Speaker 1: I think shotgun wed trend, shotgun wed trend. All right,
Speaker 1: that's where we're gonna go with. I am Jack. That
Speaker 1: is super producer Backa Ramas, back um back motherfuck Um.
Speaker 1: It's great tad, great tap um and got big shoes
Speaker 1: to fill for the next while. Yeah, yeah we got
Speaker 1: We got super producer Ana hosen It has gone to
Speaker 1: work and put together some great guest co hosts, some
Speaker 1: of y'all's favorites. So um yeah, well we'll be We'll
Speaker 1: be without Miles for a little bit, sadly but also
Speaker 1: fortunately because yes, he will be in our hearts and minds. Yes,
Speaker 1: all right, so should we tell the people what's trending?
Speaker 1: Let's do it. Let's do it. T J and Amy
Speaker 1: are back. T J Holmes and Amy Roebock. Um, we
Speaker 1: we covered this trend. When it came out, everyone was
Speaker 1: like shipping them because they were like the they anchored
Speaker 1: the third hour Chemistry. Yeah, g m A three third
Speaker 1: hour of Good Morning America. Um, they were the anchors.
Speaker 1: Everyone was like, oh my god, they're so cute. I
Speaker 1: want them to fund each other basically, and they were like,
Speaker 1: uh done, we we we got people, we got you covered,
Speaker 1: and they started sucking each other and then turned out
Speaker 1: they were already both happily married to other people. Um,
Speaker 1: they were already like good friends, like the as a couple,
Speaker 1: they like baby said each other's children. Um, so that's dark.
Speaker 1: The wives were really good friends. Yeah, the wives were
Speaker 1: really good friends. So that's funked up. And like, I
Speaker 1: think there's some krifuffle. So some rumors that t J
Speaker 1: this is not he's a bit of a womanizer. Um.
Speaker 1: So people are like, oh, this isn't as cute as
Speaker 1: it used to be. And the latest, um update is
Speaker 1: that ABC has fired them both, um and like after
Speaker 1: a lengthy what's it called when the company like gets
Speaker 1: you in a mediation process? Yeah? Where that that's you
Speaker 1: never want to be in one of those. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you that much. Folks. When you're in a like, it's
Speaker 1: always in contracts that you signed with big corporations. And
Speaker 1: then all right, we reserve the right to just invent
Speaker 1: a court in a boardroom somewhere and do whatever the
Speaker 1: funk we want to You legally, UM, and that seems
Speaker 1: to be what happened here. So TMZ is reporting they're
Speaker 1: both out at ABC. UM. Sources connected to the network
Speaker 1: tell us that it was a marathon mediation session Thursday,
Speaker 1: and that the mediation was extremely contentious, with ABC reps
Speaker 1: accusing both Amy and t j At various forms of misconduct,
Speaker 1: which one source characterized as a witch hunt. So that
Speaker 1: that phrase has been ruined, by the way, anonymous source
Speaker 1: for this TMZ thing, you can't you can't use it anymore,
Speaker 1: at least for like another few decades. I think we're
Speaker 1: just calling something a witch hunt immediately puts you in
Speaker 1: a weird place. UM. But we're told one of the
Speaker 1: accusations is that Amy had liquor in her dressing room,
Speaker 1: which the ABC folks said was a violation of policy. UM.
Speaker 1: One source, so that's the name of the source, called
Speaker 1: the accusation ridiculous, noting some of the bottles were sent
Speaker 1: from top of ABC News execs. Uh. And then they
Speaker 1: also accused Amy of being drunk at work sometimes at
Speaker 1: one point, but it was like the thing they were
Speaker 1: talking about. She had gone to a college football national
Speaker 1: championship game the night before and like showed up hungover
Speaker 1: to work, so they like, really, we're just like, uh,
Speaker 1: we're going to ruin you, ma'am. It's giving the Morning Show.
Speaker 1: As I was saying off air, I have not watched
Speaker 1: the Morning Show, but this gives me the same vibe
Speaker 1: of the premise. But yeah, that's the show. Yeah, So
Speaker 1: I don't know, don't have affairs with coch Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: all right. The world is ready for Shotgun wedding. I
Speaker 1: have been hearing about Chockolm wedding for a long time
Speaker 1: now because first we heard about it because I was
Speaker 1: initially a rom com between j Lo and m'am Armie
Speaker 1: Hammer Baby. Um. I don't know why that I said
Speaker 1: it that way. It was weird. So they had to
Speaker 1: recast that. They went with Josh Dumal just you know,
Speaker 1: real way better fit. Yeah yeah, yeah, Army and the
Speaker 1: Hammer has like an unsettling vibe about him, even before
Speaker 1: totally the you know, news of his cannibalism and sexual
Speaker 1: assaults happened. He definitely was someone I feel like Hollywood,
Speaker 1: there's like a really good article about it. I don't
Speaker 1: remember from where about how they were trying to make
Speaker 1: him happen and it just wasn't happening, you know, And
Speaker 1: it was before the news came out that this article
Speaker 1: came out. It's like, for years we've been trying to
Speaker 1: make Army Hammer happen and it's just not working. He
Speaker 1: has like a just like a nastiness about him. His
Speaker 1: his demeanor seems angry, like you're like like, um Uncounty
Speaker 1: Valley type of vibe. Your smile is scary. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: always seemed like he had like one ft in Patrick
Speaker 1: Bateman American psycho vibes like, and the things that he
Speaker 1: really worked in were things like that. Like I always
Speaker 1: felt like he was really good as like the winkle
Speaker 1: Box Twins, who were you know creeps who you know,
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, is so good is probably his best work.
Speaker 1: And he plays a like coked up like media or
Speaker 1: just like business executive, predatory, fucking creep um. And yeah,
Speaker 1: they definitely wanted him to be like a Hollywood leading man. Uh,
Speaker 1: Josh Tomal the best person to put in in his place.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I feel like for this role. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean if you look at Josh and Mall's history,
Speaker 1: he was a rom com man in his you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: he was definitely in a lot of um dreamy rom coms.
Speaker 1: He was also in the daytime sitcom or Romantics, and
Speaker 1: I don't know of Las Vegas. You know, anyone watching
Speaker 1: Procedure I love it might just be underrating Josh Tumaal
Speaker 1: because we like early in the pandemic, we watched that.
Speaker 1: Um it was a Hallmark movie that was like one
Speaker 1: of the top trending things on Netflix, and it was
Speaker 1: a rom com where he played basically like a Q
Speaker 1: and on person like he was like a prepper he
Speaker 1: and he was like lived in the country, and it
Speaker 1: had the standard Hallmark Q and or Hallmark politics of
Speaker 1: like woman who tried to make it in the city
Speaker 1: or the suburbs, like finds out that it's that that
Speaker 1: place as hell and that you have to move to
Speaker 1: the country and become a farmer, and like, okay, that's
Speaker 1: fair if you've only like think about it from that
Speaker 1: one movie. But you gotta think about when a date
Speaker 1: with Tad Hamilton's you gotta think about the Romantics, when
Speaker 1: New Year's Eve, that one's favorite. I've not seen any
Speaker 1: of these, so I'm gonna I know what I'm doing
Speaker 1: this weekend. But anyways, the real thing that people are
Speaker 1: coming to see is Jennifer Lopez get married again for
Speaker 1: the eightieth time. This is something that I was like,
Speaker 1: she so she's been in. She was just in marry me, Um,
Speaker 1: you know, made of honor, Um, we love her in
Speaker 1: a wedding context, and it feels like this was also
Speaker 1: a role that like Julia Roberts filled for a while,
Speaker 1: where like she had run away bride and my best
Speaker 1: friend's wedding and um also had like real life wedding
Speaker 1: drama like where she left, so it supposedly like left
Speaker 1: someone at the altar. I think it might have been
Speaker 1: key for Sutherland. Actually, um, good move, by the way,
Speaker 1: and then was like, you know, famously married to I
Speaker 1: love it, and everyone was like you blew it. He's ugly.
Speaker 1: That was really the takeh my god. But so I
Speaker 1: I was like trying to I was thinking about, like,
Speaker 1: what are they have in common that like makes us
Speaker 1: want to see because yeah, it does feel like Jennifer
Speaker 1: Lopez replaced her. And I think it's that they're both
Speaker 1: like just amazing, like mega watt stars who like you
Speaker 1: can just watch in anything, and also you want to
Speaker 1: see them like fall in love with someone. And also
Speaker 1: there's something about like you. I feel like both of
Speaker 1: them would be really mean to me if I like
Speaker 1: ran into them in any context, like outside of um,
Speaker 1: you think Julia Roberts would be mean? We know period.
Speaker 1: That's apparently like no thing doctrine in Hollywood is like
Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, she's she'd hate you. Um. But I
Speaker 1: always got that vibe that like, Julia Roberts would just
Speaker 1: like hate me, And maybe maybe that says more about
Speaker 1: me than anyways. Um, I do love this obsession. Um, okay,
Speaker 1: so here we we have them all. So we got
Speaker 1: the Wedding Planner two thousand one, we got Monster in
Speaker 1: Law two thousand five, we got Married Me, we got
Speaker 1: Shotgun Wedding and Whopping eight movies that she's been married in.
Speaker 1: Does Made of Honor not? Like? Is it just the
Speaker 1: maid kind of word play? There's no like wedding side
Speaker 1: to that word play. No, there is, I think, because
Speaker 1: she's like or made are you thinking made in Manhattan?
Speaker 1: Made a Manhattan? Was there not a Maid of Honor movie? Now?
Speaker 1: I gotta know, j Low Made of Honor did not?
Speaker 1: This article I pulled up Jess says that she was
Speaker 1: in eight wedding movies. But of course Why wouldn't That's
Speaker 1: a perfect chance for a listical. Why didn't you? Why
Speaker 1: didn't you give me a listical? But I failed? Um? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Made of Honor is a Patrick Dempsey movie that doesn't
Speaker 1: does not start. You've got the Wedding Planner. You've got
Speaker 1: Made in Manhattan? Um, you got made in Manhattan, Jeeliel.
Speaker 1: I think that one a movie where she gets married. Um,
Speaker 1: you've got Monster in Law. I wonder if Shawi Dance
Speaker 1: is also. I haven't obviously watched every movie that she's
Speaker 1: been married in. Um, but Elizabeth Taylor was like, I
Speaker 1: think the sort of platonic ideal of this type of superstar,
Speaker 1: and that she was the most glamorous, like beautiful person
Speaker 1: in Hollywood and also was like getting married or everybody
Speaker 1: was always talking about like who she was getting married to.
Speaker 1: I don't know if she transit, you know, turned that
Speaker 1: into box office gold. But um, anyways, uh, Shotgun Wedding
Speaker 1: is getting mixed too bad reviews, but everybody that sounds accurate.
Speaker 1: It's like forty two on the tomato meter. But everyone's like,
Speaker 1: but it's a lot of fun, So we'll see. Let's
Speaker 1: take a quick break. While we've been talking about j
Speaker 1: Lo getting married movies for a while. Uh, let's take
Speaker 1: a quick break and we'll be right back. And we're back,
Speaker 1: and they still haven't as this recording released, the Tyree
Speaker 1: Nichols video, there's just a lot of like statements from
Speaker 1: the police that are like it's really really bad. It's
Speaker 1: so it's so bad, like really going to be awful.
Speaker 1: You guys like you can't believe it. It's like you
Speaker 1: have the video, right, You're just you're just not showing
Speaker 1: it because of like windows, you don't like, it's it's
Speaker 1: a weird thing that they've They're like, it's going to
Speaker 1: be Friday night actually, and uh, it's just I don't know.
Speaker 1: But anyways, like uh, I did want to talk about
Speaker 1: Cops City though, the protests that are happening in Atlanta,
Speaker 1: because they began as a peaceful protest and vigil in
Speaker 1: Atlanta honoring a slain activist and it ended. Uh so,
Speaker 1: I love the way the CNBC covers, but it ended
Speaker 1: in property damage and several arrests Saturday and honoring a
Speaker 1: slain activist. How do they get that way? How did
Speaker 1: the activists get slain? And this has been this is
Speaker 1: a culmination or you know, escalation of two years of
Speaker 1: organizers and activists trying to get city leaders to not
Speaker 1: like knockdown thirty acres of forests in Atlanta or near
Speaker 1: Atlanta and build a giant police training facility. Oh my god.
Speaker 1: They've gone through city council, They've tried to like go
Speaker 1: to the legislative route. Nobody in the city wants this thing,
Speaker 1: Like yeah, yeah, it's like very wildly unpopular. And because
Speaker 1: I also wonder not that it would be any benefit
Speaker 1: to see the demo graphics, but I'm like, what is
Speaker 1: the demographics of the police force versus the civilians of Atlanta?
Speaker 1: You know, like, is it a white police force and
Speaker 1: an incredibly black city, Like at building a giant weapon
Speaker 1: of mass destruction in a city that does not need
Speaker 1: that type of policing. And you know what, we do
Speaker 1: need some fucking forests. I'll tell you. I'll tell you
Speaker 1: what we really need forests. It's almost like global warming
Speaker 1: is coming to get us. I don't really don't need
Speaker 1: more police I think is probably the moral of the
Speaker 1: story of the past fucking forty years. Um Keisha Lance
Speaker 1: Bottom's former mayor of Atlanta, now member of the I
Speaker 1: had an administration uh defended the project, saying in September
Speaker 1: that the forest at Land was the only viable location
Speaker 1: for such a facility. Um funk off please directly. Uh, Yeah,
Speaker 1: the worst. There is a violent video of Paul Pelosi
Speaker 1: being attacked that should shed any or you know, put
Speaker 1: to rest any doubt around you know. There there were
Speaker 1: like the rumors that oh it was actually like an
Speaker 1: escort that he had that attacked him, and that's what happened.
Speaker 1: And like so this is body camp footage. The police
Speaker 1: arrive and there is this person who is like central
Speaker 1: casting mega dude, like you know, appears to have been
Speaker 1: styled by the oath keepers um standing there with a
Speaker 1: hammer that Paul Pelosi is like also holding like desperately
Speaker 1: being like, you know, trying to just be like, guys,
Speaker 1: could you please take the And then the guy rests
Speaker 1: the hammer away and really like winds up and wax
Speaker 1: Paul Pelosi in a way that it like does make
Speaker 1: you amazed that he's that he survived it. Crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And Pedro Pascal is hosting s n L and we
Speaker 1: thought this is a good opportunity for us to just
Speaker 1: you know, take a moment talk about where we've seen
Speaker 1: Pedro Pascal where where we first saw him? Why why
Speaker 1: we appreciate Pedro Pascal? Um? You you are an appreciator
Speaker 1: of his of his work. Absolutely, I'm an appreciator of
Speaker 1: his hotness and his work. Um, I'm an appreciative of
Speaker 1: his representation. Um. He is Chilean, we stand our Chilean king. Um.
Speaker 1: I will be figuring out a way to watch him
Speaker 1: on SNL because really SNL has been pulled from Hulu,
Speaker 1: so you can't watch new episodes on Hulu, which is
Speaker 1: absolutely disrespectful. Um. But I feel like I first fell
Speaker 1: in love with Pedro Pascal in ironically, um, probably Narcos,
Speaker 1: and then I went back and watched a lot of
Speaker 1: his other works like film and other TV. I am
Speaker 1: not a watcher of the Last of Us, which is
Speaker 1: I know the reason why he's on SNL. I won't
Speaker 1: be because it is just like not my vibe. But
Speaker 1: do I rewatch Narcos to see Pedro Pascal one thousand percent?
Speaker 1: Did you watch Mandalorian? Yes? I did watch Mandalorian too, absolutely,
Speaker 1: but he's masked a lot of that, so you know
Speaker 1: that's that's too much mask for me. Probably the most
Speaker 1: the handsomest, like he doesn't always have a mustache, but
Speaker 1: he definitely looks better with a mustache about every like, really,
Speaker 1: anyone that I can think of of other than like Selic,
Speaker 1: Like he's the the Selic and the Burt Reynolds of this.
Speaker 1: You are right, he does give me a Latino Burt
Speaker 1: Reynolds vibe. Yeah. I mean he played uh whatever, whiskey
Speaker 1: dude in the Kingsman Agian whiskey whiskey dude. Yeah, whiskey dude,
Speaker 1: this little Southern accident. I was like, that's my guy,
Speaker 1: and it's interesting. So normally you put a mustache on me,
Speaker 1: I go from that guy seems like he's not that
Speaker 1: harmful too, you know, villain, but like everybody starts holding
Speaker 1: their children a little bit closer when I have a mustache. Um,
Speaker 1: you put a mustache on him, You're like that that
Speaker 1: is the handsomest, most trustworthy man I've ever seen. Take
Speaker 1: it off, and he's the villain from Wonder Woman. That's true.
Speaker 1: It does not work in the reverse work. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: he doesn't look as good or like like someone I
Speaker 1: want to hang out with without the mustache, but he
Speaker 1: Wonder Woman such a strange movie. It is a weird movie.
Speaker 1: It was we were talking about this off air. It
Speaker 1: is very much like a fable, like it's not giving
Speaker 1: superhero movie. You know, it has a weird tone to it.
Speaker 1: I hated Kristen wigg as a as a villain. I
Speaker 1: just don't think that was really her vibe. It didn't
Speaker 1: suit her very well. Um, it was very much a drama,
Speaker 1: like the whole thing is a very long drawn out movie.
Speaker 1: I did obviously cry for the breakup of um Wonder
Speaker 1: Woman and what's his face, um, Chris Pine. I mean
Speaker 1: not breakup obviously, like he had to enter back into
Speaker 1: the real world or whatever. That made me sad because
Speaker 1: I do like them as a couple. But I hated
Speaker 1: the movie. Yeah. The It was also very strange because
Speaker 1: he's not actually his character's body is not in the movie.
Speaker 1: It's like they steal some person's body, some human beings
Speaker 1: like life and just like hack his. It is like
Speaker 1: the fact that that script I got through and they're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll spend a d and eighty million dollars on this,
Speaker 1: at least, like I feel I feel like that like
Speaker 1: production budget had to have been around a hundred million
Speaker 1: dollars and then the marketing budget was probably at least that.
Speaker 1: Um it is one of the weirdest movies because yeah,
Speaker 1: they made a it's like a children's fable, and like
Speaker 1: Pedro Pascal's character is like so strange. He's like this
Speaker 1: really broad, like kind of hapless loser where he's like,
Speaker 1: oh gee, I'm really screwing this one up. Like it's
Speaker 1: not not what I was expecting from him as a villain, um,
Speaker 1: but also kind of winning, you know in the absense,
Speaker 1: like you still love him a little bit, and that's
Speaker 1: what he us to our hearts and minds. Petro Pascal
Speaker 1: I just saw on his scholarly source Wikipedia that he
Speaker 1: was in Nigo Montoya for the home movie Princess Bride.
Speaker 1: I didn't realize a they made another Princess Bride, I
Speaker 1: guess mini series but directed. Yeah, it seems like, um,
Speaker 1: I don't know it says episode chapter two, the Shrieking Eels.
Speaker 1: Either way, I do think he would make a great
Speaker 1: Nigo Montoya for um, the Princess Bride. That makes sense
Speaker 1: to me. That does that makes all the sense? All right, Well,
Speaker 1: those are some of the things that are trending on
Speaker 1: this We also have Mascarrogate. But I feel like masscarrot
Speaker 1: Gate is not going away, Isn't that right? Like? I
Speaker 1: feel like no, it's got a lot of trends to
Speaker 1: cover backa we got to cover and I could go
Speaker 1: on about Masscarrogate for a solid ten minutes, So let
Speaker 1: me just have to standalone episode. Um, all right, it
Speaker 1: goes all the way to the top, is what I'm told.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, thank you so much for joining Becca.
