Hey, Chicks in the Office listeners.

Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music.
This is state of emergency.
What's up, everyone?
It's Chicks in the Office with Ria and Fran, giving you that Friday energy on a Monday.
Hopefully everyone had an amazing weekend.
How are you guys feeling on this lovely Monday morning?
Happy Monday.
Happy Monday, everybody.
I'm ready for a good week.
I love that attitude.
Your eagles are doing great, huh?
So good.
So good.
I look at the score to make sure that you're happy.
I just, it's funny because this morning I woke up and saw a clip of Kelly Kieg's on KVC Radio talking about like the people who like watch who are so into sports where it just like affects everything.
It's like, oh, like if you're at a wedding and you're like watch a screen, just like drop dead.
So I'm like, it's funny because Kelly should hate me.
But, like, it really does, it really does affect me.
We, I went to watch, I was watching the game with some friends.
And the whole second half, like, I was so tense.
I was not being cold per se, but I was just like on edge.
And, and people, I could imagine.
Like, everyone, everything, I was just like, guys, like, stop trying to, I'm not trying
to, like, have a casual conversation.
Like, I'm watching the game.
Like, I'm stressed.
Yeah, don't be cute with me.
Yeah, I'm stressed.
And as soon as the kicker on the Cardinals missed and they won, I like shot up out of my seat and was like, yes.
And Joe like looked around the table.
He was like, we've got Fran back.
I was like, yeah, I'm back.
Sorry, guys.
I was like, so how's everybody doing?
We want to go get another drink?
Finally, you're like, so tell me about what happened this weekend.
Yeah, I'm like, okay, so now let's talk about everything else.
I'm good now.
Yeah, I don't watch the Eagles games, but I check in.
to make sure that you're doing okay thanks i appreciate that you're welcome noa how was your weekend
it was nice quiet pretty pretty quiet didn't do much you go to see that band two more times this
weekend uh i did i did i went on except one except one night you didn't go oh yeah i went up to i was saying
friday and then i was like you know what went the middle of the show on
friday i was like all right this is it like i don't i was just like i don't need to come again
And then I knew the-
So when did you go Thursday and Friday?
Yeah.
So the middle of the show on Friday you said.
I was just like, all right.
It was the same exact show.
No, it's not the same show.
They switched it up, but they do,
they were playing songs that I've seen.
I mean, I saw them four times.
So like, they're going to repeat a couple songs.
Yeah.
But then I also did know.
And it was still fun.
Like one of the nights that I went by myself again,
like I made friends with this guy next to me.
And like, he's like, oh, yeah, I'm coming back tomorrow.
And then I'm like, he's like they do something crazy for the last show always.
I'm like, I don't know.
Like, I don't need to come.
And then I knew a day
I'm spending a lot of money
Like
Right
That's not too
To see the same show
And they're all at Beacon Theater
Yeah
Yeah
No it was pretty expensive
My mom did text me
This weekend
And she said
I'm texting to tell you
To tell Noah
We went to see
Tedashi
Tadashi truck's band
Yeah
She said we went to see
Tatchi truck
In the Vineyard last year
Great band
Midnight in Harlem
Is their biggest hit
Listen to it
Great song
She knows what she's talking about
She wanted me to tell you that
She's in the know.
I forgot to tell you until right now.
Lauren knows what she's talking about.
They're married.
Tedeschi is the woman and Trucks is the guy.
They're last names.
That's cool.
And the singer and lead guitar,
the two lead people.
Tetschi trucks are.
You know what?
That makes awesome.
That makes a lot of sense because I kept seeing you reshare their Instagram
and their Instagram is like their first names.
It's just like Derek and Susan.
And I was like, why would they not make the band name?
It's literally Ria and France.
Disclassing Derek and Susan.
Yeah, I was like, it's just Derek and Susan.
Like that's like,
Is this they're personal and then they have a band account?
Yeah, but I saw the hairstyle thing.
I was like, fuck.
That's awesome.
I went to, I want to talk to you about Disney,
but I want to just mention that the Boston show.
Yes, go.
By the way.
We are headed back to Boston.
They are headed back to Boston.
And the tickets are on sale now.
Yeah.
We don't know.
They could be, fingers crossed.
They could be sold out right now.
I hope that would be awesome for us.
We're not exactly sure.
Who wants to get tickets is getting tickets.
Right, because we're recording a lot.
little bit later on Monday. So we're not exactly sure when this podcast is going to drop them.
The tickets go on sale at 1 p.m. So we don't, you may be listening later on. Yeah.
The link is in the bio. Link is in the bio. And we will be posting the link on our social pages.
Yeah. If you want to know where to find it. Please. Please. Please. And we're so excited.
So I cannot wait. I'm very excited to get back. Me too. And on stage. Um, what was it going to say?
I'm going to have to go to a couple of mics before we go. But yeah. Work on your, your tight five.
So balsamic
Tight 5
I went to see Kago
Friday night
at Madison Square Garden
And it was
So fucking awesome
I can't even
I can't even
Put into words
How much fun I had at that concert
It was so cool
Question
Do you just drink
Do you partake in anything else
No
You want to say anything illegally
But just drink
In that moment
No
For this it was just
You're just high on life
I had a couple
Martini's beforehand
went in.
Fine.
They got the tall boys.
It did look awesome though.
It was awesome.
It's just like a show that they don't do at MST often.
Right.
So it was like such a cool environment to be like that and the fire and the pyrotechnics.
Yeah, I was going to say, it makes sense to be on the ground because I saw some people in the stands.
And I was like, how are you in the stands for Kigo?
Yeah, it's hard because Kago gets you up and jumping around and dancing.
Not a lot of room.
And it was fun.
In the stands.
What I do love also about MSU a lot.
most of the time when you go for floor
seats they don't
like their capacity
is not actually full
you know it's not like you there's breathing room
if you want to be like all the way in the front
sure you're going to be squished a little bit but you can
still be in a great spot and like have all the space
around you which is um what
we did but he just plays hit after
hit he really has he does and then he brings
out people to who like
are featured on his songs which is fun
so like that's you know live music
element these singers are great he brought it Lucas
Graham. And they
I guess I can't they have a new
song or they did something together but then
he also sang seven years
once I was seven years old.
That one. Oh yes.
Yeah. Kygo is one of the
only Instagram stories where
it matches up
to I think the visuals
of what you're seeing. You know what I mean?
Like you watch Instagram stories you're like wow that looks
sick. Yeah. If you watch other
concert Instagram stories.
You're not feeling me.
Yeah, but just in general, I mean, we all do it.
You're not feeling what that person's feeling.
It's a different level.
But Kygo, you could see all the visuals.
It looks very cool.
And because you see the crowd, too, but pure joy.
Everyone's having a great time.
Having a great time.
Sam felt opened for him as well, which was really cool, which I just didn't know
was happening at all.
It's another great DJ.
And it was just like not advertised.
It was just, we were walking into MSG and a group of girls.
were like, did you guys know Sam?
I was opening?
And we were like, what?
So that was a fun surprise, too.
And did your friends who you ended up bringing because the other ones bailed?
Yes.
They had so much fun.
I was being thanked for the whole weekend.
Like we were, it was like Friday at like 5 p.m.
And we were still texting like, damn, that was a great night.
Love that.
Yeah.
Jealous.
How was Disney?
Disney was great.
I had an amazing weekend.
Actually, a lot of laughs, a lot of fun.
A lot of great food.
and drinking. We really had such a great time. That sounds amazing. We have such a great time with
Marty's parents, actually. But Disney itself, obviously always a great time. People are losing
their happiness there. Oh, no. I'll just say that. What parks did you go to? I only went to Epcot.
You only went to Epcot. Only went to Epcot. Because we had a dinner reservation in Epcot at 630.
Okay. So we went to, we went a little later, more like 11 a.m. instead of usually you'd wake up 8, 9 a.m.m.
get to the parks really early, but we were like, okay, we're, we know that we have this reservation
at 630, so we need to pace ourselves. So we ended up going around 11-ish. And by the time we had
went through all the countries, it was like 3 o'clockish. And so after that, we kind of just
went on attractions that you can because certain rides there, you have to like make reservations
for now. It's very confusing. The worst ride part. Yes. Epcot. Oh, that's, there's a minute.
That's a thing.
That's known.
Test track is there, which is cool.
Guardians of the Galaxy, I wanted to go on.
That's the one you have to make a reservation.
Mission space, the worst ride you can ever go on in your life.
Mission space?
Yes, it will disorient to you.
Oh, wait, that's one where you're like G-Force.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's, yeah.
When I went on someone.
People throw up all the time.
No, we were all very disoriented.
Marty's dad was like, I feel like I have the flow.
Yeah, yeah, that'll fuck you up.
And, like, Marty was like, I can't see straight.
And me and his mom were like, you know, we're like a little disoriented too,
but you guys seem like you're really out of it right now.
And so that one was just, I will never go on that right again.
But Epcot is really cool, obviously, going from all the countries.
But I will say people there and the workers there seem less happy than I feel like they used to.
Maybe it's because I'm older.
Maybe, yeah.
Yeah, maybe that's, you might just be seeing the reality, you know?
Right.
But I love Disney.
I want to go back.
And one park.
Maybe they're a little happier Magic Kingdom.
I think so.
If we go back to Disney when we have maybe plan to go, we got to go to Magic Kingdom.
We got to go to Hollywood Studios.
Oh, Rock and Roller Coaster.
Yeah, Epcot's great.
It's just, you drink, you eat food, it was great.
That's like a nighttime thing, right?
No, it was during the day.
No, I'm saying like, but Epcot, if you go at night, just like for the restaurants type thing.
I guess, but we, I mean, you eat, we ate and drink all throughout the day.
It was great.
It was a lot of fun.
What was your favorite drink?
My favorite drink was the frozen rosé that I got at the Alps, which was really tasty.
I got a spoon because it was so frozen that I was just eating it like.
Alcoholic.
Ice cream basically.
Yes, exactly.
A girl I ran into right before I was going at the Alps had a-
Before I was headed up the mountain.
Had a creamsicle slushy from France that we had missed and we were so upset because we were like,
we can't make our way back around.
Yeah. But she was like, you can't be moving backwards.
She was like, it's so good.
And also she's going to come to the Boston show.
She's from Connecticut.
But she was so nice, so fun.
But she was like, this drink is so good.
And I was like, fuck, we missed out on it.
But I really enjoyed the any type of frozen drink there because it's so hot.
Yeah.
And I'll say this.
Don't come for me.
If you eat a turkey leg at Disney World, you are barbaric.
Sorry.
I know they're there.
And apparently Joe Manzanel, we eat.
and that made me almost think twice about it.
But I think if you're eating a turkey leg at Disney World.
That just makes me want to eat a turkey leg in front of you.
If we go.
If we did it as a joke, that's the thing.
I would do it as a joke with you.
Okay.
Get turkey legs.
We've got turkey legs.
But if you are dead set on getting, like your...
I just actually don't love turkey like that that much.
Me either.
Maybe that's why.
Yeah.
You don't love...
Like, out of everything on the turkey, you mean?
No, just to see.
As far as turkey in that way.
Like, I love a turkey sandwich, a deli sandwich.
But I don't...
Thanksgiving, you don't love that.
Thanksgiving, Thanksgiving, Turkey's my least favorite item on my plate.
Right, I throw it on my dish because I have to.
Yeah.
But if you could choose one part of a turkey to eat...
I don't have a specific part.
Really?
I don't...
Turkey... Turkey...
But they're so big in Disney.
Yeah, I mean, I'm thinking...
Yeah, I just...
I don't really think I've ever had, like, a full turkey...
Like, the turkey leg.
But there's different...
You know what I'm saying like.
Yeah.
I just like the white meat.
I like the breast.
Turkey legs, it's just like if you're, are you going for a turkey leg or a hot dog?
I like the skin.
And if you're going for the turkey leg, I think you're an animal.
Enjoy it, though.
But I'll do it one time.
I would like to, you know what it makes me think?
Just all of us posing with turkey legs would be really funny.
Yeah, it would be funny.
Makes me think of like, and she's the man when she's chowing down on that, like, maybe it's a chicken wing.
Maybe I'm judging because.
question. It was a trivia question. Maybe I'm judging because I've never had a turkey
leg in Disney, but when I see people walking around just like leg in hand, I'm like, whoa,
you can take someone's eye out with that funny. They're big, they're thick, they're thick legs.
Yeah, it's not like sitting down at a table and eating it's like. Have you ever seen somebody walk around
with one? No. My God. I told you the last time I was at Disney, actually inside Disney,
I was a child. I was. I was a child.
like eight I don't even remember like I was that young. What are these freaking things that people are
walking around with? The last time I yeah that's a big ass turkey way it is it is when I the last
time I mean I went when I was like 21 yeah but I went with um I just went to universal because I
went with my mom to Harry Potter worlds so I have not been to like Disney proper in
Like probably 20 years.
Yes, yeah.
I'm no Disney adult, but I have weirdly been.
Actually, the last time I was there was 2012.
Yeah.
But you've gone a couple times.
Well, I went to Universal.
Well, I went twice in 2015.
Yeah.
Because once I went with my family, which was planned unironically with my, and then
I had my senior trip in high school was Disney.
But no, I went to Universal.
Yes.
Right.
It's not Disney.
Yeah.
I love rides.
What can I say?
Love rides, but it will be fun if I'll go back.
And you know what?
We'll all eat a turkey leg together.
How about that?
We should.
As a family.
All right.
Let's get into...
Guys, you should see this movie I saw yesterday.
What movie was it?
Triangle of Sadness.
It's incredible.
Woody Harrelson's in it, your guy.
Love Woody.
I've never heard of it.
Great.
Is it in theaters?
It's like only playing in like Lincoln Center theater.
But like,
So good. So good.
Is it online?
You would really like it because it's like very white lotusy.
Really?
Yeah.
Can you watch it online or no?
Oh, so I'd have to go to a specific theater.
A cruise for the super rich sinks leaving survivors, including a fashion model celebrity couple trapped on an island.
Also really sad, but I found out because the two main people in it are like supposed to be models in the movie.
So obviously they're both like very good looking.
So like just naturally after the movie I like Googled the girl just to see.
and she died like a month ago.
She's only like 30.
What?
That's awful.
Yeah.
I was like,
I thought it was like a mess up.
I was like, what?
Because she's literally like,
this movie just came out.
This South African actress?
Yeah.
That's really, really sad.
And she was so good.
And like they don't know why.
They were like, she just like became ill and then like went to the hospital and died.
This is a fear.
And like she had like a lung infection.
that may have been complicated by the loss of her spleen from an earlier accident.
Well, gee, good Lord, that's terrible.
I know, it's terrible.
That was...
Before the movie even came out.
Quite the transition.
Yeah.
But the movie is really good.
And she was really good at it.
Whoa.
Jeez.
She was also on Black Lightning, which is a show on the CW.
Yeah, the movie is described as a satirical.
dark comedy. Definitely dark comedy. Yeah. That is white lotus. It's very white lotusy. That's
comes, that second season is, comes out soon. I saw the trailer. Yeah, it's in Sicily. I'm excited about
that. I've never seen a show taking place there. Also, the offer. I started watching that because I got
Paramount Plus to watch this other movie. And I was like, oh, the offer's on Paramount. And it's good.
It is good. Miles Taylor doesn't get enough recognition for that show. His voice initially threw me off
because I was like, oh, that's not what he sounds like, but then. Right. And then you watch, you're like, oh, he's really good.
Okay, yes, we're going to get into the topics.
I also want to say I know because we talked about it multiple times last week.
It was really like the biggest thing that was going on over the weekend.
Kanye is off of Instagram and Twitter now, I believe.
I feel like we can bring this up right now and not talk about it moving forward because it's like it's one thing when it feels like petty drama and another thing when it gets as.
serious as when he decided he wanted to go to Twitter and spew very hateful anti-semitic comments
that just have no place in this world whatsoever. And he should be banned from all social media.
He's just like, it was so terrible. When I read that tweet, I was like, this is so bad and
so bad. I could not believe that he wrote that. Like genuinely was like, is this a fake Kanye Twitter account
writing this or is this actually Kanye writing it? Exactly. So we just want to,
Like, get into topics, but that was so fucked up and just awful.
Really awful that there's just no place in the world for shit like that right now.
Like you cannot be spewing hate like that.
And that is, and it is just, there's no tiptoeing around that.
No, that one, there's no.
There's no, oh, well, he really meant this or he's coming from this place.
It's like, no, that one was pretty.
There's no nothing.
That is anti-Semitic.
just a fully anti-Semitic.
That one was pretty straightforward.
Yeah.
So just couldn't...
It's coming after me now.
Yeah.
Couldn't be more out.
We got you, Noah.
Couldn't be more out on Kanye.
Like, just as if we even needed to say that at this point.
All right, let's get into the topics for today.
We're going to be talking about Madonna coming out on TikTok.
Adam Levine and Bahadhi seemed to be doing A-OK after this cheating scandal.
And we're going to be talking about Ellen DeGeneres' record label that seemed to be one big scam and shady.
We also have a great interview with Johnny Bananas because the challenge is back this week.
And we have a great game of trivia.
So let's get into it starting off with Madonna.
As you guys know, we love going to concerts.
Noah went to at least four last week.
Fran headed to Kygo.
We are concert goers.

Madonna posted a TikTok this past weekend where it was one of those TikToks.
It's like a trend where it says, if I miss, I'm blah, blah, blah.
So she wrote, if I miss, I'm gay.
And she threw it, missed, and then.
Everyone was like, is this?
Is it?
It was her coming out?
Madonna never fails to be just a unique brand of human.
You know, like Madonna is just Madonna.
She will always be Madonna.
And it's just who would have thought that that's just the way she would do this?
Like with like a TikTok trend.
It's just like, well, okay.
Right.
Sure.
Just put it out there.
Yeah.
I learned through TikTok also that, you know, like a prayer by Madonna.
Yes.
Great song.
Yeah.
It is apparently about giving blowjaps.
Have you ever read the lyrics?
I'll read them to you.
It's not confirmed.
You guys know I'm not a lyric person.
It's not confirmed.
Something about like being on her knees.
Well, it's.
I'm down.
When you call my name, it's like a little prayer.
I'm down on my knees.
I want to take you there.
In the midnight hour, I can fill your power.
Just like a prayer.
You know I'll take you there.
Take you there.
Yeah.
I get it.
I get it.
Climax.
Yeah.
But people are saying that it's about blowjobs.
Now, that's not confirmed by Madonna.
No.
But I feel like a lot of songs have some sexual innuendos that you don't really.
But it's funny because, like, you know, could be interpreted in other ways.
Like, you would think it's about, like, religion or God.
And because the music video was so heavily, like, a lot of religion in it.
And it was controversial back in the day, some might say.
But that's what TikTok is saying, is that like a prayer is about blowjrops.
I feel like TikTok.
But Madonna did not describe like a prayer as a song about blowjrops.
Yeah, no.
She described it as a song about a passionate young girl who is so in love with God
that it is almost as though he were the male figure in her life.
And so I think it's because she grew up Catholic.
Yeah.
I also think it is very possible that there's, like, ways for songs to not intentionally be like that, but then...
It comes across.
Even the artist itself is like, oh, that is...
This goes on to say.
That is not what I meant.
But then sometimes it does.
Like, everybody was like, oh, watermelon sugar and the watermelon sugar is, in fact.
But...
About that, but...
She wrote this song with producer Patrick Leonard.
Yeah. And she wrote in about three hours, writing and producing it with Patrick Leonard.
He then explained that he was not comfortable with the lyrics and the sexual innuendos, giving the example, when you call my name, it's like a little prayer, I'm down on my knees. I want to take you there. He felt that that could also refer to someone performing oral sex. However, Madonna refused to change the line as she was adamant about keeping it in. So Madonna does not say the song is about blowjabs, but the guy Maddobs.
Donna produced and wrote it with said it could be taken that way, warned her that it could be
taken that way.
Right.
So now everyone on TikTok is going, oh my God, I can't believe this song, you got blowjobs,
and it could or could not be.
However, you interpret it.
Yeah.
As an innocent girl who went to Catholic school, it's about praying to me, not blowjobs, mom.
No, I definitely, and I don't think it needs to, like, you can just, songs been around for a
very long time.
A ton of songs about blow jobs.
Yeah.
Made me two more.
What?
I said name me two more songs about blow jobs.
I don't know.
I feel like every rap song.
Names talks about blow jobs.
Yeah.
Definitely.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You're probably right on that.
She suck my dick.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
That's it.
That's a lyric.
I know so much said a lot.
I know it is.
What?
That is literally a song lyric.
Oh, no, I'm sure it is.
Okay, anyway.
Anyway, Madonna's TikTok was viewed 1.3 million times in the first hour alone,
because I think people were taken aback.
She's only publicly dated men, I believe.
But, and I think she's, like, rumored to be dating, like, a young model at the
moment. Andrew
Darnell.
He's 23.
Wow.
How old's Madonna?
64.
Yep. It's just
There was
she was spotted
snuggling and cuddling with her rumored
model beau, Andrew Darnell, 23 over Labor Day
weekend.
And of course, everybody always likes
to discuss the public
kisses that have happened on stage
with Madonna that everybody always
remembers. And then
the Daily Mail had reference that
she also shared a picture of
herself French kissing
two women in the back of a car while celebrating
her 64th birthday in Italy earlier
this year. Madonna
can just
do whatever she wants. Madonna
is going to live her life.
Whether it's kissing girls or kissing boys.
So maybe at this time in her life
she wanted to publicly
make that TikTok and say, hey everyone, in case you're wondering, this is me.
Yep. And I'm Madonna. And that's it. How powerful to just have one name?
It is very powerful, yeah.
Adam Levine and Bahadhi seem to be doing just fine after the cheating scandal, the text, all of that has come to light.
They are laughing in public. Why now are we seeing them laughing having a great time in public when I don't think I've seen these people in years?
in public? Is it just because the paparazzi's on their tail now?
Yeah. Trying to get them. Are they posing for the pictures? Are they actually happy?
Who's to say? Well, yeah. I definitely think the paparazzi are on them.
They're on their tail. More. They're definitely on their tail. Hot on their tail.
Yeah. But I also wouldn't be surprised if that's a planned publicity stunt, one might say, of like, hey, we are we are going to try and work.
through this. We want to come across
like a united front.
We're going to take the kids
to the beach and
there's probably going to be some pictures taken
of us, of us being a
one big happy family and let's just
hope that those get published so
everyone thinks that we're
a okay. I'm not buying
the smiling from
ear to ear. I'm as happy as I've ever
looked in my life pictures.
Right. I want them
well, I'm rooting for Bahadi's
happiness. Whatever is going to make her happy, I'm rooting for. If that's staying with Adam and figuring
it out with him, go ahead. I'm rooting for you, Bahadi. Yeah. Frank's yelling about the mess.
Frank. Yeah, the Mets lost last night. But for Adam, I'm just still so grossed out by him.
I know. Well, this is the thing. You'll never like, you can try and change public opinion.
So like, oh my God, look at these pictures. They look so happy. Yada, yada, yada. We won't forget.
people don't forget when it comes to things like this.
We didn't forget about Tristan Thompson time and time again.
No.
And we will not forget about Adam.
I think it's everybody's been talking about the try guys and Adam Levine have all been going like hand in hand of just men cheating on their wives.
And it's interesting how like publicly it's just Adam Levine is now with his wife.
They're being seen out.
They're handling things privately of course.
course, but they obviously want to be seen publicly.
Right. They're tipping the paparazzi off where they're going.
Yeah. Hey, catch us smiling on the beach a little bit. Let everyone know. We're staying together.
The try guys have 9.8 million views on their video of the three guys talking about Ned,
which is a lot of views. That is a lot of views. A lot, a lot of views. And I don't think I've
really seen any other things about Ned. But I'm not, I'm not locked.
into the try guys drama i've never heard of the try guys until this all happened and you weren't here
recording when it happened like kelly and i had talked about it so it was like we were learning about it too
because it was like we're we got to back up and figure out who what's happening with these people
and who they are and what they do yeah and i feel like i haven't seen i don't know i know there was
initial pictures of ned and his wife out and about but i don't think that's i don't think
think that that has been, I don't know if anything more of that has happened.
I feel like the Adam and Bahadi pictures are so that people are not necessarily talking about
the text anymore, but they're more talking about these pictures. And they're like, oh, look,
it looks like they're figuring things out, whatever it is, it looks like they're going to be
okay or they're going to try to make it and be okay. And now we're not talking about the text
and the pictures or anything of that sort anymore. I just want Bahadhi to be happy. And
if she's going to be with Adam, she's going to be with Adam.
But that don't mean that we now love Adam.
It's also just, God, it's so hard.
You have kids, young kids.
She's pregnant, like, just having another baby.
Right.
Like, it's just to go through the stress levels, all of that going through maybe if you did,
a very public breakup, if it did happen.
But there's always whispers of, like, well, maybe she did know something was happening.
Like, it's, this is a thing when you're, you can be, I've always felt like,
You can be outraged for someone in that scenario when you feel like they want the outrage.
You know, like you said, you support Bahadis.
Like if she says, I'm working through this with my family, that it's like, okay, well, you're working through this with your family.
It's the same when Chloe decided to do it for the nine million time.
It was like, oh, this doesn't feel like a good idea, but okay.
Right.
And it was, you can't get mad at Bahadi.
You can't be like, you're such an idiot.
You just got to let her do her thing until it's like the third, fourth time, like Tristan and Chloe, where you're like, Chloe, come on, come on. You knew this was going to happen.
Or if you just never know and, or we just never know, like the inner workings, like I said, and maybe there was some sort of open.
Some sort of open situation.
And like when I said at the beginning that it was more like, hey, I be fucking discreet if this is what you're doing.
Use a burner.
But yeah.
So not, yeah, it just, they are, here they are, all these pictures.
There's a ton of them sitting on the beach.
Laughing, looking chummy.
Their kids are there.
Looks like they're having a nice time.
They biked, they were on these bikes.
They went down to Montecito over the weekend and just looks like they are making it work.
Which, honestly, I think you probably would surprise everybody that this is the
path. But if that's the way they're going, then good luck. Yep, exactly.

This one got me. I'm very intrigued by this. Why? I talked about this on the show that I was a
very avid Ellen show washer. I was. I watched a lot of it in the time in the time when
you know, everybody loved Ellen.
There was no...
Remember those...
We didn't know.
I didn't know.
We didn't know.
I always knew.
Remember Sophia and...
Sophia Grace.
Yeah.
Fucking Sophia Grace and Rosie.
Sophia Grace and Rosie.
That was an amazing time on Ellen.
She had so many...
Yeah.
Apparently is the only time I've ever liked Ellen.
Apparently.
Apparently.
Apparently kid?
Oh, yeah.
Love him.
He was just doing other stuff too.
His name was Noah.
Thank you.
So,
So, Grayson Chance was a young singer who got his big break on Ellen.
He extremely talented kid.
He, like, did a cover of paparazzi that was really big.
And then he obviously put out his own music.
And he was on that show.
And he didn't, he recently did an interview with Rolling Stone where he said,
and this is
it's harsh but probably
accurate he said
he has never met someone more
manipulative more self-centered
and more blatantly opportunistic
than Ellen
Ellen had signed him to her now
shuttered label 1111 in 2010
after his viral cover of Lady Gaga's paparazzi
but Grayson said she became
quote domineering and way too controlling
before then completely abandoning him
once his music started to underperform
Ellen herself has not addressed the allegations,
but a source told Entertainment Tonight
that Ellen and the team went above and beyond for Grayson,
adding that sometimes careers just don't take off.
So,
Ellen is a monster.
I guess, you know, her team is claiming that, you know,
sometimes it just doesn't work out.
And sometimes people just don't, you know, a star,
a kid isn't, he's not going to have that stardom.
But he is extremely, he's extremely talented.
And he is extremely talented.
He still puts out music.
but I don't find that to be like a crazy thing
I feel like he is now at a place in his life
that it's 12 years later
and he was really young he was really really young at the time
so it's like I'm sure that was he his parents were involved
with things like that now he's looking back and being like wow that was really
fucked up didn't she call him and yelled at him for not watching the
Justin Bieber documentary I saw yeah I think yeah I believe that was also a story that
was told yes if you're going to make it in this world
No, really.
No, I know.
Like, actually, so it's so wild.
But you know what?
I did not realize that Charlie...
What a freaking monster.
Yeah. Charlie Puth was signed to 1111, which I did not realize.
Like, I guess I just didn't really...
Like, in my mind, Charlie Puth was just...
Charlie Puth.
He just has been Charlie Puth this whole time.
So did Ellen...
Does Ellen take credit for Charlie Pooth's success?
Probably.
I just...
But he...
Charlie talked about what Grace and...
had said in a different interview with Rolling Stone, and he had said that they, we both have
different experiences, me versus Grayson. And he said, he didn't exactly say the same, but Charlie did
agree with Grayson on at least one front. He said, I do agree with him that no one was present,
certainly, after the creation of my first demo EP. Charlie, who signed to 11, 11 after getting
prominence on YouTube, ended up leaving the label in the end, but he said he's not putting any
blame on one person, but from a collective.
all the people that were in that room
they just disappeared. They didn't
I didn't hear from anybody.
So it just sounds like maybe
she had a very poorly run label.
Shocking.
Well, she had a show to run.
Ellen was worried about the Ellen show
and she's going to have it. She wanted it all.
The people she put in charge of the label
clearly weren't doing their job.
Ellen wanted it all. Yes.
For Charlie to say like, you know,
after I did my first few things like nobody
everybody just disappeared.
That's not good. Not good at all.
That's definitely not what you want out of your,
out of your label.
So it's just another
unfortunate Ellen DeGeneres interaction.
I honestly can never get enough of unfortunate Ellen DeGeneres.
Well, now I just, I honestly feel like.
All the kids that went on,
let us know what happened.
Yeah.
Well, I feel like now's the time.
I feel like now's the time that people,
now that the show's over and.
She really like, it kind of just ended.
It could seem like people really could have.
It seemed like it ended really quietly, like the show.
Yeah, I think that was the point.
I know, but I don't know.
I think it was kind of like, oh, we'll give her one big send-off.
Let's like bring Jennifer Aniston out here, remind everyone that Jennifer Aniston and Ellen are best friends.
All the really famous people like her, because I'm sure she's like, she treats them.
Yeah, exactly.
She's not going to treat the-
Jennifer Anston.
She doesn't treat the little people that way.
She treats the big people that way.
But if you're Jennifer Anston, then I think she's,
she's probably like, damn.
I'm sure that she's...
No, I mean, I do feel like sometimes
those A-List celebrities are just...
They can't...
No, it's not even...
No, not even that.
It's just like...
You have to
base your relationships
off of your own personal interactions
because when you're that famous,
you know how many rumors there are about you
and people say shit all the time.
So in their mind, they're probably like,
oh, I've had stuff made up about me before.
I personally have only had good interactions with Ellen,
so I'm going to go off that instead of what, like...
And then, you know, I'm sure there's also another level
and some AILA celebrities are absolutely wonderful and nice
and beautiful to all walks of earth,
and some are probably not.
But there are still rumors about the people that are nice to everybody.
Of course, yes.
And the other celebrities, then they feel bad for Ellen.
Oh, Alan, I'm so sorry you're dealing with all these rumors.
She's only been so nice to me.
The only other person to hear about is James Corden.
James Corden's another monster.
I'm actually not sure about that.
But people do say that. I don't know if that's true.
I think I've, I see more mixed.
Like when the rumor started to come about Ellen, it was a floodgate.
It was like now everybody was like, okay, yes, we're finally talking about Ellen.
I feel like with James Corden, it's still sometimes mixed.
Like people are really like, people have stories, but then some people are like, oh, no,
I had a good interaction with him, which I'm, I'm sure people have had good interactions with Ellen at some point.
But like, if you look at both of them, it's like James Corny, like, I could see him being nice.
Ellen, it's like, I don't see anything in her.
You're a big Ellen hater.
Catch Ellen on the wrong day.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'd be scared.
I'd be scared to hear.
It was very disappointing for me to see.
I really did enjoy watching all the Ellen clips.
I would literally watch on TV or I'd watch them on YouTube on Ellen Tube.
Ellen tube, the Never Have I ever eclips, I love those.
I know.
What a downfall she had.
When she would make Andy go through the haunted houses.
I love that.
You know what I say?
You either die a hero or you live long as to see yourself become the villain.
But Ellen is probably living her life right now.
Oh, Ellen is doing just fun.
I mean, financially, I think she is.
But I also think she's the type person who's like her whole legacy is like ruined.
Well, the thing is she was like the nice person.
Yeah.
Like it was like, it's not even like,
James Corden isn't like, oh, James Corden, the nicest guy on earth.
You know what I mean?
Like, nobody's saying that about him.
I don't think James Corden signs off his show was, be kind to one another.
That is the telltale sign that somebody is not the nicest person.
Whenever you see somebody on Instagram, they write a mean comment and you click their bio,
and it's always be kind.
Or like, it's always that way.
It's always the people telling other people to be nice.
Yeah, or a Bible quote.
Like, it's always the people telling people to be nice that are mean.
Agreed. So, you know, I feel bad for Grayson Chance because I feel like he did not get the support he needed when he was trying to build his career. And he is a very talented singer. Have you seen Justin? The paparazzi.
Sorry I said Justin. I don't want to trigger Grayson by saying Justin Bieber. But justice for Grayson.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are back with another game of beat, Ria and Fran. This is game number 51. As you all know,
game number 50 was Harry Potter trivia in which Kelly and Fran dominated their opponents.
Yes, I have my hosting voice back on.
Today we are joined by the wonderful Kira and Rosie, who seemed to be worthy opponents
and we are ready to take them on.
How are you girls feeling?
Great, great.
Awesome.
Can't wait.
Good.
We're going to have a good game.
I will just say about the Harry Potter.
like my brother
texted me and was like Kelly needs
to
like go on some kind
of television competition show
or something for Harry
like she was like there's got to be something she could go on
that would give her like money
or prizes or something because it's
actually insane and it was
but it was a lot of fun maybe we'll do that again at some
points there have been a lot of people who reached out being like
I could beat Kelly Keeks
we should have I love this
I love this all these people out there they can beat
Kelly, nobody can be Kelly. I want
them to play again. I want
Kelly Keys to play somebody who's like
I'm going to fucking destroy Kelly.
But I'm rooting for her. Other versions of
trivia, Jersey Shore trivia, like that type of thing.
Branded trivia. Specialty trivia. Maybe one
geared towards entourage. Yeah, entourage
trivia I would be good at. All right. Well, maybe
there'll be some fun questions today. We'll brainstorm. We'll work on
that. All right. So, rules for
this game, 15 questions. Whoever is the
most points at the end is the winner.
If you got a question wrong, the other team can steal the point if they get it right to
determine what team goes first.
Noah's going to give us a movie.
We're going to guess each person gets a guess for the critics' Rottent Tomato
score.
Whoever is the closest will get to go first.
So Noah, what is today's movie?
You've got mail.
Good film.
Good movie.
Never seen it.
You have never seen it.
You have never seen you've got male.
You love rom-coms.
I do.
Yeah, I don't know.
I have nothing against it.
I just have never seen it.
Put that on your list.
Wait, who's the woman in it?
It's, uh...
Meg Ryan.
Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Good movie.
It was Meg Ryan after she kind of switched up her look, right?
No.
No?
Okay.
All right.
Anyways.
Don't think you to Meg Ryan right now.
Kieran Rosie.
Don't start on that note.
I was just calling you a feminist right before the show started.
I know.
And he's like,
She changed your face.
Okay.
Kieran, Rosie, whoever wants to go first, go ahead.
Okay, Rosie, do you want to go first?
No, you go first.
Okay, I feel like it's high.
So I'm going to say 71.
Okay, I feel like...
Wait, no, it's our turn.
Oh, I'm sorry.
No, you're good.
Rosie, you have such a sweet voice and I was going to joke around and be like,
back off, Rosie.
And then you're like, oh, and I was like, wow, she sounds so sweet.
I'm not going to joke around.
like that. Um, I was going to say 71. So now I'm throwing off. Whoa. Oh, no. Um, you want me to go?
Okay. I'm going to go with 83. Okay, Rosie, now with you. Okay. Um, the more I like the movie,
the more I'm going to go lower because I never seem to agree with rotten tomatoes. So I'll do,
uh, 50. Okay, so she went 50. So you got the 80 and above covered. So I'm,
I shouldn't guess 90s because you already, you're a closest.
Let's go with more.
Your guts tell you.
61.
Kira's the closest at 69.
Oh.
Yeah.
Good job, Kira.
Nice job.
Nicely done.
All right.
I'd say that's an appropriate score.
Yeah.

have to give them their special time.
The teacher from Natso Raven,
remember we had a question, what was the teacher's name
from Natsarra? Roderiguez. She's in hacks.

I've seen her in a lot of things.
I think she placed Palsafina. I'm always like that's a teacher from Natsau Raven.
All right. All right.
Rosie, do you have any idea?
I would have said bowtie, but I don't know.
It's a bowtie like somebody you can be famous for wearing.

Yes.
Her name was Goldie.

The world's most refreshing podcast.
Yes.
All right, everyone, we are here with a very special guest.
We are joined by Johnny Bananas.
It has been quite some time since we've had Johnny on the show.
So welcome back.
Thanks for having me, guys.
I thought you forgot all about me.
No, our best friend.
Yeah.
Right?
I know.
We helped each other out.
Yeah.
In the escape room.
Yes, you guys got.
Got me out of that fucking subway car.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, I think, you know, they say absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Yes.
It's been a while.
And so we miss you guys.
We miss you.
And we're happy to have you here.
The challenge is back.
We're super excited about that.
You're back on the challenge, which then gives us a reason to watch.
Yep.
Because you messaged me the other day and you were like,
yo, if you ever get a second from not watching The Bachelor, the challenge is back on soon and I'm on it.
Well, you guys better do like the whole thing where you, like, lay in bed and, like, watch it.
And like, you know, like, the whole.
We want the whole rigmarole, okay?
The thing with the challenge is we can do that.
We can lay in bed and watch it,
whereas like the bachelor becomes now,
the bachelor is part of the job.
Well, we're laying in bed both times.
That is true.
The mattress firm.
Shout out of mattress firm.
Yeah.
But are you excited to be back on the challenge?
I am.
Listen, I'm excited.
I'm apprehensive.
I'm a little nervous.
I mean, that's what's weird about it is like,
even though it's like I've done it for as long as I have when you step away.
There's going to be a lot of new,
I mean,
there's a lot of new faces.
There's a lot of people who have,
who've kind of filled in the voice.
that I left when I, you know, when I took my hiatus.
So I honestly, this is the first time going in in a long time when I don't really know
how I'm going to be received.
Why, why did you want to go back?
You left on a high note.
I know.
Listen, because it's like.
It's addicting.
It's, it's, you know what it is?
It's almost become like a part of, I mean, I've been doing it for so long.
It's almost become like a part of my life.
And for better or for worse, it's like, it's like the longest, uh,
you know, dysfunctional, emotionally abusive relationship I've ever been in.
And, uh, but there's also a lot of perks that go along with it.
And I mean, I've done, I've had some of the most amazing experiences in my life on this show.
And I've, um, and I miss the competition.
I miss the competition.
I miss, uh, mixing it up on on TV.
It's, and it's, you know, I want to see going back if I still have what it takes to compete at a
level.
Um, and, and you just, you just never know until you, until you check back in.
If, let's, let's.
hypothetically, if you keep winning, will you just keep playing forever?
Yes.
Okay.
Yes, absolutely.
If you start losing, will you actually hang it up or will you keep playing forever?
It depends on how I lose.
Okay, okay.
It depends on how.
Here's the thing.
If I'm showing up and like I just can't hack it and like I just don't have the chops
anymore, whether it's mentally or physically, there's a few people that I definitely
think should have taken that road.
Definitely.
But I still feel like I can compete at a very high level.
Listen, I like to make comparisons to myself and Tom Brady because he is the Johnny Bananas of the NFL.
I was going to make that comparison, but then I did not want to make your head bigger.
Yeah.
With this hair?
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
Got a lot of room to expand.
Yeah.
But no, I look at him and it's like, dude, this guy's 45 years old and he, because he takes care of himself and because he takes the game seriously,
because he trains in the off season and because, you know, he's, you know, he's, you.
you know, he focuses so much on it.
I mean, he's still able to, you know, run circles around, you know, guys in his same position.
I see it the same way.
It's like I take...
But what about those personal relationships, John?
I know.
I get it.
But you know what?
You have to make sacrifices.
As did he.
Didn't Giselle just leave him because he checked back?
Oh, okay.
There's some rumors.
That's what I'm saying.
Well, I don't think officially, but there's rumors that things were a little cold between them.
The way that I look at it is as of now, I'm not saying this forever.
You know, the challenge and not.
just the challenge, but just like my career, being on TV and being in the entertainment industry,
that's where I got to focus a lot of my attention on. And unfortunately, because of the amount
that I travel and because of, you know, just the demands of my schedule, it's difficult to
try and hold down a relationship and, you know, try and, you know, feed the beast at the same time. So,
and it sucks. But it's, it's just part of, it's just, I know what I signed up for. And, you know,
I'm just not ready, I guess, to, you know, to change, to change the, the trajectory I'm on right now.
Maybe someday.
What's the saying?
Zebras, zebras don't change your stripes.
Don't lose their stripes.
Don't lose their stripes, whatever.
That was tigers.
Tigers?
I have no idea.
Tigers don't change their stripes.
No one.
They all have stripes.
Yeah, whatever.
One of those animals.
One of those animals.
Yeah, it's one of them.
This season is the first time you guys got to pick partners.
Yes.
Did you have any idea
that you wanted to go with Nani
Or like was that
What went into that?
Okay, so they asked us before
The season to give them a list
Of female friends
Ride or dies
So originally
It was
It said Reifran
Nani
But they said you guys were busy
Yes
They're like we cannot
Yeah
They can't be away from the chicks
In the office podcast for that long
They even got this fancy sign
You guys moved the office
You guys used to be over there.
Yeah, well, that's like the general podcast.
And we made this one, but we're going to, don't worry, we're getting a bigger one.
I love what you guys done with the place.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Thank you.
You do need a bigger room because my head barely fits in this.
Yeah, we're working on it.
We have to.
It's like, it's cozy.
It's very cozy.
It's cozy until it becomes claustrophobic and like sweaty.
I got to say you guys keep your office a lot nicer than the KFC radio guys.
Well, they don't have enough room.
Like, they have so much.
Their room is so big that they have, it can, it just gets so dirty.
When we get a bigger room, hours will become...
No, I'm going to keep that thing so nice.
But other than that...
Yeah, because I'm like climbing to get out of here.
You know what I mean?
Like, you're going to like step over people.
There's a lot going on.
Yeah, it takes up a lot of space.
No, so we had to basically submit a list of females in our life that we...
And they wanted...
They actually wanted like a list of like family...
Like my siblings.
I'm like, okay, my sister is not happening.
One of my sisters has eight kids
And the other one is two
And she's still breastfeeding
So that's not happening
And even if they didn't have kids
I would never
In a million years
Bring one of my sisters
Into this insane asylum
So they're like
What about relationships?
You dating anyone?
I'm like are you guys psychotic?
Like there's no shot
That I'm gonna bring
Not that I was at the time
But like there's no way
I was gonna bring a relationship
In this world either
Like why would I do that?
Just so that they could break it up
Exactly
And then I was thinking
I was like
If I'm dating a girl and she's like got a great personality.
I bring her on the show, we break up and then they keep casting her to come back.
Yeah, because she's so good.
Yeah, I'd be like, well, I'd be really be shooting myself in the foot.
So then I'm like, listen, we're going to stick to females from the show who I'm friends with.
So I submitted them a list of names and out of them, you know, Nani's the one that they went with.
She was obviously really close to the top my list because, you know, me and Nani, I think out of all of the pairs on the show,
Nani and I, other than, you know, people who are siblings,
have had the longest relationship in the house.
And our relationship has run all ends of the spectrum.
We, you know, we were obviously friends, you know,
that we were romantically involved for a period of time,
and we just realized that it's like we're just, you know, better as friends.
And she's honestly one of the closest people I have in my life.
And she's been on a lot of seasons of the challenge.
She's gotten really close to winning,
and she just hasn't been able to, you know,
make it across the finish line and finish the drill.
So, you know, hopefully this is this is going to be her season with me.
I remember people rooting pretty heavily for you too romantically.
Yeah.
Me being one of them.
But I was like, like, I had watched them.
But you were watching, they to get, they already happened.
Like I was watching them years past.
And I was like, damn.
I know.
They would be good together.
And listen.
And there was a period of time when, you know, when our lives were different.
Things, you know, worked a different way.
but I think we both realized that like as time went on, it was like we are just, we were just better
off. I mean, I always knew she was someone I was going to have in my life for a long time.
I just didn't know what capacity it was going to be. And I think we both realized that we were just,
we're just better off as friends. And I can honestly say there are very few females that I have in
my life that that I have been, I guess, romantically involved with in the past. And now I'm just like super tight with them.
Would you consider her an X?
I wouldn't say an X because we never like, I would like, we never like had like a.
relationship relationship.
When you put that list together, I'm sure MTV would also be like, maybe throw some
X's on there.
Well, we were on a show called X's.
Yeah.
We were.
There's some interesting dynamics with this cast that I'm intrigued to see how.
There are some very interesting dynamics with this cast.
Tori.
Yeah.
No, I'm very...
Dude, that shit is...
This season has my attention.
I will say the challenge is up and down with me.
Like some...
I will be with the cast.
is what drags me in.
So like you guys being back,
I'm like, I will watch.
You need those people because some of the new people,
you definitely,
some you really like and they make their way on the show
and they stay and there's been a lot of those last few years.
But then there's been a few.
But then there's some where it's like,
they're bringing people from like love violent
and like random stuff.
Or it's like, this isn't a fit.
This doesn't make sense.
Because you guys were,
when the challenge first started it,
it was a time where social media wasn't so big.
And so like everything was kind of raw.
that was happening.
Yep.
And now people do things for that moment,
like that they know.
I also have never watched Big Brother.
Like,
I just have never watched Big Brother.
And Big Brother is such a major element to this show now
that it's like,
do I have to start watching Big Brother
to like pay attention to what's happening on the challenge?
I didn't either.
And I kind of had to start
and I started watching Survivor for the same reason.
Just to like understand that because they play such a different game.
Yeah.
And I'm doing a podcast now as well.
I'd love to have you guys on.
Yeah.
It's called Death.
taxes and bananas. It's all challenged stuff. So, I mean,
you guys, now that you're watching this season,
it'd be great to have you guys on. I do
always watch for the record. I do watch.
I don't. I watch when I'm interested in the cast.
I mean, and I do too.
Ria got me hooked and then
I'd come in and be like, dude, are you watching?
You'd be like, no. I'm like, I'm watching.
It depends on the season. It does depend on the season. I haven't been on a while.
That's why she can't watch. That's why I know. I'm watching.
Being dead serious, too. I am, and now
I will watch. And I know my family will too.
They better.
Oh, the Chiff.
Love Johnny bananas.
Big bananas fans.
Better be in front of their TV every week,
drinking wine and eating salami.
But no, so.
So on my podcast, though,
we just did the whole challenge USA,
the one that was on CBS,
which, you know, some people liked it.
Some people didn't.
But there was no challenge people on there
and it kind of goes to the point that you were making
where it's like it's so difficult,
it's like there is,
there's a certain way,
to play the game and to move throughout the house
and to carry yourself and to
strategize and like whatever that you need to have people
there that know how to play the game in order for the game to be played right
yeah yeah and the problem is when you put a bunch of people who yeah they've been on all these other
shows Survivor Big Brother Love Island amazing race
you give them you put them in the same environment you have the same host you have the same
rules you have the same format but it's just you get a different result
because you don't have the people there that are kind of like
showing them the ropes and how the game's supposed to be played.
So after watching, obviously, the challenge USA, I did.
I went back and I started before I had guests on it because big brother people and
survivor people just play a completely different game.
The way they move through the house, the way they strategize, the way they, you know,
it's just completely different.
So I just wanted to kind of get an idea of what makes them tick.
And, you know, I feel like, I feel like it's helped my game out a little bit because I
understand kind of now how those games go, which are completely.
different than John. Now, in past seasons,
it was like a lot of times the OGs versus the new people would come in
and it was very apparent that the OGs were always like, where are the OGs? You guys are
new? You need to respect us. Do you think that has changed a little bit now? Because
kids are not really listening to authority. Like they're like, you know what I mean?
Like they're like, fuck you. I don't really care. And also, they're on multiple seasons now.
And also, they're on different shows. And so they're like, I have followers from a different show.
I don't care.
That's part of it.
Exactly.
That's the big issue is, dude, we used to, when, we used to be 75% of the cast, 80% of the cast.
We're like people who have been there, done that, been around the block.
But now, because we don't have, I mean, a lot of, a lot of the older cast are moving on.
We don't have the real world, you know, to pull from or even really any MTV shows.
At least before we had like, are you the one?
Right, right, right.
We got some really good cast members from R.
Yeah.
We don't even have that anymore.
So we're forced now
Those early seasons have already the one we're so
Amazing
We got some great cast
Devin Tori Nelson
Like we got some solid cast members from there
And now it's like
Now the bullpen is like big brother
You know
So it's like
So when you go into a house now
And especially you'll see on this season
Like dude the first episode is
In the first few episodes
Very very very light in the veteran department
So you have a bunch of these new kids
That I've never played the game before
Trying to like play
And like, I remember, like, after I showed up, not just the cast, but even like members of production were like, thank fucking God.
Yeah.
Because like this was literally watching like the blind lead.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you just, you just need that, man.
It's like, big head.
They probably don't even watch the show before they go on.
They like think that they know.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
They just go on.
They're like, I have followers.
So like, yeah.
Yeah.
I should be on this show.
Dude.
And it's changed so much over the years in that regard.
Because I remember, and I've said this before, like in interviews and stuff, we're like, we get one 10 minute phone call home a week.
right if I take the call which I usually don't because I just like to stay in like the challenge space
and I almost don't want distractions from the outside world but if I do take a call it's like my family
yeah like is everyone okay yeah everyone alive my bills getting but that sort of thing there's kids
who will literally come on and they'll use their 10 minute phone call to like call whoever's
running their posting for them and be like how are my followers doing have you been posted I'm like
really you know one call home like not like are my animals still alive is the family okay like
Make sure everyone's health is in check.
Has my carbon repossessed?
It's like, no, is my Instagram okay?
It's like, fuck, man.
Oh my God, that is nuts.
I never even thought about that.
Landscape has changed.
Yeah, that is crazy.
It really has.
So I feel like your name has always been thrown around as like if they were going to bring back like a celebrity bachelor, like a crossover, like a crossover, like, a giant banana is the bachelor or something like that.
And like I saw rumors online.
Uh-huh.
Do you think there could ever be a crossover of you into the Bachelor universe?
But you also said you weren't ready for a relationship, so.
If there ever was, well, listen, you know, relationships go?
You're never ready for a relationship.
I've always said...
And they just appear in in life.
I've always felt like a real...
The relationships that I've been in that have been the ones that have...
Are the ones that, like, I wasn't ready.
I wasn't necessarily looking for.
And it just happens.
You're like, holy shit, where'd you come from?
But, I mean, listen, I've...
I wouldn't be the bachelor.
I'd be the binatchler, first of all.
Get your vernacular, correct?
That's a...
That's a little bit of a tongue twister.
I'm really happy you're still going with that.
You know what I mean?
Like in any way that you could throw bananas and you're doing it.
No, so I mean, listen, I think if there was, if there was, because I mean, listen, like I'm, I, my parents too have given up at this point with me.
They're like, are you ever going to bring a nice girl home?
I'm like, yeah, I'll bring a few nice girls home.
Come on.
But yeah, I think if there was any, if there was any chance for me to finally settle down, it would have to, it would have to be if I went on a show.
show where I was kind of like forced into it you know what I mean and I think that would be probably
the right the correct format so do you think there's any chance of that of what like that ever
actually happening I don't know I mean I feel like MTV could just make that show for you no I wouldn't
I wouldn't know because you don't want to do it I'm going to do it I'm going to do it the right way
you want it on network television yeah um but I mean listen there's there's a there's a there's a
possibility. You know, there's something, there's, there's a possibility out there. I mean, you know,
there has been, you said that it is difficult for there to be like a crossover between, but
maybe on TV, but there has been potentially crossovers off television in my past.
Well, that's, I mean, that definitely makes sense. Yeah. Well, everybody, if all the reality TV
people hang out. Yeah. You're at the same events. You're meeting the same people. Yeah. And now with like,
When the way they do, especially your show, it's just all people from all different shows.
So it's everybody hanging out together.
So are you implying that you were involved with a contestant on the show?
I'm not implying anything.
What are you implying?
That he was implying.
I was implying.
I was not.
I just said that there's a better likelihood of things happening off the screen than on.
So there could be a potential crossover in off-screen life between a challenge.
and somebody who was a contestant on an ABC show.
You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen.
I saw a clip where you sued HBO for...
Stealing my name.
Yes.
Can you explain that to me because I'm a huge entourage fan, so is frame.
Well, yes, I will.
Explain, like, when was the...
Was there a real crossover?
Like, I was trying to figure out the timeline in my head.
There wasn't a crossover.
Here's...
Listen.
Well, you did it years later, right?
No.
Oh, no.
No, it was right after the, here's the problem.
I waited a little bit too long to file my suit.
Okay.
But you were Johnny Bananas.
Yes.
Like very, yes, because that's what I'm thinking of.
Like, you were established Johnny Bananas.
And then.
I came, I was using the nickname Johnny Bananas way before entourage even existed as a show.
All right.
So I don't know what it was.
Season 5, season, it was actually the last season they did of entourage.
Season 8.
Season 8.
Johnny Drama got a, got a,
spin-off show or a character that they started calling Johnny Bananas.
Yes.
The cartoon monkey.
Yes.
With Andrew Dice Clay.
Yes, exactly.
And a friend of mine, Leonard, who at the time was in law school,
listen, in interest of full disclosure...
So it's Leonard's fault.
In interest of full disclosure, I didn't watch an entourage back in the day.
I didn't.
You know why?
Because, like, I grew up in Southern California.
I was in L.A. a lot.
And, like, that group of guys reminded me of every, like, douchebag group of
of like Hollywood fucking assholes that were like in that scene.
You know what I mean?
And listen, I understand these guys are all like playing a role.
And since then, like I've obviously, you know, met a lot of them and like we're like
workshop.
I mean, I did a, I actually did a golf tournament with Johnny Drama.
So, you know, we're cool, I think.
But, um, uh, so my friend Leonard hits me up and goes, dude, they're using your name on
entourage.
He goes, you could sue for defamation.
And he's like, I'm learning about this in law school right now.
Oh my God.
He's like, here's my, this was Leonard's big break.
Yeah, it was.
The defamation, though.
He goes, yeah.
It wasn't like they were, well, continue.
So he goes, let me put you in touch with this attorney named Stephanie Ovadier, who actually
represented Lindsay Lohan in an e-trade suit.
Oh.
Do you remember years ago there was the e-trade commercials with the babies?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you remember there was one where the baby is like, oh, that's my, uh, Lindsay, the
milkaholic implying that Lindsay was the blonde baby.
She pops out and spills a bunch of milk.
Lindsay Lohan actually sued
E-Trade for defamation of character,
saying that Lindsay is synonymous with Lindsay Lohan.
It's like Madonna is with Madonna.
She won like a shit ton of money.
So he put me in touch with this same attorney.
So she's like, you definitely have a case.
We're going to file this blah, blah, blah.
So we filed the suit in New York,
which was the big mistake.
We should have filed in L.A.
We filed it in New York.
and basically citing defamation.
So the reason it was defamation is because defamation doesn't necessarily mean that you're,
that you're being like your character's being insulted.
You could be defamed in other ways.
So like this was our, it's like say because at the time I was doing a lot of like appearances,
bars, clubs, like whatever.
If they advertise Johnny Bananas is going to show up.
You're confusing the public.
So which Johnny Banana is going to show up?
If I show up, people were expecting Kevin Dillon.
If he shows up there, they're expecting.
me. Yeah. So we're like, this has the, this has the potential to create confusion. Right. Is your name
trademarked? So here's the thing. I took one entertainment law. So here's the thing is, is, is in the
public eye, there's, and this is what we sued, it's called the right to publicity. So because I was,
and still am, most, like the person most known for the name Johnny Bananas. Correct. If I,
if I heard your real full name, like, I would be like, I don't know who that is. John Amadeus Diva.
Yeah, exactly.
So in the realm of the entertainment industry and in the public, I basically own that name.
Yeah.
So HBO didn't argue that.
They didn't argue any of the merits.
They didn't argue defamation.
Nothing.
All that they argued was that the statute of limitations for defamation was 12 months, which it was.
And we filed our suit 13 months after.
But here's where we got screwed was they argued that it should have.
been the first time they used in that's when the clock starts when they used it yeah for the first time
we're arguing like no it should have reset every time they used it on the show so it should have went all
up to the other end of the season but the judge ruled in their favor so i got my case thrown out
damn so did they basically admit that they took some they didn't have to they didn't have to but here's
how i know you want to know how i know this is this here's a little tea for you mark walberg who's the
executive producer, huge challenge fan.
Here's how I know this.
Diem, love you, Dee.
She interviewed Mark Wahlberg years ago.
This is during, she was hosting a show for a while.
She interviewed Mark Wahlberg about the challenge.
He admitted what a massive challenge fan he was.
So you're telling me that in these meetings that they were having,
these production meetings,
that when the nickname Johnny Bananas was thrown around,
as Kevin Dillon's not one person in the room
knew that there was already somebody out there
by the name Johnny Bananas
especially the executive producer
who watches the challenge.
No, yeah, I could see that.
I could definitely see.
It's a recognizable name.
It is.
Well, those guys, they're HBO, Mark Wahlberg.
Their heads are big enough
or they're like, we can do it everyone.
Yeah, they're like, oh, let's just giant
and a perfect nickname.
He'll never know.
Yeah.
And also, I knew the name Johnny Bananas
before I even watched the challenge
because I just feel like your name is just
it's Johnny Bananas.
Yeah.
Just like a normal.
There was actually a mobster back in the name named Johnny Bananas.
But you have now.
Taking it from him.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've probably killed more people than him too.
On the challenge.
On the,
yes.
Respectably.
Exactly.
Yes.
So,
yeah.
So that was my,
that was my story of the HBO lawsuit that.
Yeah.
But had we filed this?
So here's the problem is like New York's different.
Like L.A. is much more sympathetic
towards people in the entertainment industry.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Whereas New York,
it's like,
There's a judge.
HBO's,
you know,
based here.
It was probably like,
yeah,
we're going to ruin your guys
his favor.
So,
yeah.
I actually was going to do,
it's funny,
because then after TMZ did a store,
like they caught me outside a restaurant after,
and they kind of did a story on it and kind of made fun of me for doing it.
And then they interviewed Kevin Connolly on like a red carpet.
He like,
he's like,
fuck this bananas guy.
Who's fucking is?
All this shit.
So then before I ended up doing my podcast on Spotify,
I was actually going to do it on Kevin Connolly's,
yeah.
Podcast.
network, yeah.
And I was going to be a weird call
because I don't know if this guy even knows
and I remember asking him about it.
He goes, nah man, it's all good.
I'm over that.
Like, I was just like, you know, a moment that I had.
You know what I actually wanted?
To be honest, I wouldn't even sued.
You know what it would have been a better way
to resolve this?
Bring me on the fucking show.
Yeah, all you want it was a part.
Yes.
I was like, dude, if they're still filming
entourage, bring me on.
Yeah.
And then I can argue.
It was the last season.
It was the last season.
You could have been in the movie.
The movie.
The movie, Johnny Bananas was in the movie?
No, it wasn't.
Was it?
I'm pretty sure
he was mentioned.
Johnny Bananas?
I'm pretty sure.
I don't...
Call my lawyer.
I'm pretty sure...
How long it was it?
Was this movie out more than 12 months ago?
Years ago, yeah.
I'm pretty sure it was mentioned in the beginning of the movie.
I have not watched the entourage.
Could have sued them again.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
I don't know enough about the entourage movie.
Why didn't you guys call me?
This was a year now.
We've known each other for years.
No, no.
This movie came out in one year, 2015.
Okay, yeah, that's a long time ago.
I hope somebody uses
chicks in the office and moving, I'm not going to tell you.
Well, listen, Barth will take that up
with them and they'll get sued.
We got a word. Chicks in the office is trademark.
We got big company, big company lawyers
that handle that for us.
But that would have been a cool way to resolve it. I could have went on.
I could argue with them. That would have been.
That would have been funny. That would have been funny.
But it's actually. It would have been a funny episode.
Yeah, it would have been a very funny episode.
Like, oh, this guy from the challenge
is mad. We're using his name.
Yeah. Would have been a good episode.
So I actually, and like I said, so I actually ran into Kevin Dillon at a
cheesy Christmas sweatshirt.
Andre Reid, the Hall of Famer from the Bills,
puts on a cheesy Christmas sweatshirt,
golf tournament every year in San Diego.
So I went, like, I think it was last year or two years ago,
and Kevin Dillon was there,
and we didn't really cross past during the tournament.
We were at the same hotel.
So we all went to, like, I don't have cigars and fucking whiskey
wherever at the end of the night.
I walked out to him.
I was like, yo, man, it's the real Johnny Bananas.
And he rolled it, like, he didn't really acknowledge me,
but I couldn't tell if it's because he didn't get, like,
that it was me saying it
They're like this man
He just won't let it fucking go
We don't care that you were Johnny bananas
Well it actually
Not to beat a dead horse
But there was supposed to be a spin-off cartoon
On Entourage
Or no after entourage
Called Johnny's Bananas
And they didn't move forward with that
Because of the lawsuit that I did so
Okay so you had a little win there
A little win there
All right I'm glad
Sorry Kev
I'm glad you probably
You killed his spin off
Yeah you killed his career
I'm sorry Ken
You killed his
He's doing all right.
Yeah, I think he's going to be all right.
Johnny, thank you so much for coming in.
We're so happy to have you anytime.
It's been real.
We're very excited for this season of the challenge.
Comes back Wednesday, October 12th.
I will be watching.
I promise.
I will be watching on Wednesday nights.
I'm free on Wednesday nights.
Who are the, I want to hear just like,
because we know who the cast is,
who are the pairings that you're worried about
and who are you like, they don't stay on a chance.
Okay.
Pairings that I'm worried about.
Let's see.
Devin and Tori.
because me and Devin have obviously never gotten along.
I really like that.
I'm a Devin fan.
I really like Devin.
I really like you.
I really like both of you.
Well, you guys are going to be shocked by what transpires this season between him and
my.
Let's see.
There's, I mean, there's some really good rookie teams that, okay, Turbo's back.
Okay.
Well, Turbo's carry.
We all know that guy's an absolute maniac.
I can't wait to see who he brings along with him.
Let's see.
You know, again, there's some new teams.
Johnny and Raven.
There's a guy named Johnny who comes in.
I mean, the guy's like an Olympic track sprinter.
Probably.
Well, that's why I'm bananas now.
There's this dude named Horacio.
Oh.
All right. Kid, you guys are going to fall in love with this guy.
I actually fell in love with him.
He sounds.
23 years old, professional soccer player.
Kid is a fuck.
I was actually hoping before the season because they showed like who might be on.
I see a video this guy doing like that, I don't know,
parkour,
and I'm like,
we're going to have to kill this guy.
Like,
we're going to have to Tanya Harding this guy.
Like,
night one,
because this is going to be a problem.
And then,
yeah,
and then there's Fessi's coming back.
He's bringing a partner named Mariah,
who I may or may not
partner up with at some point during the season two.
So,
I mean, listen,
a lot of partnerships going on here.
So there's always something.
There's always something going on in the challenge house.
Can't wait.
I'm very excited.
It's going to be good.
Everyone, tune in.
We will be watching.
You better be from your sleep number bed.
