Blood Work And Healthcare Logistics

SPEAKER_03 0:00

I had to do blood work today.

SPEAKER_01 0:03

How met how many vials?

SPEAKER_03 0:04

Eight.

SPEAKER_01 0:05

Oh my goodness.

SPEAKER_03 0:06

She was like, we're getting eight vials. I was like, what's fantastic. It was like, well, looks like he's testing for a lot.

SPEAKER_01 0:13

Dang.

SPEAKER_03 0:14

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 0:15

Did you know what he was testing for?

SPEAKER_03 0:17

I mean, he may have told me at my doctor's appointment, but my doctor's appointment was back in August. This was the earliest appointment they had to do the blood work.

SPEAKER_01 0:24

This is just like regular, this is like cholesterol.

SPEAKER_03 0:27

I imagine, yeah. Testosterone. Probably when I told him that I was of the gay, I'm sure he added on all the STD tests.

SPEAKER_01 0:36

Yeah. I think they do that for straits too.

SPEAKER_03 0:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 0:39

If you're if you haven't had one in a while.

SPEAKER_03 0:42

Right. But yeah, pretty standard. And then like they're not doing like they wouldn't give they're not. They he said whenever they used to do blood work and then go over the results the same day. But there was something about people like not showing up to do the blood work or something. What I don't really remember, but he said, so now they don't do that anymore. You they schedule your blood work and then then you're physical to go over everything. That's not my experience that I just had, but also not normal, but like I don't know, maybe it's because of the insurance I have. But yeah, whatever the case, I have to go back next week for a full physical.

SPEAKER_01 1:22

That actually is really dumb.

unknown 1:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:24

I feel like it's normally like physical. They order the blood work and then they'll like call you and be like, everything looks good, or they'll be like, come back in if if they really need to talk about something.

SPEAKER_03 1:37

The way that this hospital is doing it. Like when I went for my first appointment to get established with them, I thought that was gonna be my physical.

SPEAKER_04 1:44

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:44

But it was really just like they got my medical history, they heard my concerns, like they got all of my medication, like they made more of like my file.

SPEAKER_01 1:54

Couldn't that have been, you know, like a telehealth?

SPEAKER_03 1:57

Right.

SPEAKER_01 1:57

You know?

SPEAKER_03 1:58

Could have.

SPEAKER_01 1:59

Well, I'm sorry that that happened.

SPEAKER_03 2:02

But it didn't pass out, is the point. Yeah. I fasted. I went and I did it.

SPEAKER_00 2:08

Then they were like 8 30. That's okay.

SPEAKER_03 2:10

Yeah. I couldn't eat after midnight, which is fine, I don't anyway. Please, please don't pull over that bin. He just keeps pulling that bin over because he loves it. He's doing it.

SPEAKER_01 2:22

I wish you guys could see or hear this. Stanley has pulled out his whole toy bin.

SPEAKER_03 2:29

Allison gifted Stanley this Christmas toy bin that he loves. Every year when I put the Christmas.

SPEAKER_01 2:35

Yeah, I feel like he's like re forgets it, and then when he sees it, he's like, this is my favorite.

SPEAKER_03 2:41

When I carried it in from the garage, he started leaping. It has these pom-poms on the front, you guys, and he grabs the pom-poms and then drags the bin around, tips it over just to dig through it.

SPEAKER_01 2:51

Well, his little mouth, it's something that he can actually grab onto. I was gonna say, can they see your village behind you in the camera?

SPEAKER_03 2:58

Yes, you can. See my village and my two of my stockers. It's very Christmassy. I think in this, you can see the reflection of the tree in this.

SPEAKER_01 3:05

I love that.

SPEAKER_03 3:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:07

Like the um treetopper is a disco ball.

SPEAKER_03 3:10

Yeah, those are all my decorations from last year. You can't see it, but my Titanic ornament from Allison is right here, front and center. Chad loves this. He was like, this is a great ornament.

SPEAKER_05 3:20

Thank you.

SPEAKER_03 3:20

Um there's my really gay Christm this year ornament. Do you see it?

SPEAKER_01 3:24

Oh, yeah. Did you get it from the mall?

Stanley’s Toy Bin And Holiday Decor

SPEAKER_03 3:26

No, it's like a mallet. Did you see my Christmas lights outside? Allison. Oh.

unknown 3:34

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 3:35

Well, in the spirit of Christmas, let's start the pod. Oh.

SPEAKER_03 3:53

Welcome back to the A-list podcast with Allison and Alex. That's Allison. I'm Alex.

SPEAKER_01 3:59

That wasn't a good segue.

SPEAKER_03 4:01

It wasn't, but that because you run a roll like two weeks in a row, you were doing really good segues. Segwise.

SPEAKER_01 4:06

Segui.

SPEAKER_03 4:07

Anyway.

SPEAKER_01 4:08

What's happening? What have you done today on this Veterans Day?

SPEAKER_03 4:12

Worked. I was at the office today. This is not a bank holiday.

SPEAKER_00 4:16

We're recording Veterans.

SPEAKER_03 4:19

This has been more of like a day that I've been really focusing on my manifestation because it's 1111.

SPEAKER_00 4:24

Ah.

SPEAKER_03 4:25

You know, listening to some Mel Robbins, some manifestation music, and just trying to stay in my manifestation music. Um manifestation music is at a certain hurts. Like it's like a vibrational frequency. But also just like music that isn't like sad and depressing.

SPEAKER_01 4:42

You're not supposed to listen to I don't do that anyway.

SPEAKER_03 4:47

You you definitely do.

SPEAKER_01 4:49

Hmm. Come on, skinny love. Just last year. Yeah, but that's just to dance to. That's not like to like think about.

SPEAKER_05 4:58

No, you're right.

SPEAKER_01 4:59

Bonnie Bear. Yeah. Um, yeah, I don't just like listen to sad music. I actually reject sad music. When I'm sad, I don't listen to sad music. I listen to like rap.

SPEAKER_03 5:08

Hardcore hip hop insane clown posse.

SPEAKER_01 5:11

No, never.

SPEAKER_03 5:12

No, never. ICP.

SPEAKER_01 5:14

But I don't like to sit. It's like probably not a good thing. You know, a therapist would probably say, maybe not. But I like to not think about the sadness, and I like to just do other things.

SPEAKER_03 5:27

Be blissfully unaware. Yeah. Yeah. Um, other news. So Saturday I got into my car with a boyfriend, and it made a weird noise when I started it. I was like, Did you hear that?

SPEAKER_01 5:42

Oh, the car. I thought you said I made it.

SPEAKER_03 5:44

No. Yeah, I was like, the car made a weird noise. He was like, No, we go to our destination, we go take it back in the car. My car won't start.

SPEAKER_00 5:53

Oh no.

SPEAKER_03 5:55

I was like, okay, whatever. I'm not gonna handle deal with this now. So I have this little technology is amazing. I have this thing that's like a little, it looks like a tiny little b battery for your phone, but it jump starts your car.

SPEAKER_00 6:09

Oh.

SPEAKER_03 6:09

Has two little clamps. I've never used it before. I just have it in case of emergency.

SPEAKER_00 6:14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 6:15

I was like, I will be shocked if this works. Yeah. Hooked it up to my battery, you press this little button, it goes ding, and then your car starts.

SPEAKER_00 6:22

I have to get this.

SPEAKER_03 6:23

$20 on Amazon.

SPEAKER_00 6:25

Oh my goodness.

SPEAKER_03 6:26

That and my air compressor that I carry around. Like everyone should have these two things in their car.

SPEAKER_00 6:30

Yeah, in my opinion. You should make a TikTok.

SPEAKER_03 6:32

I will make a TikTok. Actually, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 6:34

You should.

SPEAKER_03 6:35

I should. Um anyway. I have been needing an oil change for a long time and putting it off because you it's never just that.

SPEAKER_01 6:44

No, they're gonna be in the city.

SPEAKER_03 6:46

You don't know this, you don't live this life anymore.

Manifestation, Music Moods, And Mindset

SPEAKER_01 6:47

But but I did, and I was so bad at it, and that's one reason that I wanted an electric car because I was always over.

SPEAKER_03 6:54

I mean, I'm way over. Yeah. So I was like, I just don't want to face the dot the zeros that they're gonna put at the end of the one. Yeah. But I was like, I can't, I obviously need a new battery and I can't, whatever. I love the guy that works on my car though, because I go to a Mitsubishi dealership. I've gone to them, I've had my car for five years now. I've gone to them since I got it, and he's never scammed me. He's always like, here's what really should be done, here's what could wait, blah, blah, blah.

SPEAKER_05 7:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 7:22

And like I have little annoying things going on with my car. Like, for some reason, the remote and like you can press the, you know, just the handle and it'll unlock the car.

SPEAKER_01 7:29

Oh, yeah. Which I never understand. I push it in every time.

SPEAKER_03 7:32

Yes, everyone does when they use my the opening my trunk. But the driver's side and pass driver's side driver's driver's side passenger door will not unlock anymore. Like with the remote or with me, I have to use the key, which is so old school and annoying.

SPEAKER_04 7:47

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 7:47

So I was like, that that needs to be checked out. My like uh thing that sprays my washer fluid, like just kind of like spits out of the one on the driver's side, so it always smears. So I was like, okay, whatever. But I'm gonna say, I don't want to spend a ton of money, just give it, give me the absolute necess necessary things, obviously a battery. And I had gotten like a nail in my tire back in July. I took it to American Tire because in case you guys don't know this, you can take your, if you have like a small slow league, you can take go to any American Tire depot and they can they will repair it for free.

SPEAKER_04 8:21

Oh.

SPEAKER_03 8:22

And then check your tires. They repaired it and they were like, you're gonna need new tires, ASAP. And you know me, like I I anticipate that sometime in the winter season I'm gonna be going to Big Bear, and you can't have bad tires if you go to cold weather. So I was like, he's gonna tell me you need whatever. So I go to the I scheduled this appointment for first thing Monday morning. I get well, the earliest appointment they had was 12. It's like what I and I know that it takes a while, so I'm just gonna take my work and work from there. Long story longer, apparently, they he comes out, his uh, he's like, Hey, well, can't you come back here so we can go over? And he took me to the back. I was like, Oh god.

SPEAKER_01 9:00

No. It's like you're being told like you're in the hospital and like someone's passed away.

SPEAKER_03 9:05

Yeah. He's like, okay, if we did everything that needs to be done, it's$2,600.

SPEAKER_01 9:10

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 9:10

And I was like, Okay.

SPEAKER_01 9:12

All right, start taking things off.

SPEAKER_03 9:13

Yeah, I was like, he was like, and I will tell you, the most expensive thing that needs fixed is your door locks.

SPEAKER_01 9:17

He's like, Well, I would've yeah.

SPEAKER_03 9:19

He's like, I have never he's like, this happens. I've never seen it happen on the same side. Did you have, did you get in an accident? Did anyone hit you? I was like, not that I'm aware of. He's like, I didn't see any body damage, but like you never see it like this.

SPEAKER_01 9:31

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 9:31

He's like, it's so random.

SPEAKER_01 9:33

Quote with the labor.

SPEAKER_03 9:35

Yeah, that was the total to have everything done. Labor is the most expensive part.

SPEAKER_01 9:38

Yeah, they have to take off the doors after them.

SPEAKER_03 9:40

To take off those, and I and like obviously that's not prudent to my car operating. So I was immediately like, then get them the hell off of this.

SPEAKER_00 9:47

Yeah.

Dead Battery, DIY Jump, And Dealership Drama

SPEAKER_03 9:47

He's like, okay, I we can wait on it because those two things together were fifteen hundred dollars.

SPEAKER_00 9:52

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 9:53

Of the 2600.

SPEAKER_00 9:54

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 9:55

So I was like, buy.

unknown 9:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 9:57

I was like, so is this tires? He's like, no, you've still got like 10,000 miles on your tires.

SPEAKER_01 10:01

Even the one with the nail in it?

SPEAKER_03 10:03

Yeah, and he saw that too. He's like, Yeah, the repair is really well done. Like these tires have plenty of tread. You probably got eight to ten thousand. I was like, Thank God he I saw him.

SPEAKER_00 10:10

Yeah. Wow.

SPEAKER_03 10:11

And that will save me. I was like, how? I haven't changed these tires since I got the car. He's like, these tires were probably eighteen hundred dollars a tire.

SPEAKER_01 10:18

It pays to get good tires.

SPEAKER_03 10:19

It sure does.

SPEAKER_01 10:20

I think I probably need new tires.

SPEAKER_03 10:23

God took that tread. Anyway, um, the battery's still under warranty, so I only had to pay for the labor to replace the battery.

SPEAKER_01 10:29

Wow. And that has to be that's easy, right? They just pop it in, pop it out.

SPEAKER_03 10:32

Exactly. My oil needed changed, standard. They needed to do, I haven't had a transmission flush since I got the car. You're supposed to do that at like 50,000 miles. I'm at 70,000 miles. So that makes sense. Then he goes, other thing that's I'm gonna say is like absolutely necessary is you do have an oil leak because you have a hose that is like completely busted. And I was like, How have I not seen oil anywhere? He's like, Well, that's what I wanted to show you. My engine is covered in oil. He's like, so that's like leaking. He's like, it's just messy and gross. Like, we'll clean it up, but like this, you absolutely need to have a new hose because you're just gonna lose oil pressure.

SPEAKER_04 11:06

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 11:07

So I was like, okay, well, taking off that stuff, it's still gonna be like 1,300. I was like, fine, just do it. Like, I need this stuff done. That man took off like$500. I only ended up paying$900 to have all that stuff. Yes. He's like, I I was able to find some cookies for Christmas. He's the best. Well, I love them, I love Tim McGreat review. And again, I always go back to him and I always tell people, like, if like they do, they don't do just Mitsubishi, but I go there because it is whatever.

SPEAKER_01 11:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 11:40

So I'm gonna hold off on the door locks because that's ridiculous. It's just like annoying that you have to manually it is, but I'm not kidding you. It feels like a new car.

SPEAKER_01 11:48

Love it.

SPEAKER_03 11:48

He was like, with the with and he added new, like he added more steering fluid, whatever. I got in this car after, and it took four and a half hours. I was there for four and a half hours, but it's like driving a new car.

SPEAKER_00 11:59

Wow.

SPEAKER_03 11:59

So then I just cooled it. I was like, okay, I've gotta co I've gotta pump the brakes because but now like that needed to get done. Now my car's operating.

SPEAKER_01 12:07

It's cheaper than it dying, and you have it to get a whole new car.

SPEAKER_03 12:11

100%.

SPEAKER_01 12:12

So that is like main top two reasons that I wanted an electric car.

SPEAKER_03 12:19

No more oil change.

SPEAKER_01 12:20

Yeah, I'm just like, I'm never gonna be good at it.

SPEAKER_03 12:23

Right.

SPEAKER_01 12:24

It's too expensive.

SPEAKER_03 12:25

And it's like so often. It's like as soon as you have just gotten one, all of a sudden you need another one.

SPEAKER_01 12:30

And as much as you drive here because you have to drive everywhere in LA, correct? It goes so fast.

SPEAKER_03 12:36

Yeah. So my Sunday was filled with a lot of anxiety because I was like, what's it gonna call?

SPEAKER_00 12:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 12:41

But wasn't that bad.

SPEAKER_00 12:43

That's good.

SPEAKER_03 12:44

Yeah. And then obviously, as you can see, decorated for Christmas.

SPEAKER_01 12:48

That took away some anxiety.

SPEAKER_03 12:49

Sure did, because I did do that on Sunday. I was like, I gotta distract.

SPEAKER_01 12:52

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 12:53

And then everything is starting to slow down in the entertainment world, which is like such a real.

SPEAKER_01 12:58

This is like the time, yeah. That's good.

SPEAKER_03 13:00

And I have hopefully a couple gigs coming up side things because BuzzFeed when that like they c they're closed for so much of November and December, and you they don't you don't get paid unless you're it's a working day. Like there's no because I'm not full-time. Got it. So just doing the thing, you know?

SPEAKER_01 13:17

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 13:18

So sorry. How are you?

SPEAKER_01 13:20

I'm good. I just want to comment on your you're wearing another college outfit.

SPEAKER_03 13:23

Do you think it's better than episode two, season the second one? Which wasn't bad, but like kind of not as memorable as the first.

SPEAKER_01 19:47

Yeah, I do think it's better than the second one. I think it goes first, third, second. Yeah. Um, because this one, not to give like any plot points away, but this also incorporates some elements of like escape room vibes.

SPEAKER_03 20:02

SPEAKER_01 26:13

Oh, for sure. This like I have been, he does a lot of um American slash English music. Got it. Okay. So I think he is more like Americanized than like when he first started. But he used to host this show that when BTS was on the rise, he hosted this like after school show that like they would go on a lot. And it was like him and this other girl, this him and this girl. And it's just so niche. Like I would like watch these clips back when I was like in the BTS fandom, and it would be him hosting this show where they would just go kind of like a TRL thing. Oh, okay. Yeah. And they would just like play games and like I don't know, just a way for K pop stars to get more content out. And then he has a solo act, and he's such a great singer, and this is so random. So I don't know, but I'm excited for it.

SPEAKER_03 27:12

Okay.

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 28:34

So it's gonna be like he's attractive, and like it'll be fun to look at him, I guess. And the challenges I'm sure he'll like be good at, but like I can't imagine he's gonna bring much to the table.

SPEAKER_03 28:44

SPEAKER_03 28:59

Nope, don't know it.

SPEAKER_01 29:01

And then Ian Terry, winner of Big Brother 14. He will not be a traitor in my mind, because like, unlike Dan Giesling, he like won the game and he's so like good analytically, but he's he doesn't give traitor vibes. Like Dan was like sneaky and you know, yeah, a little sinister.

SPEAKER_04 29:26

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 29:26

But Ian's like sweet boy, just like really nice and smart and like you know gold retriever. Yeah, yeah. Uh and then Colton Underwood, who we see as everywhere.

Love this for him, though.

SPEAKER_01 29:47

Yeah, he's married and has a baby.

SPEAKER_01 29:52

Colton Brown Underwood.

SPEAKER_03 30:19

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_01 30:20

Very excited.

SPEAKER_03 30:21

Now my question is, I can't remember. Is the show already done? They've kept it under wraps, or is it like there's because it airs in January.

SPEAKER_01 30:28

So Yeah, that's why I was like, why are they telling us this right now?

SPEAKER_03 30:31

Is it like actively shooting right now to air in January?

SPEAKER_00 30:35

Because I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 30:36

I just feel like these celebrities are too big, a lot of them, for them to be gone for like seven to eight weeks without people catching on to it, you know?

SPEAKER_01 30:45

Yeah. I don't know. I I don't think I've ever really heard the schedule of filming for them. So I'm not sure. Because like we know other reality shows, like we know how Survivor films and they film twice two at a time, and then it's like a year ahead.

SPEAKER_05 31:03

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 31:04

I don't think it's that far ahead. Like either they filmed just now and rapped and then this is announced, or yeah, they're filming now. Or they're gonna be filming and then air it. I don't know. But yeah, I'm excited about that.

SPEAKER_03 31:22

That will be good. Yeah, I'm I'm excited for that as well. And it's probably my favorite reality show. Competition, reality competition. It's too hard for me.

SPEAKER_01 31:31

I watched too many of them.

SPEAKER_03 31:32

Big Brother's entertaining also.

SPEAKER_00 31:34

Did you watch last season?

SPEAKER_03 31:36

SPEAKER_01 32:49

I can in two seconds. I feel like you've seen her.

SPEAKER_03 32:54

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Her and her boyfriend, fiance, something. Hannah Chada from Big Brother23.

SPEAKER_03 33:09

Okay. Is Nicole on?

With um Dan.

SPEAKER_03 34:21

Dan. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 34:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 34:24

Okay, yeah, that's why he's at the forefront of my mind.

SPEAKER_01 34:26

Yeah. Wish he had been a traitor.

unknown 34:28

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 34:29

I feel like he would have been good at it.

SPEAKER_03 34:30

He would have.

SPEAKER_01 34:32

So that's that.

SPEAKER_03 34:33

Lots of fun things happening in reality TV.

SPEAKER_01 34:35

Always. What are your thoughts on Trump falling asleep? I know this is like fall, not not to be political, but what's your thoughts on a president falling asleep during a press briefing?

SPEAKER_03 34:46

Like being I don't even know about that. So that's how disconnected I am.

SPEAKER_01 34:51

Okay. There was like a press briefing on on Ozimpic or something. And okay, let me go back. And he's just dozing off. And I understand. It's a tough, it's boring.

SPEAKER_03 35:15

That is what every white man in church looks like during the sermon.

SPEAKER_01 35:19

I get it, it's boring. But like kind of crazy, right?

SPEAKER_03 35:22

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 35:23

And what I thought was crazier, I again, this is like literally nothing about politics, like whatever. It's just like a funny thing that any president could no one is being like tapping him on the shoulder and being like, don't pan over there. Like keep on or like no one's saying that. And then I saw some of the comments on a video of like of it. Yeah. And it was all like I get it, like twenty, you know, if he needs a 20-minute nap, let him. And it's like, what? This is a official White House press briefing. No. You say, hey everyone, we're gonna have to cut this one short.

SPEAKER_02 36:07

I mean to take five.

SPEAKER_01 36:08

We're gonna cut this one short, and then you're gonna take him and you're gonna say, Hey, why don't you go laid down and we'll return to this uh briefing in about 30, 45.

SPEAKER_03 36:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 36:19

That's not a normal thing. You can't just be like, yeah, it's cool. The president needed to shut his eyes. Wild.

SPEAKER_03 36:27

It is wild.

SPEAKER_01 36:28

I don't know. I just like could not, I couldn't believe it.

unknown 36:31

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 36:33

Um, okay, and this other thing I saw that I wanted to say is I saw this TikTok. This is just like, I don't even have words for this. This is a crazy world that we live in. I saw this video of this girl, and she's like, hey, I'm just making this video because I was being followed by not one, not two, but three men. Because I think she was going to like a train station or a bus station or something. And she said, they literally would not leave me alone until I, this is like funny but not funny, until I ripped out my used pad, waved it in the air at them, and started scream singing disease by Lady Gaga. She said I couldn't think of anything else. Uh probably. I don't I don't think I saw.

SPEAKER_03 37:25

But these men bothering her, like she was in heat, so they like were on her.

League Finals And Sub Strategy

SPEAKER_01 37:32

Who knows? Like, were they going to traffic her? Were they gonna beat her up? Were they gonna steal something? I don't know. But the fact that they the I saw some comments that were so true. It's like they were more disgusted by her period pad than the fact that like they were gonna assault her.

SPEAKER_03 37:51

Yeah. Like that is whether they were assaulting her.

SPEAKER_01 37:54

Yeah, I mean, yeah, harassing her. I'm sorry. Like this is like women are driven to act, do something like that, and look crazy, forced to do something crazy in order to protect themselves. Scream singing disease, my lady Kaga is actually really funny.

unknown 38:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 38:13

But I just like not funny, but whoa. Like disgusting, but also wild.

SPEAKER_04 38:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 38:21

I don't know. I had actually had that to bring up last week, but then we didn't get to it. And I just needed to PSA to the girls out there. I got I guess this is what will keep them away.

SPEAKER_03 38:35

Yeah. Get out your pads.

SPEAKER_01 38:37

Some girl was like, noted, I'm gonna like pour some around, yeah. On me because oh, you're so grossed out by my period.

SPEAKER_03 38:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 38:51

But like you're harassing me.

SPEAKER_03 38:53

Men who harass women and would go as far as to like assault them like that would be grossed out with something like that. So maybe that is smart for women to keep even just like a fake use tampon or something, throw it at them.

SPEAKER_00 39:04

Throw it at them.

SPEAKER_03 39:05

Throw it at him. Well, I'm excited. I mean, the biggest news is our Lord and Savior Hillary Duff announcing a mini tour. I am signed up on every possible thing. I told boyfriend, never has there been a more important time for you to use your PR contacts than this, which to his credit, he's like, it's one show in LA. It's gonna be very difficult. But it is at the Wiltern, and the Wiltern is a large venue. It's where I had my college graduation. Um also I saw Jess Glynn perform there, and it was the most boring show ever. Sorry, Jess.

SPEAKER_01 39:34

Is that in K-town?

SPEAKER_03 39:36

It's the Wiltern. So it's on Wilshire and Western, the corner of Wilshire and Western.

SPEAKER_01 39:41

That's where we saw Jojo.

SPEAKER_03 39:43

It was, yeah, she was at the Wiltern.

SPEAKER_01 39:45

Okay, so venue, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 40:13

Oh. Why can't I Shane Pussy?

SPEAKER_03 40:19

No.

SPEAKER_01 40:19

Now you've made me not Jake Shane.

SPEAKER_03 40:22

Jake Shane had her on his podcast, and she didn't not say that she wouldn't possibly be performing What Dreams Are Made Of. And that, ladies and gentlemen.

SPEAKER_01 40:32

I didn't make it through. I've seen her on other podcasts, and I feel like she was a little bit more. I think she was kind of weird on his podcast.

SPEAKER_03 40:40

My takeaway was like, it's like she doesn't remember anything. I know. Was it you talking about this too? Yeah, and you're absolutely right.

SPEAKER_01 40:46

We talked about it on the podcast. I think we talked about it after we um Well, but I listened, and you're not wrong.

SPEAKER_03 40:51

It's literally like she's just kind of like maybe dissociated from that time in her life, or like because she was in that strange marriage and like a lot happened that she just kind of Yeah, I think like prior to younger, she has no idea.

SPEAKER_01 41:06

And I I get it and I feel bad.

SPEAKER_03 41:09

I mean, also like my cousin used to do her floral arrangements in her home.

SPEAKER_01 41:12

Oh, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 41:13

And she would say things like that, like Hillary was is very like like nonchalant, kind of chill. Like at one point, just handed my cousin her child, like brand new baby. I was like, Can you hold her for a second? Just like went about some business, and yeah, it's just so funny.

SPEAKER_01 41:27

I wonder what medications she might be on.

SPEAKER_03 41:30

Yeah. She looks great, by the way.

SPEAKER_01 41:32

She does look great. And and it wasn't a bad interview, but I've seen her on other interviews, namely my Lord and Savior, Josh Pegg.

SPEAKER_03 41:40

Well, I liked her on that one.

SPEAKER_01 41:41

Yeah, I thought she had so much personality. So that's why I was like, maybe she was just nervous because it is like she is releasing, was releasing the song, and she had anxiety of like how it was gonna be received. So maybe she was just like a little bit the song has grown on me a lot. Yeah, I don't hate it. I've seen people that do hate it, and I'm just like, I don't know. She's not gonna release the same songs that she's done for she's not gonna release Come Clean from 2.0, but also like it was a slow burn for me.

SPEAKER_03 42:08

It took a second, yeah. I'm like, but I'm really enjoying it.

SPEAKER_01 42:12

Yeah, I I'm not like obsessed, but I'm not mad about it. I feel neutral. She looks I was driving the other day and I got the itch to listen to a bunch of 90s country.

SPEAKER_02 42:30

I had that itch a month ago.

SPEAKER_01 42:32

Shania, Reba, Tim McGraw. I was listening to Chattahoochie.

SPEAKER_02 42:38

Or did you listen to You Say Best Baby when you say nothing at all?

SPEAKER_01 42:45

No, but good song.

SPEAKER_02 42:46

It's a good one.

SPEAKER_01 42:47

SPEAKER_00 43:20

SPEAKER_01 43:24

You know, I actually haven't looked into it.

SPEAKER_03 43:26

And I haven't.

SPEAKER_01 43:27

Because I haven't thought about any of those songs for so long. But I just I think I heard someone mention something or I heard what is the what is the Tim McGraw song that I started with?

SPEAKER_02 43:41

When you think Tim McGraw, I hope you think my favorite song.

SPEAKER_03 43:48

I really want debut Taylor's version. Please, Taylor. Please.

SPEAKER_01 43:53

Nah, she answers it now. She doesn't care. Something like that. Dang d-day.

SPEAKER_03 43:59

I had a barbecue stain in my white t-shirt. She was killing me in that mini skirt.

SPEAKER_01 44:05

Yeah, I heard someone say that. And I was like, gotta listen to that right now. And then I like it. I love it.

SPEAKER_03 44:12

I want some more of it.

SPEAKER_01 44:13

Yeah, had a great time. That's like, I don't listen to country now, don't really care. But 90s, late 90s.

SPEAKER_02 44:20

She's in love with the boy.

SPEAKER_03 44:22

Did you listen to that one?

SPEAKER_01 44:23

Strawberry wine. Strawberry wine. So good. Unmatched.

SPEAKER_03 44:30

Wow. 90s country is great.

SPEAKER_01 44:32

So so good.

SPEAKER_03 44:33

We and rhymes.

SPEAKER_01 44:34

Um that's my A-list of the week.

SPEAKER_03 44:36

You have two.

SPEAKER_01 44:37

I have three.

SPEAKER_03 44:38

I'm gonna piggyback off yours.

SPEAKER_01 44:40

Okay. So it's time for A-list of the week. So first one was Now You See Me Three.

SPEAKER_03 44:47

Now You See Me, Now You Don't, is what it's called.

SPEAKER_01 44:50

Sure. Didn't know that. Watched it, didn't know that. Number two, 90s Country. Yeah. Number three, finish Nobody Wants This season two. And cried a lot.

SPEAKER_03 45:06

I think the ending was nice, but it's like I cannot get over the product placement in this show.

SPEAKER_01 45:11

Yeah. I I think that my like undiagnosed ADHD or ADD. Just misses it. I just miss it. I mean Which is nice.

SPEAKER_03 45:19

Especially the face products. Like they really hold on those shots when she's like dropping the drawing.

SPEAKER_01 45:24

Oh, yeah, when she was in the girls' house. Was that what was? Hey guys, spoiler alert. I'm gonna cut this in.

SPEAKER_03 45:31

I'm talking about Kristen Bell. So you're talking about another time that that happened.

SPEAKER_01 45:34

Yeah, when they're at the influencers um Leighton Measter? Leighton Measter. I just heard no Blair Waldorf, you know?

SPEAKER_03 45:41

Oh right, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 45:42

Yeah, when she's putting on her products and her in the bathroom, yeah. So you watched it. What were your thoughts?

SPEAKER_03 45:49

I like season one way better. I think they like the the sister and the therapist storyline happened so fast that it was like it wasn't believable. Like we were expected to just like get on board with it when Kristen Bell's character got on board with it, and it was just like, no, but it the very episode before this, she was like at a dinner party trying to like figure out why this dude. I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 46:12

I was just But I think that is also why Kristen's Bell character Kristen Bell's character was like, What? Like, why are you acting like this?

SPEAKER_03 46:19

Like you Right, which I think is justifiable, but then her the way she was like, Oh, but this has been happening for a while. Well, why why wasn't soft introduced in the first episode?

SPEAKER_01 46:27

Yeah, there could have been a little comment of like, I'm flirting with I flirted with my therapist, or I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 46:34

Is her name Morgan, the character? Yes. I love her though. That character is so funny. I love her so much.

SPEAKER_01 46:39

And now I can't decide are her and the brother gonna get together.

SPEAKER_03 46:43

Yes. You do think they're setting us up for that. I loved the scene. They did but then they didn't. I know. I loved the scene with her and the mom in the bathroom.

SPEAKER_00 46:53

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 46:53

I was like, oh, this is good. This was a good character development. Yeah. I liked that scene a lot.

SPEAKER_01 46:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 46:57

So I mean, of course, I'm gonna watch season three.

SPEAKER_01 47:00

It's just yeah, I had a good time. I was like more annoyed with Adam Brody's character this season.

SPEAKER_03 47:05

But the ending was good. I was like, how are they gonna find their way back to each other again?

SPEAKER_01 47:10

Yeah, I think that it's weird that they ended on like happiness instead of a cliffhanger of like, are they gonna get together or are they not?

SPEAKER_03 47:19

Well, that's what they happened last season.

SPEAKER_01 47:21

Spoiler alert.

SPEAKER_03 47:21

But that's what happened last season. Sorry guys. Right? She ran on the bus. He ran after her on the bus. But at the end, it was like they realize he realized I don't need you to be Jewish because I love you so much. And she realized I want to be Jewish. It's I think it was smart. Like other things I think were good, like the sister and her had such a complicated relationship. Sorry.

SPEAKER_00 47:45

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 47:46

Uh what is her name? The bitchy wife.

SPEAKER_01 47:51

Yeah, what is her name? It's her no Esther.

SPEAKER_03 47:55

Esther. Esther and Chris. What is Kristen Bell's character?

SPEAKER_01 48:00

Joanne.

SPEAKER_03 48:01

Joanne and Esther, strange relationship, but then they had that moment at the end that made her like be like, you're right, I already am kind of Jewish.

SPEAKER_01 48:08

Yeah. So I like I like Esther this season.

SPEAKER_03 48:12

I do too. Yeah, I did too. But again.

SPEAKER_01 48:14

But I'm also like, yeah, I don't know. Now I don't know. Because they did make her more likable. Because last season she was pretty unlikable. Agreed. Now they made her more likable. Yeah. But then they also are like, will they, won't they?

SPEAKER_03 48:31

Right. I think they will.

SPEAKER_01 48:32

I don't know. I think they will.

SPEAKER_03 48:34

Or that's the cliffhanger they've set us up for in this season. It's like, oh my God, because she wants a break from the marriage.

SPEAKER_00 48:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 48:40

He's devastated because he loves her, but now Morgan broke off her engagement. So like, what's nothing but spoilers right now.

SPEAKER_01 48:47

Nothing but spoilers.

SPEAKER_03 48:48

No, but I think it was a good season.

SPEAKER_01 48:50

I do too. I really liked it. It is my third A-list in the week.

SPEAKER_03 48:55

I love that.

SPEAKER_01 48:56

What's yours?

SPEAKER_03 49:01

I'm trying to think if it's of any something I just watch. Oh, I'm currently we're currently watching. Well, first of all, boyfriend loves the Kardashians.

SPEAKER_01 49:08

So I'm watching Kardashians.

SPEAKER_03 49:09

I'm currently watching the Kardashians.

SPEAKER_01 49:11

Have you ever watched before?

SPEAKER_03 49:12

No.

SPEAKER_01 49:13

Okay, interesting.

SPEAKER_03 49:14

Um I think that this isn't necessarily my list of the week, but it is like I'm gonna say something. Courtney's insufferable.

SPEAKER_01 49:25

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_03 49:25

Is that just known? Because I can't believe it.

SPEAKER_01 49:28

No, she is. And did you see that interview of Jennifer Lawrence?

SPEAKER_03 49:31

Yes. I was like, wait, this is what we all think, I think.

SPEAKER_01 49:35

I know, but it's weird because she's like been friends with them.

SPEAKER_03 49:38

I know.

SPEAKER_01 49:39

And so now, like I don't know if it's a joke that like maybe Courtney's in on or what, but yeah, Jennifer Lawrence did an interview and she was like, I was gonna say it, Courtney's insufferable this season. She everything is like a declaration of everything's an announcement on her.

SPEAKER_03 49:54

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 49:54

And it's like true. Yeah, we're all thinking that like she is insufferable.

SPEAKER_03 49:57

Did you see this scene when she and Travis are in like New Orleans and And he makes her run with him?

SPEAKER_01 50:02

I was just saying this. I was like, that was kind of crazy that he forced her to run with him.

SPEAKER_03 50:05

But they're in the restaurant, and she's like, I just hate that. Everyone's like, yes. And he's like, there's a whole camera.

SPEAKER_01 50:11

That was yeah, and I do understand like her not wanting people to film her. And I do feel bad that she feels like she can't go out, go anywhere because she has anxiety about that. She doesn't like people to film her. But that was a crazy thing to say. She was like, Should we ask them to stop filming so I can take a bite? And he's like, You have whole camera crew. A bunch of big cameras in here. What do you mean?

SPEAKER_03 50:34

So funny. But that I digress. My A-list of the week, I'm gonna say, is I feel like there's something else we're watching. Oh, I'm oh loot. Loot is back on season three. Really good season this year. Really, really good. That's all.

SPEAKER_01 50:48

But also just like looking at Ariana and being like, this bitch manifested the F out of her life. Like child going to see those two perform that show and be like, I'm gonna be in this show one day, but not you're in the biggest blockbuster franchise for it.
