Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Is that a bird?
Speaker 1Wait.
Speaker 2What is that? I don't know, I wonder if everyone hears it. Oh, definitely.
Speaker 3Is it a bird? I don't know. I wonder if everyone hears it.
Speaker 2Oh, definitely, is it a bird.
Speaker 3I don't know, is it an owl, maybe a bird? Very, strange. You know who I don't hear today.
Speaker 2Chef de la, don't bring him up. The intruder Anyway. So yesterday we had our big day, so the Empire.
Speaker 1State.
Speaker 2Building throws this huge party that you can attend and pay lots of money to attend, and because we're the official pups of the building, we get to go for free. For free and for appearance purposes and to make everyone happy Before the fireworks. So it's really nice. There's um, they take over. Well, first, they put everyone on the one floor and they have like a party Yesterday.
Speaker 3Belle, you just inhaled it's from the partying. Oh, the partying, it's just getting to you.
Speaker 2Yeah, so they put all of the guests on this one floor that is just for these guests and they have a party and they had snow cones, they had cotton candy, they had mini sliders, they had mini hot dogs, they had a DJ. They had a great DJ. He was fabulous. We danced with him. They had well. If people drink alcohol, they can have unlimited alcohol.
Speaker 3Yeah, wine, beer, champagne. Water and juice which.
Speaker 2I found very strange.
Speaker 3How did juice get in the mix there?
Speaker 2Yeah, I didn't understand that there's no soda.
Speaker 3No soda, but you can have juice.
Speaker 2I'm like I don't want a juice, thanks. So what else? Did I miss anything on the floor besides the party and the DJ and the snow cones and the cotton candy sliders? Hot dogs, cupcakes, hot dogs, cupcakes. Oh yes, the cupcakes, the cupcakes. Can I say something about them?
Speaker 3yeah, we can talk about the cupcakes, because I have a comment about the cupcake okay, these cupcakes look like they went to the local stop and shop that's a hundred percent true. They actually look very similar to the cupcakes from yeah, like your neighborhood grocery store and they're mini.
Speaker 2They're not big, they're mini like those bite-sized guys. I'm sorry those look like those um maybe even like a costco or something yeah, they're definitely.
Speaker 3They looked like Costco cupcakes.
Speaker 2Not that that's bad, I mean Not bad. Don't know what they taste like, but I couldn't have any either. They look a little. I'm a mere pup. Yeah, we didn't eat them.
Speaker 3But they looked a little, but they definitely looked like not, not like bakery, yeah, like not.
Speaker 2Not a real bakery. Yeah, like not the top of the Empire State Building level.
Speaker 3cupcakes yeah.
Speaker 2I mean, the sliders looked very nice on these little squishy buns, the burgers and the hot dogs and everything looked and they were mini. Everything was like mini.
Speaker 3But they did also have a hot dog cart.
Speaker 2Yeah, that was nice, Like a legit huge hot dog cart A real hot dog cart, like when we were at Donald Duck, like when that hot dog cart was there. It was a real and I don't know how they. I guess it goes in the elevator. I don't know how they got it up there.
Speaker 3Yeah, I don't know how did they get anything up there in that floor? I?
Speaker 2don't know, is it a different elevator than we ever go in?
Speaker 3Probably. But we have to tell you what happened before that. So it was really funny.
Speaker 2So we go in a secret entrance at the entire state building oh my goodness. And no one knows we're there because we don't go in the main entrance, we go in a secret entrance. But everybody who works in the building knows us. They're like hi, hi, hi. So this gentleman comes and he's like you're going to lose the sun, let's go. And he goes to take us up.
Speaker 3He was very nice, he was like the manager of the building or something oh, because we were waiting for our main liaison escort to come down, but she was, there was yeah, there was no, we just were confused because it was time had passed yeah, the time had passed right and he was worried.
Speaker 2We were anxious because we wanted to get our content and he was worried, so and we were anxious because we wanted to get our content and he was worried, so he's like let's go. I'll take you upstairs, so he takes us to another door and I was like this isn't the door we usually go through. Well, what happened? We got locked in.
Speaker 3We got locked in with this gentleman in a hallway in the Empire State Building and we couldn't get out.
Speaker 2And he has a pass to go anywhere but the door wouldn't open.
Speaker 3Even the pass kept going green and saying the door is open, but the door was locked.
Speaker 2Yeah, and we couldn't get out. And then I was like, wait, this is the way that the guests who like the building come in. So he's like, well, and he kept trying to get the door to work. You know, when it works we were locked in, but then we were able to get out the door and we had to walk all the way around the block.
Speaker 3Yeah, so for context, because I don't know if that makes sense. Maybe it does, but OK. So there was one door that was locked and we couldn't get back right out into the back, into the building right so we're completely locked out, and then the only other door option was all the way at the other end, which led us to the street, not to fifth avenue to the side street to the side street where we would have to run around the entire building.
Speaker 2So he was like, let's keep trying the door, because he didn't want to run around the entire building. So he was like let's keep trying the door, because he didn't want to run around. He didn't want us running around in the heat.
Speaker 3So, needless to say, we ran around the building.
Speaker 2We had to go all the way around and everybody saw us Us and this gentleman running like wackos all the way around Fifth Avenue, back in the Fifth Avenue entrance, and it was just crazy.
Speaker 3It was wild. But for a moment there I thought we were completely locked in and I said, oh, we're going to miss the fireworks, we're going to be in here for a while.
Speaker 2We were quite a while.
Speaker 3Yeah, it actually was.
Speaker 2Because he was not giving up on that door. Yeah, so we were in there quite a while. Yeah, it actually was, because he was not giving up on that door yeah. So we were in there quite a while, so that was really funny.
Speaker 3But thank goodness we weren't really locked in there. No Like completely.
Speaker 2He thought so Well, he also didn't want us to go in the heat again. Oh well, yeah, so then. So that's what happened, we went all the way around back in our secret Fifth Avenue entrance, and then we wait a few minutes and finally our liaison shows up.
Speaker 3Our liaison.
Speaker 2And takes us upstairs and we're like, hey, you're really late.
Speaker 1Can we go?
Speaker 2outside first Because we're going to lose the light, like the gentleman told you. So she's like okay, so we go up, told you. So she's like okay, so we go up there and she's like you have 10 minutes. And we were like 10 minutes, what the heck?
Speaker 3because it was so timed and we were already so late for the party. Everything is kind of it's very intense there which makes sense because, it's the empire. State Building, the most famous building in the world.
Speaker 2Yes, it is, security is high. Number one tourist attraction in the whole world is the Empire State Building.
Speaker 3And we are the official pups? Yeah, and we got to go to the floor. Nobody was there we had 10 minutes, but there was no one else there, it was just us.
Speaker 2Just us Out there on an 86. Can you believe that we have the entire empire. We just go wherever we want.
Speaker 3I think it's so cool two pups just on top, like on top, taking photos. It's like your own, it was our own private photo shoot.
Speaker 2I know and you want to hear a secret. Shoot. The empire state building is not pet friendly.
Speaker 3Yeah, this is where it gets confusing everyone. Yes, because, and we're sorry to lead you astray.
Speaker 2Yes, we don't mean to, but we're not relinquishing our title.
Speaker 3No.
Speaker 2Right, so just FYI. I don't know who I and how we're the official pups, but we are. I don't know who I and how we're the official pups, but we are. Even the president comes and talks to us. He loves us, jean-yves.
Speaker 3Jean-Yves.
Speaker 2He loves us.
Speaker 1Yes.
Speaker 2So we're the official pups of a non-pet-friendly building, right.
Speaker 3Yeah, is that how you say?
Speaker 2it? I guess so, but I don't care, but we don't care, but it's us, because it's us, yeah and okay, so we went there. Then she's like okay, come on, we got to get you into the party because there's all people yes, then we go to the party and it was blasting wild boom, boom, boom with music music blasting food everywhere people people coming to talk to us people, taking pictures of us people taking pictures of us People, taking videos of us People talking to us People.
Speaker 2And I was like guys, I just want a snow cone. So finally I got a snow cone. Oh, it was so good, delicious. And then Tin gets hers and what does she do? Yawns and snubs it, yep.
New Year's Eve Fireworks Experience
Speaker 3Yeah, but then I'm the type of girly that you know. I like the idea of the snow cone and when it's being made, but then all of a sudden it just deflates and gets watery and it's not good anymore.
Speaker 2And they had these fancy star shots. No, it's true, I get it. And all the sauce is on the bottom.
Speaker 3It looks so good for about five seconds, and then it just goes downhill.
Speaker 2Yeah, it looked good for a quick video or photo.
Speaker 3Yeah, but you enjoyed it.
Speaker 2I did. I like everything. I even drank their water Delicious. And then wait, I was going to say something, oh yes, about the snow cone girl. Yeah, so she was hoarding these beautiful straws.
Speaker 3I don't know if it's hoarding, is it? Well, what was she doing with them? She?
Speaker 2was, so all the people were getting snow cones and she was just sticking a spoon in them and giving it to them. And then me, with my eyes, spots these beautiful straws that are shaped like stars on them. They're like red or they're white or they're blue. So she goes to give me my snow cone and puts a spoon in it. First of all, I can't eat with that spoon, lady.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2I think yeah. So I spotted it and I said I want one of those. So she goes oh, you want this in your snow cone. And I was like uh, don't you think I could have that better than a spoon?
Speaker 1Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2So and I said, and tink ones, one, two please. So I did, I got one.
Speaker 3I didn't know what she was doing with them though they were all just sitting there, those beautiful straws. Yeah, and no one knew to ask for one. No one knew to get one.
Speaker 2Maybe if there were children at the event, but nobody's paying. The lease price was $550. Nobody's paying $550, I think, for a kid to be there. There was one kid there One.
Speaker 3That was it. There was no other kids.
Speaker 2No kids, all adults.
Speaker 3This was a par-tay.
Speaker 2And they were par-taying. They were drinking up a storm, this crowd.
Speaker 3Oh yes.
Speaker 2So different than last year.
Speaker 3Yes.
Speaker 2Very different crowd.
Speaker 1They were all very nice and friendly.
Speaker 2When we were dancing down there with them Down there it was fine, yeah, but then as it progressed, they got a little woo.
Speaker 3Got a little, you know, intense yeah.
Speaker 2It's an interesting vibe. So anyway, we went up to then, back up to 86, because it was on fire x time and we like no, we don't like this, let's go all the way upstairs yeah, we tried to give 86 a little whirl and because we never did it we never did it, and it was not not for us. Nope, no, 102 is where it's at 102, is it so up, so up we go. And now all these people, they're all a little drunk now and it's hot up there.
Speaker 3So if y'all haven't been up there it's all glass. It's hot, but the only reason it's hot is because it's more amount of people than usual. But actually it wasn't crowded.
Speaker 2No, it really wasn't crowded up there, it's just because, everyone Because it was like a million dollars to be up there.
Speaker 1Really seriously.
Speaker 2Yeah, it wasn't, if you were going up there, you had to pay like $12,000 or something.
Speaker 3It wasn't crowded, it was just the matter of like everyone wanted to be on one side of it, yes, so it was just like compact, but then you could walk away and like, literally, you had space to you could have done like cartwheels.
Speaker 2It wasn't overcrowded or overpopulated or anything like that, but the people up there were not like last year's. People were all Tink and Bell followers, which I don't know how they got up there, but they were and we had like a party up there.
Speaker 3It was a party up there. It was really fun.
Speaker 2It was so much fun. They were dancing and singing. This crowd was just testy and drinking and staring out the window, so oddly.
Speaker 3It was so weird, it was a weird vibe.
Speaker 2Yeah, but it's okay, we're on the floor, we go on the floor to do our content, so, whatever we got it, it was great. Macy's, thank you for the beautiful fireworks. The new location was great.
Speaker 3I actually preferred it.
Speaker 2Yeah, the water's wider there.
Speaker 3Yeah, it's wider and also I don't know if it's a wind thing in July, but when we've watched it from the east side, the east river the east river every time about, maybe like halfway through the fireworks. Yes, there would be some the smoke. Smoke would build so much that it was hard to see the end of the the show yes but then on this side we saw the whole show, the whole show no smoke, no smoke, clearly. So I don't know if it's because the wind is going west. Maybe, so that's, why.
Speaker 2And you know what else we had?
Speaker 3the other view, so we got to see the whole thing, yeah.
Speaker 2But you know what else? I did not see this at the east side what? The barge had a countdown of a big number and it was like five, four, three, two, one the east side.
Speaker 3I don't remember that I don't think we could see it because we were so high up we didn't see the river. Really, where here we?
Speaker 2had a better, like a bird's eye view almost oh, so that's why we saw the countdown, yeah, oh well, I liked it was really cool and at first I was like oh gosh, it's gonna be so far away from us. But it really wasn't. I guess I kind of liked it better because I saw all the pretty city building lights yeah, underneath us exactly and it just looked like really really cool, like like you're in like star wars or something down there. It was really cool to see those lights.
Speaker 3What do you think of real fireworks compared to drone fireworks? The big fight now.
Speaker 2Yeah, everything is drones now. I don't know. I like the real ones.
Speaker 3Me too. I like, like the sound, I like to see them go up from down.
Speaker 2Yeah, they go like that. Mm-hmm, I like the see them go up from down. Yeah, they go like that. I like the real ones.
Speaker 3Something about like authenticity.
Speaker 2Yeah, stop this AI stuff.
Speaker 3AI drone fireworks Like, then you don't get the sound, you don't get.
Speaker 2Yeah, and then last night after the fireworks it was midnight and we saw giant fireworks out still.
Speaker 3It was really cool.
Speaker 2It was really, really cool that it continued with big. I mean Macy's didn't continue, but somehow some people were having big, beautiful fireworks shows at midnight. It was really cool.
Speaker 3How did it feel not going back to your suite or something this time bell?
Speaker 2I was not happy, you weren't, I mean okay. So this is the first year in my whole life that I actually am only three, but I've seen four fireworks there now because, I saw the first one when I wasn't even one zero when I was zero, and that was my favorite because not because it was the first one, but because Macy shot the fireworks off the Empire State Building yeah, that, that was the best that was pretty epic and we had the fireworks on us, like that was my favorite, but a lot of on but yeah on us, like right in front of us, like at our glass window.
Speaker 2I touched them, I mean not touched them but I could feel like I touched them. So the tradition has been that we have a hotel partner who gives us a giant sweep to celebrate the 4th of July, and then we go back to the suite and have our own little celebration sweep to celebrate the 4th of July, and then we go back to the suite and have our own little celebration. Well, we didn't do it this time.
Speaker 1We wanted to do something different and we came home.
Speaker 2I prefer the suite, just saying.
Speaker 3Me too, honestly.
Speaker 2We thought it was going to be great. Let's go there and that's it.
Speaker 3We kind of changed it Because also it wouldn't be as wild to get back to our place of home, because the side was different. Yeah, because everything was on the Jersey side, the west side, yeah, not the east side.
Speaker 2And it wasn't bad, but it was to get to. You know, there was no traffic, there were no people walking around the east side.
Speaker 3It was really cool it was actually cool to walk out of the Empire State Building after everything and it wasn't like people shoulder to shoulder, because that's what it usually is. It's so wild.
Speaker 2Yes, and it's like we're fighting to get to our suite.
Speaker 3Yeah, we're fighting just to go a couple blocks to our suite.
Speaker 2Yeah, but no fighting at all. Yeah, so I don't know.
Speaker 3I kind of like sleeping in my own bed.
Speaker 2Yeah, I do too, but I always prefer a suite, but then we could have done gossip. Wait, did we do gossip?
Speaker 3We could have done Wait, did we?
Speaker 2do gossip. We must have done it last year.
Speaker 3No, because 4th of July was on a different day.
Speaker 2Oh, it wasn't a Thursday. Yeah, I think it was like a.
Speaker 3Sunday or something.
Speaker 2So we were home to talk about it. But there's just something about being treated like a queen when you return from the fireworks July 4th.
Speaker 3Actually last year was on a Tuesday, so no, we did not do.
Speaker 2And they always have presents for us in these suites and like we come back from a day and there's always foods and snacks and presents and treats and drinks and toys, I don't know. I guess it's different. We changed it up, we did change it up. Maybe we'll do it again different another time. Maybe we won't go to the fireworks again, who knows, we'll see. Maybe We'll see how it goes. I know Things always change. Yeah, like the group was very different than last year. That was at the party Upstairs anyway.
Speaker 1The big spenders were different.
Speaker 2The big spenders were just a different vibe. Yeah, they weren't into the fun party, they were just staring out the window with their drink. Yeah, yeah, whatever, it's okay. We had fun and everybody loved that we were there, so that's all that counts.
Speaker 3Exactly Right.
Speaker 2Well, I think this was a long banter.
Speaker 3It really was.
Speaker 2You better get on to the poppin'. I think we should pop it over to pop culture.
Speaker 3Yeah, we're poppin' to think I have to tell you though Uh-oh, pop culture is not poppin' Because it's 4th of July.
Speaker 2Yeah, I know, celebrities have taken off they gave their publicists off, so they don't tell anything.
Speaker 3But we can recap everything that's happened with the queen, because that was a lot.
Speaker 2Can I just say, this coffee cup is strange.
Speaker 3Guys, we're using different coffee cups today Because ours are dirty.
Speaker 2You hear that that's how it has to open. It's like I have to fight with it to get a sip.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2Whatever, okay, this is from.
Speaker 3I'm almost on empty. I'd have to hit pause and go refill my coffee.
Speaker 2We don't do that. Okay, go ahead, rude.
Speaker 3Okay, where do we start with the queen? Do you have anything to say, belle?
Speaker 2I do actually.
Speaker 3Well, I think we should start with the biggest thing that happened.
Speaker 2Since last Friday, since last Friday.
Speaker 1Okay.
Speaker 3Was that Travis Kelsey joined Taylor Swift on stage?
Speaker 2Yes. During the ERA's tour that's what I had, a comment on.
Speaker 3And the story is that travis kelsey was the mastermind behind his hilarious eras tour cameo at wembley stadium. Oh goodness, so about his onstage debut with Taylor Swift and how it came to be.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 3He revealed that he was the one who first pitched it to his superstar girlfriend and okay, can I just? Stab you there, although she may have made a few tweaks to his plan. Well, can I at least give the facts.
Speaker 2Yes, but can I say, I told you so. Okay go Give the facts.
Speaker 3Well, he apparently told Tay, that's what he says.
Speaker 2Yeah, he calls her Tay.
Speaker 3He was like how funny would it be if I just rolled out on one of the bikes during the 1989 era? Okay, my first question is there's bikes in 1989 era I never saw them. Why do I have never seen them in the live stream? We need to see this. I don't understand. I don't understand. I don't understand where the bikes even came from. Are there bikes? Are we am?
Speaker 2I crazy. I wasn't sure if there were bikes, or he just said maybe he would ride a bike across, but there apparently are bikes. When? When are there bikes? I don't know, because I want to know exactly what phrase that's on of the song and I want to know which song.
Speaker 3Shake it Off no.
Speaker 2No, you wouldn't shake it off on a bike.
Taylor Swift's Collaborations and Controversies
Speaker 3Blank Space Like where are the bikes? Can you please find them?
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3Okay, everyone hold for bike riding. Maybe he just said like one of the bikes on stage. Oh, so there are what song?
Speaker 2How do bikes make this line up?
Speaker 3Oh no, Belle's googling yeah.
Speaker 2So those glowing bikes in the 1989 section look like they're straight out of Tron and I want one. Someone says so they're like. I'll get a pull up a video.
Speaker 3Okay, but don't have the sound on, because then we will get flagged.
Speaker 2Here they are. Look at them all. Why have we never seen them?
Speaker 3When are those? What song is this? Put it to your ear, so you.
Speaker 2Sorry, I got scared. I heard the sound.
Speaker 3It's Blank Space. Yeah, I see the bikes. Okay, so he wanted to be on a bike yeah during that and she said no, um well, no, she didn't say no, but she figured she started laughing and she was like would you seriously be up for doing something like that? I was just like I would love to do that. Are you kidding me? I've seen show enough Might as well. Put me to work here, oh. And sure enough, she found the perfect part of the show for me to come in. That's what he said.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3She vetoed the bike riding bit and she decided to have him end up appearing in I Can Do it With a Broken Heart during the Tortured Poets Department, set as one of her backup dancers, theatrically coaxing her to keep performing even though she is totally drained after singing the smallest, the smallest man who ever lived. There was no bike in case I ran into somebody else or hit one of the dancers, travis explained, laughing. It was the safest option.
Speaker 2Yep.
Speaker 3So then he did tell himself this is the big line that everyone's talking about do not drop the baby. The golden rule was do not drop Taylor. Get her to the couch safely.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 3Very true. And then he gave a shout out to Tay For letting him jump up on stage with her.
Speaker 2So so All I'm going to say is I told you so because I knew. That was never Taylor's idea. I told you he's an opportunist, uh oh, and he's been tryingist, Uh-oh, and he's been trying to get in there and he finally persuaded her and she thinks, oh, he's so funny, he's so cute, blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 3No, this is for himself, I mean it made pretty big headlines.
Speaker 2Yep for himself.
Speaker 3I really hope not.
Speaker 2I don't know, I'm into the.
Speaker 3TNT.
Speaker 2So was I, and every time there's just something happens and I'm like not good or cringe, or this was not his idea, and I knew, I knew.
Speaker 3No, not her idea.
Speaker 2No, not her idea. Yeah, and I knew it. I said it as soon as it happened. I said this was all on him. He wanted to be on that stage.
Speaker 3He's really got her wrapped around his finger.
Speaker 2Yes, he does. And boy is he going to be in trouble if anything happens, Because the Swifties are going to kill him.
Speaker 1And I will be first on line If anything happens, because the Swifties are going to kill him.
Speaker 2Oh, he's going to and I will be first on line Because I just I don't know it's really, it's very manipulative. Do you call it?
Speaker 3I mean, I see what you're saying, it seems a little, it seems a little obvious Self-serving.
Speaker 1Mm-hmm.
Speaker 2I don't know I still got the jury out again about him.
Speaker 3I mean, he's very he likes the spotlight, he likes doing all that performing. Yeah, oh goodness.
Speaker 2And his way is to make Taylor.
Speaker 3A year ago today, he was just making friendship bracelets.
Speaker 2A year ago today he was trying to get, trying to give her his number.
Speaker 3Yeah, and now he's on the stage with her, I know.
Speaker 2Big mistake, Taylor. Whatever Did you hear that no?
Speaker 3I heard the owl before. Now I'm hearing this other sound. Nope, I don't hear it anymore.
Speaker 2Anyway, I only heard the owl before.
Speaker 3So I know that you are not happy about this.
Speaker 2Not happy about this.
Speaker 3Well, we have, let's just, I'm going to give it the benefit of the doubt.
Speaker 2I've been trying, I'm still trying.
Speaker 3Well, did you see next story about this whole Eros tour and all the updates? How, in Dublin, he showed up to the show where Stevie. Nicks was at it and Julia Roberts, yes. Show where Stevie Nicks was at it and Julia Roberts, yes. And when he arrived Taylor Swift saw when he arrived, apparently, and her face like lit up, like this huge smile. She was so happy that he got there well everybody, there's all these videos of her.
Speaker 2All the Swifties are saying that, but we don't know for sure.
Speaker 3It's that oh well, it kind of. I watched the video. It does look like that, but who knows exactly?
Speaker 2we don't know. A lot of things look like something and they're not.
Speaker 3We don't know for sure true well, that's that's the narrative going on, but did you see?
Speaker 2the swifties are mad at julia I know that was my next story. Sorry, go well, yeah, the swifties are a little mad.
Speaker 3Well, yeah, the Swifties are a little mad at Julia Roberts, and it all stems from well. Also, it stems from their interaction under the tent.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 3And also a lip reader actually revealed what Julia Roberts allegedly said to Travis Kelsey. Oh those lip readers there? Yes, so apparently Julia Roberts was gushing over Travis Kelsey's relationship with Taylor Swift during the new viral handsy video. They call it because she was all over, travis, apparently.
Speaker 1Yes, I saw it.
Speaker 3Apparently, she's told him I'm so unusually happy for you guys, and I don't mean to make you nervous, but it makes me so happy. That's what roberts allegedly said, according to the lip reader, and that video has gone viral now also in the video, she's touching travis his chest and everything and being very handy and the swifties are not happy about it. Not happy they. They slammed roberts for getting touchy fe. Why is she scratching his chest and pushing herself into him? He is so uncomfortable trying to push her off and she holds him up.
Speaker 1Maybe she was tipsy.
Speaker 2This is uber strange. Maybe, Wait, but can I ask?
Speaker 3Yes.
Speaker 2Did we ever know they were friends, Julia Roberts and Taylor.
Speaker 3Swift. I don't even know if Julia Roberts is friends, maybe it's just like. That's like saying like anyone super famous, if they reached out to Taylor Swift, they probably would get into the tent and get in a different random country.
Speaker 2Like what is she doing there? I'm so confused why she was there.
Speaker 3Maybe she's friends with Stevie Nicks. Why was Stevie Nicks there? Stevie Nicks lives in Dublin. Why were they in?
Speaker 2Dublin, no, but does Stevie Nicks live in London or something?
Speaker 3Yeah, but then why didn't she go to London? Why did she go to Dublin?
Speaker 2Probably because Taylor's tent was full in London. So she said you can come to Dublin, which is like a train ride away.
Speaker 3So she was a B-lister, yeah, like not an A-lister for London, I would think. So what, stevie Nicks, are you kidding? No, I think maybe they just picked a city that they want to go to.
Speaker 2Oh, maybe I don't know. I just found it strange. Julia Roberts was there. I was like who are you? Why are you there? Do you even know who Taylor is? I guess?
Speaker 3they're friends.
Speaker 2I didn't know that.
Speaker 3Well, she is trying to make friends with Academy Award winning actors because she's going to be directing an Academy Award winning film at some point.
Speaker 2Did you think she brought Julia Roberts here? Maybe she reached out.
Speaker 3Yeah, maybe she wants Julia Roberts here. You mean, maybe she reached out. Yeah, maybe she wants Julia Roberts to be in something of hers in the future. So she's making the connection now.
Speaker 2Smart businesswoman Well, yes, we know she's that. Sometimes, smart queen, the boyfriends come into play. Maybe she's going to have Julia play an older her.
Speaker 3Maybe, maybe, yeah, you never know, never know. There's always a reason, always a reason. Maybe that's who she wants to be in her film, I don't know. Yeah, I don't know if it's an older her.
Speaker 2Whatever?
Speaker 3You think Taylor's going to do a movie about herself?
Speaker 2No.
Speaker 3I don't think so. She's going to do a movie about herself?
Speaker 2No, I don't think so. She's going to do something artistic, yeah.
Speaker 3Travis would do that. She's going to do something creative, artistic, maybe based, maybe a little inspired by her or something Could be inspired by her music Like yeah, like the All Too Well video, but I don't think something like the story of Taylor Swift.
Speaker 2No, no, I don't think so, I'm just saying and do you think Taylor's still coming to Broadway?
Speaker 3Yep, the Female Rage, the Musical.
Speaker 2I do.
Speaker 3Okay, just wanted to get your temperature. Taylor's coming.
Speaker 2But Broadway's not big enough, the temperature for that. It's too small here the amount of shows she sells out in the USA Every show, Okay. So everybody who doesn't know, Broadway picture the largest Broadway theater house is only not even an eighth of one arena, a stadium, yeah. So that means if she's selling out one night, she would need to have for that one night at least eight to ten Broadway show days to sell the same amount of tickets. It's crazy. She's doing something, but I don't know what.
Speaker 3Yes, we'll see, we'll see, we'll see. Okay, so my last story about taylor the queen queen was just about how, after the shows um in dublin that they went out in to a dublin bar yes, they did taylor swift, travis kelsey, stevie nicks and paramore yeah and the bar it was called hacienda bar in dublin, ireland, and they actually posted. Do you want to see what they posted? Do you want to hear it? Yeah, their caption. Yeah, do you know this, arati, I do.
Speaker 2Oh, I know everything.
Golden Retriever at Olympic Trials
Speaker 3Let's go Well anyway. They just said how it was such a warm and genuinely friendly night and that they did not request their usual Hacienda photo, because apparently that's the trend for this bar there's a hacienda photo. Um, because they wanted to allow taylor and friends the chance to properly relax and enjoy their well-deserved time off so that was nice it was very nice.
Speaker 2they said that the this place what do you call it a pub? That the pub was. Everyone was so accommodating and nice. They had a good time. Apparently, apparently, the Stevie Nicks lady maybe knew it. Wow, maybe the Stevie Nicks lady knows the owner.
Speaker 3I think that's epic, that Stevie Nicks went to the show.
Speaker 2I don't know if I know what she sings Fleetwood Mac, I've heard of that.
Speaker 3Landslide, the most epic Landslide, the most epic song How's it? Go Landslide down and down.
Speaker 2Maybe Don't know what I mean.
Speaker 1I know of them. You're three years old.
Speaker 3I know of them.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, but they apparently had fun there, the most epic. If I was sitting with Stevie Nicks, taylor and Travis, I don't even know if I could drink my water out of my glass properly. Well, yeah, I'd probably just sit there and stare at them Not at Travis, but at Stevie Nicks and Taylor.
Speaker 3I know like what conversations were had, I would just listen.
Speaker 2I don't know what could they talk about? The crowd, the show.
Speaker 3Okay, so it goes. Took my love, took it down, Climbed a mountain and I turned around and I saw my reflection in a snow-covered hill To the landslide.
Speaker 2I know it now.
Speaker 3I've heard that song.
Speaker 2Yes.
Speaker 3Okay, I've heard it. Thank you, belle. Sorry, because I was so nervous.
Speaker 2I've heard it. I've heard it.
Speaker 3Yes, I've heard that now, that song is epic I. I've heard it.
Speaker 2I've heard it. Yes, I've heard that now.
Speaker 3That song is epic. I've heard it.
Speaker 2Sorry, yeah, I can't believe it, I know. So Anyway, anyway, now.
Speaker 3That is my pop queen culture, pretty much Anything else you want to add to the mix of that, because I know you hear a lot of things.
Speaker 2Yeah, do you know that they supposedly went away after Dublin, taylor and Travis. Where'd they go? Some spa, some Greek island or somewhere beautiful, and they rented out the whole place and she just got to go to the spa or something. Why did I not see this story. Maybe it's not true then.
Speaker 3Maybe Some Greek spa.
Speaker 2I don't know Somewhere, some beautiful island somewhere. Good for her.
Speaker 3Yeah, she's got her own place. Now she's in Amsterdam.
Speaker 2Yeah, she had one last night. Yeah, supposedly pretty good.
Speaker 3Apparently.
Speaker 2Yeah, fabulous, of course.
Speaker 3But of course I don't really have any other stories, except that scientists have invented a machine that can turn air into water oh cool.
Speaker 2So how do we do that?
Speaker 3there's so much um. A prototype successfully pulled liters of water from dry air, a promising advancement as water scarcity becomes an increasing global problem. Now people would say, oh, like, isn't that just a dehumidifier? Yeah, but it's not. It's a.
Speaker 2It's a better like a much better version where you can actually you know drink the water and so we need those in all of these third world countries, then that don't get water exactly, wow bring them over um, but that was a story that I saw very interesting. Yeah, that's really cool.
Speaker 3Nothing else. There was a Hamptons white party where every, I think like Kim Kardashian and everyone went for July 4th, the usual party. Glad we weren't invited. It looked like a bunch of Same people. Yeah, just honestly looked kind of awful actually from the photos. Yeah, just honestly looked kind of awful actually from the photos.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's been like the parties out there have been kind of.
Speaker 3Yeah, but this is like the the tradition. This is the traditional Michael Rubin white party and of course, kim and her posse was there and it honestly looked boring. No one very interesting was there. Yeah, anyway, we had more fun. That was about it. Nothing really to report other than that.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 3I think we can go to pop culture.
Speaker 2Oh, going on to pop culture. So the first thing is meet Beacon, the golden retriever who had an important role in the US Olympic gymnastic trials. Do you?
Speaker 3know, that. Okay, I'm hearing it again that sound what? It's a weird sound.
Speaker 2I don't know. Don't hear it. The talented men and women of the US gymnastics had someone special on hand to provide support during the recent US gymnastics trials ahead of Paris Olympic. The four-year-old golden retriever named Beacon is the first therapy dog. He received his own credentials for the trials. The USAG, which is the USA Gymnastics, hired him part-time to comfort the gymnasts and staff. Beacon's role was vital during the trials in Minneapolis, where gymnasts competed for a spot on the USA team For Paris. He holds the USAG team's goodest boy title attended the trials which ran the 27th through the 30th. His handler, tracy Molnar, who has had beacons since he was a puppy, told ESPN they stated the puppy was a service animal before she had him certified as a therapy dog. Anyway, this guy, I want this jacket.
Speaker 2Oh Look at him Good for him.
Speaker 3Yeah, look at that Slaying. Yeah, USA red. Wait, I'm kind of jealous right now.
Speaker 2That's what I said. I was like what the heck?
Speaker 3I kind of want this jacket.
Speaker 2I would have gone to Minneapolis and helped them. So, keeping with the Olympic theme, michael Phelps and other sports figures on how their dogs energize and support them.
Speaker 3We didn't even talk about the Olympic trials, really, that we watched them? Oh yeah, Did you?
Speaker 2guys watch. That was amazing. I didn't take notes.
Speaker 3That's why we forgot about it. Yeah, totally forgot. Guys watch that was amazing.
Speaker 2I didn't take notes Back to banter. That's why we forgot about it. Yeah, totally forgot. Wow, it was amazing. It was amazing. Simone was 12 feet up in the air. Yep, how do you do that? That's crazy. I thought I jumped high. Yeah, michael Phelps is the world's most decorated Olympian and there's someone who regularly outraces him, his great Dane Onyx. When we're out running, she always wants to be faster, she always wants to get ahead of me. She's so super strong and I have to let her win, so this is what keeps him going. Apparently, there's a new docuseries with sports figures and Purina Pro Plan has partnered with it. So see, we've got Michael Phelps, aaron Andrews and Olivia Dunn. I would like to watch it. I'm giving it the abbreviated version because we talked just so much today.
Speaker 3We talked so much about the queen.
Speaker 2Yeah, so I'm going to skip this story. It's just about Kevin Costner says that he's just like his seventh month old puppy you don't have to rush.
Speaker 3People love to hear this, don't you everyone.
Speaker 2Gps. Well, I've got a really good one for number four, gossip pup society. My number four is really good.
Speaker 3Okay then.
Speaker 2So Kevin Costner, we know we talked about the puppy he adopted.
Speaker 1His.
Speaker 2Labrador named Bobby. He says I'm like Bob. He explains that he and his canine buddy, share the same tendency and go from extreme passivity in their everyday lives to full-on locked-in mode where they're all fire on all cylinders. So Bob gets in the car. He doesn't care where he goes. He's lazy, he sleeps, he goes woof at the door if someone's out there. But if I put him on a field you see his IQ go up 30 points. He looks like an Adonis of dogs. He just knows exactly who he is. Kosterner adds so, he's saying that.
Speaker 2That's what happens to him himself, kevin Kosterner, when he starts on a project like he's his new Western horizon, the American saga.
Speaker 1When he starts on a project, he goes full speed. When he's off a project, he's lazy and sluggy, so he and Barbara are like it kind of sounds like me.
Speaker 2I think it sounds like everybody.
Speaker 3Yeah, it's like when you're in something.
Speaker 2It's like You're in the mode. You're like yeah. You're in the mode like yeah, you're flying yeah but then when it's over, it's like oh yeah, it's over and it's kind of like I'll just hang out now on the couch kind of thing. So this last story, which I did not want to eliminate because we have had gator culture in the past, okay, I'm sorry there is something going on.
Speaker 3There is some what Wait, move a little bit. I know what it is Belle, what it's your headphone wire hitting the microphone wire. This it keeps.
Speaker 2I don't hear it at all.
Speaker 3There we go Okay.
Speaker 2Don't hear it at all it kind of sounds like a rattlesnake. I heard the owl, but I didn't hear that Anyway. So, as I was saying, you know how we have had gator culture etc. In the past.
Speaker 2Yes of course. Well, this is snapping turtle culture. Okay, a snapping turtle pulled a terrified puppy into an Alabama creek as a man raced to help. Terrified puppy into an Alabama creek as a man raced to help. The man was in the Crossville area when a group heard horrifying cries behind a home. The sound led them to a horrifying scene on the water. They went to check it out, saw a puppy being dragged by the back leg into the creek by a snapping turtle, into the creek by a snapping turtle. The man rushed down, picked up the turtle which, by their surprise, had him free the puppy. Oh, okay.
Speaker 2The puppy was scared, I would imagine so they took him right to the vet and to the shelter. Look, he's so scared. First of all, how big is a snapping turtle? Is it like one of those?
Speaker 3big turtles.
Speaker 2It has to be, because this is not a little pup like us.
Speaker 3He was trying to escape, apparently, and was screaming Snapping turtle. I want to see how big. Oh wait, this is a huge turtle.
Speaker 2He's the pup.
Speaker 3They're large freshwater turtles. They're big, they're big. So that's why these are not little turtles.
Speaker 2Like he could have swallowed us whole that turtle, but he was trying to get this puppy fought and he had injuries on his leg, but he's fine now and he's ready to be adopted. Where does this was? Did this happen? Alabama?
Speaker 3okay, I'm just seeing what other states there's. Are there snapping turtles in new york? I don't think so. Are snapping turtles in new york only the snapping turtle and the painted turtle are really common across new york. Oh, snappers are the largest New York freshwater turtles Wait, where do we have freshwater here? Reaching shell lengths of 19 inches and weights of 70 pounds.
Speaker 2Whoa this is in Crossville, alabama, so there are snapping turtles in New York. We should be aware. Okay, we're not going near any what's freshwater?
Speaker 3here though Freshwater ponds.
Speaker 2Ponds? We don't have ponds near us, not really. We have oceans.
Speaker 3And rivers.
Speaker 2Yeah, no ponds. Ooh Whoa Tink. Is that your hungry?
Speaker 3I think I'm hungry. See, I ate breakfast. Tink was like I don't want breakfast. I'm good my stomach, yeah.
Speaker 2So that was my fourth story, which I had to have because yeah, the strangest sounds Like ASMR episode here. Yeah, We've never had snapping turtle culture, so I just had to include it. Yes, I mean I'm missing my gator culture. Nothing's been on the news about these guys lately. Have you seen anything?
Speaker 3No, I mean I did see the gator that was hanging out underneath the public's shopping carts, yeah, and they had to rope it all off, but that's kind of different than my gator culture.
Speaker 2My gator culture usually involves yeah, it's usually an intense, it involves the dogs or something.
Speaker 3No, no, gator culture usually involves a dog.
Speaker 2No gator culture really. I've seen have you seen any shark culture, maybe next week we can do some shark culture. Yeah, there's apparently, like sharks are wild, so many attacks, yes, which is why I don't think I want to go in the ocean anytime soon.
Speaker 3Yeah well, Whatever. I don't think we want to go in the ocean anytime soon. Yeah well, Whatever. I don't think we are for a while.
Speaker 2Who knows? We don't know where lives lead us every day.
Speaker 1We'll see.
Speaker 3We'll see. Wow, what an episode.
