Starting point is 00:02:49 After six episodes of Friends Season 2. I'm feeling fantastic, friend. This was fun. You know, the show is consistent. We're tackling new dynamics. We're tackling new themes. We're tackling money problems and babies and jealousy in reverse and manipulation.

Starting point is 00:03:11 It's been a good six episodes. It's been a great couple of hours. I'm really enjoying it. I'm thoroughly enjoying these most recent episodes. And I look forward to watching more. But before I dive into the other things that people are sending us, Johnny Boy, how are you? feeling, Brando?

Starting point is 00:03:31 I'm feeling, man. I'm feeling good. We've been through so many hijinks, so many jokes and bits and gags. We've had guest stars. We've had hilarious bits. I got to actually, it's funny, you will

Starting point is 00:03:46 sometimes see us on camera with notebooks or, you know, pads and taking little, you know, uh, and there are times where I just want to be able to write and aside and be like, this was particularly, funny. Remember this joke

Starting point is 00:04:02 because there were you know we laughed throughout these but there were a couple that like I'm going to have to go back and dig back for it because there were some really like clever and choice jokes and some fun games in these episodes especially with like yeah the whole conversation between

Starting point is 00:04:18 Monica and Rachel that's as if it was like about cheating when it's just about them like going shopping and establishing a friendship or you know the there were a lot of those like inverted situations where it's like one the seriousness and dialogue of one type of scene

Starting point is 00:04:35 applied to something innocuous or silly I thought it was a really fun thing they did a handful of times across these episodes but yeah it says continuing to be a very joyful experience here I love the friends and I liked seeing them confront some adversities this week

Starting point is 00:04:51 work out some conflicts within the group everyone got a new haircut yeah he said goodbye to Mr. Heckler I'm going to miss them. He's great. My favorites. Soma, we heard the iconic smelly cat.

Starting point is 00:05:04 Like, shit's crazy. Yeah? Gang, we got some questions from the patrons jump into before we go into a, you know, hours long, deep dive into every moment breaking down each joke,

Starting point is 00:05:18 plot line, and performance note. Kicking us off today. Oh, wait, no, it's, there you go. Every video, got to make sure that we're on brand. Stephanie Wharton, thank you for chiming in. Appreciate you being our friend

Starting point is 00:05:34 along this journey. Now that you all have seen episodes, 1 by 24 and 2 by 1, what do you think of the classic, quote, airport chase for the loved one trope and how it was used in this instance? Also, any thoughts on how it speaks

Starting point is 00:05:49 to the pre-9-11 time it was filmed in? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. They can't do that no more. You can't just walk up on the terminal or even on the plane like you could back in the 90s. You could walk into the lobby of the airport or you could walk back out. Pretty much. Pretty pretty much. But yeah, I thought it was fun.

Starting point is 00:06:14 I thought it was really great. You know, I kind of missed that time. You know, I wish I got to experience that as an adult. You know, people just like waiting outside the terminal for you. I think I have vague memories of coming home. from Ohio or my family used to live and my dad would be at the end of the terminal I think that's I think that's a thing maybe my memory's lying to me but I really dug it here how they book in you know or they book into the season of the first one with that and then literally start us off with the resolution

Starting point is 00:06:47 of that scene in the beginning and then how that sets the tone for Ross and Rachel's relationship in this new season um and yeah I also think that it's speaks to we were a lot more lax before 2001 before September 11th, 2001 but yeah, I like the trope and you know I don't know if there'll ever be a day that comes back

Starting point is 00:07:12 but you know I'm happy we can still see it in movies and shows. Yeah, yeah I have that same kind of like vague recollection at the back of my mind of like oh yeah you know like kind of any step of the way you might be able to encounter somebody who's just there to hang out out with you or to pick you up or whatever it is and now yeah if you aren't flying you might not

Starting point is 00:07:33 make it past the curb most of the time and uh it's just yeah fun you know the further we go on the more of a you know i think when that was more possible in actual life the trope would become a little more like ah you know it's cheesy blah blah blah and now because it's no longer the norm it's kind of a charming relic of the past uh that yeah you would never see today. So, yeah, I appreciated it, and it made for a really nice wallop because, too, after everything with Ross

Starting point is 00:08:06 pining for Rachel in the first season, for her to be the one making this realization and running to the airport, you know, and we're like, oh, hell yeah, it's finally going to, they're finally going to, you know, give it a try, you know, and then he gets off the plane with Julie. It's, you know, it's a nice, you know,

Starting point is 00:08:23 opportunity for some awkward comedy. And a bit of blood in the show. Do you need a bit of blood? Leading it from the forehead. You got that cool zebra pattern Blanky, or not Blanky, Band-Aid because you got the Blanky, I was looking at the Blanky. I do.

Starting point is 00:08:37 You try to wrap your head with a blankie. It's so warm and it's so soft. Josh, John washed it. I did. Brought it in and watched the blanket. Smells good. It smells so fresh. Get yours of Regination.com.

Starting point is 00:08:49 Yeah. Every one you order is washed by me personally. And every kiss begins with K. But yeah, too, there are a lot of establishing shots. that feature the Twin Towers. So it always kind of roots you in that time and place. And watching this, I kept forgetting, like, oh, I think they did film.

Starting point is 00:09:04 Like, any show that's about New York, there's a part of my brain that's like, did they shoot this one there, or did they shoot it here? And now I'm like, well, there's a central perk on the Warner Brothers back lot here. So, like, I'm pretty sure they would have shot a lot of this here. You know what I just realized? Is that this show is going to go on past the point of 9-11. So they're probably addressed at some point.

Starting point is 00:09:26 Probably well. Yeah, that's going to be crazy. But, yeah, like, seeing the back lot and I feel like this was shot out here. Comment below if you know. It was like Brooklyn Nine-Nine shot out here. There were certain exteriors at times where, is that downtown LA or is that New York? Yeah. Is this a back lot I've been on before, or is this, you know, an East Coast backlog?

Starting point is 00:09:48 Either way, yeah, a very charming use of the trope and, you know, a fun start to the Ross Rachel saga, I understand, is a big through line of the show. there we go recalibrate my brain for the clap san rack Aaron and John now that the show is settling into a rhythm

Starting point is 00:10:07 with the writing what are your thoughts on elements like pacing joke writing how a plots how A plots engage or not with B plots

Starting point is 00:10:16 etc especially interested in how you both felt about the one with the five stakes and the eggplant which saw the writers tackle

Starting point is 00:10:23 income inequality between the friends I really liked that episode I think that was my favorite of the six because it was like oh we're still a comedy but we're dressing like real things within friend groups

Starting point is 00:10:35 and I feel like the way that they navigated that was interesting because I thought they were going to come to the happy go lucky resolution where they all end up going to hooty and the blowfish but no they stood 10 tones down and like no we're not going to go

Starting point is 00:10:48 and we don't want your croupity handouts and yeah that's just a very real thing in the real world so I appreciated it. But to answer your first question, I thought it's, you know, they're getting real tight with it. Getting real good.

Starting point is 00:11:02 I felt like, and even those first few episodes, it's like where we were season one around this time. I don't know if it's, how much of it is the writing. Should I stop? Okay. I don't know how much of it is the writing has improved

Starting point is 00:11:19 and, like, found the rhythm versus how much of it is being accustomed. to the pacing of the show but it feels like these first six episodes went by really fast and they found it kind of like got this comfortable thing of having these characters all paired up in different scenarios and having it feel satisfying whereas maybe those first six episodes are like okay this is like it's fun but this is a lot but I didn't feel that sense of minor overwhelmedness yeah these the first six episodes of season two I feel like they they do have like a

Starting point is 00:11:56 stride of sorts being established certainly and I mean part of that is just because the you know cast is so I mean they've had a lot of chemistry and have been very fine tuned up till now but I feel like

Starting point is 00:12:12 you know obviously you're at a point where now they have like a cruising out to tune a rhythm that's been established that's you know now in the place where you can really start honing it and finer tuning it and it feels like the writers are well in step with that and they're probably at this point a little bit more attenuated to writing for each person's specific voice and stuff like that and yeah i thought there were a lot

Starting point is 00:12:36 of really fun games that they played across this and too i i'm continuing to admire the way that they have certain again serialized elements is julie just a way for one of these or or you know she's not in the few i think she's like in half of them or at least like because there was that bit where Ross was like oh I miss Julie and and I was like they're not just going to like

Starting point is 00:13:02 write her off you know in a single line or something like that right I feel like there's got to be some kind of at least I don't expect Julie to maintain for the whole show they said she was in like she went somewhere she's on a trip she's away okay but yeah like this idea that he's got this girlfriend now and there was that

Starting point is 00:13:18 whole thing where like Palo comes back for a second and even the more episodic stuff of like, oh, Chandler trying to date and things like that. Like they, they nicely make these so that they can easily be taken always, you know, just in

Starting point is 00:13:34 isolation, but also yeah, like I think they use the serial story, which is often one of the A or a adjacent plots in a way that kind of nicely, you know, bolsters, gives things like a backbone to hang

Starting point is 00:13:52 stuff on, but then also, you know, makes for other games within the B plots and stuff. And, uh, you know, I, I really enjoyed a lot of, like, especially that one, uh, uh, uh, the one we were just talking about with it, where they're talking about the friend group and the, and the money and all that stuff, five stakes in an eggplant. Like, I really liked that because, yeah, that one was like very funny and it didn't like stop fully to be a very special episode of, uh, but it still like didn't mind seemingly you know just being candid about a conversation and letting them not agree and realizing you could still have fun even if everybody's not on the same page

Starting point is 00:14:34 or the one where mr heckles dies i thought was like a nice one because that kind of trickles into some of the other kind of you know more silly plot stuff but even like you know rachel and monica dealing with the lamp and everything like is a bit innocuous but even then that's getting to the deeper point of the idea that they need to kind of reauthor the space and accept that it's both of theirs and it's not just Monica letting Rachel borrow a room or whatever, especially if she is

Starting point is 00:15:01 like they're paying half the rent and stuff. So yeah, and like they all go over to Ross's at one point for another like dinner thing and I feel like they've been doing nice to like expand on stuff and you see like oh yeah how they take care of the kid. The kid factors in some of the time but not all the time

Starting point is 00:15:19 it's not like every episode has to deal with the kid and so yeah I feel like they've done so far nicely to be adept at jumping back and forth between a bunch of the things that they have established up till now that they have at their disposal while also not losing sight of the heart and soul of just having fun with everybody quipping and bantering at each other and two I mean this had a lot of things where like

Starting point is 00:15:42 people were trying to get back at each other or you know are dealing with direct interpersonal conflicts Rachel and Phoebe, you know, having to do, having to, you know, kind of confront this idea of like, well, the business wants to hire a different kind of musician and, you know, they don't want to pay you. And so there's like personal anger, but there's also, you know, anger at a bigger situation than that. And I don't know. Yeah, they, these episodes, like, had actual conflicts. I mean, them leaving the baby on the bus is mostly funny and doesn't amount to, like, much true conflict. Yeah. But, like, a lot of what we did here, I think, nicely. found more ways of incorporating dramatic ideas or things that friend groups might go through, but in a way that, yeah, doesn't feel like it's clashing with the comedy or taking you out of the fun. And it makes it kind of nice in that you can let the characters grow to a degree, but not so much that it messes with, like, the things that need to stay constant for episodic comedy to work. yeah

Starting point is 00:16:46 I feel like they they're finding that that rhythm between like obviously the things that are more heightened like episode six and then obviously the way that

Starting point is 00:16:56 things like the the one with heckles dies and I would end it like a very I don't know what's the word for it not solemn it wasn't sad per se

Starting point is 00:17:06 but just like a reflective reflective sort of tone and then obviously the one with where Monica gets fire that one was like sort of a sadder tone and then the one

Starting point is 00:17:14 the one with the baby on the bus. I don't think that one's like the most entitled sitcom episode of it. Because everyone's going through like a wacky situation in that episode. Even though obviously they go through a wacky situation every week. But I felt like, yeah, there was more wackiness overall with everybody. That one was the most sort of like all the plots feeling a bit isolated from each other. because, yeah, you have just the funning games of Joey and Chandler around town plus baby. And some nice stuff with, like, Monica and Ross being brother and sister.

Starting point is 00:17:50 I think, like, that was kind of the nice, heartfelt thing. And I do like the resolve between Rachel and Phoebe. But it did, like, of all of them, does feel like the most, yeah, like, and I think it's fair for a show like this was as many episodes as there are a season to have that, where it's like, yeah, this is a fun one. And, like, it's not like we're not going to have a lesson or people aren't going to go through something touching. But, like, yeah, there are going to be three wacky plots and they're all going to kind of only really collide

Starting point is 00:18:15 in that these are, you know, in everyone's common spaces at one point or another or characters are touching base sometimes. Whereas, like, the, you know, the moment where Hekels dies is really nice because, like, that whole thing is, like, Chandler gets reflective and he starts to kind of contemplate what he wants, and then Monica and Rachel

Starting point is 00:18:34 have their own thing due to this. And, like, yeah, that was, I think, to your question, a nice instance. of like the circumstances of an episode permeating all the plots versus one like the sixth episode, the baby episode, that feels very much like this is an episodic totally. It's not, I'm not calling it filler, but it's kind of like when anime shows like jump back and forth between these are the more intricate ones that are more like plot oriented. And here are ones that are more just like, oh, here's some fun bits of the week.

Starting point is 00:19:03 Yeah, it didn't, it didn't, it was fun, it was sitcom in the sense where it was purely a situational comedy and that nothing necessarily progressed the overarching arc of the season or the development of the characters yeah just straight things uh joey's taylor very funny that was a funny that was that was wild and hilarious uh had been tragic the amount of of a big deal uh they made over the breast milk was very funny and very wild the whole thing with ombray i thought was hilarious that that subplot relatively detached from things very funny yeah And the one with Phoebe's husband, honestly, weirdly, that's one where I kind of wanted, I liked the game of him being like, I'm straight, and I'm coming out as straight, and like my brother's straight, my parents are cool.

Starting point is 00:19:53 Like, very fun stuff, and part of me almost wanted a little bit more. I just, not that it didn't do much with it or anything like that, but I was like, I kind of want to know more about this facet of Phoebe's life and this Steve's on guy. Yeah. I probably we just get little random nuggets of Phoebe's interesting life throughout the course of the show. And they're typically like one-off things, you know? Yeah. Like, yeah, she doesn't really have any overarching stories, at least thus far in the show. I've been hearing about Mint Mobile ads for years.

Starting point is 00:20:25 At a certain point, I realized I was the only one in America not saving money with Ryan Reynolds. Full FOMO, my friends were bragging about paying only like 15 bucks a month while my old wireless company was charging me enough funds to fund my own independent movie so i finally said it yes to saying no no contracts no hidden fees no nonsense midmobile's entire thing is simple premium wireless starts at just $15 a month you get unlimited talk text high speed data all on the nation's largest 5g network you can keep your phone keep your number and switch instantly using e-sim not only did i switch i stayed because i was getting the same coverage i had before but now for a fraction of the price did the matter can have hundreds of dollars a year back in my pocket back in your pocket you can do it too that's

Starting point is 00:21:11 vacations ps5 games or your entire streaming services bills paid for the whole year so stop letting big wireless drain your bill every month this is literally your sign to switch go to mimmobile dot com slash rejects that's mimmobile.com slash rejects link in the description box and pin comment and because we're talking about finances i should say off from payment of 45 required equipment to 15 month limit time new customer offer for first three months only speed may slow about 35 gigabytes on unlimited plan taxes and fees extra seat Thank you, Minmobile, for converting me. And the thing about the five stakes and an eggplant one is that it's kind of neat in that it has a strong, a plot that affects everyone, and it's an interesting, you know, philosophical debate of, yeah, how do we as a bunch of friends of different means, you know, corral to have the best time together without having to worry about money.

Starting point is 00:21:59 But like the whole Joey, I mean, the whole Chandler subplot of that is, you know, totally detached pretty much from all of this. So, like, that episode has both. I'm very confused. Maybe there's a piece of information we missed. I'm very confused about Phoebe's whole job situation. Because the whole reason why Rachel and Paolo broke up is because Phoebe is a massage therapist. And Apollo, like, touched her while she's getting massage. But then she's working for Chandler and, like, later in the season.

Starting point is 00:22:27 Yeah. And now she's on the side. I was like. And then she's, and we've seen her at Central Perk, but it's not been a very strong idea of, like, this is a source of income for her. yeah you know like what is your situation girl because i feel like massage therapist typically make pretty good money and that's one of those things where yeah i'm like is is the game of it going to be that we're always kind of like what is your deal do you have a different job all the time or or yeah are we going to get a more solid portrait of phoebe as time goes on and we still don't know where she lives right

Starting point is 00:22:56 yeah no he's the only friend who's place we haven't seen i wonder if that's going to be a thing later in the show but uh but yeah this is a very interesting you know it's it's hard to all the like stuff you'd study on a first watch but I do appreciate the kind of interesting you know we're watching one of the most highly beloved and rated sitcoms ever so you know you can't not pick stuff up so curious to yeah continue observing also thank you guys for tuning in to our first six episodes as a time of recording this only the first six have been released and yeah we're getting a lot of love a lot of feedback and we really appreciate it I'm happy that this is is paying off thank you for welcoming us to your central perk Nikki Son Risa, thank you for chiming in. Hey, Aaron and John, I really hope you're still loving this show because I'm enjoying watching you watch it. We are having an absolute blast. In the one where Heckels dies, Chandler has a strong reaction to his death

Starting point is 00:23:53 and reflects a lot on his own future. Have either of you ever had a moment like that where a life event really put your life into perspective? How do you think this will affect Chandler's character moving forward, if at all? RIP Matthew Perry. that is right. That was not very long ago at the time of recording this.

Starting point is 00:24:10 This episode always makes me sad now remembering Matthew and yeah I hadn't think about that. I hadn't thought of it in the moment but that is a really I imagine I don't know comment, you know if this has been your experience but I have to think that people who know the show really well

Starting point is 00:24:26 probably have pulled that moment in particular as kind of a nice little reverie for him because yeah it isn't really sweet and it's one of those things that elevates a show like this where yeah like he has that little aside at the very end where he just observes the room and it's empty and there's like an interesting kind of light about it and he lays the resets the you know broom back up and uh and yeah has this moment for this guy who was always kind

Starting point is 00:24:54 of a thorn in their side but you know who he saw a lot of himself in and uh yeah i thought that was a really lovely thing and again i'm sad that that uh you know actor ostensibly won't be back because he's a very funny character when he would pop up. But I thought that was a really strong, a nice device for him to be like looking through the yearbook. And like they do a lot to be like, ah, you know, like we find some funny stuff in his place. And he leaves them all this junk. And, you know, there's a lot of humor. But yeah, him flipping through the yearbook and being like, hey, this was his life and someone should have this.

Starting point is 00:25:26 Like someone should kind of, you know, commemorate this with a little bit of, you know, empathy and, you know, just carrying on of his. his spirit for a little longer who knew him. And I guess we're the only ones who knew him. Yeah. That's a good question. I think when you, thank you for the question, Nikki. Two things kind of came to mind when you presented that. The first being a couple years ago, someone in my family was diagnosed with Parkinson's

Starting point is 00:25:57 disease. So I, when I found that out, I really did put in perspective, like being grateful for, you know, autonomy your body and you know just utilizing it when you have the ability to and then the second thing which is more recent I think it's public knowledge now was the passing of Angie's father and you know I lived with him for about a year and it's just yeah it's a strange sad and surreal feeling like knowing somebody was with you and then seeing them not be there with you. So yeah, really just kind of puts things perspective and then this is the finality of life and being able to be grateful for what you have and then, you know, preparing for the future

Starting point is 00:26:54 in the event of, you know, things not going according to plan. But yeah, I would say those are the two things that. That really affected me, and that showcased a different perspective within my line of thinking. Yeah, I mean, definitely throughout life, I feel like the older you get and the more, you know, harsh realities you have to contend with, you know, the more this kind of happens. But, yeah, especially lately, just people I know have been experiencing loss. and that even in just observing that and being there you get reflective and I mean I've lost family members in not not super recently but also not that long ago so you know

Starting point is 00:27:43 being there for yeah memoriums and you know reuniting with family that you haven't seen very much like it's interesting because yeah it gets you reflecting on the important things and about making time and about you know doing the effort of connecting to the people that are in your, you know, family or the family that can be found through a group of friends. There was a guy I knew who I was striking up a, you know, there was a guy I knew for many years, you know, in somewhat passing, but who every time I saw him would be like, you know, really jovial and we would always end up talking

Starting point is 00:28:19 and, you know, we had reconnected not long ago in the past couple of years and, you know, had been talking a lot creatively and I was really excited to kind of like jump in and collaborate with him and just you know kind of you know one of those things where you can kind of tell about a person like oh yeah we're supposed to be buds and then yeah very quickly he came down with um a certain type of cancer and in a month he was or or we discovered that he had a certain type of cancer and then you know a month later he was gone and uh you know that's one of those things where he's like a pretty young dude and and any brush with mortality I think just puts you in a reflective place and it's one version of that when it's a grandparent or something it's a whole different version of that when it's like a peer or somebody

Starting point is 00:29:09 kind of on your walk of life and yeah or even just like if you ever like almost get in an accident but don't you know like those things get you reflecting or even just the passage of time like yeah like I definitely have moments

Starting point is 00:29:25 like this, and it can come out of someplace random, you know, just driving past, you know, a human moment somewhere, or it can come out of, you know, like a real big life event. And, I mean, certainly, yeah, like, you know, just seeing Andrew go through what he has been going through a recent, you know, my, my partner lost her best friend, you know, not long ago, and that's been a, yeah, a hard thing to, I mean, you know, certainly, is doing the work and coping, but there's all sorts of times where, yeah, it's still hard and it's still painful. And, yeah, so there's, yeah, I'm not sitting in dour or, you know, kind of melancholic reflection all the time. But there's definitely, I think, a lot of that moment that Chandler has and the way he is struck by that, that I have felt, you know, that life perspective.

Starting point is 00:30:21 and it's hard because, yeah, it's like you want to kind of maintain that vitality and that sense of urgency to make sure that you live richly and express to the people that you care about. And it's hard to maintain that when you're kind of back in a casual spirit or back in, you know, the flow of things. But I don't know if it'll affect, like I don't expect a major difference in the character of Chandler, but I expect this show to do some coming of age for everybody. And I have to imagine that this is one of those, you know, bricks along the road or, you know, up of the wall of, you know, Chandler's growth. And I have to imagine that, yeah, like there will be at least a small smidgen of that spark of like, you know, got to live. Got to do it while you can. Yeah. And I also think it'll inspire him to, you know, eventually realize that he doesn't want to just play the field all the time.

Starting point is 00:31:15 But he does want to settle down. And he does want to find love, consistent love, and kind of put the nitpicking aside. So eventually, you know, I'm very curious to see where these characters go from season one to season 10 and how much they change over the course of those 10 years. Here, here. Thank you, Nikki, for the reflective question. And that's like any good sitcom, you've got to be able to, you know,

Starting point is 00:31:38 get a little dramatic or get a little serious, get a little heartfelt once in a while. So heck yeah. I have one rhythm for everything. I think it's that, because it's, yeah. Anyway, Flev Doran, thank you for chiming in with your question. Good tone shift here. Would you guys taste test your future baby mama's breast milk if they asked? Yes.

Starting point is 00:32:02 Yeah, why not? I do it. I'll try anything once, most things once. Yeah. Come on, Mama, give me that titty milk. What is? yeah i mean i'm not like you know it's not uh it's not a thing of mine so i'm not i'm you know relatively i'm not excited about breast milk as a concept i'm glad for babies uh but yeah i try

Starting point is 00:32:27 why not how'd you feel if you just like surprise squirted in the eye or something i don't know i guess i would laugh yeah it would be it would be a little absurd because it's not within the realm of like very common sillies but you know be pretty silly yeah that's her back, you're just like, you're like being playful and dissers, just like, yeah, I gotcha. You're like, like a clown flower. Yeah, a lapel flower. Just a little, a little cloudier.

Starting point is 00:32:54 Yeah, I'm not, that is the funny thing. It's like, I guess I could see how somebody would be as weirded out as they were, but I'm like, come on, guys, it's not that big a deal. It's like a couple drops, like, because Ross at the end of the episode, like, chugged. He gets like a few swings. Oh, yeah. I'm like, I don't think you needed to go that hard, but well done for, you know, mind over mattering.

Starting point is 00:33:12 making him for all the times he denied himself. Yeah, exactly. He's making him for lost childhood. Jay Rushden. Oh, and yeah, leave all your guys' thoughts. Are you breast milk people? Are we missing out? Should we find a special cafe that makes their lattes

Starting point is 00:33:27 that way? Jay Rushden closing us out. Ever deal with a smelly cat? Random question? Not yet. I've dealt with smelly cat before. Yeah. Here or there. I mean, like, I know one cat. one of my favorite cats in the whole wide world.

Starting point is 00:33:44 He's a very tiny, cute creature and a very, you know, unique personality, you know, a little bit skittish, a little bit dainty. Doesn't come out for a lot of people, but, you know, once you've earned her approval, you know, is

Starting point is 00:33:59 quite talkative and bubbly, but she can wreck a litter box. I'll tell you what. Wow. She can fill up that room. I've dealt with some smelly cat, but it wasn't an animal. Hey, yo.

Starting point is 00:34:11 Hey, hey, I know what they were feeding that cat Or maybe I don't, I don't know That was the problem But yeah, I've dealt with some smelly cats over time Not in any way that was like chronically bad Or where the cat was like sick or something So that's good at least Yeah, no cat suffering like intense indigestion

Starting point is 00:34:40 so that's good but let us know your smelly cat experiences down in the comments below and thank you all for joining us for another block of friends for a feature-length binge any other stray thing

Starting point is 00:35:06 Dudley Moore cut that she gives the way they handled the haircuts I thought was very funny because like in the first episode half like you know two thirds of them have new hair and then there are in the intervening couple of episodes they're like
