This is Sex in the City of Angels podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Welcome back to Sex in the City of angel We
just wrapped up season one episodes one through.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Twelve and our bonus episode with the man himself, John Sally.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
So much fun this season has been.
Speaker 5 (00:32):
It was so much fun, honestly, like he was real
and everything that I like from season one that I shared,
I'm like, see a grown ass man gets it, you know,
these young boys. We talked about the fifty to fifty.
We talked about what you know what that culture and
sex and the city, how that influenced women and how
(00:55):
it affects us today. So it's like we're just learning
so many things in unline, I need so many things.
So it was really good, you know, to touch on that.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I agree.
Speaker 6 (01:04):
There were definitely some things that he said that made
me think like, like, yeah, it's more of a game
and more of a It made me feel like you
can't take things so seriously, like take dating so seriously.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
You know, it's just about having fun, being in the moment.
That's what I got from his interview.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Personally, my favorite part was the fact when or the
part where we asked him about the rules and he
discarded them.
Speaker 7 (01:30):
He's like, what rules? Who made those up?
Speaker 5 (01:32):
Damn?
Speaker 2 (01:32):
But I believe so much in the rules that was.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
And you know what, as someone who has rebuked these rules,
I love them.
Speaker 7 (01:40):
I appreciate them.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
It made me live a little bit more freely.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
I made some decisions after our interview with John Sally,
and I was like, you know what, I don't care
because the rules don't matter.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
We love you girl.
Speaker 7 (01:55):
We got to make our own rules.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
That's the point we are in Deep Strong Women in
twenty twenty five. We can make our own rules and.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Carry and do.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
But I did love getting to know Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte,
and Miranda on a different level. Although I've watched this
show time and time and time again, doing it from
the podcast perspective just really gave me more insight to
our girls and their personalities. And I feel like we
should get more insight into our girls. So this episode
(02:29):
is things you didn't know about Sex and the City.
Did you guys know that Carrie's tutu only cost five
dollars that she wears in the classic intro They found
it in a bargain bin five dollars.
Speaker 5 (02:44):
Mine costs twenty nine ninety nine on Amazon.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Say, well, we did our little event. We all wore
our carry tou two's and they were much more than.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Five dollars twenty nine ninety nine, I paid thirteen bucks
more than five dollars.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Definitely matter five dollars.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Yeah, and now when is it the car sitting in
the trunk?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Ya?
Speaker 4 (03:02):
I don't know if I have a word again?
Speaker 6 (03:03):
Did you know that Carrie was originally meant to be
a brunette but producers changed their minds just twenty four
hours before the pilot episode was shot. I had no idea.
I can't even imagine carry a brunette.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
She looks so.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Good with blonde.
Speaker 7 (03:17):
Yeah, it suits her so good, very well.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
I love her blonde curly yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
Okay, Well, did you know that Cynthia Nixon ak Miranda
is naturally blonde?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I actually saw her in a movie where she was
a blonde, so I had a feeling. Well, I didn't
know she was naturally blonde, but I knew that she
wasn't a redhead.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
She looks good for a red head, like she looks
like red girls with her. You look natural with red hair.
Speaker 7 (03:42):
I am a natural?
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, thank you?
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Did you know Kim Cattrall had to be strongly persuaded
to take the room. She turned it down twice.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
What I why I can't imagine the show without Samantha.
She when she did accept it, she fully committed to
that character.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Do you think that she didn't like Sarah Justic Parker
way before the show started.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (04:07):
Maybe she's a difficult personality, Like I'm not surprised at
this fact because she didn't come back for Sex and
the City or for In just like that. And I
feel like there was controversy over her joining the movies,
Like I feel like she'd been over this role even before.
So now we just find out she was over this
role even before she got it.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
It also takes a certain personality to play that role.
She had so much sex. We saw her body so
many times. I could close my eyes and envision it
clearly right now, you know, So that that takes that
takes a lot of go and ask to be like, yeah,
I'll take I'll take that role, you know.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
Or maybe they didn't even think that it would go
or blow up as big as it did. You know,
she probably read the script like nah, you know.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Right, right right, But maybe it was because there was
so much sex involved that she was like, maybe I
shouldn't knew this because she was also well into her
what forties?
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Yeah, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Did you know?
Speaker 3 (05:01):
After the episode where Carrie and Miranda ate the cupcakes
for Magnolia's Bakery aired, the real life New York location
became so popular they had to hire a bouncer. Busloads
of tourists were taken to the cupcakes store every day,
resulting in skyrocketing rents for the neighboring stores.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Did they go to the bakery in season one?
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I don't think so. I don't think they did that.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
No, that wasn't a season one, but I am hearing
a lot of the things are really popular. In fact,
this just came out in the news this week where
the guy who lives in Carrie Bradshaw's apartment because they
used a real life Brownstone in New York City, yelled,
this isn't Carrie's house, my house. People can go in
there to take pictures where it's like she doesn't live here.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Bro.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
So I'm sure every restaurant or a place they had
on that show blew up afterwards.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
There's actually a Magnolia Bakery in La Have you guys?
Ever been.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Let's bring a bustload of people and go.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
You can go record over there, yeah and make it popular.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
Did you know Willie Garson, who played Stanford, was actually
set up on a blind date with Sarah Jessica Parker
before the show began, and they remained great friends.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I thought he was gay in real life.
Speaker 5 (06:07):
Yeah, he's not gay.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
He's gay.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
He's a king. He gets women, and I bet it's
like dating is hard for him because if he's not gay.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Well, no, he's Stanford from Sex and the City. People
love money. He probably has no problem.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
I had no problem. I thought this was real life.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
No, yeah, well he it is real life. But I'm
saying he.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Had money before.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Well, yeah, he was in a lot of stuff, Stanford.
I see him all the time as an actor. He
did an episode of Friends.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
But Friends was after Sex and the City or before
same time. Oh yeah, okay, So did you know that
none of the four women ever wore the same thing
twice throughout the entire series?
Speaker 6 (06:46):
That makes sense, No, I don't think Gary wore a
fur jacket in a couple episodes are jacket jacket I'm
not one sure, but.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Thanks, Yeah, it looks like it.
Speaker 7 (06:57):
Yeah, but a jack.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
It's a jacket, an outfits and outfit, so maybe.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
That's the but it says never were the same thing twice.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
What about shoes?
Speaker 4 (07:06):
We got a demunk it maybe maybe it's not true shoes.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Did you know Victoria Beckham was offered a cameo role
in the first Sex in the City movie but had
to knock it back because she was on tour rehearsals
for The Spice Girls.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Thank god she turned it down because I can't live
without the Spice Girls.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Did you know Matthew McConaughey almost didn't get his cameo
role in the episode Escape from New York where they
came to the City of Angels, But it was originally
written for Alec Baldwin, who turned it down, So this
almost didn't happen. Thank god, Thank god. Matthew McConaughey has
so much louder than than Oh yeah.
Speaker 6 (07:46):
Did you know that Aiden's dog was so scared of
him that they had to find him.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
A new dog.
Speaker 7 (07:53):
That's a red flag.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Well, the new dog liked him.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
I actually heard that more often than not were actors
one series with animals. The animals make it so much
more complicated to do a scene, or like they are
kind of hard to work with at times.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
Ooh, this one's good. Did you know season five only
had eight episodes because Sarah Jessica Parker was pregnant.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
I actually didn't know that eight. Yeah, season five is
eight episode? Yeah, well episode?
Speaker 7 (08:21):
I ever noticed that The seasons.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
Are usually like, oh no, the first season was twelve,
but everything else I guess like twenties good.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Still, yeah, I thought it was more than eight.
Speaker 7 (08:29):
So they hide it. I never noticed it.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
But season six is like extra long too, like eighteen episodes. Yeah,
I don't know how many, but I feel like it's
like more than all the other seasons.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Like it is, it's like twenty something.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
I didn't even know she had kids.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Oh yeah, I heard a rumor that when Carrie sees
eight and again for the first time after she like
broke his heart and he's like on the corner with
his little baby Tait. They calls Tater because it's like
a little potato, and the baby gets so excited with
Sarah Esca Parker's coming because it was her baby.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
I heard that, what about just.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
A rumor it wasn't her baby, But that's what I
always heard.
Speaker 7 (09:09):
So I knew that she's gone.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
She's married to Spider Man.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Sorry to.
Speaker 7 (09:15):
Inspector Gadget Man.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
He never plays Inspector Gadget Matthews Buehler.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
That thought it was Matthew brought her.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Yeah, that's him, Birds Bueler stay off and Inspector Gadget.
Speaker 6 (09:28):
I know him from that movie with Reese Wetherspoon when
she was like a student and he was like a teacher.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I forget the name of that movie though.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Was it a Lifetime movie?
Speaker 7 (09:35):
Election?
Speaker 2 (09:37):
That's the only movie I know him.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Wait, Matthew Broderick never plays Spider Man. No, man, stop, it.
Speaker 7 (09:41):
Can't get up.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
I was saw right.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Did you know the final episode was shot on a
Wednesday and aired that Sunday.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
That business baby like it? Wow, yeah, that makes sense.
Matthew Broderick, Yeah, No, he was Spider Man. My bad.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
I'm like, oh, I bet he treats her.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
So good, leaving Mary forever.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
I think Hollywood marriage is if they last, then it's
a It's a golden thing. Did you know Carrie posed
ninety two questions to the audience throughout the entire series.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
There were some good questions. I love them. They get them.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
They helped us ask questions to John Sally, It's like,
is Managa being too cruel of a rule?
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Questions?
Speaker 6 (10:31):
But how I feel did you know that the episode
before Carrie moves to Paris is where she asked her
final question, is it time to stop questioning?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Damn?
Speaker 4 (10:43):
That's powerful deep, especially if she asks ninety two of them.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
John's as someone who leads guided meditations, I always say,
just allow what is to be.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Yeah, that's it. We don't got to attach a narrative.
You don't got to question it. So good question.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
So did you know that mister Big aka John Chris
Knoth was inspired by one of the author, Candace Bushnell's
ex boyfriends, former magazine executive Ron Galotti.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
No idea, I had no idea.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
So I feel like if the author, Candish Bushnell's ex
boyfriend's former magazine executive Ron Glotti, was written in such
a like a way where you like, look up and
aspire to have this man, then Candish Bushnell, she might
have a crush on Ron Glotti and her ex boyfriend
if they were together at the time, has the right
(11:40):
to question her about that? Because what the heck is
that about? You wrote this whole character about Ron, not Ron,
That's how I feel.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
But maybe because he was so such a red flag
that she was like, this is the perfect character to
really build a whole show about, you know.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Yeah, yeah, just saying, let mean as a red flag
in the nineties in the moment, I just know, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
But he probably took her through a whole emotional roller
coaster like he did Carry.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
So that's artistic expression.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
That's what Taylerswift always does, like inspired the songs based
on some X that did some bullshit.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
So yeah, I.
Speaker 7 (12:16):
Need to look up run Galandi.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, never heard of him, Probably holled.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Did he know that? In twenty twelve the Real Life
Apartment were the exterior shots of Carrie's Stuper shot sod
for nine point six five million dollars.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Wow, Yeah, I actually did hear something like that before.
I had a good friend that lived in New York
and she actually took a picture on Carry Bradshaw Stoop
like years years back, and she did say it was
like on sell for like ten million dollars or something
like that.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
So yeah, knew that one.
Speaker 7 (12:49):
If you had the money, would you buy it?
Speaker 6 (12:51):
I got to see the inside and the inside of
what Carrie had now, damn sure not ten million dollars
for a one bedroom without a door.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
And then on top of that, like you probably got
mad fans and tourists taking pictures on your stoop all
the time.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
I like my piece.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
I am seventy five years old and a man on
the inside. Leave me alone, get off my stoop. So
I can't I can't buy it. You looked at round Galotti.
Is he a hottyman?
Speaker 7 (13:18):
Ooh, it's a no for me, dude, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Candace loved him, obviously by based off the people she hired.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
He how does even I don't even know how Candace
looks as a matter of fact.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
True, that's true. Let's google her next.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Did you know that mister BIG's wife, Natasha always wore white.
This was to convey her vanilla personality. I don't think
Natasha was vanilla personally. The way she told carry off
at that dinner and that Christian Dior dress that Carrie
was wearing.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
I don't think a vanilla woman would do that.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
Okay, So what is vanilla? What's the definition of vanilla
to you?
Speaker 3 (13:59):
I think pretty boring, basic cut and dry, cookie cutter
woman That doesn't really have fun.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Yeah, Vanilla's not a good thing.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
So if you would like what flavor would you like
to be described as like.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
Razzle, dazzle, Vanilla with rainbow sprinkles, shocked in the season,
hot budge and a cherry on top, you can be basic.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Vanilla is basic.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I took Vanilla personality as you know, just referencing, referencing
her age and the way she looks so young, And
that's the way I took it.
Speaker 6 (14:39):
Nah, Vanilla ain't good and what and what book is
vanilla a good thing?
Speaker 1 (14:43):
No?
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Yeah, vanilla sex is lame. Vanilla personalities are lame. Vanilla's
lame unless you add some rainbow sprinkles.
Speaker 6 (14:50):
Did you know the book Love Letters of Great Men,
which Carrie borrows from the library and the first film
didn't exist, but the demand was so high that it
was actually published.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Oh I love that.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
That is power?
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Power is power?
Speaker 6 (15:07):
Is that the line where they were like ever mine, ever,
thine ever ours?
Speaker 2 (15:12):
I would assume.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Yeah, we use that on our trivia night. Yes, that
will have more in the future. We are getting dms
asking when's the next event?
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Really?
Speaker 3 (15:21):
Yeah, you want to know and follow us at Sex
and the City of angels because our next event is
coming it.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
Woo okay, Well, did you know that when Trey and
Charlotte got engaged at Tiffany's it was fake? It was
a fake store window. Did you know that? Because Tiffany's
wouldn't allow the crew inside for security purposes and make
sure to send an employee to approve the fake window
before it was shot.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
That's that's a little extra.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
Don't you think you have insurnds? Don't you?
Speaker 3 (15:49):
And then it's like if you if you don't want
them recording there, then don't be all in there.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Oh, let me see if the fake is good enough
for us.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Let us use your real location or don't JK, tiff
He's feel free to send me free though.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Did you know the boy who plays Brady in the
first movie is the same baby who played Brady in
the show.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
Not Surprised looks just like good way to keep it consistent.
I only think about him in just like that having
sex with his girl. Yeah extra, Oh my god, that
show is so hard to watch.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I was imagining that kid. So is that kid the
same baby?
Speaker 4 (16:22):
I think the movie?
Speaker 6 (16:24):
That's when him Steve Miranda they were all out to
dinner and he was like, I gotta go to the bathroom.
Remember Miranda, Magda, Steve and Brady were all out to dinner.
It's when Steve and Miranda you can see the tension
in their relationship. She has to get home and do
a brief. He's like, let the sweet nanny finish her dinner.
(16:46):
And Brady's in that scene, he's still a kid. He's
like a five year old kid.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Was Margan pizza out the trash?
Speaker 1 (16:51):
No?
Speaker 6 (16:51):
That was that was Steve's mom that had Yeah, but
there was a there was a scene in the movie
where they were all out, and that's when you knew
Miranda and Steve had tension because Miranda was like so
serious about everything and Steve is like, let's just chill,
like you got whipped on your lip.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Yeah, And just a couple of other rumors or things
that you didn't know. Did you know Charlotte and mister
Big dated in real life?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
I heard it. I saw a picture, but I don't
know the story.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
And taught me. TikTok taught me.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
They actually are a cute couple in her and him
and s Jap In my opinion, just because I like
when brunettes.
Speaker 5 (17:29):
Get during the show.
Speaker 6 (17:31):
Yeah, I feel like in the movie, there was a
scene where Carrie first got left at the altar and
when she saw Big and she beat him with the
flowers in the street, and Charlotte came up and was like, no, no,
And you know that just came from a real place.
You only talk to your man like that, Like she
(17:52):
was so ready for it. I feel like it just
came from like that. That was passion.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
That's the movie that made me aspire to have That
scene in particular was what made me aspire to have
strong women in my corner because I'm like, I want
my friends to be so upset if a man breaks
my heart that they do exactly what those girls did
for carry because that's love right there.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I love that scene.
Speaker 6 (18:15):
You ain't never see Charlotte give that energy except in
that scene in that movie.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
That scene always makes me cry.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
I tear up.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
But it's hard because you know your friend eventually is
going to go back, and so how do you feel
when you haven't forgiven the man for doing that to
your friend, but your friend forgives him.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
So I've been there.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
Yeah, that's when you got to realize people are Experience
is not possessions. You can't control anybody or what everybody
else does. It's just your job to love and support them,
not to minimize the hurt that comes from it. Yeah, Like,
I've definitely been there when you want something better for
somebody and then they just in your mind are not
making decisions that are the best decisions for them, So
you feel for that, And yeah, it takes a practice
(18:57):
and a conscious effort to separate your emotions from just
accepting that you have no control over it, right, Yeah, that's.
Speaker 7 (19:03):
True in real life.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
I wouldn't be Harry's friend after the second time she
gets with mister Big honestly, and be.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Like, you do you figure it out that I.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Don't have time for this. I don't have time for this.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I do.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
I do feel as though it's more of a young
girl thing to deal with friends who are making bad decisions,
because honestly, sometimes your bad decisions do roll over and
effect my life, my mental health, happiness, my mental peace,
my mental health. And at this age, I don't have
time for you. And I mean doing things that I
(19:42):
just know better. You know, I know better than to
do that, And if you're still doing them, then I
gotta love you from a distances, don't come over here.
Speaker 6 (19:52):
I feel like I had a friend who dated a
guy that I didn't agree with, and I recognize very
quickly that she would choose that guy over me. Learn
to hold my tongue, to completely separate myself like it
has nothing to do with me. If you happy, I'm
happy a part of me. I don't want to say
I feel like a fake friend, but I did feel
like it wasn't keeping it one hundred percent real. One
(20:12):
percent real is telling you exactly how I feel about
this dude. And actually I found windows of opportunity to
do that as well. But I just felt good that
I found that space to just let her live her
life and let that that process play out the way
it was going to play out, and still maintain that
friendship with her. Yeah, we're still friends to this day.
She's no longer with that dude, but she was with him,
(20:34):
you know, for a good fifteen years of our friendship.
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Goddamn.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
A lot of the times women will choose their dude
over you because you're not giving them orgasms, not even
just orgasms.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Like attention, gifts, cuddling comfort. There's so much more than that.
Speaker 6 (20:51):
I think there's so much more that that, But that
attention from someone you have those feelings for is different
than that same attention.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Now it's just quick question.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Do you think that that's more of a male centered
woman who feels like it's more valuable coming from a man,
Because there are women today that aren't male centered, where
it's like I appreciate that from anybody, like I don't
need it from a man. But there are women who
are male center where it's like, oh, I'm gonna I
was actually watching social media video today take back and
they were saying that my friend left me in Miami
to go hook up with a guy, and then my
(21:20):
friend left me in Mexico to go hook up with
a guy, and it's just.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Like, ooh, that's that's not okay, you know.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
So I think there are women who who value friendship
just as much as they value romantic relationships. Yeah, I mean,
I think that the attention and feelings you get from
a relationship is unmatched.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
It's not something you're going to get from friendship.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
Like how you handle and navigate is you know, varies
from person to person. But I think those are two
different feelings that they energies that they ignite within you.
So I just I don't think they're really comparable.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Yeah, but I friendships are also relationships, and if you're not,
I guess valuing my relationship with you. But again, you know,
keeping in mind that your friend's relationship with her men
is also important and so boundaries and you know, different dynamics.
But if you're putting your men a shitty man before me,
(22:14):
or you're not valuing my time and our relationship, then
you know, just I would let you be.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Yeah, you do you.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
I also did want to share earlier when I said
that I would I wouldn't be friends with Carrie because
not only is she does she keep going back to
mister Big, but she's also very bitchy when her friends
try to give her advice, and you know they're there
for her. And not only are you getting back with
(22:43):
mister Big, but you get mad at us for telling
you that you're doing a big mistake type of thing.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
And as somebody would kind of relate to Carrie in
that way, like I don't like being told what to do.
I don't I don't respond well to it, Like I
don't care how you feel about things like my life
to live and I gotta do what I gotta do,
and if you lose people in that process, then that's
all fair. I do think people have to choose themselves
because at the end of the day, you're who you're
(23:10):
born with, You're who you're gonna die with. So I
think you have the right to be like, you know,
I can't do that. But at the same time, Karen
has the right to be like, this is the decision
I'm going to make for me because she didn't end
up marrying dude, you know, so who are you to say,
I like, you don't know you're from You're the outside
looking in, Like you don't know what we have you nearly.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
But I go back to that one episode where she
keeps talking about the breakup and they're like, you need
to we can't do this anymore, and she's like they,
you know, they recommend for her to go to therapy,
and she's like, no, I have you, No, bitch, go
to therapy because we don't want to hear about mister
Big anymore.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
I think unless she doesn't.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Take, you know, accountability for her actions, I think what's.
Speaker 6 (23:46):
Beautiful about that experience on the show is that they
work through as friends yeah, I think that both were right.
It's like yes and type energy, Like, you have the
right to vent about what your experience about your man
to the people that you feel closest with, and they
have the right to set boundaries that experience and they
don't want to hear anymore. So I think it's kind
of like one of those Situs situations where both are right.
I do lean more towards the girlfriends because Carrie was
(24:08):
annoying as hell the whole six seasons, you know.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
But in season two, you know, they didn't. They were
complaining about her moving too fast when she was trying
to date, you know, move on past, mister Big. So
it's just like you don't want her to date, what
do you want her to be stuck on? Mister big?
Is it too soon for her to start dating someone else?
And so it's just like, damned if you do, Damn
if you know. I can't wait to get in some
more of that was I actually remember.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I had an experience where I was in a really
awful relationship and I had one friend who cut me
off because, in her defense, my boyfriend at the time
was apparently disrespectful to her as well, where I.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
Felt like mister big.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Wasn't that everything that he caused was just to carry personally,
And she kind of brought it to her friends and
one friend that rode with me through it. And I
respect both perspectives, like my friend who left and then
came back, they're left to and bye bitch. But was
she like I respect the fact that you know you
you you did what you had to do because I
(25:05):
was making bad decisions in that moment. But I also
felt like I was never going to forget that you
left me when I wasn't making good decisions, Like I
don't consider you. You're not going to be there for
me through the good, the bad, the ugly. And I
think that's genuine friendship, Like I have friends that really
do do that and that will do that, So it's
not like something that's unrealistic to ask. But I can't
be mad at you for protecting your peace.
Speaker 5 (25:26):
At the same time, but if so, if she came
back to you, go fuck her.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Fuck her.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
How old were you?
Speaker 7 (25:33):
How old were you?
Speaker 4 (25:34):
I was, well, I was with him from the time
I was eighteen to twenty five.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Okay, you were a young woman learning lessons at Carrie
is well into her thirties, forties. You, I feel like
you also have to take into account of the age. Fine,
you know, I feel like I did that with my
friends through my nineteen, you know, teens, twenties, Like I've
been there for my friends who've been in relationships. But
(25:57):
right now at almost thirty seven, and fuck, no, I'm sorry, No, I.
Speaker 6 (26:04):
Like I'm and you know this could be just my
relationships with identified friendships, Like I have gotten to a
point where it's like, that's your business. Like I can't
control my friendships. I can't want them to do what
I want them to do. I can't let want them
to think the way I think. So I've gotten to
a point of complete like separation, Like the friend dimentioned
earlier who dated that dude, it was so like releasing
(26:25):
to be like that is your business. Like when I
hear a rumor, it's just a rumor. It has zero
to do with me, Like I lost all passion because
I knew telling her the rumor it wasn't going to
make a difference.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Like, no, that's true. I did have a friend in
my in my thirties. I did not like her relationship.
I did not like the decision she was making and
our friendship was able to prosper outside of that because
it's like, just don't talk to me about that aspect
of your life. Yeah, because I have nothing nice to
say about it. And she also like she could tell
(26:58):
by my energy that like I'm not I'm looking at
you like you you crazy, because it's you crazy, like
the fuck is you're dealing with. So I do agree,
but I'm a person that values friendship so highly that
I'm able to come part like I know that who
you're dating isn't your entire being, and if you make
it that then that's a whole different story. But we
could talk career, we could talk lunch, we could talk fashion,
(27:19):
we could talk whatever. We could talk whatever you want
to talk. But the second you bring up that, man,
now it's awkward because I'm just staring at you.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
You know, I don't shut up. So I's like, ooh.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
And the last rumor Kim Cantrell and that s jpity
enemies sworn enemies. They did not get along, which is
why Kimrell aka Samantha and Carrie, Samantha is not in
and just like that, she refused to come back. She
says Carrie is a certified mean girl. They never got along.
Rumor has it they didn't like each other because Sarah
(27:52):
Jessica Parker was also executive producer of Sex and the
City and got a higher paycheck than the rest of
the girl. She was only the only one on the
intro she got paid more money, and Kim Kachrall was like,
I am the sex of Sex and the City. I
deserve to have more money too. I can kind of
see both sides of the argument. I respect her stance.
(28:13):
I feel like when it comes to work though, it
just kind of is what it is, especially when it
comes to like actors and main characters supporting actresses, whatever
the case might be. So I feel like you signed
on for this role, your role was your role. If
you're not an executive producer, if you don't have, say,
beyond being the actress, you have to kind of play
your position. So I feel like I'm more team Carrie
in that regard, you know, with acknowledging that I'm not
(28:34):
behind the scenes and don't know what they were going
through in the day to day, like because I can't
stay at a mean girl or a bully or someone
who leans too much in their power. But I don't
know if I have any definitive evidence, you know, like
we have a poblaque lively with.
Speaker 7 (28:47):
Regard to can't carries.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I can't say that that's the truth.
Speaker 6 (28:51):
I can acknowledge that those are some bomb ass actresses,
because there's not one instance on the show or the
movies where you can where I can say like, oh,
they got a with each other, Like I feel like
they are friends in real life. So it's so sad
to hear that because I love them to his friends.
The only reason I'm a little bit torn is just
because I feel everybody knows that Friends is my second
(29:13):
favorite show outside of Sex and the City. Those people
when they tried to offer Ross more money, who was
the hot guy at that time?
Speaker 4 (29:19):
In season one?
Speaker 3 (29:21):
He got all the actors together and they went into
the studio with the producers together, like we need to
all make the same amount of money. That's it, that's all,
or the show's done. So they all were making a
million dollars per episode. Nobody was seen as better than
the other. And I just think that if the show
is successful because of everybody, and you know, there's more
than enough money to go around, why not fight for
that other person. So that's why I can kind of
(29:42):
see Kim Control's perspective. However, if you are a producer
on top of an actress, that's more work.
Speaker 7 (29:51):
Yeah, as a producer, Yeah, that's that's work.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
You know.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
I like that point, Kayla, because you know I've heard
you know you guys mention girls girl. Right. Yes, fine,
if she had an added credit where she's an executive producer,
I understand the extra pay. But at the end of
the day, the show revolved around the four girls equally, right,
So I feel like it maybe the first season Carrie
(30:18):
was supposed to be the main character, but you know,
second season, especially how the show is growing, and like
the fans like, I feel like, if Sarah wanted to
increase the pay for everyone, or if they would have
really done it, there.
Speaker 7 (30:35):
Was some sort of camaraderie amongst them they could have.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
I don't disagree with that.
Speaker 6 (30:41):
I do feel like Carrie was like the narrator, she
was the writer, so there was something about her being
the main character, you know, like the Beyonce of Destiny
Chap Yeah, you gotta acknowledge that.
Speaker 5 (30:50):
And we don't know all the details, like what if
they all pitched in for a different ideas throughout the show,
but they just didn't get the credit on paper, so
it looks like they probably didn't produce, but through giving
Carrie ideas like oh maybe you should add this or
at that, you know, so adding more details, they probably
felt more entitled to if she used her ideas. You know.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
Yeah, I feel like that's all we need more evidence,
And luckily they came out in the nineties before there
was a TikTok or Facebook or Instagram where all their
shit will be blested on mainstream, so we really don't
know what went on behind the scenes, like what make
Carrie to be so entitled to be the main character
versus not. You know, I would like to know more
about what happened between Samantha and Carry. I can't say
(31:31):
I've read research on what exactly went down between them,
but definitely always knew they didn't get along for whatever
reason and definitely could not tell be so watching it
at all.
Speaker 7 (31:42):
But I've seen a.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Clip where Samantha is accepting an award for Sex and
the City and she's thinking everyone generally like the girls
with her, So I feel like something must have happened
in the middle of the show. I don't think it
began with them not being friends.
Speaker 6 (32:03):
Yeah, maybe they had an interaction behind the scenes, and
it's like, I really don't fuck with her at all
at all. I could accept that she does this, that,
and the third, but because she's such a bitch, I'm
not like, who knows, you know? But yeah, I mean,
at the end of the day, coworkers aren't friends a
lot of the times, Like you are my co worker.
I am here to get this job done and then
get the hell away from you and this place.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
So unfortunately, show business is just a different ballgame where
you got to act a certain way. I mean, I
guess you do have to do that in everyday corporate too,
to an extent, but that's just what it was. They
were strictly coworkers. Friendship wasn't a thing. We just have
to play best friends when the cameras are rolling after
the camera stop fuck you.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
But you know, it seems like they're really like besties
Miranda and Charlotte till this day.
Speaker 7 (32:48):
Really Oh yeah, you see say.
Speaker 6 (32:50):
Because we know Charlotte started a podcast talking about what
are you or? Charlotte and Miranda have done episodes together
based on that so they're still in touch.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
And I don't know if you.
Speaker 6 (33:01):
Guys knew Miranda and Carrie like knew each other the longest,
Like they actually acted on a project together when they
were like fourteen. There's a picture of them as teenage
girls out there like at Google Babowl. Miranda was blonde.
But they knew each other since they were like little girls,
like they they acted in theater together.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
Way they go way back. Well the business, small business,
small world. But that was our votus episode Things you
Never Knew about Sex and the City and we'll be
back for season two, episode one, So thank you for
kicking it with us. Make sure you joined the conversation
and follow us at Sex in the City of Angels
and make sure you follow me at the Kayla Austin at.
Speaker 6 (33:37):
Yogi Undersquirrel, Elia at Dana at norm slowahick an you.
Speaker 4 (33:43):
And we'll see you next time.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
Bye.
This is Sex in the City of Angels podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
Welcome back to Sex in the City of angel We
just wrapped up season one episodes one through.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Twelve and our bonus episode with the man himself, John Sally.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
So much fun this season has been.
Speaker 5 (00:32):
It was so much fun, honestly, like he was real
and everything that I like from season one that I shared,
I'm like, see a grown ass man gets it, you know,
these young boys. We talked about the fifty to fifty.
We talked about what you know what that culture and
sex and the city, how that influenced women and how
(00:55):
it affects us today. So it's like we're just learning
so many things in unline, I need so many things.
So it was really good, you know, to touch on that.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I agree.
Speaker 6 (01:04):
There were definitely some things that he said that made
me think like, like, yeah, it's more of a game
and more of a It made me feel like you
can't take things so seriously, like take dating so seriously.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
You know, it's just about having fun, being in the moment.
That's what I got from his interview.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Personally, my favorite part was the fact when or the
part where we asked him about the rules and he
discarded them.
Speaker 7 (01:30):
He's like, what rules? Who made those up?
Speaker 5 (01:32):
Damn?
Speaker 2 (01:32):
But I believe so much in the rules that was.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
And you know what, as someone who has rebuked these rules,
I love them.
Speaker 7 (01:40):
I appreciate them.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
It made me live a little bit more freely.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
I made some decisions after our interview with John Sally,
and I was like, you know what, I don't care
because the rules don't matter.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
We love you girl.
Speaker 7 (01:55):
We got to make our own rules.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
That's the point we are in Deep Strong Women in
twenty twenty five. We can make our own rules and.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Carry and do.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
But I did love getting to know Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte,
and Miranda on a different level. Although I've watched this
show time and time and time again, doing it from
the podcast perspective just really gave me more insight to
our girls and their personalities. And I feel like we
should get more insight into our girls. So this episode
(02:29):
is things you didn't know about Sex and the City.
Did you guys know that Carrie's tutu only cost five
dollars that she wears in the classic intro They found
it in a bargain bin five dollars.
Speaker 5 (02:44):
Mine costs twenty nine ninety nine on Amazon.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Say, well, we did our little event. We all wore
our carry tou two's and they were much more than.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Five dollars twenty nine ninety nine, I paid thirteen bucks
more than five dollars.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Definitely matter five dollars.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Yeah, and now when is it the car sitting in
the trunk?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Ya?
Speaker 4 (03:02):
I don't know if I have a word again?
Speaker 6 (03:03):
Did you know that Carrie was originally meant to be
a brunette but producers changed their minds just twenty four
hours before the pilot episode was shot. I had no idea.
I can't even imagine carry a brunette.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
She looks so.
Speaker 5 (03:16):
Good with blonde.
Speaker 7 (03:17):
Yeah, it suits her so good, very well.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
I love her blonde curly yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:22):
Okay, Well, did you know that Cynthia Nixon ak Miranda
is naturally blonde?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I actually saw her in a movie where she was
a blonde, so I had a feeling. Well, I didn't
know she was naturally blonde, but I knew that she
wasn't a redhead.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
She looks good for a red head, like she looks
like red girls with her. You look natural with red hair.
Speaker 7 (03:42):
I am a natural?
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, thank you?
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Did you know Kim Cattrall had to be strongly persuaded
to take the room. She turned it down twice.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
What I why I can't imagine the show without Samantha.
She when she did accept it, she fully committed to
that character.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Do you think that she didn't like Sarah Justic Parker
way before the show started.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (04:07):
Maybe she's a difficult personality, Like I'm not surprised at
this fact because she didn't come back for Sex and
the City or for In just like that. And I
feel like there was controversy over her joining the movies,
Like I feel like she'd been over this role even before.
So now we just find out she was over this
role even before she got it.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
It also takes a certain personality to play that role.
She had so much sex. We saw her body so
many times. I could close my eyes and envision it
clearly right now, you know, So that that takes that
takes a lot of go and ask to be like, yeah,
I'll take I'll take that role, you know.
Speaker 5 (04:40):
Or maybe they didn't even think that it would go
or blow up as big as it did. You know,
she probably read the script like nah, you know.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Right, right right, But maybe it was because there was
so much sex involved that she was like, maybe I
shouldn't knew this because she was also well into her
what forties?
Speaker 4 (04:57):
Yeah, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Did you know?
Speaker 3 (05:01):
After the episode where Carrie and Miranda ate the cupcakes
for Magnolia's Bakery aired, the real life New York location
became so popular they had to hire a bouncer. Busloads
of tourists were taken to the cupcakes store every day,
resulting in skyrocketing rents for the neighboring stores.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Did they go to the bakery in season one?
Speaker 4 (05:18):
I don't think so. I don't think they did that.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
No, that wasn't a season one, but I am hearing
a lot of the things are really popular. In fact,
this just came out in the news this week where
the guy who lives in Carrie Bradshaw's apartment because they
used a real life Brownstone in New York City, yelled,
this isn't Carrie's house, my house. People can go in
there to take pictures where it's like she doesn't live here.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Bro.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
So I'm sure every restaurant or a place they had
on that show blew up afterwards.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
There's actually a Magnolia Bakery in La Have you guys?
Ever been.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Let's bring a bustload of people and go.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
You can go record over there, yeah and make it popular.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
Did you know Willie Garson, who played Stanford, was actually
set up on a blind date with Sarah Jessica Parker
before the show began, and they remained great friends.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I thought he was gay in real life.
Speaker 5 (06:07):
Yeah, he's not gay.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
He's gay.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
He's a king. He gets women, and I bet it's
like dating is hard for him because if he's not gay.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Well, no, he's Stanford from Sex and the City. People
love money. He probably has no problem.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
I had no problem. I thought this was real life.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
No, yeah, well he it is real life. But I'm
saying he.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Had money before.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Well, yeah, he was in a lot of stuff, Stanford.
I see him all the time as an actor. He
did an episode of Friends.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
But Friends was after Sex and the City or before
same time. Oh yeah, okay, So did you know that
none of the four women ever wore the same thing
twice throughout the entire series?
Speaker 6 (06:46):
That makes sense, No, I don't think Gary wore a
fur jacket in a couple episodes are jacket jacket I'm
not one sure, but.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Thanks, Yeah, it looks like it.
Speaker 7 (06:57):
Yeah, but a jack.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
It's a jacket, an outfits and outfit, so maybe.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
That's the but it says never were the same thing twice.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
What about shoes?
Speaker 4 (07:06):
We got a demunk it maybe maybe it's not true shoes.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Did you know Victoria Beckham was offered a cameo role
in the first Sex in the City movie but had
to knock it back because she was on tour rehearsals
for The Spice Girls.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Thank god she turned it down because I can't live
without the Spice Girls.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Did you know Matthew McConaughey almost didn't get his cameo
role in the episode Escape from New York where they
came to the City of Angels, But it was originally
written for Alec Baldwin, who turned it down, So this
almost didn't happen. Thank god, Thank god. Matthew McConaughey has
so much louder than than Oh yeah.
Speaker 6 (07:46):
Did you know that Aiden's dog was so scared of
him that they had to find him.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
A new dog.
Speaker 7 (07:53):
That's a red flag.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
Well, the new dog liked him.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
I actually heard that more often than not were actors
one series with animals. The animals make it so much
more complicated to do a scene, or like they are
kind of hard to work with at times.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
Ooh, this one's good. Did you know season five only
had eight episodes because Sarah Jessica Parker was pregnant.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
I actually didn't know that eight. Yeah, season five is
eight episode? Yeah, well episode?
Speaker 7 (08:21):
I ever noticed that The seasons.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
Are usually like, oh no, the first season was twelve,
but everything else I guess like twenties good.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Still, yeah, I thought it was more than eight.
Speaker 7 (08:29):
So they hide it. I never noticed it.
Speaker 6 (08:31):
But season six is like extra long too, like eighteen episodes. Yeah,
I don't know how many, but I feel like it's
like more than all the other seasons.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Like it is, it's like twenty something.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
I didn't even know she had kids.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Oh yeah, I heard a rumor that when Carrie sees
eight and again for the first time after she like
broke his heart and he's like on the corner with
his little baby Tait. They calls Tater because it's like
a little potato, and the baby gets so excited with
Sarah Esca Parker's coming because it was her baby.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
I heard that, what about just.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
A rumor it wasn't her baby, But that's what I
always heard.
Speaker 7 (09:09):
So I knew that she's gone.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
She's married to Spider Man.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Sorry to.
Speaker 7 (09:15):
Inspector Gadget Man.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
He never plays Inspector Gadget Matthews Buehler.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
That thought it was Matthew brought her.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
Yeah, that's him, Birds Bueler stay off and Inspector Gadget.
Speaker 6 (09:28):
I know him from that movie with Reese Wetherspoon when
she was like a student and he was like a teacher.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I forget the name of that movie though.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
Was it a Lifetime movie?
Speaker 7 (09:35):
Election?
Speaker 2 (09:37):
That's the only movie I know him.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Wait, Matthew Broderick never plays Spider Man. No, man, stop, it.
Speaker 7 (09:41):
Can't get up.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
I was saw right.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Did you know the final episode was shot on a
Wednesday and aired that Sunday.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
That business baby like it? Wow, yeah, that makes sense.
Matthew Broderick, Yeah, No, he was Spider Man. My bad.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
Oh.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
I'm like, oh, I bet he treats her.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
So good, leaving Mary forever.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
I think Hollywood marriage is if they last, then it's
a It's a golden thing. Did you know Carrie posed
ninety two questions to the audience throughout the entire series.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
There were some good questions. I love them. They get them.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
They helped us ask questions to John Sally, It's like,
is Managa being too cruel of a rule?
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Questions?
Speaker 6 (10:31):
But how I feel did you know that the episode
before Carrie moves to Paris is where she asked her
final question, is it time to stop questioning?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Damn?
Speaker 4 (10:43):
That's powerful deep, especially if she asks ninety two of them.
Speaker 6 (10:46):
John's as someone who leads guided meditations, I always say,
just allow what is to be.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Yeah, that's it. We don't got to attach a narrative.
You don't got to question it. So good question.
Speaker 5 (11:01):
So did you know that mister Big aka John Chris
Knoth was inspired by one of the author, Candace Bushnell's
ex boyfriends, former magazine executive Ron Galotti.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
No idea, I had no idea.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
So I feel like if the author, Candish Bushnell's ex
boyfriend's former magazine executive Ron Glotti, was written in such
a like a way where you like, look up and
aspire to have this man, then Candish Bushnell, she might
have a crush on Ron Glotti and her ex boyfriend
if they were together at the time, has the right
(11:40):
to question her about that? Because what the heck is
that about? You wrote this whole character about Ron, not Ron,
That's how I feel.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
But maybe because he was so such a red flag
that she was like, this is the perfect character to
really build a whole show about, you know.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Yeah, yeah, just saying, let mean as a red flag
in the nineties in the moment, I just know, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
But he probably took her through a whole emotional roller
coaster like he did Carry.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
So that's artistic expression.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
That's what Taylerswift always does, like inspired the songs based
on some X that did some bullshit.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
So yeah, I.
Speaker 7 (12:16):
Need to look up run Galandi.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, never heard of him, Probably holled.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Did he know that? In twenty twelve the Real Life
Apartment were the exterior shots of Carrie's Stuper shot sod
for nine point six five million dollars.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Wow, Yeah, I actually did hear something like that before.
I had a good friend that lived in New York
and she actually took a picture on Carry Bradshaw Stoop
like years years back, and she did say it was
like on sell for like ten million dollars or something
like that.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
So yeah, knew that one.
Speaker 7 (12:49):
If you had the money, would you buy it?
Speaker 6 (12:51):
I got to see the inside and the inside of
what Carrie had now, damn sure not ten million dollars
for a one bedroom without a door.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
And then on top of that, like you probably got
mad fans and tourists taking pictures on your stoop all
the time.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
I like my piece.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
I am seventy five years old and a man on
the inside. Leave me alone, get off my stoop. So
I can't I can't buy it. You looked at round Galotti.
Is he a hottyman?
Speaker 7 (13:18):
Ooh, it's a no for me, dude, Thank you.
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Candace loved him, obviously by based off the people she hired.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
He how does even I don't even know how Candace
looks as a matter of fact.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
True, that's true. Let's google her next.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Did you know that mister BIG's wife, Natasha always wore white.
This was to convey her vanilla personality. I don't think
Natasha was vanilla personally. The way she told carry off
at that dinner and that Christian Dior dress that Carrie
was wearing.
Speaker 4 (13:53):
I don't think a vanilla woman would do that.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
Okay, So what is vanilla? What's the definition of vanilla
to you?
Speaker 3 (13:59):
I think pretty boring, basic cut and dry, cookie cutter
woman That doesn't really have fun.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Yeah, Vanilla's not a good thing.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
So if you would like what flavor would you like
to be described as like.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
Razzle, dazzle, Vanilla with rainbow sprinkles, shocked in the season,
hot budge and a cherry on top, you can be basic.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Vanilla is basic.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
I took Vanilla personality as you know, just referencing, referencing
her age and the way she looks so young, And
that's the way I took it.
Speaker 6 (14:39):
Nah, Vanilla ain't good and what and what book is
vanilla a good thing?
Speaker 1 (14:43):
No?
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Yeah, vanilla sex is lame. Vanilla personalities are lame. Vanilla's
lame unless you add some rainbow sprinkles.
Speaker 6 (14:50):
Did you know the book Love Letters of Great Men,
which Carrie borrows from the library and the first film
didn't exist, but the demand was so high that it
was actually published.
Speaker 4 (15:02):
Oh I love that.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
That is power?
Speaker 4 (15:05):
Power is power?
Speaker 6 (15:07):
Is that the line where they were like ever mine, ever,
thine ever ours?
Speaker 2 (15:12):
I would assume.
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Yeah, we use that on our trivia night. Yes, that
will have more in the future. We are getting dms
asking when's the next event?
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Really?
Speaker 3 (15:21):
Yeah, you want to know and follow us at Sex
and the City of angels because our next event is
coming it.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
Woo okay, Well, did you know that when Trey and
Charlotte got engaged at Tiffany's it was fake? It was
a fake store window. Did you know that? Because Tiffany's
wouldn't allow the crew inside for security purposes and make
sure to send an employee to approve the fake window
before it was shot.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
That's that's a little extra.
Speaker 7 (15:46):
Don't you think you have insurnds? Don't you?
Speaker 3 (15:49):
And then it's like if you if you don't want
them recording there, then don't be all in there.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Oh, let me see if the fake is good enough
for us.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Let us use your real location or don't JK, tiff
He's feel free to send me free though.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Did you know the boy who plays Brady in the
first movie is the same baby who played Brady in
the show.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
Not Surprised looks just like good way to keep it consistent.
I only think about him in just like that having
sex with his girl. Yeah extra, Oh my god, that
show is so hard to watch.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
I was imagining that kid. So is that kid the
same baby?
Speaker 4 (16:22):
I think the movie?
Speaker 6 (16:24):
That's when him Steve Miranda they were all out to
dinner and he was like, I gotta go to the bathroom.
Remember Miranda, Magda, Steve and Brady were all out to dinner.
It's when Steve and Miranda you can see the tension
in their relationship. She has to get home and do
a brief. He's like, let the sweet nanny finish her dinner.
(16:46):
And Brady's in that scene, he's still a kid. He's
like a five year old kid.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Was Margan pizza out the trash?
Speaker 1 (16:51):
No?
Speaker 6 (16:51):
That was that was Steve's mom that had Yeah, but
there was a there was a scene in the movie
where they were all out, and that's when you knew
Miranda and Steve had tension because Miranda was like so
serious about everything and Steve is like, let's just chill,
like you got whipped on your lip.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Yeah, And just a couple of other rumors or things
that you didn't know. Did you know Charlotte and mister
Big dated in real life?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
I heard it. I saw a picture, but I don't
know the story.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
And taught me. TikTok taught me.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
They actually are a cute couple in her and him
and s Jap In my opinion, just because I like
when brunettes.
Speaker 5 (17:29):
Get during the show.
Speaker 6 (17:31):
Yeah, I feel like in the movie, there was a
scene where Carrie first got left at the altar and
when she saw Big and she beat him with the
flowers in the street, and Charlotte came up and was like, no, no,
And you know that just came from a real place.
You only talk to your man like that, Like she
(17:52):
was so ready for it. I feel like it just
came from like that. That was passion.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
That's the movie that made me aspire to have That
scene in particular was what made me aspire to have
strong women in my corner because I'm like, I want
my friends to be so upset if a man breaks
my heart that they do exactly what those girls did
for carry because that's love right there.
Speaker 2 (18:13):
I love that scene.
Speaker 6 (18:15):
You ain't never see Charlotte give that energy except in
that scene in that movie.
Speaker 7 (18:19):
That scene always makes me cry.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
I tear up.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
But it's hard because you know your friend eventually is
going to go back, and so how do you feel
when you haven't forgiven the man for doing that to
your friend, but your friend forgives him.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
So I've been there.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
Yeah, that's when you got to realize people are Experience
is not possessions. You can't control anybody or what everybody
else does. It's just your job to love and support them,
not to minimize the hurt that comes from it. Yeah, Like,
I've definitely been there when you want something better for
somebody and then they just in your mind are not
making decisions that are the best decisions for them, So
you feel for that, And yeah, it takes a practice
(18:57):
and a conscious effort to separate your emotions from just
accepting that you have no control over it, right, Yeah, that's.
Speaker 7 (19:03):
True in real life.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
I wouldn't be Harry's friend after the second time she
gets with mister Big honestly, and be.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Like, you do you figure it out that I.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Don't have time for this. I don't have time for this.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I do.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
I do feel as though it's more of a young
girl thing to deal with friends who are making bad decisions,
because honestly, sometimes your bad decisions do roll over and
effect my life, my mental health, happiness, my mental peace,
my mental health. And at this age, I don't have
time for you. And I mean doing things that I
(19:42):
just know better. You know, I know better than to
do that, And if you're still doing them, then I
gotta love you from a distances, don't come over here.
Speaker 6 (19:52):
I feel like I had a friend who dated a
guy that I didn't agree with, and I recognize very
quickly that she would choose that guy over me. Learn
to hold my tongue, to completely separate myself like it
has nothing to do with me. If you happy, I'm
happy a part of me. I don't want to say
I feel like a fake friend, but I did feel
like it wasn't keeping it one hundred percent real. One
(20:12):
percent real is telling you exactly how I feel about
this dude. And actually I found windows of opportunity to
do that as well. But I just felt good that
I found that space to just let her live her
life and let that that process play out the way
it was going to play out, and still maintain that
friendship with her. Yeah, we're still friends to this day.
She's no longer with that dude, but she was with him,
(20:34):
you know, for a good fifteen years of our friendship.
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Goddamn.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
A lot of the times women will choose their dude
over you because you're not giving them orgasms, not even
just orgasms.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Like attention, gifts, cuddling comfort. There's so much more than that.
Speaker 6 (20:51):
I think there's so much more that that, But that
attention from someone you have those feelings for is different
than that same attention.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Now it's just quick question.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Do you think that that's more of a male centered
woman who feels like it's more valuable coming from a man,
Because there are women today that aren't male centered, where
it's like I appreciate that from anybody, like I don't
need it from a man. But there are women who
are male center where it's like, oh, I'm gonna I
was actually watching social media video today take back and
they were saying that my friend left me in Miami
to go hook up with a guy, and then my
(21:20):
friend left me in Mexico to go hook up with
a guy, and it's just.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
Like, ooh, that's that's not okay, you know.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
So I think there are women who who value friendship
just as much as they value romantic relationships. Yeah, I mean,
I think that the attention and feelings you get from
a relationship is unmatched.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
It's not something you're going to get from friendship.
Speaker 6 (21:39):
Like how you handle and navigate is you know, varies
from person to person. But I think those are two
different feelings that they energies that they ignite within you.
So I just I don't think they're really comparable.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Yeah, but I friendships are also relationships, and if you're not,
I guess valuing my relationship with you. But again, you know,
keeping in mind that your friend's relationship with her men
is also important and so boundaries and you know, different dynamics.
But if you're putting your men a shitty man before me,
(22:14):
or you're not valuing my time and our relationship, then
you know, just I would let you be.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Yeah, you do you.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
I also did want to share earlier when I said
that I would I wouldn't be friends with Carrie because
not only is she does she keep going back to
mister Big, but she's also very bitchy when her friends
try to give her advice, and you know they're there
for her. And not only are you getting back with
(22:43):
mister Big, but you get mad at us for telling
you that you're doing a big mistake type of thing.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
And as somebody would kind of relate to Carrie in
that way, like I don't like being told what to do.
I don't I don't respond well to it, Like I
don't care how you feel about things like my life
to live and I gotta do what I gotta do,
and if you lose people in that process, then that's
all fair. I do think people have to choose themselves
because at the end of the day, you're who you're
(23:10):
born with, You're who you're gonna die with. So I
think you have the right to be like, you know,
I can't do that. But at the same time, Karen
has the right to be like, this is the decision
I'm going to make for me because she didn't end
up marrying dude, you know, so who are you to say,
I like, you don't know you're from You're the outside
looking in, Like you don't know what we have you nearly.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
But I go back to that one episode where she
keeps talking about the breakup and they're like, you need
to we can't do this anymore, and she's like they,
you know, they recommend for her to go to therapy,
and she's like, no, I have you, No, bitch, go
to therapy because we don't want to hear about mister
Big anymore.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
I think unless she doesn't.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Take, you know, accountability for her actions, I think what's.
Speaker 6 (23:46):
Beautiful about that experience on the show is that they
work through as friends yeah, I think that both were right.
It's like yes and type energy, Like, you have the
right to vent about what your experience about your man
to the people that you feel closest with, and they
have the right to set boundaries that experience and they
don't want to hear anymore. So I think it's kind
of like one of those Situs situations where both are right.
I do lean more towards the girlfriends because Carrie was
(24:08):
annoying as hell the whole six seasons, you know.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
But in season two, you know, they didn't. They were
complaining about her moving too fast when she was trying
to date, you know, move on past, mister Big. So
it's just like you don't want her to date, what
do you want her to be stuck on? Mister big?
Is it too soon for her to start dating someone else?
And so it's just like, damned if you do, Damn
if you know. I can't wait to get in some
more of that was I actually remember.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I had an experience where I was in a really
awful relationship and I had one friend who cut me
off because, in her defense, my boyfriend at the time
was apparently disrespectful to her as well, where I.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
Felt like mister big.
Speaker 3 (24:45):
Wasn't that everything that he caused was just to carry personally,
And she kind of brought it to her friends and
one friend that rode with me through it. And I
respect both perspectives, like my friend who left and then
came back, they're left to and bye bitch. But was
she like I respect the fact that you know you
you you did what you had to do because I
(25:05):
was making bad decisions in that moment. But I also
felt like I was never going to forget that you
left me when I wasn't making good decisions, Like I
don't consider you. You're not going to be there for
me through the good, the bad, the ugly. And I
think that's genuine friendship, Like I have friends that really
do do that and that will do that, So it's
not like something that's unrealistic to ask. But I can't
be mad at you for protecting your peace.
Speaker 5 (25:26):
At the same time, but if so, if she came
back to you, go fuck her.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
Fuck her.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
How old were you?
Speaker 7 (25:33):
How old were you?
Speaker 4 (25:34):
I was, well, I was with him from the time
I was eighteen to twenty five.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Okay, you were a young woman learning lessons at Carrie
is well into her thirties, forties. You, I feel like
you also have to take into account of the age. Fine,
you know, I feel like I did that with my
friends through my nineteen, you know, teens, twenties, Like I've
been there for my friends who've been in relationships. But
(25:57):
right now at almost thirty seven, and fuck, no, I'm sorry, No, I.
Speaker 6 (26:04):
Like I'm and you know this could be just my
relationships with identified friendships, Like I have gotten to a
point where it's like, that's your business. Like I can't
control my friendships. I can't want them to do what
I want them to do. I can't let want them
to think the way I think. So I've gotten to
a point of complete like separation, Like the friend dimentioned
earlier who dated that dude, it was so like releasing
(26:25):
to be like that is your business. Like when I
hear a rumor, it's just a rumor. It has zero
to do with me, Like I lost all passion because
I knew telling her the rumor it wasn't going to
make a difference.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Like, no, that's true. I did have a friend in
my in my thirties. I did not like her relationship.
I did not like the decision she was making and
our friendship was able to prosper outside of that because
it's like, just don't talk to me about that aspect
of your life. Yeah, because I have nothing nice to
say about it. And she also like she could tell
(26:58):
by my energy that like I'm not I'm looking at
you like you you crazy, because it's you crazy, like
the fuck is you're dealing with. So I do agree,
but I'm a person that values friendship so highly that
I'm able to come part like I know that who
you're dating isn't your entire being, and if you make
it that then that's a whole different story. But we
could talk career, we could talk lunch, we could talk fashion,
(27:19):
we could talk whatever. We could talk whatever you want
to talk. But the second you bring up that, man,
now it's awkward because I'm just staring at you.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
You know, I don't shut up. So I's like, ooh.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
And the last rumor Kim Cantrell and that s jpity
enemies sworn enemies. They did not get along, which is
why Kimrell aka Samantha and Carrie, Samantha is not in
and just like that, she refused to come back. She
says Carrie is a certified mean girl. They never got along.
Rumor has it they didn't like each other because Sarah
(27:52):
Jessica Parker was also executive producer of Sex and the
City and got a higher paycheck than the rest of
the girl. She was only the only one on the
intro she got paid more money, and Kim Kachrall was like,
I am the sex of Sex and the City. I
deserve to have more money too. I can kind of
see both sides of the argument. I respect her stance.
(28:13):
I feel like when it comes to work though, it
just kind of is what it is, especially when it
comes to like actors and main characters supporting actresses, whatever
the case might be. So I feel like you signed
on for this role, your role was your role. If
you're not an executive producer, if you don't have, say,
beyond being the actress, you have to kind of play
your position. So I feel like I'm more team Carrie
in that regard, you know, with acknowledging that I'm not
(28:34):
behind the scenes and don't know what they were going
through in the day to day, like because I can't
stay at a mean girl or a bully or someone
who leans too much in their power. But I don't
know if I have any definitive evidence, you know, like
we have a poblaque lively with.
Speaker 7 (28:47):
Regard to can't carries.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I can't say that that's the truth.
Speaker 6 (28:51):
I can acknowledge that those are some bomb ass actresses,
because there's not one instance on the show or the
movies where you can where I can say like, oh,
they got a with each other, Like I feel like
they are friends in real life. So it's so sad
to hear that because I love them to his friends.
The only reason I'm a little bit torn is just
because I feel everybody knows that Friends is my second
(29:13):
favorite show outside of Sex and the City. Those people
when they tried to offer Ross more money, who was
the hot guy at that time?
Speaker 4 (29:19):
In season one?
Speaker 3 (29:21):
He got all the actors together and they went into
the studio with the producers together, like we need to
all make the same amount of money. That's it, that's all,
or the show's done. So they all were making a
million dollars per episode. Nobody was seen as better than
the other. And I just think that if the show
is successful because of everybody, and you know, there's more
than enough money to go around, why not fight for
that other person. So that's why I can kind of
(29:42):
see Kim Control's perspective. However, if you are a producer
on top of an actress, that's more work.
Speaker 7 (29:51):
Yeah, as a producer, Yeah, that's that's work.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
You know.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
I like that point, Kayla, because you know I've heard
you know you guys mention girls girl. Right. Yes, fine,
if she had an added credit where she's an executive producer,
I understand the extra pay. But at the end of
the day, the show revolved around the four girls equally, right,
So I feel like it maybe the first season Carrie
(30:18):
was supposed to be the main character, but you know,
second season, especially how the show is growing, and like
the fans like, I feel like, if Sarah wanted to
increase the pay for everyone, or if they would have
really done it, there.
Speaker 7 (30:35):
Was some sort of camaraderie amongst them they could have.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
I don't disagree with that.
Speaker 6 (30:41):
I do feel like Carrie was like the narrator, she
was the writer, so there was something about her being
the main character, you know, like the Beyonce of Destiny
Chap Yeah, you gotta acknowledge that.
Speaker 5 (30:50):
And we don't know all the details, like what if
they all pitched in for a different ideas throughout the show,
but they just didn't get the credit on paper, so
it looks like they probably didn't produce, but through giving
Carrie ideas like oh maybe you should add this or
at that, you know, so adding more details, they probably
felt more entitled to if she used her ideas. You know.
Speaker 6 (31:10):
Yeah, I feel like that's all we need more evidence,
And luckily they came out in the nineties before there
was a TikTok or Facebook or Instagram where all their
shit will be blested on mainstream, so we really don't
know what went on behind the scenes, like what make
Carrie to be so entitled to be the main character
versus not. You know, I would like to know more
about what happened between Samantha and Carry. I can't say
(31:31):
I've read research on what exactly went down between them,
but definitely always knew they didn't get along for whatever
reason and definitely could not tell be so watching it
at all.
Speaker 7 (31:42):
But I've seen a.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Clip where Samantha is accepting an award for Sex and
the City and she's thinking everyone generally like the girls
with her, So I feel like something must have happened
in the middle of the show. I don't think it
began with them not being friends.
Speaker 6 (32:03):
Yeah, maybe they had an interaction behind the scenes, and
it's like, I really don't fuck with her at all
at all. I could accept that she does this, that,
and the third, but because she's such a bitch, I'm
not like, who knows, you know? But yeah, I mean,
at the end of the day, coworkers aren't friends a
lot of the times, Like you are my co worker.
I am here to get this job done and then
get the hell away from you and this place.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
So unfortunately, show business is just a different ballgame where
you got to act a certain way. I mean, I
guess you do have to do that in everyday corporate too,
to an extent, but that's just what it was. They
were strictly coworkers. Friendship wasn't a thing. We just have
to play best friends when the cameras are rolling after
the camera stop fuck you.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
But you know, it seems like they're really like besties
Miranda and Charlotte till this day.
Speaker 7 (32:48):
Really Oh yeah, you see say.
Speaker 6 (32:50):
Because we know Charlotte started a podcast talking about what
are you or? Charlotte and Miranda have done episodes together
based on that so they're still in touch.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
And I don't know if you.
Speaker 6 (33:01):
Guys knew Miranda and Carrie like knew each other the longest,
Like they actually acted on a project together when they
were like fourteen. There's a picture of them as teenage
girls out there like at Google Babowl. Miranda was blonde.
But they knew each other since they were like little girls,
like they they acted in theater together.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
Way they go way back. Well the business, small business,
small world. But that was our votus episode Things you
Never Knew about Sex and the City and we'll be
back for season two, episode one, So thank you for
kicking it with us. Make sure you joined the conversation
