• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Can you tell me what you think it's going to
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: happen in what this episode is about models and mortals?
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: I guess it's too early for plot lines to continue,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: is it big has already been introduced? I'm thinking too
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: much into this, Okay. I think that models they're going
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: to discuss dating models and how attractive if if that's
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: too much if you're dating a model, and like if
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: there's some kind of brain relationships. Okay, yeah, I think
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: they're going to have a conversation about like models and
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: dating some of us. Two you think it's too pretty
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: for you or it is like too pretty? And then
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: the mortals part, m hmm, somebody experience his heartbreak? Okay,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: as we can get I think a lot better at
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: these is when I get Yeah, but right now, like
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: the mottles of mortals, unless you're talking about like Donna's
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: and gods and hercules. Yes, I love it, um And
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: if we find some really entertaining parts, and if you
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: all are interested, we may do a really bad reading
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: of some of these episodes. I mean, there's definitely some
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: good bits in here. And you remember this one, okay,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, here we go. Ready. Yes, Gabriel mocked us
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: in this one. Who I had a huge question because
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: he was like on a lot of romantic comedies. I
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: think he was on suits. Oh okay, okay, And we're
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: in with the intro, Yes, and we're doing a very
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: sad dance, but joyous sad. Are you saying I'm a
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: sad dancer? No? No, it may not be wrong. You
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: can't bring around anymore these so called models. Neck it's
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: too deprived. I don't know if I've never met a
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: person who would tell someone they can't bring somebody to
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: an event, no matter what. Yeah, have you ever had
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: that happened to you? I've had. I've had friend groups
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: splinter and fracture, for sure, and it usually wasn't like
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: you can't, but it was heavily applied. Please do not
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: need this. I have had people I wish i'd been like,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: please don't bring them around. I never had the courage
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to do that. What I want to know is when
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: did all the men get together and decide that they
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: would only get it up for giraffes with big breaths.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Miranda has a little too abrupt on that one. I
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: hate my thighs. Oh, come on, I can't even open
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: a magazine without thinking dies, dies Dies. Well, I'll take
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: your thighs and raise you a chin. This is very familiar.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: We all do this. What come on? I happen to
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: love the way I thought, and this is where I
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: do love. At first, at first I was very taken aback.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: But the fact that Samantha just is quiet, and when
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: they wait for her to say something de pervating about herself,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: she's like, what I like the way I look? I
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: love it. Yeah that's awesome. So you're saying it's easy
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: to meet them, No, not so easy. The trick is
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: you got to treat them like the regular girls. You've
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: got to be able to roll into a super sexist
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: this conversation. Conversation is very sexist. It's about dogs and things.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: You're calling women things things. Yeah, well they are things beautiful.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Shouldn't you be spending the night with some girl from
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the show. Never date models. I think they're stupid. Have
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: you ever had a one night stand? No? I only
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: tried the one time, and yeah I had a one
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: night stand. It wasn't purposeful, but I was super embarrassed.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: So I've never talked to him again, ghosted real hard.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Did he try to contact you? Yeah? Yeah, I think
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: he told me had poems? Oh no, I mean I
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: probably disappeared. Yeah, the poem part wasn't that preacked me out.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: It was just everything else. But he was one of
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: those what do you want to be when you grew up?
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: I'd like to move back to Iowa and have kids,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: to be a good old Iowa boy. He's just a
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: city boy. No way, he's just a cont boy. It's
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: about to say I got that wrong. You've been in
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: You did grow up in a very small town. But
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: to be fair, it probably is. If you know anything
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: about my hometown. We would go to Kanton, Georgia, which
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: people still don't know, and that was a city to
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: me right. Mine was Gainesville, Georgia, and then Dawsonville, Georgia
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: actually got big enough. Don't you want to go out
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: with a girl your own age? It's got nothing to
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: do with age. I think you're luminous, Yoda, luminous be Zoe.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: None of that's the reference here. A Star Wars reference
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: is a Star Wars reference. But the thing is this,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: after a while, you just want to be with the
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: one that makes you laugh. After a while, you just
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: want to be with the one that makes you laugh.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: Apparently models can't be funny, and you can't be a
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: model if you're funny. Right, Okay, see you. So he
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: stalks her at this coffee shop that she told him
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: that's where she she writes sometimes. That was part of that,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: to tell her two sentences to walk away. Yeah, I
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: always find it so interesting and shows like this, like
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: how did you know she was there? M She said,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: sometimes she's there. So he went and stalked her missing
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: New York Times and she happened to be there. Perhaps
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: that model hasn't left her apartment yet and she had
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: to go. All right, you did it. We did episode two. However,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: we did so you were halfway right, So I'll give
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: you a half credit. Thank you, thank you, And do
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: talk about the model standard. Here We do see a
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: lot of things that if it was portrayed today, they
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: would get a lot of help for it, especially for
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: like sweeping it under the rug, the way they talk
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: about women in general, the way they talk about models,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: because that's such a stereotype played in so deeply that
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: it's like oh no h. And also it was one
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: of those putting down women in order to feel better
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: about yourself moment that you're like why right, yeah, and
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: the binary we discussed so yeah, yeah, but it's it's
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: still it is interesting to me. I keep trying to
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: imagine watching this was it. I would be curious at
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: how much of like a breakdown of time they spend
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: together versus like when they're off on their own separate adventures.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: So it is interesting because you do get to see
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: all the perspectives and I appreciate that for sure, because
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: you do have a lot of different tales to tell,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: and we didn't see much of Charlotte's. I just realized
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: that she wasn't really a big part of this conversation,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: but she will come back to the whole hating her
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: thighs moments we do see her do that. This episode
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: is one of the more cringe e episodes to me
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: because of things like that, I'm like, no, um, But
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: I do also love kind of the interactions that they
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: have and trying to understand a little bit of each other.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Let's say that very loosely. I also love Sam's perspective
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: of herself and I'm like, I want to do that.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: I want to be able to exude that maybe one day,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: maybe I'm getting closer. I'm getting closer, but there's definitely
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: still like I'm going to need to change this and
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: this and this about myself. But overall, there you go.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: So tell me which one was a better episode? This one?
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: I'm the first one. We're gonna start do rankings. I
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: guess I liked the first one better, but it's tough
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: to I mean, I can and it's kind of like
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: the I've been commenting on this whole time. You can
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: tell these conversations are meant to stir up, like the
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: kind of talk that gets people going, right, how could
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: you like, would you damn, what's your celebrity? You would
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: have like they're meant to do that, And so I think,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: you know, in the beginning, they're probably they're still filling
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: out there, trying to get people talking about it, but
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: also still filling things out. And so it's interesting. I'm
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: excited for like when I reached the point when I
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: know that characters really well and I could just kind
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: of be like, okay, okay, you know I'm invested in
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: I know, like who's going to do what? Or I
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: have a better idea of the shenanigans they might get into. Oh,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: I anticipate a lot of shanning is. But I did
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: really enjoy even though it was problematic in the sense
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: they were, you know, talking how about parts they didn't like.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: I did like that scene where they were eating together
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: and just talking like that. That's probably my favorite. That
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: was very real moment. It's very real, like not one
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: of this or how you feel about that. To me,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: this is not just a girl thing. It's just the
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: overall insecurity of trying to figure out the entirety of
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: comparing yourself and what fills damaging and what doesn't to
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: have at least one character to be like non selling
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: myself again, very like, uh, that's a good changeup. I
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: like that. And I think originally again, like I said,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: I was taken aback. I was like, You're not supposed
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: to say that as a woman. I'm supposed to be
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: okay with what you look like and to have that
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: now and like hindsight is like, God, I wish I'd
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: learned that for myself. But all that to say, and
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: there you go. We are finished with episode two and
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: we hope we haven't bored you, and yeah, let us
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: know what you think, let us know what your opinions
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: are and how you saw this. Maybe it's a little
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: different view. We love that. Yes, well this has been
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: so fun. It's been so cool to to see you

  Speaker 1: enjoying this. UM, maybe watching along definitely let us know
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: if there's something we should be keeping track of or
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: like fun counts. We could do fun games, we could
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: do maybe we'll do watch events. UM. All of these
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: are options. And also don't worry like we're not. It's
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: just a fun eventually very long segment we're testing, but
