- 1:41Speaker 7: you're not going to believe this. Okay, hold on, believe
- 1:44Speaker 7: what Milan Condera is speaking at our graduation. Laurai says, oh,
- 1:50Speaker 7: Rory says, what, You're not a big Condera fan? Melon

- 1:57Speaker 7: Unbearable Lightness of Being And did you know? In nine
- 2:00Speaker 7: seventy five, Milan Kundera left his hometown of Czechoslovakia for
- 2:05Speaker 7: France for what was supposed to be a short stint,
- 2:08Speaker 7: and then did not go back. The Communist government stripped
- 2:12Speaker 7: his citizenship in nineteen seventy nine, and he ended up
- 2:15Speaker 7: becoming a French citizen in nineteen eighty one.
- 2:18Speaker 4: I don't think he was disappointed that the Communist government
- 2:20Speaker 4: stripped him of his citizenship.
- 2:22Speaker 5: It was like, good, I'll do this song because it
- 2:25Speaker 5: debunks mine. Justin Timberlakeman. Anyways, Taylor gives Kirk the Florida
- 2:31Speaker 5: Explain Kirk in a box, Miss Patty says, and what
- 2:33Speaker 5: exactly is Kirk in a box? Kirk says, I will
- 2:35Speaker 5: be suspended twenty feet above the street in a clear,
- 2:38Speaker 5: looseight box with no food or water. Laureli says, oh
- 2:42Speaker 5: like David Blaine. David Blaine is a magician and mentalist
- 2:46Speaker 5: from New York City, gaining prominence in nineteen ninety seven
- 2:48Speaker 5: when his TV special David Blaine Street Magic aired on EBC.
- 2:53Speaker 5: Did you know? He is known for his dangerous stunts,
- 2:55Speaker 5: and in two thousand and eight, he attempted to break
- 2:57Speaker 5: the Guinness World Record for whole breath holding. He succeeded
- 3:01Speaker 5: in holding his breath for seventeen minutes and four seconds,
- 3:05Speaker 5: setting a new one. Is that possible?
- 3:08Speaker 1: Oh?
- 3:08Speaker 5: I mean can you be alive?
- 3:13Speaker 1: I mean oxygen?
- 3:14Speaker 2: After that? It is alive.
- 3:16Speaker 1: So if he if he trained at altitude and his minutes,
- 3:23Speaker 1: that's crazy.
- 3:24Speaker 2: Wow, threw new lung cells? Can that happen?
- 3:28Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 3:29Speaker 4: Sure, Yeah, that's what happens when you moved out. You know,
- 3:32Speaker 4: if you move above five six thousand feet, your lungs
- 3:35Speaker 4: will generate new cells.
- 3:37Speaker 3: My brain is learning new things because of menopause. Okay,
- 3:41Speaker 3: is it my turn?
- 3:43Speaker 2: It is. It's true.
- 3:44Speaker 4: My whole brain is like like a medical show at
- 3:46Speaker 4: this point, isn't it.
- 3:47Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 3:48Speaker 3: Like Chris gets a message on his phone at Rory's
- 3:51Speaker 3: graduation party, standing next to Lorelai. Oh, it's the babies
- 3:56Speaker 3: that are checking to see if Gigi can watch an
- 3:58Speaker 3: hour of I don't think she's ready for Pussycat Dolls.
- 4:01Speaker 2: I'll be right back.
- 4:02Speaker 3: The Pussycat Dolls were a girl group founded in nineteen
- 4:05Speaker 3: ninety five in La by Robin Anton as a burlesque group.
- 4:09Speaker 3: The most famous singer was Nicole Scherzinger. They achieved success
- 4:13Speaker 3: with the singles don't You SYNDI with You and Buttons
- 4:18Speaker 3: is that putting all My button?
- 4:20Speaker 1: Baby?
- 4:22Speaker 2: And don't you.
- 4:23Speaker 5: Don't you wish your coir friend list? Huh like me?
- 4:27Speaker 2: Don't you don't you?
- 4:30Speaker 3: The group decided to take a break in twenty ten
- 4:32Speaker 3: to pursue individual projects, reunited after nearly a decade apart
- 4:36Speaker 3: in twenty nineteen and embarked on a reunion tour.
- 4:38Speaker 2: I have no memory of that either. Wow, okay, okay.
- 4:43Speaker 6: Laurai, Emily, and Richard discussed the speaker after Rory's graduation.
- 4:48Speaker 6: Laura I says, maybe it's just a cultural thing. Maybe
- 4:50Speaker 6: Milan Kundera is like the Robin Williams of the Czech Republic.
- 4:54Speaker 6: Emily says, with that voice so soporific, it was as
- 4:57Speaker 6: if you were trying to perform a mass hypnosis. Laura
- 5:00Speaker 6: I says, well, we should hurry up if we want
- 5:02Speaker 6: to get good seats to watch Rory get her diploma.
- 5:04Speaker 6: Emily says, my point is, with all the potential speakers
- 5:07Speaker 6: out there, why choose someone so dull? Laura I says,
- 5:10Speaker 6: you know, for a while Rory said they were considering
- 5:12Speaker 6: Henry Winkler. That would have been meat. Who do you
- 5:15Speaker 6: mean Henry Kissinger? Not unless he played the fawns. That
- 5:18Speaker 6: was a funny line. Robin Williams was an iconic actor
- 5:22Speaker 6: and comedian known for his improvisational skills and the wide
- 5:24Speaker 6: variety of characters he created. Henry Winkler is a distinguished
- 5:28Speaker 6: actor and is widely known for his role as Arthur
- 5:30Speaker 6: Phonsie Fonzarelli on Happy Days.
- 5:33Speaker 3: I jump in and tell you guys, something quite interesting
- 5:36Speaker 3: about Henry Winkler being mentioned with Robin Williams in this
- 5:42Speaker 3: No Sorry guy, Morgan Mindy, which is sort of what
- 5:45Speaker 3: really made Robin Williams go into you know, superstar status
- 5:52Speaker 3: was a spin off of Happy Days, and Robin Williams
- 5:57Speaker 3: scenes were all with mostly Henry Winkler and Ron Howard
- 6:03Speaker 3: in Happy Days.
- 6:04Speaker 2: So just saying, yep, just saying.
- 6:08Speaker 6: That is true. Henry Kissinger was a diplomat and political
- 6:11Speaker 6: scientist who served as the United States Secretary of State
- 6:14Speaker 6: from nineteen seventy three to nineteen seventy seven. Did you
- 6:18Speaker 6: know that while Phonsie was known for his motorcycle on
- 6:21Speaker 6: Happy Days, Henry Winkler actually only rode the bike for
- 6:23Speaker 6: about seventeen seconds. At one point, Henry was on the
- 6:27Speaker 6: sound stage on the bike, with his only job being
- 6:30Speaker 6: to rev the engine and take the bike about five feet.
- 6:32Speaker 6: He ended up crashing the cycle and never truly never
- 6:35Speaker 6: rode it again.
- 6:38Speaker 2: But let me tell you guys something. He did the
- 6:42Speaker 2: water skime.
- 6:43Speaker 3: So you know in the famous or infamous episode of
- 6:46Speaker 3: jumping the shark.
- 6:47Speaker 2: Now, they would not let him jump.
- 6:49Speaker 3: The shark because that was too dangerous, but he did
- 6:52Speaker 3: all the rest of the water skiing because he grew
- 6:55Speaker 3: up water skiing.
- 6:57Speaker 2: Come on, yes, yes, Henry Winkler.
- 7:01Speaker 3: Also, may I say for those wondering Henry Winkler's likely
- 7:07Speaker 3: And I think I've said this before. The nicest person
- 7:12Speaker 3: you will ever meet, likely.
- 7:15Speaker 1: I met somebody even nicer. Ron Howard, John Ritter.
- 7:20Speaker 3: Oh, yes, Henry Winkler's best friend.
- 7:24Speaker 2: It totally makes sense.
- 7:26Speaker 1: Just yeah.
- 7:27Speaker 6: I cried and cried when John Ritter died. It was
- 7:32Speaker 6: very awful.
- 7:33Speaker 3: He could not have been nicer. Also, but I will
- 7:35Speaker 3: say I think it's a neck and neck. I think
- 7:37Speaker 3: it's neck and neck between Ron Howard, Henry Winkler, John Ridder,
- 7:41Speaker 3: all three of whom are like great friends.
- 7:46Speaker 1: Birds of a feather, birds of a feather.
- 7:48Speaker 3: That's why all of us are such good friends, because
- 7:50Speaker 3: we're all caustic and snarky and sarcasm. Emily is having
- 8:05Speaker 3: a hard time with her faulty chair at Rory's graduation. Emily,
- 8:09Speaker 3: your chair is fine. Just don't lean, says Richard.
- 8:12Speaker 2: I have to lean.
- 8:13Speaker 3: This woman keeps rocking back and forth. It's like sitting
- 8:16Speaker 3: behind Ray Charles.
- 8:17Speaker 5: I was so messed up.
- 8:19Speaker 3: Yeah, look I understand it because Ray Charles did do
- 8:23Speaker 3: that while he was playing music, but it was it
- 8:26Speaker 3: jarred me.
- 8:27Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, yeah, you know.
- 8:29Speaker 1: He was the butt of all of those blind it
- 8:32Speaker 1: was either Stevie Wonder or Ray Charles with a butt
- 8:34Speaker 1: of all of the blind jokes when I was growing up,
- 8:39Speaker 1: And I think, you know, if you can take anything
- 8:41Speaker 1: positive from it, which is difficult, is that they were
- 8:45Speaker 1: so famous. They were so ubiquitously famous. Yeah, because they
- 8:50Speaker 1: were so talented.
- 8:51Speaker 3: So have you seen Stevie Wonder when he's driving the car,
- 8:55Speaker 3: he literally, who is that with? It's like with Ellen
- 8:58Speaker 3: Degenerous or somebody like that, and he's fully driving. Ray
- 9:03Speaker 3: Charles was a pianist and blue singer known for the
- 9:05Speaker 3: nineteen sixties hit Georgia On. I mean, he's about one
- 9:09Speaker 3: million times more than that, but.
- 9:12Speaker 2: That's all right.
- 9:12Speaker 3: Ray Charles lost his sight at the age of seven,
- 9:14Speaker 3: and doctors later suggested suggested that juvenile glaucoma had caused
- 9:19Speaker 3: his blindness. Oh god, terrible, Well on that terrible note.
- 9:24Speaker 3: That's like, we need to come up with something good
- 9:26Speaker 3: to say.
- 9:26Speaker 2: We can't end on that.
- 9:28Speaker 3: That's the second to last pop culture, second to last,
- 9:31Speaker 3: except for.
- 9:32Speaker 2: We will do pop culture with the movies.
- 9:33Speaker 3: So it's the second to last of the first run
- 9:37Speaker 3: of the series.
- 9:39Speaker 2: Blah blah blah blah.
- 9:40Speaker 1: Blah.
- 9:41Speaker 4: When did we start this podcast? Like nineteen forty three,
- 9:44Speaker 4: this thing has been running.
- 9:45Speaker 1: We start this in the early.
- 9:47Speaker 3: Forties, twenty did we start this in twenty twenty.
- 9:50Speaker 2: Or twenty twenty one, twenty one?
- 9:52Speaker 3: And I know we tell this story all the time,
- 9:54Speaker 3: but I still love why Scott got stuck with us.
- 9:59Speaker 5: Like zero dollars to pay anyone.
- 10:01Speaker 2: Else We have no money.
- 10:05Speaker 4: Yeah, but hey, that's you know, to my benefit, and
- 10:10Speaker 4: I think, yeah, the big.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Bosses, first of all, right, let me tell you another story, Scott.
- 10:16Speaker 4: I think that's why it's lasted so long is because
- 10:18Speaker 4: you guys bring such great observations and personality and great
- 10:24Speaker 4: varying personalities to the whole thing.
- 10:27Speaker 1: I love it.
- 10:27Speaker 3: It's fun another funny story. So we had to go
- 10:31Speaker 3: to like the big bosses at iHeart to be like, hey,
- 10:33Speaker 3: we want to do this Gilmore Girls show, Scott Patterson
- 10:35Speaker 3: blah blah.
- 10:36Speaker 2: And they didn't say no.
- 10:37Speaker 3: They were like, okay, yes, and like they gave us
- 10:40Speaker 3: the money we needed and they like did the deal
- 10:42Speaker 3: and the whole thing, but they definitely were like, we
- 10:46Speaker 3: don't think it's gonna be that popular. And then they
- 10:51Speaker 3: said to me, if you do this show, like they
- 10:54Speaker 3: made me take on this other show. We'll let you
- 10:58Speaker 3: do your guilt, your little Gilmore girls.
- 11:01Speaker 2: Idea write something to that effect.
