  Speaker 1: as editor in chief. Bill to Rory Roy, thank you
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: very much. I didn't write a speech or anything, although
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: I could recite, recite the Charge of the Light Brigade
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: or the lyrics to Rebel Rebel. The Charge of the
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Light Brigade is an eighteen fifty four narrative poem by
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Alfred Lloyd Tennyson. Rebel Rebel is a song by the
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: incomparable David Bowie from the album Diamond Dogs, which that
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: is an album cover that disturbed me and my friends
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Beck in the day. Did you know? The song has
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: been described as Bowie's farewell to the glam rock movement
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: that he helped initiate, and what a song it is.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: We'll get right back to pop culture. After these messages.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: Lane is freaking out about telling her mother she's pregnant,
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: and Zach distracts her with a photo and Zack says, WHOA,
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: you know what? This picture is our first album cover.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: It was the ultrasound picture and Lisa's Zack, and Zack says, yeah,
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: it's like a prenatal never Mind. Never Mind is the
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: second studio album created by the rock band Nirvana. It
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: was their first release on a major label and the
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: first to feature the drummer Dave Grohl, who is now
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: the lead singer of Foo Fighters. The album cover shows
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: a naked baby boy swimming underwater with a dollar bill
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: on a fish hook just out of his reach.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: Did you want to bring this up? But is this
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: the picture that this kid keeps suing them?
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. Hopefully Lane's kids won't sue her. But did
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: you know Kurt Cobaine conceived the idea no pun intended
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: while watching a television program on water birds.
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: I believe it, and they should have used a kid
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: they knew, always a better way to go.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Laura Li and Christopher arrived in Paris and just dropped
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: off Gigi with Sherry. Laura I says, yeah, she seems
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: grounded and sincere I couldn't believe how prepared for Gigi
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: she was. Christopher says she was. She had her favorite
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Madeline book, she knew where the nearest park was, and
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: did you see she already had a booster seat? Madeline
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: is a nineteen thirty nine book written and illustrated by
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Ludwig Bemelmans. The book is known for its rhyme scheme
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: and colorful images of Paris. There are a total of
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: six books, which have also been adapted into a television
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: series and film. And did you know that each of
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: the Madeline books? And with the line that's all there is,
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: there isn't anymore, which comes from Ethel Barrymore Drew Barrymore's
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: great aunt when she used to rebuff Kurt calls on Broadway.
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: Parris believes that since Rory is no longer editor of
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: the paper, she is going to struggle with so much
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: free time like she did. Paris says, you know, you
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: really shouldn't be alone at a time like this. Why
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: don't you call your Girls Gone Wild friends? They seemed
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: delightful in a get crazy, drunken cancun and flash your
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: breast kind of way. Girls Gone Wild was an adult
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: entertainment franchise created by Joe Francis in nineteen ninety seven.
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: The videos typically involved camera crews at party locations engaging
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: young college aged women who exposed their bodies or act
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: quote unquote wild. Did you know the company that owns
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: Girls Gone Wild and all its related brands went bankrupt.
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: Joe Francis to creator fled to Mexico nearly a decade ago.
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: Amidst all of this, there was some kind of drama.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of drama. I mean, and we said
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: college aged women, but a lot of the drama was
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: that they weren't even of age. Yeah, yeah, yeah, So
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: there was a lot of stickiness.
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: Stepher and Laura Li fell asleep. I missed third dinner subject,
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: so now they are trying to go back to bed
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: to wake up fresh in the morning. So wide awake,
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: I could watch the Ken Burns documentary of SOD and
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: not drift off. There are one hundred and four flirt
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Elys stenciled on the ceiling. That's how wide awake I am.
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: I tried humming Brahm's Lullaby in my head, but it
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: kept morphing into purple rain. And purple rain made me
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: think of grapes, which made me think of grape jam,
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: which made me think of English muffins slathered in great
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: grape jam. This was a particular line I hated because
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: I thought, that's the witty banter that just wasn't working.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: But anyway. Ken Burns is a historian known for his
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: documentary film.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Shot I'm sorry, but a great looking shot overhead?
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Yes it was.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: That was great, Yes it was. Many of which Ken's
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: Burns documentaries discuss American history and culture. Brahm's Lullaby was
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: written by Johannes Brahms, a German composer and pianist of
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: the Romantic period. Purple Rain, Come On, Who Doesn't Know?
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: It's a nineteen eighty four song album and musical drama
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: film by Prince Did you Know? Purple Rain was originally
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: written as a country song and intended to be a
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: collaboration with Stevie Nicks, who was also eleven minutes long,
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: which frightened Stevie. Did you also know? Nothing Compares to You?
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: Sinead O'Connor's big hit was written by Prince.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Think, Yes, that's true.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Good song.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: Rory is alone in her apartment and calls Olivia, what's
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: Lucy doing watching Real World?
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Denver?
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: Lucy's eating it up with a fork and spoon because
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: boyfriend's working and you know how much he hates reality TV.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: First of all, the fact that they call him boyfriend
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: is so annoying. Does he Oh, I keep forgetting you
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: still haven't Matt boyfriend? Yeah, I'm beginning to wonder if
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: he really exists or if he's just Lucy's snuffle up against.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: This banter is awful. The Real World Denver was the
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: eighteen season of MTV's reality show, which aired from November
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: two thousand and six to May two thousand and seven.
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: Mister stuffal Upagus, I've never heard him called mister, but
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: I know snuffle up Agus is from Sesame Street. He's
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: sort of like a mammoth mixed with a joke aunt eater.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: He is Big Bird's best friend, but is believed to
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: be imaginary, as Big Bird was the only one to
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: ever see him. Did you know that? In the early eighties,
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: producers of Sesame Street feared that if they represented adults
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: not believing what kids said, they might not be motivated
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: to tell the truth. This led them to changing the
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: storyline of the show, which I always heard was at
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: the time, you know, they really wanted kids to come
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: forward if they were being abused or mistreated, and so
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: they changed it so that kids would know if you
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: tell an adult something's happening to you, they will believe you.
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: Which yeay, Sesame Street gotta love it, Danielle.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Do you remember in the last season of Real House
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Sives of Orange County when someone called someone else a
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: snuffle up agains.
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah, this reminded me of that.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: All right, Christopher and Laurela. I find someone with bread.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: They attempt to converse with him. Bread guy, funkins.
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: Laura.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: I yeah, funny hungry American. Huh, bread Guy.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Everybody Loves Raymond.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Everybody Loves Raymond was a sitcom created by Phil Rosenthal,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: starring Ray Romano, Patricia heat and Brad Garrett Dorris Roberts.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Did you know Brad Garrett made the headlines in two
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: thousand and three for staging a walkout on set over
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: the disparity of pay between cast members. I love that
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: thanks to his actions, he got a raise from the
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: network and the entire cast got a piece of the
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: syndication money.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: Oh funny twist. In a funny twist, Phil Rosenthal, It's
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: funny that they mentioned Everybody Loves Raymond with the bread
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: Guy because Phil Rosenthal is now more famous than ever
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: for Everybody Feed Phil. He goes around. He's got like
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: books about food, children's books about food, a TV show
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: about food. So I wonder if Filmore Girls was a
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: bit fortuitous.
