A couple that say that they agree with her about
Encores messing up the flow of the opera, but.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
They completely disagree about how she handled it.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
So I would say that Stormy's the general consensus is
how she behaved was wrong. Yeah, But of course, because

All right, well that is not what we're gonna what

going to be at the a a Fi Film Festival soon. Uh,
(04:31):
and it's gonna be on Netflix, uh this fall.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
So we're really excited.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Yes, and it is the It is a biopic. It's
simply called Maria. It is a biopic about Maria. It's
a biopic. I'm sorry, Uh.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
What have you been replaced by the borg?
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Probably?
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Damn.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
It is a biopic that is about the last days
of La Divina when she was in Paris and like
her her final days and uh that yeah, this is
like the years after Aria Nassis and after she's retired
(05:16):
and everything. So we're anxious to see this now the
star of this movie. And it's amazing because we could
I could not. I honestly could not. I could tell
a little bit, but not really. She It's like, you know,
when she gets in these roles, she transforms herself. It's
Angelina Jolie. She's got the right face shape, she does,
(05:42):
she does, and so she she is, she plays La
Divina and let me see. Okay, So here we have
a This is from Classic FM and this is on
(06:04):
their website and this was dated August thirtieth. Maria Callis,
arguably the twentieth century's most influential opera singer, will be
portrayed by Angelina Jolie in a new film by Pablore Loraine.
Angelie Julie is starting as La Divina, the legendary opera
(06:25):
giva Maria Callis in a new biopic from Chilean director
Pablo Larine. Maria is set during the singer's final days
in nineteen seventies Paris, and is based on the quote
true accounts of Callus's life one film with music, passion,
and tragedy. The film is due to be released in
(06:48):
twenty twenty four on Netflix, so it said fall. So
at any point now between now and probably the end
of November, it's going to be released on Netflix. And
The biopic is directed by larryn with a screenplay by
Stephen Knight, who wrote Peaky Blinders.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Ooh yeah, the gun be good.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
They previously collaborated on a twenty twenty one biopic Spencer,
starring Christen Stewart.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
As the one about Princess Diana.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
I heard really good things about that.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Yeah, so, the director said. Having the chance to combine
my two most deep and personal passions, cinema and opera,
has been a long awaited dream. To do this with Angelina,
a supremely brave and curious artist, is a fascinating opportunity,
a true gift. So here's everything you need to know
(07:53):
so far about Maria. Maria will tell the tumultuous, beautiful
and tragic story of the world's great operasinger, relived and
reimagined it during her final days in nineteen seventies, Paris
hailed by Leonard Bernstein as the bible of opera, Callous
remains one of them of opera's most adored figures. By way,
(08:15):
there is a not to not to go off on
too much for a tangent. But there is a movie
about a Leonard Bernstein called Maestro Oh with Bradley Cooper.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Yeah, and it's where people going up in arms over
his prosthetic nose.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
And meanwhile Leonard Burnsy's family is like, no, guys, Dad
really looked like that.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Yeah. Let me see where we can see it? Why? Oh?
It is on Netflix yo, also on Netflix, Okay. A
leading exponent of the belcanto works a Blini and Rossini,
the New York born Greek soprano was also widely celebrated
(09:01):
for her Veriti and Puccini interpretations. A recording of her
singing Tosca in nineteen fifty two is considered unparalleled. Calus's
story has also been colored by events in her personal life,
including her relationship with aristotle Onassis, who left her unexpectedly
to marry Jackie Kennedy, the former First Lady of the
(09:22):
United States. The singer spent her the last years of
her life living in isolation in Paris and died of
a heart attack just aged just fifty three. So who
is cast in Maria as Angelia Jolie? Of course, the
American actor told The Hollywood Reporter in twenty twenty two,
I take very seriously the responsibility to Maria's life and legacy.
(09:46):
I will give all I can to meet the challenge.
And the cast also includes Pierre Francesco Favino, a Roorvaker,
Ha Luc bigr Uh, Cody Smith McPhee, and Valeria Gallinos
(10:08):
mc McPhee is really good. Yeah he was in Elvis.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Who did he play in Elvis? Because I know Austin
Butler was Elvis, But who did Cody s play?
Speaker 1 (10:19):
I'm not I'm not sure, Okay, So what is the
music in Maria? And will Angeline Julie be singing?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Let's see. Uh. Angelina Julie revealed she trained for almost
seven months to give a convincing impression of being an
opera star in the biopic. We will hear some of
Julie's voice mixed with Maria Callas sent recordings. Uh. The
director explained, opera requires a very particular style of singing.
(10:51):
The pitch, the color, the breathing, the posture. We recorded
Angie's voice and mixed it with Maria different levels. Sometimes
it's a tiny bit Angie and most Maria. Sometimes it's more,
but it's always there. It's likely callous to signature Aria.
Casta Diva from Belini's Aria Opera Norma will feature in
(11:11):
the film. Jolie revealed at a press conference that her
relationship to the word diva had changed through Casta Diva, saying,
I think I've relearned that word through Maria and Costa Diva,
and I have a new relationship to It's see here
and it says when will Maria be released? Shooting took
(11:36):
now this start. This was started filming in October twenty
twenty three and wrapped up at the end of December
of last year. Shooting took place. Shooting took place over
eight weeks across Europe, in Paris, in Greece, in Budapest
and Milan. Hungary is notably where Joli made her own
directing debut thirteen years prior, when she filmed In the
(11:57):
Lane of Blood and Honey and Uh. The biopic is
produced by Fabulous Pictures. One did One Didas Larne, Freemantle
Company's Apartment Pictures, Lorenzo Mieli and Kamlesen Films Jonas Dornbach.
Maria had its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival
(12:19):
on August twenty ninth, and is expected to be released
on Netflix in the UK at a later date. But yeah,
so it said in the fall. So uh, and I'm
sure that's gonna be the US as well. So so
I cannot wait to see that, nor can I.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Oh, we're gonna We're gonna make it a day.
Speaker 3 (12:46):

And we'll take from our take a break from cackling
at heels to oh yeah, to show Maricallis some respect.
Speaker 1 (13:05):

I was told by my nephew, you have to watch Oppenheimer.
I have watch that. I have to watch that, like

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Robert Downey Junior won an Oscar for the One Who's

Really?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
And how did how did uh Ryan Gosling get nominated
as for his role as Ken and Margaret Roby not
getting dominated as Barbie.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
I think Brian Goslin complained about that. That's bullshit, Like
I'm pretty sure I remember hearing that he complained about
something with the nominations and the people were applauding him
for complaining.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
So I think it was the fact that he got
nominated but Margot Roby didn't.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
And and America far Eric got nominated for her role
in Marbi.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
I think he was complaining that he got nominated but
both the girls didn't.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
It's like, the fuck not bullshit, that's bullshit.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I still love how Johnson and his manager told him
not to take the cameo as the mermaid Barban.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
He's like, fuck you, I do what I want.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Yeah, although when you watch the movie, we don't see
any mermaid.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I mean you see hair and a tail and there's
just no face. It was really creepy and weird.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
No.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Yeah, I mean that's one where I don't.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Think we can actually keep that joke up. Yeah, it
was just too perfect.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
He was just like, Yo, I'm doing it, y'all, can't
fucking stop me.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
But yeah, it was yeah, Miesro. To get back to
what we were talking about him, Yeah, so Maistro was
nominated for had all these nominations, and let's see, see
we've called we've collated everything we know about the production
so far from the story. It will tell to who
(20:15):
has lent their hand to bring Bernstein's story to the
silver screen. Now, Bernstein uh Was has been known for
more than just being the composer West Side Story. He
was He was a pianist. He was also a great conductor,
like I conducting.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
If you watch it, it is absolutely hysterical.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Oh yeah, because he was the one who got so aw.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Like he could out.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
He'd be like, all that's okod stuff.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
He'd be like completely dishoveled, like he stuck his figure
in an electrical socket.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
By the end of it.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Oh yeah, it was.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
It was amazing, but also fucking hilarious.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Oh yeah. Like you see all these conductors now, they
look you know, they they look a little a little
sweaty at the end of like even the ones.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
That get really into it, like a gang gets really
into it, but still manages to look fairly put together.
Looks like he conducted with one hand and stuck a
fork in on an electrical socket in the other.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
He looks like he he looks absolutely wrecked as shit
at the end of Yah, yeah, like.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Somebody was below the podium doing inappropriate things.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Yeah he does. He looks, he looks, he looks fucking wrecked. Okay,
it's hilarious. So the film will tell the story of
Bernstein's life, with a specific focus on his marriage to
his wife, Chilean American actress Felicia Monte monteign Monte Monte Alegre.
(21:50):
I had to stop for every minute. Felicia Monteleegre. Meister
follows Bernstein throughout his relationship and marriage to the actress,
from when the pair met at a party in nineteen
forty six up to up until her death following a
struggle with lung cancer in nineteen seventy eight. Over the
past few years, Cooper has worked closely with Bernstein's three children, Jamie, Nita,
(22:13):
and Alexander, to bring their father back to life on
the big screen.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
That's great, Yeah, and that's why I was saying, why
are people bitching about the nose and stuff?
Speaker 3 (22:23):
He was working with the kids. Yeah, the kids would
have approved.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
That, Like they knew dad had a big and that'd
be like if somebody tried to make a biopic of f.
Marie Abraham and like they complained because they gave him
a prosthetic dose.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
It's like, motherfuckers, Like you've seen his face.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah, seriously, Okay, so Bernstein. Jamie Bernstein told Classic FM
in twenty twenty two, we are very touched actually that
it's not that it's not a biopic strictly speaking, it
(23:02):
doesn't tell the story of Leonard Bernstein from birth to death.
It's not that kind of a film at all. It's
a portrait of our parents' marriage, so it's about something
very specific and very personal for us. We're really struck
by the fact that this was the aspect of the
story that Bradley wanted to focus on, and we're very
excited about the actress who's going to play our mother
(23:25):
and Zach who carry Mulligan played. Yeah. Cooper is both
directing and starring in the musical bio Pick and starring
as his titular character, Leonard Bernstein. Playing Bernstein's wife is
Cooper's co star, British actress Carrie Mulligan. The film has
received some backlash from the LATINX community due to Mulligan's
(23:46):
casting as Felicia monte Legre was Chilean. American Golden Globe
winning actor Matt Boehmer plays to clarinetis David Oppenheim Why,
while American actress Amya Hawk plays Bernstein's eldest daughter Jamie.
Among the high profile producers involved with the Fit in
(24:07):
the film are legendary American directors Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg.
A when the first murmers of a biopic about Bernstein began.
Spielberg himself was considering directing the proposed film, but, as
Cooper told Stephen Colbert on a late night show last year,
the director ended up passing on the project to a
(24:30):
Story is Born actor instead. Spielberg happened to know I
had this obsession with conducting, Cooper said on the late
night talk show. And he told me about this project
called Maestro. I asked him, are you really going to
direct this? And he said, I'm probably not going to
direct this. So I asked him to watch A Star
Is Born, which is Bradley Cooper's direct toil Daybut and
(24:53):
I said, if you like it, I can I research
Londer Bernstein and figure out out what the story could be.
Spielberger red, and while watching a coloring of A Star
Is Born, the director was so impressed by the film
that he told Cooper, you're fucking directing Maestro.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, I'm not surprised.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
This is the guy that cast the young woman and
I can't remember her name, the young woman who played
Lex in Jurassic Park by playing videos, by listening to
different videos of the kids screaming, and cast her because
her screaming brought Kay capture running out into the room
(25:36):
to check on their kids.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Oh geez.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Yeah, so that definitely sounds like us.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
And I mean you've seen the pictures of Spielberg fucking
around on the set of Jaws, So yeah, like, yeah,
that is definitely a thing Steven Spielberg would do.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Yeah, Burnist, Now this is what music will feature on
the Meister soundtrack. His own music will feature in the film,
as Cooper acquired the rights from the Bernstein estate to
do so in twenty twenty, putting an end to a
potential spat with actor Jake Chillenhall, who was also planning
a biopic on the conductor. Sorry Jake Jillenhall, uh uh
(26:19):
from the casting details.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Honestly though, I mean I love Jake Jellenhall, excellent actor.
I think Bradley Cooper would would end to do the
better draw because like, facially he resembles on our Burnstein.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Oh he does.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
Yeah, they didn't have to do They wouldn't have had
to do as much prosthetic work.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
They didn't have to do as much prosthetic work on
him as.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
They might have had to with Jake Jillen Jake Chillenhall
has that has that baby face.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Yeah, and he has a longer face.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Yeah, like there's more, there's more cheekbone, yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
And stuff like.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
And unfortunately he's he's not like Sam Rockwell who just
has to grow a beard out and makes mom nearly
faint because he looks so much like like the Bob
Fossey that she remembered yeah when he did Fossy Burgin.
But Bradley Cooper, on the other hand, has the kind
of face that you can kind of like just only
have to do a little bit with oh yeah, in
(27:20):
terms of making him look like someone.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Oh yeah, Like there's this pic, there's this picture of
him on this classic FM article, and I can't. I could.
I thought it was Bernstein. I thought it was Lennard Bernstein.
It's Bradley Cooper. It's like, surprise, motherfucker, Holy shit, Okay.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
It's Bradley. Bitch.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Yeah, from the.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Casting details of the film. Let me get no. Let
me let me while I'm thinking of it, show you
that article and you can scroll down and you'll see
because good god, let me let me see here jeebus.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
That face.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Okay, there I message to it.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Okay, has.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Because there's there's a black and white picture, and then
there's a then there's a color picture, right, you know, like.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
The poster.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, there's the poster, and then there's the black white pic.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
The black and white picture I can tell just because
I know that smile fucking anywhere, yea.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
And then the next one down.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Yeah, it's him as that's the Lendar Burnstein.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
And I remember I thought that.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
I thought that was actually a picture of Burnstay until
I read the caption. That's how good brother caper. Okay,
let's see from the casting details of the film, my
American actor Michael Yury is listed as portraying Jerome Robbins.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
I like Michael Yury. He's awesome.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
He was the bitchy best best friend on Ugly Betty
Oh okay, and was one of my favorites on there
oh oh.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Robin's most notably conceived, choreographed, and directed Bernstein's Wealth West
Side Story, which opened up Broadway in nineteen fifty seven.
So as lightly, we can't expect to see the musical
featured in the film.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So well, here's where I'm gonna get shouted at by people,
probably I Apart from the music, I cannot stand Westside Story.
I have never liked it, and I think it's because
it's supposed to be Romeo and Juliet.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
And I've never liked Romeo and Juliet either.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
I I find the music and the songs, I absolutely
fucking oh yeah, I do. I just I can't watch
the movie without getting irritated.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
I cannot. I find it. I find the movie itself.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Which sucks because I love Rita Moreno and Russ Hamblin
and George Chakaras are incredible dancers.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
And choreograph everything.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
It's so wonderful, and it's a movie that, by all
accounts I should like.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Yeah, I just I can't.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
I get, you know what I find I find watching it,
listening to the soundtrack and everything. All the music is fine.
I love the music, but it is I think because
it's me.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
It's supposed to be Romeo and Juliet.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Yeah, and I can't.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
I've never ever liked Romeo and Juliet.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
Yeah, Like I've never even been I haven't even been
able to.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Like. They made us sit through the one with Leonard
Waiting and Olivia Hussey in ninth grade English, and the
only reason we all paid attention is because a bunch
of us were Austin Powers fans and recognized Michael Yorke
right away.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Ah, like the only reason.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
We paid attention that and and and uh Leonard Wayne's ass.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
We that was actually censored and you know, rightfully so, yeah,
because I think our English teacher had forgotten that that
was in there. Oh so and rightfully so given the
circumstances of that scene being in there. So yeah, even
though he was of age at the time. Yeah, but no,
(31:34):
we just I think all of us in my class
were just like, these are all idiot teenagers?
Speaker 3 (31:42):
What the hell? Oh is this a great romance?
Speaker 4 (31:46):
No?
Speaker 3 (31:47):
I can't even I can't even watch the ninety six one.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
And that sucks because Harold Parano is like the best
mercutio ever.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Oh yeah, that one was.
Speaker 4 (31:58):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
I just hate I the ninety sixth version of Romeo
and Juliet. Okay, the concept was good. Bath Lorman's concept was,
you know, he had he had a good concept behind it.
But it's just I just found it just very that
it was just fucking tedious, like god, you know, and.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
It's not a lot of people have said that, like
it's tedious until like for anything that Racuccio is not in,
which is you know, understandable.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
Yeah, but I was like, uh.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
Good, mean, like I just I can't do Romeo and Juliet,
the only it's the only Shakespeare one that I just
cannot do.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Yeah, I've I've wanted to watch the old version before,
you know, because I've watched it like a long time ago.
I just can't bring myself to watch it. It's just
it's like, God, yeah, I can watch I can watch Hamlets,
I can watch Macbeth. I can you know, like the
(33:03):
the uh I want to watch I want to watch
the one with Denzel Washington in it. But I don't
have Apple Zel, but I don't have Apple TV. We do?
Speaker 3 (33:20):
We do? Oh you bitch, don't worry.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
I'm already running through my brain being like, hmm, what
can we.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
What might we be able to do?
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Yeah? Because because I be able to help because uh zaying,
my nephew watched it. He he has Apple TV. He
was able to watch it. I'm like, God, damn it.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
I want to see the I think it was McBeth.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
I want to see the one with Marion Kataer and
Michael Fassbender. I'll tell you the like, but yeah, Denzel, Holy,
Denzil takes priority. Yes, Dunzel Washington has taken priority since
like the nineties. Yes, I just keep I just remember
(34:09):
being like a young youngers are watching The Crown Family
and Sugar Mom would just be like ooh Denzil and
being like she knows what's up.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
I mean, I'm pretty sure everyone was like, oh, Denzil.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Okay, So so back to Maestro. Uh, let's see.
Speaker 3 (34:38):
You find out the opera stuff. By the way, once
we're done with Maestro.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
Yeah. Alongside Bernstein's own music, Cooper revealed to the SmartLess
podcasts host last year that, as part of the biopic,
the titular.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
Biopic biopic, I'm sorry, what.
Speaker 3 (34:56):
Did you drink today, Krista?
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Well, did you drink?
Speaker 3 (35:01):
Did you drink original formula diet coke?
Speaker 1 (35:05):
I have? I you know what, last night I did
a bad thing and it must have affected me. I
had like half a glass of iced tea and I
mixed the rest of my diet coke with it, and
I think that's what happened.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
You made you made non alcoholic milord?
Speaker 4 (35:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (35:24):
What yeah?
Speaker 3 (35:26):
Maybe no, maybe my orange caprine has infected you.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
M I didn't get the brain. I had to give
up the brain cell today. Sorry, guess I don't have
the brain cell either.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (35:42):
So so as part of as part of the biopic, okay,
the titular character will be seeing conducting Gustav Mahler's Expansive
Resurrection Symphony, which is Symphony number two in C minor
at Ellie Cathedral in England.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
But who's going to be conducting Kyle's mom is a
bitch in D minor. No sorry.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
It is one of the largest Gothic cathedrals in the world,
Cooper told the podcast host. And I'll be there live
conducting it with a one hundred and eighty chorus seventy
four piece orchestra. We can't we just cast these incredible singers.
It's going to be. I can't even who knows if
it'll work because because we're going to do it live.
But it either works or it does it now from
(36:34):
what I heard, from what I heard Bradley Cooper and
I've heard, like I think other conductors said this, he
could actually stand there and in his own, on his
own conduct an orchestra. From all that practice he's gotten,
(36:54):
he could probably conduct his own damn orchestra on his own.
I'm like Jesus, Maestro. This is when is Weister released?
And how can I watch it? Maistro arrives in select
theaters on November twenty second and lands on Netflix on
December twentieth. This is last year. The biopick will premiere
at the Venice Film Festival between August thirtieth and September ninth.
(37:18):
Adding to this in an episode of this SmartLess podcast
podcast last year and and by the way, the SmartLess
podcast is hosted by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
Yo, yeah yeah, and it says, it says.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
The podcast episode was made available less than a month
after first look pictures were released by Netflix from the
set set of the biopick Let's see here. Yeah oh,
it says. Each year Netflix releases a selection of films
in time for Award season, All Quite on the Western Front,
(38:04):
which triumphed over the twenty twenty three award season premiere
at a film festival on September twelfth, twenty twenty two,
before being released a month later on the streaming service.
So that's what they did with Maestro, and that's what
they'll probably do with Maria area, so if there is, so,
(38:26):
it's already been released in Venice, so it'll probably be
released either late October or early November. I can't wait.
I can't either. I think maybe between now and when
it comes out, like in the next month or two,
(38:47):
we should watch Maestro in between lower waiting, we should.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Or we should do a double feature day ooh.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
Ooh that sounds good. That sounds even better. That sounds
even better. I like that.
Speaker 4 (39:08):
I do.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
I do remember seeing like on on YouTube clips of
I think it was Christa Christa Ludvig uh with uh
Leonard Bernstein and also Jesse Norman, I believe. Yeah, so
he's conducted not only he has he conducted some really
(39:30):
awesome uh symphonies, he's also he's also conducted some very
great singers. So so yeah, uh so those are so
if you are so inclined, watch Maestro, watch when you know,
(39:51):
which is out now on Netflix, Watch Maria what Keep
keep a look at for Maria when it comes out,
which would probably be out if if if it goes
the same ways meister did last year, it'll be out
in November. Uh and uh. And if you're if you're
also so inclined. Go hop off, go find Macbeth and
(40:14):
watch that as well, because Denzel.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
Denzel, Denzel always Denzel.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
Yeah okay, oh yes, is there anything else we can
talk about?
Speaker 2 (40:28):
My goodness, yes, so I just found ah I accidentally
closed the browser here.
Speaker 3 (40:35):
So for.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
Rigoletto, yeah, this season they're doing the Barlet chair production again. Oh,
they're doing.
Speaker 3 (40:47):
Two different casts of course for the for it. So for.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
The January performances, Lucas Salcy's gonna be going to be
taking on the role alongside Pinipatti and Aaron Morley. Oh,
Rehab Chaib is making her met role as Madelena, and
Solomon Howard is going to be spar for Shili, and
(41:19):
then Michael Chioldi is going to be seeing the title
role on for the last performance. But for the fall performances,
Queen Kelsey's coming back. Oh he was awesome yep, and
it's going to be him, Stephen Costello and Nadine Sierra
(41:41):
along with Jennai Bridges, Solomon Howard and Anti Jacunica. Oh
and Pierre Giorgio Mirandi is conducting. Then for the January ones,
Maricchio Benini's correct conducting.
Speaker 7 (41:57):
Oh, I love pum Kelsey, Quen Kelsey's a and and
Pennett and and uh Pene Pati he is he's one
of those up and coming tenors to watch.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
Uh he's he's wonderful. He's wonderful. Uh he Oh.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
They're also I also found Accorin and Joshua Guerrero's Don
Carlo is going to be broadcast on r TV and
or three. Yeah, broadcast on the twenty ninth of September.
Speaker 1 (42:34):
Yeah, so o r F three Yeah, so o. R
F three is the Austrian is an Austrian channel. You
can find that. Uh, you'll have to have a VPN
for it, because I had to have it. I watched
Jonas on his show on a R on a r
(42:56):
D last night, which is the German public television station,
and you had to have I had to have VPN
to watch it. But uh, that's a that's a new
production of Don Carlo, uh by Carol Sarah bennikoff of
(43:16):
Parsival fame, and uh that should be really good. That
should be really good. And because it's called Don Carlo
and not Don Carlos, well.
Speaker 3 (43:29):
It says Carlos the ass.
Speaker 2 (43:33):
Oh really yeah, the Bienna, the Wien, the Wien is doing.
Speaker 3 (43:40):
It is Don Carlos.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
It must be well, see because because the difference is
what's called Don Carlo, it's the Italian version and Don
Carlos is usually the French version. So now that so
it's probably the French version.
Speaker 3 (44:04):
Uh oh we we but get what are you doing stepmother?
Speaker 5 (44:10):
Yeah you're welcome, by the way, but yeah, face that
that would be good because uh it's a new version
(44:33):
of Uh, I'm not like.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
See, I like see I watched I watched David McVicker's version,
which is beautiful, Okay, And then we've seen we've seen
the one that Jonas was in Vienna. We saw We've
seen the one that was at the met before.
Speaker 4 (45:00):
And I've seen.
Speaker 1 (45:01):
Uh what was it?
Speaker 4 (45:07):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (45:10):
And there have been other versions, but uh there like
it's just you have to be careful with that because
it is a even though it's it's not historically accurate, Okay,
(45:31):
even though it's not historically accurate, it's still in a
certain time period. So I'm not completely like I've I
did see a picture of it. I'm not completely you know,
Don Carlos is like it's like Andreas, you can't take
(45:57):
it out of the time period that it's in. Okay,
you have a hard time doing that because then it
doesn't make like the language it uses, like when it
talks about the Grand Inquisitor, when it talks about Flanders,
when it talks about you know, things like that Filled
(46:18):
the second being the King of Spain and Charles the
second being, you know, the Charles, Charles being emperor, the
old Emperor. It doesn't it doesn't make sense if you
take it, if you put it in a different setting.
Speaker 2 (46:38):
The only way that you could make that work is
if you had to be moved it up to like
pre nineteen eighteen, yeah, because then there was still there
was still an at least one emperor.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (46:52):
So unfortunately it still wouldn't work because it would be
Wilhelm rather than Charles.
Speaker 1 (46:59):
Yeah, because there was not a Yeah, because this is
like the old Spanish. Yeah, the old Spanish king. The
king's wrong, wrong.
Speaker 3 (47:12):
Branch of the Habsburgs.
Speaker 1 (47:14):
Yeah, but it's.
Speaker 2 (47:18):
Like we're talking about the branch of the Habsburgs that
was there was an arrow.
Speaker 1 (47:23):
Yeah, it's just it if it was.
Speaker 3 (47:26):
The Habsburg family tree that was a that was a wreath.
Speaker 1 (47:30):
Yeah, it's oh god, the branch of the Habsburg whose
motto was I'm my own grandpa.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
Oh my god, it really was, It really really was.
Speaker 4 (47:54):
Do you think they like literally.
Speaker 2 (47:56):
The last one, technically the last living habits and ash
Habsburg monarch like basically had one set of great grandparents
because that is Red.
Speaker 1 (48:09):
Was he his own grandpa?
Speaker 3 (48:14):
He very well could have been. The marriage produced zero children.
Speaker 1 (48:21):
Thank god. Yeah, it's the it's it's one hundred years
of solitude, but royalty, Oh god.
Speaker 4 (48:36):
The Spanish.
Speaker 2 (48:37):
If porn Hube existed back then, the Spanish Habsburgs would
have had their own section.
Speaker 1 (48:41):
Yeah, seriously, if Mad, what nst thou doing is stepmother?
I can't believe. I'm I can't believe I got to
make one hundred years of solitude joke.
Speaker 3 (48:56):
Oh god, I can't believe. I immediately followed that a
pornhobe joke.
Speaker 2 (49:07):
But I mean if the Spanish Absberg's literally, crazier things
have happened.
Speaker 3 (49:11):
For example, Don Carlos himself.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
Yeah, good lord. Now there are two ways that Don
Carlos died. He could have either starved to death like
his dad, walked him like Philip, locked him away and
starved him to death, or he could have died of
pneumonia because his favorite thing to do was to sleep
(49:36):
naked on a block of ice.
Speaker 2 (49:38):
Sleep ass naked on a block of ice. They're thinking
that's the one that's most likely to happen. That was
most likely to have happened because Philip apparently genuinely loved
his kids.
Speaker 3 (49:48):
Yeah, because that was his kid by his first wife.
Speaker 4 (49:53):
Yeah, it was also his cousin.
Speaker 3 (49:59):
Of course.
Speaker 2 (50:00):
Of course, how does I wonder how what the Spanish
translation of I'm my own grandpa is?
Speaker 1 (50:12):
And and we sat there and made it. Think of
how many years we've made fun of Mark Temperador for
being uncle Daddy.
Speaker 3 (50:26):
I don't love that one of the kids.
Speaker 2 (50:27):
I still love the de Norris's character on I think
it was Denorris's character on Clause was named uncle Daddy.
Speaker 3 (50:34):
And I'm like, wait a fucking minute, it's.
Speaker 1 (50:38):
His real name, Mar temper Door.
Speaker 4 (50:40):
Yeah, wait a minute.
Speaker 3 (50:41):
It's like, sir.
Speaker 1 (50:44):
By the way more Temperador. The reason we Grandpa, by
the way, well, the reason we Mark Temperador was a
goalie for the New Jersey New Jersey Devils for like
a ton of years, okay, New Jersey.
Speaker 2 (50:57):
Yeah, I think of that every time I hear Fred
Armisen saying that in that voice every time I see
lip more, Oh.
Speaker 1 (51:05):
Yeah, that and that, and when I think of it too,
I think, is that and uh? And that line from
Hamilton everything's legal in New Jersey.
Speaker 2 (51:18):
That's actually that's actually of a variation of that is
actually in the song Twitter and the Monkey ban by
the Traveling Woeberries, because it was me who it was
something like it was you to me who taught everything's
legal in Jersey as long as.
Speaker 4 (51:31):
You don't get caught.
Speaker 2 (51:38):
Oh dear also has a ton of springsteam reference, isn't
it too, so it's even more awesome.
Speaker 1 (51:44):
Oh yeah. Anyway, so more tamper door. He was a
he was a goaling for the New Jersey Devils for
like umpteen gazillion years. And what happened was he was
married to his first wife, okay, but then he turns
around and has an affair with her sister, okay, and
(52:10):
he divorces his first wife and marries the sister and
they have kids. So yeah, that's why we call him
uncle daddy because he had kids with his first wife too.
(52:31):
That's why we call him uncle daddy. That's but like
I but like we were like we're saying that's that's
a drop in the bucket compared to the Spanish Halfsburgs.
M good Jesus Christ.
Speaker 3 (52:56):
Yeah, the Spanish half birds are met up.
Speaker 1 (53:01):
There's a there's this lady on TikTok. She does like
uh the like flow charts on on Royalty like, yeah, well,
diagram for.
Speaker 2 (53:14):
The Spanish Habsburgs is a circle.
Speaker 1 (53:16):
Yeah, I may have to we may have I may
have to do that one day. Sit there with a
big old piece of paper and do like a fucking
a fucking diagram of of the Habsburgs. I have a
big old roll of brown craft paper and it will
(53:37):
probably take up.
Speaker 2 (53:38):
That's exactly what the Spanish hapsburg and diagram is a
big old rule.
Speaker 1 (53:43):
Yeah. It's one circle there.
Speaker 3 (53:49):
There there is no end to the jokes that you
can make about the Spanish Habsburgs.
Speaker 1 (53:56):
It's a whole. It's one circle.
Speaker 3 (54:00):
It's like that looks finish as that's not what made
the circle be unbroken.
Speaker 4 (54:04):
Its supposed to be about.
Speaker 1 (54:05):
Yeah, Oh I'm going to hell. She's making the handbag
of the hand basket as we speak.
Speaker 2 (54:20):
I need to find a handbasket that's big. I am
a big I'm a big in person in need of
a big hand basket.
Speaker 1 (54:26):
Yeah, anybody and anybody a get a nice big comfy
hand basket, uh to to give to Anna's on her
on her cushy journey to Hell.
Speaker 3 (54:42):
I need like a blanky and stuff in it.
Speaker 1 (54:47):
A blanky, some pillows, some stacks, some snackis for the
ride down?
Speaker 8 (54:52):
Yeah oh yeah, but uh yeah, yeah it's this, this
production of Don Carlo or Don Carlos is gonna be
at the Wien.
Speaker 1 (55:07):
Yeah, like I was saying, I don't think the Ween
uh always.
Speaker 2 (55:14):
Always, We're always gonna make Look, it is not our
fault that we have brains of We have the sense
of humor of twelve year old boys ninety of the.
Speaker 1 (55:23):
Time we were we were We were raised in the
late eighties.
Speaker 3 (55:31):
Yeah. Look, I was raised on.
Speaker 2 (55:37):
I was allowed to watch Money Served as I was
allowed to watch Are You Being Served as a toddler,
and the primary running joke was about was about pussy.
Speaker 1 (55:45):
Yeah, so oh yeah, I was.
Speaker 3 (55:48):
Doomed from the beginning.
Speaker 1 (55:52):
Oh yeah, like I was. I watched Saturday Live. Now
you gotta unders Saturday Night Live and I are the
same age and I was watching it. Yeah when I
was little.
Speaker 2 (56:10):
So you would have been like watching you would have
been like a toddler learning learning it by.
Speaker 3 (56:15):
Watching John Belushi. Oh yeah, yeah, you never had a
chance either.
Speaker 1 (56:20):
No no, oh well.
Speaker 2 (56:31):
Look I didn't see anything else on on Opera Wire
that would have been.
Speaker 1 (56:36):
Ok okay, but uh yeah that so that is yeah,
so uh basically please, you know, we wanted to let
you guys know that Maria is coming out on Netflix soon,
so it should be out if if uh, if it
goes according to what they did last year with Meister,
it'll be out in November on Netflix. You know my
(56:59):
Stress on Neflix. Now, if you want to watch that
while you're waiting for Maria to come out, you know that, I'm.
Speaker 4 (57:09):
Sure like.
Speaker 1 (57:10):
And oh and by the way, if you want to
hear uh a Maria call is singing in it like
a clip of her singing in a movie that is
not about her. The best clip that they have that
I see. You can and you can, or you can
watch a whole movie, or you can find the clip
(57:33):
on YouTube is from Philadelphia. The scene where Tom Hanks
is listening to her singing La Mamma Morta from Andre
and he's describing like what she's singing about and that
(57:54):
is a beautiful version of her singing. But I suggest
looking for her singing Tusca because her VC darte, Oh
my god, her vc darte is just impeccable.
Speaker 3 (58:12):
She'd accept the encore.
Speaker 1 (58:14):
She would oh, she would like. I'm just saying, yeah, yeah,
she'd accept the encore. But you know seriously that I honestly,
(58:35):
I honestly, honestly go look for her in clips from
I think there should be a clip of her. There
should be a whole thing of her in Act too
of Tusca. I think that was the only thing they
It was recorded the Royal Opera House, and I do
believe that's the only thing they recorded was Act too.
(58:57):
So you want to you want to go, uh see that?
Don't find that? She was amazing. I've another another one
she used to sing was uh karabades medea or I
think yeah in French or I think it maybe the
(59:20):
French version of it.
Speaker 3 (59:23):
I mean, either way, it's not going to end well.
Speaker 1 (59:25):
No, no, no, no, yeah, you'll you'll wanna you'll want to
watch that, so uh yeah, so be on lookout for Maria.

one of the two of us ends up in Vegas
next April for WrestleMania.

Speaker 11 (01:06:20):
He's an e m T that people keep sending him
these things that look like they could be for below
the waist but are most definitely not.
Speaker 4 (01:06:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:06:32):
He's also got got a new little buddy on, a
little training buddy named Rob who's in his videos. He goes,
shut up, Rob, I'm educating the heathens. Yeah, the man
is hilarious.
Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
Oh my god, my.
Speaker 4 (01:06:52):
Favorite is the one one he mentions.
Speaker 3 (01:06:57):
He's just he's gonna make it the most uncomfortable driver
and he goes, oh, hey, is that a normal strip.
Speaker 2 (01:07:09):
Then the one about venom dragging coming out your butthole
and dragging you down the street, because that is not
for venom, that is not out of the realm of possibility. No, no, no,
So yeah, I'd love to hear him do like a
music themed one. Oh god, oh dear, we need to
(01:07:34):
like find some sort of musical thing and like tag
him in and be like, look, please, please.
Speaker 3 (01:07:41):
We really want to hear you do this. Yeah, like
we know that that is not what this is for,
but we just really really want to hear you do something.
Speaker 1 (01:07:51):
If we find like, oh oh oh, no, what, Oh god,
a wooden recorder, a wooden one of this recorders. You're like,
we play in school made out of wood.
Speaker 2 (01:08:10):
Oh oh yeah, or as he would say, oh no,
oh no, we have to find something music related that
has a flared bass so that it does like flared bass.
Speaker 3 (01:08:27):
And then he gets like tied up again and he
gets like gagged. During the video the last two I've
seen with him, he ends up gagged for saying something.
Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
Like that or or or how about uh or a
clarinet that has a flared base.
Speaker 3 (01:08:50):
On the one hand, I hate that we're coming up
with this. On the other hand, I feel like our
listeners would expect nothing less of us.
Speaker 2 (01:08:58):
Because we're, like I said, the point where ripping on
Domingo doesn't lose us listeners. We're pretty much gold to
do whatever we want as long as it's not outright eightful.
Speaker 7 (01:09:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:09:09):
Yeah, clarinet, I asked ironically.
Speaker 2 (01:09:16):
I actually played clarinet in elementary school. It was from
like fourth grade until.
Speaker 3 (01:09:25):
Summer before seventh grade.
Speaker 1 (01:09:28):
Yeah, flutes too narrow, doesn't have a flared base.
Speaker 3 (01:09:36):
Oh my god, Oh what did I start? You know

I'm saying this.
Speaker 1 (01:09:45):
I regret every decadonicular Now we're gonna be doing this
for the rest of the night. We get off here,

unhid ship we've said on the show, that's the one
that leads me to regret my life choices.

know last week we talked about last week with Invisible Soprano.
(00:42):
We have not heard a peep from miss Thang And
you know how big this is now? The New York
Times had an article about it. Can you believe that
The New York Times published an article about her bitchiness?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Like to the to the credit of the internet folks,
the vast majority of the comments on they were like
what the Basically I wanted to what the fuck?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Yeah, there are.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
A couple that say that they agree with her about
Encores messing up the flow of the opera, but.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
They completely disagree about how she handled it.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
So I would say that Stormy's the general consensus is
how she behaved was wrong. Yeah, But of course, because
this is the goddamn Internet.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Someone Christy and I both commented on the article. Someone
told me.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
That I had it backwards, and I was like, respectfully,
how did I get it backwards? Please explain it to me,
like I'm a small child. The best thing is they will, said,
I will, but I'm traveling now, we'll be back. It
has been seven hours. Still waiting.
Speaker 1 (02:08):

I said her wanting to Yah. Yeah, the donut thing,
the donut comparison and I and the best, uh, the
best comment I got was one hundred percent agree. This
(02:41):
is the best comment on this thread.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I'm like, hey, And of course that same person was like,
exception not the norm.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Excuse me to that. I say, your mom's the exception,

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Oh but yeah, so yeah, we have not heard anything
yet from from uh miss thaying so we we shall
we shall still keep you apprized but we had to
and and it's it's it's hilarious that like in that
in that Opera Wire article, it was odd it was
(03:29):
an audio clip, not it was the video was black,
but it was the audio clip and you could hear
her interrupting. Well, then uh, Anna showed me a clip,
a news clip from a Korean TV news show.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
And at least it.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Has her noping out during the encore.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
But after the curtain call.
Speaker 1 (03:53):

turns around and leaves. It's like, yeah, well I think,
fuck around and find out.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Mm hmmm.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
All right, well that is not what we're gonna what
we wanted to talk about today. What we are going
to talk about is a new movie that's that is
coming out. It's been in a few film festivals. It's
going to be at the a a Fi Film Festival soon. Uh,
(04:31):
and it's gonna be on Netflix, uh this fall.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
So we're really excited.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Yes, and it is the It is a biopic. It's
simply called Maria. It is a biopic about Maria. It's
a biopic. I'm sorry, Uh.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
What have you been replaced by the borg?
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Probably?
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Damn.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
It is a biopic that is about the last days
of La Divina when she was in Paris and like
her her final days and uh that yeah, this is
like the years after Aria Nassis and after she's retired
(05:16):
and everything. So we're anxious to see this now the
star of this movie. And it's amazing because we could
I could not. I honestly could not. I could tell
a little bit, but not really. She It's like, you know,
when she gets in these roles, she transforms herself. It's
Angelina Jolie. She's got the right face shape, she does,
(05:42):
she does, and so she she is, she plays La
Divina and let me see. Okay, So here we have
a This is from Classic FM and this is on
(06:04):
their website and this was dated August thirtieth. Maria Callis,
arguably the twentieth century's most influential opera singer, will be
portrayed by Angelina Jolie in a new film by Pablore Loraine.
Angelie Julie is starting as La Divina, the legendary opera
(06:25):
giva Maria Callis in a new biopic from Chilean director
Pablo Larine. Maria is set during the singer's final days
in nineteen seventies Paris, and is based on the quote
true accounts of Callus's life one film with music, passion,
and tragedy. The film is due to be released in
(06:48):
twenty twenty four on Netflix, so it said fall. So
at any point now between now and probably the end
of November, it's going to be released on Netflix. And
The biopic is directed by larryn with a screenplay by
Stephen Knight, who wrote Peaky Blinders.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Ooh yeah, the gun be good.
Speaker 5 (07:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
They previously collaborated on a twenty twenty one biopic Spencer,
starring Christen Stewart.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
As the one about Princess Diana.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
I heard really good things about that.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Yeah, so, the director said. Having the chance to combine
my two most deep and personal passions, cinema and opera,
has been a long awaited dream. To do this with Angelina,
a supremely brave and curious artist, is a fascinating opportunity,
a true gift. So here's everything you need to know
(07:53):
so far about Maria. Maria will tell the tumultuous, beautiful
and tragic story of the world's great operasinger, relived and
reimagined it during her final days in nineteen seventies, Paris
hailed by Leonard Bernstein as the bible of opera, Callous
remains one of them of opera's most adored figures. By way,
(08:15):
there is a not to not to go off on
too much for a tangent. But there is a movie
about a Leonard Bernstein called Maestro Oh with Bradley Cooper.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Yeah, and it's where people going up in arms over
his prosthetic nose.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
And meanwhile Leonard Burnsy's family is like, no, guys, Dad
really looked like that.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Yeah. Let me see where we can see it? Why? Oh?
It is on Netflix yo, also on Netflix, Okay. A
leading exponent of the belcanto works a Blini and Rossini,
the New York born Greek soprano was also widely celebrated
(09:01):
for her Veriti and Puccini interpretations. A recording of her
singing Tosca in nineteen fifty two is considered unparalleled. Calus's
story has also been colored by events in her personal life,
including her relationship with aristotle Onassis, who left her unexpectedly
to marry Jackie Kennedy, the former First Lady of the
(09:22):
United States. The singer spent her the last years of
her life living in isolation in Paris and died of
a heart attack just aged just fifty three. So who
is cast in Maria as Angelia Jolie? Of course, the
American actor told The Hollywood Reporter in twenty twenty two,
I take very seriously the responsibility to Maria's life and legacy.
(09:46):
I will give all I can to meet the challenge.
And the cast also includes Pierre Francesco Favino, a Roorvaker,
Ha Luc bigr Uh, Cody Smith McPhee, and Valeria Gallinos
(10:08):
mc McPhee is really good. Yeah he was in Elvis.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
Who did he play in Elvis? Because I know Austin
Butler was Elvis, But who did Cody s play?
Speaker 1 (10:19):
I'm not I'm not sure, Okay, So what is the
music in Maria? And will Angeline Julie be singing?
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Let's see. Uh. Angelina Julie revealed she trained for almost
seven months to give a convincing impression of being an
opera star in the biopic. We will hear some of
Julie's voice mixed with Maria Callas sent recordings. Uh. The
director explained, opera requires a very particular style of singing.
(10:51):
The pitch, the color, the breathing, the posture. We recorded
Angie's voice and mixed it with Maria different levels. Sometimes
it's a tiny bit Angie and most Maria. Sometimes it's more,
but it's always there. It's likely callous to signature Aria.
Casta Diva from Belini's Aria Opera Norma will feature in
(11:11):
the film. Jolie revealed at a press conference that her
relationship to the word diva had changed through Casta Diva, saying,
I think I've relearned that word through Maria and Costa Diva,
and I have a new relationship to It's see here
and it says when will Maria be released? Shooting took
(11:36):
now this start. This was started filming in October twenty
twenty three and wrapped up at the end of December
of last year. Shooting took place. Shooting took place over
eight weeks across Europe, in Paris, in Greece, in Budapest
and Milan. Hungary is notably where Joli made her own
directing debut thirteen years prior, when she filmed In the
(11:57):
Lane of Blood and Honey and Uh. The biopic is
produced by Fabulous Pictures. One did One Didas Larne, Freemantle
Company's Apartment Pictures, Lorenzo Mieli and Kamlesen Films Jonas Dornbach.
Maria had its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival
(12:19):
on August twenty ninth, and is expected to be released
on Netflix in the UK at a later date. But yeah,
so it said in the fall. So uh, and I'm
sure that's gonna be the US as well. So so
I cannot wait to see that, nor can I.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Oh, we're gonna We're gonna make it a day.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
Oh yeah, that's gonna be a Saturday.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Yeah, that's gonna be. That's gonna be a Saturday right there.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
And we'll take from our take a break from cackling
at heels to oh yeah, to show Maricallis some respect.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Yes, And while we're at it. While I'm at it,
I'm going to read about Maestro since I mentioned that,
might as well, Yeah, might as well. Bradley Cooper direct

was dated from last September. September twenty twenty three. Bradley

I was told by my nephew, you have to watch Oppenheimer.
I have watch that. I have to watch that, like
I've heard it was good.

So uh, I know.
Speaker 2 (18:05):
Robert Downey Junior won an Oscar for the One Who's
All One for being in that.

Really?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
And how did how did uh Ryan Gosling get nominated
as for his role as Ken and Margaret Roby not
getting dominated as Barbie.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
I think Brian Goslin complained about that. That's bullshit, Like
I'm pretty sure I remember hearing that he complained about
something with the nominations and the people were applauding him
for complaining.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
So I think it was the fact that he got
nominated but Margot Roby didn't.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
And and America far Eric got nominated for her role
in Marbi.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
I think he was complaining that he got nominated but
both the girls didn't.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
It's like, the fuck not bullshit, that's bullshit.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I still love how Johnson and his manager told him
not to take the cameo as the mermaid Barban.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
He's like, fuck you, I do what I want.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Yeah, although when you watch the movie, we don't see
any mermaid.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I mean you see hair and a tail and there's
just no face. It was really creepy and weird.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
No.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
Yeah, I mean that's one where I don't.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
Think we can actually keep that joke up. Yeah, it
was just too perfect.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
He was just like, Yo, I'm doing it, y'all, can't
fucking stop me.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
But yeah, it was yeah, Miesro. To get back to
what we were talking about him, Yeah, so Maistro was
nominated for had all these nominations, and let's see, see
we've called we've collated everything we know about the production
so far from the story. It will tell to who
(20:15):
has lent their hand to bring Bernstein's story to the
silver screen. Now, Bernstein uh Was has been known for
more than just being the composer West Side Story. He
was He was a pianist. He was also a great conductor,
like I conducting.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
If you watch it, it is absolutely hysterical.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Oh yeah, because he was the one who got so aw.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
Like he could out.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
He'd be like, all that's okod stuff.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
He'd be like completely dishoveled, like he stuck his figure
in an electrical socket.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
By the end of it.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Oh yeah, it was.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
It was amazing, but also fucking hilarious.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Oh yeah. Like you see all these conductors now, they
look you know, they they look a little a little
sweaty at the end of like even the ones.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
That get really into it, like a gang gets really
into it, but still manages to look fairly put together.
Looks like he conducted with one hand and stuck a
fork in on an electrical socket in the other.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
He looks like he he looks absolutely wrecked as shit
at the end of Yah, yeah, like.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
Somebody was below the podium doing inappropriate things.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Yeah he does. He looks, he looks, he looks fucking wrecked. Okay,
it's hilarious. So the film will tell the story of
Bernstein's life, with a specific focus on his marriage to
his wife, Chilean American actress Felicia Monte monteign Monte Monte Alegre.
(21:50):
I had to stop for every minute. Felicia Monteleegre. Meister
follows Bernstein throughout his relationship and marriage to the actress,
from when the pair met at a party in nineteen
forty six up to up until her death following a
struggle with lung cancer in nineteen seventy eight. Over the
past few years, Cooper has worked closely with Bernstein's three children, Jamie, Nita,
(22:13):
and Alexander, to bring their father back to life on
the big screen.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
That's great, Yeah, and that's why I was saying, why
are people bitching about the nose and stuff?
Speaker 3 (22:23):
He was working with the kids. Yeah, the kids would
have approved.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
That, Like they knew dad had a big and that'd
be like if somebody tried to make a biopic of f.
Marie Abraham and like they complained because they gave him
a prosthetic dose.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
It's like, motherfuckers, Like you've seen his face.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah, seriously, Okay, so Bernstein. Jamie Bernstein told Classic FM
in twenty twenty two, we are very touched actually that
it's not that it's not a biopic strictly speaking, it
(23:02):
doesn't tell the story of Leonard Bernstein from birth to death.
It's not that kind of a film at all. It's
a portrait of our parents' marriage, so it's about something
very specific and very personal for us. We're really struck
by the fact that this was the aspect of the
story that Bradley wanted to focus on, and we're very
excited about the actress who's going to play our mother
(23:25):
and Zach who carry Mulligan played. Yeah. Cooper is both
directing and starring in the musical bio Pick and starring
as his titular character, Leonard Bernstein. Playing Bernstein's wife is
Cooper's co star, British actress Carrie Mulligan. The film has
received some backlash from the LATINX community due to Mulligan's
(23:46):
casting as Felicia monte Legre was Chilean. American Golden Globe
winning actor Matt Boehmer plays to clarinetis David Oppenheim Why,
while American actress Amya Hawk plays Bernstein's eldest daughter Jamie.
Among the high profile producers involved with the Fit in
(24:07):
the film are legendary American directors Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg.
A when the first murmers of a biopic about Bernstein began.
Spielberg himself was considering directing the proposed film, but, as
Cooper told Stephen Colbert on a late night show last year,
the director ended up passing on the project to a
(24:30):
Story is Born actor instead. Spielberg happened to know I
had this obsession with conducting, Cooper said on the late
night talk show. And he told me about this project
called Maestro. I asked him, are you really going to
direct this? And he said, I'm probably not going to
direct this. So I asked him to watch A Star
Is Born, which is Bradley Cooper's direct toil Daybut and
(24:53):
I said, if you like it, I can I research
Londer Bernstein and figure out out what the story could be.
Spielberger red, and while watching a coloring of A Star
Is Born, the director was so impressed by the film
that he told Cooper, you're fucking directing Maestro.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
Yeah, yeah, I mean, I'm not surprised.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
This is the guy that cast the young woman and
I can't remember her name, the young woman who played
Lex in Jurassic Park by playing videos, by listening to
different videos of the kids screaming, and cast her because
her screaming brought Kay capture running out into the room
(25:36):
to check on their kids.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Oh geez.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Yeah, so that definitely sounds like us.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
And I mean you've seen the pictures of Spielberg fucking
around on the set of Jaws, So yeah, like, yeah,
that is definitely a thing Steven Spielberg would do.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Yeah, Burnist, Now this is what music will feature on
the Meister soundtrack. His own music will feature in the film,
as Cooper acquired the rights from the Bernstein estate to
do so in twenty twenty, putting an end to a
potential spat with actor Jake Chillenhall, who was also planning
a biopic on the conductor. Sorry Jake Jillenhall, uh uh
(26:19):
from the casting details.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Honestly though, I mean I love Jake Jellenhall, excellent actor.
I think Bradley Cooper would would end to do the
better draw because like, facially he resembles on our Burnstein.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Oh he does.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
Yeah, they didn't have to do They wouldn't have had
to do as much prosthetic work.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
They didn't have to do as much prosthetic work on
him as.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
They might have had to with Jake Jillen Jake Chillenhall
has that has that baby face.
Speaker 3 (26:49):
Yeah, and he has a longer face.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Yeah, like there's more, there's more cheekbone, yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
And stuff like.
Speaker 2 (26:59):
And unfortunately he's he's not like Sam Rockwell who just
has to grow a beard out and makes mom nearly
faint because he looks so much like like the Bob
Fossey that she remembered yeah when he did Fossy Burgin.
But Bradley Cooper, on the other hand, has the kind
of face that you can kind of like just only
have to do a little bit with oh yeah, in
(27:20):
terms of making him look like someone.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Oh yeah, Like there's this pic, there's this picture of
him on this classic FM article, and I can't. I could.
I thought it was Bernstein. I thought it was Lennard Bernstein.
It's Bradley Cooper. It's like, surprise, motherfucker, Holy shit, Okay.
Speaker 3 (27:49):
It's Bradley. Bitch.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
Yeah, from the.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Casting details of the film. Let me get no. Let
me let me while I'm thinking of it, show you
that article and you can scroll down and you'll see
because good god, let me let me see here jeebus.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
That face.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Okay, there I message to it.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
Okay, has.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Because there's there's a black and white picture, and then
there's a then there's a color picture, right, you know, like.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
The poster.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah, there's the poster, and then there's the black white pic.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
The black and white picture I can tell just because
I know that smile fucking anywhere, yea.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
And then the next one down.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Yeah, it's him as that's the Lendar Burnstein.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
And I remember I thought that.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
I thought that was actually a picture of Burnstay until
I read the caption. That's how good brother caper. Okay,
let's see from the casting details of the film, my
American actor Michael Yury is listed as portraying Jerome Robbins.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
I like Michael Yury. He's awesome.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
He was the bitchy best best friend on Ugly Betty
Oh okay, and was one of my favorites on there
oh oh.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Robin's most notably conceived, choreographed, and directed Bernstein's Wealth West
Side Story, which opened up Broadway in nineteen fifty seven.
So as lightly, we can't expect to see the musical
featured in the film.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
So well, here's where I'm gonna get shouted at by people,
probably I Apart from the music, I cannot stand Westside Story.
I have never liked it, and I think it's because
it's supposed to be Romeo and Juliet.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
And I've never liked Romeo and Juliet either.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
I I find the music and the songs, I absolutely
fucking oh yeah, I do. I just I can't watch
the movie without getting irritated.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
I cannot. I find it. I find the movie itself.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Which sucks because I love Rita Moreno and Russ Hamblin
and George Chakaras are incredible dancers.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
And choreograph everything.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
It's so wonderful, and it's a movie that, by all
accounts I should like.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Yeah, I just I can't.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
I get, you know what I find I find watching it,
listening to the soundtrack and everything. All the music is fine.
I love the music, but it is I think because
it's me.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
It's supposed to be Romeo and Juliet.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Yeah, and I can't.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
I've never ever liked Romeo and Juliet.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
Yeah, Like I've never even been I haven't even been
able to.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Like. They made us sit through the one with Leonard
Waiting and Olivia Hussey in ninth grade English, and the
only reason we all paid attention is because a bunch
of us were Austin Powers fans and recognized Michael Yorke
right away.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Ah, like the only reason.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
We paid attention that and and and uh Leonard Wayne's ass.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
We that was actually censored and you know, rightfully so, yeah,
because I think our English teacher had forgotten that that
was in there. Oh so and rightfully so given the
circumstances of that scene being in there. So yeah, even
though he was of age at the time. Yeah, but no,
(31:34):
we just I think all of us in my class
were just like, these are all idiot teenagers?
Speaker 3 (31:42):
What the hell? Oh is this a great romance?
Speaker 4 (31:46):
No?
Speaker 3 (31:47):
I can't even I can't even watch the ninety six one.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
And that sucks because Harold Parano is like the best
mercutio ever.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Oh yeah, that one was.
Speaker 4 (31:58):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
I just hate I the ninety sixth version of Romeo
and Juliet. Okay, the concept was good. Bath Lorman's concept was,
you know, he had he had a good concept behind it.
But it's just I just found it just very that
it was just fucking tedious, like god, you know, and.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
It's not a lot of people have said that, like
it's tedious until like for anything that Racuccio is not in,
which is you know, understandable.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
Yeah, but I was like, uh.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
Good, mean, like I just I can't do Romeo and Juliet,
the only it's the only Shakespeare one that I just
cannot do.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Yeah, I've I've wanted to watch the old version before,
you know, because I've watched it like a long time ago.
I just can't bring myself to watch it. It's just
it's like, God, yeah, I can watch I can watch Hamlets,
I can watch Macbeth. I can you know, like the
(33:03):
the uh I want to watch I want to watch
the one with Denzel Washington in it. But I don't
have Apple Zel, but I don't have Apple TV. We do?
Speaker 3 (33:20):
We do? Oh you bitch, don't worry.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
I'm already running through my brain being like, hmm, what
can we.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
What might we be able to do?
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Yeah? Because because I be able to help because uh zaying,
my nephew watched it. He he has Apple TV. He
was able to watch it. I'm like, God, damn it.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
I want to see the I think it was McBeth.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
I want to see the one with Marion Kataer and
Michael Fassbender. I'll tell you the like, but yeah, Denzel, Holy,
Denzil takes priority. Yes, Dunzel Washington has taken priority since
like the nineties. Yes, I just keep I just remember
(34:09):
being like a young youngers are watching The Crown Family
and Sugar Mom would just be like ooh Denzil and
being like she knows what's up.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
I mean, I'm pretty sure everyone was like, oh, Denzil.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Okay, So so back to Maestro. Uh, let's see.
Speaker 3 (34:38):
You find out the opera stuff. By the way, once
we're done with Maestro.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
Yeah. Alongside Bernstein's own music, Cooper revealed to the SmartLess
podcasts host last year that, as part of the biopic,
the titular.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
Biopic biopic, I'm sorry, what.
Speaker 3 (34:56):
Did you drink today, Krista?
Speaker 1 (34:59):
Well, did you drink?
Speaker 3 (35:01):
Did you drink original formula diet coke?
Speaker 1 (35:05):
I have? I you know what, last night I did
a bad thing and it must have affected me. I
had like half a glass of iced tea and I
mixed the rest of my diet coke with it, and
I think that's what happened.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
You made you made non alcoholic milord?
Speaker 4 (35:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (35:24):
What yeah?
Speaker 3 (35:26):
Maybe no, maybe my orange caprine has infected you.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
M I didn't get the brain. I had to give
up the brain cell today. Sorry, guess I don't have
the brain cell either.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (35:42):
So so as part of as part of the biopic, okay,
the titular character will be seeing conducting Gustav Mahler's Expansive
Resurrection Symphony, which is Symphony number two in C minor
at Ellie Cathedral in England.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
But who's going to be conducting Kyle's mom is a
bitch in D minor. No sorry.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
It is one of the largest Gothic cathedrals in the world,
Cooper told the podcast host. And I'll be there live
conducting it with a one hundred and eighty chorus seventy
four piece orchestra. We can't we just cast these incredible singers.
It's going to be. I can't even who knows if
it'll work because because we're going to do it live.
But it either works or it does it now from
(36:34):
what I heard, from what I heard Bradley Cooper and
I've heard, like I think other conductors said this, he
could actually stand there and in his own, on his
own conduct an orchestra. From all that practice he's gotten,
(36:54):
he could probably conduct his own damn orchestra on his own.
I'm like Jesus, Maestro. This is when is Weister released?
And how can I watch it? Maistro arrives in select
theaters on November twenty second and lands on Netflix on
December twentieth. This is last year. The biopick will premiere
at the Venice Film Festival between August thirtieth and September ninth.
(37:18):
Adding to this in an episode of this SmartLess podcast
podcast last year and and by the way, the SmartLess
podcast is hosted by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
Yo, yeah yeah, and it says, it says.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
The podcast episode was made available less than a month
after first look pictures were released by Netflix from the
set set of the biopick Let's see here. Yeah oh,
it says. Each year Netflix releases a selection of films
in time for Award season, All Quite on the Western Front,
(38:04):
which triumphed over the twenty twenty three award season premiere
at a film festival on September twelfth, twenty twenty two,
before being released a month later on the streaming service.
So that's what they did with Maestro, and that's what
they'll probably do with Maria area, so if there is, so,
(38:26):
it's already been released in Venice, so it'll probably be
released either late October or early November. I can't wait.
I can't either. I think maybe between now and when
it comes out, like in the next month or two,
(38:47):
we should watch Maestro in between lower waiting, we should.
Speaker 2 (38:52):
Or we should do a double feature day ooh.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
Ooh that sounds good. That sounds even better. That sounds
even better. I like that.
Speaker 4 (39:08):
I do.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
I do remember seeing like on on YouTube clips of
I think it was Christa Christa Ludvig uh with uh
Leonard Bernstein and also Jesse Norman, I believe. Yeah, so
he's conducted not only he has he conducted some really
(39:30):
awesome uh symphonies, he's also he's also conducted some very
great singers. So so yeah, uh so those are so
if you are so inclined, watch Maestro, watch when you know,
(39:51):
which is out now on Netflix, Watch Maria what Keep
keep a look at for Maria when it comes out,
which would probably be out if if if it goes
the same ways meister did last year, it'll be out
in November. Uh and uh. And if you're if you're
also so inclined. Go hop off, go find Macbeth and
(40:14):
watch that as well, because Denzel.
Speaker 3 (40:18):
Denzel, Denzel always Denzel.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
Yeah okay, oh yes, is there anything else we can
talk about?
Speaker 2 (40:28):
My goodness, yes, so I just found ah I accidentally
closed the browser here.
Speaker 3 (40:35):
So for.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
Rigoletto, yeah, this season they're doing the Barlet chair production again. Oh,
they're doing.
Speaker 3 (40:47):
Two different casts of course for the for it. So for.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
The January performances, Lucas Salcy's gonna be going to be
taking on the role alongside Pinipatti and Aaron Morley. Oh,
Rehab Chaib is making her met role as Madelena, and
Solomon Howard is going to be spar for Shili, and
(41:19):
then Michael Chioldi is going to be seeing the title
role on for the last performance. But for the fall performances,
Queen Kelsey's coming back. Oh he was awesome yep, and
it's going to be him, Stephen Costello and Nadine Sierra
(41:41):
along with Jennai Bridges, Solomon Howard and Anti Jacunica. Oh
and Pierre Giorgio Mirandi is conducting. Then for the January ones,
Maricchio Benini's correct conducting.
Speaker 7 (41:57):
Oh, I love pum Kelsey, Quen Kelsey's a and and
Pennett and and uh Pene Pati he is he's one
of those up and coming tenors to watch.
Speaker 1 (42:10):
Uh he's he's wonderful. He's wonderful. Uh he Oh.
Speaker 2 (42:20):
They're also I also found Accorin and Joshua Guerrero's Don
Carlo is going to be broadcast on r TV and
or three. Yeah, broadcast on the twenty ninth of September.
Speaker 1 (42:34):
Yeah, so o r F three Yeah, so o. R
F three is the Austrian is an Austrian channel. You
can find that. Uh, you'll have to have a VPN
for it, because I had to have it. I watched
Jonas on his show on a R on a r
(42:56):
D last night, which is the German public television station,
and you had to have I had to have VPN
to watch it. But uh, that's a that's a new
production of Don Carlo, uh by Carol Sarah bennikoff of
(43:16):
Parsival fame, and uh that should be really good. That
should be really good. And because it's called Don Carlo
and not Don Carlos, well.
Speaker 3 (43:29):
It says Carlos the ass.
Speaker 2 (43:33):
Oh really yeah, the Bienna, the Wien, the Wien is doing.
Speaker 3 (43:40):
It is Don Carlos.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
It must be well, see because because the difference is
what's called Don Carlo, it's the Italian version and Don
Carlos is usually the French version. So now that so
it's probably the French version.
Speaker 3 (44:04):
Uh oh we we but get what are you doing stepmother?
Speaker 5 (44:10):
Yeah you're welcome, by the way, but yeah, face that
that would be good because uh it's a new version
(44:33):
of Uh, I'm not like.
Speaker 1 (44:38):
See, I like see I watched I watched David McVicker's version,
which is beautiful, Okay, And then we've seen we've seen
the one that Jonas was in Vienna. We saw We've
seen the one that was at the met before.
Speaker 4 (45:00):
And I've seen.
Speaker 1 (45:01):
Uh what was it?
Speaker 4 (45:07):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (45:10):
And there have been other versions, but uh there like
it's just you have to be careful with that because
it is a even though it's it's not historically accurate, Okay,
(45:31):
even though it's not historically accurate, it's still in a
certain time period. So I'm not completely like I've I
did see a picture of it. I'm not completely you know,
Don Carlos is like it's like Andreas, you can't take
(45:57):
it out of the time period that it's in. Okay,
you have a hard time doing that because then it
doesn't make like the language it uses, like when it
talks about the Grand Inquisitor, when it talks about Flanders,
when it talks about you know, things like that Filled
(46:18):
the second being the King of Spain and Charles the
second being, you know, the Charles, Charles being emperor, the
old Emperor. It doesn't it doesn't make sense if you
take it, if you put it in a different setting.
Speaker 2 (46:38):
The only way that you could make that work is
if you had to be moved it up to like
pre nineteen eighteen, yeah, because then there was still there
was still an at least one emperor.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (46:52):
So unfortunately it still wouldn't work because it would be
Wilhelm rather than Charles.
Speaker 1 (46:59):
Yeah, because there was not a Yeah, because this is
like the old Spanish. Yeah, the old Spanish king. The
king's wrong, wrong.
Speaker 3 (47:12):
Branch of the Habsburgs.
Speaker 1 (47:14):
Yeah, but it's.
Speaker 2 (47:18):
Like we're talking about the branch of the Habsburgs that
was there was an arrow.
Speaker 1 (47:23):
Yeah, it's just it if it was.
Speaker 3 (47:26):
The Habsburg family tree that was a that was a wreath.
Speaker 1 (47:30):
Yeah, it's oh god, the branch of the Habsburg whose
motto was I'm my own grandpa.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
Oh my god, it really was, It really really was.
Speaker 4 (47:54):
Do you think they like literally.
Speaker 2 (47:56):
The last one, technically the last living habits and ash
Habsburg monarch like basically had one set of great grandparents
because that is Red.
Speaker 1 (48:09):
Was he his own grandpa?
Speaker 3 (48:14):
He very well could have been. The marriage produced zero children.
Speaker 1 (48:21):
Thank god. Yeah, it's the it's it's one hundred years
of solitude, but royalty, Oh god.
Speaker 4 (48:36):
The Spanish.
Speaker 2 (48:37):
If porn Hube existed back then, the Spanish Habsburgs would
have had their own section.
Speaker 1 (48:41):
Yeah, seriously, if Mad, what nst thou doing is stepmother?
I can't believe. I'm I can't believe I got to
make one hundred years of solitude joke.
Speaker 3 (48:56):
Oh god, I can't believe. I immediately followed that a
pornhobe joke.
Speaker 2 (49:07):
But I mean if the Spanish Absberg's literally, crazier things
have happened.
Speaker 3 (49:11):
For example, Don Carlos himself.
Speaker 1 (49:14):
Yeah, good lord. Now there are two ways that Don
Carlos died. He could have either starved to death like
his dad, walked him like Philip, locked him away and
starved him to death, or he could have died of
pneumonia because his favorite thing to do was to sleep
(49:36):
naked on a block of ice.
Speaker 2 (49:38):
Sleep ass naked on a block of ice. They're thinking
that's the one that's most likely to happen. That was
most likely to have happened because Philip apparently genuinely loved
his kids.
Speaker 3 (49:48):
Yeah, because that was his kid by his first wife.
Speaker 4 (49:53):
Yeah, it was also his cousin.
Speaker 3 (49:59):
Of course.
Speaker 2 (50:00):
Of course, how does I wonder how what the Spanish
translation of I'm my own grandpa is?
Speaker 1 (50:12):
And and we sat there and made it. Think of
how many years we've made fun of Mark Temperador for
being uncle Daddy.
Speaker 3 (50:26):
I don't love that one of the kids.
Speaker 2 (50:27):
I still love the de Norris's character on I think
it was Denorris's character on Clause was named uncle Daddy.
Speaker 3 (50:34):
And I'm like, wait a fucking minute, it's.
Speaker 1 (50:38):
His real name, Mar temper Door.
Speaker 4 (50:40):
Yeah, wait a minute.
Speaker 3 (50:41):
It's like, sir.
Speaker 1 (50:44):
By the way more Temperador. The reason we Grandpa, by
the way, well, the reason we Mark Temperador was a
goalie for the New Jersey New Jersey Devils for like
a ton of years, okay, New Jersey.
Speaker 2 (50:57):
Yeah, I think of that every time I hear Fred
Armisen saying that in that voice every time I see
lip more, Oh.

he was a goaling for the New Jersey Devils for
like umpteen gazillion years. And what happened was he was
married to his first wife, okay, but then he turns
around and has an affair with her sister, okay, and
(52:10):
he divorces his first wife and marries the sister and
they have kids. So yeah, that's why we call him
uncle daddy because he had kids with his first wife too.
(52:31):
That's why we call him uncle daddy. That's but like
I but like we were like we're saying that's that's
a drop in the bucket compared to the Spanish Halfsburgs.

production of Don Carlo or Don Carlos is gonna be

Speaker 1 (55:07):
Yeah, like I was saying, I don't think the Ween
uh always.
Speaker 2 (55:14):
Always, We're always gonna make Look, it is not our
fault that we have brains of We have the sense
of humor of twelve year old boys ninety of the.
Speaker 1 (55:23):
Time we were we were We were raised in the
late eighties.
Speaker 3 (55:31):
Yeah. Look, I was raised on.
Speaker 2 (55:37):
I was allowed to watch Money Served as I was
allowed to watch Are You Being Served as a toddler,
and the primary running joke was about was about pussy.
Speaker 1 (55:45):
Yeah, so oh yeah, I was.
Speaker 3 (55:48):
Doomed from the beginning.
Speaker 1 (55:52):
Oh yeah, like I was. I watched Saturday Live. Now
you gotta unders Saturday Night Live and I are the
same age and I was watching it. Yeah when I
was little.
Speaker 2 (56:10):
So you would have been like watching you would have
been like a toddler learning learning it by.
Speaker 3 (56:15):
Watching John Belushi. Oh yeah, yeah, you never had a
chance either.
Speaker 1 (56:20):
No no, oh well.
Speaker 2 (56:31):
Look I didn't see anything else on on Opera Wire
that would have been.
Speaker 1 (56:36):
Ok okay, but uh yeah that so that is yeah,
so uh basically please, you know, we wanted to let
you guys know that Maria is coming out on Netflix soon,
so it should be out if if uh, if it
goes according to what they did last year with Meister,
it'll be out in November on Netflix. You know my
(56:59):
Stress on Neflix. Now, if you want to watch that
while you're waiting for Maria to come out, you know that, I'm.
Speaker 4 (57:09):
Sure like.
Speaker 1 (57:10):
And oh and by the way, if you want to
hear uh a Maria call is singing in it like
a clip of her singing in a movie that is
not about her. The best clip that they have that
I see. You can and you can, or you can
watch a whole movie, or you can find the clip
(57:33):
on YouTube is from Philadelphia. The scene where Tom Hanks
is listening to her singing La Mamma Morta from Andre
and he's describing like what she's singing about and that
(57:54):
is a beautiful version of her singing. But I suggest
looking for her singing Tusca because her VC darte, Oh
my god, her vc darte is just impeccable.
Speaker 3 (58:12):
She'd accept the encore.
Speaker 1 (58:14):
She would oh, she would like. I'm just saying, yeah, yeah,
she'd accept the encore. But you know seriously that I honestly,
(58:35):
I honestly, honestly go look for her in clips from
I think there should be a clip of her. There
should be a whole thing of her in Act too
of Tusca. I think that was the only thing they
It was recorded the Royal Opera House, and I do
believe that's the only thing they recorded was Act too.
(58:57):
So you want to you want to go, uh see that?
Don't find that? She was amazing. I've another another one
she used to sing was uh karabades medea or I
think yeah in French or I think it maybe the
(59:20):
French version of it.
Speaker 3 (59:23):
I mean, either way, it's not going to end well.
Speaker 1 (59:25):
No, no, no, no, yeah, you'll you'll wanna you'll want to
watch that, so uh yeah, so be on lookout for Maria.
Go watch maestro. You know, if you want to do

one of the two of us ends up in Vegas
next April for WrestleMania.
Speaker 9 (01:02:31):

few diamonds of the Varacci Museum doesn't need all of
them now.

the waist but are most definitely not.
Speaker 4 (01:06:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:06:32):
He's also got got a new little buddy on, a
little training buddy named Rob who's in his videos. He goes,
shut up, Rob, I'm educating the heathens. Yeah, the man
is hilarious.
Speaker 1 (01:06:50):
Oh my god, my.
Speaker 4 (01:06:52):
Favorite is the one one he mentions.
Speaker 3 (01:06:57):
He's just he's gonna make it the most uncomfortable driver
and he goes, oh, hey, is that a normal strip.
Speaker 2 (01:07:09):
Then the one about venom dragging coming out your butthole
and dragging you down the street, because that is not
for venom, that is not out of the realm of possibility. No, no, no,
So yeah, I'd love to hear him do like a
music themed one. Oh god, oh dear, we need to
(01:07:34):
like find some sort of musical thing and like tag
him in and be like, look, please, please.
Speaker 3 (01:07:41):

Oh oh yeah, or as he would say, oh no,
oh no, we have to find something music related that
has a flared bass so that it does like flared bass.
Speaker 3 (01:08:27):
And then he gets like tied up again and he
gets like gagged. During the video the last two I've
seen with him, he ends up gagged for saying something.
Speaker 1 (01:08:36):
Like that or or or how about uh or a
clarinet that has a flared base.
Speaker 3 (01:08:50):
On the one hand, I hate that we're coming up
with this. On the other hand, I feel like our
listeners would expect nothing less of us.
Speaker 2 (01:08:58):
Because we're, like I said, the point where ripping on
Domingo doesn't lose us listeners. We're pretty much gold to
do whatever we want as long as it's not outright eightful.
Speaker 7 (01:09:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:09:09):
Yeah, clarinet, I asked ironically.

Summer before seventh grade.
Speaker 1 (01:09:28):
Yeah, flutes too narrow, doesn't have a flared base.
Speaker 3 (01:09:36):
Oh my god, Oh what did I start? You know
what this is? I think this is the first time
I'm saying this.
Speaker 1 (01:09:45):
I regret every decadonicular Now we're gonna be doing this
for the rest of the night. We get off here,
we're gonna do this for the rest of the fucking night.
Speaker 3 (01:09:58):

Speaker 4 (01:10:07):
But not damn it.
Speaker 1 (01:10:08):
Annah.
Speaker 2 (01:10:09):
Yeah, I did you know in the immortal words of
our truth, you know that that one's on me, that
that that's my bad.

unhid ship we've said on the show, that's the one
that leads me to regret my life choices.
