The SWAMP (00:00.18)
Emily, no matter what happens, I'm glad I came with you. Here to the

Is that a good, where are they in this movie? Oklahoma? Yeah. I think they start in like Arkansas? Arkansas? Arkansas? Arkansans? Yeah, something like that. All I know is they're like, we have to get to Mexico without going through Texas. And she's like, girl, there's simply no way. Literally. There's simply no Get on a boat. Yeah, right. We're going through the Gulf. We're actually going go by way of Florida. That's where I want this story to go, to Florida. And then they go to Cuba? Yes. Ugh, I wish. Yeah, no.

I, for as much as Louise really does it for me, I was like, girl, you're not being reasonable. Which is not the point. I felt like she was self -aware that when she says Mexico, she means I'm gonna kill myself. Like, do you know what I mean? Like, I think there was this Mexico we're past. Yeah, it was like sort of this air of like, I'm saying Mexico, but we all know that Mexico means heaven. Like, Mexico means the next.

Like if I can get to Mexico sure right, but if not, it's a great. Yeah, it's like it's like 25 % I mean Mexico 75 % I mean, I'm dead. I mean I'm driving off of the side of the Grand Canyon. This was all her major play at all. Yeah, actually, I just really wanted to die and spent it having a baller weekend with the homegirls. Absolutely. Which honestly, I kind of feel that I'm like prison for life or three awesome days with your bestie and then you end it all.

I'm taking the ladder. Well, if you ever run into trouble, let me know. If you want to go in the lamb. Want to go in the lamb with me Emily? That's kind of what this podcast is I fear, is that we're on the lamb and we're just running for our lives until something catches up to us. Hi everyone. Welcome to our podcast. It's called Swamp. It's an acronym. Stands for some wack ass movie podcasting. And we're ending good movies month. Yeah. With a good movie, I would say. you not seen this before?

The SWAMP (02:02.406)
I'm horribly guilty of watching like halfway through a movie. I'm falling asleep. I think I get it from my dad. that's such a dad quality. It's like that's why they watch all movies standing up. So they don't fall asleep. That's why he is 10 feet away in the kitchen watching with his hands on his hips. It's because he's like, if I sit down, I'm knocked out. Yeah, yeah. Because the amount of times I've like come down at like 1130 at night and my dad, first of all,

fully slouched on the couch, back across the seat. Entirely. Legs out a mile into the living room. Eyes closed, just done halfway through like doubt. Doubt, not doubt. That is one you could fall asleep to. I will. Exactly. Yeah, I will say. But yeah, I had seen like the first probably half of this until like, like when Brad Pitt got taken in for stealing their money and being on the run.

Sure, so you'd say a little more than halfway then I'd say. That's like a good two thirds. Yeah, something like that. But I never finished it. Obviously I knew kind of what was gonna happen. I was gonna ask, did you know? was gonna say, did you know the ending that they drive off the side of the cliff together? Yeah, that's so iconic that I could almost see it being sort of a sixth sense type of movie ending where people are like, well, I know, why would I watch it if I know? But I think it's still worth getting there.

Personally, but I could see how somebody would make the argument of like, yeah, I know the thing. Like, why would I watch it? Ridley Scott kind of surprised. Yeah, absolutely. Well, I was shocked. I mean, I texted you this being like shocked that a man did this and you're like, a woman wrote it. Yeah. So I was, I was thinking the same thing and I was, I guess content warning for this episode. Thelma and Louise is a movie that involves a lot of graphic on screen sexual violence.

and like literal on -screen rape. And the movie's sort of, I wouldn't call it like a rape revenge, but just sort of like them getting revenge on men in a sense for this like active sexual violence that happens. we're gonna be talking about that a fair amount. If that's not your jam, can, you know. Yeah. This movie is definitely not for anyone who wants to avoid that kind of stuff. It's like, it's incredibly graphic to the point of almost like excessive. Like I'm like, did we really need to see?

The SWAMP (04:25.878)
that much, but I guess I'm also a little sensitive to that sort of thing sometimes. like, I just don't think we need to see a bit enter her. Yeah, exactly. I don't need to see the hole. I mean, I would love to see Gina Davis's hole, but just not like not right now, not like this. Like that's not how I want it she wanted to show me herself. Right, right. If Gina Davis saw me from across the bar and said, Hey, do you want to go

on the parking lot and I would say yes, of course. Yeah, we'd be fucking in that convertible. yeah. I would get her consent and then we'd be line dancing as they say. my God. I'll tell you what, this movie did make me want to line dance. I've been line dancing. I'm jealous. I'm incredibly uncoordinated. I did not do dance as a kid like

to retain any of that. I'm super white. I have no coordination. I would say my base levels that I like did bands in high school so I know how to count to music. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You have a sense of rhythm. But like hardly. My body does not really listen. Your hips don't move the way you want them to. I academically understand how music works and yet somehow my body is like, girl. Like, it's not. It's not. You're holding onto the beat for dear life. Yes, yes. It's very that. And I was on a work trip.

down to, was like South Carolina, South Carolina, of course. we're in, Gaffney, is where Kevin Spacey is character in, that president show.

House of Cards. House of Cards. He's like a originally a senator from Gaffney. that tells me everything I need to know. Yes, exactly. I was down there. there like for Chick -fil -A promo? I was down there doing a peach milkshake promo for Chick -fil -A. They gave us like t -shirts to wear and they were like after this event, these Chick -fil -A t -shirts, if you guys could not donate them instead

The SWAMP (06:24.226)
destroy them if you don't want them because we don't want our brand to have anything nefarious done to it. And if someone finds this at a goodwill, they will like, you know. I love it. Love that. But so I was in Gaffney and this girl at the Chick -fil -A event was like, y 'all want to come to one -eyed Jacks later? We were like, fucking sure, I guess. And we went and that shit is so crazy. I swear that these people in their free personal time.

must learn this choreo. I'm sure. Because there's one that they're like, think they're just at the bar often enough. I guess, but every song has a different dance to it. Yeah. With incredibly intricate steps and hand movements and clapping and spinning. And now you have a partner and you're in charge of making sure they do the right thing. It's fucking crazy. I swear these people are at home like rehearsing.

and then they get to the club and they show up and that's like their jam. Cause I was like, we, we are expected to come knowing these dances. didn't give me the itinerary. Right? You didn't give me the step list. Yeah. I was like, I guess I was expected to learn this ahead of time, but it was crazy. How, like watching 200 people all know every in like precision, locked the fuck in. Yeah. It's like, I think it's ingrained in their brains, like DNA wise when you're born.

I guess there's also like when there's nothing else to do. as well like. Well I would certainly rather be at the bar line dancing than like listening to a crowd of men talk about like whatever they talk about. That's true at the bar. Yeah I'd rather be dancing than talking to some man. It looks insanely fun. Like if I knew it I would absolutely go. When I was attempting to do it like during the easier

I felt like I was fighting for my life. Like I really was like unless I went home and learned this and showed back up, it's not fun. Did it feel like when you had to sight read music? Yes! the worst. The fucking worst. Anyway, I'm pathetic, I'm pathetic, I'm the worst. I actually don't know how anything works anymore. I actually don't have control of my body anymore. What's going on? I also always felt that whenever you had to read out loud in

The SWAMP (08:30.702)
Whenever you did popcorn reading, like, suddenly the English language has escaped me. Yeah, and then every now and then it's like, say the N word. Yeah, so, my God, that happens so often to, I wonder at what year did that change, right? Kids in public high schools, we live in the most liberal state in the country. yeah, they still - They were like, we're gonna read Tom Sawyer and you're gonna say it out loud. Yeah. The teacher's looking at you. Yeah, in a classroom that is

So white. And it's 2012. Yeah. Insane. Yeah, I bet they don't do that anymore. But I wonder out what year, what year was the curriculum like? My brother loves an English teacher. To kill a mockingbird. my God. At what point are they like, maybe we shouldn't make this, the kids say this. Yeah, I'm like 14 and like trying to figure out like at what point I should volunteer to like read next so that I don't have to. Fighting for your life. That's actually the thing I learned about public speaking that was very helpful to me is when you

to give a speech or you have to give your presentation, you're not thinking about the person who's up there talking. You're thinking about yourself. You're thinking, I'm practicing what I'm going to say. I'm really focused on when am going to volunteer to go? When is it going to be my turn? So when you're the person up there talking, nobody in the audience is fucking giving a shit about what you're saying. Like you're other than maybe the teacher and honestly, not even in grad school. I was like, yeah, I'll fucking get up there and go first.

Cause then I don't have to think about it for the rest of the time. And I know not a soul in here is thinking about me. thinking about themselves. That's why you want to go first, not last. Absolutely. And if you go in the middle, the people that just went are just wondering if they smell because they were sweating so much while they were up there. literally thinking about my own B So real. I used to be terrified of public speaking. I was bad. I would always go and I would have my present by the end of like senior year of college, I would

take just about a day to cut out like six hours. And, cause I mean, they'd have you doing long ass presentations. I don't know about you. I do like 30 minute presentations for class and stuff like that. I would take like a day to practice the entire thing so that I would know it by heart and that I wouldn't have to worry about stuttering because like I'd have it so down. But yeah, that's like where my anxiety came out the worst.

The SWAMP (10:48.318)
Absolutely. And like practicing talking slow is insane. Even regulating myself for the podcast sometimes I'm editing and I'm like, girl, why are you? Henry always says that I'm like Tom Nook. Like literal Animal Crossing villager. Like girl, you can just annunciate. Like it's okay. But so the reason I brought up content warnings and Ridley Scott is because I was sort of thinking about like how he uses

like a rape incident in so many of his movies that I was like, what is this man's fucking deal? Right? And then I was like thinking like, well, I know that the latest, one of his latest ones, The Last Duel, that's like the crux of it. Yes. I've never seen that, but I, when I was researching this - Well, why would I ever want to watch something with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck in like Medieval

I'm good. However, Jodie Comer on the other hand Ridley Scott is one of those that I feel like I think of him as sort of on a pedestal in my mind because of aliens. course. And I'm like, yes, one of the greats. But then I go through and I think of all of his movies I've actually seen. So super fucking mid. Sure. Napoleon. Mid as fuck. The Martian. Gladiator.

I did not care for Gladiator. This movie is going to give it a yes. The 1984 Apple ad that I for some reason had to watch 90 million times in graduate school. They're like Ridley Scott did this ad for Apple and it's groundbreaking. And I'm like, okay. I don't know why I added that to the list, but Blade Runner, big no for me. I do not like the original Blade Runner. Yeah, big rape scene there. Yup. And then Alien, which is another big yes. So the two movies that are female protagonists.

get big yeses from me, but everything else I'm like, no, not really so much my vibe Ridley. So yeah, I don't really have a great track record with him personally. Yeah, he's like really not my favorite. And I think of him as being, you know, one of the all time greats. But you know, I guess his work just doesn't always really resonate with me. I think I realized how much Russell Crowe he yeah, that's one of his besties.

The SWAMP (13:02.414)
Yeah. He's got Reznor Crowe on the law. Yeah. He also has a ton of random fucking movies I've never heard of before. Like Robin Hood. 1492, a Christopher Columbus movie. Like what the fuck? I forgot he did House of Gucci. Yeah. Like so random. Not a lot of this is speaking to me, honestly, but yes, the fact that both like two prominent ones are like, yeah, she has to get raped for the plot to be there. Right. Like I hate that. But so I was kind of looking into this because I was like, what is his deal?

this but then I saw that this movie the screenplay is written by a woman and it actually won the Oscar best original screenplay. Great. She was the first woman to win a screenplay Oscar since like 1930 something. That's fucking dope. So in 1992 at the 1992 Oscars. literally insane and I guess that this movie it took a ton for it to get made because they're like yes statistically speaking movies written by women no movies about women no movies with

Two female protagonists and no male protagonist. it's like two female leading stories written by a woman. This is simply not going to get made. And I guess when it kind of made its way to Ridley Scott, he was like, I really fuck with this, but I just like, don't think I should make it. And they were like, no, no, no. Like no one else is going to make it. And if they get, he's like, this just feels like a woman should direct it. And they're like, no, if a woman directs it, a woman already wrote it. And so it's just not going to

They're like, literally need your penis and your name in order to get this movie off the ground. he so he was doing charity work. Yeah, basically. Right. But he did. He got into it. He loved the script. I'm sure it's great. But it was it is a fundamentally female story, which is why I feel like it speaks to me. And I was kind of like, a man did this. That feels kind of weird. It's like because it's not really right. Yeah. Well, Susan Sarandha and Gina Davis also. I mean.

Slay my Powerhouses. Slay my life. Gina Davis, we're really cranking through her discography. Honestly, yeah. Because every May, we do an actor pun of we've done Paul May, no, you and May, Gregor. And I've always put her on with Gina May this. But honestly, what's left? Stuart Little? Like what is left of her discography that we haven't done? We've covered all of their own. Yeah, like all of her bangers, essentially the fly, this.

The SWAMP (15:24.03)
Why do I always, maybe it's just cause it's Ridley Scott, I always want to put Sigourney Weaver in this trio of these three. You know what I mean? Cause they're all almost the same to me. Well, feel, yes, I feel like there's a lot of Sigourney Weaver in Susan Sarandon. I always feel like if you kind of just squished a Sigourney Weaver, like made her a little shorter, that's Susan Sarandon, like compact Sigourney Weaver. Okay, thank you. No, I really, I really see

Like, I don't know what it is, you know what I mean? It's like that video of, was it Jenna Marblesman? Julianne being like, my God, thinks everyone's like Jennifer Garner or something. like Nicole, I don't know who it is. He thinks everyone's Anne Hathaway and it's all Jennifer Garner or something. they are really similar. What's her name? The Blind Side.

Sandra Bullock. Sandra Bullock, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sandra Bullock, Julia Roberts, and like Anne Hathaway, those three. And I'm like, they're all the same. Would you like, to be fair, I think every single one of these actresses could fill in in another one's filmography. You know I mean? And it would still be fabulous. Well, I believe even for the roles of Thelma and Louise, they were kind of like, yeah, either of you can do

Yeah, whatever you want. Like when they casted them, they were sort of just like, yeah, we just like the two of you. And so it just sort of is what it is. Choose amongst yourselves. Right. Which I'm glad they did though. Yes. up the way it was. I really loved the, I guess you could say it was sort of like a mother daughter dynamic, but

I feel like it's so much more of this thing that happens in all female friendships where inherently one of you is like the mom friend and the other one is like the problem friend. Whereas like even if you are both typically mom friend types, if somebody always slips into the like, I'm gonna take care of you, I feel role, which is, I just felt like we got sort of a very intimate picture of female friendship that we don't often get in movies. I loved the dynamic between the two of them. Well, it's a little gay, but it's also not.

The SWAMP (17:28.847)
That's just women being besties. Exactly. Which is inherently a little gay. Which is like, they don't kiss because they're lesbians. They kiss because they love each other. They kiss because they're just two gal -gay pals. Not to, you know, delegitimize two ladies who want to kiss. Absolutely. But I liked their dynamic a lot and I loved how they costumed Susan Sarandon.

my, the two bandanas, the two tiny little bandanas. So fucking good. Or just like she always had the top button done, you know? I just really, that resonated with me. And not to objectify women, but Susan Sarandon has got some honkers on her. Susan Sarandon has got enormous jugs. I feel like I didn't even.

Think about and you don't even think of it in this movie, but I'm always thinking about it me personally I'm always thinking about it and you can cut you have Susan Sarandon's boobs tattooed on the back of your eyeballs. Yeah Literally, you know the picture I'm talking about she's like in this black dress and it's like from fairly recently So she is like 70 years old, but she just looks so fucking hot If you just google Susan Sarandon boobs, it will be the first thing that comes up She's just amazing and and I just like that they the way that they dressed her I don't know

Yeah, literally insane. She's she's everything to me. Susan Sarandon got kind of a lot of backlash. Wasn't there like a video of someone it was like her daughter being like, can you stop talking about my mom's boobs, guys? she just she did. But she was like a huge Bernie bro back in the 2016 election. And a lot of people like turned that on her and were like, because you advocated for Bernie so hard, that's like you were pulling votes away from Hillary. shut

kind of thing, but I'm just like, damn, real ones in Hollywood, her and Jane Fonda, I them to link up. You were talking about how everyone like, do always has a mom friend. I don't think we have that though. Yeah. I think if one of us was in like peril, like the other one would step up. Yeah, that is true. But like we are, neither of us are.

The SWAMP (19:33.056)
No, I think we're both, yeah, we're both baby. I don't think I have a pizzeria mommy. think I have both. I think we're both your husband. Yeah, don't really like often. No, we're traveling together with you, me and Hank. my God. But yeah, no. Susan Sarandon, like while I love her character so much, when she every time that.

Thelma would like step up when it was go time. it was go time. Absolutely. And that's what I loved. Because I'm like sitting there, I'm like, yeah, you're done. Yeah. I'm like, Thelma, you're acting dumb as bricks right now. You need to cut this out. But like, if you need to rob a bank, she'll do it for you. So endearing. found her. I found her so endearing and her costuming as well. like Louise was more for me. Well, yes, because it's just like logical. Yeah. But I just.

Gina Davis, just something about her. She's like six feet tall. She's got huge features. Just like everything about her is just insane. She's just like this gorgeous, Amazonian woman. She reminds me of like the, she reminds me of at the MFA. They have the big giant. The Juno. Yeah, the Juno statue. no arms. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's Susan Sered. That's Gina Davis to me. That's, yeah, that's Gina Davis.

Absolutely. I would love to see Gina Davis play like a giantess in like a fantasy. giant woman. I just got to the part in the Generation V TV show. Yep. I'm watching it. It's like the boys' spin -off where... Way better than the actual season of The Boys. Emma, the girl who usually gets small, she gets big. And Henry and I literally got off the couch and we're like, she got big!

Just big and naked. about a giant woman, What else can I ask for? Yeah, thoughts on that show versus this actual season of The Boys. Not to derail for a moment. Yeah, I thought the new season of The Boys was fine. I think you made a great point. I thought it was pretty ass. Where you were like, sometimes I wonder if this show is becoming the thing they're making fun

The SWAMP (21:44.938)
which I really see sometimes. like, you're kind of like, some of the dialogue was so corny, like really hamming it up. I had some great moments as well. It's always unexpected. Like I love the gratuitous violence of like, yeah, we're going to show a guy's dick explode. yes, I think that's a great use of CGI. I love it. But yeah, comparatively, I thought it was kind of mid. I am hoping the show ends soon. It's kind of overstaying its welcome, I believe.

And I think the Gen V show is okay. I'm interested to see how they loop it back in with the show. I think that will make me care a little bit more about next season of The Boys, because it's like, the You finished it, right? No, not yet. I'm just at the episode where she gets big. So I don't know. think we have no, no, no, no, the season of The Boys. yes, I'm done with the season Okay, yeah. I thought they did Newman so dirty. That was such a shit way to kill like a great character. Butcher, like, is not even a fun villain to like hate.

anymore like Game of Thrones. I loved to hate Cersei and Joffrey and in the early part of the show I definitely liked to dislike Butcher. I don't care anymore. Like just kill him off. He was a wuss. Starlight, I don't care. Botched. Starlight botched. I hate how they tried to make Frenchie so...

like endearing. I feel like they're just doing that because he's a massive Zionist, the actor. Yeah. You told me that and I was like, that that kind of checks. Yeah, like in the in the IOF like kind of guy. IDF. Yeah. Well, I'm going to say.

because that's not a defensive force. Those are terrorists. I've never heard somebody phrase it that way. Yeah, well, they're just, yeah, terrorists. Well, yeah, that's, no, that makes so much sense. Like, yes, of course. Of course it's not defensive. Yeah. my God. Yeah. I also hated that they put him and Kamiko together romantically. Finally. I hate that. I love when it's more of a, we actually get like a genuine opposite gendered friendship without there being this like, we want to fuck element. I just think that that is so much.

The SWAMP (23:48.81)
infinitely more interesting. They're being like, no, but they do wanna fuck. but they are. There's a better reason to have Kamiko find her voice. Yeah, right. Like, trust me. The only thing that saved this season for me was Anthony Starr's portrayal of Homelander. That man fucking locks in. He gets better and better every season. I think it's great. And then Sage.

That duo is the only thing that saved this for me. the actress who was in Orange is the New Black, she played Tamika, the guard. You don't remember, but she used to work at the chicken shop with Tasty, and her and Tasty were friends at the chicken shop. And then it's like Tasty's in prison and now Tamika's a guard, but they have a rapport. Yeah. Super minor character. But I loved her then, and I love seeing her pop up again She crushes Phenomenal actress. She crushes this. No, literally, the Homelander actor.

got Henry and I Googling like the fucking Australian TV shows that he was in like before this being like, should we watch these? He's like for this man. He's phenomenal. Yeah, so so good. There's just yeah, every now and then I think there's a handful of roles that people are like made for and he has consistently impressed me for the last like five, six years or whatever however long it's been on. Nicole Kidman's singular twin song as yeah.

Dude, the poor kid, his poor pupa -y voice. Aw, yeah, they're just putting him on blast. Well, he's putting himself on blast, dude. He was like, I can't believe this is out in the world forever now. Of course, yeah. Which it's really like, it really only is like a three month period when it's that bad. They just caught him at the right time. yeah. I feel like if Gina Davis was a superhero.

None of this would have happened. No, well, of course not, because she would have just killed Darryl. She would have shot lasers out of her eyes at him, as she should have. guess if you haven't seen Thelma and Louise, a incredibly brief recap is that Thelma, played by Gina Davis, is married to this guy named Darryl. In the South, I believe you can say the name Darryl with as minimal syllables as possible. Darryl. Darryl! Darryl!

The SWAMP (26:02.907)
You can really get it down to just like a guttural. Like, you know what I mean, right? It's a fun one to yell to. But he is a bad husband. We don't see him. We don't see him ever like hit her, but it is implied that he's a little rough with her and also a serial cheater. Never home. Yeah, would definitely give her like an STD without saying yes. And like expects her to just stay

while he works and she needs his permission to leave the house, that sort of thing. So very toxic, abusive relationship. And Thelma's like, hey, I want to go on a trip with Louise. Her boss has a lake house that they're going to use. And she's like, all right, I'm going to go. And Louise is like, hey, you need to ask your husband so that he doesn't get pissed. And Thelma's like, no, I'm not going to do that. So they just go. They put on their little, this movie really made me think about the romanticization of driving, I feel like.

like media and like me, you know, walking in and listening to my podcasts and shit now has like taken away of like when I want to be in a convertible with a little scarf around my head. Scarf around my big sunglasses looking like Patrick Swayze and to on food. like that's everything I want more. And I just like, I'm never going to have that because I drive a Subaru out back and I'm going to walk in and listen to my like D &D podcast. Like I'm just not going to

I know they have like the most beautiful shot of them like, gabbing in the car, like singing along to some songs, like post killing a man. Right. That's a true capture of what it's like to be with the girls. Exactly. But I was like, what I would do to be able to drive across.

the South with Susan Sarandon and Gina Davis. But they take a pit Sippin' bourbon on the way. Right? The wild turkey nips don't get me started, but they take a stop at this like line dancing bar to

The SWAMP (28:00.942)
I'm like, this place does not serve food. Like they have chili. Like I don't know what you're talking about. Selma is trying to unwind. This is the first time she's been away from her husband in 10 years or something like that. So she's having a time. She's dancing, she's drinking. yeah, she, it's like a double shot of something and a mixed drink. Like she's, yeah, she's sending it. yeah. And she sort of gets, she starts flirting a little bit with this guy who's being a little,

aggressive, you know, he's coming over being like, me buy you girls drinks, let me take you dancing, whatever. But she's like just going with the flow, being friendly, that sort of thing. Obviously she gets a little too drunk. He takes advantage of her. He pulls her out into the parking lot and begins to assault her. Velma comes out and with a gun.

or Louise comes out with a gun and is like, hey, please stop. off of her. Stop raping my friend. And he's like, what are you going to do about it? And she's like, I am holding a gun. And he says, what are you going to do? Shoot me. And she's like, well, yes. Well, yes, I'm going to shoot you. Because he gives her the most fucking like, what are you going to do with that gun you're pointing at me? Like, sir, you need to

down. She has your life in her hands right now. And then she fucking pops him right in the left ventricle. yeah. Directly into the aorta of his heart. Yeah, didn't he dies instantly. Instantly. World's smallest bullet wound. She just fucking hit

No blood. Well, that's the thing. She was ready to walk away. She was already walking away and he goes and yells, suck my dick. And you know what? That's all it takes. Right. That's all it takes to make a woman's nap sometimes because I would have done the same thing. And then they go on the lam. They're like, well, they're like, no one's going to believe you, Thelma. And Louise is very pragmatic about it because as we learn later, she has had a similar situation in Texas.

The SWAMP (29:53.186)
Which is why she didn't want to drive through Texas. not want to go through Texas. she's kind like, no one's going to believe you. All those people in the bar saw you dancing with him. And even though, yes, he did assault you and yes, it is entirely true. And what we did is valid. Of course, no one is going to back us up. No one in the system, the cops, like this is not going to go the way we want it. So we need to run. Even though this film paints like Harvey Keitel, the main cop.

like very much as wanting to help. That's all he keeps saying the entire movie is I want to help you girls. I want to help you girls. I believe you. Blah, blah, blah. Just a weird, I mean, obviously it was like 1992 or whatever. Like, no, we're not calling out, calling out cops saying they're bad yet. But I do believe it was valid in continuing to reiterate Thelma.

Weez's decision to not trust him, that he does seem so, no, no, you just need to tell me the truth. You just need to show up. You just need, I just want to talk to you. That's not ever true. doesn't ever just want to talk to you. No, if a cop is trying to be your friend, don't trust them. Yeah, this movie, I think, was kind of low -key A cab, specifically with the treatment of the cop they make you get in his own trunk. Love, my God. That was like my favorite part of the movie. And then there's this scene that I think on a practical level,

could have been cut, but I'm really glad that they left it in. loved it so much. A biker, the biker, the black biker who comes around and sees the cop in the back of his truck, smoke in a joint and he blows the smoke into one of the bullet holes and he fucks off. And that doesn't necessarily add anything to the story, but I think it reiterates the general theme of like, why would you participate in a system that's set up against you? Right. Thelma and Louise, why would you?

Why would you think any of this is going to go any way than it always goes the same way? Exactly. Thank God for Louise for saying, fuck off. Victims always get blamed. Cops are always bad, right? And so it's the same thing Thelma and Louise. It's like this biker. Why would he help this cop? Cops systematically are horrendous to people like you. Why would you participate in this? Which I think is a...

The SWAMP (32:04.012)
Better message than I would have originally given this movie credit for. Whoa, hi there, Jen. Here you are to do Chocolate or Vanilla, your interim podcast segment where you say two things. We all say which one we like better. Jen, how are you today? I am pretty good. How are you guys? About the same, I would say.

Not bad. I just have to pack for a vacation and that's always a weird feeling because I want to pack my toothbrush now even though my flight's not for like four days, you know? Yeah. I'm like, no, but I need everything to be packed because I have like that kind of anxiety. That's it. The stuff you use that morning is always a pain in the ass. You know what I mean? Yeah. And I don't even use that many things, but I'm still freaking out about it, you know? But is there a theme this week?

There is. There's nothing you can't buy at CVS, by the way. That's true. They'll have Walmart's there. There's nothing you can't buy at CVS. This is actually a paid placement advertisement. CVS, you're welcome. There's nothing you can't get Our first sponsor. So there is a theme for Thelma and Louise. This is a music round and it's Girl Power.

Girl power. Love. Love. Alright. So chocolate or vanilla? Chocolate. Vanilla. Chocolate. Chocolate, vanilla, or strawberry? Chocolate. I'll say strawberry today. I'll say strawberry. So first one is...

This Girl Is On Fire, Alicia Keys or Confident, Demi Lovato? would say Alicia Keys girlbossed a little too close to the sun when she said no makeup is makeup. I don't think that was okay for her to do. It's okay for her because she's gorgeous. Yeah, well, yeah, that's fine for her, but she doesn't have to make it a thing. She doesn't have to make the clean girl aesthetic a thing. I don't like it. I don't want it. So I'll go for actually, but song wise, I will say that that is a better song. This Girl Is On

The SWAMP (34:10.457)
versus what's the demo about of someone? Confident, like what's wrong with being confident? nothing. If it's not from Camp Rock, Couldn't even tell ya. Yeah. Agreed. I'm gonna have to go Alicia Keys on this one for that same reason. Alright, I will go with Alicia Keys also.

Next one is No Scrubs, TLC, or Wannabe by Spice Girls. Wannabe by the Spice Girls. Easy. Yeah, that's like a best song ever kind of thing. it is... No Scrubs is good, but Wannabe is... It doesn't come close compared to Wannabe. All right, I'm

I'm gonna go against you guys though and say no scrubs. Alright! Next one is Run the World. Girls Run the World. Beyonce. Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. Cyndi Lauper. Or Glamorous Life by Sheila E. Glamorous Life by Sheila E. Not the Prince version. The Sheila E version. The 9 minute version. Not the 2 minute version. Yes. Love Sheila E. I don't know the Sheila E one even though I do

her I think she's iconic. I'm gonna say Run the World I guess. Yeah I'm gonna say Glamorous Life. I think that was a go -to song for us, Dara, back in the yeah. yeah. And then next one is two Cher songs, If I Could Turn Back Time or Believe.

believe. That's so hard though. You also took a lot of share I feel in the car back in the day. Maybe. I'm gonna have to go believe on this one as well. Yeah, I'll go with you guys. Next one is I Love Rock and Roll by Joan Jett or Love is a Battlefield by Pat Benatar. Love is a Battlefield by Pat Benatar.

The SWAMP (36:06.986)
Love me some Pat Benatar. I think I love rock and roll is kind of corny and I know that Joan Jett is a pioneer But it's just not for me, but my mom raised me on Pat Benatar. So yeah Yeah, definitely Next one is Rehab by Amy Winehouse or Feminine Ammonon by Chappell Rhone

Not pitting Chappell Rhone against Amy Winehouse. she just put a gun to my head. Yeah, I am. Let's split the votes. I'll say Chappell Rhone. I'll say Amy. Yeah. Yeah, because we have to the votes. It's too controversial. both have to win. Yeah, Chappell's on her way to being as iconic as Amy Winehouse, but not quite there.

She will be. know she will be. Chapel Rune to tip the scales. Next one. We are never ever ever getting back together. Taylor Swift or I Don't Give A Bleep Dua Lipa. Dua Lipa is a song called I Don't Give A Fuck.

Yeah. don't know any Dua Lipa music is for Marshalls. I'm sorry. It's great. I love for it to be on the top 40 wherever it's playing, but I don't know anything about that. But I will pick Dua Lipa. Yeah, Taylor Swift is not a girl boss. I'm sorry. Taylor Swift is a fucking monster. I think she's horrific.

So I'm gonna say Dua -Pipa as well. Dua -Pipa, because she, they're taking up the same amount of private jet gas because Dua Lipa's on vacation every weekend. Dua Lipa's flying just as much as No, think it's I think it's like known that she flies like Economy. yeah. Love, love Dua -Pipa. So I don't give a fuck. She could be on vacation 360 days out of the year. I just saw a post that said that her boyfriend, I don't know his name, but he's like a British

The SWAMP (38:09.08)
Kaelin Turner. But that he looks like the two boys from Challenger's mushed together. Which I say that's accurate. What is he in? No idea. Next one is Fighter by Xtina or Respect by Aretha. Aretha. Yeah, I'm gonna have to say Aretha on this one.

I would go with the OG Aretha too. originated girl bossing. Like, ex -Tino perfected it, but Aretha originated it. Next one is, got the beat by the go -gos or manic Monday by the bangles. We got the beat by the go -gos. I like that one.

Yeah, Manic Monday does not do it for me. It's one of those songs that kind of rubs me weird. So I'm going to go We Got the Beat. I will go with you guys. Last one. Stand Back by Stevie Nicks or Express Yourself by Madonna. Stevie Nicks, I must say.

I gotta say express yourself. Ooh, a little Madonna. Jen, you're a big Madonna fan, right? I, you know what, I wasn't a huge Madonna fan, but I have told this story that I did see her in concert and her voice was gorgeous. I bet. Like, probably the best thing I've ever heard. Like, it was amazing how good she was. I saw her at Foxboro with my work friends one summer and it was a really good concert even though I wasn't like a huge Madonna girl. and the second

thing I've heard in real life is Catherine McPhee and Waitress, Dara. Yes, Catherine McPhee who came in like fourth on American Idol then went to Broadway and was like in Waitress and Jenna and I saw her on her like last show before she signed off to do some CW show or something. Of course. was the last show of Waitress. were stopping the production, Yes. And her voice was the same. Absolutely gorgeous. Yeah, like moved to tears to be in the same room kind of thing. Yeah, for sure.

The SWAMP (40:07.431)
All right, but and that's it for girl boss music

Talk whatever now. I'm feeling more and more like a girl boss with every second that this call passes by. Jen, thank you so much for being here and for giving us some lovely options. I couldn't believe you put that gun of Amy Winehouse versus Chappellrone to our heads. That was ridiculous. Yeah, that was brutal. Truly brutal. But we love you. I love it when I say something and you guys think you're gonna say it and then I throw the second one in and you're like, no! The live react. The live react of the second plane hitting.

in the towers. no! Well thank you Jo, we love you and we'll see you next week! Alright, love you guys. Have an awesome night. Love it. But they go on the way out but they run into Brad Pitt, JD. And JD rocks the almost world. He says, Gina Davis, you have never been dicked down once in your life. Your husband does not perform.

in any capacity, any sense of the word. And he's like, and I have 0 % body fat. So let's get to romping in the streets. Did he do it for you in this? No, absolutely not. skinny. Very skinny. As I also age, I find myself finding men who look too young to be like a turn off kind of thing, which also makes me think about how like all 50 year old men only are attracted to 20 year old women. Disgusting. But like as a woman, I'm like, no, it's actually

to like as you age to sort of age out of things like I don't think 18 year olds are hot like duh.

The SWAMP (41:42.646)
You know I is hot? James Gandolfini. my God. Do know who I think is hot? Michael Madsen in this movie. Jimmy, Susan Sarandon's boyfriend. He's also a kill bill. He goes bud. Yeah. He was pretty hot. Jump scare so good. And I do, I liked this sort of development of their relationship, not to jump around too much that, Louise has this boyfriend, right? And he's sort of maybe - -term boyfriend. Long -term low commitment boyfriend. Long -term low commitment side piece yet marriage is on the table, but we don't live together. Maybe

Jessica workers, but it is like a, it's a life partner sort of situation. Best head of your life situation. Maybe involved in some like shady business. We don't really know, but she's basically like, Hey, you're going to wire me a bunch of money and then never see me again or ask questions. And he's like, well, yes. And so he does it, but instead of wiring the money, he shows up and he's like, Hey, like, Hey, by the way, I love you. And she's always kind of like hot and cold with him where she's

always like, no, I don't trust you at all. And he seems so fucking cool and down to help her that for a good part of the movie, you're like, why is she so iffy? And then he sort of hits a breaking point. He slams a bunch of stuff around, knocks a bunch of stuff off the table. He gets very frightening and you understand of like, yeah, he seems so down because this relationship is so hot and cold. I like that we got these two versions of these bad.

relationships, these two pictures of like, yes, of course, Thomas is on paper, everyone can recognize it. But Louisa's a little more like, well, why wouldn't you just be with him? Like, no, he is unpredictable and scary. And that's like how a lot of men are. Yeah, that's not a perfect man. Yeah. And I don't know. I think a lot of people don't like are sometimes willing to overlook that. It's like, no, but he is there for you. He is going to support you and help you. But like, no, it is a problem. And she is right to be like, I'm out of

Yeah, exactly. Goodbye. Because she sort of leaves her life behind and then Thelma as well is like, I can't go back. There's this moment of no return where they're like, we need to drive off the club. Yeah. Where it's the end of the road, So much dust.

The SWAMP (43:47.948)
whole lot of dust. A lot of dust in this movie. Yeah, they had to be drinking that bourbon Whithaira Whistle because I mean, you're just, you got grit in your teeth besides that. Brad Pitt's character, he comes in, he gives Gina Davis the first orgasm of her life. Ride of her life, yeah. A plot altering female orgasm. She is now like, I'm a new woman. Yeah. I'm a different person. I will never return home. Exactly. To Darryl. And she basically, he

teaches her or gives her a demonstration of like how to stick up a bank or a liquor store or whatever. And she then later performs the same speech and rob. So now they have a murder as well as a robbery. They then also kill a truck driver or they don't kill the truck driver. They blow his truck up. blow his truck up. Yeah. Yeah. Stranded. Which this, I loved being interwoven. They're basically like on the same route almost. And they keep running into this guy and he just keeps like sticking his tongue out, doing obscene shit like towards them.

the entire time and they basically get him to pull over and they're like, yeah, we're going to fuck you baby or whatever. Right. And they immediately blow up his tank full of oil.

And that's just iconic. In that series of events this time around, the thing that really stuck out to me for some reason was that Gina Davis is wearing a t -shirt that has the Confederate flag on it during this whole stretch, basically from where I didn't even notice. It's pretty subtle. like Susan Sarandin has her cute little bandana and they're both sort of in their like on the road outfits where they're like, we're a little dusty, we're a little dirty. And Gina Davis is wearing this cut off of this tank top. It's a black tank top with like a

And it's got a Confederate flag on it. And I'm like this whole series of events, I'm like, what the fuck? Like it's never addressed, but I'm like, I get that they're in the South, but also like why?

The SWAMP (45:40.926)
weird detail, didn't love that, but they, yeah, they get his ass and it's pretty nice. And that's when they're sort of like, crime is actually awesome. Fucking up men is so fun. We should actually do more of this. Now that I want to end it all, I'm really just going to go for Yeah, we might as well. Which, you know, committing to the bit, I think is another lesson that this movie can teach us is that you got to go balls to the wall. Absolutely. Correct. And then Harvey Keitel is

I think typically these two women would never have been identified or followed this quickly after the event if Harvey Keitel had not been on that team because that is a man who simply is the best in the biz. Absolutely. Anytime Harvey Keitel is on my screen, I'm like, so this crime is getting solved at a 10 times speed because it's here. The waitress is like, yeah, these two women were here, but like they don't really seem like they would have done anything. So that's it. And then that's usually where that would end. But Harvey Keitel is like, no, I'm

I'm a paid actor who's here to be the best cop. Do you think if they just went to the cabin everything would have been fine? Right, actually could have been pretty fire. I feel like that might have been the best thing to do.

It's like in retrospect, I didn't need to freak out that much, right? It's like me all the time. like, yeah, thinking back, I probably could have just finished the task at hand and it all would have been fine. And yet I'm like spiraling. This exact scenario though is like what I have stress dreams about. It's usually like I've been framed or I'm someone's accomplice in a murder.

Never ask me to help you cover up a murder. I will break so fast. I do not have the capacity to lie at such a grand level. No, we both have like the same kind of Catholic guilt where like for some reason I'm like, I'm bad at lying. I have a low pain tolerance. I just want to take a nap. Yeah. I mean, also break pretty I'm sweating so much that it's just gonna give it away so fast. Right. Yeah. All the like classic signs of like, you know, you look up into

The SWAMP (47:50.464)
when you lie or whatever, like I actually for real do that every time. I have all of the textbook signs of a liar. My body goes into that mode. I'm awful. Exactly. Yeah, no, I could never be one of those celebrities that goes on and does the like...

vanity fair, like lie detector test. Don't ask me to do are so fake though, because I remember in high school psychology class, like the first day, the first thing that we learn is that lie detector tests are not real. Like they're like, yeah, it's all based off of like your heart rate, which can mean anything or whatever. It's like, but apparently, and this is a fact that I got from May Martin may fact from the handsome podcast, love the handsome podcast, huge fans of the handsome podcast.

I cast Fortune!

Dance stir, please. I'm begging you. But apparent, I learned this from them that apparently one way to like kind of cheat a lie detector test is to your butthole. Clench your butthole really hard. Yeah. The entire time. And it'll regulate your breathing. I actually for speaking of public speaking, the same thing for public speaking. Really? If you get up and you're nervous, if you focus all of your physical energy on clenching your butt cheeks as tight together as you can.

You will actually, it'll physically regulate you, regulate all of the signs of anxiety because you're focusing so much on your butthole. On your, yeah.

The SWAMP (49:16.49)
I believe that. Thank you, Me Martin. Yeah. yeah, lie detector, lie detector texts. Lie detector tests are not real. So I simply would not engage with that, don't think. Yeah, fair enough. But they do get, Thelma and Louise, they find them and they have a car chase and they say, let's have a little smooch and let's go. And I guess originally, the very let's go girls moment. Let's go girls.

The SWAMP (49:43.566)
Yes, originally they were like, well, maybe Louise pushes Thelma out of the car to save her. That she's to be like, no, you need to, and she's going to do it. And then I believe it was Susan Sarandon who said, no, in real life, they would kiss each other on the lips and then drive off the cliff together. And Ridley Scott was like, yeah, okay.

sure that I guess that she was right yeah and she was correct for that and that's why this movie is so iconic if she had saved her I think this movie that takes an entire star yeah entire star down yeah it just it just doesn't make sense

But this is yeah, you go down with your ship. That is your girl. Right. Truly ride or die. Yeah. Yeah. And then we want to get into our regularly scheduled program for the episode. I feel like fuck Mary Kill. Harvey Keitel and then Thelma Louise Harvey Keitel. We don't want to know Jimmy, you know, Michael Manson, no, no, Darryl. We do know Darryl. Darryl. The actor plays Darryl. Christopher McDonald is the voice of Kent Mansley.

the FBI agent in the Iron Giant. Really? Yeah, a little connect from - From two weeks ago, as I was doing my obligatory IMDB scroll, like why does this name look really familiar? I'm like, because two weeks ago we covered Iron Giant. So

little connection there. No, leaving him out. Yeah, I Thelma Louise, Harvey Keitel. Well, I mean, I don't know. Should we do Brad Pitt? Brad Pitt? Because we're obviously going to kill him. we're going to kill Harvey Keitel. So let's put Brad Pitt in. Okay, I'm also going to kill Brad Pitt, obviously. Yeah. Because he's a little thief, too. He's a little thieving little bastard. Yeah. I guess just doing what he's got to do to get by.

The SWAMP (51:29.464)
mean, of course he's incredibly charming, I unfortunately.

don't have a great ability to separate people from like actors and characters from their real selves. Brad Pitt Brad shit Brad shit is awful. So I'm always just like, yeah, you're just like not chill and they don't like you anymore. And I just like, can't really respect like, yeah, I don't like men that choke their wives. Right? Yeah. That's like not chill. So I'm going to kill him. But also because his character is just like, don't care. And then I'm digging that good. I'm obviously going to marry Louise.

because I do need that kind of structure and I want to share a closet with her. I just loved her style. What do they call her? her uppity hairdo? They're like her little tight uppity hairdo. Yeah, like that. yeah, yeah. Or her snatch me like that. I want her to boss me around. Right. You tell me what to do, mama, and I'm doing it. And then I'm going yeah, I'm going to fuck Gina Davis instead of Brad Pitt. Well, yeah, she's never gotten her pussy ate. Right. So I mean, you're really going to rock her world no matter

She's just six feet tall. Like I just want her to kick me in stomach. You're a climber. I'm like, fully have her thigh. She's a foot taller than me. Yeah. She could carry you around on her hip like your baby. my God. I would love that. Yeah. I think I'm going to agree with you on both of those fronts.

Yeah, I don't like how flighty and kind of spacey Thelma is. I think we would have a lovely, fun night together. I would introduce her to pickleback shots. She would love a pickleback Rest in peace, Thelma. You would have loved pickleback shots. And yeah, Louise, I will do anything for her on my knees. Rest in peace, Louise. You would have loved Venmo.

The SWAMP (53:20.378)
Truly. And then what are going to eat and drink with this movie? So I just ripped straight from the film, the opening scene where we're sort of introduced to Thelma. She's talking on the phone to Louise, who's working in the diner. And she keeps walking over to the freezer, putting the chocolate bar she's eating into the freezer, closing the door, continuing her phone conversation. And then she continues to go back and pull the bar out of the freezer, take a bite and put it back in. love it.

fucking funny and then like half an hour later she's in the car and she pulls out another chocolate bar that's like half -eaten and I'm like bitch is this the same chocolate bar? I hope so. Is this the same chocolate bar you've just been like casually munching on? Queenie. Love. So I think you put some candy bars in the freezer one of the most superior ways to eat like a twix or snickers. What's your ideal frozen one? I like I like a frozen. And put it in the freezer or just the fridge? I like the freezer sometimes. I like the freezer for Reese's. Reese's it gets

almost hard. Yeah. You can kind of gnaw on it because I like I'm kind like a dog that needs to eat off of one of those. Like rawhide.

We're like munching on it till it gets soft and it's like a... It's like one of those disgusts, it's like a rag almost. No, like dogs have to eat off of those plates that like make them be slower. Like I need to like freeze my candy bar so that I like gnaw on it like over the course of you know 10 minutes rather than like inhaling it. Yeah, sure. Yeah, I do also have a Girl Scout cookie in the freezer. That's pretty supreme. But I think yeah, just...

A classic, like a sneaker. I love the ice cream sneakers that they make. I like the Twix ones. Very good. But just a classic, think, yeah, a Twix bar in the freezer. So good. See, the freezer is a little much for me. I like the fridge. Well, I just don't. I definitely chipped enough teeth and I've had enough fillings. I don't need to have any more dental problems. And if I start gnawing on something out of the freezer, if I start chomping, who's to say what happens next? Are you an ice chewer?

The SWAMP (55:22.806)
Yes. I, and it's gotta be.

the right size though. Like nugget ice is supreme. Nugget ice is supreme obviously, like if it's a cube of ice, I'm talking like it's gotta be like halfway melted, you know? Yeah. I think I've more recently become a nice chewer. And then I think you should have a wild turkey nip. Just one? No, I mean, I think you should have five or six. mean, you should do it as they do it, but she. Yeah, as she's drinking. Yeah. I love she's adding them to her order at one point. He's like, do you just want the big bottle? And she's like, no.

She's like, want nips. She's right. Because she's on the lam. Of course she's on the lam. So I wild turkey nips in a frozen candy bar. think it's perfect. I think that's, yeah, pretty good. What about you? I... The diner scenes in this really stuck out to me. And I would just love... I was thinking about what I would love to feed Louise after, like, a long...

day or night on the road. I want her to sit down with steak and eggs and a big giant hash brown. So I think you do that. Some real like Southern, you know, Texas. The same Texas. Yeah. Sort of food. And then

She was also drinking the things she wanted when they got to the Roadhouse bar. Margarita. Margarita. And I think you give her a spicy margarita. Yeah. With a little tahini rim. And I think she'd eat that shit up. And you know what? I think that sounds like an ideal. Yeah. Yeah. We're having our first date at two in the morning at the diner because we're on the lamb. Yeah. We're on the lamb. So that's what you do when you're on the lamb. They meet Brad Pitt. He's like, my God, no way.

The SWAMP (57:11.227)
That's crazy. Let's link up. And then what are you going to watch after this? So like low key not to just be like a shameless self plug for our own podcast for next week's episode. I also thought the same thing. I for real think you should watch Raising Arizona because this movie is kind of Looney Tunes -y. Yeah.

That movie is legit a Roadrunner comic, right? So I think it's the vague Looney Tunes -y kind of we're in the desert energy of this movie is like that multiplied by a million in Raising Arizona. Absolutely. So yeah, I do think you should watch that. Yeah. I'm also going to go for one that is two girls committing crime. One

The SWAMP (57:54.195)
Two girls committing crime out in the desert. I don't even say love life bleeding. I thought you were saying driveway dolls. No, I do love, but they didn't really commit any crimes. That's another. That's also the Cohen brothers, right? It is another Cohen brothers. Yeah, they stay. They stay making those bitches are in the desert. They love sand. They love dust. That's for sure. Those Cohen brothers love a little bit of dust. But yeah, love is waiting is now streaming on HBO Max.

You can watch it and you can also listen to our bonus episode about love lies, love lies bleeding. my God, so we have giant women, not to spoil.

Love Me a Giant Woman. Yeah, Love, Lies, Bleeding. That's a really good... Yeah, Doing Crime in the Desert. You guys love each other. Kind of getting away with it. Yeah. Yeah, I would say if you like gay movies, Kristen Stewart or Thelma and Louise, you definitely should go watch Love, Lies, Bleeding over on HBO Max. We both really enjoyed it. I think also it's holding men accountable. Absolutely. Holding Ed Harris accountable. Exactly. Yeah. And enough interlocking themes.

I think that's a good Pulling Dave Franco accountable. Yeah. Really important stuff. Yeah, absolutely. then what are you gonna give this out of 10? Eight. I'm gonna give it an eight. Yeah, think... Strong eight. It's textbook, solid. Do I revisit it all the time? No. No, but I would certainly watch it again. Am I happy when it's on? Yes. Thumbnail Weez in the scene where they shoot that guy's truck. Yeah, they're watching over us right now. Are in my living room. I do have them.

Just because you you need a little Gina Davis in the physical space always. thank you all for listening so much. This ends Good Movies Month but we're moving on

Yeah, I haven't updated that in two plus years. We also have an email address if you just want to send us a good old fashioned business email. Yeah, please. We love to get an email. We love you all.
