Speaker 1:Okay, well, you do you.

Speaker 1:We have it's. I wanted to feel like it's been a busy time, but I feel like it's been a busy time for not entertaining reasons.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, it's been a busy time because life is absurd and the it just trudges onwards.

Speaker 1:It's still happening. And then there's Palestine and Israel, like that is very much happening.
Speaker 2:Yeah, again, yeah, continuously.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:So I just feel like let's talk about like Not everything. Yeah, stupid shit that we saw.
Speaker 1:Yeah, before we, before we get into that. It was just very funny because when I was out last night I decided because life has been life-ing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and my tummy's been tummying.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I decided to take myself on a date, because if, if you can't love yourself, how the hell are you going to love?
Speaker 2:anyone else. Thank you RuPaul. Thank you Rappel.
Speaker 1:And I decided to take myself on a date to go see the stage production of Jagged Little Pill. Jesus, it was fine.
Speaker 2:It was fine.
Speaker 1:I mean, it wasn't. We like Alanis, but like yeah, it wasn't like great Diablo Cody wrote the stage play. You know it was intense, the story was intense.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you were telling me, like the Cole's notes and I'm like Jesus.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there was a lot happening.
Speaker 2:That was like three hours of just trauma.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there was a lot happening in that three hours, so it was like it was fine. I'm happy that I paid rush seats.
Speaker 2:Yeah, 60 bucks right 60 bucks Like in, like almost front row.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I was in like row M, let's go. Mervish, hell, yeah. But where I was going with this is there was three women sitting in front of me and they basically were like yeah, the world's going to like. You know, I just don't think that we're going to meet our climate crisis numbers by XYZ dates, which I'm pretty sure I read an article about that the other day, so they're not wrong. However, they're like whatever, it doesn't matter, we're all going to be dead by then.
Speaker 2:Well, I mean that scene in was it the newsroom where Toby's character from the office? Is just the climate scientists being like we're fucked. That was like over a decade ago, right. Yeah, like we're super fucked.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we're super fucked. Sorry kids. Yeah, sorry kids. No wonder they're all angry.
Speaker 2:Yeah, dude.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So much Riz for their gats.
Speaker 1:The Rizzler.
Speaker 2:The Rizzler Phantom tax.
Speaker 1:Phantom tax. And so, yes, where were we starting?
Speaker 2:Talk about stuff we've seen.
Speaker 1:Yes, we are going to talk. We have seen some things. Yeah, we've all seen some things. We've all seen some things.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we. We noticed that showgirls was on to be for free and almost like I've never seen showgirls, I'm like I've also never seen showgirls, so we were like bad gays.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we, we need to. We need to watch this. Also, the other reason why I was like, oh my God, we need to watch this is because it was leaving showgirls.
Speaker 2:Yes, that's it so leaving to be.
Speaker 1:Yeah, leaving to be Leaving showgirls.
Speaker 2:Yeah, showgirls is leaving, showgirls yeah.
Speaker 1:So we were like we need to watch this so can we just take a moment to be like to be is incredible, oh my.
Speaker 2:God, like it's free. It's like fewer ads than YouTube. Yes, like, if you watch like a folding ideas for our NFT, like essay, it has fewer ads or more ads than to be does. So like, just yeah, it's free.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's free, go download it. It's got some shit.
Speaker 2:Like it's got good horror on there.
Speaker 1:It's got great horror films. It also has some like weird B movies has great B movies. Yeah, but also I remember last year. Now we're venturing on showgirls, welcome to the podcast. Yes, welcome to the podcast. We watched some weird or random holiday film with Ashanti. Do you remember this?
Speaker 2:Oh, holy shit, where she was, the she was on the board of directors for a family owned business.
Speaker 1:And I was like wait what? Yeah? In like New York yeah.
Speaker 2:And it was yeah, that was real bad.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was so good.
Speaker 2:We'll have to find out what that's called. Yes, we will. It's worth a watch.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it might be gone, it's probably gone. But what I'm saying is that if you're looking like, if you have time and you want to watch it, that's just like weird and random and bad the world's ending.
Speaker 2:We don't have time to waste it on high arc, let's just it's high, low brow. This is what we're here, for this is what we're going into.
Speaker 1:Anyway, showgirls yeah.
Speaker 2:So you were going into showgirls knowing what it's about. I was going into showgirls thinking that this was like high gay art.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and I knew that it was bad.
Speaker 2:But like on, like the second commercial break. I just sat there and was like what the fuck is this movie?
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh, this is genuinely bad. So there were a few things that happened during this, like the script was like very all over the place.
Speaker 2:Well, it felt like it wanted to be like like an 80 or like a 70 to 80 minute movie, but they needed to like pat it out for some reason. Yeah, and like the entire subplot with the guy who was like I can teach you how to dance did not need to be in there.
Speaker 1:No, remember when he made that AIDS HIV joke.
Speaker 2:No, I don't, but that sounds like it was in there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like he said that people who were dancers all had AIDS.
Speaker 2:Jesus.
Speaker 1:Christ or something like that, and we both of us were like what was that?
Speaker 2:Also, I thought that this was like a mid to late 80s movie, so that when I when I heard that line, I was like that's like joking about 9, 11 on, like September 12, 2001. Like girl, what? Yeah, no, it was 92, 93.
Speaker 1:I thought it was 2003. Shut the fuck up.
Speaker 2:Yeah, okay, we're fact checking. Yeah, we're fact checking.
Speaker 1:So the other thing to that I thought was really funny is anytime that she danced or anytime there were like sex scenes, she looked like a floppy fish.
Speaker 2:Well, I think okay. So two things one, 95. Okay, 95.
Speaker 1:So we're halfway between yeah.
Speaker 2:But like two, I think midway through I was like she doesn't know how to dance. She doesn't know how to do. This is like the definition of Watching a mediocre white person fail upwards. Yes like I think we said that and I was like she totally votes Republican.
Speaker 1:I can see it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, how did that end? How did the movie end? I remember like this, like, oh right, she left, she left.
Speaker 1:And after she saw the guy again.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that the movie started.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and I loved the gay overtones of it, where it's like this weird, like two, two doms in a relationship trying to dom each other. Yeah, it's, it's like blue lock, but like before blue lock, but like that never really played out no In a satisfying or like that's too gay. She has to be with a man.
Speaker 1:And like the most mid of men.
Speaker 2:They were all mid.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they were all mid anyways, anyways, showgirls. Showgirls. I can understand why it's because it's so bad that it's good. So I understand why it's like earned a spot as like.
Speaker 2:When it came out, like because that was around the same time as like to Wong Fu and like, so that that would have been like peak gay cinema, like I don't want to be like bottom of the barrel, but like it was. You got John Waters, yes, and you got showgirls, yeah, and like that's what? Yeah, it was camp.
Speaker 1:It was camp, but it was too long. Oh my God, it was so long I was like the commercial break did not help. No, the commercial breaks did not help. But I was like is this still going? Like? What more needs to be said?
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was a two hours and eight minutes and yeah, it was definitely could have been like an 80 minute film rather than 128 minutes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, maybe 90.
Speaker 2:Maybe, maybe.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, 75.
Speaker 2:Remember on the dance. I'm so hung up on the dancer subplot where he was like I can teach you how to dance. You're special, no.
Speaker 1:And that was his pickup line. No, okay, remember when he did it, like she showed up at his dance and the thing that she was like.
Speaker 2:he was like I wrote this for you.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but then he just like gave it to one of the people that she danced with at the club the cheetah, and everyone was booing yeah. And then I was like what?
Speaker 2:what does this have to do with?
Speaker 1:it. What was the point? Yeah, it was no payoff. This scene does not need to be in here.
Speaker 2:And then she was pregnant and he was like getting married to her. Yeah, yeah, oh, my God.
Speaker 1:Anyways, you should go watch it.
Speaker 2:Go watch it. It's great, it's terrible. Go watch it.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Speaking of terrible and things that people probably should not go watch.
Speaker 1:But are going to watch because it's broken box office records. Yeah, and there was a Tik Tok trend about it.
Speaker 2:Are we talking about? Five night, I wasn't sure if there was a TikTok trend about it, so much as I Apparently landed myself firmly on FNAF talk. Well, it's probably both. It's probably both.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so we ended up watching five nights at Freddy's the film we.
Speaker 2:The movie, the most, not all, of the film.
Speaker 1:Film makes it sound like yeah, yeah. I seem to remember and maybe I'm making this up, but I thought you told me that the film the movie, sorry was horror.
Speaker 2:It was supposed to be, so you. You went into it as somebody who's never played the games did not Watch all the YouTube videos.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you showed me some of my players.
Speaker 2:Let's watch like the first two nights or the first five nights that mark player plays and like you'll get the gist. Yeah it's security cam. Yeah, it's very spooky, I got it. And then so we go into it and like the first scene with like the security guard trying to like get out of the Mask that was that was spooky, yeah, and then nothing for about 20 to 30 minutes. Then Spoilers a bitch, gets chill like eating in half.
Speaker 2:Yeah, just chomps, yeah, like which was wonderful, because I I just leaned over to Am and was like, is this the bite of 87? And then she's got bitten half and then I was like Apparently, that is the standard reaction. Everybody, everyone said that well, I mean. But yeah, no, I don't know who the movie was for it was for Kids on tiktok, like I guess.
Speaker 1:I don't even know if it's Gen Z, but Gen Alpha, maybe, maybe so.
Speaker 2:Here's the thing they spent like 45 to like 50 minutes trying to like make you care about what was going on, and like these animatronics, which were fantastic.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and like as a person who knows nothing about the Five Nights of Freddy's lore, yeah, never played the game. Nothing. I walked out of that being like well, like I don't give a shit.
Speaker 2:That was a movie that happened.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that was a movie that happened and it was way too long and they spent so much time trying to build up this thing and that didn't need no, payoffs no payoffs, whereas we have watched films based on Video games, cartoons where I've had no contacts and I've been like shit. Yeah, that's good Well.
Speaker 2:I mean I Feel so I was talking to this, talking about this with the front of mine, and I was like we were talking about Five Nights Freddy's, and he was like, well, what did you expect? I was like I expected at least the Mario movie. I wanted the Sonic movie because in terms of like tier list, I go like Sonic is my gold standard, where I'm like this is for everyone. Yep, this is for people who don't know Sonic, this is for people who know Sonic. It's just a fun movie.
Speaker 2:It's just a fun movie and Mario is kind of mid tier for me Okay, I'm like okay, this had moments, but this is firmly a children's movie, yep, and it has some nods and I had fun with it. Yeah, and this is like it wasn't lore heavy enough for the people who are obsessed with Five Nights of Freddy's, yeah, to care about it. And it wasn't Entry friendly enough for people who don't care about it to get into it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, is it. Is it weird that I prefer all of the tick talks about Five Nights of Freddy's, that I enjoyed the?
Speaker 2:no, that's always been the case, like because the game lore is incoherent and stupid.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like all the tick talks about Five Nights of Freddy's, a plus 10 of 10. Yeah, would would like and follow, sure, but like the movie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm Matthew Lillard in it.
Speaker 1:That I was like oh my god, it's yeah, shrinking but like otherwise whatever yeah, yeah no that's the second time we've seen Matthew Lillard in a film in like a Short period of time, wasn't he in one of the films we saw at Try not to dark, or am I just? I think you might be making that up, oh, okay.
Speaker 2:I think that seems like a thing I would do. Yeah, cuz it's a wonderful knife. Had Joe McHale.
Speaker 1:Ah, yes, yes, yes I also a white man, yeah. Yeah, with a laundry kind of mm-hmm.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah that's fair. Yeah. No, I'm afraid of stuff. Right is miss yeah.
Speaker 1:I mean, once it comes on to streaming, you should totally watch it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, do not go to theaters.
Speaker 1:Do not go. Oh my god to be that we're gonna say something controversial, yet brave.
Speaker 2:Are you gonna out us for illegally streaming it? I? Mean you just yeah, I mean, if. I mean I don't know if it was legal. Ah, we streamed it somewhere.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and I'm glad we didn't pay for it.
Speaker 2:Oh my god, I I could not have dealt with like 90 plus minutes of just teenagers and children, or are, are, are well, and so when I was talking about the tick-tock trend, mm-hmm.
Speaker 1:The tick-tock trend is that there was a bunch of children going around to movie theaters on the ceiling. The cutouts, the cutouts, yeah. Opening week, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:I I never saw that. What I did see was Teenagers stealing the Paw Patrol ones and tagging it five nights at Freddy's and I was like I don't fucking know what this is about. And now it makes a lot of sense.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean, teenagers are gonna do what they do. Teens go teen, teens kind of team. We were all there. We were, I mean, just like when we were teens we used to do shit like that. I, you're like, I didn't know.
Speaker 2:I'm like I was a.
Speaker 1:I was a good Baptist.
Speaker 2:I was a Baptist child trying to, you know, repress their transness. Sure, I did shit. You stole Five Nights at Freddy's cutouts. I mean they didn't exist.
Speaker 1:But if they did, I probably would have.
Speaker 2:You probably would have. Yeah, let's be real.
Speaker 1:Oh anyways, five Nights at Freddy's probably not the vibe Three out of ten. Yeah, it's a three out of ten.
Speaker 2:You had one good scene and the animatronics were neat.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the animatronics, but they were done by the Jim Henson yeah.
Speaker 2:Well, yeah, that was. The joke is, I guess Freddy Fazbear is a Disney princess Because Disney owns them puppets.
Speaker 1:True, yeah, didn't you also say the writer of the movie is like a religious person.
Speaker 2:Well, scott Cawthon was the creator of the game and he, I believe, had writing credits on this and probably production credits. But he got his start making Christian point and click adventure games or computer games of some kind and people saw the animatronics and were like this is nightmare fuel. And he was like bitch, I could make a scary game out of this. And the rest is history.
Speaker 1:There you are, yeah.
Speaker 2:Also, the fact that Markiplier wasn't in, didn't have a cameo and everyone else had a cameo was so mad.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we watched like literally until the end. Yeah, right up until the end.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was like oh cool. We heard like speech to text saying come find me Awesome. I love that.
Speaker 1:I don't love that All because we thought he would have a cameo. He'd be like hello. My name is Markiplier.
Speaker 2:Markiplier. Actually, you know what, if you do stream it and you cut out a little picture of Markiplier and stick it in the top left hand corner of your monitor or TV, that could be a fun way to watch it. Yeah, because it's like a Markiplier.
Speaker 1:Markiplier is kind of there just watching with you.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he's playing it.
Speaker 1:That's nice. Don't watch it, it's really bad. It is very bad. I mean it's funny because the strike is now over. They finally come to an agreement.
Speaker 2:Well, the writer strike.
Speaker 1:No, no, no. The actors.
Speaker 2:The actors as well.
Speaker 1:Yeah, oh.
Speaker 2:I missed this. Yeah, Listen, it's been heard. Might tell me?
Speaker 1:Yeah, I know, I know, but it's so funny because Hollywood wants us to go out, they want us to watch movies, they want us to watch TV, they want us to do all these things, and yet some of it is genuinely terrible and not worth watching.
Speaker 2:Well, I mean, I think we're going to have to go through that same dip that happened the last writer strike, where it's like, okay, well, you know, things will start getting good again in the next eight months maybe.
Speaker 1:Yeah Well, I mean, one of the things that happened during this strike is there's been a lot of reality television that's been produced because to reality television wasn't Well, they're not union, are they? No, they're not part of the union. I mean, like some of them are, because they are also actors, but they're not part of the union. So we'll probably see a lot of reality television come out during this time, while there's, you know, like there's some kind of like what am I trying to say? Gaps, yeah.
Speaker 1:I mean, I think that when the scabs work is scrapped and when yeah, but that actually like before we get into what we're going to talk about next. I remember a few episodes ago I was talking about how excited I was about all the upcoming seasons of reality television and Bravo and Housewives, and we're just entering all of those seasons right now. We've got Beverly Hills, salt Lake City, miami. I'm sure I'm missing some, but let me just tell you like we're entering quite a good era of reality television right now. We're like all of them. They got the assignment, they saw what happened on Vanderpump rules. They were like oh okay, I have to step my pussy up, Got it?
Speaker 2:Let's manufacture not just drama, but like life-ruiting drama. Yeah, like I'm so here for it, yeah season 14 of Beverly Hills, they're going to strap somebody to an electric chair. It's going to be great.
Speaker 1:But I mean, I don't know if you heard of this, just because I keep track of all of this but, like Duree and her husband PK are having marriage issues, and then Kyle and her husband Mauricio, they have announced that they're separated.
Speaker 2:Goodbye Kyle.
Speaker 1:Goodbye Kyle, and Kyle is apparently having allegedly a relationship with a lesbian country singer.
Speaker 2:Love it. We love seeing Halloween star Kyle, which I lost my shit when I realized that.
Speaker 1:Yes, so this like we're going to see that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1:There's so many, so many things unfolding, like even on Salt Lake City. I didn't realize, but like Monica, who is the new castmate for this year, she used to be really good friends with Jen Shaw, who is the castmate who went to jail for frotting all of these people, and not just frotting all of these people, but like she had a telemarketing scam that took millions and thousands of dollars away from old people.
Speaker 2:And shit, so like evil shit.
Speaker 1:Like evil, actual, yeah, like actual scam, scamming shit. So Monica, who is the new person on Salt Lake City, apparently like she's been making for good television. I have been enjoying her. However, apparently she has been using various fake names no one on the cast likes her and she sued Heather Gay and her business for botched lip services. But Heather Gay has countersued her for not paying for the services which you're supposed to pay for up front. And then and then there was this. I think I told you about this. There was an episode where they all went to Palm Springs and they went to the Trixie Motel.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:One of the castmates, lisa Barlow. She was like I lost my $60,000 ring. There are now rumors that they've been talked about on Dumois that Monica allegedly may have stolen Lisa's $60,000 ring.
Speaker 2:I thought you were going to say Trixie.
Speaker 1:No, of course not.
Speaker 2:Caught you just. No, no, no no, wiggled her way in.
Speaker 1:Because Monica was helping her try to find it in the bathroom. So now it's like oh, apparently, Anyways, how do you fence a $60,000 ring. I don't know, but all I'm saying is like these up cut, like all of these seasons that are currently airing are just like I am living.
Speaker 2:So they're just like production isn't really producing anymore. They're like not forcing things. They're just like hey, did you hear about this? Yes, I love that. So, it's becoming more reality.
Speaker 1:Yes, I love it yes.
Speaker 2:Hey, maybe don't talk about your husband's affair versus hey, do you know where he was last night? Because we do, Because he was mic'd up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, reality is becoming. It's real. It's real. It's a real life, it's a real man. It's a real. We already spoke about Joel McHale, but yeah, house of Villains.
Speaker 2:House of Villains. What?
Speaker 1:episode are we on? Is it five? I think it's four or five.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And I know that we talked about it before, but do you want to give an update?
Speaker 2:Okay, so as of the last episode, new York was ejected. With the best exit line Calling Omarosa a cock-sucking, cum-guzzling Republican cunt.
Speaker 1:Yes, no-transcript. Honestly, how is anybody going to top that?
Speaker 2:Yeah, you can't.
Speaker 1:Like you cannot and seriously like how could you get rid of New York?
Speaker 2:I think that they are deliberately targeting stronger competitors. Yes, so like that's how Shake has made it this far.
Speaker 1:The middest, the middest of villains.
Speaker 2:Like every episode, we see him and whenever he opens my mouth, his mouth it's like he opens my mouth because I always say oh my god, shake is such a detier villain.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Shake, I don't know how he got cast for this. Well, no, I know how he got cast because he's a fucking misogynist.
Speaker 2:Well, it was so funny. He was like I wanted to have this redemption arc. But then I like something happened and like the real Shake came out and was like yeah, because when you're under pressure like the real, you comes out, and every time he does. It's just misogynistic.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and I think in this current episode everybody finally was just like fuck this man.
Speaker 2:So yes, this may be the first time that we see a weak competitor get eliminated.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:And the fact that he had won the supervillain challenge. He got all of his locks off the box and then started telling people who were on the chop like you're fucked, you're fucked. And then Omarosa gets her lock off and opens the box.
Speaker 1:Because he didn't actually open the box.
Speaker 2:Because and Joel McHale the entire time was like did you open the box? Did you open the box? You got to open the box and then they cut and he's like, well, you said just locks off. He's like, no, I said locks off and open the box. They cut back to him saying exactly that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so you know what I shake. You're not cut out for this shit.
Speaker 2:Girl, go be a vet.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like you know what, he doesn't even deserve to be a vet.
Speaker 2:Well, the fact that I keep forgetting he's a vet, I keep thinking he's like a crypto bro or like a finance bro, because he's like that kind of energy, yeah. It's like oh, I hate that about you.
Speaker 1:He feels like he should be an NFTs yeah.
Speaker 2:He, he strikes me as the type of person who got into veterinary science because he's like I bet you there's mad chicks there. Oh yeah, I know right.
Speaker 1:It. Yeah, that energy is like. Yeah, I see it. But right now I think we're seeing because Omarosa won this week's villains challenge Again. Second time. Second time, not surprised, and I think she's trying to. I loved this week when she was explaining to the other women with the oranges. She's like if we do this but that, and none of them understood what she was talking about.
Speaker 2:And also I love that she was like all of you are safe in this room, and then immediately puts up Corinne and Tanisha. Yeah, and I'm like oh no yeah. And I am here for what? Because Tanisha was mad.
Speaker 1:Tanisha was mad.
Speaker 2:I am very excited to see how this goes.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I do think at first I was like okay, like top three is like final three, so obvious it's going to be the Johnny's and Omarosa. I think Omarosa has painted two big a target on her back, so I'm wondering if it's going to be Bobbie and the Johnny's.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, johnny Fairplay has played a very good game, very good game, completely quiet about what he's doing. Yeah, he's so under the radar, whereas everyone else who feels like they're playing under the radar is not at all playing.
Speaker 2:They're pulling a shake.
Speaker 1:Yeah, or a Bobbie. Yeah, bobbie is so unhinged.
Speaker 2:I love Bobbie yeah.
Speaker 1:If you have not watched Love and Hip Hop the season, love and Hip Hop Miami the seasons with Bobbie Lights, please do, because if you think this is like Bobby Light's unhinged, it is not.
Speaker 2:Well, and we saw in the next episode Spencer Pratt is coming into the house.
Speaker 1:And did you notice the large crystal that he was wearing?
Speaker 2:I did not notice the large crystal he was wearing.
Speaker 1:It made me so happy.
Speaker 2:Do we know what kind of crystal this was?
Speaker 1:I didn't clock it immediately.
Speaker 2:I think it might have been an amethyst, but like I love that you were about to say amethyst, like people say your name Alma.
Speaker 1:Alma-thist yes, true, I'm almost positive that's what it was, but I could be wrong.
Speaker 2:We'll look. We'll consult the tomes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, all I know is that that's Spencer's whole brand Crystal's.
Speaker 2:Is he a crystal girlie? Yes, I told you that. Oh my God.
Speaker 1:His whole brand is crystal.
Speaker 2:I love it.
Speaker 1:He went on some crystal thing, not like crystal the drug, but like he went on a crystal bender. So and then everyone was like I remember I would see it all on Twitter. I was like is this for real, like what is happening right now? Yes, it's real. Oh my God. That's just his thing.
Speaker 2:Okay, real quick. I know we've talked a lot about shake, but remember shake's apology tour when he just went in and called the house meeting and tried to like apologize to people and then came out as more of an asshole.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:I'm just like girl. And then like goes out and like Corina's, like rubbing Johnny Fairplay's feet, and he's like you're so thirsty, it's like girl, what are you doing?
Speaker 1:And like, let's be honest, even if you think that you don't say like, maybe he thinks that by saying it to her, he's, you know, being honest and I'm like I think he's trying to ham up his villainousness. Yeah.
Speaker 2:And he's like they'll keep me because I'm good TV and it's like they're going to get rid of you because you're toxic.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Like though I wouldn't be surprised to see Tanisha go. No, don't speak, that I know I don't want her to, but I think that the tension between Amorosa and her would be too much to continue. So I think Amorosa is going to campaign against her.
Speaker 1:No, we're going to say that shake is going.
Speaker 2:I hope so yeah.
Speaker 1:That's. That's all Shake's going Before we wrap up this week's episode. We are, we're big like bad holiday film people yeah, we are. And also we have one more episode left for this. Holy shit, what yeah we do.
Speaker 2:Oh my God, we got to start talking about that like project that I want to do in the off time.
Speaker 1:I know so, or I think it's at least one more episode. If it's not one, it's two. We'll have to double check.
Speaker 2:Yeah, One, two, two between a non-zero number less than or equal to two episodes.
Speaker 1:So either way, but yeah, those were two different thoughts. That's the ADHD topic.
Speaker 2:Yeah, welcome to the show.
Speaker 1:But why I brought up the holiday films is because if you have any holiday films that are bad, good, whatever, you should recommend them to us, you should drop a comment, leave us a voicemail, do anything like that, and we can talk about them on the podcast.
Speaker 2:Yeah, maybe we'll do like a do a Christmas special episode with my mom.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:These are the terrible movies we've seen, and she'll be like I watched Elf in Christmas story.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean, your mom is too wholesome, and I don't know if we could get. We tried to make her watch, Nailed it one year and she got so anxious I mean like she just had secondhand embarrassments. Yeah, but like we couldn't even get five minutes in, I know, and she was just like no, no, no, I can't, I can't, I can't.
Speaker 2:So it's the undiagnosed ADHD for me.
Speaker 1:I think that's the episode. I think that's the episode. Where can the people find us?
Speaker 2:Everywhere in your, in your closets, under your beds. Oh, scary On social at high lowbrow pod. That's H-I-G-H lowbrow pod. We're everywhere, but mainly Instagram and TikTok and threads.
Speaker 1:Are we on threads? Yeah, cool, nice, and then, yeah, we're going to be back in two weeks, maybe you guess.
Speaker 2:Maybe, I guess, maybe not.
Speaker 1:We're just, we're just flying by the seat of her pants here.
Speaker 2:Life, man who cares.
Speaker 1:Life Be like that sometimes Be like that. All right, all right, see you in two weeks. Goodbye, bye.
