- 0:19Speaker 1: welcome to a special episode. It's not a happy hour
- 0:22Speaker 1: today because we're gonna make this a bigger thrill. And
- 0:27Speaker 1: by bigger thrill, what we're saying is we're doing season
- 0:30Speaker 1: one finale today. Bump bump bomb Sex in the City.
- 0:35Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I forgot that part. I get one part
- 0:38Speaker 1: of this. I always have to build up of the
- 0:42Speaker 1: one thing. But because it is season one, season finale
- 0:46Speaker 1: of Sex in the City, we had to bring a
- 0:49Speaker 1: guest because we couldn't do this alone. We had to
- 0:51Speaker 1: celebrate with our good friend Bridget Todd. Welcome Bridget, Thank
- 0:56Speaker 1: you so much. I am so ready to talk Sex
- 0:58Speaker 1: in the City. I love this show. I am locked
- 1:00Speaker 1: and loaded. I cannot wait. Oh my gosh. We are
- 1:02Speaker 1: so happy to have you. Yes, we've been talking about
- 1:05Speaker 1: doing this for so long now and now it's come
- 1:08Speaker 1: to fruition and we are here. But we do have
- 1:11Speaker 1: some traditions to follow. As tradition, Annie, can you please
- 1:16Speaker 1: let our listeners have the review of what has happened
- 1:18Speaker 1: thus far in season one of Sex and O. I
- 1:22Speaker 1: love this. I love that you're here, Bridget, because you're
- 1:24Speaker 1: gonna hear me fumble through this. Okay, So, so far
- 1:29Speaker 1: we've had conversations around single women versus married women, baby showers, anal, sex, vibrators,
- 1:40Speaker 1: dating young people, models, dating models, um, dating fixer uppers.
- 1:47Speaker 1: I guess, um, farting in front of your boyfriend not
- 1:52Speaker 1: being perfect? I guess was the ultimate point of that story,
- 1:55Speaker 1: in front of your boyfriend wanting to get married or
- 1:58Speaker 1: not wanting to get married? Uh, female body and art.
- 2:03Speaker 1: I guess, yes, thank you for that. I think that's uh.
- 2:10Speaker 1: A lot of good conversations have come out from this,
- 2:12Speaker 1: but we also have met, uh the big love interest
- 2:17Speaker 1: for Carrie big um and seeing a lot of others
- 2:22Speaker 1: kind of passed by for for the other characters. Is
- 2:26Speaker 1: that good? All right, that's pretty good. I like it.
- 2:29Speaker 1: So Bridget, you have not been on our little track here,
- 2:34Speaker 1: but I am interested. What do you remember of season
- 2:37Speaker 1: one of Sex in the City. Oh? I remember that
- 2:40Speaker 1: Season one of Sex in the City a lot, like
- 2:42Speaker 1: other HBO shows, was kind of playing with format and
- 2:47Speaker 1: genre like it kind of people forget that. The early
- 2:51Speaker 1: season Season one in particular had this kind of like
- 2:54Speaker 1: like someone is making a documentary about relationships, feel that
- 2:58Speaker 1: they sort of I don't think they. I think they
- 3:00Speaker 1: kind of abandoned that as a trope. So remember it's
- 3:02Speaker 1: a lot of like people talking at the camera and
- 3:05Speaker 1: people being interviewed. I remember that in the episode where
- 3:09Speaker 1: Carrie farts, they like the fart over and over again,
- 3:12Speaker 1: like she's just like going about her business and then
- 3:15Speaker 1: she hears the like fart. Yeah, what's funny is that
- 3:20Speaker 1: I I, you know, was watching this show as it
- 3:23Speaker 1: came out and like was like, you know, was obsessed
- 3:26Speaker 1: with it, watched it all the time, and I thought
- 3:29Speaker 1: that the characters were so grown up and so like
- 3:33Speaker 1: quote old Baraman. I was watching this in high school.
- 3:36Speaker 1: And now it's like, oh, I'm probably older than they
- 3:38Speaker 1: were supposed to be on the show. Yes, yes they
- 3:42Speaker 1: are mid thirties, early thirties, and yeah, I have bypassed that.
- 3:46Speaker 1: I'm at Samantha's age. Samantha um six in the city,
- 3:50Speaker 1: and they pretty much treated her as if she was
- 3:52Speaker 1: ancient and so like they're so proud that she could
- 3:57Speaker 1: still hang with them when she could out and do
- 3:59Speaker 1: all of the Um, I can't outdo my friends. I'm
- 4:01Speaker 1: just saying that's how I remember the show, and because
- 4:06Speaker 1: I think Bridget you and I have talked about the
- 4:08Speaker 1: fact that this this was pretty significant show for the
- 4:11Speaker 1: two of us, especially like trying to understand relationships and
- 4:15Speaker 1: actually liking sex or wanting to be sexy and what
- 4:19Speaker 1: that looks like with pushing the boundaries of not just
- 4:22Speaker 1: being the cute sea girls in the background can't talk
- 4:25Speaker 1: about this, you know, for me growing up in the
- 4:28Speaker 1: Southern culture, very religious culture, and that this was like
- 4:32Speaker 1: and heard of, and I was like, what women actually
- 4:35Speaker 1: putting themselves out as like sexy and being seen. That's amazing.
- 4:40Speaker 1: And yes, we do have the characters of wanting to
- 4:42Speaker 1: get married, but also having the strong characters of like
- 4:45Speaker 1: not necessarily needing to be married. That was such a
- 4:47Speaker 1: phenomenon to me. Yeah, And I also think this is
- 4:51Speaker 1: the convert the frank conversation about sex and like specific
- 4:55Speaker 1: sex acts, you know, sex and the city they were
- 4:57Speaker 1: talking about anal sex and like there's a guy who
- 5:00Speaker 1: wants carried a pe on him and like it's like
- 5:03Speaker 1: the frankness with which they discussed specific sex sex I
- 5:06Speaker 1: think was a new thing. I think that we didn't
- 5:09Speaker 1: really have a lot of mainstream television characters that that
- 5:12Speaker 1: placed women in conversations about sex in this way. And
- 5:16Speaker 1: you know, for for me, sex and the City, for
- 5:19Speaker 1: better or for worse, I feel like it to find
- 5:22Speaker 1: what I thought a generation of my life would look like.
- 5:25Speaker 1: Like I moved to New York for a while because
- 5:27Speaker 1: I wanted to have a sex and the city style life.
- 5:31Speaker 1: Like I thought it would be really cool to live
- 5:33Speaker 1: in New York City, have some like cool flashy job,
- 5:36Speaker 1: have friends date like you know, being eurotic about my
- 5:39Speaker 1: dating life. Like I think it really was something that
- 5:42Speaker 1: got in my head and gave me a blueprint for
- 5:45Speaker 1: what at this point in my life. It was in
- 5:47Speaker 1: my twenties, but like what my twenties would look like. Uh,
- 5:50Speaker 1: it definitely was a fantasy. I really do. Like and Andy,
- 5:54Speaker 1: we haven't come to a couple of these episodes that
- 5:56Speaker 1: we've mentioned. There is a moment when people actually calculate
- 6:00Speaker 1: it how much she spent on shoes, how much she
- 6:02Speaker 1: spent on eating out, and they were like, my god,
- 6:05Speaker 1: it was so it's a huge amount and the realisticness
- 6:09Speaker 1: of like, people who actually do move to New York
- 6:11Speaker 1: don't have this life that they have created as of
- 6:14Speaker 1: like this is the standard girl. Let me tell you
- 6:18Speaker 1: Charny is meant to be a freelance columnist, right, she
- 6:21Speaker 1: doesn't work multiple jobs. That's her only job leto and
- 6:24Speaker 1: so her apartment is meant to be rent controlled like Okay,
- 6:27Speaker 1: I don't know, but it's like having having navigated the
- 6:30Speaker 1: New York City rental market. I have some questions. But
- 6:33Speaker 1: just looking at her clothes, it doesn't make any sense
- 6:36Speaker 1: like she would be in major, major, major debt. It
- 6:38Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense. It's a complete fantasy financially, and
- 6:42Speaker 1: they do. Then you talk about her being in debt,
- 6:44Speaker 1: but she is quickly to come out of it, which
- 6:45Speaker 1: is also very unrealistic. I guess like one episode blob
- 6:48Speaker 1: of like, ma'am, that's not possible for you to be
- 6:51Speaker 1: that quickly done with this, But I digress. We are
- 6:54Speaker 1: going to talk about the season for nowe however, because
- 6:58Speaker 1: even though this is not on our happy hour day
- 7:01Speaker 1: or happy hour series, we are still enjoying a happy
- 7:04Speaker 1: hour because it's sex in the city and we should
- 7:08Speaker 1: obviously have some type of drink. So I must ask,
- 7:11Speaker 1: do you ladies have a drink in your hand? And
- 7:13Speaker 1: what are you drinking if so, oh, I, if I
- 7:16Speaker 1: had been a little more on the ball, I would
- 7:18Speaker 1: be drinking a Cosmopolitan right now. But I am having
- 7:22Speaker 1: a nice white wine. I got a little creative on
- 7:27Speaker 1: this one because I recently was very fortunate enough to
- 7:30Speaker 1: go on a beach trip with my friends and they
- 7:33Speaker 1: brought all of these alcohols I don't normally drink, and
- 7:36Speaker 1: one of which is called lover Boy, just like a tea.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Um So, I made like I still have my Galactic gin,
- 7:47Speaker 1: my Star Wars themed gin, and I mixed it with
- 7:50Speaker 1: some of the lover Boy and some lime and topped
- 7:53Speaker 1: it off with a lot of sparkling water. And it's
- 7:54Speaker 1: actually really refreshing. Very tired. Do either of you watch
- 7:59Speaker 1: Summer House on No lover Boy is um I think
- 8:04Speaker 1: like owned by two of the people from that that
- 8:06Speaker 1: terrible reality show that like every week. Oh my god,
- 8:14Speaker 1: knew that it was amazing. I have no reference to
- 8:20Speaker 1: either one of these things. I need to know. Yeah,
- 8:23Speaker 1: and I am being very basic because we just I
- 8:26Speaker 1: just moved into my house and I can't find anything.
- 8:29Speaker 1: Um So, I am drinking a Corona Premiere. So I
- 8:33Speaker 1: am that basic. But it's doing his job that's all
- 8:36Speaker 1: I have to say to that, And of course, moving
- 8:40Speaker 1: on to even more of our tradition, Annie, I'm about
- 8:43Speaker 1: to tell you the title of this episode, and I
- 8:46Speaker 1: need a prediction from you, And because we have Bridget here,
- 8:48Speaker 1: I'm going to see if she remembers it can kind
- 8:51Speaker 1: of give us some background on it too. So Annie,
- 8:54Speaker 1: the title is, Oh, come all, ye faithful Okay. I
- 8:59Speaker 1: think that this has to do with Carrie's sort of
- 9:05Speaker 1: fight with Big where she's like, baby, I do want
- 9:09Speaker 1: to get married because he said he didn't want to
- 9:11Speaker 1: get married and they have like a is it come
- 9:16Speaker 1: to Jesus moment of you know? I want this? What
- 9:20Speaker 1: do you want? What are we doing? What did you
- 9:22Speaker 1: call that? Samantha to Fine the dtr Yeah, but like
- 9:27Speaker 1: in a bigger way, like right where we going exactly?
- 9:33Speaker 1: That's I think it's gonna be. Okay. Okay, So Bridget,
- 9:37Speaker 1: I'm gonna say if you can you do this without
- 9:39Speaker 1: spoilers because I don't know how much you remember, but
- 9:41Speaker 1: do you remember this episode and can you kind of
- 9:43Speaker 1: give us a small synopsis of it? I remember this
- 9:45Speaker 1: episode really well. It has a beautiful ending scene. I
- 9:48Speaker 1: remember that like very pointing it. I also think this
- 9:51Speaker 1: was an episode where, I mean, this happens a lot
- 9:54Speaker 1: on the show, but where I was like, Carrie, girl,
- 9:56Speaker 1: what are you doing? Like she has some behavior that
- 9:59Speaker 1: I think is bordered mine, Like she's she's always very
- 10:02Speaker 1: neurotic and very like overthinking her relationships, but she she
- 10:05Speaker 1: has some behavior here that I would never recommend any
- 10:09Speaker 1: friend of mine. Do you right? Um? Oh, yes, that's good.
- 10:14Speaker 1: This is a good one. Yes. And I think now
- 10:17Speaker 1: that you say that, I have to say though, she
- 10:19Speaker 1: has some right to die friends, and Miranda was definitely
- 10:23Speaker 1: right or die in this situation. Maybe she should have
- 10:25Speaker 1: warned her some for some things, but still like it
- 10:29Speaker 1: was good to say that she would be there too
- 10:31Speaker 1: during her mistakes to pick her back up. She has
- 10:34Speaker 1: some but she's lucky to have some really good friends. Yes, agreed,
- 10:39Speaker 1: And yeah, I was mentioning this before. But this is
- 10:41Speaker 1: one of those episodes where there's a scene on here
- 10:44Speaker 1: and we'll talk about it in a bit that always
- 10:45Speaker 1: makes me cringe so hard that I must fast forward.
- 10:49Speaker 1: I'm like, no again, watched this every time, but we'll
- 10:51Speaker 1: be watching it together and it's entire I'll let you
- 10:54Speaker 1: know how I feel about that after the fact. So
- 10:57Speaker 1: are you ready now? I'm not so sure. Okay, well
- 11:06Speaker 1: let's get into it. So I have a question for you,
- 11:21Speaker 1: Bridget on the intro, did it always any time make
- 11:23Speaker 1: you pause at any point when you see this Asian
- 11:25Speaker 1: dude who just gaux at her that the weirdest things weird?
- 11:31Speaker 1: Was that a purpose? I think it's meant to be like,
- 11:35Speaker 1: she's just like, you can't take your eyes off of her.
- 11:38Speaker 1: She's really, you know, a focal point of a New
- 11:41Speaker 1: York City street. So what's with the showers? What do
- 11:52Speaker 1: you mean you always get up in shower right after
- 11:55Speaker 1: we're done. I'm starting to it's see to me, this
- 11:59Speaker 1: doesn't feel weird. Is this weird? After six? Yeah? I
- 12:05Speaker 1: don't have air conditioning in my apartment, so this is
- 12:08Speaker 1: like our standard operating like a thing. I think that
- 12:13Speaker 1: there's this like romantic notion of cuddling immediately relaxing. Maybe
- 12:18Speaker 1: feel like you give it a small cuddle and then
- 12:20Speaker 1: you shower and then you come back and cuttle more.
- 12:24Speaker 1: But also if it's like not like you're dating constantly
- 12:29Speaker 1: and he was hopping in my shower, that'd be weird
- 12:31Speaker 1: to me. A little weird. I once went out with
- 12:34Speaker 1: a guy who biked to my house for for a
- 12:37Speaker 1: very first date, and he was so sweaty that I
- 12:40Speaker 1: was like, do you want to take a shower before
- 12:41Speaker 1: we go to dinner? Was so sweaty. Well, hello there,
- 12:57Speaker 1: church goer, all right, Mr goes to church. My ex
- 13:03Speaker 1: boyfriend was Catholic, and it was a whole thing the Catholics,
- 13:09Speaker 1: like the three hour ceremony that I'm not technically supposed
- 13:13Speaker 1: to participated, but I have to be there for and
- 13:16Speaker 1: you have to be there, and it's like a freaking
- 13:18Speaker 1: gymnastics routine, Like did I get me? Stand out? Turn
- 13:21Speaker 1: around you like, and you're like watching everybody. Yeah, it's
- 13:27Speaker 1: like routine. It is. I went to Catholic school, so
- 13:30Speaker 1: that I'm very familiar, you know the regines. Yes, So
- 13:35Speaker 1: she's just now finding out that he takes his mother
- 13:37Speaker 1: to church every Sunday. It seems like something. Wouldn't you
- 13:41Speaker 1: ever make plans on Sundays? Are they so rigid? They
- 13:44Speaker 1: live in New York, you gotta assume they're going to
- 13:46Speaker 1: a Sunday brunch here or there. If they're in a relationship,
- 13:48Speaker 1: obviously obviously, maybe they just meet after the fact, and
- 13:52Speaker 1: he just never mentioned it seems it seems unlikely. This
- 13:56Speaker 1: is like a little bit of a plot hole. It
- 14:07Speaker 1: was one of those awkward relationship moments where you feel
- 14:09Speaker 1: like you know nothing about the person you thought you
- 14:12Speaker 1: knew everything about. This is true. I've had this happened before.
- 14:15Speaker 1: You find out that somebody is religious you're dating. Like, really, Oh,
- 14:19Speaker 1: that's a question I asked at the beginning. I've been
- 14:21Speaker 1: scarred too many times. I should have known there was
- 14:25Speaker 1: something with religion. With the title David, Samantha decided to
- 14:35Speaker 1: treat herself to a night of great music. I couldn't help,
- 14:42Speaker 1: but notice how you moved to the music. It's beautiful.
- 14:46Speaker 1: Did any of this happen to either one of you
- 14:48Speaker 1: where you're somewhere by yourself and someone comes in with
- 14:51Speaker 1: the smooth line like, I couldn't help, but notice how
- 14:54Speaker 1: you move? Has that ever happened to you as a
- 14:55Speaker 1: pickup line? Yes? Oh? Really? Am I the only one? Though?
- 15:00Speaker 1: I ran away? I literally ran away like a child.
- 15:04Speaker 1: I was like, please don't tell me your poetry about
- 15:06Speaker 1: my thighs. Please. I was once out with a friend
- 15:13Speaker 1: and a guy came up to her and was like,
- 15:15Speaker 1: I couldn't help but notice you from across the bar.
- 15:17Speaker 1: I've never seen anybody look like you before. You're gorgeous,
- 15:20Speaker 1: and we both were just like stunned. I think I
- 15:22Speaker 1: was like, Oh, this is real? Is this real? I
- 15:30Speaker 1: had a guy tell me I looked like an angel
- 15:32Speaker 1: once and I was like, nope, nope, nope, out out out.
- 15:36Speaker 1: I guess like, do you want like I can't, I
- 15:39Speaker 1: can't speak for I'm just curious, do you want people
- 15:42Speaker 1: to come up to you in public and hit on you?
- 15:44Speaker 1: But is that just like always a horrible situation. I
- 15:46Speaker 1: don't think it's always a horrible situation, but I think
- 15:49Speaker 1: because of our unfortunate society, for a lot of women,
- 15:54Speaker 1: it is like like, oh god, you must be a
- 15:56Speaker 1: creeper situation. If it's like just some random guy, I'm
- 16:00Speaker 1: always like on edge. And I kind of got it
- 16:03Speaker 1: in a fight with about this with a male friend
- 16:05Speaker 1: of mine who was like, but can it be romantic?
- 16:07Speaker 1: And I'm like, sure, maybe, but most of the time
- 16:09Speaker 1: I'm just like, please leave me alone, and I'm just
- 16:11Speaker 1: trying to exist in this world and I have too
- 16:13Speaker 1: much bad experience. So I think it's based on their
- 16:18Speaker 1: reaction if they start like continue to push or don't
- 16:21Speaker 1: go away. That's what it gets super bad. The initials
- 16:24Speaker 1: like shocking and they're like okay, thanks, and then it's
- 16:26Speaker 1: like use my, I'll go too. It's always been I
- 16:30Speaker 1: lie and say I'm with my boyfriend or I have
- 16:33Speaker 1: a boyfriend in order to get like just just shut
- 16:35Speaker 1: it all down. But yeah, typically no, it's a no
- 16:38Speaker 1: for me because that's the only way that, like some men,
- 16:42Speaker 1: you have to like evoke an imaginary or real other
- 16:46Speaker 1: man to whom you belong. You're just saying you're not
- 16:49Speaker 1: interested is not enough. There has to be right, Oh no,
- 16:51Speaker 1: I belong to another man who wouldn't appreciate this exactly.
- 16:54Speaker 1: And then I've had like show me his picture before
- 16:57Speaker 1: and then they'll say like, oh, well I could do
- 16:59Speaker 1: better than he could. I've better than he could, and
- 17:03Speaker 1: does he make you happy? And then also does he
- 17:06Speaker 1: let you have friends? How pathetic? Oh my god. Once
- 17:12Speaker 1: I was walking down the street with my partner and
- 17:15Speaker 1: some guy hanging on the street said, uh, well to
- 17:19Speaker 1: both of us, like, you know, my dick is bigger
- 17:21Speaker 1: than his, and we just like laughed and walked away.
- 17:23Speaker 1: But to this day, I regret not saying whip him out.
- 17:26Speaker 1: Let me see, dare you? Let me measure it? And
- 17:31Speaker 1: I got my tape measure right here. Let's go. I'll
- 17:35Speaker 1: be the judge of that. Amazing. I don't see marriage. Well,
- 17:48Speaker 1: how can you just say that like that? I mean,
- 17:54Speaker 1: what about my feelings? Honey, I'm a psychic, I'm not
- 17:58Speaker 1: a shrink you. So we see this. Charlotte is so
- 18:02Speaker 1: sad that Sam's found love before her that she has
- 18:05Speaker 1: to go to tarot card reader of fortune teller and
- 18:09Speaker 1: she's being told she's never gonna find love. Okay, So
- 18:12Speaker 1: I have either of you done this? No, I have
- 18:15Speaker 1: not said bridget you have though you've got like woo woo,
- 18:19Speaker 1: any of that I've had. I've had my palm red
- 18:22Speaker 1: I've done too. Um. I used to when I lived
- 18:24Speaker 1: in New York. I used to get hot stone massages
- 18:27Speaker 1: by this woman in the Lowertyst side who would also
- 18:29Speaker 1: offer like that reading while she did the stones. Wow,
- 18:34Speaker 1: that actually intimate. I don't totally believe it in it's
- 18:37Speaker 1: just like a you know, fun thing. But she did
- 18:40Speaker 1: accurately predict a relationship I would soon get into any
- 18:43Speaker 1: one of our sessions. So you tell me, oh, you
- 18:46Speaker 1: know what, I might I have had it done before.
- 18:48Speaker 1: I forgot because it was a very like blipp thing
- 18:50Speaker 1: where it was at a festival of working and they're like,
- 18:53Speaker 1: let me, let me read this for you. And it
- 18:55Speaker 1: got so intense about how dark my past was and
- 18:59Speaker 1: how much tra that I had that I was like,
- 19:01Speaker 1: we have to stop, we can't talk anymore. Yeah, it
- 19:07Speaker 1: might work, did you Annie, I wouldn't got one, but
- 19:10Speaker 1: it wasn't about relationships. It did end up becoming about relationships,
- 19:14Speaker 1: but I kept being like, that's not I think I's
- 19:21Speaker 1: gonna go jump in the shower, and then I'm all, yours,
- 19:25Speaker 1: there's nothing sinful about sex. We're back with Anderson, I
- 19:30Speaker 1: do they give Miranda. A lot of the awkward sex
- 19:32Speaker 1: scenes on the show were close up, some like awkward bodies.
- 19:37Speaker 1: I agreed. I've only I've only seen the first season,
- 19:40Speaker 1: and I'm already like he has some of the most
- 19:43Speaker 1: interesting relationships. Not to not to say that these guys
- 19:48Speaker 1: aren't great. These guys are fine, but like the standard
- 19:51Speaker 1: for Herman seemed to be lower than everybody else. This
- 19:55Speaker 1: means I'm not going to hell. Great news. Thank you, Miranda,
- 20:00Speaker 1: Thank you for saving my immortal soul. In her effort
- 20:04Speaker 1: to help, Miranda had accidentally detonated some kind of Catholic
- 20:08Speaker 1: guilt bomb. So she pretty much just questioned why he
- 20:12Speaker 1: was doing this, and that she you know, you know
- 20:15Speaker 1: this sex is not a sin, and then he just
- 20:17Speaker 1: goes off on her and then they broke up. Speech
- 20:20Speaker 1: I had. I had a boyfriend that was like this,
- 20:23Speaker 1: I feel like my church. I'm not very really, I'm
- 20:25Speaker 1: not religious at all now, but my church growing up,
- 20:28Speaker 1: it did scare me. But there wasn't a lot of
- 20:29Speaker 1: sex shaming that I remember, So I didn't have that. No. Shoot,
- 20:35Speaker 1: mine was all like you will go to hell. Yeah,
- 20:39Speaker 1: in my Catholic schooling, I don't remember a lot of shaming.
- 20:41Speaker 1: I dismember a lot of bad information, Like they told
- 20:45Speaker 1: us that like condoms didn't work. They told us like
- 20:49Speaker 1: the amount of like misinformation we were given. Uh, it
- 20:53Speaker 1: also traded among each other. It was ridiculous. I'm trying
- 21:01Speaker 1: to look at the mother than Miranda and I would
- 21:03Speaker 1: go for eggs. Look at how crowded it is. What
- 21:06Speaker 1: a sham. So we have Carrie and Miranda decided to
- 21:10Speaker 1: go spy on Big and his mother at church at
- 21:15Speaker 1: their churt. Okay, so we're coming up. Yes, So we're
- 21:19Speaker 1: coming up on the scene where I will fast forward
- 21:23Speaker 1: as I watched Mr Big standing quietly. Now, oh my god,
- 21:28Speaker 1: Oh my god, I think I fell a little bit
- 21:32Speaker 1: more in love with him. Let us pray, let me
- 21:35Speaker 1: coming together. We're out of here, Oh my god. So
- 21:48Speaker 1: it's not that big of a deal. But I ate
- 21:51Speaker 1: that scene so much because like I could feel it
- 21:54Speaker 1: like every being Oh my god, the dropping of the
- 21:58Speaker 1: book and the quiet just moments. I once accidentally set
- 22:03Speaker 1: a wreath on fire at my church when I was
- 22:05Speaker 1: nine years old during the Nativity scene. We're like lit
- 22:11Speaker 1: it up. See. I feel like this is so like
- 22:15Speaker 1: I think that Carrie really just gets in her own
- 22:18Speaker 1: head about her relationship status is. And I feel like
- 22:20Speaker 1: it really invalidates big boundaries because if I wanted my
- 22:24Speaker 1: partner to meet my parents, like just like showing up
- 22:28Speaker 1: at church when you know I'm gonna be there, it's
- 22:30Speaker 1: just like really not okay, right, Yeah, absolutely likes all
- 22:35Speaker 1: of this kind of like concerning sure, but also you
- 22:38Speaker 1: are an adult and not everything has to be passed
- 22:42Speaker 1: by your parents necessarily. Yeah, And I also feel like
- 22:45Speaker 1: people have complicated relationships with their parents and just deciding
- 22:49Speaker 1: like I don't care what my partner thinks, gonna meet
- 22:50Speaker 1: their parents just as Really it's so like, isn't that cool? Yeah?
- 22:56Speaker 1: It feels incredibly insecure to me, Like she totally has
- 23:00Speaker 1: to be like he doesn't want me in this every
- 23:03Speaker 1: part of his life. Something's wrong. I have to investigate.
- 23:08Speaker 1: Very insecure. Later that night, in the Church of Disco,
- 23:16Speaker 1: Stanford invited everyone he knew to a party to introduce
- 23:19Speaker 1: a new fragrance, fallen angel. But I have to say again,
- 23:23Speaker 1: Miranda came through. She didn't leave. She knew things would
- 23:26Speaker 1: go wrong, She knew carry well enough and came back
- 23:29Speaker 1: and sat with her. And now they're at a different
- 23:31Speaker 1: type of church where there are mail go go dancers?
- 23:35Speaker 1: Is that what we call them? Yes? Oh my god.
- 23:37Speaker 1: The nightclubs in Sex and the City in the nineties
- 23:40Speaker 1: always looked so it was like one of the reasons
- 23:42Speaker 1: that where I wanted to move to New York. They
- 23:43Speaker 1: made the nightlife and the nightclubs look so incredible, Like
- 23:46Speaker 1: they're in an old church with like shirtless, ripped gay
- 23:49Speaker 1: men dancing in suspended cages with angel wings. Yeah, come on,
- 23:54Speaker 1: so wait, did you go to clubs in New York? Oh?
- 23:57Speaker 1: My god, I like lived in clubs in New York.
- 24:00Speaker 1: I was like a I was like a feral club rat,
- 24:03Speaker 1: Like I would be like getting home like five six
- 24:08Speaker 1: in the morning. It was kind of a weird time
- 24:10Speaker 1: for me. And I still love clubs, like even though
- 24:11Speaker 1: I'm much probably too old to be there, but like, yeah,
- 24:14Speaker 1: when I was in my twenties in New York, I
- 24:16Speaker 1: was like tearing up the clubs. Yes, bush Wick. Were
- 24:22Speaker 1: they like this? No? They were never. They were They
- 24:25Speaker 1: were fun, but they were never like this. I never
- 24:27Speaker 1: found my like like unbelievable, like over the top clubs,
- 24:31Speaker 1: club like you see in technicity. But I still had
- 24:33Speaker 1: a good time. What's going on? Why are you crying?
- 24:44Speaker 1: Has a small dick? Oh, well, it's not the end
- 24:48Speaker 1: of the world. It's really small. How small? Too small?
- 24:51Speaker 1: Most sizes and everything? Well hard. Have you ever talked
- 24:59Speaker 1: to well, if you've been with a male partner, you're
- 25:03Speaker 1: any male partners, have you ever talked to them about
- 25:05Speaker 1: the size of dick? No? Never? Everyone? Are you kidding?
- 25:09Speaker 1: Like I love to be like, oh, I'm so sex
- 25:12Speaker 1: positive communication. You can't tell him a man is too small,
- 25:15Speaker 1: Like you just gotta leave him. It's just an excuse
- 25:21Speaker 1: and go, ye, there's no conversation. And I've been in
- 25:24Speaker 1: that situation. I'm hate to say, and I bet in
- 25:26Speaker 1: that situation, and it's like there was no there was
- 25:28Speaker 1: no thing to say. It just was like it's not
- 25:30Speaker 1: gonna work out to say that. You know, sizes and everything,
- 25:35Speaker 1: but in that relationship, it was like, well, this is right,
- 25:38Speaker 1: not gonna work right. Yeah, like if your relationship isn't
- 25:43Speaker 1: great anyway, and then they're like, yeah, absolutely not. This
- 25:47Speaker 1: is not the way he's going to go. She took
- 25:53Speaker 1: a cab to a part of town never mentioned in
- 25:55Speaker 1: the New Yorker. Well I ever get married? Oh, Charlie
- 26:01Speaker 1: goes to another also telling her she'll never be married.
- 26:07Speaker 1: I was told once by a lift driver I would
- 26:10Speaker 1: never be married. But I don't know where that came from.
- 26:12Speaker 1: Were they the one that like tried to come into
- 26:14Speaker 1: the house too. There was a different guy. Oh my god,
- 26:18Speaker 1: it's a different guy. But he was like, oh, you'll
- 26:20Speaker 1: never be married, based on what I think it's because
- 26:25Speaker 1: he realized I wasn't very religious. He was very religious.
- 26:30Speaker 1: I was just kind of like and then he was like,
- 26:33Speaker 1: your soul is in danger. You'll never be married. And
- 26:35Speaker 1: I was like, oh god, things I find myself agreeing
- 26:41Speaker 1: to things that like lift drivers say just to like
- 26:43Speaker 1: get home. I'm like, yep, a totally. Yeah, it's a
- 26:51Speaker 1: great conversation to be having having right back in the
- 26:53Speaker 1: car right now. I feel great about it. Yeah, that's perfect.
- 27:02Speaker 1: After he left, I cried for a week, and then
- 27:08Speaker 1: I realized I do have faith, faith in myself, faith
- 27:14Speaker 1: that I would one day meet someone who would be
- 27:17Speaker 1: sure that I was the one. Like, these are like
- 27:20Speaker 1: two moments that I have to wonder. I'm like, was
- 27:23Speaker 1: this really healthy that would make us think that there
- 27:27Speaker 1: is a one? And then there's a definitive answer at
- 27:30Speaker 1: the beginning of relationships, Like it was like it's one
- 27:34Speaker 1: of those types that I'm like, hmmm, what were we
- 27:38Speaker 1: doing here? Definitely not advocating for what we actually wanted
- 27:43Speaker 1: in communicating that clearly. Yeah, Yeah, I feel like that
- 27:51Speaker 1: idea of the one is very tricky, right. I think
- 27:56Speaker 1: it can exist, but I think we've like put it
- 27:59Speaker 1: on a pedestal that it's not healthy, and I think
- 28:05Speaker 1: it's too much pressure. It's a through line on sex
- 28:07Speaker 1: in the City because I don't want to spoil anything,
- 28:10Speaker 1: but like, um, we see that with Miranda, and there's
- 28:12Speaker 1: an episode called the One where it's like, you know,
- 28:16Speaker 1: it makes it makes it seem as though we're all
- 28:18Speaker 1: just waiting for the one and there's just like one
- 28:21Speaker 1: person and you're gonna know and if you screw it up,
- 28:23Speaker 1: that's it. And I don't I mean, I think it
- 28:25Speaker 1: can be true for some people, but I don't think
- 28:27Speaker 1: that's I don't think it's a healthy concept to go
- 28:29Speaker 1: into relate to into dating or partnership with specifically for
- 28:34Speaker 1: this show. Again, this is future, but they change the
- 28:38Speaker 1: numbers around and say you get three great loves in
- 28:41Speaker 1: your life in order to fit the individual narratives, which
- 28:45Speaker 1: is still like even in that episode, Carry talked about
- 28:49Speaker 1: how that's very limiting for her to like it's like, wait,
- 28:52Speaker 1: so I met three loves in my life? What it
- 28:55Speaker 1: is over? Um, But it's kind of funny because it
- 28:58Speaker 1: does talk very like at the very beginning, it becomes
- 29:01Speaker 1: obviously Season one is more of bringing you into the
- 29:05Speaker 1: show and and for a lot of what we were
- 29:09Speaker 1: raised with in the nineties and eighties, it is the
- 29:11Speaker 1: concept of the one whether we're talking about love or
- 29:15Speaker 1: saviors or whatever whatnot. Like that's definitely a theme that
- 29:19Speaker 1: we have clung to, and I guess we still cling
- 29:22Speaker 1: to today. Like even in Everything Everywhere, all at once,
- 29:25Speaker 1: they kind of talk about the one uh in it,
- 29:28Speaker 1: which I still love that movie, but it isn't interesting
- 29:32Speaker 1: narrative that we have to have a very specific ideal
- 29:37Speaker 1: of whatever can save us and whether it's the love
- 29:40Speaker 1: of our lives or whatever what not. And I found
- 29:43Speaker 1: it fascinating. Yeah, and I agree, like this is when
- 29:45Speaker 1: you start realizing, like Karr is not a great person.
- 29:49Speaker 1: Maybe maybe we need to talk about that this is
- 29:51Speaker 1: really unhealthy and that this shouldn't be about who we
- 29:56Speaker 1: should be replicating for ourselves or who we should up
- 30:00Speaker 1: to as what we should be individually. Yeah, I think
- 30:05Speaker 1: like the tropes we get around Romance for me, and
- 30:13Speaker 1: I would say probably for a lot of people listening
- 30:16Speaker 1: are so like that ticking clock, almost like you said
- 30:20Speaker 1: Bridget with the plane, Like there's that ticking clock. You've
- 30:22Speaker 1: got to find this person. If you don't, your life
- 30:24Speaker 1: has no meaning. I feel like it's like we're trying
- 30:27Speaker 1: to assign meaning to ourselves and to our lives and
- 30:31Speaker 1: to procreation and all of these things that might you know,
- 30:35Speaker 1: if you separate it out, might feel kind of like
- 30:38Speaker 1: very science. See this is a bigger conversation than perhaps
- 30:42Speaker 1: a sex and happy but like that idea of like
- 30:47Speaker 1: we're trying to assign meaning to these things that we
- 30:50Speaker 1: might not understand and through doing that, I think we
- 30:52Speaker 1: did that with the one. And for women, I feel
- 30:55Speaker 1: like a lot of that is you have to save
- 30:57Speaker 1: yourself for this one. And where the religion conversation comes
- 31:01Speaker 1: back in right where religion has played a role in
- 31:07Speaker 1: relationships um, particularly for women for a long time. And
- 31:13Speaker 1: like I said, I didn't have that so much, but
- 31:16Speaker 1: I've still felt it nonetheless, Like my church wasn't like that,
- 31:20Speaker 1: but I knew it existed, and I I mean I
- 31:24Speaker 1: even was like I'm gonna just find somebody in Mary
- 31:26Speaker 1: and settled down so my parents will be happy. Because
- 31:28Speaker 1: that I just felt like I'm so important that I
- 31:30Speaker 1: do this thing, and I would just fake it that
- 31:33Speaker 1: I've found the one, which is I will admit, terrible
- 31:36Speaker 1: for both me and the other person involved. And I've
- 31:39Speaker 1: moved on, but I did, I did think it, and
- 31:43Speaker 1: I think part of it is you know things like this,
- 31:46Speaker 1: which I get is good drama, like I'm not mad,
- 31:49Speaker 1: but also damaging when that's all we see and that's
- 31:53Speaker 1: what we grew up with, thinking oh, this is what
- 31:55Speaker 1: I need, or else I'm not fulfilled, or else I'm
- 32:00Speaker 1: just yeah, and it's so that only is it damaging.
- 32:05Speaker 1: I just think it's you know, I think there's humans
- 32:10Speaker 1: we want. I mean, not to get to like deep
- 32:12Speaker 1: on list because they we're just talking about sex in
- 32:14Speaker 1: the city, but I think as humans we want to
- 32:17Speaker 1: believe that there is more to our experience than you know,
- 32:21Speaker 1: the fact that we're just like balls of cells and
- 32:24Speaker 1: carbon hanging out on our rock suspended in space. Like
- 32:28Speaker 1: that's the reality, and like you can understand why it's
- 32:31Speaker 1: comforting to be like, no, there is a design, like
- 32:33Speaker 1: I meant to meet the one I meant to have
- 32:35Speaker 1: a life that looks like this, that is my purpose
- 32:37Speaker 1: because that you don't have to I think it can
- 32:40Speaker 1: be scary to just like be like, oh, yeah, everything
- 32:41Speaker 1: is random, there is no plan, Like life is life,
- 32:45Speaker 1: and like this is kind of it, and like you
- 32:47Speaker 1: make what you make of that what you can and
- 32:49Speaker 1: try to be happy. It's so much it's so much
- 32:51Speaker 1: more like perhaps fulfilling to think that like, oh, we're
- 32:55Speaker 1: put on this earth to meet the One and I
- 32:58Speaker 1: think everything goes back to like I mean, are you
- 33:00Speaker 1: just familiar with I think it's Joseph Campbell. The idea
- 33:02Speaker 1: is like the mono myth, like we we love stories
- 33:06Speaker 1: and like we have an entire like mythology around the
- 33:09Speaker 1: human experience that says, like, you know, the one hero,
- 33:12Speaker 1: like the one hero's journey, like he will the main
- 33:16Speaker 1: hero will complete their journey, and that like that is
- 33:18Speaker 1: the point of everything. And I don't know, I just
- 33:20Speaker 1: think that like life is chaos and random and stuff
- 33:24Speaker 1: happens and you got to just try your best to
- 33:26Speaker 1: be happy and there is no supposed to or should
- 33:29Speaker 1: and anybody that's that tries to like force that is
- 33:32Speaker 1: perhaps you know, understandably trying to add a layer of
- 33:36Speaker 1: meaning because it's really kind of scary to think of
- 33:39Speaker 1: it as like not really being that way. I don't know.
- 33:41Speaker 1: This is like to like I just recently watched everything
- 33:44Speaker 1: everywhere all at once, so I'm very much like the
- 33:46Speaker 1: Bagel every day. Yes we are religious episode, so I
- 33:53Speaker 1: think this is appropriate. We're good. I think all about
- 33:56Speaker 1: this because it doesn't. It ends on a somber note.
- 33:59Speaker 1: You know, we have a finale where like, oh no,
- 34:01Speaker 1: well they won't they kind of a situation obviously right
- 34:04Speaker 1: now that I won't they. Um is you know uh
- 34:07Speaker 1: Sam who came in and says she is in love
- 34:09Speaker 1: and now she's not because one aspect of something that's
- 34:12Speaker 1: very important to her wasn't meant to her standard. We
- 34:15Speaker 1: have Charlotte's seeking uh and being told constantly that no,
- 34:19Speaker 1: she's not gonna find love. But then you know, we
- 34:21Speaker 1: see her eyeing a man that she runs into on
- 34:24Speaker 1: the streets. We have Miranda who decided, you know what,
- 34:27Speaker 1: Skips not as bad as I thought he was, but
- 34:29Speaker 1: let's let's let's work this out. We have a lot
- 34:32Speaker 1: of those cliffhangers, but the conversation is the bigger, like, okay,
- 34:36Speaker 1: so what are we seeking at this point in time?
- 34:39Speaker 1: What are we looking for? And one of the bigger
- 34:41Speaker 1: things I see with especially with like the carry big
- 34:44Speaker 1: story in this portion, she's just begging him and I
- 34:48Speaker 1: get this, and I feel this to be more significant
- 34:52Speaker 1: than the people before her, which when when he says, uh,
- 34:56Speaker 1: you know, I'm not introducing my mother to another girl, friend.
- 35:00Speaker 1: You know that that wasn't obvious, Like, ow, what, I'm
- 35:04Speaker 1: just a girlfriend instead of something bigger, more significant that
- 35:07Speaker 1: I have meaning to your life. And that in itself
- 35:10Speaker 1: was a blow and I get that that's something that
- 35:12Speaker 1: I saw too. I was like, okay, yes, that part
- 35:15Speaker 1: that hurts. You want to be more. You want to
- 35:18Speaker 1: mean more to him than his exes. Obviously, you want
- 35:21Speaker 1: to be more to that partner than someone that didn't
- 35:24Speaker 1: work out. So what's the point of this? As many say,
- 35:28Speaker 1: I will say as a person who does not intend
- 35:30Speaker 1: to gate on get married, and I don't see the
- 35:33Speaker 1: significance or really care to be married. Like for me,
- 35:37Speaker 1: it's like, it's not a big deal. Move on, y'all.
- 35:39Speaker 1: If you'all work out, y'all work out. If you don't,
- 35:41Speaker 1: you don't. It wasn't meant to be. But for those
- 35:43Speaker 1: who do see that as something they want in their lives,
- 35:47Speaker 1: that's really painful. Yeah, I'm curious because again this is
- 36:12Speaker 1: my first time for you to like did you watch it?
- 36:16Speaker 1: Like was this a cliffhanger? Did you have to wait?
- 36:19Speaker 1: And also like, given what you know happens, is there
- 36:24Speaker 1: any part of you that's watching this scene at the end,
- 36:27Speaker 1: or they sort of separate and you're like, yes, I
- 36:31Speaker 1: I feel vindication and what happens? Or oh no, I
- 36:34Speaker 1: wish they had just like stay separated. Oh what a
- 36:37Speaker 1: good question. I don't know how to answer this without
- 36:39Speaker 1: giving away what happens in like in the culminative, like
- 36:43Speaker 1: sex in the City universe. I will say this might
- 36:47Speaker 1: be a like unpopular opinion. I think that, like the
- 36:51Speaker 1: end of this episode, Carrie has her answer. She is
- 36:54Speaker 1: interested in a serious monogonous relationship with Big, and Big
- 36:58Speaker 1: is not interested. And so again, any friend of mine
- 37:01Speaker 1: who was in this situation, if I was in this situation,
- 37:04Speaker 1: I would say you have your answer. Any time that
- 37:07Speaker 1: you spend waiting around for somebody who has made it
- 37:09Speaker 1: clear that they don't feel the same way, they don't
- 37:11Speaker 1: want the same thing that you want, it is not
- 37:13Speaker 1: worth your time and any extra time that you spend
- 37:16Speaker 1: on that person, you're blocking yourself from finding the person
- 37:18Speaker 1: who does want what you want. So I'm a little
- 37:21Speaker 1: bit of like a hard line absolutist that when somebody
- 37:24Speaker 1: makes it clear what they're looking for, and you're clear
- 37:27Speaker 1: on what you're looking for and there's not alignment, it
- 37:29Speaker 1: is a complete waste of time to like wait around
- 37:31Speaker 1: for them or like continue to entertain them. I think
- 37:35Speaker 1: that the majority of sex in the City fans would
- 37:37Speaker 1: might might and perhaps writers might think otherwise. But if
- 37:42Speaker 1: if if Carrie was my friend, we would have been like,
- 37:45Speaker 1: he's a bum, let's move on, Like we're not gonna
- 37:48Speaker 1: spend any more time on him. He made He's made
- 37:49Speaker 1: it clear how he feels and what he wants, right,
- 37:52Speaker 1: I think I agree, Yeah, we don't want to get
- 37:54Speaker 1: too deep into the things that come in the future.
- 37:59Speaker 1: But I'll never been team Big. I will say that way.
- 38:03Speaker 1: And when I was watching how I watched this was
- 38:06Speaker 1: never in its original intent. It was not cool enough
- 38:09Speaker 1: to have HBO. I didn't have HBO forever. I think
- 38:11Speaker 1: it came in my adulthood. I was like, oh I
- 38:13Speaker 1: can have this cool. Uh. It was definitely the edited
- 38:17Speaker 1: on CW during the daytime so episodes, so I don't
- 38:22Speaker 1: remember my initial reaction. I did feel that heartbreak also
- 38:28Speaker 1: because I was like, oh man, what's happening to all
- 38:31Speaker 1: of them? But I think it is like, like you said,
- 38:33Speaker 1: Bridget is a precursor to everything else. I'm like, you're
- 38:35Speaker 1: just digging yourself deeper and you kind of have your answer,
- 38:40Speaker 1: and I wouldn't. Maybe maybe this is just me being
- 38:44Speaker 1: selfish and tired. I would never work that hard for
- 38:47Speaker 1: this type of relationship. I'm like, God, I'm done, it's over.
- 38:49Speaker 1: It's done, it's done, moving on next labor you could
- 38:54Speaker 1: be putting into, like find anyone else who was actually
- 38:57Speaker 1: anything else, anything else, Like, yeah, I I have in
- 39:01Speaker 1: my twenties. I definitely entertained some relationship that took a
- 39:05Speaker 1: lot of work to not even get them to be good,
- 39:08Speaker 1: just to get them Like kind of fine. I feel
- 39:13Speaker 1: like if you're doing that much work like a certain way,
- 39:16Speaker 1: wouldn't you be better off by herself? Like you know, yes,
- 39:21Speaker 1: And I really wish she we got. We do explore
- 39:23Speaker 1: her a little bit as single, but she can't be
- 39:28Speaker 1: single and do her column as well. I guess you're
- 39:31Speaker 1: kind of supposed to be sex in the city kind
- 39:36Speaker 1: of thing like dating around anyway or whatever. But yeah,
- 39:40Speaker 1: I think in itself, like it builds up to something
- 39:45Speaker 1: obviously better. Again, like I said, I was never a
- 39:47Speaker 1: team big um. That was not my my thing. But
- 39:52Speaker 1: at the same time, it did build up to a
- 39:55Speaker 1: good like tug Pole I guess of who you are.
- 39:59Speaker 1: Alliance is our would but also like when you kind
- 40:04Speaker 1: of come back to the story, like they kind of
- 40:06Speaker 1: deserved each other. At the same time, I don't know
- 40:08Speaker 1: if I wouldn't want to put Carrie with anybody else either.
- 40:12Speaker 1: Oh my god, Carrie is like a little bit of
- 40:15Speaker 1: It's kind of like one of those characters. I see
- 40:17Speaker 1: this a lot, and like Laura, like Gilmour as well,
- 40:20Speaker 1: was like, oh, you're a little bit of a narcissist,
- 40:21Speaker 1: aren't you, like yourself obsessed and have bad boundaries? Okay,
- 40:28Speaker 1: well I have another question, Um, have you ever had
- 40:32Speaker 1: maybe not the airport, the Romcom airport thing, but something
- 40:37Speaker 1: that resembles the Romcom airport. We're just saying, yes, I'm
- 40:42Speaker 1: not cool like that, so I definitely don't. Oh, I
- 40:44Speaker 1: guess mine was negative. It wasn't like someone running through
- 40:49Speaker 1: an airport to like stop me from getting on a plane.
- 40:51Speaker 1: It was the the disillusion of a relationship someone that
- 40:56Speaker 1: I was dating. We were dating long distance. They had
- 40:58Speaker 1: come to see me and thinking it was going to
- 41:01Speaker 1: be like a sweet time, that romantic time. We ended
- 41:04Speaker 1: up breaking up. On that trip. He was getting back
- 41:07Speaker 1: into his car to drive the like six hours back
- 41:10Speaker 1: home to where he lived after we broken up, and
- 41:13Speaker 1: I was helping him pack his car, and he had
- 41:15Speaker 1: a hatchback, and I shut his hatchback, and I didn't
- 41:18Speaker 1: realize there was a tennis racket sticking out of a box.
- 41:20Speaker 1: And so as we're like ending this like messy relationship,
- 41:24Speaker 1: I go to shut his car in the back of
- 41:26Speaker 1: the back windshield chatters. And then when he got back
- 41:29Speaker 1: to his home, somebody had kicked in his back door
- 41:32Speaker 1: and broke it into his house. So it was just
- 41:36Speaker 1: a bad time for him. It was a bad Oh,
- 41:41Speaker 1: it was good for me. I didn't good through all that.
- 41:47Speaker 1: Who in mind, I probably thought it was like an airport,
- 41:55Speaker 1: like I'm gonna come down there and confess my love,
- 41:56Speaker 1: and it's like I'm gonna drive back with some cardboard
- 41:59Speaker 1: taped up. Wow, very much like I don't know why,
- 42:06Speaker 1: but to me, that feels like what romance actually is.
- 42:09Speaker 1: That's compared to what we're seeing in the reality. The reality. Okay,
- 42:16Speaker 1: so obviously Bridget you knew what was going to happen.
- 42:18Speaker 1: You were ready for it. Uh, Annie, Yeah, you were
- 42:22Speaker 1: half right, because there was a come to Jesus meeting
- 42:24Speaker 1: she needed an answer and she was done. She needed
- 42:27Speaker 1: a commitment. She needed to know that she was the
- 42:30Speaker 1: one and he couldn't say that, which, by the way,
- 42:33Speaker 1: future episodes will have a throwback to that. But yeah,
- 42:36Speaker 1: so congratulations. I'm gonna give you a C because I
- 42:40Speaker 1: don't have an actual marker as to degrade you because
- 42:43Speaker 1: you were completely right, but you weren't wrong. You're not failing,
- 42:50Speaker 1: so you're no. See he's not failing. He was failing, yo,
- 42:58Speaker 1: A W A W do no matter how in my
- 43:01Speaker 1: family then you know, my brother was able to get
- 43:07Speaker 1: like dollars for his CE when I was making A
- 43:10Speaker 1: and B. So I wait what because he wasn't an
- 43:13Speaker 1: f So they were very happy and he could pass
- 43:17Speaker 1: the next grade. So yes, that is passing. Technically the
- 43:22Speaker 1: college is a little different. They were like, not as
- 43:24Speaker 1: just failing. Sorry, um, but you get to see. So
- 43:28Speaker 1: we have finished season one. What are your thoughts any
- 43:33Speaker 1: I feel like I've said the same thing every time,
- 43:36Speaker 1: and I apologize for that, but it continues to be
- 43:39Speaker 1: true that I think it's odd to me. It's odd
- 43:44Speaker 1: and kind of upsetting, but also exhilarating that these conversations
- 43:48Speaker 1: still feel new to meet um like they still feel
- 43:52Speaker 1: and that's that's probably due to what I'm watching, But
- 43:55Speaker 1: like I'm constantly like, we do these episodes and then
- 43:59Speaker 1: we'll get into a big conversation about things we're still
- 44:01Speaker 1: talking about now based on what they were talking about then.
- 44:05Speaker 1: I mean, like even this, perhaps we went deeper than
- 44:08Speaker 1: they intended, but we talked about like religion and dating
- 44:12Speaker 1: and the one and all this stuff that is still
- 44:14Speaker 1: conversation topics and relationships, and I think relationships are so
- 44:17Speaker 1: messy that it makes sense to me that it is ongoing.
- 44:20Speaker 1: As I've said, this is not like the thing I
- 44:23Speaker 1: would have sought out, but I am enjoying it, and
- 44:24Speaker 1: I'm especially enjoying watching it with people and having these conversations.
- 44:30Speaker 1: I'm very curious what's going to happen next. Yeah, Actually, Bridget,
- 44:38Speaker 1: I don't know if you're gonna remember, because I don't
- 44:40Speaker 1: honestly remember. Can you kind of give her a preview
- 44:44Speaker 1: of what's coming in season two? Like a trailer I
- 44:48Speaker 1: remember if I like, don't kill me if this is
- 44:51Speaker 1: not right, But my memory is is that it's it's
- 44:55Speaker 1: pretty relatable because not so like obviously Carrie and Big
- 44:58Speaker 1: didn't work out of the episod we just saw, and
- 45:01Speaker 1: so next season is really begins with her processing that
- 45:06Speaker 1: reality and a lot of like the normal ups and
- 45:09Speaker 1: downs that come with processing a breakup, really venting to
- 45:13Speaker 1: your friends, going on some dates. Like I think, like
- 45:17Speaker 1: it's it is. I like the next season because I
- 45:20Speaker 1: think I honestly think the show is more interesting when
- 45:22Speaker 1: it's not like focal pointed around her relationship with Big
- 45:25Speaker 1: and so I think the universe gets a little bit
- 45:27Speaker 1: more complex in a way that I find interesting. Yeah,
- 45:29Speaker 1: I mean it's definitely the friendships that I like the
- 45:31Speaker 1: most and the nerd references. Did I keep pointing out
- 45:34Speaker 1: that You're like, yeah, she gets me. I'm like, what's happening? Yes,
- 45:40Speaker 1: So we do get to get to see it at
- 45:42Speaker 1: the beginning, and I really I think this is the season.
- 45:45Speaker 1: Especially Episode one is when I love Miranda the most.
- 45:48Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, Miranda, Like she is harsh and to
- 45:51Speaker 1: the point, but I've felt that way before, Like you'll see,
- 45:55Speaker 1: but it's like I relate to what Miranda is saying
- 45:58Speaker 1: so hard right now and in her book Algie, but
- 46:00Speaker 1: it's like she's someone someone finally said it. But yes,
- 46:04Speaker 1: I think that's the first episode of season two, right, Yeah,
- 46:07Speaker 1: you know, friends, she is really like a truth dropper
- 46:12Speaker 1: and you know she could have been the mayor of
- 46:13Speaker 1: New York. So thank you so much for coming on, Bridget.
- 46:21Speaker 1: I'm gonna say we're gonna have to have you back
- 46:23Speaker 1: on for season two. Sometimes. Well, this is good. It's
