Look man, oh I see you?

0:03

Why why? And look over there?

0:05

How is that ulture? Yes? Goodness,

0:11

last culture just calling and

0:14

rain on us more

0:16

like not even just me, because

0:18

we're both in the same room, and if a cloud

0:21

came and rained on us, it would have a very hard time

0:23

doing so. Every part

0:25

of that statement is so accurate. Wait

0:27

did you say that? Did you just reveal that we were in

0:29

the same room? I revealed, I went ahead and revealed.

0:32

Was that? Okay? No, that's okay. I just I took

0:34

my headphones off. Um,

0:36

are you going to take yours off too? I'm also taking mind

0:38

off because we can, I can put am I

0:40

making you feel self conscious? No? No No, no, no no, It was just so

0:43

basically for all the readers at home, we're kind of

0:46

re establishing what it

0:48

means to record a podcast in the same room

0:50

again, you know what I mean? And so that

0:52

means many things. It means certain audio

0:54

has to get figured out, and we are just mere

0:57

mortals here. We don't really know what we're doing. Is

1:01

let me ask you something? Did it? It started to feel

1:03

like the new normal that we were recording on Zoom,

1:05

wasn't it? It It started to feel like the new normal and also,

1:07

to be honest with you, I felt like the guests

1:10

that we were getting were extreme because

1:13

through very much

1:16

so like I will, then I thought

1:18

to myself, like, okay, so the quarantine

1:20

right, the fact that it happened

1:23

got us into survivor, and

1:25

then that's what got us part and we would

1:27

not have been able to have part if it weren't

1:29

for COVID. I'm not saying

1:31

I'm happy COVID happened at all. You're

1:34

not. You're not like Jennifer Aniston, that Hollywood reporter

1:36

around table who was like, you know, COVID is actually a blessing

1:38

and then and then it was like

1:40

it was community, yeah,

1:43

and it was basically I'm not Jennifer Anniston

1:45

right now. I am, however, saying that

1:48

I am happy that we were able

1:50

to have the kind of guests that we've had,

1:53

which because we felt unmoored by the

1:55

location of it all right, and

1:57

it was like we only have to be

1:59

in the same time, in the same not even the same place.

2:01

We just have to be together at the same time. We just have to exist

2:04

in the same world with internet really to

2:06

get anyone we want, and we've asked some asks,

2:09

we've had some masks. We've put some masks out, that's

2:11

true. Um. Anyway, readers,

2:14

I'm in l A. Now. This is a very long

2:16

standing plan since March. Study

2:19

and I we're gonna fly out here anyway.

2:21

I'm in Los Angeles now for a little bit.

2:24

This is a long standing plan. We're

2:27

taking every precaution we can. Isn't that right.

2:29

Let's just say that Bone and I are seated across

2:31

the room from each other, and it's very

2:34

um, sort of the fifties shades of gray

2:36

boardroom scene where we are very much negotiating

2:39

with each other from across the room and it

2:41

is dimly lit and the stakes are high.

2:43

It's very power

2:45

couple. Web series story Matt Rogers and Study Green

2:47

to Peter Kelly the Britain episode,

2:50

which was modeled after that fifties shades scene.

2:52

Now this is what it is. Thank you for that

2:54

shout out to my work. It's wonderful.

2:58

Um. You and I are Chloe and

3:01

Holle and we're we're in the tennis courts

3:03

shooting our music videos. Wow,

3:05

we are very Chloe and Hell Chloe. Can

3:08

I say, like out loud right now that we are the Chloe

3:10

and Hollye of podcasting, and

3:13

this is and that we were influenced by Beyonce

3:16

and ye are a duo.

3:18

We were influenced by Beyonce. We were raptured

3:22

by a larger corporate structure also

3:24

known as I Heart, also known as

3:27

um Well, Will Ferrells are Beyonce. Will

3:29

Ferrells really our Beyonce. And also we should say

3:31

that, um, while is

3:34

it Chloe or Halley that is in Little Mermaid,

3:36

It's it's Hallian Calle is it in Little

3:38

Mermaid? And we aspire to be in Little

3:40

Mermaid as Flotsam and jetson. So

3:42

there is like a familial thing here. We

3:44

are all sisters. And

3:47

I am so happy that my sister is here in

3:49

Los Angeles with me because I

3:51

can better take care of her and she

3:53

me, and also we can do things like this

3:56

very fun episode because I don't

3:58

know if you know, and I know

4:00

that you know. But that's the way I can transition

4:02

into saying it's actually

4:04

our two hundredth episode of Lost Cultures,

4:08

and there's I mean, let's do the math. Two

4:10

hundred times one point five. That's three

4:12

hundred hours on average

4:15

of us talking, hundreds

4:17

of hours of us out there shooting

4:20

the absolute shit, saying

4:22

really crazy things. And that's

4:24

the thing is, it's like people

4:26

who are like I'm starting the podcast from the beginning,

4:29

I'm like, oh, bitch, to

4:31

be a journey. You're gonna hear us talking about

4:33

how we can't wait for Hillary Clinton to win the damn

4:36

president thing. Let's just say we, like

4:38

the rest of the world, from March two thousand sixteen

4:40

to November sixteen, were quite confident

4:43

and now it'll it

4:46

is like kind of crazy to think, like, um,

4:49

how far not only like the podcast

4:51

has come, but also the world has come and we've

4:54

come individually, but also that we started

4:56

this in a different world climate.

4:59

Yeah, like in almost

5:01

every way. I mean yeah,

5:04

And look now you and I are both

5:07

completely radicalized, and

5:10

um, we're radical girl, We're radical

5:12

girls. We embrace the radicality. Let

5:16

me just say, Matt Rodgers just mixed

5:19

to me the strongest vodka Red

5:21

Bull I've ever had, and it's such a tall,

5:23

tall tumbler. Well there's

5:25

two shots in it too, full shot

5:27

girl. I have not had a full on cocktail in

5:29

like a month. Well, this is part of

5:32

the new normal, which is we have to find a way

5:34

to drink too much, even though we're not

5:36

going out, and this is just gonna be like, I'm

5:38

excited that Boonen is here. It's

5:41

our two hundred episode. I mixed us a little

5:43

celebratory cocktail, and I'm very

5:45

excited about it because this is not just the two

5:47

episode. We've actually prepared, which

5:50

we do not often do for

5:52

last reasons. We have prepared

5:54

a list and it's

5:57

it's actually real culture number thirteen. Culture

6:00

is lists absolutely

6:04

and Bowen what is this list? So

6:06

it's our two hundredth episode of Lost Cultures,

6:08

just not counting those little, you know, ad swamps

6:11

where we just do a little fifteen minute episode where

6:13

we show you a preview of a Jaws theme podcast

6:15

or whatever, the standalone

6:18

episode. So in honor of this, we

6:22

have prepared a list of the

6:24

top two hundred moments in culture

6:26

history. These are the top two

6:29

hundred moments that have happened

6:31

in culture history, as

6:33

decided by Matt Rogers and Bowen

6:36

Lost Culture Estes. We are a

6:38

little bit drunk, but we feel

6:40

very confident about

6:43

what we've put on the list, that this is a

6:45

definitive list that is empirically

6:47

ordered. I would say, um,

6:50

every spot on this

6:52

list. Uh is

6:54

a huge deal. It's culture. It's

6:56

it's something that shaped the culture in a positive

6:58

way from the beginning of recorded

7:01

history. Yes, from our viewpoint,

7:04

which is the empirical objective

7:06

viewpoint, because I actually remember the first

7:08

episode of Last Cultures and we're calling all the

7:10

way back, we did say it. If

7:12

we say it on this podcast, it is

7:15

cannon. Did we say this, Yes, we

7:17

we said we are the Lost cultures. Does I

7:19

means we are the arbiters of culture

7:21

and taste? Yes, I

7:24

mean we We really evolved over the course

7:26

of that first episode where we started out.

7:28

I do believe we started out by saying we're the arbiter

7:30

where the consultants of culture, culture

7:32

consultants, which is not a phrase we have said since,

7:35

not since, but I really want to harken

7:37

back to that sort of um

7:39

that ethos and then and then by

7:42

the end of the episode, I guess we said that anything

7:44

that we say is canon. Yeah. Well, even

7:47

if it wasn't said, I'm saying we said.

7:49

And what's important is that we

7:52

as culture consultants have consulted

7:54

with each other. And I don't

7:56

trust anyone as much as I

7:58

don't trust anyone as much as Matt ros and you know

8:00

that I've been I have not been blowing smoke up You're

8:02

asked these last couple of days since I've seen you in

8:05

person, I was like, Matt Rodgers, He's he's

8:07

he's he's the one, He's the culture Maven

8:10

Well, and we know that Bowen Yang has,

8:13

you know, not only created culture in his

8:15

own right, but he is one

8:17

of the refined minds of our generations.

8:19

And this is us sitting in my apartment absolutely

8:23

blowing smoke off each other's but holes

8:25

tight or otherwise, hight or otherwise.

8:27

And I have to say we have raised

8:30

our drinks. And this is also going out to not

8:32

only just our incredible

8:34

team at my heart, but also shout out to Forever

8:37

Dogs. Forever Dog. Shout out to Yes

8:39

Go gave us our start and allowed

8:42

us to do exactly what we wanted to do.

8:44

Shout out to every single guest

8:47

we have had on the podcast, thank

8:49

you, and what else. Anyone that's come

8:51

to our live shows I don't think so honey live,

8:54

anyone that's bought a ticket, anyone who's

8:56

performed for that matter, performed for that

8:58

show. And so we

9:01

have to say to all the

9:03

readers, thank you,

9:05

bitch for listening to last culture

9:08

reasons, whether you're a recent person

9:10

who started listening or you've been here from the very beginning.

9:12

I remember we used to look at our listener account

9:15

and be like, oh my god, sixty two people listen.

9:17

Remember that. I remember

9:19

the day that we broke three digits, three

9:21

figures, and that was a big day. I

9:23

think it was on the Aaron Jackson and Josh

9:25

Haarp episode, the first And they'll be back, and they'll

9:27

be back back. But

9:30

suffices to say, we have accrued

9:32

much knowledge over these years during the podcast,

9:34

and we came in with our inherited

9:36

knowledge is as homosexual gay

9:38

man, and we have put

9:41

together this list. Now. Matt alluded

9:43

to earlier that we consulted with each other on

9:45

this list, and that is true. We there

9:47

were a couple of points of contention on this list.

9:50

I wanted to take some stuff off. I wanted to add some

9:52

stuff in. Matt said, no, we're keeping that note. We're

9:54

we're not putting that in. Although I will

9:56

say ultimately this was a pretty We only

9:59

disagreed about two or items and like pretty

10:01

much the rest of it is. Of course, but

10:03

I'm saying this is a collaborative

10:05

effort. This is an effort that we had

10:07

to, yes, kind of watch

10:10

ourselves on on an individual level and be like, actually,

10:12

know if this is not important to me, this is important

10:14

to him, or it's important to me and not to him, And I'm gonna fight for

10:16

its importance. This is a

10:19

beautiful list. I think it's some of our best work. I

10:21

think it's some of our best work. And I think that everything

10:23

here has a place here and belongs here. And

10:25

I am excited to start

10:28

the list mailing of the top

10:30

two moments in pop culture

10:32

history. Yes, okay, let's

10:35

begin with the very first thing we have to say.

10:37

There is an honorable mention on the list.

10:39

Honorable mentions. She did not make the cut.

10:41

She almost made the cut Ladies and Gentlemen

10:43

number two hundred and one, but doesn't really get

10:45

a number because she did not make the list. It is

10:48

Nicole Singer,

10:50

give it up. I mean, I was listening to

10:52

react today. What a

10:54

comeback single, great comeback single. And you know,

10:56

I've really respected her since buttons absolute

11:00

Louis and you've you've had

11:02

to respect her at some point, especially

11:05

when she was Andrew lod Webber's

11:07

firstwhile news and then they felt that they had

11:09

a falling out. Well they you know, they had a falling out

11:11

because she wanted to do The X Factor in the UK

11:13

because she is famously an international

11:16

talent show judge and we respect

11:18

that, and you respect her because she's

11:20

an international talent show judge. And

11:23

she also can turn on

11:25

musical theater. Yeah, oh

11:27

yeah. And the voice you can't, you can't,

11:29

you just can't beat it. I mean, her performance of Don't Cry

11:32

for Me Argentina was absolutely

11:34

amazing. And Andrew load Webber famously said,

11:36

I mean the way she acted that amazing

11:39

and she's incredible. But she did not she did

11:42

not make the list. But let's not get going. Let's get

11:44

started unless we have to blow past a lot of these

11:46

items. But let's start with number two hundred. Let's

11:48

say together for all of these number two hundred,

11:50

when when Brittany said good

11:53

Morning America. When

11:55

Brittany came out and said good morning America in

11:57

that voice, I mean I think that we all knew she

11:59

was bad. She knew she was

12:01

back promoting her new lead single

12:04

against Me, good

12:06

Morning America. And I promise

12:09

you it'll be a morning to remember, see

12:11

you soon that you

12:14

know, and then the transition into would you hold

12:16

it against me? I mean there

12:18

there has a lot that can be said

12:21

about Britney Spears. She is a revolutionary

12:23

pop star. But when she came out

12:25

and said good Morning America, I

12:27

feel that America really woke up. She

12:29

had just I

12:31

mean it sounds like from her for the timber of

12:33

her voice, it sounds like she had just swan

12:36

dived into a pool, got a little

12:39

flemmy in the nose and in the sinus. And

12:41

then there was Brittany, you have to shoot your good Morning America

12:43

promo right now. I mean it sounded like

12:46

like a cartoonishly big hammer hit her

12:48

right in the nose and broke it. I mean like, honestly,

12:50

it was. We will never get answers

12:52

really as to why it was the way it was, but

12:55

I can say what answer to your question? Was this

12:57

iconic? Yes? It was number two hundred

13:00

on our list. Yes, let's move on to number is

13:03

TL video.

13:07

This was an amazing video, an amazing

13:09

song that was later covered by Glee stars

13:12

Lea Michelle, Lea Michelle and I believe

13:14

Diana Agron Diana when they did

13:16

I'm Pretty mashed up with I Feel

13:18

Pretty from West Side Story iconic mash up.

13:21

But of course we have to go back to the source,

13:23

and that was the Unpretty video

13:25

which started t Buzz, Chili and

13:27

left Ie in some sort of future, some like

13:30

sort of floating den. There was very

13:32

much their vibe. It was off of fan mail,

13:34

and of course we remember the theme was like Y two

13:37

K digital and it's

13:39

the video is sort of interspersed with cuts

13:41

to a bunch of monitors

13:43

that say things like probe searching

13:46

or digital search

13:48

or these very new concepts at the time,

13:51

Like computers were huge at this time, and

13:53

so what they did was they blended

13:55

the idea of computers with the idea

13:57

of and

13:59

so they took those two things and put them together.

14:02

And honestly, this is an absolute

14:04

bob of a song. Its lyrics are beautiful

14:06

and the video took it to the next level. You got acting

14:09

from the girls and I love it when to pop star acts

14:12

and we can't have tlc araser no

14:14

no no, I mean, and we

14:16

can't have a raiser over the fact that t Bas

14:19

went on Celebrity Apprentice and was and

14:22

had to make an impression for our current president.

14:24

Isn't that crazy? Oh my god, to think

14:26

that these celebrities had to dance, and to think

14:28

that t Bas had something like unpretty

14:30

inside her and she had to like bow down

14:33

to Trump. No, like please, Trump needs to

14:35

have some respect for t Bas and

14:37

by extension, Chili and left Ie, who

14:39

we say, rest in peace. Left Eye, you are

14:41

amazing in an icon. You're amazing in an nicon.

14:43

What's the next one, man? Well, the next one hundred.

14:46

Number one on our Top two hundred

14:48

Items and Culture list is the

14:50

Austin Powers Trilogy

14:53

starring Mike Myers. I think we

14:55

can say this was an incredible character, an incredible

14:58

character for Mike Myers. What to be a well and

15:00

you cannot to speak that it was a trilogy.

15:02

Oh no, There were three films in this

15:04

series, which makes it a trilogy by definition.

15:07

And to think of the characters that were born

15:09

not just from one film, but two and three

15:12

films. You had Fat Bastard

15:14

played by Mike Meyers, Mike, you had gold

15:16

Member played by Mike Myers.

15:19

You had Seth Green Scotty,

15:21

you had Seth Green a Scotty. I mean,

15:23

also, never forget probably the iconic

15:26

character from it all is not even Austin, But I would

15:28

say Dr Evil. Dr Evil played by

15:30

Mike Myers play and to think he is

15:32

out there playing multiple characters, this obviously as

15:34

an actor who has been involved in sketches,

15:37

and we know that from his origins

15:39

at a Saturday night, Yes, which puts

15:41

him in the family. Which puts him in the family, you know.

15:44

And many people say Dr Evil is based on

15:46

Mr Lorne Michaels can confirm, can

15:49

neither confirm nor didn't? You have to wow?

15:53

Okay? And also we have to shout out the amazing

15:55

women of the franchise. I'm talking about

15:57

Elizabeth Hurley there and

16:00

Beyonce Knowles Carter. The fear

16:03

in Bowen's eyes as he checked in with me that it was

16:05

in fact Heather ground it was. I was sure that it was

16:07

Heather. I wasn't sure if you, like had

16:09

had left Heather Graham's mind behind back in

16:11

two thousand three. Excuse

16:13

me, this is the hangover rature.

16:17

She had to come back, her incredible performance,

16:19

her incredible versatile performance of performance

16:22

in the Hangover and empowered performance. And I

16:24

think we can all agree that Austin powers

16:26

was comedically a formidable

16:29

trilogy when and it's

16:31

time. I'm saying you and I have talked

16:33

about how I mean, I love Austin

16:35

powers me too. It's I'm not

16:38

lying, and I wanted to do a fourth is our energy

16:40

mannic Right now, I am is

16:43

hitting me sideways,

16:45

it's fucking me sideways, and I am

16:48

who maybe that someone's

16:50

getting sideways. I'm amped, I'm not. Let's

16:52

talk about Can we talk about something? What did

16:54

the math? I have not had sex since December?

16:57

You did? For a second, I thought

16:59

you said I did meth. I

17:02

said I didn't have math, and you have had

17:04

sex since when I did meth? And I did the

17:06

math and I have not had sex since December.

17:10

We don't have to we can cut this. That's six months.

17:13

Yeah, and we're not going to bitch

17:15

bitch, Well, we'll have to find

17:17

someone who's COVID free in Los Angeles for

17:20

you. I I literally implore, like,

17:22

it's going to be such a fabulous

17:24

experience for the person fucking

17:27

you end for you to have sex, so

17:29

much pressure on them and on it doesn't need

17:31

to be a lot of pressure, and you know what, it should be fun. It's actually

17:33

real culture number eleven sex should

17:35

be five. We are minutes into

17:38

this episode, SIPs into

17:40

our drinks and a hundred ninety

17:42

seven away from our top number one

17:44

moment and culture. So our number

17:46

one nine seven moment of

17:48

culture is ocean expedition

17:52

slash exploring of our

17:54

world. See that you put this

17:56

in explain this. I think that once

17:58

we just once we just of her, that we could go

18:01

into the ocean and discover the bottom

18:03

of the seas. That opened

18:05

the door to so much culture Because

18:07

think about all the culture we would not have if

18:10

we hadn't been able to explore the seas

18:12

of the world. You know, Titanic, which we're going

18:14

to touch on later, we would never

18:16

have Titanic fever finding Dory, That's

18:19

what I'm saying. Finding Dory and also finding Nemo

18:21

we have. There are so many things

18:23

that are happening in the ocean that we needed.

18:25

We required scientists to have the

18:27

technology to go around the ocean to discover.

18:30

Do you have any oceanographers marine biologists

18:33

that you want to shout out right now? Yes, I would

18:35

love to shout out Miss Frizzle who

18:37

got in her Um. Of course,

18:39

magic school Bus, which was famously was magic

18:42

and dove to the bottom of the sea.

18:44

And we should say, right now, as I shout her

18:46

out, miss Frazzle did not make the top

18:48

two hundred items. They're sorry we

18:51

apolished her. Not that she didn't even in, but she just

18:53

wasn't one of the top two hundred. She and

18:56

like we're not talking about her like I I did not.

18:59

I have not thought of his first and so long, and

19:01

I can't say that I have either. It took you to bring

19:03

her up for me to remember who she was. What is

19:05

your favorite moment in ocean history.

19:08

I think my favorite moment in ocean history was

19:10

when I mean, we're to

19:12

talk about it later. So I don't want to

19:14

sort of shoot my load as it below

19:17

the load, my load as it were. Um.

19:20

But you know, just even the beginning of Titanic, I

19:22

remember as a kid, when they were going down

19:24

into the rusty rest of the ship. I

19:26

was like, there's something about this that I left. I

19:28

want to be down there. I want to I want to dig up the little

19:31

things from the fireplace. And

19:33

there's something there's something so great about

19:35

that, and it just made me, you know, if if

19:37

Titanic, if I followed that thread

19:40

a little bit more. If I pulled on that a little bit more, I

19:42

might have been, you know, the submarine biologist,

19:45

you know who Bill Paxiston in that movie. I would

19:47

have been like you might have been like Bill Paxiston in that movie.

19:49

I've been able to discover many things. But we're

19:51

an earring. He didn't ear piercing, remember exactly.

19:54

He did in a shaggy haircut, and they

19:56

cut a plot line where he fucked Susie

19:58

Amos, who became James Cameron's But

20:00

listen to stay tuned.

20:02

You're gonna have to stay tuned on that one, because

20:05

let's just say that we may not be done with Titanic

20:07

Fever, sir. Not Okay,

20:09

okay, next one, This next one

20:11

is an It's Will

20:14

Smith as a rap pop

20:17

star who could forget. But

20:19

you think there's a world

20:21

where he was a pop star. He was a popular

20:23

rap artist. I would go

20:26

so far as to say that his rap was

20:28

more pop music than it was like hard

20:31

rap music. Not that rap music has

20:33

to be hard, but obviously it got more play

20:36

on pop radio than it did probably

20:38

on urban radio. I don't know. I don't have those facts

20:40

and fingers in front of me. But I think, you

20:42

know, when someone like Will Smith is singing

20:45

songs like the Wild Wild West is singing

20:47

songs like Men in Black is singing songs

20:49

like with It, you know, I'm

20:51

thinking, this is someone who's appearing on pop radio

20:54

with a pop sensibility. And he did really

20:56

have an impact. He had a huge impact,

20:58

I would say. I remember, I

21:01

really did feel something. I never ended

21:03

up seeing the movie, but when the Wildlad

21:05

West trailer played on TV, I

21:08

was like, there's something so cool about

21:10

this and

21:13

and wait, this is a Stevie Wonder song, Like you

21:15

know, it just opened a lot of doors for me. Culturally.

21:17

Well, I'm telling you what you missed out

21:20

on was some iconic Salamahayak

21:22

culture because she is, of course the female

21:24

lead in that little film, and

21:27

there's great performances in it. It's a silly,

21:29

silly movie, and you do see a little Will Smith.

21:31

But in it, who

21:34

who could dispute that? Who could who who

21:36

could resist that? No one could

21:38

resist, especially at that time Will Smith was

21:40

a movie star and a music star, which gets lost

21:42

gets lost? And this is the moment in

21:45

culture that we wanted to sort of canonize

21:47

in the list right. I wouldn't say anything

21:49

else that he's done is worth mentioning

21:52

on this list. Just him as a rap slash pop

21:54

star, his musical remember, just the two

21:57

of us. Oh my god, get

21:59

out of here, two of us. We

22:02

can make it. Which iconic

22:06

culture speaking

22:08

of iconic musical culture, bowing this

22:10

one? Number one is the

22:13

boy is Mine? It

22:16

just it

22:19

still holds up in a way that is that Not

22:21

a lot of culture does that

22:23

opening that dialogue? I mean what

22:25

other songs have dialogue to

22:27

open them? I mean none like this.

22:30

What we get is a full scene with

22:32

the two young women, of course, I'm

22:34

speaking of Brandy and Monica. And

22:37

would we be able to do the dialogue right now? Absolutely?

22:40

Um? Okay, you're that's

22:44

how that's how we identify. Okay, go excuse

22:46

me. Can I please talk to you for a minute? Mm

22:49

hmm sure. You know you

22:51

look kind of familiar. Yeah you do too,

22:54

But um, I just wanted to know. I want to I want

22:56

to know, do you know somebody name? You

22:59

know his name? Oh? Yeah, definitely,

23:01

I know his name. Well, I just want to let you know that

23:03

he's mine. No,

23:05

no, he is mine. I have a question to ask

23:07

you where do you think they were

23:09

in that scene? What's the place? Because I

23:12

have a clear answer from the very first moment

23:14

I heard this as a child, I have a clear answer

23:16

of where they were. Okay, I'm

23:18

gonna say they're at a public pool.

23:20

Okay, that's cool. As

23:22

an I was in elementary school at the time, and so

23:25

for me, like the social hub in elementary

23:27

school is the cafeteria. Even though

23:29

so even though these were women in their late teen slash

23:31

early twenties UM

23:34

at the time of recording, I imagine them to be

23:36

in a cafeteria setting of some source. So you

23:38

did see them in sort of like a high school vibe.

23:40

I thought it was high school, but even like, more specifically

23:42

spatially, it was in the cafeteria of

23:45

my elementary school in Montreal at

23:47

the time. I get it. So I

23:49

think for me, I kind of I associate

23:51

this as being like a summer jam. Yes,

23:53

and I think I saw like a pool,

23:56

yeah, a pool because it was a summer

23:58

and also just like

24:01

them, sort of being at

24:03

a place where one could be with their group of friends

24:06

and another could be with their group of friends

24:08

and where does that happen? But

24:11

I haven't thought about it until this moment.

24:14

That's isn't an interesting question to ask. So ask

24:16

yourself, reader, where when

24:18

you first listen to The Boy's Mind? Where did you

24:20

think that Brandy and Monica were in the beginning?

24:23

And also, any any song,

24:25

any song that you hear, think, where

24:28

is this happening there? It's

24:30

it's actually a really culture number thirty. Any

24:32

song that you think,

24:36

where is this happening? Like on

24:38

the album Chromatica. We can imagine

24:40

that a lot of those songs are taking place on Chromatica.

24:43

Yes, but the geopolitical

24:46

thoughts around music I think are left out

24:48

of the conversation right exactly. And you know, speaking

24:50

of geopolitical thoughts, we

24:52

are going to move along to um

24:56

so so much so such

24:58

a mind went into the creation of this movie.

25:00

But we're not talking about the writing of the movie.

25:02

We're talking about a specific performance in the movie.

25:04

One four on our top two hundred

25:07

is Rooney Mara in

25:09

The Social Network. Now,

25:11

why is this culturally important? Bow she

25:14

is in that, the character of Erica in

25:16

The Social Network, Mark Zuckerberg's fictional

25:19

perhaps former girlfriend, is

25:21

in I want to say, three scenes in the

25:23

entire movie. But she makes an impact

25:25

I mean she sets up the flaw

25:28

of Mark Zuckerberg, which is that he is huboristic

25:31

and whatever only is concerned

25:33

about being cool, and she

25:35

delivers iconic lines such as because I watched

25:37

this movie the other night with my parents. It's on Netflix,

25:40

and they loved it. They were like, Mark Zuckerberg is like this. I was

25:42

like, yes, according to Erin's workin

25:44

but the line the

25:47

girls aren't going to not like you because you're a nerd.

25:49

They're not going to like you because and

25:51

then the Internet is not written in pencil.

25:54

I think it's written in ink. I mean,

25:57

she is really good at this, and

25:59

I would say it's a

26:01

tone setting for a fabulous

26:04

movie. And also it kind of

26:06

like did give birth to Rooney Mara David

26:09

Finch rom Use because then she

26:11

was famously she

26:13

was Lizabeth Salander and she was famously on The Girl with the

26:15

Dragon Tattoo, which got her an Oscar nomination, And would

26:18

she have done that had she not slaid so hard

26:20

in the social network? Also iconic

26:22

be you representation, and there's

26:24

not enough. There's not enough. We

26:27

don't see enough be you girls in film,

26:29

and that's real culture number nine. We

26:32

don't see enough girls

26:35

in film. We're going

26:37

so slow, we're we're

26:39

only seven things.

26:41

Then we're twenty seven bits. And Hans

26:43

Hans, our producer, said, heads up for twenty seven minutes.

26:46

And well, no one asked him. Let no one asked

26:48

him, No

26:50

one is he's doing

26:52

a little cute, little um sort of smiley

26:54

face with the tongue sticking out, but no one asked him

26:57

what rule culture number I mean, this is not rutal culture.

26:59

This is moment moment Number

27:01

one is who

27:07

wants to I won

27:09

five thousand dollars and Studie Green was my

27:11

phone, my phone a friend a plus

27:13

one because they got rid of phone a friend. It

27:15

was a very much not a lucrative

27:17

moment, but it wasn't entertaining moment. And

27:20

Chris Harrison shook her hand very hard.

27:22

Chris Harrison did a Trump shake on

27:24

my hand where he shook it and pulled me into

27:26

a certain dominance over me. And you

27:28

can find it online and I am not lying, And

27:30

okay, let's move on to number snatch

27:36

game perform. Wanted you to come

27:38

up and suck me in the ass sometime. I

27:40

think the undisputed best snatch game

27:42

performance ever followed very closely

27:45

by jinx is Little

27:47

Lady. Absolutely, I would. And

27:50

really what this does, This Alaska's May

27:52

West moment on the list really

27:54

represents all snatch games because

27:56

it is a moment of culture. It's a moment of culture.

27:58

So we're moving forward. Number one on

28:01

the list of top two moments in culture history.

28:03

It's the game tag

28:06

You know what you love it? You played it likely

28:08

with many girls. They made a movie

28:11

about it. Yes, And

28:13

it's the game of when you are running around and

28:15

you tag some with your hands and

28:17

they become quote it.

28:20

Yes, it's actually real culture. Number

28:22

four, when you are tagged,

28:25

you are, you become quote unquote.

28:28

It's let's just keep going.

28:30

Number one nine The Jaws

28:33

Ride opens at Universal

28:35

Studios. Now, this was an

28:37

iconic moment in my personal culture and I think

28:40

the culture of many, which was you could board

28:42

a ship in the Universal

28:44

Studios in Amity Arbor and

28:46

that ship would be repeatedly attacked by

28:48

the villainous shark Jaws.

28:50

And how it Jaws mete its demise It would

28:53

bite onto an electrocuted wire. Well,

28:56

yes, it would bite onto the electrocuted wire

28:58

and explode in flames. It would then arrived

29:00

at the surface of the water as a charred mess,

29:02

and then it launches at the boat one final time.

29:05

The skipper shoots a shotgun that it finally

29:07

dies, and um, that is

29:09

how you survived the Menace of Jaws.

29:12

And I can say here and now it no

29:14

longer exists, but for the one

29:17

in Japan. Yes,

29:19

but you've got to go out

29:21

there in Japan if you want to ride it. Otherwise I just can't

29:23

help you. We're going to go there some day very soon.

29:25

Once say,

29:34

okay, one is Mario?

29:38

Oh my god, who hasn't played this? Hasn't

29:40

played this one? You love it? You love

29:42

it? And who are you usually when you play? I'm

29:45

usually a peach in the old school games, But in the

29:47

New School games, I like to be a warrio. I like

29:49

to be a toad At, So you

29:51

like to be a warrior on a toad at. I am always

29:53

going to be misstowed. You love mistowed.

29:56

I love toad because I feel she was

29:58

moving around the fastest. I love the

30:00

kind of sounds she made, such as this, yeah,

30:04

like I thought that that was so enthusiastic,

30:07

And I loved her her freedom. I

30:09

don't know why I'm calling could tote a female.

30:11

I don't think totally has a job miss gender

30:13

to tote is mail. You feel this one

30:15

tote is Mail. There is a famously trans character

30:18

in the Mario cannon, which is Burdo. Who

30:20

is Burdo? I would I would say, I should say Birdo is trans.

30:23

That's a real thing. Yes, she's she

30:25

was assigned Mail at birth. And

30:28

in the lore of the second Mario, like

30:30

the whole thing was bird like back

30:32

then. And this is like the rough Japanese translation,

30:34

but it was Burdo thinks he's a girl.

30:37

But then like Mario, Nintendo have like

30:39

sort of grown along with the time socially

30:41

and they're like, no, Burdo's trans is that serious?

30:44

Serious? Look it up, like, oh my god, I love that.

30:46

Moving on to one hundred, number one hundred.

30:49

It's

30:51

Vegas residence really made

30:54

being in Vegas what it is, and

30:56

she kept it for so long. She kept it going for something.

30:58

It was the double e thing to

31:00

do with your mother and when you were in Vegas.

31:03

Absolutely, and you know she's also kept

31:05

those vocals up. We can see her with that

31:07

mask on, that sort of saline mask with iconic

31:10

culture. Is that image and we have to

31:12

think Renee. We have to think Renee.

31:15

We can't really get into how it's

31:19

a little probb. It feels a little predatory

31:21

to me that Renee, you know, went after Selene,

31:24

you went there. You really we have to it's

31:27

we got to talk about these things. We love.

31:29

We love it. Selene loved him. Um,

31:32

but you know, we've got a question Renee's motives.

31:34

That's certainly an odd relationship,

31:36

but one that did stand the test of time and

31:39

um, she was with him until his dying day.

31:41

And you know, Selene, we thank you for

31:44

your incredible talent, the way you touch of the world.

31:47

And we remember Renee,

31:49

even though we have questions

31:51

about the genesis of the relationship. But that's

31:53

really none of our business, is it. French

31:56

Canadian queen, French Canadian queen. We just bring

31:58

it up. Um, We're just

32:00

bring it up. We bring it up, and

32:02

that's our roles to bring it up. Now,

32:04

bowen. One number Nadia

32:09

achieving a perfect ten

32:11

and gymnastics had never been done before,

32:14

and then she did it so many times at that Olympics.

32:16

You know she received over six top

32:19

ten score ten perfect tense. You know this

32:21

off the top of your head, I looked it up actually

32:23

today because I was thinking

32:26

about putting it on the list, and then I saw that you had

32:28

already added it, and I thought, Okay, we are simpatico

32:30

because I also just recently watched the documentary

32:33

athlete A on Netflix,

32:35

which is a startling

32:37

watch but I think an important watch,

32:40

and they talked about how Nadia was

32:43

like the prototype for

32:45

that young, young, young

32:47

girl that they created

32:50

into like an Olympics monster the

32:53

world over, because China's fucked

32:55

up with no completely fucked

32:57

and I mean the fact of the

32:59

matter is like we have to have a serious looked

33:01

at the way we are sort

33:04

of grooming these young

33:06

girls to be these these machine

33:08

athletes, because oh,

33:11

we see that in the US it kind of got a little

33:13

out of control. And by a little control, I mean a

33:15

lot out of control. The doctor was a sexual

33:17

predator. So, oh my god. But

33:20

was it an achievement that Nadia's got those tens?

33:22

Yes, when it was a moment in culture.

33:25

Let's go to one A six, what is this shell?

33:29

The shining Wow, we all remember

33:31

her running about that house with the knife.

33:33

I mean the screams, the most iconic screaming film

33:35

history. Oh, can you do it?

33:40

It's pretty good. Sorry,

33:42

Oh my god. Literally our engineer Dug

33:44

I know, his head absolutely exploded

33:47

on that one. But she was giving you and Stanley

33:49

Kubrick was I mean psychologically

33:51

torturing this poor woman. Impact

33:54

on her because Mr Vall, we hope she's doing

33:57

well now, but you know, things took a turn. I'm

34:01

those were the glory days of Shelley. But now like

34:03

she's like she was in an interview like a few

34:05

years ago, just like she's

34:07

in a bad way. She um

34:10

you know. I I think we got an

34:12

amazing performance out of her, But at what

34:14

cost? At what cost did great

34:16

culture? Let's keep going, Okay, So number

34:18

one eighty five is the

34:21

name Amanda Culture.

34:24

So there are so many millions

34:26

of women across America are named Amanda.

34:29

And this is a name that, you know, very

34:31

similar to the name Chris. I

34:33

think with men, Amanda has really taken over.

34:36

And Amanda has absolutely revolutionized

34:38

the Hollywood industry because

34:40

every publicist was named Amanda. Yes,

34:43

many managers and agents named Amanda, and

34:45

some talent named Amanda. Some talent

34:48

is named Amanda. I would say that

34:50

Amanda made a huge impact on the culture.

34:52

But not even just in showbiz. Let's not limited to show biz.

34:54

No, I would say in classroom, in elementary school,

34:57

classrooms, everywhere where, there were at least four Amanda's

34:59

in every class. Amanda. Really

35:01

when we were growing up, it really took the world by storm.

35:03

From the years nineteen eight seven to nine two,

35:06

they were approximately a billion Amanda's.

35:09

A billion Amanda's who are now in

35:11

positions of middle management and even executive

35:14

leadership. And you cannot dispute

35:16

Amanda, but you know, we don't forget the Amandas

35:18

that have been left behind, you know. And

35:20

and some Amanda's um they

35:22

feel that they must shorten their

35:25

name to Mandy, and we're thinking

35:27

of them. We're thinking of them, and we are

35:29

not going to tell you what to do either way. But you know, just

35:31

to go back to your roots. You're an Amanda. You have

35:33

our support. Number one hundred eighty four

35:35

on our top two hundred list. Dakota

35:37

Fanning sets a child actress

35:40

precedent, and it's eaten by

35:42

her own sister l Who

35:44

could forget when Dakota Fanning really

35:46

set the tone for child actresses and then was eaten

35:48

by her own sister l Fanna Yeah, what do you think

35:51

was the last great

35:53

Dakota Fanning work. I want to say it's Uptown Girls.

35:55

I was gonna say it's Uptown Girls and World

35:57

War World World, World War of the

35:59

World. Where are the roles she was? I

36:01

mean, excellent. If you can hold your own

36:03

opposite Tom Cruise, Oh my

36:06

god, you're really something. You are a real

36:08

talent if you can hold your own off against that crazy

36:11

man. But let's not forget. I mean, once

36:13

upon a time in Hollywood she played. I

36:17

didn't see this. She's phenomenal. Well,

36:19

she's an incredible talent. She's an incredible talent,

36:22

and you know that she consistently works in television.

36:24

Now on that show with um with Evans,

36:27

I watched this show. Who is like fully gay?

36:29

By the way, I didn't realize that. Oh my god.

36:31

No, he's like literally the hottest and he's

36:34

very gay on his Instagram And he said this

36:36

thing on Pride where he posed his boyfriend,

36:38

and I didn't realize he had come out. And then I realized

36:40

maybe he never did, which I love, which,

36:43

oh god, he didn't have to publicize it too much.

36:45

Oh, here we go. Someone wrote the

36:48

alienist Angel of Darkness so

36:51

what we've got here is Hans

36:53

has come in and a huge bold made

36:55

us know that the series

36:57

that's a coded Fanning is in is called the Alienist.

37:00

But we of course remember her best from her incredible

37:02

form performances in Uptown

37:04

Girls. I Am Sam, I Am

37:06

Sam. Member of that movie.

37:08

She did this scary movie with Robert de Niro,

37:11

Hide and Seek, that was shocking,

37:14

shocking. Wait, we have to talk about L. We're

37:16

ignoring the l of it all and she completely

37:18

ate her own sister. I mean L came

37:20

in and was in Maleficent one end two.

37:23

L was coming in as a child actress, and she was more of a

37:25

teen like now

37:28

she's in the Great getting amazing notices,

37:31

but like Super eight into into

37:35

Um. She was a kid in super She was

37:37

a kid in super Ate at that UM that that movie, that Sofia

37:40

couple of movie. She

37:43

was incredible and the Begot very funny, very

37:45

funny. In the Beguild. She's really come

37:47

out and also twenty century women don't

37:49

forget women. She's so good. She's

37:51

got the damn resume and Dakota used

37:53

to have the resume. But that's what happens when you said a precedent

37:56

is your own sister might eat you. But we're saying

37:58

that Dakota is still very much

38:00

established and working on very good projects.

38:02

She is a gold standard. She's just not sort

38:04

of um. She couldn't have stayed a child forever.

38:07

Yeah, I mean, well, you know, I hope that she comes

38:09

back with an adult role. Yes, okay,

38:14

So when number one is the Real

38:16

House of Pa.

38:19

You've got Karen, You've got Hug,

38:22

You've got Giselle. Oh

38:26

oh, We've got an amazing cast, and also real

38:29

drama, real steaks, and

38:31

honestly, the other franchises need to take a page

38:33

out of the Potomac book. Scale it back,

38:36

get human drama, real drama, and

38:38

honestly, we need a full reboot

38:40

of these other franchises. And I'm not

38:42

afraid to say it on this podcast. Nothing

38:45

is doing what Potomac is doing, and for that

38:47

it gets listed on our Number

38:51

three on top two hundred moments

38:53

of culture history is

38:55

the is the cocktail hitting you? Yes?

38:58

Number one two is Rosie

39:01

Perez dancing

39:04

the right on this specifically

39:07

in the opening credits, to do the right thing. Obviously a huge

39:09

movie seminal movie one of Spike Lee's best

39:11

works. But Rosie Perez Dancing

39:13

to Fight the Power Um huge.

39:16

I mean what a huge moments, sexual, powerful,

39:18

political, all at once. And you couldn't

39:21

have had it with anyone else but Mrs Rosie

39:23

Perez, who went on to do great things and she

39:25

was an Oscar nominee for the film Fearless and

39:27

we respect. Number one eight

39:30

one is Adam Lambert

39:32

and Clay a a K. Lambert

39:35

and claymate culture a

39:38

k a. Middle aged women

39:40

love. I think enough has been

39:42

said about that, and we speak for

39:44

itself. Number one Jane

39:48

Workouts because she's

39:50

most commonly I think known as an actress

39:53

and an activist, but we know her primarily

39:56

as a bund of steel queen, a

39:58

woman in five acts, a woman with

40:01

buns of steel. Oh please, revolutionizing

40:06

the way white women got

40:08

their skinny little tight booties.

40:11

Yes, and it was a revolution.

40:14

It was not televised,

40:16

but on tape. Oh, the revolution

40:18

will be on tape. It's actually a real culture. Number two

40:20

hundred, The revolution will

40:22

be on tape if Jan

40:24

Fonda had anything to

40:27

say about it is

40:29

the second half of Gone

40:32

Girl, the book Girl,

40:34

When You, When You, when that twist hit you, that

40:36

she was still alive. Spoiler alert, I've

40:39

never had more fun while the cool girl monologue,

40:42

Oh that was writing. Thank

40:44

you, Gillian flanned you served

40:46

it up on that one. Thank you, and

40:50

and Viv getting recast

40:53

on Fresh Friends. Now, why did this

40:55

happen? And why is it important that we comment on

40:57

it? And you know there's no time

41:00

we're gonna move on to one hundred seventy

41:02

seven, number one seventies seven

41:05

Emily Blond take out

41:07

work. And this

41:10

was Emily Blonde absolutely entering

41:12

the main stage and you were

41:14

like, who is this woman? Is she really British because she's

41:16

laying on this accent and thick But then you find out, oh, she

41:19

really is British. But the moments in

41:21

that movie I love my job, I love my job,

41:23

I joined job. And also you

41:25

can never forget only one stomach flew

41:27

away from my goal weight. I

41:30

have patrick amazing,

41:32

unbelievable. I mean, listen, Emily

41:35

Blonde. We have her today because of her

41:37

Golden Globe nominated work of the Divorce

41:39

Product and we hashtag stam

41:42

to wait before we move on. Remember when her

41:44

and Anne Hathaway president of the Oscars for

41:46

Mayor all that year and it was a whole bit and it was

41:48

like funnier than any

41:51

you know, any

41:53

comedy, any comedy I've ever seen. It was funnier

41:55

than any comedy I've ever seen. In Emily Blond, I'll never forget

41:57

when she when she snaps her fingers

42:00

like you tell Anne Hath

42:02

the way to go into the room. So good,

42:04

so good, so good. So

42:06

speaking of the ladies

42:08

who are high fashion, we

42:10

have number one hundred seventy six Rihanna

42:14

at Wow

42:16

the met Ball Gala. Bowen Yanga

42:19

is feeling has Red Bull Vodka. Now,

42:21

what are some incredible looks of Rihanna at

42:23

the Mecca. I'm of course always

42:25

remembering her yellow moment

42:28

with that huge circular train. Oh

42:30

my god. We always remember the

42:32

Pope outfit, papal

42:34

paple um, the Catholic imagination

42:37

theme. Of course, we remember so

42:40

much Rihanna. She is the number

42:42

one met Galla moment. She is the staple.

42:45

And remember she is out there,

42:47

you know, not necessarily making music, but she has

42:49

pivoted to fashion in a way that is controversial,

42:52

but we respect. I'm for it. I'm all for it.

42:54

I'm for it. Okay. So one hundred seventy

42:56

five, every time Kenny

42:59

died on Park and they

43:01

say, oh my god, you

43:03

killed bastard, you

43:06

bastard. It was really Cartmon who said you

43:08

can. And remember when every

43:10

kid in elementary school was doing their Cartman

43:12

voice. I remember this so so so vividly.

43:15

And I remember moving from Montreal

43:17

to Colorado and then all the kids in the third grade

43:19

being like, well, you're moving to where they

43:21

where they do South Park, That's where

43:23

South Park is. And I was like, that actually

43:26

gave me a lot of cool capital right as I was leaving.

43:28

And so there we go. That's local culture. And now

43:30

one seventy four is the

43:33

Big Bang to

43:36

be the beginning of our universe is

43:39

the Big Bang, which was a huge

43:41

I don't how did it happen. Um,

43:44

I think it happened like one Adam,

43:47

you know, kind of got sucked up and then started

43:50

the whole and then and then the universe started

43:52

to expand. Well thank god, well,

43:54

thank god, I mean you really can't.

43:57

Yeah, we have the Big Bang to thank for all of

43:59

the us. We really do, wouldn't

44:02

you say, I mean, we would not be sitting here

44:04

without the Big Bang. And so I definitely pour out

44:06

some respect to ha Alright,

44:09

so this is one seventy three. This is

44:11

Kate Notes

44:13

on a scandal saying you

44:16

want to bar I

44:19

just think a screenplay that we remember.

44:21

Yes, Number one seventy two is

44:24

claymation technology. Claymation

44:26

technology. Now this is the act

44:29

of sort of making little clay figures

44:32

and sort of making them move.

44:34

And then we get amazing things like Chicken

44:37

Run. Like Chicken Run darring mel Gibson.

44:39

We get I forgot that he was in that,

44:41

and he was just dropped from the Chicken Run sequel

44:44

for all of his resurfaced

44:46

anti semitic and when he was just dropped

44:48

from the Chicken Run sequel, part of the news

44:50

that kind of maybe got lost in the mel Gibson

44:53

news cycle of it all after Winona writer decided

44:55

to speak out again, thankfully, is

44:57

that they were good at DreamWorks.

44:59

Was I think going to do another Chicken Run with mel

45:01

Gibson attached, like some twenty

45:03

years later? But it's like, we don't have

45:06

we can't have mel Gibson in movies anymore. I

45:08

don't think we can have mel Gibson and film anymore.

45:11

Technology stands as the number one seventy two,

45:13

but we're happy we have claimation. Of course, Rudolph,

45:15

Rudolph, I

45:17

think I think it qualifies. Okay,

45:20

So number one hundred seventy one

45:22

is Nicole's Pitman's

45:24

American accent as

45:26

seen in Big Little Lies, as seen in many films,

45:29

are American accent is very American.

45:32

I would say it's very Australian. Wow,

45:34

I would say it's very Australian learning American.

45:37

There you go, and that's the perfect middle grounds. And one hundred

45:40

seventy is American

45:43

accent. Yes, of course it's very stressed.

45:46

You know. You can hear this in you know such

45:48

films as Revolutionary Road six, films

45:50

as Steve Jobs, and you know Titanic

45:52

which stay tuned, stay tuned, actually know Steve Jobs.

45:55

She played, like, ah,

45:57

yes, yes, I don't know why I said Steve Jobs.

45:59

There were some interesting accent work going

46:01

on in there, and that Oscar nominated performance.

46:04

Of course, one hundred sixty nine on our list

46:06

is American

46:09

accent. You're so infuriating.

46:14

I can't even come up with the line.

46:18

I think women have lives.

46:20

I don't even know what the full line. She definitely

46:23

is American in those

46:25

films. Outside of the films,

46:28

she's decidedly not. And we see that

46:30

sort of dialogue between Sarsha, between

46:32

Nicole, between Kate, but for none,

46:35

for none of them, do I think? I

46:37

don't think the accident work takes away from the performance

46:39

exactly. And you know what three talents, three

46:42

huge white women talents.

46:44

Yeah, and so speaking of talents and white

46:46

women, number one is

46:50

Christine Apple and

46:52

all of her many projects.

46:56

Can you speak to some of these projects that Christine

46:58

Applegate has been involved, you know, as someone who's still hasn't

47:00

seemed dead to me, I still appreciate this.

47:02

Hold on, let me say, married with Children

47:05

huge, Yes, yes, Anchor man

47:07

Legend, Ron Burgundy, come on, iconic,

47:09

And Samantha be Samantha

47:13

Samantha not Samantha

47:15

b Smanthody is famously someone else. We

47:17

also have um the incredible

47:19

bad Moms, Bad Moms,

47:22

Oh my god, who could forget just and

47:24

honestly, if no one has seen dead to me out there,

47:27

and some have, it's not like no one has

47:29

seen it, but you have to check it out. Dead

47:31

to me is culture, and of course

47:33

also culture is Linda Cardalini, who unfortunately

47:35

did not but

47:38

we do shout her out on sixty seven

47:40

Christmas, Well, could

47:43

you even have culture without Christmas? I don't think you could

47:45

have culture without Christmas. For Christmas to have its own

47:48

genre of music, it might

47:50

as well be country. You know, Oh, it

47:52

might as well be country. It's actually a rule of culture

47:54

number fifty. Christmas might

47:56

as well. My

47:59

country is not on the left, it's not on

48:01

the last country. Music did not make it, did

48:03

not make it, but Christmas as a season,

48:05

as a holiday, as a vibe, definitely made

48:07

it. Because you know, what affects so many people

48:10

in terms of you know, and I hate to say it, but the

48:12

capitalist sort of machines.

48:15

Yes, you know, it's like saying like,

48:17

you can't you can't be like I

48:19

don't see color in a racist society, even

48:21

though it's a social construct. Capitalism is a social

48:23

construct. You can't say I don't believe in money,

48:26

um, but you can and you can't say I don't believe

48:28

in Christmas because we live in a Christmas culture.

48:30

We live actually in a Christmas culture. And actually,

48:33

if you really think about how many months out of the year

48:35

Christmas decides it's optimal

48:37

culture, it's really crazy.

48:39

And we need to be talking about it, and I say, where's that

48:45

is when the French judge

48:48

was not fair towards the Canadian

48:51

skaters. You remember this, I actually

48:54

don't. And you put this on the list tonight. Oh

48:56

my god. This is when the Canadians

48:58

doubles figures skaters were absolutely

49:01

incredible when they go this

49:03

is years ago and there was

49:05

doubles figure skating and the Russian

49:07

couple beat them, even though the Canadian

49:10

figure skaters are absolutely slate it. And

49:12

then you found out it came out that the

49:14

French judge had a biased vote

49:16

and it was a little bit of a fix going in, so they gave them

49:18

co gold medals. Oh

49:20

my god, I can't believe you of Canadian

49:23

culture don't remember when the Canadian figure skaters

49:25

got the shop. Why isn't there a movie optioned

49:27

about that? Well, we should write it.

49:29

And that's the thing is like, when there's not a movie

49:32

of things you have you have tote it.

49:34

And that's a rule culture number seventeen. When

49:37

there's not a movie of things,

49:40

you have to write them.

49:43

Let's move on to skills

49:48

conversations debate.

49:51

I mean it's a tales all the time, people debating

49:53

what's better Eminem's for skittles? Where

49:55

do you stand? I stand firmly

49:58

on the side of my eminem

50:00

sisters. Okay, what

50:03

do you say as someone who

50:05

enjoys sweets and

50:07

sugary sweets over chocolate. I'm

50:09

a Skittles girl, and I love skittles

50:12

and I always will the beginning of a

50:14

new conflict between us. The beginning

50:17

let's move on to this is Jonas

50:21

inventing the polio vaccine

50:23

Gone Fish. Tell us about Miss sal Miss

50:26

Salk was successful in

50:28

the concept of noculating

50:30

your immune system with a weaker version

50:32

of a virus such as polio,

50:35

such as coronavirus. And

50:37

this is gonna be a thing that sort of lifts as all,

50:40

hopefully out of the current squalor

50:42

that we're in. I mean, you know, let's

50:45

not get too used to this, yep. Where

50:47

the goal is to get out of this situation

50:50

with the help of multiple vaccines,

50:52

several of them in phase three trials at

50:54

the moment of this recording in

50:56

late June. And you know,

50:59

we will not achieve herd immunity if we don't if

51:01

if, if enough people do not get vaccinated.

51:04

So let's we have to beat back this tide of the anti

51:06

vax movement and make sure that everyone gets

51:09

equitable access to

51:11

a vaccine once it is invented. Number

51:13

one sixty three is big

51:15

Old Meg the

51:18

Stallion absolutely burst onto

51:20

the scene Hot Girl Summer, indeed

51:22

Hot Girl Lifetime, more like how Girl

51:24

Lifetime. We're like, we would not have Hot Girl Summer, we would

51:26

not have none fast Ship or

51:28

the Savage Dream Mix or um

51:31

Her Girls. I mean this was this was to

51:33

me the single that's that launched Megan's career

51:35

because I would agree And this is the first one you turned

51:37

to my attention, and I knew that you were serious about

51:39

it because of the way you squealed, and

51:43

you are a squiller for Megan and I am too. Can

51:45

you can you just tell the listeners that I was

51:48

in on the ground floor with Megan. I will I

51:50

can confirm to the listeners. Boon Yang was one of

51:52

the first to even be speaking

51:54

about Megan v. Stallion in the

51:56

way that we all are. You know, I'm

51:58

just saying like you need to respect

52:01

just like we need to respect. Number one sixty

52:03

two Joe Millionaire.

52:06

This, of course, was the reality show where several

52:09

contestants thought that the

52:11

suitor they were competing for was a millionaire

52:14

named Joe Millionaire. His name

52:16

I think was actually Evan. It was revealed

52:18

to the ladies that, um, he actually

52:20

was not a millionaire after all. He was like a simple farm

52:22

person and the woman

52:25

he picked, Zora, had to deal with that and they

52:27

did not make it. They did not make it,

52:29

but there was a lot of tension in that final episode because the Door

52:31

first said no, rejected

52:33

the proposal, and then said she came back and said

52:36

yes. I think probably because she was trapped

52:38

in a situation and coerced

52:40

by producers. I'd be very curious to see how

52:42

the Doors doing now. Unfortunately we won't

52:45

have that answer in this episode, but perhaps

52:47

in a future installment. Number

52:49

one sixty one is art

52:51

Pop. I mean an

52:53

amazing album, I think, ahead

52:55

of its time, ahead of its time. As our friend Sam Taggart

52:57

has written about in Vulture, it is her

53:00

Pinkerton. It is the album that was released

53:02

to critical panning, and

53:05

then over time has developed

53:07

a nice petina and we've all sort of we listened

53:09

back to it and this is actually genius. Applause

53:11

is amazing. We

53:13

were too hard on it. Donna Tella is

53:15

incredible. G u Y watched

53:18

the video again. It's the last time Kyle Richards

53:20

and Lisavanner pop were able to be in the same place,

53:22

and um, do what you Want

53:24

unfortunately a great song, but we have the Christina

53:27

Aguilera version, Yes we Do, which is a definitive

53:29

version which I believe is superior. And also never

53:32

forget the ballad Dope Dope,

53:34

Oh No. I like she performed indentures

53:37

that the YouTube music Festidium and

53:42

number one sixty is another song. It's called

53:45

this song Somewhere Over

53:49

This famously appeared in the film Wizard of Oz

53:52

and went on to have a quiet and impact on the

53:54

culture. It's you know, we

53:56

we we get to graft a lot of queer meaning

53:58

onto the song. Now, um, you

54:00

know the song also in terms of the filmic

54:02

narrative aspect of it, you know, sets

54:04

up Dorothy's want and it's

54:06

beautiful. It's sort of gets us

54:08

into Act two of the movie, which is when she lands in Oz

54:11

when she said it's a favorite of American

54:13

Idol contestants Kimberly Locker

54:16

and I'm so happy that when we talk about Somewhere

54:18

over the Rainbow, we also say the name Kimberly

54:21

lock Um number

54:23

one. Kelly Rowland

54:26

saying she's the second lead vocalist

54:28

of the group. Huge,

54:31

I mean when she proclaimed that she was the second lead vocalist

54:34

of the group and she earned that look from Beyonce. This

54:36

is a YouTube video that you can all look up. Just type

54:38

in Kelly Rowland second lead vocalist other

54:40

group. You will not be upset that you did.

54:43

Kelly Roland invented a sort of

54:46

role in groups and

54:48

musical groups, called the second lead vocalist of the

54:50

group. Even though the term lead vocalist would imply

54:52

that there's only one second lead

54:54

vocalist means would would would require

54:57

us to believe there are two lead vocalists

54:59

and one is sort of Maine and one a second.

55:01

And honestly, she did correctly label herself

55:04

she was the second LEO and this

55:06

was didn't she say this during the first generation

55:08

of Destiny's Child? She said it when

55:10

there were still four when there was four, so in a

55:12

way you can be like if it was just

55:14

her, Michelle and Beyonce, and

55:16

she was like, I'm the second lea focus of the group. That's a huge fu

55:19

you to Michelle, But what she's saying it when

55:21

there's four, that's a funk you to LaTavia

55:23

LaToya. Yes, obviously,

55:25

I mean she didn't mean any harm. But at

55:27

that point, could she have done anything correctly? Probably

55:30

not. Probably was held to be Kelly Rowland. Number

55:32

one is USA

55:36

South Carolina answer

55:39

to her debate question, Um,

55:41

I forget what it was. It was about textbooks

55:44

or something. Well, she definitely mentioned

55:46

textbooks and how there needs to be more education in schools,

55:49

but please look up on YouTube miss

55:51

team USA South Carolina to answer

55:53

epically bad. Yes,

55:56

you all know what. You all love it, don't you. We've

55:58

got to move on because this is almost an hour

56:00

in and we are nowhere near getting

56:02

to the top love the list. So

56:04

Number one hard for these seven is share

56:07

disappearance on Will and Grace.

56:09

What chemistry with Sean Hayes. She has chemistry

56:12

with Sean Grace. You know that was thirty

56:15

minutes of work door

56:18

to door and she was incredible

56:20

And that was that was famously where we developed

56:22

a vocabulary around a good term

56:25

term and also she said snap

56:27

out of it and earned a check. Number

56:29

one is Simon and Randy.

56:33

Remember these three, these were

56:35

the three in a lot of ways the original three yes,

56:38

and they are really the three

56:41

yes. Now going forward, we

56:43

have one when

56:45

Keen and ll did the

56:47

orange tell

56:50

us why it's so important? Well, this was

56:52

so good because it was a reliable

56:54

bit in the show Keenan and Kelly that

56:57

happened I think every episode, I

56:59

think was every episode then very close

57:02

to and really what Kel was asking

57:04

was who loves orange soda? And

57:07

by the time the bit was over, you knew

57:09

what the answer was, Kell, Kell loves

57:12

soda? Is it true? He do?

57:14

He? Do? He? Do you? And

57:16

this actually really did enforce

57:19

upon us in a young communic age that

57:21

really comedy is commitment and

57:24

its repetition. It's commitment,

57:26

it's repetition, it's volume,

57:28

volume, and it's saying things in a

57:30

voice. And we should just say that keenan

57:33

Kel are sketch comedy legends and

57:35

icons. They are the legendary

57:37

to the legendary too. Let's keep going.

57:39

Speaking of legendary too, Number

57:41

one is Mr

57:45

and Mrs Smith. Oh they met on

57:47

the side of that film. And boy, let me tell you it

57:49

was caputz for Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anison

57:52

at that point because brand Jelina

57:54

stepped out to the scene and they were the power couple

57:56

for a little while there. Don't you love that

57:58

this huge Hollywood are a couple of ment on the set

58:01

of a fine movie. I

58:03

think it's a good movie, and I think if you saw

58:05

it again you would actually agree with

58:07

me. And it is hashtag

58:10

and early Carrie Washington vehicle. You're

58:12

right, it's an early Carry Washington vehicle. If you

58:14

look up any sort of screenwriting, like

58:16

treatment examples Mr and Mrs Smith. For some

58:19

reason, the treatment is available and everyone

58:21

sort of gets to read that and model their treatments

58:23

in their outlines. Number one of the

58:25

three is the great book,

58:29

not the movie. The book. The

58:31

book. This is a very important

58:34

book. If you're in high school, you probably read

58:36

it. Yes, you're in high school. You don't need to

58:38

see the movie. No one needs to see the movie. It's not Bosslerman's

58:41

finest work. I don't think that would be Mulan Rouge.

58:43

I would say that would be Mulan Rouge. I

58:45

think the book is great. I think

58:47

the book is short. It's you can read it in

58:50

one night when sitting. Um.

58:52

We love that cover with the eyes, Oh,

58:54

the cover with the eyes. Now one fifty

58:57

two is Jamila Jamal's

58:59

multiple slash con conflicting

59:02

stories about chased

59:05

by bees. Now, can you elaborate

59:07

on this? She has multiple accounts where

59:09

she talks about the kind

59:13

of very uh

59:15

distressing experience of being chased

59:17

by bees out onto a street

59:20

with moving cars.

59:22

The setting is vary from

59:24

um like temporally and um

59:27

geographically that she was in England and she

59:29

was young and teenager, or that she was or

59:32

that this happened two weeks ago outside

59:34

the u N when the Pakistani delegation

59:36

was visiting, or or something like that. I mean, there's just

59:38

a lot of stories of

59:40

Jamie and jamil firsthand accounts of her being

59:43

chased by bees onto a street, and you

59:45

know, it's I think it's iconic culture. I think it's moving the

59:47

culture forward. We get to sort of talk about

59:49

bees and their place in

59:52

our celebrities lives. Well, yeah,

59:54

I would agree, but I also I'm concerned for

59:56

her, and I wish that Jamilla would stay inside.

59:58

You know, I'm concerned for her if every time she leaves

1:00:01

her home that she has a be encounter. I

1:00:03

hope that she finds a way, you know, to really

1:00:05

do a lot of work from inside. I bet quarantine has actually

1:00:07

been kind of good for her because you can sort of sit at

1:00:09

the computer and not worry about bees, unless

1:00:12

you know they're so obtested with her that they're making

1:00:14

a weight into her home, which I really hope is

1:00:16

not the case. And we're wishing, wishing

1:00:18

the best for your Jamilia, and we're thinking of we love you, Jamila,

1:00:20

And this is number is speaking

1:00:25

of bees. Honeys keep Jamila,

1:00:27

You're not gonna want to eat any honey cheos

1:00:30

because these are famously honey

1:00:32

nuts cherios. I mean their cheerios

1:00:34

that are covered in honey nut.

1:00:38

What do you think honey nut is um? I

1:00:41

think it's when bees come. Now we're

1:00:43

going to move on to one D fifty Witches.

1:00:45

Natalie and Meals relationship

1:00:49

in Black Swan. Wow,

1:00:51

who could forget the film Black Swan and the relationship

1:00:54

they're in between Natalie and Milia.

1:00:56

Natalie really kind of playing the role of the white

1:00:58

swan here and then mel playing the role of the

1:01:00

titular black Swan, and the question

1:01:03

loving in the air, will Natalie have what it

1:01:05

takes to sort of become the black Swan and

1:01:07

what does that mean for Mela. Now,

1:01:09

do you think Mila is dead by

1:01:11

the end of the movie. I would say

1:01:14

that she's a lie. Natalie

1:01:16

has sort of envisioned

1:01:19

the Black Swan and

1:01:22

the Mila that comes to her later on

1:01:24

in the movie spoiler alert, who she stabs

1:01:26

and puts in the closet. Do

1:01:29

you remember this part? No, because you remember at the end of

1:01:31

the movie, Mila appears and it's

1:01:34

we're to assume as the audience that Mila

1:01:37

was never really there antagonizing Natalie was

1:01:39

all in her head. But Natalie is

1:01:42

definitively dead by the end of the movie.

1:01:44

I would say, I think that's what the director,

1:01:46

Darren Aronofsky and Natalie would

1:01:49

want to get across. But you know it's open to

1:01:51

insterpretation, like a lot of film. And you know, all

1:01:53

of our readers watch Black Swan and let us know

1:01:55

what you think about the ending we want to hear. Let's

1:02:05

move on to one nine, which is Michelle

1:02:08

Kwan never winning

1:02:10

gold medal. No, she never

1:02:13

was that gold medalist. She's the Amy Adams

1:02:15

glen Close of the Olympic, Susan

1:02:17

Lucci of the Olympics. Well, you know, Susan Luci

1:02:19

ended up winning her at me. Then you can't even say

1:02:21

she's this. You can't even say, like Jackie Cox

1:02:23

can't even say she's the Susan Lucci of drag

1:02:26

No. So so Michelle,

1:02:28

you know, we all thought Salt Lake City was her year, and

1:02:30

it wasn't. It really was

1:02:32

that. The fact that was Sarah Hughes is year. We

1:02:38

end You're the Serra Hughes and I'm the Michelle

1:02:40

Kwan of podcasting. Yeah yeah,

1:02:42

I guess that makes me a gold medal winner while you're

1:02:44

just in squaw absolutely with my with

1:02:47

my Mani Silvers. This is she endorsed

1:02:49

Biden too early. Alright,

1:02:52

So number one hundred eight is

1:02:55

Meryl Streets acting.

1:02:58

She is an amazing act I think

1:03:00

she's one of the better actors. I think that she's

1:03:02

up there amongst the best actors that we have. What's her

1:03:04

favorite Meryl Street performance? I got to

1:03:06

say, I love Meryl Streep in The

1:03:10

Iron Lady, and

1:03:13

she won an Oscar for it, you know, and it deserved

1:03:15

Oscar and it wasn't at all batty or

1:03:19

it wasn't. It was one of my favorite films.

1:03:21

One of those dynamic films I've ever seen is the Iron

1:03:23

Lady, the most exciting films

1:03:25

where so much happens and you get to see such a

1:03:27

thrilling portrayal of dementia. That's

1:03:30

amazing. I don't know mine. Um

1:03:32

Okay, So one is

1:03:35

the upside Down in

1:03:37

the Rain and Spider Man.

1:03:40

Wow, remember this, it was happening in the rain.

1:03:43

It was upside down. Kirsten Dunch told me,

1:03:45

why are with a secret? Good body? She was writing

1:03:47

that like tank Top, you can see her in n applause. They

1:03:50

were absolutely just two people in love

1:03:53

and they were really dating, kissing in an

1:03:55

alleyway. Yeah, and you know has

1:03:58

come out and said that it was actually was very hard too because

1:04:00

the water kept going up his nose. Hashtag

1:04:02

comedic moment. Hashtag comedic moment.

1:04:05

Oh my gosh. And that's such a fun

1:04:07

moment. Okay. So, so the next two

1:04:10

moments in history are a tie. It's a tie,

1:04:12

so tied for one and one

1:04:15

six are Michelle Yo

1:04:18

in Crazy Rich Asians

1:04:21

crowding Tiger in a Dragon.

1:04:24

I guess we should just talk about MICHELLEO as a whole

1:04:26

because these two performances are very

1:04:28

different, very different, very dynamic, and

1:04:31

we have to we have to remind the reader

1:04:34

in case they don't know already that

1:04:36

we met her one time. We met her when she was

1:04:38

doing press first Star Trek when we were interviewing

1:04:40

her at Vulture Fest, and she was very

1:04:43

cool, very cool, and she had a lot of

1:04:45

reverence from her castmates, and we and

1:04:48

I even slept in a quick thing. And this was before

1:04:50

Crazy Rotations came out. But I was like, I'm so excited for

1:04:52

Crazy rot Asians. I like, I kind of crossed the

1:04:54

boundary and I feel weird about it. I don't feel

1:04:56

you did, but I was like, I was like, it's all

1:04:58

I said was it's very inspiring to me. And I looked during

1:05:00

her eye and she and she her facial

1:05:02

expression changed in a way that was like she

1:05:04

registered what I was saying to her as an

1:05:07

Asian person and she was like thank you. And

1:05:10

I really felt it. She is a dream. You

1:05:12

saw that movement, right, Oh? I saw it. I mean we

1:05:14

were both there. I mean it was very obvious

1:05:16

that she was the international star

1:05:19

in the room and she was treated

1:05:21

as such, which we love. Number one hundred

1:05:24

is Kale's designation

1:05:26

as a super food. Kale

1:05:28

has really had a moment. I would say Kle

1:05:31

as soon as they said it's a super food. I

1:05:33

mean that was like the Debbie tump ball and he saw

1:05:35

Kale everywhere. Oh, and I think

1:05:37

that you know what song sounded different

1:05:40

after that cut

1:05:44

in, Oh, I think

1:05:46

that became about Kale and you

1:05:48

were like, this is about Klee. But I said seven eleven

1:05:50

because Beyonce wore that famous sweatshirt

1:05:53

that said Kale on it. She was iconic

1:05:55

a mats and that sweatshirt, and then you all of a

1:05:57

sudden you saw people wearing it, people

1:05:59

like you, people like me. I don't

1:06:01

think that's much right, I have different Beyonce. You

1:06:04

have a Kale. I'll have a kick by have a kick by the pound

1:06:07

one. Sorry, you know me better. Number onety

1:06:09

three is let me blow your

1:06:12

mind by even Stefan,

1:06:15

do do do drop

1:06:17

your asses shake? No, drop

1:06:20

your glasses shake. They screwed

1:06:22

up like you and

1:06:25

Stefani. This was like the first solo venture man

1:06:29

iconic. Her first solo venture at Side of Your

1:06:32

Doubt was a feature on something

1:06:34

like that. Yeah, that was one of the first times we saw and

1:06:36

just went Stefani in a way that was like, Okay,

1:06:38

maybe there's going to be a moment here and

1:06:41

and there was indeed a moment. There wasn't

1:06:43

in a moment it because it hasn't held up, it does

1:06:45

not make our cultural list. But Halliback

1:06:47

Girl, despite being a moment, the album

1:06:50

L A M B. Unfortunately we cannot condone

1:06:52

the horror Juku girls of it all, and

1:06:54

it does not even make it into the top four

1:06:57

on our list. Although I will

1:06:59

say the closest sort

1:07:01

of candidate that win Stefani would have had on this

1:07:03

list was on the song make

1:07:07

Me Like You, which came out,

1:07:11

Um, she just has a hook in there or like a motif

1:07:13

I would say, where she keeps going, oh god,

1:07:16

remember that. I actually have to say something,

1:07:18

Yes, I remember that, and I take it back. She

1:07:20

is on the list. Well we'll we'll find out why

1:07:22

she's on the list, but for

1:07:25

now, Number one two, Ryan

1:07:27

Philipps. But it cruel

1:07:29

intention. This is a great as.

1:07:33

It's an amazing ass. We saw it in the pool

1:07:35

light and you know who else saw it, Weatherspoon.

1:07:38

And she had to marry she mary that she

1:07:40

married that ass. You're gonna have to marry

1:07:43

that as. You're gonna have to marry that ass.

1:07:45

Okay, so then a number hundred forty

1:07:47

one is the

1:07:50

blank that that has monologue.

1:07:53

Can you do it? The clearance,

1:07:56

that that has the international occasions,

1:07:58

that that has the

1:08:00

profile, that that has a huge

1:08:02

moment, and it can apply to so much.

1:08:04

Thank you in Navarro, Thank you. One of the

1:08:07

only top Republicans,

1:08:09

one of the only acceptable Republicans. No, she's the

1:08:11

only one. I mean, I don't even know she's identifying as a

1:08:13

Republican anymore. I mean, she might

1:08:15

identify as conservative, but she's certainly

1:08:17

not going along. She's a trump pater. She's voting

1:08:19

red. What she's

1:08:21

voting red, she's like voting for like red

1:08:24

cannon like Republican. We'll see about that,

1:08:26

okay. Number one hundred forty is

1:08:29

disco. An amazing

1:08:31

movement in music, a huge movement in music.

1:08:33

Thank you, Disco, Thank you so much. Number

1:08:35

one nine is Terry Hatcheris

1:08:39

and Clark. Really it was her first

1:08:41

emergence on the scene. Was her incredible sort

1:08:44

of performance as Lewis Lane and Lewis

1:08:46

and Clark. This is before Desperate Housewives, this is before

1:08:48

Desperate Housewives. I remember watching Lewis

1:08:50

and Clark as a child and being like, this is the most beautiful woman

1:08:52

I've ever seen in my life. She's certainly that.

1:08:54

She's certainly that number one. Dty

1:08:56

eight is the World of Pandora,

1:08:59

A Disney's Animal Kingdom.

1:09:02

I mean, we've gotten our life here. We've eaten

1:09:04

at what was that beautiful steakhouse that

1:09:06

we've even see that wasn't in Animal

1:09:08

Kingdom. It was called Tiffins.

1:09:12

But I mean is that wasn't at the World of Pandora. It's

1:09:14

right when you it's on the way to World of pandas well.

1:09:16

This is this I'm looking you in the

1:09:18

eyes and telling you Tiffins is in a

1:09:21

different area of the park, but it's the closest.

1:09:24

It's the closest three dollar sign restaurant

1:09:27

and eating eatery in Animal Kingdom. That's

1:09:29

closest to Pandora. It is the nicest

1:09:31

restaurant there, but it is not

1:09:34

in the World of Pandora. And we are talking

1:09:36

about the World of Pandora, right, Let's talk about

1:09:38

the World of Pandora. It's got the beautiful plans,

1:09:40

the bioluminescent plans. I'm happy that

1:09:42

you enjoyed Tiffins. I love because

1:09:44

I have booked that for us and I

1:09:46

want to say I went to Tiffins with Michael Hartney

1:09:49

with Wow, You've been to Tiffins multiple

1:09:51

times. I've been to Tiffins with Michael Hartney,

1:09:53

I've been to Tiffins with um

1:09:56

people, with Charlie

1:09:58

Hankin of the probably everywhere we went

1:10:01

for a job in Orlando,

1:10:03

and then this was right when Pandora opened and we went to

1:10:06

Animal Kingdom and we got our life at Tiffins. And

1:10:08

we should say that Tiffins is great, but it is not

1:10:10

on the list top two hundred things in culture.

1:10:13

The world of Pandora is, and we don't have time to

1:10:15

talk about it, don't unfortunately. Number

1:10:18

one seven is Patty

1:10:20

Harrison reveals Feud

1:10:23

with Ellen podcast.

1:10:27

Now, this was an incredible moment where

1:10:29

we've had really a first celebrity feud

1:10:32

unveiled on our podcast. This

1:10:34

was a big deal and it

1:10:36

kind of developed over Patties appearances

1:10:39

on the podcast, where at first

1:10:41

it was Ellen just being generally

1:10:44

transphobic and Patty taking

1:10:46

a shoe with that, and then on Patty's

1:10:48

second appearance on the show, she talked about

1:10:50

a specific incident where Ellen um

1:10:53

murdered a lot of concert which is Patti's first

1:10:56

her first night in her tour at Stockholm

1:10:59

and flipped onto the stage and called

1:11:01

Patty mini slurs. And we should

1:11:03

all say, this is all quote unquote alleged.

1:11:06

So this is an alleged feud, but that happened

1:11:09

between pop stars Patty Harrison and now

1:11:11

the generous and only she can confirm.

1:11:14

But um, thank you Patty for being

1:11:16

brave and thank you to share your story here on the podcast.

1:11:19

UM. And number one hundred thirty six

1:11:21

is Michelle Fiver as

1:11:24

a cat woman and Batman

1:11:26

returns. Who could forget what she

1:11:28

got pushed out of that window by Christopher Walking

1:11:31

and then she was licked alive by cats and

1:11:33

became a supervillain really and

1:11:36

and put together the most formfitting

1:11:39

sort of costume that we've ever seen in

1:11:41

supervillain history. Oh, unbelievable.

1:11:43

She had to be sewn into the costume in real life. Just

1:11:45

a little culture of fact there. So

1:11:48

Number one d thirty five on the list is

1:11:50

Marilyn Monroe and by

1:11:53

extension, Smash, So

1:11:55

we wouldn't have Smash the show the

1:11:58

musical they're in without really

1:12:00

Marilyn Monroe, who was a bombshell

1:12:02

to the Bombshell, the

1:12:05

namesake Bombshell and Smash with

1:12:07

the musical television show that we would not have

1:12:09

had had it not been for Marilyn Monrose existence.

1:12:12

Some like it hot, more like we like it

1:12:15

Maryland, We like it, Norma Jean. Let's

1:12:18

keep going on. The

1:12:20

motor roll Raiser,

1:12:23

Now, the motor roll Eraser was a huge phone

1:12:26

back in the day, the aspirational

1:12:28

phone, in fact, the iPhone before they were iPhones.

1:12:31

I mean it was the motor ill Eraser, the Sidekick,

1:12:33

and BlackBerry all sort of swirling in the same

1:12:35

pool. But as you know, in our

1:12:38

lives and our sort of developments as

1:12:41

non solvent financial, non

1:12:43

financially solvent high school students, I mean,

1:12:45

the motor role E Razor was the

1:12:47

closest thing we could get to like status phone.

1:12:49

When you say, was that the one that went pretty

1:12:52

when you texted someone? It was like, I'm

1:12:54

not sure. Okay, well we can move on a

1:12:56

number one thirty three? Is Were

1:13:00

you ever a kid? No, I was

1:13:02

more like a tamagotchi girl. Okay,

1:13:05

I respect that. What is neo pets to you?

1:13:07

Neopets to me was kind of the first

1:13:10

I understood that the internet could be

1:13:12

a vessel for capitalism, where you know,

1:13:15

if you had to stay, if you wanted your neo pet to stay

1:13:17

at the nice hotel, you had to pay

1:13:19

a huge amount of neo coins wherever

1:13:21

the currency was. And I was like, oh, this

1:13:23

is how the world works in real life, but it's on

1:13:25

the internet and this made up world of animals.

1:13:28

So it was an intro to capitalism for you, absolutely,

1:13:31

and then therefore it makes it onto the list. It makes

1:13:33

it on the list because you had to earn money by playing

1:13:36

games with your pets to make them happy and to feed

1:13:38

them, and if they weren't fed, then they would die and you would

1:13:40

feel bad. It was just similar to Toma, similar

1:13:43

to Tamagtcha, but with Tamagotchi there wasn't

1:13:45

this whole economy around do

1:13:47

you want to give your pet a massage, it has to make the

1:13:49

nice massage place. Like the social

1:13:52

status and the cast system of

1:13:54

society as it were, was sort

1:13:56

of grabbed onto the world of neopets, and you learned

1:13:59

a lot as a kid. I so so really

1:14:01

um Toma got you with more about life or death, and

1:14:03

Pats was more about like a commercial society totally

1:14:07

understand. Number one two is

1:14:09

when people started saying

1:14:11

slash typing l

1:14:14

L. Now

1:14:17

this has really taken ahold of the culture in

1:14:19

a way that I don't think we could have anticipated in the

1:14:21

beginnings of a O L instag messenger. L

1:14:24

O L not only did

1:14:26

it arrive in the scene in a big way, but it is

1:14:28

here to stay. I mean, you've got people saying l O L

1:14:30

in real life. L O L has really

1:14:34

lasted far beyond B R B or

1:14:36

G two G T T y

1:14:38

L. I mean, who says these thing? Cares about T

1:14:40

T y L. We say L L all

1:14:42

the time. It transcends demographics,

1:14:45

that transcends age groups, that transcends race.

1:14:48

What what can we say that transcends race?

1:14:50

Not much? But l O L definitely does. L

1:14:53

O L is used the world over.

1:14:55

No. Number one one, speaking of

1:14:58

you know sort of things technologically

1:15:01

took the world of flame. This is

1:15:03

the invention of gone

1:15:06

all the days when you had to call someone

1:15:09

later and be like, hey, I'll get you this money

1:15:11

later. No, no, no, Now you can just text

1:15:13

the girl the cash over

1:15:16

the internet and

1:15:18

there was no excuse. It's like, hey,

1:15:20

you haven't venmoed me. You haven't fulfilled my venmo

1:15:22

in a while. Oh yeah. Now you know

1:15:25

when someone is troublesome in your life

1:15:27

if they have not fulfilled your venmo. And

1:15:29

I'm thinking actually of Bow and Yang for

1:15:31

many years was a vanmo bandit

1:15:34

you you still really take a long

1:15:36

time to fulfill venmos. Okay,

1:15:38

I'll cop to that now.

1:15:40

Not not so rich

1:15:43

rich woman. Number

1:15:45

one hundred and thirty is Sandra

1:15:49

Wine winning Survivor

1:15:51

Pearl Islands.

1:15:54

A huge win. I mean a win

1:15:57

that she could have won, she could have easily

1:15:59

lost, but um, what's her face? Litl

1:16:01

litl eliminated,

1:16:04

eliminated once during the game, came back

1:16:06

as an outcast that made it to the end. Really

1:16:08

one of the first goats, if you will, really

1:16:11

easy for Sandra to win, and she was a smart player,

1:16:13

smart tratetic player. She's your girl, Sassy Sandra,

1:16:16

and she won again herees versus villains.

1:16:18

And this we really include on the list

1:16:20

because it was the introduction of Sandra

1:16:22

Dias Twine into the franchise up Survivor.

1:16:25

But it was that Lil eliminated. It

1:16:27

was that Little chose Santa to go to the top two and little eliminated

1:16:31

fair play Johnny fair Play. And

1:16:33

so at that point Sandra was like, I've got

1:16:35

this. She really took her moment there. Number

1:16:37

one is the actress Regina

1:16:41

King and everything and

1:16:43

everything she's in Watchman. If

1:16:45

Bill Street could talk, never forget Miss

1:16:47

Congeniality, to never forget

1:16:51

Blonde, to a sequel Queen two to seven,

1:16:54

never forget all the American crimes, I

1:16:56

ever forget any of it. Jerry

1:16:59

mc wire, Jerry McGuire, and we got to say

1:17:01

we also met Regina King one, Yes, we did.

1:17:04

Wasn't she the coolest person,

1:17:06

coolest, best dressed person, best

1:17:09

energy. Yes? And you this

1:17:11

is before I Feel Streak talk came out. You brought

1:17:14

it up and she I remember the look on her face when

1:17:16

you said the words, and we're so excited that if

1:17:18

fiel Stree could talk would come for that to

1:17:20

come out. And she lit up and she was like thank you. She

1:17:22

the look in her and her eyes was thank you for bringing

1:17:25

this up. She was thankful for you. I don't have

1:17:27

to reveal that I can remember clear as day that it

1:17:29

was you who brought up if Bill Streak and

1:17:31

I brought up seven seconds. I

1:17:33

did not bring up a Filtre. Did you brought

1:17:36

up both? No, I didn't know what it feel streeld Talk

1:17:38

was at that time. You said that she had

1:17:40

a new piece by James Baldwin that she was working.

1:17:42

I gave you. I said, you have

1:17:44

a new a movie based on a James Baldwin book,

1:17:47

James Baldwin story. And then you said if fiel Street could

1:17:49

talk, that is I probably did say

1:17:51

that, but I want to give you credit to it because

1:17:53

you did bring up that. But

1:17:56

the thing is we actually recalled both

1:17:58

things that she had won an award for because I said

1:18:00

seven seconds and I said, we are putting into

1:18:02

the atmosphere that Regina people will win another enmy

1:18:04

day. She did, and we

1:18:06

talked about if Bill Streak Top when she would later win

1:18:09

an Oscar. So we did not know

1:18:11

we were sitting in the midst of an Oscar

1:18:13

winner and she had

1:18:15

already won to I mean before that, we're you're going

1:18:17

to be winning another Emmy, young girl,

1:18:20

And she was like, well, thank you, I hope so, and

1:18:22

then those hopes turned to reality. We

1:18:24

stand, Regina King have from the very beginning.

1:18:26

Thank you, Regina. Let's move on to number

1:18:29

one. Another actress Alison

1:18:32

Williams eating the cereal

1:18:35

and get Out a huge

1:18:37

scene. This scene really kind

1:18:39

of shot her forward in my eyes

1:18:41

as you know, someone to watch. Because

1:18:43

we only knew her from Girls playing More any we were like, what's

1:18:45

she all about? That she wasn't get out and the movie get

1:18:47

Out does not work without that performance. We

1:18:50

should say it was fun the way she ate that cereal

1:18:53

and the cereal coming right after. You think the moment up

1:18:55

until that point is when

1:18:57

she's freaking out and then she has

1:19:00

the car keys. She can't find the car keys, and then she has

1:19:02

them and then her expression changes. But the moment

1:19:04

is actually seeing the pictures

1:19:06

of her with her former boyfriends who

1:19:09

have been killed, eating the cheerio

1:19:11

separately from the milk. Yes, an

1:19:13

absolute queen of a scene. Queen of number

1:19:17

is our interview and

1:19:21

as subsequent feud.

1:19:25

This was a low moment for us when we had

1:19:27

what we thought was a really good interview with Tracy Morgan

1:19:30

at Vulture Press and it went viral because

1:19:32

he made some mess out of the Tiffany

1:19:34

Hattrish of it all. You can go back

1:19:36

and watch the video um And then

1:19:38

based on that interview, Julie Chen said

1:19:40

that we were rude for asking him about Tiffany

1:19:43

Hattrich, which is almost like

1:19:45

her saying that every time she's interviewed someone

1:19:48

that she's never asked about a code star, which I

1:19:50

defy Trulie Chen, and I say that is

1:19:52

not true. And Julie Chen, when you lost

1:19:54

your job in disgrace, we did not feel

1:19:56

bad about it because you came for us in a

1:19:58

moment a very bad sting in journalism,

1:20:01

and we don't we don't feel

1:20:03

bad. And Julie Chen, I mean, you're

1:20:06

you're an apologist for a lot of terrible people.

1:20:08

Let's just say that on the record. Let's just say

1:20:10

that on the record. Honey.

1:20:14

Let's keep going. Those big brother checks are

1:20:16

keeping you warm anyway one is.

1:20:20

And doubt saying Hulu,

1:20:23

who could forget when and Down won an Emmy and

1:20:25

said, Hulu, I haven't forgotten. Let's move on.

1:20:29

When Game of Thrones could

1:20:31

make dragons but not photoshop

1:20:34

out a Starbucks cup, I

1:20:37

mean there's not there's nothing that hasn't been said

1:20:39

about the Starbucks cup. No Game of

1:20:41

Thrones references are on this list. Just the fact

1:20:43

that a Game of Thrones let a Starbucks

1:20:45

cup sneak in there. I famously

1:20:47

think it was on purpose because I

1:20:50

have sat in editing rooms and to

1:20:52

think that no one would catch

1:20:55

that cup from shooting

1:20:57

to editing to pop

1:21:00

bushing is literally insane. I don't

1:21:02

believe it, and I think they were trifling with us. That's

1:21:05

that's a conspiracy. MAT's a truther. Let's

1:21:07

keep going American America

1:21:11

for in

1:21:15

Sisterhood of the Traveling. This,

1:21:17

of course, is when she threw the first brick at Bradley

1:21:19

Wufford's house, which is something that we've

1:21:21

covered before her. We

1:21:23

love it, number one, Matt

1:21:26

and on the

1:21:28

View, we were famously on the View.

1:21:30

We went to the View to go see Kelly Clarkson be on the

1:21:33

View, and then they producers

1:21:35

came out of to the audience and said, we're going to be surprising

1:21:38

Kelly's number one fan. People who had

1:21:40

given us tickets were well aware of that. I was in the

1:21:42

audience. I thought they met me. Turns out

1:21:44

they met someone else who allegedly Land

1:21:46

who had lost like ninety pounds while listening to

1:21:48

Kelly's music, and then he got

1:21:51

free tickets to Kelly Clarkson's concert,

1:21:53

which was devastating to

1:21:55

hear about However, the

1:21:58

real gag was when we were on Screw Yes,

1:22:00

and you saw me being a

1:22:03

little overcorrecting in my support for

1:22:05

this boy who would just want tickets

1:22:07

to this Kelly Clarkson show, and

1:22:09

that Matt had this abject horror

1:22:11

on his face that he had to watch

1:22:14

someone else get there Kelly Clarkson fantasy fulfilled,

1:22:16

And um, let's just say it didn't

1:22:18

say well with me. I'm sorry, it did not say

1:22:20

well with me. Number One Sutton

1:22:24

Foster tap dancing and

1:22:26

Anything Goes. She is an amazing

1:22:28

talent, that Sutton, an amazing talent,

1:22:30

that Sutton who has sung at so many Kennedy

1:22:33

Center honors. We

1:22:35

love her something. I mean when she tap danced

1:22:37

and Anything Goes. On the Tony Awards, you

1:22:40

said, how could you give it to anyone else? And

1:22:42

we did and we didn't.

1:22:45

She won that one. But I will say

1:22:47

that I did see her in the musical

1:22:50

Drowsy Chaperone, and she has a number called show

1:22:52

Off and Then and I watched that at a young

1:22:54

age and I said, she cannot lose the Tony and she did.

1:22:56

So these Tony Awards are not a sure thing, no matter

1:22:58

how well turn a performance

1:23:00

that's true. That's true. Let's keep going to

1:23:03

number one, KFC

1:23:06

releasing the double Down.

1:23:09

What is this poem? This is this is the KFC

1:23:11

sand which where the two buns

1:23:14

were chicken patties fried chicken patties,

1:23:16

and it caused a big stir And I think we're still

1:23:18

dealing with ramifications today

1:23:21

fast food culture that we have to say, and honestly

1:23:23

that McDonald's released them. Griddle did not make

1:23:25

it, but KFC releasing the double

1:23:28

Down did make it and make you understand. We're going to get

1:23:30

a lot of sort of hate mail about this

1:23:32

from our McDonald's queens and kings,

1:23:34

but you know, please sit down. We are the culture

1:23:36

where the culture now. The next

1:23:39

is one and twenty Sherry Shepherd

1:23:42

not knowing if the Earth is

1:23:44

flat, you know, famously she was

1:23:46

confronted on the view by saying,

1:23:48

do you think the earth is flat? Will

1:23:51

She said, I don't know. I wouldn't

1:23:53

I would want to know how to feed my children. She

1:23:56

said that something to that effect. She definitely redirected

1:23:58

and she said, I may not know if

1:24:00

the Earth is flat, but I am a good person,

1:24:03

which is, you know, certainly a way to

1:24:05

get her I actually respect that it's fire that Roger's

1:24:07

school. If I don't know my words, but I do know my heart.

1:24:10

I actually have a picture of Sherry Shepherd

1:24:12

up in my personal museum. That's

1:24:14

great. Saint Sherry. We call her especially

1:24:17

a rule of culture. Number ninety s Sherry.

1:24:20

We call her. Number is

1:24:23

Jennifer Lawrence gay

1:24:26

rights. No. Jennifer Lawrence has said a lot of things

1:24:28

in her day, but when she said gay rights, that was culture.

1:24:30

And now all the girls are trying to say gay rights

1:24:32

with her right. Number one D

1:24:35

eighteen Pon

1:24:38

wasted accepting a Golden

1:24:40

Globe. This is when she brought the cookies

1:24:43

up off the table and handed out cookies on her way up

1:24:45

to the Golden Globe. She could tell she was absolutely black

1:24:47

out. But she won for her performance

1:24:49

as cookie Lion, and she deserved

1:24:51

that one absolutely. Number one seventeen

1:24:53

is half the dress.

1:24:56

Who could forget us arguing all about the dress.

1:24:59

I was with you Times Square at a at

1:25:01

a like a bodega buffet, and

1:25:03

you thought it was black and blue, and I thought it

1:25:05

was white and golden. I thought it was white and gold You were

1:25:07

right, I was wrong, And it was really crazy

1:25:09

to have an argument about that and it was

1:25:11

and for me to be right. Number

1:25:14

one hundred sixteen on our rule of top two

1:25:16

hundred moments in culture history is the passing

1:25:18

of the men.

1:25:21

This gave women the right to vote and think

1:25:23

it was about time and it was the beginning of

1:25:26

us a voting rights reform. And

1:25:28

thank you Susan B. Anthony for making

1:25:30

this happen, and all the suffragets

1:25:33

really thank you, which

1:25:36

is Rosie and Elizabeth on

1:25:38

the view. This beats out the passing

1:25:41

of the nineteenth Amendment. When Rosie

1:25:43

and Elizabeth fought on the view, this was

1:25:45

a moment a culture. They went to that fabulous

1:25:47

split screen and really they have not

1:25:49

reconciled over this poem. And when they

1:25:51

went to the split screen, you get see and you come into on this

1:25:53

when Rosie, like Rosie, saw

1:25:55

that they were going to the split screen, or was it Elizabeth who

1:25:57

thought that they were going to It was Rosie who saw it and

1:26:00

called it out wow, And

1:26:02

that's when she quit. She said, I can't be having

1:26:04

this. Someone who has moral

1:26:06

clarity and and and and decisions

1:26:08

based on that clarity. Huge. Yeah, Now

1:26:10

we have number one hundred fourteen carry

1:26:15

voiceover, and I had to wonder,

1:26:17

is there more of an influential

1:26:20

voiceover performance than

1:26:22

this? I had to wonder that I had to wonder. I

1:26:24

don't think there is. I would say this

1:26:26

brought back to the voiceover as a worthy

1:26:29

method of narration. Do you think that there

1:26:31

would be an a Meredith Gray voice

1:26:34

of were convention in Gray's Anatomy without sex

1:26:36

in the City, Carry Bradshaw. I think that

1:26:39

that's a really interesting question, and

1:26:42

I would say no. I would say

1:26:45

Carry Bradshaw and Sara Jessica

1:26:47

Parker's performance as Carrie Bradshaw revolutionized,

1:26:50

revitalized, and resurrected the

1:26:53

voice over as a narrative device

1:26:55

that we now have in Gray's

1:26:57

Anatomy, which has a lead character

1:26:59

named Meredith Gray. Let's keep

1:27:01

going. This is number one. Lisa

1:27:04

Lisa Coudro invented post

1:27:06

It's monologue and Roman Michelle

1:27:09

Wow. I mean when she talks about how she like

1:27:11

used a specific kind of glue epoxy,

1:27:15

you have to wonder did Lisa Coudo draw

1:27:17

on her experience as

1:27:19

a chemistry major at Vassar at

1:27:22

Vassar and working for her father in

1:27:24

some biotech company. Have you

1:27:26

ever met Lisa Kudro. I have not met

1:27:28

Have you met Lissa Coudro Never? When you do meet

1:27:31

her, though, you should tell her that you majored in chemistry

1:27:33

like her. I would love to. I mean, she's she's

1:27:35

the best there is. I mean, we watched the Comeback

1:27:37

season two the other the other day, like we watched

1:27:40

the whole series, and it was just so unbelievable.

1:27:43

Started all started all oh,

1:27:46

you know, Sex in the City started it all

1:27:48

in a different way, of

1:27:51

course. Lea Lela

1:27:53

Durham. I think it's Lena

1:27:55

Dunham. That's what I said, Lena number

1:28:00

one t when Thelma

1:28:02

and Louise drove over

1:28:05

the cliff huge,

1:28:08

This was so huge, and that thunderbird went

1:28:11

over that cliff, and that iconic soundtrack

1:28:13

and those incredible performances of those two women

1:28:16

Gina Davis and Susan Sarandon both

1:28:18

nominated for Oscars in that film. A

1:28:20

film that should be watched,

1:28:22

watched absolutely, and a polarizing ending,

1:28:24

but one that we stand by that

1:28:26

it's an iconic ending because if this world couldn't

1:28:29

handle them, this world didn't deserve them on

1:28:31

that freeze frame ic

1:28:33

iconic, Let's keep going one Dred eleven. Julia

1:28:37

Roberts is huge mouth.

1:28:39

You can hang a coat hanger in that mouth. Mouth,

1:28:42

and that mouth was a hundred

1:28:44

million wattage of smile and

1:28:46

it got her all the roles in the early

1:28:49

nineties, Mystic Pizza on Pretty

1:28:51

Woman still Magnolia's

1:28:53

woolf. The we're

1:28:55

just saying the mouth was a big part

1:28:58

of the appeal because

1:29:00

that smile was amazing and you saw, you

1:29:02

saw it all, and she could a moute through that math like

1:29:05

no other. She's a star. I

1:29:07

see, let's blast through these next ten and

1:29:09

and cut to a break. What what do you say? I

1:29:11

think that we are going to have to just have this

1:29:13

be one episode and we're going to have to do a second episode,

1:29:16

which is part two, I think,

1:29:18

because there's just there's just no way

1:29:21

this is gonna be too long. And I'm actually

1:29:23

saying it on the mic to our producers that this

1:29:26

is gonna have to be a two partner because

1:29:28

I don't know how we thought we were going to get through two

1:29:30

hundred moments of culture. It's it's the only

1:29:32

it was the only option when it was the

1:29:34

only option we

1:29:37

had. It had to be two hundred, had we

1:29:39

had it. We couldn't gloss over these moments.

1:29:42

No, but we're gonna get through these next ten

1:29:44

or next what is it next? Next ten,

1:29:47

and then we're going to take a break, um, and we're

1:29:49

gonna come back with another whole episode, which is the

1:29:51

top one hundred moments of

1:29:53

culture because we have done two

1:29:55

hundred episodes of Last Cultures this, I

1:29:57

mean, the only way to honor that sort of back hat

1:30:00

aologue is with two moments. And I'm

1:30:02

so happy we stopped everything to say that discovering

1:30:04

in this moment, like we have discovered so much that

1:30:07

will be doing two episodes of this because it's not logistically

1:30:09

feasible to continue. Number one D

1:30:12

ten lou Post

1:30:14

light blue oscars dress

1:30:17

a k A. The moment

1:30:20

when she won her oscar firsts a slave

1:30:22

and she had that light periwinkle blue dress.

1:30:25

Zach Posing. I want to say, honestly,

1:30:28

I want to say Zach Posing all the time, because you

1:30:30

know that Zach Poson is my celebrity crush and

1:30:32

he's DM you

1:30:35

made that up. I kind of, for

1:30:37

some reason thought that he that you would

1:30:40

correspondence. Oh my god, I love Zach pos

1:30:42

and I think he's so hot. But anyway,

1:30:44

um, if it wasn't him that made this dress, and then

1:30:46

god bless who did? God bless who did

1:30:49

at this moment the way it moved as she hit

1:30:51

center stage, Oh my god, I

1:30:53

mean just like Cinderella, that like a fairy

1:30:55

tale. It looked so incredible on her, and

1:30:57

she is a fashion icon and we need to say

1:30:59

it loud and proud. Let's keep going.

1:31:02

Let's keep going. One or nine the o C

1:31:04

Season one. Oh

1:31:07

1:31:09

1:31:17

Miss Julie Cooper iconic milth

1:31:27

He's sexy sex You ever watched

1:31:29

the sex scene Front American Beauty when he foxs

1:31:31

1:31:33

fucked by the king. You like getting

1:31:35

funned by the king. Oh my god? Do

1:31:37

1:31:39

1:31:43

Yes? Yes, I would be interested to see

1:31:47

I think he's the Greek. Okay's

1:31:50

Greek there alright, Greek going

1:31:53

um yeah, though he was amazing. Number

1:31:55

one eight Elizabeth Banks

1:31:58

and Power Rain. She

1:32:01

went for it with this one, a true

1:32:03

villain Krispy Kream.

1:32:05

You loved all the Crispy Cream line readings,

1:32:08

and let's do it one too. Three

1:32:10

How

1:32:15

you could tell? The line in the script was how, and

1:32:17

it came out as just like a sort of exasperated

1:32:20

howel Yes, she was going

1:32:22

for the Razzie with this one. I think she wanted to show

1:32:24

up at the Razzy stage winning. But really she

1:32:27

should have been nominated for an Oscar for a no holds

1:32:29

barred performance as Rita Repulsa,

1:32:32

who is, of course I think canonically

1:32:34

Filipino, well, Japanese

1:32:37

in the way that all of them were. I mean maybe Philippine,

1:32:39

maybe some Pacific islander, Southeast

1:32:42

Asian. Well, she's Elizabeth Banks.

1:32:45

Now, she's Elizabeth Banks.

1:32:47

Now let's keep going. Okay, this is number

1:32:49

one hundred and seven. This is Whitney Houston

1:32:52

when she went and who

1:32:56

could forget when the drum made

1:32:59

that sound and she

1:33:01

unleashed the note, you

1:33:04

will never forget where you were when you saw that. I'll never

1:33:06

forget that, and you know famously this was a

1:33:08

song written and first performed by Dolly

1:33:10

Parton, who could have known that it would be

1:33:12

done? So I kindly by Whitney, the Houston,

1:33:15

the Voice, the Voice, Let's

1:33:17

keep going to the

1:33:19

drums and Lose my

1:33:22

Breath by Destiny's Child of

1:33:24

course, But wow,

1:33:28

percussion, fish, Oh

1:33:31

my god, percussion for your absolute

1:33:33

nerves and it just lights up

1:33:35

a spark in you, doesn't it? It really does.

1:33:38

And I knew this was going to be a huge hit when I first

1:33:40

heard it. I had a moment of hope when

1:33:42

Lose my Breath came out and was like, they're back together.

1:33:45

Well they they've never broken up, I

1:33:47

know, but like you know, dangerously

1:33:50

in love. It was the moment and everyone's

1:33:52

like, Beyonce, that's the moment, and I remember

1:33:54

loving that damn album. But then kind of secretly

1:33:57

morning Destiny's Child does mean?

1:33:59

Does this mean Siny's Child is over? But then Lose my Breath

1:34:01

came out and Destiny Fulfield came out, and I was like, all

1:34:04

hope is not lost. Not only did Destiny

1:34:06

of the Field come out, I believe

1:34:08

it is their best work. I believe it's their

1:34:10

best album as a trio. Kelly

1:34:13

Roland has gone on record to say that it is

1:34:15

her favorite. It's

1:34:17

like like like they asked you, like, what's your favorite Destiny's

1:34:20

Child song? And she says, every song off of Destiny's

1:34:22

Destiny I mean, never forget, Girl,

1:34:24

Girl, never forget, If never

1:34:27

forget, I mean cater to you,

1:34:30

to you, t shirt

1:34:33

sleep, Yes, come

1:34:36

on, I mean and also their iconic

1:34:38

Bolt which was not on the album, but was stand

1:34:40

Up for Love, Stand Up for Love. And then they did a

1:34:43

cover of Emotions by the Beg's Well

1:34:45

that was on an earlier album, but yes, all

1:34:47

Emotions was on Survivor. Yes,

1:34:50

it was I Accept Your Apology.

1:34:53

UM number one. The

1:34:55

baby boom after World

1:34:57

War Two. Okay, so, okay

1:35:00

boomer. We wouldn't have the phrase okay boomer

1:35:03

without, of course, the baby boom. Now, this

1:35:05

is a period of time before and

1:35:07

after and during the war when

1:35:10

men were not spending a lot of time with their wives

1:35:12

and someone they did, they got them absolutely

1:35:14

pregnant. This you led to a huge

1:35:17

surge in births during

1:35:19

the time period of

1:35:22

fifties. Yes, absolutely, and

1:35:25

it led to it

1:35:27

coincided with um.

1:35:29

You know, a lot of social programs being

1:35:32

put into affecting the United States and economic

1:35:34

prosperity, so it all could have worked out when

1:35:37

it helped assert the US's global dominance.

1:35:40

Yes, and um, we should say, um,

1:35:43

I am ya teacher, and

1:35:45

I knew this knowledge

1:35:47

of um World War two, and I should be

1:35:49

celebrated. I not

1:35:52

put this in, and I think that should be celebrated for putting

1:35:54

this in. Number one is

1:35:57

the longevity of hang.

1:36:00

Talk about longevity. I

1:36:02

think Pank has had one of the most enviable careers

1:36:04

in music. I mean once she burst onto

1:36:07

the scene with there you Go, look

1:36:09

in Pizza Foe just because I lets

1:36:11

you go, There you Go, talking

1:36:13

about she want me back? Oh

1:36:16

my god, I mean so

1:36:19

much versatility and what is powerful

1:36:21

voice? I mean misunderstood

1:36:23

the album, misunderstood the album.

1:36:26

I mean raise your glass,

1:36:29

So raise your glass if

1:36:31

you are wrong, and all the

1:36:34

ways iconic freak, pink,

1:36:36

iconic freak, iconic absolute

1:36:38

freak. We will never never be anything

1:36:41

but loud and nitty gritty, dirty

1:36:43

gritty, dirty little freak little

1:36:45

freaks, So raise your glass. And

1:36:48

also iconic ballad in a

1:36:50

family potcher. We

1:36:53

look pretty happy.

1:36:55

Let's play perdun not like I

1:36:57

go Natty. Yes,

1:37:00

never forget, never forget number

1:37:02

one hundred and three. And

1:37:07

you better believe that I watched every single

1:37:09

one of her confirmation hearings in the Senate. I

1:37:12

mean, she is the Supreme

1:37:14

Court justice. Do you know this story? AOC

1:37:18

tells this story. But so during

1:37:20

her Senate hearings when she was nominated by

1:37:22

Barack Obama, one of our presidents, remember

1:37:25

her? Remember her? Some

1:37:27

publicists or some like media

1:37:30

consultants or media consults are like, you

1:37:32

should wear a nude neil polish so

1:37:34

that you come off more neutral and

1:37:37

more sort of not as like loud

1:37:39

and vibrant and sort of like you're

1:37:41

not making this impression that you can control. She

1:37:43

said, no, she said fuck that. And you

1:37:45

see her wearing bright red nail

1:37:47

pology. Isn't that? I love that story

1:37:50

iconic. Also, have you seen Knock Down the House? No, I need

1:37:52

to see it. Oh my god, there's

1:37:54

such that it. Knocked Down the House

1:37:56

is amazing. And also it's like, there's

1:37:59

so much great stuff going

1:38:02

on. Netflix has amazing documentaries. You guys,

1:38:04

come on, you gotta give it up. Rule of Culture

1:38:06

number nine documentaries,

1:38:09

guys. Um. But she in her very first

1:38:11

scene talks about she's getting ready, and this is before

1:38:14

she's even filed to run, Like this

1:38:16

camera crew followed her from the beginning. It's

1:38:18

unbelievable. And she's getting ready

1:38:21

and she's like, there's no way to

1:38:23

know how you should get ready as a female running

1:38:25

for president, because either you're in a full suit

1:38:28

or you're in that like drag of light

1:38:31

colored shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the elbow.

1:38:33

But there's no prototype of

1:38:35

how a woman who is a politician running

1:38:37

for office looks, and so you have to think about the way

1:38:39

you present yourself. And it was just like she

1:38:42

also talks about

1:38:46

in the yeah, in the documentary

1:38:48

and it's really moving. So and

1:38:50

she was our speaker, our

1:38:53

speaker at graduation. Yes she was. She spoke

1:38:55

in our graduation and was amazing. In the first word she said

1:38:57

was this is awesome.

1:39:01

Do you remember that? I remember that. And she was like a

1:39:03

girl like me from the Bronx

1:39:06

speaking to you at Yankees. I mean they made

1:39:08

a whole big deal about being at Yankee Stadium. Our

1:39:11

graduation was at Yankee Stadium. Um, okay.

1:39:13

So the next one is

1:39:16

number one D and two Beanie

1:39:18

Baby Culture. Wow.

1:39:22

Wow, Um, I

1:39:24

mean beanie babies are still going strong. I

1:39:26

saw one at the airport on my way into l A. It

1:39:29

was a very perilous environment, but the

1:39:31

beanie babies were a grounding force. And

1:39:33

also, you know what you can never forget

1:39:36

is the fact that, you

1:39:38

know, beanie baby culture also

1:39:41

was Princess Diana culture because

1:39:44

it sort of gave us, you know, the

1:39:47

um beanie baby that was most

1:39:49

famous, which is the Diana baby,

1:39:52

which was the Diana baby. And

1:39:54

also never forget we had our peace Bear, yes,

1:39:57

and we also had um

1:40:00

the dolphins, the dolphins.

1:40:03

Many different things contributed to

1:40:05

um beanie baby culture and ultimately

1:40:08

we were told they would come to be worth a

1:40:10

lot of money and that remains to be

1:40:12

seen. But speaking of toys

1:40:14

that were good for Christmas time, number

1:40:16

one and one is Furby

1:40:20

a big comeback, I would say, in the meme

1:40:23

culture, I'm seeing a lot of furbies. Not

1:40:25

surprised to hear that. I mean, there's such crazy,

1:40:28

crazy animals. I'll never forget what My

1:40:30

uncle got me a Furbye three or four

1:40:32

years too late. And it was like three or four

1:40:34

years after the Furby craze, and I was like, oh my God,

1:40:36

and then I just had this white furby acting a fool

1:40:39

in my closet. I feel actually very bad because

1:40:41

even though it was a toy with no soul,

1:40:44

it really did a good job of making you feel

1:40:46

it did have a soul and feelings because

1:40:48

they would be crying, hysteric,

1:40:51

randomly begging for attention in

1:40:53

the middle of the night. Oh honey, terrible.

1:40:56

So fur actually may have been scarring

1:40:58

culture. I think the scarring culture. Matt.

1:41:01

We're one hundred and one, We're halfway through the

1:41:03

list. What do you think we should so number one hundred?

1:41:05

Oh okay,

1:41:08

so maybe you're saying maybe we should start with a hundred.

1:41:10

I think we start with that, alright. So then literally,

1:41:13

I think we've gone through the first one

1:41:15

hundred of our We've been two hundred to

1:41:18

one hundred and one of our top two

1:41:20

hundred moments of culture, and

1:41:22

I think that we've done an incredibly We've done an incredible

1:41:24

job. We hope that you agree with this list.

1:41:27

You have to agree with the list because it's definitively

1:41:29

empirically the list. Um, we're not

1:41:31

going to do and I don't think so, honey, Because this

1:41:33

this episode is an hour and forty five minutes.

1:41:36

But we are going to say we

1:41:38

will see you later, and maybe the episode

1:41:40

that follow us will be coming a little bit sooner than

1:41:42

you think. Yes, we'll have to talk to the

1:41:45

producers. We're gonna have to talk to the producers because

1:41:47

we've made a lot of decisions without them

1:41:49

and they are very We appreciate their

1:41:51

flexibility and their adaptability in this process.

1:41:54

That we're doing something that no one's ever done before, which is catalog

1:41:57

the top two hundred moments in culture history. No one

1:41:59

has ever done this before. And also it's

1:42:01

our two hundredth episode and we're very excited. Also,

1:42:03

please remember that we're saying

1:42:05

it's our two hundred episode based on

1:42:08

my count, which could be

1:42:10

wrong. I will accept it

1:42:12

as right. I I told you, I looked in your eyes and I

1:42:14

said, I trust you. And remember

1:42:16

that Bowen has not done

1:42:19

account of the episodes, even though I told him, do

1:42:21

you want to double check me? And he said, I trust you? So

1:42:24

I really I I put it to the viewers

1:42:26

to count the episodes and tell me if I'm wrong,

1:42:28

but also deeply no that I don't care.

1:42:30

And that's not the point. The point is to celebrate

1:42:33

this landmark achievement for the pod and

1:42:35

recount the

1:42:38

episodes and moments

1:42:40

of culture that are really meaningful.

1:42:42

We're so drunk um

1:42:45

and I mean, this is the most time I've had

1:42:47

in months. But stay tuned

1:42:50

for the remaining one hundred top

1:42:52

moments in culture history. You're not gonna want

1:42:54

to miss any of these. There's plenty

1:42:57

to cover. And number one, I'd

1:43:00

want to say, definitively, you

1:43:02

can you can? You can? You know push back

1:43:04

on the order of the list. Number one is

1:43:07

in the exact deserving spot.

1:43:09

Oh, number one is the number

1:43:11

one moment in culture history. You will not

1:43:13

dispute it with that, I would say that really

1:43:16

everything is in its right place, there is

1:43:18

no dispute. But before you think we've

1:43:21

not counted something in,

1:43:23

understand that there are a hundred

1:43:25

more moments coming. So and

1:43:28

we end every episode with a song. If

1:43:31

the said no one your body

1:43:34

now, if would you want

1:43:36

it against me?
