Speaker 2 (03:59):
Just an excellent actor and just appreciate your work, Sirs.
I wanted to tell you, and I don't say.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
That too often.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
There's a great start to the interview.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I was excited when Arro's gonna interview you, and I
don't say that too often, right, guys.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
I was like, I love that guy.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
He's awesome, and I'll be checking out this movie. Congrats
on it. Tell us about the Radleys.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
What is it about?
Speaker 7 (04:22):
The Radley's is a comedy vampire movie.
Speaker 8 (04:28):
About about a family living a boring, dead end suburban
life and you don't really know what's up with these guys.
They all seem very pale, and then you realize that
actually what's happened is something catastrophic happens in about ten
or fifteen minutes into the movie, and everybody has to
(04:49):
be told what.
Speaker 7 (04:49):
The big secret is.
Speaker 9 (04:50):
The big secret is is the dad, Peter, has moved
them into this dead end town in order to stop
being vampires and his wife were essentially in the program,
in the vampire Anonymous program.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
And the kids just wake up.
Speaker 7 (05:06):
We go, wait a second, we're vampires.
Speaker 8 (05:09):
We had no idea, and then teenagers and then all
chaos did all hell breaks loose for the rest of
the movies.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Uh and uh and that's it. That's that's that's the setup,
that's the setup for the film.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
That's wild and uh. Obviously very different from a lot
of your other work. The Radley's now in theater is
in od demand hold on, I'm gonna take at break
and i'mnna come back with Damian.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Lewis for Marial Lopez.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Mario Lopez here talking about the new movie The Radleys
with actor Damian Lewis. So, is it a comedy horror?
How would you describe the Geenre?
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yeah, you know, it's not a slasher movie.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
It's not. It's not a it's not a.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Fright you know, fright night movie. But it's but there is,
there's but but there's there's there's.
Speaker 8 (05:52):
Enough blood in it, and uh, and there are some good, darker,
frightening moments, and but it's also very funny at times.
It is it is like a darkly comic twist on
the vampire film.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
It's also like a love story.
Speaker 8 (06:05):
There's this really lovely love story in this family between
the mom and the dad and then the sun and
he has a coming of age sort of love story
that's out of the whole thing. And then he has
this big moral dilemma, which is the big twist right
at the end of the film, which I.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Won't tell you about. And so it's kind of all
those things. It's all those things, got it.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Got it all right, It's fascinating, good timing right now,
of course, with Halloween around the corner to check it out.
So congrats on that. I got a lot more I
want to ask, but first's play some more music. Mario
Lopez here with actor Damian Lewis from the new movie
The Radleys. And I was a huge fan of Billions,
also of Homeland, both of which when you were no
longer in the show, I can confidently say they fell
(06:47):
off again to your credit of your ability. However, there
are a few spinoffs in the works. Potentially they're saying,
for Billions, could you see yourself returning into that world?
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Never say never? Okay, uh, never say never.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
You know, I'm always I'm open to all things, you know.
Speaker 8 (07:06):
The uh, the uh. I like the idea of movies
of TV shows. I don't know, do they work, how
often do they work.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
I'm trying to think. I'm trying to think of an example.
I didn't love the Sopranos movie. That's the first one
that popped into my head. If it's done well, they're
also gonna do a movie what my son told me
too on the Mandalorian, which is a huge shit when
pretty good.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Real That makes sense because that's a whole universe. That's
a whole universe.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
So that.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
I'm trying to think of another example, not one comes
to it. If done right, I believe, I believe it
will do.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Oh, they're gonna do it. They're gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
They're gonna do I didn't see the down now people,
they're gonna do Peaky Blinder as a movie.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
I'm looking forward to seeing that.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Right, So that feels like that.
Speaker 5 (07:52):
You'd be good in that. By the way, you'd be
good in that too.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I'm surprised that that hasn't come across that with Killian
Murphy and Tom Hardy.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Ooh, that'd be great, that'd be solid.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Right as I'm doing my cast doing my casting director
right there.
Speaker 8 (08:04):
I'll take your help anywhere and I'll give you, but
you'll get commissioned.
Speaker 7 (08:06):
So if you just put it out.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
There, sounds good.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Well, why don't we take a moment now to play
some more music. Joan Mario Lopez hanging out with actor
Damien Lewis.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
From the new movie The Radleys.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
And this is pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
We got a record coming out next year. What sounds
inspired these particular songs?
Speaker 8 (08:24):
Well, I wrote my first album came out last year,
and I suppose that was kind of rootsy roots see
kind of singer songwriter, wrote most of it on an
acoustic guitar. Nice, but it's got a sort of bluesy
jazzy vibe to it as well, a bit of rock
and roll that sounds like I've just covered everything so
(08:44):
hip hop and it's not heavy metal, got it instead
of everything in between? And then uh, and then next
next year, the record I've made is is a.
Speaker 7 (08:56):
Little bit more sort of indie rock.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
I guess in Field, you're gonna.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
Be going on tour doing any shows?
Speaker 7 (09:03):
Yeah, I went on, I went on.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
I went on to.
Speaker 8 (09:07):
Played twenty twenty five dates just here in the UK,
and I'll go again out out again next year, maybe
come to America.
Speaker 7 (09:14):
I hope.
Speaker 8 (09:14):
It's quite difficult now to come to America and tour
and get all the visas into this and then right
the other and bring your band et cetera, et cetera,
et cetera.
Speaker 7 (09:22):
So but who knows, You never know what. We played
the Mercury Lounge in New York down on.
Speaker 3 (09:26):

What on Mario Lopez hear this should be exciting news
for all the nineties Nickelodeon kids. Paramount is making a
live action Rugrats movie. But there's a little bit of
a twist. All the babies will be CGI generated. It's
kind of like how they made the Sonic the Hedgehog movies.
SNL's Mikey Day is writing the script. The guy behind
Pitch Perfect we'll direct it.

So there you go.

Speaker 4 (11:33):
Whitebird in theaters. A boy who was shunned by his
classmate becomes her savior when the Nazis invade France.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
Oh that's a heavy topic.
Speaker 7 (11:43):
Could be cool.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
Yeah, it's what's inside. It's on Netflix. Chaos ensues at
a lavish weekend party when an old friend arrives with
the mysterious suitcase and proposes a unique party game.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
You gotta watch those party games. Those party games can be.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Is that a diddy party?
Speaker 6 (11:59):
Hen time, there's an old friend with a mysterious suitcase showing.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
Up the platform too. It's on Netflix. A mysterious new
leader imposes their rule inside the platform, where lower levels
are left to starve on scraps while upper levels take
more than their fair share.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Oh so society.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Based exactly more Mario Lopez coming up.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
You're all, Mario Lopez.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Time is running out to get in on our new

Speaker 5 (13:15):
Just go to allmy dot com for all the info.
A Mario Lopez and Will Smith knows how to clear.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Room on Victorio Hollywood Bush.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
So the director of Men in Black was recently spilling
the tea on Will Smith. Apparently his farts really pack
a punch. Can't believe I just said that line.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
I ah can't either.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
While they were filming, Will let one loose and they
had to clear the set for three hours. Will was
apologizing profusely to Tommy Lee Jones, who kept saying it
was fine, even as he was running away from the smell.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
Tommy Lee, you.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Can't look at his face until if he's offended or not.
Tommy Lee Jones and I've interviewed him a few times.
He is one of a few people that you know,
he doesn't like to be interviewed. You know he doesn't
want to be there, so you just better be polite,
quick with your questions, professional, and then get out. So
I can't imagine over complicated. Don't over complicate. I can't
(14:17):
imagine he was too happy getting blown up on the
set and then having to leave. Ironically, we experienced something
here after our producer Fraser Blue over the day.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
Actually and we had to leave. I'm sorry for putting
you on blasts. It was in our studio at the Grove,
I know, and you killed. We had to lead.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
This because you had some sort of oh me actually
asked you had told us that I'm sorry, I don't
feel good, don't make fun of me. And we had
to shut down production and leave and go home. And
then the next day you apologize for the brutality, just
like Will Smith was apologizing profusely in solidarity with listening.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Mario Lopez coming up, Mario Courtney Lopez, you're what obscure
holiday are we celebrating for?
Speaker 3 (15:00):
October fourth?
Speaker 4 (15:01):
Nothing obscure about this. I'll be stopping by there today.
It is National Cinnamon roll Day.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Oh man, when you get a lot cinema role and
cinnebon of course comes to mind when you're walking past
and that's smell.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
Oh, there's nothing like it.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
There's nothing like it.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
Mario Lopez here with my wife Courtney.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
Fiftieth season of SNL continues tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
The host is stand up Nate Bargatzi and Coldplay is
going to be the musical guest. I'm gonna be playing
some songs on the new album Moon Music, so'll be
sure to check that out. Let's get back to the tunes.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You're all, Mario Courtney Lopez.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Time for another fake debate where the topics are made
up right on the spot.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
But the passion is real.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Who's prone? Who's con Today?
Speaker 6 (15:40):
You will be conn, Courtney will be pro. You'll have
fifteen seconds to make your case, ten second rebuttal afterwards.
Your topic today for the fake debate is debates.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Debates are really important because it really shows individuals and
how much they know about certain situations. And I also
like it because it is short for my nickname.
Speaker 5 (16:02):
Debates.
Speaker 7 (16:03):
The baby.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Debates are utterly pointless because people end up lying, not
telling the full truth. The moderators come into question, you
end up believing pardon.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
Me, how dare you?
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (16:19):
They you end up believing more upset after watching it,
and you're not none the better for it, Miss Lopez.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
We need debates because it shows the true people and
what they are inside and what they are made of,
whether it's cotton wool or actual organs.
Speaker 5 (16:38):
Mister, I want to debate you, That's all I want.
Let's do it.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Do not mute my microphone.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
All right?
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Well, I do love the fake debate segments because it's
the only time I think in your life that you
probably use the word individuals.
Speaker 7 (16:51):
Individuals.
Speaker 6 (16:52):
I said that, Yes see, you didn't even know, but
almost every debate you say it.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
I have a friend, I have a friend of mine
that always talks I'm the type of individual he says that.
He says that all the time, Like, well, you just
like got the type of guy off, the type of
the individual.
Speaker 7 (17:06):
It's so stupid.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
More Mario Lopez on the.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Way, Omar Courtney Lopez.

you the final word with our comment of the week.

What do you got?
Speaker 4 (17:16):
This is from at six foot Candy and she says,
when I tell my husband I need two minutes, I
mean two football minutes, So actually twenty minutes, a timeout
and maybe a snack break at least.
Speaker 5 (17:26):

Speaker 4 (17:29):
And that's like your two minutes.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Yeah, like what you mean?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
My two minutes are pretty actual in here? What are
you talking about my two minutes?
Speaker 4 (17:37):
I'm just saying that's the reality.
Speaker 5 (17:38):

One of my favorite actors, Damian Lewis, who starred in
Homeland in Billions.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
And I gotta tell you, I'm a big fan of yours,
big fan anything that you.
Speaker 5 (03:56):
Appear, and I make sure to watch.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Just an excellent actor and just appreciate your work, Sirs.
I wanted to tell you, and I don't say.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
That too often.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
There's a great start to the interview.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I was excited when Arro's gonna interview you, and I
don't say that too often, right, guys.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
I was like, I love that guy.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
He's awesome, and I'll be checking out this movie. Congrats
on it. Tell us about the Radleys.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
What is it about?
Speaker 7 (04:22):
The Radley's is a comedy vampire movie.
Speaker 8 (04:28):
About about a family living a boring, dead end suburban
life and you don't really know what's up with these guys.
They all seem very pale, and then you realize that
actually what's happened is something catastrophic happens in about ten
or fifteen minutes into the movie, and everybody has to
(04:49):
be told what.
Speaker 7 (04:49):
The big secret is.
Speaker 9 (04:50):
The big secret is is the dad, Peter, has moved
them into this dead end town in order to stop
being vampires and his wife were essentially in the program,
in the vampire Anonymous program.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
And the kids just wake up.
Speaker 7 (05:06):
We go, wait a second, we're vampires.
Speaker 8 (05:09):
We had no idea, and then teenagers and then all
chaos did all hell breaks loose for the rest of
the movies.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Uh and uh and that's it. That's that's that's the setup,
that's the setup for the film.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
That's wild and uh. Obviously very different from a lot
of your other work. The Radley's now in theater is
in od demand hold on, I'm gonna take at break
and i'mnna come back with Damian.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Lewis for Marial Lopez.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Mario Lopez here talking about the new movie The Radleys
with actor Damian Lewis. So, is it a comedy horror?
How would you describe the Geenre?
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yeah, you know, it's not a slasher movie.
Speaker 7 (05:44):
It's not. It's not a it's not a.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Fright you know, fright night movie. But it's but there is,
there's but but there's there's there's.
Speaker 8 (05:52):
Enough blood in it, and uh, and there are some good, darker,
frightening moments, and but it's also very funny at times.
It is it is like a darkly comic twist on
the vampire film.
Speaker 7 (06:04):
It's also like a love story.
Speaker 8 (06:05):
There's this really lovely love story in this family between
the mom and the dad and then the sun and
he has a coming of age sort of love story
that's out of the whole thing. And then he has
this big moral dilemma, which is the big twist right
at the end of the film, which I.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Won't tell you about. And so it's kind of all
those things. It's all those things, got it.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Got it all right, It's fascinating, good timing right now,
of course, with Halloween around the corner to check it out.
So congrats on that. I got a lot more I
want to ask, but first's play some more music. Mario
Lopez here with actor Damian Lewis from the new movie
The Radleys. And I was a huge fan of Billions,
also of Homeland, both of which when you were no
longer in the show, I can confidently say they fell
(06:47):
off again to your credit of your ability. However, there
are a few spinoffs in the works. Potentially they're saying,
for Billions, could you see yourself returning into that world?
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Never say never? Okay, uh, never say never.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
You know, I'm always I'm open to all things, you know.
Speaker 8 (07:06):
The uh, the uh. I like the idea of movies
of TV shows. I don't know, do they work, how
often do they work.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
I'm trying to think. I'm trying to think of an example.
I didn't love the Sopranos movie. That's the first one
that popped into my head. If it's done well, they're
also gonna do a movie what my son told me
too on the Mandalorian, which is a huge shit when
pretty good.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Real That makes sense because that's a whole universe. That's
a whole universe.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
So that.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
I'm trying to think of another example, not one comes
to it. If done right, I believe, I believe it
will do.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Oh, they're gonna do it. They're gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
They're gonna do I didn't see the down now people,
they're gonna do Peaky Blinder as a movie.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
I'm looking forward to seeing that.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Right, So that feels like that.
Speaker 5 (07:52):
You'd be good in that. By the way, you'd be
good in that too.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I'm surprised that that hasn't come across that with Killian
Murphy and Tom Hardy.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Ooh, that'd be great, that'd be solid.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Right as I'm doing my cast doing my casting director
right there.
Speaker 8 (08:04):
I'll take your help anywhere and I'll give you, but
you'll get commissioned.
Speaker 7 (08:06):
So if you just put it out.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
There, sounds good.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
Well, why don't we take a moment now to play
some more music. Joan Mario Lopez hanging out with actor
Damien Lewis.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
From the new movie The Radleys.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
And this is pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
We got a record coming out next year. What sounds
inspired these particular songs?
Speaker 8 (08:24):
Well, I wrote my first album came out last year,
and I suppose that was kind of rootsy roots see
kind of singer songwriter, wrote most of it on an
acoustic guitar. Nice, but it's got a sort of bluesy
jazzy vibe to it as well, a bit of rock
and roll that sounds like I've just covered everything so
(08:44):
hip hop and it's not heavy metal, got it instead
of everything in between? And then uh, and then next
next year, the record I've made is is a.
Speaker 7 (08:56):
Little bit more sort of indie rock.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
I guess in Field, you're gonna.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
Be going on tour doing any shows?
Speaker 7 (09:03):
Yeah, I went on, I went on.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
I went on to.
Speaker 8 (09:07):
Played twenty twenty five dates just here in the UK,
and I'll go again out out again next year, maybe
come to America.
Speaker 7 (09:14):
I hope.
Speaker 8 (09:14):
It's quite difficult now to come to America and tour
and get all the visas into this and then right
the other and bring your band et cetera, et cetera,
et cetera.
Speaker 7 (09:22):
So but who knows, You never know what. We played
the Mercury Lounge in New York down on.

What on Mario Lopez hear this should be exciting news
for all the nineties Nickelodeon kids. Paramount is making a
live action Rugrats movie. But there's a little bit of
a twist. All the babies will be CGI generated. It's
kind of like how they made the Sonic the Hedgehog movies.
SNL's Mikey Day is writing the script. The guy behind
Pitch Perfect we'll direct it.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
So there you go.
Speaker 2 (11:12):

Speaker 4 (11:33):
Whitebird in theaters. A boy who was shunned by his
classmate becomes her savior when the Nazis invade France.
Speaker 5 (11:41):
Oh that's a heavy topic.
Speaker 7 (11:43):
Could be cool.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
Yeah, it's what's inside. It's on Netflix. Chaos ensues at
a lavish weekend party when an old friend arrives with
the mysterious suitcase and proposes a unique party game.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
You gotta watch those party games. Those party games can be.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Is that a diddy party?
Speaker 6 (11:59):
Hen time, there's an old friend with a mysterious suitcase showing.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
Up the platform too. It's on Netflix. A mysterious new
leader imposes their rule inside the platform, where lower levels
are left to starve on scraps while upper levels take
more than their fair share.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Oh so society.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Based exactly more Mario Lopez coming up.
Speaker 5 (12:22):

Just go to allmy dot com for all the info.
A Mario Lopez and Will Smith knows how to clear.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Room on Victorio Hollywood Bush.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
So the director of Men in Black was recently spilling
the tea on Will Smith. Apparently his farts really pack
a punch. Can't believe I just said that line.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
I ah can't either.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
While they were filming, Will let one loose and they
had to clear the set for three hours. Will was
apologizing profusely to Tommy Lee Jones, who kept saying it
was fine, even as he was running away from the smell.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
Tommy Lee, you.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Can't look at his face until if he's offended or not.
Tommy Lee Jones and I've interviewed him a few times.
He is one of a few people that you know,
he doesn't like to be interviewed. You know he doesn't
want to be there, so you just better be polite,
quick with your questions, professional, and then get out. So
I can't imagine over complicated. Don't over complicate. I can't
(14:17):
imagine he was too happy getting blown up on the
set and then having to leave. Ironically, we experienced something
here after our producer Fraser Blue over the day.
Speaker 5 (14:27):
Actually and we had to leave. I'm sorry for putting
you on blasts. It was in our studio at the Grove,
I know, and you killed. We had to lead.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
This because you had some sort of oh me actually
asked you had told us that I'm sorry, I don't
feel good, don't make fun of me. And we had
to shut down production and leave and go home. And
then the next day you apologize for the brutality, just
like Will Smith was apologizing profusely in solidarity with listening.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Mario Lopez coming up, Mario Courtney Lopez, you're what obscure
holiday are we celebrating for?
Speaker 3 (15:00):
October fourth?
Speaker 4 (15:01):
Nothing obscure about this. I'll be stopping by there today.
It is National Cinnamon roll Day.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Oh man, when you get a lot cinema role and
cinnebon of course comes to mind when you're walking past
and that's smell.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
Oh, there's nothing like it.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
There's nothing like it.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
Mario Lopez here with my wife Courtney.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
Fiftieth season of SNL continues tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
The host is stand up Nate Bargatzi and Coldplay is
going to be the musical guest. I'm gonna be playing
some songs on the new album Moon Music, so'll be
sure to check that out. Let's get back to the tunes.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You're all, Mario Courtney Lopez.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Time for another fake debate where the topics are made
up right on the spot.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
But the passion is real.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Who's prone? Who's con Today?
Speaker 6 (15:40):
You will be conn, Courtney will be pro. You'll have
fifteen seconds to make your case, ten second rebuttal afterwards.
Your topic today for the fake debate is debates.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
Debates are really important because it really shows individuals and
how much they know about certain situations. And I also
like it because it is short for my nickname.
Speaker 5 (16:02):
Debates.
Speaker 7 (16:03):
The baby.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Debates are utterly pointless because people end up lying, not
telling the full truth. The moderators come into question, you
end up believing pardon.
Speaker 5 (16:18):
Me, how dare you?
Speaker 3 (16:19):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (16:19):
They you end up believing more upset after watching it,
and you're not none the better for it, Miss Lopez.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
We need debates because it shows the true people and
what they are inside and what they are made of,
whether it's cotton wool or actual organs.
Speaker 5 (16:38):
Mister, I want to debate you, That's all I want.
Let's do it.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Do not mute my microphone.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
All right?
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Well, I do love the fake debate segments because it's
the only time I think in your life that you
probably use the word individuals.
Speaker 7 (16:51):
Individuals.
Speaker 6 (16:52):
I said that, Yes see, you didn't even know, but
almost every debate you say it.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
I have a friend, I have a friend of mine
that always talks I'm the type of individual he says that.
He says that all the time, Like, well, you just
like got the type of guy off, the type of
the individual.
Speaker 7 (17:06):
It's so stupid.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
More Mario Lopez on the.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Way, Omar Courtney Lopez.
Speaker 5 (17:11):
Before we take off of the weekend, we're gonna give
you the final word with our comment of the week.
Speaker 7 (17:15):
What do you got?
Speaker 4 (17:16):
This is from at six foot Candy and she says,
when I tell my husband I need two minutes, I
mean two football minutes, So actually twenty minutes, a timeout
and maybe a snack break at least.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
Your honest six foot candy.
Speaker 4 (17:29):
And that's like your two minutes.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Yeah, like what you mean?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
My two minutes are pretty actual in here? What are
you talking about my two minutes?
Speaker 4 (17:37):
I'm just saying that's the reality.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
When I say two minutes, I mean two minutes.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
I respect your time.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
You mean to zero zero?
Speaker 1 (17:45):
