Speaker 1 (00:00):
Look mare, Oh, I see you my own look over
there is that culture? Yes, goodness, wow, lost culture, last culture.
Now what are they going to talk about today? That's
what all the readers are saying. Now, what are they
going to talk about today?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Well, I'm genuinely asking this question because we are recording
this on the same week as last week's episode, very near,
very near, and so I do have that, you know,
podcast or anxiety. I think, oh am, I not going
to have anything to talk about with my co host.
But I know that's never a challenge with.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
You have, Ppa. I don't podcast performance anxiety. Hep ah
my god, do I just create We just created a
new contemporary disease mental illness Ppa, Oh my god, Canadian
golden showers. Yes, lover saying Ppa, I'm saying right now,
(00:57):
this is going to be the best Last Cultures out
of all time. Today, Honey, I don't doubt it. I
don't doubt it. Well, there's much to celebrate and remember
and reflect upon. Oh, can we just well, what do
you want to talk about? First? Listen? We can start
on a mournful note. I think we have to start
in a mournful note. Yeah, because we're recording this On Saturday,
September second, last night, a legend passed. Jimmy Buffett has
(01:22):
passed at age seventy six. He was the singer, songwriter, icon, author,
and entrepreneur. Billionaire. He was a genius. He was valued
at one billion dollars. And this is when you go,
maybe not all billionaires. Are not all billionaires. If it's
Rihanna and Jimmy, if it's Rihanna and Jimmy and soon Taylor,
(01:43):
three of the least evil people in the entertainment industry,
those are the three least evil people in the entertainment
They are the kindest, biggest slaves.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Actually, I will say Taylor giving the teamsters bonuses.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
That's good. Are you kidding me? That was huge to
give him a huge bonus. I mean like that's like
everyone on the whole thing got one hundred thousand dollars.
But we digress. Here's the thing we're talking about Jimmy.
Now we're talking about Jimmy and I so the Taylor
Swift of his time in many ways, bitch, did you
know he is? I read his obituary, as many people did.
(02:17):
One of only five or six writers, including Ernest Hemingway
and fucking John Steinbeck to top to be number one
on the bestsellers list for nonfiction and fiction. Yeah, yeah,
I mean he had a real connection to people and
to like creativity, to art. Yeah, and this man Ryan's
(02:37):
flip flop with pop top you never forgot. You never
forgot that blew out my flip flop stepped on a
pop top? What is it? What's the rest? Had a
cruise the way the cruise on back home, a cruise
on back home. Honestly, here's the thing about Jimmy Buffett
who And I was reading about him today too, just briefly,
I felt like I didn't even need to just need
you have the bibliography on him. I needed to. He
(03:00):
is giving jaws like you don't know, Jimmy Offfitt. If
you're not American, I feel that is the America. I want.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
This man who is able to unite people from every
end of life, Yes, make them feel welcome, either in
the music or in the eating establishments, just the lifestyle,
Gulf and Western lifestyle. He created something many special things.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
He as a true artist in that he had a
vision in combining fucking like Calypso country rock that's incredible.
He invented a new way of expressing it. It was
yacht rock, and it was been yacht but it wasn't,
but it was still so signature and to have that
in the music, end in the brand, and therefore in
(03:46):
people's lives. My dad sent me the sweetest message I posted.
I was thinking about him today, Trina. Actually I called
him this morning. It was the first thing I did
when I woke up. I looked at my phone. I
was on a group Texas to Jimmy Buffett and tagged
me and said, Matt, where thinking of your dad? And
I literally called my dad. And I didn't know what
to expect, and I didn't know if I could expect
(04:07):
him to be like emotional or what. But they were
at the beach and they came to the beach to
pour one out for Jimmy. It's just I texted Andy
actually to see how he was doing because they were friends.
And apparently he was really at peace when he went
like apparently he had been sick for some time and
that everything was accepted and you know, everything was good.
(04:30):
And I felt like, yeah, I mean what, that's like
a fitting way for him to go, like truly like
at peace. And also the fact is if he had
been sick for a while and no one knew about it.
I mean, this is someone who's like a cultural icon
and no one knew he had been struggling. In this way,
I think he genuinely had care for his fans up
until the very end. He's like, I don't want them
(04:50):
to know that I'm suffering. I want them to think
it's still a party, you know what I mean. And
even in the way that they disclosed, his manner of
passing was very like the vibes were good, and it's
just so rough because my dad said like he was
the music to my voyage. Oh my god. Yeah, people
(05:11):
have a connection your dad being like the parrot head.
You've seen that room in my old house. I've seen
the room. It is imagine a corner in a basement
at the basement, right, it was like the back den.
The back den. Yeah, that is just airlifted out of
city walk. Yes, it's beautiful. It was. It was a
(05:33):
beautiful room. And but I'm just saying like this, there
were so many parrots in that room. So remember counting them.
I didn't count them. Oh I count there was about
twenty three parrots. Did did you just count the parrots
in Broadway ants or no, I think we did that,
count the parents in Broadways. But in Broadway Ants, which
was my old web series with Doug White with Doug Whydeck,
they did debrief all the shows they saw in that room.
(05:56):
I think we discussed it. Funny. That's so funny.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
No, I'm saying, like he provided an esthetic for so
many people, your dad included obviously. Yeah, it's a lifestyle.
And when you sell people a lifestyle that is like harmless. Yeah,
and like it's about chilling out. It's about chilling out.
Like that is like thank god he like provided that
(06:21):
on such a scale. Yeah, And I don't mean scale
in the business, and I just mean like in terms
of like getting into people's hearts and creating a fantasy
for people that is like really lovely.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I think is beautiful. I mean it really is like this,
Like I think that a lot of people that were
his fans were actually hard working type a people who
just literally wanted a break. And literally he personified what
it meant to take a break, to take a break.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
But see, even even if you're talking about like him
not wanting to worry his fans for any illness because
the party is still going. I mean that is like
a pure commitment to that idea because even he, like
I think like after a certain age, was like, this
isn't what I do anymore necessarily in my own life,
but I will still sing about it. I'm very much
(07:09):
like when he started writing books. I think was when
he was like buckling down and being like I am
just gonna be like pretty like square and not be
like this man. But then I'll dress up on stage
as this guy. M like, that is there's such a
beauty to that too.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
What if today Beyonce at Renaissance Stur does a cover
of cheeseburger. Imagine Beyonce at Renaissance in La in La,
just like so close to her birthday. She's like, we
need to stop the show tonight. We have lost a
legend because you know Beyonce respect of course she does,
(07:44):
and she shut it all down to saying geez burger
in paradise. I would love that. If she is worth
her salt, she will turn to God and she will
say up there in heaven, I see you, Jimmy. Here's
(08:04):
my sunning rendition. She has of cheeseburger and she has
to this man.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Just before the skincarelines and the fucking.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Before my Slabs, there was Margaritaville, And that's a rule
of culture. Number nine before house, I believe your go
to is House Flabs and not fenty or like No,
for me, the number one celebrity brand is House Lab Labs.
Should we do a House Labs episode where we have like,
(08:37):
do we do a video and we have a woman
come in who's like incredible jobs and we just do
a house we should just get rap?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Maybe her name is Stephanie GERMANA. What if Gaga ever
came on the pod? That would be first of all,
I realized that I am going through my life with
Gaga the same way you.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Am going through my life with Yaga, the same way
you did for a long time with Kelly.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Where like I have fear about meeting her, yes, I
completely understand. And if I've ever presented the option where
it's not completely on my own terms, I will decline.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Do you know what I'm saying? And if she were to.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Ever come on this pod, can you even imagine I?
That would be my not to compare it to your
journey or your voyage, but I would not be able
to keep now.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I have such.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Respect for the composure and the professionalism you kept around
her during her episode. It's even on fucking film, like
I would not be able to keep it together.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
But we're going to. I don't know, I'm putting it out.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Anything is possible at this point, really, especially in a
post Kelly landscape on Lost Culturistas.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
But I I just if we committed, I think we
could make a serious case for God. Come on the pod,
we come on, you know what will do? This is
what I want to do. I want to go to
Vegas with you and see her jazz and pian I know,
and do it there?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Did you see she did stupid love jazz rendition and
it sounds dare I say, little monsters just saying it
sounds better the original?
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I mean, why wouldn't it. She's just a constant sleigh.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Constant sight, like the horns come in and it's like Woo's.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
I would love that, do you?
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I mean not that this would have happened because he
was sick and we don't know what he would have
been able to do. You have regrets about not getting
Jimmy on?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh? I mean like that would have been fun. But
I don't. It's a difference. The reason why he's more
significant for me is through my father. It's not for me.
It's just like it will always connect to that joy.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
He's the type of person I'm sure who would not
have minded that like someone's parent of a different generation.
I mean, no way was like their gateway through to even.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Like the title of his Greatest Hits album is one
of the best greatest Hits titles. It's songs you know
by heart. That's just like straightforward, it's like beautiful, Yeah,
these are songs you know by heart. And guess what
they were not hits. He actually only had any I
always video was like the only like chart come Monday.
And I think Margaritaville probably at some point just because
(11:06):
of the all I want for Christmas is uness of Margaritaville.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Yes, yes, oh my god, inspiration inspiration is struck. The
genius is in the walls. Can I ask did he
invent the phrase it's five o'clock somewhere? Did he invent that?
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Well, that was a song that he did with Kenny Chesney,
but based on the phrase I don't I can't, let's
look it up. I feel who invented? Who coined what
this is? Good? Okay, so you guys, we're here in
the culture lab and we're typing away who coined the phrase?
Speaker 2 (11:35):
It appears like comedian Red Skelton coined I re least
popularized the phrase in nineteen fifty nine.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Oh wait, so this is interesting. You know when you
type something into Google and it fills in Yeah, so
this is what I love when that happened. This is
what happens when you type in who coined the phrase? Okay,
and let's see if you can answer each one, and
it's quiz bowl. Okay, who coined the phrase manifest destiny?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
I think I feel like that is a because in
paintings have manifest destiny, there's like an angel. I feel
like it's either a Christian thing or it's like a
Greek thing.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Why do I feel like it's like Andrew Jackson maybe
who coined the phrase? And now I'm gonna click it.
John John Lewis O'Sullivan eighteen thirteen to eighteen ninety five
American and her they paint Columbia. Yeah, yeah, they paint
like the woman Columbia, right, America. She's like moving across
the island. I think, yes, yes, yes, what it was
(12:27):
was like, it is our destiny to manifest the entirety
of the continent of America. Yeah, totally period period. Okay,
what are you coined the phrase? Oh? My god, this
is our news segment? Who coined the phrase? Who coined
the phrase cold war? Oh? Interesting? These are a little
too historic, don't you think? Do you want to just say,
(12:49):
my guests, Yeah, your.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Guess who coined the phrase cold war? I'm gonna say
that it predates the actual cold warm Hm, let's say
it was I don't fucking know know, Walt Whitman.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
The first use of the term to describe the specific
post war geopolitical confrontation between the Soviet Union and the
United States, came in a speech by Bernard Baruch, an
influential advisor to Democratic presidents, on April sixteenth, nineteen forty seven.
I would have never known. Yep, So this is this
still fun? After one more, we're gonna find out who
(13:28):
coined the phrase rock and roll? Oh I don't pos
I'm sure Alan Freed was his name anyway, anyway, Sorry,
I didn't mean to No, you're right, it's not being fun,
probably like one and a half because I've never heard
of these fucking people I know, But isn't it interesting?
Like we weren't wrong, We just weren't right. We just
weren't right. We sort of knew something. That's actually a
(13:51):
really interesting test of what the fuck you remember from
high school? All the bullshit that we had just said
through Do you remember one? Man? I remember a lot
of maths trig If I put a trigonometry problem in
front of your face right now, what would happen?
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I don't know, but you know what this is what
blows my mind. There are friends of ours who know
this shit because they have to, oh for tutoring. It's
like Josh Sharp knows every fucking.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Yup, he's got to know the periodic table. Charlie Barday
is out here teaching kids the sat right. Yeah, he
a'm getting that wrong. Yep, he has to know the
quadratic that I'm like, thank god, thank god, although I
would have if I needed to. Yes, does that sound weird? Not?
It doesn't sound weird. I was sitting here thinking like
how lost I would be on one of those tests,
(14:40):
like if you put like THET in front of me
right now, which, by the way, I'm sorry to do
this to you. But you do have perfect scores on
both these tests. No Nosa sac SAT. Was you flopped
on SAT?
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Wow, bitch, I got a twenty two hundred out of
twenty four.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
That's slayer. Why would you do I don't want to
do that. Did you see the tellyboard day and Joe
Castel Baker? I want to stay in that house against
(15:22):
speak it.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
That was the charge already house and we got a
little you know, that was when we talked about the
house and quote unquote made fun of it, even though
it did on my knees begging them to forgive us.
They did and ultimately it was fine, but it was
because that house is stunning. I've had rough parties there
one weeks where I was not staying in that house
where it was like every geek when you've ever met,
(15:45):
was like, I mean.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Yes, but also it's like it's about how you fill
the house yourself. You know what you fill the house?
We'd love.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
That house will always be very special to me. I
have very special memories in that house, and I am sorry.
Sometimes we do this Reader's Keys Publicis finalists and Matt
comes in with one energy, I come in with another.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Today it was the energy was. Matt was like, oh,
we God, we have so much to talk about, and
my energy was we just recorded four days ago. I
know you're so right.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
I wanted to talk about although enjoyment. Although, but I
think although when joined that last week, do you know
what I'm googling?
Speaker 1 (16:20):
What is popular right now? No? No, no, no, no,
let's say no. This is our first pop Crave episode
where we go down Popcrave to eight Popcrave episode. Can
I tell you I have had so much news day
they will win a Pulitzer by the end of this
half decade by twenty twenty five. I mean, forget about CNN,
(16:42):
MSNBC saying Trump was arrested. I found out from Popcrave.
I think every time Trump has been arrested, it's been
pop Crave. They have someone placed everywhere.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Popcrave broke the story of Charlie xcx unfollowing arena and
then tweeting messy Era, and then that caused it's actu
an uproar that Charlie had to put out an extra
like statement about.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Pop Crave is scaring the girl? Wait, what's going on
with that Charlie stuff?
Speaker 2 (17:08):
I don't really know, but then the statement she put
out was basically like, I didn't want to do this,
but after getting off the phone with Rina, I just
think you should all know that this happened over a
personal disagreement.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
And blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
And I'm like, wow, pop Crape is forcing fucking the girls,
forcing the girls to talk, and isn't that huge?
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Okay? Do you want to get tweet by tweet pop Crave? Yes,
Pop Crave, that is so okay.

Camp Rock Too. The Final Jam premiered thirteen years ago.
I was never a camp Rock kid.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
I actually, for some reason, the YouTube wormhole that I've
fallen into is like Disney Kids, and like Disney Kids
when they first appeared on Allen uh huh. And it's
so funny that camp Rock was such a sensation that
Debbie Latta was huge, because it really wasn't that girl
like high school musical, was that girl that was phenomenon?
Camp Rock was not who literally watched Camp Rock? Can
(19:14):
I actually throw that question out there?
Speaker 2 (19:15):
You're gonna get millions of responses. Seriously, we were in
that window where it would not have been cool to
watch it. I think we were like at that age
we're like, oh, you watched like high school musical.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
I remember we were. It worked because I was in
high school. It still hit me so hard.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I think we were like right in college as Camp
Rock YEP, thirteen years ago. So what is that like
twenty ten? So then we were in college, right, we
were like trying to be cool college students in New
York wearing black, smoking cigarette, you know what I mean? Yeah,
So that's no people people fucking worship this shit. Yeah,
they truly love Camp Rock. There's people out there that
(19:50):
truly love it. And I'm really.

gonna read the next one, okay. Selena Gomez tells the
Cruise show that she and Carol G have talked about
possibly collaborating together. Carol G, do you have any thoughts
she's a star?
Speaker 1 (21:12):
I actually literally don't know who she is can and
I cannot describe how much I could not pick her
out of a crowd.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Well, don't worry, because the second you see her in
the if you see her in a lineup or in

I am committing myself to this fall before Pink Friday too.
Oh by the way that we say, no, I need

single on Pink Friday was your Love and that was
like way out of left field.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I love that she's doing this me too. Wait, should
we do a live lesson? Is that even allowed? It's allowed.
If we're talking over it, it's allowed. Okay, so we're

something from Mariah. You can't be putting a butterfly in
(26:07):
your video and not be thinking about it, especially a monarchy,
especially this song is about Mariah. I wish I would
have hugged you tighter last time that the last time
I saw you. I bet you. I bet she thinks
about the times when she and Mariah were like friends,
because my face they were getting along. Oh my god,
about my face. The video with the two of them,
(26:28):
like they.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Are smiling, having a good time, like kiking, like Mariah, ooh.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Maybe I pushed you away because I thought that I'd
in that long, long space and then bore you. I
love I love her use of silence in this like
I killed it. That's a huge hit. That's a huge hit.
Last time I saw you, girl, Okay, tell you've been
crying to talk to. First of all, this is a
(27:01):
fun game to play. Readers, finalists, publicist Kties play the game.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
We say one person in the group says, just sings
on a tone girl or that was two notes, but
just it can be girl and and and then see
what the response is from the group.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
It could be where do you think you'll go in?
It could be I could tell you been crying and
needing somebody top two. It could be Girl put your
records on.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Oh wait, stop it all. It's the Girl game. This
is the Girl Game, the Girl. Oh my god. This
is on track to be one of the best Last
Cultural ississ episodes of all time. This is one of
the best Last Culture recessed episodes of all time. And
here we are at halfway. Here, we are at the
halfway point, and we're checking in to say so far,
and we're in the lab. We're actually checking the statistics. Yes,
(27:52):
it is the best episode of Last Culture Recess of
all the time. And that's title of the best Last
Culture Recess episode of all time with Matt and Bowen.
You were about to say something, Girl, you had a
song put your records on. Oh no, what I was
gonna say was we had such a moment with Girl
put your records on. Brian Bailey Ray in Fire Island
(28:14):
like it truly filled the house. And when I say
that is better than you remember it is aged like
a fucking cask of wine. Oh wischris like a fucking
cask that's a real culture. Number sixty three put your
(28:34):
records on has age like a fucking cask. What is
she up to now? Well, she's forty four love in
the prime of her life. She is living in England.
What is she doing now, let's see twenty sixteenth to present.
She's just kind of out there. She's out there, She's
out there. Look.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
I first discovered this woman on an episode of Gray's Anatomy,
on the episode entitled Yesterday, which is the first episode
after the Code Black episodes. The premiere of Eric Dane
as Mark Who Could Forget?
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Who Could Forget?
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Really seem perfectly soundtracked this show music supervised by the
legend Alex Pastavas like a Starbuck and Bailey Ray plays.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
Just stop cos Masma, Oh you need to do her bones? Bones?
Got y? Do you know what I was thinking today,
Like this is the fiftieth and it's like, oh, this
is don't worry.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
But if if this strike goes on till next May,
then there might not be a forty nine, which I
will not come to that.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Although, what's your temperature, Let's take the temperature. I don't
want to just take the temperature.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Just such a bummer to talk about the strikes. But
there is an emotional turning point potentially now that we're
past Libor Day, because remember it was the vibe early
on where it was like, this will be done by
Labor Day, and they gave me some symbolic and whatever
blah blah blah, like to finish it on Labor Day.
But this is when we all go like, God, damn,
this sucks. Anyway, let's not talk about it anymore.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
You've brought them. I can't. This was this was on
track to be the best Lost Culture episode of all time.
By the way, we're recording in my new apartment in
Long Island City. We didn't give a sense of place
(30:35):
our first Long Island City episode. This is our first
Queen's episode Queens and Queens. I would say that that
would be a good title of now, but the fact
is that this is called the best Lost Culturess episode
of all times because what it is because what we
did a live listen of Nicki min As Wow, and
(30:59):
it's a hook. It's kind of giving Drake, I.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Guess, don't say his name. Drake came on Shuffle and
I thought I used to love this man. Someone literally
on TikTok did a poll of like, say something in
the comments if you're a true blue like Drake Stan,
if you're not a guy, let's say now, I liked
(31:22):
some one or two albums ago where he did like
a house themed one. I used to know every word
to this man's song, like take Care, I know every
word on that album. Mm hmm, fucking I used to
love this man anyway, It's just what a what a
weird tragic thing. And then his whole thing with fucking
Megan is like so fucking shit.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
I can't believe that. I just like god, this man
anyway to in any way not be up in arms
when a woman is shot, like to can you fucking imagine.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
The thing that like all these guys are trying to
put holes in is like, well, she's lying, like did
it happen? I'm like, fuck, like in a court of law,
it got you know, worked out. So whatever that means
to you, I don't know anyway. Should we keep going
on pop Crave or are you done?
Speaker 1 (32:04):
What's happening with Popcrave? Wait? What is happening with Barbie?
What records hasn't broken lately? Barbie is now the highest
grossing movie have twenty twenty three and it's September. Good
luck to any other movie that tries. Barbie has defeated,
Mario Let that sink in Barbie has defeated. It is
(32:27):
the year of women of women. It is the year
of Greta Girlwig. Okay, so get this. One day we
get an email. Here's people that have been pitched for
the podcast Greta Gerwig. We say, uh yeah, never heard back.
Can I just say if you reach out and we
(32:49):
go yeah, yeah, but you got to reach back out.
Can I go public on something? Oh my god, I
think Greta and Noah are mad at me. BF Why
I got cut out of White Noise and you spoke
up about it? I did not pick up about it.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Oh and I was potentially going to have an appearance
in Listen this is gonna be a fucking thing. I
was potentially gonna be in the Barbie movie, as has
been maybe reported on. I think gret is mad at me.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
Why. I don't know why I have not heard from
the woman. Help me reach out Gretta being mad? You
were and she was supposed to come on Lost culturstas
I know, stop being mad? Stop being mad? Oh god,
that has to feel really, really shitty for you, because
it's to run awe to run a fel of either.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
One of that howerd Cup. You hate to run, hate
to run a foul, but to both. For some reason,
I pissed off both of these legends.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
You hate to run. The Oscar winners of Hollywood power
Players one.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
Oscar winner, one Oscar nominee. Neither the neither are the
Oscar winners one as an Oscar. No I believe Noah
has an Oscar for a marriage story. And this is
why it's good that we're in the lab. Noah bomb
back and the answer is, oh, sorry, they neither have
won an Oscar. Oh god, I'm just I'm just digging
(34:17):
myself into a deeper well, aren't I? Because now they're
going to listen to this, and then they're gonna be like,
why did you have to remind us that?
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Why did you have to remind us that we were
only nominated? Why the hell did you add no injury?
But Noah, Greta, you gotta let me know what I did,
because I suffering. I suffer. So I recently watched there
was like something floating around from the dances. Huh oh yeah,
(34:45):
she's such a she's literally number one. I wrote that
I know we really do stand. We stand, we stand,
and uh oh, can I say something I'm pissed off
about in relation to this? So I went on Keep
It and talked about the Barbie movie Yeah, And they
released a social media asset that made it look like
(35:05):
you was like being anti Barbie. And I just want
to say I am extremely pro Barbie. I have seen
it twice. It's one of my favorite movies of the year.
I think everyone in its lade. Did I leave a
little bit confused because I wasn't when I thought I
was going to get yes. But it's fine to process
art over time, and I fucking love it. And I
feel like, well, Lewis was very negative about the movie,
(35:28):
and he kind of swept you into his I felt like,
in order to keep a conversation going, I had to
be like, yeah, I can see why you'd say that
this I could agree with, just to like have a
subduct conversation about Undercurrent. And he was very black and
white about the fact that he hated it. But I
loved it, and it made it seem like I did it,
And I just want to say it really hurt the
(35:50):
heart to see that people didn't understand I only have
love for Barbie when I think you know, page six.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
If you're going to report on this episode, as Bowen
Yang complains about not being in the bar movie, you
have to couple that reporting along with the fact that
Matt Rodgers is pro Barbie and the social media assets
for Headgum painted him in a terrible.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Well, it wasn't Headgun. It was actually crooked crooked. I'm sorry.
We hate to call it out. I'm sorry to We
hate to start hurt you. This episode is a five.
This episode is a battlefield, much like love. Should the
title that be battlefield? No, it has to be the
(36:31):
greatest and the best episode of last culture time. We
just want to remind everyone listening, take this podcast with
the grain of salt. You know what I mean. You
might be reporting, Oh you take this with the big
old rock. Take us with a rock assault, Honey, that's
actually realer coachure number five. Take us with the rock
of salt assault rock. Yeah, what is the best cocktail
(36:55):
you've had recently? God?
Speaker 2 (36:57):
I was my knee jerk response was gonna be a
rocket fuel. But that that was the thing that fucking
I was really I would say I was pretty down
and out before Busted when we were on Fire Island,
because as we mentioned last week, we all ordered rocket fuels.
That was the drink that made Matt say, I like this,
I'm gonna have three of these. And I enjoyed it
(37:19):
as well. As we've said, it's a pinacletta with a
rum floater, not even just any and so it really
knocked me off my feet in the period between Head
of Lettus and Busted and Cherry Grove, and I was
starting to close my eyes and potentially fall asleep, which
(37:41):
really pissed off Matt Rogers.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
Way, did I actually get mad you? I was. You
were very drunk and.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
You were really getting in my face, threatening me. And
I only say this with love to wake up, to
wake up, and I was, I don't remember this at all.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
You were very threatening. Tell me what do an impression
of me to me? If you close your eyes, I
will have words. It was something like that. It was
to that effect, I will have words. I will have
words that sounds like me. So then what we did
was say I have to wake us up. We walked
over to the beach to look at the stars. Oh,
and then we all went as a group and then
totally black this out.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Okay, so this is the funny sort of irony to
this is that Me, Josh, Aaron, Dave, and Matt Whitaker,
we were all like in one group sort of laughing
and enduring the sea. I turn around, you and Patrick
Rodgers are two dark shadows on the ground because you've
what taken a nap? You full on took a nap
on the beach before, and you were so cruel to me,
(38:46):
and you full on fell asleep, and then like the
entire walk over to the ice place, we're like, Patrick
and I just took a nap, and I was like,
you fucking stupid.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
I am so stupid, and I want to apologize right
now wholeheartedly. I should not have acted that way. It
was untoward because you were threading me what. I didn't
do any impressions. You were grabbing me by the arm. No,
I'm sorry. I think when I turn up, I turn up.
I know you do. And when I turn up, I
got to turn down a little first, because guess what,
(39:17):
I don't know if you remember this part, I busted
at the show later on, I was live there. I
know you really slay. I was jumping up around the room.
I was I tipped this person, busted Queen, our greatest
living performer. Yeah, I had to give over one hundred bucks.
I tipped two hundred.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Yeah, because I wanted to hear Zaturans at least ten times. Yeah,
it's twenty dollars a pot.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
Also, the moment of just putting the twenty in the
bucket and hearing the music come in right away, shouts
to the DJ, because it was just so interactive. It's
an interactive imagine going to Universal Studios and none of
it being on the rails, being a rollercoaster and you
just fly wherever you want to fly.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
Yeah, that's what a busted show is like. Yep, oh
my god, busted did I've been thinking about.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
This joke all week gone.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
So before she performs, she does a lipsic number to
Jesus Take the Wheel. She sits down on her Leopard
Princess out of Nowhere and we again.
Speaker 1 (40:14):
This is before the song. She goes, oh Jesus crass.
The face is what I imagine Carrie Underwood screamed when
she fell down the stairs and broke her face open.
This was in twenty eighteen, Carrie Underwood falling down the
stairs happened like five years ago, and Busted is still
making jokes as her prelude into Jesus take the wheel.
(40:37):
I go. This is a brilliant comedian Byey. I absolutely
could not stand Jesus my face. It came out of nowhere.
You can imagine it might be true, you can't imagine
Jesus Christ. And look, listen, we and all the love.
(41:03):
Can I say, are upset? Carry? I listened to Carrie
today than her song end Up with You, which was
co written by Leland. And I also I want to
say this Carrie Underwood, what a sleigh of a Christmas
special it was on Max Now Max is. She wears
a gorgeous blue shining dress at the end, proving that
(41:23):
Christmas can also be blue. Yes, okay, let that sink in.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
Anyone who eschews the traditional red green of Christmas, you're
a hero. And can I say, including Carrie.
Speaker 1 (41:38):
I don't really do that. I kind of embrace red
and green, not green. That's okay. I don't think green.
I don't think green. No, if you came out in
only green for Christmas, I'd be like, okay, you're giving
Saint Patrick's period, like I can't see you an all
green festive and think Christmas.
Speaker 2 (41:56):
I want someone to come out and give like brown
and red in a way that's like reindeer slash gingerbread.
Speaker 1 (42:07):
Do you know what I mean? I just want someone
to do that. It could be anyone. Well, oh my god,
we just had to hear heat. We had we had
to heat because we share a secret. We share a secret,
and I think I'm ready to tease the secret. Oh
my secret is top braver. You thought that Bowen Yang
(42:30):
and I have collaborated, You ain't seen nothing yet. My god,
Oh my god, this is so you ain't seen nothing yet.
If you think Bowen Yang and I have collaborated, you
nothing yet. I just cracked my knuckles into the mic.
(42:54):
Do you think it's time? I think it's time. This
is a little bit of a shorter episode. No, I
mean because look, here's the thing about I don't think
so honey. It promotes conversations.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
Of course, I do you have something? Yes, okay, this
is Matt Rogers's I don't think so honey. On this
the greatest lost culture ists up of all time, m
h and his time starts now.
Speaker 1 (43:15):
I don't think so honey. Sand Currently in my apartment, No,
there is sand, and guess what. We're actually miles and
miles away from the beach. But it doesn't matter because
of the way sand stays with you when you interact
with it. I have brought it home with me. I
have to say. One of the low points I don't
think so honey, moment of myself and how I felt
about myself was when Bowen Yang we were sharing around
(43:36):
and he was trying to unpack and he said, there
is sand everywhere? Was this? He said, what is this?
And he said this is sand? And he was getting
so worked up, and I was like, this is my
fault because I know that my weakness is sand and
sand control. I don't have any sand control. Whenever I
(43:57):
go to the beach and I interact with the sand,
fifty it is up in everywhere. It is in my shoes,
it is in the towel. I don't interact well, I
guess with an outdoor shower, I really should be utilizing
the facilities, but I don't.
Speaker 2 (44:12):
I don't think so honey, sand because you follow me
and that's one minute, it follows and this is I
just need to give my Raschaman version of.
Speaker 1 (44:21):
Polease And I'm so happy you finally get into this
because you guys, there was actually a dearth of conflict,
but there was a sand moment. Yeah, so this is
what happened. This is how I remember.
Speaker 2 (44:31):
We were packing. This is ramon, did you say unpacking
your packing? We were packing, packing out and then I
lift up shirt or something.
Speaker 1 (44:41):
Yeah, there's like a big This is what like was
peculiar to me. It was a big sort of like
consolidated path of sand. Yeah, like amount of sand, which
makes me think, did you like sweep it there? I'll
tell you what I think happened, and I can only
this is conjecture. Okay, I think think what happened was
there was a fuck ton of sand in my Converse sneaker,
(45:04):
and when I took my shoe and dump it out,
all came out and sort of like dumped out. I
can tell you it was not purposeful. Okay, But was
it what I think happened? Yeah? I don't see.
Speaker 2 (45:16):
And the only reason I am like questioning it, or
that I was questioning it, thank you for telling me,
is because I'm like, Matt wouldn't do that. No, Matt
would not purposefully do that.
Speaker 1 (45:24):
I don't think that that is something a normal person
would do, right, like just dumped out your sandy shoe
in your bedroom, and I don't I hope you don't
think that. I suspect that. No. But what I do
think and what I intuited from your reaction was you
were thinking in your head one word careless, no, careless.
This is again, Rachmon. This is what I remember. I
(45:46):
see the sand, I go, what is this? Oh my god,
what is that? And this is how I remember Russo moan.
You said that's not mine. I was so fun. This
(46:06):
was like during the day. But we were drinking.
Speaker 2 (46:08):
No, we were drinking, and so then you're good, that's
not mine, and I go, well, it's not mine, and
then you were like double down and like made me
think that I did.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
No, Okay, I think, can I tell you. I think
what was happening was I thought it was obviously me
and I was doing a bit like nope, and I
thought you understood. Sometimes I guess I just think you understand.
I'm sorry I should have understood. Well, anyway, I want
you to know the sand instead of taking out my
what do you call it? When you vacuum. See it's
(46:38):
hard for me to find the word, but that's how
little I So instead of vacuuming up here, I did
push it under the couch and uh yeah, it's under
there if you want to track like literally, no, no, no,
don't get close to it. No, I know, And it's
on me. There's a lot of things off. You're right now.
(47:02):
It's awful. It is so bad. It's literally what stops
me from going to the beach. Just say it and
I like it. I want to love it. I want
to love it. Gun to your head. Pick one sand
or glitter? Oh sand, really, glitter is the most annoying
shit ever. So then there's a tear worse than sand
(47:22):
glitter in terms of sticking around. Yeah. Like, here's the thing.
If you went to the beach and it was glitter
instead of sand, you would never get over that.
Speaker 2 (47:33):
I'm going to tell you this now because by the
time this episode comes out, it will have happened. I
bought some little flakes. It's not glitter, it's not confetti.
I bought little gold silver flakes for tonight's game show
mm hm, for my making entrance. Yes, do you advise
against it?
Speaker 1 (47:48):
No? It might get on people. And here's what I'll say.
Thank you for telling me, thank you for being a
sister and letting me know that there will be glitter about.
It's not quite.
Speaker 2 (47:58):
I bought it at Target. I asked where the confetti was.
The best they could do was this. It's it's bigger
than glitter. It's not little little little particles. It's like
little like this big.
Speaker 1 (48:07):
I trust you. Maintenance at the Bellhouse may not trust
you that. I don't want to.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
I'm already feuding with no One, Greta. I can't feud
with maintenance at the Bell.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
No because at that point it's like a PR crisis.
Then you need to highre crisis management. Then you need
to be fucking studios. Yeah, Disney hired. Let's just say
it out loud. Disney has hired. I think it's like
a three hundred thousand dollars position, and it's like a
crisis management person because they know how badly they're fucking up. Girl.
(48:35):
Just end it and it to end the strike now,
I said, studios, you better give a fair deal. What
if because this episodes are being so publicized, because it's
the greatest.
Speaker 2 (48:47):
Ep of all time, because because of the public feuds.
Because of the public feuds, this is a huge platform
for you. And I think what you just said to
the studios will change things.
Speaker 1 (49:02):
Yeah, and I want them to do something about sand too.
While they're at it. They probably have the means, Hey,
Joe Biden, why is there sand in my apartment? Kamala Kamala?
Can someone turned that up? The sand going away? I mean,
turn up the sand going away? So you know how
one of my new things is TikTok. Yeah, yesterday I
was on like Kamala impersonation TikTok. Oh my god. I
(49:26):
mean do you think the bros broke that open? Yeah?
For sure because the crows are amazing because that girl
is that girl?
Speaker 2 (49:33):
That girl, that girl Comma like the sun rash Tamala impressions.
TikTok is so genius.
Speaker 1 (49:43):
Was that a big song for you? Five? A brown
ass back the sunriss kind of a cunty hook. That
was their antidote to you know, what would you do?
Because what a sad city. I had to come out
with a song that was like, Okay, this is so
laboratory groovy chill song. Oh groovy should bring should you
(50:06):
bring back groovy? Well?
Speaker 2 (50:08):
I've been saying from Girls, groovy lifestyle, my because all
I want is a groovy lifestyle. What my groove life,
Ticky bank rolling your groovy lifestyle, my groovy lifestyle.
Speaker 1 (50:25):
Wow, so good. A great first scene in a pilot.
You always be saying, Matt, I you love that pilot.
I love that. Is it your favorite pilot? It's not
my favorite pilot. I don't know what is though. It's
a hard question.
Speaker 2 (50:38):
I mean, like everyone says, like the Cheers pilot is perfect.
I mean I've seen the Cheer I know, I know
in the modern sense, like what is the best pilot?
Speaker 1 (50:46):
Maybe Girls is up there? Oh, I know what Modern Family,
Modern Family, Oh, Desperad, Housewives, Death, Lastives is a great pilot.
We watched it New Years Oh yeah, and it kind
of didn't feel as good.
Speaker 2 (50:58):
Maybe Greece Anatomy, Gray's Anatomy has a good pilot because oh,
because there's a cute scene between Christina and Meredith at
the end where Christina goes go to bed, you look
like hell, and then Meredith goes, so do you, and
then Christina goes, that's not true.
Speaker 1 (51:17):
That's really good. I love that. I love that. That's
me and you girl.
Speaker 2 (51:27):
We got everything in this episode. We have Nikki, we
have Gray's anatomy, we have industry secret.
Speaker 1 (51:33):
You want to know why it was like this, and
also because we're at home. We're at home, and I
just want to say, we're here in my home here
before me. Yeah, we might have to come back here. Okay, anyway,
are you ready to do your out of think so honey.
I'm ready to do my own and think so honey,
This in that case is Bowen Yang's. I don't think sohanni.
(51:55):
And as time starts now, I don't think so honey.
Three M adhesive or in general, but especially this three
M shit, the kind where you like, if you want
to hang a hook on a wall, that is gonna
ruin your walls, If you need to hide a cord
with those little white tubes, goodbye to your wall, because
guess what You're gonna spend upwards of a million dollars
(52:16):
fixing up your walls if you leave an apartment like
I just did. This shit is too sticky. Goldilocks should
have gone in that house and gone This three step
is too sticky. This painter's tape is not sticky enough.
And that's why we have never found the goldilocks of tape.
Tape is either too much or too little. I need
things held together, but not in a way that's gonna
(52:39):
fucking gorillatriate everything on a surface. Okay, we just pretend
and act like tape is normal. When it's too sticky,
it's not. If it's stick to you, it's on you forever,
and people go to the hospital for this shit on
stick things Now make things not as sticky. And that's
one minute. Do you understand there's a theme we don't
(53:01):
want things to take on us. Get off us, Get off.
It's actually it's actually really culture number two hundred. Get off,
USA Off, Get off us, get off. But on a
human level, there is nothing worse than like stickiness, than humidity,
then things staying on, clinging onto you. I hate it. Yeah,
(53:25):
it's very bad. And I have to say, Okay, I
know we've sort of beat the drum long enough about
our Lexapro hashtag Lexapro journey. But one of the things
that's really tough in the very beginning is the sweating,
the night sweats, because I struggle with that. No, I don't,
and that is sweat being sticky and all over you.
(53:46):
On the show. Now it's over. Now, it's over now
that I've adjusted it. But like that is what like,
I hate waking up and being sweaty. Rather the room
that I'm in be frigid. Sixty eight degrees that's my
preferred temperature for sleeping. Is actually right around the optimal
temperature to sleep. That's what I heard. Where did you
hear that? I think Today's show, Today's show, which I'm
(54:10):
getting back into. I'm slowly. I'm slow.
Speaker 2 (54:13):
Okay, if you want my progress report for a morning show, yes,
I am. On season two, episode four. This is where
moderating the debates is a big a story. But at
this point, Bradley Jackson and Julia Margleiz I forget her
character's name because she is severely underdeveloped, have.
Speaker 1 (54:33):
Hooked up. Yeah, and I will say season one was
like fun pulby campy, not even campy. Now. This that
was the moment when Reese like lunges towards Juliana where
I go. The third graders have arrived.
Speaker 2 (54:50):
Yeah, this was when I finally it all made sense
to me. Yep, the third graders are here. This dialogue
is crazy.
Speaker 1 (55:00):
No, the third graders popped off in the second season,
I've got the third gradest we're writing the first season,
I do want to say I think they were like
auditing the room or something, but tea try to have
your hand and a teacher had to have your hair.
But in the second season of The Morning Show, the
third graders have gone wild and I'm on the paper.
No yeah, and it gets even crazier. Girl, you're going
(55:23):
to when you understand like where it goes in the
last couple episodes. I let's just say this. I am
so excited for the third season. I am over the
moon and I just it can't come soon enough. But
it cannot. I'm not soon enough. I mean, it's truly
a joy to watch. It's a jewel.
Speaker 2 (55:43):
Well again, this show has altered something in me. Where
I used to be, I would find it really hard
to watch things, to sit through things, especially our long
TV no shade. Yes, it was also me being sick.
But now that I'm even out of that fugue, I'm like,
this is with me.
Speaker 1 (56:01):
Well you know why why? Because this is and this
is just the truth. Jennifer Aniston is the most watchable
person in the world period. She is the most watchable
on screen talent. Out there period period in terms.
Speaker 2 (56:18):
Of just like, yep, you are, I agree, I completely
co sign completely God with a Star and even her
scenes were the writing, I'm like, wait, did what did
she just say?
Speaker 1 (56:30):
But it doesn't matter. Aston sells it. Yeah, And here's
what I'll say. It doesn't fucking hurt that Reese is
also there, that Steve Carell is there, that like this,
Karen Pittman that like it's just all a sleigh. But
if we're being one hundred real, why it's Jennifer Aniston
and she should have won an Emmy for that first season,
(56:52):
especially if they were gonna give Zendeiya two. Like, Jennifer
Aniston ate that up. And I say it just because
she has no television peer, you know what I mean,
Like that's just the way it is. I give it
up for First of all, I do think Marketyplace is
doing it consistently eats the cast is so you know
what it reminds me of, honestly, Praise No No, True
(57:14):
Blood true that it's so funny, it was so insane,
but the actors doing it were so good that you
were like, Okay, it's just that that was vampires, so
it could be fucking crazy, whereas this tone of this
show is also fucking crazy, but it's like grounded because
it's a morning show when we recognize it, but it's
somehow spiritually connected. For me, that's so interesting. I can't
(57:37):
tell how aware it is of its own when it
gets cuckoo, of when it gets coo kidded. I don't know, girl,
because some shit happens in the later part of the
season that you're like, no one thinks this is grounded.
Speaker 2 (57:50):
Okay, Okay, I don't quite understand what's going on with
Steve Carell's character in Italy with the Italian woman.
Speaker 1 (57:56):
I think you're gonna see, yeah, and it's been ruined
for you, right, I mean from my recaps on the show.
Speaker 2 (58:02):
Well, does COVID get like brought back to the studio
as like the reporter who went to China?
Speaker 1 (58:07):
Is he bringing back COVID? I am not gonna answer
that question. I'm gonna let the COVID storyline of The
Morning Show Season two just unfold for you. I'm just
gonna let it. I'm just gonna let you experience it
the way God intended, which was naturally and without impediment
of me telling you or reminding you of what actually
happens in this season of TV. And I stress that
(58:29):
it is something I want every reader to be off
every and I rarely give homework.
Speaker 2 (58:34):
No, and if it means anything that I am now
coming in as you know, substitute teacher and saying, this
is your homework.
Speaker 1 (58:42):
This is your homework. We are watching the third season together.
It is our favorite show. Not to scab and promote
a sage. We're allowed to do a podcast about a culture? Yeah, okay,
should we put in there? Matt and Bowen realized this scab.
(59:03):
We're very high. Okay, you give us a goddamn break.
Listen what an episode I mean? This was? Let me
just google, let me just yeah, the last episode of
all time, that's what they're saying. Feels like the Carol
g Of episodes. It's the Carol g Of episode. It
does feel like old school lost culture period. Sitting in
an apartment? What could be better? What sitting in an
(59:31):
apartment could be better? With the culture? Number two? Sitting
in an apartment could be better? With that? We do
end every episode with the song Jeez fairde Heaven on
(59:52):
and on, not too particularly not Jeez the parode Then
Rest in peace. Jimmy Smoke a Jay drink a Mark.
(01:00:14):
Good Night, everybody,
Look mare, Oh, I see you my own look over
there is that culture? Yes, goodness, wow, lost culture, last culture.
Now what are they going to talk about today? That's
what all the readers are saying. Now, what are they
going to talk about today?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Well, I'm genuinely asking this question because we are recording
this on the same week as last week's episode, very near,
very near, and so I do have that, you know,
podcast or anxiety. I think, oh am, I not going
to have anything to talk about with my co host.
But I know that's never a challenge with.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
You have, Ppa. I don't podcast performance anxiety. Hep ah
my god, do I just create We just created a
new contemporary disease mental illness Ppa, Oh my god, Canadian
golden showers. Yes, lover saying Ppa, I'm saying right now,
(00:57):
this is going to be the best Last Cultures out
of all time. Today, Honey, I don't doubt it. I
don't doubt it. Well, there's much to celebrate and remember
and reflect upon. Oh, can we just well, what do
you want to talk about? First? Listen? We can start
on a mournful note. I think we have to start
in a mournful note. Yeah, because we're recording this On Saturday,
September second, last night, a legend passed. Jimmy Buffett has
(01:22):
passed at age seventy six. He was the singer, songwriter, icon, author,
and entrepreneur. Billionaire. He was a genius. He was valued
at one billion dollars. And this is when you go,
maybe not all billionaires. Are not all billionaires. If it's
Rihanna and Jimmy, if it's Rihanna and Jimmy and soon Taylor,
(01:43):
three of the least evil people in the entertainment industry,
those are the three least evil people in the entertainment
They are the kindest, biggest slaves.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Actually, I will say Taylor giving the teamsters bonuses.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
That's good. Are you kidding me? That was huge to
give him a huge bonus. I mean like that's like
everyone on the whole thing got one hundred thousand dollars.
But we digress. Here's the thing we're talking about Jimmy.
Now we're talking about Jimmy and I so the Taylor
Swift of his time in many ways, bitch, did you
know he is? I read his obituary, as many people did.
(02:17):
One of only five or six writers, including Ernest Hemingway
and fucking John Steinbeck to top to be number one
on the bestsellers list for nonfiction and fiction. Yeah, yeah,
I mean he had a real connection to people and
to like creativity, to art. Yeah, and this man Ryan's
(02:37):
flip flop with pop top you never forgot. You never
forgot that blew out my flip flop stepped on a
pop top? What is it? What's the rest? Had a
cruise the way the cruise on back home, a cruise
on back home. Honestly, here's the thing about Jimmy Buffett
who And I was reading about him today too, just briefly,
I felt like I didn't even need to just need
you have the bibliography on him. I needed to. He
(03:00):
is giving jaws like you don't know, Jimmy Offfitt. If
you're not American, I feel that is the America. I want.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
This man who is able to unite people from every
end of life, Yes, make them feel welcome, either in
the music or in the eating establishments, just the lifestyle,
Gulf and Western lifestyle. He created something many special things.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
He as a true artist in that he had a
vision in combining fucking like Calypso country rock that's incredible.
He invented a new way of expressing it. It was
yacht rock, and it was been yacht but it wasn't,
but it was still so signature and to have that
in the music, end in the brand, and therefore in
(03:46):
people's lives. My dad sent me the sweetest message I posted.
I was thinking about him today, Trina. Actually I called
him this morning. It was the first thing I did
when I woke up. I looked at my phone. I
was on a group Texas to Jimmy Buffett and tagged
me and said, Matt, where thinking of your dad? And
I literally called my dad. And I didn't know what
to expect, and I didn't know if I could expect
(04:07):
him to be like emotional or what. But they were
at the beach and they came to the beach to
pour one out for Jimmy. It's just I texted Andy
actually to see how he was doing because they were friends.
And apparently he was really at peace when he went
like apparently he had been sick for some time and
that everything was accepted and you know, everything was good.
(04:30):
And I felt like, yeah, I mean what, that's like
a fitting way for him to go, like truly like
at peace. And also the fact is if he had
been sick for a while and no one knew about it.
I mean, this is someone who's like a cultural icon
and no one knew he had been struggling. In this way,
I think he genuinely had care for his fans up
until the very end. He's like, I don't want them
(04:50):
to know that I'm suffering. I want them to think
it's still a party, you know what I mean. And
even in the way that they disclosed, his manner of
passing was very like the vibes were good, and it's
just so rough because my dad said like he was
the music to my voyage. Oh my god. Yeah, people
(05:11):
have a connection your dad being like the parrot head.
You've seen that room in my old house. I've seen
the room. It is imagine a corner in a basement
at the basement, right, it was like the back den.
The back den. Yeah, that is just airlifted out of
city walk. Yes, it's beautiful. It was. It was a
(05:33):
beautiful room. And but I'm just saying like this, there
were so many parrots in that room. So remember counting them.
I didn't count them. Oh I count there was about
twenty three parrots. Did did you just count the parrots
in Broadway ants or no, I think we did that,
count the parents in Broadways. But in Broadway Ants, which
was my old web series with Doug White with Doug Whydeck,
they did debrief all the shows they saw in that room.
(05:56):
I think we discussed it. Funny. That's so funny.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
No, I'm saying, like he provided an esthetic for so
many people, your dad included obviously. Yeah, it's a lifestyle.
And when you sell people a lifestyle that is like harmless. Yeah,
and like it's about chilling out. It's about chilling out.
Like that is like thank god he like provided that
(06:21):
on such a scale. Yeah, And I don't mean scale
in the business, and I just mean like in terms
of like getting into people's hearts and creating a fantasy
for people that is like really lovely.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I think is beautiful. I mean it really is like this,
Like I think that a lot of people that were
his fans were actually hard working type a people who
just literally wanted a break. And literally he personified what
it meant to take a break, to take a break.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
But see, even even if you're talking about like him
not wanting to worry his fans for any illness because
the party is still going. I mean that is like
a pure commitment to that idea because even he, like
I think like after a certain age, was like, this
isn't what I do anymore necessarily in my own life,
but I will still sing about it. I'm very much
(07:09):
like when he started writing books. I think was when
he was like buckling down and being like I am
just gonna be like pretty like square and not be
like this man. But then I'll dress up on stage
as this guy. M like, that is there's such a
beauty to that too.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
What if today Beyonce at Renaissance Stur does a cover
of cheeseburger. Imagine Beyonce at Renaissance in La in La,
just like so close to her birthday. She's like, we
need to stop the show tonight. We have lost a
legend because you know Beyonce respect of course she does,
(07:44):
and she shut it all down to saying geez burger
in paradise. I would love that. If she is worth
her salt, she will turn to God and she will
say up there in heaven, I see you, Jimmy. Here's
(08:04):
my sunning rendition. She has of cheeseburger and she has
to this man.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Just before the skincarelines and the fucking.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Before my Slabs, there was Margaritaville, And that's a rule
of culture. Number nine before house, I believe your go
to is House Flabs and not fenty or like No,
for me, the number one celebrity brand is House Lab Labs.
Should we do a House Labs episode where we have like,
(08:37):
do we do a video and we have a woman
come in who's like incredible jobs and we just do
a house we should just get rap?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Maybe her name is Stephanie GERMANA. What if Gaga ever
came on the pod? That would be first of all,
I realized that I am going through my life with
Gaga the same way you.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Am going through my life with Yaga, the same way
you did for a long time with Kelly.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Where like I have fear about meeting her, yes, I
completely understand. And if I've ever presented the option where
it's not completely on my own terms, I will decline.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Do you know what I'm saying? And if she were to.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Ever come on this pod, can you even imagine I?
That would be my not to compare it to your
journey or your voyage, but I would not be able
to keep now.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I have such.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Respect for the composure and the professionalism you kept around
her during her episode. It's even on fucking film, like
I would not be able to keep it together.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
But we're going to. I don't know, I'm putting it out.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Anything is possible at this point, really, especially in a
post Kelly landscape on Lost Culturistas.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
But I I just if we committed, I think we
could make a serious case for God. Come on the pod,
we come on, you know what will do? This is
what I want to do. I want to go to
Vegas with you and see her jazz and pian I know,
and do it there?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Did you see she did stupid love jazz rendition and
it sounds dare I say, little monsters just saying it
sounds better the original?
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I mean, why wouldn't it. She's just a constant sleigh.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Constant sight, like the horns come in and it's like Woo's.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
I would love that, do you?
Speaker 2 (10:17):
I mean not that this would have happened because he
was sick and we don't know what he would have
been able to do. You have regrets about not getting
Jimmy on?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh? I mean like that would have been fun. But
I don't. It's a difference. The reason why he's more
significant for me is through my father. It's not for me.
It's just like it will always connect to that joy.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
He's the type of person I'm sure who would not
have minded that like someone's parent of a different generation.
I mean, no way was like their gateway through to even.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
Like the title of his Greatest Hits album is one
of the best greatest Hits titles. It's songs you know
by heart. That's just like straightforward, it's like beautiful, Yeah,
these are songs you know by heart. And guess what
they were not hits. He actually only had any I
always video was like the only like chart come Monday.
And I think Margaritaville probably at some point just because
(11:06):
of the all I want for Christmas is uness of Margaritaville.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Yes, yes, oh my god, inspiration inspiration is struck. The
genius is in the walls. Can I ask did he
invent the phrase it's five o'clock somewhere? Did he invent that?
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Well, that was a song that he did with Kenny Chesney,
but based on the phrase I don't I can't, let's
look it up. I feel who invented? Who coined what
this is? Good? Okay, so you guys, we're here in
the culture lab and we're typing away who coined the phrase?
Speaker 2 (11:35):
It appears like comedian Red Skelton coined I re least
popularized the phrase in nineteen fifty nine.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Oh wait, so this is interesting. You know when you
type something into Google and it fills in Yeah, so
this is what I love when that happened. This is
what happens when you type in who coined the phrase? Okay,
and let's see if you can answer each one, and
it's quiz bowl. Okay, who coined the phrase manifest destiny?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
I think I feel like that is a because in
paintings have manifest destiny, there's like an angel. I feel
like it's either a Christian thing or it's like a
Greek thing.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Why do I feel like it's like Andrew Jackson maybe
who coined the phrase? And now I'm gonna click it.
John John Lewis O'Sullivan eighteen thirteen to eighteen ninety five
American and her they paint Columbia. Yeah, yeah, they paint
like the woman Columbia, right, America. She's like moving across
the island. I think, yes, yes, yes, what it was
(12:27):
was like, it is our destiny to manifest the entirety
of the continent of America. Yeah, totally period period. Okay,
what are you coined the phrase? Oh? My god, this
is our news segment? Who coined the phrase? Who coined
the phrase cold war? Oh? Interesting? These are a little
too historic, don't you think? Do you want to just say,
(12:49):
my guests, Yeah, your.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Guess who coined the phrase cold war? I'm gonna say
that it predates the actual cold warm Hm, let's say
it was I don't fucking know know, Walt Whitman.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
The first use of the term to describe the specific
post war geopolitical confrontation between the Soviet Union and the
United States, came in a speech by Bernard Baruch, an
influential advisor to Democratic presidents, on April sixteenth, nineteen forty seven.
I would have never known. Yep, So this is this
still fun? After one more, we're gonna find out who
(13:28):
coined the phrase rock and roll? Oh I don't pos
I'm sure Alan Freed was his name anyway, anyway, Sorry,
I didn't mean to No, you're right, it's not being fun,
probably like one and a half because I've never heard
of these fucking people I know, But isn't it interesting?
Like we weren't wrong, We just weren't right. We just
weren't right. We sort of knew something. That's actually a
(13:51):
really interesting test of what the fuck you remember from
high school? All the bullshit that we had just said
through Do you remember one? Man? I remember a lot
of maths trig If I put a trigonometry problem in
front of your face right now, what would happen?
Speaker 2 (14:06):
I don't know, but you know what this is what
blows my mind. There are friends of ours who know
this shit because they have to, oh for tutoring. It's
like Josh Sharp knows every fucking.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Yup, he's got to know the periodic table. Charlie Barday
is out here teaching kids the sat right. Yeah, he
a'm getting that wrong. Yep, he has to know the
quadratic that I'm like, thank god, thank god, although I
would have if I needed to. Yes, does that sound weird? Not?
It doesn't sound weird. I was sitting here thinking like
how lost I would be on one of those tests,
(14:40):
like if you put like THET in front of me
right now, which, by the way, I'm sorry to do
this to you. But you do have perfect scores on
both these tests. No Nosa sac SAT. Was you flopped
on SAT?
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Wow, bitch, I got a twenty two hundred out of
twenty four.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
That's slayer. Why would you do I don't want to
do that. Did you see the tellyboard day and Joe
Castel Baker? I want to stay in that house against
(15:22):
speak it.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
That was the charge already house and we got a
little you know, that was when we talked about the
house and quote unquote made fun of it, even though
it did on my knees begging them to forgive us.
They did and ultimately it was fine, but it was
because that house is stunning. I've had rough parties there
one weeks where I was not staying in that house
where it was like every geek when you've ever met,
(15:45):
was like, I mean.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
Yes, but also it's like it's about how you fill
the house yourself. You know what you fill the house?
We'd love.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
That house will always be very special to me. I
have very special memories in that house, and I am sorry.
Sometimes we do this Reader's Keys Publicis finalists and Matt
comes in with one energy, I come in with another.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Today it was the energy was. Matt was like, oh,
we God, we have so much to talk about, and
my energy was we just recorded four days ago. I
know you're so right.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
I wanted to talk about although enjoyment. Although, but I
think although when joined that last week, do you know
what I'm googling?
Speaker 1 (16:20):
What is popular right now? No? No, no, no, no,
let's say no. This is our first pop Crave episode
where we go down Popcrave to eight Popcrave episode. Can
I tell you I have had so much news day
they will win a Pulitzer by the end of this
half decade by twenty twenty five. I mean, forget about CNN,
(16:42):
MSNBC saying Trump was arrested. I found out from Popcrave.
I think every time Trump has been arrested, it's been
pop Crave. They have someone placed everywhere.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Popcrave broke the story of Charlie xcx unfollowing arena and
then tweeting messy Era, and then that caused it's actu
an uproar that Charlie had to put out an extra
like statement about.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Pop Crave is scaring the girl? Wait, what's going on
with that Charlie stuff?
Speaker 2 (17:08):
I don't really know, but then the statement she put
out was basically like, I didn't want to do this,
but after getting off the phone with Rina, I just
think you should all know that this happened over a
personal disagreement.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
And blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
And I'm like, wow, pop Crape is forcing fucking the girls,
forcing the girls to talk, and isn't that huge?
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Okay? Do you want to get tweet by tweet pop Crave? Yes,
Pop Crave, that is so okay.

smashed iPhone? She's a girl with a smash. She goes
Onnatrual with her iPhone. One day on set, someone complimented
her for They're like, oh my god, I kind of

Speaker 2 (18:46):
Camp Rock Too. The Final Jam premiered thirteen years ago.
I was never a camp Rock kid.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
I actually, for some reason, the YouTube wormhole that I've
fallen into is like Disney Kids, and like Disney Kids
when they first appeared on Allen uh huh. And it's
so funny that camp Rock was such a sensation that
Debbie Latta was huge, because it really wasn't that girl
like high school musical, was that girl that was phenomenon?
Camp Rock was not who literally watched Camp Rock? Can
(19:14):
I actually throw that question out there?
Speaker 2 (19:15):
You're gonna get millions of responses. Seriously, we were in
that window where it would not have been cool to
watch it. I think we were like at that age
we're like, oh, you watched like high school musical.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
I remember we were. It worked because I was in
high school. It still hit me so hard.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I think we were like right in college as Camp
Rock YEP, thirteen years ago. So what is that like
twenty ten? So then we were in college, right, we
were like trying to be cool college students in New
York wearing black, smoking cigarette, you know what I mean? Yeah,
So that's no people people fucking worship this shit. Yeah,
they truly love Camp Rock. There's people out there that
(19:50):
truly love it. And I'm really.

Renaissance tour in Los Angeles. Yes, and she followed the
prompt of wearing silver thank you. A lot of U

gonna read the next one, okay. Selena Gomez tells the
Cruise show that she and Carol G have talked about
possibly collaborating together. Carol G, do you have any thoughts
she's a star?
Speaker 1 (21:12):
I actually literally don't know who she is can and
I cannot describe how much I could not pick her
out of a crowd.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Well, don't worry, because the second you see her in
the if you see her in a lineup or in
a crowd, you go, that's a fucking super smar. I'm
googling Carol Ge appearance, Carol Ge, physical appearance, physical appearance.

really interesting when happen. You know what.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
I am committing myself to this fall before Pink Friday too.
Oh by the way that we say, no, I need
to listen to it again. I thought to myself, first,
this doesn't feel right, and then I thought the first
single on Pink Friday was your Love and that was
like way out of left field.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I love that she's doing this me too. Wait, should
we do a live lesson? Is that even allowed? It's allowed.
If we're talking over it, it's allowed. Okay, so we're
gonna talk over it.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
But Matt, I'm committing myself to like literally getting off
book on like the important Nikki shit. I realized, like
I'm not fully off book on like any BD Piggy

you want to know what it's giving everything from the
Pink Friday era in terms of color and in terms
of mood, but kind of bringing it into this fun
new like vaporwere sort of like, there's gonna be huge
hits on this album. Oh Death, I can She's not
(25:21):
gonna fuck this up. She's saying this is going to
live up to Pink Friday. Yeah, it's huge of her
to call it that.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
I just love that it's straight up called Pink Friday too,
Like she wasn't trying to do this like blueprint thing
like like jay Z, like like she did that with
the pink print like literally, but I'm saying this is
a This is like her confidently being like I'm following
up the thing, the.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Iconography through the iconography. Yeah, I love that. Bombs Away,
bombs away, bombs away, bombs Away Now it's it's like
a weirdy breakdown. I love the butterflies. It's honestly taking
something from Mariah. You can't be putting a butterfly in
(26:07):
your video and not be thinking about it, especially a monarchy,
especially this song is about Mariah. I wish I would
have hugged you tighter last time that the last time
I saw you. I bet you. I bet she thinks
about the times when she and Mariah were like friends,
because my face they were getting along. Oh my god,
about my face. The video with the two of them,
(26:28):
like they.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Are smiling, having a good time, like kiking, like Mariah, ooh.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Maybe I pushed you away because I thought that I'd
in that long, long space and then bore you. I
love I love her use of silence in this like
I killed it. That's a huge hit. That's a huge hit.
Last time I saw you, girl, Okay, tell you've been
crying to talk to. First of all, this is a
(27:01):
fun game to play. Readers, finalists, publicist Kties play the game.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
We say one person in the group says, just sings
on a tone girl or that was two notes, but
just it can be girl and and and then see
what the response is from the group.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
It could be where do you think you'll go in?
It could be I could tell you been crying and
needing somebody top two. It could be Girl put your
records on.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Oh wait, stop it all. It's the Girl game. This
is the Girl Game, the Girl. Oh my god. This
is on track to be one of the best Last
Cultural ississ episodes of all time. This is one of
the best Last Culture recessed episodes of all time. And
here we are at halfway. Here, we are at the
halfway point, and we're checking in to say so far,
and we're in the lab. We're actually checking the statistics. Yes,
(27:52):
it is the best episode of Last Culture Recess of
all the time. And that's title of the best Last
Culture Recess episode of all time with Matt and Bowen.
You were about to say something, Girl, you had a
song put your records on. Oh no, what I was
gonna say was we had such a moment with Girl
put your records on. Brian Bailey Ray in Fire Island
(28:14):
like it truly filled the house. And when I say
that is better than you remember it is aged like
a fucking cask of wine. Oh wischris like a fucking
cask that's a real culture. Number sixty three put your
(28:34):
records on has age like a fucking cask. What is
she up to now? Well, she's forty four love in
the prime of her life. She is living in England.
What is she doing now, let's see twenty sixteenth to present.
She's just kind of out there. She's out there, She's
out there. Look.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
I first discovered this woman on an episode of Gray's Anatomy,
on the episode entitled Yesterday, which is the first episode
after the Code Black episodes. The premiere of Eric Dane
as Mark Who Could Forget?
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Who Could Forget?
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Really seem perfectly soundtracked this show music supervised by the
legend Alex Pastavas like a Starbuck and Bailey Ray plays.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
Just stop cos Masma, Oh you need to do her bones? Bones?
Got y? Do you know what I was thinking today,
Like this is the fiftieth and it's like, oh, this
is don't worry.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
But if if this strike goes on till next May,
then there might not be a forty nine, which I
will not come to that.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Although, what's your temperature, Let's take the temperature. I don't
want to just take the temperature.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
Just such a bummer to talk about the strikes. But
there is an emotional turning point potentially now that we're
past Libor Day, because remember it was the vibe early
on where it was like, this will be done by
Labor Day, and they gave me some symbolic and whatever
blah blah blah, like to finish it on Labor Day.
But this is when we all go like, God, damn,
this sucks. Anyway, let's not talk about it anymore.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
You've brought them. I can't. This was this was on
track to be the best Lost Culture episode of all time.
By the way, we're recording in my new apartment in
Long Island City. We didn't give a sense of place
(30:35):
our first Long Island City episode. This is our first
Queen's episode Queens and Queens. I would say that that
would be a good title of now, but the fact
is that this is called the best Lost Culturess episode
of all times because what it is because what we
did a live listen of Nicki min As Wow, and
(30:59):
it's a hook. It's kind of giving Drake, I.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Guess, don't say his name. Drake came on Shuffle and
I thought I used to love this man. Someone literally
on TikTok did a poll of like, say something in
the comments if you're a true blue like Drake Stan,
if you're not a guy, let's say now, I liked
(31:22):
some one or two albums ago where he did like
a house themed one. I used to know every word
to this man's song, like take Care, I know every
word on that album. Mm hmm, fucking I used to
love this man anyway, It's just what a what a
weird tragic thing. And then his whole thing with fucking
Megan is like so fucking shit.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
I can't believe that. I just like god, this man
anyway to in any way not be up in arms
when a woman is shot, like to can you fucking imagine.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
The thing that like all these guys are trying to
put holes in is like, well, she's lying, like did
it happen? I'm like, fuck, like in a court of law,
it got you know, worked out. So whatever that means
to you, I don't know anyway. Should we keep going
on pop Crave or are you done?
Speaker 1 (32:04):
What's happening with Popcrave? Wait? What is happening with Barbie?
What records hasn't broken lately? Barbie is now the highest
grossing movie have twenty twenty three and it's September. Good
luck to any other movie that tries. Barbie has defeated,
Mario Let that sink in Barbie has defeated. It is
(32:27):
the year of women of women. It is the year
of Greta Girlwig. Okay, so get this. One day we
get an email. Here's people that have been pitched for
the podcast Greta Gerwig. We say, uh yeah, never heard back.
Can I just say if you reach out and we
(32:49):
go yeah, yeah, but you got to reach back out.
Can I go public on something? Oh my god, I
think Greta and Noah are mad at me. BF Why
I got cut out of White Noise and you spoke
up about it? I did not pick up about it.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Oh and I was potentially going to have an appearance
in Listen this is gonna be a fucking thing. I
was potentially gonna be in the Barbie movie, as has
been maybe reported on. I think gret is mad at me.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
Why. I don't know why I have not heard from
the woman. Help me reach out Gretta being mad? You
were and she was supposed to come on Lost culturstas
I know, stop being mad? Stop being mad? Oh god,
that has to feel really, really shitty for you, because
it's to run awe to run a fel of either.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
One of that howerd Cup. You hate to run, hate
to run a foul, but to both. For some reason,
I pissed off both of these legends.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
You hate to run. The Oscar winners of Hollywood power
Players one.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
Oscar winner, one Oscar nominee. Neither the neither are the
Oscar winners one as an Oscar. No I believe Noah
has an Oscar for a marriage story. And this is
why it's good that we're in the lab. Noah bomb
back and the answer is, oh, sorry, they neither have
won an Oscar. Oh god, I'm just I'm just digging
(34:17):
myself into a deeper well, aren't I? Because now they're
going to listen to this, and then they're gonna be like,
why did you have to remind us that?
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Why did you have to remind us that we were
only nominated? Why the hell did you add no injury?
But Noah, Greta, you gotta let me know what I did,
because I suffering. I suffer. So I recently watched there
was like something floating around from the dances. Huh oh yeah,
(34:45):
she's such a she's literally number one. I wrote that
I know we really do stand. We stand, we stand,
and uh oh, can I say something I'm pissed off
about in relation to this? So I went on Keep
It and talked about the Barbie movie Yeah, And they
released a social media asset that made it look like
(35:05):
you was like being anti Barbie. And I just want
to say I am extremely pro Barbie. I have seen
it twice. It's one of my favorite movies of the year.
I think everyone in its lade. Did I leave a
little bit confused because I wasn't when I thought I
was going to get yes. But it's fine to process
art over time, and I fucking love it. And I
feel like, well, Lewis was very negative about the movie,
(35:28):
and he kind of swept you into his I felt like,
in order to keep a conversation going, I had to
be like, yeah, I can see why you'd say that
this I could agree with, just to like have a
subduct conversation about Undercurrent. And he was very black and
white about the fact that he hated it. But I
loved it, and it made it seem like I did it,
And I just want to say it really hurt the
(35:50):
heart to see that people didn't understand I only have
love for Barbie when I think you know, page six.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
If you're going to report on this episode, as Bowen
Yang complains about not being in the bar movie, you
have to couple that reporting along with the fact that
Matt Rodgers is pro Barbie and the social media assets
for Headgum painted him in a terrible.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Well, it wasn't Headgun. It was actually crooked crooked. I'm sorry.
We hate to call it out. I'm sorry to We
hate to start hurt you. This episode is a five.
This episode is a battlefield, much like love. Should the
title that be battlefield? No, it has to be the
(36:31):
greatest and the best episode of last culture time. We
just want to remind everyone listening, take this podcast with
the grain of salt. You know what I mean. You
might be reporting, Oh you take this with the big
old rock. Take us with a rock assault, Honey, that's
actually realer coachure number five. Take us with the rock
of salt assault rock. Yeah, what is the best cocktail
(36:55):
you've had recently? God?
Speaker 2 (36:57):
I was my knee jerk response was gonna be a
rocket fuel. But that that was the thing that fucking
I was really I would say I was pretty down
and out before Busted when we were on Fire Island,
because as we mentioned last week, we all ordered rocket fuels.
That was the drink that made Matt say, I like this,
I'm gonna have three of these. And I enjoyed it
(37:19):
as well. As we've said, it's a pinacletta with a
rum floater, not even just any and so it really
knocked me off my feet in the period between Head
of Lettus and Busted and Cherry Grove, and I was
starting to close my eyes and potentially fall asleep, which
(37:41):
really pissed off Matt Rogers.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
Way, did I actually get mad you? I was. You
were very drunk and.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
You were really getting in my face, threatening me. And
I only say this with love to wake up, to
wake up, and I was, I don't remember this at all.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
You were very threatening. Tell me what do an impression
of me to me? If you close your eyes, I
will have words. It was something like that. It was
to that effect, I will have words. I will have
words that sounds like me. So then what we did
was say I have to wake us up. We walked
over to the beach to look at the stars. Oh,
and then we all went as a group and then
totally black this out.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Okay, so this is the funny sort of irony to
this is that Me, Josh, Aaron, Dave, and Matt Whitaker,
we were all like in one group sort of laughing
and enduring the sea. I turn around, you and Patrick
Rodgers are two dark shadows on the ground because you've
what taken a nap? You full on took a nap
on the beach before, and you were so cruel to me,
(38:46):
and you full on fell asleep, and then like the
entire walk over to the ice place, we're like, Patrick
and I just took a nap, and I was like,
you fucking stupid.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
I am so stupid, and I want to apologize right
now wholeheartedly. I should not have acted that way. It
was untoward because you were threading me what. I didn't
do any impressions. You were grabbing me by the arm. No,
I'm sorry. I think when I turn up, I turn up.
I know you do. And when I turn up, I
got to turn down a little first, because guess what,
(39:17):
I don't know if you remember this part, I busted
at the show later on, I was live there. I
know you really slay. I was jumping up around the room.
I was I tipped this person, busted Queen, our greatest
living performer. Yeah, I had to give over one hundred bucks.
I tipped two hundred.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
Yeah, because I wanted to hear Zaturans at least ten times. Yeah,
it's twenty dollars a pot.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
Also, the moment of just putting the twenty in the
bucket and hearing the music come in right away, shouts
to the DJ, because it was just so interactive. It's
an interactive imagine going to Universal Studios and none of
it being on the rails, being a rollercoaster and you
just fly wherever you want to fly.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
Yeah, that's what a busted show is like. Yep, oh
my god, busted did I've been thinking about.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
This joke all week gone.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
So before she performs, she does a lipsic number to
Jesus Take the Wheel. She sits down on her Leopard
Princess out of Nowhere and we again.
Speaker 1 (40:14):
This is before the song. She goes, oh Jesus crass.
The face is what I imagine Carrie Underwood screamed when
she fell down the stairs and broke her face open.
This was in twenty eighteen, Carrie Underwood falling down the
stairs happened like five years ago, and Busted is still
making jokes as her prelude into Jesus take the wheel.
(40:37):
I go. This is a brilliant comedian Byey. I absolutely
could not stand Jesus my face. It came out of nowhere.
You can imagine it might be true, you can't imagine
Jesus Christ. And look, listen, we and all the love.
(41:03):
Can I say, are upset? Carry? I listened to Carrie
today than her song end Up with You, which was
co written by Leland. And I also I want to
say this Carrie Underwood, what a sleigh of a Christmas
special it was on Max Now Max is. She wears
a gorgeous blue shining dress at the end, proving that
(41:23):
Christmas can also be blue. Yes, okay, let that sink in.
Speaker 2 (41:29):
Anyone who eschews the traditional red green of Christmas, you're
a hero. And can I say, including Carrie.
Speaker 1 (41:38):
I don't really do that. I kind of embrace red
and green, not green. That's okay. I don't think green.
I don't think green. No, if you came out in
only green for Christmas, I'd be like, okay, you're giving
Saint Patrick's period, like I can't see you an all
green festive and think Christmas.
Speaker 2 (41:56):
I want someone to come out and give like brown
and red in a way that's like reindeer slash gingerbread.
Speaker 1 (42:07):
Do you know what I mean? I just want someone
to do that. It could be anyone. Well, oh my god,
we just had to hear heat. We had we had
to heat because we share a secret. We share a secret,
and I think I'm ready to tease the secret. Oh
my secret is top braver. You thought that Bowen Yang
(42:30):
and I have collaborated, You ain't seen nothing yet. My god,
Oh my god, this is so you ain't seen nothing yet.
If you think Bowen Yang and I have collaborated, you
nothing yet. I just cracked my knuckles into the mic.
(42:54):
Do you think it's time? I think it's time. This
is a little bit of a shorter episode. No, I
mean because look, here's the thing about I don't think
so honey. It promotes conversations.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
Of course, I do you have something? Yes, okay, this
is Matt Rogers's I don't think so honey. On this
the greatest lost culture ists up of all time, m
h and his time starts now.
Speaker 1 (43:15):
I don't think so honey. Sand Currently in my apartment, No,
there is sand, and guess what. We're actually miles and
miles away from the beach. But it doesn't matter because
of the way sand stays with you when you interact
with it. I have brought it home with me. I
have to say. One of the low points I don't
think so honey, moment of myself and how I felt
about myself was when Bowen Yang we were sharing around
(43:36):
and he was trying to unpack and he said, there
is sand everywhere? Was this? He said, what is this?
And he said this is sand? And he was getting
so worked up, and I was like, this is my
fault because I know that my weakness is sand and
sand control. I don't have any sand control. Whenever I
(43:57):
go to the beach and I interact with the sand,
fifty it is up in everywhere. It is in my shoes,
it is in the towel. I don't interact well, I
guess with an outdoor shower, I really should be utilizing
the facilities, but I don't.
Speaker 2 (44:12):
I don't think so honey, sand because you follow me
and that's one minute, it follows and this is I
just need to give my Raschaman version of.
Speaker 1 (44:21):
Polease And I'm so happy you finally get into this
because you guys, there was actually a dearth of conflict,
but there was a sand moment. Yeah, so this is
what happened. This is how I remember.
Speaker 2 (44:31):
We were packing. This is ramon, did you say unpacking
your packing? We were packing, packing out and then I
lift up shirt or something.
Speaker 1 (44:41):
Yeah, there's like a big This is what like was
peculiar to me. It was a big sort of like
consolidated path of sand. Yeah, like amount of sand, which
makes me think, did you like sweep it there? I'll
tell you what I think happened, and I can only
this is conjecture. Okay, I think think what happened was
there was a fuck ton of sand in my Converse sneaker,
(45:04):
and when I took my shoe and dump it out,
all came out and sort of like dumped out. I
can tell you it was not purposeful. Okay, But was
it what I think happened? Yeah? I don't see.
Speaker 2 (45:16):
And the only reason I am like questioning it, or
that I was questioning it, thank you for telling me,
is because I'm like, Matt wouldn't do that. No, Matt
would not purposefully do that.
Speaker 1 (45:24):
I don't think that that is something a normal person
would do, right, like just dumped out your sandy shoe
in your bedroom, and I don't I hope you don't
think that. I suspect that. No. But what I do
think and what I intuited from your reaction was you
were thinking in your head one word careless, no, careless.
This is again, Rachmon. This is what I remember. I
(45:46):
see the sand, I go, what is this? Oh my god,
what is that? And this is how I remember Russo moan.
You said that's not mine. I was so fun. This
(46:06):
was like during the day. But we were drinking.
Speaker 2 (46:08):
No, we were drinking, and so then you're good, that's
not mine, and I go, well, it's not mine, and
then you were like double down and like made me
think that I did.
Speaker 1 (46:17):
No, Okay, I think, can I tell you. I think
what was happening was I thought it was obviously me
and I was doing a bit like nope, and I
thought you understood. Sometimes I guess I just think you understand.
I'm sorry I should have understood. Well, anyway, I want
you to know the sand instead of taking out my
what do you call it? When you vacuum. See it's
(46:38):
hard for me to find the word, but that's how
little I So instead of vacuuming up here, I did
push it under the couch and uh yeah, it's under
there if you want to track like literally, no, no, no,
don't get close to it. No, I know, And it's
on me. There's a lot of things off. You're right now.
(47:02):
It's awful. It is so bad. It's literally what stops
me from going to the beach. Just say it and
I like it. I want to love it. I want
to love it. Gun to your head. Pick one sand
or glitter? Oh sand, really, glitter is the most annoying
shit ever. So then there's a tear worse than sand
(47:22):
glitter in terms of sticking around. Yeah. Like, here's the thing.
If you went to the beach and it was glitter
instead of sand, you would never get over that.
Speaker 2 (47:33):
I'm going to tell you this now because by the
time this episode comes out, it will have happened. I
bought some little flakes. It's not glitter, it's not confetti.
I bought little gold silver flakes for tonight's game show
mm hm, for my making entrance. Yes, do you advise
against it?
Speaker 1 (47:48):
No? It might get on people. And here's what I'll say.
Thank you for telling me, thank you for being a
sister and letting me know that there will be glitter about.
It's not quite.
Speaker 2 (47:58):
I bought it at Target. I asked where the confetti was.
The best they could do was this. It's it's bigger
than glitter. It's not little little little particles. It's like
little like this big.
Speaker 1 (48:07):
I trust you. Maintenance at the Bellhouse may not trust
you that. I don't want to.
Speaker 2 (48:11):
I'm already feuding with no One, Greta. I can't feud
with maintenance at the Bell.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
No because at that point it's like a PR crisis.
Then you need to highre crisis management. Then you need
to be fucking studios. Yeah, Disney hired. Let's just say
it out loud. Disney has hired. I think it's like
a three hundred thousand dollars position, and it's like a
crisis management person because they know how badly they're fucking up. Girl.
(48:35):
Just end it and it to end the strike now,
I said, studios, you better give a fair deal. What
if because this episodes are being so publicized, because it's
the greatest.
Speaker 2 (48:47):
Ep of all time, because because of the public feuds.
Because of the public feuds, this is a huge platform
for you. And I think what you just said to
the studios will change things.
Speaker 1 (49:02):
Yeah, and I want them to do something about sand too.
While they're at it. They probably have the means, Hey,
Joe Biden, why is there sand in my apartment? Kamala Kamala?
Can someone turned that up? The sand going away? I mean,
turn up the sand going away? So you know how
one of my new things is TikTok. Yeah, yesterday I
was on like Kamala impersonation TikTok. Oh my god. I
(49:26):
mean do you think the bros broke that open? Yeah?
For sure because the crows are amazing because that girl
is that girl?
Speaker 2 (49:33):
That girl, that girl Comma like the sun rash Tamala impressions.
TikTok is so genius.
Speaker 1 (49:43):
Was that a big song for you? Five? A brown
ass back the sunriss kind of a cunty hook. That
was their antidote to you know, what would you do?
Because what a sad city. I had to come out
with a song that was like, Okay, this is so
laboratory groovy chill song. Oh groovy should bring should you
(50:06):
bring back groovy? Well?
Speaker 2 (50:08):
I've been saying from Girls, groovy lifestyle, my because all
I want is a groovy lifestyle. What my groove life,
Ticky bank rolling your groovy lifestyle, my groovy lifestyle.
Speaker 1 (50:25):
Wow, so good. A great first scene in a pilot.
You always be saying, Matt, I you love that pilot.
I love that. Is it your favorite pilot? It's not
my favorite pilot. I don't know what is though. It's
a hard question.
Speaker 2 (50:38):
I mean, like everyone says, like the Cheers pilot is perfect.
I mean I've seen the Cheer I know, I know
in the modern sense, like what is the best pilot?
Speaker 1 (50:46):
Maybe Girls is up there? Oh, I know what Modern Family,
Modern Family, Oh, Desperad, Housewives, Death, Lastives is a great pilot.
We watched it New Years Oh yeah, and it kind
of didn't feel as good.
Speaker 2 (50:58):
Maybe Greece Anatomy, Gray's Anatomy has a good pilot because oh,
because there's a cute scene between Christina and Meredith at
the end where Christina goes go to bed, you look
like hell, and then Meredith goes, so do you, and
then Christina goes, that's not true.
Speaker 1 (51:17):
That's really good. I love that. I love that. That's
me and you girl.
Speaker 2 (51:27):
We got everything in this episode. We have Nikki, we
have Gray's anatomy, we have industry secret.
Speaker 1 (51:33):
You want to know why it was like this, and
also because we're at home. We're at home, and I
just want to say, we're here in my home here
before me. Yeah, we might have to come back here. Okay, anyway,
are you ready to do your out of think so honey.
I'm ready to do my own and think so honey,
This in that case is Bowen Yang's. I don't think sohanni.
(51:55):
And as time starts now, I don't think so honey.
Three M adhesive or in general, but especially this three
M shit, the kind where you like, if you want
to hang a hook on a wall, that is gonna
ruin your walls, If you need to hide a cord
with those little white tubes, goodbye to your wall, because
guess what You're gonna spend upwards of a million dollars
(52:16):
fixing up your walls if you leave an apartment like
I just did. This shit is too sticky. Goldilocks should
have gone in that house and gone This three step
is too sticky. This painter's tape is not sticky enough.
And that's why we have never found the goldilocks of tape.
Tape is either too much or too little. I need
things held together, but not in a way that's gonna
(52:39):
fucking gorillatriate everything on a surface. Okay, we just pretend
and act like tape is normal. When it's too sticky,
it's not. If it's stick to you, it's on you forever,
and people go to the hospital for this shit on
stick things Now make things not as sticky. And that's
one minute. Do you understand there's a theme we don't
(53:01):
want things to take on us. Get off us, Get off.
It's actually it's actually really culture number two hundred. Get off,
USA Off, Get off us, get off. But on a
human level, there is nothing worse than like stickiness, than humidity,
then things staying on, clinging onto you. I hate it. Yeah,
(53:25):
it's very bad. And I have to say, Okay, I
know we've sort of beat the drum long enough about
our Lexapro hashtag Lexapro journey. But one of the things
that's really tough in the very beginning is the sweating,
the night sweats, because I struggle with that. No, I don't,
and that is sweat being sticky and all over you.
(53:46):
On the show. Now it's over. Now, it's over now
that I've adjusted it. But like that is what like,
I hate waking up and being sweaty. Rather the room
that I'm in be frigid. Sixty eight degrees that's my
preferred temperature for sleeping. Is actually right around the optimal
temperature to sleep. That's what I heard. Where did you
hear that? I think Today's show, Today's show, which I'm
(54:10):
getting back into. I'm slowly. I'm slow.
Speaker 2 (54:13):
Okay, if you want my progress report for a morning show, yes,
I am. On season two, episode four. This is where
moderating the debates is a big a story. But at
this point, Bradley Jackson and Julia Margleiz I forget her
character's name because she is severely underdeveloped, have.
Speaker 1 (54:33):
Hooked up. Yeah, and I will say season one was
like fun pulby campy, not even campy. Now. This that
was the moment when Reese like lunges towards Juliana where
I go. The third graders have arrived.
Speaker 2 (54:50):
Yeah, this was when I finally it all made sense
to me. Yep, the third graders are here. This dialogue
is crazy.
Speaker 1 (55:00):
No, the third graders popped off in the second season,
I've got the third gradest we're writing the first season,
I do want to say I think they were like
auditing the room or something, but tea try to have
your hand and a teacher had to have your hair.
But in the second season of The Morning Show, the
third graders have gone wild and I'm on the paper.
No yeah, and it gets even crazier. Girl, you're going
(55:23):
to when you understand like where it goes in the
last couple episodes. I let's just say this. I am
so excited for the third season. I am over the
moon and I just it can't come soon enough. But
it cannot. I'm not soon enough. I mean, it's truly
a joy to watch. It's a jewel.
Speaker 2 (55:43):
Well again, this show has altered something in me. Where
I used to be, I would find it really hard
to watch things, to sit through things, especially our long
TV no shade. Yes, it was also me being sick.
But now that I'm even out of that fugue, I'm like,
this is with me.
Speaker 1 (56:01):
Well you know why why? Because this is and this
is just the truth. Jennifer Aniston is the most watchable
person in the world period. She is the most watchable
on screen talent. Out there period period in terms.
Speaker 2 (56:18):
Of just like, yep, you are, I agree, I completely
co sign completely God with a Star and even her
scenes were the writing, I'm like, wait, did what did
she just say?
Speaker 1 (56:30):
But it doesn't matter. Aston sells it. Yeah, And here's
what I'll say. It doesn't fucking hurt that Reese is
also there, that Steve Carell is there, that like this,
Karen Pittman that like it's just all a sleigh. But
if we're being one hundred real, why it's Jennifer Aniston
and she should have won an Emmy for that first season,
(56:52):
especially if they were gonna give Zendeiya two. Like, Jennifer
Aniston ate that up. And I say it just because
she has no television peer, you know what I mean,
Like that's just the way it is. I give it
up for First of all, I do think Marketyplace is
doing it consistently eats the cast is so you know
what it reminds me of, honestly, Praise No No, True
(57:14):
Blood true that it's so funny, it was so insane,
but the actors doing it were so good that you
were like, Okay, it's just that that was vampires, so
it could be fucking crazy, whereas this tone of this
show is also fucking crazy, but it's like grounded because
it's a morning show when we recognize it, but it's
somehow spiritually connected. For me, that's so interesting. I can't
(57:37):
tell how aware it is of its own when it
gets cuckoo, of when it gets coo kidded. I don't know, girl,
because some shit happens in the later part of the
season that you're like, no one thinks this is grounded.
Speaker 2 (57:50):
Okay, Okay, I don't quite understand what's going on with
Steve Carell's character in Italy with the Italian woman.
Speaker 1 (57:56):
I think you're gonna see, yeah, and it's been ruined
for you, right, I mean from my recaps on the show.
Speaker 2 (58:02):
Well, does COVID get like brought back to the studio
as like the reporter who went to China?
Speaker 1 (58:07):
Is he bringing back COVID? I am not gonna answer
that question. I'm gonna let the COVID storyline of The
Morning Show Season two just unfold for you. I'm just
gonna let it. I'm just gonna let you experience it
the way God intended, which was naturally and without impediment
of me telling you or reminding you of what actually
happens in this season of TV. And I stress that
(58:29):
it is something I want every reader to be off
every and I rarely give homework.
Speaker 2 (58:34):
No, and if it means anything that I am now
coming in as you know, substitute teacher and saying, this
is your homework.
Speaker 1 (58:42):
This is your homework. We are watching the third season together.
It is our favorite show. Not to scab and promote
a sage. We're allowed to do a podcast about a culture? Yeah, okay,
should we put in there? Matt and Bowen realized this scab.
(59:03):
We're very high. Okay, you give us a goddamn break.
Listen what an episode I mean? This was? Let me
just google, let me just yeah, the last episode of
all time, that's what they're saying. Feels like the Carol
g Of episodes. It's the Carol g Of episode. It
does feel like old school lost culture period. Sitting in
an apartment? What could be better? What sitting in an
(59:31):
apartment could be better? With the culture? Number two? Sitting
in an apartment could be better? With that? We do
end every episode with the song Jeez fairde Heaven on
(59:52):
and on, not too particularly not Jeez the parode Then
Rest in peace. Jimmy Smoke a Jay drink a Mark.
(01:00:14):
