Episode 139 - GLOW - Concerned Women of America · My Third Place Pod

0:01
I joined TikTok in 2020. I don't know what happened.
0:04
A friend sent me a funny video early in the afternoon, and I
0:09
was only supposed to watch that video and next thing you know,
0:12
it was late at night. And I just wasted an entire day
0:15
of just scrolling and watching funny videos thinking, hey, I
0:19
can do that too. Why not?
0:22
And so I did. I created the account.
0:26
I created the account in July of that night, Formerly $1,000,000
0:33
Geek. I always loved that name.
0:35
It's legendary. It's still my e-mail address and
0:39
I still have that Twitter account under that name.
0:42
It was the name we used for just about everything.
0:44
All right, so back story on that name, if you do remember, good
0:49
on you. But there was a movie in 2004
0:52
called Million Dollar Baby. I used to love that movie.
0:55
It was a boxing movie, probably my favorite boxing movie since
0:59
Rocky. I've seen others since, but when
1:03
it came down to picking my name on Myspace, yes, Myspace.
1:09
I remember having watched this movie and I named myself
1:12
$1,000,000 Geek. Because why not?
1:16
Fast forward to 2010, I've made a Tumblr account by that name.
1:20
Another account that's dead. Just like Instagram or Twitter.
1:24
Mill dollar Geek, $1,000,000 Geek.
1:26
Yeah, sure, why not. Fast forward again to 2014.
1:30
I'm fast forwarding throughout the entire time I I'm doing
1:33
this. You know, this is just basic
1:35
stuff. Facts that you, like need to
1:38
don't need to know at all. I've used this name for 10 years
1:41
now. I thought it was time for a
1:43
change. I thought I had evolved from
1:45
just being $1,000,000 geek and I'm already using MDG on all of
1:50
your accounts. So I said let's change this one
1:53
up for a bit. I chose Evolution of a Geek
1:57
because it portrayed me as someone who would always evolve.
2:02
While everyone was worried about Yahoo buying out Tumblr and
2:06
taking out all the porn stuff and then leaving, I stuck around
2:10
because I wanted Tumblr to be my home.
2:14
Evolution of a Geek. Evolution of a geek.
2:17
I'm already massacring my name. Evolution of a geek.
2:20
The blog with me just basically shit posting a lot of shit post
2:28
about my workouts, the challenges that I would face
2:31
each day, the new friends that I made on that account.
2:35
Everything from the rise to the downfall.
2:40
Hip arthritis, Knee injuries, Muscle spasms, Frozen shoulders,
2:47
getting fired from my jobs, Diabetes, mental health, all of
2:54
that was related to that blog. If I wasn't on Tumblr, I was on
3:00
TikTok. And if I wasn't on TikTok, I was
3:02
on Tumblr. Not necessarily the same time,
3:05
but it worked out for me again. I left TikTok in September of
3:10
2022. I needed the time off.
3:13
I wanted to take a break. All that year.
3:17
I wasn't doing good. I kept coming in, kept leaving,
3:21
coming in again, leaving. Was that the year that I was
3:25
supposed to celebrate the podcast that I was starting the
3:29
podcast? Yes, that's the year that I
3:31
started the podcast. So you know, I kept coming in.
3:39
I left to do the podcast again. I was going to take a two week
3:43
break and work on the podcast, but those two weeks ends up
3:48
being a month long and that month long ends up being three
3:53
months a whole year and a half later.
3:57
Here I am because I thought I didn't know how to do this
3:59
again. I didn't want to come back and
4:03
it it just feels like that right now.
4:05
I don't know how to do this. I don't.
4:12
I want to know, but I don't know how to do this again.
4:16
If you want to know how I did during those three months, check
4:20
out the podcast from September to January.
4:23
I thrived. Why January?
4:27
Because once January hit Tumblr, once a day again, Tumblr once
4:33
again updated us with a new new play thing, a new device.
4:38
A new device For me, Tumblr Live was born.
4:43
I was on there nightly for a whole year, with the exception
4:46
of May. I went on vacation, but I was on
4:50
there consistently learning, watching, adapting.
4:54
It's what I do. I adapt.
4:57
I adapt to change. I like to change.
5:00
I strive on change. So while mostly everyone that
5:04
was there were digging for diamonds and coming from other
5:07
apps to supposedly take over, I was watching.
5:12
I was told, be the change you want it to be.
5:17
I was the change. The reason I was watching was
5:20
because I wanted to be different from the norm and what everyone
5:23
was doing, which was basically smoking and drinking and being
5:29
boring. Well, not necessarily boring.
5:31
They had their little friends with their little boxes, you
5:33
know? I, on the other hand, wasn't
5:36
about that. What was the difference?
5:39
You asked. I ignored everyone and recorded
5:42
my podcast on this dream. Instead of promising people the
5:47
top spot on leaderboard of diamonds, I told them I would
5:50
shout them out on the podcast. Just stop in, hang out with me,
5:55
be a supporter, listen to me talk, hang out with me, vibe
5:58
with me. That's all you need to do.
6:02
Later I would include games like Incoherent Family Feud and Would
6:06
You Rather Fridays? We're for EDM playlist and
6:12
usually I would ask people, tell me your favorite song.
6:16
Tell me a song that means a lot to you and they would do it.
6:20
I had a following, so to speak. I had a support system, even
6:25
other people that are podcasters.
6:26
When we're streaming I would help them out.
6:30
Cloudy from the Nose that sent this podcast.
6:32
She's around here on TikTok. Also Weezy as Soup from the Life
6:35
of 30 Year Old Podcast and I beloved Psy from the Sweet Life
6:38
pod. We all networked.
6:43
I shout those people out at the end of every episode.
6:45
I still do. I even have an adult website
6:48
sponsoring me get 20% off on adult toys when you enter
6:52
discount code evo at pleasure passport dot shop, that's evo
6:58
Evo Link will be in the shout outs Tumblr live might have been
7:04
a bad thing for some people. Maybe about 80% of the Tumblr
7:07
community, because the other twenty were sure using it and
7:11
wanted to be a part of something.
7:14
I was a part of that. I told you, I adopt.
7:17
I'm not going to follow everybody in a community full of
7:21
streamers that weren't a part of the Tumblr community.
7:23
Anyway, I made sure I was one of those people to represent for
7:29
them for Tumblr. I said this before, and I'll
7:33
keep saying it until the cows come home, but Tumblr Live was
7:38
something I wanted to look forward to.
7:54
None. Welcome back, Father's Behavior
8:23
Squad. I'm Evo, and you are listening
8:27
to a friend spanking new episode of From Onto the Apron live on
8:35
TikTok. So there's a new elephant in the
8:39
room. Suddenly, this place has become
8:43
a zoo with elephants. But there's a new elephant in
8:47
this room. There's it's the mother of all
8:50
elephants. It's Dumbo's mother.
8:51
Perhaps it yeah, if you know this was the thing.
8:56
It'd be Dumbo's mom if you woke up February 1st and found out
9:01
all your audio videos had been muted.
9:04
Well, you're not the only one. I had to hide about 75% of my
9:09
page because there's like a few there.
9:13
There were, there were some songs, there were some lip sync,
9:15
There was a lot of lip syncing songs.
9:18
There was a lot of friends shows and all that stuff.
9:24
So, yeah, so, so the so here's what happened at this.
9:28
Come from Ben Cesario from the New York Times.
9:31
I will surely have the article this article on in the show
9:37
notes so y'all can read it if you choose to, he says.
9:42
TikTok users woke up Thursday and discovered that many videos
9:45
using songs by stars like Taylor Swift, Londa Ray, Drake and
9:49
Ariana Grande had gone silent after a public brawl between the
9:54
talk and Universal Music Group, the world's largest music
9:59
company. It was a styling turn of events
10:01
for the apps creators and users, as well As for the music
10:04
business, where heated negotiations over copyright
10:07
permissions and royalty terms sometimes went over into public
10:10
view, but rarely reach what one industry publication called the
10:15
Nuclear option, the full, scalable removal of content from
10:19
one of music's biggest and most influential online outlets.
10:24
Why did Universal Music leave on Tuesday?
10:27
Universal Music, the global giant, released music by
10:29
hundreds of major artists, publish A forceful open letter
10:33
at the end of his contract with the social media platform
10:36
Neared. Universal said that if The Talk,
10:39
which is owned by a Chinese company, Bytedance, had net
10:42
adequately addressed Universal concerns over AI generated music
10:47
on the platform and that it would not agree to what
10:50
Universal considers A satisfactory royalty rate.
10:54
Ultimately, the Talk is trying to build a music based business,
10:58
the label said, without paying fair value for the music.
11:04
Universal noted that its existing deal with the Talk was
11:07
set to expire on Wednesday, and that the label said it would
11:09
revoke its license, the legal permissions to use its music, if
11:14
this agreement was not reached. The Dead Light came and went,
11:17
and Talk confirmed early Thursday that it begun removing
11:20
access to the Universal's vast catalogue of songs.
11:25
Wait, so you're telling me 75% of videos have been needed?
11:30
For what reason? What is Universal and which
11:33
artists are involved? Universal is the biggest of the
11:39
three major music conglomerates. The others are Sony and Warner
11:42
that have deals with thousands of music stars to release their
11:44
music. Besides Swift and Drake, it's
11:47
label's biggest names included Olivia, Rodrigo, Morgan Wallin,
11:51
Nicki Minaj, Billie, Eilish, Noah, Kahn, Post, Malone and
11:54
Lorde and has deals with K Pop giants like Straight Kids and
11:57
New Jeans. The company's label will include
12:02
Interscope, Jeff and Island, The Def Jam Capital, Motown, Blue
12:05
Note and Republic, and it also has an extensive music publish
12:09
division for songwriters. Universal's chief executive,
12:14
Lucian Grange, is a seasoned talent scout who for more than a
12:17
decade has been one of the industry's dominant corporate
12:20
leaders. Most of the years he tends to
12:22
take #1 on Billboard annual Power Hunger list.
12:25
This year he is at #2, behind Swift, with whom Grange is said
12:28
to have a close working relationship.
12:32
Universal has been aggressive in defending its artist rights and
12:34
is pursuing the best deals it can get.
12:36
Last year, the company sued Thriller, another social media
12:41
app, saying had not paid licenses.
12:43
TV's. Recently, Grange has been
12:45
outspoken about the need for control history standards
12:48
regarding the use of artificial intelligence in music.
12:52
How would the takedowns work when the music industry has had
12:56
issues in the past with streaming outlets like Spotify
13:00
and has had the ability, theoretically anyway?
13:03
It's always complicated to simply yank its content.
13:09
That is what happened when Warner Music fought with YouTube
13:12
for nine months in 2008 and 2009.
13:16
But the talk is different. On the other app, users upload
13:19
their own video clips and can draw from an audio library.
13:22
Much of it is supplied by labels like Universal to add background
13:26
sounds. Artists and record labels also
13:29
add their own content to comply with Universal withdraws.
13:32
Talk removed a company's songs from its music library, which
13:36
made those songs unavailable for new clips.
13:39
For older videos I had already had music from Universal Anthem.
13:42
Talk on Thursday began muting the clips, deleting the audio
13:46
entirely, leaving silent videos. That's what happened with videos
13:50
from survivors like Kylie Jenner and Dwayne Johnson Rock, as well
13:56
as on countless others, many included smarteries like this
13:59
sound isn't available on the official pages for just like
14:03
Swift, the sections that youth carry does.
14:05
The songs for users to feature went largely blank.
14:09
In some cases, brief snippets or user generated mixes remained.
14:13
The full process of removal is expected to take at least
14:16
several days. A TikTok representative on
14:19
Thursday did not say how many videos would be affected by
14:21
universal withdrawal, but it could conceivably be millions.
14:27
Why is it happening? In some ways, as an example of a
14:29
conflict that has played out repeatedly in the media business
14:32
over the last couple of decades, in which the innovations of tech
14:35
companies and sometimes the creativity of rule skirting
14:40
users, has run up against the music industry's demands for
14:43
control and fair compensation. This tension has been a driving
14:47
force in the music industry, from Napster and YouTube to
14:50
Pandora, and now hear the Talk universe's concerns are real and
14:56
reflects some of the most urgent challenges in the music Business
14:59
Today. Artists need to make a decent
15:02
living the parameters of modernizing contracts, the role
15:05
of artificial intelligence, and in recent years, music companies
15:08
have begun to adjust to the reality that music fans
15:11
attention is not solely focused on jukebox type streaming
15:15
outlets like Spotify or Apple Music, but also on the ray of
15:18
social platforms like The Talk, where your music may just be
15:22
just one attraction for the Talk.
15:25
As with any social media company, the issue may involve
15:29
how much leverage it is willing to relinquish to any single
15:33
content partner. As important as music, as music,
15:38
As is on talk in the past, the company has said music is at the
15:43
heart of talk experience. It does not represent the
15:46
entirety of the experience on the app.
15:48
As any talk user knows, a song could simply be the audio
15:52
wallpaper for a makeup tutorial or a plumbing how to guide.
15:58
How might this affect musicians? This is a key considering from
16:01
Universal, which says it is pursuing a better deal for its
16:04
acts. At the same time, the longer
16:08
dispute drags on, the more it may hurt artists, at least in
16:12
the short term. Talk is a divided promotional
16:15
outlet, and a generation of young fans now rely on the app
16:18
to discover music old and new. Some of the most vital moments
16:24
in music in recent years happened on Talk, from the
16:26
explosion of Lil Knox X Old Town Road and Olivier Rodrigo's
16:30
Driver's License. It's a revival of Fleetwood
16:33
Mac's dreams. For many artists today, being
16:37
absent from Talk would be like Madonna having a video disappear
16:39
from MTV in the 1980s. Just imagine not being able to
16:45
listen to Like a Virgin Wow or Get Into the Groove or any of
16:54
those Madonna hits. At the same time, though,
16:58
artists are keenly aware of of the need to secure better deals
17:02
for their music and of the low rates they face across the
17:04
streaming landscape. That is crazy.
17:08
Talk to an artist for two minutes about the business and
17:11
they will tell you they should make more money from streaming.
17:15
They just do not want to sacrifice promotion or their
17:17
connections to fans in the process.
17:20
So what happens now? We wait to see who blinks.
17:24
Universal Rosters of Stars gives leverage and losing access to a
17:28
library of thousands of the world's most popular songs.
17:30
Not good for the Tuck. Apps with a music component rely
17:33
on the licensing arrangements with entertainment companies and
17:36
users Expect to have a broad selection.
17:40
On the other hand, Tuck has licensing deals with many other
17:44
companies, and users could soon figure out that they could lose
17:47
access to a Lady Gaga song. They could pick one from, say,
17:51
Dua Lipa, a Warner artist, instead.
17:55
The greatest power, though, may reside with Universal artists,
17:58
especially those who have new music to hype.
18:01
If they feel that the conflict is starting to hurt them more
18:05
than a new deal could help, they will make it known.
18:09
Link to this article will be in the show notes.

Welcome back and we're moving right along with GLOW on Netflix
21:05
Season 2 Episode 3. For those that are new, this is
21:09
a recap and review podcast of the series series GLOW on
21:12
Netflix, a show about the gorgeous ladies of Wrestling
21:16
that was set in the 80s. I will have bits of trivia here
21:20
and there about the times that have changed with additional
21:22
interviews from the creators, directors, or stars of the show
21:26
throughout the years. All in all, it makes for an
21:29
awesome episode. If you haven't yet watched GLOW,
21:32
I suggest you do so and follow along as our recap and tell you
21:35
what I thought of the episode at the very end.
21:38
And if you haven't yet, check out Episode 123 where I talk
21:41
about the first season and pilot episode of GLOW.
21:43
If you want to go back and listen, episode 3 is titled
21:49
Concerned Women of America. It was directed by Kate Dennis,
21:53
who's also directed episodes of New Amsterdam, the 2018 TV
21:56
series Headers, and three episodes of The Tick, as well of
22:01
four episodes of Run. It was written by Sasha
22:05
Rothschild, who's been a producer of the show for all
22:07
three seasons of GLOW. She executive produced the Bowl
22:10
Type and executive producer on The Babysitters Club and XO
22:14
Kitty Cypnosis. Ruth connects with a fellow film
22:19
lover and help Debbie cook up APSA to appease an angry women's
22:24
group. Cherry struggles on the set of
22:26
her new show. All right, so the show, called
22:29
opens on action sequence Is Cherry Bang hitting a superhero
22:33
Landing. She is in hot pursuit of a
22:36
criminal, and she slides on the roof of a car to get the guy She
22:40
slept in the head on the hood of the car and her partner shows up
22:43
out of breath, saying she's glad that one of them is in good
22:47
shape. She takes out a pair of
22:49
handcuffs and asks Cherry if she wants to do the honors.
22:53
The thief explains that he has rights, and Chambers tells him
22:57
the only right he has now is to stay silent.
23:01
She pauses for a bit as Detective Gold is staring right
23:04
at her, and then adds remain silent.
23:08
You have the right to remain silent.
23:09
You hear cut, and the camera slowly backs away to everyone on
23:14
the set, annoyed and the director of the Chambers and
23:17
Gold show, Rick Hollander, looking rather perturbed.
23:22
Susie, the hair stylist played by Tara Copeland, goes to Cherry
23:26
to fix her hair. Cherry asks Susie if the
23:29
director liked that one, and Susie tells her he's British and
23:32
it was hard to tell. The GLOW logo appears on the
23:37
screen. The show opens back up on Glenn
23:42
Klipnick is in Sam's office with Bash and Debbie explaining to
23:46
them about the Concerned Women of America.
23:51
He tells them that they are small but power of a group, and
23:54
they feel that glow is a little bit sexual, especially for
23:57
children that might be watching. Huh.
24:06
Me. Me.
24:08
Right here. Me.
24:10
I think he's talking. Yeah, I was one of those
24:13
children that I was watching, but it wasn't sexual.
24:16
My mom just kind of, like, walked in on, you know,
24:22
something very sexual. Come on, She was just picking up
24:29
something from the ground and like, whoa.
24:32
Anyway, no, it was not sexual at all.
24:39
Just I I was grounded. But, you know, just it wasn't at
24:43
all. Oh, moving right along.
24:49
It is a little bit sexual, especially for children that
24:51
might be watching. Plus the sense of violence and
24:53
the tasteless sexuality. Again, with the sexuality.
24:56
What's wrong with it? There's nothing.
24:59
There was nothing sexual about it, he continues to read, saying
25:04
that the promotion of the cult scene on Globe can have a
25:06
lasting and dangerous effect on the youth of this country.
25:13
Sounds kind of spicy. Yes, I I yeah, Sam asked who's
25:17
promoting the occult and Devi and bash ants at the same time.
25:19
Sheila. Glenn tells him the CWA lobbies
25:23
for more wholesome content and if they don't listen in some
25:26
regard, they will both boycott the sponsors.
25:30
Sam asked. If they don't bend over, they're
25:31
going to cancel patio town. Glenn says not bend over, maybe
25:36
hunch a little bit. Everyone in the room giggles for
25:40
a little bit except for Sam, who finds a disrespectful and is
25:43
offended by this. LAN tells them this can easily
25:46
be fixed and that would be to throw in a positive message or
25:48
two showing their characters promoting Great American values
25:52
to the general public. Sam says you mean a fucking
25:55
public service announcement. Bass jumps in and says that's
26:00
great, I thought you were going to tell us to change the whole
26:02
show. No more wrestling everyone in
26:04
turtlenecks. Devi intervenes and tries to get
26:07
in characters Liberty Bell by saying she could be more than up
26:10
for the task, but changes her mind and goes back to Devi by
26:12
finishing her sentence and saying setting an example for
26:16
children. Sam says that they will get it
26:19
done. Glenn tells him that he knows he
26:21
will. Bash walks Glenn at the door as
26:24
he says good work team. Hey, the concerned women of
26:28
America, I think they might have had something to do with when I
26:32
was trying to watch it. Also, the CWA is a socially
26:36
conservative and evangelical Christian nonprofit women's
26:39
legislative action committee in the United States, headquartered
26:43
in Washington, DC Of course it is.
26:46
The CWA is involved in social and political movements through
26:49
which it aims to incorporate Christian ideology.
26:54
The group was primarily led by wealth interest.
26:58
I'm not going to mess with them. The group was founded in San
27:01
Diego, CA in 1978 by Beverly Lahaye, whose husband Timothy
27:05
Lahaye was an evangelical Christian minister and author of
27:10
The Battle for the Mine as well as co-author of the Left Behind
27:14
series. That's why again not going to
27:17
mess with that the CWA identifies itself as an Amigon,
27:20
a policy expert and activist with an anti feminist approach
27:25
to politics. No comment.
27:28
Back to the show, Sam tells the group he is not wasting today on
27:32
this Bash says that all we need now is for one of our good girls
27:36
to deliver a clear and positive message in a kick ass slogan
27:39
like the thrill can kill or users are for losers.
27:46
Debbie says personally this is a great opportunity.
27:48
If KDTV likes a spot, they can run it through the other shows
27:51
and it's Free Press for them. Sam says OK and tells Debbie
27:56
she's a producer now and she can write it up and give to him and
27:59
come in and shoot whatever pretty shit she would like to
28:02
save for 60 seconds. Debbie asks if she has a budget.
28:07
Sam says no, but she can use his typewriter.
28:11
Debbie seems excited and Sam walks out the door.
28:16
Karma's in the ring, watching over Yolanda wrestling and
28:19
giving her tips. She notices Justine coming into
28:22
the gym, upset about her first week of high school.
28:25
Jenny tells her she's supposed to hate high school and ask her
28:28
if she's ready for her bio quiz. Justine says it's tomorrow, but
28:32
she'll probably ditch. Melrose, who is on the floor
28:36
laying down, said that she would look she would like to get up to
28:39
say hi, but she is constipated and then rubs her stomach.
28:42
Wanting to know if it's clockwise or counter clockwise.
28:46
Rhonda asked if she can sing to Melrose stomach and she starts
28:49
singing. Poop, baby, poop baby, come out
28:51
in the flash. Poop baby, poop baby into the
28:54
toilet. Make a big splash, all right.
28:59
Jenny and Justine both stare at each other in disgust.
29:02
Rhonda slaps Melrose stomach sits.
29:10
Jenny tells me what Rhonda's left Melrose stomach.
29:15
Jenny tells Melrose that her grandma had a secret family
29:17
remedy and they worked every time.
29:21
Melrose sits up and is about to ask what it is, but Jenny then
29:25
says she wants something in return.
29:27
Rhonda asked what does Jenny want to return, and she tells
29:30
her that pink jacket Melrose is wearing.
29:33
Melrose says no, this is her lucky pink jacket.
29:36
Last time she wore it, Scott Baio hit on her and she made out
29:39
with her cousin. With his cousin.
29:44
Let me rephrase that She wore it last time, Melrose says.
29:49
No, this is her lucky pink jacket.
29:51
Last time she wore it, Scott Baio hit on her and she made out
29:55
with his cousin. Sam turns around and tells
29:58
everybody to shut up. They're about to film and they
30:01
can't. They can't shut up.
30:03
Then get the fuck out of the gym.
30:05
He notices Justine. He asks her how school was, to
30:08
which she gets annoyed. He yells.
30:11
At least he's asking. Outside, Ruth is grabbing a
30:16
doughnut from catering. Russell runs up to Ruth, says hi
30:20
to her, and she asks if they're shooting today or did.
30:22
He comes before the stale doughnuts.
30:25
Russell says he is there to try to ask her out on a date again.
30:28
And no one. One she will not want to say no
30:32
to. He tells her about a Ruth Gordon
30:34
Film Festival tomorrow night. Ruth says God rest her and so
30:38
salient, talented soul. Russell says it's kind of like a
30:42
West Coast memorial and he has two tickets and rumor has it
30:46
that Katherine Hepburn will be there.
30:49
Ruth says Hepburn never goes anywhere, anywhere.
30:52
But Russell says she'll do it for Ruth Gordon's ghost.
30:55
Ruth asked. How does he know he he likes
30:58
Katherine Hepburn? Russell says he's been paying
31:00
attention for to her for six weeks.
31:02
Oh, he's not stalking at all, Roach says.
31:05
He doesn't know. Dating someone at work is kind
31:08
of messy, Russell says. It can be, but it can also be
31:12
neat and compartmentalized and discreet, He says think of it
31:21
this way. Ruth Gordon died so that they
31:23
can go On this date and they should honor her ultimate
31:26
sacrifice. Ruth asked if they should
31:29
conceive A satanic child. Russell is confused by that
31:32
question. But Ruth tells him that it's her
31:34
way of saying yes. He asked and yes, he asked.
31:39
If she said yes and she says yes again, that's so freaking weird.
31:45
All right? He didn't even get the joke.
31:47
He didn't get the reference, so he's not really a Ruth Gordon
31:51
fan. And here's a reference.
31:54
Ruth Gordon Jones from October 30th, 1896 passed away August
32:01
28th, 1985. This So Season 2 is around
32:04
October, August, October, September.
32:07
Around there, Ruth Gordon Jones was an American actor, a
32:11
screenwriter, playwright. She began her career performing
32:14
on Broadway at the age 19. Known for her nasal voice and
32:18
distinctive personality, Gordon gained international recognition
32:21
and critical acclaim for film roles that continued her to her
32:25
70s and 80s. Her late work included
32:28
performance in Rosemary's Baby, hence the Satanic Child's
32:32
reference that Russell didn't even get, and in 1979 she was on
32:38
an episode of Taxi, which they will reference later on.
32:43
In addition to her acting career, Gordon wrote numerous
32:46
plays, film scripts, and books, most notably cover writing the
32:50
screenplay for the 1949 film Adam's Rib.
32:53
Gordon won an Academy Award at Prime Time, Emmy and two Golden
32:56
Globe Awards for her acting, as well as 3 Academy Award
32:59
nominations for her writing. Ruth and Russell continue
33:05
flirting until Debbie shows up in stairs at Russell, calling
33:08
him Camera Guy. Russell answers with star whose
33:12
name I haven't learned and smiles.
33:15
Debi looks up at him and down. Debi looks at him up and down
33:19
and says her name is Debi as she poured herself a drink.
33:22
He dismisses himself and walks away.
33:25
Debi says that he looks like an expert from Taxi and there's
33:28
that shout out to Taxi again for Ruth.
33:30
Gordon then says she keeps forgetting to eat as she grabs a
33:34
donut, telling Ruth that she's wearing all the hats today.
33:37
Actor, producer, and writer Debi explains that Sam and Bash asked
33:42
to conceptualize a PSA just to appease some angry women.
33:47
Ruth asks Debi if she needs help.
33:49
Debi says Yeah, sure, if she's free.
33:53
The scene opens up again in Sam's office.
33:55
Debi is about to use the typewriter, but she blows on the
33:59
keyboard, telling Ruth to blow off all the Coke from it.
34:03
Ruth tells her that that's a good thinking.
34:05
They start coming up with ideas, with Ruth saying that they
34:07
should do a good touch, bad touch scenario.
34:10
A good touch meaning a slight hug and bad touch, meaning she
34:14
grabs her own crotch. Yeah, that was weird, Devi
34:19
asked. How does that mitigate the idea
34:20
That glow is too sexy, Ruth says.
34:23
Or they could go with gonorrhea or yeast infection if you don't
34:27
pee right away, OK? Devi suggests unwanted
34:31
pregnancy. Ruth slightly uncomfortable with
34:35
that comment. Stay silent.
34:38
You know there was that unwanted pregnancy episode.
34:41
But Debbie says, like teen pregnancy, Ruth says it's a
34:45
great idea. Debbie says perfect as she tries
34:47
to use the typewriter, and she asked Ruth if she knows how to
34:50
use the typewriter. Cut to Sheila typing 50 words
34:54
per minute to Ruth and Debbie's story with a clear message about
34:57
a young high school girl whose features in jeopardy because
34:59
she's pregnant. They want to use a before and
35:01
after. Fact, before she gets pregnant,
35:03
she is with her boyfriend, who is telling her if she really
35:05
loves him, she would want to get close to him as possible.
35:10
Debbie then adds in. How can something that feels so
35:12
right be wrong? Yes, they used in that accent.
35:17
Also, I'm just yeah, whatever. They're trying to have a bra
35:21
moment. They cut to the big reveal that
35:24
this girl has a chance to save herself and say no to sex and
35:26
get that high school diploma. Sheila finishes typing
35:29
everything and hands down the script.
35:40
Hey, it's Evo. We're gonna get back to the
35:43
episode you're listening to. But first let me tell you about
35:46
Dark Freak creations. Dark Freak creations are candles
35:49
that are vibrant, colorful marble tops, amazing mouth
35:54
watering fragrances sealed by lovely braided cotton wigs.
35:58
Paper threads woven into every cotton wig for a clean,
36:02
romantic, slow and consistent burn.
36:06
Each candle's unique from the next as they are hand mixed and
36:09
hand poured right in Grass Valley, CA.
36:13
They use only coconut and soy waxes for a safer, cleaner and
36:17
longer burn time. That's almost 72 hours.
36:21
That's like binging on all 130 episodes of the podcast.
36:25
All fragrance blends have been heavily researched.
36:27
Dark recreations not only care about the look, fragrance and
36:30
quality of their candles and their other products, but also
36:33
the effects they have in their customers homes.

39:02
Next scene is on the set of Chambers and Gold.
39:04
A cherry is circling her lines from the script while her
39:07
husband Keith approaches. He asked if the emergency is
39:11
that she looks like an even sexier Whitney Houston with that
39:13
hairdo sink. Like 95.
39:17
Whitney Houston before the Super Bowl, perhaps?
39:19
I don't know. He looks around the set and says
39:21
that it looks nice. Oh no.
39:24
Was it? I forgot which song.
39:28
I just did a tech talk about it. All right, well, never mind.
39:32
It got muted. Wah wah wah.
39:36
He looks around the set and says that it looks nice.
39:38
She takes them aside and she tells them that she can't get
39:42
the lines right. She learns them and then gets in
39:45
front of the camera and she freezes.
39:46
Keith tells her to relax. It's OK.
39:49
It's going to be OK. She tells them that everybody's
39:51
mad at her. People are eyeing her and
39:53
talking about her behind her back.
39:55
She is paranoid, but asks Keith to run it by with her.
40:00
Keith agrees to do so. He looks at the line and says
40:04
she asked. Really, Keith?
40:07
Tell her. Keith tells her he has a really
40:10
good memory. Back on the set of the show,
40:14
they're filming Chambers and Gold walking around the hallway
40:16
at a police station while Cherry says one of her lines.
40:18
They beat him so bad, if it wasn't for the birthmark on his
40:21
arm, her mother wouldn't have Id'd the body.
40:25
Gold tells her not to be hard on herself.
40:27
She was just a kid and a robotic monotone, Boys Chamber says.
40:30
Still, it was her brother the day of Michael's funeral.
40:34
She vowed to become a cop today. She took a note to fight wrong
40:38
with, right? When she seen that perp today,
40:41
it all came flooding back. The director Rick calendar, you
40:47
know, Douchebaggy angrily yells. Cut.
40:51
Cher is excited that she got to say all her lines, right?
40:54
But Rick, in a condescending tone, tells her that yes, she
40:58
did. She did get her to say their
41:00
lines right and then tells the guru they're doing it all again.
41:06
Next scene is outside of the gym.
41:09
All the girls are eating from catering, trying to take a
41:11
break. Debbie appears and tells them
41:13
they will be starting a little earlier tomorrow because they're
41:15
making apsa about teen pregnancy.
41:18
A little excited there, Debbie asked Justine if she gives her a
41:21
note she can catch you miss school tomorrow.
41:24
Justine tells her she don't need a note.
41:26
She's still going to ditch this freaking bio quiz anyway.
41:29
She says fuck it, fuck the bio quiz.
41:31
I got this stuff to do with them.
41:34
Debbie Rose back inside. I already asked if teenagers are
41:38
really having sex all the time, that they have to make apsa
41:41
about it. Justine says yes, Billy and her
41:44
have sex all the time, but she's on the pill so it's fine.
41:48
Melrose asks Justine if she has sex all the time.
41:51
By all the time. What does she mean?
41:53
Justine says Most days with Billy and that's why is everyone
41:56
being so weird? Melrose says because she hasn't
42:00
had sex with anyone in weeks. They all agree that they haven't
42:04
had sex either. Yolanda says that whatever it is
42:06
contagious. She hasn't seen any Bush since
42:08
the she got this job. Artie asked her not to be so
42:12
graphic. Yolanda pauses, says she hasn't
42:16
seen any pussy since, joined the straight as Fuck All women's
42:18
Wrestling show. Is that better, and then
42:21
proceeds to flick her tongue at Artie, who seems uncomfortable.
42:26
Rhonda says she hasn't shagged anyone since Sam Carmen says she
42:29
masturbates in the shower and Maduro says is totally
42:32
unacceptable. They're on TV and other aren't
42:34
getting any except maybe the teenager.
42:38
The oh yell like they're going to riot, Melrose asked.
42:41
What are they going to do about it?
42:42
They are. They're going to get fucked.
42:46
Jerry walks into Susie's dressing room, her hair stylist,
42:50
and sits down while another person walks in and hands cherry
42:52
new pages for the script. Jerry begins to read the script
42:55
and notices they took out a few lines of from the show, so he
43:00
tells her that she is changing her look.
43:02
Cherry asks why, what's going on?
43:05
So we Susie says they're changing Cherry's look.
43:08
Cherry says they need to run this by her before they put some
43:10
toxic stuff in her hair. Susie tells her she is running
43:14
it by her right now and tells her just does the hair but she
43:18
hears a lot. She just does hair, but she
43:21
hears a lot, she told Cherry. Everyone around here wants to
43:24
change her character, and that includes her hair.
43:27
Then she wouldn't fight it, but that's just Susie.
43:31
Cherry agrees and sits down for the hair change.
43:35
Back at Jim, Devi hands Sam the script for the PSA.
43:39
Sam tells Devi that he told her to keep it simple.
43:41
What the hell is this prequel or or fantasy flashback that he
43:46
doesn't know what that is? Devi tells him.
43:49
It's going to be simple. It's going to be 10 seconds over
43:52
here, 20 seconds over there, 40 seconds in the ring, Sam says.
43:55
On paper. But it's going to take half a
43:57
day to shoot this and then ask who's playing the teenager.
44:00
Debbie says Justine. Sam asks who's going to kiss
44:03
her. Debbie points over to Bash,
44:05
who's getting his Panton done. Sam uncomfortably disagrees to
44:11
this, not wanting any of it to happen.
44:15
You know, Bash and his daughter Debbie says Don't worry, she's
44:20
safe. She's on the pill, Sam cringes,
44:25
not wanting to hear that. Also because, you know, Dad,
44:29
Dad, moment. Debbie tells Sam if he wants
44:32
them to waste another half a day for them to come up with another
44:35
version, then be her guest, Sam says.
44:37
Fine, fine, walks away. Debbie says you're welcome.
44:42
Sam goes to Russell and the other cameraman, Phil, played by
44:44
Wyatt Nash, and tells them they're going to shoot this
44:47
fast, with no fancy camera movements.
44:51
Russell says he copies loud and clear.
44:52
Sam is the boss and not the ladies.
44:55
Melrose walks up to both Russell and Phil and tells them the PSA
44:58
wrap party at the hotel later. Russell says that he has plans
45:03
tonight as he looks over Arutu over here says in smirks.
45:07
Melrose says Well she wasn't actually talking to him anyway,
45:10
but if he has some hot guy friends, send them over.
45:13
Phil says he'll be there as he's putting away equipment.
45:16
Melrose gets filled the eye as he's vibing him and walks away
45:19
and grabs her stomach, feeling the effects of Constipation
45:23
Bullshit. Debbie is standing right next to
45:27
Justine and Bash while Russell, Ruth, and Sam are directing the
45:30
PSA. Debbie says teen sex might sound
45:33
sexy, but a baby you're not ready for that really can ruin
45:36
your future. Ruth leads Russell into focusing
45:40
on Bash, giving Justine a rose but also cupping one of her
45:42
boobs. Sam yells cut and tells everyone
45:45
to move on, already getting uncomfortable with the bash as
45:47
the boyfriend in this situation again hates it.
45:52
Russell gets up from kneeling down and filming and tells her
45:54
that he's professional and discreet.
45:57
In walks Keith, who looks for Sam and tells him that Cherry is
46:00
in a bad place and that the pretentious asshole director
46:03
doesn't understand her, so she's locked up in the trailer and
46:05
doesn't want to come out. Sam says it's not his problem
46:10
anymore. Keith looks Sam in the eye and
46:13
tells him that anytime he need a cherry, she came through for
46:16
him. She taught a bunch of actresses
46:18
how to wrestle that he would look like he would knew what he
46:21
was doing. Sam asked if now he owes her.
46:25
Keith says yes. She's got a lead role and she's
46:28
about to get fired and he doesn't know how to help her.
46:30
Sam slides and agrees to help. On their way out the door, he
46:33
asked Debbie over to see the last three seconds of her
46:35
masterpiece. Debbie says yes, they got it
46:39
covered. Turn to Ruth and Russell, who
46:41
continue to flirt with each other by bumping heads.
46:44
This leads Debbie to get annoyed even more.
46:48
Yeah, Discreet, discreet and professional.
46:53
Love it? Sure, Why not?
46:56
Keith knocks on Cherry's trailer, asking her to come out.
46:58
Sam asked if she wants to talk. Cherry yells at Keith for
47:02
bringing Sam. Keith tells her that he wants to
47:05
help, asking her to come out. Cherry says she doesn't want to
47:08
come out. Oh, somebody please come out.
47:10
Keith says she doesn't have to come out, but whispers to Sam
47:13
that she needs to get the fuck out of that trailer.
47:16
Sam asked Cherry to let him in so that they can talk.
47:19
Cherry says that she doesn't want to.
47:21
She has no lines. They put all his stuff, all this
47:23
talkative stuff, in her hair, and now his scalp is on fire.
47:29
Sam asked if she can just wash it out.
47:31
Cherry opens the door to reveal that she can't wash it out.
47:34
It's permanent. Both Keith and Sam stare at
47:37
their hair and it's supposed to be a serious scene, but a guy
47:42
dressed as a rat passes by behind them and you just can't
47:46
help but laugh. Seriously, Cherry says she got
47:50
this job, so she must have done something right.
47:53
Sam and Keith both agree with her.
47:55
Cherry then says that now no one would explain to her what the
47:58
fuck she's doing wrong and storms back into her trailer.
48:03
Back at the gym, the PSA is done and being watched from bash
48:07
cupping Justine's booth to now Devi in the ring narrating it,
48:10
saying that just when Lisa's life should be the most fun and
48:13
carefree, Lisa's baby is drawing all the wonderful things her
48:17
future might hold. Lisa's in the background,
48:20
worried while Carmen is dressed as a baby, Debbie says Here
48:23
comes college Britannica gets in the ring, gets beat up by baby
48:26
Carmen who says poopy Diapy. Baby Carmen scoops up Britannica
48:30
and slams her on the mat, kicking her out of the ring.
48:33
Debbie continues. Perky bosom nice figure.
48:37
Melrose gets on the top row, waving the camera seductively.
48:41
Debbie tells the audience to say goodbye as baby Carmen says no
48:44
and splashes her into the corner.
48:47
Debbie says look, a fun party at least.
48:49
I would love to go to. The Ozone sisters mock
48:52
themselves doing air guitar and having fun in the ring.
48:55
But baby Carmen double close lines, both of them, and
48:58
airplane spins one of them knocking both of them out of the
49:01
ring. Debbie continues with Here We
49:05
Have international Travel. Baby Carmen takes away for a
49:08
spin and knocks her out of the ring as well.
49:10
Justine is in the corner crying while baby Carmen has ruined
49:13
everything and laughed at everyone she took out.
49:16
Back in Sam's office, Ruth says that is a terrifying baby.
49:20
And then we see the ending of what would have been the PSA
49:23
with Justine slapping Bash with the Rose and saying no Conrad,
49:27
she's not ready to have sex because a baby could destroy her
49:30
future. They all laugh at the ending
49:33
shot of Lisa and the rest of the girl.
49:34
GLOW Girls are graduating from high school.
49:38
Debbie says she's really proud of what they did.
49:40
Russell didn't ask if they can head out.
49:43
Debbie says she would love to redo her narration.
49:47
Russell says that they can do that tomorrow or anytime.
49:50
Debbie says he can take off and Ruth and herself can stay and
49:53
finish. Ruth turns to look at Debbie and
49:56
asks her if he doesn't. She Ruth turns to look at Debbie
50:01
and asks her if she doesn't have to go home.
50:03
Debbie says she has a babysitter for tonight so she can keep
50:06
working. She really is said.
50:08
On finishing this project, however, Debbie turns to look at
50:12
Russell and tells him that she hoped her date looks the if the
50:15
devil managed the scissor look OK one more time.
50:21
Debbie turns to look at Russell and tells him that she hoped her
50:24
date likes the if the devil managed the scissor look,
50:28
Russell looks disappointed and offended and walks out.
50:33
All right, back story if you were around the 80s and 90s in
50:36
California to then just references for you.
50:39
When I first watched this thing I didn't get it.
50:41
But the second time around I remember there was a chain of
50:43
restaurants called the Sizzler with headquarters in Mission
50:46
Viejo, CA with locations mainly in California, plus some in the
50:51
nearby states of Washington, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico,
50:54
Idaho, Utah, Oregon, and Puerto Rico.
50:57
It is known for steak, seafood and salad bar items since 2023.
51:02
Scissor restaurants outside the United States are owned by
51:04
Thailand based Minor International and are not
51:06
related to the American firm. In September 2020, Scissor USA
51:10
filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy due to COVID-19 pandemic hurting
51:13
the sales. The bankruptcy filing does not
51:16
affect the Assembly named minor national affiliate restaurants
51:18
that are located outside the United States.
51:26
Are you struggling with a lack of access to captivating
51:29
entertainment and media? Are you faced with constant
51:32
judgement and ridicule from friends and family for your
51:35
inability to respond appropriately to sensitive
51:38
situations? If this sounds like you, you
51:41
might be suffering from being emotionally dead inside, but
51:46
it's not too late to make a change.

52:18
testimonials from a few of our listeners currently undergoing
52:21
treatment. From consistent doses of 1
52:23

52:27
kept on the edge of my seat. The One Nothing Podcast comes
52:31
on. Everybody be like, shut the fuck
52:34
up. I'll be quiet, but when the
52:37
episode's over, I'll be talking again.
52:42
Oh my gosh buddy. I used to be on so many
52:45
medications for blood pressure and then I listened to 1 Nothing
52:49
Podcasts episode on Kitty Genovese, moved into an
52:52
apartment on my own and haven't needed it since.
52:55
That one really got my blood pumping.
52:58
You know, listening to 1 Nothing podcasts, I'm I'm not
53:02
constipated anymore. I'm just full of shit.
53:06

53:38
Ruth apologizes to Russell, asking him not to be mad.
53:42
He says he's not mad, he's just other things.
53:45
Ruth tells him that his job is important to her.
53:48
Russell says that except the job ended and now it's just make
53:52
believe work created by a crazy lady who clearly doesn't want
53:55
her to go home. Ruth tells him that she's
53:57
getting a divorce and it's complicated.
54:01
Yeah, damn right it's complicated.
54:04
Now tell him the truth, Russell tells Ruth.
54:06
To him. It looks like she's a really
54:08
nice person who is being taken advantage of by her friend.
54:12
Ruth is beside herself and answers back with no, she's not.
54:15
She tells him that Devi and herself are both highly
54:18
ambitious people and she's sorry if that makes him uncomfortable.
54:23
Russell, again is hurt, he says right.
54:27
Thanks for that. He tells her it's fine, she can
54:30
keep working and leaves as he heads out the door at the KDTV
54:34
station, Sam is watching playback of Cherry, last shot
54:37
that they filmed, the police station where Cherry was saying
54:39
her lines. Robotically, Cherry asked Sam
54:42
what is she going to do? Sam says it's not her fault she
54:46
wasn't trained as an actress because she's a stuntwoman and
54:49
physically the best he's never seen.
54:53
But when it comes to words and emotions, they're just not
54:55
connecting. They're just separate pieces.
54:58
And maybe with a few years of coaching and classes, she's not
55:02
there now and she's not a lead and that's why they're trying to
55:06
change her hair and cutting her lines.
55:08
They don't know how to fix her. Cherry is sad and asked if
55:12
they're going to fire her because she doesn't want to get
55:14
fired. Sam looks at her at his side and
55:17
Cherry, and the scene changes to Sam on the phone with Glenn
55:20
Klitnick and the Dushi Director Honda, saying that he knows the
55:23
conflict of interest because they're on the same network, but
55:26
he wants Cherry back because he can't Make Love without her.
55:30
Glenn asked about Chambers and Gold, supposed to be A2 hander.
55:34
Santa tells them to retool it, make it about a police detective
55:37
whose partner was really murdered in the first scene.
55:39
But she has to continue on the pledges to avenge her partner's
55:42
death and call it something like good as Gold.
55:47
Clint, Nick, and Hollander are quiet for a moment.
55:49
Hollander leans into the speakerphone and says that he
55:52
can work with that. Sam says of course he can and
55:55
hangs up calling himself a genius.
55:58
He's just happy he gets Cherry back on the show.
56:01
Next scene, Melrose is clutching her stomach, yelling.
56:04
That has a nightmare that she's still constipated.
56:06
She asked Jenny how she's going to have sex tonight, that she's
56:09
so full of shit that there's no extra room for a Dick.
56:13
She really thought adult baby Carmen was going to knock it out
56:15
of her when she splashed her. Jenny is putting on her earring
56:19
while telling Melrose that too bad she didn't take her up on
56:22
her offer on her grandma's cure. She could be having so much sex
56:26
right now, Melrose says. Fine, and tell her this about
56:31
Melrose says fine to tell her about this ancient Chinese cure
56:34
already. Jenny corrects her Cambodia.
56:37
Melrose asks if she couldn't brew her some herbs, and Jenny
56:40
says sorta. She goes to the bathroom, takes
56:43
out an enema pump. Melrose yells that it's not a
56:46
fucking sleeker cure. Enos belongs to the Jews.
56:48
Pointing herself, Jenny asks if she wants it or not.
56:52
Melro says fine, do it and pushes her into the bathroom.
56:55
While Jenny is surprised that she has to do it.
56:57
Melro lifts her robe and bends down, saying if she wants that
57:00
jacket, she's going to stick that thing in her ass and pull
57:02
the trigger. Jenny's disgusted, but says
57:07
she's a slave for fashion cut to the back of the jacket.
57:10
As the camera zooms out, we see the pool party and everyone
57:13
having fun but still following Jenny who is now wearing the
57:18
jacket. The camera catches a few men
57:21
doing cannonballs in the pool, Sheila drinking from the pool,
57:26
Carmen's squeezing a headlock on one of the guys and again back
57:28
on Jenny. She keeps walking.
57:30
Phil grabs Jenny from behind, thinking this Melrose because of
57:33
the jacket. She turns around and says oh
57:35
hey, it's you. He smell.
57:38
He smiles and tells her she's hot.
57:40
Also Jenny whispers that this jacket rocks.
57:44
Everyone's having fun. Sheila is yelling.
57:47
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go. Yolanda is dancing with Artie,
57:51
the sisters are making out with one guy and finally Melrose
57:56
makes it to the party in a Madonna inspired fancy blue
57:58
dress. She looks on as Jenny is making
58:01
out with Phil. Melrose gets upset saying that
58:05
should have been her and throws a fit back in Sam's office.
58:11
Debbie is still narrating and editing her lines.
58:15
She turns to look behind her and Ruth is born out of her mind.
58:18
Debbie is finally done and says that will be do it.
58:21
Ruth looks up and asks what time it is.
58:23
Debbie responds 10 or, I don't know, late.
58:26
Who cares? Ruth gets up and asks Debbie.
58:29
She wants to get some food and celebrate their successful
58:32
collaboration. She is excited that she got to
58:34
work with her best friend again. Debbie says it was APSA.
58:38
Carmen wore a diaper. Please don't romanticize it.
58:41
She gets up and grabs her purse and is about to walk out.
58:44
Ruth suggests they can go to Dupar.
58:46
They're open late. Debbie says she has to get home.
58:50
Ruth says she thought maybe she didn't want to go home.
58:54
Debbie says she has to let the babysitter go and she is losing
58:57
money. Every minute she stands there
58:59
talking to Ruth, who looks like her mom just yelled at her.
59:02
Debbie didn't, as in sorry she missed her date with Russell.
59:06
As she walks out the door, Ruth face drops and slightly looks
59:12
into the camera as Debbie's walking down the stairs.
59:15
The thing goes black and end credit and that's it.
59:22
That was upsetting. OK, so besides the B story,
59:25
which was Melrose and her Constipation, I thought this
59:27
episode went by really fast. It clocked in at 26 minutes and
59:32
it felt fast-paced. It felt different.
59:35
This was one was different than the other episodes.
59:39
Perhaps it had to do with the segues of one thing, one thing
59:43
after the other. The part where Ruth's offering
59:46
to help Devi and immediately turns into Ruth and Devi and
59:49
Sam's office, trying to come up with the story of the PSA but
59:51
then can't type. So cut to Sheila typing on the
59:53
typewriter. fast-paced, I loved it.
59:56
Keith checking in on Cherry and helping her with her lines and
59:59
then going straight to the hallway of the police station.
1:00:01
That was beautiful. While they're filming the PSA,
1:00:04
Keith arrived and takes Sam with him.
1:00:06
But let's continue filming the PSA.
1:00:08
And then finally, the shots of the back of the jacket after
1:00:10
Jenny helps Melrose with her Constipation.
1:00:12
It was a beautiful episode. Both the writing and directing
1:00:16
were amazing. It was fun.
1:00:18
It was funny. I mean, other than the poop
1:00:22
jokes and Carmen in the baby diaper, the show was fun.
1:00:27
I enjoyed it. Did I mention this episode went
1:00:30
by fast? Because it did.
1:00:36
All right, another episode of Glow is up.
1:00:38
Hope you come back. Next time I'm doing a bonus
1:00:41
episode, you're gonna have to listen to know what it's about,
1:00:44
but it's something I've been wanting to work on for a bit
1:00:47
since I found out we were losing Tumbre live, so hopefully you
1:00:50
get to hear that. Plus more GLOW episodes in the
1:00:53
weeks to come. Before I go, I get that
1:00:58
WrestleMania season just started.
1:01:00
Collier Rose and pointing up to the sky.
1:01:02
Probably. I'm going to get to that pretty
1:01:05
soon. I need y'all to be patient with
1:01:06
me if both Bailey and Cody. If both Bailey and Cody are
1:01:10
pointing at the WrestleMania sign, there's there is only one
1:01:13
sign that I would be pointing at and that's the 10K sign.
1:01:20
You guys don't know about that. The 10K sign to you as of this
1:01:24
episode, y'all I'm sitting at 9445 downloads.
1:01:29
Whoever listened to the podcast on the 1st of February gave me
1:01:32
an extra 70 downloads boost, so I thank you for that, whoever
1:01:35
you are. But I've been wanting to
1:01:37
celebrate this moment since last year and it's coming up. 515
1:01:42
more downloads until I get to 10K and I can point at that
1:01:45
sign. So I need your help.
