Attack of the Blob

We need to talk about the pink sunnies.

This week's episode is S2E12, "Silly Love Songs." It's Valentine's Day at McKinley High and the New Directions are celebrating with those classic emotions of jealousy, infidelity, and mono. Over at Dalton, Kurt has Feelings for Blaine (duh), but Blaine has Feelings for a Junior Manager at the GAP (dang).

This episode rates a 3 on the Kevin Scale and a whopping 7 on the Klainedex. Available now wherever you get your podcasts.

00:00:02,700 --> 00:00:05,400

00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:11,000
clown car.
Or a Grizzly taking a quick dip

10
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,000
Hello and welcome back to Glee
on the Rocks.

11
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:55,300
I'm mouth, I'm Emily, I'm Andy.
And today, we're doing season 2

12
00:00:55,300 --> 00:01:01,200
episode 12, Billy little love
song, we are sitting up all of

13
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:06,200
the all of the inappropriately
holiday themed episodes.

14
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,100
Totally not in the current like
in the times.

15
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,300
We're supposed to be done in
which I think just to make

16
00:01:12,300 --> 00:01:16,300
things things even more fun.
Because, I mean, why not do

17
00:01:16,300 --> 00:01:19,900
Christmas in May and like
Valentine's Day and in June

18
00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:21,400
right?
I think it's fun.

19
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,000
Okay, it's totally fine.
So just a little bit of

20
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,800
background information in case
you haven't seen this episode

21
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,400
recently, which by the way, you
should do.

22
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:37,700
You recommend going back for
yourself?

23
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,000
Okay.
So Silly Love Songs is the

24
00:01:41,100 --> 00:01:45,100
twelfth episode of Glee's second
season and it premiered on

25
00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:50,400
February 8. 2011 Howell does
everybody feel now hopefully

26
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,800
sufficiently old.
So little summary Valentine's

27
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,900
Day has arrived for new
directions and as some members

28
00:01:57,900 --> 00:02:00,500
try to get Valentine's Andrew,
they're lovers.

29
00:02:00,700 --> 00:02:03,700
Not all are lucky.
It's been since up a kissing

30
00:02:03,700 --> 00:02:06,700
booth in an attempt to kiss
Quinn using the excuse of

31
00:02:06,700 --> 00:02:09,000
raising money for new directions
regionals.

32
00:02:09,199 --> 00:02:13,300
I pay Rachel tries to steal a
kiss from spin in an attempt to

33
00:02:13,300 --> 00:02:16,100
re-establish.
Their relationships feelings for

34
00:02:16,100 --> 00:02:18,700
Blaine begin to loosen to the
point where he is pushed to

35
00:02:18,700 --> 00:02:20,200
admit.
It after Blaine Reveals His

36
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,700
attraction to another man's.
This episode was directed by

37
00:02:23,700 --> 00:02:26,500
Tate Donovan and written by
Ryan.

38
00:02:27,100 --> 00:02:33,700
I'm just not tell little little,
I guess some extra information

39
00:02:33,700 --> 00:02:39,800
it had eleven point five eight
million viewers on the day of I

40
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,100
don't believe these in Nielsen
ratings are taking into effect,

41
00:02:43,100 --> 00:02:46,900
DVR like they do later.
Just FYI, I don't know if I we

42
00:02:46,900 --> 00:02:51,100
mentioned that but like these
are not, I believe, DVR free day

43
00:02:51,100 --> 00:02:56,000
and 7 Days numbers.
These are literally just day of

44
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,000
and in case I didn't make sense
to anybody Nielsen ratings.

45
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:08,200
Now include like digital and DVR
viewing up to a week later.

46
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,100
So If you taped it, and watched
it later, you can, if you didn't

47
00:03:12,100 --> 00:03:15,300
watch the night of technically,
you still could have, you know,

48
00:03:15,300 --> 00:03:19,100
be counted.
That is not necessarily the case

49
00:03:19,100 --> 00:03:21,200
here.
So now that we know that we've

50
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,900
all learned, something I guess
we're good for today, right?

51
00:03:23,900 --> 00:03:27,100
We're done.
Don't do anything else and

52
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,800
marker.
Take to Great fabulous.

53
00:03:30,900 --> 00:03:39,000
Those words mean something?
Yeah, some of us have had it had

54
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,800
Long week.
And did you deposit the

55
00:03:41,808 --> 00:03:43,800
clapboard?
No, that's not my job.

56
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,500
That's it.
What's your job?

57
00:03:45,500 --> 00:03:47,700
I just asked if you have to play
with it.

58
00:03:47,700 --> 00:03:52,100
Not I didn't know.
I would just like to steal one

59
00:03:52,100 --> 00:03:55,900
and just like you that.
So I get in trouble for stealing

60
00:03:55,900 --> 00:04:00,700
the clapboard.
Yeah, I have no doubt the track

61
00:04:00,700 --> 00:04:02,000
you down.
So whole thing.

62
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:09,000
So interestingly this this
episode was actually really.

63
00:04:09,100 --> 00:04:14,700
I positively acclaimed by
critics, there were a lot of and

64
00:04:14,700 --> 00:04:17,500
I went to go do some, some
research into this episode.

65
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,899
A lot of people going Glee
returns to form and I was like,

66
00:04:21,899 --> 00:04:25,400
what form is that?
This is a straight white kid

67
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:30,200
kissing each other.
That is a form and that is one

68
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,700
that they do a lot so you're not
wrong.

69
00:04:33,900 --> 00:04:37,400
It seemed like just a lot of
people were not happy in Lyle

70
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,800
and people mean critics.
We're not happy with like the

71
00:04:40,900 --> 00:04:44,600
Superbowl episode, which if
you've not listened to, you

72
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,000
should totally go listen to that
one because it's totally

73
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,000
necessary to listen to previous
episodes to know what's going

74
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,800
on.
And I'm saying that in a

75
00:04:52,808 --> 00:04:55,900
sarcastic tone of voice came
probably don't need to be still

76
00:04:55,900 --> 00:04:57,500
stood.
Yeah.

77
00:04:57,500 --> 00:05:00,100
A lot of critics didn't seem to
like the Superbowl episode.

78
00:05:00,100 --> 00:05:04,100
They didn't like all of the
crazy over-the-top theatrical

79
00:05:04,100 --> 00:05:08,400
performances and there seem to
be a lot of haze finally Works.

80
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,900
We're Tripping things down as
stripped down, and bleed as

81
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,800
which is, you know, there's a
fireworks performance.

82
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:19,600
So, you know, stripped-down Glee
and and focus on the characters

83
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,500
which reading that review just
kind of made me laugh.

84
00:05:22,500 --> 00:05:28,000
So a stripped-down Glee episode
that focus on that, I mean,

85
00:05:28,700 --> 00:05:34,700
yeah, well it focused on the
Romantic roulette wheel of the

86
00:05:34,700 --> 00:05:39,600
character it focused right?
Like it had it was Wheel of

87
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:44,300
morality turn, turn turn what
sounds of the couple and what

88
00:05:44,300 --> 00:05:46,900
we'll learn.
Yeah, like really what what do

89
00:05:46,900 --> 00:05:49,700
they call it in the very
beginning, the the love Pentagon

90
00:05:49,700 --> 00:05:53,600
of Finn and Rachel, put Quinn
and Sam of just like these

91
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,800
boring ass white people and
who's kissing who and who's

92
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:02,800
jealous about whom and whom not
who just like let's cheat on

93
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:08,400
each other, because nothing bad.
It's really, this whole episode

94
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:14,000
is just the A long con set up to
the rumors episode right here.

95
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,500
Just a little while just getting
to where they all hate each

96
00:06:17,500 --> 00:06:19,600
other.
But also, like, are there?

97
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,800
No.
Other like girls are different

98
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,500
tire.
Fucking like no.

99
00:06:23,700 --> 00:06:25,700
Apparently there are no other
dateable.

100
00:06:25,700 --> 00:06:30,100
People in the school of let's
say 1200 to 1600 kids.

101
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:31,400
Yeah.
Nobody else.

102
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:36,000
Just these.
I'm just like I know you're more

103
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,000
likely to probably date people
your friends with and our with

104
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:41,600
Your friend group because I'm
like that make sense you're

105
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,400
around them and that's like in
high school not that's how that

106
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,600
works.
But also like again go to class

107
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,300
with a bunch of people like you
don't have any other friends at

108
00:06:51,300 --> 00:06:54,100
all like nothing else and isn't
it?

109
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:55,700
I don't know.
I was in high school.

110
00:06:55,700 --> 00:06:58,800
I remember to a lot of people
randomly dating for no reason

111
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,700
that made no sense.
Just because they were like in

112
00:07:01,700 --> 00:07:11,200
chemistry together or something.
And number three, That it's just

113
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,200
all like, no only these people
in this club dance.

114
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,500
Other like how fucking incest
you?

115
00:07:17,700 --> 00:07:19,400
I have.
I have no rejoinder for that

116
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:25,200
because, yes, there are no other
people in this school is what

117
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,100
we've learned.
Yeah, kind of like cats.

118
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:33,100
I can't help Dalton has no
teachers Glee.

119
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,300
I mean, I could McKinley does
does have other students.

120
00:07:36,300 --> 00:07:38,900
As we've seen, they're just
non-playable characters.

121
00:07:40,100 --> 00:07:42,700
Literally what they are.
Yeah, it's

122
00:07:54,600 --> 00:08:00,000
beautiful.
Well, I guess we should jump

123
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,100
into some of the story lines
here, because, why not?

124
00:08:04,900 --> 00:08:08,900
We'll set new directions.
A love song assignment because

125
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,000
That makes sense.
Nothing says a great idea.

126
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:15,900
Like kids making kids, sing love
songs to each other.

127
00:08:15,900 --> 00:08:21,400
Also, you're just not very.
You're not very imaginative,

128
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,900
it's Valentine's Day.
Let's sing Love Songs, right?

129
00:08:25,900 --> 00:08:28,200
Yeah.
I just, he's not big with the

130
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,400
original.
I know he's really nice but, uh,

131
00:08:31,500 --> 00:08:35,299
well, you know, when the
couple's of the Glee Club are on

132
00:08:35,299 --> 00:08:40,600
the Rocks, they they sing Duets
and when It's Christmas, they

133
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,400
sing Christmas songs and when
it's Valentine's Day, they sing

134
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,300
love songs.
And when it's Halloween they

135
00:08:45,300 --> 00:08:49,200
saying how, you know, that's how
they do things, that's when it's

136
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:50,800
accepted.
They also sing Halloween songs

137
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,600
when it's not and it's not
Halloween but you know, yeah,

138
00:08:54,800 --> 00:09:01,600
great II want to talk about
Lauren and Puck because I know

139
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:10,100
it's the, the continual, I
guess, content warning, Yeah,

140
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,100
putting that out there.
We don't, I mean, we do try to

141
00:09:14,100 --> 00:09:17,900
separate character an actor but
understanding that there's

142
00:09:17,900 --> 00:09:21,000
probably a lot of, a lot of
overlap for some people we

143
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:25,300
understand and do not like to
talk about talk too much, but I

144
00:09:25,308 --> 00:09:29,800
do feel that we should talk
about his character a little.

145
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:36,100
And Lease in this episode I am
unsure how I feel about having

146
00:09:36,500 --> 00:09:38,900
their writers, put Lauren and
Puck together.

147
00:09:39,500 --> 00:09:43,600
Because on one hand I was like,
fuck is supposed to be the

148
00:09:43,608 --> 00:09:48,500
really cool badass kind of
character and and you want to,

149
00:09:49,100 --> 00:09:53,500
you know, have him go after
Lauren, who on many TV shows

150
00:09:53,500 --> 00:09:58,000
would seem out of character
since she's ostensibly bigger.

151
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:02,000
Quieter, not your pretty petite
blonde cheerleader, my friend

152
00:10:03,300 --> 00:10:07,600
and I don't entirely feel like
it's played for laughs.

153
00:10:08,300 --> 00:10:13,800
But I do kind of feel like it is
so it's like I it's weird

154
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:18,000
because I'm like it's not but it
is and in a very hard to tell

155
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,000
with Glee.
It is and I obviously I hate

156
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:27,600
that song that he did but I also
like that she hated the song so

157
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:34,100
I was like okay that's good
because that's problematic I

158
00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:37,700
would have liked for pup to have
been less of a sympathetic like

159
00:10:37,700 --> 00:10:40,100
that you were Really supposed to
be rooting for her to want to go

160
00:10:40,100 --> 00:10:44,300
out with him even while they
were acknowledging, but the song

161
00:10:44,300 --> 00:10:47,500
was like really shitty.
Yeah, the song is like it's

162
00:10:47,500 --> 00:10:49,500
shitty.
But like, it sounds so good and

163
00:10:49,500 --> 00:10:51,600
I'm sorry.
No.

164
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,600
I mean, he is like a good song
but it's a terrible song.

165
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,300
It was a poor choice for what he
was trying to do.

166
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,800
Yes.
It's like you could have sung

167
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,500
that song for any other ones and
maybe would have been you know.

168
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,700
But yeah for those Who are not
familiar or don't remember Puck

169
00:11:10,700 --> 00:11:12,600
singing Queen's Fat Bottomed
Girls.

170
00:11:13,100 --> 00:11:16,300
So on.
Well offensively a good song.

171
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,500
No, it's quite what he should
have been going for right here.

172
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,000
Yes.
So yeah, I just, I have very

173
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,900
conflicting opinions on Lauren,
and Lauren and Parks.

174
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:32,900
It's like, and I like that she
does stand him up and doesn't

175
00:11:32,900 --> 00:11:38,200
seem to fall for like his, you
know, bad-boy charm, which is I

176
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,100
feel like they're trying to
because like you said, many they

177
00:11:41,100 --> 00:11:43,200
want you to root for them.
Yeah.

178
00:11:43,300 --> 00:11:45,400
And tens of going.
Okay, let's go on a date.

179
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,400
You like, we'll go look some
downsides day together but we're

180
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,600
friends.
So I kind of like that that she

181
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:57,800
was forwarding expectations but
I also still sort of felt like

182
00:11:58,100 --> 00:12:01,900
it kind of played for laughs and
I'm still like slept in two days

183
00:12:01,900 --> 00:12:05,400
like I don't, I don't hate this
but I don't like it and I don't

184
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:10,600
know, I don't really know how
How to feel, but throwing it out

185
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,400
there to you guys to see it.
See what?

186
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,600
Your opinion for?
You can help me figure out my

187
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,900
own opinions in my own feelings.
Well, I tell you how you should

188
00:12:17,900 --> 00:12:20,200
feel.
I don't like me how to feel.

189
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:25,300
Yeah, I'm not a fan of it.
Okay, I feel thank you.

190
00:12:26,100 --> 00:12:29,000
I, you know, I guess I kind of
was into it.

191
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,300
I'm trying to remember how I
felt about it and at the time I

192
00:12:33,300 --> 00:12:40,400
kind of was into it just in as
like a bigger Girl, although I

193
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:46,300
had just someone and like the
aromantic Spectrum, like I just

194
00:12:46,300 --> 00:12:49,600
do not care about dating.
So I was never worried about

195
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,700
someone liking me or not liking
me, but it's like the

196
00:12:52,700 --> 00:12:57,200
representation of someone who's
coded as the hot bad boy, of the

197
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,000
school actively pursuing.
Someone who looks like Lauren's.

198
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:06,700
Isis was nice.
And then to have someone who

199
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,300
looks like Lauren's, I see, Is
not be the pathetic.

200
00:13:10,900 --> 00:13:15,100
Sad fat girl sitting in the
corner pining over someone who

201
00:13:15,100 --> 00:13:17,600
will never like her back was
nice.

202
00:13:18,100 --> 00:13:23,800
So it was the slight difference
in representation was a was an

203
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:28,200
upside, but it that that is if
you take the baggage of the

204
00:13:28,208 --> 00:13:32,900
characters away from from them
and just look at the what they

205
00:13:32,900 --> 00:13:38,000
can kind of stand for, as
figureheads of kind of somewhat.

206
00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:42,300
Her representative characters on
TV because because fat women are

207
00:13:42,300 --> 00:13:46,300
often put into these kind of
Temple categories, right?

208
00:13:46,300 --> 00:13:49,500
And like, and it's changing with
fuck me.

209
00:13:49,500 --> 00:13:53,900
What's that?
Show with Haiti frill shrill?

210
00:13:53,900 --> 00:13:57,900
Yes, where were there?
The story isn't just that

211
00:13:57,900 --> 00:14:02,400
they're a sad fat woman, living
a sad fat woman life great that

212
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,300
they have a full enriched life
and jobs and friends and

213
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:07,300
boyfriends, and girlfriends and
blah, blah blah.

214
00:14:07,300 --> 00:14:10,800
But and all those Is that skinny
hot women always get and that

215
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,400
characters, like Rachel and
Quinn, and Santana, and

216
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,500
Brittany, and that they always
have and it's not.

217
00:14:17,500 --> 00:14:21,300
Yep, it's a given rather than a
plot point.

218
00:14:21,900 --> 00:14:26,100
So in that regard, it was, I was
fine with it.

219
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,800
But then on the, you know, on
the other hand, there are times

220
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,600
where Lauren's character is
reduced to her demanding

221
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:39,500
chocolate to be wooed.
You're like well okay yeah you

222
00:14:39,500 --> 00:14:42,700
had me and then you lost me
because her being on the

223
00:14:42,700 --> 00:14:46,300
wrestling team is kind of cool
and then her demanding box of

224
00:14:46,300 --> 00:14:51,200
chocolates is like hold on.
I mean I think that's why I like

225
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:55,600
it because I'm kind of incapable
of like forgetting where the

226
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,800
story line goes which that oh
yeah.

227
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:03,300
I mean, like, it's not something
that I feel like is played

228
00:15:03,300 --> 00:15:06,500
seriously in the long run and
that just disappoints me a lot.

229
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,800
Yes, I agree.
It is hard doing a retrospective

230
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,700
of a show, but, you know, when
you can't really look at it with

231
00:15:15,700 --> 00:15:19,300
fresh eyes, because you're like,
but you are going to do X Y and

232
00:15:19,300 --> 00:15:23,700
Z down the line.
And I also, like, remember what

233
00:15:23,700 --> 00:15:27,400
I thought about it, whatever?
Yeah.

234
00:15:27,500 --> 00:15:29,800
I don't, I don't think either of
those characters left a big

235
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,400
impression on me.
And, you know, it has been a

236
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:41,000
fucking years.
I mean, I think this and in the

237
00:15:41,008 --> 00:15:43,700
end their characters don't
matter that much to the show.

238
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:48,200
Sorry it's a to the big fans of
Puck and Lauren but like they

239
00:15:48,200 --> 00:16:09,600
are not the lodestone called
And also tell us what you what

240
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,600
you see in it.
What's your feels?

241
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,100
Yeah.
That'd be, that'd be nice to

242
00:16:15,100 --> 00:16:18,200
know.
I think.

243
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,300
I mean like I said the other big
the other I mean there's already

244
00:16:21,300 --> 00:16:28,200
in my dance or song and dance
for there and then Tina's song

245
00:17:06,500 --> 00:17:09,099
Is it because Michael Jackson?
Yeah.

246
00:17:09,099 --> 00:17:13,500
But I also think the song itself
sounds crazy and I've always

247
00:17:13,500 --> 00:17:16,800
thought yes it is a little
creepy.

248
00:17:16,900 --> 00:17:19,599
Yeah.
I mean you're a pretty young

249
00:17:19,599 --> 00:17:20,900
thing.
Oh no God.

250
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,300
That just gives me the Mexico
skeevy.

251
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,900
I totally got it.
It's just like I that particular

252
00:17:27,099 --> 00:17:32,700
if I was Brittany or Tina which
I am not would respond to it the

253
00:17:32,700 --> 00:17:35,300
same way Lauren respond girls
which is like that.

254
00:17:35,300 --> 00:17:36,800
Creeps me out.
Out.

255
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,100
This is salts.
Me know.

256
00:17:39,100 --> 00:17:42,400
Mmm.
But, um, you know, I'm not done.

257
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,400
Sounds sounds like a pretty
young thing.

258
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,000
Also, remind me, how much of
Michael Jackson's lyrics are

259
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,100
just nonsensical.
Sure.

260
00:17:52,100 --> 00:17:53,900
And when you were, somebody else
in them.

261
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:58,500
Yeah, and, you know, this is not
a podcast to discuss who or what

262
00:17:58,500 --> 00:18:04,100
Michael Jackson was like that.
We cannot go into that shit, but

263
00:18:04,700 --> 00:18:07,700
yeah, see reviews podcasts.
Musical genius.

264
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,100
Yes, everything else.
Yes.

265
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,100
But also like, what the fuck are
some of those lyrics?

266
00:18:14,700 --> 00:18:18,100
Why would you Tenderoni?
Why?

267
00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:22,300
What kind of term of endearment
for any person is Tenderoni?

268
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,300
I don't think I listen to the
lyrics.

269
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,300
Well enough.
So now I'm gonna have to go back

270
00:18:26,300 --> 00:18:30,600
later and do confused.
She's like wait a minute.

271
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,200
You should really quickly look
at the lyrics because it's like

272
00:18:35,900 --> 00:18:38,000
tender Roni.
You've got to be like he's

273
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:42,200
calling her Tenderoni.
That's weird and like I don't

274
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:47,000
just call people that I don't
what I do.

275
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:52,700
I'm sorry here.
Yeah, nananana na na.

276
00:18:53,300 --> 00:18:54,600
Yeah.
I'm looking at the lyrics now

277
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,900
and I am going to go ahead and
agree, Tinder Army and their own

278
00:18:58,900 --> 00:19:01,100
it.
I mean sometimes you just you

279
00:19:01,100 --> 00:19:04,400
gotta get that internal Ridin
happening and I get it but like

280
00:19:04,700 --> 00:19:06,300
it just makes me think I'm a
pepperoni.

281
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:10,200
Beefaroni Chef Boyardee.
I know this is how much that

282
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:15,100
ends in Oni Oni.
Oh My Little Pony.

283
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,600
Genuine made a whole song about
Pony.

284
00:19:17,700 --> 00:19:20,200
So, you know which clean ever
covered.

285
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:28,900
There's a pony because he was
too busy with whistle next

286
00:19:28,900 --> 00:19:30,900
season on.
Hmm.

287
00:19:31,500 --> 00:19:33,800
Look at that.
It's a matter of time.

288
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,300
So anything else we had to say
about?

289
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:41,200
About about luck for now, pretty
and Tina, and Artie and Mike

290
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:46,000
before we get into the blob that
is everybody else has obviously

291
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:51,300
being held for later.
So God, I mean fin turned back

292
00:19:51,300 --> 00:19:54,600
into a douche canoe all because
yeah, that's the block.

293
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,500
He's part of The Blob, part of
The Blob.

294
00:19:56,500 --> 00:19:58,300
Okay, we'll get to the blob, the
white blob.

295
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,200
Yeah.
You know, Santana being called

296
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,700
out for being a bitch is kind of
like.

297
00:20:03,700 --> 00:20:06,300
Yeah, she is.
What's your fucking point?

298
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,200
I opened I'm frustrated at how
angry she got because I was

299
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,800
like, I thought you knew that I
don't know.

300
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,000
I thought that was.
Yeah.

301
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:22,200
That that was the point of view.
I thought that was like you held

302
00:20:22,500 --> 00:20:26,200
like respect and admiration for
for yourselves that you were a

303
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:27,400
bitch.
Yeah.

304
00:20:27,900 --> 00:20:30,600
It's kind of fun to see them out
of their Cheerios costumes.

305
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,400
Yeah.
That's strange and also that it

306
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,800
took this long for it.
Actually, you know, have them.

307
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,600
All right, so back to the blob,
I guess.

308
00:20:42,100 --> 00:20:45,200
I mean so good.
Skip the blob.

309
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:49,500
Make this a shorter episode
dedicated to the Gap attack.

310
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:54,300
Okay, so here, here, I think I
think we've got, there is one

311
00:20:54,300 --> 00:20:57,900
thing I need to bring up about
the blob and really good.

312
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:06,300
I mean, yeah, and it's okay for
two things.

313
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,500
You think I'm not writing it.
There I am.

314
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,300
I have no doubt.
One Quinn.

315
00:21:11,300 --> 00:21:13,400
Says, the first time I cheated,
I got pregnant.

316
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:14,900
The second time.
I got mono.

317
00:21:14,900 --> 00:21:17,500
I think the universe is telling
me something the universe isn't

318
00:21:17,500 --> 00:21:20,000
telling you shit.
Girl, you're just, you shouldn't

319
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:24,300
cheat on people that's done but
also like I can't believe it's

320
00:21:24,300 --> 00:21:28,400
taking like consequences for you
to realize that like I get that

321
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,900
you're like 16 and all and like
you maybe apparently all that

322
00:21:31,900 --> 00:21:39,600
smart but like consequences for
Action what the That's what

323
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,600
you're going to get from this.
I'm going to have consequences

324
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,200
to my actions that I just like
maybe maybe I that are going to

325
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,500
affect my health.
So therefore, maybe I won't

326
00:21:48,500 --> 00:21:51,100
cheat on people as opposed to
any other reason.

327
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:55,300
Like Quinn girl.
Yeah, not too much heat on

328
00:21:55,300 --> 00:21:59,200
people because it's wrong or,
you know, well, wrong is a

329
00:22:00,100 --> 00:22:04,600
sticky subject and ethics, and
whatever Play-Doh ethics and

330
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,400
morals.
And that's a whole podcast.

331
00:22:06,500 --> 00:22:09,100
Cast ethics of morals and
television show.

332
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:11,600
Watch the good place to talk
about that.

333
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,200
For someone else can size.
You want somebody to come and

334
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,600
talk about you that you're
showing a podcast, despite the

335
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,600
podcast you already have?
Yeah.

336
00:22:20,700 --> 00:22:23,800
Let us know.
Yeah.

337
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:28,800
Just like yeah, a lot of Glee's
moral quandaries seem to forget,

338
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:34,800
like, just be a good person
question mark, maybe like, okay.

339
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:39,500
That's Quinn.
It's questionable writing but

340
00:22:39,500 --> 00:22:42,700
also teenagers.
Often do forget that?

341
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:58,000
Yes, that is a developed sense
to me to do it.

342
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,900
So I'm just going to ignore the
consequences.

343
00:23:02,100 --> 00:23:04,800
I feel like depending on the age
of the teenager.

344
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,900
Teenagers are in that phase of
learning that things you do hurt

345
00:23:09,900 --> 00:23:13,100
people.
Yes, their brains are still very

346
00:23:13,100 --> 00:23:14,900
squishy.
Oh, no break.

347
00:23:14,900 --> 00:23:17,900
They're totally squishy.
But I believe, 100%.

348
00:23:17,900 --> 00:23:22,000
I just I think that in, as you
get older, you go.

349
00:23:22,300 --> 00:23:25,900
This is wrong because of these
reasons, and you're able to

350
00:23:25,900 --> 00:23:30,900
understand those consequences
more and as far as like and not

351
00:23:30,900 --> 00:23:33,800
ignore them, whereas when you're
younger you know, it's wrong.

352
00:23:33,900 --> 00:23:38,700
You know that there are negative
consequences I don't care.

353
00:23:38,700 --> 00:23:41,400
I have to drive telling a
three-year-old.

354
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,100
The stove is hot.
In the three year old going.

355
00:23:43,100 --> 00:23:45,100
The stove is hot and then the
three-year-old touching the

356
00:23:45,100 --> 00:23:46,600
stove and going.
Oh, that's hot.

357
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,400
Yeah.
Like there's a learning process

358
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,200
there.
So I feel like in that regard

359
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,100
even though I don't think that
the Glee writers were purposely

360
00:23:54,100 --> 00:24:00,000
saying, let's exhibit to the
formation of the teenagers, I

361
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:04,900
think they were doing a bad
writing, but I still think

362
00:24:04,900 --> 00:24:06,300
that's like the one thing that's
real.

363
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,500
Mystic about them as
sixteen-year-olds is that

364
00:24:08,500 --> 00:24:10,700
they're doing stupid shit and
hurting people and they going,

365
00:24:10,700 --> 00:24:15,800
oh my god, that hurt, you missed
completely that Glee is actually

366
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,500
about the fundamental
development of the human brain.

367
00:24:19,300 --> 00:24:22,100
Maybe we did.
Maybe that's maybe that's why

368
00:24:22,100 --> 00:24:24,500
we've been.
We've been cooking it all wrong.

369
00:24:24,500 --> 00:24:28,600
All along.
It's just really about human

370
00:24:28,700 --> 00:24:32,100
development and we've just come
at this.

371
00:24:32,100 --> 00:24:37,200
The wrong angle Shirley bom DIA.
Little Timmy.

372
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:42,100
No Ryan Murphy had like doctoral
degrees in child development has

373
00:24:42,108 --> 00:24:44,300
been a psychology experiment,
the whole time.

374
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,400
God would make that would make
Li make so much more sense.

375
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:55,300
If you also also, how Ryan
Murphy would interact with fans

376
00:24:55,900 --> 00:25:00,900
on social media.
You were quite literally baiting

377
00:25:00,900 --> 00:25:05,400
experiment this explains.
So that's going to be one of our

378
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:11,100
mint chocolate.
It's really ugly.

379
00:25:11,100 --> 00:25:14,000
Use social media should be an
entire mini episode with.

380
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:18,100
You can listen if you join my
patreon, check out our patreon

381
00:25:18,100 --> 00:25:21,700
page.
Cannot put the amount of

382
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:27,200
complaints rocking my
frustrations into a mini

383
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,500
episode.
It was going to be so many more,

384
00:25:31,100 --> 00:25:35,900
that's totally fair.
But okay, so the second second

385
00:25:35,900 --> 00:25:38,500
by second, You with The Blob and
then we can move on from it.

386
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:47,000
It is a block like it just it
really does all over everything

387
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,600
in the seventh does but also
like no.

388
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,700
No, but really, it's a know what
the fuck.

389
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,700
You're your plans, your
diabolical plan.

390
00:25:56,700 --> 00:26:00,900
I'm gonna make out with this
dude that has mono and then I'm

391
00:26:00,900 --> 00:26:05,100
going to go make out with fit
and thin is going to get Monitor

392
00:26:05,700 --> 00:26:07,800
and then he's going to pass it
to clamp.

393
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:14,400
Yeah, mono takes about a month,
incubation to have symptoms.

394
00:26:14,700 --> 00:26:17,700
It just feels like you're going,
like long-term.

395
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:23,200
Like you you thinking like long
tail plan here, kind of a thing

396
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,100
because it is not going to be
like an immediate turn around

397
00:26:26,100 --> 00:26:29,800
and they get in trouble, in
which case also also.

398
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:35,300
If Finn does get mono from you,
everybody in this school who

399
00:26:35,300 --> 00:26:41,100
made out with in Have Mana or
none of them would or which is

400
00:26:41,100 --> 00:26:44,900
the more, you know, rational
case some wood, some wouldn't,

401
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:50,500
but it wouldn't just be quit
because I'm no, no, it's no way.

402
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:57,200
So I'm just it.
I know being angered by the

403
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:02,100
scientific reasoning, in medical
reasoning, in this television

404
00:27:02,100 --> 00:27:06,200
show is dumb and I don't know
why I want to defend this hill.

405
00:27:06,300 --> 00:27:07,600
Bill.
But apparently, this is the

406
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:08,700
hell.
I'm going to die on.

407
00:27:08,900 --> 00:27:12,500
I'm just saying it's a shame and
doesn't have a parent who's

408
00:27:12,500 --> 00:27:16,400
perhaps a medical professional.
They could have informed him, he

409
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:20,000
has can't.
Yeah, you know, nurses in this

410
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:27,500
family busy with her, you know,
Night Nurse ship.

411
00:27:27,500 --> 00:27:30,000
So she hasn't had time to
parently teach him things.

412
00:27:30,300 --> 00:27:33,300
Also, don't tell me, you don't
think Carol's taught him.

413
00:27:33,300 --> 00:27:35,600
What?
Having sex led to babies and he

414
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,600
still didn't pick.
I don't think Ben really paid

415
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,200
attention.
That's a valid thin.

416
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:46,700
Just like look at people talking
and just like, I imagined it's

417
00:27:46,700 --> 00:27:50,600
like pong in his brain,
sometimes like he's scaring

418
00:27:50,900 --> 00:27:54,900
always in his brain.
So I say this liking Finn,

419
00:27:54,900 --> 00:27:58,900
sometimes I say, liking the
character, I think they kept

420
00:27:58,900 --> 00:28:02,000
trying to write him out.
Not always the character that

421
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:04,700
they actually wrote him, as it's
just like that.

422
00:28:04,700 --> 00:28:08,300
I think.
This is like occasional.

423
00:28:08,300 --> 00:28:16,900
He just looked at something and
it's just like a theme song.

424
00:28:22,700 --> 00:28:25,700
And that's all I have to say
about about the blob.

425
00:28:25,700 --> 00:28:28,500
I will, I will leave it.
We don't have to go into it.

426
00:28:28,500 --> 00:28:33,500
No, there's only there's only
one other blob thing when Quinn,

427
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,200
no, Finn.
They're so glad.

428
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:40,600
I can't tell them apart Finn
says, something like it hurts to

429
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,600
be cheated on and basically like
it.

430
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:47,200
So I want you to cheat on Sam
for me like, what?

431
00:28:47,300 --> 00:28:49,900
No, you can't.
Because he's talking to plan

432
00:28:49,900 --> 00:28:52,200
about the whole thing is, I
guess there's to be cheated on.

433
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,300
So so make out with me.
Like well you just told her that

434
00:28:56,300 --> 00:28:59,000
it sucks but you want her to do
it to Sam because you on her.

435
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:04,000
Anyway, fuck, pretty much,
pretty much.

436
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,200
All of us is either.
It's terrible, right?

437
00:29:06,300 --> 00:29:08,000
Ting or great writing for
teenagers.

438
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,800
I'm not sure.
Honestly, I don't know and

439
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,100
neither at the same time, that
sounds accurate.

440
00:29:13,300 --> 00:29:16,900
All right.
So I think it is time for the

441
00:29:16,900 --> 00:29:21,200
true meaning of this episode to
the true meaning of this

442
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,100
episode.
That's not just the Gap attack.

443
00:29:24,100 --> 00:29:28,200
There's actually there's quite a
lot of claim Proclaim early this

444
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,800
episode.
There's there's some Dalton and

445
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:35,000
there's the lima bean.
There's, there's a lot and it's

446
00:29:35,100 --> 00:29:38,100
lovely and One looks great in
their pea coats because they're

447
00:29:38,100 --> 00:29:44,500
pretending that it's, it's
February in Los Angeles and, you

448
00:29:44,500 --> 00:29:49,000
know, for a little little
kissing doggy and the cookies,

449
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,200
and the coffee orders and the
lines that ended up in every

450
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,300
single thick.
Okay.

451
00:29:54,500 --> 00:29:57,400
That is that is, that is
something I feel like we need to

452
00:29:57,500 --> 00:29:59,900
address.
I mean the whole coffee.

453
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,700
Yeah.
I mean out dress but just like

454
00:30:02,900 --> 00:30:06,100
it is really interesting to go
back and see things.

455
00:30:06,300 --> 00:30:09,300
Things or as we are as you said
before not see things and things

456
00:30:09,300 --> 00:30:11,100
like Oh I thought that was an
actual thing and then you

457
00:30:11,108 --> 00:30:17,800
realize it's not and yeah
finding the beginnings to coffee

458
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:23,900
orders you know my coffee order
also always amused that.

459
00:30:26,700 --> 00:30:33,600
Yeah yeah that's right.
It's you know it's a really

460
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,800
difficult order.
He's got there just I'm out.

461
00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:39,000
Of medium medium.
Drip, how pretentious you

462
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,500
couldn't just say coffee, how
many of us when we order coffee

463
00:30:42,500 --> 00:30:45,200
actually say drip?
Well, okay.

464
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:50,400
And also like what 16 17
year-old boy is drinking black.

465
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:54,300
Fucking coffee anyway.
So yeah, it's it's cute to kind

466
00:30:54,300 --> 00:30:59,400
of see the beginnings of
something that you think of as

467
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,800
cliche now and you're like oh
there's a pair of kind of wasn't

468
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,300
cliche because it literally just
started in this episode or that

469
00:31:05,300 --> 00:31:07,400
isn't there.
I do.

470
00:31:08,100 --> 00:31:10,900
Yeah, it's such a small thing
though, but I also love that the

471
00:31:10,900 --> 00:31:14,700
lima bean is just the gift shop.
At the Paramount lot.

472
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:17,800
That's funny.
I didn't know that and you can

473
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:22,200
you can kind of tell if you look
at the background that the way

474
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,700
they frame the shot, they're
trying so hard to only have to

475
00:31:25,700 --> 00:31:30,500
dress a very small portion of
the set because the there is the

476
00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:33,800
Paramount gift shop has like a
coffee stand, which is why

477
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,200
that's all you can actually
record.

478
00:31:36,300 --> 00:31:40,400
Fucking coffee and there's like
stuff set up to purchase but

479
00:31:41,100 --> 00:31:45,500
their shot on such tight angles
and from certain perspectives

480
00:31:45,500 --> 00:31:49,200
because it's an actual gift shop
and they can't Rebrand

481
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,400
everything in there.
So they just dress a very small

482
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,400
portion of it, because
everything else in there says,

483
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:59,700
like box Paramount, Hollywood.
I just think it's cute that

484
00:31:59,700 --> 00:32:02,700
instead of finding a set or
building another set, they were

485
00:32:02,700 --> 00:32:08,100
just like this works.
Anyway, the main point points

486
00:32:08,100 --> 00:32:13,800
whole scene is that Blaine has a
crush on a dude who is not Kurt

487
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:18,800
and it is most embarrassing,
cringe-worthy disastrous moment

488
00:32:18,900 --> 00:32:23,600
that Glee does and I hate it.
And I feel so bad for Kurt and

489
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:27,100
it's terrible and wonderful.
And there are some great quotes

490
00:32:27,100 --> 00:32:31,400
that come out of it as well,
such as the if so if he and I

491
00:32:31,408 --> 00:32:33,900
got married, the Gap would give
me a 50% discount.

492
00:32:36,900 --> 00:32:39,400
I'm not saying I think about it
often but every once in a while

493
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,100
like the Gap would, give me a 50
except Blaine shops at Brooks

494
00:32:42,100 --> 00:32:43,700
Brothers.
So, like let's not pretend that

495
00:32:43,700 --> 00:32:46,400
you chopped the Gap.
I know that was really, the

496
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:50,500
thing was like, blind, even Shop
at Gap jeans and like, did you

497
00:32:50,500 --> 00:32:54,900
even go with The Gap was before,
like, no look before Jeremiah

498
00:32:54,900 --> 00:32:56,800
started working there?
Yes, I did.

499
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,600
You have to Google where the Gap
was?

500
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:00,400
Because you did, he probably
did.

501
00:33:00,500 --> 00:33:02,700
Yeah, I think it's funny that
they were trying to act like

502
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,500
well, yeah, okay.
To be fair.

503
00:33:04,500 --> 00:33:11,300
This is before we see, Blaine's
non warbler clothes, right?

504
00:33:11,300 --> 00:33:15,800
Like this is before season 3
Blaine who was dressed like a

505
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:20,300
sexless doll.
So we don't know where he shops

506
00:33:20,300 --> 00:33:23,200
yet.
It's later where they ruin bury

507
00:33:23,900 --> 00:33:25,900
his baby bear, even blame it on
the.

508
00:33:25,900 --> 00:33:31,500
Even Blame It On the Alcohol.
Blaine is is fairly loose with

509
00:33:31,500 --> 00:33:33,200
his clothing.
Yeah.

510
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,800
So we're somewhere between
season 2 and season 3 they're

511
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,600
alike.
You got it all.

512
00:33:38,100 --> 00:33:40,700
Yes, I'm not gonna lie.
There were definitely things and

513
00:33:40,700 --> 00:33:44,300
season 3, I liked clothing-wise
because I didn't dislike some of

514
00:33:44,300 --> 00:33:48,200
the bow tie and boat shoe and
Pacino pants look.

515
00:33:48,500 --> 00:33:51,400
Sometimes it wasn't a bad look,
but sometimes it was like,

516
00:33:51,700 --> 00:33:54,300
definitely keep I.
It was just as, like I said,

517
00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:59,200
this was this, this jumped off
the rails at some point into

518
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,000
toddler them.
And I'm not sure exactly where

519
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,300
that line was, but yeah, I
wouldn't talk about it when we

520
00:34:04,308 --> 00:34:07,200
get there, but it's because they
took the One thing and then they

521
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,300
made it the whole thing instead
of like an aspect.

522
00:34:10,300 --> 00:34:14,100
They made it everything.
But yes, so Blaine obsessively

523
00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:16,699
apparently has a crush on a
person named.

524
00:34:16,699 --> 00:34:21,400
Jeremiah, who was also
apparently like an adult is

525
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:25,600
going to be.
I have no idea because all of a

526
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,400
sudden after this whole Fiasco
goes down he's like and you're

527
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,699
underage like wow fucking older
you to go on a date with a

528
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:36,699
17-year old.
Like why did you Before.

529
00:34:37,300 --> 00:34:40,500
Yeah, Heights of Jeremiah at
maybe 18 or 19.

530
00:34:40,699 --> 00:34:45,699
Maybe just like graduated from
high school in his like in my

531
00:34:45,699 --> 00:34:50,800
mind he was a lot more.
I'm assistant store manager at

532
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:59,300
the Gap while like either like
get a gap year college or like

533
00:34:59,300 --> 00:35:03,100
maybe like, you know, a
community college and working at

534
00:35:03,100 --> 00:35:07,800
home or, you know, a lot like in
my mind he was He was older than

535
00:35:07,900 --> 00:35:13,400
blind but not like excessively.
I was like to maybe four years,

536
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,600
that's about it.
Which when you're sixteen

537
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:21,100
Seventeen two or three years is,
you know, different.

538
00:35:22,100 --> 00:35:25,500
As you get older, it's like
math, but so, yeah.

539
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:30,800
Ooh, yeah, yeah, I do find as
much as I hate secondhand,

540
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:35,200
embarrassment, somehow, and I
hate s embarrassment, like to

541
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:39,100
the point of like I have You
something or I have to walk away

542
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:43,500
like I cannot I cannot watch it.
I love this being for some

543
00:35:43,500 --> 00:35:45,300
reason.
I don't know.

544
00:35:46,300 --> 00:35:50,400
I think it is over into so bad
it's funny for you.

545
00:35:51,100 --> 00:35:52,700
Yeah.
I think it's like it's like this

546
00:35:52,700 --> 00:35:56,800
is so over the top.
This is not even like this

547
00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:01,300
doesn't even ping embarrassment
because his dumps and and I

548
00:36:01,308 --> 00:36:03,800
think that's kind of where it
hits around, like nobody does

549
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,400
with.
Nobody does this nobody Please

550
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,600
his boys.
You cannot see them hand

551
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,100
gestures.
I'm making right now but please

552
00:36:10,100 --> 00:36:14,900
imagine his gay Hogwarts gross.
It is gay Hogwarts Bros.

553
00:36:14,900 --> 00:36:17,200
And is like guys guys guys,
let's go.

554
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,400
Let's go.
Serenade a dude, dude at his

555
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:25,300
place of work in our Blazers
brilliant, brilliant idea.

556
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:30,100
Brilliant idea.
Everybody also also also it's

557
00:36:30,100 --> 00:36:33,400
going to have a ton, a sexual
toy in your Endo.

558
00:36:33,900 --> 00:36:36,000
Yeah, a lot of comments about
dildos.

559
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,800
But like not actually about
those just like quietly about

560
00:36:39,900 --> 00:36:42,100
and this is brilliant and they
went.

561
00:36:42,100 --> 00:36:43,600
Yes Blaine.
Yeah.

562
00:36:44,500 --> 00:36:48,300
I just want to know like why did
why this song?

563
00:36:48,300 --> 00:36:53,700
Like what so Blaine up until now
you want to know why the song?

564
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,200
It's because Brian Murphy picked
it?

565
00:36:57,300 --> 00:37:02,000
Yeah, maybe wrote this episode
because Rabbi the song likes

566
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:04,400
Robin, Thicke.
I don't know because, but like

567
00:37:04,900 --> 00:37:10,700
what about Blaine Screams sex
toy Creeper song at this point.

568
00:37:10,700 --> 00:37:18,200
Like right now we have him
singing Maroon 5 pop hits like

569
00:37:18,500 --> 00:37:22,000
Katy Perry, Maroon 5 and all of
a sudden it's like, you know, if

570
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:26,400
you've seen it has a sunroof and
yeah, I thought it was just all

571
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:30,300
right up, female pop artist so
far is it, I guess it is.

572
00:37:31,100 --> 00:37:34,300
But it's, yes, I think it's all
been like female pop artist,

573
00:37:34,500 --> 00:37:35,900
okay?
So that's even even more.

574
00:37:35,900 --> 00:37:41,300
So, here's suddenly Robin Thicke
doing like a clearly, sexual

575
00:37:41,500 --> 00:37:47,000
creeper.
I standing by my ride Murphy

576
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,300
wanted Darren to sing this song,
reasoning.

577
00:37:50,300 --> 00:37:53,700
I think a lot of things happen
on Glee, because Ryan Murphy

578
00:37:53,700 --> 00:37:57,100
wanted Darren to do something,
and that can be another mini

579
00:37:57,100 --> 00:38:03,100
episode like that has nothing to
do with The show technically but

580
00:38:03,100 --> 00:38:07,000
it does inside my thing like
that comes down to a lot of a

581
00:38:07,008 --> 00:38:12,300
lot of songs all of his that's a
fascinating Theory rather than a

582
00:38:12,300 --> 00:38:15,500
reading of the show, right?
That is our interpretation of

583
00:38:15,500 --> 00:38:20,200
some things that happen down the
line is that we interpret

584
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:25,100
something to say.
Like, we think the given extra

585
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:30,600
extra textual information and
fandom.

586
00:38:30,700 --> 00:38:35,900
Better write that some shit
happened that we can discuss.

587
00:38:36,500 --> 00:38:37,600
Yeah.
And I think it's a bigger

588
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:42,900
conversation than just Darren
because we can look it, normal.

589
00:38:42,900 --> 00:38:45,000
And then look at Diana
situation.

590
00:38:45,100 --> 00:38:48,700
Yes, and presume that many
things happened on that show

591
00:38:48,700 --> 00:38:53,100
because Ryan Murphy made up his
mind certain way in his head.

592
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,500
Yes.
I mean I'm pretty sure Brian

593
00:38:55,500 --> 00:38:58,900
said that like he said, he's
like there was stuff that I did

594
00:38:58,900 --> 00:39:01,800
during my God.
Like, how I I reacted or how I

595
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:06,800
acted with Glee that I'm not.
I'm not, you know, proud of or,

596
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:10,000
you know, I shouldn't have done
or like the way I responded to

597
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:14,100
two how people were reacting was
not was not, you know, in it's

598
00:39:14,100 --> 00:39:15,800
not my best and I shouldn't have
done that.

599
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:17,300
It's like yeah, you think.
Yeah.

600
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:27,300
Fucking even Ryan has well that
reflection is the first step but

601
00:39:27,300 --> 00:39:32,200
I think there's I think there's
some Self admittance on his

602
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,600
partner.
Well, we may have differing.

603
00:39:36,300 --> 00:39:38,800
Like there may be different
things that he's thinking of

604
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,200
than ours.
Think a lot of that happened.

605
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,700
Ugly, that's because Ryan wanted
a thing.

606
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:48,000
Yes, for that.
Yes, so I do very repeat back to

607
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:54,100
this episode that this song I do
think is Ryan wanted a specific

608
00:39:54,100 --> 00:39:59,000
person to sing this song.
And if Ryan Murphy would like to

609
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:03,000
counter that opinion, Onion, he
is free to let us know.

610
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:08,400
Yeah, not not in a subpoena, not
in the subpoena were broke.

611
00:40:10,100 --> 00:40:13,900
Please just email us some.
So we got our email is open.

612
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:17,400
Our email is open and will also
accept DM's if you don't want

613
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,100

Yeah, I'm trying birthday.

614
00:40:20,100 --> 00:40:23,500
We have question.
Yeah, just remember him to we're

615
00:40:23,500 --> 00:40:29,700
going to start asking questions.
The other thing I did, I do want

616
00:40:29,700 --> 00:40:32,300
to ask your opinion.
Mandy Emily.

617
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:36,600
Yes, that's me.
I mean, one of those is me you

618
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:41,000
reported some?
I pink Wayfarers.

619
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,000
Okay.
Listen.

620
00:40:43,300 --> 00:40:47,900
Um, fuck.
Like no words of all.

621
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:52,000
How many here had more than one
pair of pink Wayfarers?

622
00:40:52,300 --> 00:40:55,800
Please raise your hands, the
pink Sony's there.

623
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,400
As far as I can recollect and I
might be wrong because I don't

624
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:03,300
necessarily know.
No, of RA of the other actors in

625
00:41:03,300 --> 00:41:06,000
the same way.
And I and even cutting myself

626
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,400
off already, I think there have
been some references to Leah

627
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:14,300
Michelle's prior works on the
show but like, not in the same

628
00:41:14,300 --> 00:41:18,300
way as this is a direct fucking
reference to Darren Criss as

629
00:41:18,300 --> 00:41:23,700
previous life in such as
previous work.

630
00:41:23,700 --> 00:41:29,700
It's just like like him as a
person as a well that I don't

631
00:41:29,700 --> 00:41:37,000
say a person because Celebrity
is like the person you portray

632
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,400
him him him in public public,
figure public Persona, that's

633
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:44,500
what I was going for.
Like yeah, those monies are a

634
00:41:44,500 --> 00:41:49,000
direct obvious specific
reference to public Persona of

635
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,100
Darren Criss Circa 2000.
What?

636
00:41:51,100 --> 00:41:58,500
Like 5 to 13, right?
Like they are hyper specific and

637
00:41:58,500 --> 00:42:00,700
to have them.
They're not just sitting like in

638
00:42:00,700 --> 00:42:02,700
the back.
Run on a table somewhere like a

639
00:42:02,700 --> 00:42:07,500
Game of Thrones coffee cup.
Like they are used in the

640
00:42:07,500 --> 00:42:13,800
episode picked up they are put
on Prop very much used prop

641
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:19,100
Center frame like boom.
This is not just laid, right?

642
00:42:23,500 --> 00:42:27,700
Yeah.
And pulled him out of his purse

643
00:42:27,700 --> 00:42:31,400
and they were like here, put
these on like well I don't Don't

644
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,100
even when that aired, I remember
people being like, well, one

645
00:42:35,100 --> 00:42:39,300
screaming on Tumblr and Twitter
and being like, Oh my God, star

646
00:42:39,300 --> 00:42:43,200
kid.
But also like what like why why

647
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,800
did that happen?
What was the wrong kind of be

648
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,600
like?
This is very clearly

649
00:42:48,900 --> 00:42:52,800
highlighting that this character
is played by Darren Criss in a

650
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:56,800
way that the other characters
are not highlighted as being

651
00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,900
played by a specific actor.
Rachel Berry is not highlighted

652
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:04,600
Just being Rachel Berry played
by Lea Michele.

653
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,400
She's not bringing she's not
Rachel.

654
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:12,700
Berry who is sometimes
referenced as being brought?

655
00:43:12,700 --> 00:43:14,400
You know.
It's like I can't even think of

656
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:19,000
other know you never.
You never got a Lea Michele

657
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,400
shout out from Rachel.
Yeah.

658
00:43:21,500 --> 00:43:24,400
Like Rachel never said or did
things that was like, Hey, shout

659
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,600
out to literally who I am so I
was just thinking I could this

660
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:31,100
episode, they reference.
There's a whole thing about Out

661
00:43:31,100 --> 00:43:34,000
how Santana says that she's only
ever going to star in.

662
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:35,900
Like what was it?
A Broadway adaptation of the

663
00:43:35,900 --> 00:43:39,400
willow like that was close
enough because it was Broadway

664
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,700
and Thea has been on Broadway.
But they don't even they could

665
00:43:42,700 --> 00:43:45,300
have said that she would only
ever be on Spring Awakening

666
00:43:45,300 --> 00:43:47,200
because that's the only Broadway
show she's ever done.

667
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,900
Like they don't even believe in
you Spring Awakening.

668
00:43:49,900 --> 00:43:53,800
Like they don't even have her
doing the fit.

669
00:43:53,900 --> 00:43:57,600
No.
All I get is very right and that

670
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,800
is such a broad.
Who doesn't like what what?

671
00:44:01,100 --> 00:44:03,800
Broadway person doesn't love
Barbra Streisand's so even that

672
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:07,100
we even the both Lea Michele and
Rachel Berry love Barbra

673
00:44:07,100 --> 00:44:13,200
Streisand doesn't make it a
Rachel Berry specific, right?

674
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:18,000
Like if Tina cohen-chang was
also like oh I also like Barbra

675
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:19,800
Streisand.
You'd like that's not for you.

676
00:44:20,300 --> 00:44:24,200
If another character put on a
fucking pair of pink Wayfarers.

677
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,900
You'd be like, why?
No Why are you trying to cop

678
00:44:27,900 --> 00:44:30,800
that?
Yeah, it's just, it's it's so

679
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,000
specific.
It's not and it's another.

680
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,400
One of those things that I want
to bring up in our multi-layered

681
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:40,000
conversation.
We have about like how the like

682
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:44,600
Ryan specifically Blurred Lines
with the show.

683
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:48,100
Yeah, it sort of.
So we may end up having to cut

684
00:44:48,100 --> 00:44:51,100
some of this out.
So, apologies, I'm going to just

685
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:55,300
as a note to all listeners, this
gets choppy, we apologize.

686
00:44:55,300 --> 00:44:58,900
It's because occasionally Veer
off into things that we feel

687
00:44:58,900 --> 00:45:04,600
like it become not appropriate
to are and we apologize.

688
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,400
But we sudden we sometimes find
ourselves talking about things

689
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:13,500
that we feel like we shouldn't
are for our own sake you know

690
00:45:13,500 --> 00:45:16,300
necessarily make sense within a
comment like a podcast.

691
00:45:16,300 --> 00:45:18,700
That's about good.
Yeah.

692
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:21,400
Yeah.
So if it gets choppy because I'm

693
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:23,900
not necessarily that graded
editing yet so I'm sorry.

694
00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,400
We're working on it working on
Learning.

695
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:33,800
But one of the things that
obviously came out of of Glee

696
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:40,800
was a very large real person
shipping, you know, society,

697
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:46,000
which is for a lot.
I mean, I know Heather and Nia

698
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:50,300
got it a lot and then Diana.
I got a lot of pressure when she

699
00:45:50,300 --> 00:45:52,000
wore the shirt at those likes
girls.

700
00:45:52,100 --> 00:45:56,900
Oh yeah.
And there's obviously Darren and

701
00:45:56,908 --> 00:46:00,300
Chris were huge for a while and
then I think the Darren and cord

702
00:46:00,300 --> 00:46:03,100
was for a while and then Darren
and Leah.

703
00:46:03,500 --> 00:46:08,600
And then I, I know a lot of
said, Darren wants a parent was

704
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,500
there was really was a fan of
life and Darren.

705
00:46:10,500 --> 00:46:13,100
And Diana were one for a while.
He was the kind of bicycle for a

706
00:46:13,100 --> 00:46:14,800
while.
So he went through her a lot.

707
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:23,300
And I think part of the problem
that I do, believe our RPF will

708
00:46:23,300 --> 00:46:24,900
happen.
Carlos.

709
00:46:24,900 --> 00:46:30,100
And I think that I know I'm very
very oh yeah, go figure public.

710
00:46:30,100 --> 00:46:33,600
Personas are perceived as as
characters by people.

711
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:37,500
I mean surprise, I firmly
believe in a fourth wall and

712
00:46:37,500 --> 00:46:41,600
that wall should be sturdy and
held up and maintains but

713
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:46,900
between sansthan and celebrities
and or the things that they're,

714
00:46:46,900 --> 00:46:52,100
they're fannish about.
But I think part of the problem

715
00:46:52,100 --> 00:47:01,300
we had with our PS1, how Ryan
Blurred Lines in the show and

716
00:47:01,300 --> 00:47:07,400
that made it being to some
people like either we can bring

717
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:12,600
it to those actors or we can
show it to, you know, the people

718
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:16,500
like show it to Ryan, show it to
whoever or or, or actually talk

719
00:47:16,500 --> 00:47:21,400
to them about it because Ryan is
is literally blowing that line

720
00:47:21,700 --> 00:47:25,900
now or you know, it just It ends
up being like, hey, some people

721
00:47:25,900 --> 00:47:28,000
are going to start talking about
and being excited about it.

722
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,200
And then other people are just
kind of going to go crazy, and

723
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:32,500
we're going to end up having
this entire fandom or between

724
00:47:32,500 --> 00:47:35,000
each other.
But anyway, I think a lot of it

725
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:40,800
stems from Gray areas and
Boundary crossings that Ryan did

726
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:46,100
because I don't, you're not
supposed to blend a character

727
00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:50,000
and an actor and this way and I
don't and I don't know if that

728
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,200
this time, they still thought
blame was just sort of a

729
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:53,900
one-off.
I'm starting to think at this

730
00:47:53,900 --> 00:47:55,500
point.
It simply wasn't.

731
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,900
But like, even if he was like,
oh, he's just going to be a

732
00:47:57,900 --> 00:48:00,700
one-off character is going to go
away soon, and this is just kind

733
00:48:00,700 --> 00:48:04,900
of a funny thing, a wink at the
fans, like I get it, but at the

734
00:48:04,900 --> 00:48:09,200
same time like that you're
breaking a wall there that needs

735
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:13,300
to be there that like between
like reality and and your show.

736
00:48:13,300 --> 00:48:16,300
And there's a certain amount of
that I think you can do that's

737
00:48:16,300 --> 00:48:18,700
tongue-in-cheek.
And, and, you know, you know,

738
00:48:18,700 --> 00:48:24,300
wink wink nudge nudge, but he
starts here and I think of This

739
00:48:24,300 --> 00:48:27,100
had left it here.
It would have probably been fine

740
00:48:27,300 --> 00:48:32,700
but as we know he does it a lot
and so you end up having a lot

741
00:48:32,700 --> 00:48:36,900
of people read into script to me
like what does this mean?

742
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,100
And sometimes it didn't really
mean anything but you don't know

743
00:48:40,100 --> 00:48:42,500
that because he does shit like
that.

744
00:48:42,700 --> 00:48:45,800
And so and I don't know if that
was a deliberate liberal

745
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:50,900
deliberately a just supposed to
be like a fun Pro to the fan or

746
00:48:50,900 --> 00:48:56,600
if it's just him peeing.
The, you know, kind of, I like

747
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:59,200
to stir the pot, which I firmly
believe most people.

748
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:02,000
It's like, he just likes to feel
like the set of Firework and

749
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:05,400
like, throw it and then just
like, run away and watch them,

750
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:09,400
legally grinder, create that
kind of a person can hate.

751
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:13,400
Sometimes it's fun to do that,
but I feel like he's right here

752
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,000
and a lot of his television
shows that way.

753
00:49:16,900 --> 00:49:23,300
Yeah, inevitably I find that
this this just it's strange,

754
00:49:23,300 --> 00:49:24,900
it's weird.
It Makes no sense.

755
00:49:24,900 --> 00:49:30,600
I don't understand why Blaine
has a has a like or what by

756
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:36,000
Blaine Darren has a very overt.
Shout out to somebody that as

757
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:38,600
many of us in fandom are are
well aware.

758
00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:42,000
There are their key items.
I mean I go so far to say

759
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:45,900
they're like totems for certain
people where it's like when you

760
00:49:45,900 --> 00:49:48,300
saw like a Diet Coke can you're
like that?

761
00:49:48,300 --> 00:49:53,000
Is referencing a person.
Yeah, with them within a fandom.

762
00:49:54,900 --> 00:49:58,500
Respective them and and pink
sunglasses were not.

763
00:49:58,700 --> 00:50:01,600
And that was how closely tied to
Darren.

764
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:05,400
They were.
And so it's just very it is

765
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,600
makes for we, but then also, but
wait, yes.

766
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:13,600
And I'm, I'm sure there are
things other actors have other

767
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,300
totems.
As you put it, that would have

768
00:50:16,300 --> 00:50:18,500
pinged on other shows.
I don't know what they would

769
00:50:18,500 --> 00:50:22,400
have been, right?
Like yeah, I'm not as I'm not as

770
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:25,600
well versed in another people.
I'm saying the same thing.

771
00:50:25,900 --> 00:50:27,900
Yeah.
Like, if an actor on another

772
00:50:27,900 --> 00:50:29,800
show, had a thing that was their
thing.

773
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:33,900
And that thing thing to think,
think think showed up on their

774
00:50:33,900 --> 00:50:38,000
TV show, I think it would have
the same weird crossing the

775
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:44,500
streams of like, what why that
person on the show should not be

776
00:50:44,500 --> 00:50:48,500
wearing Nike like their
signature Nike vojvoda?

777
00:50:48,500 --> 00:50:51,900
Like, that's not, that's not the
stuff part of the show, that

778
00:50:51,900 --> 00:50:58,600
that's the actor. that's not
yeah and I think it does fall

779
00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:04,100
into this kind of long it's a
hard to know if it's a

780
00:51:04,100 --> 00:51:11,100
long-standing tradition of the
fan celebrity bridge and Chasm

781
00:51:11,500 --> 00:51:17,700
of you know, the way the way we
idolize and id8 people who are

782
00:51:17,700 --> 00:51:25,400
in certain positions of
authority and honor and And

783
00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:29,600
that's a whole like Master's
thesis, right of the way.

784
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:33,300
We look at, I can't even get
into all of that.

785
00:51:33,300 --> 00:51:35,600
But like, it's why we have
celebrities, right?

786
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:38,200
We put certain people on
pedestals and we do it for

787
00:51:38,500 --> 00:51:43,900
reasons, Beyond a lot of
comprehension, but the way

788
00:51:44,100 --> 00:51:50,400
celebrity works these days is
that the chasm of attainability

789
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:54,500
and accessibility is very
narrow, and a lot of It has to

790
00:51:54,500 --> 00:51:59,200
do with social media and that
the distance felt between you

791
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:03,400
and the person that you see on
TV or a magazine, or whatever

792
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:07,200
the fuck, whatever media it is,
doesn't feel as wide anymore

793
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:12,000
because you can literally talk
to them in real time or someone

794
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:13,900
that you think is them.
It's really their social media

795
00:52:13,900 --> 00:52:18,400
team, but someone you think is
them in real-time two inches

796
00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:21,200
from your face, on your phone
and it feels like a relationship

797
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,800
and it's not And then that's the
actor.

798
00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,900
And then you see that person on
TV and it's their same face and

799
00:52:27,900 --> 00:52:29,300
it's the same fucking
sunglasses.

800
00:52:29,300 --> 00:52:31,300
And it's a character, but it's
not, and it's them, and it's

801
00:52:31,300 --> 00:52:34,200
not.
And your brain is not as smart

802
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:35,500
as you think it is.
And it's all right.

803
00:52:35,500 --> 00:52:39,200
It's just media considerable.
Yeah.

804
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:41,700
It's our brains are not that
smart right and media

805
00:52:41,700 --> 00:52:44,900
consumption.
It's hmm, I don't know how to

806
00:52:44,900 --> 00:52:48,200
like phrase it because it all
just tumbles together but it's

807
00:52:48,500 --> 00:52:51,700
it is very confusing a lot.
There's a lot, there was a lot

808
00:52:51,700 --> 00:52:53,000
there for your mom.
Brain.

809
00:52:53,100 --> 00:52:56,100
It's a lot for your money, green
and your lizard brain just to be

810
00:52:56,100 --> 00:52:58,300
like person.
I like person.

811
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:03,700
Let's talk to person and it, I
think it does make these fans of

812
00:53:03,700 --> 00:53:08,400
lines, very easily crossed in
ways, they should not be.

813
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:12,400
And a lot of this was happening
around this time where you'd see

814
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:16,500
these like Tumblr posts and
Twitter posted, like don't tag

815
00:53:16,500 --> 00:53:21,000
the actor in your fucking posts.
Don't send your fanfic.

816
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:23,900
Don't send your fan art do.
Don't send your shit to the

817
00:53:23,900 --> 00:53:26,700
actor.
It's not the same person, right?

818
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:31,600
And the fact that you still need
to tell people, don't send them

819
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:36,600
shit speaks to that problem of
accessibility.

820
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,200
You should never have you.
I feel like, I mean, we're all,

821
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:42,400
so old as fuck now.
But like, we shouldn't have to

822
00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:46,500
tell people.
Don't send them your stuff.

823
00:53:46,900 --> 00:53:54,500
Don't, I mean is about you.
Our experience of the thing,

824
00:53:55,300 --> 00:53:59,400
it's not about you pulling that
person into your experience of

825
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:04,600
the thing until you go to like a
convention and a convention has

826
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:06,900
its own set of rules and
regulations or are going to talk

827
00:54:06,900 --> 00:54:11,700
about that shit Murphy.
Well it is like really something

828
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:16,200
he has changed to know because a
lot of the celebrities now are

829
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:21,100
the purse, like the brands are
people not characters.

830
00:54:21,100 --> 00:54:22,000
Not.
Yeah.

831
00:54:22,500 --> 00:54:25,200
TV show proper.
That's a problem.

832
00:54:25,300 --> 00:54:29,700
I very yeah, I mean I definitely
think it is as someone who is

833
00:54:29,700 --> 00:54:32,000
in.
Oh, yeah, Vidya fandom.

834
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:35,200
Where I look look at the lines
that are blurred and I'm like, I

835
00:54:35,207 --> 00:54:37,300
don't like that.
Yeah, I don't like that.

836
00:54:37,700 --> 00:54:44,800
And, and like that this time
Murphy was kind of like pulling

837
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:49,500
the lines apart in ways or like,
if you have, if let's use like a

838
00:54:49,500 --> 00:54:52,400
supernatural reference, if you
had like a salt circle around,

839
00:54:52,500 --> 00:54:56,200
Sounds fandom write like this,
is our protective Circle and

840
00:54:56,500 --> 00:54:58,500
going to keep our shit.
Our shit and you keep your real

841
00:54:58,500 --> 00:55:00,600
life, your real life Murphy
would come along and just be

842
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:03,700
like, no, we're gonna put some
pig son, he's right in that same

843
00:55:03,700 --> 00:55:07,700
like, wow, but now now you're
telling us that's Darren, but

844
00:55:07,700 --> 00:55:09,100
it's playing but it's Darren,
but it's not.

845
00:55:09,100 --> 00:55:11,700
And how do we?
We meaning like the Royal we not

846
00:55:11,700 --> 00:55:14,400
like you and I and us, but
right.

847
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,300
Right, right.
Where are ya, guys?

848
00:55:17,400 --> 00:55:22,300
I feel like he's yeah, he's kind
of blowing blowing.

849
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:25,400
Little bit on that salt Circle,
that's I always wondered if he

850
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:28,900
did it intentionally and
maliciously or if he did it

851
00:55:29,300 --> 00:55:31,900
because he didn't fucking
understand fans.

852
00:55:31,900 --> 00:55:36,400
Mm, I often felt of two minds
about it and maybe this needs to

853
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:40,400
be its own fucking extra episode
because there's a lot of it and

854
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:43,300
it's like planes hair and the
way the characters are treated

855
00:55:43,300 --> 00:55:46,000
and all this other kind of
stuff, like the way Kurt gets

856
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:51,300
treated and I, it's like I could
never tell and I'm, I still

857
00:55:51,300 --> 00:55:56,500
can't tell and It's like the
ugly Brazil, Twitter like did

858
00:55:56,500 --> 00:55:59,700
Murphy do some of these things
intentionally and maliciously

859
00:55:59,700 --> 00:56:04,200
knowing what the reactions were
going to be, or did he just not

860
00:56:04,300 --> 00:56:10,400
understand the way fandom works.
And the way the way to fandom

861
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:18,800
operates as a Blobby Amorphis
non non singular Mass because

862
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:21,200
everyone's different.
No, it's the same and everyone

863
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:24,300
but it all kind of like But
lives together and doesn't then

864
00:56:24,300 --> 00:56:26,800
it kind of like well tendril
goes out and does one thing and

865
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,600
comes back and everyone just
kind of like but that was a long

866
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:33,100
together down the street and I
could never separate argument.

867
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:36,200
No, please.
Someone because I just I'm still

868
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:37,500
just like, I don't know, I was
an asshole.

869
00:56:37,500 --> 00:56:39,700
Is he stupid?
I don't know II.

870
00:56:39,700 --> 00:56:44,200
Think he made the mistake, a lot
of people make and that he likes

871
00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,800
the positive attention from a
fandom a lot.

872
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:52,000
And then I could turns into a
toddler when he inevitably.

873
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:55,800
Encounters the fact that for all
of the positive attention,

874
00:56:55,800 --> 00:57:01,000
you're going to like hit the
backlash to was I don't want to

875
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:03,300
go too far into the him on
social media thing because I do

876
00:57:03,300 --> 00:57:05,100
think we should do a separate
episode about that.

877
00:57:05,100 --> 00:57:11,200
But yeah and I think in this
case, with the actor, kind of

878
00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:15,700
crossover things on Glee, he got
the positive tension and he

879
00:57:15,700 --> 00:57:20,100
liked that, but the backlash
went more to the actor's life

880
00:57:20,100 --> 00:57:22,300
story.
That's the thing too.

881
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:24,900
So it there may have been Rock
of aware.

882
00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:31,000
Yeah, I think I think I think
the pink Sonny's thing was just

883
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:35,000
a throwaway whether it was Ryan
wrote it as a as a like haha,

884
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:38,100
that'd be funny.
Whether Darren was like I'll put

885
00:57:38,100 --> 00:57:40,800
these in with and like they're
like sunglasses on his like, how

886
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:43,000
I'll put my use mine and they're
like, yeah, that's funny.

887
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:45,500
Go into that.
I honestly think that the

888
00:57:45,500 --> 00:57:47,400
sunglasses reference was an
innocent.

889
00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:51,800
Like we think it'd be funny.
We think it'll be like a fans

890
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:54,400
will enjoy Though they'll get it
at, they get it at, they don't,

891
00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:57,700
they won't, it won't be a big
deal, but I do think there was a

892
00:57:57,700 --> 00:58:02,500
reaction to it.
That then proceeded to lead to

893
00:58:02,500 --> 00:58:05,600
more why they didn't with
bearings and Blaine.

894
00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:08,600
I think it's because that safe
as opposed to Rachel, which is

895
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:13,100
like, she's oh, she's a not a
not a space character at that

896
00:58:13,100 --> 00:58:14,700
point.
She was like, Hey, like now

897
00:58:14,700 --> 00:58:17,200
that's like carbon farming are a
character now.

898
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:19,600
She's like, Arlene.
We can't really, we're not going

899
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:22,200
to do anything that could like,
you know, throw a fork.

900
00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:25,500
Characterization.
Everything kind of the entire

901
00:58:25,500 --> 00:58:28,600
Glee live tour.
Was a weird mix of like, yeah.

902
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:30,100
God, that was, but then came
out.

903
00:58:30,100 --> 00:58:32,300
Didn't that?
Oh, you're different.

904
00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:35,600
Yeah.
And I'm saying that, like, after

905
00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:38,000
the thing was there and like, it
was a reaction, like they did

906
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:42,600
kind of move on to like wrapping
it up and I think and I think

907
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:45,600
that's when they got, they start
to get the reaction and then

908
00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:47,700
they get big, they're going to
lean into it and they're going

909
00:58:47,700 --> 00:58:49,700
to go and somewhere around
there.

910
00:58:49,700 --> 00:58:57,800
They decided to use fandom as A
movement of marketing and away.

911
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,700
And so it, which is a really
interesting because the idea

912
00:59:01,700 --> 00:59:05,100
that 20% of your audience is
going to be like, 80% of your

913
00:59:05,100 --> 00:59:09,500
Revenue, was very appropriate
and the terms of Glee and the

914
00:59:09,500 --> 00:59:13,300
sense that you had a very, very,
very small but passionate fan

915
00:59:13,300 --> 00:59:16,000
base and they're going to, we're
going to, we're going to Pander

916
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:17,800
to them.
Now, the pandering that they did

917
00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:23,100
to us wasn't always preparing we
wanted, but I and I I think that

918
00:59:23,100 --> 00:59:26,000
comes down to we're going to
we're going to create an entire

919
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:30,500
marketing strategy and idea
based around fandom without

920
00:59:30,500 --> 00:59:35,500
fully realizing what and how
fandom is and how it reacts.

921
00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:38,100
And in some ways it's going to
do exactly what you want it to

922
00:59:38,100 --> 00:59:40,200
do.
And in some ways it's not going

923
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:43,600
to be predictable at all because
we don't even know how to like

924
00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:46,200
it works.
But I do think that this is an

925
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:50,600
entire we've already gone down
like a rabbit hole but I think I

926
00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:51,800
think yeah.
Continue.

927
00:59:52,400 --> 00:59:56,400
So it's a way of saying, I know.
Yeah, I just, you know, really

928
00:59:56,400 --> 00:59:59,800
I'm like, I think this this
cross the line, I think it was

929
00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:05,100
an innocent line, how it meant
for this episode, but I do think

930
01:00:05,100 --> 01:00:09,400
it was blurring that, that salt
line, that fork ball.

931
01:00:09,900 --> 01:00:15,600
It was, it was starting
something that that made Glee as

932
01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:18,700
a fandom worse.
Particularly different.

933
01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:21,400
It worth but different.
Yeah.

934
01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:24,600
How people read?
Responded and reacted to both

935
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:29,700
characters and actors.
And not and not, it just being

936
01:00:29,700 --> 01:00:34,700
fandom specific, but like taking
fandom to people because you're

937
01:00:34,700 --> 01:00:36,600
starting to blur your starting
to blur.

938
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:39,300
A lot of that.
And I'd love to be able to go,

939
01:00:39,300 --> 01:00:43,000
hey, check out the rest of our
like conversation about those on

940
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:45,900
our mini episode because we are
definitely going to go into

941
01:00:45,900 --> 01:00:49,200
this.
Yeah, it may be more than a mini

942
01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:52,200
episode that may end up being a
either a several parts.

943
01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:57,300
Series that will be on our
patreon probably well or longer.

944
01:00:57,300 --> 01:01:00,400
But yes, we will be.
I think it's safe to say that we

945
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:04,600
will be doing at least several
mini episodes on our patreon on

946
01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:06,600
the front of.
Because this about this cap

947
01:01:07,100 --> 01:01:11,800
there's no is we all have
extensive experience in gliese

948
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:18,500
tandem in how it reacted, but
ruined our lives been, we've all

949
01:01:18,500 --> 01:01:24,100
been in multiple their fandom
both From for many different

950
01:01:24,100 --> 01:01:27,800
types of properties and actors
and people.

951
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:31,900
So it's like it's it's
interesting how this was sort of

952
01:01:31,900 --> 01:01:34,900
a weird and now we work
different.

953
01:01:35,300 --> 01:01:42,300
Now we're in the, we fucked up,
maybe we'll get some other Glee

954
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:47,100
refugees to talk with us to then
be nice.

955
01:01:47,100 --> 01:01:50,600
I don't really like to talk to
Kevin and Jenna eventually at

956
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:52,200
some point.
I say a vessel.

957
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:54,500
That's going to happen.
We're not that cool.

958
01:01:55,400 --> 01:01:58,300
I hope we're not that cool.
We don't have a downloads for

959
01:01:58,300 --> 01:02:01,400
that.
People, please extensively

960
01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:05,000
download our podcast so that we
look really, really cool.

961
01:02:05,300 --> 01:02:07,200
So they want to come back to us
because we get.

962
01:02:07,300 --> 01:02:09,300
So if I smoke I just have a
couple questions.

963
01:02:09,300 --> 01:02:12,000
I'd love to ask, I just want
some clarification about

964
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:14,800
everything but I'd be great at
everything here to clarify

965
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:21,800
everything that the entire to
jump it all back into love

966
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:26,600
songs.
I'm actually surprised that

967
01:02:27,500 --> 01:02:30,700
Emily you've not brought up what
I thought you would have brought

968
01:02:30,700 --> 01:02:33,400
up as the most important point
of this episode.

969
01:02:33,700 --> 01:02:39,600
Oh shit, is it when Kurt / Chris
accidentally feels uh, plane /,

970
01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:40,900
Darren.
No.

971
01:02:40,900 --> 01:02:43,500
But I did not see that and
you're going to tell you, I

972
01:02:43,500 --> 01:02:45,000
mean, I have to tell you, I have
you talk more about that in a

973
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:50,800
minute.
Is it, is it that you mock us

974
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:52,100
sir?
Nope.

975
01:02:52,700 --> 01:02:54,900
What is it Kurt?
Doodling, in his notebook.

976
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:57,400
Nope.
Is it just the lines, you know,

977
01:02:57,400 --> 01:02:58,800
my coffee order.
Of course I do.

978
01:02:59,300 --> 01:03:07,400
Nope, I don't know.
Junior number Blaine Anderson.

979
01:03:07,500 --> 01:03:13,400
Oh yeah.
I assumed I think when I heard

980
01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:16,200
that I was like that's going to
be the point of this entire

981
01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:19,600
episode.
I didn't even associate that

982
01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:21,700
with grade.
I didn't either, I didn't

983
01:03:21,700 --> 01:03:24,500
associate It with his grade.
I Associated it with that.

984
01:03:24,500 --> 01:03:27,300
He wasn't the most senior like
that.

985
01:03:27,300 --> 01:03:29,600
He wasn't on the Warblers.
The longest.

986
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:32,200
Okay, thanks for me.
I think it's like, yeah, you're

987
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:34,400
a junior member because you're a
junior.

988
01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:40,700
Oh no, I said senior member, no.
Ok, so here's here's okay.

989
01:03:40,700 --> 01:03:42,800
I don't know if this is like
overly complicated, but here is

990
01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:47,700
my thought process about Junior
member like like Junior member

991
01:03:48,100 --> 01:03:53,700
Laine, warbler Anderson Cooper.
Probably since Blaine warbler,

992
01:03:53,700 --> 01:03:55,800
doesn't he just use a plain
Anderson?

993
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,600
No I don't even know when
Anderson actually ever shows up

994
01:03:58,600 --> 01:04:00,400
but it's that's not really shut
up here.

995
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:05,200
So I okay, this is flashing
forward because if you don't

996
01:04:05,200 --> 01:04:10,400
know this yet about Blaine, but
he transfers to Dalton, he

997
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,400
doesn't stay all what I'm
assuming is for years, but maybe

998
01:04:13,400 --> 01:04:16,300
Dalton is like a, you don't know
if Dalton is K through 12, we

999
01:04:16,300 --> 01:04:18,400
don't know if it's 6 to 12 eggs,
I don't know what fucking kind

1000
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:20,900
of school dominoes, but he
transfers his Alton.

1001
01:04:20,900 --> 01:04:26,900
So he's not He is not on, he's
not a member of the Warblers for

1002
01:04:26,900 --> 01:04:30,500
as long as he could have been.
So my assumption by the junior

1003
01:04:30,500 --> 01:04:34,100
member is that he has not been a
member of the Warblers as long

1004
01:04:34,100 --> 01:04:37,800
as some of the other members.
Therefore, he is not a senior

1005
01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:42,700
member like so if he has been at
this school, he's a let's say

1006
01:04:42,700 --> 01:04:44,200
he's been at the school two
years.

1007
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:49,400
Now, other boys could have been
there three or four years and

1008
01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:53,200
have senior like more senior
status On the Warblers.

1009
01:04:53,900 --> 01:04:56,900
I didn't take it to be his
grade.

1010
01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:01,400
That's, that's totally fair.
I so I just, I started straight

1011
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:03,500
at face value.
I was like, Junior member.

1012
01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:07,500
He's a junior.
Okay, that's, that's, that's

1013
01:05:07,500 --> 01:05:09,100
fine.
I just honestly, I'm right.

1014
01:05:09,100 --> 01:05:11,200
I'm just saying that.
That's how I took it.

1015
01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:13,900
No, I am, right?
I'm always just kidding.

1016
01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:16,000
You're right.
You're right.

1017
01:05:16,100 --> 01:05:17,500
I've never been wrong in my
life.

1018
01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:21,800
Also his bleeding.
Ridiculous.

1019
01:05:21,800 --> 01:05:26,000
Like Like part in the air and
then pointing forward, he's just

1020
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:28,700
he's just cheesy, can we just
can we just?

1021
01:05:28,900 --> 01:05:33,300
Yes I don't feel enough people
appreciate and are aware of how

1022
01:05:33,300 --> 01:05:35,800
cheesy this boy is it supposed
to be what?

1023
01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:40,400
15, 16 years old.
He's a, she's fast, he's not 15

1024
01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:41,700
or 16, he's probably.
Okay.

1025
01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:44,200
At this point.
He is still a year older than

1026
01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:48,500
Kurt, so he was probably 17 and
I can stand by the shit.

1027
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:52,900
I'm going to hold on for one
more day.

1028
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:58,300
Blaine is a cheese ball and
that's part of his it's a it's

1029
01:05:58,300 --> 01:06:02,100
part of his Allure because he's
also like Dapper Dan, right?

1030
01:06:02,100 --> 01:06:07,500
Like and I, you know, I like
that lane either by bad writing

1031
01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:15,200
or choice, is both hyper
confident and severely, not

1032
01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:18,500
confident under-confident.
So, you know, the lead-up to

1033
01:06:18,500 --> 01:06:24,300
this severely Taking the lead up
to this is like gather warblers.

1034
01:06:24,300 --> 01:06:27,700
I need your help.
I'm going to sing a horn, dog

1035
01:06:27,700 --> 01:06:31,600
fest song to an older guy in
public, at his place of work,

1036
01:06:31,600 --> 01:06:33,400
without him, knowing about it,
it's going to be great and

1037
01:06:33,400 --> 01:06:35,200
awesome and no ways is going to
go wrong.

1038
01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:40,000
And then afterwards, he sitting
on a bench at a weird outdoor

1039
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:44,600
mall in Ohio.
Wink, wink, nudge nudge in his

1040
01:06:44,600 --> 01:06:48,200
little scarf and beanie asking
if that was too much, as if it

1041
01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,500
wasn't patently obvious like
yes.

1042
01:06:51,100 --> 01:06:56,700
That was left plus who was too
much because you are cheesy as

1043
01:06:56,700 --> 01:06:58,700
hell.
You're terrible about that.

1044
01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:01,200
Yeah.
And also like, okay, I know

1045
01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:03,200
they're all.
I know this was written by grown

1046
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:06,800
men and you can tell sometimes
because their whole conversation

1047
01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:11,400
afterwards where he's like love
is terrible and stupid which

1048
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:16,100
like I agree because that's me
but his it's such an overblown

1049
01:07:16,100 --> 01:07:23,200
conversation of When Kurt
gathers up, his courage with

1050
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:27,300
Mike and tells Blaine.
And honestly this does take a

1051
01:07:27,300 --> 01:07:30,400
lot of Courage because I can't
actually even tell people if I

1052
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:36,800
need them to step out of my way
that he thought the song and the

1053
01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:41,200
whole week was going to be about
him which takes the holes not to

1054
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:45,600
be gendered and sexist but like
I'm takes balls or ovarian

1055
01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:47,200
fortitude.
However you'd like to phrase it

1056
01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:52,600
in this month of pride.
And Blaine's responses, like,

1057
01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:55,300
I've never been anyone's
boyfriend and and I'm not very

1058
01:07:55,300 --> 01:07:59,000
good at love as if you're like a
seventeen-year-old idiot.

1059
01:07:59,300 --> 01:08:02,200
It's such an overblown
conversation, that really kind

1060
01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:05,500
of annoyed me because it should
have just been winnowed down to

1061
01:08:05,500 --> 01:08:08,600
like, I'm embarrassed, I fucked
up.

1062
01:08:08,900 --> 01:08:13,100
Can you give me like, five
minutes to be an embarrassed Sad

1063
01:08:13,100 --> 01:08:14,700
Panda.
And then like, maybe we could

1064
01:08:14,700 --> 01:08:16,800
try this again because that's
what all of feel.

1065
01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:19,100
Like, I also feel like
Overdrive.

1066
01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:22,200
Overdramatic - is so very
teenage.

1067
01:08:22,300 --> 01:08:27,500
It's like I'm terrible.
I'm never, I'm so bad at love

1068
01:08:27,500 --> 01:08:29,899
and romance.
Likewise if yes, darling.

1069
01:08:29,899 --> 01:08:32,800
You are, you'll never you'll
never something out of her

1070
01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:35,000
chance.
It's you 17 has been the fear

1071
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:37,700
left to right, which is a funny
funny.

1072
01:08:37,700 --> 01:08:41,700
Think about what romance means
to some people, like romance

1073
01:08:41,700 --> 01:08:44,899
means a lot of things to a lot
of people and the way people

1074
01:08:44,899 --> 01:08:48,500
showroom and somebody but I'd
remember that like that's a big.

1075
01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:52,800
Big Grand gesture which for some
people and some that that people

1076
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:55,200
is Kurt as we will see down the
line.

1077
01:08:55,700 --> 01:09:01,000
Singing a romantic well or
horndog song in a public place

1078
01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:05,200
to a person is a thing that Kurt
likes and Blaine already does

1079
01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:08,200
that pretty well so like he's
actually pretty good at that

1080
01:09:08,700 --> 01:09:10,399
guy.
He's very good at it in a cart

1081
01:09:10,399 --> 01:09:12,700
specific way.
Yeah so I don't know if that's

1082
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:17,899
something that they actually
planned ahead or not or they

1083
01:09:17,899 --> 01:09:20,899
just luck.
That, but that is one better.

1084
01:09:21,399 --> 01:09:23,000
One bit of something that works
out.

1085
01:09:23,300 --> 01:09:25,899
And again, blend likes to jump
things to feel at all.

1086
01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:33,500
He does, he does not speak up.
All right, see anything.

1087
01:09:33,500 --> 01:09:36,200
Everything else that happened in
this episode that living needs

1088
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:38,800
somebody to talk about.
I feel like we've, I feel like

1089
01:09:38,800 --> 01:09:41,700
we talked about a lot this
episode, so I'm afraid to make

1090
01:09:41,700 --> 01:09:44,500
it go to too much longer
programs people.

1091
01:09:47,500 --> 01:09:52,700
I don't remember we talked, At
the beginning, you want to want

1092
01:09:52,700 --> 01:09:55,400
to jump into the claimed X and
the Kelvin scale?

1093
01:09:56,300 --> 01:10:00,700
Yeah.
The Kevin scale is he got a half

1094
01:10:00,700 --> 01:10:03,600
a song?
Yeah yeah well he got song but

1095
01:10:03,600 --> 01:10:07,000
it was a duet so like I don't
know three or five because it

1096
01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:09,400
was a song.
So say nice things to Brittany

1097
01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:10,600
for once.
Yeah.

1098
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:14,700
Which unfortunately is new
sometimes for him?

1099
01:10:15,300 --> 01:10:17,900
Yeah I'm done.
I'm done with three for Kevin.

1100
01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:22,000
I'm Kevin the claimed X.
I want to give out of like a 6

1101
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:25,200
or a 7 because they have like a
good episode 16.

1102
01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:26,800
Yeah.
I'm down to give it a 7.

1103
01:10:27,100 --> 01:10:29,100
Okay.
For sure screen time.

1104
01:10:29,500 --> 01:10:30,700
Yeah for sure.
Thank God.

1105
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:34,800
And and I mean in movement of
relationship.

1106
01:10:34,900 --> 01:10:40,300
Yeah okay gotten bad so I think
that we all did well did

1107
01:10:40,300 --> 01:10:43,000
something important here?
You did well done.

1108
01:10:43,900 --> 01:10:46,900
Well I'm Kurt.
Yeah, I didn't.

1109
01:10:46,900 --> 01:10:48,400
I didn't ask what our favorite
songs were.

1110
01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:51,100
Or do you guys have favorite
songs?

1111
01:10:51,100 --> 01:10:52,800
I just assumed.
We were all going to stay when I

1112
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,000
get you alone, because
obviously, right.

1113
01:10:55,500 --> 01:10:59,500
Yeah, yeah, def def for show.
That's a thing people say,

1114
01:10:59,500 --> 01:11:01,700
right?
Oh, there was one thing I wanted

1115
01:11:01,700 --> 01:11:05,400
to point out because continuity
in Glee, only matters for

1116
01:11:05,900 --> 01:11:09,300
stupidest places.
Like drink is glutes.

1117
01:11:09,300 --> 01:11:11,700
Continuity makes, no sense,
there are things that it's,

1118
01:11:11,700 --> 01:11:16,100
like, why did you do this and
not like anything else.

1119
01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:19,300
But the song that's playing in
the Ground.

1120
01:11:19,500 --> 01:11:21,000
Oh, yes.
Later on the bench.

1121
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:23,200
After the Gap, it back is the
same music.

1122
01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:26,500
It does in the episode where it
was laying tells, Kurt Daddy

1123
01:11:26,500 --> 01:11:28,300
loves him.
And I was like that.

1124
01:11:28,300 --> 01:11:30,500
You're going to because you're
going to have this continuity.

1125
01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:35,000
That's continuous.
No other characterization.

1126
01:11:35,500 --> 01:11:38,900
Okay.
All right.

1127
01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,000
Good grief.
Good grief has continuity when

1128
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:45,400
it doesn't matter and I'm just
like, okay, I don't do that.

1129
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:48,400
But that's the thing we don't
have to ask.

1130
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:50,000
These questions.
All right.

1131
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:54,600
So any other favorite wines our
favorite moments that we want to

1132
01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:57,900
call out for this this episode?
You know, my coffee order.

1133
01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:01,000
Yeah, I would say my favorite
lines are all the classic

1134
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:05,400
playing when I feel similarly.
All right.

1135
01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:09,300
Well, was that them?
I think we should call this a

1136
01:12:09,300 --> 01:12:13,200
successful albeit potentially
long.
