Speaker 1 (00:07):
It rings from the voices. Two guys, we really are
just two voices at the end of all this you
know about.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
I mean, and we're lucky to have a voice in
so many ways. Would you say yes?
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Once you learn to use yours and that question can
be whatever it means to you.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
You know, I had good teachers. I had a good
choir teacher told me you're a baritone. I said, really,
this voice, this voice is a baritone.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
You are one of the best baritones of our time.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Well, I might have dropped a couple octaves.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
It happens. I'm life worn, road hard, put away wet
by this thing we call life.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
By this thing we call life.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
You know.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
I feel like that's the grectly Gainus biopic title right there.
Road hard, put.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Away, hard, and put away wet by this thing called life.
I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
We're still pining after Greg luganis from our first discussion
of him.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Honey, when someone becomes a Google search with their name
and the word shirtless, or their name and the word hot,
or their name and the word speedo or their name
and the word fill in thirsty blank, that's just now
your computer knows okay, and your computer talks to your phone,
which talks to you know, the cosmos.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
The cosmos, you know what. I'm terrified we'll make its
way out there, and so I'm just going to come
out ahead of it.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
What are you so afraid of?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
So around the same time as Greg Lugina's Shirtless in
My Youth, I was also discovering the website Broadway dot com,
and on Broadway dot Com you could learn more about
the shows that were on in and off Broadway, including
the show Naked Boy Singing.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Can I say it's one of the great sites if
you want to know what's on Broadway right now or
even coming up down the pike. Broadway dot Com discover
it now. I know Bowen discovered at a young formative age. Yeah,
but log on, but continue, log on, go off.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Add to car, I discovered Naked Boy Singing, the classic
off Broadway review that features you guessed it, Naked Boy Singing.
And some of these boys were and still are quite
titillating for a boy of pubescent age and post you know.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
What, you certainly post and I'm going to reveal something
in a sec But you wouldn't book that job if
you weren't going to get up there and look delightful
singing in the nude. I when I was in college,
dated one of the naked boys singing, Oh my God,
very briefly, and I was like, I really want to
(02:44):
come see your show. He was mortified. He was like,
absolutely not. You may not tell him. He's like, it's
not He's like, it's not naked boy singing in like
a sexy way or the way I want you to
see me naked. It's goofy and silly and a.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Little a little corny. And then the way that we love, well,
it's foppish, it's popish. And I don't think he wanted
me to see him in the poppish ways, but I said, no,
I think that'll be good.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
That'll be good. But I never did see him in
the show, and I never did see him naked.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Well, that first part is going to say, good for
you for respecting boundaries. That second part I go, well,
that's a shame. If you wanted to see him naked.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I know, and I never did. But basically, when I
talk about adversity, bo just to bring it back to
Paris and we got to be sh Carrie Richardson has
solidified her spot.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
It's a dream deferred, but it tastes just as sweet.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
My god, you are one of the most beautiful speakers
I learned.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Geez my voice. Thank you, choir, thank you all statements, choir.
Thank you. Because Bowen Yang always had the tambour, you
didn't always have the words. Thank you, teachers, t thank
you teachers. Let's celebrate and coaches. Let's celebrate Shakii Richardson,
(04:08):
her coaches, her teachers. She is the clear favorite for
the women's one hundred two in the gold. We are
so thrilled for Shakri Legend.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
We love you, a world leader in this event. Ten
point seventy one seconds literally ten seconds, literally quite literally.
You say I'll be there in ten seconds, and everyone
always sort of tosses that off as meaning I'll be
literally right there. She was one spot in the track
to the next in ten seconds.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
If you say I'll be there in ten seconds, your
name better be shad Carry Richardson, because otherwise you're a liar.
And I don't want to make a liar out of you.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
No, no, And this is what we were saying about
it being down to the milliseconds because it feels commanding.
I mean like she is the front runner, but Melissa
Jefferson also clinched her place in Paris, taking second place
with ten point eight seconds, as did twenty Sha Terry,
who held on for a third ten point eight nine.
(05:08):
So let's just say something right now. All these girls
will be there in ten seconds.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
If they say they will be there in ten seconds,
within oh point one eight seconds of each other. It
is a photo finish, as we call it in the biz.
It is a dead heat.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
It is a dead heat across the board, across the board.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
These girls are touching the line at around the same time.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
At right around the same time. Do you think there
is a sisterhood amongst them?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
I think Tanisha and Melissa and Sha Carrie go out
for drinks and they go, we need a fourth. We
need to complete the Sex and the City quadrillo quartel.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
My god, oh my god, they really do they need
a fourth? They need a fourth so rough to be
like in a four and know that only three of
you can go on, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Like ough, you need them to clink a Cosmo glassgow.
Why do we stop drinking these? You need a fourth
one to go because everyone else started?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
And can I say you delivered that in a way
that Candace Bushnell could never because she's behind the scenes.
But my girl is a huge star, and he took
those lines written by an iconic woman and delivered by
iconic women. I have to say, who do you think
would win in one hundred meter race, Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte
(06:31):
or the iconic Samantha.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
I think the easy answer is Miranda, But I think
Charlotte comes in out of nowhere.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
I think Charlotte is so prepared. I think Charlotte is
going to be She also was always on her exercise game.
When she's always walking around the city, She's always moving.
She's a cardio queen like and they build that into
the show. It's not explicit, but she is a queen.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
But Charlotte's sex scenes were always the most aerobic. Everyone's like, oh,
it's Samantha was the big fluozy or whatever. But Charlotte
can put it down.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Yeah. I think that it's going to be between her
and Samantha, because Samantha, you know, she's very limber, like
she keeps herself. I think Samantha keeps it squeaky. To
put it quitely, and to quote the legend Ari she's.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Been drinking coffee and she keeps it squeaky. She's been
eating healthy. I feel like she you know, she has
a very high intensity job. She's a big publicist. She's
drinking water, she's staying stretched. She lives such a physical,
kernal life that I think she's going to go for
the gold in a major way. Mmm. I just do
(07:51):
we ever talk about this not to reference our other podcasts?
What Samantha's a publicist, Yeah, Charlotte's Katy, Miranda the reader,
And I guess Carrie is a finalists? Well, canst and
then carry rand?
Speaker 1 (08:07):
I think I think Carrie is a finalist because we
have to file into the different categories. But I will
say this in this context, Carrie Bradshaw is gonna be
fourth place in the race, and she's not going to
qualify for the Paris Olympics, which first of all.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
She doesn't make her literally doesn't make her finalist.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
She's not a finalist in this Regardo. So I think
we know she wouldn't really want to go back to Paris.
Probably would be very triggering if you watched the last season.
But I do want to say her arches are destroyed.
The Manolo Blaniks have destroyed her feet, and Carrie Richardson,
I bet she has gorgeous arches such that would carry
her over the finish line and into the gold medal position,
hopefully in the Paris Games. But Carrie's arches are destroyed.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
So sorry, Carrie, you will not be going to Paris.
You will always be known like Lauren Conrad, as the
girl who didn't go to Paris, but you did. You
actually did in the end.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
And I think that Miranda would throw.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Diss Miranda would be discussed. She would want to harken
back to antiquity.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yes, and I'm happy that you made it about that
and not about the obvious lesbian thing, because there is
obviously an obvious lesbian thing.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
To say, lesbian's played Frisbee.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
I certainly think that they are more shot put discus people.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Than Frisbye is for everybody.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
I don't know. I don't mean to center any sexual
orientation around these events. I guess as a former track
athlete who ran a mile in four minutes and thirty
six seconds at my best at age fifteen, I just
kind of the girls I knew, like, let's just say,
in the future, they would come out. They would come
out of the closet as LGBTQ plus the shot putters
(09:41):
and the disc throwers.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
I want to first of all, that is huge insight.
Thank you for educating me.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
I'm just trying to be anthropological about this.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
And you are and you always have been. Thank you
speaking which I want to preview something I want to
bring to our other podcast, Hospitalistists, but I want to
sort of like test out here.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Do I know about it?
Speaker 2 (10:02):
No? Oh, And I've actually been waiting for the right mind.
Went to share this with you.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
We're working it out on the remix.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
It's working out on the remix. I am really getting
a little sick of watching everybody, including queer people, stumble
on the letters of LGBTQ plus. It just makes everybody uncomfortable,
like we all kind of short circuit. We're just it's
like it's like, really, those are letters that are all
(10:28):
very tough on the the addiction, the elocution. It's hard
to really like blow past it, right, yes, especially if
you're like kind of talking talking talking, your words permitted
are set, and then it slows you down. That bottle
next to you was when you say the word, When
you say LGBTQ plus. I want us to create a
(10:50):
new word Lygibatique legibautique. Thank you for this already. I
want you to know my immediate instinct is to accept
it with arms wide open into my life and the
greater consciousness.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
That is my immediate response.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
And as a French sounding word, I think Paris. I
think the Olympics is a great place to debut it
for the culture Legiabetique.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Batique. The Legia Batique community is back now with this,
we are so back. I have to tell you. I
can see luminaries saying this word. I can see Chloe
Sevani saying, are we not luminaries ourselves? Well, first of all,
I just want to say the fact that you, with
that baritone and this background and this training, the fact
(11:37):
that you were the one to bring this forward, I
think means something. And I think leisure Bautique, that's certainly
the community I'm a part of.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I'm Elizabetique.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Down is shau Carrie part of the Elizabetique.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I think so. Greg Lugainis was one of the first
Eligabatique icons at the Olympics who was out Shakarrie Richardson legabetique, legend.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Elizabet legend. Queer woman Shaky Richardson is now fastest woman
in the world. She's the fastest elizap batique individual on
planet Earth.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
That's amazing.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
It's raining greatness. I have to say that with my
full chest.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Are so here to say it is raining greatness. I
don't even care that this is for everyone.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
It's four gays.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Now, it's four gays. It's for legitbatiques, dead ass. Do
you think legibatique has legs.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
One hundred percent? I want you to know I feel
not only excited about it, but inspired by it.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Please spell it well.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
First of all, I think if anyone sees imprint on
paper on screen the letters LGBTQ plus, you can read
that as legibatique. Yes, but if you want to like
create a distinct word for it, you know, because for
linguistic reasons, the word represents the concept. And so L
E G E b A t i q you e.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
You threw an a in there that I did not expect,
but very queer leisure bautique. For some reason, I was
seeing L E G E B E t i q
u E leisabatique. But it's eat to me because I'm
not the creator. You threw the first brick, I did,
you laid the first letters.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Thank you? Can I say this The bricks were already there,
the letters. I just look the more I put the
mortar around the bricks.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I'm always so proud of you, the way that you
carry the legacy of our ancestors forward. But when you
said Lejah Batique, and I want you to hear this,
you really did something there. And to be told that
by another game personally that you really did something there.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Oh my god, this is one of this is I
this is one of the biggest honors of my life
to hear you.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Say that you There should be an award for when
someone really does something there, like you remember when you
won the Human Rights Campaign Award for visibility. I do
because I gave the speech. We need to go back
in time to make it that this year someone really
did something there. About the Cultural Awards next year, we
have to have this is the award for someone that
really did something that wins.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Shakirie. Oh I got Cari, please come to the Culture Awards. Okay,
we are getting so off track.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
We got to bring it back to Paris. Today we're
here to talk about basically if you thought we've even
breached the surface of the athletes that we can look
(14:38):
forward to seeing. Like I mean, we're popping off about
Shakarry because there's big news like she is a qualifier,
but there are so many more top athletes to talk about.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
And this is what we're doing today on this episode
of Two Guys, Five Rings. We got to bring it
back to Paris. There are some stars in the making,
if not already stars is born out of the dust
and space.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
I want to talk about our bee boy and b
girl legends. Yep, Victor Montalvo and Sonny Choi, who is
the coolest girl.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
In the world confirmed in a first hand type of way.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
From you confirmed cool girl lives for sure.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Talk to us about Victor Montalvo, known as bee Boy
Victor and Sonny Choi, who is the legend you've met?
What are they going to bring to breaking an Olympic sport.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Victor is the first American ever to qualify for the
Olympics and breaking. He's the favorite to win the gold
medal in the Olympic debut of men's breaking. I think
this man is gonna walk home with a heavy neck.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
B boy.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Victor got into the sport through his father, Victor. I
think we have a junior here.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
I think we've got a junior here.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
I think we got a junior here. And uncle Hector Bermudez,
his twin brother, father's twin brother. Ooh, if I had
a twin uncle, if my dad had a twin, I'd say,
hold on now, now, which one.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Of you is? Which one are you? Now? Are you
dad of your uncle? Because let me tell you something
Todd out here too, tell.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
And they and so these are both be boy legends
from Mexico. They discovered breaking through a friend's cousin homemade
Breaking documentary, which they watched on VCR. Here we go, Matt,
you certainly had a VCR and you could have had
the same gateway to breaking as Victor and Hector and
Victor Junior. But that's not how my life panned out.
And that's okay, that's okay. Victor said his father was
(16:38):
the quote only one who truly believed in him, And
we just want to stay here and now on two guys,
five rings. That is no longer true.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Now we believe in you too. We are your father
now It's like from the movie Precious when Paula Patton,
the teacher says you, that's us. That is so us
coded towards we.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Are Paula Patten and we are Mariah Carey.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
I mean, you know who believes in sunny CHOI me
Wharton School.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Wharton. Oh my god, did.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
You know that sunny CHOI graduated with a Bachelor of
Science in marketing in twenty eleven from Penn's Wharton School.
That is intense.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
For her to get a Bachelor of Science in marketing
is like me getting And this is actually what happened.
I have a Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry, not a bachelor. Now,
most people who were in the program graduated with a
Bachelor in Science. I did not qualify with my grades
(17:40):
and credits to get a BS, and so I had
a Bachelor in Arts. Bachelor of Arts and chemistry famously
not an art and more of a science.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
I would say, I would totally disagree that chemistry is
not an art. See this podcast for example, Girl, this
is an art. What we do. This chemistry is artful.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
It's an art.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
I know you're good because you can really do it
with a broken heart. I know you're good because you
can really do it with a broken heart.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
There you go. In January twenty twenty three, Sonny quit
her job as the director of Global Creative Operations at
as Stay Lauder to focus on breaking full time. This
is a girl who said, honey, get the lipstick off,
wipe off the concealer's watches. I'm putting on loose fitting
clothes and breaking for my job.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I love this. This is aspirational af Imagine being the
coolest person everyone knows. And you're Sonny and you're the
director of Global Creative Operations at Esta Lauder and you
went to Pennswarton School. You're like unbothered. Of course you
can break, but you don't do it. And then you're
already this person that's a full icon and you say,
(18:59):
you know what, I'm leveling up even more. I'm actually
going to the Olympics and I'm not just gonna go.
I'm gonna be the person everyone talks about. And at
an event surrounding all this, I'm gonna meet Bowen Yang
girl who's leisure boutique, who's legabatique, and she's an ally
what I thought you were gonna say. She was also
leisure boutique, and then I would have fallen off my
(19:20):
chair because we really it really would be rating greatness
at that point.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
No, she is one of our best straits.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
That's okay.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Oh, it's more than we celebrate. That's not just okay, man.
That's like saying I tolerate gay people.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
No, no, no, I would don't do that. Well, I do
tolerate gay people. Just to be I do tolerate gay people.
Gay guys they don't just want attention, you know, they
don't actually want to date you. They just want your attention.
They want you to engage with them in a way
that would suggest something happened. But then they don't actually
want anything to happen. They just want the attention and
(19:53):
to do the little bait and fish. Anyway, single girls
here on the podcast. You know who else is? Well,
I don't know if she's single, but she's certainly next
on the list of people were going to talk about CARRISA. Moore,
the surfer Tokyo Olympic gold medalist Carisa More. You'll recall
from a previous episode we did the surfing competition for
(20:14):
the twenty twenty four Paris Game is actually going to
take place in Tahiti. So that's why you have to
be a completist about listening to this, because in order
to know that information, you would have had to listen
like you would have been without that. She's a five
time world champion. She'll be in Tahiti. This is the
end of the road for her. She will be retiring
from competitive surfing this year. The Olympics are her final event.
She has a chance to win a second Olympic title.
(20:35):
She's part of a strong three woman contingent for the
US with Caroline Marks and Caitlin Simmers, which I have
to say are iconic names for people that are going
to be in the water. As someone who mostly remembers
what was her name, Susan not Suzanne Summers, Summer Sanders.
Remember Summer Sanders, I don't Summer Sanders is the host
(20:56):
to figure it out on Nickelodeon. And then I was like, wow,
who is this. My mom was like, oh, I think
she's an Olympic swimmer. I was like, oh cool.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
I think this has the beginnings of a rom come
the Olympics. No Carissa being like this is my last year.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Oh yeah, that's good.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
I'm not doing this anymore. But then she falls in
love with a gorgeous person in Tahiti who not only
lights of fire romantically, but lights of fire for her
love of surfing, of competitive surfing. And she boards the
plane and Tahiti to go to Paris for the closing
(21:33):
ceremonies and to hang it all up. But this person
that she's met, maybe it's a mermaid in the water, goes.
Don't go to Paris, stay in Tahaitis surf with me.
I think we should write it.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
He was Tahiti along. That was sort of me trying
to make it like like I was here all along work.
I don't think that really did. Who would you cast
in this part? Sydney's REENI should we just do that
and hang it up?
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I think Sidney should be Carissa. I think you would
be the Mermaian. You think people would love to see
you as the Mermian.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Do you think me and sid Swain would have romantic chemistry?
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Oh? My god? Like you wouldn't if she and I.
She she was convincing. She's so good of an actor
that she made it believable that we would have any chemistry.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
No problem, you have a Bachelor of Arts and Chemistry.
About when you have chemistry with anyone. It is what
you what's what do you went to school for?
Speaker 2 (22:34):
I think you and sid Sween would get along gangbusters hope.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
So I couldn't like her. I kind of have a
crush on her. My celebrity crush is Sidney Sweeney.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
I gotta tell you something. See, this is when we're
not Elizabetigue. Is when we're the Thursday After Assists woman
we go she's she's really gorgeous.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
She's really gorgeous. Anyway, I do think she should play
Charissa Moore. I think that'd be great. Also, iconic name
carisam Moore. Did I make that up? Or what Kisa
Moore is a name I would make out.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
No, it sounds like she's part of the X menme
Jean Gray, Madeline bryor carrisam Moore.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
When she goes into the water, she turns into a
shark woman. She hears our mutant friend weakscept her. Sometimes
these outsiders are just looking for acceptance. Do you ever
think about that?
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Not very leisure fautiguuld be not very legend batique.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
You know this is just like okay, by the way,
I actually so we're looking now at the document, because
I want to tell you something, nothing gets done without
a document in podcasting. Everyone out. That's a peak behind
the curtain. So we sort of have a guide here
that the producers have made and the question before they
they suggested some possible conversation prompts, which I think is
(24:03):
adorable of them, because like, imagine us coming on here
and not having things to flap our trap about, and
they suggested things for us to chat about. Bo I
think it is the sweetest.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
So I was going to say it is an act
of pure generosity and kindness m hm, that they are
giving us some structures, some way into let's just say,
bringing it back to Paris.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Well, the possible question topic to start this and then
we're going to bring it right back to Paris was, Matt,
what songs were in heavy rotation on your iPod nano
during your storied four thirty six mile. By the way,
their attempt to try to date me with the iPod
nano is fruitless. I didn't have an iPod nano. I
had a big one, in fact, one that was too
(24:48):
big and was laborious when I tried to run with it,
but we were not yet technologically advanced enough in terms
of comfort regarding where you put your iPod while you ran.
But I did not have a nano regular iPod, and
the album that was hitting the hardest was Breakaway by
Kelly Clarkson, an iconic cardio album. Yes, the girls know
(25:10):
what I'm talking about, Oh yes. And I also want
to say behind the Hazel Eyes they might have just
renamed it Matt Get Up this Hill, because what was
I listening to while I had to traverse planes, doing
cross country, doing winter track. It was behind the Hazel Eyes,
that is behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
I want you to describe what you were seeing, what
you were feeling at what point in the mile or
in the run, or in the event, whatever is tied
to Kelly singing no, I don't cry on the outside anymore.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
I'm so happy you said that literal part, because of
course real fans know, and everyone that listens to this
podcast tuned in so that hopefully we talk about this
very topic. I know that total one to one with
what this podcast is supposed to be. But there's a
part in the bridge when Kelly in the music video
is in a white wedding dress. They're commonly white, and
(26:11):
she's absolutely running through the woods and she's getting fifth
feet dirty and she looks so stunning. She's in the mud.
She falls in the mud, and then her from the
future comes and like picture up off the ground and
is like, I don't cry on the outside anymore. And
it's two Kelly's like consoling each other, the one who's
been like dejected, Oh my God, and the one who's
who's from the future ready to give you her salvation
(26:33):
because all she really needed was herself. And when I
was running in cross country through the woods, just like
Kelly was running through the woods, you couldn't have told
me that I wasn't Kelly Clarkson herself leaving her own
wedding to run through the forests.
Speaker 5 (26:51):
I was gay, then I am gay now. Leja battique,
les je batique. That is my leisure batique story.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Let's bring it back to Paris. Thank you for sharing that.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
We have to give out the medals between Carrissa Moore,
Sonny Choy and b Boy Victor, Like we have to
like this is it's the time of the episode where
we have to start making big decisions.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Okay, you know what, I love Victor. He is going
to be a star. He is guaranteed to win the gold.
He doesn't need our gold. I'm gonna give him the bronze.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Yeah, I was gonna say the same thing. I mean,
Victor again, we love you and we believe in you,
just like your father. You just get the bronze today.
That's It's okay.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
But you're leaving Paris with at least one gold in
the debut event of men's breaking.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
So congratulations, congrats on that. Now the silver medal, I
think we have to give that. Who do you think
this is close? This is milliseconds.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
I'm gonna give it to Carissa. Yeah. I can'tnot get
my girl Sonny the gold. That is a star. And
you got excited at the potential of her being leisure fatigue,
but she is not.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
That's okay. I think that I'm still okay with giving
straight people the medals, even though I'm so excited about
shir Carrie and like you know, we talk a lot
about Greg Like, well, I'm still okay with straight people
winning the medals. I just don't think the Olympics are
for them anymore. They're for us now. But I can
they still win a medal here or there.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Don't displace or don't you're gentrifying the Olympics.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Okay, damn it. I was really trying hard not to
do that on this podcast.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Gay guys, we gentrify and we just have to reckon
with that.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
Leisure fatigue is so complicated to be so I guess
we're giving Sunny Troy the gold.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Huh, Sonny gets the gold. This girl was working at
s day Lauder running the pop ups and the activations
and figuring out how to get a booth at the
mall Global Creative Operations. That is a huge, huge responsibility
for a I'm sorry, disc big global company.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
So let me tell you something. She It's like when
someone is so good at living life that they I
guess you could say she shreds. She shreds. Sunny shreds.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Sunny shreds the endgame for her and this is is
actually from her. She wants to open up a nonprofit
dance studio and just pay it forward. She is the
Alicia Edwards of the Olympics. We have to give her
the gold.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
She has the gold. Congratulations, Sonny, you earn the medal
that matches the hue of your name and you were
born for this moment.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Sonny congratulations, that was beautiful, That was poet.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Thank you, thank you. You know I learned to use
my voice too many years ago. Can't get into it now, though,
because while we're wrapping up the episode and we want
to thank everyone for being here yet again and invite
you to watch every moment of the twenty twenty four
paras Olympics beginning July twenty six on NBCNP and for
the first time, you can stream the twenty twenty four
parischemes on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
We hope you enjoyed this episode. We hope you use
Elizabeth Chief in the real world. Do you really want
this to be a movement?
Speaker 1 (30:12):
We finally did it.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
We finally did it. I think we solved something.
It rings from the voices. Two guys, we really are
just two voices at the end of all this you
know about.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
I mean, and we're lucky to have a voice in
so many ways. Would you say yes?
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Once you learn to use yours and that question can
be whatever it means to you.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
You know, I had good teachers. I had a good
choir teacher told me you're a baritone. I said, really,
this voice, this voice is a baritone.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
You are one of the best baritones of our time.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Well, I might have dropped a couple octaves.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
It happens. I'm life worn, road hard, put away wet
by this thing we call life.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
By this thing we call life.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
You know.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
I feel like that's the grectly Gainus biopic title right there.
Road hard, put.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Away, hard, and put away wet by this thing called life.
I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
We're still pining after Greg luganis from our first discussion
of him.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Honey, when someone becomes a Google search with their name
and the word shirtless, or their name and the word hot,
or their name and the word speedo or their name
and the word fill in thirsty blank, that's just now
your computer knows okay, and your computer talks to your phone,
which talks to you know, the cosmos.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
The cosmos, you know what. I'm terrified we'll make its
way out there, and so I'm just going to come
out ahead of it.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
What are you so afraid of?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
So around the same time as Greg Lugina's Shirtless in
My Youth, I was also discovering the website Broadway dot com,
and on Broadway dot Com you could learn more about
the shows that were on in and off Broadway, including
the show Naked Boy Singing.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Can I say it's one of the great sites if
you want to know what's on Broadway right now or
even coming up down the pike. Broadway dot Com discover
it now. I know Bowen discovered at a young formative age. Yeah,
but log on, but continue, log on, go off.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Add to car, I discovered Naked Boy Singing, the classic
off Broadway review that features you guessed it, Naked Boy Singing.
And some of these boys were and still are quite
titillating for a boy of pubescent age and post you know.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
What, you certainly post and I'm going to reveal something
in a sec But you wouldn't book that job if
you weren't going to get up there and look delightful
singing in the nude. I when I was in college,
dated one of the naked boys singing, Oh my God,
very briefly, and I was like, I really want to
(02:44):
come see your show. He was mortified. He was like,
absolutely not. You may not tell him. He's like, it's
not He's like, it's not naked boy singing in like
a sexy way or the way I want you to
see me naked. It's goofy and silly and a.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Little a little corny. And then the way that we love, well,
it's foppish, it's popish. And I don't think he wanted
me to see him in the poppish ways, but I said, no,
I think that'll be good.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
That'll be good. But I never did see him in
the show, and I never did see him naked.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Well, that first part is going to say, good for
you for respecting boundaries. That second part I go, well,
that's a shame. If you wanted to see him naked.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
I know, and I never did. But basically, when I
talk about adversity, bo just to bring it back to
Paris and we got to be sh Carrie Richardson has
solidified her spot.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
It's a dream deferred, but it tastes just as sweet.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
My god, you are one of the most beautiful speakers
I learned.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Geez my voice. Thank you, choir, thank you all statements, choir.
Thank you. Because Bowen Yang always had the tambour, you
didn't always have the words. Thank you, teachers, t thank
you teachers. Let's celebrate and coaches. Let's celebrate Shakii Richardson,
(04:08):
her coaches, her teachers. She is the clear favorite for
the women's one hundred two in the gold. We are
so thrilled for Shakri Legend.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
We love you, a world leader in this event. Ten
point seventy one seconds literally ten seconds, literally quite literally.
You say I'll be there in ten seconds, and everyone
always sort of tosses that off as meaning I'll be
literally right there. She was one spot in the track
to the next in ten seconds.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
If you say I'll be there in ten seconds, your
name better be shad Carry Richardson, because otherwise you're a liar.
And I don't want to make a liar out of you.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
No, no, And this is what we were saying about
it being down to the milliseconds because it feels commanding.
I mean like she is the front runner, but Melissa
Jefferson also clinched her place in Paris, taking second place
with ten point eight seconds, as did twenty Sha Terry,
who held on for a third ten point eight nine.
(05:08):
So let's just say something right now. All these girls
will be there in ten seconds.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
If they say they will be there in ten seconds,
within oh point one eight seconds of each other. It
is a photo finish, as we call it in the biz.
It is a dead heat.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
It is a dead heat across the board, across the board.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
These girls are touching the line at around the same time.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
At right around the same time. Do you think there
is a sisterhood amongst them?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
I think Tanisha and Melissa and Sha Carrie go out
for drinks and they go, we need a fourth. We
need to complete the Sex and the City quadrillo quartel.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
My god, oh my god, they really do they need
a fourth? They need a fourth so rough to be
like in a four and know that only three of
you can go on, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Like ough, you need them to clink a Cosmo glassgow.
Why do we stop drinking these? You need a fourth
one to go because everyone else started?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
And can I say you delivered that in a way
that Candace Bushnell could never because she's behind the scenes.
But my girl is a huge star, and he took
those lines written by an iconic woman and delivered by
iconic women. I have to say, who do you think
would win in one hundred meter race, Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte
(06:31):
or the iconic Samantha.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
I think the easy answer is Miranda, But I think
Charlotte comes in out of nowhere.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
I think Charlotte is so prepared. I think Charlotte is
going to be She also was always on her exercise game.
When she's always walking around the city, She's always moving.
She's a cardio queen like and they build that into
the show. It's not explicit, but she is a queen.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
But Charlotte's sex scenes were always the most aerobic. Everyone's like, oh,
it's Samantha was the big fluozy or whatever. But Charlotte
can put it down.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Yeah. I think that it's going to be between her
and Samantha, because Samantha, you know, she's very limber, like
she keeps herself. I think Samantha keeps it squeaky. To
put it quitely, and to quote the legend Ari she's.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Been drinking coffee and she keeps it squeaky. She's been
eating healthy. I feel like she you know, she has
a very high intensity job. She's a big publicist. She's
drinking water, she's staying stretched. She lives such a physical,
kernal life that I think she's going to go for
the gold in a major way. Mmm. I just do
(07:51):
we ever talk about this not to reference our other podcasts?
What Samantha's a publicist, Yeah, Charlotte's Katy, Miranda the reader,
And I guess Carrie is a finalists? Well, canst and
then carry rand?
Speaker 1 (08:07):
I think I think Carrie is a finalist because we
have to file into the different categories. But I will
say this in this context, Carrie Bradshaw is gonna be
fourth place in the race, and she's not going to
qualify for the Paris Olympics, which first of all.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
She doesn't make her literally doesn't make her finalist.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
She's not a finalist in this Regardo. So I think
we know she wouldn't really want to go back to Paris.
Probably would be very triggering if you watched the last season.
But I do want to say her arches are destroyed.
The Manolo Blaniks have destroyed her feet, and Carrie Richardson,
I bet she has gorgeous arches such that would carry
her over the finish line and into the gold medal position,
hopefully in the Paris Games. But Carrie's arches are destroyed.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
So sorry, Carrie, you will not be going to Paris.
You will always be known like Lauren Conrad, as the
girl who didn't go to Paris, but you did. You
actually did in the end.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
And I think that Miranda would throw.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Diss Miranda would be discussed. She would want to harken
back to antiquity.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yes, and I'm happy that you made it about that
and not about the obvious lesbian thing, because there is
obviously an obvious lesbian thing.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
To say, lesbian's played Frisbee.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
I certainly think that they are more shot put discus people.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Than Frisbye is for everybody.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
I don't know. I don't mean to center any sexual
orientation around these events. I guess as a former track
athlete who ran a mile in four minutes and thirty
six seconds at my best at age fifteen, I just
kind of the girls I knew, like, let's just say,
in the future, they would come out. They would come
out of the closet as LGBTQ plus the shot putters
(09:41):
and the disc throwers.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
I want to first of all, that is huge insight.
Thank you for educating me.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
I'm just trying to be anthropological about this.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
And you are and you always have been. Thank you
speaking which I want to preview something I want to
bring to our other podcast, Hospitalistists, but I want to
sort of like test out here.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Do I know about it?
Speaker 2 (10:02):
No? Oh, And I've actually been waiting for the right mind.
Went to share this with you.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
We're working it out on the remix.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
It's working out on the remix. I am really getting
a little sick of watching everybody, including queer people, stumble
on the letters of LGBTQ plus. It just makes everybody uncomfortable,
like we all kind of short circuit. We're just it's
like it's like, really, those are letters that are all
(10:28):
very tough on the the addiction, the elocution. It's hard
to really like blow past it, right, yes, especially if
you're like kind of talking talking talking, your words permitted
are set, and then it slows you down. That bottle
next to you was when you say the word, When
you say LGBTQ plus. I want us to create a
(10:50):
new word Lygibatique legibautique. Thank you for this already. I
want you to know my immediate instinct is to accept
it with arms wide open into my life and the
greater consciousness.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
That is my immediate response.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
And as a French sounding word, I think Paris. I
think the Olympics is a great place to debut it
for the culture Legiabetique.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
Batique. The Legia Batique community is back now with this,
we are so back. I have to tell you. I
can see luminaries saying this word. I can see Chloe
Sevani saying, are we not luminaries ourselves? Well, first of all,
I just want to say the fact that you, with
that baritone and this background and this training, the fact
(11:37):
that you were the one to bring this forward, I
think means something. And I think leisure Bautique, that's certainly
the community I'm a part of.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I'm Elizabetique.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Down is shau Carrie part of the Elizabetique.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I think so. Greg Lugainis was one of the first
Eligabatique icons at the Olympics who was out Shakarrie Richardson legabetique, legend.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Elizabet legend. Queer woman Shaky Richardson is now fastest woman
in the world. She's the fastest elizap batique individual on
planet Earth.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
That's amazing.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
It's raining greatness. I have to say that with my
full chest.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
Are so here to say it is raining greatness. I
don't even care that this is for everyone.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
It's four gays.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Now, it's four gays. It's for legitbatiques, dead ass. Do
you think legibatique has legs.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
One hundred percent? I want you to know I feel
not only excited about it, but inspired by it.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Please spell it well.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
First of all, I think if anyone sees imprint on
paper on screen the letters LGBTQ plus, you can read
that as legibatique. Yes, but if you want to like
create a distinct word for it, you know, because for
linguistic reasons, the word represents the concept. And so L
E G E b A t i q you e.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
You threw an a in there that I did not expect,
but very queer leisure bautique. For some reason, I was
seeing L E G E B E t i q
u E leisabatique. But it's eat to me because I'm
not the creator. You threw the first brick, I did,
you laid the first letters.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Thank you? Can I say this The bricks were already there,
the letters. I just look the more I put the
mortar around the bricks.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I'm always so proud of you, the way that you
carry the legacy of our ancestors forward. But when you
said Lejah Batique, and I want you to hear this,
you really did something there. And to be told that
by another game personally that you really did something there.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Oh my god, this is one of this is I
this is one of the biggest honors of my life
to hear you.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Say that you There should be an award for when
someone really does something there, like you remember when you
won the Human Rights Campaign Award for visibility. I do
because I gave the speech. We need to go back
in time to make it that this year someone really
did something there. About the Cultural Awards next year, we
have to have this is the award for someone that
really did something that wins.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
Shakirie. Oh I got Cari, please come to the Culture Awards. Okay,
we are getting so off track.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
We got to bring it back to Paris. Today we're
here to talk about basically if you thought we've even
breached the surface of the athletes that we can look
(14:38):
forward to seeing. Like I mean, we're popping off about
Shakarry because there's big news like she is a qualifier,
but there are so many more top athletes to talk about.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
And this is what we're doing today on this episode
of Two Guys, Five Rings. We got to bring it
back to Paris. There are some stars in the making,
if not already stars is born out of the dust
and space.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
I want to talk about our bee boy and b
girl legends. Yep, Victor Montalvo and Sonny Choi, who is
the coolest girl.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
In the world confirmed in a first hand type of way.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
From you confirmed cool girl lives for sure.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
Talk to us about Victor Montalvo, known as bee Boy
Victor and Sonny Choi, who is the legend you've met?
What are they going to bring to breaking an Olympic sport.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Victor is the first American ever to qualify for the
Olympics and breaking. He's the favorite to win the gold
medal in the Olympic debut of men's breaking. I think
this man is gonna walk home with a heavy neck.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
B boy.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Victor got into the sport through his father, Victor. I
think we have a junior here.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
I think we've got a junior here.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
I think we got a junior here. And uncle Hector Bermudez,
his twin brother, father's twin brother. Ooh, if I had
a twin uncle, if my dad had a twin, I'd say,
hold on now, now, which one.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Of you is? Which one are you? Now? Are you
dad of your uncle? Because let me tell you something
Todd out here too, tell.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
And they and so these are both be boy legends
from Mexico. They discovered breaking through a friend's cousin homemade
Breaking documentary, which they watched on VCR. Here we go, Matt,
you certainly had a VCR and you could have had
the same gateway to breaking as Victor and Hector and
Victor Junior. But that's not how my life panned out.
And that's okay, that's okay. Victor said his father was
(16:38):
the quote only one who truly believed in him, And
we just want to stay here and now on two guys,
five rings. That is no longer true.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Now we believe in you too. We are your father
now It's like from the movie Precious when Paula Patton,
the teacher says you, that's us. That is so us
coded towards we.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Are Paula Patten and we are Mariah Carey.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
I mean, you know who believes in sunny CHOI me
Wharton School.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Wharton. Oh my god, did.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
You know that sunny CHOI graduated with a Bachelor of
Science in marketing in twenty eleven from Penn's Wharton School.
That is intense.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
For her to get a Bachelor of Science in marketing
is like me getting And this is actually what happened.
I have a Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry, not a bachelor. Now,
most people who were in the program graduated with a
Bachelor in Science. I did not qualify with my grades
(17:40):
and credits to get a BS, and so I had
a Bachelor in Arts. Bachelor of Arts and chemistry famously
not an art and more of a science.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
I would say, I would totally disagree that chemistry is
not an art. See this podcast for example, Girl, this
is an art. What we do. This chemistry is artful.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
It's an art.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
I know you're good because you can really do it
with a broken heart. I know you're good because you
can really do it with a broken heart.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
There you go. In January twenty twenty three, Sonny quit
her job as the director of Global Creative Operations at
as Stay Lauder to focus on breaking full time. This
is a girl who said, honey, get the lipstick off,
wipe off the concealer's watches. I'm putting on loose fitting
clothes and breaking for my job.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I love this. This is aspirational af Imagine being the
coolest person everyone knows. And you're Sonny and you're the
director of Global Creative Operations at Esta Lauder and you
went to Pennswarton School. You're like unbothered. Of course you
can break, but you don't do it. And then you're
already this person that's a full icon and you say,
(18:59):
you know what, I'm leveling up even more. I'm actually
going to the Olympics and I'm not just gonna go.
I'm gonna be the person everyone talks about. And at
an event surrounding all this, I'm gonna meet Bowen Yang
girl who's leisure boutique, who's legabatique, and she's an ally
what I thought you were gonna say. She was also
leisure boutique, and then I would have fallen off my
(19:20):
chair because we really it really would be rating greatness
at that point.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
No, she is one of our best straits.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
That's okay.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Oh, it's more than we celebrate. That's not just okay, man.
That's like saying I tolerate gay people.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
No, no, no, I would don't do that. Well, I do
tolerate gay people. Just to be I do tolerate gay people.
Gay guys they don't just want attention, you know, they
don't actually want to date you. They just want your attention.
They want you to engage with them in a way
that would suggest something happened. But then they don't actually
want anything to happen. They just want the attention and
(19:53):
to do the little bait and fish. Anyway, single girls
here on the podcast. You know who else is? Well,
I don't know if she's single, but she's certainly next
on the list of people were going to talk about CARRISA. Moore,
the surfer Tokyo Olympic gold medalist Carisa More. You'll recall
from a previous episode we did the surfing competition for
(20:14):
the twenty twenty four Paris Game is actually going to
take place in Tahiti. So that's why you have to
be a completist about listening to this, because in order
to know that information, you would have had to listen
like you would have been without that. She's a five
time world champion. She'll be in Tahiti. This is the
end of the road for her. She will be retiring
from competitive surfing this year. The Olympics are her final event.
She has a chance to win a second Olympic title.
(20:35):
She's part of a strong three woman contingent for the
US with Caroline Marks and Caitlin Simmers, which I have
to say are iconic names for people that are going
to be in the water. As someone who mostly remembers
what was her name, Susan not Suzanne Summers, Summer Sanders.
Remember Summer Sanders, I don't Summer Sanders is the host
(20:56):
to figure it out on Nickelodeon. And then I was like, wow,
who is this. My mom was like, oh, I think
she's an Olympic swimmer. I was like, oh cool.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
I think this has the beginnings of a rom come
the Olympics. No Carissa being like this is my last year.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Oh yeah, that's good.
Speaker 2 (21:11):
I'm not doing this anymore. But then she falls in
love with a gorgeous person in Tahiti who not only
lights of fire romantically, but lights of fire for her
love of surfing, of competitive surfing. And she boards the
plane and Tahiti to go to Paris for the closing
(21:33):
ceremonies and to hang it all up. But this person
that she's met, maybe it's a mermaid in the water, goes.
Don't go to Paris, stay in Tahaitis surf with me.
I think we should write it.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
He was Tahiti along. That was sort of me trying
to make it like like I was here all along work.
I don't think that really did. Who would you cast
in this part? Sydney's REENI should we just do that
and hang it up?
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I think Sidney should be Carissa. I think you would
be the Mermaian. You think people would love to see
you as the Mermian.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Do you think me and sid Swain would have romantic chemistry?
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Oh? My god? Like you wouldn't if she and I.
She she was convincing. She's so good of an actor
that she made it believable that we would have any chemistry.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
No problem, you have a Bachelor of Arts and Chemistry.
About when you have chemistry with anyone. It is what
you what's what do you went to school for?
Speaker 2 (22:34):
I think you and sid Sween would get along gangbusters hope.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
So I couldn't like her. I kind of have a
crush on her. My celebrity crush is Sidney Sweeney.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
I gotta tell you something. See, this is when we're
not Elizabetigue. Is when we're the Thursday After Assists woman
we go she's she's really gorgeous.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
She's really gorgeous. Anyway, I do think she should play
Charissa Moore. I think that'd be great. Also, iconic name
carisam Moore. Did I make that up? Or what Kisa
Moore is a name I would make out.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
No, it sounds like she's part of the X menme
Jean Gray, Madeline bryor carrisam Moore.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
When she goes into the water, she turns into a
shark woman. She hears our mutant friend weakscept her. Sometimes
these outsiders are just looking for acceptance. Do you ever
think about that?
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Not very leisure fautiguuld be not very legend batique.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
You know this is just like okay, by the way,
I actually so we're looking now at the document, because
I want to tell you something, nothing gets done without
a document in podcasting. Everyone out. That's a peak behind
the curtain. So we sort of have a guide here
that the producers have made and the question before they
they suggested some possible conversation prompts, which I think is
(24:03):
adorable of them, because like, imagine us coming on here
and not having things to flap our trap about, and
they suggested things for us to chat about. Bo I
think it is the sweetest.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
So I was going to say it is an act
of pure generosity and kindness m hm, that they are
giving us some structures, some way into let's just say,
bringing it back to Paris.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Well, the possible question topic to start this and then
we're going to bring it right back to Paris was, Matt,
what songs were in heavy rotation on your iPod nano
during your storied four thirty six mile. By the way,
their attempt to try to date me with the iPod
nano is fruitless. I didn't have an iPod nano. I
had a big one, in fact, one that was too
(24:48):
big and was laborious when I tried to run with it,
but we were not yet technologically advanced enough in terms
of comfort regarding where you put your iPod while you ran.
But I did not have a nano regular iPod, and
the album that was hitting the hardest was Breakaway by
Kelly Clarkson, an iconic cardio album. Yes, the girls know
(25:10):
what I'm talking about, Oh yes. And I also want
to say behind the Hazel Eyes they might have just
renamed it Matt Get Up this Hill, because what was
I listening to while I had to traverse planes, doing
cross country, doing winter track. It was behind the Hazel Eyes,
that is behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
I want you to describe what you were seeing, what
you were feeling at what point in the mile or
in the run, or in the event, whatever is tied
to Kelly singing no, I don't cry on the outside anymore.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
I'm so happy you said that literal part, because of
course real fans know, and everyone that listens to this
podcast tuned in so that hopefully we talk about this
very topic. I know that total one to one with
what this podcast is supposed to be. But there's a
part in the bridge when Kelly in the music video
is in a white wedding dress. They're commonly white, and
(26:11):
she's absolutely running through the woods and she's getting fifth
feet dirty and she looks so stunning. She's in the mud.
She falls in the mud, and then her from the
future comes and like picture up off the ground and
is like, I don't cry on the outside anymore. And
it's two Kelly's like consoling each other, the one who's
been like dejected, Oh my God, and the one who's
who's from the future ready to give you her salvation
(26:33):
because all she really needed was herself. And when I
was running in cross country through the woods, just like
Kelly was running through the woods, you couldn't have told
me that I wasn't Kelly Clarkson herself leaving her own
wedding to run through the forests.
Speaker 5 (26:51):
I was gay, then I am gay now. Leja battique,
les je batique. That is my leisure batique story.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Let's bring it back to Paris. Thank you for sharing that.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
We have to give out the medals between Carrissa Moore,
Sonny Choy and b Boy Victor, Like we have to
like this is it's the time of the episode where
we have to start making big decisions.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Okay, you know what, I love Victor. He is going
to be a star. He is guaranteed to win the gold.
He doesn't need our gold. I'm gonna give him the bronze.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Yeah, I was gonna say the same thing. I mean,
Victor again, we love you and we believe in you,
just like your father. You just get the bronze today.
That's It's okay.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
But you're leaving Paris with at least one gold in
the debut event of men's breaking.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
So congratulations, congrats on that. Now the silver medal, I
think we have to give that. Who do you think
this is close? This is milliseconds.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
I'm gonna give it to Carissa. Yeah. I can'tnot get
my girl Sonny the gold. That is a star. And
you got excited at the potential of her being leisure fatigue,
but she is not.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
That's okay. I think that I'm still okay with giving
straight people the medals, even though I'm so excited about
shir Carrie and like you know, we talk a lot
about Greg Like, well, I'm still okay with straight people
winning the medals. I just don't think the Olympics are
for them anymore. They're for us now. But I can
they still win a medal here or there.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Don't displace or don't you're gentrifying the Olympics.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Okay, damn it. I was really trying hard not to
do that on this podcast.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
Gay guys, we gentrify and we just have to reckon
with that.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
Leisure fatigue is so complicated to be so I guess
we're giving Sunny Troy the gold.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Huh, Sonny gets the gold. This girl was working at
s day Lauder running the pop ups and the activations
and figuring out how to get a booth at the
mall Global Creative Operations. That is a huge, huge responsibility
for a I'm sorry, disc big global company.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
So let me tell you something. She It's like when
someone is so good at living life that they I
guess you could say she shreds. She shreds. Sunny shreds.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
Sunny shreds the endgame for her and this is is
actually from her. She wants to open up a nonprofit
dance studio and just pay it forward. She is the
Alicia Edwards of the Olympics. We have to give her
the gold.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
She has the gold. Congratulations, Sonny, you earn the medal
that matches the hue of your name and you were
born for this moment.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Sonny congratulations, that was beautiful, That was poet.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Thank you, thank you. You know I learned to use
my voice too many years ago. Can't get into it now, though,
because while we're wrapping up the episode and we want
to thank everyone for being here yet again and invite
you to watch every moment of the twenty twenty four
paras Olympics beginning July twenty six on NBCNP and for
the first time, you can stream the twenty twenty four
parischemes on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
We hope you enjoyed this episode. We hope you use
Elizabeth Chief in the real world. Do you really want
this to be a movement?
Speaker 1 (30:12):
We finally did it.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
We finally did it. I think we solved something.
