Honestly, every year we joke that the year has been a train-wreck, but this one? Fully derailed and off a cliff and definitely not demure or mindful.
So what happened this year? Meghan Markle’s jam went nowhere, JLo’s This Is Me… Now saga imploded, Barnaby Joyce fell off a planter box, and JoJo Siwa crowned herself CEO of gay pop.
From Trump's assassination attempt to the failed Wonka Experience and everything in between - get ready to reminisce so you can move on and have a Brat Summer.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
You're listening to Amma Mia podcast. MoMA Mayor acknowledges the
traditional owners of land and waters that this podcast is
recorded on Hello and welcome to Canceled, The Lazy Girl's
(00:31):
Guide to bizarre celebrity cancelations. I'm Claire Stephens and I'm
joined by is what You were Meant to do? Jesse
Stephens And on today's episode, we are Canceling. Twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Computer security company CrowdStrike has been linked to the outage
that is affecting banks, airports, supermarkets and businesses across Australia
and the world.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
I'm a singer, Charlie XCX tweeted last night Kamala is brats.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
It's shall.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Every year we joke about how it's been a bit fire,
but this one really actually has. There are actual global
atrocities occurring every day, and we lived in a deeply
cooked reality where there is relentless suffering over there and
then over here we're analyzing wicked or getting mad at
a woman on TikTok or elon Musks tweeting you are
(01:36):
the media now and it's like, ah, this is broken.
It's a strange time. But here on Canceled, we are
just two lazy girls who want to take the piss,
and that is what we shall do about the year
of our Lord, twenty twenty four. Jesse, How should I
introduce twenty twenty four? It's a year. It's the current year,
(01:56):
three hundred and sixty something days. Yeah, was this Alepia?
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
No, anyway, it's twenty twenty four. If you're listening in
twenty twenty five, it was last year. That's yeah. I
was gonna say, if you're listening in twenty twenty three,
it's next year. I thought i'd enter the vibe into
the courtroom about this year, because we can get a
bit confused, like, oh, but it's today, it's this month. Well, no,
let's get a more holistic view of this year. So
(02:21):
to do that, I thought I would bring in the
words of the year according to various dictionaries. I thought
you were going to say it started on sort of
twelve oh one jan one, and then like the medal
was around kind of beginning of July. Yeah, and now
we're here, Yeah, no, I'm going to talk about some language. Okay, Now,
I reckon My dream job would be the person who
(02:42):
works at Dictionaries and Picks. Word of the Year I say,
my I was from a friend recently. I said, that
person's a loser. That person is a loser because they're
just like, why don't we do what was the one?
There was a Beyonce one where they were like, the
word is she did a dance or something, and they
just they love it. It's like skibbity toilet. Oh, it's
(03:05):
just a old people being like, Oh, they're saying cozy
lives a lot and it's like four years ago. Maybe
they just ruin it. It's like your job is to
ruin the fun. Well, and you just knew that someone
had a little yeah they're in the tea room and
a little biki and actually went I've got it. I've
got it. It's bootylicious. If you had that. Oh no, no, Sarah,
(03:28):
I haven't heard of that. Well it's Beyonce. It's a
bit naughty. And we're putting it in the dictionary to
stay current and hip with the kids, honey, because buying
dictionaries you are redundant. We need to accept it. Okay. Well,
the Colins Dictionary Word of the Year was bratt. I
love how they all compete for like dictionary brand yeah,
(03:49):
brat yeah Ann. It's the title of an album by
Charlie XC Yeah and no one, I don't care what
you say. No one knows what it means. It's characterized
by a confident, independent and hedonistic attitude, but it's also
an aesthetic and a way of life. Yeah, meaning less cool.
This is one we discussed on the weekend. Macquarie Dictionary
has got of the Year is en shitification. Yeah, it's
(04:09):
my favorite. Do you to describe the moment we have
everything's become shit, everything around us has become shit. We
went to a place that we used to go, like
when we were at Uni, and it was about twelve
years ago. I'd say we would go to this place
and we'd get a sandwich. And we went there and
we went, Oh, for all time's sake, let's go and
get a sandwich. Bread with shit, chicken with shit, let
us with shit. They just spat on it, kicked it
(04:30):
at us. Paper was shit and I went sevent shitter
than it was. And I'm not imagining it, and I
reckon double the price and double the price. Demure is
the other word, very demure, very mindful. So this started
with the TikToker who was like, you, see.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
How you do my makeup for work? Very demure, very mindful.
I don't come to work with a green cut crease.
Don't look like a clown. When I go to work,
I don't do too much. I'm very mindful while I'm
at work. See how I look very presentable. The way
I came to the interview is the way I go
to the job.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Brain rot exactly what we do that captures concerns about
the type of content work. And yeah, everyone has just
accepted that their brains are gradually becoming eroding. It's like
we can feel the erosion in real time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Honorable mentions go to yapping having a yap. No one
(05:23):
made that up. Yapping is an old old and skibbity.
This isn't. This is just a genser in the Alphas
who think they're so cool just make up shit and
they get everyone gets their panties and a not. Everyone gets, Oh,
they're all saying skibbity toilet. Now they're not. They're not.
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, and we don't need
(05:44):
to know what it means. Yeah, they're not buying drugs
with it, Ah, that we know of. So that's the vibe.
But Jesse, let's get into our recap slash cancelation of
twenty twenty four. We entered the year weirdly into tradwives. Okay,
so this is the year where the traditional wife made
a comeback, not the nineteen fifties. I drug myself and
(06:05):
I'm in a gendered prison. Kind no, no, no, that we
know of. I saw an ad the other day for
antidepressants from the nineteen fifties, and it had a picture
of a housewife in a ninety looking a little unhinged,
to be honest, and it said, mornadine now she can
cook breakfast again. Mournerdine was an antidepressant. Yeah, so this
was like a nineteen fifties ad of like drug your wife,
(06:26):
she'll cook your egg. But weirdly, I see those ads
and I'm like, we still got that drug? Can I
asks could just go to your GP. Are we doing mornerdine?
Because making breakfast makes me need an antidepressant? Please? Anyway,
everyone forgot that nineteen fifties housewives were not stoked. That's
why we had the feminist revolution, which we've forgotten about
(06:46):
and that was about equal pay and birth control and
credit cards. But then everyone's been on TikTok too much
brain rot. They forgot feminism and they're like, why did
we leave the kitchen? And they're like, guys, hear me out.
Nineteen fifties one word Mournerdine Ballerina farm has been one
of the biggest tad wives, even though she doesn't identify
as one. And then there's Nara Smith. Have you looked
(07:08):
at Narasmith's content? Yes, she'll be like my children wanted
their glass of milk, so I bought a cat start
of milking. I didn't want milks scratch and I'm like, Nara, honey,
you gotta get some hobbies. Okay. So Nara whispers while
she makes like a rice dish in a ball gown.
(07:29):
That's her aesthetic. I saw recently she did a what
my toddler eats and a David and I went, we
all need ideas, we need some creativity. So I thought
I ended to share with you. And it's like, how
much yogurt is? Yeah, that's the only question. Ever, It's
like it's three pouches too many for breakfasts. Okay, this
is what she did apple copow. I have question marks
(07:50):
because I'm like, is that a cereal? It's not. It's
not like cocoa pops copow. That enough pumpkin pancakes. That's
silly pumpkin for breakfast. Not appropriate. Toddler wouldn't like that tea.
I don't know if she was like my Toddler's love
tea and I was like, is this a joke? Can
you imagine my baby drinking tea? Being like, I'll have
(08:13):
a t she'd go, what too hot? Drop a glass.
Then she did like a mid morning cheese board, and
she did cheese, salami, pistachios, and it's always a fruit.
I've never heard of it. It's never like a banana
and apple. It was like a platter. And I don't
know where I went wrong, But if I put a
platter out for our little girls, they would pick up
(08:34):
the most highly pigmented fruit and they would smash on
the couch. They would go to the rug, they would
push it in and then they'd throw said platter at
each other. Yes, exactly right, and none would go in
the mouth. I don't know if they're meant to sit
around the grazing board and have a chat with a
glass of wine. Go h, We'll just crack open this pistachio.
Is that what we're doing? Because the fine motive skills
(08:55):
of your baby ain up to scratch. Lunch lentil soup
with kale. Alright, if someone offered me that flunch, I'd
cry for dinner. Something quick and simple. Coconut milk, poached cod.
I don't understand coconut milk. That means she bought a
coconut and milked it. Yeah, milked it with its teeth.
(09:17):
When I make something quick, it is a can of
baked beans. Yes, room temperature. Here's a spoon. Actually, I
don't give her a spoone fits it anyway. The philosophical
question of the year is why we became addicted to
trad wives And the answer is because women are very
tired and they think it would be lovely to live
on a funp baker cake and let's be honest, have
(09:38):
an eleven am nap because that's what we imagine naras doing. Yeah,
that's what I think about the trad wife life. But
you know, things about for women. When we're fantasizing about oppression,
things are not good. The nineteen fifties fantasy also came
with shit husbands. You couldn't leave because he had no money.
Things were not ideal for women. No, but the trad
wife trend does continue. Okay. Well, the other thing that
(10:02):
happened early in the year if February was Barnaby Joyce
got drunk in a plan to box Yep.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
I made a big mistake. There's no excuse for it.
There's a reason, you know, there's a very eventful walk home,
wasn't it. I'm on a prescription drug and they say
certain things may happen to you if you drink, and
they were absolutely one hundred percent right they did.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
And I remember my first traction. I saw him, I
saw him laying their legs in the air. Ahh, And
I went, who among us, raise your hand? Who among
us has never fallen fallen into a plant like a
bug on its back? Who can't get up drunk a plant?
(10:47):
I remember once, And I'm not saying this is a
good thing, because I was overseas and I wasn't tracking
my alcohol consumption. Because when I had to carry me
home and I was put in a plant box at
one stage because it was steady, and he put me
down because he had to readjust me, when I'll put
you in the plant box, because at least then I
know where you are. Well, that's your well, it's a
(11:11):
quiet Canbra street. Barnaby Choice had been chatting on his phone.
He was simply sitting in the planter box when he
fell off, and he did say to media, if I
had known someone was there with a camera, I would
have got up quicker. In the video, he's swearing, he's
saying all sorts of things. His behavior was taken seriously
in some corners with headlines like Barnaby Joyce's drunken behavior
(11:34):
raises questions about political culture and double standards in Canberra,
because I guess you're a public fit like you're nah
no again glasshouses. It is, yes, it is an Australian
right to have our moments, I think he said, and
this is a classic. I've pulled it. You've pulled it.
(11:55):
He was on a medication. Yeah yeah, and then you
lose track. That's the excuse that you used to go, Oh,
I've just it interacted with it. It interacted. You know
about interactions. Doctors are like what the chaser ran astirical story.
Former Deputy PM Barnaby. Joyce denies being too drunk while
lying on a Braden's sidewalk. This is the most sober
(12:17):
I have ever been while Barnaby. At the end of February,
the Willy Wonka Experience Wonker Wonker held in Glasgow. It
was advertised as the place where chocolate dreams become reality.
It boasted an enchanted garden, a twilight tunnel and an
(12:38):
imagination lab. If you're thinking I don't think any of
those featured in Wonka, you'd be right. Tickets cost thirty
five pounds, which is nearly seventy dollars, and visitors were
promised surprises at every turn, and surprises they got. Oh lovely.
Families who turned up were subject to and this is
a quote, little more than an abandoned empty warehouse. Apparently
(12:58):
it looked like a meth lab, and having cited the image,
is very a meth lab. There were a handful of
actors employed and it was their first You won't believe it,
but it was their first acting job ever. And they
were given the script at six pm on Friday and
the event started on the Saturday. They turned up to
address rehearsal on that Friday. They saw the space and
were like Jesus, And then the organizers were like, yes,
(13:19):
it's being fitted out overnight, but when they turned up
in the morning it had not been fitted Okay, it's
very fire festival. Yes, now I need to talk about
the script because you might be sitting there going what script? Well,
why does the willy walker experience the script? A woman
named Kirsty was hired to play one of the MP lumpers,
but in the script they were referred to as wonky doodles. Okay,
(13:43):
is that because MPs was trademarked. I think trademark Claire.
I think this is Kirsty as a wonky doodle. Please
describe the image. She's simply a depressed It's very a
team OU outfit. Jesse. Why is she in a meth lab?
(14:03):
I don't know. The script was strange in that it
included stage directions for the audience and Paul Connell, who
played Willie McDuck there were three Willy mick Ducks described
it as fifteen pages of AI generated gibberish, of me
(14:23):
just monologuing these mad things. Yes, so this is if
chat GPT organized your event, the wonker experience is what
you get. A sixteen year old named Felicia played a
character called the Unknown, and she wore a silver mask
and a black coat. Apparently she lives in the walls
(14:44):
and no one knows what her relationship is to Wonka.
In the script, the Unknown was to be defeated by
a vacuum cleaner, but no prop was provided, so the
actors had to improvise. Apparently the Unknown really frightened the children. Jersey, Okay, firstly,
(15:05):
for my daughter's first birthday, we're having a very very
hungry caterpillar theme birthday. And I regret every because it
should have been a Wonk experience. Would have gone as
a Wonky doodle. Yeah, and Matelda would have been the Unknown.
And I think that, like this was all a laugh
and it became, you know, a laughing stock. It was mocked. Yeah,
(15:26):
I reckon mark my words twenty twenty five. Every country
will want their own Wonk or experience because this is
simply it's iconic. They were like, if this was a
few weeks later before it got shut down, which we'll do,
would have bought tickets. Yeah. Absolutely. Employees were told to
give each child two jelly beans and a quarter of
(15:48):
a cup of lemonade, but then they run out after
After the first few performances, the actors were told to
abandon the script and just tell the guests to walk
through the venue, which took them maybe two minutes. The
unknown character was now scaring children for no reason, given
(16:11):
that she had no discernible role. By the end this,
Paul Connell said, the threat of violence was high. Temper's
rose and the police were called to the One Grew
Experience Highlight Highlight of twenty twenty four. Okay, moving on too.
Also in February, Taylor and Travis at the Super Bowl.
(16:34):
Taylor Swift went to support her boyfriend Travis Kelsey, who
was playing in the Super Bowl for the Chiefs. I
think so. I think he was playing for me. It
was on the office for the first time because we
were just wanting to spot Taylor. Yeah. And there were
two moments from this that I haven't stopped thinking about, right,
I mean, Super Bowl, Yay performances. Whatever was it? That
(16:54):
first touchdown? Absolutely not. Taylor Swift was in the crowd
like chugging beer. Blake Lively was next to her, Yeah,
looking very out of her LA. Yeah, she was just
very done for an NFL game. The two things I
can't stop thinking about one. After Travis Kelsey's team won,
Taylor embraced him, and there's a video where you can
(17:16):
hear what they're saying to each other. He says, how
are you here right now? And she says jet lag
is a choice. I think about that every day. Every day.
I think, is jet lag a choice? Jet lag is
not a I don't think it's a choice because I
think generally with tiredness. I love Taylor Swift, but I'm
about to say something we jet lag might be a choice,
(17:38):
been god, private jet and maybe a double better. Yeah, okay, true,
very very true. But I also think something about her
work ethic. Maybe jet lag is a choice. Maybe we're
all lazy. Maybe it is a choice. It's like when
someone said that we all have the same ales and
the day as Beyonce and I'm not really defensive, and
I was like, no, we don't. I think we do.
I think we do. Jeff the other bit. I can't
(18:00):
stop thinking about Travis chanting Beaver Las Vegas. Oh that
was so well the trophy. I went no, no, no, no,
(18:20):
na run. I think we've all had that experience of
watching someone we thought we liked change shout get with
the boy. Yeah, and we do something I don't like it,
and then still people are like, oh, Travis and Taylor.
It's like, well, are you not thinking about that? Because
(18:43):
I am because I go to put my head down
at night and I can't hear it. Hello, lazy girls,

(19:54):
Jesse j Lo releases This Is Me Now. Look, there's
a lot to say about benefit, but you might say
that the release of This Is Me Now was the
beginning of the end, or was the beginning of the
end right before they broke up the first time? Was
that the medal? Or was it? Yeah? Yeah, there's an
(20:15):
album called This Is Me Now, and there's also a
musical film called This Is Me Now A Love Story,
And there's also a documentary about the making of the
album and the film titled The Greatest Love Story Never Told.
It's all self funded by Lopez and it went over
its twenty million dollar budget. I've watched all of them,
(20:36):
all the iterations. Wow. Yeah, I believe in my soul
that the love story has been told, has through various mediums.
Three documentary, through Philma, Philimma, through Instagram, yep, through I
think there might have been a plantation wedding in there. Yeah,
we know. In the documentary about the film about the album,
(20:59):
Ye we hear about love letters, Affleck wrote to Lopez.
I seen them and kept during his marriage Jennifer Ghannah
and yeah, they nicknamed him pan Affleck. I don't need
to know that. No, I don't need to know no.
By May, there were reports that ben Affleck hadn't been
photographed with his wife Lopez in forty seven and days,
and by that point we were like, it's done. Also
(21:21):
in May, Lopez interacted with a social media post about
unhealthy relationship. I remember that. And then they attended Affleck's
daughter's graduation together and we were like things are fine.
Things were not fine because in June Affleck moved his
belongings out of their shared home and in July j
(21:43):
Lo turned fifty five and had that Bridgitt themed party
and he didn't come yet. Looked like it slapped. It
looked really really. I always think it is a red
flag if your partner buys a mansion in a different suburban,
moves into it and then you have marked my words,
it's done. And then yeah for birthday party and don't
invite him, Yeah, yeah, done, and you haven't been photographed together.
(22:04):
In August, the official news broke that Jaylo was filing
for divorce, and I believe it was the content that
was the issue. And also j Lo was no longer
going on tour for This Is Me Now. Apparently that
didn't sell enough tickets. I hate that room makes me
feel seen. I know, I know. Oh, I just tell myself.
She wanted the summer off. Yeah, to grieve. Yeah. Twenty
(22:25):
twenty four was the year that Bennifer really came to die.
I Team Jen interesting. The Cape Middleton controversy, it is
I cannot believe that was this year. It is so
easy to forget how this started because it is simply
so shameful. But at the beginning of this year, the
vibe was where is Kate? They've killed Kate. There's a conspiracy.
(22:48):
We were not, we were not in a good place
for the culture. We're not. They've replaced her with an imposter.
Do you remember seeing all the photos That's not Kate,
that's not Kate. That was insane. Yeah. Yeah. There's a
literal website called where is Katemiddleton dot com? Okay. The
website says, we want to take a moment with you
to share the purpose behind this creation. I think us
(23:10):
to find out where Kate Middleton is dot com. As
you may have noticed, we established this space because we
recognized a need for a central hub where public thoughts,
articles and theories surrounding the disappearance of Princess of Wales
Kate Middleton could live. Our intention was born out of
concern for the well being and whereabouts of the princess.
(23:31):
That's why, that is why we are. We find that
hunting is a good way to get her back. We
genuinely hope for her safety, wellbeing and swift recovery from
any medical condition. The question who are you? Who are you,
detective Artie, oh, detective Yeah? Sounds legitimate. However, we also
acknowledge that things haven't been the same since December twenty five,
(23:54):
twenty twenty three. We cannot ignore the sense that something
is a miss. While our hopes remained steadfast for the
Princess's health and happiness, we recognize the need for open
dialogue and discussion surrounding recent events until she returned. So
what it does is it updates every time there's anything
to do with Kate Middleton. They gave up actually because
(24:15):
it's like last public appearance December twenty five, twenty twenty three,
last video appearance March twenty twenty four, and then recent
public appearance was tripping the color in June twenty twenty four,
so they're like, we acknowledge, we have now seen her.
This website still exists and it's very but they're not
keeping up to date. No, she has done that video
since when she did that folk album. Yeah, she was
(24:38):
in her kind of forest gallivanting around here. Yeah. Yeah,
Well I would imagine that this website really went nuts
during the photoshop photo conspiracy. Yeap, So when was that March?
That was in March? So a photo of Kate Middleton
and her kids is released by Kensington Palace for UK
Mother's Day and then this was wild. All the photo
(25:02):
agencies are like, we're retracting this because it's clearly edited.
AAP said it appeared the source of manipulated the image
in a way that did not meet the Associated Press
photo stand because people noticed it. And this is something
we often say on this podcast, because it's an edit
that you get in book editing, which is NQR. Yeah,
she's not quite right. Yeah, and that's how I would
(25:24):
define I mean to a greater extent than wanker experience.
But the thing about AI is that it's just n QR. IT'SR.
You looked at that photo hand was in the wrong place,
someone's jumper and did Charlotte's legs. The edges were unnaturally soft,
just wasn't real and you just go internet slouths too
much time and then AAP's like, look, thanks for the criticism.
(25:44):
This photo simply ain't it. Ain't it. So it was
only two weeks later that Kate then publicly shared her
cancer diagnosis. I didn't realize it was that quick. So
clearly she's like, everyone's really mad. Got to come, Clay,
I've got it. I've got to tell them. So she
announced that they had found cancer when they did this
surgery in January. Then in June she did the forest photo.
(26:07):
The forest photo, this one, oh yes, yes, yes, yes,
under the tree. Yeah, I remember there was common tree.
At the time, being like, well she looks, well, what
if not everyone looks that well after cancer and it's
like she can look out she looks. Then she made
the public appearance and trooping the color. And then in
November for Remembrance Day, she made a public appearance and
(26:29):
a British TV host tweeted genuine question, why has Kate
aged so much? Isn't she only forty two? Is she
a smoker. It's the only explanation the woman has, even
if the woman didn't have cancer. I'm sorry. Did you
hear about the Wonkricks? Did you? I'm sorry? Did you
hear the benefit time? Did you hear about Barnaby Joyce
(26:50):
and the planet works? It? Spin is a spenty year
for all of us. Yeah, I look one hundred years
older than I did in January. And Kate's actually been
through some shit. Kate has been through some shit. In March,
Megan Markle launched her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Let's throw
in all Shit Montecito. The month before, she filed a
(27:13):
trademark application like for that brand and to sell things
like tablewhere cookbooks, textiles, jellies, and marmalades. Were very excited.
It seemed lovely, a bit goofy, a bit Martha Stewart.
But we've said it once and we will say it
again that Meghan loves announcing a project. I have to say.
She works slow. She works she works slow. I get it,
(27:37):
same as me. Very lazy girl. She's a lazy girl.
She's got the momentum. She's gone yeah blah la la
lah energy, and she's not moved fast and break things. No,
she's moved slow and don't make anything yeah yeah, and
absolutely no hate because I think the announcement of anything
is the best bit. How many people go, I'm going
to do a podcast three months in there, like, oh
(27:58):
my god, you wanted something every week? That's I'm done.
And I was worried pretty quick that she'd lose momentum.
But we're wrong because the next month, Meghan unveiled her
Jam flavor Strawberry Oh. A few influencers posted about the jam,
including Chris Jenner, Mindy Kaling, and Chrissy Teakin. Details like
(28:20):
the cost or where we could buy it were not released.
It's not good marketing, it's not yet good awareness building.
What you want when Chris Jenna shares your product at
you want to link. You want an affiliate link that
you can see that you can buy the theme. Because
what we've got is a lot of hype and not
a lot of jam. Not a lot of jam. Too
(28:40):
much hype, not enough jen We are now in December,
so we are eight months on nine months since the
brand has launched, and there's still no jam. Okay, no details,
no price, no link. I really need to buy that.
Jane the Instagram account is still just the logo. I went,
let's just go the website. Maybe it's been updated today
(29:01):
and I've missed it. So I just went to the website.
It takes me to American Riviera Orchard Montesito, and the
only thing I can do is sign up to the
wait list and they gonna be real. Meghan, my interest
in gem is a waning to say. Also, Babe, while
you're perfecting your jam, working out your jam, procrastinating your jam,
(29:21):
Ballerida Farm is selling that jam. She is, And say
what you like about the wanker experience they played it
to deliver it. You know, was it imperfect? Don't let
done be the enemy of perfection something, don't don't let
perfection be the enemy of good. Don't just do it,
(29:45):
just do the jam. Apparently, what's happened is there is
an issue with the trademark in that American Reviera is
a place, and you can't trademarket place. And there's an
issue with the fone. That's just something you could have
worked out before you announced it. Anyway, speaking of well,
you know who's the anti think twice wall twice cut once. Yeah,
you know whose anti measure twice cute. See all Megan
(30:07):
does is measure. Who's a measure? All this person does
his cut, and that is Jojo c Wa, who became
the self proclaimed CEO of gay pop. This has been
the year of Jojo see wat as solely fueled by
Jojo herself. On January one, she's like, this will be
the year of Jojo c Wat. No one got on board,
but she could committed to her for her, She's like
(30:30):
been a great year. She released her debut single as
a grown up artist, Karma. Not only is the song appalling,
the film clip is really weird, but it's not got
on the ankles. It's very stumpy, stopping the dance. Promoting
the single, she said in an interview with Billboard, I
want to start a new genre of music. It's called
(30:50):
gay pop, and that upset people a lot because they're like,
gay pop's been around a very long time. Then she
went on call her daddy. She wore a ridiculous hat
and she just hasn't left. She's just constantly I'm launching,
I'm launching, I'm on TikTok o. She's in oz. Yeah,
she's just been in Australia. I'm visited swear all her
fans are. I was somewhere drinks with a few friends
(31:12):
the other night and they were going to an event afterwards,
and they were like, legend has it JoJo's gonna be there,
no doubt. And it was a local event, I have
no doubt. And then they were like, no, as if
Jojo would go there, and I was like, that's the
sort of thing where we're meeting friends this hour. Yeah,
Jojo cobayla. If she's still in the country, she's there.
If Jojo was there, I'd be like, name a place
Jojo isn't. Well. Do you also remember on TikTok she
(31:38):
thanked Beyonce at the award show. Yeah, and then everyone
was like, JoJo's missing after she thanked Beyonce because she
nodded to that conspiracy theory. I'm like, down the road,
she's not missing. She's still posting Jesse. These are two
just little descriptions of JoJo's energy. In twenty twenty four, Okay,
I once read a post that said Jojo Siwa is
(31:59):
an amalgam of every character Melissa McCarthy has ever played,
which is very She's very slapstick, she's very silly. Yeah,
I predict my god, No, this is the best I've
ever read in my whole life. You know, ins and
outs for twenty twenty five. This is the top of
my inn y Jojo Siwa will join the WWE. I
(32:20):
can see it. She was made for w She's a performer,
and she'll be a heel, because there's a hero and
a heel. The heel is the villain that everyone hates
and waits for for like whul Cogan to you know,
go yeah, yeah, yeah, And she'll be wearing leather and
she'll be dancing to Karma and yeah, and everyone'll be
like boo. She'd be like, I love this Jesse. Baby
(32:45):
Reindeer and the Peters Morgan Interview. One of the biggest
shows of the year was Baby Reindeer, a British black
comedy drama thriller TV mini series that's too many to
describe things where, but it was created by and starred
Richard Gadd. It was adapted from his autobiographical one man
(33:09):
show It Wants Six Emmys, and it follows Donnie, a
very unfunny comedian who's trying to make it and his
experience being stalked by Martha. It's a brilliant show. But
plot wise, Donnie eventually reports Martha to the police for stalking, violence,
and threatening his parents, and she's arrested and she serves
nine months in prison. The problem is, as mentioned, it's
(33:33):
based on a true story. I didn't say based it
said this is a true story. Didn't say based. Yeah,
And I think that's where they got in trouble. Yeah,
And it seems Richard is a creative genius. But and
this is a wild allegation. I think he's a lazy boy,
lazy boy, boy boy boy. I don't think he's a
lazy boy. Think maybe Netflix is no, no, no, no, because
I feel like I understand what happened is he wrote
(33:55):
this meant to change, and he meant he had like
he had things underlined. He had like you know on
word where you've highlighted something left to comment. He said
change in capital must must must change. He's just getting
into that now. The thing he had time to change
was the name from Fiona to Martha. Not a great change,
(34:17):
but he definitely meant to change things he didn't change,
which I get. We all run out of time with
creative projects. And then he was like it's okay, No
want to watch her and then it blew up. So
the thing is that the real Martha looks a lot
like fictional Martha. When she came forward and she's like,
I'm the real Martha, Everyone's like here you are, here
you are, and real Martha is pissed. In May, Fiona
(34:40):
mer Harvey, who Martha is based on, was interviewed by
Piers Morgan on Peers Morgan Uncensored and what I get
Peers again, this is what happens when you have no morals,
you get great interviews. She's a Scottish woman with a
law degree, just like Martha, and she wants to sue
for defamation. But there's just one problem. She really highly
(35:02):
recognized herself in that show. Yeah, because she was like
that person that I'm based on isn't me, and I'm
I'm offended because all of the things are true, and
it's like, honey, get your stories, get your stories straight.
So tweets from one of her social media accounts led
fans to figure out that she was the inspiration for
Martha because they had a reference to hanging curtains, which
(35:24):
was a reference in the show like a sexually suggestive
phrase during her uncensored interview. She said she had met
Gad several times, but she did not send him forty
one thousand emails anything to him. There may have been
a couple of emails, Text messages nope, Facebook messages nope.
(35:45):
Did you tweet him? I may have done years and
years ago. You actually tweeted him numerous times. No, it
wasn't humorous. It's about eighteen tweets there or fourteen. It's
got a lot to someone who's not that well known.
She didn't I believe it, but then just as peers
just it just seemed like maybe she did. Okay, she
said she was planning to super defamation. And look, the
(36:09):
issue is, I don't know why he had that character
convicted of actual crime and sentenced to time in jail.
And that is what leads me to believe that somewhere
in his desk there is a posted note that says,
to do today must change identifying details in this story
(36:30):
or legal consequences. Consequences. It's un Yeah, yeah, forgot, but
then but then he got on TikTok and he got distruck.
But Fiona, there's been a few issues because then the
Daily Mail orangested and she's like, I love all this tension.
But then she could apparently there was some journalist interviewer,
and then she accidentally started stalking him. I did say,
(36:51):
there's a few stories that are like now she's talking
me and it's like, Fiona, this is not good evidence. No,
you are not who he says you are. Yes. The
Anne Hathaway Interview and The Idea of You. Anne Hathaway
had a moment in twenty twenty four. She did an
interview on the New York Times podcast The Interview, and
she gave away absolutely nothing. I've never listened to an
(37:14):
interview and learned nothing, not a single thing, absolutely not.
And then she even called him back to feel like,
was I evasive? I still have nothing to say, nothing
to say, cheer God, but I just want to talk
about Then she starred in the Idea of You, and
we need to do a bit of a revisiting because
(37:35):
why'd everyone dead? It was good when it was hi.
It follows Celene played by Anne Hathaway, a forty year
old single mother who becomes romantically yes with hay Is
Campbell played by Nicholas gallitzin a massively famous twenty four
year old British Boy band Paras Stars, and I saw
(37:59):
a headline that was like, the Idea of You is
so much more than just Harry Styles fan fiction. And
I'm like, oh, I really disagree with that. I think
it's simply Harry Styles fan fiction. I think it's a yeah, yeah, yeah,
I just have a few questions. Yeah, why they both
cry so much? Why is it all about her hair?
(38:20):
Very much about the hair chef fringe? Yeah, and the
way she first meets him in the trailer is just
like so unrealistic, like she's just peeing in a private trailer.
It just it all just upset me so much. One
review read, I thoroughly enjoyed watching The Idea of You,
but was it a good movie? Absolutely not. That's exactly
how I feel. Thank you for putting words around it. Yeah.
(38:43):
Speaking of things that were not good, America's Sweethearts Dallas
Cowboys Cheerleaders Loved five Stars that was released on Netflix
and everyone watched it because we were bored. Some observations.
Didn't need to be seven episodes. By the second episode,
I was like, is there some huge twist coming because
this is a lot of bite. No, Because the first
(39:04):
episode I was like, this is problematic we're treating women
like their dolls. This is objectifying. And by the second
I was like, she doesn't have it. She just doesn't
have it. She doesn't have the X factory. I feel
as though she doesn't have the look. She's no the look,
she doesn't have it. I feel like with her high kicks,
her knee isn't straight enough and in fact, she's not
(39:24):
putting her body on the line for future surgery. Yeah,
with how high she's jumping in the air, exactly, poor Victoria.
We all felt very sorry for Victoria. I don't think
she had it. No, no, do more tricks. It was
just a little note yet we have because with all
of that. And then finally we got to watch the
full ACDC Thunderstruck routine and I went, there's a lot
of fast walking, and there's a lot of whittling our
(39:46):
pomp ponds, which I can do. Yeah, I'm gonna need
more of the jump split. Yeah. If you can do
a cart well, if you can do a backflip, if
you can do a trick, you've got to be doing
a trip. Yeah. Kelly was tough but fair. I actually
really admired her. Yep, and yeah, people did try to
analyze it, and by the end I was like, hmm,
I think they're just dancing. I guess we can just
leave it. In July of this year, someone had a
(40:18):
very bad day at work. A man or a woman
was working at a company called CrowdStrike. I'd never heard
of it, and they updated a program and accidentally broke
the world. I hate when this happens. It reminds me
of the Sewers Canal when they got blocked, and I
was like, Ah, that ship got stuck. Yeah, very relatable.
Sounds like an exaggeration, but literally everything got ruined. At
(40:40):
least eight point five million systems crashed and they couldn't restart,
which is the biggest outage in the history of technology.
You couldn't pay on a card. Airport systems were down,
so they couldn't check you in for flights. Internal systems
in hospitals were impacted. We were at dinner and we
were like, Oh my god, are the planes going to
fall out of the air, which confirms that no one
(41:01):
knows how the Internet works or how planes were. No.
I was like, surely it's a Wi Fi. Yeah, surely
they run on NBN. No.
Speaker 4 (41:12):
No.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
We were like, oh no, because it looked for a
minute like it was a cyber at half, and we went, oh, no,
can we order Olbirata?
Speaker 4 (41:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (41:19):
And then when we could, we didn't worry. Yeah. And
then by the time we went to pay, the machine
was fine again. So it was okay for us, It
wasn't okay for others. Joe Biden steps back and Kamala
steps forward. So on July the twenty first, president Joe
Biden stepped down from the presidential race and nominated Kamala Harris.
This followed what Politico termed the worst debate performance in
(41:43):
American history by Biden. The terminent initiative relative to what
we're going to do with more border patrol and more
I weally don't know what he said at the end
of those I don't think he knows me he said either.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
Look, we had the safest border in the history of
our country, so all he had to do was leave.
Speaker 1 (42:03):
It's the line in the presidential debate where he goes,
we have one hundred trillionaires, wait billionaires, and if we
tack some twenty four percent or twenty five percent, we
could raise five hundred million or billion dollars. I think
that's very where Joe Biden was at and I don't
say that critically because Trump's been there or why he
lived there. He also said, making sure that we're able
(42:27):
to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've
been able to do with with the COVID, excuse me,
with dealing with everything we had to do with. Look
if we finally beat Medicare. And at that point the
convener of the debate stopped him. Ah, because even Trump
looked embarrassed. Yeah, the man out of his misery. Just
(42:48):
it's fine. There was a video where it looked like
Biden was speaking to someone who wasn't there. There was
one where I kind of stuff on stage. I love.
I love the videos. I don't know if they're real,
I don't know if they're out of context, but the
videos where he turns to with air and extends his
hand to shake, they give me a lot of joy.
So Biden was eighty one when he stepped down, and Harris,
(43:09):
who was fifth nine, began her campaign. That's when Charlie
XCX did the whole bratz brat and it looked like
we were all preparing to potentially see a woman becoming
the president of the United States for the first time. Yeah. Yeah.
We should also mention that earlier in the year there
was an assassination. Oh yeah, Bond, Donald Trump, Yeah, yep.
(43:30):
And I have to say, when I think back, it
was the moment where he had the bleeding ear, he
had his arm in the air and the American flag
was blowing in the wind behind him that I went,
I think he's got it. I think he's got it
in the back, I think he's got the election. The
Olympics started in late July, and luckily we were still
(43:51):
high off Dallas cheerleaders, so we were like, we're here
for elite athletes. Yeap, and Simon Biles was like, you
bitches want to watch me fly literally fly? Yeah yeah.
And Watrick Snoop was there. No, he was at every event.
He was front and center, and unfortunately he was in
attendance at the first breaking competition in Olympic history. No,
(44:13):
it was Saturday morning, Australia time when one of our
brothers messaged us and said, I'm gonna need you to
look up the Australian breaking because this moment is about
to go viral. And we watched that performance and went, yes, yeah,
the world is going to need to communally process. Yeah,
Australia isn't known for its breaking. If we have great breakers, respectfully,
(44:37):
don't look like Reygun. She didn't do anything that required
any skill maybe the headstand, and because of that she
did not earn a single point. No, it looked like
a seizure. People went through the seven stages of Greece.
We were sad and then we're embarrassed, and then people
got really angry. And I was like, I think Raygan
knows it wasn't good. No, no, let the woman live
(45:00):
Adele couldn't get through her concert without bringing up and
we talk a theme of this podcast, lady girls, she's
a lazy girl patron sa. I think Raygun was like,
oh my god, I'm going to the Olympics for breaking.
I better work really and then she got distracted and
then she turned out and I was like, uh, oh, kangaroo.
(45:21):
And I think who among us hasn't thought I'm gonna
do something really hard? But you know what, I think
I'm gonna wing it, and I think it's gonna go
really really well. Actually, I think sometimes i'm the lies
we tell ourselves. I'm got under pressure. Yeah, yeah, I'm
better the less I prepare. Yah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can over prepare, and I think the others have
over prepared. You can overwork a breaking life. I've got
(45:41):
to be really in the moment and just react to
what's in front of me. I've got to like absorb
the energy of the crowd. I also think maybe she
put on that outfit provided by the Australian Olympic team
and she went, there isn't a way to make this
routine look good while I'm wearing this outfit. Yeah, I
don't think the hat had to stay on. It didn't
(46:02):
because you don't need some protection when you're on your head.
Some of my favorite reactions were pictures of ray Gun
and it said what my nephew does after telling us
to watch this and she's simply laying sideways on the ground.
The possum in my backyard when it sees my dog
and it's doing a little bit of a kick. And
also when we said every Olympic event should include one
(46:22):
average person for a reference, it was meant to be
a joke, but then we got a ray Gum. I
didn't get on one point, No darling. Then the internet
turned on Blake Lively in August. It ends with Us
as released, and it's based on the best selling book
of the same name by Colleen Hoover. Tells the story
of Lily Bloom played by Blake Lively, and she escapes
(46:44):
a rough childhood and meets her seemingly dream guy, Ryle Kingkate.
Ryle is played by Justin Baldoni, who was very much
in the zeitgeis for a hot minute, but Blake Lively
got in lots of trouble because in an Instagram video
promoting the movie, which again heavily features domestic violence, she said,
(47:05):
it ends with us as in theaters now, so grab
your friends, were your florals and head out to see it.
People thought this was tone deaf. She was very like, yay,
we're pink. Then there was an interview where she was
asked a terrible question, very badly worded, confusing question about
if people come up to you on the street, how
do you want them to tell you about their experiences
(47:27):
or something very odd, and she said like asking for
my address or my phone number? Location share? I can
location share you? Oh, Blake? Wrong? Tone right, wrong? Don't
She seemed to be using the publicity around the movie
to also promote her other businesses, her hair care yeah,
and also her cocktail Yes. Then, of course, an interview
(47:50):
was unearthed from twenty sixteen by Norwegian journalist Kirsty Fluff,
and the interview opened with flu congratulating Lively on her
little bump because she was pregnant. First of all, congrats
on your little bump. Congrats on your little bump. And
then she got offended about a very benign question about
costs gyms. But then, and this is what always happens,
(48:12):
everybody went, oh my gosh, poor journalist bullied by Blake Lively.
Blake Lively is a witch. Cast her out, cast her out.
But then Kirsty Flower shared another uncomfortable interview with Anne Hathaway,
and it was a bit like, babe, keep doing this, Babe.
I'd leave at a friend who every workplace she just
(48:33):
goes every workplace I go, they don't respect me. And
it's like, mate, I thank you shitty. Your job among
us hasn't sat around a table and gone shit, you're
the one everyone hates at work during competent like she
was upset because she asked Anne Hathaway to answer questions
in song, and Anne Hathaway laughed and basically said, I
(48:54):
shan't be doing that, and it's like what self respect
actually applauding Anne Moodng, moving on to Mown Moodang, a
baby pygmy hippo, went viral in September of this year
after being born in July in Thailand. Moodang obviously translates
to mean bouncy pig or bouncy pork. MoU is the
(49:15):
youngest of seven and his joys include playing with water,
doing roly polys, and food. Damn it, it's a she.
She has been described as the Girl of twenty twenty four.
So why so popular? Well, Moodng is apparently more playful
and energetic than other hippopotamuses. She also has lovely rosy cheeks,
(49:37):
but capitalism inevitably ruins everything. There's merch, there's a Moodden cryptocurrency.
You can get mood Den Christmas cards and Mooden calendars.
Influencers were like his how to get Mujang's look? Come on,
and it's like speaking of unrealistic beauty standards. Now I'm
expected to lure like a dewy pygmy hippone. Do you
want to know how to get Moodang's look okay, because
(49:58):
it's like a gray eyes shadow look. Oh and a
really lovely blush. Is it pretty? It's fine? Yeah? Okay.
Then in November, the Zoo posted a video of Moodang
choosing between two fruit dishes feature the names Donald Trump
and Kamala Harris to see who her election prediction was.
Do you remember this? Oh, I missed. I totally missed this.
(50:18):
I know. I thought, ah, this is when we hit
rock box. Hey, we don't know what's gonna happen, Moodang.
Do you By the way, everyone's making money off my
name and my enclosure stayed exactly the same. I don't
wear clothes and I have no bank account, so please
(50:40):
explain to me where the Moodan cryptocurrency? Fuck you? And
then Moodang walked over. I ate the fruit platter of
Donald Trump and got it more right than every bolster. Well,
I just I was thinking earlier this year. I thought
what would I do if I had unlimited funds? And
I thought I'd fly to Thailand. I'd see Moodang. No,
apparently you can only see Mudang for five minutes at
(51:01):
a time now because people throw things at people are
the worst people are horrible. Well, I would go there
and I would help because I have unlimited fund. Yeah,
I would actually help Moudan move into a better enclosure.
And I help her to trademarkt Yeah, like get on
the phone to Megan. Yeah, I'd say trademark before making
your instgra or whatever. But yes, trademark Moodan, you need
(51:22):
some business advice, ye, Jesse chapel Ron can't come to work.
Chapel Rone is twenty six, and she's a singer songwriter
who is hugely popular with jen Z and just generally
cool people. In October, she canceled a pair of festival
performances in New York and Maryland, saying that she needs
to take care of herself because she was struggling to
(51:42):
manage expectations and harassment and privacy concerns. She's talked a
lot about struggling with fame. She's posted all these TikTok
videos kind of criticizing people for approaching her in public
and saying it's weird and just because she's famous doesn't
mean she's not entitled to get a photo with me. Yes,
for some fans, they're a bit like, well, I bought
(52:03):
tickets to go and see you in New York and
I can't get a refund on my flights, And then
other people are like, well, mental health very important. All
I have to say is lazy girl, hard related lazy.
She's a lazy girl. You looked at your calendar and
you went, I don't want to do it. I thought
I wanted to be famous. Yes, I thought I want
And it's more work than I anticipated energetically, and also
(52:27):
have enough money. Now, yeah, it's all good. I'll just
take my money. It's like gambling. I'll just check out.
She could also probably at this point just have a
career as a TikToker who posts about how annoying it
is to be famous. Fine, like you don't have to
release any more music or perform. Actually it's fine, just
get brand deals about like being lazy. Yeah, Jesse, nobody
(52:48):
wants this. Everyone was watching Nobody Wants This in like
September October, starring Adam Brody and Kristen Bell, the show
about a sex podcaster and a newly single rabbi falling
in love. We all became sickeningly obsessed with Adam Brody Jesse.
Here were some of the best reactions Adam Brody's is
(53:09):
in this show is off the charts. It's like Seth
Cohen grew a beard and realized how fine he was
and sent an entire generation of OC girls into heat.
That's exactly what happened. Adam Brady is a perfect romance
lead and we have severely underutilized that in the last
ten to fifteen years. That's what everyone realized was like,
why did it take us this long? Why has he
only had fleeting parts? Yeah, yeah, he's a leading man.
(53:30):
There are celeb crushes, and then there's whatever the hell
I feel about Adam Brady. It is deeper because we
knew him as a kid. Yeah, not a kid, yeah, adult,
We've grown up with him. We then move into November.
It's a lead up to Schoolies and Australia has a
new tradition where sex workers from only fans keep yelling
that they're going to have sex with your sons on
camera and then everyone says no, please don't, and mothers squeal,
(53:53):
mother's squeal, They clutch their pearls. They say not my
not my little boy. He's only a child, yeah, and
then they say no, he's not try and stop us,
and then the sex worker says, there's a line of
them at my door and they're like, not my son,
and it's like I think maybe, I think maybe one
could be your son. The story is repetitive, he's bizarre, yes,
(54:15):
and it is mesmerizing because you got it's like a
game off ping pong, because the only Fans starts go,
I'm gonna make them have sex on camera, yeah, and
post it to my only fans and make money and
not pay them, and then the mothers are like, don't
do that. And then you know that they're going to
go back, and then they're going to go, that's not legal,
(54:35):
and then they're going to go back and go it
is legal, and yeah, it's just a really well it's
not ethical, and they'll say, I don't give a shit
about ethics. That's what's going wrong. So Bunny Blue and
Annie Knight, who say they've made a fortune from posting
content on only Fans, announced in November that they'd be
targeting barely legal boys for their content. I saw that
they went to Fiji. Did you see that they were
(54:56):
pursued by local authorities and some would say chased out
of the country. They didn't get to meet any of
the boys. Was the publicity worth it? Because yes, okay,
the publicity was great for them. I saw it and
I was like, excellent, your only fans go, your TikTok
going off. You are going to make bank. However, being
publicly pursued by authorities quite stressful, the rage baiting of
(55:20):
the whole thing. And you can seit in her eyes
when she's just like, I'm going to say something fused
and watch my bank account grow up, and it's like,
you know who you shouldn't cross? Boy moms, boy moms,
because boy moms, yeah, have some protecting to do. Yeah,
and probably the boy mums are running the AFP and
the Australian Federal Police are in VIGI. Yeah. And guests
(55:41):
who canceled your visa, Bonnie Blue? Yeah, a boy mum,
because all these people were like, hold on, if you're
here just on holiday, you can't be making money, Bonnie Blue.
Then they were like, we've canceled speaking of law? Yeah,
is that a reference to this being a courtroom? No,
speaking of the law and them saying that they are
(56:03):
not breaking the law. Oh. Yeah, you just know that
there are a lot of lawyers going I'm gonna find
I'm going to get thing. Yeah, I'm gonna get you.
And so yeah, no, we did throw everyone into a
bit of a tizzy, didn't it. I wonder what's happening? Schoolies?
Has just happened? Why should have Bonnie Blue can't even
be here. I wonder if any night she's on the prow.
(56:26):
I think she's on the prow. We now find ourselves
in December and we have Wicked. And if you're not
taking the lyrics of defying gravity and really holding space
with that and feeling power in that, then what are
you doing? What are you doing? Jess? It's a weird
end of the year because it's like very earnest and
very I don't know the fact that we're all going
into a cinema and watching a movie about a green
(56:48):
witch and sobbing. Does that say something about how broken
we are as a species. I think we'd all rather
be in Oz. Yeah what munchkin Land. People are reading
into it about you know, the Wizard of Oz being
a bit like Donald Trump, and it's like, yeah, I
don't know. I think we're just things aren't good. I
think we should before we go. I think that we
(57:09):
should choose our lazy because we have a few contenders.
Oh wow, Yeah, we have ray Gun hit in prep. Yeah,
Chapel Roan, we have Megan Markel. They launched with no
follow through. Yeah yeah, she did send out fifty jars
of jam, but only I think four people posted. Yeah,
that's not a good hit rate. At least forty jar
of jam and didn't even post to their grid and
(57:30):
it was a lazy plan. Yeah, yeah, I'm going to
go Meghan. I'm going to go Meghan. I think that
we're launching our brands. We're trying to cultivate a bit
of momentum. We're hiring teams and we're losing teams allegedly,
and I still don't have a salad bowl a tablecloth.
How about a jar of mal Malay brand. I have
(57:53):
some people in my life. Yeah, that would be the
funniest PAS present.
Speaker 4 (57:57):
Would you like?
Speaker 1 (57:58):
Meghan Markle Serbia Okay, my lazy girl of the er yep,
I've got two? Okay one the team behind the Wonker
Experience it was one man. And when you say the team,
I think who you're referring to as chat GPT. Okay, yes,
very lazy, but actually that's my runner up Number one.
(58:23):
Mood Deang. I think moodg is the laziest hippo. Yeah,
because she wanders in her enclosure, yes, and falls up
with look and fresh looking, and everyone's like, I want
to do my makeup like Moodang. I want to be
like Moudang. I want Moodang on my hat. And Moodang's like,
(58:43):
you want me to eat a fruit bowl to pick
the election. Fine, I'm not going to do it efficiently,
but I'll do it and I'll pick it right. And
I just think Moodang is a lazy girl for the ages.
I love it. I love it. Thank you so much

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Computer security company CrowdStrike has been linked to the outage
that is affecting banks, airports, supermarkets and businesses across Australia
and the world.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
I'm a singer, Charlie XCX tweeted last night Kamala is brats.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
It's shall.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Every year we joke about how it's been a bit fire,
but this one really actually has. There are actual global
atrocities occurring every day, and we lived in a deeply
cooked reality where there is relentless suffering over there and
then over here we're analyzing wicked or getting mad at
a woman on TikTok or elon Musks tweeting you are
(01:36):
the media now and it's like, ah, this is broken.
It's a strange time. But here on Canceled, we are
just two lazy girls who want to take the piss,
and that is what we shall do about the year
of our Lord, twenty twenty four. Jesse, How should I
introduce twenty twenty four? It's a year. It's the current year,
(01:56):
three hundred and sixty something days. Yeah, was this Alepia?
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
I don't care.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
No, anyway, it's twenty twenty four. If you're listening in
twenty twenty five, it was last year. That's yeah. I
was gonna say, if you're listening in twenty twenty three,
it's next year. I thought i'd enter the vibe into
the courtroom about this year, because we can get a
bit confused, like, oh, but it's today, it's this month. Well, no,
let's get a more holistic view of this year. So
(02:21):
to do that, I thought I would bring in the
words of the year according to various dictionaries. I thought
you were going to say it started on sort of
twelve oh one jan one, and then like the medal
was around kind of beginning of July. Yeah, and now
we're here, Yeah, no, I'm going to talk about some language. Okay, Now,
I reckon My dream job would be the person who
(02:42):
works at Dictionaries and Picks. Word of the Year I say,
my I was from a friend recently. I said, that
person's a loser. That person is a loser because they're
just like, why don't we do what was the one?
There was a Beyonce one where they were like, the
word is she did a dance or something, and they
just they love it. It's like skibbity toilet. Oh, it's
(03:05):
just a old people being like, Oh, they're saying cozy
lives a lot and it's like four years ago. Maybe
they just ruin it. It's like your job is to
ruin the fun. Well, and you just knew that someone
had a little yeah they're in the tea room and
a little biki and actually went I've got it. I've
got it. It's bootylicious. If you had that. Oh no, no, Sarah,
(03:28):
I haven't heard of that. Well it's Beyonce. It's a
bit naughty. And we're putting it in the dictionary to
stay current and hip with the kids, honey, because buying
dictionaries you are redundant. We need to accept it. Okay. Well,
the Colins Dictionary Word of the Year was bratt. I
love how they all compete for like dictionary brand yeah,
(03:49):
brat yeah Ann. It's the title of an album by
Charlie XC Yeah and no one, I don't care what
you say. No one knows what it means. It's characterized
by a confident, independent and hedonistic attitude, but it's also
an aesthetic and a way of life. Yeah, meaning less cool.
This is one we discussed on the weekend. Macquarie Dictionary
has got of the Year is en shitification. Yeah, it's
(04:09):
my favorite. Do you to describe the moment we have
everything's become shit, everything around us has become shit. We
went to a place that we used to go, like
when we were at Uni, and it was about twelve
years ago. I'd say we would go to this place
and we'd get a sandwich. And we went there and
we went, Oh, for all time's sake, let's go and
get a sandwich. Bread with shit, chicken with shit, let
us with shit. They just spat on it, kicked it
(04:30):
at us. Paper was shit and I went sevent shitter
than it was. And I'm not imagining it, and I
reckon double the price and double the price. Demure is
the other word, very demure, very mindful. So this started
with the TikToker who was like, you, see.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
How you do my makeup for work? Very demure, very mindful.
I don't come to work with a green cut crease.
Don't look like a clown. When I go to work,
I don't do too much. I'm very mindful while I'm
at work. See how I look very presentable. The way
I came to the interview is the way I go
to the job.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Brain rot exactly what we do that captures concerns about
the type of content work. And yeah, everyone has just
accepted that their brains are gradually becoming eroding. It's like
we can feel the erosion in real time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Honorable mentions go to yapping having a yap. No one
(05:23):
made that up. Yapping is an old old and skibbity.
This isn't. This is just a genser in the Alphas
who think they're so cool just make up shit and
they get everyone gets their panties and a not. Everyone gets, Oh,
they're all saying skibbity toilet. Now they're not. They're not.
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, and we don't need
(05:44):
to know what it means. Yeah, they're not buying drugs
with it, Ah, that we know of. So that's the vibe.
But Jesse, let's get into our recap slash cancelation of
twenty twenty four. We entered the year weirdly into tradwives. Okay,
so this is the year where the traditional wife made
a comeback, not the nineteen fifties. I drug myself and
(06:05):
I'm in a gendered prison. Kind no, no, no, that we
know of. I saw an ad the other day for
antidepressants from the nineteen fifties, and it had a picture
of a housewife in a ninety looking a little unhinged,
to be honest, and it said, mornadine now she can
cook breakfast again. Mournerdine was an antidepressant. Yeah, so this
was like a nineteen fifties ad of like drug your wife,
(06:26):
she'll cook your egg. But weirdly, I see those ads
and I'm like, we still got that drug? Can I
asks could just go to your GP. Are we doing mornerdine?
Because making breakfast makes me need an antidepressant? Please? Anyway,
everyone forgot that nineteen fifties housewives were not stoked. That's
why we had the feminist revolution, which we've forgotten about
(06:46):
and that was about equal pay and birth control and
credit cards. But then everyone's been on TikTok too much
brain rot. They forgot feminism and they're like, why did
we leave the kitchen? And they're like, guys, hear me out.
Nineteen fifties one word Mournerdine Ballerina farm has been one
of the biggest tad wives, even though she doesn't identify
as one. And then there's Nara Smith. Have you looked
(07:08):
at Narasmith's content? Yes, she'll be like my children wanted
their glass of milk, so I bought a cat start
of milking. I didn't want milks scratch and I'm like, Nara, honey,
you gotta get some hobbies. Okay. So Nara whispers while
she makes like a rice dish in a ball gown.
(07:29):
That's her aesthetic. I saw recently she did a what
my toddler eats and a David and I went, we
all need ideas, we need some creativity. So I thought
I ended to share with you. And it's like, how
much yogurt is? Yeah, that's the only question. Ever, It's
like it's three pouches too many for breakfasts. Okay, this
is what she did apple copow. I have question marks
(07:50):
because I'm like, is that a cereal? It's not. It's
not like cocoa pops copow. That enough pumpkin pancakes. That's
silly pumpkin for breakfast. Not appropriate. Toddler wouldn't like that tea.
I don't know if she was like my Toddler's love
tea and I was like, is this a joke? Can
you imagine my baby drinking tea? Being like, I'll have
(08:13):
a t she'd go, what too hot? Drop a glass.
Then she did like a mid morning cheese board, and
she did cheese, salami, pistachios, and it's always a fruit.
I've never heard of it. It's never like a banana
and apple. It was like a platter. And I don't
know where I went wrong, But if I put a
platter out for our little girls, they would pick up
(08:34):
the most highly pigmented fruit and they would smash on
the couch. They would go to the rug, they would
push it in and then they'd throw said platter at
each other. Yes, exactly right, and none would go in
the mouth. I don't know if they're meant to sit
around the grazing board and have a chat with a
glass of wine. Go h, We'll just crack open this pistachio.
Is that what we're doing? Because the fine motive skills
(08:55):
of your baby ain up to scratch. Lunch lentil soup
with kale. Alright, if someone offered me that flunch, I'd
cry for dinner. Something quick and simple. Coconut milk, poached cod.
I don't understand coconut milk. That means she bought a
coconut and milked it. Yeah, milked it with its teeth.
(09:17):
When I make something quick, it is a can of
baked beans. Yes, room temperature. Here's a spoon. Actually, I
don't give her a spoone fits it anyway. The philosophical
question of the year is why we became addicted to
trad wives And the answer is because women are very
tired and they think it would be lovely to live
on a funp baker cake and let's be honest, have
(09:38):
an eleven am nap because that's what we imagine naras doing. Yeah,
that's what I think about the trad wife life. But
you know, things about for women. When we're fantasizing about oppression,
things are not good. The nineteen fifties fantasy also came
with shit husbands. You couldn't leave because he had no money.
Things were not ideal for women. No, but the trad
wife trend does continue. Okay. Well, the other thing that
(10:02):
happened early in the year if February was Barnaby Joyce
got drunk in a plan to box Yep.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
I made a big mistake. There's no excuse for it.
There's a reason, you know, there's a very eventful walk home,
wasn't it. I'm on a prescription drug and they say
certain things may happen to you if you drink, and
they were absolutely one hundred percent right they did.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
And I remember my first traction. I saw him, I
saw him laying their legs in the air. Ahh, And
I went, who among us, raise your hand? Who among
us has never fallen fallen into a plant like a
bug on its back? Who can't get up drunk a plant?
(10:47):
I remember once, And I'm not saying this is a
good thing, because I was overseas and I wasn't tracking
my alcohol consumption. Because when I had to carry me
home and I was put in a plant box at
one stage because it was steady, and he put me
down because he had to readjust me, when I'll put
you in the plant box, because at least then I
know where you are. Well, that's your well, it's a
(11:11):
quiet Canbra street. Barnaby Choice had been chatting on his phone.
He was simply sitting in the planter box when he
fell off, and he did say to media, if I
had known someone was there with a camera, I would
have got up quicker. In the video, he's swearing, he's
saying all sorts of things. His behavior was taken seriously
in some corners with headlines like Barnaby Joyce's drunken behavior
(11:34):
raises questions about political culture and double standards in Canberra,
because I guess you're a public fit like you're nah
no again glasshouses. It is, yes, it is an Australian
right to have our moments, I think he said, and
this is a classic. I've pulled it. You've pulled it.
(11:55):
He was on a medication. Yeah yeah, and then you
lose track. That's the excuse that you used to go, Oh,
I've just it interacted with it. It interacted. You know
about interactions. Doctors are like what the chaser ran astirical story.
Former Deputy PM Barnaby. Joyce denies being too drunk while
lying on a Braden's sidewalk. This is the most sober
(12:17):
I have ever been while Barnaby. At the end of February,
the Willy Wonka Experience Wonker Wonker held in Glasgow. It
was advertised as the place where chocolate dreams become reality.
It boasted an enchanted garden, a twilight tunnel and an
(12:38):
imagination lab. If you're thinking I don't think any of
those featured in Wonka, you'd be right. Tickets cost thirty
five pounds, which is nearly seventy dollars, and visitors were
promised surprises at every turn, and surprises they got. Oh lovely.
Families who turned up were subject to and this is
a quote, little more than an abandoned empty warehouse. Apparently
(12:58):
it looked like a meth lab, and having cited the image,
is very a meth lab. There were a handful of
actors employed and it was their first You won't believe it,
but it was their first acting job ever. And they
were given the script at six pm on Friday and
the event started on the Saturday. They turned up to
address rehearsal on that Friday. They saw the space and
were like Jesus, And then the organizers were like, yes,
(13:19):
it's being fitted out overnight, but when they turned up
in the morning it had not been fitted Okay, it's
very fire festival. Yes, now I need to talk about
the script because you might be sitting there going what script? Well,
why does the willy walker experience the script? A woman
named Kirsty was hired to play one of the MP lumpers,
but in the script they were referred to as wonky doodles. Okay,
(13:43):
is that because MPs was trademarked. I think trademark Claire.
I think this is Kirsty as a wonky doodle. Please
describe the image. She's simply a depressed It's very a
team OU outfit. Jesse. Why is she in a meth lab?
(14:03):
I don't know. The script was strange in that it
included stage directions for the audience and Paul Connell, who
played Willie McDuck there were three Willy mick Ducks described
it as fifteen pages of AI generated gibberish, of me
(14:23):
just monologuing these mad things. Yes, so this is if
chat GPT organized your event, the wonker experience is what
you get. A sixteen year old named Felicia played a
character called the Unknown, and she wore a silver mask
and a black coat. Apparently she lives in the walls
(14:44):
and no one knows what her relationship is to Wonka.
In the script, the Unknown was to be defeated by
a vacuum cleaner, but no prop was provided, so the
actors had to improvise. Apparently the Unknown really frightened the children. Jersey, Okay, firstly,
(15:05):
for my daughter's first birthday, we're having a very very
hungry caterpillar theme birthday. And I regret every because it
should have been a Wonk experience. Would have gone as
a Wonky doodle. Yeah, and Matelda would have been the Unknown.
And I think that, like this was all a laugh
and it became, you know, a laughing stock. It was mocked. Yeah,
(15:26):
I reckon mark my words twenty twenty five. Every country
will want their own Wonk or experience because this is
simply it's iconic. They were like, if this was a
few weeks later before it got shut down, which we'll do,
would have bought tickets. Yeah. Absolutely. Employees were told to
give each child two jelly beans and a quarter of
(15:48):
a cup of lemonade, but then they run out after
After the first few performances, the actors were told to
abandon the script and just tell the guests to walk
through the venue, which took them maybe two minutes. The
unknown character was now scaring children for no reason, given
(16:11):
that she had no discernible role. By the end this,
Paul Connell said, the threat of violence was high. Temper's
rose and the police were called to the One Grew
Experience Highlight Highlight of twenty twenty four. Okay, moving on too.
Also in February, Taylor and Travis at the Super Bowl.
(16:34):
Taylor Swift went to support her boyfriend Travis Kelsey, who
was playing in the Super Bowl for the Chiefs. I
think so. I think he was playing for me. It
was on the office for the first time because we
were just wanting to spot Taylor. Yeah. And there were
two moments from this that I haven't stopped thinking about, right,
I mean, Super Bowl, Yay performances. Whatever was it? That
(16:54):
first touchdown? Absolutely not. Taylor Swift was in the crowd
like chugging beer. Blake Lively was next to her, Yeah,
looking very out of her LA. Yeah, she was just
very done for an NFL game. The two things I
can't stop thinking about one. After Travis Kelsey's team won,
Taylor embraced him, and there's a video where you can
(17:16):
hear what they're saying to each other. He says, how
are you here right now? And she says jet lag
is a choice. I think about that every day. Every day.
I think, is jet lag a choice? Jet lag is
not a I don't think it's a choice because I
think generally with tiredness. I love Taylor Swift, but I'm
about to say something we jet lag might be a choice,
(17:38):
been god, private jet and maybe a double better. Yeah, okay, true,
very very true. But I also think something about her
work ethic. Maybe jet lag is a choice. Maybe we're
all lazy. Maybe it is a choice. It's like when
someone said that we all have the same ales and
the day as Beyonce and I'm not really defensive, and
I was like, no, we don't. I think we do.
I think we do. Jeff the other bit. I can't
(18:00):
stop thinking about Travis chanting Beaver Las Vegas. Oh that
was so well the trophy. I went no, no, no, no,
(18:20):
na run. I think we've all had that experience of
watching someone we thought we liked change shout get with
the boy. Yeah, and we do something I don't like it,
and then still people are like, oh, Travis and Taylor.
It's like, well, are you not thinking about that? Because
(18:43):
I am because I go to put my head down
at night and I can't hear it. Hello, lazy girls,
we have got your Christmas gift sorted, because let's be real,
you don't have it sorted. You don't have it sorted,
and you were going to maybe order something, but you
don't know if it's going to be here in time,

have any wrapping paper or sticky tape. No, I do

(19:54):
Jesse j Lo releases This Is Me Now. Look, there's
a lot to say about benefit, but you might say
that the release of This Is Me Now was the
beginning of the end, or was the beginning of the
end right before they broke up the first time? Was
that the medal? Or was it? Yeah? Yeah, there's an
(20:15):
album called This Is Me Now, and there's also a
musical film called This Is Me Now A Love Story,
And there's also a documentary about the making of the
album and the film titled The Greatest Love Story Never Told.
It's all self funded by Lopez and it went over
its twenty million dollar budget. I've watched all of them,
(20:36):
all the iterations. Wow. Yeah, I believe in my soul
that the love story has been told, has through various mediums.
Three documentary, through Philma, Philimma, through Instagram, yep, through I
think there might have been a plantation wedding in there. Yeah,
we know. In the documentary about the film about the album,
(20:59):
Ye we hear about love letters, Affleck wrote to Lopez.
I seen them and kept during his marriage Jennifer Ghannah
and yeah, they nicknamed him pan Affleck. I don't need
to know that. No, I don't need to know no.
By May, there were reports that ben Affleck hadn't been
photographed with his wife Lopez in forty seven and days,
and by that point we were like, it's done. Also
(21:21):
in May, Lopez interacted with a social media post about
unhealthy relationship. I remember that. And then they attended Affleck's
daughter's graduation together and we were like things are fine.
Things were not fine because in June Affleck moved his
belongings out of their shared home and in July j
(21:43):
Lo turned fifty five and had that Bridgitt themed party
and he didn't come yet. Looked like it slapped. It
looked really really. I always think it is a red
flag if your partner buys a mansion in a different suburban,
moves into it and then you have marked my words,
it's done. And then yeah for birthday party and don't
invite him, Yeah, yeah, done, and you haven't been photographed together.
(22:04):
In August, the official news broke that Jaylo was filing
for divorce, and I believe it was the content that
was the issue. And also j Lo was no longer
going on tour for This Is Me Now. Apparently that
didn't sell enough tickets. I hate that room makes me
feel seen. I know, I know. Oh, I just tell myself.
She wanted the summer off. Yeah, to grieve. Yeah. Twenty
(22:25):
twenty four was the year that Bennifer really came to die.
I Team Jen interesting. The Cape Middleton controversy, it is
I cannot believe that was this year. It is so
easy to forget how this started because it is simply
so shameful. But at the beginning of this year, the
vibe was where is Kate? They've killed Kate. There's a conspiracy.
(22:48):
We were not, we were not in a good place
for the culture. We're not. They've replaced her with an imposter.
Do you remember seeing all the photos That's not Kate,
that's not Kate. That was insane. Yeah. Yeah. There's a
literal website called where is Katemiddleton dot com? Okay. The
website says, we want to take a moment with you
to share the purpose behind this creation. I think us
(23:10):
to find out where Kate Middleton is dot com. As
you may have noticed, we established this space because we
recognized a need for a central hub where public thoughts,
articles and theories surrounding the disappearance of Princess of Wales
Kate Middleton could live. Our intention was born out of
concern for the well being and whereabouts of the princess.
(23:31):
That's why, that is why we are. We find that
hunting is a good way to get her back. We
genuinely hope for her safety, wellbeing and swift recovery from
any medical condition. The question who are you? Who are you,
detective Artie, oh, detective Yeah? Sounds legitimate. However, we also
acknowledge that things haven't been the same since December twenty five,
(23:54):
twenty twenty three. We cannot ignore the sense that something
is a miss. While our hopes remained steadfast for the
Princess's health and happiness, we recognize the need for open
dialogue and discussion surrounding recent events until she returned. So
what it does is it updates every time there's anything
to do with Kate Middleton. They gave up actually because
(24:15):
it's like last public appearance December twenty five, twenty twenty three,
last video appearance March twenty twenty four, and then recent
public appearance was tripping the color in June twenty twenty four,
so they're like, we acknowledge, we have now seen her.
This website still exists and it's very but they're not
keeping up to date. No, she has done that video
since when she did that folk album. Yeah, she was
(24:38):
in her kind of forest gallivanting around here. Yeah. Yeah,
Well I would imagine that this website really went nuts
during the photoshop photo conspiracy. Yeap, So when was that March?
That was in March? So a photo of Kate Middleton
and her kids is released by Kensington Palace for UK
Mother's Day and then this was wild. All the photo
(25:02):
agencies are like, we're retracting this because it's clearly edited.
AAP said it appeared the source of manipulated the image
in a way that did not meet the Associated Press
photo stand because people noticed it. And this is something
we often say on this podcast, because it's an edit
that you get in book editing, which is NQR. Yeah,
she's not quite right. Yeah, and that's how I would
(25:24):
define I mean to a greater extent than wanker experience.
But the thing about AI is that it's just n QR. IT'SR.
You looked at that photo hand was in the wrong place,
someone's jumper and did Charlotte's legs. The edges were unnaturally soft,
just wasn't real and you just go internet slouths too
much time and then AAP's like, look, thanks for the criticism.
(25:44):
This photo simply ain't it. Ain't it. So it was
only two weeks later that Kate then publicly shared her
cancer diagnosis. I didn't realize it was that quick. So
clearly she's like, everyone's really mad. Got to come, Clay,
I've got it. I've got to tell them. So she
announced that they had found cancer when they did this
surgery in January. Then in June she did the forest photo.
(26:07):
The forest photo, this one, oh yes, yes, yes, yes,
under the tree. Yeah, I remember there was common tree.
At the time, being like, well she looks, well, what
if not everyone looks that well after cancer and it's
like she can look out she looks. Then she made
the public appearance and trooping the color. And then in
November for Remembrance Day, she made a public appearance and
(26:29):
a British TV host tweeted genuine question, why has Kate
aged so much? Isn't she only forty two? Is she
a smoker. It's the only explanation the woman has, even
if the woman didn't have cancer. I'm sorry. Did you
hear about the Wonkricks? Did you? I'm sorry? Did you
hear the benefit time? Did you hear about Barnaby Joyce
(26:50):
and the planet works? It? Spin is a spenty year
for all of us. Yeah, I look one hundred years
older than I did in January. And Kate's actually been
through some shit. Kate has been through some shit. In March,
Megan Markle launched her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Let's throw
in all Shit Montecito. The month before, she filed a
(27:13):
trademark application like for that brand and to sell things
like tablewhere cookbooks, textiles, jellies, and marmalades. Were very excited.
It seemed lovely, a bit goofy, a bit Martha Stewart.
But we've said it once and we will say it
again that Meghan loves announcing a project. I have to say.
She works slow. She works she works slow. I get it,
(27:37):
same as me. Very lazy girl. She's a lazy girl.
She's got the momentum. She's gone yeah blah la la
lah energy, and she's not moved fast and break things. No,
she's moved slow and don't make anything yeah yeah, and
absolutely no hate because I think the announcement of anything
is the best bit. How many people go, I'm going
to do a podcast three months in there, like, oh
(27:58):
my god, you wanted something every week? That's I'm done.
And I was worried pretty quick that she'd lose momentum.
But we're wrong because the next month, Meghan unveiled her
Jam flavor Strawberry Oh. A few influencers posted about the jam,
including Chris Jenner, Mindy Kaling, and Chrissy Teakin. Details like
(28:20):
the cost or where we could buy it were not released.
It's not good marketing, it's not yet good awareness building.
What you want when Chris Jenna shares your product at
you want to link. You want an affiliate link that
you can see that you can buy the theme. Because
what we've got is a lot of hype and not
a lot of jam. Not a lot of jam. Too
(28:40):
much hype, not enough jen We are now in December,
so we are eight months on nine months since the
brand has launched, and there's still no jam. Okay, no details,
no price, no link. I really need to buy that.
Jane the Instagram account is still just the logo. I went,
let's just go the website. Maybe it's been updated today
(29:01):
and I've missed it. So I just went to the website.
It takes me to American Riviera Orchard Montesito, and the
only thing I can do is sign up to the
wait list and they gonna be real. Meghan, my interest
in gem is a waning to say. Also, Babe, while
you're perfecting your jam, working out your jam, procrastinating your jam,
(29:21):
Ballerida Farm is selling that jam. She is, And say
what you like about the wanker experience they played it
to deliver it. You know, was it imperfect? Don't let
done be the enemy of perfection something, don't don't let
perfection be the enemy of good. Don't just do it,
(29:45):
just do the jam. Apparently, what's happened is there is
an issue with the trademark in that American Reviera is
a place, and you can't trademarket place. And there's an
issue with the fone. That's just something you could have
worked out before you announced it. Anyway, speaking of well,
you know who's the anti think twice wall twice cut once. Yeah,
you know whose anti measure twice cute. See all Megan
(30:07):
does is measure. Who's a measure? All this person does
his cut, and that is Jojo c Wa, who became
the self proclaimed CEO of gay pop. This has been
the year of Jojo see wat as solely fueled by
Jojo herself. On January one, she's like, this will be
the year of Jojo c Wat. No one got on board,
but she could committed to her for her, She's like
(30:30):
been a great year. She released her debut single as
a grown up artist, Karma. Not only is the song appalling,
the film clip is really weird, but it's not got
on the ankles. It's very stumpy, stopping the dance. Promoting
the single, she said in an interview with Billboard, I
want to start a new genre of music. It's called
(30:50):
gay pop, and that upset people a lot because they're like,
gay pop's been around a very long time. Then she
went on call her daddy. She wore a ridiculous hat
and she just hasn't left. She's just constantly I'm launching,
I'm launching, I'm on TikTok o. She's in oz. Yeah,
she's just been in Australia. I'm visited swear all her
fans are. I was somewhere drinks with a few friends
(31:12):
the other night and they were going to an event afterwards,
and they were like, legend has it JoJo's gonna be there,
no doubt. And it was a local event, I have
no doubt. And then they were like, no, as if
Jojo would go there, and I was like, that's the
sort of thing where we're meeting friends this hour. Yeah,
Jojo cobayla. If she's still in the country, she's there.
If Jojo was there, I'd be like, name a place
Jojo isn't. Well. Do you also remember on TikTok she
(31:38):
thanked Beyonce at the award show. Yeah, and then everyone
was like, JoJo's missing after she thanked Beyonce because she
nodded to that conspiracy theory. I'm like, down the road,
she's not missing. She's still posting Jesse. These are two
just little descriptions of JoJo's energy. In twenty twenty four, Okay,
I once read a post that said Jojo Siwa is
(31:59):
an amalgam of every character Melissa McCarthy has ever played,
which is very She's very slapstick, she's very silly. Yeah,
I predict my god, No, this is the best I've
ever read in my whole life. You know, ins and
outs for twenty twenty five. This is the top of
my inn y Jojo Siwa will join the WWE. I
(32:20):
can see it. She was made for w She's a performer,
and she'll be a heel, because there's a hero and
a heel. The heel is the villain that everyone hates
and waits for for like whul Cogan to you know,
go yeah, yeah, yeah, And she'll be wearing leather and
she'll be dancing to Karma and yeah, and everyone'll be
like boo. She'd be like, I love this Jesse. Baby
(32:45):
Reindeer and the Peters Morgan Interview. One of the biggest
shows of the year was Baby Reindeer, a British black
comedy drama thriller TV mini series that's too many to
describe things where, but it was created by and starred
Richard Gadd. It was adapted from his autobiographical one man
(33:09):
show It Wants Six Emmys, and it follows Donnie, a
very unfunny comedian who's trying to make it and his
experience being stalked by Martha. It's a brilliant show. But
plot wise, Donnie eventually reports Martha to the police for stalking, violence,
and threatening his parents, and she's arrested and she serves
nine months in prison. The problem is, as mentioned, it's
(33:33):
based on a true story. I didn't say based it
said this is a true story. Didn't say based. Yeah,
And I think that's where they got in trouble. Yeah,
And it seems Richard is a creative genius. But and
this is a wild allegation. I think he's a lazy boy,
lazy boy, boy boy boy. I don't think he's a
lazy boy. Think maybe Netflix is no, no, no, no, because
I feel like I understand what happened is he wrote
(33:55):
this meant to change, and he meant he had like
he had things underlined. He had like you know on
word where you've highlighted something left to comment. He said
change in capital must must must change. He's just getting
into that now. The thing he had time to change
was the name from Fiona to Martha. Not a great change,
(34:17):
but he definitely meant to change things he didn't change,
which I get. We all run out of time with
creative projects. And then he was like it's okay, No
want to watch her and then it blew up. So
the thing is that the real Martha looks a lot
like fictional Martha. When she came forward and she's like,
I'm the real Martha, Everyone's like here you are, here
you are, and real Martha is pissed. In May, Fiona
(34:40):
mer Harvey, who Martha is based on, was interviewed by
Piers Morgan on Peers Morgan Uncensored and what I get
Peers again, this is what happens when you have no morals,
you get great interviews. She's a Scottish woman with a
law degree, just like Martha, and she wants to sue
for defamation. But there's just one problem. She really highly
(35:02):
recognized herself in that show. Yeah, because she was like
that person that I'm based on isn't me, and I'm
I'm offended because all of the things are true, and
it's like, honey, get your stories, get your stories straight.
So tweets from one of her social media accounts led
fans to figure out that she was the inspiration for
Martha because they had a reference to hanging curtains, which
(35:24):
was a reference in the show like a sexually suggestive
phrase during her uncensored interview. She said she had met
Gad several times, but she did not send him forty
one thousand emails anything to him. There may have been
a couple of emails, Text messages nope, Facebook messages nope.
(35:45):
Did you tweet him? I may have done years and
years ago. You actually tweeted him numerous times. No, it
wasn't humorous. It's about eighteen tweets there or fourteen. It's
got a lot to someone who's not that well known.
She didn't I believe it, but then just as peers
just it just seemed like maybe she did. Okay, she
said she was planning to super defamation. And look, the
(36:09):
issue is, I don't know why he had that character
convicted of actual crime and sentenced to time in jail.
And that is what leads me to believe that somewhere
in his desk there is a posted note that says,
to do today must change identifying details in this story
(36:30):
or legal consequences. Consequences. It's un Yeah, yeah, forgot, but
then but then he got on TikTok and he got distruck.
But Fiona, there's been a few issues because then the
Daily Mail orangested and she's like, I love all this tension.
But then she could apparently there was some journalist interviewer,
and then she accidentally started stalking him. I did say,
(36:51):
there's a few stories that are like now she's talking
me and it's like, Fiona, this is not good evidence. No,
you are not who he says you are. Yes. The
Anne Hathaway Interview and The Idea of You. Anne Hathaway
had a moment in twenty twenty four. She did an
interview on the New York Times podcast The Interview, and
she gave away absolutely nothing. I've never listened to an
(37:14):
interview and learned nothing, not a single thing, absolutely not.
And then she even called him back to feel like,
was I evasive? I still have nothing to say, nothing
to say, cheer God, but I just want to talk
about Then she starred in the Idea of You, and
we need to do a bit of a revisiting because
(37:35):
why'd everyone dead? It was good when it was hi.
It follows Celene played by Anne Hathaway, a forty year
old single mother who becomes romantically yes with hay Is
Campbell played by Nicholas gallitzin a massively famous twenty four
year old British Boy band Paras Stars, and I saw
(37:59):
a headline that was like, the Idea of You is
so much more than just Harry Styles fan fiction. And
I'm like, oh, I really disagree with that. I think
it's simply Harry Styles fan fiction. I think it's a yeah, yeah, yeah,
I just have a few questions. Yeah, why they both
cry so much? Why is it all about her hair?
(38:20):
Very much about the hair chef fringe? Yeah, and the
way she first meets him in the trailer is just
like so unrealistic, like she's just peeing in a private trailer.
It just it all just upset me so much. One
review read, I thoroughly enjoyed watching The Idea of You,
but was it a good movie? Absolutely not. That's exactly
how I feel. Thank you for putting words around it. Yeah.
(38:43):
Speaking of things that were not good, America's Sweethearts Dallas
Cowboys Cheerleaders Loved five Stars that was released on Netflix
and everyone watched it because we were bored. Some observations.
Didn't need to be seven episodes. By the second episode,
I was like, is there some huge twist coming because
this is a lot of bite. No, Because the first
(39:04):
episode I was like, this is problematic we're treating women
like their dolls. This is objectifying. And by the second
I was like, she doesn't have it. She just doesn't
have it. She doesn't have the X factory. I feel
as though she doesn't have the look. She's no the look,
she doesn't have it. I feel like with her high kicks,
her knee isn't straight enough and in fact, she's not
(39:24):
putting her body on the line for future surgery. Yeah,
with how high she's jumping in the air, exactly, poor Victoria.
We all felt very sorry for Victoria. I don't think
she had it. No, no, do more tricks. It was
just a little note yet we have because with all
of that. And then finally we got to watch the
full ACDC Thunderstruck routine and I went, there's a lot
of fast walking, and there's a lot of whittling our
(39:46):
pomp ponds, which I can do. Yeah, I'm gonna need
more of the jump split. Yeah. If you can do
a cart well, if you can do a backflip, if
you can do a trick, you've got to be doing
a trip. Yeah. Kelly was tough but fair. I actually
really admired her. Yep, and yeah, people did try to
analyze it, and by the end I was like, hmm,
I think they're just dancing. I guess we can just
leave it. In July of this year, someone had a
(40:18):
very bad day at work. A man or a woman
was working at a company called CrowdStrike. I'd never heard
of it, and they updated a program and accidentally broke
the world. I hate when this happens. It reminds me
of the Sewers Canal when they got blocked, and I
was like, Ah, that ship got stuck. Yeah, very relatable.
Sounds like an exaggeration, but literally everything got ruined. At
(40:40):
least eight point five million systems crashed and they couldn't restart,
which is the biggest outage in the history of technology.
You couldn't pay on a card. Airport systems were down,
so they couldn't check you in for flights. Internal systems
in hospitals were impacted. We were at dinner and we
were like, Oh my god, are the planes going to
fall out of the air, which confirms that no one
(41:01):
knows how the Internet works or how planes were. No.
I was like, surely it's a Wi Fi. Yeah, surely
they run on NBN. No.
Speaker 4 (41:12):
No.
Speaker 1 (41:12):
We were like, oh no, because it looked for a
minute like it was a cyber at half, and we went, oh, no,
can we order Olbirata?
Speaker 4 (41:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (41:19):
And then when we could, we didn't worry. Yeah. And
then by the time we went to pay, the machine
was fine again. So it was okay for us, It
wasn't okay for others. Joe Biden steps back and Kamala
steps forward. So on July the twenty first, president Joe
Biden stepped down from the presidential race and nominated Kamala Harris.
This followed what Politico termed the worst debate performance in
(41:43):
American history by Biden. The terminent initiative relative to what
we're going to do with more border patrol and more
I weally don't know what he said at the end
of those I don't think he knows me he said either.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
Look, we had the safest border in the history of
our country, so all he had to do was leave.
Speaker 1 (42:03):
It's the line in the presidential debate where he goes,
we have one hundred trillionaires, wait billionaires, and if we
tack some twenty four percent or twenty five percent, we
could raise five hundred million or billion dollars. I think
that's very where Joe Biden was at and I don't
say that critically because Trump's been there or why he
lived there. He also said, making sure that we're able
(42:27):
to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've
been able to do with with the COVID, excuse me,
with dealing with everything we had to do with. Look
if we finally beat Medicare. And at that point the
convener of the debate stopped him. Ah, because even Trump
looked embarrassed. Yeah, the man out of his misery. Just
(42:48):
it's fine. There was a video where it looked like
Biden was speaking to someone who wasn't there. There was
one where I kind of stuff on stage. I love.
I love the videos. I don't know if they're real,
I don't know if they're out of context, but the
videos where he turns to with air and extends his
hand to shake, they give me a lot of joy.
So Biden was eighty one when he stepped down, and Harris,
(43:09):
who was fifth nine, began her campaign. That's when Charlie
XCX did the whole bratz brat and it looked like
we were all preparing to potentially see a woman becoming
the president of the United States for the first time. Yeah. Yeah.
We should also mention that earlier in the year there
was an assassination. Oh yeah, Bond, Donald Trump, Yeah, yep.
(43:30):
And I have to say, when I think back, it
was the moment where he had the bleeding ear, he
had his arm in the air and the American flag
was blowing in the wind behind him that I went,
I think he's got it. I think he's got it
in the back, I think he's got the election. The
Olympics started in late July, and luckily we were still
(43:51):
high off Dallas cheerleaders, so we were like, we're here
for elite athletes. Yeap, and Simon Biles was like, you
bitches want to watch me fly literally fly? Yeah yeah.
And Watrick Snoop was there. No, he was at every event.
He was front and center, and unfortunately he was in
attendance at the first breaking competition in Olympic history. No,
(44:13):
it was Saturday morning, Australia time when one of our
brothers messaged us and said, I'm gonna need you to
look up the Australian breaking because this moment is about
to go viral. And we watched that performance and went, yes, yeah,
the world is going to need to communally process. Yeah,
Australia isn't known for its breaking. If we have great breakers, respectfully,
(44:37):
don't look like Reygun. She didn't do anything that required
any skill maybe the headstand, and because of that she
did not earn a single point. No, it looked like
a seizure. People went through the seven stages of Greece.
We were sad and then we're embarrassed, and then people
got really angry. And I was like, I think Raygan
knows it wasn't good. No, no, let the woman live
(45:00):
Adele couldn't get through her concert without bringing up and
we talk a theme of this podcast, lady girls, she's
a lazy girl patron sa. I think Raygun was like,
oh my god, I'm going to the Olympics for breaking.
I better work really and then she got distracted and
then she turned out and I was like, uh, oh, kangaroo.
(45:21):
And I think who among us hasn't thought I'm gonna
do something really hard? But you know what, I think
I'm gonna wing it, and I think it's gonna go
really really well. Actually, I think sometimes i'm the lies
we tell ourselves. I'm got under pressure. Yeah, yeah, I'm
better the less I prepare. Yah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You can over prepare, and I think the others have
over prepared. You can overwork a breaking life. I've got
(45:41):
to be really in the moment and just react to
what's in front of me. I've got to like absorb
the energy of the crowd. I also think maybe she
put on that outfit provided by the Australian Olympic team
and she went, there isn't a way to make this
routine look good while I'm wearing this outfit. Yeah, I
don't think the hat had to stay on. It didn't
(46:02):
because you don't need some protection when you're on your head.
Some of my favorite reactions were pictures of ray Gun
and it said what my nephew does after telling us
to watch this and she's simply laying sideways on the ground.
The possum in my backyard when it sees my dog
and it's doing a little bit of a kick. And
also when we said every Olympic event should include one
(46:22):
average person for a reference, it was meant to be
a joke, but then we got a ray Gum. I
didn't get on one point, No darling. Then the internet
turned on Blake Lively in August. It ends with Us
as released, and it's based on the best selling book
of the same name by Colleen Hoover. Tells the story
of Lily Bloom played by Blake Lively, and she escapes
(46:44):
a rough childhood and meets her seemingly dream guy, Ryle Kingkate.
Ryle is played by Justin Baldoni, who was very much
in the zeitgeis for a hot minute, but Blake Lively
got in lots of trouble because in an Instagram video
promoting the movie, which again heavily features domestic violence, she said,
(47:05):
it ends with us as in theaters now, so grab
your friends, were your florals and head out to see it.
People thought this was tone deaf. She was very like, yay,
we're pink. Then there was an interview where she was
asked a terrible question, very badly worded, confusing question about
if people come up to you on the street, how
do you want them to tell you about their experiences
(47:27):
or something very odd, and she said like asking for
my address or my phone number? Location share? I can
location share you? Oh, Blake? Wrong? Tone right, wrong? Don't
She seemed to be using the publicity around the movie
to also promote her other businesses, her hair care yeah,
and also her cocktail Yes. Then, of course, an interview
(47:50):
was unearthed from twenty sixteen by Norwegian journalist Kirsty Fluff,
and the interview opened with flu congratulating Lively on her
little bump because she was pregnant. First of all, congrats
on your little bump. Congrats on your little bump. And
then she got offended about a very benign question about
costs gyms. But then, and this is what always happens,
(48:12):
everybody went, oh my gosh, poor journalist bullied by Blake Lively.
Blake Lively is a witch. Cast her out, cast her out.
But then Kirsty Flower shared another uncomfortable interview with Anne Hathaway,
and it was a bit like, babe, keep doing this, Babe.
I'd leave at a friend who every workplace she just
(48:33):
goes every workplace I go, they don't respect me. And
it's like, mate, I thank you shitty. Your job among
us hasn't sat around a table and gone shit, you're
the one everyone hates at work during competent like she
was upset because she asked Anne Hathaway to answer questions
in song, and Anne Hathaway laughed and basically said, I
(48:54):
shan't be doing that, and it's like what self respect
actually applauding Anne Moodng, moving on to Mown Moodang, a
baby pygmy hippo, went viral in September of this year
after being born in July in Thailand. Moodang obviously translates
to mean bouncy pig or bouncy pork. MoU is the
(49:15):
youngest of seven and his joys include playing with water,
doing roly polys, and food. Damn it, it's a she.
She has been described as the Girl of twenty twenty four.
So why so popular? Well, Moodng is apparently more playful
and energetic than other hippopotamuses. She also has lovely rosy cheeks,
(49:37):
but capitalism inevitably ruins everything. There's merch, there's a Moodden cryptocurrency.
You can get mood Den Christmas cards and Mooden calendars.
Influencers were like his how to get Mujang's look? Come on,
and it's like speaking of unrealistic beauty standards. Now I'm
expected to lure like a dewy pygmy hippone. Do you
want to know how to get Moodang's look okay, because
(49:58):
it's like a gray eyes shadow look. Oh and a
really lovely blush. Is it pretty? It's fine? Yeah? Okay.
Then in November, the Zoo posted a video of Moodang
choosing between two fruit dishes feature the names Donald Trump
and Kamala Harris to see who her election prediction was.
Do you remember this? Oh, I missed. I totally missed this.
(50:18):
I know. I thought, ah, this is when we hit
rock box. Hey, we don't know what's gonna happen, Moodang.
Do you By the way, everyone's making money off my
name and my enclosure stayed exactly the same. I don't
wear clothes and I have no bank account, so please
(50:40):
explain to me where the Moodan cryptocurrency? Fuck you? And
then Moodang walked over. I ate the fruit platter of
Donald Trump and got it more right than every bolster. Well,
I just I was thinking earlier this year. I thought
what would I do if I had unlimited funds? And
I thought I'd fly to Thailand. I'd see Moodang. No,
apparently you can only see Mudang for five minutes at
(51:01):
a time now because people throw things at people are
the worst people are horrible. Well, I would go there
and I would help because I have unlimited fund. Yeah,
I would actually help Moudan move into a better enclosure.
And I help her to trademarkt Yeah, like get on
the phone to Megan. Yeah, I'd say trademark before making
your instgra or whatever. But yes, trademark Moodan, you need
(51:22):
some business advice, ye, Jesse chapel Ron can't come to work.
Chapel Rone is twenty six, and she's a singer songwriter
who is hugely popular with jen Z and just generally
cool people. In October, she canceled a pair of festival
performances in New York and Maryland, saying that she needs
to take care of herself because she was struggling to
(51:42):
manage expectations and harassment and privacy concerns. She's talked a
lot about struggling with fame. She's posted all these TikTok
videos kind of criticizing people for approaching her in public
and saying it's weird and just because she's famous doesn't
mean she's not entitled to get a photo with me. Yes,
for some fans, they're a bit like, well, I bought
(52:03):
tickets to go and see you in New York and
I can't get a refund on my flights, And then
other people are like, well, mental health very important. All
I have to say is lazy girl, hard related lazy.
She's a lazy girl. You looked at your calendar and
you went, I don't want to do it. I thought
I wanted to be famous. Yes, I thought I want
And it's more work than I anticipated energetically, and also
(52:27):
have enough money. Now, yeah, it's all good. I'll just
take my money. It's like gambling. I'll just check out.
She could also probably at this point just have a
career as a TikToker who posts about how annoying it
is to be famous. Fine, like you don't have to
release any more music or perform. Actually it's fine, just
get brand deals about like being lazy. Yeah, Jesse, nobody
(52:48):
wants this. Everyone was watching Nobody Wants This in like
September October, starring Adam Brody and Kristen Bell, the show
about a sex podcaster and a newly single rabbi falling
in love. We all became sickeningly obsessed with Adam Brody Jesse.
Here were some of the best reactions Adam Brody's is
(53:09):
in this show is off the charts. It's like Seth
Cohen grew a beard and realized how fine he was
and sent an entire generation of OC girls into heat.
That's exactly what happened. Adam Brady is a perfect romance
lead and we have severely underutilized that in the last
ten to fifteen years. That's what everyone realized was like,
why did it take us this long? Why has he
only had fleeting parts? Yeah, yeah, he's a leading man.
(53:30):
There are celeb crushes, and then there's whatever the hell
I feel about Adam Brady. It is deeper because we
knew him as a kid. Yeah, not a kid, yeah, adult,
We've grown up with him. We then move into November.
It's a lead up to Schoolies and Australia has a
new tradition where sex workers from only fans keep yelling
that they're going to have sex with your sons on
camera and then everyone says no, please don't, and mothers squeal,
(53:53):
mother's squeal, They clutch their pearls. They say not my
not my little boy. He's only a child, yeah, and
then they say no, he's not try and stop us,
and then the sex worker says, there's a line of
them at my door and they're like, not my son,
and it's like I think maybe, I think maybe one
could be your son. The story is repetitive, he's bizarre, yes,
(54:15):
and it is mesmerizing because you got it's like a
game off ping pong, because the only Fans starts go,
I'm gonna make them have sex on camera, yeah, and
post it to my only fans and make money and
not pay them, and then the mothers are like, don't
do that. And then you know that they're going to
go back, and then they're going to go, that's not legal,
(54:35):
and then they're going to go back and go it
is legal, and yeah, it's just a really well it's
not ethical, and they'll say, I don't give a shit
about ethics. That's what's going wrong. So Bunny Blue and
Annie Knight, who say they've made a fortune from posting
content on only Fans, announced in November that they'd be
targeting barely legal boys for their content. I saw that
they went to Fiji. Did you see that they were
(54:56):
pursued by local authorities and some would say chased out
of the country. They didn't get to meet any of
the boys. Was the publicity worth it? Because yes, okay,
the publicity was great for them. I saw it and
I was like, excellent, your only fans go, your TikTok
going off. You are going to make bank. However, being
publicly pursued by authorities quite stressful, the rage baiting of
(55:20):
the whole thing. And you can seit in her eyes
when she's just like, I'm going to say something fused
and watch my bank account grow up, and it's like,
you know who you shouldn't cross? Boy moms, boy moms,
because boy moms, yeah, have some protecting to do. Yeah,
and probably the boy mums are running the AFP and
the Australian Federal Police are in VIGI. Yeah. And guests
(55:41):
who canceled your visa, Bonnie Blue? Yeah, a boy mum,
because all these people were like, hold on, if you're
here just on holiday, you can't be making money, Bonnie Blue.
Then they were like, we've canceled speaking of law? Yeah,
is that a reference to this being a courtroom? No,
speaking of the law and them saying that they are
(56:03):
not breaking the law. Oh. Yeah, you just know that
there are a lot of lawyers going I'm gonna find
I'm going to get thing. Yeah, I'm gonna get you.
And so yeah, no, we did throw everyone into a
bit of a tizzy, didn't it. I wonder what's happening? Schoolies?
Has just happened? Why should have Bonnie Blue can't even
be here. I wonder if any night she's on the prow.
(56:26):
I think she's on the prow. We now find ourselves
in December and we have Wicked. And if you're not
taking the lyrics of defying gravity and really holding space
with that and feeling power in that, then what are
you doing? What are you doing? Jess? It's a weird
end of the year because it's like very earnest and
very I don't know the fact that we're all going
into a cinema and watching a movie about a green
(56:48):
witch and sobbing. Does that say something about how broken
we are as a species. I think we'd all rather
be in Oz. Yeah what munchkin Land. People are reading
into it about you know, the Wizard of Oz being
a bit like Donald Trump, and it's like, yeah, I
don't know. I think we're just things aren't good. I
think we should before we go. I think that we
(57:09):
should choose our lazy because we have a few contenders.
Oh wow, Yeah, we have ray Gun hit in prep. Yeah,
Chapel Roan, we have Megan Markel. They launched with no
follow through. Yeah yeah, she did send out fifty jars
of jam, but only I think four people posted. Yeah,
that's not a good hit rate. At least forty jar
of jam and didn't even post to their grid and
(57:30):
it was a lazy plan. Yeah, yeah, I'm going to
go Meghan. I'm going to go Meghan. I think that
we're launching our brands. We're trying to cultivate a bit
of momentum. We're hiring teams and we're losing teams allegedly,
and I still don't have a salad bowl a tablecloth.
How about a jar of mal Malay brand. I have
(57:53):
some people in my life. Yeah, that would be the
funniest PAS present.
Speaker 4 (57:57):
Would you like?
Speaker 1 (57:58):
Meghan Markle Serbia Okay, my lazy girl of the er yep,
I've got two? Okay one the team behind the Wonker
Experience it was one man. And when you say the team,
I think who you're referring to as chat GPT. Okay, yes,
very lazy, but actually that's my runner up Number one.
(58:23):
Mood Deang. I think moodg is the laziest hippo. Yeah,
because she wanders in her enclosure, yes, and falls up
with look and fresh looking, and everyone's like, I want
to do my makeup like Moodang. I want to be
like Moudang. I want Moodang on my hat. And Moodang's like,
(58:43):
you want me to eat a fruit bowl to pick
the election. Fine, I'm not going to do it efficiently,
but I'll do it and I'll pick it right. And
I just think Moodang is a lazy girl for the ages.
I love it. I love it. Thank you so much
