thongs.
Oh, yeah.
And I said this is a gay beachclub and I was very happy to be
there, but I just like had noidea what I was going into and
it was so many men, just men.
I think that me and Haley andLacey Cameron's sister, I think
(04:21):
those we were the only womenthat I saw in a radius literally
, and we walked into like all ofour friends being shwasty
already because they had beenthere for like four hours

Okay, okay, okay and we werejust like whoa, how do we
navigate this?
Yeah, we can't get.
There's no way to catch up toyou, right?
Everyone's wild like.
(04:42):
One of our friends was vomitingover the like.
It was crazy, um, but verybeautiful.
That was the first day and thenwe uh, most days we just like
got up, we had a lunch, we satby the pool.
But let me tell you, tell me.
I have not consumed alcohollike this, I think, ever but did
(05:05):
you get sick?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
In my life, the last night I did oh the worst time to
get it.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I know, but honestly, drinking at the house I never
really felt super drunk.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
But I was drinking a lot.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Just because it was spaced out.
So you just had a consistentbuzz going, but I was drinking a
lot.
Just because it was spaced out,maybe.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
The night that we went out to the bars.
I felt more drunk then.
So I don't know if there's acorrelation, but we just had
ordered bottles of alcohol, itwasn't anything special, and
then we went out.
I don't know if the bar drinkswere made differently or just
(05:47):
like using like really reallybad Watered down Alcohol, like
really really like cheap, but weweren't drinking like whatever.
That.
1942, is that what it is?
46, 42?
Don Julio, the big brown bottle.
I know that's really expensive.
1942?
1942, don Julio, the big brownbottle.
I know that's really expensive.
1942 sounds right, but the big,that big like brown bottle.
(06:08):
That's like the bougie bottle.
It wasn't like we were drinkingthat, but we weren't drinking
like the worst tequila you couldever drink in life.
So I don't know, but I wasdrinking.
I haven't drank like that, Ithink, ever, and in that many
days yeah I am not okay rightnow, like emotionally I have now
(06:29):
recovered.
Physically, okay, good, butemotionally like I'm not okay.
I don't again, don't know whenthe next time I will drink it.
It's like I am a changed person.
I look back.
I looked back after we leftbecause, okay, the last night
I'm getting ahead of myself wewere taking shots I mean, it was
lunchtime, but it was not toolong after waking up because we,
(06:51):
we didn't have like formalbreakfast okay um, we were, you
know, going to bed late, wakingup like nine, somewhere between
nine and ten, and then, uh,lunch was at 11 every day, so we
would have lunch and it wouldbe mimosa.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Whoa.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
It would be like here's a mimosa or here's like a
coffee with Bailey's in it,like it's insane.
And then, as soon as it was, assoon as lunch was over and
people like were by the pool,immediate tequila shot.
It was wild.
And and then it was like drinks, drinks, and then an hour later
, another tequila shot.
It was like so many shots werehappening.
(07:29):
I think the staff was likethese people are insane, like
what is happening.
I feel like during the days Iwasn't drinking that much
because I just like I didn'tfeel that I needed to because
I'm already not a big drinker,but I was playing a part, I feel
(07:50):
so by the end of the weekcaught up to me in the other
night, before we left, I woke upin the middle of the night
vomiting.
Now let me tell you, tell me, Idon't like bugs.
We know, we know this.
Maybe you guys don't know this.
I don't like bugs, smallcreatures, bugs.
We know, we know this.
Maybe you guys don't know this.
I don't like bugs, smallcreatures, small things that
move quickly.
I don't like that includesrodents.
That includes cockroaches well,let me get to the cockroach.
(08:12):
But first when, when josh wasstill there, there was a lizard
on our bed one night and Ididn't like that because it was
moving fast.
He picked it up and removed it.
That was fine.
So the night I woke up sick andI just left the lights off and
(08:35):
I vomited.
And then I saw a figure in thecorner Wait, man-sized,
small-sized, got it and I saidwhat's that?
So I turned on the light andthere was a cockroach.
And now I'm alone because Joshleft on a few days earlier.
Yeah, I was alone and I didn'tknow what to do, right?
(08:56):
So I?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Screamed.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
No, because it was like 3 am.
So I woke up in the middle ofthe night.
There was a glass in thebathroom that I put on top and
it was a heavy glass, so it wasweighted.
I don't think.
I didn't think the cockroachcould move okay so I just put it
there.
I heard giggling outside of mydoor so I opened and I walked
(09:19):
out and I saw who it was.
This was not someone that couldhelp me with the cockroach, but
I tried anyway.
It was Haley and Caleb and theywere doing their, their
giggling Haley and Caleb thing.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
It's 3am.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Everyone's in bed, they sit up, and I said you guys
, there's a cockroach, can youhelp me get it?
And they just stared at me andsaid you know what, never mind.
And I just turned and left, andso I just left it under the uh
glass and I went back to sleepand then I woke up and it was
(09:55):
probably an hour later to throwup again.
Oh okay and it was next to thetoilet and I just like said
we're doing this together.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
And it was still there in the cup.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
It was still there in the cup and I just vomited next
to him and I was like all right, I guess this is what we're
doing tonight.
And so I just said please behere Like, please don't leave,
Please stay under the glass.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Just stay under the glass, stay with me.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
And then we left the next day.
So staff take care of it andsorry to them but I don't.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
I don't do that.
I would be more concerned aboutthe lizard coming back.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Yeah, I mean it was very small as a little guy, but
still, yeah, I mean every nightI was checking the bed to make
sure.
There was not another one, butthat was that.
And then I got home and Ithought to myself why, why did
you do that, like you could havehad fun with your friends and
and just not participated in theamount of alcohol that was?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
I mean I'm more like no, but on the last night that's
like when I would have a hardno, cause you don't want to fly
feeling sick.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Which I did, you did, I wasn't.
I did have a a whole row tomyself, which was very nice.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Wow, that's a blessing.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I don't know how that happened, but that was really
like.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
By the grace of God.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Literally, I was so thankful for that.
I had a bad time and I, just Iwas like I don't know why you
participated in that amount ofdrinking.
You don't drink literally ever.
There are weeks that go by inlife that I do not consume a
single drop of alcohol, rightand and I don't usually like to
(11:33):
be drunk like I like a craftcocktail dinner.
You know, I'll try somethingnew, but I'm not trying like I
don't like the feeling of beingsuper drunk yeah more than a few
times a year.
So I to myself, I was like youare need to be reformed.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Born again.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
And I've had so much water over the past week and
half and I don't know when thenext time I will drink is, and
that is my declaration, maybeyour birthday.
Maybe, but even then, like Ifeel that it will be minimal,
Some elderflower frilly drinkone time.
So that is the trip.
The one thing I did want to sayis that we one whole day on
(12:16):
this trip we played real lifetraders.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Fun.
Which is such a fun?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
thing to do for a birthday, and everyone
participated and it was superfun.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Love that.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
I was chosen as a trader.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
And you know what, in my mind I think that I could be
a trader.
And then, on this trip, Ilearned that I can.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
No, I think you'd be an excellent faithful.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
I would yeah.
Because I understand how peoplewho are traders and would be
strategists would be thinkingCorrect, so I would really be
good at sussing that out.
Yeah, I so.
Sal, our friend Sal, did whatplayed the role of Alan Cumming.
Yeah, and he was the narratorand everything Fun.
He did the whole thing where hewalked around the table a bunch
(13:02):
of times and he picked traders.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Is this a favorite show of cameron's?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
yes, okay okay and we played and I was chosen as a
trader, cameron was chosen as atrader, which we all kind of
like figured, we just likepretended to, not until the end.
And then um hayley's boyfriend,cena Sina, was also chosen.
And I know why I was chosenit's because I am a fan of the
(13:31):
game and I know it.
So you don't want to choosesomeone who's literally never
seen the show before becausethey're not going to really know
how to play.
And so he chose me because ofthe people that know the show.
I think I guess I was the leastlikely to people like be
(13:51):
thinking that I am the traitor.
So we all had to go into rooms.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
I went to my bedroom and I didn't think about the
fact that I'm right next tosomeone who wasn't a traitor.
So every time they, we wouldall go to the rooms and then Sal
would text the traitors and belike, okay, come upstairs.
I had to move so slowly so thatmy door wasn't heard.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
It was played over the course of one day.
Right, this wasn't.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Yeah, we played for like four hours but I had to
move so slowly to open and closethe door so that the person
next to me didn't hear.
It was dan, our friend, dan um.
And so we would go upstairs andwe would talk about who we
wanted to murder, and then wewould tell him that we would go
back to the room and then salwould text the whole group and
be like, okay, come upstairs,and then we would see who was
(14:41):
murdered, and then we playedlittle games that were silly,
like um, things that a bunch ofgay people and girls would know,
like get like, finish these poplyrics and who who facts about
celebrities and whatever.
So like we played little minigames.
(15:02):
And then we had a round tablewhere we voted people off.
I made it probably five or sixrounds and then the person that
turned on me was hayley.
Oh fuck, she turned on me andshe her reasoning was what there
was one round where I was.
I've killed hayley immediately Iknow I should, you should have
(15:24):
but I didn't think she was goingto turn on me because she is,
she doesn't.
She hates when we play, like,um, those types of games like
mafia and stuff, like she doesnot like playing those games.
So I thought she would just bevery timid and just like sit
there and not do much.
But she referenced a time whereI said to her I was like I am
like think, I feel like it couldbe this person, cause I was
(15:50):
just like trying to plant a seedand I was like I think it'd be
this person.
And then that person gotmurdered the next time or a time
after and I, I guess, talk toher again and I was like said
something like oh my God, like Ihad did not.
I thought I literally thoughtthat person was a traitor, like
I didn't think they were goingto get murdered.
And so she, in one of theseround tables, turns on me and
she's like you know what?
I think it's Alison, because Ithink it's weird that you uh
(16:13):
said something about Jake andthen when he got murdered, like
you came straight to me and wewere like, isn't that weird?
I was like Haley, I did that toyou.
I said that to you because youwere the one person I talked to
about it.
I was like that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
I mean I yeah, you're right, that's.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I mean I was like I just talked to you because you
were.
You were the person I said itto.
So, I came, I just like, wastalking to you about it again,
but I was flustered by the factthat she turned on me and
everyone started questioning me.
Then, you know, as they do,like everyone turned to me and I
was like you guys, like I.
I tried to say you guys, I'm afaithful, because you know, when
(16:48):
they say that on TV like it'sso good, I first of all.
We were drinking while thishappened, so every round that
happened, we got moreintoxicated.
And by this time I was a littletipsy and I fumbled the word
faithful and they all were likeit's Alison.
She's a traitor, so I didn't getvoted out that round.
(17:11):
But I got voted out, I think,the round after, and I was so
mad because Haley's boyfriend,who was also a traitor, voted
for me, which he didn't have to.
But he had to he, he didn't,but he did to save himself, like
he could have been like youguys you guys, I I really don't
(17:31):
think it's allison blah, blahblah.
He like there was still time forthat, but he just decided to,
yeah, self-preserve, and hevoted for me and I was not
prepared for it and I liketurned and looked at him kind of
like what the hell?
And I gave it away that he wasa traitor by doing that, because
everyone was like why'd shereact like that, like why does
(17:54):
she care?
So honestly.
But I was like I don't care,you turn on me yeah so anyway,
it was fun.
Highly recommend for yourfriends the faithful win.
The faithfuls did win.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
And Caleb actually, like uh, put up some money for
them, so that was fun and highlyrecommend for your friend group
to do that.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
That is very fun.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
And what a great show .
Speaker 2 (18:18):
Love.
Have you been watching oh?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
yeah, I'm all caught up.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Same, we can talk about it later.
You can tell me about your pasttwo weeks.
A lot has happened very fastand I'm going to be moving this
week, so this is the last timewe'll be here, right, or we'll
have one more, because I have alot of overlap, so we'll be able
to do, I think, a couple morehere, while we figure out the
next setup.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Anyway, nothing else really to report, because I've
just been busy, just keepingbusy and.
I'm not going to talk about myunhinged have you already
started um packing?
I have already started packingand I bought paper plates and
plastic utensils so that I canpack up the kitchen class.
(18:58):
I feel like the kitchen is themost tedious.
The kitchen and the bathroom,for some reason in my head, are
like the worst.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Really.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Yeah, cause it's like there's so many little things
and you're like oh yeah, but itwas opening my cabinets and I
was like do you know how muchstuff is above my refrigerator?
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Yeah, but it is a good opportunity to throw things
away.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
You're right, and the place I'm moving is like double
the square footage, so I willhave more space, which is nice,
um, but that doesn't mean I needto get more things or take
everything.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
No, because you have a storage unit that you can get
rid of now.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
So use the space.
I have a two car garage, though, so that can go into the garage
.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
That's fire.
That's rich, that is rich.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Anyway, so yeah, it's been pretty chill over here, um
, and that's all I'm going tosay on the podcast.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Oh, but I do have news.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Thank you, I've been waiting.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
What.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
What do you think I'm going to say?
Mine's pop culture.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
No, I was just trying to be funny.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Let me look at my list.
I have three things, oh okay.
So first, this is pop culture,music news.
So in the Taylor Nation therewas, so back a while ago, two
songs got leaked from Taylorfrom the Lover era.
Oh okay, she ended up releasingone of them as part of
(20:21):
something.
Poets no, it wasn't part oftorture poets, maybe it was.
Whatever she released.
The other one is called need.
Never released it, okay.
Okay, all of a sudden that, butwe all you can like find the
demo of it, of her singing it,and it's a banger.
All of a sudden this guy startsteasing this song on tiktok.
(20:42):
He has like little to nofollowing but like has the
artwork for it and it's thelover era artwork and it sends
taylor nation into a tizzy forlike 48 hours.
We're all like what ishappening?
Why?
What is this?
Who is this man?
Yeah, when you look him up, hehas released a few songs on
spotify.
He's a songwriter who's writtenfor other artists, okay, and
(21:05):
one of the songs he's recentlyreleased is called Hiss.
So everyone assumes this is aTaylor deep fake.
Like reputations about to beannounced.
Okay, because it's like too manythings and it's like what is,
and then he releases it.
So now we have this version outin the world by this guy that
is a cover, essentially ofTaylor's song.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Oh, okay.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Did he release his?
His has already been out.
Yeah, it released.
Then he released Need.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
And it's a banger.
I downloaded it.
I was like wow, this is reallygood.
And if you look at it onSpotify, it says produced by
Taylor Swift, written by TaylorSwift.
And so everyone was like, andso everyone's like what does
this mean?
Like she's not even talkingabout this.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Taylor Nation goes insane on this man trying to
figure out what's going on, tothe point where he removes it.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
It has nothing to do with Taylor at all, it's he got
a mechanical license to do acover of this song.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
And then it blew up.
So he posts the thing on TikTokand he's basically like you
guys, I did this legally, I wasallowed to do this, but like I'm
going to take it down for asecond because everyone is
freaking out that I lied topeople and I didn't, I was just
like he was doing a publicitystunt.
He was literally like yeah hewas kind of like in the comments
(22:23):
of his own leak he was likecan't wait for Taylor's version.
So people were like, what doyou mean?
Yeah, he did nothing wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
He did it legally.
What's a mechanical license?
Speaker 1 (22:31):
So a mechanical license is what you get to be
able to do a cover.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
How do you get that?
Speaker 1 (22:35):
You're just like when you well.
So in this case he would havehad to get permission from her
because it was unreleased aboutit the legal way and she just
responded like I mean it's likeimagine how many people.
But like, if I wanted to do acover of an already released
taylor song, you just get amechanical license when you
register it, so like I would goto upload it.
(22:55):
It would ask for the originalsongwriters you submit it, then
they have to approve it okay andnine times out of ten it gets
approved that has to be so manypeople a day oh yeah, of course,
and that's someone has to besomeone's full-time job and I'm
sure, like a lot of them, getdenied if the quality isn't good
but, like I've never had amechanical license be denied
(23:15):
work period thank you, celine.
Um so, I just thought that wasso funny that's crazy.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
She's gonna release it now that everyone's like.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
I don't think so, because lover Lover, she owns
Lover.
Lover was the first one thatshe owned after the Scooter.
Yeah, so we're not going to geta Lover Taylor's version, cause
it already is.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Yeah, but she could just release the song.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
It's just so that era .
If you listen to it it's likeshe could, she won't.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
I don't think she will Just as a random, like
single.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
No, what would be a really fun like this is how much
I love my fans move would befor her to like do a duet
version with this guy Cause helike didn't do anything wrong
and it was so good.
So it's not come back on theSpotify yet, but I'm keeping an
eye out cause I liked it.
It was really good.
You should listen to it.
(24:08):
I think you vibe, I guess, lover, I guess if you say that I can
pick up the vibe, but is itpoppy like?
Is it fast or is it slow?
Fast, okay, let me see if I canplay a little cup of it.
But the other thing, while thisloads is so, when I was in a
boy band we did a cover of breakfree by aria grande.
We performed this song and Ihave had it stuck in my head,
but it's it's funny because it'sbeen brought to my attention
multiple times by anyone that'slistened to.
It's been brought to myattention multiple times by
anyone that's listened to itthat the way that I sing the
(24:29):
first verse is like oh no soundslike a slur, so it's.
If you want to take it.
I should have said it before.
Try to hide it, fake it.
But the way that I sing, fakeit it sounds like the f sounds
like the f, sl, and now it's allI can say when I'm singing it.
Well, I mean you can say it itpopped up as a memory and I was
(24:49):
watching it.
I was watching the performanceand I was like, yeah, I am 100%
saying the F slur.
Anyway, you be the judge.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Well, you can't get in trouble because you can say
it.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
True, but you know, okay, here's what you released.
The song is not available dueto circumstances that I, due to
criticism that I've beenreceiving lately for making a
cover song, which millions ofpeople have done and still do, I
have decided to remove needcompletely.
I received the mechanicallicense to make this cover song
and have never once said I wastaylor or her team, which he
didn't, but he was also likeplaying with people yeah however
(25:21):
, speculations and clowning gotway out of hand, which caused
many people speculating andspreading false information
around and purposefully twistingthings, and for that I've
decided this.
I appreciate all the supportthat you have given me and I
hope to enjoy, if you enjoy,future music that I put out
steven and it sucks, because itwas good oh, so it sounds like
he's not gonna put it back up hehad.
He originally said he was, andit seems that he's not part of
me also wonders if that means hedid get like legally.
(25:43):
They were like they got too bigand her team may have been like
okay bro yeah, but I feel likeif you get a mechanical license,
they can't they can't.
Yeah, renee can be like justkidding it got.
It's too popular like whatmechanical, like the cover
artist gets nothing.
Yeah, like it all goes to theoriginal artist.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Yeah, anyway that is like a fun saga to follow.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
It is, and it was like all my attention for two
days.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
That's so funny.
I saw none of it.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
That is funny.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Like not even a single, a single video, yep.
So it's just so crazy howthings can be happening on the
internet While Depending on whatsite, and people can have no
clue, none.
Well, speaking of the internet,dizzy um asap rocky was
(26:37):
acquitted I saw that whichseemed like launch over and
tackle rihanna oh yeah hilariouswild.
It is wild and good, I guessyeah, I didn't really like look
into it because I was.
Where was I, I don't know.
It was like early in themorning, was I still in mexico,
I don't know, but I so I didn'treally get to read too much into
(27:00):
it.
So let me just look up reallyquickly.
So he was being charged withtwo felony counts of assault
with a semi-automatic firearm,um, in which a former friend
said the rapper shot at him inhollywood, grazing his knuckles.
So he pled not guilty, rejecteda plea deal that would have
(27:20):
involved very little jail timeand opted not to testify during
the case.
Okay, so the jurors decided ittook the jury of seven women and
five men roughly three hours todecide the case, finding Rocky
not guilty of the two felonies.
They could decide Rocky was notguilty because he only fired
blanks from a prop gun takenfrom a music video set, as the
(27:42):
defense argued, or in that heacted in self-defense.
They could simply decide that,oh, this is what they could.
They could, that was what hehis defense was arguing that it
was a prop gun that he took froma music video.
And, um, there, they said thatthere was too much reasonable
doubt to convict.
So ASAP rallies.
(28:05):
Testimony made up the bulk ofthe prosecution's case.
One surveillance camerarecorded the sound of the shots
being fired, another partiallycaptured a scuffle shortly
before the shooting, and anothervideo showed, uh, the incident
itself, though the frame withinthe view was small, blurry and
far from definitive, so it lookslike they just didn't have
enough physical evidence to showit that they just had this
(28:28):
guy's testimony, and so, beyondreasonable doubt, I guess, wins
again wow but yeah, he launchedhimself over.
Did he get in trouble by the?
They were like quiet down, getback here, yeah, I was like.
I feel like the judge would nothave liked that.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
No, but speaking of courts, you saw diddy's lawyer
quit.
I did.
Did you also know his lawyerwas osama bin laden's lawyer?
Speaker 2 (28:57):
I just learned literally that today how the
hell's osama bin laden's lawyergonna quit.
And also, when was this and whydid he have a lawyer here?
Yeah, I don't know what was thecontext of this.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
That I don't know, it's just the like.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Diddy and Osama bin Laden's lawyer.
We're through line Okay, okay,okay.
How do I find this Attorney whodefended Osama bin Laden quits
sex trafficking case?
Anthony Rico, one of Sean DiddyCombs defense attorneys, has
(29:37):
sorry, has filed to withdrawfrom the hip hop moguls case,
sparking a wave of speculationdiscussions online.
Um, although I've provided SeanCombs with a high level of
legal representation, under nocircumstances can I continue to
effectively serve as counsel forsean combs consistent with the
aba standards for criminaljustice.
Okay, get me to the why obl thisattorney defended none other
(30:02):
than osama bin lad in the UScourt after World Trade Center
bombing.
He was here.
What?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
We were 11.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Weren't we trying to find him for so long?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
Yeah, yeah, zero Dark Thirty, Hello, great movie.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Bryce Dallas Howard.
No no way, no way.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
With such confidence.
You said that it's not Bryce.
One more try.
It's Jessica Chastain, Jessica.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
Chastain.
There's no way I will ever beable to tell the difference
between them.
My eyes are watering.
That's funny, okay, how wasAnthony Rico Osama's lawyer?
I feel like chat gbt couldanswer this anthony rico is a
(30:50):
veteran criminal defense defenseattorney known for taking some
of the most high profile andcontroversial cases
controversial cases, why can't Italk?
In 2001, he served as part ofthe legal team defending osama
bin laden.
In that capacity, rico Ricoargued that bin Laden shouldn't
be prosecuted because he was notpresent in the US at the time
and thus couldn't effectivelydefend himself under US law.
(31:11):
The stance was one of severalRico's career that highlights
his willingness to representclients involved in the most
challenging, contentious legalbattles.
So there was a time in whichbin Laden was in the Us on trial
, and then he left, and then wewere searching for him was it
pre-9-11 for something else?
Speaker 1 (31:31):
this is in 2001 okay, well, hell, if I know how did
we get him?
Speaker 2 (31:35):
there's plot holes in our history, sorry okay, so
this says osama bin laden wasindicted by the us authorities
following september 11th attacks, as part of the government's
broad effort to hold thosebehind terrorism accountable.
He was charged fororchestrating attacks and
supporting terrorism, where theindictments were issued in 1998
and again in 2001.
However, bin laden was nevercaptured or brought within us
jurisdiction.
(31:56):
Okay, so they had him on trialwhen he wasn't here, so he was
probably like okay, right, I'lldefend this guy um, but zero
dark 30 is a good movie, so youguys should watch it yes, it is
uh
Speaker 1 (32:10):
with jessica chastain and it is christina hendrix
best performance christinahendrix, who's that?
Speaker 2 (32:16):
just another redhead that you would confuse there is
a girl who is in that movie, whois also in lioness, oh, oh,
doing the same thing.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Oh really.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
She just like is playing the.
She's like a us official.
Yeah, just like this lady justkeeps getting cast as the same
character.
Good for her.
Um, but I finished lioness andI liked it, so I recommend okay,
are you, did you finish younger?
Speaker 1 (32:43):
I finished younger.
What are your thoughts.
Here's my thoughts.
Here's what I actually thinkhappened.
I think younger kept gettingrenewed and they didn't think
they were going to.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
So they kept trying to end it.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
I think the last two seasons.
So first of all, my favoritecharacter in the whole show.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Marketing yes.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Whatever her name is, the I don't remember her
character.
The bestie calls her Diva.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
Diva yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Oh, my God.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
What is her name?
Speaker 1 (33:07):
You know who I'm talking about, though.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Liza's boss.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
I think she was like okay, I'm really sick of this
show getting renewed, Becausewhen she gets married, then she
only appears one more time in avideo call.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
Yeah, it's a FaceTime .
It's like I'm really lovingItaly.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Loving Italy, I'm going to stay.
It's like, yeah, your characterwould never but okay, um, and I
loved her.
Like her comic relief wasreally like refreshing to me.
I also loved the commitment tolike that bit, that her bit
never changed, the large, gaudynecklaces and the attitude was
this it was the only characterthat just was consistently that
(33:41):
you end up hating Charles, whichis like oh my God, yeah, fine
with me.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
I.
I think the the besty, the like, uh jewish lesbian girl, I
think she was the same the wholetime.
She too, right I?
Speaker 1 (33:52):
think she became way more likable, like she went from
being a supporting character toalmost like a lead yeah um, I
think it's funny that, like I, Ithink what must have happened
too is, like in the testing forthe last seasons, because I know
how that stuff goes I thinkpeople really resonated with her
because, like, come on, what doyou mean?
She just goes there and getsherself a job.
She just like takes the placeof this marketing executive.
(34:15):
I'm her eyes and ears.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Anyway.
So I think the last seasonspecifically, they were like
okay what do we do?
Let's put Liza in a precarioussituation again, where the
signals get crossed and she ismade to look like a fucking
idiot and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and then it ends and
(34:42):
literally like, oh, it's theseason finale.
Wow, there's like nothingbuilding up here.
So what's about to happen?
Yeah if you haven't seen it,plug your ears.
It ends literally.
I was like this can't be thelast scene.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
This cannot be the last yeah, it's so unceremonious
in the bar, you know yeah therecreation of when her and josh
raising the shoe, yeah, yeahyeah, and I'm just like and then
they're like not together,right they're?
Speaker 1 (35:04):
They're not together.
Here is how the show could havebeen exponentially better at
the end.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
It was set up like like a fucking um Darren Chris
show or Darren.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
Star.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
They're in star show.
It was like a sex in the city,just a little cornier, but like
devil wears Prada-esque, whereit's like they could have
literally had that scene andthen done a one minute montage
of like six months from now,where there's literally no
dialogue.
It's just one of those likeanthematic song where they just
pan shot across each of theirlives and they show hillary duff
(35:41):
in la like running the new, hernew thing that she's doing in
la.
Yeah, liza.
Liza and Josh like on avacation together.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Yeah, their wedding.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
Like in a home, but you see, like a wedding photo.
Yeah, lesbian redhead hotfriend like doing some boss shit
.
Yeah, charles, like hanging outwith his daughters.
I don't know, they could havedone one minute it could have
just been a quick, sweeping shotthat would have literally tied
it all up and been like a nice.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Couldn't they also have just recreated this scene
of her and Josh meeting and themjust being like it was always
you?
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
And just kiss.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Because they did that four other times throughout the
show.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Where Josh was, like you've always been there.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
Yeah.
Yes, it could have been Justmake it like her being like yes,
you're right, it was always you.
We love each other.
We're kissing and then a littlemontage.
Yeah, I agree, it was veryunceremonious.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
When I get to audition for Darren Star one day
.
I'm going to be like thank youfor seeing this audition.
Can we have a chat?
Because, look, I loved and lookit's put, it's reignited this
like love for Hilary Duff and methat I've always had.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
I've been relisting to her albums.
I think we really slept on heras a pop princess.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Oh my gosh.
That video has been viral ofher doing her little booty shake
.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
I've now been listening to podcasts where
she's a guest, so I justlistened to her on um your.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
Josh Peck.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Yeah, it was from like two years ago.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
Yeah, oh, I watched it when it came out immediately,
don't worry, it's just like butshe's like the most likable
person ever.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
Yeah, she is America's sweetheart and is pure
and just like, living her life,doing her thing, being like.
Yeah, I love music.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
I would like to watch the series bunheads that um is
features sutton foster.
I watched this when it came outum in what year?
I just saw it was older it wasfeatured on hulu, or yeah, it
just became featured on hulu.
I watched this.
What year?
2012?
It's a.
So the description is bunheadstells a fish out of water story
(37:52):
where michelle sims, a oncepromising, classically chained
professional dancer who wasdrawn to the lights of las vegas
where she became a showgirl.
After she impulsively marriesher persistent suitor, she moves
to sleepy to sleepy Californiacoastal town where he lives with
his mother.
Fanny, herself a former dancer,now runs a local dance studio.
Michelle ends up bonding withsome of Fanny's students after
(38:14):
meeting them.
Among the students is Sweet Boo, who struggles with her body
type.
Rebellious Sasha, who hastalent to be a ballet dancer but
doesn't have a heart in itbecause of family issues.
Shapely Jenny, who's notcomfortable in her own skin.
And fun-loving Melanie, readyfor whatever life throws at her.
The students benefit fromMichelle's knowledge, but she
also benefits from them, as theyhelp her adapt to small town
(38:36):
life.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
All I got from that is how insulting it is to call
someone shapely.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
Yeah, that's crazy is to call someone shapely.
Yeah, that's crazy Okay so no,I'm not going to watch that.
That's a IMDb or RottenTomatoes description.
But, yeah, she is a Vegasshowgirl that moves to this
small town and she startsteaching at the dance studio,
and I sure watched it when itcame out Great.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
It also is just another reminder that is Sutton
Foster, the busiest woman inshow business.
She's doing theater, she'sdoing movies, she's doing the TV
shows.
Like I forgot too until I was Iwas rewatching A Year in the
Life Gilmore Girls that she isin an episode of that with her,
then husband, what's his name?
Who is not gay, apparently theguy that's.
(39:23):
He was also in Younger.
He had a cameo in younger.
He played like the poor magazineeditor who she kind of dates,
but he's always like stealingfood from parties cause he
doesn't have food at home.
Oh, and then I barely rememberthat he is the one that writes
the article about her, heractual age.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Do you?
How does that happen?
Is it just like my husbandwants?
Or we have this character andshe's like my husband will do it
?
Speaker 1 (39:48):
They do so much stuff together and they've remained
best friends since their divorce.
And he is the original Emmettin Legally Blonde on Broadway.
He was in oh, did you watch?
Let Me Be your Star.
What was that Smash?
I watched like the verybeginning beginning I never
finished it okay play the gayman, so again work but not all
(40:12):
theater.
Men are gay, I guess well, thefew that aren't really, they get
the pick they get the pick ofthe litter of whatever they get
the pick of the litter indeed,anyway.
So, yes, younger's done,finally.
And now I'm on to like well,white Lotus just started again.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
I started it.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Did you watch the newest episode?
Speaker 2 (40:30):
I did not watch last night's.
I've only seen the firstepisode.
Speaker 1 (40:32):
Spoiler alerts.
I'm not going to talk about thesecond episode to you, but I am
going to say that I don't knowwhy Mike White always has to
throw like a little somethingthat's just like a little icky,
into each season brothers andsisters.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
They were being weird about the sister too, and I
don't.
Yes, and this is not a spoil,but the episode opens.
Episode two opens with a shotof schwarzenegger's like naked
body in bed and the brother, hislittle brother, looks at him so
it's the little brother that'sthe weird one, because there was
a conversation where at thebeginning that was like brothers
(41:08):
and sisters can't sleep, likedon't sleep in the same room
anymore, and I thought thatSchwarzenegger was the weird one
.
Speaker 1 (41:17):
So it's the younger one that is like, and I'm just
like, are we going to find outhe's not his biological brother?
And then he's going to make amove on it.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
It's just the way he looked at him.
Speaker 1 (41:30):
He was literally like yeah, the whole time josh and I
have been like hate this, hatethis feeling, stop it, stop it.
I do love the gossipy lorecoming out now about patrick
schwarzenegger being closetedgay and that his boyfriend
wasn't like allowed to come tothe premiere because he's like
trying to keep his closeted lifecloseted.
Otherwise, the show is good.
Like I'm excited about it.
Episode two was really good.
It's just I also always forgetthis is one of those shows
that's honestly better to giveit a couple weeks so you can
(41:51):
binge it, because 60% of theshow is just really artsy, slow
panning shots of somethingthat's happening.
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
Okay, because I have not seen season one or two.
Speaker 1 (42:01):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (42:02):
So I'm coming into the universe cold.
Speaker 1 (42:05):
Oh, so you don't know the lore of also how Mike White
was on Survivor.
No, mike White.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
No, but that name is familiar and that's probably why
.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
So he is the creator of the show.
He was on Survivor.
He's also an actor.
He wrote and was in the movieSchool of Rock, like he's famous
.
Oh yeah, I saw him on survivoryeah, he puts his survivor cast
mates in every season but, onlyfor like a background style like
cameo okay so natalie from hisseason oh, yeah, was in the
(42:37):
first episode.
She was the woman that went andsat at the table and then the
lead actress, black woman likelooks over at her and, like they
, smile at each other in thefirst episode.
Speaker 2 (42:46):
How did I miss that?
Speaker 1 (42:47):
I don't know, but that's Natalie.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
So it's always like look out who's in the first two
seasons.
Speaker 1 (42:53):
The first season is.
You'd have to look it up.
I don't remember who it is.
Speaker 2 (42:57):
I mean, I would know if I saw his face, but anyway,
so he always puts his cast mateswhich is another fun piece of
lore.
Speaker 1 (43:03):
But the show is such beauty shots and like you need
to.
I mean, jennifer Coolidge isiconic, you must.
I mean I love it.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
It wasn't that I didn't want to, I just never got
around to it because we hadjust finished lioness.
We were like we have alsostarted the penguin, which we I
don't know why we startedanother show in tandem with this
.
But he, josh, is a fan of thewhite Lotus in general, so he
was like should we watch it?
And I said I've never seen.
But yeah, and I wanted to watchbecause of Lisa.
Speaker 1 (43:34):
Yeah, so, oh, my God, she's doing great.
She's such a good actress.
Speaker 2 (43:37):
Yeah, I didn't put to , I didn't know it was in
Thailand.
So then when the opening itstarted in Thailand, I was like
that's why Lisa's in it, becauseshe's Thai, and yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:47):
Um, so that's great.
I also did you watch the SAGawards yesterday?
I didn't, so be aware, and it'spretty much you'd expect.
Everyone that wanted the globeglobes basically want except
timothy did win the best actorand he gave a great speech like
well deserved.
(44:07):
It was also much shorter andkristin bell is such a great
hostess so like they did, like agossip girl bit with leet and
meester I heard that they didthat.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
That's fun um.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
She sang like a medley in the beginning do you
want to be an actor instead of.
Do you want to be a?
Do you want to build a snowman?
Speaker 2 (44:19):
I like that.
I'll look that part up.
I just was like do people watchthis awards show Like I didn't?
I didn't think that anyonecared.
Speaker 1 (44:24):
It was really produced in a way that seemed
like to me it was producedbetter than the Golden Globes,
like it was entertaining.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (44:31):
Um.
Speaker 2 (44:32):
I honestly didn't even know they were happening to
be really honest.
Speaker 1 (44:35):
It was like live on Netflix.
How would you even know that?
Speaker 2 (44:38):
I didn't Right but, and then I was like oh, no one's
watching this for sure, but Iwill go back and watch that,
because I do love Kristen Bell.
Speaker 1 (44:45):
And Jane Fonda got the Lifetime Achievement Award
and her speech was really good,like the speeches were really
good in this one.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
I saw that, Timothy like his outfit.
Speaker 1 (45:06):
It was looked really good, it was really cool.
But anyway, sag awards nowwe're fine.
Speaker 2 (45:07):
Finally we're to the oscars.
Yeah, is that this sunday?
It's this sunday.
Yeah, wait, it was yesterday.
When this episode comes out,they will have already happened.
Okay, oh right, so I did end upwatching conclave oh, you did.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
Now I have one today, or it wanted the sag awards I
was not prepared for this movie.
Speaker 2 (45:19):
What?
Speaker 1 (45:19):
do you mean?
Speaker 2 (45:19):
like it just like took a turn a twist really that
I just like didn't I couldn't,yeah, I thought it was good.
It's very artsy and yeah youknow, kind of slow.
I mean it's.
How crazy could it be with, youknow, cardinals in the vatican?
It wasn't that wild, yeah, butit.
(45:39):
I mean I had no idea what wasgoing to happen and it it took
me by surprise it won not.
Best picture won something,though, at the sag awards I have
to watch it, I want to see itand like the, the guy that is
like becomes like a integralpart of it.
(46:02):
He's like not an actor at all.
I don't.
I looked him up and it was justlike he's just like a regular
working guy.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
That just got put in this movie.
That happens sometimes.
Speaker 2 (46:14):
Yeah, but I, I, yeah, I think you should watch it.
It is just like it's slow.
It's not like it's slow, it'snot like it's not like any other
movie I've seen.
It's just, it's very artsy andslow and I'll check it out
whatever, but I enjoyed it andwe are going to watch the
substance this week.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
Oh good, please let me know how, so we you got to
actually talk about it.
Yeah, um, she won demi more oneat the sack.
The other thing, that one thatwas shocking for everyone, was
um best ensemble in a comedyseries went to um, only murders
in the building.
And when they announced them,selena gomez was truly shocked
(46:52):
and she went up there because,no, none of the other cast was
there except mom shannon and shewas like sorry like we've never
won, so I was not expectingthis.
and she was like sorry, likewe've never won, so I was not
expecting this.
And she was like Steve andMartin they're not here because
they don't care.
Speaker 2 (47:05):
It was so good.
That's funny.
She, um, her and Benny are justeverywhere all at once.
Yep, and they're cute.
Speaker 1 (47:17):
I guess I don't have thoughts on benny blanco I don't
honestly writes every song everso talented man for him, zoe
saldaña.
One like all the ones you'dexpect I um.
Speaker 2 (47:33):
Another show that I've started watching is
paradise.
Have you seen this?
No I am very invested in thisshow so the premise is uh, the
world ends, like you know, likethey tell us, it's going to the,
the climate and the fires andthe natural disasters, whatever
that happens.
(47:53):
But this billionaire lady umwants to save initially, her
like thing is that she wants tosave her family.
So she uh funds this buildingof this city under um, these
mountains, somewhere.
Oh she hires all thesearchitects and scientists and
(48:14):
whatever to make it so that theycan live underground and umames
marsden plays the president.
So he was a president in reallife and then they made him the
president under oh under thecity what is this on hulu oh?
And um sterling k brown, Ithink his name.
(48:37):
He is the main character heplays um one of his secret
service agents, and I've onlyseen like three episodes, so I'm
still learning the background,but it's so interesting to me
they've created this whole fakeworld under this mountain with
and it kind of looks it's likehunger games s, because it's
like a dome of basically likeLED screens or whatever that
(49:02):
make it daytime, oh yeah, yeah,and then it's sunset and then
it's nighttime.
They have like fake sounds ofbirds and all these things.
And I don't know they wearthese bracelets that tell them
when to do things so I don'tlike that part.
Speaker 1 (49:21):
People are in there, would you say hundreds oh, it's
it's very big.
Speaker 2 (49:26):
They like, uh, picked families and stuff and people
because they they obviously theworld ended, so they need to
have babies and they can't havepeople who, like everyone who's
related, basically, um.
But then the premise and thisis not really a spoiler, cause
it happens in the very beginningof the first episode James
Marsden gets murdered, so thepresident dies and they're
(49:49):
trying to find out what happened.
But I'm very invested, it's sogood and I just saw that they
got renewed for a second season.
Speaker 1 (49:56):
And then that is all I need to know to execute
watching it myself.
Speaker 2 (50:00):
You should watch it.
That's good.
Good, rex.
Yeah, I guess this episode isjust us talking about what we're
watching.
Well, yeah, pop culture, sowait.
One more thing is have you beenwatching the POV TikToks?
I think I sent you some.
Speaker 1 (50:14):
I have watched the Titanic, one that you sent me,
and then I saw that you made one.
Speaker 2 (50:17):
I can't stop, they're everywhere.
So you guys.
Speaker 1 (50:21):
It's like your ASMR.
Speaker 2 (50:23):
Yeah, and so someone started making these AI videos
that make it a POV that you'vewoken up somewhere and there are
a lot of them are bad.
It's like you wake up themorning of the eruption of
Pompeii.
You wake up on the.
Titanic.
You wake up the morning of theeruption of pompeii.
You wake up on the titanic.
Speaker 1 (50:41):
You wake up um I saw one that was like you wake up in
the lost city of atlantis yeah,most of them are disasters.
Speaker 2 (50:50):
You woke up the morning of the atomic bomb
dropping in hiroshima like it iswild.
And there's all these scenesthat ai has created of what the
like day would look like forsomeone like that.
They aren't really accurate,but it's like you wake up in
your bed and one of the Salemwitch trials I've been to the
Salem witch trials and it's likeshe wakes up and then she like
(51:13):
makes bread and then they go tochurch and then there's like men
pointing at her and then shegoes to trial and then she gets
hung.
Like it's like wild.
So, yeah, I made one just to befunny, because that is fine I
needed content.
Yeah, but that's been my wholetimeline love that and that's
another example of this is allI'm seeing and I've talked to
(51:35):
people like when I did that POVvideo I was telling Haley and
she was like I don't know whatyou're talking about.
Speaker 1 (51:43):
Like she had not seen a single one.
Speaker 2 (51:45):
And I was like this is every single video that I'm
seeing, so that's also what I'vebeen watching is POV disaster
videos.
Speaker 1 (51:53):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (51:55):
Also, just before I get to the birthdays, I just
need you guys to know that I infact did go to the pokemon go
event in los angeles didn't evenknow that was a thing I uh
caleb and hayley.
I am not a big pokemon goer Iplayed in 2016.
pokemon head played in 2016 wheneveryone else was and then when
(52:17):
we were on tour two years ago,I started playing again with
Caleb and Haley because we werenew cities and it was like a fun
thing to do on the car ridesand whatever, and then I stopped
again.
They never stopped.
They are constantly Saturdaymornings going on Poke walks and
catching them all.
There was a big Pokemon eventthis weekend that apparently
(52:37):
there was only two in the worldhappening at the same time.
One was, I think Caleb said,like Taipei, and then Los
Angeles at the Rose Bowl, andthey got invited as like
influencer, content creators,because they're big into playing
it.
I went with our friend, kyleHanagami, who choreographed Mean
Girls.
He had me as his plus one, so Iwent as like kind of a content
(53:01):
creator.
I really didn't have to postanything.
I did, but I didn't have to andwe got like vip access.
But when I tell you, so manypeople, hundreds and hundreds,
probably thousands of peoplewere in the rose bowl just
walking around looking at theirphone, catching them them all.
I got to meet Pikachu.

to the beach club and like I waspicturing a beach club from I

hats and things, and what Iwalked into was just men in
(03:57):
thongs.
Oh, yeah.
And I said this is a gay beachclub and I was very happy to be
there, but I just like had noidea what I was going into and
it was so many men, just men.
I think that me and Haley andLacey Cameron's sister, I think
(04:21):
those we were the only womenthat I saw in a radius literally
, and we walked into like all ofour friends being shwasty
already because they had beenthere for like four hours
already.
Okay, okay, okay and we werejust like whoa, how do we
navigate this?
Yeah, we can't get.
There's no way to catch up toyou, right?
Everyone's wild like.
(04:42):
One of our friends was vomitingover the like.
It was crazy, um, but verybeautiful.
That was the first day and thenwe uh, most days we just like
got up, we had a lunch, we satby the pool.
But let me tell you, tell me.
I have not consumed alcohollike this, I think, ever but did
(05:05):
you get sick?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
In my life, the last night I did oh the worst time to
get it.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I know, but honestly, drinking at the house I never
really felt super drunk.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
But I was drinking a lot.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Just because it was spaced out.
So you just had a consistentbuzz going, but I was drinking a
lot.
Just because it was spaced out,maybe.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
The night that we went out to the bars.
I felt more drunk then.
So I don't know if there's acorrelation, but we just had
ordered bottles of alcohol, itwasn't anything special, and
then we went out.
I don't know if the bar drinkswere made differently or just
(05:47):
like using like really reallybad Watered down Alcohol, like
really really like cheap, but weweren't drinking like whatever.
That.
1942, is that what it is?
46, 42?
Don Julio, the big brown bottle.
I know that's really expensive.
1942?
1942, don Julio, the big brownbottle.
I know that's really expensive.
1942 sounds right, but the big,that big like brown bottle.
(06:08):
That's like the bougie bottle.
It wasn't like we were drinkingthat, but we weren't drinking
like the worst tequila you couldever drink in life.
So I don't know, but I wasdrinking.
I haven't drank like that, Ithink, ever, and in that many
days yeah I am not okay rightnow, like emotionally I have now
(06:29):
recovered.
Physically, okay, good, butemotionally like I'm not okay.
I don't again, don't know whenthe next time I will drink it.
It's like I am a changed person.
I look back.
I looked back after we leftbecause, okay, the last night
I'm getting ahead of myself wewere taking shots I mean, it was
lunchtime, but it was not toolong after waking up because we,
(06:51):
we didn't have like formalbreakfast okay um, we were, you
know, going to bed late, wakingup like nine, somewhere between
nine and ten, and then, uh,lunch was at 11 every day, so we
would have lunch and it wouldbe mimosa.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Whoa.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
It would be like here's a mimosa or here's like a
coffee with Bailey's in it,like it's insane.
And then, as soon as it was, assoon as lunch was over and
people like were by the pool,immediate tequila shot.
It was wild.
And and then it was like drinks, drinks, and then an hour later
, another tequila shot.
It was like so many shots werehappening.
(07:29):
I think the staff was likethese people are insane, like
what is happening.
I feel like during the days Iwasn't drinking that much
because I just like I didn'tfeel that I needed to because
I'm already not a big drinker,but I was playing a part, I feel
(07:50):
so by the end of the weekcaught up to me in the other
night, before we left, I woke upin the middle of the night
vomiting.
Now let me tell you, tell me, Idon't like bugs.
We know, we know this.
Maybe you guys don't know this.
I don't like bugs, smallcreatures, bugs.
We know, we know this.
Maybe you guys don't know this.
I don't like bugs, smallcreatures, small things that
move quickly.
I don't like that includesrodents.
That includes cockroaches well,let me get to the cockroach.
(08:12):
But first when, when josh wasstill there, there was a lizard
on our bed one night and Ididn't like that because it was
moving fast.
He picked it up and removed it.
That was fine.
So the night I woke up sick andI just left the lights off and
(08:35):
I vomited.
And then I saw a figure in thecorner Wait, man-sized,
small-sized, got it and I saidwhat's that?
So I turned on the light andthere was a cockroach.
And now I'm alone because Joshleft on a few days earlier.
Yeah, I was alone and I didn'tknow what to do, right?
(08:56):
So I?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
Screamed.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
No, because it was like 3 am.
So I woke up in the middle ofthe night.
There was a glass in thebathroom that I put on top and
it was a heavy glass, so it wasweighted.
I don't think.
I didn't think the cockroachcould move okay so I just put it
there.
I heard giggling outside of mydoor so I opened and I walked
(09:19):
out and I saw who it was.
This was not someone that couldhelp me with the cockroach, but
I tried anyway.
It was Haley and Caleb and theywere doing their, their
giggling Haley and Caleb thing.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
It's 3am.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Everyone's in bed, they sit up, and I said you guys
, there's a cockroach, can youhelp me get it?
And they just stared at me andsaid you know what, never mind.
And I just turned and left, andso I just left it under the uh
glass and I went back to sleepand then I woke up and it was
(09:55):
probably an hour later to throwup again.
Oh okay and it was next to thetoilet and I just like said
we're doing this together.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
And it was still there in the cup.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
It was still there in the cup and I just vomited next
to him and I was like all right, I guess this is what we're
doing tonight.
And so I just said please behere Like, please don't leave,
Please stay under the glass.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
Just stay under the glass, stay with me.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
And then we left the next day.
So staff take care of it andsorry to them but I don't.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
I don't do that.
I would be more concerned aboutthe lizard coming back.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Yeah, I mean it was very small as a little guy, but
still, yeah, I mean every nightI was checking the bed to make
sure.
There was not another one, butthat was that.
And then I got home and Ithought to myself why, why did
you do that, like you could havehad fun with your friends and
and just not participated in theamount of alcohol that was?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
I mean I'm more like no, but on the last night that's
like when I would have a hardno, cause you don't want to fly
feeling sick.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Which I did, you did, I wasn't.
I did have a a whole row tomyself, which was very nice.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Wow, that's a blessing.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
I don't know how that happened, but that was really
like.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
By the grace of God.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Literally, I was so thankful for that.
I had a bad time and I, just Iwas like I don't know why you
participated in that amount ofdrinking.
You don't drink literally ever.
There are weeks that go by inlife that I do not consume a
single drop of alcohol, rightand and I don't usually like to
(11:33):
be drunk like I like a craftcocktail dinner.
You know, I'll try somethingnew, but I'm not trying like I
don't like the feeling of beingsuper drunk yeah more than a few
times a year.
So I to myself, I was like youare need to be reformed.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Born again.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
And I've had so much water over the past week and
half and I don't know when thenext time I will drink is, and
that is my declaration, maybeyour birthday.
Maybe, but even then, like Ifeel that it will be minimal,
Some elderflower frilly drinkone time.
So that is the trip.
The one thing I did want to sayis that we one whole day on
(12:16):
this trip we played real lifetraders.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Fun.
Which is such a fun?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
thing to do for a birthday, and everyone
participated and it was superfun.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
Love that.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
I was chosen as a trader.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
And you know what, in my mind I think that I could be
a trader.
And then, on this trip, Ilearned that I can.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
No, I think you'd be an excellent faithful.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
I would yeah.
Because I understand how peoplewho are traders and would be
strategists would be thinkingCorrect, so I would really be
good at sussing that out.
Yeah, I so.
Sal, our friend Sal, did whatplayed the role of Alan Cumming.
Yeah, and he was the narratorand everything Fun.
He did the whole thing where hewalked around the table a bunch
(13:02):
of times and he picked traders.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Is this a favorite show of cameron's?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
yes, okay okay and we played and I was chosen as a
trader, cameron was chosen as atrader, which we all kind of
like figured, we just likepretended to, not until the end.
And then um hayley's boyfriend,cena Sina, was also chosen.
And I know why I was chosenit's because I am a fan of the
(13:31):
game and I know it.
So you don't want to choosesomeone who's literally never
seen the show before becausethey're not going to really know
how to play.
And so he chose me because ofthe people that know the show.
I think I guess I was the leastlikely to people like be
(13:51):
thinking that I am the traitor.
So we all had to go into rooms.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
I went to my bedroom and I didn't think about the
fact that I'm right next tosomeone who wasn't a traitor.
So every time they, we wouldall go to the rooms and then Sal
would text the traitors and belike, okay, come upstairs.
I had to move so slowly so thatmy door wasn't heard.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
It was played over the course of one day.
Right, this wasn't.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Yeah, we played for like four hours but I had to
move so slowly to open and closethe door so that the person
next to me didn't hear.
It was dan, our friend, dan um.
And so we would go upstairs andwe would talk about who we
wanted to murder, and then wewould tell him that we would go
back to the room and then salwould text the whole group and
be like, okay, come upstairs,and then we would see who was
(14:41):
murdered, and then we playedlittle games that were silly,
like um, things that a bunch ofgay people and girls would know,
like get like, finish these poplyrics and who who facts about
celebrities and whatever.
So like we played little minigames.
(15:02):
And then we had a round tablewhere we voted people off.
I made it probably five or sixrounds and then the person that
turned on me was hayley.
Oh fuck, she turned on me andshe her reasoning was what there
was one round where I was.
I've killed hayley immediately Iknow I should, you should have
(15:24):
but I didn't think she was goingto turn on me because she is,
she doesn't.
She hates when we play, like,um, those types of games like
mafia and stuff, like she doesnot like playing those games.
So I thought she would just bevery timid and just like sit
there and not do much.
But she referenced a time whereI said to her I was like I am
like think, I feel like it couldbe this person, cause I was
(15:50):
just like trying to plant a seedand I was like I think it'd be
this person.
And then that person gotmurdered the next time or a time
after and I, I guess, talk toher again and I was like said
something like oh my God, like Ihad did not.
I thought I literally thoughtthat person was a traitor, like
I didn't think they were goingto get murdered.
And so she, in one of theseround tables, turns on me and
she's like you know what?
I think it's Alison, because Ithink it's weird that you uh
(16:13):
said something about Jake andthen when he got murdered, like
you came straight to me and wewere like, isn't that weird?
I was like Haley, I did that toyou.
I said that to you because youwere the one person I talked to
about it.
I was like that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
I mean I yeah, you're right, that's.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I mean I was like I just talked to you because you
were.
You were the person I said itto.
So, I came, I just like, wastalking to you about it again,
but I was flustered by the factthat she turned on me and
everyone started questioning me.
Then, you know, as they do,like everyone turned to me and I
was like you guys, like I.
I tried to say you guys, I'm afaithful, because you know, when
(16:48):
they say that on TV like it'sso good, I first of all.
We were drinking while thishappened, so every round that
happened, we got moreintoxicated.
And by this time I was a littletipsy and I fumbled the word
faithful and they all were likeit's Alison.
She's a traitor, so I didn't getvoted out that round.
(17:11):
But I got voted out, I think,the round after, and I was so
mad because Haley's boyfriend,who was also a traitor, voted
for me, which he didn't have to.
But he had to he, he didn't,but he did to save himself, like
he could have been like youguys you guys, I I really don't
(17:31):
think it's allison blah, blahblah.
He like there was still time forthat, but he just decided to,
yeah, self-preserve, and hevoted for me and I was not
prepared for it and I liketurned and looked at him kind of
like what the hell?
And I gave it away that he wasa traitor by doing that, because
everyone was like why'd shereact like that, like why does
(17:54):
she care?
So honestly.
But I was like I don't care,you turn on me yeah so anyway,
it was fun.
Highly recommend for yourfriends the faithful win.
The faithfuls did win.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
And Caleb actually, like uh, put up some money for
them, so that was fun and highlyrecommend for your friend group
to do that.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
That is very fun.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
And what a great show .
Speaker 2 (18:18):
Love.
Have you been watching oh?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
yeah, I'm all caught up.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Same, we can talk about it later.
You can tell me about your pasttwo weeks.
A lot has happened very fastand I'm going to be moving this
week, so this is the last timewe'll be here, right, or we'll
have one more, because I have alot of overlap, so we'll be able
to do, I think, a couple morehere, while we figure out the
next setup.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Anyway, nothing else really to report, because I've
just been busy, just keepingbusy and.
I'm not going to talk about myunhinged have you already
started um packing?
I have already started packingand I bought paper plates and
plastic utensils so that I canpack up the kitchen class.
(18:58):
I feel like the kitchen is themost tedious.
The kitchen and the bathroom,for some reason in my head, are
like the worst.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Really.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Yeah, cause it's like there's so many little things
and you're like oh yeah, but itwas opening my cabinets and I
was like do you know how muchstuff is above my refrigerator?
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Yeah, but it is a good opportunity to throw things
away.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
You're right, and the place I'm moving is like double
the square footage, so I willhave more space, which is nice,
um, but that doesn't mean I needto get more things or take
everything.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
No, because you have a storage unit that you can get
rid of now.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
So use the space.
I have a two car garage, though, so that can go into the garage
.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
That's fire.
That's rich, that is rich.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Anyway, so yeah, it's been pretty chill over here, um
, and that's all I'm going tosay on the podcast.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Oh, but I do have news.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Thank you, I've been waiting.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
What.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
What do you think I'm going to say?
Mine's pop culture.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
No, I was just trying to be funny.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Let me look at my list.
I have three things, oh okay.
So first, this is pop culture,music news.
So in the Taylor Nation therewas, so back a while ago, two
songs got leaked from Taylorfrom the Lover era.
Oh okay, she ended up releasingone of them as part of
(20:21):
something.
Poets no, it wasn't part oftorture poets, maybe it was.
Whatever she released.
The other one is called need.
Never released it, okay.
Okay, all of a sudden that, butwe all you can like find the
demo of it, of her singing it,and it's a banger.
All of a sudden this guy startsteasing this song on tiktok.
(20:42):
He has like little to nofollowing but like has the
artwork for it and it's thelover era artwork and it sends
taylor nation into a tizzy forlike 48 hours.
We're all like what ishappening?
Why?
What is this?
Who is this man?
Yeah, when you look him up, hehas released a few songs on
spotify.
He's a songwriter who's writtenfor other artists, okay, and
(21:05):
one of the songs he's recentlyreleased is called Hiss.
So everyone assumes this is aTaylor deep fake.
Like reputations about to beannounced.
Okay, because it's like too manythings and it's like what is,
and then he releases it.
So now we have this version outin the world by this guy that
is a cover, essentially ofTaylor's song.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Oh, okay.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Did he release his?
His has already been out.
Yeah, it released.
Then he released Need.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
And it's a banger.
I downloaded it.
I was like wow, this is reallygood.
And if you look at it onSpotify, it says produced by
Taylor Swift, written by TaylorSwift.
And so everyone was like, andso everyone's like what does
this mean?
Like she's not even talkingabout this.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Taylor Nation goes insane on this man trying to
figure out what's going on, tothe point where he removes it.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
It has nothing to do with Taylor at all, it's he got
a mechanical license to do acover of this song.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
And then it blew up.
So he posts the thing on TikTokand he's basically like you
guys, I did this legally, I wasallowed to do this, but like I'm
going to take it down for asecond because everyone is
freaking out that I lied topeople and I didn't, I was just
like he was doing a publicitystunt.
He was literally like yeah hewas kind of like in the comments
(22:23):
of his own leak he was likecan't wait for Taylor's version.
So people were like, what doyou mean?
Yeah, he did nothing wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
He did it legally.
What's a mechanical license?
Speaker 1 (22:31):
So a mechanical license is what you get to be
able to do a cover.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
How do you get that?
Speaker 1 (22:35):
You're just like when you well.
So in this case he would havehad to get permission from her
because it was unreleased aboutit the legal way and she just
responded like I mean it's likeimagine how many people.
But like, if I wanted to do acover of an already released
taylor song, you just get amechanical license when you
register it, so like I would goto upload it.
(22:55):
It would ask for the originalsongwriters you submit it, then
they have to approve it okay andnine times out of ten it gets
approved that has to be so manypeople a day oh yeah, of course,
and that's someone has to besomeone's full-time job and I'm
sure, like a lot of them, getdenied if the quality isn't good
but, like I've never had amechanical license be denied
(23:15):
work period thank you, celine.
Um so, I just thought that wasso funny that's crazy.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
She's gonna release it now that everyone's like.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
I don't think so, because lover Lover, she owns
Lover.
Lover was the first one thatshe owned after the Scooter.
Yeah, so we're not going to geta Lover Taylor's version, cause
it already is.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Yeah, but she could just release the song.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
It's just so that era .
If you listen to it it's likeshe could, she won't.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
I don't think she will Just as a random, like
single.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
No, what would be a really fun like this is how much
I love my fans move would befor her to like do a duet
version with this guy Cause helike didn't do anything wrong
and it was so good.
So it's not come back on theSpotify yet, but I'm keeping an
eye out cause I liked it.
It was really good.
You should listen to it.
(24:08):
I think you vibe, I guess, lover, I guess if you say that I can
pick up the vibe, but is itpoppy like?
Is it fast or is it slow?
Fast, okay, let me see if I canplay a little cup of it.
But the other thing, while thisloads is so, when I was in a
boy band we did a cover of breakfree by aria grande.
We performed this song and Ihave had it stuck in my head,
but it's it's funny because it'sbeen brought to my attention
multiple times by anyone that'slistened to.
It's been brought to myattention multiple times by
anyone that's listened to itthat the way that I sing the
(24:29):
first verse is like oh no soundslike a slur, so it's.
If you want to take it.
I should have said it before.
Try to hide it, fake it.
But the way that I sing, fakeit it sounds like the f sounds
like the f, sl, and now it's allI can say when I'm singing it.
Well, I mean you can say it itpopped up as a memory and I was
(24:49):
watching it.
I was watching the performanceand I was like, yeah, I am 100%
saying the F slur.
Anyway, you be the judge.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Well, you can't get in trouble because you can say
it.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
True, but you know, okay, here's what you released.
The song is not available dueto circumstances that I, due to
criticism that I've beenreceiving lately for making a
cover song, which millions ofpeople have done and still do, I
have decided to remove needcompletely.
I received the mechanicallicense to make this cover song
and have never once said I wastaylor or her team, which he
didn't, but he was also likeplaying with people yeah however
(25:21):
, speculations and clowning gotway out of hand, which caused
many people speculating andspreading false information
around and purposefully twistingthings, and for that I've
decided this.
I appreciate all the supportthat you have given me and I
hope to enjoy, if you enjoy,future music that I put out
steven and it sucks, because itwas good oh, so it sounds like
he's not gonna put it back up hehad.
He originally said he was, andit seems that he's not part of
me also wonders if that means hedid get like legally.
(25:43):
They were like they got too bigand her team may have been like
okay bro yeah, but I feel likeif you get a mechanical license,
they can't they can't.
Yeah, renee can be like justkidding it got.
It's too popular like whatmechanical, like the cover
artist gets nothing.
Yeah, like it all goes to theoriginal artist.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Yeah, anyway that is like a fun saga to follow.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
It is, and it was like all my attention for two
days.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
That's so funny.
I saw none of it.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
That is funny.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Like not even a single, a single video, yep.
So it's just so crazy howthings can be happening on the
internet While Depending on whatsite, and people can have no
clue, none.
Well, speaking of the internet,dizzy um asap rocky was
(26:37):
acquitted I saw that whichseemed like launch over and
tackle rihanna oh yeah hilariouswild.
It is wild and good, I guessyeah, I didn't really like look
into it because I was.
Where was I, I don't know.
It was like early in themorning, was I still in mexico,
I don't know, but I so I didn'treally get to read too much into
(27:00):
it.
So let me just look up reallyquickly.
So he was being charged withtwo felony counts of assault
with a semi-automatic firearm,um, in which a former friend
said the rapper shot at him inhollywood, grazing his knuckles.
So he pled not guilty, rejecteda plea deal that would have
(27:20):
involved very little jail timeand opted not to testify during
the case.
Okay, so the jurors decided ittook the jury of seven women and
five men roughly three hours todecide the case, finding Rocky
not guilty of the two felonies.
They could decide Rocky was notguilty because he only fired
blanks from a prop gun takenfrom a music video set, as the
(27:42):
defense argued, or in that heacted in self-defense.
They could simply decide that,oh, this is what they could.
They could, that was what hehis defense was arguing that it
was a prop gun that he took froma music video.
And, um, there, they said thatthere was too much reasonable
doubt to convict.
So ASAP rallies.
(28:05):
Testimony made up the bulk ofthe prosecution's case.
One surveillance camerarecorded the sound of the shots
being fired, another partiallycaptured a scuffle shortly
before the shooting, and anothervideo showed, uh, the incident
itself, though the frame withinthe view was small, blurry and
far from definitive, so it lookslike they just didn't have
enough physical evidence to showit that they just had this
(28:28):
guy's testimony, and so, beyondreasonable doubt, I guess, wins
again wow but yeah, he launchedhimself over.
Did he get in trouble by the?
They were like quiet down, getback here, yeah, I was like.
I feel like the judge would nothave liked that.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
No, but speaking of courts, you saw diddy's lawyer
quit.
I did.
Did you also know his lawyerwas osama bin laden's lawyer?
Speaker 2 (28:57):
I just learned literally that today how the
hell's osama bin laden's lawyergonna quit.
And also, when was this and whydid he have a lawyer here?
Yeah, I don't know what was thecontext of this.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
That I don't know, it's just the like.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Diddy and Osama bin Laden's lawyer.
We're through line Okay, okay,okay.
How do I find this Attorney whodefended Osama bin Laden quits
sex trafficking case?
Anthony Rico, one of Sean DiddyCombs defense attorneys, has
(29:37):
sorry, has filed to withdrawfrom the hip hop moguls case,
sparking a wave of speculationdiscussions online.
Um, although I've provided SeanCombs with a high level of
legal representation, under nocircumstances can I continue to
effectively serve as counsel forsean combs consistent with the
aba standards for criminaljustice.
Okay, get me to the why obl thisattorney defended none other
(30:02):
than osama bin lad in the UScourt after World Trade Center
bombing.
He was here.
What?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
We were 11.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Weren't we trying to find him for so long?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
Yeah, yeah, zero Dark Thirty, Hello, great movie.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Bryce Dallas Howard.
No no way, no way.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
With such confidence.
You said that it's not Bryce.
One more try.
It's Jessica Chastain, Jessica.
Speaker 2 (30:28):
Chastain.
There's no way I will ever beable to tell the difference
between them.
My eyes are watering.
That's funny, okay, how wasAnthony Rico Osama's lawyer?
I feel like chat gbt couldanswer this anthony rico is a
(30:50):
veteran criminal defense defenseattorney known for taking some
of the most high profile andcontroversial cases
controversial cases, why can't Italk?
In 2001, he served as part ofthe legal team defending osama
bin laden.
In that capacity, rico Ricoargued that bin Laden shouldn't
be prosecuted because he was notpresent in the US at the time
and thus couldn't effectivelydefend himself under US law.
(31:11):
The stance was one of severalRico's career that highlights
his willingness to representclients involved in the most
challenging, contentious legalbattles.
So there was a time in whichbin Laden was in the Us on trial
, and then he left, and then wewere searching for him was it
pre-9-11 for something else?
Speaker 1 (31:31):
this is in 2001 okay, well, hell, if I know how did
we get him?
Speaker 2 (31:35):
there's plot holes in our history, sorry okay, so
this says osama bin laden wasindicted by the us authorities
following september 11th attacks, as part of the government's
broad effort to hold thosebehind terrorism accountable.
He was charged fororchestrating attacks and
supporting terrorism, where theindictments were issued in 1998
and again in 2001.
However, bin laden was nevercaptured or brought within us
jurisdiction.
(31:56):
Okay, so they had him on trialwhen he wasn't here, so he was
probably like okay, right, I'lldefend this guy um, but zero
dark 30 is a good movie, so youguys should watch it yes, it is
uh
Speaker 1 (32:10):
with jessica chastain and it is christina hendrix
best performance christinahendrix, who's that?
Speaker 2 (32:16):
just another redhead that you would confuse there is
a girl who is in that movie, whois also in lioness, oh, oh,
doing the same thing.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Oh really.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
She just like is playing the.
She's like a us official.
Yeah, just like this lady justkeeps getting cast as the same
character.
Good for her.
Um, but I finished lioness andI liked it, so I recommend okay,
are you, did you finish younger?
Speaker 1 (32:43):
I finished younger.
What are your thoughts.
Here's my thoughts.
Here's what I actually thinkhappened.
I think younger kept gettingrenewed and they didn't think
they were going to.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
So they kept trying to end it.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
I think the last two seasons.
So first of all, my favoritecharacter in the whole show.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Marketing yes.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Whatever her name is, the I don't remember her
character.
The bestie calls her Diva.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
Diva yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Oh, my God.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
What is her name?
Speaker 1 (33:07):
You know who I'm talking about, though.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Liza's boss.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
I think she was like okay, I'm really sick of this
show getting renewed, Becausewhen she gets married, then she
only appears one more time in avideo call.
Speaker 2 (33:19):
Yeah, it's a FaceTime .
It's like I'm really lovingItaly.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Loving Italy, I'm going to stay.
It's like, yeah, your characterwould never but okay, um, and I
loved her.
Like her comic relief wasreally like refreshing to me.
I also loved the commitment tolike that bit, that her bit
never changed, the large, gaudynecklaces and the attitude was
this it was the only characterthat just was consistently that
(33:41):
you end up hating Charles, whichis like oh my God, yeah, fine
with me.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
I.
I think the the besty, the like, uh jewish lesbian girl, I
think she was the same the wholetime.
She too, right I?
Speaker 1 (33:52):
think she became way more likable, like she went from
being a supporting character toalmost like a lead yeah um, I
think it's funny that, like I, Ithink what must have happened
too is, like in the testing forthe last seasons, because I know
how that stuff goes I thinkpeople really resonated with her
because, like, come on, what doyou mean?
She just goes there and getsherself a job.
She just like takes the placeof this marketing executive.
(34:15):
I'm her eyes and ears.
Speaker 2 (34:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
Anyway.
So I think the last seasonspecifically, they were like
okay what do we do?
Let's put Liza in a precarioussituation again, where the
signals get crossed and she ismade to look like a fucking
idiot and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and then it ends and
(34:42):
literally like, oh, it's theseason finale.
Wow, there's like nothingbuilding up here.
So what's about to happen?
Yeah if you haven't seen it,plug your ears.
It ends literally.
I was like this can't be thelast scene.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
This cannot be the last yeah, it's so unceremonious
in the bar, you know yeah therecreation of when her and josh
raising the shoe, yeah, yeahyeah, and I'm just like and then
they're like not together,right they're?
Speaker 1 (35:04):
They're not together.
Here is how the show could havebeen exponentially better at
the end.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
It was set up like like a fucking um Darren Chris
show or Darren.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
Star.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
They're in star show.
It was like a sex in the city,just a little cornier, but like
devil wears Prada-esque, whereit's like they could have
literally had that scene andthen done a one minute montage
of like six months from now,where there's literally no
dialogue.
It's just one of those likeanthematic song where they just
pan shot across each of theirlives and they show hillary duff
(35:41):
in la like running the new, hernew thing that she's doing in
la.
Yeah, liza.
Liza and Josh like on avacation together.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
Yeah, their wedding.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
Like in a home, but you see, like a wedding photo.
Yeah, lesbian redhead hotfriend like doing some boss shit
.
Yeah, charles, like hanging outwith his daughters.
I don't know, they could havedone one minute it could have
just been a quick, sweeping shotthat would have literally tied
it all up and been like a nice.
Speaker 2 (36:09):
Couldn't they also have just recreated this scene
of her and Josh meeting and themjust being like it was always
you?
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
And just kiss.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Because they did that four other times throughout the
show.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
Where Josh was, like you've always been there.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
Yeah.
Yes, it could have been Justmake it like her being like yes,
you're right, it was always you.
We love each other.
We're kissing and then a littlemontage.
Yeah, I agree, it was veryunceremonious.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
When I get to audition for Darren Star one day
.
I'm going to be like thank youfor seeing this audition.
Can we have a chat?
Because, look, I loved and lookit's put, it's reignited this
like love for Hilary Duff and methat I've always had.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
I've been relisting to her albums.
I think we really slept on heras a pop princess.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Oh my gosh.
That video has been viral ofher doing her little booty shake
.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
I've now been listening to podcasts where
she's a guest, so I justlistened to her on um your.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
Josh Peck.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Yeah, it was from like two years ago.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
Yeah, oh, I watched it when it came out immediately,
don't worry, it's just like butshe's like the most likable
person ever.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
Yeah, she is America's sweetheart and is pure
and just like, living her life,doing her thing, being like.
Yeah, I love music.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
I would like to watch the series bunheads that um is
features sutton foster.
I watched this when it came outum in what year?
I just saw it was older it wasfeatured on hulu, or yeah, it
just became featured on hulu.
I watched this.
What year?
2012?
It's a.
So the description is bunheadstells a fish out of water story
(37:52):
where michelle sims, a oncepromising, classically chained
professional dancer who wasdrawn to the lights of las vegas
where she became a showgirl.
After she impulsively marriesher persistent suitor, she moves
to sleepy to sleepy Californiacoastal town where he lives with
his mother.
Fanny, herself a former dancer,now runs a local dance studio.
Michelle ends up bonding withsome of Fanny's students after
(38:14):
meeting them.
Among the students is Sweet Boo, who struggles with her body
type.
Rebellious Sasha, who hastalent to be a ballet dancer but
doesn't have a heart in itbecause of family issues.
Shapely Jenny, who's notcomfortable in her own skin.
And fun-loving Melanie, readyfor whatever life throws at her.
The students benefit fromMichelle's knowledge, but she
also benefits from them, as theyhelp her adapt to small town
(38:36):
life.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
All I got from that is how insulting it is to call
someone shapely.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
Yeah, that's crazy is to call someone shapely.
Yeah, that's crazy Okay so no,I'm not going to watch that.
That's a IMDb or RottenTomatoes description.
But, yeah, she is a Vegasshowgirl that moves to this
small town and she startsteaching at the dance studio,
and I sure watched it when itcame out Great.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
It also is just another reminder that is Sutton
Foster, the busiest woman inshow business.
She's doing theater, she'sdoing movies, she's doing the TV
shows.
Like I forgot too until I was Iwas rewatching A Year in the
Life Gilmore Girls that she isin an episode of that with her,
then husband, what's his name?
Who is not gay, apparently theguy that's.
(39:23):
He was also in Younger.
He had a cameo in younger.
He played like the poor magazineeditor who she kind of dates,
but he's always like stealingfood from parties cause he
doesn't have food at home.
Oh, and then I barely rememberthat he is the one that writes
the article about her, heractual age.
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Do you?
How does that happen?
Is it just like my husbandwants?
Or we have this character andshe's like my husband will do it
?
Speaker 1 (39:48):
They do so much stuff together and they've remained
best friends since their divorce.
And he is the original Emmettin Legally Blonde on Broadway.
He was in oh, did you watch?
Let Me Be your Star.
What was that Smash?
I watched like the verybeginning beginning I never
finished it okay play the gayman, so again work but not all
(40:12):
theater.
Men are gay, I guess well, thefew that aren't really, they get
the pick they get the pick ofthe litter of whatever they get
the pick of the litter indeed,anyway.
So, yes, younger's done,finally.
And now I'm on to like well,white Lotus just started again.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
I started it.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Did you watch the newest episode?
Speaker 2 (40:30):
I did not watch last night's.
I've only seen the firstepisode.
Speaker 1 (40:32):
Spoiler alerts.
I'm not going to talk about thesecond episode to you, but I am
going to say that I don't knowwhy Mike White always has to
throw like a little somethingthat's just like a little icky,
into each season brothers andsisters.
Speaker 2 (40:46):
They were being weird about the sister too, and I
don't.
Yes, and this is not a spoil,but the episode opens.
Episode two opens with a shotof schwarzenegger's like naked
body in bed and the brother, hislittle brother, looks at him so
it's the little brother that'sthe weird one, because there was
a conversation where at thebeginning that was like brothers
(41:08):
and sisters can't sleep, likedon't sleep in the same room
anymore, and I thought thatSchwarzenegger was the weird one
.
Speaker 1 (41:17):
So it's the younger one that is like, and I'm just
like, are we going to find outhe's not his biological brother?
And then he's going to make amove on it.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
It's just the way he looked at him.
Speaker 1 (41:30):
He was literally like yeah, the whole time josh and I
have been like hate this, hatethis feeling, stop it, stop it.
I do love the gossipy lorecoming out now about patrick
schwarzenegger being closetedgay and that his boyfriend
wasn't like allowed to come tothe premiere because he's like
trying to keep his closeted lifecloseted.
Otherwise, the show is good.
Like I'm excited about it.
Episode two was really good.
It's just I also always forgetthis is one of those shows
that's honestly better to giveit a couple weeks so you can
(41:51):
binge it, because 60% of theshow is just really artsy, slow
panning shots of somethingthat's happening.
You know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
Okay, because I have not seen season one or two.
Speaker 1 (42:01):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (42:02):
So I'm coming into the universe cold.
Speaker 1 (42:05):
Oh, so you don't know the lore of also how Mike White
was on Survivor.
No, mike White.
Speaker 2 (42:11):
No, but that name is familiar and that's probably why
.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
So he is the creator of the show.
He was on Survivor.
He's also an actor.
He wrote and was in the movieSchool of Rock, like he's famous
.
Oh yeah, I saw him on survivoryeah, he puts his survivor cast
mates in every season but, onlyfor like a background style like
cameo okay so natalie from hisseason oh, yeah, was in the
(42:37):
first episode.
She was the woman that went andsat at the table and then the
lead actress, black woman likelooks over at her and, like they
, smile at each other in thefirst episode.
Speaker 2 (42:46):
How did I miss that?
Speaker 1 (42:47):
I don't know, but that's Natalie.
Speaker 2 (42:48):
So it's always like look out who's in the first two
seasons.
Speaker 1 (42:53):
The first season is.
You'd have to look it up.
I don't remember who it is.
Speaker 2 (42:57):
I mean, I would know if I saw his face, but anyway,
so he always puts his cast mateswhich is another fun piece of
lore.
Speaker 1 (43:03):
But the show is such beauty shots and like you need
to.
I mean, jennifer Coolidge isiconic, you must.
I mean I love it.
Speaker 2 (43:11):
It wasn't that I didn't want to, I just never got
around to it because we hadjust finished lioness.
We were like we have alsostarted the penguin, which we I
don't know why we startedanother show in tandem with this
.
But he, josh, is a fan of thewhite Lotus in general, so he
was like should we watch it?
And I said I've never seen.
But yeah, and I wanted to watchbecause of Lisa.
Speaker 1 (43:34):
Yeah, so, oh, my God, she's doing great.
She's such a good actress.
Speaker 2 (43:37):
Yeah, I didn't put to , I didn't know it was in
Thailand.
So then when the opening itstarted in Thailand, I was like
that's why Lisa's in it, becauseshe's Thai, and yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:47):
Um, so that's great.
I also did you watch the SAGawards yesterday?
I didn't, so be aware, and it'spretty much you'd expect.
Everyone that wanted the globeglobes basically want except
timothy did win the best actorand he gave a great speech like
well deserved.
(44:07):
It was also much shorter andkristin bell is such a great
hostess so like they did, like agossip girl bit with leet and
meester I heard that they didthat.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
That's fun um.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
She sang like a medley in the beginning do you
want to be an actor instead of.
Do you want to be a?
Do you want to build a snowman?
Speaker 2 (44:19):
I like that.
I'll look that part up.
I just was like do people watchthis awards show Like I didn't?
I didn't think that anyonecared.
Speaker 1 (44:24):
It was really produced in a way that seemed
like to me it was producedbetter than the Golden Globes,
like it was entertaining.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (44:31):
Um.
Speaker 2 (44:32):
I honestly didn't even know they were happening to
be really honest.
Speaker 1 (44:35):
It was like live on Netflix.
How would you even know that?
Speaker 2 (44:38):
I didn't Right but, and then I was like oh, no one's
watching this for sure, but Iwill go back and watch that,
because I do love Kristen Bell.
Speaker 1 (44:45):
And Jane Fonda got the Lifetime Achievement Award
and her speech was really good,like the speeches were really
good in this one.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
I saw that, Timothy like his outfit.
Speaker 1 (45:06):
It was looked really good, it was really cool.
But anyway, sag awards nowwe're fine.
Speaker 2 (45:07):
Finally we're to the oscars.
Yeah, is that this sunday?
It's this sunday.
Yeah, wait, it was yesterday.
When this episode comes out,they will have already happened.
Okay, oh right, so I did end upwatching conclave oh, you did.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
Now I have one today, or it wanted the sag awards I
was not prepared for this movie.
Speaker 2 (45:19):
What?
Speaker 1 (45:19):
do you mean?
Speaker 2 (45:19):
like it just like took a turn a twist really that
I just like didn't I couldn't,yeah, I thought it was good.
It's very artsy and yeah youknow, kind of slow.
I mean it's.
How crazy could it be with, youknow, cardinals in the vatican?
It wasn't that wild, yeah, butit.
(45:39):
I mean I had no idea what wasgoing to happen and it it took
me by surprise it won not.
Best picture won something,though, at the sag awards I have
to watch it, I want to see itand like the, the guy that is
like becomes like a integralpart of it.
(46:02):
He's like not an actor at all.
I don't.
I looked him up and it was justlike he's just like a regular
working guy.
Speaker 1 (46:09):
That just got put in this movie.
That happens sometimes.
Speaker 2 (46:14):
Yeah, but I, I, yeah, I think you should watch it.
It is just like it's slow.
It's not like it's slow, it'snot like it's not like any other
movie I've seen.
It's just, it's very artsy andslow and I'll check it out
whatever, but I enjoyed it andwe are going to watch the
substance this week.
Speaker 1 (46:31):
Oh good, please let me know how, so we you got to
actually talk about it.
Yeah, um, she won demi more oneat the sack.
The other thing, that one thatwas shocking for everyone, was
um best ensemble in a comedyseries went to um, only murders
in the building.
And when they announced them,selena gomez was truly shocked
(46:52):
and she went up there because,no, none of the other cast was
there except mom shannon and shewas like sorry like we've never
won, so I was not expectingthis.
and she was like sorry, likewe've never won, so I was not
expecting this.
And she was like Steve andMartin they're not here because
they don't care.
Speaker 2 (47:05):
It was so good.
That's funny.
She, um, her and Benny are justeverywhere all at once.
Yep, and they're cute.
Speaker 1 (47:17):
I guess I don't have thoughts on benny blanco I don't
honestly writes every song everso talented man for him, zoe
saldaña.
One like all the ones you'dexpect I um.
Speaker 2 (47:33):
Another show that I've started watching is
paradise.
Have you seen this?
No I am very invested in thisshow so the premise is uh, the
world ends, like you know, likethey tell us, it's going to the,
the climate and the fires andthe natural disasters, whatever
that happens.
(47:53):
But this billionaire lady umwants to save initially, her
like thing is that she wants tosave her family.
So she uh funds this buildingof this city under um, these
mountains, somewhere.
Oh she hires all thesearchitects and scientists and
(48:14):
whatever to make it so that theycan live underground and umames
marsden plays the president.
So he was a president in reallife and then they made him the
president under oh under thecity what is this on hulu oh?
And um sterling k brown, Ithink his name.
(48:37):
He is the main character heplays um one of his secret
service agents, and I've onlyseen like three episodes, so I'm
still learning the background,but it's so interesting to me
they've created this whole fakeworld under this mountain with
and it kind of looks it's likehunger games s, because it's
like a dome of basically likeLED screens or whatever that
(49:02):
make it daytime, oh yeah, yeah,and then it's sunset and then
it's nighttime.
They have like fake sounds ofbirds and all these things.
And I don't know they wearthese bracelets that tell them
when to do things so I don'tlike that part.
Speaker 1 (49:21):
People are in there, would you say hundreds oh, it's
it's very big.
Speaker 2 (49:26):
They like, uh, picked families and stuff and people
because they they obviously theworld ended, so they need to
have babies and they can't havepeople who, like everyone who's
related, basically, um.
But then the premise and thisis not really a spoiler, cause
it happens in the very beginningof the first episode James
Marsden gets murdered, so thepresident dies and they're
(49:49):
trying to find out what happened.
But I'm very invested, it's sogood and I just saw that they
got renewed for a second season.
Speaker 1 (49:56):
And then that is all I need to know to execute
watching it myself.
Speaker 2 (50:00):
You should watch it.
That's good.
Good, rex.
Yeah, I guess this episode isjust us talking about what we're
watching.
Well, yeah, pop culture, sowait.
One more thing is have you beenwatching the POV TikToks?
I think I sent you some.
Speaker 1 (50:14):
I have watched the Titanic, one that you sent me,
and then I saw that you made one.
Speaker 2 (50:17):
I can't stop, they're everywhere.
So you guys.
Speaker 1 (50:21):
It's like your ASMR.
Speaker 2 (50:23):
Yeah, and so someone started making these AI videos
that make it a POV that you'vewoken up somewhere and there are
a lot of them are bad.
It's like you wake up themorning of the eruption of
Pompeii.
You wake up on the.
Titanic.
You wake up the morning of theeruption of pompeii.
You wake up on the titanic.
Speaker 1 (50:41):
You wake up um I saw one that was like you wake up in
the lost city of atlantis yeah,most of them are disasters.
Speaker 2 (50:50):
You woke up the morning of the atomic bomb
dropping in hiroshima like it iswild.
And there's all these scenesthat ai has created of what the
like day would look like forsomeone like that.
They aren't really accurate,but it's like you wake up in
your bed and one of the Salemwitch trials I've been to the
Salem witch trials and it's likeshe wakes up and then she like
(51:13):
makes bread and then they go tochurch and then there's like men
pointing at her and then shegoes to trial and then she gets
hung.
Like it's like wild.
So, yeah, I made one just to befunny, because that is fine I
needed content.
Yeah, but that's been my wholetimeline love that and that's
another example of this is allI'm seeing and I've talked to
(51:35):
people like when I did that POVvideo I was telling Haley and
she was like I don't know whatyou're talking about.
Speaker 1 (51:43):
Like she had not seen a single one.
Speaker 2 (51:45):
And I was like this is every single video that I'm
seeing, so that's also what I'vebeen watching is POV disaster
videos.
Speaker 1 (51:53):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (51:55):
Also, just before I get to the birthdays, I just
need you guys to know that I infact did go to the pokemon go
event in los angeles didn't evenknow that was a thing I uh
caleb and hayley.
I am not a big pokemon goer Iplayed in 2016.
pokemon head played in 2016 wheneveryone else was and then when
(52:17):
we were on tour two years ago,I started playing again with
Caleb and Haley because we werenew cities and it was like a fun
thing to do on the car ridesand whatever, and then I stopped
again.
They never stopped.
They are constantly Saturdaymornings going on Poke walks and
catching them all.
There was a big Pokemon eventthis weekend that apparently
(52:37):
there was only two in the worldhappening at the same time.
One was, I think Caleb said,like Taipei, and then Los
Angeles at the Rose Bowl, andthey got invited as like
influencer, content creators,because they're big into playing
it.
I went with our friend, kyleHanagami, who choreographed Mean
Girls.
He had me as his plus one, so Iwent as like kind of a content
(53:01):
creator.
I really didn't have to postanything.
I did, but I didn't have to andwe got like vip access.
But when I tell you, so manypeople, hundreds and hundreds,
probably thousands of peoplewere in the rose bowl just
walking around looking at theirphone, catching them them all.
I got to meet Pikachu.
