We are sponsored by the new movie from Searchlight Pictures, The Roses.

Perfect couple Ivy, Olivia Coleman, and Theo Rose, Benedict Cumberbatch, have it all.

Successful careers, a loving marriage, and great kids.

But when Theo's career comes crashing down, just as Ivy's fame starts to skyrocket, a tinderbox of fierce competition and growing resentment ignites, threatening to destroy everything they've built if they don't destroy each other first.

All's fair when love is war.

For anyone who's ever been in a relationship, The Roses is a crowd-pleasing comedy.

Starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Olivia Coleman, Andy Sandberg, Allison Janney, Shuti Gatwa, and Kate McKinnon.

From the director of Meet the Parents and writer of Poor Things.

Directed by Jay Roach and screenplay by Tony McNamara.

This movie looks absolutely hilarious.

I love Olivia Coleman so much.

I'll see anything she's in, and this one looks like a home run.

Hi everyone, welcome back.

This is part two of a two-part recap.

If you're wondering where part one was, well go check in the feed and be sure to subscribe so that way you always get your episodes.

But enough of that, let's get right back into the episode.

So Anywho,

Stephen Jr.

is mad because he didn't make an iCal reminder for himself and now we can blame everyone.

So now he's going to pull Jesse up from the city house to go help with this meet.

So he, so Jesse has to go driving out there to the farm, and you know, and this Jesse's all like, oh man, Galena needs to figure this shit out because I'm down in the city.

So, they're gonna go and they're gonna deal with this meat situation.

And then, Jesse's like, This is the exact reason why I hate coming down here to the city because if there's a problem, of course, there's always problems on the farm.

I'm an hour and a half away, and now I got to have all my crap, head north, and figure out what the hell is going on.

Here's an idea: This is a crazy idea.

How about you say no, and then Stephen has to call someone else?

Maybe he's called by your lady.

This poor girl, this poor girl.

Because then he's like,

Hey, this poor city girl.

Hey, Ali, I'm going to have to head to the farm.

Like right now, yeah, I want to.

And then she goes, I wanted to have this thing together, but now you're leaving.

Go on, girl.

Give us nothing.

She had even come up with a thing.

I wanted to have this

thing

together.

What?

Just say edible arrangement.

Say Starbucks.

Just come up with something.

Find the brain planning.

Use it.

Wedding planning, brunch.

And he goes, if it wasn't something this important, I wouldn't be leaving.

The brisket delivery.

I mean, listen.

Literally get another person to haul the like.

Yeah, the body.

Steven needs another body.

Where's Cole?

Where's Cala?

Well, I get Cala.

Get someone.

I would love to see Cala holding.

Tessa.

Giant things of brisket.

See, at least Tessa would give us a good running commentary while she's doing it.

This is heavier than the time I lifted my ex-boyfriend out of a hot jacuzzi in Milwaukee.

Now, I got to say something here about this here meat.

This meat is heavy, and if we had some Coca-Cola beans, it wouldn't be nearly as heavy.

So, yeah, I don't know why we're doing all this.

It's much, this is way too demanding for me.

Hey, did you see that flyer the other day?

It was good fonts, wasn't it?

Such?

Do you think it's going to be a Mick B or a McShee?

I don't know.

Nicole came in.

That's going to say, it's going to be there.

She's supposed to say some nice kind words.

So we're looking forward to it.

Why are we holding all this brisket?

We can just be doing the flyer business.

I've really been getting into different fonts.

Comic Sam's is my favorite.

I have an internship with something called Canva.

I don't know what it's about, but they hired me, so I'm going to go up into there.

She's like, slowly going to work her way up the tech ladder.

That means she looks in the camera.

Use my code,

Kate.

What's her name?

Tessa.

Tesa 20.

Tessa 20 for 20% off your Canva discounts.

So they get to the first of all, you know what really stressed me out?

What?

This really...

Holding for me with their hands?

No,

that was stressful because it was very cold and they wish they had gloves.

And I'm like, again, another failure on Steven's part for preparation.

The way that they had...

The way they struggled to open the door to their own meat locker.

One, two, three.

One, two, three.

One, two, three.

What is wrong with this door?

Why?

This is worse than the summer house door.

Why do they close the door like that?

This is...

God, the door should not be that hard to open.

I mean, what if you leave your keys in there?

I thought they were going to find Masha's dead body in there at that point.

I was like, I wouldn't put a Pascalina.

I don't know where the clubs came from.

I don't know what happened.

So have to bring all this brisket down to the barbecue spot.

They're already 90 minutes late because I guess he waited for Steven to get there like a dumb-dumb.

Why'd you start loading it up?

Why are you waiting for Steven to get a head start?

Like, come on, like, do the work.

Yeah, and then he, and then Steven Jr.

is like, it's our first delivery to Arthur Bryant's.

And then you get to the flashback.

uh with the guy working there yeah we try to run it pretty thin which is important that you communicate if something's gonna be late or you can't hit an order It's like,

thank you for spelling out this storyline.

Exactly.

And of course, he doesn't communicate with him.

And I misspoke.

I said they was waiting for Jesse, not waiting for Stephen.

Oh, yes.

So, um, so they're, they're loading up all this brisket.

Okay, and Stephen's like, I'm focused on making this deal, bro.

I mean, the new owner has a bunch of different businesses and restaurants.

So, this deal is so much bigger than it already is with the brisket.

And like, it has a potential to be so much bigger.

I am angry.

The producer said I should be angry.

I am angry.

So, I'm hoping this relationship with Arthur Bryan's goes smoothly.

No issues.

I'm going to go dark.

I'm going to go dark if this doesn't go through.

So they arrive and the guy's like unhappy.

He's like, well, I know this is the first go-around and everything like that, but we really need it here to 6 and not 8.30.

So we're going to get brisket on this morning ride at 6, which means we could probably get it off somewhere between 4.30 and 5.

I'm like, is this an SAT question?

How fast if a brisket's going at 90 miles per hour?

If the brisket goes at 90 miles an hour, what kind of sauce do you put on top of it?

How fast does it take Ted Lasso to fly over from London to eat our brisket sauce?

If Ted Lasso eats one of our sandwiches at 7 p.m., what time is he taking to sit?

The correct answer is once per hour on the hour because you can eat a lot of his biscuits.

It runs right through him.

Runs right through.

Brisket.

So

anyway, so the guy's like, he basically shames them.

He's like, yeah, so now we're going to run out of beef at 5.30.

So that's your fault.

Sorry, sir.

So now Stephen's like really upset, really upset about all this.

And Jesse's like, well, why is it my problem?

I mean, if he's in charge, if the deal fell through, it's his fault.

Exactly.

Sorry, if you're in charge, you still shouldn't be on top of this.

If this deal is so important, why are you just, you know,

why are you not on top of it?

Why are you not reading your, checking the times and when things are

having much shower sex instead of doing your job?

Yeah, I'm not really even really sure what the issues with Galena.

Is it that Galena was supposed to schedule someone to be there to break the meat down and she never did, so they have to do at the last minute?

Yeah, though it is unclear if she had been working, would she be the one trying to open up the freezer door?

Is she making the calls?

Also,

Is this really how it's done?

If someone asks for like 4,000 pounds of brisket, is it really, does it really come down to one guy throwing brisket in the back of a truck and another guy with like a calculator saying, okay, that was 20 pounds.

Okay, next, ready for the next one?

Oh, yeah, that stresses me out.

The manual addition of the poundage, that stresses me out.

We don't have like barcodes that we can scan that, like, like, God forbid we write something down.

I was like, what?

Carry the four.

That's a one thousand, one hundred and one wrong, one typo or something.

Sorry, I gotta start over.

Take it all out of here.

My like type A

fucking

very like grade focused student was not okay with the way that they were adding up those pounds.

No, they should have the everything should have been scanned.

Like the weight was already

in a database somewhere.

Scan it and like a checkout or something like that.

Him sitting there with that calculator.

I literally was like, I don't know if I could watch this show anymore just based off the stress of this scene.

Yeah, I'm curious if uh we're supposed to expect that this is going to ruin the brisket deal or are we going to be seeing a recurring theme of this that ted lasted barbecue loving restaurant

i think they're going to have a redemption arc and it'll be okay so stephen jr's like now they're like they're leaving steven jr still mad he's he's steaming mad and he's like two and a half hours late i mean two and a half hours late fucking shit show that i was gonna go to my crossfit today and now i can't okay i don't know what my wad would have been and guess what galena's just gone she went dark, by the way.

I don't know if you heard, she went dark, and there's been no, like, no one knowing what to do.

Nothing could have happened.

Whenever she's good, she's a rock star, but whenever she's worried about dad and masha, okay, it's like you can't even break her out of the singular focus on dad.

You know what I'm saying?

You're Steven

Jesse.

I keep calling myself Steven, but I'm Stephen.

You're Jesse.

You know what I'm saying?

I'm confused.

I'm mad.

I'm mad.

I'm going dark.

And then it flashes to Galena having the saddest.

I'm preparing a full romantic evening with you.

I'm going to drip chocolate sauce all over your penis.

and then I'm going to put a cherry on your nipples.

It's like she's so in love with this man, we see the saddest ways that she's like, and I am going to be so happy as long as I'm with you.

They break up four seconds later, and he, he, all, every flashback where she's sweet talking to him, he looks terrified.

Stevens, disinterested.

This man, this man's a piece of shit.

So, um, now uh, Cole is arriving to help with baby, baby gender reveal prep, and we have a song from our country, Trixie Monocle, and this is the song to play for the gender reveal, which goes, They'll be burning down the barn.

They'll be letting it all hang out.

Trading cowboys on the dance floor while the band is playing loud.

Another banger song.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I was like, was that cut from sinners?

Did they repurpose it here?

Because let me tell you something.

There was some real soul in that song.

Real beautiful.

Real beautiful.

Maybe, actually.

I mean, it does lyrically match the

plot of song.

It does, actually.

It does, actually.

Yeah.

So, um, uh,

so they're they're setting things up and everything.

And oh, ooh, ooh, I almost forgot about this part.

They're setting up, and um, Casey turns to Jesse and goes, Guess what these are?

And he goes, fruit pizzas, no way.

And then they cut to

a round piece of dough with some sort of creamy sauce underneath

chopped berries.

I shudder to think what is going on this fruit pizza.

This Pinterest travesty that descended upon Bravo in this moment, I will never forgive it.

Now,

I really hate berries.

I've come a long way.

I can eat berries now.

For a while, I couldn't.

So I really don't like strawberries or blueberries or raspberries.

I didn't know that about about you.

Yeah, it's a weird thing.

But I'm like doing, I'm like, you know, it's not official exposure therapy, but I'm trying to be, I'm trying to lean into a concept called maturity and realizing that you can eat a strawberry and it won't kill you and you can be an adult and just eat it and it's fine.

But that being said, this fruit pizza is such a travesty.

I just, I couldn't, I could not.

It's so embarrassing to like see a family secret recipe be revealed on a national network television show and for it to be like the nastiest.

Like, can you imagine like telling someone that your childhood favorite treat was something that was absolutely disgusting and then to put it on a tv show i'm sure i'm sure twitter and reddit are all dragging this fruit pizza unless people actually like it the other way around i bet people are like oh my god it's actually secretly really good i think like there's inherently nothing wrong with like berries some sort of like creamy sauce

like like there's inherently nothing wrong with it but it's the branding that really makes me so mad the fruit yeah pizza.

I've just, I cannot get busted.

It's almost like Mama's beer cheese.

I think, like, I at first heard that, and I was like, there's no chance anybody would want to partake in the, but now I'm like, I would, I would swim in some beer cheese if I had the chance.

I love, I actually love beer or cheese, but I would say, not to, not to know, not to not, yes, and you, but I do love beer cheese.

But I will, uh, I will say, I think there's something about like calling it fruit pizza.

There's like a wink in it.

Like, isn't that funny?

It's like fruit arranged on bread like yeah pizza there's something that i feel like they think it's so much more clever than it is maybe that's what it is it's like this is stupid and i don't like you for it you know yeah and then of course cala walks in going oh cute and it's just like oh that's how you know that's how you know because cala thinks it's cute And she's going to tell her friends in Dallas and her friends will be like, that's nice, bitch, but you said you were going to be moving here and now you're up there eating fruit pizzas.

Yeah.

And then after Cala walks in, my favorite thing is how the music all of a sudden becomes like scary.

It's like sinner's soundtrack.

It's like all of a sudden they're all so devastated.

She's there.

She's like, can I come in?

Let me in, please.

Why are you asking me to come in?

You never asked to come in.

Well, what do you mean?

I just want to know if I can come in now.

Stop being silly.

Let me in.

Let me have some of that fruit pizza, huh?

Never did I thought we'd do a sinner's vampire callback with Cala and the fruit pizza.

It's actually so rude to the legacy of that film that we are now adapting it to Cala and the fruit pizza.

The McB Dynasty.

It's like literally the exact, it is truly like the exact opposite of what that movie is all about.

You know what Sinners reminds me of?

The second season of the show that was not a first season was not a problem, the second season is.

It's called the McBee.

Could you imagine the Finnish dynasty?

Could you imagine watching the Sinners and be like, oh, this really reminds me of McBe Dynasty and be like, get out of this theater, right?

Yes, truly.

So, um, they're there.

So, she's there.

Everyone's like, oh my god, she's back.

I thought she moved to Dallas.

I thought she wasn't here.

And then Casey is, Casey's really obnoxious.

She's like, Stephen didn't tell any of us that she was coming, so it's confusing to see her here.

I mean, even though Callie and I did make up, I'm going to be raising a McB.

So, no matter what happens, I can't side with Calla.

I'm in McBee, and I'm going to have to stay, have my side with them from now on.

I'm like, Are you in Oklahoma?

Is this like the cowman, the cowman and the farmer can't be friends or something like that like what is this like what is this ridiculous like i i'm raising a mcb i gotta always take the mcb side i can't think for myself anymore yeah this is the most boring west side story it's like she well i my theory is that the men

probably cole and stephen are so anti the women having any sort of friendship that they do anything that they can to tell to tell casey to hate on cowboy

a hundred percent it is a divide and conquer situation which is why the men ruled a roost on this show and why Casey always has dead eyes when she talks because she's just picturing what the men have told her before the cameras are rolling either that or she just drank a lot of body armor or the potassium from the body armor is taking her have another panic attack Jesus

She can't handle it like the way a city girl can, like Allie.

So Allie comes in in her stilettos and her mink stole because she's a city girl.

And

I got this at the big store in the city.

It's called Marshalls.

And she's like, well, I don't know if she's even invited, but at this point, it's hard to keep up.

Are they together?

Are they not together?

It changes every day.

Well, settle down, Miss Lady with two houses.

We don't know where you are.

You know, I'm sure you wouldn't like it if Kyla was like, I don't know where the house she's at any day because it changes every single day.

So settle down.

This is an example of a hot hot take that I'm taking that I really don't care about.

I'm like, see, I just started up again.

I'm like,

how could she say that about Cala?

How could she?

No, I co-sign it, though.

I mean, like,

at least, at least Allie

is sort of a bitch.

She's still boring, but

my hot take is that Allie is, I think if she, if they get another season, we'll see the bitchery of Allie

start to grow.

Allie is also the one I could see myself getting along best with.

Not just because she's a city girl, as am I, but there's something about her.

I think it is that undercurrent of bitchiness that I actually connect with very well.

Yeah, I think so.

It's like one of my, one of my fatal flaws is that I am drawn to sometimes these

people like Allie or like, you know, like one of the things I really have a hard time admitting is that like I could see myself being friends with Janet on the valley.

And

yeah.

That's tough.

And that's tough.

Because I'm like sort of like drawn to like that sort of behavior sometimes.

And it's like a really bad, it's a really bad part of me.

But it's less about you and more about like those people are also going to be drawn to you because you are like a grounded kind soul.

Like

my husband, Matt, sometimes

would find himself with like girly friends who

are a little more chaotic because he is so grounded.

And so I think that that's maybe you just tend to.

I think what it is, is it's not so much that I don't feel like I, I, I, I actually like anyone who's chaotic, I like, don't deal with them because I don't like chaos.

But what I do like is like a quiet keykey moment with like gossiping.

And like, that's going to be Janet and Allie.

Oh, yeah.

But the thing is,

because they, they're, they're probably really good with like, like a gossipy moment, but then they get, they don't have, they're really bad with boundaries.

They don't really like time and place.

And then they, they are, then they wind up being terrible people, you know?

Right.

It's hard.

Life is hard.

Um,

so uh, they're just like setting up this gender reveal and everything.

I like this detail that our note-taker included.

Said, Calla moves the table with an antler on it.

Right after the balloon pops scares Cala.

She was the most basic thing.

I got a balloon.

Sorry, but that's really scared me.

And we hear more of that scary music.

Why are you scared?

Let me move this table with an antler just to just

dissolve the tension here?

Guys,

it's official.

The antler's in a different location now.

And they're still silent.

Why did you ask to be let in this room?

She's like a terrible vampire.

She's like not even killing anyone yet.

She's like moving antlers around.

She's like, I'm sorry.

I just have like, before I like unleash my evilness on all of you guys, I just want the decor to look right.

She doesn't want to suck blood.

She just wants to go back in the shower with Steven.

Yeah,

she's really failing at this.

It's also daytime, I'd like to point out she would be a vampire to compare daytime.

That's true.

I forgot the rules, you guys.

I'm so fucking annoying.

Actually, I don't know if you hear about it.

Like people talk a lot about vampire facials, but actually for vampires, a really good facial is actually a sun facial.

So what you do is expose yourself to the sun a little bit and it peels off the first layer of skin.

And you, I mean, I know that we don't really age, but if we want to still look younger, It's still a good way to do it.

The vampires do things a little differently in Dallas because i actually uh i'm from the bigger city yeah have you ever seen a vampire do the splits yeah we can do them really well it's time for a commercial it's time for a crappin's commercial

why drop a fortune on basics when you don't have to quince has the good stuff high quality fabrics classic fits and lightweight layers for warm weather all at prices that make sense Quince has closet staples you'll want to reach for over and over, like cozy cashmere, cotton sweaters from just 50 bucks, and comfortable lightweight pants that somehow work for both weekend hangs and dressed-up dinners.

And Quince only works with factories that use safe, ethical, and responsible manufacturing practices and premium fabrics and finishes.

We've been talking about Quince for a long time.

We both love it.

I love online shopping, and Quince is the most fashionable destination I use for sure.

I've got a beautiful suede jacket that I got from Quince.

I get compliments on it every single time I wear it.

So they're still all marveling that they can't believe that Cal is at the gender reveal.

Who would believe?

Oh, because Christy shows up.

Christy, formerly known as Roxanne on this podcast, now we have her name, Christy.

Christy.

She shows up.

I like Christy's version of coldness because she's really cold to Cala.

She's like, hey.

Oh, I think Christy is the saving grace of the show.

I think that she's the only person with emotional intelligence, and that it's clear why all of her sons have such mommy issues is because they basically have like an absent father who manipulates them, puts them through warfare, like to hate each other.

And then Christy actually has like her head on her shoulders.

I'm, I'm Team Christie.

Yeah.

I love that she started up a new company and is like killing it with the company.

Like, yeah, and then she's driving what a Lamborghini, they say, or Ferrari or something.

I'm like, that's

great.

And she's probably in Kansas City.

So I kind of was obsessed with like a

Kansas City mogul.

I know.

I love that for her.

I love a strong, powerful woman.

Me too.

And I like her perky coldness towards Calais.

She goes, hey.

And like, that's it.

And it's just like, there's something in that like little smile.

Like, I'm not going to talk to you for the rest of the party, but I am going to acknowledge your presence.

I see you move my antler and I'm going to ask you to move the antler back, please.

I had placed that table with the antler in a specific place.

It's not yours to touch.

You're not part of this family.

You shouldn't even be here.

Okay.

That was all said in that smile.

I was going to say, there is don't get between a southern woman and a bit of a passive aggressive comma through a smile.

It is the most devastating feeling to be on the other side of that.

Say you move the antler, I see.

Why am I so scared?

So

Stephen explains that Cal's just going to be here for a little bit longer until she gets her apartment, you know.

And they're all like, really?

I mean, aren't there a lot of apartments in Dallas?

Okay.

I love Casey's parents who arrive because they announce themselves.

Literally, the grandma walks in, grandma's here.

I was like, okay,

she is ready.

That reminded me, my in-laws are in Georgia, and that reminded me of like the grandparents in Georgia whom I love.

I think there's there, I

make fun of the South and Missouri as I'm legally allowed to do, but I do love a Southern grandparent.

There's nothing like them.

Did you watch Beverly Hills this past season?

I did.

Sudden Strike's mother from Augusta.

Well, that is a different.

She scares me.

She scares me.

She was wonderful.

She was just the best.

Like,

we need Vera on every single season.

And I need Vera now to put her attention on Kyle and just scare the shit out of Kyle.

I agree.

But I think also if we're comparing McBee Dynasty to Beverly Hills, the reason why this show is so bad is because every single person is acting.

Grandma's not.

I think she announces grandma's here every time she enters any room.

That was authentic.

Yeah, that was authentic, but everything else is so acting.

Whereas Sutton's mom on Beverly Hills, she did not care a camera was there.

No,

that was authentic disappointment and disdain.

It was that.

You could feel it.

So Cole announces to everyone, hey, we're going to go back out.

We're going to watch this helicopter fly over.

So whatever color comes out, that's the color of the kid.

So they're like, color of the kid.

sorry sorry sorry sorry that's uh the font of the flyer sorry sorry he's the gander okay the gander the the color of the gander okay um

so uh so they're there everyone's hoping that um that's that cole winds up with a girl uh because they know that he's like a dick and he hates women hates women and he hates women so this will be the ultimate trolling as he winds up with a girl i'm like well that's great for that girl love to hear that so uh the helicopter comes flying over and then it hovers and then there's, they just like spray out all sorts of pink smoke.

And I was like, wow, they're having a gay boy.

Congratulations.

You're having a boy who loves wicked.

I'm surprised with the NBCU, I'm surprised it wasn't green and pink coming out.

And Cynthia Revo is like, she's like, it's me.

Congratulations.

Welcome to the Wicked Experience brought to you by McBee Dynasty.

Listen, we can only be so lucky to have a wicked.

I mean, when the wicked, when the new wicked movie comes out and that press tour starts up again, we will be seeing a McBee Dynasty crossover.

I'm not sure the press tour has ever ended because they are putting Cynthia Rivo everywhere.

I mean, everything is wicked.

It's still everything wicked.

I just heard that there'd be a wicked something another at the end of the month.

She's like, she has like all over poker face.

She's doing Jesus Christ superstar in a few weeks.

I need to see that.

Can I tell you that I auditioned for one of the wicked commercials where they're at Target?

It was a Target commercial.

Oh, yeah,

uh-huh.

And I

did not book, but they didn't say what it was for, except we had to sing.

But like saying different things.

So

maybe for Wicked.

That's okay, because you got to be in a different commercial with you were walking in a door, right?

Or, well, who was it?

It was a celebrity who was in that commercial.

Issa Ray.

Issa Ray.

Did she actually film with you guys or was it like was it like composited, like digitally?

So, this was yeah, so it was a TurboTax commercial for the Super Bowl commercial.

Yeah, and I ended up being in about what half of a second of the final cut.

But she had a body double there for every single shot, except for when we actually rolled, she did show up and looked stunning

and collected her paycheck.

But yeah, she had like a two or three-day shoot for a TurboTax commercial for the Super Bowl.

But hey, Turbo Tax,

more like slow boat tax, two two to three days.

I mean, come on now.

I like to use that in your show by the way.

And I will feel free.

I'm going to get a full segment on my Turbo Tax.

Do a whole bit.

I would love to be in it.

I would love to have a bit pardoning commercial.

Like, that would be my dream.

You know, I have a SAG card.

I've had a SAG card for 20 years because I appeared on something once.

I appeared on a panel for the Fox Rea, for the Fox Reality.

Fox used to have a reality TV network.

And so I appeared on a, I used to appear on this panel talking about reality reality TV.

And I had to get an AFTRA.

They signed me up with AFTRA because of it, because they were like an AFTRA signatory.

And then AFTRA merged with SAG.

And so now I got kind of grandfathered into a SAG card.

I've had a SAG card for 20 years.

Do you get screeners?

I get screeners because I was told, like, once you're in one of these guilds, you never want to, you want to stay in.

It's like so hard to get in there.

They pay your dues every year.

I pay my dues.

And I basically got backdoor into having a SAG card.

And then, of course, of course, I'm an obnoxious.

This is where the Janet side of me comes in when people talk about like, I'm so close to getting my SAG card.

I'm like, got one.

I'm just impressed that you're able to keep up with your dues for all those years.

But listen, I think you and I are going to find ourselves in another television program together and we're going to hold our SAG cards in every shop.

I would love to do that.

Maybe there should be a commercial for SAG.

And we'd be like, guys, as representatives of SAG, we are.

I'm an actor.

My name is Eric.

My name is Ben.

And I'm an actor.

Please cast us in a commercial.

I just want to be in the corner of a commercial somewhere.

I don't have to be lead.

I can just be one of those people walking in the back of a Claritin commercial and I'll hold like a pinwheel and I'll be like something tells me you're going to book.

I think you're going to book.

Well, one can only dream.

One can only dream.

I want to be booked and blessed someday.

I want to be in a Claritin commercial.

I've decided that's my new dream.

And you should be in one too.

And Ronnie as well, I'd like to add, because Ronnie is an actual actor, as are you.

So

Ronnie should be the lead of the Claritin, and then I'll be

this depressed person in the back.

And you know what?

I say bring back Joan London.

Joan London used to do these great Claritin commercials.

Let's bring back Joan London.

The three of us will be doing a picnic, balloon overhead.

We're breathing right because we can breathe nicely with allergies.

I love this vision for us.

I do too.

Yeah.

And one thing we will not be breathing in are fumes from a helicopter that's doing a gender reveal over our head.

That is a fate reserved for these people because that's what they're watching right now.

When the smoke actually comes out, do we see a quick cut of Cole like looking devastated?

I saw it in a teaser, but is it in the actual

episode?

I don't remember.

I don't remember, but let's just say it was.

Yeah, because in a teaser, he definitely goes like, there's like, or like, next, and they show the pink, and then he's like, or they show the preview clip, and he's like really pissed.

That's what really makes me angry when I see gender reveals on TikTok and they find out it's a girl and the dad is angry.

That makes me so pissed.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Cause they know it's harder to be an absentee father to a little girl than to a little boy.

Exactly.

God forbid he has to show a single emotion.

So then Cole has a totally normal reaction.

He goes, well, we got to paint one of the tractors pink.

Like, that makes no sense.

That's fine.

I mean, maybe, again, we could tie in.

It works.

And then the game of the baby, which I thought, I don't know if it's like, not to keep bringing up my Judaism, but it's sort of, there's like a,

what's the word?

It's taboo,

superstition.

Thank you.

There's a superstition that you don't say the name until the baby's born, but right away he's like, Blair.

And my favorite thing, Calla goes, ah,

I love that name.

Does Blair?

I mean, Blair's a great name, but does Blair?

We love our Blairs.

We love the Blair's in the audience, but Calla like losing her mind.

I guess if you're named Cala, you're really so excited by any name that's challenging.

You're like, oh my god, a normal name.

I love it.

I love

that.

It's a reaction you're supposed to have when anybody tells you the name of their child.

So, you know what?

I give her, yeah, I give her that.

Yeah.

And then Christy's like, oh, you're going to be an awesome, awesome girl dad.

Which, by the way, if I hear the phrase girl dad one more time, I'm literally like, like,

I don't know if I can deal with it anymore.

It's like one of my least favorite things that ever happened is

I'm a girl dad.

She's a girl dad.

He's a girl dad.

But Cole's like, he's like, yeah, by the way, if everyone, thanks for coming.

And if anyone wants anything inside, pizza's there.

I'm like, uh-uh, don't, don't fool those people because we know what kind of pizza it is that's inside.

Fruit pizza.

What sort of pizza?

I was like.

My dumbass is like, little season.

You're like, were we talking about a pizza at any point?

But that just goes to show how inauthentic fruit pizza is.

That doesn't even lodge into your brain as a type of pizza.

And it also goes to show that I'm smoking too much weed, but that's not the point.

So, anyway, I'm going to move this along, okay?

Because I can't deal with this gender reveal any longer.

So, they are, um,

now it's um,

big news has happened.

So, while they are there celebrating a gender, the gender reveal, and the fruit pizzas, a phone call comes through.

Someone left the door open at the chicken coop at dad's house, and for some reason,

all the brothers have to hop in their

pickup truck and head over to dad's house to see what's going on over there.

So they head on over,

and

it appears as though Galena has unleashed her wrath at the house, at the lodge.

And the women are like, Why are you, are you seriously leaving this party?

You're leaving the party for your daughter to go check in on this.

And they're like, Sorry, we have to because dad says so, which is bullshit.

Just shows, goes to show how these people are shitty.

And so they head on over there

and

they get there.

And this is chickens, The chickens are, there's supposed to be 13 chickens.

Not 13 chickens anymore.

Which I was expecting to see tumbleweed and a chicken and a half, but they cut to a pretty full roost.

A pretty thriving coop, I would have to say.

I would say.

Yeah.

Like, I've thrown parties here in Los Angeles that weren't as well attended as that chicken coop.

Yeah, like, and actually, I went to a pool party where the gays had chickens at the pool party.

And that coop and this coop looked equally healthily full of chickens.

This one was not an empty coop.

So, um, yeah, I was expecting blood.

I was expecting guts.

I was expecting like to see some foxes in there, who knows what.

And so then they're counting up the chickens.

And they're like, okay, I think we got like nine or ten.

So they, they call up Masha.

And, and Masha, Stephen's being wacky.

He's like, okay, I'm going to call Masha.

Here, take the phone.

Hot potato.

I'm like, oh, you're a funny man there.

So this is when Masha's on the FaceTime and she's like, so do you see a gray, gray chicken?

That is named pumpkin.

Pumpkin.

Why is she naming the gray chicken pumpkin?

Yeah, and Stephen goes, she has a name for everyone.

But listen, I think pumpkin is kind of a cute name for a chicken.

Sorry.

That's my hot take.

It is a cute name for a chicken, but like maybe an orange chicken.

Why a gray chicken?

What sort of pumpkins has Masha been growing up with?

Well, gray in Russian means orange

in in russia we are not allowed to have color so the world is black and white and so i i see pumpkin

this remind me in russia we didn't have pumpkin we have rock but i would pretend rock was my pumpkin so i call if i see things that look like a rock i say pumpkin so this chicken looked like a rock gray rock And then she goes, and then she goes, what about the babies?

How many babies?

Well, how many are there supposed to be supposed to be 13 little babies can you guys help me please she's fully reading her notes up on her phone

she doesn't know how many chickens there are in that place she doesn't she just got there she's not attached to any of those chickens yet she is fully lying right now fully lying so they go inside and they go into the kitchen and there's a frying pan that is

destroyed.

I mean, it is bent and warped and like it has been used to smash things up.

And I mean, it is really bad.

And they're like, what has this been used on?

And they're walking around.

And it turns out that,

well, allegedly, Galena has been going around smashing Steven's cowboy hats in.

Oh, is that what it is?

I think so.

His hats were all smashed.

Oh, see.

You know what?

Cowboy hat, those are expensive.

Right.

Oh, I guess see.

So, yeah, everyone, yeah, they, I thought it was so funny that they were like unable to find what was actually smashed.

But is a cowboy cowboy hat strong enough to make that that dent on an actual pan i would say no but uh what i'm gonna assume is the cowboy hat was placed on a surface that was strong and so banging down thank you it was the surface that was yeah

physics was not my best subject it's my favorite thing too is that

that we again have no single evidence that galena did any of this no

but she's also got a terrible poker face because she keeps on laughing to herself.

She's like, well, I don't know what you're talking about.

Bang in the corner.

Yeah,

she's got like a sucking candy in there.

So

now, yeah, they're looking around.

It's a disaster.

And so Steven is,

he calls Galena and he's like, what the fuck happened in the lodge?

Where's all the mashes stuff?

She's like, I don't know.

Where's the makeup?

I don't know.

Maybe pantry is what I assume.

I did not touch it.

Well, where are her clothes?

I don't know.

I assume that they are in a trash bag covered in rat blood, maybe burned on fire.

I was just guessing, I would not know because I wasn't there.

And then she goes,

I don't even care about her shit, but isn't she on vacation right now with your father?

Uh, and then, and then, uh,

my favorite thing about Kalina, too, is that she

is the way that she curses.

could you please give an example of her cursing

i'm going to ruin that fucking horse life it's the just something about the way that she says whore bitch i i love hearing it in a row just it kind of gurgles up outside of her like when she she doesn't just say whore she's

like it's like she's building up momentum inside of her throat and then spits it out onto the

and i do think that she without cameras it's crazy i do think that i do buy it from her a hundred percent yeah so then we go over to jesse and Allie's farmhouse and she forgot her work.

She forgot her work computer back at the city house.

I mean,

what's a city girl to do?

You're at your laptop in the country.

I mean, she might have to go all the way back there, the big city life, to get that laptop back.

But they basically have a whole conversation where

he's like,

yeah, I don't think we should keep the city house because I'm not going to live there.

First of all, I'm a man.

I'm going to call the shots.

And I need to be, I'm needed on the farm.

So guess what?

We're closing up the house and you can't stay there.

Otherwise, I'm going to break up with you.

Like

the ultimatum,

I think Alice should leave him, but I don't think there's any world that she will.

She won't.

You can see she is really upset.

She's like basically swallowing her rage and her sadness.

And

yeah, she's, she says, well, I'm going to go do some work, which we know is alive because she left her work laptop back in the big city.

So,

you know i i feel bad for her she should leave him this is not the man for you you want a man who's gonna you don't want a man who's gonna build you a house and then take it away from you you know oh my god and also like a really cute house to give you the basically giving her the life that she always dreamt of in the big city where she gets to get her nails done and then and then to take it they probably live there for like a year and then he's gonna now say i won't marry you because this that's what's next right is that there's like an ultimatum he won't get married unless she, what, they sell the house.

I think, yeah, until like she, like, she gives into like the farmer lifestyle that she doesn't want to have anymore.

Which is real shitty.

Real shitty for this hairless man to be asking of his

betrothed, right?

Thank you.

I agree.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Maybe grow some hair and we can discuss, but until you grow some hair.

And then become a D-E-A-R.

Yeah, go from bear to bear.

You know what I'm saying?

So then we go to Steven and he's driving.

And this is where he does a lot of his anger a lot of his anger acting is when he's driving and he's calling galena and he's and he's galena's not answering and he's like are you kidding me i mean hey okay kara kara have you heard from galena and kara goes i have not which is like her big that's her big line that she says she's really good at landing that line and she remembered her line she did not have to bang on the piano

I know.

I wish I could be like Kara.

If only I had her energy back in sixth grade.

She only has three words and you had a full monologue, really.

That's true.

That's true.

So he gets the office, and Galena walks in, and she starts going like upstairs.

And Stephen's like right there.

It's like it's not a big office.

And he's like, Galena, Galena, Galena.

And she just ignores him.

He has to chase her down.

And then she's like, oh, oh, I did not see you there.

Are you making some avocado toasts?

Where have you been?

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

Where have I been?

Russia.

You know what's actually devastating about this is that during this fight where he's like telling her that she has not been anywhere, she gives like a very heartfelt plea where she's like, I deserve a day off.

I deserve to grieve this man.

I mean,

that's where it pulls at my heartstrings more than I thought

it would.

Because I'm like, this woman actually put her whole life into

the villain of this farm's world.

She was completely convinced that she would be with him for the rest of her life.

She thought she would be the last one that he would break up with someone for.

And it turns out she was not the last one.

But, you know,

how you get him is how you lose them, as they say.

Yeah, she goes, I'm still a human being, and you cannot mess with my head like that.

You know how it affected me.

And then, on top of everything else, he went with my friend that made me lose my trust, period.

Like,

I feel for her.

She's giving check off.

She, I do feel for her, but this also happened a little while ago.

And so she should have taken her day off then.

I mean, hello, Ted Lasso, Ted Lasso Barbecue Sauce Company needs its meat.

Okay.

And also,

you have to like announce your sick days.

You can't just like go dark, even though it gives Stephen a chance to say she's gone dark a million times.

So, but she is, she's feeling really sad and she's giving a very Gen Z response.

I'd be like, I just was, I couldn't come to work today.

It was like really emotional.

But he is, he's like oh i don't care i don't care what's going on between my dad masha and you okay because now the arthur brightens deal are actually business going to hell in a handbasket oh you know the handbaskets i'm glad you mentioned that because i was thinking that we should get involved with the handbasket business test and now is not the time okay

what's going on are you gonna be able to continue at what point what what's going on with you with you galena

and she's basically like Well, maybe you should start questioning your father and what he is doing, you know?

Because I'm human.

And, you know, like when you're spending so much time with the person, it tells you, you love you, et cetera.

And so she's going on and on about like all this stuff.

And then, because she's crafty, you know, he says, I don't know, maybe we shouldn't.

I'm starting to question whether, whether keeping you on is the right decision.

And she's basically like, oh, you can't fire me because I know where all the bodies are buried.

And she essentially says, oh, that was low blow because, you know, after everything going on the last couple of years and you brought me to this point, I mean, and don't even start me on FBI investigation, Bravo television.

And he's like,

he's like, god damn it.

Come here.

Come here.

Get in here.

We're going.

I'm taking off this microphone right now.

We're going to have a conversation behind this closed door that the cameras will definitely not be able to pick up.

And then he spells it out.

My dad is under FBI investigation, and you are the only one and my mom that even know what's going on.

So that has to stay between us about the investigation going on with the FBI, between my dad and the FBI.

That cannot be told between anyone, between us and the fbi

i keeps cutting to kara the receptionist being like oh like pretend mugging's doing wordle doing wordle it's fine let me try um adieu ad i e you a lot of hours a lot of hours

oh god i didn't really quite get to that fifth letter did i

so

adieu's there nailed it

um

so basically yeah the cliffhanger that comes out is that that they're under FBI investigation and who knows what will happen.

Even the brothers don't know about it, but now it has to all come out because Galena opened her mouth and it was not expected at all whatsoever.

So, that was the end of McBee Dynasty this episode.

Eric, thank you so much for joining on this very important piece of television.
