I am joined by Suzanne French, Amy Sugarman, Tara, and Danielle are indisposed have prior commitments. They are unable to join us this time. Pop Culture Season seven, episode fourteen, Farewell my pet, Let's go Paris.

Culture stands out. I'm interested to see what's what's here because I don't have any real like, oh, the pop culture in this episode, so we shall see the look. The pop culture is not as good in season seven. It's just not it's not seamlessly worked in.

I was trying to make it sound interesting.

Oh, give it a go, give it a go. I mean, it's still interesting facts to hear about. I might venture to say our podcast about the pop culture might be more interesting than the actual pop culture, like how it's worked in.

But it depends on what we say. Yeah, okay. Paris gives Rory a copy of the lecture notes, but blacks out her own insights that were on the page. Paris don't give me that. Look, if there's one thing I learned in that first lecture is that there's not room for many women at the top ry. Gloria Steinem would be so proud Paris. Whatever the facts speak for themselves. Nadine Strossen Strassen is the head of the ACLU, not

Wow.

She later suggested that experience contributed to her choice to not have children.

Interesting.

Rory expressed to oh, who wants to take this?

One expresses to Paris how great Logan has been to her, And Paris tells.

Her and that was so sad for Nadine.

That's yeah, yeah, that was I kind of agree, Well, what.

A joy kill that sentence was. Jeez. Anyway, go ahead, mussels Paris.

How great Logan has been to her, and Paris tells her she never thought it would last. Paris says, I want to hang on.

I want to go back and read this.

You want to go back to Gloria Steinem and her friend.

No, no, no, no, I just want to read the sentence again to see if it has the same effect.

Like I thought it was sad that she never got to play with dolls.

No, it's not like I'm trying to erase something we're just.

Talking about from playing with dolls. And she says that contributed to her choice to not have children.

It's like, what a downer. I mean, I think and complicated.

I think we'd have to spend a lot of time with Nadine and her therapist's office to really get there.

They want to talk to that's yeah, Gloria was on.

Gloria is doing fine. Yeah, okay, let's go back to this. So Paris says, I'm just being honest. I mean, Logan Huntsburger between the women and the drinking. The kid was on the Colin Farrel Freeway.

Great line, I'm about to pull over.

Into the rock.

Colne Ferrell is an Irish actor who made his breakthrough in Steven Spielberg's film Minority Report. He's battled alcohol and drug addiction throughout his life, although he's like kind of awesome. Also, I love Colin Ferrell.

Oh, he's terrific. He's a terrific act.

Robert Downey Junior is an actor who found success in the eighties because he loves zero, but during the nineties had a period of drug related problems and run ins with the law. Remember he's on Ali McBeal and then all of a sudden it was like, oh no, he is now an Oscar winner for his role in Oppenheimer. I mean he's also iron man like. Robert Downey Junior is kind of an awesome example of like, you know, young actor, sort of brad Pack adjacent. Maybe he was

Is it out now or something?

Yeah, it's on Hulu. And it's it's boring. I don't want to be mean because I literally love Andrew McCarthy, but it's just boring and like half the people aren't in it. So I'm like, I'm sorry that you couldn't get them, but like, we don't need to do this until we can get them.

Yeah, I know, Molly Ringwold opted out.

And same with Judd Nelson, and it's like, oh, like's not it's not good. It's not good.

It's boring.

Sorry, Andrew, I love Mannequin anyway. Robert Donney here, Oh, I had said that already, but like Robert Daddy Jr. Way to turn it around. And I think he kind of gives a lot of credit to that lovely wife he has. Well, did you know well traveling in Sydney at the age of eighteen, Colin became a suspect in an attempted murder case. And I did know this from like two truths in a lie or something on Jimmy Fallon.

My lord, my lord, Wow, that was scary.

Suki says, you want programs, and then Michelle says, do you think When the Princess of Wales was in turred at Althorpe, the Spencer family was asked whether or not they wanted programs. Princess Diana tragically passed away in August nineteen ninety seven, where she is buried at the grounds of her childhood home at Althorpe Estate.
