SPEAKER_04

So, well, I guess we're gonna talk movies and shows, but movies.

Um movies always come first.

SPEAKER_04

Movies come first. I will start number one comfort movie, and this will surprise you. The many adventures of Winnie the Pooh.

SPEAKER_02

Really?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, I didn't expect that at all, actually. That's really the OG.

SPEAKER_04

The OG from the 70s.

SPEAKER_02

Aww.

SPEAKER_04

I watch that whenever I'm sad and need a pick-me-up. It's so wholesome.

SPEAKER_01

That explains some decorations around your house now.

SPEAKER_04

True. I usually watch at least the scene where Tigger meets Pooh.

SPEAKER_01

Best friend.

SPEAKER_04

It's the best.

SPEAKER_01

Aww. T I double gird, that's but Tigger.

SPEAKER_04

Yes, it does. I love Winnie the Pooh.

SPEAKER_01

I wanna I do question some of their names though, who I'm like, why is your name just Piglet, but yours is Tigger? Like, it could have just been Tiger. But they're like, that's not enough.

SPEAKER_04

Rabbit's just rabbit.

SPEAKER_01

And Pooh Bear is Pooh Bear.

SPEAKER_04

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I don't know. I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

Have you seen the uh the theory that they're all different uh mental illnesses?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Which one did you get?

SPEAKER_04

I mean, I'm not Pooh Bear.

SPEAKER_01

Which one's Pooh Bear?

SPEAKER_04

Uh isn't he Pull it up? Um eating disorder.

SPEAKER_01

Is he an eating disorder? I mean I guess I could have guessed that.

SPEAKER_04

What are the Winnie the Pooh?

SPEAKER_01

Who is OCD?

SPEAKER_04

Gotta be Rabbit, right?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I think so, right? It's been a second since I've watched Winnie the Pooh. I don't I don't think I've watched Winnie the Pooh since I was a child.

SPEAKER_04

Oh Winnie the Pooh, ADHD in attentiveness and binge eating disorder.

SPEAKER_01

You get a trifecta.

SPEAKER_04

Tiglet in general is anxiety disorder, yeah. Well that'll do it. It's so relatable. Eeyore.

SPEAKER_01

Depression.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Uh Tigger is actually ADHD, though. Um Rabbit is OCD, owl's narcissistic personality disorder, or dyslexia. Uh Rue is autism. Uh Kenga is social anxiety disorder. Christopher Robin's schizophrenia, as all the characters could just be manifestations of his imagination.

SPEAKER_01

Damn. And that gave you such comfort. So much comfort. Still does. I'm not alone.

SPEAKER_04

Yup. Gotta love those little animated animals.

SPEAKER_01

That's adorable.

SPEAKER_04

It's a great time.

SPEAKER_01

My my comfort movie is newer. I'm trying to think of like what I watched before this, but this this is one that always comes to mind for me. Is it so lame?

SPEAKER_02

It's not lame, it means so much to me, but when I like say it out loud, I'm like, I know I'm just a girl.

SPEAKER_01

To all the boys I love before.

SPEAKER_04

That is newer.

SPEAKER_01

Gets me. Oh, Peter Kavinsky, please.

SPEAKER_04

You have the floor.

SPEAKER_01

You want to hear something, and this could stay here. I I this stays for the listeners, especially the one in uh Virginia that downloads all of our things. This one's for you, babes. Um, so I had a boyfriend at a time. You met him.

SPEAKER_04

Yep. I don't know where you're going with this. I've met a couple of your boyfriends. Go on.

SPEAKER_02

The one we lived with.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, okay. All right. Narrows it down a little bit.

SPEAKER_01

I remember that I had um I had a dream that like I was in a movie with Noah, and like we were just meeting for the first time, and he like went to like give me a hug, and then we were just like holding hands. No reason, just staring at each other, like smiling, blushing, and just holding hands. And I was like, and then it's very comforting. And then, and then um my boyfriend at the time came up and was like, Hey, nice to meet you. And Noah's like, nice to meet you, dude. Still holding my hand. Uh and he's like, What's uh what's going on here? And I was like, Nothing, we're just meeting. And he was like, Are you gonna let go of his hand? And I said, Oh, I don't really want to. And he was like, You're gonna cheat on me. I I even like in the dream, and when I woke up, he was like, So you're gonna cheat on me with Noah. And I was like, No, because I don't know him.

SPEAKER_04

But that's it.

SPEAKER_01

And that's it's all no no no no no no no. I will I'm not I'm not the type of girl.

SPEAKER_00

But it was really funny in the dream to be like He thinks I'm he thinks I'm pretty and he won't let go of my hand.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Is there anything comforting about the movie outside of your dreams?

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I love I love I'm just like a little hopeless romantic and I love I love romance.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And I like watching, uh, especially with um the characters Lara Jean and uh Peter Kavinsky, that like it's so genuine. Like even if it like starts off with like fake relationship type shit, and then there's a scene with them like really getting to know each other in the kitchen that I'm like, I know the scene. Y'all are it's so honest.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

That I'm like, I love and then now you guys just fall in love together, and everybody loves you, and now there's a whole series with her little or little sister, and it came out, and I'm so excited to watch. I haven't been able to sit down and watch it yet.

SPEAKER_04

Do it and we can talk about that on the show.

SPEAKER_00

Talk about XOXO Kitty.

SPEAKER_04

There you go. To all the boys I loved before. A bit of a different uh kind of movie than uh Winnie the Pooh.

SPEAKER_01

It's a yeah, slightly different kind of movie.

SPEAKER_04

Slightly different kind. I was almost well, actually, never mind. We'll table that because it might be on your list. Um uh I guess I'll just throw out the one that I've already mentioned on the show before. Lord of the Rings. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

I've just talked about it before. That is definitely a comfort movie. I watch it like once a year, the whole trilogy extended edition, good times. Nice.

SPEAKER_01

The comfort movie that I've definitely already talked about before is Coraline.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, I was gonna guess you were gonna have that one on your Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

But it's very it's it's a seasonal comfort movie.

SPEAKER_04

I have a seasonal comfort.

SPEAKER_01

If I want to watch Coraline in July, so help me god someone put me in a straitjacket because something is absolutely wrong with me.

SPEAKER_04

So you're feeling like watching Coraline?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

So next week Bella will be in a straight jacket to start the episode and she'll have to do a shot without her hands. I'm not straight. Fine. Next week you'll be in a gay jacket.

SPEAKER_01

That would do Oh my god, thank you.

SPEAKER_04

Um, anyways.

SPEAKER_01

Um, that might be cute. Oh, anyways. I was thinking about like colors and lining and like a rainbow straight jacket. No, not a rainbow one, a lesbian one. Because like the color scheme would be really pretty. If it was like like pink with like white stitching, little like orange pockets, and the little white heart. Anyways.

SPEAKER_04

What's another one? You have any more comfort movies you want to discuss? You go. I go. Okay, not Lord of the Rings. Okay, uh another uh time of the year one. So me and my wife watch uh Harry Potter every October and November, and we never watch them outside of that, but we watch we've watched them for the six years we've been together every October, November, every season. All of them? All seven.

SPEAKER_02

Wow, shit.

SPEAKER_04

That's just what we do. We both grew up on them. And it's just something about the nostalgia, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Solid.

SPEAKER_04

Snape.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know if it here's the thing. Is it um there's gonna be a whole different episode for like indie films? Yeah, all of the indie films are like my like comfort film.

SPEAKER_04

You are an indie film girly.

SPEAKER_01

I know. I know, I know, I know, I know. Um, but one of them less common that I'm like this movie, not just like comfort movie, but like I I think it like changed my perception of like a lot of things in again. Indie films tend to do that. La la la la la la. It's called Comet. It has just the name. Yeah. You have. I don't know if they have, but has Emmy Rosum and Justin Long.

SPEAKER_04

That's how you know about it, Emmy Rosam. Yeah. No, it was um I was like, I figured you would just follow all of her movies after your love for shameless.

SPEAKER_01

I do love shameless. I I I think I did watch Shameless before. But I don't I don't I don't totally remember the timeline, but I do remember finding Comet in like 2016.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Um, it was just like on Netflix, it was like on like their big like banner.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

And I was just like, oh, that's really pretty. And I yeah, and then we watched it, and I literally was like, oh my god, I love it so fucking much. It was it it to me is everything everywhere all at once before that movie came out. Like you know what I mean.

SPEAKER_04

That movie might be on my list of comfort movies in a few years. I don't, it's just everything everywhere all at once. Yes, it's too new to be on my list of comfort movies, but I have seen it.

SPEAKER_01

It's on my generational strong.

SPEAKER_04

It's so lovely, it's so good. It's so good, it's so good.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, you should get a tattoo for it.

SPEAKER_04

Nah.

SPEAKER_01

Bitch.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um, but like the concept of like timelines and multiverses. Um that for me started with comet. Oh, okay. But it's all just Justin and Emmy, just the two of them, they're the only characters, the last five years type shit. And um yeah, really, it's just all romance in their relationship.

SPEAKER_04

Sounds like a nice big warm hug. Uh, it's not for your soul.

SPEAKER_01

It I don't even know if I'm I don't know if I'd say that either. It's like the way that I look at the menu as a comedy.

SPEAKER_04

It is a satirical comedy. It is.

SPEAKER_01

Is it labeled that? I thought it was labeled thriller.

SPEAKER_04

Uh if you look at it on the surface, it's a thriller, but who does that?

SPEAKER_01

Who not think more about movie? Who just watched movie to joy?

SPEAKER_04

I was gonna say I was wondering. People certain people.

SPEAKER_01

Uh losing my fucking mind. I'm so sorry. Um, perks is on my list. It I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

Perks of being a wallflower for those of you that aren't following. Um perks is on my list, but um that movie was comforting for me growing up because I felt seen.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. In a way, I like not that I I don't consider it um one of my comfort movies.

SPEAKER_04

It's not all that comforting.

SPEAKER_01

It's not. I just love it, but it's deeply nostalgic for me. Yeah. And I think like when I watch it, like I feel like, and I guess like that is kind of like you know, a comfort movie. So like you watch it and you feel like you're like in high school again, and all that things.

SPEAKER_04

But I'm like, for the first time when I was like a freshman in high school, I think.

SPEAKER_01

So yeah, comfort movies somehow give me that like warm feeling, warm blanket without making me cry. Perks of being a walker. Perks makes me cry for sure. Does make me cry. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Well, okay.

SPEAKER_01

That's why I'm like, it it is and it's not at the same time. It's like it's like when you know you're like, oh, I need to cry right now.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So I'm gonna go watch this thing that I know is gonna make me cry.

SPEAKER_04

But like that's super cathartic at the same time. It's it feels nice to cry when you know.

SPEAKER_01

I'm gonna say that cathartic is the same emotion as comfort.

SPEAKER_04

It can be.

SPEAKER_01

One comes after the other. So I wouldn't call them like synonyms, but go, but they can go hand in hand.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, yeah. If you really need to cry and then you finally let it out, it can be very comforting. Right? And cathartic. So, yeah. Yeah, we're splitting hairs at this point. Um, the other movies before I moved to TV shows on my list, um it's just a general category of a few Christmas movies. Uh there's a couple of them, but like again, with the I watch them every year. I there's something about me and repetition that's comforting.

SPEAKER_00

Autism.

SPEAKER_04

Yep. Uh and just yeah. I I watch um, like I said, I watch the Harry Potter movies every year around October, November, and then I transition into Christmas movies. So I'm always watching, you know, the Santa Claus movies, and I'm always watching White Christmas, and It's a Wonderful Life, and Home Alone, and Elf, and just all of those are comfort movies because they're just wonderful. And nostalgic and bring me back to a time where everything didn't feel so crazy. So and also Christmas is my favorite time of the year. I do love a winter.

SPEAKER_01

More of a fall gal, kind of myself.

SPEAKER_04

That's okay. Anytime after summer and before spring is good with me.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, cool.

SPEAKER_04

And here I am in Southern California, where we don't get winter or fall, really.

SPEAKER_01

You want to go into TV shows?

SPEAKER_04

We can go into TV shows. You have a TV show for me?

SPEAKER_01

I kind of do and I kinda don't.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, well, I have like four.

SPEAKER_01

I alright. You're gonna lead a lot of this and I'm gonna ask questions.

SPEAKER_04

That's okay.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, cool.

SPEAKER_04

Um because you were very limited.

SPEAKER_01

That's okay. That's okay. I was just gonna say that like I I don't have like comfort TVs because I is it's too long of a watch. I can't if I sit in bed for that long trying to like feel just like warm and fuzzy, it's gonna turn into depression if I want to feel it, like finish an entire season of something, you know what I mean? Yeah. Um so my my my comfort stays in movies than it does TV shows, but I have thought about what could be like something that does give me that like warm feeling when I need it. Maybe maybe a bit of a cry, but not too much. It's more of a laugh. Um Ted Lasso.

SPEAKER_04

I was gonna say that's the first one on my list. That's the first one on my list. Ted Lasso.

SPEAKER_02

Ted Lasso.

SPEAKER_04

What a big fat warm hug.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Uh yes, it makes me cry for sad reasons sometimes.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

When Jimmy and his dad and that uh and then Roy gives him a hug. God, and then Coach giving Nate the whole speech on the second to last episode. I guess it's not the second to last episode because season four is coming out soon, but uh oh there's some moments. There's some moments. I mean, Rebecca and Ted's one-on-ones at the end of pretty much every season, like especially the first one, where she's just like, I'm messed up, and then he just forgives her and he's like, divorce is hard, it makes you do crazy things right after getting divorced. Oh my god. So those are like the sad moments, but there's so much wonderful, good you know.

SPEAKER_01

Maybe I'll go home and re-watch Ted Lasso.

SPEAKER_04

I just rewatched it for the second or third time uh like a month or two ago, and it's wonderful. It is a big I got s that's what it was. I got sick and I was sick on like a Thursday, and I took Thursday, Friday off work, and I just watched every season of Ted Lasso Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. I finished the whole show in one weekend. It's only like 30 episodes, and no, it's really not bad, and that's also why I think I could do it. You could totally do it. Yeah, like you maybe qualify as slightly depressed if you sat there and did that. Maybe. Maybe maybe but that's okay. Give yourself a big warm hug in the form of Ted Lasso.

SPEAKER_01

Thanks, Jason.

SPEAKER_04

I know. I'm okay. I'm like I I'm usually very against the whole continue making sequels and you know, milk everything out of that cash cow. But it's such a wonderful show that's a good one. But you're like, I'm okay that we're doing another season. Let's see what happens.

SPEAKER_01

I I'm nervous.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, same.

SPEAKER_01

I'm very nervous because to me it's so perfect as is.

SPEAKER_04

I wish it was just like a second show. It wasn't season four, it was season one of a new show. You want it to be like Ted Lasso. Exactly. And it kind of is. Yeah. So why are we making it season four of Ted Lasso? Because Rebecca and Ted are in it and Coach Beard, and that's basically where it stops in terms of the returning cast.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. Maybe maybe there's a whole thing about having to make a sequel than there is to make another season that we just don't know about.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, we'll see what happens. I'm I'm down because I don't know what's happening in that board room. I mean, the timing of that first season came out right during COVID. I mean, we needed that show.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't, I don't think I started watching it during COVID. Oh, yeah, I did watch it.

SPEAKER_04

While we were living with your ex-boyfriend.

SPEAKER_01

Who thinks that I'm gonna cheat on him with no SG?

SPEAKER_04

Exactly. Yeah, if you had ever had the opportunity, probably wouldn't have, but you might have held his hand.

SPEAKER_01

I would not have cheated. I would have held his hand, and if I felt like anything was going on, I would have just broke up with my boyfriend.

SPEAKER_04

That's so fair.

SPEAKER_01

Um and then it would have been super messy for like a week.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, and you could have written a letter to him.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my god, they could write a letter and then I'm gonna leave it inside of a fucking box.

SPEAKER_02

It's so good. He loves so gentle. I love it so much. The fucking chokehold that Peter Kavinski had on me when this fucking movie came out. God damn it.

SPEAKER_04

How do you really feel? I don't feel like you're emotional.

SPEAKER_02

You should get Chico on this motherfucking couch so she could be like, that dumb bitch.

SPEAKER_01

Well, bro, that dumb bitch. She I have to fly her in. Actually, she's coming around. She actually probably this summer, in she's she's coming around this. Is it April?

SPEAKER_04

It is April.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, she's coming around this month. I don't know if I can get her on this podcast.

SPEAKER_04

It's halfway through April.

SPEAKER_01

She got a job in Spain.

SPEAKER_04

She got a job in San Fran?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

As in moving to San Fran.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, no, no. She's not moving.

SPEAKER_04

Doing some work temporarily in San Fran.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah, just a show.

SPEAKER_04

A little far away from us still.

SPEAKER_01

But she's also coming down, I think, for a wedding it was. Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_04

Well maybe we can get her on the show. We could we could fit a third on this couch.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. Probably get rid of the arms and we'll see.

SPEAKER_04

What? We can fit a third on this couch.

SPEAKER_01

I hate you.

unknown

We could.

SPEAKER_01

Shaw annoying.

SPEAKER_04

Um moving on. Comfort shows for me. Okay, so for me, unlike you, I go to sleep watching something since I was like 13 years old.

SPEAKER_01

I also do, I just said the minor YouTubers.

SPEAKER_04

British Baking Show and YouTube videos.

SPEAKER_01

Does that count as a comfort show?

SPEAKER_04

Absolutely, it does.

SPEAKER_02

I have I have I watched the great British Baking Show, and I have seen so many episodes over and over and over again, and I have no idea. I literally every single time I watch them, I forget who made what.

SPEAKER_04

Yep. I do that with High Much Your Mother and Friends, and more recently, Modern Family.

SPEAKER_01

Girl, more recently, even. It's been a couple years for that.

SPEAKER_04

I understand. I do.

SPEAKER_01

Walking into your silly little haha bed and being sick.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, I watched High Much Your Mother when I was 12. I didn't start watching Modern Family until I was like 22.

SPEAKER_01

So that's 10 years.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but you know, I've seen How Much Your Mother 28 times or something like that, all the way through every episode, 200 and some odd episodes. I've seen Friends probably 20 times all the way through. We just keep watching them. I mean I've seen The Office a number of times. I love The Office, but it's not uh The Office is not humor. I don't enjoy the secondhand embarrassment. It makes me uncomfortable as much as I love that show. Same with Parks and Rec.

SPEAKER_01

Uh I think all of these answers are like I know that you're like both of us are like the top of Gen Z. That's the most millennial trait.

SPEAKER_04

True.

SPEAKER_01

I've ever heard. I've watched Friends 20 times.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

How I Met Your Mother 28.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Damn.

SPEAKER_04

That How Met Your Mother is the first show I ever.

SPEAKER_01

Avatar the Last Airbender once.

SPEAKER_04

I haven't watched it anytime. You're welcome.

SPEAKER_01

He just wants me to be mad.

SPEAKER_04

It's not that hard to get you mad. Talking to the mic. See, she's mad.

SPEAKER_01

I'm five feet tall.

SPEAKER_04

You're mad about it.

SPEAKER_01

I'm not mad about being five feet tall. But like the like thought of like short people get angry faster. Yeah. But I'm also just a fire sign, so rage just comes up in my blood, just boiling fast. And I tr I try really hard to like simmer that down. Do you? Yeah. Sometimes it just Sometimes. Sometimes and but those are the times that I regret. Because then I say something like that I I I may or may not mean, but it came out in a delivery that I cannot take back.

SPEAKER_04

The delivery is as important as the message most of the time.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And if I am furious enough, I will burn you.

SPEAKER_04

You'll deliver it in a brick thrown through the window.

SPEAKER_01

Oh.

SPEAKER_04

Right?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I was going still more fire thoughts and was like, uh what's that called? The fucking thing Knuckles is money, but the bottle?

SPEAKER_04

Molotov cocktail.

SPEAKER_01

There we go. That's what I was thinking. That's how.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, that's fair. That's more firey for you. Fire. Yeah. I love a flambe.

SPEAKER_01

Keep going, Jesus.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, that was my last comfort show.

SPEAKER_01

I'm done.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, that's right. Also on the show. Pretty much every episode. Love that. Comforting. Comforting British man that has no business being on a farm.

SPEAKER_01

It's okay.

SPEAKER_04

It's okay. What have you watched since I last saw you?

SPEAKER_01

Oh my god, I saw you last night.

SPEAKER_04

Since I last saw you on camera.

SPEAKER_01

Well, we watched Euphoria.

SPEAKER_04

Euphoria, season three, the first episode. What did you think?

SPEAKER_01

I I think, and I guess, spoiler alert for anybody else that's watching this right now, um, because it it's it's a new one.

SPEAKER_04

It is. It's a whole 24 hours. Well, when you're listening to this, it's a whole five days old.

SPEAKER_01

But that's still.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um I don't know why I'm thinking that like her driving that car up to Knuckles' the the border. Yes. I was like, but the the fence. That's the word I'm looking for. Um I feel like somehow that's a metaphor. Or Sam Levinson's just like, yeah, fuck it. I thought it'd be fun.

SPEAKER_04

It might be both.

SPEAKER_01

It might be both. But like, you know, the the season hasn't really started. Um I agree, slow start.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. But we'll see where it goes. But I'm expecting I didn't like not seeing it. I'm expecting big things.

SPEAKER_01

Did miss Hunter Schaefer in this. Yeah.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

I know she's gonna be in it, but like her, right, right. Her storyline's obviously minor if she's not even in the first episode. But then again, maybe not. I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

This is the most sane I've ever seen, Nate Jacobs.

SPEAKER_04

True. But he's clearly boiling underneath, so we'll see. That'll that'll end poorly, probably.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but I was like, in a way, I was like, is this the healthiest this man's ever been? In a way, such a still a bad relationship. Horrible. Horrible. Horrible. Horrible.

SPEAKER_04

Yep. I'm curious to see where the Maddie and Lexi thing goes. Uh their storylines are clearly interlinked somehow. Um and Cassie will get in there for some reason because she's stalking her old best friend.

SPEAKER_01

Right, right, right, right, right. So there's a lot of fun. Oh, can we talk about also like at least like in the trailer? Do you remember when Nate was like, and she's like, yeah, Maddie's gonna help me? And he was like, my Maddie?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Bitch! Your Maddie is funny.

SPEAKER_01

My Maddie? That's anything it's Cassie's Maddie. No, I still I mean, it's it's Cassie's best friend. Um I mean, I I who I really agree with who had Maddie more in their life in a more significant way.

SPEAKER_04

Well, he certainly had his hand around her, that's for sure.

SPEAKER_01

Girl, but I the way that I would beat the absolute ever living shit out of my partner if someone was like my my talking about their person, yes, but also that it's like my friend. That I would, I, I would, I would, I would that'd be a problem. Insane.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, but you know, I know that hasn't even happened yet.

SPEAKER_01

I know it's so weird but I'm also like because um Lexi is Cassie's sister, right? And she's like hanging out with Maddie, right? How did that happen?

SPEAKER_04

Uh well, probably because they were best friends and already knew each other.

SPEAKER_01

Right. I'm so here's my other thing where I'm like, I don't please don't let this happen. And I'm like, like out of respect, and like I don't I don't know where this fucking storyline is going in the first place yet, anyways. So like I don't know, I don't know how pivotal it is. I really hope Lexi doesn't fall for another person.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, and she stays with Angus.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Like, not I mean, we in prison.

SPEAKER_04

Rest in peace, Fez. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Rest in peace, Angus. Yeah. Um, but like I just think that like Lexi shouldn't have another partner, even though like Fez is in jail or like because Angus passed away. I just think that they should just have left it where it was. And they were so huge.

SPEAKER_04

He was. I really don't think Lexi's character needs a romantic interest.

SPEAKER_01

I agree.

SPEAKER_04

I think everyone has badass in her own right.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, there's enough roam romance, there's enough intimacy. I'll go with that, I guess.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Going around with everyone else that I don't feel like we need another couple.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, okay, that's totally fair.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

I can't.

SPEAKER_01

I also just don't want to put any disrespect on Fezco's name. 100%. Fuck that. You're not moving on from that. And you know, maybe later. When you're like 30.

SPEAKER_04

We'll see.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know how old they're on the show right now. Like what, 25? They're they're because I know they time jumped.

SPEAKER_04

Right. It's obviously post-high school. I think it's post-college too, so they're mid-20s, maybe.

SPEAKER_01

23, 25, somewhere in that ballpark.

SPEAKER_04

Fine by me. Nate and Cassie were married, were getting married.

SPEAKER_01

We went to a college, a Christian college school, okay? People got married fast.

SPEAKER_04

Well, yeah. Well, they didn't.

SPEAKER_01

But like Cassie's a type.

SPEAKER_04

She is.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know why Nate did this, but I don't know.

SPEAKER_04

Um, yeah, we'll see. I've heard Eric Dane did record stuff for this season before the ALS even fully took over. So rest in peace, Eric Dane. Uh I'm excited to see him, but it's gonna be hard and sad at the same time. He wasn't really in this one other than the recap. Um yeah. I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

I am who I am.

SPEAKER_04

God, god damn it. That was a wonderful storyline.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Hard to watch, but wonderful. Enticing. Uh yeah, we'll see. We'll see. It's pretty.

SPEAKER_01

Beyond that, I haven't missed Labyrinth. Don't start this drama here. Don't do this to me.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, we don't even know what happened.

SPEAKER_01

We don't know what happened, but for him ah, there's a whole lot of drama with this show.

SPEAKER_04

This show should have been so much better. Like, uh, he had so much, but that first season was so good.

SPEAKER_01

That and that original storyline was some top-tier fucking writing. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Um, that was that could have been like a master class.

SPEAKER_01

Well, um also like because it was originally like, what's about his life, Knuckle?

SPEAKER_04

Mm-hmm. He was he's in recovery and like was an addict and all that.

SPEAKER_01

So I'm like, well, now that we veered off so much from the first like original storyline, right? How much of this is like still like his life and how much of it. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. We'll see. I don't know what's going on.

SPEAKER_04

We'll see. I think this is gonna be very important for Sam's future career if he sticks the landing here or not. Because they're all done with him.

SPEAKER_01

Oh yeah, it's not looking it's not looking pretty, girl.

SPEAKER_04

So we'll see. I mean, we're gonna be we're gonna we're gonna watch every episode and we're gonna react probably every week before.

SPEAKER_01

Gotta say something.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um, beyond that, I because I I worked my fun fun 70-hour week, I had not really been.

SPEAKER_04

But we haven't seen you in two weeks, and I believe you saw a certain film that I might have talked about last week.

SPEAKER_01

I did watch. I was gonna I was gonna watch say the other there's other TV shows that I do need to watch. I need to watch The Boys, I need to watch Invincible, and I'm gonna watch Exo Kitty. Um so I have I have three shows to be watching. Um I did watch Project Hail Mary. So fucking good, bitch.

SPEAKER_02

I fell in love with the goddamn fucking space rock spider.

SPEAKER_04

Yep.

SPEAKER_02

Um who didn't?

SPEAKER_01

I was pissed also at you.

SPEAKER_04

Amaze, amazed.

SPEAKER_01

Amaze, amaze, amazed.

SPEAKER_04

Why were you pissed at you?

SPEAKER_01

Because I was like, am I gonna is this gonna break my heart if I watch this by myself? And you were like, It's not heartbreaking. It's fun and it's witty, and I cried three fucking times. I also didn't realize how long this movie was.

SPEAKER_04

Well, it's a space movie.

SPEAKER_01

It's great. I was okay with it because I would have watched it for double. I would have watched it for five hours. I didn't realize it was two and a half hours, and that's because I was like, we got to like maybe like an hour in, and I was like, you know, this movie's kind of been going on for a while, and I still haven't seen this fucking rock.

SPEAKER_04

That happens about an hour in.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, and then I saw it and I was like, well, there's no way he's just at the end of the movie, and then I was like, this is just gonna be a longer movie, and I'm okay with that. Yeah, I'm happy. I had my sushi, I had my poke bowl and a drink, and I was fucking. I I was very much like, I'm gonna forget my reality, and I'm gonna be here in space with Ryan Gosling and Rocky. It was the best time, and I had I had the time. I literally today, today, I went to Color Me Mine. I went to the mall. You can see my things. Yeah, I went to Color Me Mine because I had a plate that I still hadn't painted yet from like when I went with my sister a year ago. Um, I just had never found like a like a day off, and I was like, you know what? I think I know what I want to do with this plate now, and I'm ready. Did you paint Rocky? I did not paint Rocky, but I did think about it. But it is space themed.

SPEAKER_04

Did you paint a bunch of red infrared lights?

SPEAKER_01

No, I painted very accurate. Um not extremely accurate. I am who I am, but it I tried my best to make it a very accurate solar system on this plate.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

And it has a quote that is meant just for me. And then I got myself a green crush. And then I also have cease candies. And I know that we don't even talk about food on this. We're not even talking about food on this fucking podcast. I'm gonna try my best not to crinkle it. But this seas candy, they I get the like butterscotch-covered marshmallows.

SPEAKER_04

Not sponsored.

SPEAKER_01

Not sponsored. This is you could you could if you want to. Um, no argument here. These were my like, not just like it was like both a treat and a comfort candy.

SPEAKER_04

I was like, is that a comfort snack there?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it is. 100%. I was like, you know what? I deserve a little marshmallow covered in caramel.

SPEAKER_04

Why not?

SPEAKER_01

That's my shit.

SPEAKER_04

Why not?

SPEAKER_01

That's my shit. And then I and then I came here. Filled up for gas and I came here.

SPEAKER_04

Love it. Love it. Yeah, Project Hill Mary.

SPEAKER_01

So fucking good. God, I think maybe eventually one day that will be like a another comfort movie.

SPEAKER_04

I could say I agree with that. It's so good.

SPEAKER_01

I love the way that NASA is just such such also a hopeless romantic. They're so poetic in everything they do.

SPEAKER_04

W Artemis.

SPEAKER_01

Welcome home, Artemis T.

SPEAKER_04

Welcome home. I was watching From a Plane live. And I'm sad because I would have been able to see it out. Really? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Oh shit.

SPEAKER_04

There's a bunch of videos from people in LA and Oregon.

SPEAKER_01

I only I only saw one video of watching Artemis take off.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, no, it because it's a lot of people. And I was like, that's the coolest fucking thing in the world. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

That's the coolest fucking thing in the world.

SPEAKER_04

I would have been able to see it.

SPEAKER_01

That's fucking insane.

SPEAKER_04

But man, I don't know if you watched it live. Um I was a little stressed out there. I know this is a movie podcast and we're talking about current events, but yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I love space.

SPEAKER_04

I love space. It was literally last week's episode.

SPEAKER_01

As well as astrology.

SPEAKER_04

Um, I was gonna say, I did warn you that there are sad parts to that movie, but it overall is a wonderful, hopeful, not sad, doesn't have a sad ending. It has a hopeful ending.

SPEAKER_02

I was really in here for this.

SPEAKER_04

Which one got you when when you you thought he was gonna die? Because what also got me was Ryan Gosling when he like admitted that he was what his plan was to Rocky. Like that acting was phenomenal there. Like they had him all in the shadow and he turns around and his face is all crying. That got me. Uh, and then obviously the Rocky thing at the end towards the end. Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_01

Even okay, and this was like funny, but it did like make me cry.

SPEAKER_02

I'm gonna cry, I'm gonna cry. I love it. I love it so much. I was like, no, Bella, we can't keep getting movie tattoos.

SPEAKER_04

You're gonna get the rock next to your googly eyes.

SPEAKER_02

I can't, because I was no, I can't, because I was also like, I want a Rocky plushie. And I was like, God, this is the ugliest plushie I want. You didn't get it? I did not, but I was in in my head.

SPEAKER_04

I told the everyone last week that that's where you were, and that's why you couldn't be with us.

SPEAKER_01

That I was getting a Rocky tattoo.

SPEAKER_04

That's what you told me to tell them.

SPEAKER_01

Did I say that?

SPEAKER_04

You said tell the audience that I'm I fell in love with a space rock and I'm going to get a rock plushie or a Rocky plushie.

SPEAKER_01

I will probably eventually get it. It's just right now, it just makes me laugh that I'm like, what is this? What is this plushie? Um I'm at least gonna get a pin.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Um, so funny.

SPEAKER_04

It's such a good movie. I mean, I told them you were on set too afterwards.

SPEAKER_01

But another thing that like made me ha ha hee hee ho ho and kind of cry a little bit was even just like figuring out Rocky's voice.

SPEAKER_04

And like just like the changing out the different voices, yeah. Which apparently the actual voice is the guy that uh puppeteered him, which is kind of cool.

SPEAKER_01

I'm like, oh I I love I love practicality.

SPEAKER_04

Did you know there was no green screens in that movie?

SPEAKER_01

Yes, yes, I did.

SPEAKER_04

I watched this like 45-minute video like breakdown of somebody walking through the whole set, like God bless you, Ryan Gosling, for how much care you took for this movie.

SPEAKER_01

Yes.

SPEAKER_04

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_01

And all of like the the marketing of just Ryan Gosling in his old movies doing it with Rocky is actually really funny too.

SPEAKER_04

I love that.

SPEAKER_01

And I'm so happy imposing for Lala Land and Barbie has been really funny for me.

SPEAKER_04

Oh my gosh. Yeah, no, it's so good. It's it's so good.

SPEAKER_01

I also watched the drama.

SPEAKER_04

You watched the drama? Uh-huh. How was that?

SPEAKER_01

Nothing could have prepared me for what her secret was, actually. Oh, I was like, fuck. I won't, I no spoilers.

SPEAKER_04

Um, don't spoil it for me. We can spoil it later.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Um I wanted it to have just like one more, one more, ooh, one more moment. You know what I mean? But aside from that, I was like, no, this is great, and I think it's great social commentary. And fuck you, Rachel, you're the villain.

SPEAKER_04
