Speaker 1 ding dong

Speaker 1 welcome to provincetown everyone

Speaker 1 we're gonna see you there

Speaker 1 interesting no one has come up to us and sang that does that mean it didn't stand the test of time Look, we're gonna keep coming back until it catches on.

Speaker 1 Tourism board, you don't have to pay us a red cent. All I know is we'll be here a couple days after this comes out.
If no one comes up to us and sings Province Town, we're going to see you there.

Speaker 1 We'll just know that we're not accepted here.

Speaker 1 This is a thing. I don't need to be embraced, accepted by anyone but me.

Speaker 1 But the fact is, we have been embraced by the community. We just had a wonderful time.
Oh,

Speaker 1 we went down to Womencraft's Provincetown. We presented them with the award for the Jamie Lee Curtis Award for Gusto, Enthusiasm, and Individuality.
It was a wonderful moment.

Speaker 1 Michelle got on the megaphone for the Daily Career Moment of Joy, Moment of Per Joy. 1234 p.m.
every day.

Speaker 1 And we were very, very honored to present her the award. And of course, we stopped into the shop.

Speaker 1 And,

Speaker 1 God, it was just a really beautiful experience. And then we had a lovely time at the Crown and Anchor, played bingo with Paige Turner, hosted by Paige Turner.
Didn't win bingo.

Speaker 1 Yeah, what's that about?

Speaker 1 Actually, my honest thing, so honey later. You know what I do like? and this is something I didn't really know in culture until we went last year somewhere where we played bingo.

Speaker 1 The bingo, the bingo markers, yeah, I like the bingo marker. Totally, I like that.
And do people really just own bingo markers to have when they play bingo?

Speaker 1 If you're a bingo person, if you're a bingo person, if you are finding yourself at,

Speaker 1 let's say, communities that embrace the mature set,

Speaker 1 trust and believe there's a bin full of bingo markers, but you know, did you ever have this growing up? Look at my hands. Oh, yeah.
It's got bingo. I can't do anything.
You have it all over you, too.

Speaker 1 Look at your forearms.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. There you go.
Okay, we're covered in bingo shit.

Speaker 1 We've got evidence of the crime.

Speaker 1 Evidence of the craft. Of the craft.
Women crafts.

Speaker 1 We'll get to the evidence of the crime later because this... forewarning will be an episode about

Speaker 1 the originally stars show turned Netflix megahead, the hunting wives.

Speaker 1 We have watched all of the hunting wives on this province town journey because you know you go on vacation with your friends, you pick something to watch.

Speaker 1 We started hunting wives, not and I had said on the previous episode, I did the first episode. Yes,

Speaker 1 I had no interest, and I had no interest, but then honestly,

Speaker 1 it's amazing.

Speaker 1 I enjoyed it. I don't

Speaker 1 regret watching it. I'm still going to sit with like the camp value of it.
Obviously, it's a camp,

Speaker 1 it's high nutrition value for camp.

Speaker 1 As for the other macros, I'm not sure. What do you mean by that? As for, I don't know.
We were just finding ourselves like, but wait a minute.

Speaker 1 If this person is this person, then their dad was this, but the mom was that, it was that kind of thing, but that's not what the point of the show is.

Speaker 1 And I have to actually call it right-wing big little lies. It's red state, big little lies.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 It is sort of pushing forward this new market for like red state content, which, you know, is just, that's just the reality we're living in. It was kind of giving like

Speaker 1 if you have a gun, you'll be okay. But it was also giving queer rights.
Like almost every other scene was box eating. Is eating box.
And I have to say.

Speaker 1 Let's just, we're okay. We're getting into it.
This is officially the hunting wives portion of the show. Begin.
Begin.

Speaker 1 Britney Snow, you will always be famous. Wait, can I say, like, in a real way, Britney Snow tore.

Speaker 1 I love Britney Snow. Oh, we've loved her since the beginning.
Can we talk about this? Like, did you remember, like, did they do, like, back in the day when it was, like, American Dreams?

Speaker 1 Remember back, remember American Dreams? Of course I remember American Dreams. Mandy Moore, also.
Whoa. Vehicle.

Speaker 1 Was it actually?

Speaker 1 No, no, no. American Dreams was a movie.
Mandy Moore was in American Dreams. Yeah, I'm talking about American Dreams, the TV show.
I don't that Britney Snow was in. Oh, I'm sorry.
Then we can't.

Speaker 1 We can't take this out. We can't take this out.
That's okay, but we were both right in a way. In a way, we were both right.
American Dreams was Mandy Moore, but American Dreams was Britney Snow's

Speaker 1 first thing when she was, I believe, a teen. And I said, I know that girl's a star.

Speaker 1 I've waited in the wings for Britney to snow to get this

Speaker 1 opportunity. Well, of course.
I mean,

Speaker 1 she's not new to this. She's true to this.
You didn't know from John Tucker Must Die.

Speaker 1 I always knew. From X,

Speaker 1 lest we forget Pitch Perfect. And I'm not, I'm on record as not necessarily being a Pitch Perfect super fan.
Interesting. But

Speaker 1 I think that had to do with other things other than, it certainly had to do with other things other than Britney Snow. Totally.
I am a Britney Snow fan. We are

Speaker 1 snorting up the snow that is Britney. I'm a snow addict.
I'm a snow addict. I'm a snowball.
I'm a snow queen for Britney. I'm a snow bunny for Miss Britney.
And for all my Kingdom Hearts heads.

Speaker 1 Stop. Is she also involved in Kingdom Hearts? I've told you this.
No, but I forget. She's Namine, and she is Hayden Paneter's counterpart.
Whoa, I get that for them.

Speaker 1 So, so Kyrie, Hayden Panettaire's character, spoiler alert, gets turned into a heartless in the first game, which means that her heart is corrupted by maleficent. Holy shit.

Speaker 1 And anytime a heartless is created into the world, a nobody gets left behind, which is the body, the husk that gets left behind when the heart is extracted and turned into a dark being.

Speaker 1 Kyrie turns back to herself. My God.

Speaker 1 But Namine was created in the process. And Namine is voiced by Britney Snow.
And guess what? She draws. She's an illustrator.
And Namine is huge in the lore.

Speaker 1 For her and for her, that casting director, can we just, the casting director of Kingdom Hearts, the series is, was a gay man. We have to, we have to.
Gay guys create culture.

Speaker 1 And we're in Provincetown and we're going to start saying it. We're not going to stop saying it.
If you're a gay guy,

Speaker 1 congratulations. Stand up.

Speaker 1 If you're a gay guy right now, stand up. If you're driving in your car and you're a gay man, stand up in the car.
Corner to the side of the road. You created culture.

Speaker 1 I mean, I will keep telling you: it's Hayden Panateer. It's Britney Snow.
It's Haley Joel Osman. It's

Speaker 1 Jesse McCartney. Wow.
Wasn't there someone else?

Speaker 1 Billy Zane. Oh, Billy Zane is huge in the culture, of course.

Speaker 1 Boring.

Speaker 1 Not Jonathan Bailey. Not Jonathan Bailey.
That was a different one. Jonathan Bailey's coming on Fancy 14.
That's also a Square Enix game.

Speaker 1 And then also

Speaker 1 Lance Bass as Sephiroth. Of course, of course.
Oh, Lance Bass as Sephiroth. I'm telling you, this is.
This is something I'll never forget. In terms of words together,

Speaker 1 I'll never forget Lance Bass as Sephiroth. You know, I've met Britney Snow.

Speaker 1 She doesn't remember this. But you guys met at a very queer place.
We met. See, this is how I knew the hunting wives was going to eventually one day become a thing.

Speaker 1 I met Britney Snow in passing at a Muna concert at the Greek, and I was on a date with America's Got Talent contestant, Benjamin, Captain Benjamin Hightower.

Speaker 1 Benjamin Hightower.

Speaker 1 But so, when you met her at the Muna concert, yep, sometime ago friends, through friends, you had a thought pop up in your mind where you said, I know hunting wives is going to be a thing.

Speaker 1 All I knew was I was like, She's at Muna, that rocks. And she was surrounded by lesbian women, right? And I was like, Okay, love this.
And I remember I walked away.

Speaker 1 I was excited to be on a date with such a handsome man. And we walked away.
I was trying to impress him, low-key. Nothing better than being on a date with you.
Nothing better.

Speaker 1 And he goes, I think that was Britney Snow. And I go, no, it was Britney Snow.
And we went back to

Speaker 1 our chairs at the Muna concert. Do you know who we sat in front of? Cher.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 1 Later on, years later, my vocal coach, Doug Pat, who helped us at the Culture Awards. So that was a big night.
And they performed Since You've Been Gone. Muna covered since you've been gone.

Speaker 1 Britney Snow was there. I was on a date with Captain Benjamin Hightower, who sang Pink Pony Club on America's Got Talent years later.

Speaker 1 We were in front of Doug Peck, who helped us sing the songs at the Culture Awards. This was a movement, not a moment.
That was one of those nights. Where do you think Malin Ackerman was that night?

Speaker 1 Melon Ackerman also starred Honeywell. I think she was somewhere

Speaker 1 getting ready. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Can we say we've been having a a big Melan Ackerman moment over these past couple of days watching her because you reach back into your mind, into the annals of your mind, and you realize how much Melan Ackerman has been there.

Speaker 1 Absolutely, she was the comeback, she was Juna, she was Juna in the comeback, she was baby girl,

Speaker 1 she was

Speaker 1 Catherine Heigl's sister in 27 dresses. Yes, she was.
You loved her in that Silk Spectre too, Majman, of course. Um, just an icon, an icon.

Speaker 1 I'm so to talk about the show, it's one of the craziest shows in American history. Yeah,

Speaker 1 The wigs are out of control.

Speaker 1 I'll say it.

Speaker 1 The wardrobe, the production design.

Speaker 1 I'm going to say cinematography.

Speaker 1 And

Speaker 1 I'm going to give it up for the VFX. Some of those, some of the gruesome moments had to have been VFX.
And it's so gruesome. It's gruesome.

Speaker 1 Can I say it's one of those things where you're like watching the show and you're like, oh, no, certainly we're not going to watch that graphic of a sex scene or we're not going to see one, see someone die that brutally.

Speaker 1 Whoa,

Speaker 1 this is the number one show in the world, right? Uh, currently, that is um

Speaker 1 something else, and then it's Wednesday. And oh, sure, sure, sure.
Anyway,

Speaker 1 it took and it was holding the top spot for a minute, but we're joining the hunting wives thing like a little

Speaker 1 bit late, but I think we needed it to simmer, I think. And uh, I mean, it's still simmering, we just finished it this morning.
I loved it. I loved it.
Great performances all around.

Speaker 1 Chrissy Metz, new discoveries for me. Can I say something? And consider this a spoiler alert.

Speaker 1 I can't believe they did Chrissy Metz like that.

Speaker 1 An Emmy-nominated actress. And

Speaker 1 the way her character sort of develops throughout the season is

Speaker 1 just so tough because it's like, well, you did her like that. You know what I mean? I also love that, like, this goes for everyone involved.
The accent is like, up to you. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 It's like, it's up to you if you want to do the Texas accent. Do you think every take was, let's do a fun run? Let's just do one for fun.

Speaker 1 I was like, let's do one for fun and just pretend you know what the accent is. And we're not saying this about anyone in particular.

Speaker 1 We're just saying, like, across the board, like, the accent seemed like it was optional. Yeah.
And that did mean halfway through a take, you could just jump in or out of it. And I kind of loved,

Speaker 1 my theory is there is an there is a character who is Britney Snow's child.

Speaker 1 And I think they were, I think they were, I think it was a test for the audience to see, like, can you tell that we're Olsen twinning this?

Speaker 1 Like, we're, we're swapping this out for a different child actor every single time he's on screen. But I don't know.
Maybe, maybe we're just. And you know what?

Speaker 1 You, it was enough of a thing where I was like, is Bowen right? Like, is that a different person? Yeah. I think I'm right.
I'm not going to go back and do any digging on this. I just, whatever.

Speaker 1 When you know, you know. And we know that Hunting Wives was a cultural event.
I don't think I will watch it again, but definitely several people we were with on this trip.

Speaker 1 This was the second or third time they've watched it. They were like, no, no, no, I'll watch it again to watch you guys watch it.
Totally.

Speaker 1 I mean, does this scratch the itch of like a desperate housewife? In a way. Yeah, that's what I thought.
You know what I mean? It was like, it was like, oh, soapy, scandalous,

Speaker 1 can't be fun. Like, you can tell that they had fun making it.

Speaker 1 And like you know i'm checking all the socials from the cast and the crew and they're all like promoting the show and they're like the show is insane enjoy i'm like okay so they're all like and that that makes me think like they're all on the on the same page see and that's my thing is i'm like you have to remember that like people that are involved in these shows like know they're crazy that the shows are crazy yes yeah of course

Speaker 1 Okay, so you know how the world is a chaotic swirling ball of total stress right now? Well, we have a new Hulu show from Ryan Murphy that will give you the much-needed break from reality.

Speaker 1 And whether you know it or not, you are already completely obsessed. It's called All's Fair, and Ms.
Kardashian plays Allura Grant, the most in-demand divorce attorney in Los Angeles. Get it?

Speaker 1 It's All's Fair, as in All's Fair in Love and War, and she's a divorce attorney. Love it.
Now let's talk ensemble because Allura does not go it alone.

Speaker 1 She breaks off from a crusty male-dominated law firm to start her own legal coven with some absolute forces of nature. Naomi Watts, Nisi Nash-Betts, Tayana Taylor, and Glenn Close.

Speaker 1 Yeah, hello, Glenn Close.

Speaker 1 And of course, you need a villain, so say hello to Sarah Paulson as the nemesis. And these ladies are brilliant, complicated, fearless, and when they all come together, nothing can stop them.

Speaker 1 I'm talking about the lawyers on the show and the actresses playing them, by the way. But hey, if you're thinking this will be all courtroom drama and no drama drama, relax.

Speaker 1 Allura, that's Kim's character, has plenty of twists and turns in her personal life. Her professional life crashes into her personal one, and uh-oh.
So, how does this super lawyer fix her own mess?

Speaker 1 With a little help from her besties, of course. So, this series has it all.

Speaker 1 Scandalous secrets, high-stakes courtroom drama, more shifting alliances than Kim's other shows, some OMG twists, and friendships that rise above it all.

Speaker 1 And of course, everything is going to look amazing. It's got some unapologetic glam, a work-hard, play-harder lifestyle.

Speaker 1 We have to talk about

Speaker 1 a

Speaker 1 really shocking pegging storyline.

Speaker 1 This to me was, we rewound a lot of the show. For the Foley, but we needed to rewind this one scene several times just to make sure that we were all hearing what we thought we had heard.

Speaker 1 Do you want to describe it? There's a character,

Speaker 1 a couple who are very sexually liberated, and you know,

Speaker 1 it's quite nice, actually.

Speaker 1 I loved seeing it. I loved seeing it.
There's a pegging moment, and then

Speaker 1 really grounded intimacy because it was like

Speaker 1 there's an orgasm,

Speaker 1 a male or a penis orgasm, and then

Speaker 1 his partner,

Speaker 1 she kind of like pulls her hand out from under the covers. Yes.
Kind of like

Speaker 1 checks the grease on it. Yeah.
Checks to make sure.

Speaker 1 Let's just say this. Confirms that there was a Jaculet.
Uh-huh. And then a woman pegs a man.
A woman pegs a man. He comes.
She pulls her hand out

Speaker 1 from his dick. Yeah.
Wipes the cum. Yep.

Speaker 1 She pulls out and the pullout is, the withdrawal is. This is the sound.
and I'm sorry

Speaker 1 Am I wrong? No, that literally she she pulls the peg out of her husband's butthole and this is literally I saw Netflix

Speaker 1 go watch it. It's got to be what the seventh episode something like that.
Yeah

Speaker 1 That's the sound they make when she pulls out of his butthole. I said

Speaker 1 I've Has it ever been like that for you? Like, has that ever been the sound when someone pulled out? I can't say. Although this character um

Speaker 1 the the the the hole big was

Speaker 1 was on a big guy yeah and so maybe that it that's it like the acoustics are different a woman her big husband and when she pulls the peg out of his butthole

Speaker 1 i wouldn't describe my i wouldn't describe myself as having anal acoustics

Speaker 1 Just can't believe

Speaker 1 that they sat in a room and were like, okay, so to make this moment really pop and feel real, what do we have to do?

Speaker 1 What is it?

Speaker 1 It's not, but it's not going for realism. I guess you're right.
You know, like

Speaker 1 the wigs are

Speaker 1 an inker.

Speaker 1 The wigs are there to tell you, by the way,

Speaker 1 all of the only apps these people use are Uber, Instacart, Signal. And then

Speaker 1 the only drinks any of these characters will be drinking are a mimosa it's a mimosa in every scene like if women are getting together to have like a cocktail

Speaker 1 and they're not drinking a mimosa

Speaker 1 you're not watching this show

Speaker 1 they are having a mimosa every time or like some sort of yellow orange drink that's in like an alternate glass but like could be a mimosa i mean but let's just shout out All of these performances.

Speaker 1 What is her name? The actress that plays Callie. That's what I was just looking for because I realized

Speaker 1 I wasn't up to the internet.

Speaker 1 She won the show. She won the show.
Jamie Ray Newman, fantastic. She won the show.
Katie Lowe's, also, I think

Speaker 1 great work. Katie Lowe's, it goes all the way back to scandal.
Oh, yeah. So

Speaker 1 over-committed to what she's doing. Yes.
Like, shout out, Katie Lowe's. I have always loved you, even since Quinn on scandal.
Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 And then we have to shout out Dermot, of course.

Speaker 1 An actor named Michael Aaron Milligan doing really brave work at a trailer door, if you know, you know,

Speaker 1 showing full front. Oh, sure, sure, sure, sure, sure.
Yeah,

Speaker 1 every episode, this show gives you something where you're like, well, I have to get it. Yeah, actually, no, it's fantastic.
No, like,

Speaker 1 we're not even being snarky about it. We're just like, we're still processing what we watched, and it's...
It's phenomenal. There were parts where I was like, huh?

Speaker 1 But then every single time we hit play on a new episode, I was thrilled. Only eight episodes.
You can get right through it. There you go.
I mean, uh, we had and Britney Snow is legitimately good.

Speaker 1 No, truly fantastic work. And we know we've always been Britney Snow snow bunnies.
And you guys were all saying that I'm Malin.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you're Malin. Who do you think I am? You know who you are?

Speaker 1 Happy.

Speaker 1 I don't know if you're the murdered girl. Spoiler.
You might be Dermot.

Speaker 1 No,

Speaker 1 you hit me.

Speaker 1 Spoiler.

Speaker 1 I think I'm.

Speaker 1 You know who you are?

Speaker 1 You're Detective Wanda Salazar. I'm Wanda Salazar.
You are.

Speaker 1 There were too many characters in the show, I think. Yeah.
That's okay. And then that's what they need.
Like Desperate House. I said, how many? Like 75?

Speaker 1 I love when they talked about the libtards. Right.
I can't just, I can't tell if the show was like,

Speaker 1 should everyone have a gun or is it bad that everyone has a gun? Is there just so much casual violence and like justified murder that you're like, well, thank God this person had a gun.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, well, is gay sex the thing that leads to ruin or is it the thing that is beautiful? And, you know, it's like, it really does kind of, it's a Rorschach test to the audience. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's equal parts queer rights and also gun. Right.
It's Second Amendment and also Obergfell. Yeah.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 I mean, at this point, I was on a date once and this guy and I were just kind of like,

Speaker 1 you know what? Like, should we just

Speaker 1 prepare ourselves? Should we like go to a shooting range?

Speaker 1 I've been wanting to go to a shooting range. I can't bring myself to own a gun, but I would never, never, I would like to go fire a gun just to know what it feels like, just to have an experience.

Speaker 1 Right.

Speaker 1 I think that's all that's all attainable. Do you want to go? Sure.

Speaker 1 You and I shoot a gun.

Speaker 1 And we're amazing at it.

Speaker 1 That could be his slave. We've become Gun Gaze.
Yeah, yeah. Title of App.

Speaker 1 I don't know that there was ever.

Speaker 1 Sanatana Pada.

Speaker 1 Vasarai. Vasarai.

Speaker 1 I think. Kind of lesbian.

Speaker 1 For Padma to have like body doubles. For Abadala, I'm sorry, to have body doubles.

Speaker 1 That had to have been kind of like a little harem situation, too. Like, you're going to be me, and also

Speaker 1 we're going to scissor.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I guess. So, I mean, I just don't.

Speaker 1 I don't know. Anakin to me was gay.

Speaker 1 Explain. He was always whining and crying.

The Skywalkers had it. That's real culture number 70.

Speaker 1 yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah and uh remember that wow kilo is hot solo yeah yeah but she but he was also a skywalker wait okay now that we're like reevaluate now that we're being like a little bit more i don't know um

Speaker 1 broad in our definition of camp i mean no i mean honey wins is clearly a camp show rise of skywalker is a camp movie i've always said people need to put some respect i have always said that rise of skywalker was camp and that when they kissed at the end that like that was that was when it got good it's like everyone hates that movie for whatever reason.

Speaker 1 You guys, it's good. If you hate that movie, you're a baby.

Speaker 1 If you leave any Star Wars movie and be like,

Speaker 1 like, shut up, you baby.

Speaker 1 Like, go read Ursula K Le Guin. A lot of people being babies lately.
Can we just say that?

Speaker 1 Hey, hey, baby.

Speaker 1 You dropped your passive. You dropped your pacifier on the goddamn ground.
Put it in your mouth and get sick for all I care.

Speaker 1 I think, what would you call your inebriation level right now?

Speaker 1 Level, I suppose. Level, my level is level five.

Speaker 1 Level five. I guess I'm not like a six or seven because I can handle a little bit more than you, even though I had a couple more drinks.
Don't presume to know myself. You're dumb innocent.

Speaker 1 How about that?

Speaker 1 I

Speaker 1 need to not,

Speaker 1 I need to only ingest glutathione, beta-alanine, creatine before a workout,

Speaker 1 protein isolate after. Good luck.
I need to, I need to, what goes in is just as important as what goes out. And what's what goes out is

Speaker 1 people would pay top dollar. No, you know what I mean? Like, I, I've described my shits recently as poisonous.
Well, that is a diet thing, I'm sure. Yeah.

Speaker 1 What are you putting in? What kind of things are you ordering late at night?

Speaker 1 Just be honest.

Speaker 1 Taco Bell Bean Burrito. You do.
You do a a Taco Bell. Um, is it because of marijuana at night? Yeah,

Speaker 1 or, um,

Speaker 1 oh, I've been doing little like

Speaker 1 cheese plates at night while I'm watching my shows, my drugs. Cheese plates, I'll do like a Monchego, I'll do,

Speaker 1 you know, a soft cheese. And so you wake up in the morning and it's not so good.
And I'm weighed down, girl.

Speaker 1 I guess speaking of cheese and our reactions to it, we should talk about the end just like that finale, which I still have not watched. Well, Bowen, I want you to speak freely.
I actually will.

Speaker 1 Thank you. I know about, I've heard about Epcot played by the incredible Spike Einminder.
Spike Einbinder, a friend, plays Epcot in the show. I, first of all, I gotta say,

Speaker 1 don't love the whole thing of like, oh, there's obviously, there's like a non-binary

Speaker 1 character here, and they named them Epcot because I guess in this world, like all non-binary and trans people have like weird, fucked up names and are like, I just

Speaker 1 didn't love that. The attitude around trans people on the show is

Speaker 1 interesting. It's, I wouldn't even call it interesting.
I call it baldly negative and didn't love that.

Speaker 1 But I don't know if that's a response

Speaker 1 to the whole Chey Diaz, like debacle or whatever, but didn't exactly feel there was care towards the trans and non-binary community in that last episode.

Speaker 1 And just want to say, separating this entirely from like the way we feel about literally all the actresses that work on that show, who we adore and love and respect so much.

Speaker 1 Um,

Speaker 1 that was not great. The way to end that story, that was not great.
I mean, the fact that in the last six minutes of

Speaker 1 because I don't think they're gonna resume the story of Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte going forward, I feel like it's probably done. Don't forget Seema and LVP, sure.

Speaker 1 Not that's that's Lisa Vanderpump. What's her name? Don't forget, LVP.
LVP.

Speaker 1 Who's the third? Um, LTW.

Speaker 1 Miss Mama with the two dads. Yeah, uh, yes, whose dads, both dads passed away.

Speaker 1 All I know is, in the last five minutes of it, just like that, we saw an overhead shot of a toilet and poop floated up through

Speaker 1 the toilet bowl and overflowed. I look, I'm sure you guys all saw it.
If you didn't, understand that the way that's coming in

Speaker 1 is that a character named Epcot eats cheese,

Speaker 1 causes the toilet to clog. And then one of the last things we see in all of Sex in the Season.
In Carrie Bradshaw's New York.

Speaker 1 In Carrie Bradshaw's New York is poop nuggets float up through the toilet, overflow the bowl, and then Miranda ends up on her hands and knees and she says, what is my life?

Speaker 1 And I had the same question.

Speaker 1 I had very close to the same question.

Speaker 1 Now, what is the difference? You don't have to have a real answer for this, but like,

Speaker 1 is it just more disappointing? Because like that is campy, I'm sure.

Speaker 1 It's like poor taste and good taste or whatever in like the Santag way, but it's like, what's the difference between and just like that doing that versus Honeywives doing pegging slurp?

Speaker 1 You know what I mean? Because one, one has it established from the get-go and the other kind of had to do a hard left into that because

Speaker 1 how, how else are they going to like tell this story in a compelling way? guess it becomes water cooler talk because

Speaker 1 say what you will about that show, it was always water cooler talk every episode. Absolutely.
And here we are talking about it now.

Speaker 1 But my thing is just like, I actually like, I finished the episode, and the last few scenes are just of Carrie Bradshaw.

Speaker 1 And, you know, she realizes, she says in her voiceover, she goes, The lady realized she was not alone. She was on her own.
And I remember

Speaker 1 it ends with, you know, SJP as Carrie sort of like walking in her home and she sort of you know she's just like whatever and i i i finished the episode and i thought okay you know what i mean this was a show about a woman in her middle age whose husband dies and

Speaker 1 she felt that she had finally reached that stage of her life where she could be comfortable with her partner and live out her days and he died and she had to figure it out again so

Speaker 1 This series was about what happens when that goes down in your life. And I feel like in the totality of all of it, at least the show was about something.

Speaker 1 And they were able to end it with Carrie Bradshaw being like, I'm on my own, but I'm not alone. I have friends.
It's not the end of my life. I'm okay.

Speaker 1 She's experienced love. And that's what the show is about.
And it doesn't have to like.

Speaker 1 remain or whatever. Yeah.
So at least it was about something. Yeah.
That being said,

Speaker 1 that show had real potential in the first season and the first couple episodes, and then it just

Speaker 1 we saw poop.

Speaker 1 You would never have seen, would you ever have seen poop in Sex in the City? Poop,

Speaker 1 actual fecal. I don't think you would see poop in most shows.
It feels really undignified.

Speaker 1 Is that like a big fuck you from MPK being like, I don't know. Like,

Speaker 1 yeah, I wonder why. There must be a reason.

Speaker 1 That's what's puzzling me. And again, I'm, yeah, whatever.
I'm not,

Speaker 1 knowing what I know about the finale, I'm like, I think I'm good. I don't think I have to experience this.

Speaker 1 I kind of want you to watch it because I do want you.

Speaker 1 Because here's the thing.

Speaker 1 They had to have art directed the poop. You know what I mean? It's like, it's like a full-on.

Speaker 1 Someone in props brought over two different samples of shit. And they had to run it to make sure the poop floated.

Speaker 1 Like, and like, okay, and which, which, like, go to a director and go, which poop do you prefer? See, yeah, that's the thing. Is I'm like, and this is like, this is a beloved series.

Speaker 1 That, that, I don't know. That, it, it, that was, it was tough.
So that is the, uh,

Speaker 1 as far as we know, the end of that story. It can have been what they want.
It can have been what they thought the last episode was. I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 At a certain point, it's like, I understand why you guys all want to be like,

Speaker 1 Yes, we decided to end it this way, and haha, you know what I mean? Like, isn't this lovely, etc.?

Speaker 1 And I did think that you know, the powers that be that clearly were not empowered to make those decisions, like handled it as gracefully as they could. But ultimately, that cannot.

Speaker 1 I refuse to believe that they looked at a final cut of that episode and were like, Yeah, we're good ending the story this way, roll credits. No,

Speaker 1 yeah,

Speaker 1 well, that's the culture.

Speaker 1 Okay, so you know how the world is a chaotic, swirling ball of total stress right now? Well, we have a new Hulu show from Ryan Murphy that will give you the much-needed break from reality.

Speaker 1 And whether you know it or not, you are already completely obsessed. It's called All's Fair, and Ms.
Kardashian plays Allura Grant, the most in-demand divorce attorney in Los Angeles. Get it?

Speaker 1 It's All's Fair, as in All's Fair in Love and War, and she's a divorce attorney. Love it.
Now let's talk ensemble because Allura does not go it alone.

Speaker 1 She breaks off from a crusty male-dominated law firm to start her own legal coven with some absolute forces of nature. Naomi Watts, Nisi Nash Betts, Tiana Taylor, and Glenn Close.

Speaker 1 Yeah, hello, Glenn Close. And of course, you need a villain, so say hello to Sarah Paulson as the nemesis.

Speaker 1 And these ladies are brilliant, complicated, fearless, and when they all come together, nothing can stop them. I'm talking about the lawyers on the show and the actresses playing them, by the way.

Speaker 1 But hey, if you're thinking this will be all courtroom drama and no drama drama, relax. Allura, that's Kim's character, has plenty of twists and turns in her personal life.

Speaker 1 Her professional life crashes into her personal one and uh-oh. So how does this super lawyer fix her own mess? With a little help from her besties, of course.
So this series has it all.

Speaker 1 Scandalous secrets, high-stakes courtroom drama, more shifting alliances than Kim's other shows, some OMG twists, and friendships that rise above it all.

Speaker 1 And of course, everything is going to look amazing. It's got some unapologetic glam, a work hard, play harder lifestyle.
Every scene just sparkles. Everybody makes compromises in their lives.

Speaker 1 Lame men, underpaying jobs. Well, stop.
Just stop. And never settle for anything less than fabulous when it comes to your next streaming obsession.

Speaker 1 All's fair, now streaming on Hulu, and on Hulu on Disney Plus for bundle subscribers. Terms apply, drama guaranteed.

Speaker 1 I would say that we've heard music

Speaker 1 from an upcoming album that is going to bring someone back in a big way. We're very excited.
We received this music because we are very excited to have this person on the show. Yes.
Very soon.

Speaker 1 And I think everyone's going to be very excited. She is someone who

Speaker 1 we've rooted for. We all, as in we in the royal sense, like you've rooted for her as well.
This person looms large in the lost culturist lore. In the game show lore.
In the game show lore.

Speaker 1 And in really the Matt and Bowen and Extended Universe lore, this person has always loomed large. And

Speaker 1 new music is coming from this person.

Speaker 1 and

Speaker 1 their name is Demi Lovato.

Speaker 1 And we've heard

Speaker 1 what we can only describe as true bops. We've heard six songs.
Six songs and they are all truly sublime. And she's coming to the podcast.
It is on the books.

Speaker 1 So if it doesn't pan out, no worries, but you heard it here first. And if it doesn't work out, then that's fine.
I think it's going to pan out. I think it's going to pan out.

Speaker 1 But also we're we're sitting on some creaky chairs. So, you know,

Speaker 1 if that's intolerable to you, you know, just press stop now. It's P-Town.
It's P-Town, girl.

Speaker 1 We're doing our best. Let them creak.
Let them creak. It's like, let them cook, but let them creak.
Yes. Do you have anything to get off your chest?

Speaker 1 Do I have anything to get off my chest?

Speaker 1 I don't think so. I'm kind of just like.

Speaker 1 I'm kind of just like enjoying this week of

Speaker 1 peace. Have you been having a peaceful time i think so i think i could i could steal a nap or two you want to go to bed at some point but not now i'm not i'm not rushing for this to end liar no

Speaker 1 do wait am i think am i do i have something to get off my chest that like i'm thinking about that that you're thinking about just with this time that we have together no i mean uh i still encourage everyone to go see weapons

Speaker 1 i still

Speaker 1 i'm excited i i'm i i want to watch as many movies as i can before um

Speaker 1 before i lose the the time. You know what I mean? I'm just scrolling through photos.
I'm like, what's happened to me recently? I'm boring. I'm in my boring era.
No, I don't think that's true.

Speaker 1 No, it's okay. We've had a wonderful time like traversing Provincetown, going through a commercial street, et cetera.
I was actually just sitting outside looking at the sky, the clouds alignment.

Speaker 1 It is just so beautiful. We are in this wonderful home.
I'm looking out. You got to come down here if you haven't come down here.

Speaker 1 I know we're speaking to a lot of gay guys and girls who have gay friends. And so, and of course, queer women, but Providence Town really is a place to come.
Yes, absolutely.

Speaker 1 Maybe I'll buy a home here. Oh,

Speaker 1 I'll be stopping by.

Speaker 1 Well, let's go to the home.

Speaker 1 Let's see.

Speaker 1 Let's. Oh.

Speaker 1 Audrey Hobert, fabulous new album. Have you been listening to it? Yes.
I haven't gotten a chance to listen to it yet. Give your impressions.

Speaker 1 Just a great. So people who don't know, Audrey hobert fabulous singer has um written songs for some of

Speaker 1 uh so me wanna be wanted we shouted her out before but who's the clown is the name of the album it's um i like that title great title great title i am not up to speed on the ethel vlana of it all

Speaker 1 i i kind of am but i think but lana has released the diss track is that true so lana del ray uploaded like a, you know, sort of

Speaker 1 what would you call it? It was sort of like a

Speaker 1 polemic. It was a diss track.
It's a track 13, and she tagged Jack Antonoff. And it was basically like Ethel Kane didn't like my Instagram post, and she was kind of just going off in the song.

Speaker 1 And then she revealed that Ethel Kane had at once made a comment nastily about her weight. And there is Ethel Kane and Lana Del Rey beef officially.
And Nikki Minaj is involved.

Speaker 1 Is Nikki Minaj involved? Yes, Nikki is now.

Speaker 1 but Nikki for a while was pro-ethel, and now I believe she's pro-Lana. Like, this is where you know it's, this is, this is why I've chosen to disengage.
I'm like, I don't need to really be reading

Speaker 1 her thoughts necessarily at this time

Speaker 1 in the year 2025.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 1 are there still Barbs?

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Oh, for sure.

Speaker 1 Do you think that the Barbs numbers have taken a hit?

Speaker 1 I'm not following that. Yeah, right.
You know, yeah.

Speaker 1 This is my thing. Remember back in the day,

Speaker 1 we were standing so

Speaker 1 we were soldiers for Nikki. Yeah.
And then it just became all too much. I mean, we'll always have the moments.
We'll always have the moments, I guess. But I will always remember those times.

Speaker 1 I'll always remember those times. When we rip Pearlman's revenge,

Speaker 1 say faggot.

Speaker 1 Well, that was an Eminem.

Speaker 1 And he said that many times. It was on a microphone.
Well, my God. Yeah.
So the Ethel, I can't say that I'm that

Speaker 1 up to speed on what Ethel Kane does.

Speaker 1 I should probably.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 it's good. So this one, this new album, Willoughby Tucker Will Always Love You, is a prequel to her debut.

Speaker 1 Just tells the story of,

Speaker 1 you know.

Speaker 1 Preacher's Daughters, the first album, tells the story of,

Speaker 1 I guess I, maybe I'm not super clear on this, but it tells the story of a persona through Hayden and Adonia, who, which is Ethel's real name,

Speaker 1 sort of like falling in love with this person. I find Ethel very

Speaker 1 Ethel is the Ilias

Speaker 1 as the Shoba's name.

Speaker 1 Hayden and Adonia is the

Speaker 1 name of Ethel.

Speaker 1 I'm a little drunk.

Speaker 1 But I find Ethel, I've always found Ethel very endearing, super smart. She loves Zelda.
Oh, so the huge win for you. Huge win for me.

Speaker 1 She has an unboxing video that I watch all the time as ASMR.

Speaker 1 She unboxes the special edition Zelda Switch Light.

Speaker 1 And she talks about her love of the Zelda game. She owns the Zelda edition of every single Nintendo console.
Oh, wow.

Speaker 1 She's a head. She's a real Zelda head.
Whatever happened with the Zelda movie? Is that still happening? It's happening. They cast their Lincoln Zelda.
They're going young, young, like early teens.

Speaker 1 Do we know who the casting

Speaker 1 is?

Speaker 1 Zelda Movie Casting.

Speaker 1 Yeah, these are some two kids. They are some two kids.
Bo Braggson as Zelda, really pretty girl. Benjamin Ainsworth as Link, really, really heroic-looking young man.

Speaker 1 Will this be one of the biggest movies? Depends. I think Nintendo is moving into more of the entertainment space and the theme parks, as you know.

Speaker 1 i think they are kind of trying to diversify a little bit their offering aside from video games um in terms of

Speaker 1 uh the mario because the mario movie did so well right um they're really going in on zelda they are obviously really invested in the theme parks um

Speaker 1 i mean i guess my thing is like what this i feel like in the mario movie did well because it was able to be funny is zelda going to be able to be funny is it is it going to feel like it's taking itself too seriously

Speaker 1 The tone is so hard to strike. It is.
It's like not a dialogue-heavy series. You know, it's mostly about like, I bet it'll be very quiet and expanded.

Speaker 1 It'll be a very gentle fantasy movie, which I'm excited about because we don't have a lot of those. Fantasy movies are so like,

Speaker 1 like intense, like world building.

Speaker 1 This is who that wizard is. You know, it's like, it's, it's so much information at you.

Speaker 1 And the Zelda games are really about like, for lack of a better word, vibes it's like you're a little boy on a farm you know in a farm town and then you get them you know you get the you learn about the triforce or whatever like i i i do like that take on fantasy and uh

Speaker 1 yeah i'm i'm i'm curious is an ocarina a real instrument yes it is it is it is i could play one you could could you get me one for christmas yes would you buy me an ocarina i would buy you an ocarina you like that yeah i think you like ocarina because the word ocarina yeah i do think that i came up with a new drag name and Bowen did what he does whenever I say a new drag name for me, which was immediately dismiss it.

Speaker 1 But let me know what you guys think. Pola Rising.

Speaker 1 And I said, yeah, like the common female name Pola. Excuse me.

Speaker 1 You have this thing where you think that in order to be an effective drag name, the first name has to be like Anne or Myron. I don't think you have to be effective, but you.
Pola Rising?

Speaker 1 You always state the drag names as if they make total sense. And the reason they're funny and great is because they don't make sense, but you're like, you guys, right? Like, it works.
Polo Rising.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, well, no, I have to poke holes in it because you're

Speaker 1 presenting in

Speaker 1 a perfect name. I became a drag queen.

Speaker 1 I would totally take

Speaker 1 a half to take it. No, you're not.
Do you know that if I became a drag queen, I would be so, I wouldn't even need to speak to anyone in my life.

Speaker 1 if i became a drag queen i would be rupaul i would be so big i would fly as high as the skies i'd be bigger than the whole sky goodbye goodbye goodbye i guess should we talk about taylor she pissed me off when she said there was a countdown on her website and i got all excited i got on my instagram i acted like a goddamn fool i was like we ride at 2 p.m etc and it was a new vinyl pressing after i got so excited about the whole life of a showgirl era, because I can't believe it's going to be Max Martin, 12 tracks, 12 focused bangers.

Speaker 1 It's what I've wanted for a long time. We were both excited about what it was going to be giving.
And then I thought,

Speaker 1 wow, maybe she's going to release a new song while we're here in P-Town.

Speaker 1 People were girding their loins around us, being like, oh, God, this is going to be a new Taylor song. I had the speaker ready.

Speaker 1 We were ready to go.

Speaker 1 Now, can I ask, did you take down those stories? I did.

Speaker 1 I was embarrassed. That's a real shame.
No, yeah, I was really ashamed because I was like,

Speaker 1 someone sent, I've probably obviously Jared being like, oh my God, there's a new countdown on Taylor's website. I'm thinking it has to be a single.
So I put it on my story. I even get on my story.

Speaker 1 I say, mute me, bitch. Like, you know, get ready for me.
I'm coming, etc. I do feel like people are so fucking annoying about Taylor Swift.
Like, okay, you don't like it. Shut the fuck up.

Speaker 1 And I was just like, I'm going to enjoy this. So few things to enjoy in life.
Please, dear God, let me enjoy this collection of pop music, which it is.

Speaker 1 But then I do the most. I say how excited I am.
And she just is like, it's a vinyl pressing. And I was like, okay, I guess I'll continue to wait.
So that was just salt on the wound, right?

Speaker 1 Because you're thinking about this in terms of like,

Speaker 1 I've done a lot of work to arrive at a place where I can be excited publicly about a new Taylor Swift moment. And the fact that

Speaker 1 she had kind of proven these people right

Speaker 1 was what was annoying. No, she didn't prove anyone right.
It was just, for me, it was just like, oh, I, I, I'm so you aren't even allowed to be excited. No, and, and that is the energy.
It's like,

Speaker 1 when people make me feel bad,

Speaker 1 I still think it's interesting.

Speaker 1 And I understand that you might not think it's interesting for me to be like, yay, Taylor Swift. But I do think it is less cool to be like, fuck this thing that everyone likes.

Speaker 1 And I'm always going to be like that i am always going to be the person that's like if you are the type of individual that is out here being like

Speaker 1 you and that thing that you and a lot of other people like that is you know not imagine it's just it's just it just to me is like it's a stasis i don't want to occupy i never want to be like oh you're excited about that thing you're stupid like to me that's like the antithesis of everything that who that of who i am of like honestly what this all is it's just is like annoying and i hate it and so then i got all excited about her announcing something new and i was like ha ha yeah i'm ready to go let's go and then it was a vinyl pressing and i was like okay well i will continue to sit quietly totally i've been humbled

Speaker 1 but i'm still excited yeah did you watch the interview with travis I did not watch anything. I kind of, I got, I kind of got the, the, the, the big poll quotes.
I did watch it.

Speaker 1 Um, but yeah, I mean, it'll come. October's not that far away.
No, it's fine. We're all fine.
We're all fine. Grammy submission deadline is in the end of August.

Speaker 1 She'll probably release something before then. I don't think she will.
I think she's going to allow Sabrina to have her runway. I really do.
I think she's. And Gaga.

Speaker 1 She's got a lot of daughters in the mix. Like, I think Sabrina and Gracie are in the mix in a big way.

Speaker 1 Gaga's her cousin. And I think she respects Gaga so much.
I think she knows this is not her.

Speaker 1 This Grammy race is not her fight.

Speaker 1 And I think she will wait. She's given everyone a lot of time to absorb the fact that she's going to come hard with an album.
And I do think that

Speaker 1 she seems more confident about this than she has in something in a very long time.

Speaker 1 Not to say that she hasn't seemed confident, just to say she seems ultra confident in the fact that she and Max Martin and Shellback, who are the best pop music producers that exist.

Speaker 1 I feel good saying that.

Speaker 1 They've... you know, created a focused 12-track album that will probably be all bangers.

Speaker 1 You can choose to not enjoy that or not. I mean, it's not up to me.
Right. But it's, I think you're talking about something where people are like reaching out being like, um,

Speaker 1 not you liking to. Yeah,

Speaker 1 it's not new news and it's also not fun.

Speaker 1 Well, it's just this, it's this political theory, sorry, where it's like, oh, and

Speaker 1 in late, late, late stage capitalism, it's like, when you have no political will to exercise, then you're going to, you think you can exercise consumerist will, which is like saying, like,

Speaker 1 which is just having an issue with any kind of pop culture for any reason, which we dabble in sometimes.

Speaker 1 You know, we just kind of talked about and just like that, but I think we're not doing it in a sort of like, as a reaction to like certain things, or maybe we are, but it's just like if and just like that was good,

Speaker 1 we would not make anyone feel bad for liking it. Yeah, right, but it's, but we're not gonna say that and we're not making anyone feel bad.
If you do happen to like and just like that, please enjoy it.

Speaker 1 I would love to hear from you. Yes.
If you actually thought and just like that was good, please send in a voice memo saying why. And don't do it as a joke.

Speaker 1 We will not make fun of you. We just want to hear you out.
Even the hunting wives. I mean, like,

Speaker 1 did you look it up? What did it have on Metacritic? 72. That's high.
Very high.

Speaker 1 And I

Speaker 1 am.

Speaker 1 Curious about that. It's high when you look at what the wigs look like.
You know what I mean? It's like when you see. Those wigs are docking at least 40.
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 You can't get higher than a 60 when the wigs look the way they do on when you can see the hairline. You can see the real baby hairs poke out of

Speaker 1 the lace question mark.

Speaker 1 If there was lace to begin with, our joke was like, someone was like, who is that actor? And we were like, oh, that's a Vancouver local. Where did they shoot it? I think Asheville.
Asheville.

Speaker 1 The beautiful city of Asheville. I loved every second of the show.
I want distress. And I have to say, like, you know,

Speaker 1 ultimately, it is my kind of program. It is made for us.
Yeah. The only thing we're kind of unsure about is, and the show does a really good job of like threading the needle.

Speaker 1 Like, it'll appeal to any sector. Yes.

Speaker 1 Is this pro-guns, pro-queer, or is this anti-guns, anti-queer? You can't tell what it thinks.

Speaker 1 Oh, God. I mean, I guess we'll settle for it.
One thing I do stand by is that any given scene of the show could end in one character quietly to themselves going, fuck.

Speaker 1 It's great. Every scene is so stressful.
And then it ends in an individual just, fuck.

Speaker 1 But it's, I mean, it's great. I mean, there's no better period on a sentence of a scene than fuck, fuck.

Speaker 1 And ultimately, I leave only Happy for Britney Snow. Oh, yeah.
And Malon. Yeah.
Listen, I tore it up. Make Hobb, the writer of the novel.
Hope you're getting a fat chuck.

Speaker 1 And it ends differently than the novel. That's right.
I love it when they do that. I love it when that happens.
When you sneeze? When I sneeze. Do you love the feeling of sneezing?

Speaker 1 Well, it's supposed to be orgasmic. Oh.
It's supposed to be the same kind of like sense, but you know, somatic experience as well.

Speaker 1 I just can't stop thinking about how much like cum and

Speaker 1 like gay nipple there was in Hunting Wives. Like you really need to.
it had all the bodily, um, yeah, merry merry fuck, kill. Oh, wow, I love this.
Come

Speaker 1 poop nugget and just like that, or on gay nipple.

Speaker 1 I'm in a merry, come.

Speaker 1 I'm gonna fuck, I'm gonna marry.

Speaker 1 I'm gonna fuck nipple, and I'm gonna kill poop nugget from just like that.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, out of the craziest things we've seen over the past week, like if it's merry, fuck, Kill, the dildo coming out of a man's butt on Hunting Wives, the poop nugget from in just like that, and

Speaker 1 what's the third?

Speaker 1 Shiny Bug Vinyl.

Speaker 1 Shiny bug vinyl. I'm going to marry.

Speaker 1 I'm going to marry the dildo. I'm going to fuck the shiny bug vinyl variant because you don't know what it could be amazing.
Can I tell you? And I did order that. You did? I did order it.

Speaker 1 Because I already, I had already, you did order it. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I had already ordered the original. Yeah.

Speaker 1 See, I was going to wait in line. I was going to wait in line in the original drop.
I was like, let me just, whatever. And then I was like, okay, I'll buy the book.
And I like this cover. It is.

Speaker 1 I mean, the cover is amazing. And by the way, Taylor's visuals for this are great.
I love it. I love it.
And then the theme is the theme.

Speaker 1 The theory is she's going to go do the sphere, which I think feels right. Because how do you tour after Eris? No, exactly.
And I don't. It's the showgirl thing, the Vegas thing.
Exactly.

Speaker 1 I said said that

Speaker 1 as soon as August 12th, as soon as that dropped, I was texting you and Jared. I was like, she's doing Vegas.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 There is the Elizabeth Taylor of it all, which is track two. That calls back to

Speaker 1 and ready for it. She speaks about Britain to this Taylor.
There's lots there. Lots there.

Speaker 1 Lots there. So you said, I'm sorry, in the first game of Mary Fuck Kill, you said Mary come, fuck gay nipple.
And definitely killed the poop knocker. I was gonna, I'm gonna marry gay nipple.

Speaker 1 I'm a boop gay, of course. Yeah.
And fuck calm. You're going to fuck calm.
Sometimes calm is what I want. Sometimes it's not.

Speaker 1 I can't say I've been like a big calm guy. Yeah.
But the week is young. The week is young.

Speaker 1 Should we do it? I don't think so, honey. We're going to make this an hour-long episode this time.
Yeah, we're on vacation now. We're on vacation after all.

Speaker 1 My phone's charging. Do you have yours? I don't.
I mean, what we could do is we could do one of those like. We'll let Malin go get his.

Speaker 1 By the way, there's a pair of binoculars in the home that we're staying in, and we haven't used them, but I bet we could see a lot of stuff. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay, so you know how the world is a chaotic, swirling ball of total stress right now? Well, we have a new Hulu show from Ryan Murphy that will give you the much-needed break from reality.

Speaker 1 And whether you know it or not, you are already completely obsessed. It's called All's Fair, and Ms.
Kardashian plays Allura Grant, the most in-demand divorce attorney in Los Angeles. Get it?

Speaker 1 It's All's Fair, as in All's Fair in Love and War, and she's a divorce attorney. Love it.
Now let's talk ensemble because Alora does not go it alone.

Speaker 1 She breaks off from a crusty male-dominated law firm to start her own legal coven with some absolute forces of nature. Naomi Watts, Nisi Nash Betts, Tayana Taylor, and Glenn Close.

Speaker 1 Yeah, hello, Glenn Close. And of course, you need a villain, so say hello to Sarah Paulson as the nemesis.

Speaker 1 And these ladies are brilliant, complicated, fearless, and when they all come together, nothing can stop them. I'm talking about the lawyers on the show and the actresses playing them, by the way.

Speaker 1 But hey, if you're thinking this will be all courtroom drama and no drama drama, relax. Allura, that's Kim's character, has plenty of twists and turns in her personal life.

Speaker 1 Her professional life crashes into her personal one and uh-oh. So how does this super lawyer fix her own mess? With a little help from her besties, of course.
So this series has it all.

Speaker 1 Scandalous secrets, high-stakes courtroom drama, more shifting alliances than Kim's other shows, some OMG twists, and friendships that rise above it all.

Speaker 1 And of course, everything is gonna look amazing. It's got some unapologetic glam, a work-hard, play-harder lifestyle.
Every scene just sparkles. Everybody makes compromises in their lives.

Speaker 1 Lame men, underpaying jobs. Well, stop.
Just stop. And never settle for anything less than fabulous when it comes to your next streaming obsession.

Speaker 1 Bowen ready. Start your shopping now.
Yep. This is Bowen Yang's.
I don't think so honey. His time starts now.
I don't think so honey, bingo. How come I've never once in my life won that game? Racist.

Speaker 1 And it's a racist game. And it's a game where I'm sorry, at least at the bingo we were at, no one's rooting for each other.
Everyone's out for themselves at bingo. Very individual.
Stressful.

Speaker 1 We've said we've loved the stamps, but the

Speaker 1 act of stamping of, you know, your eyeline going, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop. Oh, do I have B7?

Speaker 1 Like, like, that whole, like the scanning of the numbers, 30 seconds, you know, three up to six different bingo grids and cards stressful and some some of these some of these bingo hosts i'm not naming names go too fast paige turner or they stop not paige turner we love you page you were turning the page too fast but paige paige you were you were you were you were throwing in brilliant banter but then you would like say like four numbers in such quick succession that it was hard to keep up that's all no notes though you do your thing five seconds we're hoping you're getting paid a lot but bingo i've never won and so like what's your beef with me bingo also

Speaker 1 you're a dog you're not a game bye and that's one minute. I love holding Boen Yang's phone because I was getting little buzzes and I realized your grinder is popping off, girl.

Speaker 1 Girl, all these, all these people saying,

Speaker 1 did you bring your iceberg costume? And I went to. Didn't they say that? Will you fuck me?

Speaker 1 How about that?

Speaker 1 What if someone's kink was to fuck you with the iceberg hunt? I would say that is in an archive

Speaker 1 that I don't have access to. They want to fuck Fanny Fanny.

Speaker 1 And bend over, over fanny show me that fanny oh show me that hole fanny do you think fanny the wicked character

Speaker 1 got into it at shiz you think he was having gay sex i think he was very lonely i think you know like many people he his cruelty was a shield is this where you revealed that um fanny has a bigger story and wicked for good

Speaker 1 there's a bigger gayer story you know what i said actually at a recent unreleased thing Oh my God.

Speaker 1 We were just doing, we were, we were just like doing like a cast sort of like roundtable. And

Speaker 1 I was kind of gagged. And I think, I think my castmates were gagged as well.
They were like, what are your, what are your big takeaways from working on these films? And I said, you know what?

Speaker 1 I learned from these films, like the

Speaker 1 sort of

Speaker 1 the really terrible power that cruelty has. Cause and I kind of, cause, cause I, because I looked at everybody, I was like, I think

Speaker 1 there's like, obviously like deception and subterfuge. And I was like, I looked at Michelle Ya, I looked at Jeff, Goldman.

Speaker 1 I was like, you know, Morable and the Wizard, like, you know, they present themselves as like allies at first, but then they turn.

Speaker 1 But I was like, I think my character is like maybe the only like cruel one.

Speaker 1 Like

Speaker 1 my and Broadwin's character, Fanny and Chenchin, I'm not to like aggrandize the roles too much.

Speaker 1 They are cruel. Yeah.
And like. And honestly, like I've said this before on press.
It's like, it did feel bad. And I would have to go apologize to Cynthia.

Speaker 1 Like, I was like, I'm so sorry that felt so bad didn't mean to you for whatever people want to project onto me that when if anyone thinks i'm a mean person out there because of the roles i've played you play cruelty because i well no because i guess like i'm i'm bitchy sassy whatever on this and it's like everyone assumes that i'm mean no one assumes that no like a lot of china like when i was in china like the social media was always like well he seems so mean and like and i'm like wait it's a gay thing it's a gay no it's not even a gay thing like i was like i like visited my cousin i have a cousin-in-law who like runs like a daycare for neurodivergent kids.

Speaker 1 And like, we took a picture there and she posted it. And people were like, oh, my God, this is so sweet.
And this is so weird because Bowen seems so mean in real life. And I'm like, fucking crazy.

Speaker 1 Everyone almost. And so, whatever.
I don't know why I'm on it as tangent. But it's like, well, I was asking if you feel he gets a big gay moment.

Speaker 1 I think we all hope that Fanny dies. Yeah.
I think we all hope to see Fanny dead in the film. Fanny dead in the film.
What I want is for Fanny to be dead in a stampede. I want the animals.

Speaker 1 Oh, but you haven't seen weapons. I was going to make a weapons comparison.
There's a gruesome, satisfying death in weapons that I'm like,

Speaker 1 I want that for Fanny for sure. You can spoil that for me.

Speaker 1 Spoiler alert for weapons. Amy Manigan gets

Speaker 1 toe up. That's all I'll say.
Yeah. I heard about this.
Because you know that whenever it's a horror movie, I can't see it. I just go ahead and read the

Speaker 1 spoilers.

Speaker 1 What's really nice about weapons, though, is that you watch the ending ending and you go, and I that's what I said in the last episode, so I'm gonna spoil it.

Speaker 1 It's like these kids, and it's Amy Madigan, and it's like they had a blast shooting.

Speaker 1 And then there was, there were photos from Set where one of the kid actors posted, you know, like little like, you know, uh, back, you know, BTS photos where Amy is like flashing a peace side in her crazy old lady outfit, like with all these kids smiling.

Speaker 1 I'm like, look, she's been having a moment, she's been having a moment. No, I'm so happy.
They're predicting her first supporting.

Speaker 1 They're saying as best supporting actress, Amy Madigan is a real contender. Yeah, but I but I totally see it because she has some scene work where I'm like, fuck, this is some iconography.

Speaker 1 And a beloved actress. Like, I didn't actually realize, like, I didn't remember that she was Filled the Dreams.
But she's got like an iconic scene of Fill the Dreams of like a town hall.

Speaker 1 Like, she's been like a real, like a journeyman actress, they call it. What's a hot couple? Amy Madigan and fucking

Speaker 1 Ed. What's his name? Ed O'Neill.
Ed O'Neill. No, no, no.
No, Ed Harris. Ed Harris.
Ed Harris. Sorry, not Ed O'Neill.
Sorry, sorry, sorry. I was going to say,

Speaker 1 yeah, another Ed, but Ed Harris and Amy Madigan. That's a hot.

Speaker 1 Really good. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
