Olivia and Shauna are working on their long-distance relationship, but they're always together in spirit, especially when it comes to talking about pop culture. 2025 is going to be a monumental year, for better or worse, and in order to have something to look forward to, The Junkies discuss the pop culture they most want to put in their veins this year. Olivia tries to convince Shauna to keep watching White Lotus, and Shauna makes Olivia promise to go see the new Fantastic Four movie with her. Between new Lady Gaga (and maybe Taylor Swift) music and more Dexter and a Freakier Friday on the horizon, this could very well be a great year. And if not, Shauna has a great drinking game for you.

- And if you've been wondering where we are,
I have been traversing the states, moving the country.
(01:10):
So I'm so excited to catch up with Shauna today,
and really just talk about what we're looking forward to
in this year, just aside from visiting each other.
- I know!
- I want to talk a little bit,
I want to talk a little bit about the TV shows,
the books that we're most excited for,
and of course the music.
(01:31):
- I don't know if you had a chance to see.
- I got a big one.
I got a big one.
- Yeah, let me say it.
- Yes.
- LG7 was just announced at the time of recording,
and that is Lady Gaga 7.
- And it is going.
- Right.
- And LG7 flip phone was announced today.
- LG7 Chocolate.
(01:51):
- Chocolate 7.
- Oh my God, the chocolate ones.
What a five, dude.
- Yeah.
- Lady Gaga's seventh studio album,
and it will be called Mayhem,
and it is going to be released on March 7th.
The lead single was disease,
which I think is an incredible lead single,
and I'm really hoping that the whole album,
sorry, my hair's sticking to my microphone.
(02:13):
(laughing)
- Your hair was so excited as well.
(laughing)
- I'm really hoping that the whole album
kind of sticks to this like dark,
goth pop vibe that disease had, 'cause that is my whole vibe.
So that is right off the bat,
something I'm extremely excited about this year.
- And that's not connected to the Joker, right?
(02:34):
- No, she released LG 6.5,
which was called Harlequin,
which was all, well mostly cover songs,
and the minute she released that,
I gave it one listen 'cause it's Gaga,
but it's all kind of like big band,
I don't know, cover songs.
(02:55):
She's got a wonderful voice,
but it's just not my kind of music.
And then Joker flopped so hard that she backed the FOA
from that album.
She was like, "Oh, just kidding guys, okay, okay, here's disease.
Here's my new pop single."
Remember that?
Remember pop music?
So yeah, we're out of the Joker era, thank God.
I still haven't even watched it,
(03:16):
'cause I've just heard it was so bad.
- That's good to know.
- Yeah.
- I had seen it from you,
and then my coworker who had disease
as their number one song in 2024.
- Oh, I love that.
- And it had just gotten released.
It was this number one song.
And I messaged it to him,
and I was like, "Are you freaking out?"
He was like, "I will think of nothing until March 7th."
(03:39):
So, oh my God, it's good.
I'm so excited.
The visuals have looked so cool and creepy.
And she kind of has Shawna Hare in all of it now.
I look for like promo pics.
I'm doing the side bangs today
'cause I napped really hard on my real bangs, but.
(laughing)
- Napso hard, you have a side part.
- I woke up at 12.
(03:59):
- This'll work, this'll work.
But she's got like the black hair and the bangs.
It's a vibe, it's a vibe.
- Well, something else that dropped yesterday,
as well is the white Lodish trailer for season three.
Have you seen it yet?
- I still haven't watched season two, dude.
- I know.
Listen, I'm gonna get my verbal ass kicking here,
(04:22):
but I was gonna board with white Lodish.
- Oh no.
- No, season two is much better than season one.
- I think that you should give it a go.
It is a Aubrey Paza, it's amazing.
And it's just, oh, it's in Italy.
You wanna be in Italy.
- I do wanna be in Italy.
(04:44):
- Season three is in Thailand.
And a lot of them are kind of like power dynamics.
I'd say season one is about wealth disparity.
- Yeah, for sure.
- Season two is more about gender divide.
- I think.
- And so each of them kind of have a theme.
Season three, we don't necessarily know
(05:04):
what it's gonna be about yet,
but I think it's gonna be really, really interesting.
- And it was kind of a tie-wrap.
- But for some reason, I don't know.
It kind of felt like it went nowhere for me.
The last episode I guess was satisfying.
And I did really like Jennifer Coolidge.
So, maybe I can see some.
- What are you talking about?
- These guys, they're just crazy.
(05:25):
- These guys.
- They're crazy.
- I know that quote just because it was so popular.
And I didn't even watch it.
- Yeah, exactly.
And so the cast for white Lodish is,
you'll see Walton Goggins, I think Walter Goggins.
- You guys?
- Yeah.
- Parker, I love her.
(05:46):
- Yeah.
Parker Posey is gonna be in season three.
So, I mean, it's time to, I know.
- Yes, I love her.
- Oh, okay.
- Not just from Josie and the Post-Aid cast.
- Yeah. - You gotta give it a go.
- Oh my God.
Maybe I'll give it a whirl.
- Give it a whirl.
- I have been watching so much just random stuff lately.
(06:06):
So I feel like I need something like,
I don't know, good and consistent to watch.
Not good age, or whatever it's called.
(laughs)
- Yeah, you're watching these games.
- No, why would I watch that?
- Oh my God, he's the torturing people.
- It's so mind numbing that like, I don't know,
after a day sometimes, you just need to put on something.
(06:30):
That is so mind numbing, it's stupid.
And they crash like a 600 pound life watcher.
- Oh my God, which I still watch sometimes.
(laughs)
- I'm also, I think the thing that I'm most excited for in 2025
is probably my favorite zombie franchise of all time.
28 years later.
(06:52):
- Yeah, so excited for that.
- Yeah, that's gonna be amazing.
I just rewatched 28 weeks later a couple months ago
and I really enjoyed it.
So, Shana puts on this zombie prom every year
to raise money for the modified dolls
and causes that we care about.
(07:14):
And every single time while I'm getting ready,
I watch 28 weeks later.
I love Killian Murphy, so I love 28 days later,
but I do think that 28 weeks later
is the more interesting of the two
because it has more world building within it.
And you really get to see like,
oh, how would society try to rebuild?
(07:35):
And then of course, you know, the disease and all that.
- Yeah, I totally agree.
And 28 days later, first time reason
is really hard to find on streaming.
Like I've tried to find it before and maybe it's,
I'm sure it's been added now that they announced 28 years later.
But for a while, it was really hard to find.
I found like clips on YouTube, so that wasn't gonna do.
(07:58):
So I am super excited about all of the Marvel movies
this year and I'll go into my favorite one
that's coming out here soon after the break.
But the MCU is gonna have Captain America Brave New World,
which comes out in February,
Daredevil Born again, Thunderbolts, Iron Heart,
(08:20):
Fantastic Four.
And then some that I'm actually not that familiar with so far.
So Eyes on Wakanda, which I think is gonna be a TV
show Marvel Zombies, which will be a TV show
and then Wonder Man.
So Marvel, girly here, I will go into which one I'm more
most excited about here soon.
But we got our Marvel run down this year too.
(08:42):
Didn't even those excite you at all?
I'll be able to think you'll end up seeing any of them.
- Marvel Zombies stuck out to me, the other way around.
You know, I can, you can't wait to run down
on the pop culture chunky podcast and be so excited.
- There you go.
- GM.
- I do still think you need to watch Agatha All Along.
(09:02):
I know that's 2024.
But you do still need to give that a view.
It's so good.
And it's Aubrey Plaza again.
- Yes, I would love that.
- I have been wanting to watch that.
Some really good horror is coming out.
We talked about 28 years later.
We also have the, I know what you did last summer sequel
coming out.
(09:22):
- Oh my god.
- They haven't given a name yet.
- I know what you did 45 summers ago.
(laughing)
- We have Death of a Unicorn with Jen Artega,
which looks really, really good.
- It does look good.
- It does.
- So have the conjuring, the last rights.
And then not so horror, maybe some horror for theater fans.
We have Wicked for Good also.
(09:43):
Some really good fantasy books coming out.
We have A Curse Card in Bone by Daniel Jensen.
And then we have the pen ultimate book
of the Blood and Ash series called The Primal of Blood and Bone
by Jennifer L. Arman Trout.
- Do you read this?
- Also.
- Yes, I read all of them.
They're amazing.
- Right.
(10:04):
- I really like them.
And then we have the ultimate book coming out.
We have Hey Mitch, our boy for Sunrise on the Reeping
by Susan Collins.
- We also have a third.
- We also have a third,
or the continuation in the Hunger Games as well.
(10:24):
A movie coming out with that.
But we don't necessarily know,
but the book is coming out in March.
So lots of good fantasy reads coming up as well
on the roadmap.
So we're so excited for all these.
And we're gonna take a quick break and then hop into
what we're most excited about.
(10:46):
(dramatic music)
(dramatic music)
- We're back.
Let's break down what we're most looking forward to.
Shauna, what Marvel movie excites you most
is getting here, you know, little superhero pants
excited and on.
I don't know if you put on superhero pants,
but you get it.
(11:06):
- I think I have superhero pants.
I definitely have Pokemon pants.
Right now I'm wearing leopard print ones.
So, you know, you could be a super leopard.
- Thank you, I could be.
- Chitara.
- I guess she's bad.
Anyway, I realized I said one,
I have two Marvel things on my list because it's me.
The movie that I'm most excited about
is Fantastic Four First Steps.
(11:29):
So that is going to be coming out July 25th, 25th, 25th,
and the Fantastic Four Marvel's first family
is finally coming to the MCU.
So the last time we saw Fantastic Four movies,
it was years ago with Chris Evans and Jessica Alba.
(11:50):
Those movies were pretty good.
We got to see Cliff Evans again as Johnny Storm
in the latest Deadpool and Wolverine movie,
which was hilarious and then he had to gruesome death.
But finally we get all of the Fantastic Four
back together again.
Reed Richards is gonna be Pedro Pascal.
So Daddy is gonna be there for us.
(12:11):
We also have, so I know.
- You might get me with that one.
- You might get me with that one.
- Oh, you're gonna go with me to see it.
Or I'm gonna come to you to see it.
- Yes.
- We're figuring it out.
Vanessa Kirby.
We're figuring out our long distance relationship right now.
Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, who of course rose to fame
(12:33):
with Stranger Things, which is also coming back in 2025.
I'm excited about that too.
And Iban Moss Bachrock, sorry if I butchered that name.
He is of course known for the bear right now as cousin.
I don't remember his character's actual name besides cousin.
- Cousin, cousin.
(12:54):
- Cous.
But yes, they are going to be fighting against Silver Surfer
who will be played by Julia Gardner, who is from,
- Oh, sorry, I don't know shit about fuck.
Yeah.
(laughing)
So it's got this stacked cast
and I think it's gonna be really good.
It's gonna be set in the 60s.
(13:16):
So it's gonna be a little retro.
And gosh, I just, I really hope that it's good.
I mean, I think that Marvel has been on a high streak
the last couple months.
So I have my hopes for it, but super excited
to finally see the fantastic four in the MCU.
- Hmm, I love that.
Yeah, that's gonna be exciting.
(13:37):
I think one of the ones that I'm most excited about
is an A24 classic I mentioned at the top of the episode.
Death of Unicorn.
So it has Genoa Ortega, it has Paul Rudd,
it has Will Polter, it has Tia Leoni.
- They got stacked cast too, damn.
- It's such a stacked cast.
And Death of Unicorn, if you haven't seen the trailer yet,
(14:00):
is a father-daughter duo, Genoa Ortega and Paul Rudd,
hit a unicorn with their car
and they bring it to this wilderness retreat
that they are on their way to.
And it is for a Bego wealthy pharmaceutical CEO.
And they start to try to harness the power of this unicorn.
(14:21):
- Yes, sir.
- And everything goes incredibly wrong.
And it's an A24 classic.
It's the tagline for the movie is they're gonna make a killing.
It looks so incredibly good.
I mean, I think that A24 is really is just a studio
that is putting out really great classic or like original.
(14:42):
- Yeah.
Everything they put out is amazing so far.
It's like if you see a movie coming out
and it says it's A24, you're like, oh, well,
now we gotta see that.
You know, it's probably gonna be pretty good.
- Yeah, immediately.
It's a pop, you know, you're like, okay,
I'm gonna go opening weekend.
I just think that original content from them
(15:04):
is always gonna be good.
You know, not to knock on the marvels of the world,
but for a really long time, that was all that was getting made.
And so I think that A24 and supporting A24
is huge for just the film industry as a whole
'cause it proves you can invest in original IP.
(15:25):
- I totally agree.
- Totally excited.
- Even as like a Marvel fan and even a DC in Star Wars,
it got so oversaturated for a minute,
which is when we saw like a huge quality dip.
And it just felt like it was more quantity over quality.
So I am glad that they're kind of taking a step back
with some of the marvel, I don't know,
(15:45):
the amount of things that they're putting out.
Even with Star Wars, I lost interest in some of the stuff
that they were putting out 'cause it was just so much.
But yeah, I love A24, I think that's gonna be great.
And Jenna Ortega has the next season of Wednesday
coming out this year too, right?
So that's gonna be a big--
- Oh, I believe it.
- Yeah, I know.
- This year.
(16:06):
- Big 2025 for her if so.
- She is just killing it on a studio.
- She is good.
- She's picking really good projects
that make sense for her.
- She's definitely put herself into this little like
golf girl kind of thing that we don't get enough of,
you know, the Y-N-O-N-O riders of the world.
Like Christina Ricci, I love that.
(16:28):
- I almost feel like she's like a Winona writer
and Aubrey Plaza had a baby.
- I love that.
- Can you imagine that would be so hot?
- The ship is beautiful baby.
- The ship is.
(laughing)
- It is a beautiful baby, it's Jenna Ortega.
- Right?
- First let's be in ship of the year.
- Oh, I love that for us.
(16:49):
- That was so cute.
- Yeah.
- Okay, so back to some nerdy shit.
The final season of My Hero Academia comes out in 2025.
So My Hero Academia has been an anime since 2016
and it follows the story of a kid named Izuku Madoria.
(17:12):
I know I've talked about it a ton on here.
So very briefly, 80% of the population has superpowers.
He was born, it doesn't have a superpower called a quirk.
And the most famous superhero all might give
Izuku is a part of his power.
So he can carry it on.
And this is the story of him becoming
(17:33):
the greatest hero of all time.
The manga ended last year.
So the anime is coming out in fall 25 while they animate it.
And I'm really excited and kind of sad,
but then also, you know, ready for it to come to its conclusion.
And I feel like with a lot of like shown in animes
(17:54):
after they end, you wait a couple years
and then there's always, what are they doing now?
Here's another new season.
So I would hope that they would have one
as adults come out in the future
'cause right now there's still in high school,
but very excited about that.
We have to wait until the fall.
In the meantime, there are a few other great enemies
(18:14):
coming out with their season two this year.
So I think Dandadan is coming out
and season two is coming out this year
and then my dress up darling,
which is that one that you watched.
Did I show you?
Yeah, season two, that is finally coming out this year too.
And I think one punch man is coming out with its third season.
(18:34):
So should be eight good here for anime fans.
I love it, I love it.
One of the things that we might end up doing,
Shana's coming to visit me this weekend.
Yeah.
It's unfortunately might be raining me entire time.
So we may be going to the Japan town mall
and spending a lot of time getting in a way.
I do love the Japan town mall.
(18:57):
We're gonna get some food for sure.
Yes, absolutely.
So going back to my little 12 year old self
is it 2008, it was in 2008, but don't mask.
Oh, no.
We have a freaky Friday coming out in 2025.
(19:19):
I've got.
And it has all of our favorites in it.
Of course, Jamie Lee Curtis, Lindsay Lohan, Chad Michael Murray,
is set to be in it.
He's so fine.
We don't know a ton yet, but the little bit
that we do have about the movie is years after
Tess and Anna endured an identity crisis.
(19:40):
Anna now has a daughter and soon to be stepped out
as they navigate the challenges that come
when two families merge.
Tess and Anna realize that lightning may strike twice.
So we're gonna get a little body swap.
Now, if you heard our analysis of Lindsay Lohan's Christmas
(20:02):
movies, the Lohan is on the lot.
The Lohan has not delivered quality,
but it looks incredible.
Quasit.
She looks amazing.
Yes, I like looking at her.
Yeah.
Hopefully it's not a movie.
We're in Shana and I decided it's better when we mute it.
But I am very excited for it.
I think it will give us really great throwbacks.
(20:25):
It's just a little warm nostalgia hug.
I do hope that we get new music from it.
I hope she's still in her little punk band.
But that'd be wonderful.
Like I think they have to because it was such a big part
of her or like her daughters into it.
And she's like singing a song with her and stuff like that.
(20:46):
Or I'm gonna assume that she grew up to be more like her mom.
And it's like now maybe she's the straight-laced one
with like a little punk daughter.
And she's like, oh, you know.
Yeah, yeah, I could see that.
But yeah, I'm very excited for that.
I think, you know, it'll do well just because it is such a fan favorite.
(21:07):
I really love the soul.
We love the soul, too.
We love the soul, too.
I love what Jamie Lee Curtis is just like, you know what?
I got the yogurt money.
Let's go back to the franchise.
The yogurt money.
Not the yogurt money, man.
Her bowels are so healthy.
Her gut health is just out of this world.
She's ready to do all these, you know, reimaginates.
(21:28):
Yeah.
I am excited.
I haven't seen the last show girl.
I think it came out already or at least it's in limited release.
That Pamela Anderson movie.
I want to see that.
Oh my God.
And she's in that, too.
And I think she plays like an aging show girl.
She's just amazing.
She can do no wrong.
I also really want to see baby girl.
(21:49):
That came out in 2020.
We should watch it this weekend.
OK.
Is it on my release?
Yeah.
It has to be streaming.
And me and you and the other girls coming can all just pitch in to pay for it.
Yeah.
OK.
Baby girl time.
Baby girl time.
[LAUGHS]
Okay.
(22:10):
We're following each other.
We're going to send each other milk across the bar.
Oh my God.
I'm so excited.
OK.
All right.
I'm going to talk about the drinking game that we're going to play at the end of the episode
too.
And encourage our listeners to play along.
But another thing that I am excited about that is coming out this year is Dexter Resurrection.
(22:33):
Yes.
So the prequel series is out right now.
I haven't watched it yet.
My husband and I decided that we're going to wait until the whole thing is released and
then just binge it.
And we're also waiting for February to up our showtime membership so we can watch yellow
jackets releasing on February 14th.
(22:53):
But Dexter Resurrection picks up right after Dexter Newblood spoiler alert here.
If you haven't watched Dexter Newblood just give the next 30 seconds.
OK.
At the end of Dexter Newblood, am I spoiling this for you, Olivia?
Yeah.
Well, then I won't say it.
I'm going to spoil it for you.
(23:14):
I'll spoil it for people on the internet.
Yeah, there you go.
OK, I got to kept up.
All right, well, then I won't spoil it.
Is it a prequel?
This is a sequel.
There's a prequel that came on right and it's on now because this is a sequel with Michael
Seahaw coming back and reprising his role of Dexter.
(23:34):
And it picks up right where Newblood left off and Dexter is in a precarious situation as
he often finds himself in.
So I hope that in Newblood we saw his sister Deb play his dark passenger in internal monologue
spoiler from Dexter, but it went off years ago.
(23:56):
So whatever your fault if it's a spoiler, Deb dies in the final episode.
And so she kind of plays his internal monologue now and it's incredible.
So I hope they keep going with that.
But I'm here for this Dexter Resurrection.
I love it so much.
That is one of my favorite franchises and the prequel series called original sin and our
(24:19):
girl's ceremonial galleries in it.
And apparently it is so good.
So I know.
I know.
Right.
I love that.
I love that.
So I'm going to watch that first and then go to resurrection, but very excited for more
Dexter content.
I love it.
And for my final excitement, the thing I'm most excited for putting my little clown hat
(24:42):
on, you know, we just want to take it off.
Yeah, that's true.
I have been, I have been secretly every day hoping for a surprise drop of reputation of
I Taylor Swift.
I don't know if you know, but I must let these.
What?
Taylor Swift actually just filed for her final trademark extension, both on reputation
(25:06):
and debut, which is Taylor Swift, her namesake album.
And it is her final.
I don't know how long the trademark application goes.
I think it's within this current year.
So she has to release it.
The Grammys are this weekend when we're recording it.
So fans are really theorizing that as soon as the torture poets era ends, that's when we'll
(25:29):
start to see the reputation and debut.
For real, on time, fans have been waiting for a deputation drop.
A debutation.
Yeah, where it's like a double drop.
Yes.
I don't think she would do that.
I think really when it came to folklore and evermore, which were both surprise drops, she
(25:50):
really learned that that shot her album sales and she is nothing, but, you know, a billionaire.
And so she's kind of like sister albums too, right?
They kind of like vibed with their sister album.
And they were COVID albums.
And so they were during the pandemic.
And you know, evermore was probably one of her, you know, like lower selling albums.
(26:13):
And so I think she really learned her lesson on that and will continue to do these really
large promo samples that we've seen through midnight and tortured poet.
But you know, ultimately if reputation does not come out in 2025, I promise to stop talking
about her in 2020.
That's my favorite Taylor album I want it to be released to.
(26:34):
I love it.
Yes.
The secret songs would be so amazing.
And what's been crazy is so if you like the other day when you went to her discography on
her Spotify profile, reputation, the album was no longer showing.
I read that somewhere.
Yeah.
Things are afloat.
(26:55):
There's winds in the east.
The winds are brewing.
And if you know, you heard her here first, if she doesn't release reputation in 2025,
I'm going to, you know, take the clown makeup off her good and I'm going to stop talking about
her.
You're not.
You're not going to get rid of all of your branded cardigans.
I won't.
(27:15):
No, I'm going to stop talking about her on the podcast because you know, not in your actual
like life.
Okay.
Okay.
Sorry.
You're not that lucky.
You're not that lucky.
That's all I think about.
In my mind.
You know, like today, today I was like, oh, I have to get something done.
Let me put on the why you should be a sweaty playlist that I made Shauna.
(27:36):
I love that playlist.
It is a good playlist.
Have you still listened to the Olivia's going away party playlist?
Because that is that's a great playlist.
Okay.
That is a good box.
Those are some bumps.
If you want us to share the iconic Olivia playlist on Instagram, we will do that.
I was in charge of music for Olivia's moving away party.
(27:56):
And I was very proud of that playlist.
Well, my last one is Daredevil born again.
So another Marvel series.
This one's a series though.
So this one will be a TV show.
So we are bringing back all of the original actors from the previous Daredevil series on
Marvel.
I'm so glad that they incorporated those into the MCU.
(28:17):
So we have Charlie Cox's Daredevil Vincent to not for you.
And many others, John Bernthal is coming back as well.
And it looks like it's going to continue where the original Daredevil series kind of left
off.
And I think that this will give new hope to me that Jessica Jones returns because that was
my favorite deboned Marvel series.
(28:39):
I didn't see that.
You did?
I did see that.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
I'm so excited.
Yeah.
And that one was my favorite.
I love her so much.
So yeah.
I love her series.
I think it's so good.
And yeah.
So Daredevil born again is going to be released on Disney plus March 4th, 2025.
(29:00):
So coming up here soon.
Ooh.
Yeah.
I love that.
And they started to release, but it was released in 2025.
Sean and I have both been lapping it up and like little puppy dogs and little kittens
with milk, just like Nicole Kidman.
The on-extorm third book in the Imperian series by Rebecca Yarros.
(29:21):
Do not say any spoilers.
Olivia Bnot.
I read this book so fast, you guys.
She fucking like 20 minutes after it came out.
She's like, I'm done.
I'm done.
Like, I read it in four days.
It is 600 pages.
Did you sleep?
Bitch, don't you have a job?
I have a job.
I had an audiobook.
(29:42):
So I ordered the pre-order, like a month ahead of time.
My pre-order did not come.
And so I was like, okay, well, I'm just going to buy it on audiobook.
But that also meant that all I would do while I was working while I was unpacking my apartment
would just be listening to On-extorm.
Which actually ended up working out.
(30:04):
I did get the physical copy of it as well, just because I like to be able to give it
out to people.
Yeah.
Like, and now I have a library.
So do I have a library.
I have some crows.
Yes, yes, I have a library.
And so I ended up like reading it in four days.
(30:25):
It was in insurance.
Rebecca Yarros fashion.
Amazing.
I'm so excited.
I'm so excited.
Great things.
What chapter are you on now?
Chapter seven.
Jesus.
I know.
I'm reading.
So I'm going to read tonight.
I'm going to read tonight.
I get angry because you're like, no, play with me instead.
I'm like, I want to go read though.
(30:47):
I know.
And I looked up getting it on audiobook so I can listen to it in the card.
It's like 25 bucks.
And I've already paid 25.
It's not Spotify?
No.
It's not.
It's all got like a little lock next to it.
So that sucks.
But no, I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to power through.
(31:08):
Oh, I wonder if it's because it was like release week where she wanted like the sale.
So I would re-wok.
Maybe.
That's a great idea.
Because I definitely listened to the end of Iron Flame on book, like on audiobook.
Yeah.
Well, I was a little refriving.
Yeah.
So that's fair.
I'll check it out.
But yeah, we got a lot of great stuff coming out this year.
(31:31):
And to look forward to there is a light at the end of the 2025 tunnel.
We're going to make it through this, you guys.
We got lots of pop culture to keep us happy.
And I am so excited to see you this weekend.
I miss you so much.
Yes, everyone say happy birthday, Shana.
(31:51):
And our favorite equator is.
Yeah.
Over here.
Let's take a little break.
And then we will catch up and talk about our drinking game this weekend that I'm going
to make you play.
Yeah.
It's your first time coming to San Francisco, right?
(32:12):
I have been to San Francisco a couple times.
I went to visit my ex-boyfriend years ago for the first time.
And then I've been for some more conferences.
Scratch book boyfriend, right?
No, not Scratch book boyfriend.
I just think all of your ex-boyfriends are Scratch book boyfriend.
We need to give them all nicknames.
(32:34):
There's promise ring boyfriend, Scratch book boyfriend.
No, this is put me into therapy boyfriend.
So, yeah, you know, one of the three is one of the quintessential.
Yes, you got to collect them all like infinity stones.
Yeah, that was my first time going.
I really like San Francisco.
I love Japan town.
I'm excited to eat all the food.
(32:55):
Even though it's going to be raining, I did get.
I got my fleeced lined like pantyhose.
So, I mean, wearing lots of like mini skirts.
Jessica said it and I thought that sounded amazing.
No, I just was making the face at you calling it pantyhose.
What do they call it?
75.
What do I call it?
Oh.

August 9th.
Creed in Mountain View, California, which is right near San Jose.
We're going.
We're going.
Be there or be square.
Oh my god.
Culture, energy, defense.
Gather.
Gather.
You can hear Sean.
Sean and I, anytime we do karaoke, do a hire by Creed together.
(37:30):
Yeah.
It's amazing.
You may be listening to us and say, how do they do that?
Our lower register is impeccable.
We are some deep voice, some guttural bitches here.
Oh, girl.

All right.
Let's wrap this puppy up.
Now that we've gazed so far into the future, a little bit backwards with the Creed Reminiscence,
(37:57):
it's time to return to the present, which is almost the past.
It will be when you listen to this.
Oh, no, I like that.
No, I like that.

I have been traversing the states, moving the country.
(01:10):
So I'm so excited to catch up with Shauna today,
and really just talk about what we're looking forward to
in this year, just aside from visiting each other.
- I know!
- I want to talk a little bit,
I want to talk a little bit about the TV shows,
the books that we're most excited for,
and of course the music.
(01:31):
- I don't know if you had a chance to see.
- I got a big one.
I got a big one.
- Yeah, let me say it.
- Yes.
- LG7 was just announced at the time of recording,
and that is Lady Gaga 7.
- And it is going.
- Right.
- And LG7 flip phone was announced today.
- LG7 Chocolate.
(01:51):
- Chocolate 7.
- Oh my God, the chocolate ones.
What a five, dude.
- Yeah.
- Lady Gaga's seventh studio album,
and it will be called Mayhem,
and it is going to be released on March 7th.
The lead single was disease,
which I think is an incredible lead single,
and I'm really hoping that the whole album,
sorry, my hair's sticking to my microphone.
(02:13):
(laughing)
- Your hair was so excited as well.
(laughing)
- I'm really hoping that the whole album
kind of sticks to this like dark,
goth pop vibe that disease had, 'cause that is my whole vibe.
So that is right off the bat,
something I'm extremely excited about this year.
- And that's not connected to the Joker, right?
(02:34):
- No, she released LG 6.5,
which was called Harlequin,
which was all, well mostly cover songs,
and the minute she released that,
I gave it one listen 'cause it's Gaga,
but it's all kind of like big band,
I don't know, cover songs.
(02:55):
She's got a wonderful voice,
but it's just not my kind of music.
And then Joker flopped so hard that she backed the FOA
from that album.
She was like, "Oh, just kidding guys, okay, okay, here's disease.
Here's my new pop single."
Remember that?
Remember pop music?
So yeah, we're out of the Joker era, thank God.
I still haven't even watched it,
(03:16):
'cause I've just heard it was so bad.
- That's good to know.
- Yeah.
- I had seen it from you,
and then my coworker who had disease
as their number one song in 2024.
- Oh, I love that.
- And it had just gotten released.
It was this number one song.
And I messaged it to him,
and I was like, "Are you freaking out?"
He was like, "I will think of nothing until March 7th."
(03:39):
So, oh my God, it's good.
I'm so excited.
The visuals have looked so cool and creepy.
And she kind of has Shawna Hare in all of it now.
I look for like promo pics.
I'm doing the side bangs today
'cause I napped really hard on my real bangs, but.
(laughing)
- Napso hard, you have a side part.
- I woke up at 12.
(03:59):
- This'll work, this'll work.
But she's got like the black hair and the bangs.
It's a vibe, it's a vibe.
- Well, something else that dropped yesterday,
as well is the white Lodish trailer for season three.
Have you seen it yet?
- I still haven't watched season two, dude.
- I know.
Listen, I'm gonna get my verbal ass kicking here,
(04:22):
but I was gonna board with white Lodish.
- Oh no.
- No, season two is much better than season one.
- I think that you should give it a go.
It is a Aubrey Paza, it's amazing.
And it's just, oh, it's in Italy.
You wanna be in Italy.
- I do wanna be in Italy.
(04:44):
- Season three is in Thailand.
And a lot of them are kind of like power dynamics.
I'd say season one is about wealth disparity.
- Yeah, for sure.
- Season two is more about gender divide.
- I think.
- And so each of them kind of have a theme.
Season three, we don't necessarily know
(05:04):
what it's gonna be about yet,
but I think it's gonna be really, really interesting.
- And it was kind of a tie-wrap.
- But for some reason, I don't know.
It kind of felt like it went nowhere for me.
The last episode I guess was satisfying.
And I did really like Jennifer Coolidge.
So, maybe I can see some.
- What are you talking about?
- These guys, they're just crazy.
(05:25):
- These guys.
- They're crazy.
- I know that quote just because it was so popular.
And I didn't even watch it.
- Yeah, exactly.
And so the cast for white Lodish is,
you'll see Walton Goggins, I think Walter Goggins.
- You guys?
- Yeah.
- Parker, I love her.
(05:46):
- Yeah.
Parker Posey is gonna be in season three.
So, I mean, it's time to, I know.
- Yes, I love her.
- Oh, okay.
- Not just from Josie and the Post-Aid cast.
- Yeah. - You gotta give it a go.
- Oh my God.
Maybe I'll give it a whirl.
- Give it a whirl.
- I have been watching so much just random stuff lately.
(06:06):
So I feel like I need something like,
I don't know, good and consistent to watch.
Not good age, or whatever it's called.
(laughs)
- Yeah, you're watching these games.
- No, why would I watch that?
- Oh my God, he's the torturing people.
- It's so mind numbing that like, I don't know,
after a day sometimes, you just need to put on something.
(06:30):
That is so mind numbing, it's stupid.
And they crash like a 600 pound life watcher.
- Oh my God, which I still watch sometimes.
(laughs)
- I'm also, I think the thing that I'm most excited for in 2025
is probably my favorite zombie franchise of all time.
28 years later.
(06:52):
- Yeah, so excited for that.
- Yeah, that's gonna be amazing.
I just rewatched 28 weeks later a couple months ago
and I really enjoyed it.
So, Shana puts on this zombie prom every year
to raise money for the modified dolls
and causes that we care about.
(07:14):
And every single time while I'm getting ready,
I watch 28 weeks later.
I love Killian Murphy, so I love 28 days later,
but I do think that 28 weeks later
is the more interesting of the two
because it has more world building within it.
And you really get to see like,
oh, how would society try to rebuild?
(07:35):
And then of course, you know, the disease and all that.
- Yeah, I totally agree.
And 28 days later, first time reason
is really hard to find on streaming.
Like I've tried to find it before and maybe it's,
I'm sure it's been added now that they announced 28 years later.
But for a while, it was really hard to find.
I found like clips on YouTube, so that wasn't gonna do.
(07:58):
So I am super excited about all of the Marvel movies
this year and I'll go into my favorite one
that's coming out here soon after the break.
But the MCU is gonna have Captain America Brave New World,
which comes out in February,
Daredevil Born again, Thunderbolts, Iron Heart,
(08:20):
Fantastic Four.
And then some that I'm actually not that familiar with so far.
So Eyes on Wakanda, which I think is gonna be a TV
show Marvel Zombies, which will be a TV show
and then Wonder Man.
So Marvel, girly here, I will go into which one I'm more
most excited about here soon.
But we got our Marvel run down this year too.
(08:42):
Didn't even those excite you at all?
I'll be able to think you'll end up seeing any of them.
- Marvel Zombies stuck out to me, the other way around.
You know, I can, you can't wait to run down
on the pop culture chunky podcast and be so excited.
- There you go.
- GM.
- I do still think you need to watch Agatha All Along.
(09:02):
I know that's 2024.
But you do still need to give that a view.
It's so good.
And it's Aubrey Plaza again.
- Yes, I would love that.
- I have been wanting to watch that.
Some really good horror is coming out.
We talked about 28 years later.
We also have the, I know what you did last summer sequel
coming out.
(09:22):
- Oh my god.
- They haven't given a name yet.
- I know what you did 45 summers ago.
(laughing)
- We have Death of a Unicorn with Jen Artega,
which looks really, really good.
- It does look good.
- It does.
- So have the conjuring, the last rights.
And then not so horror, maybe some horror for theater fans.
We have Wicked for Good also.
(09:43):
Some really good fantasy books coming out.
We have A Curse Card in Bone by Daniel Jensen.
And then we have the pen ultimate book
of the Blood and Ash series called The Primal of Blood and Bone
by Jennifer L. Arman Trout.
- Do you read this?
- Also.
- Yes, I read all of them.
They're amazing.
- Right.
(10:04):
- I really like them.
And then we have the ultimate book coming out.
We have Hey Mitch, our boy for Sunrise on the Reeping
by Susan Collins.
- We also have a third.
- We also have a third,
or the continuation in the Hunger Games as well.
(10:24):
A movie coming out with that.
But we don't necessarily know,
but the book is coming out in March.
So lots of good fantasy reads coming up as well
on the roadmap.
So we're so excited for all these.
And we're gonna take a quick break and then hop into
what we're most excited about.
(10:46):
(dramatic music)
(dramatic music)
- We're back.
Let's break down what we're most looking forward to.
Shauna, what Marvel movie excites you most
is getting here, you know, little superhero pants
excited and on.
I don't know if you put on superhero pants,
but you get it.
(11:06):
- I think I have superhero pants.
I definitely have Pokemon pants.
Right now I'm wearing leopard print ones.
So, you know, you could be a super leopard.
- Thank you, I could be.
- Chitara.
- I guess she's bad.
Anyway, I realized I said one,
I have two Marvel things on my list because it's me.
The movie that I'm most excited about
is Fantastic Four First Steps.
(11:29):
So that is going to be coming out July 25th, 25th, 25th,
and the Fantastic Four Marvel's first family
is finally coming to the MCU.
So the last time we saw Fantastic Four movies,
it was years ago with Chris Evans and Jessica Alba.
(11:50):
Those movies were pretty good.
We got to see Cliff Evans again as Johnny Storm
in the latest Deadpool and Wolverine movie,
which was hilarious and then he had to gruesome death.
But finally we get all of the Fantastic Four
back together again.
Reed Richards is gonna be Pedro Pascal.
So Daddy is gonna be there for us.
(12:11):
We also have, so I know.
- You might get me with that one.
- You might get me with that one.
- Oh, you're gonna go with me to see it.
Or I'm gonna come to you to see it.
- Yes.
- We're figuring it out.
Vanessa Kirby.
We're figuring out our long distance relationship right now.
Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, who of course rose to fame
(12:33):
with Stranger Things, which is also coming back in 2025.
I'm excited about that too.
And Iban Moss Bachrock, sorry if I butchered that name.
He is of course known for the bear right now as cousin.
I don't remember his character's actual name besides cousin.
- Cousin, cousin.
(12:54):
- Cous.
But yes, they are going to be fighting against Silver Surfer
who will be played by Julia Gardner, who is from,
- Oh, sorry, I don't know shit about fuck.
Yeah.
(laughing)
So it's got this stacked cast
and I think it's gonna be really good.
It's gonna be set in the 60s.
(13:16):
So it's gonna be a little retro.
And gosh, I just, I really hope that it's good.
I mean, I think that Marvel has been on a high streak
the last couple months.
So I have my hopes for it, but super excited
to finally see the fantastic four in the MCU.
- Hmm, I love that.
Yeah, that's gonna be exciting.
(13:37):
I think one of the ones that I'm most excited about
is an A24 classic I mentioned at the top of the episode.
Death of Unicorn.
So it has Genoa Ortega, it has Paul Rudd,
it has Will Polter, it has Tia Leoni.
- They got stacked cast too, damn.
- It's such a stacked cast.
And Death of Unicorn, if you haven't seen the trailer yet,
(14:00):
is a father-daughter duo, Genoa Ortega and Paul Rudd,
hit a unicorn with their car
and they bring it to this wilderness retreat
that they are on their way to.
And it is for a Bego wealthy pharmaceutical CEO.
And they start to try to harness the power of this unicorn.
(14:21):
- Yes, sir.
- And everything goes incredibly wrong.
And it's an A24 classic.
It's the tagline for the movie is they're gonna make a killing.
It looks so incredibly good.
I mean, I think that A24 is really is just a studio
that is putting out really great classic or like original.
(14:42):
- Yeah.
Everything they put out is amazing so far.
It's like if you see a movie coming out
and it says it's A24, you're like, oh, well,
now we gotta see that.
You know, it's probably gonna be pretty good.
- Yeah, immediately.
It's a pop, you know, you're like, okay,
I'm gonna go opening weekend.
I just think that original content from them
(15:04):
is always gonna be good.
You know, not to knock on the marvels of the world,
but for a really long time, that was all that was getting made.
And so I think that A24 and supporting A24
is huge for just the film industry as a whole
'cause it proves you can invest in original IP.
(15:25):
- I totally agree.
- Totally excited.
- Even as like a Marvel fan and even a DC in Star Wars,
it got so oversaturated for a minute,
which is when we saw like a huge quality dip.
And it just felt like it was more quantity over quality.
So I am glad that they're kind of taking a step back
with some of the marvel, I don't know,
(15:45):
the amount of things that they're putting out.
Even with Star Wars, I lost interest in some of the stuff
that they were putting out 'cause it was just so much.
But yeah, I love A24, I think that's gonna be great.
And Jenna Ortega has the next season of Wednesday
coming out this year too, right?
So that's gonna be a big--
- Oh, I believe it.
- Yeah, I know.
- This year.
(16:06):
- Big 2025 for her if so.
- She is just killing it on a studio.
- She is good.
- She's picking really good projects
that make sense for her.
- She's definitely put herself into this little like
golf girl kind of thing that we don't get enough of,
you know, the Y-N-O-N-O riders of the world.
Like Christina Ricci, I love that.
(16:28):
- I almost feel like she's like a Winona writer
and Aubrey Plaza had a baby.
- I love that.
- Can you imagine that would be so hot?
- The ship is beautiful baby.
- The ship is.
(laughing)
- It is a beautiful baby, it's Jenna Ortega.
- Right?
- First let's be in ship of the year.
- Oh, I love that for us.
(16:49):
- That was so cute.
- Yeah.
- Okay, so back to some nerdy shit.
The final season of My Hero Academia comes out in 2025.
So My Hero Academia has been an anime since 2016
and it follows the story of a kid named Izuku Madoria.
(17:12):
I know I've talked about it a ton on here.
So very briefly, 80% of the population has superpowers.
He was born, it doesn't have a superpower called a quirk.
And the most famous superhero all might give
Izuku is a part of his power.
So he can carry it on.
And this is the story of him becoming
(17:33):
the greatest hero of all time.
The manga ended last year.
So the anime is coming out in fall 25 while they animate it.
And I'm really excited and kind of sad,
but then also, you know, ready for it to come to its conclusion.
And I feel like with a lot of like shown in animes
(17:54):
after they end, you wait a couple years
and then there's always, what are they doing now?
Here's another new season.
So I would hope that they would have one
as adults come out in the future
'cause right now there's still in high school,
but very excited about that.
We have to wait until the fall.
In the meantime, there are a few other great enemies
(18:14):
coming out with their season two this year.
So I think Dandadan is coming out
and season two is coming out this year
and then my dress up darling,
which is that one that you watched.
Did I show you?
Yeah, season two, that is finally coming out this year too.
And I think one punch man is coming out with its third season.
(18:34):
So should be eight good here for anime fans.
I love it, I love it.
One of the things that we might end up doing,
Shana's coming to visit me this weekend.
Yeah.
It's unfortunately might be raining me entire time.
So we may be going to the Japan town mall
and spending a lot of time getting in a way.
I do love the Japan town mall.
(18:57):
We're gonna get some food for sure.
Yes, absolutely.
So going back to my little 12 year old self
is it 2008, it was in 2008, but don't mask.
Oh, no.
We have a freaky Friday coming out in 2025.
(19:19):
I've got.
And it has all of our favorites in it.
Of course, Jamie Lee Curtis, Lindsay Lohan, Chad Michael Murray,
is set to be in it.
He's so fine.
We don't know a ton yet, but the little bit
that we do have about the movie is years after
Tess and Anna endured an identity crisis.
(19:40):
Anna now has a daughter and soon to be stepped out
as they navigate the challenges that come
when two families merge.
Tess and Anna realize that lightning may strike twice.
So we're gonna get a little body swap.
Now, if you heard our analysis of Lindsay Lohan's Christmas
(20:02):
movies, the Lohan is on the lot.
The Lohan has not delivered quality,
but it looks incredible.
Quasit.
She looks amazing.
Yes, I like looking at her.
Yeah.
Hopefully it's not a movie.
We're in Shana and I decided it's better when we mute it.
But I am very excited for it.
I think it will give us really great throwbacks.
(20:25):
It's just a little warm nostalgia hug.
I do hope that we get new music from it.
I hope she's still in her little punk band.
But that'd be wonderful.
Like I think they have to because it was such a big part
of her or like her daughters into it.
And she's like singing a song with her and stuff like that.
(20:46):
Or I'm gonna assume that she grew up to be more like her mom.
And it's like now maybe she's the straight-laced one
with like a little punk daughter.
And she's like, oh, you know.
Yeah, yeah, I could see that.
But yeah, I'm very excited for that.
I think, you know, it'll do well just because it is such a fan favorite.
(21:07):
I really love the soul.
We love the soul, too.
We love the soul, too.
I love what Jamie Lee Curtis is just like, you know what?
I got the yogurt money.
Let's go back to the franchise.
The yogurt money.
Not the yogurt money, man.
Her bowels are so healthy.
Her gut health is just out of this world.
She's ready to do all these, you know, reimaginates.
(21:28):
Yeah.
I am excited.
I haven't seen the last show girl.
I think it came out already or at least it's in limited release.
That Pamela Anderson movie.
I want to see that.
Oh my God.
And she's in that, too.
And I think she plays like an aging show girl.
She's just amazing.
She can do no wrong.
I also really want to see baby girl.
(21:49):
That came out in 2020.
We should watch it this weekend.
OK.
Is it on my release?
Yeah.
It has to be streaming.
And me and you and the other girls coming can all just pitch in to pay for it.
Yeah.
OK.
Baby girl time.
Baby girl time.
[LAUGHS]
Okay.
(22:10):
We're following each other.
We're going to send each other milk across the bar.
Oh my God.
I'm so excited.
OK.
All right.
I'm going to talk about the drinking game that we're going to play at the end of the episode
too.
And encourage our listeners to play along.
But another thing that I am excited about that is coming out this year is Dexter Resurrection.
(22:33):
Yes.
So the prequel series is out right now.
I haven't watched it yet.
My husband and I decided that we're going to wait until the whole thing is released and
then just binge it.
And we're also waiting for February to up our showtime membership so we can watch yellow
jackets releasing on February 14th.
(22:53):
But Dexter Resurrection picks up right after Dexter Newblood spoiler alert here.
If you haven't watched Dexter Newblood just give the next 30 seconds.
OK.
At the end of Dexter Newblood, am I spoiling this for you, Olivia?
Yeah.
Well, then I won't say it.
I'm going to spoil it for you.
(23:14):
I'll spoil it for people on the internet.
Yeah, there you go.
OK, I got to kept up.
All right, well, then I won't spoil it.
Is it a prequel?
This is a sequel.
There's a prequel that came on right and it's on now because this is a sequel with Michael
Seahaw coming back and reprising his role of Dexter.
(23:34):
And it picks up right where Newblood left off and Dexter is in a precarious situation as
he often finds himself in.
So I hope that in Newblood we saw his sister Deb play his dark passenger in internal monologue
spoiler from Dexter, but it went off years ago.
(23:56):
So whatever your fault if it's a spoiler, Deb dies in the final episode.
And so she kind of plays his internal monologue now and it's incredible.
So I hope they keep going with that.
But I'm here for this Dexter Resurrection.
I love it so much.
That is one of my favorite franchises and the prequel series called original sin and our
(24:19):
girl's ceremonial galleries in it.
And apparently it is so good.
So I know.
I know.
Right.
I love that.
I love that.
So I'm going to watch that first and then go to resurrection, but very excited for more
Dexter content.
I love it.
And for my final excitement, the thing I'm most excited for putting my little clown hat
(24:42):
on, you know, we just want to take it off.
Yeah, that's true.
I have been, I have been secretly every day hoping for a surprise drop of reputation of
I Taylor Swift.
I don't know if you know, but I must let these.
What?
Taylor Swift actually just filed for her final trademark extension, both on reputation
(25:06):
and debut, which is Taylor Swift, her namesake album.
And it is her final.
I don't know how long the trademark application goes.
I think it's within this current year.
So she has to release it.
The Grammys are this weekend when we're recording it.
So fans are really theorizing that as soon as the torture poets era ends, that's when we'll
(25:29):
start to see the reputation and debut.
For real, on time, fans have been waiting for a deputation drop.
A debutation.
Yeah, where it's like a double drop.
Yes.
I don't think she would do that.
I think really when it came to folklore and evermore, which were both surprise drops, she
(25:50):
really learned that that shot her album sales and she is nothing, but, you know, a billionaire.
And so she's kind of like sister albums too, right?
They kind of like vibed with their sister album.
And they were COVID albums.
And so they were during the pandemic.
And you know, evermore was probably one of her, you know, like lower selling albums.
(26:13):
And so I think she really learned her lesson on that and will continue to do these really
large promo samples that we've seen through midnight and tortured poet.
But you know, ultimately if reputation does not come out in 2025, I promise to stop talking
about her in 2020.
That's my favorite Taylor album I want it to be released to.
(26:34):
I love it.
Yes.
The secret songs would be so amazing.
And what's been crazy is so if you like the other day when you went to her discography on
her Spotify profile, reputation, the album was no longer showing.
I read that somewhere.
Yeah.
Things are afloat.
(26:55):
There's winds in the east.
The winds are brewing.
And if you know, you heard her here first, if she doesn't release reputation in 2025,
I'm going to, you know, take the clown makeup off her good and I'm going to stop talking about
her.
You're not.
You're not going to get rid of all of your branded cardigans.
I won't.
(27:15):
No, I'm going to stop talking about her on the podcast because you know, not in your actual
like life.
Okay.
Okay.
Sorry.
You're not that lucky.
You're not that lucky.
That's all I think about.
In my mind.
You know, like today, today I was like, oh, I have to get something done.
Let me put on the why you should be a sweaty playlist that I made Shauna.
(27:36):
I love that playlist.
It is a good playlist.
Have you still listened to the Olivia's going away party playlist?
Because that is that's a great playlist.
Okay.
That is a good box.
Those are some bumps.
If you want us to share the iconic Olivia playlist on Instagram, we will do that.
I was in charge of music for Olivia's moving away party.
(27:56):
And I was very proud of that playlist.
Well, my last one is Daredevil born again.
So another Marvel series.
This one's a series though.
So this one will be a TV show.
So we are bringing back all of the original actors from the previous Daredevil series on
Marvel.
I'm so glad that they incorporated those into the MCU.
(28:17):
So we have Charlie Cox's Daredevil Vincent to not for you.
And many others, John Bernthal is coming back as well.
And it looks like it's going to continue where the original Daredevil series kind of left
off.
And I think that this will give new hope to me that Jessica Jones returns because that was
my favorite deboned Marvel series.
(28:39):
I didn't see that.
You did?
I did see that.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
I'm so excited.
Yeah.
And that one was my favorite.
I love her so much.
So yeah.
I love her series.
I think it's so good.
And yeah.
So Daredevil born again is going to be released on Disney plus March 4th, 2025.
(29:00):
So coming up here soon.
Ooh.
Yeah.
I love that.
And they started to release, but it was released in 2025.
Sean and I have both been lapping it up and like little puppy dogs and little kittens
with milk, just like Nicole Kidman.
The on-extorm third book in the Imperian series by Rebecca Yarros.
(29:21):
Do not say any spoilers.
Olivia Bnot.
I read this book so fast, you guys.
She fucking like 20 minutes after it came out.
She's like, I'm done.
I'm done.
Like, I read it in four days.
It is 600 pages.
Did you sleep?
Bitch, don't you have a job?
I have a job.
I had an audiobook.
(29:42):
So I ordered the pre-order, like a month ahead of time.
My pre-order did not come.
And so I was like, okay, well, I'm just going to buy it on audiobook.
But that also meant that all I would do while I was working while I was unpacking my apartment
would just be listening to On-extorm.
Which actually ended up working out.
(30:04):
I did get the physical copy of it as well, just because I like to be able to give it
out to people.
Yeah.
Like, and now I have a library.
So do I have a library.
I have some crows.
Yes, yes, I have a library.
And so I ended up like reading it in four days.
(30:25):
It was in insurance.
Rebecca Yarros fashion.
Amazing.
I'm so excited.
I'm so excited.
Great things.
What chapter are you on now?
Chapter seven.
Jesus.
I know.
I'm reading.
So I'm going to read tonight.
I'm going to read tonight.
I get angry because you're like, no, play with me instead.
I'm like, I want to go read though.
(30:47):
I know.
And I looked up getting it on audiobook so I can listen to it in the card.
It's like 25 bucks.
And I've already paid 25.
It's not Spotify?
No.
It's not.
It's all got like a little lock next to it.
So that sucks.
But no, I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to power through.
(31:08):
Oh, I wonder if it's because it was like release week where she wanted like the sale.
So I would re-wok.
Maybe.
That's a great idea.
Because I definitely listened to the end of Iron Flame on book, like on audiobook.
Yeah.
Well, I was a little refriving.
Yeah.
So that's fair.
I'll check it out.
But yeah, we got a lot of great stuff coming out this year.
(31:31):
And to look forward to there is a light at the end of the 2025 tunnel.
We're going to make it through this, you guys.
We got lots of pop culture to keep us happy.
And I am so excited to see you this weekend.
I miss you so much.
Yes, everyone say happy birthday, Shana.
(31:51):
And our favorite equator is.
Yeah.
Over here.
Let's take a little break.
And then we will catch up and talk about our drinking game this weekend that I'm going
to make you play.
Yeah.
It's your first time coming to San Francisco, right?
(32:12):
I have been to San Francisco a couple times.
I went to visit my ex-boyfriend years ago for the first time.
And then I've been for some more conferences.
Scratch book boyfriend, right?
No, not Scratch book boyfriend.
I just think all of your ex-boyfriends are Scratch book boyfriend.
We need to give them all nicknames.
(32:34):
There's promise ring boyfriend, Scratch book boyfriend.
No, this is put me into therapy boyfriend.
So, yeah, you know, one of the three is one of the quintessential.
Yes, you got to collect them all like infinity stones.
Yeah, that was my first time going.
I really like San Francisco.
I love Japan town.
I'm excited to eat all the food.
(32:55):
Even though it's going to be raining, I did get.
I got my fleeced lined like pantyhose.
So, I mean, wearing lots of like mini skirts.
Jessica said it and I thought that sounded amazing.
No, I just was making the face at you calling it pantyhose.
What do they call it?
75.
What do I call it?
Oh.

Be there or be square.
Oh my god.

You can hear Sean.
Sean and I, anytime we do karaoke, do a hire by Creed together.
(37:30):
Yeah.
It's amazing.
You may be listening to us and say, how do they do that?
Our lower register is impeccable.
We are some deep voice, some guttural bitches here.
Oh, girl.
(laughs)
(singing)
All right.
Let's wrap this puppy up.
Now that we've gazed so far into the future, a little bit backwards with the Creed Reminiscence,
(37:57):
it's time to return to the present, which is almost the past.
It will be when you listen to this.
Oh, no, I like that.
No, I like that.
I like some Rick and Morty shit.
(laughs)
