have to teck it. That means 218 00:11:53,040 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: that everybody comes together, sound lights, director, staging. It's just 219 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: all the actors and it is laborious. It is so slow. 220 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 1: You are there for hours. You just bring like bring 221 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: bring something to knit. Yeah, sit backstage and just be 222 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: know what you're in for. And and basically you go 223 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: like mark to mark, scene to scene, spot to spot 224 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: to make sure that everything is in its place. You're 225 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: lick correctly, your your sound is correct, you're in the 226 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: right place. It feels good the whole thing. 227 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 2: So it's for every department, So like lighting those where 228 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 2: they're supposed to be, and sound knows where they're supposed 229 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 2: to be, hitting in certain songs, all of that, yes. 230 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: And ever so that everybody's in sync when you start 231 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: to run the show. So it is, and it's necessary 232 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: for everybody to be there. It's not like, oh, you 233 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 1: get a stand in. 234 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 2: How long does a show normally when they're putting up 235 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 2: a show, how long does tech normally last? 236 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: Like two days? 237 00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 2: Okay? So okay, so it's. 238 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 1: Not yeah, no, no, no, it's like two days. Like 239 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: everybody like does their prep work right, and then you 240 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: get in and like and then everybody adjusts. 241 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 2: It's just a long two days. 242 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: How long was your chech for smelling babe? Like a day? 243 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 2: Yeah? 244 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: Okay, so that seems right. 245 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like two half days basically. 246 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: Rachel performed. Well, first, let's talk about this. Because they perform, 247 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: they're super excited about doing this Winter critique, and Blaine 248 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: and Rachel decide to do a duet. They do Broadway Baby. 249 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: Why we had to do Broadway Baby was it supposed 250 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: to be like not the best, not in terms of 251 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: like their performance, like obviously Lea Darren sound great, and 252 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: like they look great. 253 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 2: They do look better than ever. 254 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: Right, But the song itself, to me is like that's 255 00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: the song you're gonna pick all the time songs. 256 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 2: It seems like they should know better, yes, right, the 257 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 2: characters should know better because they're like theater geeks like 258 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 2: they yeah. 259 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a weird song choice. 260 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 2: I also have a question logistically, wouldn't Blaine and Rachel 261 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 2: be in different years? 262 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 1: None of that matters, okay, I mean they're performing in 263 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: a concert hall with lighting and a piano, like with 264 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: cabaret tables, So that's true. Is like I'm like, okay, 265 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: that's what college looks like. 266 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 2: I'm also this new version of Glee they are. The 267 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 2: production is very different because how little is actually on 268 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: the stages now where the concert hall is a real 269 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 2: concert hall in downtown LA. We're using some downtown LA 270 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 2: for exteriors or using a lot of actual New York 271 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 2: for exteriors. The production is very different. 272 00:14:58,960 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: That's right. 273 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 2: A lot on the go, yeah, a lot on the goal. 274 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 2: But anyway, I really enjoyed watching them perform totally. 275 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: I just was like, why is it both follies when 276 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: Steven Sonheim has a hundred other shows, right, but that 277 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 1: we do two songs from Follies. Anyway, Okay, I've said 278 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 1: my piece on that. Moving on, I guess the whole 279 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: thing is that Rachel, like Carmen's like, look, you have 280 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: to show up or you're going to fail. You have 281 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: to do your you have to reschedule, or I'm going 282 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: to fail you. Which, to be fair, this was my life. 283 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: I was working and doing this show called Yankees on 284 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: Deck at the time for the Yankees Network, the s Network, 285 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 1: and I was performing. I was doing that on the 286 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: weekends and during the week I had to travel a 287 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 1: little bit and then I would go back to school 288 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: and a lot of these classes are performance based. You 289 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: can't just sit in a lecture hall take notes. Somebody 290 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: can photocopy them for you. Well, on exam, like, you 291 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: have to be there. And I was at the risk 292 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: of failing, like a couple of times they were like, 293 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to fail you if you don't show up, 294 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: and I was like, WHOA. 295 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 2: How did you manage to because you also graduated in 296 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 2: three years? 297 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a whole other thing. But I managed 298 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: to somehow show up enough for class for the rest 299 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 1: of the year, and then I took extra courses outside 300 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: of school though, like the liberal arts courses that I 301 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: had to take, math and you know, ridiculous psychology like 302 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 1: psych one oh one. I took all those online. They 303 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: were like courses available, so I was able to like 304 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: take multiple credits, yes exactly. But she quits and I 305 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: don't blame her. I actually don't blame her. Now there's 306 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: like it's like a cliffhanger because like, obviously her whole 307 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: life has been revolving around getting into Nyada, going to Nyada, 308 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden she's like. 309 00:16:59,440 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 2: See it. 310 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 1: But I don't blame her. I was, but of course 311 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: it's a TV show. 312 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 2: So I was thinking about that a lot, because how 313 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 2: often when you get these opportunities, you don't know when 314 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 2: they're going to come. And like, how her, like you said, 315 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 2: her storyline has just been so wrapped around getting to 316 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 2: New York and getting into Niyada when she discovered Niada existed, right, 317 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 2: And it seems crazy to just sort of on the surface, 318 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 2: it feels crazy to just get rid of it all 319 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 2: of a sudden, like, oh, she's just quitting. It feels 320 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 2: like she just got there once. She's been there for 321 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 2: a hot minute. Two she got the dream role, right, 322 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 2: she's already doing it right. 323 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 1: That's the thing. 324 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 2: These things happened. I was signed up for a full 325 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 2: semester of college courses. I only found this out during 326 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 2: the pandemic because I decided to take some classes again. 327 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 2: But I didn't drop any of them. And did you 328 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 2: just fail them? F's for an entire semester of full 329 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 2: course load because I got glee and so I was 330 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 2: just like, wow, I don't even remember. I was so 331 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 2: stoked that I have zero memory of ever signing up 332 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:14,119 Speaker 2: for these classes. 333 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: That's really funny. 334 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, like what yeah, I got my script. I was like, 335 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 2: what do you so? 336 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: Like? 337 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 2: These things do happen? I was a year out of 338 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 2: high school and yeah, I had plans to go to 339 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 2: college but. 340 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: Whoops, whoopsies you know, yeah, no for sure.

Young 578 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 1: Kurt and everybody took it very seriously. 579 00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 2: And Rachel is coming in on a very different wavelength 580 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 2: than Kurt is, because Rachel's coming off this like riding 581 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 2: high of like I quit, I made this crazy big decision, 582 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 2: but like here I am. And she's just like a rocket, 583 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 2: just like shooting off. And she meets up with Kurt 584 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 2: and Kurt gives her a bunch of flag for it. Basically, 585 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 2: he confronts her about quitting YadA and they get into 586 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 2: this fight and Rachel's like, you're afraid to take risks 587 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 2: and grow up? I'm growing up and she storms out. 588 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 2: That's it very Rachel, Barry and Kurt's left alone and 589 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 2: on his way out, you know, he's still shaken from 590 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 2: their friends and neighbor getting beat up that he sees 591 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 2: someone getting beat up in the alley and he runs 592 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 2: into it to confront them, helps the guy get away, 593 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 2: and then he ends up getting beaten up. Very brave 594 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 2: of Kurt, yes, which again you know, here are people 595 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 2: adapting to the big city again where he would have 596 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 2: done this in Ohio all day. I mean, think about 597 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 2: the experiences he's been through. This is not something he's 598 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 2: necessarily afraid of, right, right, And so he runs towards 599 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 2: the fire. 600 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: Basically, which Bert's like, why didn't you just call the cops. 601 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:26,320 Speaker 2: You don't have time to call the cops. 602 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 1: You don't have time to call the cops, and the 603 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: cops probably wouldn't come anyway. 604 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 2: But but we had a Burton Curt scene, So a 605 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 2: beautiful Burton curtsyne I know. 606 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:41,320 Speaker 1: Okay, so this create ends up in the hospital, everybody, 607 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: all these different shots of people, all all of you 608 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: guys finding out about Kurt is also really well done. 609 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: Like if this were if I didn't know better, this 610 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 1: would have been like an Alfonso episode to me, totally 611 00:34:55,760 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: also Beaker so good they that was really powerful, and 612 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: then seeing Kurt in the hospital, it was really emotional. 613 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: And I hadn't expected that. I didn't expect that. It 614 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:19,919 Speaker 1: also feels like what's going on in the world, which 615 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 1: I won't get too far into but is important is 616 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,359 Speaker 1: it felt very timely and I cannot believe we're still here. 617 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 2: I mean, we're here in a hard way, like we've 618 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 2: really come crashing back. 619 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 1: M hmmm, actually farther backwards. So it's just terrifying. But yeah, 620 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 1: I think the emotion was like with what's happening. It 621 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:52,399 Speaker 1: feels too relevant too, and also just devastating. 622 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 2: It reminded me how quickly these things can spin out 623 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 2: of control. Yeah, because it's like one thing leads to 624 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 2: another and you start to see patterns good or bad. 625 00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 2: They usually gain momentum in whatever direction they're heading. And 626 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 2: it's like it reminded me of when these things were 627 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 2: more common and when you see them than other people 628 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 2: get the idea to do it and they feel more 629 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: comfortable doing it. And what scares me now is that 630 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:20,760 Speaker 2: happening again and it seems like everything is just turned 631 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 2: up and like what that could mean for vulnerable communities. 632 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 2: But yeah, it made me think of that as well. 633 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, especially when he's like, I mean, this 634 00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 1: is New York. I just didn't think this would happen here. 635 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think it's about New York. It is, 636 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 2: and you can I mean, you've lived there, you're from there, 637 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 2: you can tell me if I'm wrong. There's also this, 638 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 2: I know, I don't want to get too into the 639 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 2: weeds here about it, but New York is the biggest 640 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 2: city in the country, so you have more of everything. Yeah, 641 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 2: for sure, there's more good and there's more bad because 642 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 2: there's just more of it. Yeah, don't really the good 643 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 2: outweighs the bad generally. Yeah, but because they's just a 644 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 2: bigger volume of people, these things are going to happen 645 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 2: because everybody is forced to come together. That's the beauty 646 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 2: of it. Where you, like Bert says, you wouldn't think 647 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 2: this would happen because everybody is around a lot of 648 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 2: different types of people. And again, generally that is the sense. 649 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 2: But yeah, you get a few cases like this and 650 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,479 Speaker 2: then all of a sudden people think the whole place 651 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 2: is unsafe. 652 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:30,879 Speaker 1: That's not right. 653 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 2: That's what happens. 654 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, And the way Kurt handles is also like pretty 655 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 1: it's interesting. He's like, I'm not even that upset about it. 656 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 1: He's like, you know, I just think he's Kurt has 657 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: seen a lot like Chris like, and it's really brave 658 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 1: the way he responds this. And I don't know, I 659 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 1: just thought the whole thing was handled really well. And 660 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: that scene with Burt and Kurt like fathered a son 661 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 1: was so impactful. 662 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 2: To see the evolution of where they've come from, because 663 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 2: I always think about like the single lady days, which 664 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 2: coming down the stairs and seeing and where they are 665 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 2: now they're talking like it's father and son, but it's 666 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 2: also like, yeah, like they are adults now, it's an adult 667 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,480 Speaker 2: to adult and they are the sum of their experiences 668 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 2: up to that point. So like, as a fan of 669 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 2: their characters, it does feel different. Yeah, definitely and earned 670 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 2: in that way, which is really nice. Definitely, And then 671 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:48,919 Speaker 2: Kurt sing's his Niyata song and we get a beautiful 672 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 2: I'm still here. This is the one that I was 673 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 2: talking about. 674 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:57,800 Speaker 1: It's so funny because like everybody's there for his winter 675 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 1: like critique.

That's that's the thing. 694 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 2: And it's a really heavy episode. But it doesn't feel 695 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,879 Speaker 2: too much. No, it doesn't feel like too much. It's 696 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:19,840 Speaker 2: really well balanced. 697 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 1: I agree. 698 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,439 Speaker 2: And yeah, New York's got to groove to it, doesn't it? 699 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: It does, and I am I'm into it.

I will say that the scenes m VY. 745 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: There's two m VP scenes for me, which is the 746 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 1: Burton Kurt scene and the Cord and Mercedes scene. And 747 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:37,799 Speaker 1: I think that I think Chord gets it because that 748 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 1: is a really hard thing to do. Like you said, 749 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: without being like his character is starting to feel become 750 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: a villain, right like like you you want to hate 751 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 1: them because of it, and you still don't. And somehow 752 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 1: he managed to make this, he still managed to not 753 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: make that who he was, but like something that he 754 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: can learn from and a choice of that he made, 755 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:07,839 Speaker 1: you know, And I I really I thought he did 756 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: it so well. 757 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 2: I would like to point out another scene. And I think, 758 00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 2: because they're both so good, we might take it for granted. 759 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 2: Lee and Chris, Leah and Chris and Leah and Whoopie. 760 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:29,720 Speaker 2: She's going up against Whoopie.
