(00:01):
Yes, it's Man and Soap,the podcast coming at you a little late.
This week's out of town, Sorryabout that. Man and Soap is
the podcast about our favorite city andI'm state New York. Port Chows Baby,
Oh yeah, shirts are coming off, affairs are happening, There is

(00:22):
deception everywhere. It's summer in Portshows and things are getting good. Thanks

wherever you listen to your podcast.Yeah, yeah, wherever you listen as
we broadcast live from the Metro Court. Yeah, good stuff happening. We

(00:48):
kind of break this down this podcast. I break it down into pretty simple
bits. Things I love, thingsI don't love, or things I hate,
whatever, and some stuff in between. And this week was really good.
I've really limited my hate this summeron Portchrales, because you know,
I am a cheerleader ultimately for thesoap. I've been watching it for like
thirty five years. Maybe how longhas it been now? I'm thinking maybe
God, no longer than that,God says a kid. But yeah,

(01:14):
if you get the soap on theiHeartRadio app, you get on Spotify,
you get on Apple podcasts wherever thankyou so much. And I need to
do a better job of dropping thisin a timely fashion. But yeah,
this week was oh my god,the kiss heard around the world, the
fourth of July Kiss the fourth ofJuly. Drew Willow when he said you'd

(01:42):
win a beauty contest in those scrubs, I was like, bounce, wow,
game on, and then the kisshappened. A lot of drama with
Drew cortermain right, Drew. Iloved it. I loved the scene.
I thought it was great. Ithink Michael is a snooze. Well,

(02:06):
you know, Willa was waiting toget with Drew. You know Michael's a
dud. I mean, come on, uh so, I that's gonna be
very interesting in their awkward exchanges.And Drew cornermain Chris uh with the endorsement
for maconkie. You had the SecretService right by him. Guy had better
protection than President Trump. My god, I mean two of them from the

(02:34):
Trump team. I'm like what theydid for Senator McConkie. There newbies in
the studio laughing. But yeah,there were some really good scenes. I
thought the week was not great,and we're talking last week, so I
know some of you don't a lotof you watch it in lifetime, but
I also know a lot of youare like me where you maybe you binge

(02:54):
watch it over the weekend. Ijust got around a little later this week,
but so hopefully you know you're withme on this though. So yeah,
Drew and Willill loved it. Ithought it was really good. Love
the Fourth of July. Say,I always love Fourth of July and Port
Charles. I love the fireworks.I think that whatever stock footage they use
or whatever they do a great job. Like I want to be at the
Quartermain's watching fireworks. Sasha walking inon the kiss. Love that because someone's

(03:19):
got to be able to dangle thatcarrot at some point, right, That's
that's just part of the deal.Will Sasha end up now? She told
Cody, I'm we'll get to Codyin a little because I got some good
Cody drama too. But uh,Sasha confided in call Cody about that kiss.
So yeah, that was pretty interesting. That was a really good scene.

(03:44):
I really, I really like thatscene. Cody telling Mac on the
Fourth of July, I'm your sonfinally Mac Max being a little bit of
a bitch, like he's a littletoo sensitive about it. Like, I
get why he's angry, but itrelax a little bit. Cody's had a

(04:06):
tough upbringing, and I love theMac Felicia Cody, you know, Maxie.
I love the family storyline here that'sdeveloping. And I think eventually Mac
will forgive Cody and they will havea very healthy father son relationship. So

(04:28):
yeah, those are things I loved. I loved Sonny and Ava going at
it. Man, things are gettingintense there. I'm loving that. I
think ultimately Sonny wins that. Ithink ultimately port Charles twenty thirty nine,
who will be there in fifteen years. I've got a good character for you

(04:49):
coming up here in just a littlebit. Again, appreciate you listening to
Man and Soap, whether it's onthe free iHeartRadio app or Spotify or Apple
podcasts. You can follow us onMan and Soap. We're on Instagram,
We're on Facebook. Me and Michaelare trying to grow this thing. You

(05:12):
would help if I got my assin here earlier. But we'll start dropping
this thing a little earlier in theweek, make it easy for everyone.
I don't really hate a lot,right, I mean, there's not really,
there's not a lot to hate onthe Anna and Valentine storyline is confusing
me because I don't know if she'sjust playing him to get to this whole

(05:38):
Hikeman thing, or I'd like tothink she genuinely has feelings for him,
right am I the only one that'sconfused by that? I mean, I
don't know. I have one ofthem together for so long, and I
don't I think that she genuinely isin love with Valentine and she will eventually
have to maybe try to go afterhim. I don't know, but there,

(06:00):
I mean, there was a lotof good scenes, and I love
when the quartermains are a big partof the storylines, like and I love
the Drew. I love Drew running. I love that he and Willow kissed.
It's a little drama, so there'snot a lot that I I'm hating
on. The credits are weird becauseI'm trying to figure out maybe someone can

(06:23):
respond to us on our Instagram.I think we want to propose the question,
maybe because Michael and I were talkingabout this, If you're in the
credits, does that mean you're inthe episode that day? Are those credits
episodic? I'm starting to think thatthey're not. I'm gonna have to go
through. I'm gonna I'm gonna bethe nerd that goes through all the credits

(06:46):
on the day I watch, I'mgonna keep track of everyone and I want
to see if they're actually on thesoap that day. Something to think about.
I know, I'm weird like that. I notice odd things. There's
Alexis. Alexis, congratulations. I'mglad you practiced. Yes, I'll call

(07:09):
you congrat You're the best. Yeah, I'm so happy she's practicing law again.
Yep, alright, okay, yeah, yeah, she's getting a nail
there. Okay, her and Dianeand there's Diane Da d make a good

(07:30):
law team. Uh. Not alot of Alexis this week, but yeah,
I thought, uh this week,this PreO the week I'm talking about.
It was a slow burn, butthere was enough Monday through Wednesday to
really make it work. So allright, joining us now, he's newbie.

(07:50):
Just call him Michael, because atthis point you've been watching it now
four or five months. It's likemy friend said, at some point,
he's not gonna be the new guyanymore. So Michael comes, he brings
some fast we're gonna go do alittle fact or fiction with Michael as well.
Michael's been watching the soap for aboutthree or four months. Yeah,
what you got for us this week? Michael? What's up that kiss?

(08:16):
Yeah? That kiss? What aboutit? It was set up really nicely
too. I was not expecting that. I was not either. I really
wasn't. But also I did notknow this until uh Monday's episode. Okay,

(08:37):
this past Monday, but I didnot know that. Uh, WELLO
is he has daughter? Yeah,you didn't know that. You came to
me. You were shocked by that. I've been a good factor of fiction.
I could have got you on thattoday. I was so shocked when
I found out that out, Andit was it just things, the drama,

(08:58):
the drama that this has been missingsince Fence. Yeah, gone,
I mean yeah, I mean,you're not wrong, You're not You're not
wrong, You're not wrong. Yeah. That was good and I yeah,
Nina's really trying to get into willowsgood graces too. Yeah, you know,
and now there's just a lot goingon there that that the forces are
trying to prevent that. I mean, it's interesting because then you have Drew

(09:20):
and Drew kissing the daughter having sexwith the mother kissed them both in the
span of about ten minutes too,by the way, and Nina in the
same night. My man, weird, it's weird. It's weird, right,
So but yeah, no, Icompletely agree on that. I completely

(09:43):
agree on that. So so that'ssomething you learned. Anything else you learned
that you want to talk about anythingelse that you I know you spent some
time on Reddit. Michael gave usa good fact last week. If you
listened, he said, how manypeople do you think actually live in the
quartermain household? And I said theover under, I said over if you
threw out seventeen, I said probablyright at the number a little over and

(10:03):
he said they were twenty. Soyeah, so that kind of stuff.
I always find that stuff very interesting. Did you learn anything else this week?
I learned that Richard Simmons was,Yes, a character, Rest in
peace he was. He was afixture, he was. And I saw

(10:24):
he died like, by the way, like literally days after his birthday or
like the day after. Yeah.Yeah, he was a big General Hospital
fan in the in the eighties whenhe was at his height. You're right,
And I saw a clip where Ican't I don't know who was he
was confronting. Yeah, it wasRichard Simmons. Confronding is just hilarious period.
But yeah, but uh, itwas about the Nurses Ball. Oh

(10:48):
yeah, he was a big partof the Nurses Ball. And he said
he was confronting some lady and Iremember is that like at the end he
said, oh, you're not goingto the ball and like choked her with

(11:09):
her own boa or something. Wasit Lucy Coke? I think may have
been Lucy Coe She's been on theshow for a long time, so but
yeah, he's like sorry with hercoach or something. Yeah. Well,
the late great Elizabeth Taylor used tocome on General Hospital as well. People
forget about that. She was amassive fan of General Hospital. General Hospital
pulls the big stars, why becauseit's poor Charles Baby. Also found out,

(11:33):
thanks to you, that James Francois also on there. He was
Franco. Now, that was gonnabe on My Factor Fiction, but I
gave it away to you yesterday wewere watching the James Franco scenes. People
forget although I like Roger Hollworth orI always forgot how but your last name
is the other Franco. You don'tremember him as Franco. Yeah, James

(11:54):
Franko, isn't that crazy? JamesFranco, Sonny, Jason, all of
those scenes. All right, youready for a little fact or fiction?
Sure, all right, all right? Fact or fiction. Sonny and Ava
have a child together. Jesus criminated. That was, well, yeah,

(12:20):
I'm giving you softballs. Okay.Factor fiction. Michael and Sasha were once
married. I want to say,based on what I see on Reddit,
yes, ah, way they werenot. They were together. Okay.

(12:41):
Those scenes were intense this week becauseshe knew that Willow was kissing Drew and
you can see the way. Yeah. Fact or fiction. When Sonny fell
in love with Nina, he wentby the name Mike. That doesn't seem

(13:01):
like a sunny thing to do,so I say, no ah, he
was Mike. He had a memoryloss and they fell in love. Interesting
things you didn't know. Factor fictionwith Michael, Scottie Ballwin and Tracy Coramaine,

(13:22):
Okay, ones had an affair.Fact or fiction. They've been on
the show a long time, soI went and put it past them.
So, yes, they had theaffair. I don't think they have.
No. I might get called outon that, but to my knowledge,

long time. Okay, okay,factor fiction, Matt is Maxie's dad.
Factor of fiction. Mac is thebiological father to Maxie. No, because

(14:07):
uh, Alicia is the bio parent. But who's the no, the biological
