"Party Time" (w/ Sasheer Zamata)

And you know what, I'm doing my best in fact suiting. And I went to the beach yesterday with a lot of friends and I was a half hour early to the pickup spot. I'm really making strides, little streets. This is a new leaf. So today I'm arriving early in Brooklyn. This is where we record the pod. Now truly we did it. We moved. I mean, do you feel like

a new man? And I feel like a new man and I have a new knowledge because I'm stepping in the Delhi around the corner and there's a huge picture of one Sorry Jessica Parker, and I have to ask because I'm culture stare, I say, I'm sorry, I noticed your giant picture of s j P. What's going on? Is she a regular? He says, No, she was in here once. I was like, okay, she just stopped in He goes, No, she was in here for two hours. I was like, what was she doing in here for

two hours? He goes she shot a movie here. I was like, what was it? A section of the City sequel. He goes it was a stupid movie called I Don't Know how she does. Oh. I was gonna guess not a bad movie and a very Brooklyn Heights were in Brooklyn Heights. It's a very Brooklyn Heights movie. You said, not a bad movie. I said not. I said, not a bad Brooklyn Heights movie. Maybe we'll roll that back later. UM, oh my god, you guys. We are so excited. Uh,

this is a great episode. You guys. I'm just gonna say, I'm gonna forecast where. I have big, big predictions for this one. And my predictions are Body Award Women, the Body Award winning app coming right at shore. We have an amazing guest. Let's go through the credits. We shall the host of party time and I don't want to say it's with her name, but I don't want to reveal of course, of course, so party time with the guest, and the next one is on July six at the Bellhouse,

and you must go. We've done it with our group and had a blast, so fun. It really is very fun. You gotta go. And some recordings video of it is on Above Average to check that out before you go to the show. Um, just so you know what you're getting into, honey, it's a it's an experience and variety experience, of course. And you can see her stand up special Pizza Mind on see so or the audio is on iTunes and Spotify. It's so good. It's look it up, look it up. Guess what you know? You love her.

It's party time, part time. Was very happy to have you here today. What's happy to be here? Of course? Slate it on our first I don't think so, honey, lot, thank you. I've been like pulled aside and people have been like, I saw you at that show. I loved it. Oh my god, you took that and gave it to Cat.

I didn't know, and you know what, also providing us information. Yeah, I didn't know that, and I turned that into a whole bit because it was like one of the first times I said that on stage, and I was like, oh, I see beats here. So I made it a gym. Yeah, it's solid. Guys, go back and listen to it by cats, and I don't think, Yeah, I should I explain what it is. It was. I don't think, so honey. Was about Frisky's cat food and how they have appropriated for

us by us. They took it and said, four cats by cats. It doesn't make sense. No cats that make the food nothing. And they took away from Fooboo, which is like a historically black owned, black provided provided clothing company, and they gave it to cats. Unbelievable. And you know what, This is what I loved about. I don't think, honey. I love the educational aspect. And that's what I say to people that may be doing the next I don't think so honey. If there is one, I don't know.

We may have posted some cryptic things on Instagram as if we're minions or something in the movie. It's just a numeral. It's just a numeral. Who do we think we are? I don't know. I just think it's so stupid. When I did, like, oh, I did a show one time and I said to bow and I was like, I want my name over the title, like a Meryl Streep and into the woods. I just think it's funny to like iconicize and you're nobody. Yeah, but I feel like that's such a wink, like people can't necessarily pick

up on that. I don't care this person is taking themselves that's true. Yeah, they might think it's sincere. And this comes from someone with her name and the title of her show with it's not even with it's the man a party with the name you front loaded. That's that's you know what. You gotta know what you're getting forgetting that. Yes, there's no understudy for the yes, right,

I mean tell us about the show we did. It was so fun, but like you're trying to like cultivate this like fun environment, right, Yeah, yeah, I wanted to feel like a party. Like it's definitely a show. It's a variety show and there's uh stand ups doing their stand up backs. But it's kind of like anything can happen, like people have done, characters, people have done like bits, Um we have music. You guys came on and that was so so fun. Um. Yeah, it's just like a

mix of things. I want the audience to feel like they are a part of the party instead of like a wall being there and they're like just watching a performance. And we have party games where the audience gets involved and like, uh, there's kind of an underlying of truth and everything kind of everything I do, really, but in this show in particular, like we have a game like honest Jenga where audience vers wrote down questions on Jenga

pieces and the performers will pull them and answer them honestly. Yeah. I know they all like kind of like big old truth question, like they really ask you to confront yourself. Yeah, so we the first time we tried it, we got a lot of sex questions were horny for some reason. And then uh, there was like a Trump question. This is sometimes shortly after the election is I can't remember how they phrased it. I was like, how could a

person vote for Trump? Or something like that, and I answered honestly because I was like, well, I could see why a person would, and like talked about like people I know in my life who have had more conservative views and why I think they got to that point. That's the kind of nice lapping entertainment you're gonna get party time. Honestly, yeah. I right after it happened, I was like, oh my god, when can we joke about

this because it is so real. But now I'm ready to, if not laugh at the situation because it is still very bad, like at least see the humor and a lot of the truth, like you're saying, Like I was thinking about my relatives that voted for him. I'm like, wow, you really got to like it's yeah, it's it's it's funny. I don't well, I mean I think I still. I thought I had some distance from it. And then I was just in like Central Virginia over the weekend. I

was in Charlotte's bell Um. It's my first time because okay, so I did. I was there because my sisters uncle's and law. Uncle and anton law had a lake house there lake Anna. I don't know that rings any beautiful.

It was very nice, but it's it's Trump country. Um. A lot of signs about how um immigrants are stealings, are stealing our jobs, like signs signs about it to meet like just like on the side of the road next to like a gas station, um, next to like a Wegman's and um uh just yeah, and it was I thought I had some distance from it, and then just being like inundated with that, I was like, oh no, this is I know, I'm still this is very still

very fresh to me. I don't know, but you know what, teach their own any and you're not in a city, you're going to find that because even on Long Island where I'm from, it's like most people, yeah here the bubble. I didn't write it, but it was. That was one of the highlights. I thought, Yeah, I thought I loved it. It was the first piece of significant trumbarra art that was. Wow, that was you know what, Yes, that was post the election.

It was post the election, and yeah, it was like one of the few things we did that was kind of jabbing at yeah, the other side, the liberals instead of just was that the week of Chappelle's episode. Was that the week right after the election or not, it doesn't matter, I can't remember. I think it was pretty soon after, but it was like this, um, it was just a very like like a whoa, like that's a funny way. That's like kind of the only week you

can joke about this right now? Because it's so soon. Anyway, Um, oh my god. Um sir, We're going to ask you what we ask all of our guests, which is what was the culture that made you say cultures? For me? I want to step in a cultural direction. Yes, you said, Okay, I could get interested in culture, for sure. I could. I could. I could integrate that into my my personal brand. I think the culture that I was first introduced to and like stayed in my life the longest was Disney.

You've come to the right place, thank God. Yeah. My I watched so many Disney movies and Little Mermaid was my favorite. I watched it over and over again. But it was until later when I was like, all this kind of messed up because she just traded her voice for guy literally a vagina. I'd rather have Vaina and

a man then speak. It's so I actually like, I think it might have been even Suity that brought that up to me, like, because she was really the one who like took the like blind en off my eyes and was like, look at you're in the machine, and she was like thinking about little murmurs. She doesn't even have a voice, And I found myself trying to justify

it and I was like, nope, there's nothing there. She literally doesn't speak and he's in love with the here's the thing, we can all have professor dad's and librarian mom's suiting on Disney And it was the only thing or like a worldly perspective at all. So you know what, Matt and I are fucking zombies for Daz And there's still fun there still, you know what, you just have to like toss away like any of the corporate just like have fun there because it is what it is.

Did you go to the parks? I did go to the parks. I remember going to I think Disneyland, and just this obviously left an impression because I still remember it. But there was a water fountain that changed colors, like the water when you drank it, like the water that's coming out with changed colors. And it took me years to realize it was a light. It was like I was like, this water is changing colors, and you're like

you're there. Yeah. I went by myself a couple of years ago, like I was in around Orlando doing a show and I was like, I have a couple of days a kill. I'm going to the Grand Floridian and to ruin the Grand Floridian. That's how you know, good for you. You're like, not only am I going, I'm going to stay in the Grand, I really go. I saw. I went to downtown Disney and saw us. I saw the Electric Light Parade. I saw I think, I think

the Animal Kingdom was closed. I couldn't go to see the Jam and Juggle Parade, which so I also worked at Disney. Yeah, I did the Disney College program. Um, so it was like my third year of college and then or like half a semester and a summer and uh, I walked on stilts in Mickey's Jam and Jungle Parade in Orlando at Wow That World. And I also was the Sebastian puppet Oh Oh my God for the musical

for the live show. For the live show, yeah, and we had these black light puppets and we were all in black clothing and had like a shroud on our face and then everything was dark and we kind of had these puppets floating in the air, but we're just walking on stage right right, and there was a door and exit that led straight out to the sun. So if anybody kind of crying baby or like needed to leave,

for some reason that they opened the door. You just saw all these adults walking on stage and holding puppets. Just the one thing that it's so funny because like not realizing it's a light in the fountain and then like one day you're like, oh, it's literally a light, Like come on. Like I remember being in Phen I was little and looking up and being like the sky is so dark and cloudy and black. It's like, literally, probably it's a ceiling. Yeah, it's not looking But that's

part They're good. I always call it theater. Sure, I totally forgot. You are actually very much a Disney and even just specific to the parks. Like Matt and I, huge part of our identity is that we fucking love the park and and I think you were actually sort of like in the same sort of dumb cast c I s t E cast of Just Park, the Disney

Park lovers. Would would you? Would you say? That's true? Okay, and nothing about being like but every cast member at Disney World is like a total like follower, like loyal, brainwashed willingly like I would willingly be brainwashed. I've been. Yeah, I was into it, but I didn't realize it until I left how much they got in there. Yeah, where were some of like can you think of some like little things that they did, like worm their way in?

They said that. So they because Jodians are called shopkeepers, and they said, we have X amount of shopkeepers employed, but really we have fifty because all of you are responsible to keep this part clean because this is your home and you want your home to be dirty. So even when I was off duty, I would walk around the parks and see trash and be like holding up my house, my house, and that is how it's so clean.

But that is actually brilliant operational stuff, truly, like they're they're caring about they're taking care of their employees, who then take care of like your consumer, customer whatever. Yeah, so it's it's actually very good business that makes a lot of sense. I've said on the podcast before. When I was there with my sister, we went up to the new Beauty and the Beast restaurant. I guess it's

our guest restaurant, and you couldn't get a table. I mean we booked a trip like one time, four months in advance and it was still so my sister and I, not knowing this like years ago, went up, and we're like, hey, can we get a table and she was like unfortunately, no, like we're all booked up. I'm so sorry about that.

We're like totally fine. We stepped to the side. The people behind us asked the same question, did not react kindly, but the girl was still like, yeah, oh my gosh, I still hope you have a magical day and it's so enchanting to meet you. And I was like, how is she doing that? Because like literally, like there's a certain basic human level where anyone would crack, but they don't crack. That's crazy. How oh although, no, okay, this is the one time I've seen a cast member cracking.

Was very recently a month ago. Oh yeah, you were just there. Yeah, I was just there at the Animal Kingdom with me, Michael Hartney, Soony Tamani, Eric Gerson. We all went and we went to Animal Kingdom. We went to go see like just the not the Safari zone, but it was just um where they kept all the

monkeys and um. And then there were mere cats who weren't that aren't technically monkeys, but they were mere cats running around and then Heartney like made a sound like like made like a whistling sound or like a like some sort of tongue clicking sound at an animal at an animal, and one of the cast members flipped out and was like, sir, you can't do that that like, um, sir, you cannot make those noises at the mere cats because they will get very agitated because they are trying to

do their jobs, which is to protect their families. And you're like, okay, unless that person that was like they're like that's why the one job there, job fine. I mean, but it was it was a little it's crazy to see the math like humans, you know, it was like being chastised. It like that's never happened to me in a Disney I mean, well at Universal Studies, they're like rolling their eyes at you. Popcorn all over the floor, garbage. I was at the six Flags and trash bill that's

not someone's home. I was actually there with Josh Sharp and we saw a kid have a seizure and he it was like it was the ride that like, um, you like sit and it kind of spins and circles around like yeah, yeah one of those Yeah so we haven't gone yet, but we're like walking to the swings. Yeah. I was just there with him and he's a little six Flags boy. Yeah yeah yeah, and uh, I mean they do have good rides, yeah, and you want a fun rides if you want the thrills, you want the

magic atmosphere. Yeah, and a seizure and fell on the ground and uh and so like someone radioed somebody, but it was like it felt like an eternity before anyone got there, and it was like just a bunch of sixteen year olds and I was like, where's the medic where?

And you know the park. The cast member and me kicked in because it felt like if we were at Disney, this would have been handled like that because he would have been underground in a second, because there's so many entrances all over the place and like all you gotta do is like hit a button a radio somebody, and then someone would have came with a cart because there is one close by, and then they would have taking

it underground to where the medic is. And it's like I was just so shocked that it was taking so long for this kid to be attended, to get helped it anywhere. Yeah, Um, this is a really quick story. Um. This reminds me of a story that I just learned about very recently. We have this comedian. His name is He's wonderful. I saw I saw him in a show one time and the last a couple of weeks, and he was wearing a Blizzard Beach shirt and I was like,

oh my god, Blizzard Beach, Disney World. I love Disney World, la lah blah. And he goes, yeah, my family gets to go for free once a year. And I go, oh my god, that's amazing. What like, how did you

guys get that hook up? And he was like, well, um, when I was young, when I was about like ten something years old, my brother and I were at Blizzard Beach and an umbrella fell on his head that like basically stabbed him in the skull on the top of a slide so that he was and then he pulled it out and blood just spilled everywhere, you can't believe. And so immediately immediately, like just medics, Disney part like cast members rushed up to him took him to the hospital.

And so and this guy and his mom were just kind of they just kind of left them there, and they will not that they left them there, but they had to slide down the bloody slide of his brother's blood got to the bottom. And then once they got out of the like a limb, they were escorted immediately to a limo a Disney like Disney paid for a

limo to drive them to the hospital. And then once they get to the hospital, a pack of lawyers just have all this paperwork that's just like sign here, signing here, sign here, sign here, just like you will not sue us, you will not like you know, just speak out against this to the media whatever um. And so they did. And then once they got back to their resort, there was there were just fruit baskets, gift baskets like everything swag from Disney and they get a free trip out

of every every year. And I'm just secretly a little jill. Oh my god, I was saying to myself. I was like, what I take an umbrella literally in the head, like maybe die to be able to go for free every year. And the answer is probably. I can't remember the pain now it seems like it didn't do any long term damage. Yeah, yeah, what happened is that's question. I think he's fine, well, very jokingly have to think he's a name out of this, because he definitely signed like any first and last day

said his job person doesn't under the bus. We can't get this man killed. And yeah, you know what he will. A sniper will kill him. All right, We're to bleep that out. Okay, Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I'm mad at Disney now though. Why I'm mad at them right now because of the Donald Trump of Fame thing. Have you heard about this? No? What is it? So? You know how in the Hall of Presidents, president is the presidents, and you know how unfortunately Donald Trump is

the president. So they took it down, and they took put the Obama automotronics in the back and like where it goes now, and of course now they have like the Donald Trump animatronics and now it's like the whole back line of presidents and Donald Trump is going to be like prominently displayed and he is going to give a speech. So there was like a movement that I may or may not have had a part in. I did make a change that organ petition and it got

overt signatures. So there was like people being like he shouldn't speak, like we shouldn't have to listen to it, like he's certainly unkind at the very least to say he doesn't. Obviously he says what he said about women, about racial minorities, about like his actions towards the LGBT community, just not not for Disney. So now they have come out and they said officially he is going to speak,

and like he will be. There will be a section in it where where he says this thing because they kind of cave because I guess, you know, isn't they will have a lot of drum voters rolling through there.

But it was pretty touch and go for a while because there were some articles that came out that we're talking about how the White House wasn't cooperating, they weren't sending Disney any audio, and it went all the way up to Bob Iger, who's CEO of Disney, who came out with a statement that was like we are still

discussing this. And then I was talking to my brother in law about this over the weekend and he's like, well, Bob Iger might run for president, which would be crazy, Like the CEO of Disney being president might be great, but it might be bad. I don't know what do we I don't know the kind of man sends in a car when you get impaled in the head, and it's like he runs a better business than the current president.

That is very much true, that's fair. And he knows how to be a diplomat because of the World Showcase at Upcot. He knows all the very all of them, all nine, their food, their dress, gifts, the movie that's most closely associated about their country. I love how they just took Norway and made it frozen. Yeah. When's the last time you went? Um? I did go to Epcot when I went as an adult couple of years ago. I just did it quickly that I didn't go all the way around the world. It's a quick park. Yeah,

quick park. Um any like specific besides Little Mermaid like Disney stuff that's like and like your experience at the park's obviously, but like favorite movie is still Little Mermaid. Yeah yeah, even though I know how it's bad for finis right, Like, maybe this is a better question. Rank and we can all do this ranked top three? Okay, okay, yes, Matt, you want to start? Yes, I would love to start. Now. Here's the thing. I have a number one, but I

have a couple of caveats with it. My number one is pocahonas now I know that it's troubling because this is not the story of pocahonas However, I like the story that it tells. It's a revisionist, but I do

like it. However, it would have been a perfect movie had they not dumbed it down, because actually Pocahon was supposed to have a different ending, and there was a song in the movie which was a love song between them, if I Never Knew You, which is like when they've captured him and she goes to him and like the the tent that they're keeping him in, and they have

this beautiful song together. And then when he leaves at the end because he's injured and she stays behind in America, Um, there's this beautiful reprise of it, and it's just so gorgeous, and you can see on YouTube. They have it like if you ever want to like fill in, it's on YouTube, and they used the storyboards to fill in the animated parts that they never did, so you can kind of

hear it all through and it's really beautiful. So that would have been probably number one had they kept all and they took out because they tested it with kids and they were bored right right because they showed it to families and they were like, we our kids fell asleep at this part, which is to be understood because it's a very kind of serious, more serious Disney movie. Um So I would say for that reason that one's number two for me, probably lying King is number one.

It's so it's so amazing. And then I would say maybe number three is the Little Momoid or Mulan, Okay, because well then, but then I'm thinking musical. I also love Monsters Inc. Love Monsters Inc. But the fact that Mansters Inc. Is not a musical we're including I don't know, I don't know finds up for debate. I have a lot of faves Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin. For some reason, I never connected with them, though I did love the live actions. Okay, I'm done. I have a

lot of thoughts about I'll get really quickly. But this is tough. Wow, I asked to really, it's a hard one. It's a cultural the question. Absolutely, um okay, number one, number one, Oh my god, Mulan. And not just because it's like culturally I connect to it, but because it's very but yeah, it's very feminis it's very clear, it's um it makes me cry every fucking time. At the very end when he returns father and he throws it like she hands him the sword and she and he

doesn't even look at it. He just tosses it aside and hugs her. Oh my god, oh my god. You'll get me every time when you have a father telling their child, I'm so proud every time, I'll be liked. So Mulan's number one. Number two. This is a controversial one, but a well documented one in my personal history record, Ralph. It's so fucking good, Sarah Silverman, so good. Um. Number

three a true talent. She's I mean she's technically I mean, I don't think her character is canonized in the Disney Princesses, but she's she plays the princess um and it's it's true, really good story about how she has to fight for that title back. It's really really really great. Um. And then number three Lion King or Aladdin because I connected those or a three way highlight which maybe I can't Lion King a lot a little Okay, yeah, great, great, Okay,

what are you thinking here? I have to change my number one because I forgot a movie because it's not like it's not classic, but a Goofy movie. Wow good, Yeah, that's my face for sure. Music. And I had never seen a relationship that was tumultuous between a parent and a kid like that, which I really connected to, Like seeing Goofy who was just trying to be a good single dad and Max who was like so over his dull, like weirdo dad and wanted to be cool, and they like,

you know, they fought, he ran away. There was like a whole thing where it was like them really trying to make this work. And yeah, I can't think of too many other Disney movies that do that where it's like you really explore the relationship of the parent and the child. It's usually like someone's looking for the parent or the child are like they're separated for a long time for some reason. But they were like together for most of it and they were really struggling. And I

really loved that. So yeah, that would be number one. I think LA still number two. Um, it's like it's iconic. I love it, and I mean I really loved Wally. Okay, yes, I think it's got a good message and I just thought it was Yeah, I thought it was really good and smart. Um, Postle. I love lan King. The thing is like Lion King is one where I think if we were all to watch them all literally tonight, we would be we would all in the morning lyon King.

Probably we would be like the thing is, guys, Lion King the Circle of Life as an intro to a movie. And then when I and it says the Lion King of the sun come on in that deep red like color phones. It's iconic on every level. And they don't try that hard an No, I did rewatch. I skimmed through Miwana again last night. Um, and guys, I still don't know. I still jury. I mean, it's not I need to give it another chance. I think Matt and I stopped. Matt and I saw when we were sort

of tired, tired. We were tired, let's put it that way. We were tired, and maybe I need to give it another chance to Yeah, I watched it once and I was I was into it truly until the end when I was like, now, too many things are happening. I don't know what's going on. I guess she's a mountain like it was like too many I was like, what's literal, what's actually happening? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was a little

too much. Thank you so much. And guys, I mean, do not come for any of us, but some people on this very show, on this recording have come for me, Matt because of our controversial, controversial views on No Wanna. I just don't. I wanted it to be so much better than it was. Um. I will say now listing all these classics, I have to say, Frozen is not up there. I think it's really not. I enjoyed it, but same, yeah it's not up there for me. It's isn't it crazy? What a phenomenon? Though? Like what was

it about it? Like I guess because and then I think a lot of it was the song, But like that's one of those situations where the piece of culture that just takes over in a way and you're kind of like what why Yeah, because let it goes good. But that song is the reason I think why that movie was so big. It was like my heart will go on level take over the culture moment. Yeah, something about those specific notes really hit hard with kids. Yeah,

it's like a spell. Yeah, but then like the kids took over that like zeitgeist moment, which like doesn't really happen like it was very much a child led moment. Yeah, it was a revolution. Parents were like, I don't know, they like it, will love it too, Yeah, we have to. I did watch that and then Brave in a row on a plane. It was so empowered, like so much, so much girl power and not those movies I did. And I really did like that and Frozen it was like these two sisters and no one fell in love.

I love that. I love that they weren't like and then she married this man and then she found like also truly was alone. She didn't even have an option for a significant other, And I was like, I love that she was. Her journey was entirely individual. Yes, and even like Anna and kristof At was like, oh no, they'll like hook up, yeah, but they're not getting married. Yeah, they're just like yeah. I also love that they called it out early to when she was like, I'm getting

engaged and everyone's like, you don't know this person. You need to like chat with them a little longer. What are you doing that? I like that. I do think that Frozen has a lot of great elements, but I feel like, yeah, I don't know why, what's like not congealing? Oh, I will say just to get back to Lion King before we go on a quick break. Best live. One of the best life things I've ever seen was the Lion King live show at Animals. It was amazing, Like

I wasn't even like drunk or anything. I was just so happy, Like the the acrobat the acrobats in it are incredible. Oh my god, it's yeah the top of their game. Top of Disney has amazing talent. Yeah, that's the thing is it's like. And then I was also thinking, why do they take it so seriously? How are they not breaking because when you're living Orlando, there's no bigger than that. I mean, there's no bigger than Disney World, like booking, like Indiana Jones in that show, Like that's

like a big part. You get seen by thousands of people every day every day. That's not a bad gig. Like I remember because they have still dancers in the Festival of Lankie and they could only only be men because there the stilts were longer and heavier and so they were like, oh, I guess only men could lift them. I don't know. I wasn't allowed to try it that it sucks, but the yeah, at the time only men

were cast in those parts. Um, I smell a petition, and then you know that we're very we're aching to go on those change out works. It kind of disappointed me that the movement I started just died. But you know what, do far? Sounds like? It went far. It made news, and I was never like, well, some some of the news articles did mention my name, and I kind of felt like, oh ship. It was like a kind of a joke in the beginning, and then every

game more. But then like in the latest round of news, which has been the announcement that he is speaking, they haven't really mentioned it. So I'm hoping that like it kind of just goes away, don't worry about it. He should just be like huge, yeah, just like it's repeating words. I'm sure. Well, this is actually what the controversy was was. They were like, we'll write for you what we want you to say, and then you'll record it. We'll fly to the White House and we'll record it with you.

And they were like, no, no, no, he's going to write down what he says. And they were like that's not like, so what did they end up doing? I think they are They did eventually get to a place where like he's going to have the okay on what they write. So they'll write something super innocuous and very much like America for years has been great. And then it'll be like that and he'll like be like okay, because I mean, you can't let him write it. You

can't could possibly right himself. It's shocking America first countries. Don't laugh at us anymore, American carnage whatever. Um. Okay, before we go on a quick break, let's read out a user submitted rule of culture. Yes, now, this is a new segment. This is a new segment. Um. So every week we're gonna take in new suggestions for rules of culture. Just either tweet him at us comment on our Facebook page. Um. This one today comes from Kelly Briscoe.

Kelly Briscoe, who has decreed that rule number thirty seven and this really touched me. Is the Kelly Clarkson version, is the definitive version. I'm looking at you Hamilton's I'm looking at you. It's quiet uptown thoughts on Kelly. I love her, Yes, she's so great, great voice, and yeah, I usually like her cover is better than almost always

and that is a thing with her. Actually, I recently today I listen to Since You've Been Gone, and I was like, her original music hasn't been like this good in a long time, where now she's like doing the covers, but also now she's going to be on a new label. She's on a new label and she's releasing a soul record, as she called, that's what she's what we need. And that's the thing is, it's like Kelly Clarkson, she this is so classic that the whole first half of this

episode has been Disney and Arson. You gotta understand, um, But Kelly Clarkson, she will always come back in the news because she's a fierce singer, like she she's gonna no my country tis of the Obama inauguration. She's gonna make you cry on American Idol singing in that um piece by piece song, like she's always going to be back in the news for having a great voice. I do, and this is not I'm not going to say Deuvil's advocate because I hate that, but um, what other covers

of hers are definitive? Besides, all I can think of is It's quite a town her Christmas album, and then what else, well, she does in her chores other people's songs. I have my head, but it's usually like here's a Katy Perry song, or and she destroys it. She sang Wide Awake one time by Katy Press. She's like, I like this song and she it was so much better than Katy Perry. She even did Lose Yourself by Eminem.

She'll do any song, and she she can sing any style, like she'll remember like I went to the concert um where she she it wasn't a cover percent, it was like a throwback. And she performed this old big band song she did on Big Band Week on American I was called stuff like that there, which actually was performed

in a movie by Bette Mittler or something. It's like a very like for the Troops for the Boys song, but it's so good and she sings it and you feel like you're in nineteen Okay, So the Kelly Clarkson version is the definitive version. Thank you so much, Kelly Brascoe. That's rule number thirty seven. The Kelly Clarkson version is the definitive version. Let's go on a quick break. Well, wait,

can I say one more rule that I think we've decided? Yes, Okay, is rule number one hundred and nine when you wake up in the morning. It's the lion king after a marathon. I'm Melissa Edwards tongue clinging. Guys, you heard it here first. Okay, we'll be right back with the year and we're back discussing eating on the mic. Well, I mean, so Matt very generously poured his what are the pretzel Eminem's plug it plug item sponsor? Honestly, why not? Come on? Is

that nest? Well? No, no, I think Eminem is their own company. Oh I think I'm really Oh wait, no, Eminem is. Yeah, they've got their own store. They got their own company, they got their own store. Did you know this? Maybe I've said this before, Maybe maybe you don't know this. This year, the Eminem store in Times Square is the single most visited tourist destination in America. Really, yes, I don't believe that it is because you have to do the math. Times Square is the most visited tourist

destination in the country. The spot in Times Square that gets the most visitors is the Eminem store, which would mean, what's true? Would you count like the t kt S booth like what like? By location? I don't know. I think in terms of people that walk through the door, Yeah, yeah, there's the person clicking or whatever. Are they know somehow I don't know if there's someone clicking, but that's what they say. That's what I'm told to say on the ride.

There you go. I would believe that there is more people going through the eminem store than through t KTS because not everyone has money to buy tickets for Broadway. You have too many people in your crew, and you're like, the eminem store is free, we just walk for grab some eminems, and you're so right. I just t KTS

was about example. That was just me like sort of no, But in fact I ask people that as a trivia question on the ride, and a lot of people guess the t k TS steps and I'm always like no, because yeah it's not It's just like you just don't do anything there, but you can go and look at at the eminem store. And I tried to think all the time if I was a tourist, what I would

be most excited about about New York. And I do think like if you didn't know anything more than Time Square, you would just go go there, you know what I mean? And you'd be like, yeah, I guess I went to the eminem store. I mean the one in Vegas is pretty good too, try it um. Eminem's is distributed by Mars Chocolate. Did you come to New York a lot growing up? Was it a foreign place? It was a foreign place. My oh my gosh. The Mountain Disney is

connection to the first time. Didn't know that about you. The first time I was in New York was to audition to be a big band jazz singer for Tokyo Disney Wow. And this was during college. Is after the college program was over, and I was like, I already have a Disney in And I was like on some email listser where they sent out castings for different shows. I was like, this will be my post grad move. I'll go to go to Tokyo for a year and

then figure it out after that. And uh. I took a Chinatown bus and so I was at Shawsville, drove to d C. Took a Chinatown puss up to New York and then my mom had a friend who lived in Jersey and into like a bus to Jersey, stay with her for the night, then went back into the city in the morning. That career studios, we know, we love it and uh oh, I was so green too. I like had a black and white glossy of myself and then like eight by eleven sheet of paper for

my resume paper clip together. And then there was a singing portion and a dancing portion, and I was like, I'll dress for the dancing portion, but cute. So I had like on like a pink T shirt and some yoga pants. Cute. But then everyone else was dressed to the nines. I didn't realize you dress up for the singing portion. If they asked you back for dancing, then you change. So everyone's like looking cute, and I'm like, you're dressed. And then I went in there and I

was I sang, um, well, what did I say? It wasn't Disney. I'm sure no, it was ironically, wasn't say that better choice? Yeah, but I think I sang open arms so that that was like my audition song. And I was going to say, did you have like a

song that was my song? Yeah? And um, of course the piano players going slower than I wanted him to that song is and yeah it was fine, and they were just like they were like thank you and I was like, Okay, that's all right, but that's not how it's supposed to go out because put all my eggs in this basket. I'm sure. Yeah, And then I left and had to like change my clothes. I went to forevery one in the area to change my clothes, crying on the phone with my dad, just like I didn't

get it. And then oh god, it was such a rough journey. Then taking I took a bus back to d C. I didn't look where I parked my car, like if the garage was twenty four hours, and I just assumed it was twenty four hours. It wasn't. So I was there at one in the morning. I couldn't get my car out. I had to call my stepmom, my ex step mom who lived in Odin to Maryland and have her tell me how to get to the train at Youton station to take it to her place. The ex step mom, Yeah, I mean it was still

in my life, but like she didn't have to at one. Yeah, I didn't tell her I was even going on this journey, so she's like, why are you in d C? And then I had to go back the next morning to get my car. It was like a hundred and forty bucks because they charged you hourly and then drove back to Charles went to class. So you did you do improv? I did? Yeah, I started a group. Yeah, you started the group. I started the group with an Attasha v and Blatt. What that's some trivia and Santaget was when

I first fruits. Oh incredible, like great breeding ground. I think we pump them out. That's how you and Sam know each other. You get your friends from way back from going to school. Oh and you've been tight with Natasha for years. Yeah. Natasha Vain Black is one of the most talented people I think I've ever seen perform on stage. I recently saw her do a character set and I was just like, this is just every just she had And I had seen her do a variation

in inneration of the step before. I could tell that. She just plotted every laugh, tweaked it, tightened it. It was perfect. I love it. So did you guys do sketch together too? Was it in improvka? And that's I mean because so I was a year older than her and uh, but you know we're almost the same major

and you guys are seventeen and sixteen now. Exactly. And I knew that she had done improv since she was a teenager because she was doing comedy sports in Richmond before she had got TV, so she was like already on it um. But like I auditioned for the for the one improv team that was at our school, the Weatherman. W h takay weatherman and come on weather men, weather men? Really? Thank God for a okay audition for weather men? Is it?

I feel so I feel bad when I do this because I'm not trying to shoot on the weather I'm sure they're fine. But yeah, so I audition didn't make the group Nata tradition three times, didn't make it, and I was like, this isn't unjust, this makes no sense because she's like the funniest. She's the funniest, yes, and so then I was like, you should start a group. She's like, we should start a group. And then we

started a group. That's beautiful, unbelievable. You know who did the same thing and m y U Suti really Shuti also didn't make the improv group at n y U despite being yeah and oh, she stood out to me and she had been taking she had been doing improv um in Delaware in Delaware like years prior, so she had a lot of experience, was real of that and like so much incredible natural talent, and she didn't make it. And so they started a group and then what you

call Captain Soldier. Now you've got people from that group on Broadway. You got people Williams Town, Williams Town, you know, doing the thing. They became like the theatrical improv. You just have to have more variety, Yeah, you just have one. We have for a long time had one sketch up on you and one improv group, and it was like there be more and it felt it felt gross for me on the during audition season to be like, we're

so sorry. But then we would tell people like we are we should we are not the only game in town. You can take classes that U seb. We can start your own group. And then people did that and then it just was all the better. I mean, the whole community was all the better for it. So, you know, did that like to find your college experience a little bit like truly? And I think I am very appreciative about how you v a kind of fosterday student run environment.

They're like if you see a void you can fill it. That's how I felt anyway, and I did that. It was like, oh, I want another improv group, started improv group, I revived like All Black Theater Company. I Like, there's like so many things that I was just able to like do because I was like, oh, now that I did it once, I know how to do that now and kind of all you need when you quote unquote

start out. It's just like that like seed crystal thing of just being like, oh, I can actually do this to not be you know, a rack at the end, and it doesn't hurt to have people next to you that actually hold you accountable for that. Like I'm sure like having Natasha there helped as well because it's like, no, we want this. I'm not the only person that wants this. Yeah. I don't think I would have done it by myself. I wouldn't have, but because she was there, I felt secure.

It's great. So, like were the audiences with did the college campus turn out for the shows they did? Yeah? At first it was a little weird because it was like who are these people? Yeah, what's this new thing? And then we and we tried to do shows with the weather man like like thank yeah, like, oh, it's fine that we're all here together. But there was a little bit of like a few kids tensions, but then

we didn't need to. Then we started getting our own audiences on our own the spinoff, and then SAM started like a sketch group out of that, like other things started spawning from from the group, and now I think there's a ton of comedy at V. Did you guys travels as a group know? Um? We did. We went to skid War. Um what we went to some festival? I want to So we went to the North Carolina Comedy Arts Festival. Yes, what's that theater? They're called in

South Carolina in Charlie, Charlot. These in Charlottesville and Charlotte in the same day, because like the South is confusing. You didn't turn to Sam. I didn't turn to sand anyway. Um, I feel like there was somewhere else we went to. But yeah, we did all the festival classes and then we would like take notes and then come back together and share what we learned with each other. It was

actually really cool. I mean like we truly were just teaching ourselves what to do, and we would watch like ASCAT videos and UCB stuff and just really take turns being like, well, I know this, I want to do this. That's so then you moved to New York And what I want to ask you is, I want to ask about the origins of Doppelganger, because when I was a student a n y U and first taken classes, Doppelganger was do you guys were it? So can you talk

a little bit about Doppelganger? When I moved to New York Is in two thousand nine, and I was taking classes very quickly because I fell in hard and then I met Nicole and Keisha through the diversity program you CB, and that we would have like meetups and like pizza parties and jams and stuff. This is Nicole Buyer and

and who are also to black female improvisers. And we all auditioned for Harold Knight and you have to like take up to four oh one, get past and then audition um the spring of I guess two thousand ten. None of us made it. And and I had already been performing with Nicole separately from Kesha, but but with both kind of by accident actually because I had another uh one person from my improv group in college moved to New York before I did, and he was like already,

he's like advanced already. So he's like, here's what you do. You find people you like early on in your classes and keep them with you and then create a group. Yeah, and uh. In my two and one and three one classes, there was one girl who I really really liked, but I didn't like anybody else, so I just held on to her. And I was like, well, what if we start just the two of us, and then if we

want more people, add more people. And we would have these like insane long practices where we had no coach, just in my living room with a camera facing us and we recorded and then watch it back. We were insane, but it's also like once you get past that, it's like, okay, well nothing will phase you. If you can watch yourself do uncoached improv in your living room and like get through that, then you can do anything. We were just obsessed, and then we like watched um um T J. Miller

and Dave what's this last name? J? Daj and yes um we watched their movie that they have, and then we watched them live whenever they came to the Barrow Street Theater. There are such good shows. Yeah, we were obsessed. You were obsessed with improv and with two person improv in particular. And then we did a show that Nicole's improv group was hosting. I can't remember what any was and my partner flate and I can't remember what the

reason was, but she just couldn't make it. And so I told Nicole and she's like, oh, well, I have been in a jam with you before. Let's I can just perform with you. And so we did it and it was great and it was kind of like a date where do you want to do this again? Sometimes Costello? Yeah, the partners didn't show up and they jumped on stage together. Yeah.

And then the exact same thing happened with Keisha's group because she was hosting a show and then uh, my partner was supposed to come and she was like, sorry, I can't. And then I was like, Keisha, this thing and she was like, oh, I'll just do it with you. We did it. It was great, so that the two of us I was having too. I had two separate groups going. And then that partner moved to l A

and like we stopped performing together. Um, but you know, I actually am thankful because it made me meet these two incredible performers and uh. And then after we all found out that we didn't make uh make Harold Night, both of them at the same time and separate emails were like, all right, we need to work harder. We're gonna have our own show. We're gonna kick ass. And I was like, this is so wonderful. I cannot split my time two ways. What if we try to make

a three cent lests bring it all together? And so we had to show the Creek booked I think maybe, and Keisha had it booked already and I was like, come on, nical, like it was jump in. We never practiced or rehearse. We just like did a show together, like let's just see how it goes. And it was magical and we're like, this is it and then that was in. Then we just like we rehearsed all the time. Actually,

Ward was our coach for a long time. Amazing. Yeah, and yeah, we just like started going to cage match tournaments and like and performing and beating a lot of groups, like like I was in a four oh one class and Brandon Gardner was my teacher and was in one

of the groups that we beat. Yeah, and then wasn't like for me, like the moment was just like any poler saw them and thought that they should be on Harold or whatever, Like there was a moment where it all sort of came to a like a head and like it was just like the momentum and built up so much that I was just like, yeah, like get

these people. Yeah, that's how I mean. SNL found out about us because Anthony King, who was the eight at the time, called them up and was like, Hey, here are these funny ladies who are consistently on our stage. Can see them. And one of the producers came to one of our shows where we did really well and was like, you guys should send tapes and us And so we did that and we were so green, had no idea what we're doing actually, um, but we did them.

And then I think we did that for a couple of years, and then Nicole went into test Um like two thousand thirteen or something, and then the whole you know, lack of diversity blogs thing, it took over at the end of that year and then I UH tested the end of December and they got cast January. So that

was a very quick process. Yeah, so that that that must have been kind of insane from like getting like, oh they saw you what and they liked to submit a packet all of a sudden, it's the audition that it was like a few years and and me like the whole the last chunk of me getting on the show was very quick, but like there were a couple of years where we're just submitting stuff over the summer

like everyone else does. Yeah, being like yeah, probably not, buthere I mean, And the last time I was submitting was I was like, this is going to be the last time. Like I was like, if it's not this year, it's not going to happen. And I remember putting together a practice tape to send my manager and be like, let's just prepare for our next summer when they usually do it. And I was like, let you know, give me notes and let me let me know what what

do you think? And this is made like I don't know, November or something, and they were like, can you can we send this to them because they need it now they're looking for a black or right now. And I was like, oh sure, I don't think it's ready, but okay. It was a practice I mean okay, I guess. And then we did a showcase like maybe that week or the next week that I felt very good about at the pit and to come support. Yeah, we need bodies

to fill the seas. And then uh, maybe that week or the next week we did um the Test and I remember Leslie Jones was before me and I couldn't hear how much they were laughing, and I was like, that's cool, that's cool. I'm good, I'm good and uh and then but I'm like I did that. I kind of blacked out in that performance. But I left feeling like that's the best I've ever done anything. And I was like, if they want it, that's great. If not,

that's on them. And that's like such a nice feeling to be like I can't even think of a thing to fix. Yeah. I was like, that's that is the best I could have done. And it paid off. Yes, Oh my god, So does does he call you on the phone. I did get a call on the phone. Yeah. Yeah. It was like they let me know that. They said that they would let me know before Christmas break they didn't. So then you think, okay, well it's not a thing. Well I knew it. They didn't pick anyone because I

hadn't heard anything, so I was like just waiting. Also, I was trying to move to l A at this time. I remember that you went and much and then you had to come right back. Yeah. Almost. Well, I had an apartment in l A. And I was getting rid of stuff. I was looking for cars and that. But I didn't like my New York apartment because I was like, I don't know, I don't know, so I like, but I already put down like a deposit and stuff on

this other place. Um, and it was like annoying people who were living there because they're like, do we need to find a new roommate? And I was like, I legit, don't know. Don't ask me again. You're stressed me, Yeah, I was like, I know you're stressed, but I am very stressed right now. I'm probably more stressed than you. And now I remember the first time I met you was in story pirates training. Oh yeah, we did so.

She and I originated the story called nineteen, which is about a boy whose birthday is in nineteen days and that's it. Yeah, and there's a dance, yeah, very easy dance. Very it's just a countdown from nineteen to his name is boy. I think his name was, what's his name? I don't remember. I was like, I'm blank, I'm a boy. Yeah. Yeah, that was like a very story parts, things like hi, I'm a boy and it's going to be my birthday in nineteen days. Oh my god. And then it heighten

until like the Secret Service coming out. I don't know, crazy. I was looking forward to story pipes so I could do it in l A and like have a thing and like meet people. It makes a little bit of money. Yeah, he got swept up. I got swept up. Other things just happened, unfortunately. I just I just remember like the euphoria when you got cast. It was just it was just so so amazing, and I mean like I mean, after all this, you should be so proud and thank

you so much. So I am proud, Yeah you should be. Yeah. It was so we're so freaking good. It was so cool to see. I mean I have to say, like there's the when when it was announced that that you were the one. It was like everyone you spoke to was like, yes, so excited and happy for you because we all looked up to you for so long. I mean like like like Doppelganger was it? It was honestly option that the rights to a Doppelganger movie. I would watch that. I'd rather that than don't think Twice will

come on. I like, don't think Twice did it, but I would Maybe maybe you don't have to say anything to shar you don't have to incriminate yourself. I didn't like it. I thought it had paint to the community a really ugly. I liked it just fine. I would rather watch a Doppleganger movie, same and original cast. Maybe come on, why Maybe it's a pretty great narrative. Yeah, I don't know. I'll talk to the girls about it. Talk to the girls. The girls are around. In fact,

I was Forever Ducks sister, Forever Ducks sister. I was gonna I was gonna drop a hint about something Cusha might be involved in. Sue. Okay, well that's not But that's all I can say about that. Hot producer Alex is giving us a look. He's saying, oh, man, you know who's not here hot producer the pace. But we've got we've got hot engineer Ronnie here to engineer Ronnie. And let me say I apologize this to Sear when she came in, because usually he's pumping the good jams.

Don't apologize, No, I apologize. Ronnie doesn't have to play the music every time he does, And I would say, Carly Rage Japson's usually playing do you like the new Lord the Lord Enjoy? Yes, it's very good. Ronnie would do both of you Ronnie and to se do you think about the new says that? Have you listened to so good? Yeah? I was, oh my god, hot engineer Ronnie nails it every time he was going to have that on. It's okay, it's okay, but we know what

he would have played Gagging for Lord. Also him him obsessed so good and really wasn't obsessed with their first time and I thought it was like good. I was like, yeah, this is a good band. Huh something along for Good when they released that video when they were just walking on the street. Have you seen the video for the same now you guys culture of the Week? The music video for Want You Back Behind? It's just, honestly, it's three girls walking down the street, which is all I ever.

It's pretty great and and with some literally they take out it's it's what it's what they don't do that's special. Just it'll make sense when you watch. I'm pointing to him, thank you a little with the knowledge of a true culture and little of your love is there other single and also rule number fifty of culture. It's what they don't do that makes that's it. It's what they don't do that make it. It's what they don't do that makes it. Oh my god, I think it's time. I

think it's time for I don't think so okay. So this is, as you know, the ps of our show, right though, bo right though, And we have a true cultures and who just slayed it the first time. Excited to see what she brings. But now go ahead. I'm I kind of touched on this earlier, so I feel like the novelty of the discussion will be worn off a little bit. I'm gonna switch gears. I love a progression, okay, do you okay? But how about you go first? I would love to go first, Okay, So I give me

at the time. I don't think so, honey, as you may or may not know, is our one minute to rail against culture. I'm very excited about the future of I don't think so, honey. I don't know what I'm talking about, but soon get ready to get online, like you're buying tickets to a Beyonce concert, but maybe buying tickets is something else. How Producer Alex is like shut uh no, you know he's fine. You moron? Um okay? Is Matt Rodgers. I don't think so, honey. Time starts now.

I don't think so, honey, Chris Harrison, because let me tell you something. I'm watching The Bachelorette and you don't host. You barely come out. You're never on the show. If you're ever on that show, it's to say, Rachel, how are you? Well? I understand welcome next to them and then everyone I'm always talking about like you, like you're going to be the one to come in and fix things like well, tell Chris how you feel, bitch. You are a receptacle for nothing, and I can see in

your eyes there's nothing there. And also, Chris, I don't think so, honey, because I know who you really are, because I've met you. Chris Harrison. You shook my hand like Donald Trump. You tried to assert dominance over me. But with the pull Chris Harrison, I don't think so, honey. You are you are not hosting that show. You're getting a check. Everyone that tells me they love they love Chris Harrison, they have a crush on his Harrison. They love him. I'm like, why, why, what is it about him?

You are like the basic girls on that show? Just kidding. I love Rachel Lindsay. Oh my god, I'm obsessed. She's amazing. Go hashtag team Brian. Okay, then that's the woman at hashtag Team Brian. All I'm saying is, look, you know you want to see hosting watch Reopaul's drag race. You want to see hosting watch Survivor. You want to see hosting watch so youth you can dance. Those are your three? Those are three Chat Deely slaying on that show. Honestly, give me some Nick Cannon. I love it when Nick

Cannon house. I'm not a Nick Cannon fan. Okay, your team, Okay, all right, that's fair, um, alright, but that's my I don't think so, honey, And do wash the Bachelorette with you In that you you played an amazing mitche Lindsay, thank you very much that she's amazing. She's an icon. It seems just way better than everybody on the show. She's so dope. She is really really deserving every time. I am buying into it so much because I love her. There is a film deal with a puppet. Okay, the

puppets gone. First of all, the guy is still in. No, No, the guy is still in Adam. He brought like a little like crazy like one of those scary dolls. Yea. And the guy is still in. He's in the top six, but they were like, you gotta get rid of The puppet still makes a cameo appearance every now, and they love. The producers love the puppet. They gave him him as his own lower third. They gave him his own confessionals. It's nuts right now, there's weird remaining in the show.

Remaining in the show is one guy who has the puppet, and one guy who came in and like a full like mask. Who is this Matt? He came in and he had like a full mask on and that was his entrance. Is u is the guy is the guy who said, um, once, once I go black, I can't go back. Yes, he's still there, but he's but he's actually literally so good and I think he's going to be the next bachelor. His name is Dean. You could

tell they made him say that. He's I know, and you get a percent how they made him say that, and like he's gorgeous and he's gorgeous, really nice, so cute and so sweet and so nice and he is like I was talking to my sister about this today because I'm fully in Bachelor Nation now. I texted her and I was like, he is the only one that's

like a star. Like she was like, I can see a couple of the other guys winning because they have better chemistry and they're like whatever, but this guy is, like he's a brand, Like Dean is like a brand. He's so adorable and that's what you have to have for the Bachelor. But then she told me sometimes they pick the worst people ever to be the Bachelor, like

one Pablo, Sure, this one guy, one Pablo. Anyway, anyway, Um, I think I'm ready and I'm gonna I don't think that you'll see it's it's a weird but it's a weird one, all right. So it's a little bit of a weird one. And we've prefaced it. This is I don't think so honey, boone Yang and time starts now I don't think so, honey. My feelings, my ambivalent feelings on the Beguild I saw last week. I went into it thinking I was going to be gagged for, and you know what, for the most part, I was, but

that ending. I'm not going to spoil anything, but it is a weird, bizarre ending that I don't think was very earned. The pacing gets a little thrown off. There is literally, you know what, I'm not gonna say this. I'm just gonna say there's a check off. There's a Chekov's gun figuratively or literally that or may not be actually used in a checkag in sentence, if that makes sense. I thought I was gonna love this movie, and now the fact that I don't love a Sofia Coppola movie

is really fucking with me. I don't think so many of my feelings. This is throttling me into an identity crisis that I did not ask for. I did not think the Guild would put me into this tizzy. I wish I had seen Baby Driver instead first and like maybe been either loved it so much or hated it as a contrarian opinion, and then when to go see them to sort of have a better cinematic texture to my to my understanding, I don't think so many of my feelings on the boguil. Wow. All right, so I'm

seeing it tonight. Okay, tell me what you think. And Peter and Kelly and I are going the Bam. We're going to um Angelica. Oh great, And I'm very excited for them. Watched the trailer more than I should. Here's what I'll say. Performances are great. Nicole Kirsten Um, what's e ells um? I'm gonna say it now, the best can performance of the year. She's so fucking funny in this movie. She's supposed to be not well kind of because she like bats her eyes in such a funny

way at Colin Farrell. That's all I'll say. It's hilarious. Every time they came to l Fanning, she looks fucking hysterical. Everyone in the theater was cracking up. Am I gonna gasp and scream? You're gonna gasp and scream and probably laugh. Paul kim in Um and this was in the trailer, her line of get me the whatever gets the chloroform, gave me the chloroform, and she has one line. Can

I say it, No, don't spoil. She has a line right after that that I don't think they included in the trailer um that everyone in the theater and Atma I want to experience of in a Southern accent serving. She nails the Southern accent, by the way, anyway, talked about this. A lot of people have problems with her accent in big Little Eyes because it's harder to do like straight up American accent than it is for someone

who's foreign to do like a real Southern name. But to go from Australian to Southern is an easy job. That's what they say. That's what they say. Anyway, little known, little known, Uh the language fact, Yes, actually know what. I liked the guilds. But just go see it, go see it. I'm going I love it. Yeah, anyway, that's mine. So shear. Are you ready? Okay, it's time? I don't think so, honey. Time starts now. I don't think so, honey. Horse cops, what are you doing? Why are you riding

a horse? Do you think you're chasing? We don't have cowboys anymore. We're not playing cowboys and Indians anymore. We're not. We are all adults with cars and bicycles and segues and hover boards. You need to keep up with the times. Are you doing on that horse? I was at the beach the other day saw a horse cop on the sand. That's not a place where horses. Someone grass or something. Also, horse pooped on the street and no one cleaned it up. If you're going to have a horse, you have to

have a bucket with you. You have to be prepared to sweep the poop because that's disgusting. And we don't have cars at poop everywhere. They don't. We don't have to clean up our mess. You do, though, and I don't appreciate it. Who are you chasing with that? You need to put the horses stable and and and make it enjoy nature? Is that putting on the street and not actually using it for its full potential? Wow? That is That is one of those ones where you're like, yeah,

those people, why, why that is an animal? I walked by them and I looked into the horse's eye and I said, I'm so sorry. Yes, yes, and guess what you do to clean up after them? Because that ship doesn't smell good. It's ship. It's ship. If it was

a dog, you'd be cleaning it up. Yes, and they take huge ship smelly, fragrant traffic accident truly was like on like near where the food was near Jacabries that yeah, and there was like a huge PLoP of poop in front of like the shops, and there's like, whose responsibility is it to claim this? No one, no one, It's

just gonna descend there. That's not I just went we had four tildon yesterday and there was a horse on the on the on the beach walking and I was like, first of all, this is so for show, not Second of all, what if that? Yes, you can't not think about it? And who are you chasing someone's running on foot? You don't need a horse if it's just an elevation thing. They want to be like like high to see things. Maybe I don't know, but that's still not It doesn't

make sense. It's just it's crazy that in two thousand seventeen they're like, no, we still need to horse own horses. My god, do you have a bit about this in your stand up? No, I'm bad, Please work. This is a huge issue. This would be the second time that I don't think so, honey became a full bit and should be my open Mike, I'll do. I don't think, honey, there you go, but I agree until we until our society devolves to a place where there are bandits on horses,

and I believe we will get there. I don't want to see them now. Wow, and the horses. If you're someone who thinks that dogs shouldn't belong in the city because they're trapped or whatever, the same fucking thing goes for horses. Extrapolate and I'm sure that's so much money to put them in a stable somewhere. I'm sure upstate or something like. They're not just chilling in a garage, must be in a stable somewhere. And then you have to train cops to ride horses. That's more of our

money going to something that does not get used. Horses. Someone that has intel I missed to contact us and let us know what's up with these horses because I have not. You've exposed a lot of questions and maybe this this podcast is where we bring it down. I smell another petition, changed organ You will see us on changes.
