Las Culturistas.
Ding dong.
Las Culturistas calling.
You blew out the mic just now, you loud, stupid bitch.
I'm excited for this day.
I'm excited for this day, too.
But you came in.
With an energy.
Just white hot.
Like a snake.
Like a snake. Like a white hot snake. Like a white snake the band the hair metal band exactly them not hair metal they were hair rock hair rock yeah it's a
rule of culture number nine hair rock it's well the full rule is white snake white snake was hair
rock and i think that reads and the reason i came with us in a certain type of way
today is because i feel very proud of our guests but also a deep betrayal from our guests okay
because now he's a prestige actress and that's a betrayal it's a betrayal deep betrayal so we were
all supposed to be in basements together forever now and our guests went on ahead and became a
prestige actress the moment I saw our guest perform
when I was young,
when I was but a zygote, I thought
he will ascend to prestige
actress. It's incredible when
you see someone that you used to know become
a prestige actress, and I feel that
we might even have the title of
Epis Prestige Actress. Absolutely.
Because you see them
change. I do. I don't mean to mention this right
off the top but i i saw them on set like i was like i saw them from video village and i was like
there's a fucking prestige actress we'll talk about this and it's crazy like i don't know i
came in today with a certain type of white hot white snake hair rock energy and i of course like you know me i'm at a 12 at all times and i found
what i found when i came in this room was you two prestige actresses sitting talking quietly we had
a lived in conversation about therapy oh that's what that's that's what you were coming in on you
have to be able to accept the energy of a room that existed, that was the reality before you came into it.
It's something I've been told many times to read the room.
It is pure solipsism with you.
Your reality is the only true reality.
It's unacceptable, and you have to correct.
I'm pure solipsism.
Yes.
I'm going to put that in my Twitter bio.
Pure solipsism.
Pure solipsism.
I think that would be so fun.
Can you define solipsist?
Yeah.
So it's like this,
it's not a philosophical view,
but it's this view that
what I'm experiencing
is the only true thing.
The only thing.
And everyone else is just
a fabrication of my,
the way that I see the world.
Okay.
It's like you literally
don't think other people
are real people.
Well, can I say something?
What?
That's not true. I think you're a real person. I think our other people are real people. Well, can I say something? What? That's not true.
I think you're a real person.
I think our guest is a real person.
Yes.
And I'm very proud of him.
Let's go through the credits.
Proud of her.
Proud of her.
The credits are huge.
This prestige actress will appear in many prestige projects going forward.
He has already appeared in many prestige projects.
And there was, in fact, one of the prestige films of the year.
Truly.
Was Can You Ever Forgive Me?
Starring Ms. Melissa McCarthy.
Starring Ms. Richard E. Grant.
And Ms. Richard E. Grant in a performance.
And Ms. Jane Curtin.
And Ms. Jane Curtin.
Never forget Jane Curtin.
Never forget Jane.
It's actually rule of culture number 12.
Never forget Jane Curtin.
And I felt that Richard E. Grant should win the Oscar.
I felt like. I think Richard E. Grant should win the Oscar. I felt like-
I think Richard E. Grant-
We talked about this in the Natalie Walker episode
that we recorded before the Globes.
I was like-
I hadn't seen it at the time.
I was like, he has to win something.
He's so good at it.
I think he should win the Academy Award.
Oh, that last scene in Julius.
Yes.
You know what I'm talking about?
The look in his eye of just regret.
I'm like, oh my God.
Coach Aristas, you have to go see that.
But our guest was phenomenal phenomenal
the guest the guest that we have today in the room who will speak in moments had was so good
in the in the movie so good in the movie and snooty and very snooty performance snooty in
housing works bookshop extremely snooty and housing works housing works sort of snooty where i said i
don't know about that character i loved that you know what i mean we said, I don't know about that character. I loved that character. You know what I mean?
I don't know about her. I'm that character though.
I know you are.
I am that character.
Pure solipsism.
Pure solipsism.
And so the more I think about it,
the more our guest has even more credits
that are coming up down the pipeline.
The other two.
The other two,
which is a series that we are currently
doing a featureette on several weeks.
Full, what are these called

I will have to take a deep breath.
But let's just...
And can I say,
I've taken so many deep breaths.
I have to take a deep breath
when I remember that this person is in our life.
Is in our life,
is in our friend,
is in our little coterie,
like legendary UCB comedian.
Legendary UCB comedian.
Someone who took a chance
on me and Sam Taggart's crazy fucking show live on
Broadway back in the day when we were just two
fucking nothings.
And he was the Carrie Bradshaw of the show.
He's Carrie Bradshaw. He's done Carrie Bradshaw every time.
He's nailed Carrie Bradshaw every time. For someone who
hasn't ever seen a full episode of Sex and the City,
that's fucking insane. Nailed Carrie Bradshaw.
Isn't that crazy? That's so stupid.
But he is Carrie Bradshaw. Please welcome
our guest, Brandon Scott Jones.
I think he's actually saying that wasn't recording.
It wasn't?
If we had to do it again, you stupid bitch.
Wait, I fully panicked.
I was like, oh my heart.
How dare you?
And see, that's what it is.
These prestige actresses who also have the tricks up their sleeve.
Oh my God.
Fuck you.
Fuck you.

You're some sort of Catherine Han?
That's not a joke to upset people.
That's not a joke.

that was my favorite part
about doing that movie
was wearing all the clothes

I mean I'll never be
indulging Gabbana again
but like I was in it
head to toe
for most of that movie
did you get to keep anything
I did
I did
I got to keep,
they gave me one thing
as when I left.
What did you take?
There's a scene
where I'm riding
on a motorbike

Right.
And I have this leather
Wilson.
Rebel Wilson.
And I have this leather jacket
and I put,
this leather jacket is like,
it's a cropped leather jacket
with like huge long fringe.
Yes.
And they gave it to me
at the end of the me at the end of the
at the end of the movie
because it was the first
scene that I shot
which I thought
was really nice
and I just loved wearing it
even though I can never
wear it in public
like you
I thought about
wearing it here
and I was like
this is the only safe space
that I feel like
you could at least
appreciate it

it is really pretty
you guys would both
here's the thing
it is a sisterhood
of the traveling jacket
like everybody

when they put it on they look really great oh my god you guys have to go's the thing it is a sisterhood of the traveling jacket like everybody who I've had it over when they put it on
they look really great
oh my god
you guys have to go over
and try it on
let's go right now
let's go right now
let's go right now
it's the sisterhood
of the jacket
that only stays
in BSJ's apartment
is there in the film
is there in the film
and you've seen it
so you can kind of
spoil this much
is there a fabulous
montage of trying on clothes
there was
I have seen the film and there
it was supposed to be but i think that might have gotten lifted out now i don't know what version of
the film that i saw right what's gonna be might be thrown back but it might i don't think it i
don't think it will but either i got to do that montage i got to wear all the different i got to
wear all the different clothes oh my god yes it was very fun movie i saw which did not have a montage of trying on
fabulous clothes and they literally made you think we were gonna get that and what movie second act
oh really second act my favorite film of 2018 was a great the it's the best film of the year yeah i
believe we haven't unpacked this you and sudi went to go see second act what here's why i love it
you're swimming in irony right now it's the best film of 2018 please tell us here's why I love it. You're swimming in irony right now. It's the best film of 2018. Please tell us. Here's why I think it's the best film of 2018.
There's a scene where before Leah Remini nails a one-liner,
she unbuttons the top button of her pants.
Which I would like that to be in every film.
Yeah.
That's like Marissa Tomei body work.
She's like, all right, undoes the top button of her pants
and then lays into a joke.
And I'm like, wow.
A subplot of the film, good a subplot of the film a major
subplot of the film is that
Milo Ventimiglia has a perfect ass
it's a major subplot of the film
is there like a twist
no that oh so it's just a flat arc
there's no
there's no growth
a major plot is how his ass is perfect
nice
J-Lo laughs cries and serves looks There's no growth. A major plot is how his ass is perfect. Nice.
J-Lo laughs, cries, and serves looks.
Okay.
She's a star.
And what more could you ask from a woman?
And what else?
Shut up.
And then what?
And then what else? Oh, there's two insane, broad comedic moments that have no sense to them that happen
out of nowhere
so there's one scene where she's
leaving her it is not a comedy like
this like there's not like large
like physical jokes
but at one point she
quits her job at like a supermarket
she's like an assistant manager at a supermarket
and she quits and she
turns around the corner and trips over a fucking um like like chain like you know how they put the chains up to
like i'm yes yes like like like a little like a chain like they put a chain up in between like
the aisles and she flips over and falls on her face. And it comes out of nowhere. And then later on, when she gives this big presentation about this new cream that she created.
At the end, they release a bunch of doves into the air.
The doves get released in the air and they all get hit by a huge truck.
No.
It comes out of nowhere and no one mentions it again.
No one.
That is that scary movie three level.
Regina Hall.
Like, who the fuck did that like who the fuck did that it was like that but it was like i said to sue you when we saw it i was like we need one more
like big stupid yeah and it doesn't happen did you say after the credits maybe it was honestly
it probably was in the post credit it was in the post credit scene like when samuel jackson comes
out with an ipad she's like, oh, come on,
motherfucker.
And then Harry Shum Jr.
is in it.
Harry Shum Jr.
gets his own title card,
gets its own credit.
Gets a SAG nomination.
Gets a SAG nomination for appearing in the movie in the post credit.
I believe that second act was the amazing film of 2018,
the standout film of the year.
And Vanessa Hudgens.
Princess Witch?
No.
No,
Vanessa Hudgens is in it.
And there's a big twist with Vanessa Hudgens,
which I will not reveal.
Really?
She's Milo's ass.
She's Milo's ass.
That's the arc.
That's the arc.
Wow.
You didn't see second act?
No, I wanted to.
Are you kidding?
That's called a Wednesday.
But during this time of year
you see a lot of the serious stuff.
I do see a lot of the...
You like to see all the Oscar films.
I do.
Actually, the two that I haven't seen
were the ones that won
Best Picture this year
at the Golden Globes.
I can give a fuck less
about Green Book.
We've already spent
too much time talking about
Bohemian Rhapsody on this.
We can't even discuss
Bohemian Rhapsody.
I refuse.
Yeah.
I mean, but Green Book,
I also don't care about.
Yeah.
I still, I'm going to
probably see them.
It's just like the act of
like clicking that link
is just,
my fingers haven't done it yet.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Oh, all you need
all you need to do
is just click a link
or maybe the
I have the DVDs
I have
I think that they sent
the stream
to the
to the SAG
you know what
this might be my own
no
this might be my own
I don't think so honey
okay
okay
I'll wait
I'll wait for it
you're gonna hold
you're gonna sit on that one
I'm gonna sit on it
gonna sit on it
what movies have you liked this year
and I know you're gonna say
your own film
yes I did it's really good yeah no I did like can you ever forgive me a lot but i also
loved the favorite that was amazing it was unreal uh i thought that was great and i liked um here's
here's a list of movies that i really enjoyed this year widows i fucking lived for what i thought

Oh, I didn't see that.
I loved All the Boys I've Loved Before.
Sure, sure.
These are my prestige movies.
No, but then like, I guess also, have you seen Roma?
I haven't yet.
Everyone says you have to go to the theater.
Yeah, you should.
I watched it at home and I remember being like ending it
and then being like,
huh,
I wish I saw that in the theater,
but it's really beautiful.
And what,
what is it about that?
Like what people haven't really gotten specific about why you need to go to the theater.
Well,
it's this really like intimate story.
It feels very like an intimate story on like a big panoramic scale,
but also I could have just be regurgitating something I read in like a
review.
On a big panoramic scale.
On a big panoramic scale.
That's something I've heard you say many times.
Yes, exactly. A lot of my work, I try to put on big panoramic scale that's something I've heard you say many times yes exactly
a lot of my work
I try to
put on a panoramic scale
so people see
a not only
it's quality
but also
it's effect
on the world around me
directly
it has to be a panorama
it has to be
70mm wide
that screen
has to be big enough
to hold this
you know what I'm saying
300 dpi
yeah exactly I want 15 million frames a second how many times have you seen That screen has to be big enough to hold this. You know what I'm saying? 300 DPI. Yeah, exactly.
I want 15 million frames a second.
How many times have you seen your own film,
Can You Ever Forgive Me?
I saw it.
I've seen it twice.
Great.
And then, yeah, it was good.
I liked it.
It's really good.
And thank you for finally referring to it as my film.
Yeah, it's your film.

And that's what I always understood.
And Melissa knows that.
She knew it from the day we met. When we were like, I showed up. We were in the trailer. She looked over at me. film yeah it is and that's what i that's what i always understood and melissa knows that she knew
it like from the day we met like when we were like i showed up we were in the trailer she looked over
at me she gave me the eyes like don't fuck this up for me and i looked back at her and i was like

Well, you know, I will never forget it.
So it was a cold January morning.
It looked cold.

It looked really cold.
And that's something that a lot of times
when you're watching a movie,
and I don't know if you guys know this,
but a lot of movies, I will, I'll tell you right now,
are shot
in los angeles and it's warm there this was not shot in los angeles this was shot in new york city
on location where it took place you can and you know it takes place there because it was based
on a book oh baby and that book wasn't fiction. That book was written by Lee Israel.
Yes.
It is based on the book by Lee Israel about her own situation. Yes, correct.
Yeah, about, yeah.
I see.
It's a great, it's honestly like-
You read the book?
I did not.
Though somebody pointed out, this is kind of, this is, you know what?
This made me smile on Twitter.
Somebody pointed out that my character that I do play in the movie which is i'm very
grateful that you guys are loving it but you know it's it's a compact little character arc and i
love it it's an important but it's an important role you i mean that you could actually start a
brand new movie with me running down that street i'll say this with the dog yes you are the i would
say you're the seventh or eighth lead not seventh exactly fifth here's the here's the leads of
the film no melissa richard jane brandon no no melissa richard j i'm sorry brandon but you're

And only then do we get to Brandon Scott Jones.
All right.
And every role is important.
And of course my character's name was Donovan.
Donovan McGon.
Donovan McGon. Was this based on a true character and
i guess somebody on twitter photographed an actual passage from the book where she talks
about meeting that guy at a bookstore and him being like a real rude ape to her and i was like
oh i think that's what it was so i chose not to do any uh historical work Sure. I mean, I did sleep in a bookstore
for prep.
I love that.
You went to Housing Works
just to check out.
He slept there to get prep one night.
I slept there to get prep.
They told him in the morning
they were here
and they got free prep.
I'll sleep here.
I'll sleep in this book.
He's like,
I want to be first.
It's like when people
go line up for video games.
It's like,
I want to be first in line
in the morning for prep.
I want to be first.
Patrovata.
Now,
let me ask you this because I am truly terrified for the day that I have to act first. Petrovada. Now, let me ask you this,
because I am truly terrified for the day
that I have to act over the phone.
Oh, that's hard.
I'm always fascinated by the timing.
Is it someone, like, who between the two recorded first?
Were you acting opposite Melissa's audio,
or were you acting, were you just acting into a void?
I was acting.
During the phone scene. Yeah, no, no, no you just acting into a void? I was acting, during the phone scene.
Yeah, no, no, no.
Oh, you know what?
That scene was, so like where she's on the phone outside
with Richard Grant, that was the first thing,
I think that might've been the first thing
that they shot in the whole movie.
Oh.
And when I'm on the phone talking to them,
that's like two, like a month and a half later.
So I remember, so they had already shot that
and I think they maybe went back and added that side of the phone conversation and so yeah yeah and here's
some fun little movie magic for you also like that that um uh in the bookstore that's actually
i think that was shot in lee's apartment they just dressed part of her apartment to look like
that bookstore i love that oh that's fine when i'm on the phone yeah i love that movie magic
i really i really do love that movie.
I mean,
like the movie is so great
and Mario Heller is just like,
she's like,
have you ever seen her other-
I've watched her do interviews.
Yes.
I haven't seen any of her other work.
And so you cut Brandon off to say that.
Sorry.
Diver teenage girl.
No,
it's just like,
she's just a great,
just a really great,
phenomenal filmmaker.
I've seen her do interviews.
Yes.
I've seen her do interviews.
There's nothing you can tell me
that I haven't heard
from her interviews.
Emily Heller too.
Oh my God.
I love Emily Heller.
So funny.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah.
Very talented family.
Those Hellers.
Those Hellers.
I was telling someone
about Emily Heller's bit
at the Emmys.
Her red carpet bit.
The clutch with Getty Images.
Oh, yeah.
She had a great clutch that said Getty Images on it.
Getty Images.
Oh, who did?
Emily Heller.
Oh, did she?
Oh, my God, that's wild.
And she just held it to her waist, like Getty Images.
I love that.
That is hilarious.
That's so funny.
Also, we can't deny that the star.
Thank you so much.
Oh, my God.
You guys, Cop Producer Andrew just got us all water.
Come on.
Wow, thank you, Hot Producer Andrew.
It tastes really good.
It does really, yeah.
Let's take a break to take a sip of our Poland Spring water bottles.
Thank you, Poland Spring.
A New York institution.
Yum.
Yeah.
So the great thing about the Golden Globes
is that we got the meme of the year, which
is Fiji girl.
Fiji girl.
Fiji girl appearing in.
Can I just say, she, I think she was probably like a bit of SponCon.
Like the Fiji people were like, all right, Alexis, you're going to photo bomb all these
red carpet photos.
And like, that was like engineered.
There was like.
I love it.
Like, okay.
All right.
Yeah.
I loved her but
there were a bunch of fiji girls walking around the carpet all with trays full of fiji with bouquets
of fiji and she was the one who got to sort of sneak into these packs it's like with anything
though it's rule of culture one of you is going to rise to the top let's say it's rule of culture
number right yeah one of you is gonna rise to the top that's what they probably said to all the fiji girls in the beginning of the night this is it like look you
create your destiny right here here's the deal where's gonna be cameras you know that's true
yes what you have is your trays of fiji yeah and your opportunity right now is this indoor
conversation happening or an outdoor conversation i think it happens outside early in the day yeah
and i think all the girls are actually very hot.
Yeah.
Like they're all really, and some of them maybe even had to sit down.
They were up since what?
Probably like three.
I think they were up for a long time.
3 a.m.
3 a.m.
4 a.m.
They were up since 3 a.m. getting hair and makeup.
And also, you know, I think you have to probably have to do a little bit of weight training
to be able to hold all that Fiji.
It's insane.
I mean, this bottle right here, and it's not a Fiji.
No, I have to give it that.
It is a Poland spring.
Yes.
But this is heavy to me.
Oh, this is heavy.
Oh, and imagine.
Imagine more than one of these.
I'm going to try to hold two.
Here.
This is horrible.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
This is horrible.
I'm indoors, and I have to do it.
I mean.
I hated that.
You began sweating immediately.
I did.
Yeah.
I hated that.
I hated that. I hated that.
Imagine having to do that all the time.
Somebody's like, you're holding a bouquet of water.
What?
She was giving you full face, full attitude, full star quality.
I think someone's, what if one of us does that on a red carpet someday as an actual,
like as talent, but our look is we do a tray of Fiji.
I think that'd be fun.
That's a look. That is a good look. That's a good look fiji i think that'd be fun that's a look that is a good
look are you going to the other two premiere i i am yeah you should do that i should that's what
i should do yeah that's what i'm gonna do i think actually i was wondering what i was gonna wear to
it uh you should be fiji girl yeah i should be fiji girl i should well this will come out after
that i believe right around the right around so like maybe the
week after yeah okay it'll be great i'm just saying like take your opportunity yeah exactly
so that's what she did i know i gotta i gotta what was it maximize that is a word that maximize
yes maximize maximize you do you remember that i said that i do it stuck with me it stuck with
me deeply sorry was this one of your green point lunches no this wasn't this i'll tell you where this was bo because you were there this was when we were watching
hairspray live and jennifer hudson was singing and matt was screaming over her singing saying
she's maximizing because she she literally that song is just yes like no she's just like, get me some pumpkin pie.
And she's like, get me some pumpkin pie.
And she's just like giving you Jennifer, maximizing. I thought you were talking about, I know where I've been.

Like she does like smash. She does. And I'm telling you basically. I think you was. I don't know. But now I've been. Like she does like smash.
She does.
Yes.
And I'm telling you basically.

Wait Matt, that's I think on key.
That is on key.
That was like beautiful.
I'm a.
You're an incredible singer.
I'm first and foremost a vocalist.
Wait, and I mean that because I'm gonna.
PSJA.
All right, I won't.
If you don't want
i have to go i i have to say that have you heard of christmas was one i say this is my second year
in a row seeing it it is going to become a family tradition for me because you will do it for the
rest of my life i got emotional i was thinking this he's great like not like nobody in like our
i just feel like there hasn't been like a Christmas classic standard
instant standard
like that
in a long time
oh my gosh
in my world
it filled such
a very specific
must needed thing
yes
and the show
I saw you
after the
I saw you like
immediately after the show
you were kind enough
and I don't want to brag
to your listeners
but I got a comp
that's amazing I know it was incredible I felt really really great I sat next to two people who were just but I got a comp.
That's amazing.
I know.
It was incredible.
I felt really, really great.
I sat next to two people who were just big fans of Matt,
and that was very fun.
That's nice.
But then I saw you after, and my heart was beating so fast
because I was like,
I could not believe.
The talent.
The talent.
Yeah.
I couldn't believe the talent because I knew the man. I could not believe. The talent. The talent. Yeah. I couldn't believe the talent.
Because I knew the man.
I believe the man.
I believe her.
But the talent.
But the talent.
Good Lord.
I was really.
The prestige actress.
I'm sitting here like, that was your introduction for me.
I was bowled over by that.
By you being so kind about it at the end.
And like, that was a really good special show
you missed that one you were at the one on the 18th but this is the one on the 22nd which is
like the culmination of the last one felt like the last thing i was doing in the year it's like
when they film the hbo special of the concert tour yeah you know what i'm saying it's like that yeah
oh my god it was it was literally imagine digital get down for three hours digital get down was your
example oh my god that was that's my favorite show to do.
And I'm so excited for what we're going to do with it next year.
Cause I think,
I think there's going to be,
I think I might have some fun with venues.
Maybe.
Potentially.
I potentially,
potentially,
I think I might actually make good on my threat to make it a real album.
Thank you.
You have to,
you have enough material.
Yeah.
And also I've been playing it on YouTube for people and like pointing the phone in their face.
Because I do think part of watching it or listening to it is watching you sing it.
And I mean, I'm being serious.
It is like, it is wild.
I was really, I was blown away.
So what have you been doing, Bowen?
Truly nothing.
Thank you.
That means a lot to me.
No.
It's real.
It's real.
Grab my hand. Thank you, bitch. a lot to me. No. It's real. It's real. Crap my hand.
Thank you, bitch.
No, of course.
I genuinely mean it.
I genuinely mean it.
I think Matt has really, I think this is his year.
Oh, gosh.
I truly think this is his year.
This is.
Would we call last year your year?
I would say.
Well, not to say that you're not going to continue to have many years.
I'm not going to have a year like that
in a little while for a while.
No, I don't feel this way.
No, here's the thing.
You just don't know.
There's no predicting anything.
How do you feel about your year?
This year was really kind of like a limbo year
because I did a lot of stuff in-
2017.
That's when I felt like like yeah a little bit of work
and then it started off the year really exciting with um i was making that show i i had that pilot
yeah that was great thanks thanks man that's script yeah plus thank you uh i was very excited
for it and then it didn't go and then it was it was called the demons of dorian gunn it was a
pilot for pop tv and it starred the beautiful, talented...
Jeffrey Self.
Jeffrey Self.
My God.
Isn't he just the best?
Just the best.
He really is.
I died listening to his episode of the show with you guys.
He was so...
That was so fun.
He is...
Talk about just like a unique presence of the world.
A unique presence of the world who is just like disarmingly grounded, which sounds like
you wouldn't suspect anything otherwise, but it's just like,
you're like taken aback by like what a person he is.
He's a star.
You never forget.
Oh, he's 100% a star.
You never forget.
100%.
And the cast that we had too was like Chrissy Fitt
and Latifah Holder and-
Oh my God.
John Benjamin.
It was awesome.
It was a good show.
Wasn't one Catherine Cohen in a small part?
Catherine Cohen was in it.
As a drunk girl?
As a drunk girl.
I think her official
character name was lady on drugs uh but she was great she was so great the script was really fun
oh thanks that's great yeah we had a good time we had a good time writing and we wrote a couple
more and then uh they were like nope but uh that's okay and then so i think like this year was sort
of like after that then i had like i i did some uh fun stuff over the summer and then so i think like this year was sort of like after that then i had like i i did some fun stuff over the summer and then but then it sort of was like a quieter year quieter year yeah
that was how i'm reflecting only thinking about that because it is the new year right now and
then you do that little personal reflection yeah there is a great year i mean bowen has the year
the year i think over the i think the like we just talked about this the the second half of
the year for you was like wow second half was was fun but i'm also in this place now where i'm like
huh i don't have anything that like has my name on it just mine that like i can put out there
that i haven't that i've done in a while i think that will like i think i will i know part of it
yeah i know i think yeah it's really even just like literally doing a live show that's like
your thing me on a stage i don't know and it's really even just like literally doing a live show that's like your
thing me on a stage i don't know and it's not that's not like that's just something that like
i'm craving that i haven't put out in a while yeah just and i am excited to potentially work
on something it certainly felt good to like feel like so cool just to see you on stage well just
to feel like you put all your energy and personality into one little thing and be like
wow like and also like god i filmed it i almost did it oh my god but like i was like i can't
believe what an idiot i was like i got the guy like i want to smack you so i thank god you did
i would be like punching you right now i'm a violent man i felt like an idiot because i was
like wait i did this four times and
i'm not gonna film it like am i insane like insane and that was my mistake last year i think i did i
didn't film it and i was that's why this year like i'm happy with the way i went this year
but like i'm thinking for i would kind of want to like go around with it and do it or do the show
around let's do the show around i feel like you could just i mean like you could just take over
radio and do it let's take over radio take over radio that's a fun heist little the rock cats will just
take a break that night exactly i wish that's what widows was about it was just although i hear in
widows that it's i haven't seen it but i hear it's like that they do the heist that it like builds up
to this heist and then it's like and then you cut to like we're about to do the heist and it cuts
and they leave and they're like okay we just did the high no what widows is really good yeah it actually
like i'm saying that's fine i i hear it builds in a funny way and then it like sort of oh for
the payoff for the payoff of it like they just like you don't even see the heist happen which
i think is great no you do yeah okay never mind then i'm working with false whoever told you this is a fool you're right

never like this never like this great phenomenal actor she has a scene with viola which is like
really good which is the scene where they slap each other yeah viola slaps this woman across
the face because she like fucked up and then elizabeth who's like this younger woman slaps
her right back and says i'm done with people hurting me i'm done with what i'm done letting
people treat me like that i was like on my couch and I went like this.
You can't see it at home, but Matt described her bowing.
I just went like this.
Oh.
What did he just do?
So he just de-craned his neck.
He retreated it.
It was enough to say, okay, bitch.
Hey, bitch. Sticking to good habits is simple because the guiding features are like a built-in support system for better brushing in Quip.
I love Quip so much.
I've had one for the better part of a year now.
And I tell this kind of story every single time I talk about Quip.
My dental hygienist used to, like, neg and bully me every time I would get a cleaning.
She'd scrape off my plaque and she'd be like, wow, this is an appetizer for your dinner tonight.
Ha ha.
I'd be like, cool it.
No more of this guff.

On Thanksgiving Day, 1999,
a five-year-old boy floated alone in the ocean.
He had lost his mother trying to reach Florida from Cuba.
He looked like a little angel. I mean, he looked so fresh.
And his name, Elian Gonzalez, will make headlines everywhere.
Elian Gonzalez.
Elian Gonzalez.
Elian.
Elian.
Elian Gonzalez.
At the heart of the story is a young boy and the question of who he belongs with.
His father in Cuba.
Mr. Gonzalez wanted to go home and he wanted to take his son with him.
Or his relatives in Miami.
Imagine that your mother died trying to get you to freedom.
At the heart of it all is still this painful family separation.
Something that as a Cuban, I know all too well. Listen to Chess Peace, the Elian Gonzalez story, as part of the My Cultura
podcast network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
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 Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Trust me, you won't want to miss this one.
But anyway, I love Quip so much. And the reason I've been brushing better is because of Quip. And here's why. There's a built-in two-timer pulse every 30 seconds to remind you
when to switch sides and help you clean your whole mouth evenly. And there's a multi-use cover that
works as a stand, mounts to mirrors, and slides over your bristles to pack and protect your Quip
on the go. Plus, there are no wires or a clunky charger, and it runs for three months on a single
charge. Brush heads are automatically delivered on a dentist recommended schedule every three months for just $5. A friendly reminder when
it's time for a refresh and to stay committed for your oral health or to your oral health or for,
but that was a slip that I want to keep. Andrew, Hot Producer Andrew, I'm telling Hot Producer
Andrew to keep it. Okay, cool. So here's what you're going to do. You're going to go to get

D-I-N-G-D-O-N-G. Ooh, baby, baby. My hygienist's real name is Diane.
Okay, I need to tell you guys why I am unique,
why there is no one else in the world like me, and here's why.
There's no one in the world right now who is reading Amateur by Thomas Page McAbee,
who is playing Kingdom Hearts 3 on the day of release,
who, God, what else, is really stocking up on or is coming off of Whole30 after stocking up on a
bunch of whole fresh foods. I am a very singular person. Do you know what I mean? And so are you
in your own way.

Let's talk some JRPGs,
because we talk about like a bunch of,
a bunch of westernized stuff on this podcast.
I think I need a space
to talk about Eastern culture.
Okay, bye.
I've never seen Brandon like this
in the other two.
Honestly, let's talk about this though.
The other two,
like BSJ and Drew Tarver,
that relationship is something that you don't see on TV
where it's, like, two platonic gay friends.
Gay male friends.
Hey, that's really cool that you said that
because that is the one thing that I,
even though I don't know what their intention was
with that character or whatever,
I remember when I was getting the opportunity to do it,
I was like, I love this.
I love playing just his
friend he's also gay it's it's it you leave it at that i also just love playing drew tarver's
friend because he is he's the best because he really is your friend he really is my friend he
i i always considered him like oh an enemy always yeah i mean like i call him a friend but he's
really enemy he's not a frenemy because it's like
no no we're friends we're friends but you're my enemy remember that night at the comedy central
thing oh my god we had that horrible night where we had no fun with the three of us didn't have
any fun together zero just it was such a joyless evening no oh my god we had the best time we were
at that comedy central it was like i think tarver and I were comics to watch and you had hosted it.
And we all were there at the party and we were just being the dumbest.
There's photos of us in the bathroom with our pants off.
Yes.
Do you remember that?
I do remember that.
There's photos of us lying down in the middle of the party.
Yeah.
And Josh Sharp was there too.
We were in a fucking pile.
Yeah.
We were like in a pile on the ground.
Like who was, first of all, who took that photo yeah yeah it was professional photos it was professional do you
remember oh my god it was that one guy that was there who was like taking professional photos and
he came into the bathroom with us oh right to take those photos so at one point during this
five men went into one bathroom with a camera and came out with some yeah a pile of dumb ass
white gays yeah that's a porn setup with no payoff yeah. A pile of dumbass white gays.
That's a porn setup
with no payoff.
Yeah.
It's true.
There was no payoff that night.
There was literally,
no,
I think I got into a cab
and like was like,
went straight to like
a halal food place
and I was like,

about how i guess that sarah snyder and that chris kelly know what the fuck they're doing

i guess it has to be breaking news right here breaking news maybe the episode is also called
breaking news breaking news chris kelly maybe the episode is also called breaking news breaking news
chris kelly and sarah schneider talented um wait what was i just gonna say oh we were talking with
helena about how like she said the culture that informed her was austin powers oh sure yeah and
i said like what's cool about the other two and i love shows like this where every character every
supporting character no matter big nor small is just all so vivid like wanda sykes is unreal on the show she she says she gets

know are you guys progressive um i'm republican yes i'm more of a um moderate republican i want
to say moderate republican yeah i'm a moderate, talk about what makes you a Republican.
I'll tell you 100%. We know that, Bowen, it's fiscal.
It is very fiscal.
For me, it's very social.
And I just don't think that...
The concept at its core of charity just disgusts me.
And when I look at both parties and I see the Democrats
and I'm like, okay, that's charity.
When I see liberals, I'm like'm like okay stop giving it away yeah it devalues what i've earned right okay i have a macbook i have
a casper yes i have that's yeah that is two great those are two great things and and yeah and my
parents are actually i don't have a casper of I have a Casper ripoff. Oh, well, we love those.
Yeah.
So anyway, I'm a Republican.
You're a Republican.
And for you.
Well, fiscally, you said.
But that's because my parents are a private prison.
Yeah.
Yeah, your parents are.
So, okay.
Can we...
Wait.
The other two.
I just want to keep talking about this
because I feel like that...
I just...
I do really want to talk about you and Drew,
your characters being like two gay pals because i
feel like it it has been explored on tv but i feel like not in this like frivolous way where it's
almost always hooked up in the past yes like it's always a thing it's like even i'm looking it's
like oh yeah jonathan groff and the older guy yeah um they had hooked up right and then i think in
the movie they even talked about hooking
up again sure sure and i was like yeah which i get it's like i so many of my gay friends like
that is like you know no secret like dave and i like in the beginning dated you know what i mean
like a lot i would say like honestly 50 probably of my gay friends like not and it's like it's like
that's just kind of I guess how
a lot of people figure things out
yeah it's also expression too
yeah it's expression
it's about being an artist
it's sort of
fucked up well it's a fucked up
reality like we just accept
we have to accept it yeah but I feel like
it's like we have to accept it but
I feel like I like like having platonic gay relationship has been one of my favorite things that i've ever had
in my entire life i just like reconnected with an old friend that i hadn't seen in a long time but
he was like my best one of my best friends growing up and we like reconnected and we're just fun it
was just it's just been so great to have that and it's like we've never had any of that history or
anything like that but it is great i don't Yeah. And they work together at a restaurant, which is, of course, where gays become friends.
Become friends.
Become friends and gain their socioeconomic power.
Yeah.
I thought for the entire time we were shooting that this was just like a wacky show about
gay waiters.
And apparently it really wasn't.
Oh, my God.
I love the acting class stuff where it feels like Barry for a little bit.
It does.
It's definitely very Barry.
I also love that the characters
not only wait tables together.
Do you think the characters wait tables together
and then they signed up for an acting class together?
You know what?
Actually, that's a great question.
Here's my thought process.
It was that I feel like my character's been
in this acting class for a long time
but quit acting a years ago but just doesn't to like which just doesn't just
doesn't to stay in it because sometimes he gets a good note and that means a lot
to him and then I think he was like Carrie you should come and do this class
and Carrie was like okay I'm sure there's actually lines that describe how they got into it.
And I just didn't read that part.
Again, skip the dramaturgical work.
Exactly.
Yeah, because I don't even see a character name.
I just see lines in a script
and I was like, okay, I'll say that.
And the number of times I've auditioned for things
and they've been like, that's the other part.
And I'm like, no, no, no.
The character would say that.
Wait, really?
Yeah.
And so what I also like to do,
here's another thing
i also don't learn my lines yeah i always said this i've always said this i said don't learn
your lines because if the other if you are doing your job you will get the other person to say
their line you know what i'm saying if you want me if the lines fuck you i can say fuck you to
anybody yeah but you get me to say fuck you and so i'm not gonna learn the line all right it's
like gravid Water.
I get it.
Every scene should be Gravid Water.
This is great because I'm going out for pilot season and I need this advice.
You're going to be in L.A. right?
I'm going to be in L.A.
Yay, I'll see you there.
I'll see you there.
Everyone's going.
To L.A.
Yeah, everyone.
Everyone.
You'll have to stay here with your amazing job.
Shut up. BSJ, this is a great segue into uh isn't it romantic bsj
loves his question titles in his movies can y'all forgive me famously a question isn't it romantic
famously a question the other two bsj was really on top of all his being off book.
You guys kissed.
We kissed.
We do kiss in this movie.
In this movie.
This is a little bit of a,
I don't know if this is a spoiler for the film.
I don't think it is.
I don't think it's a spoiler.
You guys kissed in the film.
We kissed in the film.
On camera in front of many crew.
In front of many crew.
In front of many crew.
In front of rebelness.
How many times did you kiss?
Okay, it wasn't more than 10.
It wasn't more than 10.
We did like seven takes total.
We did like, yeah, we did seven takes total,
and three of which we kissed twice.
So then four and then six.
Was Rebel commenting on how hot it was?
Yeah.
Well, every time we kissed, she'd be like,
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah oh yeah the guy i love it no i can't no i am i cold it's the are you in touch with her you you guys are
friends we're friends we're friendly what is she even up to now she i think everything is she just
like didn't she just like do cats the musical oh, the movie? Oh, wow. She's in the movie?
With Jennifer Hudson.
With Jennifer Hudson.
And Taylor Swift.
As I know her, Taylor Swift.
Okay.
Matt, this is how much Matt loves saying Taylor Swift.
He, back when we were in a sketch group together,
he brought in a sketch where the entire game was just his character saying,
I love Taylor Swift.
And then everyone else in the sketch straight manning and being like,
no, Matt, it's Taylor Swift.
And then you find out that he just mispronounces everything.
It was so bad.
It's not even like a hack is good it wasn't even like
a hacky like it wasn't even a hacky outward
it's like oh he has he's having a stroke it was like
oh he's just an idiot
I was really excited about that
I was really excited
about the premise and actually
even recently I tried to do something
with Taylor Swift like
something comedic like
do and soon i talked about this oh i tweeted it i was like taylor swift and then it did like fine
wait that wasn't something you tried with no i was like i was like i was like what did i say
i said what i i tweeted out when on christmas i give a gif my favorite shopping is thrift and my singer is
taylor swift and i was like this is my first tweet of this month and it did good oh nice that's good
good you know what i think that's good i just think it's so funny from you imagine this imagine
this situation you see her on the red carpet and it's like nancy odell and she's like today we're here we're taylor
swift and she's like taylor's just like what um we love the new album tell us about this new swift
sound it's it's and nancy odell's already run afoul of taylor on the red carpet in the past
oh iconically and so now it's just like, Nancy can't get
it right with Taylor. Nancy can't get it right with Taylor.
Which is the title of the sketch.
Nancy can't get it right with Taylor.
You wrote a whole sketch
about Taylor Swift
and I truly
can't believe it. I still think about
that today. So was there like a moment that you bring it in
and there's like a read through? Yeah.
Did it get to its feet? I think it was the first thing i presented that day i was
like i'm excited about this one and we were all like and then we all gave notes didn't make it
into the show and then sudi and i gave notes we were like okay so um like this i feel we feel like
you can activate the heightens a little bit more we were like what do you do blah blah it's fine
one time sudi and I wrote...
Have we talked about this ever?
No.
One time, Sudi and I brought in a sketch to Popperlette.
Oh, was it good?
Okay, so...
So this is a bit of a dicey story.
Basically, what happened was someone...
We're going to tell it.
We're going to tell it.
Someone in the sketch group was very late to rehearsal.
This was often a thing that happened.
Like, someone would be late.
And it was like often a thing with Popperlette often the same person or just somebody would always be well this one person wasn't not
late all the time but you know it was it was like they were 25 minutes late and we needed to rehearse
so i get a text that the person is downstairs having a really hard time getting into the
building tish and so i go downstairs and like it's like a scene it's like the guy the security
guard at the front is like really not letting her through
because like she had like an out of date.
Um,
ID.
I NYU ID.
So I had to sign her in.
And as we're going,
getting in the elevator,
she turns to me and she goes,
that was the most reverse racist thing I've ever.
So then I was like,
uh,
and then she repeats
that line
when she comes into the room
and Sudi and I
are just sitting there like
oh my god
I'm sorry what
and she was like
it was reverse racist
and she kept saying
reverse racist
and like
I guess
it's sort of forgivable
this was back in like
it was a long time ago
2013
where that vocabulary
was just starting
to be shaped around it
like whatever but like
at the time Sudi and I were
like oh
okay so the way that they decided
to like wow
tackle this was not
by saying in the moment hey
this is not acceptable language
they brought in a musical
sketch to the
next rehearsal which was called reverse racism
which was real it's not about how it's not real and they were just yelling and it really wasn't
that funny it was kind of just like bully well it was kind of just like yelling at this girl
for doing it and so we all literally i remember we all read it and then it was just like we were
like yeah it's good i remember i gave notes and I was like I just think you know probably
there could be more jokes it seems like you guys
wrote this with more of an agenda and
probably there could be more jokes there's no jokes
so then we literally and this girl
was there and she was like yeah I liked
it and then like two
two sketches go by and she goes
wait guys
I actually don't feel comfortable with that
and there was this silence and I looked at you guys and I was like't feel comfortable with that. And there was this silence.
And I looked at you guys and I was like, I mean, I think you probably owe her an apology.
And I remember Sudi rolled her eyes so hard and was like, I'm sorry.
But and then we got into the conversation, which we should have just had in the beginning.
To write an entire song.
Poe and Sudi are bullies and vicious. I mean, that's the most. It's Carly Simon level. to write an entire song so passive aggressive
and vicious
that's the most
that's Carly Simon level
it's so
it's
no one was right
in that situation
no
there was
there were no good guys
like a bad decision
bad decisions
yes
but also like
once we talked about it
it was fine
but it was
Trump was right
there were no good guys
there were no good guys
there were no good guys
but that was that was a moment oh my god oh wow wait a minute i just have
to mention that the the day that we shot our stuff um for isn't it romantic was the day it was right
after charlottesville and it was like the country was going insane oh do you remember this uh it was
late august it was late late august 2017 and whatever i mean yeah
bringing down the mood so hard but like that was the day of there were there were um many people on
on both sides like that was the day oh that was yeah i was i was reading all this all these tweets
and reading all these articles locked into a closet of a trailer just being like the country's
ending like like this country is that was a particularly
bad that but that was like a dark day anyway but then i had to go but then i had to go kiss brandon
had to like what day does it come out isn't it romantically february 14th oh valentine's day
yeah i think it's february 13th so it'll be the valentine's day movie yes absolutely yes exactly
famously that spot used to be taken by 50 shades movies and now
there's a there's a vacuum and i think isn't a romantic is gonna take the crown home can i ask
if is there any sexy scenes in the movie with liam uh i know we see it's a whole bit i mean
that's like the whole thing it's like it's a fun sketch in that like she's living in this world
she wakes up in a world that is that has that is governed by the rules of a rom-com.
And so anytime there is a sex scene,
it cuts to the next day.
So it's sort of funny.
That's like a little spoiler.
So she never gets it in with Liam.
You don't want to spoil it.
I don't want to spoil anything.
It's very fun.
You guys just did a film
with two actors
who are now married to humongous pop stars.
Oh, Priyanka and Liam.
Yeah.
Oh, right.
Yeah.
I know.
I sent Priyanka an Applebee's gift card for her wedding.
Did you really?
No.
You should have.
That would have been so fucking funny.
I know.
She would love it.
I think I texted Betty Gilpin.
I was like, you want to go in on this?
She did not respond.
But that would have been so funny.
So funny.
Yeah.
To send her just 25 bucks to Applebee's.
Love that.
Oh my gosh.
Half off apps every night after 10.
Exactly.
After 10, honestly, get the chocolate molten lava cake.
It is to die for and perfect for two.
Wow.
Yeah.
Pri and Nick.
Back in the day, I used to fucking kill it at Applebee's after 10 p.m.
Oh, sure.
Yeah.
Spinach dip.
Spinach dip.
Applebee's is a good little moment.
Yeah.
When you're at an Applebee's, you're there for a reason.
You're there for a reason.
Do you have a favorite chain?
I was gonna say
I'm a Chili's queen
Chili's is really good too
I love Chili's
yeah I like Chili's
Cajun chicken pasta
classic
yeah
I'm a TGA Fridays girl
yeah are you really
you like that Jack Daniels
I love that
the barbecue
I think they have the best wings
and kind of
you like the decorations
for me it's like
for me it's like
the wings define the place
like if the I wanna go where the best wings are
yeah if the wings are good
then the quality trickles down into the rest
of the menu I would I would because they took the
okay I see that they took care of
their keystone species
right and so everything else in the food
chain literally makes sense and I feel
it's like well at least the wings were good
yeah what I mean like if something comes out and it
was like oh this cheese this on my Monterey Jack
isn't melted all the way.
You know what I mean?
Like it's like you're still out of chain, but at least the wings were good.
At least the wings were good is a good, like I feel like you hear that, like you're in
the car with your family driving away from the TGI Fridays or your friends and it's silent
for a little bit because maybe the car is still cold and you finally like pull out of
the parking lot and then you you're on the road,
and then finally somebody breaks the silence.
Well, at least the wings were good.
The wings were good.
And then everyone cacophonously is like,
yeah, yeah, yeah, they were great.
They were great.
Oh, my God.
Put them that Taylor Swift song.
I wanna be your end game.
Taylor Swift.
Wanna be your first thing.
Did you guys happen to,
I know you've seen at least
a little bit of it because we watched it
but you didn't see I've almost
clicked on it but then I've what we're talking
about is the reputation world
stadium stadium stadium
who is it great I love
it yeah did you see it live did you see it
my friend Rob and I went and
it was really fun like it was it was
like that moment she had like the guests
she had Camila Cabello
and Charlie XCX
and there was no guest at the one
I was at but Troye Sivan was at
one day which would have been really cool
oh man she
I love him
Leland the guy who co-writes a lot of his
songs wrote for the other two
yeah isn't that wild
that's so funny we're trying to get him on the pod
oh my gosh what an awesome
what a cool talent
speaking of talent
speaking of talent
speaking of talent
I have one more wings question for you guys
okay boneless or bone
oh I thought you said Bowen
oh yeah yeah me too boneless wings or bowen yang i know i know boneless is like i know boneless is like so juvenile
um and if i'm in a wing then that's like so fun but i feel like i gotta go boneless but that makes
me a child i know i don't know i think it's like fine to just like to be eating all of it.
You know what I mean?
Like the thing about the wings is convenient to just pop it in your mouth.
Yeah.
And also,
you know,
I feel like you can dip more.
And like the thing about wings with the bone is when you dip in the sauce,
like oftentimes,
like the sauce will get mostly on like the bone part or you know what i
mean and also it really drives me crazy when people eat wings and they don't eat everything
you're dipping the bone into the sauce no i'm just saying that because the way that you hold
the wing with your hand and you dip it into the sauce no part of the bone is being exposed to
the sauce i don't know what you're talking about well i'm just saying that oftentimes like just
the shape of the wing like when you dip it into the wing sauce or whatever you're dipping it into
like i feel that the blue cheese or the ranch the blue cheese what do you feel it gets on the top
of the wing and that's not the edible good part are you talking about a drumstick though you're
not talking about a drumstick you're not talking and the thighs are even harder the flats yeah yeah
the flats the wings or whatever they are i just think, you know, it's really a lot going on. There is.
There's really a lot going on. But I pick Bowen Yang.
Okay, yeah. Honestly, boneless
wings or Bowen Yang? Bowen Yang.
Between boneless wings and Bowen Yang,
I do pick Bowen. Yeah, I do pick Bowen too.
To dip.
To dip. Just to have.
Yeah, just to have. Just to have on my plate.
To have to hold. Like, to have to hold.
But that's crazy because if we literally had a nationwide vote right now.
Wings would win.
Wings would win, I think, because most people are very well known.
But out of everyone in the country, most people don't know you.
They know wings.
They know wings.
So that's a really scary thought, though.
That's where we are at Trump's America.
People would pick wings over a human being.
We have to remember.
Hey, HPA, can we just make a note?
On the day that this releases, text me to make sure that I do an Instagram story poll.
Bow and yang or boneless.
Or boneless wings.
Thank you.
Thank you, Andrew.
And I'm really scared of the results.
I know.
You don't actually have to do this.
I'm so sorry.
No, you do.
You do.
Okay, great.
Do you do?
I mean, does that upset the median of what what it is like if you're like the the the if you're the person
posting it and you are bowen you're right so then i'll post it text me hpa text me make sure that i
know on the day of release to put up a instagram story which is boneless wings or bow and yang yes yes boneless wings

Because they're people
After the ride, go to the gift shop

I go to the gift shop
And I'm the kind of person who really keeps his arms and legs inside the ride
I'm the kind of person who really keeps his arms and legs inside the ride. I'm the kind of person who would never
touch
an animatronic, which there will be
many. And I'm the kind of person who's telling you right
now, if you have heart, back, neck,
or problems with a sensitivity to
strobe lighting,
or you're a Scientologist, you can't get me on this ride!
I have a question for you. On this ride,
are the animatronics, are they actual
moving animatronics, or is it just, like, frozen? Is it, like, Seven Dwar ride, are the animatronics, are they actual moving animatronics or is it just like frozen?
No.
Is it like Seven Dwarves
where it's like the screen
is being projected onto their face?
Like, do you know what I mean?
Like how into the mansion?
Of course I do.
My animatronics in my park
will be state of the art.
Like Westworld?
Yes.
You'll be able to fuck.
But right now,
but right now with the-
You'll be able to fucking kill
everything in my park.
Fuck and kill. But what that, state of the art animatronics right now but right now with the you'll be able to fucking kill everything in my park fuck and kill but what that state-of-the-art animatronics right now means something different john travolta that's fine oh miscavige miscavige yeah i think david i think i yeah yeah i think i
think travolta might be turning a court running a corner right now what after them after the 30
years he's not wearing a toupee anymore really really do you see his instagram he's like fully bald and like has like looks like stone cold steve austin like looks kind
of good okay i think he might be like he might be going opposite of clear i i know this is cloudy
cloudy this this is what i had to say he's going cloudy this is what I had to say. State-of-the-art animatronics now
in industry parlance means
Elsa
moving around, but her face is just
an LED screen that's flashing
a digital emotion.
I feel that we don't
necessarily have to go that route with
my John Travolta audio animatronics.
Of course, there's going to be a Tom Cruise audio
animatronic. And of course, in every scene be a Tom Cruise audio animatronic. Yes.
And of course, in every scene, there's a Leah animatronic being like,
come on, we got to go this way.
Hurry up.
What the fuck?
Let's go.
Jennifer's not going to wait.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you never see Jennifer in the ride, but it's understood.
And she's a voiceover who's driving the car.
What's Kevin James' show, the current show?
Kevin Can Wait.
Kevin Can Wait.
Come on.
I think it got canceled. Come on, Kevin Can Wait Kevin Can Wait come on I think it got cancelled
come on
Kevin Can Wait
but we can't
it's so funny
that she just
they just kicked out
the female Leah
and then she came in
like that is
my Leah Remini obsession
it's hilarious
yeah
hilarious
and cruel
and like
Leah's cruel
Leah's fucking
cold blooded
I don't think that
Leah's not crazy
there you go i mean
yeah i mean like at the end but for the purposes of the ride it's important that we're on her side
yeah no i think so too i mean so wait but so just to be clear about what this ride is
leah keeps popping up throughout the ride so she's running alongside the car yeah yeah yeah
so j-lo is driving the car because she has the fastest cars.
J-Lo has the fastest cars.
J-Lo has the fastest cars in all of Hollywood,
and that's the justification for why you get in a J-Lo car.
Will Lea say that?
Will she be like, as you all know?
Yeah, like, you got to go with my best friend's car,
Jennifer Lopez.
She has the fastest cars in all of Hollywood.
I swear to God.
All right, I'm the kind of person who's going to hook you up, put on seatbelts on or off we can't even go and then you get in you
get in the car and then you turn the corner and it's like it's like very like for those of you
that have been to theme parks like it's very spider-man it's very transformers like where
there's screens and there's like this is the narrative you're wearing 3d glasses that which
are to protect you from um sparkles no from when they come to probe you not
what in scientology they uh what do they do they they remove the electrodes the electrodes
the thetans are coming and it's the glasses are your anti-theaton goggles oh i love that yeah
here's what i think it is it starts in new york it starts in the center in new york yeah yeah
and and like the one in times. Well, the line is literally.
It's redesigned to look like the Scientology Center in New York.
But then it ends.
It ends.
It's in mini Times Square of Matt Rogers land.
You drive in Draylo's car all the way to LA.
Yeah.
And then you do the media.
You do the media center that's on Sunset, I think.
Yeah.
And there's a drop sequence in the media center.
Oh, really?
And then the media center goes into the blue building. And then blue building goes into the media center. Oh, really? It goes into the blue building,
and then blue building goes into the celebrity center,
and then it ends at UCB.
It ends at UCB.
But it never goes to Clearwater, Florida.
No, no, no.
No, Florida's not a big sequel.
The gift shop has all UCB paraphernalia.
The gift shop has all, like,
don't think sweatshirts and, like, all that shit.
Love that.
Wow.
Yeah. And just CISO merch. has all like don't think sweatshirts and like all that shit love that wow yeah and just see so much

bitch. Yes, I am Nigella Lawson. My father was the chancellor of the Exchequer. That is the fantasy, honey.
And one of my favorite, favorite meal delivery services that I like to use in helping that fantasy is Green Chef.
Green Chef is a USDA certified organic company that makes eating well easy and affordable with plans to fit every kind of lifestyle.
Was that a long walk to that?
I don't think it was.
Just listen up.
I love Green think it was. Just listen up.
I love Green Chef so much.
Green Chef lets you choose from a wide array of easy-to-follow lifestyles
with select organic ingredients.
So many plans like paleo, vegan, vegetarian,
pescatarian, Mediterranean, heart smart,
lean and clean, keto, gluten-free,
and omnivore are all included.
It's truly probably one of the most
inclusive meal delivery services out there.
There's something for everyone. With Green Chef, it's easy to eat well and discover new recipes
every week that you'll love to cook. And you can switch up your meal plan whenever you're ready to
try a new way to eat. It's convenient and easy. Green Chef makes achieving your 2019 goals so
simple with dinner options that work around your lifestyle, not the other way around.
So if you want to be the Whole30 Nigella Lawson that I am currently experiencing and embodying right now, I need you to go to greenchef.us forward slash ding dong.
Because I just made the sesame chicken stir fry last night. It was Whole30 friendly,
paleo technically, but so, so delicious, so easy. It came together in 25 minutes.
I had all my ingredients out. It's very, you know, mise en place. Is that what it is? When like it's the French way of cooking where you just lay out all your ingredients beforehand
so that all the prep is out. Oh my goodness. it was so heavenly. I love Green Chef so much.
So again, that's greenchef.us forward slash ding dong.
Greenchef.us forward slash ding dong
for $50 off your first box of Green Chef.
$50 off your first box of Green Chef.
And then you can DM me
and then we'll both chat about
how we're both being Nigella Lawsons
and that our father is a former chancellor of the exchequer which in the uk is the equivalent of like um like the
like the economic head right yeah okay uk people just let me know if i if i got any of that wrong
but go to greenchef.us forward slash ding dong. It's crazy.
I love that.
I think,
well,
and to be honest with you,
one of like the lands in Matt Rogers land,
the theme park is Times Square.
So like,
you know that,
and of course,
like we have,
there's a Sbarro,
there's a seven minute frozen musical where they just,
it's just Elsie doing let it go.
Yeah.
And there's of course a Spar go. Yeah. And, um,
there's of course a Sparrow.
Yeah.
Um,
and there's like,
maybe there's like a big screen where it has like,
you can get your picture up on there.
You can,
you can do the ride.
You can do,
you can do the ride.
You can do the actual,
the actual,
the ride.
You get on it,
you get on the ride.
Um,
and it goes on a wacky journey through,
through time square,
quote unquote.
And then the other lands are, I have to really think about this,
but I think there's a big little Long Island.
There's Long Island.
Oh my God.
The lands are Times Square, Big Little Lies, Long Island, and Disney World.
And we just have Splash Mountain.
I love that.
Matt Rogers theme park.
And I'm like the Mickey Mouse of it.
And you're very much like the Donald Duck.
Fucking rude.
No, it's not rude at all.
You hate wearing pants.
I do.
Let's make a land for BSJ.
No.
I don't need a land.
Just like a fun restaurant that people don't hate.
It's tennis themed.
It's a tennis themed restaurant. I'm a lot of i would love here's i'm just gonna pitch some
things that i like i don't know if this is gonna fit into your world okay i in brandon's like
tennis themed restaurant yeah a lot of bread bowls i like a bread bowl they it's called it's
called brandon's tennis and bread bowls and and the waiters are all um andy roddick are the animatronics as well
they're no well yes in that like they are west you order and fuck them you order on ipads they
come over yeah andy comes up yeah and they always say hey i'm i'm uh andy roddick yeah did you call
for me and then you say no i no, no, I wanted my food.
Where,
where are my fries?
Where am I?
Where's my bread?
Where's my bread bowl?
I'm so sorry.
It's Brandon's tennis and bread bowl.
And of course it's like every screen is showing whatever tennis match.
Yes,
exactly.
Um,
and what's a bread bowl?
Actually just like,
maybe just like videos of me hitting tennis,
which is just a slightly out of shape man who's like just sweating
way too hard.
Just like an audience.
And it's,
of course,
it's all on a tennis court.
Oh yeah.
If it's all bread bowls.
And it's outside.
And it's outside.
If it's all bread bowls,
that means it's all soup?
No.
It could be a dip.
It could be a dip.
There could be dips
in the bread bowls.
I think so.
And I think sometimes
even like,
if you just want it,
there's maybe like
a create your own where you can just put like a pile of cheese wait i now i feel sad that you i
think that bowen needs to have a rock a big ride in my park yeah i think i think you actually have
the biggest roller coaster there wow i think it you have it's called 2018 it's called 2018
and it starts out where we just,
we literally,
it's like a slow crawl up 500 feet and then a plummet straight down.
Oh my God.
And then the rest of it,
all of a sudden,
like,
it's like,
you think it's over at one point,
but then it's like launched and like.
Yeah.
You know what it is?
This is it.
What is it?
Oh, yeah.
This is like the entire female cast of SNL
dancing along the ride.
This is it.
No, this is the ride.
You ready? It's like Duel the ride. This is it. No, this is the ride. You ready?
It's like Dueling Dragons.
Yes.
Where it's parallel,
colonier rollercoaster at first.
They're together.
They're together.
They split up.
It's like a crazy journey.
It's called Kultwar.
It's called Kultwar.
They split up,
and then they end up back together
because the friendship outlasts everything.
Prevails.
Prevails.
It's called the Matt and Bowen rollercoaster experience.
That's great.
Matt and Bowen the ride. Colon Kultwar. bowen the ride colon culture that's good i love that and what land is this in it's in long island wait just so i know is there anything else in long island like what else yeah yeah yeah
okay there's fire there's a fire island oh there's a fire island it's an accurate replica it's called the fire island
experience and you go and it's an underwear party there's an underwear party where people
are fucking each other yes yes yes and and that's the weird part is like you don't know who's real
and who's not because it's like animatronics is it sort of like the pleasure island of and that's
very west world too yeah yes yeah i love that i like that too it's gonna be really cool and i'm
i'm not not necessarily
ready to announce more parks opening but
we're definitely
definitely interested in making this a resort but
there is a margarita
there's a margarita and there's a kelly clarkson
land that's opening up in 2022
all i'm saying is we're in talks with kelly
about opening up potentially
maybe a theme park kelly Kelly Clarkson related theme park.
Yes.
With a Because of You flume.
You get to go behind those hazel eyes.
And there's a haunted house called Behind Those Hazel Eyes.
Yes.
And it's really just like a very scary ride.
And everything's, yeah.
You have Splash Mountain and Because of You Flume.
In a different park, though.
That's too many flume rides.
No, because the Because of You Flume is actually really sad
and deals with divorce.
And Splash Mountain is more themes of like Zippity-Doo-Dah
and all that stuff.
Yeah, you and Kelly have both gone through divorce.
I know, I don't need to have gone through the divorce
to understand that it was hard.
Neither does Kelly.
Kelly's parents went through a divorce. Oh oh so that's what because of you is about
and me as a fan and the architect of the theme park she did such a good job you felt it you
don't need to have to experience exactly there's a delirium look in your eyes that is just no i'm
so excited about this this is my favorite thing to talk about i love this so much i think matt
will get a theme park by the end of his life.
Here's what I think.
If Dolly Parton can have one, I gotta have one.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
You gotta.
You have to have one.
Oh, my HPM is here.
Hi, Matt.
I love that.
I love that, too.
I love that for me.
I love that for you.
I love that, honestly, though, for me.
You know what?
When I was little, what were your dream jobs when you were little?
What did you want to do?
Before comedy or acting was even a thing, and i would imagine that for a lot of us like we
grew up like watching the oscars and we've talked about this like but what was the job that you
wanted i was really into drawing as a kid it was either gonna be astronaut lol just like mask drag
but then also um is it i guess no no i'm not challenging you i've just i've never thought of
it that way well for me like it felt like
very a thing to fall in line and say
yeah I'm gonna be an astronaut
yeah like one of those things one of those stock answers
you can take cover behind it as like a
nerdy effeminate kid
it's a boy answer totally and then
so it was that but then it was also like I was
I was like
drawing shit into like photo albums
and like making these like stories up so I was like but then like drawing shit into like photo albums and like making these like
stories up so I was like but but then like it sort of translated where it was like this creative
instinct to like make something that was me I always weirdly wanted to be and I don't think
I understood what this was but I was like I want to be a psychologist oh wow like I think I like
the idea of like um talking to people about their problems which i think just i was just like a
gossip yeah but then but then our future podcast right when i got really really obsessed with
roller coaster tycoon i really wanted to design roller coasters i really wanted but i think what
i really wanted to do was be the person who created the stories for the rides and like did
all the fun stuff like said and there'll be fire here and here there should be water and here there
should be wind.
But which is not a thing.
You didn't want to actually be the Imagineer.
You wanted to be the person
telling them what to do.
Well, because then I found out
what the Imagineers really are
and they're scientists.
They're scientists.
They're essentially
genius engineers.
RJ.
RJ at Epcot.
Our pal.
You have an Imagineer friend.
We have a friend.
We have a friend who listened to the pod.
Last time he went, last year, hooked us up with some great fast passes.
It was so sweet.
He's an Imagineer.
It's crazy.
It's pretty cool.
Yeah.
They have a podcast.
Yeah.
Where they talk about Disney and stuff.
And I'm coming back.
I'm going to do the Walt Disney Marathon.
Yes.
In November.
I'm very excited about
this it'll be fun yeah that's so and it's through the parks i believe that would be like such a
missed opportunity if it wasn't sure yeah i mean i'm sure it has to be yeah what about you i think
i wanted to own like a restaurant or something i think that's yeah it is stressful yeah i think
it was that i children's book author like i wanted to do that I was into drawing comic book artist and then
and then
other
yeah I guess
that's what it was
yeah those were probably
probably the main ones
for me
nothing too exciting
but the thing is
actually I wanted
like at one point
I wanted to like
I just wanted to be
a businessman
I had like my dad's
briefcase and like
I just used to walk
around the house
with it and put my
papers in there and I had papers.
I don't know.
Yeah.
That's just a kink.
That's just like a.
That's a kink.
What you were experiencing was you had a kink.
You had a kink.
You wanted to fuck men.
You had a white collar kink.
Is that what it was?
Yeah.
You wanted to fuck men.
And that's a kink.
When you want to fuck guys.
That's a kink.
That's a fucking kink.
It's actually rule of culture number 90.
When you want to fuck guys.
That's a kink.
No matter what gender you are. If you want to fuck a man man you're a kinky one um someone did ask me this though last
night they were like like what would you do if comedy didn't work out and i was like and i had
that lame answer where i was where and they said they say this in mazel too i was like i couldn't
do anything else yeah i have no other skills like that's what it was i was like i don't think i have
the skills well you literally have other skills but like not what it was. I was like, I don't think I have the skills to do that. Well, you literally have other skills. But like not,
not something.
You had another career.
Not something that I could
like sustain
or that I could have
the interest to invest in.
To sustain your own happiness.
Yes, exactly.
Like not enough fuel
to kind of wake up
every morning.
And feel satisfied.
It's like Glenn said
at the Golden Globes.
We need,
as women,
we need to fulfill
our personal goals. Yes. They're they're yes they're too nurturing well
she said that women just are nurturing she said women are nurturing and that's what expected of
them and like by nature yes they have like it's when you're growing up in a culture that demands
you to be a nurturer and a wife and a mother like those are beautiful things to have um but it's important and crucial that everyone
especially women who have been cultured to do the opposite find their passions and are able to say
this is my passion yeah i should i i can do this and i should be able to do this which i thought
was i love beautiful love fucking love that speech that's great it feels like it could have been word
for word what you just did i've seen it several times yeah i was gonna say there's something
that you kind of like lost it you you went into the body well i became glenn in that moment you
did and you transformed do you want me to do my impression of glenn i do i'm thinking of my mother
who she was in her 80s and she said said, I feel I haven't accomplished anything.
And she very much sublimated herself to my father, and I just thought, that's so not right.
And, you know, as women, we are nurturers.
That's what's expected of us, and we have our husbands and our children, and that's beautiful.
But we have to be able to fulfill our personal goals.
We have to be able to say, I can do have to be able to say i can do that and i should
be allowed to do that wow
her singing the national oh boy that's a mets game yeah oh it's great it was a fabulous speech
fabulous speech and one that was yes a lot of people need to hear. Yeah.
Watching you slip into that,
Matt was honestly like impressive.
And so when you say you don't have any other skills,
Glenn close,
Glenn close impersonator impersonator at my theme park,
I actually go around doing Glenn close.
It's actually a meet and greet.
It's a meet and greet with quote unquote,
Glenn close.
And it's just you
dressed normal
doing lines
that I sort of
remember her saying
it's like
in Dollywood
when Dolly Parton
will do the parade
she'll be in a car
she'll wave at people
and that's it
your thing is
you're dressed in plain clothes
doing Glenn
being called Glenn Close
and it's so crazy
the amount of kids
that want a picture with me.
They all clamor for me as Glenn.
They love, quote unquote,
Glenn Close.
They love Glenn Close.
My wife and kids come here
because we love the rides,
but we love Glenn Close.
We love Glenn.
We love to see Glenn.
We just came here in August, but we said, for Christmas, we said, what do you want to
do?
You want a video game or whatever the fuck?
He said he wanted to see Glenn.
So here we are back.
It's true.
It's true.
Our baby said he wants to see Glenn.
And we give him what he wants.
It's real cheap to come here.
It's very cheap to come here.
It's honestly, it's one of the most interesting things, because I'll tell you one other thing
real quick, is that you never know what Glenn's gonna say.
I want her to do as if we never
said goodbye. I know, I know.
I know you do, but we not sure
what he's, what
she is going to do.
I want her to fall in the manure like she did
in 101 Dalmatians.
And you're gonna get that, baby. We love you.
And if they don't, I will
write a letter. Doesn't she yell manure?
Something.
Is that what she falls into?
That brown shit?
It's not actually.
Somebody.
Oh, you know what that comes from?
It's when Biff in Back to the Future Part 2.
Back to the Future.
The manure comes on.
And he goes, manure!
That's beautiful.
That was my Biff impression.
That was.
Matt is giving us a full resume.
Oh my God.
You are a man of.
I think I did too much growl. That was. Matt is giving us a full resume. Oh my God. You are a man of.
I think I did too much growl, but.
I was going to say I did too much blank insert drug.
Yeah.
I think I did too much Coke with us.
I was like, great.
I think it's time.
I did have my first Coke experience.
Ever?
I did Coke on New Year's Eve.
Okay.
How did you think?
Should I not talk about it?
You can talk about it.
Did you?
I did the tiniest bit of coke I will never touch it
it did nothing for me
really
and I wouldn't recommend
anyone doing it
yeah
it's
I don't know
it's not
I don't
I don't
I'm not
cut this out
they don't need to know
that I did coke
okay
you can do it
I talked about meth

You're right.
Stop it.
I'm constantly doing cocaine.
Constantly.
I love cocaine.
Cocaine is my favorite.
Cocaina.
Cocaina.
Cocaina.
I felt my most powerful
when I kicked someone
out of my room. Yeah. When I kicked, most powerful when I kicked someone out of my room.
Yeah.
When I kicked,
at a party I threw
for Jolkin Booster,
I kicked someone
out of my room
because they locked
themselves in there
because they were doing
cocaine in my room.
That's too much.
And then I go.
Somebody was locked
in your own bedroom.
Yep.
Doing cocaine.
And I banged the door.
Finally,
this person opened the door.
He's like,
just fucking dumbass face
just being like,
sorry.
And I was like, this is my room.
I was like, hi, don't do that ever again.
That was bad.
I just in front of everybody.
I was like, I didn't yell.
No, it's okay.
I was just like, but like the room fell silent.
Like everyone heard me say, hi, please don't ever fucking do that.
I remember that.
And I felt powerful.
No, I remember.
I remember I wasn't at that joke and booster birthday party party but i remember hearing about oh you take your space in that moment had
to you yeah that's good way to advocate for yourself had to that's what 2019 is all about
is advocating for yourself being your own lawyer being your own be your own lawyer your own lawyer
represent yourself in court i saw this actually real culture number 102 be your own lawyer represent yourself

heroin i feel like meth there's no going back no no no no no the world math i did once and i was
like i've never done that again i did it by accident one time this is such i'm i'm learning
i'm the community i'm learning that i was 19 i was 19 sure but i'm learning that this is like
a commonplace thing where people get tricked into doing it. And that's unacceptable.
It's not good.
I didn't like it.
I mean, I loved it.
I had to work at the Gap the next day.
And I was like, they saw me.
I walked in.
They were like, okay, you're working in the dressing rooms.

Oh man, my dream as a teenager
was working under that umbrella
of either the Gap or Old Navy
or Banana Republic.
I was like, any of those will do.
Yeah, that is the luxury of the Western world, though,
to say that.
My dream as a child was to work for Gap.
Disgusting.
Okay.
Here we go.
Sorry, I've been-

brought this okay you brought this fucking fire you brought this you're right i brought this
snake like energy fucking can't look bowen's over here trying to be a fucking diplomat being fucking nice
i don't think so honey is our one minute segment that has taken the world by storm
and we will be touring this country this great country with the show and what cities will be will we be going to portland seattle san francisco vancouver boston boston philly dc houston dallas
and austin from somebody who has uh ocd i love the clustering of those cities i think that is
a well thought out group well a lot of people are angry because we're not going to chicago
or atlanta or denver and those are just those are all really desperate but we're not going to Chicago. Or Atlanta or Denver. And those are all really disparate
but we're going to make it work. The reason why
we're going where we're going is because
there were festivals that were
planned for that so we just booked
cities around it. But we're not shading Chicago.
We are coming. I would
imagine it's going to happen this year. I've said
openly and publicly
at the risk of my own self-image that
I love Chicago so much.
Why is that a risk?
I'm just kidding.
It was just a little flavor that I threw.
Oh,
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
It was a bit.
I think we should be talking.
Chicago,
Denver,
and I want to go to Atlanta and you know,
bitch,
I want to go to Orlando and do a show there.
Come on.
We got to go.
Me on me.
And now it's time for,
I don't think so,
honey.
And should I go first?
I can go first too. You go first. I love that. Here we go. This is Bowen Yang. Fuck. I Don't Think So Honey, and should I go first? I can go first, too.
You go first.
I love that.
Here we go.
This is Bowen Yang's.
Fuck, I didn't even have one.
This is Bowen Yang's I Don't Think So Honey,
and his time starts now.
I Don't Think So Honey, Mary Poppins,
or I guess Disney for not sending me
the actual screen for Mary Poppins Returns.
All they did was send me a fucking
for your consideration card.
Bitch, give me the screener, okay?
I want the DVD to put in my PlayStation
4 so I can watch it from the comfort of my
own home and not have to shell
$30 plus at an Alamo
Drafthouse to watch Mary Poppins and to watch
Lin-Manuel butcher a
Cockney accent while I'm eating
so-so queso. I love you, Alamo
Drafthouse. Never mind. Your queso is actually
really good. 30 seconds. Because
it's a Texan chain and therefore they are going to get the case right but mary poppins returns i need the
screener what do you i get i got a screen for everything else except mary poppins returns
why are you playing hard to get disney because you're disney no honey no bitch 15 seconds if i
keep giving you money every single year for going to your theme parks and for partaking in your
pleasantries in your parks at least give me a DVD
that costs you next to nothing to make
and to ship to me and my address
let me be an informed voter and
you're doing me a disservice if not
and that's one minute and that is
obviously a callback to before
you were pressed about your screeners
I was and also check your
mail though because I did get that one
you did I just got the card I got it like it was a card that was in an about your screeners. I was. Also, check your mail, though, because I did get that one. You did?
I did.
I just got the card.
I got it.
It was a card that was in an envelope full of other screeners.
And then the wife was in there.
You might be able to just get that.
You might stream that one online.
But yeah, look into it.
Mine actually is very topical with that.
Okay, very topical.
This is Matt Rodgers'
I Don't Think So, Honey.
His time starts now.
I Don't Think So, Honey,
Mary Poppins Revenge,
because...
Revenge!
Keep going.
Keep going.
Keep going.
I don't think so, honey. Mary Poppins
revenge
returns.
I don't think so.
I don't think so, honey. Mary Poppins returns
because for being so boring
in the middle. It was so boring in the middle.
In fact, it was so boring that I literally was sitting there dehydrated with boredom
after a thrilling beginning.
30 seconds.
And then I left to go to the bathroom and AKA was just checking my phone.
And then I walked in and it was the end of the Meryl Streep part.
I missed her whole part.
Because I was so fucking bored.
Like it's like an hour and 20 minutes in and I'm like,
oh my God,
I have to go.
I missed the entire 10 minutes that Meryl was in the movie.
Then it gets really good again at the end.
And I cried,
but like,
holy shit,
Disney,
the same thing with Moana.
The whole act two is crazy.
You're so right.
You start great.
The middle is boring.
And then the end is thrilling.
And it's like,
oh,
that's one minute. Mary Poppins revenge it's like, ugh. That's one minute.
Mary Poppins Revenge.
That's a good ride at Matt Rogers World.
I think the next one... That's a Matt Rogers World ride.
That is.
That's a Matt Rogers World ride.
Mary Poppins, the revenge.
She kills all her relatives.
She kills them all, and it ends really sad.
Yeah, that fucking little beak on that umbrella pecks at their skin.
Because actually what...
I don't know what to look at.
What the fuck?
Okay.
It's actually, in Mary Poppins Revenge, the theme park ride that I will make,
it's revealed that she actually is a witch, which makes a lot of sense because hello.
I think she is though isn't she well she she
something happens with her that's never that's not explained where she actually commits to all
of her witchy bad parts of her personality and mary poppins and she's hung she's hanged she's
hanged and comes back as a ghoul as a ghoul i think there's there's some fan theory out there
where it's the same universe as wizard of o where Mary Poppins is Glynda's
she's a good witch of the south
I see
interesting but she crosses over into
she does a reverse story
but that movie is boring for like an hour in the middle
I see
it's pretty
but you nailed it on the head with Moana
that is my issue with Moana
everyone's like why do you hate Moana
I'm like I don't hate it I love it
I just think it sags like it like no
other movie sucks yeah
I mean there's
brilliant parts to it
yeah I'm like when
Henry and I went to
go see Disney on ice
like they did a Moana
part and I was like
you got emotional this
should have been the
whole movie just a
12-minute how far I'll
go extended thing
because it's like the
whole middle of the
movie is like
dehydratingly boring
dehydrated this is new
this is I love this new term
you got dehydrated I remember one time
when I was in APM my month of science
I felt so bored in class
one day that I literally was feeling
dehydrated and so ever since then
to describe me at my peak of
boredom I'll say I'm dehydrated with
boredom I love that that's'm dehydrated with boredom. I love that.
That's good.
Thank you for that Shakespearean turn of phrase.
