I actually feel like it's not the show still on, though.
0:15
Like, I don't think that the season has wrapped.
0:17
So usually, when Seasons from a raft.
0:20
Oh, well, the Netflix, yeah, go, come on.
0:24
What are you waiting for? Hey hey, no problem here.
0:29
Come on. On Netflix.
0:33
What's the what's the holdup? Hello and welcome to the black
0:45
ass time was with joy glass and I am backup singer to The
0:48
Cranberries. Spencer, oh my gosh, with my
0:55
co-workers, we went, we went out and we did karaoke and I almost
0:59
was like, Should I see if they have zombie on here?
1:04
Come on. I got very close to karaoke
1:10
zombie. If you want to make a bunch of
1:13
friends, you got performed that song.
1:15
So everyone knows, I mean, I think we've said this before,
1:17
but Elizabeth kills, at Zombie, by The Cranberries, we were both
1:21
pretty big cranberries fans. Yes, which is relevant this
1:26
week, we're not just talking about the Cranberries cranberry
1:29
sauce. Is super relevant.
1:31
Um, how are you Elizabeth? I'm okay, yeah, I'm okay I'm
1:38
very tired and it's just hot and like you know I like I do like
1:43
the heat but it has become a little excessive.
1:47
Yeah. Even I can admit that see, I
1:50
would offer you a cup of coffee but every time I made coffee in
1:53
my house, the power goes out. I think that's the funniest
1:57
thing ever. And but you It also complain to
2:01
your landlord and have that looked at because that's, that's
2:04
not your coffee. Maker should not be throwing out
2:06
your electricity. It's just because I have dairy
2:09
girls playing in one room, which Granite, it doesn't need to be
2:13
playing if I'm not in there. No, it doesn't my computer in
2:17
there. The podcast studio is set up.
2:19
The laptop was up. My air conditioner is running
2:22
and then I was making coffee, so it's just happens every summer.
2:27
Just blow it out. I'm just so sick.
2:29
Sick and tired of the summer. I hate it and it just makes me
2:33
so mad. Like I miss having a like living
2:37
in an apartment and having a pool.
2:39
Yeah. Those are my days.
2:40
Yeah, I miss that because I'm like without a pool or like easy
2:44
access to a beach and like the summer is like a little less
2:48
fun. See I have access to the beach,
2:52
kind of I still don't want to go because I know there's so many
2:55
people that's fair when Elizabeth and I live together.
2:59
We Had a pool at our apartment. We were out there all the time
3:04
like targeting it up too much drink I remember I cuz I like
3:13
worked guy worked constantly when we were in college.
3:16
Yeah, and I would like work a Saturday and come home and be
3:21
like I'd have tax like we're at the pool and everybody's like
3:24
half-drunk all righty and I'm like I have to do schoolwork but
3:28
I guess I'm gonna be here for the rest.
3:29
Rest of the day. It's just those are the days.
3:35
Good times, good times. I think Spencer.
3:40
What did we watch this week? Elizabeth had me.
3:44
Watch the show that I've never seen before.
3:46
Call the dairy girls and I loved it.
3:51
I loved Dairy girls. It's like, it's cute and
3:56
heartfelt and funny it. Like, it gives All the feels.
4:02
And it's like, you're like you're constantly laughing
4:04
because they just get themselves into the most ridiculous
4:06
situations. So ridiculous.
4:09
And the accents, my gosh, they are just so good.
4:13
Everything is funny in their accent.
4:16
It makes me laugh. Non-stop.
4:18
Those good Irish accents? Spencer, do you want to start us
4:22
off with a summary, of course, so Dairy girls set against the
4:27
backdrop of the Northern Ireland.
4:29
Rebels, this comedy series follows a group of friends as
4:32
they navigate, their teens in the early 1990s.
4:37
That mystery girls, if you haven't seen the first two
4:40
seasons of dairy, girls, get yourself on Netflix if you live
4:45
in the UK and have access to season 3, good for you.
4:50
Unfortunately, we do not. Netflix is withholding season 3
4:56
from us, so sorry we won't be discussing.
4:59
Things season 3 because I have zero access to it for once.
5:03
We prefer you guys don't spoil it for us.
5:06
Yeah this is your spoiler warning to not spoil season 3
5:10
for us because we want it. Yeah, I've already had a bit
5:14
spoiled because there's like zero research for dairy girls
5:18
except for the third season. Well, so whatever we do do
5:23
season 3, there will be research, but today seasons 1 &
5:26
2. There is not that there's not
5:29
Much not much at all. Let's dive into some costumes.
5:34
Yes, let's go behind the Wardrobe.
5:36
We have series Creator, Lisa Mickey, and then costume
5:42
designer, Kathy prior, her other notable work, besides Terry
5:47
girls is blue, the TV series blood lands.
5:52
She has worked in costume design for quite a while though she
5:56
worked out in the costume department on the lost city of
5:59
Z. The TV show the fall and the
6:02
line of duty. So I love we've been getting a
6:05
lot of like, newer costume designers.
6:08
Yeah, recently. And I like it cause I'm like,
6:10
what? This feels like a new generation
6:12
of costume designers like coming up and so exciting.
6:16
Yeah. I feel like they're all.
6:18
So they all have like a really fun like spin like in there's
6:21
different styles but I it's exciting.
6:24
Right and specially like Dairy girls with set in the 90s.
6:29
So Oh this early 90s going into later 90s.
6:33
It just feels so fun to like kind of you know Explorer the
6:38
years. Are we kind of grew up to at the
6:40
same time? Yeah.
6:42
It's like the 90s when I was too young to actually like remember
6:46
anything right? I wasn't exactly listening to
6:50
The Cranberries in a stroller, but I like to think that we were
6:54
I probably was because my dad really likes the cranberry that
6:59
bats. That's my dad gave me like I
7:02
think when I was like in high school he gave me, he had like
7:04
the CDs like of their collected like works up until that point
7:08
he was like here you go noise. But anyway we're going to take a
7:12
little break before we jump into season one.
7:31

8:19
free dairy? Very excited.
8:23
We haven't even talked about the show yet, really?
8:25
We haven't, we have episode one though and we are introduced to
8:31
all of our main characters in really their main costume for
8:37
this series, which is there. Catholics, Wool uniform so
8:42
adorable. Yeah, it's a really great
8:46
uniform. I like the green on them and the
8:48
Plaid, of course, it feels very Irish to me, which was, I
8:54
guessing obviously intentional by love how they kind of have
8:57
like their own personal style to it.
8:59
They at least try to style them to their own characters.
9:02
Yeah, I love that first scene where they're trying to like
9:07
rare the denim jackets instead of their voice These are her and
9:11
then don't they show up and they like change their mind because
9:14
they don't want to get in trouble.
9:15
Well, Aaron's mom makes her change, right?
9:21
And then Claire refuses to wear hers if she's, I'm not going to
9:27
be an individual on my own. It's like, yeah, that's such a
9:32
teenager thing. To say, speaking of Claire, I've
9:39
only seen Nico Coughlin and Bridget in one and two,
9:42
obviously, and I've made it clear that I am not a Penelope
9:47
fan and bridger-teton so seeing her in the show, I was in love
9:51
with her. She so great.
9:54
It just makes me actually kind of mad at Bridget and I'm like,
9:56
wow, what you've done? If that character really annoys
9:59
me because she's so great in the show, she's so funny.
10:03
She's so funny. I think part of the reason I
10:05
liked her in Fredericton is because of dairy, girl.
10:12
She's fantastic. We also, so we're just going to
10:16
run down our main characters, real quick, cuz there's just a
10:19
lot of them. It can be hard to remember.
10:22
So we have James played by Dylan Llewellyn.
10:28
Who is the only man to ever attend their all-girls Catholic
10:33
school because he is English and they were afraid.
10:36
He would be beaten up at the boys school.
10:41
For James or James. I do love, though.
10:44
How like really with the exception of like The Kill, it's
10:49
such a gender-neutral, like uniform.
10:53
Like there's no, there's no form to it.
10:55
There's no distinction, you can put it on anybody.
11:00
My favorite character, I believe, is Michelle played by
11:04
Jamie. Lee O'Donnell.
11:06
I love the attitude. She's just that one badass
11:09
chick. At the school just always
11:11
getting into trouble. Always giving all the bad ideas
11:14
which I'm, yeah. I always like, it's a good idea
11:16
because it's a bad idea. Yeah, I she's great.
11:20
She always has like, the best makeup and ear.
11:22
She always has the biggest earrings.
11:24
Yeah. Which I'm just like, dang.
11:27
I cannot have gotten away with that in high school.
11:29
Well, she's barely getting away for it to heat up.
11:35
We also have sorsha, Monica Jackson, who plays Aaron who is
11:41
just like such a typical overachiever in school.
11:46
Yes. Is trying to make it work all
11:48
the time. She's also so funny.
11:51
I love her character but probably my favorite character
11:56
is or Le played by Louisa Harlan's.
12:00
I'm sorry is wild or lie. Just doesn't make any sense.
12:08
So funny that's your favorite. Character, I would have guessed
12:12
because I feel like I would attach you to Orla or Aaron a
12:16
combination of both. Probably probably and then
12:23
Claire play by Nicola: again, just a overachiever at school.
12:29
I love her. I just love her constant panic
12:32
and anxiety. I think I just relate to Claire
12:35
a lot especially, like, post pandemic.
12:38
I feel panicked about Everything and her facial expressions.
12:43
She does allow face acting in this show.
12:45
I get it 100%. Yeah, she's just fantastic and
12:50
perfect. We also get to meet like their
12:53
entire families in this episode. But in particular we get to me,
13:02
Orla and Aaron's family because oral and Aaron are cousins.
13:06
You have Aaron's, dad Jerry Played by Tommy Tiernan.
13:13
We have oral has mother Sarah played by Kathy Kara Clarke and
13:19
then character array care. She's the reason or Le is the
13:23
way she is, and we have Mary played by Tara Lynn O'Neill.
13:30
Who is Aaron's mother and Mary is great, and where's the best
13:35
sweaters as good? Say, if, there was a costume
13:39
character in the show? It's actually kind of the
13:41
grown-ups because Mary is pulling some real like period
13:45
costumes, actually. Yeah, like my mom I think had
13:49
some of her sweaters and like the hair and then Sarah is just
13:56
like I think she doesn't realize she does this weird like 90s 80s
14:01
like high fashion hybrid for her day-to-day life.
14:05
And I'm just like, okay, okay, there's Sarah 'He and or layer
14:10
like so confused. It's almost like they're like
14:13
from the wrong family or in the wrong place, but they just
14:17
happen to be here in this house. Yeah.
14:19
And they're just not questioning it.
14:20
Yeah, we also get to meet Michelle's mom.
14:27
And James is Aunt because they are also cousins and she just
14:32
has like the best nurse's uniform.
14:34
Like, I feel like we nurses deserve to be comfy and this
14:37
doesn't love. Look comfy.
14:40
Can we get back to some version of this?
14:41
Because she just looks like so professional.
14:44
Yeah I kind of like the idea of doing like real period.
14:47
Type costumes for nurses. No reason really.
14:51
I just like nurse period costumes.
14:53
So just look so classy. Yeah.
14:55
Left a little hair piece. That's cool.
14:57
Yeah. Apparently you see I think some
15:01
nursing programs still give those out at like graduation
15:06
like one now that you mention it, I have it's not Pletely
15:10
gone, I have seen it sometimes, so not completely gone, but we
15:13
need to bring that back a little bit more.
15:17
We also have my second favorite character, sister, Michael
15:22
played by Sabine, McSweeney sister.
15:25
Michael has the most boring costumes in this entire series,
15:30
but she is the funniest person in it.
15:33
The funniest character. However, what's so funny about
15:37
her though? We'll talk about this party.
15:38
Later is Does have a very boring costume but sometimes she'll do
15:42
like extra, you know, activities?
15:45
Yes. I'll keep her headpiece on.
15:50
What do you call? Yeah, I think that's the actual
15:53
habit part of a habit. Okay, so she keeps her habit on
15:58
but she'll like, change the bottom part.
16:00
Oh gosh. What episode was that where she
16:01
like oh we're gonna get there. We're going to get there.
16:04
She comes back from like a martial arts class.
16:06
Yeah, yeah. And I do kind of like that.
16:12
She's one of the only nuns. We actually see in this, we do
16:15
get one other none in this episode, who is an opposed to
16:20
her black and white and all gray.
16:23
And I just like they have the greatest actors in this because
16:28
she barely says anything in this episode but like, just like the
16:33
all gray, then with her actions is so funny.
16:38
Yeah, it's hilarious. Maybe.
16:40
Real nuns. I don't know, maybe they can't
16:42
send a bunch of nuns. No Sabine.
16:46
She actually said she's never, she had never met a nun.
16:48
Her life before playing this role that's not intimidating or
16:53
anything. Now she is someone I was, I was
16:58
reading are listening to something, but everyone's like
17:02
is sister does sister Michael actually believe in God or was
17:06
this just like a convenient career path for her, you know,
17:09
Sighs. I kind of thought about that
17:11
too. I-it's not that she believes in
17:13
God or doesn't. I believe.
17:14
She's just like, this is also a job.
17:17
I don't think she cares what other people lately.
17:20
She's like, I'm just here from 9 to 5 and then I gotta go home
17:24
and watch TV. The Spencer.
17:27
There is one character we haven't spoken about yet.
17:30
We have Ian McKellen. Who plays Joe?
17:35
Do you know who what? Other show we know him from I've
17:40
been trying to figure it out. I know he's familiar but I can't
17:49
sell me a nice Game of Thrones. I could not put my finger on it,
17:56
but I didn't care enough to look it up.
17:57
I was like, I know this man, I didn't realize that till today.
18:02
When I was on IMDb and I think his i.d. picture I am d, picture
18:07
is barristan selmy. And I was like wait.
18:09
Hold on one second so far you see something like a slide
18:14
transition. So like slowly dissolves, like
18:17
so excited. Yeah.
18:20
So I relate a lot to Grandpa Joe.
18:23
I mean, he just like yeah, he's a family man.
18:26
He cares about his family but he also is going to complain about
18:29
everything and let you know when he's dissatisfied which is with
18:32
everything or at least everything that Jerry does.
18:36
Yeah. I love it's like He loves his
18:41
daughters with all his heart, he loves his granddaughter's with
18:44
all his heart. Cannot stand his son-in-law, who
18:48
is nothing but like the sweetest man.
18:51
It's Jerry just really gets under Jose, you know skin.
18:55
Yeah he does he does. I love how he's like always the
18:59
one carrying the baby around, though.
19:01
All like whatever he is whenever they have to go like to the
19:07
school because they've gotten in trouble for something.
19:09
And they're all there which I'm like, why are you there Grandpa
19:12
Joe with the baby? Like what you didn't just leave
19:16
him home but I think he doesn't trust Jerry.
19:19
I think that's that's what he gets on the bay because he
19:23
doesn't trust Jerry, I think. So, Joe has like this
19:27
traditional though, like, he's definitely like, you know, older
19:30
gentleman but even still kind of like put together in a sense
19:34
that he's he's going to wake up in the morning.
19:36
He's going to make sure he's bathed.
19:39
We're like A nice little shirt but yes like he's it's not like
19:43
an old man. He's just still knows how like
19:45
dress up and look proper and appropriate which probably is
19:49
what bothers him about Jerry. Not the jury's ever dressed
19:52
inappropriately but Joe's like you need a dress like this every
19:55
day. You know?
19:56
You got looks like me. Yeah, I think so.
19:59
I think so, yeah, he's definitely like that World War
20:02
Two generation where it's like you wear your shoes.
20:05
All shiny, you got your slacks, you got your button down, shirt
20:08
your hat, and your For every like every piece of clothing.
20:12
Yeah. You have it on exactly episode
20:17
2. I love episode 2 because of the
20:21
stair scene which is basically just like a 90s fashion show.
20:28
I feel like like it's like every style that was popular in the
20:35
90s. They are wearing, it's so true.
20:41
Um look it's so good. It is it is like they all like
20:46
Aaron and Michelle have the genes Claire's got like the
20:50
dress with like the T-shirt under it.
20:53
It's so funny and it looks they all look so good.
20:57
So has like almost like a rock and roll hip-hop vibe to her
21:02
like she's very influenced by music which we find out later.
21:05
You know, they all love the certain musician but like to her
21:09
She feels a little bit more Street where I guess you could
21:13
say. And like Northern, I definitely,
21:17
definitely. I also feel like Orla is already
21:21
in Bri embracing athleisure, which like, that totally was
21:28
starting in the 90s with like the kind of like the parachute e
21:31
pants and, like sweatpants, and just like an oversized shirt.
21:36
Like that's where all that started.
21:38
Yeah, Sarah takes the Take in this episode in terms of
21:42
wardrobe you know who Sarah is trying to be she is like a she
21:47
reminds me a lot of Stevie Nicks actually like Stevie Nicks 90s
21:51
says it's very kind of like Whimsical not necessarily witchy
21:55
but like Whimsical loves just like being free in nature and
22:00
has like this also kind of like Gothic Rock and Roll by were she
22:03
was like this big black choker kind of like drapey clothing.
22:09
It's really cool. I like this costume on her.
22:12
Actually, I love it. And this is where I feel like,
22:14
okay, like the choker, the like the pin stripe shirt she has on.
22:18
I'm like, I feel like that's very 90s and then she has this
22:22
like, this jacket on that's like silver and black and feels very
22:28
80s. Yeah, yeah.
22:30
I mean, she's torn between these two eras.
22:32
We've got the so three where we have the introduction of Father,
22:36
Peter played by art camp on. The swab is priest in the area.
22:45
I guess you have a crush on Father, Peter, a little bit.
22:50
Like he's attractive, like, you can't deny that, right?
22:54
They all have a crush on Father Peter, but the, you know, his
22:58
costume is very typical, you know, and sense of like a period
23:02
costume or they still kind of the father still kind of wear
23:06
this today. Yeah, there's a lot of like
23:08
research but then Then also like taking advantage of current
23:12
garments to in the show. Absolutely.
23:15
And I feel like what they do with him is because part it like
23:18
part of his whole character is that like he like keeps himself
23:21
looking very nice. So it's like I feel like they
23:24
tailored it really well. Yeah, so that he looked at like
23:28
the best he could and the hair Department like did a beautiful
23:33
job, he has great hair. He has great hair, he does, I'm
23:36
actually kind of like kind of right.
23:39
Should I bring a picture of Father?
23:41
Peter played by Art, Campion to the barber, but I'll look like
23:45
this guy from Derek. Maybe maybe you should, it,
23:48
doesn't that? Look is not for James, though,
23:52
for James. He's like just wants to be
23:56
Father Peter and it's like your hair's too curly for that.
23:59
Look James like, no, I'm like, maybe wait till I can actually
24:05
go to preschool before you, like, we're all black and a
24:09
rose. Zuri all over the place but
24:13
episode 4. We got some wild moments.
24:18
I love episode 4 and this I think this was like that but
24:23
sewed, where I really fell in love with dairy girls cuz they
24:27
have all the Ukrainian kids coming from.
24:30
Chernobyl yeah and Everyone just treats them like so bizarrely
24:37
and I love Katya. Yeah, Katya is.
24:42
She is so cool. And like, so trendy and goth and
24:46
I was like the 90s really is back because I definitely wore
24:50
something similar to her party outfit the other day.
24:55
She is just giving goth Chic, she has the choker black dress,
24:59
she has like the blacks, like slick hair, the school necklace.
25:03
She's giving like almost kind of like Evanescence.
25:06
Yeah a little bit. I also love Claire's party.
25:14
Sure. Which is just the Union Jack
25:18
because she's trying to make a political statement and
25:21
everyone's just like not the time or place Claire.
25:23
Right. That was one of my favorite
25:25
costumes. I think, from the entire series
25:27
actually it's like Claire solutely.
25:30
I'm down. It's okay.
25:31
Like you're just out of party and She always has to like take
25:35
it there. She always takes it way too far
25:39
but that's what I love about this series is like it's all
25:42
very 90s. It's all very like you know in
25:45
line with the current fashion of the time and it's like but every
25:49
now and then there's just like such a fashion piece or like a
25:53
costume Moment. Like Claire's Union, Jack.
25:56
Sure that it's hilarious. Yeah.
25:59
What's interesting about shows like this where they, you know,
26:02
take advantage of A Catholic uniform.
26:04
So to say we're that's kind of like the main costume throughout
26:07
the entire series, then you have these moments where characters
26:10
have to wear something that's not the uniform.
26:13
And I feel like costume design is really get a chance to just
26:15
really shine and I have to make something of that moment to make
26:18
it stand out and show off the personality because when they're
26:21
wearing the uniforms, it's kind of hard sometimes.
26:24
So I'm sure to constant designer saw this party scene.
26:27
I was like, oh yeah, we're gonna have some fun.
26:31
Absolutely. Absolutely.
26:32
She was also. So having fun with Mary and
26:35
Sarah who are acting like they're still in mourning for
26:39
their mother when their father brings a date home all of a
26:43
sudden two, they're like we're going to be upset about this.
26:47
Yeah, I just love how they're just like all in black holding
26:52
the picture of their mother. It's like it's hilarious.
26:55
They're literally an all black like what when did you have the
27:00
time to go do that ladies? And this poor woman?
27:03
Is so adorable and fashionable and just like, oh, your dad's
27:07
just a nice man. Yeah, I love that wrap around
27:10
her. It's so beautiful out the scarf.
27:12
Yeah. Yeah, that was and I love at the
27:14
end of the episode when Kathy is like, she is hot and you are not
27:18
dead like you go for that relationship.
27:20
You know? I love how Sarah's like suddenly
27:24
like how to snap out of her being weird era.
27:27
Don't like okay, yeah, come on, this funeral uniform.
27:29
This support my sister. Absolutely, absolutely.
27:33
It's so funny but then things get wild in episode 5 when
27:42
they're like escaping Dairy because of the Orangemen March
27:48
which this is one of the things I had to look up cuz I was like
27:52
what the hell was going on here? It's just a fraternity of
27:56
protestant men who I guess they do these marches from like it
28:02
sounds like April. All to August.
28:04
Oh nice. Yeah, there's just always noise.
28:08
Yeah. So I guess Catholic people don't
28:11
really like it. So they're trying to get out of
28:14
town but this is like just the Orangemen uniform.
28:19
I put a picture in of, like, actual Orangemen, they got them
28:24
like spot-on. Oh, I thought that was from the
28:27
show. No, that's actual Orangemen.
28:30
Oh, well, then that's pretty awesome.
28:32
Yeah, that's like it. Getting image.
28:34
I thought the pictures I was looking at are from the shell
28:37
but I really only one of them is.
28:39
Yeah, the top two are. The third one is in the corner?
28:42
It's not. Yeah, she did a really good job
28:46
on this episode but episode 6, she got to play with the
28:50
Catholic. He uniform a little bit.
28:53
Yes. Because Aaron is in charge of
28:57
the school newspaper for like a hot second.
29:00
Am I right? Yeah.
29:01
She goes kind of like, Into this journalist Vibe.
29:06
So to, like, show that she's like, kind of rolling up her
29:08
sleeves a little bit. In this episode taking off her
29:11
jacket, just looking like real, get to work because she's found
29:14
something that she actually cares about, which is pretty
29:17
rare in the show, really? I mean, yeah, our characters
29:20
don't really care about much except making trouble and music.
29:25
Yeah, but I love their, their button-down shirts in this
29:30
episode because something happens that I've been warned,
29:33
Out my entire life. But has never actually happened
29:38
to me where it's like to story points converge because they
29:42
need to put Jerry needs to pick up some photos, but doesn't have
29:46
the little receipt. Mary is like, I need everybody's
29:49
white clothing. Give me your white clothing to
29:52
wash, she's like, forcing everybody to strip down.
29:56
So she can do a full load. And then when they finally find
30:01
the receipt, it was in the Wash. It was red.
30:05
So now all of their tops and white clothes pink.
30:10
Okay. I was re watching this episode
30:12
this morning actually and I forgot and I was like, it's for
30:15
sure, pinker's at the lighting. You're so right?
30:18
And so funny, bring us up because I've been warned about
30:21
this, my, entire life to me. I've never actually seen it
30:25
happen to like the extent that we've always been warned.
30:27
Our parents just trying to scare us, I think just died.
30:31
Fastness has gotten significantly.
30:33
Nificantly better right in the last, like 20, some odd years.
30:38
So that like, this doesn't really happen anymore.
30:41
I also think because so much more of our clothes are made out
30:45
of polyester. Yeah, I think that's like cotton
30:49
probably will absorb whatever is in there polyester isn't as
30:53
likely to though, to be fair, I wear white about probably three
30:57
times a year so I'm not one to always be afraid of this but
31:02
whenever I do wash anything, A white.
31:03
I'm always like, super nervous about it.
31:06
Yeah, no, I have, I have a couple of like white tops and
31:11
they go in just all by themselves.
31:14
I also like I'll put them, I treat them very gently.
31:17
I'll usually put them in like a delicate.
31:19
Spanked, I'm just like nothing's gonna happen to my wife.
31:24
If our parents are listening, you really scared us straight on
31:27
this one. So, you did also I had a textile
31:32
teacher. I took her two quarters in a row
31:36
and she was also very like don't mix colors with your wife.
31:41
And I was like, yes ma'am. Anyway, we have a talent show
31:46
and which Orla truly is The Shining Gem of.
31:52
This is one of my favorite scenes of the entire series is
31:55
so funny because Aaron and Claire are having an argument.
32:00
Yes, it's dumb. And they decide all they come.
32:03
Um, together because they're like, that's my dick.
32:06
So, they all get up and I get on stage and support or Le and it
32:10
currently being aerobic goals, maybe cheer up a little bit.
32:14
It was so, another great part about the shirts being pink in
32:19
this episode is that Claire comes out in this episode.
32:24
Everyone finds out, she's gay and sister.
32:28
Michael is like, oh, is this part?
32:31
Are you supporting this? And this is the episode where I
32:34
really liked sister Michael because that because they're
32:38
gonna Claire wrote an anonymous paper about, you know, lesbian
32:44
in Catholic school and having to be closeted and Claire decides
32:47
to publish it. And at first sister my heels
32:50
like no, you can't. This is Catholic School.
32:52
Like, what are you doing? And then when Jenny Joyce is
32:55
like, oh my gosh, are you going to punish them sister?
32:58
She just turns around. Like she saw absolutely nothing.
33:03
And then when they're all up there, supporting or Lush, he's
33:06
like smiling a little bit to herself and I'm like, I think
33:09
order are I think sister Michael secretly loves that group.
33:14
Yeah. But will never admit it.
33:17
Yeah, she's not allowed to admit it but she's this is just a job
33:21
and she just slipped wants to support these kids.
33:23
She's just not allowed to like physically show it.
33:26
Yeah, I just I think her principles won't let her.
33:30
Yeah. But I Love or lust step aerobic
33:35
outfits, because it has that like just that very 90s, like
33:39
weird, like dancer print on it, and then like fantastic
33:44
multicolored leggings and leg warmers?
33:47
Yeah, it's, it's really 90s actually.
33:50
I feel like I remember seeing this look, like, every, like, if
33:54
you were doing anything remotely physical, like this is what you
33:57
were wearing. But with that coming together of
34:03

35:36
Ladies are back and they are gonna do a little away trip, to
35:43
make friends with the Protestant boys school.
35:47
That's a fun episode and I'm reminded by a character that we
35:51
haven't really talked about too much.
35:52
Is Jenny Joyce. I know she's the villain, but I
35:57
love Jenni. She's so funny because she's
36:00
she's so adorable. She's just really annoying
36:03
noise. She's really annoying.
36:05
She's just like like she's gonna be the perfect housewife one
36:08
day. Like she's going to be in charge
36:10
of the PTA like and everything and she's just like preparing
36:15
for that. She's over controlling of
36:19
everything like is a snitch through and through.
36:24
Yeah, we'll do whatever it takes to please sister Michael, right?
36:32
Let's dive into the stuff. Third Michelle's, orange,
36:37
jacket, her bomber jacket eyeball.
36:40
That's a good. Look, that's a good look.

Always wearing the hoop earrings, though always wearing
36:44
the hoop earrings. I love that.
36:45
They all have this friends across the barricade shirt with
36:49
the hands making the heart, but they've all really styled it and
36:55
like their own unique way. Claire has got just like this
36:59
whole, like pink and like teal Ensemble, which I was like, Yes.
37:04
Claire like you go for it. Yes, she's very cute.
37:08
James and Aaron are just like very 90s with their like
37:11
shearling lined like denim jackets.
37:14
And we also get to see a tiny little costume piece.
37:17
That's not really talked about, but they wear throughout the
37:21
rest of the season. Are there a little Rainbow pins
37:24
in support of Claire is so ho cute.
37:28
I love it so much. It's so cute and it's like, oh
37:32
they're being individuals, all Finally.
37:35
Yeah, I love this friend group. My favorite look though, was or
37:40
Lush like up in the camouflage camouflage and the Beret, like,
37:46
she's like a special forces, like survival is what I love,
37:53
how Sarah's like we went camping and I will just left her there.
37:56
She was just so happy to be in the while it's like.
38:00
Yeah, I think oral of Might belong in the wild, I'm Not
38:03
sure. But maybe we're it was so funny.
38:06
It's so funny that she does accessorize it with a bunch of
38:11
pins on like the sleeve though. Yeah, yeah.
38:14
And I'm just like, it says more head on like the little name
38:18
part of the jacket and I'm just like, where did you get this?
38:20
Orla like what the restore? Did you go to to find this?
38:24
Right? But we have the return of Father
38:28
Peter yeah which I love how much sister Cole hates Father Peter
38:35
yeah I'm kind of with her actually but Father Peter does
38:39
have this really incredible jacket.
38:43
I words it's so 90s. It has yellow, it has blue, it's
38:47
purple. There's so much happening.
38:49
It's just like wow that's a 90s Jack if I ever did see one

39:01
patches which match his like It's green like outdoorsy pants
39:07
and then he has the same t-shirt as all the kids, but still has
39:11
his dog collar on underneath on all.
39:16
And I was just like, oh my gosh, like another reason I can't wait
39:20
for season. 3 wait for season 3 is because I'm like, like how
39:23
are they going to bring Father Peter back?
39:26
Yeah, season 3 Netflix. Come on Lex.
39:29
Come on. I actually feel like it's not
39:32
the show still on, though. Like, I don't think that the
39:35
season has wrapped. So usually, when Seasons scrap
39:38
it wrapped. Oh well the Netflix ya go, come
39:42
on. What are you waiting for?
39:45
Hey, hey no, problem here, come on Netflix.
39:51
What's the, what's the holdup? There's not even a potential air
39:59
date for this. They've just been silent.
40:02
Spencer, you're my lint. You're assertive voice gives me
40:06
lucky. Yeah, it doesn't come out often
40:12
but when it does, yeah, it really hits.
40:16
Anyways, back to Dairy, girls, back to Dairy girls, we also
40:22
have the Protestant woman who's in charge, Of the boys school,
40:26
who is just the Protestant version of sister, Michael.
40:30
Yeah, but what I love about her costume is the gigantic 90s
40:33
glasses that everybody had. Their very 90s but they're kind
40:38
of chic on her. Like she really pulls that off.
40:40
Right. Her haircut like is perfect with
40:44
them. Yeah.
40:45
Like I'm like looking at hurt and looking at sister Michael
40:48
and I'm like I don't know. She's kind of has a leg up on
40:50
you. She's kind of cool.
40:52
Yeah, yeah she definitely has it together.
40:55
You know, who else has it together?
40:57
That teacher who comes in to teach their English class for a
41:02
hot second whose name? I cannot remember that.
41:05
I mean, I was going to card that teacher to that cool hot teacher
41:08
that shows for a hot minute. She brings out a bunch of cool
41:13
costumes to. I was like it is hot and she's
41:16
like definitely the new cool teacher and her costume support
41:19
it. These are like the pants I've
41:21
been looking for. Like I want those pants a knock
41:24
not quite As billowy like a little more streamlined but I've
41:28
been looking for those pants. I have found them but I cannot
41:32
spend like $300 on a pair of pants.
41:37
You can she wears like hotdogs colors though.
41:42
She wears like yellow red little bit blue.
41:46
Kind of like Captain Marvel little bit.
41:48
Yeah that motorcycle that black and red motorcycle jacket,
41:53
fantastic fabulous. I love her like all mustard
41:58
pantsuit look she has going on, so good.
42:02
Yeah, everyone remembers like having that one teacher who is
42:04
like the cool hot teacher, you know that you're like so excited
42:07
to go to are just like cool, like saying in class actually on
42:11
my history teachers was like that, I hope she's not
42:14
listening. Anyways, who knows, but we
42:21
talked about this earlier sister Michael's karate.
42:25
Yeah yeah yeah. So grab your created.
42:28
This it was so funny. I just love that she just take
42:32
off the head pieces just like it's so funny.
42:36
Gotta keep that head covered. Spencer you wild if she didn't
42:41
immodest. Exactly.
42:44
Yeah, I love this. I also love like her, like
42:48
coming in thinking, they're like robbers or something, which they
42:52
technically are the kids. Our everything they're robbers
42:56
there arsonist. They're just tyrants.
43:00
I know they're everything. Oh, but episode 3, when they're
43:07
trying to go, see the boy band is great because we just get to
43:11
see so many like random people in this episode.
43:15
Yeah, we have The Travelers who are so scary and then just like,
43:22
nah, we're just the nicest people there.
43:25
Are these gang? Yeah, they literally, I mean I
43:27
get it. I think anyone in public is
43:30
creepy and if someone talks to me that I didn't want to talk to
43:34
you, like, why are you talking to me?
43:36
Yeah, I get it but I love like this.
43:40
Like Joan Jett asked character that we see very brief.
43:43
Yes. She's just like she looks like a
43:48
rocker. Who loves classical music
43:50
though. Yeah.
43:51
Like the bandana the like the leather, vest and Just like the
43:55
white tank top. She's just like, I'm here for a
43:59
good time. She's a badass.
44:01
I agree with you. I like how we got to, like,
44:04
leave the town a little bit and go see, like other characters.
44:07
We need to see how other people, Elizabeth, exactly, exactly.
44:13
We get to see other people in episode 4.
44:16
This episode was crazy, the wedding and a funeral episode,
44:22
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah. Era.
44:26
That look, it's so funny cuz I'm tempted pick.
44:29
Oh, I love her like, Bridal. Look.
44:31
And I remember she's not getting married.
44:33
No, I legit thought in this episode, like when I first saw
44:39
it, I was like, oh my gosh, there is getting married.
44:41
Like we didn't, I like I was like kind of surprise.
44:44
I was like I didn't think she would marry the photo guy but
44:47
all right. And then the bride and her the
44:50
bride's father walk up right behind her.
44:53
Like it's the The funniest thing and like, she looks better than
44:58
the bride. Yeah, she does simply does she's
45:01
giving the full fantasy right now.
45:03
Yeah, but I love Mary's look though too, because she's
45:08
staying next to her crazy sister and I don't know.
45:11
This just gives me a Lizabeth lying, so she's very like
45:15
covered up but like, very put together as a fabulous hat.
45:20
A little scared but she's just looking real Mary.
45:24
She is Definitely is, she's like, Mary is the mother we all
45:28
had in the 90s like, well, he is some of us.
45:34
Yeah, this episode also has one of my favorite scenes.
45:38
I think this is my favorite scene from an entire series is
45:42
when they're having an argument, and I rock the boat comes on.
45:45
The girls are like, we gotta go rock the boats on and everyone
45:49
knows the Kario. I'm like, yes, how come we never
45:52
did? Yeah, I didn't know.
45:54
There was cool. Geography to that song.
45:56
I didn't know. I'm not positive that there is,
45:59
but I'm definitely going to research it after we're done
46:02
recording because I want to know it me too.
46:05
But my favorite part of this episode is one Mary tells her
46:10
aunt to drop dead and then she literally does.
46:15
Yeah, like and hurt. I mean, her, aunt looks very put
46:19
together in this, I must say, yeah, like strong 90s, Grandma
46:24
vibes. Very strong.
46:26
I loved her look it's very almost looks like flowers.
46:30
Maybe some butterfly moment. I'm not sure what's happening
46:33
here. Very 90s.
46:35
Also, do we talk about the groomsmen who's wearing like a
46:38
top hat? That's a British thing.
46:41
Is it for weddings? Yeah well yeah because I'm weird
46:45
and like watch shows about people getting married.
46:50
I was like it's a British thing was like every watching Emma.
46:53
Again like what's going on here? Yeah.
46:55
Oh, they were like full tales for weddings?
46:58
Nice. I like it.
46:59
I kind of like it. Honestly.
47:01
It is. It's very chic.
47:03
Um, but uh, four varieties funeral.
47:08
I love that Sarah's just wearing like a morning version of what
47:11
she wore to the wedding. Yeah.
47:14
Like it looks like almost the same dress, just black with
47:19
across choker necklace. Yeah, she goes from like Angels
47:23
Chic during the day and then To the funeral.
47:25
She's back to her Stevie Nicks Evanescence phibes.
47:29
Yeah, our golf game, our goth Queen.
47:34
But what is not goth, is the 1950s prom.
47:40
That's a good thing. I really need some more prom
47:43
episodes. I feel like we don't talk about
47:44
prom enough on this podcast. We don't, maybe we should just
47:47
do carry at some point. Ooh.
47:51
We're going to discuss this later but uh, I love how Jenny
47:55
and her friends are just like in these, like ridiculous singing
48:01
moment, special. Yeah, out of nowhere for no
48:04
reason. And we all have the same
48:06
reactions as the entire school. Just like, what why?
48:10
And the ring is like barbershop quartet tape, like jackets, it's
48:16
like why Jenny and I'm like the copy she wrote for the Fromm
48:20
sister, Michaels Sarita and sister.
48:22
Michael is like this is insane. You read it.
48:26
I'm not reading that but um so funny, they gained a friend who
48:34
is not around for long. No, very close.
48:36
She's a bit of a troublemaker and then Orla has another
48:40
fabulous fashion moment where she considers wearing a snowsuit
48:46
to the prom, just like the way she jumped out.
48:51
Of the fitting room, the confidence.
48:53
She has. We should all have or Le
48:55
confidence. Honestly, or is teaching us some
48:58
lessons over here because or led doesn't give a fuck.
49:02
She doesn't she doesn't like she knows who she is and is not
49:08
afraid to show that to the world.
49:11
Um, but I love, everybody's look for the prom.
49:15
I have to say, Claire looks the best.
49:18
Oh yeah. The color.
49:20
The color. Like I love how it's like these,
49:23
like triangle halter, but then with like a off the shoulder
49:27
sleeve, like it's insane combination but it really,
49:30
really works for her. I love Michelle's look because
49:35
it is just everywhere. It's you said, this is a 1950s
49:40
prom. Yeah, she is like, did you think
49:45
you were going to like a Guns and Roses prom, like it's so
49:48
funny. It's like it's supposed to be
49:50
19. 50s. But to me, it feels very 80s
49:53
Madonna. She has like it looks like bobby
49:57
pin moments like in a center of her dress.
49:59
She has safety pins pinning, her like boobs together.
50:03
Oh badass. So like she's a rocker chick
50:06
like through and through and she's not going to let some dumb
50:09
50s theme change what she's gonna wear to prom, she's not
50:15
Aaron, however, does change what she's going to wear to prom
50:18
because she gets a lovely. But You uncomfortable, prom
50:22
dress when she thinks the boy. She really likes is going to
50:26
take her. Yeah and that is just like the
50:29
saddest scene. Like it's so sad like Sarah and
50:33
Mary are just like it's he's going to come, he's going to
50:36
come. And then like, I love that Mary
50:39
calls, James and James is wearing a great Doctor Who get
50:43
up and it's just like, I'm your friend.
50:46
This is important. I'm here for you.
50:49
That's very sweet. It's so So sweet and then
50:51
errands, like, yeah, I'm gonna change into my Easter dress that
50:54
matches, or Le and aurilla. And Aaron are the only ones who
51:00
dressed appropriately for this prom, except for Jenny Joy's.
51:05
Like the perfect 1950s down. Yeah, who ends up recreating a
51:10
scene from Carrie Carrie? Oh gosh, that.
51:14
That was the best part of that and they all get in trouble even
51:17
though they were trying to like keep her from.
51:20
Yeah. Getting tomato juice all over, I
51:24
love that our friend, our friends.
51:27
I was like I want to be friends with them.
51:28
How weird I love that. The group of friends goes up to
51:31
save her even though no one could stand this girl.
51:34
No, no. It's like they're good.
51:36
They're good people at heart. They just do Insane things.
51:40
Yeah, also crazy, we get to meet James's Mom.
51:43
Finally and episodes 6. Very seek, right?
51:48
She's a traveled woman. She is she She's like she's so
51:52
confident, she loves how she looks is like I'm going to look
51:56
the best I can at all times. Terrible mother.
51:59
Yeah like not great but looks fantastic.
52:03
Yeah she's giving me like capelin set five is when she
52:06
walked in here. Yes yes hmm.
52:10
Also in this episode, I don't think I've seen this many
52:14
American flags outside of an American Fourth of July party
52:19
because Bill Clinton I forgot I was trying to remember why
52:22
there's American flags, because Bill Clinton's, they're
52:28
literally, like, I don't think I've ever seen this much like
52:31
American paraphernalia in a American TV show, right?
52:38
Solaris. And it was a good end to the
52:40
season, which brings me back to our point we made earlier
52:45
Netflix, where season 3. Hello, where is it?
52:49
It's been 30 minutes. Since we brought this up.
52:52
So yeah. Where is, where is a release
52:55
date? Where is a sliver of hope?
53:00
He need to know Netflix, I'm getting more and more upset by
53:04
the second. If you can't write.
53:08
I certainly am. I certainly am.
53:10
I've waited long enough? Yeah, I just started a show last
53:14
week and I'm already growing impatient Netflix.
53:16
Yeah, yeah, well, so we love you Netflix.
53:20
We do support Yeah, but that brings us to the end of season
53:24
2. Where James admits that he is a
53:27
dairy. Girl, we're all Dairy, girls.
53:31
We're all Dairy girls. It's so cute.
53:35
It's so cute. Spencer so cute.
53:38
I love this show. I'm so glad you made me watch
53:41
it. I've heard about the show a lot
53:42
from just like random people and I totally thought this was like
53:46
a 1950s period show. I don't know why.
53:50
Italy. Yeah.
53:51
I did not know what it was. I thought I was just like
53:52
another, like, I don't know. Then I turned it on.
53:55
I was like, what is this? Why is it cranberries playing
53:58
like? This is not what I meant I'm
54:01
wrong because the literally, the first thing you hear is a
54:05
cranberry song. And the first thing you see is a
54:07
cranberries post. Yeah, I would say, oh, I wonder
54:10
why Elizabeth pick this one and then you knew right away.
54:16
Well, Lisbeth, I read a play. Our favorite game.
54:19
Ha Spencer. I am the one costume to rule
54:25
them all. Spencer, what was your one
54:32
costume to rule them all? I've actually changed mine.
54:38
Oh yeah. Okay.
54:42
It has to be. So I wanted to say oral has ski
54:46
suit but actually, okay, it's a combination this week.
54:50
I am doing a combination of oral has Bermuda.
54:53
Triangle of looks? Because originally I was going
54:56
to pick Michelle's prom look, but no, I love that Orla wore
55:00
her Step costume her camouflage suit and she was going to wear
55:05
that ski jacket. She wears the most inappropriate
55:08
things at all times and she doesn't care at all and I love
55:13
that about her. She will wear whatever she
55:15
wants. So I think if I were going to
55:17
pick one, I would say or Liz. Step costume, she wore and
55:21
season one when they're when performed with her.
55:23
She just doesn't care. She doesn't, I love that about
55:26
her and I feel like the costume designer really just supported
55:30
her. She was like, what Whatever the
55:31
script says she gets absolutely. Absolutely, I love that.
55:37
Orla is the one costume to rule them all.
55:40
Yeah, she's just she wears them all.
55:43
She does, she does. Um, my choice is, I guess,
55:48
Orleans inspiration. I chose Sarah's wedding.
55:52
Guests. Look, Cuz it's such a like, a
55:58
red herring because it makes you think this is going to be like a
56:02
way different episode for like a couple seconds until you see the
56:07
Bride come up behind her. And then you're like oh no.
56:11
Okay. She's not getting married.
56:14
It's so funny. It's actually when I watch this
56:17
the first time I was at our friends house having drinks.
56:20
So I was already kind of like a little buzz when I was watching
56:23
this and I was like, I have to To do the podcast.
56:26
I gotta finish Terry girls. I turn on this episode.
56:29
I was like, oh my God. What did I miss like?
56:32
Sarah's game married. Am I drunk?
56:36
No, you weren't drunk. She was just inappropriately
56:40
dressed. That's so funny.
56:45
