D
When I saw the spring.
A
Right.
C
Like, five months.
A
Five months. Five months ago, when I saw the teaser that they posted, I was like, oh, my God, this still hasn't come out. Yeah, but they. Survivor, the television show did, like, a full Survivor experience for influencers, where they really, like, set these influencers.
C
Yeah.
A
Into the world of the show.
C
They sent them to Fiji. They were in Fiji. And they stayed on the island for 36 hours. Played a game, they did a challenge, a tribal council, and. And then build shelter.
D
Honestly, shout out to. Cause when Boston Rob came on the show, this all started, apparently, because when Boston Rob came on, tricks in the office and Rhea was like, oh, Tommy's a big Survivor fan, blah, blah, blah. Like, that's how they caught wind of, like, that whole thing. And that's how he got, like, how.
C
He came in there.
A
You're welcome, Tommy.
C
Yeah, exactly. Always.
A
I feel like so much of his office, so much of his success, he really should be crediting Thomas.
C
I know it's kind of crazy, but. No, it was really interesting. And as you know, we're reality people. So seeing people that we know. Alyssa publicity was there last night. Got to see her. Haven't seen her in forever. Joey. Joey was there. He showed up. I'm like, how'd you catch an invite to this?
D
I looked over. I'm like, what is Joey?
A
You know, he's just one of those people that's like, he's everywhere all the time, you know, But.
C
Yes, but so.
A
So, yeah.
C
That we got to Go to the Paramount building and see a screening of it. We also got to see a screening of the first episode of Survivor, of the new season 49. So that was cool. Can't talk about it, though, but that's. Yeah, it was awesome.
A
Season 49 is out now, but they. Didn't they just announce the cast for.
C
Season 50 or they've already filmed. Filmed 50?
A
Yeah, they did.
C
That also doesn't come out, I think, until, like.
A
Yeah, I think it's like a whole.
C
I forgot they were talking about yesterday, but I'm not. I'm not as in. Oh, my God. Really? It's. It's really good. I'll tell you. It's a. It's a commitment because so many episodes and you really got to get into it. But I've watched. I asked Tommy a few years ago which ones. He has, like, a big breakdown of, like, the best ones to watch, and I watch most of those and. And they are really good. I'm a big Parvati, Stan. Yeah, I love her, and so I've watched all of her seasons.
A
Loved her on Traders.
C
So I just obsessed with.
A
Yeah, yeah, but she's.
C
She's really good on Survivor.
A
Yeah.
C
But, yeah, it was a cool thing. And then we went out for a little. A little drink after. And, you know, once I get started, I can't stop. And one thing leads to another, and I'm having a good time. I'm singing at the top of my lungs at the bar. Yeah, it's just a regular sports bar in Times Square, essentially. And it's like, you know, then White Mare.
D
What, you went out in time? I. I left.
C
No, it wasn't.
A
It was like.
C
We were like a block over. Okay. I mean, we were still in Times Square.
A
Adjacent. Times Square, Jason.
C
Yeah, we were in. We were at, like, a Broadway bar.
A
Oh. You know. You know, those can be fun, though, on a weeknight because I've not Go to shows and then they come in and it's. It's.
C
It's.
A
It's fun vibes.
C
A bug just flew into my style.
A
Did you see that?
C
I did see that happen.
A
It's the same one.
C
Oh, my God. I smacked it.
A
You did get it. But.
C
Oh, but now I.
A
Back there.
C
Oh, and I just looked directly in the.
A
This is probably so gross. Let me tell you. We, like, Ri and I. I think we mentioned this bug like, every episode now. People probably think this studio is disgusting, but I think, you know, it's. Dare I say, bug.
C
It's just.
A
Dare I say it's the same bug. I went to do a Lipa Wednesday night. She's at MSG tonight, which is Thursday and I think through the weekend as well.
C
I'm so jealous. I had no idea.
A
She some amazing shows like this fall. Like it's been nonstop going through the city. I feel like every, like so many amazing tours.
C
Totally.
A
I am just stunned by her presence, you know, like she is drop dead gorgeous and so talented. We had, we were on the floor, which is amazing. I don't do floor like ga often but at MSG it can be so great because they really don't pack it. Like there's so much space.
C
Yeah.
A
Like she went on probably a little after 8:30 and I went with my friend Madeline and Madeline and I probably walked onto the floor at like 8, 8:25. So it's like, you know, we weren't there hours, hours, hours early. Like trying to make sure we had a spot or whatever.
C
Yeah.
A
And we walked up and I was like trying to just stand on my tippy toes to be like, oh, how close are we?
C
Yeah.
A
And she's a little bit taller than me. And she was like, no. Literally the stage is right there. Cuz it's like she had a catwalk right, right, right out into it. And I was like, oh my God.
C
So, so nice.
A
We had.
C
You know, I didn't even look at your amazing view.
A
I was just skim through my. I'm skim through your stories because I skim through my stories. Jesse.
C
I don't know how I missed it.
A
How close you were. And her amazing outfits.
C
Oh my God.
A
What the hell?
C
Wow, look at that outfit. Oh my God. I know.
A
A lot of confetti. I love a lot of conf.
C
Wow. Great. Oh my God. Feathers and sparkles, etc.
A
I know. I love Dua Lipa this like full like bodysuit. No, I know. Oh my God. At one point, really right up in her. At one point she goes on this little stand.
C
Wow.
A
And it like raises her up in the air and she puts on this giant fur coat. It's. She's like actually the coolest person of all time. So cool that I have, I think I have bumped it up to number one on my like celebrity celebrities who I want to have a drink with oh list. I think Dua Lipa has now gone to number one because she also always talks about like loving a girl's night out. Loving a little cheeky dirty martini with her girlfriend. And I'm like saying, well, she does, she does.
C
Being a celebrity. Right in the way that like, she. She makes her money, she does her gigs, she goes on vacation, she has sex with her hot boyfriend and then does it all over again. Rinse.
A
She's marrying that guy, Calum Turner.
C
Oh, I forgot that they're engaged. So hot.
A
Like, I know, I know.
C
But for real, though, like, she. And she doesn't. She doesn't get involved.
A
She really does it, right?
C
Politics, drama, anything. She's just like, I'm on vacation and I'm doing concerts and I'm looking high.
A
Right? It's like, if you follow her on social media, you. You are either seeing her promoting new music, posting tour content, or, like, traveling through Europe on beautiful trips on some.
C
Kind of boat and on a yacht.
A
Like, just living her best life.
D
I do like how she uses her Instagram because it feels like a normal person.
A
She does.
C
Yeah.
D
It's a lot of, like, roundup pictures.
A
She just seems like a very normal person who has, like, a group of friends that are very normal and, like, is still friends with all those people and has a ton of fun. So, yeah, I really bumped her up to the top of my list. You're welcome. Dua Lipa. Just. But anytime you're free. Yeah, just call me. Would love to get a martini with you.
C
I'll talk along as well.
A
She is, like, really maybe the most beautiful person I've ever seen in my life too.
C
It's just.
A
She's so stunning.
C
Damn. I'm so.
A
She just has the coolest accent. Like, when she talks.
C
I love her accent. Love a little British. I. I go crazy for a British accent. Like, it's kryptonite.
A
She really is beyond cool. Beyond cool.
D
Olive is just, like, pastel.
A
She is passed out.
C
She really is with her teeth.
A
I know. There's out her mouth squished. Oh, she knows we're talking about her. Sorry.
C
Sorry, baby.
A
Yes. Stretch.
C
Oh, my God, she's so cute.
A
No, I was sending pictures, videos to Joe and he was like, I really should have went to this concert with you.
C
I was like, yep. Yeah.
A
I actually saw so many funny tick tocks of girls making videos at Dua Lipa shows. Being, like, so nice. My husband bought me Dua Lipa tickets. And then, like, pants are like. The husband, he's just, like, watching her like this.
C
I was gonna say, I'm surprised Joe.
A
Didn'T want to go just because. Mesmerized. I know. I said to my brother, I was like, oh, I'm going to do a Lipa. He was like, I may need to get a solo ticket to that there was a lot of. There was a lot of groups of guys there, I'm not gonna lie. Oh yeah, there was, there was. There was one dude on the floor next to us. I was peeing my pants. He was just vibing out. He was in like cheetah print shorts and a Bonnaroo T shirt. He had like long blonde hair and a mustache. I don't know if he was on mushrooms. I don't know, but he was feeling himself and he was just fucking bouncing back and forth singing the words of Dua Lipa. And I was just like, okay, you.
C
Just singing future nostalgia.
A
Yeah. You just really wanted to. To be a Dua Lipa. She does a great. She doesn't do like the whole. What's the song from Barbie? Oh, watch me dance. Dance the night away. She does a little part of it during the encore and like puts all like Barbies up on the screen. Yeah.
C
What. What was like the song that brought the house down. Like, what's Dua? Lipa's big, like big one right now.
D
Electricity.
A
She did. I mean, one kisses. One kiss. Did she do the hit thing? Yeah, she did it.
C
Of course.
A
Houdini. She did the whole dance at Houdini. There was next to us that did the whole dance too. And she.
C
They really.
A
I actually really liked her new album, which is what wanted me like, which is why I wanted to go see this tour is like, I really did like this radical optimism. I obviously I bought a sweatshirt.
D
I mean, do you ever go to a concert and not know the merch?
C
No, you gotta get taxes and Fran.
A
Leaves a concert with merch.
D
But like. But I go to concerts where I'm not like a giant fan. I just want to go to the concert and I'm like, I don't need that.
A
But then I'm like, what a way to remember this night.
C
Exactly.
D
I would get that because that's just a cool.
C
That's the best way.
A
Yeah, it is.
C
I thought it was a 6.4Lady Gaga T shirts. Like, by the way, my favorite. Remember. Remember how we had to buy the like xx? That's my favorite shirt. The big ass. It's so big that like the sleeves are literally down to here. But it's my favorite T shirt now, so.
A
So this new album is. I really liked it. The one that she put out last year. So like these Walls is a great one that I loved. But I mean, she does levitating physical, like, love again. She does new, obviously. And then she ends with like all the big ones. New rules. Don't Start Now.
D
Yeah, she did a cover.
C
Yeah, she did. She did.
A
Alicia Keys.
C
Really?
D
No one.
C
Oh, my God, I love that song.
A
So, yeah, she always tries to the pipes like that. She does, she does. She does.
C
Damn.
A
She does. Which is another thing, too. Like, she is singing. Mike is on. She is singing and she is dancing and she is putting on a show.
C
Future Nostalgia is my favorite of hers. Yeah, that came out, and I got real obsessed with it. I love Don't Start Now.
A
Yeah.
C
And what's the one that she. That she's got the. The music video for where it's like water? It's like underwater. I love that song, too.
A
No, no, but that's.
C
I'll tell you right now. I'll look it up. I'll look it up.
A
Hallucinate.
C
No, no.
D
Illusion, I think. Or no Houdini water music.
A
Is it Houdini?
C
Wait, no, it's old. It's from. It's from. Oh, I am. I'm. Sometimes I'm 100 years old with the. With the phone.
A
Yeah. Don't worry.
C
So am I. I don't know what the hell is wrong with you.
A
Anytime I need to Google something, I never type it out right. Like, I'm just. It's. Something's misspelled. There's.
D
Illusion is what comes up.
A
Yeah.
D
When you search underwater. Dua Lipa music video.
C
No, it's not underwater. Sorry. It's like she's in, like, a restaurant, and it's like. But there is a water element. There's like a mermaid element. No, we're good. We're good. That's it.
A
Thank you.
C
Thank you. We're good. Yeah, yeah, that's it.
A
But no, she. She was. She was fantastic.
C
So. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
Yes.
C
I'm on an island.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
C
Even when you're close. Yeah. Yes. Yeah.
A
She doesn't sing that on the tour.
C
Oh, man. Bummer. Yeah, it's my fave.
A
But, no, it was really, really good. Loved. Loved.
C
Major.
A
Every moment. Yeah, it was a fantastic concert, but we have a lot to talk about. We have topics, we have trivia, so we'll get into it. I know. She's, like, legit snoring right now.
C
I can't. I know, Larry. I know. Wait, also, she's so are you. Are. You guys travel around people.
A
I am.
C
Forest Hills. I know.
A
I really want.
C
I really want to go.
A
I really.
C
Especially Forest Hills after we saw hose. You're there. Oh, my God. Got to go. All right, cool, cool.
A
I know. I have, like, one. I Think one of the days I can go. I think maybe, like, the 24th.
C
Cool. Let's make it work.
A
I forget which day it was, but I just remember looking at them because she's also. It's this weekend.
C
Chop around. Yeah.
D
Are you sure? I thought Mount Joy was this weekend.
A
Mount Joy is also this weekend at Forest Hill. I want to say Mount Joy is not at Forest Hills, though.
D
Oh, they're msg.
A
No. Or are they?
D
I thought they were for ourselves, but.
A
They'Re Friday the 19th. I think Chapel Ron is maybe like.
C
Oh, it is this weekend.
A
Yeah. I think she's the 20th. The 21st.
C
2021. 23, and 23.
A
24.
C
Yeah. Yeah. All right, well, let's go on Wednesday.
A
Yes.
C
So I'm like, 24th. I really want to go. I didn't really.
A
I think Joe would come, too. He loves Chapel.
C
I. I really die for her. And.
A
And I love.
C
I just.
A
And I. I. I just really, like, also love her music. Like, I listen to her music all the time.
C
So.
D
Yeah, Forest Sales is. And I'm still so confused where I thought that they were, like, shutting it down because.
A
Yeah, there was a lot of back and forth on that.
C
Oh, music complaints.
A
Yeah. Like, the neighborhood always tries to get them to not do the summer shows because of, like, the noise and crowds and whatever, because they have, like, a very strict stop time.
C
Yeah. Yeah.
A
I thought it was, like, a bigger problem this summer, too. And then they announced the full might.
D
Be, like, for, like, future.
A
Yeah, maybe down the line. Oh, no, I forget.
C
Well, then we got to get there before they start making these rules.
A
Totally, totally perfect. Okay, we have trivia, we have some topics. We've got SNL just announced their fall lineup.
C
Yes.
A
Very exciting. Camp Rock 3 is confirmed by the cast and the Jones Brothers. And Disney. We have our Dance with the Stars recap because the first episode aired Tuesday night and the Summer I Turned Pretty finale and the movie news, and really, it's the only thing that's consumed my brain. So I'm ready to talk about that immediately. But we'll go through. We'll go through our other topics first, because I think that's. I probably need the longest to talk about that.
C
Absolutely.
A
All right, so let's get into it. We can't wait for all the amazing concerts coming up this fall. You guys know, I was just at Dua Lipa, and like I said, there are so many amazing shows this fall.

C
So excited about that.
A
Which is.
C
Love, Carpenter. Love.
A
I know, I know.
C
I love all these people, though.
A
I think a lot of people did think maybe they would see Taylor Swift.
C
I did. I said that I thought October 4th. I thought, I thought Taylor Swift, musical guest, possibly. I was looking at the chief schedule. Could Travis be the. You know, could he have been post and whatever. But no, I thought for sure just because of the album coming out on the third. But I don't know. Maybe she's over snl.
A
Yeah. She is doing Graham Norton, right?
C
Yep.
A
Which.
C
Which is so excited. Yeah. She's doing that with Killian Murphy, Greta Lee, Jody Turner Smith and Donald Gleason.
D
Yeah.
C
Who I love. Amazing. Really good.
A
Good group.
C
I know.
A
Good group.
C
Killian.
D
Killian Murphy. It's just gonna be so funny.
C
Like, I'm with you. It's like, what are they gonna. I just feel even that whole crew. Did you kill it? I don't think so, man.
D
It was right there.
C
Really, really good group. And I love Graham Norton. People are saying. Yeah, it's reports are that the promo for the album is gonna be as big as Michael Jackson's Thriller.
A
Wow.
C
That's what they say.
A
And then that kind of sounds crazy, though, because if it's like, oh, she's doing one talk show.
C
Well, that's only the beginning.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
C
I think she's doing the Super Bowl.
A
She really doesn't I do think I should. I think she's doing this.
C
I really think it. I really, really. I'm now with the. With them putting out being like, it's the biggest album rollout since Thriller. I went and I looked up Super Bowl. When did Michael Jackson do it? And he did it in 1993. And it's. They credit Michael Jackson's super bowl halftime performance with, like, the turning point in the halftime show. Like, it became what it is now because of that. And in my head, I'm like, why are you referencing specifically that if you're not doing the Super Bowl? You know, I just. I. I feel it in my bones. I'm ready. I'm ready for it. Literally.
A
Literally. I do think I agree with you, by the way. I think it would be an announcement after the album comes out that she would. That she would do the super bowl.
C
But maybe she'll announce on Graham Norton.
A
Maybe.
C
Maybe she's going on the show on the third, so he's the first talk show that she's doing.
A
Okay, that makes sense.
C
So. Yeah, that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Very exciting.
A
Yeah, definitely. I think Sabrina will be fantastic.
C
I think she's so funny.
A
Really funny. She is really funny.
C
She's hilarious. Excellent performer. I wonder what song she'll do. I hope she does. Maybe she'll do, like a deep cut and.
A
Yeah. Popular one album, I'm sure.
C
I hope she doesn't do espresso. Not because I don't like espresso. It's just we're over it.
A
No, if anything, I think, like, new it'd be maybe she'll do. My guess would be she would do Tears or Man Child. Agreed with maybe.
C
Man on Willpower. People love that one. Nobody's Son. I love that one too. I love the new album.
A
I do, too. We didn't really talk about on the show that much, to be honest.
C
Oh, it's excellent.
A
Yeah. I don't know. That's a good. No. Yeah, we'll see. But manchilder tears, I think for sure.
C
Definitely.
A
And then the other one, whatever the other one is, could be a. Could be a mystery, but could be a miss. I also love the Amy Poehler role model combo as well.
C
You know what? I need to watch her interview with Olivia Coleman, who I love. Did you watch it? Of course it was. I meant to watch. I was gonna watch it last night.
A
It puts it. Put the biggest smile on my face. Truly, like, Amy Poehler's podcast is like, you know, when there's just a shit ton of, like, when it's just bad news happening everywhere. And we've had a lot of it. And there's been a lot going on this week, too, where you're just like, holy shit, what is going on? And. And I just want. You want to, like, listen. You want to escape for a second. Listen to something happy. Amy Poehler's podcast is amazing. I have loved listening to it.
C
Me too.
A
And the two of them are spectacular. I mean, I just. I love. I adore Olivia Colman.
C
Absolutely adore. She is. She's one of my favorite actresses of all time. But as a person.
A
Yeah.
C
I think that she, too, is, like, one of the funniest, like, quickest. Like, she's just so. I love. She's very, very dry, and she has, like, that. She's just so quick, like, in everything she says, and I just. I love her.
A
It's where that. It's where that quote came from this week that has been going viral of Amy Poehler talking about, like, the Oscars, that. It's like that they don't really.
C
Oh.
A
Honor Comedy.
C
Comedy. Yeah.
A
In any way. And, like, it's looked down upon. Like, the comedies don't get enough credit because the two of them are both saying, you know, it's. Comedy is very hard to do. And they were talking about doing comedy and drama and transitioning, because Olivia Colman really can do it all, and she is very funny.
C
She's really good. Olivia Coleman, specifically, my. One of my favorite movies. The favorite. Yeah. Where she plays the Queen. Queen Anne. Yeah. Yeah. And she. It's like, that movie is a funny drama. Like, it's supposed to be both. And I think that all of the people in that movie do a really good job. But Olivia Colman, like, she has moments where she's funny and she's, like, you know, obviously struggling, but then she has other moments of, like, you know, her because she had mental health problems, this woman in real life. And so switching on and off between that is impressive in itself. You know, I just love her. No, I got to go watch.
A
You got to listen. And this. I'm not spoiling too much of it, but she just cracks me up because at the end, Amy always asks her guests, like, what. What's making you laugh these days? Like, what's. What's funny and what are you enjoying?
C
And she.
A
She said, you know, she was like, whenever my husband, like, accidentally falls or, like, bumps his ass.
C
She was like, must be awesome.
A
She was like, nothing's funnier. Like, you're just dial. And then Amy was Like, have you ever watched America's Funniest Home Videos? And she was like, no. What? And then they were. They just started talking about that and just like, that kind of. That kind of humor. She's so sweet. And even talking about her husband, like, they've been married. They've been together for a really long time. And she just talks about him in, like, the sweetest way. So it's really cute. I highly recommend. I literally watch, like, as soon as they come out on Tuesday. Like, usually I do too. I love them.
C
I, like, was. I forgot it was on and I meant to watch it yesterday and I.
A
Yeah, she just had Selena, which was a really good one.
C
Selena's was great. She did one with Aubrey Plaza.
A
Yes. I loved that one. And I just also listened to her with the comedian, who I think is so funny. I was just finishing the episode. Zarna, have you seen her? No.
C
Yeah, yeah.
A
She just. She did a podcast, Amy with Zarnagar.
C
She's fucking hysterical.
D
This is what I just sent you. No, it looks. I mean, I don't know.
A
Do not disturb.
D
Oh, there's pictures of like. Oh, Zach Efron, Adobe Rev on a boat with. It's like. It looks like a triple date.
C
No way.
A
Zac Efron, Nina Dobrev, Chace Crawford, Kelsey Merritt, Miles Teller and Kelly Teller. No. Have some fun in the sun on a yacht in Italy.
C
Good for Nina.
A
You know what, Nina, if you're gonna rebound, rebound with Zach Efron.
D
Zach's got the blonde hair.
A
Zach does have the blonde hair again.
C
Oh, off. That is something, huh?
A
Wow. These pictures are kind of insane. I mean, just not autumn, but also of like. Of Chase. Chase Crawford and Kelsey Merritt. I also think is a very sweet.
C
Yeah.
A
Because I think they've all been like that friend group. Like, they all kind of have a friend group.
C
Totally.
A
And I feel like they have been friends for a while and then obviously it's now become.
C
Yeah.
A
A more serious thing.
C
Chase Crawford. Oh, yeah. Oh, that reminds me. Gen V is back.
A
Yeah.
C
I really want. I gotta catch up.
A
Wow. There's pictures of him jumping off this yacht from, like, really high up. And Zac Efron. It, like, doesn't look like he has a comfortable landing. Like, I know.
D
He's like.
A
He's like. I'm sure he's doing some sort of flip or something, but the still photo, like, makes it look like he's going belly flop from very high up. I'm sure he was.
C
He's a. You know, he's. He's an Adrenaline junkie as well.
A
Damn.
C
His brother. Like, his brother who's.
A
Oh, no. 100. Sorry. I am mesmerized by these photos.
C
Can I see one? One? That's not that.
A
None of them are, like, together.
C
Oh, got it.
A
Like, none are of, like, Nina and Zach. All, like, group photos. Well, the beginning, but it's like.
D
But. But. I mean, they're just talking, but.
A
Yeah.
C
Interesting. But. Yeah, I mean, that's a. That's a group of, like, that.
D
That one is, like, they're talking.
A
Yeah. But someone's also sitting right next to her.
C
You know who. You know who would give us the tea is Kelly Teller.
A
She.
C
She loves it. She loves to spill. That tea should DM her. Hey, girl. What do you know about this?
A
Oh, my God.
C
I actually haven't seen her in a while. I feel like Kelly and Miles Teller have been a little mia. Do you know?
A
Yeah, they have. They have a little bit, but they.
C
Had a lot going on in their life.
A
You know, it's funny. People are freaking out. Like, they're commenting, like, oh, my God, Nina kissing Chase Crawford in this picture. It's like, no, Kelly. Like, Kelsey Merritt's also in a black bathing suit.
C
And from the back, like, they look similar. They look. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
I. I.
C
Did we ever get to the bottom of what happened with her and Nina and Sean? No. I was sad about that, but I was sad.
A
I know. Well, I saw some rumors that it was like, he wasn't ready to settle down or something. Like, he wasn't actually ready to get married. And, like, she wants to, like, get married and have kids and, like, wanted. Oh, and they were at, like, maybe it. That was like. My original thought was when they first broke up is what I said to Rhea, too, on the show was like, they've been engaged. They've engaged for almost a year. We've heard nada of wedding planning. Nothing. It's like. Like, I was like, maybe it's just a situation where they're, like, perpetually engaged right now, and one of them's like, hello. Like, are we getting married or what? You know?
C
Yeah. Because after a certain point, it's like, yeah, it's been a long time. Are we. Do we have a date? We have a venue. Do you have something? Right.
A
It's not like they're 22 and 23 getting engaged, and it's like, hey, let's be engaged for six years. Who cares?
C
I guess it's like, why propose if you're not.
A
If you want to maybe have conversation.
C
Maybe it was an ultimatum situation.
A
Exactly.
C
Maybe.
A
Yeah. But even then, maybe he thought he was buying himself some more time.
C
Yeah, maybe.
A
Yeah, I know. Damn.
C
That's a bummer. It's a bummer. But if she's rebounding with Zack Efron.
A
Also very interesting, I think, too, when the friend group.
C
Yeah.
A
Is clearly still hanging out with Nina.
D
Uhhuh. Yeah. You know, she's in that world, you know, like Sean White.
A
She is. I guess it was like Sean White was kind of like her plus one.
C
Sean. And it was like Tony Hawk, his friends. I don't know, like other pastrana. Yeah.
A
He snowboards.
C
Kelly Slater.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
C
Ooh.
A
So we got. We've gone surfing. One Skateboarding. Yes.
C
All the other extreme sports, guys. I don't know. Yeah. I love.
A
That is true, though.
C
That is so.
A
I feel like it was Nina that brought him into it, you know? But I love that for her, like, it's like, hey, guys, what can we do? Let's go on a trip.
C
Yeah.
A
Let's get the yacht off the coast.
C
Fire it up.
A
Cup. And it's looks like it's just the six of them. There's a video at the end too, as well, where they're just vibing. The boys are vibing.
C
I love.
A
Like, Miles is dancing. Oh, looks like Miles is maybe doing the gritty.
C
He's a Philly guy, right?
A
Yeah, he is. Let me tell you something. I. This friend. This friend group seems like so much fun.
C
I want to hang out with them so bad.
A
So much fun.
C
Miles Teller would, like, beat our friend group, like, if.
A
100. You know what I mean?
C
Like, he and Kelly, I think they would.
A
I think Trace coffee would too.
C
100.
A
I think they're maybe, like, doing drugs.
C
Absolutely. Of course.
A
Like, I hope so.
C
Yeah. In Europe.
A
But my God, does it look like they. Yeah.
C
No.
A
My ears don't even.
C
Not even the idea.
A
But my God, does it seem like they're having balls? Good time.
C
Absolutely jealous. Call us up next time. Always available.
A
I'm looking right at you, Nina. Yeah.
C
Yeah.
A
You invite Zac Efron on that?
C
Yeah. Yeah.
A
Well, because it's also Zach. You know Zach. Single friends. Zach's obviously good friends with those guys, too. Done movies with them. Well, Miles. Has he ever done anything with Chase? I don't know, but definitely Miles.
C
Yeah.
A
So it's like, ah, who should we. Who do we call?
C
Nina Dobret.
A
Zach is down. Nina's down. I love it.
C
I love it. And Zach is just. I. I love him. I love him, and I feel like he's gone through some, you know, some. Some facial issues, like, what's going on with this.
A
Right, right.
C
Sure. He's had the. The jaw thing. Hurt himself, like, you know, I feel like he's. He's had a tough go the last five years or so.
A
I like the bleach, and I love.
C
That he's out and about. I love him.
A
I really like the bleach hair look for him.
C
Yeah.
A
But he just seems.
D
Yeah, we pull it off.
A
Yeah.
C
I liked him. Well, I've always loved Zach, obviously, but I liked him a lot. After he did that interview with part of my take a million years ago, I was like this. You're the most interesting man in the world. Yeah. Love it. Just seems like a genuine, really genuine guy.
A
I know. I felt like that, too, even watching, like, all the. His show down to Earth. And the other one. He did, too.
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
But damn, a lot. I mean, what were you even talking about before the SNL lineup? I guess really took over my brain, but, yeah. Excited for an snl. It'll be good. We're talking about. She's gonna be amazing, obviously.
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.
A
And I'm excited.
C
Oh, yeah.
A
Who was the first role model? Does some sketches.
C
Me too.
A
Like, I feel like he's very funny. He'd be good doing that.
C
He is.
A
Also now he's acting.
C
Right. What movie is he coming in?
A
He's doing that Natalie Portman rom com that they've been filming in New York, which is why when. When I went to Gracie Abrams and he opened. Natalie Portman was the. Sally.
C
Sally.
A
Yeah. Yep, yep. Because I guess, like, she. Natalie Portman dates, like, some Brooklyn hipster, obviously.
C
Obviously. Of course.
A
Obviously. Him. And I think Mark Ruffalo's in it. It's a. Yeah. Which, you know, right up my alley.
C
Yeah, I'm satisfied for that.
A
That sounds fucking amazing. You know what movie I'm really excited for? That came out with some fantastic reviews already. I don't know if it's already gone up or down. What is Miles Teller? Eternities. Eternity. Eternity. And it's Miles Teller and Elizabeth Olsen and Callum Turner.
C
What the hell? How'd I miss this? I don't come across my desk.
A
Oh, it's got. It's an 87. It's an 87 now, but it's not coming out till I think around Thanksgiving. Oh, my. End of November.
C
I'm in.
A
It's. This is what?
C
Turner.
A
Mr. Dua.
C
Lipa.
A
Of course, Mr. Lipa. In an afterlife where souls have one week to Decide where to spend eternity. Joan is faced with the impossible choice between the man she spent her life with and her first love, who died young and has waited decades for her to arrive.
C
Chills.
A
Full body chills. Oh, my God.
C
I can't wait.
A
Wow, that sounds. So who do you choose? I know, I know.
C
My last choosing. My first love.
A
And it's a 24.
C
Oh, forget it. Forget it. Lights out.
A
Yeah, I'm excited.
C
That sounds amazing.
A
First love.
C
But of course, I'm really excited for as well. That, like, movie that Amanda Seyfried, Sydney Sweeney, whatever the hell.
A
Housemates.
C
Oh, that's Housemate.
A
Okay.
C
Which I've not read the book. Yeah, and I've got to read it.
A
Divine Joy Randolph is also in this as well. Love her.
D
That new Leonardo DiCaprio movie I'm seeing.
A
People rave about, he's doing.
C
He's doing Fallon. Did you see that?
D
Leonardo DiCaprio.
A
Yes.
D
They were like, who else is he gonna do?
C
For real? They were like, see the quote?
A
But as someone asked him about the summer I turned pretty. Because on the Today show, they were like, Leo DiCaprio's talking about the show. And I was like, where is he? Where is he talking about the show?
D
I saw a clip of Howard Stern.
A
Oh, he. Oh, well, Howard Stern is talking about. Someone says.
C
I guess he was Chris Briney. Posted. Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
A
Wait. He did post. Well, because people have been. Been comparing Chris to young.
D
Yeah, I've seen that.
C
Young Leo. And people are. People are saying, like, they want Chris Barney to play Leo's son at some point.
A
Yeah, yeah. Howard Stern is team comrade as well. He says that he does watch the show.
D
I saw. He was just like, well, Jeremiah is obviously, like hotter. Like.
A
Yeah, yeah. Which is kind of a crazy take. I mean, I get it. But like, he's.
C
They're hot in different ways.
A
They are. They are.
C
Yeah. Yeah. God.
A
Anyway. Wow.
C
Okay. So whatever. So Leo's got that movie coming. People are saying that they spent like $175 million on it. So that's why they're making them do all this press. Ye. Yeah.
A
I've never seen Leo do something. Yeah. Like, really are better get out there. They really are. I'm seeing a lot of videos of him. More than ever.
C
Probably same.
A
At least. At least in a long time.
C
And I'm happy about that. I love Leo. Well, another fan.
A
Yes.
C
Right. He's okay. We can like him.
A
Yeah, of course.
C
Thank God.
A
In other groundbreaking award winning movie news, Cameron 3 is confirmed. Disney confirmed it yeah, yeah, yeah. Brock, I don't know what my issue here is. Not that I necessarily have an issue, but it is confirmed, obviously. The boys have been on set, they've been posting, they've been doing the tick tocks, the whole thing, that they are reprising their role. All the articles are like, Jonas Brothers back to reprise their role and Demi Lovato back to executive producer. So it's like, oh, does that mean she's not doing anything for the movie? Which sounds crazy.
D
They posted the full cast and she's not in it.
C
I know, but I'm like, pretty nuts. Maybe she's just gonna. Maybe she's gonna do like a cameo.
A
A little, like two seconds where they want to keep a secret. I don't know. Maybe she really won't do it. But I'm like, if you're gonna go through all the trouble to executive produce, which I guess really isn't that much trouble. Like, what?
C
Weren't there also pictures of videos of them or whatever? Like, her with them on?
A
No, it wasn't actually her, but it wasn't her. It did look like her, but it wasn't her.
D
She was like, this would be like rewriting the Bible without Jesus.
C
True.
A
This is like rewriting the Bible without Jesus in it. What a comparison. Can't rock without. What is Camp Rock without Mitchie? Yeah. And then like, she posted about it on her story as well, and people are like, there's no way she does do something.
C
Yeah, I don't know.
A
We'll see. If she doesn't, it'll be very disappointing. It is, of course, like, exactly what we thought. The Josh brothers are probably back there for, like, three days to film what they need to film because they're not gonna be in it that much. But the premise is Connect three is coming back together to do some big, like, reunion tour.
C
Yeah.
A
And they are looking for an opening act, of course. So they go back to the camp to discover some new talent to be the opening act. And there's all these new up and coming young actors and actresses who will be playing the campers. And that's the role. So, like, obviously, once again, it's another thing where I. This is like the problem I have when they just redo all these dizzy things. It's like, okay, they remake the dizzy thing.
C
Yeah.
A
But we're old now, so the movie's not being made for us.
C
Right.
A
So it's like, ah, kick rock down the street. Like, I want the movie to be made for me. Right. Like, what would that Movie look like. I don't know. I have no clue what that movie would be. Look like. Would look like. But it's not being made for me because it is going to be a movie for, like, little kids to love and watch and for, like, the new generation of Cab Rock lovers. I'll watch it, obviously.
C
Yep.
A
But, like, I don't think we're gonna be blown away. Like, we're not gonna be like, no wake if I can't.
C
This movie's not winning any Oscars. That is a fact. Like, no.
A
And of course it never. It never. It never was. And.
C
Right.
A
The fact that they're even doing it is crazy.
C
Yeah. But it's supposed to be for the kids.
D
It's for theaters.
A
No, I think it'll probably go. I think it'll go straight to Disney plus.
C
Yeah, that'd be so crazy. Theaters. Because, I mean. Yeah, the original obviously was.
A
No, no, no, no.
C
Yeah. I was gonna say what?
A
Disney Channel original.
C
Of course. Yeah.
A
No, this is exciting.
C
This is exciting stuff generally, I think. Yeah. But it's true. It's gonna be for kids, so just remember that.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
C
It's gonna be for kids.
A
Right. I had to remind myself that it's like, don't get too worked out.
C
Yeah. You know what I watched the other day? The New. This has nothing to do with Cambrock. I watched the New. I know what you did last summer. Oh. And it is copy paste from the original.
A
Right, right, right.
C
Like, it's the exact same story, same people. They've got cameos from everybody from. Yeah, like.
A
Yeah, it's.
C
It is the exact same. And in my head, I was like, yeah, I'm enjoying this. But I. It's. I've seen this movie. Yeah. I, like, right down to the way people die. It's literally the same. Yeah. And so I had to remind myself. Yeah, it's just for people that have never seen it before, the new crowd that wants to watch Gabriette, you know, whatever, and. And all that.
A
So, yeah, I told. And I. I totally get it. And I. I'm excited that they're all excited about it and that, like, Demi wanted to be back to executive produce and, like, be involved and everything. But it's like. Like, she's not. She's not gonna be in it. I just. I've gotta do one song expecting. Just hear me out. Demi. It's like, yeah, they. The Connect3 wants to find the new act, blah, blah, blah. They do the whole thing. They got the summer jam at the end they're trying to find the winner, but, like, Mitchie comes back to, like, help decide who wins.
C
No, of course I would, like. I would, like, maybe the. Maybe the band or the new. The opener that's going to be selected. Maybe they're feeling, like, a little down and out. Like, they're. They're doing their promo, you know, or not promo. They're doing practice. Right. Like, they're. They're practicing. No one's around. Like, they're just. They're really going through it. They need just, like, one more breakthrough or whatever. And then, like, silently in the back of the room, you hear a slow clap, and it's Demi Lovato coming in and being like, you guys are. You guys are.
A
Because it's like, Mitch. Mitchie's mom is in it. Confirmed.
C
There you go.
A
So she's still involved in the camp. I always wonder, too. And this is like, the absolute pathetic voice in the back of my head that's like, will they even mention her in the movie? Like, will Joe Jonas have a part or a line where he references Mitchie? Are they still together in the movie?
C
Like, yeah, maybe she's. Maybe they'll do the thing with, like. And. And how's Mitchie doing? Oh, she's doing great. She's headlining.
A
Yeah.
C
Glastonbury or something like that. You know what I mean? Like, maybe they'll. They'll be like, oh, she's.
A
She's. Yeah, yeah, she's at the store.
C
She'll be back.
A
Yeah, she's on a. She's on a worldwide tour right now.
C
And now that she's. Now that she's just started her world tour. Right. But we've got to do this on our own.
A
But then it's like, if they do refer to it. And this is once again pathetic.
C
Yeah.
A
Of. Of it. Like, and they're nauseous. Like, oh, you know, that. That died a long time ago. Then I'll just be sad. No. Because I lived in a world where they lived happily ever after. Now you crushed it.
C
Right. You don't need. Right. We don't need. We don't need news of the breakup.
A
Right. That's what I've been worried about.
C
When they.
A
When they started talking about doing what's your hill Again?
C
Yeah.
A
And it was like, okay, well, if that's the case, who are they gonna kill to, like, make this work?
C
Of course.
A
You know?
C
Yep.
A
Like, it's like Peyton and Lucas. Are they gonna be like. Well, now, look, like. Is like Luke is gonna be dead. Then, like, that fucking sucks.
C
Right?
A
Like, because once again, I fantasize about them riding off in the sunset together, which is what they did. And let me live in that world.
C
Right. Don't take away. Don't remove the fantasy and your attempts to, you know, make more money by bringing shows back. Shows, the movies back. But. Yeah. No, I mean, people be. People be hype for it. Yeah. People are gonna be excited.
A
Disney Movie. It's a Disney Channel original. Like, I don't need to be that invested in what happened to these char.
C
Wonder if they'll do, you know, like. And what if they'll make it, like, a half and half? Like, it's four kids, but there's, like, nods and winks.
A
Yeah.
C
The original.
A
No, they definitely will. They have to do something because they're gonna have to. Like, they're gonna want people they'll be servicing, like, those my age who, like us, obviously are gonna watch with their kids, but then they also have to find something for us childless folk that are gonna want to watch.
C
Yeah.
A
That are gonna want to watch us.
C
I need to. I'm, like, making up nieces and nephews, you know? Yeah. Like, oh, I saw that. Because you should hear me talk. Try to talk about K Pop Demon Hunters.
A
Oh, my God. I'm gonna bring it up to, like, my nieces and nephews. Be like, you guys want to watch Camp Rock 3?
C
No.
A
For anybody.
C
It's really anybody. It's hard to not have, like. Like a kid. All my friends have kids. Right. But they are. They're too young.
A
Right.
C
Right. So I can't even blame it on that.
A
Right.
C
And I used to be able to, like. I. I squeezed quite a few more years out of Disney because my brother. So it's like, I've no excuse now.
A
I know nothing about the K Pop Demon Hunter stuff. Zero. Haven't watched it. All I really know is because you'll dance to this. When he danced to the song on Dancing with the Stars.
C
Yep. And that's my favorite song.
A
I really. I've seen only what's been posted on Social. It's a catchy song.
C
No, no, Fran, I'm telling you.
A
Is it a movie or a show?
C
It's a movie on Netflix. It's an animated movie. It's a. It's anime. It's done by the Spider Verse people.
A
Okay.
C
And it's no AI all original music. It's fantastic. Like, really, really good. The story is good. It's interesting. It's fun. But the songs are bangers. I've been listening to the soundtrack non stop. And it's like. I just. It's crazy.
A
Yeah.
C
Kevin Clancy was talking about it because his kids love it.
A
Yeah.
C
And then Gia watched it, and Gia was like, actually, you should watch that movie. Like, it's really good. I was like, all right, fine, I'll watch it. And I watched it with my brother and my mom, and all three of us were like, it's so good. It's so good.
A
Oh, okay. I gotta watch.
C
You gotta watch it. You're gonna love it. You're gonna love it.
A
But. All right, well, that can bring soda pop.
C
That's another one. People will know. My K Pop Demon hunters lovers will know.
A
Yes. Talking about the Days with the Stars premiere was Tuesday night. Big episode. Big episode. Big. Kind of crazy that we didn't have Carrie Ann to start, which was unfortunate. She had posted online that she was really not feeling well, which made me sad because I think obviously she had to be really not feeling well absolutely to miss the show. And I guess I was kind of unaware that she battles, like, a lot of, like, chronic illness.
C
Oh, I had no idea.
A
I think she is lupus.
C
Oh, I didn't know. And when they said she was sick, I. I also was shocked. I thought at first it was, like, a lie. I was like, oh, is something up?
A
Yeah. You know what I mean? Like, what's going on? I went immediately to go to her. Her, like, social to see, like, what really had happened, but she.
C
I don't know.
A
Yeah, it's. It's. Apparently she has several chronic autoimmune conditions.
C
Oh, no.
A
Yeah. Yeah. Which she was missed. Is awful. Really, really missed. I thought. I mean, granted, last minute, probably very hard to, like, put together a guest judge situation.
C
Yeah.
A
But, like, two judges, really not enough. Not enough judges is not going to cut it.
C
We need someone, like, you need someone.
A
In between, like, because Carrie Ann has kind of taken on that role of being now, I guess maybe the stricter judge after, you know, we lost Len. And not having it kind of, like, makes things feel a little silly because at the same time, it's like Derek and Bruno are trying to be nice, and then you like it, but then they're also, like, like, hey, guys. Really trying to say nice things. But remember, it's like the first week. So, like, our scores are gonna be low, like, just because they need to be low. So it's like, hey, that was a great dance, but here's fives. So it's like kind of an in between thing.
C
I feel like they're really Worried about the, like, crowd's reaction. I was surprised they were talking about that a lot. Like, I just feel like they were.
A
Maybe it's.
C
Maybe people get real crazy.
A
A lot of different voices and louder voices and a lot of people are watching. I think I saw that the premiere had five. They had, like a five year high for the premiere.
C
It was the biggest premiere that I think. Didn't Alfonso say that at the end or. No.
A
They doubled the amount of votes from last season already.
C
It's crazy.
A
It is crazy. But let me tell you, like, I. After seeing, like, people's reactions on TikTok and folks jumping into the show for the first time.
C
Yep.
A
Because it is having a resurgence right now. I'm putting on my Dancing with the Stars number one fan hat. Like, I'm like, pulling up the receipts. Absolutely. I'm like, all right, guys, you should. I would like to bring it back to there when there was a time and I was talking about this with someone recently.
C
Yeah.
A
Where There was a time on this here podcast where I had to convince Ria Noah to let me talk about Dancing with the Stars.
C
Yeah.
A
In our closet studio. I would ask for one minute.
C
I remember them rolling their eyes and being like, oh, here she goes.
A
I'd ask. Ask for what? Noah would time me. I know it'd be in the intro. And I would say, please give me one minute to talk about Dancing with the Stars. And they'd be like, all right, start. Yeah. And like, I would get one minute to talk about Dance with the Stars.
C
And now. And now look where?
A
And now here comes all these people. They think they're a expert on dance.
C
All these fair weather fans.
A
Like, I really. I feel like I am the grumpy old man. And I've seen other girls on Tick Tock feel this way too, who are like, I. If you haven't been watched. And I'm like, damn. Now I feel like this too, because I'm seeing some reactions and some critiques of the judging and all these things, and I'm like, you know what? You haven't been through it the way that we've been through it.
C
No. And you know what? And so I'm someone who. I've always loved Dancing with the Stars. I'm very bad at keeping up with it. Like, I'll tune in for dances here and there. I love the clips. I love, but I don't watch it religiously or not for years. Yeah. The very first few seasons, I was locked the fuck in. But now, like, I'm gonna tune in for this whole season because I love the cast. There's too many people on the cast that I'm invested in that I'm obsessed with. I will watch the whole season. But I did notice that it's just way different than it used to be. So for people that maybe thought of it in a certain way from 15 years ago or whatever. Yeah. It's new. New now. And you know, you're. You're coming into it and you can't start picking it apart when you don't know how it's gotten to where it is. So it's like you can't really critique the show because it. The landscape is way different than it used to be.
A
I know. I don't want to be Huffs. I don't want to be that person. I don't want to tell you that.
C
How involved the Huffs were. It's the Huff show.
A
It is the. It has moved it.
C
Gia. I said to one of you posted that it was.
A
It was definitely Gia.
C
And I was like, yeah, for sure. Like, I knew that Derek was involved as a judge and I knew that Julianne had to be involved somewhere because they don't do anything without each other, but I didn't realize that. And I love them both. Like, I am a massive Huff sibling fan, but I was dying over, like, oh, they just run. They run Dancing with the Stars now. Like, that's just. That's their thing.
A
Yeah.
C
Which they're very qualified, I think dance wise.
A
They are. And I love that they've always, you know, kept it in the family, so to say.
C
Yeah.
A
And with. With that world of Dancing with the Stars.
C
Yeah.
A
But no, I have. And I welcome. I also, I also welcome all the new fans. I love that I get to talk about this show now in such an amazing way. And like, we're getting the dancers. People want to hear the. People want to hear about their lives. They want to talk to them, they want to do all these interviews. And nothing makes me. Nothing makes me happier. So it's like I'm having an inner battle because I'm like, oh, my. It's. It's like my own. My own comfort show is now being opened up.
C
Sure.
A
It's opened up to the world.
D
You're a fan of an unknown artist.
C
Yeah.
D
And then they blow up and you're like, oh, now they're too mainstream.
A
Which is funny because it was like. It's not like it was ever an unknown show.
C
Yeah.
A
But it was always made fun of people fucking made fun of me all the Time.
C
And you're right.
A
And they made fun of me all the time.
C
And you're right to feel vindicated.
A
And now look where we are. But it was. It was a really good first episode. I do. I. I always feel for whoever has to go first.
C
Oh, yeah.
A
So, like, Ezra and Jordan, I think it was tough that they had to go first because it's like the judges never want to go too high or do anything too crazy. So it's like they set it, you know, set it pretty low. I thought she had a great dance. Definitely. Anyone that is a gymnast.
C
Yeah, it's.
A
There are. They are performers, and they know how to perform, but there is obviously, like, the loosening up and all these.
C
Yeah, they're very stiff, but.
A
But it's.
C
I feel like everyone starts that way. I. I thought that they were just fine. Yeah.
A
Yeah.
C
Blown away by Jordan.
A
Yeah.
C
I expected more, only because of the gymnast thing, and I feel like gymnasts always do really well on the show, and I'm sure she'll be fabulous, but, yeah, she did not blow me away any more than, like, there were other people. Their first dances blew me.
A
Yeah, they really did. I didn't know what to expect from Elaine Hendricks. Holy.
C
She's one. Blew me away.
A
She blew me away hearing the story, which is also what just makes me love Dancing with the Stars so much, because it's like, we didn't know this. I had no idea that she was, like, a dancer and had come into this Hollywood world, like, as a dancer. And then a terrible car accident.
C
Yep.
A
And obviously, like, wasn't able to continue dancing and now was, like, able to get back to dance, which is so nice. And I loved her routine. She is a showman.
C
Oh, yeah.
A
And she put on the show, and I really. I really love that. I love seeing Dylan Efron get out there and. And shake it. When he was like. When they were like, everyone, pick your anthem. And he was like, milkshake. I was like, no fucking way.
C
That was.
A
So this is. And then afterwards, he was like, no, I listen to this song every morning.
C
I Honestly, I was dead over that. Obviously, I was. I was like, all right, I get why you're picking it. You want to go out there, shake some ass, whatever. I thought that. I think that Milkshake is a very hard song to dance to.
A
Yeah.
C
Very hard song. So I have higher hopes for Dylan as the. As things progress, I'm sure he'll catch the fan vote. Everyone loves Dylan, but I do think that that was a tough. That was a Tough. First. First dance song.
A
Absolutely. But he showed lay best. I appreciate what they wanted to do because I think. I think dance one, they were like, let's kick the door down.
C
Definitely. And I totally get the mind.
A
Yes. 100%. Like, let's put Dylan so out of his comfort zone that, like, this guy, like, after that, you can really only build on it, like, not keep it kind of timid at first. Like, let's just blow right through it.
C
Which is literally torching.
A
Yeah, he really was. Which I. Which I love.
C
It was amazing.
A
Loved that they did that.
C
Hilarious.
A
Really love that they did that. I thought. I thought Alex Earl did a great job.
C
Alex Earl was fantastic.
A
Yeah.
C
Probably as good as I expected, because I expected her to be good.
A
Yeah.
C
I was like, you're without. You're gonna be great. She is a dancer also, right?
A
Like, isn't.
C
She has a background. Yeah, she's a light background.
A
Yes. She was a dancer. She was a dancer growing up. Like, dance was like her sport. So, you know, she was a dancer. But, you know, ballroom really is so different. And. But. But she has it too. She's got it. I mean, God, did she also. Let's, like, she just looked fabulous.
C
So beautiful. It's really.
A
Like, I looked fabulous. Everyone, honestly, whole cast, everybody looked amazing. Look.
C
And people.
A
By the way, I saw, like, a lot of people, a lot of people talking about how Whitney looked.
C
Yes.
A
Which, you know, I thought Whitney looked fabulous. But I think people also forget because it's like we watch them on reality tv, so we see their faces. We know these things. We see it on social.
C
Yeah.
A
But, like, when Whitney started on Secret Life Season 1, it was like going through pregnancy.
C
She's been pregnant the whole time, having given birth.
A
Like, all these things.
C
Yeah.
A
And now everyone's like, what does she do to her body? It's like, it's Oz. Epic.
C
No, no.
A
And this and her face and this and that and all these things. Saying that she's changed all the. All these things. I'm like, well, can we just reel it in on, like, the immediate comments about. About her body and everything?
C
Yeah.
A
Because, by the way, fantastic dance.
C
Holy.
A
Well, so she does have a ballroom dance background.
C
She blew. She blew me away probably more than anyone. Yeah. She really. I don't think I knew that she had that in her bag. Like, I did not know that she was a competitive dancer. They said that she. She went to the rival school as.
A
Rival. Rival dance gym. As Winnie car person.
C
Yes. And so I. I think that that now, knowing that and her Being with Mark and. And all that, like, it's like, yeah, okay, She's. She's gonna be tremendous. But I mean, yes, she looked absolutely gorgeous. And I think people. You're right. People see her on Secret Lives, and I feel like both seasons she's just been pregnant. Yeah.
A
Yeah.
C
Either getting pregnant or. Or just had the baby or whatever. And so, you know, maybe you just haven't seen her in a while and I don't know. But yeah, it's. It's kind of crazy when people just immediately are like, oh, my God, she's on Ozempic. Like, whatever. It's like, no know, I don't think. Can she take that. She's Mormon, you know? Like, I feel like they do the ketamine thing. I know, but I love that show. You know? I love that show. Yeah, but I think, like, I think.
A
That she's like, whatever. She's fit as, like. Yeah, it's just like, whatever. I don't care if she is or she isn't or whatever she's doing, like, just. It's just like. It's just the immediate. It's every single comment on, like, their dance and the videos and like every, like everything that she's saying.
C
People are obsessed.
A
I love her hair this color too, by the way.
C
Me too. She's.
A
I. She does.
C
She looks better than ever, but it's like she's got, Got. Got the right hair color.
A
Oh, yeah.
C
It's just like training for this. Like, it's a whole thing.
A
It's just coming from. In a way. It's like, oh, my God, she changed so much. I'm like, okay, let's just.
C
Yeah.
A
But Mark has been cracking me up too on Tick Tock. Oh, my God. Because I think he is also. I think the dancers are also deal. The pros are dealing with this whole new audience as well. It's like one of the top comments, I guess, on maybe their dance on a Tick Tock or something. Market reposted it and it was like something maybe I could find. It was something that was like choreo. Was like, not that great. Like too much ballroom dance.
C
Yeah.
A
Oh, my God. Sorry.
C
It's literally ballroom dance.
A
Yeah. Like girlfriend.
C
Okay.
A
Try and get as comfortable as possible. Yeah, okay.
C
Twisting around. Hi, sweetie.
A
Sometimes she wants to go this way. I'm like, you can't. You can't fit that way. Okay, let me see if I can find it. He said, oh, yeah, here it is. Someone commented. Are you kidding? I'm sure she is a great dancer, but that choreo was. That choreograph was so mid. Majority of it was them just ballroom dancing and her kicking her feet up.
C
It's literally what it's supposed to be.
A
And Mark Green screened it and, like, is doing this hilarious dance. And it's just like. Like, he's highlighted the fact that the complaint was mostly ballroom dancing. And he wrote, like, he wrote into, you know, AI whatever was like, chat GBT or something, being, like, what is the primary dance on, like, Dancing with the Stars. It's like Dancing with the Stars is a Latin and ballroom dance show.
C
Like, it's just well and right. And that's. That's what it is. It's the newbies who don't know. And it's like, okay, do your research before you get in the comments. Mark, too. I'm excited because he's on Traders. Very excited.
A
Yeah, yeah.
C
Coming soon.
A
Yep. That is so true.
C
So he's gonna start getting. That's another thing about now I feel as if the. What are they? Professionals. What are they?
A
Yeah, the pros.
C
The pros.
A
Sorry, Professionals.
C
My brain is not working. Yeah, the pros are now, like, they've always been famous. Like, there are a few of them more famous than others. But I do think that, like, now all of a sudden, it's like. Like, Val. Everyone knows Val. Everyone knows Mark. I think Jan is the new. The newest. The newest pro. He, of course, is from the ERAS tour. Everybody knows him from the ERAS tour. And he also performs like he performed a lot at the Oscars and Golden Globes.
A
Like, this.
C
A dancing gig where there's a television. John is there and Jan Ravnic, and he is with Jen from.
A
Yeah, I thought they were great, too.
C
Eight weeks postpartum for her.
A
All those lifts. I know.
C
Oh, my God.
A
I know. I was so impressed.
C
Shocking.
A
Really, really impressed.
C
I can't get out of bed. I have a small headache.
A
Yeah.
C
You know what I mean?
A
Like, I have.
C
I take two accepted and I cry all day. Like, what do you mean? It's crazy to see.
A
It really is.
C
She's just gonna keep.
A
I think she's just gonna keep getting better and better as well. Absolutely. No, it was. It really. It was. It was good. And then, of course, like, come some kind of, like, fall into the background a little bit. Maybe it'll change. And Andy Richter. Yeah, yeah, I know, but I feel bad because every time they do. I know every time they put, like, an older man on here, it's like old man syndrome or just like, oh.
D
He'S not even that old.
C
He's not that old, but.
A
No, but like, how old do you think? At a certain point, you know, it's like the dancing, you know, 70. I'd say 60.
C
Andy Richter, 58.
A
No, I knew he was not like.
C
Older than I thought. Like, I would have said. I would have said 60s, but then I was like, he's probably older than that, actually. Wow. Sorry. Yeah, sorry. Anyway.
D
Threw me off. I was like, damn.
C
In my head, I was like, I gotta go. Older than. You know, because I was like, maybe my dad's age. My dad's like 63. So I was like, I think he might be a little bit older than my dad, but.
A
But really, who blew my socks off and who. I can't wait to continue watching Robert Irwin. Oh, my God, what a job. First of all, week one, jive. Like, not easy.
C
No, not easy.
A
And we went jive. And he has no dance background, but, my God, is he a dancer? Like, he. It is in his blood. And we should have known because Bindi was such a fucking showstopper on dance with the start of which, by the way, for all the new people.
C
Yep.
A
That are joining this season, go back and watch some of Bendy Irwin's dances because she was fantastic.
C
Bendy Irwin is.
A
And now she's a legend. Yes. And now her brother is following in her footsteps. He is such a fucking sweetheart. I can't take it. I see his tiktoks.
C
Cute.
A
He is so cute. I see his tiktoks. He posted one the other day. He's filming in the mirror and his phone is in like a. A leather dad phone case. Like one of the ones that flips open. So it's like he's filming in the mirror and it's like, open like, it's like. It's like in a utility case.
C
It's incredible.
A
Sounds like it looked like a case that could clip to his belt loop.
C
Definitely, definitely. He looks. He's an outdoor guy. He's an outdoor guy.
D
That TikTok where he used the elf sound, where she's like, why? Or no, I don't know if it was elf, but it's like, why are you smiling so much?
A
Yeah, yeah.
D
He's like, I just like to smile.
C
Yeah. Yeah. That is awesome.
A
He's literally the dog and up like. He's so.
C
It's so sweet.
A
Freaking cute. I can't take it. And what an amazing dance.
C
Did you see the commercial that aired his commercial that.
A
For the.
C
For the Bonds underwear in the middle of it with all The. All the animals around.
A
Yeah.
C
It's like, let's go, Robert Irwin.
A
Oh, my God, he was fantastic.
C
And then he runs over, he hugs Bindy. Oh, I cried my eyes out, obviously.
A
So sweet.
C
So, so great. Their mom there.
A
I know. I'm so excited for. For this season, really, because it just got me very excited. A great dances, great performances. Week one already knocking it out of the park.
C
So who else do we miss? Anybody?
A
Anybody? I mean, yeah. Like, we don't have to go through every single person, obviously, because we missed way more people that we didn't mention. Like, but, like, I think Lauren from fifth Harmony is gonna be great.
C
I think. Oh, yeah. Like, she was funny after the fact. She was like, are you nervous or whatever? What. What makes you prepared? Is it because you're a performer? And she was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
A
Dumb question.
C
By the way.
A
It's like, fit. Like, does being in fifth Harmony help doing this? Yeah, yeah, sure does.
C
Thanks for your stupid question. Hilarious. Oh, man.
A
Also, yeah, that was another thing about the new viewers complaining about, like, line of questions and, like, host questions and whatever. I'm like, you know what, guys?
C
If you did give him a break.
A
First of all, it wasn't even that long ago that we were dealing with Tyra Banks. But people don't even know what was going on when. When Tyra was hosting and Tyra wasn't even that long ago.
C
No. So Tyro is. That was her famous Tyra years.
D
You know, this is live tv.
A
Yeah, yeah. Live tv, guys. You know, it's crazy. It gets you every time. Gets you every time. So. No, but I'm pumped for Dancing with the Stars to be back and double elimination going into. I will say, these are.
C
They laid that on them. At first. They were like, elimination next week, and then they surprise. Double elimination.
A
I will reveal. Oh, duh. Hilaria. We have.
C
Oh, my God. I knew there was somebody else. Of course she was good. I'm sorry.
A
She's really good.
C
She crushed it.
A
It's just really unfortunate. She's with Gleb, I think, because there is this. There's a new. The newer generation that is watching now. I think especially after everything that happened with Brooks and Gleb last season and, like, the aftermath and everything. Like, Gleb is not very well received.
C
Nope.
A
And I think that's good.
C
Calling him smug. They're, like, watching dancing smug.
A
I was like, I think that's gonna eventually hurt them on the show for sure. Despite her being really good. She's really good. But also caring about this a lot.
C
There's the element 2 of people just not liking her. So it's like they're putting people who don't for sure. Public doesn't really like these two.
A
Yeah.
C
Put them together. How well will they do? If they do well, then their talent will overcome because they are both very talented and obviously exciting to watch. So we'll see. But Hilaria, yeah, she crushed it way more than I thought she was gonna.
A
I mean, Alec in the package before, like, really cracked me up too. I was like, he's just like, he's.
C
He's something else.
A
It was like, damn, fucking glad the audience.
D
Like, I opened TikTok while it was airing live and it was some guy backstage and I just saw behind him, it was just Alec and Robert Irwin just like having a calm.
B
What's going on?
A
It just kills me. It just kills me. Did you see the. I don't know if it was her birthday or like something that Ireland Baldwin posted this whole long. I don't know if she posted a full post on Instagram about this, but I read it and it was like so lovely of everything that she had to say about Hilaria. Like, it was really, really nice. Oh, here it is. I'll read it.
C
Yeah, okay.
A
She wrote, it's actually kind of long, so bear with me. Here she goes. I wanted to take a second to talk about my stepmom at Hilaria Baldwin. I think if people actually knew her the way I do, they would be quite surprised. This post may come out of left field since I don't post about her any family members much. I expect misinformed comments and plenty of comments about me only playing nice so I can secure my inheritance. Come on, people. I see the comments. I'm not getting an inheritance. I have seven siblings. These thoughts have been on my mind since I last visited her on the east coast. Hilaria has had a far more complex and chaotic upbringing than she lets on. And I think that's why we've maybe bonded in some ways. She didn't always feel safe and seen. Sometimes she is too loyal to a fault. She is eccentric and totally batshit crazy in a fun way. But she saved my dad's life. She turned his health around and has shown him the forgiveness and kindness that he needed. She also recognizes and nourishes the parts of my father that are the most compassionate and wonderful. She's taught him that he doesn't need to suffer inside of his own head and stay stuck in his own past. That's Never too late to admit you need help. And it's never too late to learn to be kind to yourself. Hilarious. The reason I'm able to have the close relationship with my father that I do, she is the reason I get to have siblings, such a big family that I've always wanted. She has always respected me, accepted my flaws, embraced me, and has always shown me kindness. I met her as a teenager, and I needed her as an example. I still very much look up to her now. I am so proud of her for doing Dancing with the Stars, and I cannot wait to cheer her ass on. She deserves this. And it's not my place to share the ins and outs, but this woman is a gem, and she deserves all the love.
C
I'm gonna cry.
A
That's so. Yeah.
C
Sweet.
A
Really, really nice.
C
Wow.
A
Really, really nice. Wow. Like she said, I don't think anybody saw that coming, you know?
C
Definitely not.
A
Yeah.
C
And, you know, I'm looking at Hilaria a little differently.
A
It may. That's how I felt. Wow. I felt. That's how I felt reading that. I was like, wow, that is. That is really, really sweet. And obviously, like, we know Ireland and Alec have had their ups and downs.
C
Oh, yeah. They. Good time.
A
Yeah. So for her to post that and, you know, kind of say that she's been the bridge that she's needed between her and Alec as well. Is. Is. Is really, really sweet. So. Yeah, I think.
C
I love that.
A
Here's the thing. I think if she does make it far enough on the show where we do get to see more of her and, like, her personality and maybe more of her background.
C
Yeah.
A
Perhaps it would turn the tides for them. But I, like, personally, I wish she wasn't with Gleb like that. Just.
C
Yeah, well, I'm not. I'm not really a Gleb fan to begin with.
A
I'm really not. So that.
C
Which is unfortunate.
A
Yeah. That just. That brings it down for me for sure, unfortunately. But she did do a wonderful dance.
C
Incredible. She was. She.
A
She blew me away. She was.
C
She was so good.
A
Absolutely fantastic. So happy. Yes. That is Dancing with the Stars. Okay, now it's time.
C
Okay.
A
Buckle up, folks. Yeah.
C
I'll take a deep breath.
A
Buckle up. Abercrombie is an official fashion partner of the NFL. They have gear for all the teams. Guys at whatever team you support, they got it. You can start with their Sunday crew oversized sweatshir. I think I own every single piece of Eagles gear that Abercrombie sells. It is so cute, so fashionable. The sweaters. The sweatshirts the sweatpants, the T shirts, the tank tops. It's so good. You can add a touch of team spirit to your wardrobe this season with NFL by Abercrombie. Or go to Abercrombie's newest drop, full of flowy silhouettes and feminine details that's worth swooning over. You can pair romantic pieces with the mid rise boot cut jean, which is maybe my favorite cut jean that they have so many different cuts. But I love the mid rise boot cut and maybe a new distress bomber jacket. We're getting into that time of year. Little crisp in the air. Want to bring out those cool jackets. Abercrombie is the coolest jackets. When we say denim should feel like this, we're talking about Abercrombie denim. Abercrombie is known for their denim. From their viral 90s inspired fits to their on trend statement jeans, they have it all. Abercrombie drops new arrivals every week. You can shop in the app online or in stores. The Summer I Turned Pretty finale aired on Wednesday and I think we all went in with an open mind. We're like, how is this gonna end? Where's she gonna take us? Jenny? Jenny, where are you gonna take us?
C
Yep.
A
Is it gonna be like the book? Is it not? Is it gonna feel complete? Is it not? I press play on the episode Wednesday. I wasn't in the office, so I pressed play Wednesday and I want to say like 9am that's almost identical to me. And I press play again at 10:20.
C
One hour and 17 minutes later.
A
As soon as it ended, I was like, oh my. Yep. Cried like a baby. Course I've now watched it three times. Yeah, I watched it twice Wednesday and I, we're recording Thursday. I watched again Thursday morning.
C
I, I, I have a second watch scheduled for the minute I get home today. I watch we do a we do recap on Taylor watch and so we watch it in the morning. And I was saying on Taylor watch that it's been weird the last few, not weird, but the last few episodes we've been recording on Wednesday. So we watch it in the morning to then come in and record. So I've started out my morning with the, with these like emotional roller coasters for the last weeks. Like I'm sobbing, crying in my bed, watching in my, my, my room at 9am like over belly and Conrad. Like, I, it's, it's psychotic. Start the day like that when I.
A
Tell you I was so like emotionally rattled all day, like Shay's Lounge, like crying. No, I, I was staring at my ceiling. And it was like, kind of like a little rainy and gross on Wednesday too, which did not help.
C
No, of course not.
A
And I'm like, I. I was comatose. I feel like a actual corpse on my couch staring at the ceiling. Olive's looking at me like, girlfriend, you are gonna take me out. Like, are we gonna see outside again? Like, I.
C
No. And the answer is no.
A
I was just like, what? What? I. It's the only thing I could think about. It's the only thing I have thought about now for 36 hours, I have thought of nothing else. It has consumed me entirely. I'm at the Dua Lipa concert. I'm thinking about Conrad. I mean, it has like, it's an. It's an illness, I think. Like, I'm like, I am a grown ass adult and this is a fictional character and I. I've lost it completely. Like, you know what sound has been playing in my head that has just taken over and it explains perfectly how I feel.
C
Yeah.
A
I am literally Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice looking at Conrad Fisher going, you have bewitched me, body and soul.
C
You have bewitched me, body and soul.
A
And I love you.
C
No, literally.
A
And like, I've never loved. Like, this is it. Like, every single time I'm like, I see him on the screen. And that scene in the bedroom, like, it. Like that scene in the bedroom, it's like, truly, the line just plays in my head. You have bewitched me. And like, I never want to be apart from you.
C
Just stop.
A
Cups. I dream of this. No, I. No, truly, like, I don't want you. Like a best friend spiral. I'm.
C
I have chills again. Well, and to make you feel less crazy.
A
To make you feel less.
C
Less crazy. I am a. Noted. For a long time, I was a Jeremiah apologist. I was like, listen, he's had a hard time, too. He lost his mom, too. And there are moments where I still. I'm like, come on, give him a break.
A
Yeah.
C
Other moments where I'm like, he's immature. Whatever. He needs to grow up. He needs to catch up to Conrad. I also have been noted to say that Conrad in his angsty years was also annoying.
A
Yeah.
C
And I think that there were moments. I'm now recognizing that. I think that I was just, like, afraid to let myself love Conrad so much because it's overwhelming the love. And now I'm there and it's like, scaring me.
A
How upset consuming him.
C
No, it's like, it's like, get leaf. Like, get Eight grip.
A
Like, it's too much.
C
Where I'm like, where's Con? Like, where's my Connie, baby? Where is he?
A
It's sick. I've seen nothing but edits.
C
I'll accept nothing left less than Conrad.
A
Nothing but edits of Conrad.
C
I need a doctor in San Francisco who's also poetic and will fly to Paris and show up on my doorstep right after I get a bob on my birthday.
A
I know.
C
Oh, my God, it's psychotic. What do you think of Belly's bob?
A
I was gonna say a lot of commentary on the Bob. I actually looked. Think she looked very chic. I'm not gonna love. I love the Bob.
C
I loved it multiple times throughout. I was. I was agape at how beautiful the Bob look.
A
I actually thought she looked stunning with the bob. Me too. This whole episode, Lola, like, really looks stunning, I think.
C
So beautiful, so mature. The first time that I really was like, damn, Belly's a woman.
A
Like, yes, absolutely. And I. And. And I think I have dissected the show in my head to, like, the nth degree. And I know I have criticized people who have also dissected it so much that I'm like, guys, like, let's remember it's a show and whatnot. But also at the same time, I really have come and, you know, after watching it, however, my times, I have that I just actually think that this final episode was so great. And there's some. There's some moments, sure, that maybe like, a little tweak here or there, but I thought. And of course, now that changes. Knowing that we have a. Like a movie. It really changes everything. Like, knowing that we have a movie now I'm like, this episode was perfection.
C
Completely agree. Like, top to bottom. And I still kind of thought it was perfection, But I think that I was crying at the end, not only for the. For the, like, contents of the show, but for the show being open.
A
No, 100%.
C
I was, like, really letting my. Letting it out. Like, I was wailing.
A
Kelly. I. I watched the episode.
C
I should have taken a picture of myself.
A
I watched the episode again for the third time Thursday morning as I was getting ready to come into the office. And then I pressed play on season one, episode one, because I was like, I'm not ready to let go.
C
You're not done with cousins.
A
I'm not ready to let go.
C
You're not ready to leave cousins.
A
So now. And now I'm excited to watch because there's so many callbacks, even just from the first episode.
C
I know that Are beautiful.
A
I know. I saw people making edits on Tick Tock. But, like, the pool scene again. Yes. The pool scene in episode one of, like, you know, the marijuana conversation. And Conrad's like, you memorize every little thing I've ever said. And then for Belly to say that back to him in the finale and him be like, yes. Like, so the. This version of Conrad, by the way, is just, like, the greatest thing ever, because we finally had a full episode of him being. It felt like, way more sure of himself in his determination with Belly. That I love, because for a second, when the episode started and he walks up to the doorstep and he. And she's not there, and he's sitting there, and when he. When she pulls up on the scooter with Benito, I panicked for a second because I was like, he may leave. Yeah, Like, I was gonna leave. I was like, oh, my God, he may freak out. See Lola with Lola. See Belly with this guy, and see Belly with this guy and, like, turn around and leave and. But I think that just shows, like, the journey that Comrade has been on as well, that he, like, waited out. And I felt like he said a lot of things with confidence in this episode.
C
He's very intentional in his movies.
A
Absolutely. The.
C
That scene. There were that whole scene where she shows up, up on the. On the scooter, Benito leaves, double kiss, goodbye.
A
Yeah.
C
I was so glad it was a double cheek kiss and not a kiss on the lips. In that moment, I was ready to, like, pass out. It was gonna be a kiss on the lips, but her seeing Conrad, I'm, like, sweating.
A
I didn't wear a shirt under my sweatshirt, and I'm really regretting it because now I'm just talking about the show.
C
Now you're. Now you're freaking out. Yeah, I'm sweating in that moment. Like, Belly is feeling. Is, like, so shocked to see him. I worried, too, that she'd be, like, pissed and be like, what the are you doing here? Whatever. And in that moment where she's like, I'll bring your bag upstairs. Her not being like, come upstairs.
A
Yeah.
C
In itself, I was like, oh, this is, like, this might not go well. Like, what's about to happen.
A
Absolutely. And I know, like, there was still obviously some caution from him. It's like, oh, you know, I'd like to hang out with you, but also, if you're busy, I'll leave. But, like, whatever you want to do, whatever. So there's, you know, there's that version of Conrad that's obviously still in him, but like, literally, I thought he. There was a chance that he was gonna walk right out of there.
C
Surprising someone is so risky. I is fucking hate surprising surprises. I am not a surprise person at all. I hate them. I feel like I say that enough for it to really, like, everyone needs to know that I hate surprises.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
D
Because even if it's like, a good surprise.
C
No, it's never a good surprise. I. I want to know the full scope of every situation. I don't.
D
Like, what if, like, you opened your door to your apartment and Taylor Swift is in your apartment?
C
Even that. No, I'm pissed. What am I wearing? Like, yeah, like, what do you mean?
A
Like, what's.
C
Am I in a good mood already? Like, what's the. You know what I mean? Like, no, no, there's too many. Too many moving parts. I can't.
A
I had too many variables to be surprised.
C
Yeah, I got.
A
I got.
C
Had a surprise party thrown for me once and it was so overwhelming that I, like, I, like, still get hives thinking about it.
A
Like, I.
C
Everyone that I knew, like, it was a successful. Everyone I knew in my life was there, but I didn't like that. I was like, this is too much. I don't know who to talk to. Like, I could never have a wedding for that reason. No, it's too many people. It's overwhelming. Regardless, really, really risky move. Change your flight to Paris and surprise someone that you're not really sure where you stand.
A
Yeah, absolutely. And I don't blame Belly. Like, I think I also really loved this episode for Belly's journey. I think I would have liked it a little more hashed out. Like, I do wish that she is dreaming. Like, there's no tomorrow. Yeah, she is in full.
C
Yeah.
A
Okay, There we go. She really is going like that bedroom scene. I wish was maybe 15 minutes earlier, you know, like, just so that there was like a little more. Like, I know people like, oh, my God, I. I can't believe she's like, Conrad left, like, after.
C
Right.
A
They have that conversation. It's like, oh, it feels like she pushed him away. And the, The. The battle that she has with herself, that is really like a 30 second quick inner thing that she says where she's like, you know, what's so wrong with love? Like, still being that girl.
C
Yeah.
A
I feel like she has been on this journey and there's so much inner monologue and thought that we don't really see. But you kind of saw it a little bit more in this episode. Of all the, like, blame and guilt. Yeah, that she has felt throughout all of this. And he. Even her referring to herself as the villain. Like, I think it got frustrating watching these last few episodes because you're like, just run into comrade's arms and live happily ever after. Like, what are you doing?
C
There's nothing right at this point. There's nothing standing.
A
Yes, exactly. But I do think there were so many things that we see now with her that, like, her guard was. Was so up. She had been hurt by him before, I think, especially after they did hook up.
C
Yeah.
A
I think that's when she kind of had a panic, because in previous moments with him, that's when he's pulled back, of course, you think back to, like, the motel scene, and, like, when he does show these big signs of emotion that then all of a sudden he, like, rips it back, which I think is what she was afraid of completely in the. In that time.
C
Because it's like, fool me once, once, you know, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me, that stuff. And I feel like she let herself be fooled multiple times with Conrad's mood swings and whatever when he was going through it. And it. He is a different person now. He's become a lot more mature. And he recognizes those faults he previously had in kind of withholding love from her or affection or whatever at, you know, in his mind, for her benefit. But ultimately, it's hurting her. And I think it's hard to. It's really hard to forget that in those moments, and obviously they're swept up in the. In the sex and the. The passion of it all. But then, you know, when the moment comes, it's like, now you're stuck with me forever. It's like you start thinking, like, oh, my God, how did I let myself fall exactly into the pattern that I've spent the last year and a half or whatever trying to pull myself out of exactly how this has happened, because.
A
I think she had a panic that, like, I have tried to build this whole nother life for myself in Paris, and look how far I've come. And now is this technically, like, regressing? Like, it's not good?
C
Yeah.
A
And she definitely has that panic. But I think at the same time, like, seeing that picture of herself when she was younger, like, there's nothing wrong with it. I think it came to a place of belly, being able to accept herself and forgive herself for everything that happened and be like, you know what this is? This is the guy that I love, and I should embrace this. And I have grown up and changed, and I do Think. I do think his line, really. The dialogue of that scene, I thought was so good.
C
Unbelievable.
A
And I thought, Jen, like, that was such a necessary.
C
I have some of his quotes.
A
Yeah, I know. It was such a necessary conversation for them to have, because I think Belly was also able to let out, like, every insecurity she's had when it's come to her relationship with Conrad, where it's like, I'm gonna lay this all out on the table right now, because I am. I have worried about this, and, like, I need to make sure that all of these feelings, like, I want to get it all out on the table here of, you know, if this happened. What if this? What if that? What if that? And, like, I think that was, like, every single wall that she put up or all those what ifs? And, like, she had to try and do that to knock it down. And when Comrade is like, I. What are you gonna try and lay in the mic?
C
She really is just like.
A
Like, she's. So. What are you guys.
C
Fran. I'm too distracted. Olive's too cute. Look how. Look at her looking right in your eyes.
A
She does. She stares into your soul. When she's also like. She's like, I watched that episode three times too.
C
Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's like, excuse me, I actually have an opinion.
A
Excuse me, I have something to say because I watched that episode three times as well. When Kara's like, I've changed everything. Like, I've changed everything about myself.
C
I've changed everything about myself. And the one thing that doesn't change is that I love you.
A
Which I think was such an impactful line as well, because I think Belly needed to hear that too, because she has also tried to change everything about herself to not love him.
C
Exactly. And it's like he says, too. He says, if I met you for the first time tonight, I'd love you. Like, and. Because she questions his questions the. And I think. Think validly. So I don't know if I'm saying that the right way. Yeah, validly. So to question, like, are we together because your mom got sick? Are we together because your mom, you know, said we were getting married when we were kids?
A
Let's break down all these what ifs? And if this didn't happen, if this didn't happen, like, at the bare bones of it, how do we. How do we really feel about each other?
C
Right? But it's like, those things did happen.
A
So it's part of.
C
You know, it's part of their story. Whether, however, that's interpreted But I. I think that, like, she. In. In this time that she's been creating this new life and trying to get a grip on a new reality and step away from, like, you know, Conrad and Jeremiah and cousins and everything is just like her whole. Everything in her brain, like she had nothing else and no other friends and no other. Like, we talk all the time about. In college, she had. She had Taylor and her roommate.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
C
And it's like, that's. That's bizarre.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
C
And she's just that kind of person. And I feel like she now. She now has this new life and she's doing all this stuff or whatever, and she's almost trained herself to be like, you were a stupid kid. This is why you thought those things. And this is why he felt like he thought he thought those things.
A
And really, when you're like, you have. Deep down, you have really thought you were the villain in the. In the. In the story, in the whole thing. And shout out Belly's French friends, because they didn't hold back either. And I loved it. I love that dinner scene. I love them being like, why the are you here? What are your intentions? Loved every question that they asked when.
C
They were immediately talking shit in French, like, behind his back.
A
Amazing. Loved him being like. Loved his line back at Bonito of, you know, I'll always be the guy who taught her how to ride back. I was like, yeah, stand up for yourself.
C
Him picking up on. On how they all called her Isabelle and calling her Isabelle, too. And then later, so genuinely asking, like, do you want me to call you Isabel? Like, not even in a way of. Not even, like, a ribbing way. Like, genuinely, like, would you prefer that?
A
Now? I was like, like, and I've been saying it all season. But the emotion that he carries on his face, like, the story that he tells with just his face, like, truly, people, I know that this. I could be laughed at for this. Chris Briney is a revelation. Like, I. Mark my words. Mark my words now.
C
Yeah.
A
Chris Briney is going to have an incredible acting career. Like, the next few days that he does, I think are going to just blow people away, because I am so blown away by every little thing that he does in this show when it comes to, like, little glances or facial expressions or all these things that, like, tell such a story in just one look. He's so good at it.
C
Yeah.
A
And he's so good at the, you know, the emotion in his voice. And when he says, you don't want me anymore.
C
No.
A
Like, I Started sobbing, you know, and immediate songs. Oh, my God. Like, the tears in his eyes and the way he says it. I'm just like, he's so good in this scene, so I'm so good. I mean, the whole dinner was visually very gorgeous, of course.
C
So chic. So, like, French.
A
So chic.
C
Oh, I loved it.
A
The birthday cake. Like, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous cake.
C
But then the moment, Fran and I. And before, when you started this, I knew you were gonna talk about this cake. Yeah. When they bring it over and she's looking across the cake through the candles at the happiest man I've ever seen in my life, it's like, what could you possibly wish for more than this?
A
It really goes. It really goes into what I just said about how amazing his facial expressions. And, like, that part of just the physical acting that he does is so cute. It was, like, so 16 candles in the best way possible.
C
Extremely.
A
And it was just like, the light from the candles, it was so well lit. His face, her face. It was gorgeous. Gorgeous.
C
Absolutely gorgeous. And just. Just a. An emotional moment. I was crying. I was. It was emotional. It was sweet. It was. And you're right, that facial acting and. And the lighting and. Oh, my God. I said this on. On our recap, but I'm not a. I'm not necessarily a Paris fan. Like, I've never been the girl that, like, you. You would think, yeah, because I'm basic. But, like, I've. I've never been the girl that's like, I want to go to Go to Paris and fall in love. Like, I've never felt that about Paris, and I've been now a couple of times, and I felt. I'm like, yeah, okay, it's a good time, but I'm not, like, you know, loving it. Whatever. Belly and Conrad in Paris and these moments with her, with her friends and her, like, living her life or whatever in Paris has made me understand that.
A
Yeah.
C
I finally. I'm like, oh, yeah, no, I get it. I want that.
A
Yeah. No, I, like, actually want to frame that freeze shot of the cake and his face and, like, put it in my apartment or something.
C
Yeah.
A
I actually had a thought of the. All the Christmas in Paris photos. I was like, this, like, might have to be part of my Christmas decor.
C
Even those are like.
A
Like, frame those pictures.
C
Even those were so sweet like that. And that was like. You could. Could see their. Their, like, childlike wonder that the, like. Yeah. It's just.
A
They're just never. The thing is, there will just never be enough of them.
C
No, you know, there's never be enough. No.
A
I think I'm gonna have to go home and watch again. Like I of course like it. I don't know what to do. I will myself.
C
It's a master class. And it's finally. And. And there's a point where, you know, they're doing the sightseeing thing, they're walking around. Belly's like, let me take you to my special spot. They go up on the roof. Whatever he's talking about, he's comparing Paris to the human body. Hilarious. And, and she's like, you for looked and sounded like 10 year old you. And in that moment I'm like, that is so true. Like, finally, the Conrad that we're seeing is like the Conrad from the flashbacks of when they were kids. Because I feel like up until this point we've only really known moody Conrad, heartbroken Conrad, like, you know, like we obviously know him to be. Have more layers than that.
A
Yeah.
C
But that's what's been at the forefront. And so to finally kind of see him like genuinely happy and like doing well and excited to see Belly and like going after something he wants. And it's, it's so attractive.
A
Like, and it's.
C
I'm hook, line and sinker, you know, Like I. You got me. You got me. Bewitched.
A
Bewitched.
C
Absolutely.
A
Body and soul.
C
Body and soul.
A
You have bewitched me. Body and soul. It's. It's. It's all I feel when I, when I. When I think about him. But no, the whole thing was incredible. I mean, we really don't have to break like this. The walking home. The. The song dress starts playing like, oh my God.
C
Dress coming on. I don't know what I thought. Obviously, you know, Taylor stuff. We. We've done it 22nd six times Taylor Swift songs have played in the series as a total. And I knew there was gonna be a Taylor Swift song in the finale. I didn't even go and guess what it would be because it's been all over the map. And so far, as far as I. From where I sit, every song that's been used in the show has been perfect. With the exception of. Actually, no, not even an exception. I think that when they played you're losing me when she finds out that Jeremiah cheated on.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
C
In that moment, like they started playing it a little too early. Like there was something about the timing of that one. That was the only one that I have a complaint about the whole time, you know, whatever was going to be used we knew there was gonna be something. There's Taylor Swift, Scott. She's. She's like. Is she an executive producer?
A
Like, the amount of songs, you know, I don't know. How can they afford the budget?
C
Like, there's a lot of questions.
A
No, but it's a lot of songs that they've used and I really expect.
C
Dress.
A
They've used them perfectly. Like, they really, I think, have used them perfectly. Yes. Dress. What? Like, it was just.
C
It was unexpected and it being like my. My top two favorite song on Reputation is just like. It was too. It was too good. It was too perfect for that moment. Especially coming on the heels of that dinner where there are secret moments in a crowded room. Like, it just. There are so many.
A
Everything stops.
C
There's so many parallels. And say my name and everything just stops. And them stopping the music. Stopping the music for Conrad to be like, I've dreamt of this, you. And then I don't want you like a best friend. Like, it's just Emmys, Emmys all around. Holy Christ.
A
Absolute masterpiece. The tik toks of girls in bars watching this and like, screaming their faces off. I love. Because then of course, like, you know, even the. The moment when they're on the stairs and you're like, this is getting sexual. I know there's been some people who are like, oh, my younger con's hand up. No, it's just like too much. I'm going to start giggling.
C
No, it's so sexy.
A
Like, everyone about it.
C
They have such good, good chemistry.
A
They have amazing chemistry. They have amazing chemistry.
C
Excellent. Amazing chemistry. Shouts to Lola Tongue as well, because I think that she, as an actress throughout this entire series has progressed so far. But the last few episodes were bellies, like, on this journey of self discovery. Lola has brought such life to it and such a. Like, it's. It's such a different tone than how Belly is, you know, And I just think that she. She really hit it out of the park too. Like, just fantastic job by her.
A
I know. And I think really, like I said before, it was such a battle for Belly of, like, of do, like, do I want to cross back into this. Here's my life here. I've done all this. I've done all these things. I've changed. I've changed all these things. But like his line said, I really think that was an impactful thing of him saying that too.
C
Yeah, totally.
A
It kills me. Absolutely kills me. I want to talk about everybody else because, yeah, they do kind of, you know, they.
C
Oh, yeah, everybody Else's.
A
They do wrap it up, obviously, for everyone. I saw some criticism of, like, oh, what is fucking Jeremiah's all of a sudden a hot tick tock chef now. Like, what's going on? But, yeah, you kind of forget these, like, little things of the story because you're so focused on Belly and Conrad. But, like, even just from watching episode one and two of season one again.
C
Yeah.
A
I mean, Jeremiah is trying to, like, poach a perfect egg. Like, he's talking about the finger sandwiches at the debutante at the Deb luncheon.
C
Like, he.
A
It's all of it. All of it is there. Like, little pieces are laid out. But I actually, like, I loved watching Jeremiah in this episode. It's another person that I think, like, went through all his shit and feels like he's coming out the other side of it, like, becoming more comfortable in himself. I love Denise kind of calling him out of being like, everyone else isn't obsessed with Conrad. Like, you're obsessed with him.
C
Like, loved that too, Fran. And he needed to hear that. Yeah. Like, no one else. It's crazy that no one else has said that to him. Like, he's so focused on this, like, fake rivalry that he came up with. And I'm glad that Denise called it out. I have done such a switch on Denise. I know Denise at first, and I know same.
A
I. I love Denise, too. The one thing I. I. The one thing which is just a nitpicky thing on me is just the, like, obviously there were feelings there, but when she's like, way to go, dude. I'm like, don't call him.
C
Yeah, there's a little bit of cheese there. She's a little corny, but.
A
Yeah, but he. But she's good for him. I thought that was really. I thought that was very sweet. I did.
C
I did kind of wish that they would stay friends, because I really do. Like, I don't know. I feel like Jeremiah as a character needs a female friendship, that he's, like, someone he's not having sex with.
A
Right.
C
You know, So I kind of liked that they were friends. And, like, when. When they were in the apartment after he couldn't go into Christmas and he's got his sad sweatpants on or whatever. They were having that moment, and he was like, we're really good friends. Huh? And in that. That moment, it was like, oh, there's definitely a vibe here.
A
Yeah.
C
But I hope they stay friends. Although I did know based on. I. I didn't read the books. I'm gonna read them now. That the series is over. But I knew that people were saying that they get together. Right. There's like a moment where they get together.
A
Denise doesn't exist.
C
No. I thought that people say that Denise, like, and Jeremiah get together randomly, but.
A
I don't think Denise is, like, not in the books.
C
Oh, no, Someone said that. I have no idea. But someone said that, that she, like, brings Jeremiah, like, brings Denise as like a guest or something. I don't know. I. I haven't read the book, so I don't know. But regardless, I had my ear up for them getting together, and I was just kind of hoping that that didn't happen. And I. I walk it back a little bit though, because I do think that it's nice.
A
There's no Denise.
C
Then I wonder if anything, the book.
A
The book ends, Jeremiah, like, has a date at the wedding.
C
Right.
A
But it's not the same.
C
That was Denise. Oh, maybe it was like a joke. Maybe somebody's gonna show up with Denise at the wedding.
A
Yeah. Maybe they were just saying, like, oh, Denise could be that.
C
That Got it.
A
Person got it.
C
Got it. Maybe. Well, yeah, so. But yes, I do think that they, that they are good for each other. And I think that she has been a support for him while he's like, kind of finding himself and making his own way and. And, you know, just sorting himself out.
A
Yeah.
C
And I do think that she was that, like, positive female friendship while he needed it. Like, you know, and he didn't become codependent with her. Like, I feel like the, you know, obviously he's got. He's got this issue because his mother passed away and he immediately latched onto Belly. That became a weird codependent relationship that he was like, he didn't grieve his mother. He just kind of turned Belly into his mother. And so it was weird displacement, whatever. But I think maybe he's finally passed that.

What do we think about the Adam stuff?
A
Adam, Let me tell you, I fucking love Adam.
C
He's a comedian. I think Adam is funny.
A
Adam is so funny because he's so ridiculous. He's a ridiculous character. Everything about him is ridiculous.
C
Yep.
A
Him showing up with the fucking champagne to every event is actually like, I love it. A hilarious bit. Yes. Like, it's like everything. He's like, I brought the champagne. Even in the, like, last scene when they're all around the table and he's like, let want me to open a bottle? Like, it's so funny. And he says the most ridiculous things. His dialogue is out of this world.
C
I don't know.
A
Like, when that actor is reading, like, what he has to say, I'd be like, are you serious? When he is talking about the singles cruise, he's like, oh, I hear it's a 247 all you can eat fuck fest.
C
He was like, he does say that, right?
A
Yes, I said it.
C
And I was like, did he call it a fuck fest? I couldn't remember. That's insane.
A
And then 247 or you can eat fuck fest.
C
Oh, Laurel, you got to get out there in a little crochet two piece, right?
A
He says he was like, your little. Your hot bod and a little two piece.
C
I said, is Adam drunk? Adam had to have been drunk in that moment. And John sitting there like, okay, I guess you're just hitting on my wife. Wife. Ex wife.
A
I literally just snorted because it's so ridiculous.
C
No, it's too good.
A
Every single thing is so ridiculous. He's a cartoon character.
C
He left him. Kaylee's.
A
Ah, she left. But I'm ready to go. I'm ready to go on this 247 all you can eat fest cruise. I'm like, oh, my God, you're a grown ass man. Like, what is happening? It is that really.
C
What are you guys. Oh, you're not saying, oh, that means you're not getting laid.
A
Yeah. I'm like, Adam is driving. Seriously.
C
That's just what's going on.
A
It really is. I like, you know, Taylor and Steven, happy for them, happy for them. Move to San Francisco. Maybe they're all going to move to San Francisco at this point. The group's all going to move to San Francisco.
C
We've got Denise and Steven going for work. Taylor's going to go now. Jeremiah's going to go. We know it. Conrad's already there. Belly's going to be there. So maybe the movie will be set in San Francisco.
A
I. Yeah, right. I was hoping my, my hope for the finale was really less, like even less seeing like Jeremiah and, and Belly like see each other again. But I really wanted to see like Laurel and Belly have a moment. Like I just thought that there could have been like a beautiful mother daughter moment that we missed in this, in this scenario. And of course, like there are big things that we missed.
C
Yeah.
A
And that come from the book. Whether that's the wedding or the, you know, there are parts that come with that. Right. So like Savannah Susanna's letter.
C
Yeah.
A
To Belly and like having that moment and all those things that we didn't fully get where of course, like that was my first thought after fin. I was like, oh, you know, I, I do think that was a beautiful way to wrap it up. But at the same time, like I would have loved if they could have all seen each other again or had some moment.
C
But you know, now everybody was like in the house when they show up at the custom House at the end. I was hoping that like everybody was right.
A
Right. Right. But even if they did that, it's like, like that would have felt weird. Cuz it's like, yeah, true. You. They need to, they're just going to walk in and everyone's like going to be cool. It's like, well, what happened?
C
They also were kind of ambiguous on the timeline of that. Like she, they were, they said like we didn't go back to cousins that summer, but we went back eventually.
A
She's like, yeah, but eventually I did.
C
She didn't say like next year. Like it could be nos.
A
Yeah, exactly. It could have been, could have been years down the line. So yeah, while I was staring at the ceiling for hours, they did announced that they are going to make a movie. Jenny is writing it right now, apparently. They were on the Today show Thursday morning. It was Jenny, Lola, Chris and Gavin were on the Today show and Jenny said they have a, a draft done but they haven't made it yet. They were really Trying to pull out some sort of timeline from them, like in 2026, 2027. And Jenny was like, well, not next year. Like, we have to make it it. I know. People, like, people were really digging into the semantics of that because of the, like, Christmas in Paris album.
C
Yes.
A
That plays at the end. So they were like, oh, maybe it's going to be, like, something around Christmas time. It'll come out in December. They're like, well, if it comes out December 2025, like, that's this year. It's not next year. But I'm like, guys, I don't. They haven't made a single.
C
No. The script's not even final.
A
I know. Because they were like, oh, maybe they secretly filmed it already. I'm like, I don't think they did. I don't think so. Unfortunately, we have a ways to go, which alarms me even more for my state of the fact that I will be even older.
C
Yeah.
A
Caring about this so much at that point.
C
Yeah. Fran, let me. Let me deliver a harsh reality to you. You think you're gonna be older. Okay. By the time this movie comes out, I'm probably gonna be, like, 37. Fran. Ew. I'm about to be 35. Ew. That's disgusting in itself. Think about this. That movie comes out in two years. Years.
A
That's.
C
I'm almost 40. I'm almost 40. Being like, our Belly. I can't wait for Belly and Conrad's wedding.
A
No, no. Look, I every.
C
Get a grip.
A
All the tiktoks have really been cracking me up of girl, you know, women being like, I'm a mother of three kids, like, coming home, like, thinking, like, obsessing about this show.
C
Yeah.
A
And we all feel it. We all feel it's universal feeling right now, guys. It really. It really, really is.
C
It's just a fun, you know, and.
A
I'm excited for a movie. It'll be sweet.
C
I'm.
A
So Jenny said, there she goes. She won't say because Savannah asked her on the Today show. Like, we didn't see the wedding in the book. Well, we see the wedding in the movie. She's like, oh, you know, there's, like. There's a big milestone for Belly that I'd love to show. It's like, hopefully that's. Hopefully that's what it is. Please, God. I mean, I literally think she may have been bullied into doing this movie because everybody. It's. Lola did say, like, oh, we've known about the movie for, like, a little bit of time now. It's fun that, like, it's been announced, but really everybody was screaming from the rooftops of, like, wanting the show to end with the wedding.
C
Yeah.
A
And obviously the last episode doesn't end that way. Even though now I go back to thinking that that was such a great. It was so good way to end the series.
C
I was glad, though, that it wasn't like, I know everybody's talking about the wedding, whatever. I'm glad that it wasn't a wedding because I still need to wrap my head around the fact that like. Like, they just. Like, she just was about to have a wedding with Jeremiah. Like, there needs to be more space between.
A
It's so much more realistic because we. We do remember, like, these are YA novels that were written a decent amount of time ago that, like, things have changed. I think Jenny's recognized that, and I think also we would have if all of a sudden, like, Kamara was in Paris and they were reconciling. They were having those conversations. Like, the conversations that they had were so important. I love getting to see them have those conversations. And we would have maybe lost that, and then things would have been rushed. And then all of a sudden, it's like, Belly's walking down the aisle, and you're like, wait, what? Because people's complaints with the book.
C
Yeah.
A
Was that the epilogue was really rushed. Yeah. That's like, everyone was like, whoa, the book ended. And then all of a sudden, it's like, Belly and Conrad are married. Yeah, that's. People didn't like that.
C
That's not the love story. Like, I want to be. So I think.
A
Yeah, I actually think this is a perfect setup.
C
No, I totally agree. I think what people really, like, kind of feel for this and why people feel for it so much is that it's the way that this love story is told is captivating. And, like, you want to see what happens to the love story. You want the intricacies. You want the. The small conversations, the clearing up of all the miscommunications over years and years of time. The fact that they've been friends for so many years. Like, there are so many layers to it that people can really, like, dive into it. And I feel like that's why, like, we're seeing.
A
It's.
C
It's similar to, you know, I compare everything to Taylor Swift. It's like it's watching a fairy tale play out. Like, you. They're getting everything they wanted.
A
Yeah.
C
No one ever gets everything they want. So watching these people watching it work out is just nice. And it's just. It's lovely to see. It feels good to watch. It feels emotional and. And you. You just. You want to root for these people. Yeah, I love it.
A
Absolutely. And I, I feel you. I. I feel all you ladies out there on so many levels of, like, you know, I think people watch a show or a movie, and it's like they. They fall in love with the character, but then they fall in love with the actor. And it's like all these things where I'm like, no, really, it's the character.
C
It's like, my God, big time.
A
It's the character.
D
When he said, I'm always be the guy who taught you how to ride a bike, that was the first time I ever was like, wow, Conrad actually.
A
Has, like, yeah, like, fucking game, Conrad.
D
Yeah.
C
Okay. That's game.
A
Yeah. Oh, God. Dumois posted that apparently he proposed to his girlfriend, IRL Chris Briney.
C
It's like, yeah, you got to lock that shit up, girl.
A
Yeah. Yeah. Like, good. No, it's beautiful. I actually think Chris has, like, really managed this all very well because him and his girlfriend are really adorable and. And they seem to be, like, so supportive of each other. And I also think he's, like, so respectful when it comes to, like, doing press and doing all these things because they have such. It's such a love story that they're portraying. And a lot of times, like, the actors really sell that on carpets or press and all these things. And he has always kind of like, been very respectful in that. In that manner.
C
They're very much like, they, they act more like, like, friends. They totally do, like, totally the young versions of themselves versus, like, the romantic versions.
A
100 but yeah, I mean, I don't know what I, I, I'm watching this show from the beginning again, and I don't know. And I may just. I might just be on an endless cycle until the movie comes out where, like, season three, episode 11 plays. I press play on season one, episode one, and then just let it go until we get. I just. 20, 27 seems so far.
C
It's so far away. You know what?
A
Far away.
C
You know what? Also, it's making me think of. It's very reminiscent of, like, Sex in the City movie when. When that finally came out, because it.
A
Was like, people working.
C
Honestly, Lizzie McGuire also kind of works. Like, that does totally. Is like, guess What?
A
The Lizzie McGuire Movie slaps, and so.
C
Does Sex and City 1.
A
One of my favorite movies of all time. Like, just.
C
And. And it's so I think, to expect, like, There will be a storyline. All of our favorites will be there. It's going to be fun. Nostalgia, but it's not, you know, it'll be deep. It'll be impactful, but it's not going to be like. It'll be like one big, long episode. But it's a movie, you know, and that's how Sex and City movie felt to me, so. And honestly, Lizzie, Fly movie as well.
A
That song Scott street is like, already. Makes me cry already. And now anytime I hear it, I think I'm gonna automatically burst into tears. I'm gonna lose myself. I hear the song, I'm gonna go, Conrad. Picture that, like, walking out of the house. It's been in a loop, truly. With all the flowers bloom at cousins. I Googled. I googled, like, can you rent that house?
C
Can you?
A
No, apparently it's private.
C
It's in Wilmington, right?
A
Yeah. Apparently privately owned. It's on a golf course in a. Damn it.
C
You know what's funny is I never realized. It's so annoying. I'll ask my. One of my besties.
A
I know. I was like, is this house on Airbnb for real?
C
I mean, I wish. God, house is beautiful. But I. I don't think I ever realized in my head, like, cousins, the house was just, like, on an island with nobody around. And when they zoom out further than usual, you see, like, the next door neighbor is right there. And I'm like, what's your story? Yeah, what's going on in that house next door to this, like, all this drama happening at this cousin's house. Like, I didn't realize the neighbor was literally feet away.
A
God, it's just really. And, like, watching from the beginning, too, I think you will see, like, so many more connections to. To what was going on in this. In this last season. And yeah, I'm. I'm happy they're doing a movie because I do think that that is the fan service that is everybody wants of, like, oh, my God. A wedding special. Something to really. It better be. I know. It will be. It will be. It literally has.
C
We need to see that girl in a dress. In a real dress. It's not from, like, the, you know, like, whatever store.
A
I think I could, like. I know I'm just being repetitive now of, like, saying that I'll watch that. That end scene over and over for the rest of time, but I. But I really will. And I will. And I thought it was fantastic. I really did.
C
So, you know, it's so crazy. I was so. All the pictures of them like, at the premiere in Paris came out, and they all look so chic, like, beyond one of the. One of the. Or, yeah. This picture specifically.
A
Uhhuh.
C
And I was dying because Suzanne is in it.
A
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
C
And I. I, at first was like.
A
Because I'm like, no. I saw so many people saying that. They were like, holy. Forgot Suzanne about dead. Yeah, I know. Yeah. Which is so crazy. I know. It is, like, crazy. But I love.
C
I mean, she's always in flashbacks and stuff. If there's. If there's a Susanna flashback in the show, it's automatic tears for me. Like, I can't process. Like, I know even. Not this episode, but episode 10 where they're talking about. They're talking with Belly about how, like, she won't travel, or she's like, I know what I like, or whatever. And that scene with Susanna in it, I just, you know, I just love it. I just love. I love her relationship with Belly. I love her relationship with Laurel. And I hope that there are, in the movie, plenty of flashbacks and stuff. I hope Susanna, like, can make her way into it.
A
Oh, God. I might have to, like, get. I might need to get, like, a infinity sign tattoo. And every time someone asks me, like, oh, is that just, like. Like, the white girl tattoo of getting an infinity sign? I'm going to say, no, it's for Belly and it's me.
C
It's me, Belly and coffee for infinity.
A
Biggest white girl thing you could ever do. Anyway.
C
It totally is. Yeah.
A
Yeah. When he touches the necklace before they kiss on the train.
C
No. Stop.
A
When she turns it around. We didn't even talk about that.
C
No.
A
When she puts the necklace on and turns it around.
C
No. Sick.
A
I saw far too many people also complaining about, like, the logistics of this. I'm like, I don't care.
C
Shut up. Shut up.
A
How'd she pay the cab? She doesn't have anything with her. How'd she even get on the train? I don't care.
D
She did just walk directly onto a train.
C
Yeah.
A
Which, by the way, moving, by the way, a lot of. A lot of train stations. You do think about when you get on the Amtrak at Penn Station.
C
Yeah.
A
They don't check your ticket till you're on the train and it's moving exactly post. Like, I mean, am I wrong? Am I wrong?
C
It's completely correct. I've shown up all aboard.
D
Yeah.
A
Think about when we get on the Amtrak. You show the ticket when you're sitting.
D
In the seat, which is a crazy thing that they do that, like, because if you don't have a ticket, then what do they like?
C
They kick you off the next stop.
A
Yeah. They say get off the trip, but.
D
Then you get a free stop. Yeah.
C
And people do that.
A
I feel like every time I've taken a train, like, any train in Europe, it's been the same way, too.
C
Yeah.
A
It's like. You're like. You walk, they check your ticket on your own. I don't care how she got where she got. She ran after him. Thank fucking God she did. Out of that. We got out of the woods, which was amazing. But no, when she turned that. When she turned that necklace around, like, it was crazy. By the way, that necklace has stayed in great shape.
C
Yeah, it really has. Well, it's been. It's been wrapped around Junior Mint's neck for. For five years.
A
But he, like, literally put, like, one finger on it.
C
I was like, oh, no, it's too much. That moment and also the. The moment where they're, like, about to hook up and they're getting undressed, and she goes to take her dress off, and he goes, no, I want to do it. I was like, oh, my God. There's so many.
A
Like, those are the little things, you know?
C
No, literally, like, those are the things, though, where it's like, you don. Think that that is, like, an important thing, but I gasped. Like, gasped at that. And there just. Oh, my God.
A
It rocked my world. Rocked my world. I rocked my world. It rocked my world.
C
It's just so.
A
It rocks.
C
So.
A
No, they have Chris Brownie doing Quinn is, which is like. Like audio.
C
I'm a big Quinn fan.
A
Yeah, it's. It's great. And so they got Chris to do one, which was fantastic.
C
It's called, like. It's called, like. Like, something Harbor.
A
Yeah. Yeah, it is. I'm sure everyone's gonna be signing up for that, like, really smart move by them getting him. Oh, the last thing I wanted to.
C
Say was I love Carolyn Spiegel.
A
Yeah, yeah.
C
She started that company. I love her on the.
A
On the Today show.
C
Hidden Harbor.
A
Hidden Harbor.
C
I'm downloading it available this Friday.
A
Yeah, Friday.
C
Today. As you're. When you're done listening to us, go listen.
A
I think Friday at, like. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
C
Sexy stories.
A
Tell me sexy story. I'm gonna press play on that immediately.
C
Yeah.
A
Savannah. Sorry, this is the last thing I wanted to mention. Savannah Guthrie on the Today Show. Literally, like, she asked Gavin a question about, you know, what's it been like with online noise and, like, everybody connecting into the character and all these things. Things and literally called him Jeremiah when she has a question.
C
I feel bad for Gavin. I. There's like a part.
A
She's like, I'm so sorry, Gavin. She's like this prime example. I literally just called you Jeremiah. It's.
C
It is crazy. But like, And I. And I feel bad for Gavin. Like, I do think that people especially because we feel so emotionally connected to these characters, like, they can't see he's getting that bad. Like, you know, people are angry at Gavin and it's like, no, you're mad at Jeremiah the character.
A
Do you think any part of them is like. Like, we have to do a movie now?
C
Yes, I think for Gavin. Yeah.
A
I think Gavin definitely.
C
I think Chris Briney is like, I don't know though. Like, I don't know. Maybe he's just. He's ready for the precipice of his, like, big, big career. You know, people are saying he's like, Leo. He's the new Leo. People are saying, yeah, crazy. Crazy. You know, And I mean that.
A
Again, I think a lot of that was coming from like the aesthetic of him. For sure. 100.
C
You could drop him into Titan.
A
100. But I, I mean, I've already co signed that. I think. I think he's gonna have an absolutely amazing career for sure.
C
But I think that they're tired.
A
Yeah. I mean, I. I'm sure their agents are gonna get like, Amazon's gonna have to pay them the big bucks and they deserve it because this show has brought in like the viewership is insane. Like, the numbers are insane of the people. How many people are watching this show? So, like, they're. I'm sure their agents are gonna be like, you better pay them the big bucks for this movie. And if the. And I'm sure they'll get it because.
C
Do you think it's the number one show on Amazon has to be right? Like, like, like ship money wise. Maybe not ever.
A
Yeah.
C
But I think for. For right now trying to think other shows on Amazon. The Boys is on Amazon. Right. That did pretty well.
A
Some right turn. Pretty. Season three garnered 25 million global viewers within its first seven days of the release, becoming the number one show on Prime Video in over 120 countries. This marked a 40 viewership increase from the season two premiere and tripling of the season one viewership within the first seven days.
C
Wow.
A
Establishing it as one of the most watched returning seasons on Prime Video.
C
Right.
A
Yeah.
C
I wonder if it will. You know, here's. Here's.
A
I don't know if we have Anything other, like, that's like the number that it says. It's like just like the premiere.
C
Here's another question. Do you think that there's any world where we see this whole cast and crew at the Emmys next year because it's too late.
A
Any world as nominees?
C
Yeah. No, Like a Chris Briney.
A
I mean, I wish I would.
C
I would die too.
A
Because he deserves it, right? He deserves it.
C
He really does.
A
But, like, I'd be shocked because I feel like they, you know, they don't take those shows. Yeah, they don't.
C
I wish they would. Especially this one.
A
Especially this one. Yeah.
C
So awards all around.
A
Yeah, either that or, you know, I'm gonna be listening to the audiobook. I probably am going to start the books from the beginning again. They have the audiobooks. Lola and Chris do the audiobooks. So probably start listening to that.
C
No way. Really? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Sign me the up. You know, I love an audiobook. I was gonna read the books. For real. For real.
A
But no, no, I. I mean, I talked about it on the show already, but they. Like after episode eight or whatever it was eight or nine. Like, I. I think it was after episode eight, I was like, I need. Like, I'm gonna listen, I'm gonna pick up from the audiobook. Yeah, yeah, that. So the summer I. Yeah, the summer I Turned Pretty. The first one is narrated by Lola.
C
Okay.
A
And then we'll always have Summer is. Is Lola and Chris. And it's not Summer without you. Oh, it's not summer without you is Lola and Gavin.
C
Right. Okay.
A
And then this last one is in it.
C
Okay.
A
So the second book.
C
Yeah.
A
Lola and Gavin.
C
Third, Lola and Chris. Yeah. Well, I can't wait.
A
So if anybody else is trying to fill the tractor trailer size void in your heart, like, I just fill it.
C
Up with the audiobooks and. Wow. By the way, Lola staying in, staying employed. She's booked and busy as she is. Good for her.
A
Absolutely is.
C
I love it.
A
All right, that wraps it up. Because really now, I mean, I'm just rambling now about the show. So. Yeah, now just. Yeah, that wraps it up. On the final episode of the Summer I Turn Pretty. My God, was it a journey? And I'm sad We're done talking about it. Like, I really am sad. We're done talking about it. It's been so much fun, like, living through this time with everybody.
C
Totally. I love the weekly release also.
A
Yeah, absolutely. It's been really fun to recap and do it all. So we'll update you guys on Whenever we find out when this movie is coming out. Because not to put any pressure on you, Jenny, but get the. Get.
C
Get to work.
A
Get to work. I need this cast to clear their schedules.
C
Yeah.
A
Like, this time, I don't care what projects you've already signed on for, move them around. We need the filming to start asap. Like, we strike while the iron's hot here, folks.
C
Yep. Gotta do it, y'. All.
A
Although it would be nice if they do seem a little bit older.
C
Yeah, that's true.
A
That's like the other side of it.
C
Yeah.
A
Like, if they do, if it sometime has passed and like, they're a little bit older and it's like they're older in the movie and it makes sense of, like, them getting married, all these things. That's nice too. But also, like, I can't wait that long. So, though.
C
Yeah, no, like 2027 is the absolute longest I can wait. Yeah, like, it will not.
A
And that is, by the way, even that feels like torture.

If it has to be 2027, make it January.
A
Yeah, physical. I know. Well, they're gonna wait for summer.

Do you think it'll be in theaters?

No, I think it'll be a big Amazon. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.

All right, guys, I have my Truly in hand, ready to head into the weekend. But Truly is some amazing news right now. They are teaming up with reality star Janae Craig. You guys know we just talked to Janae about it. We had so much fun with her. With her. Her time in the villa was crazy.

So she is introducing the no Shade Just tea, an exclusive hard seltzer brewed by Truly just for Janae and Lucky fans. The no Shade Just Tea features a return of the beloved raspberry iced tea flavor that combines refreshing hard seltzer with real brewed tea and juicy raspberry flavor to make no Shade Just tea. Crisp, bubbly and light. Absolutely delicious. Love an iced tea. This Truly is great. It's such a good pair of. The special pack includes four 16 ounce cans and will be sold to lucky fans on GiveThemBeer.com beginning September 17th through multiple drops while supplies last. So set your alarms, because this tea won't steep for long. All right, welcome back. Welcome back to another game of beat Rhea and Fran.

D
Yeah.
C
Yeah. That's absurd.
A
It is. It actually is. Okay. But we're gonna get into Trivia. It is 15 questions. If you get the question right, you get the point. If you get it wrong, the team can steal the point. Whoever has the most points at the end wins. To determine who goes first, Noah's gonna give us a movie. We're gonna guess the Rotten tomatoes critic score of that movie. Whoever is closest will go first. We will get our own individual guesses, and we'll alternate between teams for guessing. So, Noah, what is today's movie?

Hosts: Fran (with guest Kelly filling in for Ria)
This packed episode brings the ultimate Friday energy as Fran and Kelly (subbing in for Ria, who's out on "aunt duty") deliver their hot takes on the biggest pop culture stories and TV events of the week. The focus is on the emotional Summer I Turned Pretty (TSITP) Season 3 finale, the surprising developments behind Camp Rock 3 (including the potential absence of Demi Lovato), and an in-depth Dancing With the Stars (DWTS) Season 33 premiere recap. There are also segments on concert culture, SNL's fall lineup, updates in celebrity friend groups, and the latest movie and streaming news. All the feels—from fangirling to critical breakdown—are present, making it a must-listen for pop culture and TV fans.
"She just seems like a very normal person who has, like, a group of friends that are very normal and, like, is still friends with all those people and has a ton of fun." — Fran on Dua Lipa, 09:32
This episode is a tour de force for anyone invested in TV, music, and contemporary fandom. Fran and Kelly capture both the lightness and the intensity of modern pop culture passion, anchoring emotional reactions with context and witty reflections. Their deep-dive into TSITP's finale provides catharsis for fans waiting on the next chapter, while the takes on Camp Rock, DWTS, and music news offer satisfying snark and nostalgia.
If you want to keep up with the chatter driving millennial and Gen Z inboxes, or if you need validation for being devastated by a YA romance at any age, this episode is essential listening.
