Starting point is 00:00:01 Hey guys, page 7 and Wizard and the Brewser are going on tour. Yes, the release that Butthole Cut Tour. Holden, where are we going? That's right. Starting in June, we are going to Portland, Oregon, Tacoma, Washington, Oklahoma City, Kansas City, and St. Louis, Missouri. Where can we get tickets, MJ? For tickets, go to Lastpodcastnetwork.com.
Starting point is 00:00:22 What's that one more time? That's Lastpodcastnetwork.com. Yeah. Noice. And you're going to say, Jackie, that's disgusting. But this song goes out to my older brother, Henry Zabrowski. Give me one margarita, I'm going to open my legs. Give me two margaritas, I'm going to give you some head.
Starting point is 00:00:52 Give me three, margaritas. I'm going to put it in my purse. Give me four margaritas. I'm going to put it in my tush. Yeah, give me five margaritas. I'm going to have something fun. Give me five margaritas. I'm going to put it in your butt.
Starting point is 00:01:06 And the reason why it goes out to Henry is because we were at the airport. at 4.45 in the morning, 5 a.m. And he just wouldn't stop singing it. And it felt like, you know how like last week you guys were in a prison with me? I felt like I was in a prison with him. Yeah. And he just wouldn't stop. And then he made me sit and watch the video.
Starting point is 00:01:29 And if you're not familiar with this, this is a TikTok song. It's like a viral TikTok song, which I have heard before. And he's like, well, you haven't heard it? What you have heard? I have heard the song before. But you must stop sing. it. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:01:43 It's very good. It's so good. I'm on Team Henry. It's very good. And its origin story is even better. Yeah. I have you, had you already seen that,
Starting point is 00:01:52 I'd seen that video before of the old bat on campus. And it's interesting because she has an audience, this old lady. We're talking about sister Cindy. This all, this viral song came from
Starting point is 00:02:03 Sister Cindy. Sister Cindy doesn't sing the song. This is the sister that was discussing abstinence on the campus of Louisiana State University. and she yelled, if you buy her one margarita, she will spread her legs. And then everybody, she said it was a bad thing.
Starting point is 00:02:18 And everyone throws their diploma hats up in the area. It's so much. It's just the opposite reaction to what she wants. And it's so funny. She's just so defeated by it. And I love it so much. And then this fucking hip-hop track to fucking rule the nation, dude, it is. That chick angel who I believe, so that chick angel who's been on a black lady sketch show and also I think that this came out of her podcast.
Starting point is 00:02:50 And yeah, it was a joke that then collectively turned into, it's like a great example. What I love about the internet and especially TikTok and like so many things about the internet right now feel like it's like a kind of crumbling civilization, you know? Like we have certainly reached past the point when it was good. But like at its best, TikTok could be this kind of rolling creative. process where somebody has a really good idea and then somebody else adds to it and it's so funny. And there's these TikToks, you know, of people where it's like you reach out of the frame and then somebody makes an, adds on to that video where they're in the other frame adding. And it's this great kind of like duet thing. Yeah, like that art game, you know, where you fold the paper and you draw a half
Starting point is 00:03:29 exquisite corpses. That's what it's called. And so this is like this perfect. Like she started off this like the lyrics as a joke and then people, these two like artists, music artists added a beat to it. And so it became this rolling thing and now it's a song. And I had not heard the origin story first. So I just heard the song and I was like, is this lady crazy? And then I realized like, no, she's a comedian and this is like a project. And it's so funny.
Starting point is 00:03:55 And it is a banger. Lizzo said it's the summer jam. I want it to be the summer jam. It is the summer jam. And on top of that, I think there is such a difference between laughing at internet culture and laughing with internet culture. Because like the other end of that spectrum is Island,
Starting point is 00:04:10 Island Boy, Chet Hanks, like these kinds of things, and they feel a little dirtier, a little more insidious, a little ickier, like, yeah, we're all getting together on this thing, but at the expense of someone, this is just pure enjoyment. There's nothing, they meant it to be funny. I mean, Sister Hazel or whatever name is probably,
Starting point is 00:04:30 sister Cindy, you know, might not love it. God, I would love to show her this and be like, dude, you're, because of the thing you said, trying to get the opposite thing to happen, you're now song of the summer and everybody's getting drunk and getting fagged. Like you are doing that
Starting point is 00:04:49 and it because your worst nightmare. If only we could show these people like every time someone is annoying like that or whatever anyways I always think I'm just like all you're doing is getting me to like hate your thing like because you're so annoying on like a street corner about it.
Starting point is 00:05:04 You know what I mean? And trying to make people feel bad. You're like doing a disservice to the religion. And so this is a, perfect example of that, like completely come to fruition because how many people are going to be just slamming away at each other in some dive bar bathroom because of that track coming on at the right time, five margaritas in. And your beehole is barking for it. There is nothing quite like that when you're just at like a beach bar and you're all kind of covered in sand and sweat and try to
Starting point is 00:05:34 hook up. And you're just like, why are we doing this? We're literally rubbing. We're making sandpaper with our bodies. There's nothing fun of it. You're just covered and sweat. And covered and drool because you've been drooling for it. And then you realize it's a dolphin. And you're like, get out of you. They, I was going to say a fact about a dolphin that I shouldn't say about dolphins.
Starting point is 00:05:56 What's the fact about the dolphin? Is it the fact that everyone always says about dolphins? What they rape for. Yeah, yeah, good. I'm so glad. Not in this instance. It was very consensual, okay? They're also very smart.
Starting point is 00:06:10 I'll have you know, Jackie. Maybe that's the fact I was going to say that they're very smart. Everyone knows two facts about dolphins. They're rapists and they're smart. And they're smart. The worst combination. It is. They really need to be stopped.
Starting point is 00:06:25 They're all Patrick Batemans of the sea. Well, we've got a couple of dolphins here coming in live in the studio. MJ, how is your water world bananas? I did, MJ, everything. Every, like, Insta story I see of you guys at these water parks makes me, like, I am having a panic attack just thinking about it. I know. I am living Jackie's worst nightmare and my greatest dream. I'm also really living, I've been thinking a lot about margaritas, so the one margarita song couldn't come at a better time because I did wear my Margaritaville crocs to the water park resort hotel.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Oh, hell yeah. Was it a good idea? No. Why? Well, let me explain why. because the Jimmy Buffet, Margaritaville Crocs, come with six gibbets, a shot glass, a lime, a lost shaker of salt, and three ice cubes.
Starting point is 00:07:17 But you lost the shaker. I have the salt. Well, right, in the song, the shaker. Don't worry, it'll get lost, but it is labeled lost shaker of salt, but it is still there. It's knocked over. It's meant to be like a horizontal. Oh, no, but then you got to keep throwing salt over your shoulder.
Starting point is 00:07:36 I know. I've got a lot of things to say about this, salt. There's also a little umbrella, but here's the thing. Most gibbets are, I'm not going to say two-dimensional, but they are flat, three-dimensional. These are extremely three-dimensional gibbets, and they are extremely impractical. They are fallen all over the place. Not to mention, I didn't even consider how much my children step on my feet, which I just hadn't considered. And so the vacation literally began with us walking down the hallway to the water park, with me and all my gibbets and they kept falling off.
Starting point is 00:08:10 And I kept getting more and more frustrated. At one point, Friday just goes, these fucking gibbets. Wow. Wow. Which I figured page seven would be happy that my five-year-old knows the phrase, these fucking gibbets. These fucking gibbets.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Is that the first time she's cursed? She only curses, the only other time I've heard her curse like that was also appropriate usage when a car did something really unsafe. we were walking, we were crossing the street, and a car zoomed through the light, and she goes, that fucking car! And I was like, you're right. But I think that's, it's because I'm pretty good at not swearing in front of them, but I swear in moments of passion, which often are when cars are doing unsafe things. So she, it was perfect usage. And she could tell that the gibbets were so annoying that they warranted a- These fucking Jimpits. She was right. You can't yell at a kid for saying
Starting point is 00:09:00 something like, you're right, these fucking Jimbits. These fucking Jimbits are so impossible. Do they catch on things? Because I feel like in my head they would also, like, if they're that three-dimensional, they're going to catch on things. Absolutely. They're just, I don't see anyone else at this. And there are thousands of people here. But I don't see anyone else at this water park struggling with their gibbets constantly.
Starting point is 00:09:20 But I just had to remove the gibbets entirely. So now I just got, it's sad. It's sad for Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Crocs that the gibbets aren't working. But at least I, Gideon and I did sneak away yesterday because this is, oh, my God, I love this place. It's everyone's worst nightmare. It is an all-inclusive. It's not all-inclusive because everything costs money, but it is like a self-contained civilization.
Starting point is 00:09:41 There, you don't, we have not left the building in four days. This is the vacations I want. Yeah, because you don't want to get in the car with kids. With kids, yeah. I want to be able to just go everywhere in the one place. Yes. And mostly it's just sitting by a pool or whatever the hell. But of course, there's a problem, though, with the family trip,
Starting point is 00:09:59 you've got to have activities for the little ones. And it's just draining. Get drunk at a, right. pool side bar, just lay. But Gideon and I did sneak away for some margaritas yesterday, which was very exciting. Did you play him the song? I did it because I didn't know about the song until this morning when I read your email, but I'm about to play it for him.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Oh my God. You guys, we're going to be drinking this whole tour leg, by the way, Portland, Tacoma, we're seeing you this week. But also, St. Louis, Oklahoma City, Kansas City, get your tickets because we're coming soon and they're selling out fast. But also, I'm sorry. Oh, we're going to be singing. But we're also going to be drinking a lot of margaritas.
Starting point is 00:10:38 I have a feeling. I think this is a Rita summer now. Rita summer. Got it. And a real Rita summer. I'm sorry, Bud Light. Not Rita cans. And listen, Bud Light, I'm now on the, in the surprising position of being like, my
Starting point is 00:10:49 political allegiances are Bud Light. But you know, that works for me. I've always been a Bud Light Lime guy anyway. Sure. We will be drinking Rita's, but my brain, my body just can't do Bud Light Ritas anymore. It's just not, I don't know what it is. It's not alcohol. It's poison and I just can't do it.
Starting point is 00:11:09 Oh my God, you heard it here first. You literally are listening to us on page seven, grow up week by week. Remember, because if you think about it, our like whole, because Holden, MJ and I went through like quite a time where we were only drinking Rita's out of a can. And not like the fun ones, but the Bud Light Rita's. And getting all the Mangaritas and all the grape burritos. Because this was before you could get real alcohol in a can, like liquor in a can. It was just malt liquor that tastes like grape soda in a can.
Starting point is 00:11:40 And now we can't drink them anymore, dude. I guess this is growing up. Oh, yeah. I mean, the part where I don't just go to a bar and drink the cheapest beer they have in a can all night every now and again getting the like shot special that they offer. and that, like, going into a bar with the mindset of, like, I get the cheapest thing here. Yeah. So that I can have as much as possible. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Yeah, so I could have as much as possible as little money as possible because that's being smart. I know. Now I'm like, well, that makes this drink count. Or go have a nice cocktail. Right. And don't get dirty wasted. Yeah. Like, because the dirty alcohol hammered, too, is such a different, like, nasty hammered.
Starting point is 00:12:28 You know what I mean? I'm going to miss Budlight Rita's though because that's like Coney summers like in my brain that's like dirty Coney you get yourself a Nathan's and you don't go anywhere near the water or the sand but man you have a Coney experience you ride on a thing that feels like it might break and then you get yeah then you get your Rita's had you taken the kids to Coney yet have you done Coney with them yet or are they
Starting point is 00:12:55 too young no we did Coney a lot last summer actually and I We haven't done it yet this season, but I can't wait. That's the one thing I would change about Waterpark Hotel is that it is an entirely indoor experience. I have not felt the fresh air in. Oh, wow. Oh, wow. And you're sort of like a balcony off your room? No, there's that's, I guess that's not true.
Starting point is 00:13:14 There is a little, there's a little, we're in like the back corner. But still, it's like you're hanging out out there. Yeah, we're in like the back corner of the, we're with, there's nine people in our group, and we're in like a big room that's kind of in the back of the hotel. And it also seems to be where the staff takes. breaks. So like when we step out onto our little balcony, there's just like 30 water park staff like chilling in the grass, which is great, you know, but we're not spending a ton of time out there. But it is, yes. So I do look forward to an actual, I don't know if we have a beach vacation
Starting point is 00:13:44 in our midst this summer, but that's the hope. But it is a kind of a simulation of a beach experience in the sense that everyone is, no one is wearing real clothes. That's the other thing I love about it. Like, we love a vacation where there's just no incentive to ever get. dressed. You know, you're either wearing a swimsuit or you're wearing sweatpants. Everyone is wearing crocs. Crocks as far as the eye can see. Whoa. It is the official shoe. You have me up until that point. I guess that makes sense because you can throw the wet feet in there. You're not going to be slipping and sliding in them. You can go into the water with them. Everyone's in the pool. How long does it take a crock to dry there? Are you just kind of sitting there with semi-sog feet like all just
Starting point is 00:14:26 the whole time. You're just always, you're always a little wet, and your crocs are always a little wet. Somebody even put, I went down. I hate it. Yeah, I don't know if I like this part of it. How about this? Somebody, I was in line for the water slide yesterday, realized I had my crocs on, ran back down to take them off, but then, because I didn't want to go down.
Starting point is 00:14:45 They were like, no, those are my Margaritaville Crocs. Thank you. Hors are over there in the pile of other ones. Oh, well, the other thing is that the Margaritville Crocs have a bottle opener attached to them and I was like, I'm going to kill someone if this flies off my foot. Right. So I took them off. But other people were just going down the slide, just putting their crocks on their hands
Starting point is 00:15:04 and then going down the slides. That's so gross. That's so nasty. There are crocs everywhere. I hate that. I hate that. Well, it's the same thing as drinking shit beer all night. Well, you know, you put them on your hands.
Starting point is 00:15:25 I'll just go back around because it's nasty because that's nasty. Dude, I wonder how much like semen and piss water you've adjusted. You got to just know that just the water is just full of pee because there's just children under the age of two everywhere. And swim diapers don't hold pee. They only hold shit.
Starting point is 00:15:48 Not at all. Not at all. It's literally just a pool of pee. And also, I mean, they don't necessarily just contain all of the shit perfectly too. It's a harm reduction. A fair amount of shit water as well going on there. Oh my God. But it's the thing.
Starting point is 00:15:59 I mean, you guys, you guys don't need a booster now, dude. You're fine. I know. We don't need, yeah. Yeah, let's see what I bring you guys when I see you at about 36 hours. Bring us. Let it bring you some water-based bacteria that will probably spread.
Starting point is 00:16:15 I'm in a hose you down. The second I see you, you're getting a hose, MJ. I'm like, mm-mm, not my room. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. I'm having a great time. I love it. I'm so happy. What is something that surprised you about hanging out with the kids at this? Like in a good way. Yeah. I mean, I think that for any parents of young kids out there, I will say that that, you know, the first few years, we didn't really travel
Starting point is 00:16:44 for the first few years because of the pandemic. But then when we did travel, the kids were like one and three, almost two and four maybe. And it was like really, it was fun. It was stressful, right? Yeah, it was fun, but it was like not less stressful than regular life. And in fact, it was like more stressful than regular life in many ways, but fun and worth it, but just like really still very stressful. And I feel like now the kids are five and almost four. And I feel like, and the other kids were with are almost six and seven. And I feel like we've now reached a point where it's like still stressful.
Starting point is 00:17:14 You know, it's not a vacation without kids, but it's like much more fun and more. And it is way less stressful than a regular life, you know. And so it's like, we've been really enjoying our. ourselves and especially because there's no driving around. My kids hate the car. So it's just like, yeah, let's go down and get some ice cream. All right. We're, you know, we're going to go to the art.
Starting point is 00:17:33 There's an arcade. There's mini golf. Cruise on land. It is a cruise on land. I was just about to say cruise on land. It was a cruise on land. But the difficult part, which I don't know because I've never gone on a cruise with kids, but like, you know, you usually have like the nice dinners and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:17:50 So, but it also takes the pressure off of like, you don't even have to get dressed. stuff to go to dinner if you don't want. I guess you don't have to do that on a cruise either, but it's just kind of fun. I used to love, like, we used to do Florida vacations, pre-kids, and I was, and our beach vacations and I used to love, I really fancied myself a little vampire weekend boy, and I would be in swimsuits all day, and then I love to, like, shower and put on, like, a nice, like, linen shirt and, like, you know, be like, yeah, we're going to dinner, you know, like, dress, but that, that, that era of my life is, is, you know, right now, it's like, sweatpants and cracks to the
Starting point is 00:18:23 Yeah, it comes back, it comes back sooner, though, than you think. I mean, before you know it, they'll be able to go to, like, and I remember going to, like, kind of the fancy, like, dinner with my parents when I, you know, at a certain young age. And, like, there are rules and we have to, like, be the Olive Garden? Yeah, that was our Olive Garden. When Olive Garden came to to Beach, Iowa, that was real exciting. She must be an olive garden. I don't know what modern version of that exists, because I know they've all, like, they've all fallen to the, you know, to the, to the, to the bad,
Starting point is 00:18:53 I guess maybe Olive Garden still is there, but we've lamented this before. The Applebee's, the chilies, the binigans. They've all gone the way of the dodo to a certain degree. They're no longer this like family fine dining. That's what we need back. And also Pizza Hut, I'm looking at you. I'm seeing a lot of nostalgia. The old school Pizza Hut experience, walking in with the lamps hanging and the NeoGeo
Starting point is 00:19:17 cabinet in the corner. So soon I ordered my bucket hat. I've got my bucket hat on the way. If you listen to the leftovers, which join our Patreon if you'd like to listen to the episode, I am talking about where on air I buy the Pizza Hut bucket hat because it is, they make it look like the lampshades. Remember the old school lampshades of pizza? Did you order that like three months ago? I ordered it about three months ago and the man is high, Holden.
Starting point is 00:19:45 The man is high. It says it's going to ship in July. What did you order for the T-Swift merch store? Like, what is that in here? That's a knock at the T-Swift merch store because they take forever to send their stuff. And let's just surprise me with the new Speak. Now Taylor's version on vinyl
Starting point is 00:19:59 that I'll probably get in 2026. T-Swift merch store. Whatever. Yeah, except for the fact that you have to wait that long and you can only see her from really far away. Yeah. I lost my good second ticket connect. And I'm now once again forlorn.
Starting point is 00:20:18 I will be hopefully singer. I'm going to bring binoculars. Nobody knows what it feels like to be the sad mad. I look at your shitty remix, MJ. Jesus Christ. Nobody knows what it might be like if you are feeling like the sad man. Listen, I don't have to edit that down very well, all right?
Starting point is 00:20:41 You have to cut, you have to make some cuts, a little bit of extra. Too many syllables. Nobody understands what it might be like if you are thinking that you might be the sad man. I was with you, though. I knew where you were going. Just get to the sad men as far.
Starting point is 00:20:57 You just keep saying adverbs and shit. Nobody thinks that it might be bad if you are with a joy in where you are really like the sad. I'm sorry that I don't have as deep a familiarity with new metal as you do. Oh my God. way, but I know we got to talk about what the show's normally about, but man, did we get a bunch of fun nickname emails in? I don't know what
Starting point is 00:21:29 we got to do about that. We have so many fun nickname emails from last week. I have a couple that were pulled up that this one I just want to give shoutouts to Dev. Dev says I'm a she, her name Dev and the
Starting point is 00:21:45 dumb boys at my high school nicknamed me Dev bought because I was programmed to get good grades. which I realize sounds like a brag, but it gets dumber. Eventually, these boys started bringing ponchos to school to wear around me because robots can't get wet. They had a full campaign to protect me from imaginary water that I could encounter to make sure it wouldn't mess with my hardwire.
Starting point is 00:22:13 I don't know. High schoolers are stupid, love dev bot. Wow. That makes, that's a perfect example of like, that's a dumb joke. doesn't make sense why would they be wearing ponchos if she can't get wet? Yeah, give her the poncho. It's so fucking stupid. And that's the kind of thing that would make me go crazy because it's not about the
Starting point is 00:22:35 insult. It's about the shitty craftsmanship of the insult. It's the laziness. It's like, come on, you're here to torture me, dude. At least put some fucking effort into it. Don't just, and they did put effort into it. Bringing ponchos is like, I would be like, okay, money nickname. And then when they show up with the ponchos, I'd be like, you.
Starting point is 00:22:52 you know what, go fuck yourself. Fuck you. This is what it is. It's because it's not, again, it's not the part where it's kind of cool that they like put effort into it actually. But it's the part where they sat around and thought they were so funny and so smart to come up with this idea to bring ponchos when at the end of the day, they're a complete idiots. They're complete morons.
Starting point is 00:23:12 The joke makes no sense. Robots can't get wet, so I'm going to wear a poncho. There's so many other ideas you could come up with. Throw fucking water balloons at her. and then go, error, error, I was gonna say, well,
Starting point is 00:23:24 that's, I think you could probably get suspended for, shover, in the toilet, in a different way. Shubber face the toilet, beat her with sticks. I mean,
Starting point is 00:23:33 that's, what are we doing here? Anyway, what else? I love this. Do you have any, any else? I mean,
Starting point is 00:23:39 I've got, I've got some, just even just, Christy, the, I just wanted to give a shout out to Christy, who was referred to as chubs,
Starting point is 00:23:48 um, because their, their initials. Like, I empathize so much with Holden for the horrible school nickname. Mine was awful, but I hate that it was logical. It was early O-O's and classroom computers were fairly new. Because of the naming convention that my school decided on, the combination of my names slash initials made my username Chubbs.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Yes, you read that right. And yes, I was already one of the chubbies girls in my small school. And those fuckers latched onto this name like leeches. It is, that is just, like, the school also, wouldn't change my username. I feel like that's the thing. You have to like start a campaign. Yes. To change your username from Chubs. And I just want to say, Christy, so much love goes out to you because even though like they lost weight and still was referred to as Chubs and it didn't matter. So that's just, wow. High schoolers are just horrible. Yeah. If you are an adult who works in the admin
Starting point is 00:24:46 at a high school and you realize that one of the kids' usernames is Chubb. and you refuse to change it. I'm sorry, you deserve a special place in hell. Like, your job as an adult is to be like, I can understand why that might be hard at this age. I will help you, you know? Yes, I would totally help someone out. But I also want to give a shout out to Emma,
Starting point is 00:25:07 Emma who said, my dad calls me Smokey Joe. Whoa. Why? My dad used to call all my siblings and I Smokey Joe, mostly in Okie Dokey Smokey Joe, but also just calling me. us it instead of our names literally to this day. And I'm from Ohio
Starting point is 00:25:25 which means there was no regional specific thing that would connect Smokey Joe back to Holden. Additionally, the way my dad said it was way more endearing than derogatory so I don't know if my dad was wrong for making an endearing or if Holden's bully was wrong for making it an insult. I think Holden's bully was wrong for making
Starting point is 00:25:41 it an insult. Yeah. Well, that's the thing and I just want to say that there's no connection of them coming up with that with Okie dokey Smokey Joe. There was no reference embedded. But also, Okie dokey Smokey Joe is very cute. I've never heard that. It's very cute. I've never heard that either. I've never heard Okie do. I think
Starting point is 00:25:59 Dad just added it to the end, which I think is really cute. Very daddish. This is what they do. They go, Smokey Joe, he's smoking. I like that. That's how they sounded and everything. But I just want to say thank you guys so much for sending in your bad nicknames because there's a lot. We have a wall of these. I might try to compile some more because this is too far. It's like when we asked for meat puking stories and we got so many.
Starting point is 00:26:25 And it was like, so many good ones. And I love that we can all share in this because like what a tragedy. I mean, it's just something you didn't ask for. I mean, talk about consent and lack thereof to be given a nickname that is just absolute trash that you never asked for that, you know. And only in adulthood could you be like, hey, I really don't love when you guys call me, you know, fart face or fart back. I don't like it. It makes me upset. And then the other adults go, you're right.
Starting point is 00:26:57 It is kind of weird that we call you, you know, fartlina. Yeah. You know what I mean? And I get that that harms you. It's ever since you bought that book for your daughter about your fart times. I feel like MJ and I are like microaggressioning Jackie right now because you went to this water park weekend with the crocs. I picked up a book for winning called Toot and it's all about farts.
Starting point is 00:27:18 And I just would, I was like, Jackie, you would hate. the book I got for Wendy. It is just super embracing the fart to all different types of farts. Did you know, it's like... The Jackie, the young people now say toot or boot as a, like, is it a thumbs up or a thumbs down, toot or boot? So fart or kick someone? Yeah, like, to...
Starting point is 00:27:39 I think it's like toot-toot, not... Toot-toot-t-y. Yeah, like, Toot-toot is like a yeah and a boot. See, that I'm into, I'm into making the train motion and go and to-toot-you. You're into to-toot-toot. Yeah. I'm down. I like toot or boot. I'll give them, I'll give them the boot. But I don't, I also, yeah, or you get tut, tut, dude. But I think if you're going to say that, I'm going to go tut, dude, or boot, boot.
Starting point is 00:28:03 Like, I think I have to say it. So that everyone knows, that everybody knows that I'm not talking about flatulence. Yeah. And no, I wouldn't shame a child for their farting. You know, a well-play, you know a well-placed fart. The fart attack, Jerry's fart attack and parks at rec is very funny. Okay? Farts are funny sometimes. Yeah. Writing a whole book about it. Who is this person?
Starting point is 00:28:25 That's just like, oh, I've got so much to say towards children about their farts. Oh my God. My kids are upset. They're like these angelic princess queens and they are just the filthiest sailors you've ever heard right now. They're saying fucking gibbets and they love poop jokes and fart jokes. They just, they would, they cannot get enough. Yeah, you're in that phase. You're in that phase.
Starting point is 00:28:47 I saw that, um, Guideon receipts. Gideon received more pooping and peeing pictures for Father's Day. Yeah, and like 50% of the pictures of Gidey is pooping and peeing in the picture, as pictures as drawn by the kids, not photographs. Not photographs! What if you're just taking pictures? That'd be upsetting. A poor Gideon while he's like, like, surprise!
Starting point is 00:29:08 Just like on the toilet, just taking pictures of him, just to fuck with him. Oh, my God. No, they just, they drew one where he's pooping and pee in, and his eyes are so bloodshot. Like, what are you guys doing? He's just so hot. Poop it and peeing. And then they explained, this is a picture of you pooping and pee in. And you're like, thank you very much for explaining because I would have had no idea.
Starting point is 00:29:37 And, you know, there's lots of things that could or could not be explained about. I'm going to talk about the idol because we talked about the idol so much last week that is not getting another season. I think it's for the best. But if there's one thing that is not surprising, it is that intimacy coordinators are very upset about them knocking intimacy coordinators during the first episode of the Idol. I mean, I think it's so stupid that whole intimacy coordinator thing. I made fun of it so hard. But also the like funny dutty intimacy coordinator getting all upset about it is also like not, you know, just hilarious and like, you know, You know what I mean? Like just being so like, it's like you're just playing the role so fucking hard. It's one of those things where I think it doesn't, the way that the internet cycles work now,
Starting point is 00:30:27 it's just right. Unfortunately, I think to have variety be like, we reached out to an intimacy coordinator to ask them about what they think about the idol making fun of intimacy coordinators. It just immediately feels annoying. I hated it and I hate fun and funny jokes. It's going to make it seem like the intimacy coordinator is the shitty one. But the idol is the shitty one in the situation. And it was, the one thing that was interesting.
Starting point is 00:30:47 was that the intimacy coordinator that they speak to in this article was like, who was unaffiliated with the idol, just an intimacy coordinator being like, don't make fun of us, which again is like, do we need that article? Not probably not really. But they were like, it is a three-day weekend. Yeah. Everybody had a three-day weekend, so articles are, you know, they got to make articles. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:08 Three-day weekend, do you think that's what the weekend changes name to? It's like going to be Memorial Day. Yeah, I bet. I don't think anyone wants them around for three days, though. I'd be like, get out of here, weekend. Get out of here. The only weekend I don't like. I did get some insights like around this article, though, of this person being like,
Starting point is 00:31:26 it's not fun or funny to make fun of us. You don't. But I will say, it was actually true the part where if you made a change to the terms, a mandatory 48-hour period. I thought that was something they made up in the show just to like, for, you know, the script's sake. but no, if you say, hey, I'm going to actually, we're going to show some, we're going to get the tit full out or whatever it is, or we're going to like make out or whatever it is on,
Starting point is 00:31:56 in addition to whatever was in the terms, they purposely make you wait 48 hours before you can resume filming so that the person doesn't feel pressured on set. To like say yes to it? To do anything. Yeah. Yeah. I mean. So that actually makes sense. It actually makes sense. Right. Like the, like the actually, the article ended up being, again, it immediately feels irily. There was. some interesting things in there. Like the person said, you know, people should view us as the same way they've used stunt coordinators. Like, you're there to make sure that nothing goes wrong, you know, and the states are high for, to make sure nothing goes wrong, like differently high. And also they said that, you know, HBO, I think, was one of the first networks to like, to support intimacy
Starting point is 00:32:35 coordinators because of what they, yeah, right, exactly. So to have HBO then be like, ho-ho, fucking intimacy coordinators, am I right? So it was like kind of interesting. But also, it's funny that the idol has just been immediately not renewed. Like it's just like not going. It was just waiting. It was just so like uncool. Like it was, that's what it felt like. It felt like trying to be all cool
Starting point is 00:32:55 and hip and just coming off so lame. That's the whole show though. Really. But I also thought it was really interesting. A, that like they had to tell the crew about you know, they're an intimacy coordinator for the crew as well. So if something really, like they have to run
Starting point is 00:33:11 through everything with them and be like, because if I mean, hey, there's a lot of, who knows, on different sets, there could be a really difficult, like, sexual assault scene. And, like, the crew needs to know so they can step away if that's something that's going to be an issue for them. And I thought that was interesting. And then the other thing where the script does fall apart, it's not the 48-hour clause,
Starting point is 00:33:29 which is what I thought was, like, the dumb thing. It was like, oh, well, I guess that makes sense an insight. It's the part where, like, all of the management and everybody there were completely cool with her showing tit, and yet they put in the contract that she wasn't going to be showing tit. is idiotic and insane when like the person in the photo shoot, all of their people, everybody is cool with with a breast showing. It would have been in there.
Starting point is 00:33:53 It wouldn't have been in the contract, like that they wouldn't show a tit off. I see. Right? And then have to wait. Like, they would hammer that, all that would get hammered out. So the 48 hour thing, therefore makes both sense and would probably not be something that would happen in that way. Meaning the way they showed it in the show is not how it would ever actually happen.
Starting point is 00:34:17 Like nobody, yeah, because they all go over all the stuff and like are well aware of everything. So if it was like, and she will not show a tit, they would be like, no, she'll, she can show a chick. We want to show a cat. She'll show it. She loves to show it. I'll show them now, baby. You know what I mean? And do the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:34:35 And I still haven't seen the odd you guys' advice. I have not chosen to start the idol. But like, yeah, you don't have to. You should watch it. It makes me a little nervous that, like, I feel like this, um, there was obviously the whole Harvey Weinstein, Me Too thing that started in 2017 and has been kind of like a rolling process, but then always, of course, whenever there's progress, there's a reaction, you know? Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:34:58 And I fear that now this whole like, LOL intimacy coordinator thing is a bit of like maybe a reaction and overreaction to be like, oh, we all need to care about people's boundaries. And it's like, no, no, no, no, we still do. Like, yes, are people sometimes annoying about, you know, consent, talking about consent on the internet and maybe go too far in the other direction? Sure, whatever. But, like, the idea that it's like, oh, we all have to now point and laugh at the premise of an intimacy coordinator just feels like a little bit. Well, I fear that are we emerging into some reaction where it's, where now it's the cultural norm is to kind of like roll your eyes at the idea that sexual assault is pervasive in our society? Because that would be an unfortunate overcorrection, you know.
Starting point is 00:35:40 If the show was a massive success, then yes. But fortunately, everyone thinks it's the dumbest thing ever, which it is. And everybody can clearly see this is Sam Levinson just being like, oh, so annoying, right? And it's like you're this director that does morning TV shows. No one else has your experience or cares. No one else is fighting this to be the case. Just you. Like, so there's no, it's the really rich, you know,
Starting point is 00:36:10 cool, young, attractive guy being like, come on, we're like the same, right? You know what I mean? You and me? We're like the same guy, right? It's like, no. Yeah. That makes sense. It's like this, this, uh, the particular tone of the idol is not necessarily indicative of a broader
Starting point is 00:36:26 shift in. Not at all. Yeah. If it was like the, the hottest show on, on the planet, it'd be one thing. But it's so alienating because of all that stuff. It's so alienating. Uh, I, I love. it too when something's trying to be so cool and with it. And it's just like, man, it's so,
Starting point is 00:36:44 it's a pick me show. It's so, it's so pick me. It wants to be so like, it's so desperate for you to think it's edgy and cool and hip, you know, in a way that euphoria felt like kind of effortless. Right. Something happened. Right. Yeah. Well, I think what happened was like, that shows based on addiction and people having like these really difficult, you know, in high school. And I think came from a place of a person. I don't know how rich or successfully was before Euphoria. This is like the sophomore album after all the success. And then it's like, and then they go get rich and happy, you know, and then they try to write a breakup song.
Starting point is 00:37:23 And you're like, so I'm worried. I hope this Olivia Rodriguez new material is good. But I'm also, I've like worried for her because I'm like, how do you come out of sour? It's going to be great. Didn't you see her new singles coming out? It's called Vampires. And then Taylor Lautner, like.
Starting point is 00:37:39 tweeted at her and was just like, oh yeah, who turned you? And I was just like, oh my God, Twilight and Olivia Rodriguez-Rogickel! He's being very internet
Starting point is 00:37:49 cute right now, and I don't know. I'm like, sometimes I get like, do you not trust Taylor Lautner? I guess, you know, but remember he prayed for,
Starting point is 00:37:58 what's his name was Speak Now? Come and I prayed for John Mayer and all that. So we'll see. You think he's being too cute lately? He's a bit of a pick-me boy. I love this pick-me- girl thing. It's such, it's so fun, this pick me thing. Yeah. It's, it's, it's Riz. It is a useful concept,
Starting point is 00:38:16 especially in celebrity guy, it's the celebrity land. There's a lot of pick me, pick me people out there. Yeah. You got to know Riz as well. Yeah. And the situation definitely is a pick me person because I don't know about you guys, but I did go on to the, um, the situation, yes, from Jersey Shore, um, that we watch every Thursday over on our Patreon's Discord. And I bought, and I bought, to come this far. A painting. You can't see the background because it says, well, says,
Starting point is 00:38:44 Oh, I see. It's a lot. It's a picture of a lot. It's a tiger. There's a tiger. There's a faint tiger. Oh, I see the tiger. You see it?
Starting point is 00:38:51 And it says, we didn't come this far. Just to come this far. Here's what people need to know about the Situation Store. And it is called the Situation Store. And it has 500 items in it. It is. There's so many items on the situation.
Starting point is 00:39:09 It has so many things. And you could really get everything. You didn't come this far. Come this far. So many different inspirational lines. Some of them are about the situation. Some of them involve the word situation. Some of them don't.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Some of them just say, we didn't come this far just to come this far. It's not even the thing he says on the show. And there's baby clothes. There is, I mean, please look at the situation store. We spent the night the other night when we were watching Thursday, just looking at the situation store. And it's like, you know how when you're looking at merch and at the bottom,
Starting point is 00:39:38 it says like next page and usually there's like three or four it was like next page one dot that that 19 20 there's so many pages there's so many merch you will never you can't live long enough to look at every item that the situation sells i don't know how he does that's this is my other favorite one which i almost bought that says throw me to a pack of wolves and i shall return leading the pack it's my favorite. I just, I don't know, do I need it as a t-shirt? Do I need, I just need it in. I'm like, am I about to start?
Starting point is 00:40:12 Jeff looked at me and was just like, this is going to be the last thing you buy from the situation store, right? And I was just like, yeah, sure, I'm not going to start buying a bunch of stuff from the situation. And this is the other thing that you need to know if you're not a Jersey Shore reunion fan,
Starting point is 00:40:28 which is that the situation deserves this level of redemption narrative because he was the biggest piece of shit ever and that he like truly like recovered and came out of it. And so he deserves to say no one throws him to the wolves because he'll just come back stronger or whatever the fuck he's saying.
Starting point is 00:40:46 Reading the path and day. He's right. He earned his right to be this corny. Professional wrestling needs to take a cue from this situation on Jersey Shore. I have never seen a heel turn or an opposite heel turn works so well for a group of people.
Starting point is 00:41:03 I mean, you guys fucking hated this guy. I mean, I'm not talking about just you guys. I'm also talking about the whole group for the Jersey Shore Watch Along, Patreon.com forward slash page 7 podcast. I mean, he was reviled. Yeah. He was just the venom.
Starting point is 00:41:19 Every time he showed his face on the screen, everybody in that group chat would just be like, ah, I hate him. Burn him at the stake. He was toxic, he was manipulative, you know. He was misogynistic. He was a bully. You know, that targeted.
Starting point is 00:41:33 He got sober. He came back in. Now all he does is eat. He just likes his food. He loves food. He's sweet. He's nice to vote. He's engaged. He went to prison.
Starting point is 00:41:41 He did his time. A woman starts twirking. He abhers his eyes. And he like really facilitates productive like conversation between the other people if they're having conflict. It is shocking. He is, he should be the poster boy for rehab. Like it really, really, really worked for him.
Starting point is 00:41:59 And I'm so happy for him. And if anybody was around in like 2009, you just know that the situation was a punchline of like the dickiest possible guy you could ever imagine. And now he just sells hundreds and hundreds of items worth of merchandise. And you can go support him. But he does have multiple sobriety shirts as well. Don't work. He's like sober as fuck.
Starting point is 00:42:20 He also has one that says, born to be real, not perfect. Wow. And you know what I agree with him. Yeah. Oh, and one more programming note, totally unrelated to the situation. I don't remember what made me think of it. But correction, Megan Fox is queer. She's bi, and I didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:42:40 And so I just want to say I did not mean to do any sort of buy erasure or queer erasure what I said last week. People are targeting Megan Fox for her parenting. And I was wondering why, like this is somebody who's partnered with a man. Why are you? And I think I said, you know, she's not even a queer celebrity. But it turns out she is. And doesn't that make her even more attractive?
Starting point is 00:42:58 Yes. Because I think it does. And so queer Megan Fox. Thumbs up. Hell yeah. Absolutely. Now I would be thrilled to have a go at her. Really ram her down.
Starting point is 00:43:07 As you were saying it, I was just like, in my head I saw Megan Markle and I was like, wow. That's very, like, I was really head. When were we talking about Megan Markle being, being queer? When were we like, or not being queer? That would be great, though, if the queen had to be like, well, I don't approve of you for several reasons. Just tack it on. We're not going down the Megan Markle hole right now. Let's just, we'll talk about it in the leftovers for sure.
Starting point is 00:43:39 Interesting stuff, though, man. I'm so curious about, like, I have, like, taken a big step back because, like, when everything got very messy in the world of the royals, I really did get to a point where I was like, I don't know what the fuck is real and what's not. Like, obviously the racism is real. But, like, you know, I know that it's hard for you to see them to go through dark Yeah, well, that's really what it is. And I can't even watch because I'm just,
Starting point is 00:44:05 I'm simping for them so hard that I'm just like, they have to be perfect. But like all the stuff with like, you know, Megan Markle and Prince Harry with like the like $20 million deal with Spotify and all that stuff. I've kind of just been like waiting to see how this all plays out. And I think that it is, we are watching it get played out now.
Starting point is 00:44:27 It feels like things are not as they appear. Yes. It's all you grace. You know what I mean? It feels. like a curious case. Yeah, it's a curious case. It's a curious case.
Starting point is 00:44:38 To just suggest that something maybe a boost just whispered Natalia Grace. Natalia Grace. Man, what a way. Did you continue watching it, Holden? Yeah, we're still, I think we have one more episode. We're probably finished tonight. Man, what a twisty. And of course I go on my Cuppostream
Starting point is 00:44:54 with Lexi. We've only watched one episode. And it's, by the way, just heads up. It's one of those, in a way, it's annoying. But it's also like really entertaining. documentary filmmaking, but it's not very, like, legitimate when they do this. They definitely, like, really sell you on one version of the events and then really go, Sike! It's not like that at all.
Starting point is 00:45:17 It's the opposite. So, of course, Likes and I have only watched the first one or two episodes where they sell you the bullshit version. And we're like, wow, these fucking people, right? And everyone's like, keep watching idiots. It's completely different. That's why when you were like, Jackie. You said it wasn't like the orphan, but it's like totally the orphan.
Starting point is 00:45:35 And I'm like, okay. Okay. You're an idiot. But I keep watching the show you're only on the first episode. But also, like, come on. Like, don't, I don't want to watch a, you know, I'm not playing three card money on the street right now. Just give me some, give me the facts.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Don't sell me on a complete bullshit version. You make a good docu series. I watched every episode. It's very manipulative. Because there's some, like, honestly. I'm about to have watched it all. It's fucking entertaining a cell. Like Bama Rush, where I,
Starting point is 00:46:02 I kind of lost it towards the end of Bama Rush because it was like, oh, oh, okay. They just got kind of fucked. Yeah, you can really just watch the first half of Bama Rush and that it just, they just get fucked. They just lose their in. Which makes sense.
Starting point is 00:46:16 I mean, it's literally a secret society, you know what I mean? So it's not really like as soon as they're like, and they're just like, yeah, these cameras are like, ask me questions. It's interesting, right? They're like, no, don't do that. Yeah, don't talk about our secret society. Well, then you can't join our sorority.
Starting point is 00:46:35 Okay, I'll stop. Like, and that's the it. Like, it's not like there's any leverage for the documentary to keep making it, like, getting to get the inside in. Anyways, I guess it's time for the celebrity conspiracy. I mean, like, it feels, it's a fun, it's a weird week, you know what I mean? But we got some, we'll have some, talking, some quick hits to talk about the leftovers. Oh, yeah, we'll have quick hits over on the leftover.
Starting point is 00:46:57 It's going to be great. We're tour. We're going to, you know, we've got, we've got things. going on. It's the summer. Stuff is happening. We're going to talk about cracks in water parks. We're in our wheelhousehold and we're thriving. Just for example, I'm not criticizing it because it's really just the newsweek.
Starting point is 00:47:11 Just for example, one of the lead articles was Michael Serra and Arbor Plaza almost got married in Vegas so they could have a joke that they could call each other ex-husband, but they didn't. So the whole news story is about a thing that didn't happen. But what did have been thought if it did? I would love it. It'd be funny and silly if I sky dove off of the. Byer State Building, but I didn't do it.
Starting point is 00:47:35 Huff Post, do you want to write an article about that? Maybe they do. It's a three-day weekend. It's difficult for people to get out the content, right? It's difficult. You did an amazing job scraping up these articles, Jackie. We will talk about all the remaining ones in the leftovers for sure. But until that time, pageant.com.
Starting point is 00:47:56 4. slash page 7 podcasts, it's time to hit me with the share. Do you believe it? Is Tay-Tay controlling the NBA a final? What? What? Yes, that's right. Does she watch basketball? Yes, she may be, who knows?
Starting point is 00:48:14 Who gets a shit? We got a couple of these in. One from Kate. But multiple people wrote in. Kate, who linked to TikTok about it. It also came in from Jake who writes, What's up, Pace of a group. Long time, first time.
Starting point is 00:48:27 Beholden, as a fellow adult male Swifty, I felt it was my duty to regale you with a conspiracy. that had me a shaking in my boots. I saw this on TikTok and while I know the three comigos on this pod are not the, with the C-U-W-I-W-E-W-E-W-E-W-E-W. Why are we not calling ourselves the three comigos?
Starting point is 00:48:46 I love that. On this pod are not the biggest sports get, are not the biggest sports get game people. Thank you. I thought you would find this fascinating. Taylor Swift Erez Tour has been taking place during the NBA finals in every city she has performed and has dealt with the Oso-Witchy sexy and may I say alarming repercussions.
Starting point is 00:49:07 Taylor played three shows in Atlanta right after the Atlanta Hawks lost their series of the Boston Celtics, but then immediately after she played three shows in Philadelphia during the Philadelphia 76ers series, also against the Boston Celtics, of which I'm sure you guessed, the 76ers lost. But here's where it gets good. Taylor then performed shows in Boston where the Celtics took on the Miami Heat, and the Heat ended up winning in dramatic fashion. Fans have been talking loudly about how, Every city Tay has played in has had their basketball team eliminated in the playoffs. But then the yarn lines on every fan gal guys, Taylor board started pointing towards one thing. And this time it wasn't about her many, many relationships.
Starting point is 00:49:47 The championship series for the NBA finals is between the Denver Nuggets and the four-mentioned Miami Heat. But Taylor has never performed in Miami and is scheduled to play in Denver very soon. Oh, no. Answer my blown emoji here. Does this mean that the heat will win the NBA finals due to the absolutely gut-wrenchingly undeniable vice grip? Tate, our ba-bay, has on our modern culture, meaning that Taylor is in control of not just the music entertainment, but entertainment as a whole ranging from music to sports to politics to war. Okay, maybe not war. Or is this all just a big, fat, girthy coincidence?
Starting point is 00:50:23 That is for you to decide. All I can say is, I believe, don't even come at me with the share. Anywhozen, love you guys so much and being in the O.C. area, hope to come and meet you at a karaoke night or a show in L.A. soon. Met with the last podcast boys in the past, as well as Eddie and Julie. But more than anything, I'd want to throw some back with y'all
Starting point is 00:50:43 and have a great time talking about this, that, and those dirty, dirty others. Rounds on me. Thank you so much, Jake. Yes, for the three comigos, which is really where my brain stopped because I've just been absorbed with thinking about us being called the three comigos. I know, it's great.
Starting point is 00:50:59 I love that. I mean... And I love this theory. It's great. It's got everything. It's got like dark magic. Yeah. You know? It's got the systematic takedown of an entire professional sport.
Starting point is 00:51:10 Yeah. I think it's fantastic. I love superstition around sports and when people decide some external thing is affecting the juju of like the game and the championships. And so they get like weird about a thing that has nothing to do. And this is exactly that. It's like so funny to me because you know there are people legitimately upset with her right now because of this. So I hate to be, you know how I am with the sports.
Starting point is 00:51:39 Was it what sports football? Yeah. Has this happened already? I don't, I tried to look it up, but I got confused by what I saw. I was just trying to do the same thing. I just put in Denver basketball win question mark. And then I was like, I don't. I don't even know in what.
Starting point is 00:51:57 The three of us can figure out what happened with the playoffs. I think actually did the curse break. I think maybe Denver won the finals. Wow. Which was played, which was performed on June 12th, maybe. Performed. But I could be wrong. They set the stage.
Starting point is 00:52:19 They played the play. No wonder the bullies bullied you in high school. NBA finals, 2023. Are you guys performing the best? game tonight. Yeah. Yeah, because then it's just going to be like high school musical
Starting point is 00:52:32 and they're all just like dancing with their basketballs, which that I'm there for, please. Okay, the Denver Noggets did win the 2023 NBA finals. So I guess the curse broke. In a big way.
Starting point is 00:52:46 Speaking of Taylor, I forgot to do another listener shout out from Carmen who suggested that if we help hold and make bracelets for his era's show, Carmen said we should do it as like a bracelet party tutorial stream that people can watch live and join in. That'd be great. I mean, I guess I'll, I guess I'll make bracelets. I'm not sure if I'll be able to find anyone where I'm sitting is I'm going to be so high up. Like, it's going to be like, I need, they literally suggested climbing equipment. Like they were like, get a belay system to hoist yourself up to your seat. And so I don't even know what I'm going to do. I've got a, I'm going to try to. I'll, I'll,
Starting point is 00:53:26 try to figure something out, but hopefully if I see someone or maybe I can, you know what, I'll get a bracelet launcher to launch to all the people who are sitting in the reasonable other places to see the show. Then on your way up to the very back of the stadium, someone will be like, hey, friendie, I've got an extra seat right here next to me. Very close. And then you just abandon like, yeah. Hey.
Starting point is 00:53:47 Hey. Hey. By the way, yeah. Big, big call out, especially in L.A. Again, I'm yet again offering the full Holdwood McNeeley experience. we will pregame, we will hang out at the show. Of course, obviously, we'll get drinks after the show. I'll give you like some of Winnie's hair or something.
Starting point is 00:54:06 I don't know what you get, but just whatever you want. I'll sing you, I'll write you a song and sing it to you. Are you anything you want? If you have an extra ticket to any of the LA shows and it's literally not the last row in the stadium behind the stage, I would greatly, greatly appreciate a heads up. I will pay help a bad man, help a sad man. You don't know what it might be like if you're living in a situation where you feel like you might be just maybe, baby, baby. I don't know, but I think I might be the sad man, the bad man.
Starting point is 00:54:53 Oh, whatever. I guess we both believe. Yeah, I think I believe. Even though it's been proven that's broken, it doesn't mean it wasn't true before. It was true than the curse broke. And Jackie can't decide which list. Should we put it up to a vote?
Starting point is 00:55:14 I've decided. Because one of them really isn't that much of a list. I was in a dark place as I was picking out the list. I was like, I don't know. This one. I guess this one. Yeah, you, what is this handwritten list that you mailed us that says 13 people jacking what's to kill? I was like, what is that?
Starting point is 00:55:32 No, no. That's not Florida from her childhood. I was about to say, I did just go through all of my childhood. Yeah, your kill list. Yeah, you're, exactly. Oh, no. I should have been, well, I was suspended. Don't worry.
Starting point is 00:55:48 Don't worry. I should have been suspended. Wait, it happened. It happened. I did. All right. Should we sing the song? Sing me the song.
Starting point is 00:55:57 Oh, who's on the list? Jack A, got to have that list. Massive scandals that look downright quaint by modern standards. Now, you say this, this article claims this, but this stuff is still happening. Just think about what we were just talking about with Garth Brooks and Bud Light, where it says the Dixie Chickslam George W. Bush. In 2003, radio stations pulled their music and fans were outraged after they say, we do not want this war, this violence, and we're ashamed that the president is from Texas.
Starting point is 00:56:26 Much worse is said about the current and recent presidents daily. But it's still not something that is done at their shows usually because it still does create a big hubb. Totally. The idea that that couldn't happen now, I mean, it just looks different now because there's like 35 scandals a day. But like that was huge and totally, I think, very similar to what's happening now about trying to... What happened to the chicks is such a fucking...
Starting point is 00:56:51 fucking travesty and completely ridiculous and really just obviously shows how like gross the country music industry is. So yeah, this is so dumb. And could you imagine like no much shit people talk about Trump, like how many like celebrities get on stage or just like burn him to the state? You know what I mean? And everyone's like, yeah. Like it's just so funny. There's a great. Now.
Starting point is 00:57:16 There's a great you're wrong about. If anybody likes the podcast, you're wrong about there's a great one about the chicks. and there's one about the next item on the list as well. Shnade O'Connor tore up a picture of the Pope on S&L, and in 1992, the act got her a lifetime ban and effectively destroyed her mainstream career. In 2001, the Pope himself apologized for the sexual abuse of children by Catholic priests,
Starting point is 00:57:40 and with social media, political statements like this are made every day. It is, like, I don't think there's any way she would be banned now for ripping up a picture of the Pope. I think that maybe the public would not go after. Because she performed at like a Bob Dylan concert, I think, or something like the next day or something. And everyone, like, boot her off the stage. Yeah, I mean, it really did change the trajectory of her career. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:05 Drastically. And by the way, there's apparently a great Shnade O'Connor documentary that just came out. I think it might be on Max. Max. But anyways, apparently it's great. It covers obviously all of this stuff. But, you know, she was, like, legit. And a lot of things she did.
Starting point is 00:58:19 I mean, she fucking shaved her hair. She shaved her hair because I think they were like, you should grow your hair longer to be like hotter or something. And she was like, all right, cool. This is what I didn't know. She was a protest. She wanted to be a protest musician. Like that was why she did this.
Starting point is 00:58:32 She was like, I'm inspired by like, you know, Dylan and like the folk movements of music that came before me. Yeah, which is hilarious too to get booed off stage. I think it might have been at a Dylan show, which is so funny because, I mean, like, that's so hypocritical, you know, with what he went through, just switching to electric guitar,
Starting point is 00:58:51 which will probably be on this list. But, you know, it's just such a shame. I think the reason why, you know, with S&L, like they covered it in the live from New York book, it's a little more to do with the fact that it was also, like, not communicated. And Lorne Michaels is, like, such a stickler for running through everything that's going to happen on the show.
Starting point is 00:59:10 So if you do something that, like, you didn't communicate, you're, like, automatically banned. So I don't, you know, I'm sure also, though, it was like, you can't do that. like with the Pope, you know what I mean as well. And I think it's cool. What I didn't realize was that she like, she knew what she was doing. She wanted it to be, you know, it was a protest.
Starting point is 00:59:27 She wanted it to be controversial. She knew this was kind of a risk she was taking. Whereas I feel like when I heard about it, it was just like, that crazy lady did something great. It takes away all the agency from her of being like, this is a political choice that I'm making. And I don't care what it does to my career. Yeah, it was that. And then she like wore like a public enemy like shirt or hat or something when she accepted her Grammy because like African American artists were being shut out.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Oh, they were giving them awards. They just weren't televising it. Which is crazy. So, yeah, like, she's legit. She's amazing. And totally belongs on this list, like, tenfold. I mean, just totally got fucked over completely. And the entire world is turned around on all this stuff.
Starting point is 01:00:09 But also, the doc is called Nothing Compares and it's on Showtime. Oh, great. And I won't probably see it until I finally decide I really want to watch that new season of couples therapy in Yellow Jackets. and I just have to pay the money for it. I still haven't done it yet. And I kept saying, like, all right, once a couple of episodes of Yellow Jackets out.
Starting point is 01:00:28 Okay, now it's all out. And like, I have to get showtime. I have to do it. Yeah. There's a new Couples Therapy season two, so I got to get it. I love that show. Oh, couples therapy is so good.
Starting point is 01:00:38 I love that fucking show, man. Anyway, we talked about this on our rewind episode, Madonna and Britney Spears's VMA's kiss. At the 2003 VMAs, people were utterly shocked that Madonna sensually kissed Brittany and Christina Aguilera on stage. Only five years later, Katie Perry's hit song about kissing girls and liking
Starting point is 01:00:58 it hit number one on the billboards. Madonna is Madonna the ultimate pick-me, girl? Whoa, probably. I think Madonna might be the ultimate. Yeah. Well, it's started like here. There was just such a fierce need for relevance as
Starting point is 01:01:15 as she felt her time passing in the limelight and the spotlight of pop. It's like she's trying to get some of what Brittany had, you know, because she could see that Britney was the new her, you know, and I think she wasn't ready to give, in some ways. I'm probably purists of either artist would maybe not be into that comparison, but in terms of like Madonna was this incredible groundbreaking thing. And then I think as she aged out of it, she couldn't quite accept handing off the baton to, you know, to future artists. But it is baffling to think of this time when there was a, you know, what, three second kiss on TV and it was
Starting point is 01:01:53 fucking shook the nation, you know, it is strange to think back on that time. Well, it's that monoculture stuff. You know, again, a lot of this stuff, too, was because everyone was watching, like, like the next one, like everyone watched S&L on Saturday nights. It's not like people don't still, but like it is very different than it used to be. Like when Rage Against the Machine hung American flags upside down on S&L, they did this performance, before performing, but the flags were quickly taken down and they were asked to leave before performing a second song. This was in 1996 and things have gotten a lot more political on the show since then, which I don't, again, I think it harkens back to what you're saying about Lauren Michaels needing to be in control of absolutely everything that happens on SNL.
Starting point is 01:02:38 So I would assume it was more that than anything. But isn't that they just don't want the statements? It's interesting to have these two, the shenade one and the rage against the machine one next to each other. because again, they're both protest artists, but I think people understood Rage Against the Machine to be protest artists in a different way that they didn't understand
Starting point is 01:02:55 that about Cheney O'Connor. Although, of course, there's always like every few weeks some conservative will post, we'll retweet a Tom Morello tweet and be like, man, rage against the machine turned woke. And it's like, what do you think the band? Where have you been? What do you think the machine is, guys?
Starting point is 01:03:14 I just, the whole, I just, I would love If I could, if a genie popped out of my penis. Oh my God. What would you do? I'm with you. Or a lamp or whatever. Something you rub. I was given the wish.
Starting point is 01:03:30 One of them is to never hear the word woke ever again. It is never used in a way. It was, it kind of wasn't before, but now it is never used in a way that doesn't make me roll my eyes into the back of my skull. I'm so sick of that word. And it is just so obnoxious. You know what I mean? with fucking, I could, I want to name names of like annoying politicians.
Starting point is 01:03:50 I don't even want to give them that much. You know what I mean? So it's just like, you know, the state you spent a lot of time and Jackie's home state. Ugh. It's where what goes to die. Awful. I just, it is such a dumb word that no one even knows the meaning of anymore and is constantly misused and it's so fucking stupid.
Starting point is 01:04:11 And I just, I cannot believe people aren't more embarrassed when they say stuff out loud. Like, it is just. shocks me. Like, this doesn't embarrass you at all, like at all, Bud Light. Anyways, all. There's actually a lot of S&L ones in here, like Sam Kinnison, which of course, Sam Kinnison is, was wanted to stir the pot. He was on 1986. He was asked not to tell his joke about the crucifixion of Christ and he didn't listen. He also surprised everybody with a weed joke that he didn't do at rehearsal. Both the jokes were cut for the West Coast feed and he, he was. was banned from S&L.
Starting point is 01:04:49 I mean, I think, you know, this is one of the only ones where I'd say he probably would have been banned for that today. Yeah. Actually, that's not, I mean, maybe not jokes about it. He's not like he's doing what, like later on in this list, Cyprus Hill lit up a joint on SNL. The act in 1993. But Nesnell has the biggest rules.
Starting point is 01:05:09 Like, they have the biggest rules. And they were such an influential thing that when we were younger, you know. Yes. But also Elvis Costello got in and was also. band because he wasn't allowed to play radio radio because it was critical of corporate broadcasting. He played it anyway. Of course, that is something that he's just like making the stand.
Starting point is 01:05:28 And I think that I, that's a fun way to get banned. I feel like lots of these are fun ways to get banned. It's like, oh, you're going to tell me what I can and cannot do. Totally. Well, I'm going to do it. And go ahead. I'm a rock and roll musician. I got this platform one time.
Starting point is 01:05:40 I'm going to do what I can with it. Hell yeah. My whole point in life is to do stuff people tell me not to do. I play rock and roll for a living, like, especially back then. I mean, now it's whatever. Like everything else is, ugh, everything's so whatever. So, but anyways. Said like a man who recently lost his better era's tickets.
Starting point is 01:05:57 Oh, I guess I'll just, if anybody also knows any hot air balloon vendors. So I think that's the only way to get to my seat. I think they said you have to rent a hot air balloon and then jump off of it onto the seat. It's so far from everything. It's just so, yeah. Apparently to like, I guess I have to get ready for this. There's a full one song delay from what I see. It's like how the stars of the sky are from.
Starting point is 01:06:25 Is it like an obstructed view? For all. I mean, it's just so far away that, you know, at some points you might think it's you're watching like an ant circus. Yeah, I bet. You can watch it on TikTok. Maybe you can watch it on TikTok. Yeah, they suggest bringing your phone and having a hot spot.
Starting point is 01:06:45 so you can watch the show on TikTok instead of being in person watching the shows. Even the screens, even the giant screens apparently are really tiny from around city. The ride at Disneyland, the Peter Pan ride that makes you think that you're flying because all the people
Starting point is 01:07:01 are very small, you know? So it's like that. Oh, yeah. It's just like that. It'll be, so once you get up in that hot air balloon hold in, everything's going to be A-OK. It's all good.
Starting point is 01:07:12 I just have to make sure somebody has to like, apparently like, rescue me. from my seat at the end. You know, like they have to, like, you have to hire a Sherpa. I'm actually impressed, holding. You're not as broken as I thought you would be. He might get more broken over than we still have till August. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:28 It's so, it's so comical, you know. And my, especially my brother got amazing floor seats. It already saw her in Atlanta. You know, I have hope. I'm holding out hope that some thing's going to happen. We already have my strategy that I'm working on through a connection. I don't know. Did I talk about this on page 7 proper?
Starting point is 01:07:46 The person at Montessori. Yeah, so we already have that. I'm already still working. I'm playing the long game on that. That's going to take a couple months to try to make happen. So I might end up in the celeb booth. Technically, that like black booth. Oh, whatever.
Starting point is 01:07:59 Yeah, I bet that is where you're going to end up in August. It's possible. It's possible. You know, we're Ben Affleck, or not Affleck, who is in the booth. Paul. Bunyan. Jeovati. What are you talking?
Starting point is 01:08:12 Can you see or what? Oh, right, yeah, yeah. No, MJ, I want to talk about Paul Giamatti at the T's Way concert, okay? I bet he had a great time. You imagine what era would Paul Giamatti be, do you think? Oh, my God, he would, I think he's an Evermore kind of game, right? And he's in the autumn of his life, so I think he probably, yeah, yeah, all right, Anyways, all right.
Starting point is 01:08:43 I think I'm going. What? Items. Oh, we can't see them. I have fours. Let me make sure I want to choose what I want to choose. All right, here we go. For sure, this one.
Starting point is 01:08:55 It's pretty ignorant of this permanent A-list actress who started an iconic television show to not know the product she gets paid to promote had been recalled because of pieces of plastic in it. There was the actress, though, days after the recall, happily promoting it. she is on one of the biggest shows
Starting point is 01:09:15 back in the day there's a whole conversation around whether or not it holds up because like people would... Fran Dresher Courtney Coddy Cacks
Starting point is 01:09:21 No but Corita Closorne Coddy Coddy Cod Yes Jennifer Aniston Vital Proteins It's a collagen supplement
Starting point is 01:09:28 powder that was recalled from Costco all over the country Not from the plastic shh Yes it was carried at Costco
Starting point is 01:09:35 and they recalled it for the Costco because plastic shards found of the powder God I feel like it like a vocal warm-up or something I'm doing right now. Are you both so envious of my Costco? Jesus, classic chart.
Starting point is 01:09:47 You wish you had Costco. Oh, my gosh. I am envious. I love a Costco. $1.50 hot dog. Hot dog. Oh, it's so good, man. And it's so good.
Starting point is 01:09:57 I got to go today just to get that dog. Get that dog. It's really hard. You know, and as a hot dog ambassador, I have to get the hot dog, but those chicken bakes are always, talk about showing their gams. Screaming at you.
Starting point is 01:10:08 They're just like, don't you want it? And I'm like, yes, but I can't cheat on my beloved. Yeah, I can't cheat on my one beloved. There is no way this A-Lis singer slash sometimes actress gets through the end of the year still married.
Starting point is 01:10:24 Everyone keeps talking about her husband and what he is doing. The pair haven't been together in months and is not just because she is filming the musical movie. She's also whatever and she's whatever. Arians. And Dalton Gomez. Are they Dunzo?
Starting point is 01:10:40 Who knows? She's probably very busy. Yeah, for sure, but I think he's putting his Peter in a different Jimmy Rabbit. You know what I mean? I do. You know what I mean? I literally know exactly. Oh, man, when they start putting their peter's at other Jimmy rabbits, oh, oh, I lose my
Starting point is 01:11:01 go. Oh, my gosh. You'd imagine if Jeff did that, you'd squeeze him so hard his head exploded. I mean, like, at least let me watch. Come on. Talk about a bad man and a sad man. Good Lord. My Jeffrey!
Starting point is 01:11:13 You talk about Dalton Gomez? Yeah, I think I'm talking about Dalton. Okay. Whatever, Ariana. We're all, we all know what's up. Isn't he a real estate agent? I feel like it's like something like everyone's just like, who is he? It's like nobody knows who nobody knows.
Starting point is 01:11:29 Yeah, right? Oh, Dalton. That whatever, you know what I mean? And then Ariana, you know what I mean? She's so mean. And everyone's like, oh, I love her. And it's like, Every song sounds like.
Starting point is 01:11:40 Yeah, but I'm still gonna watch her in Wicked, Holden. Holden, you're gonna tell me you're not gonna go see Wicked. I'm excited for Wicked. I'm so excited for Wicked. Yeah, yeah, for sure. I'm excited for. I just feel bad for the many whatever's that people will be hearing
Starting point is 01:11:52 in the movie audience with me that night. Well, I'll make sure I don't go see it. Every time she comes on the screen. Somebody just keeps saying whatever. Every time she comes on stage on screen. All right, this is a lot. Oh, is she back on the screen? What?
Starting point is 01:12:06 You know, everyone's just like, shut up! Little girls are crying. They wanted to have their first, like, musical movie moment, and I'm ruining it. Taylor's better. Taylor's better. Yeah, whatever.
Starting point is 01:12:21 I hope she sings the song, Man-Eater, because that's what she is. Anyways. Whoa, but she's married now. Yeah, it sounds like she's not a man-eater. Well, sounds like she's about to be divorced-ed, though, because he keeps putting his lickstick and somebody else's flick switch.
Starting point is 01:12:37 tick. You know, you stuck the landing. You stuck the landing. It's a fun day. We're going on Monday. So I need at least one weekday to warm up to the show. We're recording on a Monday morning. I just got back from Florida, so my heads all over the place.
Starting point is 01:12:54 You've got trauma. It's ridiculous. You have like trauma lines coming off for like a cartoonist group. I know. I'm Big Penn today. Just call me Big Penn. Yeah, your big pin, but it's just trauma lines instead of stink lines. It's awful.
Starting point is 01:13:07 All right, this last one makes me want to sleep until the world ends. At this point in time, the person most likely to be the Super Bowl halftime performer is the one named permanent A-List singer. He already does a residency in Vegas and is already doing a halftime show for the Raiders this season. He's also boring, in my opinion, and he is the name of a job is his name. It's the name of a job of a person. I almost said the weekend, but that's the opposite. It's the name of a person who leads things. Also, the weekend or just did.
Starting point is 01:13:40 That would be insane. Oh, my God. They're like, it's the weekend again. We're like, what? That's a horrible idea. No one liked that. Sting? Is that a job, Jackie?
Starting point is 01:13:51 Oh, yeah. I'm gonna go off. You can stink somebody. You get what the bees do. They go to work so they can sting. And they pollinate the flowers. Cop? Firefighter.
Starting point is 01:14:03 Doctor? Doctor. His song None of his songs are this But they sound like this Oh my! Don't do this again Do not do this again
Starting point is 01:14:13 Don't do this again. Don't do this again. I'm not giving you anything else They're just... I've tried as a construction worker Prince. Prince is dead. It can't be Prince.
Starting point is 01:14:23 This job would exist at like an event. They need someone to Bounder. Wader. Closer. Security guard. Close-ish. No.
Starting point is 01:14:36 Everybody's screaming. Protect her. His songs. His songs sound like, Oh, baby, munches, Suck on my toes. Security guard.
Starting point is 01:14:48 Bouncer was close. Yeah. Oh, man. Did you get the security guard tickets this weekend on? They were like a thousand bucks of fun to see security guard. Yeah, I can't wait to hear him saying,
Starting point is 01:14:58 suck on my toes. So get on your bitches. He's a big dancer. He's a big, big, good at dancer person. And he bores me to tears. And I would be so lamed out if he is the Super Bowl halftime guy. But he's, and he's from, he's been around for forever. Oh, he recently got into a fight.
Starting point is 01:15:21 Archer! Yes! I was just in my hand. I was like, what are things that you do? You must know this. You must have this in your brain somewhere. You must have something. Usher. Wow, I would not.
Starting point is 01:15:38 My brain forgot about Usher in about 2012. Right. I know because he's so boring. I really hope this isn't true. I can feel my brain is like sizzling right now. Like I haven't thought that hard in a really long time. Yeah, take the rest of the day of. You're like how chess masters feel after a tournament. Like you just lost weight because of like the-
Starting point is 01:15:57 I'm out. I got to sleep for the rest of the- mental energy that it took. Do you guys know like chess mat? Like chess masters in tournaments, they like lose weight. They think so hard. Damn. They like burn calories.
Starting point is 01:16:08 They're thinking so hard. Oh, could I start doing that instead? No, I think I'd rather go to a gym. I don't think you would be good at that. What? Yeah, apparently Miley Cyrus and Harry Styles are allegedly also in talks. Both would make a lot more sense to me. I did also see something, though, and I don't know how true this is.
Starting point is 01:16:27 I should have looked more into it, but whatever. You know what I mean? It's whatever, right? We're surfing on a Tuesday or it's a Monday or whatever. But Miley Seris, I think it was a rumor that, like they wanted her, kind of like the J-Lo thing, like they wanted her to perform with like other acts. And I think even other men,
Starting point is 01:16:41 and might even be like Harry, maybe even Usher. And she was like, I, I refuse to do that. My fans deserve more than that. If you want to have me in the Super Bowl, it's just me.
Starting point is 01:16:51 And it's like, it's like borderline disrespectful to like lump me in with, with other acts. Like, I'm ready for this. If I was Miley Cyrus and it'd be like, do you want to co-headline with Usher? I'd be like, excuse me?
Starting point is 01:17:03 Like, fuck no. I've been more relevant than him for a decade. Yeah, yeah. It's just, I don't know what is true with that. But also, Harry Styles could easily carry a Super Bowl. Oh, yeah. Fine. Sounds like they're kind of floundering, though, a little bit.
Starting point is 01:17:18 I mean, and listen, Usher had some great hits. Don't get me wrong. It just, he just is not, like, I wouldn't really consider him right now a contemporary artist, unless I'm wrong. I would be so bored by that. Because even when he was big, I was not super into Usher. I would be so fucking bored. I mean, you'd get some really good dancing, but I would just, I have no interest.
Starting point is 01:17:39 Can you, can you name a hit off the top of your head? I never really listened to Usher. Oh, my God. Burr, bur, bur, remember that? Like, I was like, oh my gosh. You know this one. I was like. To do you know.
Starting point is 01:17:58 I, I mean, yeah. Yeah. But that's also with, you know, ludicrous and Liljohn. Right. Yeah. A lot. Oh, I love a little John. Or honestly, either of them, I would actually be like, you know what?

He's always just like there. Yeah, I think that that's fair. Even his hits, I enjoyed them, but it wasn't like, I can't wait to listen to Usher, you know. Sorry, Usher. Yeah, it's just not my vibe.

First self-shout goes out to Joya. Joya says, I wanted to send a quick self-shout. It's been a year this month since me and my Greyhound Niles, yes, after Niles Crane, moved back to New York City. We got out of an extremely toxic long relationship last year that lasted way too long, that we felt trapped in because of the pandemic and having to leave the city and everything I worked for to hide out with them in upstate New York. Now I've been back working full time as a hair and makeup swing on four Broadway shows for a year. I now have done two Tony Award broadcasts, one with a strange loop and one with
Starting point is 01:24:26 Sweenie Todd. Niles and I got our own one-bedroom apartment in Queens, and we are finally free and feeling healthy and good. I'm reunited with my best friends, and I'm now with a really special guy who loves and truly values me, and came with me to see Release the Butthole Cut Tour in Brooklyn and was the best sport having never listened to Page 7 before. Listening to you, Jackie, gave me comfort in my lowest levels and showed me I too could finally get out of a toxic relationship and make big moves. So much love to everyone at LPN, especially you,
Starting point is 01:25:05 and especially you, Joya. Oh my God. Thank you so much for writing and congratulations for taking your life back. Oh my God, it's so hard to do. I'm so happy for you. And oh, congratulations and please give Niles little kisses for me. Oh, yes. And we have another.
Starting point is 01:25:24 amazing self-shout going out to Cameron. Cameron says this week, I want to send myself a shout-out. I have been vaping for the last six years, seven, eight, it was so long that I've lost track. I've tried quitting many times before and have never been able to get through the first few days. My mood swings would get really, really dark and I always caved to get some relief. This year, I made it a goal to quit, to finally stop for good. I told my doctor how hard it had been to try in the past and finally asked for help. She was amazing and we figured out a plan together. I am so excited to say that it's been three weeks since I trashed all my vaping supplies
Starting point is 01:26:08 and started nicotine patches. This morning I found one in the couch with a half full cartridge and I threw it out without a second thought. This has gotten very long. No, it hasn't Cameron. I appreciate you. So I'll just end with saying, I'm so proud of myself and so happy to finally get rid of this crutch.
Starting point is 01:26:26 Oh my God, Karen. So much love to you. I know how difficult it is. And you did it and you're killing it. And you know, if any setbacks that you have, it's okay too. Just keep moving forward. It doesn't destroy what you've already done. You've already accomplished so much.
Starting point is 01:26:45 So happy for you. So proud of you. Now we've got our last shout out. And this goes out to a very special person. This is coming in from Dill. And this is going out to Diner Gould. Now, Dill says, we're coming up on my illustrious partner's birthday this Tuesday, June 20th. That's right, one day before your Portland show.
Starting point is 01:27:09 I am so happy to have scored some tickets for us to see you. Hell yeah, Dill. There's so much I want to share here, but in honor of time, I'll try my best to cram it in. I had an operation in mid-May, and going under Antibank, anesthesia ended up triggering so much that I had a severe manic episode. This sent my voluntary ass to the ER and psychiatric hospital. I had been going all my life with zero knowledge that I was bipolar. Years and years of coping and battling demons in my own head finally landed me here on the other side, medicated and doing great so far.
Starting point is 01:27:44 No stigma. The thing is, my partner has been holding down the fort during all of this messy, mental mishap. While worrying about me and supporting me, they took care of our home, two jobs, our three pets, and more, all with absolutely zero expectation of recognition or praise. I feel like they deserve that and much more. While I have such a big birthday week planned for them, I just know with all that's going on, a shout out from some of their favorite people in entertainment would light up their entire sky! To give you some insight on this wonderful, orderful ghoul. They are a selfless, bright star of a human being with an affinity for tattooing,
Starting point is 01:28:28 movie monsters, set design, justice, humor, illustration, and video games. Zelda, anyone? This most recent episode Self-Shouters inspired me to reflect and remember that I'm worth so much as well, especially when doing such tremendous work to lift myself back into the real world and seize my life fully with a new mind. In all this gobbledygook, I'd really love the opportunity to shout out both my partner, Dinergoor, and I for lifting each other up for over five years and counting, and especially for sticking together through this hellish time with the ultimate glue made of love, friendship, and diligence. I hope to make this birthday one of the most special they have ever had. Both of us are so excited to laugh and cry with you all on Wednesday and maybe even
Starting point is 01:29:21 do another viewing of cats. Yes, I own it on Blu-ray. Y'all want to come over? Oh my God, please, Dill. I'm ready to watch it from the beginning. Thank you so much for this opportunity to say hello and share our story. Thank you, thank you for all the fun and hard work you continue to put into this. Love Dill. Thank you so much, Dill, for writing in, and I can't wait to see you on Wednesday. I know by the time this comes out, we'll have already seen each other, and that's going to be amazing, too. And I want to say, ah, happiest of birthdays to you, Diner Gould? And happiest of birthdays to all our Gemini, cancer, cuspers out there. And I want to say thank you again so much to you guys for writing in to page 7 podcast at
