00:00:27,020 --> 00:00:32,020
Hello everybody, welcome to another episode of Pop Culture Junky Podcast.

3
00:00:32,020 --> 00:00:37,020
My name is Shauna and I am joined by these lovely co-hosts whose names are...

4
00:00:37,020 --> 00:00:38,020
Olivia

5
00:00:38,020 --> 00:00:39,020
And Nicole.

6
00:00:39,020 --> 00:00:42,020
It is wonderful to see you guys today.

7
00:00:42,020 --> 00:00:46,020
You both look lovely as I was just telling Olivia and Nicole,

8
00:00:46,020 --> 00:00:51,020
they kind of dressed up today and I look kind of like a Shlumpy Asshole.

9
00:00:51,020 --> 00:00:52,020
Your titties look phenomenal.

10
00:00:52,020 --> 00:00:54,020
Thank you, I'm not wearing a bra.

11
00:00:54,020 --> 00:00:56,020
I know, that's why I look so good.

12
00:00:56,020 --> 00:00:57,020
Thank you.

13
00:00:57,020 --> 00:00:58,020
Thank you.

14
00:00:58,020 --> 00:00:59,020
It's just...

15
00:00:59,020 --> 00:01:00,020
It's just she puts her hair in front of me.

16
00:01:00,020 --> 00:01:01,020
Thank you.

17
00:01:01,020 --> 00:01:02,020
Tits up?

18
00:01:02,020 --> 00:01:05,020
No, I appreciate that.

19
00:01:05,020 --> 00:01:08,020
Since COVID, it's been a challenge for me to get a bra on.

20
00:01:08,020 --> 00:01:11,020
I don't know, if I go to the office, I'll wear one.

21
00:01:11,020 --> 00:01:14,020
What is this prison you want me to put my chest in?

22
00:01:14,020 --> 00:01:16,020
Honestly, this tit prison, no.

23
00:01:16,020 --> 00:01:17,020
Not good.

24
00:01:17,020 --> 00:01:18,020
Hanging it free.

25
00:01:18,020 --> 00:01:21,020
I have words for the maker of the bra.

26
00:01:21,020 --> 00:01:25,020
It is a leg up from a corset, but it is.

27
00:01:25,020 --> 00:01:28,020
I look skinnier in a corset.

28
00:01:28,020 --> 00:01:30,020
Sometimes an outfit requires a bra though.

29
00:01:30,020 --> 00:01:33,020
If I have a good, like, a tip top and I'm like,

30
00:01:33,020 --> 00:01:35,020
"This needs a little piece."

31
00:01:35,020 --> 00:01:36,020
A little piece?

32
00:01:36,020 --> 00:01:38,020
It needs counter gravity?

33
00:01:38,020 --> 00:01:39,020
Yeah, yeah.

34
00:01:39,020 --> 00:01:40,020
I get that deeply.

35
00:01:40,020 --> 00:01:43,020
They look a little too 35 sometimes.

36
00:01:43,020 --> 00:01:45,020
I think they're beautiful, 35.

37
00:01:45,020 --> 00:01:46,020
Oh my god.

38
00:01:46,020 --> 00:01:50,020
Almost like J-Lo and her 54.

39
00:01:50,020 --> 00:01:53,020
No one's as perfect and amazing and relatable as J-Lo.

40
00:01:53,020 --> 00:01:54,020
Go to group that.

41
00:01:54,020 --> 00:01:55,020
J-Lo would too.

42
00:01:55,020 --> 00:02:00,020
All right, so you guys have great tits and that just about wraps up another episode.

43
00:02:00,020 --> 00:02:02,020
We're not going to get better at that.

44
00:02:02,020 --> 00:02:03,020
Go to the Patreon for pictures.

45
00:02:03,020 --> 00:02:04,020
Oh my god.

46
00:02:04,020 --> 00:02:05,020
Can you imagine?

47
00:02:05,020 --> 00:02:06,020
No.

48
00:02:06,020 --> 00:02:08,020
We will blow up right next to Nicole's face.

49
00:02:08,020 --> 00:02:09,020
Nicole's face in my tent.

50
00:02:09,020 --> 00:02:10,020
They're not hairy.

51
00:02:10,020 --> 00:02:12,020
Oh, I thought that was the bit.

52
00:02:12,020 --> 00:02:13,020
Are they hairy?

53
00:02:13,020 --> 00:02:14,020
I've seen them.

54
00:02:14,020 --> 00:02:15,020
You won't show us.

55
00:02:15,020 --> 00:02:17,020
Yeah, they're always covered.

56
00:02:17,020 --> 00:02:19,020
Unless they're on my shoe.

57
00:02:19,020 --> 00:02:21,020
They are hairy then.

58
00:02:21,020 --> 00:02:22,020
It's the universe.

59
00:02:22,020 --> 00:02:23,020
Oh my god.

60
00:02:23,020 --> 00:02:24,020
This is feral.

61
00:02:24,020 --> 00:02:25,020
Okay.

62
00:02:25,020 --> 00:02:27,020
What have you guys been watching?

63
00:02:27,020 --> 00:02:30,020
Reading, listening to, what are you obsessed with this whole hairy feet?

64
00:02:30,020 --> 00:02:32,020
Besides tits and feet.

65
00:02:32,020 --> 00:02:34,020
What else is there?

66
00:02:34,020 --> 00:02:39,020
Since I'm a sports girl, I've been obsessed with March Madness.

67
00:02:39,020 --> 00:02:40,020
That's what I've been watching.

68
00:02:40,020 --> 00:02:42,020
I didn't know where to go from there.

69
00:02:42,020 --> 00:02:46,020
Who's in it still as of recording today?

70
00:02:46,020 --> 00:02:53,020
If we want to go by local teams, U of A University of Arizona is still in it.

71
00:02:53,020 --> 00:02:54,020
Hey, how's A?

72
00:02:54,020 --> 00:02:55,020
Is you doing?

73
00:02:55,020 --> 00:02:56,020
Never even made it.

74
00:02:56,020 --> 00:03:01,020
Well, but you know who did make it that is very surprising.

75
00:03:01,020 --> 00:03:08,020
I believe if I remember this correctly, Grand Canyon University made the second round of the

76
00:03:08,020 --> 00:03:11,020
tournament for the first time in school history.

77
00:03:11,020 --> 00:03:12,020
That's insane.

78
00:03:12,020 --> 00:03:13,020
Loads up, baby.

79
00:03:13,020 --> 00:03:14,020
Which is, yeah, it is crazy.

80
00:03:14,020 --> 00:03:15,020
Yeah.

81
00:03:15,020 --> 00:03:16,020
Okay.

82
00:03:16,020 --> 00:03:22,020
So GCU for anybody listening is a for-profit Christian University in Phoenix, Arizona.

83
00:03:22,020 --> 00:03:27,020
And they just entered into what's it called?

84
00:03:27,020 --> 00:03:28,020
The league that they're, I don't know.

85
00:03:28,020 --> 00:03:29,020
They just got eligibility.

86
00:03:29,020 --> 00:03:30,020
A division monitor?

87
00:03:30,020 --> 00:03:31,020
Some there it is.

88
00:03:31,020 --> 00:03:32,020
Yeah.

89
00:03:32,020 --> 00:03:33,020
That's the past.

90
00:03:33,020 --> 00:03:34,020
Like within the last decade.

91
00:03:34,020 --> 00:03:35,020
Yeah.

92
00:03:35,020 --> 00:03:36,020
Yeah.

93
00:03:36,020 --> 00:03:40,020
I dated a guy who was a tour guide for GCU.

94
00:03:40,020 --> 00:03:41,020
I heard it say an athlete.

95
00:03:41,020 --> 00:03:42,020
She's huge.

96
00:03:42,020 --> 00:03:44,020
It's no idea.

97
00:03:44,020 --> 00:03:47,180
And who was a tour guide at GCU.

98
00:03:47,180 --> 00:03:50,860
And we didn't break up immediately after this fight.

99
00:03:50,860 --> 00:03:54,580
But right after we had this fight, we broke up like two weeks later.

100
00:03:54,580 --> 00:03:56,580
So I do blame this.

101
00:03:56,580 --> 00:03:57,580
And I'm sorry, GCU.

102
00:03:57,580 --> 00:03:58,580
Oh, no.

103
00:03:58,580 --> 00:03:59,580
Fuck GCU.

104
00:03:59,580 --> 00:04:01,580
I think you're supporting it.

105
00:04:01,580 --> 00:04:02,580
I'm with your eye shadow.

106
00:04:02,580 --> 00:04:03,580
I'm calling it.

107
00:04:03,580 --> 00:04:06,660
We're, we were watching Patriots Day.

108
00:04:06,660 --> 00:04:12,660
And he went on this completely like anti-Muslim rant.

109
00:04:12,660 --> 00:04:13,660
Oh my God.

110
00:04:13,660 --> 00:04:18,660
And him and I got into an argument about how like the Quran and how it doesn't say to

111
00:04:18,660 --> 00:04:19,660
like hurt anyone.

112
00:04:19,660 --> 00:04:24,020
He was like, I've taken a college level class about how what you're saying isn't true.

113
00:04:24,020 --> 00:04:29,700
And I was like, you took a college level Christian university class on religion.

114
00:04:29,700 --> 00:04:33,900
Do you really think that's a lot of non-gaiic Christianity 101?

115
00:04:33,900 --> 00:04:36,220
I was a enrollment counselor there.

116
00:04:36,220 --> 00:04:38,220
No, it's like a world religion.

117
00:04:38,220 --> 00:04:39,220
Yeah.

118
00:04:39,220 --> 00:04:44,340
So if you're going to a Christian university, you're not going to get the most unbiased view

119
00:04:44,340 --> 00:04:46,340
of what religions believe.

120
00:04:46,340 --> 00:04:48,580
And I was so bad.

121
00:04:48,580 --> 00:04:50,500
But yeah, he really believed.

122
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:51,500
He really believed.

123
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:52,500
Shout out.

124
00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:54,140
And I'm sorry, I said, fuck GCU.

125
00:04:54,140 --> 00:04:56,700
I know a lot of my friends went there and got degrees there.

126
00:04:56,700 --> 00:05:01,660
But from a person who's in a affordable work there for a minute, it was not a great place

127
00:05:01,660 --> 00:05:02,660
to be employed.

128
00:05:02,660 --> 00:05:04,660
Yeah, it's very much Dan Marles.

129
00:05:04,660 --> 00:05:05,660
Really sure.

130
00:05:05,660 --> 00:05:06,660
For head coach for basketball.

131
00:05:06,660 --> 00:05:07,660
Oh, okay.

132
00:05:07,660 --> 00:05:09,660
Phoenix Suns, Dan Marley.

133
00:05:09,660 --> 00:05:11,660
Well, yeah, Hottie McHot Hot.

134
00:05:11,660 --> 00:05:13,660
Maybe that's why they made it.

135
00:05:13,660 --> 00:05:14,660
To a proper way.

136
00:05:14,660 --> 00:05:16,660
They have like a former Phoenix Suns player.

137
00:05:16,660 --> 00:05:17,660
I'm sure they're a good team.

138
00:05:17,660 --> 00:05:18,660
Yeah.

139
00:05:18,660 --> 00:05:21,660
Yeah, they looked pretty decent when they were playing.

140
00:05:21,660 --> 00:05:23,660
Just like my ex-boyfriend, Torgaid.

141
00:05:23,660 --> 00:05:25,660
Looks decent from the beginning.

142
00:05:25,660 --> 00:05:26,660
Looks decent from the beginning.

143
00:05:26,660 --> 00:05:27,660
It's like a suck.

144
00:05:27,660 --> 00:05:28,660
All right.

145
00:05:28,660 --> 00:05:34,620
Now that we went on a Christian college rant, Olivia, what have you been in too lately?

146
00:05:34,620 --> 00:05:39,220
So I've actually read two books this week, shocking.

147
00:05:39,220 --> 00:05:44,020
And unfortunately, there were both intro novels to a series.

148
00:05:44,020 --> 00:05:49,820
And I have learned something about myself that if one book ends, I need a second one immediately.

149
00:05:49,820 --> 00:05:53,380
So I need to like, wait and not read these debut novels.

150
00:05:53,380 --> 00:05:55,500
But both of them were really, really good.

151
00:05:55,500 --> 00:05:59,300
So the first one was a fate, inked in blood.

152
00:05:59,300 --> 00:06:01,300
And it's all on Norse mythology.

153
00:06:01,300 --> 00:06:05,140
So think like low key, love those kind of things.

154
00:06:05,140 --> 00:06:06,660
And it was great.

155
00:06:06,660 --> 00:06:09,300
When I finished it, I was so sad.

156
00:06:09,300 --> 00:06:11,980
They don't even have a release date for the second book.

157
00:06:11,980 --> 00:06:14,820
It's that new of a debut novel.

158
00:06:14,820 --> 00:06:18,860
But the second book that I read, which is a book talk book.

159
00:06:18,860 --> 00:06:20,380
And I was like, okay, I'm seeing it a lot.

160
00:06:20,380 --> 00:06:22,820
I need to go check out what this is.

161
00:06:22,820 --> 00:06:24,500
And it's called Bride.

162
00:06:24,500 --> 00:06:26,500
It's by Ali Hazelwood.

163
00:06:26,500 --> 00:06:31,280
It's a traditional romantic writer.

164
00:06:31,280 --> 00:06:35,020
But it's her like forte and two fantasy.

165
00:06:35,020 --> 00:06:39,460
And it's in what they call the Omegaverse, which I still don't really understand.

166
00:06:39,460 --> 00:06:45,220
But from my understanding, it's like vampires, werewolves, like a bunch of magical creatures,

167
00:06:45,220 --> 00:06:47,160
kind of existing in it.

168
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:52,000
And I really, I'm so ready for this.

169
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:58,680
It's about a vampire and a vampire has to forcefully marry like a werewolf to unite their

170
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,100
people, whatever.

171
00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:05,980
And the last hundred pages of it.

172
00:07:05,980 --> 00:07:12,640
I'm glad it was in the end of it because the werewolves are very similar to dogs in the

173
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,740
sense that they also get red rockets.

174
00:07:16,740 --> 00:07:20,620
But okay, it's the red rocket like human size, so.

175
00:07:20,620 --> 00:07:28,100
No, so the original, the original male part is like a normal male part.

176
00:07:28,100 --> 00:07:34,180
And then whenever they are about to relieve themselves is when they get the red rocket.

177
00:07:34,180 --> 00:07:37,060
And it comes out of the tip of the human.

178
00:07:37,060 --> 00:07:38,460
Just like a dog, baby.

179
00:07:38,460 --> 00:07:39,460
Just like a dog.

180
00:07:39,460 --> 00:07:40,460
Yeah.

181
00:07:40,460 --> 00:07:42,660
Yeah, it was drawing.

182
00:07:42,660 --> 00:07:47,540
And then they call it the not, not a red rocket, not the same.

183
00:07:47,540 --> 00:07:49,180
That's not sexual, that's not hot.

184
00:07:49,180 --> 00:07:51,220
They call it the not.

185
00:07:51,220 --> 00:07:57,940
And it, yeah, yeah, the word the not to describe that.

186
00:07:57,940 --> 00:07:58,940
It's painful.

187
00:07:58,940 --> 00:07:59,940
I don't like it.

188
00:07:59,940 --> 00:08:02,260
Like, try and not inside of you.

189
00:08:02,260 --> 00:08:06,060
Like, I imagine it being like, like, a boy scout.

190
00:08:06,060 --> 00:08:08,860
Not like it goes inside and then it ties them up.

191
00:08:08,860 --> 00:08:11,860
I'm just picturing like it being folded like that.

192
00:08:11,860 --> 00:08:13,700
And I'm in pain for them.

193
00:08:13,700 --> 00:08:14,700
I don't know.

194
00:08:14,700 --> 00:08:15,700
I don't know.

195
00:08:15,700 --> 00:08:16,700
I didn't like it.

196
00:08:16,700 --> 00:08:17,700
But the book was good.

197
00:08:17,700 --> 00:08:21,100
Unfortunately, it was like the last hundred to fifty pages.

198
00:08:21,100 --> 00:08:22,100
Oh my god.

199
00:08:22,100 --> 00:08:25,460
So after that, I was like, okay, I'm glad this ended because if they kept talking about

200
00:08:25,460 --> 00:08:26,460
it, I'm out.

201
00:08:26,460 --> 00:08:31,700
So I've heard of Notting before from a vice article.

202
00:08:31,700 --> 00:08:36,740
And vice rights, just the most fair last fucking article is right where you're just like,

203
00:08:36,740 --> 00:08:38,940
do you want to know where the G spot is?

204
00:08:38,940 --> 00:08:43,700
And this part of your butt reaches article and you're like, sure, like click.

205
00:08:43,700 --> 00:08:44,700
Yeah.

206
00:08:44,700 --> 00:08:46,620
I mean, obviously, I'm going to click on that.

207
00:08:46,620 --> 00:08:52,180
And when it was like, why this one direction fanfic trope is making the internet go wild.

208
00:08:52,180 --> 00:08:54,100
And I was like, sure.

209
00:08:54,100 --> 00:08:58,420
And Notting shows up a lot in one direction fanfic.

210
00:08:58,420 --> 00:09:00,940
Like there's going to be a rocket.

211
00:09:00,940 --> 00:09:01,940
Yeah.

212
00:09:01,940 --> 00:09:09,220
Where like Harry's the, the alpha and the driver, whatever.

213
00:09:09,220 --> 00:09:11,300
And he knocks inside of God.

214
00:09:11,300 --> 00:09:13,540
I can't think of any other one direction members.

215
00:09:13,540 --> 00:09:14,540
There's the same.

216
00:09:14,540 --> 00:09:17,420
He knocks inside of Zane and they all.

217
00:09:17,420 --> 00:09:19,220
And then a little one direction.

218
00:09:19,220 --> 00:09:20,220
Yeah.

219
00:09:20,220 --> 00:09:21,220
Baby is formed in.

220
00:09:21,220 --> 00:09:22,220
Yeah.

221
00:09:22,220 --> 00:09:24,900
And apparently this is a thing.

222
00:09:24,900 --> 00:09:25,900
Okay.

223
00:09:25,900 --> 00:09:30,940
Well, from a teenager's mind to my disturbing nightmare.

224
00:09:30,940 --> 00:09:31,940
Now you heard it.

225
00:09:31,940 --> 00:09:34,500
Fate, inked and blood, not as much weird shit.

226
00:09:34,500 --> 00:09:35,500
End of the book.

227
00:09:35,500 --> 00:09:36,500
So good.

228
00:09:36,500 --> 00:09:37,500
Bright.

229
00:09:37,500 --> 00:09:38,500
We have some questions for you.

230
00:09:38,500 --> 00:09:39,500
Ali Hazelwood.

231
00:09:39,500 --> 00:09:41,500
You know, we don't see you in one direction.

232
00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:42,500
You're going to be.

233
00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:43,500
I feel like she's a one direction girl.

234
00:09:43,500 --> 00:09:44,500
She has to be who knows.

235
00:09:44,500 --> 00:09:46,500
But really, really good.

236
00:09:46,500 --> 00:09:47,580
That's what I've been obsessed with.

237
00:09:47,580 --> 00:09:48,580
What about you?

238
00:09:48,580 --> 00:09:51,020
So she's been obsessed with where we've sex.

239
00:09:51,020 --> 00:09:52,020
Yes.

240
00:09:52,020 --> 00:09:55,420
Who couldn't be who amongst us?

241
00:09:55,420 --> 00:09:56,940
Who amongst us?

242
00:09:56,940 --> 00:09:59,860
Who amongst us?

243
00:09:59,860 --> 00:10:03,820
I want to talk about two things that I've watched this week.

244
00:10:03,820 --> 00:10:11,620
The first one is X-Men 97, which I feel like a lot of millennial Marvel fans have been

245
00:10:11,620 --> 00:10:13,460
interested in an excited for.

246
00:10:13,460 --> 00:10:21,420
So there was an X-Men cartoon, X-Men the animated series that aired from 1992 to 1997.

247
00:10:21,420 --> 00:10:26,340
And it was amazing and iconic and kind of started.

248
00:10:26,340 --> 00:10:29,660
It was part of Marvel's animated universe in the 90s.

249
00:10:29,660 --> 00:10:35,540
They had a few shows that really kind of launched Marvel creating movies and television

250
00:10:35,540 --> 00:10:36,540
shows.

251
00:10:36,540 --> 00:10:37,780
I feel like the MCU.

252
00:10:37,780 --> 00:10:40,700
This is like pre-Brian singer X-Men.

253
00:10:40,700 --> 00:10:47,300
This is pre the MCU pre-The In-If-The-Live-Action thing is I was a child when these came out.

254
00:10:47,300 --> 00:10:48,300
I watched them.

255
00:10:48,300 --> 00:10:50,180
It's like a Saturday morning cartoon thing.

256
00:10:50,180 --> 00:10:53,980
The theme song is amazing and iconic.

257
00:10:53,980 --> 00:11:00,180
And at the very end, it ended in spoiler for the ending of a show from 1997.

258
00:11:00,180 --> 00:11:01,380
I don't know.

259
00:11:01,380 --> 00:11:03,460
Professor X dies.

260
00:11:03,460 --> 00:11:11,300
So this X-Men 97, it has a lot of the original voice cast came back for this and it's on Disney

261
00:11:11,300 --> 00:11:14,980
Plus and it picks up right where it left off.

262
00:11:14,980 --> 00:11:17,780
So it's based in 1997.

263
00:11:17,780 --> 00:11:20,780
They pick up right after Professor X died.

264
00:11:20,780 --> 00:11:22,780
Magneto is there.

265
00:11:22,780 --> 00:11:24,780
Cyclops storm.

266
00:11:24,780 --> 00:11:26,580
Wolverine.

267
00:11:26,580 --> 00:11:27,580
It's incredible.

268
00:11:27,580 --> 00:11:31,020
Is that like new writing or is that a part of a comic?

269
00:11:31,020 --> 00:11:36,180
So there are a lot of comic stories where Professor X dies.

270
00:11:36,180 --> 00:11:38,060
Spoiler I guess for X-Men 97.

271
00:11:38,060 --> 00:11:40,540
At this time of airing, it'll be a couple episodes in.

272
00:11:40,540 --> 00:11:48,620
But Magneto is left the Academy in Charles's will and Magneto is like their main bad guy

273
00:11:48,620 --> 00:11:50,940
that they've been facing all these years.

274
00:11:50,940 --> 00:11:56,020
But Magneto, whose name is Eric, is actually like best friends with Charles from childhood

275
00:11:56,020 --> 00:11:57,740
and they kind of went their separate ways.

276
00:11:57,740 --> 00:12:00,620
Yeah, I remember that from the live action one.

277
00:12:00,620 --> 00:12:04,460
Yeah, how they always kind of have that like strained friendship.

278
00:12:04,460 --> 00:12:07,660
So now Magneto is trying to kind of prove to the X-Men.

279
00:12:07,660 --> 00:12:12,260
Like I'm changing, I'm going to lead the X-Men now that Charles is dead and they're all

280
00:12:12,260 --> 00:12:14,940
like, we're not sure if we trust you bro.

281
00:12:14,940 --> 00:12:19,620
We're kind of evil and we've been fighting against you for so long.

282
00:12:19,620 --> 00:12:21,100
But it's really been great.

283
00:12:21,100 --> 00:12:28,060
I'm only a couple episodes in right now, but the graphics stay really true to that 1990s

284
00:12:28,060 --> 00:12:30,780
Saturday morning cartoon vibe.

285
00:12:30,780 --> 00:12:33,660
But you can tell the budget is up, right?

286
00:12:33,660 --> 00:12:38,620
So there's amazing fight sequences, the voice cast is really solid.

287
00:12:38,620 --> 00:12:43,780
It feels nostalgic but with an extra injection of money in there.

288
00:12:43,780 --> 00:12:44,780
That's good.

289
00:12:44,780 --> 00:12:45,780
There's a lot of time.

290
00:12:45,780 --> 00:12:50,700
I think I have like continuations in a story more than like a remake.

291
00:12:50,700 --> 00:12:52,700
I think remakes make a lot of people angry.

292
00:12:52,700 --> 00:12:57,340
But that's cool to see that it just picks up and kind of continues the story.

293
00:12:57,340 --> 00:12:58,340
Yeah, it's amazing.

294
00:12:58,340 --> 00:13:01,020
Like I feel like millennial fans love it.

295
00:13:01,020 --> 00:13:06,300
Those of us who remember the cartoon from the 90s, but also new fans could probably jump

296
00:13:06,300 --> 00:13:12,460
right in here because they cover okay, our old principle of the school, our headmaster is

297
00:13:12,460 --> 00:13:13,700
dead.

298
00:13:13,700 --> 00:13:20,700
And now our headbat guy wants to take over, is being taken over from this, you know, so

299
00:13:20,700 --> 00:13:21,700
I don't know.

300
00:13:21,700 --> 00:13:26,460
I've really been enjoying it and I feel like it's a good spot for new fans to jump in and

301
00:13:26,460 --> 00:13:28,580
old fans to enjoy.

302
00:13:28,580 --> 00:13:32,740
The other thing I want to talk about briefly is a movie that I watched on Netflix called

303
00:13:32,740 --> 00:13:33,740
"Damsel."

304
00:13:33,740 --> 00:13:36,180
Ooh, I started it, but I fell asleep.

305
00:13:36,180 --> 00:13:37,660
That's not a good sign.

306
00:13:37,660 --> 00:13:42,940
I went to the Spring Training game and drunkenly ordered two pizzas and put on "Damsel"

307
00:13:42,940 --> 00:13:43,940
and stuff.

308
00:13:43,940 --> 00:13:45,500
Oh my god, I'm so hungry.

309
00:13:45,500 --> 00:13:48,940
I want a pizza right now.

310
00:13:48,940 --> 00:13:52,300
So it is a movie starring Millie Bobby Brown.

311
00:13:52,300 --> 00:13:53,300
Pop her.

312
00:13:53,300 --> 00:13:54,540
Robin Wright is also in it.

313
00:13:54,540 --> 00:13:58,420
She's a little bassist, which I didn't know, and she's pretty cool in it.

314
00:13:58,420 --> 00:14:03,860
And it is a fantasy tale, Millie Bobby Brown stars as this girl, LOD.

315
00:14:03,860 --> 00:14:04,860
LOD.

316
00:14:04,860 --> 00:14:07,940
And they call, I know, it's a weird name.

317
00:14:07,940 --> 00:14:09,940
Sorry if your name's LOD.

318
00:14:09,940 --> 00:14:13,140
And they call her Ellie and we were like, okay, L.

319
00:14:13,140 --> 00:14:14,140
All right.

320
00:14:14,140 --> 00:14:17,340
It's a blame your parents if your name is LOD.

321
00:14:17,340 --> 00:14:18,340
Yeah.

322
00:14:18,340 --> 00:14:20,340
It sounds like a Lote.

323
00:14:20,340 --> 00:14:27,060
Lote and Melody mixed together, which is kind of lovely because I love a LOD.

324
00:14:27,060 --> 00:14:29,540
Yeah, that sounds good right into you.

325
00:14:29,540 --> 00:14:30,540
I'm so happy.

326
00:14:30,540 --> 00:14:31,540
A Melody about a LOD.

327
00:14:31,540 --> 00:14:32,540
LOD.

328
00:14:32,540 --> 00:14:33,540
LOD.

329
00:14:33,540 --> 00:14:34,540
LOD.

330
00:14:34,540 --> 00:14:35,540
I love you.

331
00:14:35,540 --> 00:14:36,540
Oh, LOD.

332
00:14:36,540 --> 00:14:37,540
Okay.

333
00:14:37,540 --> 00:14:38,540
Anyway, I'm about that dark.

334
00:14:38,540 --> 00:14:39,540
I was supposed to try verse.

335
00:14:39,540 --> 00:14:40,540
The transectic actics.

336
00:14:40,540 --> 00:14:41,540
Yeah.

337
00:14:41,540 --> 00:14:42,540
It comes out so weird.

338
00:14:42,540 --> 00:14:43,540
LOD.

339
00:14:43,540 --> 00:14:44,540
I love you.

340
00:14:44,540 --> 00:14:45,540
Yeah.

341
00:14:45,540 --> 00:14:49,540
Anyway, this doesn't do nothing to do with this movie.

342
00:14:49,540 --> 00:14:53,860
So she comes from a village that is kind of destitute.

343
00:14:53,860 --> 00:14:59,980
She gets betrothed to this prince and she thinks she's going to have this charming, beautiful

344
00:14:59,980 --> 00:15:00,980
life.

345
00:15:00,980 --> 00:15:03,180
And this isn't giving anything away because it's all in the previews.

346
00:15:03,180 --> 00:15:08,900
She's kind of given up as like a sacrifice to a dragon for the well-being, what they think

347
00:15:08,900 --> 00:15:11,380
of this village she married into.

348
00:15:11,380 --> 00:15:15,660
And it's kind of, I mean, the movie is called Damsel and the plot is basically, she ain't

349
00:15:15,660 --> 00:15:16,660
no fucking Damsel.

350
00:15:16,660 --> 00:15:17,660
Yeah.

351
00:15:17,660 --> 00:15:20,380
Like, she does all of her own stunts for that movie.

352
00:15:20,380 --> 00:15:21,980
It's really impressive.

353
00:15:21,980 --> 00:15:22,980
Yeah.

354
00:15:22,980 --> 00:15:27,660
And the upper body straight, she displays throughout this movie is incredible.

355
00:15:27,660 --> 00:15:29,140
I would die.

356
00:15:29,140 --> 00:15:30,140
I would pass it.

357
00:15:30,140 --> 00:15:31,140
Yeah.

358
00:15:31,140 --> 00:15:32,140
Yeah.

359
00:15:32,140 --> 00:15:34,020
She does all of her own stunts, but I like her.

360
00:15:34,020 --> 00:15:35,020
I think she's.

361
00:15:35,020 --> 00:15:36,020
I like her too.

362
00:15:36,020 --> 00:15:38,140
She's got a pill battle with a lot of people.

363
00:15:38,140 --> 00:15:39,140
Yeah.

364
00:15:39,140 --> 00:15:41,100
But I think she's just a great person.

365
00:15:41,100 --> 00:15:46,660
And I'm like, how can you be 11 and become a movie star and not change people are very

366
00:15:46,660 --> 00:15:47,620
harsh on her?

367
00:15:47,620 --> 00:15:48,620
Literally.

368
00:15:48,620 --> 00:15:51,500
And like, let's just stop being so fucking harsh on young women anyway.

369
00:15:51,500 --> 00:15:57,020
I mean, my God, she's transitioning from being a child star to trying to be a woman in

370
00:15:57,020 --> 00:15:58,020
an actress.

371
00:15:58,020 --> 00:16:01,020
And I think she's taken on some great project so far.

372
00:16:01,020 --> 00:16:05,420
All of her projects that I've noticed that I've watched of her anyway are strongly feminist.

373
00:16:05,420 --> 00:16:08,700
It's, oh gosh, the one where she plays Sherlock Holmes sister.

374
00:16:08,700 --> 00:16:09,700
Anola Holmes.

375
00:16:09,700 --> 00:16:10,700
Yeah.

376
00:16:10,700 --> 00:16:12,180
All of her characters start with E.

377
00:16:12,180 --> 00:16:13,180
Interesting.

378
00:16:13,180 --> 00:16:14,180
For a lot of them to.

379
00:16:14,180 --> 00:16:15,180
Millie.

380
00:16:15,180 --> 00:16:16,180
Millie.

381
00:16:16,180 --> 00:16:17,180
Millie.

382
00:16:17,180 --> 00:16:40,180
I thought it was a great action. It reminded me of ever after, with Drew Berrymore back in the day. Also, it reminded me of that movie, "Ready or Not," where she marries into that family and they have to play hide and seek with some family ritual and their children remember. And, Dan also feeds into one of our previous episodes of...

383
00:16:40,180 --> 00:16:42,180
-Guff her! -Guff her!

384
00:16:42,180 --> 00:16:43,180
-Guff her!

385
00:16:43,180 --> 00:16:46,180
[Music]

386
00:16:46,180 --> 00:16:48,180
[Music]

387
00:16:48,180 --> 00:16:51,180
So, Jennifer Lopez...

388
00:16:51,180 --> 00:16:55,180
That's it, that's the whole sentence. [Laughter]

389
00:16:55,180 --> 00:17:01,180
I mean, she's having a moment right now in pop culture for better or worse.

390
00:17:01,180 --> 00:17:07,180
I feel like a couple years ago, she was... I mean, a worldwide love from her...

391
00:17:07,180 --> 00:17:16,180
Maybe not love, but at least admiration and some kind of respect from her show at the Super Bowl, where everybody said, "Oh my God, she's in her 50s. Look at that body, that's insane."

392
00:17:16,180 --> 00:17:19,180
-Amazing, yeah, that's great. -Yeah, she looks great.

393
00:17:19,180 --> 00:17:31,180
But, she's facing a bit of a downfall right now, which is of her own making and just also proof of how fast I think the public can turn against you.

394
00:17:31,180 --> 00:17:40,180
Yeah, I think to back it up a little bit for those who have been under a rock or maybe are not TikTok users, like the three of us are...

395
00:17:40,180 --> 00:17:45,180
JLo made a movie, which is called "This is Me Now."

396
00:17:45,180 --> 00:17:51,180
And it's a call back to an album she made a while back, is "This is Me Then."

397
00:17:51,180 --> 00:18:00,180
And a couple years ago when she announced she was gonna be doing this album, everyone made the joke like, "This is Me Now, 'cause it was a shanty then."

398
00:18:00,180 --> 00:18:09,180
Yeah, so a big conspiracy theory of JLo is that on all the songs that she made on her first album is actually a shanty ghost singing.

399
00:18:09,180 --> 00:18:11,180
Dude, she doesn't sing on a lot of songs.

400
00:18:11,180 --> 00:18:13,180
Yeah, on a lot of songs, she's a ghost singer.

401
00:18:13,180 --> 00:18:25,180
So JLo decides that she's going to make a movie film or a musical movie about this album, "This is Me Now."

402
00:18:25,180 --> 00:18:33,180
And also she makes, in conjunction with this, a documentary about making "This is Me Now."

403
00:18:33,180 --> 00:18:34,180
And an album.

404
00:18:34,180 --> 00:18:36,180
So it's like a three-step thing.

405
00:18:36,180 --> 00:18:38,180
She went for the Beyonce special.

406
00:18:38,180 --> 00:18:40,180
Literally, but she is not Beyonce.

407
00:18:40,180 --> 00:18:42,180
And she's playing and she funded it.

408
00:18:42,180 --> 00:18:44,180
Yeah, that's crazy to me.

409
00:18:44,180 --> 00:18:48,180
Yeah, so we watched the documentary as well.

410
00:18:48,180 --> 00:18:50,180
All of us together.

411
00:18:50,180 --> 00:18:55,180
But after watching this documentary, I had to watch the movie.

412
00:18:55,180 --> 00:19:01,180
And so with the movie, if you're not really familiar or don't want to see it, I would not recommend it.

413
00:19:01,180 --> 00:19:02,180
Yeah, do you pop this movie?

414
00:19:02,180 --> 00:19:04,180
No, absolutely not.

415
00:19:04,180 --> 00:19:11,180
But the movie is based on this Puerto Rican myth about these two, it's kind of like a Romeo and Juliet story.

416
00:19:11,180 --> 00:19:12,180
So it's kind of further.

417
00:19:12,180 --> 00:19:24,180
It's sort of so-and-out like the movie is based on this Puerto Rican myth that it's like a star-crossed Romeo and Juliet lover situation.

418
00:19:24,180 --> 00:19:30,180
And one woman gets turned into a rose and her lover to find her gets turned into a hummingbird.

419
00:19:30,180 --> 00:19:36,180
So it's a Puerto Rican myth that if you see a hummingbird, it means that they're looking for their lover.

420
00:19:36,180 --> 00:19:39,180
And that is the theme of this entire movie.

421
00:19:39,180 --> 00:19:46,180
And so she's creates this myth into the through line of this movie.

422
00:19:46,180 --> 00:19:49,180
And I'll tell you the three stories of it.

423
00:19:49,180 --> 00:19:56,180
There are the zodiacs who are all the cameos that they talk about in this documentary, which we'll talk a lot about.

424
00:19:56,180 --> 00:19:58,180
So the zodiacs are all the celebrities.

425
00:19:58,180 --> 00:20:03,180
And they're overlooking JLo's life and wondering like, why can't you see the signs?

426
00:20:03,180 --> 00:20:08,180
Then there is JLo who is playing a 28 year old.

427
00:20:08,180 --> 00:20:09,180
Oh my god.

428
00:20:09,180 --> 00:20:11,180
She's a fucking old woman.

429
00:20:11,180 --> 00:20:13,180
Does she D.A. herself?

430
00:20:13,180 --> 00:20:16,180
I don't know. I mean, she looks so good. Who knows?

431
00:20:16,180 --> 00:20:17,180
I know.

432
00:20:17,180 --> 00:20:19,180
And I'm sure there's some kind of filter going on here.

433
00:20:19,180 --> 00:20:20,180
Yeah.

434
00:20:20,180 --> 00:20:21,180
But like, yes, she scores.

435
00:20:21,180 --> 00:20:26,180
And so there's like the real storyline of her going through it in her life.

436
00:20:26,180 --> 00:20:29,180
And then there's also this weird dream sequence.

437
00:20:29,180 --> 00:20:34,180
Meanwhile, all this entire time, it is her dancing.

438
00:20:34,180 --> 00:20:38,180
And there's some lines, but it's like dancing into the music.

439
00:20:38,180 --> 00:20:40,180
And so it's all the songs from her album from the album.

440
00:20:40,180 --> 00:20:46,180
And I was trying to figure out I was like, okay, watching this movie, this is not the worst movie I've ever seen.

441
00:20:46,180 --> 00:20:50,180
The music is so bad.

442
00:20:50,180 --> 00:20:55,180
And they talk a little bit about on the documentary where they made the album.

443
00:20:55,180 --> 00:21:00,180
And then they had to reverse engineer the album into the movie.

444
00:21:00,180 --> 00:21:01,180
Oh, man.

445
00:21:01,180 --> 00:21:08,180
And I really, truly believe if she had made the movie and then made the music, it would have been better.

446
00:21:08,180 --> 00:21:10,180
It's like to the detriment of your music.

447
00:21:10,180 --> 00:21:15,180
And if you were going to present yourself as a musical artist, I don't know, maybe you would be focused.

448
00:21:15,180 --> 00:21:17,180
But that a little bit.

449
00:21:17,180 --> 00:21:22,180
It sounded like me in an Apple freaking garage band.

450
00:21:22,180 --> 00:21:25,180
Like I'm not even kidding. Like the mixing was bad.

451
00:21:25,180 --> 00:21:28,180
Of the songs, like the songs themselves were bad.

452
00:21:28,180 --> 00:21:30,180
The beats were bad.

453
00:21:30,180 --> 00:21:33,180
Like all of it was so atrocious.

454
00:21:33,180 --> 00:21:35,180
And so I don't know about you guys.

455
00:21:35,180 --> 00:21:37,180
I know we mainly watch the documentary.

456
00:21:37,180 --> 00:21:39,180
What did you think about the documentary?

457
00:21:39,180 --> 00:21:41,180
Like did it seem interesting enough?

458
00:21:41,180 --> 00:21:43,180
Like obviously people had said that it was really bad.

459
00:21:43,180 --> 00:21:48,180
But what did you guys think about the way she was telling the story and the documentary?

460
00:21:48,180 --> 00:21:54,180
I feel like you describing the musical movie is basically just a documentary.

461
00:21:54,180 --> 00:21:55,180
Yeah.

462
00:21:55,180 --> 00:22:00,180
Honestly, like the way you just described it, I'm like, I feel like I watched it.

463
00:22:00,180 --> 00:22:03,180
I remember her calling the people to be the zodiacs.

464
00:22:03,180 --> 00:22:04,180
Yeah.

465
00:22:04,180 --> 00:22:06,180
Nobody wanted to work with her.

466
00:22:06,180 --> 00:22:09,180
She called so many celebrities.

467
00:22:09,180 --> 00:22:12,180
And everyone was like, oh, they're busy that day.

468
00:22:12,180 --> 00:22:13,180
Oh, they can't do it.

469
00:22:13,180 --> 00:22:14,180
They have this commitment that day.

470
00:22:14,180 --> 00:22:18,180
And I'm like, do you not know that that's a sign that nobody wants to work with you?

471
00:22:18,180 --> 00:22:22,180
That's what I gathered is, I mean, for people kept telling her, left and right.

472
00:22:22,180 --> 00:22:23,180
This is a bad idea.

473
00:22:23,180 --> 00:22:24,180
Yeah.

474
00:22:24,180 --> 00:22:25,180
You shouldn't do this.

475
00:22:25,180 --> 00:22:28,180
And she went ahead and did it anyway and self-funded it.

476
00:22:28,180 --> 00:22:30,180
And honestly, it's getting a lot of flat.

477
00:22:30,180 --> 00:22:34,180
Like even her best friend, Jane Fonda, who I don't know if that's actually her best friend,

478
00:22:34,180 --> 00:22:38,180
but from previous clips when she got her walk of fame star, they were best friends.

479
00:22:38,180 --> 00:22:40,180
They were in that film together years ago.

480
00:22:40,180 --> 00:22:43,180
Yeah.

481
00:22:43,180 --> 00:22:45,180
And it was crazy to me about like all the people who are best friends with JLo.

482
00:22:45,180 --> 00:22:46,180
I don't know if you guys picked this up.

483
00:22:46,180 --> 00:22:48,180
They were all her employees.

484
00:22:48,180 --> 00:22:50,180
They were like, she's like my best friend.

485
00:22:50,180 --> 00:22:51,180
She's like a sister to me.

486
00:22:51,180 --> 00:22:54,180
So that felt very interesting.

487
00:22:54,180 --> 00:22:59,180
Like, I definitely think JLo will only surround herself with yes people.

488
00:22:59,180 --> 00:23:00,180
Absolutely.

489
00:23:00,180 --> 00:23:01,180
Absolutely.

490
00:23:01,180 --> 00:23:03,180
And a very common through line.

491
00:23:03,180 --> 00:23:04,180
Yeah.

492
00:23:04,180 --> 00:23:06,180
And she has, it's interesting to see that these people work for her.

493
00:23:06,180 --> 00:23:10,180
I wonder what their salaries look like to say that they're her friends and stuff like that,

494
00:23:10,180 --> 00:23:14,180
because she has a big history of being awful.

495
00:23:14,180 --> 00:23:18,180
She's staffed and to just the public like a few things that I gathered.

496
00:23:18,180 --> 00:23:23,180
So her drivers allegedly follow strict rules or they're going to be fired.

497
00:23:23,180 --> 00:23:25,180
She won't work with Virgo's.

498
00:23:25,180 --> 00:23:26,180
Yep.

499
00:23:26,180 --> 00:23:27,180
That's insane.

500
00:23:27,180 --> 00:23:28,180
Like literally refuse it.

501
00:23:28,180 --> 00:23:29,180
That's fine.

502
00:23:29,180 --> 00:23:32,180
So it wasn't lost on me that she made Kim Petra's the Virgo.

503
00:23:32,180 --> 00:23:33,180
Yep.

504
00:23:33,180 --> 00:23:34,180
Yep.

505
00:23:34,180 --> 00:23:35,180
You only transversal.

506
00:23:35,180 --> 00:23:40,820
And she's accused of being a terrible tipper and just if you're some kind of ordinary person

507
00:23:40,820 --> 00:23:43,180
around her, then she's going to treat you like shit.

508
00:23:43,180 --> 00:23:47,980
JLo is universally known as a diva, which I typically do not like because it's like, okay,

509
00:23:47,980 --> 00:23:50,180
if you stand up for yourself, you're not.

510
00:23:50,180 --> 00:23:51,180
You're a bitch.

511
00:23:51,180 --> 00:23:52,180
You know, that's very common.

512
00:23:52,180 --> 00:23:56,060
Well, there's different than being like standing up for yourself when something really

513
00:23:56,060 --> 00:23:57,060
goes wrong.

514
00:23:57,060 --> 00:24:01,580
Like, Bree Larson and when people are talking down to her for just having the audacity to

515
00:24:01,580 --> 00:24:07,580
do exist as a woman, that's different than being like not tipping people.

516
00:24:07,580 --> 00:24:08,580
Yeah.

517
00:24:08,580 --> 00:24:13,700
That's another one that I had is she refused to speak to a flight attendant who directly

518
00:24:13,700 --> 00:24:14,940
spoke to her.

519
00:24:14,940 --> 00:24:16,900
She won't acknowledge her backup singers.

520
00:24:16,900 --> 00:24:19,180
You're not allowed to look her in the eye.

521
00:24:19,180 --> 00:24:22,940
She makes her nannies work 16 hours a day.

522
00:24:22,940 --> 00:24:28,900
I watched some tick talk about a guy who worked at a movie theater in Hollywood and she wanted

523
00:24:28,900 --> 00:24:30,940
to go watch a movie.

524
00:24:30,940 --> 00:24:34,900
And she had to go through the back door because she cannot go through the front door like the

525
00:24:34,900 --> 00:24:35,900
public.

526
00:24:35,900 --> 00:24:40,140
But he's like, okay, well, the back door is where if you've ever worked in a movie theater

527
00:24:40,140 --> 00:24:42,580
or restaurant, that's where the dumpsters are.

528
00:24:42,580 --> 00:24:44,100
That's where we take the trash out.

529
00:24:44,100 --> 00:24:45,100
Yeah.

530
00:24:45,100 --> 00:24:46,980
So it's kind of sticky and smells.

531
00:24:46,980 --> 00:24:51,180
So he said the whole staff had to spend like 24 hours hosing it down and making it look

532
00:24:51,180 --> 00:24:54,940
like a red carpet and it's like pristine for JLo.

533
00:24:54,940 --> 00:25:00,900
I thought one of the funnier things was the beginning of the movie, Ben Affleck.

534
00:25:00,900 --> 00:25:03,060
Because like, what are we doing?

535
00:25:03,060 --> 00:25:04,820
Why are we having this now?

536
00:25:04,820 --> 00:25:10,180
The opening line was the irony of the greatest love story never told is that you're telling

537
00:25:10,180 --> 00:25:11,180
it.

538
00:25:11,180 --> 00:25:16,980
And they were calling him Penn Affleck because she showed all of those letters he wrote

539
00:25:16,980 --> 00:25:19,060
there in the 2000s.

540
00:25:19,060 --> 00:25:20,060
That was crazy to me.

541
00:25:20,060 --> 00:25:22,740
Dude, and I do think he was okay with all of them.

542
00:25:22,740 --> 00:25:25,980
Because being shown he seemed kind of uncomfortable.

543
00:25:25,980 --> 00:25:30,980
Ben Affleck kind of baseline seems uncomfortable at all times to be there.

544
00:25:30,980 --> 00:25:36,220
But now let's speak a little bit to Jennifer Lopez trying to seem so relatable.

545
00:25:36,220 --> 00:25:41,460
I think this is like a downfall of her brand too is I mean, she's in her 50s.

546
00:25:41,460 --> 00:25:47,220
I feel like she could be a person who kind of speaks like, yeah, this is what it's like

547
00:25:47,220 --> 00:25:48,220
to be a woman in my 50s.

548
00:25:48,220 --> 00:25:50,820
This is what I'm doing for my fitness.

549
00:25:50,820 --> 00:26:02,540
She comes across is so extravagantly.

550
00:26:02,540 --> 00:26:04,580
She wants you to feel that way.

551
00:26:04,580 --> 00:26:05,580
Exactly.

552
00:26:05,580 --> 00:26:09,020
And then it makes you feel bad about yourself.

553
00:26:09,020 --> 00:26:11,740
That's just kind of what I gather from her on social media anyway.

554
00:26:11,740 --> 00:26:12,740
Yeah.

555
00:26:12,740 --> 00:26:16,740
I also read to you that I don't know if this is true or not, but it probably is considering

556
00:26:16,740 --> 00:26:19,140
everything we've been talking about that.

557
00:26:19,140 --> 00:26:20,140
When she went back to her hometown, I believe that she was a woman who was a woman who

558
00:26:20,140 --> 00:26:22,920
I believe she grew up from the Bronx.

559
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,560
- Yeah, she actually grew up in Coragloth.

560
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:25,400
- Annie from the blah.

561
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:30,440
She went back to her hometown and a group from her neighborhood knew she was there.

562
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:34,960
They asked her to come back to her old-time school to help out and support it, probably

563
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:39,720
donate some money if she could, and she just completely ignored them and did not want

564
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,880
to do anything to help her old-time school.

565
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:47,320
And I'm like, you came from absolutely nothing, and you don't want to help out in any

566
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:48,320
way.

567
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,320
- Yeah, but you're a mother.

568
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:51,320
- Possibly can.

569
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:52,320
- Yeah, exactly.

570
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,520
- And she wants to rep the Bronx whenever it serves her.

571
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:55,520
- Oh, yeah.

572
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,320
- She wants to say Jenny from the blog, and from the Bronx, but then I saw some funny clip

573
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:03,920
of her going to her childhood home or in the area, and she's like, I'm Jennifer Lopez.

574
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,920
- I'm obsessed with that.

575
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,320
I think that's the funniest thing ever.

576
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:08,680
And she would tell she was taken aback.

577
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,520
She's like, oh my god, you don't know who I am.

578
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:11,520
- J-Lo.

579
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:12,520
- It's me, Jenny.

580
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:18,120
- That was a really popular clip going around right now with her taking out her extension.

581
00:27:18,120 --> 00:27:22,880
She's like, I remember when I was a little girl, and I was just so wild, and I'd take my

582
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,520
hair out, and I was free.

583
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,760
And she's like making this per-slip.

584
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,960
Like, you know, I wish I could be her again.

585
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:34,560
And she's talking like that.

586
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:35,560
- Yeah.

587
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:40,280
- She sounds like me right now, and then she goes, man, when I was a kid, I was in the Bronx,

588
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,760
and you know, like, I don't know if she's performing for her.

589
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,800
But for everybody in the Bronx, she's like, we don't rep you.

590
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:49,320
- Yeah, we don't know you.

591
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:50,920
- You rich and I'm claiming you.

592
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,120
- Yeah, we don't claim you.

593
00:27:52,120 --> 00:27:54,120
- That's yeah, I mean.

594
00:27:54,120 --> 00:27:58,600
- So in the beginning of this documentary, this is one of the things that pissed me off

595
00:27:58,600 --> 00:27:59,600
the most.

596
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,760
So they're going like, why do you want to do this?

597
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:08,320
And J-Lo goes, you know, Prince is my inspiration.

598
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:13,280
He made a movie, musical, album, of a purple brain.

599
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,360
And it's like, girl, are you comparing yourself to Prince Prince?

600
00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:21,680
And she does that like multiple times throughout the documentary.

601
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:22,680
- This self-angry.

602
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,680
- What's the word I'm looking for?

603
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:25,680
Self-aggrandization.

604
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:26,680
- Yeah.

605
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:27,680
- There it is.

606
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,120
- And so she could care for yourself to purple rain.

607
00:28:29,120 --> 00:28:33,720
And then the next clip is, you know, Beyonce's movie didn't make anything.

608
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,200
Bababla's movie didn't make anything.

609
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:37,920
And like, no one believes in us.

610
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:39,440
So she's producing in herself.

611
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,720
And I went, you said, oh, I'm just like Prince.

612
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,040
So I'm going to make this movie.

613
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:44,280
Beyonce couldn't do it though.

614
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,080
And I'm like, okay, well, Beyonce did it.

615
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,800
And it was iconic.

616
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,120
But they were like, no studio would pay for it.

617
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:51,040
And it didn't make money.

618
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,640
And I'm like, yeah, but that's like one of the most iconic parts about it.

619
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,040
Beyonce is lemonade.

620
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:57,040
Like exactly.

621
00:28:57,040 --> 00:28:59,880
- And it went over really well.

622
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,320
But Beyonce made an amazing album.

623
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,320
And then she made an amazing visual album.

624
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:09,760
It wasn't, she made a shit album and then made up semi-good movie.

625
00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:13,840
And like throughout this whole documentary, which I thought was pretty crazy,

626
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:18,600
is Ben Affleck is literally begging her not to do this.

627
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,360
He's like, this isn't going to go well.

628
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:26,360
Like at one point, he asked her like, what is success with this?

629
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:27,560
Like what's the point?

630
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,160
Like, when are you going to be happy with what you did?

631
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,160
And she goes, just making it.

632
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:36,240
And she says like, I want to show the world that you can do it.

633
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,400
I want to make this movie so people know love exists.

634
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:41,200
- Yeah, yeah.

635
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,520
I mean, level of delusion.

636
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:44,520
- Yeah.

637
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:45,520
- Girl.

638
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:52,600
- I mean, okay, listen, I'm not going to shit on somebody for going for their dreams.

639
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,640
And if you a passion project, sure.

640
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,280
But it's just, I mean, okay, she had what was it?

641
00:29:58,280 --> 00:29:59,280
$20 million to make this?

642
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,040
- She would have $20 million of her own money.

643
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:02,040
- Yeah.

644
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:03,040
- But not all the money.

645
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:04,040
- Must be nice.

646
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:05,040
- Other people put money into it.

647
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:06,040
- Yeah.

648
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,760
Like I wish I had $20 million to do an passion project to prove that I love my husband.

649
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,480
I don't know.

650
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:15,240
And comparing herself to Beyonce and things, like we kind of alluded in the beginning,

651
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,680
that J-Lo doesn't sing a lot of her own songs.

652
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:24,120
As you mentioned earlier, Ashanti sang on "Antit Funny" and "I'm Real."

653
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:28,000
The song play is all Christina Million.

654
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:33,080
Ginny from the block was rumored to be sung by a woman named Natasha Raymos, who demoed

655
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:39,920
the song and then "Ant your mama," or one of her more recent hits, "It's Megan Trainor."

656
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:40,920
It's 100% Megan Trainor.

657
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:41,920
- Oh wow.

658
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:42,920
- Yeah.

659
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:47,620
If you re-listen to that song after we record this and the entire chorus, you're like, "That's

660
00:30:47,620 --> 00:30:48,620
Megan Trainor."

661
00:30:48,620 --> 00:30:49,620
- That's Megan Trainor.

662
00:30:49,620 --> 00:30:52,400
- And their voices don't even sound similar, which is funny.

663
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,600
So a lot of these people have come out and said, "Yeah."

664
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:59,400
Either I recorded these songs first and then J-Lo recorded them over them.

665
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:04,080
And then I'm kind of like the background vocal and not credited.

666
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:08,560
Megan Trainor famously has written a lot of songs for other artists, but those are straight

667
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,440
up her vocals on this.

668
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,120
I feel like J-Lo's talented.

669
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:15,720
I would say that she's more talented as an actress than as a singer.

670
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:16,720
- Yes, for sure.

671
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:21,320
- If she didn't have such a grife to prove that she could sing, she could dance, she could

672
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:22,320
act like a dancer.

673
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:23,320
- She's a great dancer.

674
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:29,280
If she didn't put all of her eggs into being a really good actress, she would have done

675
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:30,280
that.

676
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:31,280
- I totally agree.

677
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,360
- That's why when I was watching the movie, it was like, "Isn't a bad movie?

678
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,320
The music is so bad."

679
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:40,800
Like, she's dancing throughout it and it is good dancing and she's like choreographing

680
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:45,760
it, but the music is so bad that you really can't do it.

681
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:47,600
And she had multiple producers on that.

682
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,760
- She's just like, "Girl, I don't know."

683
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:56,160
- If you guys were in charge of J-Lo's team, what would be your advice now in order to

684
00:31:56,160 --> 00:32:00,840
kind of get her out of this hole, this cringe cycle where everyone's saying she's

685
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:07,040
unrelatable, she's cringe, she's flaunting herself, she's rude.

686
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,680
What is your, if you're in charge of her team, what do you do?

687
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:10,680
What do you think, Nicole?

688
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:12,640
- Give me all your money.

689
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,920
No, I'm just joking.

690
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,520
What is your advice to her if you're in charge of her?

691
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,800
- I'd probably tell her just to kind of lay out of the, I know she's not really in the

692
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:26,280
spotlight right now, but kind of just lay out of the spotlight.

693
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:27,280
Just don't go out.

694
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:28,280
I don't know.

695
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:29,280
- Big advantage.

696
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:30,280
- Yeah.

697
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:31,280
- That's what I mean.

698
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:32,760
You have your assistant.

699
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:33,760
I know, I don't know.

700
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:37,920
Stop chicken likes her assistant, who knows, but have your assistant go out and do stuff

701
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:38,920
for you?

702
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,560
That's what they're there for.

703
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:41,560
Just, yeah, lay low.

704
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,560
- Lay low will hold eyes down.

705
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:44,560
- Lay low will hold eyes down.

706
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:45,560
- Yeah.

707
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:46,560
- Mine's polar opposite.

708
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:47,560
Interested.

709
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:57,160
So I say that she goes full expose on Tommy Metola and what Tommy Metola used her to get

710
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,000
back at Mariah Carey for.

711
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:00,000
Interested.

712
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,280
I think she goes full warfare on Diddy.

713
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:05,080
- Oh, there it is.

714
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:06,080
- There it is.

715
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:12,760
- Given everything with Diddy being rated, I think that she talks a lot, like I think she

716
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,720
needs to rip the bandaid off about being an industry plant.

717
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:20,840
And just say, here's my experience, here's how I got into the business.

718
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:22,480
And like here's what it is.

719
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:27,800
And because everyone knows that JLo is so fake and that's the problem.

720
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:33,120
I think if she would talk about how she came into the industry and came from a backup dancer

721
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:38,040
to this person who's incredibly famous because a record executive wanted to get back at

722
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,560
Mariah Carey, who's his wife at the time.

723
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,040
Like it is such an interesting story.

724
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:48,280
And she's trying to address it, but in such a fake and manufactured way.

725
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,400
- That's the thing is actually be real.

726
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:51,400
- Be real.

727
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:55,400
- Like she's creating an image right now where she's trying like, oh, I'm being so authentic

728
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:56,400
and vulnerable.

729
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:57,400
- But she keeps saying.

730
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:01,400
- She's trying to figure out it that it's a meta version of her life.

731
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,600
And I'm like, yeah, we don't think you understand what meta means.

732
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:05,600
- Yeah.

733
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:06,600
- First of all, no.

734
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,600
- And then like we all see through this.

735
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:09,600
- Exactly.

736
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:10,920
- And actually people are making fun of her.

737
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,760
- People are craving authenticity.

738
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:18,440
And I mean, obviously celebrities do their own privacy.

739
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,040
They don't need to tell us every detail of their lives.

740
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:25,120
But if you're going to go and say like, this is me being vulnerable and like authentic.

741
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:26,120
- This is me.

742
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,440
- Be fucking vulnerable and authentic.

743
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,440
- Well, I thought I was really introducing myself.

744
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,880
- There's a part where like it's kind of like documentary style.

745
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:36,120
She's wearing that black turtle neck.

746
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,800
And Ben Affleck is the one asking her all of the questions.

747
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:41,480
And it is really vulnerable.

748
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:42,480
- Yeah.

749
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:43,480
- And she's talking about it.

750
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:44,880
And it's because of his questions though.

751
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:50,440
He's like, do you forgive me for 20 years ago, 20 years ago?

752
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:54,800
And every moment that he was interviewing her, I was like, oh, okay.

753
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,720
I could like this J-Lo.

754
00:34:56,720 --> 00:34:59,200
- Yeah, I could like this fake J-Lo.

755
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:00,200
- I think that's the thing.

756
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:04,560
And what I would say if I was in charge of her team is show people the real you.

757
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:05,920
Show them what it's like to you.

758
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:11,000
Like you said, be like a woman in your 50s who's had to work through this entire industry

759
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,200
and work your way up and claw for what you have.

760
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:19,560
And I mean, show your actual skin care routine without filters if that's what you want to

761
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,560
do.

762
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:25,360
And if you really want to rep the Bronx, go and do some good things for the past.

763
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:26,360
Go donate.

764
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,880
I mean, actually get your feet in the ground.

765
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:36,040
I mean, don't do it just for a photo up and show up for one day with your entire entourage.

766
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:40,480
Maybe go and shake some dirty hands of the calm and the soul.

767
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:41,480
- Make eye contact.

768
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,480
- I mean, check the whole thing.

769
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:45,480
- She did put her hands in mud.

770
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:46,480
- Yeah.

771
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:47,480
- Oh god.

772
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:48,800
- The mud part was shit.

773
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:49,800
- It needs to be thicker.

774
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:50,800
- And it's water.

775
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:51,800
- Good god.

776
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:52,800
Fix my mud.

777
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,880
- It made me so mad when they were like, oh, let's bring the mud over and just like, I don't

778
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:57,880
have time.

779
00:35:57,880 --> 00:35:58,880
- Yeah.

780
00:35:58,880 --> 00:35:59,880
- I'm like, girl, what are you doing?

781
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:00,880
You're going, probably going back home.

782
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:01,880
- Yeah.

783
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:02,880
- Show out.

784
00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:03,880
- You can't wait for them out.

785
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:04,880
- Girl.

786
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:05,880
- Yeah.

787
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:06,880
- My servant.

788
00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:07,880
My servant.

789
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:08,880
- Yeah.

790
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:09,880
Pretty much.

791
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:14,000
- Well, I hope J.Lo listens to this and gets some good advice from us.

792
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:19,480
I think we all need to take our hair out and just run up and down the block.

793
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:24,560
