A
The second time I go. He goes, oh, I forgot. Do you want nitrous oxide? I was like, yes, mother. And now I love it. I sit there and I wait on that. I'm like, have you seen Shangchangu?
B
She's my friend.
A
If you told me 25 years ago while I was sitting on my couch watching Almost famous for the 50th time, that in 2026, I would not just be interviewing Kate Hudson on a podcast, but we would be friends, I would have said, you're a delusional moron. Well, guess what? Me, in the past, you're the moron. Cause sitting next to me is my good friend Kate Hudson. Kate, welcome to Funny you ask.
B
I'm so happy to be here, by the way. We're not just friends. We work together.
A
We are very. We work together. We are contractually obliged by Netflix to be friends. We work on the. I can go ahead and say it. Smash hit show Running Point season two will be coming out very soon. I can actually say April 23rd. Also recently in Song Song Blue, where you give literally one of the greatest performances I've ever seen in my life. The day after I saw it, I walked into your trailer and started sobbing.
B
And both of us actually couldn't talk to each other because anytime we tried to say something, we just would start crying. The best thing about that premiere that you were at was about three different journalists that I've spoken to since have said, I sat next to Ike at the. At the premiere, and wow, like, he. He really, really lost it. He couldn't stop crying.
A
But you're not. You're more than just an actress. You're a producer, singer, songwriter, CEO, clothing designer, podcast host, mother of three beautiful children. And you know a little bit about 90s movies.
B
I do cocktails, a lot of alcohol,
A
and female singer songwriters.
B
I do.
A
I got to say, when we ask people, what are some categories, you know, most people send us four or five.
B
Did you like my. My last one?
A
Geopolitical Warfare. We're going to get into it. I want to talk about Venezuela.
B
I don't know later who's going to run it.
A
I don't know.
B
I was like, movie stars, you know, like Red Carpet Luke's Teen Vogue.
A
And Geopolitical Warfare.
B
And geopolitical warfare. Yeah. Not my. Not my strongest.
A
Well, we'll get into it later on, but here's how the show is going to work. I'm going to ask you a question about one of these topics. We'll talk, we'll riff.
B
Okay.
A
You're going to ask me a question from the completely random stack of trivia questions in front of you that I have never seen in my life. Okay, we'll do that two more times, and then we have the speed round.
B
Oh, this is so much fun.
A
I'm glad you're saying that. Now.
B
Do I go first?
A
I'm gonna go first and I'm gonna ask you, Kate Hudson a question.
B
Okay.
A
About 90s movies.
B
Yes.
A
All right, here we go. You ready?
B
I'm ready.
A
Jack Nicholson.
B
Okay.
A
I'm not gonna do the impression the whole time. Jed Nicholson has won three Oscars.
B
Yes.
A
The last one in 1997. What movie did he win it for? That was directed by James L. Brooks.
B
That would be. I wanted to make a joke. Spanglish. But it's. It wasn't Spanglish.
A
It wasn't Spanglish. I think Spanglish was his follow up.
B
So James L. Brooks with Jack Nicholson would be.
A
I'll give you a hint if you want.
B
It's not as good as it Gets.
A
Oh, Kate Hudson.
B
Why did I think there was Nancy. Nora Ephron. And Nora Ephron write that?
A
She might have written that.
B
Okay.
A
But as Good as it Gets was. Was definitely James L. Brooks.
B
Okay.
A
Because he didn't Spanglish after.
B
That's right.
A
Bonus question.
B
Okay.
A
Jax won three Oscars. Two best actor, one supporting. Which film earned him his best supporting actor?
B
Oh, I'll give you a hint. You can handle the truth.
A
That's a very good guess. But it's not that.
B
Oh, interesting. But it is the same era.
A
One era before this would be mid-80s.
B
Okay. 80s would be then. Oh, it should have been Witches of Eastwood. Because she was brilliant.
A
Fire.
B
Which. But I'm gonna say.
A
I'll give you one more hint.
B
Okay.
A
He played an astronaut.
B
Jack Nicholson played an astronaut.
A
Yes.
B
In Armageddon. Wait, wait, why can't I.
A
He played an astronaut in this. Not romantic. His story was romantic, but the movie's really about a mother and daughter.
B
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. No, I know this movie. And. And oh, oh.
A
Also directed by James Earl Brooks.
B
Yes.
A
Yeah.
B
Oh, it's Terms of Endearment.
A
Boom. Kate Hudson.
B
I didn't realize he was an astronaut in that.
A
He's like an older astronaut.
B
That movie is. That to me is like what made me want to become an actress. Like those kinds of movies.
A
Those two together.
B
James L. Brooks. Like, what are we talking about?
A
God.
B
King. We need to make more movies like that, which is Song Sung Blues. Kind of has that.
A
It has that vibe It's. It's. It's. It's. It's hard, but it's funny.
B
Yeah.
A
I saw a picture of Jack not too long ago at a Laker game, and it made me so happy. Like, a month ago, I saw.
B
Oh, really?
A
Yeah.
B
Oh, good.
A
I love him. I've never met. You probably know him. I love him not as much as I love my own father, but in the same realm.
B
Yeah.
A
You know what I mean? Like, I have a friend who's friends with one of his kids, and my friend went to Jack's house, and when he. Jack, answered the door, there's a ton of dogs there, and they're all barking and stuff. And Jack's like, calm down, Elijah. No, Skippy, down. And he turns to my friend and goes, we talk to dogs in this house.
B
And I was like, it's a Jack Nicholson.
A
I love you so much.
B
I remember one time, and I was at this party, I was very. I was young and single, and there was a particular guy who was super cute who wanted to take me on this party, but didn't realize that I grew up in this town or who my. That I. Who my parents might have been. And he's like, do you want to meet Jack Nicholson? I'm like, no, no, it's fine. It's okay. And he's like, no, no, no, you gotta. It's Jack Nicholson. You gotta meet Jack Nicholson. I was like. And I didn't wanna tell this guy who my parents were. I didn't want him to know, you know? I wanted to be like, yeah, a random girl at a party, you know? And then I go up and he's like, jack, this is Kate. Kate, this is Jack. He goes, hey, Katie, how's your mom? And I was like, she's really good. She's really good. And the guy looked at me like, your mom? Does that mean. How do you know Jack Nicholson? And that ruined. Ruined my cover.
A
Her mom was in Protocol. Her mom's goddamn private fucking Benjamin.
B
I love that you said protocol.
A
Protocol. I loved every. Every movie that your mom was in. I was thinking about 90s movies and how crazy it must have been growing up in Los Angeles, seeing a movie and then seeing the star of that movie at, like, Ralph's.
B
Let me tell you something. It really was that. I mean, I don't have any. I never lost any magic of the business. Like, to me, making movies, even watching my parents make movies, was always magical. I was like. Like on the set of Big Trouble in Little China was like the greatest set of all time. It was like, I have to be in. I have to make movies. You know, I remember going down the slide in Big trouble. China. They had this slide, and you, like, went to a whole bunch of rubber fish, like, down. And it just. It was like. It's like, who doesn't want to do this for a living?
A
We didn't have that in Chicago.
B
No, no.
A
Like, the famous people we would see would be like, oh, my God, that's the mayor's nephew. That's Patrick Dillon.
B
Although they shot Backdraft in Chicago, they sure did. And I spent a lot. I spent the whole time there with my dad, and I had a great time. Chicago was good to me when I was at.
A
As I told you, your dad has the best hair of all time in the business. His haircut and Backdraft is the best. I just rewatched Backdraft with my daughters not too long ago. Holds up.
B
But I remember being at. There was this store called Tracy Ross and right on Sunset Plaza, you know, and it was. And it was where we would go shopping and all the cool girls went there, and I would just go just to see if I could, you know, see other, like, other cool girls in Hollywood, girls that I looked up to. And I will never forget. This is, like, flirty. This is, like Reality Bites era. And for me, I was like, ninth grade, middle school.
A
96.
B
Yeah, yeah. Like. And I remember walking into this store and seeing Winona Ryder and Gwyneth Paltrow shopping, and that was like, a 90s
A
girls dream to be able to go and see, like, Leo at a club. Speaking about Leo.
B
Okay, here we go.
A
Recently.
B
Oh, I'm a meme.
A
You have achieved what Actors now is the highest honor, which is to be a meme and to be a cool.
B
Oh, it's a funny meme.
A
In case you don't know. There's a meme where it's you and Leo talking and you're so happy to see each other, giant smiles and Sean Penn sitting there looking like. God bless him, he's 200 years old.
B
He's like, get me out of here.
A
Ripping a butt.
B
Get me out of here.
A
Furious that he's in public. And I have seen 30 different memes of it, and it is. It brings me so much joy to see you.
B
I will say to. To. To. To. To. To. To lift the curtain behind that meme a little bit. Yes, I did talk to Sean right before, and I've known Sean forever, and he's in great spirit.
A
He's just great. He just Looks grumpy.
B
He was so happy and like, great. And I loved seeing him. And, and, and then I just ended up talking and then he went back to his. His smoke.
A
I gotta say, it is. It made me so happy to see him smoking cigarettes inside. It was like, there's still a little bit of punk.
B
I remember I was sitting there, I'm next to Ethan Hawke, who's also very. One of my favorites. And I went. And this was way early in the night. I was like, someone's smoking. And. And Ethan goes, yeah, that's the smoke. I went, it's Sean. I didn't even see. I knew it immediately. I'm like, oh, he's gonna be sm.
A
He's not doing BlackBerry vape. He's doing like Marlboro. Like, not even reds like Marlboro, like black.
B
Both Ethan and I were like. At first it was like. At first it was like, yeah, all right. Like, this is nice little punk rock. But by the, like, pack. And then I was like, okay, come on. Okay. You ever smoke a pack of cigarettes?
A
You never heard of secondhand smoke? Jesus.
B
You can go outside.
A
When I saw that meme and I knew I was going to talk to you, I was thinking about 90s movies in Leo and I was thinking about Titanic, which I recently just saw on cable. Incredible. Incredible. The one scene that I was like, nope. Was when him and Kate Winslet first get together before they've even kissed. And she takes off her clothes and it's like, draw me. And I was like, no, this is bullshit. Because this is. These are two young people who are. Couldn't look hotter.
B
Yeah.
A
And there's no way that Kate Winslet could take her clothes off in front of you. And you could. Like, if that was me, it would just be like a stick figure and I'd have like a giant boner. Like, it wouldn't work. It wouldn't work.
B
Well, that's cause it's you, you know,
A
but even Jack, he was like a young like 20 year old guy. Like, what 20 year old guy has the wherewithal to be like, I know,
B
he was in class three.
A
Yeah, steerage. Those guys are the horniest fucking. Come on. Go further with the American Express Business Gold Card.

B
So what's next?
A
I feel liberated.
B
We're gonna take this city back over
A
medicated in an all new season now streaming only on Disney.
B
They're hunting us. It's time we started hunting them.
A
I can work with them.
B
This should be tons of fun.
A
Marvel Television's Daredevil Born now streaming only on Disney plus. And also, it for sure would not work with the gender swap. Like, if on my first date with my wife, I was like, I want you to draw me like your French boys. Like, it would not be sex. She would be the confused woman figuring out how to paint, like, giant balls. Like, it's like, it just doesn't. It isn't realistic. Let me ask you this question. What is Kate Hudson's go to 90s movie? When you want to remember what it feels. Feels like to smoke cigarettes but you're not around. Sean Penn, Right. What do you. What do you reach for?
B
There's a couple. One. I. I would say number one is probably boogie nights. Oh. Cause that's like 99, right?
A
I think actually 97, because Magnolia was
B
Boogie Nights, like, ignited. Like, that was like, oh, I want to make cool movies. Natural Born Killers is one of my favorites. That's a. That, to me was like very 90s. Like early 90s.
A
Yeah. They were very hot in that movie. Woody and Juliet.
B
Oh, yeah, yeah.
A
And Downey's crazy.
B
Everybody's nuts.
A
S. Moore is wild.
B
It's the best. And true romance goes down as one of the greats for me.
A
We got American. I got married to the true romance theme.
B
You did?
A
I hired like a. I tried to get a marimba player because of the bum, bum, bum bum. But they're like, there's one guy and he's in Oakland. You have to fly him down. I was like, and you have to fly him and his marimba down. And those things are huge.
B
They're big.
A
So I just got a guy, a local guy who plays steel drums. It was pretty, pretty sweet. Oh, if I had to. My go to 90s movie is. It's tough because my favorite movie of all time, since I saw it opening night, has always been Goodfellas. But if I picked one that wasn't Goodfellas, I'm gonna go casino.
B
Oh, that's another one. Sharon Stone.
A
Ooh, God. The whole movie, movie star shit.
B
That whole opening sequence is like cinema Porn.
A
Oh, God.
B
You know?
A
Yeah.
B
It's like, God, Marty Scorsese is just the best.
A
He's the best. He's. He's the greatest. And I watched his documentary and I. I mean, watch the entire thing and it's just like, he's the coolest, sweetest man. I love him so much.
B
I know. He's the Best by the Pulp Fiction. I mean, the thing about the 90s is like. I mean, granted, I think the 90s was one of the great times for art. Whether it be rap, like, you know,
A
grunge music, nevermind, 10 and the chronic and Doggy Style, I think all came out within like a year.
B
Yeah. I mean, it's. It's insane how like great music and great film was being pumped out in the 90s especially.
A
Yeah, yeah.
B
There was a rebelliousness that, that, that we loved. And I still have a bit of that rebel in me, but she's just a little scared.
A
She also has three kids.
B
She's a little scared to be too rebellious. But no, there was this. There was this. There was this sort of like, you know, like, like fuck you to the man.
A
Yeah. It was the kind of. The result of just like it was. We're done with the 80s. Reagan's over.
B
Yeah. Corporate America. Corporate America is dest our world. You know, art was like fierce and fiery and experimental.
A
Yeah. Indie film, like, indie film just blew.
B
Took off.
A
Yeah, it's. It was. It was amazing.
B
It was such a cool time.
A
With the understanding that it could be considered a sin to remake a classic film.
B
Okay.
A
If you could remake any 90s movie, what would it be? You're not going to improve upon it necessarily, but just for fun. Just for fun.
B
Probably Boogie Nights. Oh, it just. You know what I mean? Like, not like remake it. I would never want to like remake.
A
No, but just. You just want to have fun on set.
B
I just want to be in it.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
B
You know what I mean?
A
Yeah. I would love to be Roller Girl.
B
I want to be.
A
Yeah, I would. I would. If we've. We did a remade in I'm Roller Girl. Can you imagine? Here's my pitch. I know people are going to get mad and say, this is bad. We remake Pulp Fiction with the people from Running Point. All right, so you would be Uma. I think I would be John Travolta.
B
Of course.
A
I think. Well, he died. Travolta dies pretty early, though. Maybe Scotty's Travolta. Drew is Sam Jackson.
B
Great.
A
I am Bruce Willis.
B
Good.
A
Brenda is Maria de Medeiros.
B
Perfect.
A
And Thoreau is ving rhames.
B
I mean, hilarious. It'd be awful.
A
All right, Kate Hudson, I'm gonna ask you. Oh, you're gonna ask me a question? You're asking me a question now? Now? Again, totally random. Pick any card you want.
B
I haven't seen any card.
A
Any card. I haven't seen any of them.
B
I'm gonna do the one that I already suck. So it's kind of fun. Question. The world's most expensive taco is served at a luxury resort in Los Cabos, Mexico, and built from ultra premium ingredients, including Kobe beef, langoustine almas, beluga caviar.
A
Oh, sounds so good.
B
We're going.
A
Let's go.
B
Today, black truffle brie cheese salsa, used ultra aged anejo tequila rare civet coffee.
A
Sure.
B
And it's all wrapped in a corn tortilla infused with gold flakes.
A
Oh, my God.
B
How much does the most expensive taco cost?
A
Cost? Oh, my God. So it's got langoustine, wagyu beef truffles. Gold. The gold. I'm, like, off. I don't need to eat gold. I don't need to eat precious metals.
B
You. But you might.
A
I would suck it down so fast. I'm going to say this taco costs something like.
B
Do you want a hint?
A
Yeah.
B
Yes or no?
A
No. No. I don't want a hint. I'm going to say this taco costs $500.
B
Can I give you a hint?
A
Yes.
B
It's more expensive than some cars.
A
How big is this taco? What the what? It's more expensive. Okay. I'm gonna take the cheapest car, which is probably like a smart car or something. And so I'm gonna say like, $12,000.
B
No, $25,000.
A
Okay, okay, okay. Listen, listen. We have to shut this down. This is outrageous. You have to literally be like the Sultan of Brunei.
B
Yeah.
A
To be like.
B
Yeah.
A
My favorite snack. I like this taco. It's kind of weird.
B
Cut to you and I on the plane.
A
Oh, the wagyu oil melts in your mouth.
B
You're like, we need one more.
A
One more. We'll split it. We'll split it. And then our bag of chips and salsa. How much is that? Four grand. Great. That's outrageous. Oh, my God. Because I say I don't mind. I don't mind, like, paying premium prices for some things, but, like, when I feel like I'm getting taken advantage of, that's when the Chicago and me comes out.
B
Yeah.
A
Once I put on my glasses, you
B
don't have to be.
A
Whoa.
B
From Chicago to feel like you're being taken advantage of.
A
That is true. But we are. We excel at that. Okay, this question is about alcohol.
B
One of you and I, we.
A
We love it.
B
This is our. We love our. We. Well, we love cocktails.
A
Cocktails. We don't like.
B
I mean.
A
Well, come on, give me a break. I'm only human. You love Greece as well.
B
I love Greece. Oh, this might get weird.
A
Imagine you're in Greece with your family. You're enjoying Greece.
B
It's just.
A
Well. Or some mezzy appetizers.
B
Ooh.
A
What Greek aperitif might you be drinking?
B
Oh, Mystique or Uzo.
A
Uzo is the correct answer.
B
Well, do you know about Mystique?
A
No. She was one of the X Men. Right.
B
And most beautiful. Like, it's more of like an after dinner.
A
So Digestif.
B
Digestif, yes.
A
Yes.
B
And it's from the SAP of the trees. And it's beautiful.
A
Don't worry, you're gonna love it, baby. It's the SAP from the trees. And Daxy. Don't worry about it.
B
And you say Yamas.
A
Yamasandaksi. And Daxi. Bonus question. Uzo is made from the seeds of what flowering plant?
B
Fennel.
A
Close. I think they are in the same genus. It starts with an A and it sounds like button and the seed. Oh, Kate Hudson. Two for two. I want to say you're batting a th, right?
B
Yeah.
A
We love cocktails. What is Kate Hudson's favorite regional cocktail? This could be a Mai Tai in Hawaii. This could be a Manhattan in.
B
Interesting. I would say a nice, beautiful fall, crisp day overlooking the Tuscan mountains. With a Negroni.
A
Oh, you love your Negroni.
B
I love a Negroni.
A
That was. I was gonna say Negroni, but I also. I do love you. Ever had a vucare? I love a vucare. That's a New Orleans.
B
Maybe we need a different podcast.
A
The booze podcast. And we would have this. The sponsors. We would have.
B
Oh, amazing. Or we could just do like a 10 minute YouTube.
A
This is on camera where she said she would agree to do it.
B
We could do a 10 minute YouTube tutorial.
A
Oh, my God.
B
We would kill.
A
Oh, my God.
B
That would be the best legitimate.
A
I don't even want to do this shit. Let's just do that.
B
No, we get.
A
Yeah.
B
I mean. Okay. Yes.
A
Okay.
B
All right. Okay, great. Imagine what our set would look like.
A
We would both be in swimsuits in a giant martini glass.
B
Yeah. And we'll steal Seth. We'll steal Seth's idea.
A
That's our Idea. Now, that's not his intellectual property. Oh, what, he created alcoholism? I don't think so. Sorry. Seth.
B
Seth, you know, when. When. You know, when Seth, you know, has to go, too, because I guess everybody eventually has to go in this day and age.
A
Then it's our time. You love Negronis, and I have made you a treat before. I made you a clarified Negroni.
B
Can you explain what that is?
A
Clarified Negroni is you take a classic Negroni and then you introduce milk or any kind of fat, and you let it sit, and then the. The harshest parts of the alcohols will kind of fuse with the milk fats from the. The milk. And then the next day, use a cold brew strainer, and you strain it, and it takes a little bit of time. It's drip by drip, but you are left with this beautiful. It tastes like a Negroni, but it's much more well rounded.
B
It's like. It's like.
A
It's magic.
B
It's magical. It's like. It takes. It's almost like if it's like in a. It's like mastering a song. Do you know what I mean? It's like when you master a song, you can play it in any. In any speaker and it just sounds great.
A
I'm a singer, songwriter.
B
It's like. It's like that with alcohol. You literally. It takes away anything that is.
A
It's a real treat. It's a treat. It's a treat. You and I, when we talk about food, we are disgusting, I find. And people get, like, angry when we do. Like, Scott McArthur will be like, oh, I made potatoes this weekend. I put rosemary salt on it. And you're like, oh, shit. Oh. And Scott McArthur like, looks at us like we have two wrong guys greased up hogs.
B
Oh, yeah. It's insane. And I'm like, how did you. How did you cook them? You're like, well, I took the thing. And I'm like, oh. Oh. I'm like, did you smash them down into the.
A
It's like if, like, two. And I don't mean no shade. Morbidly obese people were having orgasms, is how I would describe you and I having this type of way, as we've discussed many times. Be honest, when we go to dinner together, we come just shy of lady and the Tramping food, where. And again people will go to. Every once in a while, we go to dinner with Drew Tarver, Scott MacArthur and Dave Stassen, and they're all annoyed because we were like, we'll Order everything. Me and this lady right here will take it all.
B
No one. No one orders, no one gets an opportunity to.
A
It's very emasculating.
B
You start doing all the ordering, and then I'll go like this, like, oh, the mushrooms. Yeah, we need the mushrooms.
A
Did you get the cabbage?
B
And then I'll go out, and Scott's
A
like, I'm not even hungry. And it's like, shut up, bitch.
B
And then we just sit over, like, did you try this yet? You got it, Ethan.
A
Oh, it's so good.
B
So we basically have to sit next to each other when we're. When we're eating.
A
Unbearable for everyone else involved, but we
B
have a great time, and our partners want to leave us when we do it.
A
Yes. Yes. Erica's like. She's broken her.
B
I love you.
A
I've broken her, though, when it comes to this because she's just like. Like, she'll sit down with. When I go to dinner with other couples and I just order, and she'll look at the other couples like, I'm so sorry I have to live with this. I'm so sorry I have to live with this. Hog.

actually going to ask you. No, no, no. You're asking me a question. You're asking me a question. Here we go. Okay, here we go. I got the last one wrong.
B
I think one of the world's most recognizable landmarks was nearly built in a different city. Question. What iconic structure was turned down for an eyesore before being built in Paris instead? And what city turned it down? Okay.
A
All right. Okay. So I'm gonna say it's. It's either the Arc de Triomphe or the Eiffel Tower. I'm going to say it's the Eiffel Tower. What city turned down the Eiffel Tower? I mean, my mind is going to either like. Like somewhere in Austria or. Or England. So I'll say London.
B
You're 50.
A
50, 50. It is the Eiffel Tower, but it's not London.
B
It's the Tour de Fel.
A
The Tower d'. Efel. Thank you.
B
Thank you. It was Barcelona, really.
A
They turned it down. No, no. We already have La Forambluff. We don't need this stupid power.
B
I mean, by the way, how could they say it's an eyesore? It's so beautiful.
A
It's gorgeous.
B
It's really beautiful.
A
I know. It's beautiful. Especially lit up at night. I mean, amazing. I saw you, by the way, in your little French talk show where you're like. They're like, oh. And you go, maybe. And Hugh Jackman. And it's like, oh, my God. Of course. She speaks a little French.
B
I don't speak. Anyway. I understand everything, though, so it's one of those things where, like, even though I can't, I don't have the confidence to communicate. I hear people, like, talk shit all the time. Yeah, yeah. That person doesn't like me.
A
All right, I'm gonna ask you another question right now. And this is.
B
I want to do this all day long.
A
Oh, well, we got the speed round coming up, Mom.
B
Okay?
A
So don't you worry. This is about something near and dear to your heart that you are, which is a female singer songwriter.
B
Yeah.
A
And this one is about one of my favorites.
B
Okay.
A
The great Joni Mitchell wrote about paradise being paved over for a parking lot in what song?
B
Pick up a parking Lot, A paper and ice Put Up a parking lot.
A
And I'm trying to think of the lyrics.
B
Come in, Uncle John's man.
A
It is. I'll give you a hint if you want one.
B
Well, no, I think it's Yellow Taxi or Taxi Cat.
A
I'm giving it to you. Big Yellow Taxi. You get that? You get this. Okay, Bonus question. Big Yellow Taxi is correct. Bonus question.
B
Okay.
A
While Big Yellow Taxi has been covered several times, one band has the second most successful version, peaking at 42 on the Billboard charts in 2003. And if you think of the chorus and the other voice, you've heard it. It's a relatively distinctive voice. And I'll give you a hint. It is a male.
B
Yeah.
A
Band.
B
I feel like it's like one of those things. It's like smash. It's like. It was like when. Like, Smash Mouth did, like, you know, I'm a Believer.
A
You're. It's in the same time zone, but it's. It's a different band. It is a little more of a funky.
B
Yeah.
A
White funk band.
B
It's. Listen. Not my fave. Not my fave. It was the Counting Crows.
A
Counting Crows is correct. Kate Hudson, you stay Batting a thousand.
B
Boom.
A
You stay. Joni Mitchell. I could see you in. In my mind's eye, picking you up and dropping you into Laurel Canyon in 1968. You're a singer? Songwriter.
B
God, I would have slept with all of them. I would have slept. No, I would have been Bush.
A
Would have been your Bush would have been out of control.
B
I would have had so much fun sex with so many rock stars.
A
That was the place to do it. I see. I. As you know, I. I don't have any musical talent, but I would will myself to be part of that community.
B
I would be the guy that gets it def.
A
You know what I mean? Like, guys come over. I got a nitrous tank.
B
I'm feeling. You'd be getting more than nitrous. I have a feeling. I'd be like, ike. Ike, I need to take you to the ocean.
A
Have you done nitrous before? It's really fun.
B
Can I tell you something?
A
Yes.
B
I am such a prude.
A
You are. You are. I don't mean that way, but I mean with drugs. Because I'm always offering you coke and you're like, no, I'm good.
B
I am such a prude. Yeah, that. I had a moment one time, and I was on the tour bus back in another lifetime in my 20s, and everyone was doing nitrous in the back of the bus and whatever else they were doing. And I have a diary entry that's one of the funniest diary entries. I was in the bottom bunk, and I'm writing to myself, I'm 21 years old. And I said, I get me off this bus. You would have been in the bus.
A
Still been on that bus. It would have been parked on Sunset.
B
This is the best
A
I. I remember, like, in, like, 1995. My friend's dad was a priest at a. Or a reverend at, like, a church in Chicago. And one of the parishioners died and left the house to the church. And our friend's dad said, you guys can just watch the house for me. And we. I don't know who was our nitrous hookup, but we did nitrous all summer. And it's really fun, but it makes you fucking stupid.
B
Thank God I had. Not that smart.
A
I'm not. If I had done that summer, I would have split the atom by now. I would have figured out cold fusion. I would have figured something out. And I guess what. Guess what? I still do that shit. You know why? You know what? You know, when I do it now, though, I get. I get a little Bit of PRP done to kind of stop my hair from falling out a little bit every once in a while. And I go, right. And I go. And it hurts. They are shooting like needles in your scalp. And then the guy goes to me the second time, I go, he goes, oh, I forgot. Do you want nitrous oxide? I was like, yes, motherfucker. And now I love it. I sit there and I'm like, have you seen Shangchangu?
B
She's my friend.
A
And I just want to say, as much as I've done nitrous and every once in a while back in the day, other things, I don't condone it. And if you have some, you should send me a direct message and give it to me. We'll get rid of it.
B
Yeah, because it's got it safely. It's got to go.
A
It's gotta go.
B
A place that, you know, just a
A
special place I know where you can put it away. And they get rid of it. But we do not endorse that on this show. No, but got a hookup. I want to know who it is so I could turn them into the police, because this has to end.
B
Wait, is it working?
A
We'll do this podcast again and I'll have like full Turkish hair plugs.
B
Be like, oh, and. And Tokyo. And you'll have been to Tokyo where?
A
I mean, so, okay, so I'm at dinner with Kate one time and we're talking about plastic surgery. And as a joke, I go, maybe I'll get some. And in the same breath, you pull out your phone and go, here's what I've been thinking for you. And it's a Japanese website. You're like, it's just the eyes. They can do this with the eyes. And for like a minute I was like, jesus Christ. But then I was like, oh, I'm gonna get this. I'm gonna get this procedure.
B
You're like, I'm like, we can make a trip out of it. We can bring all the kids. We can go to Tokyo. And there's this genius Tokyo eye doctor who does the most beautiful.
A
Just imagine Eric and the girls. We're gonna go to like, like a Buddhist temple. And I'm just bandaged with ice bags on my. Take pictures.
B
The thing is, is it's all I get on my suggest you reel picture. I know every surgeon in the world.
A
Yes, I got. I think because of you, my feed started getting. I was like, damn, he did that shit. He looks good. Let me ask you this question, okay? I love the traveling wool Berries. Right. Group supergroup. Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynn.
B
Yeah.
A
If you could make your own supergroup with female singer songwriters with a cap of four.
B
Okay.
A
And you're in it.
B
Oh, any era.
A
Any era. Historical. You could. You could say Laura Branigan if you wanted. Rest in peace, Queen.
B
So it would basically be like what Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt did. You know what? Olivia Dean is an amazing alto.
A
Wow.
B
I would go even lower with a Nina Simone, and then I would do the sort of mezza alto and then the soprano. I'd probably. I'd probably bring in like, a Dolly. Like something a little bit more. Maybe not in that country, like a little more like. Yeah, I probably. Dolly would be interested.
A
Olivia, Nina Simone, Kate Hudson and Dolly. I'm. I'm. I would like to be your manager.
B
Wouldn't that sound pretty? I think that might sound really interesting.
A
That's a. That's a. That's like the full spectrum of the female voice, almost most.
B
I also feel like Linda Ronstadt needs to be in there somewhere, but, you know, because she.
A
You can do whatever you want. It's your band. I'm just the manager. I just drive the bus. I'm Reuben Kincaid. Okay. Song. Song Blue to me. One of the reasons I loved it so much is because it really is about music and this legacy kind of of this musician through the lens of these other people. But if we're going to make. If you're going to make a conventional biopic, what band? Oh, or singer.
B
It's Fleetwood Mac.
A
I have fucking Fleetwood Mac written down.
B
It's the great story you've got. So there's so many pieces. The story's amazing. Their love story is so.
A
Oh, my God.
B
Powerful.
A
Here's my pitch. You were playing Stevie Nicks Dream. I put Dakota Johnson as Christine McVie.
B
Oh, great. Love it.
A
I would like to play Mick Fleetwood, but let's be honest, he's a little taller. So we'll give Jacob Elordi that one.
B
Love, Jacob.
A
Matthew Reese looks like Lindsey Buckingham, by the way.
B
So does Bradley Cooper.
A
So does Bradley Cooper. I. If I'm directing this movie, it's. It's really less about the music and it's all about the sex. And we would see a lot of it.
B
And drugs.
A
And drugs.
B
Yeah.
A
We're seeing it all. We see. It's. It's a raw performance.
B
I'm down.
A
I. I don't have a script. I have some sketches that I've drawn, and I'm going to send them to you.
B
And directing me in a sex scene is. Can you imagine? No, I could have. It was.
A
This is really, like, wow.
B
I'm. But, yeah.
A
Well, your friend Dakota Johnson has a restraining order against me. What the fuck? I'm trying to give her direction. My last question.
B
I like Dakota as Christine McVie. That's such a good idea.
A
That's a good one. That's a good one. I have two more questions about music. What was the first song you ever heard as a child?
B
Oh, that's so great. It's Raindrops on Roses. My mom would sing me Raindrops My.
A
That's my mom from Sound of Music.
B
That's my mom's song.
A
My mom loves that.
B
So she.
A
Moms be love and sound.
B
She sings that and it's not easy being green.
A
Oh, Kermy.
B
That's the big one. My mom used to sing that all the time, too.
A
My last musical question. I cannot talk to you and not ask an almost famous question. Let's assume in real life you are actually Penny Lane.
B
Okay.
A
And you could have been a band aid for any real band at any time in history.
B
Yes.
A
What are you doing? Who are you? Who are you aiding?
B
It depends on what my purpose and project is like. Penny Lane has projects, you know, she was like a project. She was like, I need to assist.
A
Yes, yes, yes.
B
And, you know, back in the day, I think Zeppelin would have been a little too tough.
A
Too tough, too. They were. They were monsters. Naughty, naughty, naughty, naughty, naughty lads.
B
The Stones. Kind of lovely, kind of great, Sweet. Kind of fun.
A
Yeah. Be there in that French villa and exile on Main Street. My favorite.
B
Pretty dark, though. Dark.
A
A lot of heroin. A lot of.
B
A lot of h. A lot of h. I would say that I probably would have had the most fun with the Beatles because. And I feel like. Yeah, I feel like Pennylene would have been able to bring those that. Together, together. And. And. And. And, like, instead of making it feel like they needed, like, a little bit of, like, hey, let's. A little Penny.
A
When I. When I watched the documentary. The Beatles documentary came out a few years ago, which was, like, the greatest thing I've ever seen, what struck me so much was how much they loved each other.
B
They loved each other.
A
They were boys. They were young boys. And the love that. Because when you saw, like, the original version of that movie, you were like, oh, it's all dark. And they. It made it look like they really hated each other, but they loved each other and they needed someone to bring that out of them. So they didn't have a stress. Oh, good answer.
B
Yeah. And I feel like George Martin was the glue a bit, but they needed a female energy to be. Yeah, possibly. You know, everybody. You know, it's hard to be in a band.
A
It's hard to be in a band.
B
But there's something about the Beatles.
A
You know, I was gonna say Beatles. I also thought, for me, I would do Sugar Ray because I love. I legitimately, like, think Sugar. I'm a fan of Sugar Ray. And I feel like that they would still be putting out music if I was around. Oh, my God, help them out.
B
He doesn't want to be putting out music. He's a nice guy.
A
He's actually a lovely guy. And I'm not. When I tell you, like, whenever a Sugar Ray song comes on, I literally bop to it. And my kids don't listen to energy.
B
He's always fun to be around.
A
Yeah, no, I'm very pro. I'm pro. Mark McGrath. I'm not kidding. I like the band Sugar Ray. Yeah, Come at me. Can you do me a favor? Can you ask me my third question?
B
Yes.
A
And then we're in the speed round.
B
Can I just pick anything out?
A
Pick anything out. Anyone you want.
B
Most filibusters today are procedural, but for decades, senators had to physically hold the floor, sometimes going hours without sitting, eating, or even going to the bathroom. Bathroom. Which U.S. senator set the record for the longest single person filibuster speaking for over 24 hours straight in 1957?
A
1957. Okay. I was gonna. I thought it was like, what's his name? Like, Cory Booker. But if it's 1957, I. It's probably like. Okay, it's probably Strom Thurmond. Yeah, baby.
B
You are so sexy.
A
Come on. Come on.
B
Oh, my God.
A
The thing that struck me about that, I was thinking the whole time, I was like, oh, my God, if I had to do a filibuster. You know what the secret is?
B
Cocaine.
A
And you're wearing a diaper. Like, I have embraced. I'm wearing one right now. I've peed twice during this interview. And you don't even know, do you? You don't even know. Okay, should we do a little. Oh, give me a little, because why not?
B
This is kind of fun. I mean, maybe I liked it. During World War II, British intelligence hid in plain sight and nice hotels. Which London hotel secretly served as a base for British intelligence and MI6 during World War II with explosive stored floors above unsuspecting guests rooms.
