• 1:50
  Speaker 2: totally totally kidding. I am in this movie for all
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: of ten or fifteen seconds. But it is such a
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: fun scene. What is Ben a movie? The movie is
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: called The Accountant Too. Thank you for getting on.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Yes, I love that movie. I mean I love The
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Accountant one, so I cannot wait to see Accountant two.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: It's real fun. And The Accountant to Ben Affleck plays
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: this character Christian Wolf and accountant who's also a hit man.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Who doesn't love that premise?
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, come on, it's like straight out of gross
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Playing Garden Society.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: It is. And he decides in The Accountant Too that
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: he needs to have a love life, so he goes
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: to a speed dating festival, the Boise, Idaho Romance Festival.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, no, okay.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: I'm one of the women who speed dates him. But
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: as you know, he's on the spectrum, so he has
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: a really hard time dating and the scene is very funny.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: It's not making fun of people who are on the
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: spectrum at all. It's more he rigs the whole system
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: because he knows. He's so smart. He knows if he
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: puts words on his profile like danger, like real, all
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: these fun keywords, that women will line up and want
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: to date him. And sure enough, it's just tons of
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: women who want to date him. But then when we
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: sit down and meet him, he's so boring and a
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: terrible conversation.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Is oh great, okay, and so really, what is your character? Like,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: what's your character's name and what's she like?
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm Annie, and what we got to do a
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: lot of improv I got to give a shout out
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: to Gavin O'Connor, the director, because my character is there.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: She's a you know, my age, she's middle forties and
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: she is single and wants to have kids. Okay, and
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: he Ben Affleck as Christian Wolf the accountant says that
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: that's statistically improbable and then begin to crush my dreams
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: with how improbable it is to be mid forties and
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: get pregnant. And there was a lot of money mind
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: or it was just a hysterical it was. I mean,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: I think Gavin probably cut it for time, but it
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: was so funny with him talking to me about the
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: quality of my eggs.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Oh my god.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: No, it was great.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Yea, So so you said a lot hit the cutting
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: room floor, so you how like, how long did were
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: you rolling film for? Would you say?
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: I would say about twenty minutes. They let us do
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: improv It was such a ball that it was just
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: oh my gosh. And I will say Ben Affleck was
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: a riot to improvise with as this character. He was
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: so funny and in between takes he would just be
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: cracking me up and wow, he was great.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: So he was funny, and I imagine he was nice.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Oh he was super nice and just open to try anything,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: which was really fun. I mean we went in a
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: lot of directions and it. I had just a blast.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: He was so fun.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: How did you get over the fact that you were
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: improvis with Ben Affleck? How did?
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: I was so nervous about it. I think we all were,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: and they made it was even more nervous because like
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: we're in the room waiting and every you know, he's
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: the star of the whole thing, so you're waiting there, waiting, waiting,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: and then it's like in Ben and he's super tall
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: and really buff and like just quite a presence. So
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: when he walked in, I was like, oh.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's intimidating.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Yes, but then he was super nice and easy to
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: work with.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: And were you the first one when he sat down?
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Were you the first person that he was improvising with?
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: No, I felt really okay, Like my heart went out
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: for this girl, Lisel who was the first, because that
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: was She was really nervous too. We all were like
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: we were sitting together. The women who were speaking roles
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: dating him were like, oh gosh, this is nerve wracking.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: But he ended up being so nice, Like we had
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: been told by various people on set, like do not
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: call him Ben, don't address him as anything except Christian.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Character name is Christian? Okay, got it, got chat and
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: really strict like by them. And I don't know if
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: they were his handlers or who they were. But then,
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: for an example, when I sat down with him and
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: it was the first cut, he's like, hey, so, what's
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: your name? And I was like, uh, you're like Ben Affleck.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, uh, Kristen, Kristen Dody, I know,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Christian Chattle with who am I? I don't know?
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Do any of those sound right? I was?
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: He he was like, what's your name? And he wanted
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: to chat it up.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, yeah, and I and I had my
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: name tag on, so I was like, thinking of all them,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: I was like, I'm Annie, I'm Annie, and he's like Christian,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: pardon you're Christian. And he's like, you're the same name
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: as your your character. And I was like, oh, I
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: mean I'm I'm Megan. And he's like, oh, cool, all right,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: and then just starts like chatting about stuff. And I
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: was like, I didn't think I was allowed to say
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: my name anything. So I was like real scared. But
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: oh my god, oh that's so nice. No.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I couldn't understand why you would be flustered because you've
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: been given such serious and strict parameters and you don't
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen if if he is asking your
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: character name or you know, I would have totally done
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: the same thing.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Meanwhile, he's probably like this lady is so intimidated she
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: can't remember her name.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Also, and it's like, Ben, do you know what your
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: handlers are saying to people not to call you?
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Know?
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: I mean so, but I totally understand that they have
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: to like do that because they don't want any people
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: who may not be you know salt of the earth
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: and have a good you know, grounding in reality that
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: they won't start to freak out under the pressure and
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: start to.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Be like you know what I mean, Ben Wink and.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Start to just be weird and quirky and so oh wow.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: But he was like, no, I'm dropping I'm dropping this down,
• 7:59

• 8:47
  Speaker 1: We'll have to fact check that. Okay, I'm sorry. Okay, no,

• 8:52
  Speaker 1: be really cool.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: So speaking of gross Point, why don't we talk about
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Grossmunt Garden Society. Let's all welcome ourselves in welcome, Thank you,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: thank you. So we have finally gotten to the gardening competition,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: which is very exciting, the Southeastern Michigan Gardening Competition, where,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: you know, just on the heels of it, we have
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Theodore who's obviously representing who's the president of the Bloomfield
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Hills Gardens Society or club or what have you. And
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: so Theodore and Maryland have a little face off over
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: this trophy and they're talking about like what they have
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: in store, and we see Ricou the judge, the landscaping
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: legend who apparently did landscaping for Oprah's estate.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: With Kou what a name. I love, the only one name.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: They say, he only has one name, Recou.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: The White Gloves, and I love like later on when
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: he was judging, and I think Bertie was like, is
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: that a mime? Like I don't know what to happen
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: right now? What a fun comedic character that they threw
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: in there. That was just so great for them, and
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: it was so fun.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: I loved watching what they did with that, Like, what
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: a great way to make this cup even more silly,
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: like to you know it's silly. I guess you're thinking
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: of gardening cup, you know, this contest over whose garden
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: looks better, and then to take it to that level
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: that you have recoup there, it was just so great.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Riku was amazing. I was so thrilled that he got
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: some time with us, and that Marilyn was so freaked
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: out by what theodoorre whispered in her ear that she
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: went ahead and tried and secured these ridiculous Easter Island
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: statues and put them in the garden and smashed us
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: so many of their flowers and didn't get approval from
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: the club.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: No, she did it totally on her own, and it
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: was I feel like people were not happy.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: They were so livid.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: I did. I thought those looked terrible. I was like, man,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know why that, of all things Maryland.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: I just got back from Disney World. So it did
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: look like, you know, we were immersed in some sort
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: of ride or habitat or resort themed resort. You know,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: that was like spectacular and so but my god, but.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: It reminded you of your vacation, like, oh, on theme,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: I love this. The gross Point Garden has been transformed
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: into a South American paradite.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: The when we went to the Avatar ride in uh
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: it was that was actually at Animal Kingdom Park. They
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: have an Avatar thing. Did you see Avatar?
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah a long time, I don't remember.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: I mean yeah, it was blue longest blue creatures. You
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: get the idea. But you know that like huge tree
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: that they all lived in or like got their life,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: you know, yes or not they didn't. They didn't live
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: in that one tree, but that was essentially you know
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: the tree that I'm talking about. Well, I know the
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Channimal Kingdom. They have a recreation of that tree.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: That's why. I mean, that's what it was. Giving Avatar
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: tree to me.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: The Easter Island statues were giving. Giving Avatar tree at
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Animal Avatar Tree would have been more on point for
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: that that fourth category where they said, I forget what
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: the word was, but hard escape on four things like
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: what the garden looks like, But the fourth one was
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: what hard escape details are at it?
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: I do wonder you know, obviously we didn't see the garden.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: I mean every single intricacy. I mean, we did get
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: the broad strokes of it, but like, what were their
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: hard escapes? You know, I mean before that, what were
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: they because garden domes?
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Were they little trolls? I don't know.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: That. When Theodore made that slam about gnomes, and I
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: was like, oh, shocking to so many listeners and watchers
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: of the show. But what are you going to do?
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: I did laugh when they got eight points deducted for
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: cultural appropriation.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, topic right now. I love that. I love
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: that they got in trouble for that. There's so much
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: of that going on. In fact, I had heard not
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: long ago that and I have them on right now.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: The wearing earrings is cultural appropriation. I all know that.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: What Oh dear, oh.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Dear, Well, now, thank you for the support.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Hold on, I wonder if it's the hoop earrings where
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: they make the huge holes in their lobes.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: So.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: It could be exactly right, Yeah, that would make way
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: more sense. Yeah, that is an African tribal thing where
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: they they expand like they expand their lobes you know,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: over the years. So that and that is deemed to
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: be like an exceptional trait, you know, when the more
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: your lobes are the bigger the holes are, you know
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And that's something in our culture where like,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: you know, the cool kids were kind of doing like
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: the kids.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Who were I just want to keep hearing you say
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: lobes like thobes.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: How about this one Lisa Lobes. And I heard that
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: she's been canceled because her last name is cultural appropriation.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Oh she deserves it, yeah yeah.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: But AnyWho, So after this horrific thing that happened with
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: the competition, Bloomfield Hills, they win, okay, and and then
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Donna speaks up and is like, so passed in the garden,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: and she was just like, we can in Peach Art,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: we can in peach Maryland, Maryland, Maryland, I like said,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: Maryland the state.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: And then she vacation there a mighty Maryland good.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, the whole like club
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: agrees to impeach her, and then you know, give the
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: reins over to Catherine. Yes, And then of course we
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: find out that Bloomfield Hills is disqualified because Bertie was
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: out and saw Recoup and Theodore out and having a
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: little in appropriate inappropriate context.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Yes, Teta tet leg a leg Dong Dong. I don't know,
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: we don't we didn't see Dong dong.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: We have to assume. And then that was just great.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: And so the whole Maryland takedown of them was fantastic,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: and then her just bringing that trophy in, which was
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: by default, but what are you gonna do? They'll take
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: it right, No, that's.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: Right, and so I just want the message here was
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: so clear to me that Bloomfield Hills just sucks, you know,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: and God pointed better. We are way better, and that
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: the show, I.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Mean truly, you know, gross point isn't messy at all,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: and and they deserve their trophy. Well. I did love
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: the scene when Marilyn was going to be told by
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Catherine that she was impeached, and so she goes to
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: her house and clearly Marilyn knows what's up, and it's
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: just like, I'll give you some coffee. I resign, you know,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: and so she's like one of it's kind of like
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: a housewife thing where they know they're going to get fired,
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: and so they are like I quit at a Cohen
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: like calls and I was like, you've had such a
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: great run, I quit Andy.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: You know, they're trying to beat you to it, like
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: they just want to save that last bit of face,
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: like no way, no, you're not going to do this
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: to me, no, no, no, I quit.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: I loved that. Yeah, but in the end, yeah, I
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: loved how Catherine handled it because I did think Catherine
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: was about to just drop on her in that moment. Yeah,
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: you know, you really screwed this up. Then Catherine sees
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: the nasty relationship between Maryland and her husband, Buzz the mayor, Yeah, Buzz,
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: you know. Then she realizes like, I'm not gonna do
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: this to this woman. And I loved that for Catherine.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: I was women supporting women. That was the supporting women.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: In the end, we lift each other up, you know,
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: the tide lifts all boats. I'm not sure the in
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: the Saint Claire.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Late late Saint Claire when the when those what were
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: those muscles called when they oh, the zebra muscles, the
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: zebra muscles, remember that, gross pointers. The zebra muscles came in.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: That was like early aughts, or maybe that was in
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: the nineties. I don't know.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, I like calling it the aughts. Let's do that.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Earlys late nineties, the zebra muscles were taking over and yeah,
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: the water level was down, right.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: I don't even remember what we did about them, and
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: we meaning Amy and I.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Because we were we were fighting hard against those zebra muscles.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: I think time allowed them to eventually find their way out.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know how they left what they were doing,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: but it was bad. It was bad for Lake Saint Clair.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: It was bad. But I like that idea that neither
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: of us know. So we'll just say time took care
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: of it.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, right, Time took care of it. But anyway,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: so yes, they she rose above it as the water
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: level rose a little bit after the zebra muscles left,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: and you know, we got some of our water lines back.
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: But Catherine had compassion in the end, and that was
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: really nice. But she did somewhat takeover, you know, garden society,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: and she is becoming quite maniacal, much like her predecessor.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: I think it's I mean, really showing us laying down
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: that when you when you have power, power corrupts. I mean,
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's corrupt. It's hard to corrupt corrupt. Yeah,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: that's true.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, your your own issues can affect
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: your control and your you're up. Yes, Okay, So we
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: also got that Brett is laundering money for Connor's friend.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Yes, I steve that the car guy. I was really like,
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: you know, and Brett. I love learning about him. He's
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: so upstanding that as he figures that out, he's like,
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: no way am I doing that. He wasn't like, you know,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: I'm watching that. I'm like, maybe he'll just take the
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: money from this one and then get out of it
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: for the next one. But he no, He's like, I'm
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: not taking any laundered money. It just made me like
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: his character so much more than that creepy Connor. I'm
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: gonna start calling him creepy Connor.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: He is, he's creepy Connor. And the fact that he
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: got he had to pack his stuff and go.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: From the law firm. Yes, yeah, yeah, that's a yeah.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: We learned a lot about him with him, like seeing
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: his colleague I suddenly they show us his colleagues don't
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: like him at his law Firm's right, he's sort of
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: a scumbag and we really see that.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And and of course Brett tells Melissa he's like,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: she is not a good guy. And they have their
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: whole thing. The kids get RSV. Connor's totally you know,
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: skeeving out about it.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: Yes, it's absolutely hysterical. It did remind me of me
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: wearing like a mask in gloves and like cleaning the
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: light switches like dirty, too many germs. Get them out
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: of here, send them to Brett.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: There's definitely like, you know, I see where Connor was
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: coming from. You can have the mask and gloves on
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: and still completely be immersed in the sickness and take
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: care of them. And you know, I'm sure their house
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: is big enough for him to quarantine and not be
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: away from me. The house is enormous.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, stay in the basement. That's what those gross point
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: basements are for. Yeh.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: Garants completely furnished and for sure has a drop ceiling.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: Ceiling, probably its own door. I'm guessing he could enter
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: an exit out of that door.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: Truly. Yes. But they so, Melissa and Brett have a
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: little like back to parenting together and this feels good.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: And Melissa's seeing Connor for you know, who he is,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: and now he's seeing Brett for the things that he sacrificed,
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: and they have a little kiss and Connor's p I
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: got it on film.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that took a turn to me. I was shocked
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: that he caught that on film. I didn't know where,
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: you know, I thought, he I guess he's parked outside.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so he's just doing the most mediocre PI work,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: you know, is if that's the only PI you could get. Yeah,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: But so that was it was cute to see them
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: come together for a minute and at least see Melissa
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: see the forest of the trees about what she you know,
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: the decisions that she's made and she could be wrong,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: and where they went wrong.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: And you are you rooting for them to stay together
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: as a couple or how do you feel?
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Good question. So I wonder, like, I mean, obviously
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: for the kids, that'd be great. So I mean I'm
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: gonna have to say yes, but because at this point
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: rooting for Alice and Brett would be so messy and
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: just yeah, but I don't think that Brett has it
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: for Melissa anymore anyway. I mean, I don't think they're
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: meant to be I don't think they're Yeah, I don't
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: think that they're meant to be together anyway. Ye, I'm
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: gonna say no. I think they should stay separate and
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: maybe just co parent. Well, how about you?
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that. Okay, yeah, I don't know. I'm
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: torn with you. I like the idea of their family
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: being together. I'm sure the kids would like that, like
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: you said. And I also feel like Alice coming in
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: would not be a good step mom because she so
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: doesn't want kids that Oh right, Yeah, I don't know
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: about that, but I don't know. I am undecided.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, let's talky about Bertie and her birth son
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: Ford and how he has now figured out that that
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: is his birth mom because he read her book. He
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: figured out the Grand Rapids thing and his father certificate. Yeah,
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: and he got a like he got a scholarship already
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: for baseball. Like didn't he just start like all coaching
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: last week?
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: What it? Talent?
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Wow, Albion already scooped him up. He got it, you know,
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: I mean Albion moves fast. I think do we and
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: gross point we know that Albion.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: They swoop in no matter if you've not been on
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: one baseball team, if you can throw that pitch, you're
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: good to go.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: They're on it. They're like, you pitched okay, good? Did
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: we care? If? No? No?
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: That Like, there's a lot of stuff on this show.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: That is just so far fetched. But you know, as
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: are so many shows, you just go with it. But yeah,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: we love it.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: And you know, the truth is University of Michigan is
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: probably a big threat to Albion, so they probably do
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: have to ask act very fast.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Ooh snap, my alma mater for one summer semester, University
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: of Michigan. That is no. One summer semester.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: Whow you're a true wolverine. Uh, you're a summer wolverine.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: I'm a summer wolf wolf, summer wolf. So hey, what
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: do you so like this whole Birdie and Ford situation
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: and and and we're talking about his dad being a
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: baseball like being on the baseball team, and so we.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Don't know for sure if it is uh, what's his
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: officer Joel Guy? Ye, officer Joel. You don't know any
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: Like I don't know anymore. I just assumed that a
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: long time ago, and now I have no clue.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: Same I can't tell because Ford is like, tell me
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: about my dad, and I also assumed it's Joel, And
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: but now it really is unclear. I think they're leaving
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: us hanging.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: Not no, Okay, we don't know who was killed or
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: murdered or wounded. What I've well, somebody was killed, and
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: we don't know who Ford's father is. And we also
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: don't know who Olga is because there's some suspicion behind her.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, we think you know, Amy, and I called
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: or you called. I can't remember that she is Bertie's mom,
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: right right.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: Well, Lisa, Lisa, you her husband called, okay, friend, Yes,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: she's the one who made that, Lisa, Yes, so, yes,
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: of course, Lisa, I haven't heard from you in a
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: while about your ideas. But and again, we haven't done
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: this podcast in a little while, so we'll get we'll
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: have to get some of the girls point girls on
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: my friend going on. Yeah, some theories here, and you know,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: but honestly, like this whole relationship between Bertie and Ford
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: is just so inappropriate, like you know, and then it
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: just she's so in the wrong for so many things.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: But obviously she's so likable and it's such a great
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: storyline that you just give it a pass. But Ford's mother,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: who is just livid about all this, is trying to
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: just like please please leave, like you're not you've done enough.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: And Joel has since left the house.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah he's not with Misty anymore, Misty the mother like
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: he he left. Their relationship is blown up. She's still
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: working at the Saint Clair Grill and apparently as a valet,
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: which comes into convenient. It comes into play because in
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: the future the night of the Gala, we do see
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: her working in the ballet there. So Saint Claire Grill
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: probably provided the valet, or she took an extra job.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: We don't know.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: I think she took an extra job. Okay, do you
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: think the Saint Claire Grill is Like?
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: All right, guys, you're valet and tonight. I love the
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: idea of just so many things a business that does
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: too many things. We're restaurant and a ballet, you know,
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: although I guess valets do go with restaurants, but they're not, right.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: Typically it's a separate service. Yeah, right, I.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Don't know if i've have you. I'm trying to think
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: of the valet. Is there a valet like in gross
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Poite Village or the Hill that there would like I
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: remember them being one outside of maybe that one restaurant.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: It used to be called the Hill. I don't think
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: it's called that anymore.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: Oh, it's not called the Hill anymore.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, I think it's called the Brass Door or the
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: Golden Door. One of the two.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: Okay, it's either brass or golden. I hope they chose
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: golden because brass can tarnish, so.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: You know, gold no, no, brass, yeah can tarnish, okay,
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: or just copper can tarnish. Brass is just.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: Brassy, Okay, brassy, it's brassy.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: But you know what, I think that was called the
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: Golden Door back in the eighties, and then it was
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: called like remember it was one twenty three or one
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: two three. It's been a bunch of different restaurants. Yes, okay,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: now I think it is called the Golden Door. Oh okay,
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: but that's the restaurant that has the valet, or at
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: least did at some.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: Point, Okay. I I don't think I've been there with
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: the valet. I feel like in general, in gross Point,
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: parking is pretty ample.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: It's an entire large parking lot behind it, so.
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: Probably don't need it. But I you know, I know
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: people like that luxury service, so I wouldn't surprised if yeah,
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: the Golden number one two three changing restaurant provide. Yeah,
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: especially in the winter, you don't you don't want to park.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: Oh, the winter, good point, Yeah, great point, the door, yeah,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: a lot of you know, the references of gross point
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: are all so fun when you hear.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Oh, I love hearing them. One of my favorites that
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: came out. So I'm just diving into Catherine's storyline a
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: little do it do it? Yeah? That she and is
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: finds out that her parents are splitting her mom and dad,
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: who are probably in their seventies or something, they're older,
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: and they just they can't make it work anymore, and
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: they're selling the house and they ask her to sell it.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: And I love all the montage of her trying to
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: sell the house to different people. And one of my
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: favorite gross Points slash Detroit things was the Poabic tile
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: around the fireplace.
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: Yes, shout out Polabic pottery.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I loved that. I was like, I love
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: that that made it in here, and that this little
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: like fourteen year old kid is talking about ripping the
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: Poabic tiles out and selling them. He's like, I can
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: take these out and so put a console here, I know,
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, how dare you?
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: I should have brought my Poabic tile in here, but
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: I will, I'll like post a picture of it. But
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: it's like a Michigan mit. I mean, I mean a
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: mint being like this is the state of Michigan. But
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: it's set the mitt and it's in a Poabic and
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: is it a frame?
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: But and I have one too, I can't. Mine's not
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: in a frame. But yeah, I mean, if you're from
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: gross Point, you got some Poabic tao.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: Okay, you gotta lodd it Poabic. You gotta get that poetic.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: You know you got a Poabic, you get right, you
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: got Yeah, it's just a it's a verb. I did
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: love that montage of her trying to sell the house
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: and people wanting to just do so many changes, and
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: she was like, nope, get out, get out now. But
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: then to find out that somebody, the person who does
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: want it she thought was the perfect family and the
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: perfect situation, turns out they are related to like a
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: builder and like new construction, and so she now thinks
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: that they're gonna like tear it down. So we'll see.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's tough. Those beautiful old girls Point houses.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: I will say they need a lot of plumbing work.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: The plumbing is old, ye, So I would invest in that,
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: but the houses are gorgeous.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: They are they are great foundation.
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: Really good foundation.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: But absolutely the plumbing and get your sewer systems figured out,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: because oh yeah, what happened a few years ago, everybody.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: Just floods, floods who were.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: Backed up into oh gross point like the city, city
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: and farms. I think got it real bad, really bad.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: It was a really nasty time. It's a stinky, nasty time.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: On that note, it is a great time to take
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: a quick break. You know, what I find totally fascinating
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: these days is that people are talking about therapy and
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: their therapists like it's nothing. And I got to tell you,
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: I really appreciate that. I know I'm kind of one
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: of them too. It's just nice to finally be able
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: to talk to people and be like, oh, yeah, my
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: therapist said this, and oh do you like your therapist?
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: So I just think that now the stigma is gone.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: And we also have the World Wide Web. So between
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: two big things knocked down the stigma and the accessibility
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: to find a therapist. You know, Rula, who is the
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: sponsor of today's show, makes it so easy to bring
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: those two things together to help you find the right
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: therapyiss and I know I've done therapy. You know, if
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: you listen to my show, you know I talk about
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: it sometimes. And if you love therapy and you've done
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: it before and maybe you want to start up again,
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: or you know somebody, you know, I have to tell
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: you that Rula is something that is so amazing because
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: finding the right mental health care should be simple and affordable,
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: but for many people it's really not because there's long
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: wait times, there's high costs, and difficulty finding the right
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: provider can make getting help feel overwhelming when it doesn't
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: have to be. So that's where RULA comes in. Rula
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: connects you within network licensed therapists that accept most major insurance.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: Their users typically have a cope of fifteen dollars per session,
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: making therapy more accessible than ever. How about that with

  Speaker 1: Megan Grano, star of the Accountant, to go see theaters
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: now again. If your star, you may miss me with
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: Ben Affleck, Alison Doug Alison Doug Boy and then their
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: parents and then Doug's parents, I mean, we are taken.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of twists and turns that have happened
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: over the last couple episodes, and uh, thank god we're
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: done buying his art. Because yes, the way that Alice
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: stepped up and started to try to like, you know,
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: put her credit card down was giving me hives.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: Oh me too. You go to get a coffee for
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: six bucks, which already gives me hives the sixty dollar coffee,
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: and then she's buying a piece of two thousand dollars
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: art with it, and her total is with tax two
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: thousand and seven dollars and fifty cents something like that,
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: and I'm like.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: No, no, By the way. On a coffee note, let
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: me ask you, are you a person that do you
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: buy your coffee out?
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: Like?
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Are you a Starbucks person? What do you do? What's
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: your coffee sitch?
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: Oh? I love getting coffee out. I don't know how
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: you feel that's one of my favorite treats for myself.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: But I will I don't do it a lot because
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: I am shocked by the price tag.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's the Megan. I know.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: All right, thank you.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: I knew that we were gonna we had to end
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: up back there a treat out. Yes, well, I never
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: get coffee out unless it's like, okay, it's very rare
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: that I get a coffee out, I will say. Anyway, right, No,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: I was a tea person up until I mean, I
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: am a tea person here and there, Megan. Okay, but
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: something changed at like I want to say, forty okay,
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: I have been a coffee person.
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: Now I am shocked.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I know, I know, I know.
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: Wasn't gradual or just one day you realized I need
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: more coffee.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: All of a sudden, it was like it was not gradual.
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: It was straight up. I mean, you'd think that there
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: was youth, like it was the Fountain of Youth or something.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: I was.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: I just was like, I am, I just want coffee,
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden it was just coffee
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: all the time, and then tea every once in a while.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: But so I have coffee every morning I never get
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: it out in the morning. The only time I ever
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: get coffee or any specialty drinks is like in the
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: afternoon with Maddie. If you know, we'll do the drive
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: through here in Santa Clarita and they'll and I'll get
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: a chi. I don't get coffee. I do not like
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Starbucks coffee.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: I do not.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: I typically don't like coffee out because I like to
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: control my caffeine intake with my coffee, because too much
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: caffeine makes me good bunkers.
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: So I do like a I like amy in every
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: face so bonkers. I would spend time with it. I
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: understand it can make you feel it can just be
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: too much. Sometimes it can be too much.
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: But I do love a hot, shy latte. And I
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: have not been a Macha girl. I've tried Macha I've
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: hated it. But last week when I went to Starbucks
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: with Maddie because she likes to get their pink drink
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: and like a protein like snack box is what we'll
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: do every once in a while for a treat. It's
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: really special. And I remember I got their Macha tea
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: latte cold, and I've gotten it hot both times. And
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: I've tried it a couple of times, and I have
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: not enjoyed it. So then I went back another time
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: and I said.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: You kept trying it.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: I did keep because everyone just keeps talking about Macha,
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: you know, And so I was like, is there anything
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: you can do to it to like make.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: It taste better?
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: And they're like, I mean we can put a little
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: like sweetener in it. I was like great, and so
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: whatever they did, it just it still did not taste good.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: So I'm like, I'm done with Macha. Then last week
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: I pulled up and I saw an oat. Now this
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: is where I don't like to get fancy with drinks,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: and so I had to go against everything in me,
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: and I was like, I'll have the oat milk, lavender
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Macha latte cold please, oh, because I just milk. I
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: now like bullshit drinks, as Larry David was like, I
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: don't do a bullshit coffee like. I just have never
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: been a bullshit coffee person. I am like coffee and milk,
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: or coffee and almond milk. That's it.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: Two things too.
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: I don't want your anyway. So I ordered it and
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: I freaking loved it. What because it's sweeter and somehow
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: it has like a flavor to it. So I'm sure
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: there's sugar in it and all that stuff, so it's
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: not like healthy anymore. But the macha lavender macha bullshit
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: with lattie with some milk blended with a foam thing
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: was really quite delicious.
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: So I am wondering if it's the combination of flavors,
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: or if like we're always telling our kids, like, just
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: keep trying to try those, try them one day, you're
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: gonna like them, or because I mean, you gave this
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: thing the old idea.
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: Try times several not even just at Starbucks, at other places,
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: and I've bought it, I've tried to do it myself,
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: hate it. So guys, I don't know what to tell you.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: I guess just put a bunch of sugar in it.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: That's probably what happened. I don't even know how we
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: got off on this. Oh yeah, because we were talking
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: about buying the art at coffee shops. And I have
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: an update for you. So one of the darlings who
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: listens to this podcast sent me a message. Thank you
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: coffee shop, either barista or coffee shop owner and maybe
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: both shout out to you. Here's your dj Airhorn said
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: to me, I want you to know that people often
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: do buy artwork in coffee shops. I hang artwork in
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: my coffee shop quite frequently, and there is a turnaround.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: And so I stand corrected because I said when he
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: first sold his painting, you know, I was like, no
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: one's buying two thousand dollars.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: That's what I thought. But my.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Reference the person who contacted me, now they did say
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: certainly not maybe that price point, but people are buying
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: art and they're buying it off of coffee coffee house walls.
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: So there you go, Darlins.
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I stand corrected too. I would never have guessed that.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: And here we are, and you know what the darlings
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: come through. They fact check me quite often. So there's
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: your most recent fat fact check.
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: Well I love that and I can't wait to get
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: fact checked on those zebra muscles, I know.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: So we now the cats out of the bag and
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Doug's dad, Yeah, it's like I can't take it anymore.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: They're buying your art yep.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: Keith, the dad is just not having it. He I
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: mean the tension between what that launches into the tension
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: that builds between Patty Doug's mom and Alice, it's a lot.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: I think they're getting to the point where they just
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: downright hate each other. And it really, it really builds
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: to this this well, let me let me add this
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: info that you know, Alice, I think maybe I'm skipping
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: too far ahead. But she gets a dog.
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: She gets a dog, she gets that dog a new pop,
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: she gets you. They're fostering the dog named Gail.
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: Okay, love it. This sweet little dog named Gail. And
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: she has Patty over and really leads her to believe
• 41:49
  Speaker 2: that she's about to tell her that they're having a grandchild,
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: which is all that Patty wants, It's the only thing
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: she wants. And instead she's like, we're having a dog.
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: Here's our dog, and they and they want and she
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: manipulates Patty into taking care of it all those nighttime
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: get up, take it for a pp log it in
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: the journal, and Patty is pissed. She in fact, it's
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: covered in piss at one point. Indeed, indeed, yeah, And
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: it's just like this terrible they are growing intention they
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: have a horrible fight. I loved the fight where they're
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: fighting over and I bet you there's a lot of
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: people who have comments on this people who don't want
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: kids and have dogs versus people who do have kids.
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: And Patty's going like, a dog is an animal.
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: It's an animal, not your kid. And I can't believe
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: you're willing to put this much attention and energy, more
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: so into a dog than with kids. And yeah, and
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: you know what, there are so many people who consider
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: their pets their children. Yeah, and I totally get it.
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, so people who either A want never want
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: to have kids, or b have tried and at this
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: point haven't had any success or just plain up, just
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: haven't had success and are moving on, and then their
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: animals become their family and so and if you're not
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: in that situation and you cannot like put yourself in
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: other people's shoes and get that, that's what's sad, because
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: you know, obviously Patty doesn't understand how much it means
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: to them.
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and she's just so desperate to get that grandchild.
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: She's so desperate that she seems like she can't see
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: someone else's point of view. But the question is Alice
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: then thinks that she you know, someone calls in someone
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: anonymous another mystery that they have a dog and they're
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: not supposed to have it in their apartment, right, And
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: so she Alice thinks that the mother in law, Patty,
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: did it. And then she finds a bullet in Patty's
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: jewelry case, which you know she left out.
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: Wait. I thought, no, that that is the bullet that
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: Alice still had. Alice did have the bullet from when
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: they took it out of the dog.
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, I thought that was Patty's. And I
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: was like, oh my god, I can't believe she kept
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: the bullet. I mean that would be our evidence, right.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: No, I think she just revisits the bullet and it's
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: like because it's in her jewlery, and she's like, hmm.
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: Hmm, let's double check this right with the gun or not? Right? Yes, okay,
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: that makes a lot more sense.
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure, of course, Darth check on that.
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, let us know what you think there, Because I
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: was going like, come on, why would she keep it
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: right in her jewelry and why would she leave her
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: jewelry open next to the sink. So it makes way
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: more sense that it's Alice's jewelry box. She's looking at
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: it and looks and it's like I'm gonna have this
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: testing because Doug and Patty had been playing a lot
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: of video games, and Doug is like, my mom is
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: a great shot, you know, so now it's real good together. Yeah.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: So I'm like, oh, okay.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah because her mom's and she also Patty said as
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: long as you have a dog, you'll never want a baby.
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: Yes, and so.
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: Those were words to live by.
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: And also yeah, when Alice finds well Alice, there's another
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: like interesting thing that happens between finding out Alice finding
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: out what her uh sorry, Doug's dad. What is his name? Keith?
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Keith tells her about their marriage.
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's like it was another hot mess gross
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: point marriage.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the mom. I love that she had an affair
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: with the weather man.
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: I forget his name, but it was so good for
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: weather man. It was like yeah, sip I don't Yeah.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: It was yeah, like skippity airwaves windy like yeah, something
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: to the Winston Windy or whatever.
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: Winston Windy, skippity sportsman, I don't yeah, skippity clouds. I
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: don't know. I don't remember what it was.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: But he and it's interesting because that's why he has
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: a lot of empathy for Doug when Doug tells him,
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: you know, Brett's in love with my wife, and why
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: Alice has empathy for Keith and wants to help their
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: family kind of like mend and doesn't have the bitterness
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: to want to move forward with her mother in law
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: Monster Diaries, you know, because she feels bad that Doug
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: is all Keith has and they're just kind of hanging
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: by a string.
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so true. Yeah, that that whole storyline they
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: really led us to believe. At least they led me
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: to believe. But and again, who knows, I'm maybe I'm
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: easy to get things wrong, but they led me to believe.
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: I thought the dad Keith was gonna murder like somebody.
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: I thought he was going to be so mad that
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: night at the gala, because they had the whole gala
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: scene where they set up backstory that Doug was a
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: troubled youth and vandalized things and got into a lot
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: of trouble and he'd finally turned his life around. But
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: then he's in this big fight at the gala, and
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: I thought Keith was going to come do something murderous,
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: but instead they just show us a brief clip that
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: is a great Cliffhanger that Keith sees them, so Keith knows,
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: he knows that those four our four main characters were
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: in there doing something bad into Boots.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: It's so hard to believe that they're like lifting up
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: weapon implements or gardening implements and are going to like
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: start hacking up an actual body right there. I mean,
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: is that what we're led to believe? I keep thinking,
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: is this going to be some kind of cartoon dummy
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: or I don't know what. It's so hard to believe,
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: but I mean.
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: Truly, I guess it is. I mean, I guess so
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: because that's You're right, they're talking about the garden instruments
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: and whacking it up. So I don't know, I mean, I.
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: Guess so crazy.
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's I don't know. They're they're taking me
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: on a journey. I'm very excited to see. I know
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: what they do.
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: I am very excited too, And it was nice to see,
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: you know, some of the underlying themes, which is that
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: Patty is clearly you know, she and Keith are still
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: not doing great, and she's trying to fix her problems
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: with a baby, just like they tried to fix their
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: problems with a baby, and it's never the answer.
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: So deep. I didn't put that together. Wow, that's so good.
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: And also Alice started to go down that road by
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: saying like, hey, maybe we should think about having a baby.
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: You know, she started to do exactly what they had done.
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: Yes, Oh my gosh, so true.
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: Wow, the the you know, the mistakes that are forefathers
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: have made you do as well.
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: So true. Can we escape those mistakes or not? That's
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: the question they're trying to show us. Yeah, and that's
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: a good question because I think we should talk about
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: Birdie and it seems like she is possibly about to
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: have the chance she's you know, they reveal to us
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: she's pregnant again. And again we don't know. We think
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: it's Officer Joel's right.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: We do. I mean when the when valet, when the
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: valet mom Misty comes into the bathroom at the gala,
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: she just happens to be in there when she throws off,
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: oh how long are you?
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, it just feels like that's another place where
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: we're revisiting, like are we were revisiting the.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: Past and she again, you know, hey, yeah with another
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: of Joel's babies or maybe not, maybe the first, right, well,
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: and she had to choose, like, so Misty basically said
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: to Bertie, you need to choose. It's either Ford or Joel, essentially,
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: and so she chose Ford and set up that whole
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: scenario with Joel coming over and catching her with her ex.
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: Yes. I love that. That character, by the way, that
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: Santrope like older man who's just like always in a
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: great mood and always playing in from London or wherever
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: he is. He's great, darling, great, yeah to be here.
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So well, Bertie's like, don't tell Joel, and then
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: Missy's like, congrats on another kid, you don't deserve. Love
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: the soap opera dialogue. I'm that love it, love.
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: It hard choices, hard herd decisions, lots of mystery.
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: Yes, I you know, I loved. I loved so many moments,
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: and of course so many of my favorites are like
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: Marilyn and Theodore and Donna. You know that side character
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: in the garden and when Bertie is like yelling, they're
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: all yelling at Donna to go get what were they
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: telling her to go get? But then finally Bertie yells,
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: She's like, bitch, go get it, and Donna just starts running.
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: Poor Donna, She's so emotionally abused by this group of
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: gross pointers. I feel so bad for her.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: She probably lives in like the East Village or something
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: close that's like Indian village. She's not quite gross point.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: They let her in technicality, we need we need to
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: fill in her backstory.
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah we do, Oh Donna, Yeah, was there anything else? Like,
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: did you feel there was anything else that popped out
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: for you? And these last few episodes that we should discuss.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: This is a really small thing. It just was very
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: personal to me and cracked me up. That when they
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: introduced Catherine's mom's character in whatever, I think that was
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: episode eighty, how Catherine realized her mom was in town
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: staying with her was that she walked into her kitchen
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: and everything is slightly rearranged, and the art is rearranged
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: and the furniture is slightly rearranged. And I fell over
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: laughing because that's what my grandma used to do when
• 52:27
  Speaker 2: she came to town. So my parents off work and
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: my grandma would always rearrange to her liking. And I
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: was like, oh, that's hilarious, Yes, it's great.
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. That does hit home for you, Megan,
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: that's amazing. I did love that moment because you don't
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: know what she's seeing. I'm like, what is it that
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: she's seeing? Who did this? Like what happened? And then
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: it's like your mother in law's here? I mean, I
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: mean your mom's here. That's what Typer said. Yeah, wow,
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: Oh I did think that scene was really touching. When
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: they had a flashback of when she was a little
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: girl and she was taking down all of her awards
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: and medals from her room and packing it up. That
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: was really sweet.
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: That was so sweet. Yeah, it's hard. Moving is so hard. Yeah,
• 53:14
  Speaker 2: leaving the home you know, did you is your Are
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: your parents still in the same place? They know?
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: But they moved after I was already out of the house.
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: I mean when I was they moved into uh they
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: when they downsized. I was already we graduated from college.
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: Okay. So and the place I've been to their house,
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: or at least the one I'm thinking of in gross Point.
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: Are they the house that had the fire?
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Like, oh, that's that's the one they're still in.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: So they had to basically kind of rebuild from from
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: the studs. I mean, the facade was everything was intact,
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: and they were able to save so much from the
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: fire in terms of like the you know, the refurbishment
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: companies and all that stuff. They were able to do
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: a lot, but a lot was was lost. Excuse me,
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: I'm not getting emotional. I just as well. My spit wrong.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: But they know it was divastating because we lost all
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: of our family pictures, like everything, I mean, all of
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: our family, you know, all that sentimental stuff. But the
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: great news is they were not hurt. They were you know,
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: they were completely fine, and they were able to rebuild
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: that house. So when they call it the house, they
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: kind of call that the old house, the house before
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: the fire.
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: Interesting, okay, because it's like a different house almost, you know,
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: because the way things were set up in certain ways.
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, so wild yeah anyway, but yeah, it's
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: this is just such a great it's a great show.
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: I love. Oh one more thing that we did find
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: out that Brett mailed her mother in law monster. I'm sorry, yeah, monster,
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: mother in law essay to the New York New Yorker
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: or the New York magazine I can't remember.
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: I don't remember either. But it's a magazine of some
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: sort in New York, I think, or a newspaper, but
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: we know it's in New York.
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: We know it's in New York. It's going to the
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: big city, so we know that he sends it off
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: and that's that.
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's and we know, you know, it seems
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: like everyone likes the writing, but they had decided, you know,
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: we're not going to end it out. But so Brett
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: doing this, I think we're being led to believe it
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: has something to do with the murder. Maybe. Oh I
• 55:32
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: Oh no, it did lead to the fight, right or no,
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: like you mean the essay. Yeah, oh my gosh, you
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: think there's something about the murder there?
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: Oh no, I think that I'm just remembering. Now. This
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: is episodes back, so now we're getting to see the
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: holes in my memory. But I remember that there was something.
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: I think I do that, Like Doug saw the state
• 55:57
  Speaker 2: like a package from the magazine and was really pissed,
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: and that's why he got drunk and came to the
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: gala all pissed.
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he got the exception the acceptance letter.
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she but I don't know. I thought that maybe
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: he was pissed that she submitted it.
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: Right, I see what you're saying yes, yes, yes, yes,
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: of course yeah.
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: Does it lead to the fight, which leads to I
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: don't know.
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: No, You're absolutely right on.
• 56:26
  Speaker 2: Thanks.
