Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
And hello everybody. We are back you ye we and
welcome to the Opera Trash Podcast once again.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
I am Chrissa and I'm unemployed. No in all, seris
is my job that I've held for seven and a
half years. Six others permanent. The first one and a
half ish was temping. We lost the contract that we'd

(00:33):
worked on, so my official last day of work was
December thirty. First, I'm a free bitch.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
She's a free bitch, baby. Yeah, so I have more.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
Time to spend. I can take care of mom. If
I need to nap, I can nap, yes, which it's
also Shark weeks, so naps are like mandatory at this point.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Yeah. Yeah, uh so there hasn't been too much going
on in the upper world.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
I mean, some people are horrified that that some mad
opera folks are sponsors for at Palm Beach Festival where
goes performing. But really, honestly, at this point, what more
do you motherfuckers want her to do? Run up to
Putin and stab him? Seriously, I mean, like, what more?

(01:31):
What more can she do than she's already done. She
can't go back. She she does not have a DeLorean
or a tartist. She can't go back and change what
Her initial response was like, legit, what do you motherfuckers want?
What more do you want from her?

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Seriously?

Speaker 2 (01:53):
And she can't control us off iv Usov, So it's
not like that's gonna do anything good either.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
Yeah. Really, she's not married anymore.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
So yeah, although he's doing he's doing right by by
her kid though, yes, treating him like a kid. We like,
we like to see we like to see that, yes,
like we we love to see see things be amicable. Yes,
so yeah, like what more do you fuckers want?

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Seriously?

Speaker 2 (02:26):
At this point, it's it's literally like really, what more?

Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah, it's getting ridiculous, like like it's been like a
few years ago understandable, but now she's done basically.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
What's like, she's walked back at what people have asked
her to walk back. Yeah, she's Brisonna No Grada and
Russia anyways now at this point yeah, yeah, so point
so it's not like she'll be performing there anymore. But like,

(03:04):
what more do you people want? Things can't be done retroactively, No, no, seriously,
we have not heard anything more. That's what the Alexander
Hamilton fuck will y'all never be satisfied.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Yes, we have not heard anything more from Invisible Soprano either.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah, I think, well, actually let's check just to make sure. Yeah,
because God only knows, she tends to pop up at
the weirdest times. Yes.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
Now, Jonas has a concert in Book Arrest, which is
the first which which will be the first time he's
ever performed in Romania. And I'm certain that there's going
to be at least one interviewer out there who will
ask him about about Angela Gyrgio, because you know, she

(04:08):
is a taughter of Romania, but she you know, it's it, yeah,
which I would love to hear his response. I'm surprised
nobody's asked him at this point. He's actually he's actually

(04:29):
uh busy with the uh Tyrol the Tirila turler uh
the Tyrol Opera Festival in Errol, which by the way,
had ninety four percent attendance. He did spectacularly in this

(04:52):
winter season, so uh yeah, so you can't say it's
it's the boring uh opera festival. I think it was
the person heading it, because Jonis is there for the
next for this starting for six years, and he's gonna

(05:14):
kick some ass. I love it.

Speaker 3 (05:19):
But I don't done anything from her.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Yeah, I haven't seen anything from her.

Speaker 2 (05:24):
Oh good parent Tiaco had a polyp removed from her
sinuses that apparently was the size of a small apricot.
Oh Elchiese.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
Ow.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
She had to cancel Latravia performing in La Traviato at
Tiatro Carlo Felisee because of it. They wanted to They
said they could only do the surgery in winter to
avoid the allergen factors in Spiner summer.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
Yeah. Oh yuy oh oh oh Otto Shank died. Oh
that's right. Uh Now, if you are familiar, if anybody's
familiar with the METS production of lapo Am, he's the

(06:10):
one behind that that all the beautiful scenery and everything
in uh in their production. Yeah, he's the one that
did that. He's the one that he was the director
behind that.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
He's also responsible for the productions of My Stressinger Vone, Nuremberg,
pale Aramella and town Hauser at the met YEP. I
hate to say it, but regarding Tonhuser, but thanks for
the greatest nap I've ever taken during an opera, sir,

(06:45):
Nothing fucking happens, basically, no, no, and it's difficult.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
To follow it is it is? I mean, I mean
I can attest to it being a nap because I
went to listen to the record the audio of Jonas
singing in Tannhuser, and Uh, I fell asleep. I fell asleep,

(07:12):
like uh, I think it was right after the beginning
of it where you know, like like he's with he's
in the venus Berg where with uh with Aphrodite and
uh yeah, and then I fell asleep and I woke
up just in time to hear the song contest where

(07:35):
he like, uh where he like, you know, you know
where ton Hoiser declares his his boner for the for
the Venusberg and uh, and everybody's like, ah, you know
the year gross get away from me, you know, and

(07:55):
uh and then you know he's in then and you know,
he's told to go on a pilgrimage to Room and
hear what she does and even the Pope and then
at the end of it, even the Pope says you
you're a fuck up and yeah, basically that's what this

(08:16):
story is. And he's come back to redeem himself, uh
to Elizabeth and uh and he's too late because because uh,
she she she got so she was so upset waiting
for him that she just croaked.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
She rolled over and died.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
She rolled over and died.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
She's like, I would not be answering any more questions,
Luke Skywalker.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
Yeah, which, by the way, we watched last night and
we just had fun.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
We missed, we missed Yoda rolling over and dying to
avoid answering the questions. Yeah. You know, honestly, as an adult,
I'd completely understand that now, Like now I get why
he just wanted to roll over and die and not
answer any more questions at Like, it just makes so
much sense.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
So yeah, but uh yeah, but that's you know, and
that's the that's the that's the whole Yeah, the basic
premise user.

Speaker 2 (09:21):
But he like he went and got his his dick
wet in the Venusburg and then decided Nope, not going
to marry her.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
Mm hmm, and was like, I want to go back
to a penguin band meme.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
He was just trying to get his penguin dick wet.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
Yeah. But yeah, Audis Shank passed away. He was he
was the he was the guy behind all of those
like Don Pasquale. Yeah, the good that was hilarious. I
love that. And uh, is.

Speaker 2 (10:01):
That the one that the version we saw was on
and Marius and and Matthew Poland Zannie where she just
completely crashed the backstage interviews. Yes, that that was hilarious.

(10:21):
He wants to marry May Matthew Poland Zonnie looked so confused,
but at the same time like he was ready to
like Paul over laughing.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
Oh yeah, oh my child.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
But h and that's where we got our doctor men
is too headache joke, which generally is two headache.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
But uh, but I looked at the.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
Palm Beach gallon. It's because there's people that are on
like the met executive boards and stuff, are also sponsors
of the Palm each gallap. It's like, really, folks, we're
gonna make that much of a deal, a big deal
over it? Like he U was, folks, couldhould people get

(11:17):
a life? Please?

Speaker 1 (11:18):
I mean, you know, yeah, there's there's more that there's
more to life.

Speaker 2 (11:24):
Look, we don't. I mean, look, one could argue that
we need to get a life, but we have other hobbies.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
Yes, yeah, we have other things to do in our lives.
And yeah, yeah we ship post, we watch wrestling, We.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
We talked about dumb ways to die. We start, we
should steak up. You should start the next time we
watch opera an opera, we need to do dumb operatic
ways to die.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Oh god, yes, that'd be great.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
Yeah, that would that would be for a great future
episode stupidest stupidest deaths in opera.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
Yes, yes, And we.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
Could sing dumb ways to die.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Yeah. We we talked about the thing and we go
dumb ways. Yeah. Oh yeah. That that there's a good opa.
There's a good future opera future podcast.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
I may be half asleep from period exhaustion, but every
so often I come up with a good idea.

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Still. Oh but yeah, and but yeah, Like, like we said,
there has been a whole lot going on.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Yeah, there's there's not really been any drama. I mean,
the only like thing that could be considered dramatic news
is that Brent Turfle is retiring the role of Scarpia
at The matt Yeah, he's not gonna He's never after
this run off Tosca, He's not gonna play Scarpia anymore,
which I can. I mean, it's sad because he is

(13:09):
one of the absolute goddamn greatest Scarpias ever. But at
the same time, I can understand why you don't want
to play a vicious rapist constantly.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
Yeah, like one can understand. Oh, yeah, who was it?
Was it Lucas Saltzy? Was it Luka Salzy? He retired?
I think shit, I can't remember. I think he retired. Uh,

(13:43):
I think he retired. Uh no, he retired. I'm an Osro.
That's right, when he was when he played in Aida.
He retired. I'm an Osro. That's right.

Speaker 4 (13:58):
But uh, yeah, you know, the the the roles that
you are that a tenor or a bear tenor most
associated with Yeah, that it can get tedious after a while. Yeah,
I could see, like, for example, I could see Jonas

(14:20):
like saying, Okay, I this is the last time I'm
going to play this character. You know, just like maybe
one by one pick off a character that he retires,
and yeah, before he the day he.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
Retires, Dick Johnson is the day that Krista cries, Yeah,
Rebagel if you cry, yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
But it was like, because that was just like the
funniest name in opera, Like, honestly, Puccini literally picked out
the absolute goddamn whitest name he could think of.

Speaker 5 (14:59):
He did.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
I just happened to be the one that's also a
double penis euphemism. Oh god, oh fucking really, my good sir,
that's that's his name.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
That's that's really his name, sir.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
Well that that tells you a Puccini's mindset as well,
because he was a womanizer. I mean, this was guy
didn't get.

Speaker 3 (15:41):
A voter for Antie Oakley or something when he wrote that.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Oh, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (15:47):
I mean, honestly, he wouldn't have been the first, but he.
I think he was having it at the times that premiered.
I think he was having an affair with the with
the lead soprano.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
I think he was when a premiere to nineteen oh
wanted to Met, I think it had. I think he
was having an affair with Emily Destin. Oh well, but uh,
you know, and of course you like like the Puccini
is the guy, and and of course we we we

(16:29):
missed his one hundred the one hundredth anniversary of him,
uh fuck off, fucking off and dying. Uh, but uh,
the decency to finish the vast majority of his works
before he fucked off and died.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
Yeah, earlier, you just kind of like died mid performance. No,
you know what, this is too long? I'm out.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
Yeah, but you wrote it. But he like he was
in an affair with his with his uh second wife,
with his second wife, Elvira, for years before he actually

(17:14):
married her only because and he only was able to
marry her because her husband passed away. Well then, and
they had a child together while she was still married.

(17:39):
Well then, Yeah, dark and sordid secrets of the of
your favorite opera composers.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
I mean, don't know where you're as bad as Wagner.

Speaker 7 (17:53):
God.

Speaker 1 (17:57):

my Lord's appropriate, because yeah, he's a walking talking bottle of.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
Milord God, the Lord. Tonight's to night, you'll fight your dad.
I love that. Tonight's to night you'll fight your dad.
Oh I don't worry.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
Yeah, yeah. Look for those of you just tuning in
for the first time. Milort is a terrible, terrible drink
from Chicago. Yeah, the Lord's legitterally the only thing Chicago
should be ashamed of. And I have you want to
argue the gangsters, but look, yeah, I mean multiple states

(19:05):

you you you sit in the corner and think about
what you brewed.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
Meanwhile, our mutual friends from Chicago or like, why would
you do that to yourself? Yeah, just like we've We've

Speaker 1 (20:12):
In Chicago called the Nisse Lounge and it's in and
it's near Wrigley Field. Okay, it's maybe like a it's
a not a very it's a not a short walk,

Speaker 2 (20:28):
And it's a long it's a long walk if you've
actually had Milord, Yeah it.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
Is, but it is. Is I think Chicago's oldest continually
operating bar, because I don't think they've ever shut down
since they opened. And uh and they they're evil. Those
those fuckers at the nis A Lounge.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
Are the ones that made the baseball infused millort. Yes,
they fucking I say this is a member of the
toilight Ship posting group on Facebook. Those fucking degenerates.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
Yes they are. They have done. Jolly Rancherman Mallory.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
That's not too terrible. Yeah, as far as an idea goes, Yeah,
I mean, if the Lord's involved, it's always going to
be terrible. Unless we're referring to Sarah's cat, my friend,
our friend Sarah's cat. For when he's starts to act.
He's an orange cat, so he's a lovable dumbass by nature,

(21:40):
but when he starts to act egregiously stupid. Nowadays, Sarah
and her husband Bill have started to call him milort.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
Oh dear, but yeah, there's they're like they they've done
the jolly rate. They did cot. I believe they did
coffee infused malort one time. Uh, and their favorite one
to do every Christmas is candy cane flavor infused malort.

(22:20):
I'm like, okay, you know, just oh yeah, that that's
that's that's not good candy can. Yeah, because you've got that,
because you've got that. What I'm told is like like

paint thinner gasoline quality to it. Plus you've got and
plus you've infused it with peppermint, which okay, you know
now you just have peppermint flavored gasoline. You know, you're

(23:07):
better off drinking Averclear and gold blind, but seriously, you
want to try all out? Yeah, You're you're better off.
You're better off taking a shot Everclear and and uh
screaming and screaming and how it burns going down. But uh,

(23:28):

thought they were so fucking cool.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
I mean, as I understand it in standid, Zema was
actually pretty decent.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
It's okay, it's like alcoholic. I want to say, well, no,
it would I think it would be would have been
more like alcoholic spray, you know, like more like alcoholic
spray or alcoholic story maybe, but uh yeah, that's yeah,

(24:47):
that it's uh yeah. I I never I never indulged
because I was not cool enough to be able to
be invited to the drinking parties. But you know, you
know I heard, I heard enough about them, these you know,
the wild debauched gorings on on the weekends around you know,

(25:11):
with these with you know, the people I went to
high school with. That's why I hung out with stoners.
You knew what you knew what they were doing. It
was just consistency with them, so yeah, but anyway, yeah

(25:33):
that yeah, so I mean not you know, to get
back to where we were, what we were talking about. Yeah,

But what we can't have we can't have our We
can't have the interlude like they had at Corgy Dog like.

Speaker 2 (29:42):
So we have, we can't have tasteful sexty time. It
just has to be to quote, to quote John Stewart
from that chat Roulette bit ah penis in my face
that that's one of the best Daily Show segments.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Yeah, I would because of my face.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
But what are you doing here?

Speaker 1 (30:13):
Oh my yeah, we're gonna yeah that that we're showing
our age. But uh yeah, so that we're not here
to talk about that production. No we're not. We're not.
So what we did last Sunday, this is what we're
here to talk about. You know how we've talked about

(30:34):
the movie Maria now it's it's now out on Netflix,
and we sat down last week the two of us
and watched it finally, and.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
We needed a week to digest it because it was
it was good.

Speaker 1 (30:52):
It was watch it again, Oh yeah, but it but
we had to take a week two, you know, to
get over it. Because if you remember us talking about
like Champion Fire, shut up on my Bones, the hours,
those those operas that really hit you emotionally.

Speaker 2 (31:18):
Maria will Maria will emotionally destroy you.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
It will, it will. Now, First of all, I want
to say, Angeline and Jolie deserves any and all recogni
you know, recognition for her portrayal of Maria Kallis in
this movie.

Speaker 2 (31:42):
Yeah. She was absolutely incredible.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
She was uh and here's a fun fact that Anna
told me after we watched the movie. Now, I think
I think it was that she had taken seven months
of voice.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
Seven months of taken seven months. And this I actually
found out from my mom because Mom looked it up
on IMDb. She was curious. She took like seven she
took seven months of vocal training with an actual with
actual opera singers. And any of the scenes in Maria's

(32:20):
past where they're singing, those are She's lip sinking to
Perria callous, But any of the scenes set and modern
in like present time day where she's singing, it was
Angelina Jolie doing the singing, so which means the absolute
heartbreaking performance Visi d'Arte that ends the movie was all

(32:43):
Angelina Jolie.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
Yeah, that scene will wreck you the most.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
Yeah. There was also an insanely haunting use of unavertevelagrama
from Loliucier de More.

Speaker 1 (32:59):
Oh yeah, yeah that.

Speaker 2 (33:01):
Like and it's done in in instrumental.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
Yes, it's it's just it's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Oh. The way they used the music was just absolutely perfect.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
Yeah. Oh and by the way, the guy who plays
Aristotle Anassis looked much better than the actual Aristotle Anassis.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
Yeah. I've seen pictures of Aristotle analysis and I can't
imagine and well, I mean actually, I can't imagine why
people would have married him. He was rich. Yeah, but
looks if he got married at all before he got rich,
I can't imagine what redeeming quality there must have been

(33:44):
to convince the woman to marry him, because.

Speaker 1 (33:48):
Yeah, no, yeah, And it's funny because the actor kept saying,
I know, I'm ugly, I'm like the ugliest person in
this room, and it's like you're not. No, you aren't
the guy you're playing is but you aren't you? Yeah? Yeah,

(34:09):
it was. It was kind of.

Speaker 2 (34:11):
He looked like like a a like a live action
version of Carl from Up Like he looked like a
live action version of an Asthmer's character Carl from Up.
He did he was due to her way too precious

(34:33):
looking to play Aristotle and Nassis what the fuck seriously?

Speaker 1 (34:37):
And I can tell you what in the makeup and
like Angela and a Julie, you could you could tell
it was her, but she looked but her the makeup.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
And the it was enough. It was that it enhanced
her that she looked like Maria Kallis it did.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
And uh and it's just and it was like what
was it like the uh, the whole premise of it.
She's looking back at her life and it's like she's
doing an interview. But plot twists here. Spoiler alert, yeah,

(35:20):
spoiler alert, and plot twist. She's hallucinating because of because
of the medication she's taking all the drugs.

Speaker 11 (35:28):
Yeah, the drugs, drugs, drugs, yeah, drugs.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
No, yeah, there. She was on medication for a specific
disease that affected the her her vocal chords. What what
was it.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
Didn't she say this demato miocytis.

Speaker 7 (35:57):
Bringing up Wikipedia as we speak, because they had, because
there have been there have been like since since since
her death, there have been there's been a lot of
speculation as to what she was suffering from to make
her to bring about her vocal decline and these and
I believe.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
It was to Italian Yeah, to Italian yeah, and they
said that she suffered.

Speaker 2 (36:28):
She was too. Italian vocal researchers named Franco Fucia and
Nico Palo Pauli le revealed that her that she had
dramatic myocytis, a reconnective tissue disorder they caused a fit
causes the failure of the mousacles and ligaments, including the larynx.
They believe she was showing signs of this disease as

(36:49):
early as the nineteen sixties, and they cited in an
initial report by physician Mario Giacovazzo, who in two thousand
and two revealed that he had diagnosed callous with that
in nineteen seve tventy five. Treatment included cordicof steroids and
immunosuppressive agents which affect heart function mm HM. They also

(37:10):
this is and this is the cool part they analyzed.
They presented documentations showing one and how her voice changed
over time. They analyze using modern audio technology. They analyzed
live Callous studio recordings from the fifties through the nineteen

(37:32):
seventies looking for signs of deterioration. Spectrographic and analysis showed
that she was losing the top half of her range.
D you see. Observed vocal video recordings in which Callous's
posture seemed straight and weakened. He felt her drastic weight
loss in nineteen fifty four further contributed to reduced physical
support of her voice. Here's the big one. They also

(37:54):
examined restored footage of the nineteen fifty eight normal walkout
in a row, which basically that people will be like, oh,
she's temperamental data. They apply spectrographic analysis to that footage
and observed three things. One her voice was already tired, Two,

(38:14):
she was lacking vocal control, and most importantly, that she
was not lying. She legitimately had bronchitis and trachiatis at
the time of that, Yeah, that walkout, and they concluded
that the dramatic myocytas was already causing her muscles to deteriorate.
So anytime, so basically, anytime she claimed that she couldn't

(38:38):
perform because she was too sick, she wasn't lying, no,
genuinely was yeah.

Speaker 1 (38:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
So yeah, but yeah, all the drugs they would have
put her on for it. I imagined that immuna suppressed
of agents could not mix well with cortercow steroids.

Speaker 1 (39:05):
Yeah, and she was taking something else. She was taking
the other one, mandra Yeah that was like a mix
of like leudes and yeah, yeah, and she was taking
that and that's what was causing her the hallucinations.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
And she was also drinking a lot of alcohol, which
you know.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
Yeah, that's not good.

Speaker 2 (39:36):
Yeah, on top of the quartercous steroids. No, no, honey,
what is you doing?

Speaker 1 (39:41):
Yeah? But yeah, so that and and we know a
little bit about uh myaesytis because Bridget, our friend Bridget
has that, so uh and she.

Speaker 2 (39:56):
Started off not to combine it with with heavy alcohol use.
And it's definitely not with my lord mm hmm. You
can never escape the my lord.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
Yeah. But uh yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
But yeah, like these two vocal researchers, which if you
ask me, is the perfect field to look into this.
Oh yeah, proved that no, Maria Calis wasn't just being
a temperamental bitch. She genuinely was sick that night.

Speaker 1 (40:26):
Oh yeah, but I mean it's heartbreaking too to know
that she was you know, she that's you know, it
wasn't it wasn't her. Yeah, it wasn't just her, you know, like, oh,
I'm not going to ever sing again because I'm you know,

(40:49):
because I'm not what I used to be. It was
actually her voice that was in decline, and there was
a physical reason for it.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
Yeah, It's like the one thing that Aristotle of NASA's
couldn't really be blamed for.

Speaker 1 (41:03):
Yeah, oh yeah, yeah. And like pretty early on, you
can see like they they do this pretty early on.
And how I came to realize that she was hallucinating?

(41:26):
Was it yet? Like at the beginning of the movie,
she's like she's like sorting out her pills and she
and you could see the name on the one pillbottle,
Man Draves, and then she she's hallucinating this this TV
interview and she asked the interviewer what should I call you?

(41:50):
He goes Mandras.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
And yeah, Christa was like, oh yo, yeah.

Speaker 2 (41:58):
They also make a clue. They also make clear earlier
the like at the beginning of that she's been hallucinating
for quite some time, yeah, because they say, you know,
if the TV crew really is coming, yeah, then so
they like her staff knows that. Yeah, she's not been
well and been hallucinating for quite some time.

Speaker 1 (42:20):
Yeah. And this was this was this is like over
what the the last week I think it was of
her life, for the last few days of her life.
And yeah, it's so she's she's like going through and

(42:40):
I think a like when as you as you watch
the movie, you realize she knows her times up. Yeah,
she knows yeah, and that's why she's doing this, so
uh yeah, and then like and then that's why she

(43:01):
has that last gap that gorgeous the rendition of vc
dharty Ah but uh yeah, kudos to Angie for uh
for belting that out. That was that was beautiful and
that the way they staged it, uh to you when

(43:26):
it began is because you know, it's the last time
she hallucinates and she's it's it's just oh my god,
you know.

Speaker 2 (43:40):
It is.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
Yeah, it just wrecks you, it does it just it does,
it wrecks erects the funk out of you. And then
then at the end, like during the credits, to see
all these beautiful this beautiful footage of the real life
Maria Callas, it's like, oh my god, yeah, you look

(44:01):
at that, you're like that. Yeah, And she got as
closed as she could did to looking like her like wow,
you know, but yeah she did. And and of course
in the one and like there's in the one instance,
I didn't realize this, uh that like she was entertaining

(44:23):
for like her mother made hurt. Her sister entertained for
the Nazi troops, the American troops during the war in Greece.
And it wasn't just it wasn't just singing that'sh no, no, no,

(44:43):
that that was bad. That bad mom, bad mom. And
that's why she didn't have a very good relationship with
her mother.

Speaker 2 (44:52):
Get the spray bottle.

Speaker 1 (44:53):
Yes, no, yeah, that's that's why she didn't have a
very good relationship with her mother too, because it's like
you sold me out, and you sold me to these people.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
It's like you told me and my they implied her
sister had to perform for them too. Yeah, you said
it was her and her sister together. Yeah, bad Grecian mama.
Bad Yeah, no, no, no, but all in all, seriously,
I mean, it was an excellent movie.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
It was just, oh my god, like that. If it
doesn't get any kind of Oscar nomination for anything, I know,
I know, and she's gonna get the Best Actress nomination.
I swear to God. If that movie is not nominated

(45:51):
for Best Picture, A fucking fight, I fucking fight. I
don't care.

Speaker 3 (45:58):
I've no longer I fight.

Speaker 1 (46:03):
Like.

Speaker 2 (46:03):
I want to, honestly see it come down to a
fight between Angeline Jolie for Maria and Pamela Anderson for
the Last show Girl. Because the Last show Girl's been
getting insanely good reviews. Yeah, so I want to see
it come down to that. Yeah, you know. And honestly,
as much as I love Maria, I want to see
Pamela Anderson win as a fuck you to everyone who's

(46:26):
ever made fun of her as an actress.

Speaker 1 (46:28):
But I would accept that if if someone else has to.

Speaker 2 (46:31):
Win, and it absolutely can't be Pamela Anderson winning, then
I wanted to go to.

Speaker 1 (46:36):
Angela and Julie for Maria. Yeah, that's the only other.
That's the only exception. I that's the only win I
will accept if it can't be Angeline and Julie as
Pam Anderson.

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Yeah, she could, she'd or or no. There is one
other one, the woman that won at the Golden Globes
for Jisca Torres. Because I looked up the movie that
she that she won for I'm so and it's about
a woman who's whose politian husband was one of the
disappeared in Brazil. Oh okay, she she's an acceptable way

(47:14):
as well. Okay, her one was very much deserved. I
went and looked it up and it looks like a
really interesting movie. And I'll have to look it up
sometime to work, Like on the streaming services it's available
to actually watch it.

Speaker 1 (47:25):
Yeah, but yeah, so.

Speaker 2 (47:29):
Yeah, all in all, it just oh my. We were
initially going to do a double a double feature and
watch the Bradley Cooper biography biopic of Lennon Bernstay Maestro,
and we were like, you know what, No, we need
time to process before we do this. Yeah that would
so can theivably be a very very poor life choice

(47:51):
on our part? Yeah, if we subject to ourselves to
further human emotion.

Speaker 1 (47:56):
Yeah, because maestro, Yeah, meister by hisself is like it's
all about him and his wife. So we don't. We can't,
you know, we were like.

Speaker 2 (48:09):
No, we cannot, we cannot.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
Yeah, we're shredded as it is. But there was one thing.

Speaker 2 (48:14):
About about that, and that actually reminds me there's one
thing about Maria, but I'm not sure if it's true,
but if it was, it wouldn't have fucking surprised me.

Speaker 12 (48:23):
Yeah, And that was how they showed Aristotle on Nassis
basically wandering off to hit on Jackie Kennedy while JFK
was still alive.

Speaker 1 (48:36):
Oh yeah, I would not.

Speaker 2 (48:37):
Be fucking surprised.

Speaker 1 (48:39):
Because he well because he was yeah, because he was uh,
he was messing around with her sister.

Speaker 3 (48:46):
Well no, I mean that was the night that the
happy Birthday Mister President thing happened.

Speaker 1 (48:51):
Oh yeah, yeah, where.

Speaker 2 (48:53):
They showed that he was trying to go off and
flirt with Jackie. I wouldn't be surprised at all of
that happened, like, yeah, especially because he had at some
point datedly rads. Oh god, I can gratis rad Yeah yeah,

(49:13):
and then just and then marry up and married Jackie.
Mm hm. It's like he's like Henry the eighth Roland
going dude, bad idea. But yeah, it would not surprise
me at all of that had was actually true, and
he had actually tried to to flirt or seduce Jackie

(49:39):
while while JFK was still alive.

Speaker 1 (49:41):
And and of course perhaps Jackie accepted his attention because
of Jack's reputation.

Speaker 2 (49:50):
Because she knew Kennedy men couldn't keep it in their breches.
I mean, this current generation, our current generation of Kennedy
men can apparently no, but like not that one.

Speaker 1 (50:08):
Oh god, like well if we well, you know.

Speaker 2 (50:14):
All of that was true.

Speaker 1 (50:15):
Well r F K Junior is the is the outlier
because you know, he he has.

Speaker 2 (50:19):
Well, he has a brain worm, so.

Speaker 1 (50:23):
Half his brain is gone because it was eaten by
a worm. And and I want to kick him in
the in the in the nards just because he keeps
saying that vaccines cause autism and yeah, I yeah, just
it's like, have you not read the comprehensive Jeopanese study

(50:47):
that's out there? God get it, he's a he's he's
O r F K.

Speaker 2 (50:54):
Junior. He doesn't have to read yeh, Grandpa Joe Kennedy reincarnated.

Speaker 1 (51:01):
I swear, Oh my god, oh I what because.

Speaker 2 (51:10):
Yeah, the kid, that's the only way that you can
can account for him and amongst all the other Kennedys
of his generation that are actually decent human beings, is
that he's his grandfather reincarnated.

Speaker 1 (51:22):
Seriously, God Like, I hit a bear, so I and
I didn't know what to do with it, so I
just stuck it in Central Park because I was gonna
come back for it, and it never did.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
What motherfucker you take that thing to a butcher, do
you know yourself?

Speaker 2 (51:40):
A nice fancy rug out of the out of the pelt.

Speaker 3 (51:44):
That is what you do.

Speaker 1 (51:47):
You don't dump it in Central Park like a dumb ass. God,
what did he do?

Speaker 3 (51:52):
M dump it?

Speaker 2 (51:53):
And if you are you don't dump in a random spot.
You dump it close to the zoo. Yeah, Jesus fucker.
It's like think, work smarter, not harder. Yeah, it's like, look,
if you can't figure out anywhere else in Central Park
to dump a bear, get it as close to the
Central Park as it as possible. So they just assumed

(52:15):
it was.

Speaker 1 (52:15):
One of theirs. Yeah, God, nobody questions it. Yeah, Jesus Christ,
didn't he say he sucked the whale?

Speaker 2 (52:28):
I wouldn't be surprised.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
Is there's something to do with the whale? I don't know,
but I'm not.

Speaker 2 (52:34):
At this point.

Speaker 3 (52:34):
I'm not entirely certain I want to know.

Speaker 1 (52:37):
I don't either, ain't nobody cur I don't, I don't.
I don't want to know either. I'm no, I'm just
now do you do we? It's like, do we really
want somebody heading up uh hhs that has half a brain? Literally?

Speaker 2 (52:59):
I mean it would, I mean, depending on how you
look at it, it genuinely wouldn't be.

Speaker 3 (53:02):
The first time.

Speaker 1 (53:03):
Yeah, that's true. But I mean, oh, I have half
my brain's gone because it was eaten by a ward. There.
It's a dead worm in my head.

Speaker 13 (53:14):
Uh really, sir, sir, you mean there's something that just
popped into my head to say, but I am not
going to say because it's beyond the pale even for me.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
Yeah, I'll tell you when we go off the air,
of course, yeah, but.

Speaker 14 (53:36):
But but no, this is it's it's genuinely this like
this goes beyond the amusing stuff and would actually fall
under the heading of absolutely mean yeah, so I'm not
going to.

Speaker 1 (53:47):
Yeah, but but like all in all, like like the
to get back what we were talking about. All in all,
Maria is amazing, Like you just you have to watch it.

Speaker 2 (54:01):
Circling back to the fact that the Kennedys are involved,
I do want to give a shout out to the
guy that played JFK and Maria Yes, because apart from when,
oh my god and why am I blanking on his
on his name hold on, most of the people that

(54:26):
play either the Kennedys or people from Massachusetts Massachusetts New
England area don't do the accents right.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
They fucked up the accent. They do an exaggerated bastard accent,
you know.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
And they do it for now. I give Alan Auto
credit when he was on Match. He didn't even bother
to track because the main accent is actually kind of
hard to nail properly. Yeah, unless you unless you actually
were born with it. David, the late David Aginstars got
Winchester version of the accent pretty pretty decently because he
was supposed to be from from a kind of more

(55:04):
upper class area of Massachusetts and got over so he
did it properly.

Speaker 3 (55:10):
Apart from Jeffrey Donovan from burn notice in.

Speaker 2 (55:15):
In j Edgar when he played I think it was
j Edgar where he played one of the Kennedy's.

Speaker 9 (55:22):
Yeah, I've I very rarely here, someone get the the
Massachusetts accent, that accent, right, Yeah, the guy that played
him in that played Kennedy in Maria didn't excellent job.

Speaker 2 (55:48):
Getting that, Oh yeah, getting that done. Yeah. Him and
Jeffrey Donovan is the RFK and j Edgar so the
best hemps at the actual Kennedy version of the Massachusetts
accent that I'd ever heard.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
Yeah, it's just you. I mean to nail it. You've
got you. You have to watch like hours of footage
of him speaking, like you have to watch the debate,
You have to watch the inauguration, if you have to
listen out, you listen to hours of audio and stuff

(56:26):
to get to get that accent perfect, because it's it's
like a it's that Massachusetts accent, that New England accent.

Speaker 2 (56:36):
It's but it's also like a classier version. Yeah, it's
it's it's like a classier main drawl, Yeah, version of
the main draw. Like if ever you if anyone has
never heard Stephen anyone who's ever heard Stephen King talk?

Speaker 1 (56:51):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 2 (56:52):
Now I can't account for the kids how his his
kids sound, Yeah, but one would assume growing up in Maine, Yeah,
they sounded like.

Speaker 1 (57:02):
It but yeah, that's that's how it is. It's like
an upper upper class uh doing it.

Speaker 2 (57:10):
It's more like an upper class Maine act.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Yeah, and it's it's like like I what was I watching?
I was, Oh, there was this I was watching on
c SPAN. I was watching on American History TV on
se SPAN because that's what I like to do on weekends.
I I have that out on his background noise.

Speaker 3 (57:34):
Uh, because we old, Yeah, we old.

Speaker 1 (57:38):
And and you know, I gotta it's the sensory process.

Speaker 2 (57:42):
Old, we hurt, we tired, and we actually are fucking children,
yes at times, but it's like we're hurt, we're old,
we're fucking tired, and we act like fucking children.

Speaker 1 (57:57):
Yes, thank you, thank you, seeam punk, thank you.

Speaker 2 (58:01):
Very much, Phil Brocks for your for being God's gift
to ship posters.

Speaker 1 (58:06):
Yes, but the but uh, I like I was watching
one of his speeches and I think it was after
the Cuban missile crisis had had ended that he did that.
He did a uh he did like one of those

(58:26):
speeches in the Oval office. And I swear because it
because you could hear that, you could hear that accent.

Speaker 2 (58:36):
Oh yeah, like you could definitely hear it.

Speaker 11 (58:39):
Oh yeah, and even ted Kennedy you heard it a
little bit. Yeah, yeah, even Teddy Boy, well.

Speaker 2 (58:52):
Teddy had it a little less, but but definitely yeah.

Speaker 1 (59:00):
Oh yeah, but uh yeah that it.

Speaker 2 (59:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (59:04):
Maria is an excellent movie.

Speaker 2 (59:07):
Everybody plus would watch again. If you need to get
emotionally destroyed. Yeah, it is absolutely insanely good.

Speaker 1 (59:15):
If you're if your if your life is going too
damn well and you need to get a react, and
you need to react, you need to ask cry. Yeah,
you need a fucking good ask cry, watch that movie. Yeah.
So Also, if you want.

Speaker 2 (59:34):
To absolutely be blown away by Visy Dart in a
way that you've never heard before.

Speaker 1 (59:43):
Seriously an amateur, but an amateur, a trained trained for
seven months, trained, a highly trained amateur. Yes, you you
want to hear a highly.

Speaker 2 (59:57):
Honestly, if Marshall in Return were so alive, she would
be so fucking proud, gratefully so. Yes, amazing job Oh
creating that child, Yes, like absolutely amazing. Hers was amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
Oh absolutely, I just just and I was thinking about
this the other night last night, the way she has evolved,
the way she has grown as not only as an
actress but a woman. She has like, like, what was

(01:00:36):
one of the first roles I saw her and was hackers?

Speaker 15 (01:00:41):
Yeah, yeah, and and she was you know, and she's
just evolved over the years and look at her now,
you know, just amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
Yeah, just bravo. Yes, she would deserve she would definitely
has earned an oscar. Yeah if she gets if she
gets it, it's it's well earned.

Speaker 1 (01:01:08):
But uh yeah, that that's our review of Maria. Honestly,
go watch it, seriously, definitely watch it. Yeah. So, and
then next up we're gonna watch Maestro with Bradley Cooper.
And then of course Anna mentioned she Broley Cooper and
his his scandalous prosthetic nose.

Speaker 2 (01:01:29):
God, the people were ringing such a big deal over that,
and then Leonard Burns's family were like, no, dad's nose
genuinely look like that. What are you upset about?

Speaker 1 (01:01:39):
He had he had a honker So yeah, the guy
like his his surviving children were like, I don't we
don't get what the problem is.

Speaker 2 (01:01:49):
His nose genuinely look like that.

Speaker 1 (01:01:52):
Yeah, they have none of you.

Speaker 2 (01:01:53):
Seen concert footage of our father, although do be further
probably paying attention to the fact that he would so
got so into his conducting that he'd end up disheveled
as fuck at the end.

Speaker 1 (01:02:05):
Oh yeah, Like what was it? There was? Yeah, there was?
Oh yeah, he always like that.

Speaker 2 (01:02:11):
I honestly can't wait to see because that was what
I learned first about Leonard Bernstein. And I forget what
music it might have been. A junior high music teacher
showed us video of him conducting, and we were all
in hysterics at the end because we're like, what the hell,
We've never seen anything anyone conduct like that for like that,

(01:02:34):
don't what sir?

Speaker 1 (01:02:37):
Everybody else like after you all right, after we watched that,
you know what, you watched Leonard Bernstein conduct and then
you watch other people conducting and you're like are you
people alive?

Speaker 2 (01:02:53):
And then you, like I said, you watch Leondon Bernstein conducting,
You're like, sir, do you do you require medical assistance?

Speaker 1 (01:03:06):
My good, sir, somebody somebody tranquilized this guy.

Speaker 2 (01:03:15):
He's like, it's like, sir, did you can I didn't
even argue.

Speaker 3 (01:03:20):
That one could be like, sir, did you consume meth?

Speaker 1 (01:03:23):
Yeah? Like no, he's oh no, he's overgo suck oke,
Like who gave?

Speaker 2 (01:03:31):
All right?

Speaker 1 (01:03:31):
Who gave?

Speaker 2 (01:03:31):
Leander Bernstein Mandrax.

Speaker 1 (01:03:33):
Yeah ship, oh my god.

Speaker 2 (01:03:36):
But like you get conductors that are like middle of
the road on that. I'll say this for Domingo when
he conducts, he he conducts what Yeah, it's like you
wouldn't see him doing that. But then at the same
time it's like, seriously, dude, you could move your arms
a little bit.

Speaker 1 (01:03:56):
Yeah. Yeah, And we've seen like we've seen good I've
seen camel Uh he's I've seen him conduct I've seen
remember that, you know the meme where they has the
guy that's like he's conducting and they're they're like throwing
like all kinds of ship at him and he's like
swatting it and stuff that.

Speaker 3 (01:04:16):
Yeah, that guy that's.

Speaker 1 (01:04:17):
Gustavo Dudamel nice. Yeah. Uh.

Speaker 2 (01:04:21):
Which, by the way, it's like I've seen Victor Borge
at conductive but that's actually not a good example. No,
but yeah, because he's doing because he's supposed to be funny.

Speaker 1 (01:04:30):
Yeah. But uh. By the way, Gustavol he has his
own controversy because he's Venezuelan and has not uh denounced
the uh the government that has the has uh that
has not the like there was a.

Speaker 2 (01:04:50):
And there's my thoughts on that. Again, the people not
realize that there were some governments in South America that
used to literally just make people up in diss a fucking.

Speaker 3 (01:05:00):
Yeah, of course he's not.

Speaker 1 (01:05:03):
That's what they do. That's what the that's what the
Maduro government does.

Speaker 2 (01:05:08):
Yeah, the Peron's government did it. That Brazil did it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
Yeah, like.

Speaker 3 (01:05:16):
People that you can't say anything because their family members.

Speaker 2 (01:05:18):
Will just up in one day.

Speaker 1 (01:05:21):
Yeah, Pinochet did it in Chile.

Speaker 3 (01:05:23):
Yeah, people don't get it.

Speaker 2 (01:05:24):
But that's the thing that it's not just Russia that
does it, folks.

Speaker 1 (01:05:29):
Yeah, and and I can't and if I if I
may put my history nerd hat on that has been
going on since the South American Revolution.

Speaker 2 (01:05:41):
The history nerd hat was off.

Speaker 1 (01:05:46):
Briefly.

Speaker 2 (01:05:47):
Uh you know, you know, Randy Newman was right, you
can't leave your hat on Krista Okay, but yeah, it's seriously,
I like, people don't realize that it did. And it's

(01:06:09):
especially with the ones that just will like up and disappear.
Anyone be related to a famous person won't necessarily keep
you safe.

Speaker 1 (01:06:17):
Now, I mean, they're the rare exception. Like uh like
Richard Strauss, he actively joined, he actively worked with Nazis
only to keep his daughter in law and his grandchildren safe,
and it almost it almost were like.

Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
You know what otherwise, you know, you do have a
They literally were like, we're like the the homicidal version
of Christian Cage. I hear you have a daughter, I
hear you have a grandchild. Being your current Streuss did
not keep that man safe from being threatened from his
family because.

Speaker 1 (01:06:52):
His because his his his family in his daughter in
law and grandchildren were actually said to a concentration camp.
He had to go get them out.

Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
So yeah, like there was I think there was like
a member of one of Kinser Wilhelm's cousins, m.

Speaker 1 (01:07:13):
Yeah, was was.

Speaker 3 (01:07:15):
Locked up during World War Two and she actually died.

Speaker 2 (01:07:18):
They gassed her. Yeah, she was a member of the
fucking royal family and it didn't save her. Yeah, so
you know, these like were like, yeah, it's not just
like it's not just Russia and Europe it No, you know,
it's all well and good to say, well, they can

(01:07:39):
just speak out, but you have to have to think,
might there be a reason why beyond they actually support
this that they're not saying anything? Yeah, critical thinking folks.

Speaker 1 (01:07:56):
Yeah, seriously, God that's what you gotta call it. Yeah.
They people are like, oh, I don't want to get
to college because it makes me think of oh dear,
oh dear god, boot fucking who asshole think seriously, Breen
isn't just there to make your dick work?

Speaker 2 (01:08:19):
Ah, But anyway, angry history nerd Yes, yes.

Speaker 1 (01:08:26):
But the yeah, yeah, so I'm getting back to Leonard Burnstand.

Speaker 2 (01:08:34):
Yeah, fucking learned things.

Speaker 1 (01:08:37):
Yeah, but where you know I've seen your book. Yes,
I've seen I've seen other conductors. They they do get animated, but.

Speaker 2 (01:08:48):
Not to the not meth animated.

Speaker 1 (01:08:51):
God, Like, let's let's be honest.

Speaker 2 (01:08:55):
That's the animation that you usually only see when methamphetamines
have been consumed. Seriously, Oh, given the time period, I
wouldn't be surprised because that was back when they actually
when ampetamines were literally like I mean, dude, Mother's little helper. Yeah,

(01:09:16):
amphetamines were encouraged.

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
Mm hmmm they were. But we're gonna we're gonna watch
Maestro next. And then you Anna said you wanted to
watch Chevalier because I had watched that.

Speaker 2 (01:09:29):
I have not seen it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:30):
Yeah, I watched it on the plane coming from uh
from Munich to d C on the way back.

Speaker 2 (01:09:38):
Crying like a baby, aren't I?

Speaker 1 (01:09:41):
Uh well, I was kind of sleepy. So I I
was kind of sleepy because I had gotten up, I
mean sucking early that morning. I had gotten up really
fucking early that morning because I wanted to because I
wanted to do something before I got to the airport.

Speaker 2 (01:10:02):
And uh, you wanted to do a thing.

Speaker 1 (01:10:05):
Yeah, while I wanted to ship my my clothes were
I had too much uh stuff in my bag was
filled the brand, and I wanted to send off my
clothes back to back home.

Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
So essentially you wanted to ship your pants.

Speaker 1 (01:10:23):
Yeah, I wanted to ship my pants, child, I did.

Speaker 2 (01:10:27):
I shipped.

Speaker 1 (01:10:28):
I shipped my pants. I shipped my pants in Germany.

Speaker 2 (01:10:36):
Look go on YouTube and look up Kmart ship my
pants my pants. That is one of the greatest fucking commercials.
I love it in the universe.

Speaker 1 (01:10:50):
Yes, I shipped, like I shipped, like my pants in Germany,
you did, I shook my pants and Unich. But yeah, no,

(01:11:14):
that's that's why I was. That's why I was kind
of like once I got on the plane, we were
off the ground, and I kind of settled in. I like,
after after we had After I had, you know, lunch,
I settled back and I watched I started watching Chevalier
and I I finished it. Yeah, well no, I was

(01:11:34):
getting sleepy, but I so I did finish it. But
after that I fell. I went to fucking sleep and.

Speaker 2 (01:11:45):
Christ to take the nap right here.

Speaker 1 (01:11:47):
Yeah, for four hours because the because the lady was
sitting next to me, she goes, she goes, you were
out polled, like of course I was. But but uh, yeah,
well I was listening to uh it was classical music

(01:12:09):
on it, you know, like for sleep, classical music for sleep.
They have they had a channel, you did the the
the United flight had a channel for that. So I
was listening to that nice nice touch United Plus plus.

Speaker 2 (01:12:27):
Yes, uh honks you for four hours on a flight again, yes.

Speaker 9 (01:12:35):
But.

Speaker 1 (01:12:37):
No it but yeah, it was a really good movie.
It was. It was a really good movie. Uh you
you you know, I think there are parts that are
really emotional, and of course at the end of it,
it's like it's like a really good the end of
it's really really good. Uh and then but uh, yeah,

(01:13:00):
you you that's another movie. Y'all need to watch The Chevalier.
But we'll get to that one eventually that Maister is
another one we're gonna have to do. We're gonna have
to do on its own. Is because of that. It's
it's like Maria, we have to do that on its
own and then we can watch Chevalier. But yeah, that

(01:13:26):
but yeah, we have some we have some movie watching
ahead of us. We did watch We watched uh was it?
We watched Godzilla all the one night. We watched Godzilla
minus one.

Speaker 2 (01:13:36):
Godzilla minus one.

Speaker 1 (01:13:37):
Yeah, and of course we we did our M S
T three K version of that.

Speaker 2 (01:13:45):
But what I really love about is there's only certain
parts of it that you can because the rest of
it you're just.

Speaker 10 (01:13:51):
So so engrossed in the movie itself because yeah, because
and that there's two there's like much going on that
you're paying attention to.

Speaker 2 (01:14:02):
Yeah, to actually make fun of anything. Godilla's facial expressions, though, yeah,
you can always say something about that. Christoph was also
singing the Blue Oyster called song I was, which was hilarious.

Speaker 1 (01:14:18):
I was, yeah, I mean like it's it's god Tilla
can't help.

Speaker 2 (01:14:22):
It, you know, you can't not.

Speaker 1 (01:14:25):
Yeah, seriously, no, there goes oh good Lord. At the

(01:14:46):
end of it. I was like what's that order creeping
up her dack air?

Speaker 2 (01:14:52):
She got's going to become important, That's going to become
important in the sequel.

Speaker 1 (01:14:56):
Apparently, Yes, it's like, oh my god, she's But then
of course after I, after I thought about that, that
the it was, then it came to my mind that this, uh,
this song, the song parody that I heard. I swear
to god, I heard it in junior high and I've
remembered all these years later. You've got a disease and

(01:15:21):
you say it's just a rash, but it's crawling up
your ass.

Speaker 2 (01:15:28):
Fuck. Yeah, of all the things to remember, almost like
a parody of just a friend by business, it is.

Speaker 16 (01:15:39):
It is of all of all the ship to remember
from junior high, aside from the fact, aside from my
entire my entire seventh grade class torturing, the science.

Speaker 1 (01:15:54):
Teacher tells you to the point where the year after
we we we the year after was her she retired. Yeah,
that that that was the one thing I've retained from
junior High.

Speaker 17 (01:16:09):
I'm sorry because like bis Mark, you probably you probably
got into that somehow because shiit usually tends to get
back to the people that wrote the song, and like
ben I could just picture BISMARKI hearing that and just
rolling on the floor cackling.

Speaker 2 (01:16:25):
Oh yeah, like you know what, that's clever, that's clever.

Speaker 1 (01:16:29):
Oh yeah, seriously, I remember that from junior high and
I have not I have not forgotten ess sense.

Speaker 2 (01:16:36):
I mean, I can see how that would stick in
your head.

Speaker 1 (01:16:41):
God damn.

Speaker 2 (01:16:43):
That was actually really good.

Speaker 17 (01:16:45):
Yeah, dude, there are This could just be because I'm
tired and hormonal, but there are actual tears.

Speaker 2 (01:16:58):
Oh jeez. That was great. Oh yeah, this is you know,
that's are through with the comments, the comments on that
one post about the adventures. Yeah wait, wait, which we're
not going to go into because that Oh that was

(01:17:19):
that was bad.

Speaker 1 (01:17:21):
Yeah, no, we're not We're not going to do that.
But yeah that but yeah, that of all the ship
to remember from junior high. Yeah that yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
That and approves Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:17:37):
Yeah yeah that. And and torturing. Seriously, we as a
class like are like my graduating class, uh, the class
of nineteen ninety three. We we see we as a
collectively tortured debt science teacher to the point where she

(01:17:58):
declared the next the next school year, she declared she
was going to retire after that school year. She was
sick and tired. Yeah, we just fucking we just fucking
you know, we did. We tortured that moment. It was
it was hilarious. We have never tort We had never
tortured anyone else like that.

Speaker 2 (01:18:20):
But she was, oh, she was.

Speaker 1 (01:18:24):
She was an old lady. She was an old lady.
She was like she needed to retire anyway, but she
oh yeah, we we.

Speaker 2 (01:18:34):
Just that's going nice.

Speaker 1 (01:18:38):
We let her have it. We let her. Then of
course there was the the at the time he was, uh,
he was our social studies coach, and then he became
the and then later he became the uh high school

(01:19:01):
football coach and then like and I believe, what did
you do to that poor man? Oh no, we put
we we we got were in his face and we
got angry at it because it was a health It
was uh yeah. It was an Ohio history class, and
uh because you know we have because you know, in

(01:19:22):
seventh grade we at that time you had Ohio history.
You had to learn about the history of the state.
So I don't know if they mandate that anymore.

Speaker 2 (01:19:32):
Did you learn about how the main export in Cleveland
was clipping crippling depression?

Speaker 1 (01:19:37):
No, not not really they should they they glossed over that.

Speaker 2 (01:19:43):
They gloss over that. I wonder why by a house
for reprise of.

Speaker 1 (01:19:55):
Our paying nextport is crampedly.

Speaker 2 (01:19:57):
Deep comes down in East Cleveland, or.

Speaker 1 (01:20:02):
Or you'll die.

Speaker 18 (01:20:07):
But yeah, he was saying something. He said that he
was talking to him. No, no, it wasn't Ohio history class.
It was like back then the health classes were segregated.

Speaker 1 (01:20:19):
Okay, they it was the girls and the boys. And
oh they did the separate sex ed Yeah, well it
wasn't sex d it was separate. It was separate health classes.
Like that makes yeah, but we had Yeah, so I
remember the all girls and I and we were arguing

(01:20:41):
with him because he had said something about he woke
his sister up one time at at two in the
morning and made and told her to make him a sandwich.
And we laid into him like the we now remember
we are like twelve, they're eleven, twelve, thirteen years old, okay, yeah,

(01:21:04):
and we're like a mix of ages here, but we
are laying into till like what the fuck you know?
How days two in the morning, seriously? One why are
you eating? And two make your own goddamn sandwich? Seriously.
Oh yeah, we we laid it to hell. Uh he's

(01:21:27):
now I believe he is now a coach up in Manor, Ohio.
And it's not mentor Ohio, it's minner. It's meta. Okay,
that's how you have to say. It's not mentor Ohio,
it's minner. If you get it wrong, you'll you'll be

(01:21:49):
you'll be uh you know, you'll be paaking out. Yes. Oh,
it's like with East Palestine. If you ever pronounce it
East Palastine dine. Oh, I mean I could get away
with it.

Speaker 3 (01:22:03):
I'll be like, I'm from Maine.

Speaker 2 (01:22:04):
We don't know how to pronounce things. Yeah, I was
born in We don't know how to pronounce things.

Speaker 1 (01:22:09):
But seriously, if you pronounced the East Palestine because I heard,
because I heard a because I was watching And this
is when J. T. Miller was was in the a
h L and he was playing for the Connecticut Wolves. Uh,
the Hertford Wolves. I'm sorry, and uh.

Speaker 3 (01:22:29):
He Connecticut So you were only a teenc be yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:22:33):
And because they because they were the because they're the
the HL team for the Rangers, and they were yeah yeah,
and they they were talking about him and they were
mentioning that he was from East Palestine, Ohio, And I'm like,

(01:22:54):
oh my god, no, do you know you're gonna you
would die at East Palestine if they heard you say that.

Speaker 2 (01:23:02):
Hh, don't talk around denise Palestine or.

Speaker 1 (01:23:06):
Yeah, don't mispronounce these Palestine or you'll die. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:23:12):
On the brand side, at least we're not Detroit.

Speaker 1 (01:23:15):
Yeah, seriously, if you mispronounced, I'm surprised. I am surprised
that nobody, like when they had when when they had
that giant train derailment. I am very surprised that that

(01:23:35):
so many of these news outlets pronounced it correctly. I
was expecting at least one or two to mispronounce it,
but they got it right.

Speaker 2 (01:23:44):
We probably warned yeah, like y'all, look, you have to
say it this way or they will eat you.

Speaker 1 (01:23:51):
Yeah, you'll be flailed alive if you do not, because like.

Speaker 2 (01:23:57):
They'll give you a big they'll give you they'll they'll
treat you like a raptor can the mortal words of
sam Neil. The point is you're alive when the people
of East Palestine start to eat you. Yeah, from just
pronouncing their town name.

Speaker 1 (01:24:13):
Seriously, Uh yeah, that that is how they That is
how they are fiercely. They are fiercely proud of their town.
And I'm very proud of them, you know, as as
much as they struggled since that, since the train dereglement. Yes,
and they've they've come back. Yay, yeah, because they're now awesome.

Speaker 2 (01:24:38):
East Palestine be like surprised, motherfucker.

Speaker 1 (01:24:40):
Yeah, the laugh of me. But they're like there are
still I think they said there are still patches of
what there's still like trace elements in the water and stuff.
Ah but uh.

Speaker 2 (01:24:56):
Yeah, I mean that makes sense because you can't really
get all of that out immediately immediately.

Speaker 1 (01:25:03):
It's going to leach out of the soil too.

Speaker 2 (01:25:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:25:06):
But uh and if you don't know what we're talking about,
go look up the East Palestine trailed rate and train
to railm it. You'll and you'll warn all about it.
Uh and uh yeah, but uh yeah, they they've come back.
They're even offering like, uh these these passes like you

(01:25:30):
go into like the stores in East Palestine and you
present there your your VIP pass and you can get
like a certain percentage off your order or something, and uh,
which is pretty cool. It's it's it's trying, it's inviting,
it's inviting people to come to East Palestine, so because

(01:25:53):
they want to show everybody we're back. Yeah, but yeah,
I'm sure and I'm sure there is a there's you know,
a part of the part of the town near the
derailment site that is not going to be habitable, or
if it is, it'll take massive cleanup. But hey, you

(01:26:20):
know you have to before. But yeah, so but yeah,
that's so. Uh, after we've gone off the rails about everything.

Speaker 2 (01:26:37):
Oh, poor choice of words.

Speaker 1 (01:26:41):
Oh god, Christa. After we've after we've like, you know,
given what we were just talking about. Yeah, and I
can't think of anything else. I can't think of any
other like euphemism for that. Yeah, after our brains have
gone feral about about everything else. Uh we got distracted, Yes,

(01:27:06):
after after massive distraction.

Speaker 3 (01:27:09):
After our brains went squirrel.

Speaker 1 (01:27:11):
Yeah. Uh yeah we we yeah, we have. We've now
reached the end of today's.

Speaker 2 (01:27:19):
Episode as usual by our ship. Speaking of we actually
had had our first sale of twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (01:27:29):
Yes, it was during Maria I found out that we
had our first sale of twenty twenty five. We sold
a hoodie of the ring Cycle checklist. I am like,
so if you bought that so if you bought that,

(01:27:49):
thank you, and please let us please note we're still
trying to.

Speaker 2 (01:27:54):
Figure out who bought bitch Lasagna.

Speaker 1 (01:27:57):
I know.

Speaker 2 (01:27:58):
That's kind of like the enduring mystery of this podcast.

Speaker 1 (01:28:01):
It is who bought the shirt? Oh my gosh, that.

Speaker 2 (01:28:06):
Whole podcast where the woman was trying to figure out
who shi on the dance wad her wedding. We're trying
to figure our podcast is slowly going to war who
bought the.

Speaker 1 (01:28:15):
Yeah, I have I have this, I have this this uh,
this sinking feeling like I have this, this terrible thought
at the back of my mind that I'm going to
go to I'm going to go to Munich that this
summer and I'm going to meet Jonas and he'll say,
your name is Christa. Do you have a podcast? Did

(01:28:40):
you have.

Speaker 2 (01:28:42):
Do you have a merch shop?

Speaker 1 (01:28:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:28:47):
Are you?

Speaker 1 (01:28:48):
Are you looking for the person who bought the bitchlas
on your shirt? Well you found him?

Speaker 2 (01:28:54):
Who taught you that?

Speaker 1 (01:28:55):
Yeah? Well you found him? Oh God, that's my nightmare?
Is that Yonas is the one a poet pitch?

Speaker 2 (01:29:03):
Even better, how funny would it be if it was
a member like a descendant of Wagner himself?

Speaker 3 (01:29:12):
Like, you know what, they're not wrong, Old Grampy Ricard
was kind of a dick.

Speaker 1 (01:29:16):
Yeah, oh god, I mean yeah, but it would be
because Yonas is a big Wagner fan. Okay, but that's
not complimentary. Well he's a fan of his music. Yeah,
oh yeah, it's not a compliment. Yeah, it's just it's like,

(01:29:39):
oh my god, you know, but he yeah, he's he's
a Vagner fan. But he knows, you know that, he knows. Yeah,
he's a great he's like us. He knows he's a
great composer. But he's just he was a shitty human being.
But uh yeah, he would be hilarious. It's stuffed his

(01:30:01):
is it's stuffed. Yeah, it's stuff, and.

Speaker 2 (01:30:05):
I mean it. I think what makes it even funnier
is the fact that that's the one from our shot
that requires the most explanation.

Speaker 1 (01:30:14):
Yes, oh yeah, just like you see they eat the.

Speaker 2 (01:30:18):
Baby shirt and you know people, yeah, are gonna ask,
but that's like easy to say. Yeah, it's altrovatore. A
baby getting thrown into a fire is literally part of
the plot.

Speaker 1 (01:30:31):
Yeah, bitch.

Speaker 2 (01:30:32):
Asanya, on the other hand, requires quite a bit more
of an in depth explanation.

Speaker 1 (01:30:36):
Mm hmm. God, that's it. I don't even remember what
how we came up with that.

Speaker 2 (01:30:48):
I think we were making fun of the people that
the scammers that like send those messages and they're getting
mad when people don't respond to them, Like Wagner kind.

Speaker 3 (01:30:58):
Of was like that as a human being.

Speaker 1 (01:31:00):
Oh yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:31:02):
Also, we think Vogner is a bitch. Yeah that's not
a secret.

Speaker 1 (01:31:06):
Yeah. Oh yeah, he was a bitch. He was a
And I say, and here's here's a here's a random
little fact about Wagner. At the time of not again,
at the time of his death. Uh, Costama thought that
he was cheating on her.

Speaker 2 (01:31:24):
I mean, let's be honest, he probably was cheating on her.

Speaker 1 (01:31:29):
Oh yeah, it's Wagner.

Speaker 2 (01:31:32):
He cheated to get Kosama.

Speaker 1 (01:31:34):
Yeah, he cheated to get Cosmo.

Speaker 19 (01:31:36):
He he he you know you Okay, So I'm I'm
I'm thinking about because to this year is my the
year I turned fifty.

Speaker 1 (01:31:47):
I'm thinking about starting to read that those book talks,
smutty books. Okay, so here's here's a book talk smutty
book summary of Wagner, uh, of his exile in Switzerland.
You you you you you financed, You're financing my my

(01:32:12):
stay here in Switzerland. So in thanks, I'm gonna fuck
your wife.

Speaker 2 (01:32:17):
Mm hmm. Yeah, that's that's and by the way, I'm
also already married.

Speaker 3 (01:32:24):
Yeah, you're what his book would be called, Your wife
will do?

Speaker 2 (01:32:31):
Mm hmmm.

Speaker 1 (01:32:34):
Yeah, now that's the first book.

Speaker 2 (01:32:38):
I'm I'm I'm no, I will not elaborate.

Speaker 1 (01:32:42):
Yeah, I I I was going to elaborate, but no,
I'm not. That's yeah, I'm not going. Yeah, I fucked
your wife. That's you know. That's yeah, your wife will do?

Speaker 2 (01:32:59):
What's It's way funnier if we don't elaborate at all.

Speaker 1 (01:33:04):
That also sounds like Puccini's life. Your wife will do.

Speaker 3 (01:33:11):
Schubert.

Speaker 2 (01:33:12):
I think Schubert was in there as well.

Speaker 1 (01:33:14):
Schubert and Debousy as well. Yeah, Subert, Debosy, Puccini, Fogner. Yeah, yeah,
your wife will do that's it.

Speaker 2 (01:33:34):
Yeah, you are so lucky Judaism doesn't have a hell,
because otherwise you'd be going right along with it.

Speaker 1 (01:33:42):
Ah. Oh, I enjoy being a Jew.

Speaker 2 (01:33:52):
That was awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:33:57):
You do, though, h in all seriousness.

Speaker 2 (01:34:02):
You do, Yes, I do.

Speaker 1 (01:34:06):
I do. And and Anna enjoys it too because I
get to teach her every once in a while.

Speaker 2 (01:34:16):
Which leads to memes about me being up looking up
up toilet demons after midnight.

Speaker 3 (01:34:21):
Yes, yes, which are apparently a thing.

Speaker 1 (01:34:25):
Yeah, Jewish toilet demons are a thing.

Speaker 2 (01:34:29):
One of them is wrestling in a w You wonder
the name m J.

Speaker 1 (01:34:41):
Toilet demons and the personas they embody, oh my god. Okay, okay,
this barrel. Yeah, so before the before the uh the
silly police them and take us away.

Speaker 2 (01:35:01):
Uh. I doubt that will happen.

Speaker 3 (01:35:04):
Graham Chapman's dead.

Speaker 2 (01:35:05):
Yeah, Like anytime somebody mentions this, I just think of
that that sod or bit that Graham Chapman used to
do on Monty Python's fly Circuit.

Speaker 1 (01:35:14):
Stop.

Speaker 2 (01:35:15):
Okay, that's enough. This is childish and I won't have it. Yeah, nonsense,
it's silly.

Speaker 1 (01:35:22):
This is too silly. So before Graham Chapman comes well he.

Speaker 2 (01:35:31):
Comes back from the dead and take to take us away. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:35:34):
Uh so yeah, that's a wrap for for this episode
of the Opatrash Podcast. We will be back. We're debating
on never Yeah, we're debating please, yeah we are. We
are debating on watching Aida from the met because.

Speaker 2 (01:35:53):
I definitely want to see just because that production through
no photo its own seems so incredibly cursed.

Speaker 1 (01:35:59):
Yeah, yeah, we got to watch this because if because
we read the review of the opening night, which was
on New Year's Eve, and and it was like the
Murphy's law of opera, whatever can go wrong will go wrong.
So uh so.

Speaker 2 (01:36:16):
It feels so bad for Angel Blue because that was
her whole debut and yeah yeah, and it's like everything
that that could go wrong with the with the production
has gone wrong and it's like all.

Speaker 1 (01:36:29):
But but from what from what we've heard she was,
she is amazing in this. Yeah, and if we do,
if we do end up watching it, we're gonna watch it.
What on the twenty I think it's the twenty eighth
and it's in.

Speaker 2 (01:36:43):
The I'm not sure. I think, Well we'll look it up.

Speaker 3 (01:36:47):
Yeah it's the twenty something.

Speaker 1 (01:36:48):
Yeah, and uh, we'll we'll watch. So if we decide to,
we'll watch that. Because Pyotr was ill, had dropped out
for a bit. Now he's coming back.

Speaker 3 (01:36:59):
So more words of John Clay, I got better.

Speaker 1 (01:37:03):
Yeah better.

Speaker 2 (01:37:06):
Yeah, so she gave me Google issues, Google issues, I
got better.

Speaker 1 (01:37:17):
So he's so he's back, and I'm sure Anna Will
will most likely want to be feral to watch.

Speaker 2 (01:37:24):
Yeah, and I mean I'll be I might be little
of ferrel.

Speaker 1 (01:37:28):
You never know.

Speaker 2 (01:37:30):
I can never predict the feral.

Speaker 1 (01:37:32):
Yeah. Yeah, so so we'll watch that. Uh and uh
so we may watch. We may watch that. We also
want to see because it's a new production of Aida
and they bitched about the you know, the bitching was
about you know, why is there a new production of Aida? Why?
You know, why didn't you just stick to the old one?

Speaker 2 (01:37:54):
Because everybody's tired of seeing butt cracks during that dance scene.

Speaker 1 (01:37:58):
That's why we wait. Don't need to see excessive.

Speaker 2 (01:38:04):
Excessive apologies to the late Tina Turner, but my brain
just like, we don't need to see yells. But grass
I feel I I actually feel ashamed of myself for
that one.

Speaker 1 (01:38:19):
Well that was good.

Speaker 2 (01:38:22):
I ironically loved that particular song that was good though,
from Mad Max, Like I I didn't, I just and
ironically love that song.

Speaker 1 (01:38:36):
Yeah No, that was like that's right up there with
I enjoy being a too.

Speaker 2 (01:38:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:38:46):
But uh yeah, we're gonna so we're gonna try to watch.
We're thinking about we're debating on watching Ada. We're going
to I think I think uh as soon as I
find out if when Grounded is on met On, man
will watch that because that one's I want to watch too,

(01:39:07):
And uh yeah, so you know, just and we'll watch
Maestro and Chevalier. But yeah, we'll we'll we'll be in touch,
you know, we you know, we've got we've got ship
that we're that's going on here in our lives and
we're you know, I'm trying to I'm I'm trying to
deal with with uh, answering with temporary. Hopefully it's temporary

(01:39:29):
and I go back to what I've been doing in QA.
But right now I'm in call center and it's and uh.

Speaker 2 (01:39:37):
I finally understands my pain.

Speaker 1 (01:39:39):
Yeah, yeah, it's just ah. Seriously, the friday I had,
I had to walk a bar.

Speaker 2 (01:39:51):
On Saturday, you know, Saturday, January twenty twelve, thirty pm Eastern.

Speaker 1 (01:39:56):
Okay, so uh seriously though, uh that's the last day
of the product of the run too. Now the I
swear I had.

Speaker 2 (01:40:10):
It's gonna be good. This live at Home. Oh yeah,
it's good. It's Aita. Then March's Fidelio, April is Linosi
di Figaro. Yeah, May seventeenth is Salome.

Speaker 1 (01:40:27):
That's a new production of Salome tip.

Speaker 2 (01:40:29):
Yeah, first new production of the company in twenty years.
Let's see how many titties it doesn't have. Yeah, and
then Barbaria de Sevilia. Yeah, we'll we'll have we'll definitely.
That's a bartlet Share production.

Speaker 1 (01:40:44):
So yeah, that's that's a good one. That's the good
one that we watched before. Uh that had the you
know the uh uh yeah that that uh that one figure.

Speaker 2 (01:41:00):
Out was running around round with business cards. Yes, at
the end.

Speaker 1 (01:41:04):
That was hilarious.

Speaker 2 (01:41:07):
It's like, figure out you little ship.

Speaker 1 (01:41:09):
Yeah, at the end of it he was running around
with business cards. Yeah, that was great. I have that
was that was Peter Buttie, that was Peter b Taie. Uh.
And I hope I hope that uh, whoever is figuring
out in this in this production does that too, Yeah,
just because that.

Speaker 2 (01:41:28):
Was just absolutely fucking hilarious. I hope I hope Adelia,
we don't have a rocks Fall moment.

Speaker 1 (01:41:38):
Excuse me, No, No, that's gonna be, thank you. It's
not denominational folks, Yes, no, that I think is gonna be.
That's not the Klauds Goots version mm hmm. Anything seriously,
anything that's not any production of Fidelio that is not
the Klauds Goot production means the tenor.

Speaker 2 (01:42:01):
Will most likely survive like he's supposed to.

Speaker 1 (01:42:03):
Yes, not kidding folks that that was no, not kidding,
I means's production.

Speaker 2 (01:42:20):
Krista is still salty because Jonas was the lead in
that production.

Speaker 1 (01:42:25):
Yeah and he yeah and yeah, and he wasn't supposed
to die. Yeah, that's just wrong.

Speaker 2 (01:42:38):
Like the honestly, the the the synopsis, it at the
it literally at the end says that he's really that
he's released through his chained by Leonori and the crowd
sings her praise as the loyal savior of her husband.

Speaker 3 (01:42:58):
It mentions nothing about him dying.

Speaker 1 (01:43:00):
Yeah, so yeah, I won't I don't choice. Yeah, I
don't care. I don't care if he if Klasscut had
a good version, had a good production of Turn Dot
like he did, uh like he did in you know,

(01:43:21):
uh this past year. Uh now that seriously, I will
never fucking forgive class Guot for for killing off my
man at the end of Fidelia.

Speaker 2 (01:43:33):
It also had like sort of like no purpose whatsoever.
It wouldn't have enhanced the ending at all either. No,
because the whole point of it is that he survives
and gets to go back home with his wife. Yeah,
the fuck was wrong with you, sir. Now I could
understand if he like implied that, you know, he was

(01:43:54):
just exhausted and fainted and like swooned, but no, this
was quite clearly dead.

Speaker 1 (01:43:59):
Yeah, like he like they were trying too bad, he did.
They were trying to imply that he had PTSD for
being in the prison, for bringing in that dark underground
prison for two years, and then when he when he
comes out, he's so overwhelmed by all the the by

(01:44:20):
the crowd and everything that he literally drops dead.

Speaker 2 (01:44:25):
That he has a heart attack. Essentially. That's like, sir,
that's that's speaking of somebody who grew up in household
with the Vietnam But that's not how PTSD works all
the time. No, that's yeah, no, no, bitch damnick clause.

Speaker 1 (01:44:42):
But yeah, yeah, so we yeah that yeah, that that
version of Fidelio is a happy ending.

Speaker 2 (01:44:51):
I mean every version of is supposed to be a
happy ending, Yeah, except the costcute version.

Speaker 1 (01:44:59):
But yeah. So that So what Anna gave you was
the rundown of the rest of the Mets met at
home season. So if you're not close to a theater
that is showing. Uh uh they confirmed I am not yes, so, yeah,
I am not Anna is not so.

Speaker 3 (01:45:17):
Which sucks because Greensburg would probably.

Speaker 1 (01:45:23):
Have it. But yeah ap currently I know Canton has it,
but I'm too far away from Canton. Uh but uh
but yeah, so we get to watch it together at
one of our own homes.

Speaker 2 (01:45:44):
And possible booze if we so desired.

Speaker 1 (01:45:47):
Yes, yes, thank god, thank god. Like last season was
Madame the Butterfly. Yeah, that would have wrecked us more
that which, by the way, if you want an offer
that an opera production that will wreck you Anthony Mangala.
Yes that first, that production of Madama Butterfly. Go see

(01:46:11):
it you will.

Speaker 2 (01:46:12):
Absolutely that also has I helped though, yes it has.
That one also makes excellent use of Japanese baca puppetry
to play the little Boy, and it's wooden puppetry. Wooden
pupet insanely expressive. Oh yes, like along the like along
the lines of early Jim Henson. Yes, And speaking of which,

(01:46:36):
buy our ship, bi o shipireship please. If you don't
buy our ship will break you in the knees.

Speaker 1 (01:46:41):

Oh I thought it was bite both your knees by
bite off your knees and then break both your that

we'll record, yeah after we watch.

Speaker 2 (01:48:17):
But well, we definitely have to research our dumb ways
to dumb ways to die in opera thing.

Speaker 1 (01:48:24):
