Speaker 1 (00:01):
This is kind of cool.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Kevin Bacon has returned to the high school where Footloose
was shot. Yeah, forty years ago? How cool is this?
The school is actually moving and so they started a
social media campaign that went for six weeks begging him
to come back.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
It was Bacon to Payson?

Speaker 3 (00:19):
Is that where it is in Payson?

Speaker 2 (00:22):
So he turned up over the weekend and said hey
to everyone, and in return, the high school has it
pledged to create five thousand resource kits for his foundation
six degrees dot org. So you know, he walked in
and was like a rock star? Is only Kevin Bacon?

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Camby? Do you know that he used to be my
hall pass?

Speaker 3 (00:39):
Kevin Bacon was, I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
There's something about it.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Yeah, yeah, I get it. He's got Yeah, he's got
something on now. Isn't it funny? Though? I think forty
years ago it was like that movie was about a
school where it wasn't cool to dance. Like now, probably
in that very school at Payson, they're going, kids, turn
off your TikTok. Everyone stopped dancing. We're trying to learn.
Everyone's just constantly dancing. That is so true.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Yellowstones, Kevin Costner, Reckons that you know, he's made so
much money and had so many cool things in his
life that very few things excite him.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
But across the weekend, one thing did. He came to
his house and realized that.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
He'd had delivered a truck, a lifted truck, and it's
like a special Kevin Costner themed, like he's signed a
sponsorship with them. But he was like a kid in
a candy stool when he got into his driveway and
saw that.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
They'd actually gifted him one.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
So all he did across the weekend was post things
on his social media of him cruising around in.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
This a bit because even in Yellowstone it seems like
it's a theme, like everyone has a ginormous ut. Yeah,
and just you know they're always getting rolled.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
It's him a huge party across the weekend we are
talking post Spice. Victoria Beckham had her fiftieth birthday. It
was held at a swanky Mayfair private members club, which
of course is in the UK. One hundred enjoyed dinner
and cocktails and pretty much anything they wanted. There were
so many famous people there, Red Bull Racings, Christian Horner,

(02:07):
who of course is married to Ginger Spice, Rosie Huntington Whiteley,
who's married to Jason Statham.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
They were both there.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Mark Antony was there, Gordon and Tana Ramsey were there,
Ava Longoria was there, Sol Mahaik was there.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
With her husband.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
There was only one hundred people, so it sounds like
everyone there was famous.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
Yeah, pretty much. Well, if you're Victoria Beckham, you can do.
They were. It cost four hundred and eighty thousand pounds.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
Right, Okay, so about a million dollars.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Yeah, about a million dollars.

Speaker 2 (02:38):
They had gift bags that had all these really cool
things of Victoria's in her range of lingerie and clothing and.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Home wears, She's gay stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
Yeah, they were worth about one thousand pounds each.

Speaker 3 (02:50):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
But the thing that everyone was super excited about was
the fact that for all of the Spice girls were
there and they all got up on stage and sang.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Doing the dance.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
I actually saw David Beckham on his Instagram like he
sort of selfied that video. I will say they weren't singing,
they were mouthing the words, but they still just played it, yeah,
which is I think what Posh did. Anyway, Yeah, to
be fair, as one of the Spots girls, they're not
weird that when you turn fifty, because my brother in
law was turning fifty in a few weeks. When you
turn fifty, it's not like when you're a kid and

(03:31):
it's a birthday, you get things, people bring gifts, blah
blah blah. When you turn fifty, you give yes. It's
like we're going to provide food, We'll provide drinks.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
You don't want anything, do you? No?

Speaker 3 (03:41):
I guess not.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
People to buy your crab.

Speaker 3 (03:43):
Yeah, but Posh turns fifty and it costs her a
million dollars. We just wanted a truck.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Yeah, but they could have found that behind the lounge.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
We are going to talk keeps more about the Tortured
Poet Society. Of course, this is Taylor Swift's brand new
album that's dropped. Yeah, just so many people are enamored
with it. I've got a couple of reviews, Okay, some
interesting stuff.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
It wasn't just Swifties going the best thing ever.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
It wasn't just it was sure.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
It actually
