Speaker 1 (00:28):
Round Welcome to like a Virgin the And just like
that recap series where we sign Michael Patrick King's death warrant,
(00:48):
I'm Rose dam you and I'm.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Fran Dorato, I will say I think something that I
figured out about myself and how I'm consuming the show
is there's kind of a dif. There's like two different
reactions that I can have to literally anything that happened
on and just like that, either I am lolling because
I'm earnestly entertained and engaged by the thing that is happening,
which just happened with a lot of like Charlotte moments
in the show. The show obviously still has a lot
(01:12):
of really good one laners and moments where I'm like, haha,
that's funny, and then we have the hysterical and loudest
laughter at what are some of the worst things I've
ever heard on the screenwriting level, And one of them
this episode was Aiden saying well he had psilocybin in
(01:34):
his system.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Oh god, where could a fourteen year old even get
magic mushrooms? Like literally probably from someone younger than him,
like and who calls them magic mushrooms?
Speaker 2 (01:52):
And the fact that like I just have to say
about this moment so maddening and and shows the ass,
shows the ass of the writers on this show under
like the fact that psilocybin, when it was in his
system introduced on the plot level as something that is
(02:14):
heightening the stakes of Aiden's relationship to his kids and
whether or not he's going to like stay with carry whatever.
It's like, Oh, he had mushrooms in a system. Mushrooms
psilocybin something that has been like widely approved by the
FDA and doctor is something that literally is less dangerous
than a lot of the other drugs and things that
(02:34):
like they do on this show and that kids can do.
It is like far and beyond one of like it
was so it was just hilarious to me. I was
like the fact that the writers are like, Oh, what's
a crazy drug psilocydo?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Why wasn't he doing like black tar heroin? Yeah, why
wasn't doing meth? Honestly, Like literally it could have just
been like it could have just been coke, like could yeah.
They were like, oh drank He drank a beer and
was micro saying like oh it's it's it's like Evan
Rachel Wood and thirteen. We gotta get this kid under control.
(03:10):
You have no bra, no panties.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
He drank some beer, pop some psilocybin gummies like at
a point zero one like milligram level, and therefre was
in a system. Sorry, hate to break it to you.
People are drinking a few beers and micro dosing mushrooms
and operating heavy machinery every day, like.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Every day heavy machinery like this, dick.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
It's just hilarious, Like sorry, Like honestly, people like producers
like engineers, scientists, doctors, working professionals, people who have nine
to five's are all of them are drinking a beer
and and taking a psilocybin gummy and still doing exactly
what they need to do that day.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
It is, Brad, let's let's slow down.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Bit.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
You're like, you're like, so, what of the bus drivers
like slammed a couple of white claws like whatever, But
that is no girl.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
But I'm if the bus driver had two beers and
also had a psilocybin. Gummy the bus still do his
job like fully, but.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
We don't have to say it's one thing, it's one thing.
There's these are two different things. Like it's okay for
a fourteen year old to get a little crunk on
the weekend, it's not necessarily okay for like anyone in
the world to be wasted while they're doing their jobs. Okay,
let's well, I'm obviously it was implied, I am obviously
(04:39):
being facetious.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
But it's just like it is just like it's kind
of like the sorry, I didn't even ask you if
it's okay to call you an envy person. It's like
it's like, girl, like, these are not things. It's just
like another I'm haunted by.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
It's just another thing we're really mad about that.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Girl, Like you do not know anything about people under
the age of forty five, and that is kinds of
writing about these people. Anyways. I just I lost my
shit when he said, yeah, just a little Simon in
his system. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
So I'm sure we could rant forever about the different
things in this episode that we hated, but I do
I know we're pretty free for among these recaps. But like,
just like to introduce a wee bit of structure, like,
how did you feel generally about this finale?
Speaker 2 (05:33):
I felt, because we're using I feel statements, I felt like,
as I said earlier, there was nothing really surprising about
the finale. I obviously thoroughly enjoyed the Samantha moments. I
also thought that the final scene of the actual show,
which is her and Seema on a beach in Greece
(05:55):
being like, who cares if our men ever come back
to us? They're like, you know what I mean? That
is a wonderful finale moment. Like I liked that as
a polish, as a polishing off to the to the season.
I thought it was so true to the spirit of
Sex and the City. But when I said earlier, very
(06:17):
flagrantly that Sex and the City two is better than
all of it jets like that, I really do mean it.
Like there's just nothing whack, Like there's nothing off the rocker,
there's nothing crazy, there's nothing surprising, there's nothing deranged. There's
nothing in this show that has like that's that has teeth,
And I think that I'm frustrated by that over and
(06:38):
over again. What about you, how psychotic are you feeling
after watching the finale.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Well, I mean that's a loaded question. I literally started
prose that yesterday. I will say, the most shocking thing
in this episode, even more so than Annabel Bronstein and
the other thing that made me scream was in carrying
aid and sex scene. At the end, Carrie had sex
without a bra on which she's never done. That was
(07:04):
literally in Sarah Jessica Parker's contract for the original run
of Sex in the City, and we saw Sarah Jessica
Parker's side boob. If you want to hear all of
