We're Still Not Over Ariana and Cynthia's Oscars Performance!

Awards season culminates with our passionate breakdown of the 2024 Oscars! We can't stop rewatching Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo's opening medley. Their journey from "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" through "Home" and finally "Defying Gravity" created a perfect tribute to the evolution of Oz stories throughout entertainment history.

Our weekend adventures take center stage as we compare experiences at two very different line dancing venues. We discover this isn't just casual fun – it's a dedicated culture where regulars memorize specific routines for their favorite songs. Meanwhile, Allison begins a new fitness journey, swapping CrossFit for hot yoga.

Intro and Awards Season Woes

Speaker 1 0:00

Bless you.

Speaker 2 0:01

God bless you. Whoa Beautiful. It wasn't a sneeze, it was a burp.

Speaker 1 0:07

Oh, you had a little bubble held there in your throat. I sure did. I love that you support the. What are those brothers?

Speaker 2 0:14

The Paul brothers. I wanted a Lonnie New, and this was all that was left, except for Red Bull, which ew, although there was one million flavors of Red Bull there.

Speaker 1 0:26

They never stopped coming out with them. I used to love the blue one.

Speaker 2 0:29

I couldn't believe how many. It was a whole case just of so many different colors.

Speaker 1 0:34

Well, that's why they don't have a Lonnie. They got all the Red Bulls.

Speaker 2 0:36

I freaking guess. Welcome back to the alas podcast with allison and alex.

Speaker 1 0:55

I'm allison hey, I'm alex and it's the alas podcast.

Speaker 2 0:59

Yep, and I don't know why. I don't think I'll ever not be awkward and that's okay. That can be my thing.

Speaker 1 1:06

So here's the always the bummer to this at us recording on Mondays, or like us releasing our episodes on Mondays.

Speaker 2 1:12

Yeah, is that like?

Speaker 1 1:14

every award show is always on a Sunday.

Speaker 2 1:16

Yeah, are we done. Now, though, are the Oscars the end, oh?

Speaker 1 1:21

okay. Are the Oscars the end?

Speaker 2 1:22

No, we've had SAG Is it the end yeah. We've had Emmys.

Speaker 1 1:29

BAFTAs.

Speaker 2 1:29

We've had Grammys.

Speaker 1 1:31

We've had the Brit Awards, of course, can't forget those. We covered those. I feel like it's the end. It might be the end. Well, it's still. It's just like now we're talking about it, but it was last week.

Speaker 2 1:44

Yeah.

Speaker 1 1:44

But like.

Speaker 2 1:46

I mean sound off in the comments.

Speaker 1 1:48

I don't know, we would have to do an emergency, we would have to change our release date. For that week or just in life or no, just in general, we would have to move, we could do like live streams I have thought about that too, like try one at some award show or something. Yeah.

Speaker 1 2:05

We could try for the Met Gala and watch the carpet and everything and do a little commentary during the I don't think it would necessarily need to be live, but we just record ourselves watching it and immediately edit and put out the episode.

Speaker 2 2:19

Yeah.

Speaker 1 2:20

Could do that.

Speaker 2 2:20

Yeah.

Speaker 1 2:21

Either way, I'm going to talk about the Oscars.

Speaker 2 2:24

Yeah, we have to. I don't know what to do about it.

Speaker 1 2:26

First of, all, I would like to say that I held true to the rumors that there was going to be some sort of a Wicked medley.

Speaker 2 2:32

Oh, you did. You said that.

Speaker 1 2:33

Even though they were both like what are you?

Speaker 2 2:35

talking about. Well, because I didn't think that there was musical songs.

Speaker 1 2:40

Well, there wasn't really.

Speaker 2 2:41

There was two.

Speaker 1 2:41

There was three.

Speaker 2 2:44

We have Wicked or we had the opener.

Speaker 1 2:47

Yeah, the opening.

Speaker 2 2:48

The James Bond tribute, oh, queen Latifah, which I can't wait to talk about, that Wow.

Speaker 1 2:53

Okay, so let's just breeze through it.

Speaker 2 2:55

Okay, breeze. Well, I mean I just people are.

Speaker 1 2:58

I don't know. Listen, I have watched the openings of the Oscars now at least eight times. Did watched the openings of the Oscars now at least eight times.

Speaker 2 3:04

Did you cry?

Speaker 1 3:05

So much.

Speaker 2 3:06

So did I, and I didn't think I would.

Speaker 1 3:09

I wasn't even sure if Wicked was going to be sung, but just Ariana singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow.

Speaker 2 3:13

Yeah, and she's singing it in her good voice. She's singing it in her Ari voice, yeah.

Speaker 1 3:18

And the dress with the ruby slipper on the back.

Speaker 2 3:25

You mean she sung it in her ari voice as in, like her uninfected singer?

Speaker 1 3:27

oh, I thought she didn't sing it.

Speaker 2 3:28

Oh no, that was her pop vocals I thought that it was more reserved than that there there obviously it came through. It wasn't glinda.

Speaker 1 3:35

I thought it was her previous musical theater voice oh, I just meant it sounded like ari, not glinda yes, I agree.

Speaker 2 3:43

I just think it sounded like if you go back and listen to her singing. Except for that one time she sang something wicked at some uh event and it was very the wizard and I at the wicked and it was very poppy it was not good. That's why I was scared for her to be glinda.

Speaker 1 4:01

No, back in the day before that, her broadway voice I feel like that was this was more of that than her full pop like you know what's funny about this real quick is that no one's like you know how her album the one that just came out no sweetener no, y'all it's I don't know the names of the albums, to be really honest I love the way, the one where she has the song, the cover of popular and no one's like talked about that like I didn't know that it existed duet where they take the course of popular and she, like, reimagines it and it's, but it's the course of popular I've never heard that in my life really no and the music video is like her and this guy end up like killing all these people at a dinner party. What yeah?

Speaker 2 4:47

No, no one's talking about it and I didn't know about it.

Speaker 1 4:49

And I'm like wait, why has no one talked about this? Like I loved that song, you should listen to it.

Speaker 2 4:54

I will, I'll look it up.

Speaker 1 4:56

So that was amazing. And then Cynthia, I was oh, it's gonna be a wizard of oz to the whiz, then they are gonna do wicked. Yeah, I was like they're doing all of the like, the iterations of how this has progressed.

Speaker 2 5:07

I haven't seen the whiz since I was very young, so I didn't really. I heard the song and I was like I feel like I've heard this song before, but I don't know the words.

Speaker 2 5:15

I'm assuming it's from the whiz what's crazy is we got two songs from the whiz, yeah oh my gosh, yeah, um, so if you guys didn't watch, which you might not have, so that's fine. The show opened with Ariana and Cynthia singing. Ariana sang Somewhere Over the Rainbow, cynthia sang what's the name of the song Home, home from the Wiz. And then they sang Defying Gravity, and I didn't start crying until Defying Gravity, for some reason.

Speaker 1 5:41

I started like tearing up during Somewhere Over the Rainbow, and then, when I realized what was happening, when, when she turned her and went, yeah, it's like, oh God, here we go.

Speaker 2 5:52

Yeah, but I and Cynthia saying effortlessly so it was so beautiful, it was fully live right. Because, later on we get some unlive yeah. It was fully, not on a live, but not live vocals it was live as hell. But yeah, it sounded just wondrous.

Speaker 1 6:09

Oh, my God, I was so. It was so good, it was so good.

Speaker 2 6:12

Yeah, they looked great.

Speaker 1 6:15

They looked amazing. And that's all and then honestly like the show for me in general Was boring, Cringy.

Speaker 2 6:25

Like there was so many uncomfortable moments.

Speaker 1 6:28

So many uncomfortable moments that I was like looking away?

Speaker 2 6:31

Do we go in order or do we cause? I wrote things in order as they happened, but there is one part that we have to talk about that was cringy Before you get to that, and I know what it's going to be.

Speaker 1 6:41

It's Amelia Perez when she sang the song.

Speaker 2 6:42

Oh, my God, yes.

Speaker 1 6:51

I think in general, conan o'brien not a great host, which is weird because, like his, jokes were not landing every like his whole monologue wasn't landing.

Speaker 2 6:55

Actually there were some jokes that I I didn't laugh lol, but I was like that's kind of like funny his, not his.

Speaker 1 7:02

So what's? Here's how deep I am in the taylor verse, so he did his like I don't want to waste time, dance number, which, whatever, that was a waste of time, but I reckon I was like that's one of taylor swift's dancers was one of his dancers oh, wow and then, um, nick paulie, who's the guy that did the dancing deadpool in the movie. I was like that looks, I wonder if that's him. And and I looked and it is him which is like just a guy I follow on Instagram.

Speaker 2 7:27

Yeah.

Speaker 1 7:27

Got to portray that character and it was like a funny number, but it's like why? Yeah, I mean we got wicked in the opening like just move on with the show. Yeah, three and a half three hour and 45 minute over other comedians, I still I want the amy poehler, oh, I mean male comedians, oh, I don't know.

Awkward Oscar Moments and Winners

Speaker 2 7:50

Jimmy fallon is really good, so I like jimmy, but jimmy kimmel is a note for me. I feel like I would like I like conan over jimmy kimmel. Yeah, and I don't know who else. Billy, they should have had billy crystal, do it. They brought him out and they made a joke about it. Then like let's, because he was pretty like I, like he looked. First of all. He looks so good.

Speaker 1 8:07

He looks better than he did on the shoot that I did with him like eight years ago so yeah, something's going on and meg ryan looked. I know that's like later but she looked so okay, go back, go back.

Speaker 2 8:17

Awkward moments so the next thing that I have down is the james bond tribute. I know that things happened in between there, but nothing really.

Speaker 1 8:23

You've seen the substance now, right I have not.

Speaker 2 8:25

I didn't get to it because at both times that we were like we could watch the substance tonight. Then we we got to nighttime and it was.

Speaker 1 8:35

We were both so tired and so all the spoilers of what she looks like. Were you like what the?

Speaker 2 8:41

no, I mean, I hadn't seen her yet, but I knew from other things people saying that she gets decrepit at some point decrepit understatement so I think the the visuals that I saw does it get worse than that.

Speaker 1 8:57

Okay, well, I'm not totally spoiled no, but the girl for the james bond number, like she was doing that character in the beginning.

Speaker 2 9:05

I was confused as to is she in a James Bond movie also?

Speaker 1 9:09

Or is it just because I don't know if that's like a nod to like, maybe she's in the new series with Florence Pugh, but then they haven't announced who James Bond is yet.

Speaker 2 9:15

Okay Cause I was like why is she doing? Why is she dancing?

Speaker 1 9:20

It was good, she was good, but that was from. Like that's what she does in the substance okay she's like this dancer that like okay, then it does make more sense there's a strange tie-in in that regard, but I thought when they, when it was the three of them, like one, when I saw ray start singing yeah, bless you, oh my god thank you. When I saw ray start singing, I was like, oh, they're gonna give us a little of their new song. They didn't't.

Speaker 2 9:43

Oh yeah, that was weird, and I thought there was. I thought Billie was going to come out. I did too, because they didn't sing her song.

Speaker 1 9:50

They didn't sing her song, but then Ray sang Adele's song.

Speaker 2 9:53

Yes. But I was like oh, it's also like why didn't Adele sing True? She might turn, then maybe the three of them are about to sing their new single too. Yeah, they didn't. So lisa was amazing, but not live. No, not a single note was live, no, live, which that's very k-pop too, like I don't. I feel like a lot of k-pop artists don't sing performer super live. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. I've had a very lisa filled week because wait, had I gone to her thing, what?

Speaker 2 10:26

thing, okay, so you would know. So after we get to oscar's talk, I will talk about that. But I've had just a lisa filled week with watching white lotus and then, oh, I went to an event and then this event. So yeah, it was margaret qualley opened, then it went to l Lisa singing and then Doja Cat, which she looked great.

Speaker 1 10:48

Sounded great.

Speaker 2 10:48

And Ray sounded amazing, she's incredible. I think that she's. I'm glad that she's getting recognition now, Cause I feel like she's been pretty not as well known A little bit. Yeah, Um so wow, so good Then. Um so wow so good then, um I wrote down. We got to best supporting actress zoe saldano. One and a little unhinged a little bit kind of like the yes, the screaming of the mommy was a lot and I, I don't know, I feel it lot.

Speaker 2 11:23

I feel bad, but it was cringy. Sorry, girly, it's okay and everyone can be happy that their mom is there with them. Yeah, that was amazing, but the screaming she like she scrimped.

Speaker 1 11:36

Yeah, she was beside herself, yeah.

Speaker 2 11:41

Which I'm so happy for her. I teared up, like I had tears in my eyes, like it was obviously very emotional and I was very happy for her, but I just couldn't stop thinking of the mommy of it all. Yeah so, but yeah, amazing speech, beautiful, loved, uh then. And then now we're at best original song where they sang, sang, amelia Perez, amelia Perez.

Speaker 1 12:09

Amelia Perez. Yes, they sang and it didn't stop.

Speaker 2 12:13

I thought if you, if you just sing, you know two, three words as a send off, I feel like I would have been like fine. She didn't stop, that's fine. It didn't stop. It went on for like 15 seconds it was bad, it was really weird.

Speaker 1 12:28

I had to look away. I had to look away multiple times during the show.

Speaker 2 12:32

What were other times?

Speaker 1 12:33

I'm trying to remember the long speech that was really hard for me to watch. Oh, the couple that won best foreign feature film.

Speaker 2 12:41

And she couldn't read.

Speaker 1 12:45

He was like no, that's my section.

Speaker 2 12:46

She was like no, that's my section. I actually didn't. I, it didn't bother me that much because they were foreign and they were like we got here like three hours ago and I feel that they were very, um, frazzled, frazzled, so I didn't think too hard about it, but but it was, it was, it was funny and they could have just been like hey, one of us take it.

Speaker 1 13:09

And clearly not her Right. No, not her.

Speaker 2 13:12

But yeah, and then uh, Queen Latifah singing Eason down the road.

Speaker 1 13:18

Wow, yep.

Speaker 2 13:21

Somewhere in here I missed um writing down that uh best supporting actor was Kieran Culkin.

Speaker 1 13:30

That was uncomfortable as well.

Speaker 2 13:32

And I didn't. I missed it. So I must cause I admittedly I did fast forward through some things. I watched the beginning live and then I had to go to dinner so I uh paused, and so then this morning I finished it and I was. I was going forward on a few things, but good for him.

Speaker 1 13:53

Yeah.

Speaker 2 13:53

So, yeah, he's on down the road. It was a tribute to Quincy Jones, which they also did, the tribute at the Grammys, which was also long, but this wasn't long, no it wasn't. And I thought I mean long. But this wasn't long. No, it wasn't, and I thought I mean anytime I get to see queen latifah perform I'm very happy, so good sounded so good, looked beautiful um.

Speaker 1 14:13

I'm always happy to hear her hasn't aged, looks the same, just always looks she's incredible.

Speaker 2 14:18

I'm so yeah. Uh, the dancing was really fun. I need to look up who the choreographer was, because I really enjoyed the choreography and I kept looking to see if I recognize anyone.

Speaker 1 14:28

I never do no, I did that's who you saw no, no, he was in the opening number who'd you see in that? No, no, I just I mean, like you said, I never recognized, but I did oh, you did.

Speaker 2 14:38

Yes, in general earlier in the show so, then, best actress went to mikey madison, and I've heard some controversy over this same well, anora swept the oscars in a way I was not expecting I know because they didn't sweep in the other shows, they got, they won some awards she won the bafta for best actress I didn't know that it was a fully independent film.

Speaker 2 14:59

They only it took like. They made it for like six million dollars something yeah, it's really expensive. So as far as, movies go that's yeah Exciting for them. I just can't ever see her as anything other than the yeah Scream killer.

Speaker 1 15:14

I can't, but I see her first as, once upon a time in Hollywood, crazy Manson follower. That like it's smashed.

Speaker 2 15:19

Yeah, so I never finished that movie but I do remember I didn't get to the Manson part of the film, so I do after. I don't think I recognized her then and then once I saw, cause she was a bigger part in Scream, so her face sticks out to me more in that, and then I think I saw um once upon a time after I had seen.

Speaker 2 15:42

Scream. Uh, so that's why I associate her more with Scream. But her speech she was such a sweetie Like I didn't. I didn't picture her being just so tiny and reserved and like soft-spoken and sweet, so I thought that that was really cute and sweet.

Speaker 1 16:02

Demi didn't really react.

Speaker 2 16:04

I know I thought for sure she was going to win. Everyone did that. That was really cute and sweet. Demi didn't really react. I know it's. I thought for sure she was going to win, or, um, just I thought that Anora would have been last. Like I could have seen Cynthia when, even though she didn't win for other things, I could have seen it, but I thought for sure Demi was going to win.

Speaker 1 16:22

I feel like sidebar, that maybe the wicked they'll like I'll get their props when the second one comes out, Cause do you think that's?

Speaker 2 16:29

intentional that the academies like we'll get to them next time, or was it just not an impactful movie.

Speaker 1 16:37

It could be strategy.

Speaker 2 16:37

It could be that because it's like didn't they only win for what they won? Three?

Speaker 1 16:42

categories three, but I don't remember what they all were.

Speaker 2 16:45

I'll look it up I meant to bring up a full list.

Speaker 1 16:49

I do think they will get something for good, just because I think it will, in the voters' minds, be like wow, they have done the work they did all the press for movie one they put in the work they performed at the Oscars. Now let's give them something. I also wonder if there's going to be a new original song in the second Wicked so that they can get a song nom. Oh, something I hadn't considered until thinking about how they don't get to have a song nominated.

Speaker 2 17:18

What, okay? Do they actually win this many, or is this what they were?

Speaker 1 17:23

They were nominated for 10.

Speaker 2 17:25

Oh, so this is what they were nominated for.

Speaker 1 17:30

They won three Costume Production.

Speaker 2 17:35

Production design is what I thought.

Speaker 1 17:36

Production design costume the first black man to win costume design was for. Wicked.

Speaker 2 17:41

Okay.

Speaker 1 17:42

And something else.

Speaker 2 17:43

There was one other thing Best production design.

Speaker 1 17:45

Hair and makeup. Oh, some of these are names that I don't know which like of course they had to win, that they built shiz yeah.

Speaker 2 17:53

And it looked incredible. So this must be a name of something, name of someone that I don't know, because what do you mean? I don, I'm only seeing the word Wicked twice. So whatever else, oh no, that was production design.

Speaker 1 18:08

Hey Siri. What awards did Wicked win at the Academy Awards?

Speaker 2 18:14

Never mind.

Speaker 1 18:15

I can show them if you ask again.

Speaker 2 18:19

Or maybe these aren't all the awards.

Speaker 1 18:23

I just saw it together. It was like Wicked winner of three Academy Awards.

Speaker 2 18:26

So anyway, Maybe it might just be someone's name, and I'm not seeing the word Wicked, so I'm unsure.

Speaker 1 18:34

Oh, like they won for this, yes.

Speaker 2 18:41

So best original score was the Brutalist. Is that what we thought?

Speaker 1 18:51

I mean again, I haven't seen it. So you saw that brutalist was going to like sweep the oscars, which is why I kind of thought it would be that way and it didn't mean that way.

Speaker 2 18:56

It didn't which was wild yes, so then best uh actor was um. What's his name? Adrian brody.

Speaker 1 19:09

Yeah, for the brutalist did you hear that they like used ai to enhance his accent in that that movie in the edit? No, but that should be counted against him well, I just think it should be known yeah, well, I mean it is known I, but it's not like talked about. Oh his his speech was annoying as hell. It was like dude, go.

Speaker 2 19:30

They've tried to play you off twice yeah, I saw people being annoyed by that as well, so best original song went to um amelia perez, and I saw some annoyance at that as well that's the woman that.

Speaker 1 19:47

That's what we were talking about.

Speaker 2 19:50

Oh sorry, yes, I just was. I'm now. I'm going back down the list to see what I forgot. Any big ones that I forgot to say. Original screenplay went to a Nora.

Speaker 1 19:59

Did Wicked win hair and makeup? That might've been what it was.

Speaker 2 20:02

No, the substance.

Speaker 1 20:04

Oh right.

Speaker 2 20:04

Makeup and hairstyling. That was good, though Best sound went to Dune, which, like honestly, I think we said that right.

Speaker 1 20:10

We were like it's probably going to be something like that.

Speaker 2 20:14

So yeah, and then we got to. I said, yeah, meg Ryan and Billy Crystal looked great, and then that was the end. I thought that it was kind of a boring. It was this year's award shows were kind of a boring show. It was this year's award shows were kind of boring.

Speaker 1 20:30

Is that because the movies were kind of boring. No, no, I mean like Grammys were kind of boring, like I don't feel like there was.

Speaker 2 20:34

Why do we?

Speaker 1 20:34

think that. Why do we think they were like that this year? I don't know, maybe just recovering from the strike is still a thing. No, it can't be.

Speaker 2 20:42

Yeah, no, no one should have hosted the oscar, who always does an amazing job. Who and it's always funny neil patrick harris. Every time you host the oscars, it's perfect, he's a good host. And then they can do more musical things, because he's actually good at that, correct, not like funny, yeah. So yeah, that is the oscars we finally got here, I'm exhausted about it for so I'm exhausted by award season, I'm.

Speaker 1 21:06

If it is really over, I think the next thing we have to look forward to is, like the vmas, and that's just fun, that's just fun.

Speaker 2 21:12

Yeah, that's just a fun time, I do think miley's no eyebrow look was a little yeah work girl, though work it get it. So I, yeah, we're done. But speaking of we're done, what was I gonna say? I'm trying to look at my notes and I'm I wrote something down that's. I don't know what I'm trying to say, but we didn't get to talk last time, uh, because we had pre-recorded about michelle trachtenberg passing away have we learned anything new since then?

Speaker 1 21:47

I have not, but that was pretty shocking. I mean she looked she had had a liver transplant pretty recently.

Speaker 2 21:54

Yeah, but she hadn't been public about why she needed a liver transplant right, but you could tell she looked different.

Speaker 1 22:02

Something was different about her look Kind of emaciated.

Speaker 2 22:06

Yeah, looking like pretty jaundiced.

Speaker 1 22:08

Yeah.

Speaker 2 22:08

Like. So it makes sense that she needed that, but she wasn't public about whatever her illness was, mm-hmm, so Nothing new.

Speaker 2 22:22

No, I'm trying to. I see a headline that says cause of death revealed but mystery remains, so it's probably telling us nothing, but I'll look. Cause of death and manner of death have officially been released. The medical examiner of New York City ruled the cause of death as undetermined. Okay, cool, but a lot of the speculation was that her the liver was rejected, like her body had rejected the liver, which is, I mean, I think, a big thing that happens. Yeah, her family declined an autopsy, so I guess we won't know, but wouldn't, would they just say, like organ failure or something. I'm not sure 39, 39.

Speaker 2 23:05

Harry, uh, harriet, the spy gossip girl, ice princess, ice princess wow the vampire slayer yes, a lot of uh her co-stars put out, yeah, um statements which also blake lively did, which was very brave of her and time like such as this yeah, also Gene Hackman passed away, that was wild his whole family right, or was that someone else? It was him and his wife and a dog, but two dogs survived which is interesting, but I wonder where they were, because the initial thought was that they died from carbon monoxide poisoning.

Speaker 1 23:48

She was like face down in the bathroom with a bunch of pills.

Speaker 2 23:52

Oh, and he was in like a laundry room or something. Oh, so that right. Where the pill like was it a bunch of pills or was it like she could have been like taking her medication and she passed out.

Speaker 1 24:05

But why would she have passed out Cause? Carbon monoxide kills you in your sleep.

Speaker 2 24:09

Well, if you're awake, then you would just pass out.

Speaker 1 24:12

No, you would get sick. Like you would start getting sick.

Speaker 2 24:14

Oh, I didn't.

Speaker 1 24:14

Carbon monoxide poisoning. When it hits you first, you're like barfy and like headache and dizzy. But if you're asleep and it hits you, you just like fall asleep, you just don't wake up.

Speaker 2 24:24

Yes, I know my sister. When she was young, before I was born, and my mom, there was like a carbon monoxide leak in our house and my sister woke up. She woke up and was sick and she went and woke up my mom and I think they called my grandpa or something and he like told them to get out of the house and so they ended up being fine, but like definitely could have.

Speaker 1 24:43

I might be wrong about Gene Hackman, though, I thought I read something that was like very weird. She was like kind of mummified what Her hands were mummified.

Speaker 2 24:54

Like she wrapped, like they were wrapped In gauze.

Speaker 1 24:57

No, like they're starting to mummify. I'm not trying to mummify. She was actively trying to mummify herself. I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 25:09

I'm really sorry. I'm all respect, but I definitely thought you meant she was like her hands are wrapped in gauze. Um, I don't know. I'm trying to see if there's any new headlines from the world. Uh oh, they tested negative for carbon monoxide and no signs of blunt force trauma.

Speaker 1 25:36

Is it a duo-suo?

Speaker 2 25:38

Yeah, but why wouldn't they be together? If you're going to do that, hold hands. Yeah, I don't know, I don't know, I guess we don't know. I don't know. Uh, I guess I guess we don't know right now, but I am interested and if you guys have never seen the movie Hoosiers, you should watch it.

Speaker 1 25:58

Hometown pride.

Speaker 2 25:58

Hometown pride. It's not my hometown but it is. It is adjacent. I can't get too into it, but the here let me get into it there's something about the, the.

Line Dancing Adventures

Speaker 2 26:11

The school that it's framed after is called mylon high school, which is a very small school, and the game that they are in in the movie that's like the pivotal game they were actually playing marion I believe in, like real life, that they're marrying it after, but in the movie they make it a different. Okay, they, they have different names of schools, I see. So I don't know. Just a little side note you should go watch it. Sports, go hoosiers well, I went. Did you get into this weekend?

Speaker 1 26:42

okay, I went to our friend emily had her birthday oh yeah, and it was at this like country bar him. I know you're listening um, this country bar hey, I know you're listening this country bar in Long Beach. Let me just say First of all, emily gets there and she's like I really was expecting a younger crowd. The younger crowd did eventually show up.

Speaker 2 26:59

Okay, had she been there before.

Speaker 1 27:04

No, but Brian apparently used to go there a lot in his college years, and so that's how he knew about it a lot in his college years, and so that's how he knew about it. Okay, it is. So. First of all, you know those like videos, those K K pop videos, dance videos where they're just are playing music in a park, and then, if the people know how the dance goes, they just like run on and do it. Yes, that is what line dancing is.

Speaker 2 27:19

Yes, I didn't realize. Yes, I have a side. I could not. I had other plans that had already been planned before this, so I couldn't go. But three days prior I went to a different line dancing place, so I'll talk about that after.

Speaker 1 27:39

But it was like they gave a lesson for one dance at 8 pm and we were all still getting drinks and stuff.

Speaker 2 27:41

So we didn't get to participate.

Speaker 1 27:42

And then they have a floor where, if you know it, you can dance on that floor. If you just want to fuck around, you can go to this floor. Yeah, and so we were just like on the fuck around floor because we could not, we did not learn and could not catch on to them. There was a lot of like gulf of america, hats and stuff like that. Like it was that vibe okay of people, um.

Speaker 1 28:02

And then okay, so our emily's friend trish, who I was at the bacheloret of this, she was like fuck it, I'm gonna do the electric slide. A song comes on, she starts doing the electric slide. The gen zers, who have no idea what the electric slide is, jump in and start like watching her to learn it. She gets a whole floor of people doing the electric slide and we're just like, oh, my god, you could have done all the.

Speaker 2 28:25

The ones know the Cupid Shuffle.

Speaker 1 28:28

I was hoping for the Hoedown Throwdown, but it didn't come on.

Speaker 2 28:31

You could have just done the dance, though, cotton Eye.

Speaker 1 28:33

Joe, I was ready.

Speaker 2 28:34

I don't know that one, really no, I just know the song, I don't know the dance.

Speaker 1 28:38

There's a dance. What's the?

Speaker 2 28:39

other one. I'm thinking of the Cha-Cha Slide and the Cupid cupid shovel cha-cha side cupid shovel.

Speaker 1 28:51

There's a third one that's like whipping nene. Yes, sorry you can go. It was a. It was a cute little time. It was a. It was like a cash, only kind of place yeah huge um and in long beach, but it was really fun and emily had a good time and good.

Speaker 2 29:02

The place that I went was on the east side and stud country no, it was called um. It started in h was it more gay?

Speaker 2 29:11

this one, yes it was more gay. I don't know what it was called. I can get it to you later, I can put it in. I can put it in the description, but it started with an h and it was more gay. The same thing they taught a dance at 8, 30 one, and we did it once and I was like, oh, they'll probably throw it in, like in, you know, half hour, 45 minutes, so that we can do it again. Didn't ever happen.

Speaker 1 29:38

They did it this place. It was like 45 minutes doesn't that make sense?

Speaker 2 29:41

yeah, like we did it, we taught it, we did it once full out with the music, and then they were like okay, and they moved on and I was like I can't when it when it comes back on.

Speaker 2 29:52

I'm going to run out and didn't did not do it, so I was like, well, that's kind of silly. Um, I tried my hardest to pick up on them, but because they're so the way that this bar was set up, it was like the stage and then the dance floor and then right behind that was the bar. There was only a little space to walk, like a couple feet, so most of the extra space was on the sides and there was no fuck around.

Speaker 1 30:22

No floor.

Speaker 2 30:23

It was like if you know the dance, you can be on the dance floor. If you don't and you're trying to learn, no floor. Okay, it was like if you know the dance, you can be on the dance floor. If you don't and you're trying to learn, then you need to be on the sides until you can learn. And also, you couldn't have drinks anywhere near.

Speaker 1 30:36

Yeah, same.

Speaker 2 30:37

So that was annoying to people that we were with because it was like having a drink in your hand is like part of the fun of being at a bar. Yes, so that took out the fun, at least at the beginning, a little bit.

Speaker 2 30:48

but I was trying so hard to pick up on these dances and I would get three-fourths of it, but then because of the turning, spinning and and direction changing oh yeah it would take me until the very end, and then I would be like I got it, you guys and I would like do what I could, and then it was over and that kept happening, and so I was like what am I supposed to do here? And then the one we learned never came back on. As we were leaving, they were starting to teach another. I think they taught one at 8, 30 and one at 10. So I guess you just have to go every week for 10 weeks.

Speaker 1 31:21

So our observation was like the way people were doing it is it's like you go when you hear your song, you set your drink, your drink down. You go up there, you do it, you go back to your table. Yeah, like you just go up when your song that you know is on there.

Speaker 2 31:32

I guess, and in order to know it you have to go every week.

Speaker 1 31:37

Or just watch online. Oh, true, because they're all like specific, did you notice?

Speaker 2 31:47

I don't know how yours were, but, like we did, one that I did end up picking up a little bit that was like specific to the song, All the ones that I believe were specific to the song Because, like there were specific motions to lyrics that were happening and I was like, oh, so it's like you can find them, learn them and then just go and have a time and then be like I know this one, Go do it and then get off the floor.

Speaker 1 32:00

That's what people were doing. They were going up and down and up and down, like, oh, this is like a culture, this is a thing you do it is.

Speaker 2 32:05

It is a culture, for sure it's not just like a, do it once a year and go like you gotta really like no, if you are in it, you have to be dedicated to learning, which I, I guess, like if it was a an event like that, I would. I could put in some work to learn a couple of them, okay, but it they definitely are not trying to help you unless it is the teaching moment. Did yours do like partner, like country? Two-step times, two-step it was two-step night.

Speaker 2 32:35

Oh no, so it was like that was the majority of it. That sucks, yeah, because it was like slow.

Speaker 1 32:39

And the sound system was horrendous. It was like not good.

Speaker 2 32:45

I felt like I was in Footloose so I had a good time in my head being in footloose, but it was very. I want one that's like fully pop, because the one that I was teaching when we were leaving was to do a leap of levitating, and I was like I wish that had been the first one we learned.

Speaker 1 33:02

The vibe was cute. It was like very what it was you know.

Speaker 2 33:05

Yeah.

Speaker 1 33:11

And the food was very like it was just like.

Speaker 2 33:12

This is exactly what. What you thought it was is exactly what it was. I just wish they had a better sound system. Yeah, it was a good experience. I wish I had been able to go with you guys, but, um, I don't know if it's something that I'm interested in being a part of. Yeah, unless it is full pop like we're gonna try hip-hop line dancing. Give it to me.

Speaker 1 33:29

Yeah, I don't and that exists now that I care, and that's why we're gonna try stud country. Is that that? Yes, what okay, well, let's go.

Speaker 2 33:36

It's like pop hip-hop line dancing wish I would have known that that is something we should try yes, and maybe we'll try to learn a few before we'll have we'll have a night yes, where we watch a few of the most popular ones. Yeah.

Speaker 1 33:49

Just so we have like two or three in our back pocket.

Speaker 2 33:50

Because it is kind of not as fun to not participate.

Speaker 1 33:54

Correct, I agree and just watch.

Speaker 2 33:56

Yeah, so okay, I like that. Yeah, it's a fun thing to.

Speaker 1 34:00

I think so.

Speaker 2 34:01

Plan yeah, that was on Friday. And then you did you go? No, that was on Friday, and then you did you go.

Speaker 1 34:07

No, that was.

Speaker 2 34:07

Saturday, did you on Sunday? Huh, she did a yoga thing, oh she did puppy yoga?

Speaker 1 34:13

No, I did not, so Sunday I just started packing or was packing and then watch the Oscars.

Speaker 2 34:19

Yeah, so update. I'm on a new workout journey. At least for this month, I have paused my CrossFit membership, which is weird for me. I know but I wanted to try. What for one? My back never gets a chance to heal my lower back, um, when I do CrossFit, because there's always some sort of movement that involves lower back and it I don't. I'm not injuring it, but it's never fully healing.

Speaker 1 34:49

She's not bouncing back quickly.

Speaker 2 34:51

No, because I'm old. So I wanted to give myself a chance for that and I want to work on my flexibility. So I was like I'm gonna um go to yoga. There's a place that I have gone a few times in studio city that I enjoy. It's small, it makes me not feel they have hot. They have like regular hot. I feel like every place is the same Probably. I just feel very um relaxed there, Like I don't feel like I'm worried about people judging me, Cause it's not a big box place, it's like a small owned place. So I have decided that at least this month I'm going to do that. I don't know, I might extend into next month.

Speaker 1 35:42

Are you doing this through like class pass?

Speaker 2 35:43

or class pass. Yeah, so that's my journey and I'll let you guys know about that, because a lot of my lower back pain it could could be fixed by, um, my regular stretching of my quad, uh, muscles and stuff. Because from what I've learned from friends that are like physical therapists and stuff, I like the muscles in front wrap around to the back and so hopefully that will help and if not, then I've promised Josh that I will go to the doctor, okay.

Speaker 1 36:27

So You're trying the natural way first.

Speaker 2 36:31

Yes, good, and I want to try out the whole, like working out with lower, lower cortisol.

Speaker 1 36:40

Oh yeah.

Speaker 2 36:41

Like if that makes a difference.

Speaker 1 36:42

Yeah.

Speaker 2 36:43

So I'll report back. Dodgeball has started for me in my other league, which I miss you guys, and I'm sad that I'm not gonna be able to play with you guys well, yeah, that's right, because, yeah, I forgot you guys are starting, uh, the spring league in the other league that we did. I didn't think about this, but I couldn't have been able to play anyway because Josh came to me with the cornhole league. So I'm playing dodgeball and cornhole right now. I can't believe how sporty.

Speaker 2 37:12

I am Sports podcast um playing dodgeball with our old, our original team we started with, but in a different league, and then Josh and I are going to play in a cornhole league, um, and then Josh and I are going to play in a cornhole league Um Wednesday nights, because we're from Indiana and his friend um, who's pregnant, can't play football anymore.

Speaker 2 37:31

So she was like I want to do something. And they found this cornhole league and so she was like, oh, you guys should play too. So we were like we're pretty, we're pretty good at cornhole, and we might as well do something like that, that's fun so we're doing that. But back to dodgeball. That started this past week. The week before we had like an introduction thing.

Speaker 1 37:52

It wasn't like actually you played every team for like a little bit yeah, so this was our first actual game did you get a cooter punch t-shirt no, there's no, we are not doing any t-shirts for this.

Speaker 2 38:04

A lot of them that played for cooter have they're just wearing their old shirts, but not uniformly, just like whatever. So this league is way more serious and people are way better.

Speaker 1 38:17

It's like the nicer gym though.

Speaker 2 38:19

It is, but I don't like it because the balls go everywhere.

Speaker 1 38:21

Right, it's a curtain divider, yeah, but I don't like it because the balls go everywhere.

Speaker 2 38:24

Right, it's a curtain divider. Yeah, cause at the the gym that we played out before, there is a big net divider and then there's walls, and so the ball is not going everywhere.

Speaker 2 38:33

Like the ball can go behind the other side of the gym, you have to run forever from our tournament there to run, it goes in the other other person's court and the game has to stop like every five seconds, like it is not my favorite thing to do, but every people are much better. There are way more people that, quote, play for team usa or have played for team usa dodgeball before, which does actually exist. When josh and I were in santa barb, we were randomly put on ESPN and there was a full like tournament being played, so and we watched it, so it does exist.

Speaker 1 39:11

Is it played the same as our league, though Like? The size of the teams and all of that. Yeah, okay.

Speaker 2 39:16

Exactly the same, um, but people are way more serious and better than me and I feel like I am the weakest player on the team. Oh, are you the newest no, there, actually is a guy on your team harris is eris on your team?

Speaker 1 39:32

no, she's not no she wasn't part of cooter punch.

Speaker 2 39:36

No, she wasn't, she wasn't oh, they had just asked her to play for that yeah no, she's not, um, but yeah, I feel like there's me. I'm not the newest. There's a guy who I think this is his first time. There's a couple guys that are his for their first time playing. One of them is just like a really athletic guy that he plays volleyball and other things, so he is naturally just picked it up quickly. There's another guy who maybe same level, maybe a little bit newer than me, so like hasn't fully like gotten into it yet, but I feel like I'm one of the weakest links, which is really hard for me. Yeah, but we'll see how it goes. I didn't do much this past game well, I have nothing to report.

Speaker 1 40:21

I want to come see one.

Speaker 2 40:24

You're always welcome.

Speaker 1 40:26

I went boxing. I box every day, but on Friday, this past Friday, we were joined by a celebrity, so I got to box next to Mr Big from Sex and the City.

Speaker 2 40:37

Oh my gosh, that's, really cool. He's also so tall and big.

Speaker 1 40:43

He's my height and he can hold his own. He can really do it.

Speaker 2 40:47

It was his first class.

Speaker 1 40:48

He's on beat, thank God, and he was doing the like floor work. It was a box and lift class, so he was like doing the whole thing.

Speaker 2 40:54

His first time.

Speaker 1 40:55

His first time.

Speaker 2 40:56

Ever yeah, or just for him there.

Speaker 1 40:58

When he didn't have wraps on his hands. I was like does he know what he's doing? Then we started boxing. Like he knew all the combinations and the numbers and I was like was he with anyone or just just himself?

Speaker 2 41:11

we walked out to our cars together and I was like good job. He was like thanks, brother. Oh my gosh, that's such a.

Speaker 1 41:14

So I immediately sent a message to angela and she was like so she's already signed up for friday's class.

Speaker 2 41:18

Like I don't even care, I'm gonna go up to him. What if you become really good friends with him?

Speaker 1 41:22

that would be funny. He was kind of canceled. That's why they killed him off the show but I couldn't figure out why it's okay. It's okay, we don't have to get into it, but he was very nice to everyone.

Speaker 2 41:31

Do I have to hate him or not?

Speaker 1 41:32

I don't know but he did a great job. He was a really good boxer and like he looks exactly like himself. And what's funny is like I have just started watching like old movies, not old movies movies that I really enjoy, that I haven't seen in a long time, and last night I watched castaway, which I haven't seen since like 2003 yeah and he's in that movie and I was like why, how he plays he mean he's a lot, but yeah, I know, but it was just like what I only think of what is this?

Speaker 2 41:57

what is he doing? That he?

Speaker 1 41:58

plays. So bonnie hunt remarries because she thinks tom hanks is dead and he's her husband. Also, like I don't know why, my recollection this is such a sidebar. My recollection of that movie was just like Island.

Speaker 2 42:12

Yeah.

Speaker 1 42:12

But that's only like an hour of the movie. The other hour and a half is the before the Island and the after the Island.

Speaker 2 42:18

Yeah, I honestly that sounds like a good movie to rewatch. I haven't seen it in a like. Oh yeah, this movie does have substance and like a good story and it's sad as hell.

Speaker 1 42:30

It feels like something I would watch on an airplane, like rewatch on an airplane. There's a plane crash, you would do that.

Speaker 2 42:33

That's why, yeah, I watched titanic the night before I went on the first cruise.

Speaker 1 42:35

I went on I watched titanic the other night too.

Speaker 2 42:38

I'm just like, oh well, that's a given sure that can be anytime at the day, anytime of the year.

Speaker 1 42:43

I watched Notting Hill. I'm just like on these older movie kicks, but anyway.

Speaker 2 42:46

so he was at boxing and Angela is stoked and I hope he comes again on Friday so that she can see. I'm going to ask him for a picture. If you start coaching, maybe he'll come to your class.

Speaker 1 42:56

I know I would. I would probably reach out because he was standing. We were at the same, we were next to each was going off of me when you couldn't see low um, which just gave me more motivation to be extra good.

Speaker 2 43:07

Yeah, I'm sure you are Thanks.

Speaker 1 43:10

Anyway.

Speaker 2 43:10

Well, speaking of older things, maybe I don't know if this is a good transition, but this is kind of everything's old news. But have did you hear about Danielle official fighting with Maitland on her podcast?

Speaker 1 43:25

Danielle Fishel.

Speaker 2 43:26

Danielle Fishel, who is Topanga from Boy in the. World Fishel.

Speaker 1 43:33

I thought her name was Danielle Fisher.

Speaker 2 43:36

Hmm, no, it's O-T-H-E-L, f-i-s-h-e-l. Huh, I did. I did hear that on TikTok. Yeah, so I have a question why do you hate us, or something like that? That was crazy, so I have the page six article. I did. I listened yeah but um so maitland plays. What character, hello exit sean's girlfriend, right? No, she's in porn, it's not her she's the red haired oh yeah, the porn actress yes, she was on Danielle's podcast called pod meets world, which hate the name I get.

Speaker 1 44:23

I get that I get it, but she had to but she co-hosts with writer strong and will friedel.

Speaker 2 44:29

Yeah, so I get it, but hate the name, yeah, and yeah, she's just like do you hate us? It was crazy so blunt and maitland was like I know I don't hate you, but you know, I think she said I think that you hate me because you wouldn't speak to me on Girl Meets World and that was hurtful. And Danielle's like Wait, did she play a part on Girl?

Speaker 1 44:50

Meets World.

Speaker 2 44:50

I think that they all kind of came back and did little.

Speaker 1 44:52

Even though she was in porn. I mean I'm glad I yeah.

Speaker 2 45:08

I don't think that I think that they all kind of did little cameos so I I think that people weren't.

Speaker 2 45:11

Yeah, I didn't even know she did porn, so I don't know how well known it was. Maybe they were like, not that many people know. And white chicks love yeah, that's another movie I need to re-watch. Um, so word said that she learned that fishel had unfriended her on facebook when she attempted to send her a heartfelt message in 2013, which is so funny. Like you guys are, so 2013, adults relax. And she said uh, danielle said she didn't, did not see the message until 2022 when she tried to contact her about coming on the episode of the podcast. And, like everyone, why are we on Facebook? I think that you can ask around and get her contact from your manager or her manager, or Instagram literally anything else Like don't be so millennial, yeah, facebook.

Speaker 1 45:52

Yeah.

Speaker 2 45:52

Like relax. And so then Ward said that she felt official reaching out to her was disingenuous, especially after she felt disregarded on the Girl Meets World set. And she said you had an attitude about it, there was something between us and I didn't get it. And danielle was like um, she basically said she didn't remember having an issue with her and she said that the girl meets world set was a very difficult set for her. And so she was like I didn't know that you felt that way and whatever, but the, the way they're going back and forth is so like yikes and it was just really awkward. And she said, let's put it this way, the memories we have on the set of boy meets world were not the memories on set of Girl Meets World. And also, why was Girl Meets World such a problem?

Speaker 1 46:45

Yeah, wait why?

Speaker 2 46:47

I don't know Like what was going on.

Speaker 1 46:50

So dramatic? I don't know.

Speaker 2 46:51

Be happy that you're back working. Okay, it says Danielle brought up how Ward has spoken badly of the cast in past interviews. Almost any time the podcast is in the news. Oh, she's on, only the news. Oh, she's on, yeah, only fans said that she didn't listen to the podcast regularly because the hosts spew a lot of negativity. Danielle denied the claim, saying the same way you wrote in your book about your experiences doesn't mean they're negative. They're just experiences. So don't listen to the podcast regularly, but your overall opinion is that we're negative about Michael and Ben on the show. Okay, and then she was like you're just grilling me to get ratings and so like what is it? Why are you on the podcast if you hate it I don't know.

Speaker 2 47:28

I don't know whose side I'm on.

Speaker 1 47:30

I'm sure that the whole thing just feels dramatic danielle comes to me like.

Speaker 2 47:34

Looks like she could kind of be bitchy yeah but also, why are you on this podcast if you hate it? If do you hate us? Because it seems like you do, yeah, and it seems like you just came on to say that. It feels like it felt like it sounded like she had been building that up in her head. Yeah, to be like, I'm gonna say this when I'm on there, I'm gonna bring it up, knowing that it was gonna get headlines and knowing that she was gonna be 100 talked about. It seems like it was contrived or it seems like she planned it, and also I think both things can be true. I think danielle could have been a bitch to her and I think that maitland could have planned the sabotage of do you hate us, right? Or the type thing oh no, I guess danielle is the one that said do you hate us?

Speaker 2 48:16

oh sorry, yeah, it is so whatever I just said actually doesn't make sense, but her coming on the podcast in general if she feels weird about it. It doesn't make sense.

Speaker 1 48:25

Correct. It feels like she can't say say you only wanted this for ratings, because then why did you do it?

Danielle Fishel Podcast Drama

Speaker 2 48:31

Why did you come on? I don't know. It seems really silly and really childish, so both of them probably just need to cool it. Relax, that's the word of today for me. Relax, relax, relax, zoe Sald, that's the word of today for me. Relax, relax, relax, zoe sodana. Yes, no, that's that's hard to say she won her first oscar. Okay, all right, I take it back, it's okay. Well, the only other thing I have written down is do you have thoughts on bethany frankl?

Speaker 1 49:00

who is that?

Speaker 2 49:00

in In general oh my gosh, real Housewives of New York.

Speaker 1 49:03

Oh, skinny Girl Wine, or whatever.

Speaker 2 49:04

Skinny Girl. I have thoughts on that. I don't have thoughts on her.

Speaker 1 49:09

I just wrote it down.

Speaker 2 49:11

I just like wanted to talk because she makes 500,000 TikToks a day.

Speaker 1 49:16

Oh, big conspiracy theorist.

Speaker 2 49:18

Conspiracy theorist. She's always eating caviar and talking about the caviar.

Speaker 1 49:23

She's been on the drones happening and like that was her thing.

Speaker 2 49:25

She's been on the drones. She's always like yeah, she's always eating caviar on crackers and she'll. She's like trying, she tries to be so relatable. Sometimes she's like I'm going to the drugstore to buy drugstore makeup because it's just as good as whatever. And then she's like I got turned away from Gucci because I was like I looked disheveled and then she went back the next day looking put together.

Speaker 1 49:49

Big mistake.

Speaker 2 49:50

Huge no, that energy for sure. And then she'll be like another thing where she's trying to be relatable and she's like I love McDonald's. And then she's like the next day eating caviar on a cracker and it's whiplash. But she makes 5 million TikToks a day and I just was seeing so many in a row and I was like I need to talk about this, like you are all over the place and I feel like she's a polarizing, polarizing person. But I also think that she is so. She's so calculated but also comes off as not. I don't, it's she. I could it's confusing.

Speaker 2 50:30

I could do a whole course learning about what she's doing, because it works for her. She's making a lot of money, but also, are you okay? Yeah, I have no thoughts, but I have so many thoughts, yeah, and I just wanted to know if you were locked in on bethany talk like I am no, I'm sorry that's okay. That's all I mean. I don't really have a lot. I don't know what my thoughts are, I just know that she's an entity.

Speaker 1 51:02

There's something going on.

Speaker 2 51:04

Yes, she's a lot, and what is real and what is not real. I need someone to is it her daughter that's that had the viral sound no, oh no no no, that is uh from new jersey, that is um oh yeah, I know you're talking about.

Speaker 2 51:22

I can picture that's so funny yeah, no, but there was a weird thing that happened with Bethany and her daughter because they were on vacation somewhere and they were in like some sort of gift shop and there was a dildo looking thing, that, or maybe a food item or I don't know something that was penis shaped and her daughter and her were like joking about it or she let her daughter buy it and the internet had a huge reaction to this because she's a minor and Bethany was like I, my daughter and I talk very openly about sex, like I want her to not like shy away from that and me also teach her you know proper ways of talking about it and protection, and I like I don't want her to be scared to come to me if she has a boyfriend and they want to have sex, like stuff like that. So she's like we are open about this, so it's. I'm not going to pretend like if something is shaped like a penis, I'm not going to be like, oh, let's not look at that, so it was a whole thing. Um, so I thought that's, I thought that's where you're going with that question, but I don't know.

Speaker 2 52:40

She's just a enigma to me. That's like what? You're so rich you were on the Real Housewives of New York. But you also tried to to come off as like the people's princess and you, you do things that aren't rich and oh, I'm just like you. I shop at TJ Maxx and I'm like, do you actually? Because if you do, then then cool. But if you're just pretending so that people you come off relatable, then I am annoyed, agreed, and I can't decide which one it is, and I think that's why I needed to talk about it.

Speaker 1 53:15

You're gonna have to do a little more, you're gonna have to watch a little more but I don't think we'll ever know, because I watch. I see her every single day and she's not on the show anymore, so like no?

Speaker 2 53:23

I don't think I'll ever know. And she's a genius for that. Yeah for sure. Keep people guessing. She refuses to be perceived she makes me want to eat caviar, but like do I? I don't know. Maybe, so anyway, Bethany Wrinkle.

Speaker 1 53:38

Yes, girl.

Speaker 2 53:39

Yes, girl, Do you want to hear? Do you have any more? I don't you want to hear. Do you have any any more? I don't you want to hear the birthdays for today? I do well, my birthday was yesterday, so happy birthday to you, thank you, we're gonna go to disney yeah, we need to talk about that later. Bad bunny is 31, a baby, a child not that much younger than us.

Speaker 1 54:01

But I just can't I thought he was our age I guess Chuck Norris 85.

Speaker 2 54:06

A baby, I'm just kidding. Emily Osment is 33. Oh, okay. Olivia Wild is 41. Malika Hack, who is Khloe Kardashian's best friend, Malika. Oh yeah, Malika 42, which I would just watch the episode of. First of all, another podcast name I hate chloe in wonderland didn't know that was a thing get out. She just launched it like three, four weeks ago um hate in wonderland, doesn't?

Speaker 2 54:36

really roll wonderland hate it. Yeah, uh, but I just watched the episode she had Malika and Khadijah on and I actually really enjoyed it. Chloe is actually not bad at podcasting.

Bethany Frankel and Birthday Shoutouts

Speaker 1 54:49

She's always, I thought, been a really good like she's very eloquent, yeah, Good at speaking, and interviewing and also not so uptight Like that episode. Let's not forget, she hosted the X Factor. Okay.

Speaker 2 54:59

Lest us not forget.

Speaker 1 55:00

Yeah, let's not forget.

Speaker 2 55:07

Um they not forget yeah, let's not forget. Um they talked about their uh, past partying days and stupid things they would do and like men they would go home with. Like it was very just like fun girly pop and I really enjoyed it but, I hate the podcast name. Okay, I don't know what it could have been. What's something off the top of your head? I mean chloe talks.

Speaker 1 55:25

That's better to me chloe in la la land, like I don't know why it was chloe in thousand oaks keeping up with chloe chloe in hidden hills.

Speaker 2 55:36

Keeping up with chloe chloe in calabasas that is played out because we we still have not gotten um lamar and oh right, which was keeping up with sports right, still has never come out nope but side note, the do you have?

Speaker 2 55:53

you don't watch the kardashians, do you know? So this new season started out with chloe and lamar reuniting for the first time in like years nine years or whatever, I don't know a long time um at Malika's house and they she had stuff to give him, some awards and some like stuff from his mom that she had still kept from when they broke up. And he is, he gets in there, he's like super late and she's really annoyed at him. And then he's like sweaty and so nervous and he doesn't know what to say. And then, when he warms up and he chills out, then he just starts calling her his wife and like baby, and she's like I don't know you anymore. Stop calling me your wife. We got divorced.

Speaker 1 56:44

And it's very much like he's in love with her still, do they have a baby together?

Speaker 2 56:47

no, no that's not him, okay. No, the baby is with um. What is his name?

Speaker 1 56:52

tristan oh right, tristan, yeah and he.

Speaker 2 56:55

It's very apparent that he's in love with her still and she's like yeah, I don't know you, and I did so many, I wiped your butt when you couldn't, so like I am looking at you very differently than you're looking at me and honestly they might be in game. Maybe they should get back together if he really is a different man, because honestly, the chemistry is still there. Even though she was like don't call me your wife, it was still like. She was like rolling her eyes and I could be like I could see them back together. But he would. He would have to be a hundred percent reformed because she, she can't have that in her life. But anyway, malik is 42, and also Khadija, for that matter, yes, even though she wasn't on famous birthdays and I am sorry that is crazy. Robin Thicke is 48. Thought he was way older.

Speaker 1 57:46

Me too, a hundred percent, john Hamm is 54.

Speaker 2 57:51

Timbaland is 53. Looks great. Yeah, sharon Stone is 67. Looks great. Mod Sun oh 38. Okay, no, I thought he was younger, to be be honest, because he gives younger to me. Oh yeah, honestly, he gives Gen Z to me.

Speaker 1 58:08

Yeah, I could see that, and he was with Bella Feels like that.

Speaker 2 58:11

Yeah, so he's 38. Now we're into pop culture things, speaking of Mikey Madison, scream 6. Is that? No, she was in Scream 5. Dang it that? No, she was in Scream 5.

Speaker 1 58:22

Dang it, that would have been crazy.

Speaker 2 58:23

It would have been Scream 6 premiered in 2023.

Speaker 1 58:26

Cute.

Speaker 2 58:27

Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Speaker 1 58:29

Series or movie.

Speaker 2 58:30

The series in 1997.

Speaker 1 58:33

Yeah, Michelle Trachenberg.

Speaker 2 58:35

Oh my gosh, wow, wow. Well, she didn't die on this day. That would have been crazier.

Speaker 1 58:41

No, correct, we, we were talking about her.

Speaker 2 58:42

Yeah, and then the show 60 days in premiered in 2016, and have you ever watched that?

Speaker 1 58:47

I put that on here because what a crazy show yeah, wait, that's the 90 day, fiance, no what 60 days in is where?

Speaker 2 58:57

oh sorry babe one sec 60 Days In is where regular people go willingly into prison for 60 days to give information to the guards and to the they go undercover. Yeah, sorry they go undercover, but willingly.

Speaker 2 59:20

Oh, okay, undercover, but willingly okay, and they observe what's happening in the uh wards in terms of uh paraphernalia and cell phones and gangs and all this stuff. And then they, um, they they probably know now the the inmates that are have are in there for a long time. I'm sure they've picked up on it now, but the original premise was that they said they were filming a documentary and that's why there were cameras in there, and then they would cameras and new people cameras and new people and they would pull inmates for interviews.

Speaker 2 1:00:01

So they would pull multiple people and they would pull the person who's in there undercover and then in the. So they would pull multiple people and they would pull the person who's in there undercover and then in the interviews they would tell them what's going on so that the wards and the wardens and the police and all these people know in real time what shady stuff is going on. It was risky and then if it gets too scary, they will pull them, got it out. So they're always monitoring them. But men, men and women and there was a time where I was really watching this show hard because it is so interesting yeah, that is I feel like the the female ones were way less going on.

Speaker 2 1:00:41

Okay, they would fight, sometimes argue, but I feel like they're chilling way more the men Wild. So, honestly, if you guys have never watched, I recommend it's pretty interesting.

Speaker 1 1:00:55

It's like an A&E show.

Speaker 2 1:00:57

Definitely, or TLC maybe, I'm not sure. If you guys have never seen it, watch it. I don't know if it's still going, because the whole premise is that people can't know that they're actually doing this show. So if they did it a bunch 2016 now is so long ago that I don't know now if they're like we're filming a documentary If the inmates would be like, yeah, right, no, you're not, who's the snitch in here? And we're gonna get you in the middle of the night anyway, that's that give it a watch everyone give it a watch and with that we are signing off for this episode.

Speaker 2 1:01:37

We uh? Yesterday was my birthday again, so thank you all for the well wishes that I'm assuming that you will be giving me.
