[0:00] Andrew: We've got a mission to find the best song that's ever been on Glee. There's no reason to it, so don't get mad at me. The Gleek of the Week who's the head on the show. Glacket by Glacket. We'll rank everyone. Closer to spot number one. Gleek of the week. Gleek click click of the week. It's click, click of the week. Oh my god. I feel like I am in Glacket Heaven right now because I am joined by two previous Gleeks of the Week from round one that I feel like have asserted themselves to a next level of not only Gleek, but just Glackett lover.

[1:03] Andrew: I don't know. I don't even know. The creator, let's start off with the creator of Emily's rule. You know her. Oh boy. Obviously. It's Emily. Emily, how are you doing?

[1:13] Emily: Hey. I am doing so well. A lot has happened since I've left spin on the pod, but still been listening every week, still loving it, still reaching out to you with all my hot takes.

[1:27] Andrew: Oh my gosh, we'll get into all the hot takes. You know that we will. Um, and then we always will. Also, someone that maybe I feel knows the Glackett even better than maybe I do. Um, Amelia, how are you doing?

[1:41] Amelia: I was so good, so happy to be back, so excited. I almost love the Glackett. I almost want to start. I sent you a message earlier today. I wanna start by talking about this spreadsheet that you've created. Do you wanna because last time that you were on, was the spreadsheet a thing?

[2:01] Emily: It existed.

[2:02] Amelia: It was not. So like basically the spreadsheet started because you guys had said on an episode, it was like we pulled songs from every episode of Glee except for one. And I was like, I gotta figure it out.

[2:15] Andrew: I remember which one it was. Do you?

[2:17] Amelia: I think it was "Tested."

[2:19] Andrew: "Tested" did not get pulled until the final few episodes.

[2:24] Amelia: Yeah. And then here we are. Incredible. That spreadsheet is something else.

[2:33] Andrew: It is in the best way. It is incredible. I was like, oh man, I'm gonna make a playlist with all the stuff. And I thought I was doing good work, but you are out here doing the work. Amelia, I will have to can we share this?

[2:49] Amelia: Yeah.

[2:50] Andrew: Okay, okay. This is public domain, um, Glim Formation. Um, so the statistics, can you like run through what you can share my screen?

[3:02] Amelia: Absolutely. Let me give you permission to audio medium. You're missing out.

[3:07] Andrew: Right, yeah. I have it pulled up so I can kind of like walk through it. So it started with every song on Glee, right? Like categorized by episode, and then it went basically is it going through on the Glacket and what Gleek of the Week episode is it on?

[3:23] Amelia: Right. So that's where it started. And then we get into the breakdown of Glee episodes and like the percentage of the songs per episode.

[3:34] Andrew: This is where we get crazy.

[3:36] Amelia: Yes.

[3:38] Andrew: Yeah, the lyrics. All the songs. Or like all the episodes. So I actually wrote down I went through earlier. There are three songs in round two that or three episodes in round two that have been kicked. So "The Spanish Teacher," "Lights Out," and "Opening Night" are like all those songs aren't going through. They're completely done.

[3:53] Amelia: Wait, so like "Lot Islap Bonito" was like the last straw.

[3:57] Andrew: Yeah. And then "Lights Out" was...

[3:59] Amelia: Oh, do you know that?

[4:01] Andrew: Wait, you got it.

[4:01] Amelia: Oh, I think "We Will Rock You" from "Lights Out," I want to say, which I don't even know what it was even doing in round two to begin with. Um, and then wait, what was the last episode you said?

[4:10] Andrew: "Opening Night."

[4:11] Amelia: Oh, wait, really?

[4:13] Andrew: "Opening Night."

[4:14] Amelia: "Greatest Star."

[4:15] Andrew: "Greatest Star," right?

[4:16] Amelia: "I'm the Greatest Star," just dead on arrival.

[4:19] Andrew: Wow.

[4:20] Amelia: Oh, and "Love Fool."

[4:21] Andrew: Right, right, right. Oh, yes. Wow. That's crazy. But I guess I don't know. Like "NYC" is in that episode. That's a flop.

[4:31] Emily: And then I like "Pumping Blood."

[4:37] Andrew: Emily, you have your hand on your chest.

[4:40] Emily: I love "Who Are You Now?" I just wish it was a solo and not a duet.

[4:45] Amelia: Obviously.

[4:46] Andrew: Yeah. That's what we're working with.

[4:48] Amelia: Yeah.

[4:54] Andrew: So what else did you find here, Amelia?

[4:57] Amelia: We just go, and then it goes by like round an episode or wait, seasons. Of like, you know, the season six numbers, like a little bit smaller.

[5:08] Andrew: Yeah.

[5:08] Amelia: Going through. And then by there's like a solos breakdown.

[5:11] Andrew: Okay, wait. This is um overall, they're color-coded too.

[5:16] Amelia: Wait, I'm an engineering student. Let's like put that context there.

[5:19] Andrew: I wanted to ask that. I was like, I hope that this is not simply going toward the Glackett, this great mind of yours.

[5:27] Amelia: This looks like something out of my college nightmares.

[5:30] Andrew: I mean, in the again, in the best way possible. Like that is a plus plus for sure, but woo.

[5:36] Amelia: Yeah, so I did round one, and these are all like locked because obviously they're not changing, and then round two, and then I was like, oh, let me do it overall. Because it gets confusing when you're like, oh, this percent of songs is going through, but then it's like not all of the songs, and it was bothering me. So we did all of it.

[5:54] Andrew: Okay. So how are we doing so far in round two? Like that's a heavy question, but I guess to your analytics, your Glanalytics here.

[6:05] Amelia: We can oh wow, we should put them side by side with round one, right?

[6:08] Andrew: I don't really know the best way to do that. We can just click back and forth and watch them change.

[6:13] Amelia: Oh, never mind. We're gonna get there.

[6:16] Andrew: Okay, okay. So it looks like what there was a lot of season two going through in the first round.

[6:23] Amelia: Yeah, a lot of season four staying behind.

[6:26] Andrew: And what's here?

[6:28] Amelia: It's a lot of season, but it's then it I like hate to get into it, but then it's like, oh, we pulled this many extra songs and like all these things.

[6:37] Andrew: So I mean, like, in terms I I what I found fascinating was that in terms of like characters, like Mercedes solos, Mercolos, sorry. Um, they are doing really well in round two, right?

[6:53] Amelia: Yes. Huge. Holy cow.

[6:56] Andrew: Yeah. All five are going through.

[6:59] Amelia: All wait, so which five have we so we've pulled "Ain't No Way."

[7:04] Andrew: Here, we can just look at this column.

[7:06] Amelia: This is wild.

[7:08] Andrew: So "Buster Windows." Um, what's this that hasn't been pulled wait this is not the most efficient way to do this "Hell to the No" is going through "Hell to the No" in "Ain't No Way," "Try a Little Tenderness." Right? Five "Buster Windows." Are we missing one?

[7:11] Amelia: Oh and then just going first I mean I like that but I feel like at the end of round one it was like Rachel had that many like it was like that many percentage for Rachel, right?

[7:45] Andrew: Rachel was apparently I can't read anymore was 55% and Mercedes was 54.

[7:45] Amelia: Wow down yeah and and Rachel has like thrown she's like lost a few solos this round so far she's lost love she's lost I mean I think that um "I'm the Greatest Star" was against uh oh my god why am I "Papa Can You Hear Me?"

[8:47] Emily: Hear me so Andrew, thank you blackout when competitions happen exactly because you guys will like reference back and I'm like I don't remember that competition happening Amelia you have you are fine you are in the clear that's okay you've done your homework for that fine wait so and then so Rachel is like kind of flopping a little bit in round two yes how the turntables.

[8:47] Andrew: How how the turned tables. Um I mean, speaking of round two, you knew this question was coming. Both of you. Maybe Emily, do you want to start?

[9:06] Emily: I do have, I actually have grievances. I did, you know, you know me. I have my round one grievances since I've been here. And then I'm getting myself there, maybe.

[9:17] Andrew: Okay. Hang on, let me get the notebook. Hang on.

[9:20] Emily: Okay. Um, so round one since I've been here. Um a couple of them were "Dancing with Myself" versus "I Love New York."

[9:29] Andrew: New York. I was thinking about that competition today. That is a hard choice.

[9:34] Emily: Yeah. They're both so good for different reasons, but poor Kevin. He's had so many solos not go through. I love a good Artie solo.

[9:42] Andrew: Wait, Amelia, do we have can we bring up a quick stat of how Artie is doing in Glacket?

[9:49] Amelia: It's gotta be not good.

[9:50] Andrew: One yes, zero no's for round two for round two. Round one was the one yes's ten no's.

[9:59] Amelia: Oh, it's never going back again, is the one going through.

[10:02] Andrew: Oh yep, yep, because my next grievance is "Dream a Little Dream" versus "Lose My Breath," which is just criminal.

[10:08] Emily: Well, "Lose My Breath" in round three.

[10:12] Andrew: Which is double criminal, straight to the case. Wait, Amelia, did I read that inflection correctly that you're happy that "Lose My Breath" is going through?

[10:20] Amelia: I mean, like low key yeah. I think it's a fun wild card to have in round three.

[10:26] Andrew: Oh my god. I mean, I do not jump in, Emily, but like I do miss "Give Up the Funk" a little bit, but like they're not to say they're both mid.

[10:39] Emily: Um, like in their own ways.

[10:41] Andrew: And I think "Lose My Breath" is a little bit more fun. Well, when I think about like "Lose My Breath," I think about like everything that it's potentially like competed. So in the first round it was against "Dream Little Dream of Me," which you just mentioned.

[10:54] Amelia: And then it was against "Give Up the Funk" in round two, which "Give Up the Funk" won over "Lucky" in round one.

[11:04] Andrew: So that forgot about that one. Which that that is crazy to consider that "Give" that "Lose My Breath" is better than all of those songs. Crazy.

[11:15] Emily: Oh my god.

[11:17] Andrew: Um that's nuts. Okay. What else do you have?

[11:21] Emily: Um so I have uh "Arthur's Theme" versus season four "Don't Stop Now." I'm uh that's my favorite "Don't Stop Believing."

[11:21] Andrew: Okay audio medium audio medium it's my favorite would I actually as a very active theater person would I sing "Don't Stop Believing" for a Broadway audition are you kidding me no but were you in the 2009 New Directions I think that you need to have that you need to have that pass check the check check the taste in my dreams I think you were there I think I saw it.

[11:59] Amelia: Thanks Andrew I was I was swaying in the background with with you know JBI I I feel like I feel like is season four's "Don't Stop Believing" generally the worst ranking "Don't Stop Believing" or is that season five.

[12:16] Andrew: I think they're gotta be neck and neck because it's Rachel versus Will, you know.

[12:21] Emily: Like it's I don't know, but you know, I know it's not not well received, and now "Arthur's Theme" is not even a thing, it's gone, but which I do enjoy it. It's a it's a great little bird back rack tune, but you know, I I personally enjoy the that "Don't Stop."

[12:36] Andrew: But here's one that might be you know, you might have my back a little on this one.

[12:41] Emily: I will always love you versus "Wanna Be Starting Something."

[12:45] Andrew: Oh, I'm totally with you on that one. Like Mercedes, come on, can she sing the freaking telephone book and I'll be in love?

[12:53] Emily: Yes, yes, right.

[12:55] Andrew: But the Amelia's statistics show. We've got so many Mer solos, and man, that's just such a good Michael Jackson bop. Can we talk about "I Will Always Love You" a little bit? Because I'm kind of glad that you brought this up because I've had I that was in the Kevin and Jenna episode. That was the final episode of round one.

[13:18] Emily: And I was I think the sole vote for "Wanna Be Starting Something."

[13:22] Andrew: Um I believe that I feel like "I Will Always Love You" is like good, but like almost like to a Mercedes level. It's like the the Mer solos are so good that for whatever reason that one I don't reach for. Does that make sense?

[13:40] Emily: Yeah, and I mean, is it is it iconic? Is it like Hersh Whitney's like the biggest?

[13:46] Andrew: That's the song, of course. It's the song, right? But um, yeah, that's it's out of if you had to give me 10 Mercedes solos, would that be in the top five?

[13:55] Emily: Right, no.

[13:57] Andrew: Three, no, nowhere near it.

[13:58] Emily: No, might even be at the bottom.

[14:00] Andrew: So that's a crazy statement. That's a without looking at a list statement.

[14:04] Emily: Without looking at a list, I feel confident without looking at a list.

[14:07] Andrew: Really?

[14:09] Emily: Oh, I don't think it would be like a fully at the bottom, but I don't think it would be in the top 10.

[14:12] Andrew: That's fair. It'd be scraping number seven or eight for me.

[14:15] Emily: Oh I think that like I'll I can it's just like so many of so many of them are solos. I think I'm mentioned. There's um see there's that's fair.

[14:25] Andrew: Like middle, middle.

[14:26] Amelia: Okay, that's fair.

[14:26] Emily: Tennis in middle.

[14:28] Amelia: I think it might be even lower than middle for me.

[14:31] Andrew: I don't know.

[14:32] Amelia: I think it's great. Obviously, like you cannot deny like she has the voice, but like she can sing anything.

[14:39] Emily: Right.

[14:40] Amelia: And I'm just like, that one for whatever reason, there's something in the chemistry that like it does not align with me.

[14:46] Andrew: And I'm so glad that you brought that up, Emily.

[14:48] Amelia: Well, and honestly, I mean, you listening to Jenna and Kevin, you know they are Amber Riley fans, you know, even without it being their friend, just so that was a hard one to pull with two people who know her personally and love her, and you know, all that.

[15:04] Andrew: Okay, I have one more for round one.

[15:06] Amelia: Okay.

[15:06] Andrew: So this is kind of a funny one. So, um, Gangnam Style versus To Sir with Love.

[15:13] Amelia: Also that episode.

[15:15] Andrew: Okay. So, Sir with Love, beautiful.

[15:19] Amelia: It's kind of boring.

[15:21] Andrew: It kind of bores me.

[15:23] Emily: Emily, you are starting this episode so crazy, girl.

[15:27] Amelia: I know, but you know what's even funnier is that that's my brother's wedding song and the Glee version too.

[15:33] Andrew: So getting really mad at me with—

[15:33] Emily: Yes, yes, of course. Walking down the aisle doing the ponies.

[15:40] Amelia: Oh, oh, oh, yeah.

[15:42] Andrew: Yeah.

[15:43] Amelia: But do you think Gangnam Style deserves round two?

[15:46] Emily: I do. I do.

[15:48] Amelia: That's cute. It's a bop, and I listened to it, and I mean, come on, Jenna deserves some credit for all the work she did on that song.

[15:55] Andrew: I think also aligned, Emily. Like, I like listen. I am not going to say that Gangnam Style is a better song than To Sir with Love.

[16:05] Emily: Is that what you're saying?

[16:06] Andrew: You are saying that.

[16:08] Emily: I'm saying the Glee version when I watch it and when I listen to it, I feel more things than I feel with To Sir with Love.

[16:15] Amelia: Which is a crazy statement.

[16:17] Andrew: I will say that I think in that same episode, the Kevin and Jenna episode, I threw a pity vote to Gangnam Style because like Jenna sounds great. Like there's like no denying, like she sounds fantastic. Obviously, like once you look past like the absurdity of it all, like it's still a bop.

[16:39] Amelia: And also Gangnam Style was like a hit for a reason. Let's not play around here.

[16:41] Emily: For sure, for sure. It really was. And that's I think why like I reach for it when I'm like, you know, I just need something to like put me in a better spirit, and I kind of laugh at the same time because I can see what's happening in my head.

[16:57] Amelia: Right. So, but that's just meme. Um, sorry, Colin, that's my brother. Don't get mad. Because I know you're listening.

[17:05] Andrew: Wait, Amelia, do you have any thoughts about Gangnam Style generally?

[17:11] Amelia: Like no. I don't know. I think it's like it was pulled last on the Glacket, and I think that that's like it gets this like iconic something, and it's true.

[17:21] Emily: It's true. I mean, if it wasn't going through, at least it had the iconic spot.

[17:27] Amelia: Right. Like that that was wild for it to be the last song in round one and to be pulled with Jenna in the Zoom.

[17:35] Andrew: Could have planned it any better.

[17:37] Amelia: Wild.

[17:39] Andrew: Amazing. Okay. So those are my round one grievances. Not too many.

[17:42] Amelia: I'm kind of not as many.

[17:43] Andrew: Yeah, yeah.

[17:44] Amelia: Too many.

[17:46] Andrew: What do you have for round two?

[17:48] Amelia: Okay. So round two starts real hot with Love Song. I am a Sara Bareilles fan. I wish they would have done so much more Sara Bareilles music. I've met her. I love her. She is. I saw her on Broadway. I just I am all Sara Bareilles.

[18:04] Andrew: So I'm really sad.

[18:05] Emily: I know you are too.

[18:07] Amelia: And Blame It on the Alcohol never won anything. Get her out of here.

[18:11] Andrew: No. Like, no.

[18:15] Amelia: Blame It on the Alcohol has the craziest history on the Glacket. It is so funny. It's such a bop. It's so good. And I love it. I listen. Oh, it's smooth. It's good, but like, girl didn't win anything. How are you still here?

[18:29] Emily: Nothing.

[18:32] Amelia: Well, I mean, okay. Well, are we—it's still like won the Patreon vote.

[18:38] Andrew: Right, because otherwise it wouldn't have gone through.

[18:40] Amelia: I guess. And I think I don't—what was it? I think it was against Poker Face in when like Alison and I were like bringing songs back. So I don't know. And I voted Poker Face.

[18:52] Emily: Thank you. Again.

[18:54] Amelia: Aligned.

[18:56] Andrew: I see you, Andrew. I feel like I'm gonna be alone in votes tonight.

[19:00] Emily: No, you won't be. You won't be.

[19:02] Amelia: I think I might. My problem I'm such like a Blame It on the Alcohol stan. Like I can't get over it.

[19:07] Andrew: Yeah.

[19:10] Amelia: That's okay.

[19:11] Andrew: The Blame It on the Alcohols. How are Blame It on the Alcohols doing?

[19:13] Amelia: Yeah. Um, let's see. Blame It on the Alcohol check-in. Two yes and two no. So we're 50/50.

[19:21] Andrew: The two yes.

[19:22] Amelia: I'm just like testing my memory here.

[19:24] Emily: Okay.

[19:26] Amelia: I don't think I do. Um, I know that like Raise Your Glass is not going through. Even though that it's classified.

[19:38] Andrew: That is like a number one.

[19:40] Amelia: We are currently, by the time that you're listening to this episode, the vote has ended. Raise Your Glass, I believe, is like tied with another song right now, currently on the Patreon.

[19:50] Emily: But hang on, let me get my—let me get my How to Be a Heartbreaker at 17.

[19:55] Amelia: Oh, how to—yeah, it's—and Raise Your Glass is at 17.

[19:59] Andrew: Okay. Which is like I'm like annoyed that those are the two. I'm like, this is stupid.

[20:08] Amelia: Wait, what did you both vote for?

[20:11] Emily: Uh, you go first.

[20:13] Amelia: I wait, I voted first. This is like I—you cannot ask someone who they voted for.

[20:19] Andrew: But doing it anyway.

[20:21] Amelia: My selection right now is Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend, Material Girl.

[20:26] Andrew: See, exactly.

[20:27] Amelia: I thought she'd have a fun little friend to bring back. I love her. I love her so much. But like also, like I think How to Be a Heartbreaker, like if it comes down to it in a couple days and it's like still even, like maybe I'll switch my vote, which I you know.

[20:42] Andrew: But you should—you still can.

[20:47] Amelia: That's like a perk of being a patron, yeah.

[20:49] Andrew: I'm like gonna—I think that'll be a last-minute decision. Like if my vote isn't—is gonna make an impact on How to Be a Heartbreaker over Raise Your Glass, I would switch it. But right now I'm staying with my good friend.

[21:01] Emily: I like that idea.

[21:03] Andrew: Because that's what I voted for. I think it's so silly when I see like the 1% for like what? Like Footloose or something.

[21:09] Amelia: No, Footloose has more than that.

[21:12] Andrew: Like Arthur's Theme has one right now.

[21:14] Amelia: Oh, well, yeah, exactly. Like, I'm sorry if you voted for Arthur's Theme, but like dead on arrival.

[21:20] Andrew: I'm sorry. Womp womp.

[21:24] Amelia: Oh gosh. Um, yeah, I'm sorry about the Sara Bareilles of it all. Brave is still yet to be pulled.

[21:32] Andrew: Love her down.

[21:34] Amelia: That one's a good one.

[21:35] Andrew: Yeah, yeah.

[21:35] Amelia: Not as much as Love Song, but I do love her.

[21:39] Andrew: Um, Emily.

[21:41] Amelia: Okay. Before we get into Amelia's hot takes, do you have any further?

[21:45] Emily: I shockingly don't. I don't have any, which is like crazy. But please, I want to hear.

[21:49] Amelia: No. I have two more. I have two more. And then that's it. I promise. Then I'll get off of the mic. Um, so this is one because I pulled Applause in my last episode, but I would have gone Promises, Promises. I'm a musical theater girl. We throw it through. And I know it's very—it's not as well known. And I like Applause. Obviously, I voted it through in the last round, but Promises, Promises just like gives me those New York theater butterflies. I don't know how to explain it, but I get it.

[22:23] Emily: I get it. I feel like Applause and Promises, Promises somehow live in the same realm, like area for me that I'm like, I can listen to both. And it's simply dependent on mood. But like I feel like if you—if I were to rank every single Glee song, I feel like they would be like within the same like minus 10 plus 10 area.

[22:52] Amelia: Sure, sure.

[22:52] Emily: I agree. It's very, again, kind of a mid versus mid. It's not a neither area.

[22:58] Amelia: Right. Right. Exactly.

[23:00] Andrew: Okay. Last one is Roots Before Branches versus Rehab.

[23:06] Amelia: See, a lot of people are saying this. I can't agree. Like I think Rehab is like that's—that's what it is.

[23:12] Emily: I keep forgetting like audio media. I'm—I keep like nodding and only—

[23:12] Amelia: I am too. If you can see the faces I'm making.

[23:21] Andrew: No, the thing is for me is I was not really a big Roots Before Branches fan when the show aired. I was like, what is this song? I've never heard it was okay. But when I listen to Rehab, I'm a musical person. So like I can hear how auto-tuned it is and they sound like chipmunks in certain parts. And it's—I know, I know.

[23:40] Amelia: So for me, that was one that I was like I would have voted differently, but I get—again, because I'm rewatching Glee from the beginning because that's what we do. And I'm in season one and I watched it recently and I'm like, I get it. I get why people love this number because it is the first sucker punch, right? It's the first—exactly, it's the first everything.

[24:10] Andrew: And like so it's—yeah. Listening to last week with Brooke on and That's What You Really Missed, like talking about this performance and learning that it was like originally like three minutes, but then they cut it down to two, but then the actual aired edit was one minute, which is like wild.

[24:31] Amelia: So I don't know. I watched it. Like I had to pause listening to that episode and watch Rehab again to see like how concise actually is this edit. And it's cute. It's a cute performance. Like they waste no time getting in, getting out, it's good.

[24:48] Andrew: Yeah, I completely agree. And it—I did write a lot of these before listening to that, and that really does give a new appreciation for that. Because it's like I can't even imagine. I mean, again, I've danced for many years, and I know what the difference between a one-minute and a two-minute and a three-minute number are. And I'm like, what? How could they learn? I mean, they just had to learn so much so fast.

[25:14] Amelia: So I'm new appreciation for them.

[25:16] Andrew: But yeah, okay, I'm done, I'm done, I'm done, I'm down as well.

[25:19] Amelia: Well, thank you so much, Emily.

[25:20] Andrew: Amelia, you have no—that's wild.

[25:23] Amelia: I don't think anything like truly upset me.

[25:27] Andrew: Okay, that's also fine.

[25:29] Amelia: You know, my I Still Believe Super Bass went through, so like we're all better.

[25:32] Andrew: Right, right, exactly. I needed to like—I think I messaged you after that recording, and I was like, Dear your girl, your girl's really doing well.

[25:40] Amelia: She's good.

[25:42] Andrew: Uh, she was like not looking good for like a minute there, but then I think Marshall was like, no, no, no. I understand camp when I see it.

[25:49] Amelia: Yeah.

[25:52] Andrew: Wait, I'm making this compl—180. Yeah. This, Andrew, you not watching Drag Race is crazy to me. You made a reference the other day to like the Alyssa Edwards club. Like, I think you would be so obsessed with it.

[26:08] Andrew: Well, I'm just like chronically online, so I know the references.

[26:13] Amelia: Right, yes, but I think you would like enjoy all of it. I was thinking because I was watching it the other day, and like I think it's kind of the same—there's aspects of the same kind of camp as I Still Believe Super Bass.

[26:24] Andrew: Sure.

[26:24] Amelia: That—that was the—I watched a few episodes. I don't know.

[26:28] Andrew: I would like—what even got you into it in the first place?

[26:31] Amelia: I have no idea. I just started watching it.

[26:32] Andrew: Yeah, like all good things.

[26:37] Amelia: Alright.

[26:39] Andrew: Like Glee. And here we are in 2024 on a Glee podcast on a Monday evening. Still talking about it.

[26:44] Amelia: Um, so Amelia, you have—you have no other things to discuss, which is fine.

[26:52] Andrew: Like no, yeah, I'm like looking at the list and I'm good. I'm feeling good.

[26:57] Amelia: That's good.

[26:58] Andrew: No, I love that. I think that like my untreated wounds are like no, I need to be told where I'm flopping, you know? But um, I'm really happy to hear this. I mean, going forward with Glacket things, round three, you knew this question was coming. Round three, what are we—what are we seeking for personally? What would you like to see? Amelia, let's start with you.

[27:26] Amelia: I mean, obviously like the hard-hitting iconic solos, like those will be there, like all the big rollos, Merzolos, everything. Yeah, I think—I don't know who said it when it was said Paradise by the Dashboard Light will be there till the very end.

[27:26] Andrew: Sure.

[27:26] Amelia: I don't know. I mean, I—the same with me is like, excuse me, I don't experience the same kind of like nostalgia as everyone else. Everyone comes on and is like, oh, this reminds me of this.

[27:26] Emily: Sure.

[27:26] Amelia: But I don't have that because I watched it—

[28:02] Andrew: Five years later.

[28:05] Amelia: I forget.

[28:06] Emily: What was—what's your history with the hit show Glee and where did it first come into your life?

[28:12] Amelia: Oh, it came into my life. Um, I was—I'm about the same age as like Kevin and, um, I'm sorry, Jenna and, uh, Lea Michele and all of them. So I was like in college, yeah, and a friend of mine was just like who I did theater with, they were like, you would like this show, and I watched the pilot, and I was like, this is my new everything. So just I got introduced by a friend, watched it with a bunch of other theater people, and now here we are.

[28:33] Emily: And now here we are. Crazy. Um, yeah, wait, so that's like I was really glad because that's what I thought was the case.

[28:48] Andrew: That it was like you like me, found the series while it was still airing, but then Amelia, you're unfortunately the odd one out here.

[29:01] Amelia: Let me just take a steak out of my heart, excuse me.

[29:04] Andrew: Different perspectives. Um, and we can we can bring a lot of different things. So um, Emily, what are what are you looking for in in round three?

[29:15] Emily: So I'm um obviously, you know, like for me, paradise is, you know, I really do love it. Um, but I'm I really do enjoy some of kind of those underdogs, like um uh I'm looking at my list, my own, you know, Glacket Lister, my playlist or whatever. Um The Bitch's Back Dress You Up is one that Say that exactly. Oh jumps out to me. Love, love, love that. Um, just some of these other ones, like like do up. Um that's one that I just love so much. And doo op to me. I'm like, she's in round two. For whatever reason. Love the original song. For whatever reason, like simply does not do a lot for me.

[29:58] Andrew: Really?

[29:58] Emily: I don't know if I'm like doubling down and people are gonna hate me because of the I will always love you and now the doo-wop. But like or safe. Both of those songs, I'm like, I I kinda expected more.

[30:10] Andrew: Sure, sure.

[30:12] Emily: I get it.

[30:13] Andrew: No, no, that's completely fair. And it's kind of an awkward part in the show, too, where it's like, well, let's just throw this in there, you know, something.

[30:21] Emily: Yeah.

[30:22] Andrew: But no, I get that for sure. Um, you know, I am like as is Amelia said that she just loves Blaine so much. I am a really big Rachel stan. I know that, you know. Um hopefully Connor hears this. Hi Connor, we can be Rachel's stands together. Uh, because you know, I'm not an apologist because she's a horrible, horrible human being, but um, you know, I just my favorite Rachel solo is my man, which is you know, obviously a lot of other people's and if that was if that was to go home, I think I would be pretty crushed. So that's that's a big one for me.

[31:00] Emily: What do you think could beat my man? Like what what would you put?

[31:03] Andrew: You know, maybe like a cough syrup, or really oh for sure, or a shake it out, which is another great one, or uh rumor has it, uh mashup. Yeah, um or even just like a maybe even like an like an original don't rein in my parade versus my man could be that's a that's a really fascinating matchup that I've never considered that's so scary to think about, actually.

[31:32] Emily: Or a pretty unpretty or a faithfully, which is my favorite Finchel duet, you know, just yeah, uh we're getting there.

[31:41] Andrew: Yeah, scary, but inevitable.

[31:44] Emily: Inevitable. Um, but on the topic of like Paradise with a dashboard light. I know that with like in the episode with the Ian and Connor, we talked about like we want to send it home.

[31:54] Andrew: In jest.

[31:56] Emily: In jest. Um but then like people people commented like on the post, and they were like, I cannot believe that you would you would want to send home my precious child, Paradise by the dashboard light. And like the comment, you you know, you know who you are. You commented it, and you racked up a lot of engagement on that post. And I'm like, I listen. Paradise with a dashboard light. I understand. It's fine. We were joking. We were using that as an example. I don't know. Come on. Please. I got the joke. I knew that you guys weren't serious on that. Media literacy. Come on. Please.

[32:33] Andrew: Um anything else that we need to discuss before we start doing the damn Glacket.

[32:40] Emily: I'm nervous.

[32:42] Andrew: I'm excited. I feel like the last few episodes were like not. We are have been really, really aligned to the point where I'm like, we need drama. It needs it needs to happen tonight. And I feel like we have so many different opinions already in this chat that's a good idea.

[33:01] Amelia: Yeah.

[33:02] Andrew: This has gotta be it. And then here we go. Okay. Is there a lid on the cup? Has there always been a lid on the cup?

[33:08] Amelia: There's always been a lid on the cup.

[33:10] Andrew: Oh my gosh. There it is. Um first song of the episode. It's a good one.

[33:14] Emily: It's good.

[33:17] Andrew: Are we partaking in Emily's role today?

[33:19] Amelia: Oh yeah, right.

[33:20] Andrew: Oh my god, let's talk about I Emily is here. Emily here. Do you have any? I we talked about this literally over a year ago. Right. The Emily's rule of it all. Where do we currently stand on Emily's rule?

[33:33] Emily: Well, the Emily's rule has kind of fallen by the wayside, and that's okay. Which it's never even needed to be a thing.

[33:41] Andrew: Yeah.

[33:42] Emily: But no, it's just it's fine. I some people, it seems like some people really like it, and some people don't care, and no one hates it. So you just do what you're doing, Andrew, because you're doing just fine.

[33:55] Andrew: I think, and I've maybe provided context for this before, but like Emily's rule simply, okay. Emily's rule for anybody not in the know. Emily's rule is when I give context for what the song is before we actually listen to the song. So the only reason that I do that simply is because I'm pulling the song out of the cup and I'm finding the file. So I don't want there to be dead air. And so I'm fill it. We'll fill it. Let them quake in fear. We have to do it. Run in my damn mouth.

[34:26] Amelia: Yeah.

[34:27] Andrew: We can discuss. We can entertain ourselves. We have the first frame. It's Mr. Schuster in Emma's office.

[34:38] Amelia: Emma's office, yep.

[34:39] Andrew: Yeah. Do we feel like we have a good idea? I'm trying to I'm trying to gauge it later. He looks older.

[34:45] Amelia: Yeah, yeah.

[34:47] Andrew: Oh no. I have no idea this first frame. I don't know. It is We Found Love.

[34:54] ♪ Musical number: "We Found Love" — performed by Glee Cast ♪

[37:26] Emily: Okay. We found love. Overall. First impressions. What are we thinking?

[37:31] Amelia: So I don't know about you, Amelia, but the audio cut out early in the song for my.

[37:38] Emily: Wait, what?

[37:39] Amelia: Wait, why do you say anything?

[37:41] Emily: Because you were recording. I mean, and I know that song.

[37:44] Amelia: Yeah, he was playing in my head exactly.

[37:46] Emily: Oh my god. I feel so bad.

[37:49] Amelia: It's not an audience.

[37:50] Emily: It's it's really not that big of a deal. Like the whole video still played, and then the audio cut out, and I was just like, there was a point where I do it. Like it was gone. It was going. It just went mute.

[38:04] Amelia: Oh my gosh. I feel I hope that doesn't potentially deduct points.

[38:09] Emily: Not for me.

[38:10] Amelia: No, okay. Because I know that song inside it now, because it's about. Um, what do we what do we think about Glee Cast version? Any first impressions?

[38:20] Emily: I mean, it's I think it's just so iconic. I think it's one of those things that like before I watched Glee. I mean, obviously, that clip of Kevin rolling the wheelchair, like, is everywhere. Right. It's the best. But yeah. It was something that I had like seen before I knew about Glee, and I think that just like so iconic.

[38:40] Amelia: I don't know.

[38:40] Emily: Yeah. I wonder who who got the wheelchair out of the pool because all of a sudden he's on the room.

[38:47] Amelia: I don't even think it's a floor.

[38:48] Emily: It looks like a whole chair.

[38:50] Amelia: It's a whole chair. But I remember like specifically watching this episode live and like seeing that, obviously for the first time of Artie rolling himself into the pool and then being so distracted by that.

[39:04] Emily: And they don't show Artie again for like maybe like a full minute later into the performance. And I'm so distracted by like I'm like, wait, is anybody gonna check on Artie? Because at this point I'm like, maybe maybe he's gone. Did he sink?

[39:20] Amelia: I mean, right, right. Can we can we do a little check-in, please? Actually, cut the music?

[39:28] Emily: I don't know.

[39:28] Amelia: Right. Um, yeah, I like this. The thing that always is so alarmingly apparent to me is that I'm so kind of like annoyed by Glee for like not bringing up the fact that like Emma is being proposed to at a public pool, and like no one even like makes like even like a comment about it.

[39:53] Emily: And it's crazy. I was just watching this scene, I think it's from Dance with Somebody later on in season three, where like Will and Emma are like planning their wedding, and Will's like, I want to have at this campground. And she's like, Oh, I can't have it out of a campground, I have OCD. And I'm like, you didn't say anything when you were at the freaking pool.

[40:13] Amelia: Right.

[40:13] Emily: So angry when he like he's walking down like the acrylic whatever. Like, why did he jump in the pool?

[40:19] Amelia: I wrote that down. I wrote why did he die?

[40:23] Emily: She't die. This is all like dripping wet. And then if you like watch, like they cut back and forth to him being like wet and dry from the scenes. But like just walk down. She doesn't like right. Like, she's not gonna kiss you. She's not gonna like, she's how is she sitting in that chair without disinfecting it for two hours?

[40:41] Amelia: And it's like also like I would give it, I would like uh um, I would forgive it if it was like if it was simply like an episode where like Emma's OCD is like not discussed, but like, yes, no, is an episode where like it's a major plot point where like Will goes to Emma's parents, asks for permission, and Will's uh Emma's parents are like think about like what you're actually getting into. She has OCD, like think about the children, all that. So it's an episode where like whoever wrote that episode is aware that this is a crucial point for the character of Emma, but like then they go to a public pool.

[41:21] Andrew: I don't know, I'm slamming the brakes.

[41:23] Emily: I I believe that. I mean, I I'm right there with you. But um, song-wise, I mean, I just love the Rachel Santana vocals on here. I mean, just I kind of wish it was a Santana lead song, but I do like the you know, the harmonies that she's adding, the riffs that she's adding, you know, near the end, especially, and their voices do sound really good together, you know. While we never got to hear him sing that much together, I I really do like the arrangement. But and I know that Kevin and Jenna just brought this up recently on their podcast, but like in the again in the Dance with Somebody episode, um, when like Santana, Rachel goes up to Santana's locker and was like, We've never sang a duet together, and it's like, no, no, no. Actually, like check the tapes. Like, like you actually already have sang three at this point, and like this one, this so emotional duet that you're about to do is actually going to be your fourth one. So I don't know. You're being a little Delulu.

[42:22] Amelia: So uh I like it okay. I the kids with the roses. What do we what do we think about because I have a personal headcanon about who they are. Do we have any I do we have any headcanon?

[42:37] Emily: No, I don't.

[42:38] Amelia: No, I'm really curious to hear yours.

[42:41] Emily: I always assumed, because like I had like a very parasocial relationship with my like guidance counselor in high school, that I think that those were like all these kids that were very reliant on Emma, and then we just like never were like privy to, you know.

[42:57] Amelia: Oh, they have a collection of her pamphlets.

[42:59] Emily: Okay. That's what I think.

[43:00] Amelia: I believe it too.

[43:03] Emily: That totally makes sense.

[43:05] Amelia: Okay. Maybe it's like obvious, and I'm just like bringing to light this thing.

[43:10] Emily: Yeah. No, because it's not like it's not like even like characters that we see recurring, like a JBI or you know, anything like that.

[43:17] Andrew: They are these random characters, but even though they mean nothing to us from our point of view, definitely would see that because she's she always talks about how she's working with all these other kids and work with kids, but you never see anyone but Will or the Glee kids in there.

[43:17] Amelia: Right, exactly.

[43:17] Andrew: From our point of view.

[43:34] Amelia: So yeah, I believe that. I think that's cool. I like that.

[43:38] Emilee: Um yeah.

[43:40] Amelia: And I also want to give a shout out to Thea's book again, Freaks Gleaks and Dawson's Creek, because while reading that, also promote, promote, promote. In the she interviews Vanessa Lenji's, who talks about the production of this performance and like how this was one of the few times that her and Leah were actually like friendly with one another, which I found so fascinating. And so I can't watch this performance the same again. So yeah.

[44:10] Andrew: Speaking of Fia's book, I cannot believe that you have not watched Freaks and Geeks. That seems very Andrew Coded, and it is very good.

[44:17] Amelia: Okay. See, I'm getting hit over the head with content that I apparently should be watching.

[44:23] Emilee: We decide for you.

[44:25] Andrew: Yes.

[44:28] Emilee: I watched 85 movies in the movie theater this past year. I'm a movie.

[44:33] Andrew: Wait, I did movies. Did you watch the Oscars?

[44:36] Emilee: I have to ask.

[44:37] Andrew: I of course. I saw that Emily, not to completely sidetrack, but you you did that you posted this thing to your story of like this entire like board of celebrities. What was that for?

[44:50] Emilee: So my brother, who I also spoke about, hi again, Colin. Um he is the he's also he sees so many movies. He loves movies. He knows every single best movie winner ever they won. And all the actors and actresses, he hosts an Oscar party every weekend. So my family goes there, um, some of my family who can and some friends, and we um, you know, watch the Oscars, and we kind of have like a whole weekend of it. And um, he put together this board, and whoever could name the most celebrities on the board won a prize.

[45:25] Andrew: Oh my god.

[45:26] Emilee: And we know your girl, you know your girl won.

[45:29] Andrew: Wait, how many did you get?

[45:31] Emilee: I got 79 out of 87 correctly.

[45:33] Andrew: Oh my god. That's wild.

[45:35] Emilee: I don't think I know that many celebrities.

[45:37] Andrew: I'm a pop culture, like that.

[45:39] Emilee: Wait, so wait, remind wait, so who made the board?

[45:42] Emilee: My brother.

[45:43] Andrew: Your brother makes the board. Okay.

[45:45] Emilee: So he just like gets people magazines. He's like is one of the few people who still has a subscription to like, you know, people or entertainment weekly. And he just like cut out celebrities that were like some of them, he had like a section of like the in memorium for those who had passed. And then like the people who were like nominated, and then he had just like other like actors and actresses and entertainment industry folks.

[46:08] Andrew: Wait, I'm really, really obsessed with this actually. Wait, so what did you was there a prize or just the prize of knowing?

[46:14] Emilee: Okay, what was the prize?

[46:16] Emilee: So my husband and I played on a team because my husband was like, I'm gonna lose if you know he but he did okay. So he did pretty good. But yeah, um, we each got like a like a like a scratch off lottery ticket.

[46:28] Andrew: Oh cute. You know, we didn't win, but I love it's okay. It was fun.

[46:32] Amelia: Yeah.

[46:33] Andrew: Um this song wins.

[46:36] Emilee: Yeah, sorry, back to that.

[46:38] Amelia: Sorry.

[46:39] Andrew: No, no, oh my god. I mean, I could talk about the awesome like I I loved it. It was great. I I loved, I mean, like, this is such a boring opinion, but I really did love what they did with the um past winners um doing I think that that's so much more effective than um showing the clips, which we've all like if I need to watch, no offense, America Ferrer. If I need to watch that clip one more time, I'm I'm done. Um so I'm glad that like we got like a Rita Moreno like um speech to at her. Um it was so personal and it was wonderful. It was really it was really beautiful. I loved it. I wish they do it every year, and maybe it will get tired and then we'll have to go back. But who knows?

[47:16] Amelia: Um talking. We Found Love. Which ways do we think that it could excel and which ways do we think that it's like flopping? I think it has like the iconic recognizable like funness to it, but I think it'll it could it could go either way this competition.

[47:34] Emilee: Yeah, it's got it's got the group number aspect of it. I don't remember who was on that said like they really, you know, the group numbers do well. I think was that Ian when you guys were talking about that, but um, you know, so it has that going for it. Obviously, it's the iconic proposal. Finally, after three seasons, you get to see it's like you know, a completionist dream in that sense, but um you just you know it's getting tough out there in round two, so you never know. I don't know. I'm like, I would be very happy to send We Found Love home personally. I'm like, I like the vocals, they sound great, but I think that my problems with it are large.

[48:12] Amelia: Um I also do want to bring up the fact that it did lose it won against um Rainbow Connection in round one, which upon like listening back to Rainbow Connection, the full MP3, beautiful song, and actually would vote for Rainbow Connection.

[48:28] Emilee: Oh well.

[48:29] Andrew: Oh well. Okay, we have I don't know. What are we doing?

[48:35] Emilee: It's okay.

[48:36] Andrew: No, you can do it. I mean, it's not even my rule, but no, I'm not gonna do it. I'm just like looking around like, wait a minute. Andrew, I never put a restriction on you.

[48:44] Amelia: You do what you need to do.

[48:46] Andrew: Uh okay, we have from the season six, episode two episode. Also, tell me if the sound goes out. We bought the one.

[48:54] Emilee: Okay, we go.

[54:06] Emilee: Yes. So uh creepy twins. We've got uh we've got Jane and Roderick. So we've got the four newbies, and then you have Rachel.

[54:44] Amelia: No.

[54:46] Emilee: I miss Mercedes, so that's 13.

[54:51] Emilee: Mercedes is there.

[54:53] Andrew: But let me, I'm gonna show you this. This is it's so like once you see it, you can't unsee it. It's so actually like scary.

[55:12] Andrew: No, no, but did they pre-record this then if Diana wasn't around?

[55:17] Emilee: Well, yeah, because Diana's in this episode, but Diana's not in this number.

[55:23] Andrew: Because that's wait, because like is is Amber actually on this track at all? Does she ever make an appearance?

[55:30] Emilee: Let me see.

[55:33] Andrew: Well, what does the Glee Wiki say?

[55:34] Emilee: Right. Exactly. Let me check my sources.

[55:40] Andrew: Okay, so the solos in this number out. I love that they do it alphabetically. Artie, Brittany, Jane, Kurt, Madison, Mason, Puck, Quinn, Rachel, Roderick, Santana, Spencer, and Tina.

[55:57] Emilee: That's 13.

[55:58] Andrew: And that's that counting Mercedes.

[56:01] Emilee: Yeah, Mercedes is nowhere to be found. She she's lip syncing for her life, Amelia, for Diana's vocal.

[56:12] Andrew: Yeah. Wow.

[56:13] Emilee: Um yeah, it really makes you think.

[56:16] Andrew: It does.

[56:17] Emilee: But I do love this number. How did you I'm not even gonna ask how you notice that because like I know.

[56:25] Andrew: I literally feel like I caught this like the first time that I watched it. But I was like, wait a minute. I I know Amber Riley's vocals. Something's not matching here.

[56:36] Emilee: Something is not added. Right.

[56:39] Andrew: Um, but I do love this. I love this number a lot. I feel like it um gets ready for season six in a way that maybe they weren't able to keep up as the season went on. But I still really enjoy it. I do reach for it. I remember being really excited when I found out that they would be covering this song. I didn't know this song before Glee. Um and actually, you know, I had a I knew someone who used it in their wedding too, the original version. And it was after that, and I was like, oh, I never heard the original before because I only knew the glee version.

[57:21] Emilee: Wait, I feel like there's a running theme with this these weddings in your life and being the the glee.

[57:26] Andrew: Yeah, I also have glee in my wedding.

[57:35] Emilee: Uh just it's season five, just the way you are, was my first dance with my husband.

[57:40] Amelia: The glee version, of course.

[57:42] Emilee: Yeah, yeah.

[57:43] Emilee: I I have a very, very understanding husband with my obsession.

[57:50] Emilee: He has seen every episode at least twice.

[57:52] Andrew: So does he like it?

[57:54] Emilee: He does.

[57:55] Emilee: He does.

[57:56] Emilee: He's not like me. He's not crazy like me.

[57:58] Emilee: Um but he does. He enjoys it.

[58:00] Emilee: And he knows. Um actually when we were he was looking over the Patreon list of like what I voted for.

[58:06] Emilee: He was like, I thought you would have voted for Stop in the Name of Love.

[58:09] Emilee: And I was like, and I had to play it for him.

[58:12] Emilee: I'm like, are you thinking of the right one?

[58:14] Emilee: And he's just like, yeah, that's the one I was thinking of. Don't you like that one?

[58:17] Emilee: I'm like, it's not the best. Like, it's okay. Like, but I'm like, Don't act like you know me.

[58:25] Amelia: Right.

[58:25] Emilee: But I was like, prize to you for at least like knowing what I'm proud.

[58:29] Amelia: That's funny.

[58:31] Emilee: Playing music all the time in the car. So he can't escape it.

[58:34] Amelia: Shout out though.

[58:35] Emilee: Yeah.

[58:36] Emilee: Um, I yeah, I love this. I feel like.

[58:40] Andrew: Are we ready to vote?

[58:43] Emilee: I feel good.

[58:44] Andrew: Okay. Who wants to start us off?

[58:46] Emilee: I can start. I'm gonna I'm going home.

[58:50] Amelia: I'm also gonna go home.

[58:53] Emilee: We're all of us. We're gonna we're gonna stop this recording right now and we're gonna go home.

[59:00] Andrew: Bye.

[59:01] Emilee: Bye.

[59:02] Emilee: We did not find love.

[59:04] Amelia: Um I think those polls are gonna be interesting to see for this number.

[59:09] Emilee: You think?

[59:10] Amelia: I don't know. I feel like people do rise for home.

[59:14] Emilee: Yeah, I think so too.

[59:16] Amelia: More. Of the three homes that we have.

[59:20] Emilee: I think that I feel like the season six home is the one that is like the safest.

[59:27] Amelia: I think so too.

[59:28] Amelia: Yeah, I um, even though season one home obsessed with season three home.

[59:36] Emilee: I think season three home no season three home is not in round two.

[59:41] Amelia: Take care of yourself.

[59:43] Emilee: Ooh. There's one Rorolo in round two, and I'm not sure if it's Take Care of Yourself or Home.

[59:53] Amelia: Let's find out.

[59:54] Emilee: Let's find out.

[59:55] Amelia: I'm like, we we have all the data.

[59:57] Emilee: Yeah, we have readily available.

[1:00:00] Amelia: It's take care of yourself.

[1:00:02] Emilee: Oh it is take care of yourself.

[1:00:04] Emilee: Take care of yourself does have against it, however, the um the puck shelby kiss at the end of the MP4.

[1:00:12] Amelia: So why does that have to be a thing?

[1:00:15] Emilee: Love it so much up until that point.

[1:00:18] Amelia: Yeah.

[1:00:18] Amelia: Just cut it a little short.

[1:00:20] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:00:20] Emilee: They're like, oh, actually, the MP4 actually cuts out here.

[1:00:24] Amelia: Weird.

[1:00:24] Amelia: It never happened.

[1:00:26] Emilee: Um getting into competition number two, and I swear to god, if we don't fight, there's gonna be pretty good.

[1:00:32] Amelia: If you pull a blow, I'll I'll die for it.

[1:00:36] Emilee: I have not a blolo.

[1:00:40] Amelia: I have another surprising season six song.

[1:00:44] Emilee: What?

[1:00:45] Amelia: That's so random.

[1:00:46] Emilee: Crazy.

[1:00:47] Amelia: They're like, wait a minute, I just saw that you got my friend in from season six. Maybe you can help get it.

[1:00:53] Emilee: Well, there's only along the way. There's 26 season six songs.

[1:00:58] Amelia: We know what we know what it is.

[1:01:00] Emilee: I know what it is.

[1:01:01] Amelia: Yeah, it's popular.

[1:01:03] Emilee: Sure is.

[1:01:05] ♪ Musical number: "Popular" — performed by the Glee Cast ♪

[1:03:10] Andrew: Um I could say so much about this. Does anybody want to okay?

[1:03:15] Amelia: Amelia, go ahead.

[1:03:17] Amelia: My first note is just Rachel's eyebrows.

[1:03:20] Emilee: Say that.

[1:03:21] Amelia: They're so scared.

[1:03:23] Emilee: I'm really scared.

[1:03:24] Amelia: Who else is scared? Raise your hand.

[1:03:26] Emilee: Scared.

[1:03:28] Amelia: The whole room agrees.

[1:03:31] Amelia: Umily, what are you thinking of popular?

[1:03:36] Emilee: So again, as if I haven't said it enough. I love musical theater, right? But if we're gonna get a Rachel Kurt duet from Wicked, it's not this one.

[1:03:46] Amelia: It's the other one, in my opinion.

[1:03:48] Emilee: Wait, what are we?

[1:03:50] Amelia: For good.

[1:03:50] Emilee: I like for good.

[1:03:51] Amelia: I think everyone agrees.

[1:03:53] Emilee: Yes.

[1:03:53] Amelia: Yes.

[1:03:54] Amelia: Right. I thought you were suggesting that instead of singing popular in this episode that they did another wicked duet. And I was like, ooh, wait, wait, wait. I want to know.

[1:04:02] Amelia: This season only needs one, and this ain't it.

[1:04:06] Emilee: Well, yeah, I mean, like they it's like technically like defying gravity, but like it's their bit at this point to sure for all the wicked songs to be Kurt and Rachel, with the exception of season five, Mercedes having right.

[1:04:21] Amelia: I don't know. I just feel like it's just it's cute, and I get it. Yeah, it's kind of their thing, but like eh, don't know.

[1:04:30] Emilee: Rachel's outfit is not season one, Rachel.

[1:04:33] Amelia: It is season six.

[1:04:35] Emilee: I I I agree. Where are the ballet flats? Where are those long skirts? Where's the pants suit?

[1:04:42] Amelia: The pants suit.

[1:04:43] Emilee: Bring the pants suit back for 2009.

[1:04:45] Amelia: I feel as though yeah, oh my gosh, I could I literally could say so much about this performance. Um Leah Michelle is doing Rachel season one in this performance, which I will not deny. Like she she is like fully acting in this the penultimate episode. Zero people are watching, and yet she is putting the performance of a lifetime.

[1:05:13] Amelia: But I will agree the costuming was like, I don't know. Where was what was the choice? But I think like throughout 2009, the costumes that the wardrobe for her is pretty on point. But this is just one is the only one, yeah.

[1:05:30] Emilee: Because when you first see her, what is that in the cafeteria or whatever? I mean, she is full 2009 Rachel.

[1:05:35] Amelia: But this one I was just watching as I'm watching it, I'm like, that skirt is a lot shorter than she'd wear back then. She's not wearing those ballet flats that make her feet look like they're splaying out.

[1:05:44] Emilee: Yeah, she's not like, but you know, I don't know, just you know, but you do. The Kurt Wardrobe is giving season one. However, unfortunately, the Kurt Body, you can't, there's so tall.

[1:05:58] Amelia: That's one of my notes.

[1:05:59] Amelia: You can't re-baby the face.

[1:06:01] Emilee: Right.

[1:06:02] Amelia: Yeah.

[1:06:04] Amelia: Yeah. It's he's like filling out this like Kurt Season One fit in a way that yeah.

[1:06:12] Emilee: Oh, I don't know. Um but what was that? What else was I gonna say?

[1:06:18] Amelia: Oh, I yeah, I just I don't know. I just feel like they got to this, they got to the end of the series and they were like, we didn't do popular yet. And they were like, well, you wanna do it here? And they were like, sure. And it just like that's what it's giving.

[1:06:33] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:06:33] Amelia: I do like this episode. I know a lot of people don't. Um, I I think I I really can't wait for Jenna and Kevin to talk about it because they've talked about it just a few times, and it sounds like they enjoyed this one so much. And I'm sure because of the show wrapping up and just kind of going back to the old school. Um, so I'm really excited to see what they have to say.

[1:06:52] Amelia: I thought it was cute, I thought it was fun, but I get why people are like, oh, it's kind of cringe, it's kind of, you know, it's again, you can't reverse six years of aging.

[1:07:03] Emilee: Yeah, you know, but I don't I I don't really like this. I'm in the camp of like not enjoying this episode.

[1:07:12] Amelia: So I just I feel like when I first learned that they were gonna be doing a 2009 episode, I was like very, very excited. And I was thinking, like, I remember seeing like the onset pictures and seeing that like the Cheerio extras, they because the Cheerio uniform does alter as the series goes on, and I loved that they were like paying attention to detail and they were doing like the early season one Cheerio uniform. It was like, okay, hopes are very high for this episode.

[1:07:41] Emilee: Um, but it didn't really give me the things that I kind of wanted. I think that it was like very, I don't know, it was like I understand that it was like focusing on like the core new directions, but I would have loved like a little Santana and Britney. We didn't like because we didn't get any of their story until much later on in the series, and so I would love to like have some context for like what was going on with them during that time.

[1:08:08] Amelia: Sure, and I think that it was like I said, I really like I am in the the rare few who do really like this episode, but I think that if it it would have worked better if it was in a full season, right? When you've only got so many episodes, and you know, you've only got so much time to try to flesh out even brand new characters in a season. It's not for when you've only got that one. Was it 13 episodes? It was a half season, right?

[1:08:33] Emilee: 13.

[1:08:36] Amelia: And I think that's if you only got that much time. Do you have time to throw, not throw away, but pretty much repeat what you've already done in a sense.

[1:08:44] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:08:45] Emilee: And I remember like production for this episode was following um production of a wedding. And so like they filmed this, like in it was like all intense of person and purposes. Am I saying that correctly?

[1:09:00] Amelia: Yeah.

[1:09:00] Emilee: Intents and purposes to be um released like the week after a wedding. And then they were like, no, actually, let's move it to be like linked up with the series finale, which I think was the right move. I think that it would have been very weird if after a wedding we went to this episode and then we had like still the rest of the season right to finish out.

[1:09:21] Amelia: Agreed.

[1:09:22] Amelia: But yeah, I don't know. I just remember like getting so excited for this episode and then it just like dropping the ball. I remember thinking that um similarly to like previously honored Christmas, that we would be getting actual content from that time, and it would be somehow strung along into an episode.

[1:09:42] Emilee: You know, I I agree. Like the um like the the scene that they cut where they wear like the disco outfits or the really gross outfits or whatever, like the snippets that got cut, like left of the cutting room floor somehow put together.

[1:09:57] Amelia: It's hard to do too when you've got someone who's no longer there of the original.

[1:10:02] Emilee: Sure.

[1:10:02] Amelia: I mean, they did it probably the best way they could, but you know, he was obviously a huge part of the beginning, so yeah.

[1:10:10] Emilee: I had unrealistic standards, I think. Of like, I was like, wait a minute, this is not what I wanted. Do it again again. Send it back. I don't want this.

[1:10:20] Amelia: Um, yeah.

[1:10:21] Amelia: Also, legal note, legal note, legal note. Um, Marley and Kitty, I believe, were supposed to sing this in season four. I remember hearing a rumor.

[1:10:32] Emilee: Something, maybe like from Adam Anders himself.

[1:10:37] Amelia: I would have liked that better.

[1:10:39] Emilee: Me too.

[1:10:39] Emilee: Absolutely.

[1:10:40] Amelia: Yeah. 100%.

[1:10:42] Emilee: Was that during oh no? I'm trying to think of when they sang duets together, but that was like the superhero episode, so that wouldn't make sense.

[1:10:50] Amelia: Well, like during that whole time when she's like giving her an eating disorder. She's making her popular and better and whole.

[1:10:59] Emilee: So like for sure. I guess that's it. I would have loved it. Also, like Becca Tobin as Glinda on Broadway when.

[1:11:06] Amelia: Let's do it.

[1:11:08] Emilee: Sign me up.

[1:11:09] Amelia: Sign me up.

[1:11:10] Emilee: I'll start the change.org link.

[1:11:11] Amelia: All right, here we go.

[1:11:12] Amelia: Um, here we go.

[1:11:15] Amelia: Um, yeah, I don't again. I I feel like this is you know, going back on Emily's rule. I think we're setting up for a really easy competition potentially.

[1:11:29] Amelia: Popular not getting the popular vote. This will send uh 2009 into the no round. This is the only song from 2009.

[1:11:40] Emilee: I love this.

[1:11:42] Amelia: Amelia, you are the Steve Karnacke of Glee.

[1:11:45] Emilee: I don't know who that is. Should I know? Am I old?

[1:11:48] Amelia: Oh crap. No, Steve Karnacke's like, he's like following like the polls and like the voting and everything, and he was like on like the Today Show last week to talk about like the Oscar chances of like, okay, like who's gonna win best picture?

[1:12:01] Andrew: Okay, we've had like one in fourteen chances or something.

[1:12:05] Emilee: Um, but no, to explain that reference to you.

[1:12:08] Amelia: It's it is a compliment because Steve Karnaki do be smart, seems like yeah, yeah.

[1:12:15] Andrew: Okay.

[1:12:16] Emilee: Against popular from season three.

[1:12:20] Amelia: From season three.

[1:12:21] Andrew: Do we want any context?

[1:12:24] Emilee: You can do whatever you want.

[1:12:25] Amelia: You do whatever you feel is necessary, Andrew.

[1:12:29] Andrew: This is so nice.

[1:12:30] Emilee: It's from a tribute episode.

[1:12:33] Amelia: It's the final number of a tribute episode in season three.

[1:12:36] Andrew: Do we wanna take a stab in the dark before I share my screen?

[1:12:40] Emilee: Is it rumors?

[1:12:42] Amelia: From season three.

[1:12:44] Emilee: Oh shoot.

[1:12:45] Amelia: Oh my god, my brain.

[1:12:46] Emilee: Is it black or white?

[1:12:48] Amelia: It's not black or white.

[1:12:49] Emilee: Uh oh, okay, Michael.

[1:12:50] Amelia: Uh is it from Michael though?

[1:12:52] Emilee: No, that's the that's the end.

[1:12:53] Amelia: Is it um you've got it?

[1:12:56] Emilee: Staying alive.

[1:12:57] Amelia: It is staying alive.

[1:13:01] Andrew: Interesting.

[1:13:02] Emilee: So fun.

[1:13:04] Amelia: Yes.

[1:13:09] Andrew: Well, you can't tell by the way I use my walk on the womb's man.

[1:13:14] Emilee: No time to tell the music women walk my bacteria.

[1:13:18] Amelia: So I was born.

[1:13:19] Andrew: Now it's alright.

[1:13:21] Emilee: That's okay.

[1:13:22] Amelia: You may look the other way, but we can try to understand the New York Times effect on man.

[1:13:29] Andrew: Whether you're a brother or wester, you're a mother, you stay in alive, stay in alive, feel the city breaking and everybody shaking in with staying alive, staying alive.

[1:13:38] Emilee: Ah ah, ah, uh, staying alive, staying alive.

[1:13:54] Amelia: Oh, we do walk.

[1:13:58] Andrew: Well now I get low and I get high.

[1:14:01] Emilee: And if I can't get in, I really try.

[1:14:03] Amelia: Cut the wings up and up my shoes, I'm a dancing man, and I just can't lose.

[1:14:08] Andrew: You know it's alright, it's okay.

[1:14:10] Emilee: I live to see another day.

[1:14:13] Amelia: But we can try to understand the New York Times of that.

[1:14:18] Andrew: Whether you're a brother or wife, then you're a mother, you stay in alive, staying alive.

[1:14:22] Emilee: Feel the city breaking and everybody shaking it, we're staying alive, staying alive.

[1:14:22] Amelia: Staying alive, staying alive.

[1:14:48] Andrew: Life going nowhere.

[1:14:50] Emilee: Somebody help me.

[1:14:53] Amelia: Somebody help me, yeah.

[1:14:55] Andrew: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[1:15:00] Emilee: Life going nowhere.

[1:15:02] Amelia: Somebody help me, yeah.

[1:15:05] Andrew: I'm staying alive alive.

[1:15:15] Emilee: I like that more than I thought that I would.

[1:15:17] Amelia: Me too.

[1:15:18] Emilee: Stay alive.

[1:15:19] Amelia: It's so fun.

[1:15:21] Andrew: Who wants to start?

[1:15:24] Emilee: Do you have any?

[1:15:26] Amelia: I feel like you had a thought.

[1:15:27] Emilee: I always have a thought.

[1:15:29] Amelia: I got lots of thoughts.

[1:15:31] Emilee: So I'm just remembering when when was who was on when Disco Inferno was pulled?

[1:15:36] Amelia: Oh, that was Connor and Ian together.

[1:15:39] Emilee: Connor and Ian.

[1:15:39] Amelia: Okay, that's what I thought.

[1:15:40] Emilee: So was it you?

[1:15:43] Amelia: Or was it someone that was saying that we don't really care for this episode?

[1:15:47] Emilee: I yeah, to regurgitate what I said.

[1:15:50] Amelia: Okay.

[1:15:51] Emilee: I um I watched this episode thinking like, oh, this would be a fun episode to watch as a because Elias and I tend to throw on an episode of Glee while we're ready to get in to go out for on a Friday or Saturday evening.

[1:16:06] Amelia: And this one I I really put a lot of trust in to deliver, and it didn't.

[1:16:13] Emilee: And not to say that it's a bad glee episode, but it didn't satisfy the pregaming purposes.

[1:16:18] Amelia: Sure, and that makes total sense because it's one that's got like the music in this is amazing, but like it's not as like funny, it's not as like whippy, you know, there's not as many quotable moments, but the music of this, so like my I grew up on this kind of music.

[1:16:33] Emilee: My dad is a Saturday night fever, Abba loving, BG's loving, like this is this is my childhood here.

[1:16:41] Amelia: So like I love this episode, but I didn't care for it as much when I actually watched it.

[1:16:45] Emilee: But now it's one of my favorites, like from that season.

[1:16:48] Amelia: I it's just every number is iconic.

[1:16:50] Emilee: I just think that everyone I it's it's just a fun group number.

[1:16:53] Amelia: I don't know.

[1:16:54] Emilee: What was the what was the change?

[1:16:57] Amelia: I don't know.

[1:16:57] Emilee: And I don't know if it was just that like I liked other things when I during my initial watch.

[1:17:03] Amelia: Like I liked more of the or the Finchel storyline, and that is not as strong in this one.

[1:17:09] Emilee: I mean, it's out there, but but I don't know.

[1:17:12] Amelia: I don't know what changed.

[1:17:13] Emilee: Maybe I just grew up and really started to like disco.

[1:17:17] Amelia: I don't know.

[1:17:18] Emilee: Right.

[1:17:18] Amelia: If you grow up, I I glowed up with my love for disco.

[1:17:23] Emilee: But I don't know.

[1:17:24] Amelia: It's something that I reach for this.

[1:17:26] Emilee: I reach for this, I reach for every song in that episode except for the Rachel song, which is really yeah.

[1:17:33] Amelia: So it for me then it probably would have been opposite, but um, yeah.

[1:17:38] Emilee: See, I love how deep is your love.

[1:17:40] Amelia: Glee Castle.

[1:17:42] Emilee: Definitely a good song, like not a bad song, but yeah.

[1:17:45] Amelia: Do I reach for it?

[1:17:46] Emilee: No, but I reach for this.

[1:17:47] Amelia: Right, right.

[1:17:48] Emilee: Um, I wanted to bring up a statistic.

[1:17:51] Amelia: Sorry for like bringing statistics up to you constantly, Amelia, as if like you were like the lawyer.

[1:17:56] Emilee: No, I love this is so great.

[1:17:57] Amelia: Like, do you ever like watch like Wendy Williams and then the the lawyers always like say allegedly say allegedly the the lawyers like in the ear ear.

[1:18:04] Emilee: Um yeah.

[1:18:06] Amelia: Um but I feel as though recently okay, so I want to get this correct.

[1:18:13] Emilee: Um we had every Santolo going through, except for Alfie, and like Trouty Mouth was brought back at the end of round two, and then tr uh and Trouty Mouth has since seen is going to round three.

[1:18:31] Amelia: But now if I can't have you is not seeing round three, but like every other Santolo is like kind of up for grabs.

[1:18:41] Emilee: There's only two wait, you've only pulled one other one, right?

[1:18:46] Amelia: So you've pulled two.

[1:18:47] Emilee: If I can't have you is not a little bit.

[1:18:51] Amelia: Oh, and then yes, and then Trouty Mouth.

[1:18:53] Emilee: And then Trouty Mouth is a few.

[1:18:54] Amelia: And Trouty Mouth is.

[1:18:56] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:18:56] Amelia: So that's all you've pulled so far.

[1:18:58] Emilee: So the only like Santolos that are like not seeing light of day are Alfie and If I Can't Have You.

[1:19:07] Amelia: So R.I.P.

[1:19:08] Emilee: Elfie.

[1:19:09] Amelia: Oh.

[1:19:10] Emilee: I know that's heartbreaking.

[1:19:10] Amelia: Love her down.

[1:19:12] Emilee: That was so sick what happened to her.

[1:19:14] Amelia: I don't know.

[1:19:14] Emilee: I don't even remember that competition, but I it must have been a hard one because it was it was against seasons of love.

[1:19:19] Amelia: Oh.

[1:19:20] Emilee: Which there you go.

[1:19:22] Amelia: Oh, I have some thoughts on that episode.

[1:19:23] Emilee: Let me tell you.

[1:19:24] Amelia: Wait, do you do you do we want to talk?

[1:19:24] Emilee: Do we want to talk about wait?

[1:19:28] Amelia: What do you want to talk about, Emily?

[1:19:31] Emilee: I keep I keep changing the conversation.

[1:19:33] Amelia: No, I love it.

[1:19:35] Emilee: No, I just I actually was just thinking about the um the quarterback episode, and I know that on this podcast that a lot of people feel very strongly about maybe not including those songs um in the glacket.

[1:19:49] Amelia: But I think they all should be included in the glacket.

[1:19:52] Emilee: I think it's very important.

[1:19:53] Amelia: Um I think that it's hard, but I think it was the only way that we as people on the other side of the screen could grieve through that sense.

[1:20:06] Emilee: It was the wrong choice, right?

[1:20:07] Amelia: To go through.

[1:20:08] Emilee: It was the wrong decision to make the episode.

[1:20:11] Amelia: They've said it, they've you know admitted it, but it's there.

[1:20:13] Emilee: The media is out there, and it's the only thing that we really have to mourn and in our own way.

[1:20:20] Amelia: And I so I think it's really important that it's a part of it, um, even though it might be difficult, but again, it's not my Glackett, it's not my rodeo.

[1:20:28] Emilee: It's not my own.

[1:20:31] Amelia: Thank you for being like very apolitical about it.

[1:20:33] Emilee: Um wait, so where do you say?

[1:20:35] Amelia: Because obviously Make You Feel My Love was retired when it was pulled in round one?

[1:20:41] Emilee: Do you I love Make You Feel my love down stream?

[1:20:44] Amelia: Stream it constantly, but you are saying that it should be considered in Glackett.

[1:20:51] Emilee: Or at least in your Glackett.

[1:20:53] Amelia: And yes, I would have put that one through.

[1:20:57] Emilee: You know, just because I think all songs that meet the criteria should be able to go through one way or another.

[1:21:04] Amelia: Sure.

[1:21:05] Emilee: But again, not my not my rodeo.

[1:21:08] Amelia: And that's what you have.

[1:21:10] Emilee: That is what that's why you run the show.

[1:21:14] Amelia: That's why you do the things.

[1:21:16] Emilee: You make those executive decisions is the word I'm thinking of.

[1:21:19] Amelia: And that's okay.

[1:21:20] Emilee: It's like it's a really complicated thing because I I am not looking forward to like pulling like if I die young again, because like that's another one that I stream, but also like the MP3 of that is so different than the MP4.

[1:21:34] Amelia: And so I don't even know if naturally if I die young would even fare well in the Glackett.

[1:21:41] Emilee: Sure.

[1:21:42] Amelia: Generally.

[1:21:42] Emilee: Right.

[1:21:43] Amelia: Because there's such a difference between the MP3 and the MP4.

[1:21:46] Emilee: Um, but Amelia, I'm curious, do you have any opinions about quarterback songs as they relate to the Glackett?

[1:21:53] Amelia: I I think I agree with like their part of the Glackett.

[1:21:57] Emilee: And like I I think it comes up competition by competition, right?

[1:22:01] Amelia: So like if you have another like a completely like a song on the same level, then like whatever.

[1:22:07] Emilee: But then if you're like, I don't I don't know.

[1:22:09] Amelia: I don't really have like full complete thoughts, but I think it's on a song by song basis.

[1:22:15] Emilee: You mentioned that, Andrew, as one of the reasons why you're like, do I want to pull that next to like make them laugh?

[1:22:21] Amelia: Or like some kind of you know, potsy schmutzy song that like, you know, is is that fair?

[1:22:26] Emilee: Is that you know respectful, I guess is would be the word.

[1:22:30] Amelia: So I I think that like to truly like not drive myself crazy as well, is I am such a believer in like what happens in the zoom in the moment is what happens, and like that is just whatever feels right vibe-wise, is going to happen.

[1:22:51] Emilee: So, like maybe like when we do pull like seasons of love again, and it's like, wait a minute, I'm actually like kind of feeling this song.

[1:22:58] Amelia: Like, I'm not going to like go revert back to being like no quarterbacks, like that's an automatic win or anything.

[1:23:05] Emilee: It's it's truly basis by basis, and yeah, that's fair.

[1:23:11] Amelia: Yeah.

[1:23:11] Emilee: Sorry.

[1:23:12] Amelia: I did not this has nothing to do with the quarterback.

[1:23:15] Emilee: No, and you know what?

[1:23:16] Amelia: I was I was desperate for a tangent.

[1:23:19] Emilee: So I'm so glad that we are.

[1:23:27] Amelia: Oh gosh.

[1:23:28] Emilee: Um, yeah, staying alive.

[1:23:31] Amelia: I would say staying alive is maybe my how deep is your love of this episode.

[1:23:37] Emilee: I don't think that I like I don't I like it.

[1:23:41] Amelia: I again I liked it more than I thought that I would.

[1:23:46] Emilee: The Mercedes like wail, like, ah loved that.

[1:23:51] Amelia: That was very fun.

[1:23:52] Emilee: Can we get that one more time?

[1:23:54] Amelia: Was that was that able to be communicated over Zoom?

[1:23:57] Emilee: I'm curious.

[1:23:57] Amelia: Okay, great.

[1:23:58] Emilee: I heard a little pitch, uh little like yeah, but it was there.

[1:23:58] Amelia: It was there.

[1:24:03] Emilee: I'm not gonna do it again because you know what?

[1:24:04] Amelia: You're gonna be able to listen to it.

[1:24:07] Emilee: Play it on repeating.

[1:24:08] Amelia: Let me clip it for the carousel.

[1:24:11] Emilee: Wait, that's I was like thinking in my head, I was like, what is the carousel?

[1:24:15] Amelia: I will overlay that audio over Mercedes doing that.

[1:24:21] Emilee: I can't wait.

[1:24:22] Amelia: I'm excited.

[1:24:24] Emilee: I don't know.

[1:24:25] Amelia: I like it.

[1:24:25] Emilee: And also I know that like more than a woman is not seeing light of day in round two.

[1:24:25] Amelia: More than a woman.

[1:24:32] Emilee: So sorry to make you I feel like is it was it against Total Eclipse of the Heart?

[1:24:37] Amelia: I'm gonna say I can't spell.

[1:24:41] Emilee: I was just I was getting there.

[1:24:42] Amelia: I just um had a little typo.

[1:24:44] Emilee: It takes it takes a second.

[1:24:46] Amelia: Um total eclipse of the heart.

[1:24:48] Emilee: Yeah, my mind, my mind.

[1:24:50] Amelia: You got it.

[1:24:51] Emilee: But uh total eclipse of the heart.

[1:24:53] Amelia: I mean how can we take an W.

[1:24:56] Emilee: Right.

[1:24:57] Amelia: But more than a woman, I've been like vibing with recently.

[1:25:02] Emilee: It's a bob.

[1:25:03] Amelia: It really is.

[1:25:04] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:25:06] Amelia: I love Emily.

[1:25:08] Emilee: Do you have any thoughts about staying alive?

[1:25:11] Amelia: They all look so happy.

[1:25:12] Emilee: Like I feel like they all look like they're having fun.

[1:25:15] Amelia: They're the one thing that bothers me about it though, is the whole competition is for the suits, and then they're all in the I just feel like I just threw my butt.

[1:25:23] Emilee: I'm so passionate about it.

[1:25:25] Amelia: Um, but like they all end up in the suits.

[1:25:27] Emilee: And Becky made all of them.

[1:25:29] Amelia: And Becky made all of them.

[1:25:30] Emilee: That Becky Jackson.

[1:25:32] Amelia: She she's put in the hours.

[1:25:35] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:25:36] Amelia: Um, which is yeah, no, it's it's kind of sick that they all get at the end.

[1:25:40] Emilee: But is this like a dream sequence?

[1:25:42] Amelia: What do we think?

[1:25:43] Emilee: Are we we're expected to believe that this is canon, right?

[1:25:46] Amelia: I feel like we could just do a whole other podcast just real or something.

[1:25:50] Emilee: Is it real or is it not if it's that's so true.

[1:25:54] Amelia: Just going song by song.

[1:25:56] Emilee: Right.

[1:25:57] Amelia: Oh my god.

[1:25:58] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:25:59] Amelia: I think this one's real.

[1:26:01] Emilee: I think this one's real.

[1:26:02] Amelia: Maybe not the outfit they're wearing.

[1:26:02] Emilee: But because there's like there's no like roar set.

[1:26:02] Amelia: There's no like.

[1:26:07] Emilee: Roar is real.

[1:26:09] Amelia: Oh, yeah.

[1:26:09] Emilee: Rora is real.

[1:26:11] Amelia: That's true.

[1:26:14] Emilee: But you know, any of those above and beyond ones that are not canon.

[1:26:25] Emilee: That I don't know, because man, that's a lot of manpower for Becky.

[1:26:28] Amelia: I think Becky put in all the work and did it.

[1:26:31] Emilee: Wait, at the end of the episode, what is like the consensus?

[1:26:35] Amelia: Like, I remember like Tina's one line of that episode is like, who's gonna win the suit?

[1:26:40] Emilee: And that was her one line.

[1:26:41] Amelia: Um but who she got paid.

[1:26:44] Emilee: The check's still cleared.

[1:26:46] Amelia: Um what who actually like it was like determined that they all won.

[1:26:50] Emilee: Yeah, the three of them tied.

[1:26:53] Amelia: Right.

[1:26:53] Emilee: But it was like never a discussion about like, okay, we actually made suits for everybody.

[1:26:57] Amelia: It's just cut to no, yeah.

[1:27:01] Emilee: Right.

[1:27:01] Amelia: What if you're having suits, even Sue and Will.

[1:27:04] Emilee: Yeah, when I saw when I first yeah, when I first saw the number, it was like, okay, the three of them are coming out, they're strutting down the hallway.

[1:27:10] Amelia: Okay, and then yeah, I cut to everyone wearing the suit, and I'm like, you just ruined the entire point of the entire episode.

[1:27:18] Emilee: Right.

[1:27:19] Amelia: They were all fighting for this suit.

[1:27:20] Emilee: And I think that it would have been really cute if like everybody else was wearing like disco inspired fits, like a la more than a woman, like where they were like all wearing these things, but then you obviously have like the three vocalists of this song, Fan Santana and Mercedes in the suits, as they should be.

[1:27:36] Amelia: Right.

[1:27:37] Emilee: I don't know.

[1:27:38] Amelia: I have notes.

[1:27:39] Emilee: I have notes.

[1:27:40] Amelia: That's a dear Brian Murphy.

[1:27:42] Emilee: Upset enough to like that that doesn't make me as upset as Rachel's eyebrows.

[1:27:49] Amelia: Right.

[1:27:49] Emilee: Oh, I think it's considering the metric system.

[1:27:54] Amelia: Right below Rachel's eye press.

[1:27:57] Emilee: Um I will s I will say on the topic of women's hair, um, I guess.

[1:28:03] Amelia: Uh trying to find a uh a through line.

[1:28:06] Emilee: Jenna's hair looks I've always thought that Jenna's hair has never looked better than in this performance.

[1:28:11] Amelia: It is very, very cute to me.

[1:28:13] Emilee: Love that band.

[1:28:14] Amelia: Love the headband.

[1:28:15] Emilee: Here for it.

[1:28:16] Amelia: Yeah, it's so cute.

[1:28:18] Emilee: Um I feel like this is another obvious.

[1:28:24] Amelia: Yeah, I wanna.

[1:28:27] Emilee: Can you let's rig the last competition, cut the audio, we'll rig it.

[1:28:31] Amelia: Let's rig it.

[1:28:32] Emilee: Let's rig it.

[1:28:34] Amelia: Um, but for the sake of actually doing a vote, we are what are we voting for?

[1:28:40] Emilee: Yeah, I'm I'm staying alive.

[1:28:43] Amelia: Say it alive in round three.

[1:28:45] Emilee: Can I give the pity vote?

[1:28:46] Amelia: Can I give the pity vote to Popular?

[1:28:48] Emilee: You wanna give the pity vote?

[1:28:49] Amelia: Yeah, go ahead.

[1:28:50] Emilee: Oh my god, I feel so honored.

[1:28:51] Amelia: I want to give the pity vote to popular, just because my musical theater heart, you know, gotta gotta stay true, but I really really like staying alive better.

[1:29:01] Emilee: We'll just keep that between you and me.

[1:29:03] Amelia: Staying alive, no one else will know.

[1:29:05] Emilee: No one staying alive, going through going into our final competition of the episode.

[1:29:12] Amelia: Again, I really really, really want to fight.

[1:29:15] Emilee: I don't know what it is about round two.

[1:29:17] Amelia: I feel like because all of these songs are vetted after round one, that I'm like, I don't know, but I feel like when we first started round two, there were like a lot of very hard competitions.

[1:29:30] Emilee: But like the ones as of lately are like it's a setup.

[1:29:34] Amelia: Right.

[1:29:36] Emilee: Says the man pulling numbers out of a cup.

[1:29:39] Amelia: It's a setup.

[1:29:40] Emilee: It's a setup.

[1:29:41] Amelia: I have the song that actually won against Makey Feel My Love.

[1:29:47] Emilee: Even though Make You Feel My Love retired.

[1:29:51] Amelia: Um does anybody Well, I you yeah, you I don't remember.

[1:29:57] Emilee: I just remember I wouldn't have voted for a song.

[1:29:59] Amelia: This is a good one.

[1:30:02] Emilee: Okay.

[1:30:02] Amelia: It's this could potentially like make for a very hard competition.

[1:35:47] Emilee: Um I don't like White Lotus.

[1:36:04] Amelia: Wait, so you did not finish season one.

[1:36:06] Emilee: I finished it.

[1:36:10] Amelia: No, no, no.

[1:36:11] Emilee: Did you watch it live?

[1:36:12] Amelia: I feel like that might be part of it.

[1:36:14] Emilee: I watched it, I binged it all like in a weekend, and I was like, I don't understand the appeal, but every single person I talked to loved it, so I know it's a me problem.

[1:36:25] Amelia: Wait, so Amelia, what is your relationship with?

[1:36:27] Emilee: I watched like a couple episodes and gave up.

[1:36:31] Amelia: Which is crazy because I'm usually a binger.

[1:36:32] Emilee: Like I watched all of Grays in like a semester.

[1:36:36] Amelia: That's a lot of content.

[1:36:37] Emilee: Oh yeah, it was four months.

[1:36:39] Amelia: It was 19 seasons in four months.

[1:36:41] Emilee: That's wild.

[1:36:44] Amelia: Ugh.

[1:36:45] Emilee: Wow.

[1:36:46] Amelia: Anyways, we're not talking about light white lotus here.

[1:36:48] Emilee: We are.

[1:36:48] Amelia: No, but no, no, white lettuce is like, I want to say white lotus is very good.

[1:36:52] Emilee: If you do, if plug white lotus, white lotus needs it, actually.

[1:36:55] Amelia: White Lotus is dumb bad.

[1:36:56] Emilee: White Lotus does not have an audience, as it turns out.

[1:36:59] Amelia: Um, love this series down bad.

[1:37:04] Emilee: Emily, if you watched it all the way through season one, you gotta just go through season two because season two is where the big drama is.

[1:37:13] Amelia: Okay, well, it's to me, it just seems like a bunch of rich white people, and I'm like, ugh, that's just a lot of people.

[1:37:18] Emilee: But isn't that like kind of like the point though?

[1:37:21] Amelia: It's like why do we want to watch that?

[1:37:24] Emilee: I because they're being they're being crazy and they're being silly, and it makes me want to go on vacation, right?

[1:37:31] Amelia: But I love I love because this was like also with like big little lies of like the framing device of like we know someone's gonna die.

[1:37:38] Emilee: Did that not keep you coming back?

[1:37:41] Amelia: No, and I no I love Jennifer Coolidge in everything but this.

[1:37:46] Emilee: I didn't like her in this, and I'm like, I am such a Jennifer Coolidge fan.

[1:37:50] Amelia: Like, she is my era.

[1:37:52] Emilee: Brittany's mom bringing it back.

[1:37:55] Amelia: Right, bringing it back to love love, love her.

[1:37:57] Emilee: I think she is so talented, but like I don't know.

[1:38:00] Amelia: I don't was I in a bad mood.

[1:38:02] Emilee: Do I need to re-watch?

[1:38:03] Amelia: Like, I think that maybe I would say in literally, I'm not like not yucking your yum, or I guess yumming your yuck, I guess would be the uh the obvious alternate.

[1:38:15] Emilee: Um, but no.

[1:38:17] Amelia: I mean, it's good.

[1:38:18] Emilee: But like everybody's telling you that.

[1:38:20] Amelia: So if it's not for you, then it's not for you.

[1:38:22] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:38:22] Amelia: I wanted to like it.

[1:38:23] Emilee: I really did.

[1:38:24] Amelia: Like, otherwise I wouldn't have watched the whole thing, but yeah.

[1:38:28] Emilee: Um, but I mean, like, would you say that it was like it gave you misery?

[1:38:35] Amelia: It did.

[1:38:36] Emilee: You got it, and then got it.

[1:38:38] Amelia: I don't know.

[1:38:38] Emilee: I'm just like grasping at draws.

[1:38:41] Amelia: Um, what do we do we have any notes about this performance?

[1:38:47] Emilee: So much.

[1:38:48] Amelia: And it's original song for those like the little clean before they kiss for the first.

[1:38:53] Emilee: Like, I just my heart's so happy.

[1:38:56] Amelia: And I know that like Razor Glass, like TBD, if it's gonna come back for round three.

[1:39:01] Emilee: I hate that it's like personally, I'm so sorry.

[1:39:04] Amelia: I know that it's like leading that charge right now for a song to be brought back.

[1:39:08] Emilee: Does not do a lot for me.

[1:39:10] Amelia: Would have loved if like they did if they just swapped Well, he says opening number.

[1:39:15] Emilee: Right.

[1:39:16] Amelia: Well, but then they never do it again.

[1:39:18] Emilee: They they always do that.

[1:39:19] Amelia: We know this game a little bit too well.

[1:39:22] Emilee: Um, but like I would have loved if they maybe they started the episode with Raz Your Glass, and then they were like, hey, this is the opening number, and then they didn't do it, and then they did misery at Regionals.

[1:39:32] Amelia: I don't know.

[1:39:33] Emilee: But maybe then it would have been too good because they needed to lose.

[1:39:38] Amelia: I mean, they had candles, so like I think even if you turned it, like I don't know that it would candles would have brought down even the the best song.

[1:39:48] Emilee: Um love the table slam.

[1:39:51] Amelia: Obsessed with the table slam portion of this song.

[1:39:55] Emilee: It the euphoria that I get listening to it.

[1:39:59] Amelia: Um yeah.

[1:40:01] Emilee: I I'm obsessed with it.

[1:40:02] Amelia: Parasit.

[1:40:03] Emilee: If I play devil's advocate.

[1:40:05] Amelia: Go ahead.

[1:40:06] Emilee: I'm not a warbler's girl.

[1:40:09] Amelia: Leave.

[1:40:10] Emilee: I'm sorry.

[1:40:12] Amelia: I know.

[1:40:12] Emilee: I'm like, oh wait, let me find.

[1:40:14] Amelia: Um but I will say there's not a song of theirs I dislike, right?

[1:40:18] Emilee: Like there's not a song that I don't like.

[1:40:21] Amelia: I just don't reach for the warblers ever.

[1:40:23] Emilee: So for me, I I don't reach for it.

[1:40:27] Amelia: I don't know.

[1:40:28] Emilee: It's nothing really just like it's just not for me.

[1:40:33] Amelia: Teenage dream, I guess.

[1:40:34] Emilee: I mean, because iconic, but like I don't know.

[1:40:38] Amelia: It's just it's never something that when I'm putting together a playlist or it's on my recently, you know, played, it's just it's not for me.

[1:40:46] Emilee: But it's not bad. I will say that like listening to this right now, I realize like how intricate all the sounds were. Because like listening to it with headphones, which I'm sure like a lot of people are listening to this right now, you can really really hear all of the specific voices and the little noises that they make. Here I am. I don't I don't know a single damn thing about singing. All the noises that they make. Um, but I don't know. It just it really brought it brought it from an A to an A plus for me.

[1:41:22] Amelia: No, and I get it. I get why I mean I get he is Darren Chris, right? Like we get it. I get it. But for me, it's just not something that I reach for, but I understand why people do. Like YouTube. I mean, I get it. I get why people do. So I don't know. It's just it's just for me, all the warbler songs are just kind of mid.

[1:41:43] Emilee: Wait, so are you gonna like even consider a list? Maybe no.

[1:41:49] Amelia: What? No, no, no. I mean, I could I could I know I know I know I did that's why I'm like come to be last. Right, but like you were saying that like teenage dream is coming up number one for you, like normal one or season four, the normal one if it's not warblers like the second one, right?

[1:42:11] Emilee: Right, right. Because if I had to pick between them, then I'd pick the season four.

[1:42:14] Amelia: Oh, I'm with you on that. I think yeah, I think that the season two teenage dream obviously iconic moment for television. That's why I think that's why I think for me it's number one because it was like such a moment, such like a holy cow, this is something new we've never seen.

[1:42:31] Emilee: Right.

[1:42:32] Amelia: But for me, the charm wore off really fast. But I get why people who are into because I'm not like a huge, I'm not super huge into like boy bands or groups, like I wasn't a one directioner, I wasn't like no button.

[1:42:46] Emilee: Neither am I, Emily, but like I still can say that like silly love songs, and I know that like that has been dead for a while on the Glacket. Love that girl down so bad. I think she is so beautiful to me.

[1:43:00] Amelia: Sure, sure. I sure say she's okay.

[1:43:07] Emilee: I hope you're not listening to silly love songs. That's okay. She's gone, she's in a better place. No, but what I will say is the mall number. That one I really like.

[1:43:16] Amelia: Okay.

[1:43:18] Emilee: When I get you alone, don't agree.

[1:43:20] Amelia: See, that's see, because. But I think it's because you're like a really true warblers and Blaine Stan, whereas, like I I don't know, so maybe that's why I like that one more.

[1:43:31] Emilee: What's your number one, Amelia Warbler song?

[1:43:34] Amelia: Oh, I should have this on the top of my head, and I don't know. Wait, maybe we should finally consider a list.

[1:43:40] Emilee: Oh gosh. Okay, wait. Let me. I'm just gonna pull up like a Spotify.

[1:43:43] Amelia: Oh, well, okay. I apparently I don't. I've never ability to type today. Oh my gosh.

[1:43:51] Emilee: No, you're completely fine.

[1:43:52] Amelia: Okay, playlists. I just feel like I'm using it.

[1:43:56] Emilee: No, we need this, Emily. Wait, I'm like I'm gonna like say something, and then I'm gonna. Oh well. You know what I love that people don't is my dark side. I'll obsess with her.

[1:44:06] Amelia: That's my husband's favorite Glee song. I don't think she's in round two.

[1:44:13] Emilee: No, she's not, and for good reason. I don't like her.

[1:44:16] Amelia: Okay.

[1:44:18] Emilee: I don't like that girl. I hope you're listening. My dark side. Stay away from me. You are out of here.

[1:44:24] Amelia: It's a good one though. I might say that misery is my favorite warbler's number.

[1:44:30] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:44:31] Amelia: Wait, it's like let me know. I'm looking at a list.

[1:44:34] Emilee: You're looking, you're looking at it. Do you want to go through the lists right now just for everybody at home?

[1:44:39] Amelia: Yeah. So I don't know if it's in order or not, whatever. But it's Teeny's Dream, Hazel Sister, Bills Bills, Bills, When I Get You Alone, Silly Love Songs, Animal, Misery, Blackbird, Candles, Brazier Glass, Summer Only We Know. What kind of fool do you think I'm sexy? Which I guess is not clackett, but whatever. Um, Uptown Girl, Bad, Smooth Criminal, Stand, Glad You Came, My Dark Side, Whistle, Live While We're Young, Sing My Sharona, You Spin Me Round.

[1:45:14] Emilee: There were a few that made some major points to me. Bill's Bills Bills, Misery, Silly Love Songs, Glad You Came. I think are like the ones that like stuck out to me.

[1:45:29] Amelia: Somewhere we somewhere on Limino. Somewhere we go sometimes.

[1:45:33] Emilee: Oh, see, see, you know what? Like, I know I would vote for that simply because of the Allison of it all.

[1:45:42] Amelia: Yeah.

[1:45:43] Emilee: But I I like it, but I don't think that it's a good idea. I feel like I also consider that way less of a warbler song.

[1:45:51] Amelia: That's what I was gonna say. I forget that it's a warbler's. That's why I was like, I do like that one.

[1:45:56] Emilee: Okay. Yeah. But I know that the warblers like soundtracks kind of had like Smooth Criminal too, kind of had like features of warbler y people.

[1:46:05] Amelia: Right, right, right.

[1:46:07] Emilee: And I like even shout out to like Blackbird, you know?

[1:46:10] Amelia: Yeah. A rare warbler colour.

[1:46:13] Emilee: Yeah. None of those songs are bad by any means. Like that is a good list.

[1:46:18] Amelia: Wait, Amelia, you just made a face. What's going on?

[1:46:20] Emilee: I well she said none of those songs are bad. Campbell's is on that list. Um, I am not a big Blackbird girl.

[1:46:28] Amelia: I don't know. I like the sentiment. I don't know that I'm a fan of the performance.

[1:46:35] Emilee: I think it's good. I think it's good. I like it more than I want to hold your hand, which I feel like is the obvious comparison.

[1:46:41] Amelia: Right.

[1:46:43] Emilee: But I I feel like that's between us, it's obviously fine. But I think out in the outside world, everyone is like, no. Don't want to hold your hand. Please. Please come for me instead.

[1:46:57] Amelia: Emily's DMs are open and ready.

[1:46:59] Emilee: Yes, they are. I want to fight.

[1:47:02] Amelia: Um, I'm obviously really putting off seeing what misery is going to be against. I just want to be a little bit more.

[1:47:09] Emilee: I hope we fight.

[1:47:11] Amelia: Yeah. See? I'm scared. Dig deep in that cup.

[1:47:15] Emilee: I know. I'm really, really shaking it up. An audio medium. You can hear that.

[1:47:19] Amelia: I can we can hear the shaking.

[1:47:21] Emilee: Okay, wait. Here. Want it to be like very blatant. Here we go.

[1:47:27] Amelia: Oh, this is a fun competition.

[1:47:31] Emilee: Okay, I think it's literally from finally like a good competition. I am so bereft of these.

[1:47:40] Amelia: Um this is from the same episode as um misery, actually, in round one.

[1:47:47] Emilee: It's original.

[1:47:48] Amelia: Oh, oh, oh.

[1:47:49] Emilee: I think we're gonna say it's original song, and I was no, it's not from original song, but it is from um, I believe that it was from Luke's episode in um round one.

[1:48:01] Amelia: I have to say, I don't think I like either of those songs.

[1:48:04] Emilee: Wait, we'll see.

[1:48:05] Amelia: We'll see.

[1:48:06] Emilee: It's chasing pavements and happy.

[1:48:08] Amelia: Chasing pavements and happy.

[1:48:09] Emilee: And I said it was a hard competition, so you know it's oh, it's chasing pavements, it's chasing pavements.

[1:48:14] Amelia: That's crazy.

[1:48:16] Emilee: I've made up my mind. Don't need to think it over if I'm wrong.

[1:48:23] Amelia: I am right.

[1:48:25] Emilee: Don't need to look no further. This ain't lust.

[1:48:30] Amelia: I know this is a love bye.

[1:48:39] Emilee: If I tell the world, I'll never say enough, cause it was not said to you.

[1:48:47] Amelia: And that's exactly what I need to do if I under with you.

[1:48:57] Emilee: Should I give up? Or should I just keep chasing pavements?

[1:49:03] Amelia: Even if it leaves no way Would it be a waste?

[1:49:10] Emilee: Even if I knew my place. Should I leave it there?

[1:49:16] Amelia: Should I give up? Or should I just keep chasing pavements?

[1:49:23] Emilee: Even if it leaves no way.

[1:49:28] Amelia: Yeah.

[1:49:31] Emilee: Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements?

[1:49:37] Amelia: Even if it leads no way.

[1:49:42] Emilee: Or would it be a waste?

[1:49:45] Amelia: Even if I knew my place. Should I leave it there?

[1:49:51] Emilee: What's wrong? You sound sad.

[1:49:53] Amelia: I lied. I'm not okay.

[1:49:56] Emilee: Keep on chasing.

[1:49:59] Amelia: I miss you and I miss everything just.

[1:50:08] Emilee: Oh man! My dance teacher is a monster, and I I can't even go into my dorm room because my roommate is sleeping with the entire school.

[1:50:24] Amelia: Maybe you should move out and find a new roommate.

[1:50:27] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:50:29] Amelia: Turn around.

[1:50:31] Emilee: Shut up.

[1:50:32] Amelia: Keep on.

[1:50:34] Emilee: Chase entity.

[1:50:39] Amelia: There's no way.

[1:50:46] Emilee: Okay.

[1:50:48] Amelia: I'm really I was thinking the entire time. I'm like, what is everyone gonna vote for? I feel like judging on everybody's reactions, it's really up in the air.

[1:50:58] Emilee: I oh I like forget about the scene at the end, and then I'm like, I But I'm not reaching for this MP3.

[1:51:08] Amelia: Right.

[1:51:09] Emilee: And I don't want to talk, I don't want to start off this conversation about voting. I wanna I'm gonna obviously keep that to the end.

[1:51:16] Amelia: Um, but does anybody have any general thoughts that they would like to share about chasing pavements, Glee Cast versus Mike Lee Cass?

[1:51:22] Emilee: I have a few.

[1:51:23] Amelia: Go ahead.

[1:51:24] Emilee: I mean, they're not like that. Well, my first thing was like, I was like, I think this is the only time we've ever seen the new directions rehears.

[1:51:31] Amelia: Right, right, right.

[1:51:32] Emilee: Exactly. I think that's the only time they've ever blocked choreography on the stage.

[1:51:38] Amelia: I love Mr. Schuster going, like, Blaine, you're gonna be right there. And I'm like, boy. Okay. This check is clearing for that and that alone.

[1:51:48] Emilee: I I don't like I've not, I as I said, I'm probably not reaching for this MP3. And I I don't think that the video is particularly exciting except for the Kurt and Rachel moment.

[1:52:05] Amelia: I'm Emily's like holding her tongue.

[1:52:08] Emilee: Wait, no.

[1:52:11] Amelia: I feel like I've been talking way too much. Emily, go ahead.

[1:52:14] Emily: So I have tears in my eyes right now. This makes me.

[1:52:19] Amelia: Okay, so Andrew, I know you're a big Adele fan.

[1:52:22] Emilee: I am also a very big Adele fan, and I reach for this MP3 over Adele's every time.

[1:52:28] Amelia: I would say they're like kind of like in the same.

[1:52:30] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:52:32] Amelia: I got chills when Blaine went to reach for Marley, and I don't know why, of it just being a, you know, like knowing, and I am not a Marley fan, right? Like I am not, I am her. It's not, she's not for me, but this number is for me.

[1:52:48] Emilee: Um, when he went to reach for her and brought her into the group, it was just like a chill went through my body. Just like just, you know, being in those situations and not feeling like you're a part of it and joining a group that's well established.

[1:53:03] Amelia: And then the whole Kurt and Rachel of it all, I mean that just every time I'm like we mess over here.

[1:53:10] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:53:10] Amelia: Um, so I I this this for this does it for me.

[1:53:14] Emilee: This is the speaking of the Kurt and Rachel, I feel like I can't listen. And maybe this is even like went in like sept its way through to the Adele version that like I can't listen to the song without interjecting the Kurt and Rachel phone call.

[1:53:34] Amelia: It's like my roommate's sleeping with the entire school.

[1:53:37] Emilee: My dad's a monster.

[1:53:40] Amelia: Maybe it should find a new roommate.

[1:53:42] Emilee: Yeah, okay. Turn around.

[1:53:45] Amelia: Like it's it's so ingrained, and I feel like for a while with these these performances, I was like, they're having a conversation during the performance.

[1:53:57] Emilee: Like, I'm thinking of like, I'm not gonna teach your boyfriend how to dance with you.

[1:54:01] Amelia: Um, and I'm like, is that a detriment against the song, or if is it actually bringing it to another level?

[1:54:08] Emilee: And I feel like in both of those songs' cases, I think it's like bringing it to the next level.

[1:54:14] Amelia: Um I agree. I think that there's like conversation during like dinosaur, which is like a poor example, but like that conversation is not doing any favors for that song, you know?

[1:54:26] Emilee: Right, right, right.

[1:54:26] Amelia: So I I do love are I think I know where this is going, and I I don't know.

[1:54:37] Emilee: Well, Andrew, it's cut it comes down to you, I fear.

[1:54:41] Amelia: It I think so.

[1:54:42] Emilee: Wait, isn't there more conversation to be had? Do we not have anything else to say?

[1:54:45] Amelia: I don't have so much to say about it.

[1:54:47] Emilee: Um I could listen to this all day. I mean, this is on my like maybe not top 10, but top 20, top 25.

[1:54:57] Amelia: Okay.

[1:54:57] Emilee: 100%. I mean, this this is this is probably one of, if not one of the only Marley songs that I really like because she is just not for me.

[1:55:06] Amelia: That's so true. And I'm so glad that you brought that up, Emily, because I feel like the other Marlolos are like not giving what they should, unfortunately.

[1:55:17] Emilee: I like I'm thinking like First Noel, obviously not in round two.

[1:55:21] Amelia: Right.

[1:55:21] Emilee: Um Wrecking Ball, which I think is round two, but like I'm not I'm not crazy about her.

[1:55:27] Amelia: Um I love New York's state of mind with Rachel. I mean, this episode gave me so much hope for this character that I was like, ooh, two for two in this episode. Like, I am really excited, and then it just didn't do any more for me.

[1:55:40] Emilee: Right.

[1:55:41] Amelia: The Marley, like, I really liked her after this episode. And then there was like a I feel like a few for the first few episodes of season four. I was like, I like this girl a lot. But then it like fizzled out and she got kind of repetitive. But I speaking of the new Rachel specifically, Emily, I remember like at one point you were going to be doing like an episode Glacket, right?

[1:56:04] Emily: Oh my god, yes.

[1:56:05] Amelia: And I want to, but I think it's gonna have to wait until your show is over because I moved across the country. I changed careers. It just never happened, but yes.

[1:56:14] Emilee: I feel as though New Rachel would really fare well in an episode Glacket.

[1:56:19] Amelia: I love this episode.

[1:56:21] Emilee: I agree, and I'm not a huge, you know, I am I am more of a fan of the first three seasons versus the last three seasons, but that one would be definitely high up on the list in my opinion.

[1:56:33] Amelia: It's good. And I think I was like thinking about watching home as we did earlier in the Zoom recording, and I was like, it this chasing pavements in a way gives a little bit of the same vibes where it's like preparing you for a season that we know is kind of gonna let us down a little bit. It's not going to be able to like keep up that stamina. Um anyway, I'm obviously putting off. Oh, I have one final legal note. I feel like it's maybe with everyone already knows, but this performance is giving Don't Stop Believing with um Jake walking in. I like a little homage. Um but yeah.

[1:57:13] Emilee: I don't know. Where are we falling on? It's it's gonna come down to me, I fear.

[1:57:18] Andrew: Yeah.

[1:57:19] Emilee: I think you are correct.

[1:57:21] Andrew: Okay. Can we just say what the votes are?

[1:57:24] Emilee: I'm good.

[1:57:26] Andrew: Uh I'm going chasing pavements.

[1:57:28] Emilee: And I'm going misery.

[1:57:30] Amelia: Oh Andrew, break my heart and I'll move on. I'll be a whole person.

[1:57:34] Emilee: It's okay. I just I would be a shattered mess.

[1:57:38] Amelia: It's so disappointing. Because it's like I ask for these hard competitions, and then I'm like, oh darn.

[1:57:44] Emilee: We are.

[1:57:47] Amelia: Um yeah. I think I need to I need to follow. I'm a daydreamer through and through. I hate that Adele fans are called that, but that's what we are.

[1:57:56] Emilee: Um and chasing pavements. You're you're going to round three, baby.

[1:58:02] Andrew: Is this the only Adele song left? Am I wrong?

[1:58:04] Emilee: Well, Roll Rumor has it.

[1:58:07] Amelia: Oh, damn rolling in the deep, right?

[1:58:09] Emilee: Yeah.

[1:58:12] Andrew: Emily, what are you doing here exactly?

[1:58:14] Emily: No. Am I even a fan of the show? My God.

[1:58:18] Amelia: Um to recap this episode. Um, we found love, but not in round three.

[1:58:27] Emilee: Home.

[1:58:28] Amelia: Um, your home is in round three of the Glackett. We'll see how much longer you you fare.

[1:58:35] Emilee: Popular. I already made this joke earlier. You didn't win the popular vote.

[1:58:39] Amelia: Um, staying alive, that's exactly what you're doing, baby.

[1:58:43] Emilee: Yeah. Round three, here you come.

[1:58:46] Amelia: Misery, that's exactly the emotion that you're feeling. And chasing pavements all the way to round three. I feel like they really lent themselves to the jokes this week.

[1:58:59] Emilee: They did, yeah.

[1:58:59] Amelia: It was they wrote themselves.

[1:59:01] Emilee: Yeah. Um end of the episode. Would love to hear who wants to start us in if Glee was on in 2024. What you think they would be doing your headcanon.

[1:59:16] Amelia: I have a long list, so Emily, you could—

[1:59:16] Emilee: No, I was just gonna say, Amelia, you should go first because we just broke your heart.

[1:59:22] Amelia: Oh, okay. Okay, I'll um so last time I was on, I said Pitbull. I stand by that. Very stand by it.

[1:59:28] Emily: I have no recollection of the last time we recorded. I feel like I would have remembered that you said it went back.

[1:59:35] Amelia: I went back.

[1:59:36] Emily: Okay. Okay, I said I also um bring it on. Which I think.

[1:59:44] Amelia: Okay. So top of my list, obviously Olivia Rodrigo. Like whatever.

[1:59:49] Emilee: Um my new one is Noah Khan. I think they would do a ton of Noah Khan. Especially when like at the end of season six, Sam was like, country, and then they would get more into the like I don't know music. The country pop that's becoming popular.

[2:00:05] Amelia: Yeah.

[2:00:06] Emilee: Okay. Yeah. Like a huge Noah Khan fan, I think they would do Noah Khan.

[2:00:09] Amelia: I have in my notes Brittany would slight hate McCrae.

[2:00:13] Emilee: Okay.

[2:00:13] Amelia: I think that like the dancey, like fun numbers. Yeah. Yesterday I was listening to my Broadway playlist on a drive, and I think Clayne would do therapy from Tic Tic Boom when they're in like a fight.

[2:00:25] Emilee: Oh.

[2:00:26] Amelia: That was my inspiring. I really love that actually.

[2:00:29] Emilee: I was like, I was like hearing it in my head, and I thought I was good. And then yesterday I just saw a TikTok comment that said Finn would be doing I'm just Ken. And I was like, I don't know, but I thought we should like bring it into the conversation.

[2:00:45] Amelia: Oh I think it's it lends itself very easily to Sam.

[2:00:51] Emilee: But that makes a lot more sense.

[2:00:53] Amelia: But I don't know.

[2:00:55] Emilee: Yeah, I feel like it would be Sam, right?

[2:00:58] Amelia: Yeah. No, yes.

[2:00:59] Emilee: Okay. I think it would be Sam when Finn is no longer like when either he's he's in New York or when like Finn is not immediately in his life, because I think he kind of feels like he kind of has to take over that like leadership aspect. But I definitely see Sam as more of a Ken type.

[2:01:16] Amelia: Yeah.

[2:01:21] Emilee: But I would I could I could hear Finn do it too though.

[2:01:23] Amelia: Oh, for sure. And I think like even like visualizing what it would look like on Glee is so fun. I think that they would really go all out too.

[2:01:32] Emilee: Well they could just do like they did at the Oscars.

[2:01:35] Amelia: Exactly.

[2:01:36] Emilee: Something very, very fun.

[2:01:37] Amelia: Yeah, I love it. Did you watch that?

[2:01:39] Emilee: I literally that's the only thing I suppose.

[2:01:43] Amelia: That's all that if my mom is born in your one in.

[2:01:46] Emilee: Did you I was like, I got halfway through and I was like kind of bored, and my mom was like, go watch it. It's like okay. So I did watch it.

[2:01:52] Amelia: I think that's good. I was gonna say if you didn't watch anything else, at least watch that.

[2:01:57] Emilee: Yes.

[2:01:58] Amelia: Uh do you have anything else on your your list to go through?

[2:02:01] Emilee: That completes the list.

[2:02:03] Amelia: Incredible. Emily, what are we thinking?

[2:02:06] Emily: So um last time I had kind of said like things from late 90s, early aughts. I kind of still feel the same way with that, but specifically, I think it would really be cool if they did like an episode of like actresses who ventured into music. Like um Hillary Duff, Lindsay Lohan, Mandy Moore, Jessica Simpson, Ashley Simpson, just kind of these like one hit wonders who like totally flopped in their music careers.

[2:02:37] Amelia: Oh, I love this.

[2:02:39] Emily: Um, but specifically, I want to see Tina sing pieces of me by Ashley Simpson.

[2:02:44] Amelia: Right. Doing like, oh my god, could you imagine her doing um like the SNL performance of just like kind of like wandering around stage?

[2:02:52] Emily: Right, right, where they play, they play on that or something. It's supposed to be some performance, and she's decided kind of like it on TikTok. But then release a full, you know, version of it.

[2:03:05] Amelia: Yeah, it's it's not gonna be revolution gate all over again.

[2:03:08] Emily: Sure, sure.

[2:03:10] Amelia: Yeah. Another one I was thinking of, I think I mentioned Jason Moraz last time. They do a little bit, but he is he's got such a good discography. Um, the song If it kills me is one that I feel like Sam would do really well for singing towards Mercedes.

[2:03:26] Emily: Okay.

[2:03:27] Amelia: If you're not familiar with the song, it uh kind of just talks about like they'll do anything no matter what, even if it kills them to prove that they love the person.

[2:03:37] Emily: So kind of like maybe when they were having that fight where they weren't speaking to each other. Um that would be, you know, kind of where I thought. Um last one is a Christmas song.

[2:03:49] Amelia: Okay.

[2:03:50] Emily: Lord knows they've done enough Christmas songs, but they did my least favorite Christmas song, so I hope they do my favorite Christmas song. It's not Christmas rapping. Christmas rapping is my least favorite Christmas song. I hate that song.

[2:04:01] Amelia: Oh, wait, I feel like I am I'm well aware of this lore.

[2:04:06] Emily: Yeah. Oh I I'm catching up. It is, I just I don't know. It comes on every time and it makes me like violently ill. I hate it so much. I will only listen to the Glee version of it though. Like I love a silver one.

[2:04:19] Amelia: It's so good. I mean, I'm Jewish, I don't do so much Christmas music.

[2:04:24] Emily: So like no, that's fair. But I feel like you know. I feel like Christmas rapping, and maybe like weirdly, like, is it baby it's cold outside? Like has like a chance for a round three. Christmas rapping is already seeing light of day in round three.

[2:04:38] Amelia: Yes.

[2:04:38] Emily: But like I feel like the only other Christmas song without considering every single one has like maybe it's cold outside. Isn't there one more that from the beginning?

[2:04:50] Amelia: Well no, she's gonna say Comes Santa Claus is the first winner of a competition.

[2:04:55] Emily: Yeah, so that one could.

[2:04:58] Amelia: I like Here Comes Santa Claus, like I stand by it.

[2:05:02] Emily: It's cute.

[2:05:03] Amelia: Yeah, I love that one.

[2:05:04] Emily: Yeah. Wait, but Emily, what is your what is your song that you're doing?

[2:05:07] Emily: So the song that I wanted to add in is um it's a Dolly Parton Christmas song. It's called Hard Candy Christmas.

[2:05:12] Amelia: Okay.

[2:05:15] Emily: It's it's kind of random, but if if you haven't heard it, again, good song. Um, but it it's kind of a sad Christmas song, and it's talking about like maybe instead of doing Christmas this year, I'll do all these other things because the person I love is gone. And I think Rachel would that would be a really good Rachel song after her like her first Christmas without Finn.

[2:05:35] Amelia: Okay.

[2:05:36] Emily: So kind of bringing it more to that real, you know.

[2:05:40] Amelia: Yeah, there were like there's like a number of like Christmas songs that in hindsight I'm very surprised that they didn't do. Like Underneath the Tree is like such a like iconic Christmas song that I'm like, why didn't they do that?

[2:05:57] Emily: That's such a good one.

[2:05:58] Amelia: Yeah, that's like forget that Rachel is Jewish in all the Christmas episodes.

[2:06:02] Emily: Right. I mean Yeah. Yes, I do forget that. And that's why, like I was thinking, you know, oh, that would be a good Rachel one, so maybe that wouldn't be for her. But maybe that could be a no, she would do it anyway.

[2:06:15] Amelia: Yeah, she would do it anyway. She would forget.

[2:06:17] Emily: Right. She would forget. Because she celebrated Christmas stuff with Finn. That's kind of crazy.

[2:06:23] Amelia: Yeah.

[2:06:23] Emily: But yeah, those are my picks. Just, you know, just some kind of random.

[2:06:28] Amelia: I love it. I need to I need to listen to this Dolly Parton song.

[2:06:33] Emily: Oh, it's the best. It's my favorite. Um, thank you so much, Amelia and Emily, for being our Gleeks this week. I knew this would be iconic, and I was right. Guess what? Um, Emily, starting with you, if any of the glisteners want to find you, uh, where can they do that?

[2:06:51] Emily: So I am on TikTok and Instagram as Emily C17. So that's spelled E M-I-L-E-E-C-E-E 17. And that's pretty much all over all the platforms, but mainly TikTok and Instagram.
