Hey guys, this is Jackie Zabrowski from the Last Podcast Network,
and ooh baby, do I have a juicy treat for you Law and Order SVU lovers out there?
And it's a new parisocial relationship.
Check out That's Messed up, an SVU podcast on the Exactly Right Network,
hosted by two of my comedian friends, Kara Clank and Lisa Trager.
Every week they break down an episode of Law and Order SVU,
the true crime it's based on, and chat with an actor from the episode.
I'm talking Margaret Cho, Matthew Lillard,
and if you slip and slide at the thought of B.D. Wong,
we'll get your ears prepared because it's getting wet out here.
Check out That's Messed Up for all things SVU, unfiltered hot takes, and more.
Again, that's That's Messed Up, an SVU podcast available wherever you get your beautiful podcasts.
New Eps every Tuesday, and that's not messed up.
All right, it's a bad joke.
Fortunately, Kamala has already turned down
It's a Woman's World and we're just lucky to be living in it.
So I'm just waiting for X-Tina to come up to bat
and just offer up a,
If you want to be with me, baby, there's a price to pay.
I'm a genie in a bottle.
You gotta rub me the right way.
I want it.
I want the genie vote.
I want the genie vote.
I think the Kamala should use.
If you want her, you got to run.
Rubber the right way.
If that is not, I mean, female empowerment, I don't know what is.
Welcome to page seven.
And, man, what would we do without Katie Perry?
Don't worry.
She's already offered the song to Kamala.
And denied.
Thank God.
Already politely declined.
Politely declined.
The usage of women's world on the campaign trail.
That shows good political instinct, honestly.
Good job, Kamala.
Deny it.
Don't touch it.
I want to be in the war rooms.
so bad.
I would have Katie Perry's war rooms so bad.
She must have some young people in her campaign, right, that we're like, no, don't do it.
You definitely don't want to attach yourself to this because I feel like.
Kamala looks at that and goes, oh, Katie Perry, this is great.
And I'm hoping that someone was like, please, you must not, like throw themselves in front of her.
And then Kamala's like, ah, yes, right.
I forgot what you told me.
They are not like us.
It's like, yes, but lose the horror.
Yeah, that was, I'm still not overheard,
not being able to say they're not like us with the proper cadence.
That was very upsetting.
But she said a sentence and knew what room she was in
and who the people in the room were.
So we're very excited now.
Kamala is brat, to quote Charlie X-E.
The first red flag would have been fully embracing woman's world.
And it was, hot, hut.
quickly dived.
Katie Perry also, she endorsed Kamala and then put out her own edit of Kamala set to women's world.
And my favorite tweet about this was somebody who tweeted, oh, I know the Harris campaign is working on a cease and desist letter this morning.
Like, I just, this is not a political show.
We're not going to get all into the Kamala stuff.
There's a lot of discourse about it right now that this is not the space for it.
But I do think it's funny that you guys have been talking about Charlie XXX for at least a,
year or two on here. I'm so Julia.
That is why I need everyone to know that's why I did not start with 360 is because it
would just be being going.
Bambam, bum, bannabodum. I'm so Julia.
Oh, ah, oh, oh, oh, oh. And I, no one wants to hear a Charlie XX song sung Acapella.
I'm going to throw it out there. It's a tough acapella. It's a tough acapella thing.
And then, you know what, Jackie? I think that we should airplane you in to MSNBC right now because
Airplane me in.
Airplane you in,
AirDrop you in.
We just, you got to get there because there,
or maybe it was CNN, I don't know which one.
They were having a panel.
They were having a panel about what does Kamala is Brat mean.
They have a whole explanation.
Can somebody explain to me?
What is brats?
Does that mean she likes candy?
I'll give her a word as she'll never forget.
There's so much discreet.
Is Charlie X-X for the millennials?
Is she for Gen Z?
What is the significance of this?
Does this, and listen, a lot of this discourse is going to be exhausting.
You're going to need to not get bogged down.
You're going to need to remember that we're lucky to be living in it.
All right.
The memes are good sometimes, and the memes are good right now.
And that's all, and again, we now have a candidate who is alive.
And for that, we, we read.
Right. For that, the memes are good. The memes are good. And we receive you memes and we say thank you, memes, because it is making a smile. I hang out after I've fallen out of my coconut treat. And I look at the memes and I go, ah, memes. I feel like it's like a, ooh, it's like a skin jacket that I put on.
I have a proposed campaign song. Are you ready for this?
Sure. Yeah, let's hear it.
Come along, my lady, come along, my lady. You're my butterfly, sugar, baby. Let's go.
Do not bring up shifting shell shock right now.
We are not talking about Shifty Shell Shock, okay?
I think it's nice.
You know, it would be a way to honor Shifty Shell Shock.
Honor the dead.
Bring, yeah.
You know, and say, hey, maybe our elder, I'm sorry.
By the way, we are now geriatric millennials.
I just need you guys to know that.
I'm not.
You are.
Oh, right.
You are a geriatric millennial.
Thank you very much.
I'm young.
I'm a youthful one.
And they go, oh my God, that baby give her a rattle.
And they go, wham, wah, wha, give me.
To be fair, Jaggy is wearing like a bib and like trying to do like a Muppet baby kind of look right now.
I think is it Muppet Baby Summer?
Like Jeff keeps coming in but it's just his legs.
Yeah.
Is it Jeff?
Yeah.
Muppet Baby Summer.
It's perfect.
Right on the heels of Brat, it's you're a braddy baby.
I am Braddy Baby.
I am Braddy Baby Summer.
Thank you.
Thank you.
The fucking not insanely old person.
And it's going to go well, guys.
So good stuff.
But what is the campaign?
Do you think that she's going to roll with the brat?
Like, do you think...
She'd been rolling.
Yeah.
I know that she's been rolling.
Like, I know the website has been changed.
The website has the color and the font.
I think that, I mean, what your point earlier about someone on her staff like must know that, you know, don't touch women's world with a 10-foot pole.
I think that the interesting thing, and don't worry, I'm not, I know this is not.
I used to have a politics show with my brother called Radio Dispatch.
This is not Radio Dispatch.
But I do think that one interesting thing about Kamala is that she seems to have some, you
awareness of what people are saying on Twitter.
Like, I honestly think posting some of the posts, they get to her, you know, and I think that
there is, I think that however you feel about her, I think that one effective, like, organizing
strategy is to have, is to hope to have somebody in office who responds to movements, even if you
don't agree with everything or many things about them, if they will respond to pressure.
And I think that Kamala actually, like, cares if everyone is making.
fun of her on Twitter in a way.
You know what I mean?
Like this has been like actually she's not 88 years old.
Yeah.
It's the bare minimum and we acknowledge that.
And we're fine.
Exactly.
The bar is in hell.
Guys, I'm not.
Please do not.
The bar is in hell.
Please do not think I'm standing for anyone.
I'm not standing for anyone.
No.
I'm trying to find the good vibes.
I'm trying to find the joy.
We're just trying to be positive about it.
Right.
Guys, come on.
We're smiling.
But I do think that whatever they,
she obviously has staff who is,
who are smart enough to know,
Brad is good,
women's world is bad.
And again,
that's more with it
than any presidential candidate
has been,
certainly since Obama, right?
So, like, I mean,
you know, I don't know,
it's just a different,
the pop,
Jackie sent a list
of all the celebrity endorsements,
the pop culture potential here.
It's already interesting.
The whole Kamala Brat thing.
And, you know,
before this all happened,
of course,
there was, you know,
these three weeks,
post-debate.
And since Biden stepping down of this huge effort, lots of which has taken place on Twitter of trying to get Biden to step down.
And there was like all these montages of Kamala with Brat.
And I'm not saying that that's what made it happen, guys.
But I am saying it is happening.
It's immediately better.
And I will say too, though, going back to it, just Katie Perry in her war room with her like weird team, right?
Just pacing around, staring out of a window over a city scape.
We know what's happening right now.
She's just like, why?
That was my one chance to get back.
Yeah, this is the song for this moment.
They nominated a woman.
I know.
And I still can't get the song over.
No.
It's satire.
Why can they see?
Yeah, hold it.
When you said, I want to imagine her war room.
I thought that you meant the presidential nominee, but you meant Katie Perry's war room.
And I love that.
Katie Perry's war room.
I love that.
She is definitely having.
full-on panic control.
Like, I mean, what are you going to do?
I mean, this, yeah, it's, again, though, her.
I just imagine all of her curtains are all ripped up in the home.
Like, she got so mad that she just, like, she attached her, like, knives to her hands like she was Wolverine and she just slashed around her home.
Dude.
But don't bring up Wolverine around her because that's going to make her think of how successful Deadpool and Wolverine is going to pass week.
Right, which is going to make her more upset, especially because she was like, that there's silly.
comedies.
I am satire.
I am satire.
She should have yelled that instead of I am Katie Perry.
Dude, Katie Perry, Jalo, team up for a collab.
Call it fuck all y'all.
And just say what you really think in your head about the people of the world.
I think we're ready for it.
Like Brat Summer, we want you to be bitches.
Be bitches.
Stop trying to make us happy.
Start trying to make us upset.
I think we'd be more into that.
You know, J-Lo, I throw away the plates every single day.
I throw them away.
I throw them away.
Kitty's just like, you know.
Ripping up the curtains, ripping up the curtains, kissing all the bitches and ripping up the curtains.
Like women, they piss me off.
I compete with them, you know, like.
And then everyone goes, brave, brave.
Brave.
Brave.
Brave.
Brave.
Brave.
I just can't wait for, like, someone to send in, you know, Wop to Kamala.
And she'll be like, what is this?
like wet arms parade?
Oh, so some wet arms parade.
Grab your bucket and your mop for this wet arms parade.
A lot of people, and by people, I mean, the weirdos that I follow online,
really want Kim Petrus's coconuts to be part of her campaign.
Oh, please.
I mean, listen, two weeks ago, if you had asked me,
is Charlie XX going to post Kamala is brat?
I would say, what?
Get out of my house, you know?
But now here we are.
Why are you in my house?
Yeah.
What kind of weirdo?
Comes into my house just to tell me about a tweet that was made, you know?
But, yeah, why is there a weird, like, clown sock on your peanut?
Like, what is happening in my house right now?
Why is my fucking house like this right now?
Yeah.
But, you know, I, Kamala is trying to get the youth vote.
I think that there's a big question of what will this do for the otherwise?
sinking ship that was the Democratic presidential campaign. And we don't know yet. It's too early to tell. But
put some Kempetris on it. It never hurts. It always helps. I did really appreciate. I was bringing this up before we started recording that David Hogg, who's a 24-year-old activist and co-founder of the March for Our Lives movement, tweeted out, the amount this single tweet may have just done for the youth vote is not insignificant. And I just want to say Charlie X-CX because we know that she listens. Thank you so much. Really doing a great job.
out there. And you're right, Kamala is brat. And I can really just like all fold into whatever they're
going to, like, is her husband going to start like living for rat boy summer? Like, is he going to start,
like, comes out with a broccoli haircut? That's what I'm saying. Yes, the pop culture. Smaller face. Can you
make it smaller, tighter? The pop culture potential here is huge because we do have a person now who I think
cares about how people are making fun of her online. And we got a lot of power here.
guys. As, as the people who talk about stupid stuff online, we're shaping the culture.
I mean, it's a brat girl summer, and we're lucky to be living in it.
And Woman's World fucking blows, dude. Yeah. Man. And somehow guilty pleasure's better than it,
which is blow in my mind a little bit here. But shout out to Jojo. You beat one person.
You beat Katie Bear. Everyone's calling for like, for like Sabrina Carpenter and Taylor Swift
to endorse Kamala, which at least as a recording has not happened. And I,
don't suspect. I mean, I think it's hilarious to be like the espresso person. It was like, it was,
it's like all these DC, Washington, D.C., political people being like,
someone get that coffee girl. Yes, where is the espresso. She made coffee? Corny, the dorks,
political dorks. Yes. All tried to start now all of a sudden being like relevant as soon as they
need these people. I've heard of Sabrina Carpenter. But I have not seen anyone trying to mobilize the
Jojo vote. There are dozens of them. We need to mobilize them. Yes.
There are at least dozens of them.
The problem is JoJo fans are literally lemmings.
Like you have to lead them to the polls.
Yeah, they can't vote yet.
Yeah, you'd have to put, like, make a candy trail.
You know what I mean?
To a, like, booth.
Yeah, that's a good.
Holden.
You know how they put the little stickers that say voting this way on the sidewalk on election day?
Make them scratch and sniff.
But, yeah.
Make them scratch and sniff.
I was going to say jewels, but scratch and sniff.
but scratch and sniff is more Jojo.
Yeah.
Oh, what are they going to smell like, Holden?
Uh, freedom.
Uh-huh.
Okay. Democracy.
So you mean just gunpowder?
Is that what's going to be?
Gunpowder and hot dogs.
Great.
Yeah, that's my freedom right there.
Now we're talking Jackie's language.
Jackie, I got a trail of stickers for you over here.
Yeah, I thought them all the way to the bank.
Things are about to get so weird.
Things are just about to get so weird.
Oh, I mean, we...
About to get...
Yeah, I was like, this whole year.
This whole, I don't know, the whole generation, I am just sitting here.
I think that the youth are really waiting for Glenn Powell to be telling them to start voting.
Because as of right now, man, Glenn Powell, enjoy these six days because Deadpool and Wolverine is going to debut and no one will be talking about you for at least three weeks.
I think so?
I feel like, I'm falling in love, okay?
I am maybe falling in love.
I think that's the problem.
I think I'm with you, Jackie.
I think that we're over here feeling defensive about Glenn Powell because we've spent the last several weeks being like, he looks like a rat and we don't care about him.
And now Twisters came out and now we all love him.
And I think that we're all having a bit of a crisis of conscience.
I think that I think he's hot now.
That has that happened like literally overnight.
The problem is in this marketing for Twisters, you listen to talking TV.
Twisters, not a good movie.
But here's the thing.
He's given me Bill Paxton energy, not talent, energy.
And the energy is coming from the viral marketing for this movie because they are putting,
they're hanging their hat on the fact that you're going to want to see this man in a wet,
white t-shirt.
And do you?
You are correct.
Yes.
You do see it.
You do want it.
He's so damn charming.
He has the talent, I'm going to throw it out there, of a paper bag.
Right.
But he doesn't really need it.
But the ris of a sexy dragon.
Honestly, man, I want to lick every scale, bro.
Because he is charismatic in interviews.
And that's the thing.
Not only is he charismatic in interviews,
but he really wanted to, like, support the energy, again,
of Bill Paxton on the set because of anybody that's anybody knows that Jackie Zabrowski
loves Twister.
one of my favorite movies of all time.
And canonically, Bill Paxton,
such a goof-a-m-m-ups on set.
Everybody loved him on set.
He was just like such a little silly billy,
he kept everybody chill.
And one thing that he did pick up
from the movie Twister
that he did on all of his movies
is he always liked it,
even though it's on the call sheet.
He always used to look up the weather
and tell everybody
what the weather was going to be that day.
Oh, of course you love that.
You wanted to be a meteorologist.
Yeah, I'd say you want to be a meteorologist.
That's nice.
So that, so my, I think, my love and lust for Bill Paxton is now, like, it's glooping off of him.
And really, Glenn Powell is only covered in, like, the pus and the dregs of my love for Bill Paxton.
But it's more than I expected.
And he loves his dog brisket.
You know, I want to say real quick, before we get into brisket gate, uh, why, how dare you?
Don't you put a gate on it?
dog killed a man in Cincinnati in 2013.
Don't you say it?
Brisket did nothing wrong.
We're in a season of gates right now.
There's definitely something wrong.
There's a lot of gas.
That dog gets something underhanded.
Before we even get into that, MJ,
have you noticed for someone who's so in love with weather tracking and wanted to be a
meteorologist, hardly ever do we get informed about the weather from this person?
True or false?
You don't care.
Neither one of you care.
I would love a forecast.
I would love forecasts from.
My husband.
has to hear me talk about the weather all the time.
I talk about the change in the clouds.
I talk about like when I just notice that the wind is taking them.
Oh, interesting.
Why is it going west today?
Wow.
Have I never heard of the change of the clouds?
It's true.
I did spend a lot of time.
You don't deserve it.
I understand you're not giving me a New York City weather report every Tuesday when we
record.
But I don't understand why I spent a lot of the last year in person with you.
And you never woke me up in the morning in the hotel room to say,
Here's the weather report, MJ.
Was I always appropriately dressed?
Maybe it's selfish reasons.
Maybe I don't want to include you, and it's because I know the look on your face.
Everybody knows.
Everybody knows.
If you have a love for something that most people give not one shit about, and I'm going to say
most of the things that I love, that is the case, you get used to the way their eyes glaze over.
You get used to it.
And you know what?
I didn't want to be used to.
do it anymore.
So there's certain things you guys have to deal with.
You hear me talk about how much, you know, I want to bang Bill.
We love that.
Yeah.
But no, you don't get the day in, day out, because that's saved for private.
What kind of, all right, at least tell us, what kind of a cloud gal are you?
Were we talking cumulus, serious?
Cumulonimbus.
I'm a cumulobus, yeah.
I mean, hands down.
When you watch those clouds coming in off the water, when you're sitting and you're
watching a storm rolling.
Right.
And it's just like an impending doom.
And you're just like, well, here it goes, boys.
Yes, we better just rip off our skin and live in Mother Nature.
That's where I'm ready to be.
You put skin on earlier.
Now you're taking it off.
I'm taking it off.
I'm being a bit of a Jenny any dots.
Let me have my rebel phase.
Hello.
Ed Larson and Amber Nelson from the brighter side here.
to check in with you, see how you're doing.
Is your day more disappointing than a gas station sandwich?
Are you trying to put one foot in front of the other in a glue factory?
Did you try to throw your air fryer in the bathtub, but nothing happened because you were too lazy to plug it in first?
Then the Brynter Side podcast is for you!
Oh yeah!
Each week we take nasty, dooky, stupid, dumb.
Stinky, no good, do-do factory.
Boo.
Kaka-like topics.
And try to find a funny.
find the brighter side. Hey, Amber, what's the brighter side of waking up chained to a bed in Russia?
Um, at least they have free health care. That's right. So start your weekend off right every Friday
with the brighter side on the last podcast network. You beautiful babies. Also, I just need people
to know, every so often I like to read Jackie's, a little, little highlight from Jackie's
emails on the show because they are so funny. And the very first sentence of Jackie's email this week
about the show.
I'm really bringing this into my own life.
Jackie said, I guess we need an appropriate T.W.
for this episode, and I do not mean trigger.
I obviously mean tornado.
Yeah, yeah.
The relief I felt.
When I first read, we need a TW for this episode.
I was like, oh, fuck, what happened?
What happened?
And now I swear to God, every time I need to give.
Usually I say content warning instead of trigger warning, but I will now.
It's a tornado.
Woo!
Can we please agree?
Oh man, if you feel it, chase it.
That is the what you yell in Twisters.
If you feel it, chase it.
And I yelled if you feel it, chase it.
And I wish that the audience could see the hand motion of the twister that they do in Twisters
multiple times.
And it does look like you are putting your finger up and ass to try to.
to scrape out.
Right, right.
Yeah, or fingering somebody.
Any, any orifice you want to get in here and get a cliqu and split.
Totally, but you can, I mean, this is close enough.
Oh, yeah, you go.
Well, yeah.
I'm manipulating different areas with different fingers.
What Jackie's doing involves one finger going round and around a bit like Red Wine Supernova,
you know, style, I think.
But, like, what Holden is doing is something else.
And I agree.
You give her the grip.
Yeah, yeah. Like mankind.
I'm just saying it's fine.
Frequently, you're going to want more than one finger.
But also the motion Jackie was, you know, you could do that if you're figuring somebody is all I'm saying.
You could swirl about in there.
Yeah, get the, you know, you was like, yeah, it's an F5 finger of God.
That's what you say while you are inside of that.
There you go.
With the finger.
That's a line from the original twist.
Tornado warning.
You both, again, glaze over the eyes.
You think, and you wonder why I don't talk to you about the cumulative.
I'm a serious cloud boy.
Could you imagine?
Because I'm a serious cloud boy.
Okay, so I don't like it.
Of course you are.
Yeah, because you may as well disintegrate into nothing.
Whoa.
Wow.
Roast.
Cloud roast.
Fuck you.
Cloud roast.
Tornado warning.
Jackie is definitely brat, by the way.
I'll definitely go with that.
Jackie is Bradwick is Brad.
It's brat.
I'm so, Julia.
I'm so, Julia, ah, ah, ah.
Oh.
What Julia is she talking about?
That has actually driven me nuts.
I think it's a Julia Fox.
Oh, okay.
It's Julia Fox.
Okay, that makes sense.
I was like, is it Julia Robert?
Is it?
I assume it's Julian Fox because she's in the beginning of, right?
No, that makes so much sense.
It's totally probably Julia Fox.
Wow, she got her in a song.
Now, can I ask you guys just a quick question?
Man, when I went to my, sorry, quick sidebar.
When I went in my worm time of Julia Fox,
she is really like a huge influencer.
Yeah.
When it comes to like the world.
Like actually influences like celebs and stuff in this weird way.
I thought that she was, like I only knew.
her as like, oh, she's got like, I thought that she didn't have a lot going on. I knew the baby
voice and I knew that she dated yay. And I am, I just need everyone to know that is not who Julia
Fox is and you should look into Julia Fox because she's actually done a lot of, uh, could you imagine
what it must be like to be professionally interesting at parties. I would love to be professionally
interesting at parties. We're not. No, we're very, no. No, we're never going to be that. But you
could talk if you want, I can start filtering you cloud information into an earpiece.
Yes, let's try that. And I walk up, let's try it right now. Hello, MJ. How are you having
fun at the party? Yeah, this is a great party. How are you, Holden? Tell, tell, tell. You should tell.
You should tell, hmm. You should tell. Holden, are you okay? Again, one more time. One more time,
one more time. Okay. Hi, MJ. How's it going? I'm all right. Holden. How are you?
There's a shelf cloud coming again.
You should be very, very scared.
You should be very, very scary.
You should absolutely run away.
No, wait, never mind.
I'm sorry, you don't know anything about shelf clouds.
You don't know anything about shelf cloud.
Actually isn't going to do anything to you.
You're a shelf cloud.
And if you did know something about a shelf cloud,
you actually wouldn't have been scared when I said that.
Scared when I said that.
So maybe we shouldn't be friends.
So maybe we shouldn't be friends.
Thanks for inviting me to your stupid party.
Fuck off.
I'm going home.
Thank you.
I didn't say that, poor shot.
MJ, I didn't say that for sure.
Hold him up the party.
He was the only one at the party.
Exactly. And then MJ's like, what's the secret?
You know what I mean? I need to be friends.
We're friends with this guy. I think.
I mean, certainly, yeah, it leaves one wanting more,
which I think is the goal after a party conversation.
I think so. I think anybody would listen to what we just did.
I was like, I need more of that.
I need more of that. I want to be scared.
because that's the thing.
You make so many more friendships out of fear than you do at a friendship.
And I think that that's what Jackie is brat is here to tell you.
I love it.
This is Jackie Brat summer.
You're welcome.
It's amazing.
Thank you.
I'm so Jackie.
Ah, ah, uh, uh, uh.
And all right, now we're going to talk about brisket because you will not take brisket away from me.
Allegedly.
I can't believe.
Why are you so against brisket?
I feel like both of you are giving me anti-brisket propaganda right now.
It's like when, you know, the person, there was a person in my neighborhood in college who had a dog that had little wheels on the back.
And everybody would stop and talk about, talk to him about the dog with wheels.
So, so annoying.
Why is that so annoying?
Well, the theory.
The dog is cute and the dog has wheels and the dog needs help.
This is so.
brat of you right now, by the way.
This is like the opposite of brat, Jack.
You're not brat. You're not brat.
I am brat. I'm being bratty
about the dumb dog on the wheels.
Here's what I'm saying. No one, everyone wants
to date the man with the dog who has wheels
and everybody will stop
calling me a rat if I have a cute little
dog. Everyone will stop wondering, why are you
suddenly famous? Glenn Powell, who are you?
Right. You know, you're not going to say that about
me now that I got a cute little doggy. That's all I'm
saying. It's literally save the cat
in real life. Like the save the
cat thing with scripts.
You have to do like some like generous thing.
The character needs to do something like literally save a cat from getting killed to like get
you on their side.
Right.
That's all Glenn's doing right now.
He saved a little dog.
I'm just a cute little dog man.
He did not do it to manipulate anyone.
He did it out of the goodness of his heart.
Who's going to walk that dog while he's on set, Jackie?
Totally.
I guess the dog's on set.
That's fine.
The dog is on set because everybody loves the dog on set.
Everyone's so excited.
See Brisket.
Brisket gets love all day, every day.
Brisket even has their own Instagram, okay?
Brisket is going places, and I feel like both of you are both intimidated and scared
of Briscuit.
And again, if that's not Brat summer relationships, I don't know what is.
What if I told you I have seen that dog wearing humiliation ritual clothing via the Illuminati?
What would you say that?
Do they consent?
I'm fine with it.
Of course the dog didn't consent.
Prisket, humiliated in a ritual.
I mean, that's what Glenn Powell's doing.
Yeah.
Glenn Powell.
He loves Prisket.
It's a nice dog.
He loves Brisket.
It's a nice dog.
It's so cute.
And again, I have overnight, literally overnight.
Yesterday I would have been like, I don't, I still don't want to know about Glenn Powell.
All I know he was in a rom-com with Sidney Sweeney and he's indistinguishable man.
And now I saw one interview of him with Hoda, which is, you know, Hoda's my weakness.
I'll follow her off a cliff.
but she is having a great time with him.
He's talking about the dog, where he got the dog.
Everyone loves the dog.
He's on set with the dog.
And I'm like, all right, Brisket and Glenn Powell, I'll ride or die with you.
Glenn Powell is brat, you know.
Brisket is brat.
I'm brisket is brat.
I'm brisket pilled.
I'm coconut pilled and I'm brisket filled.
I just like, it's not my fault, okay?
I have read so many articles about Glenn Powell in the last like five days just because twisters and a little other thing was going on this weekend.
It's been kind of other stuff is going on in the news.
And so surprisingly, not a whole lot in the pop culture department.
So I feel that they're really trying to make Glenn Powell the thing.
And sometimes when they really try, it fails.
But right now it's working for me.
And it makes me sad.
But sometimes, man, you gotta give in to be in a cog in the machine.
Yes.
You've got to give in.
Sometimes you're the oil and sometimes you're the wheel.
Do you only have one shirt?
Is that what's going on right now?
I think so.
I think I was thinking more like Pink Floyd.
You know what I mean?
Like I'm more like only brick in the wall.
Welcome to the machine.
I'm so Julia.
Uh-uh.
Yeah, well, just so you know, in case you're,
were wondering, what does it mean to be a brat? According to Charlie XEX, and this is so Kamala,
it's that girl who's a bit messy and loves to party and maybe says dumb things sometimes.
She's honest, blunt, and a little bit volatile. That's brat. Oh, man, guys. Oh, guys. Kamala,
wow, explains her to a team. Totally. It's so funny. Can I ask you guys about, I don't mean to put you
on the spot if you're not completely
versed with the lyrics of Brat.
But like how much, how many drugs
are, how much sex?
Like how funny is it?
Can we take a little time machine
back to the White House a handful
of months ago where they found
cocaine? Whose cocaine
do you think that was?
Clearly a Kamala.
Oh, it's a Kamala.
I'm so kamala.
Ah, ah, oh.
I'm just asking, how funny
is it in terms of aligning yourself
lyrically with this album. How much nose candy is there? You know, how much bathroom sex is there?
There's absolutely lyrics about like going into the bathroom with your friend to do a bunch of cocaine.
I think it's fantastic. That's what I was assuming.
Yeah, totally. It's a dance club album. It's a nightlife album. Yeah.
Yeah, man. Wouldn't change a thing. It's a having a good time. It's a bop, dude. Honestly,
highly recommend. It's perfect to throw in your like AirP
when you're in the grocery store and stuff like.
You're just like, man, I'm not middle-aged in the middle of the day at the grocery store.
No, no, no, not me.
I'm at the club.
I'm dancing all, not long.
And then you just like, you get wistful while you're at the Ralph's.
And then you start crying.
And then the produce guy asks you if you're fine.
And then you kiss him.
And then that gets weird.
And I go brat summer.
And then I feel all the apples.
And then I walk out.
I just, I need the next like montage to be the chapel.
Knee deep in the passage.
See?
Yeah, yeah.
Like that's the song.
No Chappel's getting tapped next.
Yeah, yeah.
All right.
Here's one of my favorite songs
of the album,
Mean Girls.
Okay, here's some lyrics.
Yeah, it's 4 a.m.
and she's out there,
Kamala,
with the razor sharp tongue
stuck to skinny cigarettes.
Calls him Daddy
while she's fingering a gold cross.
She's kind of fucked up,
but she's still in vote.
Kamala!
That is so,
Kamala is so brad.
That is so bright.
Yeah, yeah, that is so bright.
Oh, I love it.
Oh, man.
And I don't get me wrong.
I am here for this collab.
I don't want anyone to think my japeries or that I'm against it.
I'm very here for it.
Please get the youth vote.
Get it to be like get their attention.
Please love this.
She's in her mid-20s, real intelligent, hedonistic with the gravel, drawl, and dead eyes.
You said she's anorexic and you heard she likes when people say it.
You know?
Just couple of, just wants these.
start quoting it during like campaign speeches.
Like this is classic electoral college.
This is completely how, you know, I'm hearing polling and primary when I read this.
I, oh man, what a, what, we are lucky to be living in it.
I love that she was denied.
I love it.
It's the funniest.
That's the best.
I want to scream it from the mountaintops that she not only offered woman's world,
and then got denied or I don't know what the order of events but then still like posted up the the post of just like but guys post of my time hey hey guys please did you see i've got a song and it's called a woman's world please it would have been a big help and i did see reports obviously that she is like in a total scramble to try to salvage this era with her team and figure out what the fuck to do
You know, and I'll have to say about that,
karma's a bitch.
Should have known better than working with talk to late, dude.
It's your guilty pleasure, though.
So you had to.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
As guilty as watching Glenn Powell in that wet t-shirt in Twisters.
They almost cut the scene, guys.
And you know what I'm going to go ahead and say for both of you?
Because I saw this headline before going to go see Twisters.
He wasn't wet for that long.
Okay.
And he wasn't even that wet.
And forget my ignorance.
is he also in the Deadpool event or is that that's that's that event is going to by event I mean movie it
it seems like it's an event everyone's talking about it it's a bit of an event yes it's a bit of a cultural
event is that what's the relationship between Twisters and that are they in competition with one another
they are not Twisters was dropped the week before but everybody like they're really trying to
make Deadpool versus Wolverine or and Wolverine I don't know it's verse or and they're trying to make it very much
like a Barbenheimer kind of
go to the movie.
Like, you've got to go see it.
It's like, it's a post, they're really
trying to push it to be like,
the movie of the summer.
But then Twisters also was like,
but guys, we could also
be the movie of the summer. But no,
but it's not the movie of the summer. I see.
Twisters is not happening in the way
that the Twisters folks hoped it would happen.
It did. It was the, you know,
made the most money at the box office this weekend.
But Deadpool versus Wolverine,
is going to be this huge.
And also, I've seen the, it's one of the few damn movie trailers that I've seen
100,000 times that still I'm fine with watching, which means I'm going to go see the movie.
I'm not throwing out there, I'm not like a huge Deadpool person.
I don't really care that much.
I've watched them.
I've enjoyed them.
But I do love Wolverine.
So I am very excited about this movie show event, if you will.
Okay, thank you.
All right, now I feel up to speed.
As you get, I've been living in a, I've been in a, I reverted to my political, my, my, my, my first language of talking about things has been politics, not pop culture, the big surprise for a long time listeners.
And I've learned how to talk about pop culture.
But this, this week, I really, literally, I've taken over, haven't we, MJ?
Yes, we have.
We invaded.
The pop culture always wins in the end.
And it's for the best.
You have to have it.
Yes, absolutely.
It is.
It's for the best.
It's fun.
It also, it is, it is helping.
I mean, thank God because otherwise I wouldn't have understood this moment.
I would be watching that panel of all of the 50-year-old white political pundits discussing brat.
And I'd be like, tell me what is brat.
What is brat?
But thankfully, I know a little bit about what Brad is already.
And that's all thanks to page seven.
It's a hammered woman at four in the morning.
I just keep picturing that...
Being mean to someone.
I just keep picturing the video of Charlie X-E-X
saying that Rihanna is better than all the other artists.
I just keep picturing her and saying, Rihanna.
Rihanna.
I'm sorry, Rihanna.
I'm sorry, Rihanna.
It's Rihanna.
I'm Rihanna, like, number one stand, so it's always going to be Rihanna.
There was this video that we all watched of Charlie XX was asked to pick between pop stars
and every time she just kept picking Rihanna.
It has to be Rihanna.
It's always Rihanna.
And she really likes Rihanna.
So in case you were wondering a little bit more about Deadpool and Wolverine, by the way, it's not versus,
makes sense because they are working side by side.
In case you're wondering how someone would get to use the song, because I actually was curious,
and I did look into this, because like a prayer is used for the trailer.
And I was like, damn, like you don't see that very often.
and Ryan Reynolds did have to meet Madonna in person to ask for the use of the song
and she asked to see the portions of the movie where the song was going to be used.
And not only did she watch it and say obviously she said yes because it is used in the trailer,
but she also gave a note of what they should do with the scene that Ryan Reynolds was like,
oh, that's actually a really good idea.
And they do use it in the scene.
But what I love, because of course, marketing,
they are not telling you what note she gave
or what they changed about the scene.
So you're just going to have to...
I'm sure it will come out after the movie drops
because I'm sure people will speculate about it.
Wow.
But, I mean, I wonder...
I mean, this is...
I love this because it's been a while
since we had a positive story of Mount Banana
here on page 7.
Dare I say, it's been a decade.
It's been a long time.
We've been talking about her drinking out of doggy bowls.
I mean, she still did make him meet her in person.
But I think that's nice.
I think that's fun.
I will say it is still a big ass.
Yeah, then you get to meet Madonna.
I would love to meet Madonna.
Get to meet Madonna.
I mean, like a prayer is.
But I'm sorry, it's Rihanna.
I'm sorry.
I have to choose Rihanna.
Yeah, what they should do is they should take that video and they should change it so that
she's saying, it's Kamala.
It's Kamala.
It's Kamala.
It's Kamala.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
It has to be.
No, I just think this is, I think that this is one instance of Madonna being a diva.
that I think is kind of fun.
Like, you want to use this perfect song?
Meet with me.
But I'm just curious what note she gave
because, again, her judgment has not been, you know,
I would say on point for the last five to ten years.
And so I'm curious what the note was.
And if it was a good enough note that Ryan Reynolds was like,
you got it, Madonna.
I really want to know.
It's just like, bring Thanos back.
What?
What?
Talking.
Bring them back.
But she's drinking out of a cat dish and she's just like a little bit of Tuna.
Bring him back.
Bring him back.
I say, bring his ass back into it.
Like nothing ever happened.
They love when you do that in movies.
She's just, man.
She doesn't know what's going on.
She's just being propped up.
My favorite, there was another story about Madonna in the news
because one of her children left the nest and is 18
and he said that he was like starving on the streets.
And then he had to come back out and be like,
I'm not actually starving on the street.
It's like, it's fine.
I was just, like, saying that it's hard living on your own for the first time.
And so that was, which is essentially a non-story.
It is, it's a nothing.
It's just an 18-year-old being an 18-year-old.
Yeah, just 18-year-old.
I'm starving on the streets.
And just like, no, you're not.
And everyone's like, did Madonna abandon her child in the streets?
That's exactly what happened.
And then, so then the kid, I mean, the 18-year-old had to be like, that's not happening.
So, listen, I live in a mixed generational household.
I've talked about this before.
I am a millennial.
My husband is very firmly Gen X.
And in this house, we are not allowed to make fun of Madonna too much because he loves
Madonna.
That's how you know you live with a Gen Xer.
Wow.
Yeah, what is there just?
I don't get it either.
Personally.
I mean, I get it.
There are songs that are great.
There are songs that are great and that Vogue performance.
It's just one of those things where it's like he lived.
through that moment, to live through that moment
and to be an adolescent in that.
Like JoJo, like what we're living through right now with
JoJo. Yeah, just like Jojo.
Like Jojo, yes. Yeah.
The triplets by three different surrogates.
Are we going to talk about the triplets by three different
superiors? You can be gay and a pop star.
Yeah, but it's from the same batch, MJ.
Like, MJ, they're using from the same
batch, so it's fine. I need, I need
Jojo to, I don't want her to change anything else.
I just need her to stop talking about
her future children.
It's the only thing.
It's the only thing I don't like about it.
From different bodies, but from the same seminal fluid batch.
It's such a bizarre way to talk about surrogacy.
It's the hubris of thinking that you can time three pregnancies at the exact same time.
Okay, but MJ, she's 21.
It's a little brat.
It's a little brat.
I don't know if Jojo is brad.
It's giving.
It's given something.
No, Jojo's not up at 4 a.m.
Jojo's not doing fucking blot.
Locane brew, brew, it's brew now.
I changed bro to brew.
None of that, dude.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
No, Jojo is not Brett.
You know who's brat?
Cabela.
What is she going to do?
Because, like, I'm literally really, because, of course, she had to start with this.
Because I'm gay, and I have to plan a pregnancy much different than a straight person.
I actually want to take three eggs, fertilize three eggs, and have three surrogates.
So technically, they'll all be from the same batch, but they'd all be born separately, which I also
think is very interesting. What if like one takes and the other two don't? Like what do you, do you
throw away that child? Like what do you do with that one? This is why sex education is important.
These are things that honestly I never thought about until I was trying to get pregnant. You cannot
just be like, I'll time these things perfectly. You cannot, you don't have kids on a schedule,
buddy. You just don't. Even if you're doing it that way, you don't, it's just not how it works.
I will suggest this.
You know, when someone's extremely brat, when they say the word bitch, it comes out like batch.
Maybe she's actually saying that it's all coming from the same.
Like the same bitch.
Oh, yeah.
It's all the way to say I'm bad.
Same batch.
Because I'm gay.
I'm starting to say batch.
Yeah, this batch wants three kids.
Why is everyone?
This batch is brat and it's gay as fuck.
And it's far a year.
Especially while having the teddy bears on her.
tits, like while she's saying it.
It's just such a, it actually is
endearing because this is how
young people think about things. I used
to always think twins look so fun,
so fun, so fun, so fun, great, built and
so fun, so fun. Yeah, you get them both
done at once and know one of them got siblings.
What a duck from our five because I'm a batch.
I just, you know, you don't
think about how it might
be hard to have two at once.
You know, it might be
wonderful and rewarding and also have its
challenges. But you know, you go batch. M.J. Stop staring longingly out that window.
It's time with the celebrity conspiracy. Hit me with the share.
Ooh, do you believe it? Jackie's well aware of this one, had to slide it in. Was women's world
written for the Barbie movie? What a great conspiracy this is. It is a really good one. And
honestly, I just, I mean, I want to hear the conspiracy, but having a guess about what it's
about, we'd all just say, thank God. Thank God that the timeline happened the way it happened.
Well, I will say, funnily enough, though, it's Lizzo who ended up getting the song.
But if you are able to watch this TikTok, they perfectly line up the opening of Barbie
with Women's World. And it's uncanny. Really? How like perfect, yes, it's very, very, even if you end up
watching it later. But either way, let me get to do it. This one comes in from Kelly who writes,
Hello friends.
I showed this TikTok to my fiance
and he insisted I send this in
as a celebrity conspiracy.
We all love to hate atrocious
new Katie Perry song,
but what if I told you
it was written for the Barbie movie?
It works absolutely perfectly.
It works absolutely perfectly.
Oh my God.
It seems to fit the opening sequence
in Barbie land perfectly
as evidenced by the TikTok.
My fiancee thinks the original lyrics
were Barbie World instead of Women's World,
which I totally bet.
Wow.
But our feminist queens, Greta and Margo,
were having none of having Dr. Luke be in their iconic movie.
We think Katie Perry has been stewing about being passed over for the movie and said,
screw it,
I'm releasing it anyway.
Do you believe, does it make you like the song better?
No.
Wow.
I'm watching this right now.
I can't believe it.
I'm watching this right now.
This is insane.
I cannot believe it.
It would make me like the song better if it was called Barbie World.
It would.
That's a better song.
And Barbie World would work so much better.
It's a Barbie World.
it's a little similar to
it's a Barbie world
and not a Barbie girl a little bit
but like all right
I need to close this TikTok
because my mind is melting
I know right
only thinking about woman's world now
that's a very difficult also
I'm so sorry I just realized I fucking made you
listen to the song again
I didn't think about that part of it
I do feel like we just got bratted
but I understand
well I'm a batch I'm a batch
I'm a lover I know you are man
I'm a child of a mother
so much better if it's
it's a Barbie world
because, as we have discussed, ad nauseum here on the show,
it's not a woman's world.
And it, in that movie, is a Barbie world, and that's fine.
I'm so, Kamala.
Everything is better.
Everything is less annoying if it's a Barbie world and not a woman's world.
Yeah, for sure.
And, you know, the Lizzo song, Pink is the song that they use in the movie,
which is a lot of fun.
And the more funny, that's the funny thing, actually,
Lizzo kind of out-comodied Katie in that,
in her song even. It's satire holders. It's satire. Well, because Lizzo was funny in the song.
And, like, that's the thing. The music video was satire. And I think that this is the biggest
issue with this. The song itself, though, is not even really making, like, like, the Lizzo song is
funny. Right. Although I didn't like in the Lizzo song when she was like my dancers are dogs.
I treat my dancers like dogs. I thought that was a weird lyric. She did write that part.
But, like, I think they left that out of the credits. They waited for the end credits.
for that portion of it.
My dancers are dogs.
I treat my dances like dogs.
Pick.
I'm the pick.
I think that the song,
you're right, Jackie,
that the song itself isn't funny.
But the like garishness
of the song
makes more sense
set to the Barbie visuals.
You know what I mean?
It makes me not only enjoy,
like enjoy the song.
Yeah.
Watching it in that.
Please look up the TikTok.
Look up Barbie World.
Or look at Barbie Woman's World.
and I'm sure that you'll be able to find the TikTok.
The song, it makes the song makes sense in a way that the song doesn't make sense.
I'm, I'm completely in belief of this.
I'm, I'm converted.
Well, now I'm listening to Pink by Lizzo because I don't really even remember that song.
I don't remember it either.
Right.
It worked really well, like, in the, like, that's not the standout song.
It was perfect for the opening of the movie, though.
Uh-huh.
For the opening, yeah, it just has that a good vibe to it.
Uh, to wrap it up from Kelly.
love you. Thank you for all that you do to keep us smiling. Thank you, Kelly. Thank you, Kelly.
Thank you, Kelly. Kelly is Brett. And I think, yeah, we've, I think we, I think we, I just saw
too in the email, like, I think someone else wrote in about it. It's definitely a thing.
It makes, you know, it's nice when something like that happens and it's like, oh, the world makes
just like a little more sense now. Yes. Like, I feel like I woke up to a bit of a new day
hearing that theory and I can put
put things into a box a little bit better
in my mind than I could before.
So I really do like this Barbie movie.
Truly. Truly. And it doesn't change
my feelings about Katie Perry
in general. Right. But in the moment
of watching that, the two
set together, it does change my feelings about the song,
especially taking away the woman's world part of it.
So yeah, man, what, Katie, and I'll tell you what,
one thing I could suggest to you,
I've noticed Kamala wears a lot of pantsuits.
So what I think you should do,
shush, shush, shush.
Shush, shush.
What are you going to say?
Is it going to be bad advice?
Everyone loves a pantsuit album.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
Okay.
As is evidenced by Lena Dunham's incredible song.
Apparently she's no longer doing the Polly Pocket movie.
Thank God.
Thank God.
So that frees up some time for a collaboration.
Jojo, J-Lo, what are they doing?
Floating, free falling in space.
Okay, let's all get together.
Let's do the We Are the World for the new campaign.
And in a Pantsuit Nation.
Yeah, man, they could get shared.
Unless, like, the pantsuits, if the bottom half were Jinkos, I'd be completely into it.
Like, if it's a gene pantsuit.
Right.
But with Jinkos on the bottom, I think that's how you make it brat.
Like, how do we take pantsuits, make it brat?
Totally, exactly.
And I want them, I want them dragging on the floor.
I want Kamala to be like, yeah, I want her to have dirty jeans.
Yes.
How about chinkgo pantsuits?
That's what I'm saying.
Full chinkos.
That's exactly what I said.
On top two?
Yeah, full jean.
Full gene.
Okay.
All right.
Full genin.
Yes.
I love it.
I love it.
I want it big, wide.
I want them to take up space.
And I wanted to be almost like, remember in the show Doug when he was parading,
talking heads, it's not making sense.
when he puts on the big,
but I don't want them to parody
talking heads.
No.
I want them to parody
the Doug version
from the cartoon show.
Again,
that's great.
Giving Yon Jaze.
Gene justice.
Yes,
I'm a woman.
Yes, I'm a woman.
I'm a woman.
I'm a bitch.
I take up space.
Women can take up space
like a Jenko.
I think that's a winning.
Yes.
I think that's a winning
campaign slogan.
Yes.
All right.
Honestly.
And you know what?
Maybe Katie Perry
is the way she is
because Russell Brand had a tweet
that was just so racist, but he was trying to say melanin,
and he instead said melatonin, which I cannot stop laughing about it.
You are trying to be racist and you couldn't even get the racism.
Right, right.
It's not melatonin.
So are we putting all of this on Russell Brand because I'm fine with putting it on Russell Brand.
I think that we could put a lot of it on him.
Yeah.
Oh, you know what, we did not, and we don't need to talk about Elon Musk's thing that went viral on Monday.
but the Elon Musk interview with Jordan Peterson,
where we learn that the reason that this fucking fascist
is the way that he is,
is just because his kid transitioned.
And so honestly, there's a lot that we can put on Russell Brand,
Elon Musk, and Jordan Peterson.
And the Katie, yeah, the Katie Perry connection.
Curster for all time.
It's either him or Legales.
And I'm coming for you, Legalus.
Okay, I don't care if you can jump on a horse
and shoot up on a arrow.
His name out of your mother.
their fucking mouth.
It's sleepy time.
Oh, is he on a horse?
Should you put an arrow?
Oh, I want to slap you on stage.
Oh, I want to slap you on a stage.
I, um, it's not Legales's fault.
All right, it might be Orlando Bloom's fault.
Again, separate the artist from the art.
I think that's...
It might be Orlando's fault.
Yeah, we can be mad at Orlando Bloom.
Sure.
We can never be mad at Legales.
No, never.
And definitely Russell Brand.
So put it all on here.
Put it all on.
I guess we believe, I think that that almost certain
definitely did happen, but I guess it's time for the list.
Oh, who's on the list?
Jack A, you got to have that list.
We didn't even talk about the Olympics, but don't worry, we're going to talk about it on
the leftovers.
So come hang out over on pagerod.com forward slash page 7 podcast.
But this list is about the Olympics, celebs who tried really, really hard to become
Olympic athletes and if they made it to the games.
Wow.
Now, almost every single time the Olympics comes up, I know I bring up the fact that Gina Davis is an archer,
but I think it's super cool.
And I'm going to say the fact every single time.
Watching the 1996 Olympic Games inspired Gina Davis to take up archery,
practicing five hours a day for six days a week.
Within two years, she was good enough to try out for the U.S. Olympic archery team.
However, she finished 24th, coming close, but not qualifying for the 2000.
Olympics. This is so nice. I honestly feel like this is why everyone, like, this is why we should
have a universal basic income because everybody should be able to like see something and be like,
wow, archery, like as an adult and be like, I want to try it. I want to learn that. And then have
five hours a day to practice. It's great. I feel like archery is like a good like painting where it's
just this thing that you can, you know, I mean, hey, it's in the art of archery, right? Like it's
this thing that's very like meditative and this very precise. Yes.
practice. It feels spiritual.
It's serene. Yeah, that makes total sense. And yeah, like, I just, I love this for her.
I think that's so, I think that there's part of, part of you that sees you started practicing
five hours a day for six days a week. Like, why? But like, that's, that's just,
and not even to be like, yes, you did end up trying out for the Olympics, but like even to do,
I think it's so nice when, when you can do something that's not for, like, a means to an end,
but like just to enjoy it. And she probably means.
with like the Bilder
or whatever
and they hunt man
and you know
you got
the best way to hunt man
everyone knows
is with a high level
archery skill
It is a good skill
for when the apocalypse
comes
Completely
shoot people
through the heart
Right in the
or the cock
or food
I guess
and food
their knee
or you could shoot them
in their neck
or yeah
this mini place
In 2015 though
Bella Hadid
told Porter
Magazine
that she was training in hopes of competing on the U.S. equestrian team at the 2016 Rio Olympics.
However, in a 2016 blog post, her mom, Yolanda Hadid, said,
Bella had to give up her lifelong dream of having a professional writing career
and a shot at the Olympics due to her severe symptoms of Lyme disease.
So brat.
And inability to ride.
That is so brat.
That is so brat.
Definitely that's so brat man, Lyme disease.
Whoa.
Lime disease and everybody knows it.
She was being a bit of a brat.
Yolanda did say this was the biggest heartbreak of her life
and an extremely sensitive subject for her.
She is resilient and focused on a new direction.
She's made a name for herself in the modeling industry
while she struggles with symptoms of chronic Lyme every day.
Wow.
Chronic Lyme scares the hell out of me, man.
That's so scary.
It's awful.
It's awful.
Oh, man.
Kathleen Hannah, right?
That's her name, Bikini Kill, La Tigre.
She has a documentary and she got hit with it,
and it's just.
It's so scary.
Totally.
And it's just like, oh, she just was like out in the woods or something and a tick got her.
Yeah, she didn't notice.
It just happens.
Yes.
There's no.
It just happens.
It's like just a weird, fluky kind of thing.
Amazing that modeling being like one of the most famous models is her like backup plan.
Oh yeah.
That was her backup plan.
Yeah.
That's cool.
I mean, they're very rich.
Yeah.
That's definitely, yeah, rich person.
Yeah.
Usually like, you know, a question.
I'm not like, yeah, but I'm cheering for you, Bella.
That's, that's, I'm glad you found something else that's working for you.
Dude, Jason Statham competed in the Olympic diving trials twice.
Once for the 1988 Soul Games and again for the 1992 Barcelona games.
However, he failed to qualify for the Great Britain team both times.
This is why he was able to dive off all those buildings in Crank so easily.
I guess so.
And get to like,
banging publicly so quickly, maybe it has to do with his diving abilities.
For sure.
Diving in one way or the other.
In his trials, he, while diving, he would fuck a woman.
He was humping a hump and a hump and hopper.
He would literally fuck the woman while doing flips in the air and everything.
And, yeah, it was amazing stuff.
Man, if anybody could do it, obviously, it would be Jason State.
Oh, come on.
Well, growing up, Liam Payne was a dedicated runner with Olympic aspirations, waking up
at 5 a.m. and running five miles before going to school.
However, at 14, he just missed out on a place in the England school's team and decided to
pursue his singing dreams instead and auditioned for the X Factor.
One Direction, guys.
I was about Sam.
I saw all the glaze on your faces.
I know not this man.
Who is the men?
Yay.
Thank you.
I know Harry and I know Zane, but I don't know the others.
So thank you.
I am not Brant.
Yeah, you're being very unbrac.
Or is it brat to not know?
I think it is very brad to not know.
Yeah.
You're like, I don't care.
So you don't give a fuck.
Yeah.
You don't give a shit.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, you don't.
Oh my God.
MJ, do you want to do some cocaine with me in the bathroom.
I have just a little bit.
Let's do it.
And then let's run for president.
Let's.
It's 4 a.
It's 4 a.
It's for president.
Yes.
Do a line run for president.
And I bet that that's definitely what Vera Wang would do.
Vera Wang would do.
Vera Wang began figure skating.
when she was eight.
She was completely dedicated to the sport
and dreamed of representing the U.S. at the Olympics,
but she and her skating partner, James Stewart,
failed to qualify for the 1968 Grenoble Olympics.
This picture of her is terrifying.
Vera Wang is very scary.
She's a very severe woman.
I like to think that her skating partner, James Stewart,
was Jimmy Stewart, but I think it was probably a different gym.
I'm so I'm going to say in your eulogy, Jackie.
She was a, a.
severe woman.
No, I'm cuddly.
What are you talking about?
But she's also so chilly.
Ah, ah.
Holden, this is a sad funeral.
Okay, can we stop doing bits and material?
You can sing, please, sing brat at my funeral.
I would love for you to sing brat for me at my funeral.
This is good.
We have a note of what Holden wants at his funeral.
Now we have a note of what Jackie wants at her funeral.
She's so jelly, ah.
Ah, ah.
It's giving brat corpse.
That's what I want.
I want a big banner that says,
it's giving brat corpse up above the coffin.
She's serving cut brat corpse.
Thank you.
Yeah, thank you.
As of course, we do know Caitlin Jenner competed in the Olympic Decafalon twice,
representing the U.S. in 1972.
She finished 10th, but in 1976, she won the gold medal.
This is a funny one, because this is a funny one,
because this is really the only reason Caitlin Jenner is famous, you know, but sure.
It is funny that, yes, she happens to be on this list of like, yeah, I mean, I guess.
She was like this huge Olympian or something.
But one I did not know, Hillary Wolfe is most well known for playing Megan McAllister in the Home
Alone franchise.
She competed for the U.S. in judo at two Olympic Games, Atlantic in 1996 and Sydney in 2000.
I'm like, as we go through this list, I'm like feeling a range of.
of feelings. One of which is like, wow, this is like the, it's almost the opposite of what I felt
about what's her name, Gina Davis doing archery. Like these ones about the One Direction kid and this like
child actor from home alone, like also having to like work out on an Olympic schedule. You know,
there's part of me that's like, is this just like kids being forced to be both actors and
Olympi, like on an Olympic track? It feels like a lot of pressure. There's some, Gina Davis just being
getting into archery for.
the shit of it. Love that. Several children being like, if you won't be an actor, you'll be an
Olympian. I don't know. Maybe it's all, maybe it's all good, but I'm just like, you were an
actor and you competed in the Olympics? That sounds just like a lot of stress. A lot of stress. But I hope
that Hillary Wolf is doing fantastic and is retired now. I don't know. I would hope so, but it's
certainly stressed that Bob Anderson can handle. Bob Anderson was known as the top sword fighting
choreographer in Hollywood. Most famously, he had an uncredited role as Darth Vader's
lightsaber battle stunt double in the Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. As a fencer,
he represented Great Britain at the 1952 Helsinki Olympics. Nice. This is nice. That makes
he was able to make a little, you know, Hollywood career out of his first love. Like,
you're a top sword fighting choreographer, which at that time, I can't imagine there were many of them
in the business. And you still
found the time to be a
fencer on the British
fucking Olympic team. That's insane.
That's so cool. And it's like
I mean, he did the
Luke I am your father scene. Like literally
did the fighting. That's so cool.
I like that one. And maybe I'm more
intrigued by this because literally last night
I did watch three out of the four
hours of why the Star Wars
Hotel failed.
Maybe that's just in my brain.
And I, all
I can think about is the Star Wars Hotel.
But that's a story for a different episode.
Not right here, not right now.
Not right now because I'm losing my eyesight.
I think I'm going blind.
Items.
Oh, we can't see them.
This foreign, she's really foreign born.
Is that Canadian, probably three named actress is telling friends she's pregnant.
Life moves fast.
I used to even talk about her because she was so young, but now she's old enough to have
pregnancy.
Millie Bobby Brown.
Yes, linked article talks about.
She recently secretly tied the knot with Jake.
She's got an accent, Holden.
She's, I'm pretty sure she's very British.
She's fresh.
I don't know.
I'm assuming.
I know she's got an accent.
I think she's very much.
Maybe you're right.
I don't think I've ever seen her in an interview.
I just assumed.
And I made an ass of myself.
Yeah, you made an ass.
I made an ass.
After Minnie Bobby Brown, how dare you?
Well, we were talking before when she got married,
how she was so young.
And we're like, well, she's just getting married.
But now she's just having a kid.
And again, that's totally on track for many people her age in many places.
And so.
Especially when you get famous that young, life is fast.
I feel like we're too young to have children.
I think that the three of us are too young.
But the 20-year-old, I guess, you know, it's fine.
So, Julia.
You know, by the time she's our age, Jackie, she's going to be done.
She'll be done.
Yeah.
Lots to say for it.
Lots of safe for it.
I know, dude.
I see the people that are on the other side.
like, uh, why didn't I make the choice?
I'm like, I know why.
I was too busy drinking.
Yeah, but also I see them desperately trying to like live days they missed out on.
So I don't feel like that.
That's why they, then they go to Milt Manor and they get to.
Exactly.
They are living their brat summer.
Honestly, live it.
Can we give it up for the parents that are already done being parents?
For real.
I know you never stop.
Like once they move out and like now you can truly live your brat self.
I know.
Live brat.
I'm so happy for you guys.
And then they move back in and you can.
keep trying to desperately live this brat thing out.
Right.
And also,
but they're back in your house.
Also, if you launched your kid but they still live with you,
you still are brat, okay?
You're a brat, too.
You're a brat.
This is the world we're living in.
Kids can't always afford a place
to live on their own and you're still brat.
And you're still lucky to be living in it.
Lucky.
This permanent A-list actress,
who is an Oscar winner,
rarely does television,
but was willing until she learned
she would also have to appear on a reality show too.
She is...
She won an Oscar for a movie in which she gets banged so hard.
And she's going like a lot.
I don't, I hope you're not referring to the movie that I'm thinking of.
What?
No, it's not a R.
There's no a Ring in it.
Okay, it's not like in a bad way.
No, Jackie, what the fuck?
I get it.
My problem is that my brain.
I'm an animal.
I get it.
Who I'm thinking of because I'm thinking about.
I was thinking about this is Paul Hallie Berry.
I thought you were that bad.
That's a, that's an R?
Honestly, I don't remember that being an R.
I truly don't remember.
I truly don't remember.
I know that there's gratuitous sex in it because I remember seeing it with my mom when it first came out and I was insane.
It was rudely embarrassed.
It was so gratuitous, but there was no art.
That's all I remember from it.
Well, it was Hallie Berry.
No, I don't remember.
It was Hallie Berry.
Wow, I was over here defending you.
I also thought that movie was about sexual violence, isn't it?
Is it?
I don't remember.
All right, well, egg on my face.
All right.
I just remembered having an extreme sense.
sex scene in it that was like so over the top.
But, who knows?
None of us remember because we were all
adolescence when we saw it.
Yeah, because it came out in 2002.
Yeah, we were all mortified.
Yeah.
I was like 15 years old.
We all saw it with our parents
because it was an Oscar movie.
Yes, with our parents, yes.
That's why none of us remember.
That's why none of us remember.
I think I actually take it advantage of it.
I think I actually did block out the entire movie.
The only thing I remember is Billy Bob Thornton,
Halliberry were in.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Well, apologies if it was.
not a, it was not above board. But yes,
Halliberry, and it would be
working with an actress who's
a quote unquote, a big air quotes
on actress, who's more known for
her reality TV series that
is doing acting lately.
So this would force.
Kim Kardashian. Yes. And it's
all's fair, Ryan Murphy's
legal drama. And Halleyberry
recently dropped out of it. And I didn't even think about
that because like, yeah, now there's like,
Hallie Barry's like, oh, fuck this. There's like a
reality TV crew showing up
set because Kim's...
Oh, no, no, no, no.
Right? Could you imagine getting like a role on something and then have to just force to be a part of some shitty reality show?
Especially Hallie Barry.
I mean, that's so I feel like in part because what I remember about Hallie Berry is like her being the first black woman to win best actress and like becoming this really like I feel like she's always been such a kind of like, like, you know, she's used.
Yes, exactly.
That's exactly.
She's a class.
I keep thinking of the line and singing in the rain when.
they go dignity. Always dignity. I feel like Hallie Berry is just like such a, you know,
a dignified, serious actor. And to think of her then interacting with reality show crew and just
being like, you know what, I don't need to do this. I'm Hallie Barry. No thank you.
It is funny that you're saying this literally. She just did this interview of her. I forget what one of
the celebrity gossip sites that I look at, she did an interview talking about Catwoman.
and like her experience with Catwoman because it was such,
because I do see Hallie Berry as that person,
but then there's Catwoman.
Then there's Catwoman.
And like to a boy that she did accept the Razzie for Catwoman,
because again, class act.
Yeah.
She's like, all right.
Yeah.
You know what?
I still won the award.
I'm going to show up for it.
Class act.
Class act.
But also very surprising.
Glenn Close is also attached to All's Fair.
and curious to see if she's, I guess, is going to be down to be in keeping up with the Kardashians?
I don't know, man.
All right.
Let's, let's, I don't know.
Glenn Close.
I've been a little bit mad at Glenn Close ever since Hillbilliology.
I kind of want to, I mean, it popped back up on Netflix and for some reason people brought it up again.
I kind of want to go watch it.
Because the VP, Trump's VP, wrote that book.
Oh, that's my.
Oh.
Oh, no.
And it's a memoir.
I didn't know that.
So what happened was, yes, J.D. Vance wrote that book.
It's a memoir.
And there is like to the, it's a, it's a, in the, the premise of the book is poor people in Appalachia are poor because they are lazy.
That is literally the premise of the book.
But it begins with like a somewhat interesting storytelling of his childhood.
And that's what Ron Howard made the movie of.
But everyone, a lot of people.
at the time, we're like, Ron Howard, why are you doing this? This man is, like, his politics are
really, really messed up. And then he made that movie with Amy Adams and Glenn Close. And it was
like stupid even without the politics. It was just like an over-wrought Oscar-Rab. Yes. People
made fun of it. Yeah, yeah. It was so stupid. We all call it like a fake 30-Rod
like movie. Yes. Yes. It was like it's up there with MilfMe. Yeah. Yeah. But yes,
that is but then the rest of the book even if you were moved by the storytelling part which many
liberals were the rest of the book the conclusions that he draws are there is a culture i think the
subtitle is uh the the story of a family and culture in crisis it's all blame the people blame the
people stuff you know poor poor people are poor because they're lazy stuff um but then yeah ron
howard made this movie and everyone was like what are you doing um yeah hillbilly elegy a memoir of a family
and culture in crisis so the crisis is
that they don't work hard enough, according to J.D. Vance, which is, you know, I don't agree with that.
And I don't think that Ron Howard should have made the film, because it put a little bit of
legitimacy into the stupid-ass book. But then everybody made fun of the movie. So anyway, I've been,
I can't look at one close.
Don't worry. It did not do that. It got assed. It got completely asked.
I can't think about Glenn Close without thinking that she's me-m-law from Hillbilly Alleyology.
Although it is very funny, 25% on the tomometer, but 80.
percent audience score.
It's one of those.
They did one of those.
It's actually good.
I saw it.
I liked it.
All right, Bill Clinton.
I don't know why you're here.
Oh, I thought it was good.
I don't know if Bill Clinton would like it.
He would like it either.
By the way, a lot of politics today.
It's not going to be probably politically filled.
But we have, I mean, it is what's for dinner.
It's historic.
It's what's for dinner.
It's what's happening.
And it is funny.
how much it ties into pop culture. Okay.
But next up, the last one,
ooh, you guys are gonna fucking
shit your pants.
It's not that serious, actually.
The depressed singer with the
serious hardware is taking
meetings for a new management team. I don't know what the
hardware comment is.
Who's moody?
Billy. Yes, Billy
Ilish. Fans in the UK have
lashed out about the singer's three-night run
in the London O2 Arena due to the
high ticket prices. There are a ton of
seats left unsold as fans are refusing to pay the hundreds of dollars set on the seats there.
With the cheapest ticket going for 234 pounds for a standing ticket. Of course, she's not the only one.
Of course, Taylor Swift doing the same and way worse. And I want to give a shout out to Beyonce,
because I didn't realize this. I don't know how whatever, I don't know what the comparison in different
places is, but apparently she had seated tickets at the same arena for 56 pounds standing for
106 pounds and actually keeps it. And this is a big, this is really pissing me off.
Like, I don't get it. I'm so happy the bubble's starting to burst on the live concert thing.
People are starting to finally refuse to fucking throw down the absurd amounts of money that is,
these ticket prices have gotten up to lately. Like, every time I look up a show to go see,
I can't afford any of them. Yeah, I'm so disappointed by how expensive they are. It's like,
it makes no sense. This is like,
completely absurd. So I'm glad. I hate that it's Billy, and Billy get a new management team for sure.
And I hate that. And I don't, I also don't, I feel like Taylor Swift is just as if not way more
guilty of this. Like, it's absurd. It's too much money. It's pissing me.
Because before you said the thing about Beyonce, I thought I was wondering, like, is this something
that Billy doesn't have control over because of the, but this is, you're talking about the UK.
So we're not even talking about the live nation ticket master monopoly here in the,
US, right? I don't know. I mean, I don't know. I don't know. And to the extent to which she has
control over it. Yeah, I'm hoping that monopoly is also getting broken up. I know they're working on that.
It's so dumb. Like, I know it's ridiculous. It's just live concerts, but it's just like, I can't go to
them anymore. I will throw it out there, though. Man, but hit me hard and soft is such a good album.
I've been just slinking in it in the dark, just not looking at the sun, just being like,
this is where I want to be.
It's solid.
I like it.
I do wonder, though,
that it kind of feels a little under,
uh,
its release is,
is underwhelming compared to Cowboy Carter and like,
uh,
brat and some of the others.
So I wonder if she does need to like,
get a better team.
Because I,
yeah,
I kind of feel like it,
it got passed by too in a certain way.
But maybe I'm wrong.
It did get swallowed.
Yeah,
kind of got swallowed a little bit.
Right now, like what's happening in
pop music right now,
you've got to explode it.
Like, it's no, like, there is no
room for someone that just drops an album.
Yeah, and it's great album. So,
at this point in time in pop music. Yeah, and it's, it's not
because the album is not good.
No, it's an amazing album.
Well, there you go. I can see you again. And I'm beloved.
Yeah, and I'm, and I'm so Julia.
Oh, oh, oh my God.
Please, you're so calm.
I'm going to be singing that to myself.
Oh, Pantsuit Nation. Where my pantsuit.
Stop saying pantsuit.
That's a different arrow.
That's different.
We're in a new, we're in the, we are taking up space.
Jekko suit.
She wears a suit.
She wears up.
She also wears them.
She also wears.
Yeah, man.
We are, I cannot believe, our evolution over the course of even just the last few weeks
from, you know, women's world to Kabbalah.
I think it's, I think we're doing, I think, I think we're on the frontier here.
We're on the cutting edge.
Yeah, we'll see.
Well, is she on Epstein's list?
We'll find out next week on page seven.
Yeah, we're going to find out live.
They're actually sending the research directly to us.
It's like an Al Capone's Vault episode.
So few of you will probably get that reference.
But if you do, Geraldo thought he was going to get a big,
okay, it was a live TV event that happened in the 80s?
Yeah, it was the 80s.
No, it's like, it's like, it's like last week,
we did our big show last week.
And remember, we record on Tuesdays, show drops on Thursday.
And then while we were recording the leftovers on Tuesday, we found out that Ingrid, what's her name, was drunk during the national anthem.
Ingrid Angeles.
Oh, yeah.
Was drunk during the national anthem.
And we found out live whilst recording on the leftovers.
And then a bunch of people were like, guys, you were making fun of her, but she was drunk.
But we didn't know.
We were in the past.
We didn't know.
And, you know.
I don't take back what I said, though.
I don't take back.
No. I think that it's fun.
And I wish her a wonderful recovery.
And I do still think that that was a real fun experience.
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
But definitely go get help.
I think that it's wonderful and beautiful.
Go take care of yourself, girl, all right?
But this has been our episode of this week's page seven.
Thank you guys so much for hanging out with us.
As always, my name is Jackie Zabrowski.
You can come hang out with me over on my Instagram, Jack That Worm.
And you can hang out with MJ and I.
We are hanging.
If you got this, if you're listening to this episode today,
we did today an extra stream, but you can go back and watch it, of us screwing around with the love
expansion pack on the Sims.
This is big news, guys.
And for those of you that don't give a sheet about the Sims, I'm sorry.
But for those of us that do, I salute you.
Because this is a really big week if you love to woohoo and you love the Sims.
So gear up, y'all.
we are ready and we are woo-hooing.
Yep, get your gear, y'all.
Hold it.
I'm just happy about the gear.
Also, what gear did Billy Elish have?
Is that the one that said that with all the gear?
What, uh-huh?
In your blind.
Oh, yeah, the hardware.
I don't know.
With all the hardware?
Hardware.
Yeah, what hardware?
Sorry.
No, no, good question to bring up.
It's weird.
I don't know.
Yeah, I read that.
I was like, why did that make sense to me
when I first read the blind?
And now I'm like, with the hardware?
What are we saying?
She's like a cyborg.
Anyways.
I mean, awesome.
Twitter's Holtz, Holtz, Ho,
Jack up at the Holdies,
every Friday usually,
but it's gonna be Jackie's Eve.
I'll be at Comic-Con.
Check me at Comic-Con.
Escaping the algorithm,
1 p.m. on Saturday if you're in San Diego.
So is there like a stream, Holden?
Is there any way to watch you?
Because Holden is doing a panel at Comic-Con.
Yeah, I don't know that it's streamed,
but if you are in San Diego,
it's called escaping the algorithm.
and it's at 1 p.m. on Saturday.
And just look it up.
I'm sure if you Google escaping the algorithm, my name, it'll all pop up.
Surely there will be page 7 fans at San Diego Comic-Con.
I would hope.
Yeah.
Check it out.
Please show up.
Because I don't know who's coming to this thing.
So it's please show up.
We're not like, you know, we're not quite in the same levels
as the new MCU announcements or whatever they have going on on that day as well.
But yeah, I'm really excited about it.
What else?
Patreon.
So exciting.
Yeah, very cool.
Patreon.com forward slash page seven podcast.
Weekly bonus episodes, all that good stuff.

Keep those conspiracies coming.
Boom!
Goes the dynamite?
That's, we're bringing that back in.
Yeah.
That's so, Julia.
M.J.
My name is MJ, and I'm MJKLKKat on Instagram.
To the song!
Shout, shout.
Let it on.
all out.
These are the emails that you're running about.
Come on.
I'm going to read that to you.
Come on.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's time for the shoutouts.
And you can send in your own shoutouts to page 7 podcast at gmail.com.
We love hearing from you guys.
We love your wrecks.
We love your photos.
We love your high hellos.
Page 7 podcast at gmail.com.
And of course, you know where?
love your shoutouts. And oh, our first shout out is one of love. And this is coming in from Devin.
Devin says, my wife and I love page seven and all of your hot takes. We've also taken advantage
of your fabulous shoutouts on more than one occasion. The 25th will be four years that my wife and I
have been together. We live in Las Vegas. Yes, we saw the page seven show when you guys came through.
but she's currently in New York for a month for her big girl job because she's so awesome at what she does.
This will be the longest we've been apart since we met four years ago.
I would love it if you put in a shower for her.
Yes, I don't even know if you meant me for me to read this part, Devin, but it made me smile so I did and I love your love.
Devin says, dear sweet Rachel, even though I already miss you so much, I'm so proud of you.
I love you and the life we've made.
and I can't wait to have you home.
Keep kicking butt and I will see you soon.
You are my favorite human ever.
Love Devin.
Oh my God.
I love y'all's love.
Happy anniversary and you're going to be back together.
I know distance makes the heart grow fonder and it's annoying as shit.
But just think you're going to be back in each other's arms so soon.
The month is going to fly.
And as someone that spends a lot of time away from my face,
favorite human ever, I completely understand.
Sending you both so much love.
Thank you for the shoutout.
Oh, I love, I love.
We've got a shout out coming in from a bestie.
This is coming in from Courtney.
Courtney says, I want to shout out my best friend, Hannah, for her birthday this year.
July 31st!
We've been best friends since we were 10, wound up at the same college together,
and somehow still haven't gotten tired of each other.
She is the funniest, most sarcastic person and is always committed to the bit.
In middle school, she would bug me to stay up until 1 a.m. at sleepovers so we could watch
Saturday night live and laugh at sketches we were too young to understand.
Now, obscure SNL references are like half of our shared vocabulary.
Her parents lived five minutes from my parents in high school.
We were college roommates.
Then we lived in the same apartment complex after graduation.
About two years ago, she bought a town home with her husband and moved 45 minutes away.
It's the furthest away she's ever been, so making time to see each other is hard.
But we bond over our last podcast parisocial family all the time.
We've seen the boys of last podcast live and saw the beautiful faces of page 7 on your but old cut door.
So thank you LPN family for giving us a way to stay in touch and laughing our asses off every week.
After you say happy birthday to someone over 22 years, it all starts to sound the same.
So what?
Who cares, right?
But I'm hoping this shoutout can be a new way for me to tell my best friend,
Happy birthday, baby!
And I know it'll mean a lot coming from a fellow raspy, deep voice bitch like Jackie.
Happy birthday, Hannah, love Courtney and Jackie.
We both love you so much.
And it sucks.
I completely understand. My bestie is completely across the country and it's hard.
And you think, oh, just like jump on a Zoom, but we never do. And then we'll go two months without
talking and then we'll talk on the phone and be like, I miss you. And is that not how an adult
friendship is supposed to be? Anyway, moving on to our next shoutout. This one comes in from Megan.
Megan says, I'm sending this shout out to wish my brother a happy birthday. His
birthday is July 28th, and this is the fifth year of celebrating without him. He lost his battle
with addiction five years ago, about a month before his 26th birthday. My brother and I were best
friends, and his death hit me hard. It was even harder because I was eight weeks pregnant,
and hadn't even announced the pregnancy to the family when he died. To say that the last five
years had been difficult would be an understatement. Donovan died June of 2019.
Then I had my first son in February of 2020.
Being a first time parents struggling with grief and postpartum would have been enough,
but the universe said more and the pandemic just really topped it off.
There have been many ups and downs and a lot in my life has changed for better or worse.
Donovan was such a light in this world, and of course as a Leo was loved by everyone he met.
He really had so many people who loved him and there will not be a day.
that I don't wonder what his relationship, what my children would have been like.
I've spent so much time being mad at him for leaving me.
But after a lot of therapy and processing, I am finally starting to feel some peace about it.
I want to celebrate him rather than his loss,
and I'm looking forward to dedicating a couple of songs to him this Friday on Jackin' with the Holdies,
and I can't wait to be with you when you do, Elisa May, sending you so much love.
I just wanted to take a moment to say how grateful I am to Jackie, MJ, and Holden.
I found page seven after panicking when Akitar Deep Dives was coming to an end
and wondering how I was going to keep hearing Jackie and Natalie on the reg.
Unfortunately, Natalie's podcast is too scary because I'm a huge baby,
but page seven was right up my alley.
I wish I had found y'all sooner.
I'm so excited to listen each week and really appreciate the vulnerability you bring to the podcast.
I've been so grateful to have found this community you've built.
I love having a page 7 Friday where I binge all three episodes and try to hop on the live and say hi.
I've also started Good Pood, which brings me as much joy because Henry and Jackie, since of you,
reminds me so much of my brother and I, and I just know he would have loved it as much as much as I do.
Sending you so much love, Megan.
You guys deserve to be number one sibling duo, and thank you.
So do you, Megan.
I love you so much.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us, and thanks for hanging out with us on Friday.
I know obviously it'll never be enough,
but I appreciate that you turn to us and our community
to be there for you, to support each other.
We're here for you and we love you.
And sending you so much love in light, Megan.
And don't worry if page seven and the many, many years of page seven isn't enough,
Crescent City, deep dives will be coming to your ears soon.
And I can't wait, don't worry, babe.
You're never going to see the end of us,
Whether that's good or not, it sounds like a threat, but I meet it in a positive fun lightweight.
Ooh, baby, you know what that's worth. Yeah, I guess heaven's a place on earth, but also I love a self-shout.
Meg says, this is a self-shout for pure resilience. Hell yeah, Meg!
Five years ago, I was a 20-something divorced college dropout.
I rented a room from my manager slash roommate who never cleaned up after herself or showered
and worked until midnight for $12 an hour for an employer that treated me like garbage.
I was an alcoholic, suicidal, and self-destructive.
Then I met my soulmate at that same crappy job.
Five years later, we're married.
Both working jobs we love, just bought our first house and tried for our first child.
I even finished my bachelor's degree 12 years after dropping out of college.
Our relationship has survived
to both of us losing jobs
and a huge medical scare
and we've come out stronger than ever.
I knew there was a reason I kept fighting
and I'm so relieved to have finally found it.
Thank you guys for airing these self-shoutes
and giving people the empowerment to speak up for themselves
and thank you to everyone in my past
who made me feel worthless.
You gave me the spite I needed to keep pressing on.
Thank you.
you, thank you. And thank you, Meg, so much for sending this out. And just as a reminder that even
when we are in our darkest times, it's so hard to see the light. And there's light in the future.
We just have to remind ourselves and keep striving for it. So proud of you, it's so hard to
work on yourself like that. Hell yeah, Meg, sending you all the love, dude. And our last shout
out goes out to Bree, even though the shoutout goes out to us, which thank you so much, Bree. Brie says
there truly are so many concurrent bummers unfolding most days.
Now that we've entered the quote,
always unprecedented times, time,
I had to take a minute to appreciate you all out loud.
Looking forward to listening to page seven and now talking TV
has remained such a bright spot in my week
since I was introduced to the show at the beginning of lockdown March 2020.
Listening to the beat, beat, bitch episode
made me remember and feel and appreciate all the standout episodes along the way
where your friendship dynamic is the star of the show.
It feels so cool to get to listen to you all growing and evolving as individuals
and as a group of people with a parent-lover each other.
Consider this a shout-out to all of you for letting all of us listen in on the fun.
You all rock and have made me feel sane in insane circumstances.
Thanks, Bree, and sending so much.
love to you Bree. Thanks for sending the shout out. I really appreciate you taking the time
just to hit us up. And I thank you. And I think all of you for hanging out with us every week.
We would not be here if it weren't for you. And I just want to say, thanks so much. Love you guys.
And I hope you're having a beautiful week. And don't worry, we'll be back soon.
