Millie Nicherico
Foreign. Hey, everybody. Welcome to the last bonus episode of I saw what you did. My name is Millie Nicherico.
Danielle Henderson
I'm Danielle Henderson.
Millie Nicherico
How are we feeling? How are we feeling about this in the last one?
Danielle Henderson
I feel weird about it.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah.
Danielle Henderson
Because we're not like. I mean. I mean, how are people gonna talk to us now? Well, they can talk to you. I'm locked down. I'm. You cannot get to me, of course.
Millie Nicherico
But we're still topless. We were doing a topless. As we always do. Our pod, our bonus episodes. Topless. The first topless podcast.
Danielle Henderson
Tits are out.
Millie Nicherico
Yes. The bottoms are still on. Just that. No tops. Because it's November.
Danielle Henderson
We reverse Porky Pig in it.
Millie Nicherico
When did we. That is so funny that we. I think many years ago. That was a joke. And then we've just like told people that we do the bonus topless and then we forget that we do them topless and we just mention it. I love that about us, to be honest. I love our lore too.
Danielle Henderson
I like our mythology. Keep making up stuff, y'all.
Millie Nicherico
The mythology, like some common mythologies. I. I will remember one being that you do not want a partner that is around you in any kind of way. Even if they're the blob. Even if the. Even if they're like a crypto creature, like a vampire or werewolf. You're always looking to not be around them.
Danielle Henderson
I'm going for the one every time that has a job.
Millie Nicherico
Yes.
Danielle Henderson
Has something to do outside of the house. Although I will say I do have a new crush. And I texted our friend. Well, I texted my friend and our friend of the show, Matt Fraction, and I said, hey, I have this crush. I think you can help because I think, you know people that know this crush.
Millie Nicherico
Ooh.
Danielle Henderson
And texted him, like, you know, I sent like four messages. And his response, his first response was, it sounds like you've been hacked. Like, I was so hyper about this crush. Are you okay? It sounds like you've been hacked. He's definitely helping me because as we know, Matt Fraction is a stand up dude and we love him a lot.
Millie Nicherico
That's so wonderful.
Danielle Henderson
But it was just. I'm like, yeah, I know. I said that's how it feels in my heart. I feel insane. Like, crush makes me feel insane.
Millie Nicherico
Is he gonna arrange like a meet cute where you guys meet in public and then he's at the bar as a mysterious stranger. Like, Matt Fraction is like wearing like a trench coat and he's like, oh, I'm just like monitoring the scenario.
Danielle Henderson
Deeply doubtful.
Millie Nicherico
Too bad. He'd be good at that role.
Danielle Henderson
I think he'd be up for it, but I doubt he has the time, but.
Millie Nicherico
Bummer.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah. But he's. I think, you know, we're gonna try to see what if I can meet this. This guy. But the reason I say that is that if I meet this. This dude, I feel like I would like to be around.
Millie Nicherico
Don't say anything more because we don't want to jinx this whatsoever is the first thing. That's another bit of lore that that was created over the years is mentioning a name means invariably that that person will be either your coworker or will disappear off the face of the earth.
Danielle Henderson
100%. So we are not mentioning the name. Sure, sure. Yeah, absolutely. I would, I would not. I wouldn't want this person in my face all day still. But I wouldn't mind having him around for a bit.
Millie Nicherico
Interesting right now. Very interesting.
Danielle Henderson
I mean, this is early days. We don't know if he flosses or has skid marks yet. So, like, you know, well, he probably.
Millie Nicherico
Has been to jail and has a Masonic back tattoo.
Danielle Henderson
Easily. That will be revealed first and foremost. That's the case with you.
Millie Nicherico
Well, that's exciting. I love a November crush.
Danielle Henderson
I like a winter crush. I do. I like a good friend. That'll help you out. I like a winter crush. But I like the mythology of the lore of me being. Don't put that man in my face. I also love that you are always going for a jock in our fmks. I love that part of the lore of the show is how much you love a beefy little jock.
Millie Nicherico
I think we've established I like a white guy into rap and reggae. I like a jock, you know, I like a shitty little vampire. I like a craggy hot. I mean, to be honest, my taste is all over the place. Like, I really. I think I've established that I. And I think everyone's hot. So, you know, I really don't have any. Any standards when it comes to romance. I could easily have a crush on, like, anyone, so.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, that's.
Millie Nicherico
That's including the Blob.
Danielle Henderson
Including, but not limited to the Blob.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah.
Danielle Henderson
But these bonus episodes have been really fun and truly unhinged and make me laugh so hard when we're recording them.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah.
Danielle Henderson
And even after when I'm listening back, like, we're just loosey goosey.
Millie Nicherico
I love them too. And I like, you know, we play games. We like, read, you know, emails and had voicemails. I feel like Putting the voicemails in was like a really big stroke of genius, I gotta say. Casey O'Brien, our producer, was the one that suggested that. And I love it.
Danielle Henderson
Started, then comes through again. Always.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, I, Yeah, I, I, the, the bonus, to me, I felt like were. I mean, I liked doing normal episodes, but I also felt like the bonus was just like a way for us to just like, talk. A bunch of that was not related to movies necessarily. I mean, it did. I mean, they were all came back to movies, but it was like we could just like, go hard on, like, music or, you know, know, whatever.
Danielle Henderson
Tv, our lives, whatever. I love, I do, I do love it. It's been a lot of. It's been fun. It's been so much fun. We should do a podcast of just bonus episodes and they'll be like, bonus to what? What is, what is this the extra of?
Millie Nicherico
I know people are like, what is this podcast about? It's like, I don't know, just talking absolute shit. Like, no, no scope, no direction. It's a couple.
Danielle Henderson
It's just cat dog. It's like one is a cat, one's a dog. They have no, they're. They meet in the middle. They have no. They're just connected and they just do things. They run in different directions, they talk. Who knows?
Millie Nicherico
Wow. We are cat dog. Did you just think of that or were you thinking of this the entire time?
Danielle Henderson
No, I just thought of it.
Millie Nicherico
Yo, that's actually true. I'm obviously a dog.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah, only because you're more friendly.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, I'm stupider. I'm definitely stupider.
Danielle Henderson
You're more friendly. You. You are more loving, and you have a dog. Whereas I am a little bit dubious about people. I enjoy my time. I enjoy my time alone. And I have cats.
Millie Nicherico
Absolutely. Which is fine. I mean, people, like, have cats and dogs in their same household, and I love cat people.
Danielle Henderson
Yep.
Millie Nicherico
I think we're. That's why we've been a good match over the past four years, is because we have different animal energies.
Danielle Henderson
I agree. I agree. We're astrologically well matched in our friendship. It's good. It's been good.
Millie Nicherico
Definitely. Yeah. People don't realize that maybe, but an Aries and a Gemini. What the fuck?
Danielle Henderson
It's like a shark riding on a tiger.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, it's like. It is like somebody pumping air on one of those, like, pumper things into a fireplace and the fire rages. That's what air and fire do. So air exacerbates the, you know, the fire of the thing. So I mean, we're perfectly matched. What else about us?
Danielle Henderson
And that's a good thing. Well, that's a good thing because it's not easy to. This is essentially a business. It's not always easy to start a business with a friend. So we were very well matched, and we're lucky in that way.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, I. I agree. And I. I think it's good that we're. This isn't, like, a complete Fleetwood Max scenario where we all hate each other afterwards and everyone's, like, suing each other. I. I don't know. Like, I. I feel pretty good about everything that we've done. And I like you still, so that's great.
Danielle Henderson
I not only like you, I love you.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, exactly. So.
Danielle Henderson
And I think. What else about us? Well, I came up with the game serial serial killer or self care during a bonus. I think. Was that in a main episode that just became a bonus thing? I don't know.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, you pull. You know, it's so funny. I don't even remember when we started that.
Danielle Henderson
Me either.
Millie Nicherico
But when you brought it to the podcast, I was kind of like, okay, this is gonna. This has legs. This is gonna stick around for a while.
Danielle Henderson
Like, wait a minute. I do like answering these questions. This is difficult.
Millie Nicherico
I know. And then just like, what was. Like, there was this one time where you, like, I was just so certain you were gonna answer a certain way, and you didn't, and I got mad about it.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, that was the Chernobyl episode. That was the Chernobyl answer, and I will never live it down. Everyone was livid on your behalf. They were like, you. That absolutely should have been correct. You've talked about nothing else but that show for, like, two years.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, well, like. And perhaps, like, my worst showing was when I admitted that I throw ice on the cars on the freeway. And, like, people were like, what the fuck? You sociopath? And I'm like, what?
Danielle Henderson
It is very rare that people criticize us after we have our revelations on serial killer or self care. A lot of people identify with us, but in those two distinct, distinct examples, which I think were. If not in the same. I think there might have been.
Millie Nicherico
It might have been the same bonus. Yeah, right.
Danielle Henderson
If not, they were definitely back to back. And those were some tough weeks where people were like, we don't know about y'all anymore. Millie is revealing absolutely psychopathic behavior, chucking ice out of a car window. And Danielle, you just, like, did a 180 and pulled the wool over her eyes for no reason.
Millie Nicherico
I know.
Danielle Henderson
That was.
Millie Nicherico
We Canceled ourselves, essentially. What happened in that.
Danielle Henderson
In that episode, we lost a lot of faith. We lost a lot of it.
Millie Nicherico
Well, hopefully we can redeem ourselves for this very last bonus. I know we've got, like, a bunch of voicemails. We got some fun things to talk about.
Danielle Henderson
Let's get into it.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah. So we have a voicemail from George, 27 years old. She. Her pronouns. And it is something about unreliable narrators.
C
Hey, Millie and Daniel. I'm just here washing the dishes and listening to you guys talk about the dangers of parasocial relationships while eating leftover Chinese food after dancing the night away with some of my best friends in the world. And I guess it's just got me thinking about how incredible it is that we get to hear your amazing friendship week in, week out, and how much you guys just fill each other with joy and laughter. I guess it's just an incredible thing. And it makes me hopeful that when I'm your age, I'm gonna have just as much fun and light and joy with the people who I care deeply about. It's a wonderful feeling. Anyway, I don't really have too many questions more. Just wanted to say thank you so much for everything you do. I guess my only question would be, what are your favorite movies? Unreliable narrators. Something that ties it together beautifully at the end. Anyway, thank you so much.
Danielle Henderson
Bye.
Millie Nicherico
Wow. God, I feel so calm.
Danielle Henderson
I know. Like, George, do you do audiobooks or will you do, like, a calm app recording for us, please?
Millie Nicherico
That was straight up asmr. Did you not think.
Danielle Henderson
It was? Very, very relaxing voice. And I love that it comes on the. If that's how you sound after you've gone out with your friends dancing for a night, you need to make. I hope this is part of your professional life, that you are a professional talker.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah. And with the Aussie accent. Is that. Did I hear a little bit of that? Oh, man. I gotta get you to, like, you know, create something to where I can, you know, if I'm having a panic attack or something, I can just, like, flip you on and feel better. Geez. Amazing.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, that was wonderful. What do you think about the question, though? Georgie's question about unreliable narrators?
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, I thought about this. I mean. I mean, I think that, like, one of my favorites is from the Swimmer, which is a movie we did just a couple episodes ago. Yeah, I mean, there's, you know, a lot of crime films that have that element to it. I don't know. I'm trying to think of what do you have, you have anything. Top of mind.
Danielle Henderson
Top of mind. Which is weird because it's not even, like, my favorite movie or anything, but I love that little freak in Atonement.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, yeah.
Danielle Henderson
Like, just absolutely not. Just unreliable, but diabolical, but brings it together in the end in a way that felt like, oh, yeah, it feels good.
Millie Nicherico
Well, and, like, I think we talked about Gone Girl, which we were like, did we want to do that for the podcast? I guess we ran out of time. Well, we talked about doing it at some point, but, yeah, that would be one, I think. Oh. Kind of like Atonement in that way, or.
Danielle Henderson
We did. We did cover Frailty.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, that's right. That's right.
Danielle Henderson
Frailty is a great movie with an unreliable narrator.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, honestly, like, I'm thinking. Yeah. I mean, I actually want to revisit Gone Girl, so. Or even, like, we haven't.
Danielle Henderson
We didn't do Rashomon. That's kind of a good example.
Millie Nicherico
The Rashomon effect.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah. Yeah. There's a lot. There's a lot of. Those are the ones that come, like, top of mind, but Gone Girl for sure. Yeah. There's just. There's just a lot of Atonement. That little girl's a little freak. Such a little freak. Ruining lives.
Millie Nicherico
Okay, if you put in. If you put in Google right now. Unreliable narrator movies. Why does Forrest Gump come up?
Danielle Henderson
What?
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, Forrest Gump. Here we go.
Danielle Henderson
I knew we weren't getting out of our last bonus without bringing up Forrest Gump.
Millie Nicherico
Like, is he an unreliable narrator?
Danielle Henderson
I mean, the man does claim to have run cross country for, like, years on end.
Millie Nicherico
Okay.
Danielle Henderson
And he's in every popular pop cultural moment that ever existed since his birth.
Millie Nicherico
Yo, I never thought about that. So he could be just, like, a liar.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah.
Millie Nicherico
Forrest Gump.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah.
Millie Nicherico
You think he created the Happens T shirt? Do you think that he did?
Danielle Henderson
Hell, no, he didn't. I don't think he created the happy face thing either. There's no way the man had that level of obliviousness to not realize that he is part of some of the top pop cultural moments in the nation. I think he's a deeply unreliable narrator.
Millie Nicherico
I always thought that the T shirt bumper sticker section of that movie was the most ridiculous. Like, I was like, so you're trying to tell me that Forrest Gump created the Shit Happens T shirt?
Danielle Henderson
I mean, the man doesn't even say shit. Can't even utter the words.
Millie Nicherico
I was like, this movie is already too fucking long. You couldn't have trimmed this, like, section? It's just so over the top.
Danielle Henderson
He sounds like a man who you would sit next to at a bar and with every beer he becomes more and more self important. Like, yeah, I created the shit happened. Sure.
Millie Nicherico
I mean, I'm willing to believe. I'm willing to believe that he is a ping pong champion. I'm willing to believe that he bought stock in Apple and became a trillionaire. There's a couple of things that I'm like, okay, whatever, but the fucking T shirt bumper sticker thing was just so over the top. I'm like, no, this is. This is what makes this movie ridiculous.
Danielle Henderson
Bridge too far. Bridge too far. Wow.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah. Thinking about him as an unreliable narrator, that's amazing.
Danielle Henderson
Think of it. Think of Forrest Gump as a fucking liar.
Millie Nicherico
What a fucking liar. And here I was a few episodes ago defending him against Jenny and now I'm like, fuck him.
Danielle Henderson
It's a rich text.
Millie Nicherico
That's why we keep. We keep talking about it.
Danielle Henderson
Well, thank you for everything, for talking to us, for calming us down, and for sending in your great question. And we do have another voicemail. This one is from Ravi and the subject is Bad bitches of the 90s.
Millie Nicherico
Hello, ladies. My name is Ravi. I'm originally from Pittsburgh Penns. Been living in Los Angeles for the last decade. And I'm really inspired by the thought of a Bad bitches of the 90s playlist. And I think it should be a living, breathing thing that everybody contributes to. So I'm going to contribute five tunes for this playlist and they are PJ Harvey, down by the Water, Liz Fair, Supernova Queen Latifah, U N I T Y, Fiona Apple Criminal, and a song used to great effect in Natural Born Killers. That would be L7 and shit list. I want to hear your contributions. I want everybody to email in songs. And let's just make this playlist truly epic because this is the best music of our lifetimes. Love the pod. Keep doing what you're doing. I look forward to it every week. Be well. These people have incredible voices.
Danielle Henderson
I know. Ravi sounds like a drive time dj. Wow.
Millie Nicherico
Sounds like. Like they're on KROC or something.
Danielle Henderson
What an awesome power. Powerful voice. I like this. I like hearing our listeners. Although do not listen to a thing Ravi says because we are ending the podcast in like four days. So do not send us songs for a playlist that will not materialize from our end.
Millie Nicherico
I mean, I might check it, but.
Danielle Henderson
If I'm not creating it.
Millie Nicherico
Sure, sure. Oh, sure.
Danielle Henderson
Well, what do you think? Do you have Any Bad bitches of the 90s playlist suggestions to add to that great list?
Millie Nicherico
I have a Bad bitches of the 90s playlist that I posted. Yeah, that's weird. We talked about it on this podcast. I posted it. It's on Spotify say no More, and I think has at least two of those songs, if not all of them.
Danielle Henderson
Bare Men's two of those songs. I listened to that playlist.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, it's called A Gorgeous Mistake. It's basically for my intense women who love hard and were, you know, wearing, you know, crushed velvet dresses in the 90s and, you know, things of that nature, carrying a giant purse with, like, four pairs of shoes in it from the hippie store in the mall. But, you know. But hey, listen, Ravi, if you want to. If you want to do, like, a group activity and, you know, after we're done and get together and make playlists with X. I saw what you did, Pop listeners, by all means, tag us.
Danielle Henderson
Tag us on Instagram if you do.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, I would.
Danielle Henderson
I would only add. There's a couple of bands that don't exist anymore that I only know from having their cd, like, it's that indie. Like, indie. Indie. But there was a band called Hail H A I L and I don't even know. I don't think they ever did another record. The woman who sang, who created that band or sang those songs was wonderful. I would put every single one of them on a. On a playlist. I'm looking at your Spotify, though, and.
Millie Nicherico
Well, I mean, quite Honestly, my number one bad in the 90s is Sinead O'Connor. And the album I Do Not Want, what I Haven't Got is a masterpiece. I would just put that entire album on a playlist and be like, this is a bad from the 90s.
Danielle Henderson
Top two, bottom.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, but there's usual suspects. On that Spotify playlist that I made, I mean, it's like, you know, pj, Liz Fair, Sinead, like some Concrete Blonde, some Fiona Apples on there.
Danielle Henderson
I would throw some MC Light on there.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah. Huh. I mean, actually, like, if you want to talk about Bad Bitches, you know, Rap Edition, that's like this whole other hole to fall into because there's so many of that. I mean, you can't play with my Yo Yo.
Danielle Henderson
I mean, I rock rough and tough with my Afro Puffs.
Millie Nicherico
I mean, Mary J. Blige, you can put Erykah Badu on there. I mean, the list goes on MC Light. I was a huge fan of MC Light. Absolutely kick this one Here for me and my dj, you know, technotronic. I mean, I guess that's like late or late 80s, early 90s Y, Kid K. You could put, you know, JJ fat on there. Maybe later JJ fan, salt and peppa in their, like, horny era. Horny, Horny. Salt and pepper. Like, they were always horny, but then they double down, you know.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, God, then they made a whole horny album.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah. Tlc, Condom in One Eye, the Glasses era. Like, honestly, there is no shortage of.
Danielle Henderson
Bad bitches in the 90s. It really was the best era. And I'm not even getting into, like, the deep punk or, you know, I. There is a lot more that we could put on this list, but we're not going to make the playlist because we're done.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, you could put babes and toy line on there. Guys like, come on.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, who. Oh, God, I'm looking right at her right now. It's not Babes in Toyland. Like Rasputina.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, my God.
Danielle Henderson
Some Rasputina on there. Why not? Although we got. I gotta. I gotta say, we have definitely given some options for this playlist, but I just want to run down a brief listing of your public playlist titles, which are the best thing I've ever seen in my life. You're very good at naming a playlist. Okay, so one of them is 60s Vegas coke bloat.
Millie Nicherico
That is unfortunately my most famous playlist. It truly is. Like, I've had people come up to me in public and talk about that. They're like, you created the Coke bloat, the 60s Coke float playlist. I'm like, yes.
Danielle Henderson
There are hundreds of people who have saved this playlist.
Millie Nicherico
My favorite, but it's my legacy.
Danielle Henderson
I also love most intense songs of childhood. True. I do love. Don't get me wrong, he's a nice guy. You belong to the city.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, yeah. That's like, you know, that's like a 80s. That's like a. A Don Henley, you know, like, yeah, sax, Heavy cocaine nights. Like, maybe a little. You know, there's like some manhunter lighting on that playlist.
Danielle Henderson
We also have put the cheese on the Sociables from Three Women.
Millie Nicherico
Of course. That's a. That's a psychotic. Shelley Duvall as the character from Three Women playlist.
Danielle Henderson
We have blue leather skirt with matching sweater. Okay.
Millie Nicherico
There's only a. A certain, certain number of people that will understand what that feels like. And you had to have a mom in the late 80s that wore sets like, yes outfit sets that, yes, incorporated leather patches.
Danielle Henderson
It is so good. And then this is, I would argue, just based on the number of saves, your actual most favorite, most favorite playlist. 80s Wall Street Cokehead playlist.
Millie Nicherico
I don't know why cocaine is a big influence on playlists. I've never even done cocaine, so I, you know, but I seem to be influenced by it a lot.
Danielle Henderson
But it plays a big role in a lot of music.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, a lot. I mean, that is like. Is. Is like. That was definitely inspired by American Psycho.
Danielle Henderson
Incredible. And my favorite playlist, which is not public, but my favorite playlist that you've ever made is called Tight Pants Workout.
Millie Nicherico
Of course. Yeah.
Danielle Henderson
Heavy metal.
Millie Nicherico
When you're, like, blasting your delts to that absolute.
Danielle Henderson
Well, beautiful. Thank you so much, Ravy, for calling in. Great question. A lot of options. Somebody else will make the playlist. But thank you so much for contacting us.
Millie Nicherico
So our next is an email from Elizabeth slash Moose. Is it Moose from. You can't do that on television.
Danielle Henderson
Is it Moose as in my cruel childhood family nickname?
Millie Nicherico
Oh, what?
Danielle Henderson
Yeah, my family called me Moose because I was a beefy little yo them and I was tall. I'm like, they. What?
Millie Nicherico
You don't.
Danielle Henderson
They didn't know how tall I was going to be. So when I came out and I was like, all roles, they were like, look at this fat bitch.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, my God.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah, my. My family will shame a baby. They have no problem with that.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, no. God, I can't even tell you.
Danielle Henderson
It made me tough. It made me sad and have to go to therapy, but it made me tough.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, that. Listen, we're all. We're all going through it. Our families were fucked up, but Elizabeth, slash Moose, uses she her pronouns. And this one is entire titled FMK Extraterrestrial Edition. Hello, ladies. Love you both. Love the pod. I've got an FMK for you guys based off of the aliens in three of my favorite movies. Your podcast is the highlight of my week as it gives me a brief reprieve from the chaos of motherhood. Thanks for everything you do, Elizabeth. Moose, are you ready for this fmk?
Danielle Henderson
I am so ready.
Millie Nicherico
I feel like we've done one of these before, but it doesn't matter. It's all about a vibe in the current moment. Okay, so. FMK Extraterrestrial Edition. The Xenomorph, the Predator, and the Thing.
Danielle Henderson
Okay, I'm going in off the dome fast and loose. Fuck the predator. Marry the xenomorph. Kill the thing.
Millie Nicherico
Ooh. Okay, the thing. You're killing the thing.
Danielle Henderson
Only because I don't remember what the thing is.
Millie Nicherico
See, I just googled it too. And I'm like.
Danielle Henderson
I'm like, wait, what did it do? How did it kill? What's going on?
Millie Nicherico
I forget. Am I supposed to believe that the thing looks like when that guy's face explodes? Like when his giant face. Like the teeth come out of the face? Is that the thing?
Danielle Henderson
I think. Think so. Either way, I just don't like the name. Like I'm. I'm killing it.
Millie Nicherico
Huh?
Danielle Henderson
It's just the thing.
Millie Nicherico
For some reason, thought you'd marry the thing because you. He. He, she. It would be out of town a lot. I don't know.
Danielle Henderson
This is why I chose my other answers. I'm the Predator. Because what Alien. Wild time gonna be a story. Can't see it sometimes. You can't even see the predator sometimes. Got like those. Those rows of teeth that look like sabertooth tigers with dreadlocks.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah.
Danielle Henderson
And that clicking sound. I'm that. But I'm gonna marry the xenomorph. If I'm not mistaken, that is from Alien, correct?
Millie Nicherico
Yes, correct.
Danielle Henderson
So xenomorph from alien. Why always in space? Always trying to get people off the ship. Always trying to get people out of their goddamn way. They got that big old head. They can see. They're very helpful around the house. They got the crazy claw hands.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Danielle Henderson
They can. They can handle the. The. The vermin on the farm. I will marry a xenomorph.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah.
Danielle Henderson
And then again, kill the thing because I don't know what you are. Thing. I don't know anything about you. I don't feel like I could you or marry you.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah. Seems a little sus.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah.
Millie Nicherico
Okay. Interesting. This is all interesting information. Makes me know you just a little bit better than I did before. Of course.
Danielle Henderson
Well, what about you?
Millie Nicherico
Okay, here's what I'm thinking. This is what I've been cooking up as you were talking. I am going to the xenomorph. I'm going to marry the predator. Duh. I'll also kill the thing, and here's why. So the xenomorph has that tail. You know what they say? What do they say?
Danielle Henderson
Big tail, weird sex. Big tail, don't fuck. It is clearly an animal. That's bestiality.
Millie Nicherico
Don't even know if that's a tail. We don't know what that thing is. I'm looking at pictures where the thing is coming up between its legs. So maybe it's actually like a sex organ. I don't know.
Danielle Henderson
Maybe it's a back dong. We don't know. It could be a back dong.
Millie Nicherico
It is a back dog, perhaps. Perhaps it's a back dong. Yeah, that looks like something I'd probably party with now. Let me tell you something about the Predator. I kind of feel like Predator is kind of like my big boy Daniel Kaluuya that I've been looking for my whole life. My beefy Daniel Kaluuya from. Nope.
Danielle Henderson
An alien form.
Millie Nicherico
An alien form. Like my little. My little thick country boy, even though he's from another planet. Yeah.
Danielle Henderson
Are you equating the fucking Predator with Daniel Kaluuya? You got to show more of your work. I don't know.
Millie Nicherico
I don't know why I think this. Because he looks a little thick. He's got, like, thick thighs. You know, he's kind of got. He's got beef beefy shoulders and arms. Like, you know, substantial. Like he just got out of the military or something. I don't know. Like, there's some, like, military vibes there. So I'm like, okay, like, I would want to be with Predator forever. That's the case. And then. And then, yeah, Killing the thing. Because I'm very unclear with what the thing actually looks like. I don't know if it just embodies the thing that it kills, and that's just not enough to go on.
Danielle Henderson
So I'm solidly there with your answers.
Millie Nicherico
I gotta tell you, over the course of this podcast, we have had to consider a lot of weird from y'all when it comes to an fmk, Truly not just characters, but, like, objects, concepts, concepts, concepts. Like, whether or not you would either or marry a concept is, like, good thing that we're both some, like, weird bitches that would do stuff like that. Like, we're thought experiment queens. Because honestly, like, most people would be like, I don't know what you're talking about.
Danielle Henderson
I can't even begin to try to.
Millie Nicherico
Answer that, like, and give, like, a very rational response to why you would marry the blob. Or, you know, like, something like very thoughtful Property Rich Dracula. Like, we've seen it all. We've heard and seen it all from y'all. So.
Danielle Henderson
This, as our last FMK perhaps, was pretty epic. So thank you so much, Elizabeth slash Moose.
Millie Nicherico
That's right. Thanks.
Danielle Henderson
Our next email is kind of my favorite of all time.
Millie Nicherico
It's for you.
Danielle Henderson
It is for me. It is short and sweet to the point. The subject is pen, pen, pen. And the body of the email is Simply Uniball Signo 207 retractable gel pen, Ultra Micro 0.38 millimeter. And this is from Valerie, so you'll remember a few weeks ago I did say if you have a favorite pen, email me. And Valerie is the only person that took me up on this. Now let me also say I agree with Valerie that The Uniball Signo 207 retractable gel pen Ultra Micro 0.38 millimeter is the Cadillac of over the counter pens.
Millie Nicherico
Absolutely right.
Danielle Henderson
If you're going for. If you're going for an upgrade from the Bic, this is what you want to get. This is a professional pen. It doesn't leak through most pages. It's got a nice scratchiness to it that I appreciate. It is not my favorite pen, but it is the Cadillac of over the counter pens. My favorite pen is a muji gel ink 0.38 millimeter in gray or navy blue. And I like the click ones because a click is great for throwing on a book and underlining and not having to worry about it leaking all over your bag or whatever. Yeah, Muji is my favorite, but this is the Cadillac of over the counter pens, which I'm sure most people didn't even realize existed. Over the counter pens. It's the thing.
Millie Nicherico
Oh yeah. Over the counter pens. I. I think I have. The last time I bought a pen was the Uniball Jetstream. Is that the one?
Danielle Henderson
Those are different pens. The Jetstream is a newer one.
Millie Nicherico
Ah, I see. Oh, but it was. It was in the Uniball family. So the last pen I bought, according to a website where I buy things, is UniBall Jetstream 0.7.
Danielle Henderson
See, that's a bit thick for me. The 0.7 and the 0.5 are a bit thick for me.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, I like a 0.7. Like a thick boy, as you know. So.
Danielle Henderson
But yeah.
Millie Nicherico
In the family. But it's so funny because I thought we were gonna get like you put the call out for people and maybe it's just early days because that episode did not. I feel like we're gonna get pens constantly after we sign off. Like, I think people are going to continuously send us their pen recommendations.
Danielle Henderson
You have to tell me what they say.
Millie Nicherico
I also started with pencils.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah.
Millie Nicherico
For a while. Like for at least past couple years. I. I love really into pencils.
Danielle Henderson
So I got those black wings.
Millie Nicherico
I don't know how you feel, but what's your favorite pencil? Do you know?
Danielle Henderson
My favorite pencil is a black wing, of course.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, a hundred percent.
Danielle Henderson
Of course.
Millie Nicherico
I mean, look what I got. This is a black wing pencil sharpener.
Danielle Henderson
Yup. It's the only way. Pens and pencils, writing utensils are the only way that I'm outwardly very bougie, I think.
Millie Nicherico
Yes.
Danielle Henderson
Like, I'm not just going down and buying a pack of Ticonderogas from cvs. No, I'm getting.
Millie Nicherico
That was when you were an amateur.
Danielle Henderson
That was from when I knew nothing from pension. But I'm also not at the fountain pen level of pen appreciation, and I think that's the final boss of pen love.
Millie Nicherico
So I have a. I have a Katy Perry pencil. Why?
Danielle Henderson
How?
Millie Nicherico
You gave me a Katy Perry pencil. Now I'm just looking at my pencils.
Danielle Henderson
How dare you show that to me after I just said I am bougie about my pens and pension. Like, here's my Holly Hobby pencil.
Millie Nicherico
I know, right? Actually, yo, look at this. This is an original Daily show with Jon Stewart pencil.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, snap. That's like a collector's item.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, sure. As is. This is what I went to the Daily show in the late 90s.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, my goodness.
Millie Nicherico
Hosting the original time that he hosted. So I got some collector's items around here. Not gonna lie, not gonna brag.
Danielle Henderson
But I got some pencils.
Millie Nicherico
I got a couple of pencils. This is interesting, though. Thank you for telling us about this pen. Literally, the only thing Valerie wrote is just the brand of the pen.
Danielle Henderson
That earns more respect from me than you could possibly imagine. The subject is pen. I want to get that tattooed on me. Pen. Just pen. Here it is. You know what it is? You asked for it.
Millie Nicherico
So good.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, I love it. Well, our last ever email on a bonus episode is from Chad, who uses he him pronouns. The subject is. Thank you for the laughs. Hi Millie and Danielle, former film production assistant here. A lifetime ago, my biggest claim to fame was that I got the opportunity to work on Gone Girl when it filmed in my home state of Missouri. I'm in a different line of business and now living in Austin, Texas. But my love of film has continued to be a constant in my life. I had to finally email because I'm obsessed with Yalls podcast. I love the way you guys communicate and the perspectives you share. I also appreciate that your podcast discusses a multitude of films because sometimes you just want to turn your brain off and be entertained. I love the random pop culture references, quote count from Sesame Street's Disco Period, the Pure Moods compilation, etc. I have a multitude of screen recordings of clips from Yalls episodes that I like to send to My friends and sister with no context and revisit when I need a laugh. The Harry Potter kids being referred to as three bastards continues to be a favorite as well as Danielle confusing toadies for tothe wet sprocket. And your discussion on what's buried in the sand at the beach, quote, full diapers and quote, kills me.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, my God. I can't even believe we said any of that. I don't remember saying any of those things.
Danielle Henderson
That said. I recently, recently watched Freddy vs. Jason for the first time with a friend. Horrible fucking movie. But leads me to my question. If you could see a face off movie between any two movie characters, who would you pit against each other? And why does not have to be horror icons specifically? Thank you for all the laughs, Chad. Oh, God, Chad. Thank you for making us laugh at our own.
Millie Nicherico
Unreal. Unreal.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, God. Do you have anything off the dome for this?
Millie Nicherico
Okay, this is gonna be a bit of a stretch, but I feel like once I say it, the wheels will just start turning. The Hollywood wheels could start turning the minute I say this. I think there needs to be a face off between Mario and Luigi from Super Mario Brothers. Okay, say more.
Danielle Henderson
Brother versus Brother. I'm already there.
Millie Nicherico
Italian brothers. This. This could be a whole new area. Like, I mean, the likes of which we haven't seen since the Godfather trilogy. Like, if you made a dark. Like a really dark version of the Super Mario brothers, right, where they were in business together and the plumbing business, they part ways. You know, there's like, warring, you know, factions within the family. Then you kind of bring in these, like, ancillary characters, like princesses, you know, the Goombas, the Birdos. Like, these. These are, like, characters in the world. Like Birdo, you know, from the second Super Mario Brothers, where it's like, you know, shooting eggs out of its mouth. Like, that could be like, you know, kind of like an affiliate of like a Sunny Corleone type of of person. You know, I just feel like dark Mafia adjacent. Super Mario Brothers would kill. Tell me it wouldn't kill.
Danielle Henderson
Not only would it kill franchise theme.
Millie Nicherico
Park rides, it would 100 Mario Kart. A Dark Mario Kart would be like the new Fast and the Furious series. There'd be like 12 movies fucking, you know, and then each. Each one of the cars, like, has got its own, like, you know, familia situation. Like, dry bones. Guy's got his, like, whole family of, like, fucking skeleton turtles that, like, come to the races. And it's like everyone's kind of like it's The Race wars of like the Mario World. Like, dude, I'm telling you, that whole like whatever it is, IP is so deep. But if you took it dark and very serious, man, it would just. It would kill. I'm just telling you.
Danielle Henderson
I said we give it a go. We try to pitch the idea. Because I also agree. What's the worst that can happen? They make it and then we just laugh and have a great time with this movie.
Millie Nicherico
What could. What is the worst that could happen? Like there's so many worst case scenarios happening right now in Hollywood that you could do a fucking. This would be absolutely a hit. I guarantee it.
Danielle Henderson
Hundred fucking percent.
Millie Nicherico
What about you?
Danielle Henderson
Well, as per usual, I'm going a darker turn.
Millie Nicherico
Uh huh.
Danielle Henderson
And I right away, top of mind. This is what's wrong with me. This is my first thought. No joke. When I read this question. I want to see Ben from Leaving Las Vegas versus Martha from who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
Millie Nicherico
Jesus Christ.
Danielle Henderson
Drunk versus Drunk. Spy versus Spy. Who's, who's. Who's gonna ruin. Who's gonna wear each other down to a nub first?
Millie Nicherico
And then it's like Michelle Pfeiffer from When a Man Loves a Woman coming in there at some point being like, gotcha, bitch.
Danielle Henderson
We could sub. We can do an alt. Michelle Pfeiffer from When a Man Loves a Woman and Arthur. Dudley Moore from Arthur. I want to get them in a cage match and see what is up.
Millie Nicherico
I'm sorry. I actually met Meg Ryan, by the way. Not even Michelle Pfeiffer. Meg Ryan. I forgot. She's in When a Man Loves a Woman. I barely remember that movie, as you can tell. However, Arthur, because he's a whimsical drunk, right?
Danielle Henderson
You think until he gets in that.
Millie Nicherico
Ring with Martha, she's gonna decimate.
Danielle Henderson
She's gonna decimate most of them.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah. What about the Thin man, folks? I don't like. Like, what are we doing a battle royale of all of the famous Hollywood movie drunks? Is that what we're doing?
Danielle Henderson
I think we should. I think. Remember that. What was that MTV show where they did claymation fights?
Millie Nicherico
Oh, what is that show called? Celebrity.
Danielle Henderson
Celebrity Death Match.
Millie Nicherico
Death Match. Yes.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah, we're doing celebrity Death Match with famous film drunks. First thought in clay. In clay. Claymation. That is what's wrong with me in a nutshell. Didn't think of anything fun like Mario Kart. Didn't think of anything whimsical instantly, like who is the drunkest, most miserable person. Get them together.
Millie Nicherico
I want to See two people battling their demons and each other. That would be the log line for that. Give me a check. Got me a check. I got a chick.
Danielle Henderson
Give me.
Millie Nicherico
Come on, Hollywood.
Danielle Henderson
We.
Millie Nicherico
This is the one thing I will say about our podcast. Over the past four years, we have provided so many business ideas.
Danielle Henderson
Thank you.
Millie Nicherico
So many Hollywood. Fucking stone cold blockbuster franchise hits. So many script ideas. I don't know. Like, if you go back through the episodes, you will see just the brain trust of, like, ideas that people can steal from us.
Danielle Henderson
From time immemorial, we have been trying to positively affect the world of entertainment with our incredible ideas. Why is nobody taking them? Our next step should be making a list, going back, listening to every episode, making a list, and just getting this train rolling. The middle aged theme park. Come on.
Millie Nicherico
There was even one from 100 years ago when we started the Diva Cup. It was like a diva holder. Cup holder, splashback protector, where it's basically like if you're in public and like your diva. You pull out your diva cup, it's like a way to, like, protect it from, like, hitting the ground or whatever. Didn't you say it was like a.
Danielle Henderson
Little curtain that would come out around.
Millie Nicherico
Yes. Or. Well, I think it was like a cur. A privacy decency curtain for when you have to, like, wash your Diva cup in a public sink or something. It was like some crazy shark tank. And I was like, don't know why we're. We're not millionaires.
Danielle Henderson
Why is nobody notified? Mark Cuban, There are two geniuses out here, yo.
Millie Nicherico
We would get like, Draven Green on that. He would be. He never, never invests, but he would be like, I love it.
Danielle Henderson
I don't even know what it is, but I love it. Never seen a Diva Cup? Let's do it.
Millie Nicherico
I'm like, we're gonna put the Sean Sean logo on it. I don't give a.
Danielle Henderson
Can't say that because he is now a criminal.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, my God.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, God. Oh, God, my stomach.
Millie Nicherico
I'm gonna miss these business idea episodes.
Danielle Henderson
They don't. We could just have a business meeting once a week and pitch our crazy idea. We don't have. I mean, no one else will be privy to them. We can keep our own running list. Why not?
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, why not?
Danielle Henderson
Oh, my goodness.
Millie Nicherico
This is also I meant to say. Is it. Did I say that right? Am I thinking about Draymond Green, the basketball player?
Danielle Henderson
Oh, who am I thinking of on the Shark Tank?
Millie Nicherico
Who's on Shark Tank?
Danielle Henderson
Who are the Sharks?
Millie Nicherico
Damon John. That's his name. Okay, got him confused again.
Danielle Henderson
Do you want to do a pickup?
Millie Nicherico
No. Why not? It's our last. Who gives a fuck? It's our last episode. If I got Draymond Green from the warriors and fucking the Sean John guy confused, is anybody gonna care?
Danielle Henderson
No, but P. Diddy's a fucking criminal now. Yeah.
Millie Nicherico
The one not working with Pete Diddy will get. Will get out of jail because he sued me for mis mistaking the Shanjon guy with the Golden State warriors guy.
Danielle Henderson
Also, I'm looking at the Wikipedia page. There have been a lot of sharks and a lot of guest sharks.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, and Damon John is. He's not even the Shan John guy. He's actually the FUBU guy. I'm an idiot. Was Draymond Green on Shark Tank? Hold on now I gotta look.
Danielle Henderson
David John is odd. I don't think Draven Green was on.
Millie Nicherico
No, that's what I meant. I got them confused.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah. Jeff Foxworthy was on fucking Shark Tank as a guest judge.
Millie Nicherico
A guest shark.
Danielle Henderson
For what?
Millie Nicherico
Does he have enough money to invest in people's businesses?
Danielle Henderson
Apparently. I mean, he does have like that whole. I mean, he has to be the new king of Branson once Yakov Smirnoff hopefully retired.
Millie Nicherico
I think Jeff Foxworthy went to my college or some weird like that.
Danielle Henderson
What?
Millie Nicherico
Or maybe it was one of the. What. What's the group? The redneck comedians of comedy.
Danielle Henderson
Oh, yeah.
Millie Nicherico
That whole thing that happened for a while. Wow.
Danielle Henderson
I did not. I do not know enough. I'm realizing about Shark Tank because I didn't know that Bombas appeared on Shark Tank.
Millie Nicherico
Oh, yeah. So ring, ring, camera. Yeah. What?
Danielle Henderson
So they've literally invested in real businesses that have been. Become quite successful.
Millie Nicherico
Don't you remember? I don't know if you remember this, but the lobster guys used to have a shop down in West Hollywood off of Santa Monica, like over like, you know, going towards Beverly Hills or whatever. There was like the lobster guys that was on the show and I was like, oh, my God, they're from Shark Tank.
Danielle Henderson
For some reason did not consider that any of these were real businesses.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, I know.
Danielle Henderson
Thought it was just an entertainment TV show, but nope, they're real businesses.
Millie Nicherico
Absolutely. Absolutely.
Danielle Henderson
But. Well, I love a Bombus sock. So thanks.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, thanks so much for investing.
Danielle Henderson
I mean, Scrub Daddy, worst name for a company. Great product.
Millie Nicherico
Got one in my kitchen as we speak.
Danielle Henderson
So thanks. Thanks, Shark Tank.
Millie Nicherico
And quite honestly, thank you, Chad. Thank you for setting up this question about, you know, face offs between movie characters.
Danielle Henderson
Somehow we got to Shark Tank and.
Millie Nicherico
All just all the nice stuff. You. You made me. You made us remember that. We talked about so many weird things.
Danielle Henderson
So truly this was. It was a wonderful trip down memory lane. And in true bonus episode, regular episode content, I don't know how we got to Shark tank from Ben vs Martha, but we did it. We are special that way. We were special, special that way. And I love it.
Millie Nicherico
I know. Me too.
Danielle Henderson
And I will miss it. And I'm just so glad that you, we, you. We all had this chance to talk to and with each other through our bonus episodes. So thank you.
Millie Nicherico
I agree. It was great hearing from y'all. I'm glad we got to do them. It felt like, you know, a real chill hang where we got to just kind of like, again, just sit in our toplessness and, you know, hear from our listeners, which y'all are all super cool and funny and, yeah, I'm gonna miss it.
Danielle Henderson
So thank you for being with us all these years.
Millie Nicherico
Well, I would do a wrap up, but, you know, I mean, I guess if you want to email us post show end, post bonus end, we are at a saw what you did pot gmail.com. i'll be checking that for a little bit at least.
Danielle Henderson
Yeah.
Millie Nicherico
So if y'all just want to throw some in there voicemails or whatnot and then TBD on, like, if the PO Box is going to exist. I guess it just depends on how far out I pay the bill, quite honestly.
Danielle Henderson
Like, do I have this for another year? What's going on here?
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, I forgot. But if we also have. We'll have that until the time comes.
Danielle Henderson
And our social media, you can. We're not giving up the name, so it'll be there dormant possibly, but that might be a good place for a while to get some updates on us. Maybe we'll post a couple of the. Like, if Millie's doing events, we can put him on the I saw Pod page or something, you know.
Millie Nicherico
Yeah, absolutely.
Danielle Henderson
Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the years of greatness and silliness.
Millie Nicherico
Yes, we love you all. And Danielle, I love you too. As always, a pleasure doing this podcast with you.
Danielle Henderson
I love you the most. It's a blast. Bye.
Millie Nicherico
Bye.

Chad [40:07]:
"If you could see a face off movie between any two movie characters, who would you pit against each other?"
Millie [41:07]:
