Speaker 51 oh i see my i oh my bow and look over there wow is that culture yes goodness wow last culture is

Speaker 60 ding dung last culture is calling oh my god take two take two so what people will never know is that this is some bts we had to do it again we had to take the intro again but one had some adjustments to make you keep me and the listeners honest well we were saying this is rarefied air.

Speaker 67 We were back on our tech shit.

Speaker 17 On our tech shit, which is challenging me.

Speaker 71 I don't know if it's because I had to buy a new podcast mic at an Argos, which is a British chain of, I guess, like electronic stores.

Speaker 49 It's like, um, gosh, it's a step below a Best Buy, but it's above.

Speaker 75 I hate it already.

Speaker 64 Can I say, I went into a Best Buy recently.

Speaker 76 What did it give?

Speaker 49 No.

Speaker 68 All my love to Best Buy because I have been public in in the past about my coming of age at Best Buys.

Speaker 64 Yes.

Speaker 70 And I don't want to mourn, you know.

Speaker 78 Something's still here.

Speaker 70 Some well, I don't want to mourn something that is like literally a corporate chain.

Speaker 80 Well, of course.

Speaker 71 There's no sentimentality there.

Speaker 81 And I don't forgive.

Speaker 82 No, this is a human moment of you just

Speaker 36 remembering Best Buy as it was.

Speaker 85 You're allowed to grieve.

Speaker 63 Best Buy was flop.

Speaker 49 Best Buy was flop in the last week that I went.

Speaker 86 What exactly happened?

Speaker 66 And let's keep the service out of it. Let's not say anyone did a bad job.

Speaker 89 But what was it at Best Buy?

Speaker 70 Was not a service issue.

Speaker 51 It was

Speaker 20 floor plan layout issue.

Speaker 66 And I know this really gets to you.

Speaker 63 Do you know what I mean?

Speaker 70 It's like, get in line.

Speaker 65 Okay, sure. Where, where is that?

Speaker 56 Where is that? Over there. Over there.

Speaker 74 I go to where the person points.

Speaker 58 I don't see any kind of stanchion or indicator that this is where the line.

Speaker 76 Like you were at C.

Speaker 19 You really care about this too.

Speaker 92 This is cube experience.

Speaker 70 This is all about sort of crowd control and efficiency in terms of like moving people.

Speaker 65 This is one of society's great challenges and puzzles that constantly sort of reinvents itself.

Speaker 90 And we have not caught up to the solution.

Speaker 95 No, if we can't figure this out, we're going to need congestion pricing for walking around.

Speaker 98 And I don't think anyone wants that.

Speaker 34 We're going to have to say, you want to get in here to this Best Buy?

Speaker 100 60 cents.

Speaker 36 60 cents.

Speaker 92 A cover?

Speaker 82 It's just, it's congestion pricing, bro.

Speaker 66 We need less people in there.

Speaker 101 So 60 cents to get into the best buy.

Speaker 49 You attacks.

Speaker 100 Would be attacks on foot.

Speaker 94 Attacks on feet.

Speaker 102 Can you imagine, Bo?

Speaker 58 My God.

Speaker 103 That's Tyler Vepp, attacks on feet.

Speaker 104 Attacks on feet.

Speaker 63 Can I tell you, you're speaking of orienting yourself?

Speaker 36 That's really what this is about.

Speaker 88 You are trying to orient.

Speaker 57 And I am literally in my new space orienting.

Speaker 66 So this is the first ever Lost Culture recording from my apartment.

Speaker 49 And I literally was looking around just now and i said i can't wait for bowen and i to join in hands here and be tactile and record an episode of lost cult from here my new home how are you feeling first of all let's just say matt rogers

Speaker 114 what homeowner oh i joined my sister then congratulations honestly yeah thank you it feels it feels really nice and it's in it's in an area i always if you had told me in college like oh you'll get an apartment there i'd been like off there's no way so i'm like loving the area i'm in out of anybody I know, you are living the Carrie Bradshaw, Serena Vander Woodson fantasy, like New York girl, honey.

Speaker 78 I listen, those are some big shoes to fill.

Speaker 116 Okay,

Speaker 117 so I don't take that lightly at all.

Speaker 118 Um, both my neighbors are vibes, both my new vapors are like vapors.

Speaker 119 I said, guys, I did a little reefer in my new apartment, so understand that's where we're at.

Speaker 118 Both my neighbors with an N

Speaker 49 are vibes.

Speaker 118 I love vapors, Vapors, my vibey neighbors, my vapors.

Speaker 54 Wait, what's the vibe?

Speaker 43 Just some vibe.

Speaker 48 Something good.

Speaker 48 Something rare.

Speaker 59 Okay, so the vibe is they're both

Speaker 105 straight, but horny little vibes in their own way.

Speaker 118 And I am doing this ASMR style because I actually literally don't know if they can hear me clear as a bell or not, Bo.

Speaker 119 I swear to God.

Speaker 63 So I will be on the conservative side in terms of how much I give vocally.

Speaker 81 Okay.

Speaker 49 Okay.

Speaker 63 To my right, my neighbor to my right, like 60 years old always walking around either shirtless or with a crisp white crewneck tea so like like must be bleaching the out of what i would imagine are 20 white teas in there it's one or the other uniform white curly hair a vibe today he says to me i'm having an amazing day i worked out and i got a juice perfect day and i'm like sir is this a portal into the future you like him to say i like him would be an understatement.

Speaker 80 I'm interested.

Speaker 58 So, then to my left, we have this other gentleman, much younger,

Speaker 58 young professional, black hair.

Speaker 86 Is it too long?

Speaker 122 Maybe, but he's wearing it.

Speaker 49 He's rocking it. I know he's a vibe because the other day, Melissa came here to visit me and she looks at the elevator and he's chatting her up.

Speaker 48 And that's when I say, Hi, I live here now.

Speaker 58 This is my friend Melissa.

Speaker 119 He's like, Oh, we met.

Speaker 43 I have to come over and bring you a cup of sugar.

Speaker 118 I say, Sir, get your cup, fill it to the brim with sugar and get on over here.

Speaker 78 I'm interested.

Speaker 114 My neighbors are vapors.

Speaker 118 They're vibey neighbors.

Speaker 70 How do you know straight? How do you know straight?

Speaker 64 I don't think my gay dar is good.

Speaker 58 I think my straight dar is perfect.

Speaker 85 Does that make sense?

Speaker 65 Yes, but.

Speaker 70 Sometimes it's horseshoe theory and that the radar,

Speaker 74 it just loops.

Speaker 65 It just loops to gay.

Speaker 64 This could be the start of something good.

Speaker 43 Something rare.

Speaker 101 Wow. Oh my God.

Speaker 48 It's amazing that Lost Culture has a new single, something good.

Speaker 49 Something rare.

Speaker 122 Is this just, did I somehow write the song from the new wicked for good?

Speaker 17 Oh, are you implying that you are working on the project?

Speaker 116 Because it's possible.

Speaker 113 What if I heavily implicated that again and again and again for months?

Speaker 108 And then everyone found out it wasn't true. Not even a thing.
No one ever even asked me.

Speaker 62 Like, but, but I was here and I was like, there might be something coming with Wicked for Good, maybe a song that I wrote, and then it never happened.

Speaker 70 That would be something good, something great.

Speaker 63 This is the thing.

Speaker 70 Why can't the rumor mail ever work in our favor?

Speaker 50 How come?

Speaker 49 You know what I mean?

Speaker 82 It's never like, oh, did you hear about Boen Yang's Oscar buzz for the new?

Speaker 55 Like, it's never

Speaker 70 for overcompensating. He's up for an Oscar.

Speaker 125 By the way, you ran up to Benny.

Speaker 117 Oh, my God. Congrats to everyone

Speaker 110 involved with overcompensating.

Speaker 73 Wow, wow.

Speaker 114 That's so fun to see it take off like that.

Speaker 82 And also, that was a really fun, good day.

Speaker 63 Great vibes.

Speaker 96 It could not happen to a nicer, cooler, funnier, more giving person than Benito.

Speaker 119 Yeah.

Speaker 69 And shout out to Desiree Acavan, who directed our episode and directed many of the episodes.

Speaker 73 It was a fun, great day in Toronto, a city I love.

Speaker 75 Period.

Speaker 72 Oh, see, that's where you go to sort of.

Speaker 84 Toronto is where you go to breathe again.

Speaker 101 Shall we to Toronto soon?

Speaker 74 It'll be the only place to breathe soon.

Speaker 64 My girl, sorry to flaunt our real estate selves, but the only place I'm looking, I'm not looking at vacation homes or beach homes or, you know.

Speaker 74 Pieta terrestrials anywhere else.

Speaker 70 The next place I am thinking about is somewhere in Ontario because that is the safest place from, sorry, climate disaster.

Speaker 68 And we have to bring it up on the podcast.

Speaker 82 In the words of Camille, now we said it.

Speaker 90 Now we said it.

Speaker 82 And I say that with the most serious voice I have used on this podcast ever.

Speaker 49 You know what I'm thinking about? We said it.

Speaker 73 I was thinking about Kyle, one of the few Kyle Richards moments that I love.

Speaker 130 You're such a fucking liar, Camille.

Speaker 47 Can I tell you something?

Speaker 85 Don't be disrespectful towards Kyle.

Speaker 132 And

Speaker 76 you've been heavily sort of leaning on it with Kyle over the past few episodes and just because we've had guests I haven't been able to clock you because you know what you're nasty towards Kyle and Kyle is me when I look in the mirror

Speaker 63 can I tell you something

Speaker 70 better than Kyle you're you're redna

Speaker 59 I love you lord I love you lord

Speaker 49 and I take that from you graciously but let me just say something but why the quarrel why this quarrel Why the quarrel you listen Kyle might be going through a rough couple seasons but there have been high highs with Kyle.

Speaker 96 We are all Kyle, and every word of that sentence is capitalized when you write it out later.

Speaker 63 It's actually rule of culture number six.

Speaker 110 We are Kyle.

Speaker 130 Every word of that sentence is capitalized. Yes.

Speaker 66 And I'm just saying, like, just because Kyle, you know, gets that mealy mouth thing that you did the impression of on the podcast, and she talks like this when she's crying.

Speaker 43 It's come on.

Speaker 49 It's iconic.

Speaker 92 She's so like, such a little stamp.

Speaker 49 For lack of a better word.

Speaker 49 Oh, you're nasty, bow.

Speaker 103 Oh, shush.

Speaker 116 Oh, you're shush.

Speaker 70 So angry, man.

Speaker 15 You are.

Speaker 50 You are.

Speaker 105 Wait, what were we talking about that we started this?

Speaker 73 I'm so sorry.

Speaker 17 Toronto.

Speaker 102 Toronto.

Speaker 64 Climate change. Climate change.
Climate change.

Speaker 36 Oh, yeah. Climate change.

Speaker 138 Wait. So why is it the safest?

Speaker 70 Safe from earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, like fires.

Speaker 64 Says the maps, says the map overlays on North America.

Speaker 72 The coasts are going to be like underwater,

Speaker 70 the middle of the country, and you know, a lot of fire hazard, tornado risks in the middle of the country, earthquakes in the mountainous areas.

Speaker 139 Like Ontario is safe and it's safe, people.

Speaker 122 You're saying that neither the Republicans or the Democrats are going to save us?

Speaker 80 Hopefully,

Speaker 49 hopefully, one of them rises up by the name of to say it, Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Speaker 73 I love that girl.

Speaker 107 My girl.

Speaker 50 President Green.

Speaker 93 President Greene.

Speaker 117 Girl.

Speaker 116 Cut this out. Cut this out.

Speaker 50 Hold on.

Speaker 49 Cut that out.

Speaker 85 I would love if they were like, wow, in a shocking move, Lost Coach endorses Marjorie Taylor Greene far ahead of the 2028 race.

Speaker 66 That is how dumb some of the like coverage has been out there.

Speaker 86 Like it's what you do.

Speaker 96 So like I'm watching so much of it right now because of this Biden book.

Speaker 48 Like I'm back on watching the news again.

Speaker 70 No, man, it's a bad thing.

Speaker 89 No, I'm just like, it's just wild because, well, the whole, it's a rabbit hole.

Speaker 144 I don't really want to get into, but like some of the media coverage, I'm just like, wow.

Speaker 62 How can we watch anything now?

Speaker 61 when then it wasn't truthful.

Speaker 119 Okay.

Speaker 89 Anyway, this, this could be a worm.

Speaker 74 Are you about to I don't think so honey Drake Tapper?

Speaker 36 It's not I don't think so honey Drake Tapper because I think that probably what's in that I believe everything in that book.

Speaker 111 I believe everything in it, but it's just like laughable to me that it comes from him, who was a part of being like, that's ridiculous about it.

Speaker 142 I don't know if he's taking accountability for that.

Speaker 113 Maybe he has, maybe he hasn't.

Speaker 111 It's just like when I hear it's coming from him, that's my immediate response.

Speaker 115 It's like, really?

Speaker 75 Because last I checked, it was no big deal how old he was for years coming from y'all.

Speaker 84 So it's just like, I don't know.

Speaker 16 I don't know.

Speaker 81 Wow. tough stuff.

Speaker 127 Tough stuff. Are you, is this about, is this going to be a weed forward summer for you?

Speaker 70 Because I need to pick one thing and stick with it.

Speaker 133 I go on that long tirade about like, you know, it's, it's interesting, right?

Speaker 106 Like me about the media.

Speaker 94 Like, I sound so fucking stupid.

Speaker 36 And you just go, no, no, and you just go, so it's going to be a weeds forward summer for you, huh?

Speaker 50 No, you're 100% right.

Speaker 103 It's so sad.

Speaker 77 I'm, I'm, I'm really ostrich mode over here, like head in the sand.

Speaker 70 And like, I don't know what what else to do.

Speaker 88 What do you mean about like all of it?

Speaker 71 Talking to people at work and

Speaker 69 this one writer, I won't say his name, not that this is like damning or anything, but he has this professor in college who like up until very recently has been like, everybody like stop freaking out over AI.

Speaker 70 Like, it's not, there's something about the human touch and the human sort of like layer on things that like humanity will like abide by and like we will seek out as a culture and a society.

Speaker 70 And then something, something turned recently.

Speaker 68 I don't know what it was, but then this writer said that this professor is finally now like writing articles where he's like, I get no joy from eating meals or talking to my children anymore because we're doomed.

Speaker 54 Jesus.

Speaker 70 And you're too, no, and we can't be having this conversation because you're stoned.

Speaker 82 No, no, no. We literally can't.

Speaker 125 I have to tell you something.

Speaker 77 And I also don't know anything.

Speaker 70 I cannot substantiate any of what I'm saying with like actual, with in-depth knowledge.

Speaker 111 Maybe it's just that I'm getting older or that this stuff is becoming so much more common now, like the quote-unquote end of the world talk.

Speaker 123 It used to terrify me, the concept of like the apocalypse, like nuclear war.

Speaker 85 Like, I remember when I was a kid, you ever have those like irrational fears when you're a kid?

Speaker 137 Like, a lot of kids are obsessed with death.

Speaker 108 My thing for a little bit of a time there, and I honestly think it was around like the Iraq war when they started to say weapons of mass destruction.

Speaker 79 I became so obsessed with that idea that I would actually be low grade depressed.

Speaker 104 Like now, though, maybe it's just, like I said, getting older, it's just that this stuff is kind of like piecemealed or not piecemeal, but like very everyday to talk about.

Speaker 66 It doesn't bother me.

Speaker 112 I had my friend send me that book, Nuclear War.

Speaker 122 Yeah, Chloe, my friend sent it to me.

Speaker 111 And I was just like, yeah, just send it to me.

Speaker 50 And now it's, I got home one day, I looked down, I saw the words nuclear war in my home.

Speaker 112 And I was kind of unfazed.

Speaker 93 And I was like, well, I've come a long way.

Speaker 135 This doesn't terrify me, the thought of it anymore, whether that's good or bad, I don't know.

Speaker 96 But like, I'm willing to engage in the idea

Speaker 78 for some reason.

Speaker 19 But this is the thing. Being a prepper is a choice.

Speaker 89 A hundred.

Speaker 136 Right. Is it the right choice?

Speaker 82 Here's, but

Speaker 70 yes, this is what I'm asking. Like, I don't know what, what choice I'm going to make or I'm going to make.

Speaker 89 Do you have a go bag of any kind?

Speaker 110 No.

Speaker 64 Me neither. And I think we know people that do.

Speaker 19 Yes, we do.

Speaker 70 We certainly do.

Speaker 43 And I think we've

Speaker 71 do we should we start being those people?

Speaker 71 Should we be,

Speaker 68 we need to, we need to talk to your friend, to our friend, Chloe,

Speaker 16 because we love her.

Speaker 49 Yeah. A vaber.
If we ever have,

Speaker 60 if this person was my neighbor, it would be a vaber, the house.

Speaker 127 She would be such a, she is such a vapor.

Speaker 67 She is, I love everything about Chloe.

Speaker 108 No, an icon, a walking icon.

Speaker 64 A walking icon.

Speaker 70 When I found out that she was a prepper, I went, well, now I should start taking this seriously. My version of prepping is getting a a house in Ontario for my friends.

Speaker 57 You know, you always are being like, guys, let's get a house.

Speaker 70 I know. What's with that?

Speaker 82 Because someone has to be the person that's like, we're going on vacation.

Speaker 54 Somebody has to.

Speaker 106 Somebody has to be the person that's like, ultimately in a group of friends, you do need those people that are proactive.

Speaker 26 I've tried to become one over the past couple of years, partly because I don't want you soldiering all of it, because I noticed that you do do a lot of it.

Speaker 68 You're so kind to me.

Speaker 16 You are.

Speaker 70 i try to be wait are you going to fire island this weekend or no i'm going to go i'm going to i fly back in friday morning and i might i have to like take a passport photo and then i'm going to maybe catch the night fairy in and then leave saturday night okay let me know i'll be there Is Friday night underwear party?

Speaker 36 We should know this.

Speaker 66 Friday night is underwear party. It's just famously, it's Saturday night in the Fire Island film because that's what it needed to be for the script.

Speaker 55 And that is what we call movie magic.

Speaker 86 And sometimes you need to make things a little different than you guys than real life.

Speaker 49 Okay.

Speaker 106 Also, I'm going to gag you.

Speaker 55 That wasn't even the real Ice Palace.

Speaker 147 Movie magic.

Speaker 77 Movie magic.

Speaker 70 It was on a soundstage in Brownsville, Brooklyn.

Speaker 117 Wow.

Speaker 81 Wow.

Speaker 66 Listen, here's the thing, too, about us being around at Fire Island.

Speaker 62 You know what I'm having this summer?

Speaker 49 What? Say hi, Summer.

Speaker 100 Let's say hi.

Speaker 64 I'm interested.

Speaker 57 You know, this is the first time in like two years I'm not like depressed.

Speaker 49 And so I'm always happy.

Speaker 43 I'm not sure. I'm just think a fun summer.
Yeah.

Speaker 70 Matt, it never, and I'm not saying that like your, your moments of depression in the summer were nonsensical. I just, to me, it never made sense that you hated summer so much.

Speaker 70 I understood it, but it didn't make sense.

Speaker 19 Does that, does that, does that, does that make sense?

Speaker 92 Yep.

Speaker 93 It's to quote our friend Celeste M.

Speaker 81 I don't,

Speaker 19 I do believe what you were saying.

Speaker 55 I believe you're telling the truth, but I don't believe what you're saying is true.

Speaker 119 Yeah, no, I think, I think that I was just like, and I, here's the thing, like when you're depressed, it's just no, of course.

Speaker 148 You're always looking for a reason to opt out of things. And so I just was.

Speaker 147 So this is the first summer I've had in like two years where I'm not going to be depressed.

Speaker 95 And I'm very excited about it.

Speaker 57 And I can't believe it was like a year ago around now.

Speaker 96 I was crying on this podcast about my social anxiety.

Speaker 82 I feel so turned around and happy.

Speaker 47 Like, I love excited to have a good summer.

Speaker 89 Let's have a good one.

Speaker 124 But also, if it doesn't end up being a good one for whatever reason, reason, if you have a home where you're, it's okay.

Speaker 106 I'm not setting any bars.

Speaker 57 I'm just saying when my intention is to like have a fun this summer and not be, you know, just not be a drag.

Speaker 90 No, and it's okay to be a drag.

Speaker 124 And if you're out there right now, Readers, Katie's, Kyle's, Publicist, Finalist, and you're a drag, that's okay.

Speaker 49 Yeah.

Speaker 138 But also if you are the drag, no, it's okay to go home.

Speaker 113 You know what I mean?

Speaker 105 You don't need to, like, I feel like we were on one vacation in particular last summer and I hit a drag wall and I wish I had just gone home.

Speaker 151 Honestly, I wish for everyone's sake I had just gone home and it wouldn't have been a thing of like, oh, he bailed on the vacation.

Speaker 36 But I just think in thinking about everyone else's energy, like it's okay to sometimes to just take yourself out of stuff.

Speaker 49 You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 140 I love going home early on a vacation.

Speaker 106 Well, if you feel like you have to, yeah.

Speaker 77 Exactly.

Speaker 175 It's Wi-Fi that keeps your whole home connected so you can actually enjoy the holiday magic chaos free.

Speaker 176 The best present of all.

Speaker 11 Let me paint a picture for you.

Speaker 154 A holiday movie marathon is streaming in the living room.

Speaker 14 Your kid is video chatting their friends from their tablet and your partner is shopping for too many gifts and cinnamon candles.

Speaker 131 Ah!

Speaker 160 Not this season, not with Xfinity Wi-Fi.

Speaker 177 With Xfinity, you can boost the Wi-Fi to your device only.

Speaker 23 So when you go to upload 200 photos of that cat in a cute little Santa hat, you won't see that dreaded failed to upload message.

Speaker 21 Not this season, not with Xfinity Wi-Fi.

Speaker 180 And what if you had a way to make sure family time during the holidays had zero distractions?

Speaker 28 With Xfinity Wi-Fi, you can pause the kids' Wi-Fi and enjoy those special moments together.

Speaker 154 And if you're wondering what other parental instincts your Wi-Fi has during this busy season, Xfinity protects your kids when they're online so you know they're safe, even if you're busy making cocoa or taste testing cookies.

Speaker 168 What?

Speaker 21 Someone has to make sure there's exactly the same amount of chocolate chips in each cookie.

Speaker 182 And what if your Wi-Fi could proactively fix issues before they even happen?

Speaker 176 Well, that's exactly what Xfinity Wi-Fi does.

Speaker 141 Like the friend who shows up with extra wrapping paper, bows, and tape before you even realize you're out.

Speaker 30 Because let's be honest, you never buy enough.

Speaker 15 Bottom line, Xfinity Wi-Fi isn't just smart, it's brilliant.

Speaker 3 And during the holidays, that brilliance, that's a gift.

Speaker 18 Xfinity, imagine that.

Speaker 41 Who decides what you can do?

Speaker 44 Who gets to decide what you're capable of?

Speaker 185 Your boss? Your friends?

Speaker 186 Some stranger on the internet?

Speaker 181 No, no, and absolutely no.

Speaker 187 You decide.

Speaker 166 Only you.

Speaker 168 Ford shares that belief.

Speaker 188 It's like engineered into their vehicles.

Speaker 13 An F-150 is all steel, sweat, and dreams.

Speaker 52 Right? Mm-hmm.

Speaker 6 A Ford Bronco is built for adventure, but you've got to get behind the wheel.

Speaker 186 Can you?

Speaker 20 Yeah, you can.

Speaker 8 But you have to first.

Speaker 13 You have to.

Speaker 15 And a Mustang?

Speaker 2 The Mustang that conquers curves.

Speaker 128 You are more capable than you know.

Speaker 8 Like, for example, I never thought I could parallel park.

Speaker 34 I just thought it wasn't something that was going to happen for me in my life.

Speaker 179 And not everyone gets to have every experience, you know.

Speaker 189 But then, suddenly, I did a parallel park and I thought, wow, I'm gonna apply to Harvard. I didn't get in, but I did parallel park.

Speaker 192 Sometimes you just need to push.

Speaker 157 What is it that they say?

Speaker 7 Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right.

Speaker 13 Ready, set

Speaker 117 Ford.

Speaker 70 Speaking of of fun summers,

Speaker 68 we kicked ours off in style.

Speaker 110 Oh my God.

Speaker 47 Isn't it wonderful what happened?

Speaker 138 They crowned us the princes of Celestial Park and we got to walk the blue carpet at the fucking opening of Epic Universe.

Speaker 104 I said my eight-year-old self was dying

Speaker 76 gorgeous.

Speaker 69 I was so happy. I was so happy for both of us.

Speaker 77 I was so happy for you.

Speaker 14 I kept telling you, you made it.

Speaker 65 Like we're here

Speaker 136 like you talked about this for so long i am so happy the people that you and i got to bring perfect vibes like it was just it was so great like universal orlando thank you for that that was really they treated us so forgetable and we have we did some fun um content for them we did this co-stars

Speaker 55 um uh

Speaker 114 yeah it's we rode the stardust racers and they filmed us on the damn gopro we were so ill after the second time.

Speaker 58 Holy fuck.

Speaker 89 Yeah, that was tough.

Speaker 95 She's a little demon that's Stardust Racers.

Speaker 74 Well, it was so funny because we did Stardust Racers and then some people in the group hadn't done Velocicoaster at the North Campus.

Speaker 89 Yeah,

Speaker 105 you love calling it the North Campus.

Speaker 70 I love it.

Speaker 3 I, you know, I'm a company man.

Speaker 146 I use the corporate lingo.

Speaker 64 We go to North Campus and.

Speaker 70 Everyone was like, is this worse or better than, is this more intense or less intense than Stardust Racers Racers?

Speaker 67 This is is less.

Speaker 70 And then I guess there was some room for debate on that because they were like, no, that was crazier than Stardust.

Speaker 74 Everyone's like, yes, I understand why it was crazier, but it's smoother. Not to rank, not to compare them against to each other, but I feel like Stardust is, it tosses you in the craziest ways.

Speaker 16 Some of those barrel, are there, are they barrel spins?

Speaker 72 Like, how would you describe those?

Speaker 95 So there's a new element on the Stardust Racers.

Speaker 59 It's called the Celestial Spin, which is it's a duodeling coaster trick where, like, they essentially, it's like a barrel roll around each other.

Speaker 125 So that was really pretty incredible.

Speaker 82 And also, it's like

Speaker 87 probably two or three other inversions.

Speaker 114 I don't know the exact inversion number on that coaster, but one of them, the green one, is known as being a little bit more intense.

Speaker 130 And the yellow one is like supposed to be like a step below it, but not even in terms of intensity.

Speaker 96 We did the green one twice to shoot this thing on the GoPro.

Speaker 61 And my vibe is I only need to do a ride once, really,

Speaker 93 unless I'm on a drama mean.

Speaker 70 Well, yes, unless you're on a drama mean, but this kind of,

Speaker 74 I think, helps make the case that waiting in line, waiting in the queue is a necessary part of the experience, of the theme experience.

Speaker 66 Because we did it back to back and I was like, whoa, it's like, you know, it maybe wouldn't have been bad in between a couple of these things to have like 15, 20 minutes to just get a breather because just the g-forces on what are 34 and 35 year old bodies.

Speaker 66 You know, it was cuckoo, but then I will say took a drama mean for the next time we did it was chilled.

Speaker 107 Okay.

Speaker 120 But overall,

Speaker 70 roller coasters are not, is not like DJing.

Speaker 64 You can't do B2B. You can't do back-to-back.

Speaker 50 Babe. Babe.
You can.

Speaker 54 That's a rule of culture.

Speaker 36 That's a rule of culture.

Speaker 127 Number 77.

Speaker 56 Roller coasters.

Speaker 107 Roller coasters are

Speaker 102 not like DJing.

Speaker 74 Are not like DJing.

Speaker 64 You can't do BMB.

Speaker 122 You can't do back to back. You can't do BMB.

Speaker 125 Wait, but I will say this.

Speaker 36 Here's what I'm ready to say.

Speaker 56 Velocircoaster, the reason why it felt less intent is because it's so

Speaker 66 it's like got like it picks up energy as it goes.

Speaker 105 Velocicoaster is the best roller coaster I've ever done.

Speaker 91 100%

Speaker 126 from the theming to like the way that the elements seem to increase an excitement and surprise factor.

Speaker 55 The fact that the last element on the Velocicoaster is that insane,

Speaker 63 like, it's like, it's like a barrel roll over the lake.

Speaker 139 It's like a, it's crazy.

Speaker 19 It's such a quick little wrench of a turn. It's like, whoop.

Speaker 66 It only has a lap bar too.

Speaker 147 So you're like really bucking.

Speaker 66 And that is the best roller coaster I've ever done for sure.

Speaker 63 Stardust Racers is great because it's duels and it's, you know, it's really, it's wild. It's quick.

Speaker 122 You're whipping.

Speaker 96 But for me, Velocicoaster remains untouched.

Speaker 68 I love all coasters equally.

Speaker 113 You are an equal opportunist.

Speaker 81 Yes.

Speaker 87 Curse of the Werewolf.

Speaker 63 That tore us up.

Speaker 67 I love Curse of the Werewolf.

Speaker 77 Oh my God.

Speaker 62 We loved that.

Speaker 90 I just love Dark Universe in general.

Speaker 49 We love Monsters Unchanged.

Speaker 58 That's our home.

Speaker 147 We feel really at home there.

Speaker 36 The Monsters Unchange.

Speaker 125 So we've officially, this is the first time we can tell everyone exactly about Dr.

Speaker 96 Victoria Frankenstein and what her deal is because now we've seen it it with our own eyes.

Speaker 49 Like we now have met her.

Speaker 89 We understand her.

Speaker 105 She is about her legacy.

Speaker 66 Bowen Yang let out a cackle so loud after she delivered the last line of the ride.

Speaker 98 It was so funny.

Speaker 94 I'll butcher the line, but it was like, the Frankenstein name is preserved.

Speaker 54 It's something like that.

Speaker 57 Bow to the name Frankenstein.

Speaker 94 And Bowen just lets out a huge cackle.

Speaker 36 And Celeste Yung goes, it's about legacy.

Speaker 70 Well, Celeste goes, It's really interesting that this is a ride where the stakes are

Speaker 93 my family.

Speaker 100 It's so good.

Speaker 36 You get there. Okay, so you get to the fucking Frankenstein Manor.

Speaker 195 It's a gag.

Speaker 89 Everything, this like light.

Speaker 49 Stunning.

Speaker 133 It's so good.

Speaker 36 And all the feeling is so good.

Speaker 87 You walk through, like, she's got like all the monster pieces. Like, she's got like Frankenstein's torso.

Speaker 66 It's like on display. It's of old, but it's like they've got this like modern touches throughout to show that she's like a scientist now.

Speaker 64 And she's like, but she's a scientist while also giving like Van Helsing, but Kunt.

Speaker 147 Oh, no, no.

Speaker 86 You have never seen Evangeline Lily.

Speaker 95 Literally, Bowen turns to me and goes, Evangeline Lily.

Speaker 89 And I was like, 100%.

Speaker 70 Evangeline Lily, if she believed in science.

Speaker 58 Do you know what I mean?

Speaker 61 Yes, exactly.

Speaker 125 Okay, if only she would be so powerful

Speaker 122 if only.

Speaker 69 If she took the shot, if she took the backstage.

Speaker 16 She's taking the shot kate beckonsale too kind of down oh you know what i mean

Speaker 150 yeah so you you're walking through and like it's like okay so

Speaker 82 she has captured a lot of the monsters yeah and her whole thing is i'm gonna show them off and because i hear people talking shit like it's a lot of that like in the pre-show she's like let me tell you something i hear people talking shit and like i you need to understand like this is the game that i run monster catching.

Speaker 36 And I'm about to really gag you because I have Dracula, like, locked up, and I'm going to show him off.

Speaker 70 He's in my little hovering prison in my little, like, however she, like, captures these monsters, she has them in this, like, Vitruvian man hold with electricity, right?

Speaker 147 Yeah.

Speaker 36 Basically, it's like.

Speaker 78 It's sort of an electrical prison for monsters or a zoo or something.

Speaker 147 And you're going to go through it.

Speaker 134 Yeah.

Speaker 60 So pretty much right away, you realize Dracula is that girl.

Speaker 147 Like ultimately, it's not gonna work, doctor.

Speaker 66 And I put that in quotes, Victoria.

Speaker 195 I'd love to know what her doctorate is in.

Speaker 60 I'd love to see that accreditation.

Speaker 133 I think she had a doctorate in dramatic writing, Bo.

Speaker 70 Dramatic writing.

Speaker 133 I think she had a doctorate in foolishness.

Speaker 70 And foolishness.

Speaker 117 You're anti-Victoria.

Speaker 106 Well, I think she certainly exposed us to something that could kill us again and again.

Speaker 67 Oh, you're right. You're still mad.

Speaker 86 And you're thinking, oh, at least they're locked up.

Speaker 7 This woman knows what she's doing.

Speaker 134 She's She's a doctor. You get in.

Speaker 126 That is not the case.

Speaker 76 It's actually quite the opposite.

Speaker 147 You're exposed to demons, monsters, and more.

Speaker 63 Two wolf men, the wolf man and the werewolf, which are different, by the way.

Speaker 36 So different.

Speaker 66 It's not even funny.

Speaker 75 Look it up. Look it up.

Speaker 70 But you know who's helping her, who I think is the

Speaker 80 monster.

Speaker 64 So he's sort of, you will go in there thinking, oh, this is just her sidekick, whatever.

Speaker 97 He ends up factoring in huge because you

Speaker 67 know I love him

Speaker 63 and appreciate him for what he's done the way he put himself out there, which could not have been easy.

Speaker 68 Also, if Frankenstein's monster walked into the club with his height and his proportions, some of y'all would drop Trow.

Speaker 63 Yeah. Including me.

Speaker 106 You just have to be very extroverted with him.

Speaker 36 Like you, if you have to shoot your shot and follow up because it's, you know, he's got limitations socially.

Speaker 70 We talked to him and the bride of Frankenstein outside the park.

Speaker 71 And I, I, you know what I realized?

Speaker 70 The original himbo.

Speaker 58 100%.

Speaker 66 Frankenstein's monster was the original himbo. That's ruler culture number 49.

Speaker 63 Frankenstein's Frankenstein's monster was

Speaker 110 the small himbo.

Speaker 92 What do you think of her?

Speaker 49 The bride?

Speaker 16 Yeah.

Speaker 16 I can't get a read.

Speaker 92 I think she's iconic.

Speaker 94 Well, I mean, she's definitely a star.

Speaker 71 There's, there's some little like TikTok thing that I don't quite have memorized, but it's like, you know, girlfriend, pretty girlfriend who has like, but it's like these kids who go to like universities in the south or something.

Speaker 67 It's like the pretty girl who does all the talking and then like the quiet boyfriend.

Speaker 160 It's very, it's giving that.

Speaker 120 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 196 And like, I think she's the, she's the chatty one.

Speaker 74 She's, she does a lot of the PR and the communication for them as a couple.

Speaker 109 Yeah, certainly.

Speaker 36 I find her to be very controlling, I guess is all I'm saying.

Speaker 113 Look, maybe, maybe she knows him better than me. She knows what he needs.

Speaker 72 Would you rather Brida Frankenstein or Victoria Frankenstein?

Speaker 70 Not that you have to choose, but you are in this scenario and making you choose.

Speaker 49 Gun to your head.

Speaker 82 I feel like Victoria Frankenstein is so in her own thing.

Speaker 36 She speaks for herself.

Speaker 66 I don't think, first of all, I don't think she has a partner. I don't think it would work.

Speaker 63 I think a lot of guys, and say nothing, because, like I said, I have issues with the fact that she exposed us to such danger in the Monster Castle.

Speaker 125 But I would say a lot of men are probably very threatened by her.

Speaker 88 Because you know what I mean?

Speaker 148 Her last name, Frankenstein.

Speaker 117 I mean, she's a doctor.

Speaker 112 She's uncompromising.

Speaker 113 She's very committed to what she does.

Speaker 63 She looks like that.

Speaker 96 I don't think men would be strong enough.

Speaker 148 I don't think there is any, a single man, straight man that's secure enough to date Dr.

Speaker 66 Victoria Frankenstein.

Speaker 114 I just don't.

Speaker 64 Well, I think there's something really incredible about Dr.

Speaker 79 Victoria Frankenstein in the way that she is like.

Speaker 49 shall we say, like rendered in this world, which is you can imagine that she grew up having to apologize for being alive because everyone's like, Nepo baby, Nepo baby, Nepo baby.

Speaker 90 But she is literally, she has turned that sort of thing,

Speaker 70 that animus from society into, I'm going to do something and make sure that the Frankenstein name is preserved.

Speaker 77 And that actually is pretty incredible if you think about it.

Speaker 70 Cause it's like, well, is nepotism a bad thing when it comes to like family honor?

Speaker 64 When you have to uphold this this name and this name that is bastardized by culture for all these years, everyone's, oh, Frank, it's Frankenstein's monster.

Speaker 72 It's Dr. Frankenstein.

Speaker 39 No one knows what the name even means anymore.

Speaker 55 It has completely lost its meaning.

Speaker 119 And also, I think you're giving people too much credit because I think there are many more people than we even want to admit that are out here pointing to the gentleman with the bolts in his neck and the flat head.

Speaker 55 And they're pointing, and you know what they're saying?

Speaker 85 That's Frankenstein.

Speaker 121 No, right.

Speaker 62 And they are wrong.

Speaker 106 And that is why Dr.

Speaker 130 Vittoria Frankenstein gets a lot of license from me. Yes.

Speaker 55 Because it's not even just a bastardization.

Speaker 133 It's a complete ignorance.

Speaker 106 It is a complete ignorance in society today.

Speaker 82 And I think that that's why she gets a lot of credit from me for trying.

Speaker 106 Because you know what? She's actually also an elder millennial icon.

Speaker 48 Yes.

Speaker 130 And she said, I will be caught trying hard.

Speaker 82 Dr. Vittoria Frankenstein has worked hard and you can see the work.
You can hear her sweat.

Speaker 55 She actually can't control the volume of her voice.

Speaker 66 Have you noticed that?

Speaker 81 Yes.

Speaker 93 She's always yelling.

Speaker 117 Shouting.

Speaker 65 Shouting, which we love.

Speaker 36 Jaw tension, really serious stuff.

Speaker 124 You know, I just re-watched the movie Run Lola Run

Speaker 65 because of reasons.

Speaker 127 And I realized she's a character who shouts and screams and it's a power she has.

Speaker 130 And I realized screaming is the biggest, most clearest proof that someone is alive.

Speaker 88 Whoa.

Speaker 68 That you're making noise, that you have vitality, that you can produce a sound loud like that.

Speaker 74 This is why you and I love screaming.

Speaker 147 This is why when it was like, oh, they're screaming.

Speaker 71 It doesn't matter.

Speaker 72 Oh, that person shouts too much in their performance.

Speaker 19 I'm like, that's not a bad thing.

Speaker 72 Shouting is proof that you are alive.

Speaker 141 When you scream, what you say is,

Speaker 124 remember me. I'm here.

Speaker 49 I'm here.

Speaker 94 Remember my sound.

Speaker 148 When you scream, you're saying, remember my sound.

Speaker 82 That's actually rule of culture number 50.

Speaker 49 When you scream, you're actually saying,

Speaker 16 remember my sound.

Speaker 66 That actually is title of app.

Speaker 95 Remember my sound.

Speaker 49 This is a very interesting culture catcher because the vibes are, you are being top form, stoned icon.

Speaker 73 I am being also classic, tired as fuck, jet lagged.

Speaker 49 Bowen. Can barely.

Speaker 61 No one was ever thinking about you.

Speaker 117 No, I was tired, jet lagged, or more.

Speaker 119 You brought that up.

Speaker 133 I wasn't thinking of you as tired.

Speaker 177 I was thinking of you as incredibly vivid.

Speaker 64 I'm owning it. I'm not saying, I'm not insecure about, oh, can people tell that I'm tired?

Speaker 68 I'm saying this is the classic Matt and Bowen vibe in a lot of ways.

Speaker 114 You don't seem tired to me.

Speaker 74 For some reason, didn't have the scaries or anything, except that it was Sunday, but it's a long weekend anyway in the UK.

Speaker 69 I've had a free day.

Speaker 65 Couldn't fall asleep.

Speaker 70 Fell asleep finally at 7 a.m. Woke, had to get up at 10 a.m.

Speaker 49 to transfer hotels.

Speaker 64 No.

Speaker 70 So I'm like, I'm on no sleep. And so that's why.

Speaker 178 Why do you think that is happening?

Speaker 194 And can you put the phone away?

Speaker 110 Yeah, yeah. I mean, it's probably that.

Speaker 64 I need a Xanax prescription.

Speaker 110 period.

Speaker 166 Girl, let me tell you something.

Speaker 126 Last night I took half the Dramamine. Out.

Speaker 47 Out.

Speaker 96 Because I had a little bit left over from the theme park.

Speaker 114 I'm telling you, Dramamine was everything.

Speaker 60 Wait, can we just say what happens to Victoria ultimately? Is she actually

Speaker 113 so Frankenstein's monster ends up like, but this is a spoiler, I guess, but I don't know if you thought you'd leave the ride being like, oh, well, maybe on this one, you would think that Dracula won, but he doesn't.

Speaker 19 But Dracula has a very interesting journey in this.

Speaker 99 And I actually think Dracula is kind of the most fascinating figure in this whole story in a lot of ways well you know what i would love to explore more are the brides of dracula yes yes i was interested that's a really good section of the ride is when they get to sort of sorry to say this but slay yeah they really do slay and but it makes you think that dracula is serial monogamist

Speaker 65 And that is maybe his biggest personality trait that we're not talking about as a culture.

Speaker 70 This ride is really peeling back the layers of who these monsters, quote unquote, and these scientists are in real life.

Speaker 124 You know what I mean?

Speaker 72 Because we haven't been exposed to them as a culture in a long time.

Speaker 68 And I'm really excited that we have the opportunity again.

Speaker 36 Can I also say in an actual real way, these animatronics on that ride,

Speaker 57 I have never seen anything like it.

Speaker 96 And I'm including all of them, like at Disney, at whatever, like the animatronics in the Monsters Unchained ride at Epic Universe are the best I've ever seen bar none.

Speaker 195 Bar none.

Speaker 52 Period.

Speaker 68 Well, that, and that's just dark universe.

Speaker 77 That's just dark universe.

Speaker 106 Can we just say, went on the battle of the ministry, I heard it said a five-hour wait.

Speaker 99 Guys, it is really good.

Speaker 135 It is not worth the five-hour wait.

Speaker 195 No, wait, wait till later in the year.

Speaker 148 We went on it a couple times, seamless. Then the third time we went, we went on it.

Speaker 55 This is who was in the cart.

Speaker 96 Jessica Alba and her lovely, stunning hair and makeup team.

Speaker 70 Stunning hair and makeup team.

Speaker 55 And the ride broke the fuck down almost immediately. And the rest of it went, we were moving in motion without any of the

Speaker 70 with no sound.

Speaker 55 With no sound.

Speaker 59 It was the funniest thing I've ever experienced.

Speaker 102 Just like us next to Jessica Alba.

Speaker 99 Like while the ride goes out of control, we're cackling.

Speaker 86 We got out. That was fun, guys.
See you later.

Speaker 102 It was just, I will never forget.

Speaker 136 I've never been happier that a ride broke down.

Speaker 50 Oh, that was

Speaker 76 literally.

Speaker 47 I was telling the the story later and I was like, that was so funny.

Speaker 43 That was awesome.

Speaker 98 The Dark Angel herself, Jessica.

Speaker 74 The Dark Angel herself, the maker of the best bubble bath ever produced in history.

Speaker 92 I'm saying.

Speaker 64 Honest Bubble Bath, everyone buy it now.

Speaker 68 Now, I'm telling you.

Speaker 64 That was our

Speaker 113 kind of thing you were getting at the grand opening where like everywhere you turn, you're like, oh, they're here?

Speaker 74 You know who finally, you know, like, it hit me today that she was there was JoJo Siwa.

Speaker 110 And, like, we did not properly process that.

Speaker 47 Bowen, Bowen, I almost stopped us.

Speaker 63 I almost during the red, we were on the red carpet, the blue carpet rather, getting interviewed.

Speaker 55 And then I turn around and I see JoJo Siwa right in our line of sight. And a little bit inside me, I was like, I have to stop everything and tell Bowen that's Jojo Siwa.

Speaker 43 But of course you saw me. No, I knew.

Speaker 133 And why didn't we say anything?

Speaker 70 I don't know.

Speaker 76 Literally, karma came on shuffle today.

Speaker 49 I was nervous.

Speaker 124 I'm like, she's a fucking icon.

Speaker 133 I'm intimidated by JoJo Siwa.

Speaker 48 I am.

Speaker 100 She's a legend.

Speaker 82 You know who else was there?

Speaker 86 We were too gagged to say, hi, was Gertie from Miami.

Speaker 133 I know.

Speaker 144 Stunning. Do you see what I'm saying?

Speaker 77 This is how I am with housewives.

Speaker 72 Like, there's something about them that really gets me shaking in my boots.

Speaker 111 No, but Bo, then part of me was like, we should have gone over to her because she's one of the queens of Florida.

Speaker 89 It was up to us.

Speaker 117 I know.

Speaker 82 You have to remember, we were crowned princes of Celestial Park. Like, it's our job to host.

Speaker 19 She's the queen of Florida.

Speaker 147 it brings right back.

Speaker 122 It's so cool.

Speaker 92 They crushed.

Speaker 70 They crushed.

Speaker 71 And it was so cool seeing the Nintendo people there.

Speaker 70 Jeremy Yamoto and Doug Bowser, iconic legend, CEO of Nintendo America. His name is literally Doug Bowser.

Speaker 55 No relation.

Speaker 70 No relation to King Koopa, but is just kind of walking around in Isle of Berks, enjoying the meatballs, riding on hiccups wing gliders.

Speaker 87 Wait, can you talk on that ride?

Speaker 114 Because that was really sort of magical, huh?

Speaker 74 I loved hiccups wing gliders so much.

Speaker 49 Spoiler alert, you see, you see, I think their names are little gronkels.

Speaker 64 The little dragons kind of pop out, and they're the cutest little creatures you've ever seen.

Speaker 77 It's just darling.

Speaker 73 and i don't i i i don't use that word too much but that's the only word that comes to mind when i when i think about isle of burke darling it's just darling it really was just darling and we tried the meatballs

Speaker 167 What if your Wi-Fi wasn't just Wi-Fi, but the magic holding your whole holiday together?

Speaker 169 Well, with Xfinity Wi-Fi, it kind of is.

Speaker 170 Picture this.

Speaker 172 Powered by their best, most elite, high-performing tech, this Wi-Fi doesn't just connect devices, it keeps the peace at home during the most wonderful and most stressful time of the year.

Speaker 10 It's kind of like having a little holiday helper working behind the scenes, making sure the holiday playlist never skips the beat and the video call with grandma doesn't freeze mid-cookie tutorial.

Speaker 175 It's Wi-Fi that keeps your whole home connected so you can actually enjoy the holiday magic chaos-free.

Speaker 176 The best present of all.

Speaker 11 Let me paint a picture for you.

Speaker 152 A holiday movie marathon is streaming in the living room.

Speaker 14 Your kid is video chatting their friends from their tablet, and your partner is shopping for too many gifts and cinnamon candles.

Speaker 131 Ah!

Speaker 160 Not this season, not with Xfinity Wi-Fi.

Speaker 177 With Xfinity, you can boost the Wi-Fi to your device only.

Speaker 41 So when you go to upload 200 photos of that cat in a cute little Santa hat, you won't see that dreaded failed to upload message.

Speaker 24 Not this season, not with Xfinity Wi-Fi.

Speaker 180 And what if you had a way to make sure family time during the holidays had zero distractions?

Speaker 28 With Xfinity Wi-Fi, you can pause the kids' Wi-Fi and enjoy those special moments together.

Speaker 155 And if you're wondering what other parental instincts your Wi-Fi has during this busy season, Xfinity protects your kids when they're online so you know they're safe, even if you're busy making cocoa or taste-testing cookies.

Speaker 168 What?

Speaker 4 Someone has to make sure there's exactly the same amount of chocolate chips in each cookie.

Speaker 182 And what if your Wi-Fi could proactively fix issues before they even happen?

Speaker 176 Well, that's exactly what Xfinity Wi-Fi does.

Speaker 141 Like the friend who shows up with extra wrapping paper, bows, and tape before you even realize you're out.

Speaker 30 Because let's be honest, you never buy enough.

Speaker 15 Bottom line, Xfinity Wi-Fi isn't just smart, it's brilliant.

Speaker 3 And during the holidays, that brilliance, that's a gift.

Speaker 18 Xfinity, imagine that.

Speaker 41 Who decides what you can do?

Speaker 44 Who gets to decide what you're capable of?

Speaker 185 Your boss? Your friends?

Speaker 186 Some stranger on the internet?

Speaker 181 No, no, and absolutely no.

Speaker 187 You decide.

Speaker 166 Only you.

Speaker 168 Ford shares that belief.

Speaker 188 It's like engineered into their vehicles.

Speaker 13 An F-150 is all steel, sweat, and dreams.

Speaker 52 Right? Mm-hmm.

Speaker 6 A Ford Bronco is built for adventure, but you've got to get behind the wheel.

Speaker 186 Can you?

Speaker 20 Yeah, you can.

Speaker 8 But you have to first.

Speaker 13 You have to.

Speaker 15 And a Mustang, the Mustang that conquers curves.

Speaker 128 You are more capable than you know.

Speaker 8 Like, for example, I never thought I could parallel park.

Speaker 34 I just thought it wasn't something that was going to happen for me in my life.

Speaker 179 And not everyone gets to have every experience, you know?

Speaker 189 But then, suddenly, I did a parallel park and I thought, wow.

Speaker 191 I'm going to apply to Harvard.

Speaker 189 I didn't get in, but I did parallel park.

Speaker 192 Sometimes you just need to push.

Speaker 157 What is it that they say?

Speaker 7 Whether you think you can or you think you can't.

Speaker 20 You're right.

Speaker 13 Ready, set,

Speaker 117 Ford.

Speaker 193 Visit Ford.com to learn more.

Speaker 21 You ever just stop in the middle of a crazy day and realize, wow, I needed a break.

Speaker 13 It literally happened to me yesterday.

Speaker 169 I cracked open a Diet Coke, sat back for five minutes.

Speaker 52 Total reset.

Speaker 172 Right?

Speaker 175 There's something about the crispy, refreshing taste of an ice-cold Diet Coke.

Speaker 196 It just hits.

Speaker 152 It's my little me moment, like make time for a Diet Coke break, you know?

Speaker 28 Exactly.

Speaker 62 Diet Coke is the perfect companion for all break moments.

Speaker 53 Diet Coke.

Speaker 42 This is my taste.

Speaker 38 Two questions. What are you doing right now?

Speaker 5 And why aren't you on a Virgin Voyages Caribbean cruise?

Speaker 159 Well, obviously you were listening to us. Smart use of your time.

Speaker 165 True.

Speaker 5 But you could also be on a Virgin Voyages Caribbean cruise at the same time.

Speaker 38 That's just brilliant time management.

Speaker 65 Very true.

Speaker 159 This gives me an idea.

Speaker 199 Let's do a quick cruise quiz. Ready?

Speaker 160 First, cruise dining.

Speaker 152 Do you prefer a buffet or a curated dining experience with access to 20 distinct restaurants?

Speaker 165 Curated dining.

Speaker 72 Next.

Speaker 199 Okay, good choice. That's what Virgin Voyages offers.

Speaker 200 Second question.

Speaker 40 Would you rather have an overstuffed itinerary or the freedom to explore stunning Caribbean?

Speaker 7 Oh, I want the freedom to explore stunning Caribbean destinations.

Speaker 165 Again, I think I see where this quiz is going.

Speaker 31 Virgin Voyages is amazing.

Speaker 40 Yeah, absolutely.

Speaker 11 The cruises are kid-free.

Speaker 153 From sunrise yoga to late-night cocktails, every moment is made for grown-up fun.

Speaker 175 Nothing against kids.

Speaker 197 Kids are awesome, but sometimes it's nice to be kid-free.

Speaker 154 And there's so much included value, over $1,000.

Speaker 155 Right.

Speaker 21 Over $1,000 of awesomeness all included.

Speaker 181 Wi-Fi soda, top-tier entertainment, over 20 restaurants, and even group fitness classes.

Speaker 23 No hidden fees, no surprise charges.

Speaker 41 Virgin Voyages gives you the kind of luxury you actually deserve.

Speaker 7 And you know what?

Speaker 19 I deserve luxury.

Speaker 170 You do, and me too.

Speaker 200 Yes, there's always something happening on board. From wellness-focused sailings to epic holiday voyages, live music, DJs, themed parties, and more, boredom doesn't board the ship.

Speaker 25 And there are so many amazing stops.

Speaker 196 You leave from Miami and sail to places like Grand Cayman, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic.

Speaker 21 Virgin even has their own private beach club in Bimini.

Speaker 37 And they're adding stops in 2025 and 2026.

Speaker 14 Yeah, like Aruba, St. Lucia, and Caraçao.

Speaker 38 But it's not all go, go, go.

Speaker 45 Right, you can totally go into relaxation mode too.

Speaker 85 Can I say something?

Speaker 135 You can say all the things.

Speaker 77 In my own life, this is meatloaf summer for Bella.

Speaker 56 I'm making meatloafs this season.

Speaker 49 Can I? Summer meatloafs.

Speaker 36 Can I have a piece?

Speaker 81 Yes, you can have a piece.

Speaker 43 You're coming over.

Speaker 124 I have a new deck.

Speaker 76 I'm going to learn how to grill.

Speaker 50 Wow.

Speaker 36 This is a new life. You've always been good at the grill, though.

Speaker 55 I mean, not like Jared. Jared is the grill master.

Speaker 74 Jared is the grill master.

Speaker 70 No, I don't know. I don't really know my way around the grill.

Speaker 77 And that's sort of my final boss with cocaine.

Speaker 110 You got to go with that. I got to go with that.

Speaker 49 Last night, Melissa made us turkey burgers.

Speaker 107 Yum. I love a turkey burger.

Speaker 141 Okay, maybe there's something here.

Speaker 85 Maybe there's something here with turkey burgers.

Speaker 137 I could actually, I could get into that.

Speaker 56 Can I say something?

Speaker 70 Another thing yeah i don't i don't get all this stuff about like oh lean meat is dry like yeah that's fine one of the moistest things that i've ever eaten last night i'm sure but i'm just saying like i don't mind it when a chicken breast is like a little overcooked and like okay this just means i can dip it in a sauce let me tell you like i don't want to call this person out but i will

Speaker 55 jared doesn't like condiments he doesn't

Speaker 49 like sauce

Speaker 89 i said

Speaker 106 does anyone out there identify as someone who doesn't like condiments at all?

Speaker 50 Sauce of any kind?

Speaker 64 The concentric circle out of that is that you don't like seasoning at all, which is crazy.

Speaker 133 And they're wrong. And they're wrong.

Speaker 70 It's an expression.

Speaker 82 It is an expression.

Speaker 72 Put your sauce on it.

Speaker 74 Condiments.

Speaker 82 are an expression. It's actually rule of culture number

Speaker 66 74.

Speaker 49 Condiments are an expression.

Speaker 36 Oh, and you can get so creative with it. Condiments are creations.

Speaker 101 Condiments are Christians' dressings are fabulous.

Speaker 113 By the way, I did want to unveil my new

Speaker 179 drag name.

Speaker 81 Tell us.

Speaker 86 Beautiful dress.

Speaker 100 Oh, because you want.

Speaker 62 Like, imagine coming around the corner.

Speaker 106 And then the first thing Ruth says is, beautiful dress.

Speaker 49 Hi, beautiful.

Speaker 106 Well, beautiful was saying that you didn't really rise to the challenge in

Speaker 49 the main challenge today.

Speaker 54 Well, beautiful was wrong about that.

Speaker 100 Beautiful.

Speaker 96 I think beautiful needs to mind her own beautiful business.

Speaker 92 What is the most beautiful dress ever?

Speaker 163 The most beautiful dress ever was, of course, Cinderella's dress.

Speaker 130 I was going to say that too.

Speaker 72 And I'm dead ass.

Speaker 141 It was the most beautiful dress.

Speaker 36 Let's just get one thing straight.

Speaker 73 Go.

Speaker 57 Anyone that ever hits a red carpet is trying to do what Cinderella did at the ball.

Speaker 134 If you are in a modern fashion

Speaker 82 and you do anything where you show up to a place and hope to gag someone with what you're wearing, you are trying to do what Cinderella first did.

Speaker 195 And that is period.

Speaker 70 But the tragic thing is that Cinderella never walked the carpet.

Speaker 75 She just kind of shows up at the ball.

Speaker 87 You know, it's like the people that first created fire never got to see the fireworks display at Epic Universe, but they they should rest knowing that they triumphed.

Speaker 82 They should rest knowing that they triumphed.

Speaker 116 That they triumphed.

Speaker 89 I hope that's how they rest, knowing that they triumphed.

Speaker 81 They triumphed.

Speaker 63 I think Cinderella.

Speaker 102 Put that on my tombstone, I swear to God.

Speaker 36 He rests knowing he triumphs.

Speaker 64 He triumphed. I'm not kidding.

Speaker 55 Write that down and put that on my tombstone, and you are in charge because I do die first.

Speaker 116 I've seen the future. Stop.
Stop.

Speaker 110 No, we're not doing that.

Speaker 113 We're not doing it because it's too sad to get into the way I die. I've seen it.

Speaker 49 I've seen the future.

Speaker 113 You stand by watching.

Speaker 110 Spoiler alert.

Speaker 64 You do nothing. You're hapless.

Speaker 76 I hate this.

Speaker 56 I'm so upset right now.

Speaker 60 It's because we're standing on a roof and I just go, what, what, what?

Speaker 81 And I fall off the roof.

Speaker 36 And you stand hapless.

Speaker 43 Why are we on the roof?

Speaker 16 Why are I

Speaker 63 getting invited to a roof?

Speaker 133 If we get invited to a roof party in the future, no, that's, that might be where it happens.

Speaker 70 That I'm never going on a roof.

Speaker 66 You can't allow me to go on the roof, Bo.

Speaker 72 When you say hapless, do you mean helpless or do you mean hapless as in like unlucky?

Speaker 100 You're both.

Speaker 76 You haplessly watched me fall off the roof.

Speaker 59 It wasn't so lucky for you that you were there to watch.

Speaker 74 And I'm also helpless.

Speaker 68 Like, I can't help.

Speaker 145 I you were hapless, helpless, and more.

Speaker 92 I don't like that at all, man.

Speaker 49 Like, I'm kidding.

Speaker 148 Can I tell you something? I can't see the future.

Speaker 118 I was doing a sort of bit.

Speaker 148 Things got out of hand.

Speaker 126 You know what? Sometimes I think,

Speaker 51 when you do bits, sometimes things get a little crazy.

Speaker 96 Can I say one of of the reasons why I missed recording virtually is because we're using the cans and I love knowing the effect you can give when you, when you wear the cans.

Speaker 36 Like, I don't know. I love it.

Speaker 100 It's better

Speaker 49 podcast performance because you can hear what your voice can do.

Speaker 145 You can sort of, you know, be a little ASMR.

Speaker 16 Go down.

Speaker 123 You can do so much with the cans.

Speaker 84 I do think that wearing cans is like a podcast thing.

Speaker 82 And when we have guests and we don't wear the cans, I'm always like, is it?

Speaker 124 I see.

Speaker 70 Oh my God. You need to go on British radio because they love the cans.

Speaker 57 I need to go on British radio.

Speaker 143 Yeah.

Speaker 49 You love saying cans.

Speaker 66 Are you still saying modus operandi?

Speaker 195 I'm a little in my head about it now.

Speaker 143 That's for sure.

Speaker 64 No.

Speaker 70 Oh, no.

Speaker 64 No.

Speaker 43 Because I feel like.

Speaker 149 Well, I feel like we were like, it's modus operandi.

Speaker 36 And I was like, I've never heard it like that.

Speaker 74 That was Berbiglia being Berbiglia.

Speaker 133 It was him being superior.

Speaker 50 Okay.

Speaker 57 Yes, he was acting very superior in the moment.

Speaker 54 So what else should we talk about?

Speaker 36 I saw Hugh Jackman perform at Radio City.

Speaker 20 Oh my God. Yes.

Speaker 147 Absolutely electric show.

Speaker 106 But the highlight was when he brought out this woman.

Speaker 6 Her name was Burgundy Williams.

Speaker 148 And she sang Never Enough.

Speaker 57 Because I saw that Never Enough from The Greater Showman was on the set list.

Speaker 96 And I was like, is Hugh going to give Never Enough?

Speaker 63 Is that how deep in it we are?

Speaker 119 Is Miss Allred here?

Speaker 4 She was not.

Speaker 90 So basically, like Burgundy Williams.

Speaker 57 Burgundy Williams came in and slayed never enough.

Speaker 133 And that got me to, of course, search her name in the YouTube search bar.

Speaker 126 So then I'm watching a little bit of Burgundy Williams

Speaker 101 X Factor UK performances.

Speaker 84 I find out that's where she's from.

Speaker 104 I'm watching one performance of Aretha Franklin's song, Respect, well-known song.

Speaker 68 Did it remind you of Callie?

Speaker 26 Everybody knows it. Everyone loves it.

Speaker 36 Not only was everyone loving it and knowing it so much, they cut to Simon Cowell, who's a judge, still to this day.

Speaker 49 My girl has her arms up over her head dancing.

Speaker 58 Simon.

Speaker 63 I said, does Simon dance now?

Speaker 17 He never would have danced in the aisle.

Speaker 138 Simon Cowell dancing with his hands above his head to change Franklin's respect.

Speaker 89 I was like, don't tell me that people can't change and that we can't have growth.

Speaker 64 No.

Speaker 148 And I wasn't sure how I felt about it because I'm like, should Simon be dancing hands up in the air sometimes?

Speaker 36 But he was.

Speaker 102 I was like, now I have to process how I feel about this.

Speaker 130 There's a Christmas Carol story in that.

Speaker 49 Oh, Simon Cowell was

Speaker 49 visited Scrooge.

Speaker 74 But he was visited by ghosts.

Speaker 60 You know, I think the ghost that visited him was one of the American Idol contestants that he was shitty to.

Speaker 55 Yes, I think William Hung was definitely one of the ghosts of American Idol past.

Speaker 79 Alive and well, as far as we know.

Speaker 19 They're just specters.

Speaker 65 They're just like, they're just like conceptual ghosts. No, no, no.

Speaker 127 These are conceptual ghosts.

Speaker 103 Right.

Speaker 66 Like, I think that Jennifer Hudson is probably one of his conceptual ghosts.

Speaker 150 Because I don't think he did enough.

Speaker 79 Right, right.

Speaker 64 He didn't do enough to save her.

Speaker 65 Oh, my God.

Speaker 60 You know that Simon Cowell said something crazy about Beyonce.

Speaker 78 when she first was going solo.

Speaker 123 He said, like, she's not talented and not attractive.

Speaker 58 Literally, he's on record saying those things, something to that degree.

Speaker 3 There's that Times review of Dangerously in Love where they're like, she's no Ashanti.

Speaker 90 Like, it's so funny the people who are eating such crow right now.

Speaker 72 It's what? How is Cowboy Carter to her?

Speaker 66 I want to say, I'm so excited.

Speaker 57 So, you and I are going together.

Speaker 123 So, we're going to be in France next month and for a few days in Cannes.

Speaker 96 And then we're going to Paris because Matt Whitaker and Tom Nye were going to be there seeing her in Paris.

Speaker 76 And I was like, oh my God, let's just go.

Speaker 66 It's Kismet. We're going to go.

Speaker 47 But I couldn't help myself and went on thursday at met life can i say not so crazy getting in and out of met life this time what a relief not so crazy and it also was cold and raining a little bit yeah so i dressed for comfort and functionality and not cowboy carter fashion right the way i will in um oh i'm dressing for cowboy carter fashion in paris i might even wear a little something that you gave me

Speaker 66 but the show was phenomenal i'm so happy i dressed to be warm because we could like you know, not even think about it.

Speaker 118 And she just is getting better.

Speaker 106 She's literally getting better.

Speaker 36 There's no one that's ever looked hotter ever in anyone's life than Beyonce doing this tour.

Speaker 80 Her voice is

Speaker 16 unreal.

Speaker 113 And what I loved about this tour, too, is she throws it.

Speaker 145 Well, no spoilers on set list if you don't want them, but I'm going to dive in here.

Speaker 87 You hear irreplaceable.

Speaker 59 You hear if I were a boy.

Speaker 49 You hear single ladies.

Speaker 123 By the end, like she also gives Renaissance a section.

Speaker 58 And

Speaker 57 yeah, I mean, like, it's a two-hour, 45-minute show that feels like it could keep going.

Speaker 67 I love that.

Speaker 74 It's how I feel about Eras tour.

Speaker 70 I'm like, oh, why?

Speaker 64 I could, I could use more.

Speaker 118 I am so anticipating this Lord era.

Speaker 91 You've been saying we are so bad.

Speaker 53 I love, what was that?

Speaker 70 I am watching her in interviews now and I'm seeing the NB jump out. And I get what she's saying when she's like, I don't really know if I should call myself non-binary right now, non-binary right now,

Speaker 70 but just the way that she is just like even posing and just carrying herself. I'm like, okay.

Speaker 36 Very powerful and connected.

Speaker 58 Yeah.

Speaker 77 The center of gravity is different in a way that is fascinating to me.

Speaker 70 And I'm like, I'm interested to see where this goes next.

Speaker 49 Love Lord.

Speaker 140 Obviously, Love Lord. Love that

Speaker 74 one of her inspirations for this album was

Speaker 79 Julio Torres Loving the Color Clear.

Speaker 36 Iconic.

Speaker 105 I can't believe that's the best.

Speaker 106 The best.

Speaker 57 And by the way, I'm re-in-love with Green Light because I saw John Proctor as the villain on

Speaker 117 Broadway.

Speaker 58 And oh, you're going to fucking love it.

Speaker 108 And Green Light by Lorde factors in in a big way.

Speaker 49 And I was just like, this is one of the best pop songs of the past, you know, 100%.

Speaker 12 2017, was that, was that Melodrama?

Speaker 67 Eight years ago.

Speaker 4 Yeah, you know who hosted it?

Speaker 61 She did it on SNL, and I watched the performance again.

Speaker 89 It was such a good performance on SNL, and Scarlett hosted that one.

Speaker 120 Oh, wow. That's right.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 But I remember when that album came out, it was a Fire Island summer. We were just, all we did was just play Melodrama.

Speaker 121 And it's the summer of 2017.

Speaker 77 Oh, wow.

Speaker 90 We've been going a while.

Speaker 57 It's perfect. Green Light is one of the best.

Speaker 74 I want to say, Can,

Speaker 76 I'm kind of like excited at some of the movies.

Speaker 67 I don't really like, I think it's probably too early to like cherry pick anything, but were you going to say, I mean, dialogue.

Speaker 49 They're saying it's Jennifer Lawrence's year, which I cannot wait to see.

Speaker 123 I mean, she's just the best.

Speaker 122 She should have gotten Oscar and I'm for no hard feelings.

Speaker 143 I said it.

Speaker 50 Agree.

Speaker 110 Agreed.

Speaker 148 Who else carries comedy that easily and isn't not for nothing, but

Speaker 114 feeling like they're trying too hard?

Speaker 57 You know what I mean?

Speaker 82 Like, she's effortlessly funny.

Speaker 63 She's like, also, like, balancing all of the like grounded aspects with the comedy in that movie.

Speaker 87 Like that, that was fucking good.

Speaker 70 Locked in with Andrew Barth Feldman so well.

Speaker 79 They were so good together.

Speaker 70 So underrated.

Speaker 79 Absolutely.

Speaker 49 It was just an accident. Palm d'Or.

Speaker 70 I'm excited to see that. And then

Speaker 121 I'm excited to see the Nouvelle Vague movie, that Richard Linkleater movie

Speaker 77 about the making of breathless, about Godar making breathless.

Speaker 70 And then there's that, the guy who did worst person in the world and then actress from that movie doing another movie, sentimental value, Renata.

Speaker 69 I'm excited to to see that i need to re-watch that movie because i only gave it one pass and i'm like i'm obsessed i love it i'm gonna watch this for the rest of my life that's actually a blind spot for me i've never seen it so maybe

Speaker 77 meet meatloaf and worse person oh wait actually for you and i that's a great movie to watch for somebody really do you know what i'm talking about yay yes yeah you guys the way that last culture has the wheels turning

Speaker 62 should we tease anything from upcoming culture awards there's not really much to say yet there's not much to say yet but we're excited to

Speaker 71 get the team together.

Speaker 74 We have fun ideas.

Speaker 62 They're brewing.

Speaker 70 They're brewing.

Speaker 150 And for those of you

Speaker 74 who were expecting it to be in New York this summer, we apologize that it's a bit of a curveball, but we love to sort of balance it out.

Speaker 74 We would love to bring it back to New York sometime in the future if we're able to. But for now, we are so excited.

Speaker 16 to be in LA.

Speaker 74 And we will have more information very soon about how to attend the event in person.

Speaker 77 And the other upside to it is that anyone can watch from the comfort of their home.

Speaker 64 Unlike past years where we had, where we had to gatekeep it, unfortunately, because we were trying to sell it.

Speaker 68 Like that was the reason why in the years past, we couldn't post the full video online. You know, we've had wonderful people, publicists, really, like stream from the audience.

Speaker 98 Yeah, out there with their TikToks. Yeah.

Speaker 105 That was really good.

Speaker 154 A holiday movie marathon is streaming in the living room.

Speaker 14 Your kid is video chatting their friends from their tablet.

Speaker 39 And your partner is shopping for too many gifts and cinnamon candles.

Speaker 131 Ah!

Speaker 160 Not this season, not with Xfinity Wi-Fi.

Speaker 177 With Xfiniti, you can boost the Wi-Fi to your device only.

Speaker 41 So when you go to upload 200 photos of that cat in a cute little Santa hat, you won't see that dreaded failed to upload message.

Speaker 21 Not this season, not with Xfinity Wi-Fi.

Speaker 180 And what if you had a way to make sure family time during the holidays had zero distractions?

Speaker 28 With Xfinity Wi-Fi, you can pause the kids' Wi-Fi and enjoy those special moments together.

Speaker 154 And if you're wondering what other parental instincts your Wi-Fi has during this busy season, Xfinity protects your kids when they're online online so you know they're safe even if you're busy making cocoa or taste testing cookies what someone has to make sure there's exactly the same amount of chocolate chips in each cookie

Speaker 141 and what if your wifi could proactively fix issues before they even happen well that's exactly what xfinity wi-fi does like the friend who shows up with extra wrapping paper bows and tape before you even realize you're out because let's be honest you never buy enough bottom line xfinity wi-fi isn't just smart it's brilliant and during the holidays that brilliance that's a gift xfinity imagine that.

Speaker 41 Who decides what you can do?

Speaker 44 Who gets to decide what you're capable of?

Speaker 185 Your boss? Your friends?

Speaker 186 Some stranger on the internet?

Speaker 181 No, no, and absolutely no.

Speaker 187 You decide.

Speaker 166 Only you.

Speaker 168 Ford shares that belief.

Speaker 188 It's like engineered into their vehicles.

Speaker 13 An F-150 is all steel, sweat, and dreams.

Speaker 52 Right? Mm-hmm.

Speaker 6 A Ford Bronco is built for adventure, but you've got to get behind the wheel.

Speaker 186 Can you?

Speaker 20 Yeah, you can.

Speaker 8 But you have to first.

Speaker 13 You have to.

Speaker 15 And a Mustang?

Speaker 2 the Mustang that conquers curves.

Speaker 128 You are more capable than you know.

Speaker 8 Like, for example, I never thought I could parallel park.

Speaker 34 I just thought it wasn't something that was going to happen for me in my life.

Speaker 179 And not everyone gets to have every experience, you know?

Speaker 189 But then, suddenly, I did a parallel park and I thought, wow, I'm going to apply to Harvard. I didn't get in, but I did parallel park.

Speaker 192 Sometimes you just need to push.

Speaker 157 What is it that they say?

Speaker 7 Whether you think you can or you think you can't?

Speaker 20 You're right.

Speaker 13 It literally happened to me yesterday. I cracked open a Diet Coke, sat back for five minutes, total reset.

Speaker 172 Right?

Speaker 41 There's something about the crispy, refreshing taste of an ice-cold Diet Coke.

Speaker 196 It just hits.

Speaker 28 Exactly.

Speaker 62 Diet Coke is the perfect companion for all break moments.

Speaker 5 And why aren't you on a Virgin Voyages Caribbean cruise?

Speaker 159 Well, obviously you were listening to us. Smart use of your time.

Speaker 165 True.

Speaker 61 I think the mechanisms are in place for I don't think so honey.

Speaker 49 What do you think?

Speaker 64 I think so as well.

Speaker 70 I have a random one, but I hope you agree.

Speaker 105 But do you want to go first?

Speaker 92 Yeah, I guess I'll go first.

Speaker 114 I don't think so honey is our 60-second segment where we take a second, 60, actually excuse me for my mistake there, to rail, rant, and more against something in culture that

Speaker 107 has to be stopped preferably soon.

Speaker 57 So, this is mine.

Speaker 58 I'm ready to go.

Speaker 64 Okay, this is Matt Rogers.

Speaker 77 I don't think so, honey. His time starts now.

Speaker 85 I don't think so, honey.

Speaker 84 Gay guys making weight jokes in front of women

Speaker 55 about themselves.

Speaker 112 Like, oh God, like you're not a gay AI from 2017.

Speaker 63 Like, please stop acting like one.

Speaker 58 People being like, ugh, I don't want to snack on something.

Speaker 66 Just like anyone that's like being annoying and making weight jokes in front of women, you're a gay guy.

Speaker 142 Like, the way that you view your body, like you're allowed to be, feel however you want to feel, but just like understand that, like,

Speaker 49 oh, I don't want to eat that in front of women.

Speaker 132 It's like, I don't know.

Speaker 147 Like, this, this really bothers me.

Speaker 36 It's like gay guys, like, not understanding, like, the way that you talk about your body is the way that women feel about it.

Speaker 58 all the time.

Speaker 123 Like, I feel like the summer is just occasion for people to be like,

Speaker 110 oh my God, I'm so fucking fat.

Speaker 60 And it's like, like,

Speaker 85 because it's just be more careful with the way you toss this shit around.

Speaker 123 Even if you think you're being funny, like it really, I've seen it shut down some social situations.

Speaker 16 And it's because people just aren't thinking.

Speaker 62 Like, don't be so ignorant.

Speaker 114 I don't think so, honey.

Speaker 20 That's one minute. Yeah.

Speaker 70 I mean, that's just, this is just, I guess, something that hopefully these people learn, relearn every year when like.

Speaker 124 they think about

Speaker 70 that in a more apparent way because it's summer, IDK.

Speaker 63 I don't know.

Speaker 60 I think when summer approaches, it like gets everyone in their head about their bodies.

Speaker 83 And especially, like, I don't know.

Speaker 113 I just think like gay men, because we often are casual around women with, like, because, like, you know, we're comfortable with them.

Speaker 55 Sometimes we say things about our own bodies or like, you know, comment on like a body culture, like in the gay community, which I think can be a little careless around women who have to deal with that 365.

Speaker 95 You know what I'm saying?

Speaker 148 It's just like, and so I just think it comes off a little disrespectful and a little, I don't know, just as if you're not thinking of the comfort of the people around you when you are so casual and like low-key body fascist.

Speaker 20 Yeah.

Speaker 99 You know what I mean? It makes people feel bad. So I just think gaze, a little high key.

Speaker 49 Chill.

Speaker 126 And also, no one's thinking about your body as much as you are.

Speaker 123 You don't need to vocalize it.

Speaker 85 I think sometimes people are like, oh, I better say this thing about my body because I know it's fucked up.

Speaker 133 Like it's probably not.

Speaker 138 And also no one is thinking about it.

Speaker 116 Right.

Speaker 55 So, cause once you bring those issues to the table, understand that someone else is going to be feeling those issues in a much deeper way.

Speaker 66 And especially women.

Speaker 114 I've just seen it really like shut down some things and it makes me feel not good.

Speaker 122 This is Bowen Yang's.

Speaker 110 A little bit random.

Speaker 114 I don't think so, honey. And his time starts now.

Speaker 130 I don't think so, honey.

Speaker 65 Azure.

Speaker 124 First of all, how do you pronounce it?

Speaker 49 Azure?

Speaker 51 Azure?

Speaker 56 Second of all, just say blue.

Speaker 72 I looked it up. It's just sky blue.

Speaker 70 We can say sky blue instead of putting too much, so to speak, sauce on and say azure, which is a name for a company. It's, it's, it's a name for a company first and not a color name.

Speaker 72 Do you know what I mean?

Speaker 70 It's like, it's too corporate sounding, azure.

Speaker 74 And I, it's just a random assortment of letters, A, Z, 30 seconds,

Speaker 140 R, E.

Speaker 19 First of all, to have letters A and Z in the same word is very powerful and it only is reserved for the best words, such as pizza, jazz crazy

Speaker 70 i don't know 15 i don't have other examples but azure does not belong in that pantheon of amazing words amazing plaza it is powerful when a word has a and z in it because it spans the entire alphabet in a way in a sense but not azure you don't belong up there and that's one minute do you agree with me can i say something i i'm i'm walking through it in the moment i don't know because i agree with you but there's something beautiful about Azure.

Speaker 64 No, but see, but listen to how I say it.

Speaker 174 Azure.

Speaker 187 Yeah, I wish that. You don't want to hear that all the time.

Speaker 70 I wish that's how it was pronounced, but I think it's pronounced Azure, which sounds crazy.

Speaker 100 And

Speaker 74 it is an inefficient way of describing a plain blue color.

Speaker 140 It's not like cerulean, which is a gorgeous word, by the way, for the word blue.

Speaker 65 There are all these words for the word blue.

Speaker 74 Azure is like so random sauce to me.

Speaker 65 Like, I don't like, it's always bothered me this word.

Speaker 106 Bowen, if you don't like your reality, change it.

Speaker 141 Say azure like me.

Speaker 82 You can live a fabulous life if you just so choose.

Speaker 107 I don't know.

Speaker 106 If you start saying azure, know that you've created a path forward for yourself toward happiness.

Speaker 74 Azure.

Speaker 70 That's not how it's pronounced.

Speaker 16 Azure.

Speaker 74 It feels like it's the name of a pastry or a company and it's not the name of a color.

Speaker 70 And for that reason, it should be a proper noun only and it should not be in the dictionary.

Speaker 127 It should be, it should just be like a startup.

Speaker 138 Well, I think this is all very azure of you.

Speaker 70 No, that's not even the right usage.

Speaker 106 I think you're actually being quite azure.

Speaker 141 At the moment, your azure is showing.

Speaker 148 Things of such an azure nature of which you speak.

Speaker 117 Oh.

Speaker 49 It's really azure.

Speaker 74 Such an azure nature of which you speak.

Speaker 88 You committed an azure against me.

Speaker 140 See, you used the word azure in like 10 different ways.

Speaker 70 None of them were in the color way.

Speaker 137 That's because...

Speaker 106 That's my issue.

Speaker 141 Let me reassure you.

Speaker 106 I can give you an assurance

Speaker 49 that your assurance

Speaker 92 is...

Speaker 50 inequitable right now.

Speaker 89 You're acting azure.

Speaker 95 oh well you've gone azure and they've gone azure if you know if you know

Speaker 122 if you gather my meaning i think he's gone a journey

Speaker 96 suddenly it's become a front runner for word of the year

Speaker 36 suddenly it has become a frontrunner it just it's a word that doesn't make but don't you don't you agree with me that words such as jazz pizza crazy amazing that those are all the best words yes.

Speaker 72 Those are some of the best words we have.

Speaker 63 And azure is

Speaker 70 not

Speaker 36 in that.

Speaker 49 How do you spell it?

Speaker 130 Oh, no, the spelling is universal.

Speaker 74 A-Z-U-R-E.

Speaker 119 Okay, well, I have to tell you, I'm getting like a Microsoft Azure.

Speaker 56 What is that?

Speaker 49 Exactly.

Speaker 72 This is what I'm saying. It's a company.
It's like a service.

Speaker 72 It doesn't sound like a color.

Speaker 139 It sounds like a corporate, shitty, fucking clinical ass name.

Speaker 76 And I'm saying that I like, can I say what I like?

Speaker 107 Azul?

Speaker 71 I like Azul.

Speaker 102 Bowen.

Speaker 36 Okay, so I just literally googled, is Azure a word?

Speaker 36 And it is.

Speaker 133 It is a bright blue color.

Speaker 82 And it also is a small butterfly that is typically blue or purplish with color differences between the sexes.

Speaker 49 I can only imagine that the purple are girls because pink.

Speaker 134 Now, listen, I think that you are not understanding that there's an opportunity here to franchise Azure.

Speaker 55 Because if it's not out there enough, let's make it out there. Let's try.

Speaker 130 I'm saying it's out there too much.

Speaker 70 I don't want it out there anymore.

Speaker 72 The SEO is terrible. You Googled Azure and the first thing that popped up was Microsoft, Azure, whatever that is.

Speaker 186 So what, who are they?

Speaker 106 They're not even that.

Speaker 55 Microsoft's not even that big of a deal anymore.

Speaker 16 It's all about Apple.

Speaker 43 You know what I'm I'm saying?

Speaker 36 It's like, we can't take on Microsoft.

Speaker 110 Please try me.

Speaker 104 I'm not, can I say something on record?

Speaker 143 I'm not worried about Microsoft.

Speaker 16 I'm not at all.

Speaker 132 Apple this, Apple that, Apple this, Apple that.

Speaker 195 I'll take them on for Azure.

Speaker 62 And in fact, can we get our lawyer on?

Speaker 58 I would like to file a lawsuit, a copyright claim. I would like to get legal about this and litigious even.

Speaker 19 Against Microsoft for the word Azure.

Speaker 77 I think we've lost the thread.

Speaker 125 This is Rogers versus Microsoft.

Speaker 113 And the only one will leave with the word azure.

Speaker 59 I'm telling you, readers, publicists, finalists, Katie's, Kyle's, and more, because there are more coming in the future.

Speaker 110 Oh, God.

Speaker 111 Start making azure a thing for Lost Coach.

Speaker 115 I'm serious.

Speaker 69 I just want to quickly shout out Audrey Hobart.

Speaker 116 Sue me. I love that song.

Speaker 110 Speaking of litigiousness.

Speaker 147 I'm loving that.

Speaker 96 You're loving this song.

Speaker 117 I love it too.

Speaker 64 I mean, it came out like a few weeks ago, but I'm late to the party, but the music video, have you seen the music video?

Speaker 36 No, I haven't yet.

Speaker 163 I love it.

Speaker 145 It makes me feel a little fuzzy in my head.

Speaker 77 Me too.

Speaker 69 Me too. But you should watch, watch the music video.

Speaker 3 It's phenomenal.

Speaker 67 We love Gracie.

Speaker 116 You know who Gracie said her dream podcast guest is for Lost Cult?

Speaker 107 Orna.

Speaker 70 And I said it was in the works, but Matt and I are kind of Matt more so was kind of afraid that she would analyze this to destruction.

Speaker 89 I think honestly, that might have been a reflection of where I was at the time, because I would love to have Dr.

Speaker 67 Orna on. Let's have Dr.

Speaker 110 Orna on.

Speaker 55 No, we should.

Speaker 66 And also, that would be really great. And also, Charlie XCX

Speaker 61 is on record on this podcast.

Speaker 63 She's saying she's the sexiest woman alive.

Speaker 70 She, she just, she and I just connected about that today, where she replied to my story and said, she's my God, my crush, my everything.

Speaker 43 Wow.

Speaker 79 Charlie

Speaker 70 stands Orna in the craziest way, as we know.

Speaker 96 I mean, why wouldn't?

Speaker 70 Orna is on everybody's lips?

Speaker 189 What was it?

Speaker 70 That was another one. It was like, go.

Speaker 33 She didn't write it down.

Speaker 90 Damn it.

Speaker 119 Oh, Becca.

Speaker 143 She says, lol. No, I'm sorry.
