Look man, oh I see you?
0:02
Why why oh one? Look over there?
0:05
How is that culture? Yes? Goodness
0:10
ding lost culture race is calling
0:13
and I've already had it with Bow and I've had it
0:15
a copa. I've had it with him
0:17
today. Why are
0:19
you forgetting wires? I normally
0:22
I'm on top of my wires and my chords.
0:24
I don't know, you know what, We don't have to get
0:26
into it everything. There's
0:28
there's a lot of set up and we're doing this in
0:31
a very unusual way already. But
0:33
I T L D R. Boone
0:35
forgot his charger to his computer and now his
0:37
computer is dead as Marilyn
0:39
Monroe, and we can barely
0:41
even do the podcast tonight. We
0:44
had to we had to figure out how
0:46
to use a zoom That's okay, zoom
0:48
interface, we should the zoom interface we're using and
0:50
listen, that's us both growing and changing
0:53
and learning new ways to record, learning new
0:55
ways. And we have to apologize
0:59
to you, the listener, the reader. We
1:02
were a little buzzed. That's
1:04
fine, and that's fine, um,
1:07
thank you for listening to the chaos. That
1:09
was the first part of our two part two hundredth
1:11
episodes Spectacular, where we count
1:14
down the top two hundred culture moments in culture history.
1:16
We Matt made us a cocktail um
1:19
which, in this loose definition is a red
1:21
Bull and vodka. I did. I literally
1:23
kept sort of referring to it as a cocktail.
1:26
It was a Red Bull vodka. But here's
1:28
the tail. I'm yeah. I leaned
1:30
on it for us and we only
1:32
finished about half of those drinks and we were flippy
1:35
FILOPPI yeah loosao.
1:38
I felt. Really you can listen back to it. You
1:40
have the audio. We're slurring through the episode,
1:44
the pacing. We just have to quickly say,
1:46
Matt and I really thought we could count down all two hundred
1:48
things in under two hours. Can you believe
1:50
that that is something that we thought was logistically
1:53
feasible, us saying two hundred things,
1:55
all giving them like some sort of cultural do like
1:57
speaking about them a little bit, and getting to the end. No way,
2:00
No way. This just shows that we have a
2:02
lot to learn about podcasting. We have so
2:04
much to learn, and we thank
2:06
you for being there with us on the
2:08
way to grow, on the way to grow, On the way
2:10
to grow. And if this episode were
2:13
to have a title, it would be called on the
2:15
Way to should we
2:17
call this episode this two part episode um
2:20
two D spectacular? Yes,
2:22
just those two words two hundred spectacular
2:25
part one in part two two? Well? Or
2:27
should we say? And I always feel it's
2:30
good to say in the title what the episode is. So maybe
2:32
it's top two hundred moments of culture spectacular.
2:35
Yes, I like that, or two hundred the
2:37
two hundred colon the two hundred
2:39
greatest moments in culture parentheses
2:42
our two hundred episode. I
2:45
love that, And I really am in no position to
2:47
push back on whatever you propose, I
2:51
I do, I really do. I
2:53
love that. So it's two hundred colon The
2:55
top two hundred moments in culture history. Parentheses
2:58
are two hundred of part
3:01
one, and we have we oh yeah,
3:03
we need the word spectacular in There are two D
3:05
episodes spectacular part one. Should
3:07
it be this in parentheses? Hear
3:10
me out in caps spectacular
3:13
colon two hundred
3:16
colon The top two
3:18
hundred moments in pop culture history
3:21
parentheses are two hundred episode
3:24
Part one, Part one. So the very
3:26
like, it's very like themed to
3:29
the to the number two hundred. The
3:32
double colon is the only thing that's tripping me up.
3:34
It is not done. I think it's spectacular
3:37
colon and then what do you say, m
3:41
dash the top two
3:43
hundred moments in culture history parentheses
3:46
are two hundred spectacular part one
3:48
close parentheses. Okay, yeah, alright,
3:51
that's really good epic. That's like amazing
3:54
movie. It's yes, it
3:57
gives me like Disney Vines where
3:59
it's now the titles are just in word and it's an adjective
4:01
like Tangled Frozen. You know, well, yes, it's
4:03
I feel that when I say it's like a Basil Erman
4:05
movie, I actually immediately understand
4:08
that he's sort of called many of
4:10
his movies by like one word or two words, Rouge
4:12
Australia. What I mean is it has the grand
4:15
of a Bosler movie. It totally it stylistically
4:18
says Basil Erman to me. And that's all I really
4:20
want. Like in Romeo and Juliet, the and is
4:23
plus and that's how you know it's huge and
4:25
that's how that that's his little signature. And mulan
4:27
Rouge has an exclamation point. Yes in
4:30
Australia is in like big white
4:32
letter. It's amazing. It's an amazing
4:34
fun And then, um, what else
4:37
grape Gatsby has Carrie Mulligan Mulligan
4:40
special. I never, I
4:42
never, I never saw it. You know what's unfortunate
4:45
for Carrie Mulligan what she didn't make
4:47
the list? She didn't she did not
4:49
make the list. And you know what's interesting about Carrie
4:51
Mulligan. I sometimes think and feel that
4:54
you used to have as your Twitter
4:56
bio. I am as pretty as
4:58
Carrie Mulligan. Please can firm you
5:00
want to know something? It's still my
5:03
Tinder bio and I'm still
5:06
on Tinder. Isn't that like you're still
5:08
on the very straight tender. I
5:10
would say it's pretty
5:12
gay, is it? Well, I guess
5:14
I just mean like to me, like,
5:17
yeah, it's like it's like through the male
5:19
gaze. It's like very much like a breeding ground
5:21
for like that straight guy who has a picture at
5:23
Machu Pichu. Yes, you know
5:25
what I mean at Machu Pichu
5:28
down Boots. It's actually really culture number
5:30
twenty the gays down
5:33
Boots. Um. You know it's
5:35
funny you get you get all types there. Yeah,
5:37
I would imagin types of queers. International.
5:40
Really it's really an international site. Um.
5:43
And speaking of international
5:46
international, we
5:49
have for you a list not
5:51
just of the top one hundred
5:54
best things in pop culture. But it's two
5:56
hundred because this is famously as you
5:58
may have in for our two
6:01
episode or a second part of what
6:03
is a two episode spectacular celebration.
6:06
And today what do we have today?
6:09
We have the top one moments in culture
6:11
history. So we we finished our
6:13
first half of this. Number one oh one
6:16
was, of course Furbies. Yeah, Furbies.
6:18
We touched on how furbies were a real toy
6:20
that sort of stormed the moment and
6:23
definitely took center stage. And those girls
6:25
were absolutely in stores, but
6:27
then they were as soon as they were in, they were gone
6:29
because they were selling like hotcakes.
6:34
And we tease
6:36
this at the end of the last episode, the last
6:38
the first half of this, we said, number one is
6:41
going to blow your socks off, and you will have no choice but
6:44
to agree No. Number one is culture
6:46
and you're going to have to agree on that one. You're gonna have
6:48
to concur on that one. You're gonna have
6:50
to um not in
6:53
approval on that one. Yes, you're
6:55
gonna have to coastline and that one. Yeah,
6:57
And so what do you say we get keep going
6:59
with our top one hundred. This
7:01
is unbelievable. I can't believe this unbelievable
7:04
Top one hundred moments of culture. Yes,
7:07
yes, okay, Matt, let's kick it off with number
7:09
one. Alright, Number one hundred is
7:12
Tia and Tamara Maori.
7:14
We all remember these twins, sister sisters,
7:17
the sister sisters themselves.
7:19
I got my own mind, do my own
7:21
stuff in my own time. Oh come on. And
7:24
also, not only were Tia and Tamara amazing,
7:26
but this also brought to us the Harry
7:29
Harry who you know, some people they knew
7:31
prior to this. This is really the culture that influenced
7:34
her. Us to Jack. Oh yes,
7:36
I mean Jack. You got to see
7:38
her full glory and she built
7:41
up the goodwill and her time, and sister
7:43
sister, I feel like for our generation, for us,
7:45
you know, stupid millennials. But now we
7:47
get to follow her on Twitter and see all of her tweets
7:50
and they're so funny. And but you think you can textualize
7:52
that against Jack Harry on sister sister,
7:55
I feel that, And you know, actually, what I'm
7:57
realizing is that Tia and Tamara are number one
7:59
hundred and culture. Really, Jack Harry actually
8:01
deserves her spot here. So we're actually gonna call it
8:03
this rule number one hundred sister
8:06
sister, moment moment,
8:08
sorry, not rule. This is famously something else moment
8:11
number one sister, Sister,
8:13
It's not just and tomorrow, although we love tomorrow
8:15
on the road to marry on the rail. Alright, So this
8:18
is an example of us taking too long on
8:20
one item of culture and we have to keep going.
8:23
So Number bowen is Briefe
8:26
by Taylor Swift amazing
8:28
breath Now, can you elaborate on what makes the
8:30
song so amazing? Well, this song is amazing because
8:32
it's really it's just guitar. There might
8:34
be some percussion on it, but it's her. It's a duet
8:37
with Colby Kela on the beautiful
8:39
song about breaking
8:41
up, growing from the breakup,
8:43
growing from separation. It's a gorgeous song. I really
8:45
love it from Fearless and from Fearless arguably
8:48
her best album. Well that's
8:50
an argument that we could have, but
8:52
you know, it's her one of two albums that is one best album
8:55
at best at boubum. The Grammys to
8:57
sort of assign value on award
9:00
is very kind of capitalist of you. Anyway,
9:03
moving on to number it is of course
9:05
Breathe too, am by An
9:07
analyx now if I might, I just
9:09
didn't take the floor here. This song was
9:12
good before the Code Black episode
9:14
of Grey's Anatomy, and then it became culture
9:16
because of the Code Black episode of Grey's Anatomy.
9:19
Thank you very much. When Mr
9:21
Kyle Chandler first said, exploded
9:24
ass all over that hospital,
9:27
which at the time was called Seattle Grace has
9:29
now got other names. But
9:31
honey, when Miss Meredith Gray had
9:34
to fly all the way back because of the explosion
9:36
of Miss Chandler, holy hell. And
9:38
you know the soundtrack of that moment
9:40
was an analyc singing
9:43
breath Breathe, just
9:46
breathe amazing.
9:49
Okay, Matt's what's number number
9:53
is? Of course Breathe by Faith
9:55
Hill. I mean, incredible
9:57
song, the number one Breathe. It's
10:00
it edged out in and now like and Taylor
10:02
Swift by a Hair.
10:04
I would say this song Breathe
10:07
is It's really iconic because
10:09
it's got that sort of thing a song
10:11
does where it starts with the same lyric as it ends with.
10:14
If you gets me that
10:21
the course is explosive. It's my favorite kind
10:23
of country song where she just lets
10:25
it go in there. Hard song to
10:27
sing secretly, hard song to because of the
10:29
suppossed that
10:32
part. It's like a transition into your head voice
10:34
from like a belt. Also not for nothing, but Faith
10:36
Hill epic in that video which she's in the dress kind
10:38
of dancing around the like, um, what's
10:41
it like? The like is it a field? It's
10:43
not a field, it's like a It's like, um,
10:46
what the hell is that's? It's
10:48
like a stone guard a stone field? Is
10:51
that what they? I don't know, but miss
10:53
faith Hill she was. She knew
10:55
because it was on her call sheet, all right, and
10:58
I don't know. Was it the top Breathe or Breathe
11:03
by Michelle Branch and one
11:05
and only ron Com movie trailer song.
11:09
It's unfortunately the best brief. We we spoke too
11:11
soon. If I just bread fill
11:15
the space between, oh know,
11:18
everything is all right? Wow.
11:22
Hotel Paper a huge record. She
11:24
had many huge records, such as The Spirit Room,
11:26
such as you know Hotel
11:28
Paper. Hotel Paper was a room for squares her or
11:30
was that John May the
11:32
male Michelle Brand? I get people with guitars
11:35
mixed up. Um, but yes, she was iconic,
11:37
and we just really quickly talk about Michelle Branch wrote
11:40
The Spirit Room when she was seventeen, like come
11:42
on, Billie Eilish, come on Lord vibes, come
11:45
on Lord vibe, come on, Lord Mind, come
11:47
on, Lord Mind. Thank you. I've mind
11:49
more like Lord Mind, which you need
11:51
to write an amazing I'll met seventeen Michelle
11:53
Branch breathe one amazing song.
11:56
Another song where you just belt
11:58
and then you gotta pull back. Oh, is it incredible?
12:00
And also we don't hear enough covers of this. Kelly
12:03
Clarkson, I'm looking at you, Kelly Oki
12:06
all right, and so we're moving on to number ninety five.
12:08
Talked about an amazing young woman who had an impact
12:10
on the culture. It's Taylor Momson
12:13
Ingrinch. Oh, she was the most amazing
12:15
Cindy Lou. And to think of what
12:17
you are doing when you are assigned the role
12:19
of Cindy Lhu, an iconic woman in culture,
12:22
and to bring her to the screen and do her just
12:24
justice. I mean, I'm giving a standing
12:26
ovation. I'm giving a standing ovation. Speaking of Hayte
12:28
the Hill, she ended up singing a faith Hill
12:30
song where she Christmas written by Ms.
12:32
Mariah, which Matt Rodgers
12:35
wastes no time in teaching
12:38
the children about that fact. I always teach
12:40
the kids that whenever they come to one of
12:42
my performances, I make sure to tell them. You know, Mariah
12:45
Carey actually she wrote where
12:47
are You Christmas? And Faith Hill sang it, and then
12:49
Taylor Momson, I'm sorry, but acted
12:52
it because she acted the hell out
12:54
of this role. She acted
12:56
the hell out of this role. When Cindy l who is supposed
12:58
to be sad, you are sad. And then she
13:00
grew up to play a mean teenager in
13:03
Gossip Girl. Wow, she
13:05
really she was a versatile
13:07
one. And then of course she was in the band pretty
13:10
Reckless, Pretty Reckless. Never forget
13:12
a Perez Hilton favorite. Oh my god,
13:15
that two thou seven two eight, What a
13:17
time. It was Taylor Momson's peak
13:19
and we sent her a lot of Now, speaking
13:21
of this film, number ninety four is
13:23
where are You Christmas? From the film which
13:26
we have discussed, which we have discussed, well,
13:28
we should actually make the distinction. Grinch is the title
13:30
of the animated version of it. It's
13:33
my title, It's Matts title. But the full title
13:35
of the Jim Carey Classic, Jim
13:37
Carrey, Christine Baranski Classic, Taylor Momson
13:39
classic is how the grin stool Christmas, right,
13:42
I just shortened it from my own purposes to um.
13:45
But this song is amazing.
13:47
I mean, you know, it's about a young girl
13:49
sort of confronting the fact that as she gets
13:51
older, the meaning of Christmas changes,
13:54
and sort of as a comparison to life
13:57
and how as you get older, you know things,
13:59
they don't lose their meaning, but they change their meaning.
14:01
And it's about the unknown and what's going to
14:04
happen as you grow older. If Christmas changes, will
14:06
I change to? What else will change? A beautiful
14:08
song, a beautiful sentiment, and only the number
14:10
one songwriter Mariah Carey could
14:12
have written it. Absolutely, And you know it's a beautiful,
14:14
gorgeous lyric. What my life is changing,
14:17
I'm rearranging, rearranging
14:19
amazing. You see it, Yeah, you
14:21
see it? Thank you. Now let's go to ninety
14:24
three. Number ninety three is Jim
14:26
Carrey as Grinch and the film
14:28
Grinch. This performance
14:31
was culture Christmas, culture christ this culture.
14:33
He was giving you everything. He was giving you slapstick,
14:36
he was giving you some voice comedy.
14:38
Absolutely, he was giving you hours in the makeup
14:41
chair, painful hours in the makeup chair. And
14:43
I'm sorry, but if Meryl Streep is going to
14:45
get nominated for as many Oscars as she has.
14:47
Where is Jim Carrey's nomination for Grinch?
14:50
And I'm being sort of you
14:52
know, your come on, you know, silly
14:54
about this, but also in a real way,
14:56
where is even one Oscar
14:59
nomination for Jim are and his many
15:01
solid performance sexism in Hollywood?
15:03
I think it's sexism towards green
15:06
Bean esque comedic actors,
15:08
and it has to stop right now, say
15:10
it's sexism towards white male actors.
15:12
It's sexism towards white male actors. To have Jim
15:14
Carrey go nomination list. He deserved
15:17
a nomination for a tune of Sunshine. I want to say
15:19
he deserved nominations for the following films Eternal
15:22
Sunshine, The Seminal
15:24
Grin, the Mask,
15:27
No Liar, Liar, Okay,
15:31
Truman, Yes he
15:33
should have at least four Thank you queen okay
15:36
for Truman Show, for the queers to love Truman
15:38
Show. That's how you know it's a real work,
15:41
real piece of work. This was a real work.
15:44
Now we have the next
15:46
one here, and this is one of my favorite rules
15:48
of all. Number ninety two, The birth
15:50
of Yang Important moment
15:54
this. I wanted to take this moment off the left, and
15:56
I said, you have to leave it on because the birth
15:58
of bowen Yang was a moment in culture.
16:01
We would not have both. Can everyone
16:04
that's listening right now understand you
16:06
you don't the fact that you are given bo
16:09
Yang and you have to understand
16:11
that and stop being so stupid because
16:14
the bow and Yang is a gift in this world and
16:16
he has come to this amazing place and
16:18
he's going very far, and the birth of
16:20
bow and Yang is a moment in culture. And
16:22
you sitting at home understand that your
16:25
life would be completely different without and you would be listening
16:27
to this right now. No, you would be listening
16:29
to this. And you all know that Matt Rodgers
16:31
is the joy is
16:33
not my son. And all this, especially
16:36
when it comes to this post, this brings us culture
16:39
number. Rule of culture number. That
16:41
don't impress me much. What
16:44
was this? This was a Shia Twains I'm not I'm
16:46
so sorry, no Twain song. I got
16:48
her visually mixed up with faith um
16:50
and I'm so sorry. This also kind of took This video
16:52
also took place kind of like in the desert. Yes,
16:55
Trug remember and
16:58
the Leopard, but I mean Shnaia. We're
17:01
not talking about Shania now, because Shania now
17:03
is a little is a little wild. But
17:05
we're talking about the song that don't impress them me much,
17:07
or the moment that don't impress them You'll notice that I
17:09
wrote here that don't impress much. I
17:11
didn't say a song. I didn't necessary necessarily
17:14
say a video. I said that don't impress
17:16
me much. And that's because that
17:18
don't impress on me much. I believe it's
17:20
a movement beyond just the
17:22
song I think that don't impress them me much became
17:25
something like I don't think so, honey. You
17:27
know it's actually rot a culture Number thirteen
17:30
that don't impress on me much is the
17:32
original I don't think so,
17:34
honey. And it's such an
17:36
amazing time to announce bone
17:38
and I will be doing a show called that don't
17:40
impress on Me much, and it
17:42
will not happen. We're not doing it. We're not doing
17:45
especially, not a thing. Um.
17:47
I gotta say. The reason I love
17:49
that don't impress them me much is it's
17:51
an answer. So many times in life
17:53
people are put like putting forth questions
17:56
yes, and it puts the onus on you to
17:58
come up with the answer. But the question is
18:01
so your Brad Pitt and the answer that
18:03
don't impress me, and
18:05
it's it actually is more about It says
18:07
more about you than it does
18:09
about the other person. Because this other person could
18:12
be doing something impressive. It just don't impressive.
18:15
And so honestly, whenever
18:18
I see anyone stepping up to me and
18:20
trying to give me grief, I
18:23
just say, I look at them in the eyes, I
18:25
maybe pat them on the shoulder, and I say that
18:28
don't impress them. And
18:30
you should try it at home. You try
18:32
it next time your parents are getting at you. Try
18:35
it next time your boyfriend hasn't cleaned the dishes,
18:37
or maybe if he does clean the dishes, just say
18:39
that don't impress on me much. It's
18:42
the original. I don't think it is.
18:44
Move on to number ninety, which is Obama
18:47
election. Who could down?
18:49
Who could forget? But there were two, right, well,
18:51
there was two Obama elections. And I think
18:53
that that this moment a moment
18:55
of culture. Number ninety Obama election is
18:58
when you really understand
19:01
his election as as less
19:03
of a moment and as a singular
19:05
cultural shift and event I see
19:07
you know what I mean. I just feel that Barack Obama
19:10
is an amazing man and culture and
19:12
he had to be on the list. You have to be on the list.
19:14
So when you say Obama Obama election,
19:17
you mean the election and re
19:19
election of Obama. Yes, the election
19:21
into the cultural consciousness of Obama.
19:24
Yes. Um, what I'm really saying is
19:26
the two election that I'm talking about,
19:28
the moment when he got I mean, you
19:31
can't beat that. No. Do you remember where you
19:33
were? I was in the East Village. I
19:36
remember people in New York City running
19:38
out into the streets cheering, and I was like, this
19:40
is beautiful. And I had just moved there, like
19:42
you. I'm as an Union Square and
19:45
I remember being so elated
19:47
that he was elected. And I remember running down the halls
19:50
and it was n y U. So everyone was heading to
19:52
Union Square in Square and there were
19:54
these like every other like
19:58
dorm room. There was like one conservative
20:01
kid like sitting in his bedroom like crying,
20:03
like because his parents had obviously scared
20:05
the daylights out of him that like if Obama got elected,
20:07
they were gonna lose other money or whatever. Well,
20:10
it's wonderful that it was so
20:12
funny the pendulum swung the other way in such
20:14
a crazy destructive manner.
20:18
No, eight years later, Well, here's
20:20
the thing. If you remember how good you felt
20:22
when that happened, put that energy towards
20:24
November. Biden
20:28
to the White House. Joe, we
20:31
love Joe Biden, I said. I said
20:33
to myself. I was like, you know what words I don't want to hear
20:35
anymore. We need to restore the soul of
20:37
America. I'm like, this is the most
20:40
garbage, like nothing of
20:42
a like placation I've ever
20:44
heard. This is a battle for the soul of America.
20:47
But which is another way of saying to
20:49
me that like, uh, this is
20:51
not our country, right that, like anytime
20:53
something terrible happens when
20:55
it comes to Trump and or racism
20:58
or both, it's like this isn't our kind. It's like,
21:00
no, this is our country. And you're saying that we're
21:02
restoring the soul of America is like kind
21:05
of not to use this word. It
21:07
is like that's a similar type of gas line where
21:09
you're like this, this is not the America. I know that
21:11
we're better than this. It's like maybe we're not. Like,
21:14
first of all, let's break it down into three
21:16
parts, right, restore. The
21:18
word restore means to return to or
21:20
like sort of like uh,
21:23
rebuild in a similar fashion to what we've
21:25
experienced. So
21:27
that to me is saying we'd
21:30
like to return to something. And I think
21:32
we've been establishing in the past couple of years
21:34
that America is not something to be returned
21:36
to, it's something to progress into.
21:39
But okay, so then when you start restore
21:41
the soul, the soul to me is a dog whistle
21:44
because it's like a little bit slightly
21:47
religious imagery. And also it
21:49
says something about like the soul, like
21:51
the ancestor like within. Like again,
21:53
it's this like kind of bullshit that reverts back
21:55
to a prior and again,
21:57
this is not what American needs to do. American needs to
22:00
grass and move forward. And then you say of America,
22:02
which gives people this like false sense of duty. So
22:04
really in every single part of that
22:07
slogan is bullshit.
22:10
And um anyway, so we
22:12
love Joe, Thank you Joe Biden
22:15
free um and anyway,
22:18
So anyway, yes, number ninety is the Obama election.
22:21
I just want to say a point. I really quickly just we blasted
22:23
through the Grinch series, the Grine
22:25
trio. Christie Branski did not make the list.
22:27
She did not make the list. She she
22:33
never looked hot. Her hottest actress in Hollywood at the
22:35
time. I believe she was on Maxim,
22:38
So I believe she was on Maxim, g Q, Vogue,
22:40
all of it. She was. She had the hottest woman titles
22:43
um, but she did not make the list. Who
22:45
did make the list is number eighty nine. This
22:47
is when Nick Jones got
22:50
adult hot. Remember this,
22:52
I remember that's talking about this. When was adult hot for you?
22:54
I think it was around the time when
22:57
he was releasing the song Jealous. It
22:59
was a realization for me that not
23:01
only was Nick jonas a man now,
23:04
but he was a hot man and I, unfortunately
23:07
was powerless to whatever was going on. And
23:09
it's that kind of thing where it's like, what he
23:12
really was a kid one day and then was
23:14
not the next, and
23:16
it was it was it was really like a
23:19
quantum leap. There was no transition,
23:21
yeah, because it's jarring, right. It's sort of like
23:23
one minute he's like a cute kid in the
23:26
band, and then it turned you turn around
23:28
and he's like not only like sort
23:31
of a sex object, but like explicitly
23:33
sexual and performing sort of
23:36
his own sexuality for gay men
23:38
in a way, which is like it
23:41
was such an assault, but one that I welcomed.
23:44
I I welcomed it. Two, there
23:46
was a very interesting discourse around when
23:48
there was a photo of him on some yacht wearing
23:51
short swim trunks and like looking sort
23:53
of thick in the thighs and everyone saying daddy,
23:55
daddy, daddy, and everyone just being like,
23:57
wait a minute, this is not like thick, like
23:59
or people calling thick and people calling him daddy.
24:01
So it's like we're not there
24:04
quite yet, and we're
24:07
and I think that's when the term
24:09
thick got a little bit, you know, common
24:11
deer. Let's say, So, so you think
24:13
he wasn't actually thick and people were calling him
24:15
thick? Yeah, I gotta say, that's that's
24:17
my thought. I think in that picture he
24:20
what happened was he was wearing a two small bathing
24:23
and he did look like a little love handily.
24:26
It's a it's an optical illusion, yes, in
24:28
a way that I will say, understanding
24:30
that the bathing suit was too small turned me
24:32
on in a way I can't even describe.
24:35
We're not saying that it wouldn't turn anybody on it
24:37
was appropriating the word thick. I didn't say
24:39
that. I didn't say the word appropriate. It's just
24:42
um, then what are you trying? The word got
24:44
started to get moneyed a little. I see, I see.
24:46
So you're saying, save thick for thick, save thick
24:49
for thick. Okay, I understand. Regardless
24:51
of Nick jonas Um made the list, made
24:53
the list. He made the list here and let's go to number
24:55
eight eight. This this was a moment culture.
24:58
This is the hairstyle of the
25:00
Rachel. Huge moment.
25:02
I mean, women everywhere were so taken
25:05
by Jennifer Anderson as Rachel and her hairstyle
25:07
that they said, I want to get the Rachel. I
25:09
have a question for you, gone, did
25:11
the Rachel have to exist in order for the Karen
25:14
haircut to exist? You know the Karen
25:16
haircut. It's very ka sort of like yeah, that kiss
25:19
and sort of like who called it like like a waterfall
25:21
in the front and scissors in the back? Yes, um
25:24
that I think Sudy said that one time. She said that
25:27
that hairstyles like a waterfall in the front, like a
25:29
front bank that's like a cascade, and knives
25:31
in the back like dangerous porcafine
25:33
back. I don't think
25:35
that one had to walk so the other
25:38
could run. Um, but I do think
25:40
that they occupy a similar space
25:42
where they're so iconic they
25:44
earn a name, and so I think they're iconic
25:47
sisters. But the Rachel
25:49
was at a moment and here's the thing, does
25:52
the Karen still sort of exist? I
25:54
feel like the symbol for like like in
25:57
names when someone is being a Karen, or
25:59
when it's like like you have Patrick from SpongeBob
26:02
acting a Karen
26:04
and they put on the keke
26:06
Oslin here on Patrick. Yes they do. Yeah, Okay,
26:08
so that's actually really interesting. Um.
26:10
I feel my thing is like they're both asymmetrical.
26:13
Rachel and the Karen are both asymmetrical, and
26:16
they're both like bad and they're both
26:18
they're both wild and they both
26:20
got the highlights, and it's just their similarities.
26:22
It's a really really do share a family.
26:25
And now I am fully laughing thinking about the
26:27
Karen hairstyle and how really
26:29
stupid it is. I had an art teacher
26:31
who had that and it was just like, do
26:34
you think No, I'm not gonna say anything crazy.
26:37
I'm just saying it's like it's almost like
26:39
someone who is toying
26:41
with our sexuality a little bit. It's like sort
26:44
of like putting on a hairstyle that's
26:46
like audacious. Listen, you
26:48
can make the argument that to have
26:50
a Kiren is to queer hairstyle a little
26:53
bit. It definitely is something. It's
26:55
queering hair in a way you wouldn't
26:57
get that if you weren't, if
26:59
you weren't by nature a little queer, and
27:01
that you wanted to try out weird things,
27:04
you know. Bell Hooks has described queerness
27:06
as wanting to try out weird things,
27:09
to try out weird things, and that
27:11
is what the Karen embodies and
27:13
what There's a difference between having the Karen hair
27:16
and being a Karen and behind we should
27:19
Yes, and Karen's
27:21
come in all shapes and sizes and genders,
27:23
but karen haircut
27:26
is very specific. Yeah, and it is a little
27:28
queer, I would agree. And I also think it's
27:30
actually really our number eighty seven,
27:33
which is describing things
27:35
as cool. Now, I
27:37
have always thought about
27:39
this, Yes, where did cool come
27:41
from? And when did it start? I wonder did they were they
27:43
sing in the seventies, sixties, fifties, Where
27:46
did but do you remember
27:48
where you were when you learned the word cool and what I
27:50
meant. I think that honestly, it's
27:52
one of those words. It kind of cool kind
27:54
of reminds me of like the word sucks, where it's
27:56
like I knew I wasn't supposed to use it until it was a certain
27:59
age, like you weren't supposed to use no. I
28:01
think that I was, But it's like it kind of reminds
28:03
me of that same thing where it's like I knew I
28:05
was. I knew I had like my
28:08
own opinions
28:10
on the world when I was able to be like, I think
28:12
that's cool. Like when I could describe
28:14
something that I deemed to
28:17
my taste as cool, I was like, Wow,
28:19
I have like sort of ownership
28:21
over my own opinions, and you
28:24
know what I'm saying. I would say that this
28:26
moment describing things as cool as really an
28:29
individual moment from every day. It comes
28:31
for different people at different times, exactly. I don't
28:34
think we have to track it back to when people
28:36
started using it. I just feel like
28:38
when you discover for yourself
28:40
what the word cool means and that you know how to use
28:42
it, like that is a cultural moment. I
28:45
just think, think about it. Like in order
28:47
to describe it's almost like so
28:50
the word cool would mean
28:53
um on the on the sort of side
28:55
of being cold. And
28:58
to describe that as something that is good
29:00
or valuable that is so interesting
29:03
to me, Like it had to start somewhere
29:05
like, hey, that's cool, Like it's not hot,
29:07
although you would call something hot to
29:09
say good, isn't it interesting?
29:12
It's very interesting. We don't talk about
29:14
thermo political
29:17
things in this. We don't talk about the political
29:19
things in this ONEK you do you remember where you were? I
29:22
had a kid in the fourth grade when I just moved to America.
29:25
His name was Shane Collins, and he
29:28
he was putting forth the
29:31
claim that he had invented
29:33
the word tight, like using tight.
29:36
The word tight was invented
29:39
um right outside of Bush Gardens,
29:41
um in Tampa Bay in the
29:43
year nineteen seventy
29:46
nine, thank you. And it's
29:48
important that we say that it was invented by
29:51
a m kid named John
29:53
David. John David, And it was said
29:55
to his two friends, Trevor and Tyler,
29:59
and he was talking thing about the tigers
30:01
at Bush Gardens. He was he was saying, though,
30:03
these tigers are tight, and actually,
30:07
um, there was an earthquake
30:10
and no one was hurt, but
30:13
the culture was changed. Was
30:16
there an actual earthquake that registered? There
30:21
was a sort of cultural earthquake.
30:24
There was, And even though there was a cultur rollers quake,
30:26
it did not make the list. It did not make the list.
30:28
Words tight did not make the list. Now number
30:30
eighty six, I don't know about I love this. I
30:32
put this on. It is Matt Rogers
30:35
wearing a harness on game show, a harness
30:37
over a shirt, and that is queer. Actually
30:40
was had a lot to do with me not wanting
30:42
to appear shirtless on camera. It um,
30:45
but I'm happy that sort of
30:47
you know, the harness was at least
30:50
something. It looked good. You know, I've never really
30:52
been like a harness type of you
30:55
don't have to be. No one's forcing it.
30:57
I've worned, I've worn it a couple of times. Doesn't
31:00
it doesn't feel right on me. But for
31:02
in that moment, I'll do a jock strap. Oh,
31:05
we everyone loves everyone should try to wear a drop strap.
31:07
I think it's great. Try sleeping in one.
31:09
Oh, it's really make you feel fabulous, make you feel
31:11
fabulous. The moment
31:14
of Matt Rogers wearing a harness on Game Show that
31:17
I think is wonderful that it all culminated
31:19
towards was the gift that's being widely used now
31:22
of Matt, which is him saying
31:25
um used widely used.
31:28
It's you saying I'm attracted to you, let's
31:30
have let's have sexual intercourse. Oh it's
31:32
I'm horny, I'm so horny, let's
31:35
go have sexual intercourse. So that
31:37
actually was a note from Quimby
31:39
because I said, I'm so horny,
31:41
let's go fuck, and they said, hey,
31:43
we have to take out the word fuck. And I was like,
31:45
Okay, well I don't want to say I'm so horny, let's
31:47
go have sex. So I was like, let's
31:50
say I'm so horny, let's go have
31:52
sexual intercourse, which I think
31:55
is what adds value to that.
31:57
Thank you. I had to save it. I
31:59
would have preferred to have just said and
32:03
that have been the clue. Anyway, watch Game
32:05
Show. If you don't know what we're understanding, If you don't
32:08

32:10
Games Show. Please go seek at this gift.
32:12
I think you can use it in so many album Get this gift.
32:14
Get this gif um.
32:23
Okay, So number eighty five is something I can agree
32:25
with. It is Stockard Channing
32:27
as Rizzo in Greece. There
32:30
are worse things I could do, Then put
32:32
Stockard Channing on the list.
32:35
She is iconic in this movie.
32:38
Huge, in this movie, I mean Rizzo,
32:40
what an iconic character in film and musical
32:43
theater, in culture. Look
32:45
at me, I'm Sandra d like the
32:47
classic bullying song. She
32:50
is so good at being
32:52
mean and like cold and removed
32:55
but remaining like a ball. Yes, she
32:57
is one of a kind. And Stockard sang
33:00
there are worse things I could do. She's sang there
33:02
are worst things I could do. She gave it body,
33:05
she she knew how to sing, and she was
33:07
acting first. And let's
33:09
just say other people have tried to sing.
33:11
There are worse things I could do, and they've done well,
33:14
but it's not the Stockard,
33:16
and I guarantee it's one of those things where
33:19
we will never hear a version like that. And
33:21
that's not necessarily because it
33:23
was she got the best voice of all time or whatever,
33:25
but she's just iconically musically
33:28
acting that song huge. It's a perfect
33:30
marriage, double helix of acting
33:33
and singing, and she got a hickey from KNICKI famously,
33:35
famously let's keep going, Let's keep
33:37
going. Number eighty four. This is a moment in culture,
33:40
the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror.
33:43
I mean that is culture. You
33:45
cannot get closer to a cultural
33:47
moment that deserves its spot
33:50
at number eighty four. I mean, come
33:52
on, it soared to number
33:54
eighty four on this. I can't really think
33:56
of more iconic theme park culture than that damn
33:58
building that has been struck by lightning,
34:00
and inside are the screams of people plummeting
34:03
an elevator, and iconic merging
34:05
of story and theme park attraction, iconic
34:07
merging of um,
34:11
what's his name? Sterling?
34:14
Sterling's voice, that
34:17
iconic voice that I could listen to that voice
34:20
another dimension. I heard something. I think Rod Slings
34:22
got a hot voice. I mean I can see that.
34:24
I think he was hot. Honestly, it's that kind of hot
34:26
voice where it's like it's a little bit nerdy, And that's how
34:29
you know it would sound really like
34:31
like hot and horny during sex, because like,
34:34
I don't think a masculine voice on the other end
34:36
is always with a way to go. Sometimes,
34:38
like you want to hear someone
34:41
going for it wouldn't be tough like this. Oh
34:44
no, oh no,
34:47
I don't like that. Actually, no,
34:49
don't say my name is hardest on game shoe.
34:52
Oh my god, Oh my god. What does
34:54
that sound like that you're doing? It sounds
34:56
like it
34:59
kind of sounds it
35:01
sounds like it's some some character. It
35:03
sounds like,
35:07
okay, that like
35:09
that, rod stop Okay. Number
35:11
eighty three a huge moment in culture.
35:13
Hillary Duff, Let's say it together.
35:16
I'm sorry, Hillary Duff, Lizzie
35:19
McGuire and more. You
35:22
know what I love about Hillary Duff. She
35:24
will not stay silent because I
35:27
remember when covid first broke out, she
35:29
would She just posted a bunch of stuff on Instagram
35:31
stories. Remember this, everybody, She was like, Hey,
35:33
are you fucking idiots going out to bars? Stay
35:36
the fuck home. She like, she has
35:38
the shortest views and she's not afraid to let
35:41
it light up. I mean, one of the only
35:43
celebrities that hugged us at Vulture Fest of
35:45
her own volition. Also
35:48
iconically on Younger she
35:50
is Lizzie McGuire. She was
35:53
the biggest pop star of like those Disney
35:55
girls at the time. When she came at she
35:57
said so yesterday and
35:59
she said, come Clean Clean
36:02
the iconic theme song to the Hills. Oh
36:05
my god, wait now the Hills was Yes.
36:09
Um started a feud
36:11
with Faye Dunaway when she was what fifteen
36:13
years old? Yeah? What have you done today? What
36:16
have you done today? What were you doing at fifteen? Not? Certainly
36:18
not starting a feud with the
36:21
old Hollywood icon Fade
36:23
Dunaway. Yeah, certainly not and also not for
36:25
nothing. But she was carrying on feuds with Faye Dunaway
36:28
and Lindsay Lohan at the same time. That
36:31
that is iconic. That is literally
36:33
her saying, I want the biggest mess
36:35
that's in her seventies and the biggest
36:37
of mess that's my young under
36:40
fifteen ass age. Let's start
36:42
a feud with Start a feud, bitch, and I'll still
36:44
end up on a premium
36:47
cable sitcom, Yes and
36:49
Multicam, and you will still listen.
36:52
You will still listen to my dance records.
36:56
Have you ever been on Molly while
36:58
Coming? While Come Clean is playing a remix
37:00
of Coming? Have I ever been on Molly while Come
37:02
Clean? As everybody else I have been around you
37:04
when this happens, when it's unbelievable,
37:07
it's safe to dance on masks
37:09
again, and you are able
37:11
to maybe be on ecstasy.
37:15
Come come clean, Coming clean, Coming
37:17
clean. When she goes with that part apart
37:20
from somewhere, she goes, I'm coming
37:28
Hilary Duff came on the
37:31
record and we all just kept dancing.
37:34
I'm sorry, just the beginning that song.
37:37
Let's go back back to the
37:39
beginning, and then she goes
37:42
back to the sun stars
37:45
all alive, so
37:47
stupid. Hillary Duff
37:49
is telling us to go back to the beginning of time,
37:52
and that's how she starts her song about love. That's
37:54
that's an acid trip. It's a mom it's it's
37:57
it's it's rolling, it's every drug
37:59
experience. Let's go back back to the beginning,
38:01
back to the sun, the stars all
38:03
aligned, A huge
38:06
song, a poet and I mean so yesterday,
38:08
the metamorphosis the album Huge, Come
38:11
on, I'm actually like shaking, shaking
38:13
um and number eighty two will have me continue
38:15
to be shaking. And that is super
38:18
based by Nicki Minaj. Iconically
38:21
our origin story, iconically our origin origin
38:23
story, matten Eyes origin story.
38:25
As friends, our friendship is founded on in
38:27
our identities as barbs. People forget that super
38:30
Base really locked
38:33
it in Song of the Summer. It was clearly
38:35
the song of the Summer, and I remember hearing it
38:37
and like checking in with you, like did you
38:39
hear this one? Because it is deep in the album.
38:42
It is a bonus track. It wasn't even on her album,
38:44
it was it was a bonus track or swild
38:46
bonus track. Taylor Swift sang it on
38:49
a radio show and Nicki
38:51
Minaj credits Taylor Swift with the super
38:54
Base moment, and that's an iconic
38:56
moment in culture for Taylor Swift to say,
38:58
I like the song super Bay, And then the
39:00
world turned their attention to super Base
39:03
and they had realized what Nikki had created
39:05
on that one, which is I think the
39:07
best pop wraps off of
39:09
the past since two thousand as
39:12
the century so far, esther esther,
39:15
Dean hook
39:18
hooks, and a video that matched the
39:21
sonic moment that Ice Motorcycle,
39:23
are you getting the pink lepper body suit
39:26
and all the guys in the peptobysmal pool.
39:28
I mean, it's unbelievable, It's so good. It's
39:30
a huge moment, a moment, a moment, a moment that
39:32
was Nikki's beginning really um
39:35
number eighty one, speaking of the ladies,
39:37
good luck book in that stage, speak of
39:40
Rihanna to Sierra, who could forget
39:42
this Twitter fight? Can you get into what
39:44
you tell the story? This story is
39:46
I don't know the specifics, but Sierra was on Fashion
39:48
Police and the picture of Rihanna came on,
39:51
and Sierra took umbrage
39:53
with the fact that Rihanna has not been kind
39:55
to her at certain award shows or events or
39:58
concerts. Something She said she'd route
40:00
to her restaurant, route to herd a restaurant even better.
40:02
So Rihanna catches the wind of this and then tweets
40:05
at Sierra, UM, I mean I mean my
40:08
bad seeds and I forget to tip you savage,
40:11
and then Sierra said.
40:13
Sierra said, I don't have time for this. I'm about
40:15
to get on stage, and then Rihanna
40:18
said the famous words more fatality
40:21
words. Good luck booking that stage
40:23
you speak of, I mean good
40:26
luck booking that stage you speak of, just
40:29
the word choice. I mean you can't beat that
40:32
good luck booking that stage you speak And let's
40:34
not gloss over the
40:37
savagery of oh
40:39
my bad seed, did I forget I forget
40:42
to tip you because you must have been the absolute
40:44
waitress. Don't go on fashion please and
40:46
talk about me. I didn't get in your
40:48
business. Good luck
40:50
booking that stage. You speak
40:52
up. It's amazing,
40:55
it's it's the most savage.
40:58
You should have known that she was going to release a
41:01
lingeree line called Savage Frenzy. And also,
41:03
didn't she tell you that she was a savage?
41:05
Didn't she tell you in that tweet
41:08
that shook the standems
41:10
before they were real, before stands,
41:12
before stand culture really took shape.
41:15
Number eighty Michelle Williams
41:17
and Anne Hathaway scenes and Broke Back Mountain.
41:19
We're not going to talk about the men. Enough has been set, enough
41:22
has been said, enough has not been said about the
41:24
ladies have broke back Jack
41:26
nasty, Jack nasty that scene
41:30
Fish, There's
41:33
really not much to be said. I mean, Anna Hathaway,
41:35
I wasn't like We've talked about this on blank Check
41:38
famously David Simson and Griffin
41:40
Newman's podcast. But
41:42
that's like the Anne's first kind of Prestigi role
41:45
after Princess Diaries, after Ellen enchanted.
41:47
It was a surprise to see her doing something like this.
41:49
Yes, and she's like Conican at
41:51
that last phone call when she calls Heath up
41:54
and tells him what happened to Jake,
41:56
Joel and Hall. Unreal Michelle talk
41:58
about Michelle. I mean, Michelle is amazing every
42:01
frame of this movie. She's incredible. And she has
42:03
that amazing scene where she sees them kiss, totally
42:07
silent reaction of that, and then
42:10
the confrontation scene at the end of the movie when
42:12
she says Jack Twiss, Jack
42:15
nasty, you don't go up there to fish
42:17
and she throws the plates and screaming,
42:19
oh my god. I feel like
42:21
they recreated this scene of her watching
42:23
them kiss. In the new show Love Victor.
42:27
Wow. And you know, Bowen and I have just watched,
42:29
well, I watched every episode.
42:32
Bow and watched the last episode and was impressed.
42:34
I was very impressed. I was also very stunned. That's
42:37
true. But um, there's a moment
42:39
at the end of the season that sort of
42:41
calls back to Brokeback Mountain
42:43
and I won't say what it is, but I will do
42:46
this. I'm going to shout out the
42:48
lead actress from Love Victor. Her name
42:50
is Rachel Hilson. This girl
42:52
is a talent, Yes, she is a talent
42:54
and Bowen. You can even see I all
42:57
I got were like maybe five minutes
42:59
total with her, even like I don't even think you saw
43:01
her speak much. But no, I didn't see
43:03
you speak much, but her acting it
43:05
hit me like a ton of breakfast. She is a
43:08
select She is so good. This
43:10
I'm telling you like Love Victor and also Anna
43:12
Ortiz is queen and
43:14
everyone's good. And honestly, I liked Love Victor
43:17
and I'll talk about it on another
43:19
episode of the pod, but there's more to be said
43:21
about it anyway. Okay, Number seventy
43:23
nine, Taylor Swift turning around
43:25
to see large crowd cheering. Now,
43:28
this is a This is like a common motif, and
43:30
Matt's clapping. I'm clapping because it's what
43:32
would we There would be so
43:35
much less to enjoy in the world if Taylor Swift
43:37
didn't turn around to see crowds and look the way
43:39
she looks. You wouldn't get the you know, sixth
43:42
single off of the album music
43:45
video that's just the concert footage, you know what I'm talking
43:47
about, And all her albums she has the
43:49
sixth single, Once the Cycle has died Down,
43:51
she releases in a music video quote unquote
43:53
that's just the concert footage, and half of it is just
43:55
be a roll of her turning around to be surprised
43:58
that the audience is there and smiling. Also,
44:00
if you've ever seen her in concert, she does still
44:02
do it to an extent. Did she do a reputation
44:05
tour. Reputation tour, she was kind
44:07
of like in a moody, So she
44:09
was famously in a mood during Reputation and
44:11
she was not like necessarily looking around and
44:13
smiling at the crowd, although you did get a few moments
44:15
throughout that she was happy that we came, but
44:18
mostly she was in like kind of a sour mood
44:20
during reputation, um, which I think
44:22
was the brand. But then you know she
44:25
was back to turning around and smiling
44:27
during the Lover era, and um,
44:30
I guess we're not getting a Lover tour. She
44:32
is rescheduling it to next year. She was
44:34
doing she was doing Lover festivals in different
44:36
cities. I will be seeing that. I'll be because
44:39
I loved Tay. And when she turns around to see
44:41
a crowd, like she's surprised every single time and happy
44:43
that everyone showed up, like it never happened before. That
44:46
was brand culture for me. But what
44:48
is the seminal moment of it. We know it
44:50
is her in the beginning of the after
44:53
Welcome to New York, of course, turning around
44:55
Peak Peek in that like teal sequined
44:58
letter jacket, letterman jacket and
45:00
just being like, oh my god, hi six people
45:03
like Hue so
45:05
at nine by the time she had gotten
45:07
to that level, it's like she was turning around and
45:09
like she was like but it
45:11
was a little bit less like I'm shocked
45:13
you came, and it was like, I'm so happy you guys
45:15
are here. It was that it was the
45:18
white girl version of Michael Jackson
45:20
popping up from the stage and people in like
45:22
Budapest like fainting for
45:25
like and like screaming for like, you know, seven
45:27
minutes straight. It's the white girl version of Beyonce popping
45:29
up, rising from you know, a
45:32
hydraulic system and everyone losing their
45:34
minds as she glares at everybody
45:36
in her beautiful, intense way, the white girl version
45:38
of as Taylor Swift turning around over her shoulder
45:41
being like, hey, y'ah, so glad you guys are And also
45:43
this was also the really this is the
45:45
beginning slash peek of iconic
45:48
Taylor Swift white girl stomp.
45:51
Once she would sort of stop from
45:53
one area of the stage to another,
45:55
and that was the extent of the corio, and that
45:57
was just kind of it. And then our reputation there was like actually
46:00
a lot of dancing, but the
46:02
white girl stomp was never more happening
46:04
during tell her stuff behaviors
46:06
on stage, chiefly her turning around to see
46:08
a crowd and being shocked that culture
46:11
moment and culture. Let's move on this, and
46:14
it is Marcia Cross on Desperate
46:18
huge Brint camp I feel that
46:20
this was the character that is most identifiable.
46:23
I would say the visual like picture
46:25
I have in my mind of Desper house Wives is of
46:28
um Marcia Cross as Brie
46:30
and the sort of energy I feel
46:32
of what I remember it is, of
46:35
course, but the image is Brive
46:37
Anti camp In in a tight bun
46:40
bringing a huge dish with Rex.
46:44
Wow, that's so funny that you think of the tight bun.
46:47
I think of that like a little swoop like
46:49
sort of miss Honey from the hair
46:51
that she had that like suburban freak.
46:54
She had that And for some reason
46:56
the scene that I keep thinking back to it, there's several
46:58
scenes that I think back to when I think of death for Housewives. But
47:00
one of them is season two premier. This
47:02
is after Rex dies and she's
47:05
just standing outside her house with
47:07
like a huge dish
47:10
or something, and the other wives scheme where they're like, whe
47:12
are you okay? She they would want this, and
47:14
they're like, no, we're okay. Do you need anything? She's
47:17
like, well, what a waste? And
47:19
she like throws away up giant dish and it's like, oh,
47:21
Marcia Cross, that is the moment,
47:23
Marcia Marcia Eva, I'm
47:26
gonna give some props to Terry.
47:28
I would give Terry props. I would give Terry props.
47:32
I mean Lynette's Gavo or Felicity,
47:34
are we gonna give her props? I give them all props,
47:36
but I don't give any of them as much props as Nicola.
47:39
Nicola who offered to slap to the face while
47:41
on set. I never forget that, and had to be electrocuted
47:44
to die. She was electric well, she
47:46
died like four different ways in an episode, but um,
47:49
which was kind of iconic, to be honest with you. But
47:52
yeah. Interestingly enough, when
47:54
I was thinking about Desperate Housewives for this list
47:56
and I know you agree. I just felt it's
47:58
Marcia. It's the Marsha Show. It's
48:01
Marcia when she iconically screamed
48:03
out in grief when she found out in the last episode
48:05
that Rex had died of the first season. The
48:08
moment, the like pearl clutching
48:10
moment. This was like back when Desperate House was was like
48:12
the first scripted show to make a splash after
48:15
like years and years of reality, right, And
48:17
I remember, like the moment was that dinner
48:19
party scene where she and Rex had just gotten into a fight, and
48:21
then like they're all the couples
48:23
are sharing funny stories about their significant others
48:25
and then you know what I'm talking about, Rex cries when he
48:27
ejaculates, huge,
48:31
unbelievable the clutch.
48:34
It's actually real culture. Number nine when
48:38
cry cries was
48:42
clutch. And now we're
48:44
gonna move on to number seventy seven,
48:47
which is Monique
48:49
and Mariah in the final scene of Precious.
48:52
You know this writer, Jeffrey
48:55
Fletcher is his name, won the Oscar
48:57
for Adapted Screenplay for this film. And you
49:00
one that disputes that you could
49:02
win an Oscar for the scene the scene alone. Oh
49:04
my god, they got Monique
49:06
the Oscar. I mean, she won
49:09
the Oscar walking in the door with this one. And
49:11
also Gabbarett is incredible in the incredible
49:13
and Mariah is put
49:16
some on miss White's come
49:18
on, come on, miss White, come on, Miss Weiss.
49:21
She really grounded the scene
49:24
and the three
49:26
of them were stunning. This was an incredible
49:28
scene, one of the best scenes I think, I'll say
49:30
of this century. I have
49:33
to I have to think that Mariah is aware
49:35
of the diametric sort
49:37
of opposite of her, Like she's
49:39
getting such a grounded scene in like such a
49:43
like the polar opposite in terms of a
49:45
person from Mariah Carey, right, like a
49:48
social worker. Yeah, who's just
49:50
sitting there like hey, like all right. It's honestly
49:52
weird though that she's It's it's interesting
49:54
to see her capable of such a grounds. It was
49:57
amazing. And also to be honest with you,
49:59
like you think no
50:01
part of her is like tipped off by Monique
50:03
that she should be bigger, you know what I mean. She really understands
50:05
her function in the movie. And it's a great
50:08
supporting performance. And you
50:10
know that that whole moment is
50:13
it's so vivid, it's so good. This scene
50:15
is amazing, and you know, if you want
50:17
to see actresses tearing it up, it is a hard
50:19
story to watch, but it's also you know, I think that's
50:22
amazing. Um, precious,
50:24
you must, you must, let's keep going. This
50:27
is number when
50:29
it was revealed and Frozen that it was about
50:31
sisters and not man. This
50:34
was iconic feminism
50:38
because when you hear love in a Disney film, you
50:40
think, oh, heterosexual couple, romantic,
50:43
but no, this is the love of sisters.
50:45
This is the love of sisters and it runs
50:47
deep, and only the love of sisters
50:50
could save them in the end. Actually, if you watch
50:52
and remember I think you're Anna,
50:54
I'm Alsta. Yes that is
50:56
true. But which I've thought
50:58
of this many times. I would there be the Ana
51:01
in some way? Why she just
51:03
gets to live. I have not seen Frozen two. I should
51:05
say Frozen too literally sucks
51:08
and I say it on the record, Okay, but Anna
51:10
feels like she's
51:12
She's the one who's living the most life and Elsa's
51:14
the one who's put upon, which I I'm fine
51:16
with beings. But Elsa has the
51:19
incredible she has the incredible
51:21
talent within and she has the
51:23
unbelievable power of all the stars
51:25
and all the weather and all the moon
51:27
and the universe within her. And when she learns
51:29
to let it free and control it, she is unstoppable.
51:32
So it doesn't matter that Anna is off having fun,
51:35
but you are Anna and everywhere you are Christin
51:37
Bell that and just like Kristin
51:39
Bell, I will figure it out. Let's
51:43
keep going. Number seventy five is
51:46
Tina Turners Eighties come Back. This
51:49
was a moment because you know that she did
51:51
not have an easy time of it with Mr Ike. And
51:54
also, can we say we need to stop
51:56
with the Ike Turner and Tina Turner jokes. So
51:58
let's just say that I was never I'm
52:00
always like I that's a pro cluture
52:03
for me. Whenever someone casually is like, oh, like,
52:05
I'm going to be the tire Tina, I'm like, wait a minute.
52:08
No. Also, he was her monster
52:10
and brutalizer. Tina Turner,
52:13
We love you. The eighties come back, The
52:15
eighties come back? What's love got to do with it? The iconic
52:18
care simpler, the best
52:21
everything, just the
52:24
end to end, simply the best with the
52:27
best, Yes, the
52:32
best. Honestly,
52:34
she is a wild vocalist power
52:36
and you know what I wanted to do for my birthday when I came
52:38
to New York, what I wanted to go see
52:40
t You know, we were we got tickets
52:43
to to see what. We had tickets to see Tina And
52:45
it was that week, I think it was three days before and
52:47
then they closed it down and who knows if it will even
52:49
open again now it's closed.
52:52
Until we kept talking
52:54
about anti culture this, let's
52:56
speaking of Broadway. This is rule
52:58
number seventy four. An Ariana Grande
53:02
from Wicked and
53:05
Unbelievable, Unbelievable and somehow like
53:07
the vote, the Ariana Granny vocal runs worked when
53:11
she goes from the lass favorite
53:15
Yeah you did it? That was hell
53:19
and that look of joy on her face right
53:22
before she hit the note, and also she had gone we
53:24
can't tell about it, but she had gone through something tough
53:26
a cop few days prior, and then was
53:28
on that show right after
53:31
the news of that dropped and slayd
53:33
that song down and to watch her get so happy
53:36
like before she was singing it, and while she was singing it, I
53:38
was like, this is a triumphant moment. And
53:40
it was kind of like, you know, Bernardette Peter singing
53:43
Hello, Dolly, It's like, Okay, a child of Broadway
53:45
has returned. Oh, yes, she
53:47
has returned to the stage, miss star
53:49
of thirteen and now number seventy
53:51
three, and I talk about her return to the stage. Missy
53:54
Elliott revealed Katie Perry's
53:56
super Bowl performance. It was a reveal.
53:59
I do want to point out that Matt Rodgers wrote in
54:01
Ruvealed she was revealed
54:04
when Missy Elliott was revealed during
54:08
Katy Perry had the Super Bowl and
54:10
that giant Katie was wearing. That giant oversized
54:13
like literally every single one of Katy Perry's
54:15
outfits of us both were hideous like
54:17
like, which is totally consistent with the rest
54:19
of her career. And I say that in the most loving way.
54:21
And we gotta say, I mean, Katy kind of nailed the performances.
54:24
I watched it the other day. Literally, I don't really
54:26
know what else you would want from a Super Bowl performance.
54:28
I think hers was amazing. Oh the girls have
54:30
done amazing. Girls. I have very few notes for the
54:32
girls. Um,
54:35
but Missy, Missy showing up, get
54:37
your freak on, is that what they did? Know that they your freak
54:39
gun and work it and work it. Um and then
54:42
lose control huge.
54:44
Do you remember lose control when
54:47
that would come on at school dances? Clear the floor,
54:49
Clear the floor, I gotta I'm sorry to bring
54:51
up ecstasy again. Go ahead. That
54:54
has to be a sick out experience. I probably
54:56
experienced, not lose control that past
54:58
that Dutch when Paris that
55:00
Dutch comes on and you're on Molly. I think I
55:02
turned to you. I was with you one time when this happened
55:04
to one time, the time that's happened that I can remember,
55:07
I turned to you and I was like, mean Girls is
55:09
an amazing movie. Yeah, that's what I said.
55:11
I'm sure that you did, and I'm sure
55:13
I agree to because I'm
55:15
I'm I'm rolling and I can only think of Rachel
55:18
McAdams being carried out by all these jocks onto
55:20
the field. Truly, I'm kind of we're
55:23
actually going to get to that later. Two
55:28
is Fergie singing Italian.
55:31
This was a moment of culture and it's worth
55:33
seeing the movie nine just to
55:35
watch Bergie sing the Italian. And it is a
55:37
joke to me that the Oscar nominee
55:39
from that is Penelope Cruz, who was great, but
55:42
she wasn't. Fergie singing the Italian as
55:44
a as a you know, sort
55:47
of prostitute down by the river.
55:49
Do you feel like Fergie outperformed Dayla tay Lewis.
55:52
Listen to me and look me in the eyes. Yes,
55:54
I do think. I think she was a shining
55:57
light. And let's
55:59
just say, Daniel day Lewis, he
56:02
did not hold a candle to Saratagin.
56:07
Italian is a crazy ass.
56:10
If you want to know about the love is
56:14
Psycho. I remember watching uh interview
56:16
with her about the movie and she goes, well,
56:19
you know what, I was singing the Italian.
56:21
My character Sarta Gina. She sings
56:24
the Italian so many times, and
56:26
so every time I said the Italian,
56:29
I wanted it to be a different sort
56:31
of meaning. Like you know, when
56:33
you say the Italian, it's like the love of
56:35
food, the love of sex, the
56:38
love of coature, the love
56:40
of the Italian
56:43
men. You know, it's so many things
56:45
that come with being Italian. And so if you
56:47
listen, every time I'm singing the Italian,
56:50
I'm singing about loving a different part
56:52
of being Italian. And I was like,
56:55
my jaw is on the floor, and not only
56:57
the words, but you re enacting, well,
57:00
I actually can embody. Literally
57:02
when I was right now, I was her in
57:05
my mind's eye, I saw myself as
57:07
first. It makes sense, It makes you
57:10
being a vessel for Fergie makes complete
57:12
sense to me. Do you remember the iconic
57:14
glass note? Do it?
57:17
No? I can't, And
57:20
she's like belting her big
57:22
old tits off what I
57:24
walked out of nine. I
57:27
stayed for the Italian. I stayed for Kate Hudson.
57:29
I think it was first. You didn't even see
57:31
Marian even
57:33
saw spiel Lauran. I think I just maybe
57:36
it was good. I
57:38
just left before like the end. I was just like I
57:42
saw what I came to see. I saw the women. I went out. I saw
57:44
it two times in theaters, once on a date. It
57:46
was like the third date I had ever been on in my life.
57:49
Oh my god. And so
57:52
this is this is just it feels like a betrayal
57:54
for me that you did that. It's me and Sudy's
57:57
favorite film. I know it is. It's so
57:59
bad. I
58:01
just I want to I just want to gay culture.
58:04
It's gay culture. But it was also like
58:06
good La Luna.
58:08
It's Sophia, she's a hundred, I know singing.
58:11
Kate Hudson has amazing hair, and she goes
58:14
and it's such a it's such a performance,
58:18
Kate. It's never looked better in a movie. Wait
58:20
now, I feel like while you're here, we have to have to watch
58:22
it, and we also have to continue. Let's go. Number
58:25
seventy one is Normany.
58:28
I mean, Normany has really
58:30
stormed into the scene, and she has stormed right onto the
58:32
list, right onto the list. But you and I were talking,
58:34
you know, you and I not to get pat ourselves too
58:36
much on the back, but you know we've been saying, we've been
58:38
saying, guys, the actual
58:41
star a Fifth Harmony is Normany La
58:43
Cabello, who you
58:45
know, has doing a lot of it, is going through a lot of
58:47
growth. And despite her you know, very anti
58:50
black past, she's now putting
58:52
the work in with very anti
58:54
black past and is now putting the working with
58:57
Mr Mendez and they are doing whatever
58:59
they can to to to to
59:01
do right by by everybody and everything. We
59:03
don't even want to talk about Camilla during it's
59:06
you and let's just say Normandy. We've been
59:08
talking about her for years. Normany. It
59:10
was always the best answer in fifth, Fifth Harmony.
59:12
If you look at the work video Normany is turning
59:15
it out from
59:17
home. She is crawling up and down that
59:19
damn bulldozer. And then when you got
59:22
my motivation, it was do
59:24
you remember where you were? Do I remember
59:26
where I was? I remember that day so vividly.
59:29
I don't remember where I was, but I remember
59:31
that it was constant watching
59:34
of the video Capital m moment, talk
59:36
about a moment in culture, motivation
59:38
video, just just calling
59:42
forth these cultural visuals,
59:46
paying her respects to Beyonce. And
59:49
here we thought that out
59:51
of all the girl group sort of b players,
59:53
that we already had the number one motivation when
59:55
Kelly Rowland came out with motivation, and
59:58
then Normany came out with her own motive vation
1:00:00
and she said, uh, look out for us
1:00:02
girls who are not the lead
1:00:04
singer of the group with the second lead vocalist vocal
1:00:06
Okay, look out for us too. And
1:00:08
we we gotta say Motivation by Kelly Roland is
1:00:10
this fantastic another bop but just didn't
1:00:13
make the list
1:00:17
because it didn't make didn't make it. What did make the
1:00:19
list is another song number seventy get
1:00:21
Out of My Way by Kylie Minogue,
1:00:24
I mean from the Aphrodite album, Huge
1:00:27
album, This is a huge album and
1:00:29
this song the video go
1:00:31
on about this the video you got
1:00:34
all these gay men, these
1:00:37
upside down triangle men running
1:00:39
around. I talked about
1:00:41
their silhouettes. They're they're just like beefy up
1:00:43
top top heavy, broad shoulder, just
1:00:45
like fucking voguing the house
1:00:48
down, the light projection
1:00:50
designs and then the chairs. Kylie
1:00:53
Minogue in a red outfit, just walking
1:00:56
up to this cliff, this golden lit
1:00:58
cliff during the bridge. It's
1:01:00
an incredible song. Goddess.
1:01:02
She was feeling her goddess iconography
1:01:05
there and this moment, this moment
1:01:07
on the list is indicative of a much larger
1:01:09
career that is Kylie Minogue, and we do respect.
1:01:12
I'm gonna say something to you. You need
1:01:14
to get more into Kylie. You need to get into
1:01:16
the back catalog. I'm actually surprised this it
1:01:18
took this long to come up because
1:01:21
you don't know that much Kylie. It would that be fair to say I
1:01:23
don't have like a deeper You know who loves
1:01:25
Kylie is Lewis Forte and Grand like
1:01:28
all the l A gays like I love Kylie
1:01:30
Minogue and I just have this sort of I
1:01:33
don't know I don't know who fills the space where
1:01:35
Kylie Minogue needs to go. Here's what
1:01:37
you do. Start out looking searching
1:01:39
for her interviews. She there was no more
1:01:41
charming, deep pop diva interviews
1:01:44
than she. She's second to maybe
1:01:46
share like in terms of being charismatic
1:01:48
in interviews, and like once you see them in an interview, like yes,
1:01:50
I love you, I will follow you to the end of the earth. Kindie,
1:01:53
there so great interviews And just listen
1:01:55
to X listen to I mean
1:01:57
just everything Kylie listened to. I
1:02:00
mean Golden I think is a great record. She
1:02:02
but like, but Guy Brandham said, wow, Gaga
1:02:04
when she released Chromatica gave us a Kylie
1:02:07
Minogga record, Like that is like the
1:02:09
ethos of Kylie just giving you dance
1:02:13
anthems down boots. Okay, let's
1:02:15
keep going. Let's
1:02:23
talk about number sixty nine. You don't have howork
1:02:25
to do for this. No, the discovery of
1:02:27
penicillin antibiotics
1:02:29
huge. We could not be where we are in
1:02:31
the pout them. I don't think that
1:02:34
I could have come back from so many sicknesses
1:02:36
that I have had had it not been for antibiotics.
1:02:39
And I just want to shout out to all the doctors
1:02:42
right now, and we are thinking of you. We're
1:02:44
thinking of you. Let's keep going. Um, this
1:02:46
is number sixty. This is an iconic moment. I'm
1:02:48
so happy you put on thank you when Ash
1:02:51
Armelion evolved
1:02:52
into because this is truly
1:02:54
the loss of innocence. This is the loss of innocen.
1:02:56
This is saying goodbye, This is saying goodbye.
1:02:58
And you know, if you remember from a show, Charmelion
1:03:01
was not very nice to Ash, did not follow his
1:03:03
orders. No, but it's crazy because it's like this
1:03:06
is actually there's a much deeper meeting here because
1:03:08
the char Mander was really sweet, so sweet
1:03:11
charm We never would have seen this coming.
1:03:13
There's lots of it is since But you know what else this is,
1:03:15
This is a model of a
1:03:17
toxic relationship. Yes, and it was
1:03:19
really it was Ash let him mature too
1:03:22
quickly, and it was it was
1:03:24
it was really what it was was overtraining
1:03:27
and it was abuse. It was abuse. It was overtraining
1:03:30
abuse. It happens all the time. And
1:03:32
because when you remember that Charis Art was
1:03:35
even worse than Charmelion in terms of being
1:03:37
so cocky, not listening to Ash,
1:03:40
flying away from battles when ashe needed
1:03:42
him the most. And then you know later
1:03:44
on, I think it was in the Joe to League
1:03:46
that Ash gives up Charis are Ultimately
1:03:49
he realizes they both be better off. But
1:03:51
that very Brilli and Andrew moment, very
1:03:53
brill and Andrew moment from Desperate Housewives.
1:03:55
But this is um that was the moment that they saw each
1:03:57
other as equals. Was when Ash was able to
1:04:00
let chars Are go, and Chars I respected
1:04:02
that from Ash. Honestly, it's a huge moment.
1:04:04
Ultimately, it's this is one of the most
1:04:06
I think it's the most painful relationship
1:04:09
in the Pokemon universe. I think so. And an
1:04:11
amazing arc and an amazing arc. Amazing
1:04:13
arc. Thank you number sixty seven.
1:04:15
When w ah
1:04:20
and A Star Is Born this
1:04:24
I was with you the day the trailer dropped. Yea, And
1:04:27
to say, I think I googled it every
1:04:29
day from when I saw the trailer to when the
1:04:31
movie came out. I was so excited for A Star
1:04:33
is Born and it did not disappoint.
1:04:36
And to know that not only was
1:04:38
that amazing moment in trailer history,
1:04:40
it was an amazing moment in cinema history in
1:04:42
a way that made me forget. Like it made
1:04:45
me because for a while I was like, there's not
1:04:47
gonna be like a melodramatic movie.
1:04:49
It's gonna rock us on a
1:04:51
cultural level like this. Uh
1:04:53
like since you know I was thinking this
1:04:55
thing years ago, I was like, there's not gonna be like a My
1:04:57
Heart Will Go On. Yeah. I
1:05:00
think that what we had there was the closest
1:05:02
thing we were going to get to like my Heart Will Go On
1:05:04
moment, where like a ballad
1:05:07
like that was really from the soul
1:05:09
of a movie and had to only be for that movie,
1:05:11
like really crossed over, although we did have Let
1:05:13
It Go. Actually,
1:05:15
you know what, It's weird because I always think of
1:05:17
like the moment of ballads
1:05:19
from movies being huge hits as very Yester
1:05:22
Year, but The
1:05:24
Star Is Born both had huge Oscar
1:05:27
winning songs that were huge mainstream
1:05:29
hits. I think Shallow was one of Lady Gaga's
1:05:31
biggest records ever. I think it. I think it
1:05:33
has like one trillion
1:05:36
stream Yeah, it's like a really crazy amount
1:05:38
of streams. Um, you're right,
1:05:40
You're right, one trillions. It's
1:05:45
real culture number eighty three
1:05:49
streams on Spotify. But you
1:05:52
know, it's like my heart will go on. I don't want to miss
1:05:54
the thing. It's like all these like huge,
1:05:56
sweeping melo dramatic songs. Yeah,
1:05:58
I thought they were like a thing of the past. Spit then here
1:06:00
here Gaga, Nadina go okay,
1:06:03
Oh my God. Number sixty six Kelly
1:06:06
Clarkson singing Natural Woman on American
1:06:08
Idol. I have to give you the floor on this.
1:06:11
So there were a lot of performances
1:06:14
that were big moments for
1:06:16
Kelly on American Idol, and Bowen had suggested
1:06:18
that we put Kelly Clarkson winning American Idol on
1:06:20
the Culture List. But the thing is, it was a foregone
1:06:23
conclusion that she would win early on in
1:06:25
the season when she sang a natural woman,
1:06:27
because she hit this whistletone note. She
1:06:29
was rocking a tie and a little hat. She
1:06:32
was so addressed like a little businessman. What was
1:06:34
the theme that week? This theme was sixties
1:06:37
and she's saying natural woman and it was so
1:06:40
she was twenty years old. It was well beyond her years.
1:06:42
And I said, this is not only going to
1:06:44
be a star in the Winner of the Show, but this is
1:06:46
going to be someone in my
1:06:49
life. And she has remained so And
1:06:51
I'm looking right now at her vinyl,
1:06:53
her meaning of like designed vinyl
1:06:56
and she just want an Emmy, a daytime Emmy
1:06:58
for talk host. Halfway got
1:07:02
Halfway? Do you got? And Kelly, I've
1:07:04
known it from the beginning. I love you. You're
1:07:06
a moment of culture. Do you have anything to add, how
1:07:09
emotionally ambassy you pay tribute
1:07:11
like this lover her. She's
1:07:14
a moment of Kelly so much. And you
1:07:16
know Kelly was you know Kelly earlier on and
1:07:19
the last episode was kind of
1:07:21
involved in the moment of culture of Matt and I being on the view
1:07:23
that she she was the reason we were there.
1:07:25
She was the reason we were there. She wasn't the culture
1:07:27
that day. It was us. The culture
1:07:30
was us. And um that
1:07:32
gentleman who went to
1:07:34
go to the concert, but we don't speak of him. Uh,
1:07:37
let's move on. Kelly's number sixty six, but number
1:07:39
sixty five is Sailor Moon.
1:07:42
This iconic young woman
1:07:44
took the morning time by storm in my
1:07:47
house, in your house. Sailor
1:07:49
Moon, um Usagi,
1:07:52
Serena, whatever you wanna call her, but
1:07:54
just did the world around her gave us the
1:07:57
magical girl archetype in anime in
1:07:59
manga. Um uh,
1:08:02
what a what a heroic girl fighting
1:08:05
evil by moonlight, winning love by daylight, never
1:08:07
running from a real fight. This is the one named
1:08:09
Sailor Moon and the transformation
1:08:12
sequences Sailor, Venus, Sailor, Mercury Sailor,
1:08:14
Mars Sailer, Jupiter Dream. I could go on
1:08:16
and the Sailor stars the series. You had the
1:08:20
Search for your Love, you had Sailor, Neptune
1:08:22
Sailor. You're in a Sailor Pluto iconic.
1:08:24
Queer characters, queer cultured trans
1:08:27
characters a huge thing,
1:08:29
a huge part of the culture. I just remember watching
1:08:32
Sailor Moon in the morning, and it was so early when I had
1:08:34
to go to school that it was still dark out, so
1:08:36
it was like watching a like a primetime show,
1:08:38
but before school. I remember it was so early in
1:08:40
the morning that it was on. It was it had to be on, like
1:08:42
like it was always dark outside
1:08:45
or maybe it was raining. I don't know. I was young. Um,
1:08:47
okay, so we're moving on to number sixty four.
1:08:49
This is Parker Posey and
1:08:52
Josie and the pussy Cats iconic.
1:08:55
When she walks down the stairs to her own party.
1:08:58
Why do you do? What could
1:09:00
do to me? Baby? Shaking
1:09:03
my convdence, driving me
1:09:05
crazy? You know if I could,
1:09:07
I'd do anything for you
1:09:11
so good And she is just sort of letting
1:09:13
her body sway. It's incredible,
1:09:15
I mean. And that movie really is like comedically
1:09:19
like so huge. You had Parker Posey, you
1:09:21
had a Eugene Levee, Cameo, Alan,
1:09:24
Alan Cumming, Missy Piles, Rosario
1:09:28
Richel could of course, yes, became Donald
1:09:30
Faison and what's his name? Freck
1:09:33
and meyerck and Meyer. We love one of my crushes
1:09:35
Green. It was like of
1:09:37
the time, like so perfect. But then you had like
1:09:39
the Christopher guest flavor and there with Parker and with Eugene,
1:09:42
and I just remember that movie influence.
1:09:44
We've talked about this before, but that movie has influenced me so
1:09:47
much. Oh it's also well ahead of
1:09:49
its time in terms of what it was saying and what it was
1:09:51
exploring. Now. Number sixty three
1:09:53
is Yohaugenberg inventing
1:09:56
movable type? Well, we certainly
1:09:58
wouldn't be here. It certainly wouldn't be easy to live life
1:10:00
with that what he had done. Imagine having
1:10:02
to read a handwritten book. Thank
1:10:06
you not my favorite Gutenberg. That would be
1:10:08
Steve Gutenberg. Would love Steve Gutenberg
1:10:10
didn't make the list. You know who did make the
1:10:12
list is number sixty two. Robin.
1:10:15
We love Robin. Robin has
1:10:18
created some of the most amazing music
1:10:20
of our time. And I would actually say the
1:10:22
song that defines our generation the most is Dancing
1:10:24
on My Dancing on My Own. Absolutely, there's pathos,
1:10:27
there's a beat, their suffering, there's
1:10:29
joy. And you know, one of
1:10:31
my fondest memories is of going to the Robin
1:10:34
Honey concert at Barclay Center, Yes,
1:10:36
with my sister Matt Rodgers and
1:10:38
Josh and and Josh and Mo and Dave,
1:10:41
and we brought poppers and
1:10:44
when the poppers hit at a Robber at a Robin concert,
1:10:46
they hit and I saw it so hard. I saw him
1:10:49
that vogueing, the fastest vogue
1:10:51
I've ever seen in my life. I was really filling
1:10:53
myself with that Robin concert. And how could you not,
1:10:55
I mean, that was that was one
1:10:57
of the best summers ever, honestly, and also
1:11:00
it was just such last summer. Oh
1:11:02
my god, it's so that was a great summer.
1:11:06
No, I'm so sad. I will have great summers.
1:11:09
We'll have great summers anyway. Robin provided
1:11:11
us with that moment and so much more. And I remember her
1:11:13
in singing
1:11:16
show Me Love, and that is longevity right
1:11:18
there. Yes, come on Swedish pop
1:11:21
Icon to be celebrated. Number sixty
1:11:23
one, Hey clown Jester, you
1:11:25
have done it again constantly for
1:11:28
the circus. This is the
1:11:30
Michelle Obama meme replaced with words
1:11:32
clown and jester and circus. Look
1:11:34
it up. Look it up and of course foolishly and
1:11:36
doing it and doing it foolishly. It's
1:11:39
perfect. It's just a good meme. It's great, and
1:11:42
it's a culture momentum.
1:11:44
Number sixty is Feud, Bay
1:11:46
and Joan. Where is the next series
1:11:49
of Feud? So I looked into this. They were
1:11:51
they were going to do Diana and Charles um
1:11:53
and then they were going to call it something else and it lost
1:11:56
the Feud name like
1:11:58
the pre colon really and
1:12:01
then Ryan Murphy sciences Netflix deal,
1:12:04
so then I think Feud is contractually
1:12:07
bound to FX. So now that he's
1:12:09
on Netflix, he's like, I don't know when I'll be able to do
1:12:11
Feud again, but I would love to do foot again when
1:12:13
I can. So we it's it's
1:12:15
indefinitely just done. But
1:12:17
feud, what we had a feud? Isn't
1:12:19
that sad? That is a bummer because I actually
1:12:22
thought that feud was one of the better Ryan Murphy too,
1:12:25
Yeah, and you know whatever, But I
1:12:27
thought Bettie and Joan was great, even though the writing is like,
1:12:29
I love Betty and Johan and I need a little bit of over
1:12:32
the top writing like that sometimes. I
1:12:34
mean, the last episode
1:12:36
of spoiler Alert, Um,
1:12:38
Jessica Lang is Joan Crawford hallucinating
1:12:41
all of you know, the the old Hollywood
1:12:44
people who tormented her. Um
1:12:46
so good. She's truly good in it, and honestly,
1:12:49
had it not been for big little lies in nicole
1:12:52
Um, that was a crazy year. It was a crazy yer
1:12:54
and we're actually gonna talk about it in a second. Fifty
1:12:57
nine is S Club seven.
1:13:00
I mean, these two these young girls hot
1:13:02
sort of like, you know, trying
1:13:05
to be the new group of the moment and succeeding there for a little
1:13:07
bit because it was Simon. It was some. It
1:13:10
was not Simons, Miss Fuller, Simon
1:13:12
Fuller signing them and this is hot
1:13:14
off the success of the Spice Girls. You
1:13:16
know, S Clip seven as club party. Um
1:13:20
never had a dream come true. All
1:13:23
that just really songs for the moment,
1:13:25
for the moment, and we can all remember that moment, sort of like
1:13:27
wishing we had like a boyfriend or a girlfriend
1:13:30
at the time, and sort of like you know, so
1:13:32
soda pop fantasies. Yes, yeah,
1:13:35
that's how I think of them. Number
1:13:38
I can Barely see is a little
1:13:40
bit of a different fantasy of a soft drink
1:13:42
or something you could drink. The invention
1:13:44
of ice coffee. I can't
1:13:46
live without it. Me neither love the stuff moving
1:13:49
forward? Fifty seven is I
1:13:52
mean, for me, this is
1:13:54
Desperate Housewives, but make
1:13:57
it even richer and prestige
1:14:00
and with an oscar Worthy director
1:14:02
and real A list talent behind the camera.
1:14:05
I identify as Reese and big little
1:14:07
lies I have. I guess I'm
1:14:09
a Shelene. We've never really figured out what I am. I
1:14:14
feel you're celest, but with power,
1:14:17
you're so lest when she's in the courtroom.
1:14:20
What do we think of Season two? I
1:14:22
don't hate season two as much as everyone else
1:14:24
does, but but I would
1:14:27
say that I would
1:14:29
rather have big little lies than not
1:14:31
having, Like I'm if
1:14:34
at the end of the season I'm mad because
1:14:36
there was too much pulpe on my
1:14:38
drama about like rich A
1:14:40
list actresses. It's like, that's fine.
1:14:43
I'd rather like, yeah, you know, how many
1:14:45
seasons of Big Bang thirty like have been on. We
1:14:48
can get a few seasons a bit little lies. I don't
1:14:50
really ever understand when people are like, we
1:14:53
don't need a third season. It's like, yeah, I
1:14:55
don't need, like I
1:14:57
don't need another a million dollars, but
1:15:00
want it like thank you, And
1:15:02
it's the same, am bib little Ice. Season three would be the equivalent
1:15:04
of a million dollars. You know what they didn't
1:15:06
do enough in season two, which they also didn't
1:15:08
do enough in season one, was not enough Marion Marion
1:15:11
Dungey. Well, I thought that she would
1:15:13
be a bigger part exactly what's what I'm saying. But she
1:15:15
wasn't. Yeah, she wasn't. And she also
1:15:17
was iconically in Private Practice to spin
1:15:19
off when it was a backdoor pilot, and then they
1:15:21
recast her with miss Audre McDonald, who unfortunately
1:15:24
did not make the list. Um
1:15:26
let's keep going. But who did make the list? Number
1:15:28
fifties six Deb Wilson on Mad
1:15:31
TV, one of the best sketch performers
1:15:33
of all time. In my opinion, you put her up there with
1:15:35
Gilda. Oh. I mean, she pops
1:15:37
on the screen like no other and the choices are
1:15:40
out of control, but they are welcome.
1:15:43
Let's just I'm truly rattling
1:15:46
these off yet, Whitney Houston beneath
1:15:49
a Latifa harri Fa Sharifa Jackson, you
1:15:51
had prehistoric prehistoric,
1:15:53
I mean you had yes, prest Clamazon Huntress
1:15:55
is a d she was She was like
1:15:57
the she was Mariah. She was this
1:16:00
default commercial parody voice. She was the cssily
1:16:02
strong of that TV um
1:16:05
she she did so much, she did so
1:16:07
much incredible. Oh she did Diana
1:16:09
Ross in a crazy Halloween
1:16:11
theme sketch. If people remember where she bit
1:16:13
Michael McDonald's nipple off. I
1:16:17
love mat TV so much as people know Deborah
1:16:19
Wilson like popped in
1:16:21
a way. I love
1:16:23
her and I agree. I mean, this is a
1:16:26
seminal artist artists. And speaking
1:16:28
of artists, number five,
1:16:31
Brandy Cinderella, this
1:16:34
is the definitive telling of Rogers and Hammerstein.
1:16:36
Thank you. And you had an Asian male
1:16:39
lead in the nineties, Are you kidding me? She
1:16:41
had biracial parents and it was just it
1:16:43
was it was a Victor Garber and Whoopi Goldberg
1:16:46
and like it was just
1:16:48
a completely colored blind cast. Not that that even
1:16:50
had anything to do with it. I remember being little and not even
1:16:52
thinking about it was just like amazing
1:16:55
to watch. And Whitney was the godmother of
1:16:57
course, the Whitney Houston impossible
1:17:01
things all happening. I
1:17:05
mean, come on, and Brandy
1:17:07
iconic sitting all on in her little corner, on her own little
1:17:09
chair, sin in her chair, and
1:17:13
did you ever see like the interview footage or
1:17:15
like the footage of them staying together at the
1:17:17
in the studios. It's just beautiful
1:17:20
and well that was Brandi's
1:17:22
idol, that was Brandie's idol, and like, but you
1:17:24
could see that Whitney was pushing her because
1:17:26
she knew she was capable. And look,
1:17:29
you had a gay dad, Victor Garber, huge
1:17:32
and married to Berna,
1:17:37
I mean, iconic, burna dead getting a big
1:17:39
part like that. We like ever,
1:17:41
my mom said to me, that's Brenda Deett Peters and I was like,
1:17:43
I don't know that, but I do know that. I
1:17:45
want to know more, you know what I mean. I was like, I'm actually
1:17:47
interested in hearing more about this Bernadette
1:17:49
Peters because there's something going on. That was
1:17:52
my first exposure to Berna Dead, I think I would imagine.
1:17:54
So yeah, so I'm moving forward. We
1:17:56
have a number fifty four. This is iconic Jurassic
1:17:59
Park. Think about all
1:18:01
the culture that Jurassic Park has given us. I mean,
1:18:03
not only do we have Laura during staring up and wonder
1:18:05
at what we then realized later was a c
1:18:07
G I dinosaur. There wasn't even anything for her
1:18:09
to look at, talk about acting talking about it. Then you've
1:18:11
got I mean, Beaty
1:18:14
Wong serving up iconic fish villain.
1:18:16
You got that t Rex, another villain
1:18:18
in the film, very big, very mean, the
1:18:20
raptors extremely nasty,
1:18:24
and we had the most handsome
1:18:26
creation of all as dr
1:18:28
Ian dr Ian Malcolm,
1:18:31
Thank you Mr
1:18:34
Jeff, Mr Jeff Goldbloom.
1:18:36
And we have sex icon's icon.
1:18:38
You had the iconic little cartoons
1:18:40
train of DNA narrating how
1:18:43
the park came to be, talking about the amber,
1:18:45
talking about the MS Dinosaur theme Park. They
1:18:48
sat down and they wrote Dinosaur Theme Park, of Course, which
1:18:50
is a novel. First, thank you Michael crist Then
1:18:52
we had Steven Spielberg making into the amazing
1:18:54
moment. And then we have the theme parks everywhere
1:18:56
nationwide, I mean internationally,
1:18:59
Girl Dress Park. Now we have Jurassic World.
1:19:02
The movies are um
1:19:04
trying something new, but they
1:19:06
do give us Bryce Dallas Howard out running
1:19:08
a t Rex in her heels. That
1:19:11
and then in the second movie a ponytail. Chaotic
1:19:14
good, chaotic. This is the definition of chaotic
1:19:16
good. Absolutely, it's actually real culture.
1:19:18
Number seventy Bryce Dallas Howard
1:19:22
is the definition of chaotic
1:19:25
good. Thank you, Let's move on. Number
1:19:27
fifty three is Dr Meridian.
1:19:29
We just watched this film. I haven't seen
1:19:32
any I haven't seen a
1:19:34
lot of streamocrafy, I have not seen a Streat Macro film
1:19:36
since he passed away. Oh, you need to watch Batman
1:19:38
Forever and Batman and Robin in a double feature. Because
1:19:40
Nicole Kidman as Dr Chase Meridian is
1:19:42
not what you remember. She is driven
1:19:45
only by her sexual impulses. In the film,
1:19:47
she has iconic Veronica l hair. She rings
1:19:50
the bat symbol, which means that something is happening
1:19:52
just so she can get make it on a roof, so that
1:19:54
she can like you know, sort of
1:19:57
position him.
1:19:59
She is lashing her movies around like
1:20:02
she is driven wild by her own wiles.
1:20:05
And this was she's a psychotherapist. This is
1:20:07
Val Kilmer Batman, Batan,
1:20:09
I'm sorry to say, I mean not even close.
1:20:12
Who do you think it's the hottest? How does Batman? I
1:20:14
mean, if if to be to be totally honest
1:20:16
with you, the hottest Batman, flat out period
1:20:19
is Christian. You
1:20:21
have a body like that, George Clooney, You didn't
1:20:23
see the body. Well he wasn't even trying, George
1:20:25
Clooney. Now he was like mad to be there. Yeah, yeah,
1:20:28
of course he wasn't even happy about being there. God,
1:20:30
Batman and Robin is truly truly
1:20:33
crazy. It's one of the most insane
1:20:35
movies ever. But we're gonna talk about it a bit,
1:20:38
Okay. So number five two is The Sims?
1:20:41
What would be without the Sims? One of the best selling
1:20:43
games of all time. Um, you know you
1:20:47
could live out all your fantasies on the Sims. You could.
1:20:50
I did feel rich playing the Sims after
1:20:52
Rosebud, of course, after the rosebed
1:20:54
Cheat. But you know, to live out your
1:20:57
fantasies by building as big of a house as
1:20:59
you wanted. Um,
1:21:01
I felt rich. I've never felt did you ever do the
1:21:03
code to get unlimited money? Yeah? Rosebud,
1:21:06
Rosebud always, always, always,
1:21:08
And you know it was fun too. In
1:21:10
sequels, you know, there's
1:21:12
aspirations that you can work with, and it was
1:21:14
fun to sort of, you know, make my character
1:21:17
the mayor of sim City. That's incredible,
1:21:19
thank you. See I was like a really coach tycoon
1:21:21
person. But I feel that the Sims arened
1:21:23
its place here because I even played the Sims as
1:21:25
well. And to sort of watch my characters quote
1:21:27
unquote interact was very
1:21:30
formidable for me. For not formidable,
1:21:32
it was formative and formidable. And
1:21:34
I don't know my words, but I do in my heart. Let's keep going,
1:21:37
um, let's keep going. Number one
1:21:40
speech. The world is ship. The world
1:21:42
is bullshit. The world is bullshit. This is
1:21:44
bullshit, she said, and she was right. She was
1:21:46
right, and she said, go with yourself,
1:21:49
Go with yourself, Go with yourself. Isn't
1:21:51
that beautiful? Honestly
1:21:53
she only looks crazy at the time, but now looking
1:21:56
back, ahead of her time, ahead of her time,
1:21:59
go with yourself. Don't go with what this industry
1:22:01
wants you to do. Go with yourself and
1:22:03
what like also like what eighteen at the time, young
1:22:06
Michelle branch Age, Billie eilish Age, Kate
1:22:08
bush Age, smart ass, smart as
1:22:10
girl. And moving forward we have another
1:22:13
incredible ass number fifty Lucy
1:22:16
Lou Flip your goddamn
1:22:18
hair and Charlie's Angels too, of
1:22:20
course Cameron who then flipped her hair to Luke
1:22:23
to great success. Luke
1:22:25
Wilson, who was hot and hot, but also
1:22:28
Matt LeBlanc was also hot in that movie, and so was
1:22:30
Sam rockwell so with Samuel
1:22:32
Rockwall, Tom Green with Drew Berrymore's
1:22:34
loving not hot in the movie, but you
1:22:36
know, he served, he served a purpose. He was goofy,
1:22:39
definitely goofy. I love Charlie's
1:22:41
Angels me too, Oh my god, like
1:22:44
a really well directed movie. And the writing is so fun
1:22:46
and it's really that's I mean, it did what the
1:22:48
new one didn't do, which is it went for the fun and the
1:22:50
jokes and the sort of campiness,
1:22:52
which is this idea that there would be a Charlie's
1:22:55
Angels. You have to blow that up. You have to
1:22:57
blow that up. And the music and the soundtrack and Charlie's
1:22:59
Angeles is all like seminies classics, mostly
1:23:02
like it's like it's like a tribute
1:23:04
to the original Charlie's Angels. It's
1:23:06
so good. It's so good. I also think
1:23:08
it understood something that the New Charlie's
1:23:11
Angels didn't, which is like the Charlie's the New Charlie's
1:23:13
Angels like what I like about the old Charlie's
1:23:15
Angels. And maybe there's something weird about me saying this, but
1:23:18
I like that they were like overtly sexual,
1:23:20
that they were like really in control of their
1:23:22
sexuality, and this new one sort of had like
1:23:24
almost like a chip on its shoulder about like feminism.
1:23:28
Yeah, like it was just like, no, they're not sexual,
1:23:30
they're just they're just soldiers. And it's like okay,
1:23:33
and I mean yes, but also that doesn't
1:23:36
like, let's not shame the movie that came
1:23:38
first and the like female
1:23:40
production team that put it together, and like, you
1:23:42
know, but it's it's the third wave. I feel
1:23:44
like Charlie's Angels, the McGee to
1:23:47
the two McGee movies was very third
1:23:49
wave feminist in the way that it was like they were empowered because
1:23:52
of their sexuality in spite of it anyway,
1:23:56
were it was amazing and Lucy Little we stand
1:23:59
and now we're in the top fifty, number forty
1:24:01
nine and Vogue and Salt and Pepper
1:24:03
collabing on what a man. I mean, come
1:24:06
on, come on, I mean this is a huge moment
1:24:08
um like maybe
1:24:12
best singing girl group of all time and Vogue
1:24:14
I think so. And then but just the moment,
1:24:17
it's a perfect marriage. Um, no
1:24:19
one is compromised on the song and you know,
1:24:21
you get you know, he's so crazy.
1:24:23
I think I want to have your baby. I
1:24:26
mean, like perfect, like seamless into
1:24:28
it's drenched, so good, drenched
1:24:31
in goodness. Come on, here we go. Number
1:24:34
Billy Porter's curtain hat. You
1:24:36
can't say much about this and then iconic other
1:24:38
than iconic, and watch the video of
1:24:41
it opening. It's very funny. It is very
1:24:43
indicative of Billy Porter's fashion sense,
1:24:45
which is a whole moment, and it's represented here
1:24:47
on the littlest of the top two. Let's
1:24:50
keep going. Number is God Warrior.
1:24:53
You came to my mind. I saw her. I went
1:24:56
to go see her at our station. You came to
1:24:58
my mind. You came to my mind. A
1:25:00
slee the God Warrior speech from wife Swap.
1:25:03
It's beautiful. We
1:25:05
saw Bob the drag queen to a lip thing to it. That
1:25:07
was the next level. It broke it all
1:25:09
open from me. And I went home that night and I watched I
1:25:11
saw Bob do it at a Barracuda,
1:25:13
went home, watched it and I was like, I maybe even
1:25:16
texted you. I was like, this is an incredible thing.
1:25:18
Oh, it's an incredible moment in television history. And
1:25:20
now did you know that she's like repentance,
1:25:23
yes, and she's like very woke. Yeah,
1:25:25
she like she celebrates lgbt Q
1:25:27
and like and like she's like I think
1:25:29
she's down with like like the uprising
1:25:32
too, and like black Lives Matter. I think I
1:25:34
love that. I think she's like fully like repentant
1:25:37
and she's like go on the opposite, Well, I mean to see
1:25:39
yourself be that, to see what
1:25:41
you think is a normal thing be blown
1:25:44
up and like become such a crazy
1:25:46
moment in history. Maybe she had some
1:25:49
good uh re educated, but
1:25:51
it doesn't always happen. But like I
1:25:53
just think the I'm gonna I'm gonna blow out the mic.
1:25:57
She's not a Christian. Amazing,
1:26:02
she's not a Christian. Oh
1:26:06
my god, it's tainted all
1:26:08
right. Number forty six is Fergie singing
1:26:10
the national anthem. Of course, she capped it off
1:26:12
with let's play some basketball. She makes
1:26:15
it on lest twice a
1:26:17
huge feed. I think she
1:26:21
was. She she did the jazzy rendition of the national jazzy
1:26:23
rendition and we love
1:26:26
I. I don't think it's actually that embarrassing for her.
1:26:28
I think she like, she need not be embarrassed.
1:26:31
She took us by the shoulders and she was like, you're gonna listen to me saying
1:26:33
the national now, and she and I'm gonna do it my way and
1:26:35
it's gonna be a moment. And you know what we're talking about it right now.
1:26:37
You know we're not talking about right now the All
1:26:39
Star Game. We're not talking about anyone
1:26:41
else's version of that now we have them except
1:26:44
Fergie. Yes, okay, you're right, numbers
1:26:48
pretending to America's
1:26:50
next. So of
1:26:52
course this is the You really are the tyra historian
1:26:55
of the two of us, and not really, I didn't. I didn't
1:26:57
even watch that top model that much. But
1:27:00
of course we know the moments, and the moments are
1:27:02
you know, um Eva
1:27:05
and all all the famous winners,
1:27:08
all the famous winters, all of them but you
1:27:11
remember this moment, right She's she's sitting down
1:27:13
with the girls on a chair. She's like, I'm really
1:27:16
I don't feel good anyway. Um okay,
1:27:19
I just wanted to talk to you guys about this challenge.
1:27:22
But I'm I'm sorry. I'm sorry, guys, I'm just so tired,
1:27:24
okay. And then she gets up and then all of a sudden,
1:27:27
trips over herself and eats
1:27:30
ship on the carpet of this room
1:27:33
as the girls freak
1:27:35
out, and you just you have to listen to these screams
1:27:37
because of the girls were like it's
1:27:43
incredible, and ty were just like flips
1:27:46
her bodies and she lands on her shoulders
1:27:48
and like you're not sure if she's seizing or if she's fainting.
1:27:51
And then someone get her water, get
1:27:53
her water, and then she gets up and then of course
1:27:56
famous she goes, you gonna
1:27:58
learn about my God,
1:28:01
it's so relentless acting.
1:28:05
Well, let's just go right into our next time, which
1:28:07
was number forty four Banks pretending
1:28:10
to have rabies on Tyra. So
1:28:12
this is when she took her acting to the next level and
1:28:14
pretended that she was bitten by a dog who gave her
1:28:16
rabies. Foamed at the mouth live on stage
1:28:18
during an interview and collapsed and roared at
1:28:21
her guests like she was a dog, barked to the camera.
1:28:24
And so entire's mind, having rabies
1:28:26
is turning into a dog. That's what she was
1:28:28
telegraphing. Yes, And the fact that she took
1:28:31
a sip from her from her like water bottle
1:28:33
and filled herself with like foam and
1:28:35
then pretended to foam at the
1:28:37
mouth and turn into a dog and growl at guests.
1:28:40
I don't understand. She deserved the Emmy. She won the
1:28:42
damn day. And
1:28:46
I'm gonna have to agree with that one. And gonna
1:28:48
have to say number forty three is rate the
1:28:50
Franklin's Gowns interview, the
1:28:53
iconic sit down that Aretha
1:28:55
did when she released her Diva Covers
1:28:57
album and she was asked about Ello
1:29:00
Swift and she said, okay, gowns,
1:29:02
beautiful gownswn and
1:29:06
just watch it. Just watch. I mean, you know, if
1:29:08
most of you know by now on
1:29:10
that one that's from that interview, that's
1:29:12
a book of lies and trash. Just what
1:29:14
that is, that is nothing but lies and
1:29:17
trash. That is a book of lies
1:29:19
and trash and of course, Sissy's
1:29:22
baby, Sissy's baby. I mean Aretha
1:29:25
Franklin, the grand dam of music, as
1:29:27
far as I'm concerned, holding her,
1:29:29
holding her place and just
1:29:32
not having any of it from this interviewer.
1:29:34
Aretha was a talent and
1:29:37
moving forward before we have lose
1:29:41
voice. This is that deep
1:29:44
voice, deeper than that, this is
1:29:46
the deep like it's
1:29:48
just a gorgeous I can't even do it. She has
1:29:50
an iconic grasp. Has
1:29:53
she really done a lot after House and Sand
1:29:55
and fog? No, she was on
1:29:57
Gray's Anatomy, she was on Think,
1:30:00
She's been on some shows in sort of the streaming
1:30:02
era era that we're not that we're just not thinking
1:30:04
of that. We love Shara. I love Shara.
1:30:07
I'm trying to think like I think she was in
1:30:09
one iconic thing, but it's like not jumping out to
1:30:12
now I know, how's it saying in vog is pretty iconic.
1:30:14
She had the Oscar nom, she had the Oscar No. But
1:30:17
it's a shame to me that she hasn't worked more because she's iconic
1:30:19
and like beautiful someone
1:30:22
who you've seen pictures of her from when she was young. Yes, gorgeous,
1:30:24
but I'm saying like she's aged into her
1:30:26
beauty. Yeah, she was
1:30:28
like a screen goddess. Um. Okay, So
1:30:31
speaking of goddesses number forty one,
1:30:33
Greek mythology, I mean, so
1:30:36
many young girls are in these stories,
1:30:38
Yes, a lot of young girls. We learn about Zeus,
1:30:41
we learned about rapist. Zeus
1:30:44
is a rapist. Really, so many Zeus babies
1:30:46
are products of rape. I'm
1:30:48
sorry to have to read this again. Yes,
1:30:50
I'm sorry to bring the mood down, but it's true. But like I
1:30:53
just want to say, I have nothing to do with my ancestors.
1:30:55
I apologize for them and I denounced them.
1:30:57
Thank you, thank you for taking accountability. But I
1:30:59
feel like Greek mythology, if you,
1:31:01
if you're really dug into Greek mythology, you learned about
1:31:03
the human condition and you look about the darkness and
1:31:05
the light and humanity. And that's what we try to do, an
1:31:07
entertainment exposed the darkness and the light.
1:31:10
So thank you, greet thank you. Now we have
1:31:12
number forty The opening piano A
1:31:14
Thousand Miles by Vanessa Carlton. You
1:31:17
know it, you'll love it. It's
1:31:25
a comedic beat and white checks. It's
1:31:27
if you ever hear it, it is
1:31:30
it I think is. I honestly think if that
1:31:32
came on and we were on Molly, we would flip a ship.
1:31:35
It's transportive, Yes, it
1:31:37
is. It takes you back to another I remember the first time
1:31:39
I heard it. I was in the car on the way to Catechism
1:31:42
to study, to study the Catholic religion
1:31:45
on a Tuesday night. And I was in the
1:31:47
car and I was like, we I can't get out of
1:31:49
the car. I have to know what's happening
1:31:51
with the song. When the strength come in, You're like, I
1:31:54
it has its damn close in me and
1:31:57
I con niconic song, I
1:32:00
hanic song. And yes, I was
1:32:02
in the car. It was on Radio Disney and I was like, this is
1:32:04
a huge, huge Vanessa Vansa
1:32:07
And then that really was you forget
1:32:10
like because that song was so huge. It feels one
1:32:12
hit wonderous. But she also brought to you with white
1:32:14
Houses and she brought a tea with ordinary
1:32:16
day. Yes, we
1:32:18
love Vanessa. I love Vanessa.
1:32:21
I believe she was on Broadway. I
1:32:23
think she wasn't beautiful, beautiful, she wasn't
1:32:26
beautiful, and you know what she she
1:32:28
edged out a lot of competition. She edged out
1:32:30
Robin. She edged out, I
1:32:32
mean Aretha, Yeah, I mean, but she
1:32:35
didn't get to the heights of number thirty nine.
1:32:38
Little mix, hey singing black
1:32:40
Magic. So this is a part of culture that you didn't
1:32:42
know about until I told you yesterday because
1:32:44
we were listening to a little Mix and you were playing the bop
1:32:47
of Bob's thinking about you. What it was,
1:32:49
it was, have you do you think about
1:32:52
us? Think about us? I'm sorry I mistitled
1:32:54
think about us? And I was like, put on black Magic
1:32:57
and you said, well, no, they hate singing black Man,
1:32:59
even though I like black Magic, said when
1:33:01
I was like, they don't like black Magic?
1:33:04
And then he was like what And I was like, have you ever seen the
1:33:06
YouTube video of them being so over singing
1:33:08
black Magic? And then we came back and we watched
1:33:11
it and it's shoe Jesse and Nelson in particular hates
1:33:13
black Magic. And there's a it's
1:33:15
like this clip of the many times they've sung it. They
1:33:17
clearly hate doing it. They're
1:33:19
doing it acoustic, they hate it. And then
1:33:21
there's a clip at the end which is them all in quarantine
1:33:24
drinking wine together doing like an instant live or something.
1:33:26
You're doing a great addressing and go
1:33:28
ahead, Oh no, here
1:33:31
we go. This next question is what's the song you
1:33:33
hate doing the most? Black Magic? Black
1:33:38
Magic? And they're
1:33:40
like, oh, yeah, you don't really, you really don't like black magic
1:33:42
and just I've never really locked it to be on it, Jesse.
1:33:47
I love iconic and black
1:33:49
Magic, And although I do
1:33:52
think that if we had to sing it every night, we'd have to, we'd
1:33:54
be really sick of yeah, for sure. But okay,
1:33:56
their harmonies only sing that's not acoustic
1:33:58
are unreal. And the music
1:34:00
video, I think it's amaster the Crown. That
1:34:04
number thirty eight Desperate
1:34:07
Halfwives. Now I was
1:34:10
a little bit questioning this one. You could have reordered
1:34:12
it. You could put marsh Across above Alfrey.
1:34:14
But I think it's right that al Free is up here because
1:34:18
White Betty Apple White, and
1:34:20
she iconically had two sons,
1:34:23
one of which was a killer and the other
1:34:25
which was locked in
1:34:27
the basement she thought was the killer, but was actually
1:34:29
the other son who it was her son Matthew, who was the
1:34:31
hot one, very hot actor, crazy
1:34:34
hot. He was also on True Blood and you see
1:34:36
him have sex many times. That's
1:34:38
perfect. He has sex with Routina Wesley's
1:34:41
character Tera Routina, Oh my
1:34:43
God, to gorgeous Routina on the
1:34:45
list. Routina is one
1:34:47
of the best actors we've had in tele I'm gonna
1:34:49
say right now, Routina, we apologize
1:34:52
you were an honorable mention. You and Nicoletus
1:34:54
are honorable mention Routina, Routina,
1:34:57
and also Anna Paquin's gap and
1:35:00
Quand's gap and she made it work.
1:35:02
And the iconic gay sex scene on
1:35:05
True Blood between Alexander Skarsgard and Ryan
1:35:07
Quanton. Thank you, thank you. Oh no, no, no
1:35:09
no. But I just want to say before we move on, Alfree Woder on Disperate
1:35:11
Housewives, just great
1:35:14
work. I mean nominated, I mean nominated. The acting
1:35:17
is so restrained and like you
1:35:19
can tell, there's a darkness behind whoever
1:35:21
this character is. And she just pursed
1:35:24
lips a free worder can act her
1:35:27
ass off her personal lips.
1:35:29
And also, please, if you want more Alfrey, go
1:35:31
see Heart and Souls. Y um okay.
1:35:34
Number thirty seven Murder on a Stupid
1:35:36
Bitch Express. This is come
1:35:39
on, Matt, what is it? It's the iconic, iconic
1:35:42
two part episode of our very
1:35:45
favorite podcast hosted by
1:35:47
Mazie Rodman and Theta Hamill and
1:35:51
I have never laughed so hard so soon
1:35:54
until the beginning of a podcast episode. It
1:35:57
starts off with an improvised transactions
1:36:00
and somehow it works. It works. Oh, you've
1:36:02
never seen it. Okay for people who don't
1:36:04
know improv at this point, who can't be
1:36:07
doing transactions. You can't be doing transaction scenes,
1:36:09
but Macy and they to make it work so well.
1:36:11
I mean, Joel Kim Booster has said, um
1:36:14
that you are the Macy of this podcast. You're
1:36:17
you're, you're, you're, you are sort of the the
1:36:19
joy, the chaotic good that's just running
1:36:22
him up. Yes, and I am sort of the straight man
1:36:24
who has to straightment against everything. And I've
1:36:26
never been more flattered that first. I'm
1:36:28
also flattered. I think NIPA
1:36:31
Wars is a superior podcast in every way.
1:36:33
I would say it's better than ours. Please listen too
1:36:35
to qualify. I'm sorry, and no I would
1:36:38
I wouldn't disagree. And also I would say, Joel
1:36:40
Kim Booster, thank you so much, but you didn't make
1:36:42
the lists. You didn't not this time.
1:36:45
Number thirty six. Evia Lungoria
1:36:47
saying, hi, heleronic acid.
1:36:50
I've never been struck by a
1:36:53
cosmetics, a skincare commercial. In
1:36:56
my life. Her energy has inspired me from
1:36:58
the beginning gil at least down
1:37:01
to high leronic acid.
1:37:03
Yeah, I mean I've been inspired every step by the way. She's
1:37:05
the queen of one liners. And this is, in its
1:37:07
own way a one liner. A queen of Corpus Christie
1:37:10
Texas, Thank you, Queen of Corpus Christie.
1:37:12
Even number thirty five documentaries
1:37:14
about important subjects such
1:37:16
as global warming, such as whales, such
1:37:19
as um, the way that um
1:37:22
you can go from being a waitress in the Wrongs
1:37:24
to becoming congresswoman,
1:37:27
the youngest congresswoman. Yes, And
1:37:29
you know, there are so many documentaries
1:37:32
out there, and we we would suggest
1:37:34
that if you are someone who you know, it's
1:37:36
not easy for you to read a book, but you want to learn,
1:37:38
you can watch the documentary. I would say in
1:37:41
a lot of ways, Matt Rogers
1:37:43
famously more of a documentary watcher. I'm famously
1:37:46
kind of I read a little bit more books than Matt.
1:37:48
But I could say Matt is maybe in general more
1:37:51
informed than I am on certain subjects, and it's because
1:37:53
he watches The Doctor. Lately, I've been watching a lot of documentaries
1:37:55
and absorbing a lot of new information,
1:37:58
which is new for me. I usually just kind of live in my own
1:38:00
world, but now that I'm in quarantine, I've actually
1:38:02
been branching out in terms of my interests and educating.
1:38:06
I love I want you to school my ass on Jeffrey
1:38:08
Epstein whenever I could. Um,
1:38:10
okay, so number thirty four
1:38:13
Rachel from thousand six.
1:38:17
We had mean girls, we had wedding crashes, we had the
1:38:19
notebook. We had read by eye that
1:38:22
this is like right around family Stone,
1:38:25
and it ended yes, And I made sure to look up when Family
1:38:27
Stone came out. Family Stone was two thousand five. I want
1:38:29
to see what a
1:38:31
run of movies like, like I
1:38:34
could do everything a moment though, for an
1:38:36
actor who deserved, who like fully rose to
1:38:38
the occasion on every single on every single
1:38:40
level, every single time. I think.
1:38:42
It's like I remember at the time being
1:38:45
a fucking teenager and being like, Wow, this
1:38:47
is huge, And I don't
1:38:50
know why I'm so obsessed with this actress. I was
1:38:52
going on she had star quality, star quality.
1:38:54
I was going on her. I AMDB every damn
1:38:56
day, commenting on the damn message boards, being like I
1:38:58
love Red macn you were a super fan. I haven't
1:39:00
really shared this with you. I was. I used to go on Canadian
1:39:03
Queen, Canadian Queen. I always I would go in
1:39:05
all the IMDb message boards because back in the day
1:39:07
you had at the bottom of every profile message
1:39:10
boards, and I would go to the ones
1:39:12
of like Sean Hayes and I'd be like, guys,
1:39:15
do we think Sean Hayes is really gay? Like
1:39:18
I would like start up these these
1:39:20
conversations. Oh my god, you were a little troll.
1:39:22
I was a little troll. I was a little you know, a
1:39:25
little reply guy, little keyboard worry. But you
1:39:27
love miss Rachel. I loved Miss Rachel
1:39:29
so much. And what a string of hits
1:39:31
in this in this time period, she really nailed it. What
1:39:34
do you have to say about Rachel? What do I have to say about
1:39:36
Rachel? She has that like iconic
1:39:39
just like intangible quality. And
1:39:42
I mean during this time it was when you talk about
1:39:44
like great comedic performances, you can't really
1:39:46
do much better than Regina George and your girls. She
1:39:49
also fully carried Red Eye the whole
1:39:51
time, like and it was really
1:39:54
kind of it got me in the movie theater for a
1:39:56
movie like that, which I never would go to, like a thriller like
1:39:58
that awesome Wedding Crashers.
1:40:00
She's so winning and like you're so rooting
1:40:02
for them to get together because she's incredible. And
1:40:05
then also the Notebook is you
1:40:07
know, polpy, but
1:40:09
she is giving you romantic drama lead
1:40:12
thank you and okay, Wedding Crashers
1:40:15
like so charming and like, yeah, her and Owen Wilson,
1:40:17
it's like I'm on you like white Unrice, like oh
1:40:19
my god, Like I'm like that's hot. I want
1:40:22
like this is pulling me in the
1:40:24
Notebook. I didn't know this, but during filming
1:40:27
her and Ryan Gosling hated each other. Yes,
1:40:29
I couldn't stand each other. And then they started
1:40:31
dating when the movie came out. Yeah, when it came like
1:40:33
but he like tried to get her replaced. I think
1:40:35
he was like, it's other her or me, and they were
1:40:38
like no, Rachel
1:40:40
McAdams. And of course the famous moment
1:40:42
in the filming stone, I don't
1:40:45
care what you think. Of
1:40:47
course you do small
1:40:50
work work, and it's so shocking
1:40:52
to me. The her Oscar nominationist for Spotlight, a
1:40:54
movie where she doesn't do much since
1:40:58
she's good. She listens to Michael Syrol Creighton, Um,
1:41:01
but you said something to me recently
1:41:03
where you were Like her performance as Regina
1:41:05
George like did influence female
1:41:09
behavior in generation?
1:41:11
It did it? It and its specifically
1:41:13
influenced what girls
1:41:16
thought was dominant social media. Her
1:41:20
literally, her vocal delivery, her
1:41:23
inflections, her state
1:41:25
of being, the way she carried herself
1:41:28
all trickled down to actual
1:41:31
girls trying on the sort
1:41:34
of visage of mean girl in
1:41:36
a way that like, I don't know, I didn't go to school
1:41:38
in the eighties or the nineties, but it's like that didn't really happened, like
1:41:41
after Heather's came out, you know. It's like Rachel
1:41:43
like like Regina George is like, no,
1:41:45
it's that thing. It's like a blessing and a curse because
1:41:47
you have people like that who are so good
1:41:50
that you want to be like them, and when they're playing
1:41:52
someone mean, it's like that's
1:41:55
the thing. It's like, I mean, that's literally
1:41:57
kind of what the movie is about. It's about idole, where
1:42:00
ship amongst peers or amongst people
1:42:02
that are like attainable to be around and become
1:42:05
and so what you'll do to become
1:42:08
that and I think it weirdly played. It played out
1:42:11
um for people that were too young to understand
1:42:13
what was going on. That's the impact of I mean, she's
1:42:15
incredible, incredible, Um Alright, number
1:42:18
thirty three, we have Lemonade. Remember
1:42:22
when we didn't know what this was going to be. That
1:42:24
it was just her in the in the in the
1:42:26
dreads and like we had
1:42:29
just like the album art, just the album right
1:42:31
was heard in a six inch like set
1:42:33
up. Yeah, and the world the word Lemonade.
1:42:35
It was actually it was don't Hurt Yourself, Yeah
1:42:39
it was. And so she was just had the title
1:42:41
Lemonade, and it was like is it like a purple
1:42:44
range real film, like is
1:42:46
it a collection of music videos? Is
1:42:48
it an album? Is it? What is it? Is it going to be
1:42:50
short? Long? And it ended up being
1:42:53
you know, uh, like long form
1:42:56
music video art piece.
1:43:00
And it was tree and like
1:43:03
a tribute to like Yoruba tribal
1:43:06
motif like it was, and
1:43:08
like we're recording this on the eve,
1:43:10
not on the evel. Black is King is about to come
1:43:12
out her next visual album,
1:43:14
inspired by her time working on The Lion King.
1:43:18
Like you know, Lemonade is a huge culture, huge
1:43:20
culture and like really just
1:43:23
I would say, in
1:43:25
many ways a response to the times as well,
1:43:27
and as well as being a personal
1:43:30
reflection and almost like a personal
1:43:32
explanation. Yeah, and
1:43:35
a way to sort of, um cinematically
1:43:39
tell her story.
1:43:41
I put it in quotes because you
1:43:43
never really know what's true. But
1:43:46
the beautiful thing about Lemonade is like she like
1:43:48
it did serve as an explanation
1:43:51
as to why she was staying with jay Z, but
1:43:53
in a way like she'd fully closed herself off at
1:43:55
that point in terms of like not doing any press,
1:43:58
and it was like she kept it private
1:44:00
while also publicly publicly
1:44:02
controlling what the public saw, like I mean,
1:44:05
the narrative around them and remaining queen. Incredible,
1:44:08
incredible. Um, Okay, So number
1:44:11
thirty two we have Disney Weddings
1:44:13
in real life and the Disney Plus show
1:44:17
What has Happened this Week? So this week
1:44:19
I got into l A and you
1:44:21
know, we were sitting around and
1:44:24
we were thinking of something to watch, and then we
1:44:26
put on Disney Plus went
1:44:29
to the show. Disney Spairytail
1:44:31
Weddings. Season one was on Freeform. Season two
1:44:33
was on Disney Plus. And
1:44:37
I can't even really put this into words Matt, can you help,
1:44:39
Like, what is the special about this show? It's
1:44:42
camp, yes, it's
1:44:45
stock footage of Disney locations. It's
1:44:48
character driven. Yes, it's
1:44:50
really about the characters who appeared on the show and
1:44:52
why they want to get married. And you are laughing
1:44:54
at them in the beginning, but then by the end
1:44:56
you are crying with them because you
1:44:59
are just so moved. And it's
1:45:01
purity, it's pure, and it's
1:45:03
truly commercial budget.
1:45:05
It's budget. It's a budget. It's purity.
1:45:08
It's good intentions meets commercial
1:45:12
masturbation in a way that it's just like I
1:45:15
think it's funny because it's so manipulative, but
1:45:17
I respect that about it, but you still enjoy
1:45:20
in spite of that, and look
1:45:22
like, you know, it's these people
1:45:25
who are getting married in the Disney parks around on a Disney
1:45:27
cruise or any Disney property at
1:45:29
like six in the morning or two in the morning when
1:45:31
the park's closed, are closed
1:45:33
so that no one else is around, because
1:45:36
of the parks used to be open every single
1:45:38
day of the week at many hours the day.
1:45:40
But you know, just to see these people like be
1:45:44
go on this journey, I've never seen anything
1:45:46
like it. I've never seen anything like a
1:45:48
beat out lemonade by and the beat out lemonade by Beyond
1:45:51
Site by one spot. Apologies to her, but
1:45:53
you know who didn't make the list at all? Adele Um
1:45:56
number thirty one, Wendy Williams
1:45:59
fainting huge when she
1:46:01
was dressed as the Statue of Liberty and took that
1:46:03
humble I think we all
1:46:06
had to ask what's going on? What's going
1:46:08
and she was fine. She was fine,
1:46:10
And Wendy's had a lot of moments. Let's
1:46:12
just get that out of the way. I'm I mean, let's
1:46:14
just say she said more problematic and done
1:46:17
more problematic things than good. But
1:46:19
we love her and we respect
1:46:21
her, and we thank her
1:46:24
for her recent apologies about what she said
1:46:26
that guys should stop quote dressing
1:46:28
up as us, and we
1:46:31
just in her. In that very apology, she
1:46:34
iconically misused the term beau
1:46:36
vivan. She thought, you know, I don't know what
1:46:39
it means. I don't know French. But when I hear
1:46:41
the words boiv, I think, um,
1:46:43
I think, you know, do whatever you want. I forget what it was.
1:46:46
But she fully makes
1:46:48
up a definition for bone. Well, I don't believe
1:46:50
that Wendy Williams does even a second of
1:46:52
research where she gets on stage, and I think that's
1:46:54
actually how I wanted to stay. I don't want
1:46:56
Wendy Williams to change. I wanted to remain
1:46:59
her having a understanding of all
1:47:01
the things that she talks about. I think
1:47:03
that's actually better because it's more reflective of
1:47:06
how people actually talk. That's true,
1:47:08
and I am actually behind what I'm saying. Thank you, um
1:47:10
number thirty, Why did
1:47:12
you do that? Why do
1:47:16
that do all that? To me? You
1:47:19
said in the car the other day. God has never gone
1:47:21
harder on the song, never gone harder. I mean we
1:47:23
were this sprang from the notion
1:47:26
that I before, which is like God, it never goes, never
1:47:28
pulls back. She's never settled on her song, but
1:47:30
she has never like gone full maximalist
1:47:33
as she has on Why did You do that? Never?
1:47:36
I don't think we've ever seen a second
1:47:38
verse ripped into with such passion
1:47:40
as because I have that
1:47:45
I and then that ends in the iconic
1:47:48
what are you doing it? I
1:47:51
mean like it's just it's so unhinged
1:47:54
and was such an effective part of the movie
1:47:56
because you got in a second what kind of popstar?
1:47:58
She had become. Later on, Diane
1:48:01
Warren, the writer of the s, would say, actually, it wasn't
1:48:03
supposed to be a joke. It was supposed to be a real good pop
1:48:05
song. And here's the thing, she's so wrong
1:48:07
and so right at the same time, which makes it a major
1:48:09
success for me. Thank you and her iconic
1:48:12
orange hair. Why did you do that? Is a roor shock
1:48:14
test of pop music? And I mean
1:48:17
we got Alcoball would saying, ladies and gentlemen,
1:48:19
Ali and you had Generosatano
1:48:21
stage manager at SNL going Alecan five
1:48:24
four three. I mean it
1:48:26
was a moment and your family, my
1:48:28
family, my family. The next is number
1:48:30
twenty nine, season
1:48:33
two finale. The
1:48:35
amount of things that were happening in the grays Anatomy
1:48:37
season two finale, it just made you appreciate what
1:48:40
had been done all season long and the
1:48:42
way that it closed some loops and stories
1:48:45
left others open. He had Sandra Oh
1:48:47
running to Preston Brook's hand and just doing
1:48:50
a ballet the ballerina pose and just like
1:48:52
staying there. Meanwhile, we have the
1:48:56
death of um Danny. Danny had just
1:48:58
happened, and is he making the realization
1:49:00
that she needs to quit being a surgeon and
1:49:03
leaving the cut right
1:49:05
to well, I guess that puts
1:49:07
an end citive. Yep. They leave, and then
1:49:10
the iconic moment with Meredith
1:49:12
Gray looking at Dr.
1:49:14
Derek Shepard and the veterinarian played
1:49:16
by Chris o'donald Finn Dandridge
1:49:18
Wow, and they Finn Dandred and
1:49:21
they both say Meredith as if they
1:49:23
want the hair to come with them, and she
1:49:25
just iconically looks up to this guy to
1:49:28
those final notes of Chasing
1:49:30
Cars by snow Patrol. And that
1:49:32
was the moment that I knew that culture was for
1:49:35
me. That was the moment that I nu culture was
1:49:37
for me. I remember texting all my
1:49:39
friends and I were
1:49:41
calling him in it. And that was back in the day of minutes. It's
1:49:44
been like, dude, you watch Grazon and
1:49:47
God, I mean there, it doesn't get more two thousand six
1:49:49
than that. I have to say that
1:49:52
was a moment in time, and
1:49:54
it's at twenty nine. It could very easily be higher.
1:49:57
This is when it's starting to get tough. Yes,
1:50:00
this is when it starts to get tough. And we are almost two
1:50:02
hours in and I'm realizing now we're going to have to do a third
1:50:04
episode of this. No, that's
1:50:07
just the way it's going to have to be. And I'm sorry to our
1:50:09
producers. You're gonna have to text
1:50:11
me because we're not gonna We're gonna literally
1:50:13
it's about to be a two hour episode. We can blast,
1:50:16
No, we can't, Okay,
1:50:18
all right, Number twenty
1:50:20
eight, We're rain on
1:50:24
rain on Me was a moment in
1:50:26
culture that just happened. But you
1:50:29
can't. It's here's what I think. It's
1:50:31
ore, enough is enough, no more tears. It's
1:50:34
yes, you're so right. That's all I
1:50:36
have to say. I mean, rain on me when
1:50:39
when we have Rainami
1:50:41
tsunami in the same song
1:50:44
as Ariana Grande is transition
1:50:46
up in the end of the bridge. There's
1:50:50
so much going on here. I'd rather redrive. But
1:50:52
at least I'm alive. Rain on Me,
1:50:54
rain on Me, water like misery. It's coming
1:50:56
down on me. The a moment in culture,
1:51:00
the duo that is Ariana and Gaga.
1:51:02
I can I just say. I feel like we're doing
1:51:04
great and I feel like we can just blast that. There
1:51:07
is no way. What
1:51:10
do you mean? There is no way? And you're wasting time here.
1:51:12
We're gonna get to twenty five and then we're gonna stop number
1:51:17
seven. Pumpkins spinning on
1:51:19
New York. Go ahead, talk
1:51:21
about this. This has been. This
1:51:24
has been like the feud all season
1:51:26
long and Flavor of Love season one, Pumpkin
1:51:28
in New York just hating
1:51:30
each other, New York waving a knife and Pumpkins face in the
1:51:32
kitchen every day calling
1:51:35
Pumpkin ugly, you know, all
1:51:37
this stuff. Pumpkin gets eliminated,
1:51:40
and New York is just
1:51:42
tearing into her as she's doing her goodbye
1:51:45
hugs, um, and
1:51:47
then she's and then Pumpkins hugging Hoops,
1:51:51
the eventual winner of a Flavor of Love season
1:51:53
one. Hoops is telling her not to listen,
1:51:55
not to engage with New York. New York is over there
1:51:58
screaming at Pumpkin and telling her ugly she is,
1:52:01
and of course it all escalates when Pumpkin
1:52:03
says, actually, I could slap the
1:52:05
ship out of you, and the iconic
1:52:08
tamber on New York saying do it,
1:52:11
slap me, bitch, and then the
1:52:13
lugie that gets hopped and lands
1:52:16
right on New York's chin and the just
1:52:20
and they're propelling that that
1:52:23
New York that just
1:52:25
as like you see her soul sort
1:52:27
of and her body goes with it.
1:52:30
It's motherfucking do
1:52:33
you see that, bitch? Fucking spit my motherfucking
1:52:35
fifth witch. I will take you out.
1:52:39
What a moment it was, truly,
1:52:43
it started something. It started
1:52:45
a conversation amongst reality show
1:52:47
villains past and presence in the future,
1:52:50
and it said, this is the bar. Come
1:52:52
see me up here, Come see me up here, because
1:52:54
you weren't even sure who was the villain in that situation,
1:52:57
but we know it was New York, and you know
1:53:00
you love New York. I had not heard
1:53:02
of New York until the tim and
1:53:05
I heard of Tiffany Pollard until this bit happened. Everyone
1:53:07
at school is talking about. I was like, I have to
1:53:09
go to someone's house, who has cable, who has beach
1:53:11
one, and I have to watch this to the point
1:53:13
where I would go on business trips with my dad just so I
1:53:15
could stay in the hotel room and watch marathons.
1:53:18
A flavor of love that
1:53:20
is deep, this one. I was like, I was obsessed
1:53:22
with New York. This is huge. I
1:53:24
mean, I get it well because I'm
1:53:27
taking my time talking about New York. Because I guess we're doing a
1:53:29
third episode. No, we are. What do what do you have
1:53:31
to say about New York? What do I say about New York?
1:53:33
I mean an original, someone
1:53:35
that I think was probably destined
1:53:37
to become famous in the Star and got there.
1:53:40
And I think that ultimately
1:53:42
with New York, what you
1:53:45
have is someone who usurped
1:53:47
even Flavor and
1:53:50
she I think is omar Rosa esque
1:53:52
in this fashion, because I believe that by the time
1:53:54
omar Rosa is dead, she'll be more famous in Villainous
1:53:56
than Donald too. I have. I
1:53:58
want to That's an amazing, amazing prediction. I
1:54:00
want to see really quickly that New York. I mean all a Flavor
1:54:03
of Love seasons wanted to fill
1:54:05
the transphobic you know, insult you look
1:54:07
like a man. You look like man. Even New York at
1:54:09
some points was was saying this to people. Pumpkin
1:54:12
Um not excluded, but the season
1:54:14
two reunion of Flavor of Love, New
1:54:16
York shows up your Boots,
1:54:19
Buck, wild Um and Delicious
1:54:21
all going crazy as
1:54:23
soon as they see New York at the reunion, and then Boots
1:54:26
especially being like screaming
1:54:29
at New York, you look like a drag queen. You look like
1:54:32
a drag queen. Instead of being offended,
1:54:34
New York goes yes, and It's fabulous,
1:54:37
embraces it. Yes and it's
1:54:39
fabulous, does not like see it as a queer
1:54:42
queer was like yes, and and and It's fabulous.
1:54:45
Queer icon erect a statue of New
1:54:47
York in front of stone Wall. Thank you, and
1:54:49
now for the last one
1:54:51
for this episode number twenty six, Assa
1:54:54
Edwards versus shut
1:54:57
Up and Drive. To shut up and drive
1:54:59
and and to know that they both
1:55:02
won the lip sync at the end after truly deserving
1:55:05
to the look on Tatiana's face and she realized
1:55:07
that she wanted to look on and they
1:55:09
realized they both want to look one's face. The look on
1:55:11
Fifie's face, the face crack. Honestly,
1:55:15
this was a moment in time. It was two queens
1:55:18
who were going for it out of the joy
1:55:20
of being dragged. Means they both had nothing to lose.
1:55:22
Flips kicks, twirls. Hair.
1:55:25
There was so much good hair in that performance. I
1:55:27
think one of the best lip syncs of all
1:55:29
time because he had Tatiana in the white get
1:55:32
up and illicit and like the black version with the similar
1:55:34
hair. Visual opposites, visual opposites,
1:55:36
and then they both got brought
1:55:38
back into the competition. It was so satisfying.
1:55:41
And to have Fifi leave, to have them both vote
1:55:43
for Fifi unbelievable. When
1:55:45
All Stars was All Stars. Oh
1:55:47
my god, that is the lip sync to show someone.
1:55:50
If you want to show someone how a lip sync is
1:55:52
turned on, that is the one
1:55:54
to do. Okay. So that is part
1:55:56
two of Spectacular
1:56:00
Tops in culture
1:56:02
History. Parentheses are two. Part
1:56:05
two. There will be a part three, which
1:56:07
was a twist that was even revealed to us during the
1:56:09
episode. And how
1:56:11
are you feeling about it? I think we're gonna have a conversation
1:56:14
with um head of Content
1:56:16
Haunts executive producer Anna Engineer Doug
1:56:18
about scheduling. You know, I did
1:56:21
not anticipate a third part to this. I
1:56:23
mean I didn't think I thought we'd get all this stunnen
1:56:25
in one episode. Do you remember the days, Remember
1:56:29
the days of us thinking we could fly through this in one episode,
1:56:31
but we're just too chatter boxing in Oh
1:56:33
my God. By the time this is over, it will be on Iconic
1:56:35
Feed. And now I think that when we have the twenty
1:56:38
five in their own episode, we can spend my time. And
1:56:41
it's about the readers. It's about the readers, five
1:56:44
divided by one twenty. Let's say that's a that's
1:56:46
a two hour episode. That is okay,
1:56:48
Like I can't do the math right now, but let's
1:56:50
just this. This is what has not changed.
1:56:53
Number one is number one is still
1:56:55
number one reason And we're gonna look at
1:56:57
the list and we're gonna see if every thing
1:57:00
is in its right place. Yes, because actually
1:57:02
it's it's actually a kind of iconic what can happen.
1:57:04
Things can be nothing can be taken from,
1:57:08
but things from the top twenty five can change and
1:57:10
can be even taken out and new things
1:57:12
at it in Yeah, and you'd be surprised
1:57:14
how much you forget. And that's actually culture, it's
1:57:17
ruler culture number six. You'd be surprised
1:57:19
how much do you forget? I
1:57:21
can't wait. I'm honestly very
1:57:24
happy you made this call. I should never doubt your judgment.
1:57:26
This is gonna be huge. And before the
1:57:28
clock stike strikes two hours, we're going to finish
1:57:31
out with a song and we're gonna see you tomorrow. And
1:57:33
that song is I
1:57:36
Get you Away You want to go? You
1:57:38
know what I mean, I gotta rad.
1:57:40
That's more than a limousine
1:57:43
got my hell got go
1:57:50
from zero sixty three
1:57:52
point that baby, you got the key.
1:57:56
