[0:27] Allison Todge: Okay.

[0:35] Andrew McGuire: So, um, hi. Imagine if we started every episode like that.

[0:39] Allison Todge: I really think that like I guess I uh uh I'll name a name. Recovering Gleek does do that. Like they're like, hey, like we're recovering Gleek. They introduce themselves every episode.

[0:50] Andrew McGuire: I do fear that like if people like were to listen to like a random episode of our podcast, like they would just be like, oh god, what is going on? You know who are the who the fuck are these people?

[1:01] Allison Todge: Yeah.

[1:02] Andrew McGuire: So like and what are they doing?

[1:05] Allison Todge: I kind of like that though, because you have to keep listening to find out.

[1:09] Andrew McGuire: So eventually they get through seven episodes. I don't want to feel like exclusive. I don't want to feel exclusive. I don't want to give them homework.

[1:16] Allison Todge: No, it's at the top of this description of the podcast.

[1:19] Andrew McGuire: That is so true. That is really like hey, here's what we're doing. Yeah. Here's what we do every episode. Come on in. The party's coming. Come on in. Make yourself glumforble.

[1:27] Allison Todge: Um make yourself a glow.

[1:32] Andrew McGuire: Um, we asked on the Glinsty Graham, the social gleedious team. Um, hey, what should we talk about? And there were some really fun conversations. We said we should talk about Glee.

[1:43] Allison Todge: Someone I think that's a good idea.

[1:46] Andrew McGuire: I really think that's a good idea.

[1:47] Allison Todge: I don't think it's a good one. I'm gonna nip it in the butt right now. I don't want to. I am I am not sure. I don't want to talk about Glee.

[1:53] Andrew McGuire: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, not tonight. No, no, no, no, no, no.

[1:57] Allison Todge: I don't usually get on my soapbox on my Instagram story, but I just want to say stop asking us to talk about Glee.

[2:03] Andrew McGuire: We won't.

[2:05] Allison Todge: We won't. We're done.

[2:05] Andrew McGuire: We won't ever.

[2:06] Allison Todge: Um wait, but someone did want to know.

[2:10] Andrew McGuire: Okay, what which one do you want to start with?

[2:13] Allison Todge: I sent you like some some really good questions.

[2:16] Andrew McGuire: Or I said, You did. I'm just gonna triple check that my iPad didn't like send an email to somebody because it's giving me anxiety.

[2:24] Allison Todge: Okay.

[2:25] Andrew McGuire: I was telling a not what was that noise?

[2:29] Allison Todge: I didn't hear anything.

[2:30] Andrew McGuire: I did. Is that my iPad opening? Is that my iPad opening? Is that my iPad opening? How do I open like notifications on my iPad?

[2:41] Allison Todge: Oh, I got an email that Allison Todge has joined your meeting.

[2:45] Andrew McGuire: Oh, I'm on Do Not Disturb.

[2:47] Allison Todge: Okay, good. Never mind. Uh that stresses me out. I have such bad paranoia that all of my things are recording me and sending them to all of my worst enemies.

[2:56] Andrew McGuire: Number one, Rachel Berry.

[2:58] Allison Todge: Okay, bringing it back to Glee.

[3:00] Andrew McGuire: Okay, bringing it back to Glee. Finally. Um, okay. Which one do you want to talk about first?

[3:07] Allison Todge: I asked you that.

[3:08] Andrew McGuire: Oh, you did. Um I really liked what was it, Era's tour as Glee characters.

[3:16] Allison Todge: As Glee characters. I did some homework with this one, and my mind was all over the place. I want you to start the discourse on this.

[3:25] Andrew McGuire: Well, I'm wondering what the real question is. Like, am I saying, oh, the Arizona tour dates are Quinn. The Las Vegas tour dates are RHL.

[3:36] Allison Todge: No, I I understood it as like, okay, so I looked up me, disclaimer, I think you already know this. Not a really big Swifty.

[3:44] Andrew McGuire: No, you're not a big Swifty.

[3:45] Allison Todge: I am. Yeah, I'm casual. Like I know that I I looked at the set list and I'm like, I know I feel 75% of these songs. Maybe 80. 80% of these songs. I know.

[3:56] Andrew McGuire: From the set list?

[3:57] Allison Todge: From the set list. And then I like broke it down because I couldn't find anybody online that like broke it down by album. And so I needed to do the homework myself.

[4:06] Andrew McGuire: I just clicked on the first three like links when I saw like the set list, but like no one broke it down. It was just like straight shot, like here are all the songs. And I wanted to break it down by album.

[4:18] Allison Todge: And so like the first six songs were Lover, then the next three songs are Fearless, the next five songs are Evermore. Um, and so then Reputation Speak Now, red folklore, 1989, folklore, one song from that, one song from Taylor Swift, and then the last songs were well. It depends because there's two secret songs. Every tour date has two secret songs that she's gonna play once, and she's never playing it again on the tour.

[4:45] Andrew McGuire: Oh, okay.

[4:46] Allison Todge: So it really depends. Right now, we're not talking about that though.

[4:49] Andrew McGuire: We're not talking about oh, okay, okay. We're we're talking about the glee of it all.

[4:52] Allison Todge: We're talking about the glee of it all. And so then I was like, okay, so there are 10 albums. And I was like, okay, there are 10. Can I do 10 Glee characters? This is what my mind does. I think the worst possible thing to do with the information.

[5:05] Andrew McGuire: Um I was like, 10 Glee Girls. Would I assign each girl, like Rachel Tina, Mercedes Quinn, Brittany Santana Marley, Kitty Unique and Sugar to each album? I'm like, is that fun?

[5:15] Allison Todge: Did you do that?

[5:17] Andrew McGuire: No. Um, I was like, I thought about it. Because I was like, if you did it and I would react to it as somebody who deeply knows the material.

[5:25] Allison Todge: Okay, so if I And you are somebody who deeply knows the Glee material.

[5:29] Andrew McGuire: Okay. Well, we both know the Glee material.

[5:32] Allison Todge: We do both know the Glee. And we both know the Taylor Swift material. I just know it deeper, and you know the other thing deeper.

[5:38] Andrew McGuire: The other thing being the fucking thing we base this podcast around.

[5:41] Allison Todge: We talk a lot about on this podcast.

[5:44] Andrew McGuire: Too much, honestly. Um, so like, okay, you want to go in let's go in order. Taylor Swift Lover.

[5:50] Allison Todge: Oh.

[5:51] Andrew McGuire: Oh, oh, okay. Okay, well, chronological order.

[5:54] Allison Todge: Wow, we're on two different wavelengths.

[5:56] Andrew McGuire: Which one? Which one do you want to start with?

[5:58] Allison Todge: Let's do chronological order.

[6:00] Andrew McGuire: Chronological order. Debut, Taylor Swift.

[6:04] Allison Todge: That's like as a character. And we're doing the all ten Glee girls.

[6:09] Andrew McGuire: Ten Glee girlies. Wait, give me the Glee girlies again.

[6:12] Allison Todge: Rachel Tina Mercedes.

[6:14] Andrew McGuire: Oh my god, stop. Rachel.

[6:18] Allison Todge: Tina Mercedes Jones.

[6:22] Andrew McGuire: Uh-huh.

[6:23] Allison Todge: Quinn. Quinn Brittany Santana.

[6:26] Andrew McGuire: Britt Santana.

[6:30] Allison Todge: Marley. Marley Kitty Unique and Sugar.

[6:33] Andrew McGuire: I didn't include any of like I didn't include Lauren or the season six girlies, but.

[6:38] Allison Todge: Sugar.

[6:38] Andrew McGuire: Okay. Uh yeah, let's uh let's go for it. So I think what the first one is like the vibe of Taylor Swift is from my recollection. Like Country Girl, I love you. Country Boy, I love you.

[6:52] Allison Todge: Country boy, I love you. It's very angsty. It's like I hope I hope the girl that ends up with Drew knows how much I love him. Like just so deep in her teen angst that she is drowning.

[7:09] Andrew McGuire: Is it too early to give it to Marley?

[7:11] Allison Todge: No, because I'm saying Marley too.

[7:13] Andrew McGuire: It's Marley.

[7:14] Allison Todge: Okay. Marley, congratulations. You're on the Eras tour.

[7:18] Andrew McGuire: Um, then the next one. You get to sing. They literally have only sang two songs so far. There's been four tour dates, and they've sang two debut songs so far.

[7:30] Allison Todge: There's no debut songs permanently on the set list. God, Marley, it's not. Teardrops on my guitar, our song.

[7:37] Andrew McGuire: That is so Marley coded.

[7:39] Allison Todge: Not permanently, but they are Marley coated. The next one is I hope you think of me. Fearless.

[7:47] Andrew McGuire: Fearless.

[7:48] Allison Todge: Fearless.

[7:49] Andrew McGuire: Yeah. Fearless.

[7:51] Allison Todge: The vibe of that is kind of like just like the Pokemon evolution of Taylor Swift, right?

[7:58] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, like, hey, go fuck yourself, Joe Jonas.

[8:01] Allison Todge: Oh, okay. So, like a little bit angry. I think the angrier version, not angrier, but just like the evolved version of Marley is Mercedes.

[8:10] Andrew McGuire: Oh, that's wrong.

[8:11] Allison Todge: Is that is that really wrong?

[8:14] Andrew McGuire: Not really, but I am gonna say that it's Tina.

[8:17] Allison Todge: Oh, okay. Okay, yeah, I was definitely wrong. I don't know who said that then. Who was that?

[8:25] Andrew McGuire: Because I think Tina still has that, like she falls in love with Blaine, of all people. And she does also get very angsty. Fearless is like, because when you're 15. Somebody tells you they love you. You're gonna be able to do it. That that's Tina Cohen Chang.

[8:48] Allison Todge: Right, right, right, right. And then what do we have? Right, right.

[8:52] Andrew McGuire: Well, I think that like loving him was red.

[8:57] Allison Todge: Red is the character Santana, but I don't know if that really is the album for Santana.

[9:04] Andrew McGuire: Yes. I agree with that, but I don't think I would give Red to Santana.

[9:09] Allison Todge: So red is gonna be um So the songs from Red on Eras Tour 22. We are never getting back together like ever. Um I knew I knew you were trouble in all too well.

[9:21] Andrew McGuire: Ooh.

[9:23] Allison Todge: Um I I would can we say it at the same time. I think I have I think I have it. I don't think we're gonna have the same one. Three, two, one.

[9:34] Andrew McGuire: Kitty.

[9:36] Allison Todge: Kitty was my second choice. Who do we want to land on? Because I see Brittany wearing the I'm feeling 22 outfit.

[9:45] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[9:45] Allison Todge: The like black hat, white t-shirt. I see her. I think.

[9:53] Andrew McGuire: Wait, no, kitty would be good on this album, actually.

[9:55] Allison Todge: I think it would be Kitty. Wait. What? We missed um Speak Now.

[9:59] Andrew McGuire: Speak Now.

[10:03] Allison Todge: That was on you.

[10:04] Andrew McGuire: That was on me.

[10:05] Allison Todge: That was on me.

[10:06] Andrew McGuire: I'm Bad Band, Bad Band. Um Enchanted, the only one. I was enchanted to meet.

[10:14] Allison Todge: I don't think I know this girl.

[10:17] Andrew McGuire: I don't know anything about Speak Now.

[10:19] Allison Todge: Be in love with someone else. Um is Speak Now Okay, let's give Kitty red.

[10:27] Andrew McGuire: Okay. Kitty is red. You're right. Because I can see Kitty see singing begin again. I can see Kitty singing.

[10:34] Allison Todge: We are never ever.

[10:37] Andrew McGuire: Yeah. But I think Speak Now is Rachel Berry.

[10:42] Allison Todge: Wait, Speak Now. Is that mean and mine?

[10:45] Andrew McGuire: Yes.

[10:46] Allison Todge: Mean, mine, uh.

[10:49] Andrew McGuire: And ours.

[10:52] Allison Todge: So we we could get that to Santa.

[10:54] Andrew McGuire: No, I know what Santana is. Speak Now.

[10:58] Allison Todge: What? Like, what's can you can you give me some images?

[11:01] Andrew McGuire: Uh see it all now. The chugging. Symbols.

[11:05] Allison Todge: I need symbols like attached to this elf. Sparkly.

[11:10] Andrew McGuire: A girl interrupting a wedding because she deserves the man more. Owl City.

[11:18] Allison Todge: Unique?

[11:19] Andrew McGuire: Sure. Yeah. No, that's good. Okay. Unique is purple coated to me.

[11:25] Allison Todge: Yeah.

[11:26] Andrew McGuire: I would agree with that. I can see Unique singing. What can I see? Sparks fly.

[11:34] Allison Todge: Oh, baby smile.

[11:36] Andrew McGuire: Yeah. I'm singing so much on this podcast. And it's because I just love Taylor Swift.

[11:42] Allison Todge: She's got a great middle name.

[11:44] Andrew McGuire: When you say that, I think that you're making that up, but that that is factually her middle name.

[11:44] Allison Todge: Factually, her middle name is Allison. It's only one L, so it's like spelled wrong, but you're doubly L.

[11:55] Andrew McGuire: I'm double L. Wait, so what's after? So after we did red.

[12:00] Allison Todge: What's up? Taylor Swift. See you. 1999.

[12:04] Andrew McGuire: Speak now Ed.

[12:07] Allison Todge: I was born in 1989.

[12:09] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, 1989. Sorry, I have to go through the TikTok audience.

[12:14] Allison Todge: Wait, have you ever seen the one that's like liver? Like I was trying to explain that the other day to Elias.

[12:21] Andrew McGuire: What's the other ones that they say?

[12:23] Allison Todge: I only know liver.

[12:25] Andrew McGuire: I only know liver too, because that just sticks out in my mind.

[12:28] Allison Todge: We'll have to look it up later. Um 1989. 1989 is Brittany.

[12:34] Andrew McGuire: Because it's shake it off, shake it off.

[12:37] Allison Todge: Yeah, style. But like, how about like welcome to New York? I guess that's still like Brittany coated. Because it's like boys and boys and girls and girls talking about gay.

[12:48] Andrew McGuire: Gay, talking about gay, singing about gay.

[12:48] Allison Todge: Singing about gay.

[12:52] Andrew McGuire: So 1989, Brittany.

[12:54] Allison Todge: I would agree. I again don't know much, but I I know I know the vibes.

[12:59] Andrew McGuire: Um absolutely the woods yet. Are we out of the woods yet? Are we out of the woods yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet? Are we in the clear yet in the clear yet?

[13:09] Allison Todge: Good. We have so we have so many more. How many more?

[13:13] Andrew McGuire: We're halfway through.

[13:14] Allison Todge: Okay. Um, and then reputation.

[13:16] Andrew McGuire: Reputation.

[13:17] Allison Todge: That's Santana.

[13:18] Andrew McGuire: That's Santana. But uh, does that feel does that feel aggressive? Does that feel like we're not we're actually looking at Santana as just like an image, is not like a three-dimensional person.

[13:29] Allison Todge: No, Santana literally is the meanest person on the show.

[13:33] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, but like we have to understand that these characters have layers, and so like is it really yes, but there's also so reputation is very badass, but there's also delicate, there's also New Year's Eve, there's also don't blame me, my love made me crazy. That's not how the words go.

[13:51] Allison Todge: Okay, so that's there's a soft side to it.

[13:55] Andrew McGuire: Okay, okay, okay.

[13:56] Allison Todge: Oh, wait, we still have like Quinn left.

[13:59] Andrew McGuire: So, what's after reputation?

[14:01] Allison Todge: Reputation, then it's lover.

[14:02] Andrew McGuire: Lover.

[14:03] Allison Todge: Which is Sugar Mata.

[14:05] Andrew McGuire: Oh, because that's big, like Valentine's Day, yeah, big Valentine's Day.

[14:09] Allison Todge: Like, I think he knows.

[14:11] Andrew McGuire: Um Cornelius Street.

[14:15] Allison Todge: You need to calm down.

[14:17] Andrew McGuire: That's so shitty.

[14:19] Allison Todge: Oh my god. I've I am in my lover era right now.

[14:22] Andrew McGuire: And what else is on that?

[14:24] Allison Todge: Paper rings?

[14:30] Andrew McGuire: Sugarcoat.

[14:31] Allison Todge: That's so good.

[14:33] Andrew McGuire: Um, wait, so after lover is folklore.

[14:38] Allison Todge: So I think I could see Quinn in the woods.

[14:42] Andrew McGuire: Casually.

[14:43] Allison Todge: Just like singing.

[14:44] Andrew McGuire: She wants to be there.

[14:46] Allison Todge: Yeah, singing August, singing Mirror Ball.

[14:48] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, that's Quinn.

[14:49] Allison Todge: I love an invisible string as well.

[14:51] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[14:53] Allison Todge: My tears ricochet.

[14:55] Andrew McGuire: Betty.

[14:56] Allison Todge: Oh god. That's like so Faberry.

[14:58] Andrew McGuire: Yes?

[14:59] Allison Todge: That is Faberry because Rachel is Evermore.

[15:03] Andrew McGuire: Fuck.

[15:04] Allison Todge: The sister albums.

[15:06] Andrew McGuire: Rachel and Quinn are the sister albums folklore and evermore.

[15:09] Allison Todge: And so that for sure.

[15:10] Andrew McGuire: Midnight's is Mercedes.

[15:12] Allison Todge: Midnight's is Mercedes.

[15:13] Andrew McGuire: Oh, for sure. She's bejeweled. She's Karma.

[15:15] Allison Todge: Okay.

[15:17] Andrew McGuire: But she's also sort of would have should have. Like she's got she's got some some sadness to her.

[15:25] Allison Todge: But she's also got Karma is a cat.

[15:28] Andrew McGuire: Karma.

[15:29] Allison Todge: I don't know. I don't know if I could like I I need to listen to the songs from Midnight's through the Mercedes lens.

[15:37] Andrew McGuire: Do you want me to sing them for you and you can imagine Mercedes?

[15:41] Allison Todge: Okay, so the first one is lavender has and then it's it's me.

[15:48] Andrew McGuire: Hi, that's not Mercedes.

[15:52] Allison Todge: No, that's that's Slachel Berry.

[15:54] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, yeah.

[15:54] Allison Todge: I know, but I think I think the overall vibe of the album is Merce Ladies.

[16:01] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[16:01] Allison Todge: Of all of the albums that Taylor Swift has, I think Midnight's is the most.

[16:06] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[16:07] Allison Todge: Okay. I'll have to listen through the Merce Ladies lens.

[16:13] Andrew McGuire: You're on your own, kid.

[16:14] Allison Todge: You always have been.

[16:15] Andrew McGuire: I don't know if I could see Mercedes saying that.

[16:19] Allison Todge: I don't even know if like she would say the karma is my boyfriend. Karma is a cat.

[16:24] Andrew McGuire: She said they tried to take away my tots. I said hell to them.

[16:28] Allison Todge: That's so different.

[16:29] Andrew McGuire: That is so different from Karma is my boyfriend.

[16:32] Allison Todge: Because like her, she would be like, I don't need karma.

[16:35] Andrew McGuire: Like karma. Aren't you envious that for you it's not?

[16:39] Allison Todge: Wait, that seems like a riddle.

[16:41] Andrew McGuire: No, that those are the words. Karma is my boyfriend, karma is a god, karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekend, karma is a guy.

[16:49] Allison Todge: Wait.

[16:50] Andrew McGuire: And then it's like, aren't you envious that for you it's not?

[16:54] Allison Todge: Uh interesting. I I want the Gleek Swifties to to weigh in here with truthfully, Taylor Swift doesn't have a Mercedes album.

[17:04] Andrew McGuire: Mercedes is not a Taylor Swift girl.

[17:07] Allison Todge: Okay.

[17:08] Andrew McGuire: But of all of all ten Taylor albums, Midnight's is the most Mercedes, is what I'm saying.

[17:14] Allison Todge: Okay.

[17:15] Andrew McGuire: Um what other That was a fun conversation.

[17:19] Allison Todge: I really like that. I am obsessed with the Eras tour right now.

[17:23] Andrew McGuire: Um I really want to go. I think my mom and I are just gonna put on our outfits and show up at US Bank Stadium both nights and like let tickets fall into our hands.

[17:35] Allison Todge: Why don't you call why don't you just call Taylor up?

[17:37] Andrew McGuire: Why don't you just call Taylor up? She is doing the secret songs like I told you. And if um if Mean or Mine is one of the secret songs, I will scream.

[17:48] Allison Todge: They did sing that on Glee. And I will scream that. I will say they have these cute little things that they do, Swifties, during songs that um I think it's during Delicate, where people go, one, two, three, let's go, bitch.

[18:05] Andrew McGuire: Like they scream things in between lyrics at Taylor Swift, and Taylor Swift loves it.

[18:11] Allison Todge: Yeah. It's awesome. It's really fun. I can see why Diana Agrund fell in love with her.

[18:19] Andrew McGuire: I I don't know. I saw the Swifty videos. I saw the Ares tour. I'm like, she has some bops. I understand. Like she's. I'm not why don't I wanna, I don't want to go into this hole.

[18:31] Allison Todge: All I want to say is that I don't think that she's that great of a performer from the videos that I've seen.

[18:35] Andrew McGuire: I don't think really you don't think so?

[18:37] Allison Todge: I don't I think she I am saying this not as like hate on this entire phantom, obviously.

[18:46] Andrew McGuire: Um, but I'm just like help me understand the um, I guess, like this your girl, like this is like I understand like the songs are there, but like she's corny.

[18:58] Allison Todge: She's corny. We is corny, she's chewgy, she's millennial, she's just saw a pupper and a doggo this morning. She's don't talk to me until I've had my coffee. She's a like, I just want to be with my cats.

[19:12] Andrew McGuire: And I guess if you're and she's she's very aware.

[19:17] Allison Todge: She is a caricature of herself, I think. Like the the TikToks that are like Tara Taylor Swift performing at the Aerist Tour, and she's like, audio medium, I'm Taylor Swifting.

[19:27] Andrew McGuire: Like holding her mic and like a little bit of the audience.

[19:31] Allison Todge: Yeah, like looking around at the end.

[19:34] Andrew McGuire: And she like always seems like surprised.

[19:36] Allison Todge: I think it's like it is funny. Like when she turns around and she's like surprised that like the song in her set list is playing.

[19:42] Andrew McGuire: Like I think that's like hilarious.

[19:45] Allison Todge: But like I'm just like, I don't know. There's something I just don't get it.

[19:47] Andrew McGuire: Like, no hate. She dove into the stage.

[19:50] Allison Todge: I don't understand the schematics of that. How does she how did she do that?

[19:53] Andrew McGuire: So there's like a flat board.

[19:57] Allison Todge: That seems so dangerous.

[19:59] Andrew McGuire: Um there's a flat board that's has cushions on it, and she dives into it and she rides it to the front of stage.

[20:09] Allison Todge: Does she come out drenched?

[20:11] Andrew McGuire: No, actually, she comes out very dry.

[20:15] Allison Todge: I wish she would.

[20:16] Andrew McGuire: She did, I did see Fearless Tour back in 2008.

[20:23] Allison Todge: 2009? Maybe 2009.

[20:25] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[20:26] Allison Todge: Freegley. Freegly, Preagley.

[20:28] Andrew McGuire: Um, it's in the seventh grade, and uh I loved it, and she ended.

[20:35] Allison Todge: We did this thing, my mom and I. We left during the last song, but we shouldn't have, because it was beautiful.

[20:41] Andrew McGuire: I only saw half of it, but she sang should have said no in the rain.

[20:45] Allison Todge: And she did that. She said no. Should have gone home. Should've done.

[20:51] Andrew McGuire: Um is a scram scream dog.

[20:54] Allison Todge: Or saying an owl I tap it on.

[20:56] Andrew McGuire: Oh, your window.

[21:00] Allison Todge: On the phone.

[21:00] Andrew McGuire: So it's like your mama don't know.

[21:03] Allison Todge: That country music is why I can do a fucking amazing country accent.

[21:09] Andrew McGuire: Huh, okay.

[21:09] Allison Todge: It's like me when I say I have perfect pitch.

[21:12] Andrew McGuire: No, I can't do a perfect country accent. I just don't pull it out all the time.

[21:18] Allison Todge: Okay. I again Gleeks way in. Is this a good one?

[21:21] Andrew McGuire: Wait, I'm not doing it yet.

[21:24] Allison Todge: Um, what do you want me to say? Taylor Swift is the best performer of our time, and she's an incredible woman.

[21:35] Andrew McGuire: I really love to see her perform, and I can't believe that she dives into the stage every single night and she sings for three and a half hours.

[21:44] Allison Todge: Isn't that crazy? That's really truly insane.

[21:47] Andrew McGuire: You just had someone walk into the room and do audio medium. There's someone else in the room now.

[21:52] Allison Todge: Reba McIntyre's here.

[21:56] Andrew McGuire: Reba, why won't you join us and do the Glackett with us?

[21:59] Reba McIntyre: I am so sorry. I wish I could stay. I wish I could stay, but my my Uber's around the corner, and I I gotta I gotta get out of here.

[22:07] Reba McIntyre: Um, she was just picking up her things from the Allison's apartment.

[22:11] Reba McIntyre: I was just picking up my things from my good friend Allison's house. And uh I would I would love to weigh in on the Glackett, um, but I I do think y'all are gonna pull landslide tonight because um that's my favorite song remaining on the Gleek of the Week Remaining Songs playlist, and um I hope y'all have a good night.

[22:31] Andrew McGuire: Thank you.

[22:32] Allison Todge: That is really good, Reba.

[22:38] Andrew McGuire: Um I also feel landslide.

[22:41] Allison Todge: I haven't been recording this whole time.

[22:43] Andrew McGuire: No, you haven't.

[22:44] Allison Todge: My quick time said no.

[22:46] Andrew McGuire: Wait, are you kidding?

[22:48] Allison Todge: I'm not joking.

[22:49] Andrew McGuire: Fuck. Really?

[22:50] Allison Todge: Wait, why?

[22:51] Andrew McGuire: I mean, I had the zoom.

[22:52] Allison Todge: Yeah, I don't it stopped at two minutes and thirty-one seconds, and I didn't notice until Reba left the room.

[22:58] Andrew McGuire: Oh, okay. Alright.

[22:59] Allison Todge: That's why she sounds a little tinny.

[23:01] Andrew McGuire: Okay, bye everybody.

[23:03] Allison Todge: Bye.

[23:04] Andrew McGuire: Um, okay. Uh, we are back this week with another glistener who has been in with us for a while, has listened to every single episode of Gleak the Week.

[23:12] Andrew McGuire: Um, Jessica, how are you?

[23:14] Jessica: I am doing so well. Thank you for having me.

[23:16] Andrew McGuire: Of course. We're so excited.

[23:19] Allison Todge: Before we get started, Andrew, I have a question.

[23:22] Jessica: Um, audio wise, I've never like looked at Quick Time Audio before.

[23:28] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[23:29] Jessica: But the volume is all the way down. Is that okay?

[23:31] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, the volume, yeah, because then it would play. You want it to be all the way down.

[23:34] Jessica: Yes, I want it to be all the way down.

[23:37] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[23:37] Jessica: Okay, sweet.

[23:39] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[23:39] Jessica: Um, back into it. Leave that in.

[23:42] Andrew McGuire: Um, Jessica. We're so excited to talk to you tonight. We want to start with the age old question.

[23:50] Andrew McGuire: This show, Glee, G-L-E-E. What does it mean to you? What's your relationship with this uh this show?

[23:57] Jessica: Um, so I think I was just one of the people who was sucked in from the first episode.

[24:03] Jessica: Yeah, I just I watched every single episode, even through episode or sorry, season six.

[24:09] Jessica: I was hate watching season six, not gonna lie.

[24:12] Andrew McGuire: But uh, yes, yes, yes.

[24:15] Jessica: Yeah, but I watched every episode.

[24:17] Jessica: I recorded it, you know, via direct TV and I'd watch it after work. It was great.

[24:22] Andrew McGuire: Wow. I love on demand.

[24:25] Jessica: Oh, well, no, I just, you know, like the Tebo situation.

[24:28] Andrew McGuire: TiVo. What a throwback that word is.

[24:31] Jessica: I know. Ask people who are like 16. Do you know what a TiVo is?

[24:34] Andrew McGuire: I hardly know what a TiVo is.

[24:38] Jessica: Much like they don't know what dial up is.

[24:41] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[24:41] Jessica: Yeah.

[24:41] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[24:43] Allison Todge: Wait, wait, so wait, Jessica, you were wait. I'm trying to follow what you said. You watched it live, but you also recorded it.

[24:50] Jessica: And so you could watch it again. Is that what you're saying?

[24:50] Jessica: Or no?

[24:53] Jessica: No, like I watched it live, but I had to record some episodes, like if I was working when it was gonna be.

[24:58] Andrew McGuire: Oh, you weren't taking off work for Glee.

[25:01] Jessica: I mean, I was waiting table, so it was kind of hard.

[25:04] Andrew McGuire: Okay. So not a true gleek.

[25:06] Jessica: Okay. We're writing that down.

[25:10] Andrew McGuire: That's like when that's like when this uh The Last of Us comes out uh on HBO Max right after it's aired.

[25:17] Jessica: Just for reference.

[25:18] Andrew McGuire: Oh, to make it make sense.

[25:21] Jessica: Make it make sense.

[25:21] Andrew McGuire: Make it make sense.

[25:22] Jessica: Um to the young people.

[25:25] Andrew McGuire: Wait, and so in your submission form, you said that you were in choir, and you said in your submission form, I'm like paraphrasing, but you were like, I was in choir, which is different from Glee, and we all know what the differences are.

[25:37] Jessica: We are not, we were not in either.

[25:39] Andrew McGuire: And so, like, I feel like I understand what the the differences are, but like what are the big differences to you?

[25:46] Jessica: Yeah, so glee is very much like show choir.

[25:50] Andrew McGuire: Okay, right.

[25:51] Jessica: And I was in the most basic form of choir, which is you just have this like, you know, um class every day where you practice songs and maybe you have like two shows a year.

[26:04] Jessica: Um so yeah, it was not nearly as cool as glee, despite what the kids are saying.

[26:09] Andrew McGuire: It was uh what were you singing?

[26:11] Jessica: Yeah, it was very basic.

[26:13] Jessica: Oh my gosh, I can't even remember.

[26:15] Jessica: I will tell you that my audition song was like uh they go by the chicks now, not the Dixie Chicks, but you know, at the time it was uh it was a Dixie Chick song.

[26:24] Jessica: Um, but I think we were just doing like I don't know, not quite religious songs, but safe for school songs.

[26:32] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[26:32] Jessica: Got you.

[26:33] Andrew McGuire: Wait, I need to know the chick song.

[26:35] Jessica: Was it wide open spaces?

[26:39] Andrew McGuire: Traveling soldier.

[26:41] Jessica: Nope, nope, nope. This is like you have to be a s a real chicks fan, I think, to know this.

[26:46] Jessica: It was um not ready to make nice.

[26:48] Andrew McGuire: I do know that song.

[26:49] Jessica: Then sing, yeah.

[26:51] Andrew McGuire: And I had to ask my uh no I want Alison to sing it.

[26:56] Allison Todge: Yeah, I'm here for that.

[26:58] Andrew McGuire: Isn't it not ready to make nice, not ready to do it?

[27:05] Jessica: Exactly.

[27:07] Andrew McGuire: I I know my country music. Are we bcintyre was just in here and I learned every single every single country song while she was in here?

[27:16] Jessica: I how dare you!

[27:18] Andrew McGuire: No there.

[27:19] Jessica: I listened to um Gaslighter, the album, not just the single throughout like most of the pandemic.

[27:26] Andrew McGuire: Not most of the early pandemic.

[27:28] Jessica: What happened on that boat, man?

[27:30] Andrew McGuire: Oh yeah. These tights.

[27:34] Jessica: Oh my god. I loved that for her. That was like I I was obsessed.

[27:40] Andrew McGuire: Um wow. Okay. I just wanted to just put my country card out there.

[27:46] Allison Todge: Hey, I also okay.

[27:50] Jessica: Um, my choir sang, I wasn't choir. I don't know if I've ever said this on the pod. I was in choir, like an extracurricular choir in elementary school, and we sang that Sesame Street song. Um, oh my god, what is it? Um, wait. Sing, sing a song.

[28:11] Andrew McGuire: I think I know what you're talking about.

[28:13] Jessica: That and then um, oh god. There was another one. Uh, but I can't remember it. Fuck! Is this a good story?

[28:25] Andrew McGuire: I love it.

[28:26] Jessica: Story, everybody! Audio medium? Me and Tiscar are like, oh my god, oh my god, we love this. But with our mouths, with her faces, not with her mouths. Um, I was in choir.

[28:38] Allison Todge: I can really.

[28:39] Jessica: So that's your choir card. You're putting your choir card in there.

[28:41] Andrew McGuire: I gotta put my choir card in there as well.

[28:44] Jessica: Oh good.

[28:45] Andrew McGuire: Anyways, um, Jessica, you've listened to the podcast.

[28:50] Jessica: Every damn episode.

[28:52] Andrew McGuire: Every goddamn episode. Do you have some thoughts for us, some hot takes on what we've said?

[28:59] Jessica: You know I do.

[29:00] Andrew McGuire: Oh, she's looking at notes.

[29:02] Jessica: Okay. I have made I made a note. I need you to know this note was created April 1st of last year. That's how long ago curating my thoughts.

[29:11] Allison Todge: April Fools.

[29:12] Jessica: Um, yeah, um, so the Gleeks are gonna come for me for some of my um opinions.

[29:19] Andrew McGuire: My opinions.

[29:20] Jessica: We'll protect you. Um, so when I started watching the show, I was we'll just say it, living under a rock, and I was not very familiar with musicals.

[29:31] Andrew McGuire: So I was not a big Kristen Chenoweth fan when the show was airing.

[29:37] Jessica: Now, big Kristen fan. Please, Jan Kristen in this house. Country girl!

[29:41] Allison Todge: Um, she's putting her country card forward.

[29:47] Jessica: Yeah, run Joey Run does next to nothing for me. I think those are the ones that the colleagues are gonna hate me for.

[29:53] Andrew McGuire: I know.

[29:54] Jessica: I know. Wait, and these are still like wait, that that's a current day opinion.

[29:54] Andrew McGuire: That's a current day opinion.

[29:59] Jessica: Okay, brilliant.

[30:00] Andrew McGuire: Wow, okay. You haven't evolved since then.

[30:02] Jessica: Uh okay. Maybe, maybe. Um, but okay. One question I have for you guys is why is Kurt and Blaine's ship name Clay instead of Blurt?

[30:14] Andrew McGuire: That is such a good question.

[30:16] Jessica: I think it was just like it's too close to Burr, right?

[30:19] Allison Todge: That's that's my one caveat.

[30:21] Jessica: So okay, okay. I'll blow it up.

[30:23] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[30:24] Jessica: Thank god. Blurt would have been more fun.

[30:26] Allison Todge: Yeah.

[30:27] Jessica: Um, I definitely so there was a listener last summer named Ben who said something about like we didn't get enough Unique and Mercedes duets, and I could not agree with that more.

[30:38] Andrew McGuire: We didn't get any, yeah.

[30:39] Jessica: Yeah, we needed more of that content. Um, I disagreed about um Damien's content not being fun enough because he only sang songs about colors.

[30:52] Andrew McGuire: I think um his covers are gorgeous, and I like that he only sings songs about colors.

[30:56] Jessica: It's fun. We need more songs about colors.

[31:03] Andrew McGuire: There's plenty more where that came from, so let's do it.

[31:06] Jessica: Um wait, we're talking about country music. Could he have sang Rainbow by Kacey Musgraves?

[31:13] Andrew McGuire: Absolutely, and I think that yeah, would absolutely be on Glee and Chinese.

[31:17] Jessica: That would have been really good.

[31:19] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[31:20] Jessica: Wait, there's no song called Red by Taylor Swift. That's just the album.

[31:23] Andrew McGuire: There is.

[31:23] Jessica: No, no, there is.

[31:25] Andrew McGuire: What is it?

[31:26] Jessica: Loving him was red.

[31:28] Andrew McGuire: Oh, yeah, she did the whole song about colors.

[31:30] Jessica: Absolutely. Loving him was red. Missing him was blue, like I never knew.

[31:34] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[31:35] Jessica: Rory. Missing him was dark gray all alone.

[31:37] Andrew McGuire: Rory, y'all hearing this?

[31:40] Jessica: Rory.

[31:42] Andrew McGuire: We're writing you in.

[31:43] Jessica: We're writing you in. This is your end.

[31:45] Andrew McGuire: This is here in for the cuckoo.

[31:47] Jessica: Yeah.

[31:49] Andrew McGuire: Um, let's see. One of the few times I disagreed with Andrew.

[31:53] Jessica: Um, I'm obsessed with Turning Tables.

[31:55] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[31:56] Jessica: I know that you were not a big fan, but that's fine.

[31:59] Andrew McGuire: Um, and then I know you were also not a big fan of Unchained Melody, but I was like super emo about that song, and I think Jake's voice.

[32:09] Allison Todge: No, I I like it.

[32:11] Jessica: Oh, okay.

[32:12] Allison Todge: You did not.

[32:14] Jessica: That's the um, that's when they're making the pottery.

[32:17] Andrew McGuire: It's it's the ghost one.

[32:18] Jessica: Yeah.

[32:19] Andrew McGuire: But when you say Unchained Melody, this is what plays in my head.

[32:28] Jessica: Wait, what is that?

[32:31] Andrew McGuire: Like the saxophone.

[32:32] Jessica: Yeah, whatever. What is that sound called?

[32:36] Andrew McGuire: Unchained Melody.

[32:37] Jessica: Not no.

[32:39] Andrew McGuire: But it hits for you, Jessica.

[32:41] Jessica: Unchained Melody. It hits for me.

[32:43] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[32:45] Jessica: Um, and then the last thing is a few weeks ago, you guys were talking about Santana challenging Rachel for um for Fanny, right?

[32:54] Andrew McGuire: And how like you were saying you were saying, like, oh, it should have been somebody else.

[32:54] Jessica: It should have been Lindsay Pearce. That's who should have challenged her.

[33:02] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[33:03] Jessica: Thank you for saying that. Bring her back.

[33:05] Andrew McGuire: Thank you.

[33:06] Jessica: Right?

[33:07] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[33:07] Jessica: We're writing her back in too.

[33:09] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[33:09] Jessica: Yes. Rory and Lindsay.

[33:10] Andrew McGuire: Rory and Lindsay.

[33:11] Jessica: Come on, your time is now.

[33:12] Andrew McGuire: Come on, come on, come on.

[33:15] Jessica: Time to go.

[33:16] Andrew McGuire: Rory and Lindsay.

[33:17] Jessica: Rory, a character name, Lindsay, an actress name.

[33:20] Andrew McGuire: Rory and Lindsay.

[33:22] Jessica: Oh, my notes are all mixed up that way.

[33:24] Andrew McGuire: Sorry.

[33:25] Jessica: Sorry.

[33:25] Andrew McGuire: No, that's good.

[33:28] Jessica: Wow.

[33:29] Andrew McGuire: That was beautiful.

[33:31] Jessica: I'm glad that somebody out here is saying things about Turning Tables.

[33:35] Andrew McGuire: Listen, I think I said it. I said it in the episode. It was because of PTSD that I can't like that because there was something caught in my eye when that when that performance was happening and I was watching it live.

[33:45] Jessica: And so every time I watch the performance, I have trauma.

[33:52] Andrew McGuire: Fine.

[33:52] Jessica: I'm sorry.

[33:54] Andrew McGuire: Fine. Razor sharp eyelashes over there.

[33:57] Jessica: Exactly.

[34:01] Andrew McGuire: Um, wait, so what song do you wait? Do you have any more hot takes?

[34:05] Jessica: Those are all of my hot takes.

[34:06] Andrew McGuire: I'm glad that you got them all out.

[34:08] Jessica: Um do what songs are you manifesting this evening?

[34:13] Andrew McGuire: Oh yes, yes, yes, yes.

[34:15] Jessica: I have a list for that too.

[34:16] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[34:16] Jessica: Um, so I checked the remaining songs playlist, and I am hoping that it is still up to date.

[34:16] Andrew McGuire: It is.

[34:22] Jessica: I I updated it after every recording.

[34:24] Andrew McGuire: Yes.

[34:25] Jessica: Amazing. Amazing. Um, I have been manifesting that you will not pull Somewhere Only We Know until I'm on.

[34:31] Andrew McGuire: So fingers crossed, that's happening this evening.

[34:34] Jessica: Um also would be uh super ecstatic if we got I Feel Pretty/Unpretty.

[34:39] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[34:40] Jessica: Or um Dancing with Myself is one of my favorite already songs.

[34:45] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[34:45] Jessica: So that would be great.

[34:47] Andrew McGuire: Listen is we don't talk about it enough.

[34:51] Jessica: Up there.

[34:51] Andrew McGuire: It's way up there.

[34:53] Jessica: There are some serious bops left on this list.

[34:55] Andrew McGuire: Um Baby It's You would love it.

[34:58] Jessica: Oh, okay.

[34:59] Andrew McGuire: That that's where you lose us.

[35:02] Jessica: With a Baby It's You.

[35:02] Andrew McGuire: Baby It's You is I think it's fun.

[35:05] Jessica: It's silly.

[35:06] Andrew McGuire: Cheat.

[35:08] Jessica: I think it's as far as like Marcellos go, we'll get to it when we pull a little bit.

[35:14] Andrew McGuire: What wait, defend it.

[35:16] Jessica: No, I don't think it's like top tier Mercolo.

[35:20] Andrew McGuire: But it's a fun listen.

[35:21] Jessica: You're not.

[35:23] Andrew McGuire: I'm not skipping it, you know.

[35:24] Jessica: It's great.

[35:25] Andrew McGuire: It's a good time.

[35:27] Jessica: It's a good time.

[35:27] Andrew McGuire: Um, the other one I have is I Will Always Love You, which you know is kind of a classic.

[35:33] Jessica: Um yeah.

[35:33] Andrew McGuire: So kind of.

[35:35] Jessica: Yeah.

[35:35] Andrew McGuire: Kind of.

[35:40] Jessica: If we had Somewhere We Go Sometimes tonight, I would simply explode.

[35:47] Andrew McGuire: Freak out.

[35:50] Jessica: Like Somewhere We Go Sometimes versus I Feel Pretty/Unpretty, that would literally shatter me.

[35:54] Andrew McGuire: Scary to me.

[35:55] Jessica: I know what I would pick, but scary to me.

[36:00] Andrew McGuire: Um, well, the first song I picked is none of those.

[36:02] Jessica: So it is something uh that I talked about last week, not because I'm excited about it, but um because uh I'm I was not looking forward to watching it.

[36:18] Andrew McGuire: Um but here we go.

[36:20] Jessica: Well we there's a lot to discuss.

[36:21] Andrew McGuire: There's a lot of content.

[36:23] Jessica: Oh, there is so much content here.

[36:25] Andrew McGuire: It must have been now.

[36:42] Jessica: Leave the winter on the ground.

[36:48] Andrew McGuire: Why don't we just decide beforehand that this doesn't have to mean anything?

[36:53] Jessica: We make a promise right now that it means nothing.

[36:55] Andrew McGuire: Let's do what we have to do.

[36:57] Jessica: And all around.

[37:00] Andrew McGuire: Touch me now.

[37:03] Jessica: I close my eyes and dream away.

[37:11] Andrew McGuire: It must have been love.

[37:14] Jessica: But it's all now.

[37:17] Andrew McGuire: It must have been.

[37:18] Jessica: So we're in agreement.

[37:20] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, this doesn't mean anything.

[37:24] Jessica: The only reason that we're doing this is because it's the only way that Sue's gonna let us out.

[37:28] Andrew McGuire: Because Sue is forcing us.

[37:30] Jessica: Forcing us.

[37:35] Andrew McGuire: On the count of three.

[37:37] Jessica: One where the wind blows.

[37:53] Andrew McGuire: It must have been loud.

[37:56] Jessica: But it's over now.

[37:59] Andrew McGuire: It must have been good.

[38:02] Jessica: But I lost its own.

[38:08] Andrew McGuire: But it's over now.

[38:11] Jessica: It's where the ladder falls.

[38:17] Andrew McGuire: It's when the wind blows.

[38:43] Jessica: Oh my god, wow.

[38:46] Andrew McGuire: So much time.

[38:47] Jessica: Oh my god.

[38:48] Andrew McGuire: Oh, wow, wow, wow.

[38:50] Jessica: Wowie Zowie.

[38:52] Andrew McGuire: Jessica. You okay?

[38:55] Jessica: I'm alright. I um listen. When the scene is more notable than the song, it's unfortunate, you know.

[39:03] Andrew McGuire: Um I feel like there could have been a better song choice, maybe, but it was alright.

[39:08] Jessica: Yeah, it was alright.

[39:09] Andrew McGuire: Um wait, so are you a a clean, cleany girl?

[39:13] Jessica: Oh, cleanstand, yeah.

[39:14] Andrew McGuire: Okay, okay, okay.

[39:15] Jessica: Okay.

[39:15] Andrew McGuire: A blurt.

[39:18] Jessica: Sorry.

[39:18] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[39:19] Jessica: Okay.

[39:21] Andrew McGuire: This is like the redemption arc of season six, in my opinion.

[39:28] Jessica: Hurtlocker as a whole is scary to me.

[39:32] Andrew McGuire: Part one and part two.

[39:34] Jessica: But I this scene is so deeply what the fuck.

[39:41] Andrew McGuire: I love that I do like it.

[39:41] Jessica: Um, Kurt and Blaine being stuck in the elevator by Jigsu.

[39:47] Andrew McGuire: Um, it's the part I did not watch season six when it came out, but I was still on Tumblr.

[39:54] Jessica: And I remember seeing this and be like, what the f what's going on happened to this show?

[40:01] Andrew McGuire: Jigsu.

[40:02] Jessica: That's how I was that's how we were both spending our Friday nights with this with Jigsu.

[40:02] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[40:02] Jessica: With Jigsu.

[40:09] Andrew McGuire: Fridays with Jigsu.

[40:10] Jessica: He's a jigsu.

[40:11] Andrew McGuire: I I thought, I think when I talked about it last episode, when I was like, oh, the MP4 is weird about this song.

[40:18] Jessica: I thought I was rolling it into the same situation as the other two songs from this set list.

[40:25] Andrew McGuire: Um, where we're watching montages of Sue and her former lovers or her former career goals.

[40:34] Jessica: Father figure is Republican candidates losing and like the Democratic nominees, like uh no, the Republican uh nominees conceding.

[40:45] Andrew McGuire: And then All Out of Love was Sue being told that she didn't get the part the Julia Roberts part in like uh Pretty Woman and like the Carrie Fisher part in Star Wars and everything.

[40:58] Jessica: And so this is Clain kissing, which I love.

[41:04] Andrew McGuire: You like uh this was there in this Hurt Locker scene.

[41:09] Jessica: I feel like I remember them being like, okay, let's just kiss, and they go, and it's really quick, and then Jigsu is like, no no no.

[41:16] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, we need give the cleaners what they want.

[41:19] Jessica: Me, give the cleaners what they want, we need some makeup.

[41:21] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[41:21] Jessica: Ah, this that kiss was that was really good.

[41:25] Andrew McGuire: I never realized how good it was.

[41:27] Jessica: I'll be thinking about that for a long time.

[41:30] Andrew McGuire: The framing of Jigsu throwing up her arm, and it's like framing Clain Kiss.

[41:37] Andrew McGuire: I'm like, wow, this is look at this shot. Study this in film school, you know. Cinematography.

[41:44] Jessica: Yeah, yeah.

[41:44] Andrew McGuire: I don't remember the game with folks who have not seen all of this, all the episodes, like where you ask, like, is this a real thing or is this a fake thing? Because this absolutely should be part of that game.

[41:55] Jessica: Yeah.

[41:57] Andrew McGuire: Is this made up or is this real?

[41:59] Jessica: Yeah. I know. This is really an insane storyline, but I mean, I'm a Klanner till I die, so I want to watch Kurt and Blaine tongue.

[42:10] Jessica: It's giving very fanfiction. Like, I'm just glad that it's like it's like a really funny fanfic writer was in the room for these Hurt Locker episodes, and they got the cast to film these. And I'm like, I'm so thankful. Like because it's giving half the room was talking about beef. Half the room is talking about beef, and then the other half was like Kurt Locker. Okay, this is what we're doing.

[42:37] Allison Todge: Um Oscar for a woman for best director.

[42:45] Andrew McGuire: Um, I think second only to Barbara Streisand, actually.

[42:51] Jessica: For director?

[42:52] Andrew McGuire: For director.

[42:53] Jessica: Ooh, someone fact check me on that one.

[42:56] Andrew McGuire: Today I learned, today I learned, yeah, I'm almost positive. Jessica, are you fact checking?

[43:01] Jessica: Yeah.

[43:01] Andrew McGuire: Okay. Yeah, let me know about that one. Because wasn't the director of the Hurt Locker married to James Cameron?

[43:08] Jessica: Yeah.

[43:09] Andrew McGuire: And she was like, yeah, go fuck yourself, James Cameron, because Avatar was nominated the same year.

[43:09] Jessica: Was Avatar nominated the same year as Hurt Locker?

[43:17] Andrew McGuire: Was it?

[43:18] Jessica: Yes.

[43:18] Andrew McGuire: I believe it was. And Miss Streisand does not have a directing Oscar.

[43:24] Jessica: Ooh, wait, where did I get that from then?

[43:26] Andrew McGuire: I mean, according to a quick Google search. She's got best actress, original song, and picture.

[43:32] Jessica: Yeah.

[43:38] Allison Todge: For once.

[43:42] Andrew McGuire: Okay, so I knew that I wasn't making this entirely up. It's not the Oscars, though. Barbara Streisand was the first woman to win Best Director at the Golden Globes.

[43:54] Jessica: Um, and was the only woman up until a few years ago when Chloe Zhao won.

[43:59] Andrew McGuire: That's the only Oscars fact that I know is that the Hurt Locker. I did not make this up though. I'm not saying that your Google is lying.

[44:07] Jessica: I know. Who did Barbara? What did Barbara Streisand direct?

[44:10] Andrew McGuire: Listen, I don't know. I just remember reading that fact somewhere. Anyway, I know that like Barbara Streisand in Hurt Locker is so glee-coated and we are having a glee conversation, but like please, let's bring it back to the Hurt Locker part two.

[44:22] Allison Todge: Uh, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.

[44:25] Andrew McGuire: Hurt Locker Part two. The Kurt Locker.

[44:27] Jessica: The Kurt Locker.

[44:30] Andrew McGuire: First of all, you've been going to this fucking school for how long? And you take the elevator that has never existed. I mean, that's hilarious. I think that's so funny to me that they're like, okay, yeah, let's take the elevator to the auditorium, which I have every reason to believe is on the same floor as that hallway that they were in. We've never seen a second floor.

[44:47] Jessica: We've never, I mean, wait. There is a second.

[44:51] Andrew McGuire: There are second floors. There's a set of stairs in front of Principal Figgins' office.

[44:56] Jessica: Uh oh, interesting.

[44:58] Andrew McGuire: But like they were on the same floor. Glee Club is on the first floor because they look out their window to a pathway.

[45:07] Jessica: Yeah, the Yeah.

[45:09] Andrew McGuire: And Emma's. That's like all on the same floor.

[45:12] Jessica: Emma's um office, which office, the nurse's office.

[45:12] Andrew McGuire: The nurse's.

[45:18] Jessica: It's like all yeah.

[45:19] Andrew McGuire: That's on first floor. I don't think we some people do this for like Friends and Seinfeld. They've laid out a map of the apartments. Can somebody do that for William McKinley High School, please?

[45:31] Jessica: I tried to make it Willie McKinley High School on Sims 3.

[45:35] Andrew McGuire: Really?

[45:36] Jessica: And like they don't make the you can't make a lot big enough to hold these things.

[45:40] Andrew McGuire: Are you a simmer, Jessica?

[45:43] Jessica: I was for a while, yeah.

[45:44] Andrew McGuire: Yeah. A simmer. Is that what you call yourself?

[45:48] Jessica: Yeah.

[45:48] Andrew McGuire: What else are we saying? Bring the salted water to a simmer.

[45:57] Jessica: And they'll figure it out for you.

[45:59] Andrew McGuire: We will figure it out. Simmers know what to do.

[46:04] Allison Todge: Um, okay. Well, any further thoughts about Must Have Been Love?

[46:10] Jessica: Only that, you know, let's just add Sue's behavior to the list of things that could never happen in a school in 2020.

[46:17] Andrew McGuire: Right, right. I did love that like during like Sue's reign in season six, like she has like the um the text going in the hallways, and they always have like fun little jokes. And the one in this performance was none of you are hot. And I'm like, that's so good. That's actually hilarious.

[46:36] Jessica: Oh god, that's good. I think Jessica said it perfectly when it's the when the scene is more important than the song, you know it's up.

[46:44] Allison Todge: Um, I have a season five blolo.

[46:48] Jessica: Oop.

[46:49] Allison Todge: Season five blow.

[46:50] Jessica: A season five blolo.

[46:52] Allison Todge: I would be surprised if we had another one.

[46:54] Jessica: Um, if there's two. I think there's only one.

[46:56] Allison Todge: One in the entire season?

[46:59] Jessica: No, one left.

[47:04] Allison Todge: Oh, no, just season five. Sorry. I'm being like weirdly like gatekeeping information.

[47:09] Jessica: Um, okay, we know what it is. Jessica, it's like a very sadly Michelle looking down, and it's a blow low.

[47:16] Allison Todge: Oh, I really don't know.

[47:19] Jessica: I really don't know either.

[47:22] Allison Todge: First half or second half?

[47:24] Jessica: This is this is 5B.

[47:25] Allison Todge: No, I don't know.

[47:26] Jessica: This is not while I'm around.

[47:29] Andrew McGuire: Wow, fuck.

[47:31] Jessica: Nothing's gonna harm you. Not while I'm around.

[47:40] Andrew McGuire: Nothing's gonna harm you, no, sir. Not while I'm around.

[47:48] Jessica: Yeah, let's get out of that lower register, please.

[47:56] Andrew McGuire: Being close and being clever ain't like being true. I don't need to. I would never hide a thing from you. Like some demons will charm you with a smile for a while. But in time nothing can harm you.

[48:48] Jessica: Wow, that's a tiny little. That's it.

[48:50] Andrew McGuire: That's a tiny little MP4.

[48:53] Jessica: She's short.

[48:54] Andrew McGuire: She's short.

[48:54] Jessica: She's short, but she's mighty. Um Jessica, have you been keeping up with the Gwyneth Paltrow show trial?

[48:59] Andrew McGuire: She's small, but she's mighty.

[49:02] Jessica: Yeah. Your content lately has been that's okay. I was dying laughing at the landslide mashup thing.

[49:09] Andrew McGuire: Thank you. I was like, I need to be the first one. I was like searching Twitter. I was like, is anybody making a connection between Landslide and the ski accident? No one has, and I was like, I'm so glad to be doing this. Anyway, um, not while I'm around. Glee Cast versus my Glee Cast. Jessica, what are your thoughts?

[49:26] Jessica: Um, it is a beautiful blow. Um, I think, yeah, definitely lower register in Allison. You're right. Um, it's yeah, it's pretty. His voice is gorgeous. We know this. This is not news. Um, I don't think that it's like a top blow low for me. Um, we love those little shots between hospital room and yada. Like they're just yeah, easy transitions. Um, but yeah, I mean it's it's it's a good blow. It's uh, you know, solid blowo.

[50:00] Andrew McGuire: I love this blow. Is this MP3 a blow low?

[50:02] Jessica: This MP3 is not a blow. The MP4 is a blow low.

[50:06] Andrew McGuire: Yeah. Okay.

[50:07] Jessica: Okay, okay. Herdes, Rachel, and Sam also in it.

[50:12] Andrew McGuire: Okay. Yeah. Um, well, I love this because we get to talk about Sweeney Todd now on Broadway. Previews.

[50:20] Jessica: Okay. Um, because I do love this song. I think it's I really love this part in the musical. Gaten Matarazzo is the boy.

[50:35] Andrew McGuire: Gaten Matarazzo is the boy.

[50:37] Jessica: He's the boy. What the fuck is his name? He has a name, but it's I I'm just thinking Gavroche from Les Mis.

[50:43] Andrew McGuire: Gavroche.

[50:44] Jessica: Which I'm pretty sure that's who Gaten Matarazzo played in Les Mis when he was.

[50:49] Andrew McGuire: Oh, really?

[50:49] Jessica: Oh, that's hilarious. I love that. Um, but I would love to see Gaten Matarazzo sing this song live on Broadway. So if anybody like wants to buy me tickets, um, that's fine.

[51:02] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[51:02] Jessica: Um, but I love this song. This is like a Sweeney Todd, not a Sweeney Todd, uh Steven Sondheim episode.

[51:11] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[51:12] Jessica: Uh, without really looking at it as that. Like, they don't really address it.

[51:15] Andrew McGuire: No, they do. They they so like the whole context is that like they have to sing a solo for Whoopie, and it needs to be a Stephen Sondheim.

[51:29] Jessica: Do they really say that in the episode?

[51:31] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, like they there's like a I distinctly remember they're all around the dinner table, and like they're like, they all say Sondheim like in Sing Songy Sondheim.

[51:41] Jessica: Mmm, got you, gotcha.

[51:43] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, I don't know. But like they also sing like Aretha Franklin in the same episode, so right.

[51:48] Jessica: So it's not necessarily a whole Stephen Sondheim episode.

[51:51] Andrew McGuire: No, I'd say like 75.

[51:53] Jessica: Water balls.

[51:54] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Ryan Murphy makes this shit up as he goes on.

[51:58] Jessica: Um I I don't know. I don't know about this.

[52:04] Andrew McGuire: What?

[52:05] Jessica: Because I don't know about this.

[52:07] Andrew McGuire: You don't like it?

[52:09] Jessica: No, I don't know.

[52:12] Andrew McGuire: I don't know anything.

[52:15] Jessica: Wait, this is really coming out of left field? I was like expecting you to be like, it's Blaine, it's Sweeney Todd. It's crispy audio.

[52:22] Andrew McGuire: It's crispy.

[52:24] Jessica: I wish there was the orchestra behind it.

[52:28] Andrew McGuire: No, I love it. No, I'm obsessed with it, actually.

[52:32] Jessica: It's not giving how will I know.

[52:36] Andrew McGuire: That is crispy audio.

[52:38] Jessica: No. Voices only. There's like a whole there's a whole TikTok account. I don't know the name of the TikTok account, but they do like stripped vocals.

[52:47] Andrew McGuire: Okay, yeah, exactly.

[52:48] Jessica: Where they like play the glee song with the instrumental, and then like all of a sudden you see a sliding bar disappear, and it's just the stripped vocals. And I'm like, oh, I love that.

[52:56] Andrew McGuire: Wait, so with what you just said, you hate that.

[53:02] Jessica: You hate it.

[53:02] Andrew McGuire: I like the stripped vocals. I don't like it on this one.

[53:06] Jessica: That's so because I'm hearing the flaws in it.

[53:09] Andrew McGuire: The flaws are glaring to me. I don't even know how to sing. Don't make me sing.

[53:16] Jessica: Wait, but she's complex.

[53:19] Andrew McGuire: All right. She's complex. I'm complex.

[53:21] Jessica: Wait, I'm scared for not while I'm around. But I am gonna vote for it.

[53:26] Andrew McGuire: Oh.

[53:27] Jessica: That being said, I'm I fuck whatever the fuck I pulled. It must have been love. I was I was like, okay, maybe we're voting the camp choice.

[53:37] Andrew McGuire: No.

[53:38] Jessica: No. I'm not.

[53:39] Andrew McGuire: Okay. Jessica, what's up?

[53:41] Jessica: Um, That's tough. Because I I think the only reason I would vote for It Must Have Been Love is for the claim of it all.

[53:51] Andrew McGuire: Right.

[53:52] Jessica: You're getting you're sort of getting clain with the hot with much better vocals too. Because I mean the season six crew is great. There's a handful of them that are like very, very talented, but yeah, I think I'm gonna have to go with not while I'm around.

[54:10] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[54:10] Jessica: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Not while I'm around. Winning.

[54:15] Allison Todge: And I um, I texted oh wait, I needed to bring this up and that with um It Must've Been Love because Allison, you texted simply the most like hilarious thing the other night when you texted me that they were playing a song that was part of the Gleek of the Week remaining songs playlist at trivia, and I texted back hilariously, I feel pretty I'm pretty and and then you said yes, and then like twenty minutes later I was like, wait, actually what song were they playing? And then I texted again and was like, what song were they playing? And then you said it must have been love, and then in another text, but it's over now with a like a like little sideways face. And I was like, I told like a lice about I was like, this is so funny. This is so.

[54:56] Jessica: Yeah. Because the song was over. But it's over, but it's over now. But those are the lyrics.

[55:04] Allison Todge: Um, that's unintentional, but so so good. I did like that. Um also my my legal note about um not while I'm around, my one note about this song is that it's the we were talk texting about this as well that not while I'm around and Ben are um biological brothers.

[55:24] Jessica: Brothers, yeah. It's it's Kurt singing to Blaine who's hosp not hospital, but in a bed.

[55:33] Andrew McGuire: In a bed. In a bed Blaine singing to Kurt in a bed.

[55:38] Allison Todge: So in a bed. And both of them slap, I'll say that.

[55:40] Andrew McGuire: Okay. We still have Ben left. Jessica, what do we think about Ben?

[55:45] Jessica: I mean it's fine.

[55:48] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[55:49] Jessica: I feel like I am just like not loving the things that you're loving today. And that's very out of character for me.

[55:54] Andrew McGuire: But no, but you're the week. I mean, you know, there's still so many like stellar songs left. Um Yeah. Ben's Ben's good. Ben's good. But we're we're rooting for something. You're we're waiting for it to be great.

[56:08] Jessica: We're waiting. We're waiting.

[56:09] Andrew McGuire: You're good. I'm waiting for you to be great. Um, we're gonna know exactly what this song is immediately. It's stereo hearts.

[56:18] Allison Todge: Yep. Oh, okay. All right. Well, we're the god squad and we're the god squad. Valentine from one thin head sink.

[56:25] ♪ Musical number: "Stereo Hearts" — performed by the God Squad ♪

[58:36] Andrew McGuire: Not the sound I thought I was gonna hear at the end of that song. I thought it was gonna be here.

[58:40] Allison Todge: Yeah! Um did anybody see Marley?

[58:44] Jessica: Oh I didn't see Marley in this one!

[58:46] Andrew McGuire: No.

[58:47] Jessica: You didn't see Marley in this?

[58:49] Allison Todge: Oh, there she is. She's right there.

[58:50] Andrew McGuire: That's not Marley.

[58:51] Jessica: You had no second.

[58:53] Allison Todge: No, that's that's her. I think that's her.

[58:55] Andrew McGuire: No. There's a better shot of Mowerman. There's one.

[59:00] Jessica: There she is!

[59:01] Allison Todge: Okay, that's that's not her. That's a Marley fit.

[59:04] Andrew McGuire: That is a Marley fit. Look at the hair.

[59:07] Jessica: Are we trying to find Marley in every single performance now?

[59:10] Andrew McGuire: Yes. We will now.

[59:12] Allison Todge: Or is she right there? I feel like that's more of Marley in the back.

[59:15] Jessica: That could be Marley.

[59:16] Andrew McGuire: That's Ryan Murphy first.

[59:18] Allison Todge: That is so oh my god. Can you please this needs to be part of the carousel?

[59:21] Andrew McGuire: You pointing out. I'm screenshotting it right now. Marley one, Marley two, and Ryan Murphy.

[59:30] Jessica: Wow.

[59:31] Allison Todge: Oh god.

[59:33] Andrew McGuire: Oh, good. That's who they are. That's a good song. And I I really do love.

[59:38] Jessica: Yeah, it's fun. It's very fun.

[59:40] Andrew McGuire: It's very fun.

[59:42] Jessica: We love it. I I love Rachel smelling a chocolate rose. That's you know, Rachel.

[59:47] Andrew McGuire: Right. Dumbass.

[59:50] Jessica: Yeah. Stupid idiot.

[59:54] Andrew McGuire: And let's all pretend that Rachel would just sit there quietly while people sing at her.

[59:59] Jessica: Let's pretend that she was.

[1:00:00] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, she's like, who is this?

[1:00:02] Jessica: Yeah.

[1:00:02] Andrew McGuire: She's not like harmonizing in the background like find out, do anybody.

[1:00:07] Jessica: She'd be like, Quinn, why don't you take a seat and I'll step in? Um, I don't there is like a big um contention on like glu the glee wiki on the glee interwebs. Is Quinn actually singing in this song?

[1:00:21] Andrew McGuire: I did not hear Quinn ever, but she's there and she's mouthing along. But I don't think Diana Egron is on this track.

[1:00:28] Jessica: No, I don't think so either.

[1:00:31] Andrew McGuire: She's doing the this is what Quinn does. So like Rachel has Rachel has things that she does with her arms. Santana does things with her arms. This is what this is what Quinn does. Audio medium. She does the Okay.

[1:00:44] Jessica: Wait, so Audio Medium, she has her hand up like as if she's like wanting to ask a question and she's like sort of like pulsing forward. But this hand is like on somebody else, or it's on something like and then like leaning back and forth, like just bopping back and forth. Like just kind of stomping my foot, like Wow.

[1:01:04] Andrew McGuire: That's that's what Quinn does in every single goddamn fucking performance. And you know what? Every time she looks so gorgeous when she does that, I love it.

[1:01:07] Jessica: She does.

[1:01:11] Andrew McGuire: Well, she is beautiful, Diana's beautiful. Do we feel like that's like a like a youth church kind of like dance move, you know?

[1:01:19] Jessica: A little bit. It could be, yeah.

[1:01:22] Allison Todge: Yeah, vacation Bible study.

[1:01:24] Andrew McGuire: Yes, that's the vibe I'm getting.

[1:01:26] Jessica: Yeah. Wait, does anybody know this song? Every step uh take a taken you. You on my way, Jesus. And then there was another one that went, nah na na na na na na na na na na na.

[1:01:41] Andrew McGuire: Maybe this is the same song. I don't know.

[1:01:43] Jessica: I think that's the same song, but yes.

[1:01:45] Andrew McGuire: Wow, that song contains layers from vacation Bible study. Anybody's vacation Bible study.

[1:01:52] Jessica: You don't know what vacation Bible study is?

[1:01:54] Andrew McGuire: No, it was over summer vacation. Um people would go to church.

[1:02:02] Jessica: It was like a summer camp through church.

[1:02:04] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:02:05] Jessica: Um but it was like a day camp situation. So it was basically your summer daycare. Uh so your parents could go to work.

[1:02:13] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:02:14] Jessica: But you'd learn songs and crafts.

[1:02:18] Andrew McGuire: I never went. Um, but I did learn the songs in the like two times that I went to church as a kid.

[1:02:20] Jessica: Wow.

[1:02:20] Andrew McGuire: I went to church long enough to uh get my Bible and get your Bible.

[1:02:33] Jessica: Do you get my Bible?

[1:02:34] Andrew McGuire: I I went to church pretty freak.

[1:02:36] Jessica: Wait, what do you mean? Get a Bible?

[1:02:38] Andrew McGuire: I was given a Bible. Wait, Jessica. At some point you're nodding along. Wait, what is this? This is like a thing.

[1:02:43] Jessica: This is a thing. Um Allison, did you go to like a Catholic church?

[1:02:48] Allison Todge: I went to a Methodist church.

[1:02:50] Jessica: Okay, okay, okay. So like Catholic, like twice removed, totally fine. Um this is a big thing to like I don't know if this is like a southern thing or like whatever, but uh I remember like kids would get like personalized Bibles when they were like, you know, it would be like a milestone birthday situation, so you'd get it when you're like 13 or something, and it a lot of times like you'd get like a cutesy one, you know, so it wouldn't look like the one you could get from a regular like church pew, you would have like one that had like a like color on the outside of the pages or something.

[1:03:22] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, there were like some sometimes there were like little illustrations on the inside.

[1:03:26] Jessica: Oh yeah, no, my I never my name was my name was written in calligraphy on inside it. It was definitely a milestone, like oh, you've gone to so much uh church.

[1:03:31] Andrew McGuire: You've gone to so much church.

[1:03:43] Jessica: Exactly. You've got 10 stamps on your little point card.

[1:03:47] Andrew McGuire: But the way that you're phrasing it, it sounds like it's just like you've gone so much. It's like it's not even like a quantitative amount.

[1:03:56] Jessica: Oh my god. I've been to church so much. Um that is so wild. You went to religious school and you don't know what vacation Bible study is. That's wild because you were just Bible studying all the time.

[1:04:07] Andrew McGuire: I was just I was all the time. Uh I guess, yeah, educationally Bible studying. But like it was I remember the day that I found out that um, and I'm I'm only allowing this discourse. I will let you know I'm only allowing this discourse because this is a song by the God Squad. Um I remember the day that I found out in high school that um that I guess what religion classes, it was like a different name every year, but religion classes were the same amount on our GPA as Jim.

[1:04:40] Jessica: And I was like, wait a minute, this doesn't even count as anything. Like this doesn't actually even serve us in the real world at all. Like, are you kidding?

[1:04:49] Andrew McGuire: It doesn't even matter. How many credits?

[1:04:52] Jessica: How many credits?

[1:04:53] Andrew McGuire: Thank you. I forgot the word. Yeah. How many credits?

[1:04:54] Jessica: How many credits?

[1:04:55] Andrew McGuire: We're not getting a lot. Um wild. I I was just thinking there. I was like, wait, what song did we pull that I'm talking about VBS right now?

[1:05:05] Jessica: Yeah. Um it's obviously a Samuel Larson uh song. This was Samuel's biggest song.

[1:05:12] Andrew McGuire: Oh, yeah. That's the production value behind this. Come on now.

[1:05:16] Jessica: Yeah. Yeah.

[1:05:17] Andrew McGuire: This was like and he never got a damn solo to his name, a Jolo, if you will. Because see, he didn't get a Jolo, so that is given to Jake, I would guess. Um Jacolo.

[1:05:28] Jessica: Jacolo.

[1:05:30] Andrew McGuire: But yeah, like this. I love it. And it promised more. I remember watching this episode and I was like, oh, I'm excited to see what they do with this character. And guess what? They don't do a lot. Um really excited about this character.

[1:05:47] Jessica: I was not. Well, I liked his voice a lot, and I remember like actually really liking him watching Glee Project season one. I was like, yeah. No?

[1:05:56] Andrew McGuire: Wait, he was literally past click the week, and you're literally scoffing.

[1:06:00] Jessica: I mean, on the Glee Project, I uh in our Zoom call, I love Samuel Larson. Big kiss, Samuel Larson. I love you so much. When uh but I was victim to the producers of the Glee Project. Because how they spun the stories on that show, they made him the villain and they made Lindsay Pierce the No, no, no, no. You gotta re-watch Glee Project because they made Lindsay Pierce and Alex Newell the villains, and Damien McGuinty and Samuel Larson, the um can't do no wrong.

[1:06:35] Andrew McGuire: Well, I don't know about that. I don't know about that because Samuel Larson stole Skatoosk. Skadooshkate.

[1:06:39] Jessica: Wait, so Jessica, we're saying a lot of words. Are you familiar with Glee Project canon?

[1:06:46] Jessica: I only because you guys talk about it. I have actually never seen the Glee Project. I missed out. I know I missed out. Like I I know it. There's still time that you can turn this around. It's such good content.

[1:06:59] Andrew McGuire: Okay. All right. It's insane. And you tell me if you think Samuel Larson was made out to be the villain because for so long Cameron Mitchell, his whole thing was God and religion, and Ryan Murphy was talking about having a religious character on the show, and then they boot Cameron Mitchell off, and all of a sudden Samuel Larson's like, I'm barefoot Jesus. Like I'm like, oh, where did this come from?

[1:07:20] Jessica: I mean, we're you've never spoken about this before. We're old enough to to uh see the signs. Jessica and also um all the glisteners, all the beautiful glisteners listening to this right now that are not familiar up to date with Glee Project lore. Um there was a person, Cameron Mitchell that we also had as a past league of the week that was like a shoe-in to win um Glee Project. Ryan Murphy wanted him on the Cameron Mitchell said, like, I'm actually going to uh quit this competition, and Ryan Murphy was like, No baby baby, baby baby, come back. And he was like, I really need a religious character on this show, even though we already had at that point Quinn and Mercedes, okay. Erasure. Um and and so then Cameron Mitchell was like, no, I'm actually leaving. And it was actually really iconic television, and then Samuel Larson won. And um I think the entire time we're old enough to realize now that this entire character was supposed to be Cameron Mitchell.

[1:08:13] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, and that's okay.

[1:08:14] Jessica: Yes. And that's okay.

[1:08:17] Andrew McGuire: I don't I don't know. Samuel Larson, I love you so much. Joe, the character, I don't really know if I love you. They didn't know what to do with these Glee Project characters. But I know. Um anyway.

[1:08:34] Jessica: Stereo Hearts is a very good song.

[1:08:35] Andrew McGuire: Very good. I am missing the um the yeah at the end though. My my legal note about this song, I know you were all wondering. My legal note. Um, so they are doing like uh songograms, whatever they're called, where they like sing, but they only do this for this song. Um and oh no, I guess they do Cherish Cherish Chipotana. Sorry. Yeah. Um and I think it's like five dollars that like Finn spends to s have the God Squad sing this to Rachel. And you expect me to believe that they hired an entire gospel choir to back this.

[1:09:14] Jessica: Yeah, come on.

[1:09:15] Andrew McGuire: I don't think so.

[1:09:16] Jessica: I don't know. I think they were kids though.

[1:09:19] Andrew McGuire: It was like five gospel choir kids.

[1:09:21] Jessica: You think so?

[1:09:22] Andrew McGuire: Did anybody have eyes on Amber Riley's mom in that performance?

[1:09:29] Jessica: Maybe not.

[1:09:31] Andrew McGuire: Um check it trouty I can handle that.

[1:09:34] Jessica: Check a troutie, I can handle that.

[1:09:35] Andrew McGuire: Furthermore, I just I wanna apologize for any skipping tracks.

[1:09:41] Jessica: I don't know the next words.

[1:09:44] Andrew McGuire: When you have to buy batteries, dead D batteries.

[1:09:50] Jessica: Don't forget about all the mixtapes.

[1:09:55] Andrew McGuire: They come and go like on the inner state.

[1:09:58] Jessica: Yeah, they do, don't they?

[1:09:59] Andrew McGuire: Oh my god, but it's over now.

[1:10:02] Jessica: Um I Jessica, I feel actually like really sad for you because we have another season six song, and it's like not even a relatively good season six song.

[1:10:14] Andrew McGuire: Um but here we are.

[1:10:16] Jessica: Cool, cool, cool.

[1:10:17] Andrew McGuire: Here we go.

[1:10:18] Jessica: Oh fucking still from Hurt Locker?

[1:10:23] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:10:29] Jessica: Correct that win.

[1:10:31] Andrew McGuire: Correct that wheel.

[1:10:32] Jessica: There it is.

[1:10:34] Andrew McGuire: Give the mouse a slab.

[1:10:37] Jessica: Step on the crack.

[1:10:40] Andrew McGuire: Break your mama's back.

[1:10:44] Jessica: Oh, when a problem comes along.

[1:10:46] Andrew McGuire: You must win this.

[1:10:54] Jessica: Now whip it in the shape.

[1:10:57] Andrew McGuire: Shape it up.

[1:10:59] Jessica: Get straight.

[1:11:00] Andrew McGuire: Go forward.

[1:11:02] Jessica: Move ahead.

[1:11:03] Andrew McGuire: Try to detect it.

[1:11:05] Jessica: It's not too late.

[1:11:06] Andrew McGuire: To whip it.

[1:11:08] Jessica: In the shape.

[1:11:09] Andrew McGuire: Shape it up.

[1:11:11] Jessica: Get straight.

[1:11:13] Andrew McGuire: Go forward.

[1:11:14] Jessica: Move ahead.

[1:11:15] Andrew McGuire: Try to detect it.

[1:11:17] Jessica: It's not too late.

[1:11:18] Andrew McGuire: To whip it.

[1:11:20] Jessica: A whip it.

[1:11:23] Andrew McGuire: I say whip it.

[1:11:26] Jessica: Whip it good.

[1:11:29] Andrew McGuire: I say whip it.

[1:11:32] Jessica: Whip it good.

[1:11:34] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:11:37] Jessica: The crazy part is like that was like contextually story-wise to intimidate New Directions.

[1:11:46] Andrew McGuire: Like that was the.

[1:11:47] Jessica: And they actually they look intimidated sitting in the audience.

[1:11:51] Andrew McGuire: They're watching this and they're like, oh god, what are we gonna do?

[1:11:53] Jessica: And I'm like, this ain't rehab.

[1:11:55] Andrew McGuire: This ain't Bohemian Rhapsody.

[1:11:58] Jessica: This ain't absolutely not.

[1:11:59] Andrew McGuire: No.

[1:12:00] Jessica: No.

[1:12:00] Andrew McGuire: This ain't your mom's mercy.

[1:12:03] Jessica: Your mom's mercy.

[1:12:04] Andrew McGuire: Your mom's mercy.

[1:12:08] Jessica: And Will thinks he actually did something with that performance.

[1:12:13] Andrew McGuire: The look back and he d and he cracks the whip.

[1:12:16] Jessica: Hate.

[1:12:17] Andrew McGuire: Yep.

[1:12:19] Jessica: No.

[1:12:21] Andrew McGuire: No.

[1:12:22] Jessica: And he's in he's endangering children.

[1:12:24] Andrew McGuire: Where where are the the harnesses on those women in hula hoops?

[1:12:29] Jessica: Where are they?

[1:12:30] Andrew McGuire: And why are they there?

[1:12:31] Jessica: Are they singing?

[1:12:32] Andrew McGuire: Like are the aerial dancers singing in that?

[1:12:34] Jessica: I feel like not.

[1:12:35] Andrew McGuire: I feel like Will probably just for spectacle.

[1:12:38] Jessica: Will's notes from previous vocal adrenaline performances was like, just make it a spectacle.

[1:12:43] Andrew McGuire: And he was like, cool, let me incorporate these things that don't matter.

[1:12:46] Jessica: Yeah.

[1:12:47] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:12:48] Jessica: No, this song falls flat on its face, first of all.

[1:12:52] Andrew McGuire: Weird choice just for a glee song.

[1:12:55] Jessica: Um I know.

[1:12:57] Andrew McGuire: We could have left this in the 80s.

[1:12:58] Jessica: I didn't know.

[1:12:59] Andrew McGuire: I mean like I'm trying to think of like a context that Whip It would have made sense as a Glee Cast version by Glee Cass.

[1:13:04] Jessica: Like could they have stripped it down and could they have done like a a cappella arrangement of Whip It?

[1:13:10] Andrew McGuire: Oh, so you mean pitch perfect?

[1:13:13] Jessica: They literally do that.

[1:13:14] Andrew McGuire: Wait, when do they sing what pitch perfect do they sing with it?

[1:13:18] Jessica: I think they sing it in the very first one when uh Skylar Aston and Ben Platt roll up to the treble channel.

[1:13:27] Andrew McGuire: You're absolutely right.

[1:13:28] Jessica: And uh Boomer goes Yes.

[1:13:33] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:13:33] Jessica: Yeah.

[1:13:34] Andrew McGuire: I would have liked that on Glee.

[1:13:36] Jessica: Oh, that would have been great.

[1:13:38] Andrew McGuire: It was different, different energy for sure.

[1:13:41] Jessica: Yeah.

[1:13:41] Andrew McGuire: Is anybody watching Boomer goes to Berlin?

[1:13:44] Jessica: I am like not getting a Peacock subscription out of like pure, like just I pay for enough subscription services.

[1:13:53] Andrew McGuire: You know what I mean?

[1:13:54] Jessica: But I there is Peacock content that is calling my name, so I might crumble soon.

[1:13:59] Andrew McGuire: Wait, is it like Boomer in Berlin?

[1:14:00] Jessica: Is that really calling your name?

[1:14:01] Andrew McGuire: No shade if it is.

[1:14:02] Jessica: No.

[1:14:03] Andrew McGuire: And not that one particularly, but would I watch it if I had Peacock?

[1:14:06] Jessica: Sure.

[1:14:06] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:14:07] Jessica: Okay.

[1:14:07] Andrew McGuire: I do have Peacock.

[1:14:09] Jessica: So maybe I do want to watch Boomer in Berlin.

[1:14:12] Andrew McGuire: I don't fucking know.

[1:14:12] Jessica: I never saw Pitch Perfect 3.

[1:14:14] Andrew McGuire: Do I need to?

[1:14:15] Jessica: Pitch Perfect 3 is better than Pitch Perfect 2.

[1:14:18] Andrew McGuire: Stop saying that!

[1:14:19] Jessica: I'm allowed to say Skyton isn't there.

[1:14:22] Andrew McGuire: Skylarson isn't there in neither is Bumper, which is so weird to me that they're making a spin-off.

[1:14:27] Jessica: Boomer Bumper?

[1:14:29] Andrew McGuire: Wait.

[1:14:30] Jessica: Did you call him Boomer?

[1:14:31] Andrew McGuire: I call him Boomer, but I think his name's Bumper.

[1:14:33] Jessica: Bumper.

[1:14:34] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:14:35] Jessica: So I'm like, it's weird to make a spinoff about a character that wasn't even in the third installment.

[1:14:42] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:14:44] Jessica: I think he was in the third one because he was like a series regular on Modern Family by then.

[1:14:49] Andrew McGuire: Oh, that's so true.

[1:14:51] Jessica: We did Sarah Highland.

[1:14:52] Andrew McGuire: And I remember people were big mad that Sarah Hyland didn't end up with him in the finale.

[1:14:58] Jessica: Yeah, big mad.

[1:14:59] Andrew McGuire: Sarah Highland hosts Love Island also on Peacock.

[1:15:03] Jessica: She gets a credit every single goddamn episode as the host.

[1:15:07] Andrew McGuire: She shows up for five minutes every s 10 episodes.

[1:15:11] Jessica: Good for her.

[1:15:12] Andrew McGuire: She's like, Hi, Islanders!

[1:15:14] Jessica: What's going on?

[1:15:15] Andrew McGuire: We're gonna do a recoupling.

[1:15:17] Jessica: And then she leaves.

[1:15:18] Andrew McGuire: I love Sarah Highland.

[1:15:20] Jessica: She's great.

[1:15:21] Andrew McGuire: She's uh she's gorgeous.

[1:15:22] Jessica: I love her.

[1:15:24] Andrew McGuire: Did you guys see her in That's My Jam coupled up with um?

[1:15:27] Jessica: Darren Criss!

[1:15:29] Andrew McGuire: Yes, I did.

[1:15:30] Jessica: Thank you for bringing it back to Glee.

[1:15:32] Andrew McGuire: I was waiting for someone.

[1:15:33] Jessica: Thank you for that.

[1:15:34] Andrew McGuire: You're welcome.

[1:15:35] Jessica: That was good.

[1:15:35] Andrew McGuire: Wow, that's so beautiful.

[1:15:36] Jessica: I did watch that performance.

[1:15:38] Andrew McGuire: Um because every Darren Criss content, my parents have to be like, Allie, it's Darren!

[1:15:43] Jessica: Come on!

[1:15:44] Andrew McGuire: Come on, come on.

[1:15:45] Jessica: And my mom has to be like, Wow, Darren's really jumped the shark, hasn't he?

[1:15:49] Andrew McGuire: Oh my god!

[1:15:50] Jessica: Wait, my parents love to use that term too, and it's like stop using this term as if it's like you just discovered it.

[1:15:58] Andrew McGuire: I hate it.

[1:15:59] Jessica: But I do think has Darren Criss jumped the shark, yes or no.

[1:16:03] Andrew McGuire: In what way?

[1:16:06] Jessica: I I don't know.

[1:16:09] Andrew McGuire: He's too LA for me now.

[1:16:10] Jessica: Oh my god.

[1:16:11] Andrew McGuire: He's too LA.

[1:16:13] Jessica: Come on, Darren Stamp Granny.

[1:16:15] Andrew McGuire: Listen, you can't call yourself a blind stand and then be like, has Darren Criss jumped the shark?

[1:16:19] Jessica: I'm just saying.

[1:16:19] Andrew McGuire: I loved that man.

[1:16:21] Jessica: I dedicated a good 10 years of my goddamn fucking life to that man.

[1:16:24] Andrew McGuire: I want to know the 10 years.

[1:16:26] Jessica: I want to know the beginning of the 10 years and the end.

[1:16:26] Andrew McGuire: The beginning of the 10 years is 2009 when a very potter musical came out.

[1:16:34] Jessica: So in 2019?

[1:16:36] Andrew McGuire: 2019.

[1:16:37] Jessica: I stopped being in love with that man.

[1:16:38] Andrew McGuire: Okay, wait.

[1:16:39] Jessica: So where where were you though the Friday that this episode aired?

[1:16:45] Andrew McGuire: Where were you?

[1:16:46] Jessica: Because I'm pretty sure Darren Criss was in this episode.

[1:16:49] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:16:50] Jessica: Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

[1:16:53] Andrew McGuire: I was also deep in the trenches of One Direction Fandom.

[1:16:56] Jessica: Okay, you cannot discredit that.

[1:16:58] Andrew McGuire: So true.

[1:16:59] Jessica: I can only be in one trench at a time.

[1:17:00] Andrew McGuire: I'm a one trench trench at the time.

[1:17:01] Jessica: Wait, so can we come I'm monogamous trench wise?

[1:17:04] Andrew McGuire: Can we like limit down?

[1:17:05] Jessica: I think a decade is so long, actually.

[1:17:09] Andrew McGuire: No, I did dedicate 10 good years of my life to that man.

[1:17:13] Jessica: You know what? Fuck it.

[1:17:14] Andrew McGuire: 14.

[1:17:14] Jessica: Because now you're in 2023.

[1:17:17] Andrew McGuire: Fucking still talking about his ass.

[1:17:19] Jessica: Okay.

[1:17:21] Andrew McGuire: But you're not even like.

[1:17:24] Jessica: I don't know.

[1:17:25] Andrew McGuire: I'm not in love with him.

[1:17:26] Jessica: But like I'm just thinking about him.

[1:17:28] Andrew McGuire: I'm sorry.

[1:17:28] Jessica: I'm sorry that you have to see us like this, Jessica.

[1:17:30] Andrew McGuire: I follow, I follow all of his content.

[1:17:33] Jessica: Who the fuck made a TikTok to for a night like this?

[1:17:37] Andrew McGuire: Who the fuck did that?

[1:17:38] Jessica: That was me, baby.

[1:17:40] Andrew McGuire: That was me.

[1:17:41] Jessica: But like, I'm just thinking about it.

[1:17:42] Andrew McGuire: Who fucking listens to every goddamn stupid song that man puts on fucking games?

[1:17:46] Jessica: Jessica has a really solid counterpoint that I'm gonna do.

[1:17:49] Andrew McGuire: Who listened to computer games?

[1:17:51] Jessica: Who listened to computer games?

[1:17:54] Andrew McGuire: Me.

[1:17:57] Jessica: Who watched American Crime Story?

[1:17:59] Andrew McGuire: Me.

[1:18:01] Jessica: Who watched the fucking Muppet special?

[1:18:04] Andrew McGuire: Me.

[1:18:05] Jessica: Okay.

[1:18:06] Andrew McGuire: But you watch American Horror Story and you also like the Muppets.

[1:18:09] Jessica: There is already a drive for you to watch these things.

[1:18:13] Andrew McGuire: I'm just saying, I'm thinking recently, as in like maybe like 20 minutes ago when you were like, actually, not while I'm around.

[1:18:21] Jessica: Doesn't really hit.

[1:18:22] Andrew McGuire: And who is singing that song?

[1:18:24] Jessica: Darren fucking Chris.

[1:18:26] Andrew McGuire: Wait, Jessica, I'm I'm so ready to hear your point.

[1:18:30] Jessica: Because I know you've been sitting on something.

[1:18:32] Andrew McGuire: Oh yeah.

[1:18:33] Jessica: No, I was just gonna ask Allison.

[1:18:34] Andrew McGuire: Didn't you buy tickets to like see his holiday show or something?

[1:18:37] Jessica: Yeah, I did.

[1:18:38] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, I did.

[1:18:38] Jessica: I thought you were gonna be on my side, Jessica.

[1:18:41] Andrew McGuire: I'm sorry.

[1:18:42] Jessica: I'm sorry.

[1:18:42] Andrew McGuire: It just came to me.

[1:18:44] Jessica: Yes, I did by that shit.

[1:18:47] Andrew McGuire: Guess who canceled it?

[1:18:48] Jessica: Darren motherfucking Chris.

[1:18:50] Andrew McGuire: So now we've come to the real problem.

[1:18:52] Jessica: He's a bitch ass.

[1:18:54] Andrew McGuire: You've been scorned by Darren Chris, that's right.

[1:18:56] Jessica: Also.

[1:19:00] Andrew McGuire: So many TikTok comments are like, that guy's an asshole.

[1:19:05] Jessica: Wait, Darren Chris?

[1:19:07] Andrew McGuire: Wait, wait, wait.

[1:19:08] Jessica: What what wait?

[1:19:09] Andrew McGuire: I sent you a TikTok a while back, and I was like, OMG the comments.

[1:19:15] Jessica: Of what the comments were all people meeting Darren Chris.

[1:19:19] Andrew McGuire: Oh, I don't remember this.

[1:19:21] Jessica: They were wild comments.

[1:19:23] Andrew McGuire: Go back and look at them because I mean, I do I love Darren Chris.

[1:19:27] Jessica: I love him very much.

[1:19:28] Andrew McGuire: I have never met him in person.

[1:19:31] Jessica: I would like to one day.

[1:19:32] Andrew McGuire: Um but the comments are not flattering.

[1:19:37] Jessica: Some oh god.

[1:19:39] Andrew McGuire: He he's just a sassy man.

[1:19:41] Jessica: He's a very sassy man.

[1:19:43] Andrew McGuire: Um I've been so far up that man's ass that I came out his mouth.

[1:19:47] Jessica: So when you were in there, did you look at not while I'm around?

[1:19:55] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, and Darren told me himself, yeah, not really good.

[1:19:58] Jessica: Not really proud of that one.

[1:19:59] Andrew McGuire: Wait, am I really proud of that?

[1:20:00] Jessica: Oh, wait, we're no, we're voting.

[1:20:01] Andrew McGuire: I was about to pull another song.

[1:20:03] Jessica: Oh, stereo hearts.

[1:20:04] Andrew McGuire: We didn't even talk about Whip It.

[1:20:05] Jessica: Whip it sucks.

[1:20:05] Andrew McGuire: No, I think we got we got a really nice segue out of it.

[1:20:08] Jessica: We did.

[1:20:09] Andrew McGuire: Stereo Hearts.

[1:20:10] Jessica: Stereo Hearts.

[1:20:11] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, I agree.

[1:20:12] Jessica: It's stereo hearts.

[1:20:14] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:20:15] Jessica: Oh god.

[1:20:16] Andrew McGuire: We're going into the third competition.

[1:20:17] Jessica: This is when I start to spiral everybody.

[1:20:21] Andrew McGuire: It's gonna be good.

[1:20:23] Jessica: Okay.

[1:20:25] Andrew McGuire: You have you have the song, and it's I have the song.

[1:20:28] Jessica: I'm excited to talk about it.

[1:20:31] Andrew McGuire: Have we referenced it at all?

[1:20:33] Jessica: We referenced it last episode, I believe.

[1:20:36] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:20:37] Jessica: Do we know what it is?

[1:20:38] Andrew McGuire: Well, I can see it.

[1:20:39] Jessica: It's in my life.

[1:20:44] Andrew McGuire: There are places I'll remember all my life.

[1:20:52] Jessica: Though some have changed, some forever not for better.

[1:20:58] Andrew McGuire: Some have gone.

[1:21:01] Jessica: And so remain.

[1:21:03] Andrew McGuire: All these places have moments.

[1:21:08] Jessica: With lovers and friends.

[1:21:10] Andrew McGuire: I still can recall.

[1:21:12] Jessica: Some are dead and some I living.

[1:21:17] Andrew McGuire: In my life, I love them all.

[1:21:26] Jessica: But of all these friends and lovers, there is no one who pairs with you.

[1:21:36] Andrew McGuire: And these memories lose their meaning.

[1:21:40] Jessica: When I think of love as something new, though I know I'll never lose affection for people and things that went before.

[1:21:55] Andrew McGuire: I know I'll often stop and think about them.

[1:22:00] Jessica: My life, I love you more.

[1:22:09] Andrew McGuire: In my life, I love you more.

[1:22:20] Jessica: Okay, uh, I'm crying crying.

[1:22:23] Andrew McGuire: I've got things to say.

[1:22:25] Jessica: Oh no, you're gonna be so mean.

[1:22:28] Andrew McGuire: Uh no, I'm not!

[1:22:30] Jessica: I'm gonna be mean to Darren Chris a little bit more, maybe.

[1:22:33] Andrew McGuire: Um I did because I swear to god he performed this at Northold Said Market Days in Chicago in 2011.

[1:22:42] Jessica: That was during your Darren Chris decade.

[1:22:45] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, that was during my Darren Chris decade, but I I just googled it and I was wrong.

[1:22:50] Jessica: Um but I love this song.

[1:22:54] Andrew McGuire: This is so freaking sweet and cute, and it does make my heart pitter patter.

[1:23:00] Jessica: Oh, okay.

[1:23:01] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, I I couldn't agree more. It's very cute, it's very sentimental, all the feels. Um Finn looks very concerned about what is next, but we know.

[1:23:13] Andrew McGuire: Yeah. Um, we got some sugar matta content. We're here for the sugar moda content of it all. Crying, yes. Over people that she probably doesn't even remember their name. Let's be real. No. It's great. Always. I love her for it. As always. Um, yeah, I remember a few months ago, I had the really genius idea to pre-game to go out alone. No, I was pregaming to go to a party, but I was pre-gaming alone at home, and I was like, okay, let me just put on season three, episode 22, Goodbye. No. And I remember when this song came on, I was weeping. Like this, like this song. Why do you do that? I was just like, oh, I haven't watched Goodbye in a while. I know what the streets are saying, and the streets are saying, yeah, this episode will make you cry.

I think that I was a tough Gleek and that I could overcome it, but no, I couldn't. Um, actually, I'm a little baby Gleek, and I was crying watching this. This was the tear jerker. Not Roots Before Branches, not any other part of the finale. Um, it's this. It's in my life, um, which also wasn't included in the graduation album. I okay. Okay. Why? It was in the graduation episode. I don't get it. I don't get it. Make it make sense. Make it make sense. Also, um, saw a tweet on Twitter this morning um that was a Blaine, a blue jacket Blaine appreciation tweet. Um, one of the two of the pictures that they use is from this performance, Blue Jacket Blaine. Blue Jacket Blaine Appreciation. I love Blue Jacket Blaine.

Love this song. I think it's true to the original. My one anecdote is that I was walking into a bar with a friend the other night, and it's kind of an Irish pub style bar. It's our new favorite. I don't know why. Um, but it just got his cheap drinks, and there's always live music. And I walk in, and this solo guy with a trumpet player is singing this song, and his little child is there, and his child is like singing along with him, and it was beautiful. And I had to say they sang this on Glee. I did sing this on Glee. I love this song. This is a good, a very I think they did very well choosing the end songs for these two episodes. I have no notes.

[1:25:49] Jessica: Yeah. Um, notes. And our number again point of contention on the Glee Wiki was who's actually singing in this number? Does anybody have a guess of who's credited as singing this song? I can hear Sam and Artie.

[1:26:04] Jessica: And Blaine. And I do think there are Tina vocals in there. Okay. So this number is actually a duet. And you named two of the vocalists. It's Sam and Tina. It's the only Sam and Tina duet of the series. Wow. Yeah. I remember like there was like a whole like science to it. They really stripped it down and they were like, okay, you can clearly hear that it's only two voices. I think it's like they're singing just over each other, like most of the time. Like that one song with Finn and Quinn.

[1:26:42] Andrew McGuire: I don't want to know.

[1:26:44] Jessica: I don't want to know the reasons why.

[1:26:46] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, yeah.

[1:26:48] Jessica: I don't look down on Alan. But I love this. I do love this. This is very beautiful to me. Very, very gorgeous to me. And I really want an even more I would I would sacrifice this song. I'm I'm I know that I'm saying I really love this song, but I would sacrifice this song for like a big song. If it was a Faithfully or Somewhere We Go Sometimes. Like I just want something for Jessica. That's what I'm that's how I'm viewing the Glackett tonight.

[1:27:17] Andrew McGuire: Okay. I have it. This is a fun competition. It's not a big song. It's a big song, but like not a song that we referenced tonight. A song that maybe we forgot about.

[1:27:29] Jessica: We haven't referenced it a lot. Um, what are you saying?

[1:27:35] Andrew McGuire: I'm just saying that I think this will be a really fun competition. And we will know exactly. You just relax. We know it.

[1:27:45] Jessica: Slave Britney.

[1:27:59] Andrew McGuire: All you people look at me like I'm a little girl. But did you ever think it'd be okay for me to step into this world?

[1:28:08] Jessica: Oh saying little girl, don't step into the club. Well, I'm just trying to find out why, cause dance is what I love.

[1:28:20] Andrew McGuire: Do you like it?

[1:28:23] Jessica: Oh, I slay for you.

[1:28:30] Andrew McGuire: I cannot hold it.

[1:28:32] Jessica: I cannot control it.

[1:28:36] Andrew McGuire: Slay for you.

[1:28:39] Jessica: I won't deny it. I'm not sure I'm behind it.

[1:28:43] Andrew McGuire: I know I may come off quiet, may come off shy.

[1:28:47] Jessica: But I feel like talk a feel at dancing when I see this guy.

[1:28:52] Andrew McGuire: What's practical and logical?

[1:28:54] Jessica: What the hell?

[1:28:55] Andrew McGuire: Who cares?

[1:28:56] Jessica: All I know is I'm so happy when you dance in there.

[1:29:02] Andrew McGuire: Don't you wanna dance upon me?

[1:29:06] Jessica: It's next to you.

[1:29:07] Andrew McGuire: Another time and place.

[1:29:09] Jessica: Oh prepare.

[1:29:11] Andrew McGuire: Don't you wanna dance her pony?

[1:29:15] Jessica: Are you ready?

[1:29:15] Andrew McGuire: Leave him behind Monday Munday.

[1:29:18] Jessica: Getting it.

[1:29:21] Andrew McGuire: Can I get it?

[1:29:21] Jessica: Oh, can I get it?

[1:29:22] Andrew McGuire: Can I get it?

[1:29:23] Jessica: Get it.

[1:29:23] Andrew McGuire: Can't I get it?

[1:29:30] Jessica: Okay, we go now.

[1:29:31] Andrew McGuire: I cannot vote it.

[1:29:33] Jessica: I cannot get it.

[1:29:44] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:29:45] Jessica: Like that.

[1:29:46] Andrew McGuire: This might be the hardest competition.

[1:29:49] Jessica: Oh.

[1:29:51] Andrew McGuire: This is like Wait, yeah.

[1:29:54] Jessica: For me.

[1:29:56] Andrew McGuire: Okay, wait, wait, wait.

[1:29:58] Jessica: For me!

[1:29:59] Andrew McGuire: I do think this is one of the better Brittany covers on the show. Um, I think the MP4 slays.

[1:30:08] Jessica: But if we're being honest, is it one of the best songs on Glee? Probably not for me.

[1:30:15] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:30:16] Jessica: Okay. She sang it on tour.

[1:30:19] Andrew McGuire: She sang it in Glee 3D.

[1:30:20] Jessica: Her boobs?

[1:30:21] Andrew McGuire: We're in 3D.

[1:30:22] Jessica: Boobies.

[1:30:23] Andrew McGuire: Well.

[1:30:24] Jessica: Damn Nikki, you're Bobbies.

[1:30:25] Andrew McGuire: Damn Brittany, you're Bobbies.

[1:30:28] Jessica: I mean, she looks phenomenal. She's an excellent dancer. This we know.

[1:30:31] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:30:33] Jessica: Um, and I do think her voice is really well suited to this song. Like, I do think she does it justice.

[1:30:39] Andrew McGuire: Yes, I would agree with that.

[1:30:41] Jessica: I do love I I'm just like kind of caught in a trance because I'm like, both of these songs in my life, and I'm a slave for you, two diametrically different songs, obviously. But like arts, both, like, I think if I were to rank all 666 songs on Glee, I think they would be so close together that I'm like, I am so unsure which one is better.

[1:31:07] Andrew McGuire: But I feel as though you know what you're voting, Alison.

[1:31:10] Jessica: But you say you're discourse.

[1:31:13] Andrew McGuire: But what I want to say, I really love I'm a slave for you. I think MP3, iconic. I think MP4, partially iconic. But what does make me uncomfortable, and it's always like not sat right with me, is oh, what?

[1:31:30] Jessica: What happened?

[1:31:30] Andrew McGuire: Oh, my computer just said can't update Chrome. And I'm like, okay, I didn't ask you to do that. Um, what always made me uncomfortable was the John Stamos of it all. I don't like Brittany grinding all over him. I don't I it's a dream sequence, I know. It still makes me uncomfy.

[1:31:51] Jessica: Um, I think I understand why you're saying that, and I understand that John Stamos is a full adult in Heather Morris is playing a child.

[1:32:01] Andrew McGuire: Um, but I think that we need to be viewing it through the lens of that's John Stamos, not even a character. Like that's like that's kind of like hilarious. That's part of the camp. That's part of the hilarity. For me.

[1:32:13] Jessica: So John Stamos gets away with it, but Will Schuster, Matthew Morrison doesn't.

[1:32:17] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, I'm actually I no, I actually am saying that. I'm doubling down.

[1:32:20] Jessica: Yeah, because I think it's like funny when it's like John I yeah.

[1:32:23] Andrew McGuire: Actually, yeah. Because John Stamos is Uncle Jesse. Like, and I think it's hilarious to put Uncle Jesse into a Britney Spears music video.

[1:32:31] Jessica: No, John Stamos rubs me weird. I don't I don't like him.

[1:32:34] Andrew McGuire: He he's giving Bradley Cooper.

[1:32:39] Jessica: Yeah.

[1:32:39] Andrew McGuire: He's giving Bradley Cooper, he's giving like uh I don't like I don't like him.

[1:32:44] Jessica: I get weird vibes from Bradley Cooper too.

[1:32:47] Andrew McGuire: That's a thing.

[1:32:48] Jessica: Oh, I do not like Bradley Cooper.

[1:32:49] Andrew McGuire: What do you have against Bradley Cooper?

[1:32:51] Jessica: He uh icky icky, icky man.

[1:32:55] Andrew McGuire: I don't know.

[1:32:55] Jessica: Why?

[1:32:56] Andrew McGuire: Jake Gyllenhaal, Icky, John Mayer, Icky.

[1:32:58] Jessica: Wait, use your words. I wanna know.

[1:33:01] Andrew McGuire: Um, I uh Bradley Cooper, it could be his he's just not that indie character. It could be the fact that he dated Suki Waterhouse when he was like 15 years older than her.

[1:33:14] Jessica: Um not uh icky. Just greasy man, greasy man vibes.

[1:33:21] Andrew McGuire: Is Leo in that category for you too?

[1:33:23] Jessica: Leo DiCaprio is definitely in that category.

[1:33:25] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, like I like these men are very, very famous, uh, but I wouldn't want to be in a room alone with them.

[1:33:31] Jessica: Wait, this is a larger conversation than an IAF, no problem if you don't want to go down this road. But can you separate their art, like their performances? Do you or do you sit down and watch a Leonardo DiCaprio film?

[1:33:46] Andrew McGuire: Yes.

[1:33:47] Jessica: Okay. You watch an episode of Full House and you're you're able to be like, I like this content.

[1:33:52] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:33:54] Jessica: Okay. But I think John Stamos's character always made me uncomfy on Glee. Like, I don't like his arc in Rocky Horror.

[1:34:02] Andrew McGuire: I think that's very weird.

[1:34:04] Jessica: He's trying so hard to be with Emma.

[1:34:07] Andrew McGuire: He is.

[1:34:08] Jessica: Yeah. But it uh yeah, it's very weird. I didn't I never really liked his I don't know.

[1:34:14] Andrew McGuire: I don't like his character on the show.

[1:34:17] Jessica: I've never really put two and two together, but just because you want Emma to end up with Will?

[1:34:23] Andrew McGuire: Or I mean, yeah. You're you you are a big Lemma girl.

[1:34:27] Jessica: But I think there's another I I don't know. Like this whole episode of him. Like, like I does he get in somebody's face when he when they're doing the teeth thing?

[1:34:38] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, like that's the that's the shot.

[1:34:40] Jessica: Yeah, I'm uncomfying. I don't like that.

[1:34:42] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:34:45] Jessica: No. We figured it out.

[1:34:48] Andrew McGuire: Oh, is it just because of dentists?

[1:34:50] Jessica: No, no. I'm like so desperate to figure it out what the what the root of this is.

[1:34:55] Andrew McGuire: Oh no, gives me some ishy icky icky.

[1:34:58] Jessica: Okay. Yuck yuck. Issy ishy icky icky yuck yuck.

[1:35:01] Andrew McGuire: Um, I love this.

[1:35:03] Jessica: Britney sounds No explanation.

[1:35:05] Andrew McGuire: But Brittany sounds amazing.

[1:35:06] Jessica: This Brittany is very good on this track.

[1:35:08] Andrew McGuire: I agree.

[1:35:08] Jessica: Brittany sounds good. I love the all the what they do, uh, the cinematography of it all. Like what's what's this TikTok sound?

[1:35:17] Andrew McGuire: I love the cin cinematography of it of it all. You know.

[1:35:21] Jessica: Um, I and I'm just I love. I don't know. I'm just like sort of like empty brain with this.

[1:35:27] Andrew McGuire: Oh, he's giving me he's giving me Jason Bateman.

[1:35:32] Jessica: Oh, we're back to John Stamos.

[1:35:33] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:35:36] Jessica: Oh, I'll never be able to unseat it.

[1:35:38] Andrew McGuire: Stop it.

[1:35:38] Jessica: Is what John Stamos's character gives in Glee.

[1:35:41] Andrew McGuire: Oh god.

[1:35:43] Jessica: You're not wrong, and I am really upset about this now. Like they've not really done anything wrong, but like, uh, just like You know that I know that you know that this is inappropriate.

[1:35:57] Andrew McGuire: Like that's exactly.

[1:36:00] Jessica: Oh, okay. So here's the thing. Like, I haven't watched Juno since I was in literal fifth grade, and I remember watching it and I was like, oh, I don't see a problem with this relationship. Because obviously the wherewithal of a fifth grader.

[1:36:12] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, you're in fifth grade.

[1:36:13] Jessica: And so, like, I am sort of like still on that mentality of like, oh, like I I need to rewatch it for it to be ruined.

[1:36:22] Andrew McGuire: In that movie, he's a creep, yeah.

[1:36:24] Jessica: Yeah. Major yikes.

[1:36:27] Andrew McGuire: But they were like, wait, no.

[1:36:29] Jessica: Should I say it?

[1:36:30] Andrew McGuire: No, I think that like Juno and Jason Bateman's character was like they were like vibing.

[1:36:37] Jessica: No, I can't say that.

[1:36:38] Andrew McGuire: I can't about a child in high school and a fully.

[1:36:46] Jessica: I'm sorry.

[1:36:46] Andrew McGuire: Okay, anyway. Um again, this is this is for John Stamos and Brittany's boobs were just vibing.

[1:36:55] Jessica: Okay, this was. Brittany's boobs touches John Stamos's face. They were just vibing. It was just a vibe.

[1:37:01] Andrew McGuire: But it was that was a dream sequence. What happened in Juno was real that part. But it still makes me uncomfortable. I don't I don't know. It detracts from the performance. My vote is for "In My Life." I'm gonna be real. You're blowing my mind because like I did not expect to agree with you so much on this podcast, Allison, but everybody got you.

[1:37:24] Allison Todge: Yeah.

[1:37:27] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, I think I have to vote for "In My Life" for the sentimentality of it all.

[1:37:31] Jessica: Yes, I agree. I'll I'll do the pity vote, even though I do want to vote for "In My Life," I think. I think "In My Life" is a better performance. Not better performance, but just I like it more. Carries more weight.

[1:37:45] Allison Todge: Yeah.

[1:37:46] Andrew McGuire: Yes.

[1:37:47] Jessica: Yeah, I agree. Oh wow. So okay that third competition always surprised. Off the rails!

[1:37:54] Andrew McGuire: Off the rails. Where does my brain go? Genuinely. I'm talking about Jason Bateman and Juno. What the fuck?

[1:38:03] Allison Todge: Oh.

[1:38:04] Andrew McGuire: Okay, to recap this episode, I have not while I'm around going through. Yeah. Yes. And with it, and "I'm a Slave for You." Staying behind. Whipping it in the first round. Got you whipped into shape. And you say jump say how hi. Um it must have been love staying behind. It must have been love, but it's over now, baby. But it is over now. It is over now. And then I have "Stereo Hearts" and "In My Life" going through to the next round of the Glacket.

[1:38:37] Jessica: Wow. What a crazy episode. Jessica, thank you so much for joining us tonight.

[1:38:44] Andrew McGuire: I want to wrap up by asking you a question that I've never, I've literally, I'm gonna be vulnerable right now. I've never asked anybody this question in my entire life.

[1:38:53] Jessica: Oh my gosh, what are you gonna ask?

[1:38:55] Andrew McGuire: Um I'm ready. I'm sitting down. If Glee was still on in 2023, what do you think they're singing?

[1:39:00] Jessica: Oh, that was really brave.

[1:39:01] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:39:02] Jessica: Thank you. Well, back to the notes app, because I have some ideas and some missed opportunities. Should I start with missed opportunities?

[1:39:10] Andrew McGuire: Yeah, let's start there.

[1:39:13] Jessica: Okay, the first one's gonna piss Allison off. Um "Daughters" by John Mayer. Sorry about it, Alison. Um, but I definitely see writers singing like "Daughters" by John Mayer. And actually, if we really think about the context of all of that, it fits, right? It makes sense.

[1:39:27] Allison Todge: Wait, a little bit.

[1:39:29] Jessica: What with the daughters?

[1:39:31] Allison Todge: I know that problematic John Mayer.

[1:39:34] Jessica: And probably problematic writer.

[1:39:37] Allison Todge: Yeah.

[1:39:38] Jessica: Exactly. But it's a beautiful song. So then the Swifties would tear them to shreds.

[1:39:44] Allison Todge: Absolutely.

[1:39:45] Jessica: Yeah. They'd come for you. Um okay, "I Don't Wanna Be" by Gavin DeGraw. I think I don't wanna be anything other than what I've been trying to be lately. Um, I feel like Noah Guthrie would have torn that.

[1:40:00] Andrew McGuire: Oh yeah.

[1:40:02] Jessica: Yeah, yeah.

[1:40:04] Andrew McGuire: And then Chad Michael Murray would have been there just in the room and explicitly just for fun.

[1:40:08] Jessica: Just for fun. Maybe he's like a sub, you know, he's Ooh, that could be good.

[1:40:12] Andrew McGuire: Yes.

[1:40:13] Jessica: Wait, he's the gym substitute teacher.

[1:40:15] Andrew McGuire: Yes.

[1:40:16] Jessica: And they're playing basketball.

[1:40:17] Andrew McGuire: Oh my god.

[1:40:18] Jessica: Oh my god. Oh my god, I need the cleavot. Oh my god, the green boot!

[1:40:22] Andrew McGuire: We're writing Noah in right alongside Lindsay Pierce.

[1:40:25] Jessica: Yes.

[1:40:27] Andrew McGuire: Yes.

[1:40:28] Jessica: Um, and then I am a big like punk rock girly. So lots of punk rock coming at you soon. "Thanks for the Memories" by Fall Out Boy would have been a cool Vocal Adrenaline.

[1:40:43] Andrew McGuire: Oh my god.

[1:40:44] Jessica: I was so scared of who you were gonna say that was gonna sing that. But Vocal Adrenaline is the correct answer.

[1:40:50] Andrew McGuire: Yes.

[1:40:51] Jessica: Thank you. Thank you so much. Um "All I Wanna Do" by Sheryl Crow should have been a Mercedes and Marley duet.

[1:40:59] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:41:02] Jessica: That's so pure.

[1:41:04] Andrew McGuire: Thank you. I'm not the only one. I'm not the only one. Yeah. Um, "Yellow" by Coldplay. I think Sam or Joe would have been great.

[1:41:18] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:41:19] Jessica: It was all yellow. They were talking about Quinn. They were talking about colors though, so maybe Ryder would sing it.

[1:41:28] Andrew McGuire: Or wait, Rory.

[1:41:35] Jessica: Rory's just in the standby, like audio medium just shaking his head, hands on his hips, like, how dare you. How dare you sing a colors song?

[1:41:45] Andrew McGuire: Maybe Rory's singing it to Sugar, maybe.

[1:41:51] Jessica: Let's see, let's see. What else do I have in here? Ooh, I said a "Bubbly"/"Fallen for You" mashup. Um sung by Marley. Marley, that's a Marley girl. That could be fun.

[1:42:01] Andrew McGuire: That could be fun.

[1:42:05] Jessica: Exactly. Yep. Yeah, exactly that. Exactly that. Write it in. Um "Over My Head" by The Fray. I said Roderick or Jake.

[1:42:18] Andrew McGuire: Yes.

[1:42:19] Jessica: Right. Okay. Um, should I stay or should I go by The Clash? Should have been covered by Puck. I know we don't say his name, but as part of that Shelby storyline, that just plug it right in, you know.

[1:42:37] Andrew McGuire: Should I stay or should I go in?

[1:42:39] Jessica: Yeah. If I know I will make trouble.

[1:42:44] Andrew McGuire: I have to say all of your suggestions. I'm so sorry.

[1:42:46] Jessica: We love it.

[1:42:47] Andrew McGuire: We love it.

[1:42:47] Jessica: We're here for it.

[1:42:49] Andrew McGuire: We're here for it. Um, let's see. In too deep by Sum 41 would have been a fun like Jake and Sam combo.

[1:42:55] Jessica: Okay. I'm also sad that they didn't do like "Superbad" by Jesse McCartney. That feels campy.

[1:43:02] Andrew McGuire: Okay.

[1:43:03] Jessica: Yeah. I don't know if I know that one.

[1:43:04] Andrew McGuire: I don't know that one either.

[1:43:06] Jessica: Oh, you know that. Sing it.

[1:43:07] Andrew McGuire: By Jesse McCartney.

[1:43:09] Jessica: Wait, what the what are the words on Spotify? It's worth it. Um oh my god, he must make that hang on. We're pulling up the lyrics.

[1:43:21] Andrew McGuire: She's a mechanical.

[1:43:22] Jessica: She can't remember. Watch the way. She don't care at all. Wait, she's a broken oo. She's a classy girl.

[1:43:34] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:43:35] Jessica: Wait, who is this?

[1:43:37] Andrew McGuire: Jesse McCartney.

[1:43:39] Jessica: But who's singing it on the show?

[1:43:43] Andrew McGuire: Oh.

[1:43:44] Jessica: Hang on. I think I had.

[1:43:50] Andrew McGuire: Jake.

[1:43:51] Jessica: Jake would cover that. Jesse McCartney. Nobody said "Beautiful Soul" before.

[1:44:02] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:44:02] Jessica: By Jesse McCartney.

[1:44:04] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:44:05] Jessica: Yeah.

[1:44:06] Andrew McGuire: Who would be?

[1:44:07] Jessica: Nobody's ever said that.

[1:44:08] Andrew McGuire: Nobody has said that.

[1:44:09] Jessica: Who would be beautiful?

[1:44:10] Andrew McGuire: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[1:44:14] Jessica: Huh. Anyways. Okay. I'm gonna last one for missed opportunities. Why didn't they do an Elvis episode?

[1:44:24] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:44:25] Jessica: And they did two Elvis songs, which is like it's not a rights issue. Yeah. "Blue Christmas" and what? "A Little Less Conversation" and a little more action, please.

[1:44:36] Andrew McGuire: Which we could have left behind.

[1:44:38] Jessica: You know, like every time I think it's more conversation, it's not. Um, so new songs that they would be singing. Okay. I was obsessed with Lily Mae Harrington. I'm obsessed with the show that she's on now. Obsessed with her new song that she just released here for all of the Lily Mae Harrington content. So I had her guest starring, and I want a "9 to 5"/"Material Girl" mashup, and I think she would crush it.

[1:45:11] Andrew McGuire: Oh my god.

[1:45:12] Jessica: Speaking my legs, chaotic, but she would do it. That's incredible. Lily Mae Harrington, I literally will do all of your free publicity. I think that everything that you create is simply the best thing. Like honestly, all of her like her sound, her voice, the music. Um "Single Drunk Female" is honestly a top-tier television series that I see no one talking about. And Lily Mae Harrington is the standout star from that show. I'm sorry if to do Lily Mae Harrington plug, uh like two hours into this episode, but it is so iconic. Everything that she does. Okay, anyway.

[1:45:49] Andrew McGuire: Yep, yep. Couldn't agree with you more. Um Tina should have um singing "Without Me" by Halsey. I just feel like she would do it beautifully.

[1:46:04] Jessica: Um I'm trying not to copy things that other people have done. Um we talked about "Rainbow" by Kacey Musgraves.

[1:46:11] Andrew McGuire: Yes, I know you're saying it's Rory, obviously, right?

[1:46:14] Jessica: Yeah, it's gotta be.

[1:46:16] Andrew McGuire: It's gotta be. Who did you have written down for that?

[1:46:19] Jessica: It wasn't Rory.

[1:46:20] Andrew McGuire: Was it really Rory?

[1:46:21] Jessica: It wasn't Rory. No, I had Quinn, but okay.

[1:46:24] Andrew McGuire: I like I like Roy for the story.

[1:46:31] Jessica: Um let's see, let's see, let's see. Okay. All of their voices could, you know, you know that song. You're looking at me like you don't know that song, you don't know that song.

[1:46:45] Andrew McGuire: I it's not coming to me off the top of my head, but I do know that song.

[1:46:49] Jessica: It's like say you won't. Yes, you got it, yeah, yeah, yeah. See you know it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the one. Um then um "Snap" is like a big one that's like um I think blowing up on TikTok right now, but it's by Rosa Lynn, and I said Santana would have crushed it, but maybe Tina could do it now.

[1:47:17] Andrew McGuire: Wait, "Snap." Is that like that's an audio going viral?

[1:47:20] Jessica: Yes.

[1:47:21] Andrew McGuire: Yeah. What's what's the audio?

[1:47:24] Jessica: "Snap." Rosalyn. Can you hear this?

[1:47:42] Andrew McGuire: Turns out people like.

[1:47:44] Jessica: Yes. What part is on TikTok?

[1:47:48] Andrew McGuire: As if it was really that easy for me to get over.

[1:47:52] Jessica: I think it's the chorus. Snapping one. Two.

[1:47:59] Andrew McGuire: Oh yeah.

[1:47:59] Jessica: Snap and one. Where are you? Yep. Yes. Yes. Yeah. I have heard that. I can see it. Who's singing that? You said Santana.

[1:48:13] Jessica: Um I said Santana, but maybe Tina.

[1:48:16] Andrew McGuire: Cause yeah.

[1:48:17] Jessica: Yeah. Yes. More good. More Tina. Not enough people are saying that.

[1:48:24] Andrew McGuire: Yeah.

[1:48:24] Jessica: Not enough people are saying that. She didn't actually sing a lot on that series now that I think about it.

[1:48:30] Andrew McGuire: Um I love. This is so great. I really love thank you so much for I I want to like seem as authentic as possible because I feel like I say this at the end of the of the uh end of every episode that I have the best time, but I don't know how to put it into words every single time. But we truly did have the best time with you tonight, Jessica. Thank you so much for listening to every episode and for spending um, I guess an hour and a half now talking with us about Glee. Um, where can all of the Glisteners find your your social Gleedia?

[1:49:02] Jessica: Yeah, so I am super basic and mostly stick to the Instagram. Um but I'm JS Williams17 on Instagram. It is private, but if the Gleeks want to add me, I'm here for it. Um you'll see a lot of uh dog slash bookslash gardening content on that Instagram. So if any of that's for you, then let's let's be friends.

[1:49:26] Andrew McGuire: Love that bow. Hell yeah.

[1:49:27] Jessica: Hell yeah.

[1:49:28] Andrew McGuire: That's amazing. Hell yeah. Jessica, this was amazing. I love uh I say this all the time, but it's so true. I love ending a recording with my cheeks hurting.

[1:49:36] Jessica: Yeah.

[1:49:39] Andrew McGuire: Because I've been smiling and laughing so much that I've got TMJ now. So um please don't dump me for that. You'll be getting my health insurance. This is on you. Um Jessica, to end the episode, we're gonna say bye in our most annoying voices after one, which I realized we did not do last episode.

[1:50:02] Jessica: What do you mean?

[1:50:04] Andrew McGuire: Did we say bye at the end of the episode?

[1:50:06] Jessica: I don't think we did.

[1:50:07] Andrew McGuire: Oh no, we no, we didn't because it was just us.

[1:50:09] Jessica: It was just us two, yeah.
