[Mary Beth Barone]

The following podcast is a Dear Media production. Hey, can you come pick me up?

[Benito Skinner]

Yeah. What's wrong?

[Mary Beth Barone]

Nothing.

[Benito Skinner]

Are you sure?

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah. No, I just need a ride. Ride, ride. I just want to have fun.

[Benito Skinner]

Start your engines.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Take care.

[Benito Skinner]

I'm Benito Skinner.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I'm Mary Beth Barone and this is ride.

[Benito Skinner]

Trailer starts in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Ready? Hi. The Headspace guy.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Headspace sent me an email the other day that was like, stop apologizing for your feelings. That was a subject line. No, no, wait. Sorry, sorry. No, it was you emailed back. Wait, we have to redo. We have to redo. Start over.

[Benito Skinner]

Start over. All this. Come on. We're rough and tumble. I have a full eye allergic reaction on my eye. I have a rosacea mountain on my cheek. I haven't shaved. I'm home. I'm wearing super, super, super bowl, super super bowl merch. Super bowl merch. And I'm figuring it all out.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I'm fatherless. I am. I'm. I. I'm.

[Benito Skinner]

I didn't even hippie with fatherless.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It's great. I'm in grief mode. We're in crisis lockdown mode here at the house. I am in my apartment, which everyone can now see what the inside of my apartment looks like. You can see the cuck chair from article over there in the corner. Just glad that my entire interior will be on available on the Internet.

[Benito Skinner]

And I think that's good.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I think it's actually good.

[Benito Skinner]

I am in. In my office. Terry painted this so it's completely legal. Try me. Try to get me all posters dot com.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I feel like you don't remember the poster of the two girls in black and white that were making out with each other in the bed. You didn't clock that in college? It's like a very famous poster. It's like one girl is brunette. I think the other one's blonde. And they're. They're in their underwear and a T shirt and they're like making out, each on their side.

[Benito Skinner]

Well, this is same as if you showed me Morgan Wallen. I just wouldn't know who that was. And I'm sure I'd have a conversation with him and just I could get through the whole thing and I would not know. I. I was talking to Morgan Wallen. God's country's own Morgan Wallen.

[Mary Beth Barone]

And so that's the one that, that is because there's just too many names flying around these days.

[Benito Skinner]

Oh, you know what someone said to me? They said that, why did the Boise Zoo seeing lions have A threesome at the Boise Zoo. Why was that, like, Miley Cyrus archival? I'm like, because it's once in a million years. Yeah, like, that should be so easy. Wait, I'm going to pin you really quick. Keep all this. Okay. There we go. I was just seeing it all too much. I was very much, like, being perceived by myself. It was terrible.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I know. That's really scary, I guess. First things first. And, like, I do want to just say this. So this is our first recording that we've done in a while because we had banked a bunch of episodes. I don't know what is going to come out of my mouth today. I'm excited to find out, same as you.

[Benito Skinner]

Oh, no, totally. And can I just say, me and the daughters, like, we're in the car with you. Whatever you want to say. I cannot believe you're here. I cannot believe you've done comedy since. I cannot believe you're glowing. I look terrible, and I have no excuse. It almost sounds like as if this is the first time, like, you and I have talked about this, which I did. Just want to get a number on how many calls we've had, and I, I, I don't think it would make anyone feel better about either of us. Can I just say, Mary Beth and I do share a manager, and she had some thoughts on how many times we had called.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Do you have account? Is there a way to know?

[Benito Skinner]

Okay, are you ready? Do you want to start on June 30th or when should we start this?

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah, I think June 30th is. That's a good place to start.

[Benito Skinner]

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I mean, this is going to be interesting.

[Benito Skinner]

Triple digits, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37. Look at this little. Oh, my God. There's this incredible little streak where every time next to your FaceTime, it says 2. We were just like, 2, 2, 2.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Back to back to back.

[Benito Skinner]

I feel strong that we're right around 50.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I'm thinking it's even more.

[Benito Skinner]

But really, I think that was pretty close. But you're forgetting that the texting.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yes. And I forgot what day it was actually, which we'll never say on the pod. But I wanted to just say that I really appreciate everyone's sweet messages. I'm currently not able to really, like, internalize anything positive, so I'm excited to revisit everything when I am able to. I think it'll be nice to just have that right now. I'm not in a good place. I would say.

[Benito Skinner]

Well. And that is healthy and fair. And please stop apologizing for your feelings.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Please, for the love of God.

[Benito Skinner]

As calm or headspace ass? Which one?

[Mary Beth Barone]

It was calm. It was calm.

[Benito Skinner]

Okay, Good girl.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It was for sure calm.

[Benito Skinner]

I talk about you all day. I had this one video where it was like, me moving my hips, and I'm like, you're so fixated on my hips. Pov. You're fixated on my hips. You can't hear me talk about Mary Beth, but that is me lately. And can I just say, you are the strongest person I've ever known. The fact that you. The work that you've done the past two months while all of this was going on and something else really awful happened to you, I just am constantly in awe of you. I think for you, I'm fan first.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Wow.

[Benito Skinner]

Can I just say friend second? I'm fan first. I love you so much. It's like.

[Mary Beth Barone]

And I just love your family.

[Benito Skinner]

And this is. I'm, like, slightly uncomfortable right now because it kind of is this weird feeling of. Of it feeling like this is the first time we've talked about it, which I'm like, we. There's a lightness to how I'm doing this, and I'm like. I swear to God, the. Like, some of the. The tougher calls I think are. Are private.

[Mary Beth Barone]

We wouldn't do those on the podcast. I feel I have a. A great support system, and that has been essential to me, and my heart goes out to people that don't have that. I feel lucky in a lot of ways that I have so many friends and. And my family really there for me right now. I will say something that I have not shared, and we might cut this. I don't know. We probably won't. But I have now, count em, gone through two huge breakups in the last 12 months, and my dad died, so I definitely think this could be a villain origin story. I don't know what's gonna happen. I have a lot of love in my heart still. I don't think I will go that. I just don't know what's gonna happen. I just don't know. And it's just been a really difficult time. I feel very, like, numb right now. That's why I'm like. It's. I'm. It's just. I don't even know what to say.

[Benito Skinner]

Yeah, it's very much. Can we skip to the good part? But, like, for real. But for real, like, okay, can I say two things that you've done that, like, through this, I just love you so much. I'm so sad. But also, you're making me laugh so much. Like, you're so out of pocket right now, Mary Beth, I will say it for you because you have to brag about your friends, and when they either someone on a text, you have to tell them. The first thing I was going to say was, when you go, I've been getting a lot of sweet messages. That guy was like, yeah, yeah. I just came to the show tonight and I had a. I paid for a, like, white raspberry white claw. Yeah, white berry white claw. And it was like, you owe me money for $10. And you're like, sweetie, my dad died last week. Why send $10 to on Venmo?

[Mary Beth Barone]

And what a lot of people don't know is that I screenshotted that message to you. And I go, should I eviscerate this guy? And you go, decimate.

[Benito Skinner]

Yeah. I go, oh, honey. As a treat, of course. Hey, you don't always have to. And. And I don't think you always should. But every now and then, as a treat, like, this one woman, I remember, it was on, like, a Deliverance Richards video I did, and she was like, used to be funny before you got political. And I just said, like, you're not allowed to talk to me with eyebrows like that.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah, like, that was a huge moment.

[Benito Skinner]

No one with eyebrows that look like that is allowed to say anything to me or comment on anything I'm involved in. So I blocked her. And then, you know, I. I'm glad that maybe at least she returned to the mirror that night and thought just for two seconds, do my eyebrows look fucking insane? You know, probably. I bet she's still rocking them, for sure. But you deserve that so much. So that was one that I loved. And then your ex texted you, how you holding up? And I now quote this, like, every day. You responded, oh, I'm shattered, sweetie.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I had nothing else to say.

[Benito Skinner]

Sorry. Oh, I'm shattered, sweetie.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Are you holding up? And he was too stunned to speak. He didn't respond to that.

[Benito Skinner]

Not responding that. Sorry. Now I have to take this out. This is my big prop today. I. I really. Oh, that's gonna stick with me for a while. And then the whole cast was court. Very sweet. The sweetest man alive. He diced the whole cast. Like, how's everyone doing in the. You Know, in their, in their cities and stuff. And you go, hmm. Well, I'm just doing a lot of lying down and trying to find the witch that put a curse on me.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Well, I still have not found her, so if anyone hears anything, please let me know.

[Benito Skinner]

Well, you know what I said, I go, it's not a witch, it's a wizard.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah, for sure. And I'm opening a tip line just if you. Have you seen this wizard? I, I, I have no information. Besides, they're really mad at me. And the curse, whatever it was, it's working. So, yeah, it's been tough. I didn't really want to talk about the breakup. Like, it happened between seasons, which was kind of weird. And then I was like, I didn't know how much I was going to talk about on the podcast because we never really talked about the relationship that much. So I'm still navigating what it's like to just, like, have that stuff, like, I don't know, have a podcast where I really want to share everything with you guys. And we're still figuring it out. So I, we want all of you. Yeah. I'm just sad and I, I would love to come on here and just talk about something good.

[Benito Skinner]

And we will. I don't know when, but I have, like, a few things. We could talk about that.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Oh, I have a laugh. I have a.

[Benito Skinner]

My whole thing is that, like, I'm put here to be your jester. You're the queen of the court, and I get to dance for you like a little monkey. And that's all I really want to do right now. I just want to, like, I, I'm seeing you in Montreal soon. I was going to do a kind of, like, set piece today.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah.

[Benito Skinner]

For the pod, but I, I feel like I should do that in person also. This is so incredible. I'm watching you, and all of a sudden, I feel like I'm watching an Emma Chamberlain vlog. Like, I. When you said, I just, like, want to share with you guys, I was like, I'm not on this podcast. No, this is her space. And now I'm just like, I, as I said, I'm a fan first.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Well, it's interesting. You haven't really dropped bombs on the podcast.

[Benito Skinner]

Bombs. One day, I'll tell you about someone who really hated an impression of me and, like, ruined my life for a while.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Oh, fuck.

[Benito Skinner]

You get that? One day I will tell you that someone, like, pretty much.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Speaking of decimated. Well, what's crazy is that when we tell the whole story, we Were on the way to record ride when that happened and I had cancel.

[Benito Skinner]

I cried for like a year. It was like the meanest. It was just the saddest. I wouldn't say meanest. It's like people are, you know, it's pretty mean, babe. Jury. It wasn't the nicest message I received. I will say this one thing.

[Mary Beth Barone]

They said I haven't memorized. I could do it right now.

[Benito Skinner]

No, I know. And so does. So there's quite a few people. One of the statements was like, you know, people think you're cute. Like you're not. And I was like, you can take anything away from me, sure, but do not take away that, my love. So I would say my last, like couple years have been born in reaction to that.

[Mary Beth Barone]

To that.

[Benito Skinner]

So. But that's. That might be the only, you know, big. That's the big bomb I've got. I have no update on season two. I. It is not in my hands. I'm ready to go when Amazon is ready to go. That's my statement on that. But I feel like some people I don't know, some of the comments are like, you know, what are you doing? Get back to it. It's like, no, I would.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I don't have the power.

[Benito Skinner]

Yeah. So that's not. I don't. That's not my job.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Hey, you guys, before we start ads, I just wanted to let everyone know that I am performing my hour in Montreal and this weekend, which is of course famously known as Saturday July 26th. And if you come, who knows what could be in store.

[Benito Skinner]

Osea. And yeah, that's how you say it. OSEA has this, like Undaria algae body oil. Have you used this? I got like a little burnt on my back and it's truly delicious. Like I can't stress this enough. And I didn't have lotion. Then I saw that I had this and I was like, oh, wait, we're doing ads for them. I should slather. And I did. And oh my God, I was a dolphin.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Would you say that it was rich but never greasy?

[Benito Skinner]

Well, of course. I hate greasy stuff. Body oils are better for that. I don't know why, they just are.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Well, this one sure is. And it's clinically smelled like a dream. To instantly improve skin elasticity. The scent of summer bottled. Their iconic signature natural citrus scent features uplifting notes of mango, mandarin, grapefruit, lime and cypress. So if you're feeling a little low.

[Benito Skinner]

Oh yeah. You rub a little bit of your best selling Andaria algae body oil. Here's the thing though, if you want to know what Benny Drama smells like, it's that with a little bit of musk, little manliness in there for you.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I mean, what would you say it did for your skin? Silky soft, glowing, confident.

[Benito Skinner]

Well, and also, I'm not peeling. I thought maybe from a sunburn that I would peel, but it's. I know. Could you imagine anything worse? Oh, I bet you could. You've had a really bad year. But here's the thing. I'm sorry. There's that 100 watt smile I knew that'd get you. So Andaria Algae body oil is Osea's number one best selling product. One is sold every 30 seconds. Don't buy too many or Benny Drama can't get it. But it visibly firms and makes skin feel more sculpted and toned. And it leaves this like silky, soft and unbelievably glowing delicious skin. I bet you want to touch me, but you can't, you fool.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I have two things I want to talk about. One being the fact that we watched. It Ends with us. When I was in LA staying at your house, and we haven't recorded since then, we ordered Goo Kitchen multiple times. We did watch it in two sittings because we started late, but that was not a reflection of the quality of it. I think we were really both surprised by how good it was. And. But what was really cool was that we met two characters. Lily Bloom.

[Benito Skinner]

Lily Bloom.

[Mary Beth Barone]

And Ryls Kincaid.

[Benito Skinner]

And Ryls Kincaid.

[Mary Beth Barone]

So at one point.

[Benito Skinner]

So there's. So there's this Ryls Kincaid. No, at one point.

[Mary Beth Barone]

At one point, I sort of zoned out for a second, and a new character had come into the scene whose name was Atlas. But I was like, wait, who's that? And you go, oh, that's Truth Creep.

[Benito Skinner]

And it's. My name is Truth Creep. Tell me he's not Truth Creep. I'm sorry. It's like, immediately so fast.

[Mary Beth Barone]

No, you didn't hesitate for one second.

[Benito Skinner]

No, I just said it so fast.

[Mary Beth Barone]

That's truth, creep.

[Benito Skinner]

Yeah, it's like how you texted me and you go, have you seen. And just like that. And then the next text was Deacon Reeves.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It's Duncan.

[Benito Skinner]

Duncan. Oh, my God. Wait, can I just Wait. He should be Deacon Reeves. I'll tell the writers. There's one more inconsistency that I have to flag. It should be Deacon. He is really a total stud. Last episode. But I can't get over this scene that happened in. And just like that. Miranda is kind of like a spinster. And she's. Sorry.

[Mary Beth Barone]

She's socially. Socially inept.

[Benito Skinner]

All of a sudden, she's always eating something she shouldn't. In Carrie's kitchen, which Carrie is the biggest house in the world. Smallest kitchen. I love it.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Oh, that was a huge note from someone else that I know that watched it and also.

[Benito Skinner]

Really?

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah. They were just like, wait. Well, no, I think it was my sister Pam, actually. I was trying to place it. I think my sister was like, why would she have a gigantic, like, old home built in the 1800s or whatever? And then her kitchen is like. It's like this. It's like the servant's kitchen or something.

[Benito Skinner]

Well, it's so bizarre. And kitchen aside, fridge, smeg, fridge. Oh. Oh, my God. Please can everyone promise not to show my dad that fridge? Can you guys all. Can you guys all sign an oath to not Wait? There's that Hunter Watt smile that I love so much.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Sorry.

[Benito Skinner]

Means the world to see it. Sorry. Carrie is like.

[Mary Beth Barone]

She's a tyrant.

[Benito Skinner]

Oh, no. Are you ready?

[Mary Beth Barone]

I have. I have one, too. I have one. I'm ready.

[Benito Skinner]

Hey, Miranda, why don't you go yourself? Like, she's literally like, hey, Miranda, if you fucking say some shit like that again, I'll fucking knock your teeth out, bitch.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Wait, wait, wait. On the runners, on the runners. On the runners. Whoa, girl.

[Benito Skinner]

Is that my Mexican Coke?

[Mary Beth Barone]

You're gonna have runners in your house 24. 7.

[Benito Skinner]

Is that my Mexican Coke?

[Mary Beth Barone]

It's not just her Mexican Coke. It's the last Mexican Coke, which implies that there have been multiple. And this is the last one.

[Benito Skinner]

I'm so upset because I can't lie. Like, her saying, is that my last Mexican Coke is. So my mom coded that. I'm like, okay. You guys spilled with that?

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah. It's like, carrie, go to the store. You're on your last banana. You're on your last yogurt and your last Mexican Coke, honey, let's get a doordash in there.

[Benito Skinner]

She couldn't be richer. I mean, it's kind of like. It's a huge plot point that, like, she just couldn't be richer. And I'm like, yeah, no, totally. The woman asked herself what she had gotten herself into.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Into.

[Benito Skinner]

Now, if that isn't Nina drama.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah.

[Benito Skinner]

Here's my thing. I think everyone is so critical, and obviously, it's like, you know, fans of the show and they. They come to it with all these things. It's like, I don't know. I'm entertained.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Oh, I'm watching it. I'm glued to the tv. I'm not complaining. They're giving us more of the characters we love.

[Benito Skinner]

You're nobody until you're talked about. Didn't Goss teach us that.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Well, it's starting conversations. It's you FaceTiming me. I had friends here who also watching just like that. And you were FaceTiming me while we were watching Tropic Thunder because you kept hitting these sort of really pivotal moments in the episode, and it was just like we had been talking about it all night up to that point.

[Benito Skinner]

Oh, my God. No, I'm gonna do the Aiden.

[Mary Beth Barone]

When Aiden, when he spits on his hand, he.

[Benito Skinner]

He licked it like a. Like a panther. It was like a kitty cat. It was shocking. What's that? That should have been.

[Mary Beth Barone]

What's that? Accomplishing is my thing.

[Benito Skinner]

Oh, my God. Wyatt.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Wyatt.

[Benito Skinner]

That's one to watch. Wyatt's one to watch. For me, personally, he's one to watch. Yeah. I would say Carrie's kind of his or his villain origin story.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah. Which I don't know that it's deserved necessarily, but I really. And I just. Before we get into our rides, I do want to talk about Joe and the Juice.

[Benito Skinner]

So Mary Beth hit me with a new. Oh, can I say something to you? Sorry, sorry, sorry. And I have to say it with these on. Ready?

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yep.

[Benito Skinner]

Rihanna is Smurfette. That's it. So this is one of those things where, like, I had taken my wife out to dinner, and she says something to me. I can't believe I didn't know this story. Because it's one of those things. It's like you after Face Jim almost getting in Iraq.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It's exactly the same.

[Benito Skinner]

And killing my Lady Jane's Edward Blumel. Blumel. Blumel. Why did that just go. That it's blue. Why did. All of a sudden, I got insecure.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Was like, hey, it's been a while.

[Benito Skinner]

Trust. But, Eddie, if You're listening. Sorry, Eddie Obama. I never say.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Hey, hey. Can I tell you something? He's not so okay.

[Benito Skinner]

God, life comes at you fast. So. So here's the thing. I'm the king of the world. Very you. You. I'm the king of the world. So this is one of those things where I pictured it so vividly in my head that I have. Since you told me, I have laughed about it five times. Like, I'm not even kidding. Five times. I can't stop laughing.

[Mary Beth Barone]

You added to the doc. You said eating at Joe and the Juice in London, Paris in Copenhagen.

[Benito Skinner]

Paris, Copenhagen. It's very much like when Leighton Meester. In that one song. I'm forgetting which one, Somebody to Love, I think where she goes from Paris to Michigan. She says Michigan randomly. And it just reminded me of that. I'm like, I've seen this. It's like, wake up. Wake up. Like on a Saturday night. Like, I've been through. It's just. I don't even go to Joe and the Juice in la, but for some reason, they have taken over Europa in a way that I'm like, that started in Europe.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It started in Europe. It might have even started in Copenhagen. Yeah.

[Benito Skinner]

Well, it's so funny because it has such a weird LA attitude. Like, the signs are so la. It's like, juice. Yeah. I'm juicing. It's like, get juice.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I'm gonna pee my pants.

[Benito Skinner]

It's not. It's not Goof K Kitchen, by the way. It's much more like.

[Mary Beth Barone]

And it's not Jimmy John's either.

[Benito Skinner]

We drink coffee to piss. Come on inside. Don't you want to drink coffee? Cold brew. That'll make you what? Like, you know, we got the juice.

[Mary Beth Barone]

That'll make you what?

[Benito Skinner]

You know what I mean? But, yeah, I've been to three of them and eating. Yeah, it's just cool to eat a cracker sandwich, really. In some of my favorite cities I've been to in the past. Like, you know, wow, the one in.

[Mary Beth Barone]

London was really good in the world.

[Benito Skinner]

I went to the. The London one was right by my hotel. Oh, here he goes. Abro God, London again. But I went twice. It was. They did a really good job. I love.

[Mary Beth Barone]

You've talked about London more since you went for two days than I did the entire time I was dating a British person. So I am gonna set the scene once more. Joe and the Juice took New York City by storm when it opened. I want to say it was like 2016, 2017, 2018. They had a Few locations. They used to only hire male models. Only male models would be working there.

[Benito Skinner]

Oh, that was part of their schnick, I think. It was mostly girly pops when I was there. But they were, I mean it was.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Like, well, times have changed.

[Benito Skinner]

Yeah.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Also they would blast like club, club music. So when I worked at Soul Cycle soho, there was a Joe in the Juice that was like a block away. And when I used to work there, I would have to wake up at 4:30 in the morning to get over there. It was still pitch blackout and I. You have to open the studio and then you're having your lunch at like 9am and you've been up since 4:30. So I walked over, I just skipped right over to Joe and the Juice to, you know, gawk at the models and get a little gluten free tuna cotto. And so I wait in the line, I ordered a sandwich and then I left without paying or the sandwich. I just got in the line, I waited and I ordered and then I walked out and I completely forgot until I was eating a different meal at the studio that I had then gone to get. And I realized, oh my God, I. I ordered a sandwich.

[Benito Skinner]

There was a little toasty waiting for you. There was a cracker sandwich that was literally like.

[Mary Beth Barone]

That was just left like.

[Benito Skinner]

No, it's that. What's that thing where it's like when you're one of the cousins, you meet one of the other cousins and it's like, the fuck I'm. Fuck the fuck. Wait, I. It's so you. And I can see you doing all this and you realizing it too. It's kind of the funniest thing of all. It's so sweet to me. I don't know why. It's just like. It's you in your, your purest form.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah.

[Benito Skinner]

Just doing like, just working so hard. Sweet girl.

[Mary Beth Barone]

In a way, it was so bimbo coded that it becomes galaxy brain to just order food in a restaurant. Restaurant, that's casual dining and forget you did it.

[Benito Skinner]

Sorry. As you said that I just thought about recently where I got gas and I drove off with the thing still in the car.

[Mary Beth Barone]

What you did? Wait, those are such parallels.

[Benito Skinner]

It was so.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Did it fuck up your car? This is the first time hearing of it.

[Benito Skinner]

I could not stop laughing though. They go out really fast, by the way. There's like actually not to tell my girls to try it. I just started laughing at first. It scared the shit out of me. I thought the car was gonna blow up. I was like, I knew I Wasn't good at getting cast.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It's the scene in Zoolander.

[Benito Skinner]

Yeah.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Where they all go up in flames.

[Benito Skinner]

Which, you know, I'm dying to do for Halloween.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I'm just glad he lived to tell the tale, because that's really scary.

[Benito Skinner]

But, yeah. So Joe and the Juice. I. This is crazy. It's not from la. Do you get what I mean? Like, the color, the, like, all of the marketing. Like, I'm not trying to be little American. It's like it out comes from, like, you know, but I am just like that. Definitely. Our culture is not your costume.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Right.

[Benito Skinner]

You're pissing me off.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Wait, where are we going?

[Benito Skinner]

Who cares? Ride. I ride for fan edits. I think the art of a fan edit is so unbelievable. I showed you a fleabag, one that was set to Lord's David, and yes, I'll be talking about Virgin in two weeks. I have two more weeks to talk about.

[Mary Beth Barone]

That's pretty soon. That's sooner than I was thinking.

[Benito Skinner]

I'm more relevant these days. I'm more on the pulse.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah. It just feels like. It feels like we could sort of get nuked at any moment. So we kind of need to stay on top of things lately.

[Benito Skinner]

Exactly. Like I'm literally. We're out to Marion Cotillard' people. Like, we gotta get you in before this all ends. Please come on with us. Do not right now. Ridley Dangerfield, Truth Creep. That's Ridley Dangerfield.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Ryle's Kincaid.

[Benito Skinner]

Ryles Kincaid. So that just happened. Yeah. Truth Creep. That'll be a part of our merch collection. I think we should do merch. That makes no sense.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I really think it looks like AI wrote it, but we actually spent a lot of time on it.

[Benito Skinner]

Months and months. Mm. Okay, So I ride for these fan edits. There was a fleabag one set to David from Virgin. And I have never been so affected by something. And you pointed out something really beautiful to me. And I'll. I'll post a few of our favorites on Ride the pod that they're made by someone. Like, they're edited. They have to. I don't even know how they get all that footage.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Like, I don't either, because they get it high res. I assume there was some sort of template. You could just upload a. Like a. You upload like a. A link to an episode too, and it just chops it up for you. It is literally. I mean, maybe the teens have some access to something. I don't.

[Benito Skinner]

I think there's something. Because with overcompensating, there were some that felt like the same clips have been used that were maybe like.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Well, maybe they were able to get. I don't know. But when I wanted to make another one of Jon Ossoff, the first fan edit I ever saw was of Jon Ossoff when he was running for Senate in Georgia. So I thought, okay, I can't find the one That I screen recorded. I'll just make a new one. It is actually so difficult and time consuming. It's. It's tedious. And I think that these teens, wherever they are, I don't know what country they're in, but I'm so thankful. And wow. The fan edits of overcompensating. Just like I can't describe the feeling they gave me.

[Benito Skinner]

There was one of you that I'm like, I could lift a car after watching it. It's that one where it's like, I want it right now. I want to get fucked. That one I love. There's Sumi I want to be.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Wanna be Sumi I wanna be Sumi I wannabe Sumi I wannabe this.

[Benito Skinner]

The Sumi edits I love. I also love the. What's the one where it's like all she want to do is fudge? All she want to do is get naked? That one. It's. Sometimes it's weird because it's like there was one that was a mix of you and I that I was dying at because it was like all our sex scenes and just like we do play siblings in it sibling culture. But I was like, whoa. And then there was one. There were a few that were using the drop right before they show like sexy things of you. They used me calling Sammy the F slur. Which I'm going to say F slur because that is a sad scene in it as like drop. And I was like, huh, this is making me feel uncomfortable. But still, it's an art form. And oh my God, there's so there was one that mashed up the me and Carmen hug and with like all these like major like friendship hugs and.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Things that in cinema and in TV history.

[Benito Skinner]

And they did it to claws. And I was just like, I. I've like sobbed to these. I mean, have you ever seen yourself get got by a straight man on a fan cam? Upwards of a thousand times. Like, yes, we've all been there.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I have now actually. Yeah, it's art. It's creativity, I think just for people, I guess that maybe don't know what fan edits are. It's like they chop up a bunch of clips from the show and it's usually focused on one or two characters and they set it to like a really high octane song or like Pretty isn't Pretty by Olivia Rodrigo, which I really like that one of these two.

[Benito Skinner]

I love that one of you, but.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It'S just like it's bite size and it's just like it it is like candy. And I'm just like, I want more, more, more. And it's just, like, fun. It's fun to see how the fans take the, Take the show and like, create from that. It's very cool.

[Benito Skinner]

It's delicious. I've seen. I saw a Tony Soprano one set to Spring breakers this morning that fucking woke me up. I, I, I really, like, I can't stop watching them. The ones of Fleabag. There was one of that scene where he says, we can't have sex or I'll fall in love with you.

[Mary Beth Barone]

And on that note, I did call you the other day, and I said, since I can't feel anything right now, I'm having these moments of just full numbness. I was like, I think it's time for me to rewatch Fleabag.

[Benito Skinner]

And if that can't, then I think you need even more time to just rest and not ride for anything.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I'll just say that I'm resting.

[Benito Skinner]

There are so many unbelievable moments in that show. Like when she says, oh, I actually can't. Cause I'm just like. Then I'm just. I'm. I'm sick if I say this to you right now.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah, so.

[Benito Skinner]

But I do think, okay, fine. I'm just gonna say this one thing. I think the most genius thing in the world is when her hair looks really good at her mom's funeral. Because I just think that's like. It's so. She's so genius. That's so funny. She's like. It always lands in, like, keeps in the chic way.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Also, it's only six episodes per season, and it's two seasons, so it's really not even a big commitment. If anything, I wish there was more.

[Benito Skinner]

Well, I want to write for it. I think we should do a carpool separately. I'm just saying the fan edits can, like, I. If you see them on my story, maybe close your eyes because you just.

[Mary Beth Barone]

You're not ready, because that's assault.

[Benito Skinner]

Let's just say you're not ready for. It'll pass yet.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah, you're not.

[Benito Skinner]

You, you haven't done the work to get to. It'll pass.

[Mary Beth Barone]

But it totally.

[Benito Skinner]

You do it to cuck me. I. You've cucked me with it. You say it all the time, but.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Like, it'll pass is like a phrase. So it's just now it's like, sometimes I'll say that about, like, you know, rosacea, and you're like, don't say that.

[Benito Skinner]

Is it. Hey, can I just say one Thing about it. It won't.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It won't.

[Benito Skinner]

I'm addicted. Speaking of which, I also put in the In Our Notes app.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Oh, yes.

[Benito Skinner]

I was at the Americana. I think I had just seen Materialists. And there's a store there that's kind of one of those, like, wet seal offshoot stores. You know how there's only like. And they're all kind of called like, Blue Mango or something. So this one was called.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It's the wet seal offshoot stores known as Blue Mango and other.

[Benito Skinner]

Hey, it's a very painterly type. Like, didn't I say it's a painter? Marybeth keeps making fun of me for saying that Puss in Boots has a painterly quality to it. I don't care anymore. I'm too tired.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I love that you said that because it's just like. It's just whatever comes out is what comes out. I think that's beautiful. Everyone should be constantly surrounding themselves with people where they could say something like, it has a painterly quality to it. And the person celebrates. Smile. The person celebrates it, but they're also not gonna let it slide.

[Benito Skinner]

Yeah, well, of course they have to say like, hey, so that's not the English language, but like, I get what you were going for, but okay. So speaking of which, this store was called Addicted, but at first, the way it was spelled, it was E D, I K, T, E D. So I was looking at it, I'm like, what the fuck does that say? Addicted. And then for the rest of the night, I kept saying addicted.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It almost feels like something that Britney Spears could come up with, especially the way you're saying it.

[Benito Skinner]

No, it was. I think it's fully her pronunciation of. Of the word addicted. Addicted. There's also this. Speaking of fan edits, there is a Britney. I mean, the Britney Spears ones you talk about. I could lift a car. But there's one of her, like, best, just like obliterating interviewers. One that just. I guess this is less of a fan edit, more of just like a kind of a cheaper cut, if you will. But Mary Beth and I cannot stop doing her. At a press conference, I almost wrote for just this, by the way, that was on my list today.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I would be down to talk about this at length in the future, just for what it's worth.

[Benito Skinner]

Great. So, okay, I'll keep it on the list. Britney Spears being asked by a reporter at a press conference if I believe it would have been Justin Timberlake at the time was uncomfortable with her kissing her co star in Crossroads. And she said, no, it's just a movie. It's pretend. You're an adult.

[Mary Beth Barone]

You're an adult. You should know that. And then she goes, no, it's a movie. It's pretend. You're an adult. You should know that.

[Benito Skinner]

You know that. Addicted. It's literally like addicted.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Also, someone asked me. You sent me a clip of someone asking her, have you ever licked a battery?

[Benito Skinner]

Have I ever licked a. Have I ever licked a battery? And then she rolls her eyes. I was like, she just. No one's ever done it like her. Her on X Factor saying, I want to know who put you. Who let you on that stage? I feel uncomfortable with you even looking at me. Literally. That is. She is so Mary Beth coded on that X Factor panel.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Don't put me on. Don't put me at a judge's table ever.

[Benito Skinner]

I actually think you should be. I think one season of Mary Beth American Idol pitchy.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I don't think you should do this for work. Find a different thing.

[Benito Skinner]

All she want to do is get naked now. I have that in my head. Yeah. Send us your favorite fan edits. It can be of any show if they're overcompensating. Hey, I'd love that. All the time. Like, oh. Oh, my God. The. Like, the Carmen ones, the Haley ones.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Oh, we can post a dump. We can post a dump of our favorite fan edits. I mean, we probably won't, because everything we say we're going to post on here, we usually never do.

[Benito Skinner]

Lately it feels like we almost do.

[Mary Beth Barone]

We do. We do maybe 1 in 10 things we talk about that we're going to post. But I can post my Jon Ossoff one. I can post some grace ones. There was a really good one to Man Child about Peter. I mean, we have infinitely many.

[Benito Skinner]

What was the one that was like, it seems. No, none of me.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It seems. I was literally about to say the one that was, like, really vulgar and it was like a country song.

[Benito Skinner]

No, it was like, I ain't gay, but I do gay stuff. Yeah, like fucking dudes. I'm saying that. And the second I said that line, now I know all the words. I ain't gay, but I do gay stuff. Like fucking dudes in the back of my truck and little less.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It's Morgan. It's Morgan Whalen Wallen, Right?

[Benito Skinner]

I kissed Morgan Wallen when Lana did that. I keep thinking about it.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I have no comment. In fact, I'm just amplifying. I have no response.

[Benito Skinner]

Exactly.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I ride for fan edits. I think that Is clear based on how many I have posted and included in dumps and stories and things like that. How many I've reposted on TikTok. I had a freaking blast with just sitting back and watching the art that was created from the art that you created. And so I, I. That we created. And so I love it. I think they're just like good fun for the whole family. I was surprised that some of the fan edits could have like boners in them on TikTok, but I say, like, once again, we have no sex education in this country, so I guess that's what we have to do now.

[Benito Skinner]

Oh. One had my full ass perfect. And then it was just like you had to just say you were okay with seeing it, which I hope everyone did. Please, Come on, please. You got to see this thing.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah.

[Benito Skinner]

Isn't that crazy?

[Mary Beth Barone]

That they had to opt in?

[Benito Skinner]

No. That someone could have a crush on you and look you up and see that.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Mary Beth, that was such a non sequitur.

[Benito Skinner]

I know.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I miss that whole sentence.

[Benito Skinner]

You call someone 50 times and they can't read your fucking mind. Oh, look. And then you guys can finally see my phone background.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yep.

[Benito Skinner]

All she want to do is get naked.

[Mary Beth Barone]

It is crazy. I mean, as someone that has had many a celebrity crush, I like that I have the option to see the content that is made of them. And yeah, how cool is that? I mean, let's. If you have a crush. What a powerful tool. Looking at fan edits of the person.

[Benito Skinner]

What a powerful tool. My AirPods have decided to give me this really immersive experience of almost like I'm being on a plane where like it pops every now and then and kind of like there's like a really weird flux of hearing my own thoughts voice in this. But I think that's what's cool about a home. The home edit.

[Mary Beth Barone]

As it's the home. It's the home edit.

[Benito Skinner]

This is the home edit. Can we just call this episode the home edit?

[Mary Beth Barone]

The home edit. And I actually think. I know. I think we have some rides coming up that I'm excited about that we had planned a long time ago that I'm excited to do. But this was a good way back in. It's just so weird with the timeline of it all. Cause I'm like, people listening to the last two weeks probably don't even know that. That was like so long ago. That was like crazy long ago. And I had written this whole thing about my dad being sick and I read it on air and we did have to cut it because he unfortunately passed away between when we recorded it and when it was gonna come out. But I do wanna just send love to all the bronies who are experiencing grief in any way. And especially with sick parents. Cause it's just. It's the saddest thing.

[Benito Skinner]

I can't stress enough how proud your dad is of you. I know that because he's told me. And I love him so much. He's such a king. And he truly. He raised, like, six absolutely slay liberal, darling. Hot tall people.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah.

[Benito Skinner]

Oh, he really. He. Yeah, he tore that right up. And he knew it.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Yeah.

[Benito Skinner]

I'm just so. He's so proud of you. Oh, my God. You made him laugh so much. Like, are you kidding? That's his baby. Love.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I wrote many jokes. I wrote many jokes about him. Wrote many jokes. I want to say thank you to the Baronies. I love you all so much, and I know it. I feel like I sound even more monotone than usual today. And that's just what's gonna be for me.

[Benito Skinner]

I'm just like, can you believe how heavy the mic is? That's what I've kind of sat with for a while. We are just all in awe of you. I speak for all my kids because I know we all feel this way. And you being here. I am blown away. And I love you so much. And I've said this on probably one of our 50 facetimes. You're my bestie, and we are all gonna be right here, and we will take you as you are. And my God, you're out of pocket lately. You're making me laugh, girl. Jesus Christ.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I mean, it's all I can do.

[Benito Skinner]

We love you. Give Mama Baron a kiss for me this weekend.

[Mary Beth Barone]

I will. Wanna see her tonight?

[Benito Skinner]

I literally can't wait to hold her. Have a little pork. It's date night, girl. What?

[Mary Beth Barone]

She's looking forward to it. Love you, K. Love you, kid.

[Benito Skinner]

My name is Truth Creep. Oh, my. Exit.

[Mary Beth Barone]

Danny, babe, eyes on the road. Then you go.

[Benito Skinner]

Ride.
