  Speaker 1: You know, what's going down the floor like us around.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: I feel like we need to migrate our rage over
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: to a new topic.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: And maybe well look, girl, let's let's let's actually let's
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: bring it to a positive okay, Rose, this episode has
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: gifted us something that is absolutely invaluable, which is Chay
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Dias is dead name and that that was so I shrieked, no,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: we can say it, but Phoebe has I say no, no,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: can I say something?
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: Say something problematic?
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: This is Patreon.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: So I think Chay's stand up with their old presentation
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: was better than their current stand up when they were
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: like they're like men suck at I right, ladies, Like
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: that's funnier than any other comedy Chay has done on
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: the show. So I I disagree, but I know I'm
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: I'm not being no, Okay, but here's the thing, I
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: also am gonna kind of agree because because.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Just the bar was so low, so like, yeah, I
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: also thought.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: That maybe that's what they were doing, like he was
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: gonna watch that video and was gonna be like, oh,
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: I used to be so funny, like let me get
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: back there, and instead it like, oh, most reinforced that
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: the comedy that they've been doing is bad.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: See okay, yes, okay, okay, okay. When I was watching it,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: the way I experienced it was, oh, Chads is now
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: watching Dead Name YouTube videos, which okay, relatable, every trans
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: person does this, like if you want to have a
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: nice little night in with your blunt and your trauma whatever,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: But like when I was watching it, I was like, oh, like.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Phoebe Bleep, the Dead Name is really bombing.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Like That's how I was experiencing the comedy, Like the
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: laughter wasn't that strong, and like the punchlines were kind
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: of meandering, like it didn't feel like they were selling it.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: They felt so out of their body, and I thought
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: that that's what the scene was trying to tell us.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: It was like, oh, like Chay.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Used to be so like like you know, making material
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: that was like so not who they were and blah
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: blah blah, and so I thought that was going to
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: be an AHA moment to be like, don't go back
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: to where you came from, but instead it was in
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: AHA moment, that's like, that's the comedy that they should
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: be making again, Like what I didn't get it?
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: It was it was so weird, and I actually wish
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: a well, I think it would have been a more
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: interesting choice to be like, oh, when Chay was presenting differently,
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: like even if they didn't look the way that they
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: wanted to or ment or whatever, they had a better
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: grasp on what was funny or whatever, and it would
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: have been cool for them to like reclaim what they
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: were doing at that time, like with their current presentation
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: instead of I don't even know. It's like every everything
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: they try to introduce with Chay is like conflicting and confusing,
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: and I don't I don't understand. I just like I
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: don't think they should be this much of a character
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: on the show. Like I liked them as a foil
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: for Miranda. I actually thought that's where Miranda sees them
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: doing stand up and it's all about her. That is
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: effective for Miranda and it led to some good drama.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: It does make me concerned that the two of them
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: are going to you know, in the last episode, but no,
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: that can't be. That's what's gonna happen because.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: We have the envy.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: We have the envy that's like, Oh, I'm sorry, can
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I call you an envy?
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: That's so offensive?
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: It's like, what once.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Again was that.
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: Are Is it like the most famous thing about cha,
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: like in the world, that they are non bids? Yeah?
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: And I was like, but also it felt like the
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: way the way the scene was written, I actually really
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: want to deep dive deep into a lot of the
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: chay of it all.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: If you want to go there with me for this.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Episode, I have a lot to say, so yes and
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: please yes. And that scene when the envy was like
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: I believe they said explicitly they said nothing hotter than
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: a strong envy person, which.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Which is the exact line.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: I almost threw something on my TV.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: I was like that and then the response was like
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: oh and then they were like, oh sorry, can I
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: call you endy? And the way it was written, I
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: was like, do the writers think that envy is like
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: some kind of slur or like it's like some kind
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: of like it's like different than just non binary. Yeah,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Like it was so so wild and obviously, sorry to
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: blow up your spot, but I'm gonna say it over
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: and over again, there are no non binary writers in
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: this writer's room. There are no like transmasculine writers in
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: this writer's room. There are no Latin people in this
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: writer's room. So it shows in scenes like this that
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: are I liked the part where.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: That comment the comic was heckling the couple, Yeah, the
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: very obviously trans couple, and he was like, I'm trans,
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: Like yeah, we know.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: It was so once again, the people writing this are
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: so cistion. It's so so frustrating how cisgender. The framing
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: and line deliveries, and and and and that you're that
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: is exactly I was gonna bring that up to ros.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: It's just it drove me crazy. Also, the non binary
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: with a septum piercing wearing a newsboy's hat just after
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Carrie war that newsboy's.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Hat two episodes ago.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Who is putting all of the Newsy hats.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: On these characters, But honestly, that is the non binary
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: person wearing it does make it? Yes, it does? It does?
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: It does Carrie wearing it rotten, especially in that blanket.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: The transmit of the crowd was so funny.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, I'm a wait, can I can I
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: tell you something that's maybe gonna surprise you?
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Though sure.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: In this kind of fight that boiled down between Miranda
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: and Trey outside of the club, which I actually thought
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: was very interesting. And this I'd never ever want to
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: see MPK write a stand up material ever ever in
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: my life. But or anything or any sure, but in
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: this in this yes, But in this scene, Chay doing stand.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Up is necessary for the plot.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: And I actually would have welcomed this scene if I
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: hadn't already watched so much bad stand up. But the
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: jokes weren't funny and they weren't even that mean, and
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: so the stakes weren't there for me. But at the
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: end of the day, on the character level, I think
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Miranda is wrong and Chay was right.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: What do you think Miranda's wrong about?
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: I think Miranda was wrong to show up without telling Chay.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: That's number one. If they were wrong to be mad
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: that Chay did a bunch of stand up about her,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: because that is literally their job, which is to mind
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: their life for material, and they obviously never would have
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: done that material if they knew that Miranda would be there.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that it's like, oh, Chay is just
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: mad that they got No, it's Chay is someone who
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: has to create material out of their life in order
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: to live. But they probably still care a lot about Miranda.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: I'm sure they would tell Miranda to their face, Hey,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: I'm making material about you, but I don't think you're
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: ready to see it, you know what I mean, Like
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: that would be a mature conversation.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think it's about right and wrong, Like, yes,
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: Miranda should have told Chay she was coming, And it's like,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: it's not about whether it's right for Chaye to mine
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: their personal life for comedy. It's about the emotion of
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: Miranda seeing that and being hurt by it, which honestly,
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: like is something that Miranda needed to experience at this
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: part of her journey. I think, I mean, I don't
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: want to talk about up mare, so I'm not gonna
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: investigate it too deeply. But I just I'm still like,
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: if next week is the last episode of this iteration
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: of the show, and I truly think it is, how
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: the fuck is Miranda's story going to end?
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because honestly, Chay has a bigger plotline than Miranda
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: at this point.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: Like, yeah, if you want to hear all of our thoughts,
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: but then just like that, go to Patreon dot com,
