Starting point is 00:00:08 Like the party. Like party. We like the party. The Vanga Bus is coming. Everybody's jumping. The York of San Francisco. It's an interstate free disco, guys. This is, it's an oldie but a goodie.
Starting point is 00:00:28 But the Vanga Bus has been stuck in my head a lot. I think it's just because it's the beginning of spring, summer over here. But on top of that, do yourself a favor. And if you don't want to deal with the hangover or the call, or just like the life cost of doing an eight ball. Listen to all of the Vanga Boys' greatest hits. And it's like you did one. My name is Jackie Zabrowski.
Starting point is 00:00:51 Welcome to page seven. My name is Molly Neffel, and I'm surprised to learn that you associate the season of spring with the Vanga boys. Yeah. Yeah, dude. My name is Marcus Parks, and I did not know that the Venga boss is in parentheses
Starting point is 00:01:06 in the title of the song. It's actually called We Like to Party. We like to party. Welcome back, Marcus. We like to party because you are back with us. Well, yeah. We miss you. Yeah, I've missed you.
Starting point is 00:01:20 What is the Vanga Bus hook? Like, it's because, you know, it's like there's the do-dur-d-do-do-do-do-d-d-d-d-d-d-t. It's not that, is it? No. It's the six-flag song. Yes, exactly. It's the six-flag song. Also, not unlike the hamster dance, but it is different than the hamster dance, but it's in the same kind of uvra.
Starting point is 00:01:39 Yeah. I see. I see. The old one. That old. Man, what was it? What was the name of the Six Flags old man that was like, Shauzeh, Six Flags? I still remember those commercials because it was the time that I most wanted to go to Six Flags. It's like a horny tween, you know?
Starting point is 00:01:59 Oh, yeah. More screams, more fun. Six Flags. I didn't know he hadn't. Do you mean what is the name of the man who plays him or what is the old man character name? Good question. I figured he had a name. I don't think he had a name of the commercials.
Starting point is 00:02:14 He was just an old guy near a van, right? My name's Bumbles, Mupple's Mdip. I'm here for six flags. They call me, I love my dips and streets. I feel like, why did they choose an old man then? Now I'm curious. Because we're still talking about it almost 20 years later. I mean, you damn straight, we are.
Starting point is 00:02:37 I think it was like a time where the aesthetics of, like, randomness was peeking, you know? Yeah. His name is Mr. Six. Yes. She beat me to it. I had it on deck.
Starting point is 00:02:52 I can see that. There was a race happening between the two of you. I did not know he had a name. Yeah. Mr. Six. You know who I'm picturing, though, is that guy,
Starting point is 00:03:04 different old man, the guy in those commercials also from the same time period who, sold that book and he had a suit that was all covered in question marks. It was a book about... A book about... Free money from the gunwreck.
Starting point is 00:03:18 Yes. Because that other... Mr. Six's suit wasn't covered in question marks, but he wore like wacky suits, didn't he? No, he just wore a bow tie and a regular suit, like, because it was a formal occasion. Uh-huh. Okay. I feel like that was the whole thing, though, is that it's supposed to be like, even this old man gets a boogie in his step if you go to Six Flags. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:03:39 But he didn't have a boogie. in his suit. I was always just scared of having to deal with him. I was scared of seeing him at the Six Flags. You thought he was like the Mickey Mouse of Six Flags? Yeah, I think so. That's some Disney minded shit, Jackie. That's only somebody who grew up going to Disney all the time would think that. Oh, God. So I didn't realize that it was because Six Flags had a contest to find a person who can impersonate the new Ambassador of Fun. And they found this like 13 year old. I'm going to stop reading about this. It's starting to freak me out. Just imagine a 13-year-old being like, I want to be Mr. Six.
Starting point is 00:04:14 I can dress like Mr. Six too. I mean, maybe he's a, maybe he's a fun dude to have around. I don't know, man. Well, the guy in the commercials, his name was Danny Teeson, and he actually signed an NDA when he started playing Mr. Six. He couldn't tell anyone for like 10 years that he was Mr. Six. Because they didn't want the illusion of Mr. Six to be dispelled. Did he look totally unlike Mr. Six in real life?
Starting point is 00:04:43 I mean, Mr. Six is an old. He's got old man makeup on. Uh-huh. In fact, this guy said that he was performing at Mr. Six at Six Flags Over Texas as Mr. Six at Six Flags Over Texas. And he was dancing next to a woman that he had known for 20 years and she had no idea it was him. Really? Yeah. That's real commitment, man.
Starting point is 00:05:03 I've learned it so much in the last five minutes about Mr. Six. I can't believe it. And he ended up choreography. for the lights of Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, and Paula Abdul. You're telling me that Mr. Six was not an old man. He was a young man. He was a young choreographer. What?
Starting point is 00:05:19 I mean, he definitely had old man makeup on. Yeah. No, that wasn't an actual old man. I'm struggling to come. Can you bring up a picture of Mr. Six by any chance, Marcus? I'll bring a picture of Mr. Six. In fact, why don't we all watch a little Mr. Six Flags commercial together? I'm ready.
Starting point is 00:05:40 I'm struggling. I'm going to look like a total idiot. But in my head, I thought he was a real old man. Oh, yeah. No, this man, he is 1,000% a young man winning. Which one do you want to watch, Marcus? It is a bustle article. It's implanted into a bustle article called Who is the Six Flags Dancing Man. Got it. All right. There once was a town that worked so hard.
Starting point is 00:06:04 There was just no time for play. No. But that all changed on this one particular. Yeah, put the. kids to work. Save us, Mr. Six. Six Flags bus comes up and who comes out? Oh, there's an old man.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Oh, God, he can barely move that old man. Move it on his face. I stand by. I thought he was an old guy. Yay, it's Six Flags time. Old man dancing. Oh, yeah, I get it. You thought there was an old man doing these moves.
Starting point is 00:06:39 You know? I still do, to be honest. He's got the hands of a young man. Yeah. Except you don't get on a bus with a man that looks like that. I don't know. Wow. No, you never get on a bus with an old man.
Starting point is 00:06:57 I can't believe. I can't believe that he's a young man. Hey, kids. Ross Perot's here and he wants to take you into the theme park. No. Who wants to go? Get in the bus with Ross Perot. Can I, since I've learned so much about Mr. Six,
Starting point is 00:07:15 can I do just the slightest of redirects and ask about the Vanga boys themselves, were they like club music or were they always like Six Flags music? Like what, you know, like did, where there were grown adults during the late 90s and early 2000s going to the club getting wasted listening to the Vanga boys? Fuck, yeah. The Vanga boys were Dutch. they were a Euro dance group out of Rotterdam the Vanga Boys had nothing to do with Six Flags Oh no but can you imagine how much money they made
Starting point is 00:07:50 From Six Flags? So they were just real real ass music They started off real before they became the sound of Six Flags And also Molly you should look into them Because I think not only would you love them But their costumes are insane. They are pretty crazy. Oh my God. Right? It's like a fun
Starting point is 00:08:14 village people situation. It's like it's like it's like it's a fun village people meets circus act. Their clothes are insane. I went down a great elevator boy's hole, I'm telling you. And then I got all jumped up and it was just like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I got the I got the beats running through my blood, man. Yeah, I still have a very immediately positive reaction of those beats. Yeah. Oh, and they had a comeback
Starting point is 00:08:40 in 2010, or at least they attempted a comeback in 2010 with a comeback single, Rocket to Uranus. Good driving. No, I really like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom boom was a good one. Boom, boom, boom, boom, I want you in my room. Oh, man, that makes me feel like I'm in a junior high dance right now. Yeah, it's like, you know,
Starting point is 00:09:04 it's like they were around like the time of like Aqua too. It's like that kind of just like, yeah, I got the moves, but also the kind of music you don't have to dance to if you don't want to. But how can you not once it's in your blood? Especially if you're an old man just coming off a bus. Once it starts, you got to go. Or if you're a young man, deceitfully dressed as an old man in some cases. Oh man, but he's killing it though. So that guy's still alive? Yeah. I would have assumed he was long dead. Good for him. Aren't you excited now? Now you can actually meet him. We should try and find him. Now we got to meet him in real life. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:45 You live in L.A. You could probably find him today. I just wonder if maybe, I feel like he needs to team up with Beyonce. We have to talk about Beyonce. Homecoming was dropped today. And for those of you that don't know, it is a documentary about Baychella,
Starting point is 00:10:03 her performance last year, Coachella. and also just like all of the work and effort and rehearsals and diets she put into to create bechella last year. But as well as they also dropped the live album from Homecoming on Spotify, which is huge to everybody because Lemonade is not on Spotify. So you can at least hear some songs from Lemonade if you only have Spotify? Man, can I tell you the amount of time since 2015, is that when Lemonade came out? 2016, maybe 2016, that I was like drunk and walking somewhere and desperately wanted to listen to Lemonade. And I have, I bought a hold up and formation on, like I just bought them because I wanted them, but I wanted the whole album. And how many times did I go to Spotify and
Starting point is 00:10:54 forget that it's not there? And then like, oh, I don't have title. Now you got it, baby. Now you know, now you've got the live album, which is like, it's, it's very funny because the whole whole beehive is just like, Queen Bay has graced us this day and on a Wednesday. I do love that Beyonce just swoops into your, like the way she releases things, you know, you like don't know when they're coming. And so she just like, maybe people didn't know when this was coming. Maybe I just didn't know. No one knew.
Starting point is 00:11:24 This was a complete surprise. And Lema was the same thing. And so she just like drops this joy bomb, this like skill bomb on your day. and everyone stops what they're doing and drops everything. And I feel like it's a real fun way to swoop in and surprise the shit out of people. Yeah, but then her diet on, like before this,
Starting point is 00:11:43 was no bread, no carbs, no sugar, no dairy, no meat, no fish, no alcohol to prepare herself for Bechella. And that makes me hungry. Yeah. So I've been thinking about this since you told me this morning. So I want to know whether no. sugar means no, like, white sugar, or whether it means no, like, sugar in the form of food.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Like, could she have fruit, is my question. Yeah, you need, there's a lot of things that she wasn't having that a human body needs. Like, you need glucose, which is sugar. So she must have been able to have, like, fruit and vegetables. And honestly, fruit and vegetables are about all I can stomach right now with, and so with pregnancy. And so I'm not saying that I am just like Beyonce, but I am saying if she's eating fruit and vegetables, she might have been still very happy. But aren't, don't you feel weak?
Starting point is 00:12:35 I mean, I also, the thing is, I'm eating fruit and vegetables and they're interspersed with just like two, you know, bodega rolls with butter. So I'm not exactly like fiancé. Good, good, good. But, yeah, you do need the other things. But, I mean, I don't know. I'm surprised that given all that working out she was doing, she wasn't on like a, you know, how can you dance that much without being on like a high protein diet?
Starting point is 00:13:00 I have no idea. Apparently she just ended up she was trying to lose a bunch of weight because it was right after the twins were born. So she was trying to lose like 40 pounds as well so that she could like fit into the outfits. Twins, man. After the twin, the quote unquote twins were quote unquote born. Wait, what conspiracy theory is this? You guys don't remember the uterus factory the JZ and Beyonce have over in China? Yeah, I forgot about the uterus factory.
Starting point is 00:13:29 This is why we need you. Marcus? Yeah. I leave for a couple of weeks and you guys forget all about the uterus factory. I forgot because I remember the fake belly controversy of Blue Ivy, but I forgot about the uterus factory controversy. Would that they could, man, outsource my uterus. Outsource somebody else's uterus to me is what I mean. Yeah, please, but also use mine. I'm fine with it, but apparently I'm too mentally ill to have other people's babies. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:14:03 It's insane, though, with all of this stuff, because at the same time, which I, so last thing I had a slumber party with Holden McNeely, because he is still in town and he wanted to drink wine and watch the act and fell asleep at my house. So he, as we all know, loves Taylor Swift very much. So every day he's been showing me because Taylor Swift has now every day been posting secret pictures about the fact that she's a guest apparently dropping. an album on April 26th and all of her fans are going crazy about it. But then just looking at the juxtaposition of Beyonce and Taylor Swift, just like,
Starting point is 00:14:40 go fuck yourself, Taylor Swift. Beyonce did it and didn't have to do the whole like gear up to it at all. She just fucking dropped that shit and was just like, fuck all y'all, y'all, I'm the best. Yeah, I feel like my, I'm trying to really open my mind about and be more empathetic towards what other people really love. I have never felt any strong feelings about Taylor Swift. It's not that I've never felt any positive feelings about her. I can enjoy a T. Swift song here and there,
Starting point is 00:15:07 but I've never felt any, you know, particular admiration for her or anything. But I feel like, I hope this, I feel like Holden loving her is like a good, that's like a vouch for her to me. Not that I endorse all the things that hold is good love. But, and then there's other people in my life who I also respect greatly,
Starting point is 00:15:28 who also really like Taylor Swift. And so I'm trying to open my heart a little bit to it. But I continue to just feel a kind of lack of feeling for her. It's not a negative, but it's an absence. Yeah. You know? I feel that about all pop music. Yeah, you do feel that about all pop music.
Starting point is 00:15:49 You know, there's a great presence of positive feelings when I think about Beyonce and many other pop stars. And when I think about Taylor Swift, I just feel kind of like, all right, keep trying. It's like that video of Aretha Franklin when she's being asked about different singers. And she's asked like about Adela and she's like incredible voice, breathtaking voice. And then she's asked about Taylor Swift and she's like gowns, beautiful gowns, excellent gowns. Like that's exactly how I feel about Taylor Swift. She's very pretty.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Yeah. She is a person, you know. Excellent gowns. She does sing. She certainly wears clothes. Oh man, that's why we should. I wish we could see Taylor Swift in real life because, Marcus, we have to catch you up on the idea of April Reels Day. Because April Reels Day is this Friday.
Starting point is 00:16:43 It's coming. I was going to ask about April Reels Day. We invented some holidays while you were gone. And that's fantastic. Tell me about April Reels Day. Oh, God. Jackie, you want to take this one? I mean, April Reels Day, it's on April 19th of every year, and that is the day, because we are having a discussion about how much we dislike April Fool's Day, because a lot of it is very, you know, it hurts and it affects people, and it's just, a lot of times it's not funny and not worth it.
Starting point is 00:17:11 It can be very mean-spirited. Yeah, not funny and mean-spirited. Yes. And April Reels Day, you have to be in someone's presence, though. Interestingly, though, that our critique of April Fool's Day was that it's too mean spirit. and then we invented the following holiday. Yeah, anytime it's like you have to be in that presence. It's like, ah, this does not, this does not sound fine.
Starting point is 00:17:33 It doesn't bode well. You have to, but that is the day that you are able to tell one real thing to your friends or whomever you, or your coworkers, whomever you're around, that's real. Too real. Oh, so this is an airing of grievances. Yeah, it's a bit of a festive. Ah, okay. But it's one.
Starting point is 00:17:52 It's not an airing of grievances. It's an airing of grievance. A single grievance. And Holden thinks people can walk the line between having it be something. It could be something totally, totally minor, like, you know, you gulp when you drink your water. Or it could be something. Holden basically thinks we should just put our trust in people that it won't be something like, you know, I've always resented you. He thinks it should be something somewhere in between you gulp your water and I've always resented.
Starting point is 00:18:23 It sounds kind of like three-hour relationship fight day. Yeah. Yeah, but then that's all the point is that the next day is a 420, so you just smoke it all away and then it's like it never happened. Or you smoke a lot and think about April Reels Day all day. Exactly. Thank you. Has anybody else ever been fucking high before?
Starting point is 00:18:44 The idea that you forget about the things that bothered, that just happened that are on your mind. Oh, yeah. No, I always totally smoke. and just chill out and don't think about everybody hating me. Don't think about what are all your friends eating you? Or think about every wrong thing you've said in your entire life? No, no, I've never done that either.
Starting point is 00:19:03 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, no, let's not talk. Let's smoke weed and think about that time yesterday that I made my friend feel like shit. Yes, right. That's the best thing. You can think about what your friend said to you and what you said to your friend, and you have two things to just circle, circle about all 420. And then get too high doing it.
Starting point is 00:19:23 hopefully in a big crowd of people. Yeah, hell, yeah. Well, this is what I'm scared about because Holden and I have our Jackany's dating sims on Friday. Oh, he's going to get real. We are going to honor April Reels Day. And Holden says he already has the things, things multiple of what he wants to say to me.
Starting point is 00:19:44 I thought it was only one. It should be only one. He said, but then I guess I didn't understand the idea of the slapback card that if you have a, the slapback card, then you can say another thing that's too real. Ah. So it's like you can trump them kind of with the, you know, forgive the word. You know, in the Uker sense, you can have a trump card.
Starting point is 00:20:09 That means on every April 19th you got to be sure to put an Uno card in your pocket. Like you have to have a literal slapback uno card? Slap back card. You have to. I think it's a type of card that will come with the, with the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the. of April Reels Day. It's a unique to, because we also discussed having it be one of those
Starting point is 00:20:27 hands that you get in the corner machines. Oh, those are fun. Yes. Assault someone. Yes. Can you actually slap them and get away with it? Yes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:20:36 If they're too real, yes. But this is where it all falls apart. Because the idea is if they're too real, like they say, you know, Jack, you never deserved this thing you got and she says that's too real. She not only can slap me, but then she can say the justice in this world
Starting point is 00:20:56 for saying something too real is to say, well, you shouldn't have even been here in the first place? So she can say something even worse to me. Three-hour relationship fight day. That's all this is. I want to get into fights all day on Friday. I am going to hurt everybody's feelings. It's going to be like middle school all over again.
Starting point is 00:21:15 But then I'm going to go into a really deep, dark depression about it. And that's what I'm excited about, because it isn't from depression sometimes when you grow the most? Sometimes. Most, most, most, most bouts are just a huge waste of time and energy, but I guess sometimes you come out stronger. Never be asked again whether you were a tween dressing like she thinks she knows
Starting point is 00:21:41 what adults are supposed to wear ever again with beta brand dress pants, yoga pants. Y'all need some fancy pants, I'm telling you. Like X-Tina's genie in a bottle of, you gotta rub on my pants the right way. If you wanna come, come, come let me out. You're gonna want an extra rub and a half with my Palazzo pants on
Starting point is 00:22:02 because my ultra-cumphy, fun, fancy pants are made with wrinkle-resistant four-way stretch ponti-knit fabric. You ain't never had pants like these. Real-time genie talk, the genie from Aladdin, and I'm talking the OG genie here. Could have had the comfort of his billow ankle cinchumups with more style and fun.
Starting point is 00:22:22 if he had beta brand dress pant yoga pants. Who needs extra unused fabric when you're all folded up in a dang lamp? Seriously, they are insanely comfy pants. I never thought it was possible to make pants that I can look like a put-together individual in as well as slip them down around my ankles and very easily emergency pee in between two cars on the side of the road. You know, I usually wear high-waisted pants. And when I'm slamming keys and taking names all day at a commons,
Starting point is 00:22:52 computer. I don't want a zipper and top button shoving into my belly cheeseburger locker to give me burpees for the rest of the afternoon. Beta Brand's pants are just so dang comfortable and I look like a real class act when I am sitting down, but most people don't know that the top of my pants are rolled down underneath my lunch chub and I ain't talking about a penis. They're my lunch chub protectors. That's why I started wearing BetaBrand's dress pant yoga pants. Visit betabrand.com slash 7 all overcase to get 20% off yours.

Starting point is 00:23:31 Sun is shining and flowers are bursting through their dirt graves.

Starting point is 00:25:45 We need to talk about Brittany. It's time. So we have to talk about what happened, what the initial story with Britney Spears was, which was a total good for her of her checking herself in to a mental health facility, basically saying like I need help and support right now. But then now that there has been further development since then, right?
Starting point is 00:26:08 Yeah. So because I wanted to really give her a shout out because we were, we were thinking about this not too long ago where it's like the difference between the, the last breakdown of Britney Spears and how she was ripped apart by the media because of it and made fun of her. And her mental illness was not something that people took, that people took serious at all. And now they were giving her the, like, good for you, like her father's really sick. He's her manager and conservator who, so he is the head of all everything, Britney Spears.
Starting point is 00:26:42 If she wants to, she can't even drive her own cars. She can't spend any of her money. Everything goes through her father. and her father fell ill, and she had a breakdown, and she set herself into a rehab facility for 30 days. Now, there's this podcast that is, not this podcast, different podcasts called Britney's Graham. Wait, there's another podcast besides this one?
Starting point is 00:27:05 I know. I know it. I think like five or six. I guess there's a couple out there. Yeah, I've listened to a few. Britney's Graham is the one that's been going back through and talking about Britney Spears and like her history of mental illness
Starting point is 00:27:21 and that kind of stuff. And they had an actual breakthrough of a voicemail from someone that claimed to be a former member of Britney's team that stated that the rumors that she was actually, she's actually being held against her will in the mental facility. So there's a big outreach now
Starting point is 00:27:37 that the confirmation of that caller was confirmed. And so now that there's this big backlash because it would make sense because our father has complete control over everything she does, that there's no way she would be able to choose to go into a mental facility. So now the hashtag, hashtag free Britney is everywhere. However, if someone is put into a mental health facility, sometimes is it not for their own good?
Starting point is 00:28:07 Yes. And especially because there are signs that she had stopped taking all of her medication. You know, right? there's like certain lines at which the state can determine that you can't make this decision for yourself. Getting sectioned is what it's commonly known as. But
Starting point is 00:28:23 for an adult could another family member make that determination? Her father because he's the one that is in charge of her completely like all of everything that she does. But how does that work since she's an adult? He can't be her like legal guardian or anything right? I mean I guess
Starting point is 00:28:41 I don't know how these... But at the same time if you were... But it seemed like it's like being Baker acted is what we used to call in Florida where it's like if you are in danger to yourself for those around you you have it's like you can have someone put you into a facility but it's also the stuff of fucking horror movies of somebody using that power against you right
Starting point is 00:29:00 completely yeah conservative they are like legal guardians from that person whether they're you know like 35 or 65 it's a lot of times it's for old people and it's been done I know it was done to was it the serial killer Richard Chase very briefly until his parents let it collapse or his parents let it lapse and he murdered seven people. Sometimes it's necessary.
Starting point is 00:29:24 Sometimes it's for the person's own good. Yeah, I'm not saying that Britney Spears is going to snap and eat a baby. But sometimes... Sometimes you snap. Sometimes you just snap. It sounds very like Sylvia Plathie to me, you know, just like taking a woman and being like, oops, she's crazy, you know.
Starting point is 00:29:42 and I'm worried about Britney Spears because it doesn't sound like this is necessarily for her own good. But how as the public, how do we know that of whether it's for her own good or not? And I think that she's like... If her father's making the decisions, her father needs to be...
Starting point is 00:30:00 But also if she stopped taking all of her medications and she's in the care, she has two children to take care of and she's in the middle of like doing a huge show in Vegas and all this stuff and could potentially just ruin everything she's just rebuilt. that maybe she just needs some time. Yeah, but isn't that her right as an adult to, I mean,
Starting point is 00:30:17 obviously if there's negligence going on with as a parent, then that's in the interest of the state. But her right to mess up her life as an adult is her right? Like, you know, that's her choice. That doesn't mean she's a danger to herself or others. Well, the thing's about with big stars like her, there's a mini economy that's going on. It's like not, if Britney Spears fucks up,
Starting point is 00:30:39 it's not just Britney Spears who fucks up. Like, who gets fucked up. Like, there are a lot of people that will lose jobs and lose livelihoods based on Britney. If Britney Spears would said, fuck it. I don't feel like doing it anymore. Like, that's one thing. But if it is something that she would come to regret later, like, oh, man, I really wish you guys would have helped me out back then when I needed it. I just ended up destroying my entire life.
Starting point is 00:31:04 That's a tricky thing. I don't know, man. Involuntarily committing somebody should be a last-ass resort, shouldn't it? But also, maybe it was. You don't think that's a thing. the only issues, the fact that this has happened multiple times in the past, like obviously she has mental stability
Starting point is 00:31:18 issues. So if, I mean, I've had people have many interventions with me and that was enough, you know? Interventions, yes. Maybe you shouldn't be doing this anymore. But then I chose, I chose to better myself. But then it's like, what if she's not capable of making those
Starting point is 00:31:34 decisions for herself? And she just needs a lot. It's also, it's not like they put her, she's a billionaire. They put her at a nice facility where it's like it's like she's strapped to a bed. But having one's liberty taken away from them is there should be a very high standard for that, even if it's in a very nice, like the standard for that should not be changed whether or not a lot.
Starting point is 00:31:59 I agree with you, Marcus, that a lot of people, that's probably why this is happening. A lot of people are like, we need you to be able to do this. But the standard for taking away Britney Spears' freedom should remain as high as for anybody, which should be incredibly high. But then also, at the end of the day, this is also not completely confirmed yet. Yeah, we have no idea if any of this is true. Yeah, we have no idea.
Starting point is 00:32:23 So all of this stuff is coming out. It's like all of this stuff is coming out. And it's just like, at the end of the day, I just wanted to be okay. Yeah, of course. Yeah, I've been rooting for Britney Spears so much. I feel like, you know, I really am. empathize with the fact that she had to come of age in front of everybody.
Starting point is 00:32:46 And I think that it's not nice how we all hold it against her. And I think how much she's grown and how solid she, you know, that's not to say that she might not still have, you know, mental illness. But, like, she just seems to have really, like, persevered. Come out, you know. That's why I've just been, yeah, I've been pro her for so long because she really just, she fucking came back, guys. We're not losing her yet.
Starting point is 00:33:14 It's also like possibilities that she might retire, too, but I won't even think about it because I still want to see Britney Spears. I want to see the Las Vegas show. I'm being selfish. Everybody's got to be selfish every once in a while, okay? I mean, the Las Vegas show would be excellent, but if I was Britney Spears, I would be so tired. Yeah, very tired. Yeah, but she just looks a damn good. You know, it doesn't make me tired, though, is Marcus, Game of Thrones?
Starting point is 00:33:38 Oh, yeah. I mean, I don't want to spoil it for anyone, but it was pretty good. It was pretty good. People were happy with it? Oh, yeah, I was very happy with it. I was very happy. I had a really good time with it. I'm sorry, Molly, that this is now the time of year that you will have to endure the...
Starting point is 00:33:57 We won't even do it that much on here, but I just wanted to throw it out there and look you in the eyes, Marcus, to just be like, right, Game of Thrones? Oh, yeah, no. It was a whole episode setting up for the horrific sadness to come. Dude, I'm gonna cry. You know it's only six episodes long, the season? What? Yeah. What?
Starting point is 00:34:19 Six episodes. Oh, no. Yeah, last episode was only seven. Yeah. Oh, no. Oh, God. I'm so good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:28 And the episodes were supposed to be, like they said, like, each episode will be movie length, an hour and a half long. That damn episode last week was 55 minutes. That was, it was a short one. They were alive. but I bet the rest of them are going to be like slamming down the house with it. Yeah, they got to be. They have to be.
Starting point is 00:34:45 Man, and it's just, can you imagine how difficult it is to make that show? I wouldn't want to do it anymore, no matter how much money you paid me. I'm like, okay, can you kill me off? Kill me off. I want to, I don't want to be out here. I imagine it's really cold. I just, I don't want to, I can't. So crazy.
Starting point is 00:35:05 Having just been to the place where they filmed a lot of the, like, wall scenes, the northern scenes, went to Iceland a couple weeks ago. Tell us about Iceland, but also, yes, I'm sorry, continue. It was fantastic. It was wonderful. Spent a lot of time on Eggelson's horse farm and got a bunch of fluffy horses to cuddle up with and pet, and I made friends with horses. Did you ride horses? No, just made friends.
Starting point is 00:35:30 I mean, it sounds like you had a wholesome time, guys. But I haven't gone up there, like I couldn't imagine. And it was like March, you know, the end of March is still about 25 degrees at night. Oh. And that was in everything. Most things were still like covered in snow. Not everything, but a lot of things are still covered in snow. Like I couldn't imagine being out filming in that shit for weeks upon weeks upon weeks.
Starting point is 00:35:55 I always forget that they put out Game of Thrones in the spring. Every spring I'm like, what the, why is this now? Because the whole thing is just like, it's so dark. It's dark and it's cold and we're outside and we're walking through the snow and we're camping. in the snow and we're carrying people the snow and we're fucking in the snow Oh yeah they're fucking in the snow You can see our breath as we talk
Starting point is 00:36:16 to one another and I'm always like why is this happening in the spring? There should be a show about spring Play the winter show In the winter. Especially when like I feel like Sunday nights are always the night That it's like I want to sit out on the porch You know? Have myself a jizzy
Starting point is 00:36:32 stare at the birds while the birds Attack of the other birds Man I watch this bachin' bird. Attack the fuck out of a hawk the other day. In the sky! It was great! But that's usually what I want to do on a Sunday night, but not for the next six weeks.
Starting point is 00:36:48 We've got jobs to do. As a community, we must watch Game of Thrones. Yes, we must watch every episode as they come out. I started in the room as I have seen a lot of Game of Thrones. It just watches over me. All fantasy. It's not that I have any hostility towards it. It just is like, it's so.
Starting point is 00:37:08 boring to me. I cannot imagine how it is engaging to people. See how you feel about fantasy? That's how I feel about pop music. I thought, yeah, Beyonce. And Beyonce specifically, yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm like, why are all these dorks, listen on all these dorks talk to each other about lords and shit? It's just like so, it just means. Lord Randallie? Oh, no. We need another horse, my lady. It's just so silly to me. And so I started in the
Starting point is 00:37:38 room because I'm like, what will happen when Lord Randalli refuses to pledge field to the dragon queen? Oh my God, but you have to. She's great. Like, that's her, ah. Dineris Stormborn. First of her name. I left after 20 minutes. I don't know. Go watch guys grocery games. Unburnt, unbroken, breaker of strains. Come on. That doesn't get you going. It's, it reminds me of high school theater kids who always spoke in British accents no matter what the play was. Oh, it's rough. It's rough. I mean, yeah, but at the same time, it's like the fact that they even bring it, it's like, people love the show.
Starting point is 00:38:15 But what about the costumes, Molly? Yeah. I appreciate it as an epic work of art that I do not care about. Like the costumes, yes, the setting, nice. It's just, it's so detailed. How are all these people paying attention through all this? Years and years of specific feuds and references to various dinners. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:39 How do people keep it in their heads? It just stays. Either it sticks or it doesn't. Yeah. Yeah. And for some reason, fantasy sticks like a motherfucker. Yeah. Well, I also remember when I was originally reading them, I kept going to the back because it would explain it had all of the maps of like, all right, this one is this to this one.
Starting point is 00:38:58 And then this one dates this one. And so they had a whole map of it in the back of the books. So that's how I kept it all in my brain. The Middle Earth map and all of that. People love glossary, whole other languages. I'm just like, I don't have time for this. I own a full set of Game of Thrones maps. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:17 Of each, the entire Westeros, Esos, each specific area. You got the north. You got the Riverlands. Wait, do you have the risk of it? I do not have the risk, no. I think you would really like the risk of Game of Thrones. I admire the body of knowledge that it takes. It's like when I really, it's a whole, like, I remember going snowboarding
Starting point is 00:39:38 for the first time and then coming back to high school and being like all these people who snowboard have this whole body of knowledge and skill that I didn't ever even think about. It's like a whole iceberg of what they know and can do that I don't have. How interesting. And it really kind of like expanded my world.
Starting point is 00:39:55 Same with trying to learn guitar. I was like all these guys in my high school know how to play guitar. That's this whole world that they have and I don't have access to. And like that's like the people who like the maps of fucking game. with throes. I'm like, I admire
Starting point is 00:40:10 the capacity in your mind to expand and contain this information, but yet, like the snowboard and the guitar, I try and I fail immediately and I give up. And what will I do with all this information? It will all go away
Starting point is 00:40:26 in six episodes. And all of it will finally just have you ever re- because I've ever re-watched any of them. Have you? Oh yeah, a couple times. I just re-watched the entire series. leading up to last night, like, over the last few months. And it's because you have to, like, give into the, how dense it is.
Starting point is 00:40:46 And I feel like part of it's like, maybe I'm getting smarter, even though, again, like what you were just saying, Molly, none of these things I can actually use in real life. So, but maybe some, in some part of me, I'm getting smarter. Because they have British accents. They're ultimately smarter than I am. It's not like it has to be practical. I mean, I got space in my head for, you know, the various. you know, ups and downs of Olivia Benson, you know, in law and order.
Starting point is 00:41:11 So it's not like there isn't one value in creating space in your mind for stories. It's just they're so complex. Fantasy stories are so detailed and so, like, they make up their own damn language and geography. It's awesome. It's awesome. Yeah, I love studying maps. Like, I'm right there with Gideon, like studying the maps of Middle Earth. You're like, oh, so Frodo.
Starting point is 00:41:38 was here as Ergon was here. Oh, wonderful. Oh, they were so close to each other. Never even crossed paths. I just can't wait for you someday, Marcus, to have a whole room just filled with tables with maps on the tables. And no one's allowed to bring food or drinks into the map room, because that is Marcus's map room.
Starting point is 00:42:04 You see, on the seventh farthing is when Samwise get, yes. so on and so forth. But man, would I fall right to sleep, though? So I think it would be a great nap room as well. Hey. Oh, map nap nap room? It's a map and nap room. I like real maps of real places.
Starting point is 00:42:21 Nah. For what it's working. I like real maps, real play. I also like to study maps. Yeah. Yeah. I like geography. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Well, I remember when my mom always made us look at the road maps so that even if as technology grew, She's like, you have to know how to read a map. So last time I was home, my niece is 13. She doesn't know how to read a map. And it was just like trying to get her. I'm like pulled out a bunch of my mother's maps. I was like, you don't understand what the different symbols on a map is. Okay.
Starting point is 00:42:51 And then we just sat and went through the map. And I, you, if there is, if you want to bore the fuck and have a 13-year-old that was raised on screens, bring out a couple of maps. Yeah. Ant maps of Florida. So this is the highway that'll take you up north. If you want to get from Tallahassee to Orlando, the best route is Route 74, unless. Sometimes they backs up around land and lakes. You want to get off an exit.
Starting point is 00:43:26 How are you still going to get to Orlando? I get it. I get it. I think it's a fun juxtaposition because she follows me on social media. So it's like, I want you to really know that as much as you might even think for a second, I am cool, I want to banish all of that from your memory. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's the job of adults to just bring up the unpleasant things about life and be like, I need you to learn this.
Starting point is 00:43:54 Someday you'll need it. Yeah, the unpleasantness of maps. Tell me about what a key is. Not that kind of key, this kind of key. I need a simple kind of health. I need something to be convenient and accessible because between touring and living and laughing and loving, Lord knows Leonard Skinner didn't have time to be checking in on their

Starting point is 00:48:33 Yeah, like the unpleasantness of the fact that I found out recently that you, that the phobia of ketchup exists. So Marcus, for a while we've been having a lot of condiment conversations. Okay. I believe it's called condiment corner. I'm strictly, I'm anti-chup. I don't like ketchup. I'm anti-chup on almost anything. You know I'm a mayo girl. We've discussed us many times. I know your condiment choices. And apparently you can actually be truly, have an actual fear of ketchup. It's called, uh-oh, Marcus, you want to try it? Mortiscusophobia.
Starting point is 00:49:11 Mortiscuscus phobia. Mortiscusophobia. Mortiscusophobia. Named after the guy who was the most scared of ketchup, presumably. I mean, this says it comes from the Australian slang for dead horse, which I don't know if that's true or not. I'm going to fact check that one. A word that has two double, not
Starting point is 00:49:36 W's, but double-use in the word. I don't know if that is any kind of slang for anything. Jackie, what if you have a child one day and like many children, the child just wants to eat ketchup with like a spoon only ketchup or like dip a french fry and ketchup
Starting point is 00:49:52 and suck it off over and over just as a ketchup vessel? They're going to have to learn how like something else. They'll get hungry enough. Yeah, dead horse is Australian slang for ketchup. Pass the dead else. Because it's
Starting point is 00:50:10 because it reminds people of blood? I don't know. They say it's a rhyming slang for tomato sauce. Dead horse, tomato sauce. In Australian, maybe. Tomatoes. Tomatoes. Tomatoes sauce. Tomatoes sauce. Dead horse. Dead horse. Dead horse. Dead horse. Dead horse. House. House. No.
Starting point is 00:50:30 No, Marcus. It's not a dead horse. It's a tomato sauce. It's a tomato. Tomato. They probably say tomato. They call a snake. They like rhyming slang in Australia.
Starting point is 00:50:43 I mean, who does it? They call them Joe Blikes. Uh-huh. That's actually kind of fun. Yeah, wives. They call them a moroc to travel and strife. Really? What a dorky nationwide practice.
Starting point is 00:50:56 Please. I love that. Are you kidding me? I love it too. It's just very dorky. Don't you think it's dorky? To be like, let's find a fun rhyme for all the things. As someone that makes a lot of rhymes and a lot of dumb puns,
Starting point is 00:51:08 who really am I to judge in this conversation? That is true. Oh, they got all kinds of cute slang in Australia. They like to truncate words. They call breakfast. They call it Brecky. I've heard of that. Yes.
Starting point is 00:51:21 Mm-hmm. They call cookies, bickies. I like it. I think it's cute. Ooh, they call Speedo's budgie smugglers. Oh, like the birds. Like the little bird, right? Yeah, because it looks like you got a little bird in your pants.
Starting point is 00:51:38 That's so cute. That's so cute. I was trying to, there's these Brooklyn parrots, wild Brooklyn parrots, that live near Brooklyn College. And they're like, parrots that live in the trees and shit, like big ass. But then the person, I've never actually seen them. the person who was explaining it to me was like, they're parr, but they're, you know, small parrots.
Starting point is 00:52:01 And I was like, like a budge-gar? And they were like, what? And I was like a parakeet. But aren't they called budge-gars or budge-a-whart? Like the Australian word for parakeet. And she looked at me like, I was the one who was out of my mind. But budgie is a thing. Yeah, budge-ra-gaz.
Starting point is 00:52:18 Those were the parakeets we got from the pet store, right? They were budgies. Yeah, little budgies. Yeah. Don't you guys remember this summer when I had my budgie game? I can't believe you forgot about my budgies. I had a game and it was an app and it was called something about budgies
Starting point is 00:52:34 and then it was all these budgies in a cage and you had to tickle them and when you tickled them it gave you more love and then the budgies would love you more and then you would feed them and that's it, that's all you did. That's the game that I used to play. These budgies obviously loomed
Starting point is 00:52:51 much larger in your mind than they did in ours. Yeah, why would we remember this? We don't even live in the sixth. It must have been eight years ago. You don't remember that one summer when I played a game? Did you hold your phone up to the computer screen and show? Yeah, eight years ago, back when we were all heavily drinking at all times and a lot of drugs. Yeah, I was busy tickling budgies, man.
Starting point is 00:53:20 I do not remember your budgie game. I'm sorry. If you want to use that as your April Reels against me, that I'm a, not a good attentive friend. I mean, now it's all used up. I can't use budgie talk on April Real Day. That's what I was talking about the other day. I forgot about the game snood.
Starting point is 00:53:38 Did you ever play that game? No. No. You guys are boring. I've played games. I'm talking about great games from at least the year 2009. That was the height of times and people love talking about phone games. I'm so old guys
Starting point is 00:53:58 I don't know when it happened I held out on smartphones long after most people I didn't get one until 2011 Whoa yeah I forgot about that Yeah it was very annoying for other people But you I love that you were able to live In that innocence you know
Starting point is 00:54:13 I was in the T9 world man Playing Snake Yeah I think I I finally got a smartphone in 2010 Yeah Yeah I held on for a long time too I like my razor It was great because you could be like sorry
Starting point is 00:54:25 I can't email you until I get home tonight at one in the morning. Sorry. And all of your text messages were like three letters or three words long. It was fantastic. Yeah, it was freeing. It was freeing. Yeah, I had my little Nokia brick. That brick lasted for a very, very long time.
Starting point is 00:54:40 I had a Nokia brick that said the alarm clock could be set to a woman's voice that went, it's time to wake up. It's time to wake up. It's time to wake up. Sometimes I still think about that. I'm also realizing how old I am because, Do you guys care about cats at all? Yes?
Starting point is 00:54:59 No. Not the animal. The Broadway show. I know what you're talking about. I know you're talking about the musical. I close like, what are you talking about, Jackie? Have you ever seen my Instagram? Of course I care about cats.
Starting point is 00:55:13 Yes, I care about all Andrew Lloyd Weber musicals. The musical. As you guys know, they are redoing the musical. It's got Idriselba in it. It's got Dumb Taylor Swift in it. It has Judy Denshinch in it. It's got Ian McKellen in it. It's got Jennifer Hudson.
Starting point is 00:55:29 It's going to be a great movie. It's going to be awful, isn't it? It's going to be absolutely awful. And I love Andrew Lloyd Weber, but I'm pretty sure that Katz is a disturbing, awful musical. See, that's the thing is that I feel like the reason why I say it's a great movie because they just released a bunch of stuff about it, and I think it's going to be so creepy that it's going to be great. The costumes are legitimately terrifying. I mean, it's just about cats, right?
Starting point is 00:55:57 Cats who are sad. It's sad cats. One sad cat in particular who is kind of missing her glory days. She's got the best song. There's, what is it, the premise, as is on the IMDB, or on the Wikipedia page for the movie that already exists, over a single night, a tribe of cats called the jellycles, make what is known as the jellycull choice,
Starting point is 00:56:21 and decide which cat will ascend to the heaviside. layer and come back to a new life. Ian McCallum's playing Gus the Theater Cat. It's going to be spiritual. From across the country, I can feel you disdain for even just the words that you're saying. I love it. Oh, no, but who's going to play Munku's strapped?
Starting point is 00:56:46 It's Robert Fairchild. I don't think it's Andrew Lloyd Webber's finest work, to be honest. Well, you know, Taylor Swift is playing Bambalurina. But I think the creepiest part about this, so not only is it going to be done, it's not going to have the weird costumes. I love the gross costumes, because
Starting point is 00:57:04 again, which I know that I bring up to, often it made me think of Zubli Zoo. And I think that's why I like the weird human animal hybrid choice, but they're going to be done all in motion capture, so it's going to be more like an avatar type thing for all of them, as
Starting point is 00:57:22 well as the fact that everything is being shot where the set is huge so they are going to be actually the size of cats that sounds fucking terrible awful
Starting point is 00:57:39 awful but hey at least you got James Corden playing Bustifer Jones James Corden no I'm a hater on James Corden The blind items say that he is a dickhead. Not surprising.
Starting point is 00:57:57 Yeah, I've heard that, which sucks, you know? I loved carpal karaoke. I did. And then I got over it. He got too much too fast. What did you call carpole karaoke again, Jackie? I think it was singing with fatties. Was it just singing with fattie?
Starting point is 00:58:16 It was nothing like that. I think it was singing with fattie. It's over the list It's on the list It's on the list Marcus Gotta have that list We're going to get real short on this
Starting point is 00:58:37 Because we're running out of time It's celebrities who were raised in cults Ooh Does Scientology count? Oh yeah But there's some more interesting ones than that You know, Joaquin Finnix Yeah, Joaquin Finnix was raised
Starting point is 00:58:49 in the Children of God cult Children of God cult is fucking awful. Yeah, it's bad. He's a current weirdo as well. You know, his original surname is Bottom. Joaquin Bottom. That's... River Bottom, too, then?
Starting point is 00:59:06 River... Yeah, get it. Do you fucking get it? Ah. Oh, I do get it. Yeah, River Bottom. So, they changed it to Phoenix because, like, they phoenixed out of the cult. Is that essentially what it is?
Starting point is 00:59:17 That's exactly what. They phoenixed out of the children of God cult. And they, yeah, it's better than Bottom. Joaquin Phoenix is a much better name than Joaquin Bottom. Yeah, yeah. Joaquin Phoenix is a hot name. Yeah, Joaquin Phoenix is a great name. Weird guy, hot name.
Starting point is 00:59:34 Glenn Close grew up in a cult. She has an eerieness about her. She does. They were, her parents were a part of the moral rearmament cult. That doesn't sound fun. No, extreme conservatives. Maybe that's why she's got such a scary look. She's going to rise all the time.
Starting point is 00:59:52 Because I feel like a little bit, I feel like she looks haunted. Yes, she does. She does. I've always been pretty scared of Glenn clothes. Yeah. Haunted and severe. Yes, very severe. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:04 When owner-writer, their family lived on a commune. That's not necessarily a cult, but the rainbow commune sounds a little culty. It could be. Is that like the rainbow people? I don't know about the rainbow people. Rainbow people are like the, like the new wave. I'm speaking completely out of term but I'm aware of the fact that
Starting point is 01:00:24 Rainfield people are like new wave hippies that live off the land to do all that kind of stuff. I don't know a whole lot about them but I know that that is what so I wonder if that's maybe what they were talking about I mean it doesn't sound like fun I wouldn't want to I don't think I would
Starting point is 01:00:40 work as one. No electricity no running water type of thing no thank you I need my budgie app All right, it's time for blind items! We can't see him! It's not like she hasn't cheated with a co-star before, and he does have a very odd marriage,
Starting point is 01:01:00 so it probably wouldn't shock anyone to learn that this A-minus list television actress and this A-minus list movie actor who keep working together are also hooking up. TV actress and movie actor. The TV actress, she was in a... TV show back in the 90s. Jennifer Anderson. No. In a TV show back in the 90s. It currently
Starting point is 01:01:24 in a show that just ended that I know you like. Felicity! Yeah. Carrie Russell. Carrie Russell, thank you. I had no idea when her real name is. I'm watching the Americans right now and I'm just like, why did Felicity do that? How far into it are you?
Starting point is 01:01:39 Season 5. See, for me, season 5 was when I dropped off. It got boring. Really? Yeah. Whoa, you guys were both pro. The Americans were so long. Yeah. And I, and I dropped off. I got to get back into it. Maybe I think I just binged it too much and it all bled together. To be honest, I am taking a break right now. I'm taking a VEEP break. But I will go back. Yeah, yeah. See, that's what I said too. I said, too
Starting point is 01:02:00 a break and I will go back. It's been months. Because I keep looking at it and I go, eh. Yeah. I was getting very emotionally involved, like too emotionally involved. Like that Yonni-Hie plot, I was like personally devastated. So I did have to take an emotional break. I did that same thing with the wire, and now it's been so long that now I got to go back and start completely from the beginning. Oh, but I'm down with, but I know it's completely worth it. But that's a lot of time to invest. That's a lot of time to invest, but what a joy to be able to watch the whole wire again.
Starting point is 01:02:32 I should do that. Yeah, you should, you should. But the guy that Carrie Russell is hooking up with, he was on a TV. He got to start on a TV show, but now he's a gigantic movie star. On a TV show and then it became, but it's not the dude in the, Americans. No, it's not the dude in the Americans. I like that guy.
Starting point is 01:02:51 Yeah. Yeah, I like that guy. I like that guy. I like him as an actor. Who? Who? Got it started like one TV. He was like in a few, I think a season of a TV show, an HBO TV show, and

I can't believe how much I have come around to being completely obsessed with Adam Driver. I'm on that path. Just because he was associated with girls
Starting point is 01:03:56 and I hated girls. Me too. There's no reason to not love Adam Driver. I love him in everything I see him in. I'm on that path too. I at first was like, he's overrated. Why never we love him so much? And now I see him and I'm like,

Starting point is 01:04:37 To keep him from being accused of sexual harassment by various really young women he's always hitting on, this older A-minus B-plus list actor who is an Oscar winner slash nominee was provided with a barely legal team by his daughter. Oh, no. The daughter also pays the teen's salary. That's not even fun, creepy. To hang out with her dad. Ooh.
