Yes, it will. Yes, it will. Yes, it will. And not just because I've got Blessed Union of Souls stuck in my head. That is a name that I haven't heard that name in a hundred years. A hundred years. But it does live in my brain, like the phrase Blessed Union of Souls. I think, were we just, was I just to age where I was like, what a cool band name?

Because you've been singing the songs from them, and I don't remember the songs. I just remember the name of the band. Remember the name. Maybe it's because the word Blessed is not spelled properly. Is that what it is? It's B-L-E-S-I-D, and that is mostly of what I usually would remember about them besides I believe and Haley and Arno. That's it.

That's all that I've got in there, though. I never, I, well, maybe they had to be like, it's blessed, you know, and if they had spelled it correctly, people would call them blessed union and that's not what they want. No, they're blessed union of souls. Yes. Ooh, I know I can't. Now I'm upset just looking at the word blessed spelled like that, though. I, that's why I was, like, that's what I always remember, because it makes the shape,

this is a weird thing to say, it makes the shape of the word weird. And it doesn't look, and I'm like, because I'm like, bless it, see it, like, it makes it look weird. Yeah, I, I understand. Thank you. And MJ and I were both also talking about back in the day when we only had Shazam and trying to remember a song, especially when you're hungover and you're like, but what's that song? And you were telling me, I'd love for you to share your story. story because I also have, I've got another song that also, because it was all we had. It was all

we had. It was so fun. It was like, what if we sing it into Shazam? You know, that was really, it really like harkens back to the more innocent times of the early 2010s. But my story is just so dumb because how hungover must we have been? I had several friends sleeping on my floor after one of my best friends' weddings and we had all been up all night dancing. Oh, my God. Were you Julia Roberts? Were you Julia Robertsing them? Well, I wasn't running away from the wedding, if that's what mean, and I wasn't stealing anybody's husband. Yeah, yeah, I thought you were running. No, that's what I'm talking about. You're running towards the wedding.

I was not. No, it's got to stop. I was not in any way, Julia Roberts, but we were all just sitting on the floor, hung over after, you know, a fun wedding, which is a very special, like, unique feeling in life being hung over with your friends after a wedding. And we were, we could not think of the name of the song, September by Earth, Wind and Fire, which is like a household name of a song, but we couldn't think of it. And we kept, you can't Google, Ah, da-da-da.

We were trying. We were trying to do ad-da. Song that goes, Ah-de-da. But we couldn't. And when we were singing it in the Shazam, for hours before we figured out what. And nothing.

We could have just asked someone else who wasn't hungover. When you're all that hungover and you're all just kind of lay in it in a button, you're like waiting for the delivery to get there. Or like you're just trying to get a breakfast sandwich. much of the bodega and you just have to get through it. Yeah. Yeah. And we had that song, but it was during Christmas time.

And I just remember we would always get drunk up on my roof, very, very dangerous. I still don't know how nobody ever fell off the hour roof. Greenpoint. Greenpoint roof. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know how anybody ever fell off the roof. And we would go upstairs.

We're just like, chain, smoke, and get hammered. And ours was because of the song. And now I know it's called Christmas rapping by the waitresses because all I could remember was, Merry Christmas Merry Christmas Bar Bapa Bar Bar Bar Bar Bar Bar

And also How do you Google that? Yeah You don't Because if you remember that song too It's a story song So none of it is the same It's all like

Then we go down to the park And then we put up A big try And then by the way And so there's no recurring Yes Yeah yeah Yeah no

And and what brought this up Is that you said You said you were trying to figure out the Blessed Union of Soul's song, but you just kept trying to Google, I believe. But I did. And what did I do? Like an adult. I went from person to person in the studio. And I'm like, do you remember the song? I believe. And I found, I finally found someone. And it was James. And James knew with the song. Who solved the mystery? And because he's wonderful. And he is one of our editors over. He is the one of the few poor men that have to, and Adam, that have to just listen to my voice and stare at my face.

And he's the kind of man that I really truly trust to do those things. And so I knew James was going to come and clutch. And maybe he doesn't want me to tell people that he was the one that told me was Blessed Union of Souls, but here I am. I don't think there's any shame in remembering. I already called out Rob, but I called out Rob in a poor way. And again, I'm sorry Rob, Rob, because Rob was definitely immediately told that I called. I like that you're like, I'm not going to name him, and his name's wrong. His name's Rob, and he worked in the last podcast.

And everybody immediately told him that I was sitting out of him, page seven. And he was just like, he comes at me. He's like, man, it's just that I had fun, all right? Sometimes when you go see a movie by yourself, all right? You just don't by yourself. You just like it, okay? You don't know that other people don't like it. You think everybody likes it, okay?

It wasn't my fault. Yeah, no, that's true. This is the best thing about being an adult is that you can choose not to when other people don't like a movie that you like. Right. That would have destroyed me as a young person. Or you call them out on a microphone in front of many, many people and you just do it that way. Don't worry.

I was doing it in private as well. Like I was messaging him and making fun of him. So don't worry. This wasn't just a public, you know, bullying situation. Yeah. No, that's, you know, we bully out of love here at the last podcast. We do. You know, and it is, maybe it's just the little sister.

about me. Maybe it's just, I don't know, the fact that also, MJ, I know that it's not for me to say, but happy 10th wedding anniversary today. Thank you. You can say it. You were there. You and I were holding it down on the dance floor. God, we were holding down on the dance floor. Honestly, the pictures from your wedding, I look disgusting. I was so disgusting at your wedding. Like, you could just see, I'm just like, cover, because we were dancing. And man, that was back. when we were not taking care of ourselves at all. So I was just like so, like I just remember

dancing with your mom and laughing and laughing and like I will say I had a blast at your wedding even though I remember when you guys Oh, that's a different wedding song and I remember definitely making

japeries in my brain even though we had already purchased a nerd ring for you to engage your spouse with but you walked down the aisle to the Star Wars theme song. We walked down the aisle to Book of Love by Magnetic Fields. Sorry, yes, that's what it was. You recessed.

We recessed to the Star Wars theme song. So the Star Wars theme song, and I do remember, I will say, I made a couple japeries in my head about it. Yeah, well, marriage is all about compromise. Compromise. It's all about compromise. And I know I've told this story on the show before, but Gideon really wanted it to not just be the Star Wars theme, but to be the song that comes on at the end of episode four. a new hope when they're all getting their medals.

And I was like, that's too specific. No one will know what you're talking about. And then as he was telling me, I was like, that's not like, there's no like emotional gravitas to it. And I'm saying this and I look over at him and he's crying. Crying as he's listening to it. And you wouldn't even give him that. No.

How dare you? Although you say this as if Gideon is not, and I will say that, and I say this out of love, he's attuned to his emotions and he can access tears. Oh, yeah. That was... Better than some. I called him out for it in my vows. I made fun of him for how often he cried at Empire.

That really dates our wedding. Like, if I make it a... Remember that... Not Empire the Star Wars movie. Empire the television show with Taraji P. Henson. Oh, that is not what I was thinking. I thought you meant Empire the Star. Because I was like, why is that stopped?

No. What is the difference between 10 years ago and now? No, he still cries at Empire strikes back. But Empire, the television show. Wow. It's a golden age of television. And I don't know how all of those actors are doing. I think not great.

Do you still? Not doing well. I know that you are in the end, you know, like MJ is approaching graduation from grad school, which is crazy. You're in a crazy time period of your life. I know you're also, it's the 10th wedding anniversary. You don't have time to deal with it. But do you still have a copy of your vows? I have no idea where my vows are, what I said.

I don't, I, I, I do remember the making fun of him for crying at Empire, but I don't remember anything else I said. Really? So you don't have them written down somewhere? It's possible. I think I like put a bunch of stuff in a box and being like, like, like sentimental stuff. So it's, I like, I didn't write them on a, I wrote a lot of things, planning a wedding is difficult and some things fell to the wayside, which is parallel right now because of my life

right now, a lot of things fall into the wayside. But I remember, I think I wrote the vows that day on. a piece of paper like that day. It was one of those things where I was like, I really wish I had started this earlier. I wish I had put some more thought into this. It ended up being fine. But I think we may have both written them that day. It was a bit of a rush job.

Gotcha. Well, maybe like even maybe it would be cute, you know, tonight. Like when you finally, you know, put the kids down everything. Maybe you like write down a couple new vows and like be like, I'd like to talk to you about something and then have like give more vows as like a special moment today. That would be cute. And like revow. And I know that you're talking about you should have another huge party at some point.

And yes, I will attend. Yeah. And I will still hold it down on the dance floor, drinker or not. We will still sweat. Sweat and scream. I will still sweat quite as much. Yes. And I won't blame my, oh my God, what does he keep blaming?

Reggie in beef keeps blaming his like high basal like something heart rate because he's like like when he gets nervous, he really. really, really sweats, but he's also like a physical trainer in the show, so he's over people, and he's just dripping sweat on them. And he's like, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I have a condition and I sweat, I sweat too much. And I feel like that, even though I don't even have that condition because people do look at me like I'm a monster when I start to sweat because I also become bright red as a cherry and envy every single picture of me on MJ's wedding dance floor. I look like I'm about to Like my head's about to explode

Like a whistle in a cartoon I'm just like Keep her away from their mother No, but you and my mom had a great time We did, we were doing Oh God the gangam style Yeah Yeah, no no no we oh my God

That dog about we were gangam styling like crazy And it's a shame because my wedding was before I was really close with Holden I met all of you guys in what 2008, 2009. And so I knew Holden for years, but I just hadn't, like, I wasn't super close with him in 2016 when I got married. So he wasn't at my wedding. But now I really wish that he was because there was a number of command dances there.

Like, I want all of the command dances. And I was living my best life. Yes, the Gangam style. We got. Yes. Electric slide. Oh, the Chachas slide. I think we could both the electric slide and the Jaja slide, I'm pretty sure.

If there's commands in. it. It was played at my wedding, and that is the way that it should be, in my opinion. And you know I love a command dance. Tell me what to do, all right? Yeah, exactly. Take it off. Tell me how to boogie. Yeah, take it, take, I've started to say when I'm trying to teach my children how to use their own executive functioning skills, I say use your brain instead of mine. And that's, I feel like a command dance. It's like, yeah, I want, I want a break from knowing, from thinking of what to do. So, you know, to dominate me chat, chas, line, you know? I have to figure out. In fact, I remember at my wedding, I forced Holden to do the cha-cha slide because I remember screaming, I'm the bride and you have to.

I think Adam has the video. You and me went and grabbed Holden and the three of us all on the dance floor at your wedding, all did cha-cha-slide. And I think Adam, am I right? I think we made Adam tape it. Oh, my God. You have it somewhere deep in your storage files. What's that you? I don't know.

I'll have to look. Yeah, I'm not sure if I do. Lord knows where it's like buried in your phone somewhere, because I do. do remember definitely screaming I'm the bride and you have to, which is like, if there's one way to bridezilla out, it is to force your friends to command dance. But, you know, we don't have weddings to do this for. That's why MJ, you need a vow renewal. I know. I know. It is, we had one and now you need a real one. Yeah. No, I really, I, there's not enough excuses to make, to force your friends to dance. And, um, and I felt this way even when I was in college. I was like,

I need more dancing. And I was dancing a lot back then. And now I'm like, there's just not, everyone's married. And now all we have left is divorces to come, you know. And you can have divorce parties. Who is dancing when you get divorced? I'm going to throw it out there. It's been weird finding.

And I don't know if this is just something you get later on in life that like in the different seasons, you know, four seasons, the different stages of now we're having like the sad celebrations, but we still try to turn them into happy moments of like. watching all of, you know, our parents pass. And I feel like it's like, well, we got to try to have fun. Right. To the left. Slide to the right. Just like with a coffin in the middle, you know. Maybe just like sprinkling the ashes on the dance floor, you know?

Maybe it's like one last turn on the dance floor. Well, listen, Holden has given instructions for his funeral on this show and I'm going to give the instructions for mine right now. We can't wait. Oh, no, not we. We can't wait. I'd say, damn it. Okay.

For Holdens, for Holdens, for Holdens. Not for you. Not for yours. Yes. No, no, no. No, for Holdens, we can't wait. I'm counting down. Like, like, in the second he gets some side, kind of like, you know, prescient vision.

And he lets me know, I'm going to write it down in my calendar. Yeah. But, MJ, you want dancing. I want, I want it to be command dancing. I want it to be like, and I wanted to be like, you know, I wanted to be a wedding day. I want it to be like, you know, she drives me crazy. I wanted to be like the songs you heard at the roller rink in the 90s. I can make this happen

I'll make a playlist I mean I made your wedding playlist I can also make your funeral playlist You're welcome Maybe you know you're the same playlist Yeah You're the same playlist Honestly that's a one and done

Yeah yeah one and done It was a great list then And it's gonna be a great list We still have that on Spotify We sure do We still have your wedding playlist I think it is just under MJ's wedding playlist

Of what I very drunkenly made That was like you gotta play all this This is it has to be everything But I think it was also Because you were towards the end of planning a wedding where you're like, and I need this, and I need, and I think it was just like friends

where we're all just like, what do you need? I outsource it to you, and you fucking killed it. You were like, I think also this was when we were just really drinking a lot of gin on page seven. God, we were drinking a lot of gin.

We were doing a lot of wedding planning just on page seven. Yeah. And I'm sure I was, you know, crying about how overwhelmed I was and you were like, I can make a wedding dance playlist and you did, and it was perfect. And then I did.

And then you know what? I did it all drunk and wow, I was really capable back then. But not so much anymore. You know, when you slide into being a stoner, you just forget a lot more. That's the only thing. Although, it's not like I remember a lot from back then either. And, you know, I do remember I had a lot of crying. And so is Megan the Stallion.

I need to talk about this, the pictures of Megan the Stallion on stage, on a Broadway stage, crying as we talked about her being Ziegler on Moulin Rouge what like three weeks ago? Yeah, just a few last time Holden was out, I think, just a few weeks ago. And she's been in a relationship with Clay Thompson and she publicly explained that Clay Thompson had been cheating on her and she found out and you know what? The show must go on and the show must go on

and like a boss-ass fucking bitch at like, as everyone's like, you know, bowing at the end of the show. There's all these pictures of her just crying. And just, because you know that she held it all together to get through that fucking show.

And I was so devastated for her. And there's so many. And what, you know what? I will appreciate at least the side of the internet that I'm on. There was nobody being like, what a bitch.

It's one of stupid, but it was all like, and she still had to go on stage. Yeah. That sucks. Like, publicly, everyone knows literally what she found out that day. And she's got to go on stage. And that's a part of it. The show must go on. That, yeah, that day.

And there is, unfortunately, we now know Katie Perry is bad. But, you know, I've mentioned before that there is a part in the 2014 Katie Perry documentary when she had just experienced her breakup with Russell Brand, who is all so bad, obviously. but there is this, a moment in the documentary where she is just sobbing and she's under the stage and she's about to be like, you know how dumb that whole tour was? She's about to be like launched out of the stage, you know, into like a big fucking flower or something. She's wearing this ridiculous outfit. It's all that's like the firework era. And she's just under the stage sobbing, like hyperventilating sobbing trying to get it together.

I still feel bad for her in that moment. I still feel bad for that feeling. Like that, that sucks. And just, well, I just remember watching it at the time and like, you know, yeah, over the, over the years, I've had a couple of times when I'm like, I know I'm about to be on stage and I don't know if my, if I can actually control my emotions right now. Yes. And it's a terrifying. You leave it at the door. You leave it at the door, but it's a terrifying feeling.

And it's like, the fact that Megan the Stallion got through the entire show. Yes. But then released it during curtain call. It was just so extremely, like, relatable. And what do you call it? What is like, it's like when restraint collapse. Yes, restraint collapse. Yes, 100%.

And as... Maybe we talk about it because maybe I experience it, okay? Maybe sometimes I get restraint collapse, all right? Because I leave it all at the door and then I experience it later. Yes, anybody who has, you know, like a young kid who goes to school and then gets them home, knows about restraint collapse. You hold it together and then you fall apart. And but, and as Jackie pointed out, we know that being cheated on is no reflection. of how hot or awesome you are.

We had this cultural discussion when Lemonade came out and everyone was like how could you cheat on Beyonce? And it's like if Lemonade taught us anything, it's that cheaters are not cheating on you because you're not hot and amazing. But still, I'm just like, how could you ever hurt Megan the Stallion?

I realize I don't talk about Megan the Stallion and my obsession with her very often on the show because I do feel that like I'm just, at this point, I slowly slide down into just going like, like, as I'm watching her music videos, and that's really not how we try to speak of people's bodies anymore. But it really, like, I'm just like, I foam at the mouth, the more I watch Megan the Stallion videos.

And she's just, to me, such a beautiful, talented human being. Like, I'm so, uh, I want to be. year I want to kiss her. Yeah. I want to be, except I could never. I could never even imagine kissing because I would just like literally bow like I'd get on the floor and start being like,

I'm not worthy. I'm not worthy of you. That's how I feel about Megan the Stallion. And I, it makes me want to rip this person. Like she wrote in the Instagram story, cheating, had me around your whole family playing house.

Dot, dot, dot. Got cold feet. Holding you down through all your horrible mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season. Now you don't know. if you can be monogamous? Bitch, I need a real break after this one. Bye, y'all.

This is great, too, because I'm usually pretty against, like, spilling the private details of a breakup, but this one's good. I'm like, go off. And now you don't know if you can be monogamous? And I know, weirdly enough, I know Clay Thompson from long ago, last time I was working in middle schools, and he was at, like, the Golden State Warrior, like, one of the many golden boys on the golden times, the golden season. of the Golden State Warriors. And Clay Thompson was like, I had some kids who were just obsessed with him.

And so I know that he's like a beloved guy in his own right. Big, big baseball. Baseball. Baseball. No, basketball. Yeah, he's got, I don't know what he's. He's a big guy in his sport. A big guy.

A big guy being a big smart guy. But, yeah, now he's dead to me. And he's not worthy. And yes, I actually think that. No one's worthy. Of her. Like, I really don't know. It's like, I feel like she's up there for me with like a Charlize their own.

She's up there for me. Or I'm just like, no one could. Like, I feel that these are such beautiful human beings that like I don't think anyone, they shouldn't even look them in the eyes. Yeah. They don't deserve it. Yeah. Yeah. And once you betray a woman like that, I'll never forgive you.

You know, Jay Zee, I'm looking at you. Yeah, I just, I can't. And I know that you're not saying my initials right now, even though. Jackie Zabrowski. I'm looking at you. Because I am very faithful, MJ, I'm very faithful to my husband. And like almost too faithful, like to a point that I'm writing a video game where I'm envisioning him as a big foot character just so I can write a game where a character fucks a big foot. Okay?

That's also kind of my husband. Yeah. Well, you're going to have a robust renewal of your vows when you hit 10 years because you're keeping it alive and you're married. Oh, yeah. I mean, that's the thing. If you really want to, I guess if you want to spice things up, start writing. erotica with your husband. It really, it's, you know, at first you'd think, oh, that'll make it laborious.

You know, oh, it's almost like when you're like trying for a baby. Like, oh, you don't want to make it laborious, but that's not the case. Because at the end of this, you know, it's not like, oh, we have a baby. It's like, oh, we have a video game. You know, so that's what I like, I love this. Some people are trying, are you trying? You're like, yeah, I'm trying to write a cryptid funk scenario. Yeah.

Yeah, and I'm trying to not envision Bigfoot as I'm having sex with my husband. Yeah, I'm trying to do those things. But sometimes it's difficult. Sometimes I just go so big. And like, you're not supposed to say those things. But you know, you do and it escapes your lips and that's okay. But sometimes other things escapes your lips, Emily Blunt. Oh, Emily Blunt, you beautiful, dumbass.

Wow. So, okay, throw it out there. I've never seen Devil Wears Prada. Really? I am upset about it. And every person that I've said this to goes, really? You've never seen the godfather?

Yeah, yeah. It's definitely, it is the godfather of millennial women specifically. Like, I do feel they can't like that. It was that. And also the Princess Diaries. And I was like,

I had nothing against Ann Hathaway. I don't know why. Like it wasn't, it just skipped. Wow. I just skipped it. I sing out Anne Hathaway's greatest hits. I think that.

I know a lot of people really love the Princess Diaries. I, that came out in my hate. I was like, this looks dumb. I think that's what it was. I think that's, I think it was the literally, this was my hater face. But now I want to go back and watch Devil Wears Prada. And I did. Yeah, I watched it like, like, like, in the last five years. Yeah. And it's, it's fun. And it's fun. And I feel like that's, it's a fun one that I want to slap on because the devil wears Prada to, you know, the, it's everywhere right now. People are really excited about it. And people really, they're, they're championing out there.

Yeah. It is, it's, it's, I, and when I say I saw it in the last five years, like, for the first time, also. Like, I totally missed it. And I was like, why does everybody talk about this fucking constantly? But yeah, it's like, it is, it's, it's good, it's fun. I, I am appreciating everybody being excited for the Devil Wears Proto, too, even though, yes, we're all yearning for like, you know, new IP, but this is, it's fine. And we love Emily Blunt here at page seven. We absolutely love her. We thirst for her. She makes lots of good movies. But she is still married to John Cresensky. She is married to John Cresensky. Which is a big turnoff.

I feel like that is a warm. I'm just like, you must be something in there. Like, it's like, I feel like, because I don't trust John Crosinski. I don't say it. No. I don't trust him. No. I do weirdly, even though he's not asking me to.

I kind of have put him into not all the way. If we're talking about a bitch spectrum here, it's not all the way to Chris Pratt, but it's one of the levels like, like, it's like three quarters of the tank. I think that it's the specific. I think that it's the specific analogy to Chris Pratt works because it's also like you were a beloved character on a beloved show that everybody liked. And then you kind of went on to like not live up to how much everybody loved you in your choices. And yeah, I think Emily Blunt seems like, you know, she's like an occasional like foot in her mouth person. You had another story from this week about Emily Blunt that I can't even remember.

Oh yeah, because she cursed on, I think it was Good Morning America. Yeah. And she said like, bloody hell. But she's cute. She's cheeky. She found out her co-host had put out a full music album, like while they were working together. And she didn't know. And she was like, honestly astonished for her and went like, bloody hell.

And then Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci both roll their eyes because the one thing they were told was that they can't curse on the show. And then Emily Blunt does immediately go like, oh, I wasn't supposed to say that. Oh, sorry. And did one of those. but also it wasn't like she was like, beep, beep, you know, it wasn't. I didn't feel like,

I mean, it's not that, but it was so funny, immediately the eye roll, I roll, it was like a waterfall of eye rolls between Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci, but. Well, I was also trained to figure out like,

did she roll, did they roll her eyes at her because Simone Ashley was like, I just put out an album and Emily Bluntack so surprised. And I'm like, did they, is it pop?

that Merrill Streep and Stanley Tucci knew that their co-star had put out an album, and they were rolling their eyes at Emily Blunt being so obnoxious about it. I do now wonder. Because she's like, this woman you've been working with for months, it seems like probably this was something that Emily Blunt could have known, and she wasn't paying attention, and then she hears it on the show, and she's like, oh my God. And that's how I interpreted the Stanley Tucci, Merrill Streep, I roll like this, bitch. I agree with you.

you. I definitely, in watching it back, I also agree with you. And it is all the headlines are saying because of the cursing, but it's got to be because of that, right? I don't think that they would. And this is the thing. It's like if you, it's a little bit of a Rojok test because if you don't think Emily Blunt is annoying, you can watch that and be like, oh, she's so shaky. Because I didn't. Because I like Emily Blunt. And then this interview, she was in a, she was on the YouTube interview with Betches and she was asked what her advice was for women who are hate. their jobs right now. Yeah.

And she goes, quit. No. And then says, just find something that you deeply want to do. It's that simple, gals. Guys. Gals, have we not thought about this? Even if you're earning no money, as long as you love it, you'll be happy. Find something you deeply want to do.

Who cares about the bills? Very wealthy woman. And like, this is, it's just. Also, not only wealthy, but married to another wealthy. So it's like, together their wealth, like, is. not going anywhere. So it's not even like, oh, she's hanging on by thread. No, she's not. It's just it's a beautiful reverie of a reality. Yes, it's a nice idea. Sure. It's an inside thought even though. I just love that. Have you ever thought about that? Just find something you want

to do something you love. Have you considered doing something you love and not worrying about money? Have you thought about that? Have you thought about maybe that everything costs a lot of money and that like no one can really survive right now, but like do something you want to do? I I mean, don't get me wrong. Definitely have hobbies, if you can. Like, try to find, and I know that there are not many hobbies that are cheap at this point, but it's like, you can still be like, I'm going for a walk. Walkens my heart.

You know, it's like anything can be at least a hobby. So I guess you're right. Do something you want to do. Sure. Totally. But I just feel like it's a little condescending. I think it's a little. It's great advice.

Out of touch. But your, that question was, what about women? who hate their jobs, which just implies that she thinks that women were like, I'll just choose to do something I hate. Did you consider choosing to do something you like? And it's, you know, I, like we're all out here choosing to be billionaires, but we just don't really like what we do. Yeah. And I listen, I still love Emily Blunt, girl on the train or whatever. I like the book, the movie. I don't know if the movie's good or not. Girl on the train or whatever the fact she is. I like her. I like her style,

but it just goes to show that the minute you have money, you instantly, you forget, fully forget what it is like to not have money. This happens all the time with celebrities. It doesn't mean they're not like people with good hearts.

Like, and, you know, real, like, it doesn't make them, I don't even think it necessarily makes them bad people. It just, I think it's just that they're just so profoundly, Out of touch. Yeah. And, you know. The out of time. But they're not.

They're not out of touch, out of time. But, man, I wish I could be into touch and into this vampire time. I just want to let you know, MJ. And I want to let all of our listeners know that if you are in New York and you care at all about interview with a vampire, the television show, the next season is coming out. They have renamed it the Vampire Lastat. But also, MJ, they released yesterday at AMC's Upfronts that they are doing a one night only, the vampire, Lestat, where Lestat, like Sam Reed and Jacob Anderson, are going to be performing Tuesday, June 2nd at the Beacon Theater. It is a one night only, and they haven't started, I think they start selling tickets next week. And I think that it's free.

Whoa. So it's one of those where you, I mean, that's why I'm throwing out there because millions of people are going to try to get these tickets. But if you don't know about this, maybe you could at least try. I am so in love with Sam Reed. I wish I could go to this so. Because, oh my God, I know, all right, no one's ever. I'm not comparing him to Bowie. And no one can ever be Bowie, ever, ever, ever, never, ever.

It's just that the vampire lastot, like the idol, like the pop idol, it seems, just at least in the teasers, is like kind of giving that, which, Mamma Mia, Sam Reed, like, as just like a live, just like, oh, just sexual being that's just singing on, oh, I, oh my, this is good because my brain has done a little bit of a, like, misfiling. You know how like, what's it called? Like, the thing where you like, some people like hear a musical note and they see a color. Like, I have the thing where I see Sam Reed and I, instead of seeing Sam Reed, I see the actor who plays Smith Jared from Sex in the City. And it's not Sam Reed. But they look really similar. And his name is Jason Lewis.

Oh, yeah, that guy with the hair. With the hair. Yeah, Samantha's Young Hot. Yes. I mean, would. Would. Definitely would. Samantha's Young Hot.

And so whenever I'm watching interview with a vampire. Played by Jason Lewis, by the way. His real name is Jason Lewis. And whatever I'm looking at it, they could be fucking twins, man. They could be twins. With the shape of their jaws and everything, genuinely. And like, similar haircuts and everything. And so whenever I'm looking at La Stott, I'm like, oh, Smith-Jarid is playing Lestat.

And it's not him. So it's actually good for me to try to replace it with like a, like, like in the spectrum of David Bowie to Smith, Jared from Sex and the City, Sam Reed is somewhere in the middle. I'm just glad because when you were saying Smith, Jared, I was like, oh, God, which person? I thought it was going to be some just like ugly, just horrible. I'm like, no, MJ, don't do this to me. Don't ruin Sam Reed for me. No, no.

Smith Jared, I think, is probably Samantha's most memorable boyfriend from Sex in the City. Honeybee. I mean, he was just so, like, honestly, I just remember being like, wait, a man can be hot and kind of emotional. Yeah. That's like, like, literally watching sex in the city that young. I'm just like, wow, I didn't know it could be that way. Yeah. I thought I was just having sex with gay men.

I didn't realize that you could not. There's other things that you could do. But anyway, Sam Reed, I just want you to know, I can't wait. I know that you're listening. And I want you to know that I'd love some back. stage tickets and I would love to just be in your essence. Yeah. Is that a scary thing to say?

Probably. No, he's a vampire. He's a vampire. He knows, especially at this point with the cons that he goes to, I'm sure that's not anywhere near the scariest thing that anybody's ever said to him. Yeah. No, that's, and maybe I'll try to do that since I probably won't be seeing Ina Garton's live in October.

Oh, you don't want to spend $300 a ticket? The good news is, well, the bad news is, my mom will be out of town so she can't go. But the good news is that that, and since my husband almost certainly doesn't want to go, I haven't even asked him. I could just, maybe I'm just affording one ticket. So the question is, do I want to spend like a buck 25 for one ticket to go alone to see Ina Garden? And the jury's still out. I haven't closed the door on it. I'm pretty sure you're not going to be the only solo person there. I imagine quite a few people are going to be on their own. I think that it would be quite a different friendship than I

imagine like our good friend Cass who went to Dancing with the Stars, went to that tour show, sending you love Cass, and went out and like made friends at the show going solo and I was so proud. But also I think it would be a little different at an INA show. I think if you're like, look around like, guys, you're like trying to pass tutors down the road. Guys, you want to get Liddy? Guys, you want to get nuts? I'm like, is anybody else on 20 milchamps edibles? No?

No. Why not? Come on, guys. What are we doing here? We're leaving good edibles on the table. Yeah. Well, okay. That's, I mean, I really like the new interview with the vampire show. We're not totally caught up, but I really like it.

Oh, well, now you have, now you have an excuse to because the next season is coming out soon. And I cannot wait for the vampire. Let's start. Okay. And there are, you know, there's a few things I can't wait for. Like, more episodes of Margot's got money troubles. just wanted to pepper it in there. I know I brought it up on page seven. But I'm all caught up because now it's up to, like it's releasing weekly. Oh, that's nice. So sad that I'm all cut up

because Nicole Kidman as a wrestler is just everything. And Nick Offerman as a wrestler is just everything. And watching Michelle Pfeiffer shine. And it's crazy because El Fanning is the lead. And she is very good in it. She really is. She's killing it too. But the other, like the characters around L. Fanning are just killing it. I'm really into the show. And I imagine it's not everybody's cup of tea. It's definitely more of like a, you know, it's like a dromedy. Uh-huh.

But it is the, I mean, Nick Offerman's doing the wrestling. And wow, you can't take that away from my brain. Yeah. Every time you, like, name a cast member, it's just like, oh my God, they're there too. It's really, yeah. It's crazy. And the opposite way, I've also started watching Real Housewives of Rhode Island. Oh, wow. Rhode Island, of all places. MJ. Have you ever met someone from Rhode Island? And I'm not saying hashtag, not all Rhode Islanders.

Have I met someone from Rhode Island? No. I've been to Rhode Island once for a wedding. And I know that, I know it's not in Antucket. It's the other one. It's another N-word in Rhode Island. But I know they have like their fancy people. They got their fancy houses and their fancy people. It's lots of, but I think that's the thing. I've only met one person from Rhode Island when people are like, oh, when you meet somebody from New York, just wait three minutes. They'll let you know they're from New York. Yeah. But I do feel that way. And now that I'm watching Rory, I'm calling it Rory, now that I'm watching Rory, I will definitely say it took me the first three episodes to be able to tell them apart.

But it was definitely like a secret lives of Mormon wives where I'm like, this one, wait, this one husband's cheating on them doing this. this or this one's she does. Which one is the one that she, oh no, that one, that's the one that's Polly and everyone shames her for it, okay. And they all, the same. And they all talk like this. Oh, yeah. And it's very, it is, it is there.

It's like, it's Jersey, but not. Wow. Like, it's like New England, because I think of New England, like, prestige, but there is a funny New England accent. So. Oh my God. I'm sending you love Shed Dynasty in chat because we were talking because she was saying that she's from Massachusetts and she's like, I never realized.

And she's like, and we always, uh, would be. vacation in Rhode Island. She's like, I didn't even realize they had an accent. I was like, oh, you beautiful Massachusetts. Oh, you beautiful, babe. Of course you didn't. Y'all, you're all talking with your flat A's and I love it. And they are, they're just honestly, much more tan than I expected for a New England culture. Well, they're right there on the beach, but it's not. Like a Jersey. Yes. But it's not a Jersey beach. It's like a sophisticated beach. It is, it is higher class. How dare you? You never say they're from Jersey. They're not, no, it's a totally different beach culture. I was in Newport once for a weekend, had a great time. And it is, it's like, what if the

upper classes go to the beach? And I read some beach mysteries about Newport. You know me, I love my beach mysteries. You know me. I love my beach mysteries. Oh my God, do all the recipes have sand in them? These ones go ahead of recipes, all the sandwiches. You're just like, ah, ha, ha, ha. No, I'm talking about real books. But yeah, there's like a certain genre of like New England, like upper class beach, which is different. It's different. Yeah, than like a Jersey beach. Certainly is. You know what it is?

I think it's the influx of boats. I think it's more boat. It is. It's boat. In Rhode Island. And so it's a lot of talk of boat culture. But here's like, I just, I don't want to miss out on another real housewives. And I was like, I bet this one's going to be fun.

And watching even just the first episode, I was like, and they all are. Like the drama is there. They're all really great. They're all very judgmental. They're all very, uh, they all have their issues. Uh, and it's a small town. Yeah. So they all have known each other for a very long time.

Yeah. And know all the facets of them as human beings. I am, because it just started. Oh, this is new. It's brand new. Oh, man. Because I don't want to get behind anymore. I'm trying to stay ahead because you guys know, I'm still watching Real Housewives of New York

because I watch current things all the time, so it gets put to the wayside. Yeah, no, I can't work my way through like 15 years of Real Housewives of New York. But, yeah, I mean, Rhode Island is a great place to do Real Housewives because, yeah, I only know, I only know Newport, but it's like, this is a city full of a really, really, really,

old expensive houses. Great, great setting for Real Housewives. They all look the same. They really all. It's just like, it is just like trying, I feel like it's like holding up, you know, like maybe it's just because I got all this allergy testing. They hold it up to see what it matches on the chart.

I feel like I have to hold up their tan. Like what's like what level of tan are you to be able to figure out which one is which? Like I got to color code them. Yeah, I'm with it. Okay, I'll try. You know, I miss my Mormon wives. I know. We need to be watching some bitches screaming at each other.

Right. And this is where I'm getting my fix. That's the thing. We do need to be watching some bitches. But what I did have time, to watch is some murder bitches because I've got a murder show to tell you about Jackie. Buckle up. You don't even have to tell me about it because I literally made the joke not even 12 hours ago

when I saw it on Netflix and I was like, I bet MJ's watching this. And then we went past it and put on beef again because we were still watching beef. But because the name of it is so funny. Should I marry a murderer? Should I marry a murderer? Wait, is it? Should I marry murderer? Should I not marry murder? But it's not, should I not marry murderer?

It's, should I marry murderer? Should I marry murderer? I did not wait but two seconds before clicking on it. I opened Netflix. I thought, what's on, what's on Netflix? I saw, should I marry murderer? And I said, sold. We watched the trailer for it because I did really did.

I assumed MJ you either would have started watching it by now or at some point you were going to watch it. I'm glad. I'm ease. Almost finished with, I actually don't know how many episodes there are, but it's full of twists and turns. Do you want to tell me what you learned from the trailer? This is like the teaching exercise. What do you already know?

What do you want to know? It was elementary, my dear Waltz. I know that there was a fiancé. I know that she was like, what do you do when you fall madly in love? And then it's just like, you know, montage of them, they're so in love, they're so in love, they're so in love. They're so in love. And it seems perfect on paper. They're so in love.

They're so in love. And then it all comes crashing down. And then there was a lot of like, you know, stills of headlines and things like that. So that's pretty much all I know is that he was accused of murder. And she was already in love with him when he was accused of murder. Brough, he wasn't accused of murder. He confessed a murder he did to her. Well, they're in love.

They have like a war. She breaks up with her long-term partner of like 10 years. She's in medical school. She's a real smart lady. She thought she was going to marry this guy of 10 years. So basically, you know, she's in a rough place. Breakup, long, long relationship breakup. She's sad.

She's vulnerable. She meets this guy. This all takes place in Scotland, by the way. So just add that as an extra layer of delight, you know, because of the accents and the landscape. It's just like the wolf king. I'm also listening to the wolf king right now. And it's, I don't know how to do a brogue at all. But I just keep going princess at all.

at my husband because the Wolf King has the very, very deep, like Scottish broken. It's so sexy, but I just sound like Shrek every time I do it. But please continue. It's hard. I try to, I don't even. I move the air, princess. I don't even try to do a Scottish accent, except sometimes I can just get a single phrase in my head in an accent. Oh, what is it?

I was in Scotland once at like a park, and I heard a mom say to her daughter, look at the little ducks. And that's what I always think of. Oh, look at the little. Little ducks. Look at the little ducks. So we're in Scotland. I wish, it's because we have a horrific American accent. I mean, that's what the problem is.

I wish I could have a lilt. We're not making fun of you. We're jealous. No, no, just only jealous. Yes, we're jealous. But so this, this very smart, attractive lady is finishing medical school, going through a bad breakup. She meets this guy. They have kind of a whirlwind romance.

They're together for a year. year. By the time she meets him, by the way, she has, she's out of bed school, she has a job. She is a pathologist, meaning she works with dead bodies, you know, and that's her thing. And so she meets him. So if I were to have killed somebody. Literally. She has a little bit where she realizes that pathologist was on her Tinder profile. And she's like, did he ask me out because pathologist was on my Tinder profile?

And then he Googled what pathologist was, which is what I would have had to do. And then he's like, oh, whoa. Do they know? Does pathologists know how to dispose of a dead body? And so they're together for a year. He asks her to marry him. And she says yes. And all of her friends and family are like, really? It's only been a year. But she's like, we're such a good match. It's so great. And so right before Christmas, he's like, by the way, I have something to tell you. And she's like, great. What is it? And he's like, one night, me and my brother were drunk driving and we killed a cyclist. And then we buried him on the. the grounds of my farm. And he's like, can I still come to Christmas at your parents' house? So this is while they're just, but they're, so they are engaged. They're engaged. And it is, man,

it's like, God, right before Christmas. Right before. And literally, she's like, it was right before Christmas. What I'm going to do? Like, do this? Yeah, you don't do this right before Christmas. I just feel like it's like, you wait for that kind of stuff. Can you just wait after the new year and then your New Year's resolution is to get rid of the corpse? Like, he just like, he didn't, he didn't wait. And she didn't, break up with him because she had already invited him to Christmas. And what do you do? Daddy, I love him. Exactly. What do you do when you've already invited a murder to Christmas?

But at this point, I mean, it's going to ruin the table settings. Like at that point, you got to invite him to the dinner. I mean. And I think in her head, she's like, well, maybe it was just manslaughter. Like, you did run him over with a car. Because you were drunk driving, but maybe it's just manslaughter. And then he's like, actually, no, I definitely, like, he was still alive after. we hit him and then we, and then we buried him. And so it's that, you know, that tips the scales over into murder. And this is like, it's a docu-series. Again, I don't know how many episodes there are. I'm on episode three. And I'm not trying to like spoil things for people who do want to watch it. Obviously, I'm not spoiling anything right now because you know he is a murderer from the title, should I marry a murderer. So, but the one thing that I do want to say, which is kind of a minor spoiler, but he lives on this like massive Scottish, what do you call it?

It's not a farm, a Scottish, like, what do you call it? Like a highland? Yeah, exactly. Like where the queen goes for the weekend. Also, there are three episodes, by the way. Three, like, three, like 50 to 55 minute episodes. Whatever you call, like, what the, what the royal family calls, you know, badminster or whatever. No, that's Trump's place.

What the place that they go, the royal family goes, you know, it's a Scottish. Bad boy school. Is it bad boy, is that boy school? Scottish weekend house. He has this massive plot of land. And he's like, the dead guy's buried. in my on my plot of land. We've hung out where his body is a bunch of times, you and me.

And she's like, good God. And he's like, by the way, do you know how to dispose of a body to destroy a body? Because, well, he is buried, but I would love to just, like, not have a body on my property. Plant a tree on top of it and keep it to your death. What are you talking about? Put a fucking tree there. So she's like, I should do something about this. I don't want to be complicit with this.

But she's like, well, okay, I got to figure out where this body is because if I tell the cops, they're never going to find this body because he has a huge, huge, like, a state. There you go, estate. Thank you. And this is the one little detail that's kind of a fun reveal that I'm going to reveal here. So plug yours. If you don't want it spoiled, fast forward 20 seconds. They're walking on the property and she's like, where is the body? And he's like, it's right here.

And she's drinking a Red Bull. and as they're walking away, she chucks the Red Bull over her shoulder. And he's like, why did you do that? Don't litter on my property. Go pick it up. And he keeps walking forward. And she's like, oh my God,

what was I thinking? I shouldn't have done that. And then she goes back. And instead of picking it up, she fucking stomps the Red Bull flat and then keeps walking. And she uses the Red Bull can to mark where the fucking corpse is buried.

I can tell you right now, I would never, ever in a million years. Yeah. I wouldn't. I wouldn't marry that person. If you're thinking about trying to, like, flag where the body is, you shouldn't. I wouldn't think of that. Like, she finds herself.

Like, I've read books, novels about this. I thought that that's what you're planning for. That's all I think about. That's only, like, I thought that you were the one that, like, I'm going to call. Like, you're the pathologist for me. I know. But just because of the books you read. This is the only type of book I read.

And I would have never thought, yeah, leave the fucking Red Bull can there. And. Although I say this, and I watch a lot of the show. show alone as if I could ever be left in the environment somewhere and also be like, well, first you got to find a food source and then you got to make sure you get shelter and then you got I can tell you what to do. I wouldn't know how to do it. Right, right, right. Yeah. But so, so, and so then there, you know, that basically this is a really another one just like, trust me, the false profit. This is another one where the police are like, sure, we have the body that he buried on his

property, but how could we charge him with a crime? So then she has to be. You're the one with the Red Bull here. Just looking at the woman that left the evidence. Yeah. So she then has to try to figure out how to like continue to exist while this guy has figured out that, you know, the police have found a body on his property but not arrested him because they are trying to figure out what to charge him with because they don't know whether the guy was alive or dead when he was buried.

It's a fucking crazy wild ride. And if you love true crime, you'll love it. Aren't you going to get an ick from a guy that does this? Like, you don't even know how to dispose of the body at this point. Like, it's like, go figure it out. Well, it's been a book from the library. It's a bit of an ick roller coaster. I think, and I mentioned that she's like a smart and beautiful woman because I did spend a lot of the time watching the show and just being like, why didn't you deserve, why didn't you believe that you deserve somebody who's not this guy?

I'm going to throw it out there. A lot of the Reddits are saying that she herself is very annoying. Oh, please. I got a lot of people out of here. I know, surprise. A lot of people on Reddit. saying the woman is annoying. I know.

But did you find that at all? Did you feel that at all? I mean, it's a little bit annoying to watch somebody like try to figure out what you should do when you're dating a murderer. But no, she's like, I was annoyed with her because I was like, girl, get better standards, you know. Insecurity. Yeah. Believe in yourself. What do you do a self-esteem worksheet or something where you can believe that you don't have to be with this man?

You don't need this. So it's, you know, I would say it's frustrating. But anybody who's describing her as annoying. I don't know. She's just a woman trying to figure out what to do. I'm just a woman standing in front of a man who murdered somebody. Desperate to be wanted and married that even after discovering this man is a murderer, she continued to entertain the fact of loving him, man, scathing.

Reddits are really, I'm just like, but also maybe we need to lift this woman up then. Maybe you shouldn't be like, what an idiot. What sounds like she might need a little bit of support is what it sounds like. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I get I, now I'm constantly quoting fucking Whitney from Secret Lives and Mormon Wives and season four, I think. Wow. The part, this is another one of these things where I'm quoting something and nobody knows

what I'm referencing. But the part. It's okay. We all have it. We all get it stuck in the crawl. When she's talking about how everyone's saying she's just doing dance, just doing the show so she could do dancing with the stars. And she goes, they're not wrong.

They're right. And I just think that that's so funny. So I think that this is a, the Reddit people are not wrong. They're right. They're right. But, you know, whatever. Who amongst us has entertained staying with a murderer, you know? We've, you know, we've all, you know, it's hard dating out there.

You know, I mean, it really is. You find somebody with an estate that's kind of nice to you. I mean. Right. And especially like if you're like a Hannah Swenson type, which I'm not saying this person is. No, she is. it just seems like she might be a little bit of a Hannah Swenson type if she's put in the Red Bull that you're right MJ I will never like to catch a predator I'll never host that show I'll never

I'd love to also I did see and I do kind of want to look into this and I'm saying this completely I have not checked on this but I saw some meme like last week that was saying that to catch a predator was actually canceled originally because they were like big The reason why, and like the loose reason why is that they were catching so many law enforcement, so many people in government, so many that they were forced to stop the show. Wow. Because of how great the show was at catching actual predators. People in power. And they stopped the show.

Whoa. Isn't that crazy? That is crazy. That was another culture. But again, haven't looked into it. I don't know if that's unsubstantial. but it makes kind of make sense. It's hearsay.

That was another one of those things. Like that was a cultural phenomenon that like was a very like prime time cultural phenomenon and it was a time in my life that I just wasn't watching prime time. And so I obviously remember that show as like a thing, but I never really watched it. And also I was like pretty grossed out by everything about it. So I didn't watch it. But that is pretty interesting. Sorry.

It is, this is deeper. I will also say part. of the cancellation, at least again, according to the, I have to shut it off. I have to shut off my browser, AI overview, that it was actually following death by suicide of a Texas prosecutor who took his own life after being served a warrant from the show. Yeah, yeah. And that will happen. But I mean, a Texas prosecutor. I mean, so that's, it was getting up up the chain there. But, you know, that's, I used to watch that show all the time.

And, like, that was, like, right after my world of being very dangerous in chat rooms. And then watching this show just being like, I mean, that's part of the reason why I'm like, they should maybe put this show back. Like, we should be scared of sharing. You know, it's like, in some time, like, you should be a little bit. Or do one where it's like you're doing one just like how to catch a scam predator, you know, going through and catching the piece. I mean, oh, God, what was that show?

Oh, never mind. I'm, I don't, I can't remember it. And I'm not going down that. Trafficking. That's what it was. Yeah, wow, only one season, 2004. That's what I would, if you would ask me, I would have said to catch a predator as 10 seasons. It was such a phenomenon.

It was just one season. Wow. No, and we just think about it to this day. That's what I was thinking of trafficked with Mariana Van Zeller, which is this crazy show with this awesome bitch named Mariana Van Zeller, who is a, like a very, go get them, I'm not going to say crazy journalist, but she's someone that is after the story and to uncover really crazy shit.

And it's all about different trafficking rings, like about all different things that can be trafficked. And so much of it is things that you wouldn't even think could be, like trafficked per se. But she does have multiple episodes going into different, kinds of scams of like love scams and and like phone

like that kind of like phone scams and uncovering so many rings of it. She's really cool and then you find her like she's like working with the cartels and she's like shooting this stuff that I'm like how is she able to do? Isn't she so scared as just a woman with a fucking camera

person? Like I don't very inspirational person. Well I was thinking about this the whole time during Watching, should I marry a murder? I was like, girl, I hope that this man, you know, I'm not saying, yeah, I guess I'm saying, I hope he's behind bars for life if you're making this docu series because he's going to be real upset that you're saying all this stuff.

You know, it's the same maybe just because it's Scottish, but I was thinking about baby reindeer. And I was like, wow, you made baby reindeer and this bitch is still alive and still out there. And also I'm thinking about that because I know the baby reindeer guy made something new. And I thought, ooh, that's nice. Is that why? Because they have baby Ranger at the, like in the front of Netflix. It's like on one of the end. I was like, oh, I wonder why baby reindeer's coming back around. And that would make a lot of sense.

I think Richard Gad has a new show called Halfman. And I don't know what it's about, but it reminded me that I love baby reindeer. Oh, when Niles, a strange brother, Rubin shows up at his wedding, it leads to an explosion of violence that catapults us back through their lives from the 80s to the present day. Fun. I'm with it. I really like him. All right. Word on the street is, it's interesting.

Okay. All right. We'll check that out. I'll check out interesting in the same way that I did want to tell you about because did you know that your boy, Rees? Was it Matthew Rees? Yeah, Matthew Rees. That is my boy. Thank you for remembering. Your boy, Matthew Rees is starring in this show called Widows Bay on Apple TV. Everybody talking about it. Everybody talking about it. A New England mayor trying to boost tourism on his island must navigate strange events suggesting it might be cursed. and apparently horror comedy. And it is already the first two episodes, I think they dropped yesterday. So I haven't had a chance to see it yet, but a lot of people are talking about it being great. Oh. So again, I've not watched it yet,

but I just wanted to lay it upon your feet, your Matthew Ree's loving feet, and say, if you'd like to watch it, I'm probably going to watch this. Have you not done the American? or have you? I haven't. You haven't?

No, I can't do it. It's really, really, really dark, but. Yeah, I don't know if I care. Oh, no, you do. There's a lot of sex in it. Does that do anything for you? I mean, yes, but it is Matthew Ree's sex. And I, the woman who plays Felicity,

I'm against that. The woman who plays Felicity, who's not Felicity Huffman, and I always forget her name. Elizabeth. What the hell is her name? Elizabeth. That's not her name. Carrie Russell. Carrie Russell.

Sorry. Hello. No, it's okay. It's all right. It's not. I understand. You want to call her Felicity Huffman. Everyone thinks her name is Felicity.

We get it. I'm so sorry. We understand. Carrie Russell. She's, do you want to watch her have sex? Yeah. Wow. This is not the reception I was hoping for it.

I mean, I guess if this is something that you need from me, I'll give it to you. No, it's okay. Do you need it? I don't think you need to watch it. But I hate to be one of those people that's like you haven't seen The Godfather. But I do think the Americans is like one of the best of like those types of shows, like a prestige. Prestige thriller drama. I think it is in the top 10.

Ooh, okay. All right. It's just getting confused with the other one where they're spies and then they also fuck each other. another show, there's another big show where there's spies where they fuck each other. And it's called like, the United States. Like, there's like another. I know there's another one. There's another two people banging show where they're two spies.

Ooh, I mean, it's like a long show because I didn't realize the Americans was only one season. No, the Americans is not only one season. The Americans has many seasons. It has many seasons. The Americans has many seasons. Why does it just say 2015 on it? The Americans has. Oh, 75 episodes.

There you go. It has many seasons. And yes, they are Russian spies playing Americans in the United States at the height of the Cold War. And, oh, it's a good show. But what are you thinking of? Just giving me the Americans. Just giving me the Americans. It's just the Americans.

Wait, are you Googling two spies who fought two KGB spies kissing drama show? And it's not given me any. It's like you definitely mean the Americans. You definitely are definitely talking about the Americans. So I guess I'm only thinking about the Americans. And even when I thought it was a different show, I didn't want to watch that one either. I don't know. I think I got it with Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

I feel like I did it. It's already been done. It already ruined a marriage. That's fine. But if you don't, listen to your heart. If you don't want to watch it, you should not watch it. I think I appreciate you that maybe someday I'm going to get in there. but I know Widows Bay, Matthew Reese,

I don't know if people are just saying that it's Stephen King-esque or if Stephen King wrote it. Okay. But I know everybody keeps talking about Stephen King, but it's also a horror comedy. So I know that it's like Kate Dippold is the creator of this,

so I don't know why they keep saying, but then you immediately pops up, Stephen King, Widows Bay, Stephen King, hold, hold. Interesting. Okay, it's not. It's just heavily. inspired by Stephen King. That's it. I mean, yeah, it looks like a Stephen. I just wanted to check because it's like I thought that it was, but it's also sillier it seems. I don't know. I'm intrigued.

Okay. This is good. I can successfully convince my husband to watch something with Matthew Reese in it because we both love the Americans so much. And Stephen Root is in it. I mean, I mean, I'll watch anything with Stephen Root in it pretty much. Yeah. And especially something that's, you know, sometimes the horror shows lose me a little bit. Sometimes I feel like it gets so in the paint that it loses the horror aspect of it, some of them, not all of them. And sometimes I find it gets a little borough snorough. So I hope that this is not the case with this one. Yeah.

Okay. Well, hopefully I'll be able to report back. I'm full disclosure. I'm not. Oh, you're about to graduate grad school. I'm struggling to consume culture right now. But that's going to be over really soon. So, so soon.

And then you're going to be celebrating your wedding anniversary and it's going to be wonderful. Yes. And not just the only way you're celebrating it is by talking to me about it on this show. That is how I'm celebrating. Thank you for noticing. Yes. And also I want to notice your graduation quote. I'd love it if you could share with the class because MJ texted me yesterday because they were.

So what are you asked for a graduation quote for per se? Okay. So this is, mind you, I am not an academic and I haven't been in school, you know, for quite a long time. And now I'm finishing this master's program. And apparently when you get a master's, there's something called a hooding ceremony. And does that sound extremely cult like? Yes, it does. Are they cutting off the tips of dicks?

Whoa. Are they going to make everybody cut off the tips of dicks? And so I go to a CUNY school. So graduation at a CUNY school is like there's like 4,000 people. And so then in addition to the graduation, they have the hooding ceremony, which is I can't even say it without laughing. Ew, hooding ceremony is horrific. I know. It's very scary.

After all this time, we couldn't have come up with a better phrase? I guess. Can we not? Can we call it like the robing ceremony? Like any, the hoodding is rough. I know. I know. I feel the same way.

I'm really struggling with talking about my hooding ceremony. Ugh. But that's the one where it's like, it's your department. and like you will be recognized and your name will be read and your work will be displayed and all of that. So it's for the hooding ceremony.

I submitted, they said submit a picture. I'm hoping they meant a headshot. I'm worried that they meant like an inspirational sunset or something and I just submitted a big picture of myself. And everyone else is going to have some sort of meaningful picture

that's not them and that might just could be a big picture of me. That wouldn't make any sense. MJ I'm going to squash your anxieties here. They wanted a picture of you. It just said to sit a picture. That could mean anything, Jackie. What if I'm the only one?

Just you flicking off the care. Just your middle hand flicking off. I should have submitted one where I was visibly drunk. Or just showing your wallet empty. Just like, thanks grad school. Well, thanks CUNY because it's very affordable. That is one of the public public colleges in the city of New York. But then one of the questions for like the intake form for the holling ceremony was,

what is a statement or quote that captures the essence of your experience? and growth or a statement of gratitude. And I spent about five seconds trying to think of like an actual meaningful quote about, you know, like there's the quote that's like you're not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you allowed to ignore it or whatever. There's good quotes about whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's not what you chose.

My quote is indeed, we didn't come this far just to come this far. Mike, the situation Sorrentino. Situation Sorrentino. He's going to be representing. the graduation. Get crazy. We didn't come this far. Just to come this far.

We didn't come this far. Just to come this far. And we, MJ and I, like in our, I believe, both in our personal lives, I say we didn't come this far just to come this far all the time. Yeah.

I say it as a bomb for my spirit all the time. And I'm so proud. I'm so proud of you. I'm so proud of you, MJ. Thank you. You're absolutely killing it. but also we didn't come this far just to come this far.

We didn't come this far just to come this far. The problem is it's not a very good quote. What? But it is Mike, the situation Sorrentino. That's the thing. And I am truly inspired by Mike the situation Sorrentino, like genuinely. We read the book. And like I'm truly moved by him.

And so I'm actually doing this because I actually, I wanted to. And because it made me laugh. And because I've been doing a lot of crying. You got to take the moment that makes you laugh and you got to lean into it. You got to take the laughs when you get the laughs. I do. I hope and I know they're not going to read it aloud, but in my dreams they read it aloud at your hooding ceremony.

Yeah. And people are just like, yeah, whoever the fuck you are, that's great. Yes. Yeah, no, it's going to be a very small, you know, it's a small department. I'm sure that everyone else, if everyone's picture, hopefully of them, is displayed. And then everyone else is going to have like an actual inspiration. Oh my God, no, it's only your picture. All of their regular other pictures of other things of all their inspiration.

Your picture. We didn't come this far just to come this far. People like, wow, maybe that's the move. Like, are we not stunting enough over here? We should take a picture out of MJ's book, but it's just going to be a picture of them. So I don't know. I don't know if we should. Yeah, so now I'm terrified of the hooding ceremony.

I'm afraid I'm going to have humiliated myself on multiple levels. Hell no. No, no, no. but you should, like the situation, hide drugs in the souls of your shoes. Yeah, that's what Jackie texts in your shoes. Let's put some drugs in the soul's your shoes. Remember, just remember what the situation went through, all right?

I know. Remember what he had to do to do all those drugs in Italy, okay? It was hard for him. I know, and now they're out. Once again, the cast of the Jersey Shores out here having a great time. I know Polly's wearing that funny hat. Oh, my God. Can we just, I know we have to end the show.

I know we got to end the show. We have to talk about this Polly D outfit. and I want to say, oh, God, someone, someone sent it to me on Instagram and I want to say, thank you so much. Yeah. Because Polly D was at stage coach, which again, for those that don't really know, like, there's Coachella and then there's like country Coachella. And I know that's really, I'm very much like streamlining it, but that's essentially like a stage coach. And he was DJ Paul E.D. was there. And he was DJing.

And he had on a cowboy hat that had the whole top of the cowboy hat. removed from the hat, which, yes, some might call that a sun visor. But he doesn't. He uses the entire portion of the bottom of the hat so that it doesn't squash his hair. Because all else is he was going to squash his hair. So what is he going to do when he said stagecoach if he's going to squash his hair? Take the top off it. You got to take the top off that hat.

God, I love that man. He's got a sunroof on top. And I know he's a Republican, but I just. I know he is a piece of garbage. We know he's a piece of garbage. Oh, but God, what a fun. Boys are fighting. Boys are fighting.

Oh, I meant to this. There was somebody in my neighbor. At least he didn't write, boys are fighting for your quote. But I'm sorry. Someone in my neighborhood Facebook group yesterday posted a screenshot from the citizen app from an intersection of my neighborhood. And the alert on the citizen app was two officers fighting. And it was two police officers were punching each other. And all I could think of was boys are fighting.

Boys are fighting. Boy, you should have written that underneath it. Boys are fighting. Boys are fighting. Yes. Oh, my God. And then also shout out to Jay Wow, who, you know, they've been doing, like, press for the, I think, the final season of family reunion.

And Jay Wow did say that her own children like to troll her by saying, where's the beach to her? That's so funny. It's so good. Even though technically it's like, I mean, go to your aunt Snooky for that. Yeah, and Jay Wound didn't even say it. Kedewan wasn't even there. She said, you can either stay and get your ass beat or stay and get your ass beat. So that's more, that's what I would be saying to J-Wow.

Staying get your ass-beat. Are you stay and get your ass-beat? I think that's another quote. Jersey Shore really does live in the frontal lobe of my brain, unfortunately. Of course, after I submitted the situation quote, I was like, I should have put the note as the quote, you know, but that one. Yes. Oh my God. Maybe that's what they were fighting about.

Maybe he got a note and maybe his, you know, his head was between two bosoms the night before. We saw Ronnie looking at two fat women. What is it? Two fat women at the club. I, forever, I mean, I've got an amazing person in chat, but in the coven sent me a full blanket of the note that I put on the guest bed. Every time someone comes to stay and every time I pull it out, I'm just like, God, it's just such a funny. It's so funny as a blanket. It's such a funny thing to have as an entire blanket.

It's an entire blanket. The quote, sorry, is also it was grinding with multiple fat women. Multiple fat women. Thank you. It wasn't just two. No, multiple fat women. So, thank you, Jersey Shore for living in a place in time where it can never be made again and it really shouldn't be. You know, it was a different time back then.

And yes, now they're all, I think a lot, I think most of them are maga monsters. And we know that. We do understand. but also, it's funny. Yeah. It's just funny. They're just, you know, it's just,

we've just loved them for so long. Yeah. How do you stop loving? Should I marry a murder? You know, it's like that. I think it all comes down to that. You know, if you got to ask the question, I think you have the answer.

Yeah, asked and answered. Yeah, but she, I am hoping, through the episodes, figures that out. I don't know yet, because I haven't finished episode three. Jackie, you got to,

you're not going to watch it. You don't have to, but it's, I might watch. No, this one I might watch, because this one seems like a silly head one. Yeah, yeah. No, it's a roller coaster.

You think, oh, she's not going to marry that murderer. And then you think maybe she will. Whoa, whoa. But if you got to ask the question, you already have the answer, but it sounds like she didn't listen to it. But it sounds like you listen to this entire episode. Thank you guys so much for hanging out with us today on Second Helping's Ida Blast. Togamama friggin movies.

I'm very excited. We're going to see Hocom this weekend. excited to see it. New Adam Scott horror movie. Same person that did oddity and caveat. Right? I don't know. Okay. Yeah. Same director did oddity and caveat. Very, very excited about that. And, you know, at least we can send Megan Markle off with a, you did it. The astrology section of the hardest seven years of your life is over. Yeah. She did just say, because for everyone that's in the astrology world right now, you do know that everybody is a hubbub because something, something, something, seven years, something, something, something seven days. It has nothing to do with the ring.

It's something about Taurus, Leo, and Scorpio and Aquarius and something with the moons and I like it. You know I like this stuff, but I don't really quite know exactly what's happening. All I know is that our hardships are ending. And that's what Megan Markle posted. And so, guys, that's why she's had a rough seven years. It was astrology. It was the star. It was the stars. It was the stars that were doing it. And not just, you know, racism through the many governments that she now deals with. And also not doing her work.
