0:43

there is someone behind you, you don't

0:45

do it. I agree with you because

0:47

I have been... I don't know what's

0:49

happening with people. They're just making

0:51

me stop while they fucking

0:54

three-point turn in an intersection

0:56

in an intersection because they

0:58

need to make a U-turn. I honk.

1:00

I'm now the point. I'm honking my

1:02

horn. You yell at me if I

1:04

honk my horn. And I stop because

1:07

I'm worried I'm going to get shot.

1:09

When you flip people off in my

1:11

car. We can't do that. That starts

1:13

roll. You can't live in fear. Welcome

1:26

to The Galey Dose, your

1:28

weekly shot of pop culture,

1:30

dick jokes and general homosexual

1:32

foolishness. I'm Maddie. And I'm poodle,

1:35

and we're long-time squirrel friends, and

1:37

we're here to edgymicate y'all, even

1:39

though we have little to no

1:41

qualifications to do so. Thirteen shows

1:43

in, and we still don't have

1:45

it. Still don't. I don't think

1:47

we'll ever will. I think that's

1:49

part of our brand. But poodle,

1:51

you know what, we do the energy

1:54

to bring people together. That's what

1:56

we do. We do? Yes,

1:58

we're witches. We're fucking witches.

2:00

do to bring people together?

2:02

Y'all last week, last episode,

2:04

we talked about feuds and

2:06

we listed several feuds and...

2:09

Was that last week? Two weeks

2:11

ago, a week, two weeks ago?

2:13

I think it was two weeks

2:15

ago. Yeah. You all have one

2:17

together. Oh, it's like tricks. Did

2:19

I fuck that guy last week

2:21

or two weeks ago? Oh, I

2:23

can't, I really can't. The names

2:25

are so inconsequential and they're all

2:27

the same. Do you remember a

2:29

dick that got away? Like one

2:31

that you had one moment and

2:33

they never got away. They're always

2:36

attached to the most toxic, awful,

2:38

aloof men. They are. You just

2:40

chase those sticks. You just chase

2:42

them. Your whole life and you're

2:44

just chasing the, you're chasing the

2:46

dick dragon. You text him like

2:49

two years later because you're still

2:51

thinking of him. Hey, hey, and

2:53

you just see the three dots

2:55

and then you want to say

2:57

and you want to just scream

2:59

and you just but it's everything

3:01

in you and you'll pay for

3:04

you. I'll pay for your Uber.

3:06

Stop chasing that dragon dick. Don't.

3:08

Yeah, let that dick go. Let

3:10

it be the memory. Yeah, you

3:12

had that you had that one

3:14

moment in time as Whitney Houston

3:16

says. Give me

3:18

one penis in time.

3:20

It was a moment.

3:22

And you had it.

3:25

And now let that

3:27

toxic piece of shit

3:29

go, because when you

3:31

went to that house,

3:33

there was a mattress

3:35

on the floor, and it

3:37

looked like a flop house.

3:40

Yeah. I'm aroused and sad.

3:42

and grateful. So what were you

3:45

saying? You're welcome. Let it go.

3:47

Let it go. To bring people

3:49

together. Madonna. We talked about the

3:52

Madonna and Elton John Few. Big

3:54

news this week. They've made the

3:57

fuck up and not only have

3:59

they made up. Elton John said, I have a

4:01

song that I wrote for you that I've always wanted

4:03

to do with you, and now they're gonna collaborate

4:05

on this song. And he told her, he said,

4:07

and this is your song. Like his song, your

4:09

song? And Madonna would have cried, but I

4:11

think she got her tear ducks removed. Which I don't

4:13

blame her. I think one day I will too. They

4:15

have made up. Yes. Remember, it was, it was, Elton

4:18

John kind of, was big bitchy bitchy and he and

4:20

he and he, and he, and he, and he, and

4:22

he, and he, and he, and he, and he, and

4:24

he, and he said, and he said, and he said,

4:26

he said, he said, he said, yeah. I don't

4:28

like it when she lip sinks,

4:30

blah, blah, blah. And she's like,

4:32

fine, you bitch, I'll never talk

4:34

to you again. And then she

4:36

went visiting him at

4:38

Saturday Night Live. I started

4:40

out live. Yeah. Yeah. So.

4:43

And they're, they're fine now.

4:45

So stranger things, y'all don't

4:47

hold out hope or hold out

4:49

hope for some things, except

4:51

for that toxic dick. Let

4:54

that toxic dick go. And when

4:56

you let it go. I gotta finish

4:58

it. Sorry. Thank you. Okay. You

5:00

always have to end it with

5:02

your head up and your arms

5:05

back, because that's the way

5:07

Whitney always did it. I can't

5:09

get into a Whitney Houston hole.

5:11

We need to go on. We

5:14

need to move on. Oh my

5:16

God. So anyway, y'all, you are

5:18

welcome. You are very welcome. Poodle.

5:20

Yes. Go ahead. I know you've

5:22

been dying to talk about it.

5:25

I think it's time. Y'all

5:27

the white Lotus finale aired

5:29

Sunday. You're this is a

5:31

Friday. People are still talking

5:34

about we're recording this on

5:36

Wednesday. I need to watch

5:38

it. You're kidding me. I watched

5:41

it. Well, you watched it a day

5:43

later. I have to know I didn't.

5:45

You had to get spoiled because

5:47

what did you do? How

5:50

did you go into a bunker?

5:52

I didn't go on Instagram a

5:54

lot that day. Any other social

5:56

media? Well, actually I was

5:59

able we were technically off that

6:01

day because you were traveling on Monday? Yes I

6:03

was. So I didn't have to, so I just

6:05

checked in on our work email and that was it.

6:07

My personal email, you're not gonna get that,

6:09

yeah. And no, I did a lot of stuff.

6:11

I had a really beautiful kind

6:14

of non-technology day. What you asked.

6:16

I don't get a shit about

6:18

how your day was. I'm asking,

6:20

I'm asking, so how you, you

6:22

avoided spoilers by going into a

6:24

technology bunker. That's what you're basically

6:26

saying. I still checked in, but

6:29

yeah, I didn't see anything. So

6:31

I watched it that afternoon. It was

6:33

great. I took a, I realize. God, what

6:35

is this. You should watch the white Lotus.

6:38

When you're a, well take a

6:40

gummy, it was, it was great.

6:43

I, I don't, I wasn't high. I

6:45

was just kind of

6:47

like loosey-goosey and

6:49

I loved it. Otherwise you're

6:51

not, you don't love it?

6:54

I'm, I'm confused. I'm saying,

6:56

I'm saying you don't, I'm

6:58

just saying when I watched

7:01

it, when a little loosey-goosey,

7:03

it was great. What's gonna

7:05

happen. I don't think this

7:07

season has been anxiety producing.

7:09

Oh, I think that, well, we'll

7:11

talk about it, which I think

7:13

it has been, the last episode

7:15

was, the last episode was that

7:18

way. Um. Sissies, I think there are

7:20

a few things that we all can

7:22

agree on, like Christian Bell being the

7:24

best Batman. No, it's Michael Keaton,

7:26

the oh gee, are you crazy?

7:28

Or Andrew Lloyd Weber is the

7:30

greatest living composer of Broadway.

7:32

What? Okay, now you're just

7:35

messing with me. And losing weight

7:37

is tough. You know what? You're right

7:39

about that. Y'all? Remember when you

7:41

were 25 and you could just eat a

7:43

salad for lunch and lose a pound?

7:45

Yes! Now I just think about a salad

7:47

and I gain a pound. More like two.

7:49

y'all is going to

9:48

the word of the

9:50

gay. The word of

9:52

the gay. Today's word

9:54

of the gay is

9:57

edging. Boy. Now we've

9:59

talked. about a lot of this

10:01

and your and some of your

10:03

kids your gen alpha kids say

10:05

edging it's not the same thing

10:07

if you don't know what edging

10:10

is I encourage you not to

10:12

Google it on your work computer

10:14

yes but I think most people

10:17

know what edging is but you know

10:19

no not the gay way that's not

10:21

true oh so would you I'm

10:23

scared to ask but would you

10:25

like to explain poodle gay gay edging

10:28

yes I think it might

10:30

be different for you

10:32

than it is for

10:35

me. I'm nervous. Edging

10:37

is where you're ramping

10:39

someone up to orgasm

10:42

by slightly, by long

10:44

ramping up, ramping up,

10:46

ramping up. Taking a

10:48

very long time to get them

10:50

there. Oh, I hope my mother's

10:52

not listening. You're edging. You're being

10:54

edged. You know, you're not climaxing.

10:56

You'll jerk them off a little

10:59

bit longer and you'll stop and

11:01

I'll go, you're like, you got

11:03

to wait for it. I'm going

11:05

to keep you on the edge

11:07

of glory. And then you go,

11:09

go, go, go, go, go, go,

11:11

go, go, and then you do

11:13

them, until they're begging you, finally,

11:15

do you let them ejaculate. What

11:19

what that's what happened? He's he's

11:21

he's destroyed never want to hear

11:24

that explanation from you again I'm

11:26

actually exactly what's happening. I'm actually

11:28

in I'm gay and into edging

11:31

and that disgusted me but that

11:33

was that's that's how it's

11:35

happening It's precisely what's

11:37

happening. I just didn't know we

11:39

needed to be so descriptive to

11:41

like or So that is edging. Why isn't

11:44

that different though? I think straight people can

11:46

edge someone? They can. I'm not talking about

11:48

like the gay version. I'm talking about gene

11:50

alpha kids. They're like edging in the words

11:52

to be different. You're being edgy. That's what

11:54

I'm talking about. You never heard kids say

11:57

that? I did not know that. No, I

11:59

learned something. All of our listeners say

12:01

their kids say that and they laugh

12:03

about it. Oh, they don't know. Kids

12:05

are dumb. They don't know what the

12:08

fuck they're talking about. In my day,

12:10

you edge someone in a dark room.

12:12

So there's been, we're talking about this

12:14

because besides the edging commentary, which is,

12:17

which was, Mike White basically

12:19

said, any interview, he was

12:21

talking about fans complaining about

12:23

being bored during White Lotus

12:25

season three. He says, if you

12:27

don't want to go to bed

12:29

with me, get out of my

12:31

bed. I'm edging you. Enjoy the

12:33

edging. If you don't want to

12:35

be edged, get out of my

12:37

bed. Don't be a bossy bottom.

12:39

And what he was, I don't

12:41

really love the way he said it

12:43

to get out of my bed. Kind

12:46

of, I just went. It's a

12:48

little bottom shaming shaming too.

12:50

Yeah, it's that. And it

12:52

basically implies that. he's

12:54

going to fuck whoever

12:56

watches, somehow metaphorically. Although

12:59

I do agree with

13:01

the sentiment of if you,

13:03

if you can complain about

13:05

it, stop watching. And the

13:07

thing about it is the same

13:09

people who complained about,

13:12

quote, nothing happening the

13:14

whole season watched every

13:16

Sunday. Well, I can't speak

13:18

for people in other parts

13:20

of the country in Los

13:23

Angeles because. I'm in the entertainment

13:25

industry as we both are. I

13:27

kind of felt like I have

13:29

to watch it whether I wanted

13:31

to watch it or not because

13:33

it's all everybody in LA are

13:35

talking about. So if you're not,

13:37

you're going to dinners and parties.

13:40

Would you have watched it? I

13:42

would not have watched the second

13:44

season because I did not enjoy

13:46

the first season so much and

13:48

I was. you just screamed at me

13:50

to do it. And so just really

13:52

verbally assaulted me and I finally had

13:54

to watch it. You know what? It

13:56

wasn't just me. It was everyone. No,

13:59

everyone. But I... But I enjoyed the

14:01

second season very much. So I think

14:03

I think this season was much more

14:05

like season three or season one than

14:07

season two. Yes. And it was it

14:09

was and it was it was slower for

14:12

me. I feel like you complained about nothing

14:14

happening on it. I think yeah, you know,

14:16

I was talking with a friend about it

14:18

because I loved the finale. I thought it

14:21

was great. And I think the what she

14:23

brought up a good point. She's like,

14:25

you know, because she complained about it.

14:27

She's like. the fuck it's so slow

14:29

and I was like yeah I can

14:31

see that and but then she said

14:33

you know I went back she's like

14:36

I was bored one day and I

14:38

went back and watched the episodes and

14:40

I would watch like three or four

14:42

episodes at a time and she said

14:44

it actually I loved it better

14:47

as a binge than a weekly parsling of

14:49

an episode and when she said that I

14:51

thought you know what she is probably right

14:53

it's hard to do because everyone's fucking talking

14:56

about it and you'll get spoiled but I

14:58

probably I think I liked this season but

15:00

I think I would have enjoyed it more

15:03

if I could have watched like what's the

15:05

reasoning behind it because it moves so slow

15:07

it feels like you're not getting to

15:09

a lot of places each episode

15:11

I would have felt a little

15:14

bit more connectivity of watching three

15:16

or four episodes. My theory is

15:18

with that is that is a

15:20

flawed rubric. This is a

15:22

this is a show about

15:24

character and storytelling. It doesn't

15:27

have to do with boom

15:29

boom boom suspense like so

15:31

many shows today. We're y'all

15:33

we're deadened to things. This

15:35

is a show about storytelling

15:38

and theme. Theme is the most

15:40

important. Not like

15:42

Character and theme, not

15:45

plot, which is what

15:47

most of our prestige

15:49

television is about, twists,

15:51

turns, suspense. That's not

15:53

this show. No, no, no, it's not

15:56

the show. And I think, especially

15:58

this season. It

16:01

was more suspense, twist

16:03

and turn, season two.

16:05

But the themes of rebirth,

16:08

themes of change,

16:10

adaptation, can we actually

16:13

change? Can we be different?

16:15

The show paid off in

16:17

such, in spades, of just

16:20

those three kids arriving,

16:22

the Ratliff kids,

16:24

they're very different

16:27

now. completely changed all three

16:29

of those kids and the way it sets

16:31

here no evil see no evil speak no

16:33

evil yeah yeah it y'all you can't tell

16:35

you can't have a car chase and a

16:38

train hiced when you're trying to tell

16:40

that story that's what we have I

16:42

mean you think about you know there's

16:44

these um streaming platforms that are

16:47

like they're doing like one minute

16:49

episodes of things and it's kind

16:51

of like a soap opera and

16:53

they're doing really well on all

16:55

these apps because that's all anybody's

16:57

watching out something really quick. I

16:59

like to watch White Lotus from,

17:01

I think it's an actor show,

17:03

I think it's a show, if

17:05

you're an actor, you like watching

17:07

White Lotus because you just love

17:09

to kind of govel up the

17:11

performances of people. I come from

17:13

a writer's perspective from it, because

17:15

I think it's really well written. And

17:18

I like to watch the actors do

17:20

their thing, but that's what makes me

17:22

watch it as the acting. And so

17:24

that makes me not go, oh, something

17:27

didn't happen, but... But I get what

17:29

it but I think that is of yeah

17:31

we're just used to everything's fast

17:33

we're used to you know it

17:35

kind of there was a change in

17:38

television I feel like it was

17:40

around like when 24 came out

17:42

and things like that yeah we

17:44

were having this television though where

17:47

it was just And everything was

17:49

so quick and it happened with

17:51

lost. It happened with lost. I feel

17:53

like lost was a moment there that

17:55

needed to be this. Oh God, this

17:58

episode cliffhanger it is and. TV

18:00

used to not be that

18:02

way. That was storytelling, but

18:04

storytelling amped up on steroids

18:07

and coke. Streaming is actually

18:09

perpetuated this because Netflix changed

18:11

this with dinches. And you

18:13

need to, so I think

18:15

we're now predisposed to look

18:18

for that. And the White

18:20

Lotus is a repudiation of

18:22

that. Especially this season that

18:24

was all meditative. It had, it

18:26

had very funny moments, but

18:29

like. The three women's saga was

18:31

funny, but it was more

18:33

about what they realized friendship

18:35

was for them as adults.

18:38

And what they needed. And

18:40

it was a great character arc

18:42

for everybody. And people were, by

18:45

the way, we were both right

18:47

with who died. We didn't think

18:49

it would both be Chelsea. But

18:52

for once, we never get

18:54

anything. We never get any prediction,

18:56

right. One of my still my

18:58

favorite things was when the shooting

19:00

did happen carry coon just running

19:03

her fucking legs off going going

19:05

just going I know I'm getting

19:07

out here regardless leaving the other

19:09

two that would be me I already

19:11

saw my exits and I know where

19:13

they are any time I'm somewhere no

19:15

I my brother's a volunteer sheriff so

19:17

I've been trained for that to I

19:19

always I'm always I'm always looks in

19:21

the door so I can see who

19:24

enters the door in a restaurant sit

19:26

with your back to the wall the

19:28

whole yes yeah you will never see me

19:30

facing the facing the entrance I gotta

19:32

see who's coming in maybe if I'm

19:34

with maybe if I'll if I see

19:36

someone better I'll just leave my table

19:38

and go sit with them there's only

19:40

a certain situation where you're not

19:42

where your back's not against the wall

19:45

and you're not my back usually

19:47

on my back yeah this is happening

19:49

but I'm still facing the doorway to

19:51

see if something else comes in. That's

19:53

true. I would rather, this is what

19:55

I'll say too, I would rather have

19:58

a show that feels a little... Slow

20:00

in moments. Yeah, but ends really

20:02

well based off how many times

20:04

have you had a show that's

20:07

like bam bam and it's really

20:09

great and exciting and the ending

20:11

just shit so bad. Well, this

20:13

had true really hard to end

20:15

something. This had so many themes

20:18

and so many characters to deal

20:20

with and having them have a

20:22

journey through it that it

20:24

was just super satisfying. I don't

20:26

love the way Belinda storyline

20:29

ended. Like, uh, I don't know. It

20:31

felt like we, we earned, we

20:33

were, we, maybe she just wanted

20:36

to own a spa, and maybe

20:38

it was just, she took the

20:40

money and said, maybe I am

20:42

gonna finally take or do something

20:45

responsible, do something

20:47

maybe without thinking about it.

20:49

Maybe I am gonna finally

20:52

just enjoy my life. See, I

20:54

took from how this idea of

20:56

money immediately corrupts. That's true. She

20:58

promised. Let me be rich for

21:00

five fucking minutes. But she promised

21:02

the guy that they were going

21:04

to that she talked about something

21:06

with him and she literally did

21:09

what Jennifer Coolidge did to her. Yep.

21:11

She left it. So, but it feels more

21:13

deserved than Jennifer Coolidge because we know how

21:15

much she's like. So it's not the same,

21:17

but I do think that's what I took

21:19

from it is that. I'm going to miss

21:21

it. We don't always change. I'm going to

21:24

miss White Lotus. and Parker

21:26

Posey. We've got hacks coming

21:28

back. We've got last of us.

21:30

There's plenty. I curify. I

21:32

watched I watched the first

21:34

episode of dying for sex

21:37

last night with Michelle Williams

21:39

and Denise Light. It's fucking

21:41

incredible. I loved it. I can't wait.

21:43

I want to watch more. I've been

21:45

thinking about it all the whole time.

21:47

Michelle Williams is going to win

21:50

it to me. Well, it's incredible.

21:52

I'm proud for her. It's you know. I'm

21:54

really actually proud for, I've actually met her,

21:56

I'm friends with, well, colleagues with her, Nikki

21:59

Boyer started that. And that was her

22:01

podcast and she started that. So I'm

22:03

really proud. She used to do a

22:05

podcast with Ross Matthews. So I didn't

22:07

know that I didn't know it was

22:09

a podcast before it was based on

22:11

it was a wondering podcast. It was

22:14

Maybe we could sell our podcast to

22:16

make it a show. Maybe we can.

22:18

Who knows? I don't think a TV

22:20

show out of this. I don't think

22:22

if they make a show called edging,

22:24

I want to cut. But yeah, she was

22:26

I was they. We've been joking about

22:29

it, but they actually, her and

22:31

Ross, hosted the AMBs years ago,

22:33

and I did crowd warm up

22:35

for that. And she was there,

22:37

and she was lovely, we chatted

22:39

a lot, and then we started

22:41

following each other. So I'm really

22:43

happy for her. Good for her. She's

22:45

worked her out. All that being

22:48

said, sometimes, y'all, it's okay to

22:50

be brought to climax. Now, slowly.

22:52

Metah, meticulously. I am so

22:54

sorry, I'm just Reba Mac

22:56

and timer's going off, we

22:58

23:37

y'all, it's time. It's this next

23:39

thing that is we're bringing back

23:41

something we've talked about for it.

23:44

It's called bring it back. I

24:01

don't mean this is like

24:03

an ownership, I'm just shocked

24:05

that you didn't bring this

24:07

to me first because normally

24:09

this is peak poodle to

24:12

find, but there's a, I'm

24:14

gonna quote the part, there's

24:16

an Instagram, Mr. Mark O'Donovan,

24:18

Mr. Mark O'Donovan. Just another

24:20

homosexual on social media. And

24:23

he posted Joan Crawford's writer,

24:25

and I say, rider, usually rider

24:27

is a one-page document.

24:29

Yeah, just saying what

24:31

our our rider for

24:33

reality gaze live shows

24:35

usually Some doctor pepper,

24:37

yeah, some doctor pepper

24:39

some water. That's it.

24:41

Handcups. Handcups. This is

24:43

when Joan Crawford was

24:45

a lot of people

24:48

don't remember. She was

24:50

the owner of Pepsico

24:52

and which was talked

24:54

about ironically enough in

24:56

feud that podcast that we

24:58

covered. It was quite

25:00

extensive voluminous. It's pages and

25:03

pages of her writer. She

25:05

was doing a promotional tour

25:07

for the movie Straight Jacket,

25:09

which was kind of camp.

25:11

She was a murderer. This

25:14

is when her career was waning.

25:16

Yes, it was in her career.

25:18

She was, it was, I mean,

25:20

it's like 10 pages long. I

25:22

think the. It's not, yes, 1964

25:24

was a promotional tour for this.

25:26

I just want to say, first

25:28

of all, she needs top suite, three

25:31

bedroom suite, nobody else can

25:33

be higher than her. She needs to be

25:35

on a top level. There was a lot

25:37

of talk about, we're not going to

25:39

go into everything because it's going

25:41

to be a fucking 20-minute segment.

25:44

I just want to read that,

25:46

just real quickly, kind of what

25:48

is in her room. First of

25:50

all, Cracked ice in buckets, several

25:53

buckets. What's wrong with that? Well,

25:55

yeah, no. Lunch and dinner menus,

25:57

it seems to sign. Pends and

25:59

papers. A hair dryer, an ironing

26:02

board, a carton of king's

26:04

sano cigarettes. Hot. A

26:06

bowl of peppermint lifesavers.

26:08

Okay. Red and yellow

26:10

roses. Oh, the yellow is a

26:13

lot. And of course, a case

26:15

of Pepsi, but this is where

26:17

it gets fun. There is to

26:19

be a maid on hand in

26:21

the sweetly, Miss Crawford, arise,

26:24

and she is to

26:26

stand by until Miss

26:28

Crawford dismisses her. And poodle, did

26:30

you see the alcohol list? Yes,

26:32

I'm reading it now. Can you

26:34

read the type of- This is

26:37

what's supposed to be here. Two

26:39

fifths of 100 proof, Smirnoff. And

26:41

the note is, this is not

26:43

80 proof. And only, and it

26:46

is only Smirnoff. Tell me

26:48

you're an alcoholic without telling

26:50

me. One fifth? Old Foster

26:53

bourbon. Now this is also Forester

26:55

bourbon sorry both forester I think

26:57

this is also for other people

26:59

who would be attending but still

27:01

one fifth shivers regal Scotch one

27:03

fifth beef one fifth beef eater

27:06

gin and two bottles maway and

27:08

shondon champagne type d'ampernial There's

27:10

more about cash advances. There's this

27:13

whole thing. Payouts. Payouts. I think

27:15

the thing to read is the

27:17

last page of this says Miss

27:20

Crawford is a underlying embolded star

27:22

in every sense of the word

27:24

and everyone knows she is a

27:27

underlying bolded star. Later on, the

27:29

talks about should be carrying a

27:31

minimum of 15 pieces of luggage.

27:34

This is incredible. And so this

27:36

is what I want to say. Bring

27:39

it back. This is changing

27:41

the way back stars stars

27:43

because now because of social

27:45

media and people watching and

27:47

talking for doing shit like this.

27:49

It's so I think we need

27:51

a dream because we know like

27:53

Frank Sinatra all these people had

27:55

just incredible. So I want to

27:58

ask you what and let Let

28:00

us know, y'all, we'll make a

28:02

meme of it, let us know

28:04

in the comments, what is your

28:07

dream rider poodle? You to be

28:09

barred from my door. I'm okay

28:11

with that. I think I prefer

28:13

that. I don't want to go

28:15

on your resume. Just tackle the

28:18

hog tide if you were at all. You

28:20

know, I think I want a nice

28:22

liquor cabinet for myself.

28:24

Some, some, some, some,

28:26

some canopays. Some nice

28:28

little appetizers, some snackies. I'd

28:31

want like some stags, leap

28:33

wine, some good wine. I

28:36

think I would want, I

28:38

think I would want some

28:40

little, some sweets like like

28:43

M&M's or probably

28:45

peanut M&M's. You love

28:47

P-M-N-M-N-M-M-N-M-N-S. That's easy. You

28:50

could have homemade lemon

28:52

bars. Oh, that's what

28:54

I want. And then a butler.

28:57

to service me, however I needed

28:59

to be. I have to say, shirtless.

29:01

I'm gonna tell you now, y'all, if I'm

29:03

a huge star, I want, not one but

29:06

two, I want three go-go boys dancing

29:08

in my dressing room. Consistently. Consistently. Consistently.

29:10

What are you doing? Stop, stop,

29:13

stop dancing. And by the end

29:15

of it, there's like, and I'm

29:17

just phoning it in. Yes, I

29:19

want a stack of a $100

29:22

dollar, $1 dollar one dollar bills

29:24

that I can just reused. See,

29:26

but I'm talking about stream riders.

29:28

I need a dream. This is

29:31

what I want, and I want

29:33

them to all call me, all

29:35

call me, sir, ma'am, doesn't

29:37

matter. I just don't think we

29:40

have stars anymore. I don't

29:42

think there are movie stars.

29:44

I think we've brought people

29:46

to be relatable, and I

29:49

think the last movie star

29:51

who is like so incredible

29:53

was Tom Cruise. I think, I

29:55

think, I think. Like the idea

29:58

of opening a movie and And

30:00

I think movie stars are kind

30:02

of done. So we've got movie

30:04

stars. Yeah, but even Brad

30:07

Pitt kind of, it's waned. I

30:09

think Tom Cruise can still open

30:11

a movie like that. Yeah. But

30:13

I don't think we have movie

30:15

stars anymore. And it's

30:17

just, I think everyone's. Because there

30:20

needed to be some mystery

30:22

with a movie star. I

30:24

agree. And there's no mystery

30:27

anymore. We know everything. Yeah.

30:29

Oh, I guess I guess she

30:31

just likes to make sure she's

30:33

a Vino. She doesn't. I

30:35

love her hair though. She's

30:38

still doing commercials though. Oh,

30:40

that bitch needs to work.

30:43

She's doing that popcorn shit.

30:45

I buy everything she fucking

30:47

does to a lover. Um,

30:49

I guess, I guess she just

30:51

likes to making sure she's

30:53

taking care. I think if I

30:56

ever, not if, when I become

30:58

a successful actor, I

31:00

will always do commercial

31:02

too. A, I like doing them,

31:04

but there is that thing in me

31:06

that just says, you

31:08

always need work. Yeah.

31:10

Anyway, we're saying bring

31:12

back stars. Bring back

31:15

stars with unreasonable demands.

31:17

Please. And I want to talk

31:19

about it. Yeah. Anyway. Why are

31:22

you in two poods? I'm into

31:24

season three of Love on the

31:26

Spectrum. I was a lot of

31:29

more talking about it. It

31:31

is my go-to-sleep stuff

31:33

at night. Why do you

31:35

go to sleep though when

31:37

you're crying? Because you always

31:40

saw about it. I do

31:42

cry. Actually, it's more touching

31:44

this season. The guy Connor

31:46

from last season, who was

31:48

so hot southern brothers. And

31:51

Sweet Show. No, I want

31:53

to, I want to, I

31:55

want to like, I want

31:57

to fucking ride his face.

32:00

edging thing really. You might

32:02

need something. Yeah. I'm going

32:04

to have to phone a

32:06

friend. Tell me you're old

32:08

with hearing phone a

32:10

friend. So it's that

32:13

and they've got they've

32:15

some newer people this

32:17

season. Danny and Adan

32:20

are continuing their relationship.

32:22

What I've always loved

32:24

about the show is how both

32:26

patient and kind the parents

32:29

are. and how the parents

32:31

just provide some kind of

32:34

loving environment. And

32:36

when I watch it, I feel

32:38

like I'm being repented by these

32:40

parents. Not that I had a

32:42

horrible childhood, but these

32:45

parents are so much more

32:47

considerate. And of what I'm like.

32:49

I didn't do half this shit and

32:51

my parents didn't let me get away

32:54

with anything. Nothing. And the parents

32:56

are like, oh, that's great that

32:58

you're doing this. And it's tough

33:00

love sometimes, but it's always love

33:02

and the kids feel supported. And

33:05

I was like, I feel like

33:07

I'm being repented through watching this

33:09

show. I think that's one of the

33:11

reasons. Oh, I love that sentiment.

33:13

And I also think that watching

33:16

people kind of without guile,

33:18

because autism, dating a lot of

33:20

times. That's what's happening now. And

33:22

how what and they always say

33:25

so and so likes blah blah

33:27

blah and it's usually it's their

33:29

special hobbies and certain things like

33:31

that or the smell of fresh

33:34

tennis balls. And it's always very

33:36

specific. There's one guy though who

33:39

consistently gets my nerves and

33:41

that's James and I have to

33:43

forward his segments because he's just

33:46

he's so unlikable for

33:48

me and he's been on all

33:50

three seasons and I could watch

33:53

the first two and he truly

33:55

he truly is not an autistic

33:57

person who's kind of a dick

34:00

And I might get black from this,

34:02

but he's just so unlikable

34:04

to me. And I think that's

34:06

part of representation. It's like, it's

34:08

like, it's like, Winter Brentson was

34:10

just talking about how she's really,

34:12

she really let go of being

34:14

a perfect black woman and she's

34:16

like, I want a law and

34:18

I want, that is truly, this

34:20

guy is so full of himself

34:22

too and thinks he's God's gift.

34:24

I think that's great. I have

34:27

that on reality. Anyway, I highly

34:29

recommend it. It's great pre-bed TV

34:31

watching if you want to get away

34:33

from all the news and all the

34:36

shit that's in the world. Love on

34:38

the spectrum, season three. You don't really

34:40

have to know the other three seasons.

34:43

I highly recommend them all, but

34:45

this season is really giving. I've

34:48

watched I've watched three episodes.

34:50

All right then. What are you into?

34:52

I'm into... I talked about an actor show,

34:54

but a writer. I'm really into the

34:56

studio, which is on Apple TV. I

34:58

need to start it. It's, uh... Do

35:00

you think I like it or something?

35:02

First of all, I love Seth Rogan.

35:04

I don't know if you will learn.

35:06

It's very inside baseball if you're in

35:08

the film, if you're in the film

35:11

industry. And what I love, it's Seth

35:13

Rogan. I think you will like it

35:15

because Catherine Hahn is so fucking

35:17

funny. I'm in her character. And

35:19

Seth Rogan and I'm gonna mess

35:21

up. It's Ike Berenholtz. Yeah. They're

35:23

almost kind of like, Matti Bumbling

35:26

buddies, but also Brian Cranston is

35:28

this lunatic studio. head who was

35:30

fired. Yes. And she's like Seth

35:32

Rogan's mentor because he's the new

35:34

studio head. Oh, I've got to

35:37

watch. So it's really what I

35:39

love about the show, it's very,

35:41

very, it gives you vibes of

35:43

Seth Rogan's almost like a Larry

35:46

David type of character. Oh, yeah.

35:48

And what's smart about the show, like

35:50

the second episode is called, it's

35:52

called the one-er. And if you don't

35:55

know that in production, the one-er is

35:57

a one-shot. And as soon as we

35:59

said it. There was an episode of

36:01

some television show like a month ago

36:03

that everybody was talking about. It was

36:05

like a one shot where somebody's just

36:08

closing up. That's adolescence. Yeah, adolescence. Everybody's

36:10

talking about that. So the one shot,

36:12

if you don't know what that is,

36:14

y'all is where you press the camera

36:17

rolls, you don't cut away, and you're

36:19

moving about. I think Goodfell has had

36:21

a famous one shot in it. Anyway,

36:23

it's it's something that as filmmakers we

36:25

still kind of... entertainment people still marvel

36:28

like because we know it's really fucking

36:30

hard to do yeah so anyway he's

36:32

the second episode what I love it's

36:34

done it's about Seth Rogan going to

36:37

this going to set one day to

36:39

watch them do a one-er that he's

36:41

so excited about it's a one-shot and

36:43

the whole 30 minutes is done in

36:45

a one-shot and the whole thing is

36:48

Seth Rogan's character keeps messing up the

36:50

one-shot so the metanists it's so well

36:52

done love that I'm gonna love that

36:54

really funny okay highly I'll check it

36:57

out the first episode's 45 minutes and

36:59

then it just jumps to like 30

37:01

minute episodes to like 30 minute episodes

37:03

I'll say that sounds perfect perfect It's

37:05

on Apple, who knew? Apple TV had

37:08

nothing forever, and then just like in

37:10

the last year, doing great. No, it's

37:12

more than that. I would say the

37:14

last two years. That's two years. So,

37:17

anyway, um, I didn't have nothing for

37:19

so long. It was like, last so

37:21

and that was it. That was it.

37:23

Anyway, all right, foods, it's time, it's

37:25

time for you, you gonna bitch, are

37:28

you gonna bow down? Um, I guess,

37:30

you know what, mine's. Mine's nice. Let's

37:32

end, let's, oh I'm bitching. Yeah, you're

37:34

gonna bitch. I'm gonna bow down. Do

37:36

you do with pop culture? This has

37:39

nothing to do. Always great for the

37:41

show. This is just something personal that

37:43

I want to bitch about. I don't

37:45

think that's the intention. I don't care.

37:48

Y'all, especially if you live in a

37:50

city. This has happened to me now.

37:52

And I've counted now. So it's just

37:54

personal grievance. Yes. Okay. Okay. This happened

37:56

to me eight times this. Eight times

37:59

this week. driving and you're going the

38:01

wrong place. So this is just really

38:03

venal and personal. Okay, got it. And

38:05

I think you might get on board

38:08

though, I think you might co-sign. I

38:10

understand that sometimes you fucked up and

38:12

you need to turn around and the

38:14

only way to turn around is to

38:16

make a U-turn and a four-point intersection.

38:19

However... If there is someone

38:21

behind you, you don't do it.

38:23

I agree with you. I have

38:25

been, I don't know what's happening

38:27

with people. They're just making me

38:29

stop while they fucking three-point turn

38:31

in an intersection? In an intersection?

38:33

In an intersection, because they need

38:36

to make a unit. That's people

38:38

being inconsiderate. People are monsters. I

38:40

honked. I'm now the point. I'm

38:42

honking my horn. I stopped because

38:44

I'm worried I'm going to get

38:46

shot. When you flip people off

38:48

in my car. I don't, we

38:50

can't do that. You can't live

38:52

in fear. You shouldn't really, you

38:54

shouldn't really do it anyway, you're

38:57

right. But if you're going to

38:59

do a fucking turnaround and in

39:01

there's, make sure no one is

39:03

there. No one. No, the three

39:05

point turns. I knew you could

39:07

sign on this. Thank you for

39:09

the validation. Does feel kind of

39:11

small to talk about it, but

39:13

fuck off. What's your bow down?

39:15

Or what's your bow down whore?

39:18

I'm gonna bow down to dire

39:20

wolves because now Dyer, they've done

39:22

some genetic work on wolves. They're

39:24

the game of Thrones. I forgot

39:26

about it. The Game of Thrones,

39:28

George R.R. Martin held one of

39:30

the Cubs and started crying. All

39:32

they took like a tooth and

39:34

took DNA from it and spliced

39:36

parts of genes because gray wolves

39:38

have 99.5% of their DNA shared

39:41

with dire wolves. They do. It's

39:43

just a species that we don't

39:45

have anymore. So they brought, they

39:47

have two dire wolf cubs. Cups,

39:49

cups, wolf cups, yeah, cups, yeah,

39:51

cups, yeah. And, uh, Romulus and

39:53

Raymond. and they're trying to, so

39:55

they're white obviously, and bigger, and

39:57

they're thinking this could be great

39:59

for other species, so they can

40:02

find, they had like the woolly

40:04

mouse, if you remember that, like

40:06

a species that they used to

40:08

not have, so we're creating species

40:10

that we used to not have,

40:12

and I'm, and I love dire

40:14

wolves because of Game of Thrones,

40:16

and I would love. to have

40:18

a dire wolf as a pet.

40:20

But they're not big enough. This

40:23

is unrealistic. And I know, and

40:25

I would love it to sick.

40:27

I would love to sick it

40:29

on people. I think it should.

40:31

That's what I want. Because I'm

40:33

going to take you about down

40:35

and bitch about it. Because sure.

40:37

If we kill, if humans have

40:39

killed a species of animals. then

40:41

bring them back. Amen. But if

40:43

they have naturally died, we are

40:46

just, y'all, we do not need

40:48

wooly fucking mammals anymore. They had

40:50

their time. I don't know. I

40:52

think we're not going to bring

40:54

back. I think we have the

40:56

potential to say we're not going

40:58

to bring back mammoths. They're trying

41:00

to do wooly mammoths. No, they

41:02

actually are trying to bring back

41:04

wooly mammoths. We're just going to

41:07

end ourselves. We just want to

41:09

end ourselves. I think maybe we'll

41:11

find a smaller version of that.

41:13

Also, Willie Mammus didn't try to

41:15

kill people. That's true. You kind

41:17

of live in, you kind of

41:19

go that feared direction. It would

41:21

be nice on a dire wolf,

41:23

though. I could just sick on

41:25

you. I could sick it on

41:28

you. Okay, now I'm back down

41:30

again. That's the show, everybody. That's

41:32

the show. That's the show. That's

41:34

the show. Thank you for bringing

41:36

that up. I admit to write

41:38

it down. I appreciate you. A

41:40

lot, they're not real dire wolves

41:42

though, not like the big ones

41:44

and gang up, but we can

41:46

dream. But it's like an older

41:49

species. Oh, I want to be

41:51

a snutter. Oh. All right, everybody.

41:53

The dire wolves just like licking

41:55

you in the face. Mm-hmm. Or

41:57

eating you. You don't know. That's

41:59

the show. Either or. You can

42:01

42:45

So this weekend, don't you dare

42:47

make a fucking you turn in

42:49

an intersection when there's a car

42:51

behind you? That felt like a

42:54

hug. Thank you. There's a car

42:56

fucking behind you. Come on. And

42:58

I'm going to coast out and

43:00

say, you better get yourself a

43:02

dire wolf. Let's just enjoy that

43:04

they're in the world. Instead of

43:06

trying to buy them. Adop, don't

43:08

shop. Adop, don't shop, enjoy the

43:10

world, and no matter what, what,

43:12

poo. Keep going queens!
