Deck the Lifetime Uncorked - Christmas in the Spotlight (Lifetime - 2024) ft. Patrick Serrano & Rebekah Frese

[00:00:00] [SPEAKER_04]: Hi, I'm Bran and I love Lifetime Christmas movies. Hi, I'm Patrick Serrano and I'm a Lifetime Movie expert. I'm Dan and I despise Lifetime Christmas movies and this is the Deck The Hallmark Podcast. Deck The Hallmark gets this podcast. Friends host this podcast. We hope you like this jolly podcast. Oh boy. Patrick, hi. Merry Christmas. Happy. How was your Thanksgiving? Was it good?

[00:00:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, so good. Gobble, gobble. Gobble, gobble to you, obviously. Yeah, of course. What did you eat the most of? Well, I just had charcuterie because my family left me for Ecuador. They're all in Ecuador. I know they like I come home, I move home and my family's like, we're gonna go to Ecuador. See you later. Why did you not get the invites to Ecuador? They could you you couldn't go with? You just didn't want to? I was I was invited, but it's I work in theater and

[00:01:10] [SPEAKER_06]: theater. You don't get to have it for no one. That's right. That's the yeah, you've seen a Christmas movie or two theater people. And also like, this is the one holiday. This is the one time a year where we get to hang out with Patrick every week. I know. And if he had gone to Ecuador, that would have been brutal. I'm pretty mad. I mean, I could still record in Ecuador. They have the Internet. They do. That's great news. You love to see that outside of America is the Internet. This is crazy.

[00:01:36] [SPEAKER_05]: Some sometimes, though, they do lose power for days. So the rainwater powers the electricity there. So if it doesn't rain, then they don't have electricity. That's turned off. Wow. They shut it down. Man, they shut it down. We are talking about Christmas in the spotlight today. Patrick, you made some demands about the way in which we're going to talk about this movie and who you wanted to talk about this movie with.

[00:02:00] [SPEAKER_05]: You've brought a guest. You brought a guest. I feel like we're setting up like show and tell. Like, what did you bring?

[00:02:06] [SPEAKER_05]: I know. So what did you bring? It is show and tell.

[00:02:09] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah. What did we have? You said he made demands like we would never have a guest on this program.

[00:02:14] [SPEAKER_06]: No, we don't do that. Patrick was like, there's somebody I'm bringing. And it was a whole thing. We had to make his rider. We didn't think it was going to happen.

[00:02:20] [SPEAKER_06]: We did. We finally came to the list. You got all those M&Ms?

[00:02:23] [SPEAKER_06]: Red M&Ms. Yeah, you got them all, though?

[00:02:24] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, just the red ones. Yeah, I got them all.

[00:02:26] [SPEAKER_01]: So we have an oldie but a goodie here. Used to be the editor of my blog. God bless because that blog has so many grammar mistakes now and was on the podcast when we covered eating disorder movies. Rebecca Fries is here. Say hi, Rebecca.

[00:02:44] [SPEAKER_06]: Hello. How are you guys?

[00:02:46] [SPEAKER_06]: Doing great. How about you?

[00:02:47] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm great.

[00:02:48] [SPEAKER_05]: So why did you quit doing the blog? Was it just the amount of work that you had to do to fix all the spelling or?

[00:02:55] [SPEAKER_02]: It really it was a lot of work and I couldn't. I had a full time job and this was another full time job and I just couldn't.

[00:03:04] [SPEAKER_01]: And I didn't have the budget to keep paying her to, you know, then I started writing a lot of blogs and I was like, I don't know if I can pay you what I've been paying you for each blog.

[00:03:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:03:15] [SPEAKER_01]: But Rebecca is here today because this movie deals with Taylor Swift and I felt like Aaron needs some backup.

[00:03:22] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, Aaron gets a lot of crap on the show being the producer, you know, and we're talking a minute.

[00:03:28] [SPEAKER_04]: Hold on, I don't know if that's fair. Aaron, do you get a lot of crap?

[00:03:32] [SPEAKER_05]: Wait, are you guys?

[00:03:33] [SPEAKER_05]: Aaron, you don't get a lot of crap.

[00:03:37] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I think I get a lot of crap, but it's like with love.

[00:03:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

[00:03:41] [SPEAKER_00]: It's with love.

[00:03:42] [SPEAKER_00]: All right.

[00:03:42] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if that's any better.

[00:03:44] [SPEAKER_06]: I didn't mean to start up.

[00:03:45] [SPEAKER_03]: One time you called me Trash Girl.

[00:03:47] [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.

[00:03:48] [SPEAKER_06]: Wait a minute.

[00:03:49] [SPEAKER_06]: All right.

[00:03:49] [SPEAKER_06]: All the things.

[00:03:50] [SPEAKER_04]: Trash Girl, take a step back.

[00:03:52] [SPEAKER_06]: All the things that have happened over the last two years that have mostly been Bran.

[00:03:57] [SPEAKER_06]: You picked that out?

[00:04:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Unbelievable.

[00:04:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:04:02] [SPEAKER_01]: All right.

[00:04:02] [SPEAKER_01]: What I'm saying is Aaron knows a lot about Taylor Swift, I'm sure.

[00:04:07] [SPEAKER_01]: But we needed someone to come who had seen the movie so we could understand the Taylor Swift reference in context, right?

[00:04:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Because it's not going to be me.

[00:04:15] [SPEAKER_01]: It's not going to be Bran.

[00:04:16] [SPEAKER_01]: No.

[00:04:16] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's not going to be Dan.

[00:04:18] [SPEAKER_01]: No.

[00:04:18] [SPEAKER_01]: So we had to have an expert.

[00:04:19] [SPEAKER_01]: What makes you an expert on all things Taylor Swift?

[00:04:22] [SPEAKER_06]: Give us your Swifty resume.

[00:04:24] [SPEAKER_02]: I love her, first of all.

[00:04:27] [SPEAKER_02]: That seems like a big one.

[00:04:28] [SPEAKER_02]: It's a big one, yeah.

[00:04:29] [SPEAKER_02]: I have dressed up as her three times for Halloween.

[00:04:33] [SPEAKER_06]: Sure.

[00:04:34] [SPEAKER_06]: What eras?

[00:04:36] [SPEAKER_02]: So first time it was the reputation era, Taylor Swift.

[00:04:39] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:04:40] [SPEAKER_02]: And then the second time.

[00:04:42] [SPEAKER_05]: The worst era, I think we can all agree.

[00:04:44] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:04:44] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, absolutely.

[00:04:46] [SPEAKER_02]: We're just choosing violence.

[00:04:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Nobody made her do that.

[00:04:48] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm sorry.

[00:04:49] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm sorry.

[00:04:50] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm sorry, everyone.

[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Then the red era.

[00:04:53] [SPEAKER_02]: Sure.

[00:04:54] [SPEAKER_02]: Of course.

[00:04:54] [SPEAKER_02]: And then this last one I did, a Midnight's era.

[00:04:59] [SPEAKER_06]: A Midnight's era.

[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_06]: Classic Midnight's.

[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_06]: You and I dressed up for the Midnight's era.

[00:05:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Which...

[00:05:04] [SPEAKER_01]: See, and you guys...

[00:05:04] [SPEAKER_01]: We couldn't have named all those eras.

[00:05:07] [SPEAKER_01]: No, we couldn't.

[00:05:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no, I couldn't have.

[00:05:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Between the three of them.

[00:05:09] [SPEAKER_02]: That was only some of them.

[00:05:10] [SPEAKER_06]: It's all been downhill for her since 1989.

[00:05:12] [SPEAKER_06]: That's been our time.

[00:05:13] [SPEAKER_06]: I agree with that.

[00:05:14] [SPEAKER_05]: But Rebecca, if you could only listen to one Taylor Swift album for the rest of your

[00:05:19] [SPEAKER_05]: life, which album would it be?

[00:05:20] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, it'd be Reputation.

[00:05:23] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:05:24] [SPEAKER_06]: Producer Aaron Shea is with you on that.

[00:05:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Actually, I don't think I am.

[00:05:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh, wow.

[00:05:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, you went like this.

[00:05:30] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[00:05:30] [SPEAKER_03]: I got really excited because I, like, every, like, sell in my life.

[00:05:34] [SPEAKER_03]: My Body Needs Reputation Taylor's version.

[00:05:36] [SPEAKER_03]: But until I get that, I do think I'm choosing Tortured Poets Department.

[00:05:40] [SPEAKER_07]: Wow.

[00:05:41] [SPEAKER_07]: Interesting.

[00:05:42] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[00:05:43] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.

[00:05:44] [SPEAKER_03]: I would have chosen Midnight's.

[00:05:46] [SPEAKER_03]: No.

[00:05:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't love Midnight's as much.

[00:05:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.

[00:05:49] [SPEAKER_03]: All right.

[00:05:49] [SPEAKER_06]: Well, this is tough.

[00:05:50] [SPEAKER_05]: I know.

[00:05:51] [SPEAKER_05]: Patrick, what about you?

[00:05:52] [SPEAKER_05]: Do you have a Taylor Swift album that you like?

[00:05:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

[00:05:56] [SPEAKER_01]: The 7-Eleven or maybe Target Christmas album, of course.

[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_05]: No, of course.

[00:06:02] [SPEAKER_05]: Classic.

[00:06:03] [SPEAKER_05]: Is that the most, is that what Christmas Tree Farm is on?

[00:06:07] [SPEAKER_05]: Or is that the one with Santa?

[00:06:09] [SPEAKER_05]: No, no, no.

[00:06:09] [SPEAKER_03]: Christmas Tree Farm is just a single.

[00:06:10] [SPEAKER_05]: So is that the one with, like, Santa Baby on it?

[00:06:12] [SPEAKER_05]: It just sucks.

[00:06:13] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:06:13] [SPEAKER_05]: I hate that.

[00:06:14] [SPEAKER_05]: I hate that.

[00:06:15] [SPEAKER_05]: I hate it.

[00:06:16] [SPEAKER_05]: I actively hate her rendition of Santa Baby and Silent Night.

[00:06:20] [SPEAKER_05]: Wow.

[00:06:21] [SPEAKER_05]: Wow.

[00:06:22] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm sorry.

[00:06:23] [SPEAKER_05]: Wow.

[00:06:24] [SPEAKER_05]: Okay.

[00:06:24] [SPEAKER_05]: I said what I said.

[00:06:25] [SPEAKER_06]: You can send your emails to Brian at deckthehallmark.com.

[00:06:28] [SPEAKER_06]: That's exactly right.

[00:06:29] [SPEAKER_06]: Right?

[00:06:29] [SPEAKER_05]: That's exactly right.

[00:06:31] [SPEAKER_05]: This was, what did you know going into this movie?

[00:06:34] [SPEAKER_05]: Were you aware that this was obviously this movie got a little bit of buzz because of the

[00:06:38] [SPEAKER_05]: correlation and the connection?

[00:06:40] [SPEAKER_05]: What did you know about it going into this, Rebecca?

[00:06:43] [SPEAKER_02]: About this movie.

[00:06:44] [SPEAKER_02]: So I did listen to y'all's preview episode.

[00:06:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, I'm sorry.

[00:06:48] [SPEAKER_06]: Thank you for that.

[00:06:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Yep.

[00:06:53] [SPEAKER_02]: I knew more about the Hallmark movie.

[00:06:56] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:06:56] [SPEAKER_02]: But this one, you know, very clearly about Taylor Swift, but never explicitly says so.

[00:07:03] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, they can't, right?

[00:07:04] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't think so.

[00:07:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Right, because they didn't.

[00:07:06] [SPEAKER_02]: That's a point.

[00:07:06] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, no.

[00:07:07] [SPEAKER_02]: No way a lifetime paid for the rights for this.

[00:07:10] [SPEAKER_02]: They didn't even say NFL.

[00:07:13] [SPEAKER_02]: Wow.

[00:07:13] [SPEAKER_02]: They didn't even pay the NFL for the rights, right?

[00:07:16] [SPEAKER_02]: Which I guess we'll get to that in a little bit.

[00:07:19] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah.

[00:07:21] [SPEAKER_02]: But I knew Popstar falls in love with a football player, and then I just watched from there.

[00:07:30] [SPEAKER_06]: All right.

[00:07:30] [SPEAKER_06]: I mean, kind of big.

[00:07:31] [SPEAKER_06]: So are there, I would assume, there's some pretty significantly obvious Taylor Swift Easter eggs in this film?

[00:07:39] [SPEAKER_06]: Yes or no?

[00:07:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.

[00:07:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.

[00:07:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:07:43] [SPEAKER_01]: If I got them, then they're obvious.

[00:07:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:07:45] [SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?

[00:07:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:07:45] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:07:46] [SPEAKER_06]: That's what I need to know.

[00:07:47] [SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, I just want to say, like, the Popstar falls in love with a football player is such an obvious plot.

[00:07:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, why has no one thought of this before?

[00:07:56] [SPEAKER_06]: It's so weird that it took it being so big in the cultural zeitgeist for people to be like, we should make a movie.

[00:08:03] [SPEAKER_06]: But it's like a trope, right?

[00:08:06] [SPEAKER_06]: That's something.

[00:08:07] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like a no-brainer.

[00:08:09] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like a, duh, this should totally be a thing.

[00:08:12] [SPEAKER_01]: But no, no one's ever thought of this before.

[00:08:14] [SPEAKER_01]: It's crazy to me.

[00:08:15] [SPEAKER_01]: It's weird.

[00:08:15] [SPEAKER_06]: I do feel like in these movies where there's a celebrity, sometimes it's an athlete on Hallmark or Lifetime, the other person has to be a behind-the-scenes person.

[00:08:25] [SPEAKER_06]: Like, they have to be like a personal assistant or they worked on the set or they're a reporter.

[00:08:32] [SPEAKER_06]: They're never these two.

[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_06]: The trope is never big star, big star, now two big stars.

[00:08:38] [SPEAKER_06]: They never do that.

[00:08:39] [SPEAKER_06]: And they probably should.

[00:08:41] [SPEAKER_06]: I think they should.

[00:08:41] [SPEAKER_06]: I think it makes a lot of sense.

[00:08:42] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm interested to hear how Lifetime did it, but I think in general, probably a good idea.

[00:08:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:08:48] [SPEAKER_02]: The Hallmark movie.

[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, sorry.

[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Go ahead, Patrick.

[00:08:51] [SPEAKER_01]: No.

[00:08:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, go ahead.

[00:08:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's talk about the Hallmark movie at the top because then we're going to dive into Lifetime.

[00:08:57] [SPEAKER_02]: Right.

[00:08:58] [SPEAKER_02]: The Hallmark movie did the star person behind the scenes.

[00:09:03] [SPEAKER_06]: Both actually are behind the scenes in it.

[00:09:06] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh.

[00:09:07] [SPEAKER_02]: But he's a CEO of the football or something like that, right?

[00:09:10] [SPEAKER_06]: We've seen it.

[00:09:11] [SPEAKER_06]: It's not out as of this recording.

[00:09:14] [SPEAKER_06]: It comes out tonight, yeah.

[00:09:15] [SPEAKER_06]: It comes out tonight.

[00:09:16] [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.

[00:09:16] [SPEAKER_06]: So we still can't really give our take on it.

[00:09:18] [SPEAKER_06]: Got it.

[00:09:19] [SPEAKER_06]: He works for the fan.

[00:09:23] [SPEAKER_06]: He's not the CEO, even.

[00:09:25] [SPEAKER_06]: He's the guy that works for fan engagement.

[00:09:28] [SPEAKER_06]: That's right.

[00:09:28] [SPEAKER_06]: But he's one of four project managers, which is the weirdest part of that movie, actually,

[00:09:34] [SPEAKER_06]: is that aspect of it.

[00:09:36] [SPEAKER_06]: So, yeah, neither of them are really famous, but they bring in plenty of cameos for what

[00:09:40] [SPEAKER_06]: that's worth.

[00:09:41] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:09:41] [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.

[00:09:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:09:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Of actual famous people because this movie has no famous people.

[00:09:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe Jeannie Mai.

[00:09:48] [SPEAKER_01]: You could say Jeannie Mai, who I love, but I don't know if she's famous.

[00:09:53] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think people know her.

[00:09:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know who that is.

[00:09:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Jeannie Mai was the agent.

[00:09:57] [SPEAKER_01]: She was on The Talk, I think, maybe, and she was on a, like, HGTV show or E.

[00:10:03] [SPEAKER_06]: The fact that you're the only one that knows who she is means not.

[00:10:06] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:10:06] [SPEAKER_06]: I think that'll probably.

[00:10:07] [SPEAKER_06]: No famous people.

[00:10:08] [SPEAKER_06]: Four out of five guests don't know who Jeannie Mai is.

[00:10:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Jeannie Mai is.

[00:10:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:10:12] [SPEAKER_01]: The movie also stars notable people like Jessica Lord and Laeth Walshling.

[00:10:25] [SPEAKER_01]: He should have changed his name.

[00:10:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Wow.

[00:10:29] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm just saying, look, this is a hard one.

[00:10:33] [SPEAKER_01]: What's the name of this movie?

[00:10:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Christmas in the Spotlight.

[00:10:36] [SPEAKER_05]: Laeth Walshlinger is what I would say.

[00:10:39] [SPEAKER_05]: Walshlinger.

[00:10:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Walshlinger.

[00:10:41] [SPEAKER_01]: You're right.

[00:10:42] [SPEAKER_01]: There we go.

[00:10:42] [SPEAKER_01]: It just doesn't roll off the tongue.

[00:10:44] [SPEAKER_05]: It is not as easy to pronounce as Jessica Lord.

[00:10:48] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:10:48] [SPEAKER_05]: Laeth Walshlinger.

[00:10:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:10:51] [SPEAKER_01]: All right.

[00:10:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I think he's going to be a big deal.

[00:10:53] [SPEAKER_01]: I've never seen any of these two people before.

[00:10:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Either.

[00:10:57] [SPEAKER_01]: No.

[00:10:57] [SPEAKER_06]: I've never seen either of these two.

[00:10:59] [SPEAKER_06]: What did I say?

[00:11:00] [SPEAKER_06]: I've never seen any of these two people.

[00:11:01] [SPEAKER_06]: I've never seen any of them.

[00:11:02] [SPEAKER_05]: You've seen any part of them.

[00:11:03] [SPEAKER_05]: Never seen any of them.

[00:11:05] [SPEAKER_05]: Okay.

[00:11:06] [SPEAKER_05]: Are either of these two leads, Jessica Lord or Laeth, do they have a lifetime experience

[00:11:10] [SPEAKER_05]: or no?

[00:11:12] [SPEAKER_01]: No.

[00:11:12] [SPEAKER_01]: This is their first lifetime movie.

[00:11:14] [SPEAKER_01]: So it was great.

[00:11:14] [SPEAKER_05]: It cost $8 to make.

[00:11:16] [SPEAKER_05]: Like nothing.

[00:11:16] [SPEAKER_05]: Well, Discount Tire.

[00:11:18] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:11:18] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:11:18] [SPEAKER_05]: Pretty much paid the budget on this bad boy.

[00:11:20] [SPEAKER_05]: This movie is sponsored by Discount Tire.

[00:11:23] [SPEAKER_05]: And that's all you need to really know about this movie.

[00:11:26] [SPEAKER_05]: Big Discount Tire fans.

[00:11:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Also, there's no characters from this movie may have based on...

[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_01]: There's no disclaimer.

[00:11:34] [SPEAKER_06]: Nothing.

[00:11:35] [SPEAKER_06]: No.

[00:11:35] [SPEAKER_06]: It's just a standalone movie.

[00:11:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

[00:11:40] [SPEAKER_01]: And I was reading a thing about the writer and how she came up with the idea.

[00:11:43] [SPEAKER_01]: And no mention of I based the son of Taylor and whatever.

[00:11:49] [SPEAKER_05]: It just so happens they finally picked my script up.

[00:11:51] [SPEAKER_05]: It came to me in a dream.

[00:11:52] [SPEAKER_05]: I've been pitching this movie for years.

[00:11:55] [SPEAKER_05]: Trust me.

[00:11:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

[00:11:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:11:57] [SPEAKER_01]: So let's jump in.

[00:11:58] [SPEAKER_01]: The movie starts with a video shoot.

[00:12:00] [SPEAKER_01]: We're on set.

[00:12:02] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's a bop Christmas pop song.

[00:12:04] [SPEAKER_01]: It's called I'll Be Alone for Christmas.

[00:12:07] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's female empowerment.

[00:12:08] [SPEAKER_01]: It is with lyrics like, I'm the star on my own tree.

[00:12:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Merry Christmas to me.

[00:12:15] [SPEAKER_01]: The pop star's name is Bowen Sykes.

[00:12:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Not Bowen Yang, which I kept writing Bowen Yang.

[00:12:25] [SPEAKER_05]: What if Bowen Yang was in this movie, though?

[00:12:27] [SPEAKER_05]: Would have been great.

[00:12:28] [SPEAKER_06]: There's no way it could have been worse.

[00:12:29] [SPEAKER_06]: We love Bowen.

[00:12:30] [SPEAKER_06]: And I don't know anything about this movie, but Bowen Yang makes everything better.

[00:12:33] [SPEAKER_06]: Come on.

[00:12:34] [SPEAKER_05]: I like the song for what that's...

[00:12:36] [SPEAKER_05]: I think we hear two different songs in this movie, and I like both of them.

[00:12:40] [SPEAKER_05]: We do.

[00:12:40] [SPEAKER_05]: For what that's worth.

[00:12:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:12:42] [SPEAKER_01]: They're both very Swifty-ish.

[00:12:44] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:12:44] [SPEAKER_05]: Rebecca, would you say...

[00:12:46] [SPEAKER_05]: Like, I could hear a little Swift inspiration.

[00:12:48] [SPEAKER_05]: I don't know.

[00:12:48] [SPEAKER_05]: Maybe a little bit.

[00:12:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Sure.

[00:12:51] [SPEAKER_05]: Uh-oh.

[00:12:51] [SPEAKER_02]: Like, discount tire version of Taylor Swift.

[00:12:54] [SPEAKER_05]: Discount tire version.

[00:12:56] [SPEAKER_05]: Fair.

[00:12:56] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:12:56] [SPEAKER_05]: Absolutely.

[00:12:57] [SPEAKER_02]: For a movie about a musician, the songs were not very good.

[00:13:01] [SPEAKER_06]: There it is.

[00:13:02] [SPEAKER_06]: This is the take that I need.

[00:13:04] [SPEAKER_06]: Well, they were catchy.

[00:13:05] [SPEAKER_06]: You two knuckleheads.

[00:13:05] [SPEAKER_06]: I enjoyed it.

[00:13:06] [SPEAKER_05]: I was like, this is nice.

[00:13:08] [SPEAKER_01]: I thought they were great.

[00:13:08] [SPEAKER_06]: For a lifetime budget.

[00:13:10] [SPEAKER_06]: I like Rebecca a lot.

[00:13:11] [SPEAKER_06]: I just want to know.

[00:13:12] [SPEAKER_05]: I have heard a lot of songs in made-for-TV movies, and this is as catchy as they come.

[00:13:18] [SPEAKER_05]: What?

[00:13:19] [SPEAKER_05]: They are, like, made for the movie.

[00:13:20] [SPEAKER_05]: Okay.

[00:13:21] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:13:21] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:13:23] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:13:23] [SPEAKER_05]: I don't know.

[00:13:23] [SPEAKER_02]: We didn't have to watch the children sing.

[00:13:25] [SPEAKER_01]: That's true.

[00:13:26] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:13:27] [SPEAKER_01]: No children singing.

[00:13:28] [SPEAKER_01]: They implied children singing, but we didn't actually have to hear it.

[00:13:30] [SPEAKER_05]: We didn't have to watch it.

[00:13:32] [SPEAKER_05]: That's the best type of kids singing.

[00:13:34] [SPEAKER_05]: We love that.

[00:13:35] [SPEAKER_05]: Just implied.

[00:13:36] [SPEAKER_01]: So Bowen Sykes is a world-renowned pop star, but she wants something more.

[00:13:41] [SPEAKER_01]: She doesn't have, like, you know, she's getting bored with the whole pop star thing.

[00:13:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Her manager, Jeannie Mai, who we'll call Myra in this movie, she only speaks, only speaks

[00:13:53] [SPEAKER_01]: in Taylor Swift lyrics.

[00:13:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay?

[00:13:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, she...

[00:13:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Let me give you an example.

[00:13:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:14:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Dan.

[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Dan.

[00:14:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Why are you being so mean?

[00:14:05] [SPEAKER_01]: You don't like my jacket?

[00:14:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I have a bad reputation for wearing jackets all the time.

[00:14:13] [SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, you might want to take a picture, because that picture is a picture to burn.

[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_06]: You know what I'm saying?

[00:14:21] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know about you, but...

[00:14:24] [SPEAKER_05]: I gotta be honest.

[00:14:26] [SPEAKER_05]: I didn't pick up on any of this.

[00:14:28] [SPEAKER_05]: Okay.

[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Let me keep going.

[00:14:31] [SPEAKER_01]: I got this teen jacket when I was 15.

[00:14:33] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm 15.

[00:14:34] [SPEAKER_01]: But now I'm 22.

[00:14:37] [SPEAKER_01]: And...

[00:14:37] [SPEAKER_01]: She did not say that.

[00:14:39] [SPEAKER_05]: I do remember the jacket.

[00:14:41] [SPEAKER_05]: She did.

[00:14:41] [SPEAKER_05]: She said, I had it since I was 15, and now I'm 22?

[00:14:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, no.

[00:14:45] [SPEAKER_01]: She said she was 15.

[00:14:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I do remember that.

[00:14:48] [SPEAKER_05]: You get the idea.

[00:14:49] [SPEAKER_05]: What's so funny is that I didn't even pick up, but I heard her say, I've had it since

[00:14:52] [SPEAKER_05]: I was 15, and I was like, okay.

[00:14:54] [SPEAKER_00]: All right.

[00:14:55] [SPEAKER_00]: This is a weird addition to this movie.

[00:14:59] [SPEAKER_01]: It happens over and over.

[00:15:01] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:15:02] [SPEAKER_02]: I did write down all of the song lyric references.

[00:15:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh.

[00:15:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, my gosh.

[00:15:05] [SPEAKER_02]: How many you got?

[00:15:07] [SPEAKER_02]: One, two, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15, 15,

[00:15:15] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, my gosh.

[00:15:16] [SPEAKER_02]: And then I checked my work with an Entertainment Weekly, like, listicle.

[00:15:23] [SPEAKER_02]: Of course.

[00:15:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Of course.

[00:15:25] [SPEAKER_02]: And they did not have 17.

[00:15:27] [SPEAKER_02]: I had much fewer, so I feel like they should have hired me to do something.

[00:15:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:15:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Hire the Taylor Swift.

[00:15:36] [SPEAKER_06]: That's like one every five minutes, guys.

[00:15:38] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, yeah.

[00:15:39] [SPEAKER_06]: That is a Taylor Swift lyric reference every five minutes of movie time.

[00:15:44] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, my goodness.

[00:15:45] [SPEAKER_02]: They left some very obvious ones on the table.

[00:15:50] [SPEAKER_05]: Can you get, like, I literally didn't pick up on any.

[00:15:53] [SPEAKER_05]: Can you just give me a couple of them?

[00:15:54] [SPEAKER_06]: Look what you made me do, or, like, I got a blank space, or, like.

[00:15:57] [SPEAKER_06]: Sure.

[00:15:58] [SPEAKER_06]: Okay, great.

[00:15:59] [SPEAKER_02]: Well, she did when they agreed that they, when she agreed that she was going to go out with

[00:16:07] [SPEAKER_02]: the football player, she said, let the games begin, which is from, are you ready for it?

[00:16:13] [SPEAKER_02]: Right at the beginning.

[00:16:16] [SPEAKER_02]: And then there was the title of the alchemy, when they, the reporters are talking about

[00:16:25] [SPEAKER_02]: how you can't deny the alchemy between these two people.

[00:16:27] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, my God.

[00:16:27] [SPEAKER_02]: Which I don't think is how you're supposed to use the word alchemy, but we're going to

[00:16:31] [SPEAKER_02]: let it slide.

[00:16:34] [SPEAKER_02]: And then, yeah, the why you gotta be so mean.

[00:16:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Right.

[00:16:39] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah.

[00:16:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Wow.

[00:16:40] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:16:41] Man.

[00:16:42] [SPEAKER_01]: There's, I'm telling you, most of them are given to Jeannie Mai to work into her.

[00:16:48] [SPEAKER_06]: This writer not admitting that it has anything to do with Taylor Swift.

[00:16:51] [SPEAKER_06]: She wrote it a long time ago.

[00:16:53] [SPEAKER_05]: If anything, Taylor took it from her.

[00:16:55] [SPEAKER_06]: Literally, listen to Shaggy.

[00:16:56] [SPEAKER_06]: It wasn't me.

[00:16:57] [SPEAKER_06]: It wasn't me.

[00:16:58] [SPEAKER_06]: It was like, I'm not, I'm just going to stick by it.

[00:17:00] [SPEAKER_06]: This has nothing to do with him.

[00:17:01] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know what you're talking about.

[00:17:03] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:17:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

[00:17:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:17:05] [SPEAKER_01]: So we cut to the football field and more importantly, the locker room.

[00:17:10] [SPEAKER_01]: We see, we like get right to the locker room.

[00:17:13] [SPEAKER_01]: I was like, whoa, I wasn't expecting this.

[00:17:15] [SPEAKER_01]: The football player's name is Drew Gonzo Gonville.

[00:17:19] [SPEAKER_01]: He's shirtless.

[00:17:20] [SPEAKER_01]: He's like talking about not getting signed.

[00:17:22] [SPEAKER_01]: His brother is the more famous quarterback named Rob.

[00:17:25] [SPEAKER_01]: He even has a brother?

[00:17:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

[00:17:27] [SPEAKER_01]: He has a brother.

[00:17:28] [SPEAKER_05]: But in this movie, they play on the same team.

[00:17:30] [SPEAKER_05]: Okay.

[00:17:31] [SPEAKER_05]: His brother's a quarterback.

[00:17:32] [SPEAKER_05]: So it can't be the Kilsies.

[00:17:33] [SPEAKER_01]: It's definitely not the Kilsies.

[00:17:35] [SPEAKER_05]: Very different.

[00:17:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Very different.

[00:17:37] [SPEAKER_01]: And see, this is where also I'm in a bit of a blind spot.

[00:17:40] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, I don't know anything about the football side of this.

[00:17:44] [SPEAKER_01]: So Rob throws his, Rob and his wife, Nicole, who only wears high heels.

[00:17:52] [SPEAKER_01]: I just thought it was weird that she's like the mom of the movie, but she's walking around the house in full high heels.

[00:17:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Like stilettos.

[00:17:59] [SPEAKER_02]: And it looks like she's never actually walked in them a day in her life.

[00:18:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Uh-oh.

[00:18:02] [SPEAKER_01]: True.

[00:18:03] [SPEAKER_01]: True.

[00:18:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, you know.

[00:18:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:18:06] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it takes a lot of practice.

[00:18:08] [SPEAKER_01]: You got to put in the work early.

[00:18:10] [SPEAKER_01]: You got to start when you're.

[00:18:11] [SPEAKER_02]: Can I slide in another Taylor Swift reference here?

[00:18:16] [SPEAKER_02]: Sure.

[00:18:17] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.

[00:18:17] [SPEAKER_02]: Please.

[00:18:17] [SPEAKER_02]: His name is Drew, which is the infamous reason for the teardrops on her guitar.

[00:18:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:18:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:18:25] [SPEAKER_02]: We were talking about that.

[00:18:26] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:18:26] [SPEAKER_02]: Before I.

[00:18:27] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:18:27] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:18:28] [SPEAKER_02]: And his number is 13, which is her favorite number as well.

[00:18:33] [SPEAKER_05]: Wow.

[00:18:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Which is very well known among the Swifties.

[00:18:37] [SPEAKER_06]: When you said that you brought a Taylor Swift expert, Patrick, I didn't for the life of me think we were.

[00:18:44] [SPEAKER_06]: This is.

[00:18:44] [SPEAKER_06]: We should be paying Rebecca for this kind of work.

[00:18:47] [SPEAKER_06]: I.

[00:18:47] [SPEAKER_06]: This is great.

[00:18:48] [SPEAKER_06]: This is great stuff.

[00:18:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Look, I do.

[00:18:52] [SPEAKER_01]: I knew I was going to miss it all.

[00:18:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I know when you say Taylor Swift's favorite number is 13.

[00:18:57] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, I have heard that.

[00:18:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:18:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I've heard that.

[00:18:59] [SPEAKER_01]: I knew that.

[00:19:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Just like I knew Britney Spears is from.

[00:19:05] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know where she's from.

[00:19:06] [SPEAKER_01]: I can't remember.

[00:19:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Come again.

[00:19:09] [SPEAKER_06]: What is that noise?

[00:19:11] [SPEAKER_06]: A rocket ship landing in the background?

[00:19:14] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know what that is.

[00:19:15] [SPEAKER_06]: Somebody who was going to give away Britney Spears' hometown.

[00:19:18] [SPEAKER_06]: And some aliens showed up like, not on my watch.

[00:19:21] [SPEAKER_06]: Whoa.

[00:19:23] [SPEAKER_05]: Okay.

[00:19:24] [SPEAKER_05]: You're about to say where she's from?

[00:19:26] [SPEAKER_05]: Don't say it.

[00:19:27] [SPEAKER_05]: No.

[00:19:27] [SPEAKER_05]: She's from Waka Waka La Hala.

[00:19:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Or Waka Waka.

[00:19:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:19:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Everybody knows.

[00:19:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Great.

[00:19:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, see, I'm just saying.

[00:19:33] [SPEAKER_01]: That's why we have Rebecca.

[00:19:34] [SPEAKER_01]: So.

[00:19:35] [SPEAKER_01]: We're in the locker room.

[00:19:37] [SPEAKER_01]: We're in the locker room.

[00:19:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Now we're having a birthday party for the niece.

[00:19:41] [SPEAKER_01]: The niece loves Bowen.

[00:19:44] [SPEAKER_01]: She has a Bowen themed party.

[00:19:46] [SPEAKER_01]: She does a little dance.

[00:19:47] [SPEAKER_01]: It's really cute.

[00:19:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Kid's not an annoying kid.

[00:19:49] [SPEAKER_01]: The kid's like a normal kid.

[00:19:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe slightly child actor-y, but not terrible.

[00:19:58] [SPEAKER_01]: We got some traffic going on.

[00:20:00] [SPEAKER_05]: It's a traffic situation.

[00:20:01] [SPEAKER_05]: Are we being raptured?

[00:20:02] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:20:03] [SPEAKER_05]: It's a traffic jam.

[00:20:04] [SPEAKER_06]: Is the rapture real and I missed it?

[00:20:07] [SPEAKER_05]: Yes.

[00:20:08] [SPEAKER_05]: But.

[00:20:09] [SPEAKER_05]: Okay.

[00:20:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Go ahead.

[00:20:13] [SPEAKER_01]: For her birthday, Drew gets his niece a concert to the whatever.

[00:20:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Concert tickets.

[00:20:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Concert.

[00:20:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:20:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Kids make concerts.

[00:20:23] [SPEAKER_05]: Kids are concerts.

[00:20:24] [SPEAKER_04]: Kids concert tickets.

[00:20:25] [SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.

[00:20:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

[00:20:27] [SPEAKER_01]: And they talk about, like, they talk about Bowen as a celebrity, right?

[00:20:31] [SPEAKER_01]: They drop a lot of Taylor stuff here, too.

[00:20:34] [SPEAKER_02]: This is where the mom says, oh, she's gone full Arrowhead.

[00:20:39] [SPEAKER_02]: Because much like Taylor Swift has the Swifties, Bowen has the Arrows.

[00:20:45] [SPEAKER_02]: That's what they call themselves, the fan base.

[00:20:48] [SPEAKER_02]: Because, you know, Bowen Arrows.

[00:20:51] [SPEAKER_06]: Yes.

[00:20:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Bowen Arrows.

[00:20:53] [SPEAKER_02]: And Arrowhead is also the name of the stadium where the Chiefs play.

[00:20:57] [SPEAKER_06]: It should have been renamed decades ago.

[00:20:59] [SPEAKER_06]: That's crazy.

[00:20:59] [SPEAKER_06]: But, yes, it is called Arrowhead.

[00:21:01] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean.

[00:21:03] [SPEAKER_02]: That seems like a different podcast.

[00:21:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:21:06] [SPEAKER_02]: Fair.

[00:21:06] [SPEAKER_02]: But.

[00:21:06] [SPEAKER_02]: All right.

[00:21:07] [SPEAKER_05]: We brought in the expert to talk about that.

[00:21:10] [SPEAKER_05]: Come on in.

[00:21:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, there we go.

[00:21:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:21:13] [SPEAKER_01]: So, the niece and Drew go to the concert.

[00:21:17] [SPEAKER_01]: He's, like, recording the concert with his flash on for some reason.

[00:21:22] [SPEAKER_01]: They sneak backstage.

[00:21:23] [SPEAKER_01]: And they get to meet Bowen.

[00:21:25] [SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, I'm a bomber.

[00:21:28] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, what?

[00:21:32] [SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, I know.

[00:21:33] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't have a bomb.

[00:21:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Is this real?

[00:21:37] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, you have a bomb?

[00:21:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:21:38] [SPEAKER_01]: This is real.

[00:21:40] [SPEAKER_01]: That's the name of the team.

[00:21:41] [SPEAKER_01]: The team's name is, like, the Bomber.

[00:21:43] [SPEAKER_01]: The Bomber?

[00:21:44] [SPEAKER_01]: The Bomber.

[00:21:45] [SPEAKER_05]: And he walks up to her and says, I'm a bomber.

[00:21:50] [SPEAKER_06]: And then he says, I don't have a bomb.

[00:21:53] [SPEAKER_06]: This seems like a mistake you would make.

[00:21:55] [SPEAKER_06]: It was the best.

[00:21:56] [SPEAKER_06]: It made me laugh.

[00:21:57] [SPEAKER_06]: It made me.

[00:21:57] [SPEAKER_01]: It was so, like, he's so awkward.

[00:22:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know, he's this big football star.

[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_01]: But, like, he is, like, such a little, like, goober.

[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_01]: You know?

[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_01]: It was adorable.

[00:22:09] [SPEAKER_01]: It was very cute.

[00:22:09] [SPEAKER_01]: We loved it.

[00:22:10] [SPEAKER_01]: He's a bomber.

[00:22:13] [SPEAKER_01]: And they take pictures or whatever.

[00:22:15] [SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, life moves on.

[00:22:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, and then niece is, like.

[00:22:19] [SPEAKER_05]: I was just going to say, he tries to take a, he takes a picture of his niece with Bowen.

[00:22:25] [SPEAKER_05]: And then he's like, can I take a picture with you?

[00:22:28] [SPEAKER_05]: He asks for consent to put his arm around her, which she really liked.

[00:22:32] [SPEAKER_05]: And then before he, like, right as he goes to take the selfie, her manager calls her.

[00:22:37] [SPEAKER_05]: So she, like, looks away.

[00:22:38] [SPEAKER_05]: So he doesn't actually have a good picture of the two of them together.

[00:22:42] [SPEAKER_05]: But he's going to post it anyway.

[00:22:46] [SPEAKER_05]: Got it.

[00:22:47] [SPEAKER_05]: Okay.

[00:22:48] [SPEAKER_05]: So, um.

[00:22:49] [SPEAKER_06]: Patrick could not have been more.

[00:22:52] [SPEAKER_06]: You saw it, right, Patrick?

[00:22:53] [SPEAKER_06]: Completely, like, uncaring about your dropout.

[00:22:56] [SPEAKER_06]: It was stupid.

[00:22:57] [SPEAKER_06]: It was a stupid dropout.

[00:22:58] [SPEAKER_06]: Got it.

[00:22:58] [SPEAKER_06]: Thanks, Brian.

[00:22:59] [SPEAKER_06]: It was a stupid dropout.

[00:23:00] [SPEAKER_06]: Back to what I've prepared.

[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_01]: I just want to say one more thing about this interaction.

[00:23:06] [SPEAKER_01]: The niece, um, is, like, drags him.

[00:23:10] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, you're so weird, Uncle Drew.

[00:23:13] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm never going to have cousins.

[00:23:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Because you're never going to, like, get married and find a woman.

[00:23:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:23:18] [SPEAKER_02]: The kid is harsh in this one.

[00:23:20] [SPEAKER_02]: She's very mean.

[00:23:20] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:23:21] [SPEAKER_01]: She's very mean.

[00:23:22] [SPEAKER_02]: She is quippy.

[00:23:23] [SPEAKER_02]: She's mean.

[00:23:24] [SPEAKER_05]: And everybody knows Taylor Swift has a niece who's also really mean.

[00:23:28] [SPEAKER_05]: It's a tie-in.

[00:23:30] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:23:30] [SPEAKER_05]: There's a whole mean niece album that she made.

[00:23:34] [SPEAKER_05]: It's not true.

[00:23:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, if the experts didn't say it, it's not true.

[00:23:38] [SPEAKER_06]: My mean niece, Janie, is not an album?

[00:23:40] [SPEAKER_06]: I didn't know that.

[00:23:42] [SPEAKER_01]: It's coming out next year.

[00:23:44] [SPEAKER_01]: She's going to drop it.

[00:23:45] [SPEAKER_06]: That's Taylor's next album.

[00:23:45] [SPEAKER_06]: Without announcing it.

[00:23:46] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that's right.

[00:23:47] [SPEAKER_06]: It's going to be good.

[00:23:47] [SPEAKER_06]: Twelve songs.

[00:23:48] [SPEAKER_06]: Eight minutes long each.

[00:23:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Even though the picture's very bad.

[00:23:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Even though the picture's not great.

[00:23:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Drew can't stop thinking about Bowen.

[00:23:54] [SPEAKER_01]: He posts on social media.

[00:23:55] [SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, hey, come to a game sometime.

[00:23:57] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, he's just, like, putting it out there, like, in the world.

[00:24:00] [SPEAKER_01]: And Jeannie Mai sees it.

[00:24:01] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, oh, my gosh.

[00:24:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, you have to date this guy.

[00:24:05] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm the football person.

[00:24:07] [SPEAKER_01]: I love football.

[00:24:08] [SPEAKER_01]: She starts talking about all his stats and all the football things that I don't understand.

[00:24:12] [SPEAKER_01]: And neither does Bowen, by the way.

[00:24:15] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:24:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Bowen's like, I don't know anything about football.

[00:24:17] [SPEAKER_01]: They're drinking wine the whole time.

[00:24:19] [SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot of wine drinking in this movie.

[00:24:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Meta ad.

[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_01]: But since Jeannie Mai is the agent, she's like, you could get more fans.

[00:24:30] [SPEAKER_01]: You could get the Super Bowl halftime show.

[00:24:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:24:34] [SPEAKER_07]: Think about it.

[00:24:35] [SPEAKER_07]: Big game.

[00:24:36] [SPEAKER_01]: The big game.

[00:24:37] [SPEAKER_01]: The big game.

[00:24:37] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, you can't say Super Bowl.

[00:24:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:24:39] [SPEAKER_01]: They didn't say.

[00:24:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Taylor Swift has never done the Super Bowl halftime, right?

[00:24:44] No.

[00:24:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, well, she's so sure.

[00:24:47] [SPEAKER_06]: Like, very famously turned it down.

[00:24:50] [SPEAKER_06]: Right?

[00:24:51] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:24:51] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, okay.

[00:24:52] [SPEAKER_02]: And, yeah.

[00:24:54] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, go ahead.

[00:24:55] [SPEAKER_06]: Erin?

[00:24:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Well, for years, she couldn't because it was sponsored by Pepsi.

[00:24:59] [SPEAKER_03]: And she has a Coke sponsorship.

[00:25:00] [SPEAKER_03]: So, for years, she couldn't.

[00:25:02] [SPEAKER_03]: It's no longer sponsored by Pepsi.

[00:25:04] [SPEAKER_03]: She could, but she doesn't need to.

[00:25:06] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:25:06] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:25:07] [SPEAKER_06]: I was more recently, though.

[00:25:08] [SPEAKER_06]: There's always rumors.

[00:25:09] [SPEAKER_06]: And she always is like, she doesn't.

[00:25:10] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know if they've offered or not, I guess.

[00:25:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Who's doing the halftime show this year?

[00:25:15] [SPEAKER_06]: Kendrick Lamar.

[00:25:16] [SPEAKER_01]: So, yeah.

[00:25:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Ah, okay.

[00:25:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I think we're all winning there.

[00:25:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Sorry.

[00:25:20] [SPEAKER_01]: I've heard of her.

[00:25:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_01]: I've heard of her.

[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_04]: Great.

[00:25:25] [SPEAKER_05]: Sponsored by Discount Tire, though, now, which is a huge gift.

[00:25:29] [SPEAKER_05]: Huge gift.

[00:25:29] [SPEAKER_06]: Super Bowl halftime show sponsored by Discount Tire.

[00:25:31] [SPEAKER_06]: Wow.

[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_06]: Everyone's getting a discount.

[00:25:33] [SPEAKER_06]: Big.

[00:25:34] [SPEAKER_06]: Everybody.

[00:25:35] [SPEAKER_01]: They do get in touch.

[00:25:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Bowen and Jeannie Mai reach out and set up a date.

[00:25:40] [SPEAKER_01]: But they don't, like, give him, like, any more info.

[00:25:42] [SPEAKER_01]: They just reach out on social media.

[00:25:43] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like how I do most of my business dealings.

[00:25:46] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, I reach out on social media.

[00:25:48] [SPEAKER_01]: And I don't actually, like, exchange numbers.

[00:25:50] [SPEAKER_01]: And we just DM on Instagram.

[00:25:52] [SPEAKER_01]: That's how Rebecca got on the show.

[00:25:54] [SPEAKER_02]: Right.

[00:25:54] [SPEAKER_02]: That's actually kind of true.

[00:25:57] [SPEAKER_02]: The message that she sends, though, is, like, if you see an unknown number,

[00:26:01] [SPEAKER_02]: like, make sure you pick up.

[00:26:04] [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.

[00:26:05] [SPEAKER_02]: But he gave her his number and then was just like, I guess I will answer every call that comes in.

[00:26:12] [SPEAKER_05]: Which he gets a lot of unknown number calls for the next three days.

[00:26:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Lots of spam calls.

[00:26:19] [SPEAKER_01]: And he's answering them all.

[00:26:21] [SPEAKER_01]: His niece is literally playing tea with him, like a tea party.

[00:26:25] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, I can tell you're stressed out here.

[00:26:28] [SPEAKER_01]: And she gives him, like, the little teapot.

[00:26:30] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, spill the tea.

[00:26:32] [SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, wow, this child.

[00:26:34] [SPEAKER_01]: This child is sassy.

[00:26:36] [SPEAKER_01]: She's sassy.

[00:26:36] [SPEAKER_01]: And then the phone rings.

[00:26:39] [SPEAKER_01]: She answers the phone.

[00:26:39] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's Bowen.

[00:26:40] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, he died.

[00:26:43] [SPEAKER_02]: Right.

[00:26:43] [SPEAKER_02]: This is where she says, I'm sorry.

[00:26:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Uncle Gonzo can't come to the phone right now.

[00:26:50] [SPEAKER_06]: Because she's dead.

[00:26:51] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:26:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Yep.

[00:26:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Which is another look what you made me do lyric.

[00:26:57] [SPEAKER_05]: I was just like, man, this little girl's ruthless.

[00:27:00] [SPEAKER_05]: That's brutal.

[00:27:01] [SPEAKER_06]: I would have caught that one.

[00:27:02] [SPEAKER_06]: I would have caught that one, I feel like.

[00:27:04] [SPEAKER_05]: I think if I was, now that I know, I'm sure I would pick up on some of it.

[00:27:08] [SPEAKER_05]: I just wasn't even thinking to look for.

[00:27:10] [SPEAKER_05]: Which is my fault.

[00:27:11] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm a dummy.

[00:27:13] [SPEAKER_05]: Look what you made me do.

[00:27:14] [SPEAKER_01]: No.

[00:27:14] [SPEAKER_05]: No, you're not.

[00:27:16] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:27:17] [SPEAKER_01]: So they set up a little dinner date, a post-practice dinner date.

[00:27:21] [SPEAKER_01]: And Bowen sends a car.

[00:27:23] [SPEAKER_01]: And the car has a bag.

[00:27:25] [SPEAKER_01]: And in the bag is a disguise for Drew to wear.

[00:27:29] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a Santa costume.

[00:27:30] [SPEAKER_01]: So when he, you know, leaves the car, no one will see it's him.

[00:27:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Since they're like high profile secret romance.

[00:27:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And he's taken to an airplane hangar, which we all know about Taylor's airplane carbon emissions.

[00:27:45] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:27:46] [SPEAKER_06]: Unlike other planes, her planes emit carbon.

[00:27:50] [SPEAKER_06]: Carbon.

[00:27:50] [SPEAKER_06]: That's right.

[00:27:51] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:27:51] [SPEAKER_06]: I can't believe she chose.

[00:27:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Her planes notoriously.

[00:27:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:27:53] [SPEAKER_06]: She chose a plane that was bad for the environment.

[00:27:56] [SPEAKER_06]: There's so many planes out there she could have chosen.

[00:27:59] [SPEAKER_06]: It's like she doesn't care.

[00:28:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know about Taylor Swift, but I know she has a bad carbon footprint.

[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_01]: That's okay.

[00:28:06] [SPEAKER_05]: That's what we know.

[00:28:07] [SPEAKER_05]: You said it.

[00:28:09] [SPEAKER_05]: Speaking of bad carbon footprints, let's take a break.

[00:28:12] [SPEAKER_05]: Here on Deck the Homebar.

[00:28:23] [SPEAKER_05]: Back to the Discount Tire podcast.

[00:28:26] [SPEAKER_05]: We're talking about Philo, actually.

[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_05]: It's not presented.

[00:28:30] [SPEAKER_06]: It's just philo.tv.dth.

[00:28:32] [SPEAKER_06]: That's exactly right.

[00:28:33] [SPEAKER_06]: Not Discount Tire.

[00:28:34] [SPEAKER_05]: And you can watch the movie on Philo and find out that the movie is indeed sponsored by Discount Tire.

[00:28:38] [SPEAKER_05]: And you can watch us there as well.

[00:28:39] [SPEAKER_05]: Yes, you can.

[00:28:40] [SPEAKER_05]: Yep.

[00:28:41] [SPEAKER_05]: Patrick, he just got to the airport hangar.

[00:28:45] [SPEAKER_05]: They're about to have their first date.

[00:28:47] [SPEAKER_05]: It's going to be terrible for the environment.

[00:28:49] [SPEAKER_05]: On the private jet.

[00:28:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, they don't fly anywhere.

[00:28:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, interesting.

[00:28:53] [SPEAKER_01]: So I think maybe Bowen doesn't really fly the plane.

[00:28:56] [SPEAKER_01]: It's just for fun.

[00:28:57] [SPEAKER_01]: It's just like her little club.

[00:28:59] [SPEAKER_01]: And they have dinner, have some wine.

[00:29:03] [SPEAKER_01]: They watch a movie on an iPad.

[00:29:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Where he says, I feel like I'm in a movie.

[00:29:10] [SPEAKER_02]: Which Taylor does have a song called If We Were a Movie.

[00:29:14] [SPEAKER_02]: That was originally written for Hannah Montana.

[00:29:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, well, I love Hannah.

[00:29:20] [SPEAKER_00]: There you have it.

[00:29:20] [SPEAKER_00]: I love Hannah Montana.

[00:29:22] [SPEAKER_00]: It's the best of both worlds.

[00:29:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Why don't we lead with the Hannah Montana references?

[00:29:29] [SPEAKER_01]: So they talk about things.

[00:29:33] [SPEAKER_01]: And we learned that she wasn't really close to her parents.

[00:29:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Like her mom was like a gypsy level stage mom.

[00:29:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Sure.

[00:29:43] [SPEAKER_01]: You know?

[00:29:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Things are not good in that relationship.

[00:29:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Like Bowen is estranged from her whole family.

[00:29:49] [SPEAKER_01]: And her dad died.

[00:29:50] [SPEAKER_01]: And this is very much not in line with Taylor Swift's life.

[00:29:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Taylor Swift has like very supportive parents.

[00:29:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Even I know that.

[00:30:00] [SPEAKER_01]: And the writer's like, see?

[00:30:02] [SPEAKER_05]: It's very different people.

[00:30:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Very different people.

[00:30:06] [SPEAKER_01]: You just got to cover the bases.

[00:30:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:30:08] [SPEAKER_01]: She's lost the joy for performing.

[00:30:10] [SPEAKER_01]: She doesn't like, you know, she's like wanting more fun in her life.

[00:30:14] [SPEAKER_01]: And Drew's like, I promise I will bring fun into your life.

[00:30:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm a fun guy.

[00:30:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I will take you on a second date and we are going to have fun.

[00:30:20] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:30:21] [SPEAKER_01]: And he says, but he does the Mandy Moore thing.

[00:30:25] [SPEAKER_01]: He does the Mandy Moore thing.

[00:30:26] [SPEAKER_01]: And I want to remember.

[00:30:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I want to remember.

[00:30:28] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:30:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Don't fall in love with me.

[00:30:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Or, you know, and then I'll get leukemia and die.

[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_05]: And everyone knows, I want to remember Taylor Swift's favorite movie.

[00:30:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Yep.

[00:30:38] [SPEAKER_05]: Okay.

[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_05]: Rebecca, what were you going to say?

[00:30:40] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm trying.

[00:30:40] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm trying to.

[00:30:42] [SPEAKER_02]: It better not be.

[00:30:42] [SPEAKER_02]: No, they even do a.

[00:30:44] [SPEAKER_06]: Go ahead.

[00:30:44] [SPEAKER_02]: They even do a pinky promise about it.

[00:30:47] [SPEAKER_02]: That comes up.

[00:30:49] [SPEAKER_06]: Pinky promise.

[00:30:50] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:30:50] [SPEAKER_06]: I would hope that Walker's remember is not anyone's favorite movie.

[00:30:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh boy.

[00:30:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, it's someone's.

[00:30:57] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm sorry.

[00:30:58] [SPEAKER_01]: It's not mine.

[00:30:59] [SPEAKER_01]: It's not mine.

[00:31:00] [SPEAKER_01]: But I have seen it a lot.

[00:31:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Anyways.

[00:31:05] [SPEAKER_01]: We get our Jake Gyllenhaal character introduced in this little random scene.

[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Jake Gyllenhaal character.

[00:31:14] [SPEAKER_02]: He's like a.

[00:31:15] [SPEAKER_02]: He's like a mix between a Jake Gyllenhaal and a Joe Alwyn.

[00:31:19] Oh.

[00:31:19] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:31:20] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_02]: Looks more like Jake Gyllenhaal.

[00:31:23] [SPEAKER_02]: That.

[00:31:23] [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.

[00:31:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Reputation.

[00:31:25] [SPEAKER_02]: More like Joe Alwyn.

[00:31:26] [SPEAKER_06]: Uh-huh.

[00:31:27] [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.

[00:31:27] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:31:28] [SPEAKER_06]: You got that right.

[00:31:29] [SPEAKER_01]: I tracked that.

[00:31:29] [SPEAKER_06]: Those are the vibes.

[00:31:30] [SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was a great reference.

[00:31:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Great.

[00:31:33] [SPEAKER_01]: For Bran.

[00:31:34] [SPEAKER_01]: For Bran.

[00:31:34] [SPEAKER_01]: The character's name is Hudson Peters.

[00:31:36] [SPEAKER_01]: He's the ex-boyfriend actor who wants Taylor.

[00:31:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Or Taylor.

[00:31:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Who wants Bowen.

[00:31:41] [SPEAKER_01]: I see.

[00:31:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Now I'm getting all confused.

[00:31:42] [SPEAKER_01]: He wants Bowen to go on a red carpet with him for publicity.

[00:31:46] [SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, you couldn't possibly be dating anybody else because you're unlovable and you're terrible and everyone hates you.

[00:31:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Wow.

[00:31:55] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, he's just like, he's like nagging her.

[00:31:58] [SPEAKER_01]: And then Jeannie Mai's like, you need to drop dead and you're the worst.

[00:32:01] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm not joking.

[00:32:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I actually hate you.

[00:32:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Get out of my face.

[00:32:04] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:32:05] [SPEAKER_01]: He is the worst.

[00:32:06] [SPEAKER_01]: To be fair.

[00:32:07] [SPEAKER_01]: He is the worst.

[00:32:10] [SPEAKER_01]: But Drew, the relationship's still going on.

[00:32:13] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a big secret, though.

[00:32:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Huge secret.

[00:32:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Drew asks Bowen if he can tell his mom.

[00:32:18] [SPEAKER_01]: And she says, that's okay.

[00:32:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, you can tell your mom as long as she keeps it a secret.

[00:32:23] [SPEAKER_01]: So he asks his mom for the secret family lasagna recipe.

[00:32:27] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's really cute because the brother walks in on them like talking.

[00:32:31] [SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, what secret are you guys talking about?

[00:32:34] [SPEAKER_01]: And the mom's like a notorious, terrible liar.

[00:32:36] [SPEAKER_01]: So she's like, kind of like me thinking of Britney Spears' hometown.

[00:32:42] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, McGillicuddy.

[00:32:43] [SPEAKER_06]: Right.

[00:32:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Walla, walla, walla.

[00:32:47] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, oh, the lasagna recipe.

[00:32:50] [SPEAKER_01]: He wants me to give it to him, but I'm not going to.

[00:32:52] [SPEAKER_01]: But she does.

[00:32:53] [SPEAKER_01]: And it impresses Bowen.

[00:32:54] [SPEAKER_01]: She's like, this has got to be so good.

[00:32:57] [SPEAKER_01]: I love that you're close to your family.

[00:33:00] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, they just have like, they like admire each other.

[00:33:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, she likes his family reputation.

[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_01]: And he likes like her hustle, her work flow.

[00:33:08] [SPEAKER_05]: So she's going to come to his family's cabin.

[00:33:12] [SPEAKER_05]: And he's going to make lasagna.

[00:33:13] [SPEAKER_05]: And it's going to be a whole thing.

[00:33:14] [SPEAKER_05]: She kind of like comes out of the woods in a big jacket and a, I don't know, a mask.

[00:33:21] [SPEAKER_05]: And I don't know where she came from.

[00:33:23] [SPEAKER_05]: What?

[00:33:24] [SPEAKER_02]: She comes in full sunglasses, black, like black jacket, hood up, scarf, and like a ski mask.

[00:33:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:33:32] [SPEAKER_05]: I don't know where she came from.

[00:33:34] [SPEAKER_05]: She said she parked, got dropped off and came through the woods is what she says.

[00:33:38] [SPEAKER_05]: Right?

[00:33:40] [SPEAKER_01]: It could be a walk through the woods, you might say.

[00:33:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Is that a Taylor Swift song?

[00:33:45] [SPEAKER_01]: She came out of the woods.

[00:33:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Could be a walk to remember.

[00:33:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, there you go.

[00:33:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.

[00:33:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.

[00:33:50] [SPEAKER_00]: Into the woods.

[00:33:51] [SPEAKER_05]: Is that why she said it?

[00:33:53] [SPEAKER_05]: Out of the woods?

[00:33:54] [SPEAKER_05]: Probably.

[00:33:54] [SPEAKER_05]: Did you write that down?

[00:33:56] [SPEAKER_02]: I didn't write that one down.

[00:33:58] [SPEAKER_02]: We're up to 18.

[00:33:59] [SPEAKER_02]: We're up to 18.

[00:34:00] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:34:01] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to write it down right now.

[00:34:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Write that down.

[00:34:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Send it to EW.

[00:34:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Like she loves puzzles.

[00:34:13] [SPEAKER_01]: That helps her de-stress.

[00:34:16] [SPEAKER_01]: And who knew a puzzle could be so sexy?

[00:34:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Like they're like, you know, having really steamy chemistry.

[00:34:21] [SPEAKER_01]: They sexify the heck out of this puzzle.

[00:34:24] [SPEAKER_01]: They're like, it is sexified.

[00:34:26] [SPEAKER_01]: It is.

[00:34:27] [SPEAKER_04]: They're like doing a thing and he's like, it's going to go here.

[00:34:30] [SPEAKER_04]: And then a puzzle here.

[00:34:33] [SPEAKER_04]: And it's like, all right.

[00:34:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh.

[00:34:35] [SPEAKER_06]: We're doing puzzles wrong this whole time.

[00:34:37] [SPEAKER_06]: Reenacting what happens when we do puzzles.

[00:34:38] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm sorry.

[00:34:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:34:50] [SPEAKER_02]: To distract him.

[00:34:51] [SPEAKER_02]: Because apparently they're racing to do the puzzle.

[00:34:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:34:54] [SPEAKER_05]: It's a race.

[00:34:55] [SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot of contests in these TV movies.

[00:34:57] [SPEAKER_01]: That was good.

[00:34:58] [SPEAKER_05]: They then go into the kitchen because they're going to try some pie.

[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_05]: And.

[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_05]: The pie.

[00:35:35] [SPEAKER_01]: She doesn't.

[00:35:36] [SPEAKER_01]: And then she proceeds.

[00:35:36] [SPEAKER_01]: She proceeds to touch like one, two, three, four.

[00:35:49] [SPEAKER_05]: You can do whatever you want to with them.

[00:35:52] [SPEAKER_05]: I don't know.

[00:35:52] [SPEAKER_05]: Something like that.

[00:35:53] [SPEAKER_05]: To his abs.

[00:35:54] [SPEAKER_05]: To his abs.

[00:35:55] [SPEAKER_05]: To his abs, yes.

[00:35:56] [SPEAKER_05]: And we'll stop there.

[00:35:56] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:35:57] [SPEAKER_06]: That's it.

[00:35:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, that is where it stops because the rest of the football team shows up at the cabin.

[00:36:03] [SPEAKER_01]: They're all throwing out.

[00:36:05] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:36:05] [SPEAKER_01]: They're like, they're like honking their horn outside.

[00:36:14] [SPEAKER_06]: Just a couple.

[00:36:15] [SPEAKER_06]: His brother.

[00:36:15] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know how many is on a football team, but it seemed like the whole team to me.

[00:36:20] [SPEAKER_06]: There's more than four.

[00:36:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:36:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Five.

[00:36:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:36:23] [SPEAKER_02]: There were like four of them.

[00:36:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

[00:36:28] [SPEAKER_02]: Got it.

[00:36:28] [SPEAKER_02]: Not even a whole side.

[00:36:30] [SPEAKER_01]: No.

[00:36:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no.

[00:36:30] [SPEAKER_01]: The foot, the, the kicker, the quarterback and the wide receiver.

[00:36:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Look at you.

[00:36:36] [SPEAKER_01]: And then the bench, the bench, the man on the bench.

[00:36:40] [SPEAKER_06]: Running back?

[00:36:41] [SPEAKER_06]: What position?

[00:36:42] [SPEAKER_06]: What position does Travis Kelsey play?

[00:36:45] [SPEAKER_06]: Tight end.

[00:36:46] [SPEAKER_06]: I know you knew that.

[00:36:47] [SPEAKER_06]: I was asking Patrick.

[00:36:49] [SPEAKER_00]: I would have never known.

[00:36:50] [SPEAKER_06]: But Aaron's here for trivia today.

[00:36:52] [SPEAKER_06]: Did you think Dan didn't know?

[00:36:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.

[00:36:54] [SPEAKER_06]: What in the world, guys?

[00:36:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I zoned out for a minute and then I heard a trivia question and I responded.

[00:37:04] [SPEAKER_05]: In her defense.

[00:37:05] [SPEAKER_05]: Aaron loves trivia.

[00:37:07] [SPEAKER_05]: Her trivia plays Bowen.

[00:37:07] [SPEAKER_05]: Give me another one.

[00:37:08] [SPEAKER_05]: It goes down.

[00:37:08] [SPEAKER_05]: She's having a tough time.

[00:37:10] [SPEAKER_05]: She's trying to find her new trivia plays.

[00:37:11] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know any more football references.

[00:37:15] [SPEAKER_01]: But Drew is like, Bowen, you have to hide.

[00:37:18] [SPEAKER_01]: She goes and runs and hides.

[00:37:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Outside.

[00:37:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:37:21] [SPEAKER_01]: She's freezing.

[00:37:23] [SPEAKER_01]: She's like jumping up and down.

[00:37:24] [SPEAKER_01]: His brother's giving him a hard time.

[00:37:27] [SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, he's making up lies.

[00:37:29] [SPEAKER_01]: He goes out.

[00:37:30] [SPEAKER_01]: He talks to Bowen.

[00:37:31] [SPEAKER_01]: He's like, look, I don't know if I want to keep lying to everybody.

[00:37:35] [SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't feel good to lie to my family and lie to, like, the world.

[00:37:40] [SPEAKER_01]: So.

[00:37:42] [SPEAKER_01]: What's up with the popo?

[00:37:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, sorry.

[00:37:46] [SPEAKER_03]: That's me.

[00:37:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Look, if you couldn't tell, Rebecca lives in D.C.

[00:37:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Rebecca lives in D.C.

[00:37:53] [SPEAKER_02]: In, yeah.

[00:37:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Right in there.

[00:37:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Right in the D.C.

[00:37:57] [SPEAKER_01]: So there's a lot happening, you know.

[00:37:59] [SPEAKER_06]: No, it's fine.

[00:38:01] [SPEAKER_01]: But Bowen's like, if you are, I'm not ready to go public with you.

[00:38:05] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not ready to be in a public relationship with anybody.

[00:38:07] [SPEAKER_01]: It's been, like, so traumatic, like my past relationships that I don't want to put myself through that or you through that.

[00:38:13] [SPEAKER_01]: And they decided, like, take a break.

[00:38:15] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:38:16] [SPEAKER_05]: Can't do it.

[00:38:17] [SPEAKER_05]: Can't do it.

[00:38:18] [SPEAKER_05]: And I know I said that I could, but I can't.

[00:38:21] [SPEAKER_05]: And so that's, you know, admirable.

[00:38:23] [SPEAKER_05]: Admirable.

[00:38:24] [SPEAKER_05]: Just being an adult.

[00:38:25] [SPEAKER_02]: Because they're starting to like each other too much.

[00:38:27] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:38:28] [SPEAKER_05]: Right.

[00:38:28] [SPEAKER_05]: And they pinky promised.

[00:38:29] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:38:30] [SPEAKER_01]: They did.

[00:38:32] [SPEAKER_01]: So Jeannie Mai talks Bowen through the breakup, giving her a pep talk in Taylor Swift lyrics.

[00:38:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, it's only, exclusively.

[00:38:42] [SPEAKER_01]: It finally becomes Thanksgiving.

[00:38:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, you have something, Rebecca?

[00:38:46] [SPEAKER_02]: Well, we missed, so one of the football players comes out and catches them.

[00:38:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, right.

[00:38:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:38:52] [SPEAKER_02]: And then, uh, right, this is right before they have the will, will we, won't we conversation.

[00:38:59] [SPEAKER_02]: And he's like, well, can I tell my girlfriend Cassandra, which is another Taylor Swift song.

[00:39:06] [SPEAKER_02]: Cassandra?

[00:39:07] [SPEAKER_02]: Cassandra is the name of a Taylor Swift song.

[00:39:10] [SPEAKER_02]: Wow.

[00:39:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Is there a Taylor Swift song called Patrick?

[00:39:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, I don't, I don't think so, Patrick.

[00:39:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm so sorry.

[00:39:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm just checking.

[00:39:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I just, you know, I didn't know Cassandra had one, so maybe I had one.

[00:39:22] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll write you one, Patrick.

[00:39:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, thank you.

[00:39:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, Marcus has one?

[00:39:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:39:30] Mm-hmm.

[00:39:30] [SPEAKER_02]: There's a Hey, Steven, yeah.

[00:39:32] [SPEAKER_02]: Hey, Steven.

[00:39:33] [SPEAKER_05]: Hey, Steven.

[00:39:34] [SPEAKER_05]: What's up?

[00:39:34] [SPEAKER_05]: How are you doing?

[00:39:35] [SPEAKER_05]: Hey, Steven.

[00:39:37] [SPEAKER_05]: I would listen to this song.

[00:39:38] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:39:39] [SPEAKER_05]: You're in for a bruising.

[00:39:40] [SPEAKER_05]: Hey, Steven.

[00:39:41] [SPEAKER_05]: A bruising?

[00:39:42] [SPEAKER_05]: What in the world is this song about?

[00:39:44] [SPEAKER_05]: No, you, you, you have to listen to all things.

[00:39:45] [SPEAKER_05]: All right.

[00:39:46] [SPEAKER_05]: The bridge is tough.

[00:39:46] [SPEAKER_01]: So after, after the, the lovely speech about, from Taylor Swift lyrics that we just did,

[00:39:52] [SPEAKER_01]: basically we reenacted, uh, Jeannie, my speech there.

[00:39:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, Steven.

[00:39:56] [SPEAKER_07]: Hey, Steven.

[00:40:23] [SPEAKER_02]: Mm-hmm.

[00:40:26] [SPEAKER_02]: Kind of like the ESPN.

[00:40:28] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:40:28] [SPEAKER_02]: Sports center desk or whatever that, I don't watch ESPN either, but that kind of, um, like

[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_02]: talk show.

[00:40:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:40:37] [SPEAKER_01]: They're really talking it up though.

[00:40:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Talking it up.

[00:40:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:40:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:40:41] [SPEAKER_01]: And, um, the family like loves Bowen, of course, they invite her to join them for Thanksgiving

[00:40:50] [SPEAKER_01]: on Black Friday.

[00:40:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Mm-hmm.

[00:40:52] [SPEAKER_01]: So they go public and the, um, rumors are swirling about, um, Bowen using Drew to gain

[00:41:00] [SPEAKER_01]: new fans from the NFL or maybe they say the NBL or another abbreviation of some kind.

[00:41:08] [SPEAKER_05]: Like, like, Balm Town, Balm Town, USA, et cetera.

[00:41:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Balm Town, USA?

[00:41:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:41:13] [SPEAKER_01]: That's what they call it.

[00:41:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Expand the audience.

[00:41:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Expand the audience.

[00:41:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, but, but Bowen's like, I don't care.

[00:41:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, um, I'm going to just live my life.

[00:41:21] [SPEAKER_01]: She takes Drew to like all these fancy events and he like just eats all the hors d'oeuvres.

[00:41:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Like, like that's really, he's there to like hold a purse and eat hors d'oeuvres.

[00:41:31] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:41:31] [SPEAKER_05]: And there's one fancy event where Hudson Peters kind of corners her and does this whole, like,

[00:41:38] [SPEAKER_05]: I know what's going on here.

[00:41:40] [SPEAKER_05]: And she like sarcastically is like, oh, you know me.

[00:41:45] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm only dating him for publicity.

[00:41:47] [SPEAKER_05]: It's what I need, blah, blah, blah, uh, type of thing.

[00:41:51] [SPEAKER_05]: And I'm thinking, oh.

[00:41:52] [SPEAKER_05]: He's a big, a big dumb jock.

[00:41:54] [SPEAKER_05]: Yes.

[00:41:54] [SPEAKER_05]: So I'm thinking he's overhearing all of this because I've seen.

[00:41:58] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:41:58] [SPEAKER_05]: You've seen a few of these movies.

[00:41:59] [SPEAKER_05]: You've seen a lot of them.

[00:42:00] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:42:00] [SPEAKER_05]: But that's not exactly what happens with this conversation.

[00:42:05] [SPEAKER_05]: Although it does lead ultimately to a misunderstanding, but that's not what happens.

[00:42:09] [SPEAKER_05]: But we'll get there.

[00:42:09] [SPEAKER_02]: There are also so many Taylor Swift references in this particular scene.

[00:42:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.

[00:42:16] [SPEAKER_02]: So they walk in and he says, you're the best thing at this party, which is from a Taylor Swift song called You're Losing Me.

[00:42:24] [SPEAKER_02]: Wow.

[00:42:25] [SPEAKER_02]: And then when the ex-boyfriend comes up, she says that he thinks he's Wonderland because there's the, he calls her the Alice to his Mad Hatter.

[00:42:37] [SPEAKER_02]: And there's a Taylor Swift song called Wonderland.

[00:42:40] [SPEAKER_02]: Wow.

[00:42:42] [SPEAKER_02]: Wow.

[00:42:43] [SPEAKER_06]: Man, we're really, we're doing it.

[00:42:44] [SPEAKER_05]: And to think, I just thought I watched a movie.

[00:42:46] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:42:47] [SPEAKER_05]: I'm learning so much.

[00:42:48] [SPEAKER_06]: Can I tell you why I'm going to end up, and I don't want to spoil it, I'm going to end up putting a cork in this movie.

[00:42:52] [SPEAKER_06]: Is because I would have been somewhere in between your viewing experience and Rebecca's viewing experience, which is I'm catching a few of these.

[00:43:00] [SPEAKER_06]: I know there's a lot more, and it would just be a big eye roll for me because I don't, I'm not a fan enough to really dig in and get in the weeds.

[00:43:09] [SPEAKER_06]: But I wasn't watching it like you and just didn't notice any of them.

[00:43:13] [SPEAKER_06]: Like I would have been somewhere in between, and I would have been like, I know this movie is trying to play on two levels without getting the permission to play on any, and it would drive me nuts.

[00:43:21] [SPEAKER_06]: Sorry.

[00:43:21] [SPEAKER_06]: Go ahead.

[00:43:23] [SPEAKER_02]: There's also, there's a deep cut here that I don't know if they meant to do, but his last name is Peters, and she says Grow Up, Peter, which is, or Peters, which is the name of another song.

[00:43:35] [SPEAKER_02]: And there's a lot of, Taylor Swift has a lot of, like, Peter Pan and Wendy.

[00:43:40] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, interesting.

[00:43:42] [SPEAKER_02]: Imagery in several of her songs.

[00:43:44] [SPEAKER_02]: And so that was, that's, I thought she said Grow Up, Peter, but Grow Up, Peters.

[00:43:50] [SPEAKER_02]: Interesting.

[00:43:51] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.

[00:43:52] [SPEAKER_02]: Well, all right.

[00:43:52] [SPEAKER_02]: That may have been on accident.

[00:43:54] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:43:54] [SPEAKER_05]: But.

[00:43:55] [SPEAKER_05]: Well, I don't think, the screenwriter clearly didn't mean to do any of these.

[00:43:58] [SPEAKER_05]: The screenwriter, this is all just an absolute misunderstanding.

[00:44:02] [SPEAKER_06]: This movie's been in the hopper for a decade.

[00:44:04] [SPEAKER_06]: There's nothing, there's no way.

[00:44:06] [SPEAKER_02]: Definitely not about Taylor Swift.

[00:44:08] [SPEAKER_02]: No.

[00:44:08] [SPEAKER_06]: No, you're reading into it.

[00:44:10] [SPEAKER_02]: This is also the point where they left, because we are never getting back together, would be two on the nose, right?

[00:44:18] [SPEAKER_02]: Of course.

[00:44:18] [SPEAKER_02]: So they just, she never says that, even though, perfect opportunity.

[00:44:22] [SPEAKER_06]: I know.

[00:44:23] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:44:23] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, that's the kind of movie I thought we were going to get, is that movie.

[00:44:26] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:44:27] [SPEAKER_06]: Right.

[00:44:27] [SPEAKER_06]: Deep cuts only.

[00:44:28] [SPEAKER_05]: We can't get in trouble for this.

[00:44:29] [SPEAKER_06]: We can't get in trouble for it.

[00:44:30] [SPEAKER_06]: It was just an accident.

[00:44:31] [SPEAKER_06]: Like, you know, Grow Up, Peters.

[00:44:33] [SPEAKER_06]: Like, you don't know if that's a thing or not.

[00:44:35] [SPEAKER_06]: We don't know.

[00:44:37] [SPEAKER_01]: So they have this conversation.

[00:44:39] [SPEAKER_01]: They do.

[00:44:39] [SPEAKER_01]: They do.

[00:44:40] [SPEAKER_01]: And, um, like she leaves with Drew and tells him he's the best boyfriend ever.

[00:44:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Cause he's like a little, like feeling like a fish out of water.

[00:44:48] [SPEAKER_01]: He's not feeling great.

[00:44:49] [SPEAKER_01]: And they kiss and it's like very romantic.

[00:44:52] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like super romantic.

[00:44:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, and then Drew gets a call from his, um, agent and he is getting, um, like a offer to go to the LA football team.

[00:45:04] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:45:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Big money.

[00:45:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Unnamed.

[00:45:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Big money.

[00:45:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Uh, double the salary.

[00:45:10] [SPEAKER_01]: What?

[00:45:11] [SPEAKER_01]: He's so excited.

[00:45:12] [SPEAKER_01]: It's the LA knife fight.

[00:45:13] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

[00:45:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:45:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Something.

[00:45:16] [SPEAKER_01]: They don't say.

[00:45:16] [SPEAKER_01]: All the team names are very violent.

[00:45:19] [SPEAKER_05]: Right?

[00:45:21] [SPEAKER_01]: But Bowen doesn't seem so happy about it.

[00:45:24] [SPEAKER_01]: She seems like she wants to stay in town with his family.

[00:45:27] [SPEAKER_01]: And like, she like seems to be not excited about him going to LA because he would be changing.

[00:45:32] [SPEAKER_01]: He would be changing too much.

[00:45:34] [SPEAKER_06]: She doesn't want to move.

[00:45:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

[00:45:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Got it.

[00:45:36] [SPEAKER_01]: No.

[00:45:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Jeannie Mai says, you know, all too well.

[00:45:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, I caught that.

[00:45:42] [SPEAKER_01]: I caught that one.

[00:45:43] [SPEAKER_01]: We are.

[00:45:43] [SPEAKER_01]: She said that all too well.

[00:45:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, but she gives the advice more Taylor Swift lyrics.

[00:45:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure are in that.

[00:45:50] [SPEAKER_01]: But basically she comes around and she's like, you know, okay, well, if he wants to move to LA, that's a good thing.

[00:45:55] [SPEAKER_01]: He wants to be with me.

[00:45:56] [SPEAKER_01]: That's a good thing.

[00:45:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, the suddenly brand.

[00:46:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Brand, tell me if this came out of nowhere.

[00:46:03] [SPEAKER_01]: I was watching a dollop of Daisy commercial and then all of a sudden the brothers are fighting.

[00:46:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Been there.

[00:46:10] [SPEAKER_05]: But yes, I do feel like the brother fight did come out of nowhere.

[00:46:14] [SPEAKER_05]: He tells his brother about this offer and his brother gets really mad.

[00:46:18] [SPEAKER_05]: And he kind of talks about, um, you know, how he just kind of wants to.

[00:46:23] [SPEAKER_05]: He doesn't talk.

[00:46:24] [SPEAKER_01]: He doesn't talk.

[00:46:25] [SPEAKER_01]: He yells.

[00:46:26] [SPEAKER_01]: He screams.

[00:46:27] [SPEAKER_01]: He says, he says, I'm tired of living in your shadow.

[00:46:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, and I, and I said, living in your shadow.

[00:46:32] [SPEAKER_01]: That's an Ashley Simpson.

[00:46:34] [SPEAKER_06]: Oh, let's go.

[00:46:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Someone else.

[00:46:38] [SPEAKER_01]: What are we doing?

[00:46:40] [SPEAKER_06]: Mandy Moore and Ashley Simpson also getting shot.

[00:46:42] [SPEAKER_06]: This episode.

[00:46:43] [SPEAKER_06]: Can't get in trouble for this.

[00:46:44] [SPEAKER_06]: That's right.

[00:46:45] [SPEAKER_06]: Can't get in trouble.

[00:46:45] [SPEAKER_05]: Right.

[00:46:46] [SPEAKER_05]: But he did.

[00:46:46] [SPEAKER_05]: He got, it was a boisterous conversation.

[00:46:50] [SPEAKER_05]: It was, which is wild.

[00:46:50] [SPEAKER_06]: Cause a brother that played football would never be mad at his other brother for leaving to take more money to play football.

[00:46:56] [SPEAKER_06]: That happens all the time.

[00:46:58] [SPEAKER_02]: It would never.

[00:46:58] [SPEAKER_02]: That's what I wrote down.

[00:47:00] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, perfect.

[00:47:01] [SPEAKER_02]: I was like, I was like, why, why would the football brother not, or why would they act like he doesn't understand the business?

[00:47:06] [SPEAKER_06]: If anyone would understand it, it would be him.

[00:47:08] [SPEAKER_06]: Like that would be number one on the list of people that would give, cut you some slack and be like, this is the right thing to do.

[00:47:14] [SPEAKER_06]: For sure.

[00:47:15] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:47:15] [SPEAKER_06]: It's ridiculous.

[00:47:15] [SPEAKER_05]: I also felt like there was some of this, like, maybe he even said it, but like, you're only getting this deal because of Bowen, like some of that type of thing.

[00:47:25] [SPEAKER_05]: And he's like, I can do this myself.

[00:47:27] [SPEAKER_05]: Like I'm a good, I'm a good.

[00:47:27] [SPEAKER_06]: I can do it with a broken heart.

[00:47:28] [SPEAKER_06]: That's what I've said for years.

[00:47:37] [SPEAKER_01]: I can do it, bud.

[00:47:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:47:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Your own thing.

[00:48:00] [SPEAKER_01]: So you should just think, take a minute, think about what you want to do and then do that because it's not fair.

[00:48:05] [SPEAKER_01]: You shouldn't be just doing whatever your brother does or whatever your brother says.

[00:48:09] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:48:09] [SPEAKER_01]: It was a good, it was a good talk.

[00:48:11] [SPEAKER_01]: It was a good talk.

[00:48:11] [SPEAKER_06]: Good talk.

[00:48:12] [SPEAKER_06]: Good talk.

[00:48:12] [SPEAKER_06]: Good talk.

[00:48:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:48:14] [SPEAKER_01]: It was like a Mike Brady level.

[00:48:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, wow.

[00:48:17] [SPEAKER_06]: Sage advice.

[00:48:18] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:48:18] [SPEAKER_06]: Mike Brady.

[00:48:19] [SPEAKER_06]: Loving wisdom.

[00:48:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Sage advice.

[00:48:20] [SPEAKER_06]: All right.

[00:48:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

[00:48:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Hudson Peters, our Jake Gyllenhaal stand in, leaks the conversation to the press.

[00:48:30] [SPEAKER_05]: Apparently he's Mike, like they're recording some sort of documentary or something.

[00:48:35] [SPEAKER_02]: And there was a lady following him with a camera phone and a ring light.

[00:48:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Ring light.

[00:48:41] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:48:42] [SPEAKER_02]: And that's all you need.

[00:48:43] [SPEAKER_01]: A plugged in ring light, like with an extension cord.

[00:48:47] [SPEAKER_05]: And so he has the audio of her saying the thing sarcastically and just makes that part of the conversation.

[00:48:55] [SPEAKER_05]: So a different take on the misunderstanding for what it's worth, you know.

[00:49:02] [SPEAKER_01]: And Drew is upset.

[00:49:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Like he thinks it's real.

[00:49:05] [SPEAKER_01]: A lot of bad press comes and this is where like the press gets negative and they're like, she's never going to have a boyfriend.

[00:49:11] [SPEAKER_01]: She's talking about people like that.

[00:49:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, and the, but very quickly, the Hudson Peters assistant quits and releases the whole clip and says, look, this was a, we were trying to manipulate the media.

[00:49:26] [SPEAKER_01]: instead of three years later.

[00:49:29] [SPEAKER_05]: Release the Hudson

[00:49:30] [SPEAKER_05]: Peters assistants, Kai.

[00:49:32] [SPEAKER_05]: And they did, to their credit.

[00:49:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, good.

[00:49:36] [SPEAKER_01]: So Bowen deals with the breakup

[00:49:37] [SPEAKER_01]: the only way she knows how. She writes a song.

[00:49:40] [SPEAKER_01]: She strums on a guitar

[00:49:42] [SPEAKER_01]: clumsily and

[00:49:44] [SPEAKER_01]: sings some lyrics about love being a

[00:49:46] [SPEAKER_01]: game. That's right.

[00:49:47] [SPEAKER_01]: A football game, if you will.

[00:49:49] [SPEAKER_01]: If you will.

[00:49:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Fran, I know you play guitar.

[00:49:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Was she really playing guitar in this movie?

[00:49:55] [SPEAKER_01]: I couldn't tell.

[00:49:55] [SPEAKER_05]: Interesting. Thanks for bringing it up.

[00:49:57] [SPEAKER_05]: Great question, Patrick.

[00:49:58] [SPEAKER_05]: At the gala, where she plays

[00:50:01] [SPEAKER_05]: the whole song,

[00:50:02] [SPEAKER_05]: she is playing real chords.

[00:50:06] [SPEAKER_05]: I thought so.

[00:50:07] [SPEAKER_05]: But the chords don't match

[00:50:08] [SPEAKER_05]: what's being played, which is interesting.

[00:50:10] [SPEAKER_05]: So she clearly knows

[00:50:12] [SPEAKER_05]: how to play guitar, but she wasn't

[00:50:15] [SPEAKER_05]: the one responsible for writing that song.

[00:50:17] [SPEAKER_01]: This hand looks like

[00:50:19] [SPEAKER_01]: it's doing things.

[00:50:20] [SPEAKER_01]: She's changing chords.

[00:50:22] [SPEAKER_01]: The other one, I was like, I don't know if the strums are

[00:50:24] [SPEAKER_01]: going with the strumming.

[00:50:26] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah, I think

[00:50:27] [SPEAKER_06]: but also

[00:50:28] [SPEAKER_06]: those are technical terms for you listeners at home.

[00:50:30] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't know if the strums are going with the strumming.

[00:50:32] [SPEAKER_05]: She was just changing chords

[00:50:34] [SPEAKER_05]: and that's

[00:50:36] [SPEAKER_05]: more than what most people do.

[00:50:37] [SPEAKER_05]: So good there.

[00:50:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Right.

[00:50:41] [SPEAKER_01]: And while we're on this

[00:50:42] [SPEAKER_01]: little Christmas gala performance,

[00:50:44] [SPEAKER_01]: the song that she performs

[00:50:46] [SPEAKER_01]: is the song she writes for Drew

[00:50:48] [SPEAKER_01]: and it's very Michelle Branch-y.

[00:50:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:50:52] [SPEAKER_01]: It's very Michelle Branch-y.

[00:50:54] [SPEAKER_01]: The guitar.

[00:50:55] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I can see that.

[00:50:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was very the same like

[00:50:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Did you notice

[00:51:02] [SPEAKER_05]: that sounded like the Goo Goo Dolls.

[00:51:04] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:51:04] [SPEAKER_05]: Did you notice

[00:51:08] [SPEAKER_05]: how there was one Christmas tree behind her

[00:51:10] [SPEAKER_05]: that was potentially the brightest Christmas tree

[00:51:13] [SPEAKER_05]: I've ever seen?

[00:51:14] [SPEAKER_05]: That tree was so bright.

[00:51:16] [SPEAKER_05]: Something was about to catch on fire.

[00:51:17] [SPEAKER_05]: I was like, you got to look at this.

[00:51:18] [SPEAKER_05]: He showed me a still.

[00:51:19] [SPEAKER_05]: It was unbelievable.

[00:51:20] [SPEAKER_05]: All the other trees are normal

[00:51:22] [SPEAKER_05]: and then there's just one that's like

[00:51:23] [SPEAKER_05]: brah!

[00:51:24] [SPEAKER_01]: It was a lot.

[00:51:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:51:25] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's aspirational, right?

[00:51:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:51:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I think so.

[00:51:28] [SPEAKER_05]: That's that discount tire money.

[00:51:29] [SPEAKER_05]: Can't hide it.

[00:51:29] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:51:29] [SPEAKER_05]: You can't.

[00:51:30] [SPEAKER_05]: There's something you can do.

[00:51:31] [SPEAKER_01]: There you go.

[00:51:33] [SPEAKER_01]: So the Christmas gala is, of course,

[00:51:35] [SPEAKER_01]: for the football team.

[00:51:36] [SPEAKER_01]: It brings everyone back together.

[00:51:37] [SPEAKER_01]: But before this performance,

[00:51:39] [SPEAKER_01]: we get a little scene

[00:51:40] [SPEAKER_01]: where the niece gives Drew a bracelet

[00:51:44] [SPEAKER_01]: and it's the Taylor Swift friendship bracelet.

[00:51:47] [SPEAKER_01]: We all have them for Bramble Fest.

[00:51:48] [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.

[00:51:50] [SPEAKER_01]: So that's another nod that I caught

[00:51:52] [SPEAKER_01]: that I was like, oh, the bracelet.

[00:51:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:51:54] [SPEAKER_02]: I made one for a hockey player.

[00:51:57] [SPEAKER_02]: Haven't been able to give it to him yet.

[00:51:58] [SPEAKER_02]: You know, we all make bracelets.

[00:52:00] [SPEAKER_06]: Well, be careful.

[00:52:01] [SPEAKER_06]: He'll fall in love with you.

[00:52:01] [SPEAKER_06]: What's the hockey player?

[00:52:02] [SPEAKER_06]: Can we shout him out?

[00:52:03] [SPEAKER_06]: Can we try to get some?

[00:52:04] [SPEAKER_02]: A girl can dream.

[00:52:05] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:52:05] [SPEAKER_02]: You know, his name is Jacob Vrana.

[00:52:08] [SPEAKER_02]: He plays for the Washington Capitals.

[00:52:10] [SPEAKER_06]: Okay.

[00:52:10] [SPEAKER_06]: Jacob Vrana, if you're listening,

[00:52:12] [SPEAKER_06]: if you're listening,

[00:52:12] [SPEAKER_06]: you're a big DTH fan.

[00:52:13] [SPEAKER_06]: Come on.

[00:52:14] [SPEAKER_06]: You know.

[00:52:14] [SPEAKER_06]: Try to get a friendship bracelet to you, bro.

[00:52:16] [SPEAKER_02]: Gotta shoot my shot.

[00:52:17] [SPEAKER_02]: It worked for Drew and Bowen.

[00:52:21] [SPEAKER_05]: It did work for Drew and Bowen.

[00:52:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Who are definitely not Travis and Taylor.

[00:52:24] [SPEAKER_02]: That's right.

[00:52:25] [SPEAKER_02]: No.

[00:52:25] [SPEAKER_02]: No way.

[00:52:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Definitely not.

[00:52:27] [SPEAKER_06]: Any comparison is completely coincidental.

[00:52:29] [SPEAKER_06]: That's right.

[00:52:30] [SPEAKER_01]: The song isn't terrible at the Christmas gala

[00:52:33] [SPEAKER_01]: and she gives a speech

[00:52:35] [SPEAKER_01]: and she promises not to fumble her chance at love again.

[00:52:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's like,

[00:52:38] [SPEAKER_05]: I'll make it perfectly clear.

[00:52:40] [SPEAKER_05]: This song is about Drew.

[00:52:42] [SPEAKER_05]: Does one of those things where she's like,

[00:52:43] [SPEAKER_05]: this is what this song is about.

[00:52:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:52:46] [SPEAKER_01]: And then Drew runs in and he's like,

[00:52:47] [SPEAKER_01]: I love you.

[00:52:48] [SPEAKER_01]: And they're like,

[00:52:49] [SPEAKER_01]: let's go.

[00:52:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's freaking go.

[00:52:50] [SPEAKER_01]: She says,

[00:52:51] [SPEAKER_01]: before kissing,

[00:52:53] [SPEAKER_01]: she says,

[00:52:54] [SPEAKER_05]: let's freaking go, man.

[00:52:55] [SPEAKER_05]: She says,

[00:52:56] [SPEAKER_05]: let's freaking go.

[00:52:58] [SPEAKER_05]: Before they kiss.

[00:52:59] [SPEAKER_02]: It's just the second time that's happened.

[00:53:01] [SPEAKER_02]: Let's freaking go.

[00:53:03] [SPEAKER_02]: Let's freaking go.

[00:53:05] [SPEAKER_02]: This was where she's like,

[00:53:06] [SPEAKER_02]: I promise I'll love you.

[00:53:07] [SPEAKER_02]: And he comes in and he's like,

[00:53:08] [SPEAKER_02]: is that a pinky promise?

[00:53:11] [SPEAKER_02]: And yeah,

[00:53:12] [SPEAKER_02]: that was,

[00:53:13] [SPEAKER_02]: that was gross.

[00:53:14] [SPEAKER_02]: I didn't like that part.

[00:53:15] [SPEAKER_01]: No.

[00:53:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's freaking go.

[00:53:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:53:17] [SPEAKER_01]: We're adults.

[00:53:18] [SPEAKER_01]: We don't pinky swear anymore.

[00:53:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Um,

[00:53:20] [SPEAKER_01]: we get a final scene of Christmas morning.

[00:53:22] [SPEAKER_01]: He gives her a present.

[00:53:23] [SPEAKER_01]: His present to her is a puzzle piece because she's the missing piece of him.

[00:53:28] [SPEAKER_05]: That's right.

[00:53:28] [SPEAKER_01]: And she gives him,

[00:53:30] [SPEAKER_01]: I forget.

[00:53:31] [SPEAKER_05]: So here's the thing that was crazy to me is he gives,

[00:53:34] [SPEAKER_05]: she gives him the puzzle that they put together.

[00:53:37] [SPEAKER_05]: That was missing the piece of the cabin.

[00:53:39] [SPEAKER_05]: He gives her the missing puzzle piece.

[00:53:41] [SPEAKER_05]: And then she puts the puzzle piece onto the,

[00:53:45] [SPEAKER_05]: so there's no glass cover in that sucker.

[00:53:47] [SPEAKER_05]: This is a picture frame.

[00:53:48] [SPEAKER_05]: Where at any given time,

[00:53:50] [SPEAKER_06]: the puzzle pieces can still just pop out.

[00:53:53] [SPEAKER_06]: What's the point of the frame?

[00:53:54] [SPEAKER_06]: There is none.

[00:53:55] [SPEAKER_06]: There's no point.

[00:53:56] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:53:56] [SPEAKER_05]: But it happened and they did it.

[00:53:57] [SPEAKER_05]: And that's the movie.

[00:53:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Wow.

[00:53:59] [SPEAKER_01]: That's the movie.

[00:54:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:54:02] [SPEAKER_01]: So,

[00:54:02] [SPEAKER_01]: um,

[00:54:03] [SPEAKER_01]: now it is time for us to say whether we would put a cork in it or pour it up.

[00:54:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Um,

[00:54:08] [SPEAKER_01]: we'll start with Dan because we already kind of know where he's going,

[00:54:11] [SPEAKER_01]: but Dan,

[00:54:12] [SPEAKER_01]: what are your thoughts?

[00:54:13] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:54:13] [SPEAKER_06]: I've got to put a cork in this because I heard the let's freaking go.

[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_06]: No,

[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_06]: it's freaking go.

[00:54:18] [SPEAKER_06]: No,

[00:54:19] [SPEAKER_06]: I think that like from what has been described to me,

[00:54:24] [SPEAKER_06]: I think I would hate this movie.

[00:54:26] [SPEAKER_06]: And I like Taylor Swift isn't for me,

[00:54:29] [SPEAKER_06]: but like,

[00:54:30] [SPEAKER_06]: she's undeniable.

[00:54:31] [SPEAKER_06]: She's an amazing songwriter.

[00:54:33] [SPEAKER_06]: She's a whirlwind.

[00:54:35] [SPEAKER_06]: She's a,

[00:54:35] [SPEAKER_06]: a boss B of a human being who makes great decisions at boss baby.

[00:54:40] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:54:40] [SPEAKER_06]: Different.

[00:54:41] [SPEAKER_06]: No,

[00:54:41] [SPEAKER_06]: yeah.

[00:54:41] [SPEAKER_06]: All together.

[00:54:41] [SPEAKER_06]: Uh,

[00:54:42] [SPEAKER_06]: she makes great business decisions.

[00:54:44] [SPEAKER_06]: She thinks things through.

[00:54:46] [SPEAKER_06]: She empathizes.

[00:54:47] [SPEAKER_06]: She is like,

[00:54:48] [SPEAKER_06]: she's a magnate that is better at being a magnate than people that spend their

[00:54:53] [SPEAKER_06]: lives studying business to try to be magnates are.

[00:54:56] [SPEAKER_06]: She's an unbelievable person and pop star,

[00:54:58] [SPEAKER_06]: not my thing,

[00:54:59] [SPEAKER_06]: but that doesn't mean it.

[00:55:00] [SPEAKER_06]: She's not good.

[00:55:01] [SPEAKER_06]: She's amazing.

[00:55:02] [SPEAKER_06]: Uh,

[00:55:03] [SPEAKER_06]: this movie trying to capitalize on her good,

[00:55:06] [SPEAKER_06]: good forum.

[00:55:06] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't care.

[00:55:07] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm fascinated to see if she watched it or not.

[00:55:09] [SPEAKER_06]: I think the problem is,

[00:55:11] [SPEAKER_06]: is from what I've heard,

[00:55:12] [SPEAKER_06]: it seems like really deep cut references by the dozens and lines like,

[00:55:18] [SPEAKER_06]: let's freaking go.

[00:55:20] [SPEAKER_06]: And I don't want those two things to me add up to absolutely not ever.

[00:55:27] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't want to watch it.

[00:55:28] [SPEAKER_06]: So maybe the movie's better than that.

[00:55:31] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm seeing some chatter in the chat that it is better than that,

[00:55:34] [SPEAKER_06]: but for me and my house,

[00:55:37] [SPEAKER_06]: no.

[00:55:38] [SPEAKER_06]: So that,

[00:55:38] [SPEAKER_06]: that's what I'm going with.

[00:55:39] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm gonna put a cork in it.

[00:55:40] [SPEAKER_01]: And that's fair.

[00:55:41] [SPEAKER_01]: That's fair.

[00:55:42] [SPEAKER_01]: I think that's fair.

[00:55:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Rebecca,

[00:55:44] [SPEAKER_01]: as the Swifty,

[00:55:46] [SPEAKER_01]: let's,

[00:55:46] [SPEAKER_01]: let's see what you think,

[00:55:47] [SPEAKER_01]: because I feel like it could go either way.

[00:55:49] [SPEAKER_02]: I,

[00:55:50] [SPEAKER_02]: I wrote down,

[00:55:51] [SPEAKER_02]: um,

[00:55:52] [SPEAKER_02]: ew,

[00:55:53] [SPEAKER_02]: why do I kind of like it?

[00:55:54] [SPEAKER_02]: Um,

[00:55:55] [SPEAKER_02]: and then later wrote down,

[00:55:57] [SPEAKER_02]: uh,

[00:55:57] [SPEAKER_02]: I hate that.

[00:55:57] [SPEAKER_02]: I like this so much.

[00:55:58] [SPEAKER_02]: Um,

[00:56:00] [SPEAKER_02]: because,

[00:56:01] [SPEAKER_02]: you know,

[00:56:02] [SPEAKER_02]: when you watch a lifetime movie,

[00:56:03] [SPEAKER_02]: you have to suspend reality a little bit.

[00:56:05] [SPEAKER_02]: So if you can divorce it from the Taylor and Travis of it all,

[00:56:08] [SPEAKER_02]: which,

[00:56:09] [SPEAKER_02]: cause again,

[00:56:10] [SPEAKER_02]: not about,

[00:56:11] [SPEAKER_06]: no,

[00:56:13] [SPEAKER_02]: a terrible movie.

[00:56:15] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

[00:56:15] [SPEAKER_02]: I mean,

[00:56:16] [SPEAKER_02]: it's a bad movie.

[00:56:17] [SPEAKER_02]: It's a made for TV movie on lifetime,

[00:56:18] [SPEAKER_02]: but it's not terrible.

[00:56:20] [SPEAKER_02]: Uh,

[00:56:20] [SPEAKER_02]: and I really enjoyed the deep cuts.

[00:56:23] [SPEAKER_02]: So I think I'd pour it up.

[00:56:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

[00:56:27] [SPEAKER_05]: And Bran in the words of Bowen,

[00:56:31] [SPEAKER_07]: let's freaking go.

[00:56:33] [SPEAKER_05]: Let's freaking go.

[00:56:35] [SPEAKER_05]: I loved it.

[00:56:36] [SPEAKER_05]: I thought it was fantastic.

[00:56:38] [SPEAKER_05]: I had a blast.

[00:56:40] [SPEAKER_05]: The chemistry with these two was off the charts.

[00:56:43] [SPEAKER_05]: I don't get any or,

[00:56:44] [SPEAKER_05]: or,

[00:56:45] [SPEAKER_05]: or as,

[00:56:45] [SPEAKER_05]: as Bo would probably say off to freaking charts.

[00:56:47] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:56:47] [SPEAKER_05]: It was a lovely.

[00:56:49] [SPEAKER_05]: Yeah.

[00:56:50] [SPEAKER_05]: There,

[00:56:50] [SPEAKER_05]: there was some great,

[00:56:51] [SPEAKER_05]: great chemistry between these two and some great,

[00:56:53] [SPEAKER_05]: uh,

[00:56:53] [SPEAKER_05]: moments.

[00:56:54] [SPEAKER_05]: Um,

[00:56:55] [SPEAKER_05]: yeah,

[00:56:56] [SPEAKER_05]: it were.

[00:56:56] [SPEAKER_05]: And the music wasn't bad.

[00:56:58] [SPEAKER_05]: So,

[00:56:58] [SPEAKER_05]: uh,

[00:56:59] [SPEAKER_05]: a big win for Bran really enjoyed it.

[00:57:00] [SPEAKER_05]: And I don't care about these two at all.

[00:57:02] [SPEAKER_05]: So there you have it.

[00:57:03] [SPEAKER_05]: There you go.

[00:57:04] [SPEAKER_01]: There you go.

[00:57:05] [SPEAKER_01]: And so I would say like along the lines of like,

[00:57:08] [SPEAKER_01]: so we watch a lot of Christmas movies at Christmas.

[00:57:12] [SPEAKER_01]: This was not very Christmas related.

[00:57:14] [SPEAKER_01]: It just was set at Christmas or around the holidays.

[00:57:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Not even Christmas had little to nothing to do with this movie.

[00:57:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Um,

[00:57:21] [SPEAKER_01]: so I think that helped it in a way because we're just getting a love story.

[00:57:25] [SPEAKER_01]: And which is a Taylor Swift song.

[00:57:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Um,

[00:57:29] [SPEAKER_01]: and we're getting a nice love story.

[00:57:31] [SPEAKER_01]: It's more about the chemistry of the actors,

[00:57:34] [SPEAKER_01]: less about the plot,

[00:57:35] [SPEAKER_01]: less about anything.

[00:57:36] [SPEAKER_01]: The Taylor Swift of it all.

[00:57:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Uh,

[00:57:39] [SPEAKER_01]: it was like two good actors who like had nice chemistry.

[00:57:42] [SPEAKER_01]: They were both really good.

[00:57:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Hour and a half.

[00:57:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[00:57:46] [SPEAKER_01]: So no synopsis or recaps going to do this movie justice.

[00:57:49] [SPEAKER_01]: You just got to get,

[00:57:50] [SPEAKER_01]: watch it and get in the vibes.

[00:57:52] [SPEAKER_01]: And then,

[00:57:52] [SPEAKER_01]: um,

[00:57:53] [SPEAKER_01]: if you are a Taylor Swift fan,

[00:57:55] [SPEAKER_01]: I think that you would,

[00:57:57] [SPEAKER_01]: uh,

[00:57:57] [SPEAKER_01]: like,

[00:57:57] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah,

[00:57:57] [SPEAKER_01]: be like,

[00:57:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh God,

[00:57:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I like this movie.

[00:57:59] [SPEAKER_01]: And it also has a bunch of references to something that I already like.

[00:58:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's freaking go.

[00:58:03] [SPEAKER_06]: Wow.

[00:58:04] [SPEAKER_06]: And it wasn't very Christmassy and you didn't care.

[00:58:06] [SPEAKER_06]: No.

[00:58:07] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:58:07] [SPEAKER_06]: This was barely Christmassy.

[00:58:09] [SPEAKER_06]: Normally that's a big,

[00:58:10] [SPEAKER_06]: like deal breaker for you.

[00:58:12] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:58:12] [SPEAKER_06]: Chemistry was good.

[00:58:13] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:58:13] [SPEAKER_06]: I don't tell you.

[00:58:14] [SPEAKER_06]: Wow.

[00:58:14] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:58:15] [SPEAKER_06]: It was good.

[00:58:15] [SPEAKER_06]: Seems like a sliding scale there.

[00:58:16] [SPEAKER_06]: I,

[00:58:16] [SPEAKER_06]: I didn't get any of that.

[00:58:18] [SPEAKER_06]: Obviously from you guys did a great job of keeping your opinions to close to the

[00:58:21] [SPEAKER_06]: best.

[00:58:22] [SPEAKER_06]: I just based upon what I had,

[00:58:24] [SPEAKER_06]: it's an absolute no go,

[00:58:25] [SPEAKER_06]: but it sounds like I need to give it a shot guys.

[00:58:27] [SPEAKER_06]: Uh huh.

[00:58:27] [SPEAKER_06]: Should we watch it?

[00:58:28] [SPEAKER_06]: Should we?

[00:58:29] [SPEAKER_05]: We should watch it together.

[00:58:30] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:58:31] [SPEAKER_06]: I mean,

[00:58:31] [SPEAKER_06]: only on company time.

[00:58:32] [SPEAKER_06]: I'm not watching it in my spare time.

[00:58:34] [SPEAKER_06]: We should watch it.

[00:58:35] [SPEAKER_06]: We can watch it.

[00:58:36] [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.

[00:58:36] [SPEAKER_06]: You guys should watch it.

[00:58:37] [SPEAKER_06]: We can turn it on while he's doing Christmas morning tomorrow.

[00:58:39] [SPEAKER_05]: We did it.
