Speaker 2 You ever just stop in the middle of a crazy day and realize, wow, I needed a break.

Speaker 33 It literally happened to me yesterday.

Speaker 35 I cracked open a Diet Coke, sat back for five minutes, total reset.

Speaker 36 Right?

Speaker 37 There's something about the crispy, refreshing taste of an ice-cold Diet Coke.

Speaker 6 It just hits.

Speaker 26 It's my little me moment, like make time for a Diet Coke break, you know?

Speaker 4 Exactly.

Speaker 41 Diet Coke is the perfect companion for all break moments.

Speaker 28 Diet Coke, this is my taste.

Speaker 42 look man

Speaker 43 oh i see my eye oh my boy look over there wow is that culture yes goodness wow las culturistas

Speaker 42 ding dong las culturistas calling

Speaker 48 i just popped a little treat into the mouth which is where those things go I'm so happy that you said that because one of the things I was most excited to get on here and talk to you about is I have,

Speaker 52 well, first of all, flashback to last year.

Speaker 53 The snack of the summer was cucumbers chopped up with some hot sauce and a little bit of salt and pepper.

Speaker 49 There is a new snack of the

Speaker 31 is my honor to say

Speaker 31 the snack of the summer is frozen green grapes.

Speaker 59 Frozen green grapes.

Speaker 19 You better freeze your grapes up, take them out, put them in a bowl, let them, you know, soften a little bit, pop, pop, pop.

Speaker 59 It's as if you're eating dessert.

Speaker 31 I'm thrilled to share this.

Speaker 62 It's nature's jewelry in a way, don't you think?

Speaker 52 Yes, because you actually are more beautiful while you do it.

Speaker 63 Just like everyone's more beautiful with jewelry.

Speaker 11 It's rural culture number four.

Speaker 25 Everyone's more beautiful with jewelry.

Speaker 66 First of all, that is a huge announcement.

Speaker 68 Congratulations to frozen grapes.

Speaker 46 Green grapes. I'm sorry.
No red.

Speaker 69 It's just that

Speaker 60 I can't be sure yet. I know for a fact that frozen green grapes are.

Speaker 25 I need to put something out there.

Speaker 72 Why are they red grapes, red wine, green grapes, white wine?

Speaker 75 You don't call them, I don't think you call them white grapes, do you?

Speaker 77 Can I say I call them purple grapes?

Speaker 70 Interesting.

Speaker 78 But also I'm color deficient in the eyes.

Speaker 76 No, you're being self-ableist.

Speaker 51 You're so right.

Speaker 38 You can't invalidate you calling them purple grapes just because you're...

Speaker 80 quote-unquote color deficient.

Speaker 81 Here's what I would say.

Speaker 70 If you look at it and say it's red, you're definitely right because i'm color deficient and that's not self-famous it's just me knowing my it's me knowing my affliction i love the word affliction you're actually you should unafflict yourself because they are actually purple okay most of the time why why did you say red then knowing full well because i call them red grapes because that's what they're called at the grocery store oh are they real okay so that's where we um sort of diverge in the woods because i don't go in there when was the last time you went?

Speaker 31 In the grocery store?

Speaker 71 By yourself.

Speaker 49 Probably one time I was making Buffalo Chicken Dip for some event.

Speaker 31 So this is like Super Bowl.

Speaker 81 I'll go in the grocery store if I need to make Buffalo Chicken Dip, basically.

Speaker 31 And what do you get?

Speaker 94 What do you get? What are the ingredients?

Speaker 49 Oh, girl, there's a whole list that I have saved probably both in my notes app and on my phone as a picture.

Speaker 88 But if I had to say off the top of my head, you need your rotisserie chicken, shred that on us.

Speaker 51 Oh, that's your shortcut.

Speaker 65 A little bit of this cheese, a little bit of that cheese, a little bit of this cheese, a little little bit of that cheese some ranch some blue cheese some feta crumbles i'm gonna go go with frank's red hot that is so so so fab and i would you agree that rotisserie chicken is nominated

Speaker 100 this year at the last cultureist culture awards we're not sure for what category yet but i think it's a front runner I just want to say that I suddenly felt a surge of buzz for rotisserie chicken

Speaker 51 chicken.

Speaker 104 Think about how amazing rotisserie chicken is.

Speaker 105 The smell, the look.

Speaker 106 You skip so many steps and so many recipes by buying rotisserie chicken.

Speaker 71 And the thing is, it is monoculture.

Speaker 64 Yes.

Speaker 81 People forget that.

Speaker 107 Like, I think that rotisserie chicken is a TV show.

Speaker 49 I think it's a film series.

Speaker 19 I think it's so much more than just the most straightforward chicken you could really even get, especially at the grocery store.

Speaker 71 But it's for quadroon, wouldn't you say?

Speaker 93 100%.

Speaker 36 Hmm.

Speaker 104 I just want to quickly shout out the treat that I popped into my mouth.

Speaker 73 Truly, this is not an ad.

Speaker 89 Eaton Botanicals, they sent me, they did send me like a fun little PR box, but they have really good marijuana products.

Speaker 49 They sent me some too. I'm so excited.
You are endorsing the stripa.

Speaker 65 I'm endorsing this strip.

Speaker 66 Daily elevation is like, and their fixer-upper.

Speaker 94 Those are like their big hits.

Speaker 66 And then they have the nightly nightcap, which we took on Fire Island.

Speaker 46 Yes, we did.

Speaker 68 This past week.

Speaker 18 And put us right to bed.

Speaker 66 I didn't sleep super well just because I was jet lagged that night, but then I took it later in LA and was out like a light, slept like a baby.

Speaker 49 Worked like a charm on me in Vire Island.

Speaker 77 I mean, I have been sleeping so, and this is, I don't mean to brag.

Speaker 31 I don't mean to brag.

Speaker 76 No, please, you must glow.

Speaker 107 But lately, I have been sleeping so well,

Speaker 87 which I will say.

Speaker 49 Listen, it makes the mornings difficult because I'm not the easiest riser.

Speaker 82 Like some like, it's either I rock it out of bed or it's really hard for me.

Speaker 54 I don't have like a routine.

Speaker 44 And my mornings have been tough.

Speaker 49 I think I'm just like adjusting to a new space literally.

Speaker 84 So, you know, I'm finding it.

Speaker 49 I'm sleeping so well that it's hard to get up.

Speaker 18 Does that make sense?

Speaker 61 I've slept.

Speaker 112 I've slept and I can't get up.

Speaker 31 Yeah.

Speaker 110 It's sort of like when I'm down, I'm down.

Speaker 82 But maybe that's also the amount of energy I'm expending, which is a lot.

Speaker 90 Well, you are newly a city rat once again, and you are just kind of scurrying about and grabbing pizza, grabbing a little piece a little greek coffee cup you're you're really going all around and so you're you're just readjusting you're metabolizing the city in a new way it's been two cold brew mornings

Speaker 52 and i think that's too much for me i think it's i i've been over caffeinated a lot that's okay it's new york baby you're so right the push the pull of the city the city that swirls you dips you then kisses you right on the mouth new york that city of life what is this the city of it's the city of life it's the city of life that's the only word that really encompasses all that new york does can i just say i mean this is a preview from i don't think so honey

Speaker 33 but

Speaker 7 ain't no city like new york city no and this is the best city in the world it really is the best city in the world i hope you're not putting it up on a pedestal right now to yank them down later with your i don't think so honey no that's not really in the news it's really in the news because of mayor oh yes because of mayor because of mayor.

Speaker 31 Can we not? Okay, so this is my plan.

Speaker 93 Don't even rank Cuomo.

Speaker 121 Don't rank Cuomo.

Speaker 91 Zoran number one.

Speaker 66 Zoran number one.

Speaker 63 And probably nothing else.

Speaker 6 Maybe? I don't know.

Speaker 31 Let's see.

Speaker 40 We need to put all the chips on Zoran, don't you feel?

Speaker 59 I feel like if we all solidified behind Zoran, we actually would have a serious race.

Speaker 65 Well, this is what the Working Families party,

Speaker 99 if you are a fan of them, if you align with their their values.

Speaker 38 I don't know how ranked choice works.

Speaker 126 Girl, I vote for who I want to win.

Speaker 127 I do the mayor thing by American Idol Rules.

Speaker 38 They played Kelly's audition.

Speaker 71 She has always been herself, that girl, that woman, that legend.

Speaker 106 Because you know what she kept saying? What?

Speaker 74 What did she say, y'all? In her audition?

Speaker 86 Well, no, y'all, of course, but then she was, she said, cool beans.

Speaker 44 Ah, cool beans.

Speaker 107 Cool beans. Well, she was famous for cool beans.

Speaker 86 Well, I forgot about her association with cool beans until I saw this clip again.

Speaker 115 And I was like, right, like Kelly was one of the big pushers of Cool Beans and Cool Beans is making a return.

Speaker 46 I can feel it.

Speaker 11 There was actually a time when Cool Beans was dangerously close to becoming Kelly's whole personality there on American.

Speaker 77 Of course.

Speaker 19 Like, and they were doing cool beans with her too much.

Speaker 131 And I'm like, stop making her the cool beans girl because this girl is the American.

Speaker 110 I would have like true opinions on this as a gay 12-year-old.

Speaker 57 I was like, I see what they're trying to do with her and this cool beans thing.

Speaker 130 They're trying to minimize her.

Speaker 52 And then they tried to say ducka ducka ducka.

Speaker 60 Do you remember this?

Speaker 31 This is what a ducka ducka.

Speaker 71 I thought it was waka waka.

Speaker 91 No, at one point she was like, Simon said something to her after on audition like, yeah, I didn't remember you from before, but you were good.

Speaker 87 And just and just said it like that. And she goes,

Speaker 40 And she didn't know what to do.

Speaker 87 So she very slowly made her way back to the green room. And she gets there.

Speaker 40 And they were like, what, what just went down?

Speaker 100 And she said something like, he said what he said.

Speaker 18 And I didn't know know what to do so i was like ducka ducka ducka and then they tried to make ducka ducka ducka a thing i was like this girl can't be ducka ducka ducka and cool beans not singing r-e-s-p-e-c-t like that ultimately i won though you know what i mean here i sit on the throne of kelly fandom and i say i look at i look at all of my kingdom and i say i won

Speaker 46 So this is all a conquest to you, being a Kelly fan.

Speaker 88 It is.

Speaker 110 I'm so Machiavellian.

Speaker 59 Congrats to this

Speaker 59 scrappy woman.

Speaker 132 Happy Tell her.

Speaker 43 Happy for her. No, truly happy for her.

Speaker 70 Absolutely.

Speaker 134 In the words of Baldy Undoubted, we can finally admit to preferring the superior version of style, which is.

Speaker 40 No, all of 1989 is back.

Speaker 53 We are so back with all 1989.

Speaker 49 I don't think I listened to the Total's version.

Speaker 104 I walked away from 1989 for a little bit because of TV.

Speaker 73 And this is, which is not to say that I don't love Is It Over Now and the Vault Tracks.

Speaker 46 I've been going in hard on Reputation in the last six months, especially after this announcement.

Speaker 86 Just like, what an album. And she's right.

Speaker 80 Like, how could she improve on this?

Speaker 110 I did the same thing.

Speaker 83 I did something bad is so slept on.

Speaker 135 I did something bad is a crazy, little, freaky, little, weird, little genius pop song.

Speaker 31 It's so bizarre.

Speaker 70 It's number three on that album.

Speaker 64 Like, it's early and it's really weird.

Speaker 49 If you listen to Reputation in a Vacuum again, she went for it.

Speaker 70 Like, there were risks.

Speaker 76 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 112 I mean, if it's good enough for Cynthia Rebo and Shoshana Bean.

Speaker 51 Never forget.

Speaker 65 Never, never forget.

Speaker 53 That actually was so on my mind.

Speaker 31 I couldn't.

Speaker 91 get past that song on my rewatch of it.

Speaker 54 And then I watched the Cynthia and Shoshana thing and I was like, yeah, I mean, this song had a moment, but didn't have its moment.

Speaker 102 It's so kooky.

Speaker 113 I love it.

Speaker 133 No, it deserves its moment.

Speaker 80 And why is, why does it feel so good?

Speaker 59 I remember she did it in Reputational World Tour as well.

Speaker 62 And it was, I was there in the rain and she like

Speaker 121 really was feeling that song in this way that was so reputation era.

Speaker 31 Just like, fuck you.

Speaker 45 I'm, I'm this girl.

Speaker 123 You know what I mean?

Speaker 49 And I was just like, yeah, she really believes this.

Speaker 70 She really is like.

Speaker 31 She acted.

Speaker 93 She was committed to the bit.

Speaker 115 That's one of the shiciest, shall I say, joker modes that we've had in pop culture recently because it was controlled it was like i love joker era i love villain era i love dark era

Speaker 49 you've had you've had that have i you when you were in college doing muratsa that was your villain era oh yeah but not in a way where yeah you know what actually yes that was my dark era yeah i don't know i can't stomach it i can't stomach like fuck you to everybody like i just know that's not who we are it's because you're in your heart you're you're ooey gooey you know what i mean You think?

Speaker 60 We were ruthless towards each other playing Mario Party, though.

Speaker 88 And I want to say that that is, I think, an area where we, I think we truly go for each other during Mario Party because we both know it's war like in the game.

Speaker 54 It's love.

Speaker 123 And I know that you make moves against me because you know I'll forgive you.

Speaker 54 Like whenever you get the opportunity in Mario Party to like steal coins, you always come for me, your girl, because you know I'll forgive you.

Speaker 82 So unfortunately, I had to pay you back and I took your star away.

Speaker 31 And I spent 50 good coins on that.

Speaker 93 Who like is the more punished person in this dynamic?

Speaker 49 I didn't say there was a more punished person.

Speaker 79 I said that we are at war.

Speaker 82 And that is an area where we are at war and it's okay.

Speaker 108 Matt turned the tide of the game last week.

Speaker 66 We were playing Mario Party on Fire Island because it's been rainy there.

Speaker 46 And so it's been a lot of indoor time with the house, which I actually do prefer.

Speaker 68 I'm going to say.

Speaker 67 But we were playing Mario Party Jamboree.

Speaker 138 Really good stuff.

Speaker 94 Really great game.

Speaker 38 Really great game.

Speaker 133 One of a game that Celestium loves so much that they joined the discord for it oh what kind of things go down on the discord on the discord it's like does anyone want to log on and play a game live oh nice it's really fun that is one thing i missed out on in my video game playing days is the live playing but also that's probably fine i would have been so hooked and also probably

Speaker 108 gotten weird with people and the rogers dna

Speaker 43 chelsea ryan rogers gaming diva,

Speaker 76 she and I fuck with each other on that level.

Speaker 95 Really? Yeah, I love that.

Speaker 109 But she, she plays WoW. She's still a WoW girl.

Speaker 115 I play its rival, it's competitor, Final Fantasy 14.

Speaker 86 And I get her. You know what I mean?

Speaker 71 It's like I could spend a whole, it's not that we're depressed.

Speaker 46 It's that we could spend a whole day indoors playing these games, building community through crafting and through, through, you know, battle.

Speaker 129 I dream of a day.

Speaker 79 It is my, a dream for me to think of you, my sister, and my actual blood sister to play together the same game.

Speaker 93 I wonder if there's ever a way we can bridge this gap and find a game that we both love playing.

Speaker 43 I think Mario Party is already there. It's right in front of us.

Speaker 74 And wow, that's so crazy if you can live play Mario Party.

Speaker 49 What happens if the classic thing happens of like, you know, some, do you speak to people?

Speaker 60 No.

Speaker 106 You can speak to people.

Speaker 66 There's

Speaker 67 the Switch app where you can do game chat

Speaker 80 and you chat through the app.

Speaker 38 It's actually kind of incredible technology.

Speaker 106 And we are recording this days before the Switch 2 launch.

Speaker 105 Huge moment in gaming history, personally for me.

Speaker 54 What makes this so momentous?

Speaker 33 It's just a really big deal to have an open world Mario Kart.

Speaker 66 We've had our first new Mario Kart game, truly new Mario Kart game in, I would say,

Speaker 38 over a decade.

Speaker 27 Since whenever the Wii U, no, yeah, since whenever the Wii U version came out, Mario Kart 8.

Speaker 101 so it's it's just been a while it's been a long time since we've had a new Mario Kart and you I know you love Mario Kart I love Mario Kart I mean I my thing is I just like when everything was a little bit simpler it's it's okay it's it's not that it's not simpler it's not that it's it's just

Speaker 65 more needs to happen you know what I mean yeah what do you mean more needs to happen I'm saying in the time that's passed since you thought games were simpler, like games have had to soup themselves up more in the industry as a way of pushing the genre forward.

Speaker 91 I mean, I was, I was truly one of those kids that was like super Mario.

Speaker 70 Like I was playing the

Speaker 124 original games.

Speaker 59 Yeah.

Speaker 61 Like the first time Donkey Kong even stepped onto the stage.

Speaker 66 So do you know who Donkey Kong, who is the woman that Donkey Kong

Speaker 46 Predator had kidnapped?

Speaker 86 Do you know who that woman is?

Speaker 29 Who is she?

Speaker 80 People think it's Peach.

Speaker 69 It's Pauline.

Speaker 98 And she is now the mayor, the county mayor.

Speaker 31 Oh, that's Pauline?

Speaker 73 And lounge singer of New Donk City.

Speaker 86 But she is, it's a throwback to the original Donkey Kong where the raven-haired woman who was who was kidnapped by Donkey Kong was Pauline.

Speaker 40 I have always wondered who she was because you play as Pauline often.

Speaker 38 I love there is a Pauline

Speaker 29 hive.

Speaker 82 Yeah, I think I might be in that, but you know, I always play with Rosalina.

Speaker 89 You actually would love Super Mario Galaxy where you learn of this mystery and the story of Rosalina.

Speaker 61 See, can I say something though?

Speaker 49 Something about Rosalina is losing me a little bit.

Speaker 106 You can't just be like, I stand Rosalina, but wait.

Speaker 67 Okay, fine.

Speaker 42 No, no, no.

Speaker 59 I actually can. First of all, she's fictional.

Speaker 137 So I'm actually going to tear her limb from limb because I'm not hurting anyone.

Speaker 61 I don't love that she fly.

Speaker 49 I kind of don't get the flying thing.

Speaker 31 I guess this is why I need to watch.

Speaker 65 This is why you need to play the game.

Speaker 18 Galaxy. Is that what it's called?

Speaker 125 Yes, Galaxy.

Speaker 31 And I did say that that was one of my favorite words.

Speaker 60 The title of this episode is Galaxy.

Speaker 90 Is Galaxy.

Speaker 59 I love when something is galactic or in a galaxy.

Speaker 86 There is an ASM artist by the name of Gentil Rispering. Some would call her the mother of ASMR.

Speaker 50 Oh my God, some would.

Speaker 65 And she

Speaker 73 is a Russian icon.

Speaker 76 She actually has an insane story.

Speaker 104 She was absolutely the victim of a human trafficking scheme.

Speaker 31 Oh, my God.

Speaker 85 That is part of her story of coming to America.

Speaker 105 And she shares it in harrowing detail on her.

Speaker 86 other blog her lifestyle blog sassy masha

Speaker 31 yes sassy Masha.

Speaker 86 So she, she kind of like puts on a Russian accent in her ASMR videos because it does tickle your brain.

Speaker 105 And she, she's consciously doing it because like she chops up her grammar a little bit, I think,

Speaker 90 because she just knows that it like she knows what buttons to push.

Speaker 106 So, so at one point she's doing, she does a Target haul.

Speaker 71 This is years ago.

Speaker 46 And she does a Target haul and she went for a back to school haul and she is whispering.

Speaker 80 And then she brings out this like a space themed notebook.

Speaker 105 And then she says the words: This book has

Speaker 105 the theme of galaxy.

Speaker 104 And it makes, I think of that anytime you've brought up the word galaxy, because it's, it's,

Speaker 89 this book has the theme of galaxy is such a beautiful sentence, wouldn't you say?

Speaker 61 This book has the theme of galaxy

Speaker 52 this episode has the theme of theme of galaxy.

Speaker 59 What is your favorite galaxy?

Speaker 132 Andromeda.

Speaker 51 Really?

Speaker 134 Yeah.

Speaker 70 What's yours?

Speaker 54 Naboo.

Speaker 141 Girl, that's a planet. Dang.

Speaker 42 Dang. Dang, girl.

Speaker 43 You know what I mean?

Speaker 59 Star Wars.

Speaker 31 A galaxy.

Speaker 51 Far far away.

Speaker 143 You can't spell culturistas without R-I.

Speaker 141 That's right.

Speaker 146 Rhode Island is the perfect place not just for the culturistas of the world, but all the other Eastas too.

Speaker 39 We're talking about the foodistas, the theater Easters, the nature Easters, the luxury stas, whatever you're an Easter for, you'll find it in the ocean state.

Speaker 163 No, I mean, you know what I'm saying in a hyperbolic way they can't believe how good andor is but sure they can

Speaker 59 they love they love star wars they love star wars they got a talented guy doing it

Speaker 31 yeah what's

Speaker 106 what's not to what what's where's the incredulity coming from

Speaker 60 you know what i mean 100 believe it oh yeah something's good believe it you can't believe it i can't believe how good that was you sound stupid you've been watching good movies forever.

Speaker 29 You're wearing. You can't believe it.
You can't believe it.

Speaker 94 You're wearing

Speaker 43 a Jedi robe, holding a lightsaber.

Speaker 124 Like, you bought in. You can believe it.

Speaker 19 Like, you own a porg plushie.

Speaker 65 Like, can you believe it?

Speaker 36 I actually wears a great show.

Speaker 117 You know what? Oh, my God.

Speaker 110 I missed that porg plushie.

Speaker 36 It's awesome. Wait, what happened to it?

Speaker 84 No, we're just living in different.

Speaker 79 We're living separately, me and the porg right now.

Speaker 11 We're living separately.

Speaker 68 We're living.

Speaker 47 Oh, interesting.

Speaker 46 I would say that they really freaked it with the Porg design.

Speaker 36 I,

Speaker 66 everyone saw the Porg and was like, damn, that's cute.

Speaker 49 That was one of the most winning elements of that film, I would say.

Speaker 146 Last Jedi?

Speaker 69 Yes.

Speaker 29 The Porg was a great invention.

Speaker 82 And I believe earns the film sort of, it falls into the positive category.

Speaker 79 I love that movie anyway.

Speaker 11 Anyone that's disputing The Last Jedi, remember that it was the Porgs and kind of get a grip get a grip also if you hate last jedi

Speaker 66 then you deserve to watch all of the knives out films two weeks after the general public yeah

Speaker 57 you don't get ryan johnson okay you really

Speaker 59 you fucked up you will be on the wrong side of history and can i say just to compliment gracie's dad i am out here i have always loved rise of skywalker because but apparently people really don't don't like i love all of them what i loved about rise of skywalker was it felt like it was the campiest one like when they when they when they kissed bitch i screamed and it was like that so gaggy i will i'll never forget sitting there being like there's no way they'll kiss oh my god they kissed i loved it it came out of nowhere but also of course loved it i love kissing and then dying A Little Fall of Raincoated.

Speaker 140 A Little Fall of Raincoated.

Speaker 61 A song I sometimes will listen to out of nowhere.

Speaker 124 Like, I could be having a wonderful summer day, like, I could be walking along the streets listening to let's call it up-tempo pop music.

Speaker 131 You know, my spirits are up, and then something will happen to me.

Speaker 11 Like, some part of my brain, like some synapse will fire, and I know I'll have to listen to a little fall of rain.

Speaker 94 That is your

Speaker 38 that's a beautiful thing for you to return to.

Speaker 86 Sorry, I'm I just got off a plane.

Speaker 68 I'm so tired.

Speaker 109 I'm back. I'm back.
I'm back to T-Word.

Speaker 104 I'm saying tired again.

Speaker 31 It's reclaim it.

Speaker 56 Reclaim it.

Speaker 59 Honestly, when it's the truth, it's the truth.

Speaker 131 I can't believe that.

Speaker 59 Can I just ask you something? Yeah. So did you fly back to New York to get your Switch?

Speaker 109 I flew back to New York because originally

Speaker 66 I was supposed to come back yesterday and I was supposed to leave Thursday night or the next day on Friday because I had something booked this week, but then those things fell off.

Speaker 105 But I did want to get my Switch too in case I can intercept it.

Speaker 71 It's so worth it.

Speaker 131 So ultimately, I could have sent you the Switch.

Speaker 43 No.

Speaker 60 You could have told me because you didn't have to fly all the way back here to get the Switch.

Speaker 108 I literally flew all the way back here to be in my own damn home because I have not really been here the last two weeks.

Speaker 62 You want to be in your space. Yeah, 100%.

Speaker 130 I love loving my home that much.

Speaker 70 Isn't that nice?

Speaker 31 I wish you could see everyone.

Speaker 164 This is my bed and those are my things.

Speaker 7 Like you sing a ballad around your house.

Speaker 43 Oh, wow. I'm going to start writing that.

Speaker 59 It's just about being my room.

Speaker 164 This is my room.

Speaker 164 These are my things.

Speaker 31 I think it could be huge, actually.

Speaker 133 That is our generation's look at this photograph.

Speaker 25 Yeah. Look at this photograph.

Speaker 62 We haven't had a song that reminds us all we're living in a time.

Speaker 104 We haven't had that.

Speaker 68 And we also haven't had a song in a while that is basically expressing the idea.

Speaker 43 Look at this.

Speaker 46 This is my room.

Speaker 164 This is my room. These are my things.

Speaker 137 I don't know why it gets harder every

Speaker 128 higher every now and then.

Speaker 133 You and Patty Harrison need to duet in that.

Speaker 11 I am always saying we need to duet.

Speaker 43 We really need a night of cabaret.

Speaker 94 Oh, what an idea.

Speaker 11 Call it Maddie.

Speaker 94 Maddie.

Speaker 11 M-A-T-T-I. I like it.

Speaker 77 Maddie Rogerson.

Speaker 79 Maddie Rogerson.

Speaker 121 Oh, wow.

Speaker 96 That's really the power couple we've always needed.

Speaker 55 It's me and Patty.

Speaker 47 Period.

Speaker 93 Imagine we stunned in a new photo, leaving like Via Carrada.

Speaker 43 Yeah.

Speaker 43 I see it. Don't you?

Speaker 55 I wonder how many times we'd have to walk in and out of a car before someone would take a picture of us and say that we stunned going into Via Carrada.

Speaker 52 Like how many times going back and forth and back and forth and back and forth?

Speaker 112 I think everyone hires their own pets.

Speaker 43 It doesn't matter. matter.

Speaker 87 You know what?

Speaker 92 Charlie said, everyone else followed it constantly.

Speaker 68 She did. She did say that.
On the remix.

Speaker 77 She called out all the girls.

Speaker 146 Oh, wait, no, that's not in the remix, is it?

Speaker 100 No, I think that's on the regular version of.

Speaker 61 Wait a minute.

Speaker 106 As of this episode release, you can go to the artist presale for the culture awards.

Speaker 90 Wow.

Speaker 90 Use the ticket code Culch.

Speaker 85 C-U-L-T-C-H.

Speaker 48 We have to actually make sure that we etch in stone something, which is that the trophy itself is called the Culch.

Speaker 11 The Culch.

Speaker 110 And we just want to make sure that people know that, like, the Emmy, the Oscar, the Tony, like you can actually think about that.

Speaker 48 physical object and say those are those things.

Speaker 19 The same applies here.

Speaker 54 When you see that bronzed West Delm doorstop over that like cylindrical gold, gold yep over that cylindrical base base that is the cult yes but I guess you would not call the program the cults no no this is the last culture culture awards to LCCAs you can win a culture there yeah I like that for us yeah I like that the statue has its own identity its own name its own way of being referenced separately yes do you think in in in the third like say not next year but maybe the year after we suddenly reveal that the cult has eyes?

Speaker 29 Oh my God.

Speaker 82 And we slowly reveal over time that the cult isn't like an anthropomorphic thing and actually has an inner life.

Speaker 77 And by the time we're done with the culture awards, it's like a fully realized Oscar worthy character.

Speaker 43 I love that.

Speaker 94 I think the cult should absolutely, I think just come to life in some way.

Speaker 66 But that's what you mean by the cult has eyes.

Speaker 74 It doesn't have to have like eyes.

Speaker 29 I think every year we need to show a little bit more more about the culture's personality.

Speaker 56 Interesting.

Speaker 83 To make it by the end, a franchise.

Speaker 50 I'm always thinking in terms of how to make us more money, Bowen.

Speaker 36 Yeah.

Speaker 31 I love that. I am always constantly have my eye on franchising.
This empire.

Speaker 31 Let's make the culture a character. Write the film.

Speaker 88 Sell that shit to, I don't know, whoever's going to beg for it the hardest, Disney. Right.
Right. Ride this to the moon, babe.

Speaker 85 I will say, I know you're you're doing a bit, but it's like, I'm seeing our girl Paige DeSorber out here selling like big t-shirts for sleep or something.

Speaker 67 And I go,

Speaker 80 we would never, we could never do that, could we?

Speaker 112 Like, and I'm saying, like, this is like highest praise and compliments to the sky for the, for like the entrepreneurs and the entrepreneurs who are like putting, pushing product.

Speaker 76 I don't think you and I could like have like.

Speaker 67 a prime drink.

Speaker 38 We don't, we can't, we can't like.

Speaker 81 Speak for yourself. Okay.

Speaker 130 Speak for yourself because I sell, I sell sell big bro and little bro like tank tops.

Speaker 31 You know what I'm saying? That's great.

Speaker 104 It's that is merch, which is different from let me sell you an iPod

Speaker 77 line.

Speaker 104 Product line, something with function.

Speaker 127 Yeah, I don't think you and I are a lifestyle home brand.

Speaker 130 I don't. I don't think you and I are glassware.

Speaker 84 I don't think you and I are big plate.

Speaker 49 I don't think you and I are serving spoon.

Speaker 57 I think you and I are experiences and indulgences.

Speaker 86 We are only going to make our money from using our voices and what we produce with our voice, much like Taylor Swift.

Speaker 61 I'm trying to think if we could have something,

Speaker 131 maybe we would do like a gum.

Speaker 74 If we did Matt and Bowen gum, that's actually really good.

Speaker 131 Can I say that actually might be a good idea?

Speaker 83 Like, are you chewing Matt and Bowen?

Speaker 43 We should do chewing gum.

Speaker 33 Chewing, like chewing out.

Speaker 127 That would actually also be really fun to taste test.

Speaker 31 Gotta go, what's work today?

Speaker 60 We have to go try all the gum.

Speaker 64 That's really good.

Speaker 11 What would our gum taste like, you think?

Speaker 138 This is again something that we have to agree on.

Speaker 25 I think

Speaker 36 what?

Speaker 95 I had an idea.

Speaker 43 Okay.

Speaker 31 It's two different flavors.

Speaker 43 It's split in half.

Speaker 46 That's really good.

Speaker 64 What are those flavors, though?

Speaker 136 We have to think about this.

Speaker 67 Like coconut lime.

Speaker 29 Coconut lime. I love that.

Speaker 65 You know, like just like there's your standard sort of like duos, your iconic duos.

Speaker 66 Strawberry, banana.

Speaker 19 Or you think there's a whole bunch of different flavors.

Speaker 31 Yeah.

Speaker 106 Oh, well, I mean, we can start with, we can start with a very specific one.

Speaker 121 What do you think is our flagship flavor?

Speaker 36 Hmm.

Speaker 65 I think you're like minty fresh.

Speaker 36 Mm-hmm.

Speaker 86 Like broad appeal.

Speaker 112 And I am what? That's.

Speaker 110 I've never had something kinder said to me that my gum brand is mass appeal.

Speaker 43 Thank you.

Speaker 36 Now, you are one of the most massively appealing girls.

Speaker 123 What gum are you?

Speaker 122 I am

Speaker 106 a touch of cream.

Speaker 122 You know, mint and cream.

Speaker 59 A touch of cream.

Speaker 100 There was so much joy coming off of your face when you said that.

Speaker 110 You threw your little gaze to the side and you were like, a touch of cream.

Speaker 25 A touch of cream.

Speaker 31 I think you are a touch of cream.

Speaker 134 Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 40 I had no idea that we were going to create this business today.

Speaker 127 Is it called something?

Speaker 91 Like, is it, what's the name of our gum brand?

Speaker 132 Friendship.

Speaker 55 Friendship gum.

Speaker 108 Friendship gum.

Speaker 106 What brings people together? I'm

Speaker 74 dead ass.

Speaker 72 Gum. More than gum.

Speaker 44 Nothing.

Speaker 111 All right.

Speaker 136 So we're going to get started on this.

Speaker 112 On friendship gum.

Speaker 100 Friendship gum is actually Matt and Bowen's friendship gum is, oh my God.

Speaker 49 Yeah, that's going to be huge.

Speaker 65 Thank you, Paige to Sorbo, by the way, for inspiring us.

Speaker 91 Because I knew we were way more Paige than we were giving ourselves credit for.

Speaker 104 By the way, how should I start Summerhouse?

Speaker 112 Because I'm not super familiar with that universe.

Speaker 89 Do I start from the beginning?

Speaker 66 But it seems like it's a different show entirely in its early season.

Speaker 31 I'm not really the best person to ask because I've almost just like joined.

Speaker 19 Yeah, Esther, because I've just joined Summerhouse in Progress.

Speaker 134 And oh, Anna, okay, okay, all right.

Speaker 65 Anna says season three.

Speaker 90 All right. Love.

Speaker 65 Producer Anna says start season three. Okay.

Speaker 51 Because that's what I'm saying. Because that is when Paige comes in.

Speaker 106 God, she really is that girl.

Speaker 93 So you would say, Anna, that Paige is the unequivocal best thing about the show?

Speaker 36 I would agree.

Speaker 68 Yes. She says yes.
Okay.

Speaker 132 I mean, she's a star.

Speaker 115 Like, what can we say?

Speaker 49 Definitely, like, there is a serotonin hit that happens when she comes

Speaker 70 onto screens.

Speaker 69 Oh, yeah.

Speaker 43 I mean, I'm going to say there's like an, there's like a Hepburn quality there.

Speaker 68 Audrey, I should say.

Speaker 31 Yeah, I mean, there's a little star quality in there.

Speaker 64 A lot of star quality.

Speaker 95 By a little, I mean a lot. Yeah.
I mean, no, no, no.

Speaker 30 I don't mean that.

Speaker 11 I mean, I get it.

Speaker 61 I mean, I think that we are, I mean, I was calling them the Jackie O and JFK,

Speaker 43 the Kennedys of Bravo.

Speaker 36 And then, yeah.

Speaker 133 And then what, and then look what happened.

Speaker 91 In being forced to pick a side, as we all are, whenever there is any breakup.

Speaker 86 And now she's finding her Aristotle, Onassus, as it were.

Speaker 50 He could be anywhere.

Speaker 106 God, isn't it?

Speaker 133 I still can't get over that Aristotle Onassis.

Speaker 140 Well, fucking

Speaker 80 Jackie's sister.

Speaker 104 Can I, and then going, just kidding, I'm marrying her.

Speaker 108 Sorry, go.

Speaker 83 No, these people

Speaker 45 politicians are so sick. They're so sick.

Speaker 130 I actually think I would entertain again watching like a, well, I guess, you know what?

Speaker 57 This is the diplomat. I have to start off the diplomat because it was just a diplomat too.

Speaker 49 I was was saying i'm interested for the first time in a while again in like a like a dc

Speaker 49 um political thriller and apparently the diplomat is really good and i've got my girl

Speaker 29 carrie

Speaker 46 and allison who came together at us uh to snl with kristen it was like a royale diplomat sort of like

Speaker 102 trio and i was like you powerful you girls go off do you know what i actually thought today for some reason because i presented last night at the Gotham Awards and I was thinking about presenting.

Speaker 31 And I remember one of the best like presenting.

Speaker 73 Maya and Kristen?

Speaker 91 No, it was Carrie Russell and Ray Romano did a bit a few years ago at the Golden Globes and they had perfect chemistry.

Speaker 87 And I was like, that's hard because when you're up there doing the presenting thing, you can't really hear.

Speaker 75 Right.

Speaker 29 It's really hard.

Speaker 60 Yeah, it's, it's, it's like, um.

Speaker 31 It's a little dance you do.

Speaker 98 It's a little dance you do, but I'm sure you pulled it off with a plom.

Speaker 103 Oh, I acquitted myself.

Speaker 49 It was really fun.

Speaker 87 It was a really fun evening.

Speaker 135 Like, I like the Gotham Awards.

Speaker 62 It's all new series.

Speaker 91 So that's like the theme there. It's just like, you know, the things nominated are all in first year series.

Speaker 70 And the little boy from Adolescence won, and they were just showing clips from adolescence.

Speaker 110 And I was like, dear God, I was having a heart attack even sitting there watching the town walking clips.

Speaker 93 I know, I know.

Speaker 113 And then

Speaker 59 it was just, it was just crazy.

Speaker 46 But like, I'm like, yeah, that should win i'm sitting there and i'm like for sure the way i feel right now give it that oh give it that totally totally well oh just to get us quickly back on track there might be some confusion about what the taping is so the special taping is versus the show so we are it's not going to be live unfortunately for now or not even unfortunately i think fortunately it's we we have some time to work out the kinks because this is our first time doing this this way

Speaker 73 And we are taping the show on July 17th at the Orpheum in Los Angeles.

Speaker 46 And then on August 5th, it will be on Bravo at 9 p.m.

Speaker 105 Eastern and Pacific.

Speaker 66 And then the next day will be on Peacock.

Speaker 71 So that is the brass tacks.

Speaker 52 Go for the tickets now.

Speaker 64 Use the code word cult.

Speaker 87 And then you come in LA July 17th.

Speaker 70 It's on Bravo, August 5th, the next day, Peacock.

Speaker 118 Hopefully immediately.

Speaker 61 I think so.

Speaker 146 I think it's your standard eight hours or six hours from when it airs.

Speaker 60 Did you see the Survivor 50 cast?

Speaker 69 I did.

Speaker 55 What do you think?

Speaker 30 I think

Speaker 66 kind of crazy to bring Kyle back.

Speaker 70 Kind of nuts.

Speaker 31 Yeah, I'm happy for Camilla.

Speaker 106 I am curious to see if Joe switches up his gameplay

Speaker 97 or

Speaker 94 actually like plays the game at all.

Speaker 71 I love Joe.

Speaker 122 I am

Speaker 19 all back from season 48, by the way.

Speaker 85 All back from season 48.

Speaker 18 For those of you

Speaker 79 casually following the news of Survivor 50.

Speaker 140 And there's two yet to be determined, yet to be 19.

Speaker 99 Okay, got it.

Speaker 109 This just reaffirms the idea that I have to actually watch the Mike White season.

Speaker 95 David versus 2019.

Speaker 82 Bro, we started it the day after you left in the Pines.

Speaker 31 Aaron and I watched the first episode of season 37, David vs.

Speaker 62 Goliath, which is the season Mike White initially competes on.

Speaker 93 It is a really fun watch.

Speaker 91 And they also brought back Angelina from that season, who's such a blast.

Speaker 127 And this guy christian that was a really good season where multiple people should be brought back season 48 i i don't get bringing anyone back besides camilla to be ml of i feel like we've seen we've literally seen him win kyle and joe just played and i feel like we get joe yeah i was so shocked by a lot of the new era choices but When you think about the old era, like, yeah,

Speaker 50 I'll miss some people, but I was watching Jeff Propes like actually announce the nominees and he did the whole thing of like reading them as if they were votes.

Speaker 23 And I was like,

Speaker 79 it was exciting to watch every name pop up as a longtime fan of the show.

Speaker 31 I'll just miss Jerry.

Speaker 91 Like, that's like a big time, I don't think somebody for me that I'm going to do actually is I don't think somebody

Speaker 79 why they didn't include Jerry Manthe on the season.

Speaker 38 Thrilled for Sari.

Speaker 36 Although I can't imagine she lasts long.

Speaker 93 No, and but I'll, I mean, I'd rather watch her than not.

Speaker 40 People being like, Sari again, I'm like, what?

Speaker 136 You don't want to watch Sari?

Speaker 48 What if she does great?

Speaker 163 Like, you never know.

Speaker 104 No, I, I never, that is not a complaint that you should have about Cere, by the way.

Speaker 80 There's no such thing as too much Sari on your television.

Speaker 127 It's a very on-paper thing to react to Cere's casting like that.

Speaker 82 It's like, oh, you see, she's done it a bunch.

Speaker 136 Yeah, that's because she's always so much fun to watch.

Speaker 43 She's incredible.

Speaker 64 And so easy to root for because she's so good.

Speaker 45 She's so good.

Speaker 114 Ozzy, love.

Speaker 71 I guess we're all disappointed about Carolyn, obviously.

Speaker 52 We needed Carolyn.

Speaker 49 Carolyn was like one of the only genuine stars of the three season.

Speaker 19 I can't believe there was no Shan.

Speaker 91 There was no Ricard.

Speaker 64 There was no Carolyn.

Speaker 53 There was no Jesse.

Speaker 91 There was no Carla.

Speaker 59 There was no Cassidy.

Speaker 82 There was no, I mean, there are so many people that had narratives to go into this.

Speaker 91 Oh, there was other ones too.

Speaker 79 But we are so excited.

Speaker 52 High.

Speaker 74 I love High.

Speaker 82 I would have loved to have seen him.

Speaker 60 But it's going to be great, but it's just like, oh, there were so many other, like almost all of the new era people I would have picked weren't in there.

Speaker 88 And no one from the 20s.

Speaker 46 No one from the 20s.

Speaker 101 Abby Maria needed another chance.

Speaker 148 Anyway,

Speaker 31 they're just scared of good TV.

Speaker 29 Well, they don't put Abby Maria on Survivor.

Speaker 52 It's just because sometimes, and this is just, I'm just going to pull the curtain back.

Speaker 111 Sometimes the networks are scared to be too good.

Speaker 51 They don't want us eating that well. Right.

Speaker 87 Because if you eat well, you get satiated.

Speaker 124 You need a break.

Speaker 49 Like they need to, they don't want to give us Abi Maria because they know they would give us television and we could walk away.

Speaker 94 Right.

Speaker 112 That you would, you would be feasting on Abby Maria.

Speaker 77 So well. Yeah.

Speaker 104 I'm not familiar with her season.

Speaker 86 I can't get over that her name is Abby Maria.

Speaker 91 She was basically a demon and played the game as one of the, like, she played like a chaos agent.

Speaker 60 Like she, she just like really

Speaker 77 was unbearable on purpose as a strategy.

Speaker 61 Yeah.

Speaker 19 And she did well because a lot of those people are like, bring them to the end they're not gonna win no one's gonna vote for them yeah but then in the back of your mind you're like but if they can argue it as a strategy like i pretended to be the most unsavory person so they get all the ends here yeah it's kind of genius that's how i would play I've actually tried to play like that in the survivor quarantine.

Speaker 43 Oh, right.

Speaker 50 And it's look where it got you.

Speaker 29 I mean, between Abby Maria and

Speaker 66 what I, what I do love about Kyle and Camilla is I love when people go, survivor is a performance.

Speaker 69 Let's perform.

Speaker 52 Yes, I love that. I love acting on survivor.

Speaker 55 And Camilla was one of the greats.

Speaker 43 Camilla was a great actor.

Speaker 60 And you know what I always look forward to?

Speaker 100 The Bo and Yang Survivor contestant endorsement.

Speaker 100 You posted a picture of Camilla and you said it's her.

Speaker 78 What is there to talk about?

Speaker 80 I think we can keep this week short.

Speaker 57 I don't know that there is much more to talk about.

Speaker 31 So this might be short one.

Speaker 50 And let's just launch into I Don't Think So, honey. Yeah.

Speaker 112 So we've gotten a pre we've gotten a preview from both of ours.

Speaker 60 I've explicitly said what mine is.

Speaker 53 You have sort of like

Speaker 11 kicking, you know, poked at the air around.

Speaker 110 This is I don't think so, honey.

Speaker 57 It's our 60-second segment where we take exactly that amount of time to rant, rail, and more against something in culture that needs some

Speaker 61 put in its place.

Speaker 51 And here we go.

Speaker 163 I'm ready.

Speaker 78 I'm ready for them.

Speaker 43 Okay, this is Matt Rogers.

Speaker 50 I don't think so, honey.

Speaker 112 It's time starts now.

Speaker 57 I don't think so, honey, that you're not going to put Jerry Manthe on the season 50 of Survivor.

Speaker 135 You're an idiot.

Speaker 58 You guys are wacko.

Speaker 170 And also, if you weren't going to put her on, why did she feel like she was close enough that that was her reaction on Instagram?

Speaker 154 She's staring into the desert sky, sitting on a rock,

Speaker 59 wordlessly processing.

Speaker 170 And that is not how I want to see Jerry Manthe. I want to see Jerry Manthe straddling like like a crocodile in the Australian outback.

Speaker 54 And by crocodile, I dirty her feelings and urges towards Kobe Donaldson.

Speaker 169 And speaking of Kobe Donaldson, I'm not excited about him without Jerry.

Speaker 63 How could you not take the opportunity to follow that narrative through of putting Jerry and Kobe together?

Speaker 124 I know they tried in Heroes versus Villains, but you could have really seen it through.

Speaker 87 That is one of the reasons initially why it was a television phenomenon because of those characters.

Speaker 61 You had the reason to bring them back and you didn't, you fool.

Speaker 59 You let her stare at the sky in the desert, upset and hurt.

Speaker 128 I don't think so, honey.

Speaker 86 That's one minute. I mistakenly said she was on a beach in that video.

Speaker 86 I apologize.

Speaker 77 Oh, another thing.

Speaker 84 Amanda, China.

Speaker 36 Oh, okay.

Speaker 57 So here's my thing with Amanda.

Speaker 43 What happened there?

Speaker 74 What happened there?

Speaker 40 Because apparently she was going to do it.

Speaker 87 And then all of a sudden, Ozzy was on.

Speaker 19 So she couldn't do it.

Speaker 52 And my question is, why is that the case?

Speaker 57 And I'm not, I don't want to make any like assumptions, but I'm like, why is it so weird that they can't do the show together, if that's true?

Speaker 29 Like, I don't like that.

Speaker 87 Like, cause we wanted to see Amanda bad.

Speaker 52 And like, I have a hard time like thinking that she would allow something like that to stop her from doing it unless it was like a thing.

Speaker 31 But was she expressing publicly that she was going to do it?

Speaker 129 What I heard was that they had locked her down.

Speaker 31 I mean, this is all conjecture.

Speaker 103 It's all conjecture.

Speaker 83 But for some reason, the rumor has taken shape online that they had her for the show.

Speaker 64 And then she was like made aware that Ozzie was doing it.

Speaker 11 Again, I could be,

Speaker 60 I'm just, it's just conjecture, but for some reason, she wanted to drop out or something or didn't want to do it with Ozzie.

Speaker 7 And now we have Ozzie and not Amanda.

Speaker 51 When ideally, I would have loved to see them both, but both would have been.

Speaker 123 I just, I don't love that, that that is the case if that happened.

Speaker 43 Well, don't love.

Speaker 46 Don't love. I have something I don't love.

Speaker 82 I know. It's probably your I don't think so honey, right?

Speaker 36 Yeah.

Speaker 36 Okay.

Speaker 139 So I'm reaching over for my phone.

Speaker 56 I'm putting the screen on.

Speaker 56 I'm getting up the little lap.

Speaker 110 I'm pushing the button that put 60 seconds on the clock.

Speaker 43 Are you ready?

Speaker 36 I'm ready.

Speaker 88 Bo and Yangs. I don't think so, honey.

Speaker 70 Time starts. Yeah.

Speaker 76 I don't think so, honey.

Speaker 65 Travel.

Speaker 90 I don't want to leave my house.

Speaker 66 Do I sound like I might be depressed?

Speaker 90 Have Matt and I switched roles this year in our summer journeys?

Speaker 46 It's possible. No, I think I'm okay.

Speaker 133 I think I'm just tired from all the travel that I've been doing.

Speaker 108 And

Speaker 105 nothing sounds more appealing to me than to stay in.

Speaker 104 And at at this point in my life, if it's not Japan, Asia,

Speaker 104 if I'm somewhere, if I'm in a city besides New York,

Speaker 21 if you find me in a city besides New York that is not Japan in Japan, then I'm there against my will.

Speaker 73 Then I'm there in

Speaker 106 service of something else.

Speaker 80 And I'm happy to be there for something.

Speaker 45 15th.

Speaker 108 I think if I just had my brothers,

Speaker 68 then the drothers would be in New York City, much like how Matt's Porg is in Los Angeles.

Speaker 73 My drothers are here.

Speaker 160 And I really, really

Speaker 66 like to sit on my couch.

Speaker 27 More to come in Matt's new single, This Is My Room.

Speaker 62 And that's one minute.

Speaker 29 This is my room.

Speaker 43 I don't know why I'm singing it in this way.

Speaker 60 For some reason, I just feel this.

Speaker 51 It doesn't matter.

Speaker 42 This is my room.

Speaker 111 I feel like I need to give it gut, you know, because I feel like it really goes to a place.

Speaker 54 Listen, Bo, here's what what I think we're going to do.

Speaker 135 We're going to take things off the schedule for you.

Speaker 19 I would be willing to sit with you and go through the calendar and we'll look at the times when you're traveling and we can find ways to A, get out of it, B, take it off the schedules, and more.

Speaker 32 You don't have to do any of that.

Speaker 87 Yes, because someone's got to do it. You need like someone, like, for example, Melissa came over here and looked at my closet.

Speaker 61 And just having someone else literally with me, going through every piece of clothes, like and being like, No, yes, no, never.

Speaker 44 Oh my god, what even is this?

Speaker 54 Why is it taking up space?

Speaker 60 You need that for your, you need that for your schedule.

Speaker 102 I think, I really think you do.

Speaker 117 I think you need an outside

Speaker 82 person to look at your things.

Speaker 44 Well, this has been a short and sweet

Speaker 133 to quote Sabrina Carpenter album episode.

Speaker 52 Oh my gosh, she's coming out with new music by the end of this week.

Speaker 112 Manchild.

Speaker 6 Manchild.

Speaker 70 Oh, I hope she really

Speaker 54 hurts someone back because clearly someone hurt her.

Speaker 74 I just hope she hurts them back.

Speaker 47 She will.

Speaker 51 She always has her way. We support her.

Speaker 63 It's not that I hope she hurts them back.

Speaker 43 It's that I hope she expresses herself

Speaker 31 in a cathartic way.

Speaker 127 And if someone else's feelings are hurt by it, whatever.

Speaker 126 That's art.

Speaker 70 That's pop art.

Speaker 109 That's cause and effect, babe.

Speaker 55 We are living, loving,

Speaker 62 and

Speaker 62 expressing gratitude.

Speaker 88 It's all the readers, Kay, Publis, Finalists, and Kyle's, and more.

Speaker 88 We end every episode with a song.

Speaker 58 Look at this photograph.

Speaker 52 To listen to that, you got to listen to Nickelback. Sorry.

Speaker 123 I know, I know.

Speaker 136 No, what must have been a funny photo.

Speaker 51 What do you think was in the photo?

Speaker 31 A hilarious pic, by the way.

Speaker 67 Probably a meme.

Speaker 82 I actually literally do see in my mind's eye what was in that photo.

Speaker 83 And it is guys, for some reason, they're

Speaker 63 standing around.

Speaker 87 It's like right by a driveway.

Speaker 64 They're standing at like a, it's in the front yard.

Speaker 82 It's by a driveway.

Speaker 18 And there's a, like a beer pong table.

Speaker 52 And in the back, you see a trampoline.

Speaker 48 And it's a bunch of guys with their arms around each other, like probably five, six guys all arranged around this beer pong table.

Speaker 83 And in the back, you see a trampoline.

Speaker 91 I don't know why, but that is the picture in my mind's eye when I say, look at this photograph.

Speaker 83 Like, sort of like, take me back to God's country, you know?

Speaker 31 No, I understand take me back to God's country.

Speaker 108 I don't totally understand.

Speaker 50 Every time I look at this photo, it makes me laugh.

Speaker 76 But it's not, it doesn't sound like a funny photo.

Speaker 147 Well, Bowen, you don't even know how funny the people in the photo were.

Speaker 87 Maybe the guys in the picture, while maybe it's not a funny photo, it's just he's maybe one of the people.

Speaker 85 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 87 Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 82 Like, if you look at a photo of and Mitch Hedberg is in it, and I gotta laugh.

Speaker 52 You're like, you're You're like, every time this makes me laugh.

Speaker 110 You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 157 Totally. Okay, bye.

Speaker 42 Look at this colour.

Speaker 36 Bye.
