Speaker 1: Hey, everybody.
0:11
Speaker 2: Welcome to you Girls Gone Hallmark, a bonus episode from
0:14
Speaker 2: Long Story Short the podcast I'm Megan.
0:17
Speaker 1: I'm Wendy.
0:18
Speaker 2: Today we're discussing always a More from Hallmark's Springing to
0:24
Speaker 2: Love lineup on the Hallmark Movies and Mysteries Channel, which,
0:28
Speaker 2: if you know us, this is a departure. We're pretty
0:31
Speaker 2: much Hallmark Channel regulars. We had to jump over to
0:36
Speaker 2: the Movies and Mysteries channel. This movie aired on Sunday,
0:40
Speaker 2: April third for the first time, and before we jump
0:43
Speaker 2: into our thoughts on that, I want to invite you
0:45
Speaker 2: to join our brand new Facebook group, Girls Gone Hallmark,
0:49
Speaker 2: where we're discussing all things Hallmark, the latest movies, our
0:52
Speaker 2: favorite actors, past movies that we've loved TV shows. Are
0:56
Speaker 2: you going to get Wendy and I to watch Chesapeake Shores?
0:59
Speaker 2: Which is end? So is it gonna happen?
1:02
Speaker 1: I don't think so.
1:04
Speaker 2: I would be more willing to watch that than one
1:07
Speaker 2: calls the Heart. But hop into our Facebook group and
1:09
Speaker 2: try to convince me on either. You can find it
1:12
Speaker 2: by searching Girls Gone Hamewark on Facebook, or just click
1:16
Speaker 2: the link in our show notes and it will take
1:17
Speaker 2: you right there. It's time to talk Always a Moore. Wendy,
1:21
Speaker 2: do you have a synopsis?
1:24
Speaker 1: I certainly do. As Elizabeth tries to keep her late
1:28
Speaker 1: husband's once acclaimed restaurant afloat, she's forced to work with
1:32
Speaker 1: a consultant to turn things around. He reignites her passion
1:36
Speaker 1: for baking and life itself stirs on Aracer and Tyler
1:41
Speaker 1: freaking hines.
1:45
Speaker 2: It's time for news and notes about Always Amore.
1:49
Speaker 1: You know, I couldn't find a ton of well information
1:54
Speaker 1: about this movie. I could find interviews, mm, but it
1:59
Speaker 1: was kind of like the same interview, like repeated over
2:02
Speaker 1: and over and over like they do. So I'm curious
2:07
Speaker 1: to find out what you found. But I will say
2:09
Speaker 1: starting out, this was filmed in February twenty twenty two. Again,
2:13
Speaker 1: tight turn around these spring movies. Man, That's why they
2:17
Speaker 1: didn't have any photos or anything when they started to
2:21
Speaker 1: promote this early on.
2:22
Speaker 2: It was filmed in Fort Langley, British Columbia, although it
2:25
Speaker 2: was set on Bainbridge Island in Washington, and I think
2:28
Speaker 2: they nailed it with that gloomy Pacific Northwest weather right.
2:34
Speaker 1: I was wondering if Bainbridge is a real place. I
2:36
Speaker 1: don't know if it is. I'm not familiar with Ded Washington. Okay,
2:40
Speaker 1: that's very all right to get there. Oh is it
2:43
Speaker 1: like a small little island? Yes? Oh, okay, okay.
2:49
Speaker 2: Very important to note this was written by Julie Sherman Wolf.
2:52
Speaker 2: I would go so far as to say she's our
2:55
Speaker 2: favorite writer. Is that fair?
2:57
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, I love her movies.
3:01
Speaker 2: Love Julie Sherman Wolf's movies. And she tweeted I have
3:04
Speaker 2: some more thoughts from her later, but I would like
3:06
Speaker 2: to share right now that she tweeted, Okay, so I'm
3:09
Speaker 2: gonna need to write a sequel so we can look
3:11
Speaker 2: at and listen to more Chef Antonio. So oh, obviously
3:17
Speaker 2: that's a joke, but straight from the writer's mouth her ousel,
3:20
Speaker 2: So would I would welcome a sequel to this movie?
3:24
Speaker 1: I would too, because the way they ended it I
3:27
Speaker 1: thought was real nice. Actually, as sequel could definitely bloom
3:33
Speaker 1: from this story, and it doesn't even have to have
3:36
Speaker 1: like Autumn and Tyler in it. It could be about
3:39
Speaker 1: the chef, because I actually think the chef and the
3:44
Speaker 1: friend who owns the chocolate chop should get together.
3:48
Speaker 2: Yes, maybe it can be like they do in Evergreen
3:52
Speaker 2: set in the same place our old favorites making appearance,
3:55
Speaker 2: but it's not so much about them anymore.
3:57
Speaker 1: Mm hmm, yeah, definitely.
3:59
Speaker 2: Did you know that Tyler Hines got a concussion on set?
4:02
Speaker 1: Yes? I did, which I'm kind of it didn't really
4:06
Speaker 1: say the article I read didn't really say how it happened.
4:09
Speaker 1: It said he was alone.
4:11
Speaker 2: Uh huh, that's all I know.
4:13
Speaker 1: Also, do you think he just like tripped and fell
4:17
Speaker 1: or what?
4:18
Speaker 2: Did he run smack into some equipment while I was
4:21
Speaker 2: looking at his phone walking across the set. I don't know,
4:24
Speaker 2: but apparently he did film the past couple of days
4:28
Speaker 2: with a concussion.
4:29
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what crazy, right, Yeah?
4:32
Speaker 2: And he said it's all bloody, so he must have
4:35
Speaker 2: crashed into something.
4:38
Speaker 1: I'm not laughing, like, you know, concussions are a serious thing,
4:41
Speaker 1: but I just thought it was like so like random,
4:45
Speaker 1: Like why didn't he say, like what happened? It's so
4:47
Speaker 1: vague in his uh explanation of the situation.
4:52
Speaker 2: Slipped on a banana peel?
4:56
Speaker 1: Can you imagine? Oh my goodness.
4:58
Speaker 2: We talked about this in our Spring until I've review episode.
5:00
Speaker 2: But this movie was produced by Gastronomy Road Production, which
5:04
Speaker 2: is Giada Dalarentis's production company, and according to IMDb, this
5:08
Speaker 2: is their first movie that they have produced.
5:11
Speaker 1: Well, I will say, good job, Yeah, good job.
5:15
Speaker 2: They got real lucky with the Julie Sherman Wolfe's script.
5:20
Speaker 1: And with a cast that, uh huh is appealing for Minnie.
5:27
Speaker 1: I had read a interview with Giada and People Magazine
5:33
Speaker 1: and she says many of the characters were inspired by
5:37
Speaker 1: her own loved ones, which I thought was like a
5:40
Speaker 1: weird comment because wasn't the movie written by Julie Sherman
5:45
Speaker 1: wolf So just like the production company come in and
5:49
Speaker 1: be like, oh, I see this character as this kind
5:53
Speaker 1: of person instead, Is that what happens?
5:56
Speaker 2: I don't know how much say the production company gets.
6:02
Speaker 1: Yeah, it just was weird. I was like, are we
6:04
Speaker 1: trying to steal Julie's thunder?
6:07
Speaker 2: I'm feeling vaguely protective of our good friend Julie.
6:11
Speaker 1: Yeah. Bizarre.
6:13
Speaker 2: Funny little side note. I write the names of the
6:16
Speaker 2: lead characters in all caps in my notes because we
6:18
Speaker 2: do so many of these and I can never remember
6:20
Speaker 2: anybody's name, And so my notes right now say Elizabeth
6:24
Speaker 2: and bed Bed.
6:27
Speaker 1: I see where you're going with this. I see where
6:30
Speaker 1: you're going. Do you have a first impression of this movie?
6:34
Speaker 2: Well, first, let's just say I think everybody knows this,
6:37
Speaker 2: but this movie does star Autumn Racer and Tyler Hines,
6:40
Speaker 2: two very prolific Hallmark stars. We've already seen Autumn Recer
6:43
Speaker 2: on all three Wedding Trilogy movies. I do believe this
6:46
Speaker 2: is Tyler's first movie of the year.
6:48
Speaker 1: I think you're right, but oh.
6:51
Speaker 2: He was in a number of twenty twenty one movies,
6:54
Speaker 2: including Our Favorite Christmas Movie and Unexpected Christmas.
6:58
Speaker 1: It's not the right title. I just mass, yes, it is.
7:00
Speaker 1: Good job me.
7:01
Speaker 2: Okay, my first impression of this movie is apparently I'm
7:06
Speaker 2: a Hallmark Movies and Mysteries fan.
7:07
Speaker 1: Now, okay, can I comment on that please? First of all,
7:14
Speaker 1: so many commercials for Andrew Walker's movie next week? Was
7:19
Speaker 1: it called Curious Caterer Dying for Chocolate. I was like,
7:24
Speaker 1: I'm so into it. It looks so campy and fun,
7:28
Speaker 1: like this time, I can't wait to watch it. And
7:32
Speaker 1: then I was looking at the Hallmark Movies and Mysteries page.
7:39
Speaker 1: I don't know if they have a separate app or what,
7:42
Speaker 1: but like, I was looking at their movies that they
7:44
Speaker 1: have on there, and I was like, hey, I'd watch
7:46
Speaker 1: some of these, so I I think I'm a fan too. Well.
7:52
Speaker 2: In our Facebook group, one of our Facebook members was
7:55
Speaker 2: talking about we were specifically discussing Hallmark Movies and Mysteries
7:59
Speaker 2: and he said that his favorite movie of the year
8:02
Speaker 2: is a Hallmark Movies and Mysteries movie. So I'd love
8:07
Speaker 2: it if I could remember what it was called so I.
8:09
Speaker 1: Could tell you the presence of love Thank you.
8:12
Speaker 2: I actually decided to record It's On again on April fifteenth.
8:16
Speaker 1: So did I. It was I recorded on the Friendly
8:19
Speaker 1: app because it was on over the weekend, so I
8:21
Speaker 1: still had enough time to record it. Yeah. Love that.
8:26
Speaker 2: That's one of the best features of that Friendly app
8:28
Speaker 2: is you can tap back seventy two hours and click
8:30
Speaker 2: something that's clicked to record something that's already aired totally.
8:33
Speaker 1: And this is what I love about the Facebook group
8:35
Speaker 1: is that I have this person being like, hey, you
8:37
Speaker 1: missed this movie. This is like the best one of
8:39
Speaker 1: the year, and it was on this channel, so yeah,
8:41
Speaker 1: go over and watch it. You know. That's that's what
8:44
Speaker 1: I want from the Facebook group, and it's happening. I
8:46
Speaker 1: love it, dude.
8:47
Speaker 2: What was your first impression of this movie. This is
8:50
Speaker 2: now a top two Tyler Hines movie for me. Oh interesting.
8:55
Speaker 1: I loved an Unexpected Christmas that was so fun, and
8:59
Speaker 1: I thought he was great in that and in this
9:03
Speaker 1: role was different for him, I thought, And I just
9:07
Speaker 1: loved him in it. I loved him in it.
9:10
Speaker 2: That's that's a hard cell for me.
9:12
Speaker 1: I don't know.
9:13
Speaker 2: I liked him in this too. I really liked him
9:16
Speaker 2: in Winter and Veil with Lacey h See.
9:20
Speaker 1: I know, and I'm going to talk about that. Why why?
9:23
Speaker 1: What's different about it? Okay a little bit?
9:27
Speaker 2: So what did we like about this movie?
9:30
Speaker 1: Number one? The food shots knows what she's doing when
9:34
Speaker 1: she is filming food, right, Yes, cooking the food. Hate
9:41
Speaker 1: seafood is what I was gonna say. Oh so he
9:44
Speaker 1: didn't really actually eat that scallop. It was the best
9:47
Speaker 1: ever scallop he's ever had in the entire world. He
9:49
Speaker 1: didn't actually eat it or he ate it and didn't
9:52
Speaker 1: enjoy it. Oh and the salmon and the salmon too well,
9:59
Speaker 1: you no, Bainbridge, there's a lot of seafood up there. No,
10:04
Speaker 1: I did not know he didn't like seafood. But I
10:06
Speaker 1: will say bravo to Tyler Hines and his acting skills
10:10
Speaker 1: when it comes to eating food he doesn't like. But
10:12
Speaker 1: I just thought I just thought it was like food porn.
10:16
Speaker 1: It was like so good. It was good. I was like,
10:19
Speaker 1: let me have some of Marco's dish with the linguini
10:23
Speaker 1: and the clams or whatever it was and the sundried tomatoes. See,
10:27
Speaker 1: I remember the details of the food. I thought it
10:29
Speaker 1: looked yuh me.
10:32
Speaker 2: I think it goes without saying, but Tyler Hines and
10:34
Speaker 2: On and Reser are a joy together. And we just
10:38
Speaker 2: recorded our thoughts on Just One Kiss, and I had
10:41
Speaker 2: so many notes on that movie, and I have fewer
10:44
Speaker 2: notes on this movie, and I think it's because I
10:47
Speaker 2: just was enjoying it. I think they're fun to watch
10:50
Speaker 2: on screen. I find them both very calming to watch
10:53
Speaker 2: on screen. They're just very natural together. And I, rather
10:57
Speaker 2: than sitting there and looking for every little moment meant
11:00
Speaker 2: to find something to comment on. I just enjoyed it,
11:02
Speaker 2: and I they're a good team.
11:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, and that's I also have like less
11:08
Speaker 1: notes for this movie for the same reasons. Mm hmm.
11:14
Speaker 1: I love a restaurant makeover type reality show, so this
11:17
Speaker 1: one was super hitting home for me. Like I was
11:21
Speaker 1: really waiting for like a restaurant makeover, like the interior
11:26
Speaker 1: and I they kind of addressed it at the end
11:28
Speaker 1: that they moved some tables around or whatever, but I
11:30
Speaker 1: wanted like a reveal, you know, he came and like
11:34
Speaker 1: painted it or whatever.
11:36
Speaker 2: It didn't and there's some like throwback to I can't
11:41
Speaker 2: even remember his name. What's the chef's name who dies?
11:44
Speaker 1: Marco?
11:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, I kept only saying Michael. I knew that was
11:47
Speaker 2: not the Italian chef's name. There's like a small framed
11:50
Speaker 2: photo of Michael near the mark. Oh my gosh it again. Yes,
11:56
Speaker 2: there's not Michael, an homage to Marco somewhere in the restaurant. Yeah,
12:00
Speaker 2: we didn't really get that.
12:02
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was hoping for that, but like I I know,
12:08
Speaker 1: I told you months and months ago that I had
12:11
Speaker 1: an idea for a Hallmark movie that was very similar
12:14
Speaker 1: to this, Yes, where somebody came in and then they
12:18
Speaker 1: like helped with their failing business and fell in love.
12:24
Speaker 1: I don't think I told it on.
12:26
Speaker 2: Air, no, So, but anyway, do you think a restaurant
12:31
Speaker 2: fixer exists?
12:33
Speaker 1: Yeah? His name is Gordon Ramsey. Yes, I do. I definitely,
12:38
Speaker 1: I definitely think a fixer exists. Yes, don't you.
12:41
Speaker 2: Sure there's a consultant for everything?
12:44
Speaker 1: Yeah? Of course, of course.
12:46
Speaker 2: Hey, I liked Nana and I liked her sweet little lines.
12:49
Speaker 2: She's like she's talking about where she doesn't intervene, and
12:52
Speaker 2: she's like pretty good for a mother in law.
12:53
Speaker 1: Huh oh, Yeah, that was funny.
12:56
Speaker 2: I just thought she was sweet. And she was in
12:58
Speaker 2: a position where her head passed, and of course that
13:03
Speaker 2: is a hard thing to live with. But she was
13:05
Speaker 2: just so loving towards Elizabeth and supportive, and I loved her.
13:12
Speaker 1: Yeah, Nana came in ate dinner at the restaurant every
13:15
Speaker 1: single night by herself, and it was misso said, not
13:18
Speaker 1: every single night. I mean they had Monday nights at
13:20
Speaker 1: at what's her name Elizabeth's house, which which can I
13:25
Speaker 1: say they made the chef cook.
13:27
Speaker 2: I was gonna say the same thing when she said,
13:31
Speaker 2: I host Monday night dinner. And then they walk in
13:34
Speaker 2: and exactly that the chef is cooking dinner.
13:37
Speaker 1: You're not hosting, you know, change the location and he
13:42
Speaker 1: cooks Italian food. Like I'm like, can you give it
13:46
Speaker 1: for these people? My gosh, give them a night off
13:49
Speaker 1: get a taco guy like come off right? Yeah, I
13:54
Speaker 1: thought that was funny. Uh the end, Well, okay, first
13:59
Speaker 1: of all, well, this is why I liked Tyler Hines's
14:03
Speaker 1: character so much in this movie is because he didn't
14:05
Speaker 1: start out as a jerk. And in Winter and Veil,
14:09
Speaker 1: he starts out as a real jerk. Uh huh, fair enough,
14:12
Speaker 1: and then he comes back around this one. He's just
14:15
Speaker 1: a nice guy from go uh huh. And I thought
14:18
Speaker 1: he was just lovely and firm with his like you know,
14:22
Speaker 1: business or whatever. But then he was like empathetic the
14:25
Speaker 1: entire time. I just he was so likable. That's what
14:32
Speaker 1: made me love him so much.
14:34
Speaker 2: Yes, their conflict came after they met, but not, You're right,
14:40
Speaker 2: he was lovely the entire time.
14:43
Speaker 1: And then, finally for me, the end scene where you know,
14:47
Speaker 1: Elizabeth thinks he's left town, which like, what a bad move, dude.
14:52
Speaker 1: You don't just bounce. You gotta like say goodbye to
14:54
Speaker 1: the people that you know. But I know why he
14:57
Speaker 1: was leaving because he overheard her say like to banker,
15:00
Speaker 1: yeah I got this, It's me from here on out,
15:03
Speaker 1: and so he's like, well, I'm done here, so I'll
15:05
Speaker 1: leave and then that was just very typical hamarky stuff.
15:10
Speaker 1: But she thinks he's gone, and then they see each
15:13
Speaker 1: other and the girl was playing like the guitar and
15:18
Speaker 1: the background and yes, and and he tells her like
15:23
Speaker 1: you know, I was engaged. And the reason that ended
15:26
Speaker 1: is because she died. And I just cried. I literally
15:31
Speaker 1: cried watching this. I thought he was so great in
15:35
Speaker 1: this scene. Like, I thought he was emotional. It wasn't
15:37
Speaker 1: just like delivering the line. It was it was heartfelt.
15:41
Speaker 1: I loved it well.
15:43
Speaker 2: I also read that Tyler Hines got some news that
15:47
Speaker 2: someone close to him passed away during the filming of
15:49
Speaker 2: this movie. Oh, and I I read it secondhand. I
15:53
Speaker 2: read it via a tweet, but they had read, seen
15:56
Speaker 2: or heard an interview with him where he mentioned that, Oh,
16:00
Speaker 2: he was also dealing with that, so that informed some
16:04
Speaker 2: of his acting choices.
16:05
Speaker 1: I believe. Ah, it was good.
16:08
Speaker 2: It was good with that almost final scene in mine
16:13
Speaker 2: can be transitioned to what we wished for.
16:15
Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, go ahead.
16:17
Speaker 2: So I only have one and it's as you mentioned,
16:20
Speaker 2: it's the scene with the banker and look, Tyler, you
16:23
Speaker 2: are here because she's trying to save her restaurant. You know,
16:27
Speaker 2: she needs to get this loan in order to be
16:30
Speaker 2: able to buy out this dude who's sending her up
16:33
Speaker 2: the river basically, And so when she's speaking to someone
16:37
Speaker 2: confidently and saying I can handle this, it seems like
16:42
Speaker 2: of all people, he should have stuck it out to
16:46
Speaker 2: hear the conversation that comes after that that she has
16:48
Speaker 2: with him. Absolutely just bounces, yeah, guess she doesn't need
16:54
Speaker 2: me anymore. Bye, dumb. And he has these relationships with everybody.
16:59
Speaker 2: I don't think that was true to his character that
17:02
Speaker 2: he wouldn't even say goodbye to everybody else.
17:06
Speaker 1: He did say goodbye to Anna. He's the one who
17:09
Speaker 1: told she's She's the one who told Elizabeth that he
17:12
Speaker 1: had left.
17:13
Speaker 2: I think that even if he was mad, that he
17:14
Speaker 2: would just not even say, like, well, it was nice
17:16
Speaker 2: goodbye to Elizabeth.
17:19
Speaker 1: He wouldn't. Yeah, it totally was. I thought it sounded
17:25
Speaker 1: a little bit desperate at one point. It's it's that
17:29
Speaker 1: scene again where they're talking and the girl in the ukulele,
17:31
Speaker 1: and she just keeps going like, tell me what you want,
17:34
Speaker 1: tell me what you want, And I was like, no,
17:37
Speaker 1: You're like, sounds so desperate right now, Like just look
17:41
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, You know, like when girls
17:43
Speaker 1: like Chase after dudes and there and she wants him
17:46
Speaker 1: to say something in particular like I watch you, but
17:52
Speaker 1: you know, and I mean she eventually got it, but
17:54
Speaker 1: I just was like stop that, like stop like begging
17:58
Speaker 1: this dude, Like no, stop it. Anything else you wish for,
18:03
Speaker 1: because I have one more tendy little one, go for it.
18:07
Speaker 1: I wanted to brush Tyler's baby bangs to decide the
18:10
Speaker 1: entire time. This was not my favorite hairstyle on him,
18:14
Speaker 1: and I think I would take the long hair over
18:18
Speaker 1: this outdiated Caesar haircut for sure.
18:22
Speaker 2: Even if he had taken this and like squish it
18:25
Speaker 2: up a little bit the way we used to get
18:26
Speaker 2: five years ago, just like a little huge in front,
18:29
Speaker 2: just a little something, yeah, tiny little FAUXHOWK I would
18:32
Speaker 2: have preferred over the bangs.
18:35
Speaker 1: I agree, I do. I did not like that taste
18:38
Speaker 1: it so pretty though, but yes, for sure. And his
18:42
Speaker 1: wardrobe in this movie reminded me a lot of when
18:45
Speaker 1: he was in Unreal, when he played that bachelor and
18:52
Speaker 1: Unreal it was very like uh front tuck T shirt,
18:57
Speaker 1: you know, v neck. He wore a lot of jewelry.
19:00
Speaker 1: I don't know if you'd noticed that. I didn't one either. Yeah. Anyway, okay,
19:05
Speaker 1: it's time for did you see that? I have a
19:09
Speaker 1: few me too. My first one is there, why is
19:13
Speaker 1: there so much fake ivy all over the restaurant in
19:15
Speaker 1: her house? Like is this in an Italian aesthetic? Like
19:19
Speaker 1: I don't get it, Like I'm surprised they didn't have
19:21
Speaker 1: like bread baskets and like wine bottles. But you know
19:24
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about, like.
19:25
Speaker 2: This one Italian movie on the nose.
19:31
Speaker 1: Yeh, don't forget it. She's like, my restaurant and my
19:36
Speaker 1: house look identical. No, Okay.
19:41
Speaker 2: One of my favorite scenes, and I have some backstory
19:44
Speaker 2: on it, is Ben buys Elizabeth coffee and he puts
19:49
Speaker 2: the name Cuppy on the cup.
19:52
Speaker 1: Cuppy. Wait you missed this. I totally did. Go ahead.
19:56
Speaker 2: They have a whole conversation. They're walking and she's like,
19:58
Speaker 2: I can't believe you put that name on the cup.
19:59
Speaker 2: And they turn around and says cuppy. He goes, they
20:01
Speaker 2: asked for a name for the cup. She goes, I
20:02
Speaker 2: would have said Steven, So he named the cup cuppy.
20:06
Speaker 2: But my favorite part about this is that Julie Sherman Wolf.
20:10
Speaker 2: In real life, her husband did that in a Starbucks
20:12
Speaker 2: ten years ago and everybody cracked up, and she said
20:16
Speaker 2: she's been dying to find a time to put this
20:18
Speaker 2: in the movie.
20:19
Speaker 1: Oh I love it? Did she tweet that she did.
20:22
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I love that. That's funny. No, I don't,
20:26
Speaker 1: like you know, I've watched these movies not full at
20:29
Speaker 1: one hundred percent, but uh no, I totally miss that.
20:33
Speaker 1: That's really funny story.
20:35
Speaker 2: I honestly, that just tickles me so much. Name for
20:38
Speaker 2: the cup cuppy, Come on, I love it.
20:40
Speaker 1: Miss It's very funny, very funny. I'm sure Starbucks thinks
20:45
Speaker 1: it's super funny too when they get that all those
20:48
Speaker 1: I know, I know, Yeah, yeah, Okay, I have a question.
20:53
Speaker 1: Do you ever break the spaghetti noodles before you put
20:55
Speaker 1: them in the pot to boil them? I have.
21:01
Speaker 2: It's hard for them to eat a long noodle me too.
21:05
Speaker 1: I mean, like just last week I did it. So
21:08
Speaker 1: are you not allowed to do that? Is that?
21:10
Speaker 2: Like I knew you weren't supposed to?
21:13
Speaker 1: But well says who why?
21:15
Speaker 2: What difference does it make Italians?
21:17
Speaker 1: I don't know?
21:17
Speaker 2: But also I know that like I grew up in
21:20
Speaker 2: a family that would cut their spaghetti, Like if we
21:23
Speaker 2: gave us a twirler, they were cutters. So we're just
21:27
Speaker 2: doing it wrong across the board. Definitely, my mom broke
21:31
Speaker 2: spaghetti noodles. I've broken a spaghetti noodle in my day.
21:36
Speaker 1: I just yeah, it's just funny. You know, we made
21:41
Speaker 1: a video. This is such a sign up. But we
21:43
Speaker 1: made a video years and years ago and we were
21:45
Speaker 1: testing a perfume and we had rubbed our wrists together,
21:49
Speaker 1: which apparently is a huge, huge no no when you
21:54
Speaker 1: are applying perfume. So I'm just wondering, like, are people
21:59
Speaker 1: gonna like I need the emails tell me why you
22:02
Speaker 1: don't break the spaghetti noodle before you cook it.
22:05
Speaker 2: Well, that also has a backstory in Julie Shermanwell's life.
22:08
Speaker 2: She was dating someone, she broke the spaghetti noodles and
22:11
Speaker 2: they broke up two weeks later.
22:12
Speaker 1: So because of broken spaghetti.
22:16
Speaker 2: I don't know that they were related, but that was
22:18
Speaker 2: the timeline too.
22:19
Speaker 1: Funny.
22:20
Speaker 2: Did you notice that the cookbook she's using is a
22:22
Speaker 2: Jiada cookbook? I know I did it like, oh, Giada's
22:26
Speaker 2: Home Cooking or something across the cover wasted opportunity here too.
22:30
Speaker 1: They should have had Giada as one of the hundred agree?
22:35
Speaker 1: Why was she not pass as a judge? Yeah? That
22:39
Speaker 1: was so dumb. What a waste, I know. And then
22:43
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, is this judge somebody like who
22:45
Speaker 1: we're supposed to know? Like they kind of you know,
22:49
Speaker 1: talked her up a little bit. But was she just
22:51
Speaker 1: a regular actress or was this like a real person?
22:54
Speaker 2: Good question, I don't know. I did feel like the
22:57
Speaker 2: chef whose burner he uses oh uh huh uh uh
23:01
Speaker 2: huh felt like an actual chef to me. I was like,
23:04
Speaker 2: for something about his like mannerisms, I'm like, he's either
23:06
Speaker 2: a great chef actor or like maybe he's a real chef.
23:09
Speaker 2: He felt like a chef to me. Vibes think you
23:12
Speaker 2: for reminding me of this scene because.
23:16
Speaker 1: The the chef's burner goes out right and everybody's like
23:20
Speaker 1: standing around and freaking Tyler Hines. Ben charges into like
23:26
Speaker 1: the cooking era. He's like, what's the problem over here?
23:29
Speaker 1: Like I'm like, dude, step down, Will Smith like you
23:34
Speaker 1: know what I mean? I was like, and then he's
23:37
Speaker 1: like to the other chef, He's like, Hi, I'm Ben,
23:40
Speaker 1: And then like tells him in twenty seconds why they
23:43
Speaker 1: desperately need to use his burner because they got a
23:46
Speaker 1: lot on the line here. Like I was, like, what
23:49
Speaker 1: is happening? The cooking competition would not have extra burners.
23:54
Speaker 2: I think that's not on them that the cooking competition
23:58
Speaker 2: provided burner goes out. Every one has the same equipment,
24:01
Speaker 2: So doesn't it like that would disqualify them?
24:04
Speaker 1: I agree? It was just so funny though, And then
24:08
Speaker 1: they ended The other chef ended up winning, and his
24:11
Speaker 1: restaurant was called chop Sticks, No.
24:14
Speaker 2: Chop and stick it I haven't written down.
24:20
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I thought it was just chop sticks
24:23
Speaker 1: with like a little image in the middle. Oh, that's funny,
24:26
Speaker 1: chop and stick. I love it.
24:31
Speaker 2: One last, when they're sitting at the night off Monday
24:35
Speaker 2: night dinner, which is actually a forced work night by
24:37
Speaker 2: the way, but again they say benzato, which I don't
24:41
Speaker 2: know what it means, like bon apetit. I don't actually
24:44
Speaker 2: remember what it means. But apparently Julie Shermanwolf named the
24:49
Speaker 2: character Ben just so she could make the Ben Fatso joke.
24:53
Speaker 1: Oh really, Oh that's funny. Okay, that's all I got.
24:59
Speaker 2: Okay, deal Are you ready to rate this movie?
25:03
Speaker 1: I sure am.
25:04
