and discuss their their tiring paper route from the previous night,
and Laura I says, last night, last night's a blur.
Rory says, what did we end up watching? Laura I
says was a baby monitor, sound of Fear or co
ed call girl? Rory says, no, I'd remember if we

(00:56):
a lifetime movie out of Tory Spelling. Of falling at
Bennie Hannah Tepanyaki, Grill of Death. Go ahead, Amy, I'll
with you, okay, So talk about our dear friend, Tory Spell.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
This is one of our very close friends, Tory Spelling.
Now she has been in. Obviously everyone knows her as
Donna Martin from nine oh two and oh and she
was just not dancing with the stars. Voted off way
too soon.

burned crew, Yes, it's it wasn't any and I don't
want to say Benny Hannah because it might have been.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
No had twenty fifteen, Tory Spelling tripped and fell backwards
on a hot hibachi girl at Bennie Hannah as she
was getting ready to leave. She sustained burns and reached
a settlement against the restaurant chain.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
So Baby Monitors Sound of Fear is a nineteen ninety
eight thriller about a woman who discovers her husband is
having an a with their nanny. My goodness, but it
was Tory and that who starred in Baby Monitor. O
Ed Callgirl is in nineteen ninety six drama starring Tory
Spelling as a college student turned escort.

Speaker 3 (02:12):
I wonder if Baby Monitor was her dad's.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Like, oh, yes, somebody looked up Baby Monitor. Sound of
fear and see what that was all about. So for
ten seasons, Tory played Donna Martin on nine O two
and Oh and Scott, You are part of iHeart and

does the same thing you're doing with Gilmourt Girls she's

(02:35):
doing with Jenny Garth for nine O two and Oh Okay.

Speaker 4 (02:39):
So Amy and Dan Palladino wrote the lyrics to the
stars Hollow musical. One of the songs is rapped like
and mentions Hamilton on Broadway, and another one references Jeff
Coons and Putin, and the cast sings. Waterloo by Abba
Hamilton is a sung and rapped through bio biographical musical
based on Alexander Hamilton, created by Lynn Manuel Miranda. Jeff

(03:03):
Coons is an artist recognized for his sculptures depicting everyday objects,
including balloon animals, produced in stainless steals. And Waterloo is
a song by Swedish pop group Abba and draws on
the historical eighteen fifteen Battle of Waterloo, using it as
a metaphor to describe the dynamics of a romantic relationship.

(03:24):
And did you know that Hamilton was inspired in part
by Lamas Robb and.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
I'm going to sing the song Waterloo, Yo.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
They tell you. Then Napoleon really really really screwed up.

Speaker 4 (03:37):
I saw Hamilton for the third time last week. I'm
a huge Hamilton fan.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
A little fun fact about Hamilton's I love musicals. You
can get totally slept through all of that.

Speaker 4 (03:50):
Oh wait, did you see it in person or did
you watch it on Disney.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
Plus in person at Pantatious Theater? Okay, fall asleep. It
was past my bedtime. It was eight pm.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
I saw it for the first time on Broadway because
I like saved up tickets and it's when Jordan Fisher
was on it. Oh, he's great, and it was a
really great cast. And then I mean, I've seen it
Panta just twice. But I love the Disney Plus one
because I listened to the soundtrack, so I think it
just I don't know, Try it on Disney Plus.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
All right.

Speaker 2 (04:25):

You've been dethroned, bow to the New King, and that's
by bet Dennis says. It moves, it breathes, Gypsy says
add An orchestra, and you can take it straight to Broadway, Bibbet,
School of Rock, bunch of schlock, this show gets an A.

(04:46):
So Simba is a fictional character in Disney's The Lion King.
What is so interesting is the movie Simba is coming soon?
But yeah, the live action Simba becomes the King of
the Pride Lands at the end of the film. So
like when they they go, is that Simbather holding up? Yes.

(05:06):
School of Rock is a two thousand and three comedy
film featuring Jack Black, who is a struggling rock guitarist
who ultimately makes a sub ultimately becomes a substitute teacher.
The movie was adapted into a musical, making its Broadway
debut in twenty fifteen. Can you name the Nickelodeon star?

Speaker 2 (05:29):
The Lion King is the highest grossing hand drawn animated
feature of all time, with a total box office of
over nine hundred and eighty six million.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
And Little Big League, my feature film debut, was released
on the very same weekend as The Lion King and
Forrest Gump. You know, Scott, Thanks a lot, guys Ny.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
Very few people have seen Little Big League correct except
for Easton he's your number one than I've seen it.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
It was good what happened east did the Lion King
tickets sell out? And you went? I had to see
a little big La the only option. I was there
opening weekend. Man, I wanted to see a little boy
own a baseball team, That's what I wanted.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
It pisses me out that there's not a Lions King
of Land at Disneyland. I was just at Disneyland and
I thought about this. I'm like, how is there not
Lion King World?

Speaker 4 (06:27):
Because they created Animal Kingdom Orlando.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Yeah, well, people in l A are getting screwed.

Speaker 4 (06:34):

And oh they're building in Paris.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
I didn't know that Easton, Okay, Well I needed in

Speaker 2 (06:47):
There's not even any kind of Lion King attraction right, there's.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
No nothing, zero, And it is the best, the best.
What do you say, franchise within Yeah?

Speaker 5 (06:57):
I enjoy franchise though for a long time. But that closed.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
Oh that's right?

Speaker 1 (07:03):
Yeah all right, who's doing the next one? Uh?

Speaker 5 (07:07):
I'll do it.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Yes.

Speaker 5 (07:10):
Babbett can't stop gushing about the musical. She says Teba
move over. There's a new jew in town. Tevio is
a fictional character from the short stories Teva the Dairyman
and the play Fiddler on the Roof. Did you know
that Fiddler lyricist Sheldon Harnick adapted the song Sunrise Sunset
for gay wedding ceremonies. It is even heard in Sex
and the City two when Harry and Stanford get married

(07:32):
by Liza Minelli.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
Hmmm, uh, Laurel. I notice as Babbett was writing a
lot during the musical babet I was writing my funny singers.
Ha's a diga e baw wi. You Mormon Nerds, audiences
are ringing a new doorbell. The song hasa diga bow
Wie is featuring the music of the Book of Mormon

(07:57):
and serves as a satirical parody to Hakuna Matata from
The Lion kig Did you know the phrase hassa di
baoi is a fictional expression creator for the Book of
Mormon's musical and it translates a few god wow in
the show's context, serving as a humorous and a reverent

(08:20):
take on dealing with life's hardships in a remote Ugandan village.
Amy Wow.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Great Taylor gives a little backstory behind the musical. The
opening scene is an excerpt from a play I wrote
in college that happened to be blessed by my mentor,
the Great Edward Albi. You may know him as the
author of a little something called Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf.
Edward Albi is a playwright known for his nineteen sixty
two play Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf, which examines the

(08:52):
complexities of the marriage of a middle aged couple. It
was turned into a film in nineteen sixty six, starring
Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. Elizabethended up winning an Oscar
for her role as Martha. Did you Know? The play
sparked controversy due to the frequent use of profanity by
the older couple in the script. The next one had

(09:13):
got Danielle written, Oliver it I feel like she knows these.
She knows hip hop?

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Oh yeah for sure. Oh god, she is hip hop
she is.

Speaker 3 (09:23):
And I can't even tell you how to say the
first one? Is it RZA or r is? Morlke questions
the rapping from the musical that is too similar to
Hamilton Taylor says, oh so, because Hamilton has rap numbers
no one else and the world can rap. You can
be so kind as to let Riza and Busta Rhymes

(09:44):
and know that they're not allowed to rap anymore. Riza
is a rapper and producer known for the hip hop
group Wu Tang Clan. He is also a filmmaker, actor,
and composer, scoring films like Kill Bill and directing The
Man with the Iron Fists. Busta Rhymes is also a rapper,
known for his rapid fire delivery, energetic performances, and hit

(10:06):
songs like oooh you Got All You Got all in
check and break your Neck? Did you Know? Bust rhymes
nineteen ninety seven hit single Dangerous earned him a place
in the Guinness World Records as the fastest rapper with
a delivery of one point two syllables per second. Eleven
point two Oh sorry, eleven point two syllables per second.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
I don't think I could ever do that.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Wow, weird thing he could have been on Gilmore Girls.
If you can talk about yeah, that.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Means you don't have to say like super calif.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Docious.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Danielle, you should do this one too, because you're.

Speaker 3 (10:51):
The Abba Girl, I like this one, okay. Lorelei continues
to critique the performance, and Lauraai says, look last thing. Abba.
Taylor says, ah, thanks for reminding me. We love all
we love the Abba songs, but my attorney warned me
that doing the nine Abba songs at the end might
entangle us in some messy litigation. Now I've got a
call in to Benny Anderson and Bjorn Oveis of Abba.

(11:13):
Lorla says, you have their numbers. Benny and Bjorn are
two of the members of the Swedish pop group Abba.
They are known for their global hits like Dancing Queen,
Mama Mia and Waterloo. Did you know? They reunited in
twenty twenty two for the first time in forty years
for the premiere of The Abba Voyage in London. Oh,
I wish I could have gone.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
To that.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Abba.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
I do not fantastic, They're fantasic.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
They're fantastic, and I weirdly had a CD of theirs
that I like played in my walkman.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
Oh, respect the track. I'm not going to track track
and of course I know I'm still try You don't
know what an eight track is.

Speaker 3 (11:57):
I don't know what an eight track is what's that?

Speaker 2 (11:59):
It's what was before cassettes. So before there were cassettes,
you have these things called eight tracks. And actually, when
I started my career in radio, we played all the
commercials off of eight tracks.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
Are the smaller discs.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
They're huge cassettes. Basically they're carts, thank you. Then they
were carts and I, oh you guys, I still have
PTSD from this. So we had to look at us
a list and it would give the commercials right, and
you had to load them into the thing to run
the commercials. And one time I was like, got the

(12:36):
chart mixed step and I ran every single commercial wrong.
So I had to do math. Basically had to do
math and figure out like, oh my god, okay is wrong.
So I had to pull all the right ones switch
the hour. It was so gnarly that I was like,
I literally.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
Have you ever seen Firefly Lane on Netflix?

Speaker 5 (12:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (12:57):
I feel like you like your experience reminds me of
that show. Like working in the newsroom and stuff.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
Oh yeah. When I started my career, I was in
San Francisco. But people, I will not name this person,
but this a friend of mine from college who is
now like a huge, huge, MSNBC Star started her career
in a small market in California and had to carry
her own camera, all her own gear, set up her

(13:27):
own camera to shoot her own news report, feed it back.
I mean, it was like crazy.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
She was like an influencer.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Seriously, yes, she was like an influencer. Luckily I never
had to do because I started in a big market,
so we had things, but like, oh my god, that's
a lot of work. It was still crazy what we
even had to do. There was no technology. I had
to fax Ryan Seacrest, like fax him his notes because
there was no email, there's no text, there's no cell phones.

(13:57):
I was like, get ready for a fax and he'd
to go stand by it and like wait for the paper.

Speaker 3 (14:02):
To come up.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
So crazy. I digress, but whatever, I'll do this one
Sophie offers to play a song for the musical. You know, Taylor,
I've written some songs. Sorry, I mean, first of all,
are you kidding me? It's Carol King. No, no, no, Sophie,
go ahead. I've never done anything with them, but you
can have them for free to sing at the end
if you like. And then she starts playing I feel
the Earth Move. I mean, what I Feel the Earth

(14:26):
Move is written and recorded by Carol King from her
second studio album, Tapestry. It became one of the biggest
mainstream pop hits of nineteen seventy one. Music journalist Harvey
Kupernick wrote that I Feel the Earth Move was probably
the most successful sexually aggressive song on the Tapestry album.
I didn't even know that it was sexual. Am I stupid?

Speaker 1 (14:46):
I think Harvey took it right to harm.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
I was today years old when I found out that
I Feel the Earth Move is dirty.

Speaker 5 (14:56):
I think it was about an earthquake.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
I don't know what I thought. I just never thought
of it. You know how like little you know how
little kids are like the bottom jeans, bootskin.

Speaker 3 (15:07):
To the wall, like literally used to jam out to
that song. And then I'm like, okay, this is gross.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
What I don't even know what that song's about.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
The next line, the next lie, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
We can't say, Text it to me, text it to me, okay,
all right.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
Violet catches Laura l I after the advisory committing meeting
and claims Laura like doesn't like her. Violet, have you
ever performed, been in a musical? Taken this risk?

Speaker 2 (15:39):
Laurale.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
No.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
Well, once I was Lucien, You're a good man, Charlie Brown,
I was so awful. H You're a good man. Charlie
Brown is a musical comedy based on the characters from
Charles M. Schultz's Peanuts comic strip. Did you know in
the comic strip, Charlie Brown's parents are never shown?

Speaker 2 (15:58):
M Yeah, I did know that, kid, Like the rest
of us, I did know that. A lot of people
say I remind them of pig Pin. I'm just saying
I take it as a comment.

Speaker 5 (16:10):
Do you have like a cloud of dirt following you?

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Like I'm kind of always just disheved, Like I cannot
get my stuff together, do you know what I mean?
Like I'm always fifteen minutes late. There's always like kind
of someone following behind to sweep up sort of the mess.
Like I'm not dirty, but it's just like, oh God,
where's that paper? Where's that thing? Can I have a microphone?
Can somebody turn my lights? Like I just can never
get it together. No one listening cares. Sorry, nobody listen
listening cares. But we do have another Mattlock reference coming up?

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Shall I tell you? Yes?

Speaker 2 (16:38):
Rory attempts to persuade Emily to leave her house. You
are far too young to be sitting in front of
a TV tray watching Mattlock. Mattlock is a drama TV
series that aired from nineteen eighty six to nineteen ninety five,
starring the late great Andy Griffith as Ben Mattlock, a
savvy defense attorney who solves complex cases. Did you know?
After six seasons, nbc ca anseled the show as the

(17:00):
series skewed more towards older adults. Well, guess what. Kathy
Bates is back as matt Lock. It just premiered on
CBS at the end of September and it co stars
Jason Ritter and I did watch the pilot. It's basically
like she just happens to have the name Mattlock, and
then she says, Scott's falling asleep, like the uh oh

(17:25):
do you need should he ice it or he? Because
my arm is in so much pain, I'm going to
I'm going to ice my arm as soon as we've.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
Finis I did something in the gym and it kinked up.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
Well, my arm literally is in pain.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
All right, Susanne take this one.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
This is a little more Andy Griffith for you.

Speaker 5 (17:43):
Oh, I love Andy Griffith. I just watched Strap the
other night.

Speaker 2 (17:47):
You watch what I watched Andy Griffith the other night,
the old show like Ron Howard Opie. Yeah, yep, I would.

Speaker 5 (17:55):
I was really finishing up some work and just had
it all in the background.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
Oh my god, wait, I am sorry. I have to
dig into this a little bit. Did you tell like
your Roku to put it on? Or was it on?
It was?

Speaker 5 (18:07):
It's on like me TV one of those cable stations
that plays old shows.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
Black and white. Yeah, with Don Knotts. Yes, yeah, I can't.
I that's a no for me. But you continue and
I love that you love it? I love it you.

Speaker 5 (18:24):
I do love it. Yeah, they used to. They filmed
that at Dizzey Loo back in the day.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
But anyways, interesting soul, Suzanne. Are we the same age?

Speaker 5 (18:32):
We're close? I'm I think I'm a little older than you.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
You grasp onto the sixties or something where I or
maybe the fifties sixties TV where I was like the
seventies for me, are it? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (18:42):
I think I was born in the wrong decade because
I think like the fifties. I love the seventies too,
But like.

I could watch a Chips marathon, a Wilder Woman marathon,
just all day long, Charlie's Angels. Oh love it? Yeah,
oh love it?

Speaker 3 (18:56):
Go ahead? All right?

Speaker 5 (18:57):
So Rory updates Lurlai over the phone about her is
it with Emily? And Rory says, we had a long
debate about Andy Griffith alive or dead? Then we finished
off the finger sandwiches. Andy Griffith was an acclaimed actor
and comedian, best known for his roles in The Andy
Griffith Show and Matt Locke and did you know? Unfortunately,
to answer the question, Andy Griffith died due to a

(19:18):
heart attack in twenty twelve.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
Super yup, he was older, right, like he had a
good long life.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
Yeah, oh yeah, right, Tara, take this one all right.

Speaker 4 (19:29):
Rory turns a photo of David Carr around. When she
offers Jess a drink, Rory says, I don't want him
to see me like this. David Carr was a columnist
and newspaper editor for the New York Times, and did

York Times named a fellowship after him.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
Might here's a Jess one Danielle, I think you probably

eight and nineteen eighty for winning both Outstanding Lead and
Supporting Actor for the same character. I love that.

Speaker 1 (20:24):
Oh, they just entered him in different categories those different years.
All right, Danielle, keep going, It's more Jess.

Speaker 3 (20:30):
Rory asked Jess how he has been, and Rory says, so,
how are you. Luke tells me that the book press
is doing is going great. Jess says it's doing okay.
Rory says, so you've got Dave Eggers shaking in his boots.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
Just passed away. Yes, yes, Laura, I doesn't want Roy
to write a book about them, and confesses to leaving
Rory in a bucket at a hardware story. Laura, I
write a book about that. A woman who leaves a
baby in a bucket and her own mother takes her
to court. It's perfect lifetime movie. Maggie Smith can play
the mother. Maggie Smith was a British actress with an

(25:23):
extensive career on stage and screen. She won two Oscars.
Her most recent roles are fan favorites Violet Crawley, the
Countess of Grantham on Downtown Abbey and Professor McGonagall on
the Harry Potter film series. She recently unfortunately passed away
September twenty seventh. May she rest in peace. Did you know?

Honor and Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire,

Great a great, great loss. Yeah, tremendous.

Speaker 3 (26:04):
Character is so.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
Total legend anyway, Suzanne, go ahead.

Speaker 5 (26:12):
Lorelei shows up at the diner looking for coffee, but
Luke doesn't want her to make a fresh pot. Laura
I says, is the world suddenly out of coffee? Luke
says no is. Laura I says, is Columbia pissed over
Narcos and holding out? Luke says fine. Narcos is a
two hundred and fifty twenty fifteen TV series depicting the
rise and fall of drug cartels in Colombia, probablyrimarily focusing

(26:34):
on the life of notorious drug load drug lord Pablo
Escobar and the efforts of law enforcement to bring him
to justice. Did you know while filming Narcos, the producers
were lucky enough to find that exact find the exact
rooftop where Escobar was shot still intact, so they went
ahead and filmed his death there.

Speaker 1 (26:54):
As one does, as one does, he wants to do
the look Laurla Danielle.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
Yeah, I got this one. In the midst of an argument,
Luke leaves the diner, Lauralai says, where are you going?
Luke says, where I got muffins in the oven at
the end for breakfast tomorrow. Because Sandra Lee called and
canceled because she talked to Aina Garden, who said, don't
go to the Dragonfly in because it's awful. Sander's had
a tough couple of years, but she doesn't need to

(27:23):
be embarrassed by you. Oh my goodness, this is such
a good reference. My heart can like hardly handle it.
So Sandra Lee is a chef in television personality, best
known for her show sent My Homemade Cooking. Luke is
referring to Sandra's a few years because she was diagnosed
with breast cancer in twenty fifteen. An Aina Garden, who

a chef in television personality, known for her popular cooking
show Barefoot Contessa. She just released a memoir, be Ready
When the Luck Happens. Did you know Ina Garden worked
in the White House and she also has her pilots.

I didn't know. I know that Jennifer Garner loves her,
but I did not know that I knew.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
Wow, Laura I finds Luke in the kitchen and tells
him she's going away for a while. Laurrele, I, I'm
going to do Wild, Luke? What, Laurel I? Wild? Luke?
I don't you mean the movie, Laurel I? The book
Wild from Lost to Found the Pacific Crest Trails and
memoir by Cheryl Strayed stray Ed stray It that chronicles

her transformative journey hiking over one thousand miles on the
Pacific Crest Trail following a period of personal turmoil and loss.
Reese Witherspoon starred in the film adaptation of Wild, which
was released December twenty fourteen. Reese was nominated for an
Oscar for her lead role as Cheryl, and Laura Dern
was nominated for supporting role as Bobby. Did you know

(28:55):
director Jean marc Vali would not let Reese Witherspoon read
the instruction manual to the tent nor the stove. All
