turn it up. You're on with Mario Lopez, On with
Mario Lopez. Courtney not in studio at the moment, so
Fraser stepping up to ask a random question, which you got?
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Would you rather have a laugh that sounds like a
siren or cry like a cartoon character.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
I'd rather cry like a cartoon character because I don't
cry often, not trying true a tough guy or.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Any thirteen years I s you cry twice.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
I'm just a happy guy. I don't cry that often,
but I do laugh a lot, and if I laugh
like a siren, that would be.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
But what what if you laugh so hard you start crying?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Ooh, that's that's I'm conflicted. Now, well then I couldn't
do both? Do both take effect? I would imagine they
kind of they they bounce each other out and we
split the difference.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
That's okay, Well, Mario Lopez will be right back.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Mario Lopez here with a quick reminder that you can

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Another trending slang word to add your vocabulary. What a
Mario Lopez here herkle darkle. That's what people are now
calling it. When you wake up but don't want to
get out of bed, so you just stay in bed.
I suffer from herkled durkle daily.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
You're a herkle drkler.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
I'm a hirkle durkler. Had a bad case this morning.
New study says that happens more often than you think. Oh,
I think it happens pretty much every day. Apparently fifty
eight percent of us do it most mornings. People admitted
they were more guilty on weekends, when a lot of
us hurkle durkle for half an hour or more. We're
having a reportedly herkled durkle more than men, and gen
z hurdle durkles much more than anyone else more. Mario
(02:33):
Lopez on the Way You're Mario Courtney Lopez back to
the music in a segment. First, are you guilty of
fridge foraging? New survey says over half of us are
getting more inventive with leftovers in the kitchen ooh, partly
because of the rise in food costs. Hence this new
trend on social media is called fridge foraging. I've been
fridge foraging for years. This is my move.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
There's all sorts of grain bowls and stir fries you
can create with leftovers. And there's pizza. A is that
scrambled eggs with leftover pizza? I'm mixed in. I don't
know about.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
All Right, a few more songs. I'm gonna dig into
our mentions. Mario Lopez here love hearing from your questions, comments,
random thoughts, whatever you got. Hit us up at all
with Mario on Facebook and x at all with Mario
Lopez on IG back to see what's on your mind.
Al Mario Lopez, it is time to dig into our
mentions to see what's on your mind? Would you find phrase?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
This is from alex Abeles. Maybe I'm alone, but this
Levita is getting a little too loca if you ask me.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
You know what, Alex ables this Levita this year has
been getting a little local for me as well. I
feel you. I'm just talking about stuff that I've had
to deal with that I've never had to deal with before.
Personal stuff, not too crazy, but just more annoying. So
I feel you, Alex, I feel you. Hopefully you'll be
ables to get through it.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Ha more Mario Lopez coming up a Mario Courtney Lopez.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Don't forget to follow us on ig AD On Mario Lopez,
you never miss any of our radio fun. Speaking of
ig I was scrolling earlier and I thought this was interesting.
We make hundreds of choices every day, and most of
them are easy enough, but some of them named the
most stressful decisions choices related to moving, work, relationships, even
whether you should text your X, they tend to be
(04:16):
more challenging.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
A new study says the decisions we stress over most
include accepting or quitting a job and investing money. But
also near the top of the list is driving a
car when we're tired, have a couple of drinks, are distracted,
or during bad weather.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
You shouldn't drive during any of those things.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Yeah, I don't understand. Yeah, do you want to text
your X?
Speaker 2 (04:36):
No, evidently you do, since it's on your mind.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
It's not on my mind. I'd rather throw up.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
You're on, Mario Courtney Lopez. Some quick buzz. Ariana Grande
hitting the road next year for the first time since
twenty nineteen, so it's been a minute. The Eternal Sunshine
Tour will be kicking off June sixth in Oakland, California,
playing twenty two shows in nine North American cities, including
La Atlanta and Brooklyn.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
The North American leg leg Up will wrap up August.
Do you guys know what that's from? Nope?
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Um, isn't it like energy?
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Don't explain it, just keep going.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
It will wrap up August fifth in Chicago before she
heads to London for five shows with Mario dot com
To find out everything you need to know and where
let Up come from.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
I'm Mario Courtney Lopez. If you're a dog person like
all of us here, it turns out your pup might
be more like you than you even realize. Three and
four dog owners say their dog mirrors their personality. Introverts
often describe their dogs as calm, cautious, even a little stubborn,
while extroverts are likely to have outgoing, affectionate, inquitty pets.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
I agree with this. In fact, eighty two percent of
extroverts say that their dog matches their own lively personality.
So whether you're a quiet homebody or the life of
the party, chances are your furry friend is right there
reflecting you back. My dogs are me.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
You're more Oscar Sol.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
That's okay, That's that's fine. Oscar's amazing.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I love Oscar More.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Mario Lopez coming up.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
You are on with Courtney Lopez quickly saying congrats again
to all of our five thousand dollars winners and iheartradios.
Thank a teacher and of course powered by donors Choose.
There's still time for you to nominate a public school
teacher making a difference and maybe give them a gift
of being one of our next winners of five grand
to make over their classroom. That's amazing. Help us say
(06:29):
thank you. Nominate your favorite teacher now at on with
Mario dot Com slash Teachers.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
You're on Mario Lopez. Few more songs and then gonna
fire up zoom and chat with the ladies in the
new Desperately Devoted podcast. Terry Hatcher, Andrea Bowen and Emerson
Tenney back to get the scoop on the new podcast
and more when they join us next. It's up Brol
Mario Lopez joining me right now. The hosts of the
new podcast Desperately Devoted Terry Hatcher, Andrea Bowen and Emerson Tenny.
(07:10):
How are you, ladies? We're great, good, Thank you for
taking the time. So in the new podcast, you're going
to be rewatching Desperate Housewives, the iconic show. But the
twist here, Terry, you have your real life daughter Emerson
as a host and your TV daughter from the series,
Andrea as the other hosts. That's a fun dynamic. God,
(07:31):
isn't that great.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
I'm surrounded by brilliant women. Andrea actually kind of brought
the idea to me, maybe with thinking that her and
I would do it together, and then I was the
one that said, like, wouldn't it be amazing? Since Emerson
is a writer, she's not an actor, and she's also
never seen it before, and so she's, you know, twenty seven.
(07:53):
We've got that generation. We have Andrew who's thirty five,
and me who's eighty, and so we have all these
different points of view of this iconic show. And plus
we love each other, so we're really excited.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
That's so much fun and it's so cool. I can't believe, though, Emerson,
it is funny because I feel really old. I remember
when you were a little little girl. It's crazy all
grown up now. Time goes by so quick. I can't
believe it's the first time You're got to watch this series.
Was that a deliberate move on your part?
Speaker 6 (08:24):
Well, you know, I think I was way too young
to watch it when it first came out.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I mean I was seven when the pilot aired. Why
I remember you?
Speaker 7 (08:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (08:32):
And then and then you know, there wasn't streaming for
a while. I feel like it was really during COVID
in twenty twenty when a lot of my friends from
college I think it was when Desperate Housewives first came out,
either on Netflix or maybe it was Hulu, and I
had all these friends from college who you know, had
not really grown up necessarily watching the show reaching out
to me, going, wait, is this Your mom? Is your mom?
(08:53):
Susan your mom who came to parents' weekend when we
were in college. And so when this opportunity presented itself,
it was such an easy yes because I am a screenwriter.
It is such an iconic piece of television. Not to
mention that my mom is amazing and it's so fun
to get to celebrate her and watch her achievements in
that show.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
And I'm loving it. I know your mom is fantastic
in it, all right, More with the Ladies coming up
right after a quick break.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
More Fun on the Way On with Mario Lopez.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
A Maria Lopez got the three Ladies of desperately devoted
on Zoom with me, Terry Hatcher, Andrew Bowen and Emerson Tenny.
What are your thoughts Terry and looking back and rewatching
it now?
Speaker 5 (09:33):
And well I also like Andrea, I think both of
us obviously we've seen it before, but not.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
In over decades. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Sure.
Speaker 5 (09:43):
And I have to say I was so I don't
even know the I mean, shock and awe really went.
I just the pilot, just the first two minutes of
the pilot, before any of the main actors even enter
the scene. Really just the street itself and the whole
like kind of Mary Alice set up when she does
(10:05):
what she does.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
I mean, you can't.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
I was gonna say, you have spoiler I think you
have spoiler alerts on a show that's twenty one years old.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
You see, You're good, You're good. But I really felt
like it.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
The jumping off point was with Steria. Lane is a
big star and the writing is so amazing, and every
single actor in it is just I just I can't
get over it. It's like watching a show that I
wasn't in. Like I so it really is holding up at.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Least so far.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
And uh, I'm we're really enjoying it. And you know, hindsight,
it just.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
It just it's just joy.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
I mean, these guys every every episode when we do
when we do our podcast, we talk about our individual highlights,
and sometimes we'll say, like, what line jumped out at us,
what line of dialogue jumped out at us the most?
And for me, it's just constant.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
It's to the point.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Now, let's stop talking about this line.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah we are.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah, it is true.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
I won't say the line because I've been saying. But
everything I pick it's Marcia. I just keep going back to,
like three is so amazing. I just, I mean, everyone's amazing,
but I think that character and Marsha's performance of it
is I don't know, it's just it's just genius.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
All right, ladies, Hank tight we're gonna play some more
music and talk some about talking to the ladies of
the New Desperately Devoted podcast. Harry Hatcher, Andrew Bowen and Emerson. Tenny,
you're on with Mario Lopez, and please get back to
what you're saying.
Speaker 7 (11:36):
I mean, we talk about this because we mentioned, as
Emerson said, we've only we're only at the kind of
beginning of the first season, but so quickly watching the
first few episodes, you know, you're just so committed to
this world.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
You're just you're You're.
Speaker 7 (11:50):
Fascinated by these people and their friendships and what they're hiding,
and it's it's fantastic television. And I think that there's
a there's a lane for rewatch podcas's happening, But I
imagine not everybody gets to rewatch their show with, you know,
so much pride and so much entertainment values still to
reap from today. And I watch it as now a
(12:12):
fan like I am very much a fan of Desperate Housewives,
and that feels really cool.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Twenty one years after it premiered.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Amara Lopez catching up with the ladies from the Desperately
Devoted podcast. And what I find fascinating is Desperate Housewives
was such a phenomenon. It it initially spawned the Real
Housewives franchise in Brava, which now just dominates the whole network.
And I don't know how many franchises are. It's bizarre
to see how far that's come. But essentially springboarding from
(12:42):
your show, no, it really did you know.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
I did a little research into this and the word
housewife itself kind of fell out of favor, like all
the way back in the seventies when you had the
liberation of women and the free you know, freedom and
the bra burning, and in a way, that idea of
that sort of greed character of the perfect housewife didn't
(13:05):
really exist until Mark Cherry brought this show back and
the word housewives. He really you know, created that resurgence
have that idea, and you're right, Bravo took off with it.
I used to say back in the day that Mark
Cherry deserved some small percentage.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Of all of that, which I don't think he ever got, but.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
He should have.
Speaker 7 (13:27):
But I mean it's true, and as a as a
Bravo Real Housewives fan, I think about it every time
because they're openings, they're holding the orange, or they're holding
this or that that for their various cities that they're in,
and it's just.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
So obvious what the source material is.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
But also can I just say, does kind of bring
us back to like one of the things we're doing
is we are analyzing and rewatching the show, but we're
also using it as a springboard to talk about modern
day culture and certainly as issues apply to women which
is what's happening on.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
The Real Housewives too, you know.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
So we have that aspect of bringing all of our
different lives into our podcast, and hopefully those things will
be people think, people that things, people want to hear
or inspired by.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Congratulations and congratulations to all you ladies. Everyone. Please be
sure to check out the new podcast, Desperately Devoted, which
you can hear right now on iHeartRadio or wherever you
get podcasts. Thanks for stopping by. Thank you so much
for having us.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
I would say go put on a shirt, but don't.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Thank you. Thank You're The full interview now at on
with Mario dot Com. More Mario Lopez on the.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Way You're all Mario Courtney Lopez back to the music
in a secent first quarto, trying to make us think
with a random thought, Oh, which you got out?
Speaker 4 (14:45):
So booty and butt are synonyms, call and dial are synonyms,
but a booty call and a butt dial are very
different things.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
You know what, that's probably the most poignant random thought
you've had. Makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
I'm sad now I just realized Mario, who used to
butt dial me on a regular basis, has not done
it in like two years.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
You know you don't need it in me. I shut off.
I don't know my promise. I think I shut the
phone off or not shut it off and shut the
screen off. But I guess I don't because I put
it in my pocket.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
And you have been for the last two years. I
haven't gotten one in.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
A while, but I've been getting tooty alive. It's like random,
PI don't why Oh, Mario Courtney Lopez keeping the music going,
his cordo tries to make a slab with a new
mom joke, what you got?
Speaker 4 (15:30):
What's made of leather? And sounds like a sneeze?
Speaker 2 (15:34):
What a shoe? Wow? That was good and that was
a good sneeze too, Okay, props on that one. Get
back to the music, Mario Courtney Lopez. So I posted
this the other day and tagged my sister. It said,
they give you two hundred million, but your sister gotta
(15:54):
go to jail for a year. What would you do?
I responded, Oh, she's going to jail, but when she
gets out, she's gonna have a one hundred million waiting
on her. And my sister took offense to that and said,
you're so mean. Why would she take a fit.
Speaker 8 (16:05):
I said, I just got you. One hundred million dollars
a year is nothing. I would happily go for a
year one hundred million, substantial amount of money. The real
question becomes, you're foolish if you don't for a year. Seriously,
anybody here would not would know.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Would rightly be on a plane right now to turn
my sister in.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
No, I'm talking about would you would do it yourself?
Even if you could do it.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
I would stage a crime to turn my to make
my sister go to.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Yeah, but even make it about yourself. You would do
a year.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Week two hundred million or a hundred million.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, So the real question becomes, I think everyone would.
The real question, woul becomes how low would you go
to go a year?
Speaker 4 (16:39):
I would do it for fifty million.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Would you do it for fifty million?
Speaker 4 (16:42):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Or something? The year in jail at your prison. Yes,
I don't think I go. I don't think I go
below fifty million.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
So forty million, you're not doing it?
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Eh, more fun on the way on with Mario Lopez.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
You're making goals for twenty twenty six. Yeah, Mario and
Courtney Lopez here saving money exercise and weren't working on
their mental health. Are Americans top New Year's resolutions heading
into the new year, At least according to a new
survey that just dropped.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
Goals to improve our mental health include more time with
the family, better sleep quality, going for a brisk walk,
and spending more time outdoors. Man He also said they
want to spend more time listening to music and positive podcasts.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
So close to the end of the night for us,
Mario Lopez, you got to squeeze in one last thing.
We'd love to squeeze in a request or two before
we get out of here.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
Got something you want to hear? Slide into our dms
over on Instagram at On with Mario Lopez and please
click follow to join the fam.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
You're all Mario Lopez and it's somber. One last thing.
I saw this story being reported by local Fox affiliate
on social media. It's pretty funny. The fire department was
called to an elementary school in Connecticut the other day
for a report of a forty year old man stuck
in a tube slide on the playground. So it's on
a Saturday. So it turns out it was just some
dat out there with his kids. He was hitting the
(17:56):
slides and he had there were getting stuck. They had
cut the slide open to free all. They didn't try
loom of any sort.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Yeah, just put some baby oil down here.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
It'll slide down. Authorities gave the man oxygen. Said he
was extremely uncomfortable. He was stuck in there for about
ninety minutes, which must have felt like an eternity.
Speaker 1 (18:13):

Would you rather have a laugh that sounds like a

I'd rather cry like a cartoon character because I don't

But what what if you laugh so hard you start crying?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Ooh, that's that's I'm conflicted. Now, well then I couldn't

Personal stuff, not too crazy, but just more annoying. So
I feel you, Alex, I feel you. Hopefully you'll be
ables to get through it.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Ha more Mario Lopez coming up a Mario Courtney Lopez.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Don't forget to follow us on ig AD On Mario Lopez,
you never miss any of our radio fun. Speaking of
ig I was scrolling earlier and I thought this was interesting.
We make hundreds of choices every day, and most of
them are easy enough, but some of them named the
most stressful decisions choices related to moving, work, relationships, even
whether you should text your X, they tend to be
(04:16):
more challenging.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
A new study says the decisions we stress over most
include accepting or quitting a job and investing money. But
also near the top of the list is driving a
car when we're tired, have a couple of drinks, are distracted,
or during bad weather.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
You shouldn't drive during any of those things.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Yeah, I don't understand. Yeah, do you want to text
your X?
Speaker 2 (04:36):
No, evidently you do, since it's on your mind.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
It's not on my mind. I'd rather throw up.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
You're on, Mario Courtney Lopez. Some quick buzz. Ariana Grande
hitting the road next year for the first time since
twenty nineteen, so it's been a minute. The Eternal Sunshine
Tour will be kicking off June sixth in Oakland, California,
playing twenty two shows in nine North American cities, including
La Atlanta and Brooklyn.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
The North American leg leg Up will wrap up August.
Do you guys know what that's from? Nope?
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Um, isn't it like energy?
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Don't explain it, just keep going.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
It will wrap up August fifth in Chicago before she
heads to London for five shows with Mario dot com
To find out everything you need to know and where
let Up come from.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
I'm Mario Courtney Lopez. If you're a dog person like
all of us here, it turns out your pup might
be more like you than you even realize. Three and
four dog owners say their dog mirrors their personality. Introverts
often describe their dogs as calm, cautious, even a little stubborn,
while extroverts are likely to have outgoing, affectionate, inquitty pets.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
I agree with this. In fact, eighty two percent of
extroverts say that their dog matches their own lively personality.
So whether you're a quiet homebody or the life of
the party, chances are your furry friend is right there
reflecting you back. My dogs are me.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
You're more Oscar Sol.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
That's okay, That's that's fine. Oscar's amazing.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
I love Oscar More.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Mario Lopez coming up.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
You are on with Courtney Lopez quickly saying congrats again

(06:29):
thank you. Nominate your favorite teacher now at on with
Mario dot Com slash Teachers.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
You're on Mario Lopez. Few more songs and then gonna
fire up zoom and chat with the ladies in the
new Desperately Devoted podcast. Terry Hatcher, Andrea Bowen and Emerson
Tenney back to get the scoop on the new podcast
and more when they join us next. It's up Brol
Mario Lopez joining me right now. The hosts of the
new podcast Desperately Devoted Terry Hatcher, Andrea Bowen and Emerson Tenny.
(07:10):
How are you, ladies? We're great, good, Thank you for
taking the time. So in the new podcast, you're going
to be rewatching Desperate Housewives, the iconic show. But the
twist here, Terry, you have your real life daughter Emerson
as a host and your TV daughter from the series,
Andrea as the other hosts. That's a fun dynamic. God,
(07:31):
isn't that great.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
I'm surrounded by brilliant women. Andrea actually kind of brought
the idea to me, maybe with thinking that her and
I would do it together, and then I was the
one that said, like, wouldn't it be amazing? Since Emerson
is a writer, she's not an actor, and she's also
never seen it before, and so she's, you know, twenty seven.
(07:53):
We've got that generation. We have Andrew who's thirty five,
and me who's eighty, and so we have all these
different points of view of this iconic show. And plus
we love each other, so we're really excited.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
That's so much fun and it's so cool. I can't believe, though, Emerson,
it is funny because I feel really old. I remember
when you were a little little girl. It's crazy all
grown up now. Time goes by so quick. I can't
believe it's the first time You're got to watch this series.
Was that a deliberate move on your part?
Speaker 6 (08:24):
Well, you know, I think I was way too young
to watch it when it first came out.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
I mean I was seven when the pilot aired. Why
I remember you?
Speaker 7 (08:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (08:32):
And then and then you know, there wasn't streaming for
a while. I feel like it was really during COVID
in twenty twenty when a lot of my friends from
college I think it was when Desperate Housewives first came out,
either on Netflix or maybe it was Hulu, and I
had all these friends from college who you know, had
not really grown up necessarily watching the show reaching out
to me, going, wait, is this Your mom? Is your mom?
(08:53):
Susan your mom who came to parents' weekend when we
were in college. And so when this opportunity presented itself,
it was such an easy yes because I am a screenwriter.
It is such an iconic piece of television. Not to
mention that my mom is amazing and it's so fun
to get to celebrate her and watch her achievements in
that show.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
And I'm loving it. I know your mom is fantastic
in it, all right, More with the Ladies coming up
right after a quick break.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
More Fun on the Way On with Mario Lopez.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
A Maria Lopez got the three Ladies of desperately devoted
on Zoom with me, Terry Hatcher, Andrew Bowen and Emerson Tenny.
What are your thoughts Terry and looking back and rewatching
it now?
Speaker 5 (09:33):
And well I also like Andrea, I think both of
us obviously we've seen it before, but not.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
In over decades. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Sure.
Speaker 5 (09:43):
And I have to say I was so I don't
even know the I mean, shock and awe really went.
I just the pilot, just the first two minutes of
the pilot, before any of the main actors even enter
the scene. Really just the street itself and the whole
like kind of Mary Alice set up when she does
(10:05):
what she does.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
I mean, you can't.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
I was gonna say, you have spoiler I think you
have spoiler alerts on a show that's twenty one years old.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
You see, You're good, You're good. But I really felt
like it.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
The jumping off point was with Steria. Lane is a
big star and the writing is so amazing, and every
single actor in it is just I just I can't
get over it. It's like watching a show that I
wasn't in. Like I so it really is holding up at.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Least so far.
Speaker 5 (10:39):
And uh, I'm we're really enjoying it. And you know, hindsight,
it just.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
It just it's just joy.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
I mean, these guys every every episode when we do
when we do our podcast, we talk about our individual highlights,
and sometimes we'll say, like, what line jumped out at us,
what line of dialogue jumped out at us the most?
And for me, it's just constant.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
It's to the point.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Now, let's stop talking about this line.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah we are.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah, it is true.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
I won't say the line because I've been saying. But
everything I pick it's Marcia. I just keep going back to,
like three is so amazing. I just, I mean, everyone's amazing,
but I think that character and Marsha's performance of it
is I don't know, it's just it's just genius.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
All right, ladies, Hank tight we're gonna play some more
music and talk some about talking to the ladies of
the New Desperately Devoted podcast. Harry Hatcher, Andrew Bowen and Emerson. Tenny,
you're on with Mario Lopez, and please get back to
what you're saying.
Speaker 7 (11:36):
I mean, we talk about this because we mentioned, as
Emerson said, we've only we're only at the kind of
beginning of the first season, but so quickly watching the
first few episodes, you know, you're just so committed to
this world.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
You're just you're You're.
Speaker 7 (11:50):
Fascinated by these people and their friendships and what they're hiding,
and it's it's fantastic television. And I think that there's
a there's a lane for rewatch podcas's happening, But I
imagine not everybody gets to rewatch their show with, you know,
so much pride and so much entertainment values still to
reap from today. And I watch it as now a
(12:12):
fan like I am very much a fan of Desperate Housewives,
and that feels really cool.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Twenty one years after it premiered.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Amara Lopez catching up with the ladies from the Desperately
Devoted podcast. And what I find fascinating is Desperate Housewives
was such a phenomenon. It it initially spawned the Real
Housewives franchise in Brava, which now just dominates the whole network.
And I don't know how many franchises are. It's bizarre
to see how far that's come. But essentially springboarding from
(12:42):
your show, no, it really did you know.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
I did a little research into this and the word
housewife itself kind of fell out of favor, like all
the way back in the seventies when you had the
liberation of women and the free you know, freedom and
the bra burning, and in a way, that idea of
that sort of greed character of the perfect housewife didn't
(13:05):
really exist until Mark Cherry brought this show back and
the word housewives. He really you know, created that resurgence
have that idea, and you're right, Bravo took off with it.
I used to say back in the day that Mark
Cherry deserved some small percentage.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Of all of that, which I don't think he ever got, but.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
He should have.
Speaker 7 (13:27):
But I mean it's true, and as a as a
Bravo Real Housewives fan, I think about it every time
because they're openings, they're holding the orange, or they're holding
this or that that for their various cities that they're in,
and it's just.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
So obvious what the source material is.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
But also can I just say, does kind of bring
us back to like one of the things we're doing
is we are analyzing and rewatching the show, but we're
also using it as a springboard to talk about modern
day culture and certainly as issues apply to women which
is what's happening on.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
The Real Housewives too, you know.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
So we have that aspect of bringing all of our
different lives into our podcast, and hopefully those things will
be people think, people that things, people want to hear
or inspired by.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Congratulations and congratulations to all you ladies. Everyone. Please be
sure to check out the new podcast, Desperately Devoted, which
you can hear right now on iHeartRadio or wherever you
get podcasts. Thanks for stopping by. Thank you so much
for having us.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
I would say go put on a shirt, but don't.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Thank you. Thank You're The full interview now at on
with Mario dot Com. More Mario Lopez on the.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Way You're all Mario Courtney Lopez back to the music
in a secent first quarto, trying to make us think
with a random thought, Oh, which you got out?
Speaker 4 (14:45):
So booty and butt are synonyms, call and dial are synonyms,
but a booty call and a butt dial are very
different things.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
You know what, that's probably the most poignant random thought
you've had. Makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
I'm sad now I just realized Mario, who used to
butt dial me on a regular basis, has not done
it in like two years.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
You know you don't need it in me. I shut off.
I don't know my promise. I think I shut the
phone off or not shut it off and shut the
screen off. But I guess I don't because I put
it in my pocket.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
And you have been for the last two years. I
haven't gotten one in.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
A while, but I've been getting tooty alive. It's like random,
PI don't why Oh, Mario Courtney Lopez keeping the music going,
his cordo tries to make a slab with a new
mom joke, what you got?
Speaker 4 (15:30):
What's made of leather? And sounds like a sneeze?
Speaker 2 (15:34):
What a shoe? Wow? That was good and that was
a good sneeze too, Okay, props on that one. Get
back to the music, Mario Courtney Lopez. So I posted
this the other day and tagged my sister. It said,
they give you two hundred million, but your sister gotta
(15:54):
go to jail for a year. What would you do?
I responded, Oh, she's going to jail, but when she
gets out, she's gonna have a one hundred million waiting
on her. And my sister took offense to that and said,
you're so mean. Why would she take a fit.
Speaker 8 (16:05):
I said, I just got you. One hundred million dollars
a year is nothing. I would happily go for a
year one hundred million, substantial amount of money. The real
question becomes, you're foolish if you don't for a year. Seriously,
anybody here would not would know.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Would rightly be on a plane right now to turn
my sister in.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
No, I'm talking about would you would do it yourself?
Even if you could do it.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
I would stage a crime to turn my to make
my sister go to.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Yeah, but even make it about yourself. You would do
a year.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Week two hundred million or a hundred million.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
Yeah, So the real question becomes, I think everyone would.
The real question, woul becomes how low would you go
to go a year?
Speaker 4 (16:39):
I would do it for fifty million.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Would you do it for fifty million?
Speaker 4 (16:42):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (16:43):
Or something? The year in jail at your prison. Yes,
I don't think I go. I don't think I go
below fifty million.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
So forty million, you're not doing it?
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Eh, more fun on the way on with Mario Lopez.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
You're making goals for twenty twenty six. Yeah, Mario and
Courtney Lopez here saving money exercise and weren't working on
their mental health. Are Americans top New Year's resolutions heading
into the new year, At least according to a new
survey that just dropped.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
Goals to improve our mental health include more time with
the family, better sleep quality, going for a brisk walk,
and spending more time outdoors. Man He also said they
want to spend more time listening to music and positive podcasts.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
So close to the end of the night for us,
Mario Lopez, you got to squeeze in one last thing.
We'd love to squeeze in a request or two before
we get out of here.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
You're all Mario Lopez and it's somber. One last thing.
I saw this story being reported by local Fox affiliate
on social media. It's pretty funny. The fire department was
called to an elementary school in Connecticut the other day
for a report of a forty year old man stuck
in a tube slide on the playground. So it's on
a Saturday. So it turns out it was just some
dat out there with his kids. He was hitting the
(17:56):
slides and he had there were getting stuck. They had
cut the slide open to free all. They didn't try
loom of any sort.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Yeah, just put some baby oil down here.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
It'll slide down. Authorities gave the man oxygen. Said he
was extremely uncomfortable. He was stuck in there for about
ninety minutes, which must have felt like an eternity.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Oh yeah, more Mario Lopez coming up.
