Starting point is 00:00:00 Do you ever get hit with a cringy memory of your 13 year old self out of nowhere and suddenly you're panic sweating and laughing at the same time? Don't worry, don't worry, we all get that. It's because being an adolescent is one of the most visceral shared experiences we have as people and we want to talk about it. Join me, Penn Badgley and my two friends, Nava and Sophie on Podcrushed as we interview celebrity guests about the joys and horrors of being a teenager and how those moments made them who they are today.
Starting point is 00:00:27 New episodes of Podcrush are out now, wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to the dough where Cash is queen and we hardly know her, but we're still here figuring her out together because y'all, season two is here. Hosted every week by me, X Maya. Remember me?
Starting point is 00:00:46 I'm gonna be talking to all types of people about their relationship to money. I'm talking to reality stars, entrepreneurs, financial experts, and even some of my own friends. Basically anyone who will get real with me about their dollars, how they make money, how they spend it, and how they save it. Because I'm trying to retire early people.

Is it That was your face when that that was that feeling one that feeling Yeah feeling one or face one feeling I think it's feeling okay because people are always making faces It's hard because it's hard to convey a feeling without making a face, but you're like that's so true that face when I can't think of one. Oh, you know what it is? It's because it's MFW, which is my face. I thought it was my face when. I don't fucking know. Because it's always a face. My feeling.

Starting point is 00:03:22 Yeah, yeah, yeah. I love this. I love it too. I love it. It's old news by now. They're probably out and no, there was, they were just out to dinner snapped by the paparazzi. I had heard about it. They were sharing a single strand of spaghetti a couple months ago and eventually they kissed. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think that'd be a good kiss. You don't think that would be a good kiss to have a single strand of spaghetti in between you? I don't think so. You're crazy, Lauren. Or you don't think that would be a good kiss to have a single shred of spaghetti in between you? You're crazy, Lauren.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Or you don't think Martin Short and Meryl Streep would be a good kiss? No, no, no. That would be a hot kiss. I think they'd do great together. Yeah. They must become crazy. They must be having so much fun.
Starting point is 00:03:58 Do you remember when Martin Short was on Regis and Kathie Lee and Kathie Lee forgot that his wife died? Yeah, he was so classy about it. He was so classy about it. He was so classy about it. He brought her up or something. He's such a very classy. He like asked, how is she doing? How's she doing?
Starting point is 00:04:10 And he was like, or something about she's great, isn't she? I think it was just that first. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Your wife is so great, isn't she? And he kind of went, yeah. And then she pressed it and was like, so how's she doing? And he was like, well, you know, she passed away a year and a half ago. That's really awkward. And that's why how's she doing? And he was like, well, you know, she passed away a year and a half ago. That's really awkward.
Starting point is 00:04:26 And that's why she's only doing commercials now. I love it. Those are really. Yeah, she's doing commercials for like the vegetable pills or whatever. And then she's like, you mean peas? Take your pills. Cracking up snap. You swallow four peas with a glass of water.
Starting point is 00:04:45 That should be good. In the commercial, she's like looking through photo albums and there's one with Hoda, like a picture of Hoda and her having fun. Oh great. I'm like, did you get clearance for that? That is so odd. Hoda, can I use your image in an ad for vegetable pills? I love Hoda.
Starting point is 00:05:02 I love Hoda. I love Hoda too. I love Hoda. We love Hoda. I love Hoda too. I love Hoda. Oh, we love Hoda. I do love Hoda. Hoda, come on, freedom. She's delightful. And then go on Chapo.
Starting point is 00:05:11 What are you doing? If Hoda came on Freedom, it would ruin what we have because we would be so in awe. We would be such frauds immediately because it would be exposed. She's like an actual Conversationalist. Host, conversationalist.
Starting point is 00:05:27 She remembers things that people say. Personality, yeah. She doesn't forget stories. Yeah, I'm sure she doesn't. And repeat them over and over. She's never told a story twice. No. Well, I actually have a ghost story to tell you today.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Oh, holy shit. Boo! I thought you were gonna do a drop, yeah. Light the fire. So I was giving Holly a bath the other night and she goes, mommy, there's a ghost behind you. No, that's not something you wanna hear. Never. From a child.
Starting point is 00:05:55 No, no. In front of you? No problem. And then I was like, I said, what? And it's me. If you're a ghost, you'll be a friendly ghost. If you're me? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:07 Oh, you'd be so helpful. I would try to be. You wouldn't be just sitting there watching this jerk off. I mean, there'd be a little bit of that. I have to kill time. What else is there to do? Sometimes you're floating around and you don't know what you're going to see.
Starting point is 00:06:22 And then you don't just leave immediately. Do you think if you're a ghost, the floating is fun or can you not feel anything? It might feel actually really frustrating. Yeah Like I wish I could just Get down on the ground. Yeah, stop drop and roll. I think it would feel like just not satisfying like it's not a full step. Yeah You wouldn't be able to dance ghost can't dance. I guess they can't They do all the time. Yeah, yeah, they'll just dance is like a crazy person. He loves he dances Like no one's watching in the Broadway production. I bet even more Yeah, you don't have to bet cuz I've seen it
Starting point is 00:06:58 You see I was with Lauren Bobert. Oh, I heard about this. You were like sucking her. Her what? I'm not going to say it. Anyway, so. Sucking her kiss. Oh, thank you, Anthony Kiedis. So I said, what?
Starting point is 00:07:16 And then she was like, there's a ghost behind you. I was like, what? Like I like truly, I looked around and I was like, what? And I just was like. I would be so terrified to turn around. I did. I turned around dripping wet girl with hair. I asked her again, what? And she said it again. I asked her again, what? I'll put it to you again. What? And then I looked around slowly and slowly I turned. There was a ghost shaped soap on my shelf.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Oh, soap on a rope. It's been there for a year and a half. I got it for Halloween. Like, yeah, of course. Oh, you get out with your Halloween soaps. Yeah, sure. So yeah, you go around trick or treating, people put soap in your bag.
Starting point is 00:08:07 I just don't even think about it anymore, but it was her first time noticing it. And then I was like, oh yeah, and I was so happy I just gave it to her and then now it's in the tub. But I was like, yeah. And now it's just a circle. And all its ghost edges sanded off. I was just so relieved that there was some physical thing
Starting point is 00:08:24 that looked like a ghost so that I did not have to feel scared in my own home. Absolutely. You should put up ghosts all around the house so that she does it to Mike. Well, his birthday card, she drew ghosts in it. Oh, she likes ghosts. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:37 I asked Lauren yesterday, and I'm so glad I asked her. To marry you? Yeah. And he's so glad. On Mike's birthday? He's so glad he asked me because I said yes. And he always wondered. And then I said, that's all I needed to know.
Starting point is 00:08:53 I'm not gonna do it. I just want to know. Will you marry me? If I would. I wasn't asking, are you going? Yeah. Yeah. I asked Lauren, what did Holly think about Mike's birthday?
Starting point is 00:09:02 Because it was Mike's birthday yesterday. Yeah. And I'm so glad I asked. Yeah.? Because it was Mike's birthday yesterday. And I'm so glad I asked. Yeah, she thought it was her birthday all day. She also says when her birthday is, but she was like, it's my birthday. At what point did she learn what a birthday, because we were talking about this the other day.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Was it the second birthday? Did she realize what it was? No, it was really from going to parties. So it's kind of like the more part, I mean, it was definitely after, I feel like maybe it was after two. Yeah. I learned from parties. And like we went to, had been to enough birthday parties
Starting point is 00:09:32 that like. I learned from parties. That's what I just said. She had, then they're singing at school kind of regularly. Like it's kind of always someone's birthday. It feels like. Isn't that the fucking truth, baby? It is always someone's birthday. It's almost like every day always someone's birthday. It feels like. Isn't that the fucking truth, baby? It is always somebody's birthday. God damn it.
Starting point is 00:09:46 It's almost like every day is somebody's birthday. Every weekend, like both days, I have to go to someone's birthday. Every weekend is somebody's birthday for two days. The more she hears the song. What song? It goes like this. Happy.
Starting point is 00:10:07 Now we went to two the other day. One was a fairy, like one was fairies in the park. It was a fairy quest. It was all the time. And it was. How old was the birthday child? Six. Okay. And so how old was the birthday child?
Starting point is 00:10:19 How old was the birthday child? How old was the birthday child? This seems about six years old. But so, I mean, just kind of like watched, but it was, it was, I think, you know, they, the hosts got their money's worth, I will say, but I think it was a little long for a, it was an hour, like they,
Starting point is 00:10:41 they really wanted to make sure they got to that hour. And I kind of feel like the kids were like, this could have been 20 minutes. Well, a lot of improv. Yeah, it's tough. The kids, let's get over 20 minutes. Well, when we sang happy birthday to Mike last night, she went, it's daddy's birthday. We've been saying it all day. You drew on a card. Yeah. Remember how I kept telling you, go say happy birthday to him.
Starting point is 00:11:03 Ghosts say happy birthday. Ghosts say happy birthday! Ghosts say happy birthday to him! Um, but anyway, it was super cute. It might be because I make up the titles. This is Lauren's bailiwick now. Wait, did that happen? That you became the official title of the group? Yes, she's the official titleist of Freedom.
Starting point is 00:11:22 Since our transfer. When did that happen? She has responsibilities now. Since we left, since our transfer. When did that happen? She has responsibilities since we left, since we left, since we've been gone. When was this discussed? I suppose Scott begged me to do it because he said he was too afraid.
Starting point is 00:11:34 I doubt that. I highly know he begged me to because he was afraid to remember to single thing. We've done. That's not true. Oh, that's not true. He was really afraid to express his creativity
Starting point is 00:11:46 by making up the titles and writing the summaries that he begged me to do it. And he said, you will not receive compensation. Lauren, please. Scott, I want you to listen to a little song called Roar by Katy Perry, because I think it will help you discover some self-confidence. OK, I'll try to do that.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Can you put it on? Yeah, I'll try. Kidz Bop version? Okay, roar Kidz Bop. I wanna say this to the listener. Never doubt our commitment to Kidz Bop. First we have an ad for something called Kugali? No, from the makers of Kugali?
Starting point is 00:12:23 Don't help them. Here, what do you think so far? do you feel I don't feel confident yet Yeah, that's how I feel Yeah, that's how I feel would you do something with a bow and make a mess? Yeah Did that happen to you I guess well, I don't remember not remembering it Did you fall for everything this song stupid is just describing how I'm feeling right now Okay, nope Okay, forget it.
Starting point is 00:13:05 This song's so... No, stop! I know, he'll never have confidence. I'm never gonna have confidence. No, we'll never hear him roar! What if Katy Perry was just like, and that's it. I used to be like this, and now I still do. I'm a loser.
Starting point is 00:13:18 Bye! I watched a clip from American Idol Reel to recap, which I don't watch these days. But... Someone sent you a clip. No, no, the Instagram. You found a clip. Somebody shared a clip and I thought, I'll click that.
Starting point is 00:13:31 Yeah, for old time's sake. To see someone sing well, sure. Yeah, why wouldn't I? It was moving. Are you okay? It was amazing. It was beautiful. What song was it? And then they all go, that might be the Wex winner. The Wex winner? The Wex go, that might be the wax winner.
Starting point is 00:13:45 The wax winner? The next winner. That might be the wax winner. That might be the next winner. They all said, that might be the wax winner. The song she sang was a Billie Eilish song called The One From Barbie. The One From Barbie.
Starting point is 00:13:59 What was I made for? And she played piano. Did she sing like this? No, she just sang well. What was I made for? Yeah. I do, the worst clip on Instagram, like the worst audio clip that people use a lot,
Starting point is 00:14:14 like, I think, it's like, I think I like this little life. Or something. Yeah, I've only seen people making fun of it. I've seen real ones. It's like people holding their toddler and like doing something that's like... And that's from an actual song? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Should we look it up? Okay, okay, okay. I don't know. I don't know. Let me at least handcuff. Look, look. It's someone called Cordelia. Let's hear it.
Starting point is 00:14:40 From Buffy the Vampire Slayer? Cordy? Oh wait, here we go. I'm not hearing what you're talking about. You can't hear the words? I can't. Is there a ghost in this song? They're just repeating them over and over again.
Starting point is 00:14:58 What? You can't hear them. I think I like it. I thought it was, oh no, that was good. Honestly, I wasn't looking and I honestly thought that was the real vocal. Wait, let it play. We have to. What do you have me describe?
Starting point is 00:15:09 Describe. With light. With light. We'll get into the part where she says that. No, I think we're gonna sing it. If you can see the lyrics then just. Why does everyone sing like this now? Wish light. I know, that's what you're saying. It's like. I can't see the lyrics, I'm just... Why does everyone sing like this now? Wish like...
Starting point is 00:15:26 I know what you're saying! Wish why we were, why we do it. Wow, why are you pointing at me? Stop fucking pointing at me! It is like that now. Everyone's like, I wanted to be so tame. I turned around,
Starting point is 00:15:42 you broke my heart. Hahahaha! I guess everyone in the 40s sing like, we've moved past the idea that everyone should sing the same tone. Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. Well, I'm sure I've talked about this, but I always wonder how people find their singing voice in that way. It's like where you're like, Oh, that person's a successful
Starting point is 00:16:07 singer, but they sound nothing like that. They talk to us like that. They do. They're like doing almost like an accent. When did that get put on? I don't know. You don't know. No. Jim neighbors. The most classic example of voice don't match singing. Because he talk like this, Sarge, what are you going to do? And then he would sing like this. Let the music play. Don't get away.
Starting point is 00:16:36 Sounds really good. What's that song? Let the music play. Shannon. Is that who sang that song? Yeah. Let it play! Okay. Okay, we would like to. I want to hear the part of those songs. No! I want you to fucking hear the parts!
Starting point is 00:16:51 I already closed it, I don't give two shits. I think I like this little life. I think I like this little life. I think I like this little life. That's my phrase if I ever have to do an Irish accent again. There you go. I think I like this little life. That's my phrase if I ever have to do an Irish accent again. There you go. I think I like this little life. The eyes of Vorge.
Starting point is 00:17:10 God. Stop it. Shrek. Shrek. I Shrek. Donkey. She's never gonna say it. Can I say this?
Starting point is 00:17:18 I think Shrek sucks. Okay. I think he sucks. You don't like as a person? I'm not a person. I'm a dog. I'm a dog. I'm a dog. I'm a dog. I'm a dog. I Shrek. Donkey. She's never gonna say it. Can I say this? I think Shrek sucks.
Starting point is 00:17:26 Okay. I think he sucks. You don't like as a person? I don't think he fucks. I mean as an ogre. No, he's great at being an ogre. But I do think he's not funny. He wasn't even like always an ogre. So it's kind of interesting.
Starting point is 00:17:38 It's kind of one of those things like you should try things. Shrek is nice. I don't give a shit. He's a nice person. You know what? Shrek actually holds up. He's a nice person. You know what, Shrek actually holds up. He's a tryhard and I hate him. Shrek actually holds up. And just cause you're dressed like him today.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Yeah. So I'm wearing a sweater? You have a plaid hat on. Wait, does he wear a plaid hat? Nobody's Scottish. He should. You just have a Shrek air about you. Oh no, this is bad news for me.
Starting point is 00:18:04 I'm disturbed here. You know that they did the whole thing with Chris Farley? Yes, I did. Oh, the whole, I didn't know it you. Oh no, this is bad news for me. I'm disturbed to hear this. You know that they did the whole thing with Chris Farley? Yes, I did. Oh, the whole, I didn't know it was the whole thing. The whole thing, the whole thing, the whole thing. And then they were like, nah, let's throw it away. No, he passed.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Yes. I don't think they did the whole thing. They did like three quarters of it. That much? You're just guessing. Why didn't they just go ahead and- She said it so confidently. Because they weren't done.
Starting point is 00:18:24 And they had to start over. And if they want to do four of them, they're going to need somebody else. Why didn't they get somebody who could do a Chris Farley voice? I don't know. I would like to hear the difference down by the river. That's how you did. Shrek. Oh, God. Donkey. What are you looking up?
Starting point is 00:18:43 You're looking at how much he did about 85% eat my shit. Well, you said three quarters. I said 75. And you said, I'm, you're making that up. There's no way. How come they wouldn't just, you didn't get it right. Well, I was close. Does it remember? I said he probably did 85%. No, no. You did. Don't lie to us, Paul.
Starting point is 00:19:03 You're under oath. He did about 85%. About 85%. About. So 84% probably. We don't know. We can't get the exact facts and figures. We won't know. Isn't that weird? We won't know until we go to heaven. I know.
Starting point is 00:19:17 And then it's the first thing they tell you. We'll just see all the sessions. Chris Farley did 86% of Shrek. I think there was an S&L sketch that was all about that, which I found very fascinating. About him doing Shrek? It was like someone dying and then St. Peter taking them through. Oh, it was Dana Carvey and Kevin Nealon? Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:32 What's the eighth most disgusting thing? That was a very atypical sketch because it was very quiet, but it was really funny. It was like, how many bugs have I swallowed in my life or something like that? Yeah. He's like, what's the grossest thing I ever ate? And he's like, how many bugs have I swallowed in my life or something like that? He's like, what's the grossest thing I ever ate? And he's like, I can't tell you that. You'll lose your mind. He's like, okay, what's the thousandth and one grossest thing?
Starting point is 00:19:53 Right. Yeah, it was really, was it funny? Yeah, it was good. Yeah, it was funny. It was really funny. Restrained performance by Carvey, the like of which we have rarely seen. They're great.
Starting point is 00:20:05 Lauren, if you could, if you could star as either Hans or Franz, which one would you star? Oh my God, I hate this question. Oh, wow. So basically I think of them as being the same. Oh, come on. What?
Starting point is 00:20:20 What are you talking about? Hans and Franz are the same? One is Hans and one is Franz. I would be Hans. The taller one. Yeah, that seems right. Yeah. Just based on odds, I'm sure whoever I'd be paired with
Starting point is 00:20:35 probably be shorter than me. You're either a Hans or a Franz. Which one are you? I'm more of a Franz, I think. Wow. I'm definitely a Hans. Yeah, I can see that. I'm giving Hans right now?
Starting point is 00:20:44 It's Hans season. It's giving Hans. We have to take a I'm definitely a Hans. Yeah, I can see that. I'm giving Hans right now? It's Hans season. It's giving Hans. Mm-hmm. We have to take a break speaking of giving Hans. Wow. So bye. But when we come back, we'll have an exciting new story to tell you.
Starting point is 00:20:54 Why would you say that? Let's come up with one. Oh no, we gotta go live some life. Okay, we'll be back in a week. Bye. Or a frames. Oh, let's talk about them. What are they? First of all, what are, if you've been living in the center of the earth with all the magma and, you know, and the underground mole people, maybe you don't know what an aura frame is, but look, what are they? They're beautiful wifi connected digital picture frames that allow you from afar to share and display unlimited photos.
Starting point is 00:21:34 You just through the app, you send the Aura frame, any photo you want. And it comes up on the rotation. I love them. This is, we've talked about them on the show. This is the greatest invention. Maybe GPS is up there with great inventions in the modern era, but the Aura frame is the greatest invention.
Starting point is 00:21:54 The quality of the pictures, unreal. I love the algorithm that puts two photos together that sort of match. It's always funny to go like, oh, that one went with that one. I love how simple it is to set up. It's such a nice way to rotate through really beautiful memories.
Starting point is 00:22:09 It's super easy to upload and share photos via the Aura app. And if you're giving Aura as a gift, you can even personalize the frame with preloaded photos and memories from grandmothers to new mothers, aunts, even the friends in your life.
Starting point is 00:22:26 Every mom will love being gifted an Aura frame this Mother's Day named the best digital photo frame by Wirecutter and selected as one of Oprah's favorite things. Trademarked Aura frames are guaranteed to bring joy to moms of all ages. You know what age, what, what ages could a mom possibly be? You know, 130? Yeah, she'll love it. Right now, Aura has a great deal for Mother's Day. Listeners can save on the perfect gift

Starting point is 00:23:14 Oh yeah, I was gonna say chicken butt. Then I have two things. Oh, okay. What's the first one? Chicken butt. First one, chicken butt. Okay, got it. Second one is this show is sponsored by BetterHelp. You're kidding me.
Starting point is 00:23:24 No, I wouldn't joke about it. That's so cool. Well, this is interesting because I was wanting to ask our listeners, how is your social battery doing these days? Are you feeling drained or a little burnt out? Well, Lauren, it's so weird that you would ask our listeners that because I was going to say it can be easy to ignore
Starting point is 00:23:37 our social battery and spread ourselves thin. It's really important to step back and figure out the right amount of socializing for us. That's weird because what I was going to say was therapy can give you the self-awareness to build a social life that doesn't drain your battery. Well, that's really crazy because I was going to say a good therapist shows you how to set boundaries, strengthening that muscle so you're much less likely to agree to things you maybe don't have the energy for.
Starting point is 00:24:04 That's so odd because what I was going gonna say next kind of relates to what you were saying, which is if you're thinking of starting therapy, give BetterHelp a try. It is super convenient, flexible, and fits right into your schedule. Are you ready to get goosebumps? Okay. Because... R.L. Stein time. I was gonna say you can do it all from the comfort of your own home.

Oh, that's how you spell help Hi there, it's Julia Louis Dreyfus You may know me from my podcast called wiser than me where I talk to older women and get their wisdom from the front lines Of life after season one aired, I was amazed by how many people told me our show made them look forward to getting older. Which is why I'm here to talk about season two of the show. Sally Field, Billie Jean Kane, Beverly Johnson, Ina Garten, Bonnie Rae, just to name a few, and of course my 90-year-old mom, Judy. All hail old women. Wiser Than Me Season Two is out now from Lemonade Media.
Starting point is 00:25:29 And we're back. Zadidu-dodo. Zadidu-dodo. Zadidu-dodo. Zadidu-dodo. You know how last week or the week before we were talking about our friend, Eggo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Yeah. And this reminded me. We our friend, Eggo. Yeah. And this reminded me- We got a lot of letters. Yeah, oh my gosh. Just loving it. Just saying like, thanks for mentioning her. Please talk about her more. That was fun. But no, I sent her this the other day
Starting point is 00:25:55 and it reminded me of this thing we read about you that was actually right on the money. Oh my God, I know that guy predicted my pregnancy. Yeah. Which, remember we read like a weird article that was like- Like an money. Oh my God, I know that guy predicted my pregnancy. Yeah. Which, remember we read like a weird article that was like translated to like- No, I think it was like an AI article maybe. I don't know what it was.
Starting point is 00:26:12 But maybe it was before AI. Oh, people ask this about Lauren Lapfus. Yeah, what is her pregnancy? Okay, so here's one. And they said I was gonna have a baby in 2023. And I was like, no. Which I didn't do, but I mean, I did get pregnant. Yeah, here's one.
Starting point is 00:26:24 Is Egowodim pregnant? A comprehensive exploration of clues and fans eager anticipation of the SNL stars personal joyous news. That is so psychotic. Is Eggo Wodim pregnant? Eggo Wodim born in Baltimore, Maryland. Oh, so nice of you. Is a notable figure in the, Maryland. Oh, so nice of you. When you walk through the garden.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Is a notable figure in the entertainment world. With her Nigerian background, she brings a rich cultural mix to her work. So true. Wodum completed her studies at the University of Southern California, earning a degree in biology and showcasing her diverse skills.
Starting point is 00:26:59 Then a lot of like blah, blah, blah about her career. All right, and then after the career, no, Ego Wodum is not having a baby. Why did you write the article? like blah, blah, blah about her career. All right, and then after the career, no, Ego Wodim is not having a baby. Oh. Why did you write the article? She hasn't said anything about being pregnant, so it's not clear if she's going to have a baby or not.
Starting point is 00:27:15 Yeah, write about any, you could literally say about anything at all. Here's why. The talk about Ego Wodim being pregnant started when she shared photos on her Instagram. People started talking. Where she wasn't pregnant. People started talking. Where she wasn't pregnant.
Starting point is 00:27:26 People started talking and guessing about it because of these pictures of Bowen Yang's husband. What? They're saying that she's with Bowen Yang. Oh, my God. Since Wodim hasn't officially said anything about being pregnant, those rumors are just guesses based on how people interpret the photos. Cool. And then they show this picture of her and Bowen. I do think like 90% of the internet should be deleted. So if I'm reading this correctly,
Starting point is 00:27:50 so because of pictures of Bowen Yang's husband, people are asking if Eggo is pregnant. No, they think he's her husband. They show this picture of her and Bowen together. That they're in love. Eggo Wodum is sharing her love story with her future husband, Bowen Yang. Oh, her future husband.
Starting point is 00:28:04 They're not just dating, they are engaged. The couple even posted pictures on their social media showing off their engagement rings. No, they didn't. Wait, did they? They have been a couple for a long time, supporting each other every step of the way. I do think they joked that.
Starting point is 00:28:16 It seems like they might be planning to get married soon and their friends and fans are excited to hear more about it. Yeah, that's true. I'm excited to hear more. I'm thrilled. There's way more. I don more about it. Yeah, that's true. I'm excited to hear more. I'm thrilled. There's way more. I don't need it. In case you're wondering.
Starting point is 00:28:29 You need a little more. Okay, fine. Do two more. Two more? Two more what? Sentences or words? Pages. Words.
Starting point is 00:28:35 Words, words, words. Um, Eggo and Bowen are an interracial couple as mentioned in her hashtag. In one picture, they are sitting on a couch holding hands. Bowen has a paper bracelet with the date 2-3-21 written on it in blue letters. The photo was a fun moment after Bowen. 2-3-21 written on it in blue letters. What could it mean? Can you put that together? 2-3-21 written in blue letters.
Starting point is 00:29:02 Well, it's the way the numbers are spelled out. T-W-O. Oh, here's how it all started. The photo was a fun moment after Bowen jokingly proposed to her on SNL by going down on one knee. Bowen also shared a picture saying, announcements, I'm straight now, this is my girlfriend, alongside a photo of them holding hands. And the person writing this was like, that's all true.
Starting point is 00:29:29 That's great. Yeah. Anyway, great. Congrats. I love journalism. But, but the one that we read about you was actually true. Everything they said was true. Yeah. Yeah. So some hits. You are married to husband and my castle. Yeah. So I think that this must be true. I sent it to Ego and she just sent a gift of her nervously pulling her collar going ehhh. So it might be true. She self-gifted? Yeah. It's a power move. I like to do that. It was her pulling her collar? I think she was pulling someone else's collar actually. She was pulling someone else's collar. Someone was nervous near her and he couldn't pull their collar
Starting point is 00:30:08 So she's always helpful. She kindly did it for them. Yeah Would you mind pulling this death kindly stopped for me? You're writing a poem. I was remembering a book. Did you have you ever written a poem? Oh my god. Yeah, I've wrote oh I wrote poems and song lyrics when I was in high school. Really? Yes. You had to. I had to. No one had to.
Starting point is 00:30:30 You compelled. And I cannot imagine, I still have the notebook. I would be- It's notebook two, Paul's lyrics. I think I would cringe to death if I were to read them. Can you bring them next week or the week after? I can't promise anything. I can't promise anything. I can't promise anything.
Starting point is 00:30:47 No, my poem was, one of my poems was published in a, in a collection of student poetry across America. Across America. Okay, okay. So when you read student poetry, do you give it like more of a pass? You have to. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:03 That's all about, I don't remember which poem it was though. My favorite student poem, no more pencils, no more books. No more. I wrote a poem about the glass menagerie or like inspired by the glass menagerie. Wow. Like fanfic. I don't know. I don't know if it was an English assignment or if I just showed it to my English teacher, but she loved it. And she used it as an example for years to come. She loved it.
Starting point is 00:31:24 Wow. When did she stop? When was she like, boy, the shelf life on this? She loved it and she used it as an example for years to come, she loved it. Wow. When did she stop? When was she like, boy the shelf life on this is not. I only know about it happening for like one to two years. So I really don't know. Who's one to two years? One to two years.
Starting point is 00:31:35 She's this woman who will do anything you want. For two years. For two years. And then she's done. It cuts you off. It's a contract and it's a docu-sign and it's like a whole thing. I love DocuSign.
Starting point is 00:31:46 God, DocuSign is one of the best things ever. It's really great. You can do it from your phone now. It feels like it's gotten better. What are some of the best, some of the best inventions? DocuSign. Oh my God, Adobe Acrobat. Yes.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Final draft, will they make you buy a new one any time someone else has a new one? They're so hyped on this new final draft. Why do they make you buy it every time? You can't update the app or the software. It's actually criminal. Yeah, it's criminal. So if I'm working with a friend who is...
Starting point is 00:32:18 No, it should still work for you, the one that you bought. You can't collab unless you have the exact same... You mean all the new features on the new version? You literally can't sync up. You cannot have the person collab on there with you. You used to be able to before. It's, I don't think, you always have had to have the same exact model.
Starting point is 00:32:35 And then you have to buy another one and it's like hundreds of dollars. That's bullshit. It's bullshit. It's like Microsoft Word. How much do you make on your screenplay? Is it like a million? Three million. It's like Microsoft Word. How much do you make on your screenplay? Is it like a million? Three million.
Starting point is 00:32:45 It's a great investment. I got into it with whoever's in charge of the dictionary app. This was the... You got into it with them? Yeah, the dictionary app's gotten worse. Can you look up the word for fucking cunt and that's you, bitch.
Starting point is 00:33:02 Hey, are you talking to Paul? Oh my God, Lauren. Lauren is in a mood today. That was Lauren. I always think about this kid who listens to us now and I'm like, I gotta bleep that. Kid, this is another thing we talked about in front of me. There's kids who listen to this show. Hey kids, turn this shit off.
Starting point is 00:33:25 It's not for you. If you're a kid listening to this, let me tell you about something called Toffee Fae, okay? This was a candy that was too good for kids. I don't know what this is. So that's basically a Three in a Minute Toffee Fae. It's a little round hazelnut cup. I think I'm allergic to hazelnut.
Starting point is 00:33:42 With a little chocolate disc on the top. How little? How disc? New phone, who disc? Lately I've been getting itchy mouth when I eat hazelnut. Ew. So I'm like, I think I'm out. Gross. I can't do it anymore. So for that reason, I'm out. In that situation, do you like scratch your mouth? I have my dog scratch my mouth. Yeah, that makes sense. That makes sense. because they're great at it. What were you gonna say? Well, to first finish about this candy, Toffee Fae, their ad campaign was,
Starting point is 00:34:11 Toffee Fae, it's too good for kids. Toffee Fae is too good for kids. And you know what? It was because it was a more adult kind of candy. Yeah, I remember certain candies that parents used to like,, I remember certain candies that, that parents used to like that I would just be like, uh, that's, it's too specific. Was it always just like coffee?
Starting point is 00:34:32 Flavors. This was not coffee or toffee. It was not coffee flavored. Okay. It's toffee flavored. But, but as a kid, did you like toffee? Yeah. Is it supposed to be like pig Latin? Was it sweet? I liked it. Toffee, Fay. What would supposed to be like pig Latin? Was it sweet? I liked it. Hmm. Toffee-Fey. What would that be? Fae-toffee. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:49 Foo-toffee. So as a kid though, did it make you want to eat it? Of course it did! And no one- The forbidden fruit? No one ever let you? No. Shopkeepers would say, uh-uh.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Really? Let me see your ID, son. You know what I always thought was the grossest sparkling water. I still don't like sparkling water. I don't believe my thirst to be slaked. I have Googled it and it does quench your thirst. I know, but it doesn't feel like I don't. Hydration is different than quenching your thirst.
Starting point is 00:35:23 No, but it is hydrating. Yeah. That's, that's what I'm saying. Huh? But it's doing that. It may hydrate you, but it's not quenching your thirst. Yeah, not like... It's like, I'm gargling with salt.
Starting point is 00:35:32 What quenches your thirst? What's the thirst quenching? No, but the brand of soda. The thirst quencher? You know, they'd be like, it's... Yeah, that is something. Quest your thirst. Quest your thirst.
Starting point is 00:35:44 The thirst quencher is... Wasn't that an iced tea? Was it Fanta? Gatorade. Gatorade, the classic thirst quencher. And you know what, that would quench it. Yeah, that quenches and hydrates. Gatorade, they know what they're doing.
Starting point is 00:35:57 And this is not an ad. We gotta talk. We're so late on this, but the Reese Atisa TikTok, 52 part TikTokic toc. I don't know what this is. I watched the whole thing. So it's about this woman. It's a woman talking to the camera on tic toc.
Starting point is 00:36:11 You watched one part a week? She made 52 parts. I literally watched them all within two days and I did start doing double speed because I was like, I can't. She did not do it. It was eight hours. It was more than eight hours.
Starting point is 00:36:20 This is it. It's a tic toc series this woman made about her path, her husband, ex-husband who was a pathological liar. It's called, Who the fuck did I marry? And so she's like, who the fuck did I marry part seven? So, okay. So, and she's like telling you this whole story. And-
Starting point is 00:36:35 In chronological order. In really excruciating detail. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like there's like, and then we woke up and then we went to the store. It's like, you know, you're literally like- But the details are- Oh no, they're good.
Starting point is 00:36:44 Yeah. And then by the end, there's just one part that I just thought of from what you said, where shit starts. He's a pathological liar. He, yeah, he lies about everything. He said Gatorade doesn't throok, quench your thirst. He doesn't, he doesn't throok, quench. And he, he, he has this like sort of, I don't know what happens to him, he hurts his knee and he can't get out of bed
Starting point is 00:37:08 and he's losing weight rapidly. It's a very odd sort of downfall. I wish I had this, whatever it is. Yeah, don't get out of bed and hammer it. Ow! Don't break your knee. And then she finally goes into the room. And lose weight.
Starting point is 00:37:23 I won't give away anything about it that's happening around that in case people do care. It's also been months probably since this has happened. But she finds that he's been pissing in Gatorade Powerade bottles. He's only drinking Powerade. He's not eating food and he's peeing in it. I was not in the room when Jenny was listening. And then he has since released his own sort of how-to Viet bottle. And everyone's like, why are you putting your face on camera?
Starting point is 00:37:46 I don't know who you are. Because she doesn't use his name. She gives him a pseudonym. Right. I bet the 100 people who knew that he was married to her are like, you pee in bottles? Yeah, and so he has to come out. He made up a whole thing that she cheated on him,
Starting point is 00:37:59 but he's such a liar. That's their one takeaway. And then his ex-wife also spoke untitled. No, he was the cheater. Oh, but I thought you said he. One takeaway and then his ex-wife also spoke on TikTok. No, he was the cheater. Oh, but I thought you said he. No, he said he caught her cheating. That's why their relationship ended.
Starting point is 00:38:12 And she's like, you're a liar. No, this wasn't said in front of me. The lies are out of this world though. Do you know pathological liars? I've supposedly, but. Yeah. I think that I have, yeah. I have, but I don't.
Starting point is 00:38:24 Oh no, I knew a guy. I knew a I have yeah, I have but I don't know I knew that were lying. I knew a guy that just he refused to admit he had all these stories that If you asked any follow-up question, he didn't have an answer for it and was like just admit this is not right Yeah, that's a way. It's just you and me here What is the peeing in bottles thing? Like, you know how Tina Fey talks about like comedy writers all peeing bottles I think that's specific to her friends? I really have never heard of people doing that. I heard that about a beloved SNL cast member
Starting point is 00:38:51 who used to piss in jars and leave it in the office, and then the assistant would have to take that off. So it's just an SNL thing because they all are... Because they're all psychotic people. They're all psychotic and they're meant to... They also are, like, compelled to stay there all night for some reason. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:07 No, it's like a cult mentality led by a weirdo. I'm trying to think if I've ever pissed in anything other than a toilet. What about a mouth? Jesus, Lord. God, I'm sick. I guess a shower. Oh, Lord. Lord, it's cracking up. I guess a shower. I guess a shower.
Starting point is 00:39:29 You never, you never pissed outside? Oh, I pissed outside. Yeah. Aren't you a guy? So outside a toilet. It's one of the burs. I've pissed outside and never, oh my God, I was always, I didn't think I've had to pee outside like for various reasons.
Starting point is 00:39:44 I must have pissed in one bottle on a road trip. I'm sure you did. You must have. I was always, I think I've had to pee outside like for various reasons. I must have pissed in one bottle on a road trip. I'm sure you did. You must have. I must have. And then a diaper when I was really young, like one day old to maybe about three or so. Like you just did it the other day
Starting point is 00:39:56 just to see what it was like. I guess in the womb. I don't know what I was doing in there. I guess my piss is all over the place. Honestly, that time for me is like very hazy. Yeah, I don't remember much of it. Yeah. What is your early, do you have an earliest memory?
Starting point is 00:40:10 And then I want to get back to dictionary.com. I remember coming out of the womb and being like, it's bright, it's bright in here. Let me back in. And then there were six more weeks to winter. You wanted to go back in? Yeah, Lauren. Tell us about dictionary.com. You got into it.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Yeah. So what'd you do about that? So this was, I'm trying to remember what, what was it was not the Oxford. It was, it was the dictionary app and I really loved it. No dictionary.com slash slash the source comm has gotten terrible now, and if they're a sponsor, I apologize has gotten terrible What do you know? It's like the source.com you still miss every there's like half of the words. It's just the shrug emoji There's like we're not sure you figured out try to use it in context No now they only they only list a few and they're like, do you want to read more? Yeah. This was the American Heritage Dictionary, something like that. It was a great dictionary heritage foundation. And then they great they updated it and then they made they tried to charge you again for it.
Starting point is 00:41:21 Charge again. Oh, it was an app that you bought. Yeah. And they're like, hey, buy it again. Yeah, it's like, well, if the physical dictionary was updated, you'd have to buy it again. I'm like, yeah, but this isn't that. But I wouldn't have to. You're making people- I would keep my old one. They were charging full price for it.
Starting point is 00:41:36 Right. No, no. How much does the app- Because they added like Riz or whatever. Is it like, is it like Microsoft Word, now you have to have a subscription? Holy fuck, man, Microsoft Word? I'm gonna say this on Mike. Oh man.
Starting point is 00:41:51 Remember who I am when I go to use your app. Listen, Microsoft Word. Stop forgetting me and ask me if I wanna sign up for a plan. $160. For how long? For a year? I don't know. That's too much for Microsoft
Starting point is 00:42:07 Or you can get it for a one-time free trial for a month and get it for a one-time fee of $80 I don't know. There's there's different I know facts and figures out here, but I just think it should be free with your phone or computer I think the same way it used to be wasn't it free? To buy it like a pack pages Pages is like Microsoft Office. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where you get all those five. Yes, pages.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Pages isn't. I'll say it eight times. But pages isn't Word. It doesn't have all the features. Well, you love the features so much, pay for them. I don't want it at all. I use Google Word. Do you wish that you had Microsoft,
Starting point is 00:42:41 but all the things were in a different place? Yeah. Get pages. Pages is just like nothing. Pages is like, Pages is fine. And it converts to word. It do's. Pages is dirt on the bottom of the shoe. So you got into it and what happened?
Starting point is 00:43:01 And the guy was like, well, all right. Who's the guy? I had to talk to a guy. You had to talk to an actual person? Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah. Was he like a little guy in glasses who was like the face of the dictionary? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:13 Point Dexter looking motherfuckin'. Exactly. I stood over and was like, uh, I think you're giving it to me for free. And he's like, all right. But yeah, the guy admitted. He admitted it. He admitted it? Oh my God.. But yeah, the guy admitted. He admitted it? Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:43:26 Oh my God, the guy admitted that. Yeah, I guess that you have a point that. It's stupid. You know, we didn't print a copy of the dictionary. Then now you have to buy a new version. And then eventually it stopped working. They were like, no, we're cracking down on these people. Really?
Starting point is 00:43:44 Yeah. So many things. I think that you should, when you're born, you should pay a bunch of money and then you get everything for free the rest of your life. That makes sense to me. Yeah. How much? Like considering that all the stuff you'll have to pay for, you know, with inflation or buy inflation rather, like $3 million. So everybody just has a one time.
Starting point is 00:44:10 One time $3 million fee. And then you get food, shelter, but it's a good house or what? Like, yeah. You get everything. Yeah. And everyone's house is exactly the same. And everyone gets the same amount of toilet paper. This sucks.
Starting point is 00:44:23 Maybe I'm a communist. Not good at it. Everyone gets the same amount of toilet paper. This sucks. Maybe I'm a communist. And not good at it. Everyone gets the same amount of toilet paper for your life. That can't be good. Yeah. Why did you just say this sucks in the middle of? He didn't even like what you were talking about. Oh, I thought you were looking at something and you were saying, this sucks.
Starting point is 00:44:40 No, I was trying to find the dictionary app but it's not there anymore. So they just erased it. They took it from you. I think they went out of business. No, I'm looking in the store. They went out of business, I guess. Which dictionary went out of business?
Starting point is 00:44:53 The American heritage. I thought it was American heritage. I don't understand why that costs any money. A dictionary dictionary app. I can Google any word I want. Well, that's true. Can you? That's true. I like I like having the app. Try to Google one right now. Okay. But liquor.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Can't find that in the dictionary. Okay. Who is Bill Butlicker? And who is he? He's a character voiced by Jim Halpert during the episode of Customer Survey on The Office. I guess I could have written that episode. This is our crossover episode, by the way, with Office Lady. Wait, on a network sitcom, they had a character named Bill Butlicker?
Starting point is 00:45:33 Yes. It's like a character Jim Halpert was doing. No, he was calling on the phone going like, I think it's funny. Well, of course. Television is funny. Filthy. All right, we have to take a break.
Starting point is 00:45:46 Hey everyone, it's David Duchovny. Do you ever feel like a failure? Trust me, I get it. Hell, I've spent my whole life almost feeling like a failure.

What did we talk about this on this show that I don't know Gene Siskel had a problem with one of his problems with the movie the Lord of the Flies
Starting point is 00:50:15 Was that the book the Lord of the Flies didn't exist in the movie What? So everything is like that so that it like, I think the idea was that. The book exists in the book? Maybe it was a yeah. The kids are constantly like, this is like Lord of the Flies. Because maybe it was a version. It was a modern version.
Starting point is 00:50:36 It might have been a modern version. And he for some reason was like, how can you not acknowledge the book Lord of the Flies? I mean, it's like, what does he not get about it? It's a lot like, like if you're watching a Batman movie. And you're like, why don't they just say there's movies about Batman? Yeah, or why it's a world where like in 1989,
Starting point is 00:50:56 no one was excited about going to see Batman. That's what I think they should do in Godzilla movies. And I've said this online. I think the Godzilla movies now they should say, should reference Godzilla movies. Right yeah. It's vampire movies that never mentioned Dracula like where they're all like what is this? He's biting people's necks? How about the Mark's famous one?
