The Top 200 Moments in Culture History

that's okay. I just I took my headphones off. Um, are you going to take yours off too? I'm also taking mind off because we can, I can put am I making you feel self conscious? No? No No, no, no no, It was just so basically for all the readers at home, we're kind of re establishing what it means to record a podcast in the same room again, you know what I mean? And so that means many things. It means certain audio has to get figured out, and we are

just mere mortals here. We don't really know what we're doing. Is let me ask you something? Did it? It started to feel like the new normal that we were recording

on Zoom, wasn't it? It It started to feel like the new normal and also, to be honest with you, I felt like the guests that we were getting were extreme because through very much so like I will, then I thought to myself, like, okay, so the quarantine right, the fact that it happened got us into survivor, and then that's what got us part and we would not have been able to have part if it weren't for COVID. I'm not saying I'm happy COVID happened at all. You're not.

You're not like Jennifer Aniston, that Hollywood reporter around table who was like, you know, COVID is actually a blessing and then and then it was like it was community, yeah, and it was basically I'm not Jennifer Anniston right now. I am, however, saying that I am happy that we were able to have the kind of guests that we've had, which because we felt unmoored by the location of it all right, and it was like we only have to be in the same time, in the same not even

the same place. We just have to be together at the same time. We just have to exist in the same world with internet really to get anyone we want, and we've asked some asks, we've had some masks. We've put some masks out, that's true. Um. Anyway, readers, I'm in l A. Now. This is a very long standing plan since March. Study and I we're gonna fly out here anyway. I'm in Los Angeles now for a little bit. This is a long standing plan. We're taking every precaution

we can. Isn't that right. Let's just say that Bone and I are seated across the room from each other, and it's very um, sort of the fifties shades of gray boardroom scene where we are very much negotiating with each other from across the room and it is dimly lit and the stakes are high. It's very power couple. Web series story Matt Rogers and Study Green to Peter Kelly the Britain episode, which was modeled after that fifties shades scene. Now this is what it is. Thank you

for that shout out to my work. It's wonderful. Um. You and I are Chloe and Holle and we're we're in the tennis courts shooting our music videos. Wow, we are very Chloe and Hell Chloe. Can I say, like out loud right now that we are the Chloe and Hollye of podcasting, and this is and that we were influenced by Beyonce and ye are a duo. We were influenced by Beyonce. We were raptured by a larger corporate structure also known as I Heart, also known as um Well,

Will Ferrells are Beyonce. Will Ferrells really our Beyonce. And also we should say that, um, while is it Chloe or Halley that is in Little Mermaid, It's it's Hallian Calle is it in Little Mermaid? And we aspire to be in Little Mermaid as Flotsam and jetson. So there is like a familial thing here. We are all sisters.

And I am so happy that my sister is here in Los Angeles with me because I can better take care of her and she me, and also we can do things like this very fun episode because I don't know if you know, and I know that you know. But that's the way I can transition into saying it's actually our two hundredth episode of Lost Cultures, and there's I mean, let's do the math. Two hundred times one

point five. That's three hundred hours on average of us talking, hundreds of hours of us out there shooting the absolute shit, saying really crazy things. And that's the thing is, it's like people who are like I'm starting the podcast from the beginning, I'm like, oh, bitch, to be a journey. You're gonna hear us talking about how we can't wait

for Hillary Clinton to win the damn president thing. Let's just say we, like the rest of the world, from March two thousand sixteen to November sixteen, were quite confident and now it'll it is like kind of crazy to think, like, um, how far not only like the podcast has come, but also the world has come and we've come individually, but also that we started this in a different world climate. Yeah,

like in almost every way. I mean yeah, And look now you and I are both completely radicalized, and um, we're radical girl, We're radical girls. We embrace the radicality. Let me just say, Matt Rodgers just mixed to me the strongest vodka Red Bull I've ever had, and it's such a tall, tall tumbler. Well there's two shots in it too, full shot girl. I have not had a

full on cocktail in like a month. Well, this is part of the new normal, which is we have to find a way to drink too much, even though we're not going out, and this is just gonna be like, I'm excited that Boonen is here. It's our two hundred episode. I mixed us a little celebratory cocktail, and I'm very excited about it because this is not just the two episode. We've actually prepared, which we do not often do for last reasons. We have prepared a list and it's it's

actually real culture number thirteen. Culture is lists absolutely and Bowen what is this list? So it's our two hundredth episode of Lost Cultures, just not counting those little, you know, ad swamps where we just do a little fifteen minute episode where we show you a preview of a Jaws theme podcast or whatever, the standalone episode. So in honor of this, we have prepared a list of the top

two hundred moments in culture history. These are the top two hundred moments that have happened in culture history, as decided by Matt Rogers and Bowen Lost Culture Estes. We are a little bit drunk, but we feel very confident about what we've put on the list, that this is a definitive list that is empirically ordered. I would say, um, every spot on this list. Uh is a huge deal. It's culture. It's it's something that shaped the culture in

a positive way from the beginning of recorded history. Yes, from our viewpoint, which is the empirical objective viewpoint, because I actually remember the first episode of Last Cultures and we're calling all the way back, we did say it. If we say it on this podcast, it is cannon. Did we say this, Yes, we we said we are the Lost cultures. Does I means we are the arbiters of culture and taste? Yes, I mean we We really evolved over the course of that first episode where we

started out. I do believe we started out by saying we're the arbiter where the consultants of culture, culture consultants, which is not a phrase we have said since, not since, but I really want to harken back to that sort of um that ethos and then and then by the end of the episode, I guess we said that anything that we say is canon. Yeah. Well, even if it wasn't said, I'm saying we said. And what's important is that we as culture consultants have consulted with each other.

And I don't trust anyone as much as I don't trust anyone as much as Matt ros and you know that I've been I have not been blowing smoke up You're asked these last couple of days since I've seen you in person, I was like, Matt Rodgers, He's he's he's he's the one, He's the culture Maven Well, and we know that Bowen Yang has, you know, not only created culture in his own right, but he is one

of the refined minds of our generations. And this is us sitting in my apartment absolutely blowing smoke off each other's but holes tight or otherwise, hight or otherwise. And I have to say we have raised our drinks. And this is also going out to not only just our incredible team at my heart, but also shout out to Forever Dogs. Forever Dog. Shout out to Yes Go gave us our start and allowed us to do exactly what

we wanted to do. Shout out to every single guest we have had on the podcast, thank you, and what else. Anyone that's come to our live shows I don't think so honey live, anyone that's bought a ticket, anyone who's performed for that matter, performed for that show. And so we have to say to all the readers, thank you, bitch for listening to last culture reasons, whether you're a recent person who started listening or you've been here from

the very beginning. I remember we used to look at our listener account and be like, oh my god, sixty two people listen. Remember that. I remember the day that we broke three digits, three figures, and that was a big day. I think it was on the Aaron Jackson and Josh Haarp episode, the first And they'll be back, and they'll be back back. But suffices to say, we have accrued much knowledge over these years during the podcast, and we came in with our inherited knowledge is as

homosexual gay man, and we have put together this list. Now. Matt alluded to earlier that we consulted with each other on this list, and that is true. We there were a couple of points of contention on this list. I wanted to take some stuff off. I wanted to add some stuff in. Matt said, no, we're keeping that note. We're we're not putting that in. Although I will say ultimately this was a pretty We only disagreed about two or items and like pretty much the rest of it is.

Of course, but I'm saying this is a collaborative effort. This is an effort that we had to, yes, kind of watch ourselves on on an individual level and be like, actually, know if this is not important to me, this is important to him, or it's important to me and not to him, And I'm gonna fight for its importance. This is a beautiful list. I think it's some of our best work. I think it's some of our best work. And I think that everything here has a place here

and belongs here. And I am excited to start the list mailing of the top two moments in pop culture history. Yes, okay, let's begin with the very first thing we have to say. There is an honorable mention on the list. Honorable mentions. She did not make the cut. She almost made the cut Ladies and Gentlemen number two hundred and one, but doesn't really get a number because she did not make the list. It is Nicole Singer, give it up. I mean, I was listening to react today. What a comeback single,

great comeback single. And you know, I've really respected her since buttons absolute Louis and you've you've had to respect her at some point, especially when she was Andrew lod Webber's firstwhile news and then they felt that they had a falling out. Well they you know, they had a falling out because she wanted to do The X Factor in the UK because she is famously an international talent show judge and we respect that, and you respect her

because she's an international talent show judge. And she also can turn on musical theater. Yeah, oh yeah. And the voice you can't, you can't, you just can't beat it. I mean, her performance of Don't Cry for Me Argentina was absolutely amazing. And Andrew load Webber famously said, I mean the way she acted that amazing and she's incredible. But she did not she did not make the list. But let's not get going. Let's get started unless we have to blow past a lot of these items. But

let's start with number two hundred. Let's say together for all of these number two hundred, when when Brittany said good Morning America. When Brittany came out and said good morning America in that voice, I mean I think that we all knew she was bad. She knew she was back promoting her new lead single against Me, good Morning America. And I promise you it'll be a morning to remember, see you soon that you know, and then the transition

into would you hold it against me? I mean there there has a lot that can be said about Britney Spears. She is a revolutionary pop star. But when she came out and said good Morning America, I feel that America really woke up. She had just I mean it sounds like from her for the timber of her voice, it sounds like she had just swan dived into a pool, got a little flemmy in the nose and in the sinus. And then there was Brittany, you have to shoot your

good Morning America promo right now. I mean it sounded like like a cartoonishly big hammer hit her right in the nose and broke it. I mean like, honestly, it was. We will never get answers really as to why it was the way it was, but I can say what answer to your question? Was this iconic? Yes? It was number two hundred on our list. Yes, let's move on

to number is TL video. This was an amazing video, an amazing song that was later covered by Glee stars Lea Michelle, Lea Michelle and I believe Diana Agron Diana when they did I'm Pretty mashed up with I Feel Pretty from West Side Story iconic mash up. But of course we have to go back to the source, and that was the Unpretty video which started t Buzz, Chili and left Ie in some sort of future, some like sort of floating den. There was very much their vibe.

It was off of fan mail, and of course we remember the theme was like Y two K digital and it's the video is sort of interspersed with cuts to a bunch of monitors that say things like probe searching or digital search or these very new concepts at the time, Like computers were huge at this time, and so what they did was they blended the idea of computers with the idea of and so they took those two things and put them together. And honestly, this is an absolute

bob of a song. Its lyrics are beautiful and the video took it to the next level. You got acting from the girls and I love it when to pop star acts and we can't have tlc araser no no no, I mean, and we can't have a raiser over the fact that t Bas went on Celebrity Apprentice and was and had to make an impression for our current president. Isn't that crazy? Oh my god, to think that these celebrities had to dance, and to think that t Bas had something like unpretty inside her and she had to

like bow down to Trump. No, like please, Trump needs to have some respect for t Bas and by extension, Chili and left Ie, who we say, rest in peace. Left Eye, you are amazing in an icon. You're amazing in an nicon. What's the next one, man? Well, the next one hundred. Number one on our Top two hundred Items and Culture list is the Austin Powers Trilogy starring Mike Myers. I think we can say this was an

incredible character, an incredible character for Mike Myers. What to be a well and you cannot to speak that it was a trilogy. Oh no, There were three films in this series, which makes it a trilogy by definition. And to think of the characters that were born not just from one film, but two and three films. You had Fat Bastard played by Mike Meyers, Mike, you had gold Member played by Mike Myers. You had Seth Green Scotty,

you had Seth Green a Scotty. I mean, also, never forget probably the iconic character from it all is not even Austin, But I would say Dr Evil. Dr Evil played by Mike Myers play and to think he is out there playing multiple characters, this obviously as an actor who has been involved in sketches, and we know that from his origins at a Saturday night, Yes, which puts him in the family. Which puts him in the family,

you know. And many people say Dr Evil is based on Mr Lorne Michaels can confirm, can neither confirm nor didn't? You have to wow? Okay? And also we have to shout out the amazing women of the franchise. I'm talking about Elizabeth Hurley there and Beyonce Knowles Carter. The fear in Bowen's eyes as he checked in with me that it was in fact Heather ground it was. I was sure that it was Heather. I wasn't sure if you, like had had left Heather Graham's mind behind back in

two thousand three. Excuse me, this is the hangover rature. She had to come back, her incredible performance, her incredible versatile performance of performance in the Hangover and empowered performance. And I think we can all agree that Austin powers was comedically a formidable trilogy when and it's time. I'm saying you and I have talked about how I mean,

I love Austin powers me too. It's I'm not lying, and I wanted to do a fourth is our energy mannic Right now, I am is hitting me sideways, it's fucking me sideways, and I am who maybe that someone's getting sideways. I'm amped, I'm not. Let's talk about Can we talk about something? What did the math? I have not had sex since December? You did? For a second, I thought you said I did meth. I said I didn't have math, and you have had sex since when I did meth? And I did the math and I

have not had sex since December. We don't have to we can cut this. That's six months. Yeah, and we're not going to bitch bitch, Well, we'll have to find someone who's COVID free in Los Angeles for you. I I literally implore, like, it's going to be such a fabulous experience for the person fucking you end for you to have sex, so much pressure on them and on it doesn't need to be a lot of pressure, and you know what, it should be fun. It's actually real

culture number eleven sex should be five. We are minutes into this episode, SIPs into our drinks and a hundred ninety seven away from our top number one moment and culture. So our number one nine seven moment of culture is ocean expedition slash exploring of our world. See that you put this in explain this. I think that once we just once we just of her, that we could go into the ocean and discover the bottom of the seas.

That opened the door to so much culture Because think about all the culture we would not have if we hadn't been able to explore the seas of the world. You know, Titanic, which we're going to touch on later, we would never have Titanic fever finding Dory, That's what I'm saying. Finding Dory and also finding Nemo we have. There are so many things that are happening in the ocean that we needed. We required scientists to have the

technology to go around the ocean to discover. Do you have any oceanographers marine biologists that you want to shout out right now? Yes, I would love to shout out Miss Frizzle who got in her Um. Of course, magic school Bus, which was famously was magic and dove to the bottom of the sea. And we should say, right now, as I shout her out, miss Frazzle did not make the top two hundred items. They're sorry we apolished her. Not that she didn't even in, but she just wasn't

one of the top two hundred. She and like we're not talking about her like I I did not. I have not thought of his first and so long, and I can't say that I have either. It took you to bring her up for me to remember who she was. What is your favorite moment in ocean history. I think my favorite moment in ocean history was when I mean, we're to talk about it later. So I don't want to sort of shoot my load as it below the load,

my load as it were. Um. But you know, just even the beginning of Titanic, I remember as a kid, when they were going down into the rusty rest of the ship. I was like, there's something about this that I left. I want to be down there. I want to I want to dig up the little things from the fireplace. And there's something there's something so great about that, and it just made me, you know, if if Titanic,

if I followed that thread a little bit more. If I pulled on that a little bit more, I might have been, you know, the submarine biologist, you know who Bill Paxiston in that movie. I would have been like you might have been like Bill Paxiston in that movie. I've been able to discover many things. But we're an earring. He didn't ear piercing, remember exactly. He did in a shaggy haircut, and they cut a plot line where he fucked Susie Amos, who became James Cameron's But listen to

stay tuned. You're gonna have to stay tuned on that one, because let's just say that we may not be done with Titanic Fever, sir. Not Okay, okay, next one, This next one is an It's Will Smith as a rap pop star who could forget. But you think there's a world where he was a pop star. He was a popular rap artist. I would go so far as to say that his rap was more pop music than it was like hard rap music. Not that rap music has to be hard, but obviously it got more play on

pop radio than it did probably on urban radio. I don't know. I don't have those facts and fingers in front of me. But I think, you know, when someone like Will Smith is singing songs like the Wild Wild West is singing songs like Men in Black is singing songs like with It, you know, I'm thinking, this is someone who's appearing on pop radio with a pop sensibility. And he did really have an impact. He had a huge impact, I would say. I remember, I really did

feel something. I never ended up seeing the movie, but when the Wildlad West trailer played on TV, I was like, there's something so cool about this and and wait, this is a Stevie Wonder song, Like you know, it just opened a lot of doors for me. Culturally. Well, I'm telling you what you missed out on was some iconic Salamahayak culture because she is, of course the female lead in that little film, and there's great performances in it. It's a silly, silly movie, and you do see a

little Will Smith. But in it, who who could dispute that? Who could who who could resist that? No one could resist, especially at that time Will Smith was a movie star and a music star, which gets lost gets lost? And this is the moment in culture that we wanted to sort of canonize in the list right. I wouldn't say anything else that he's done is worth mentioning on this list. Just him as a rap slash pop star, his musical remember, just the two of us. Oh my god, get out

of here, two of us. We can make it. Which iconic culture speaking of iconic musical culture, bowing this one? Number one is the boy is Mine? It just it still holds up in a way that is that Not a lot of culture does that opening that dialogue? I mean what other songs have dialogue to open them? I mean none like this. What we get is a full scene with the two young women, of course, I'm speaking of Brandy and Monica. And would we be able to

do the dialogue right now? Absolutely? Um? Okay, you're that's how that's how we identify. Okay, go excuse me. Can I please talk to you for a minute? Mm hmm sure. You know you look kind of familiar. Yeah you do too, But um, I just wanted to know. I want to I want to know, do you know somebody name? You know his name? Oh? Yeah, definitely, I know his name. Well, I just want to let you know that he's mine. No, no, he is mine. I have a question to ask you

where do you think they were in that scene? What's the place? Because I have a clear answer from the very first moment I heard this as a child, I have a clear answer of where they were. Okay, I'm gonna say they're at a public pool. Okay, that's cool. As an I was in elementary school at the time, and so for me, like the social hub in elementary

school is the cafeteria. Even though so even though these were women in their late teen slash early twenties UM at the time of recording, I imagine them to be in a cafeteria setting of some source. So you did see them in sort of like a high school vibe. I thought it was high school, but even like, more specifically spatially, it was in the cafeteria of my elementary school in Montreal at the time. I get it. So I think for me, I kind of I associate this

as being like a summer jam. Yes, and I think I saw like a pool, yeah, a pool because it was a summer and also just like them, sort of being at a place where one could be with their group of friends and another could be with their group of friends and where does that happen? But I haven't thought about it until this moment. That's isn't an interesting question to ask. So ask yourself, reader, where when you first listen to The Boy's Mind? Where did you think

that Brandy and Monica were in the beginning? And also, any any song, any song that you hear, think, where is this happening there? It's it's actually a really culture number thirty. Any song that you think, where is this happening? Like on the album Chromatica. We can imagine that a lot of those songs are taking place on Chromatica. Yes, but the geopolitical thoughts around music I think are left

out of the conversation right exactly. And you know, speaking of geopolitical thoughts, we are going to move along to um so so much so such a mind went into the creation of this movie. But we're not talking about the writing of the movie. We're talking about a specific performance in the movie. One four on our top two hundred is Rooney Mara in The Social Network. Now, why

is this culturally important? Bow she is in that, the character of Erica in The Social Network, Mark Zuckerberg's fictional perhaps former girlfriend, is in I want to say, three scenes in the entire movie. But she makes an impact I mean she sets up the flaw of Mark Zuckerberg, which is that he is huboristic and whatever only is concerned about being cool, and she delivers iconic lines such as because I watched this movie the other night with my parents. It's on Netflix, and they loved it. They

were like, Mark Zuckerberg is like this. I was like, yes, according to Erin's workin but the line the girls aren't going to not like you because you're a nerd. They're not going to like you because and then the Internet is not written in pencil. I think it's written in ink. I mean, she is really good at this, and I would say it's a tone setting for a fabulous movie.

And also it kind of like did give birth to Rooney Mara David Finch rom Use because then she was famously she was Lizabeth Salander and she was famously on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which got her an Oscar nomination, And would she have done that had she not slaid so hard in the social network? Also iconic be you representation, and there's not enough. There's not enough. We don't see enough be you girls in film, and that's real culture number nine. We don't see enough girls

in film. We're going so slow, we're we're only seven things. Then we're twenty seven bits. And Hans Hans, our producer, said, heads up for twenty seven minutes. And well, no one asked him. Let no one asked him, No one is he's doing a little cute, little um sort of smiley face with the tongue sticking out, but no one asked him what rule culture number I mean, this is not

rutal culture. This is moment moment Number one is who wants to I won five thousand dollars and Studie Green was my phone, my phone a friend a plus one because they got rid of phone a friend. It was a very much not a lucrative moment, but it wasn't entertaining moment. And Chris Harrison shook her hand very hard. Chris Harrison did a Trump shake on my hand where he shook it and pulled me into a certain dominance

over me. And you can find it online and I am not lying, And okay, let's move on to number snatch game perform. Wanted you to come up and suck me in the ass sometime. I think the undisputed best snatch game performance ever followed very closely by jinx is Little Lady. Absolutely, I would. And really what this does, This Alaska's May West moment on the list really represents all snatch games because it is a moment of culture.

It's a moment of culture. So we're moving forward. Number one on the list of top two moments in culture history. It's the game tag You know what you love it? You played it likely with many girls. They made a movie about it. Yes, And it's the game of when you are running around and you tag some with your hands and they become quote it. Yes, it's actually real culture. Number four, when you are tagged, you are, you become quote unquote. It's let's just keep going. Number one nine

The Jaws Ride opens at Universal Studios. Now, this was an iconic moment in my personal culture and I think the culture of many, which was you could board a ship in the Universal Studios in Amity Arbor and that ship would be repeatedly attacked by the villainous shark Jaws. And how it Jaws mete its demise It would bite onto an electrocuted wire. Well, yes, it would bite onto

the electrocuted wire and explode in flames. It would then arrived at the surface of the water as a charred mess, and then it launches at the boat one final time. The skipper shoots a shotgun that it finally dies, and um, that is how you survived the Menace of Jaws. And I can say here and now it no longer exists, but for the one in Japan. Yes, but you've got to go out there in Japan if you want to ride it. Otherwise I just can't help you. We're going

to go there some day very soon. Once say, okay, one is Mario? Oh my god, who hasn't played this? Hasn't played this one? You love it? You love it? And who are you usually when you play? I'm usually a peach in the old school games, But in the New School games, I like to be a warrio. I like to be a toad At, So you like to be a warrior on a toad at. I am always going to be misstowed. You love mistowed. I love toad

because I feel she was moving around the fastest. I love the kind of sounds she made, such as this, yeah, like I thought that that was so enthusiastic, And I loved her her freedom. I don't know why I'm calling could tote a female. I don't think totally has a job miss gender to tote is mail. You feel this one tote is Mail. There is a famously trans character in the Mario cannon, which is Burdo. Who is Burdo? I would I would say, I should say Birdo is trans.

That's a real thing. Yes, she's she was assigned Mail at birth. And in the lore of the second Mario, like the whole thing was bird like back then. And this is like the rough Japanese translation, but it was Burdo thinks he's a girl. But then like Mario, Nintendo have like sort of grown along with the time socially and they're like, no, Burdo's trans is that serious? Serious? Look it up, like, oh my god, I love that.

Moving on to one hundred, number one hundred. It's Vegas residence really made being in Vegas what it is, and she kept it for so long. She kept it going for something. It was the double e thing to do with your mother and when you were in Vegas. Absolutely, and you know she's also kept those vocals up. We can see her with that mask on, that sort of saline mask with iconic culture. Is that image and we have to think Renee. We have to think Renee. We

can't really get into how it's a little probb. It feels a little predatory to me that Renee, you know, went after Selene, you went there. You really we have to it's we got to talk about these things. We love. We love it. Selene loved him. Um, but you know, we've got a question Renee's motives. That's certainly an odd relationship, but one that did stand the test of time and um, she was with him until his dying day. And you know, Selene, we thank you for your incredible talent, the way you

touch of the world. And we remember Renee, even though we have questions about the genesis of the relationship. But that's really none of our business, is it. French Canadian queen, French Canadian queen. We just bring it up. Um, We're just bring it up. We bring it up, and that's our roles to bring it up. Now, bowen. One number Nadia achieving a perfect ten and gymnastics had never been done before, and then she did it so many times at that Olympics. You know she received over six top

ten score ten perfect tense. You know this off the top of your head, I looked it up actually today because I was thinking about putting it on the list, and then I saw that you had already added it, and I thought, Okay, we are simpatico because I also just recently watched the documentary athlete A on Netflix, which is a startling watch but I think an important watch, and they talked about how Nadia was like the prototype for that young, young, young girl that they created into

like an Olympics monster the world over, because China's fucked up with no completely fucked and I mean the fact of the matter is like we have to have a serious looked at the way we are sort of grooming these young girls to be these these machine athletes, because oh, we see that in the US it kind of got a little out of control. And by a little control, I mean a lot out of control. The doctor was a sexual predator. So, oh my god. But was it

an achievement that Nadia's got those tens? Yes, when it was a moment in culture. Let's go to one A six, what is this shell? The shining Wow, we all remember her running about that house with the knife. I mean the screams, the most iconic screaming film history. Oh, can you do it? It's pretty good. Sorry, Oh my god. Literally our engineer Dug I know, his head absolutely exploded on that one. But she was giving you and Stanley

Kubrick was I mean psychologically torturing this poor woman. Impact on her because Mr Vall, we hope she's doing well now, but you know, things took a turn. I'm those were the glory days of Shelley. But now like she's like she was in an interview like a few years ago, just like she's in a bad way. She um you know. I I think we got an amazing performance out of her, But at what cost? At what cost did great culture? Let's keep going, Okay, So number one eighty five is

the name Amanda Culture. So there are so many millions of women across America are named Amanda. And this is a name that, you know, very similar to the name Chris. I think with men, Amanda has really taken over. And Amanda has absolutely revolutionized the Hollywood industry because every publicist was named Amanda. Yes, many managers and agents named Amanda, and some talent named Amanda. Some talent is named Amanda. I would say that Amanda made a huge impact on

the culture. But not even just in showbiz. Let's not limited to show biz. No, I would say in classroom, in elementary school, classrooms, everywhere where, there were at least four Amanda's in every class. Amanda. Really when we were growing up, it really took the world by storm. From the years nineteen eight seven to nine two, they were approximately a billion Amanda's. A billion Amanda's who are now

in positions of middle management and even executive leadership. And you cannot dispute Amanda, but you know, we don't forget the Amandas that have been left behind, you know. And and some Amanda's um they feel that they must shorten their name to Mandy, and we're thinking of them. We're thinking of them, and we are not going to tell you what to do either way. But you know, just to go back to your roots. You're an Amanda. You have our support. Number one hundred eighty four on our

top two hundred list. Dakota Fanning sets a child actress precedent, and it's eaten by her own sister l Who could forget when Dakota Fanning really set the tone for child actresses and then was eaten by her own sister l Fanna Yeah, what do you think was the last great Dakota Fanning work. I want to say it's Uptown Girls. I was gonna say it's Uptown Girls and World War World World, World War of the World. Where are the

roles she was? I mean, excellent. If you can hold your own opposite Tom Cruise, Oh my god, you're really something. You are a real talent if you can hold your own off against that crazy man. But let's not forget. I mean, once upon a time in Hollywood she played. I didn't see this. She's phenomenal. Well, she's an incredible talent. She's an incredible talent, and you know that she consistently works in television. Now on that show with um with Evans,

I watched this show. Who is like fully gay? By the way, I didn't realize that. Oh my god. No, he's like literally the hottest and he's very gay on his Instagram And he said this thing on Pride where he posed his boyfriend, and I didn't realize he had come out. And then I realized maybe he never did, which I love, which, oh god, he didn't have to

publicize it too much. Oh, here we go. Someone wrote the alienist Angel of Darkness so what we've got here is Hans has come in and a huge bold made us know that the series that's a coded Fanning is in is called the Alienist. But we of course remember her best from her incredible form performances in Uptown Girls. I Am Sam, I Am Sam. Member of that movie. She did this scary movie with Robert de Niro, Hide

and Seek, that was shocking, shocking. Wait, we have to talk about L. We're ignoring the l of it all and she completely ate her own sister. I mean L came in and was in Maleficent one end two. L was coming in as a child actress, and she was more of a teen like now she's in the Great getting amazing notices, but like Super eight into into Um. She was a kid in super She was a kid in super Ate at that UM that that movie, that Sofia couple of movie. She was incredible and the Begot

very funny, very funny. In the Beguild. She's really come out and also twenty century women don't forget women. She's so good. She's got the damn resume and Dakota used to have the resume. But that's what happens when you said a precedent is your own sister might eat you. But we're saying that Dakota is still very much established and working on very good projects. She is a gold standard. She's just not sort of um. She couldn't have stayed a child forever. Yeah, I mean, well, you know, I

hope that she comes back with an adult role. Yes, okay, So when number one is the Real House of Pa. You've got Karen, You've got Hug, You've got Giselle. Oh oh, We've got an amazing cast, and also real drama, real steaks, and honestly, the other franchises need to take a page out of the Potomac book. Scale it back, get human drama, real drama, and honestly, we need a full reboot of these other franchises. And I'm not afraid to say it

on this podcast. Nothing is doing what Potomac is doing, and for that it gets listed on our Number three on top two hundred moments of culture history is the is the cocktail hitting you? Yes? Number one two is Rosie Perez dancing the right on this specifically in the opening credits, to do the right thing. Obviously a huge movie seminal movie one of Spike Lee's best works. But Rosie Perez Dancing to Fight the Power Um huge. I mean what a huge moments, sexual, powerful, political, all at once.

And you couldn't have had it with anyone else but Mrs Rosie Perez, who went on to do great things and she was an Oscar nominee for the film Fearless and we respect. Number one eight one is Adam Lambert and Clay a a K. Lambert and claymate culture a k a. Middle aged women love. I think enough has

been said about that, and we speak for itself. Number one Jane Workouts because she's most commonly I think known as an actress and an activist, but we know her primarily as a bund of steel queen, a woman in five acts, a woman with buns of steel. Oh please, revolutionizing the way white women got their skinny little tight booties. Yes, and it was a revolution. It was not televised, but on tape. Oh, the revolution will be on tape. It's

actually a real culture. Number two hundred, The revolution will be on tape if Jan Fonda had anything to say about it is the second half of Gone Girl, the book Girl, When You, When You, when that twist hit you, that she was still alive. Spoiler alert, I've never had more fun while the cool girl monologue, Oh that was writing. Thank you, Gillian flanned you served it up on that one. Thank you, and and Viv getting recast on Fresh Friends. Now, why did this happen? And why is it important that

we comment on it? And you know there's no time we're gonna move on to one hundred seventy seven, number one seventies seven Emily Blond take out work. And this was Emily Blonde absolutely entering the main stage and you were like, who is this woman? Is she really British because she's laying on this accent and thick But then you find out, oh, she really is British. But the moments in that movie I love my job, I love

my job, I joined job. And also you can never forget only one stomach flew away from my goal weight. I have patrick amazing, unbelievable. I mean, listen, Emily Blonde. We have her today because of her Golden Globe nominated work of the Divorce Product and we hashtag stam to wait before we move on. Remember when her and Anne Hathaway president of the Oscars for Mayor all that year and it was a whole bit and it was like funnier than any you know, any comedy, any comedy I've

ever seen. It was funnier than any comedy I've ever seen. In Emily Blond, I'll never forget when she when she snaps her fingers like you tell Anne Hath the way to go into the room. So good, so good, so good. So speaking of the ladies who are high fashion, we have number one hundred seventy six Rihanna at Wow the met Ball Gala. Bowen Yanga is feeling has Red Bull Vodka. Now, what are some incredible looks of Rihanna at the Mecca. I'm of course always remembering her yellow moment with that

huge circular train. Oh my god. We always remember the Pope outfit, papal paple um, the Catholic imagination theme. Of course, we remember so much Rihanna. She is the number one met Galla moment. She is the staple. And remember she is out there, you know, not necessarily making music, but she has pivoted to fashion in a way that is controversial, but we respect. I'm for it. I'm all for it. I'm for it. Okay. So one hundred seventy five, every time Kenny died on Park and they say, oh my god,

you killed bastard, you bastard. It was really Cartmon who said you can. And remember when every kid in elementary school was doing their Cartman voice. I remember this so so so vividly. And I remember moving from Montreal to Colorado and then all the kids in the third grade being like, well, you're moving to where they where they do South Park, That's where South Park is. And I was like, that actually gave me a lot of cool capital right as I was leaving. And so there we go.

That's local culture. And now one seventy four is the Big Bang to be the beginning of our universe is the Big Bang, which was a huge I don't how did it happen. Um, I think it happened like one Adam, you know, kind of got sucked up and then started the whole and then and then the universe started to expand. Well thank god, well, thank god, I mean you really can't. Yeah, we have the Big Bang to thank for all of

the us. We really do, wouldn't you say, I mean, we would not be sitting here without the Big Bang. And so I definitely pour out some respect to ha Alright, so this is one seventy three. This is Kate Notes on a scandal saying you want to bar I just think a screenplay that we remember. Yes, Number one seventy two is claymation technology. Claymation technology. Now this is the act of sort of making little clay figures and sort of making them move. And then we get amazing things

like Chicken Run. Like Chicken Run darring mel Gibson. We get I forgot that he was in that, and he was just dropped from the Chicken Run sequel for all of his resurfaced anti semitic and when he was just dropped from the Chicken Run sequel, part of the news that kind of maybe got lost in the mel Gibson news cycle of it all after Winona writer decided to speak out again, thankfully, is that they were good at DreamWorks. Was I think going to do another Chicken Run with

mel Gibson attached, like some twenty years later? But it's like, we don't have we can't have mel Gibson in movies anymore. I don't think we can have mel Gibson and film anymore. Technology stands as the number one seventy two, but we're happy we have claimation. Of course, Rudolph, Rudolph, I think I think it qualifies. Okay, So number one hundred seventy one is Nicole's Pitman's American accent as seen in Big Little Lies, as seen in many films, are American accent

is very American. I would say it's very Australian. Wow, I would say it's very Australian learning American. There you go, and that's the perfect middle grounds. And one hundred seventy is American accent. Yes, of course it's very stressed. You know. You can hear this in you know such films as Revolutionary Road six, films as Steve Jobs, and you know Titanic which stay tuned, stay tuned, actually know Steve Jobs. She played, like, ah, yes, yes, I don't know why

I said Steve Jobs. There were some interesting accent work going on in there, and that Oscar nominated performance. Of course, one hundred sixty nine on our list is American accent. You're so infuriating. I can't even come up with the line. I think women have lives. I don't even know what the full line. She definitely is American in those films.

Outside of the films, she's decidedly not. And we see that sort of dialogue between Sarsha, between Nicole, between Kate, but for none, for none of them, do I think? I don't think the accident work takes away from the performance exactly. And you know what three talents, three huge white women talents. Yeah, and so speaking of talents and white women, number one is Christine Apple and all of

her many projects. Can you speak to some of these projects that Christine Applegate has been involved, you know, as someone who's still hasn't seemed dead to me, I still appreciate this. Hold on, let me say, married with Children huge, Yes, yes, Anchor man Legend, Ron Burgundy, come on, iconic, And Samantha be Samantha Samantha not Samantha b Smanthody is famously someone else.

We also have um the incredible bad Moms, Bad Moms, Oh my god, who could forget just and honestly, if no one has seen dead to me out there, and some have, it's not like no one has seen it, but you have to check it out. Dead to me is culture, and of course also culture is Linda Cardalini, who unfortunately did not but we do shout her out on sixty seven Christmas, Well, could you even have culture without Christmas? I don't think you could have culture without Christmas.

For Christmas to have its own genre of music, it might as well be country. You know, Oh, it might as well be country. It's actually a rule of culture number fifty. Christmas might as well. My country is not on the left, it's not on the last country. Music did not make it, did not make it, but Christmas as a season, as a holiday, as a vibe, definitely made it. Because you know, what affects so many people in terms of you know, and I hate to say it,

but the capitalist sort of machines. Yes, you know, it's like saying like, you can't you can't be like I don't see color in a racist society, even though it's a social construct. Capitalism is a social construct. You can't say I don't believe in money, um, but you can and you can't say I don't believe in Christmas because we live in a Christmas culture. We live actually in a Christmas culture. And actually, if you really think about how many months out of the year Christmas decides it's

optimal culture, it's really crazy. And we need to be talking about it, and I say, where's that is when the French judge was not fair towards the Canadian skaters. You remember this, I actually don't. And you put this on the list tonight. Oh my god. This is when the Canadians doubles figures skaters were absolutely incredible when they go this is years ago and there was doubles figure skating and the Russian couple beat them, even though the

Canadian figure skaters are absolutely slate it. And then you found out it came out that the French judge had a biased vote and it was a little bit of a fix going in, so they gave them co gold medals. Oh my god, I can't believe you of Canadian culture don't remember when the Canadian figure skaters got the shop. Why isn't there a movie optioned about that? Well, we should write it. And that's the thing is like, when there's not a movie of things you have you have

tote it. And that's a rule culture number seventeen. When there's not a movie of things, you have to write them. Let's move on to skills conversations debate. I mean it's a tales all the time, people debating what's better Eminem's for skittles? Where do you stand? I stand firmly on the side of my eminem sisters. Okay, what do you say as someone who enjoys sweets and sugary sweets over chocolate.

I'm a Skittles girl, and I love skittles and I always will the beginning of a new conflict between us. The beginning let's move on to this is Jonas inventing the polio vaccine Gone Fish. Tell us about Miss sal Miss Salk was successful in the concept of noculating your immune system with a weaker version of a virus such as polio, such as coronavirus. And this is gonna be a thing that sort of lifts as all, hopefully out of the current squalor that we're in. I mean, you know,

let's not get too used to this, yep. Where the goal is to get out of this situation with the help of multiple vaccines, several of them in phase three trials at the moment of this recording in late June. And you know, we will not achieve herd immunity if we don't if if, if enough people do not get vaccinated. So let's we have to beat back this tide of the anti vax movement and make sure that everyone gets

equitable access to a vaccine once it is invented. Number one sixty three is big Old Meg the Stallion absolutely burst onto the scene Hot Girl Summer, indeed Hot Girl Lifetime, more like how Girl Lifetime. We're like, we would not have Hot Girl Summer, we would not have none fast Ship or the Savage Dream Mix or um Her Girls.

I mean this was this was to me the single that's that launched Megan's career because I would agree And this is the first one you turned to my attention, and I knew that you were serious about it because of the way you squealed, and you are a squiller for Megan and I am too. Can you can you just tell the listeners that I was in on the ground floor with Megan. I will I can confirm to the listeners. Boon Yang was one of the first to even be speaking about Megan v. Stallion in the way

that we all are. You know, I'm just saying like you need to respect just like we need to respect. Number one sixty two Joe Millionaire. This, of course, was the reality show where several contestants thought that the suitor they were competing for was a millionaire named Joe Millionaire. His name I think was actually Evan. It was revealed to the ladies that, um, he actually was not a millionaire after all. He was like a simple farm person and the woman he picked, Zora, had to deal with

that and they did not make it. They did not make it, but there was a lot of tension in that final episode because the Door first said no, rejected the proposal, and then said she came back and said yes. I think probably because she was trapped in a situation and coerced by producers. I'd be very curious to see how the Doors doing now. Unfortunately we won't have that answer in this episode, but perhaps in a future installment.

Number one sixty one is art Pop. I mean an amazing album, I think, ahead of its time, ahead of its time. As our friend Sam Taggart has written about in Vulture, it is her Pinkerton. It is the album that was released to critical panning, and then over time has developed a nice petina and we've all sort of we listened back to it and this is actually genius. Applause is amazing. We were too hard on it. Donna Tella is incredible. G u Y watched the video again.

It's the last time Kyle Richards and Lisavanner pop were able to be in the same place, and um, do what you Want unfortunately a great song, but we have the Christina Aguilera version, Yes we Do, which is a definitive version which I believe is superior. And also never forget the ballad Dope Dope, Oh No. I like she performed indentures that the YouTube music Festidium and number one

sixty is another song. It's called this song Somewhere Over This famously appeared in the film Wizard of Oz and went on to have a quiet and impact on the culture. It's you know, we we we get to graft a lot of queer meaning onto the song. Now, um, you know the song also in terms of the filmic narrative aspect of it, you know, sets up Dorothy's want and

it's beautiful. It's sort of gets us into Act two of the movie, which is when she lands in Oz when she said it's a favorite of American Idol contestants Kimberly Locker and I'm so happy that when we talk about Somewhere over the Rainbow, we also say the name Kimberly lock Um number one. Kelly Rowland saying she's the second lead vocalist of the group. Huge, I mean when she proclaimed that she was the second lead vocalist of

the group and she earned that look from Beyonce. This is a YouTube video that you can all look up. Just type in Kelly Rowland second lead vocalist other group. You will not be upset that you did. Kelly Roland invented a sort of role in groups and musical groups, called the second lead vocalist of the group. Even though the term lead vocalist would imply that there's only one second lead vocalist means would would would require us to believe there are two lead vocalists and one is sort

of Maine and one a second. And honestly, she did correctly label herself she was the second LEO and this was didn't she say this during the first generation of Destiny's Child? She said it when there were still four when there was four, so in a way you can be like if it was just her, Michelle and Beyonce, and she was like, I'm the second lea focus of the group. That's a huge fu you to Michelle, But what she's saying it when there's four, that's a funk

you to LaTavia LaToya. Yes, obviously, I mean she didn't mean any harm. But at that point, could she have done anything correctly? Probably not. Probably was held to be Kelly Rowland. Number one is USA South Carolina answer to her debate question, Um, I forget what it was. It was about textbooks or something. Well, she definitely mentioned textbooks and how there needs to be more education in schools, but please look up on YouTube miss team USA South

Carolina to answer epically bad. Yes, you all know what. You all love it, don't you. We've got to move on because this is almost an hour in and we are nowhere near getting to the top love the list. So Number one hard for these seven is share disappearance on Will and Grace. What chemistry with Sean Hayes. She

has chemistry with Sean Grace. You know that was thirty minutes of work door to door and she was incredible And that was that was famously where we developed a vocabulary around a good term term and also she said snap out of it and earned a check. Number one is Simon and Randy. Remember these three, these were the three in a lot of ways the original three yes, and they are really the three yes. Now going forward, we have one when Keen and ll did the orange

tell us why it's so important? Well, this was so good because it was a reliable bit in the show Keenan and Kelly that happened I think every episode, I think was every episode then very close to and really what Kel was asking was who loves orange soda? And by the time the bit was over, you knew what the answer was, Kell, Kell loves soda? Is it true? He do? He? Do? He? Do you? And this actually really did enforce upon us in a young communic age

that really comedy is commitment and its repetition. It's commitment, it's repetition, it's volume, volume, and it's saying things in a voice. And we should just say that keenan Kel are sketch comedy legends and icons. They are the legendary to the legendary too. Let's keep going. Speaking of legendary too, Number one is Mr and Mrs Smith. Oh they met

on the side of that film. And boy, let me tell you it was caputz for Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anison at that point because brand Jelina stepped out to the scene and they were the power couple for a little while there. Don't you love that this huge Hollywood are a couple of ment on the set of a fine movie. I think it's a good movie, and I think if you saw it again you would actually agree with me. And it is hashtag and early Carrie Washington vehicle.

You're right, it's an early Carry Washington vehicle. If you look up any sort of screenwriting, like treatment examples Mr and Mrs Smith. For some reason, the treatment is available and everyone sort of gets to read that and model their treatments in their outlines. Number one of the three is the great book, not the movie. The book. The book. This is a very important book. If you're in high school, you probably read it. Yes, you're in high school. You don't need to see the movie. No one needs to

see the movie. It's not Bosslerman's finest work. I don't think that would be Mulan Rouge. I would say that would be Mulan Rouge. I think the book is great. I think the book is short. It's you can read it in one night when sitting. Um. We love that cover with the eyes, Oh, the cover with the eyes. Now one fifty two is Jamila Jamal's multiple slash con conflicting stories about chased by bees. Now, can you elaborate

on this? She has multiple accounts where she talks about the kind of very uh distressing experience of being chased by bees out onto a street with moving cars. The setting is vary from um like temporally and um geographically that she was in England and she was young and teenager, or that she was or that this happened two weeks ago outside the u N when the Pakistani delegation was visiting,

or or something like that. I mean, there's just a lot of stories of Jamie and jamil firsthand accounts of her being chased by bees onto a street, and you know, it's I think it's iconic culture. I think it's moving the culture forward. We get to sort of talk about bees and their place in our celebrities lives. Well, yeah, I would agree, but I also I'm concerned for her, and I wish that Jamilla would stay inside. You know, I'm concerned for her if every time she leaves her

home that she has a be encounter. I hope that she finds a way, you know, to really do a lot of work from inside. I bet quarantine has actually been kind of good for her because you can sort of sit at the computer and not worry about bees, unless you know they're so obtested with her that they're making a weight into her home, which I really hope is not the case. And we're wishing, wishing the best for your Jamilia, and we're thinking of we love you, Jamila,

And this is number is speaking of bees. Honeys keep Jamila, You're not gonna want to eat any honey cheos because these are famously honey nuts cherios. I mean their cheerios that are covered in honey nut. What do you think honey nut is um? I think it's when bees come. Now we're going to move on to one D fifty Witches. Natalie and Meals relationship in Black Swan. Wow, who could forget the film Black Swan and the relationship they're in

between Natalie and Milia. Natalie really kind of playing the role of the white swan here and then mel playing the role of the titular black Swan, and the question loving in the air, will Natalie have what it takes to sort of become the black Swan and what does that mean for Mela. Now, do you think Mila is dead by the end of the movie. I would say that she's a lie. Natalie has sort of envisioned the Black Swan and the Mila that comes to her later on in the movie spoiler alert, who she stabs and

puts in the closet. Do you remember this part? No, because you remember at the end of the movie, Mila appears and it's we're to assume as the audience that Mila was never really there antagonizing Natalie was all in her head. But Natalie is definitively dead by the end of the movie. I would say, I think that's what the director, Darren Aronofsky and Natalie would want to get across. But you know it's open to insterpretation, like a lot

of film. And you know, all of our readers watch Black Swan and let us know what you think about the ending we want to hear. Let's move on to one nine, which is Michelle Kwan never winning gold medal. No, she never was that gold medalist. She's the Amy Adams glen Close of the Olympic, Susan Lucci of the Olympics. Well, you know, Susan Luci ended up winning her at me. Then you can't even say she's this. You can't even say, like Jackie Cox can't even say she's the Susan Lucci

of drag No. So so Michelle, you know, we all thought Salt Lake City was her year, and it wasn't. It really was that. The fact that was Sarah Hughes is year. We end You're the Serra Hughes and I'm the Michelle Kwan of podcasting. Yeah yeah, I guess that makes me a gold medal winner while you're just in squaw absolutely with my with my Mani Silvers. This is she endorsed Biden too early. Alright, So number one hundred eight is Meryl Streets acting. She is an amazing act

I think she's one of the better actors. I think that she's up there amongst the best actors that we have. What's her favorite Meryl Street performance? I got to say, I love Meryl Streep in The Iron Lady, and she won an Oscar for it, you know, and it deserved Oscar and it wasn't at all batty or it wasn't. It was one of my favorite films. One of those dynamic films I've ever seen is the Iron Lady, the most exciting films where so much happens and you get

to see such a thrilling portrayal of dementia. That's amazing. I don't know mine. Um Okay, So one is the upside Down in the Rain and Spider Man. Wow, remember this, it was happening in the rain. It was upside down. Kirsten Dunch told me, why are with a secret? Good body? She was writing that like tank Top, you can see her in n applause. They were absolutely just two people

in love and they were really dating, kissing in an alleyway. Yeah, and you know has come out and said that it was actually was very hard too because the water kept going up his nose. Hashtag comedic moment. Hashtag comedic moment. Oh my gosh. And that's such a fun moment. Okay. So, so the next two moments in history are a tie. It's a tie, so tied for one and one six are Michelle Yo in Crazy Rich Asians crowding Tiger in

a Dragon. I guess we should just talk about MICHELLEO as a whole because these two performances are very different, very different, very dynamic, and we have to we have to remind the reader in case they don't know already that we met her one time. We met her when she was doing press first Star Trek when we were interviewing her at Vulture Fest, and she was very cool, very cool, and she had a lot of reverence from her castmates, and we and I even slept in a

quick thing. And this was before Crazy Rotations came out. But I was like, I'm so excited for Crazy rot Asians. I like, I kind of crossed the boundary and I feel weird about it. I don't feel you did, but I was like, I was like, it's all I said was it's very inspiring to me. And I looked during her eye and she and she her facial expression changed in a way that was like she registered what I was saying to her as an Asian person and she was like thank you. And I really felt it. She

is a dream. You saw that movement, right, Oh? I saw it. I mean we were both there. I mean it was very obvious that she was the international star in the room and she was treated as such, which we love. Number one hundred is Kale's designation as a super food. Kale has really had a moment. I would say Kle as soon as they said it's a super food. I mean that was like the Debbie tump ball and

he saw Kale everywhere. Oh, and I think that you know what song sounded different after that cut in, Oh, I think that became about Kale and you were like, this is about Klee. But I said seven eleven because Beyonce wore that famous sweatshirt that said Kale on it. She was iconic a mats and that sweatshirt, and then you all of a sudden you saw people wearing it, people like you, people like me. I don't think that's much right, I have different Beyonce. You have a Kale.

I'll have a kick by have a kick by the pound one. Sorry, you know me better. Number onety three is let me blow your mind by even Stefan, do do do drop your asses shake? No, drop your glasses shake. They screwed up like you and Stefani. This was like the first solo venture man iconic. Her first solo venture at Side of Your Doubt was a feature on something like that. Yeah, that was one of the first times we saw and just went Stefani in a way that was like, Okay, maybe there's going to be a moment

here and and there was indeed a moment. There wasn't in a moment it because it hasn't held up, it does not make our cultural list. But Halliback Girl, despite being a moment, the album L A M B. Unfortunately we cannot condone the horror Juku girls of it all, and it does not even make it into the top

four on our list. Although I will say the closest sort of candidate that win Stefani would have had on this list was on the song make Me Like You, which came out, Um, she just has a hook in there or like a motif I would say, where she keeps going, oh god, remember that. I actually have to say something, Yes, I remember that, and I take it back. She is on the list. Well we'll we'll find out why she's on the list, but for now, Number one two,

Ryan Philipps. But it cruel intention. This is a great as. It's an amazing ass. We saw it in the pool light and you know who else saw it, Weatherspoon. And she had to marry she mary that she married that ass. You're gonna have to marry that as. You're gonna have to marry that ass. Okay, so then a number hundred forty one is the blank that that has monologue. Can you do it? The clearance, that that has the international occasions, that that has the profile, that that has a huge moment,

and it can apply to so much. Thank you in Navarro, Thank you. One of the only top Republicans, one of the only acceptable Republicans. No, she's the only one. I mean, I don't even know she's identifying as a Republican anymore. I mean, she might identify as conservative, but she's certainly not going along. She's a trump pater. She's voting red. What she's voting red, she's like voting for like red cannon like Republican. We'll see about that, okay. Number one

hundred forty is disco. An amazing movement in music, a huge movement in music. Thank you, Disco, Thank you so much. Number one nine is Terry Hatcheris and Clark. Really it was her first emergence on the scene. Was her incredible sort of performance as Lewis Lane and Lewis and Clark. This is before Desperate Housewives, this is before Desperate Housewives. I remember watching Lewis and Clark as a child and being like, this is the most beautiful woman I've ever

seen in my life. She's certainly that. She's certainly that number one. Dty eight is the World of Pandora, A Disney's Animal Kingdom. I mean, we've gotten our life here. We've eaten at what was that beautiful steakhouse that we've even see that wasn't in Animal Kingdom. It was called Tiffins. But I mean is that wasn't at the World of Pandora. It's right when you it's on the way to World of pandas well. This is this I'm looking you in the eyes and telling you Tiffins is in a different

area of the park, but it's the closest. It's the closest three dollar sign restaurant and eating eatery in Animal Kingdom. That's closest to Pandora. It is the nicest restaurant there, but it is not in the World of Pandora. And we are talking about the World of Pandora, right, Let's talk about the World of Pandora. It's got the beautiful plans,

the bioluminescent plans. I'm happy that you enjoyed Tiffins. I love because I have booked that for us and I want to say I went to Tiffins with Michael Hartney with Wow, You've been to Tiffins multiple times. I've been to Tiffins with Michael Hartney, I've been to Tiffins with um people, with Charlie Hankin of the probably everywhere we went for a job in Orlando, and then this was right when Pandora opened and we went to Animal Kingdom

and we got our life at Tiffins. And we should say that Tiffins is great, but it is not on the list top two hundred things in culture. The world of Pandora is, and we don't have time to talk about it, don't unfortunately. Number one seven is Patty Harrison reveals Feud with Ellen podcast. Now, this was an incredible moment where we've had really a first celebrity feud unveiled

on our podcast. This was a big deal and it kind of developed over Patties appearances on the podcast, where at first it was Ellen just being generally transphobic and Patty taking a shoe with that, and then on Patty's second appearance on the show, she talked about a specific incident where Ellen um murdered a lot of concert which is Patti's first her first night in her tour at Stockholm and flipped onto the stage and called Patty mini slurs.

And we should all say, this is all quote unquote alleged. So this is an alleged feud, but that happened between pop stars Patty Harrison and now the generous and only she can confirm. But um, thank you Patty for being brave and thank you to share your story here on the podcast. UM. And number one hundred thirty six is

Michelle Fiver as a cat woman and Batman returns. Who could forget what she got pushed out of that window by Christopher Walking and then she was licked alive by cats and became a supervillain really and and put together the most formfitting sort of costume that we've ever seen in supervillain history. Oh, unbelievable. She had to be sewn into the costume in real life. Just a little culture

of fact there. So Number one d thirty five on the list is Marilyn Monroe and by extension, Smash, So we wouldn't have Smash the show the musical they're in without really Marilyn Monroe, who was a bombshell to the Bombshell, the namesake Bombshell and Smash with the musical television show that we would not have had had it not been for Marilyn Monrose existence. Some like it hot, more like we like it Maryland, We like it, Norma Jean. Let's

keep going on. The motor roll Raiser, Now, the motor roll Eraser was a huge phone back in the day, the aspirational phone, in fact, the iPhone before they were iPhones. I mean it was the motor ill Eraser, the Sidekick, and BlackBerry all sort of swirling in the same pool. But as you know, in our lives and our sort of developments as non solvent financial, non financially solvent high school students, I mean, the motor role E Razor was the closest thing we could get to like status phone.

When you say, was that the one that went pretty when you texted someone? It was like, I'm not sure. Okay, well we can move on a number one thirty three? Is Were you ever a kid? No, I was more like a tamagotchi girl. Okay, I respect that. What is neo pets to you? Neopets to me was kind of the first I understood that the internet could be a vessel for capitalism, where you know, if you had to stay, if you wanted your neo pet to stay at the nice hotel, you had to pay a huge amount of

neo coins wherever the currency was. And I was like, oh, this is how the world works in real life, but it's on the internet and this made up world of animals. So it was an intro to capitalism for you, absolutely, and then therefore it makes it onto the list. It makes it on the list because you had to earn money by playing games with your pets to make them happy and to feed them, and if they weren't fed,

then they would die and you would feel bad. It was just similar to Toma, similar to Tamagtcha, but with Tamagotchi there wasn't this whole economy around do you want to give your pet a massage, it has to make the nice massage place. Like the social status and the cast system of society as it were, was sort of grabbed onto the world of neopets, and you learned a lot as a kid. I so so really um Toma got you with more about life or death, and Pats

was more about like a commercial society totally understand. Number one two is when people started saying slash typing l L. Now this has really taken ahold of the culture in a way that I don't think we could have anticipated in the beginnings of a O L instag messenger. L O L not only did it arrive in the scene in a big way, but it is here to stay. I mean, you've got people saying l O L in real life. L O L has really lasted far beyond B R B or G two G T T y L.

I mean, who says these thing? Cares about T T y L. We say L L all the time. It transcends demographics, that transcends age groups, that transcends race. What what can we say that transcends race? Not much? But l O L definitely does. L O L is used the world over. No. Number one one, speaking of you know sort of things technologically took the world of flame. This is the invention of gone all the days when you had to call someone later and be like, hey,

I'll get you this money later. No, no, no, Now you can just text the girl the cash over the internet and there was no excuse. It's like, hey, you haven't venmoed me. You haven't fulfilled my venmo in a while. Oh yeah. Now you know when someone is troublesome in your life if they have not fulfilled your venmo. And I'm thinking actually of Bow and Yang for many years was a vanmo bandit you you still really take a long time to fulfill venmos. Okay, I'll cop to that now.

Not not so rich rich woman. Number one hundred and thirty is Sandra Wine winning Survivor Pearl Islands. A huge win. I mean a win that she could have won, she could have easily lost, but um, what's her face? Litl litl eliminated, eliminated once during the game, came back as an outcast that made it to the end. Really one of the first goats, if you will, really easy for Sandra to win, and she was a smart player, smart tratetic player. She's your girl, Sassy Sandra, and she won

again herees versus villains. And this we really include on the list because it was the introduction of Sandra Dias Twine into the franchise up Survivor. But it was that Lil eliminated. It was that Little chose Santa to go to the top two and little eliminated fair play Johnny fair Play. And so at that point Sandra was like, I've got this. She really took her moment there. Number one is the actress Regina King and everything and everything

she's in Watchman. If Bill Street could talk, never forget Miss Congeniality, to never forget Blonde, to a sequel Queen two to seven, never forget all the American crimes, I ever forget any of it. Jerry mc wire, Jerry McGuire, and we got to say we also met Regina King one, Yes, we did. Wasn't she the coolest person, coolest, best dressed person, best energy. Yes? And you this is before I Feel

Streak talk came out. You brought it up and she I remember the look on her face when you said the words, and we're so excited that if fiel Stree could talk would come for that to come out. And she lit up and she was like thank you. She the look in her and her eyes was thank you for bringing this up. She was thankful for you. I don't have to reveal that I can remember clear as day that it was you who brought up if Bill Streak and I brought up seven seconds. I did not

bring up a Filtre. Did you brought up both? No, I didn't know what it feel streeld Talk was at that time. You said that she had a new piece by James Baldwin that she was working. I gave you. I said, you have a new a movie based on a James Baldwin book, James Baldwin story. And then you said if fiel Street could talk, that is I probably did say that, but I want to give you credit

to it because you did bring up that. But the thing is we actually recalled both things that she had won an award for because I said seven seconds and I said, we are putting into the atmosphere that Regina people will win another enmy day. She did, and we talked about if Bill Streak Top when she would later

win an Oscar. So we did not know we were sitting in the midst of an Oscar winner and she had already won to I mean before that, we're you're going to be winning another Emmy, young girl, And she was like, well, thank you, I hope so, and then those hopes turned to reality. We stand, Regina King have from the very beginning. Thank you, Regina. Let's move on to number one. Another actress Alison Williams eating the cereal

and get Out a huge scene. This scene really kind of shot her forward in my eyes as you know, someone to watch. Because we only knew her from Girls playing More any we were like, what's she all about? That she wasn't get out and the movie get Out does not work without that performance. We should say it was fun the way she ate that cereal and the cereal coming right after. You think the moment up until that point is when she's freaking out and then she

has the car keys. She can't find the car keys, and then she has them and then her expression changes. But the moment is actually seeing the pictures of her with her former boyfriends who have been killed, eating the cheerio separately from the milk. Yes, an absolute queen of a scene. Queen of number is our interview and as

subsequent feud. This was a low moment for us when we had what we thought was a really good interview with Tracy Morgan at Vulture Press and it went viral because he made some mess out of the Tiffany Hattrish

of it all. You can go back and watch the video um And then based on that interview, Julie Chen said that we were rude for asking him about Tiffany Hattrich, which is almost like her saying that every time she's interviewed someone that she's never asked about a code star, which I defy Trulie Chen, and I say that is

not true. And Julie Chen, when you lost your job in disgrace, we did not feel bad about it because you came for us in a moment a very bad sting in journalism, and we don't we don't feel bad. And Julie Chen, I mean, you're you're an apologist for a lot of terrible people. Let's just say that on the record. Let's just say that on the record. Honey. Let's keep going. Those big brother checks are keeping you

warm anyway one is. And doubt saying Hulu, who could forget when and Down won an Emmy and said, Hulu, I haven't forgotten. Let's move on. When Game of Thrones could make dragons but not photoshop out a Starbucks cup, I mean there's not there's nothing that hasn't been said about the Starbucks cup. No Game of Thrones references are on this list. Just the fact that a Game of

Thrones let a Starbucks cup sneak in there. I famously think it was on purpose because I have sat in editing rooms and to think that no one would catch that cup from shooting to editing to pop bushing is literally insane. I don't believe it, and I think they were trifling with us. That's that's a conspiracy. MAT's a truther.

Let's keep going American America for in Sisterhood of the Traveling. This, of course, is when she threw the first brick at Bradley Wufford's house, which is something that we've covered before her. We love it, number one, Matt and on the View, we were famously on the View. We went to the View to go see Kelly Clarkson be on the View, and then they producers came out of to the audience and said, we're going to be surprising Kelly's number one fan.

People who had given us tickets were well aware of that. I was in the audience. I thought they met me.

Turns out they met someone else who allegedly Land who had lost like ninety pounds while listening to Kelly's music, and then he got free tickets to Kelly Clarkson's concert, which was devastating to hear about However, the real gag was when we were on Screw Yes, and you saw me being a little overcorrecting in my support for this boy who would just want tickets to this Kelly Clarkson show, and that Matt had this abject horror on his face that he had to watch someone else get there Kelly

Clarkson fantasy fulfilled, And um, let's just say it didn't say well with me. I'm sorry, it did not say well with me. Number One Sutton Foster tap dancing and Anything Goes. She is an amazing talent, that Sutton, an amazing talent, that Sutton who has sung at so many Kennedy Center honors. We love her something. I mean when she tap danced and Anything Goes. On the Tony Awards, you said, how could you give it to anyone else? And we did and we didn't. She won that one.

But I will say that I did see her in the musical Drowsy Chaperone, and she has a number called show Off and Then and I watched that at a young age and I said, she cannot lose the Tony and she did. So these Tony Awards are not a sure thing, no matter how well turn a performance that's true. That's true. Let's keep going to number one, KFC releasing

the double Down. What is this poem? This is this is the KFC sand which where the two buns were chicken patties fried chicken patties, and it caused a big stir And I think we're still dealing with ramifications today fast food culture that we have to say, and honestly that McDonald's released them. Griddle did not make it, but KFC releasing the double Down did make it and make you understand. We're going to get a lot of sort of hate mail about this from our McDonald's queens and kings,

but you know, please sit down. We are the culture where the culture now. The next is one and twenty Sherry Shepherd not knowing if the Earth is flat, you know, famously she was confronted on the view by saying, do you think the earth is flat? Will She said, I don't know. I wouldn't I would want to know how to feed my children. She said that something to that effect.

She definitely redirected and she said, I may not know if the Earth is flat, but I am a good person, which is, you know, certainly a way to get her I actually respect that it's fire that Roger's school. If I don't know my words, but I do know my heart. I actually have a picture of Sherry Shepherd up in my personal museum. That's great. Saint Sherry. We call her especially a rule of culture. Number ninety s Sherry. We

call her. Number is Jennifer Lawrence gay rights. No. Jennifer Lawrence has said a lot of things in her day, but when she said gay rights, that was culture. And now all the girls are trying to say gay rights with her right. Number one D eighteen Pon wasted accepting a Golden Globe. This is when she brought the cookies up off the table and handed out cookies on her way up to the Golden Globe. She could tell she was absolutely black out. But she won for her performance

as cookie Lion, and she deserved that one absolutely. Number one seventeen is half the dress. Who could forget us arguing all about the dress. I was with you Times Square at a at a like a bodega buffet, and you thought it was black and blue, and I thought it was white and golden. I thought it was white and gold You were right, I was wrong, And it was really crazy to have an argument about that and it was and for me to be right. Number one hundred sixteen on our rule of top two hundred moments

in culture history is the passing of the men. This gave women the right to vote and think it was about time and it was the beginning of us a voting rights reform. And thank you Susan B. Anthony for making this happen, and all the suffragets really thank you, which is Rosie and Elizabeth on the view. This beats out the passing of the nineteenth Amendment. When Rosie and Elizabeth fought on the view, this was a moment a culture. They went to that fabulous split screen and really they

have not reconciled over this poem. And when they went to the split screen, you get see and you come into on this when Rosie, like Rosie, saw that they were going to the split screen, or was it Elizabeth who thought that they were going to It was Rosie who saw it and called it out wow, And that's when she quit. She said, I can't be having this. Someone who has moral clarity and and and and decisions

based on that clarity. Huge. Yeah, Now we have number one hundred fourteen carry voiceover, and I had to wonder, is there more of an influential voiceover performance than this? I had to wonder that I had to wonder. I don't think there is. I would say this brought back to the voiceover as a worthy method of narration. Do you think that there would be an a Meredith Gray voice of were convention in Gray's Anatomy without sex in

the City, Carry Bradshaw. I think that that's a really interesting question, and I would say no. I would say Carry Bradshaw and Sara Jessica Parker's performance as Carrie Bradshaw revolutionized, revitalized, and resurrected the voice over as a narrative device that we now have in Gray's Anatomy, which has a lead character named Meredith Gray. Let's keep going. This is number one. Lisa Lisa Coudro invented post It's monologue and Roman Michelle Wow.

I mean when she talks about how she like used a specific kind of glue epoxy, you have to wonder did Lisa Coudo draw on her experience as a chemistry major at Vassar at Vassar and working for her father in some biotech company. Have you ever met Lisa Kudro. I have not met Have you met Lissa Coudro Never? When you do meet her, though, you should tell her that you majored in chemistry like her. I would love to.

I mean, she's she's the best there is. I mean, we watched the Comeback season two the other the other day, like we watched the whole series, and it was just so unbelievable. Started all started all oh, you know, Sex in the City started it all in a different way, of course. Lea Lela Durham. I think it's Lena Dunham.

That's what I said, Lena number one t when Thelma and Louise drove over the cliff huge, This was so huge, and that thunderbird went over that cliff, and that iconic soundtrack and those incredible performances of those two women Gina Davis and Susan Sarandon both nominated for Oscars in that film.

A film that should be watched, watched absolutely, and a polarizing ending, but one that we stand by that it's an iconic ending because if this world couldn't handle them, this world didn't deserve them on that freeze frame ic iconic, Let's keep going one Dred eleven. Julia Roberts is huge mouth. You can hang a coat hanger in that mouth. Mouth, and that mouth was a hundred million wattage of smile and it got her all the roles in the early nineties,

Mystic Pizza on Pretty Woman still Magnolia's woolf. The we're just saying the mouth was a big part of the appeal because that smile was amazing and you saw, you saw it all, and she could a moute through that math like no other. She's a star. I see, let's blast through these next ten and and cut to a break.

What what do you say? I think that we are going to have to just have this be one episode and we're going to have to do a second episode, which is part two, I think, because there's just there's just no way this is gonna be too long. And I'm actually saying it on the mic to our producers that this is gonna have to be a two partner because I don't know how we thought we were going to get through two hundred moments of culture. It's it's the only it was the only option when it was

the only option we had. It had to be two hundred, had we had it. We couldn't gloss over these moments. No, but we're gonna get through these next ten or next what is it next? Next ten, and then we're going to take a break, um, and we're gonna come back with another whole episode, which is the top one hundred moments of culture because we have done two hundred episodes of Last Cultures this, I mean, the only way to honor that sort of back hat aologue is with two moments.

And I'm so happy we stopped everything to say that discovering in this moment, like we have discovered so much that will be doing two episodes of this because it's not logistically feasible to continue. Number one D ten lou Post light blue oscars dress a k A. The moment when she won her oscar firsts a slave and she had that light periwinkle blue dress. Zach Posing. I want to say, honestly, I want to say Zach Posing all the time, because you know that Zach Poson is my

celebrity crush and he's DM you made that up. I kind of, for some reason thought that he that you would correspondence. Oh my god, I love Zach pos and I think he's so hot. But anyway, um, if it wasn't him that made this dress, and then god bless who did? God bless who did at this moment the way it moved as she hit center stage, Oh my god, I mean just like Cinderella, that like a fairy tale. It looked so incredible on her, and she is a fashion icon and we need to say it loud and proud.

Let's keep going. Let's keep going. One or nine the o C Season one. Oh my gosh, who could forget Ryan, Marissa Summer and Seth Yes, thank you for naming the four? Who could forget the four? And also never forget Miss Julie Cooper iconic milth Ms Kirston iconic alcoholic and Mr Sandy iconic eyebrows. He's sexy sex You ever watched the sex scene Front American Beauty when he foxs in net Benning and he goes, you're like getting fucked by the king. You like getting funned by the king. Oh my god?

Do you identify with with um with with Mr Gallagher as an eyebrows person? Yes? Yes, I would be interested to see if he was got any Greek in him. I think he's the Greek. Okay's Greek there alright, Greek going um yeah, though he was amazing. Number one eight Elizabeth Banks and Power Rain. She went for it with this one, a true villain Krispy Kream. You loved all the Crispy Cream line readings, and let's do it one too.

Three How you could tell? The line in the script was how, and it came out as just like a sort of exasperated howel Yes, she was going for the Razzie with this one. I think she wanted to show up at the Razzy stage winning. But really she should have been nominated for an Oscar for a no holds barred performance as Rita Repulsa, who is, of course I think canonically Filipino, well, Japanese in the way that all of them were. I mean maybe Philippine, maybe some Pacific islander,

Southeast Asian. Well, she's Elizabeth Banks. Now, she's Elizabeth Banks. Now let's keep going. Okay, this is number one hundred and seven. This is Whitney Houston when she went and who could forget when the drum made that sound and she unleashed the note, you will never forget where you were when you saw that. I'll never forget that, and you know famously this was a song written and first performed by Dolly Parton, who could have known that it

would be done? So I kindly by Whitney, the Houston, the Voice, the Voice, Let's keep going to the drums and Lose my Breath by Destiny's Child of course, But wow, percussion, fish, Oh my god, percussion for your absolute nerves and it just lights up a spark in you, doesn't it? It really does. And I knew this was going to be a huge hit when I first heard it. I had a moment of hope when Lose my Breath came out

and was like, they're back together. Well they they've never broken up, I know, but like you know, dangerously in love. It was the moment and everyone's like, Beyonce, that's the moment, and I remember loving that damn album. But then kind of secretly morning Destiny's Child does mean? Does this mean Siny's Child is over? But then Lose my Breath came out and Destiny Fulfield came out, and I was like,

all hope is not lost. Not only did Destiny of the Field come out, I believe it is their best work. I believe it's their best album as a trio. Kelly Roland has gone on record to say that it is her favorite. It's like like like they asked you, like,

what's your favorite Destiny's Child song? And she says, every song off of Destiny's Destiny I mean, never forget, Girl, Girl, never forget, If never forget, I mean cater to you, to you, t shirt sleep, Yes, come on, I mean and also their iconic Bolt which was not on the album, but was stand Up for Love, Stand Up for Love. And then they did a cover of Emotions by the Beg's Well that was on an earlier album, but yes, all Emotions was on Survivor. Yes, it was I Accept

Your Apology. UM number one. The baby boom after World War Two. Okay, so, okay boomer. We wouldn't have the phrase okay boomer without, of course, the baby boom. Now, this is a period of time before and after and during the war when men were not spending a lot of time with their wives and someone they did, they got them absolutely pregnant. This you led to a huge surge in births during the time period of fifties. Yes, absolutely,

and it led to it coincided with um. You know, a lot of social programs being put into affecting the United States and economic prosperity, so it all could have worked out when it helped assert the US's global dominance. Yes, and um, we should say, um, I am ya teacher, and I knew this knowledge of um World War two, and I should be celebrated. I not put this in, and I think that should be celebrated for putting this in. Number one is the longevity of hang. Talk about longevity.

I think Pank has had one of the most enviable careers in music. I mean once she burst onto the scene with there you Go, look in Pizza Foe just because I lets you go, There you Go, talking about she want me back? Oh my god, I mean so much versatility and what is powerful voice? I mean misunderstood the album, misunderstood the album. I mean raise your glass, So raise your glass if you are wrong, and all the ways iconic freak, pink, iconic freak, iconic absolute freak.

We will never never be anything but loud and nitty gritty, dirty gritty, dirty little freak little freaks, So raise your glass. And also iconic ballad in a family potcher. We look pretty happy. Let's play perdun not like I go Natty. Yes, never forget, never forget number one hundred and three. And you better believe that I watched every single one of her confirmation hearings in the Senate. I mean, she is the Supreme Court justice. Do you know this story? AOC

tells this story. But so during her Senate hearings when she was nominated by Barack Obama, one of our presidents, remember her? Remember her? Some publicists or some like media consultants or media consults are like, you should wear a nude neil polish so that you come off more neutral and more sort of not as like loud and vibrant and sort of like you're not making this impression that you can control. She said, no, she said fuck that. And you see her wearing bright red nail pology. Isn't that?

I love that story iconic. Also, have you seen Knock Down the House? No, I need to see it. Oh my god, there's such that it. Knocked Down the House is amazing. And also it's like, there's so much great stuff going on. Netflix has amazing documentaries. You guys, come on, you gotta give it up. Rule of Culture number nine documentaries, guys. Um. But she in her very first scene talks about she's getting ready, and this is before she's even filed to run,

Like this camera crew followed her from the beginning. It's unbelievable. And she's getting ready and she's like, there's no way to know how you should get ready as a female running for president, because either you're in a full suit or you're in that like drag of light colored shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the elbow. But there's no prototype of how a woman who is a politician running for office looks, and so you have to think

about the way you present yourself. And it was just like she also talks about in the yeah, in the documentary and it's really moving. So and she was our speaker, our speaker at graduation. Yes she was. She spoke in our graduation and was amazing. In the first word she said was this is awesome. Do you remember that? I remember that. And she was like a girl like me from the Bronx speaking to you at Yankees. I mean they made a whole big deal about being at Yankee Stadium.

Our graduation was at Yankee Stadium. Um, okay. So the next one is number one D and two Beanie Baby Culture. Wow. Wow, Um, I mean beanie babies are still going strong. I saw one at the airport on my way into l A. It was a very perilous environment, but the beanie babies

were a grounding force. And also, you know what you can never forget is the fact that, you know, beanie baby culture also was Princess Diana culture because it sort of gave us, you know, the um beanie baby that was most famous, which is the Diana baby, which was the Diana baby. And also never forget we had our peace Bear, yes, and we also had um the dolphins,

the dolphins. Many different things contributed to um beanie baby culture and ultimately we were told they would come to be worth a lot of money and that remains to be seen. But speaking of toys that were good for Christmas time, number one and one is Furby a big comeback, I would say, in the meme culture, I'm seeing a lot of furbies. Not surprised to hear that. I mean, there's such crazy, crazy animals. I'll never forget what My uncle got me a Furbye three or four years too late.

And it was like three or four years after the Furby craze, and I was like, oh my God, and then I just had this white furby acting a fool in my closet. I feel actually very bad because even though it was a toy with no soul, it really did a good job of making you feel it did have a soul and feelings because they would be crying, hysteric, randomly begging for attention in the middle of the night. Oh honey, terrible. So fur actually may have been scarring culture.

I think the scarring culture. Matt. We're one hundred and one, We're halfway through the list. What do you think we should so number one hundred? Oh okay, so maybe you're saying maybe we should start with a hundred. I think we start with that, alright. So then literally, I think we've gone through the first one hundred of our We've been two hundred to one hundred and one of our top two hundred moments of culture, and I think that we've done an incredibly We've done an incredible job. We

hope that you agree with this list. You have to agree with the list because it's definitively empirically the list. Um, we're not going to do and I don't think so, honey, Because this this episode is an hour and forty five minutes. But we are going to say we will see you later, and maybe the episode that follow us will be coming a little bit sooner than you think. Yes, we'll have

to talk to the producers. We're gonna have to talk to the producers because we've made a lot of decisions without them and they are very We appreciate their flexibility and their adaptability in this process. That we're doing something that no one's ever done before, which is catalog the top two hundred moments in culture history. No one has ever done this before. And also it's our two hundredth

episode and we're very excited. Also, please remember that we're saying it's our two hundred episode based on my count, which could be wrong. I will accept it as right. I I told you, I looked in your eyes and I said, I trust you. And remember that Bowen has not done account of the episodes, even though I told him, do you want to double check me? And he said, I trust you? So I really I I put it to the viewers to count the episodes and tell me if I'm wrong, but also deeply no that I don't care.

And that's not the point. The point is to celebrate this landmark achievement for the pod and recount the episodes and moments of culture that are really meaningful. We're so drunk um and I mean, this is the most time I've had in months. But stay tuned for the remaining one hundred top moments in culture history. You're not gonna want to miss any of these. There's plenty to cover. And number one, I'd want to say, definitively, you can you can? You can? You know push back on the
