Speaker 1 (00:05):
Hey, this is Annie and smitha. I'm opening to stuff
I've never told your reflection.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
iHeart radio, and we are back with another watching of
Sex and the City. It is a happy hour episode
and like most of our happy hours, if you're doing
anything happy hour ish, do so responsibly. My voice is
(00:32):
still kind of wonky.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
M hm.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
I feel like the more I try to have the
podcast or voice, the worse it gets. Yeah, so I'm
just gonna start screaming into the mic, just kidding. But
with all of that, Annie, are you doing anything happy
hour ish?
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Yes, I still have some of my springtime Belgian ale
that my friend left and it's.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Perfect timing, perfect timing. M I am drinking a sorta yeah. Yeah,
Look so it was on sale this week. Yep. So
look those grocery prices.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I know, I know, I know.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
It's just to get three free, yes, sir. And by
the way, none of these things are sponsors. Outlandishly, I
don't know why, but they're not currently. Of course, things
do change, and maybe one day you're listening to it
and they do not being a sponsor. That'd be cool.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
The future is always emotion, as you had to says,
always emotion is the future.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Let me get it right correctly said, thank you so much.
I prefer that I'm just kidding uh with that. Yes,
we are watching another episode of Sex and the City Together,
which any has not seen many of. We're slowly gaining
I feel like we've definitely gotten to the halfway mark.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Yeah, we've made some so by the time.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I'm sixty, we will have to finish this. If I'm
still podcasting before I retire, we will. We will have
finished this. No, we are on season three, episode sixteen.
The title is Friend of Mees. But before we get
into that, Anie, can you give us a quick look
back about what has been happening in season three.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
I feel that as we reached the halfway point in
season three, we're getting a lot of interesting plot lines.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Oh no, we're almost ending of season three.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Yes, but I think that when I guess, it's like
the two thirds point when like Aiden broke up with
Carrie after she told him she had cheated on him
with Big, And then you've got Charlotte who married Trey.
But now they're dealing with an impotence problem that he
(02:59):
doesn't seemed to have outside of her necessarily, which is
what the last episode was about Miranda is true. She's
trying to meet people and it's not going her away,
including getting braces in the last episode and kind of
(03:19):
getting teased a lot for that, and then Samantha doing
her Samantha thing, which has involved meeting Hugh Heffner, getting
kicked out of Hugh Hefner's party, and then working for
a thirteen.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Year old who had a lot of money.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
To throw away big at Mitzvah party. So I think
I've said this before, but once again, it feels like
there's a lot of disarray happening. There's a lot of like,
what's going on in my life happening? And what do
I want to do with my life happening?
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Is that thirties conundrum? Yeahties forties conundrum?
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Mm hmmmmmmm.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
So with that, yes, we are. Like I said on
this episode of Frenemies, I'm gonna read you. I think
they had what's the tagline here? Once upon a time?
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Never read me?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
The tagline I thought I did for the first time.
It just says Miranda's first date turns into a wake
when the guy drops dead. So I gave you a
big hint on this one. What do you think is
going to happen in this episode.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
I think a big hint is generous because the title
doesn't seem to relate to that at all, unless.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
I don't know. Obviously, there are frenies.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
There are friends in your life who are also enemies.
If somebody drops dead and you go the weak, the
funeral is a place of a lot of drama. Can
run into a lot of frenemies. Funeral horror. Awake, Oh
(05:12):
is that awakes?
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Brush?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
No, ma'am, you can't say brush though.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Yeah, I'm gonna go with brunch for this one.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
All right, brunch, All right, here we go, Here we go.
You ready, Let's get into it. Let's see. How are
you doing?
Speaker 4 (05:45):
My routine had become very routine. I was spending almost
every night in working.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
I've been there.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Hello, Okay, my date is three hours late.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
I'm being stood up, right.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
The date is three hours later. I'm done, that's no.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
And I'm wearing a new dress from Barney's and I'm
eating out of plastic.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Oh man, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
He doesn't even know me. I just bust more plastic
meals because my partner is out of town, so I'm
like linquisine. It is. It's just that I don't want
to cook as much when he's not you know what
I mean?
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Yeah, yeah, but I got a little.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Smarter about picking him now.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
You know, I can't believe guys still stand girls up.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
I can't believe I'm eating a frozen dinner.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I'm such a cliche. You want to grab a drink
or something?
Speaker 5 (06:34):
No, I can't.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
I have to work.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
I agree to teach these stupid learning Annex classes. They're
calling it Bright Lights Date City O.
Speaker 5 (06:42):
I'm so embarrassed for you.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
Right buck, It's a seminar on where to meet men.
Apparently I'm an expert.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
Tell them to steer clear of Starbucks.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I have met I've met a guy at Starbucks and
I dated him for a little bit.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Did you go to a seminar?
Speaker 1 (06:59):
I do, just checking.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Not that Hey, seminars are a bad thing. No, That's
why I think podcasts really came in, Like at the seminar, No,
like how like how to's and what to do and
all these things historical looks and learning. Yeah, podcasts are
the new seminars.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Thanks true.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Him stood up.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
At twenty seven, Miranda had done nothing. At thirty four,
she decided she wasn't going to take this stand up
lying down. Will may have given her the cold shoulder,
but he had also given her his home number.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Hello, Hi, is Will there?
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Who speaking? Hi?
Speaker 5 (07:50):
Miranda Hobbs, Miranda's mom will Will's I don't know how
you raised your son, but he just stood me.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Up for a day. Well guide Today.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
They're starting to Oh no, I think I would collapse.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
This is not technically brunch at the gym, but they
are eating breakfast.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
It looks brunchy.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I will give you credit because they are eating breakfast.
This is not quite much. There are no mimosas.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
It's not it's not a bunch of out of mimosas.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I believe that's a sexist city. Quote.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, I can only get what I think. I think
you're right just saying.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
I, actually, this isn't a fear I have if someone
just dies and I send them a text and it's
like mean or stupid.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Yeah, I've thought about that darkly, Like when people are
gone from classes like Zumba I've known and have it,
don't see them. I'm like, what if something happened to them?
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Yeah, this is the last thing I said.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Yeah, there are two million single men in the city.
I have dated about a million of them. And all
these men are right outside your door. So the next
time you step out in the morning with your shoes
(09:25):
and your toad and you're traveling cappuccino, take a look around,
because I'm telling you our little metropolis it is stacked
with men.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
You never know. I wonder what the statistics are now
about how many single men are in New York City.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
That would be interesting.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
I'm gonna look it up as we're watching this.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
Could you be more specific, you mean, like places to
meet men?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Can you be more sure specific?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
That was pretty vague.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Enjoy sporting sports spars, Mickey Mantles.
Speaker 6 (09:59):
Oh, I've gone there.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
All the men were married?
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Really?
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Really?
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Okay, I've always and this is kind of a Debbie
downer from me, I've always felt a lot of these
seminars are not super helpful. No, they're not, because they
are just kind of like get after he like, No,
I've been doing that.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Yes, you are you married?
Speaker 4 (10:25):
No?
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Oh, the age old question? Are you married?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
What qualifies you to give advice?
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Which, as we've discussed, plenty of advice to give, but
that is a question that often comes up.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
I'm really not an expert on men.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Okay, I just write about this stuff.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Then why are we paying to hear you talk about it?
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Come on, why are we here?
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Wow? They turned very quickly.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Okay. According to West Side Spirit, as of January twenty
twenty six, about fifty three percent of adults in New
York City are single. Hm, I'm.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Do you know that there are no available men out there? Uh?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
We're at my date's wake, so yes, gosh, we're so
what there is a funeral? What do I know about men?
Is a bunch of relations.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
I guess I would go there. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Well after saying that to his mother would be like
wow or something.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
You should send something. I don't know why I go.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Well, as as I have recently been to a funeral
that I was like, I don't I don't know why
I'm here. I don't know why here. It is awkward.
Oh yeah, could you imagine playing this character who just died?
Speaker 1 (11:53):
That's your whole your whole thing.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Like I was supposed to date one of the sec
the city women, but.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
I just dropped bed in the beginning instead.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I'm can I get you ladies anything? Oh Martini, No,
don't go anywhere. I'll be back. He's kind of cute.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
He's kind of an asshole, really, Oh yes, indeed, but
he seems great. Oh sure, that's what I thought too
when I started dating him. Then when we both knew
it wasn't working and I broke up with him. A hello, asshole,
you know, snide comments and rumors spreading works.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
But he's so cute.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
So how do you feel about when friends date an ex,
especially if they're giving you a warning bag this is
not a good person.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
I don't I would not like it, I can admit it,
especially if I told them.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Unless they had demonstrably changed right, And even then I
would be suspicious. I kind of had this happen in
high school, but that was high school, so I don't
think I would necessarily apply that to.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Adult life.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
But in high school, I was like, no, this guy
sucks and I don't understand why if you're not listening
to me.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
How upset would you be if I went out with Jim,
Jim old boyfriend Jim.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
He called me, oh, Marena, no money. He so needs
to be voted off the islands.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
I know how you feel, But he was so sweet
on the phone. And it was eight years ago. Carrie,
maybe he's learned something. I mean, haven't you learned anything
in eight years?
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Apparently not.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
He's alive and he asked me out.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
I'm a little fraid stand the standards are low.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
I mean, it's like you have someone dye and you're like, well, maybe.
Speaker 5 (14:06):
I am.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
No.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Carrie wasn't sure that we would get along. She knew
me a long time ago. I've changed.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I mean back then I was in a band called
Uncle Ted's Act and I could sit on my hand.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Wow, that's impressive. You didn't hear us play.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
I just feel I hear that excuse a lot. It's true,
you can change, but I feel like I hear it
a lot, and that's all it is.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
It's an excuse.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Did you anybody's me?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I mostly see it in public figures.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Oh yeah, yeah right, not in my personal experience.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
I am.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Uptown. Charlotte decided this would be a a good time
to spend with her real old friends, the sisters of Kappa.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Cap to force a friendship.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Might be brunch. It's so great to see you, Charlotte.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
We've really missed you, and.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
I I'm uncomfortable with this.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I love that tying a sweater around your neck means
that you're an elitist somehow.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Yeah, you've got a sweater. I don't need it, but
I have one. Hey, Jim, come on, just happy memories.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Carrie doesn't walk all over people. She sure did with me. Well,
maybe that's because you're an ass whole.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
I'm a soul.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
She's the asshole.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
She never called me once after we broke up.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
That's because you're a whole.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
She's the asshole.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
She's not asshole.
Speaker 6 (15:49):
Thank you, sweetie.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
You know what, Never call me again. You're breaking up
with me?
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Oh yeah, the fancy lawyer ladies breaking up with me
like I give aush.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Like third grade antics. Oh wow, he's just angry.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
He's just been hanging on to that for years. Come on, Charlotte,
you're my wife. That's not you take it off. That's weird.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Line. It's supposed to be sexy.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
You're my wife.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Okay, shouldn't you find your wife sexy? It's a weird,
like Charlotte line, look at me. Yeah, and also, shouldn't
you have seen your woman late naked?
Speaker 1 (16:42):
He's got some repressed this is your wife.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Yeah I'm not I'm agonna and I'm not a whore.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
I'm your wife, and I'm sexual and I love you.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
You know, the thing goes a lady in the streets,
She'll say, and then you fill out the rest. That's
how I was supposed to go.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
That's what you ow. Yes, as the saying goes.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
As that saying goal, that's what you want. That's what
Ludacros said.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
That's what he said. Therefore we must read the heart.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Let go get it.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
I am, and I have to tell you I don't
know a whole lot about it, but I do know this.
You are not going to meet them sitting in a
learning annex class.
Speaker 6 (17:34):
So ladies, grab your bags. Come on, we're not getting
any younger. Chop chop, that's right. I'm just trying to
give your money's worth, all right.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
I took them around the corner to a bar and
took my three hundred dollars and bought them drinks.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
This reminds me of when I was a kid and
I asked my mom, how do you meet men? Is
it as at a bar? And she was like no.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
I got to hit on a couple of times in
the bar, but I was so goofy that I was like, no,
I don't like you, like I was like, not about it.
I was mostly kind of like I'm here with my
friends leaving.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yeah, usually was the situation.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
All right, well, I am going to count the breakfast
as brunch. There may have been a brunch. It didn't
look brunch. It's just like a lunch. But we're going
to give you that I throw in. There was a wake,
which I told you that there was a wake. Yeah.
And there were finemies, which is in the title.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Look, I feel like that title is not giving me
a lot to.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Work work with, which is why you said there's front
of mees.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
I did my best with the knowledge that I had.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
I'll give you information that I had an eighty eight
at a hundred on that one, that one that was
hibee higbee hibee, because you know, you you danced around there,
you danced around there. There were there were lots no
I I kind of forgot this episode myself, and then
I read through it. I was like, oh yeah, yeah,
because it wasn't like two consequential yeah, Like there wasn't
(19:34):
like a huge analysis. There's not really big name stars
in here or guest stars that that's kind of like,
oh yeah, I remember this person, this person. Uh, but
it does kind of open up to like the understanding
of the extremes against Charlotte versus Samantha, which is always
a thing typically in here. I've always thought because of
(19:55):
the way this is set up, and I know in
the movie we can't, Oh, you haven't seen the movie.
You have seen the movie.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
I have not.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
You have not seen the movie. It like we know
the controversy comes later. We've talked about this before about
Samantha not returning that the actress Kim Katrall and Sarah
just caa partner, had a falling out quite huge and
still is at this time. But like they try to
rewrite Samantha as the best friend to Carrie, and I'm like,
(20:24):
in all of the show, it looks like Miranda has
always been the best best friend. They tried not to
like necessarily like actually pinpoint, but to me, I always
saw that, And this kind of a situates the point
of them being like, we're not getting involved here that conversation.
Later they have even more kind of like connections through
(20:47):
relationships some of that. But anyway, all of that to
say is this is one of those episodes that I'm like,
oh yeah, oh yeah, type the death of the dude,
I kind of forgot.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I was like, who dies.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
The daint that never pans out?
Speaker 1 (21:06):
I mean that would suck. It would Yeah. I have
to say I.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Don't necessarily blame Miranda, but I would never, ever, ever
in a million years, get on the phone with somebody's
mom and be like, well you've raised here.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Miranda makes quite a few mistakes in this episode, like
she broke the girl code.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Yeah yeah, I mean, at least she came to her
senses and was like, no, you are an at all.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Right, at least she defends Carrie when she sees it
and do's call it out. But like typically when someone
tells you oh yeah, which I actually had that happen,
not that it's someone that I dated. It was just
like do you know this person? I was like I do,
and they're like, what do you think. I was like,
don't do it?
Speaker 1 (22:04):
M M, and she did.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Listen, Yeah, And we've talked about this before. It's it's
it's a hard I haven't had that so much as
I've had people start people in relationships that I just
don't think are good relationships. And it's hard to know
the line of like when do you say I actually
(22:28):
really think you should break up or you know, whatever
it is. But it is difficult, and I mean i've
I don't think i've ever done the eye told you so,
but I've been tempted.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
I've been tempted before.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I try not to, especially because you never know if
they go back to each other and then you're the
bad guy. I do both of them. I've had that
happen a couple of times, like they did break up
or something bad happened, and then I'm like, yeah, you
should never see them again all a sudden, like we're
getting married. I'm like, ohrd.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Extremely, extremely But there is also something I feel, and
most of the things that have happened with me and
my friends usually there's something kind of nice about I
got my I said my piece, and at a certain point,
I can't control what they do. But I've said my piece, yeah,
(23:29):
and I've they've they're gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Like, I'll support you. I'll never like let them isolate you.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
But mm hmm. You know how I feel, Yes, you
know how I feel. I'll be there for you, right,
But you know what I said, yep, I said.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Well, I said, oh, okay, we've got two more episodes
left in the season. Yeah, I'm excited this is this
was a good season. I think it like with all
of the like craziness in the season and then we
approach for I think that's when that all the chaos
kind of happens with like actual drama behind the show.
(24:07):
H So it'd be interesting to see if it has
affected because I never knew it until way after the
show was done. There was so much chaos.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Yeah, well we'll be on the lookout for that on
the yes, yes, yes, well I'm excited too because I
have no idea as we reach the finale what it
could be.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Yes, and we're going to try to get a.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Guest hopefully, Yeah, as we do.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
But yes, we shall see, we shall see. Things are
chaotic tempty all the time, but we're doing our best. Listeners.

Hey, this is Annie and smitha. I'm opening to stuff
I've never told your reflection.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
iHeart radio, and we are back with another watching of
Sex and the City. It is a happy hour episode
and like most of our happy hours, if you're doing
anything happy hour ish, do so responsibly. My voice is
(00:32):
still kind of wonky.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
M hm.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
I feel like the more I try to have the
podcast or voice, the worse it gets. Yeah, so I'm
just gonna start screaming into the mic, just kidding. But
with all of that, Annie, are you doing anything happy
hour ish?
Speaker 3 (00:49):
Yes, I still have some of my springtime Belgian ale
that my friend left and it's.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Perfect timing, perfect timing. M I am drinking a sorta yeah. Yeah,
Look so it was on sale this week. Yep. So
look those grocery prices.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I know, I know, I know.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
It's just to get three free, yes, sir. And by
the way, none of these things are sponsors. Outlandishly, I
don't know why, but they're not currently. Of course, things
do change, and maybe one day you're listening to it
and they do not being a sponsor. That'd be cool.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
The future is always emotion, as you had to says,
always emotion is the future.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Let me get it right correctly said, thank you so much.
I prefer that I'm just kidding uh with that. Yes,
we are watching another episode of Sex and the City Together,
which any has not seen many of. We're slowly gaining
I feel like we've definitely gotten to the halfway mark.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Yeah, we've made some so by the time.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I'm sixty, we will have to finish this. If I'm
still podcasting before I retire, we will. We will have
finished this. No, we are on season three, episode sixteen.
The title is Friend of Mees. But before we get
into that, Anie, can you give us a quick look
back about what has been happening in season three.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
I feel that as we reached the halfway point in
season three, we're getting a lot of interesting plot lines.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Oh no, we're almost ending of season three.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Yes, but I think that when I guess, it's like
the two thirds point when like Aiden broke up with
Carrie after she told him she had cheated on him
with Big, And then you've got Charlotte who married Trey.
But now they're dealing with an impotence problem that he
(02:59):
doesn't seemed to have outside of her necessarily, which is
what the last episode was about Miranda is true. She's
trying to meet people and it's not going her away,
including getting braces in the last episode and kind of
(03:19):
getting teased a lot for that, and then Samantha doing
her Samantha thing, which has involved meeting Hugh Heffner, getting
kicked out of Hugh Hefner's party, and then working for
a thirteen.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Year old who had a lot of money.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
To throw away big at Mitzvah party. So I think
I've said this before, but once again, it feels like
there's a lot of disarray happening. There's a lot of like,
what's going on in my life happening? And what do
I want to do with my life happening?
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Is that thirties conundrum? Yeahties forties conundrum?
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Mm hmmmmmmm.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
So with that, yes, we are. Like I said on
this episode of Frenemies, I'm gonna read you. I think
they had what's the tagline here? Once upon a time?
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Never read me?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
The tagline I thought I did for the first time.
It just says Miranda's first date turns into a wake
when the guy drops dead. So I gave you a
big hint on this one. What do you think is
going to happen in this episode.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
I think a big hint is generous because the title
doesn't seem to relate to that at all, unless.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
I don't know. Obviously, there are frenies.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
There are friends in your life who are also enemies.
If somebody drops dead and you go the weak, the
funeral is a place of a lot of drama. Can
run into a lot of frenemies. Funeral horror. Awake, Oh
(05:12):
is that awakes?
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Brush?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
No, ma'am, you can't say brush though.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Yeah, I'm gonna go with brunch for this one.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
All right, brunch, All right, here we go, Here we go.
You ready, Let's get into it. Let's see. How are
you doing?
Speaker 4 (05:45):
My routine had become very routine. I was spending almost
every night in working.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
I've been there.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Hello, Okay, my date is three hours late.
Speaker 5 (05:57):
I'm being stood up, right.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
The date is three hours later. I'm done, that's no.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
And I'm wearing a new dress from Barney's and I'm
eating out of plastic.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Oh man, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
He doesn't even know me. I just bust more plastic
meals because my partner is out of town, so I'm
like linquisine. It is. It's just that I don't want
to cook as much when he's not you know what
I mean?
Speaker 1 (06:21):
Yeah, yeah, but I got a little.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Smarter about picking him now.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
You know, I can't believe guys still stand girls up.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
I can't believe I'm eating a frozen dinner.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I'm such a cliche. You want to grab a drink
or something?
Speaker 5 (06:34):
No, I can't.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
I have to work.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
I agree to teach these stupid learning Annex classes. They're
calling it Bright Lights Date City O.
Speaker 5 (06:42):
I'm so embarrassed for you.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
Right buck, It's a seminar on where to meet men.
Apparently I'm an expert.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
Tell them to steer clear of Starbucks.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I have met I've met a guy at Starbucks and
I dated him for a little bit.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Did you go to a seminar?
Speaker 1 (06:59):
I do, just checking.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Not that Hey, seminars are a bad thing. No, That's
why I think podcasts really came in, Like at the seminar, No,
like how like how to's and what to do and
all these things historical looks and learning. Yeah, podcasts are
the new seminars.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Thanks true.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
Him stood up.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
At twenty seven, Miranda had done nothing. At thirty four,
she decided she wasn't going to take this stand up
lying down. Will may have given her the cold shoulder,
but he had also given her his home number.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Hello, Hi, is Will there?
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Who speaking? Hi?
Speaker 5 (07:50):
Miranda Hobbs, Miranda's mom will Will's I don't know how
you raised your son, but he just stood me.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Up for a day. Well guide Today.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
They're starting to Oh no, I think I would collapse.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
This is not technically brunch at the gym, but they
are eating breakfast.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
It looks brunchy.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I will give you credit because they are eating breakfast.
This is not quite much. There are no mimosas.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
It's not it's not a bunch of out of mimosas.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I believe that's a sexist city. Quote.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, I can only get what I think. I think
you're right just saying.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
I, actually, this isn't a fear I have if someone
just dies and I send them a text and it's
like mean or stupid.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Yeah, I've thought about that darkly, Like when people are
gone from classes like Zumba I've known and have it,
don't see them. I'm like, what if something happened to them?
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Yeah, this is the last thing I said.
Speaker 4 (09:04):
Yeah, there are two million single men in the city.
I have dated about a million of them. And all
these men are right outside your door. So the next
time you step out in the morning with your shoes
(09:25):
and your toad and you're traveling cappuccino, take a look around,
because I'm telling you our little metropolis it is stacked
with men.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
You never know. I wonder what the statistics are now
about how many single men are in New York City.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
That would be interesting.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
I'm gonna look it up as we're watching this.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
Could you be more specific, you mean, like places to
meet men?
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Can you be more sure specific?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
That was pretty vague.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
Enjoy sporting sports spars, Mickey Mantles.
Speaker 6 (09:59):
Oh, I've gone there.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
All the men were married?
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Really?
Speaker 4 (10:03):
Really?
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Okay, I've always and this is kind of a Debbie
downer from me, I've always felt a lot of these
seminars are not super helpful. No, they're not, because they
are just kind of like get after he like, No,
I've been doing that.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Yes, you are you married?
Speaker 4 (10:25):
No?
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Oh, the age old question? Are you married?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
What qualifies you to give advice?
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Which, as we've discussed, plenty of advice to give, but
that is a question that often comes up.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
I'm really not an expert on men.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Okay, I just write about this stuff.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Then why are we paying to hear you talk about it?
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Come on, why are we here?
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Wow? They turned very quickly.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Okay. According to West Side Spirit, as of January twenty
twenty six, about fifty three percent of adults in New
York City are single. Hm, I'm.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
Do you know that there are no available men out there? Uh?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
We're at my date's wake, so yes, gosh, we're so
what there is a funeral? What do I know about men?
Is a bunch of relations.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
I guess I would go there. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Well after saying that to his mother would be like
wow or something.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
You should send something. I don't know why I go.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Well, as as I have recently been to a funeral
that I was like, I don't I don't know why
I'm here. I don't know why here. It is awkward.
Oh yeah, could you imagine playing this character who just died?
Speaker 1 (11:53):
That's your whole your whole thing.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Like I was supposed to date one of the sec
the city women, but.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
I just dropped bed in the beginning instead.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I'm can I get you ladies anything? Oh Martini, No,
don't go anywhere. I'll be back. He's kind of cute.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
He's kind of an asshole, really, Oh yes, indeed, but
he seems great. Oh sure, that's what I thought too
when I started dating him. Then when we both knew
it wasn't working and I broke up with him. A hello, asshole,
you know, snide comments and rumors spreading works.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
But he's so cute.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
So how do you feel about when friends date an ex,
especially if they're giving you a warning bag this is
not a good person.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
I don't I would not like it, I can admit it,
especially if I told them.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Unless they had demonstrably changed right, And even then I
would be suspicious. I kind of had this happen in
high school, but that was high school, so I don't
think I would necessarily apply that to.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Adult life.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
But in high school, I was like, no, this guy
sucks and I don't understand why if you're not listening
to me.
Speaker 5 (13:26):
How upset would you be if I went out with Jim,
Jim old boyfriend Jim.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
He called me, oh, Marena, no money. He so needs
to be voted off the islands.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
I know how you feel, But he was so sweet
on the phone. And it was eight years ago. Carrie,
maybe he's learned something. I mean, haven't you learned anything
in eight years?
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Apparently not.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
He's alive and he asked me out.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
I'm a little fraid stand the standards are low.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
I mean, it's like you have someone dye and you're like, well, maybe.
Speaker 5 (14:06):
I am.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
No.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Carrie wasn't sure that we would get along. She knew
me a long time ago. I've changed.
Speaker 4 (14:15):
I mean back then I was in a band called
Uncle Ted's Act and I could sit on my hand.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Wow, that's impressive. You didn't hear us play.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
I just feel I hear that excuse a lot. It's true,
you can change, but I feel like I hear it
a lot, and that's all it is.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
It's an excuse.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Did you anybody's me?
Speaker 1 (14:38):
I mostly see it in public figures.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Oh yeah, yeah right, not in my personal experience.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
I am.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
Uptown. Charlotte decided this would be a a good time
to spend with her real old friends, the sisters of Kappa.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Cap to force a friendship.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Might be brunch. It's so great to see you, Charlotte.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
We've really missed you, and.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
I I'm uncomfortable with this.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I love that tying a sweater around your neck means
that you're an elitist somehow.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Yeah, you've got a sweater. I don't need it, but
I have one. Hey, Jim, come on, just happy memories.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Carrie doesn't walk all over people. She sure did with me. Well,
maybe that's because you're an ass whole.
Speaker 5 (15:40):
I'm a soul.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
She's the asshole.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
She never called me once after we broke up.
Speaker 4 (15:44):
That's because you're a whole.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
She's the asshole.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
She's not asshole.
Speaker 6 (15:49):
Thank you, sweetie.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
You know what, Never call me again. You're breaking up
with me?
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Oh yeah, the fancy lawyer ladies breaking up with me
like I give aush.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Like third grade antics. Oh wow, he's just angry.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
He's just been hanging on to that for years. Come on, Charlotte,
you're my wife. That's not you take it off. That's weird.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Line. It's supposed to be sexy.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
You're my wife.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Okay, shouldn't you find your wife sexy? It's a weird,
like Charlotte line, look at me. Yeah, and also, shouldn't
you have seen your woman late naked?
Speaker 1 (16:42):
He's got some repressed this is your wife.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Yeah I'm not I'm agonna and I'm not a whore.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
I'm your wife, and I'm sexual and I love you.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
You know, the thing goes a lady in the streets,
She'll say, and then you fill out the rest. That's
how I was supposed to go.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
That's what you ow. Yes, as the saying goes.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
As that saying goal, that's what you want. That's what
Ludacros said.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
That's what he said. Therefore we must read the heart.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Let go get it.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
I am, and I have to tell you I don't
know a whole lot about it, but I do know this.
You are not going to meet them sitting in a
learning annex class.
Speaker 6 (17:34):
So ladies, grab your bags. Come on, we're not getting
any younger. Chop chop, that's right. I'm just trying to
give your money's worth, all right.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
I took them around the corner to a bar and
took my three hundred dollars and bought them drinks.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
This reminds me of when I was a kid and
I asked my mom, how do you meet men? Is
it as at a bar? And she was like no.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
I got to hit on a couple of times in
the bar, but I was so goofy that I was like, no,
I don't like you, like I was like, not about it.
I was mostly kind of like I'm here with my
friends leaving.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Yeah, usually was the situation.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
All right, well, I am going to count the breakfast
as brunch. There may have been a brunch. It didn't
look brunch. It's just like a lunch. But we're going
to give you that I throw in. There was a wake,
which I told you that there was a wake. Yeah.
And there were finemies, which is in the title.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Look, I feel like that title is not giving me
a lot to.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Work work with, which is why you said there's front
of mees.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
I did my best with the knowledge that I had.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
I'll give you information that I had an eighty eight
at a hundred on that one, that one that was
hibee higbee hibee, because you know, you you danced around there,
you danced around there. There were there were lots no
I I kind of forgot this episode myself, and then
I read through it. I was like, oh yeah, yeah,
because it wasn't like two consequential yeah, Like there wasn't
(19:34):
like a huge analysis. There's not really big name stars
in here or guest stars that that's kind of like,
oh yeah, I remember this person, this person. Uh, but
it does kind of open up to like the understanding
of the extremes against Charlotte versus Samantha, which is always
a thing typically in here. I've always thought because of
(19:55):
the way this is set up, and I know in
the movie we can't, Oh, you haven't seen the movie.
You have seen the movie.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
I have not.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
You have not seen the movie. It like we know
the controversy comes later. We've talked about this before about
Samantha not returning that the actress Kim Katrall and Sarah
just caa partner, had a falling out quite huge and
still is at this time. But like they try to
rewrite Samantha as the best friend to Carrie, and I'm like,
(20:24):
in all of the show, it looks like Miranda has
always been the best best friend. They tried not to
like necessarily like actually pinpoint, but to me, I always
saw that, And this kind of a situates the point
of them being like, we're not getting involved here that conversation.
Later they have even more kind of like connections through
(20:47):
relationships some of that. But anyway, all of that to
say is this is one of those episodes that I'm like,
oh yeah, oh yeah, type the death of the dude,
I kind of forgot.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
I was like, who dies.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
The daint that never pans out?
Speaker 1 (21:06):
I mean that would suck. It would Yeah. I have
to say I.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Don't necessarily blame Miranda, but I would never, ever, ever
in a million years, get on the phone with somebody's
mom and be like, well you've raised here.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Miranda makes quite a few mistakes in this episode, like
she broke the girl code.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Yeah yeah, I mean, at least she came to her
senses and was like, no, you are an at all.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Right, at least she defends Carrie when she sees it
and do's call it out. But like typically when someone
tells you oh yeah, which I actually had that happen,
not that it's someone that I dated. It was just
like do you know this person? I was like I do,
and they're like, what do you think. I was like,
don't do it?
Speaker 1 (22:04):
M M, and she did.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Listen, Yeah, And we've talked about this before. It's it's
it's a hard I haven't had that so much as
I've had people start people in relationships that I just
don't think are good relationships. And it's hard to know
the line of like when do you say I actually
(22:28):
really think you should break up or you know, whatever
it is. But it is difficult, and I mean i've
I don't think i've ever done the eye told you so,
but I've been tempted.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
I've been tempted before.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I try not to, especially because you never know if
they go back to each other and then you're the
bad guy. I do both of them. I've had that
happen a couple of times, like they did break up
or something bad happened, and then I'm like, yeah, you
should never see them again all a sudden, like we're
getting married. I'm like, ohrd.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Extremely, extremely But there is also something I feel, and
most of the things that have happened with me and
my friends usually there's something kind of nice about I
got my I said my piece, and at a certain point,
I can't control what they do. But I've said my piece, yeah,
(23:29):
and I've they've they're gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Like, I'll support you. I'll never like let them isolate you.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
But mm hmm. You know how I feel, Yes, you
know how I feel. I'll be there for you, right,
But you know what I said, yep, I said.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Well, I said, oh, okay, we've got two more episodes
left in the season. Yeah, I'm excited this is this
was a good season. I think it like with all
of the like craziness in the season and then we
approach for I think that's when that all the chaos
kind of happens with like actual drama behind the show.
(24:07):
H So it'd be interesting to see if it has
affected because I never knew it until way after the
show was done. There was so much chaos.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Yeah, well we'll be on the lookout for that on
the yes, yes, yes, well I'm excited too because I
have no idea as we reach the finale what it
could be.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Yes, and we're going to try to get a.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Guest hopefully, Yeah, as we do.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
But yes, we shall see, we shall see. Things are
chaotic tempty all the time, but we're doing our best. Listeners.
