Speaker 1 We are. Coming at you fresh off of the SNL50 after party.
Literally, it happened, it ended not 12 hours ago. Yeah, we were technically still probably freaking buzzed.

Speaker 1 Amount of gin and tonics we had. What is my thing with gin and tonics lately? No, we were 1902.
We were pounding the way.

Speaker 1 Very British of us. So, apropos.
Apropos. I didn't see our guests drinking gin and tonics.

She was on another level.

Speaker 1 I saw her with the martini glass all night. Classy.
Classy girl. Classy girlina.

Speaker 1 This actually is a monumental day. I have been waiting for this.
Me too. Well, I met our guest

Speaker 1 at an SNL after party, and immediately I was like, the vibe is impeccable. The vibe is impeccable, also instant friendship.
Instant friendship. And then,

Speaker 1 so it was the three of us plus

Speaker 1 Zoe. Yeah.
Can we mention her by name? Zoe plus, I'm like, you really are being so compliant.

Speaker 1 But by not speaking,

Speaker 1 please continue to be compliant. This is great.
And it was the four of us plus Celeste Yim, famed SNL writer. Oh.
And it was the five of us being a little unit all night.

Speaker 1 And anytime y'all would leave to go great a drink at the bar, don't speak. Celeste, we would just, we would all check any reach with her and be like, I mean the DeMaldenbergs.
Love. Just come on.

Speaker 1 It doesn't get any better than that. Well, you know,

Speaker 1 what's happened, which actually really bonds people, is we've shared a dressing room to go through glam.

Speaker 1 Yes. So

Speaker 1 I've seen our guests through glam. Oh, and that can be the most vulnerable place.

Speaker 1 When you see someone with curlers in their hair, you see their soul. When you see a patchology

Speaker 1 gel

Speaker 1 under eye thing. I love that stuff.
You want to know why? It works. Sometimes.
Huh? Sometimes the bags do be staying. And you go, why did I put this slime on my face for 20 minutes?

Speaker 1 I'm looking, Amanda, anything? Okay. Can I tell you something? No one looks more like shit right now than me.
Than me. I am horrified.

Speaker 1 and when i look at the lights i think i know that's not right i this is gonna make me look like the crypt keeper's ugly cousin who isn't even on camera the thing about the crypt keeper he still is telegenic he's telegenic and he has but he's the most presentable of his family i'm gonna say one thing that happened last night and this truly happened

Speaker 1 There's so many things. There's so many things that happened, but I'm going to say one thing because I don't know how much to reveal.
There's a lot of light and a lot of darkness to reveal.

Speaker 1 We We were talking about like these ugly cryptkeeper types, and then I was thinking, wow, how many gorgeous people did we see? Guess who I feel my butt bump against their butt, bumping that.

Speaker 1 And I turn around, who is it? Al Franken. No, that would be the funny way to go about it.
Yeah, yeah. But this is the on-the-nose thing.
My butt touched Kim Kardashian's butt.

Speaker 1 That is so our butts hit, and I turned around and I said, Oh, that's Kim K. Y'all were Eric Stone Street and um

Speaker 1 Jesse Tyler Ferguson, not Jesse Tyler Ferguson,

Speaker 1 the dad and Modern Family. Oh, at O'Neill? Ed O'Neill.
Remember there was that Modern Family episode where they did like a moon landing? I really did

Speaker 1 the dollar of the Modern Family. They touched butts in the locker, the men's locker.
Right, right. And they touched naked butts.
Are you Eric Stone Street or are you Ed O'Neill? We were both clothed.

Speaker 1 Honestly, who has the bigger butt? You. Ed? Oh.
You think me? Between you and Kim? Kim's butt is bigger.

Speaker 1 Get out the measuring stick. Get out the measuring stick.
We got to move on. It's time to bring in our guest who, speaking of pop culture,

Speaker 1 and when you say Kim K, you say pop culture, has truly,

Speaker 1 I don't know how to say this, perfected the form of the interview. Perfected the form of the interview.
You break chicken out, you bring smiles out. Perfected the art of the edit.

Speaker 1 Uh-huh. This is Sean Baker found dead.
This is the new editrix queen

Speaker 1 from Hollywood. I would like to see Anora too.
I would like to see our guest in the edit room for Sean Baker's next film. Can I pitch this? Yes.

Speaker 1 Gad! Title of Epp.

Speaker 1 Honora 2, colon, Amelia. It's time.
This. She hosts Chicken Chop Date, the iconic Chicken Chop Date.
She is

Speaker 1 now a fixture and a welcome presence at any red carpet event, which is almost always more stressed than it's worth until you see our guest. Was killing the carpet last night.

Speaker 1 Killing the carpet last night with my girl, Matt Rogers. We were sort of, the glam bot was in between us.
Sometimes.

Speaker 1 We'll talk about the glam glam bot. But she,

Speaker 1 for the second year in a row, will be a correspondent at the red carpet at the Oscars.

Speaker 1 Can I talk now? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Everyone, welcome. Miss Lauldenridge.

Speaker 1 Listen,

Speaker 1 it's such a pleasure to be here.

Speaker 1 Long time no see.

Speaker 1 It's been about two hours. Two hours.
We're doing that one through ten on brain needs to come out of your eye.

Speaker 1 Yeah,

Speaker 1 my mouth is dry. Yeah.
My mouth is dry. My head is, but I just walked here from my hotel and it really put the life back in my soul.
Yeah. There's nothing to hit you sometimes for that to be.

Speaker 1 Actually, is jaywalking illegal still?

Speaker 1 I don't think it matters. I don't think it matters.
Well, how does the wind chill in New York compare to the wind chill in London? Oh, it's so much windier here. Yeah.

Speaker 1 The wind is stronger, more powerful.

Speaker 1 Oh, 100%. Because it whips around those big buildings.
It's the buildings are so big and they create the wind to be bigger. Right.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Yeah.
Are you like, you come here and you're like, okay, I can't wait to get back. What? To New York? No, to London.
Oh, no. I love New York.
Yeah, okay, good. Yeah.

Speaker 1 But like, I just, I don't know if I could ever live here full-time. Well, we would like,

Speaker 1 it's so full-on.

Speaker 1 How are we? How are we going to maintain a friendship? No, I know. I know.
I do. There is only one option.
I do need to move. That's the only option.

Speaker 1 I assume you can't really have a long-distance friendship, really. Because we're not coming to London all that much.
Why not? Oh, you're right. I actually have to say, I think we should go more.

Speaker 1 I think we should go more. I need to get back on.
I need to recalibrate my London experience because for a while it was. filming for Wicked.
And it was, it's one of the great cities of the world

Speaker 1 throughout history. Throughout history, yeah.
I do still associate with, oh, God, I'm living at Heathrow. Oh, God, I'm getting stressed out and I have to like figure out the rest of my week.

Speaker 1 And it was like, for a while, it was the site of my darkest moments. We, we shot the movies for a year total.
Michael does two of them. There's two of them.

Speaker 1 Just wait till next, till, wow, it's this year. Just wait till a few years.
Just wait till this yet. Just wait till this.

Speaker 1 Just wait. It's coming up.

Speaker 1 it's coming it'll be changed for good and that's just what i hear no you're right no we need to come to london more where are you you're you're a marylebone girl you grew up i grew up in marlebone but now i live in east london oh

Speaker 1 hackney yeah in hackney

Speaker 1 are you are you like a neighborhood fixture um i guess the pubs and the coffee oh i love the pub i'm in the pub like non-stop that's why when i'm in america that's what i crave i like crave the pub so much i'm like i need to go back into the pub you want a pie i don't want a pie but i do want the pub you You want the pub?

Speaker 1 I want a cider. Yeah.
Do you like cider? I actually do.

Speaker 1 I'm a hot toddy sort of fanatic. Oh, my God.
Love a hot alcoholic beverage. 100%.
Why don't they do mulled wine all year? That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 This is a huge question.

Speaker 1 I will always say I do get a little like nervous about asking a bartender to do that just because me being former industry, I do know it's steps involved in creating the hot beverage.

Speaker 1 What, like boiling the, boiling it, making it? Sort of. I mean, like, it's like, certainly there might be an area where there's already hot water, but like, you you know, it's just

Speaker 1 there's the cloves,

Speaker 1 there's the stick of

Speaker 1 cinnamon, cinnamon, there is the lemon. There is the oftentimes you have to put the cloves in the lemon if people take themselves very seriously.
Oh, it says an art to it.

Speaker 1 Certainly, there's preparation, there's art, et cetera. Right.
But like, it's, it's worth it when you get to the end of the rainbow. Now, what if, in theory, you fall in love with someone here?

Speaker 1 You know, interesting thought, actually, which I haven't been thinking about.

Speaker 1 Then I would just, I would just have to get to travel more. She loves her life where she is.
I know. I'm just, I'm just putting some hypotheticals out there.
We need to come more to you.

Speaker 1 I think we should stop trying to convince you to move here because like I would like to come here more, to be fair. I feel like I could come once a month.
You're invited.

Speaker 1 Well,

Speaker 1 you know, we need, that's why we need to do more award shows. We need to do more award shows.
We understand how to get you. Oh, you have your own awards.
Yeah. Yes.
That's true.

Speaker 1 Do you want to be nominated?

Speaker 1 You actually should. Oh, my God.
I feel like that's, for some reason, I'm going to say

Speaker 1 beneath you. Yeah, I was going to say, you need a bigger role at the culture awards.
No, it's only beneath you at our show. At our show.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 In every other capacity, it's like, well, there's no one better. But for us, it's like, you got to be on, you got to be in the full thing.
Do you love award shows in general? I think so. Yeah, same.

Speaker 1 I've always loved them. Like growing up watching them.
Like, I love, love them. Yeah.
It's such a gag to go to them now. Like, whenever, like,

Speaker 1 Bowen is nominated for almost every award. That's,

Speaker 1 but, but is it, we get to go to a lot of people? Well, we're very lucky we get to go to Shaf. And it is like, it's wild when you are in the

Speaker 1 midst of it because it's like there everyone is. Yes, and you get to meet so many people.

Speaker 1 Like, so I love like so many people that you're a fan of their work and then you get to meet them and like talk to them and ah, and it's love it. And then it's so exciting who's going to win.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Do you get nervous still with the celebrity of it all? Or have you now sort of reached a point where you've kind of met the biggest and so it's now less daunting and they know who you are.

Speaker 1 I don't really get nervous to meet celebrities. And I feel like that's why I've like enjoyed this job, or maybe I'm good at it because I don't really feel like I get starstruck that much.

Speaker 1 But I do, I feel confident in the room because I know I have, I'm there for, I've got my job. I'm there for a purpose.
I find it difficult when I go to events where I'm not working. 100%.

Speaker 1 Because then I'm like, oh, God, I feel, that's when I feel like a bit more overwhelmed by it all. Right.
Yeah. Yeah.
Like, give me a job, of purpose. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Like, for example, last night, I was like, oh, okay, well, I'm, I'm here. I'm doing the carpet.
Like, I'm got my SNL credentials. Like, this is incredible.
I feel like I should be here. Yes.

Speaker 1 Whereas I think if I wasn't doing that, I'd be like, what, why have I, what, what's happening? And then also, like, I wouldn't have been invited.

Speaker 1 But anyway, yeah, that kind of makes me feel a bit more confident. Yeah.
But no, like, I really do like meeting celebrities. Yeah.
Well, what was

Speaker 1 the overall bounce on last night? Yeah, what was the incredible? Like, just like, oh, and the after party.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God, the venue. Because Sabrina Company got up there and sang like a virgin.

Speaker 1 And then Heim doing Mustang Sally. Like, truly, it was one of those, because they're not always like that.
In fact, they're almost never like that. No, they're never like that.

Speaker 1 You think in your head the SNL after parties are going to be like that. And then it's like, you get an event like this, and people were really going.
It was, it was amazing. It was amazing.

Speaker 1 And it was ginormous. Right.
And every single person there was like legendary.

Speaker 1 It was and everyone was like laying loose and oh it was just it was just amazing and it went on so late went on till like five in the morning

Speaker 1 and then there we were and we had stayed and we had stayed but i will say i mean like we were saying that we were getting starstruck for the first time in a long time just like just because it was everywhere you turned there was just someone like

Speaker 1 wow wow wow i got i met andy samberg and that's why i wasn't there a great moment when i was actually really starstruck i was like you are the godfather of like virality. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And I'm like, wow, an honor to be in your presence. Were you like a Lonely Island fan? Yes.
I was a huge.

Speaker 1 Like, it was just, I just don't, I feel like when every time they released a song, it was like, there was nothing else in the world that was, that was there. It was only them.
You know, it was.

Speaker 1 I'll still listen to I'm on a boat. Yes.
T-Paint. Oh, my God.

Speaker 1 I love him. Have you ever listened to his tiny desk?

Speaker 1 Actually, I think

Speaker 1 it's one of the best ones ever. Like, no auto-tune.
Like, he has the best voice ever, and it's just sublime. And it was a while ago, too.
It was like before was like a thing.

Speaker 1 It was before Tony Desmond was tiny desk. Right.
Yeah. I mean, okay, this is the thing.
Lonely Island, only one tour right before COVID. And then COVID hit, I think.

Speaker 1 And it's like, I think we need to put the energy out there that they need to go back on tour. Cause it's like they don't.
That would be so fun. Right.

Speaker 1 Like, because they were saying, like, it's so interesting to hear our songs being sung by a crowd because that was never the experience. That was never why we put it out.

Speaker 1 It was only for in service to like a comedy bit or a sketch like it is a surreal thing to like do it in front of an audience and I think they should I wouldn't we we all encourage them to do it that would be so fun because they could also do bits like they could do sketches and stuff of course yeah like with it like they could do the they could do the music it could be a whole comedy and music extravaganza it could be like what the concert on Friday felt like yeah which I loved because it was so in the spirit of SNL like I loved Anna Gastire coming out as Martha Stewart to introduce Snoop you know what I mean like I loved loved the Bobby and Marty thrown in there.

Speaker 1 Like, you know, it's just, it felt, and then, by the way, just, you were in the same row as me. Yeah.
We had an iconic. We've really had just a weekend together.
We did. We were.

Speaker 1 I've seen just like non-stop. Every day I've seen you.

Speaker 1 I also think one of the reasons, well, as you know, like that, he's so talented as a musician. They all are.
And that's why it works.

Speaker 1 Like, that's why the comedy works is because they're actually so talented as musicians. And that's something you realize when on Friday as well, how beautiful everyone's voices are.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 And how like everyone's basically a musician in their own right. Yeah.
Just study. Like I, so we shot this thing for the show on Sunday, but we shot it on Wednesday.

Speaker 1 And just like between takes, we were just, you know, talking, chatting it up. And I was just like, I just innocently asked him, I was like, what are you, oh, like, what are you listening to lately?

Speaker 1 And then he like pauses and then like unfurls all these things. He's like, well, there's this Ghanian guy who like does a lot of big band music.

Speaker 1 And then there's Cindy Lee, this like drag artist who like has a like a rock band and she released like a two hour album that's like only available on youtube and like that's been like like he just has such an expansive no and like he knows all of his history back to like the 80s and 90s of like hip-hop and like jazz and like funk and like he's just a genius well that's why he and joanna knew some work yeah they're like those are music those are heads those are music heads so cool i mean i saw him last night and i was just like Again, the hook slapped.

Speaker 1 The hook in that digital short that you were in. And that was Rady Thawn.
It was so great. Yes.
It was just like, I was like, damn.

Speaker 1 Like, I think that was so much more formative comedically on like card generation than anyone realizes.

Speaker 1 That all, all of Lonely Islands. You got to tell him that he is the godfather of like viral comedy.
That's amazing. I'm just, I'm sure he was very happy to hear that.
Yeah, it was really amazing.

Speaker 1 We went to staz. And I'm going to say this, and I know he's listening.
That is one of the true beauties hunks of

Speaker 1 because you're always like, yeah, I have a crush on Andy Sandberg. And then you see him and you're like, but we have a crush on Andy Sandberg.

Speaker 1 That face, the bone structure. You know, I remember like just when he came out with his floppy hair.
There's something about a goofy guy. Oh, God, they're the best.
Do you like funny guys?

Speaker 1 Like, is that?

Speaker 1 No, I like unfunny guys.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I like funny guys, but they're hard to find. I just mean, like, is it? Oh, so it's not a rap if they're not funny.

Speaker 1 I think they have to make me laugh, but I also want them to laugh at my jokes and maybe that's more important to me. They're laughing at me.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 But then there's an implied self-made funniness in them that has to like be present for them to laugh at your jokes. You know what I mean? Yeah, totally.

Speaker 1 I do, I do think I need a man with a sense of humor. 100%.

Speaker 1 I feel like that's how I connect with it with anyone is over a shared sense of humor.

Speaker 1 But sometimes on your show, you are doing the legwork of like, I'm going to like really guide this in a funny direction.

Speaker 1 And like, my guest is someone who like is going to have to like just follow along with me. But like, I think my favorite interview of yours is with Cher.

Speaker 1 chair that was one of my favorite interviews because i what i what i will never forget is you asking her what does it feel like to be an icon and she goes it doesn't feel like anything

Speaker 1 so profound it doesn't feel like anything it doesn't feel like anything and she it was incredible like she just has the most amazing lines to feed you back like she's just so great and so quick-witted um so confident like she was kind of the perfect guest what was that day like it was like did you have the full like hour with her yeah the full hour but we shot that in paris it's the only episode i've ever filmed like in out out of the UK.

Speaker 1 Oh, I filmed one in Scotland, but um, but yeah, for Cher, I had to. And so we found a chicken shop in Paris, and yeah, we were there.

Speaker 1 And then she was kind of, she was a little bit late, but that was totally fine. I would have, I would have waited hours and hours.

Speaker 1 But then I was like, so I was then like pacing around in the chicken shop because usually like I get there like half an hour before I like go over my questions and like, and then they're here.

Speaker 1 And then because I was like waiting, it was like, oh my God, it's Cher. And then there were these two guys who were like hanging outside.

Speaker 1 And I was like to the security, I was like, can you tell those guys to like go away like they i don't know why they're here and like we got them to like move and then when chair came in the guys came in with share and they were her like nephew

Speaker 1 it was her posse it was her posse who had told her to do the show they the guys were like the reason she's here is because we were like you should do the show and you were like

Speaker 1 get those crepes off the chicken shop they step

Speaker 1 um but anyway yeah yeah because she had never watched the show

Speaker 1 and uh they had basically were like you she only did one piece of promo i think for like her christmas album there right and then she did chicken shop date and they were like you have to do it and she just sat down and she was like okay cool what's happening and i was like we just she she just didn't really i did she was perfect did she eat a lot of chicken i don't think she ate no do do guess no but she said she did like she does like chicken nuggets or she said her boyfriend loves chicken nuggets right

Speaker 1 she's been around a lot of chicken nuggets recently i would imagine like recently yeah she was like i've been around a lot of chicken nuggets and my boyfriend and his friends love chicken nuggets maybe there was some sort of festival where she lived chicken nugget festival, yeah, chicken nugget festival in Paris, probably the only option, yeah.

Speaker 1 Yeah, um, but yeah, she's amazing. She was there on Friday, she should have done more than one song.
I was like waiting for the more songs to come 100%.

Speaker 1 She walked by me at my station, and because she wasn't doing any interviews, I don't think. Do you get her?

Speaker 1 I didn't get her. So, so she, because I don't think she was doing any, she walked by, and all I could think to say was, crushed it Friday.

Speaker 1 And she goes,

Speaker 1 She's going to give me a little hot bag.

Speaker 1 Yeah, Yeah, got it. Good one.
Crushed it. Crushed as per usual.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I love Cher. Go on icon.
My only interaction with her on Friday, backstage at the concert, because I was back there getting ready to intro Gaga. Because you were.

Speaker 1 And then, but there's the Cher was up before me. And we.
Isn't that crazy? It's crazy.

Speaker 1 Radio City. Cher was on just before me.
Just before me, but she was just as far away from me as that camera is. And I'm like not, I can see her.
I can sense her presence. She's there.
I'm like

Speaker 1 truly collapsing into myself like god i

Speaker 1 love this person and she is like you know kind of just like in her space getting in her zone like people are surrounding her like her team is surrounding her and i'm trying not to look at her but then i just glance up and then she's looking back at me and she smiles and just waves like the sexiest most subtle little wave

Speaker 1 and it like hit me like a lightning bolt.

Speaker 1 And then in that moment, I was like, I know what I would say to Sher, but but I'm not going to say it. And I kind of am glad I didn't, but I kind of regret that I didn't either.

Speaker 1 This is what it would be:

Speaker 1 you're funnier than any comedian. You're more beautiful than any supermodel.
And you are more influential than any religious figure. I love you.
And she would have said, I know, bitch.

Speaker 1 Like, that's Cher.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God. Unbelievable.
It's so great that we got to see so many. All right, let's talk about Highline from the concert.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 And what if your Wi-Fi could proactively fix issues before they even happen? Well, that's exactly what Xfinity Wi-Fi does.

Speaker 1 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.

Speaker 1 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 1 So, like, this was another amazing moment for me yesterday. I stopped down with someone and then I turned to my left, and it's Bonnie Rait.

Speaker 1 And I was like, oh my God. And she looks up and she's like, I don't know.
Do you want to interview me? I was like, what? And then she was so like humble.

Speaker 1 She was like, they're probably not going to air it. I was like, Bonnie Raid, get over here right now.

Speaker 1 And then we just like had this like beautiful moment because one of my favorite moments of that whole night was I can't make you love me.

Speaker 1 I said, do you know, this is one of those songs where many people say it's their favorite song. You know whose favorite song is? Shares.
Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 So I was listening to her Desert Island Discs. Do you know that show? Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 In the UK, and she picked that as one of her favorite songs.

Speaker 1 I get it. She'd sound good on it.
Yeah, wouldn't yeah, Share would do an amazing rendition of that. Yes.
I feel the power. Yes.
And I feel the power.

Speaker 1 So, so beautiful and so sad. And like, that's why it's

Speaker 1 such a perfect song. Yeah.

Speaker 1 And Chris martin was there on the keys martin was on the keys who by the way is so funny so funny yeah like and so charming and amazing you've talked to him on the show no i know i'm no he's not been on the show but i met him at the snl after party oh that uh i where i first met him yeah he was there because he was the performer that uh that me

Speaker 1 and i was just like wow i i don't know why i just didn't think he would be so charming but he just so was and charismatic and brilliant so charismatic and brilliant but he was we were at the seafood restaurant and he's at his table eating out of a tupperware like veggies and tofu.

Speaker 1 Meal prepped. That's the Gwyneth influence.

Speaker 1 It's like,

Speaker 1 this is a health nut.

Speaker 1 It really is. Wow.
And he looks good. He looks good, yeah.
That was one of my favorite moments. I mean, like, I was, we were also right there in front of Post Malone singing with Nirvana.

Speaker 1 Oh, that was epic. That was crazy.
When he was smoking a cigarette, and then he put his cigarette in his guitar.

Speaker 1 I didn't miss that either. That was incredible.
Oh, my gosh. Sort of effort.
Something happened to me in that moment.

Speaker 1 And also, you know, he's really found, he's a tight jeans king, and he's bringing it back. He's so tall.
He's tall. Way taller than you think.
Like, he's like six foot three or something.

Speaker 1 What do you think it is about people that makes them seem like they're going to be short?

Speaker 1 I don't know. Like, is it their proportions of their

Speaker 1 head? Yeah, maybe that.

Speaker 1 I don't know. Well, he's very broad-shouldered.
He just doesn't look like he's really tall. But he is.
But he is.

Speaker 1 That's a fact right there. I would like, I would, I would like to go on a date with him.
So would I, yeah, so would I. You should get him on your show.
I am trying. You are.

Speaker 1 Who are the white whales? And then I want to hear your SNL 50 concert highlights. But who are the whales? Who are the people that you're like? Who are the whales?

Speaker 1 I've never heard of that phrase before. Like Moby Dick.
Like, who is like... Who are the white whales?

Speaker 1 Who are the people? Who are the white whales? There's a book called Moby Dick. I didn't read it.

Speaker 1 Well, that was your first mistake.

Speaker 1 It's Rilla Culture Number 8. If you haven't read Moby Dick, that was your first mistake.

Speaker 1 I hear it's an amazing book. I've never read it.
Oh, it's fabulous.

Speaker 1 It's really a thriller. It's a thrill.
Okay, it's a page turner.

Speaker 1 But it's really about so much more than whale. And that's all I'll say about that.
This symbol is my Moby. Who is my Moby Dick? Who's your Moby Dick? Yeah, who's your Moby Dick?

Speaker 1 Moby, the singer.

Speaker 1 Gaga. Yeah.

Speaker 1 She would do it. Would she? She would absolutely do it.

Speaker 1 That brick and damn.

Speaker 1 It's just that. How did you feel? I don't know.
Like, I didn't. Well, I saw her last night, but like, obviously, I didn't go up to her because what would I say? Nothing.

Speaker 1 And yeah, I think Gaga would be epic.

Speaker 1 I don't know. Maybe like someone like Larry David.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Like,

Speaker 1 oh my God, well, so many people that I met last night, like Kristen Wig is one of my comedy heroes. Oh, yeah.
And it was just a thrill to be able to speak to her and like to have her on the show.

Speaker 1 And like, I would love to have some more comics on, actually. Yeah.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 But I actually feel with Chicken Shop Day, I'm at a place with it where I feel like I've, I've kind of like achieved everything I want to with the show. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I feel really content. Like everything, everyone now is like just like a plus really.
Wow. I mean, that's really great.

Speaker 1 That's an amazing feeling that you are assured in that you're like, this is great. Like you did everything that we wanted to do.
I really feel like that.

Speaker 1 Like, I feel like there's so many amazing, like so many episodes.

Speaker 1 I'm like, so, so pleased with like how, just how they've come out and like just the energy of them and like the type of people that I've got to meet and our dynamic.

Speaker 1 Like I just feel like I've got what I need to from the show. But yeah, but so everything now is just like, it's just fun.
It's always been fun. How long have you felt like that?

Speaker 1 Was there an episode that like put you over the edge being like, okay, we're gonna do it?

Speaker 1 Well, for me, like the Louis Theroux episode was like a really amazing one because he was like, for me, one of my heroes growing up. Like I loved his documentaries so much.

Speaker 1 And like his tone and his style like really kind of informed some of my awkwardness too. And like my style.
And like when I, I was trying to get him on the show for years.

Speaker 1 And then he basically was like, They never got through to him, or something like that. He said, No, and then finally, again, his children then told him to come on the show,

Speaker 1 which is the way it goes a lot of the time. And then, um, that episode was just amazing, and then it kind of birthed this viral jiggle-jiggle like song on TikTok.

Speaker 1 And I just thought it just had everything in it that I wanted for the episode and like to get someone that I've always wanted to.

Speaker 1 And then from then, I was like, okay, well, I've done what I want to with this show.

Speaker 1 Yeah, we're but actually, no, I do actually need to keep going with the show because I need to fall in love.

Speaker 1 So, so when you're sitting down, are you actually feeling like there's a little part of you that's like, because you always, you do do the bit of this is the date. This is the day.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yeah, this is the date. But I don't see why, like, you couldn't meet someone on the show.
No, you absolutely.

Speaker 1 Yeah. But obviously, there are loads of cameras there and stuff, and people.

Speaker 1 But I mean, this was this was part of the Andrew Garfield of it all that I wanted to ask you about, which is, what did you feel about like all of the attention around it? Right.

Speaker 1 Oh, well, and I was in LA at the time, and it was like fun to like be also in, like, I don't know, like not in London and like be out, like out and about and stuff. But it was kind of amazing.

Speaker 1 Like, I just thought it was so cool that people were like, people were booking meeting rooms in their offices to like watch it, like to, so that they could all watch it together. It was wild.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 And like, that was so amazing to have created that kind of, that moment, like with a YouTube show, you know, like people were like, it's an event. Yeah.

Speaker 1 So that's what I loved so much about that episode in particular, about what what it kind of made people feel all the energy and like yeah that's why i just think it's just so fun to be able to like create those kinds of moments yeah so let's say let's work backwards from you fall in love with someone that you meet on the show yeah it's presumably someone who is a guest yeah could be a crew member no okay an assistant

Speaker 1 no

Speaker 1 One of the guys, one of Cher's nephews. No, no, no.
No, she was so creeped up by the right, right, right. Okay, gay nephews.
Okay, hold on, hold on, on, hold on. So you fall in love with a guest.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's like you check in after you shoot the thing, right? Cause it's like, is there a part of you that's like, when the cameras are rolling, it's like for the for entertainment, for the show.

Speaker 1 But then like afterwards, you're like, we need to, I need to check. I need to be one-on-one with this person.
Okay, this is why it's just never going to work out because no, no, I'm not saying that.

Speaker 1 I'm saying it can and it will. Let's, we just have to be really intentional about this.
Like, are you like going? Like, you don't, you're like, fuck these cameras.

Speaker 1 i'm gonna seduce this person no because i would never do that so actually it's not gonna i well i was meaning to ask you i was like amelia how do you you do have this natural and cynthia rivo said this like you have this natural capacity and this talent i call it a talent because i i lack this of flirting you flirt very well yes i do actually so then what's that about so that it can happen no it yeah it can but i go for the wrong people i go for the wrong people in life you go for the wrong people yeah do you find that like what this style of flirting that you do on the show, because you are a little bit of like, you do nagging, like, is that how you flirt in real life?

Speaker 1 Yeah, totally. Okay.
So you're not like emboldened by the cameras to like be a little bit like just character.

Speaker 1 That's just

Speaker 1 how you are. Yeah, because I, I don't know why.
I always just think that like when I when I'm talking to guys, I'm always like, I'm, I'm funnier than you. No, it's power.
It's a power.

Speaker 1 It's power. Because what I'm going to tell you.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I don't know.

Speaker 1 I just feel like that's just been my natural way, but I also think maybe it's something about being British British and like, maybe like, like, I don't know, like from school or like the guys I used to hang out with when I was growing up who would be like so mean to you that like you'd then just have to like create this armor of like sarcasm.

Speaker 1 Like then it just kind of stayed with me. Right.
Well, let's say there's been a recent example of you flirting with someone and successfully having it, you know, be a fun thing.

Speaker 1 Let's walk through that. Let's break a recent example down.

Speaker 1 Any recent example. Of me flirting with someone.
And then we can all do the same because I actually do want to self-examine a bit on flirts.

Speaker 1 Flirts because I'm like, I identify as not a good flirter, but it's like we've like, but I think the three of us have successfully courted someone, yeah.

Speaker 1 I feel like you can tell when there's a chemistry, I feel like kind of immediately with someone, yeah, and so it is like a roll of the dice, yeah. Like, I think just like you meet someone, you kind of

Speaker 1 I don't know, you just can sense it really from

Speaker 1 it's like an energy. I think you just kind of know, yeah.
So, once you sense it, you're like, okay, I'm in, Let's yeah.

Speaker 1 Okay, great.

Speaker 1 You're a pursuer at that point. Well, I don't know.
I feel like when you meet people out, it's kind of hard to meet people out.

Speaker 1 But when you do, I think you just kind of like gravitate toward each other and then you just start talking. And then you, in your head, while you're talking, you can like sense, you're like, okay.

Speaker 1 Something's like clicks. I feel like you feel it.
And you're like, are we, is this, is this? Are we? Are we like flirting? Yeah. And then they're like, yeah, I married.
So that's what happened.

Speaker 1 See, this is the thing that's literally every time. I know.
But But the thing is, like, with the gays, it's like, this has happened to me a couple times in the past few weeks.

Speaker 1 I'll get asked on a full-on date and then I'll find out like either hours before or on the date that they fully have a boyfriend. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's what you're saying.

Speaker 1 Are you dealing with open guys sometimes? No. No.
No. So I'm saying it's like a gay guy thing.
Where they're already in a relationship and they're open.

Speaker 1 You have to tell someone if you're in a relationship and you're asking a hangout. People like to flirt.
People are bored and they like to flirt in their relationships. I know so many people.

Speaker 1 But I'm also like, is that about? I don't know if that is that about, you can obviously still flirt when you're in a relationship. Sure.
But like, there's another thing, like, needing someone on.

Speaker 1 Right. I mean, flirting and then asking them full-on.
Oh, yeah. Going on a date.
Yeah. Like, I had someone one time tell me in the middle of things after it was going really well.

Speaker 1 I don't know how this is going to land, but I have a boyfriend. And I was like, you don't know how this is going to land.

Speaker 1 I was like, because if this was a sex thing, you had to say that beforehand, because there's things I had to do.

Speaker 1 You know what I mean? Like, I had to make sure everything was divorced. Of course.

Speaker 1 Like, there's things that need to go on. There's process.
You needed to weed whack. A lack of respect for process.

Speaker 1 You lost me. You lost me.
You have a lack of respect. That's a rule of coach number 19.
There's a lack of respect for process. You lost me.

Speaker 1 I was talking to a guy, same deal, but I knew going into it that he was married and whatever. Like we were maybe planning the logistics of it.
And then I just made an offhand comment.

Speaker 1 where I was like, and also, I don't know, like I might just be emotionally like in a different different place than you because there are just different stakes to this. He was like, what do you mean?

Speaker 1 What do you mean? What do you mean? And he was being obtuse. And I was like, you know, like you are in a relationship and I am like,

Speaker 1 I'm squeaking. I'm literally putting this in the calendar because this is like the one window this week where I can have relations with someone.

Speaker 1 And he was like, I need you to explain this a little bit more. I'm like, this, what are you talking about? Like that, some, some, some of these guys play dumb with it.

Speaker 1 But this is what I want to drill into is because you're mentioning mentioning this this moment of like are we is this are we yeah like that's the thing that is the blockage usually where it's like you're it's not cool to ask are we is this are we out loud i think it is i've sometimes i have said i was like yeah should we kiss yeah should we kiss it out and usually

Speaker 1 um

Speaker 1 no i feel like i don't know i'm going wrong well this is my thing though is don't do that don't do that it doesn't work is it are we saying here as a trio like if you have to ask then it's a bad sign sometimes i do though like sometimes you just kind of have to like say it because really you kind of have to be the confident one of course it and that's the thing is it's like i i think for me it reflects entirely on how i'm feeling about myself in the moment like if i'm feeling good about myself in a good mood i genuinely think i'll go up to anyone and like flirt with them but flirting makes you feel alive i'm sorry if you have like a like if you're flirting it just makes you you're just having a better time than if you weren't yeah i don't know like it's so fun but if you're not feeling good about yourself, though, I think any situation I'm in where like I can feel like that's going somewhere, I go right to like fear.

Speaker 1 I'm like, no, no, no. I, I, I can't.
I, like, I, I shrink. And it's just so, I wish I felt powerful all the time.
I know. You can't.
It's like, I don't know. You just can't.
London Summers.

Speaker 1 Should we do Mighty Hoopla with you? Would you come to Mighty Hoopla with us? Are you going? We went a couple years ago.

Speaker 1 I've never been.

Speaker 1 It would be. I mean, you would be mobbed.
It would be, oh, it looks so fun. It was a blast.
Yeah. Oh, God.
That's so fun. Yeah.
We missed Kelly Rowland.

Speaker 1 They always have such fun performers. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
We saw. Kelly Rowland.
Kelly Rowland. We saw Jake Shears.
Jake Shears.

Speaker 1 We saw.

Speaker 1 Does Kelly Roland do when love takes? Oh, you know she does. Oh, my gosh.
Yes. She's got so many more gay anthems than you're ready for.

Speaker 1 Yeah, she's really great. But she was on the Friday, and that was when we saw Beyonce.
So we were there. Beyonce was at My Sheepler.
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 Beyonce was in London doing Tottenham the same week, the same weekend as Mighty Hoopla. Renaissance is the same weekend as Mighty Hoopla.
And Kelly was doing Mighty Hoopla.

Speaker 1 So there was just all these rumors being like, Kelly's going to show up to Renaissance or Beyonce's going to show up to Mighty Hoopla, which was less likely. Yeah, that would be iconic.

Speaker 1 Would be ignooplooploopyla. But that was me as Beyonce greeting.
Mighty hoopla. What's that park

Speaker 1 in South London that it's at?

Speaker 1 Brockwell Park. Brockwell.
Is it? I don't know.

Speaker 1 It's fun down there. Yeah, South London.
I never go. I never go, but it's like,

Speaker 1 it's where all the cool people are. No, it is.
That's why I'm never there.

Speaker 1 Yeah, no. Like, London in summer is the best.
I think it's like the best time to come to London is in summer. Well, now, I guess, Beyonce, it would be nice to go see Beyonce.

Speaker 1 Yeah. That honestly was medicine for the soul.
What funny was it? Seeing Beyonce, like, I was feeling in like a really rubbish headspace.

Speaker 1 And I was like, I feel I was feeling so self-conscious about the way I looked and all this stuff. And then I went to see Renaissance and I was just like, wow, it really like was a drug.

Speaker 1 It was like a pill, a medicine for me. Yeah.
you were at the party. It was, yeah, it was amazing.
Yeah, exactly. Let's ask Amelia the question.

Speaker 1 On eBay, every find has a story. Like, if you're looking for a vintage band tee, not just a tea, the band tea.
From the last show, your favorite band ever played. He wore it everywhere.

Speaker 1 Then your boyfriend started wearing it, which was cute until he dumped you and took it with him, which was not so cute. But he was.
I miss him.

Speaker 1 Anyway, now you're on eBay. And there it is.
Same tea from the same tour still living in your memory rent-free forever. Yeah.
Screw you, Dave.

Speaker 1 The things you love have a way of finding their way back to you. Except Dave.
But eBay isn't just forget whatever your ex slash XBFF stole back. We miss you.

Speaker 1 It's also for that rare championship foul ball that you caught, then heroically gave to the kid next to you. You're welcome, Scoot.

Speaker 1 And where else are you going to find your first car, a RAV4 from 2003? The one you wish you never sold, but now finally got the chance to take back home. I'm buying a car on eBay for good this time.

Speaker 1 Shop eBay for millions of finds, each with a story. eBay.

Ah!

Speaker 1 Not this season, not with with Xfinity Wi-Fi. With Xfinity, you can boost the Wi-Fi to your device only.

Speaker 1 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. Ever heard of the Trans-America Trail?

Speaker 1 It's America's longest off-road trail, a 5,900-plus-mile coast-to-coast monster. And now, for the first time, Ford and Google Maps are bringing the full Trans-America Trail to Street View.

Speaker 1 It's one of America's most epic off-road adventures, and now every adventurer can plan, preview, and explore it themselves. How did they do it?

Speaker 1 By equipping the 2025 Ford Bronco Badlands with Google's new Street View camera, while the Expedition Tremor and Ranger Lariat carried the team and tools that made it all possible.

Speaker 1 You know, Matt and I weren't super familiar with the off-roading game until this summer when we took a dunes tour and went off-road. And now I totally get it.

Speaker 1 And I envy the adventure that people off-road take when they go to the Trans-America Trail. I may never drive on a road again.

Speaker 1 So whether you're planning to trek across the country or head out on a weekend adventure, scout out the trail on Street View. Explore, challenge yourself, and let your Ford handle the rest.

Speaker 1 The trail's waiting. You in.
Find the Trans-America Trail on Google Maps and hit the off-road. Ready, set forward.

Speaker 1 You ever just stop in the middle of a crazy day and realize, wow, I needed a break. It literally happened to me yesterday.
I cracked open a Diet Coke, sat back for five minutes, total reset. Right?

Speaker 1 There's something about the crispy, refreshing taste of an ice-cold Diet Coke. It just hits.
It's my little me moment, like make time for a Diet Coke break, you know? Exactly.

Speaker 1 Diet Coke is the perfect companion for all break moments. Diet Coke, this is my taste.

Speaker 1 Amelia Maldeberg, what is the culture that Major Stay Culture is for me? Mary Kay and Ashley Olson. Wow.
Have we ever had anyone do that? I was wondering if you have.

Speaker 1 I don't think so, but this is huge.

Speaker 1 What's their greatest work, in your opinion? Oh, wow. Okay.
Well, what movie? Oh, God. I mean, I'm going to have to say a movie.
New York Minute. No, no, no.
I'm just kidding.

Speaker 1 Underrated, though.

Speaker 1 New York Minute, absolutely. Holiday in the Sun.
Yes. With Megan Fox.
Sorry.

Speaker 1 With Megan Fox. Yeah.
I mean,

Speaker 1 Winning London. I mean, I love, obviously, I'm a London girl.
Of course. But maybe Winning London wasn't my fave.
What Our Lips Are Sealed? The one where they're in Australia. What? The challenge.

Speaker 1 Do you remember that one? I don't know the challenge. The challenge was when they did the challenge.

Speaker 1 Sorry. It was like they, you know, the

Speaker 1 show the challenge.

Speaker 1 Show the challenge. And the only way I've ever watched the challenge is on the American Ashie, The Challenge.
The Olsen Twins did the challenge. They don't know.

Speaker 1 Well, they did like a movie where they were on the challenge. I am.
But the MTV show, is there a British show called The Challenge? No, it's like,

Speaker 1 I assume this is the show. It's like you're in a pair and you have to do loads of challenges.
Oh, like an amazing race kind of thing? Yeah, maybe.

Speaker 1 What was the

Speaker 1 Sleepover series again? The Sleepover series. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 1 You're invited. You're invited.
You're invited. You're invited.
Oh, you're invited. That was that TV series.
I don't know what it was.

Speaker 1 Oh, they also had an animation. Yeah, they had everything.

Speaker 1 You said Passport to Paris.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Oh, that's not the paragraph.
Passport to Paris was huge for them, I think. Yeah.
Just like so epic. Like, I'm sorry, but just, I just wanted to live their life so badly.

Speaker 1 I feel like so much of why I feel like I'm such an overachiever is because I grew up on Mary Kay and Ashley. Yeah, yeah.
And they were like the biggest overachievers in the world.

Speaker 1 Like, there was nothing that they couldn't do. People forget there was two of them.
So they split their empire. They both had, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 It's true, but still, like, still, they did the work. I mean, absolutely.
No one contributes to them.

Speaker 1 This is the thing that's crazy. They are the coolest girls still.

Speaker 1 They are always pushing culture forward still with the row. And they own the row pieces.

Speaker 1 No, but they're about a million dollars each. Are they? But aren't they expensive? But they last and they're good quality.
And Bo has the row. You do.

Speaker 1 I mean, everyone loves the row.

Speaker 1 Really cool people wear the row. Yeah.
Absolutely. Yeah.
And they're just, oh, they're just like little tiny little chain smokers. They're just so cool.

Speaker 1 one of them i forget which one it was it might have been mary kate or ashley um at the wedding at the wedding they had a wedding their wedding had bowls of cigarettes on every table yeah so famously famously yeah i'm always trying to think though who am i more like mary kate am i ashley like i just remember you're both yeah what is the distinction though can you break down

Speaker 1 i don't know because they would always change characters in their movies like do you know i mean like sometimes mary kate would be like the the uptight one and then sometimes it would be ashley and you could like never really know they would just always yeah unknow a complete unknown yeah yeah truly.

Speaker 1 Two complete unknowns. But yeah, no, I just, I just, yeah, two of them.
Oh, and then they've got the other sister, Elizabeth. Elizabeth, who, by the way, is my favorite actress.
Oh, wow. All of them.

Speaker 1 See, they're just incredible.

Speaker 1 Have you ever watched?

Speaker 1 I mean, obviously, WandaVision, but have you ever seen Ingrid Goes West? No, no.

Speaker 1 You would love to see. Oh, wait.
Is it about Abby Plaza?

Speaker 1 Yes, I have seen it.

Speaker 1 It's the stalker, like Stalker

Speaker 1 situation with the social media. Yeah.

Speaker 1 It's such a bold,

Speaker 1 great,

Speaker 1 like, interesting movie about a dynamic like that that like really pushes it and goes there in a and then ends in such a weird

Speaker 1 market funny way quite a dark funny way like it's truly i just missed dark comedies like that you know what i just watched again and we saw matthew broderick last night and i told him this

Speaker 1 election yeah so good never seen him oh you would love amelia it's it's your kind of movie really i should watch him rhetoric witherspoon is in a way like i love the olson girl of her time yes of her micro generation

Speaker 1 favor Rhys Witherspoon? I love Rhys Witherspoon. Oh, you think I look like her? I do.
Yeah. Okay.
I love that. She's beautiful.
Elle Woods. Elle Woods.

Speaker 1 You have an El Woods quality about you. Really? That's so nice.
And I mean, that is the highest compliment. Of course, it is.
She's an accomplished lawyer and

Speaker 1 dog person. Dog person.
You know, they're doing. So you.
They're doing another one. Check out the prequel.
Yes, they are. But check out Election because it's one of Rhys's best performances.

Speaker 1 And whenever anyone is like forgetting that Reese can do dark, oh, I'm like, can you just go watch literally anything from the first half of her career?

Speaker 1 Like, Pleasantville, she's like

Speaker 1 so deliciously bitchy in it, and like she plays this turn so well of like waking up to that. And like, but Tracy Flick, her character in election, so what's the premise of the film?

Speaker 1 So, the premise is basically it's a high school, and Matthew Broderick is a social studies teacher.

Speaker 1 And there's a girl in class, Tracy Flick, played by Rhys Witherspoon, who's like an overachiever, very Mary Kate or Ashley, depending on the movie vibes.

Speaker 1 And so she drives him nuts. And basically she has an, she has an affair.
I mean, well, I mean, like, it's with a teacher that's his friend. And he gets obviously kicked out of the school.

Speaker 1 And so Matthew Broderick's character grows to like really resent this girl who's running for class president unopposed. So he encourages a popular jock student to run against her.

Speaker 1 She goes crazy, like, because she's like not supposed to lose.

Speaker 1 And it's like a sort of political satire taking place in this high school and they did a sequel to it called tracy flick can't win tom parota wrote a second book like years and years later oh it's and they're doing it alexander payne is supposed to do it they're getting the script together

Speaker 1 she's supposed to do it she's producing it too oh reese is producing it yes um that's the buzz criterion collection election yeah that's like it's it's like it's one of those movies where you're just like it's undeniable i think you would love it okay i'm definitely gonna watch it yep tonight tonight it actually would be a great movie for tonight great movie where it's like, you know what?

Speaker 1 I went out last night. Yeah, but I still want to watch something good.
I want to watch something I'm awake for. I have to think about, but it's not going to like scare me or like, you know, perfect.

Speaker 1 Drive me nuts. I can look at my phone every 20 minutes or so.

Speaker 1 If I, if I wanted,

Speaker 1 adapted screenplay, Oscar nominee. That's right.

Speaker 1 I love awards. Do you really love awards?

Speaker 1 I was like a gold derby kid. Okay, we're going to the Oscars for the first time.
Yes. Oh, my God.
What?

Speaker 1 What are your tips? Don't wear a train dress. Okay.
You know, like a long dress with a train.

Speaker 1 Sorry.

Speaker 1 I don't see what he's wearing.

Speaker 1 But it's gorgeous. Yeah, yeah.
It has no train. Because that was a nightmare for me when I went.
And like, yeah, that was a nightmare.

Speaker 1 I would say

Speaker 1 eat something

Speaker 1 before, but then also afterwards at the governor's ball, there's like the most amount of food in the world. In the world.
Like ever.

Speaker 1 And there's like every single kind of food you could ever have, but like in a miniature version. And then they also have gold,

Speaker 1 like Oscars made out of chocolate I love

Speaker 1 your family like take

Speaker 1 back to London my dad's so sweet yeah like my whole suitcase was filled with your dad is adorable by the way I'm sorry is that so patronizing he's so wonderful he seems like such a charming man yeah he is so sweet both my parents are so cute they're just lovely and you're very close with your sister as well yeah really close to my sister yeah we worked together and we're just like yeah we actually yeah we used to live together then we had to separate because it was too much well also twins kind of also

Speaker 1 very Olsen twins vibe actually we're very similar in age we're only one year apart so it's kind of of like

Speaker 1 giving Mary Kay and Ashley. Very that.
Who's who?

Speaker 1 Depends on the movie.

Speaker 1 I'm sorry. I don't really know if we're wipping over.

Speaker 1 So, yeah, so we'll have to see.

Speaker 1 We'll have to really see. To be continued.
To be continued. Now, were you a Full House first person? Do they have Full House in the UK? They probably did on some random channel, but I didn't watch it.

Speaker 1 Oh, so you weren't introduced to them when we were? Well, actually, well, I guess you didn't. I think I was introduced to them.
I was on the table. No, but we were.
Full house was a thing in Canada.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 I found out about them through Billboard Dad, I think, was the first one in billboard billboard dad yeah what was the one where they were living in like it was like they were in like Miami Beach or something and they lived in like what looked like essentially a hotel

Speaker 1 I've seen that one their no their dad wasn't Steve Gutenberg I'm getting that mixed up with

Speaker 1 it takes two is yeah have you seen it takes two yes i've seen it till with kirsty alley yeah we're we're naming off so many movies

Speaker 1 are we are we in retrospect a little bit like fuck i mean what what what was what was their life they were they were just working these kids to the fucking bone yeah so true in a way and but now but they seem to they i feel like they love to work because they why you wouldn't run a fashion brand if you didn't love to work because that's like one of the hardest jobs of course in the world but also what were you gonna say sorry no but but also like they are so like we don't want to be seen yeah at all so cool like that's that's the reactionary thing to like being in show businesses like at that young and i also feel like they're in a way like the precursor to like the modern day influencer that we have now absolutely because like mary kay and ashley's movies for me was like how i feel like people now when they're watching alex earl or like all these other influences because you wanted like you want to watch someone's really fun life where they're like going out to parties they're kissing boys they're like putting on makeup and stuff but like i watched that through mary kay and ashley but like that was obviously fictionalized yeah like that's what i loved about it was because i felt like i was like have getting a like a door open into like their world which i thought was real and now we do have that now but it is well, it's kind of real to a point, but you have that with influencers, I guess.

Speaker 1 Yeah, but you're no, but you're touching on something so huge, which is that like when we were growing up or when we were like impressionable youth, like we knew it to be a fantasy, and now it's like, it's hard to tell for a lot of people.

Speaker 1 It's true. And people probably do are watching people on TikTok and thinking, oh my God, this is like their actual life.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Not realizing that like so much of it is still staged and like, not stage in that sense, but like, you know, like heightened or like the things that you decide to include and the things you choose not to.

Speaker 1 Right. Yeah.
And yeah, it's a bit more

Speaker 1 difficult for young people probably to get their head around it. But saying that, I honestly did think that Mary Kate and Ashley lived that life.

Speaker 1 I actually thought that was like, oh, they obviously are like jetting off to the harmers.

Speaker 1 They're going to like kiss those are boys in Paris. Like they are doing that.
They really were all over the world. So they were

Speaker 1 Mr. and Mrs.
Worldwide. Yeah.
Pipple watching. Miss and Miss Worldwide.
Little Miss, Miss Miss Wilson. Ash's Roll of Culture number 14.
Mary Kay and Ashley were

Speaker 1 little miss miss Worldwide. Little Miss Miss Worldwide.
Little Miss Miss Worldwide. You know, they never did.

Speaker 1 They never did really little miss, miss, worldwide.

Speaker 1 It's not a matter of time.

Speaker 1 What was it? I think in order to Amelia has a point, but and I would like to see it. But wait, they never grew up on camera, though.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 Like they did New York Minute, and then it was kind of like, you know what? You guys don't get to see us encounter drugs and alcohol. You guys actually don't.

Speaker 1 You don't get to see us get a horny feeling. No.
And I think it's because A, probably they were fed up at that point.

Speaker 1 And B, people are so uncomfortable whenever that happens with anyone they're watching as a kid.

Speaker 1 Like, think about, like, now it's so crazy because Miley Cyrus is like a beloved American treasure for Quadrant moms, dads, brother, sister. Everyone loves her.
The gays, everyone.

Speaker 1 But she was derided. Of course.
For like, you know. Just growing up, being sexual.
Yeah, it's the, it's the Britney thing. It's the, yeah.
It's all of them.

Speaker 1 And Mary Kate and Ashley didn't even participate in that they were just like we're we're actually no you you got everything you're getting from us yeah because you're going to be judged as a young woman in limelight if you're showing all of these different sides to your personality or just figuring stuff out yeah on camera or whatever and yeah they just basically were like goodbye close the door they just they just skipped straight to um dating like an older French guy.

Speaker 1 Yes, they did.

Speaker 1 Was he like in politics or something? Or something like which one's a billionaire? Some like they have a very, yeah, they've got interesting

Speaker 1 men in their lives. This has been on my to-do list, but like a dating pros and cons list.
Have we, have we done this exercise?

Speaker 1 Dating pros and cons. What do you mean, like for like things that you're like, he needs to be at least these things? French billionaire.
French billionaire. Right.
And so you're like,

Speaker 1 well,

Speaker 1 does he have to be a billionaire?

Speaker 1 No, does he, no, of course. I'm just saying.
Can you be a multi-millionaire?

Speaker 1 I just want someone to buy me dinner. Really? And that's

Speaker 1 why I realized my bar is really low. I need to raise it.
Yeah. And this live in this moment, I was like, that's it.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 No, it's actually sad.

Speaker 1 Less funny than me so that I can feel better. But at least

Speaker 1 you're not going to be able to do that.

Speaker 1 There's people. Yeah.
There's some people. There's some people.

Speaker 1 Is there anything that like everyone else would consider a positive that you consider a negative when dating someone? Totally.

Speaker 1 Everyone considers a like, honestly, you know what drives me kind of nuts?

Speaker 1 Like not politeness doesn't drive me crazy because I actually do like to know that the person really likes me, but I don't like to feel like things are careful or like too kind.

Speaker 1 For me, there needs to be like some edge. Like I need to feel and not like you had a really nice time.
Don't tell me you had a really nice time. Make out with me on the street.
Oh, that's how I feel.

Speaker 1 Not in the dark. Up against the wall.
I've done that. Oh, God.
See, that's what's so great about.

Speaker 1 That's why when you come to New York and you start dating here, and I bet it does give that in East London, to be honest, but very dava on the east side, where you at?

Speaker 1 It's exactly that. Yeah.
Wow. I need to.
I've been transported back to the streets of London. Isn't it cool that I see that?

Speaker 1 Is it still that you're in?

Speaker 1 Is it true that, like, in New York, everyone's dating all the time? Like, multiple people? Because that's more of a double. That's what people say about New York that, like,

Speaker 1 when you're dating someone, it's normal, it's usual that they'll be like dating numerous other people like right like they say don't do that but I think it happens all the time of course I do it the New York thing I'm curious if this is the same in London the New York thing is everyone thinks that they can do better than the person they're with yep on some level I feel like that's a thing now just in like society

Speaker 1 because you've got too many options it's literally like it's like browsing through Netflix it's like well let me keep looking because there's some I'm like at about a six or a seven in terms of watching this show about you know like yeah this documentary that's like I'm kind of interested but I'm sure there's something that's going to take me over the edge and you just keep it's online shopping it's like it's immediacy culture it's the instant gratification that we're so used to that makes us swipe swipe swipe away from like these actual things do you guys know the Muslim matchmaker yes she says focus on one partner she says focus on one person the illusion of choice is just that an illusion it's like

Speaker 1 you're not giving someone a chance if you are thinking about two three other people, even like later on in the week, whatever, you also will be less attentive to them. Of course.

Speaker 1 You're going to find yourself going on a date being like, now, is this the one with the two older sisters? You know what I mean? And it's like,

Speaker 1 that's crazy. I know.
No, I've caught myself in that for sure. And to quote Natalie Portman, I've been you.

Speaker 1 It's closer.

Speaker 1 Oh, I love that film. Great movie.
It's one of the great films. So good.
It was a play. Was it a play first? It was a play first.
I love a play. Like,

Speaker 1 I love, like, sorry. I love, I'm

Speaker 1 smarting at this.

Speaker 1 I love movies that feel like plays. I love them, but that's people.
They're not that for some reason.

Speaker 1 Yeah. I like that.

Speaker 1 A common criticism was it felt stagy or it felt like a, like, this. I'm like, what's that about a long scene? Hello.
Watch the movie Doubt, the scene with Meryl Streep and Viola Davis.

Speaker 1 Yeah, yell at me that it's stagy. I love that.
What? You hate people acting at each other?

Speaker 1 Get out. Get out.
Get out of here. Get out of here, I say.
say.

Speaker 1 Get an American accent.

Speaker 1 Thanks. Yeah.
You've been told that. No, I haven't.
Sorry, that's so powerful. That was really good.
But my agent keeps trying to get me to do auditions in an American accent, and I'm like, I can't.

Speaker 1 Are you? Do you have acting ambitions? I would like to, yeah. Okay, we're going to write something for you.
Yeah. Oh, please.
We'll take care of you. We'll take care of you.

Speaker 1 You don't have to act ever again. Wait.

Speaker 1 I see something for Amelia. Same.
For sure. No, look, we're, we're, yeah.
Sorry, we're being so annoying. We're being so fucking annoying.

Speaker 1 And we're being such, and we're being such bitches. You bitches are good bitches, either.

Speaker 1 Wait, I did an impression of you last night on the carpet, right? What did I say again? I said, oh, I love Andrew Garfield. No, I said, I said, I said, Andrew Garfield loves me.
He's obsessed with me.

Speaker 1 Andrew Garfield's obsessed with me. Have you spoken to him since all that? Or did it start a friendship? Yeah, I would say we're friends.
That's good.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I would say we're friends.

Speaker 1 No, he's so nice. Yeah.
He seems lovely. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Sweetheart. Okay, but I sort of want to finish this conversation about

Speaker 1 the potential of falling in love on the show for you.

Speaker 1 Yeah, okay. Like, I feel like I might meet someone on the show, but then once I end the show, then maybe I bump into them at a party.
And then that's how I feel. That's

Speaker 1 how I realistically feel like that sounds really right. Rather than like the day after we film, I'm like, so

Speaker 1 we're going up now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Does a guest ever hit you up? You don't have to say who, but did a guest ever hit you up after, like, in an actual way? No. No?

Speaker 1 Fucked up. No.
Do you? No. It's not funny.
It's actually fucked up. But you know what? You know what sucks about your show? You don't have any gay guys on.

Speaker 1 I'm trying.

Speaker 1 I'm trying. Well, you were on our show.
I'm trying.

Speaker 1 What do you mean you're trying? Who are you trying? You're trying to get Johnny Bailey? Yeah. Yeah.
Oh, who is not? Is he not? He was.

Speaker 1 Who's not?

Speaker 1 He was supposed to do our show. Lizzie.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 And then

Speaker 1 there was a double booking. There was a double booking.
It was a double booking. No, and it's my fault.
It was your fault. It's fine.

Speaker 1 No one had to do Kelly Clarkson at the time we were originally scheduled. And that is literally the only thing I would allow.

Speaker 1 I feel like I have had

Speaker 1 a gay person on. I don't, well, you've had a gay person on.
You haven't had a gay guy because I feel like you think that you can't flirt with the person. But let me tell you something.

Speaker 1 Just me and you in a room with chicken.

Speaker 1 Well, this is a blind spot for me. And actually, I need to get more gay men on the show.
Thanks. I just wanted to open that door.
Your work isn't over.

Speaker 1 No, thank you for thank you for highlighting that. Yeah.
Thank you.

Speaker 1 I'm going to do more i sometimes it's easier to flirt with girls i love flirting with girls well you are uh you're you know who do you

Speaker 1 straighter than me isn't that does that surprise you yeah i'm yeah yeah we talked about this yeah you and city sweeney yeah

Speaker 1 vibes you gina garshon you and sydney sweeney you and wait you guys are leading people on actually you've probably had well you've probably had people have probably gone to their friends like i had the most amazing conversation with this guy who was talking to me all night this guy was talking to me all night and then turns out he's gay

Speaker 1 you know i i actually someone gave me their phone number when i worked at ulysses years ago a girl was like gave me her phone number on a napkin like it was a rom-com and i was like i don't the girl gave you her phone number i didn't even try to act like anything other than myself and i was like am i

Speaker 1 straight passing perhaps the answer is no per chance oh really

Speaker 1 so she couldn't even answer it wait sorry what was the question am i straight passing oh sorry. I didn't hear that.
Sorry.

Speaker 1 No. We're so tired.

Speaker 1 So, I've actually got turned a corner now where I'm like, I actually thought I was going to throw up before I came into this room. Do you vomit when you're hungover? Yeah.
You do? Yeah.

Speaker 1 Did you vomit last night? No. Good.
So that means like it's it's backed up. It's it's it's coming up.
It's coming up. It's coming up.
It's coming up. It's there.
Do you hear that song?

Speaker 1 What is that? Don't know. Just singing ambition.
Yeah, yeah, clearly.

Speaker 1 What was the question?

Speaker 1 If you ask a question like this, it was so much fun. It's so much more fun to ask.
Wait, say what?

Speaker 1 It's so much fun singing ambition. Give singing ambition.
That wasn't a British accent. But it's not an accent, it's the inflection of it.
It's inflection.

Speaker 1 In American, you ask a question like this, and

Speaker 1 in the UK, you ask a question like this.

Speaker 1 Yes, do you?

Speaker 1 Do you know? You are not straight past.

Speaker 1 That's a question. That's the same.

Speaker 1 That's the same inflection.

Speaker 1 You don't think come straight back.

Speaker 1 It isn't more like

Speaker 1 soapy. Hello.
Hello.

Speaker 1 Okay,

Speaker 1 we got to get you out of here. We all got to get out.
No, I don't fucking understand. What time is it? It's 4.39.

Speaker 1 My girl was 10 late. Oh, well, stop it.
No, she wasn't.

Speaker 1 Dragging ass down the street.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I was.

Speaker 1 Sorry that I was getting stopped to ask for photos. Are you actually? Well, you are incredibly recognizable.
And I'm also just, yeah, well, am I? Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 Also, I think people think I'm approachable. I am approachable, but like, I think because of the show, it's like people are more likely to come up if you're doing something in comedy.

Speaker 1 I feel like you probably get the same thing.

Speaker 1 It's lovely time. It's so nice.

Speaker 1 I always just think like there's so many, it's a privilege to get people to come up and say that they like your work when so many people are in jobs where they're never thanked for what they do.

Speaker 1 Their boss never tells them they're doing a good job. And like we literally get people being like, good job.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Thank you for doing it. We like your work.
Yeah. It's so nice.
It is lovely. Very, very nice.
Yeah. What that's beautiful's perspective.
Yeah, it is. Do you have your Oscars dress? Not yet.

Speaker 1 You got to get on that. Yeah.
Do you have a color? No.

Speaker 1 What's okay? Which I don't know what I'm wearing yet. I don't know what I'm doing.

Speaker 1 Will you be dressed?

Speaker 1 I hope so. Yeah, nice.
I better be. Can I say one of the number one things I look forward to when you're going to be somewhere is what you're going to be wearing.
No, it's so nice.

Speaker 1 Thank you. You have such amazing fashion sense.
You went to school for fashion journalism? Yes. I studied fashion journalism at St.
Martin's.

Speaker 1 And yeah, I always wanted to work at vogue that was like my ambition i see it yeah i wanted to be editor of vogue um still time and

Speaker 1 still time no and then and then yeah when i was studying fashion journalism i kind of realized i was more interested in like pop culture as a whole yeah and kind of and then i was doing chicken shop date at the same time like um while i was at university and then just like chicken shop date i just focused on that right but yeah i've always loved fashion And like, I just find fashion history and like, yeah, fashion journalism is like a gateway into like culture as a whole anyway.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Everything is so connected. Everything is so connected.
Everything is connected. Well, it's a specific window.

Speaker 1 It's like, it's the entry point into the broader scope of yeah, whether it's, yeah, whether it's from, even from politics to business to music, to like music, to like identity, like, to everything.

Speaker 1 You're brow-coated right now. Am I?

Speaker 1 Well, always. I've got a meshed back.

Speaker 1 I'm not. I can be bitchy,

Speaker 1 But I don't know if I'm

Speaker 1 a bitch. Right.

Speaker 1 There is a distinction. That is the big distinction.
We're maiming. We're holding our own.
That was a good maimment.

Speaker 1 I'm not really on TikTok. And so, like, I didn't know it was a viral sound until well after it happened.
Yeah, it was for the best. Yeah.

It's time for end of things, though, honey.

Speaker 1 God.

Speaker 1 On eBay, every find has a story. Like if you're looking for a vintage band tee.
Not just a tea, the band tee. From the last show, your favorite band ever played.
You wore it everywhere.

Speaker 1 Then your boyfriend started wearing it. Which was cute.
Until he dumped you and took it with him. Which was not so cute.
But he was. I miss him.
Anyway, now you're on eBay. And there it is.

Speaker 1 Same tea from the same tour still living in your memory rent-free forever. Yeah.
Screw you, Dave. The things you love have a way of finding their way back to you.
Except Dave.

Speaker 1 But eBay isn't just forgetting whatever your ex/slash XBFF stole back. We miss you.
It's also for that rare championship foul ball that you caught, then heroically gave to the kid next to you.

Speaker 1 You're welcome, Scoot. And where else are you going to find your first car? A RAV4 from 2003? The one you wish you never sold, but now finally got the chance to take back home.

Speaker 1 I'm buying a car on eBay for good this time. Shop eBay for millions of finds, each with a story.
eBay. Things people love.

Speaker 1 Let's take a tagline. What if your Wi-Fi wasn't just Wi-Fi, but the magic holding your whole holiday together? Well, with Xfinity Wi-Fi, it kind of is.
Picture this.

Speaker 1 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 1 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 1 It's Wi-Fi that keeps your whole home connected so you can actually enjoy the holiday magic. Chaos free.
The best present of all. Let me paint a picture for you.

Speaker 1 A holiday movie marathon is streaming in the living room. Your kid is video chatting their friends from their tablet and your partner is shopping for too many gifts and cinnamon candles.
Ah!

Speaker 1 Not this season, not with Xfinity Wi-Fi. With Xfinity, you can boost the Wi-Fi to your device only.

Speaker 1 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. Not this season, not with Xfinity Wi-Fi.

Speaker 1 And what if you had a way to make sure family time during the holidays had zero distractions? With Xfinity Wi-Fi, you can pause the kids' Wi-Fi and enjoy those special moments together.

Speaker 1 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 1 What? Someone has to make sure there's exactly the same amount of chocolate chips in each cookie.

Speaker 1 And what if your Wi-Fi could proactively fix issues before they even happen? Well, that's exactly what Xfinity Wi-Fi does.

Speaker 1 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.

Speaker 1 It's brilliant. And during the holidays, that brilliance, that's a gift.
Xfinity, imagine that. Ever heard of the Trans-America Trail?

Speaker 1 It's America's longest off-road trail, a 5,900-plus-mile coast-to-coast monster. And now, for the first time, Ford and Google Maps are bringing the full Trans-America Trail to Street View.

Speaker 1 It's one of America's most epic off-road adventures, and now every adventurer can plan, preview, and explore it themselves. How did they do it?

Speaker 1 By equipping the 2025 Ford Bronco Badlands with Google's new Street View camera, while the Expedition Tremor and Ranger Lariat carried the team and tools that made it all possible.

Speaker 1 You know, Matt and I weren't super familiar with the off-roading game until the summer when we took a dunes tour and went off-road, and now I totally get it, and I envy the adventure that people off-road take when they go to the Trans-America Trail.

Speaker 1 I may never drive on a road again. So whether you're planning to trek across the country or head out on a weekend adventure, scout out the trail on Street View.

Speaker 1 Explore, challenge yourself, and let your Ford handle the rest. The trail's waiting.
You win. Find the Trans-America Trail on Google Maps and hit the off-road.
Ready, set, Ford.

Speaker 1 You ever just stop in the middle of a crazy day and realize, wow, I needed a break. It literally happened to me yesterday.
I cracked open a Diet Coke, sat back for five minutes, total reset. Right?

Speaker 1 There's something about the crispy, refreshing taste of an ice-cold Diet Coke. It just hits.
It's my little me moment, like make time for a Diet Coke break, you know? Exactly.

Speaker 1 Diet Coke is the perfect companion for all break moments. Diet Coke, this is my taste.

Speaker 1 Did you have something? Have you had something? Yeah, I've got something, but I don't know whether I'm going to be able to. I just need to get my energy up.

Speaker 1 Let me have a sip of coffee. I'll drink coffee and

Speaker 1 save it. Wait, do you guys drink coffee? Yeah, do you? I can't.
Why? I can't. It makes me go, it makes me go insane.
Does it not make you insane? I thought you were going to say something else.

Speaker 1 It makes me go shit. And you're like,

Speaker 1 it makes me poo. Yeah.
And do you say poo in America? In Canada, we would say poo more than poo. He's probably more likely to say poo than me.
We said poo in Canada, but now I'm now more American.

Speaker 1 I spent more time in the States. It's poop.
Poop. Okay.

Speaker 1 See, I don't like poop either. I always say poop.

Speaker 1 you know what? I'm ready. Okay.

Speaker 1 This is Matt Rogers.

Speaker 1 I don't think so, honey. His time starts now.
I don't think so, honey. The word poop.
There's nothing worse, worst letter in the alphabet by far. P.
I'm sorry. I can lose it.
There are so many better.

Speaker 1 And also, not for nothing, but there's enough Peters. There's enough Patricks.
There's enough Paul's. Like, let's get more creative.
Let's explore the letter Q. Okay.

Speaker 1 How about how about more Quintins and Quentins in the world? Quintins and Quentins.

Speaker 1 Here's what I don't like. That letter I hate at the end,

Speaker 1 you have to say it not once, but twice. Let's not even get into what we're talking about when we say the word.
Fecal matter. Oh.
I think that fecal matter.

Speaker 1 There's one time that Bowen and I wrote a piece. We wrote a show and he wrote a line.
It was the funniest thing I ever heard. He said, you were a vital fecal woman.

Speaker 1 And I said, calling someone fecal and talking about feces is better than poop grow up and say

Speaker 1 grow up and say um five seconds short not poop i'm so hungover and that's one minute wow that was quite searing that was that was serious but i would i i do want to say for context the line you vile fecal woman was in response to your character taunting me by saying that you had eaten my husband's ass out you vile fecal woman so that's i'll never forget to do your line read oh thank you yeah i was like i was eating your husband's ass last night.

Speaker 1 You said you were

Speaker 1 fecal woman. Oh, that's good.
Owen's a wonderful writer.

Speaker 1 Away with a quill. Away with words.
I didn't get to say this. It's really the fact that it's like poop.
It's that poop is cute. I don't think so.
Pooh. I was going to say poo is cute.
Poop is cute.

Speaker 1 No, poo is like you're dancing around. Oh, P-O-O is cute.
P-O is cute. And also he looks cute.
Poop. But poop is a palindrome.
Oh, what?

Speaker 1 Spelled the same way front as it is back. Oh, I love that.
A new word today. A new word today.
Yeah. All right.
Matt's got his sunglasses. I've left the building.
Actually, you've inspired me. Yeah.

Speaker 1 I'm not going to do a letter. I'm going to do something else.
Okay. You can guess.
So this would be our lucky day because it's Boen Yang's. I don't think so, honey.
His time starts now.

Speaker 1 I don't think so, honey. The number nine.

Speaker 1 What are you giving? Prime number, square number?

Speaker 1 That's all you have going on. Not a prime number.
That's all you will ever be. Let's go through them.
One, amazing, iconic. Two, amazing, iconic.

Speaker 1 Three, one of the most important numbers, the rule of three. Four, I like.
And Beyonce. Four, great Beyonce album.
Five, really important. You need the halfway to 10.

Speaker 1 You really need that as a benchmark. Yeah.
In a counting system. Six, I like.

Speaker 1 I love six. Seven, oh, name a prettier number than seven.
Eight, I love eight. You eight.
You eight. Nine.

Speaker 1 Hold on, hold on, hold on. Nine?

Speaker 1 What are you giving us? You might as well be 10. You know what I mean? I don't know.
What are you doing, nine?

Speaker 1 You're pussyfooting around 10. I think you should nut up

Speaker 1 and go up to 10 or go down to eight because that's a prettier number. Or you might as well be seven because nothing beats seven.
That's one minute. Wow.
Now, why was six afraid of seven?

Speaker 1 Why? Because seven ate nine.

Speaker 1 And because nine is.

Speaker 1 Nine can only be eaten and nine will never eat. I think they wanted to eat nine because nine's delicious, quite frankly.
I love nine. I feel bad for nine at this point.
I feel really bad for nine.

Speaker 1 Why? Why do you feel they need to defend nine? Because you think it's catching strays and did nothing to deserve it. I think so.
Do you have nine in your in your sort of date of birth or anything?

Speaker 1 Is it like a new media number?

Speaker 1 1989?

Speaker 1 Oh, 1994. Yeah.
Hello. I'm sorry.
I'm born in 1990. I'm made of the stuff.
1999. Nine.
What about the movie Nine? Love.

Speaker 1 So you've seen that. So you've seen.
So you've seen one film. So you've seen a movie.

Speaker 1 You know that I saw nine twice in theaters. I know that about you, yeah.

Speaker 1 I do know that one. Who do you identify with from nine? The one,

Speaker 1 who's she got a famous mom? Kate Hudson. Kate Hudson.
Same.

Speaker 1 You two are Kate Hudson. Literally, when I saw Kate Hudson at nine, I was like, I finally saw myself on screen.
Wow. Yeah.
The reporter with like a fucking huge piece in her hair.

Speaker 1 The hair was sticking in my fucking Italiano.

Speaker 1 So good. She's like throwing ass.

Speaker 1 Is it a remake? Of eight and a half. It's like a reimagining of eight and a half.
Okay, right. Eight and a half, random.
Random. Random.
No, no, no, that's

Speaker 1 a nine. What about half a mile? Time and three quarters.
Might as well be ten.

Speaker 1 Also, we're not elevating that transphobes word. Oh, yeah, sorry, transphobes.
No, no, no. You know, I'm kidding.
I'm coming back.

Speaker 1 You know who hates you now? JK. Charlie and Troy.

Speaker 1 They just want to go back

Speaker 1 to 99.

Speaker 1 I find nine quite chic when it's next to another nine or any other number. Nine is chic.
Nine is so chic. Nine is actually the chicest number.
I don't know, y'all. Nine by itself, I don't enjoy.

Speaker 1 It gives me anxiety. I say, go to 10.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 I think, honestly, if I'm really thinking about the numbers, three pisses me off. Nine doesn't want the responsibility of 10, you know?

Speaker 1 Nor should it take on responsibility it can't handle. Did you think about that? But it won't.
That's why that's the number of people. I know.
I think 9 is a lot of restraints. 10 is whole.
10 is.

Speaker 1 10 is king. By the way, I don't think 9 is a prime number.

Speaker 1 I'm sorry, it's not. I take that back, of course.
Oh, God. I can't believe I knew a number thing when you did it.
I am deeply mistaken. Amelia.
Because you know what you can do with nine.

Speaker 1 Split it in threes. But I hate 3.

Speaker 1 Yes. Wait.
Also, if you don't have nine you can't have 69 the best sexual position oh no i don't know

Speaker 1 i don't know have y'all have y'all have you guys reminiscing have y'all have y'all six have y'all 69 recently because it's always like i don't know what it's all canceling out

Speaker 1 like it's it's unnecessary i kind of love it unnecessary

Speaker 1 i kind of love it i like it in theory i'm thinking about it i'm going oh that's nice i don't like why is it called 69 because you are a six and a nine or someone's a six and some nine

Speaker 1 you catching my dream maybe i'm doing it wrong Like, like, if this is a six and that's a body, here comes nine,

Speaker 1 and there's a little isn't it more of an eight?

Speaker 1 No,

Speaker 1 let's actually think about this before we say no, before we like disrespect her suggestion,

Speaker 1 let's think about it. No,

Speaker 1 okay, glad we created that one up, but could you understand why it's 69? No, so it's

Speaker 1 so look, look, look, Bowen, we have to show her. This is what it is.
It's like, it's like, like, all right, let's show her.

Speaker 1 One person is, like, this is the tail, and then that's.

Speaker 1 By the way, this is administrative. And then, see, like,

Speaker 1 it's like we're symmetrical. That doesn't look like a six or a nine to me.

Speaker 1 That does not look like a six or a nine. Amelia,

Speaker 1 do you want me to do it to you?

Speaker 1 Do you want me to do it to you? No.

Speaker 1 I'm fragile. You've had it already.
Fragile. Period.
Period.

Speaker 1 I think that 69 is great when it's not side by side. I have to be.

Speaker 1 You have to be down? I sort of be exactly what I just did to you. Just like that.
Just like that.

Speaker 1 Oh, yeah. That's just the best.
That's what we just saw there.

Speaker 1 That is romance. You know what's going to happen? This video is going to come out audio first, and then a couple of days later, video, and they're not going to be able to wait to watch me 69 Bowen.

Speaker 1 It has to be. We have been getting a lot of requests to kiss lately.
Have you seen that? That's like

Speaker 1 kisses.

Speaker 1 Who's there? I'm like, where's sister? The fans. The fans.
Kissing's fun, yeah. My favorite thing to do.
Do you guys want to all kiss? Yeah. No, challenges.
challenges.

Speaker 1 Challengers, darling. Challengers.
Oh, wow. You all in the middle.

Speaker 1 You're Zendaya, obviously. But then who are we? I'm,

Speaker 1 I think I might be Feist, I guess. Yeah.
I'm Josh.

Speaker 1 You're like the scuzzier, messier one. No, that's a conscious compliment.
You're for the streets.

Speaker 1 We were saying, we were saying one of my favorite comments about me recently online was that I need to stop pushing Bowen to talk about his sex life just because I'm for the streets.

Speaker 1 I wish I was for the streets. Yeah, you are for the streets.
Look at the top you're wearing, you slut.

Speaker 1 You're such a sweet slut. She's taking a turn.

Speaker 1 There's a shy girl song where she's like, she goes, I'm for the streets, bitch. Yeah, that's right.
Really good. I'm for the streets.

Speaker 1 All right, are you ready to show the streets what you got? You said you had something. I do.
Okay, this is Amelia Devalda brings out a thing so, honey. Her time starts now.

Speaker 1 I don't think so, honey. Magicians.
Okay, give it a go. Okay, what? I don't need a man to tell me something I don't know.

Speaker 1 Hello. Don't trick me.
What? Stop. Stop doing it.
Also, where are the female magicians? I don't see any of them.

Speaker 1 Okay. It's a feminist issue.
The only women around magic are getting sawn in half. No.
Okay.

Speaker 1 No, thank you. Playing cards.
Sleight of hand. I just don't think it's necessary, really.
And I also think it's... I've been to the Magic Castle.
Wow. Smell bad.
Smell bad. Smell bad.

Speaker 1 Smell really bad. Also, it's not real.

Speaker 1 What? Magic. Oh,

Speaker 1 what?

Speaker 1 Magic's not real. Show me some real magic.
Find me an emotionally available man who can buy me dinner. Oh, my God.
That's all I want.

Speaker 1 Isn't it? Don't pull a rabbit out of a hat. They don't want to be there.
And that's one minute. Amelia.
First of all, I think that you are so right to call out the gender inequality

Speaker 1 in this art form. Yes.
Yes, it's true. It's weird, isn't it? There's no as Olivia Rodrigo once said,

Speaker 1 it's brutal out here.

Speaker 1 Exactly. No, but I think there's a reason why women don't want to be magicians because they know it's like not appropriate

Speaker 1 to be a magician. Appropriate in the sense that like

Speaker 1 it's not appropriate really to be a magician. It's lying.
It's lying. Yes, it's lying.
It's just more men lying than me. Right.
And I don't want it around me. What if you like magic?

Speaker 1 I can appreciate it. Okay.
But like, what if,

Speaker 1 okay, I mean, hold on, hold on. What if they're like, we're going to pay you

Speaker 1 five million dollars if you learn magic? Like, gone.

Speaker 1 It's so lame.

Speaker 1 Magic. You don't need that money.

Speaker 1 What am I going to be doing? Like,

Speaker 1 sorry. If you were going to do magic, what would, like, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker 1 You should find a like Elaine. You should do fashion magic.
Fashion magic.

Speaker 1 Or like, oh, no. Or like when they like turn their clothes inside out.
Yeah, it's. Damn, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 We don't need it. We don't need it.
Oh, wait, no, no, no, but no,

Speaker 1 you know who I do kind of like who? Dave, is it David Blaine? Yeah, David Blaine. Oh, he's is he cancelled?

Speaker 1 We don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 1 Do we know if David Blaine is cancelled? Is he canceled? Can we find out?

Speaker 1 Just Google search David Blaine canceled. You can still like him if he's cancelled.
No, I just, okay, that's the kind of magic I can, maybe I'm into that. But that's more like risking your life.

Speaker 1 Like, you could maybe die.

Speaker 1 Right, and that's not deceit. There's no deceit in that.
That's death-defying. Have you ever seen Chris Angel? Mind freak! No.

Speaker 1 Okay. Okay.
Okay, I hate it. All right.

Speaker 1 Got it. Damn.
You're right. They're bad.
They're bad. So I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 Point brave.

Speaker 1 Wait, but where are the, is there one female which you know who I shared a birthday with? Pen Jillette.

Speaker 1 Oh.

Speaker 1 Are they the ones who shoot themselves?

Speaker 1 Penn and teller, right? Penn and Teller with the gun. I don't know if they're not doing this.
Wait, you're stupid. I've never interacted with Snig Fried and Roy.
They got mulled by their own tigers.

Speaker 1 That's why I'm saying a dumb.

Speaker 1 We should have just hung it up. Also, Magic Castle, get the carpet cleaner out.

Speaker 1 It smells like a bunch.

Speaker 1 Have you been there? I've not been. I've not been there.

Speaker 1 I don't know. I've been there.
Have you been there?

Speaker 1 I've been there. Unfortunately.
No, did you get invited by a magician

Speaker 1 by a magician?

Speaker 1 And how did you know this magician? Just friend for friend. I wouldn't personally associate myself.
You would try to smash. I wouldn't personally associate myself with magician spot.

Speaker 1 Were you trying to smash? I wasn't trying to smash the magician. No.
Magician is not my time. As we were, I don't think so, honey.
Magicians. That was brutal.
And the best way.

Speaker 1 I'm on your side completely. It was a steering takedown.
Thank you. Amelia Damaldenberg.
