in history. This is the earliest episode in history.
7am PT, 8am MT. Here we go now.
Mountain girl! Mountain girl! So, apparently if you see one of the Salt Lake City housewives in Park City at Sundance, it's like not a big deal and I don't understand. So what...
Why isn't everyone shouting, throwing roses at these women wherever they go? Oh my God, I was gagged. Talk about this.
The one and only couple, Seth and Meredith Marks, showed up to the wedding banquet after party, looking stunning, the both of them. Yes! There was a lion dance, a traditional lion dance with, you know, I'm going to say, gorgeous white people.
Perhaps they were Mormons. I love potential Mormons doing the lion dance in front of a crowd.
The lion dance? So you're not saying lion dance in a fun way. You're saying saying lion dance like L-I-O-N dance.
There was a traditional dance in Chinese culture and some Asian cultures where people dress in a traditional sequined lion costume and dance to loud cymbals and drums. Oh, Becca, producer Becca says, I love a traditional lion dance.
She's familiar with the lion dance. Okay, and the Marxists joined in? The Marxists appreciated the lion dance, but Seth, this is someone who likes bits.
Seth taps me on the shoulder, holds up his phone that's Shazam-ing, and he goes, I don't know what this song is. And my Shazam doesn't know.
He's a goof-a-loofa. One of the great goof-a-loofas.
Sometimes it gets him in trouble on the program. It gets him in trouble on the program, but we all know it's in jest.
And Meredith, looking wonderful, having a great time. Meredith, I want to use the platform to apologize.
She invited me to the store. She was throwing a party that night, but I got, guess what? Overserved.
Could not make it. Were you over served?

I was over served, but not in a bad

way. You can hear from my

voice. You were just like, it's time to cap

it. I capped it.
I capped it at five.

Oh my God. One of our third

AD on set, a woman by the name of Nicola.

And I stan

a woman named Nicola. I love, and especially

third AD. Third AD,

she was bringing us to the bar to get shots. And here we go.
It just, that's the recipe for Zazasta. It was a Zazasta scene.
Actually, title of that, Zazasta scene. Zazasta scene.
Zazasta with a Z. Yes.
Z in the middle, that's who. That's who.
The best part of any party with the crew after you do anything is finding out who that girl is that's like we're doing shots. And more than often, it is someone on the AD team.
Now, can you explain for all the readers, Katie's publicist, finalist, and Kyle? Yes, of course. Who the...
That was the first time, by the way. Welcome, Kyle.
Welcome, Kyle. I embrace you.
A couple people have come up to me at, yes, you guessed it, Barry's self-identified as a Kyle's. And that is a likely place for them to be.
Likely story. We got to get a new shirt done, says Becca.
I agree. Maybe a jersey.
Okay, so, but explain to the girls what an AD is and why they might want to blow off such theme. An assistant director, vital part of any set.
First AD is usually on set, calling action, you know, kind of logistically moving the day along. Second AD is at base camp, or as they say in Vancouver, circus.
Oh! Which I kind of love. Very Brittany.
All eyes on the talent. All eyes on Nicola.
And Nicola is third AD, which also means she's in a circus capacity. She's a circus queen.
Yes, she's on foot at the circus. She's on foot on the tightrope.
Yeah. So basically for this person to be like, we're doing shots, understand their job, the entire process, as long as to keep things on time, get people where they're going.
It is all about making the day. And so for those people at the whatever gathering, whatever party, whether it's at the Sundance or some sort of rap situation to see that person let off steam and go for it and say, we're going to the bar ripping shots, I not only celebrate them, but I join them in a shot.
And I raise my glass now. Matt, you would be obsessed with this.
Let's give a toast to Nicola. A morning toast.
To Nicola. To the third AD on the wedding banquet.
Thank you for getting the party going last night. I wasn't there, but I was always there in spirit.
I'm always where my sister is right by his side

as a ghost. Oh my god, I'm crying.

You are with

me in all ways. I was missing you.

But one last thing about Nicola.

She was such an

important third AD because she would

have, especially on the

night shoots, she had

either Britney Spears, speaking

of Britney, either Britney playing or Biggest swifty on set always was blasting taylor there we go to you to nicola to you nicola a name of a swifty if i've ever heard one absolutely now matt what are you doing to gear up for a big trip that we're taking together well first of all i want, I want to talk about that, but can we just, because we're in the disaster scene of Sundance, can I just say that the Wedding Banquets reviews are out. They are extremely positive.
Everyone's saying such gorgeous things like heartwarming. They're saying excellent ensemble.
They're saying Yoo Jung-yeon is like another standout performance. They're saying the words Joan Chen, like they should have been saying on oscar nominations morning still have a bone to pick with you about that you can sneak in jone chen's name there but they're saying these things yes and i just want to know from you how did it feel watching the movie the wedding banquet directed by andrew on friend of the pod director of fire island how are you feeling in the dance i feel so lucky.
First of all, we are very lucky. We have distribution already.
April 18th in theaters. Get going.
Come on, Bleecker Street. Come on, Bleecker Street.
Thank you. Come on, Shiv Hans.
Yes. But it's just nice to, you know, come in with that.
And what a beautiful celebration of Andrew's talent as a filmmaker of all the crew.

So many of them flew out for this.

So nice to see them again.

Beautiful celebration of Kelly Marie Tran, who fucking tore to force.

That's what they're saying.

I'm so happy for her.

Oh, my God.

Just you fucking wait, Matt.

Just you fucking wait.

Hangi Chan, who plays my boyfriend, his first English speaking role, his first time in the States he's a glass skin baby he is so gorgeous and so wonderful as a performer just a great I love an ensemble I love an ensemble can I just say me too and Joan Chan I mean they are the standouts in the film by far and I'm so honored that I got to work with any of these people that I just named. It was just such a beautiful thing for Andrew.
He got the idea for the movie. I mean, he was approached to reimagine the movie at Sundance when he was there with Spa Night, his first film.
Oh, wow. And so it's so full circle in so many ways.
And everyone at the fest, at the dance, I should say, at the Zazasta scene has been so, so, so warm and welcoming

and kind of a fun,

I'm really grateful that I get to experience

Park City Sundance

before it moves to another city.

Do we think that's definitely happening?

So among the trustees,

the board,

the candidate cities

are kind of whittling down to,

this is the scuttlebutt. So this is just the scuttlebutt.
There's no revelations happening here. No revelations.
And also I have to say, I'm so disappointed that Park City's going to lose it. But it's, who knows? It might not.
Okay. What's the scuttlebutt? What's the rumors? Scuttlebutt is Salt Lake City.
Mm-hmm. Oh.
Just, you know, 15 miles away, but in a more sort of- Down the road. A little bit more infrastructure to support, you bit more infrastructure to support the size of the scale of the festival and then you could hop in a car and go to the ski lift and walk around Park City I'm sure Park City that might be a really nice option because Park City still it doesn't totally strip the economy away from Park City well and also you could still use Park City as those theaters and like and like, you know, maybe it wouldn't have to feel completely different.
You know, it could be just like, because it is, I would imagine that the reason they're moving is because it's demanding a larger space. Is that ultimately why? Okay.
So you're saying Salt Lake City. Which I think is my, weirdly my favorite option.
And then you have Cincinnati, which I think is actually kind of chic. And this is what James Sheamus, co-writer of The Wedding Banquet, original film and the new film.
And he's the one who just, I've been, I've quoted on this podcast many times before, has all these incredible thoughts about the way that like algorithmic structures have ruined society. Oh my God.
I need some shots brought over to us as well. Oh james james is a big proponent of cincinnati he's like bring it to a city in the midwest or somewhere where there's just a great cross-section of all these different populations bring different audiences in to appreciate this kind of film like that is what that is what sundance should be as like a home for independent film and i was like, okay, points were made.
And then the third, which I find super interesting as a Coloradan, Boulder. Boulder would be very fun.
Boulder! Keep the vibes of where we've always been. Mountain vibes.
Yes! Now is Boulder Mountain Time? Yes, it is. It is.
Oh, a gorgeous Mountain Time. I wouldn't want Sundance to not be in the Mountain Time region.
Of course. Of course.
Sundance is so huge for Mountain Time. It's the one time of year people even think about Mountain Time if you're not living in it already.
You're like, we had to get on this podcast today. I was like, well, Bowen is, let me check his notes, 8 a.m.
Mountain Time. Girl.
Well, okay. So you're saying it's the one time a year where people think about Mountain Time.
It's a huge moment for Mountain Time internationally. What do you have to say? Oh, I see.
Because, guess what? Aspen Gay Ski Week, we're all like, oh, right, that's happening, and you're there. Awesome.
Which, no judgment, because I would very much like to go one year.. But it doesn't have quite the cultural impact.
It doesn't give Mountain Time the sort of legitimacy culturally as Sundance does. No, Sundance is, that's high culture.
High culture. It brings Mountain Time up with it.
Because the rest of the year, Mountain Time is in the doldrums with the Housewives of Salt Lake City. Think about this.
Everything you see on the Housewives of Salt Lake City that's not a vacation is happening in mountain time.

That's why it's so good.

You're on to something. Think about

the elevation in those women's brains.

I'm telling you.

If we're going to quote Sarah Sherman's

brain scientist neighbor,

we're closer to the ozone here, and so

we're going crazier. Neighbor hack.

Oh, just to

get back on Meredith. Yes.

I was like, first of all, congratulations on another stellar

I'm going to go ahead and get started. we're closer to the ozone here.
And so we're going crazier. Exactly.
Neighbor hack. Oh,

just to get back on Meredith.

Yes.

I was like,

first of all,

congratulations on another stellar season.

I looked both of them in the eye and said,

thank you for being on the best show on television period.

Yes.

What did they say?

They received it.

They received it.

Such gracious people.

Mm hmm.

And I said to Meredith,

how do you feel about the season overall? She says, I liked it. I'm really happy with it.
Such gracious people. And I said to Meredith, how do you feel about the season overall? She says, I liked it.
I'm really happy with it. The finale was a bit truncated.
She was like, I had issues with the finale. And I was like, oh.
She was just like, it just felt a little, it did feel like it ended on such an abrupt note. So she agrees with us.
She agrees with the fan community. Yes, yes, yes.
And I didn't want to bring up, like, how do I move forward in this life? How do you and I move forward in this life as equal Meredith Marks and Angie Katzennevis stans? Very easily. I think very easily because it's like we said to Angie, it's like one feeds the other.
the bigger one gets the bigger the other gets it's a gorgeous symbiotic relationship it's like if the substance was incredibly positive that's the rule of culture Meredith Marks this rule of culture is 77 Meredith Marks and Angie Ketzenavisvis is like, if substance were incredibly positive. Positive.
Take that again. No, it's good.
They get it. It's incredibly positive.
No, I was going to say, guess what? The Joker movies are just as big as the Batman movies. Say that.
And those are two adversaries locked into cosmic dance. Yes, 100%.
And I'm not even ascribing one Joker and one Batman because that would be to say that there's a hero and a villain. But here's what I would posit.
Maybe both are antiheroes. Okay.
That's the whole thing about Batman. And you forgot it.
And I'm pointing to you, the royal you. I am saying you forgot that the Batman was an anti-hero vigilante story.
Because guess what?

Sure, he saves lives and beats the villains, but you know what? He's a billionaire. Evil! Girl, you ate bars.
You ate bars. Okay, you see Meredith Marks, you didn't make it to her store.
By the way, I'm telling you, I've been a couple times because I went to Sundance a few years ago. I made it up top of my priority list to get into Meredith Marks' shop and it's a lovely experience.
Next time, top of list for you. Yes.
Maybe we'll go together someday and we'll sort of storm in there. Oh, but if it moves, I hope it but i maybe it has to move next year's the last year um matt and i would love to show up in any capacity just just just to watch the films to hang out at the acura energy house you know to chill at the adobe lounge i love the names of the i love like the chase sapphire um you know fire pit fire pit yeah like i love it i love like Express hot chocolate bar.
Like truly. And that's what you're going to get when you go to Sundance is you're going to get a lot of incredibly sponsored quaint activities.
Activations down. Yeah, activations down.
Oh, my hotel phone's ringing. One second.
Oh, picking up. Good, how so far that would be wonderful thank you so much and then I'm so sorry I'm recording a podcast but if you could leave it at the door that would be wonderful oh this is good thank you so much yes that would be great he's so good at handling stuff like this okay we're gonna leave that all in no, that was really good because I was sort of narrating to the readers exactly how well you're a communicator.
How would you rate that interaction? That was a 10 out of 10. Really? I love the dulcet tones that you spoke in.
Thank you. And I am recording a podcast, so if you could leave it outside the door.
Thank you so much.

It's a little early, and so I'm not, like, totally on.

I don't know how to interact with the world

yet. You were giving Selena

Gomez wrapped in the blanket asking for, you know

what I mean, that meme? That's

actually the best meme. Selena Gomez

wrapped in, like, what is that, like an Adirondack

blanket? Yes. Just a

gorgeous, big knit. The best

one, because it was like, this is me

when I, the best was

I'm going to go ahead and get some more questions. wrapped in like, what is that? Like an Adirondack blanket? Yes.
Just a gorgeous big knit. The best one because it was like, this is me when I the best was when I calmly asked the flight attendant for a ginger ale after waking up on the plane.
It was Cindy Battles tweet and it's one of the best tweets of all time. In a clear, calm voice.
Yeah, this is it. Cindy Battles tweet.
Me rising from my edible coma to ask the flight attendant for a ginger ale in a clear, considerate voice that conveys gratefulness and respect. Did Becca just put it in? There it is.
Honestly, this picture of her and us is the image for this episode. This is exactly the vibe right now.
This is Selena wrapped in this blanket and then us with our heads wrapped in this blanket. Tell Spencer, who, by the way, people have been asking about who's been crushing our graphic design.
It has not been the very busy Bo and Yang. It has been Spencer.
Also very busy. Not that Bo and Yang couldn't also tear down these graphic designs, but we have been truly blessed by the team.

Crushing, truly.

Now, so you saw Meredith Marks.

Were there any other Housewives sightings?

There were many sightings.

Lisa Barlow was, I will reveal.

Queen of Sundance.

The Queen of Sundance.

There's a Vita tequila lounge that he was not able to make it to.

One of our producers ran into Lisa with his husband and they were so excited

to see it. They're like, Lisa Barlow, we're such

huge fans. It's so nice to meet you.

First thing she says to them is,

hi guys. Oh my God, what do you guys

think of Bronwyn? First thing

out the gate is asking

about Bronwyn.

I think we have to leave that in.

Hi guys. Oh my God, what do you guys think about

Bronwyn? Like already.

I mean, this is

just remarkable. It's like

I'm not going to leave that in. We have to leave that in.
Hi, guys. Oh, my God.
What do you guys think about Bronwyn? Like, already. I mean, this is just remarkable.
It's like, this is what I tend to forget about Housewives, honestly. It's like, this is their real lives.
It's not as put on as we would like, as I am inclined to believe. I mean, I was watching an interview with Bozema last night, who, by the way, I've grown to really like.
I like Bozema. I love Bozema.
And I think it's like really, really, she brings so much to the show. And also heartbreaking, her home burned down in the fires.
In Malibu, yes. So all the best to anyone who's still struggling, by the way.
Like, damn. But I was watching an interview with her and she was like, you i did it because xyz reasons and then she was like my one thing was i really didn't realize it was going to be so real but the relationships are very real and sure the show is produced in terms of like they nudge you in terms of things to bring up or whatever but the stuff that like all goes into the conflict for the episodes is real and all based in real stuff and when you are arguing with someone that's a real argument it's not like you get off screen and high five and are like you know tee hee hee we really ate that scene it's like oh we just had an actual conflict that was captured for everyone and she was saying that that was the big realization from her time on the show.
So Lisa Barlow strolling down, even the Queen of Sundance has in the back of her mind her conflict with Bronwyn. Right.
Bronwyn is top of mind for her on a week like this. Well, you know, I want to know why.
It's because I thought last week Lisa and Bronwyn was tough. Really tough.
Because honestly, even if you're not a big Bronwyn fan,

I think one storyline where she was incredibly sympathetic and my heart really did break for her

was when she shared the story of the background

of Gwen's parentage.

So she has a daughter, Gwen,

and she got pregnant out of wedlock with a very Mormon baby daddy and the father and the mother of him basically didn't accept her basically just tough Mormon stuff with the child coming and she was 19, Becca reminds us and so it's been a very, very, very difficult relationship. Gwen's father doesn't know her because he's passed away since.
Wow, this is, as I'm reminding myself, as I'm saying this, it gets even darker. But anyway, guys, please give me grace.
Remember it's 7 a.m. But it's a tough situation and Lisa is somehow finding herself in the middle of it.
And I think that all Bronwyn was really wanting in that reunion exchange was just for Lisa to acknowledge the fact that Gwen's feelings had been hurt by Lisa in regards to all this. And Lisa just couldn't do that.
But I think Lisa is feeling the guilt and the impact of what she has maybe wrought by just by mentioning certain specifics on the after show as it were and um i think she just might have a hard time apologizing or just taking any taking some accountability for a situation like this and it's why we love lisa but it's also really it's mean, that was a hard, I mean, we're huge Lisa Barlow fans in this house. That was a particularly tough thing to watch.
But these are, this is the thing. We're just saying that these are human beings and it's a show of antiheroes and we love them for it.
So Lisa Barlow was out and about. I know I saw Heather Gay in some photos.
Well, Heather Gay and Stephen, and our friend Stephen Simbari were hanging out having a grand old time.

I'm just so... Because I

came to Sundance. I'm on a tight

ish schedule. I'm disappointed

I don't have time to ski to hit the slopes here.

Bummer. And I didn't really get a chance to

screen any of their films. I was really excited for that

opportunity. Didn't quite have time for that.

It's so hard. People don't even

realize that. It's like impossible to get into

shit. It's tough.
It's really tough. And so shout out to anyone who came to our screening.
Thank you so much for that. It's so hard.
People don't even realize that. It's like impossible to get into shit.
It's tough. It's really tough.
And so shout out to anyone who came to our screening. Thank you so much for coming to the Eccles.
But I was just prepared mentally. I was like, you know what? Maybe there will be no Housewives moments this trip, and that will be okay.
And lo and behold, Meredith. Meredith, thank you for making I mean, this just completed the entire experience for me.
Thank you, Meredith. Genuinely, truly.
Meredith and Seth thank you for making I mean this was this just completed the entire experience for me thank you Meredith genuinely truly Meredith and Seth thank you for coming and supporting the film they did not see the film unfortunately but they are very excited to very hard to get in I must reveal there was much consideration and discussion with Andrew as the director and the producers who are all Housewives fans there was a scene that we had to cut from the movie where Lily's character and I are in the back house, hiding away from the situation that happens in the main house. And we're surrounded by all these boxes and we're just like escaping from our realities for a moment.
And I'm showing Lily's character Lee. Chris is showing Lily's character Lee.
The beach scene where Heather gathers all the women to reveal reality of Ante. And it's cut from the movie? It's cut from the, just because tonally it just kind of, you know, I understand, but tonally it just didn't quite fit.
But it was just, it was going to be the biggest laugh in the film, I believe. Well, I'm ready to give my review of The Wedding Banquet.
No, no. This movie no no it had all the elements and i'm really disappointed i won't be able to support it in theaters i'm sorry matthew i understand i won't be able to support it but no it was i mean like lily and i were just improvising around the house around the salt lake city housewives i was in heaven the crew crying, laughing.
Our DP was shaking with laughter, being like, what is this show? This sounds incredible. And I was like, you guys, you need to watch this television program.
Okay, like truly. You have spread the gospel.
And then, oh my God, for Meredith and Seth to come to the party, was that a full circle moment? Well, but they knew because I had to personally reach out to all the housewives because because our produce our producers were not hearing back from their people to clear that clip and so they were like bowen can you please do us a solid get in heather gets dms and so i had to like reach out draft this beautiful letter heart from the heart i was like whatever i can read it at some point i can't pull it up now because it will take too long. Oh my God, we do at some point need a reading of the ask that you sent to the housewives.
But they were all so understanding, so wonderful, so generous with letting us use that moment in our film and I'm so disappointed. For reasons that I understand, this is not a contemptuous thing.
I'm just like, that's my one thing that I mourn. Deleted scenes.
This is yet another Bowen Yang deleted scene. Oh my goodness.
You might be the legend of the cutting room floor. I miss deleted...
DVD culture was deleted scene culture. And now we have YouTube.
And featurette culture. Featurette culture, yeah.
Definitely. But the featurette...
With the the youtube stuff you have to seek it out right and i'm so glad i saw that the substance feature because i loved that after you see it but with featurette culture and deleted scene culture that was presented in front of you as part of the package as part of like the sit down i'm gonna say this right now there's one film that we both love that that had amazing DVD features. And I think this movie, if you really boil it down to DVD culture and when it was at its peak.
Yes. This movie is peak DVD culture.
And we're going to say it on three together. No, I don't know.
I don't know what you mean. I'm going to say it and you're going to wish that you had rolled the dice.
Now I'm going to count down. Three, two, one.

Charlie's Angels.

Charlie's Angels.

Oh my God.

Wait, I was, why was I so underconfident?

You said Charlie's Angels.

I was going to say Charlie's Angels full throttle.

First of all, Charlie's Angels.

No, because Charlie's Angels full throttle was a few years later.

My sister.

No, I knew you knew.

I knew you knew.

Why did I ever doubt myself?

I love you.

Love you back.

I mean, I'm just saying that I knew you knew. Why did I ever doubt myself? I love you.
Love you back. I mean, I'm just saying that I knew you knew.

This episode is supported by FX's Dying for Sex,

starring Michelle Williams and Jenny Slate.

Inspired by a true story,

this series follows Molly,

who after receiving a terminal cancer diagnosis, decides to leave her husband and explore the full breadth of her sexual desires. She gets the courage and support to go on this sex quest from her best friend, Nikki, who stays by her side through it all.
FX is dying for sex. All episodes streaming April 4th on Hulu.
The Charlie's Angels special feature is the first one, especially because, like, the way the fire and the rock music would play. God, just the best movies ever.
Best movies ever! Can I say? Ever! Oh my god, Matt, if you're gonna get asked by Letterboxd very soon what your four favorites are. Oh God.
Both times I've been asked. Both times I've said Charlie's Angels.
And this time on the red carpet yesterday, they were there. I was able to share because Charlie XCX is Letterboxd League.
Did you see this? Yes, I did. And I really enjoy Charlie XCX's Letterboxd.
Charlie's Angels was on that list. Which then prompted me to reach out to her and be like, oh my God, that movie's on mine.
And then we both bonded about how it is cinema classic. Yeah.
It's so good. I mean, like, it's also like so gorgeously self-aware.
I mean, just it's so fun. It exists to be fun, but also the plot is good and the twists are good.
Yes, absolutely. What do you make of the scuttlebutt now? That part three.
I mean, all the women are on board for part three. The three of them got on a Zoom with Demi recently just discussing how fun that movie was.
Full throttle. And I just, they all look like, I want to see them all in a movie again like that.
Yeah, I would deeply, especially because Cameron's now, I guess, out of retirement. Right.
In some way, fashion. I feel like, you know, while we love Drew on her daytime show, it'd be great to see her in the cinema.
Absolutely. Lucy's making a comeback.
Lucy's always welcome. Yeah.
I mean, and also Demi's having the moment. Demi did, of course, I don't know, a spoiler alert for Charlie's Angels Full Throttle, but Demi does plummet into a fiery pit.
So it would be a lot for her to come back because they really do show her becoming engulfed in flames. But let me tell you something, in the world of Charlie's Angels, crazier things have literally happened.
Truly. She is engulfed in flames in a theater in downtown la yeah after she swings yes swing on chinese lanterns all the way downtown swing on chinese lanterns and string lights all the way from hollywood to downtown la which is what at least like seven miles i can't wait let's just say it was an incredible feat for them to accomplish.

Especially because there are not Chinese lanterns hanging the entire way down there.

Like you could, this is the part where you really had to suspend disbelief, Bo.

Once you get to the end of Charlie's Angels Full Throttle,

if you hadn't suspended disbelief by now, it's time to start.

It's seven miles of string lights and just swinging like Spider-Man.

Yeah. Through the low, through the low, low neighborhoods.
Absolutely. No, no tall buildings and, you know, West Lake or Echo Park, let's just say.
Really a comment on how bad traffic congestion can be here. Really a comment on that and a smart comment on that and a smart, fun comment that we didn't even pick up on until now all these years later but we're talking about it now and this is just i'm gonna be cloying and say this is really highlighting our love for los angeles hashtag stay in la okay listen well you know now they're really trying to there's lots of movements now to try to get more production back here because it's kind of ridiculous i mean that's what newsom should do next is we he should we should try to figure and obviously this is not as like easily said and done all these tax incentives and tax breaks that all these other states get to shoot here's a novel idea how about bringing those to california right like revitalize revive the industry here again i don't know shit but it feels like something where I'm like, you know, a lot saying like, Oh, well, it's easy to shoot in Georgia.
Oh, well, it's easy to shoot in fucking Canada. Like even Pennsylvania saying all these places.
I'm like, what, why can't that be in California? You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I love a Quixote trailer and you only get those in California.
Baby, got to Video Village. Not Video Village.
I got to Basecamp yesterday for my own new project. Can't say yet.
Hopefully can say soon. I walked onto a studio lot.
It was Basecamp on a studio lot. And it felt like hooray for Hollywood.
And I was getting put into hair and makeup. And actually, it's more of a costume than I've done ever.
That's fun. And then the tour went by.
And I was like, I had a little boy moment where I was like, I feel like I made it. I'm in costume as the tour goes by.
And I'm on a studio lot. And it was fun.
And I was like, see, this is the whole Hollywood California thing. It's literally hooray for Hollywood.
The song that plays when you ring my doorbell. That, La Vie en Rose, it's a rotation.
That's amazing. I love that damn song.
It's really a hit. It's really a hit.
They knew they had something when they wrote it. They knew they had something when they wrote it.
Well, that's my Sundance experience for the most part. That's the gist of it.
But wait, one more thing. What's the buzz on Kiss of the Spider Woman? Buzz on Kiss of the Spider Woman is that it is really, really good.
It's very entertaining. I think Vulture just put out a review saying, I'm not being too generous with it, but I'm still seeing it anyway.
I don't fucking care. Bill Condon.
This is thinking about Bill Condon. I'm seeing, I'm seated.
And for JLo, like, come on. I mean, listen, all you have to do is say JLo is going to be dancing in like a Hollywood production, like, and that Bill Condon is doing it.
And then I'm kind of there. Like, we'll see.
I guess the reviews, because I've also been reading the reviews, and it seems like a takeaway is obviously two very different movies. If you don't know the story of Kiss of the Spider Woman, so it's about Argentinian prisoners and one of them is a openly flamboyantly gay window dresser, and the way he sort of deals with his life is by imagining in his mind Hollywood sequences and big dance numbers that feature his favorite star, La Luna.
And that is played by Jennifer Lopez. And so Jennifer Lopez sort of exists as a movie within a movie.
So these two characters who are undergoing torture and, you know, a very, very, very bleak existence in an Argentinian small prison cell can sort of escape somewhere and deal with the trauma of their circumstances.

It's really interesting,

and it's an excellent musical.

But as a movie, it feels like a tough adaptation,

and I think some of the comments are

that it obviously feels like two very different movies,

and one is more enjoyable than the other.

But we'll see.

Yes.

That's just the buzz on the ground.

We literally will see the movie.

I'll see. Yes.
That's just the buzz on the ground. We literally will see the movie.
A hundred percent. That's the scuttlebutt on that.
Huge, huge praise and buzz for Ava Victor's film, Sorry Baby. Wow, nice.
The debut of a new filmmaking voice. I mean, Ava Victor is getting so many accolades and we're so happy for them.
A friend of the show. Friend of the show.
We love Ava. So exciting.
Lucas Hedges is in that movie. Cool.
Natalie Roder-Lateman, friend of the show, also in that film. Is Natalie up at Sundance? I don't think she is.
I would have loved to see her. I don't think she is, unfortunately.

Or maybe she is.

Maybe I just missed her.

I feel like I'm not... Everyone's here for like a full five, six days.

And I'm like, I'm here for two nights and I'm scooting.

But I got to do it right next time.

What are you coming back so quickly for?

Like, what is it that you have to get back for?

I got to work on a shoot tomorrow.

So then at the end of the week, this is where we say we're going to, we're having a Vegas moment. My first Vegas moment since high school.
Wow. Yeah.
Has it changed? We are having a Vegas moment. And let me tell you something.
We are doing it big. We are seeing on Friday night Shania.
On Saturday night, Mariah. Is it Divas Live or what? or what up in this piece I cannot wait or what? my family never did the Vegas shows I mean I guess the kids don't even really go no no no it's not a family thing it's not a family thing the first time I ever went was in college and I remember my dumb basic ass was like like, it's like Disney World for adults, which is literally what it is.
I got to take you on the roller coaster. I don't know about that.
Why? How about you take me shopping? That's the roller coaster. We can go shopping.
We can definitely go shopping. We can definitely go to the buffet.
Oh, yes. We will definitely be going to the shows.
We will be on one. I cannot wait.
And I just... If there's a camera up in here, then the best look is to flick on YouTube.
That's for if you see us. Yeah, if there's a camera up in here, it's going to leave with me when I do.
Yeah, I'm taking that camera. Does she sing Touch My Body? She better.
I haven't looked at the set list.

I'll be shook if she doesn't.

I love Touch My Body.

Oh, it's so good.

Also, do you have...

Jackie Greyer legend in the music video.

Unbelievable legend.

So we're supposed to do...

I think the suggestion is that everyone wear a little glittery something to Mariah

and everyone wear a little leopard something to Shania.

Ooh, I don't think I have the leopard

but I'll get something together.

You bring your zebra coat that you wore on the red carpet too.

I saw your look.

I saw your look.

Thank you, Michael Fisher. Marnie zebra coat.

A Marnie zebra coat.

And what were those pants? Those were purple plaid pants?

They were

blue plaid pants.

Never can tell them apart.

No problem. And some fun

power clashing. Michael Fisher

I'm going to go to the Oscar noms? Oh, should we talk about Vegas? And then we'll talk about Oscar noms in a bit. I mean, we said that's what we're going to be this weekend.
We will have a full report when we get back. Yep.
Let's talk Oscar noms. Okay, so first of all, my big takeaway is that you guys were great.
Oh, thanks. You and Rachel, so much fun together.
I love the alt-comedy joke about how it's just comedy for gays and women. It's true.
This was really fun. You guys did look amazing.
And great pronunciation. Thank you.
Can I say your French was jumping out. Girl, it helps.
It helps to speak a language, to have a flexible tongue. I think I'd be truly adrift.
I thought the Oscar nominations were pretty good. I have my disappointments.
Of course. I'm disappointed not to see Margaret Qualley there.
I really am. Very disappointed not to see Margaret.
I can't say I'm like totally in love with the supporting categories for whatever reasons. No challengers noms.
I think the challengers lack of love sucks. But you know, I've seen almost everything this year.
And I'm not going to go out of my way to say anything negative. But there's some boring stuff that's, like, floated to the top.
Like, for me, it's, like, I don't know. Like, I just, I think it could have been a little bit more interesting had we thrown in, like, yeah, Challengers into Best Picture.
If we had seen, even, like, I haven't seen this movie because it terrifies me, but like, people love Nosferatu. I was like, it's got lots of craft nominations.
Yeah, a lot of technical stuff. But, well, I was just buzzing through because there was about a four hour window where they took your phones away.
I get in and the Academy is like, phones please. I was like,, oh, of course.
So I get in, my flight lands at 1230. I have to be at the academy at 1am.
Oh, damn. And then I- Oh, I didn't know it was like this.
They snatch your phones away. And then I am basically prepping for four hours, doing little social hits, but also about a solid hour of pronunciation training with the wonderful Cliff at the Academy who Louis Rattel shouted out to me over DMs.
He was like, that is the Oscar Oracle. That is, he is the Oscar Oracle.
And so they tell you who the nominees are going to be beforehand. Yeah.
So I get a big binder that has all the nominees. Oh, wow.
And so you got to be a little gagged beforehand.

I was gagged beforehand, flipping through, being like,

oh my god, Sebastian.

So fun. Oh my god, wait.

So I've now seen The Apprentice.

Those nominations

are really well deserved. Jeremy, congrats

to Jeremy and Sebastian. And I understand people are

squeamish about watching the movie The Apprentice

because of the trump of it all, but when you do get around to it, those performances are excellent. And I enjoyed the movie.
I really did. I guess this is my thing is it's like there's a lot of like interesting, bold movies out there.
And I want to say, I think I just got used to the idea that something like The Substance could be nominated for a Best Picture so that when it was, I'm not giving it its flowers right now. It's amazing.
So many things are nominated and up there for awards that would not normally be, and I think it's great. Lots of international stuff is nominated.
I'm just gonna say it. I'm not crazy about a complete unknown.
In fact, to say I'm not crazy about it is an understatement. I find it to be a Wikipedia to a karaoke track.
That's the read I'll give on for this. I mean, especially because he did Walk the Line, which was so good.
I just feel like it was a low impact version of that same movie. I think it's really hard to dramatize and bring emotion to the story of someone who was by definition unknowable and very removed.
And I did not find it that compelling of a story because I actually think that not every cultural figure has a compelling story. If anyone injected actual stakes into that film, it was.
I'm going to say, weirdly, Norbert Leo Butz. Yeah, I mean, yeah.
He was the character where I'm like, oh, oh, okay, this is why we should care, question mark? It had its moments, you know what I mean? Like I said, I thought the ensemble was great, I thought the casting was excellent, it's just it didn't add up to an altogether very compelling story for me. And I thought the performances in terms of the music were good.
You know, it's nothing against it. It's just I look at the Oscar nominations and see that it did so well.
And I'm like, no, really? But anyway, that's just how I feel. I'm not crazy about that movie.
I wasn't crazy about Conclave but again I did see that on election day

you watched it on election day

I went into Conclave

being like this is probably not going to be for me

really really enjoyed it

yeah I mean many many people did

and there's so many movies up there

that I'm like I really love

it's just I don't know

it's just some of them

I just don't care that much. Catch the new Hulu original comedy, Mid-Century Modern from the creators of Will and Grace, executive producer Ryan Murphy and director James Burroughs.

There's a whole TikTok about how the scansion on Hello, very nice to meet you. I'd like to know about sex change operation.
Like how fucking crazy. Why would the emphasis be on those specific syllables? There's no, like, you could just go skip the very, hello, nice to meet you.
Hello, very nice. As opposed to hello, very nice to meet.
It's like, so it's like, I don't totally buy into the idea that like, it's meant to be like caustic and it's meant to sound like a melodic or whatever. I'm like, no, like stand in the musical sort of like zone, shall we say, and just like deliver.
First of all, not only... What did Becca say? Becca Ramos.
If Emilia Perez has no haters, I'm dead. Well, there you go.
First of all, you know who completely snubbed that movie? Glad. Right, well.
There you go right there. So first of all, I know there's a lot of discourse about this movie from the trans community, from the Mexican community.
I'm not going to weigh in on any of that. What I'm going to say is this movie is, at the same time, it's so chaotic and it is also so boring.
Like it's both.

It's kind of crazy,

right? Because

it just comes in and sweeps these

nominations. And now

I have to ask why.

Come on.

Like Becca

says 2025's Green Book, but

it's not like that though because

I guess it sort of is because it's like a queer movie that people feel like they can get behind in the Academy, but it feels different to me. It's already the villain, though, of the season and the campaign, and so I feel like I don't know if it can go the distance, in the words of Lisa Barlow, but...
Yeah, I don't know how I feel about it being the villain, either. It's just like, it's not good enough to be the frontrunner in my eyes, and it's also not like...
I'm also uncomfortable with the amount of hatred that it's garnering, because then you look at some corners of the internet, and it's like people... It's people like, you know, I won't even say the names of some of these YouTubers I've watched, but it's just like, you know, they play the clip of that sex change operation thing, and then it cuts back to them, and they're hating it.
It's like Becca's saying right now, hating it for all the wrong reasons. And like, you know, that feels really uncomfortable, but then when you put that clip out there as a representation of the movie, how exactly do you think it's going to be received? I don't know.
This is a really bizarre cultural moment, this movie.

Because it's like,

I don't know what it is. I think they decided

really early on.

I think it premiered at Cannes.

And they decided really early on, this was

the prestige big movie of the

year. And also it's Netflix and everything.

So it all kind of packaged

up to be this big Oscar movie.

And then everyone saw it and everyone has these crazy polarizing responses to it for good reason. And again, this has nothing to say about the performances.
The performances are great. And it's well done and I think Zoe Saldana will win the Oscar for it and she's stunning.
But this movie it's like, what exactly are we watching? It doesn't have to be all these genres. Sometimes that's just confusing.
I find the story to be compelling. It's compelling, but it also doesn't quite make sense either.
And like the first act stuff, it's like, well, why is she the one who has to like figure out logistically all these things? Right. Anyway, that's, is that our, our bounce on the, in the words of Seth Meyers,

our bounce?

That's,

that might be our bounce.

I just thought there was,

there were so many great movies this year

and then some of them,

the ones that I was like,

oh yeah,

those are the givens in the Oscar race.

You know,

you get around to watching them

and like,

you're like,

okay,

sure.

I guess,

I guess we've decided

this is the representation of film this year.

Right.

Well,

before we move on,

I don't think so,

can we just talk about the announcement that just came year. Right.
Well, before we move on, I don't think so, can we just talk about

the announcement that just came out

that we are officially

coming out with

The Rules of Culture Volume 1.

Thank you for reminding me.

Oh my God.

Yes.

Your girls are authors.

Future authors.

Bonyang and I will be co-authoring

The Rules of Culture Volume 1

that is being announced today. We're doing it under Andy Cohen's imprint.
Thank you, King. Thank you, Father.
At 2026, we're eyeing publication for 2026, but we are excited to announce that now, and we are excited to get to work on it. And it's like, it's going to be different than you may think.
I think that a lot of people have been reaching out being like, where's the coffee table book with the rules of culture? Heard your suggestion there. We're going to do something a little bit different, a little bit more fun for us.
We're putting our foot into this book. Yes.
Oh, interesting. In a sexual way? No, I don't think of putting your foot into it as necessarily a sexual thing I just mean really put your foot in that like you know what I mean like isn't that an expression yes but also it could be a kink I think let's say it's both yes we will be putting our foot into it in a writerly and kinky sense.
Yes. And we're so excited.
And thank you to everyone at Crown Publishing Group, agents and all those wonderful people who make dreams come true. Oh, this is a dream come true.
Penguin Random House. We're so excited to work with y'all.
And Andy Cohen himself. Of course.
This will be a true blast to do and it's coming next year. What else? Is it time for I don't think so, honey? I think it's time.
Yeah. This is a scant episode, you guys, because it is early in the morning.
This is one of those weeks where this was the only time we could do this and it is 7 a.m. for me, 8 a.m.
for Bowen in mountain time. But we love you so much.
This was really the mountain episode. Last week was the laughing episode.

All right, I have something that I could do for I Don't Think So Honey. It's something that I'm like noticing more and more and I can't wrap my head around it.
Oh, okay. This is Matt Rogers' I don't think so.
And his time starts now. I don't think so, honey.
You working out with all your jewelry on. Like, I'll be at Barry's boot camp and literally on the treadmill next to me will be a woman in full earrings, bangles, and more.
Literally yesterday, I was at the Hollywood location and I'm putting some of you on blast if you'd take class with me. A woman's earrings full in.
The guy next to me watches bracelets and a necklace. The guy on the other side of me, a necklace.
And I'm like, guys, what if something falls off? This becomes a projectile. And this is another installment in becoming a projectile culture.
This is why you always wear seatbelts. I don't care if you think you're going to be safe.
If there's an accident, you become a projectile. If there's an accident at Barry's, I don't think so, honey.
When your accoutrement starts flying everywhere and your earring mama on tread sticks becomes a projectile, take the earrings off, put them in the lockers they provide for you. I don't like jewelry and all these things, watches flying around.
I don't think so, honey, during the workout. Not during group fitness.
I don't think so, honey. That's one minute.
That is really, I would say, slightly dangerous. First of all, why would you want to wear all that stuff while you're dealing with weights and materials and positions where you have to like engage your body in certain ways.

Okay, let's say you're not at Barry's. You're at the gym.
You're with some machinery and some hardware. Like that's just a disaster zone.
Like you're something's going to get snagged and caught. No, things get caught on stuff.
And that's what I'm saying. And then the guy next to me

Did that thing where

He tried to

You know at the end of a sprint at Barry's, like what people will try to jump to the sides instead of like running it down. Like, like, okay, okay.
We're, we're running. I do that every now and then.
I have to say that bugs me because I'm like, you're going to hurt yourself. No, I know, but I think that

you jumping to

the sides of the treadmill

in order to relieve yourself

of this strenuous activity,

I feel like that is how people are going to hurt

themselves. It's not a

natural movement, and

it just makes me nervous next to you.

I'm not yelling at you, Beau.

I'm just saying I don't want you to hurt yourself. Thank you.
I never said that. I never knew you were this type of girl.
Congratulations on 150 classes, by the way. Thank you.
Huge feat. And I started working with a trainer.
Amazing. Fans of the Ride podcast may know JR.
I actually asked him. I asked him yesterday.
I was like, so does Benny talk about you on the Ride Podcast? Because he trains Benny Drama. And he goes, yes, Benny and Mary Beth.
And I was like, okay, wow. So this is someone I feel safe.
Hard-bodied. I'm actually seeing him in two hours.
I feel safe mentioning him on the pod. But now you have to ask nowadays, the pod is so huge.
You never know who's going to be uncomfortable by putting me thrust into the limelight of Lost College. One of the funniest things about watching the nominations live, because I did, I woke up early as I want to do, I guess lately, so I could watch you do the nominations live.
And it's like, I watched it on YouTube. Yes, I watched it live.
I watched the whole thing live. I woke up at 5.27 a.m.,

put that laptop on my chest

and opened it for you

and Rachel sent it,

pronouncing French and looking hot.

And one thing I'll say is

the entire YouTube chat

was people from Brazil

going crazy for Fernando Torres

and I'm still here. I think she could actually win.
Now that she's nominated, I do think Demi is still a frontrunner, but I think that Fernando Torres' performance in that is so stunning that if people actually watch all of them, it might be hard not to vote for her. But obviously we're still team Demi here.
And team Cynthia. And team team Cynthia I do think it is a very fun stocked best actress race love best actress this year it ended up being such a competitive year and to say nothing of fucking Mikey Madison who's absolutely amazing and some people I think are rightfully feeling the Nicole Kidman snub.
100%. That's a major snub.

Hugely Oscar-worthy performance.

I loved Baby Girl.

Nicole Kidman in Baby Girl,

it's wild that she keeps getting better,

but she is getting better.

I mean, to say nothing of Marianne Jean-Baptiste,

who was also amazing in Hard Truth,

which is a tough movie,

but an unbelievable performance.

I loved Pam in Last Showgirl.

There was so much going on this year in Best Actress. So, kudos to those nominated.
Kudos. Oh, I guess I haven't technically done my I Don't Think So, honey.
You have not technically done it. So, this is your technical I Don't Think So, honey.
Are you ready to sort of shred? Yeah, yeah. Yes.
Oh, speaking of shred. Oh, thank you for setting me up like that.
For teeing me up like that. Go.
This is the one Yang's I don't think so, honey. His time starts now.
I don't think so, honey. Cross-country skiing.
I'm seeing some of you do this out here in Park City, Utah, as I'm driving into town. Why? What's the point? I'm sure I'm going to get lectured.
There's probably so many wonderful reasons to do it. And the times that I've done it, I see no value.
I see no enjoyment out of it. I see

jelly sore legs the next day or even the same day, even day of. If you're going down the slopes, I know there's risk of danger.
I know it's scary, but at least you feel exhilarated. You go, wow, I went down a whole ass mountain in 20 minutes.
That's pretty cool. Now I'm going to eat a fat ass burger or a big pizza at the lodge to reward myself.

There's none of that built into cross country skiing. You're in a field, you pass by a horse who's like 500 feet away.
It doesn't really give the give. And I don't really, and I'm seeing people still do it.
I thought we left that in the 70s, the 80s or whatever, the 90s. Why are we doing it in the year of our Lord 2025? And that's one minute.
I'm so sorry to hear this. Thank you.
It's hard for me. Yeah, I mean, and you are, so you really want to go to Aspen Ski Week? I do.
I really do. Okay, so we'll go and you can do your thing and I guess I'll be that girl in the house that's like drinking.
I would love for you to don't say it. Learn.
I mean, I would do some greens with you and I think you would have a good time. I've never talked to someone who had gone skiing that didn't have a torn ACL.
I'm sorry. What about me? What about you? No.
What about you for once? Oh, yeah. Ever thought about that? You have a torn ACL you don't even know.
Sure. I bet.
Oh, my God. I'm just saying I would get hurt.
Fine, fine, fine. It would be your whole personality.
It would be. Oh, my God.
Girl with a torn ACL was such a character in high school. You know what I mean? I remember I went to high school with this girl, Sam B***, and it felt like she was on crutches for two years.
Of course. It was so debilitating.
It's not to say that she didn't need the crutches. It's just, it fucks you up.
It's so funny that this person in my life

has probably gone on to,

has probably,

has definitely gone on to live like a full life.

Who knows where she is.

All she has kids, a career.

You know what I mean?

But she will always be that girl

in crutches on high school to me.

And understand that if you are in high school

and you're listening to this

and you're on crutches,

look around, sweetie.

To everyone the rest of their life,

you will be the girl who was on crutches in high school. Period.
If you're in high school... Lean in or die.

We end every episode with a song. But man, I feel like a woman.
I'm going out tonight. I'm feeling all right.
I'm going to let it all hang out. Can I say one thing? There's a group thread of a lot of people that are going to Shania and Mariah.
And there was some like really shitty stuff being said in the Shania group chat. We're not going to be disrespecting Shania before we even get in there.
And I can't wait to get there and look around at these gay people and have them be like, wow, I didn't realize that she had so many songs. I'd be like, no, you know what? You just didn't open your goddamn eyes.
Can I just say, making fun of a Canadian... Eddies.
Making fun of a Canadian is so eye-roll. Don't do that.
So passe. So passe composé.
Well, bye. Bye.
