I Love Your Dance, Stars: Wednesday, September 17th, 2025

0:20I sound amazing. welcome back to the chosen happy what is it wednesday wednesday wednesdays wednesday okay like it's not what i was hoping for when i said what day is it i thought maybe you were gonna say thursday it's the day of the wens of the wedness let's just move on from that yeah i really didn't mean to start out on a negative note but when the world around us is so negative i can really only do so much yeah so let's just like leave that there um do what we do which is spread joy and light and get us into that latter half of the week let's get that latter half of the week energy going let's get it rolling oh it's my wedding anniversary yeah you didn't wish me a happy anniversary that's fine I actually was chuckling because you posted on social media a clip of the song that Zach wrote me and you posted it right now today and I'm like happy anniversary coaches here's a song for your sister correct I'm never not thinking of you even on a day that like should be about me um but yeah it's my anniversary not a big deal uh happy anniversary mazel tov such an amazing feat eight years strong yeah you know what actually just like longer talked about this on the toast but like you guys know like a running joke is that like i absolutely hated my wedding because i was like so fat and ugly um and it's just sort of like a fun fact about me you know i hated my wedding and i've actually done like a total 360 on it But you posted one story that alluded to this.

1:50That's how I know that you've done a 360 and I was happy to see it. But but walk us through those feelings. I did a Q &A and somebody asked me something about my wedding. And it was the first time I recognized. I was like, wait, no, I don't hate. It's part of my story. Like, yes, I'm so weight obsessed. I'm like sick in the head. I hate my former fat self. Like you guys know this is something I struggle with. I'm sure you're tired of hearing about it. And I really let that infiltrate like hatred of my own wedding, you know, especially like also the mole on my face, which I really didn't want to mention.

2:15but it bears repeating, you know? So somebody had asked me a question on my Q &A, which was the first time I didn't have this, like, visceral reaction, like, ugh, I have to go scrounge up a wedding photo. It was like, ugh, let me go down memory lane. And I think maybe it's the birth of my son, you know? He wouldn't be here if it weren't for that moment, if it weren't for that mole, if it weren't for that big, fat ass. So, I don't know, I just, like, I don't hate anymore. That ass that got the guy. Right, and we were so little, and we were so happy. Like, if you were skinny a rink, like, and you were just a different girl, like, maybe you and Ben wouldn't have connected in the way that you did.

2:46A thousand percent. So thank you to that girl for this boy. A thousand percent. I believe you called it on your story. You put it very sweetly. You said Ruby's origin story. Yeah. No, it's so cute. Like, I really have no problems with it now. I love looking at photos. Actually, so much so that I'm really crazy. I never even had my wedding books made because, like, I really did not like the way that I looked. And over the summer, I actually contacted my wedding photographer and I was like, hey, remember me? I got married eight years ago. I'd like my books now I'm ready for them emotionally I too am getting the itch six years on to make a wedding book mostly so that my kids can look at it because even when we went to a wedding last weekend and then we were telling them about our wedding and then they wanted to look at like pictures from our wedding so we like had to show them on our phone but I'd love to just like give them a book that they could look at so I feel ready to make a wedding book now it's too hard to do right after the event like you're too close to it you're too close to it it's like it's so much drama it's like when you're done with your wedding it's like I don't want any part of that I don't want any more work associated with the wedding yeah I feel like after six years I have recovered yeah me too I could enjoy the bookmaking process and I could also ask our fab we have the same photographer Anthony Vasquez fab best in the biz um like could you just choose the pictures like you know the family meant like choose the highlights you know like I don't want to get so in the weeds because then it's like well I need one where I did my soft smile and one where I did my teat smile like I just choose too many pictures I had a book made for photos from Ruby's bris where I obviously like looked like the worst version of myself eight days postpartum like I didn't even care and that's what really gave me the itch to start making books I make books now as well for like big um events or like family trips and so that we can like look at the books after the kids birthday parties and I love them and now it's like I'm a human being who has my shit together when I have like so much stuff going on and now I have time to make books But when I had nothing going on back in 2019, I had I had no time to make a wedding book.

4:40I just feel like photo books are making a return. Maybe that's my personal experience. I think that's our growth journeys. It's just like so crazy how I couldn't do it then. But now I will. Speaking of journeys, Jackie and I both. Yeah, that's right. Jackie joined. Started our Dancing with the Stars journey last night. We tuned in for two hours of cable commercial fun. How do you want to. Are we doing a TV recap? Is there a story? It wasn't a story, so I think TV recap at the end, or I could make it a story, but I don't want to - I wouldn't make it a story, because it's going to be chunky. Okay.

5:13I don't want to bore, maybe the fifth story. I don't want to bore the people who didn't watch. But even though what I'm gathering is everybody watches the show. If I watched Dancing with the Stars last night, they're doing something right. I was sat, killed the lights. I was like, look at this. How have I been missing this? Also, what's so crazy is we went to the set of Dancing with the Stars when - We did. And fun fact, like when you're on Dancing with the Stars, they ask you to like bring any famous or influential friends that you have to come sit in the audience as your, quote, friends and family.

5:42Well, yeah. To have like new people every week, too. Right. So like by the 11th week, Lauren and Lena had run out of famous friends and she invited us. And it was actually so much fun. We weren't like we didn't know enough about the lore, but it was still just like a fabulous, fun thing. And Lauren crushed it. She made it really, really far that season. So, yeah, we were like, we're with Lauren. Yeah. no shouts out to whoever is in charge of this season of Dancing with the Stars you've done something right because it's on everyone's radar the fact that I was sat I was so aware of it all night I was like oh it's 7 30 I guess yeah starts at 8 and like by 8 I was sat and the boys were down and I was like okay yeah I'll watch sure and I love dancing I love like showmanship I love the greatest show like it's very like performance and I really like that stuff and it's it's very high quality and they're such great dancers especially when the pros do their thing like I'm really the perfect candidate to watch it you are and my my concern of like abc abusing my time so many commercial breaks so much like fake package corny shit i actually was pleasantly surprised it's because there's a lot of contestants and i'm sure the later we get on in the season it gets really fillery but last night you know what i had an a plus experience and i have so many thoughts on the dances that i can't wait to share oh my gosh we're gonna go dance by dance i also just want to say like the idea that they have to like do a sideline interview after they've just danced their hearts out.

7:00And by the way, they have to run upstairs. They can't speak. They're out of breath. They have dry mouth. And like Julianne, who has boundless energy and hasn't just danced, like is expecting them to say anything. That needs rejiggering. That part of the show needs rejiggering. A thousand percent. At least at the bare minimum, make that little lounge area where everybody waits around. Like not up a set of stairs. Yeah. And like everybody in the back just has to like stand there and smile for two hours. Like it's. I felt bad for Alex Earl. They kept putting her like right at the center and she was just like teasing.

7:29No, it's really great. so that needs work but other than that we had a great time and we'll recap it in the fifth and final story sounds good um i spent my evening at the at the mikvah i know you did so for those who don't know mikvah is a jewish sort of sanctuary it's not like yeah it's not like a synagogue although some synagogues have mikvahs oh you probably know what a mikvah is if you've seen sex in the city where charlotte converted it's like it's kind of like a baptism it's like the water you dunk in um to convert um you go for a bunch of reasons and last night i went it's a very common reason to go before you get married and our swirly margo not ash right um is having her wedding this weekend so she went and all the girls come and you like celebrate and cheer and eat candy and then if you're single like you dip your feet in to get like a little bit of the magic water um so all the single girls were like running around barefoot it was really cute and then i ran to like a million toasters like in the lobby in the mikvah yeah so in if you're uh practicing modern orthodox woman you are the mikvah once a month um it's like synced with your cycle um it's all about you know fertility and things like that and so i saw a couple of swirlies i think just finishing their periods or getting married or converting yeah yeah yeah yeah well that's fun it was really sweet I haven't been to the McFan a minute and it's very pargy it's like a spa cause you have to go and you have to get super clean you're not allowed to wear nail polish cause the water like is super it's like a natural spring water or whatever so you have to like scrub when the bride came out of like her little bridal suite where you take a shower and you take your nail polish off she was bright red she had like scrubbed every inch of her body soaking wet hair she looked great so yeah I went to the McFan very beautiful yeah very beautiful experience did you do any sort of ritual bathing last night no i mean i took a shower i made a salmon so i felt really proud of myself my chef was out of town last night so i had to cook my chef trout um so i cooked for like myself and the family and i made salmon so i felt really proud and string beans and couscous because i'm like so healthy ever since the hamptons like seriously call me gwyneth paltrow i'm so fucking healthy i want to say something what you don't like couscous and i hate to say it because it's actually an israeli dish and on the box it said like israeli style pasta and i was like oh my god they're supporting israel like and yeah like 100 everyone go out and buy couscous having said that it's disgusting like i love it i'm sorry it's not disgusting i take that back sorry i had the i didn't have the little like tiny microscopic yellow balls i had the bigger brown the big the larger off-white creamy balls okay those are better but like yellow couscous let's talk about like the really tiny grainy i just want to say what i have was basically pasta balls israel like that is not the vibe it's really not good sorry no it's not even not good because it doesn't taste bad but it's like it's obviously used as a dish where you would use like rice or pasta or so something like that and of all the ones i'm choosing couscous dead last i don't know it was calling to me and i got the pearls not the pearls are better than like the tiny beads yeah and the pearls kind of taste like orzo the kids were like what is this i'm like you'll eat it and you'll like it literally miss hannigan kayla loved it she loves couscous okay like love that for her she obviously doesn't know any better no the pearls are good claudia and i cook them plain like olive oil salt i feel about couscous the way i also feel about orzo it's like a blend is it a rice is it a pasta um i don't really like orzo anytime i've had or so it's been disgusting except over the summer in the hamptons i did have like this corn orzo it's corso it was fucking amazing but i like orzo because you could also like make it healthy i actually had orzo with my lunch yesterday so i'm just loving all shapes of pasta right now she's non-denominational when it comes to pasta being committed to a wellness journey and then i had doctor's appointments you know when you sometimes are just there on the wrong day and it takes forever millennia oh my god all the pregnant ladies in the waiting room were chit chatting oh we had our feet up we were cackling oh that's funny i didn't i couldn't relate to that because i was like close personal friends with my doctor during my pregnancy where like i got special treatment he never made me wait dr fox so i actually don't know what you're talking about i never experienced that pregnant camaraderie sometimes things get backed up but you also uh you know thank hashem like we weren't high risk where like you have a lot of stuff you have like a lot of things to do.

12:03I had a lot of things to do. So we were having fun. What? We're Gucci? Yeah. Yeah. Bitch. Chugging along. What else did I want to tell you? They haven't commented on my weight loss yet. They haven't? No. I just like. Did you get weighed? No. I actually get weighed today. I wasn't at the weighing one yesterday. I'm going to the weighing one today. And I just like wonder if they're going to notice that I'm like getting smashed. Maybe they're going to tell you to start like getting a little bit more. I actually don't know how much I weighed up until this point. So I don't, maybe just the whole time I thought I weighed so much more than I did.

12:40That's the best feeling. And I've been like tracking just normally and I didn't even know. There's nothing better than being normal. True. That's what you find in pregnancy. Like you just want to be normal. Yeah. Every appointment, like the skin. Average. You don't want to be, yep. Good. But right in the middle with everybody else. Don't look at me. I don't know a thing. I don't know a thing. What's it from? Chessie Don't look at me I don't know what Of course Oh Chessie was out Dancing with the Stars Did you see her? Yes it was a very Chessie coated evening Supporting Meredith Blake Did you wear your Finest button down In support?

13:12No but you did today No I'm wearing a Piece of Toast merch I know but it has the buttons It's Chessie influence It has that Chessie flair She would love it Not to be like so annoying And like contrarian Kind of like you There's not a single button On this shirt There's no buttons there? No and it doesn't go down All the way this is like an iconic piece of toast merch that sold out instantly it's pretty cool it's pretty cool what's that from snl vanessa bayer we quote it's we call it quote snl i'm pretty sure like vanessa bayer used to do a skitch like making fun of miley cyrus and she'd be like oh yes pretty cool vanessa bayer's funny um it's there's so many like references that are part of our everyday life even not like from the show, like from when we were growing up.

14:00Like, and it's hard to remember that some of them are references, not just like things we made up. No, I know. We need to take a minute. Like if we try and like stop every time we do a reference and like just figure out where it's from. Originate it. Yeah. If you hear something, say something. Well, that's from the MTA. Correct. They ate down bad with that one. Okay. Let's get into the stories because as we said, we have a chunky chunkster for you. so without further ado.do.do here are the fast five stories that you.do need to know.

You're welcome. our first story a little wedding news from the kelsey swifts travis was on his podcast uh they had guest jimmy fallon on which is just an interesting fact i guess he's promoting i saw jimmy fallon this morning like seriously no one works harder in hollywood especially in the late night game like attempting to stay relevant and cover all bases right like right he's seriously like he could be one thing i like about jimmy fallon is like he could seriously be bought i I feel like he like doesn't care when Colbert got canceled and everyone was like rallying for Colbert saying it was like a political attack.

20:09The next day, Jimmy Fallon had like this huge Republican on. And then last night he was singing this like actually embarrassing song about belly, Conrad and Jeremiah. Like there's nothing this man won't do to keep his show on the air. And I actually applaud him for it. Honestly. Well, going on new heights is a good place to start. I think he's promoting. I saw a commercial for his new marketing show. Remember, we talked about it a few months ago. On brand with Bozoma St. James. I think I sent you the trailer. I had seen it already. Yes. And so I think like they're revving up promotion for the show.

20:38And so he went on New Heights and he's asking some of the important questions. Asking if they started wedding planning. And you know that Jimmy and Taylor are like good friends. Yeah. Travis actually hysterical said that's the next step. That's the next step in it all. And Jimmy said don't stress about it. I remember thinking about it with my wife. Travis said that one's going to be easy. I just got to figure out how to win a football game first. he said the wedding would be easy compared to how to fucking catch a goddamn football because i guess i saw him catch a ball on sunday night's game but i guess he missed a very important couch in the end zone that would have like meant the chiefs won the game and that's the second game in a row that he did that so at least he's like poking fun at trav's self um but he's not like slaying in the way that i thought he was okay i need to talk about travis i forgot to tell you this i'm sure you don't know do you know about free four what was that free four free free four okay so i actually fell down this rabbit hole last night people are mad at travis yeah people are mad at travis and like i actually agree with them so there is this drama i'm sure you didn't hear about it but there's a player on the cheese his name is rasheed rice and he was driving 120 miles an hour in his Lamborghini and he caused this like six car pile up.

21:58He drove away. He didn't call the police like really bad. And he ended up kind of getting a slap on the wrist. I think he got like a couple of years of probation,$135 ,000 fine. I am familiar with that story. It's a multi-car crash. Yeah, it was really bad. I'm sorry he also owes a million dollar settlement to the clients and he also so that was like there were a couple of legal repercussions I feel like he might have had to serve like 30 days in jail I can't remember and the Chiefs or the NFL I'm not sure who suspended him for six games like you know you can't act like that whatever his name is Rishi Rice I guess he's number four and then Travis and like a bunch of the guys while warming up for the game are wearing these shirts that say free four number four basically free rishi rice from like this six game suspension anyone die in the car accident i don't think so not that that like changes what he did but just want to know so by the way the suspension was from the nfl he received the suspension after pleading guilty to two felony charges of the crash in which he fled the scene after sending multiple cars spinning on the dallas highway and a couple he sent a couple to the hospital so no nobody died he ended up receiving five years probation and 30 days in jail and then he settled a lawsuit for a million dollars plus which he has not paid yet okay so this is just not like the most stand-up gentleman yeah and then travis is over here like wearing this shirt which i actually like really don't agree with yeah what like free four from the six game suspension that he has it it doesn't specify after free four there's just like a couple of pictures of number four he's experiencing the six game suspension yes that's nothing yeah no i'm not with travis on that yeah i feel like it's really weird because i don't know what the other side is but it's like not i haven't seen it like it's kind of black and white like you did something wrong you're bad you're the bad guy the worst part was that like he walked away from it like he didn't stop and try and help like he caused this yeah no it's really really bad And so to wear a shirt, like, that's really not the vibe.

24:05I feel like I'm missing a part of the story here. Like, why would someone advocate to free him, you know? I don't know. I don't know. That's not a good book. And Travis wasn't the only one, but he's the most famous. Yeah. No, and he's a role model. For the community. He is. Also, Jimmy asked if they were going to do DJ or band. Great question. He said, are thinking about all this stuff? He said, yeah, I think we're live music kind of people. you know which is just like funny to say the least it is but i actually feel like they would be dj people only because like when you're taylor swift like who's your band you know are you gonna have like your actual band like who plays for you right and i could see like the chain smokers djing they like to hit the clubs and listen to like dj music maybe they'll do both after party with a dj regular reception with a live band there's nothing like a live band you know what i've actually i used to be like a little bit of a snob when it came to weddings i'm like no band is preferred but honestly i kind of feel like if i were to get married again i would do a dj when i was younger i was always just like dj i want to hear the song the way it was written right itunes but then i like went to so many weddings and even in my own wedding when their band and so much value like it's just off that's you know gonna blow the roof off this place and then having like a dj also you know brings it back to like the you know classics but i i think a combo is great me too um back to the jimmy fallon beau saint james tv show it actually looks really good it's giving like a new age apprentice yeah i would give it a shot if the circumstances are right agreed you know easy to watch at a time where i have the bandwidth maybe a tuesday night at eight o 'clock that works for me i'm available um so yeah travis sharing little by little about the wedding he's not really being as cagey as you would think so i mean they that's been the surprise of the century with this whole relationship it's like it's been really not cagey at all the most public thing she's ever done yeah that's what's surprising yeah and i guess she didn't he didn't address taylor walking behind that screen not in what i've seen no okay um are you ready for our next story demi lovato went on watch what happens live is answering all the questions from camp rock three selena poot everything and it was the first episode of watch what happens live where i've watched a good chunk of it after andy's lost the 25 pounds and we talked earlier in the week if perhaps andy's weight loss would affect his overall mood which has really been bringing the show down based on what i saw he seemed super happy last night having said that whenever he has somebody really famous on he doesn't catch an attitude he saves that attitude for like the low brow bravo liberties agreed and a lot of the attitude that i've seen is sometimes you it doesn't make it to the clips like you have to watch the whole episode you have to see the transitions you have to see his face when someone gives a long answer like yeah it's in the small moments but I will agree like there is no reason for him to have been in a bad mood last night like he's looking his best Demi Lovato is a huge get I feel bad for the other person who was there from Salt Lake yeah I didn't know who that was and um I didn't see her speak so anyways Demi addresses Camp Rock 3 and revealing her favorite song from Selena's new album talking about how she's so happy for her girl engagement season um she said that she saw that Joe announced Camp Rock 3 she was pretty cagey in her answer like leaving space for the fact that like she is reviving a part of the iconic role of Mitchie um what do you think okay so she said yeah like I saw Joe announced it and you'll just have to wait and see so she's obviously a part of it in some way I've been thinking like how are you going to reimagine Camp Rock 3 while keeping some of the older legacy characters like Mitchie and Joe Jonas.

28:13I feel like Mitchie like bought the camp. Like I feel like she runs the camp now. And then she like reaches out to her old friend Shane to come and like inspire this new generation of campers. And then we like learn more about the campers, but it's not really about Mitchie. And are you here for this? actually based on what i've seen it's like joe has really been spotted filming it not demi so i feel like maybe joe's maybe shane buys the camp because he's rich and then like they're having to get back in the kitchen yeah and so he hires mitchy like because he knows she's one of the best as like a director yeah and then they rekindle they both like got divorced like something happened and then this summer brings them together so like they're young like they're 30 so okay maybe not divorced yeah it's not like they're gonna have like kids that are at camp or anything i guess no oh wait that would be cute oh they did end up together right in the film so maybe they get married and buy the camp together maybe i don't know i'll stay open to it but it has to be like really well done and like bring in kenny fucking ortega or sit down like oh bring in kenny fucking ortega they're just gonna bring in like i don't want to like i don't want to drag someone's name right now but like you do it James Cameron no but like someone like that like someone so serious who just doesn't get it yeah like Scorsese I know you want a piece of this scram yeah okay this is like a dumb question but if we want to tune into Camp Rock like are we watching the Disney channel like or is this like for adults is it gonna be on Disney plus I think Disney plus it won't be in theaters because like it's kind of random calm down random who would come out for it but it's so this is what Disney plus was made for.

29:57Right. And is it made for us or is it made for like a new generation? I think it's made for both. It's made for people our age like to watch with their kids. Because we rock. Like that movie was so good. I actually rewatched it recently like in the last like seven years. And it really withstands the test of time. Yeah. Really good. I'm cracking. It's an exciting moment for Jonas Brothers for Demi. She looked she was smiling. She has a really beautiful big smile and she could not stop smiling and i feel like we were talking yesterday her whole album is it's called it's not that deep and the whole message is like about life like it's not that deep it's fine and i feel like she was really radiating that energy when she was asked about like sort of like hot button issues like poot i know what there was a time where she would like be asked about poot and she would give a whole ass dissertation about how it's like offensive to her gender or whatever and now she's like oh when i saw it i was like yikes that's a bad angle of me and then when i found out it was photoshopped i loved it yeah like it's not that deep she was so light about everything when asked about selena like she was like i'm so happy for her she really seems like this person she's like floating almost and she was laughing and her laugh is like so big and it's so it's so mitchy it's so mitchy no matter what she does it's 20 years on and she's still mitchy she really has like the same smile she's a beautiful smile no the same voice like it's the same person in there which is just so crazy given everything that she's been she's been through yeah totally are you ready for our next story little movie news because the housemate trailer dropped it did sydney sweeney amanda seyfried um did you watch the trailer of course i did like and how did it make you feel unfortunately it made me feel right like oh i'm right again i said that this was going to be giving community theater sydney sweeney i'm sorry and i know she's getting a lot of flack recently for like selling jeans and they say she's like a white supremacist because of it i don't believe that and so i hate to like pile on she's not a good actress like That's what we should be talking about.

31:53Did you think she was what was wrong with the trailer? The whole thing. She wasn't convincing me at all. And I expected more from Amanda Seyfried. But she was also giving, like, fake acting. The whole thing was weird. And I'm not buying the husband. Like, I don't know. I'm reserving it's just a trailer. But a trailer is supposed to be the best of it. I know. The trailer did not do what a trailer is supposed to do. It did not do what Wuthering Heights did for me. but it might just be because I'm like comparing each still to like the moment in the book even the room they put her in so that room if you haven't read the book I'm not gonna spoil it but like she comes to work at a house it's like a nanny and I'm sorry yeah right the maid and they put her in this like little room up in the attic and the room becomes like just this whole part of the book and I'm sorry that room was not giving what I thought it was giving yeah it's not the way I pictured it either.

32:46I just, I feel like, yeah, I was comparing the whole trailer to like what I know that moment is in the book and it's so unfortunate it felt like community theater because it was just like people acting out. So that's why it's like impossible to read a book and like the movie. It is. I feel like if you're in the business of turning books into shows or movies, like pick ones that aren't popular because like the work is done for you but there's no pressure. Really, really good but not popular. But not like insanely popular. People are too close to it and I just want to say I think the trailer was bad not because I'm too close to it because it looked bad yeah sorry like it didn't inspire hope what about please please please I like that sort of like stripped back spooky version of it versions I like that scary I did too and I imagine if you didn't read the book and you have no expectations you probably watched the trailer and was like oh this looks lit really I really felt like it was giving like a lifetime movie in a negative way yeah but that's because we're too close to it unfortunately we can't call it i don't know how jack sees it that's from going to the movies like is becoming one of my new favorite hobbies ever since i saw downtown abbey so i'll be going to see this okay great i'm kind of going to become like you're the sandy canyon of the toast news network does that work for you you already did that for oscar season and like oh yeah it was all right but could you see like good like the real movies it's not my fault the oscar movies no no don't do it for the oscar movies because like we're not watching the oscar do it for the real movies did you see amy poehler's making waves for like coming at the oscars being like why do you never include comedies yeah your roundup like there's no category for it it's actually so true like what makes a comedy less like artistic or good than like a drama or uh does she mean comedy tv shows because emmys is tv right she was talking about oscars no comedy movies oh yeah like some of the most iconic best movies like that we've all watched never even got like they don't get they just don't even get thought of yeah they've like started to do a little bit more because golden globes has like musical or comedy category and then i feel like with the oscars they added that category of blockbusters so like you if you had a really popular comedy like the hangover would have been nominated for that right right um but yeah sure i But when you think of like the biggest movies of all time, especially also like their cultural influence, like almost all of them are comedies.

35:06And we just don't even consider them for the Oscars. Why? Because they're not serious. It doesn't have to be serious to be good. Yeah. I just feel like, girl, that's your fight. Like it's very niche. Good luck to you. Unrelatable, but wishing you well. And I know what she's saying. Like she's been a part of like some of the biggest movies of all time. Yeah. She's never been invited to the Oscars. That's crazy. Yeah. Good luck with that. Sorry that happened.

35:33okay well keep us posted i think housemate comes out december which by the way i just want to give a positive quick turnaround thank you team thank you paul feig yes yes you do deserve credit oh by the way i forgot it's paul feig and i know you guys don't want to hear this because everybody loves that movie a simple favor but i just recently saw it and it's it's also community theater like it has that element i say community theater and i feel like people don't understand that book so we're objecting we're not close to it I feel like when I say the community theater element people don't really understand what I'm talking about and I took a class once in NYU I forget what it was about it was like a media class all about how like the key to a successful piece of like entertainment media is the suspension of disbelief like you have to make me forget that I'm like in a room watching a screen where you're pretending to be a doctor right because you're so convincing that it's like oh yes there's a doctor in front of me And when I say community theater, I mean, I'm so acutely aware that I'm watching this like famous celebrity pretend to be a housewife.

36:31Like you're not convincing me at all. It could be well done in the sense that it's a high budget production. And I thought actually that the music, the set of The Housemaid was very beautiful. But I was so acutely aware that this is Karen from Mean Girls and Cassie from Euphoria adapting a book. Like I was so aware, hyper aware of it. It was not convincing. No, like you see the wigs. You see the lines right into their head. You see them thinking like, oh, I need to be looking like this, but thinking like that. Yeah, I could see their thought process. And by the way, community theater actors are not bad actors.

37:07They are new. They are up and coming sometimes. It's amateur. They're green. It's amateur. Amateur, yes. Perfect word. No shade to community theater. Zero. and actually my favorite HBO show that not my favorite, but a show I liked that got canceled. Somebody somewhere really highlighted the importance of community theater. I'm sorry. Community theater. Of course. No, I'm sure. Is community theater of New York city? Just like Broadway, the theater. You know what I mean? Like it's our community theater. Technically, but there's also like off Broadway. Yeah. Yeah. Are you ready for our next story?
