B
Sorry, our mistake. Courtney, take your break. And to think that we're talking about the musical and we're not even talking about the movie.
A
There's so many iterations, different iterations of Elle. I hope Elle woods becomes the new, I guess, Elphaba. But I'm saying, like, I want Elle woods to be the equivalent of the joker to actors.

B
Yeah.
A
If you had to put a gun to our head and say, you can't say any cusses and talk about sex. We could shoot. We would say shoot.

We say, pull the trigger.
A
Pull the trigger. I'm not Gaffigan level.

B
They kept cutting to, like, celebrities in the crowd, and people were like, yeah, whatever. No response. Like the one Lindsay Lohan got. It's because we're so ready, Lindsay, for you, we're ready. There's no one like you.
A
She's. She's never looked better, ever.

B
Audiobook legend. I'll never forget when I was listening to Trick Mirror, like, she was talking about Neve Schulman. And there's a line where she goes, shulman punched a girl in college.
A
That's. That's why audiobook culture is important.
B
Killed it. Camila Cabello. You know what? I just want to say XOXO to you, Camila Cabello. I appreciate this album. I like the album. I listen to it quite a bit. I'd be giving you streams. And I have. I was a Fifth Harmony girly.

Yeah.
B
Welcome to my party. Your party.
A
223, J. Robert Oppenheimer.
B
I'm just going to let you take this one.
A
You know, he changed the world. He had an impact on the culture. They made a movie about him. And we walked out.
B
We walked out of Oppenheimer.
A
We walked out of Oppenheimer. But I will say the impact of J. Robert Oppenheimer, of, you know, Prometheus, he. He created. He created death on a mass scale. And that is. We have to acknowledge that, I guess.
B
So I started to bow into an Oppenheimer. I'm like, let's go. He goes, yeah.
A
222, Tate McRae.
B
If you forgot Britney Spears, don't worry.
A
Tate McRae is flinging puss up and down and around the other day.
B
Bowen. Bowen. Yang goes, I just wish she would hold still in one shot. Cause we don't know what she looks like.
A
We don't know what she looks like. I don't know what your face looks like.
B
It's okay. I'm okay. I'm just like, girl, stop moving, girl.
A
You are running. You are jumping around the stage, tossing your hair, your face, your neck.
B
Meanwhile, I like the songs. My favorite songs of hers are like, you broke me first in the more sense.
A
I'm like, yeah, yeah, you like.
B
Now the gays are like, keep moving, Tate.

A
The other one of us, the phenomenon. She is a phenomenon.

I mean, Jennifer's body never looks so good. And I will say there. There's a case to be made for that being the greatest film of all time.
A
Definitely. Can I ask you a question?
B
Yeah.
A
Have you ever been tempted to light your tongue with a lighter because she makes it look cool? And I am going to hate that. That's dangerous. It does seem dangerous.
B
I think that when I saw her light her tongue on fire, I was so aware of the fact that she was supernatural and a vampire that I didn't feel compelled to do it. But I think it was cool that she was doing it. Yes.
A
Number 219, Shiv Roy.
B
My favorite Roy.
A
Oh, absolutely.
B
And I say that with acknowledging all her complexity.
A
I don't really remember much of the show that doesn't involve her.
B
Yeah. I would say she is the female lead character of the show. And so us as sort of gay guys, it's so important to hit hard. And also when it's portrayed by the one and only Sarah Snook, I will.
A
Say when Logan dies, her response, like, her Sarah Snook's reaction, that performance is like the thing that makes the whole thing 100%.
B
218 pasta. This can be anything. This can be tagliatelle. This can be penne. This can be spaghetti. This is pasta. This is an umbrella for all noodles. Yeah. What does pasta have to be? Italian.
A
I guess so. Yeah. Pasta is like an Italian product, right? Asia from China. So.
B
So you wouldn't call that pasta?
A
No, that's. That's noodle. But, like, the thing. The thing that the Chinese gave the Italians, the thing that the Chinese gave Marco Polo was noodles.
B
That's funny. I put Oppenheimer on the list and not noodles. 217.
A

A
I want him to sing Never Too much.
B
Never too much, Never too much. Never too much.
A
Okay, number two 16. Mia Thermopolis ranked higher than Anne Hathaway.
B
Well, Anne Hathaway is an actual royalty. She might be a queen. No, but she doesn't rule over an actual domain.
A
Domain. Genovia. Mia Thermopolis, the make. Oh. One of the iconic makeovers in history.
B
Mia Thermopolis was Sabrina Carpenter's 2024 of film for Anne Hathaway.
A
Wait, say that again.
B
I don't think I can because I don't think it actually syntactically made sense. But emotionally, I know the readers know exactly what the fuck I mean.

Well, so he was injected with the cells of an alien life form. Oh, my God. Named Jenova. And so then he goes has it, has a nervous breakdown and then starts to kill everybody. And then. And starts to plot to summon a meteor to destroy the Earth. It is one of the great stories of all time.

Oh. To say the house was kind of messy, I think is a huge understatement. Beau.
A
Yeah. Yeah.
B
I think if you gotta watch the movie again, that house was a damn right.
A
Yeah. Like, can you imagine hoarders being on back then and them going into that house, little Edie being like, well, you can't take that stuff away.

A
I'm going to give some tea right now.
B
What?
A
We wrote her into an SNL sketch when she was the musical guest. She did a cameo with me, my Don't Stop Believing sketch with Zoe Kravitz. She came in at the end and saying, don't stop believing with me. Then between dress and air, we were told to cut her for time, and I had to confront her at the end. She said, you know what she said to me? She looked at me. She said, I was so excited to make my TV debut with you. I've done wrong by Rosalia, and I will never forgive myself.
B
You have to make it right.
A
I don't know that I don't think I can.

B
Well, why don't you stop spoiling?
A
I'm sorry.
B
So Spice Girls, I think they were such a cultural moment in time. In. They came as like a pack of Skittles. You know what I mean? You wouldn't just eat just one color. You, of course, whenever you have Skittles, you have to enjoy all the colors and all the flavors. And I think that with the Spice Girls, they packed such a punch. They were a kick in the glass.

I don't think any of your wits are about you if you're calling it a big alien.
B
Like, if an alien came here right now. I'm tell you what, I would not say. You're such a bitch. Hey, bitch.
