Starting point is 00:00:00 This is an iHeart Podcast. I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast Betrayal. Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone. Most of all, his wife, Caroline. He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me. How far would he go to cover up what he'd done? The fact that you lied is absolutely horrific.
Starting point is 00:00:26 And quite frankly, I question how many other women are out there that may bring forward allegations in the future. Listen to Betrayal on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Clayton English. I'm Greg Glott. And this is season two of the War on Drugs podcast. Last year, a lot of the problems of the drug war this year, a lot of the biggest names in music and sports. It's kind of star-studded a little bit, man.
Starting point is 00:00:55 We met them at their homes, we met them at their recording studios. Stories matter and it brings a face to them. It makes it real. It really does. It makes it real. Listen to new episodes of the War on Drugs Podcast Season Two on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.
Starting point is 00:01:12 The OGs of uncensored motherhood are back and batter than ever. I'm Erica. And I'm Mila. And we're the hosts of the Good Moms Bad Choices Podcast, brought to you by the Black Effect Podcast Network every Wednesday. Yeah, we're moms.
Starting point is 00:01:24 But not your mommy. Historically, men talk too much. And women have quietly listened. And all that stops here. If you like witty women, then this is your tribe. Listen to the Good Moms, Bad Choices podcast every Wednesday. On the Black Effect Podcast Network,
Starting point is 00:01:38 the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you go to find your podcast. We asked parents who adopted teens to share their journey. We just kind of knew from the beginning that we were family. They showcased a sense of love that I never had before. I mean, he's not only my parent, like he's like my best friend.
Starting point is 00:01:57 At the end of the day, it's all been worth it. I wouldn't change a thing about our lives. Learn about adopting a teen from foster care. Visit adoptUSkids.org to learn more. Brought to you by AdoptUSkids, the US Department of Health and Human Services, and the Ad Council. Look, man.
Starting point is 00:02:14 Where? Oh, I see, wow. Bowen, look over there. Wow, is that culture? Yes. Oh my goodness. Wow. Las culturistas. Ding dong, las culturistas calling.
Starting point is 00:02:27 Mmm. I just popped a little treat into the mouth, which is where those things go. I'm so happy that you said that because one of the things I was most excited to get on here and talk to you about is I have, well, first of all, flashback to last year. The snack of the summer was cucumbers chopped up with some hot sauce and a little bit of salt and pepper. There is a new snack of the summer. No! Tell us.
Starting point is 00:02:55 This is my honor to say. The snack of the summer is frozen green grapes. Frozen green grapes. You better freeze your grapes up. Take them out, put them in a bowl, let them soften a little bit, pop, pop, pop. It's as if you're eating dessert. I'm thrilled to share this.
Starting point is 00:03:16 It's nature's jewelry in a way, don't you think? Yes, because you actually are more beautiful while you do it. Just like everyone's more beautiful with jewelry. It's rule of culture number four. Everyone's more beautiful with jewelry. First of all, that is a huge announcement. Congratulations to frozen grapes. Green grapes, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:03:37 No red. It's just that I can't be sure yet. I know for a fact that frozen green grapes are. I need to put something out there. Why they red grapes, red wine, green grapes, white wine. You don't call them, I don't think you call them white grapes, do you? Can I say I call them purple grapes? Interesting. But also I'm color deficient in the eyes.
Starting point is 00:04:01 No, you're being self-abler. You're so right. You can't invalidate you calling them purple grapes just because you're quote'm color deficient in the eyes. No, you're being self-abless. You're so right. You can't invalidate you calling them purple groups just because you're quote unquote color deficient. Here's what I would say. If you look at it and say it's red, you're definitely right because I'm color deficient. And that's not self-abless.
Starting point is 00:04:16 It's just me knowing my, it's me knowing my affliction. I love the word affliction. You're actually, you should unafflict yourself because they are actually purple Okay, most of the time why did you say red then knowing full well? Because I call them red grapes because that's what they're called at the grocery store. Oh, are they real? Okay, so that's where we sort of diverge in the woods because I don't go in there What was the last time you went? In a grocery store? By yourself.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Probably one time I was making buffalo chicken dip for some events. So this is like Super Bowl? I'll go in the grocery store if I need to make buffalo chicken dip. Basically. And what do you get? What do you get? What are the ingredients? Oh girl, there's a whole list that I have saved probably both in my notes app
Starting point is 00:05:02 and on my phone as a picture. But if I had to say off the top of my head, you need your rotisserie chicken, shred that on up. That's your shortcut. A little bit of this cheese, a little bit of that cheese, a little bit of this cheese, a little bit of that cheese, some ranch, some blue cheese, some feta crumbles. I'm gonna go with Frank's Red Hot.
Starting point is 00:05:19 That is so, so, so fab. And would you agree that rotisserie chicken is nominated this year at the Las Culturistas Culture Awards? We're not sure for what category yet. But I think it's a front runner. I just wanna say that I suddenly felt a surge of buzz for rotisserie chicken.
Starting point is 00:05:43 Think about how amazing rotisserie chicken is. The smell, the look. You skip so many steps and so many recipes by buying rotisserie chicken. And the thing is, it is monoculture. Yes. People forget that. Like, I think that rotisserie chicken is a TV show.
Starting point is 00:05:59 I think it's a film series. I think it's so much more than just the most straightforward chicken you could really even get, especially at the grocery store. But it's for much more than just the most straightforward chicken you could really even get, especially at the grocery store. But it's for a quadrant, wouldn't you say? 100 percent. Hmm. I just want to quickly shout out the treat that I popped into my mouth. Truly, this is not an ad.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Eatin' Botanicals, they sent me, they did send me like a fun little PR box, but they have really good marijuana products. They sent me some too. I'm so excited. You are endorsing the stripper. I'm endorsing the stripper. Daily Elevation is like... And their fixer-upper. Those are like their big hits. And then they have the nightly nightcap, which we took on Fire Island. Yes, we did. This past week. And... Put us right to bed.
Starting point is 00:06:43 I didn't sleep super well just because I was jet lagged that night, but then I took it later in LA and was out like a light slept like a baby. Worked like a charm on me in Fire Island. I mean, I have been sleeping so, and this is, I don't mean to brag. I don't mean to brag. No, please, you must glow. But lately I have been sleeping so well. I'm so happy.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Which I will say, listen, it makes the mornings difficult because I'm not the easiest riser. Like some, like it's either I rock it out of bed or it's really hard for me. I don't have like a routine. And my mornings have been tough. I think I'm just like adjusting to a new space literally. So, you know, I'm finding it.
Starting point is 00:07:22 I'm sleeping so well that it's hard to get up. Does that make sense? I've slept. I've slept and I can't get up. Yeah. It's sort of like when I'm down, I'm down. But maybe that's also the amount of energy I'm expending, which is a lot. Well, you are newly a city rat once again,
Starting point is 00:07:39 and you are just kind of scurrying about and grabbing pizza, grabbing a little piece, a little piece, a little Greek coffee cup. You're really going all around. And so you're just readjusting. You're metabolizing the city in a new way. It's been two cold brew mornings.
Starting point is 00:07:55 And I think that's too much for me. I think it's I've been over caffeinated a lot. That's okay. It's New York, baby. You're so right. The push the pull of the city, the city that swirls you, dips you, then kisses you right on the mouth. New York. That city of life. What is this the city of?
Starting point is 00:08:15 It's the city of life. It's the city of life. That's the only word that really encompasses all that New York does. Can I just say, I mean, this is a preview for me. I don't think so, honey. But ain't no city that New York does. Can I just say, I mean, this is a preview for I Don't Think So, Honey, but ain't no city like New York City. No. This is the best city in the world. It really is the best city in the world.
Starting point is 00:08:33 I hope you're not putting it up on a pedestal right now to yank them down later with your I Don't Think So, Honey. No, that's not what's happening. New York is really in the news. It's really in the news because of Mayer. Oh, yes. Because of Mayer. Because of Mayer.
Starting point is 00:08:44 Can we not? Okay, so this is my plan. Don't even rank Cuomo. Don't rank Cuomo. Zoran number one. Zoran number one. And probably nothing else. Maybe. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:08:56 Let's see. We need to put all the chips on Zoran. Don't you feel? I feel like if we all solidified behind Zoran, we actually would have a serious race. Well, this is what the Working Families party, if you are a fan of them, if you align with their values. I don't know how Ranked Choice works. Girl, I vote for who I want to win.
Starting point is 00:09:19 I do the mayor thing by American Idol rules. They played Kelly's audition. She has always been herself, that girl, that woman, that legend. Because you know what she kept saying? What? What did she say? Y'all? In her audition? Well, no, y'all, of course. But then she was she said, Cool Beans. Cool Beans.
Starting point is 00:09:36 Cool Beans. Well, she was famous for Cool Beans. Well, I forgot about her association with Cool Beans until until I saw this clip again. And I was like, right. Like, Kelly was one of the big pushers with Cool Beans until I saw this clip again. And I was like, right, like Kelly was one of the big pushers of Cool Beans and Cool Beans is making a return. I can feel it. There was actually a time when Cool Beans
Starting point is 00:09:55 was dangerously close to becoming Kelly's whole personality there on American Idol. Of course. And they were doing Cool Beans with her too much. And I'm like, dude, stop making her the cool beans girl, because this girl is the American. I would have like true opinions on this as a gay 12 year old. I was like, I see what they're trying to do with her in this cool beans thing. They're trying to minimize her. And then they tried to say, duck, duck, duck.
Starting point is 00:10:18 Do you remember this? This is what a duck duck. I thought it was walk a walk. No, at one point, she was like, Simon said something to her after on edition like, yeah, I didn't remember you from before, but you were good. And just said it like that. And she goes, uh, uh, and she didn't know what to do. So she very slowly made her way back to the green room. And she gets there and they were like, what just went down?
Starting point is 00:10:40 And she said something like, he said what he said, and I didn't know what to do. So I was like, ducka, ducka, ducka. And then they tried to make ducka, ducka, ducka a thing. I was like, this girl can't be ducka, ducka, ducka and cool beans, not singing R-E-S-P-E-C-T like that. Ultimately, I won though, you know what I mean? Here I sit on the throne of Kelly fandom, and I look at all of my kingdom and I say, I won. So this is all a conquest to you being a Kelly fan.
Starting point is 00:11:10 All of it is. I'm so Machiavellian. Cuz I care! Congrats to this scrappy woman. Happy for her. Taylor Swift. Happy for her. No, truly happy for her. Absolutely. In the words of Baldi and Daud, we can finally admit to preferring the superior version of style, which is...
Starting point is 00:11:34 No, all of 1989 is back. We are so back with all of 1989. I don't think I listened to the Taylor's version. I walked away from 1989 for a little bit because of TV. And this is, which is not to say that I love. Is it over now? And the vault tracks. I've been going in hard on reputation in the last six months, especially after this announcement.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Just like, what an album. And she's right. Like, how could she improve on this? I did the same thing. I did something bad is so slept on. I did something bad is a crazy little freaky little weird little genius pop song. It's so bizarre. It's number three on that album. Like it's early and it's really weird. If you listen to Reputation in a Vacuum again, she went for it.
Starting point is 00:12:18 Like there were risks. Oh yeah. I mean, if it's good enough for Cynthia Revo and Shoshana Bean to cover, never forget. That actually was still on my mind. I couldn't get past that song on my rewatch of it. And then I watched the Cynthia and Shoshana thing and I was like, yeah, I mean, this song had a moment, but didn't have its moment. It's so kooky. I love it.
Starting point is 00:12:42 No, it deserves its moment. And why is it feels so good? I remember she did it. No, it deserves its moment. Why does it feel so good? I remember she did it in Reputation World Tour as well. I was there in the rain. And she really was feeling that song in this way that was so reputation-era. Just like, fuck you. I'm this girl. You know what I mean? And I was just like, yeah, she really believed this. She really is like she acted.
Starting point is 00:13:07 She was committed to the bit. That's one of the chicest, shall I say, joker modes that we've had in pop culture recently, because it was controlled. It was like, I love Joker era. I love villain era. I love dark era. Mm hmm. You've had you've had that. Have I? You when you were in college doing Murat Saad, that was your villain era. Mm-hmm. You've had that. Have I? When you were in college doing Muratsod, that was your villain era. Oh, yeah, but not in a way where...
Starting point is 00:13:30 Yeah, you know what? Actually, yes, that was my dark era. Yeah, I don't know. I can't stomach it. I can't stomach, like, fuck you to everybody. Like, I just can't... No. That's not who we are.
Starting point is 00:13:41 It's because you're in your heart. You're ooey gooey. You know what I mean? You think? We were ruthless towards each other playing Mario Party though, and I want to say that that is, I think, an area where we... That's okay. I think we truly go for each other during Mario Party, because we both know it's war, like in the game.
Starting point is 00:13:56 It's love. And I know that you make moves against me, because you know I'll forgive you. Like, whenever you get the opportunity in Mario Party to like steal coins, you always come for me, your girl, because you know I'll forgive you. Like whenever you get the opportunity in Mario Party to like steal coins, you always come for me, your girl, because you know I'll forgive you. So unfortunately I had to pay you back and I took your star away. And I spent 50 good coins on that.
Starting point is 00:14:13 Who like is the more punished person in this dynamic? I didn't say there was a more punished person. I said that we are at war. And that is an area where we are at war and it's okay. Matt turned the tide of the game last week. We were playing Mario Party on Fire Island because it's been rainy there and so it's been a lot of indoor time with the house, which I actually do prefer. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:34 I'm gonna say. But we were playing Mario Party Jamboree. Really good stuff. Really great game. Really great game. One of a game that Celestium loves so much that they joined the Discord for it. What kind of things go down on the Discord?
Starting point is 00:14:49 On the Discord, it's like, does anyone want to log on and play a game live? Oh, nice. It's really fun. That is one thing I missed out on in my video game playing days is the live playing, but also it's probably fine. I would have been so hooked and also probably gotten weird with people. And the Rogers DNA, Chelsea Ryan Rogers, gaming diva. Legends. She and I fuck with each other on that level. Really? Yeah, I love that. But she plays WoW. She's still a WoW girl. I play it's rival. It's competitor, Final Fantasy 14. And I get her, you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:15:28 It's like, I could spend a whole, it's not that we're depressed. It's that we could spend a whole day in indoors playing these games, building community through crafting and through, you know, battles. I dream of a day, it is my dream for me to think of you, my sister and my actual blood sister to play together the same game.
Starting point is 00:15:47 I wonder if there's ever a way we can bridge this gap and find a game that we both love playing. I think Mario Party is already there. It's right in front of us. Wow, that's so crazy. You can live play Mario Party. What happens if like the classic thing happens of like, you know, some... Do you speak to people? No. You can't speak to people. There's the Switch app where you can do game chat. And you chat through the app. It's actually kind of incredible technology. And we are recording this days before the Switch 2 launch. Mmm.
Starting point is 00:16:19 Huge moment in gaming history, personally, for me. What makes this so momentous? It's just a really big deal to have an open world Mario Kart. It's where we've had our first new Mario Kart game, truly new Mario Kart game in, I would say, over a decade. Since whenever the Wii U, no, yeah, since whenever the Wii U version came out, Mario Kart 8. So it's just been a while. It's been a long time since we've had a new Mario Kart.
Starting point is 00:16:48 And you, I know you love Mario Kart. I love Mario Kart. I mean, my thing is I just like when everything was a little bit simpler. It's it's OK. It's not that it's not simpler. It's not that it's it's just more needs to happen. You know what I mean? Yeah. What do you mean more needs to happen. You know what I mean? Yeah. What do you mean more needs to happen? I'm saying in the time that's passed since you thought games were simpler,
Starting point is 00:17:11 like games have had to soup themselves up more in the industry as a way of pushing the genre forward. I mean, I was truly one of those kids that was like Super Mario. Like I was playing the super Mario, the original games. Yeah. Like the first time Donkey Kong even stepped onto the stage. So do you know who Donkey Kong, who is the woman that Donkey Kong? Predator had kidnapped. Do you know who that woman is? Who is she? People think it's Peach.
Starting point is 00:17:44 It's Pauline. And she is now the mayor, the Conti mayor. Oh, that's Pauline? And lounge singer of New Donk City. But she is, it's a throwback to the original Donkey Kong, where the Raven-haired woman who was kidnapped by Donkey Kong was Pauline. I have always wondered who she was because you play as Pauline often. I love Pauline.
Starting point is 00:18:03 There is a Pauline hive out there. Yeah, I think I might be in that, but you know I always play with Rosalina. You actually would love Super Mario Galaxy where you learn of this mystery and the story of Rosalina. See, can I say something though? Something about Rosalina is losing me a little bit. You can't just be like, I stan Rosalina, but wait, okay, fine. No, no, I actually can. First of all, she's fictional.
Starting point is 00:18:25 So I'm actually gonna tear her limb from limb because I'm not hurting anyone. I don't love that she flies. I kind of don't get the flying thing. I guess this is why I need to watch. This is why you need to play the game. Galaxy, is that what it's called? Yes, Galaxy.
Starting point is 00:18:35 One of the best games ever made. And I did say that that was one of my favorite words. The title of this episode is Galaxy. Is Galaxy. I love when something is galactic or in a galaxy. There is an ASMRtist by the name of Juntel Risspring, some would call her the mother of ASMR. Oh my god, some would?
Starting point is 00:18:52 And she is a Russian icon. She actually has an insane story. She was absolutely the victim of a human trafficking scheme. Oh my god. That is part of her story of coming to America, and she shares the inherent detail on her other blog, her lifestyle blog, Sassy Masha. Yes, Sassy Masha. So she she kind of like puts on a Russian accent in her ASMR videos
Starting point is 00:19:18 because it does tickle your brain and she's consciously doing it because she chops up her grammar a little bit, I think, because she just knows that it like... She knows what buttons to push. So at one point she's doing it, she does a target haul, this is years ago, and she does a target haul and she went for a back to school haul and she is whispering and then she brings out this like a space themed notebook and then she says the this, like a space-themed notebook. And then she says the words, this book has the theme of galaxy. And it makes...
Starting point is 00:19:53 I think of that anytime you brought up the word galaxy. Because it's... This book has the theme of galaxy is such a beautiful sentence, wouldn't you say? This book has the theme of galaxy. This book has the theme of Galaxy. This episode has the theme of Galaxy. What is your favorite galaxy? Andromeda.
Starting point is 00:20:11 Really? Yeah. What's yours? Naboo. Girl, that's a planet. Dang. Dang, girl. You got me. Star Wars galaxy. A galaxy far, far away. Far, far away. I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast, Betrayal.
Starting point is 00:20:35 Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone. Most of all, his wife, Caroline. He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me. Caroline's husband was living another life behind the scenes. He betrayed his oath to his family and to his community. She said you left bruises, pulled her hair, that type of thing. No. How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done?
Starting point is 00:21:04 You're unable to keep track of all your lies, and quite frankly, No. How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done? You're unable to keep track of all your lies and quite frankly, I question how many other women may bring forward allegations in the future. This season of Betrayal investigates one officer's decades of deception. Lies that left those closest to him questioning everything they thought they knew. Listen to Betrayal on the iHeart radio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This Pride Month, we are not just celebrating,

MUSIC MUSIC Star Wars, you know, people out here saying that Andor was the best show of all time.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Of all time? There are Andor people who will publicly be really, really, really trying to rally up the troops. Andor is huge in the Star Wars community and beyond. Of all time, people are saying that. I mean, you know what I'm saying in a hyperbolic way. They can't believe how good Andor is. But sure they can. They love Star Wars. They love Star Wars.
Starting point is 00:25:27 They love Star Wars. They got a talented guy doing it. Yeah. What's the incredulity coming from? Do you know what I mean? 100%. Believe it. Calm down. Something's good. Believe it. You can't believe it. I can't believe how good that was. You sound stupid. You sound stupid. You've been watching good movies forever. You can't believe it.

We're living separately. We're living, oh, interesting. I would say that they really freaked it
Starting point is 00:26:16 with the pork design. Everyone saw the pork and was like, damn, that's cute. That was one of the most winning elements of that film, I would say. Last Jedi. Yes. The Porg was a great invention. And I believe earns the film sort of it falls into the positive category. I love that movie anyway. I love that movie too.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Anyone that's disputing The Last Jedi, remember that it was the Porgs and kind of get a grip. Get a grip. Also, if you hate Last Jedi, then you deserve to watch all of the Knives Out films two weeks after the general public. Yeah. You don't get Rian Johnson, okay?
Starting point is 00:27:02 You really don't. You fucked up. You will be on the wrong side of history. And can I say, just to compliment Gracie's dad, I am out here. I have always loved Rise of Skywalker because but apparently people really don't don't like I love all of them. What I loved about Rise of Skywalker was it felt like it was the campiest one. Like when they when they kiss bitch, I screamed. I was like... It was so gaggy.
Starting point is 00:27:26 I will never forget sitting there being like, there's no way they'll kiss. Oh my God, they kissed. I loved it. It came out of nowhere, but also, of course. Loved it. I love kissing and then dying. A Little Fall of Rain Coated.
Starting point is 00:27:42 A Little Fall of Rain Coated. A song I sometimes will listen to out of nowhere. Like, I could be having a wonderful summer day. Like, I could be walking along the streets, listening to, let's call it up tempo pop music. You know, my spirits are up. And then something will happen to me. Like, some part of my brain, like some synapse will fire.
Starting point is 00:28:00 And I know I'll have to listen to a little fall of rain. That is your... That's a beautiful thing for have to listen to a little fall of rain. That is your... That's a beautiful thing for you to return to. Sorry, I just got off a plane. I'm so tired. I'm back! I'm back! I'm back to T-Word. I'm saying tired again. It's the summer.
Starting point is 00:28:18 Reclaim it. Reclaim it. Honestly, when it's the truth, it's the truth. I can't believe that. Can I just ask you something? Yeah. So did you fly back to New York to get your switch? I flew back to New York because originally I was supposed to come back yesterday and I was supposed to leave
Starting point is 00:28:39 Thursday night or the next day on Friday because I had something booked this week, but then those things fell off. But I did want to get my Switch 2 in case I can intercept it. It's so worth it. So ultimately, I could have sent you the Switch. No. You could have told me, because you didn't have to fly all the way back here to get the Switch.
Starting point is 00:28:59 I literally flew all the way back here to be in my own damn home because I have not really been here the last two weeks. You want to be in your space. Yeah, 100%. I love loving my home that much. Isn't that nice? Oh, I wish this for everyone. When you can say, this is my bed and those are my things. Like you sing a ballad around your house. Oh, wow. I'm going to start writing that.
Starting point is 00:29:23 It's just about being- My room. This is my room. These are my things. I think it could be huge, actually. That is our generation's look at this photograph. Yeah. Look at this photograph.
Starting point is 00:29:38 We haven't had a song that reminds us all we're living in a time. We haven't had that, and we also haven't had a song in a while that is basically expressing the idea, look at this. This is my room. This is my room. These are my things. I don't know why it gets harder every,
Starting point is 00:29:56 how I have higher every now and then. You and Patty Harrison needs to duet in that. I am always saying we need to duet. We need, we really need a knight of cabaret. Ooh, what an idea. Call it Maddie. Maddie. M-A-T-T-I.
Starting point is 00:30:14 I like it. Maddie Rogerson. Maddie Rogerson. Oh, wow. That's really the power couple we've always needed. It's me and Paddy. Period. Imagine we stunned in a new photo leaving like via Corrada.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Yeah, I see it. Don't you? I wonder how many times we'd have to walk in and out of a car before someone would take a picture of us and say that we stun going into via Corrada. Like how many times going back and forth and back and forth and back and forth? I think everyone hires their own paps. So it doesn't matter. You know what Charlie said?
Starting point is 00:30:48 Everyone else does it constantly. She did, she did say that. On the remix. She called out all the girls. Oh wait, now that's on the remix, is it? No, I think that's on the regular version of Sometimes. I just wanna be loved.
Starting point is 00:31:05 Wait a minute. And sometimes I just want to be loved. Wait a minute. As of this episode release, you can go to the artist's pre-sale for the culture awards. Wow. Use the ticket code, CULCH. CULCH. C-U-L-G-C-H. We have to actually make sure that we etch and stone something, which is that the trophy itself is called the cult. The cult.
Starting point is 00:31:29 And we just want to make sure that people know that like the Emmy, the Oscar, the Tony, like you can actually think about like that physical object and say those are those things. The same applies here. When you see that bronze West Elm doorstop over that like cylindrical gold. Yep. Over that cylindrical base. Base. That is the culture.
Starting point is 00:31:50 Yes. But I guess you would not call the program the cultures. No, no, this is the last culture. This is culture awards to LCCAs. You can win a culture there. Yeah. I like that for us. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:02 I like that the statue has its own identity, its own name, its own way of being referenced separately. Yeah. Yes. Do you think in the third, like, say, not next year, but maybe the year after, we suddenly reveal that the cult has eyes? Oh my God. And we slowly reveal over time that the cult isn't like anthropomorphic thing
Starting point is 00:32:25 and actually has an inner life. And by the time we're done with the culture awards, it's like a fully realized Oscar worthy character. I love that. I think the cult should absolutely, I think, just come to life in some way. But that's what you mean by the cult has eyes. It doesn't have to have like eyes eyes. I think every year we need to show a little bit more about the cultures personality
Starting point is 00:32:48 Interesting to make it by the end a franchise. I'm always thinking in terms of how to make us more money Bowen Yeah, I love that. I am always constantly have my eye on franchising this empire Mm-hmm. Let's make the cult a character, write the film, sell that shit to, I don't know, whoever's gonna beg for it the hardest, Disney. Right, right. Ride this to the moon, babe.
Starting point is 00:33:14 I will say, I know you're doing a bit, but it's like, I'm seeing our girl, Page Disorder, out here selling like big t-shirts for sleep or something. And I go, we would never, we could never do that, could we? Like, and I'm saying like, this is like highest praise and compliments to the sky for the for like the entrepreneurs and the entrepreneurs who are like putting pushing product. I don't think you and I could like have like a prime drink.
Starting point is 00:33:40 We don't we can't we can't like for yourself. OK, that's because I sell I sell Big Bro and Lil Bro like tank tops. You know what I'm saying? That's great. That is merch, which is different from, let me sell you an item with its own... Product line. Product line, something with function, you know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:00 I don't think you and I are a lifestyle home brand. I don't think you and I are glassware. I don't think you and I are a lifestyle home brand. I don't think you and I are glassware. I don't think you and I are a big plate. I don't think you and I are serving spoon. I think you and I are experiences and indulgences. We are only gonna make our money from using our voices and what we produce with our voice, much like Taylor Swift.
Starting point is 00:34:20 I'm trying to think if we could have something, maybe we would do like a gum. If we did Matt and Bowen gum. That's actually really good. Can I say that actually might be a good idea? Like, are you chewing Matt and Bowen? We should do chewing gum. Chewing out, like chewing out.
Starting point is 00:34:37 That would actually also be really fun to taste test. Got to go. What's work today? We have to go try all the gum. That's really good. What would our gum taste like? You think this is again, something that we have to agree on. Um, I think what I had an idea.
Starting point is 00:34:58 Okay. It's two different flavors. It's split in half. That's really good. What are those flavors, though? We have to think about this. It's like coconut lime. Coconut lime?
Starting point is 00:35:12 I love that. You know, like, just like your standard sort of like duos, your iconic duos. Strawberry, banana, you know. Oh, you think there's a whole bunch of different flavors? Yeah. Oh, well, I mean, we can start with, we can start with a very specific one.
Starting point is 00:35:25 What do you think is our flagship flavor? Hmm. I think you're like minty fresh. Mm hmm. Like broad appeal. And I am what that's. I've never had something kinder said to me that my gum brand is Mass Appeal? Thank you. Now, you are one of the most massively appealing girls. What gum are you?
Starting point is 00:35:54 I am a touch of cream. You know, mint and cream. A touch of cream. There was so much joy coming off of your face when you said that. You threw your little gaze to the side and you were like, a touch of cream. A touch of cream. There was so much joy coming off of your face when you said that. You threw your little gaze to the side and you were like, -"A touch of cream." -"A touch of cream." I think you are a touch of cream. Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 00:36:13 I had no idea that we were gonna create this business today. Is it called something? Like, is it... What's the name of our gum brand? Friendship. Friendship gum? Friendship gum. What brings people together? I'm dead ass. Gum. More than gum. Nothing. All right, so we're gonna get started on this.
Starting point is 00:36:28 On friendship gum. Friendship gum is actually, Matt and Bowen's friendship gum is, oh my god. Yeah, that's gonna be huge. Thank you Paige Disorbo, by the way, for inspiring us. Because I knew we were way more Paige than we were giving ourselves credit for. Sure. Oh, by the way, for inspiring us. Cause I knew we were way more paged than we were giving ourselves credit for. Sure. I'm Andrea Gunning, host of the podcast, Betrayal.
Starting point is 00:36:54 Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone. Most of all, his wife, Caroline. He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me. Caroline's husband was living another life behind the scenes. He betrayed his oath to his family and to his community. She said you left bruises, pulled her hair, that type of thing. No.
Starting point is 00:37:21 How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done? You're unable to keep track of all your lies, and quite frankly, No. How far would Joel go to cover up what he'd done? You're unable to keep track of all your lies, and quite frankly, I question how many other women may bring forward allegations in the future.

How should I start Summerhouse? Because I'm not super familiar with that universe. Do I start from the beginning? But it seems like it's a different show entirely in its early season. I'm not really the best person to ask because I very much just like join. Yeah, ask Jared because I've just joined Summerhouse in progress. And oh, okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:17 All right. Anna says season three. All right. Love. And it says start season three. So I'm not really the best person to ask because I very much just like join. Yeah. Because I've just joined Summer House in Progress. And, oh, Anna. Okay, okay, all right. Anna says season three.
Starting point is 00:41:28 All right, left, thank you. Producer Anna says start season three, okay. Because that is when Paige comes in. Because that is when Paige comes in. God, she really is that girl. So you would say, Anna, that Paige is the unequivocal best thing about the show? I would agree.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Yes, she says yes, okay. I mean, she's a star. Like, what can we say? Definitely, like, there is a serotonin hit that happens when she comes onto screens. Oh, yeah. I mean, I'm gonna say there's like a Hepburn quality there. Audrey, I should say. Yeah, I mean, there's a little star quality in there.
Starting point is 00:41:59 A lot of star quality. By a little, I mean a lot. Yeah, I mean... No, no, no, I don't mean to... I mean, I get it. I mean, I think that we are, I mean, I was calling them the Jackie O and JFK, the Kennedys of Bravo. And then, you know.
Starting point is 00:42:14 Yeah, and then what, and then look what happened. In being forced to pick a side as we all are whenever there is any breakup. And now she's finding her Aristotle, Onassis. Ooh, he could be anywhere. God, isn't it? I still can't get over that. Aristotle Onassis. Well, fucking Jackie's sister.
Starting point is 00:42:34 And then going, just kidding, I'm marrying her. Sorry, go. No, these people. Politicians are so sick. They're so sick. I actually think I would entertain again watching like a... Well, I guess you know what? This is the diplomat. I have to start with the diplomat. I'm interested in the diplomat too.
Starting point is 00:42:52 I was saying I'm interested for the first time in a while again in like a DC political thriller. And apparently the diplomat is really good. I hear it's fun. And it's got my girl in it. Carrie! And Allison. is really good and it's got my girl in it. Carrie. And Allison. Who came together to SNL with Kristen. It was like a Pomeranian diplomat sort of like...
Starting point is 00:43:17 trio. And I was like, you girls go off. Do you know what I actually thought today? For some reason, as I presented last night at the Gotham Awards, I was thinking about presenting. And I remember one of the best, like presenting... Maya and Kristen? No, it was, Carrie Russell and Ray Romano did a bit a few years ago at the Golden Globes and they had perfect chemistry.
Starting point is 00:43:36 And I was like, that's hard. Because when you're up there doing the presenting thing, you can't really hear. Right. It's really hard. Yeah, it's like a... It's a little dance you do. It's a little dance you do, but I'm sure you pulled it off with aplomb.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Oh, I acquitted myself. It was really fun. It was a really fun evening. Like I liked the Gotham Awards. They, it's all new series. So that's like the theme there. It's just like, you know, the things nominated are all in first year series. And the little boy from adolescence one,
Starting point is 00:44:07 and they were just showing clips from adolescence. And I was like, dear God, I was having a heart attack even sitting there watching like the 10 second clip. Yeah. Yeah. No, I know. And then it was just, it was just crazy. But like, I'm like, yeah, that should win. I'm sitting there and I'm like, for sure.
Starting point is 00:44:23 The way I feel right now, give it that. Ooh, give it that. Totally, totally. Well, oh, just to get us quickly back on track, there might be some confusion about what the taping is. So the special taping is versus the show. So it's not gonna be live, unfortunately, for now. No. Or not even unfortunately. I think fortunately, it's, we have some time
Starting point is 00:44:47 to work out the kinks, because this is our first time doing this, this way. And we are taping the show on July 17th at the Orpheum in Los Angeles. And then on August 5th, it will be on Bravo, at 9 p.m. Eastern and Pacific. And then the next day will be on Peacock. So that is the brass tacks. Go. Eastern and Pacific. And then the next day we'll be on Peacock. So that is the brass tacks.
Starting point is 00:45:07 Go for the tickets now. Use the code word, coach. And then you come in LA, July 17th. It's on Bravo, August 5th. The next day Peacock. Hopefully immediately. I think so. I think it's your standard eight hours
Starting point is 00:45:21 or six hours from when it airs. Did you see the Survivor 50 cast? I did. What do you think? I think kind of crazy to bring Kyle back. Kind of nuts. Yeah, I'm happy for Camilla. I am curious to see if Joe switches up his gameplay or actually, like, plays the game at all.
Starting point is 00:45:45 I love Joe. I am... All back from season 48, by the way. All back from season 48. For those of you casually following the news of Survivor 50. And there's two yet to be determined, yet to be announced people from 49. Okay, got it.
Starting point is 00:46:01 This just reaffirms the idea that I have to actually watch the Mike White season. Oh, we started it. The day reaffirms the idea that I have to I have to actually watch the Mike White season We started it the day after you left in the pines Aaron and I watched the first episode of season 37 David versus Goliath Which is the season Mike White initially competes on? Mm-hmm. It is a really fun watch and they also brought back Angelina from that season who's such a blast And this guy Christian that was a really good season where multiple people should be brought back. Season 48, I don't get bringing anyone back besides Camilla to be honest with you. I feel like we've seen, we've literally seen him win Kyle and Joe just played. And I feel like we get Joe.
Starting point is 00:46:38 I was so shocked by a lot of the new era choices. But when you think about the old era, like, yeah, I'll miss some people. But I was watching Jeff Probst, like actually announced the nominees and he did the whole thing of like reading them as if they were votes. And I was like, it was exciting to watch every name pop up as a long time fan of the show. I'll just miss Jerry. Like that's like a big time.
Starting point is 00:47:03 I don't think so. I mean, that I'm going to do actually is I don't miss Jerry. Like, that's like a big time, I don't think so, for me, that I'm gonna do actually is I don't think so, honey, why they didn't include Jerry Manthe on the season. Thrilled for Suri. Although I can't imagine she was long. No, but I mean, I'd rather watch her than not. Like, people being like, Suri again? I'm like, what, you don't want to watch Suri?
Starting point is 00:47:21 What if she does great? Like, you never know. No, I never, that is not a complaint that you should have about Suri, by the way. There's no such thing as too much Suri on your television. It's a very on paper thing to react to Suri's casting like that. It's like, oh, you see she's done it a bunch.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Yeah, that's cause she's always so much fun to watch. She's incredible. And so easy to root for because she's so good. She's so good. Ozzy, love. I guess we're all disappointed about Carolyn, obviously. But we needed Carolyn. Carolyn was like one of the only genuine stars
Starting point is 00:47:56 of the 40s season. I can't believe there was no Shann, there was no Ricard, there was no Carolyn, there was no Jessie, there was no Carla, there was no Ricard, there was no Carolyn, there was no Jesse, there was no Carla, there was no Cassidy. There was, I mean, there were so many people that had narratives to go into this. Yep, yep. Oh, there was other ones too.
Starting point is 00:48:14 But we are so excited. Hai, I love Hai. I would have loved to have seen him. Like, but it's gonna be great, but it's just like, oh, there were so many other, like almost all of the new era people I would have picked weren't in there. And no one from the 20s.
Starting point is 00:48:30 No one from the 20s. Abby Maria needed another chance anyway. Big blind spot for me. They're just scared of good TV. When they don't put Abby Maria on Survivor, it's just because sometimes, and this is just, I'm just gonna pull the curtain back. Sometimes the networks are scared to be too good.
Starting point is 00:48:46 They don't want us eating that well. Right. Because if you eat well, you get satiated, you need a break. Like they don't want to give us Abbey Maria because they know they would give us television and we could walk away. Right, that you would be feasting on Abbey Maria.
Starting point is 00:49:01 We would eat so well, yeah. I'm not familiar with her series, and I can't get over that her name is Abby Maria. She was basically a demon and played the game as one of the- Love. Like she played like a chaos agent. Like she just like really, it was unbearable on purpose as a strategy.
Starting point is 00:49:18 And she did well because a lot of those people are like, bring them to the end, they're not gonna win. No one's gonna vote for them. But then in the back of your mind, you're like, but if they can argue it as a strategy, like I pretended to be the most unsavory person. So they can bring me here. Yeah, it's kind of genius. That's how I would play.
Starting point is 00:49:37 I've actually tried to play like that in the Survivor Quarantine. Oh, right. Look where it got you. I mean, between Abby Maria and... What I do love about Kyle and Camila is, I love when people go, survivor is a performance, let's perform.
Starting point is 00:49:51 Yes, I love that. I love acting on Survivor. And Camila was one of the greats. Camila was one of the... And you know what I always look forward to? The Bowen Yang Survivor contestant endorsement. And this season, you did. You went to your story, you posted a picture of Camila, and you said, it's her. I don't know that I'll have a CIA is already like I've been between like you and see it like you are the celebrity
Starting point is 00:50:12 ambassadors for that no but I do want to start a thing now where I I pick out my favorite from each season of couples therapy I need to start I need to start and I you know what I realized, Bo, like we absolutely need Dr. Orner on the podcast. I think Dr. Orner will be in the world, in the mix in some way for sure. And 100 percent she will come on
Starting point is 00:50:36 soon, says producer Anna. OK, fine. It's happening. It's happening. I was looking at our calendar for June and I was like, I'm a little anxious. And now I'm like, yeah, come on, Booker. And soon. And soon we hear her daughter is a reader.

Starting point is 00:53:57 You'll hear from trailblazers like Bob the Drag Queen. To freedom! Angelica Ross. We ready to fight? I'm ready to fight. And Gabrielle Yoon. Hi, George. And storytellers with wisdom to spare. I'm ready to fight. And Gabrielle Yoon. Hi, George.
Starting point is 00:54:05 And storytellers with wisdom to spare. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Clayton English. I'm Greg Glott. And this is season two of the War on Drugs Podcast. Sir, we are back. In a big way. In a very big way.
Starting point is 00:54:21 Real people, real perspectives. This is kind of star-studded a little bit, man. We got Ricky Williams, NFL player, Heisman Trophy winner. It's just a compassionate choice to allow players all reasonable means to care for themselves. Music stars Marcus King, John Osborne from Brothers Osborne. We have this misunderstanding
Starting point is 00:54:40 of what this quote-unquote drug band. Benny the Butcher. Brent Smith from Shinedown. Got B-Real from Cypress Hill. NHL enforcer Riley Cote. Marine Corvette, MMA fighter Liz Caramouche. What we're doing now isn't working and we need to change things.
Starting point is 00:54:57 Stories matter and it brings a face to them. It makes it real. It really does. It makes it real. Listen to new episodes of the War on Drugs podcast, season two, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcast or wherever you get your podcasts. And to hear episodes one week early
Starting point is 00:55:12 and ad free with exclusive content, subscribe to Lava for Good Plus on Apple podcast. What is there to talk about? I think we can keep this week short. I don't know that there is much more to talk about. So this might be a short one and let's just launch into I Don't Think So Honey. Yeah. So we've gotten preview from both of ours. I've explicitly said what mine is.
Starting point is 00:55:42 You have sort of like, you know guess what mine is....poked the hair around. This is I Don't Think So Honey. It's our 60-second segment where we take exactly that amount of time to rant Rael and more against something in culture that needs soul, the blood in its place. And here we go. I'm ready. I'm ready for them.
Starting point is 00:56:02 Okay, this is Matt Rogers. I Don't Think So Honey. It's time Matt Rogers. I don't think so, honey. It's time starts now. I don't think so, honey, that you're not gonna put Jerry Manthe on the season 50 of Survivor. You're an idiot. You guys are wacko. And also, if you weren't gonna put her on, why did she feel like she was close enough
Starting point is 00:56:19 that that was her reaction on Instagram? She's off staring into the desert sky, sitting on a rock, wordlessly processing. And that is not how I want to see Jerry Manthe. I want to see Jerry Manthe straddling like a crocodile in the Australian Outback and by crocodile, I don't mean her feelings and urges towards Colby Donaldson. And speaking of Colby Donaldson,
Starting point is 00:56:43 I'm not excited about him without Jerry. How could you not take the opportunity to follow that narrative through of putting Jerry and Colby together? I know they tried in Heroes vs. Villains, but you could have really seen it through. That is one of the reasons initially why it was a television phenomenon
Starting point is 00:56:58 because of those characters. You had the reason to bring them back, and you didn't? You fool! You let her stare at the sky in the desert? Upset and hurt? I don't think so, honey. That's one minute. I mistakenly said she was on a beach in that video. I apologize. Oh, another thing. Amanda, China. Oh, okay, so here's my thing with Amanda.
Starting point is 00:57:18 What happened there? Because apparently she was gonna do it, and then all of a sudden Ozzy was on, so she couldn't do it. And my question is, why is that the case? And I'm not, I don't wanna make any like assumptions, but I'm like, why is it so weird that they can't do the show together, if that's true? Like, I don't like that.
Starting point is 00:57:36 Like, cause we wanted to see Amanda bad. And like, I have a hard time like thinking that she would allow something like that to stop her from doing it unless it was a thing. But was she expressing publicly that she was gonna do it? What I heard was that they had locked her down. I mean, this is all conjecture. It's all conjecture. But for some reason, the rumor has taken shape online
Starting point is 00:57:56 that they had her for the show, and then she was like, made aware that Ozzy was doing it. Again, I could be... Mm-hmm. It's just conjecture, but for some reason she wanted to drop out or something or didn't wanna do with Ozzy. And now we have Ozzy and not Amanda when ideally
Starting point is 00:58:13 I would have loved to see them both, but- Both would have been great. I don't love that that is the case if that happened. Well, don't love. Don't love. I have something I don't love. I know it's probably your, I don't think so honey, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:26 Okay. So I'm reaching over for my phone. I'm putting the screen on. I'm getting out a little laugh. I'm pushing the button that puts 60 seconds on the clock. Are you ready? I'm ready. Bow and yangs, I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:58:40 I need time to start. I don't think so honey. Travel. I don't want so. Any time starts now. I don't think so, honey. Travel. I don't want to leave my house. Do I sound like I might be depressed? Have Matt and I switched roles this year in our summer journeys? It's possible. No, I think I'm okay. I think I'm just tired from all the travel that I've been doing.
Starting point is 00:58:59 Nothing sounds more appealing to me than to stay in. And at this point in my life, if it's not Japan, Asia, if I'm somewhere, if I'm in a city besides New York, if you find me in a city besides New York that is not Japan, in Japan, then I'm there against my will. Then I'm there in service of something else. And I'm happy to be there for something.
Starting point is 00:59:24 15 seconds. I think if I just had my druthers, then the druthers would be in New York City. Much like how Matt's Porg is in Los Angeles. My druthers are here. Five seconds. And I really, really like to sit on my couch, more to come in Matt's new single, This Is My Room.
Starting point is 00:59:46 And that's one minute. This is my room. I don't know why I'm singing it in this way. For some reason, I just feel this- It doesn't matter. This is my room. I feel like I need to give it gut, you know? Because I feel like it really goes to a place.
Starting point is 01:00:02 Listen, Beau, here's what I think we're gonna do. We're gonna take things off the schedule for you. I would be willing to sit with you and go through the calendar and we'll look at the times when you're traveling. And we can find ways to A, get out of it, B, take it off the schedules and more. You don't have to do any of that. Yes, because someone's got to do it. You need like someone, like for example, Melissa came over here
Starting point is 01:00:27 and looked at my closet and just having someone else literally with me, going through every piece of clothes, like, and being like, no, yes, no, never. Oh my God. What even is this? Why is it taking up space? You need that for your schedule. I think, I really think you do. I think you need an outside
Starting point is 01:00:48 person to look at your things. Well, this has been a short and sweet, to quote Sabrina Carpenter, album, episode of Lost Culture. Oh my God, she's coming out with new music by the end of this week. Man Child. Man Child. Oh,, oh I hope she really hurts
Starting point is 01:01:08 someone back. Cause clearly someone hurt her. I just hope she hurts them back. She will. She always has her way. We support her. It's not that I hope she hurts them back. It's that I hope she expresses herself. Yes! Yes! In a cathartic way and if someone else's feelings
Starting point is 01:01:24 are hurt by it, whatever. That's art. That's pop art. That's cause and effect, babe. We are living, loving and expressing gratitude to all the readers, Katie's, Puppets, finalists and Kyle's and more. OK, we end every episode with a song. Look at this photograph. Every time I do, it makes me laugh.
Starting point is 01:01:51 To listen to that, you got to listen to Nickelback. Sorry. I know, I know. No, it must have been a funny photo. What do you think was in the photo? Hilarious pic, by the way. Probably a meme. I actually literally do see in my mind's eye what was in that photo and it is guys, for some reason they're standing around.
Starting point is 01:02:08 They're standing around, it's like right by a driveway. They're standing at like a, it's in the front yard, it's by a driveway and there's like a beer pong table and in the back you see a trampoline. And it's a bunch of guys with their arms around each other, like probably five, six guys all arranged around this beer pong table. And in the back, you see a trampoline. I don't know why. It's not that funny. But that's the picture in my mind's eye when I see, look at this photograph!
Starting point is 01:02:34 Like sort of like, take me back to God's country, you know? No, I understand taking me back to God's country. I don't totally understand. Every time I look at this photo, it makes me laugh. But it doesn't sound like a funny photo. Well, Bowen, you don't even know how funny the people in the photo were. Maybe the guys in the picture, while maybe it's not a funny photo,
Starting point is 01:02:54 it's just he's looking at funny people. Maybe one of them was Mitch Hedberg. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, exactly. Like, if you look at a photo of- And Mitch Hedberg is in it, and I gotta laugh. You're like, every time this makes me laugh. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:03:06 Totally. Okay, bye. Look at this photo! Smile! Bye! Lost Cultures is a production by Will Ferrell's Big Money Players and iHeartRadio Podcasts. Created and hosted by Matt Rogers and Bo Winyak. Executive produced by Anna Hosnier. And produced by Bekka Ramos.

Police Lieutenant Joel Kern used his badge to fool everyone. Most of all, his wife, Caroline. He texted, I've ruined our lives. You're going to want to divorce me. How far would he go to cover up what he'd done? The fact that you lied is absolutely horrific.
Starting point is 01:03:56 And quite frankly, I question how many other women are out there that may bring forward allegations in the future.

Starting point is 01:05:12 We asked parents who adopted teens to share their journey. We just kind of knew from the beginning that we were family. They showcased a sense of love that I never had before. I mean, he's not only my parent, like he's like my best friend. At the end of the day, it's all been worth it. I wouldn't change a thing about our lives. Learn about adopting a teen from foster care. Visit adoptUSkids.org to learn more.
