getting rusty.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yes, you're getting so old. Those jokes are getting so old.
They're getting rusty.
Speaker 1 (04:19):

comment below. We do see the comment, we just don't
reply sometimes. All right, now that we got through all
(04:49):
of those church announcements, what did we think about this
week's episodes? Slow?
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Exactly, lots of red crumbs, and I hope they're actually
leading somewhere instead of just you drop a name, you
drop a name, you drop a name, and then we
don't actually get to see said person attached to said name.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Yeah, there's a lot of I feel like it was
like a setup week, like they're preparing us for some
stuff that's coming down the pipe.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Let me ask you this, do we like the bread
crumbs and do we like where they are possibly going?
Speaker 3 (05:25):
Half of them.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah, I would agree half of them, like, don't tease
me with again, don't tease me with the name and
then have it be something else or someone else. Not cool.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Yeah, I thought I thought this week was a little progressive,
not much, but it was okay, it was definitely. It
felt like an info setup week for us to come.
So we'll see. Well, speaking of let's go ahead and
(06:02):
break everything on down, shall we? Oh my gosh, so
that happened.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Did you forget the hour glass?
Speaker 1 (06:17):
No? I didn't forget the hour glass? Well no, I can,
I can. I can never forget the hour glass because
the hour glass Uh is literally right here.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
But okay, we're all good, all right, it is now
time to start. It was close. It was very close,
all right. Speaking of wonderful questions, how about this one.
(06:54):
Is Stephano alive?
Speaker 2 (06:57):
No, we hope not. Please No. And it's not for
our lack of love for the Phoenix. If anything, it's
our deep respect for the memory of Joe Muscalo that
we're like.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Please no, I mean, even in death, they are still
figuring out ways to incorporate Stefano. Yeah, into a storyline.
And I mean I feel like we were at peace,
when it was just like, okay, he's officially dead. I
(07:34):
think when they wanted to when they tried to resurrect
him with Steveno, it was like, okay, the chip, all right,
well we'll take it. But now it's just kind of like,
all right, let's let the man rest. Because I was
also trying to figure out how old would Stefano be.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Ooh, probably yeah, like Rita said, probably, yeah, close to
it if he wasn't a chicken.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
And he's been gone for about it a little over
a decade.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
So it's kind of like there's there's one hand where
it's like, y'all come on, and then there's the other
hand where it's like, all right, if you're gonna do this,
I'm curious to see how how are you going to
keep this man alive.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
I'm hoping that this is like a fake out kind
of thing, that it's the writers. Again. This is the
thing with the writers who I noticed, as much as
I love their stuff, I have to say I'm not
familiar with them, so I don't know like their tricks
or their tells, you know what I mean. Like, I
don't know if when they mentioned a character, is it
(08:48):
because they're bringing character back and they're setting it up,
or are they doing it because they're filling in like
the tapestry of the show, do you know what I mean?
Like like when like we always talk about having people
on the phone or mentioning people, I feel like they're
doing that, which is great, but it's also throwing us off.
It's like, you know, whether they mentioned we'll get into
(09:09):
it with some of those storylines here. When they mentioned
a character's name, it's like we immediately jump on it,
like or were they coming back? Or sometimes it may
not be. They may just be kind of filling it
in for context.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
I don't know them well enough to know, but I'm
hoping that this is a fake out. I'm hoping that
they would recognize that don't beat a dead force there
if they have something interesting with the idea of Stephano
coming back and then it switches to something else that
could be interesting. I don't know anyone who's clamoring to
have a Stefano figure back on the show. It's obviously
(09:44):
not Joe Mascalo. He's passed away. How many more times
can you do the brain thing? We did that with
Steveno and Steven Nichols. I don't think it was that
well received, you know what I mean, It's like, how
I don't know for right now, I'm putting my trust
in these new writers that it's maybe they're clicking up
something interesting and it's maybe not what we're all expecting.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
I really wish at some point they did bring back
a Stefano esque character, oh totally, but like a but
like a not like the classic villain, like like Stefano was,
but like a new villain and someone who was so untrustworthy.
(10:33):
And I mean, I feel like EJ is kind of that,
but he's so back and forth, and they like, like,
I want someone strictly just evil.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
I feel like Tyler Christopher's original incarnation of Stephan in
the very beginning, like I think back to like his
initial entrance to the show. I think he had potential
to be that and EJ. And EJ has always had
his own swagger, you know, he had He has a
(11:07):
lot of Stephano's characteristics, but he's always had from the
very beginning, he's always had his own swagger. So we'd
have to get someone who's a little more worldly, a
little more you know, having that Stefano essence, and it
can't be Tony or Andre because again, these are completely
(11:30):
different characters. They stand on their own. And I guess
I understand the intention behind trying to keep Stefano's essence
alive because the Demara family is just so fragmented at
this point. So if that's the point, I'm all behind
getting to do that in some way, But you got
to do it the right way. You have to find
(11:51):
some kind of rallying cry. I guess for the demeris.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Like, it's like I when you mentioned Stephan, know I
mean a Stefano Stephan. Oh. I think that would have
been the perfect entryway to like such a diabolical character.
(12:16):
And I'm now thinking of like and this is a
little bit of a crossover because I don't watch Young
and the Restless, but I was hearing about it like
the past couple of months where and correct me if
I'm wrong, because ll I think you watch.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Youngly sporadically now, but I'm up to date.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
So recently they were they're all on this island, or
they were or they're all sent somewhere, And that was
pretty much the introduction of of Aristotle Dumont which ended
up being the character that Billy Flynn is playing. Right,
(12:56):
There's there's.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Some confusion about that that the Aristotle. I think, if
I have my facts correct, that this guy might actually
be a real person, but inevitably who ended up meeting
them was Billy Flynn's new incarnation of Kane Ashby. Uh
but yeah, I'm but I just it's some way too
(13:18):
much time on that damn island. If I've if I
did say about it, I just.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Wish and and walk with me here that suddenly we
started seeing like things happen and say, Loo that are
very Stefano esque mm hm, and no one really knows
who's doing it, who's behind it, what's happening? Right?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Oh, I see where you're going. Yeah. Yeah, the way
that they dragged out that because that the the Aristotle
Dumas name was mentioned for months yeah prior but even but.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Even in this, like if there was no name mentioned,
it was like like, let's say things happened, and then
like one of the last things that happened was Marlena
being kidnapped, right, which is something very Stephani has to do,
or maybe Bell being kidnapped. And then it's like the
reveal of this Stefano spawn, you know like that, I
(14:25):
feel like that would have like kept my attention to
to to have this feel of like this this this
villain like back in Salem, which I I feel like
that's kind of what we need. We need someone who's
just has his hand in almost everything, but is like control,
(14:50):
like trying to gain control of everything and oil to them.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Yeah. I mean, every every soap has it's has its villain,
but yet one or two of them and you know
it's it's a soap trope for a reason. And when
when you when you lose the originals, yeah, he just
comes to pass that you do have to replace them.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
But also, like I'm thinking, before he became a big
cartoonish early on, I think everyone was sort of in
love with Clyde because he was a different type of villain,
new to Salem, new to the arc type that Salem has.
He was very different from the Stephano. He was conniving.
Everyone thought he had sort of this like hill billy,
(15:35):
I don't know, arc type to him. That was disarming
to people. And then you find out, oh, he's actually bad,
and then I mean they kind of went off the
rails with that character. But but something like that, I
think they need to introduce someone. They've done it. They've
had it with Clyde that went off the rails. Remember
Ian McAllister, they let they had He would have been
(15:57):
amazing if they would have invested in him and kept
him up. They did it. Yeah, they chose Stefano over
him in a lot of ways. They made Clyde cartoonish.
They've you know, they've done the Stephen thing.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
I think they've tried to. I think they tried to
make Clyde a little more a little too like Stefano,
and that's where it went off the rails. Like some
of his shenanigans were more things that Stefano would do.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
But I think but if you really think about it,
he has made just as big of an impact on
many different lives in Salem, just like Stefano. Oh yes,
as kooky as some of them were or not. Like
the whole cat thing, Cat Green thing like that was
interesting until a point.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Yeah, yeah, I think we're I think our overall arching
point is that if you're gonna have a villain, you
need especially introduce like a lasting villain, which I think
we all agree we would welcome. Yeah, but we you
need to really invest in the introduction and in the long.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Game and make him brand new. I don't as much
as I like Stepan, I kind of don't want the
next villain to be a Demeira. I just want making
brand new, make him maybe have some sort of a
slight connection to someone or something in Salem.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
But I don't know.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
I think the show can use a resurgence of some
new blood, and they could use a new big bad
in someone that this is would be such a great
part for a man or woman, honestly, an older man
or woman to come in and kind of make their mark.
Yeah yeah, I mean we're done with Orpheus, where you know.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
People bringing up Megan, and I think Megan is another
one that had potential if she if we could just
get her off of the ball obsession. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
because Stefanel has an obsession with Marlena, but it didn't
deter him from his other all the other things he has.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Handed Like, I wouldn't go with me here. I wouldn't
even mind if they created someone that we didn't know about.
I mean, kind of like how they did Rita, but
someone who has ties in Salem that we never knew
about that is around the age of Bell and EJ
(18:22):
and like that generator, like the Nod the Chloe Philip,
like that kind of age range. And even if it
was something like he was or she grew up with them,
(18:42):
grew up in Salem, knew everything that was happening in Salem,
but no one paid attention to them, Like they flew
very low on the radar. And maybe during this they
didn't know that they had ties to either the Demera
(19:04):
family or the Kuriokis family or I would even be
okay if they had ties with Clyde.
Speaker 2 (19:13):
Yeah, I think that. Yeah, I see where you're going
with this. I think what we all don't want is
it to be another Demera. We don't need Stephano didn't
need another kid. We don't need that. In the introduction just.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Yeah, yeah, I mean honestly, I'm okay with.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
That because I know they'll possibilities.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
They'll explain it with like Ralph probably has Stephano's DNA
like somewhere and you know, implanted into somebody years ago.
The mom maybe was super protective, like didn't want like
knew there was ties to the family, but was like nope,
(19:57):
don't exist, and so that DNA is kind of bubble
and bubbled and bubbled, and you know, there's I don't know,
there's there's just so much that could happen to where
it would be it would be interesting again because you
know we've said it here before, like there's a there's
(20:20):
there's the next generation. Because you know, Marlena could only
be kidnapped so many times, Patch can only go on
so many missions. It's like it's like, why not bring
Andrew in on maybe like a more full time role
(20:42):
mm hmm and have him represent like the is a
that connects him with like Jada and Raife and all them,
so that when like the old adventures that we used
to have with John and Patch and Stephano and Victor happened,
when you need someone that's like is a type you
(21:04):
have that because you gave that to to Andrew, who
again fits like that demographic to where it could carry
on for a while. Does that make sense? Yeah, Like
if everyone, if everyone wanted that old feel of like
(21:24):
how days used to be, it can have that feel
in a new generation with with new faces that are
tied to the people that we knew before.
Speaker 3 (21:35):
Then I mean there's a ton of quote unquote like
rogues gallery of people who are still seen, they haven't
been back in a while, they could reinvent them. They've
mentioned you this week. But there's also you know we've
talked about like Tamir's like Stephen Hawk is still out there.
We haven't met Steven yet, we.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
Haven't who else we Peter Blake.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
With Peter Blake, who could have come back? And even
Big Bad, Like that's the only Demira I would accept.
This is the new Big Bad. Yeah. I feel like
members who haven't either haven't been on the show, or
cousins or kids of someone we haven't seen. We haven't
seen Joe and Vic on the show, like whouh Sonny
(22:18):
and Alex's brothers, the twins, we haven't seen them represent
it on the show since they were kids. So like
there's people to bring. We haven't seen Tyler Kuriakis as
an adult yet. He would be an adult now.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, he's the Big Bad for.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
You know, he wants to revenge on what his parents
did to him and or you know, wants to go
after Kate or you know, come for the Curious Fortune.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Like there's a lot of Yeah, there's a lot of
history to tap him to Let's just let's just focus it,
I think, is what we're saying. Let's just please please
have all of these broad comes actually leading to a
long game that we can accept. Don't just pull the
rug out from under us, don't set this up and
then a year from now, say we changed your minds.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
And I think we've been saying for a while Peter
Blake needs to should have been made her return, And
I mean, I guess I'll be the one to say
it if you have to recast it. I mean, it's
been so long to where will accept anybody you know,
But like, but like the character should should have should
(23:24):
already then had her says yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Yep, yes, Well, it seems like a lot of people
are thinking that it's interesting to me that a lot
of the periphery characters are kind of jumpy that Stefano
might be alive, but the people that knew him best
are adamant that, like, nah, he's dead.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Well, because you know who I thought was about to
confirm it, Rita when they when when she paused, and
I was like, she knows something. But again, it's still
interesting that it's like, you know, they mentioned again like
we never found the body. Yeah, oh boy. And then
(24:07):
and oh it kind of it kind of it kind
of broke my heart a little bit when EJ said
to Rita, you know where all the bodies are buried,
and she was like, yep, except his, And I was like, but.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Then then okay. But then that leads me to believe
that Susan's training is not yet complete because her because
I do think she's off on this one. Maybe she's
sensing a Stephano's presence. But then if she but then
(24:48):
it because if she's a me, if she's training to
be a medium, then that's and I had and I
had to look.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
This up if there was actually medium training.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
No, I had to look up because she got into
the weedl of it and I had to look it up.
The difference between a psychic and a medium. A psychic
uses their abilities to gain information about a person's past, present,
or future, often through intuition or other non physical means.
A medium, on the other hand, specializes in communicating with
(25:18):
spirits of the deceased, acting as a bridge between the
living and the departed.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
Like we'll be go, burden goes yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Yes, so so Susan may very well be sensing Stefano's
presence if she is a medium in training. But I
don't believe that she is sensing an alive Stephano. And
if so, I think she would have sensed that a
long time ago.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Yeah, exactly, while we're talking about Susan, I thought, so this,
this moment now goes into the same vault as when
(26:06):
when the when the extra, when the when Tammy was
running and she was just yea, So this this goes
in the in the same in the same thing when
she said I have to go like fill the house
and EJ and Chad, I literally thought, okay, like she's
(26:28):
gonna be off camera doing this when she was like
on camera, she was just like and then she went
to the couch and was like I was losing it.
I was like, I was like, I feel like I
feel like they just said, Stacey, do whatever, because even
(26:56):
I and I feel like Dan and Billy were they
have to stay in it because they kept because then
and I don't and I don't know why why this
was written that suddenly they would try to have like
this serious conversation because the whole time both Dan and
Billy were both like, what the what does she do?
(27:18):
But Stacy was so like like going to the go
into the lamp and being like I was like that
is yeah, please more of that, yes, because I love
(27:40):
those moments when they when when they have to turn
from like main actor to like background. But like it
was so ridiculous, and especially to see her just in
the corner just no.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
But even before that, even before she started feeling up
the room. Uh EJ's expressions just from there the beginning
of their conversation were just amazing and I totally concur
with his line of that most accurate line of the week.
I am gonna need a drink for this.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Yeah, yeah, oh my god, I can. I can? I
can replay that that scene over and over and over again,
like okay, oh my gosh. Can can a fan like
do two things? If someone could ever find that clip
(28:44):
of the background actress who was like dancing while Sammy
was chasing someone, if someone can find that, and then
if someone can also like clip Susan in the background, dude,
I would I would love someone for life.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
And I have I have the perfect I have the
perfect song to it. Top thirty, Timmy, you know that one.
I think it's Jason Derella.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Yeah, but it goes, it goes to what to Susan.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
Yes, to make it a mash up. Both of them
make it a mashup. I can. I can just trust me,
I can. I can see it in my mind. Okay,
music perfectly.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
First of all, thank you mc floyd for your lovely
super chat, uh, he says. More importantly, we find out
e j middle name is Aaron Elvis, Aaron Demira. You
just know he got what uh oh, daddy, okay, let
(30:03):
me finish it. You just know he got a pipe,
a baby arm. That name says it all, daddy Demarra. Also,
Kayla was cute in her matching pink dress and glasses,
so girly pop.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
Thank you mcfloyd.
Speaker 1 (30:20):

did know that's AJ's middle name. That's been a She
uses it every once in a while. But thank you mcfloyd. Yeah,
thank you. You're Probably your assessment is probably right, right.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Oh I didn't. I never knew that EJ was a twin.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
No, they're talking about the real Elvis.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
Probably his twin is named Aaron, So that's why Susan
named him Aaron. Yeah, Elvis Aaron.
Speaker 1 (31:00):

Well plug, if you're in La go see it at
the pantages. It's amazing. But I was. It made me
curious about the movie, and so I watched the movie,
which is very close to the to the musical. But
(32:19):
I was like, oh, what a what a good one.
And the fact that back in nineteen fifty nine we
were having men dress up.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
There are a lot of There are a lot of
classic movies that were way ahead of their time.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah. Yeah, And then I mean, we all know how
it ends, right.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Yeah, I don't remember. Yeah, it's been so long.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
One of the more interesting things was the guy who
I think owned the hotel or was super rich, falling
in love with Daphning, and as Daphne is trying to
(33:04):
explain that she's not like other girls, he's very much
like I know, and I'm okay with that, and it
kind of ends with like, I know your dude, but
I still love you. And I'm like, even back in
nineteen fifty nine we were giving positive messages. Anyway, how
(33:25):
did we get there? Well, we'll take us back to days.
So I'm also curious as to what this dream means.
And I wonder how many times we're going to see this.
I wonder if we're gonna see it as much as
remember when Aiden and Hope first like met and they
(33:48):
kept playing that scene when they were dancing, like, oh
god yes and she would like do the Hohope eyebrow.
I feel like, yeah, I feel like we're gonna what
was Floyd the movie was? Uh? Was some like it hot?
I'm like, how many times are we going to see
this Arabian night thing?
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Uh? Too many? At this point? At this point, it's
only been like two weeks and it's two weeks too many.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
I know it's and they I feel like they keep
cutting something off, like they they've cut it to where
like they don't play the whole thing like as it was,
like I was missing.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
They're probably cutting Stephano out or do you know what
I mean? So they don't have to pay pay pay
rights or royalties or whatever.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
But they got to pay them two girls who keep
bringing in that that gold thing.
Speaker 3 (34:38):
You imagine getting a check now six months ago, be like,
oh wait, I did this almost thirty years ago. They're
like re airing our scene.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
From Hey, some of our okay some of the some
of our are soap people do post their residual checks
and it's like ninety eight cents.
Speaker 3 (34:56):
Yeah, the dollar they got to buy an ice cream
for the residual they just received. Those two women.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
I don't know what ice cream shop now has ice
cream for you.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
I was I was curious though as to who those
women were and if they still watch Days. Can you
imagine if they if they're still fans of Days and
they're sitting there watching and then they're like, right.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
My scene from thirty years ago just popped up finally.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Wow, all right, well, now that we ran circles around
that storyline, was there anything? Oh? And uh, Gwen is
in the house and EJ is like Stefano would not
be happy with that, which.
Speaker 3 (35:48):
I object to. I was like, are you did you
know your father he would actually like Gwen, I remember.
I don't know if you guys remember that this like
it's a sort of famous scene that used to come
up a while ago. They stopped doing it, of course,
but it was when Kristen was teetering on whether she
should be good or bad and she was kind of
(36:09):
starting to scheme, and literally Stefano through Sammy in her
face and was like, you don't know what you're doing.
You need to be like Samantha. And he like used
Samantha as like an archetype for Kristin to like look
up to. So it just reminded me of that when
EJ said that, I was like, do you know your
father like he would look at Gwen and be like
(36:30):
well done, or like welcome to the family, or you know,
how can I use this woman? She's rich? Now she's
in our family. You know she's a schemer. Like that
was the one thing I was like, Ej, I don't
know about that. Your father would probably welcome her in.
Speaker 1 (36:49):
Yeah, but we'll see how this goes. I will say,
I'm a bit curious. I just dear days. Let Stefan
Odamara rest in peace, and now we travel over to
(37:12):
the beautiful courtroom for the witness stay in.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
This was pretty much just a recap of everything we
already knew, and everybody fretting over things we already knew,
and EJ and Bell recapping what we already knew. Next.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
If I were Belle, I would have said, there's no
way in the world I can prosecute this case. And
then there's a part of me that's like, Belle, should
you have even taken a job as a district attorney
(38:01):
when your entire family and the Demyres and Kuriokuses are
the only people who seem to be brought up on
trials and stuff? So you will you will consistently have
a what's the word a conflict of interests? Yeah, when
trying to prosecute people.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
If I were a juror on this case, I would
just be constantly scratching my head at what a hot
mess this is, because how can you be expected to
treat a treat a case like this fairly and justly
(38:47):
and without bias, when literally everybody in the courtroom has
bias and conflict of interest.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
I literally kept waiting for someone during her opening statement
to be like, but aren't you his aunt?
Speaker 3 (39:01):
Yeah, but I wonder what is up EJ? Sleep? We
still don't They kind of drop this and he kind
of gave a lame excuse and they never picked it
back up. Remember, she had the she was she recused herself.
EJ got the judge to put her back on the case,
which is illegal. That doesn't actually happen. But whatever, it's
(39:22):
a soap.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (39:23):
But what's his game plan? Is his game plan that
he thinks subconsciously she's gonna mess it up, or that
she's not gonna go subconsciously as hard at Johnny, like
you know what I mean, Like there's a part of
it that's like if another DA's on it, does AJ
just feel you know, EJ? He's arrogant. Why doesn't he
(39:45):
feel like if another assistant DA gets on it, great,
I'll off the floor with him and win this case.
Why does he want specifically belt on the case, especially
since she's a really good lawyer, and he knows that
she'll match him. Do you know what I mean? It's
something still going weird here going on that I don't
know that. I don't know if he has a trick
up this leave but the insistence of putting her on
(40:07):
this case so he can go head to head with
her and like leave your son's future in the balance.
I don't know if he's, like I said, if he's
counting on her subconsciously not to go as heart as Johnny,
or to like, you know, mess up something or I
don't know, but.
Speaker 2 (40:24):
It's a mess. It's a mess, and there's no new
there's no new news, and.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
Yeah, just just next every everyone keeps saying that he's
I think, using Bell for a mistrial. Oh but but
it's all it's almost like it's almost like the then
the trials sh didn't even start it. Yeah, because even
even the judge who came in, I wanted to be like,
didn't you preside over over Sammy? And who was it Sammy? No?
Speaker 3 (40:56):
No, Samy? And Eric over the baby over Henry. Is
that who you're thinking of?
Speaker 1 (41:01):
Yes? Yeah, but also she she presided over somebody uh
oh Brady and uh Brady and Kristen Britty and Christen.
She presided over that that case too. I'm like, you're
you're already too familiar with with the family, so you
already know the woman before you who's prosecuting. That's that's
(41:22):
a nephew. Yeah. If I was a judge, I would
have been like, counsel approached the bench. Mm hmm, what
you're doing here?
Speaker 3 (41:33):
It's yeah, we'll see. I don't the mistrial thing makes
sense if yeah, it's not a secret, she says on there.
Speaker 1 (41:43):
I don't know, but I think it Also it also
causes turmoil in Bell and e J's relationship, which I'm like,
you know what, it can't be that good to go
through this.
Speaker 3 (42:02):
And he can be totally naive like he the one
time or the so this Bell sort of got him.
He folded and was pissed off and angry at her,
and it's like, you're not having that conversation with the
posing counsel. You're trying to berat her now because you
have a personal relationship with her, like you're the one.
(42:24):
You can't handle the situation already.
Speaker 1 (42:28):
And then going after going after Roman the way that
he did, I'm like the tactics that were you, And
then also like, uh, I'm glad that Johnny was like,
whatever you do, do not go there and try to
blame it on Chanelle, because you know, Chanelle didn't do
it either. And I'm trying to tell myself that the
whole point of this is really to exonerate Johnny, like
(42:50):
you just have to guilty and to prove an innocent. Yeah.
But I'm also like, well, then, Bell, isn't this like
a losing case for you?
Speaker 2 (43:01):
Yep?
Speaker 3 (43:03):
Isn't that great?
Speaker 1 (43:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (43:05):
I mean, well, the thing is, it's a losing case
for her. No matter what. If she wins the trial,
she loses. If she loses the trial, she loses. There
is no winning here. Honestly, a mistrial would be a kindness.
Speaker 1 (43:19):
Mm hmm. I do love the courtroom set though, Oh yeah,
I really like it. It's so nice. Yeah. I love
seeing Bell just do that little walk on the on
the cell phone outside the courtroom. I was like, y'all better,
y'all better the courtroom, y'all better have a courtroom.
Speaker 3 (43:42):
And the opening statements were good, like, I'm glad that
they gave them space to actually give it and we
didn't just like cut away or they didn't come back
and say that they gave them already. It's we actually
got to see them and they were good and m
M yeah, yeah, I don't. I mean, I need something
(44:05):
else interesting to happen in this court case that we
know the person's innocent. So I mean, every even the
prosecutor knows he's innocent, but she's still prosecuting the case
on circumstantial evidence. And I don't know even the even
EJ going after Roman was like, I mean it was
(44:26):
too Yeah.
Speaker 2 (44:30):
Yeah, the good opening statement, but we learned nothing new.
We saw nothing new. Uh, nobody's nobody's a winner. Everybody's
a loser in this situation. Yeah, that's how I feel
about it.
Speaker 3 (44:46):
Hm hmmm, although we okay. The one bright spot I
think of this was I think the Marlena Rachel scene.
What was when Marlena was speaking to Rachel about the trial.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (45:01):
I feel like her wheels are turning. I think with Rachel.
I again, I think Rachel did it. I don't know
if Rachel is the killer. I don't read spoilers. I
don't know. I think she did it, but I feel
like Marlena might. I feel like her wheels are turning
in Regarding Rachel, there was something about that scene, in
the way she was talking with her and getting her
(45:22):
to say what she said.
Speaker 1 (45:23):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (45:23):
There was a part of me that was like, oh,
it is Marlena starting to either suspect her or suspect
she knows more than she sang or interpreted things.
Speaker 1 (45:33):
Wrong or yeah.
Speaker 3 (45:37):
So that was the spot in that one for me.
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know, because that was also weird
to be like, let's just have a girl's night and
then I'm like, well, you could have just told Brady.
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (45:58):
Yeah, there was a reason why she wanted him out
of the house. They felt like as opposed to just
we're gonna watch a movie together.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
I mean, I think she's it's more like she's trying
to get the wheels turning, but again nothing is coming up.
And this is where we fall into the long draw
of a murder mystery. You know, when it's it's start
I guess an attempted murder mystery. At this point, when
it's starting to get stagnant, and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (46:25):
Mhm, because now it's like it's like you you about
to be dealing with something else. Marlena with these dreams
and stuff. So let's concentrate on one thing at a time.
M shall we? Yeah, all right, anything else to discuss?
(46:50):
That was I thought it was a cute scene of
Kate being there for Roman.
Speaker 2 (46:56):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you need this the sweet things being
a good wife.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
She said, I'm clocking into my ship. She said, Baby,
I left my I left my job early. I come
see about my man.
Speaker 2 (47:10):
My Well when her son is her boss, you know.
Speaker 1 (47:15):
Yeah, mm hmm, all right. Well let's go have a
pizza night, shall we?
Speaker 2 (47:25):
Everybody's cooking in the kitchen.
Speaker 3 (47:29):
How good did Kayla look? I was like, okay, can
we can they style you like this?
Speaker 2 (47:35):
She does? She does pop in pink she does mm hmmm.
It is her color.
Speaker 3 (47:41):
Her out of work clothing is nice. Sometimes they really
hit the market.
Speaker 1 (47:45):
Though, And I don't know, I don't know what they had,
but it may patch a little friends scout.
Speaker 3 (47:51):
It doesn't take a lot to get him going A lot.
Speaker 2 (47:55):
A lot was frisky, and you know, I was very
pleasantly surprised this week with Philip. I was like, look
at you getting a brain there, you scarecrow. Where did
that brain come from?
Speaker 1 (48:12):
As far as him figuring out, but I forget the
scarecrow doesn't have a body. Yeah, you're right, Yes, tim
Man doesn't have a heart. Okay, Yeah, I mean I
was like that too. I was like, I was like,
not you figuring it out because you realize she was
talking about you.
Speaker 2 (48:28):
Yeah he was. He was good. He was good this
week on the money.
Speaker 3 (48:34):
Yeah, And I like that.
Speaker 2 (48:35):
It led to a conversation about Kate's past because people
don't realize it doesn't come up very often that Philip
is actually quite even though they h now he's still
very much quite removed in age by like a few
decades from his siblings.
Speaker 3 (48:51):
Yeah, I was surprised he didn't know that story or
his Like, I mean, I guess so because and he
knew the fundamentals of Bill and Curtis and all that,
but not specifically the stuff with Jack and.
Speaker 2 (49:04):
Yeah, I mean, Kit was a very different person by
the time she and Victor were married.
Speaker 3 (49:09):
Yeah, very very rarely do we get characters finding out
old history of the you know what I mean. It's like,
not not similar, but like Johnny finding out about his
parents or something, you know, not to that level. But
but yeah, it's nice to see a character discover something
about their parents that we knew.
Speaker 1 (49:29):
Yeah, it was like, how do you how do you
know that? And it's I mean it's real because I
think we sit here and we're like, well, how does
he not know that? I mean there are some things
that just don't get talked about. Oh, totally.
Speaker 3 (49:40):
And that's something that probably wouldn't have been at the
forefront of like stories he would have heard. That's not
something that gets mentioned a lot, like oh, let me.
Speaker 1 (49:48):
Tell you about my affair.
Speaker 2 (49:50):
Oh no, no, parents are not gonna shared that. But
that kind of information, no, well.
Speaker 3 (49:55):
You know about that, the stuff about like her in
a memoir in Jackson, that is not going to.
Speaker 2 (50:01):
Go I mean yeah, I mean that even the stuff
that's public knowledge, it was it is kind of like
the stuff like exactly like with Johnny and AJ and Sammy,
that stuff was public knowledge. It just didn't get talked about.
Speaker 1 (50:21):
Alex can cook for me anytime.
Speaker 3 (50:25):
It was a very sexy scene.
Speaker 2 (50:27):
Yes, and I do appreciate the ipron because you don't
want to burn on that.
Speaker 1 (50:33):
Mm hmmmm, not at all.
Speaker 2 (50:37):
Keep it clean, keep it nice and ye.
Speaker 1 (50:41):
But now look, this book, this book better do well.
Speaker 2 (50:47):
Oh I think so. I think it sounds. It sounds
very very good to me, and I've said several times
I would I would like to read said book. Now
they're talking so much about the book. It does. It
does actually found like a book I would want to read.
Speaker 4 (51:03):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (51:07):
I don't know Tyler that. I mean, yeah, we don't know.
How specific Stephanie got about past suitors.
Speaker 1 (51:17):
I think it's I think with Philip that was very
specific because he knew exactly.
Speaker 2 (51:25):
I mean, I guess what that was.
Speaker 1 (51:26):
I feel like I feel like Stephanie is going to
be the Taylor Swift of Nevers.
Speaker 2 (51:37):
Yes, yes, okay, this book.
Speaker 1 (51:39):
This book better be good though, because they keep talking
about they like the book ain't even came out with
the cover yet and they already liked bestseller.
Speaker 3 (51:47):
What do you guys think about this boyfriend? Is it Jeremy?
Do we want your What do we think about Jeremy?
Speaker 2 (51:52):
I mean, I think I think it has to be
because he got mentioned, he got mentioned by Patch and
Kayla and with it and it was totally separate conversation.
It had to relate to some to the investigation that
Steve was doing into into the company, and you know,
(52:13):
some stuff came up about Alex, and I would have
to agree with Kayla. Whatever Alex did, you know, I
think we could probably chalk it up to be him
being young and dumb. I can totally see that because
he was he was pretty. He was pretty dumb when
we met him, so I I could totally accept that.
(52:33):
I don't think if any caution on his part, I
don't think there's would be any comparison between Alex Kiakus
and Jeremy Horran because Jeremy Horrn was trash.
Speaker 3 (52:47):
That was like out of left field. I didn't know
what to make of that. I was like, what are
we doing here? Steve just randomly found out Alex got
in trouble years ago. I was like, wait, what are
you talking about? Like, I guess if you're trying to
make the parallel to Jeremy, which he still does it,
I don't know. It just felt black to me. It
was like where are they going with this? Like Steve
(53:08):
uncovers something about Alex, like how odd, but also Jeremy
stuff more interesting.
Speaker 1 (53:14):
I also wanted to be like, I'm so sorry, but
no one in Salem has a squeaky cleaning path. Yeah,
you cannot. You cannot judge anybody else for anything that
they did long years ago.
Speaker 2 (53:26):
Well here's the thing. I think there are exceptions, and
I always believe that contrition is a huge factor. Contrition
being being sorry, showing remorse, actually saying the words I'm
sorry I did this. And you know, and you know,
we've seen we've seen Alex do some pretty dumb stuff,
(53:49):
and we we now know he has he has history
of doing dumbs, even dumber stuff, presumably when he was younger.
I pretty much expected that. But but Jeremy Horton was
one of those characters that was just trash like from
the second he was on like and this is again,
(54:10):
I feel like his the original portrayer. The actor gets
a lot of flack for this, and this is in
no this is in no way related to the actor
who portrayed him. But if you were watching those scenes,
those actual scenes when they brought Jeremy Horton onto the
canvas at the time that Shelley Hennig was playing Stephanie,
(54:36):
he was trash, He was a con man, he talked back,
he was abusive. I mean it got to the point
where he showed up. I remember him showing up to
the Horton Barbecue, and this was in the latter years
of Great Grandma Alice's reign, and even she was like,
you know how, you know how trash you have to
(54:57):
be for Alice Horton to like mm hmmm trash mm hmm.
Speaker 3 (55:03):
Yeah, I'd be curious. So if they are again, we
don't know these writers. Are they bringing him back or
is this just setting up a mystery for something else.
Is she talking about a different boyfriend? I don't know.
I did think it was actually thought it was Jeremy
last week when she got the message, she got the
package and it was mysterious, and I was like, and
then she's like boyfriend or something, And I was like,
(55:24):
who what boyfriend was she? And then immediately was like, Oh,
Jeremy's the only problematic boyfriend that we know of that
she's had. But I was like, maybe they'll maybe they'll
bring someone else from her past. But I was like,
but did we just do that with Everett So.
Speaker 1 (55:38):
And we never got a clear yeah thing of what
their relationship was. We still don't know anything about Barbaratt.
Speaker 3 (55:47):
But I'd love to see Jeremy, whether he they bring
him back and he's reformed or they bring him back
and he's a villain type. I kind of maybe like
the idea if he's a villain and he's a Orton villain,
which you know, it gets so much flat for being
you know.
Speaker 2 (56:03):
Yeah, Look, there is nothing wrong with playing a villain.
I under I understand. It's an undertaking. Believe me, I
get it. If you're especially on a soap playing a villain,
and you play a particular kind of villain, there are
some people who are gonna blur the lines and they're
(56:23):
gonna You're gonna get some hate. You're not gonna get necessarily.
The best fan mel God knows the situation that Cameron
Matheson is dealing with over a g H where just
he is like hate as a character, and sometimes it
gets blurry. But if you have enough thick skin as
an actor, there's nothing wrong with playing a good villain.
(56:47):
This is a it's a soap trope. We need them,
they're needed.
Speaker 1 (56:51):
Well. That just means you're doing great at your job.
Speaker 2 (56:53):
When exactly it should it should If anything, it should
be you could You should consider it a good a
good platform for your work, for your resume, for your reels.
If you can show I can play bad, but I'm
a really nice person when you get to know me.
Speaker 3 (57:12):
Yeah. I did love the the Gwen Tony scene because
I think it brought up something we talked about last
week of like, what's Tony's intention with Kabby? Is he
pure as he says? And I feel like Gwen was
a little onto him and he was kind of He
kind of pulled back a little bit and kind of
changed the subject and went about his way. But I'm
(57:34):
curious if she's going to be roped into now that
she's a Demera, she's living in the Demera house. I'm
interested in what plot lines we're going to see sort
of Gwen get involved in regarding them.
Speaker 2 (57:46):
I think Tony Tony is an interesting character and that
he is usually very upfront and honest with a grain
of salt.
Speaker 1 (58:01):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (58:02):
It's like it's not that he's lying, but he's giving
you just enough of the truth to not be telling
you the whole story.
Speaker 3 (58:15):
Yeah, yeah, Yeah, I definitely think he's up to something.
I think he's whatever this deal with Gabby is, whether
it's real and he has other intentions, or whether it's
not real and he's using her to take it over himself.
I don't know, but yeah, I think I think having
that scene with Gwen sort of questioned him probably leads
(58:38):
more to you know, there's there's more at stake here
than him just helping Gabby. She takes over and that's.
Speaker 1 (58:44):
It, and he's so pushy about it. Yeah, do you
have a plan?
Speaker 3 (58:49):
You know? It was like it was it was last Gabby.
It's like it was last night. I just woke up.
Speaker 1 (58:56):

are I appreciate the new sets? Yeah, I don't think
(01:00:42):
we mentioned. I mean we mentioned before, but we didn't mention.
Now they really got it together Chanel and Johnny's apartment.
It looks really good. Now we got the bookstore that
has been in the corner by itself, and the introduction
of the bookkeeper, mister Foster, who fits right in. And
(01:01:07):
there was a moment where I was like and then
I was like too soon.
Speaker 2 (01:01:11):
Yeah, no, yeah, no, no, no, no, I don't And
I don't think Susan would ever agree to that kind
of storyline. No, but I think a lot of a
lot of our fans hit it on the money that
this is probably gonna be Julie's next venture, you know,
I don't. I you know, I thought about maybe like
would she reopened Doug's place at some point, but one
(01:01:33):
they've done that before, and you know, and Doug gifted
it to her and called a Julie's Place, and too,
I think it would be it would be too close
to what she had with Doug, and I think it
would be she I don't think she could see herself
doing that without him. If she were to take over
ownership at the bookstore, like I think we can all
(01:01:55):
agree is probably where this is heading, it would be
a great that'd be a great new adventure for her.
We know she she has a talent for throwing great
book club sessions.
Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
Yes, so I feel like one or two things are
going to happen. They set up this bookstore for uh
something with Stephanie's book, and then I was like, whyt,
I set up a whole bookstore just for this and
then my next thought was, oh gosh, are we going
to continue having a Julie Gwynn rivalry because Gwenn's going
(01:02:33):
to sweep in and like by the bookstore, and then
Julie is going to be like, well, I can't go
to that book store anymore because you.
Speaker 2 (01:02:42):
Nah, No, I think that was you know, I mean,
Gwen said as much that the necklace is more of
just in a you know, to just to needle Julie,
but that's not really a long term I.
Speaker 1 (01:02:53):
Hope that's what it is, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:02:56):
Yeah, I like the idea of Julie at the bookstore.
I think they sort of let Julie's place sort of
just fall off, and it hasn't been mentioned in a
couple of years now, so it's like, Okay, well she's retired,
I guess, and this is probably more her speed for
her age and where she's at to write a bookstore
as opposed to some you know, thriving restaurant kind of
(01:03:17):
a thing. So yeah, I'm all for it. I think, yeah,
we're if we're also talking about reviving Titan Publishing, and yeah,
two more storylines with that, whether it's Stephanie or another
you know, another writer or they bring more literary stuff
into it, then it makes sense to have a set
or a place for to kind of map out those stories.
Speaker 2 (01:03:38):
I do feel like books in general, literature in general
is kind of getting a revival right now because Days
is not the only sofa that's kind of leaning into it.
They're kind of kind of slowly starting a similar storyline
on gh with one of the actor one of the
characters beginning to write a novel, which made me forget
(01:03:59):
that she actually wrote a novel like when she was
a child. And so it's kind of like the world
is kind of catching up and thinking about, like, you know,
new sets and stuff. Because there's only so many coffee
shops that we can feature. There's only so many restaurants
that we can feature. I think the exception was I
think remember like in the early twenty tenths, like they
(01:04:21):
had the Juice Bar and things like that. So there
are some things to get creative, and you know, we
have Schnell's Bakery, but a bookstore is a natural fit.
It's feeding into several different storylines right now. Guys. I
went to the library yesterday and I forgot how I
forgot how much I loved looking up stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:04:44):
I go to library all the time when he's getting
either a book or so. I a big reponent of
if people don't know you can get movies from the libraries.
So I've gotten movies for years.
Speaker 2 (01:04:54):
From the library.
Speaker 3 (01:04:55):
Oh yeah, and we made new stuff that comes out
if you're Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:04:58):
I needed to get two new book books for this,
for for work, just for research for a new job.
And then I got it one just a good read
for me, and I'm like, I missed this. I don't
get to do this enough.
Speaker 3 (01:05:10):
Justin Do you still have a DVD on my laptop?
I mean not on like a TV, but yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:05:17):
So you you're renting now DVDs from the labrary.
Speaker 2 (01:05:21):
I still have a DVD player.
Speaker 3 (01:05:24):
Yeah, I still have my old VCR. It's not hooked
up or anything, but I keep it in because I
have old cassettes that you know, transferred.
Speaker 2 (01:05:33):
Oh yeah, we have the VC. Yeah, we have a
like I think we have two VCR DVD combos in
the house.
Speaker 1 (01:05:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:05:40):
So if I ever want to watch those tapes for
whatever is on them, old movies or yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:05:46):
Tap, if they work, you you use them. You don't
give them away because you know how much they cost
now people trying to find them away.
Speaker 3 (01:05:57):
When I moved a few years ago, I was like,
let me just hold on to and yeah, you know,
I spent.
Speaker 2 (01:06:03):
Six months trying to find a VCR rewinder. It was
the hardest thing to find.
Speaker 1 (01:06:08):
The way I'm trying to declutter my house, Please come
get stuff, take it. I also had a moment when
Julie was like, I have a friend who's grieving and
she's and while she was describing this person, I was like,
(01:06:30):
who is she talking about? And then I was like, oh.
Speaker 2 (01:06:34):
Oh, you were really checked out, Tony.
Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
I forgot. I'm sorry, but I was. I was literally
like for two seconds, I was staring at the screen like, oh, like,
so not only are we introducing Foster, but like Julie,
you got other friends. And then I was like, oh,
she's talking about Marlene, a girl. But all right, well
(01:06:58):
this is going to be interesting books, book books. Maybe
Terrence can come and be an author of a new
music book and do a book signing at the bookstore.
Speaker 2 (01:07:09):
Tony, I could totally see you being the person who
works at the bookstore who is constantly telling the kids.
Speaker 1 (01:07:21):
People are reading that's you. That is one hundred.
Speaker 2 (01:07:26):
I know I know in real world it's me.
Speaker 1 (01:07:30):
I'm saying this even even on TV World because that
doesn't fit me at all. I would be the one
talking to the kids and somebody else being like, I'm like,
should you be talking? It's a bookstore, not a library.
(01:07:51):
All right, Let's move on to our next bit, which
is something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.
Speaker 2 (01:07:58):
No, just kidding, we're so close to being mature. Who
e Xander and Sarah.
Speaker 1 (01:08:07):
Okay, I'm going to give a shout out to Paul
and Lindsay because I appreciate them saving Sarah and Xander.
And what I mean by this is they are giving
small things. Yeah, there's what's written, but then there's what
they're doing. They're giving us small things to let us
(01:08:29):
know that the love is still there. Yeah, And I
think that's important because I think as fans, we are
struggling with how mean they've been to each other and
how they are going to recover if they have. Paul
and Sander and Sarah are in game, so you have
(01:08:52):
to give a shout out to them for just giving
the little moments, the little looks, the the moments of
reassurance of like I love you, but I realize what
situation we're in.
Speaker 3 (01:09:07):
I also love that they are constantly making sure to
point out that the word is separation and not divorce.
Not once is anyone mentioned divorce, and it's just separation, separation, separation,
and neither one of them has even gone there, even
I think in private talks, like they've they've alluded to
like things being over, but they've neither one of them
(01:09:28):
has ever used the word divorced. So I feel like
this is them, They're like getting up to the line
but realizing they don't want to cross it and saying
it's either one of them saying it to each other
or saying it to other people. So I appreciate that that.
It's like, you know what, we haven't gone too far yet.
We almost got to the brink with them where it
(01:09:49):
was the point of no return, but we haven't gotten
there yet, and so hopefully things calm down. I'm hoping
they don't get worse. How many more times can you
fight over custody? How many you know, how many more
times can we carre the fillip stuff or or her
lying stuff.
Speaker 1 (01:10:06):
It's yeah, you gotta move on, you gotta be bad.
But but then just as we're being reminded that they
have love for each other. We then have Gwyn still
kind of being like, yeah, also, what was Xander eating?
Speaker 2 (01:10:34):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (01:10:34):
The way he was sopping up whatever he was eating
with the biscuit.
Speaker 1 (01:10:37):
Listen, I'm all about I'm all about sopping it up
with a biscuit. But I was like, I don't know
if that day that was lunch or what. But when
I tell you Xander was eating, he was eating.
Speaker 3 (01:10:55):
Automatically. Looked to me like he had soup and bread
or a stewpid.
Speaker 1 (01:10:58):
Bread then wait, uh something with.
Speaker 3 (01:11:03):
Some sauce of gravy. He could stop up.
Speaker 1 (01:11:06):
He was because he was I was like what. I
was like, someone, please look back at the scrip and
let me know what was he eating because it looked good.
Speaker 3 (01:11:17):
But to Paul, he answer, He'll I'm sure he'll tell
us if it.
Speaker 1 (01:11:22):
Was that day. Please.
Speaker 2 (01:11:24):
They like to talk to you, they do.
Speaker 1 (01:11:28):
I really that would be such a good idea. So
there's so many good ideas.
Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
Oh I know, yeah, you just gave me. I'm going
to write down. I'm going to write.
Speaker 1 (01:11:44):
What oh rcelly right down? Tour and anniversary and.
Speaker 2 (01:11:58):
Because we don't write it down forget.
Speaker 1 (01:12:01):
Yeah, okay, anyway, But just as we were like, oh,
just as it's that moment where you have like a
really good idea but you like you can't really like
fully think about it because you've got to concentrate on
(01:12:21):
something else.
Speaker 2 (01:12:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:12:24):
But just when we thought we were getting those moments,
insert Gwyn who is still trying to whatever with Xander,
and then Xander and Gwyn seeing the embrace of Brady
and Sarah, and I'm like, okay, Lord Jesus.
Speaker 2 (01:12:41):
Oh wow, the peace was nice. Well it lasted.
Speaker 1 (01:12:45):
I'm like, how how are we gonna take this?
Speaker 3 (01:12:48):
Not? Well, I'm not crazy about Brady and Sarah I
them as friends, but I will say I appreciate the
way they're going about it by tying it to Rachel.
I think that's an interesting way that's their in for
like whatever relationship this is sprouting. I at least like
(01:13:09):
that part of it, even though I'm not a fan
of of them, you know, maybe even seeing them as
a couple.
Speaker 2 (01:13:15):
No thanks, no, see no, I can't tell you no no.
And just because Brady jumps from one bad relationship to
another bad relationship to another bad relationship doesn't mean we
need to see him in another bad relationship, right, it
is okay for a boy and a girl to be
(01:13:36):
just friends. Guys, I feel like I'm talking to toddlers
at this point.
Speaker 1 (01:13:41):
Yeah, all right, well we'll see what happens with that.
And now, lastly, we're going to move on to our
last tidbit with it's a Boy. First of all, if
you guys did not watch our interview with Rachel Boy,
(01:14:01):
please go back to last week's episode to see that
she is a delight. She is a talent. She is amazing.
She's super sweet and nice and fine and a key key.
Speaker 2 (01:14:11):
And as I learned from her Instagram story, she could
probably kick our butts.
Speaker 1 (01:14:15):
Oh yeah, but shout out once again to her, being like,
what about me? You got hate messages? Hey? Sorry to bother,
but have you heard from the adoptive parents? Are there
(01:14:36):
any more pictures? Baby? This is why people do close adoptions.
This is why people people give the baby up quickly
because you attached. Yeah, if you if you want nothing
to do with the with the child you and and
I'm signing more with Sophia and even the lie that
she that in how she did everything because she also
(01:14:59):
couldn't be a hatch. No one knows what she's really
going through, and the fact that she knows where the
baby is that's a whole nother thing. And and then
to have her mom coming in and being like what
do you do? Why do you say? She's like, oh,
I just gave birth.
Speaker 3 (01:15:17):
Even if she didn't play, or even if like she
wasn't harboring the secret, she still did just give birth.
You know what she's resting, like what what do you
It should.
Speaker 1 (01:15:28):
Be like you you should have been walking in there
with soup, yeah, seven up or something being like are
you okay? Like no, Instead, it's almost like you wanted
to walk in there and be like, all right, the
baby's gonna go get a job, Like That's what I
feel like it felt like. But I love the fact
that she's she stood up for herself. Sophia stood up
for herself and was like, there's Tate doing all this stuff.
(01:15:51):
There's you coming in my face, Like what has anyone
taken even a milliset to think? What about Sophia. I
carried the baby for nine months, I gave birth, I
had to give them up. I had the scheme and
(01:16:11):
plot to make sure that y'all didn't weren't a part
of all this because y'all been getting on my last
artery since month seven.
Speaker 2 (01:16:21):
Because no, because they It was it was because of
them that all this got messed up, right had they
done what she wanted to do, had to close the adoption,
settled it right away. It's all these other people. She
was very clear about her intentions from day one, what
she wanted, what she needed, period. It's everybody else who
(01:16:43):
messed everything up for her doing team too much.
Speaker 3 (01:16:46):
I'm surprised they kept that, like the open part of
the adoption and that that sort of surprised me. Even
when Tate said it this week, I was like, Oh,
they're still going with the idea that it's open. Like
I thought that would have been corrected when and she
had him sign the adoption papers. I was like, why
would it be I don't know, I feel like that's
a glaring mistake, Like why would it be open? Like
(01:17:08):
that just sets you up to now provide fake photos
or event. I mean, you know Tate's gonna ask for
these things. It seems that you wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (01:17:17):
Yeah, I think she. I think I think she did
that because if she had said right away, the baby's
already gone and the adoption is closed, I think he
would have pushed this way. She kind of gets to
keep him in line a little bit. And yes she
has to provide a lot of fake pictures and stuff.
But had it been closed and said you can't have
(01:17:39):
any contact anymore, he would have found a way to
interfere me.
Speaker 1 (01:17:44):
Will said, I went to church the next day after
I gave birth to you. Congratulations, Amy, you want a
mother of the Year prize for that? How about a cookie?
Speaker 2 (01:17:51):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (01:17:53):
But it's like, it's like you have to understand she's
she's young, and she she's gone through a huge ordeal.
Like Sophie. You should tell everyone the adopted parents told
her no more contact. Boom.
Speaker 3 (01:18:06):
That happens because open adoptions are actually not legal. They're
they're more like a it's more like a friendly arrangement.
It's not there's no like a legality that says I
have to provide you with pictures and videos. It's more
like if the person wants to yea mole, is really
for the the birth parent to receive it. It's not
(01:18:27):
for the adopted parents to give it.
Speaker 1 (01:18:30):
It's more so what I thought was it's an open
adoption if the child at one point wanted to know
their information about their birth parents.
Speaker 2 (01:18:40):
I mean that, I mean that is I mean, that's
that's true of any adoption. You know, once once a
child turns eighteen, they have the right, no matter where,
if closed, open, whatever, to search for their birth parents.
There's no that's their right period. And open adoption is
more so for the sake of just kind of keeping things,
(01:19:02):
you know, copathetic and making sure that everyone stays happy.
But there are I mean, it depends on what kind
of lawyer you have. You can't you can make very specific,
you can make it very specific, or you can make
it very vague. It's it just depends.
Speaker 3 (01:19:19):
They're pretty controversial too, Like it's yeah, I mean, I
don't know if Days is going to get into this
part of it, but it's very part of the reason
why they're controversial is because sometimes adopted parents will use
the open adoption moniker as a way to secure the baby,
but because it's not enforceable, you know what I mean.
(01:19:39):
It's like if I want if you too are having
a baby and I want it, I'll say I'll tell
you anything you want. Sure it's going to be open,
and sure I'll send you pictures, but I don't have
a legal right. You know, you can't force me to
do it. So you know, after you signed everything, I
got the baby, I don't have to send you a
picture or a card or so. Yeah, there's they're they're
pretty controversial. So that's obviously p that they sort of
(01:20:00):
went with it, or or even more surprised that Sophia
doesn't have a file of pictures at the ready, because
you know, this is when Tate's gonna ask for stuff.
You know, you can get away with it ten years
down the line if that, you know, that's your plan,
But now is the time where he's gonna want to
see pictures of this baby.
Speaker 2 (01:20:19):
I want her to go off on him so badly.
Speaker 1 (01:20:23):
Yeah, it tastes Nicks. It's like, it's like, how about this,
you know what, here we go. I have another monologue
for Sophia as soon as it tastes like, Hey, Sophia,
I'm so sorry. Is there any way that how about this? Okay?
How about you go be with your little girlfriend? All right?
We done have the baby, the baby gone, the baby
(01:20:44):
has been adopted. You ain't got to worry about the baby,
nomal how about you worry about Holly. How about that,
I'm gonna go over here, I'm gonna go live my life.
I'm gonna go be successful and everything like that. How
about you go worry about Holly, since Holly is who
you really concerned about. Don't be worried about the baby Nomo.
Don't be calling me, texting me, asking me about normal
pictures or reaching out to the adopt opinion and no,
you can't have the information. Go live your life, Tate,
(01:21:09):
and get out of mind.
Speaker 3 (01:21:11):
This is interesting. People are mad at Tate when Sophia
is still lying about it. Though, I mean, listen, I
have I have as much sympathy for Sophia, and like,
I get why she did it. But Tate's not the
bad guy here.
Speaker 2 (01:21:25):
He's not the bad guy. But I almost here's the thing,
I would almost be more understanding if he was the
bad guy in this scenario. What's really annoying to me
is that he was so wishy washy throughout this process,
from beginning to end. And that is that is really
(01:21:45):
why Sophia made the decision that she did. Is because
he was back and forth and back and forth and
we can and we can do this, and we can
do that and oh, but I'm gonna miss the baby. Oh,
but it's for the best. And it's like he was
it all.
Speaker 3 (01:22:03):
I think they were very sympatical up and.
Speaker 2 (01:22:05):
I think, yeah, but it's the thing.
Speaker 1 (01:22:10):
The thing is this Tate was still able to live
his life, was not. Sophia at one point had to
be bedridden. She missed graduation, she missed going to the lake,
she missed hanging out, she missed her senior year. Tate
was still out there, gallivant and trying to get his
life together, trying to get Holly bag you know in
the in.
Speaker 3 (01:22:31):
When that's that's what happens.
Speaker 1 (01:22:34):
But when but when she was when she was due
any day. Oh, I'm still going to go to the
lake for for a bit. But if anything happened, No, no,
you should have been No, it's hard.
Speaker 3 (01:22:47):
It's hard to make that argument when her her delivery
was a lie. So birth, Tate was in his room, like,
let's be fair.
Speaker 1 (01:22:57):
Though, you sure, yes, that was a lie, And.
Speaker 3 (01:23:00):
He didn't even go. He went to the lake for
five minutes and came great pack she didn't give birth.
Then she gave birth a week earlier, when he was
sitting in his room.
Speaker 2 (01:23:08):
Like the heart guess where look the herd. Fact what
Tony has alluded to is the fact that Sophia, at
no point in this process has felt one hundred percent
emotionally supported with everybody, everybody, with every with both Tate
and with her her mother, she has felt like she
(01:23:30):
no matter what she says, they're they're always going to be.
She always has to capitulate to their expectations and she.
Speaker 1 (01:23:37):
Has to she has to do what they necessarily want
to do. Sofia was like, listen, we don't want the baby.
Nod and had it and had it in the comforte
of my own home, like right and in my room.
So now I gotta do I gotta do what I
need to do to solidify this because everything has gone awry.
We were supposed to find adopted parents. But he'll come
(01:23:59):
to mom and talking about they gotta be Christian, they
got to be this, they got to be.
Speaker 2 (01:24:01):
That run around your conditions.
Speaker 1 (01:24:05):
And then finally Sophia was just like, listen now and
have a baby, and everything is not where it needs
to be. Drop baby off that fire station. Done.
Speaker 2 (01:24:13):
Look, even Tate's condition of wanting an open adoption, that's
not what Sophia wanted she wanted in the end, she
wanted maybe to at least not the way my understanding
of what there are that they have two different expectations, because,
like you said, open adoption can be mean very different
(01:24:34):
things to different people, and that's why there are problems abound.
Sophia's understanding of what an open adoption, the kind of
open adoption she wanted would be different from Tates and.
Speaker 1 (01:24:48):
We got an adoption shouldn't have even been on.
Speaker 2 (01:24:50):
The I personally think that open adoptions shouldn't have been
on the table.
Speaker 1 (01:24:55):
Pier. You should have came back and said, oh, the
adoption is closed. Here's that hitch. Yeah close, we're not
talking to him, no more close.
Speaker 2 (01:25:05):
Yeah. Look. The Melinda is the only person who who
ever really just sat down and listened to what Sophia wanted,
without any personal expectation, without saying but I would like
I would like this, And I feel like that just
(01:25:29):
was not Sophia was just never given that respect. I'm sorry,
you're gonna have sympathy. Sorry, I'm sorry, there's I know
that there's father's rights in there, sympthing. I'm sorry, yeah,
but but I'm sorry. I I if he's not the
one giving birth. I'm sorry, but you.
Speaker 1 (01:25:47):
Don't even know what Justin was going to say.
Speaker 2 (01:25:50):
Now you make a team.
Speaker 1 (01:25:52):
I think you're gonna jump in in a minute, sucker.
Speaker 3 (01:25:57):
I have sympathy for I have all the sympathy word
for Sophia. I just don't think that translates to Tate
is wrong. Like you know what I'm saying, I don't.
I'm not getting all this history of Tate, like putting
pressure on her and being against her and being in
conflict with her. I don't recall any of that. I
recall them being very in simpatico up until the last
(01:26:19):
couple of months where there were a few times where
Tate was starting to get some doubt on, you know,
whether or not he wanted to give the baby. And
we've said here before it was it was weird seeing
that because we expected that to happen previously. I don't know,
I don't I weren't aware of all this conflict. I
(01:26:39):
think a lot of this conflict was coming from her mom,
and then maybe some of the conflict may in regards
to Tate coming from his on and off stuff with
Holly Baby. But I didn't see him as unsupportive. I
didn't see them as at odds with each other about
what they wanted. I also don't think that because she
chose to do things the way she does that has
(01:27:01):
an effect on Tate. I have sympathy for Sophia, and
I'm not saying carter away and throw her away in jail,
but that the inverse doesn't make her actions, don't make
him retroactively a bad guy. Now, Like you know, I
just don't get to it's conflict of Tate versus Sophia.
Speaker 2 (01:27:19):
Yeah. No, I'm not saying that he is the bad
guy in a scenario. But you know, in terms of
the situation being fair, it's just you're you're We can't
apply that to a situation that already is not fair.
But he's because she's the one, She's the one that
carried the baby, she's the one that gave birth. It's
(01:27:41):
already not a fair situation.
Speaker 1 (01:27:43):
Here's the thing, I'm going to combine everything that has
just been said one yes, justin you're right, they have
been in sync with each other, very on the same
page as to what they should do, and they have
(01:28:04):
stuck by each other with that. I think there was
also a moment where maybe they both saw that there
could be a future with each other and this baby,
which would have made it harder to then give the
baby up when they were supposed to, right. I think
(01:28:27):
also maybe for a second, and I can't really think
of moments except their time together, and I don't know
if this is for sure. Maybe there was also a
moment where Sophia thought, oh, it could be me and
Tate then, but then his concentration went back to Holly,
(01:28:52):
and then she started seeing his focus is on eventually
being with Holly and that once, once this baby is
out and done, like that's it for them. Yeah, And
so I think in that millisecond of giving birth and
(01:29:13):
figuring out what to do, she was just like, I
just have to do this because I'm not going to
have a future with him. I don't want Like even
I'm looking at the baby being like should I keep it?
But I know I need to because baby, I got
a future and you ain't in and your baby dad
ain't gonna be a part of this either because he
already back with his old girlfriend. Like, there's so much
(01:29:37):
to this storyline as to why she did what she did,
and I think we all kind of even her breathe
a little sigh of relief, like at least you figured
it out, and then at least you saw that the
baby was fine and healthy and happy. It doesn't take
(01:29:59):
away the want, but it's like it's a relief. But
now what Tate is dealing with is, but I wanted
to see the baby. I wanted to hold the baby.
You didn't let me do this. And the mom is like,
but you I didn't get to see my grandchild, and
it's all about them. But it's like, this is why
I had to do this, because I knew y'all hoes
would probably be like, well, maybe we should keep it.
(01:30:23):
We don't have adoptive parents, so why don't we just
And then the mom, well, who are the adoptive parents?
Who what are you going to do with it? Well,
now you're going to have to keep And so it
was on it would have and the whole time, the
baby six months, nine months, a year, and you still like,
(01:30:45):
but I'm I'm supposed to you know what I mean.
So so it's like, yes, she's lying, but I feel
like it was for the betterment of everyone. But still
in the midst of this, no one is checking in
on her except for mal and now we have it's
to it because now she she confessed everything to Sarah.
Speaker 3 (01:31:11):
Well that's a question too. Do we think she told
Sarah the truth because they didn't show it. I'm assuming
she question.
Speaker 1 (01:31:20):
I'm assuming she did because if she didn't, we would
have heard the conversation. The fact that we didn't is like, okay, great,
we already know, do you know? Unless it cuts back
two weeks later and she goes it's told a whole
nother thing, then we can get gasp and grab ap pearls.
But I'm just gonna assume for the sake of now
(01:31:42):
that she just told Sarah everything, which is why Sarah
was looking like, oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (01:31:48):
Or how much of the truth did like does she
know that it's Hovey and Leah, you know to sorrow?
Does she know that part? Or does she know I
put the bait, I placed the baby myself, or I
gave the baby to someone else? You know what I
mean that?
Speaker 1 (01:32:04):
Well, remember the question what happened to the baby? So
really all she had to do was say I gave birth.
Speaker 3 (01:32:12):
That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (01:32:13):
I dropped it off at the fire station. Yeah, And
then she's like now you know.
Speaker 3 (01:32:18):
Or is it did I drop it off at the
fire station in Salem, because Sarah can make that connection
that it's to sorrow, or did I drop it off
in Chicago? Or you know what I mean. I'm wondering
how much of the truth did she tell.
Speaker 1 (01:32:30):
Her or does she need to like you know, I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:32:34):
I'm curious about I hope she lied. I hope she
lied her butt off because guess what it is not
of Sarah's business.
Speaker 3 (01:32:43):
Well, it is if the baby, if if there's a danger.
Speaker 2 (01:32:47):
Yes, if if she can prove that she has reasonable
suspicion that the baby is in distress. But if the
mother is coming to her and saying, I am in
good health. You just checked me out. I promise you
that the baby is in good health. There is a
(01:33:08):
case there yeah, no, no, no, yes, and and she
and she violates her and she violates Sophia's rights if
she takes u any further. There is because no, she
doesn't know, she does. I looked it up. Because suspicion
and curiosity, it is. It is very clearly defined. It
is very clearly defined in the Hippo laws that your
(01:33:30):
your personal curiosity and let's be honest, that's where this
is coming from, because she didn't she wasn't going to
bring it up until Brady said something. And she's growing
closer to Brady by the day. So if so there is.
Speaker 1 (01:33:48):
It is not Sarah's personal curiosity. It is it is
like she came in number one, she is saying that
she had a girl when the records clearly say that
she had a boy. Also, it is a clear indication
as her doctor that she had the baby prior to
(01:34:09):
when she said so, I think the writers and Sarah
explained why Sarah needed to know the truth and why
Sophia had to reassure her that the baby is good
and what she did with the baby.
Speaker 3 (01:34:29):
Yeah, and Sarah explained, it's it's more than just you
telling me the baby's good. I mean, this is I mean,
let's be Siah, like. The reason why these laws are
in place is because people have, whether women or men,
have thrown away babies in garbage dumpsters and have done
things to babies and they've not survived, and they've you know,
we've had terrible tragedies regarding children. This is why this
(01:34:52):
is in place. So it's not just I'm fine, my
baby's fine. That's the end of the discussion. That proved
to me or show me, or at least make me
feel like I can trust that you're saying. What you're
saying is true.
Speaker 2 (01:35:05):
Now, okay, well, okay, so let's let's go with that
argument then that she tells Say, let's say Sophia actually
told Sarah the whole thing, everything that she did. Okay, yes,
the real truth. Yeah, let's let's say, for your argument's sake,
Sarah now knows the truth. She's checked, she's checked out, Sofia,
(01:35:27):
Sophia is fine. Sofia has told her the truth, that
the baby is fine, that the baby has been checked
out and checked out at Salem University Hospital. Everything's good,
everyone's healthy, everyone is accounted for. Everyone's fine. At this point,
Sarah has no legal right to say anything at that point. Yes,
if she does know anything, she's got to keep her
(01:35:49):
trap shut.
Speaker 1 (01:35:51):
Now, what do you arguing about?
Speaker 2 (01:35:54):
Because I can see because I can see it, because
I'm because I it's it's the it's a planner in me.
It's the worrier in me that is anticipating that. Sarah
is like, oh but Brady is my friend. Oh but
but you know, but but Tate still has legal rights.
And I can just I can see it. I can
(01:36:16):
see her trying to because Sarah, because Sarah. Let's be honest. This,
as of late, Sarah has been a character who has
been very much rationalizing her choices. Yeah, and I can
see her applying her recent logic of rationalizing her own choices,
(01:36:37):
rationalizing why she is right about a certain situation, and
putting that on to Sophie's situation. And so I'm not
saying this is going to happen, but in my bones,
I'm like, please don't do this, Please don't do this.
Speaker 1 (01:36:53):
Now. Her telling Brady anything jeopardizes her career, her license, yep.
And I don't think she will do that. She had
And also she's dealing with enough right now with her
(01:37:15):
own baby, her baby she raised for a year and
all of that. Like I think I don't think she would.
I think it's always gonna like if she's a round
baby and around Brady and the baby gets brought up,
it's always going to cut to her.
Speaker 2 (01:37:33):
Being like yeah, oh yah no. I Well, like I
this is like I go on record saying, I hope
you're right. I really hope that both of you are right,
I'm just anticipating.
Speaker 1 (01:37:48):
I mean, I get what you're saying with the fact that,
like she had to tell her the truth, but I
feel like it's also maybe one of those things where
it's like, if the doctor checked her out and she's
already kind of been suspicious at some point, she had
to put two and two together to get four.
Speaker 2 (01:38:09):
And let's say that Sophia didn't tell her the truth.
I do think that Sarah is smart enough to put
two and two together to make four, that if she
puts her mind to it, she could probably calculate when
Sophia actually gave birth and then realized that there was
an abandoned baby who came in shortly thereafter. Because Hobbie
(01:38:30):
comes in and out of the of the hospital, it
wouldn't take much for her to put two and two together.
And yet still she puts two and two together, she
still can't say anything.
Speaker 3 (01:38:43):
It's interesting because I'm thinking, what if she says something
to take Yes, it's still horrible, but how horrible is
it if we're justifying Sophia's actions.
Speaker 2 (01:38:54):
No, no, no, but that no, that is a hip
of and no, that is a hip of violation.
Speaker 3 (01:39:00):
Know I am I'm saying that, but I'm saying morale
I'm saying morally like I could I could also see
her saying he has a right to know this information
for whatever whatever reason.
Speaker 2 (01:39:12):
Yes, and that's and that would be Sarah's rationale exactly
that she would she was doing the morally right thing.
And my argument to that would be, you're still going
to probably lose your license if you do that. Yeah, yeah,
go ahead do so, go ahead and do the morally
right thing if that's if that is what you feel
you need to do. Okay, it's going to cost you
(01:39:35):
your medical license. But okay, what.
Speaker 1 (01:39:38):
Are you laughing at?
Speaker 2 (01:39:44):
Laughing at me?
Speaker 3 (01:39:45):
I know, I know the things that hit a nerve,
I don't.
Speaker 2 (01:39:48):
I know. It just happened. It just so happens that
I'm reading a certain book right now that's related to
what to what we're saying.
Speaker 3 (01:40:00):
So this was supposed to be a tidbit, doesn't it
always happen?
Speaker 2 (01:40:07):
This is always?
Speaker 3 (01:40:08):
This is the three Alex in Stephanie conversation. You know,
all over we spent five minutes on the threesome and
an all we're on Stephanie and Alex.
Speaker 1 (01:40:19):
I'm gonna blame RSELLI, it's.
Speaker 2 (01:40:24):
Fine, you can't.
Speaker 1 (01:40:24):
It's usually me anyways, right, I'm well, I'm glad you
recognize it. Well, now we're gonna move on since we
done drove that into the ground. Well that was your
week of days everybody.
Speaker 2 (01:40:44):
Sorry, Sorry Brad. I know I'm gonna go eat too.
Speaker 1 (01:40:47):
And so now we are heading into our favorite part
of the show, which are segments, and we're gonna start
with mine, which is Tony's Official three Snaps Awards. There
we go. You know, there are times where you want
to say something but you censor yourself, but we still
(01:41:12):
know exactly what you mean. Take a look, Belle. If
you can't see that you are better off without that,
without that man in your.
Speaker 2 (01:41:26):
Life, you just be on.
Speaker 1 (01:41:27):
No jack A, Harry, Paulina Price, Carver HM for almost
calling EJ that MF and holding yourself back, but we
all know what you really wanted to say. You get
(01:41:49):
Tony's official Please Naps Award. Nope, dang hold on, You
get Tony's Official Please Snaps Awards. Yeah, because and another
snap for Martha Madison Bell who was like ooh. And
(01:42:10):
I would also like to give an honorable mention to
Rachel Boyd for bringing concern to Sophia because when she
told her mom what about me? And she went to
her speech, I said, now this this is the monologue
that I had told you to tell your mom a
long time ago.
Speaker 2 (01:42:29):
Can we also give an honorable mention.
Speaker 1 (01:42:31):
To Martina my three Snaps Award?
Speaker 2 (01:42:34):
No, I just because I think you'll agree with.
Speaker 1 (01:42:36):
This, do I come on and give an honorable mention
to It's a gift? But fine, well go ahead. Who
else should we get an honorable mention to on my award?
Speaker 2 (01:42:45):
To Martha Madison herself for not only her not only
in the scene, but in real life, for putting out.
Speaker 4 (01:42:52):
A fire this week, literally putting out another fire, got
a fire.
Speaker 2 (01:42:58):
I just feel like that.
Speaker 1 (01:42:59):
That's if you if you watched Martha Madison's instant stories,
her good friend Lily has not once but twice her
hair on fire. Happy birthday, Lily. Yeah, shout out to
Martha Madison. We do not have a caption that today because,
as you can see, Michael Maddis has not been with us.
(01:43:21):
So we are going to move on and take a
journey back to.
Speaker 3 (01:43:28):
All right, this week, I'll take you back to July
twenty seventh, nineteen ninety seven, when Eric Brady returned to
Salem in the form of Jensen Acles. This is the
sourced version of Little Eric Brady. This is the last
time we saw him. He had been living, of course,
in Colorado the last few years with Marline's parents. And
this is the beginning of the three very small stretch
(01:43:50):
actually three years of Jensen on the show as Eric Brady.
And if you are a member, I did of those
are days extended specifically looking at Eric's love life throughout
the years and specifically the women he was with. And
I think we all naturally gravitate toward Nicole and maybe
maybe Sloan recently, but he has had a few relationships,
(01:44:12):
some of them had scratchers, some of them you may
have forgotten about. But yeah, if you remember, go check
that out. But yeah, that was July twenty seventh, nineteen
ninety seven, when Jensen Acles joined the show as Eric Brady.
Speaker 1 (01:44:24):
And ohs well, and now it's time for it's a
gift with an honorable mention by Tony Moore.
Speaker 2 (01:44:37):
Well, I invite you, Tony Moore to get to give
an honorable mention to my gift. But I don't think
it's needed, because I think you will wholeheartedly agree that
this week's It's a Gift deservedly goes to Stacy Haiduke
and her couch surfing abilities.
Speaker 1 (01:44:55):
I really, I really want to I just want to know,
like did she just have free reign to do whatever?
They were just like Stacey b Susan, what would Susan do?
And she just was like got it, got it.
Speaker 2 (01:45:19):
She's like, I don't, like, I don't know how she
did that.
Speaker 3 (01:45:22):
It was like a snake yeah, yeah, death.
Speaker 4 (01:45:25):
Of Yeah, brilliant right, And that was It's a game,
and now it's time for.
Speaker 1 (01:45:42):
News and gossip.
Speaker 3 (01:45:45):
Start off. We have some celebratory but some not so
celebratory news. We want to wish Al Calderone congratulations. He
actually has just been cast as a series regular in
season two of the NBC show Brilliant Minds. This is,
of course, exactly what medical show who played Nurse Scotti
Silva premier actually this September. But because of that, he
(01:46:06):
will be vacating the role of Hobby Hernandez assuming effective immediately,
so they are recasting for people wondering did this mean
the characters leaving and what that what those repercussions were,
but we have been told that they will recast the role,
so I'm assuming in the next nine no, not nine months,
they're nine months ahead, so next ten to eleven months,
(01:46:30):
twenty seven a new yes, yeah, pretty well yeah, and
this no yes, October or November of next year, we
will see a new Hobby Hernandez in the role of
a new actor, which I'm sure once they cast they
will let us know, probably next week, and then we
will report it here for for a late twenty twenty
(01:46:50):
six debut. But again we wish Al calderone congratulations, even
though we're said to see him go as Hobby if
this is a big, big step up for him in
his career, so yeah, big congratulations to him. And then
we have a little pasting news here, but more congratulations
to mister Kerry Christopher. We told you about this movie

go film it. It has now come out. It is
the movie Weapons. It is getting rave reviews. It actually
opens this week. It currently has one hundred percent on
rot Tomatoes just from the critics score. Everyone is sort
of praising this horror movie and especially Carrie in his performance.
He's getting reviews here as you can see, are read
this quickly. Kerry Christopher as Alex is just phenomenal. His
(01:47:35):
performance even moved me to tears during a quiet but
powerful moment of reconciliation. So yeah, big congratulations to Carrie.
