He's already ready.
Eddie's on list.
All right, let's start to do the list.
No, we're not starting with the list yet.
We're starting with Tay.
Because I'm a real tough kid.
I can handle my shit.
They said, baby, gotta fake it till you make it.
And I did.
Lights, camera, bitch, smile.
Even when you wanna die.
He said, he'd love me all my life.
And he didn't.
Did he?
He didn't.
Did they?
Yeah, right?
It's Tay's weak, Eddie, all right?
Okay.
A couple of blokes.
She gets a couple weeks a year, though.
Yeah, she gets months.
She has months.
Let's be honest.
Let's be real.
And let's be real.
The only lists are so annoyed right now because they're like,
Holden, we can't.
All right, we have to hold on the Tay talk because Ed Larson,
from the brighter side and last podcast on the left is here with us today.
How you doing, Eddie?
And how much do you hate Taylor Swift?
I don't, you know what it is?
It's just, she's not for me, but I don't hate anybody.
If you can please refer to her as the Bob Dylan of our time, moving forward.
Whoa.
Well, I don't.
She's not even the Robert Zimmerman of our time.
I listened to Fortnite this morning.
It took me a fortnight to get through it.
Oh, my God.
This actually was great.
Having Edon is perfect.
How did Beyonce write a better country album?
I do love Cowboy Carter.
I will say this.
It's good.
Having Ed on was probably great for the anti-Tay folks.
in the chat, just because you're naturally
roasty, and, you know, and I'm here for
it at the same time, uh,
because I get it, you know what I mean?
Yeah. I feel like this is an album for
the Swifties. You know what I mean?
Certainly not for everyone else. It's not for everyone else.
It's really not.
It's my
yeah.
Yes. Can we just say it out the gate?
Out the gate. Out the gate.
It is on the whole.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Heart's always broken.
Yeah. That's the beauty of.
Sorry, Jackie.
This is not going to be screaming the entire time.
You're right.
You're not going to be screaming the entire time.
I'm glad you're in between us.
I'm just glad you're in between us as a buffer too.
I'm the buffered.
I'm the buffered.
I would have physically attack him.
I know you do.
So I have to be the Tay in the middle and I'll be the Tay in the middle, all right?
Just like the monkey in the middle who bites.
Hell yeah.
So you better watch out everyone.
I don't hate Taylor Swift.
I think that she is a great songwriter.
I'm just, you know what, I've really, as I've gotten older,
my hate for things have started to like extinct.
It goes away.
You know, like, it's just like, I can't, who am I?
It's like, it's like the fucking voice of a generation.
You know, it's like, so it's not for, I, it's not my generation, you know, so it's not for me.
But like, it's obviously unbelievable if everyone likes it this much.
And so I'm not here for it, but I'm glad it exists.
I know.
By the way, I would say this, all this coming from the guy who just saw fish for like the 10th time.
It's live.
But I saw him at this fear.
Man, did they have the TV
was so big.
Yeah, dude.
It was the TV on the outside of the stadium.
What was your favorite part of the sphere?
Like, what image did you see that you were like,
this is outstanding?
In the midst of the mountains,
they did this thing where it was just like rolling,
like you were walking through like misty mountains
and like trees and the trees kept like flowering
and then turning into fireworks.
And they just kept going past you.
I mean, I ate a bunch of mushrooms.
Yeah.
You got to.
It was so.
Did you start, like, jerking off and stuff?
No, I did that later.
Okay.
But I was on a bunch of mushrooms.
Yeah.
Well, I like to flaccidly just kind of, you know, yank on it like a monkey.
Yeah.
What was the last time you actually were hard during masturbation?
The,
but the, you know, the fish concert was so cool.
I had such an amazing time.
You know, I will say, I, fish is like fifth memory.
is their lighting guy.
And so, like, because this was all screens,
he kind of had nothing to do.
Uh-huh.
And so, like, to be on,
not to, like, I really loved it.
It was unbelievable.
Um, I would totally go back to the sphere.
But, like, I was just like,
oh, the lighting guy's got nothing to do
because it's all, like, graphics.
Wait, so there's no lasers in the sphere?
A little bit, not much.
Wow.
It would take away from the sphere.
And that's all, that's all just hired assassins
that are just there to take people out one by one.
Oh, my God.
Dude, anytime I saw,
anyone spark a joint.
It was like 11 seconds before someone was ripping it.
I was going to ask about that because I was like, man,
that's either going to be cool as shit in that dome or not cool.
No, it's Vegas.
They don't want you smoking anywhere like that.
And I will go back to this fear.
I think it was cool.
But like I think it'll be better in like a couple years.
I think you're still figuring out the technology.
Okay.
Because like some of the things just felt like you were like living inside of Winamp.
You know?
Right.
I saw one screenshot.
It was just like dots moving around.
And it was cool.
The dots were big.
and they were flying over my head.
You know, but like they spent a lot of money on a couple,
and I appreciate that.
But I think in years to come, it's going to get even cooler.
But so I say if you're going to go to, if you're going to sphere,
go sphere in 2026.
All right.
This is good to know.
Yeah.
Because it's expensive.
I had a great music week, by the way.
I know.
That's why I was so excited to have you on, but you didn't go to Coachella.
You were in Vegas.
No chella.
Yeah, no Chola.
Yeah, yeah.
Which, you know what else I missed during Coachella,
which is my favorite part of Coachella?
Chella is I'd never been.
Me neither.
Being in L.A. because it's
two weeks, the week in between
all the bands come do secret shows
in L.A. Yeah. And I got to see
some really cool stuff over the years because of that.
Hell yeah. But you know what? I did see
this on Thursday,
which was one of the coolest things I ever saw.
Green Day, at
the Echoplex, 700 people.
It was a warm-up for their new
tour, and they played all of
of Duky and all of American Idiot
all of the new album. And it was so,
cool. That's awesome.
That tiny ass room. It was
nuts, man. Have you been to a concert
every day for the last week and
a half? I did five days in a row.
I called the Julie Fest.
We did all five. And then we saw the B-52s.
And then I saw this weird band named
Kirkos. They were ever fucking cool at this place called
Fat Cat. And I thought I was seeing jazz. It was just
weird, psychedelic rock. And then
RuPaul Drag Race at the Flamingo, which
was awesome. How was that?
Dude, first of all? Was it a live
like, show, like taping?
No, no, no, no.
They do it every night, and it's like the show,
the show, I think, stays the same.
They just rotate the cast.
Okay.
And the host, Asia, I don't remember anyone's fake last names.
The, but Asia, she was unbelievable.
The host, like, was killing it.
Trying to remember the, I think I know you're talking about,
but they just had the finale for the newest season.
I, like a week ago, I just watched it last night.
It was fantastic, but, I mean.
The Britney Spears impersonator was there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Did she have knife dancing?
Yeah, yeah, they were selling knives afterwards.
That makes sense because she was doing that in Vegas before she did the show.
Yeah, she was like Brittany.
I think she just lives in Vegas.
Yeah, I think she's.
And then who else did it?
I wish I can't remember everyone's name because I'm not like a huge RuPaul fan, but Julia's.
But the, there was the English Lawrence, Lawrence Cheney was unbelievable.
And there was another one that was just could do flips like crazy.
Kennedy.
Kennedy.
Hell yeah.
Yeah.
It was a good cast.
That's kind of the crazy thing about drag race is like it's so versatile.
There's like, I've seen stand up that I think is as good as any of the most the pros out there.
Yeah.
I've seen acrobatics.
You see just you see it all.
Like you see the whole gamut.
You know what I mean?
Incredible physical stuff impersonations.
Yeah.
It's like vaudeville almost in this like updated way.
You know what I mean?
As a host, I was so impressed by Asia's.
hosting abilities. The jokes were on point.
Great crowd work.
Hell yeah. Like kept the show moving. And the costume
changes. So fast.
It's so insane.
That's awesome. I know they must, I mean, they must
spend 30 grand on costumes.
It's crazy. It's wild. Yeah, yeah. I've seen
a bunch. I just love that
Last Pagas of the Left is going through like a drag
renaissance. What the fuck is happening?
It's so crazy. Like, Vargas and Hidreterer
watching the show. I came to it very late. Yeah, they're
in late, but come on in. The water's warm.
It's nice over here. No, it's not a gatekey.
It's a fun. It's a fun. It's great. You know.
It's kind of cool to come in late because then you have like a wealth of shit to watch.
Oh, yeah.
It's so much shit. And, you know, the only thing is I'm a little overwhelmed by it because, like, I don't have enough time in the day to watch, like, the talk back show they do and all the extra stuff they do.
And, like, you know, I can't keep up with like every facet. I mean, there's, everyone has a fucking music video and like a song they're known for and all this.
Which is amazing, by the way. I think it's one of the greatest things that.
that a show is done for the community
is give them their own music.
Yeah. And so now they all walk away
with their own song that they can take on the road
and put it on Spotify and it's fucking amazing.
We should definitely listen to all that music
as a friend of ours. Ash Gordon is
one of the writers of most of the big songs for drag queens.
And so, and she works very,
she also wrote Drag the Musical,
which you should check out if it ever comes to. It's so much fun.
And it's so fun to watch it. Just like,
I've talked to her before about just like how they
that they get together and brainstorm.
Like she gets together with the drag queens
to work on what they
kind of genre they want to work in,
how they want to be presenting themselves.
And it just sounds like so much fun.
Yeah, no, I bet it's amazing.
But I'm down with the crew.
I love the roasty culture.
Yeah, that's the thing.
The reading, all the reading stuff,
I was wondering if you were going to catch on to that too.
I mean, that stuff's so cool.
I would love to, you know, not that they need my help,
but I would love to write.
Right for that.
Yeah, yeah.
For sure.
And every season of Drag Race, there's a reading part where they just fucking rip each other to shreds,
but they're screaming with laughter.
Yeah.
Like, the culture of that is incredibly cool to me and, like, impressive to be.
Whereas I feel like all the straits are too sensitive.
I wouldn't be able to hang.
Yeah.
I would just be like, stop, please.
Oh, no.
Don't say it.
Check you're a bitch.
No.
I'm bash you and I whip you.
That's fine.
I know I'm a bitch.
I'm a proud bitch.
Thank you very much.
Yeah.
And I guess Tay is a bit of a proud bitch when it comes to her writing.
her music for this one. Now, we
talked a lot about how
this album with his tiny British
penis was going to be about Joe Alwyn.
So for Eddie, and for those of you that don't
know and or do not care, she was
dating Joe Alwyn. That was the latest breakup.
Okay. And he is...
He is a British actor
who was very boring. He was a
borrower. He kept the bird in a cage.
He wants to keep her away
from the spotlight. He wanted their
relationship to be private. He wanted her
to be with him.
Well, that's not what she does.
That's not who she is.
Well, here's the thing.
But then.
Well, I was going to say, here's the thing with that.
Because people always want to say, like, oh, he like kept her.
When they met, she wanted to be in a cage.
She went totally black on social media.
No, it was all, yes, it was perfectly time with COVID.
But right before that, it was reputation.
She went off of social media.
She became a pariah.
And she wanted to be away from the spotlight.
He was perfect for her when they met.
And he was perfect for her through pandemic.
But she changed, Eddie.
She changed.
She changed.
She changed.
She went back.
Then everyone was like, we love you again.
Come out of your egg.
And she was like, c'c-g-g-a-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-cc!
And she was covered in goo.
Yeah, covered in, oh.
No one's even wiped it off yet.
I don't know why.
She's just slithering around.
But there's a different bloke involved.
Isn't there, Jack?
Maddie, he-ee.
Or we can call him ratty-mealy, who is the person on The Sims this morning playing with MJ.
Oh.
We did have him burn to death.
Wow.
So because he broke her heart.
Fucker.
Yeah.
He broke her heart.
She's fine.
She's doing great.
Oh, yeah, she's doing great.
She's doing great.
She's fucking a football player.
She's doing great.
Now she's fucking Mr.
Football.
When is that going to end?
I want that album out.
I don't know.
I might not end.
I'm feeling good about this one.
I don't know.
But that's the thing.
Blue 42.
She's already been made.
By the way, I made the joke that she was,
I made the joke she was going to put out like I'm fucking a football player.
Is there like next?
album after this breakup one, but like she's already making like football references.
There is a song in the double album. I didn't make it. I didn't, I just want everyone know.
I listened to it by the way. Thank you for doing that. I didn't really listen to the lyrics.
Right, right. But I had it on while I, you know, got up this morning. Totally. Well, what are you going to do?
You're going to sit down and fucking read it. Yeah. I mean, you're not at Swifty. That's what the Swifties do.
That's what we do. And they pull it all apart because that's the whole thing is the Swifties thought this
whole album was going to be about Joe, but turns out it's like half and half about Joe.
and half about Maddie Healy.
And Maddie Healy's from the 1975.
We don't like him.
Not even just, but we didn't like it before this.
I definitely don't like that their music.
I think he's fine.
He's a piece of shit too.
So like, and everyone was like, Taylor,
stop being with him.
But turns out, which Holden informed me of,
because I was like, man,
she writes this whole album about this dude
she was with for two months, but turns out,
apparently they had been like an on-off thing.
It's been like 2014 or something.
They'd been sort of.
So she was like,
cheating on her other boyfriends with him.
Maybe, or at least he was, he's kind of who she, yeah.
Well, the jailbreak song is totally her, like, I just got out of my thing.
You're the first person I'm calling.
Like, he's that guy, and he was always that, like, the reason.
He's that guy.
I think that everyone has had, or that person in their life,
and you're like, the rebound or just the person that you're like,
I got to get over someone.
Can you come over?
Can you come over?
Can you come over?
Yeah, I think that in your 20s, I think everybody's kind of got somebody like that, right?
Or also, yeah.
I don't want them to be the last person I fucked anymore.
Yes.
Did you mind helping me out?
Please get the cobwebs out.
And the other thing, people were like, I can't believe, like,
they were only together for a fortnight.
And, like, I can't believe that, like...
Two weeks?
I mean, that's kind of what the songs kind of say.
Well, well, together, together.
But, like, it was always, like, in the air.
I'm sure they hooked up or had romantic notions up until that point.
But the thing was when people were like,
I can't believe he was only with him for this short amount of time.
And she would write so many songs about it.
But it's like, dude, I dated a chick for, like, a month
that I thought about for, like, the next,
five years. Oh yeah. Oh, there's
some flings that I still think about
every once in a while. The ones that, like, get away, you almost,
it's kind of like the monster you can't see.
It's like the relationship that could have been.
You almost think about that more than the one
you were in and processed everything, right?
And I love that. I really connect
with that element of the album. I think
this is the thing. People are definitely going in
on the album. It's getting like varying review
scores, right? It's getting all over the...
It's all over the... I feel like I read one article
and it's just like, worst album she's ever written.
And then another one's like, but her heart.
Heart is open, don't you see?
I mean, honestly, mixed reviews to me is always the sign of a great album.
That's the thing.
I'm really into it.
I was trying to let the hate in a little bit because I don't want to just drink the
collade.
I don't want to just be like...
No, me neither.
She can do no wrong, yada, yada, yada, yada.
Right?
For a little bit, I was kind of like, oh, maybe I am just drinking the Kool-Aid and just
that's the way it is for me.
But no, I've listened to it a couple more times.
And I'm like, no, I really fucking like this.
I really like this, but it's in a totally different way.
It's kind of the same way as like Evermore.
Honestly, like my favorite time to listen to Evermore
is when I'm prepping and cooking food for Thanksgiving.
It's a vibe, moody.
That's like more of her like folks.
She would do this like folk indie phase.
And that's what got me into Taylor Swift.
So that's what, because like I never really cared.
And then I started listening to Folk more and Evermore.
It's like, oh, I like this vibe.
I have listened to every album at least once.
Wow.
Hell yeah.
Just for Holden.
Yeah, I get that.
I've literally done it because you care so much.
I read Dune to understand Henry better.
I think we should all do that for each other.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We all need to experience.
I'm not reading Dune.
I won't do it.
I won't do it.
I'm not doing it either.
Yeah, so the movies.
The movies is fine.
Yeah, movies are right.
And I had a picnic with a bear to get you better.
You know what I mean?
That's right.
I miss him.
I miss him.
I told Rick you said hello, by the way.
I told him you said hello.
Where is my picnic fast?
On Wizard and the Bruiser,
we find all those crazy little moments.
moments in geek history that made the things we love into inescapable cultural behemates.
If you love video games, movies, comics, and anime, this is the LPN show for you.
But wait, Holden, it's not just educational.
Shouldn't we talk about all those crazy boner jokes we make all the time?
No, Jake.
No, we will not.
Fair enough.
Last Podcast Network presents Wizard and the Bruiser.
Find it on your favorite podcast app and hit that little subby-dubby button.
Oh, we would love it if you did that.
Oh, that would help us out so much.
God, wouldn't you love to do that?
Don't I sound like the kind of person you want to help?
Like, hit the button.
Like, just do it.
But yeah, I'm really taking.
I can do it with a broken heart, really.
That's the song that captured my heart
because the whole song is about, like,
how she was ripped apart by these men,
and she still had this insane tour to do.
So the whole song is her like, yeah, man,
that's where it's like, get ready, bitch smile.
Like, get out there, like, no matter what,
I can fucking do it.
And I love this song.
Yeah.
And that's the only song too
that's like anywhere close to a bop.
And that's kind of the problem.
There's no bop.
The problem with for people is like,
there's no dance song,
it's summer coming up.
Yeah.
What are you doing?
Yeah.
That's really,
exactly what I said.
When I first heard the album,
I was like,
not my vibe right now,
but it's because like I'm wanting to wear like summer dresses.
And I want like,
it's more like the Charlie XXX vibe.
Yes.
Or like other music that's out.
You know,
it's like that kind of or the Kim Petris
You ever listen to Cigarettes and Sex?
Oh, yeah.
So good. Yeah, but that's also fun and moody, right?
Yeah, that is a little moody.
I think that this album is going to, like, be the summer album, the first, your first rainy day.
Yes.
You know, like, this is going to, this is going to hit for that.
Or when fall hits, when we start getting into the gloomier, it's going to, like, resurge.
Oh, that's what she's going to, you know, start doing her jock jams album.
Totally, totally.
But, yes, the big, the big.
Well, honestly, it is.
Yeah, dude, next album will probably be called fucking jock jams.
Like, seriously, it's going to be, I'm hoping for Lover Part 2.
I'm hoping for I'm fucking a big fun football player and it's going to be this big party.
I mean, I don't know if you saw the footage of them like partying at Coachella.
I mean, she's partying.
They're having a good time.
They're partying.
Also, I heard tale, of course, this is just probably bullshit.
But, like, I don't know if you saw the videos or the pictures, the millions of pictures of them at Coachella.
And the reason, and we talked about it on the show that was like, why were they out in the audience?
apparently, and I think that this is something
that came from Travis Kelsey's podcast
is that he loves
to go see live music.
That's the whole thing.
And so when apparently he was like,
I don't want to be backstage.
I want to be in the audience
where the fans watch the music.
They also had a team of assassins around them.
But still, you wouldn't expect to see Taylor Swift
just in the audience.
Bird set of a cage of ice spice right in front of them
smoking a blunt.
I mean, it's fun.
You know, I really, I like ice.
Ice. I'm not good on the music for Ice Ice Ice Ice Vice.
Me neither. I like her vibe. I'm like the vibe more and more. Yeah, yeah.
You know what song? Obviously did it for me on this album. I was very proud of. Which one?
Florida. I knew. I knew. I am blasting that track every time I go to Florida to visit Lexis and
it makes sense. Everyone's running from something. I've always said these things about Florida.
Yeah. I've always like everyone's like they're there. It's the end of the world community.
Everyone's going down there because they're running from something. I was so excited.
to hear that song and when that
dun dun dun dun kicks in I'm like
this is what it feels like to go there
I have to go there at least once a year to
visit Lexus family in Jacksonville
and it feels like that song
it's got a griminess to it
I mean Florence with Machines fucking whaling
kills it on that track
and so many people were really hating
on Florida and I feel like the people that were hating on
Florida aren't from Florida
I love it just because it's like
I've got some regrets I'll bury
them in Florida I need to forget
So take me to Florida.
Tell me I'm despicable.
Say it's unforgivable.
What a crash, what a rush.
Fuck me up Florida.
She's like going to Destin and shit.
Yeah, dude.
Fuck me up Florida is the, that's the mantra right there.
Like, that's what it is to go there.
I will also say that the real, like, kind of behind the scenes of that is Florida was her first show
after the breakup was announced.
Oh.
So that's why it's like, like it was the trip right between Texas and Florida.
Also, though, the people are saying, and I agree with this, that he's,
they say that I was living, I was a guest in a house I didn't belong in or something like that.
That was Joe and the time sharing, Destin, Dustin, that's Maddie.
It's a song about her like going and fucking around and like getting freed of this kind of ghost
house she was living in and then going in, you know, just kind of, yeah, getting fucked up by
Maddie and getting pounded, dude.
Pounded. Slammed by that guy. This is where I, you know, Eddie, I don't identify as a
Swifty because like this is where I
really get lost in the sauce. But you're close to
it though. I'm close to it but here's the thing
Ed she's a Swifty she's just in a deep
denial. No because what the Swifties are doing is now they're going back
twice
only twice only twice
but the whole thing
is that like I forgot what I was saying
you both derailed my brain
Florida everyone's saying
oh that it's a bad song
I already said that
I enjoyed it.
Thank you.
I never remember Rosé.
I was never really, you know, I feel like I hate that I'm such a huge music fan,
but I feel like I keep saying I don't like things this episode and I feel bad.
I was never a Florence and Machine fan either.
And that was, but she, you know, as an undeniable beautiful voice.
But yeah, I loved it for this song.
And she eats on stage, too.
If you haven't seen her live, like you got a, she literally eats.
She has a big burger.
No, no, no, it's the slang people use now.
Oh, okay.
She eats on stage.
She's fucking crazy.
She takes the whole stage over.
She's like dancing all time.
That voice is that voice.
While eating cheeseburgers, which is very difficult to do.
Honestly, if she did eat cheeseburgers, I would have heard about it by now.
And I would have been there.
Well, I'm so sorry for having you lose your train of thought.
But I will say, yeah, I think Florida's, like, for me a big standout.
I think I get the people saying, like, every song sounds the same.
But I also just think that, like, I don't know, I saw a really good statement of, like,
Like if she made like a big crazy music choice,
people would criticize a way to criticize her for that.
If she made this album.
Oh, people are going to criticize her.
You know, it's kind of doesn't matter what she does.
And I do think that like this is her most like direct communication to her audience.
Yeah.
And by the way, I fucking love people are giving shit too to the line about the like calling
fans of hers Vipers who like act in fake compassion.
I totally resonate with that.
I mean, there's even names
I would love to, like, stay into a mic right now,
but like I can't.
I'll tell you guys off, Mike.
But like, I've seen so many fucking times
being like, I'm just concerned about you.
That's why I'm talking all this shit about you
and throwing you under the bus.
That's what it is.
That's why I'm not a Swifty.
It's because I don't rip apart
every aspect of her life
because now what they're doing is that like,
don't you see, she was saying
that she was going to be doing all of this all along.
Look toward the braids.
Look at the colors she was with.
wearing on this one day when she walked into a coffee shop.
It must be because of the album.
She created that, yeah.
I know she did.
Isn't it kind of her fault?
That's what I'm saying.
That's why I don't say I'm a Swifty because I don't care that much.
You're not playing back the tapes.
I don't care.
I like the music.
I like to listen to music.
I like to watch her perform.
I think it's kind of fun.
You know what her hairstyle says?
She bangs.
Yeah.
Is that what it says?
Wait, I don't know if that's true.
What even song is that?
Is that from?
Well, no, her hairstyle, because she has bangs.
Yeah, I know, I know.
So she's bangs.
She bangs.
I immediately started like, she bangs, she bangs.
Yeah, I was thinking she bangs.
Oh, baby, got she moves.
Yeah, I was thinking of that.
Yeah, no, no, my jokes are very surface, right?
We're looking for the, this is the problem.
Maybe I am a Swifty.
I was looking for the intermediate.
Now, it is very funny that, of course, Bette is always in on the joke.
We've been calling this album, Dead Poet Society,
because it is a long name
and who gives a fuck
about the name of this album.
But of course, Tay, always in on the joke,
released Fortnite the music video
starring Ethan Hawk and Josh Charles
who were both in the Dead Poets Society,
which... I love that.
I mean, as we kept jokingly calling the album
the Dead Poet Society
because we couldn't remember the name of the album.
So I cannot believe that she actually put
the actors from it.
So at least she knows, too,
that the album should have been called
the Dead Poet Society.
Why didn't she call it that?
It would have been so cool.
Because that's not the name of the chat
that Joe Alwyn was in, Holden.
Oh, my God.
I don't think she's tortured, by the way.
No.
I think she's just good at funneling her shit,
her life into song.
Yeah.
That's her talent.
That's what she does.
You know, and, and, uh, she,
but I like that.
I like the over-traumatics, right?
Like, that's why I like, like, people, you know,
I think some, I think sometimes people might question, like,
why I would be so into the Olivia Rodriguez
like 19 year old girl breakup album
you know what I mean I like
I just bought it for Julie it's great
it's great well the newer one's great and I'm even talking about
her first album sour and then guts is also awesome
it's surprisingly hard yeah it's like a pop punk
album isn't it fun it's cool and I love I love her stuff
and it's like because I've heard other sentiments of like
I can't believe like you know anybody older than a certain age like would be
of this. I'm like, I loved when life was that over the top. I miss when life was so extreme and
you had these big feelings, heartbreak. I still remember those feelings. I don't get like that anymore,
but like I remember like, oh man, I was all fucked up about so and so, you know, like, and it still
like lives in my brain. It's awesome. Like that was so, because those were memorable times in your
life. Like, going through a really bad breakup, life was so, I've never felt like more in the
moment than going through like an extreme breakup.
You know what I mean?
And finding yourself again.
And I feel like that's why it's ridiculous when people talk to young people that's like,
you don't understand love.
You're not in love or saying that.
It's like they're feeling it for the first time.
That's what you feel at the hardest.
It's why we're obsessed with.
What are you talking about?
Juliet.
It's that overdramatic teen, just wild love that would make you act so crazy as to fucking
maybe the problem is that you're out of love.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Turn it back around.
That's what we're talking about.
Turn it back around.
So what?
They don't understand anything about shit.
You know?
Yeah.
But also to all the people who think the album sucks,
please continue to get that out there.
I need these ticket prices to go down.
Please drive her and decide that she sucks and all.
Reputation, man, I came in at the most deceiving time.
It was so easy to get a great seat at that arena tour.
You should feel honored that you had it.
Yes.
got to do it. Also, you know what you should feel honored about is y'all went and saw
Chappel Rone in that fucking small lady. That's never going to happen again.
We saw Chappel Rone. She was right in front of us. We were right in front of the stage.
Like, that's crazy. Crazy. Because Chaperone, which I'm so happy that she is exploding right now.
Unbelievable. I'm so you got me into her. And I was like, I haven't stopped. The tiny desk
was amazing. That was great. Was that tiny dust? I got the vinyl too. I got the like special
edition vinyl on that record, too. It's awesome.
It's really good.
So much fun.
How was her Coachella set?
So good,
I thought you had seen that.
I thought that's what you were commenting on.
I just know she played.
I didn't watch any of the Coachella shit.
She's fucking blowing up.
Like that set,
she like increased her followers by like thousands.
Oh,
many, many, many.
She's blowing up.
She deserves it.
She's unbelievable.
Great.
What a talent.
It's so fun to watch it and just make me,
it makes me feel like an old person.
I'm like, what a young talent she is.
Oh, I'm going to interrupt that.
Shining on the stage.
But speaking of Coachella, I know that you didn't get a chance to, I guess, watch the Grimes performance.
Okay, watch that.
Well, I watched all the mistakes.
Isn't that so, wasn't that so funny?
We talked about it last week.
A lot. But, like, I mean, all right.
So I, here's where I go.
Sorry, she just kept doing that.
I mean, who knows what happened?
None of us know what happened.
But, like, whenever I see shit like that and, like, online hate and all that shit,
it's like, how much is it her fault?
Like, they, like, first of all, they're making her do a DJ set.
Does she do these often?
Yes.
Yeah.
I also didn't know that she was a DJ.
Apparently she is a DJ.
What I will say about it is I do think actually, I mean, she explained what happened.
She like didn't double check everything.
She had other.
They should have had a sound check.
She had other people.
Well, she didn't rehearse.
She had other people like set her shit up.
Got a rehearse.
Check it.
And she didn't have a backup.
And honestly, that's the part where that's amateur time.
If you're doing a DJ's like that, you have to have a back, just a full-on backup.
Bare minimum.
Have a thumb drive with your songs on it so you could press play.
and they figure out how to fix what's going on, right?
Yeah.
That was her mistake, but I will say she also for week two,
she was like, there's never been a more rehearsed crime set in my life.
This is going to, you know.
How was it?
She was completely solid.
Like, she made sure, sure, sure, she wasn't going to find.
And I like that.
You know what?
I respect that about her at least.
She took her licks.
Yeah.
Because I think Frank Ocean, even, like, didn't do the second week.
Because it was essentially the Frank Ocean Award of this year,
because last year his was the crazy set.
Remember there was supposed to be like roller skaters and shit.
It was like a disaster.
Man, they always try.
So, all right.
Can I tell a story about a music festival I went to in 2008?
Yeah, please.
I went to Bonneroo in 2008.
So did I.
I think this was before we did.
No, no, no, no.
You went in 2006.
Oh, that's right, 2006.
Holden and I went 2007.
And then I went to 2008.
I'm older than I remember.
Yeah, yeah.
And then so I remember, yeah,
you were one of the reasons I wanted to go to Bonarro.
Hell yeah.
But so when I was,
when I went, the headliner was Pearl Jam
and then they did an amazing show and they ran like an hour over
and it was cool on the main stage.
And then after them was Kanye.
And he was supposed to start at midnight.
But Pearl Jam didn't end to like 1115 or something
when they were supposed to end at like 1030.
Oh God.
And so Kanye's flipping out and he's got this ridiculous show.
It's when he was doing like his all fluorescent puppet show.
And he was doing that whole thing.
And then I remember, so everyone's sticking around after
Pearl Jam, you know, midnight comes.
Kanye's not on stage.
She's still setting up. And then the 1 o'clock comes, he's not on stage.
2 o'clock, 3 o'clock, 4 o'clock.
I remember, man. I remember reading all about it.
He didn't come on stage to like 5.30.
Yeah. And then the sun started to come up and all of his glow in the dark shit didn't
work. Oh, my God.
And so everyone was just leaving and tired and mad and people missed half a Sunday because
they were trying to stay up for Kanye. And he just shit the bed the whole time.
I remember that fiasco.
He was literally just like cursing into the microphone the whole time.
It was like, but it was his own damn fault because he tried to bring a hundred puppets to fucking Bonnarum.
It's like, just do this fucking show.
I mean, it's all the stuff that keeps coming up too.
Madonna is getting hit with another lawsuit.
Twice lawsuit because she starts her show so late.
Yes, I'm into it.
I like it.
I like suing her, not.
The being late part.
I just, it's a diva.
And she's like, if you're a Madonna fan,
you should know better.
But it's like, no, man, you're Madonna.
You have an obligation.
To be four hours late to start a show.
Come on.
All your fans are in their 50s and 40s.
Can we get them home, please?
They're asleep.
I always talk about it.
That's why I love Miseducation of Lauren Hill.
I do not like the artist.
She embraces showing up hours and hours late every single show.
Every show.
I can't believe people still go to her shows.
I think it's disrespectful when like, if we're just having like a meeting or just
like friends meeting up,
gonna be hours late, yeah.
That's gonna be a problem.
And I get it because people suing to, I believe,
were like parents or whatever.
And it was like, dude, it's like.
Yeah, they gotta go home.
They spent so much money.
And concert tickets are now a suable offense.
It's like they spent 60 bucks each.
They're fucking thousands of dollars in some cases, you know.
And so to show up that late.
And you're not just had the babysitter, you know,
and all that shit.
You've played your life around this, this night.
Totally.
It's like for like, you plan months ahead.
Yeah.
For people who don't go to concerts that often.
You know, so yeah, it's fucked up.
My friend was at the concert in Jersey, and I was texting with her.
And I was like, why, it's so late, why are you texting with me?
She's like, oh, I just got out of Madonna.
She was four hours late.
Jesus.
Oh, my God.
She's like, the fucking bitch, you know.
So it's like, you know, she went full jersey on her.
It's great.
I forget, Eddie, have you been to Coachella?
I've never been to Coachella.
Okay.
You know what it is?
Coachella's a little too pitchforky for me.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, it's like off the beaten pads.
I like my shit.
I like them a little more.
I would go for, because they always get really good hip hopbacks.
They do.
They've never, they had a little Yadi this year.
I love. Yeah, you love a little Yadi?
Yeah, I'm a big little Yadi fan.
The Black Seminole album that came out last year.
Okay.
It was fucking awesome. It was real trippy. It was like Tame and Paula almost.
You should definitely get into it.
Okay. I don't listen to that yet.
Yeah, but yeah, no, I love Loli.
So I would have loved to see him live. That would have been cool.
But yeah, it's too many DJs and stuff for me.
I'm like, I want to see my morning jacket.
You know, like, I'm, I've turned into full dad mode.
Yeah.
It would anno me.
is I see more footage of the celebrities in the crowd
than I do of the acts on the stage.
And that just rubs me immediately wrong.
Or like too much coverage of like the fashions and the fits.
Oh, yeah.
And not enough like what the artists are doing on the actual fucking state.
So two years ago, I had this Uber driver.
It was like, it looked like an Instagram model Uber driver.
And I was like, who's this hot chick driving me?
This is ridiculous.
And then as soon as I opened the door,
She turns around, she's like, just so you know, I'm only Ubering because I'm saving up for Coachella.
Like, before I even sat down.
That is so lame.
Did you not tell them?
Oh, wow, you're the lamest person I've ever met in my life.
Because that's good.
Because I was about to puke all over your car.
Oh, good.
I won't piss all over you.
Like, I do my Uber drivers that I don't do it just because they have to feed their kids to make ends me.
You fucking maniac.
Oh, my God.
You know, who else was that Coachella?
Young fathers.
You ever listen to that?
No.
Ooh, that shit fucking rocks.
I mean, I'm into young fathers.
Yeah, for sure.
I'd rather some old moms.
Just because I want to fix them.
Yeah.
But Daddy, I can fix him.
Ah, such a good one.
How about you see, um,
Jacob Noel,
sublime,
fucking make it a comeback?
I thought that was really, like,
really sweet.
I was about to say cute.
That's not the right word.
It is really sweet.
It's so heartwarming.
Yeah, it's so heartwarming.
Like, sublime, you know, like,
because you're from Florida.
I was, yeah, but they're,
they're long beach,
well, I know,
that's why,
I always thought,
because I never really looked that far into Sublime,
but growing up in beach culture,
I was just like,
oh,
that's just like a beach culture thing
until I found out.
It's like,
they're not from Florida.
It's like,
that's our side of the country.
It's like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You can have them,
I guess.
They're very California.
But I think this could be a fun, new time for Sublime.
I would love to see,
I want a new album.
I want Jacob to write a new album.
I think it's very cool.
I think it's,
I'm all about it.
I, like,
because I took enough time off of Sublime.
Yeah.
I took like 15 years off of sublime.
You know?
I'm ready to love them again as well.
Especially because we're out here in California.
Yeah, yeah.
And Lexi, like, I actually have been planning on getting her, the albums on vinyl
because she loves Sublime, like from child.
Yeah, yeah.
And like, I'm kind of building a little Lexi vinyl collection.
I do the same thing.
That's why I got the Olivia Rodrigo.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's a good addition.
I also have that on, I've got Sand Sauer on vinyl.
Nice, nice, yeah.
Well, speaking of music in a different way,
man, the Spice Girls
had a 50th birthday party
for Victoria Beckham.
Well, they didn't have it for her.
They were just at it.
And of course...
Did she change them to old Spice?
Wow.
I just, you know, I can't believe...
I think it's one of those things.
You keep getting older, so you forget
how old the celebrities are.
And I was like, 50?
What are you talking about?
I was like, Jackie, you're 36 years old.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, she's 50.
I was hoping.
I was hoping she was older, knowing that she's only eight years older than me.
I know.
It makes me feel older.
Makes me feel weirdly older somehow.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that you're not going to have Tom Cruise doing splits at your birthday party.
You're surprised by this, but remember Chopic Thunder?
He's a thing.
He loves to get out there and just go crazy.
He is the fountain of youth.
Yeah.
Tom Cruise, talk about, he's 61 years old, and he's just zipping around, doing whatever the hell he's
that's a thing.
barring the Scientology,
it kind of sounds like Tom Cruise is a fun guy to be around.
And I was going to say it also...
I was going to say barring also the fish fucking,
but no, that actually makes him more fun.
Yeah.
Unless you're a fish.
Yeah.
Or maybe it's like Ariel
where you're giving that fish an extra life
and isn't that kind of nice?
I guess so.
Outside of the water.
Or maybe she should have just been okay with who she was.
Whoa. She doesn't need legs.
She's fine as a fish.
But Daddy, I love him.
Daddy.
I do think that everyone was dumbfounded, though.
I love that he just kind of showed up.
But then you think about, like, the fact that he sends everybody cakes every year.
You know what?
There are certain things about Tom Cruise that keeps me coming back.
All those guys are so good at gifts.
Like, once you get in their circle, they're like, don't even know they're sending
them.
But you just, your address and your name and your date gets put on a list.
And then, like, all right, you get a fucking bottle of whatever,
or, you know, whatever they said.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that's the thing.
I'm pretending as if he himself is, like, getting these things.
Like, no, he has a whole team of people that does it.
Yeah, I bet he has a gift person.
Yeah, I'm sure.
It's not even his assistant.
It's like a gift person.
I've always wanted to try this.
One of us should have done this.
If you're having a wedding, you should just send invites to, like, all the billionaires
of the world.
And chances are their secretary will get it.
Send you, say I can't respond.
Send you like a huge gift.
And people do that.
as like a grift.
You know what you do?
Just get the wedding invitations made
and send them out anyway.
I know.
I'm thinking,
I don't want to try it
and just see what happens.
Just make a bunch of wedding invitations
send it to fucking
the Elon Musks of the world
and just see if like you get like a crazy
like fruit basket.
I would love it if Bill Gates
just showed up to an empty hole.
That'd be amazing out.
I'm coming, bitch.
What?
We've got to put on a wedding.
That's a great movie premise.
Then you have to make a wedding.
And then it's like the Muppets
getting together. Let's put on one more wedding, guys.
That's a fun comedy movie premise.
I do want to break up the fact that, man, all right, you know, Sabrina Carpenter,
we talked about this like a month ago.
Sabrina Carpenter is another pop artist.
She was opening for Taylor Swift for a while, and people are like, oh my God, she's so scandalous.
Because she is a lot more scandalous than Taylor Swift.
And at the end of her songs, this one song, she does this like, usually like a couple
line that's always different. That's usually
about like the place that she's in
and she makes like a kind of like sexy
little thing at the very end.
And what she said when she was at Coachella was
made his knees so weak
he had to spread mine.
He's drinking my bath water like
it's red wine. Coachella
see you back here when I
headline. Is how she ended
her set. But that's because she is
fucking Barry Keoggan.
Barry Keoggan from
Saltburn. And so he, she was
literally just singing it to him.
Yeah, reference the sucking up
the bathwater scene in Saltburn.
Yeah. And it is
I want to dream about
their love affair because everything
you hear about Barry Keogan, he's getting
fights all the time. Like, he doesn't seem like
an awful guy. He seems like an awful guy. He was like a bar
brawling guy before he became like an actor.
But it doesn't mean I wouldn't watch
the tape. Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah.
I liked him in a, what was the
one, the guy with the Irish
people shushing each other.
Oh, yeah, with the donkey?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
In the Shireen.
Innshire.
Yeah, I like that one a lot.
That was great.
But, um, I saw Burns.
I don't know.
It was like, I felt like, yeah, we talked to this.
You did not like it.
And I felt like it was like trying to offend me and I just didn't give a shit.
You know, like it was like one of those.
You know, that's, it was like, oh, he drank the water.
He's got his dick out.
Like, yeah, I'd seen movies from the 70s.
This is not offensive.
You know what it is?
I think it depended on when you saw it.
I went to see it, like, the, like, the,
second day after it came out, and I literally hadn't even seen the trailer.
It was just like, Jeff and Jeff was like, you want to go see this movie?
Barry Keogans and it, Jacob Lordy's in it.
Jacob Lordy's in.
I was like, all right.
So I knew nothing about the movie, which is why I think I loved it so much.
The mom was amazing.
Yes, and like, going into it, just knowing nothing, I was very surprised.
And for me, Lexi and Winnie were out of town, and I made myself a delicious steak dinner and got drunk as fuck, and I loved it.
Yeah, I bet.
You bet you had some flaccid times.
monkeying it up in that room, man.
Just yanking away.
No, that was his gooning time.
Yeah, that was my goon.
I gooned out really hard while they were gone.
He was gooning hard.
But also Barry Keogin and killing of a sacred deer.
Do you remember him in that one?
That's fucking awesome movie.
Dude.
He was terrifying in that movie.
He's so good in it.
And that's my problem with him.
He's such a good actor.
He's going to end up being that guy.
That's so funny.
That is such a one-to-one replaying them.
No, I'm saying he's going to turn into Ezra Miller.
Oh, yeah.
say that. Yeah, he's going to kidnap a girl.
No, don't say that.
It's indigenous people, Jackie.
No, don't say that. He's not
going to do that. You know, like, we bitch
about, like, you know, like him getting
into fights and stuff, but it's not like
Bruce Willis and John Goodman
didn't do that, you know?
Oh, I'm not upset at all. I'm thinking it makes him cooler
that he got into bar fights and stuff before. That
makes me like him. I feel like it's the kind of thing
where it's like bar fight culture
is different other places as well.
Like, I imagine in Ireland
in bar fight culture is very different
in bar fight culture here.
You know what I mean?
I feel like they tussle it out more
than they do.
Then they send them both back home.
They don't even get arrested.
That's a thing.
And then they're like laughing two days later.
You know what I mean?
Break it up, break it up.
Jimmy pissed himself.
Come on, let's go back at the bar.
Everybody kissed each other.
Hey, you're pissing to my mouth.
I kind of like.
You ever hear the,
my buddy David Feldman wrote this joke?
You ever hear the Irish D-U-I?
test? I'm afraid.
All right, so you're ready for the...
We have very sensitive listeners.
Oh, you know, it's fun. It's a fun one.
It's a fun one. You can cut it if you don't like it.
I'm just thinking. So the Irish
DUI test is a cop pulls
over a guy in Ireland and he
asks him how his mother is and
if he takes a swing at him, he can go. But if he starts
to cry, they got to take him in.
That was a good one.
Very good. But also
they're right.
Yeah. That man is too drunk to drive.
That was based off of a
news story from years ago
where they were actually trying to raise
the alcohol limit in D-EY's in Ireland for a while.
Damn. They wanted people to be
drunker on the roads.
Good. Oh, good.
Because they can handle their liquor any.
But how do you feel about Jennifer Lopez, Ed?
Where are you in the Jennifer Lopez scale?
I can confidently say, I don't care about her at all.
Okay. I think that's one of the, most of the world's been saying.
People keep telling me to care.
And I like the, I like them, what was the movie with Lizzo and everyone else?
I think it's a banana eater, I believe.
Sorry, it's the reference to the sex worker.
I know what happened.
I know what happened.
But what was the movie, the stripper movie?
Oh, well, hustlers.
Hustlers was great.
Well, Hustlers was great.
Yeah, I really liked hustlers.
But I didn't even like out of sight.
I thought that, I, that movie was supposed to be.
Great, and it really just wasn't.
No, it wasn't.
You know, with her and Clooney for that.
Oh, I remember.
I remember.
I, because I was a huge, I was huge into her rom-coms.
She did do great rom-coms if you're into rom-coms.
Yeah.
But now, you know, Jennifer Lopez, she had the documentary that came out, which I have not watched it,
but we did watch.
This is me dot, dot, dot, dot, now, colon a love story, which was her own funded film about her love story.
But then she also made a documentary about making.
the short film about her love story
and then also dropped an album
about the documentary
and her love story and everything else
and all of it, including the tour
that she is currently on,
is desperately failing.
Failing. You know, you're supposed to bet on yourself,
but I feel like she went all in
in this way that was like a little crazy.
Yeah, pick one, well, I think for her
she was like, this is going to be like my,
I don't even know who to compare it to.
People like her as an actress.
She needs to stick to that.
Yeah, yeah.
And the more and more, like, we're learning about her singing career,
like, it's constant just like she doesn't sing the hooks of her songs and, like,
and all this kind of stuff.
Do you know that she doesn't, she doesn't sing the music in Selena?
Oh.
I had no idea.
Jackie, found that out live on recording.
Because I always like, yeah, but Selena.
And then I was like, that bitch, she didn't sing in Selena.
Well, I'm glad they used Selena's voice.
I mean, me too.
I also would.
I watched that on a plane recently.
it was great.
Anything for Salinas?
I think this is what it is.
I think this is why I'm,
because isn't there also the line
the greatest love story never told?
Isn't that one of,
what is that in reference?
That's just like the,
the,
tagline, yeah, tagline.
It's not the greatest love story.
Also, everyone talks about you
and Ben constantly.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
You're like, we know it.
You're like forcing us to
try to believe
that this is the greatest love story ever
when it's super not.
And I think that that's what's like all the telling.
It's like, not to bring everything back to Taylor,
but at least the one thing I like about this album
is she's just like, here it is.
Here's my bullshit.
I'm not telling you, I'm just like singing about it.
I'm not trying to tell you how to feel about it.
You know what you mean?
I feel like J-Lo is like, this is my moment.
It's going to be arenas.
It's going to be a movie.
This is the greatest love story you've ever heard your life.
And everyone's like, no, dude.
You are so delusional.
You're in your crazy mansion trying to act like, you know,
there's that.
I don't know if you've seen the scene from the documentary
that everyone makes fun up.
She, like, puts her hair down.
She's like, I like put my hair down
because it reminds me that little girl running around,
the Bronx running around.
And she's in her, like, multi-million dollar mansion.
What are you talking about?
You were 12.
Yeah, you were 12, but also somebody wrote, like,
so I was like, I went to school with Jalo.
We went to like an all-girls private Catholic school
or something like that.
Like, it was not fucking like that.
Yeah, Jenny from the block, guys.
Is she really wanted to get everyone back?
she would have done like a small theater tour.
Yeah.
And then everyone would have been excited.
Oh, like an intimate, like intimate.
Yeah.
That would have been cool.
Like,
like,
1,000 seats or something.
Hell, yeah.
And, like, did a tour like that.
Then she could have, like, gotten some,
everyone would have been praising her all yes.
And then two years from now,
she could have done the arena tour.
But if that show was her being actually really vulnerable and honest
about all the shit that went down with, like,
her and Ben and kind of more like, you know.
Well, we're still together.
This was, this was.
This is a cool thing.
I heard, actually I heard Naked Glazer
talking about this on a podcast,
but I'm repeating it.
But Noah Cahan was on this podcast
called Song Exploder.
Also, have you been listening
to Noah Cahan?
I don't know who that is.
Six Season, I think you're going to do.
I think you're going to take it.
He did stuff with Olivia Rodriguez, too.
Yeah, no Gondon's awesome.
Stick season.
Stick season.
Oh, I thought you said six seasons.
Check it out.
TV show?
Wait a second.
It said it's six.
Nocans, he's a folk musician
who somehow in his sixth season of a TV show.
I don't understand.
But anyways,
one of the things he said on this, like,
music podcast was like, when I write something down and I'm like, I'm cringe, like, it's embarrassing
this like line in a song, I force myself to keep it in the song. Yeah, because I for, I, I, I don't change it.
I don't make it the thing that I, that makes it less embarrassing. I keep the embarrassing thing in.
That's what J-Lo needs to figure out. J-Lo needs to keep the embarrassing shit. Or just how to write a
song. Or just write a song at all. But all we see from her too is it like, she doesn't drink alcohol. She doesn't drink
caffeine. She has no sugar. She doesn't
eat carbs. She doesn't eat it. It's like, because
all of that makes you so
stuck up to a point where I'm just like
smile. Go in a
cheeseburger. It's just like you just have a cheeseburger.
Enjoy it. It's like Mark Wahlberg's
schedule when we read that. When I first
when I first read that I was like, fuck
you dude. Go fuck yourself.
And anybody who has to schedule
30 minutes of family time, go get
fucked. And anyone who wakes up at like four in the morning
is a fucking moron. Unless you
have a job. Unless you, yeah, unless you've got to get a
Yeah, of course.
Unless you're not Mark Wahlberg.
He doesn't do that, though.
He doesn't need to do any of that.
Yeah, no, he does not need to do any of that.
But I do think it's time for a celebrity conspiracy theory.
Oh, hit me with the share.
Do you believe it?
This one's, this is good because it's kind of, don't get mad at me if it's too dark.
Is Megan Kelly secretly Nicole Brown Simpson?
Whoa.
Is this all coming to light because of the death?
Yeah, because of OJ.
I think so, yeah.
So Megan Kelly, if you don't know, is an American Journal.
list of media personality. The funny thing is she keeps talking about it. Oh, really? Like,
we both have blonde hair, don't you see? Yeah, yeah. Oh my God. I can't believe that. She really does
say that? No, I just would imagine that's what she would be saying. But what is she doing to
encourage it? All right, listener wrote in is Megan Kelly's eagerly Nicole Brown Simpson. Hey,
Holden, this is a weird one since OJ died, been seeing conspiracy theories involving him
online, but most kind of boring, except the Chloe Kardashian one, and I know you already covered
that. But this one came across my TikTok page and thought,
it was interesting enough, mostly because how much it seems Megan Kelly herself brings it up.
Like it's something people say so often she keeps addressing it. I don't think she looks like her.
How about you guys? I do think she looks kind of like her enough for people to make a conspiracy up,
but there's very identifiable differences.
The whole alive part?
The whole alive part is a big one, definitely.
Yeah, there's definitely pictures of Nicole with their head cut off.
Yeah, yeah, and all that good stuff. Or bad stuff. So here's an article I found in YouTube vid where she's straight up
addresses it. Only need to watch the first
three minutes of the video. All right, so I watch it
so you guys didn't have to. Thank you. But essentially
straight from the dead horse's mouth
that is Megan Kelly. We'll also say
they look oddly similar. If you look up Megan Kelly
and if they do look similar.
I get it. Have come up with this.
Well, it's just also, you've heard the
Katie Perry's Jonbonnet Ramsey.
Oh yeah. Yes. Oh, we've done that. We did that one
forever ago. That's one of the big ones.
So she said the theory is, I was
I am right now actually Nicole Brown
Simpson that I wasn't actually murdered, that somehow Hollywood staged this or did something to make it
look like I had died. And then I came back as a journalist Megan Kelly. She went on to say,
I have a long history of being alive in my own skin under my own name, people. You gotta let it go.
Focus on getting the help you need. Go outside, smell the fresh air, get some rest. See real people.
Stay off the internet. I think that's the number one piece of advice. Stay off the internet.
If you are prone to this kind of thinking, it's not your friend. But let's go to the comments.
Roman, whose profile pig is of him holding up a bunch of sausages wrote,
exactly what one would expect Nicole Brown to say when she's exposed.
Wow.
And under that, a user wrote did it a thousand times, and another wrote, that's called
hiding in plain sight.
Another user posed a really good counter theory.
Why would you get rid of the huge hooters if you were Nicole?
That's the question.
That's what they're wondering about.
Jesus Christ, what are you talking about?
So do you think?
Well, now I want to look at their breast sizes
because I'm so curious.
If this is true, Nicole Brown Simpson,
aka Megan Kelly, had her tits
lopped off or at least shaved out a little bit
in order to play the part. So these are,
so this is a conspiracy theory
brought up by people on the
Instagram and stuff.
Ed, I have a great new platform.
You've got to check out. It's called TikTok, man.
It's not anymore, bro.
They're saying they're banned it.
This morning.
He signed it.
He signed it.
We don't know what it's happening.
It might be able to be moving, though.
It is moving.
But they have to sell now.
Yeah.
Really?
If they want to stay in America, they have to sell.
What do you mean sell?
They have to sell to an American company.
Yeah.
How do you just force people to sell a company like that?
Because they're giving our information to the Chinese government.
All of our information is everybody has all of our information.
It's insane.
I know, I know, I know.
But TikTok's going to be the, it's going to be the problem.
I have an admission to you to make to you both.
I'm a sleeper sell.
No.
I don't even know, dude, but I'm fucking implicated.
He's asleep, but you're supposed to be doing a show, Holden.
Oh, right, I forgot to tell you guys, you're both in my simulation, by the way.
Oh, man, I knew the day was weird.
I made a joke about that on Friday, and I think Jackie actually got insulted that you would be in my simulation and that I wouldn't be in your series.
Yeah, of course, yeah.
I don't want to be in your simulation.
Also, I don't know if you would create me in your simulation.
You don't think I'd make you?
No, because I'd be like, blah, blah, yeah, I feel like I need something.
to scream at my face at all time.
I imagine if you make your own simulation, don't you want silence?
There would definitely be a lot more like just dick trees and like tit, you know,
sandwiches and stuff like that.
Yeah.
I'm like, where are the tit sandwiches?
Oh, I mean, you know, Burger King.
That's my problem.
Not eating any fast food.
I recently went to my old hooters and it was nice.
Oh, yeah?
What you saw an ex-girlfriend?
No.
Come on, everybody.
I used to work at Hooters.
Oh, I really know.
Oh, we know.
And I went back to town, and it's still there.
There you go.
Hell, yeah.
I love that.
I, so do you believe?
Yeah, of course I believe.
Okay, great.
Of course I don't believe.
Wow.
Oh, and.
No, you haven't looked at the breasts.
Yeah.
So it's like if you look at the breasts.
Well, let me see that.
She's got big, this picture.
I didn't look at the picture.
Yeah, Nicole Brown Simpson.
Well, maybe she had to get a reduction because her back hurt.
It is very possible, you know.
And she was living in hiding.
so she probably had to like go figure some stuff out before she became Megan Kelly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm sure her children were curious where she was.
I bet.
But I guess they're also curious where the list is.
Oh, who's on the list?
Jackie!
Gotta have that list.
From 12 puppies to no T-shirts at all, 26 truly wild requests celebs had backstage and on set.
Now, some of these we've heard before, but there are some that were new to me.
Like, according to information revealed during a lawsuit,
Lady Gaga once asked for a mannequin with puffy pink pubic hair backstage.
And I don't know what she did with it, and I don't know why she wanted it.
But maybe it was just for aesthetic purposes?
She had to pay for it.
I know that much.
Yes.
Well, that's the thing.
With all of these writer things, like, you've got to pay for it, but somebody's also got to go do it.
I wonder, though, if this is a Brown Eminem situation.
So you know the Brown Eminem.
You mean it's on this list, Van Halen asked for a bowl of M&Ms with all brown canes.
Oh, I thought it was Ozzy.
On this list, Van Halen.
Van Halen.
And if you don't know, I mean, I feel like at this point it's like more common.
Because everyone like, you know, kind of like to make fun of that and everything.
But the whole idea was if that bowl was not only Brown M&Ms, they knew they had to do a whole second full on check of all the tech stuff.
Because they had pyro and stuff like that.
Oh, okay.
Someone's going to die.
If there's an oversight like that, we have to do a full, full second round of like
secure checks on all the technical
shit, make sure nothing's going to fucking fall
on them or something like that. And then
David Lee Roth ended up being a paramedic.
Yeah. So there you go.
There you go. Maybe this is
part of the issue, J-Lo. J-Lo's
writer allegedly includes all
white everything, down to the couch,
drapes, and candles.
Boring. Even
down to your rider, it's boring?
Come on. It's kind of ridiculous.
At least the Lady Gaga's thing. I mean, that's
fucking cool. That's for all the
monsters to play with.
Yeah.
You know, and this, you know, is a choice because I'm not usually sucking back on oysters
right before a show, but maybe that's my problem because Grace Jones, I don't, yeah,
I'm not a big, I'm not a big shucker myself.
But Grace Jones is because she asks for closed oysters.
Closed?
Yep.
Because Grace does her own shucking, a description of the writer in her book read.
Really?
That's crazy.
The shucking's the crazy part.
will say, I wonder if it's like, because Grace Jones
I mean, not with that, you've got to have the metal glove.
Yeah, the whole thing. Yeah, you're going to get the juice on you.
Yeah.
Grace Jones, though, had a very kind of sexy performance style, right?
Yeah, so maybe, maybe.
Now, is this the model from the 80s that we're talking about?
I kind of feel like it might have been the part of where the oysters are an
aphrodisiac, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
And to kind of get you in the kind of the headspace a little bit.
I could see that.
Yeah, and they're good, you know, they're good.
Well, after her breakup with Justin Bieber,
Selena Gomez allegedly asked that no members of the crew
in an Adidas commercial she was filming
use the name Justin.
No one can say the name.
But she was also like 19 at the time.
It would have set her off.
Yeah, what is it?
You know, like I agree with that.
Yeah.
You know, like don't talk to me about it.
I'm working right now.
I don't want to know.
You know, when we were working on the Justin Bieber roast,
I was at a WME party with Jeff.
And we were like the roast was like a week and a half away.
And we saw Selena Gove.
at the party and we're like
Jeff went up to Selena and she's like
we're roasting Justin next week what should I
say to him and then she and I was right there
I saw this and she was like just tell him the truth
he hates that
damn I'm cool
that's a great line right
that is a great party
that is a great
that's out of a movie man I'd be looking for cameras
in the bushes like that feels right out of a movie
I will also say the JLo article relates to this
remember she had people fired
from the set of something, like one of her movies,
because it was right after the South Park
Ben and J-Lo episode that, like, was huge.
She was hilarious.
She hated it.
And people were quoting it on the set,
and she, like, had people fired from the set.
Yeah.
For, like, quoting the thing.
But, you know, going back to what I just said,
you know, if you're going to piss off the talent,
the product's going to suffer.
Yep.
And so, you got to, if they don't want them there,
you got to get them out.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, something that we want to get in there is wigs,
because speaking of Cher,
Share reportedly wanted a whole room
for her wigs during her 99
tour. To be fair, though, the wigs can
share the room with her wardrobe if
it's big enough.
I think that that also
kind of makes sense in the same
way that we talk about on our live show that
Mariah Carey has her
own separate hotel room when she travels
just for her luggage, because she has to
put them somewhere. So even with this, it's like,
yeah, she has a bunch of wigs
for her performances, which would make sense.
So it would make sense that they would have their own room.
Yeah, I mean, come on.
I love to say she said that they could share the room.
Yeah, yeah.
By the way, great follow on YouTube share.
She's a great, she's always releasing clips from her old show,
and it's just her, like, singing old songs with Elton John and stuff
and, like, all these great celebrities, back when television was a lot of fun.
You really are 65.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But she puts a new one out every week.
You should check it out.
Oh, I definitely will, yeah.
Joe Jonas had admitted that his writer includes 12 puppies.
It's just that sounds like an, I don't get wrong.
I love a puppy.
I love being around puppies.
I don't need puppies right before the show.
There's some animal rights issues going on there.
Right?
Yeah, what do they do with them afterwards?
Rounding him up?
I guess they set him free.
Yeah.
That's pretty so much so everyone can play with a puppy?
What if it pisses or shits on him right before he goes on stage?
I imagine.
Seems irresponsible.
Very irresponsible.
But at the same time, you know, I love puppies.
Yeah.
I like being covered in piss and shit.
Yeah, so there you go.
So maybe that's a good idea.
Farrell Williams' request for a framed
Carl Sagan picture in his dressing room
may have started off as a joke,
but since then it's become a regular part of his rider.
Oh, wow. Chris Rock always has a picture of Prince
and Zana's rider.
So whenever you go backstage at a Chris Rock show,
there will always be a framed picture of Prince.
And so, like, our buddy Nemesh Patel,
who worked and wrote for Chris,
Rock a bunch learned about that.
And so now whenever
Nemesh is on tour, he has a picture
of Chris Rock getting dissed by
Kobe framed in his
dresser. He said no matter how big
you are, someone's bigger and they'll fucking
shut you down. I love that. Yeah. I love
that. I don't know if I would love this though.
George Clooney allegedly had a custom
built Beach Hut and
Hot Tub placed next to his trailer
while filming gravity.
Is it just that like he was too
like was the space too much for him
that he's like, I need beach.
Give me beach vibes. I need
more of it. Too much outer space.
I mean, I make sense to me.
You know, the thing is, if it's in the budget,
you know, give it to him. And if it's, I mean,
and he was great in gravity. He's great.
You know, like, if he didn't bring it, then
I'd be like, what an asshole, but he brought it.
And we're not talking about like a day here. I'm sure
that was several days of shooting.
You know, this thing's there for, yeah,
a month, yeah, more, you know.
And then do pre-pro on that? You had to learn
out of being an astronaut floating shit.
That thing's getting worse.
That things get used.
You know what I mean?
He loves his booze
and I know that much.
So he probably had people
coming over and hanging out.
I bet he took a lot of meetings in there.
Oh yeah.
So it was probably,
probably got a lot of use out of it.
Hot tub meetings, baby.
And last but not least.
He's my man crush, I think.
George Clooney.
I think George Clooney out of all the dude
celebs, like he's...
Why do you think George Clooney?
Why is...
I mean, I think that's the coolest.
Yeah.
And you know what?
I think a lot of it has to do
it from Dustal Dawn because I remember
I snuck in to see from Dustal Dawn when I was
like super young and I felt like I was
I just had sex. You know?
Yeah. Because I remember we made a deal with the usher
because we were like we wanted to see from Dustal Dawn but my
theater decided to rated X even though it wasn't.
They just like made the choice on their own because it was
so offensive to them. Oh my God.
But my buddy's brother was an usher there and so he's
like buy tickets to Jamanji and I'll sneak you in for five bucks each.
And so we did and we got in the front row and I just sat in the front
Road watch from Dustal Dantza.
Nice. I was like, who's this guy? Because I didn't know what ER was.
I was like, I fucking love this guy.
Hell yeah. And now I still do. He's just a cool.
I mean, he kind of is, you could definitely
draw a line to like he's kind of our Sinatra
a little bit. Yeah, except he can't sing.
Somebody can't sing, but in the, like,
other way, you know, he's just
got that, that Renaissance man kind
of thing that you just want to like
emulate, I think more than, you know.
Whereas DiCaprio, it's to, you know,
everyone's kind of like, ah, he's always banging these
youngs, you know what I mean? And he's kind of gone
down in stock with that. But as George,
you know, he kind of kept it, got it kept it
classy. Yeah, yeah. I love, yeah, and
yeah, he's married to an activist.
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Are they married?
Yeah, I think so. I just
talk about another tape that I'd love to watch.
The two of them are also, they're just such, like,
they're just so elegant.
Yeah, and they're just so, like, they're so classy.
Yeah, you know there's like rose petals involved
and shit. Everyone smells great.
Oh, you know they smell great. Yeah, his
stock really went up when he got
together with her. Yeah.
That boys in the boat movie looks fucking stupid.
I hear it's great.
I hear it's really good, but it looks so stupid.
You saw it?
No, but I did see the Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, the new Guy Ritchie movie,
and actually really enjoyed it.
Well, it's about time he made something worth watching.
It's, I mean, it's...
That I mean...
It was fucking aggravatingly bad.
Oh, I didn't watch it.
What was it?
He made the live action of Aladdin?
Yeah.
They gave it the Guy Ritchie.
You know, that poor dude who got cast as Aladdin?
He ain't even getting auditions anymore.
Do you like any of the live-action Disney movies?
I thought the Little Mermaid one was good.
I thought it was all right.
I watched a lot of it on a plane and thought it was pretty alright.
I don't think any of them are better than the movie.
Right.
I think the best one's the best one.
Okay.
I don't think I've seen that one.
It's actually really good.
That's your back in the day, though, right?
That was the second one.
Cinderella was first.
Then the Jungle Book.
And the Lion King one's fine.
I think the Lion King one is cool because it like changed the way.
films are made.
And I thought that, because they, like, made the movie into, like, a computer graphics, like, into, like, a library or something.
Yeah.
And it was in a land, like, on a computer game.
And then what they did was they made, they put the cameramen in VR helmets and they let them walk around the land and then film it.
Whoa.
Oh, that's really great.
Yeah.
So it was like a new, it was like a really cool revolutionizing way to shoot a film.
And so that's why I like the new.
Lion King, but I mean, like, come on, what are we doing here?
Like, we don't, we don't need to do one.
Yeah. But they're making a part two, so hopefully that's good.
Oh. They're making a part two? Yeah.
Lion King part two, yeah.
Whoa. There you go. I think it's actually a
Mufasa prequel.
Oh, okay. Oh, so we get to see young hot Mufasa?
Yeah.
Okay, A, is it animated and B is Elton John involved?
No, it's not, it's the, it's the, it's the, what you would call it?
It's the, it's, Favro's doing it again in the VR world.
Okay.
They're doing another one in a world.
Okay, all right, I'll watch that.
I believe that's what it is.
I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's what it's going to be.
Interesting.
Well, I'm down to look into it.
And last but not least,
Metallica wanted bacon with every single meal during their 2004 tour.
Quote, bacon, very important that bacon be available at every meal and during day is literally the quote from the writer.
Oh, my God.
Me, me, me, me, me, me.
I need the meat to go on stage.
Then that's Metallica for you.
Ed was referencing the documentary about them
where I believe they were in a group therapy session.
Oh my God.
And it's his vocal, it's his vocal warmups he has to do
before he goes on stage.
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me.
Yeah, yeah.
All right, well, that impression made me.
I think I'm going.
Blind.
It's items.
We can't see them.
This is great, Ed.
Man, just one run through at the top.
You're really killing this.
This permanent A-list
dual threat actress who is an
Oscar winner slash nominee and comes from
a sprawling acting family hates
that the illiterate actress is going to
remake a movie done by the permanent A.
Lister and is doing everything she can to
get it killed. So
this permanent A. Lister,
I'm just going to go ahead and give a big hint.
She was the center of another
article you sent where she was getting
hate and she's remaking
a... Scarjo? No, not
Scarjo. No, Scarjo is getting stalked.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, she's
getting hated towards. And you'll hear more
about that on the leftovers, by the way.
Oprah?
The episode we record after this where we do
any articles we didn't cover. No, not Oprah.
Oh, Sidney Sweeney.
Sidney, and she's remaking a movie that was
starring a lady who is much older
who we still find to be beautiful.
Nay, I say hot.
Helen Mirren. No.
In the ballpark, activist.
Activist. Yeah, she's an
activist. Jamie Lee Curtis. No.
I think older.
Maybe not older.
She, activist, she's hot.
Jane Fonda.
Jane Fonda.
Do you know the movie that Sydney, Sweeney's re-making?
No, I don't. What is she doing?
Barbarella.
Oh, that's awesome.
Yeah, right?
She's perfect to do Barbarrella.
Yeah.
What's the deal with Barbarella?
Can you give me the Barbarella rundown?
Because I've never seen it.
It's like a caveman movie.
Okay.
It's just a hot lady.
Yeah, it's a sexy.
It's a space.
Oh, space.
The President of Earth sends space adventurer Barabella on a mission to retrieve a scientist.
Confession, I've never seen it.
She crash lands on a planet and explores its strange customs
after a man rescues her from Captain.
Oh, that's why I think it's a caveman movie.
Gotcha, yes.
I kind of feel like, like it's perfect.
It's very, right?
It's a trashy movie.
She's like a sex pot.
She's like doing the thing.
What's wrong with Jane.
She's a horrible actress.
Sidney's sweetie really is.
I finally, I freely come around.
I realize that like she's great.
Do you think Jane Flonda's a good actress?
Now she is.
Now she's great.
But I mean, probably not, maybe not in Barbara.
I know I need to watch Barbarella.
I liked her in Euphoria.
What did you see that you bounced off of?
Euphoria.
She's great in Euphoria.
but I think that's because, like, she is that character in some facets.
Immaculate really, Immaculate is so good, but she is a very bad actress.
Yeah.
It's a very bad actress.
Like, even at points there, I was just like, girl, come on.
Did you see the romantic comedy?
I didn't, anyone but you.
Yeah, but I'm going to watch that.
I kind of want to.
Yeah, I'm going to watch that.
I'll definitely watch that.
I'll all, see, I don't know anything about Sidney's Sweeney.
I just, all I hear is people talk about her breasts and then people talk about how
she can't act. And that's all. And then everyone
doesn't like her for some reason. She's like
moving and shaking. She's producing. Yeah.
It seems like she's trying hard. She's buying
script. Like last year, two years ago
it seems that she was in like her
family are Trumpers. Like
oh. And so she was at a part
I think that this like didn't help
things. She's at a party with people with red
hats on. It was like it was just like
yeah and it was just not. But
like you're invited to a family party.
When she's going to not show up?
You know? Like who can't? We all got
We all have bad family members.
You're not going to see them forever because they have different political views.
But then people are like, why would you post it?
Why would this come out?
It's like, so that's the crazy place we're in right now.
You know, that's a little like, all right.
Well, again, we don't know that situation necessarily, but what it seems like is that her family are dropers.
And that's what another negative thing towards her.
Yeah.
I think everybody does.
Yeah.
It's 50% of the nation.
Unfortunately.
Yeah.
It's going to be a hell of a lot.
I know, I'm like, just getting it through this year, dude.
All right, next one.
This actress sibling dresses up as characters her sister has played for men online.
It's like she's that day of the week that gets freaky.
That was the clue that I had.
Lindsay Lohan?
Yes.
Yeah.
Her sister's a little sister?
She has a sister named Ali Lohan.
Oh.
I guess she dresses up like her sister's characters to make men hard, Jackie.
In a very opposite way, I've seen that Megan Markle's brother has been dressing up
Megan Markle and making fun of her on YouTube.
So, wait, wait, wait.
Like he hates her and making fun of her?
Yes, and like putting on a wig.
Are you like, yeah.
Well, I mean, well, I'm sure he's a fan of the dad who hates her.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know, it's a, speaking of Lindsay Lohan, I will say, I worked with her brother, Mike
Lohan.
He was at the Village Poorhouse together.
He, uh, whoa.
Yeah, I know, he, he came in.
Well, they went through like a period at that bar of like hiring celebrities brothers.
They hired David Wright's brothers.
Matt Wright for a little while, like the third base.
It just happened to be?
Because they bring in celebrities and stuff like that.
But they hired Mike Lohan.
I was like, are you fucking serious?
Because when they hired Matt Wright, he was like an idiot.
No offense.
I mean, whatever.
Who cares?
I'm never going to talk to him again.
Like, I remember when he came in, it was his first shift by himself.
And I like, I just stopped in to see how he was doing.
And then he had put a post note on the safe with the safe combination.
And then I was like, bro.
I was like, Matt, you can't do this shit.
I was like, put it in your pocket, right into your phone anywhere.
And so when they hired Mike Lohan, I was like, again, are we doing this shit?
And so he came, I fucking rode his ass.
I was bitching at him.
I, like, treated him like shit.
And he was just so nice and did his job.
And he was, like, really good at his job.
I felt so guilty for just yelling at him a bunch.
And then he ended up being, like, one of my favorite people I worked with.
Oh, nice.
Did you at least explain to him why that happened?
Because at least you had a reason for it.
I mean, I was also incredibly drunk in those days.
to it. We all were.
Ah, yeah.
All right. Last one.
With her album, movie, and tour
all struggling to win folks over,
she now thinks having a baby will rekindle
everyone's fandom of her again.
Yes. Jailo again?
No. A source exclusively
tells life and style that the pop star has been trying
to persuade hubby, bid Affleck, to have
a baby via surrogate, and claims that she
quote, finally got him to cave
in, end quote. And I actually believe this,
Because that's the evidence we've seen,
apparently in the documentary and everything.
Like, I feel, like, how do you feel bad for Bidaf?
Like, you shouldn't feel bad for Bidavik.
You know, he's just robbing his force.
I know.
Make me have a baby.
It's just, you're going to get over this.
You're going to get over this career hump.
Just don't do this to me.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, it's like, so old.
It's just, like, not going to be a good baby.
And they both have grown children.
Yeah.
It's just, like, you imagine starting over again.
Well, especially starting over again in the name of,
sort of make them like me. That's sort of to get them back on board.
I feel like she's that kind of person.
She's got, you know, kind of twiddles her thumb, staring out over like a big, you know,
landscape out of her window just like plotting all day.
You know what I mean?
How do I make them love me?
No, that's me, Holden.
That's what I do.
She sits on a throne made of ice that they have to like,
we, like, chisel every morning out of a block of ice.
I do my soft spot for, in the spirit of the brighter side, I will say something nice
about Jay-Low.
She owned 2% of the dolphins for a while.
Wow.
And I appreciated that she took them.
How was that a nice thing?
Because we were suffering and we didn't have a good time.
The dolphins were, you know, we were almost going to get sold.
And she came in with Mark Anthony, bought a piece of the dolphins.
So Mark Anthony, I would say.
I know, but she was a part of it.
It was more Mark Anthony than her.
And Jimmy Buffett and Gloria Stefan also pitched in a lot.
Nice, nice, nice.
But yeah, so shout out to J-Lo for keeping the dolphins.
Who does it, you're right.
You talk shit, but, you know, it's got...
Honestly, I don't think she's having a very good time right now,
and my heart goes out to her.
I love to hate on J-Lo, but I also enjoy...
Again, I love anyone that's a diva,
and that is openly a diva.
That's why I love Mariah Carey.
I love anyone that's just like, man,
because I'm fascinated by it.
I'm such a people-pleaser.
Like, I could never imagine me, like,
make it bigger, make it strong-out.
Like, I can imagine being like that.
She is fucking drivet.
I'm living, dude.
Yeah.
That is a huge, I mean, she's, yeah, she's put herself through the ringers.
So, but I like this little intimate theater tour.
I love this idea.
Yeah, I think that would do it really good for her.
Yeah.
That's her only chance.
She used to wait a couple years, though.
Yeah, she used to do like a storyteller Springsteen Broadway thing.
Oh, I don't know.
I don't know if she's interesting enough for that.
Yeah, it's a problem.
Well, she thinks she thinks she is, though, obviously.
She thinks she's part of the greatest love story that's never been told before.
It's never been told that we don't know anything about it.
She's our Elizabeth.
Taylor without the good acting.
Yes.
Yeah.
She'd love to hear that.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Don't tell her.
Don't tell her.
Is that all your blind items?
I can see so well.

Our first shoutout goes out
to the wonderful, amazing
Jade. Now Jade, I don't know if you're new to our
Twitch community, but I just want to say it's been
such a pleasure having you.
Jade says, I'm on a bit
of an edible right now, cleaning my
house, and want to shout out our Twitch community.
Every Wednesday, getting on Twitch to watch
Jackie and MJ Play Sims,
is the highlight of my work week.
It's so funny being in chat,
rooting for the death of fictional, problematic men,
fuck you, piss boy, Viper Jones,
with a group of the sweetest,
most uplifting people on the internet.
I especially wanted to give a shout out
to anyone who was in chat this week
when we lost the stream multiple times.
We stuck through it,
and the man finally died.
I also had the absolute best time yesterday
watching cats with all of y'all.
I was in cats, but I'd never seen the whole movie before.
My brother was in it with me, so I was waiting to watch it with him,
but it's been five years, and any time I visit him, we don't want to watch it, so,
sorry, Jacob, but I watched it with page seven.
Let me just say, that was an amazing experience.
I was so high watching an insane movie,
enjoying three of my favorite people, watching it together, and loving chat.
What a happy moment!
It was like seeing y'all on tour all over again.
Okay, not as fun, but still a close second.
Anyway, I gotta get back to cleaning my house,
but wanted to shout out all my Twitch babes.
I love y'all.
Love Jade, Goldluck on Twitch.
And I just want to say, thank you so much, Jade,
for taking the time to write in a little,
hi, hello, and and I love you to our Twitch community.
Because really, I dare say it is the best Twitch community, by far.
We have no, like, haters.
We just have such a wonderful,
beautiful, uplifting place.
And I want to say thank you.
I'm piggybacking over here.
Also, thank you from me for showing up every week,
whether that be at Jackin or just over on Holdenaders Ho,
or during the Sims,
and always bringing just a smile to my face.
I love you guys so much,
and our Twitch community means so much to me.
And thank you so much.
How many times can she say so much?
I just want you to know how much I'm feeling.
It's so much in case you were wondering.
Now our next shout out that we have coming up is coming in from an amazing human being.
I just want to give a warning to everyone that it is concerning loss of a child.
So if this is something that is not in the cards for your brain today, please, you are welcome to end the show now.
And I want to say thank you so much for Ariel for sharing with us because it is important for us to be here for each other in our community, no matter what we're going through.
and I just want to say thank you because maybe this is reaching someone who needs to hear the idea of moving forward today.
And I just want to say thank you, Ariel, for sharing.
Ariel says, I'm writing to give a big, huge shout out to myself.
The past three years have been brutal.
In 2021, I had to have an emergency C-section at 25 weeks due to a massive placental abruption.
Our little girl was so strong, but ultimately the traumatic and early birth was too much,
and we lost her five days after she was born.
The next year was a blur,
and five months after her death,
I got pregnant with our son.
We were elated but terrified of having another loss.
Me and my loving fiancé basically white-knuckled the whole pregnancy,
praying every day that we could bring our son home.
I went through countless high-risk OB appointments,
two hospitalizations due to complications from placenta previa,
but thankfully our son was born healthy,
and feisty and 35 weeks.
And after a short Nicky's day, we were able to bring him home on Thanksgiving Day of 2022.
What a beautiful, magical day to be born.
He is the light of our lives.
He was our missing puzzle piece.
And I love seeing how amazing of a big sister my oldest is to him.
Over the last few months, I have finally started to feel like myself again.
The grief of losing Mabel will always be there.
But it is no longer paralyzing as it was.
Three months ago, I started a huge project of renovating one of our spare rooms into our new bedroom.
Like the boss bitch I am, I refinished wood trim, patched holes in the wall,
stripped wallpaper and painted until the room is an amazing and peaceful bedroom of my dreams.
I have also begun decluttering the things that have piled up over the past two years.
Most importantly of all, I finally figured out what I wanted to do in Mabel's honor so that her memory never dies.
This year for her birthday, I made memory boxes for lost parents
and donated them to my local hospital
and planned to make more and donate to hospitals
in the surrounding area this year.
That's beautiful, Ariel.
I've listened to you guys for years.
I had to take a break during Holden's wife's pregnancy
for obvious reasons, but now I am back
and it feels like being reunited with old friends.
Thank you guys for all the laughs and hours of entertainment over the years.
I can't thank you guys enough.
Keep it real, you goofballs.
And I'm sending so much love right back to you, Ariel, and to your whole family.
Oh, congratulations and sending so much love and light your way.
And I'm so proud of you for continuing on and moving through such heartbreak and coming out
the other side.
Thank you for being here and for being an inspiration to all of us.
So much love goes out to you.
And so much love goes out to everybody that is listening right now.
I just want you to feel my love in your ears,
and I hope that you accept it,
and I hope that it makes you smile.
I love you guys so much.
Have a hashtag blast week,
and I hope your spring is sprung in all of the ways you wish it to.
I got to get out of here.
I love you guys. I'll talk to you next week.
Bye!
