SPEAKER_00 2:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 2:20

It's in my calendar. Yeah, mine too. Um.

SPEAKER_00 2:23

Well, in my brain, but yeah.

SPEAKER_01 2:24

Yep. And um, no, okay, so let me just like brag for a second about my fiance.

SPEAKER_00 2:31

Yes, we love Alex.

SPEAKER_01 2:32

Okay. So he's the best, y'all. He is. He's amazing. I fucking love him. Um he so we went to Home Depot and he was buying steaks and twine to mark out where he's gonna put my garden bed. And he didn't tell me exactly what this area was gonna be for. He just started staking it out, and I didn't I knew he was gonna do a garden bed of some like some sort, but I didn't know where he was gonna put it. He was also gonna do he's also gonna make a cat katio to go outside my sewing room window, which is gonna be so cute. And I thought he was staking out the whole area for a cat katio, which I was like, this is insanely large. And in my head, I'm just thinking, I'm like, this is gonna be really, really large. And then he's staking it out, and he's having me like measure and everything, and then at the end, once we're done, he just goes and points to it and is like, your garden. And I'm like, What? You're so sweet, and like, oh my god, that's like no. And then he went over it with the lawn mower and scalped it.

SPEAKER_00 3:36

Um, which he's so husband-coated already.

SPEAKER_01 3:39

He is. Oh my god, he's so husband coated. It's crazy, and um he's so fucking amazing. I love the law. And so, and if you don't know what scalping means for a lawn, it's mowing it until the grass is like as short as you can get it.

SPEAKER_03 3:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 3:57

And um, which actually I have a I have a funny joke, but after this is done being filmed, um uh inside joke.

SPEAKER_03 4:13

Yeah. That's okay.

SPEAKER_01 4:14

So then um what else did he do? So he scalped it, he did uh weed and grass killer on it so that way uh the grass just dies and we can shovel it out and put down new soil and make it pretty and everything.

SPEAKER_03 4:31

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 4:31

And then we're going to eventually rip apart the deck and use the old lumber from that to make the garden bed walls.

SPEAKER_00 4:39

Smart! Which I'm so you are taking down the deck. Yes. Are you gonna make a patio?

SPEAKER_01 4:43

Yes. Yes. That's my plan. I really want to like a nice patio.

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 10:51

So I did go home early yesterday.

SPEAKER_03 10:52

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 10:53

Mm-hmm. Just because I felt like I needed to clear my head and figure some stuff out. Um, but yeah, other than that, I'm good. Um, work's been fine. We had a fun little offside event in Whitefish Bay. It was good. It was very fun because we got to hand out like some prizes for kids because they would do like the spinning wheel and stuff.

SPEAKER_01 14:12

SPEAKER_00 14:14

I finished reading it.

SPEAKER_01 14:15

How long did it take you?

SPEAKER_00 14:16

A day. Not even like maybe like two hours.

SPEAKER_01 14:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 14:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 14:20

A day, two hours.

SPEAKER_00 14:23

Listen.

SPEAKER_01 14:26

Say whatever you want.

SPEAKER_00 14:28

You sure?

SPEAKER_01 14:29

Yeah, I'm sure.

SPEAKER_00 14:30

They fuck a lot. Like every like five pages, bro. It's kind of crazy. And I was like, oh my god, they keep fucking. I'm like, oh my god, we get it.

SPEAKER_01 14:42

Like, holy shit. Like, we get it. You two love each other. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 14:46

Great. I'm happy for you. No, it was it was great. It was good. Um, I will say, going in, I wasn't really expecting it to be like an extravagant ending. You know?

SPEAKER_01 15:03

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 15:04

It's a it's a young adult.

SPEAKER_01 15:06

It's not an extravagant show. No, it doesn't need to end on like a huge amount of drama or whatever. Like it it no, it's just cute stories.

SPEAKER_00 15:16

Yeah, it's just it's this it's a very generic ending, which is how it should end.

SPEAKER_01 15:20

Yeah, I think so. It's very it's very coded.

SPEAKER_00 15:23

Yeah, like they end up together in the end.

unknown 15:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 15:25

That's it. Like that's how it ends. That's good. They don't talk about getting they're they're not married or anything by the end of the book.

SPEAKER_01 15:32

They're just No, because they're in college.

SPEAKER_00 15:33

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 15:34

They're not getting married during college.

SPEAKER_00 15:36

Although it does get messy.

unknown 15:38

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 15:38

It does get messy. Do you remember in the trailer when Nick caught someone outside and he's like, Were you flirting with my boyfriend? That part's messy as fuck. Like, really messy. I'm not gonna lie to you.

SPEAKER_01 15:55

Does Nick get physical?

SPEAKER_00 15:56

Nick gets sloshed as fuck. He gets so sloshed, it's crazy. So I am really excited to see Kit Connor being like really like drunk. Drunk, and it's gonna be so funny. Um, overall, though, with like my thoughts on it. I really liked it. It's a good ending. There are some things that I feel like are a little unknown and unaware. Um, this does contain spoilers, possibly for the movie. So if you're okay if I talk about that, otherwise I won't. So anyway, sorry, we had to get more comfortable. It's good. It's do you remember Tao and El?

SPEAKER_01 16:38

Yes, I love them.

unknown 16:41

What?

SPEAKER_01 16:42

They break up.

SPEAKER_00 16:46

Yes. They break up.

SPEAKER_01 16:49

They stay broken up?

SPEAKER_00 16:51

That's the thing. It doesn't really clarify if they're good or not.

SPEAKER_01 16:56

Maybe they'll clarify in the show.

SPEAKER_00 16:58

In the movie, I hope they clarify because like in the book, it's very like, oh, well, because she's going to um Lambert College, which is far.

SPEAKER_01 17:07

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 17:08

So it's like, it's kind of like, you know, for a while in the first few books and the first few seasons, it's kind of like will they, won't they type of thing.

unknown 17:17

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 17:17

But they do, and now I'm like, I don't remember if they're really together by the end of this book. And I'm hoping that they change that in the movie.

SPEAKER_01 17:26

Or at least clarify it.

SPEAKER_00 17:28

At least have it clarified that if they decide to remain friends. I if they don't get back together in this book, I know that they are still friends.

SPEAKER_01 17:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 17:35

Regardless.

SPEAKER_01 17:36

However, that did make me a little sad, but maybe they were just better off as friends.

SPEAKER_00 17:40

And sometimes that is the case. And I feel like the way Alice, if that's the case, then Alice did write that to the point where there is kind of some realism behind it. Because not all, like sometimes relationships like that don't last, and that's fine. So I think that might have been the reason why she had done it. Um lot of stuff with Nick's brother, too.

SPEAKER_01 18:04

Nick's brother was not a good person.

SPEAKER_00 18:05

No.

SPEAKER_01 18:06

What about uh Charlie's sister?

SPEAKER_00 18:08

Tori ends up with that one guy by seas from season three.

SPEAKER_01 18:14

And then how's their other friend? The asexual one.

SPEAKER_00 18:17

He doesn't exist in this. He's not real. He's made up. Are you talking about uh oh my god, don't tell me. I was literally watching this last night. Holy shit. Isaac. Isaac's not in the book. He's not he's not in the book. He's he's a made-up character. Did you not know this? Did you know Charlie has a baby brother in the book? Do you think maybe you should read the book? Maybe! He's not in the he's not in the book. He's not real. It's only uh Yeah, Isaac's not actually it's a different person, I think. There is another person, but I don't think that they're in the show. I think Isaac is in their place instead.

SPEAKER_01 19:17

Is like his baby brother supposed to be asexual? He's too young to figure it out.

SPEAKER_00 19:24

His brother's like five.

SPEAKER_01 19:25

I was gonna say, okay, baby brother usually means Charlie's baby brother is not in the show.

SPEAKER_00 19:31

He's in the books, he's not in the show. Isaac is in the show, but he's not in the books. It's a different friend in the books that is isn't in the show.

unknown 19:41

Okay. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 19:44

Other than that, I've no judgment, like at all. But I'm just like dumbfounded.

SPEAKER_00 19:49

You just didn't know that.

SPEAKER_01 19:50

No.

SPEAKER_00 19:50

Claire didn't know that either.

SPEAKER_01 19:52

It's crazy.

SPEAKER_00 19:53

I do think you should read them though. Yeah. They're very quick. They're very quick. Um but and now that the whole series is over, you can read them pretty easily. Yeah. Because you have can we talk about how you have them and you don't read them? I might as well buy them from you. Because I've read them. Respectfully.

unknown 20:14

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 20:16

I I guarantee you if you read the first one tonight, you'd be done.

SPEAKER_01 20:19

It's like a collection.

SPEAKER_00 20:20

No, I know. You should read them though. They're really good.

SPEAKER_01 20:22

I know.

SPEAKER_00 20:22

I promise. I know. And you'd get them through them very quickly.

SPEAKER_01 20:25

I know.

SPEAKER_00 20:26

And plus, who knows, it might get you into crap graphic novels. Not comic books, but graphic novels. There's a difference.

SPEAKER_01 20:32

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

SPEAKER_00 20:34

There's a there's a difference, trust me.

SPEAKER_01 20:35

I know. There's also a difference between that and manga. Or like anime.

SPEAKER_00 20:39

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway, it was really cute. I liked it. I definitely think it was a proper, satisfying ending. I do think fans will like it. I do think fans will like the movie as well. Because it's just been so popular for so long and it's always been successful, so I don't see why it wouldn't be successful now, if that makes sense.

SPEAKER_02 21:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 21:01

Um but it was good. I think Heartstopper Forever will be really good too. There was a lot of stuff in there that I didn't really know was gonna happen, to be honest, and I'm not gonna say what it is, just because I want you to be surprised by it.

unknown 21:15

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 21:16

Um but very good. I'm trying to get Claire caught up because I don't think Claire's seen season three. Because she was like, she was like, Jonathan Bailey's in it? And I was like, yeah. For like two seconds, but he's in it. Yeah. He's like an author or something. Yep, he is. And then the girl who played uh Captain America's girlfriend, isn't it too? He's she's uh Nick's aunt. Peggy Carter from Captain America the First Avenger. The British girl.

SPEAKER_01 21:46

Peggy Carter?

SPEAKER_00 21:47

Peggy Carter. Captain America's that actress is Nick's aunt in season three.

SPEAKER_01 21:54

Oh shit.

SPEAKER_00 21:59

Which is crazy.

SPEAKER_01 22:00

Maybe Scarlett Johansson's in season in the movie then.

SPEAKER_00 22:03

Really don't think so?

SPEAKER_01 22:05

Oh, come on. Jonathan Bailey can do it, so she still can show you.

SPEAKER_00 22:07

Scarlett Johansson's not British.

SPEAKER_01 22:10

No, fair enough.

SPEAKER_00 22:13

That'd be cool, but she's not British.

SPEAKER_01 22:15

But what's funny about these- I forgot that that was a necessary point.

SPEAKER_00 22:18

Yes. Um, Nick is a huge Marvel fan in the book. And in the in the show, too. Charlie hates Marvel. But now Joe Locke is literally Wiccan in Marvel, which I think is so funny and so ironic and hilarious. Um, but yeah, I would give it probably an 8 out of 10.

unknown 22:36

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 22:36

Solid 8 out of 10. I really liked it. I thought it was great. You were right though. A lot of digging up on Nick's past.

SPEAKER_01 22:45

Really?

SPEAKER_00 22:47

I actually was am not ready to watch, let's just say I'm not ready to watch Kit Connors.

unknown 22:52

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 22:54

It might be an emotional, an emotional movie. So. But it is it is really good, and there is a happy ending, which is great. Which I really, really liked. Um okay, so moving on. How's um how's

Sara has started "Poolside"

SPEAKER_00 23:10

poolside going for you? Good. Yeah? Yeah. Do you like it so far?

SPEAKER_01 23:14

Yeah, it's good.

SPEAKER_00 23:15

It's very cute. I like the Charleston uh vibe because it makes me want to go to Charleston.

SPEAKER_01 23:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 23:22

Because like just the beach and just the pool and just knowing that you have like, I don't know, like I really love obviously I grew up in the South, so I automatically love the South.

SPEAKER_01 23:32

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 23:32

But I really like that vibe of just like where it's almost like always warm type of thing. Yep. But I really enjoyed it because there's a lot of um new, it's from the perspective of each character, too.

SPEAKER_02 23:46

Oh, that's fun.

SPEAKER_00 23:47

Yeah. But like if you look closely, it'll say Chuck, Tommy on each page. So on each chapter.

SPEAKER_01 23:55

Oh. So Yeah, I think I've only gotten through the first chapter yet.

SPEAKER_00 23:58

Yeah, so it probably said Chuck.

SPEAKER_01 24:00

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 24:00

Next chapter will probably say Tommy, and then it'll probably say Chuck, Tommy.

SPEAKER_01 24:03

Oh, that's gonna be confusing for me.

SPEAKER_00 24:05

No, it's not as bad as you think, actually.

SPEAKER_01 24:06

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 24:07

You would think sometimes I struggle with that, but it's third person.

SPEAKER_01 24:11

Oh, nice.

SPEAKER_00 24:12

So it's not like I, like I can't do that.

SPEAKER_01 24:14

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 24:15

That's how the deal was, and I couldn't do it. Oh I couldn't do it because it was going from perspective from perspective from Hannah to and Garrett back and forth, and I was like, I can't remember who I'm reading about right now. That's where I struggled. This is third person, and it would be like Tommy's blank did this, Chuck's feelings felt this, blah blah blah. So it's third person. Oh, it's a lot easier to understand.

SPEAKER_01 24:37

Makes sense.

SPEAKER_00 24:37

And that's one of the things I liked about it. But let me let keep me updated on it because it's fantastic.

SPEAKER_01 24:43

Dive deeper into it.

SPEAKER_00 24:44

No pun intended.

SPEAKER_01 24:47

How are you liking my book?

Nick has started "How to Juggle Ballads and Blades"

SPEAKER_00 24:49

I like it so far, and I also like that it's kind of like shorter.

unknown 24:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 24:52

It's gonna be an easy quick read for me. Um I was looking for an audiobook. Sucks there's no audiobook, but yeah, um I do like it so far.

SPEAKER_01 25:01

I You know, I've been seeing a lot of like podcast episodes about it.

SPEAKER_00 25:05

Really?

SPEAKER_01 25:06

Yeah, like people reviewing this book. Because I was trying to find the audiobook on uh like YouTube or something? On Spotify. And yeah, a lot of people have reviewed the book, which is interesting. I haven't like listened to any of them.

SPEAKER_00 25:18

It has like a four-star on Goodreads.

SPEAKER_01 25:20

That's cool.

SPEAKER_00 25:21

That's really good.

SPEAKER_01 25:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 25:22

Um, well, we have uh we follow the author, obviously, and sh and they post about it every now and then, which I think is cool. So I'm glad that we get to see I get to see their like art for it and stuff, which I think is great. But yeah, the author, they're really cool, and I'm liking their way of writing so far. So I'm excited to see kind of where that goes. Um, which I'm I like it so far. I I don't want to say too much. Obviously, I mean like I don't want you to say too much.

SPEAKER_01 25:49

We will say more once we're done with each other's books.

SPEAKER_00 25:52

Yes. Once I I finish How to Juggle Ballads and Blades and you finish Poolside, there will be a full-on review.

SPEAKER_01 25:59

Yes, there will be.

SPEAKER_00 26:00

And it's most likely gonna be in a couple weeks, it'll probably be a bit. Just because there's a little bit of, you know, size difference between these books.

SPEAKER_01 26:10

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 26:11

So you're gonna need a little more time.

SPEAKER_01 26:12

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 26:13

Which is fine.

SPEAKER_01 26:14

And it it did, mind you, it did take me a while to get through this one.

SPEAKER_00 26:17

Did it?

SPEAKER_01 26:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 26:18

Were there some things you were kind of iffy about?

SPEAKER_01 26:21

Or it was just there's a lot more describers than there is dialogue. Oh. So, like, you know, take for example heated rivalry. There's so much dialogue. And granted, there's a lot of like perspective thoughts going on.

SPEAKER_02 26:38

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 26:39

So this is more like you're um like describing the background, describing what they're doing, describing what they're going to go do, and so like there can be whole scene changes in one paragraph. And so it's I mean, it's very fast paced, but it it's also like I had to reread a few pages because I was like, oh, what's wait, what, wait, what?

SPEAKER_00 27:02

It'd be like that sometimes.

SPEAKER_01 27:03

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 27:04

And um I'm not gonna lie to you. I'm gonna be completely honest with you. I had that a lot with Song of Achilles.

SPEAKER_01 27:11

Yeah, makes sense.

SPEAKER_00 27:12

Just like because I had to make sure I knew what I was reading.

SPEAKER_01 27:14

Yes. That makes sense. Um but yeah, so there's not a lot of whole whole lot of like conversations happening.

SPEAKER_00 27:22

Okay. So that'll still be interesting. Kind of like watching a silent film almost. No, bad, bad analogy. Okay. Um yeah, I I do I do like it so far. I'm excited to deep dive into it and see how it goes. Yeah. Because I definitely think the idea of it's really cool. Like, you know, a sapic romance, Renaissance Fair, that sounds awesome.

SPEAKER_01 27:48

Yeah. So slow burn for sure.

SPEAKER_00 27:51

It is a slow burn. See, I think you and I are very different

Slow Burns Debate

SPEAKER_00 27:55

on slow burns perspective. I personally don't mind slow burns, depending on how slow the burn is.

SPEAKER_01 28:03

The slow burn has to have yearning. Like terrible aching yearning.

SPEAKER_00 28:10

Tough guy. Tough guy was a slow burn, in my opinion. Or was it no, wait, which one was a slow burn? Out of all these, one of them was a slow burn. Which one was it? Was it common goal?

SPEAKER_01 28:26

No, I think it was tough guy. Tough guy took a minute. Tough guy took a minute for sure. That was a slower burn. Um, but it was like halfway through the book when they finally got together.

SPEAKER_00 28:35

Officially, yeah. Officially. They had kissed, but like it wasn't like again, will they want they type of thing.

SPEAKER_01 28:42

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:43

But like, I personally kind of like the buildup to that. The um the You know what I I'm sorry. Wait, go on.

SPEAKER_01 28:55

No, clearly you have something in your brain.

SPEAKER_00 28:57

There's this book coming out. Yeah, I can't get stuff. And I don't know, I don't remember what it's called, but I keep seeing ads for it on our Instagram. And I saved it to our Instagram, so if you're ever on our Instagram, you can look through. I have like tons of post saves about new books coming out.

SPEAKER_02 29:11

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 29:12

But there's this book coming out about two uh neighbors in an apartment.

SPEAKER_03 29:18

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 29:19

And one of the quotes was just like, I saw you naked, we shouldn't be talking, and he's just and it's just like kind of like escalates from there. Like, I like that kind of story where like you like they clearly like each other, but then they accidentally walk in on each other showering or whatever the fuck it is, and then it kind of like builds up more and more stuff like that happens to the point where they're like, fuck it. I love that kind of story. I think that type of slow burn is great.

SPEAKER_01 29:44

That type of slow burn, that is great.

SPEAKER_00 29:46

That is fantastic. The hinting of it. Yeah, that's yearning.

SPEAKER_01 29:49

Like that's that is great. You the when I think of yearning, I think of I gotta send you that later now. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 29:56

Um because we're gonna read that one.

SPEAKER_01 29:57

Sorry, my left nostril just keeps dripping. Um When I think of yearning, I think of Jonathan Bailey in season two of Bridgerton.

SPEAKER_00 30:12

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 30:13

That is my definition of yearning.

SPEAKER_00 30:15

Oh my god, with what's her name?

SPEAKER_01 30:17

Um I can't remember her name.

SPEAKER_00 30:18

She's so cute.

unknown 30:20

Fuck her.

SPEAKER_00 30:21

I can't remember her name either, but she's gorgeous. Um, and so is he. Uh, but yeah, no, totally. I totally get that. But I think that's where this book is so far. It's so far, it's there's not much yearning, but it is a slow burn.

SPEAKER_01 30:33

There's yearning from because every the whole book is from Chicot's perspective.

unknown 30:38

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 30:39

And so there is some yearning on her side, but it's because you don't really get to see Monty's point of view. Um it's just it like she doesn't have the guts to do anything about it yet. And for at least for a while. And so it's just a lot of, yeah, will they, won't they?

SPEAKER_00 31:03

Okay. I'm excited about that though. I I feel like you and I have very different takes on slow burns, though. I kind of like slow burns, again, depending on what the slow burn is.

SPEAKER_01 31:13

Slow yeah, like, but like, you know, we we're rehashing this conversation. This is going back around in a circle.

SPEAKER_00 31:17

Sorry, I didn't mean to do that. It's okay, but it's just fun to talk about.

SPEAKER_01 31:21

Yeah, it's just yeah, once again, it's the I if I want to read a slow burn, I want to read it because of the yearning, not because of the oh she's cute, oh they're cute.

SPEAKER_00 31:32

Good night. Literally.

SPEAKER_01 31:35

And then that's the same thing over and over and over again. I'm like, no, I want to see the scenes that like Steamy. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 31:45

Is that so slowburn is definitely not your favorite trope?

SPEAKER_01 31:48

No.

SPEAKER_00 31:49

What is your favorite trope?

SPEAKER_01 31:51

Just a lot of sex.

SPEAKER_00 31:54

She said, just a lot of sex. That's fucking hilarious.

SPEAKER_01 31:58

If it's anything my favorite It's good though, I agree. If it's anything my favorite Disney one of my favorite Disney princesses growing up was Booty and the Beast.

SPEAKER_00 32:07

Belle?

SPEAKER_01 32:09

Yeah. Yeah, she's cool. Yeah. So if you take from that, then go forward into what kind of books I like. Very much like Hades and Persephone.

SPEAKER_00 32:21

Are you interested in like the monstrous mut or no?

SPEAKER_01 32:25

Maybe.

SPEAKER_00 32:25

Maybe? Maybe because we were I think we were recommended some stuff for.

SPEAKER_01 32:29

I think I have some stuff from that book fair that might be monster.

SPEAKER_00 32:33

Yeah, and I know I there should be some in um damsels after dark at Wellbird Damsel in that area.

SPEAKER_01 32:39

Oh, oh yes.

SPEAKER_00 32:40

Because there's a vampire section, I think there's a monster section too.

SPEAKER_01 32:42

I think I have some for books. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 32:44

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 32:45

And we might be able to go back there today.

SPEAKER_00 32:48

Can we?

SPEAKER_01 32:48

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 32:48

I thank God. I was hoping you'd I was really hoping you'd want to go. Because I really want to go. Um, but yeah, no, I love a good slow burn depending on what it is. I gotta send you that um book though. It looked so cute. I think it comes out in August. Um, but anyway, our books are going well, obviously.

SPEAKER_01 33:08

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 33:09

And we will be reviewing them as soon as we're done. Trust me, I I I usually run the Instagram.

SPEAKER_01 33:15

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 33:15

Just being real. I usually run the Instagram. I am there's nothing wrong with that. I just want to do it.

SPEAKER_01 33:22

Yeah. And I have no energy to do it.

SPEAKER_00 33:25

There's nothing wrong with that.

SPEAKER_01 33:27

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 33:27

When I first started this, I said all I need.

SPEAKER_01 33:30

Huh? Some people hire people to do it. Yeah, and I I like to do it for fun.

SPEAKER_00 33:34

I think it's fun. Me personally, I remember when we started doing this, when I asked you about it, I was like, all I need from you is to show up.

SPEAKER_01 33:40

Yeah, quite literally. All I need from you, and you're like, the one time I tried to help with the lights, I started breaking things.

SPEAKER_00 33:46

Our set was falling apart. I was like, sit down. Leave.

SPEAKER_01 33:50

Literally when Jenk when Jenkins was here and I was just sitting and he was just like, Are you gonna help? But I'm like, last time I helped, I almost broke something. So then he started laughing. Yeah. I was like, no, I'm not gonna help. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 34:02

And I told you not to, too. I was like, yeah, she likes, yeah, trust me, Jinx. Like it was a whole it was a whole thing.

SPEAKER_01 34:07

It's a whole thing.

SPEAKER_00 34:07

It was a whole thing.

SPEAKER_01 34:08

And he thought it was funny.

SPEAKER_00 34:10

He did think it was funny. Um, but yeah, we're I love running on Instagram. I can send um the new books. Yeah, I'll I'll show you what I have saved. I have a lot of good stuff saved that I'm excited about. Some sort stuff hasn't even come out yet. Like Taylor E. Weston, the author of Poolside, is writing a siren romance.

SPEAKER_01 34:31

That's interesting. That's gonna be really interesting.

SPEAKER_00 34:34

Mm-hmm. Which I think is really exciting. I think it's really exciting. I'm really excited about that.

SPEAKER_02 34:39

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 34:40

Um talk about some movies.

Movie Talk

SPEAKER_00 34:43

We did kind of already talk about Heartstopper. Um we will be watching, so for those who don't know, that does come out tomorrow. Because this is, say, you know, this is released on Thursday, so that does come out tomorrow.

SPEAKER_01 34:53

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 34:54

We will not be watching it tomorrow, though. We will be watching it on Sunday night.

SPEAKER_01 34:57

Yep, and we will re review it next episode.

SPEAKER_00 34:59

Yes, we will do a full review of it next episode. Um and we'll see how that goes, which will be fun. But I watched three different movies recently.

SPEAKER_01 35:12

Yes, you did.

SPEAKER_00 35:13

Mm-hmm. I think I was telling you about them. So the first one's called Pillion. I think that's how you pronounce it.

SPEAKER_01 35:19

It's with um I'm gonna just gonna pull it up as a reference.

SPEAKER_00 35:23

Yeah, I think that's how it's pronounced, although don't like officially quote me on that.

SPEAKER_01 35:29

Oh yes, Pillion, I know exactly what it's like.

SPEAKER_00 35:31

It's in England.

SPEAKER_01 35:32

It's um Oh my god, dad, the actor, that they're both really hot. Okay, first of all, listen Skarsgaard and Harry Melling.

SPEAKER_00 35:41

Yes, and Alexander Skarsgard, his brother is Pennywise the Clown.

SPEAKER_01 35:45

Oh!

SPEAKER_00 35:46

Okay, makes sense. Um and their dad is in the MCU, actually. He's in the Thor movies.

SPEAKER_01 35:53

Bill Skarsgard? No.

SPEAKER_00 35:55

Um Stellan? Yeah. I think that's his name. Can I see?

SPEAKER_01 35:59

He's in I know him from Mamma Mia.

SPEAKER_00 36:01

Yes, he's in Mamma Mia, and he's also in the Dune movies, and he's in um the MCU as well.

SPEAKER_01 36:08

But that's who is he in the MCU?

SPEAKER_00 36:11

He's in the Thor movies, he's like the scientist that works with um Natalie Portman.

SPEAKER_01 36:16

Yes. That's her dad, isn't it?

SPEAKER_00 36:18

No, it's not her dad, it's just like someone that works with her.

SPEAKER_01 36:20

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 36:21

And then eventually he works with SHIELD in the Avengers movie.

SPEAKER_01 36:24

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 36:25

Um yeah, so it's those two actors. Here's kind of the premise of it. And listen.

SPEAKER_01 36:31

He has six siblings.

SPEAKER_00 36:32

Yeah, there's a lot of them. There's a lot of them.

SPEAKER_01 36:35

Wow. Anyways, sorry.

SPEAKER_00 36:38

So great. I saw I saw a lot of clips from it, and I was like, this, I just need to watch this. Because you know, most of the time I'll be scrolling on Instagram or TikTok, and do you know what DramaBox is? Where it's like those like reels of a story that you kind of have to follow on Instagram.

SPEAKER_01 36:57

Oh my god, I love those.

SPEAKER_00 36:58

I do too, but they're so like cringy.

SPEAKER_01 37:01

So into it. I do too, and you're like, what's gonna happen?

SPEAKER_00 37:04

You have to like pee and I'm like, girl.

SPEAKER_01 37:07

I cannot tell you how many times. Oh my god, Alex, do not yell at me, but I cannot tell you how many how much of my money I have spent towards that bullshit just to finish watching a stupid hockey romance.

SPEAKER_02 37:21

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 37:21

That is the cringiest thing on the planet, but oh my god, I have okay. You keep talking about Pillion. I am finding somebody that I need to fucking show you that I'm have like a tiny little crush on.

SPEAKER_00 37:35

First of all, Pillion is no this um we um have not really discussed much of this, and it's not really something that we have talked about, but it's very BDSM. Very BDSM. Like the Skarsgard's character, he almost barely talks in the movie. He's telling him what to do. Because like I think in that type of relationship, sometimes there's certain roles, if you know what you mean by that. Have you heard of this? Is it how in BDSM sometimes there's roles for each partner? So it was very weird. I'm not gonna lie. It wasn't my favorite. I didn't like it that much. However, the actors did an amazing, phenomenal job. I loved their performances as these characters. Are you gonna watch it or no?

SPEAKER_01 38:39

Um, I mean, I would like to, but if it makes me uncomfortable, then I'm not gonna lie to you, Sarah.

SPEAKER_00 38:48

I almost turned it off.

SPEAKER_01 38:51

Okay, so maybe not.

unknown 38:53

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 38:53

Um I just I I think that I just it I wasn't a big fan of it. Um then again, like I'm sure some people enjoy it, and that's great. It's a good movie for people that enjoy that type of category. You know, I just guess I'm not into the whole BDSM shit. You know what I mean? I don't know. It's just do you get what I mean by that though?

SPEAKER_01 39:14

Yes. Okay, going back to Drama Box.

SPEAKER_00 39:16

Yeah, Drama Box. Oh my god, don't get me started.

SPEAKER_01 39:19

Okay.

Drama Box Reels...

SPEAKER_01 39:21

Between you and me.

SPEAKER_00 39:26

Oh my god.

unknown 39:27

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_00 39:29

It's so stupid. Where do you get this?

SPEAKER_01 39:33

I don't know. Because I want to add, um, I don't know how much it is per like five-second episode. Yeah, literally.

SPEAKER_00 39:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 39:40

But it's like 30 bucks.

SPEAKER_00 39:43

Oh my god. There's there's a wrestling one that I watched. Okay, wrestling.

SPEAKER_01 39:47

I watch all the hockey ones.

SPEAKER_00 39:49

Have you? Anyway, we'll talk about this more off-screen. But DramaBox is cool.

SPEAKER_01 39:54

Like, like, like just that's one of these, Sarah.

unknown 40:05

Yes!

SPEAKER_01 40:07

I don't know why I just love this guy so much.

SPEAKER_00 40:10

He's cute.

SPEAKER_01 40:11

And like, he. I really wish he would get out of drama box and go to like actual film. Yeah, honestly, let's just talk about it.

unknown 40:21

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 40:21

Evan Adams. Okay, first off, is this straight? No. This is hetero talk. All right, we're going to hetero talk. Just first No, no, I'm asking if this story that you're talking about is straight. No, I'm not talking about a specific story. I'm talking about the actor Evan Adams.

SPEAKER_00 40:38

Oh, okay. Yes, the actor is probably straight.

SPEAKER_01 40:40

Who's yes?

SPEAKER_00 40:41

Hetero Chatter.

SPEAKER_01 40:42

Hetero Chatter. This from Drama Box. If you guys have ever been on Drama Box, this actor, Evan Adams. Now, drama box, uh, short reels, um, any any of that stuff.

SPEAKER_00 40:56

You come across them on TikTok, and once you do, they're gonna keep popping up.

SPEAKER_01 40:59

They keep popping up and they suck me in, and I know that they I know. I know, I understand.

SPEAKER_00 41:05

I understand.

SPEAKER_01 41:06

However, these corporations, it's a bad term for them, because they're not corporations, but these productions are I've done my research on these guys. They have been they are scripted and filmed within a day.

SPEAKER_00 41:23

That's wild.

SPEAKER_01 41:24

So that's why the acting is kind of cringy. That's why it's poor script writing, but these actors get paid to just, you know, like push out as many films as they can. And granted, the and like the outfits, the styling, the sets are fine. The sets are honestly fine.

SPEAKER_02 41:47

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 41:48

But it and like some of the the storylines are cute and they're good and they're like quality content, and but they're some of them are just such bad drama because it's all terrible, disgusting communication. And it's it is it's no, it's like it's terri it's like so messy to the point where it's just completely unrealistic.

SPEAKER_02 42:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 42:15

Because you have like, let's set it up really quick. Because now I'm just ranting, and you're just gonna let me. That's fine. And in, I think it's short reels. Never read that one. Not Drama Box, because Drama Box is specific to like romance stories. Short reels is specific to this daughter was um like as a child sent away to a st like to a school uh a school, or you know, she was kidnapped as a child, and then she comes back and she's the heir to the uh Edwards Company. Very basic. Edward company. Yeah, we don't know what they do, what they do. They give push papers, I don't give a fuck. It's the fact that she's the like the heir to the company. Okay, and then but like everybody who works there doesn't believe her, they outcast her, they're like, Who are you? Why are you here? Um, like you don't deserve to be here. Like Jesus. Yeah, and then she tries to say, like, no, I'm this is my name, like this is my last name, and they're like, You're lying. That's not who you are. You're lying. You're lying just because you're you're a piece of trash, and like what like are like is that even uh a Gucci dress, blah blah blah.

SPEAKER_00 43:37

No one says that.

SPEAKER_01 43:38

No, they don't that's exactly my point.

SPEAKER_00 43:41

And so it's like that concept of like people bullying in shows. I'm over here like, this is not how bullying actually works.

SPEAKER_01 43:48

This is not actually how bullying actually works. No, and it's so unrealistic to the point where it's frustrating, but all you want to do is root for this girl.

SPEAKER_00 43:55

They make it more brutal.

SPEAKER_01 43:56

They make it more brutal, but also you could just cut out the fucking middleman. Show them your ID and be like, this is who I fucking am. Do you want me to call five other million people to tell you who I am? Because you obviously cannot listen. Yeah, for real. And you obviously just are so stuck up and can't. You're you're so dumb. You're so dumb. You're the worst. Literally go home. Literally go home.

SPEAKER_03 44:21

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 44:21

And so, yes, I pay money to watch these stupid fucking movies. Because they're just like 30 minutes long.

unknown 44:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 44:29

Like 40 minutes long. They're not they're not that long.

SPEAKER_00 44:31

They're kind of good though.

SPEAKER_01 44:32

And so taking me back to Evan Adams. Evan Adams, I he's fine. He's fine. He is a great actor. I really think he has a lot of potential.

SPEAKER_00 44:45

Achilles?

SPEAKER_01 44:46

No. No! That was you! No! No, not Achilles. But like maybe Troy Barrett. Or maybe uh an actor in Hated Rivalry. That's where I rank him at. I'm like, because that's exactly where Connor Story and Hudson Williams were before they went on to Heated Rivalry. Yes, they were, they were, that's right. So I'm like I don't know why I'm snapping, I'm sorry. No, you're because poetry. Poetry slams. Poetry. Yes. And that like that's where Evan Adams is right now. And I'm like, I really think he just has the potential to be an actor on a show like he did rivalry, where you know he doesn't have to play a gay person. But I'm just saying that like Wyatt Hayes. Oh what?

SPEAKER_00 45:31

Wyatt Hayes.

SPEAKER_01 45:33

Yes, exactly. He could play um just he could he has the potential.

SPEAKER_00 45:40

Luca.

SPEAKER_01 45:41

Luca?

unknown 45:42

Luca.

SPEAKER_01 45:42

Yes, he can play Luca! My god. See, he just he has the potential, and I wish he would try and do projects like that and not just stick to I could and not just stick to drama box. Like, listen, you're very talented. Like you're you're very talented. And like a lot of these other actors are too, but it's specifically Evan Adams. I'm sorry, but I'm gonna die on this hill specifically for him. I'm sorry, but that's just anyways.

SPEAKER_00 46:12

Um back to movies. Yes. So Pillion. Pillion. It's it's very like, I don't know. It's drama box-coded? No. Is that what you were saying? No. That's how we got onto this. I don't remember how and I don't care.

unknown 46:29

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 46:30

Um anyway.

SPEAKER_01 46:33

A kinky gay biker game.

unknown 46:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 46:36

Okay, so tell me about Colin and Ray.

SPEAKER_00 46:39

The two main Okay, so yeah, let me break it down. Colin and Ray. Colin is played by the Scarskard.

SPEAKER_01 46:46

No.

SPEAKER_00 46:46

Or no, Colin is um Harry Melling. Harry Melling.

SPEAKER_01 46:50

Harry's Harry Potter's brother.

SPEAKER_00 46:52

No, Harry Potter's cousin. He plays Dudley in the Harry Potter movies from like to the 2000s. Yes. Yep. That's who he is.

SPEAKER_01 46:59

Which mind you, after the Harry Potter movies, he got hot.

SPEAKER_00 47:01

He lost, he did lose a lot of weight, it looks like.

SPEAKER_01 47:04

He lost a lot of weight and he grew his hair out and he got hot.

SPEAKER_00 47:07

He's great in the movie. Yeah, I know. It's if they can see that. Um so anyway, Ray and Colin.

SPEAKER_02 47:17

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 47:17

Ray and Colin are very they meet at a bar, and Ray just comes up and he's just like, it just says, meet me in this alley at this time. And Colin's like, okay.

SPEAKER_01 47:27

Oh, is it kind of like one of those shower scenes between Illy and Shane? Where like you just you look at each other and you just you just know.

SPEAKER_00 47:34

Uh well that part kinda. But then they go to the alley and he comes in and he's just in leather suspenders. That's it. Ray is only in leather suspenders.

SPEAKER_02 47:47

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 47:48

And then you hear zipping. Out it comes, right?

SPEAKER_01 47:53

Do you see it? Yes.

unknown 47:57

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 47:57

It's pierced.

SPEAKER_01 48:04

Of course it is. Anyway. Of course it is. Anyway. You're in a gay BDSM kinky biker game. So what else would you do? So besides get your penis pierced.

SPEAKER_00 48:14

So get the Prince Albert. So they have some fun in the alley.

unknown 48:18

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 48:19

And then it's kind of like back and forth, and he's kind of like, Ray's kind of like, oh, I'm not really looking for relationship or whatever, blah, blah, blah. And then he sees him again and again. And again, and again. But all those times he's going to Ray's house and Ray's like, here's what I need you to do. I need you to pick up groceries. I need you to go to a store. I need you to get these different things. Make sure this is done. All this stuff. He makes him a chore list.

SPEAKER_01 48:45

So he basically treats him like a slave?

SPEAKER_00 48:49

No, I mean, but once he's done with that, he's like kind of rewarded, I guess.

unknown 48:56

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 48:57

So I don't know. Correct us if we're wrong. I don't know much about BDSM.

SPEAKER_01 49:00

It's a praise kink. If you do a good job, because you're treated like a dog. If you do the trick, then you get the reward.

SPEAKER_00 49:08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 49:08

You get the treat. And so if you do, if you go shopping, you get a treat. You cook my f cook me food, you get a treat.

SPEAKER_00 49:15

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 49:15

Do this, you get a treat. Do this, you get a treat.

SPEAKER_00 49:17

I think it's I think that's type of kink for BDSM too, and I think that's what this was.

SPEAKER_01 49:21

Anything can be anything can be a kink in BDSM.

SPEAKER_00 49:25

Yeah, but I didn't know. I like I said, I like correct me if I'm saying wrong information, but I don't know much about BDSM.

SPEAKER_01 49:31

No, you don't. I know you don't.

SPEAKER_00 49:32

That's okay. And I I just don't. I'm just being honest. I don't. But now I know a little more, and that's fine.

SPEAKER_01 49:36

But this is not just don't don't overthink it. BDSM is not a thing that is like you're judged for not knowing.

SPEAKER_00 49:46

No, no, no, I know.

SPEAKER_01 49:47

Because if some people are just vanilla. I just yeah, and some people just they just want plain sex on a bed.

SPEAKER_00 49:52

And that's I just I don't need I just wanted to see what it was like. And I watched it. And it's yeah, it was very back and forth. His he meets Colin's parents at one point.

SPEAKER_02 50:03

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 50:04

And he's like, his parents are very like, he seems to be stressing you out. I feel like you're always kind of going when he needs you, like can like when it's convenient for him type thing.

SPEAKER_01 50:13

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_00 50:15

And the mom's just like, Well, what's your deal? She literally says that to him, and Colin's like, oh my god, please don't. She's like, No, I want to watch you know what I want to know what your deal is. And I'm quoting this woman when she says, No, I want to know why you're such a cunt. Her words, not mine.

SPEAKER_01 50:29

I love it.

SPEAKER_00 50:30

I laughed my ass off, I'm not gonna lie.

SPEAKER_01 50:32

Yeah, I love it.

SPEAKER_00 50:33

Um it definitely spirals out of control. Do you care if I spoil it or no?

SPEAKER_03 50:37

No.

SPEAKER_00 50:37

Spoilers for who those who actually want who wanna watch it, but whatever. Anyway, they He ends up leaving. Ray just leaves. Out of nowhere. He's gone. Gone.

SPEAKER_01 50:50

Leaves his apartment behind.

SPEAKER_00 50:52

Yep. He moves out, he leaves. Never sees him again. Doesn't say bye, anything like that. He's just he's gone. Although he does kind of get Colin does shave his head, has a chain around his neck at one point, like very biker-coated. And I think all these other guys were gay as well and had BDSM stuffs going on with them too. But it just going into it, I thought it would be a lot better than I I thought it'd be a lot better. But after the credits started to roll, I was like, that wasn't for me.

SPEAKER_01 51:28

No, there's probably nothing humorous about it.

SPEAKER_00 51:30

No, and it just wasn't I didn't I didn't I just didn't like it. I mean, like, I'm sure if other people like it, that's great. It's made for those people that enjoy that stuff. I just personally don't enjoy that. You know what I mean? Yeah. But um, I watched that. Another movie I watched is called Mario,

Nick Talks About "Mario" (2018) No not from Nintendo!

SPEAKER_00 51:47

and no, not Mario Brother, not Mario and Luigi. Although that's a good new movie, it's not what I'm talking about. It's called Mario, it takes place in Germany. And since the World Cup is going on, I was like, just watch some gay soccer. Might as well. So I watched it and I was like, this looks cute. Actors are adorable, and I think it's in Dutch, I think. Like, I don't know if they were speaking German, that's the thing.

SPEAKER_01 52:14

I think it would make sense, right?

SPEAKER_00 52:16

I don't know. I'm very bad with geography and like cultural things, but I want to say, look up pool look up uh not pool side, look up Mario 2018. And tell me what language it comes up in. And tell me where it takes place.

SPEAKER_01 52:36

Swiss German.

SPEAKER_00 52:38

Swiss German. What's the language?

SPEAKER_01 52:41

Swiss German.

SPEAKER_00 52:42

Okay, so it's not Dutch. What the fuck was I thinking? I don't know either. Anyway, it's in German. It's a German movie. And it's about this uh soccer star. They're kind of it says they're rivals, but they're really not, honestly. Do you see the actors though? Like click images.

SPEAKER_01 53:05

So you weren't wrong about Dutch. What sorry. Dutch is comes from West Germanic language.

SPEAKER_00 53:10

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 53:11

So it's still German. It's sharing it's a mix between English and German.

SPEAKER_00 53:16

Okay. So did you hit images though? Do you see them? 2018.

SPEAKER_01 53:22

2018. Uh-oh. Wait. Aren't they cute? That's very uh broke back mountain coated.

SPEAKER_00 53:33

Scroll. Scroll's a selfie picture.

SPEAKER_01 53:38

They're really cute.

SPEAKER_00 53:39

So yeah, so they don't end up together.

SPEAKER_01 53:40

He chose soccer, didn't he?

SPEAKER_00 53:42

No.

SPEAKER_01 53:42

Really?

SPEAKER_00 53:43

The blonde chose soccer over him. And he left. And ended up with a new boy at the end. He could have just stayed with the same boy. So Leon is the brunette. He has black or brown hair, one taking a selfie. He wanted to be with um Mario. Mario put soccer first and decided to only focus on soccer. So Mario, or so Leon left. He was like, I can't do this. I'm leaving.

SPEAKER_01 54:14

And then So Leon got the new boy.

SPEAKER_00 54:16

So Leon has a new boy by the end of the movie.

SPEAKER_01 54:18

Oh, okay, good. I was gonna say, if m Mario left, chose soccer, and then got a new boy, I would be like, no, you could have just stayed with the same fucking boy.

SPEAKER_00 54:27

Yeah, that would have been that would have pissed me off. Yeah. You actually might like that one. Look at I enjoyed that one a little more than Pillion, a lot more than Pillion, actually. And then last night, this one's probably my favorite so far. I watched a movie called In From the Side. It's gay rugby

Nick Talks About "In From The Side"

SPEAKER_00 54:49

team, an all-gay rugby team. That doesn't look really cute. And the main characters are Mark and Warren. And this is really messy because they hook up and then Warren's like, I can't believe you dragged me here. I have a boyfriend. When Warren's the one that indicated everything. And then you find out that Mark's in an open relationship, but it can only be with that person that he hooks up with once. There are no second visits. So then all of this shit goes down. It's very messy. And guess what happens in the end? They don't end up together.

SPEAKER_03 55:27

Wow.

SPEAKER_00 55:28

So I don't know why I've been choosing three movies back to back where they don't end up together. But hey, I don't make the rules. I just looked at movies that I was interested in and started watching them, and that's what happened. I mean, I don't know. I don't, like I said, it's not. I think you'd enjoy the rugby one. The rugby one's it's in England. Or yes. You know, United Kingdom. That one's good. Um, so yeah, some good movies.

SPEAKER_01 55:59

Um I know what you need to rewatch next.

SPEAKER_00 56:02

What do I need to watch next? Thumb and Louise? Because I thought we were gonna watch that together.

SPEAKER_01 56:07

No, not Thumb and Louise. Good almonds. Our flag means death.

SPEAKER_00 56:12

Okay, listen. Our flag means death is on the list.

SPEAKER_01 56:16

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 56:17

As soon as I'm done re-watching Heartstopper.

unknown 56:20

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 56:21

Because I know last time I mentioned it, you said you we need to finish Smallville first.

SPEAKER_00 56:26

Okay, listen. No, no, no, no, for real. Listen. I don't know what I listen. I love Tom Welling. I love Michael Rosenbaum. I love Smallville, but I couldn't get into season nine. Claire and I stopped watching.

SPEAKER_01 56:39

I think that's where my mom stopped watching too.

SPEAKER_00 56:41

It's it's good, it's still a good show, but it just felt like it just I just felt like it was the same thing, and I was just like, I'm not really invested as much as I used to be. And I thought it would change with Supergirl coming out, but it didn't. Maybe I'll finish it someday, but I think our flag means death, and I want to read, but I want to watch that while I'm reading Demon of the Deep. The pirate book.

SPEAKER_01 57:05

You could.

SPEAKER_00 57:06

Or I could watch that first and then I'll probably end up yeah. So I think that will be next. Um you need to watch Love Victor, though.

SPEAKER_01 57:16

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 57:17

They're really short. Like it's literally three seasons. The last season only has eight episodes.

SPEAKER_01 57:22

Yeah, because now that Love Island was done,

Hetero Chatter Love Island Season 8

SPEAKER_01 57:24

I need to find something else to play.

SPEAKER_00 57:25

Okay, Love Island. Back to some slight heterochatter. Season eight is over. Yes. Rice and Trinity have won. Yep. As they should. Anaya and Carl are in second place.

SPEAKER_01 57:38

I just feel so bad for Kenzie.

SPEAKER_00 57:42

Girl, listen. Okay. So here's here. So Kenzie did find Dylan.

SPEAKER_01 57:48

But then Dylan became a fucking camera hog.

SPEAKER_00 57:52

Yeah, there is some stuff going around that he was looking in the cameras and then got the waterworks set up. However, you know how Kenzie was hopping kind of a little bit from guy to guy for a while?

SPEAKER_02 58:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 58:01

She did go up to Dylan's mom during family day and was like, I just want to let you know that I do have genuine feelings for him and that this is real. That's when I kind of like, I was like, okay, she's kind of redeemed herself there. But she still got dumped from the island because I think. Well, for some reason, Melanie and Sincere got third place. Listen, I love Melanie, she's a baddie.

SPEAKER_01 58:25

See, I just want Alex and I to go on the show and to just go undercover. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 58:31

That'd be funny.

SPEAKER_01 58:32

And then win a bunch of money. Because we would get first place.

SPEAKER_00 58:35

Yeah, exactly. Because you're you've been dating for over almost almost 10 years.

SPEAKER_01 58:39

Also, I'm just thinking about like I put Alex and I in the situations that they do. And like when the boys go to Casa Moore, I just imagine Alex being so incredibly awkward.

SPEAKER_00 58:50

And just sitting in the corner.

SPEAKER_01 58:52

Just sitting in the corner and like not knowing what to do.

SPEAKER_00 58:54

The fact that Bryce cried over Trinity when they were there, and Trinity cried over Bryce when they were separated was heartbreaking. But yeah, I that I listen, Melanie's a baddie though.

SPEAKER_01 59:06

She's a baddie?

SPEAKER_00 59:07

She's a baddie. She's great. I love her. Melanie's with Sincere though, and she needs to be not with Sincere. Sincere is not sincere.

SPEAKER_01 59:15

But like, okay.

SPEAKER_00 59:15

And you named your child after an adjective.

SPEAKER_01 59:17

So yeah, don't don't fucking do that. Don't fucking do that. Go with a vintage name instead. Alright? Don't, you're not unique. You're stupid.

SPEAKER_00 59:27

It's stupid. Sincere, no, he's my least favorite.

SPEAKER_01 59:30

Okay, so I remember a few episodes when the boys came to Love Island and like all the bombshell boys, the 12 of them.

SPEAKER_00 59:41

Casa Moore.

SPEAKER_01 59:43

Casa Moore, but it wasn't, they're not, it's not called Casa Moore. Casa Moore is where the boys are.

SPEAKER_00 59:49

Yes, but it's still they're still considered Casa Boys. But yeah. Okay, fine.

SPEAKER_01 59:55

So, yeah, Casa Boys. When the Casa Boys came and Melanie was talking with them, Melanie specifically said to one of the boys that she wants to find a man who will settle down with her, build a house, do farmsteading, have chickens, uh plant have a garden, have make everything from scratch, live on a farm, stuff like that. And so she's that's what she wanted. And so then after every boy that she was talking to, I was imagining her with a boy that could do that. And the only one I can imagine her doing that with is Sincere. Girl, you're like this too. Sorry.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:30

Uh but he's the worst.

SPEAKER_01 1:00:33

No, but her and Sincere, like out of the show.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:36

They're screwed.

SPEAKER_01 1:00:37

No, I don't think they are. I will place a bet. Metaphorical bet. I'm not giving you my fucking money. A metaphorical bet.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:48

That they'll still be do you think they'll still be together by the reunion?

SPEAKER_01 1:00:51

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:52

August 31st.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:54

SPEAKER_01 1:00:55

SPEAKER_00 1:01:01

So you think they'll still be together by the reunion?

SPEAKER_01 1:01:03

Yes.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:03

SPEAKER_00 1:01:22

SPEAKER_00 1:01:30

I think they could work it out. I know they're long distance, but I think they could work it out.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:34

Yeah, I think they can. Um otherwise they'll still be friends.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:37

Yeah, 100%. Carl just seems like that type of guy you could still be friends with.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:40

Yep. And um Corbin and Parmita? Would they come back to the reunion?

SPEAKER_00 1:01:47

They should they should so everybody's coming to the reunion. Beatrice, Sean.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:52

Beatrice and uh, what's his fucking name? Gabriel. Gabriel. I think those two will be together.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:58

They clarified recently that they're just gonna be friends.

unknown 1:02:00

Really?

SPEAKER_00 1:02:01

Mm-hmm. There's a live stream. Because she was also coupled up with Sean, remember? That was the police officer.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:08

Yeah, she was. But then she broke it off.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:11

To go to Gabriel, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:13

So everyone that has ever been on the show will be at this reunion.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:17

I'm excited.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:18

Everybody. That's a lot of people.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:20

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:21

Caleb. Jaden. Um. Yeah. I love Caleb. He's a cutie.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:29

Thought he was kind of air.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:31

The reason he's good is because he's not toxic and there's nothing like he's not cut, he's not stirring the pot. Same with Carl. Carl just has a little more personality.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:41

Carl has a that's exactly what I'm saying. Carl has to be a lot of people.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:43

Carl has more personality than Caleb.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:45

But see, like, being toxic is not a personality.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:48

No, no. No, that's not what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:50

It's not a personality. I was just saying that. It's the fact that Caleb, I don't give a shit that he's quiet. It's the fact that actually no, it is the fact that he's quiet. He doesn't talk about his family, doesn't talk about his life, doesn't talk about his home.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:01

I'm pretty sure he's the youngest.

SPEAKER_01 1:03:02

In his family?

SPEAKER_00 1:03:04

In the show. He just turned 21.

SPEAKER_01 1:03:07

21? Why are you on a frickin' game show at 21 trying to find your true love? Do you realize that you've only been on this planet for 21 years? You know, Brian says 21 years. That makes more sense. It's just just stop being dramatic. It's like me.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:22

I have time.

SPEAKER_01 1:03:23

Yes! Like stop being dramatic and thinking that you have to go on these game shows to find somebody because you're 21 and you can't find anybody who will date you.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:34

If anything, wouldn't that make it worse?

SPEAKER_01 1:03:36

It will make it worse.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:37

It's your public figure now. Yes!

SPEAKER_01 1:03:40

Yes! For the next five to ten years.

SPEAKER_00 1:03:42

And everyone's gonna make shit up about you. Yes.

SPEAKER_01 1:03:45

And now you're not gonna be able to find anybody until you're 35 or 40. Good job!

SPEAKER_00 1:03:51

It's so teen, though.

SPEAKER_01 1:03:53

It's so teeny. It's everybody else who's in their 30s that that's when it's like a reasonable time to go.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:01

Rice.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:02

Yes. Um because that's the time when you kind of start to get worried a little bit.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:07

When you're 30s.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:08

Understandable.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:09

Like. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:12

Anyway. I'm just Love Island is a good show.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:15

I know I need to shut the fuck up because I met Alex when I was a freshman in high school.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:19

I was gonna say, um really girlfriend.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:22

But I'm I think I have some good advice there. Yeah, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:25

You're you're not wrong, no.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:26

Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:27

I'm just saying Love Island's still a good show to watch.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:30

Oh, for sure, but I just feel like if you're why? Why are you why?

SPEAKER_00 1:04:33

Yeah. I I have a soft spot for Caleb. I think you knew this. Are you okay with doing that on camera?

SPEAKER_01 1:04:40

Yeah, so I wear shorts. It's fine. I wear I wear shorts because I get chub rub.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:46

What is that?

SPEAKER_01 1:04:47

Chub rub is where your thighs are too thick, right here. And so you got a little bit of fat that rubs together and it makes a rash.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:54

Owie.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:55

Yeah. It just happens when you're a thick girly.

SPEAKER_00 1:04:58

You are curvy girl.

SPEAKER_01 1:04:59

I am curvy. I got an S.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:01

You do. Um, I can keep that in there.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:04

Yes! I like bragging about my butt.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:06

Anyways. Um we will be talking about the reunion though when that comes out.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:11

Yes, I'm so excited for that.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:13

And we'll be talking about Beyond the Villa. I told you about Beyond the Villa, right?

unknown 1:05:16

I don't like Beyond the Villa.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:18

Have you watched it?

SPEAKER_01 1:05:19

Yes. When?

SPEAKER_00 1:05:20

I watched it when it was uh Beatrice. Beatrice hasn't been on Beyond the Villa. You're thinking of After Sun. Oh. After Sun's the interview. Beyond the Villa is their lives after all of this. So you're gonna see how they're doing dating. How they're doing, where are they right now? Where do they live? What's going on with them?

SPEAKER_01 1:05:41

Oh, yeah. Did one of them move?

SPEAKER_00 1:05:42

Yeah, did one of them move? Are you visiting each other? You know, it's like a day in life type of thing. But it's messy because then here's here's where it's gonna get messy. This is where things are gonna get messy. The show has ended. Everyone is out of Fiji, out of the villa, they're going on podcasts and all these things.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:58

One thing they say, it's gonna stir a pot of some kind.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:02

Yeah, they're still gonna be making tea.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:03

It's gonna be making tea, it's gonna get people pissed off, and it's gonna people make people mad. So that's why the reunion is also gonna be most likely pretty messy. Same with Beyond the Villa. And I guarantee you, not all these couples will be together by Beyond the Villa, so they're and then that the last time they're gonna see each other is probably the reunion if they don't work out after that.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:23

So it's messy. It's really messy.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:27

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:27

But I need a gay version of it. So bad. So bad.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:31

How would that work out? Like what do you like how do you think that would work out?

SPEAKER_00 1:06:35

What do you mean? Like if it was a there's gotta be gay reality shows.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:39

But like, would you have both men and women on at the same time?

SPEAKER_00 1:06:44

That I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:45

See, like, think about this.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:46

That's where it's like, well, if a girl gets with a girl, two guys could be dumped from the island.

SPEAKER_01 1:06:52

That's a good point. Yeah. See, like, why haven't they done that with this last season?

SPEAKER_00 1:06:58

Apparently a few seasons ago, Ariana, goddess queen, by the way.

SPEAKER_01 1:07:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:02

Um, she said a few seasons ago, two girls did couple up. So, like, she's and she was like, There's no rules.

unknown 1:07:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:12

So I'm over here like, I need a bye guy and a two bye guys to get together.

SPEAKER_01 1:07:16

Like, everybody thinks that there's the rule of what has to be a boy and a girl. Like, we never specified that it could be a boy and a girl.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:25

Usually Ariana at the end of her speeches go, and one more thing. But she never says that about you have to be with a girl.

unknown 1:07:32

No.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:32

You know, or you have to be with the boy or whatever.

SPEAKER_01 1:07:34

Yeah. There are no rules. You can be with whoever you this is a love show. It's not a nuclear family straight show.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:42

Although in the finale, if you look closely, you can see Anaya and Melanie making out. They're in the pool making out. I know.

SPEAKER_01 1:07:51

Maybe those two get together.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:53

That'd be hot. That'd be hot. Anaya's gorgeous. They're all so pretty. Trinity is a bad bitch. I love her so fucking much.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:03

Wait, who is it making out? Melanie and Anaya?

SPEAKER_00 1:08:05

Yeah. But Trinity is a bad bitch. I love her. Everybody needs a friend like Trinity. Because remember when they're yelling at Titi and she's like, she can talk to her ass. She can talk to her ass. Yeah. And then freaking Parmita's with Corbin. She's like, I feel pretty confident. And Kata goes, I wouldn't. And then freaking Casey is just like Titi's speaking for Casey, and it just goes to Kata. I love her raspy voice. She goes, You're a girl, man. Speak the fuck up. Speak up. Listen, they do meet and greet sometimes, these islanders. If they're ever in Milwaukee for some godforsaken reason, and if Kata is ever here. I would meet Kata in a fucking heartbeat. Yeah.

Close

SPEAKER_00 1:08:46

Okay. Well, that was a fun little rant.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:50

Yeah, I ranted a lot. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:51

No, it's okay. It was funny. It was really funny.

SPEAKER_01 1:08:54

Oh, what's next though?

SPEAKER_00 1:08:55
