I 46 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: guess it's kind. 47 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 2: Of I didn't either, but I guess. 48 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 3: So. You know, her other show, The Secret Lives of 49 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 3: Mormon Wives, is the number one show on Hulu, thus 50 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 3: being the number one show on ABC. And you know, 51 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,839 Speaker 3: which is the same world as Dancing with the Stars, right, 52 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 3: So because it's on Hulu, it's all in the Disney family. 53 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 3: So I'm sure there's people there that thought that Disney 54 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 3: and ABC obviously wanted her to go as far as possible. 55 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 3: But I guess something came out where she said she 56 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 3: didn't want to do the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives anymore. 57 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 3: She would only do that if she got a chance 58 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,519 Speaker 3: to do Dancing with the Stars. Like they said to her, well, 59 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 3: if you do another season of the show, we'll let 60 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 3: you do Dancing with the Stars, or you have a 61 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 3: better shot at doing Dance with the Stars something. 62 00:02:58,440 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 2: It was intertwined. 63 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 3: So because of that, she went on to do another 64 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 3: season of the show, and I guess she's getting. 65 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: Kind of roasted for that. I don't know what it. 66 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 3: Was, but again, this is all stuff we don't know about, 67 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 3: so it's just part of the world we're not familiar with. 68 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 2: It's clearly not the best dancer wins the show. 69 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 3: That's clearly not with Dancing with the Stars is no no, 70 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 3: So I. 71 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 2: Just yeah, then you're fine. 72 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: That's the bottom line is that Andy Sticks are around 73 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: way longer than he probably should have in terms of 74 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: just dancing skill and Whitney, who I thought dancer. 75 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 2: Basically a professional dancer. 76 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 3: She didn't have a bad performance that I can remember 77 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 3: throughout the entire show where you're like, eh, right. 78 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: And and she's gone and doesn't make the final, so 79 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 2: you just, well. 80 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: I didn't expect it. I was surprised. Me too, So 81 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: I'm still feeling a little like, wow, Okay, well shuck. 82 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: I also love everybody who made it through, so yeah, 83 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: me too. You know, I have no reason to dislike Whitney, 84 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: I guess, but so I guess I would have been 85 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: happy no matter what, because I like all these people. 86 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 1: They're all good dancers. 87 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, but again, it took a turn for us when 88 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 3: Danielle wasn't on the show anymore. Right, it kind of 89 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 3: becomes you know, the person you're really rooting for isn't there, 90 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 3: So then you kind of go like, okay, now I'm 91 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 3: just kind of watching the show and I'm enjoying it. 92 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: And it was. 93 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: Dramatic, huge, it was huge TV. 94 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, very much. 95 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 1: So all right, our opening number was an homage to Prince. 96 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 3: I'd like to say, musically, by far, my favorite episode ever. 97 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: Okay, complete opposite. Okay, will be complete opposite. Okay. So 98 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: I was watching this opening number, not really cluing in 99 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: that it was Prince Night or whatever, and I was like, 100 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: I just I just don't like this, you know. I 101 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: was that it was just like I don't know the 102 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,119 Speaker 1: style of it. The everything was just like this is fine, 103 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: everyone's dancing. Well, I just don't care. And then I 104 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: was like, oh, it's Prince. 105 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 2: And you're not a Prince fan. 106 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing. I always thought that Prince was 107 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: just this gap in my musical knowledge, like I don't know. 108 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: I didn't think I knew many Prince songs. I don't 109 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 1: listen to Prince. I've never been into Prince. I don't 110 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: know anything about it. And I always knew that was 111 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 1: just like a blind spot in my musical world. I 112 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: have a lot of them, to be fair, most people do. 113 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: I'm very limited. I just don't, you know. I don't 114 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: expose myself to the radio that much. I don't listen 115 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: to popular music, so I'm usually out of it. And 116 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: I always knew Prince as this like looming, towering figure 117 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: that I should someday give attention to. And then when 118 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: they did the like Prince round Up where they showed 119 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: his montage of his whole career. I was like, yeah, 120 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: I don't I don't like this. I'm like everything he wears, yeah, 121 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: his style. I was just like, yeah, not for me. 122 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: And then the music itself, I'm like, yeah, I know 123 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: that song. Oh, I know that song too. I don't 124 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: know I really like any of these. 125 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 2: Prince was Lenny Kravitz before Len Kravitz. Prince is the guy. 126 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 2: I also, oh Man. 127 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 3: Put them the two coolest men who have ever arguably 128 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 3: walked the pret Just put them in a feather boa 129 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 3: and stretch purple pants that have shark teeth on him 130 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 3: and they pull it off, like yeah, love it, love it, 131 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 3: and show me. I'm not a style guy, but I 132 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 3: love I found Prince like in my early forties because 133 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 3: everyone was like, dude, you love music and you've never 134 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 3: found Prince. 135 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: And I was the same way. 136 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 3: I was like, I'm not I don't need to listen 137 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 3: to Prince, Like I got enough going on. And then 138 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 3: I started to kind of deep dive Princes and it 139 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 3: was like, holy. 140 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 1: Oh, so you had the exact opposite of me. 141 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: Exactly, okay, exactly, I mean made amazing music.

I feel like tonight was a deep dive 176 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: into britt Slam for me, and I came. 177 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 2: You were swimming for the surface. You were deep diving 178 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 2: and swam for the service totally. So I love the music. 179 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 2: I really music, all right. 180 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: So first up Elaine and Alan uh I thought this 181 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: was pretty great. 182 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 3: I did too, But I have a question. Have we 183 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 3: asked anybody how they pick who goes first? Because this 184 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 3: is the second week in a row she's had to 185 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 3: dance first. 186 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: That's not true. Robert went first, didn't he No? 187 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 2: I thought, what tonight? 188 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: None went first? Last week? 189 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 2: I thought Elaine went first? Again? Didn't she go first 190 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 2: last week? 191 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: Interesting? 192 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: Well yeah she almost Sarah said, yeah. 193 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: She did. Okay, Well this week it almost doesn't matter 194 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 1: because they all got to dance a second danced. 195 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 3: About the whole start in the first position, and she's 196 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 3: now gone twice. 197 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but I agree. 198 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 3: I thought it was. I thought it was decent. It 199 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 3: wasn't my favorite, but it started strong. 200 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: I thought she brought a like a slinky quality that 201 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 1: she hasn't before that I thought was really good. She 202 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: had like nice attitude without being cheesy, you know, like, 203 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: all right, you're bringing some attitude. Obviously, she brought it 204 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: way more for her second dance. 205 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 3: Second dance was no, it was. She also looked great tonight. 206 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 3: Both of the dresses she was wearing, we were pretty great. 207 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: And even before the second dance, I was like, oh, 208 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: Eline has brought it tonight in a way that I 209 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: don't think she has before. 210 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 2: And she was. 211 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: I could see it right and the yeah, she was 212 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: really in it, and I was. I thought she brought 213 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: a new attitude and a new way of moving her 214 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: body to this dance. I was like, oh, wow, she's 215 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 1: come to like really dance and yeah, so I thought 216 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: it was great. She got nines across the board, which 217 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: seemed totally fair. Yeah, I agree a good start. 218 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 3: Wasn't tens, but yeah, kind of changing my tune a 219 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 3: little bit on her just this week. I've had my 220 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 3: problems with Lane obviously, but I thought she did really 221 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 3: well this week, like really well, and you could tell 222 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 3: she was focused and kind of ready to go. 223 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. 224 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: Next up where Alex and Val too? 225 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 2: Man, just can't they? 226 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: God? 227 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 3: I think with Whitney out of the way, I still 228 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 3: don't think that I stand by what I say. 229 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: No one's gonna beat Robert, No one's but. 230 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: It's going to be a tight competition. 231 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 2: Close. She could really close. 232 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 1: You know. It's funny. I wasn't convinced that the song 233 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 1: and the dance went well together because you know, this 234 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: is the song felt kind of like a joyful release 235 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 1: and this this dance is like a little bit more 236 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: about control or like maybe even resisting control in a way. 237 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: Like it just felt like a little mismatch to me. Yeah, 238 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: that was my only like, but it was still so 239 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: well done. It was like great, of course, yes, this 240 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,239 Speaker 1: is gonna get nines and tens which. 241 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 3: It And she also that I I you know, apparently, 242 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 3: so one of the things we're learning as we're learning 243 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 3: these dances is a lot of these dances are really 244 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 3: there to highlight the woman. So it's like the how 245 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 3: did Danielle say it to us one time? She's like, 246 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 3: the man is the frame and the woman is the painting. 247 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 3: So it's like it's kind of that's what it's highlighting. 248 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 3: And her in that red dress was stunning. I mean 249 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 3: it's just everything about that visual how long and lean 250 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 3: she was when he like leans her over at the 251 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 3: end and the slit up the side, I mean it 252 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 3: was the whole look was pretty remarkable for this dance. 253 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, she's such a good dancer. I mean she is insane. 254 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 2: She is. 255 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 3: All right. 256 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:42,599 Speaker 1: Next up Whitney and Mark. I you know, contrary to 257 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: the fact that she got kicked off this week, I 258 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: thought that this was some of her best solo work. Yeah, 259 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: you know, like it really hasn't had a bad dance no, 260 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: and this was a chance for them to do some 261 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: side by side. I don't know something about this. I 262 00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 1: was like, all right, Whitney's really like just I mean 263 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: into her own as a dancer. She it's like, what, 264 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: didn't feel dependent on him to the same degree that 265 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: I felt like, you know, they've always been great, but 266 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: this was like a chance. I don't know. I was like, man, 267 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: she's killing it. And I think the scores reflected that 268 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: even better than Alex in some ways with their first dance. 269 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 2: I agree. Now, do you think by this point, I 270 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 2: guess you can't. You can't dissect the two. 271 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 3: Because there she has this whole other persona that I 272 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 3: guess is driving some of her voting when it comes 273 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 3: to her other reality show and her online persona, which 274 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 3: again we're not privy to at all. So do you 275 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 3: think the fact that people like us and a lot 276 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 3: of other people have kind of said she's a professional dancer. 277 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 2: Has hurt her as the the. 278 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 3: I mean, because again, if you look at her and 279 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 3: Alex now, it seems like they're kind of close to 280 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 3: the same level. And Alex isn't a professional dancer, right, 281 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 3: I mean. 282 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 2: She's like a well she I think, oh, it's the 283 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 2: same thing. I thought she was just like a makeup 284 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 2: influencer or something. 285 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, she's introduced more as a makeup and answer. 286 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: But I just assume if anybody's on TikTok and there's 287 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 1: they're dancing. 288 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 3: That's that's where we're wrong. That's where we don't know 289 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 3: anything about. To take away, I just assume it's food 290 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 3: to dance, right, It's have no idea what it is. 291 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: You're right, she does make up tutorials, right. 292 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 2: Yeah. 293 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 3: Ever, Alex never really danced on TikTok. Apparently it's what 294 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 3: it's says. So yeah, it seems like that to me, 295 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 3: seems more of the show. We've talked about that with Dylan, 296 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 3: who I did not think had a great night. But 297 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 3: we talked about that with Dylan, where you know, there's 298 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 3: something too you're not a dancer, now you're a dancer, 299 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 3: as opposed to you're a dancer and now you're a 300 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 3: slightly better dancer. 301 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 2: That's it's two different journeys. 302 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. 303 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, she got nine, ten and ten, so a little 304 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: little higher than Alex and Bow. And then we went 305 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: on to Dylan and Daniella your favorite. She's you know, 306 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: I'm still really rooting for both of them. 307 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 2: Me too, me too. 308 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: This one did not did not do it for me. 309 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 2: I felt like he was a little stiff tonight, like 310 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 2: he was a little off tonight. 311 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: The note I took was I could feel him gritting 312 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: his teeth a little bit. Yeah, I missed. 313 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 3: You know the word that I used when I was 314 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 3: watching it, deliberate. Yeah, it seemed there was no flow 315 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 3: to it. It seemed like he was in his head and 316 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 3: it was kind of one two three, what like he's 317 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 3: trying to keep up with it in his mind. But 318 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 3: she's I have to remind myself to watch him because she's. 319 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: So good, she's astounding. 320 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 321 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, I was, you know, I was glad 322 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: they came back out for another dance, but this was Yeah, 323 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, Dylan, come on, man, after last week, 324 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: you could bring it, you could do it.

I thought he was off a 346 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 2: little tonight. 347 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. Now I have a question for you, since we 348 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 3: are talking about it's clear that the best answer doesn't win. 349 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 3: And I imagine this is something that everybody who's ever 350 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 3: watched Dancing with the Stars. 351 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 2: Ever knew, and we just didn't that. 352 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 3: It's not like if you if you expect the best 353 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 3: dnswer to win, you're gonna be disappointed a lot of 354 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 3: the time. Do you think Whitney had lost before she 355 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 3: even stepped foot on the dance floor tonight? 356 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: Yeah? 357 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of feel the same way. 358 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: They were. 359 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 2: They just that was it. She was just she was 360 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 2: done already. 361 00:15:56,160 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: No, you know what if Elaine hadn't blown everybody away, 362 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: especially with their second dance, I think she could have 363 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: been eliminated. I think danced her way into the finale tonight, 364 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: but it was on the bubble coming in. 365 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 3: I don't know how it works, but I feel like 366 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 3: with whatever was going on in the internet, it was 367 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 3: like she's done before she ever had a chance. 368 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: But see, this is why the show is so well produced, 369 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: right because because if it was just about who's the 370 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: best dancer, and the judges sort of had like robotic 371 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: answers of like technical stuff, but you know, but that 372 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: human element is still there, and the journey and the 373 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: narrative of the season, it still has a huge impact. 374 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: And that's those ups and downs. Man, in this elimination, 375 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: I have to. 376 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 2: It shocked me too. 377 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 3: But I have to tell you that I've expanded on 378 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 3: my idea from last week. Okay, remember I talked about 379 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 3: how a cool version of the show would be if 380 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 3: both were celebrities and. 381 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 2: They dance as a couple. 382 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 3: What it should be is that, but each week, one 383 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 3: of the two of that couple is kicked off and 384 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 3: has to then partner with somebody else, and so the 385 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 3: final comes down to two celebrities dancing together, but only 386 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 3: one of. 387 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 2: Them can win. 388 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: That's not bad. 389 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 2: I think it'd be cool. 390 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 3: And yeah, I just saw Running Man this week, so 391 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 3: I'm just trying to think of other ways to up 392 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 3: up the game. 393 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: And then they get killed. 394 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, you know, I'm just squid games with 395 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 2: the squid games, all right. 396 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 1: Next up Jordan and Ezra. And this is where I 397 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 1: was like, man, the jive just kind of sucks. 398 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 2: I agree, I don't like it. I don't like it, but. 399 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: We'll get to in our next dance. I was surprised. 400 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 2: So Derek. 401 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: Derek gave the feedback, you know, he gave really great feedback. 402 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: He was like, Jordan, I just feel like you're you're 403 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 1: missing some of the bite or I think he said punch, 404 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, like and I felt that. When he said that, 405 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, that's what it was. It was 406 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: she wasn't like hitting the landing into her her moves 407 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 1: as much. And this is when I started to get 408 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: worried because I love Jordans. I love Jordan and Ezra, 409 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 1: and I was like, oh no, it's not looking good 410 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 1: for them. So when it came down to the the 411 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,880 Speaker 1: bottom three, who aren't really even maybe the bottom three. 412 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 1: I was pretty convinced that Jordan was out, but I 413 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 1: thought this was a good dance. 414 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 2: Yeah. 415 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 3: I don't think it was one of her best or 416 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 3: her best, but it was good. I mean, I thought 417 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:19,919 Speaker 3: she was good tonight. 418 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 1: As an overall, everybody up their game for their second dance. 419 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: It seemed like, yes, if they got to choose which 420 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: one went first. I mean, I know that I'm so 421 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: confused with how what choices they have, but it seems 422 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 1: like they were all pretty strategic and like whatever they 423 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: thought was their best dance if they had the choice, 424 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: they put second. Because yeah, I. 425 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 3: Also have to imagine, though, like any other whether it's 426 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 3: the second half of a game or something like that, 427 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 3: you're also warmed up. Yeah, like you know you're I know, 428 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 3: I know you can warm up a bit beforehand, but 429 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,919 Speaker 3: once you've already danced in that first adrenaline rushes off. 430 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 3: I have to imagine that second dance you can kind 431 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 3: of sink into a little easier. 432 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: What are your how do you warm up your voice 433 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,360 Speaker 1: for cartoon work? What are your what are your vocal exercises? 434 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 2: I usually wake up and cough. 435 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 1: You don't do anything, No, really no red leather, yellow letter, 436 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 1: red leather, yellow leather of that. 437 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 2: In my entire life. 438 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 3: No, at least now I'm not waking up and smoking 439 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 3: half a pack of cigarettes. No, oh my god, I 440 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 3: exercised nothing with my voice. 441 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: That's that's actually pretty rare. Right in your street. 442 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 3: I've never been with a voiceover actor I've ever seen 443 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 3: warming up their voice next to me. 444 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 2: You just kind of sit down and you just go. 445 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 3: So, I mean maybe I think it's just again, it 446 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 3: also depends on what you're doing. Yeah, if you know, 447 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 3: when I were, I remember doing a Medal of Honor 448 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 3: video game where I had to scream at the top 449 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 3: of my lungs for sixteen straight sessions or. 450 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 2: Something like that, and it was that was because everything. 451 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 2: Don't forget there's gunfire going out, so. 452 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 3: You're just yelling the whole time. It's like you couldn't 453 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,120 Speaker 3: warm up for that. It was just your your your 454 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 3: throat is bleeding by the end of the so. 455 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 2: But no, but normally no, I don't.

So like 481 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: I feel like it had great big set pieces, still 482 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 1: was a jive technically wonderful. 483 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 3: There were some there were some different dances going around 484 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 3: that you could argue were dancing the night, but Dancer 485 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 3: of the Night Robert killed it. And we talked about 486 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 3: last week about him against Dylan, where it was like 487 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 3: Dylan stole it last week and he's as good as 488 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 3: they were in two different categories. Tonight, Robert absolutely crushed it. Yeah, 489 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 3: crushed it. 490 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 1: Did you notice that like nobody had sets? Yes, like 491 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: all of the the production design has just stripped down. 492 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: Now it's just that whole dance. I do too. I 493 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: love that, and it seems like everybody made the same choice. 494 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 1: It was like, no, no, no, Now it's just about the dancing. 495 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: We're not going to have any props, We're not going 496 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: to have any extra stuff. And I thought it was 497 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 1: really cool me too. 498 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, do you want to take a moment here or 499 00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,239 Speaker 3: towards the end to talk about the judging tonight and 500 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 3: what was actually going on with the judges. 501 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 1: The kind of missed all of it. I oh, because yeah, 502 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: we were texting while watching, so let's talk about it, 503 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 1: because I I you. 504 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 2: Can tell Derek was going at carry carry in. 505 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 3: I thought tonight, frankly, some of the stuff she did 506 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 3: made no sense whatsoever. How you look at Whitney and 507 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 3: you say this was the best dance you've ever done 508 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 3: and then give her a lower score than you've given 509 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 3: her before obviously makes no sense. That being said, I 510 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 3: thought a lot of She's like, we're going from the 511 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 3: semifinals to the finals. Our job is to judge. We 512 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 3: have to nitpick a little bit, and that's what I 513 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 3: thought she was doing. I didn't think it was horribly unfair. 514 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 3: I thought getting down in front of Elaine and bowing 515 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 3: to her was a bit much. 516 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: But I mean, she loves Elamb She's so obvious she does. 517 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 3: She's one of her Elaine, we're talking about it in 518 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 3: one of her faves. But the then Derek obviously was 519 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 3: like looking at her. She mentioned something about you missed 520 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 3: two different hops in ya. I forget who she was 521 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 3: talking to, but she said you missed two different hops 522 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 3: and Derek kind of looked at her looked. He was like, no, 523 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 3: she what the hell? And she's like, look, I saw 524 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 3: what I saw. And they were going at it. And 525 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 3: then apparently we have we have some insider knowledge of 526 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 3: some people that were there that apparently she was super 527 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,360 Speaker 3: pissed at the table and then when they cut back 528 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 3: to them and he's like, oh, bring it in, and 529 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:17,679 Speaker 3: he went to hug the. 530 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 2: Two of them. She was pissed. I mean, like you 531 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 2: could tell it was bad. 532 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 3: So there's a there's gonna be It's an interesting in 533 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 3: my head, they all drive to the show together, So 534 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:29,679 Speaker 3: in my head, that's going to be an interesting car 535 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,959 Speaker 3: ride home, the three of those judges sharing the Volvo 536 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 3: they drive. 537 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 1: You know, I wonder about this. So our friend of 538 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 1: the podcast Variety writer Emily Longretta, did an interview with 539 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: Carrie Anne that she sent to me and said we 540 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: should read before we recorded last week. And I did 541 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: read it, said it to me, what's up, bro, Thanks Emily. 542 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 1: You're not on social media. She sent it to me 543 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 1: through Instagram. But it was a really good interview and 544 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 1: they you know, they sort of covered the fact that 545 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: Carrie and gets a lot more crap than other judges. 546 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: And in the interview, you know, Carrie Ane was sort 547 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 1: of you know, connecting it to being a woman and 548 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: that she's in some ways harder on women dancers than 549 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: the guys are. And then unfortunately that kind of comes 550 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: back on her, which you know, it was. It was 551 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,919 Speaker 1: a good point. But I also think even beyond the 552 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 1: fact that she's female, I think that she does put 553 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 1: herself into a more serious position often, like by the 554 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 1: way she talks, you know. I feel like Derek and 555 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 1: Bruno have a much more sort of like, even when 556 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 1: they're critical, there's always this sort of like, but we're 557 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 1: all just having fun and it's all about positivity, where 558 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: she can come off a little more like I am 559 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: here to judge. This is my job, and I'm going 560 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: to take it seriously, and as a result, she kind 561 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,439 Speaker 1: of gets more blowback. You know. 562 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 3: I think if she did that though equally for everybody, 563 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 3: then most people might I won't say most people. 564 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 2: I wouldn't have that big a problem with it. 565 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 3: But when she's saying to people like Andy, who for 566 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,199 Speaker 3: some dances, let's be honest, we all liked him, but 567 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 3: was kind of sitting there in the middle and moving 568 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 3: his arms and moving his legs a little bit while 569 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 3: she danced around him and going like, oh my god, 570 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 3: your journey is amazing, and Daniell's flipping all over the 571 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,919 Speaker 3: stage and she's like, well, you're really not holding your 572 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 3: shoulders back. 573 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 2: It didn't come off as equal judgment. 574 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 3: So it's one of those things apparently, because again we've 575 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,479 Speaker 3: talked about this now we've been deep diving it a bit, 576 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 3: or I've been deep diving it a bit. Everyone seems 577 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,360 Speaker 3: to say that from the beginning, Well, yes, she does 578 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 3: put herself in that more serious kind of category. She 579 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 3: also definitely has her favorites. Yeah, and when she picks 580 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,719 Speaker 3: her favorites, they're her favorites, and when anybody else comes up, 581 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 3: she judges them as opposed to praising the people that 582 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 3: are her favorites. So again, I would say, at least 583 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 3: from the two guys that I've seen, and I'm sure 584 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 3: she does get for being a woman and putting herself 585 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 3: out there, and don't doubt that at all, but the 586 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 3: guys seem to be consistently consistent with everybody, whereas she 587 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 3: seems to kind kind of again, I'm going to say 588 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 3: this to this person, but this to this person, and 589 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 3: this to this and again the good example is tonight, 590 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 3: I mean looking at Whitney and going, this is. 591 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 2: The best dance you have ever done? Here nine? 592 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 3: It's like, but you gave her a ten last week, 593 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 3: so how can you say this is the best she's 594 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 3: ever done and give her a nine? 595 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 2: It just a lot of seeds, some. 596 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: Of that flave of flave consistency. 597 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I just yes, I don't know if you heard. 598 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 3: I read it yesterday. He just found his paddle. 599 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 2: Uh so congratulations, he was just told he was there. 600 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,680 Speaker 1: He just found up that he did dance with the stars. 601 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 3: So yeah, no, again, I can see and I look 602 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 3: back on some of the stuff you and I said 603 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 3: about her, and we got some pressed about it, and 604 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 3: maybe we're a little harsh, but again, it's like I 605 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 3: become a big brother when I see what you're doing 606 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 3: to a friend of mine. But again, I just don't 607 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 3: think she's overly consistent, and I think there's there's drama 608 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 3: going on. I mean, if you could go back when 609 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 3: it goes on Hulu and you can watch again, just 610 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 3: watch when Derek grabs her and grabs him and. 611 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 2: Pulls him into a hug. She is livid, like livid. 612 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,360 Speaker 2: So yeah, super super interesting week. 613 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 3: It'll it se because that's going to make depressed, and 614 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 3: obviously it absolutely will. 615 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 2: So I see what happens. 616 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like I've gone through a full journey 617 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: with carry Anne because now I really kind of like her, 618 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: appreciate it. I know, I know, but I'm saying, like, 619 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,439 Speaker 1: I know what you're saying about inconsistency, and that's you know, 620 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: a problem sort of across the board with this whole system. 621 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: Is like I, like I said a couple of episodes ago, 622 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,880 Speaker 1: I would love it if they stated their intentions at 623 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: the beginning of the season, like this is what I 624 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: care about, and this is what I'm going to be 625 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: looking for and and sort of we could then judge them, 626 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,479 Speaker 1: judge their judging right, holding it to whatever standard they 627 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 1: set out to. But I like that she takes it 628 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: so seriously. I really do do in a way that 629 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: as much as I know Derek and Bruno are obviously 630 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:01,360 Speaker 1: just as knowledgeable and have justice, like have their opinions, 631 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 1: their presentation is a little more light and a little 632 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: less like, you know, just intense and severe. And I 633 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 1: actually kind of or I'm not intense and severe, just 634 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: like maybe rigorous or there's something about her presentation that 635 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 1: is just it's a different mode and I actually kind 636 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: of appreciate it now, So I've gone full circle. 637 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,400 Speaker 3: That's great now Again, I don't dislike her. I don't 638 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 3: think she's particularly consistent. Yeah, and I wonder I still 639 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 3: want to know, because I don't think we've gotten a 640 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 3: sufficient answer. People have told us a quote unquote answer, 641 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 3: but I don't believe it. Frankly, I just don't how 642 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 3: much sway the judges' scores hold as opposed to the 643 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 3: popular vote, because that's what they say, but I don't. 644 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 2: I'm not sure I buy that. 645 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 3: So it's one of those things where you wonder if 646 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 3: if they're kind of. 647 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 2: Like, hey, we're here to go. You were great, but 648 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 2: maybe hold your. 649 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 3: Arms like this and then know that the public's going 650 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 3: to vote them through or not vote them through. And 651 00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 3: that's just kind of how it is. 652 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: All right, second round of dances began with Elaine and Allen. 653 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: The passe dole. 654 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 3: Strikes again and strikes a sorry before you start.

It's like, yes, yes, give 697 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: it to her tens across the board rightfully, so she 698 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: deserves reserved yes.

We're going to vote for an 709 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: act or somebody who's had a good journey. All those votes, 710 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: all those people are probably gonna right now be channeling 711 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: those votes to somewhere, right, Yeah. 712 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 2: I would agree. 713 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 3: I also think one of the things that you and 714 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 3: I have not talked about, and it seems to kind 715 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 3: of I think, probably be par for the course for 716 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 3: this guy a little bit, especially the season, is her partner, Alan, 717 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 3: who I don't think we've ever really talked about Alan. 718 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 3: He's dealing with somebody who's slightly older and injured, and 719 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 3: to be able to go this far with her with 720 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 3: the court, I mean, again, if you're doing choreography and 721 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 3: it's like you've got a bad toe, you've got a 722 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 3: bad hip, you've got this, you've got a tailor what 723 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 3: you're doing to your partner, So to be able to 724 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 3: get out of her what he's been able to get 725 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 3: out of her, I don't think we've certainly not given 726 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 3: him enough credit throughout the season. That's a really good point, 727 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 3: and he's I think, been really killing it. 728 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 1: Frank, Yeah, Yeah, it's a good point. 729 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 2: All right. 730 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: Next up, Alex and val I thought this was pretty magical. 731 00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 2: I agree with you. 732 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: It was this, Yeah, I mean, for me, this was 733 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: when like Alex really because you know, Bruno had this 734 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 1: note about her connection with with Val and it was 735 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: so true when I think about her first dance, remember 736 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: the circus dance when we were there, Oh yes, right 737 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: and whip yeah, And I feel like the first couple 738 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: of weeks, she was always a good dancer, like her 739 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: body was always doing the right things, but it just 740 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,719 Speaker 1: never felt it was kind of like an AI dancer 741 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: or something like, Yeah, there was something a little like 742 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,840 Speaker 1: not connected in her eyes, a little bit soulless. Right, 743 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 1: that is not the case anymore. Like there like she 744 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: is in it body, heart, soul, like you're just with her. 745 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: And so she's become one of my favorites, like take 746 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 1: a lot of journey because I from the first episode, 747 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 1: I was like, Eh, she's good, but it's not gonna 748 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 1: speak to me. But this like spoke to me. It 749 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: was just beautiful. 750 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 2: I agree. 751 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 3: I think I think Dylan kind of said it best 752 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 3: in one of his pre show packages where he was like, 753 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 3: only part of this show is about dancing. The other 754 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 3: part of the show is about believing in what you're doing. 755 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 3: When it's like believing in yourself and what you're doing 756 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 3: when you're out there because that's you and I've talked 757 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 3: about that. The hardest part we would have is be 758 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 3: like the comedy version would be saying committing to the bit, 759 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 3: which is obviously this is not a bit, but this 760 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 3: is commit going out there and giving one hundred percent 761 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 3: and believing in what you're doing. That would be a 762 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 3: difficult barrier for you and I to break through. Where dance, Yeah, 763 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 3: with dance where I agree with you. She got out 764 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 3: there and she could definitely do the steps, but she's 765 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 3: now to the point there's like Dylan last week where 766 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 3: it's like, oh you you believe you're a dancer now? 767 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 3: And I can see yeah, So it does. It makes 768 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 3: It makes a very big difference watching them, And the 769 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 3: only thing I was thinking the whole time, and I 770 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 3: know she's married to Pasha and they have a little 771 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 3: kid and they're happy as hell. 772 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,280 Speaker 2: But I want to see Daniella and Val dance together. 773 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that to me would be something pretty remarkable. Yeah. 774 00:34:56,400 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, Dylan and Daniella up neck. Oh well, they got 775 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: tens across the board, no surprise, right, Uh, Dylan and 776 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 1: Daniella doing the chat cha if I'm remembering correctly, Yes, 777 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: and right at the beginning with the way he started 778 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 1: reminding me of his first dance too. Everyone he started 779 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:22,479 Speaker 1: on the judging table and doing his little I don't 780 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,760 Speaker 1: know if this was the right choice at this time, 781 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 1: Like this is precisely his weakness, right, Latin dancing hips. Uh, 782 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 1: he's better in the more like you know, partnered tango 783 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,520 Speaker 1: where anything where he can be the sort of leading 784 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 1: man without having to dance on his own. That said, 785 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:45,439 Speaker 1: I still thought it was great. 786 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was good. The cha cha is also not 787 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 2: one of my favorite dances. 788 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 3: Nope, I do prefer the tangoe stand up kind of 789 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:54,400 Speaker 3: sexy kind of dances. 790 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 2: But yeah, he wasn't It wasn't bad.

But as far as like expressive 842 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:05,920 Speaker 1: capacity and like emotional connection, I thought she's done better. 843 00:38:06,719 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 1: But I thought she was good. 844 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 2: But I did not say this was the best dance 845 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:10,759 Speaker 2: she's ever done. But again it was. 846 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 3: And now I feel a bit like I'm I'm bashing 847 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,359 Speaker 3: the person who was just kicked off or you know, 848 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 3: but you know, professional dancer dance as well film at eleven. 849 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 3: That's I mean, that's what you know. That's kind of 850 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:26,839 Speaker 3: what it was with me with her journey this year. 851 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,760 Speaker 3: She started as a really good dancer and she ended 852 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 3: as a really good dancer. That's that's great, and and 853 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 3: I love the fact that this was one of her 854 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 3: dreams and she wanted to be on the show and 855 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 3: all that journey. 856 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:38,359 Speaker 2: All that is great. 857 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 3: But if I'm watching somebody learn how to dance, then 858 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 3: I didn't watch a whole lot of her. 859 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,320 Speaker 1: Is she going back on Mormon Wives? 860 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 3: Now? 861 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: I don't know how that. 862 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:47,320 Speaker 2: Were I think it. 863 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 3: I think the third season just dropped, so I guess 864 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,879 Speaker 3: that's they've already shot it and she's not in it. 865 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 2: No, she is. She was in the third season. 866 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,280 Speaker 3: She had to do that third season to do Dancing 867 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,399 Speaker 3: with the Stars because she didn't want to go back 868 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 3: to the show, apparently, and then said, well, if you 869 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 3: go back to the show, you can be on Dancing 870 00:39:02,640 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 3: with the Stars. 871 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 1: And her admitting that pissed people off. 872 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 2: I know it was that's all. 873 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,800 Speaker 3: Somebody said that she was like raked over the coles 874 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 3: this week for I don't know if she's the villain. 875 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:13,839 Speaker 2: Don't they have like a villain on. 876 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,439 Speaker 1: The villain on Mormon Wives is Satan. That's it. There's 877 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,840 Speaker 1: only one villain and alcohol. 878 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,760 Speaker 2: Take another sip of burbotan Satan and caffeine. 879 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 1: Satan and Kaffy. 880 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 3: No. 881 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 1: I think SODA's okay, now. 882 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 2: Is it okay? Tar is not on unfortunately, but because 883 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 2: she would know all this stuff. 884 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 1: I this was the third person to cry in their 885 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 1: pre dance back yet it's a lot of tears, a 886 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:43,320 Speaker 1: lot of emotion, which was like, okay, we're just getting 887 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,479 Speaker 1: to the finale, I guess. But it also it did 888 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 1: lend a little bit of like attention to especially with 889 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,840 Speaker 1: Alex and Whitney. It made them a little more human 890 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: for me. I agree, I've taken them for granted. I 891 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,879 Speaker 1: think you know that that they're because that they're both 892 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 1: good dancers and they and so to see them both 893 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 1: break down on their pre dance package, I was like, 894 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 1: oh oh wow, yeah, yeah, there's artwork really hard. 895 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 3: I have to imagine that distress is cumulative, so by 896 00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:17,280 Speaker 3: week ten you're a frazzle mess of a raw nerve. 897 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 3: You also forget by looking at them that I think, 898 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 3: I mean, we googled it, Sue and I googled it. 899 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 2: Alex is twenty four. She's a kid. I mean she's 900 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 2: a kid. 901 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 3: So that compared I think Whitney's like thirty two or 902 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 3: something like that. And the difference between thirty two and 903 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 3: twenty four is very big. 904 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 905 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 3: So, I mean you've got somebody like Robert who's twenty two, 906 00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 3: You've got somebody like Whitney who's twenty four. These are children, 907 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,959 Speaker 3: So it's you know, I think by this point, you're 908 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 3: in the press for everything you do for weeks at 909 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 3: a time, You're dancing for hours every single day. 910 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 2: You've got to just be a raw nerve at this point. 911 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 3: Hmm. 912 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 2: Yeah. 913 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,399 Speaker 1: I mean I also imagine that there's this weird thing 914 00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 1: that must happen where you get on Dancing the Stars 915 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:04,719 Speaker 1: and it has to feel somewhat like a lark, you know, like, 916 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 1: oh my god, I'm I'm going to do this thing 917 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:11,040 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna and then somewhere in there you really 918 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 1: start to care about winning, Yeah, you know, in a 919 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: new way, like because it becomes more and more possible, 920 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 1: and it becomes less and less like it's an honor 921 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 1: to be nominated more like wit freaking thing. 922 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:23,479 Speaker 2: Yeah. 923 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I also think it's It's one of those things 924 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 3: too where my guess is, like, like a lot of 925 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 3: things in life, but especially things like this, you have 926 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 3: no idea what you're getting into when it comes to 927 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 3: the press, when it comes to the dancing, when it 928 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 3: comes to the physicality, when it comes to the live 929 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 3: show nights, when it comes to your entire life being 930 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,000 Speaker 3: these eleven or twelve weeks. My guess is, until you 931 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 3: do it, you have no idea what it's like, no clue. 932 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, do you. 933 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:50,800 Speaker 1: Think she regrets dropping the F bomb afterwards or whatever? 934 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: She said? 935 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 3: I don't know why she cited it, I asked, Yeah, 936 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 3: they definitely, they bleeped it. But you know, you're on 937 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 3: live TV in your alarment and you're throwing out the 938 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 3: F bomb. That's that's a big one. But no, I 939 00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,359 Speaker 3: think she'd already been kicked off. I think we were right. 940 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 3: I think apparently she just had a rough week. But 941 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,879 Speaker 3: it's again it shows that it's not about the best 942 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:10,919 Speaker 3: dancers making it to the finals, because whether she would 943 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 3: win or not. Again, I don't think anyone's going to 944 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 3: beat Robert. But if it's just about the dancing, she 945 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:16,720 Speaker 3: deserved to be in the finals. 946 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 2: All right. 947 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 1: Then came Jordan and Ezra with the Argentine dango once again, 948 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 1: breakthrough moment. 949 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:42,720 Speaker 3: She just walks in with her upside down like in 950 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 3: that position. 951 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 1: Crazy just perfect. Just this dance just brings out the 952 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 1: best in everybody and. 953 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:49,399 Speaker 2: Again of it. 954 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 1: Just like Danielle Vischel her legs. She's a very small 955 00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 1: person and yet manages with this dance to seem like 956 00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:00,799 Speaker 1: long legged and all the things that it's just so 957 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:06,319 Speaker 1: fun God and man technically just challenging as hell. This 958 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 1: might have been one of the most the way that 959 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 1: they were kicking their legs around each other, which is 960 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 1: always complicated in the Argentinian tango. This time I was like, 961 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: this is even more. They were doing it on like 962 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 1: another level. 963 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 2: Can I ask you a question? 964 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 3: And it might have just been my feed or I 965 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 3: might have been wrong, But did it seem like their 966 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,360 Speaker 3: kicks and the stuff they were doing were a bit slower. 967 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:26,600 Speaker 1: Than everybody else's. 968 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:27,640 Speaker 2: No, Okay, then I'm wrong. 969 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 3: Then again, my feed could have been glitching, because it 970 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:32,360 Speaker 3: seemed like there were times that that it was like 971 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,319 Speaker 3: kind of a slower version than some of the other 972 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:36,080 Speaker 3: ones we've seen. 973 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 1: Oh maybe that's true, you know, But I just know 974 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 1: that I was watching it going they're doing because like 975 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,400 Speaker 1: there will always be moments where you know, one partner's 976 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:46,399 Speaker 1: kicking in between the legs, right and then there would 977 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 1: be like one moment where they're both kind of doing it. 978 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: They had like multiple moments where they were I was like, Oh, 979 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: they're gonna trip each other. Oh, somebody are gonna mess up. Yeah, 980 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,800 Speaker 1: this is the case, and it's a takedown she's gotten. 981 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:02,759 Speaker 3: So I have to ask you a question. I'm gonna 982 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,760 Speaker 3: throw a real Sophie's choice at you. Hear something, Yeah, 983 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 3: you've got one dance to save your life. 984 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 2: Are you picking the passive dobla? Are you picking the 985 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 2: Argentine tango? 986 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 1: I could do that. I could. I could do the 987 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 1: more attitude. Oh I could. I could stand in front 988 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,600 Speaker 1: of the bull. I could fling that woman around as 989 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 1: my cape. 990 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 3: I like it. 991 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:30,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, as much as I like the Argentinian tango. 992 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 1: That seems harder. I think I could come in with 993 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: some attitude and command the station. 994 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, happy trail blow. 995 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:45,399 Speaker 1: All right, Robert and Whitney bringing it out? Oh wait, 996 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:46,320 Speaker 1: what did. 997 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 2: What did they get? 998 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,799 Speaker 1: What did the last ten's across the board? Jordan's first 999 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 1: ten ten ten, which apparently she's never gotten a perfect 1000 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:53,720 Speaker 1: score in gymnastics either, which seems crazy. 1001 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:57,560 Speaker 3: It does, but I think it's way harder harder perfect 1002 00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 3: scores and gymnastics at the Olympics than it is to 1003 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 3: get down. 1004 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 2: He's a death to get the star again. 1005 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 3: I haven't done either one, but I'm gonna throw that 1006 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 3: out there that it's probably more difficult. Both are important 1007 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 3: and important in her life, but I'm guessing tens across 1008 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 3: the board at the Olympic Games more difficult than tens 1009 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 3: from carry Ann Derek. 1010 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:17,000 Speaker 2: I He's like, come on, oh yeah, all right. 1011 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 1: Robert and Whitney came out.

She was a Boy Meets World fan too, 1030 00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:11,000 Speaker 1: and you know she's great, but but she you know, 1031 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 1: it was interesting. She just loves Robert I sort of. 1032 00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:17,359 Speaker 1: I know. I mean I knew, but I was, you know, 1033 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 1: trying to like feel her out, like, but don't you 1034 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,239 Speaker 1: feel like he's kind of destined to win and and 1035 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:24,319 Speaker 1: he doesn't need your support? She was like, no, I 1036 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 1: love him so much. I'm like, yeah, okay, I guess 1037 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:30,719 Speaker 1: he's just the one everybody's hearts for some reason. I'm 1038 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 1: taking him for granted, or I'm just I'm a little less. 1039 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 3: My favorite, though, is so they put up our clip 1040 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 3: on the Instagram feed, and first of all, I will 1041 00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:39,880 Speaker 3: say to all of our fans out there who are 1042 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 3: who are following our Podmeatsworld, uh journey, love the passion. 1043 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 2: There's people that hated us, that loved us. They couldn't play. 1044 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 3: But to a person, because we criticized Robert, people were like, 1045 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 3: you don't know how difficult it is to work with animals. 1046 00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 3: And I'm like, no, I I do believe it or not. 1047 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 2: I understand I thought you were Shape's father. 1048 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 3: No, no, no, They're like and I'm like, I know, 1049 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,279 Speaker 3: I get that he's twenty two years old and in 1050 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 3: phenomenal shape. He kind of alluded tonight to the fact 1051 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 3: he's like, when I was eleven years old and watching 1052 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 3: my sister, if you told me, I would have been 1053 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 3: been here, like, he's wanted to do this forever. So 1054 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 3: the idea that he's never danced from that moment to 1055 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:21,839 Speaker 3: now until he started dancing with the stars, I don't 1056 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,839 Speaker 3: buy that. I'm not saying he went out there and 1057 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 3: had dance lessons left and right. But he's done some dancing, 1058 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,479 Speaker 3: I will bet. Yes, not taking away from anything, and yes, 1059 00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:34,279 Speaker 3: I understand wrestling crocodiles is a very difficult and tough job. 1060 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 3: Not saying that at all. What I'm saying is it 1061 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:40,480 Speaker 3: seems like everyone wants him to win. That's that's all 1062 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:43,279 Speaker 3: I'm saying, and I don't disagree with that. I think 1063 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:44,960 Speaker 3: he frankly deserves to at this point. 1064 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:46,719 Speaker 1: Does he actually wrestle crocodiles? 1065 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 2: Does he think so don't you. Well, I think, you know, 1066 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,280 Speaker 2: he does a thing where he's like, all right, Crocky, 1067 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:53,280 Speaker 2: just everyone quiet, quiet. 1068 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 3: And then he jumps up behind him and puts his 1069 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 3: hands over their thing and like, no, I've got him. 1070 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:57,760 Speaker 2: This is big Noigel like that kind of Yeah. 1071 00:47:57,600 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 3: I think I think he does that kind of So 1072 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:02,239 Speaker 3: that's what his dad used to do, you know, So 1073 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 3: I think I think he does the same kind of stuff. 1074 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:06,839 Speaker 3: And yes, I get that's very difficult. I wasn't saying 1075 00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 3: he's in bad shape. I'm saying that I think he's 1076 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:11,400 Speaker 3: probably been doing. 1077 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:14,080 Speaker 2: Exactly exactly. 1078 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:16,600 Speaker 3: So I was like, wait, what, Yes, so no, I get. 1079 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 3: I just think they they a lot of people want 1080 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:20,960 Speaker 3: him to win. 1081 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 2: They love him. Everyone loves him and frankly rightfully, so. 1082 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:25,280 Speaker 1: He's super dude. 1083 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:26,799 Speaker 2: Yeah it. 1084 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 3: Now, here's my question, based just on journey from where 1085 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:36,759 Speaker 3: they started to where they ended, who do you think 1086 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,080 Speaker 3: improved the most as a dancer so far? 1087 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,800 Speaker 1: It's really hard. I think I think it's between Jordan 1088 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:52,080 Speaker 1: and Dylan for me, really, and I think Jordan obviously 1089 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,919 Speaker 1: had the athleticism, so she had to learn the sort 1090 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,880 Speaker 1: of emotionality, you know, she had to learn how the 1091 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 1: expressiveness and how to adapt to choreography, I think, and 1092 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:05,960 Speaker 1: I love that journey for her, and I don't think 1093 00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 1: it's really been appreciated enough. And Dylan, I guess, just 1094 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,040 Speaker 1: strikes me as the everyman who made right. Do you 1095 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 1: know in a way that like what you're talking about, Robert, 1096 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,799 Speaker 1: I don't feel. I don't feel like robertson every Man. 1097 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 1: I agree the same to the same degree that I 1098 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:22,480 Speaker 1: do with Dylan. With Dylan, I feel like I'm watching 1099 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 1: somebody who's also very athletic, has but is not. You 1100 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:28,560 Speaker 1: could tell when he started is just like not super 1101 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,399 Speaker 1: comfortable with dancing as a as a form, Like it's 1102 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,319 Speaker 1: not doesn't come naturally to him. 1103 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 3: When they showed that clip of his first dance and 1104 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,319 Speaker 3: the one that we were we were at, it was like, oh, 1105 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,360 Speaker 3: oh my god, that's right, that's where he started. 1106 00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 1: So I at least star journeys. 1107 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 2: Who would you say, I would say Dylan and Alex. 1108 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say Dylan and Alex really had because 1109 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 3: I think you're right at the beginning with Alex, she 1110 00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:50,560 Speaker 3: had the steps but was kind of didn't buy it 1111 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:52,279 Speaker 3: or was a little soulless when she was doing it, 1112 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 3: and then to throw in the fact that she's twenty 1113 00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:57,720 Speaker 3: four to just see like where she ended up tonight 1114 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,479 Speaker 3: and last week with what she did, that's a that's 1115 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,919 Speaker 3: a big step for me. Those so I think those 1116 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:06,560 Speaker 3: two so far have had the big the biggest progress. 1117 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,440 Speaker 1: But I think I think the finale is going to 1118 00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:14,520 Speaker 1: come down to Alex versus Robert. Yeah right, yeah, Alex 1119 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: for just pure dance ability are consistently insane numbers all 1120 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 1: over the map. Yeah, and then Robert is beloved.

Sometimes they don't know work m hmm 1175 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:19,280 Speaker 2: uh yeah. 1176 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:23,879 Speaker 1: So, man, I was pretty convinced Jordan was going home 1177 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:26,000 Speaker 1: when it got down to you thought, when it got 1178 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,920 Speaker 1: down how about when they were all just standing there, 1179 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:30,800 Speaker 1: they hadn't sent a single name yet, who did you 1180 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:34,520 Speaker 1: think was going home by that point? Elene? 1181 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,919 Speaker 2: Me too. I thought it was a layer Dylan. Frankly, Man, 1182 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:40,959 Speaker 2: I thought Dylan had at this point. 1183 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I thought Dylan had the weakest dancing night 1184 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 3: to right. 1185 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:50,640 Speaker 1: But think about consistency, Like Elaine did have some sixes 1186 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:52,959 Speaker 1: and seven throughout the season and that and didn't dance 1187 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:56,800 Speaker 1: one week, And I feel like has Dylan, Like I 1188 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,800 Speaker 1: guess he's had he had some early sevens and sixes, 1189 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 1: but like he's been like eight plus for weeks now. 1190 00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 1: I just feel like everybody else was in a different category. 1191 00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:08,160 Speaker 1: And you know, Elene is there for the journey and 1192 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:11,279 Speaker 1: her story, but I was pretty sure she was going 1193 00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 1: home when she got through right off the bat. It 1194 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:16,560 Speaker 1: was like, well okay, And you. 1195 00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:18,839 Speaker 2: Know they did that on intentionally. 1196 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,120 Speaker 3: Know everybody like you and I were sitting there going well, 1197 00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:24,600 Speaker 3: they know they know no Elaine's going home. 1198 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:26,239 Speaker 2: So we're the first one we're going to announce is 1199 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:27,880 Speaker 2: that a Laine is safe, and it is. 1200 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting, Like I'm trying to think how 1201 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,880 Speaker 1: I felt, because I've watched American Idol, Like that's the 1202 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:36,399 Speaker 1: show I've watched we start to finish through seasons many 1203 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 1: times me too, and enjoyed a lot, and I'm I 1204 00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:42,600 Speaker 1: don't like Dancing with the Stars. I feel like I 1205 00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:45,080 Speaker 1: want to keep watching even if everybody I like gets 1206 00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 1: voted off. I don't know if I'd say the same 1207 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 1: thing about American Idol in other words, interesting. I don't 1208 00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,200 Speaker 1: know why that is. Maybe I just still watch American 1209 00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:55,680 Speaker 1: Idol for the singing a little bit more, and so 1210 00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 1: if like all my favorite singers get off of mine, 1211 00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:00,719 Speaker 1: I don't care anymore. Whereas with this, like I want 1212 00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:02,799 Speaker 1: to keep watching like I'm right. So I don't know 1213 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 1: what that speaks to you. I don't know, but. 1214 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:07,279 Speaker 2: I watched old school Idol. I haven't watched in a while. 1215 00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 3: But the one thing I did like about Idol that 1216 00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:12,319 Speaker 3: that throws me about Dance with the Star still is 1217 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:15,680 Speaker 3: the judging. Meaning, like the judges on IDLE, they're gonna 1218 00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:17,319 Speaker 3: be harsh or they're going to not be harsher to take, 1219 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 3: but their feedback and their scores don't matter. 1220 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: Well, they don't actually have scores, that's what I mean. 1221 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 2: They don't matter. 1222 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:25,840 Speaker 1: They're just these are opinions and coaching and feedback. 1223 00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:27,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, and maybe some people are going to agree with 1224 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:29,799 Speaker 3: Simon and vote against somebody or something like that. 1225 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:31,799 Speaker 2: But for the most part, they just know it's a. 1226 00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 3: Popularity contest and they're going to vote somebody through it, 1227 00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:36,080 Speaker 3: and so they at least don't try to hide it 1228 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:38,160 Speaker 3: under the fact that it's like and the judges scores 1229 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:39,359 Speaker 3: get forty five point two percent. 1230 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 1: Actually, maybe that's why I like this more, is because 1231 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 1: I feel like I will learn something about dancing even 1232 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 1: if all of my favorite dancers get kicked off. So 1233 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 1: actually I think it might be it. 1234 00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:52,359 Speaker 3: You can learn something about this, a discipline that we 1235 00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:55,000 Speaker 3: know nothing about, whereas idole, you can't really learn anything 1236 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:55,640 Speaker 3: about singing. 1237 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Yeah, Like, that's what I mean. Like, 1238 00:54:57,880 --> 00:55:00,399 Speaker 1: so I think if all my favorite singers get kicked 1239 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:02,920 Speaker 1: off the IDOL, I don't keep watching because there's no 1240 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,120 Speaker 1: reason too. I'm like, oh, the entertainment factor has gone 1241 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:07,359 Speaker 1: for me and the education factor is not really there. 1242 00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 2: How do you do that as a TV show? 1243 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:11,400 Speaker 3: How do you shut off a show with like weeks 1244 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:12,239 Speaker 3: left to find out? 1245 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 2: How do you not complete that? 1246 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:15,760 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1247 00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 2: That would kill me. 1248 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:19,919 Speaker 1: I don't complete most TV shows. 1249 00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 3: I say, oh, I have to complete everything. I mean 1250 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 3: a horrible book right now, and you have just I 1251 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:25,000 Speaker 3: have to. 1252 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:29,080 Speaker 1: I can't TV shows. I tap out pretty consistently. Episode 1253 00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:31,480 Speaker 1: three or four, I'm like, all right, I'll wait to 1254 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,520 Speaker 1: see if anybody tells me this is worth it. Even 1255 00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:36,439 Speaker 1: if I love it the first second, I'll be like cool. 1256 00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:38,200 Speaker 1: By the third one, I'm like when they're well, now 1257 00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:40,320 Speaker 1: they're dragging this out. They couldn't wrap it up like 1258 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:43,719 Speaker 1: a movie, so they're just gonna keep it going every week. 1259 00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:46,640 Speaker 1: It's like lost, Oh, you have polar Bears. We forgot 1260 00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:49,759 Speaker 1: about dude. Now it's a time travel thing and. 1261 00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:53,799 Speaker 3: Every season is just going what the is happening right now? 1262 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,600 Speaker 3: Now there's a smoke monster? What that hell is going on? 1263 00:55:56,719 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 1: Tap out? 1264 00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:57,839 Speaker 3: All right? 1265 00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 1: So came down to the bottom three which are not 1266 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 1: maybe technically the bottom three three three couples stand Which 1267 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 1: who were who wasn't? In this case, it was Jordan. 1268 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:09,520 Speaker 2: It was It was Witty Whitney, Jordan and. 1269 00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:13,240 Speaker 1: Dylan, right, is that right? Yeah? 1270 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:13,759 Speaker 2: Maybe? 1271 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 1: And I was, yeah, I was like, oh, Jordan's going 1272 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:19,440 Speaker 1: home and that situation. Only I thought there was a 1273 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 1: chance it could have been Dylan. I thought there was 1274 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:24,160 Speaker 1: a chance it could have been Dylan. I just thought that. 1275 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:26,760 Speaker 1: I figured the week is night, Yeah, but I figured 1276 00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 1: his popularity was would override. But man, Whitney gone gone. 1277 00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:36,480 Speaker 3: If you go back and watch it again, she didn't 1278 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:40,960 Speaker 3: seem shocked. She really didn't see So, I mean, my 1279 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 3: guess is the stuff we've heard about all this stuff 1280 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:45,479 Speaker 3: going on on the internet this week shatter. 1281 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:48,919 Speaker 2: She obviously watches all that stuff too. She's a young 1282 00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:50,240 Speaker 2: so she's on all this stuff. 1283 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 3: So she was probably like, I'll bet you at some 1284 00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 3: point this week, I will I will bet all the 1285 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:56,319 Speaker 3: money in my pockets right now. At some point this 1286 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,719 Speaker 3: week she looked at her partner and went, I'm going 1287 00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:00,520 Speaker 3: home this week.
