On Thanksgiving Day, 1999,
five-year-old Cuban boy, Elianian Gonzalez was found off the coast of Florida.
And the question was, should the boy go back to his father in Cuba?
Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home, and he wanted to take his son with him.
Or stay with his relatives in Miami?
Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom. Listen to Chess Peace, the Elian Gonzalez story on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Las Culturistas calling.
It's 9 a.m.
Girl, this is the morning show.
This is the morning show.
Yeah. I feel like I'm Bradley. I love the morning show yeah i feel like i'm bradley i'm chris right now you feel like chris honey i feel like chris every day of my life the finale is
tomorrow i can't wait what's gonna happen with chris you know i guess she she got the jennifer
aniston reese for the spoon treatment where she disappeared for a full two episodes or whatever
and then came back with a vengeance.
I love that it's the Jennifer Aniston Reese Witherspoon treatment.
I'm referring to the fact that they just won't be in episodes.
Sorry, the Jennifer Aniston Reese Witherspoon treatment
is that you get to not be in every episode
and you also get paid an EP salary.
Exactly, exactly.
Here's what I'll say.
I like seeing that the girls were finally in a scene together and to see if they
had some conflict and this last episode by the way talk about this episode and by the way so when i
say this last episode i mean 309 the ninth episode because now as of this episode being out the
finale will be out so look for reactions for that Yeah. But the ninth episode of the show,
I texted Bo and I'm like,
I don't know what happened,
but this show suddenly became a show prestige TV in the way that it always
thinks it is sometimes.
But this,
this episode was such a knockdown drag out.
Like you said,
it finally works.
I guess I always feel it works,
but this all of a sudden was like
every scene had energy motion you realize everything they've been putting in there like
it's working out suddenly i found myself eating my hat i think these third graders are in college
these third graders are in college and they know that you need to get to episode nine in a season for it to really pick up.
The second to last episode needs to finally be the thing that makes you go, yes.
The second to last episode needs to go hard.
Wait, I'm also just noticing right now, you have, I'm sitting here next to Tom Selleck.
Oh, yeah.
The way that your mustache is, this is the most I've ever seen it grow in.
It's so, I describe it as a paltry mustache.
It's paltry, girl.
But I think I'm kind of into it.
I think it's a vibe.
But it has to go for professional reasons.
I just, I had the week off.
I had the week off and I went, let me just try this girl.
Yeah.
Well, it's definitely more grown in than I've ever seen it.
I just, I can't do.
You really step into the mustache. Yeeshesh i need to get back there i think
mustache for christmas what's is there any is i think i'm gonna start growing my stuff out so
maybe this is a little bit of a spoiler but i got put into drag by trixie mattel for an upcoming
youtube collaboration that we're doing this did i show you you didn't show me you said that you did
a collab with Trixie.
I'm going to show you
me in drag right now.
I'm not going to say exactly
what the fantasy
we were going for was,
but I am going to say that
I went over to Trixie's
YouTube studio
and basically, girl,
that's why I'm showing Bowen.
Oh, I want to say
what this is so badly.
I mean, I can't.
We can say.
No, no, no.
It's such a spoiler.
No, this is main Dermat.
Can you believe?
That is 10 out of 10.
A plus.
I am a gog.
A ghast.
Not a ghast.
I'm a gog.
He's a ghast and a gog.
Yeah.
I had the best time with Trixie, but here's the thing about drag.
And I don't know why I thought I could kind of get
away with this, but I was like, I can go over
there and have some stubble. And I go over
to Trixie's studio, she looks at me and she goes,
well, girl, you need to shave.
And I was like, no, but can't you, you know?
She goes, can I what?
Yeah, what did you think she could do?
I don't know. I just thought like, I thought
on Drag Race, like sometimes like you do see some
of the girls with stubble
and then they go in their fantasy
and they beat their face
and like it kind of disappears.
I think that as I'm saying this.
I think they just don't show them shaving
because they need to be over a sink.
You know what I mean?
Girl, this is how you know
my co-host is in the television industry.
He knows the movie magic.
Girl, don't even.
Speaking of TV magic,
what do you think made it work in three Oh nine of the morning?
I'm going to tell you this every single scene.
It was like,
well,
first of all,
the hat is coming off to Reese.
You think Reese?
Listen,
my takeaway,
I'm sorry.
I love Reese down,
but my takeaway was finally Juliana gets to eat. Well was finally, Juliana gets to eat.
Well, they gave Juliana something to do.
Yes.
And what I've realized is like, wow.
So basically like, okay, so to give a little bit of what's going on,
we famously know Bradley Jackson went to the insurrection to report on the ground
and she wore a hat over her gorgeous blonde naturally blonde i can't say
enough naturally blonde bradley jackson hair even though she's a redhead she finds her brother
attacking a police officer she just so happens to be rolling her iphone on it and they have a
moment where she basically has caught her brother as an insurrectionist a violent insurrectionist
assaulting a police officer certainly he, he should go to prison,
but she deletes the footage,
thereby invalidating her
as a journalist, basically.
So, Corey, a.k.a. Billy Crudup,
who is, to this day,
giving one of the craziest
performances on television.
Well, he's so, like,
I love him.
I love that his choice
for this character is
just caricature
of TV, exactly. Yeah. Like, talking
in a way that is even more... Like, I thought
Succession became a parody of itself
sort of by the end. Mm-hmm.
The way that these characters talked and these, like, you know,
oh, you're doing a vulture
stab. Like, they would just make up terms,
like, business terms that you'd never heard. It was an animal.
Like, the business terms on Succession were always
animal verb. Yes. Bear hug,ion were always animal verb, bear hug,
vulture stab, whatever.
It's a lion crawl.
Yeah, lion crawl, whatever.
Sorry to go on that tangent, but now Billy, I think,
is so grotesquely,
cartoonishly a TV exec,
evil businessman guy.
And I kind of think that it works.
It finally works.
It's working more and more.
This is an Emmy winning performance.
Yes.
He is playing network exec or head of this company,
if it were Patrick Bateman.
Yes.
And that is really perfect.
But in this episode, he fully sort of like starts to break down.
Greta Lee is popping off. So basically, anyway, what you need to know is that Billy Crudup,
a.k.a. Patrick Bateman, Psycho
Network exec, is in love with
Bradley Jackson, and he
allowed them to delete this footage.
So he said, I don't ever want to fucking
talk about this again. Somehow
Julianna Margulies gets to typing
and she finds
out the whole thing that Bradley
has done this. The way she finds out
I think is actually well
done because they put it together
in a way that made sense. It calls back to the leak
from earlier in the season. Yes.
It's actually all sequenced perfectly.
She finds out in an organic way
that I think, you know what they did?
Well, they did
interface. They did like person
using technology. Yeah.
Oh, this is what you've been looking for
like her searching through the texts and the emails between bradley and cory to her finding
out that how was that the insurrection i'm like and that was actually well and that bradley i was
like that was actually really well done it was very well done the discovery and i know what
you're saying so bowen has famously been like I don't like the way interaction with social media,
texting, it's not reflected correctly in media.
This you're saying was maybe the first time
in television history you've seen someone interact with,
first of all, the iMessage app on a MacBook.
Which everyone is doing.
Everyone is texting on computers. It's actually real culture number is doing everyone is texting on computers it's actually real culture
number 14 everyone is texting on computers i mean and then juliana and reese have this scene
wonderful scene where reese comes home to juliana they are lesbian lovers and juliana basically
puts it to her like i can no longer respect respect you. I don't love you anymore.
How do you sit in that chair?
How do you sit in that chair?
And Reese has this moment
where she goes to hug
Juliana Margulies
and Juliana goes,
stay away from me.
And Reese goes,
okay.
And then she realizes
that Juliana's right
and she calms herself down
with a second okay
and it sounds like this.
Okay. It got mad. and I was just like this is so present and dropped in and Julianna looks at
Reese and mind you these characters have had they've been together on the show but they've had
almost no chemistry Julianna goes I thought we'd grow old together and i believed i believed it a hundred percent
there was no question in my mind i was watching the downfall of television's greatest couple i
don't even know what to say thousand percent television's greatest couple that did not seem
at all believable until its final moment you don't know what you got till it's gone period
joni mitch Mitchell was right.
And to speak of our Joni Mitchell,
they are never, ever getting back together.
Oh, my God.
And so that was just one scene of so many.
Oh, then really spoiler alert for 309.
And I can't tell you, like,
if you're going to get into it,
you got to get into it because the finale is out now.
I am so excited for whatever this is going to be because
i heard it's so crazy and honestly what were the words that were said to you i heard craziest
moment in television history are you serious well okay so i mean it will not be the case but i did
hear that it's the craziest thing the show has ever done which i also heard on the ground in
bravo con yes oh my god about about whatever happens at the end of salt lake city housewives which I also heard on the ground in BravoCon. Yes. Oh my God.
About whatever happens at the end of Salt Lake City Housewives.
Right.
And you had alluded to this over text.
And I'm really curious.
We can't really discuss it on this show.
I don't know because literally,
so someone goes,
someone at BravoCon,
it was,
which I'll get into because it was truly like more Disney World than Disney World to be honest with
you. I was only there for two hours
and most of it I was working, but I was looking
around and I was like, God, I need
to come back here and just walk around. I didn't
get the chance to, but they did an
amazing job. Like if you love Bravo, walking
around and just seeing like
the museums of props from like
everything that they've done.
But on the ground,
like people were talking about,
they're like,
do you know what happens at the end of Salt Lake?
Do you know what happens at the end of Salt Lake?
This was like scuttlebutt at the con.
It has to do with whatever phone call it is that Heather gets.
Right.
And I think I can surmise that it has to do with Monica.
Monica Garcia.
Monica Garcia,
the legend.
Something about the mom.
I don't know if it's the mom. I don't know if it has to do with Monica. Monica Garcia. Monica Garcia, the legend. Something about the mom. I don't know if it's the mom.
I don't know if it has to do with Jen Shah,
but it's something that affects all of them
in a way that it's like-
Makes Heather go,
are you serious?
She goes, how could she do this to us?
Go, go, go away.
No, guys, guys, guys, guys.
But apparently it's that insane.
But just to loop it back bradley jackson resigns
from the uba evening news and she breaks down while she's resigning on television and no one
knows why she's doing it and i said you better propel us into the finale meanwhile john ham is
obviously the most evil person in the world j Jennifer Aniston is what? Digmatized.
We are seeing digmatization.
Like we've never seen it on screen before. I don't think I've seen digmatization
since Adam and Hannah on Girls.
We need to, at some point, perform the scene,
which is Bradley Jackson telling Alex Levy
that she's concerned about whether or not
she can be objective about Jon Hamm.
Because Jennifer Aniston's like, well, basically...
Okay, so again, this is the craziest shit that's ever gone on.
Jon Hamm, who's just bought UBA, wants to now sell the company.
And he's basically taking Alex as his partner and starting a new network.
So he goes, bring whoever you want, bring Bradley.
So she goes
you have to come with me to this new company and bradley jackson's energy is basically like
um okay like for sure yeah but like are you sure you trust this guy i heard he's bad news
he's evil alex and then jennifer aniston does her whole thing. Oh, oh, wow. Oh, okay.
Oh, so you, oh, I see.
Now, you're unbelievable.
And Bradley's like, Alex, like, what?
Like, what are you doing?
Like, why are you being like this?
Like, can you trust him?
Are you stigmatized?
And they have this whole, like, sort of low stakes, but high stakes, like, fight. It was amazing.
It's Elva. Yes's... It was amazing. It's Elphaba.
Yes!
Why can't you just stay calm for once?
Oh my god!
And we are literally about to see one of them you think about like this character you know what they did the third graders really grew up and went to college i'm telling you because they said at the beginning of the year what is the central
tenant of these characters and how can we challenge them and bradley jackson's central
tenant is i am first and foremost a journalist i am a truth teller and for her to be confronted
with the fact that when she was put in a position calls her yes yeah kelly clarkson called bradley
jackson a truth teller because remember kelly Kelly Clarkson's also a character on The Morning Show as herself.
In this timeline, Kelly Clarkson is a Kelly Clarkson-level artist.
Yeah.
And I think that we're to believe that if someone like Kelly Clarkson were to find out that Bradley Jackson had betrayed her values this much,
she'd be like, really? Yeah. Wait, I loved her. She'd be like, really?
Yeah.
Wait,
I loved her.
She'd be like,
wait,
y'all.
I thought that she was one of those truth tellers.
Y'all y'all.
It was wild because I was like,
wow,
they're actually like testing both of these protagonists in a way that like is in line with who they are.
And like this show ended up like the way that everything they set up ended up really
it works it actually really plays it plays and you're saying alex's thing is that like from the
beginning like episode one bradley jackson's thing is i'm a truth teller i'm a journalist yes
episode one like what do we think alex's thing is well i think alex has represented someone that has like been so entrenched in problematic media and structures and men yes and and not really handling the
boundaries of those things well she's been protected by structures but she's also like
violated like every single yes appropriate quote-unquote thing where like she fucks mitch
she is fucking Jon Hamm now yeah
okay I think what we're seeing
with Alex is like we're seeing
a narcissist like truly
be confronted with the fact that you can't
just have everything you want like
and it is possible for you to actually
get got by someone like this because
like the Jon Hamm and Jennifer
Addison thing Jon Hamm by the way is playing the most
triggering man on television.
He's such a blatant egomaniac narcissist.
And to watch her get dicked so good.
And remember, she laid on top of his butt.
They were pussy to butt, which is intimate.
Cat on tortoise.
Cat tortoise.
And so now we're seeing really the ramifications of that.
When you put your pussy
on a man on a man's butt you are mated for life avatar yes and i think that even with cory
my note with cory as a character was like you never see this man lose no this man needs to
take one l and then finally the crow is roosting. What's the saying? I think the chickens
have come back to roost. The chickens saying thank you.
But I love thinking about what the crow would do
if she were to roost. The crow can roost.
Can I say, I was in
Vegas and I was having
an outdoor brunch. There was
this one crow a-crowing. There was a
crow in Vegas? I can't even explain.
That's a horror movie. I can't even explain
how loud and disgusting this crow
was being and I'm trying to sit
there and have some hair of the dog
which everyone needs in Vegas
Desperado
Oh Manicato
Oh Manicato We'll be right back. New York City. Everyone is a gossip. No one gets a happier life. Salt Lake City. We don't wear pastels, we wear fashion.
And below deck sailing.
You broke the rules.
And now you're here getting upset.
Watch all new seasons on Bravo or stream it on City TV+.
Let's have a real fun time.
Hey, I'm Jay Shetty and I'm the host of On Purpose.
My latest episode is with Jelly Roll.
This episode is one of the most honest and raw interviews I've ever had.
We go deep into
Jelly Roll's life story from being in and out of prison from the age of 13 to being one of today's
biggest artists. We talk about guilt, shame, body image, and huge life transformations.
I was a desperate delusional dreamer and the desperate part got me in a lot of trouble. I
encourage delusional dreamers. Be a delusional dreamer. Just don't be a desperate delusional dreamer.
I just had such an anger.
I was just so mad at life.
Everything that wasn't right was everybody's fault but mine.
I had such a victim mentality.
I took zero accountability for anything in my life.
I was the kid that if you asked what happened,
I immediately started with everything but me.
It took years for me to break that, like years of work.

Here's how I want to
talk about Vegas.
Just ask questions.
Okay.
What do you want to know?
What?
I can answer anything.
What was Usher giving?
Usher, the energy was giving everyone in that crowd would have willfully gotten an STD from him.
That's so funny that he has out-Magic Mike's Magic Mike.
Magic Mike was found so dead.
Because let me tell you something magic Mike needs like all the hottest men in the world on stage or
but they're all like sorry to say I mean they're all talented wonderful beautiful men
they're all like just guys yeah they're they're like guys who are like Vegas hot you know what
I mean it's like they have like let's call it like uh men's health cover body yeah looking
all the same in the face what i'll say about usher is he is really the only male object of desire on
stage yeah he looks great he sounds unbelievable his performance is amazing at one point he comes
out on roller skates wow and does like four numbers in a row. Skates.
And thank you for making that distinction because we all know that blades are much easier.
Definitely.
He's on roller skates on the stage.
It was so insane.
Then all of his backup dancers were like
doing choreo on roller skates.
But what I really want to say
is the exotic dancers that he has in the show,
the female performers.
I saw a pole dancer on your story.
She was mesmerizing. Let me tell you something.
It was Olympic what these women
were doing. They are mesmers.
Mesmer. Mesmer is a
great word to say. Mesmer. I was
mesmerized. Yes. By the
mesmers. Yes. That's actually
RealCulture number 90. I was mesmerized
by the mesmers at Usher's
Vegas residency. Think about
this. Usher has seen a whole generation of people
mature into their sexual adulthoods.
Yeah.
And now the crow has come to roost.
The crow was roosting down.
Well, now it's like,
we're all these grown-ass people now
who were horny for usher when we were in
middle school yes and he still looks incredible and now we're all like i'm gonna pay top dollar
to see this man yes gyrate and sing and croon whatever and have his little dancers running
around and i'm getting off it was get off culture for sure. There was really two highlights.
One was at one point,
Usher comes out into the audience
and he's doing the thing where
he's improvising singing
and basically to the beat
and he would see people in the crowd
and he'd be like,
girl, you got them titties.
You got them big titties.
And then he goes and does like the I'm a suck them titties. You got them big titties. And then he goes
and does like the
I'm a suck your titties noise. And I'm like,
so we are in an era
right now where we are not even pretending
that the end game isn't
Usher sucks my titties.
No one cares.
No. I mean, no one
takes issue with that. No, every single
person that was there was like,
what I hope happens is Usher from the stage goes,
I see you up there in the pink dress with them titties.
I'm going to suck them.
And everyone's screaming in approval.
And we are so lit.
And by the way, all the bops.
I'm so caught up.
Oh my God.
Caught up.
Does he do Climax?
Yes.
He did everything.
But I would say the highlight, and we've talked about it on the show.
Burn.
Oh my God.
Burn is an important song.
Burn.
Does he do You Got It Bad?
Babe, imagine he did not.
Every single song you'd want to hear. And you say that you want it bad? Babe, imagine he did not. Every single song you'd want to hear.
And you say that you want it.
And you really know
everything used to matter.
Don't matter no more.
You ignore my key all the time.
I think I'm in your key.
No,
you fully blasted past my key.
We need to talk.
I'm not happy.
What key did you just do?
Because I'm a little
hoarse today
and this morning,
you know,
at 10 a.m., 9.42 a.m.
This is what I said, I think.
This is what I did.
When you say that you want it
and you really know everything used to matter
don't matter no more.
But you went up.
Okay, so can I just be real?
Sometimes I'm off.
No, it's not that you're off.
You were doing what you needed to do there for your voice.
Thank you.
I just sometimes feel like I can's not that you're off. You were doing what you needed to do there for your voice. Thank you. I just sometimes feel like...
I can't help but sing in the original key.
Girl, you better...
Been there, done it, but I'm out.
It's so good.
Wait, but Burn was so...
Burn is an incredible song.
And then when Yeah started...
I mean...
I think everybody fucked. True or
false? I'm ready for this
one. Every middle school dance,
that
was the song that everyone
was waiting for. I was at home
burning CDs
where all 10 tracks
were Yeah by Usher, Ying Ying
Twins, Ludacris. Yeah. And I was
like, I need to get
off books so that i can amaze everyone in the gymnasium and did you i know you did no
i feel like because i didn't amaze anybody because we all knew the words we all knew every single
word you know it will be powerful to go back in time in the delorean that we talked about in last
week's episode and i would love to go back in time and see you just running train on girls
in middle school.
You and girls grinding at a middle school
dance to Usher. I would love that.
I was grinding down.
Grinding culture!
I was so good
at grinding. I was dropping
it to the floor. Holy shit.
I was really throwing
my ass onto linoleum or whatever oh yeah
linoleum that was that was really i remember we would do the thing where it was like we would
have like a social like that's what they call like a middle school social and at iceland middle school
and what they would do was they would split the gym so you know how those gyms or high school
gyms yes they would have the ability to like make it so that it was like two rooms it had a flex wall a flex wall thank you for that and um one side
would be sports so like people playing knockout and basketball and the other side would be some
of the horniest 14 year olds in the no not 12 year olds in the country rubbing genitals on each other
during a dance craze known as grinding and um the songs
would be like literally little john screaming about like you know like fuck her now i mean all
this culture like yep we all of course we all remember the crunk and b craze number one ciara
was the princess of crunk and b crunk and and B. Ciara, really, what do we think?
I'm so happy.
What do we think?
What do we think about Ciara?
First of all, Ciara.
Ciara.
I'm sorry.
The princess is here.
The princess is here.

producer
segment producer
Seth Meyers
and Seth himself
texted me
Matt was so funny
Seth texted you?
Seth texted me
Seth and I you know we'll text sometimes.
I have to tell you, first of all.
One of the best men.
One of the great men.
One of the great men.
And actually, is it next week or the week after?
So, I know the week after he's going to be on this podcast.
He will be a guest on Lost Culture East Fest.
And I will say the vibe, immaculate.
Just when you go there, it's like everyone is so happy.
Their staff has all been there
for a really long time
and just really great.
And he couldn't,
he's a consummate host.
Great dude.
Super funny, as we all know.
But like, it's also like,
just an icon.
And I use this word
in a way that might feel off.
Classy.
Classy.
The classiest man.
Yeah.
I mean, like just whatever happened to class.
Whatever happened to fair breeding.
Good manners.
And pure ethics.
Nice manners.
Okay.
I need to get back.
We need to get back on Vegas.
Okay. Yeah. So that Adele. Adele. The other. We need to get back on Vegas. Okay, yeah.
Adele we've talked about before.
The other thing I wanted to say about Usher,
the one other thing I wanted to say,
is these dancers.
Yeah.
There was at one point a 20-foot high pole
and one of these women just only with her thighs
climbed all the way up to the-
Two stories?
It was Bowen and then she dropped the tower of terror and caught herself on the pole.
It was, I'm telling you, they train for this.
Where do they like practice this?
Cause I don't think there's a studio, a two story tall dance studio.
Maybe there is.
I think this is just, I mean, first of all, never forget hustlers.
We all have a documentary on this,
and it's Hustlers starring Jennifer Lopez.
But my thing was, I was just like,
wherever they learned it,
I'm so happy they're doing it on the world stage.
Oh, yeah.
And I hope we see it at the Super Bowl.
The sphere, I'm like, okay.
If the sphere had a pole that led all the way up to the top,
Yeah.
and people could dance on it.
Catch me there.
Catch me there. Catch me there.
100%.
I don't,
anytime I see a photo
of the sphere,
of someone at the sphere,
I have to stop and go,
I don't know about this.
Having been there
a couple times,
like,
hearing how excited
everyone is about it,
like,
everyone in Vegas
is talking about the sphere.
I was like,
I gotta go in there.
And I did not get the chance to
because we had a packed schedule.
I'm telling you, like, it was it was first of all I went from the airport
to Usher because Delta flopped this time
missed I think
not I don't miss anything
I just walked in like and it was like
Usher's going on so the energy was high
then I had BravoCon like
the next day and then Adele that night so I didn't
fit in the sphere also I think it's you too
right now the second that the sphere books someone that I want So I didn't fit in the sphere. Also, I think it's you too right now. The second that
the sphere books someone that I want to see
even a little bit, I want to go.
It seems insane.
But just
too insane.
Yeah. I don't know. I need to be
convinced. I would think
that you as someone who like
What are you going to say? This isn't
entirely fair, but I feel like whenever there's a new
advancement in technology, you're always like
engaging. Not anymore.
Or it's just a bridge too far. I've hit
such a
plateau with it. God, I remember
Gizmodo. Anyway, I was like, yes,
but now that we're in this
web 3.0
shit, like
I'm like, lose my number.
Lose my number because AI might be coming.
Well, it's that.
It's like, God, I had a driver,
a lovely driver, but he was just
maybe the 20th person
in my life to explain blockchain to me.
I haven't
had that happen.
I was trying to keep up.
I was like, oh yeah, Ethereum.
And I was like, well,, Ethereum. Uh-huh.
And I was like, well, what about SBF?
And whatever.
And he was just trying to explain it to me.
And he was really enthused about it. And I was happy for him.
I'm out.
Listen.
Take me back to...
If Gaga does the sphere, you're out?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't even...
Not even Gaga can get me to the sphere.
You are a total liar. No. You're like Bradley Yeah. Yeah, I don't even... Not even Gaga can get me to disappear. You are a total liar.
No!
I want to start an Amish community
that is
2014 technology
only.
I've never met anyone less.
I've never met anyone
who would do worse
in an Amish community than you.
I'm saying it's not an Amish community.
It's a community that has technology that only goes up to 2014.
Okay.
That's what I said.
So what is that like?
In 2014, what was thine?
The iPhone 6.
We all still kind of like had our iPods around.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It wasn't like a relic.
Right, right, right.
Oh my God.
Anyway, quickly, we've talked about
adele in vegas before talk about adele adele was a fabulous she she goes i'm so sick i'm sorry
she then gave the most flawless vocal performance i've ever heard she was like my chest is on fire
and if i if i even speak i'm gonna die but i'm emotional i'm so emotional it's emotional for me
because i want to do the last show but I've got a shit voice
tonight and she's going off about
how sick she is she goes
I'm going to be turning the mic around so y'all have to
sing for me almost the whole show
I'm like yeah right she turns out
the most stunning
vocal maybe even better than last time
wow
it was amazing and then the Bravo
kind of at all
I've never been so starstruck.
It must've been like everywhere you turned.
It was like,
Oh my God,
you,
you,
you,
it was truly surreal.
Like,
I think I was more nervous at Bravo con than I was when we've been to like
the Emmys and the critics choice awards.
Like,
because turning around and seeing Kristen Stewart
is one thing. Turning around
and seeing Dolores.
Dorit. I went up to Dorit.
I had to. Oh my god, tell me.
I was with Riri Chaney.
First she goes, because Garcelle comes in.
Garcelle was giving...
Well, I was too scared. Garcelle was giving
top dog energy.
Garcelle came in,
went to a corner and was like surrounded by people.
Her son Oliver was there and she had like a whole thing and she was sitting
down talking to someone.
And I was like,
I am not going to interrupt her.
Even though we've met a couple of times,
she's been on this podcast.
Like,
I had a whole in with her because I was there with Riri who was in,
I can't say what show, but Garcelle was in a show with Riri.
And I had a whole opening where I was like, this is Riri, like da da da.
And Riri was like, can we please go over and say hi to Garcelle?
And I was like, I have to tell you something.
I'm actually too intimidated.
So now you understand my timidness around the housewives.
Yes.
Like, I've always been too scared to go up to Meredith, even though we've been in the same space
several times. I saw Whitney
at Schucht. She walked
past me. I was too scared. I was with Sudi, so she was like,
say hi to her. I was like, no way.
Even though it's Whitney. Whitney Rose at Schucht
would have been the only vibe
for me. Rinna said hi to me at
Sweeney Todd, and that was, she initiated
it, and then it was a lovely interaction, and
I actually stan Lisa Rinna. I mean you have to stand Lisa Rinna like since Veronica Mars
yes I'm on record as a Lisa Rinna stan um but it was really surreal because like you're walking
around and like you're seeing all these like characters that are also soap characters but
it's like because they are real
they're walking around doing it so it's like being at disney world and watching mickey come in
but mickey never takes off the hood you know what i'm saying it's not just mickey it's it's goofy
donald pluto it was daisy yes all of them it's everybody walking around being like, hey. People I was too scared to go up to.
Garcelle, Alexia, and Marisol could not do it.
Giselle Bryant did come in the room, and I turned to Rhea, and I said, we have to go.
I was like, I can't.
What are you afraid of?
What is she going to do?
Fucking be inappropriate and like abuse, traumatize her children in front of you?
No. Fucking you. No!
Fucking loser. No!
Hate her. Okay, Bowen is Bowen's thing with Giselle.
Am I wrong or am I wrong? Her thing
everyone's like, Giselle is so
funny, why do you hate her? She's
never told a joke in her life.
She's never said a funny thing. She's
just drawn
out her words and then ends up with a little
flourish i'm gonna push back on you about this no i think one of the one of the positive things
about giselle is i think that at least she gives punch to i kind of like karen can give you punch
and says the funniest shit you've ever heard i mean we, we are, of course, Team Karen. But, like, I would say that...
So, we'll get into Potomac, but
I just wanted to wrap it up by saying
I met, like, Lisa Barlow,
who was a legend.
Whitney, I loved hanging out with.
Your picture with Lisa was huge.
I saw John Barlow, who's
6'9", and way
hot in person.
Justin Rose was handsome in person, which I don't
think comes across on the show.
Very handsome. Oh, I saw Jackie
Goldschneider. It's always great to see her.
Jackie's lovely in
person. Love Jackie. She's adorable.
I saw Melissa Gorga and Rachel
Fuda and their husbands. They were going
off in the casino. I saw
them right after Adele, actually. Your old
friends. My pals.
My favorite person that I met,
Shannon Stubbs Boudoir.
Huge fan of I Love That For You.
She came up and was so nice.
She was like,
I just want to say,
I'm such a huge fan of I Love That For You.
You know, I used to sell stuff on QVC.
And I was like,
you know, you're one of Molly's favorites.
She goes,
I run into her every now and then.
And I'm always so starstruck when I see her I was
like well she is starstruck
around you Shannon Snormspedor
and Shannon goes I just
like love how much you're on Watch What Happens Live
and I just think I'm such a fan and she was
so nice and I felt so bad
because the last time I was on Watch What Happens
Live you called her mentally unwell
I didn't say mentally
unwell I said shannon is not
well i'm sorry i take it and i looked at her and i said you look amazing right and she goes well
it's the dui diet oh and i i went cross-eyed and i was like i'm so happy you seem to be doing better
she goes i am doing a lot better so this is the thing it's like this is the air these women breathe
which is people knowing
about the darkest details of their personal lives yeah and so i couldn't help but wonder like does
shannon storms bedore is she like used to this by now like used to people being like how are you
doing i think it's been long enough that she understands that they all get that it's a good
bad and ugly moment sure and when she sees you on tv going she's
unwell i imagine that she kind of she sees that she nods and goes yeah yeah i think she probably
was watching that season and was clearly she's she was not well right but now it's like she's
doing so much better and i was like you're so lovely and she goes i really am nice and i was
like i adore you tamra was a lot of fun she was really being
tamra okay i was like you are a 10 out of 10 and then i did the roni panel and it was so much fun
all those women are great i didn't even need to be won over by them but so i won you over i liked
her a lot okay and i also get the sense that they all like each other a lot. Like the vibes were really good. And I was really happy to not moderate a panel that had like an actual,
a lot of drama.
Yeah.
Because almost every other panel was like,
like Robin Dixon got booed.
She got booed.
And that was like about,
and can I say something about the booing?
Let's not.
I don't think we need to boo.
And like,
have you ever booed?
Have you ever booed in your life?
Never.
Never.
It's actually such a low classless fucking thing.
Cause here's the deal.
Like even Robin,
who I've had fun dragging on the show.
I don't hate her.
I would never boo Giselle.
Here's the thing.
It's like,
I take major issue with the way that they've treated Wendy and Candace.
And just the way that they are on the show.
But even if I were to turn around and see Robin Dixon,
I wouldn't want her to think like,
Oh,
that's Matt Rogers who quote unquote hates me.
It's like,
I watched the show.
They get it when we'll get into Potomac.
Cause there's a lot to say,
but like,
it was very clear to me a,
how positive the Bravo con atmosphere was,
especially it was really like these people were so excited to see all these
women and the other Bravo people,
but it didn't feel like a bad vibe,
which I think sometimes online,
the social media around the show and the horror feel like bad vibes.
And I don't want to contribute to bad vibes anymore,
especially after having been around them.
Cause it really was a positive
atmosphere. So I'll continue to have
fun dragging them in fun ways,
but my thing going
forward is I'm just going to check myself when it feels like
I'm being a little too much.
Oh, that's nice. That being said,
that's interesting because I feel like some
dispatches from the
ground were that the vibe
is a little like wrestling.
It's a little bit like WWE, like for sure.
I'm stepping out like arms raised like, oh, you know, like that kind of thing.
It gives that a little bit, which is no knock on wrestling culture.
But like that feels weird.
It makes sense that in a live extemporaneous setting.
Yeah, that that happens,
but it is like a little bizarre.
It was people reacting,
people responding to like what basically is like a reunion on stage with an
audience.
That is like a little disorienting.
And that's why I'm like really happy.
I had a cast that was all like liking each other.
Gentle Lions wasn't there,
which was unfortunate.
But I will say,
having been there on stage,
and I know they really want her to come back,
and I hope she comes back too,
she is not essential
to the success of that show.
Not essential.
Anyone being like,
oh, Jenna Lyons is the show,
I think she's a great part of the show,
but you don't need her for the show.
I think a diet Prada or something did like a whole feature on her,
like how she like changed reality TV.
And I'm like,
I want to be like,
Oh,
certainly not.
No,
she didn't.
No,
no.
Like,
stop talking about her.
Like,
where was this about Tiffany Pollard?
Thank you.
By the way,
we should just say,
I guess Tiffany Pollard got voted out of the House of Villains. Has been evicted.
She's been evicted from the House of Villains, but not before
calling into Omarosa.
Manny Galt, Newman, Stallworth, whatever.
We can't really repeat what she said, but just go online and see, I mean, what Tiffany
And I sleep better knowing that you're not in the White House.
I just want to say that you are a
sucking, guzzling Republican.
And I sleep better at night
knowing that you are not in the White House.
I mean...
And please bleep out that whole thing.
It's Omarosa.
It's like, this woman has to be able to
receive this kind of poison. And I think she did. She was just like, this woman has to be able to receive this kind of poison.
And I think she did.
She was just like, and you see, ladies and gentlemen, this is why we're evicting.
And I was just like, wow.
Wow.
Thank God, like, that show, which I haven't watched, I have to, capitalized on having both of them there.
I know.
I mean, that is like, yeah.
I mean, what a major moment to have Omarosa and New York
in the same space.
I fell off Survivor,
but people at work
were talking about this.
But I hear the characters
are really like coming
into their own,
but it is still,
I think the theme this season
was dweebs.
Dweebs on a beach.
Dweebs on a beach.
And like, they're such dweebs.
I will say a lot of people
have been reaching out
to say,
hey,
actually,
we thought the season
wasn't going to give
and it did end up.
It's now like,
it's crystallized.
I hear it's crystallizing
and it's giving.
Someone at work
is saying that this is
her first season
and she loves it
and she goes,
it's really interesting.
And she's like,
now that she's caught up,
she's like,
going back and dipping
into I gave her your syllabus.
But she goes, it's really interesting to watch this season
knowing that these are all dweebs.
That they're not playing, none of them are playing
the game well because now I'm
seeing what not to do
first. And then she was
like, I made the mistake of going back to watch Heroes
and Villains and it's a little over my head because
I'm like, they're all, the gameplay
is too sophisticated on Heroes and my head because I'm like they're all the gameplay is too sophisticated on
heroes and villains and I'm missing like the
nuance and I think it's interesting
that she is watching this season
first watching people who are
actively bad at this
yeah whenever I'm suggesting people
watch the show I try to start them
in a place where like
either there's a good
mix of gameplay like you have people that are bad and
people that are really good which is why i would never say watch an all-star season first because
like i'm saying heroes versus villains if that's your first survivor season that's like going to
bravo con and having never seen a housewives it's just a bunch of characters like being at 10 yeah
then like all of a sudden there's like so much crazy gameplay going on and like you
just wouldn't get why it's cool that parvati whips out two immunity idols and saves people right if
you didn't know yes but yeah i mean so i'll get into it maybe even today on the plane oh i'll
watch survivor but they're 90 minutes episodes yeah that's too long. I'm out. That's what got me off of
I had a brief thing
with The Bachelor, Bachelorette
years ago. And now
with Golden Bachelor, they're just like, I think most of them
are like an hour. Yeah. But there was
that time in Bachelor Nation where
it was like two hour episodes. And I was like, how do
you all do this? I watched the Rachel Lindsay
season, which by the way, Rachel was at.
Oh, yeah, she was there. She was there. She was doing the
Potomac panel and I was
like, that is not a position
I would ever want to be in.
The vibes are always just so
tense around that
cast. What did you think of the
first episode? I thought there was
too much Robin and I texted you
and our friends. I was like,
we're in for a frustrating season
if we're going to focus.
And it seems like
from the trailer,
we are focused on Robin
a lot of it.
And like,
I'm not even necessarily
excited for whatever moment
she like breaks down
in that van
and she goes,
do you know what I'm talking about?
But she goes,
fuck all y'all.
I didn't do nothing to you guys.
I didn't do nothing to you guys.
What am I the villain?
Sobbing on the street.
I just think
this is a woman
who for years has like no actual sense of herself.
And it's really tough to watch.
Like she doesn't know who she is.
And like watching this episode is really tough,
especially at the end where she talks to Giselle and Ashley and Therese.
And her whole thing is like apathy is literally,
I don't care.
Like care.
She drops a full octave mid syllable in her tagline this season yeah the taglines this season really rough except for candace's the rest of them don't
make any sense especially karen's i'm sorry i love we love karen but robin's like she's fully
referencing a lizzo lyric from like six years ago. I'm like, and then I realized,
and I told you and Joel this,
I was like,
I used to love all of these women.
Yeah.
And now I can't stand two thirds of them.
Because it's early.
I am not already like,
like I get where you're at,
but my thing is like,
I actually,
in that last long scene where Giselle, Cherise, and Ashley are confronting Robin about whether or not she's okay and the want of it all, etc.
I actually felt I was Team Robin in that scene because I was just like, she's telling you what her truth is, which is that if her husband has cheated on her, she doesn't care.
She wants it to work.
So that's the reality that you have to accept.
And Giselle kept pushing it to the point where Robin was like,
what do you want me to do?
Giselle like file for divorce.
Is that what you want?
She goes,
no,
I want you to be happy.
I'm like,
yeah,
you think she'd be happier if she wasn't with him.
Right,
right,
right.
So what are you saying?
You want this,
her marriage to be over.
And she's like,
I'm checking in with you.
I'm checking in with you.
I'm like, not really. I mean, like like you're saying like it's a fuck one moment like one is the reason you're unhappy that that that that and i kind of got robin in that scene because it's like
i get this woman is exhausted she's getting played by him or if she's not then it's too
exhausting to explain and when she said that her joy had been stolen,
that was a bummer for me.
I was like, uh, you know,
I'm still in the position of I'm trying yet again
at the top of the season to go in with an open mind
and we'll see if they fuck it up.
I'm just watching for Wendy and Candace and Karen.
And I'm curious about NECA.
I'm already allergic to NECA
because I don't like this.
She said that Wendy's mother does
voodoo. I mean, but
that's like, that is a big,
I just can admire a big swing like
that when you're coming in fresh.
The trailer being like,
Wendy being like,
my mother worships our Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christ. And then NECA goes, during the day, at night, she brings the voodoo doll out.
She says something like, you know, like, it was, I'm excited for, I guess, that.
But I'm not going to be pro-NECA because don't come for Wendy.
It's don't come for Wendy.
But I, with the Robin of it all, her saying that her joy had been stolen is a bummer,
but she's still misattributing it to like the discourse around the marriage
and not one.
I think that's what Giselle was like taking issue with.
I agree that Giselle was pushing in a way that is like Giselle inappropriate.
Yeah.
I have had it with inappropriate people in general and all in all sectors you know what i'm
talking about some people especially there's one person online who has become the poster
person for inappropriateness oh oh oh bleep that bleep that please but but yeah i mean it's all
too fucking it's all too fucking much it It's all too fucking much. It's certainly gone too far. Okay, so when I watched this premiere and I compared it to the Miami,
we were cheering, hooping, hollering.
You literally said when we were watching the Miami premiere, a triumph.
And this is my thing.
Like, I need to feel something powerful when it comes to a Housewives franchise now.
Salt Lake is delivering that. Miami is delivering that. Beverly Hills is yet to. Housewives franchise now. Salt Lake is delivering that.
Miami is delivering that.
Beverly Hills is yet to.
But I have hope.
It'll happen.
It'll happen.
I'm sure Potomac will.
But Miami, I was so happy to see all of these women.
I was overjoyed.
We cheered when Adriana came on.
Yes, we did.
We cheered when Marisol came on.
I'm so happy to hear that Gertie is cancer-free
as of BravoCon. Amazing. Amazing news. The vibes are good. The vibes are frivolous. did we cheered when marisol came on i'm so happy to hear that gertie is cancer free as a bravo
amazing news like the vibes are good the vibes are frivolous i mean it is that is melodrama gertie
sweeping in front of larsa in this premiere going i'm gonna need you i'm gonna need you
it's like be there for me i'm gonna need you this is amazing i was like this
because it's so truthful and yet it's so big.
Celestium was saying this
about Miami.
Either Celeste or Sarah Sherman.
They go,
the women on Miami
dress sexy
just for themselves.
Yeah.
That's a really
good way of putting it.
It's not even like
Atlanta or Potomac
or Beverly Hills.
Well, no, Beverly Hills maybe.
Beverly Hills, it's not about sexy.
It's about glamour.
It's about glamour and labels.
Yeah, it's about stunting.
Miami, it's like, because it's Miami culture.
They just want to look hot.
There's a lot of personal style.
Yes.
That's something I think is really fun.
Personal and functional.
Like they're in a hot city.
You know what I mean?
I did go up to Lisa Hochstein.
And I said,
Lisa, I love you.
She literally turns over her shoulder and goes,
thanks.
That's a good Lisa.
I love that she paid me a sword of dust.
It was great.
I loved it.
Wow.
And I'm trying to think of other people.
She was too busy FaceTuning herself.
She was talking to Jodi.
Oh, Jodi was there. She was the most shoulderless man in the universe.
He has no shoulders, but he has a lot of heart.
And I'm so happy for them both.
No, he seems like a great guy.
I'm just saying, like, the silhouette is jarring at first.
And I'm still thinking about it, but he seems lovely.
I bet he's swinging.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, for sure.
Swinging, slinging.
Swinging, slinging, all those things.
This fall on Bravo.
It's time to turn up.
Think you've seen it all?
I don't think you've been a good friend to me lately.
We're friends like that.
Who needs enemies?
You ain't seen nothing yet.
Cheers to being Germanic.
With the Real Housewives of Potomac.
Oh my gosh, can I take this in?
It's going to be amazing.
New York City. Everyone is a gossip. No's going to be amazing. New York City.
Everyone is a gossip.
No one gets a happier life.
Salt Lake City.
We don't wear pastels, we wear fashion.
And below deck sailing.
You broke the rules and now you're here getting upset.
Watch all new seasons on Bravo or stream it on City TV+. Let's have a real good time.
Hey, I'm Jay Shetty and I'm the host of On Purpose.
My latest episode is with Jelly Roll.
This episode is one of the most honest and raw interviews I've ever had.
We go deep into Jelly Roll's life story from being in and out of prison from the age of 13

We talk about guilt, shame, body image, and huge life transformations.
I was a desperate delusional dreamer and the desperate part got me in a lot of trouble. I encourage delusional dreamers. desperate, delusional dreamer. And the desperate part got me in a lot of trouble.
I encourage delusional dreamers.
Be a delusional dreamer.
Just don't be a desperate, delusional dreamer.
I just had such an anger.
I was just so mad at life.
Everything that wasn't right was everybody's fault but mine.
I had such a victim mentality.
I took zero accountability for anything in my life.
I was the kid that if you asked what happened,
I immediately started with everything
but me. It took years for me to break that, like years of work. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty

My girl has a flight to catch. partner of iHeartWomen Sports.
My girl has a flight to catch. I got a flight to catch, so
I'm wondering, is there anything that we really
need to discuss?
The album's out. Well, thank you
for saying that. My album is out. Thank you all
for streaming it. One of my songs is
doing really well.
Three of your songs are doing really well. A few of them are doing
really well, but one of them got put on a
special Christmas playlist, a couple of them are doing really well, but one of them got put on a special Christmas playlist,
a couple of them,
and they made me the face of the playlist.
But my song called I Don't Need It To Be Christmas At All,
which was the one that we put on the album as the last track
just because it was more earnest in general
and we just wanted to have fun with it.
It's doing great,
but I'm so happy with the way everyone's been receiving the album.
Phenomenal. You sound so good. great, but I'm so happy with the way everyone's been receiving the album. It is phenomenal.
You sound so good.
The production. Bravo.
Featuring Bo and Yang. People love that track.
I think, and I'm using the mic that I use to record that. Don't do this.
I was eating up my bowels
towards the end. Everyone's thrilled
with your performance. I'm listening to it and I go,
you can't hear the last syllable I say
in every line. And that's my fault. It's not your fault. And'm listening to it. I go, you can't hear the last syllable I say in every line.
And that's my fault.
It's not your fault.
And it's also not true.
Well,
I'll have a chance to- And don't be looking,
don't be telling me
that you don't think
things sound correct
on my album.
Well,
I'm talking about just me.
No.
Because you were a part of my album.
You were a featured artist
on my album.
I'm saying to you-
If we win album of the year,
you win a Grammy too.
Is that true?
No, I don't think so.
I'm saying to you
that I think that there will be a chance for me to
redeem myself.
Girl,
maybe,
uh,
down the road.
Live performance.
Live performance.
Um,
yeah,
thank you everyone.
And I will say I'm at Vulture Fest this weekend on Saturday.

You need to just put on an episode of what did you say you're going to watch on the plane?
I guess Survivor.
Survivor.
You know what I wish you could watch on a plane is Naked Attraction.
Oh, that would be so great.
I finally started watching like random episodes. Naked Attraction. Oh, that would be so great. I finally started watching
like random episodes.
Naked Attraction.
I haven't thought about that
in such a long time.
I know.
It's a fun show.
I think it's making its way
stateside in a big way.
I think people are really like,
like everyone at work
is like,
Naked Attraction,
Naked Attraction.
I'm like,
oh, it's like really in the air.
Who's hosting this week?
Chalamet.
Yes.
Yeah.
How are vibes so far?
Great.
Yeah.
Has he come through before? Yeah, he has. Yeah.
He had a great show and
we're excited. He seems like he would do a good
job. Oh, yeah. Solid host.
Celeste put on
the clip. We were in the office of
Timothy and Saoirse
and Little Women. Like, Timothy
confessing his love to Joe. Oh, that's such a good scene.
And I was like, damn. I don't
pay attention to this scene, but they're both
so... I miss Saoirse.
She's coming back. But I feel like she's been gone
for a minute. Wait, isn't there a Saoirse
movie that's coming out?
She has been taking a little bit of a break
away, but then again, the industry is...
The industry is the industry. Shut down, honey.
But wow, that scene's amazing. But Timothy, I'm like,
oh yeah, he's a damn star yeah, like he's a damn star.
Yeah, he's a damn star.
For sure.
I think we can say that's a rule of culture.
Number eight,
Timothy Chalamet is a damn star.
In that movie especially,
but in his general aesthetic,
he is like the most gorgeous lesbian you've ever seen.
Yeah, beautiful lesbian.
Especially in that little women scene,
the puffy sleeves, that vest.
I'm like like this is so
beautiful he's slender like jody he's slender like no but timothy has shoulders jody is the letter i
what's the hotness vibe in person with chalamet can i be honest like and this is purely personal
yeah not my thing not my thing either but but i celebrate but like venus is a boy
fucking caravaggio man i'm sorry boy caravaggio boy caravaggio boy title of app title of app
timothy you'll never guess caravaggio boy might be one of our best titles okay let me show you
i'm gonna google image search like he's this he's the boy with
the basket of fruit you know what i mean if you google the word boy with the basket of fruit
caravaggio you're gonna find timothy chalamet caravaggio boy is timothy chalamet boy with the
basket of fruit vibes he should play him in the film he should grow with grow with a pearl earring
boy with the basket of fruits let's write it we. We, I don't think, would do a good job
writing that. I think actually we would.
Girl, oh, I just realized my
I don't think so, honey. And I think it might be
a retreat, but I have to say this again.
Should we go right into it?
Yeah. Okay, or do you not have one this week?
I kind of have one. It's a little petty, but
yeah. It's a little petty? Well, yeah.
You know. I think I know what you're
about to do. Well, this is I Don't Think So
Honey and it's
really a moment which, by the way,
Jennifer Hudson didn't
really do one
but you guys did a joint I Don't Think So Honey.
We did a joint I Don't Think So Honey. That was
majorly, and you're right, maybe it's time
to just call it.
Can I quickly tell my story about meeting Jennifer Hudson?
Yes. Because I went to say hi to you in your makeup chair. She hadn't gotten there yet. She hadn't gotten there yet. to like just call it can i quickly tell my story about meeting jennifer hudson so because i went
to go say hi to you and your makeup she hadn't gotten there yet so i go in and i meet her and
i'm of course gushing over her and you know i even went up to her and i sang well i don't like
and she goes and i was like i'm so happy you did it back but um we did this i don't think so honey
and my i don't think so honey was i don't
think so many people saying it's too early for christmas like christmas is here it started at
the so then afterwards it's time she turns to me and she goes you have a christmas album and i said
yes and she goes that's amazing she goes i want to do a christmas album i was like you have to
oh my god and then she said yeah but i have a problem i was like what she have to. Oh my God. And then she said, yeah, but I have a problem.
I was like, what?
She goes, I don't know if it's going to be red and green Christmas or white Christmas.
And I said, that is actually so important.
I said, what do you mean?
She goes, well, if it's red and green Christmas, you have to sing certain types of songs.
Wow.
And if it's a white Christmas, well, that's when you have to sing Silent Night.
And I was like, you think that there's a difference? She goes, oh yeah.
Then she goes, and there's also
many other different kinds of Christmas.
And I said, did you see Carrie Arndt's
Christmas special? She said, no.
I said, well, she wore a blue dress.
And Jennifer Hudson said,
that's what I'm saying.
So I was like, I don't know if this is like
a synesthesia or something where she's associating colors with certain songs but she was like
I don't know if it's gonna be red and green Christmas or white Christmas it's not maybe
it's not full synesthesia but the fact that this person this amazing musician vocalist
is thinking in terms of color is so beautiful to me and then i was like are you
gonna do a holy night she goes i mean i guess i have to do that's why christmas that's not bread
that's why christmas and so then she goes well you know not enough people do silent night and i was
like you think so that's not true i was like i don't know she goes not look it up no one does
silent night i was like well you have to do silent night and i said to her i was like, I don't know. She goes, look it up. No one does Silent Night. I was like, well, you have to do Silent Night.
And I said to her, I was like, you should just not do a Holy Night because everyone expects it from you.
She goes, okay.
And then she's leaving and she goes, White Christmas.
It was perfect.
This could not have gone any better.
It was amazing.
She was so nice.
And then she goes, during the, I don't think so, honey.
I'm going to have to try to keep up with you, but I don't know if I can because
you're fierce. She called you
fierce? And I was like, Jennifer!
Louise from St. Louis
called you fierce? St. Louise.
You,
oh my God, this is one of your, this is one
of your people. Some like great meetings so
far of my life. This is, I don't know how
it keeps happening like this, but I also met Gail
King yesterday. Oh my God, wait. wait she was lovely the vibe is immaculate yeah gail king she came right in the
dressing room she said you know i thought that was very funny and here's the part of the interview i
liked the most and she said like one part of the interview and i was like well thank you gail
and she was just very nice and she did that power move too where like she left the room without
saying goodbye she sort of was just like I'm leaving you on this
and then she went away
it was nice to meet you she goes pleasure
loved her
I'm not making this about me
but next time you see her
I know I thought about this telling her that
you guys are both swifties
well that we held on to each other
during all too well
10 minute version singing Singing every word.
And then Ryan Reynolds turns next to.
I've told this story too many times.
But he said how were you guys off book?
The song's been out for less than 24 hours.
How do you guys know all the words?
So Gayle King was actually off book.
Yes.
Wow.
Like we both sing.
You who charmed my dad
with self-effacing jokes.
So do you think that by the transitive
property, this means that Oprah is a Swifty?
Perhaps. I think Oprah definitely
respects.
The Oprah Taylor interview is
like coming. Yeah, where's that?
That's got to be on the pipe. But unless
Tree Payne is like, no, we're not even talking to Oprah.
I mean, Taylor is like, there's no reason for her to do Oprah. She's is like, no, we're not even talking to. Oh, I mean, the Taylor's like,
there's no reason for her to do Oprah.
She's just not.
But also she's not one of those celebrities that like,
doesn't do interviews.
She doesn't do them that much.
Like I realized Taylor was on Seth to promote.
I think it was red.
She released,
she did Seth and Jimmy and SNL the same week for red.
They said she's in the building.
Well,
they said she's doing the triple crown Well, they said she's doing the Triple Crown,
Society America and the world.
Wow.

This episode is one of the most honest and raw interviews I've ever had.
We go deep into Jelly Roll's life story from being in and out of prison from the age of 13
to being one of today's biggest artists.
We talk about guilt, shame,
body image, and huge life transformations. I was a desperate, delusional dreamer,
and the desperate part got me in a lot of trouble. I encourage delusional dreamers.
Be a delusional dreamer. Just don't be a desperate, delusional dreamer. I just had such an
anger. I was just so mad at life. Everything that wasn't right was everybody's fault but mine. I had

All right.
I have an I don't think so honey to do.
You're going to understand that I've been flying a lot, but I actually think I might have done this one before.
But I actually don't care because I really need to say my truth
about this and I need people's behavior
to change. Okay, this is Matt Rodgers.
I don't think so, honey. His time starts now.
I don't think so, honey, when you
watch a violent, graphic,
scary movie on the plane.
Because I have
to then see it. When I
am diagonally behind you
but diagonally, I have no choice
but to watch what you watch.
And the person in front of me was watching
the latest Scream movie
and I was just catching out of my
eye the gore.
Watching, not for nothing, but
because I do think she survives, but Courtney Cox
gets stabbed. Watching
people get ripped apart by
truly Ghostface.
And I'm sitting there and now I'm in a state of anxiety in an already anxious and you're on your way to new york where this
film takes place 100 and i'm thinking well if i go on the subway what's gonna go down if i go to
the bodega i'm just saying like you have to be considerate about people that you are sitting
around when it comes to the content you're watching. I would love for you guys to watch
some gorgeous little rom-com I can see over your shoulder,
not this.
And that's one minute.
I just, it really put me in a state of anxiety.
Girl, I'm so sorry.
And I can't think of a more stressful scenario for you,
my sister.
I also was-
But I'm saying you know how to distract yourself. I was trying
to distract myself and also this was another
distracting thing. I wonder
if I should just say who it was,
but I sat on the plane next to
a person of note. An A-list
star. I was excited because...
Vegas to New York? Vegas to New York. I was like,
oh, I'm going to have this seat empty for me. Yay.
Then I realized the seat wasn't
filled because this person wasn't filled because
this person wasn't gonna board with everyone else so i was already like on one because we were
literally like sitting next i'm gonna tell you who it was and we're gonna bleep this out
oh see that reaction is also why i was like oh my gosh because i was like let's just say it's
an eccentric and I was like
we've actually dragged on this pod
before
Oscar winner
but basically like
I was like sitting next to them
and well one thing happened was
I sneezed and this person
of course went gazunta
fuck
off
that's vile gazunta of course, went, Gazunta. Fuck off.
That's vile.
Gazunta.
And I was just like, thank you.
And then we made eye contact and he registered that I knew who he was
and he goes, how you doing?
And I was like, good, dude.
I'm good.
And I turned around and looked out the window and never
looked back.
Y'all. I'm not spilling I turned around and looked out the window and never looked back. Y'all.
I'm not spilling the tea though.
I'm not spilling the tea.
Are you ready to do your I don't think so honey?
I am. And readers let me know if I have
done that one before but I know you feel me.
Alright. Bowen Yang
this is your I don't think so honey. Your time starts now.
I don't think so honey.
Calling a noise complaint
on my housewarming party girl we were
keeping it at a reasonable decibel level the room was 20 people tops not even 20 and it was a
saturday night yeah that's and like i'm sorry i'm hearing the people upstairs with their four little kids stomping around, screaming at all hours.
And I don't make a fucking peep.
I am church mouse over here.
364 days out of the year.
I'm going to throw a party once every other year,
perhaps I'm not a birthday person.
This is a very singular thing.
And I don't think we as a society have to structure our lives around families and couples.
It's the thing of, no, I'm not going to trade you seats on the plane so that you guys can
sit together because you should have just bought your tickets together.
Don't bank on people, on single people, warping, distorting their lives around people with
families.
And that's one minute.
I'm sick.
I'm actually sick of it.
Yeah, I completely understand. Do you have an idea of's one minute. I'm sick. I'm actually sick of it. Yeah. I completely understand.
Do you have an idea of who it was?
I don't.
I ran into a couple of my neighbors in the hallway the day of,
I said,
just letting you know,
I'm having a little get together.
It's not going to be too bad,
but if it is,
let me know,
like knock on my door.
So I gave them that up to directly come to me and be like,
Hey,
can you keep it down?
No problem.
If that happens i go
sure but if you're gonna be a fucking tattle and call downstairs i like the doorman is the one
doorman was the one who's like mr bowen we've received some complaints and i said okay some
complaints or a complaint that is so different some and i think that was his way of softening
it so that it wasn't like I don't want him to
seek out who... It could have been
one, it could have been two, whatever. Got it.
I'm just saying
if it's the people upstairs,
you guys...
You don't like to stand on what you have as little feet.
Speaking of couples
and units,
I love that you're cohabitating with other people.
I really love that.
I just think that I've lived next to across from the loudest, most toxic hetero couples
who get into the most insane arguments, screaming matches.
I don't, I've never once been like, can you guys keep it down?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They bring their people for fucking the games on Sunday.
I just turn on my white noise machine if I need to go to bed.
Saturday night is...
You can't say anything.
Saturday night is not for
fucking squares like those people.
Yeah, I would say
go figure it out. And also, like, not for nothing,
but, like...
It's called a white noise machine.
It's New York.
I actually promised you, my sister, and readers, Katie's Publishers finalists, nothing but like it's new york it's called a white noise machine it's new york it's new york
i actually promise you my sister and readers katie's publicist finalists i was being quite
reasonable i don't think that there's i'm not like a rah-rah like party guy listen as someone who has
lived above someone who had a problem when i simply just literally walked across my apartment.
When these people just are the kinds of people who are
sensitive to it and will make a big fuss
about it, this is what I'm going to say to you.
Don't be surprised if it happens again.
And maybe you're not cut out for this fucking
city. Gotta go. Gotta go.
I have a place where you can go.
The swamp. The swamp.
Rural town. Shrek. Hey Shrek. Hey Shrek, go back to the swamp. The swamp. Rural town. Shrek.
Yeah.
Hey, Shrek.
Hey, Shrek, go back to the swamp.
Duloc's not for you, Shrek.
Get out of Duloc.
It's such a perfect town.
I'm pro Farquaad.
I love city people.
Love Lithgow.
Yeah, love Lithgow.
He ate down in that film,
and I was pro Farquaad.
The villains of Shrek were always slaying.
Lithgow, Jennifer Saunders being fairy godmother
singing holding out for a hero was puss in boots a villain puss in boots was or was he just kind
of mischievous kind of enemies to lovers please tell your lovers and friends which happened at
usher that ursher john and ludic amy did it again anyway i'm that might have been my neighbors just
now hearing me go off, but I don't
think it was them. They seem nice.
I think it's the people upstairs who
really is like a seven-person family.
And I'm going... Which was their
choice. Don't punish me for
being a single man
who was able to... I'm sorry,
but I shouldn't be punished for
getting this apartment.
You said that.
First of all... Single-handedly. Ooh, you said that. And I'll,
first of all,
like single handedly,
if you think I did it all alone,
if you think it is them,
because there's no one below you,
right?
No,
that's just a store.
So it's definitely.
And I,
and I think I'm never hearing any noise from downstairs in any apartment that
I've been in.
I've never heard downstairs noise.
Yeah.
Because correct me if I'm wrong,
but like the noise doesn't travel up. I don't even know.
I don't know. I can't even begin
to get into this. I'm more
of a Caravaggio boy. I want to
be in pictures. You are a Caravaggio boy.
That's not really how I look. I think it's
kind of giving this. See, this
boy is doing Caravaggio. That's kind of
Matt Rogers. I thought that was Benny Drama.
Oh, yeah. Benny Drama is Caravaggio
boy. Happy birthday to him. Happy birthday to him. And also That's kind of Matt Rogers. I thought that was Benny Drama. Oh, yeah. Benny Drama is Caravaggio.
Happy birthday to him.
Happy birthday to him.
And also, wow, I can't believe I've gone this long.
This is Bowen Yang's birthday week.
Oh, stop.
You know me.
I'm not a birthday guy.
Jesus here.
Someone will betray me.
Welcome to it.
You think so?
No, I'm just kidding. Name the top three people who might betray you this year.
Lorne Michaels.
Engel Wodum.
Jared
Frieder.
He's not going to betray you.
He's so sick this week. What happened?
I don't know. He got some sort of stomach
flu. I hope not from my party.
I hope not from your party either.
Oh my God. Cole Escola
came by and held
court until like 4 in the morning
after Daylight Savings. So it was
5 a.m. Oh, that's why you
got a noise complaint. No, we were
winding it down. It went
till 5? Well, it was just me, Cole,
Josh, Whitaker, and Tom
Nye. It was just like the five of us just
kiki and caca-ing laughing. Cole, Josh, Whitaker, and Tom Nye. It was just like the five of us just kiki and caca-ing laughing.
Cole, I want to out them so bad for,
they want to post something
in response to all the news
that I think is actually genius,
but they will never do.
Wait, maybe, no.
Here's the thing.
They are an ocean of secrets.
They are, and I don't want to blow up their spot,
but God, we were crying laughing
because, and I said, want to blow up their spot, but God, we were crying laughing because, and I said,
Cole, this could heal the world
and resolve this conflict in a
real way. And they would go, no, I'm not going to
do it. But if you see
Cole in the street, Cole has the answers.
Cole has the answers. Cole has maybe
the funniest, the only funny thing
that could possibly come out of this situation.
And even if
