oh i see wow look over there wow is, is that culture? Yes. Oh, my goodness. Wow. Las Culturistas.
Ding dong! Las Culturistas calling. Now,
much has befallen the Culturistas.
Well, Matt came on
this Zoom with the
words, and I know he means
storytelling when he says
a story like mine has never
been told. He's about to
spin a yarn on us.
Okay.
Picture this.
I'm spending 90 minutes packing, roughly,
for what I'm calling my big August.
So I was going to Scotland
to see the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
More on that in a bit.
Then I was going straight to Las Vegas, Nevada
to see Kelly Clarkson.
Then I'm going straight to Las Vegas, Nevada to see Kelly Clarkson.
Then I'm going to Orlando, Florida to hang out with my sister and dear friends.
After that, I was to go to the Fire Island Pines.
So I was going to spend all of August away.
So I needed to pack a ton of things.
So I spent about 90 minutes packing.
I go to throw out the garbage in my New York apartment.
It's always the garbage.
It's always the garbage that gets you.
I leave the apartment.
The door closes behind me. Oh my god.
All my bags and my keys are in the
goddamn room. So I'm
like, oh my god, my passport
is in there. Just kidding. No, it's not.
I have on my person, I have my passport, my wallet, my phone, and my AirPods.
So I had a choice to make.
Do I just straight up go to the airport with nothing but the clothes on my back and none
of the things I packed?
The answer was yes.
I got on a plane to Edinburgh, Scotland, where I currently am, with nothing.
And did a shop in Supriya!
Blue Crantrell style.
Crantrell.
In the JFK.
I said I bought all the basics and some bags.
Yeah.
So then I get here with truly nothing but the basics.
And here we are.
I'm here in Edinburgh Fringe.
I'm seeing amazing shows.
I'm doing amazing culture here.
And I did that.
I committed to the culture that I said I was going to see,
but even without all my things.
What did it feel like to walk through security with nothing?
Honestly, I was like, do I look suspicious?
Mmm, interesting.
Nobody stopped me, but I was
like, I know I look suspicious, just
breezing through to an international flight.
It's a white privilege.
Honestly, and I'm ready to talk about that.
And I want this episode to be called
White Privilege. This episode
is about white privilege.
We've got three white women on the
podcast today. Bowen Yang, white women on the podcast today.
Bowen Yang, Matt Rogers, and the guest.
But first, before we get to the guest, who actually has a show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival,
I want to know how you're feeling.
I'm feeling really bad.
I feel sick.
What's going on, Queenie?
I just woke up
with a sore throat and a fever. It's not
COVID yet, but I'm going,
she's back. No matter
what this is, the virus is
back.
And I have a bone to pick
with Peggy Lee, Miss Thing
who sang the song Fever.
Well, she might have passed, but she
glamorized illness with the song Fever. Well, she might have passed, but she glamorized illness
with the song Fever.
Fever all through the night.
That's not good.
That is not sexy.
Are you experiencing symptoms
throughout the night?
I was waking up every hour
on the hour to pee
and then fall back asleep.
Was having the most intense dreams.
This is no joke.
Fevers? What is going on there? I think
there's something magical about fevers. It's not just the symptom of fever. It's what it does to
you sort of psychoactively. There's a psychoactive element to fever. Describe your dreams. And by
this sentence, I mean, describe the dreams you had last night during a fever, not your big dreams
in the macro sense right I don't
I'm not someone who remembers them very well
but I think I was with a lover
or something
likely story
oh my god fever dream
high in the quiet of the night
you know that caught it
and I think I might have even had some
I think Jessel Tank might have been in my dream
because I just finished watching Roni.
And
that's about all I can remember.
Jessel saying that Tribeca is an up
and coming neighborhood is why
Roni is good. I showed that
to our guest and she couldn't believe it. She couldn't
let it go. She's not stopped talking about it.
Or our guest just
made a face. This is iconic
at first, by the way, we have our guest with Matt
on the Zoom box
in a different country
in Macbeth country.
Oh my God.
We've all been talking about
how you can't say it.
Did I ever tell you
about the time I said it?
You can't say it in the theater.
That's the only place
you can't say it.
Well, I feel like,
okay, so we were having
some cocktails last night
with some of the girls,
Patty Harrison,
Ruby McAllister, et al.
And we were all talking about, and if you're a real reader,
you can look back to Ruby McAllister's episode, Dark Gay Culture,
when she talked about being raised in an LA theater.
It was the Coronet, it became the Largo.
So I looked at her and I said,
I am not going to say the name of the Scottish play in her presence
at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
I'm just not doing it.
So we all had a conversation about
how, what exactly happens when
you do say it and the curse of the play.
And it's a very cursed town.
Before, we were at the Witch's Well.
Oh my God, describe it. Well, I want
to bring our guest in. I want to hear about the Witch's Well from our guest.
She can really describe
the Witch's Well better than I can
because she's sort of so smart and so gorgeous and so funny.
And so many things.
And I will say I did see her show Exquisite Lies last night at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
I think I've seen the show more than anyone else because I open up for the guests when she does the show live.
I'm so proud of her.
She's killing it up here in Edinburgh.
She just got another five-star review. And'm so proud of her. She's killing it up here in Edinburgh. She just got another
five-star review, and the reviews
have been good. The city of Edinburgh
is buzzing about Exquisite Lies,
and I'm having the best time with her. It's her day
off today, and
we're having an amazing time. We're going to go
see Monet X Change. Oh my god,
she's in town. She's doing a show.
And now, it's very hard to impress
a foreign audience when you know this.
And she's going to tell you all about that.
But you know her, you love her.
You got to see her show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival
if you're here. Ladies and gentlemen,
please welcome
Greta Teitelman!
You're here, you're right next to me.
Oh my God.
Every single time I get the chance to come on Lost Cult,
I'm so honored.
I really am.
And what bigger honor than to be doing it here
in my absolutely shitty flat.
Oh, yeah.
Describe the flat.
It's really not good.
Well, where can we start?
Stained wall-to-wall carpet, for starters.
The lap of luxury.
That's always moist you know the kind of wall-to-wall that's always wet and you don't really know what from but there's a little bit
of moisture everywhere we absolutely have a shit closet yeah i was just in there where this used to be this is a very old building and the poop stall
was its own little
literal closet
where you would go and shit.
Europe doesn't get it.
Europe putting the toilet in its own room
is disgusting.
Also, they have
not gotten on
board with a comfortable toilet
seat.
It's possible.
Period.
It is possible.
I'll tell you what, too.
Everywhere you go, and I hate this, and my I don't think so, honey, today, actually, I didn't tell Greta what it is, but we were walking earlier, and it is related to this. But this is not it.
But this is something I don't think so, honey.
Why are the lights to the bathrooms on the outside of the room?
The switch.
The switch that turns on the lights.
It's on the outside of the room.
I don't like that.
Also, the buttons on these toilets in the UK just...
Oh, you don't even know the trick about my toilet.
What's the trick?
My toilet, if you so decide
to go number
two, you have to run
the sink on top
of my toilet. Yes, there is
a sink on top of the toilet. Yeah, there is.
I will be providing a photo. You have to
run the sink on top of the toilet
in order to get enough water
to flush
your turd down the fence.
Oh, my God.
We're in old town Scotland.
We really are.
Yeah.
Title of app.
Title of app.
Describe The Witch's Well.
What was it like?
What's so amazing about it?
The Witch's Well.
We were so excited to go.
We are winding up Potter's Way.
We are winding up the gorgeous cobblestone streets of the ancient city.
Ancient.
Ancient.
I'm a little ancient.
Yeah.
Ancient.
Some might say the 16th century streets of Edinburgh.
And what do we stumble upon?
The Witch's well.
Now, this well is where all of the witches would go and drink in the 15th and 16th century
before they all got persecuted and hung.
So basically, it was like...
It's to commemorate them in many ways.
To commemorate them.
Was it to be like, here, drink from here before we kill you
Yeah
Why don't you moisten that mouth
Before we hang you from it
Yeah, slag
They would say slag
You dumb slags
I do have
My eyes have fallen on a
Sexual
Hot Scottish barista so it's the one
place in scotland where you can get cold brew batch brew as they call it here batch brew and
there is one barista who's just got it you ask him for ice he doesn't look at you like you're a
fucking fool tell bowen what i said i said i'm so happy you have cold brew he was like
oh he's like oh yeah i was like i'll be coming here every day and he said and i look forward
to serving no he said i love to serve you he said well i love to serve you that's hot i said do you
want me to throw it back papa what's going on papa turn around. I said, you want to split me muff?
Yeah.
Split me muff?
Split me muff.
I said, split me muff. You want to split me muff?
I used the expression, you want to split me muff the other day to Greta, and she had a negative reaction to it.
Well, that's accurate.
The muff is split.
The muff splitter.
They call me the muff splitter.
I mean, when I tell you there are crazy things
happening on the stages in Edinburgh,
I was at a bar the other day with Patty,
woman on stage,
fully spreading open
her vagina, explaining
what a labia is
to a packed
bar of people.
I've never been to Edinburgh.
What is the culture,
the energy? Is it like
chaos? What is your experience
as someone who has an acclaimed show
there? That is the dream.
Is it acclaimed?
Dretta, yes. You just got a five-star review.
You just got a five-star review.
I know. Look, would I love to sell it out?
I would. I would love to sell it out.
But the reality is this festival has over 3,200 shows playing here.
And it's everything.
It's theater.
It's comedy.
It's clown.
It's circus.
It's dance.
It's magic.
It's literally like any kind of performance you can think of.
It's giving streaming boom. It's giving like any kind of performance giving streaming boom it's giving like
yes the bubbles should be bursting soon yes it is and it's like the biggest gripe with the way
the fringe has changed is that it's just become so expensive that like young people really can't
afford to attend it in the same way that used to you you know? So now it's like, you get a lot of like
middle to older age people attending it. And you know, when I'm busting my fucking muff on stage,
talking about things that are potentially more topical to us, it's kind of like, where are the
girls? You know what I mean? Right. You need the girls who understand what busting a muff even means.
Exactly.
And, you know, I'm targeting the girls.
I did look at an 83-year-old woman on the brink of death the other night in my show and said that I swallowed to her looking directly in her eyes.
And she laughed.
She loved it and laughed.
And I said, doll, I said, I know.
She wanted to look at me and be like, I've been swallowing for 70 years.
I've been swallowing since the Great War.
Exactly.
There were a couple old gays that came up to Greta last night and were like, you're the most talented person in the festival.
Yes, yes.
And the old gays see it all.
They're like, you're the most talented actor I've ever seen here.
No, what was that?
Yeah, that's Scottish.
I mean, who am I to speak?
You really need to be rolling your words.
They're always talking like this.
Rolling their tongues like this.
Oh, Matt has also been very bombarded
with us college fans.
Really?
Girls shaking in their boots,
being like,
is that...
Local girls?
Yes, the dolls.
Oh my God,
I didn't know the reach.
I love local girls, man.
Ew.
Love local girls.
Can I tell you something?
Nothing like local girls.
Local girls,
they love a big star rolling through.
But I will say,
to just...
Bowen is so shocked.
To just finish sort of explaining
the energy of Edinburgh.
Oh, the energy, yes.
You're stuck on which as well.
I'm stuck on which as well.
It's winter here
is what I think people also don't get.
It is fully freezing your tits off.
No, it's not freezing.
It's 60 degrees.
I love getting it to be able to wear a sweatshirt,
which, by the way, we had to buy all new clothes.
I will reiterate for me.
But it is really nice because it's been so goddamn hot.
We've all said it, global boiling and all.
But it's been so lovely to be here.
We looked at some castles.
I will say this.
The people are so nice.
So nice.
The city is so excited about the festival, and you can see why. I will say this. The people are so nice. So nice. The city is so excited
about the festival, and you can see why.
It's really cool. Just like the
history. It's gorgeous. It's beautiful
here. It's like Harry Potter.
It's crazy. So literally, my hotel
is, I learned, it's on the street that
inspired Diagon Alley.
But it's very, very, very, like,
it's just amazing. What is
really tough is the food.
Okay.
And I'm sure you're not the first people to say this.
So I think it's a conversation that we can have constructively.
What are the delicacies?
Well, the delicacies are haggis.
Which I had to ask what that was.
Didn't like the answer at all.
Didn't like the answer.
Yeah.
Do you know about Haggis?
You asking what Haggis is?
We both spent time in London.
Yeah.
You asking what Haggis is,
is like me asking what the horses drama was
with the owners of horses.
Matt and Matt Whitaker were like,
it's too bad to say at dinner.
We can't tell you at dinner.
Right.
And I was like, oh, is it that bad?
Like, God, did someone die?
Truly shocking once I found out.
Are we allowed to talk about this and bring this up?
Everyone can just look it up.
I think that they've since rectified.
Do you know about what's going down in horses?
She doesn't want to comment.
Greta and I went one time.
We can cut this out.
Oh, we haven't been to horses with Greta.
No, Bowen and I.
We haven't been to LA.
We should absolutely keep it in.
Bowen and I had a gorgeous meal at horses with Abe.
It was delectable.
Delectable. And I think that from what I've heard,
and this could be totally false information.
I think both of the chefs are now out of the picture.
I think they're not at the,
both of them are not at the restaurant anymore from what I glean.
And by the way,
it's still a tough reservation to get your little
paws on and yeah so i don't think i don't think that the whole you know meow meow kitty cat of it
all kind of deterred their business well so and literally we're not gonna get into it on the pod
because it really is it's so bad it's giving, like if you want to find out what happened with horses,
which by the way,
I think it is rectified now,
look it up on your own T-I-M-E.
But you know what I've really discovered,
especially in LA,
controversy around restaurants
where people are like,
we're not going there anymore,
does not stop business
because I'll tell you what,
we, was it like,
it must've been like two months ago
at the height of the scandal all we were
looking we were looking for a place to get drinks and have some noshes and we ended up at schwartz
and sandys no so basically what happened was we were around that area and i of course refused to
step foot in schwartz and sandys i won't do And I was like, let's just fucking go to Schwartz and
Sandy's. Who cares? And Matt was like, I can't
be seen there. No, I was like, I'm not being
seen there. I can't be seen.
No, because I support and respect
Ariana. So then you guys
drove past it and saw that it was packed?
So then I was like,
let me just go and see because no place
around there had room. And I was like, let me just
go and see if we can just get a drink while we wait for a
table somewhere else.
Walk in packed,
packed gills.
They were like,
honey,
if you don't have a reservation at all this weekend,
you're not getting in.
Oh my God.
But I did buy Matt a little present from there.
She got me a coast.
She got me an ashtray.
And I felt good about having a Schwartz and Sandy's ashtray.
Cause I can be like lighten up my little one on it.
My little duber.
I mean, Chick-fil-A is a perfect example.
You know, I've stopped eating it.
I really have.
You need to walk that back, honey.
You're telling me to stand down?
You need to back off.
I just love it.
There was a time when Bowen and I would go downtown LA to record
old episodes of Lost Couch
when we were still over at Forever Dog and they had
an office down there. And Bowen would get
a devilish, little feverish
look in his eye and he would say,
let's go to Chick-fil-A. And I would say,
get out of here. We would have a tussle
in the street. We would get physical with each other. I was really fighting. Chick-fil-A. And I would say, get out of here. We would have a tussle in the street. We would get physical with each other.
I would be fighting.
Chick-fil-A is, like, unfortunately, very good.
It wouldn't be in the conversation if it was bad.
Do you know what I'm saying?
A hundred percent.
And they say that about a lot of things.
But you know what's weird that I still have never been able to get behind?
Yeah, what? The square
burger patties at Wendy's.
I just think that's a nice
little novelty. It's a way to
distinguish the brand.
But how do you feel about a square burger?
Honey, it's more
surface area. It's more beef. I guess that's
true. Oh, I didn't think about it like that. Do you feel
that it should be on sand
on a bun also square?
No.
Because the shape of a burger is round.
Just like how Charlie Bardet tweeted,
when people put soup in a square Tupperware,
that is not right. It should be round.
It should be a circle, which is the shape of soup.
Yeah, soup is a circle.
Soup is a circle. And that's actually real culture number
83. Soup is a circle.
Soup is a circle. I agree with that. Co- 83. Soup is a circle. Soup is a circle.
I agree with that. Co-credit to Charlie Bardet.
You know,
we walked past Nando's earlier.
I thought Nando's
was great cuisine.
It depends.
You like Nando's though.
You've had Nando's in London.
I went,
Matt Whitaker and I went
when we were in London
and the way he was acting about it
was like,
well,
we have to go to Nando's
if we want quality chicken.
And so then we sat down and ate it and I thought it was great. to go to Nando's if we want quality chicken. And so then we sat down and ate it
and I thought it was great. I walked by Nando's
earlier with Greta because we're
literally searching far and wide
for literally one bite of decent
food. Literally searching,
searching.
It's that bad.
Like, it was like
looking for fucking the Scientology
woman trying to find a vegetable
in this goddamn town.
Looking for a pot of vegetables.
Shelly Miskovich.
You can find Shelly Miskovich easier in this town than a fucking piece of broccoli.
I'll tell you that right now.
So we're walking past Nando's and I go, oh my God, Nando's.
That's really good.
And Greta looks at me and goes, yeah, if you like 7-Eleven.
Greta.
She's such a bitch.
She's a slag. Oh my god, I am
such a slag bitch. She's a bitchy
slag. I'm a bitchy slag.
And honestly, put that on my
fucking tombstone. I am a bitchy
slag. Bitchy slag. I think
people in the UK
have better... Love Nando's.
They love Nando's, but I'm saying they have better curses.
Oh yeah. Oh, yeah.
Oh, absolutely.
They call each other a cunt.
And it's sort of like so playful.
Well, I say cunt in my show.
And my producer out here was like, you know, we actually say cunt all the time.
They do.
They do.
I know.
And they know that Americans hate it.
Why do Americans hate it?
I wonder.
Because Americans are fucking prude they're so
uptight actually i will say this is going to be really controversial what i'm about to say
good say it here we need the clicks i i will say being and i felt this way even when i i love london
okay i love the city yes love the town but i felt this way even when I was there for like January and February.
And I really feel this way being in Scotland.
I am proud to be an American.
Europe has a thing about it.
And I think every other continent in a way where after a while you go, take me back to the States.
You know, and I'm just like, I'm like, yeah,
I'm a loud American
whore.
Greta was
screaming on the streets earlier, where's
ketchup? I want ketchup!
I'm such a whore for this stuff.
I'm a whore! I'm a fucking
whore! Fuck you!
I want some ketchup for my french fries.
No, no, no.
For my freedom fries.
Freedom fries.
Where's the ketchup for my freedom fries, bitch?
Yeah.
Right.
Matt, do you agree with this?
I'm so proud to be an American, man.
Yeah.
Let me tell you something.
Patriotism is back and it's not just for the right.
I think the left should embrace patriotism.
Really reclaim it.
I think that if the left embraced patriotism, we'd be in a better place.
I agree.
Look, we're fucked up.
We are fucked up.
And what family isn't?
And what family isn't?
And what family isn't?
That's a rule of culture.
Exactly.
Number 57.
America, we're fucked up.
We're fucked up.
But what family isn't? But what family isn't?
Now
That's really good.

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. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app,

Now, I remember the day, just to go back to cunt, I remember the day.
Just to go back to cunt. It was the sixth grade, and at lunch, it was like, somehow the word had gotten in, had broken in to the other kids at lunch.
And they were like, we just found out about the worst word you can possibly say.
And I was like, what?
Is it the F word?
They go, it's worse than the F word.
I go, really?
What?
What could it be?
They're like, if you call someone this, you're dead.
You go to jail.
Yeah.
Well, they were like, they have the right to fucking beat the
shit out of you if you call them if you call them this i was like oh my god tell me i need to know
now yeah and then when i found out what it was i said that's just a sound not not to reduce it to
that you know but it's like i was like cunt i guess it does linguistically have a tough it's like, I was like, cunt? I guess it does linguistically have a tough,
it's fricative, it starts on a cut,
it ends on a tuh.
Like it does sound weird coming out the mouth,
but why do Americans have an issue with it
and not Brits?
And Aussies, I would assume.
Well, I genuinely have no idea.
I'm sorry.
Well, I just wanted to put it to the group.
Here's my question.
Do you remember, obviously both of you
when you first started incorporating curse words into your vocabulary i got in trouble for it in
kindergarten really oh my god i got in trouble for it um the first month of school in america
really wait hold on i need to know what you said and I need to know both of you. Matt, you go first.
So I was in kindergarten, which means I was five.
And for some reason, I became fixated on using three words and doing one hand gesture.
The words were damn, hell, and ass.
What was the hand gesture?
It was the middle finger.
Oh my god.
I couldn't wrap my head around
stopping doing it.
Someone would act out to me
in kindergarten. We'd get
into a squabble or something. I don't know.
We both
wanted to use the fucking blue crayon or something.
And I would just go
and stick my middle finger right in the face.
And then, of course, they all tattled on me.
They all ran to Mrs. Smith, my ancient teacher.
And she was like, Matthew, you have to stop doing that.
And I would say, damn you.
Damn, damn, damn.
And I would say, hell, hell.
This is hell.
And I would say, my ass.
Like, this hurts my ass.
Like, kiss my ass. I would just say things
like that at five years
old. Terrifying. I could find pictures
of me at five. Just imagine this little boy just
like fusing profane language. I bet it was
hilarious. I bet it was so funny.
So then my
teacher fucking nailed
me with this one. She
wrote a note and she said matthew this is
a note about how good you're doing in class give this to your parents when you get home oh i didn't
even read it i gave it i literally handed my own like fucking death certificate to my parents who
read it back to me i'll never forget my stay set.
It's one of my earliest memories.
They sat me down on the bed in my room and they looked at me and they were so
disappointed and they read the note.
And I remember my dad goes,
Matthew has been using the words,
damn hell and a S S couldn't even say it. He spelled out S.
And then he goes,
and he has been using the middle finger.
And you know I was in trouble.
You want to know what my punishment was?
My mother said, you know what?
You're punished.
That was the punishment.
I wasn't allowed to turn on the radio for a week.
Wow.
Oh, my God.
That's intense.
You know, I carried on.
I said, well, where the fuck do you think I learned it, you slags?
Yeah.
And they said, you better watch your tone, mister.
Yes.
I said, you bitches better beware.
Oh, my God.
Bowen, what happened when you were an eight-year-old trans plant?
Immigrant, really.
Immigrant.
Well, it's not really quite as dramatic,
but it was a recess.
We were playing four square.
I think a ball was,
does four square have balls in it?
Yes.
So then like someone,
one ball,
someone like tossed or you know slapped the ball
in my direction and it hit me in the rear in the rear and i said you hit my ass
and i was just being anatomically dramatic no i well i was being anatomically correct but and then of course these
fucking kids like tattled what is with oh i the psychology of a tattling i never got it i never
never got it it doesn't make you look cool no and honestly it makes you look lame to your teachers like if I was a teacher and a tattle came up to me
I would be like honey you look
bad
you are a fucking narc
you little bitch
get out my face
get up out my face
I would actually call a parent
I would call a parent and I would say
hey guess what you have a kid that's
a tattle.
So, what happened then?
Did they tattle on you, though, and what happens?
I went to the principal's office.
Not the principal. And what did they do?
It was just the principal
was, I didn't realize what a big deal this was.
In Canada, no one really
went to the principal's office, I guess.
But I went to the principal's office
and then she was just like, you can't be saying these words and we're gonna have to i think that i
my parents also got a note but then my parents my parents were like what like they like didn't
really care didn't really get it um but it was a rude awakening i said oh america america has a
problem i was eight years old and i thought. You knew that our culture was stunted.
Yes.
Yes.
Well, you have to understand, and I keep saying this,
like I moved to Colorado right after Monica Lewinsky,
JonBenet Ramsey, and Columbine.
So I'm over here as a child going, America is fucked up.
And where I'm going is the state where people get killed.
I'm not even joking.
Like, I was like, this is a bad place.
I, last night at my show.
Yeah, this was wild.
My show, well, wait, really quickly, not that anyone asked,
but the first time I got busted doing anything person-adjacent, I was
flicking off my French
au pair.
And I would...
Whenever she
would turn her back to me, I would just go
both. I would do both.
And I hated her. Her name
was Olivia, and I fucking hated her.
It's not even a French name.
I know, and I would do double flips
and I would cross them like an
X. Why don't people do that?
That looks chic. Crossing the middle finger.
There's nothing like
just giving up.
It's so good.
My mom loved to give people the finger.
Like when we were in the car always
giving people the finger. I love giving the finger too.
It's powerful.
I'll never forget the first time I heard my mom say fuck.
It was because we were in the car and there was like a traffic thing.
And it was like involuntary.
She was like, what the fuck?
And I was just like, and I remember I got all right just about it.
I was like, I can't believe you would use that language.
And I remember I was like seven. And I was just use that language and i remember i i was like seven
and i was just like i was probably just like trying out being dramatic but i was like right
we got home i slammed the door i was like i don't want to talk to you you are marred in my eyes like
you forget it mom like i thought you were one person and you are not and then i remember one
time we were out to dinner at tgi fridays my dad my dad my mom my sister i and two other
families and the guys were like you know knocking back beers at tgi fridays like you do in the
suburbs and they said fuck a lot loud at the dinner table and i called a family meeting when
i got home i called a family meeting with the four of us i sat everyone down. I said it was so disgusting, the language that was used tonight at TGI Fridays.
What I saw tonight was not my family.
And I don't want to be associated with that type of language.
And I know what it is.
It's Uncle George.
He's a bad influence on you.
And I see you going down the drain.
I see you dwindling.
And if I hear the word.
The behavior that I witnessed
was Uncle George-like.
Was Uncle George-like.
The Uncle George jumped out.
And then I jumped back in.
Again.
That is so dramatic.
I just wanted to run the show.
I just wanted to call a meeting, set everyone down,
and be like, look at me when I talk.
I mean, I used to hold my
parents' friends hostage after
dinner parties and make them watch me
dance in our living room
back in the USSR
by the Beatles.
Oh my god.
Bo was a performer.
I'm not really.
Was Yang performing? And were you the special
sidekick? What I remember is one day we had a video cassette recorder.
And Yang would just like improvise little sketches and talk shows.
And we would just record each other on the cassette player.
And we would like speed it up and give ourselves chipmunk voice.
Cute.
And she really like ran the show in that way.
But we were more about, it's so funny.
We were only about the audio
and not necessarily about the visual.
Very podcast-y.
Very.
That was when, we should have known then
you'd be a podcaster.
That's right.
Critically acclaimed.
Critically acclaimed.
Wait, last night at my show,
at the very end of my show,
my tech
got on the microphone and was like
I'm so sorry to abruptly end the show
like this but it's been an emergency evacuation
and we all need to evacuate the building
now. Literally she had just finished
her last song that was probably two and a half minutes
after the show and he was like
we have to evacuate and me and American
both of us
for sure a gun. Active shooter.
Get your stuff. Be leisurely about it.
This is when it happens. But when we were walking out,
I overheard someone being like,
I wonder what happened. Somebody
probably got sick. And I was
like, wow.
We're like, we're all
getting gunned down.
Yeah. Our mind
immediately was like, oh, that's it.
The Scottish women were like,
someone's probably sick.
Someone's probably a little sick.
Someone probably fell ill.
Yeah, someone probably fell ill
and got over-eated during the show.
Oh, you know,
there's some drunk people outside.
Someone probably spilled a beverage.
Yeah.
Evacuate the premises.
Oh, yeah.
Out.
Out.
Wow.
I mean, that sounds nice.
I would trade that
for anything in America.
100%.
But I think it was just our ingrained feeling of being like the second we hear emergency evacuation,
it's like either truly like,
you know,
airborne chemical warfare in my mind,
or like a gun. Airborne chemical warfare. Airborne chemical warfare in my mind or like a gun airborne chemical warfare don't even get me started honey
i have i have been so low i've had so many highs and lows here and in my lows because there is no
like you know we we have netflix and then like amazon and you know what I've started watching and I'm on season two already Jack Ryan
okay starring
John Krasinski
that's barely culture
it's not culture I would say
I would say it's not culture
except for
what's her face
Numi Rapage
Numi Rapage
Numi Rapage
because in every single thing Numi Rapage. Numi Rapage. Yeah, I'm obsessed. Because in every single thing
Numi Rapage is in, it's always
like, John Pruszynski
hits on her in this way of being
like,
he's like, hey, I overheard
you speaking English,
French, and
Italian. And she just looks at him and she goes,
I'm Swedish.
I mean, come on on she's cracking up at that i'm just like what is this what is this writing she brings it up out of nowhere yes
she goes you know who's such a weird actress noomi i was like okay i didn't say i said
you said interesting interesting interesting well I think we're the first people
to talk about Numi in decades.
Yeah.
Because she had a moment
when she was Girl with a Dragon Tattoo.
And don't forget,
she was the star of Prometheus,
one of my...
No one knows this,
but it's one of my favorite films.
Is that culture?
100% culture.
Prometheus is culture.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Anything where Charlize Theron has like
like a cunty haircut
and she's the villain and she gets to run
away from a crashing building and gets
crushed by a building
that's culture to me
well is culture not John Krasinski
playing a very questionable
CIA agent
fucking Abby Cornish
who is Abby Cornish. Who is Abby Cornish?
That is D-list city.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
I'll tell you who Abby Cornish is.
Abby Cornish is allegedly
the girl that Ryan Phillippe
left Reese Witherspoon for.
Yeah.
That's probably her biggest claim to fame.
She was in the Bright Star movie.
Sad.
It's sad to
have your fame be
two degrees away from
Reese still.
And Ryan, we love Ryan,
obviously, but
he really did Reese dirty.
He did, but Ryan,
I love Ryan.
I don't know. Did they do each other dirty?
I don't know if it was confirmed that there was a cheating thing.
I feel like they were so young.
I think they just didn't work out because they were so young.
We were very young.
They were like six and seven when they had their first.
Yeah, they were so young.
I mean, Reese was pregnant in Cruel Intentions.
What?
I think they met on Cruel Intentions.
Yes, she was pregnant in the scene in the pool with his baby.
She is pregnant in the scene in the pool with his baby. She is pregnant in the scene in the pool with his baby.
She is in a one piece
and she is pregnant in that movie.
Reese Witherspoon in a pool
is powerful.
It's in Legally Blonde too.
During the admissions video.
It's so good.
They're saying that had she gotten in the pool
in Morning Show Season 2, that would have been
her Emmy. By the way, did you see the trailer for Morning Show Season 2, that would have been her Emmy.
By the way, did you see the trailer for Morning Show Season 3?
I did not.
Should I watch it now?
I didn't.
Yeah, why don't you watch it right now?
Okay, okay, okay.
Okay, so Bowen is going to pull up the trailer
for Morning Show Season 3.
I have not seen a full episode of this program.
That's okay.
And I want you to know,
it's two people's favorite show.
Me and Greta's husband, Abe Schwartz. This it's it's two people's favorite show me and greta's
husband abe schwartz and it's our favorite show and the readers know that i come on this podcast
every week and i give a morning show update and i don't know if the show is as good as my updates
but it's at least close and i always tell people so much better please give this show a chance. Like, is it a comedy?
Is it drama? The answer is no.
It exists in its own
tone. It exists in its own
like sort of genre.
It's really
wild.
They gave Greta Lee a terrible haircut.
They gave her a terrible haircut.
Everyone has a bad haircut.
Okay, I'm going to watch.
And if you can play it out loud, play it out loud.
Can you hear it?
No.
It's okay.
All right.
So while he's watching.
I found this at a charity shop here.
What?
And get this.
I'm reading it.
It's so funny.
Oh, my God.
Did she sign this?
Oh, my God.
Okay.
So while Bowen is watching the Morning Show season three trailer,
I'm going to tell you,
Greta just pulled out this,
what is this?
Joan Rivers' autobiography?
One of Joan Rivers' books.
One of Joan Rivers' books.
And she found it at what?
A charity shop here in Edinburgh?
Yeah.
Open up the front cover.
Signed.
Signed to Lorraine from the Botox clinic staff love joan wow cracking jokes here
in edinburgh she is so funny this first chapter is so deeply funny and this is just something you
can buy like something that's signed by joan like how much was this three pounds read this sentence
every 10 seconds in America,
someone turns 50, and too many of these
people think it is time to call Dr.
Dvorkian, the only doctor who still makes
house calls.
I don't actually
get it. What do you guys
looking at? Showbiz. Okay, so
I was at a charity shop with
Ruby, and we found this
Joan Rivers book.
Don't count the candles.
Don't count the candles.
Just keep the fire lit.
Okay.
Oh my God.
A signed book.
It says to Lorraine from the Botox Clinic staff.
Joan.
And it is really laugh out loud funny. This bitch
is so... Let me read you
the first sentence. Are you ready?
Let me say straight off.
Aging sucks.
I'm hooked. Hilarious.
I'm hooked. I'm in.
I don't understand the Dr. Kevorkian joke.
What's the Dr. Kevorkian thing?
Well, Dr. Kevorkian he makes house calls. If you Dr. Kevorkian thing? Well, Dr. Kevorkian, he makes
like he would, if you wanted to, he would come to your house.
He kills you? Yes, at your home.
I don't know if that was part of it.
I thought he did it at the hospital. Who is Dr. Kevorkian?
What? We don't know!
Dr. Kevorkian
was dubbed, quote,
Dr. Death, okay? My mom had a stalker
when she was working in the Pennsylvania government
and he wrote up a fake Dr. Kevorkian
death certificate for my mom. Isn't
that fucked up? Anyway.
Oh, that's scary. Dr. Kevorkian was
like, he was way ahead of his time.
Euthanasia.
Euthanasia. If you were dying,
if you had a terminal illness,
degenerative disease, whatever,
you could call him and he
would come take care of it. Correct. Okay, so what she's saying
is when people turn 50, they think their life is over.
Yeah. Okay, great.
There were a couple Grey's Anatomy quotes where someone,
you know, like George just killed someone
in the OR. They'd be like, paging Dr. Kevorkian
and then they'd laugh. Got it, got it, got it.
Okay, so now that you've made it a George O'Malley
thing, I can understand it. What is your
review of the Morning Show Season 3 trailer?
Um, I'm intrigued. What is your review of the Morning Show season 3 trailer? Um, I'm
intrigued. What is Jon Hamm's
role? No one knows yet.
Oh, okay. They make
a big deal out of him being interviewed.
And, it's
what is the last show
that depicted New York City in an
accurate, honest way?
Because it's like, and just like that is pure fantasy
at this point. I feel like this is also
a fantasy version of New York.
I'm trying to think of
the last show to really
show New York.
I mean, that's
really tough. Was it Girls?
Yeah. Girls or...
I think, well...
By the way, I do just want to say
I actually stopped watching it just like that
I can't do it
I can't even do it as like
it's not
fun enough
you missed Rosemary Duet
it is tough like the show is tough
but when you watch it from just
when you watch it and you're like okay I'm watching something
that's purely camp
that's purely camp.
Like, that's kind of the only way you can get through it. I don't, because I watched the first season like that, and I don't think it's good.
I think it's bad.
These people are even looking at the shot.
I mean, the city view outside is clearly a backdrop, no problem, right?
But it literally, you see it hit the floor of the soundstage.
And then the-
Is that true yes
yes and i implore all readers katie's publicist finalists watch the most recent episode where you
know aiden and carrie are like in chaise apartment just like flirting or whatever there you if you
look at the city view it hits the floor and you see gray concrete i I'm going, the people who make the show don't give a fuck.
No, that's very clear.
You know what?
Nothing grinds my gears more than the fact that Charlotte and Harry sleep in a full-size bed.
Is that true?
Yes.
Their bed is small. To me, that is the most unbelievable thing about the show.
I'm saying, hold the horn.
You're telling me that Charlotte, who is supposed to live in a massive Upper East Side luxury apartment, is in a full with her husband?
You're smoking crack
crack
you're smoking crack
really is what you're on
you're on reefer
and crack because
that is just not true
and also you know what else isn't
true
Miranda sleeping
in like a twin xl sound booth at her friend's house
i say girl get it together you're embarrassing what are they trying to do i think they're trying
to do something there by putting all of like by putting miranda carrie and charlotte in like
small beds because carrie's back in the old apartment in her old bed,
which is also full of them.
Don't believe it for a second.
Do not believe it for a second.
These women have tasted
the highest heights and the most rarefied air.
They would not put up with this.
Also, this show is supposed to be aspirational.
Show me a bed I long for show me a bed show me a hastings
mattress with frette sheets frette give us frette what's going on you are giving you are
the duvet and carrie's apartment is actually from Anthropology Home. It's college. It's giving dorm. It's giving Anthropology Home and dorm.
Anthropology Home.
It's Anthropology Home and it's offensive.
I had better taste in my studio on 23rd and 7th Avenue in 2009.
Okay?
Okay.
Well, here's the thing.
I don't see a world in which it gets renewed.
And I think this is really the last. I don't think so either in which it gets renewed. And I think this is really the last.
I don't think so either.
This is the last of these women we're ever going to get,
which is really sad to me.
I agree because I don't think
that they would have brought in Samantha
for this, you know, 30 second phone call
that we're going to see.
Because they can't,
they cannot tease us with the notion of samantha
and then have us not get her for a third season like if there is going to be a third season
i actually need kim cattrall to i actually just want it to be about her in london honestly if
we're supposed to believe that's what her life is. Oh my God. Loud American whore.
Slag in London.
Yeah, exactly.
Publicist energy.
You know what though?
You know what's one thing?
It's like, thank God Samantha isn't on and just like that,
because what would they do to her?
What would they, if they've ruined all these characters this much,
and I hate saying it but like yeah what would they
have done to samantha i guess we'll find out i wonder if in the 30 second phone call they're
able to desecrate samantha jones i'm sure don't put it past them i mean don't put it past them
there's something cuckoo crazy about I'm bummed out
talking about this no
that's the thing is it's like even the first season
wasn't like it wasn't
sex in the city but at least you could talk
about it in like insane ways
now it's just like
even the Carrie and Aiden stuff
it's like I just
what exactly
are they saying about Carrie?
Like, I don't know.
Is it that, like, she's falling back into another fantasy?
Is it, like, are we supposed to think, like, that Big was actually this, like, thing that she made a mistake about years ago?
Like, or is she about to learn a new lesson?
It's unclear.
Theoretically, I just can't find it.
Right. I also don't understand how she can, like,
verbalize out loud,
was Big a big mistake?
And then, like,
we just never investigate that further.
Yeah.
Well, I feel like what's being telegraphed
so clearly and obviously
is that, like, something goes wrong
between her and Aiden.
Because so far, there's been no conflict.
There's been no hardship.
Or maybe they are just ending the show
and we are just ending the show
with oh, now Carrie and Aiden
move in together and that's it.
Doesn't that feel sacrilegious though?
Yes, it feels sacrilegious.
The whole thing feels sacrilegious.
Also like since when has Carrie, I mean, I know that Carrie was always a prude,ious the whole thing feels sacrilegious also like since when has carrie
i mean i know that carrie was always a prude but her whole thing was writing about sex and love
and romance and stuff and her now being like don't talk about it oh god don't tell me like i was like
what but then she was at lunch and said the word come i was was like, you guys are crazy. I was like, make a decision about who this woman is.
She's either the woman that can no longer talk about anything sexual.
She can't even talk about a vagina.
I'm sorry, but make a decision about who she is.
She's one of the most well-defined characters in the pop culture lexicon.
She's an icon.
Why are we even having this conversation?
Like, it's one thing for characters to, like, morph and change over time, but, like, she doesn't, none of them seem like themselves.
Except, I guess, Charlotte.
But no, she's not sleeping in a full.
Charlotte's not sleeping in a full.
Charlotte wouldn't have fucked a guy in a full.
Period.
Let alone, like, let that be her wedding bed you're so you guys are so right like
these women would not tolerate a full-size bed or a twin in a fucking recording studio room also
you know what honey please like show me the hamptons house like one of you has to have one. One of you has to have one.
And by the way, I don't want to
see Seema and
Carrie doing a timeshare.
Well, you're not going to now.
Okay, that was one thing I liked.
One thing I liked was Seema being like,
I need space from you because you make me
feel bad. I loved that.
Loved that scene.
But I'm also going,
because literally Carrie's like, this the episode two episodes ago the episode ends on carrie like leaving her
apartment and going and just like that i went to meet you know aiden's kids or whatever the
fuck in virginia cut to the next episode we're back in new york which maybe it's like a new york
show and that's why we don't see it but But I'm like, take us somewhere a little bit more provincial.
Like, why not?
Or pastoral or whatever.
One of the most iconic episodes was LA.
And also her going to Aiden's City Girl in the woods.
Yes, yes, yes.
She goes to his cabin and she freaks out.
And Samantha fucks like the...
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Is it just a budget thing?
Do we think it's just budget?
How can it possibly be, right?
Like, I mean...
I just don't know.
I mean, I feel like they blow
a lot of the budget on the fashion.
Uh-huh.
What fashion?
Well, I mean...
Hmm.
Who?
Which character's wearing fashion?
LTW? I have news for you. Who? Which character's wearing fashion? LTW?
I have news for you.
There's difference between costume and fashion.
My girl is still living on Sesame Street.
Yeah, it's... It's still Sesame Street.
Big Bird come out in things that could be the Met Gala compared to what LTW looks like.
Wow. was just the tip of the iceberg. You're recording us? I am disgusted.
Never in a million years after everything we've been through did I think that you would reach out to our sworn enemy.
We were friends.
How could you do this to me?
I don't trust her.

Wait, Bowen, are you drinking one of my all-time top five favorite beverages,
Triple X Vitamin Water? I asked my sister if she had Gatorade because I need electrolytes,
I need hydration. She said, I have Triple X Vitamin Water. Yes, she does. Dragon fruit,
dragon fruit. I haven't had this since high school and
I'm loving it. It is a treat and a half. Vitamin water goes down as one of my most favorite
inventions. I liked the dragon fruit a lot. Yeah. I have a joke in my show about vitamin water.
Oh my God. Let's talk about vitamin water for a second because do y'all remember,
do y'all remember when vitamin Water stepped onto the world stage?
Because it was a moment.
Yes. It honestly
changed culture. Vitamin Water,
I will say, changed culture.
Because guess what? You're reading the labels,
you're laughing out loud
going, who did this? This is so
funny. I think Tina Fey.
Tina Fey.
I think Tina Fey did the copy for vitamin i think 50 cent
reached out to ms fey and said hey mama love your jokes does 50 cent own vitamin water
yeah it was his i think he he was an investor in vitamin water it was like oh my god he was He was... Curtis. Curtis. Curtis. Hmm.
Curtis.
Now, what really rocked my world was the lemonade.
Oh, everyone freaked it for the lemonade.
Everyone freaked it for the lemonade, too, because you could... It was delicious with a splash of, one might say, very inexpensive vodka.
You're so right.
Oh, my God. We grew up in a really interesting time. Oh, so right. Oh my God.
We grew up in a really interesting time.
We really did.
Sorry, Greta.
Were you going to say something?
No, I was just going to say 2005,
kind of the year of vitamin water in many ways.
The year of vitamin water,
the year of Mike's Hard Lemonade,
the year of...
Smirnoff Ice.
Smirnoff Ice. That Four Loko was 2010. I would say Sparks. of Mike's Hard Lemonade, the year of... I mean... Smearing off ice? Smearing off ice?
That Four Loko was 2010.
I would say Sparks.
Remember Sparks? That was out in
2004. Hey, I just want to
say, forget what I said about the Four Loko
because that was later. That was in 2010.
So I was wrong.
Well, we had to correct you.
What is Sparks?
Sparks was... I think Sparks is illegal. It is. I think Four Loko's illegal. Sparks is legal now. What is Sparks? Sparks was a... I think Sparks is illegal.
It is. I think For Loco's illegal.
Sparks is legal. For Loco,
their new iteration is legal.
Their new formulation is different.
Sparks was literally
a Red Bull mixed
with malt liquor.
And it was crazy.
And I used to hide... What is?
I used to hide cans... I had a
hat box in my room growing up. And I used to hide I had a hat box in my
room growing up and I used to
hide cans of sparks in
my hat box. Wait
Greta showed me the most
fucked up stupid picture
of her with four Modellos
taped to her body
under a maxi dress so she could
sneak into Madison Square Garden to see
what artist
I think I was going to under a maxi dress so she could sneak into Madison Square Garden to see what artist.
I think I was going to,
no, I think I was actually going to a hockey game
at the time.
Jesus.
So you snuggled in the Modelo?
I did.
I can show you the pic.
I'll send it to you.
Honestly, that should be
the photo for the episode
this week.
I'll send it to you.
It's really good.
Yeah, we need it.
Yeah.
I remember my mom found my
sparks.
My mom takes it out.
My mom just goes, what the fuck is this?
And I explained it
to her and she looked at me and she
was like, there's something really wrong
with you. And then just put it back in the
hat box. Oh my
God. Do you think she should have punished
you more? No.
She was over it.
She was just like, I was telling Matt,
we were talking about things
our moms would say this
morning and my mom would always
just be like, enough with me.
Enough. Greta said that basically
Maria's, I don't think so honey,
would be y'all with
all your milks
explain this
she would not tolerate the milks
no she would just be like this is enough this is so fucking
crazy
drink skim milk
like a lady
or don't have any milk at all
take it black
I think we are at critical match with milk.
Like there's no need for a new kind of milk.
I think there's,
there's a milk for every occasion.
It also,
it gets embarrassing.
Like imagine,
I mean,
they make it,
but it's like going out being like,
can I get the,
can I get a pistachio almond milk latte?
Like grow up,
grow up.
Although Starbucks matcha latte with coconut milk is heaven you
feel like you're on an island he wants an endorsement no no no i'm just saying i love it
i would like to say coconut milk has been around for a very very very very very long time coconut
milk is not new you're saying the newer girls.
I'm saying the newer girls.
I'm saying the macadamia nut girls.
I'm saying hemp seed girls.
I'm saying pumpkin seed milk.
I'm saying pistachio milk.
I'm saying, it's like, come on.
Pumpkin seed?
I've never heard of that before.
They had it at Irving.
Irving Plaza?
No, the Irving Farm. Irving Farm.
Irving Farm.
Yeah, they had it there.
That sounds like it takes
a million
dollars to make.
To fucking condense the pumpkin seed into milk.
Worse than almond milk.
The energy expenditure is probably crazy.
You're right.
Maria is right.
You guys really are my two chic friends.
You can talk about such interesting milks.
I do have a question for the choir.
Since this show is about culture,
do you feel that
Likely story?
Likely story.
Do you feel that
there is a perfect television
show that didn't ever go wrong in seasons and seasons and seasons?
Um, yeah.
I think that pretty unimpeachable.
I mean, for me, Mad Men was pretty unimpeachable.
Mad Men, I'm going to say something kind of sure, like eye roll.
But I have been getting back into Seinfeld,
and I'm like, God, this works.
It's timeless.
Yeah, it really is timeless.
More recently, I don't know.
Everything either goes on too long or ruins itself.
I didn't know that the four of them blocked themselves on Seinfeld.
Oh, I love that.
They would all walk on. They'd walk into Jerry's apartment and be like, that the four of them blocked themselves on Seinfeld. Oh, I love that.
They would all walk on,
they'd walk into Jerry's apartment and be like,
okay, I think George would go here and eat some cereal over here.
Or he's just talking to Elaine.
Elaine's sitting down on the couch.
They were all just like, so we got this.
Well, that's what makes it so magical.
I know, I know.
And then the fact that the four of them are all from different backgrounds,
Jerry from stand-up, Julia
from sketch, Jason
from theater, and I guess like
Michael from... He's stand-up.
Character actor? Oh, he's a stand-up?
He was, yeah. He was.
Okay, great, great. But it's like
they had such... It's so...
It's such... That is like when casting
was, ooh, perfect.
Like you've got, you got these four people exactly right.
And they carry the show together equally.
And it's like, it's never one person over the other.
Even like, well, back in the day, like the multi-cam of it all, when some of those shows would really work, they would really work.
Like Cheers, have you ever watched old Cheers?
Like Cheers, like really worked. Like say ever watch old cheers like cheers like really worked
like say what you will about friends friends really work i mean will and grace will and grace
really worked will and grace really worked just shoot me i loved and me too freaking um but with
friends it is like yeah say what you will it is like they found six hot people who all were so fucking funny.
And believably friends.
Like, no problem.
I'm watching.
That's why it's a cultural phenomenon.
I really feel like,
sometimes I do feel like I missed my calling,
my era for multicam.
Oh, you would have been great.
I feel like I would have loved to do multicam.
You could have been like Joey.
Maybe. I think so. We would have all nailed do multi-cam. You could have been like Joey. Maybe.
I think so.
We would have all nailed.
I'm sorry to say this,
and this sounds so fucking stupid and masturbatory.
We would have all nailed multi-cam.
You nail multi-cam now, queen.
Yeah, you do.
You are Emmy-nominated multi-cam performer.
No, no, no.
It's different.
You are noted multi-Emmy-nominated multi-cam performer,
Bowen Yang.
I want multi-cam where I'm playing
a character.
We can do that. Let's do it.
Let's pitch a show.
Two guys and a girl above a pizza parlor.
Yes!
If the three of us
rebooted Two Guys and a Girl
and you don't think it would go in a second,
you're deeply mistaken.
Bidding war down.
I mean, I always wanted to be on Boy Meets World. You don't think it would go in a second. You're deeply mistaken. Bidding war down. Yeah, period.
I mean, I always wanted to be on Boy Meets World.
Like, I always wanted to be on that show. Oh, my God.
Loved it.
Loved it.
And, of course, I wanted to be Lizzie McGuire, but who didn't?
Everyone wanted to be Lizzie.
Everyone wanted to be Lizzie.
I was Team Lizzie.
Not that Lizzie was ever in the, you know, sitcom space, but...
It was the may he rest.
It was the Aaron Carter kind of
controversy between
Hillary and Lindsay.
Oh, right.
You know, I do have
some piping hot
TTT on the teens
of that time.
What?
We can't share on the pod, I don't think.
Oh my god.
It's like a horse scandal.
Wait, can I ask one more question?
Now I'm in control of the podcast now.
Yes.
Me and Ruby have been talking about this a lot.
Ruby's my roommate here.
Happy birthday, Ruby McAllister.
We love you, Ruby.
An iconic Leo woman.
A lioness.
She is one of the best we have.
See her show Tragedy at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Sorry, your question.
Well, Ruby and I have been going back and forth on this.
And these are like really dumb, big questions.
But when we're trying to get our mind off of spiraling into extreme existentialism, we are just like, whatever.
If you had to pick a band, I mean, we're doing it by decade.
So I'm going to ask you, in a band from 2000 to 2010, a band, a singer, whatever, that you could be.
But I don't mean just on stage.
I meant be in their life.
Who would you have chosen from that time?
If I could be someone that was in a band during
that time, 2000 to
2010. You mean like
if you could hang out with the band?
No, like I am
I am Christina
Aguilera. Who?
Switchfoot.
I was
obsessed with Switchfoot.
Aren't they Christian?
Yeah, they are Christian.
Yeah.
Tell you to move.
But it was a walk to remember.
It hooked me.
And I was like, who is this singer?
Beautiful voice.
Beautiful voice.
Truly.
Gorgeous.
I actually, I think I have my answer.
Okay.
So 2000 to 2010.
Yeah.
During this time, a band that was cool and had a lot of potential.
Mermaid Five.
And would, yeah, I would be Adam Levine.
Because also in Adam Levine's straight body, guarantee he was fucking models.
He was just like.
He's still fucking a model.
Well, yes.
But at the time, when he was like a single guy yeah
he probably was like but remember the ad and i remember the first time i ever saw him the first
time i ever saw adam levine i think i was like 12 or 13 when i first heard harder to breathe and i
said who is singing this i have to find out right now i loved his voice i thought it was justin
timberlake and then i come to find out it was Adam Levine. Then I watched the This Love music video.
I thought he is so fucking hot.
I was so into him.
I would be him if I could go back.
Yes, that is the perfect answer for Matt.
Wasn't he like wearing suits back in the day?
Like that era?
He was.
So their first album, Songs About Jane,
which is so good.
I would say one of the best albums from that decade.
A hundred percent. It was so good.
It won't be soon before long. Their second, they had a great sophomore album too.
Yes, they did. It had that song.
I won't go home without you.
The really good, and I loved that and I loved them.
And then they, I think they just went like pop cringe, which like, say what you want. Like they, they, they cashed in on the ability to do that. And I loved them. And then they, I think they just went like pop cringe,
which like,
say what you want.
Like they,
they,
they cashed in on the ability to do that.
Coldplay did that.
Such a pop sound.
Yeah.
They all did it,
but they fully did it and then became,
you know,
Maroon 5.
But back in the day,
they really actually were cool.
And he was so hot to me.
I loved everything about him.
I literally couldn't control myself when I saw him.
I was like,
that guy is my crush.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They did SNL.
They,
and they sang,
that was the first time I heard this love.
And I was like,
this song was amazing.
Who is that guy in a,
in a fucking suit?
It was so funny.
Unrecognizable.
That was the time when like a lot of those bands were doing this suit thing.
Like,
remember like the vines. Remember The Vines?
Remember that whole genre of indie rock?
That was also Justin Timberlake doing suit and tie.
Literally suit and tie branding himself what it was.
But yeah, that was like, guys were cool.
Guys were cool.
I would have also been, I don't know if this counts, Greta,
and we need to hear your answer.
Okay.
But I would have loved to be like
Sufjan Stevens in that era.
Oh, no, that counts.
Like, my pick is Karen O.
I would have loved to have been
Karen O, 2000 to 2010.
Didn't we think we saw her?
We did.
Wait, where were we?
Oh, my God.
She was my gorgeous.
And Matt kept on, I was freaking out. And Matt was being insane she got up we were we were at the table next to next to you were i
have to tell you you were being crazy she gets up at the table and stands she stands staring at this
woman and i that's one cool thing about me is i'm so uncool i don't know who karen o is
so greta is staring at this woman and i thought do you have like a vendetta against this family
it was giving psycho killer and then i'm like let's go i drag her out and she goes that was
karen o i was like oh yeah i was like karen o mean, still is, but of that time was no one was cooler than Karen O.
No one was cooler than Karen O.
I 100% agree.
No one was her stage presence.
She kind of just like weird, like Bowie, like Artie, like, I don't know, kind of Bjork-y vibe happening.
It's just like she was so many things in one body.
And I love the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
I love their music so much.
And I just like, they're so good live.
I mean, they still are, but you know.
That's a perfect answer.
Yeah, that is my 2000 to 2010 answer obviously i i would
not want to be this person but of course we're so curious what was it like to be a pop girly at that
time i don't want to know because it was awful and i would never want to be in that body oh yeah
terrible no terrible to be picked apart as much as they
were. It's just crazy.
Well, you have no autonomy. You have no
control over your life, period.
But you know who really took
the reins? I'm not even joking.
Mandy Moore.
Mandy Moore really was like, I'm not doing all this.
Let me switch to acting.
And let me release
a covers album for my third album
she went I'm already gonna like
pivot change direction I'm already gonna do
like covers like I'm not
gonna be a pop star I'm gonna do like
can we still be friends
I'm like that is a choice and she picked cool music
too like not one of those covers
was like a one
to one this is what Mandy Moore at the time
would be singing it was like a one-to-one, this is what Mandy Moore at the time would be singing.
It was like,
Have a little faith in me.
Can I just say...
She has such a good voice.
She has such a good voice.
She's a good one.
She's important.
Oh, no.
She's respected.
She's an Emmy-nominated actress.
Who, by the way,
walk to remember, as Bowen mentioned,
but a few moments ago,
breathtaking performance in said film.
You gotta rewatch Saved.
Saved. That came up on my
Instagram. Her layered
haircut in Saved is
crazy. The scene where she's
emphatically praying
is like, oh my god.
She really went there.
Mandy Moore was a
devout actress. She was a
Christian, devout
icon. That cast
in that film is amazing.
Jenna Malone, right?
Jenna Malone,
Macaulay Culkin,
Susan Sarandon's daughter with the
huge tits, Patrick
Fugit. Oh, wow. Just to
go really quickly back to A Walk to Remember,
we don't talk about the
iconography of this exchange.
Shane West,
I want to kiss you.
Mandy, I think I might be bad at it.
Shane, that's
not possible.
Not possible.
Just promise not to fall in love with me oh my god
okay what
the way that I
sobbed and sobbed
by the way shout out to Adam Shankman
the director
shout out we love you Adam
so at the end of the movie
when you hear her iconic,
I'll always remember.
And then her love is like the wind.
I can't see it.
But I can feel it.
But I can feel it.
Yeah.
Shane was, I was like whacking.
See, him, another one.
He was a constant.
I was whacking.
He was a constant cum.
Involuntary cum.
You know what I will say? Shane West.
The one good thing about 20... Oh, wait, I saw... Hands-free
anal orgasm.
I'm psyched for Shane
West. I can feel my...
Anal orgasm.
Oh, my God. 8.3 Richter
scale rattle when I saw
Shane West and his weird little voice.
I saw Shane West.
Were you with me when I saw him at El Compadre
in LA, like over during
peak COVID eating outside?
No, but do you want to...
I'm going to whisper in her ear.
Do you want to tell your story about...
No.
Oh my God.
Greta has so many stories.
Greta hooked up with a teen idol one time
and it's my favorite story I've ever heard,
but none of you will ever know.
None of you will ever know.
I did hook up with a teen idol one time
and I did, yeah,
there was a fingering situation happening.

I need to read it.
His book is steaming hot tea.
Hmm.
Well, we might need one from Greta

Your book is going to be good.
I will say, sadly, it was just fingering.

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. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple

It's time for
I Don't Think So, Honey.
This is our 60-second segment
that we do
on every episode
of Lost Culture Recess.
Today is no different.
I'm going to be returning
to the top,
the themes of the top.
Yes.
Themes of the top,
aka my look.
Just kidding. More reverse bottom these days for the old age uh age okay i'm ready something this is matt
rogers i don't think so many as time starts now i don't think so honey calling them toilets
all over europe it's like where's the toilet signs that say toilet toilet is a disgusting word that i
don't think so honey about they're called restrooms they're called bathrooms if we're in europe
capitalize on your language and call it the loo toilet this is a disgusting hard word to wrap my
head around when i go to the toilet that is the literal toilet itself
not the room that it's in can we have some goddamn mystery for once in my life when you say toilet
i'm thinking of i can they can basically taste it and smell it the poop and 15 seconds when you say
restroom i think a place you go to relieve yourself fine that. That's couth. Aren't we supposed to have some
taste here in Europe? Isn't it supposed to be
refined? Isn't it supposed to be the
pinnacle of culture? Then how come over
in America they're slaying it by calling it a bathroom?
I don't think it's the only toilet.
And that's one minute.
Now, I don't disagree with you.
I don't disagree with you, but bathroom
is not even that accurate either, right?
You're not taking baths in there.
No, you're not taking a bath.
Listen, all this, I'm waving my hand at it.
I say this.
Two things.
One, put it all in one room.
I don't want to have to take a shit and then leave.
I agree.
The toilet closet.
Is that what they call it?
The water closet.
The water closet.
No.
These are also two weird words together.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Those are my notes.
I don't know.
Okay.
That is very,
very brave.
People don't talk about this enough.
I just love the way he said that.
That is a very,
very,
very brave.
That is very,
very brave.
He's proud of me.
Okay.
Well,
this is Bowen Yang's.
I don't think so,
honey. And his time starts now. I don't think so honey and his time starts now
i don't think so honey unicorns my nieces love unicorns and i went you know what
it's disgusting how come most of them are white it's giving supremacy period it has it has a horn
that's disgusting i don't a horse should not have a horn that's dangerous that could really hurt someone and
these unicorns are not real so why are these kids obsessed with a fake animal they should be
worshiping dolphins get unicorns out of the pantheon of animals that kids 30 seconds they
should just worship a horse like we all did growing up I don't think unicorns I think unicorns are
really invading the culture of kids now.
And I don't like it because guess what?
It sets up unreal expectations.
They're going to grow up and find out they're not real.
And then they're going to be crushed.
That's their first trauma.
Okay.
And I'm not going to be the one to pick up the pieces
for this generation.
They're going to have to do it themselves.
Unicorns, you are ruining a whole,
you are cratering a whole generation of children. And that's
one minute. The amount of
kids who believe
that dragons are real
because of Game of Thrones,
they really think this. They really
do. They think it
and they're not gonna
not think it because they don't have you.
Add it to the list of things
that we have to just tell kids about.
Eventually we tell them Santa isn't real.
Unicorns aren't real.
Dragons aren't real.
It is too much.
It is too much.
And you know what probably smells terrible?
A unicorn's horn.
Why do you think it smells terrible?
People touch it.
It's disgusting.
It's essentially like, it's an exposed bone.
Ew.
Do you think that an elephant's tusks smell bad?
Yes.
I don't know.
Probably.
Probably smells like manure.
Probably smells like dirty elephant poo.
Smells like poo, water.
Horrible.
I just can't with these unicorns and here's the thing
you know what's better in theory than a practice a horse
i'm way better in theory than practice i know i know a horse is spun in a picture but not in real
life i took a picture with one the other day you guys guys. Did I want to kiss it? No. No.
Also, I don't think so many.
Bone was almost killed by a horse.
Why did that story get so much pickup, by the way?
Because I think that people were trying to make something out of nothing with you shading the crew.
I wasn't shading the crew.
Wait, what was the story?
Tell the story.
The crew was, the story is that the you know and our first AD
Adam Ascoff
who I love
texted me
and apologized
and I said
Adam it's not
it's no problem
oh my god
the crew in Iceland
decided to film
a shot with a drone
of me
and Nora
on horses
and of course
the drone
freaked out the horses
and I almost got
fucking thrown off
yeah
you almost got buck thrown off. Yeah.
And you know what? You know what would have been a crazy headline?
Bowen Yang, 32.
Promising Emmy
nominated multi-cam actor.
Thrown from horse.
In ice flames.
You know, if unicorns
weren't real, you could have been
killed. Had that been a unicorn and not a horse real you could have been killed had that been a unicorn
and not a horse
you would have been impaled
you would have been impaled by the horn
I would have died
a smelly horn
a stinky poop horn
I can't imagine a worse headline
than Bowen Yang
thrown from a horse
he passed away
being sabred he passed away. Being sabered.
He passed away.
Bowen Yang passed.
If I had gotten a call, we have some bad news, Matt.
Don't.
Don't, Matt.
What happened?
This is going to make me cry.
Bowen.
I'm going to cry.
I said, what?
He's gone.
They said, he's gone.
I said, how?
They said,
he was doing an episode of Nora.
I said,
what happened?
Look at me crying. Look at me.
Oh my god. Get close.
Get close. They said,
he didn't make it.
I said, what?
They said, he was riding a horse. I said, what episode was this? They said, what? They said he was riding a horse.
I said, what episode was this?
They said, well, they went to Iceland.
They were doing a really funny story.
Finally, Bowen's character got explored.
In a deeper than surface way.
And he was riding a horse. It was
such a funny scene on paper.
He
didn't make it when he was thrown
from the horse. He just
he was killed.
I said,
well, we have to have
an episode this week of Lost Gulch.
They said, can you get Suti?
I said, probably.
I said, let me
text her. I said, wait, hold on.
Is there going to be a funeral? Like, what
the fuck? They were like,
probably. You have
to talk to the family. I was like, oh my
God, Jesus Christ.
And then finally, this is the kicker.
They go, we need you to come down
to identify the body.
Oh my God, they made me come all the way to Iceland
to identify the body.
He was mauled.
I can barely see his face.
He had the elephant.
I mean, the horse.
The horse stomped his face out.
I said, my sister.
Not my girl.
Not like this.
They said, oh,
sir. They said, oh, sir.
This is why you would soar
in multicam. That's really good,
Matthew. One take.
I think it's time for Greta's I Don't Think So Honey.
Okay.
Wait, do you want to time me?
Bowen's going to time you so you can see on the
screen okay okay this is greta teilman's i don't think so honey her time starts now
i don't think so honey military time okay because here's my thing if you have it on your screen
what do you think you're better than me that you're looking at your time in some european code
honey you're not in the military okay and also if
i'm meeting up with you and you have military time on your phone you better say we're meeting at 22
30 honey because unless you're using my time which is you know 8 30 p.m 30 seconds people
that use military time you're not saying let's meet up at zero o'clock.
You're not saying, oh, I was out until 004.
Oh, we had dinner last night at 2145.
No, bitch.
15 seconds.
You are saying it in the 12-hour clock.
So I'm done.
Military time, we have it in the title.
It's for the military, the militia, the Navy, the army men,
the fighters, the firemen,
the military, period.
And I'm proud to be an American.
And I'm proud to be an
American with my 12
hour clock. Nice try
Lieutenant Dan. How about you tell me we're
meeting at 830? Yeah.
This actually is a good segue.
Bowen, Greta and I were having a conversation just now at lunch,30. Yeah. This actually is a good segue. Bowen,
Greta and I were having
a conversation
just now at lunch,
like we do.
Greta says,
and Bowen is one of
this actress's
foremost fans,
did Natalie Portman
serve in the Israeli military
for two years?
No, not two.
She was a...
No.
I told you she didn't.
No, what did I say?
She grew up on Long Island.
That's what I said!
What did I say I was going to tell Bowen?
What?
Oh, that you think it's funny that Gal Gadot
was in the Israeli military?
And Gal Gadot.
She was the one who served.
I think I'm going to start a rumor
that Natalie Portman
served in the military
and was a drone operator.
That's a nasty rumor.
I did an impression of Natalie Portman
driving a drone.
It was like this.
Don't my tail!
And then I said,
what if she was like
rehearsing her Jackie accent
while she was doing the...
Like, they're on my tail.
They're on my tail.
They're on my tail.
I'm on the joystick.
I'm on the...
Joystick.
Look at my grip.
I can't do it.
I think you can.
Look at my grip. Look at my grip. Look at my grip. Jack. They're on my grip. I can't do it. I think you can. Look at my grip.
Look at my grip.
They're on my tip.
Look at my grip, Jack.
It's me and Orna
operating the drones.
Operating.
I can't do it. I need to learn
that accent. It's just Great Gardens.
It's just Great Gardens. Operating the drone. No, with Atlantic. I can't do it. I need to learn that accent. It's like the mid-Atlantic. It's just Grey Gardens.
Operating the draw.
No, mid-Atlantic.
I can't do it.
I can't.
I used to be so good at...
It's like Laura McCall.
It's like talking, like...
I think the three of us are so good at accents in moments.
But something about today in this episode,
I'll speak for myself.
I'm so sorry to bring you guys into this.
I feel like I have not really stepped up to my accent game.
No, we've been doing awful accent work today.
I mean, my Scottish accent, terrible.
What are you talking about?
I think you've been amazing.
I think we've done a good job.
Just do Alan Cumming if you're going to do Scottish.
Oh, well, I love Serving You.
Oh, I love Serving You.
I mean, to quote my most favorite movie of all time, coming if you're going to do Scottish. Oh, I love Slovenia. I love Slovenia.
I mean, to quote my most favorite movie of all time,
and I'm going to
say it, and I'll see if you two know what it's from,
I could eat this
for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Yeah, the Colin Farrell sex tape.
I'm eating breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
I fucking hear.
That is the hottest sex tape
ever of all time. Ever of all time, yes. in her right fucking ear. Mm-hmm. That is the hottest sex tape ever.
Ever of all time.
Ever of all time, yes.
I know.
I love Sharon Osbourne.
Do you ever hear
Sharon Osbourne's review
of that sex tape?
No.
She goes,
he's got a dick
like a salami.
And we're back.
We're back to the accents
being on point.
He's got a dick
like a salami.
He's got a dick
like a salami.
She said it on the talk.
Oh, I wish it was a show that I do miss,
or the Osbournes.
Well, what do you miss about it?
Hold on, here's my thing.
I'm feeling really not seen in my culture this episode.
I bring up, God forbid, I bring up Jack Ryan
and the Osbournes.
I was affirming you.
I've been affirming you this whole episode.
Do you see his energy to me?
He's sitting reclined in a chair
like he wants me to pass him
a fucking four-foot
Ildalf bong, okay?
And, you know,
I'm over here...
Just doing your best.
We're all literally
just doing our best, aren't we?
That's the thing.
That's nice. We are.
Well, if you are in Edinburgh,
Scotland, you've got to
go see Exquisite Lies.
Yes, please go to my show.
And there's also tons of other amazing
shows. I'm excited because
well, by the time this episode is
out, she'll be gone. But
Patty Harrison's My Huge Tits Huge Because Infected Not Fake
has been a real barn burner here.
Hit, hit, hit.
Reuben McAllister's Tragedy.
Tragedy.
Megan Salter's Night of Mayhem.
And many others.
And many others.
And many, many more.
And we're going to see them in exchange later.
I love it.
It is literally culture.
I will say one final, I don't think so, honey thought is that, you know,
reviewing is a huge part of the culture out here.
I'm getting reviews, getting written up.
And thankfully, knock on wood, I've gotten some very nice reviews,
but I did get one not so nice review.
And here's my thing.
If you want, if you are a reviewer or someone that's interested in that give a pov don't just summarize what happens in a show oh and then
at the end this person said uh after summarizing my show basically using my words that I have written about my show. She said, there are some
laughs, but
Greta is so unlikable
on stage
that if there's one thing I know for
certain, Titleman
won't be leaving Edinburgh with
any new friends.
That's just crazy.
That is the most ad hominem bullshit. That is just crazy. That is the most
ad hominem bullshit.
That is so personal. That is so like, this person
What does that have anything
to do with the fucking show, you fucking idiot?
Also, honey, I'm here for work.
You think I'm here? I mean, and by the way, I am
making absolutely fabulous, lovely
friends. Thank you very much.
Literally, you're not there to make friends.
No. Period.
That's stupid as hell.
I know.
Dumb as shit.
Dumb as a unicorn's shit tusk.
Ew.
Bowen, are you feeling better?
I don't know.
I think the Tylenol is kicking in.
I think my hope is that I broke my fever last night and I'm on the up and up.
If I miss Vegas, I will never forgive myself.
You're not going to.
No, I don't want to even talk about that.
Can you go and get a vitamin infusion?
Can you go and get a shot of B12, vitamin D?
You need a prescription.
No, you don't.
You need a prescription for that.
Call the IV people.
Yeah, you don't need a prescription.
Get the IV doctor to come over.
They'll come to your house.
Yeah.
Hmm.
I'm going to look into it then.
And you can also just go and get a shot,
like a vitamin shot in your ass
take it in the butt boat
I love them I miss getting those
shots in my ass
we have to end this episode
with a song because that's what we do every single time
I'll always remember
it was late afternoon
it lasted forever
And ended so soon
Yeah
You were all by yourself
Staring out at the dark, dark, gray sky
I was changed
In places no one will find
All the feelings so deep inside
Deep inside
Was there that I realized
That forever was in your eyes
The moment I saw you cry.
Cry.
The moment that I saw you cry.
Oh, no, no.
I wanted to hold you.
I wanted to make it go away. I wanted to know you. I wanted to make it go away.
I wanted to know
you. I wanted to
make you everything.
Alright!
For more of that,
listen to A Walk to Remember
soundtrack. And her love is like
the wind. Can't see it,
but I feel it.
