Yeah until we get to the finish line
Just so I can talk about it here on the podcast. Please. Okay, go into it. Don't say I never do anything for you
No, I'm currently in the early stages, so it's complicated. It is complicated
Someone reached out to me on LinkedIn. It was clearly fake and I was like they were like would you like to talk?
I was like, you know what yeah
Because if you're reaching out to me on LinkedIn, honey, I'm not active. Yeah, so if I'm seeing that I'm like okay
Sure, whatever
Could not explain what it was, but they had two potential paths forward for me, you know, based on my experience
Yeah, so it's like okay great
So they're like well, would you like to schedule time to talk? I'm like
Sure, why not? Yeah
schedule like a 20 minute like calendarly like exploratory thing
Yeah, so with this what was the company here? So I can't name I won't name names because I am obviously
Gathering information for our big documentary. Of course. Yeah, like our missing
Yeah, so this week we will be bringing you live from jail Greg is
Right, I somehow like made it to the top. I'm the taking the fall. You're the just lane
I just
Can I say it honey for us? It's good lane, but we all don't need to
Yeah, I do have two trainings that I've agreed to
Oh, no, we gotta try to get you out. Yeah, I do not I'm worried again. I am moving things on my schedule to make this work
Yeah, I am trying to figure it out. So just stay tuned. You know what I want to bring to the pod. Oh, okay. I don't
It
This is something that we have all been subject to hopefully you haven't because then you would have been spared
But I am done watching the CEOs of every fast food chain
Eating a burger. Yeah, this whole thing going around
Starting with McDonald's and then Burger King and now I'm up to like Tommy's original burger
Eating their burger to prove that they actually eat their own food. Yeah, and I'm not this enough guys
Enough I
Listen, I get it and for a while it was like oh, this is kind of funny to watch them
And then now I'm literally like I don't want to see this content. Well, yeah, I mean it's making me starving
It's making me starving one and two. It's like we all know you're not eating that food. We I'm eating nothing
willingly
Don't waste the burger babe because I would love to have that
Are you going to finish it all? Yeah, you're all talk. I need to see you finish it. I am
Salivating watching these things like it's a missed opportunity for you and I
We would sell the shit out of that
Oh, no McDonald's CEO burger CEO burger see a burger see a burger CEO TM
Haha reach out to us. We will eat that burger live on a front-facing camera
I will do one of those like eating contests with your burgers like I will break the world record
Yeah, you will not even you won't believe what you've seen
I will shove that burger down my throat and make it look well
I don't know if it would look appetizing to others because I can't control myself
But that also is actually how you're supposed to eat a burger with no control
Not using a napkin not talking about like the the top notes of this burger
Right, you know, the sesame seed like specially like curated sesame seed sesame seed
Cheshame yeah, I just don't take a drug test after you those
And it's like who eats a burger or a fry one fry at a time each of them is eating one fry at a time
It's like get real
No, these people are psychopaths. It's full bagonia out there. Yeah, like it's like if if bagonia
We we're realizing in real time that bagonia is actually based on a true story
And it's like all these fast food CEOs and with that I think we it's time to get into dot mom sauce
AKA
Doll of the day mother of the moment sister of the second our first and most famous segment where we take a person
Place or thing that we are currently super obsessed with yes
Would you like to go first? I can happily go first. I actually have to
I know I have to as well really yeah, okay
Well, I couldn't decide because I'm equally obsessed with both of these okay
The first one has already been brought to the pod and now I'm officially in the fold
love story
On fx slash hulu
Is so for using its christian
Exactly because I don't actually know which one it's like
Yeah, chicken or the egg
Is it hulu that's what is the pathway? Yeah, we don't know we don't know but we don't need to know
I'm happy it exists. Yeah, and this show is the I have not been so obsessed with a narrative
fictionalized show non-reality wow in so long I
Mainlined it seven episodes. Is it done? No, there's nine. So there's like two more or three more left and we're not going off the rails
No, it's getting so good. Okay, and it is like perfectly cast. It's everything Mike had said
I'm Sarah pigeon is a star, but it's also it's just like the five
It is the top of the the chimneys. Yes, exactly. Yes, she and she and this is okay
I don't know oh no you are a crown girl, right? You love the crown huge crown. Okay, this is the crown
For America. Yeah, yeah, like because it is American. It is worth yes
Which is America and which is why you love it? Yeah, it's for dummies
It literally is so if you are missing the crown. This is the air to that. Okay
I'm gonna need to get into it. It's so like and every way it feels like you know because
This is my okay my pitch to you. It's later seasons the crown where the budget has fallen
and and the like the
Storylines are like sometimes amazing and sometimes good not bad, but like it's like it's always kind of waving in like either an amazing
Or really good, but never like goes bad or whatever well you know what I think the problem with the
Crown was the recent history of it all yeah, because when I think you when you had the old ones
You were so removed that you were kind of like
Sharing to the audience like about this thing that happened and you could he was able to sort of like
Made fictionalized you get away with the situation. Yes, yes this because it's like it's in the 90s
Which one it's like so it's like there's certain things work is also I don't know if you saw the Darryl Hanna coming out against the show
I've heard which by the way her so that they that they cast give her the Oscar. It is so Darryl Hanna
It's so funny the boys that she does I see but I heard that they like are so
They are well they're not offensive, but they someone hates Darryl
No, it's it's just like for the fictionalized thing they like basically
This is not really giving anything away, but it's like at one point
It's like she throws a party at us place and there's tons of coke and she's like I never did that
So it's like there are certain things where like well, we can see why they're doing it for the story
But like and why you would be offended that it's like well, it's making me seem like I'm this big like
Coke addict or something you know, okay
But it is so just like everything that you want as far as like the fashion
um the
Like period
Like all of the people from that time here that you want to see basically it's like this is what I would say
It's like only the Diana storylines on the crown. Yeah, do you know what I mean? Yeah, it's like it's none of the boring ones
It's like it's literally like every time on the crown when it's like okay
And now we're going away from Diana and we're gonna be doing like less interesting ones
This is just literally a super cut of all of the Diana scenes sure and so it's such well wester filament
He is so hot. It's like it's ridiculous. It's perfect casting
Um, and I gotta say Naomi Watts as
Jack is
Well
We're regardless of what it's happening on this green. It is endlessly watchable sure always you cannot stop watching
I am so excited. Yeah for you to join this the strain. I yeah
I have been moving about a little too much to like get into a new series
But I am I well, I mean obviously we know how it ends. Yeah, so like I
I'm looking forward to it
I I need to see it before tiktok completely ruins it because now we have like
Gen Zers like dressing as dressing as them and they're like how we would dress as JFK junior and
What's a why am I not carrying a set? Yeah, and and they're doing like it's just they're standing around like with a shirt over their shoulder
Like but that being said I am very excited for especially since people seem to be raving about it
Well, I think the thing that is so impressive about it is
To it it the character of Carolyn beset they have really made it so that you you all you really care about is her
Storyline when the Kennedys are obviously endlessly fascinating like you don't like wait
There's a reason that there's like a hundred different tv shows and movies throughout the years about the Kennedy
And so like we're garrulous of what's happening like you I normally just want to be like well
Let me hear about all of the Kennedys and and and the and the Ethel Kennedy and like the all of the lore and the and the richness of the mansions and all these things
But then they said yeah to do a gray gardens bottle episode
True. Oh, I wish what if episode eight is the gray gardens
Well, they are teasing episode eight is crazy. So maybe okay
But it is one of the things where like her character is so well done
Yeah, that you are actually like it's impossible not to fall in love with her
And it's also like do a really good job of being like this is the reason my heat fell for her is because she is so
Well famously as we talked about last week. She's smoking a cigarette and and she's always
Sortings back babe. I'm sorry. Don't believe she's leaving. She's she knows how to make an exit. Yeah, okay
She's always leaving you wanting more that's the test of a real New Yorker. Yeah
If they know how to make an exit seamlessly
Get to know them. That's a person you need to know. That is what I need to work on in 2026. Yeah, I need to work on a stylish
Exit because I'm gonna take some yeah, most people are sort of like okay
I'm gonna leave them wanting more me. I'm sort of like I'm gonna wait until actually I should have left 20 minutes
And I'm gonna sort of be like how's your mom?
What's what's what's what was it like growing up with her and they're like I actually have to leave right wait wait wait
Just one quick question. What's the dynamic with you and your sister?
The host is in bed. Yeah alarm set. I'm asked on you're like so do you have anything else to eat? I'm kind of hungry
Hey, just in case do you want some more? Yeah, this party do you mind if I go for a bit? Yeah, I'm having such a great time
Should I get in there? Yeah, it's cozy. Oh my god want to watch a show. Yeah. Yeah, okay
And then my other my other big one and this is the biggest shock of them all
This movie you I know you've never heard of it because I had never heard of it. I saw it this weekend. Oh
Okay
Nirvana the band the show the movie. Okay, so they're doing high school musical the TV show the movie the TV show the Olivia
Rodrigo movie exactly I have you have heard of it actually heard of this if I know nothing about it and you do not know anything about it
Okay, so I'm gonna thread that needles
I talk about this because I really think all the Jennifer should go out and see this movie. I saw it in theaters
It is the funniest comedy
Screams haven't you won't see the bride you won't see anything and you're seeing Nirvana the movie the the band the movie the show the TV movie
Keep going yep exactly. It is the longest to do sure the musical
Exactly. Yeah, the live event. Uh-huh. It is
Well, one the what gets me is good reviews. I'm so sorry to the bride which we will get to at a later point
Yes, but this is I had heard from people who I trust their comedy taste that it is very funny
And they did a very good job of being like it's funny, but they're not overhyping it which I'm also but it's just
It's been so long that I've been in a theater where like
Everyone Goldie Haun says this isn't my queen Goldie Haun says that the kiss of God is when everyone in a theater is laughing their ass off
I love that quote. Yeah, and to me that on my tombstone kiss of God and there is that name
And no me once he was
And there was a moment in this that I know you like it is it's like the less you know the better
But they have multiple moments of just like it's also just very okay first off
It is unfortunately so straight. So it's like a very big deal that I'm talking about this. That's why I I just I can't take it off with me
Like it is it is very straight everyone like take a deep breath in and and then release
But I but you know what every so often the straights get it right
Listen they they they've been right before and it is it's a very impressive filmmaking like you will
I don't like I'm it's very hard to talk about it without talking about it
But it is like what I will just say this they filmed part of it in 2008
And then they filmed the rest of it in that it's very boyhood in that regard okay
And it's like what they did to make those two match because it wasn't purposeful
It was because this movie was made for zero dollars. Yeah, and it is so theatrical release somehow. It's very Canadian
It's it's yeah, it's like a big Canadian TV show that then now is becoming a movie
And it is and you don't need to have seen that I didn't I've never seen the TV show to know anything about it before I went in
It will make you laugh your ass off if you like back to the future
You're going to love this. It is you've never seen back in the future. Don't talk to me like that
Don't don't say that close your mouth when you talk to me
And don't like that and this podcast right now and go watch it. I think I've seen which also is very straight too
I know it wasn't but of course and and with so much love have been Martin McFly like 800 times
But if you think I've actually seen the movie sorry, but Greg what is your Don Mumsus?
Well, I have you know, I have I have two
They're not like things that I I'm gonna go too deep on because they're probably very
Okay, niche okay, so I spent the weekend in
Tahoe which was absolutely astonishing. I was in heavenly. I was which is like
Right where California and Nevada like meet so I was listen. I was traveling the world this weekend
But I wanted to give a shout out to the way I got there and back which was the airline
Jet sweet x never heard of it. It's not real. It might not be real
You really might not be real so jet sweet x is like
a small like
It is a full-blown airline
But they use like small semi-private planes
Like and they only go a few places first of all they go out of they go through Burbank, which is like
The the most luxurious thing of like an airline could do. I don't want to ever be on a small plane
Hello one jfk junior in Carlin beset. Well, I haven't watched it yet
Well, you know, you know, consciously. Yeah, I put it off until I got back the i-trip
I normally would agree with that
But this airline was so nice you literally just have to show up to Burbank like a half hour before
And then you just like to just go through like a they give you your boarding pass. They take two bags
They give you free booze on the fly. I mean, it's such a like a short flight
But they have great snacks. It was just like a really really easy breezy way to get to and from Reno
I wouldn't say that like my experience at the budget run to car
On either end of that was super fantastic, but um on the way is we spent a little time in Reno on the way back
Because you have to drive like an hour
To to and from the mountain and uh when we got back to Reno we went to this market
um
And it's like it's maybe 10 minutes from the airport because Reno is the best little biggest city of the smallest city of the earth
Yeah, as they say on the side right that's the famous thing about you know
Um, but there was this great like market. It was actually really cool. There was all this food and when we walked in
There was line dancing happening in the middle
So random yeah, but within the market there is I guess it's a famous like uh
I guess it's like a thrift store. It's called junkie
The j-u-n-k-e-e-e-e
But I could have spent hours in this place. They had so much cool stuff
There was a lot of like burning man stuff too because I forgot and Reno
That's like where they all stopped and like stay
I listen all light and love to Reno, but I think it is the ugliest name there is just something about like the
And then the word no
Yeah, it's very like okay, like how about it's
It's just nails and a chalkboard and yeah
I think that the only way you can make it cute is if you make name it one of your pets Reno
Then it becomes a little cute and I and I do think you can because I know that you do have a tendency to name your dogs after places
Well, you did it once. Yeah, I don't think I'm sort of going through the roll-it-ex of my dogs names
And I'm not I'm not getting place a time or place. Well, I'm just I'm just just gifting that to you
Oh, I actually just want you to claim Reno back so that I can actually like the name sure
And I think it would be I can hear you screaming Reno
It feels very like gay man with a small dog. Well, yeah, well, it's so anything goes coated Reno sweetie of course
I know that yeah, yeah back to junkie. Oh, yeah, no, it's but it also has it's huge
Like they could never have a place like that in LA where it's just like basically just a bunch of junk and also thrift clothes
And into my apartment. Oh, right. Well, yeah underneath where we're filming. It's just all junk
But yeah, I I loved it so much. I got a cute shirt not wearing it
But I did get one. Yeah, and yeah
I I had a great time and there was a place also another little shout out
This is my third dog mom's us didn't walk in there, but there was a place right by this market called filthy
McNasties
and
Everyone knew you there and the CEO of that place ate a burger
And it was the best one yet. Yeah, it reminded me of that always sunny episode speaking of straight that always sunny episode
Where they like go back in time to the old bar called Shadinasties, but it spelled shady nasties
Now that is I've famously never seen but I show that it's ever existed
I know and I know it's really funny. It's also it's just overwhelming because there are 45 seasons and I'm not exaggerating
No, I'll give you some really good ones to start the first one the the one that I always recommend people start with is the one where
D gets stuck in a well
Okay, there are some episodes of always sunny that I could watch
700 times
Okay, you sold me wow. This is like our straight episode
This is our recommending straight content. Yeah, and with that we've got more coming
A little bit of gay stuff, too. Yeah, all right. Okay. It's time for break. Yeah
Recently our company softball team lost the big game by one run then Dale tried to console us with the quote
Winning isn't everything. Dale's a loser. I played a win like early payout from Beth 365 if my team goes up big
I could pay it out instantly even if they blow the lead later
Sound familiar, Dale
Beth 365 winning is everything
Gamely problem call 100 gambler 21 plus only must be physically located in Virginia T&C's apply in Apple only
We're back and it's time for our missing of the week
Armisting hey listen. We are currently recording this before the Oscars
But we feel confident watch us have egg on our face, but we feel confident that we are about to that when you are listening to this
It will be the newly crowned winner a best actress
Armisting the week is
Jesse Buckley
I mean listen
I feel confident saying that because we have not had such a sure thing in
Upwards of a decade. This is actually what I'm excited about is this is the first Oscar season in a really long time that three of the categories are up for grabs
So normally at this point it's such a
Snorfs because the same four people divine Randolph joy has already won every single award. Yeah, it's the same best-supporting best-supporting actress best-supporting actor and best actor
They've all three of those and every different one has been like a new. It's a either Timothy or it's Michael
Be Jordan. It's Tiana Taylor or it's I'm forgetting her name
Madigan who seems like she will win, but it could also be the woman from sinners
There are so many love sentimental value as I just watched it. I know I know Inga is and my god
That movie Jennifer's if you have not seen sentimental value do yourself a favor this movie is so
breathtakingly brilliant
Beautiful. We're not talking about that today. There's only one thing that we know to be true in 2026
And that it is that Jesse Buckley is going to win best actress
She should because it is truly that whale that she does and that one scene
We know everyone seen it at this point. Yeah, it is give her every word of all time. Yeah, I think it's like
She's been given well Jesse Buckley is
She has been such an acclaimed actress for so long such a sure thing for so long, but she has not been given her
Breakthrough role. Yeah, like at least it internationally or like in America and Hamlet is just you've got Chloe
Shout directing it
That and I was gonna say off of that not to catch you off
But I think Jesse Buckley and I know that this phrase is overdone, but I think it's so applies to her
Jesse Buckley is your favorite directors favorite actress
Every single like you look at the credits. It's like
Men directed by Alex Garland you have I'm thinking of ending things with Charlie Kaufman right you have
She was in Fargo. I don't know the director, but that that Noah Howell. Oh, yeah, I just came to
On effects. Yeah, I missed that. She was in Chernobyl
Literally it is and then on okay, then it's obviously
Maggie Gyllenhaal's original breakthrough the lost daughter. Yes, she is in so I'm and her new breakthrough in a different way
The bride exactly when then Chloe Zhao, but it is like her if you look at if you just go and look at the
Directors that have directed her. Yeah, it is so clear that like the people who have taste who every actor is
Clamoring to work with they're busy because they are working with Jesse Buckley exactly
Yeah, I mean her name has been like
Around around yeah, like the awards conversation for a very long time
But yeah, she's been giving the role that has
Started it all in a different way hammed that um, it's a you know
Say what you will about the movie. I know a lot of people love it
I know a lot of people are like less into it, but like the performance at the center of it and there's so
The performance is throughout that movie by the way best I've ever seen Paul Mescal
I think he's really like astonishing. He is in his part
You know, I can be a jupe as
This really is our straight episode because I'm I'm I really
I'm about to I really think that Paul Mescal is the male actor of
Of that of the Gen Z generation. I'm I'm gonna say a lot of straight comments
We already have, but that to me is I really just think that he is it well Paul
I felt like and and maybe I just haven't I haven't watched normal people
I feel like is sacrilegious because I also read the book before the show came out so I don't know
FX for hulu, you know, I wear it. We don't always have hulu and I think that's the issue. Yeah, but uh, I find him to be
And it's also on Disney Plus, which is the other it's like what are you doing here? What are we doing here? That's for kids
Yeah, exactly
Disney Plus is for kids. Yeah
My favorite streamer just kidding. Yeah
But yeah, no, I think but Jesse is like
so
Unlike anyone else. She's so strong. She's so I think it's like sturdy
There is something there isn't a neat talent that you cannot
Uh, mold or bring out of someone or teach. Yeah, and my favorite thing about her if you ever see her because you know
I love myself a press junket. Uh-huh
She is such a girls girl. We didn't even say that she was in um women talking Sarah Polly
I know so many actresses who are like dying to work with Sarah Polly
It is like every actor wants to work with these directors and she's getting them
She's fucking batten them away because she's so and it's like I think it's because it's like not only is she
Incredibly talented, but she is just like a good time. She is always working with female directors
Yeah, I love that and it's like all she wants is to like have a pint talk in that crooked smile the best crooked smile
The best mouth works in Claire Danes that hung smile. Yeah, I saw a tweet
That showed her and the famous last scene of hamlet if you have not seen this movie
It's it's a tragedy. Yeah, and we get to hamlet, which you probably heard of we get to hamlet by the end
And just that's a spoiler, but not really and there is a moment where she's looking up at hamlet
Onstage and she flashes that
Side smile. Yeah, that hung. Yeah
Smile curved to the left. Yeah, she she knows what she's packing
She is she is the most cock short actress out there
I couldn't agree more. Uh-huh, and I think
To me it has never been more clear that like when you look back at like a judy drench or like a halon mirror
And you're like what what must they have been like when they were young? Yeah, and when I see Jesse Buckley
I'm like you are without a doubt with every fiber of my being we you are going to like age
Gracefully get so many different nominations. Yeah, I'm
I'm in love with her a lifetime of work ahead
Well, you know my favorite thing about Jesse Buckley as it's my favorite thing about Emma Stone
Is that she got her start on a reality show singing yeah, she got her start on a musical theater reality competition show called
I'll do anything yeah where she was competing to play Nancy in Oliver and there was yeah on the west end
She came in second
The country had fallen in love with her
Andrew Lloyd Webber had fallen in love with her and thought she was the best choice for the role even though he didn't write Oliver
Yeah, sir Andrew Lloyd, you know, the billionaire of London like one of the biggest names in musical theater ever
And there is actually clip going around now that I love so much. I'm seeing him so so much of Liza
Minnelli coaching her on maybe this time from cabaret and Liza's like she's got it
Not to mention I don't know if you know this a few years ago Jesse Buckley played
Yeah, she was the star she played Sally Bulls in cabaret on the west end in that incredible
revival
Didn't really do numbers here, but the one in London was it's still playing
It's a huge ticket like every time you go and she played Sally Bulls in cabaret and you seeing this clip of Liza
Who won an Oscar for playing Sally Bulls in cabaret like teaching a young coaching a young Jesse Buckley
It is such it's so emotional and full circle for me and I love how like
Jesse is not embarrassed by that
By the fact that she had a reality show start and Emma Stone did too and like the now
Tiana Taylor this is a an award season of all the actors being nominated got their start in reality
say
Me too. Yeah, and where is my Oscar is coming next year. Yeah, yeah, your Oscar is coming
Yeah, that's actually that was a tick that my friend brought
I think all we could your husband is coming so good. Yeah
Raise the album coming out soon. Can I know Nightingale? Oh, okay. Well back to Jesse. Yeah, which is what I was gonna say full circle moment with you saying
Liza Manelli she was in duty as like she was not if they're not a big a big role, but she was in duty and of course I remember and also
That was her real fire win
Renee and Judy yeah on the her other huge breakout was the Rose or the Wild Rose
I can't remember Wild Rose people love it. I know she sings in it and and it was like and she was also in beast
It's like the credits are she's also sort of your favorite actress where you've never seen any of her work
No, you know to change your life without you having seen it. No, she is excellent. Yeah, it just a a so strong and everything
Gonna see that one day or maybe not can't find it on any streamer
It's also of every any person out there. She's the person you most want to have a pint with and I never want to have a pint
Don't I know what's a pint, but Jesse asked me to have a pint with her. I'm drinking a pint. Yeah. Yeah, that Guinness top
You know what I mean like Guinness lip. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, and she and she's laughs
Yeah, and she's with her hunksmile
Her milk her Guinness mustache with her hunksmile and she is gonna like she's also someone who I feel like she
But do you want to like dance and then she takes the lead obviously y'all
She's yeah, and she randomly knows like a lot of different cultural dances, but like from the UK
Yeah, I read it. Yeah, but she's the old like just stomping pirate dances. She knows them all and to bring back her thing from last week
Yeah, oh
How I would let Jesse Buckley taught me absolutely actually I want to ask you okay, which of the best actress nominees
Would you let top you you got Jesse Buckley? Yeah
Rose burn Kate Hudson
For some some glue. Yeah, Renata Ryan's the okay, which oh this is hard. Yeah, or
Emma Stone we're going. Yeah
Okay, this is actually I'm gonna walk you through it. Okay, sure. Yeah, you can you can rank them
Okay top five Kate Hudson
I would like her to taught me in a way that I feel like it would be very
sensual psychedelic. We would be on something. Yeah
I feel like there'd be a lot of long caresses and I would sort of like in the moment
I think it's kind of slow and then afterwards. I would be like I need to have it again. Yeah very visual
It's like the night you'll never forget. Yeah, and you need to
She's set the mood. Yeah, she has put I miss you by Adele on totally, but also yeah, and it is led you
Yeah, you're like it's very asked to trip. She's still got that almost famous
Aquila. Yeah, um Renata Ryan's the it she would truly touch parts of the inside of me that I didn't know existed
She's in your second your third your fourth hall. Oh, she is sort of
Holding me down and I am just like living for it. Right. You're crying. You're you're feeling like so many different things
You're like what
As soon as it's over, I'm sort of like
So we should do that again sometime and she's sort of like maybe you know, yeah, you know, and you're like oh
Renata. Yeah, she'd be like wouldn't you like that and walk out and then
Emma Stone for me
I'm gonna be laughing the whole time and that's the best kind of sex is when it's like you're laughing and
Like it's like hot. Yeah, and so like we'll be very connective. Uh
Rose
Rose is gonna look deep into my eyes. I'm gonna forget who I am and then we've got the mama
Jama Jesse Buckley
Jesse to me is someone who I and I mean is not in a bad way. I will have bruises and bite marks. Yeah
The earth is gonna shake
There'll be like aftershocks, you know, the rains come
Yeah, like the elements
She she transfers you know how women can have like seven orgasms that like once back to back
Yeah, but you're the woman. Yeah. Yeah, she gives me that gift. She's a multiple orgasms
But you have but you have control somehow. It's like that. Yeah, the hawk looks you in that like at just yeah
Earth and the elements are at play and then you look at Jesse and you say you just won your Oscar. Yeah
Uh-huh. Yeah, you look at Jesse and you say
Jacobi Jouk is
Hamnut and of course no, no, no
You look at her you look at her you look at Jesse Buckley and the eye you say
Introducing Jacobi Jouk as hamnut and featuring no love Jouk as hamlet
And then you both fucking explode with calm at the same time
No hands. I know Rihanna's we found love starts playing Greg. How do you make Jesse Buckley all about yourself?
Well, uh, I mean just a few weeks back
I I had the most Jesse Buckley experience of my life
I sort of know exactly where I was going with this
hamnut is
An emotional rollercoaster and as you know
Astrologically a lot is happening right now. Well as I tell you repeatedly a new sort of like blankly stay
I sort of famously feel like you say that like every day. Well, yeah, I mean I use it as an excuse
Well, you know, I'm like Greg you're just stuck in an mln
Oh, that's probably true. Yeah, but but no currently it's mercury retrograde
We're in the middle of eclipse season
There's a lot of like planetary alignments and I don't like to use that all the time, but like when
Astrology is very like rocky and you're getting like
Warning signs from the astrologers like I like to you know
Calm things down. So a few weeks ago. I was having just like a very it happened right after the eclipses
I was having like a very rocky few days like one of my dogs like
Had an issue with like his anal gland and it like burst randomly one day and I like took happening
Yeah, I had to go to the vet and like of course for no good reason my vet is like a full hour away
Yeah, I have to wait. It's like a full day thing. I bring my other dog with me completely fine
Come home the next day. He the other dog like it's just there's an I need to go back to the vet
Just so much is happening my schedules completely haywire and
There is another animal at my house that I was you know
I've taken care of at the moment
So I recently got my first fish
We have fish at my house. You know that I look forward to seeing the one outside right you have multiple fish
We have multiple fish. Yeah, we have fish outside
We started like we recently moved and like we've started like putting fish in the house because like they're energetic
They're energy movers and they're energy sponges and and oh what have you
Um, and they're very like meditative and but I have never had I would always be like a minute earlier to your place
But I always stop and say hi to the fish outside you do
Yeah, I love yeah, I want to see and I always sort of think that there's more
And like is this a new one? I'm like oh no, it's the same one because it's a big pond that you have yeah, yeah
um and
But I got a benefit which I've never had I've never like had my own yeah
Except for like when I was a kid
And this one is like an alien
Benefit so it's really like alpha beta sure
So I've been taking care of this fish. I've been really enjoying it
He's been like a really like interesting
The new addition to like my day and my spirit and everything and vat also got one my husband also got one
And they're like into separate tanks like next to each other
Um, so I had to go back to the vet again
This was the day after an eclipse which like spooks me out. I'm very like on use like in hamlet or hamlet
Jesse Buckley's character where I'm very like in the wood like very like connected to the animals and the creatures and everything
So you sleep outside
Yeah, I'm a she's on use. I'm a noose
So I have been spent the entire morning at the vet for this third time actually that week
And I was really like a discombobulated I get back to the house. It's like maybe like noon
I get some crazy news on my phone as I get off the car like out as I'm getting out of the car like
Offering me this opportunity that I cannot refuse to be my own boss
And I am completely thrown inside your life away
I walk into the house with the dog the dogs are both good because they get to the vet
Of course, there's nothing wrong with them the second they get to the vet
And I walk over to the trash can to throw something out and I see something on the floor
And it's like
black like this black figure
And I'm like what the hell is that so I bend down and I'm like looking expecting it closely and I'm like wait a second
That looks like and I look up at my fish tank
the alien
Must have jumped out of the tank
Thrashed all across the counter landed on the floor outside of the trash and fried
in the sun
The scream I let out
The devastated scream I let out when I found out that my fish had killed itself
And sizzled in the sun
Wow
Jesse Buckley if there was a camera on me
Jesse Buckley would not win that award this year. Yeah, I cannot take that in
That
Fried my brain, but yeah, that's that's where where I'm at today
That's where I've been at for the last few weeks and I think that was the apex of everything
You know, so yeah, anus to anus dust to dust. Yeah, wow. It's what every gay person says
Right before the absex
Yeah, in case you were wondering what that's actually like. Yeah, that's what happens behind closed doors
Yeah, I can't believe I let it out of the back
Well, so now that I've shared my trauma porn which me on the podcast
That is actually a perfect transition because I have some trauma porn to share. Oh good
So when I think of Jesse Buckley, I think of
One of the best TV shows to ever do it, which is turnover
Of course, I know you have not seen it not a firm, but it is so good, and she is so good in it
I totally believe that and
Ah, this takes me I'm going back to Boston yet again. This takes me to a time this is our straight episode
By the way, this story is so straight. Oh god. It's a straight story. I think I've ever told great
So and it's traumatic so it's like
You know, hold my hand as I tell this story which is I um was having a bad day. It was winter. Hmm. It was
like height
Height of winter where it's like gets dark at four p.m. Right. It's frigid in Boston. It's so cold
I like remember I didn't get any sleep
I was in like a rotten mood because like I knew I had to I was supposed to start like a term paper that I hadn't started and I was like
12 pages long and the teacher hated me
Yeah, what I did and so I was like I have to pull an all-nighter for I know I'm not even gonna get a good grade
Because this teacher just like has it out for me
Yeah, as you know, I think everyone in Boston needs to just go to therapy
That teacher should have done. Yeah, and you know, I can't stand the teacher being mad at me
So of course, that's your biggest nightmare. Yeah, and so I was just like in a I like it was just one of those days
We were like you woke up and you immediately wanted it to be the next day. Yeah, I'm over this day. Uh-huh
And my best friend Pat reshaped to me and he was like hey, do you want to go get lunch?
And I was being like a real grump and I was like no
And he was could tell that I was in a mood. He was like come on
It will like get you out of your funk and I was like no
I just like want to sit in this bed and do nothing for the rest of time
You know one of those really fun moods. Yeah
And then he finally convinces me to go out to lunch. I
Stupidly like I just go to his like apartment and like didn't and he was like okay
I've got the perfect spot for us. We go where does he take me but he takes me to subway
hmm
Now there's some an edible bread sandwich. Yeah, and so please feel free to sponsor. I couldn't get any worse
Yeah, you know, and I was like you knew I was in a rotten mood and you take me to subway
These are the days of the $5 foot long at least. Yeah, and I will say at the very least
I was like okay. Well, he doesn't owe me somewhat because unfortunately I do love the tuna
I don't want to talk about it, but I do love the tuna
It is a shameful thing to admit, but it's the only thing I will order and so I was like okay
Well like this is actually like making the day worse, but at the same time. It's like
Because of the food boys
So then we sit down and he's like okay
You want to like tell me about the day like why are you having such a bad day? I tell him what I just told you
Look and I'm just like looking at him like dead eyed and then I was like
Do you have anything to say to that? Like you're gonna respond. He just looks at me directly in the eye
So without saying anything and he lets out an explosion
So loud
So loud that all of the employees because there was no one else in the establishment
That uh just long
Directly staring at me the longest part you've ever heard in your entire life broke sound barriers
The time I think it was one of those things it was longer than Titanic
The water supply
Immediately like rotten exactly it was an explosion that changed the course of history. Oh no
And so then he I don't do anything. I don't break eye contact eye because it's like how dare you do this to me right now
On the worst day of my life and to make that that anyone could think that could possibly be me
Or that I'd be associated with someone who would do something very straight or even the way he was like doing it
He was like what kind of like everyone knew he didn't I've been there honestly for a laugh once or twice. I've been there
I'm sorry. Well, we ate the tuna subway occasionally. I left my life for a part
He was one bite into so it was like this was like this was had been in there. Well, yeah, yeah
But that's like how fucking dare you. Yeah, that is
Day of all days in a subway in a subway. Yeah
And then he said he looked at me and he had the gall to say to that make you feel better
And then I said oh this is now my life flow
Hearing that fart watching those employees at subway look at me like I was filth and quite frankly
We're both covered in filth now
I will admit I didn't think that he was at the explosion. He vomited
No, which would have been me. Yeah, that's a play. No, but without the other end
And it was one of those stink. Oh
I'm gonna get into it. It is one of those things where it's like there are certain memories that as as hard as you try
You remember the smell you remember and you and you're sort of like I will do anything to get rid of that memory
Yeah, but it's a core memory. It's locked in there the body keeps the score and this body has been keeping that score for so long
You are you are tensing up in different areas and it's one of those things where
Similar to Chernobyl. It has it is one of those things where you can not for the rest of your life look at anything the same
You feel tainted you sort of feel like it has changed the DNA within me and it's only a matter of time
Before that day comes back to homie. Yeah, this is a rise like everything comes to the surface
The boils I got out of that subway called my family. Yeah, I said I love you. Yeah, no matter what happens
And I want to say to close out the story and I don't think it was a coincidence two months later that subway closed down. Oh
Wow, sorry. We need to we need to go to subway
Yeah

Welcome back and it's time for diva down
Diva down of course is our final segment where we take a person place or thing that could use
Our unsolicited advice and boy do we have some advice for this diva down? It is a synergy
episode. Yeah, because our diva down is
the bride
Jesse Buckley give it. Yeah, Jesse Buckley take a listen. They don't always hit they don't
I will say I feel vindicated because Greg has been wanting to see this movie for a while and I said I'm got no interest
Yeah, I love Jesse
Genuinely you guys all know this at this point. I love her. Well, the reason we're doing diva down
The bride is that it was an expensive movie a huge swing
Yeah, and it opened two three million dollars this weekend and didn't get good reviews like at the very least
I think people were maybe anticipating that it wouldn't do well in the box office
But it would do well because it does have a stacked cast of stone skull
So no, who's our husband Peter Karzgard and Christian Bale and Jake Gyllenhaal in and then and newly minted best actress winner Jesse Buckley
If that doesn't not happen, we are eating. Yeah, and my advice is
I don't want to see any gangster movies for the rest of time. Yeah, listen. I love Maggie Gyllenhaal
I'm not saying she can make whatever movie she wants and I fully support that. Yeah
But let it not be a gangster movie. I am so bored by them. I don't think there's anything new to do
Martin Scorsese has already cornered the market cornered the market and I don't even want to see those movies right
And this is our straight episode by the way, that's what I'm saying
Everything about this episode is so straight because I was like
Maybe Maggie if the whole cast was female I would be more inclined to pretend that I was going to see the movie
But from the minute I saw that trailer I said I don't want to see I do no one to see gangster movies in my face ever again
Yeah, I completely agree with the the gangster movie of it all and I will agree when I saw the trailer
I was a little like wait a second. What is this like it maybe will not be good like at least there was some cool
Visual style to it. I will get them that which you know I sometimes think mood and tone can overtake if it's done right
Yeah, but the main main issue with the bride that I can identify having not seen it but from the trailer alone
It's missing the iconic hair
You can read a imagine a character and a character story all you want
But if you're doing brighter Frankenstein you need that March Simpson hair with the stripe the hung smile can only do so much
That hung smile
Yeah, I mean listen she can probably out and she's acting with Christian bail. Yeah, she can do that
She has that capability, but we need the hair the March Simpson hair if we're doing the bride
I can't just get this random nothing bouffant. Yeah, like it's not it's not giving bride a Frankenstein
Unfortunately, you have this iconic hairstyle. That's the one thing you can not redo
Wow, that is actually one of the smartest observations. I've ever heard she make
Thank you. I don't make a mouth out of it and I was like maybe that's why I was so like get this off the screen
Maggie I love you and I want another like I don't want another the lost daughter
But I want I want to see your next one. I know it because it won't hopefully be in this gangster genre sure
Yeah, and I mean I would love to see the bride see the bride to me as your long black beautiful journey
Yeah
Well, big bold beautiful journey the bride to me is your big bold beautiful journey
So I am very you like to tell me if it's good
But you're gonna see on a plane on in a what's that airline that you just took?
Jet sweet x not a single yeah, not that not a single a screen inside
Of course, but yeah, no, I I plan to see it. I mean if I have the time
I but I'm being told I need to see Nirvana the movie the musical
The band show the Liza then the extra one ounce of one I only and yeah
If you're going and everyone should see that because if it's that good go see that but also support female creators and support
