Speaker 1: And that's what you really missed with Jenna.
Speaker 2: And Kevin an iHeartRadio podcast.
Speaker 1: Welcome to and that's what you read in this podcast.
Speaker 1: I am Jenna, And now is my second take of
Speaker 1: that intro.
Speaker 2: I am Kevin. Things are going very well today. Today
Speaker 2: we have one of my favorite TikTokers who just a
Speaker 2: ray of sunshine. He is absolute joy on TikTok. I
Speaker 2: feel like I have seen him grow if you followed
Speaker 2: him for you know, the past couple of years we
Speaker 2: all have, and he has just become this really wonderful
Speaker 2: outlet of you know, he shares his life, the ups
Speaker 2: and downs and all those things, and he's just so
Speaker 2: wonderful and I'm so happy to finally get to meet him.
Speaker 2: I've only ever spoken to him or seen him online.
Speaker 1: He's very funny. He's also a very good host.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a good skill that we should learn sometime.
Speaker 2: Given why learn now?
Speaker 1: Just like quit while you're behind?
Speaker 2: Yeah, like we've gotten this far being mediocre, we might
Speaker 2: as well just keep phoning it. Today we have just Max,
Speaker 2: the one and only Max. He's just Max, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and he has some really really good memory.
Speaker 2: So and he is legitimately one of the biggest gleeks
Speaker 2: I I think exists that I've ever encountered, like, legitimately
Speaker 2: started TikTok because of Glee Bring It, which is insane.
Speaker 2: So enough of us, here's Max.
Speaker 3: Hello, Hello, Hello, Oh my god, I'm so ready. I'm
Speaker 3: so excited.
Speaker 2: This feels very surreal. I feel like I've been watching
Speaker 2: you for forever in a non creepy way.
Speaker 3: Been watching you since I was about ten in a
Speaker 3: creepy way.
Speaker 1: So yeah, we love that.
Speaker 2: We raised you good, we raised you. Thank you for
Speaker 2: being up late and you know, chatting with us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm usually I'm about I'm heading out off to this.
Speaker 2: So wow, miss London so much.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just as cold, it's just like brand new.
Speaker 3: It's nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not dependable, you know. Yeah, when we were
Speaker 2: talking about who some of like because we do a
Speaker 2: segment called shit, we found a TikTok like, well, we
Speaker 2: have to have TikTokers on And obviously you and I
Speaker 2: have been TikTok friends for a hot minute now in
Speaker 2: a creepy way, in a completely creepy way, completely, but
Speaker 2: I feel like I have seen you grow into this,
Speaker 2: you know, you're a brand. Now, you're a corporation, you're
Speaker 2: a whole thing. You bought a house, you.
Speaker 3: Did, I'm all of these things tied up into one. Yeah,
Speaker 3: very crazy. And I started the reason when I started TikTok,
Speaker 3: I was making videos about Glee. That was my start
Speaker 3: into TikTok.
Speaker 1: Wow, you're welcome, so.
Speaker 2: You get a percentage of everything you do.
Speaker 3: Actually shot up at my house.
Speaker 2: IRS.
Speaker 1: So you started talking about Glee on your tic tac.
Speaker 1: What was the impetus though for you to download tic tac? Like,
Speaker 1: was it like I'm gonna start posting I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: famous on this thing? Like what was kind of your
Speaker 1: intent on downloading me app?
Speaker 3: That's opposite, I reiterate. I was posting Glee content, all right.
Speaker 3: I was not. I was not thinking this is going
Speaker 3: to be my career. All of my friends got it,
Speaker 3: and at first I was like, oh, I'm not getting
Speaker 3: that app.
Speaker 1: That's my little sister.
Speaker 3: Had it, and I was like, don't make me sick,
Speaker 3: right now, that's weird, And then yeah, I got it,
Speaker 3: and I very quickly, I mean, TikTok's really interesting, very
Speaker 3: quickly finds out your weird niches very quickly into like
Speaker 3: oval shaped tables, and you will be on oval shaped
Speaker 3: table talk. You just will as a deeply homosexual individual.
Speaker 3: My niche was, of course Glee I hate. And then
Speaker 3: I was like, everybody's making like videos about like oh
Speaker 3: my gosh, and Glee changed my life because of this,
Speaker 3: and you know, it was so empowering to see like
Speaker 3: Kurt Homo's character like and then I was like, guys,
Speaker 3: Glee is one of the weirdest TV shows. Nobody is
Speaker 3: bringing awareness to this. So I started a bold series
Speaker 3: that I'd completely forgotten what it was called until not
Speaker 3: twenty minutes ago when I searched it times that the
Speaker 3: TV show Glee was questionable.
Speaker 2: I think that's how I found you too. I think
Speaker 2: I ended up accidentally on Glee Talk, which I didn't
Speaker 2: know existed. I was like, well, he's funny.
Speaker 3: Oh I remember, it's so old. There was like me
Speaker 3: and like three other people in the entire world. I
Speaker 3: just found clips of me lip sync into Sylvest on
Speaker 3: the Internet that I didn't remember doing.
Speaker 2: Oh that's how we feel, going back and watching Glee.
Speaker 4: Likely from your memory, honestly, And I even wore like
Speaker 4: a zip up add this jacket.
Speaker 3: I don't know where I bought that in the pandemic.
Speaker 2: But committed to your craft, Max, you know that's right,
Speaker 2: That's why you are where you are.
Speaker 3: That's why I'm in this very average three star hotel
Speaker 3: room right now. And then, it honestly was just such
Speaker 3: a natural progression. I had no idea number one, that
Speaker 3: it would be like a career for me. If you
Speaker 3: can't tell I did ultimately stop making Glee videos. Even
Speaker 3: though I did, I do frequently comment on them. Yeah,
Speaker 3: And honestly, like I described my career as like a
Speaker 3: complete accident, like it ended up accidentally happening because not
Speaker 3: many people were there's not a big influencer culture in
Speaker 3: the UK like in America. Oh my gosh. I went
Speaker 3: to LA It was the most shocking thing ever. People
Speaker 3: came up to me, so how many followers do you have?
Speaker 3: And I was like, gross, I know, but like it's
Speaker 3: just because it's so much more normalized over there, whereas
Speaker 3: in the UK. I'd never met a UK influencer. Like,
Speaker 3: it wasn't really something that I dreamtalk for myself. And
Speaker 3: I feel very lucky that I was just a weird
Speaker 3: or obsessed with Glee during the pandemic because here I am.
Speaker 1: So you you host and you're a very good host.
Speaker 1: What is that something that you wanted to do or
Speaker 1: did that also kind of stem from TikTok? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Literally, I'd say for the first year of doing TikTok,
Speaker 3: I actually worked full time at Loreal shout out great,
Speaker 3: great times, and they didn't know that I had a
Speaker 3: TikTok account at all. I'd gained about like five hundred
Speaker 3: thousand followers and then I got into a public beef
Speaker 3: with a footballer's wife on Twitter. Ridiculous thing in the
Speaker 3: entire world. You probably don't know who Rebecca Boardy is,
Speaker 3: but that is a deep like UK reference Daily Mail
Speaker 3: wrote an article on it, and I think they were
Speaker 3: literally like, this boy right makes Glee TikTok videos and
Speaker 3: he's arguing with Rebecca Bardi or something I think the
Speaker 3: Daily Mail. And then my boss called me into his
Speaker 3: office and I was like, I'm going to get fired,
Speaker 3: this is it? Like what am I going to do?
Speaker 3: And instead they just gave me more like social media
Speaker 3: responsibilities in the company because I had it was amazing.
Speaker 2: They knew what was up, they knew they had a
Speaker 2: gold mind.
Speaker 1: With you there we go.
Speaker 3: But even then, that shows how little influencer culture that
Speaker 3: the fact that they saw, oh my gosh, this boy
Speaker 3: has a TikTok following and we don't know how to
Speaker 3: use it. Yeah right, And then as soon as that
Speaker 3: internship I got signed to a management, I hit a
Speaker 3: million followers, and then got signed to a management, and
Speaker 3: up until hitting a million followers, I'd not earned a
Speaker 3: single penny from social media nothing, which is crazy because
Speaker 3: I never pursued it as a goal because I just
Speaker 3: didn't see it for myself.
Speaker 2: Well, also, I think Pandemic sort of expedited what an
Speaker 2: influencer can be because I feel like with the advent
Speaker 2: of TikTok and then everybody sitting at home being like, whoa,
Speaker 2: there's nothing else to do where very quickly it went
Speaker 2: from what we thought right like Instagram where everything's perfect
Speaker 2: and curated and it has to be like these six
Speaker 2: foot three beautiful skinny models and yeah, like you, which
Speaker 2: is why it worked out for you, but for other
Speaker 2: people like us, Yeah, very quickly it was like almost
Speaker 2: the more niche, the more you you are, Like that's
Speaker 2: what everybody was responding to.
Speaker 3: Well, it's very personality driven now whereas in the past
Speaker 3: it was either like you had a lavish lifestyle that
Speaker 3: people aspired to or you have to. And then the
Speaker 3: holesting thing kind of came along because I was gaining
Speaker 3: a lot of followers based on my personality and just
Speaker 3: like being out there. So then the one of the
Speaker 3: biggest radio stations in the UK that called Reradio or one,
Speaker 3: they invited me to do a red carpet with them,
Speaker 3: and I had no experience whatsoever. I'd never even held
Speaker 3: a microphone in.
Speaker 2: My life, Like, what was the red carpet it was for?
Speaker 3: It was for like one of their events, like every
Speaker 3: year they do like just like a promo event for artists,
Speaker 3: like big artists. I think you call it. Guys call
Speaker 3: it like like the bat some sort of ball, like
Speaker 3: summer ball, like a artists just basically calm and then
Speaker 3: it's just to get like radio promo for the year.
Speaker 3: I was there like with my phone on a tripod
Speaker 3: and a random microphone that I'd bought of Amazon, and
Speaker 3: I was like interviewing these massive celebs and then from
Speaker 3: there it just had it like a trickle down effect,
Speaker 3: and honestly, I was just so lucky right place, right time.
Speaker 3: I had no experience. I still have no experience, but
Speaker 3: I'm just it shows that you just get thrown into
Speaker 3: a situation, adapt and like do it.
Speaker 2: You either snink or swim. Some people get to Some
Speaker 2: people get in that situation and flail and freak out
Speaker 2: and not know what to do.
Speaker 3: Best believe that the first interview of the day on
Speaker 3: that day was by far the hardest. It was an
Speaker 3: artist who was just not willing to answer questions. That's
Speaker 3: the worst. They had an open bond nearby, and I
Speaker 3: went to my boyfriend. I was like, any please, just
Speaker 3: don't get me a lemonade.
Speaker 1: I just made it really quickly to just like get
Speaker 1: through this next.
Speaker 3: Bit, and then I was loving it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like speed dating exactly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know. I have such like a passion for it.
Speaker 3: It's like it's like a skill that I didn't know
Speaker 3: I have. Sure, So I just feel so grateful, and
Speaker 3: I'm also equally confused as.
Speaker 2: To how I you are so good at it though
Speaker 2: it is such a skill. I've been put in situations
Speaker 2: where I had to I auditioned to be the host
Speaker 2: of X Factor US and I had never done anything
Speaker 2: like that. I completely bond like it was so and
Speaker 2: I was with all of these other people who do
Speaker 2: it on all the entertainment shows. Here it was all
Speaker 2: of them and me and Chloe Kardashian, and I was like,
Speaker 2: I don't know what. And I was just so like
Speaker 2: starstruck and intimidated. So you didn't fall into the trap
Speaker 2: that I did. I was like, I can't. And I
Speaker 2: was someone who had been on TV for years already.
Speaker 2: My good, this isn't what I do. I don't know
Speaker 2: how to do this.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. As if you were a piece of
Speaker 3: the iconic time when Chloe Kardashian was the x bactor
Speaker 3: holes and I think it was Demi. The botto had
Speaker 3: like a golder or something of a fifth harmony wild
Speaker 3: times very niche reference.
Speaker 2: But yeah, well I didn't get it. I had to
Speaker 2: like pull Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk aside, be like, hey,
Speaker 2: can I audition for this? And they're like, yeah, you
Speaker 2: want to.
Speaker 1: I was like, yes, I wanted you to get that
Speaker 1: so badly. Yeah.
Speaker 2: But see, if Max had the opportunity, he would have
Speaker 2: gotten the gig.
Speaker 3: I probably would have had to either physically assault or
Speaker 3: poison Chloe Kardashian to get.
Speaker 1: Oh, my goodness. Okay, so you've said you were ten
Speaker 1: when you started watching Tell me the truth. What was
Speaker 1: your your first experience with watching the show? Where were you?
Speaker 1: Did you watch it when it first came out, which
Speaker 1: you probably were really, really young, So just tell me
Speaker 1: your story.
Speaker 3: I was actually in year six, which means that I
Speaker 3: would have been either like nine, ten or eleven, like
Speaker 3: around that age.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 3: Sorry, I remember me and my older sister were watching.
Speaker 3: There was a channel in the UK that I don't
Speaker 3: even think exists anymore, called for remember TV channels.
Speaker 2: By the way, I loved if I had all the
Speaker 2: best teen shows. Yeah, yeah, my Mad Fat Diary, Oh.
Speaker 3: My god, yes, iconic. And she was just in the
Speaker 3: Barber movie.
Speaker 2: Did you say, Oh, she's in everything? Oh yes, sharing
Speaker 2: is the Queen.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, obsess. But yeah, So the TV advert
Speaker 3: was there for Glee, and all that it included was
Speaker 3: Rachel saying like I'm born to be a star. It's
Speaker 3: something along those sides, and then she gets a slush
Speaker 3: thrown in her face. It was like five seconds long,
Speaker 3: and me and my sister were like, that looks hilarious,
Speaker 3: like we need to watch that.
Speaker 2: Watch it.
Speaker 3: Then it became a bit of an unhealthy obsession for
Speaker 3: both of us. Like we then proceeded to watch it
Speaker 3: every single week for like well until it finished. And yeah,
Speaker 3: it was very much like mine and my older sister's
Speaker 3: ritual that we would watch it together. I for a
Speaker 3: good like two years, I got away with having my
Speaker 3: mom's credit card details on my iTunes account, and after
Speaker 3: every single episode, I just buy every song that was
Speaker 3: on it. And yeah, she was pumid off humid after that.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of music.
Speaker 2: It's a lot of music, and.
Speaker 3: Yeah, honestly, the rest is history. Even when my sister
Speaker 3: went to university, she would like we would deliberately not
Speaker 3: watch it so that we could either call each other
Speaker 3: to watch it. Oh, it was like a deep like
Speaker 3: like even now when we talk about our childhood, that
Speaker 3: was like the thing that really bonded us because she's
Speaker 3: she's eight years older than me, so like we did
Speaker 3: a lot in common as people. And weirdly, then my
Speaker 3: mom had another child or no, I'm jucking o, my god,
Speaker 3: my mom is a very respectable woman.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I said that.
Speaker 1: We love your mom. We love your mom.
Speaker 2: It's like my mom too. I'm my sister who's the
Speaker 2: oldest and me are sixteen years apart. Yes, like what
Speaker 2: like what are you doing?
Speaker 3: My mom had children like so stupidly, like as soon
Speaker 3: as one was able to fend for itself, she had
Speaker 3: another one.
Speaker 1: And I enjoy yourself.
Speaker 3: Love you deserve it. Even my younger sister when she
Speaker 3: was learning to speak, the one song that we would
Speaker 3: have because all the iTunes like library that I downloaded
Speaker 3: over the years then got like passed on to like
Speaker 3: when she was like five and got an iPad for
Speaker 3: the first.
Speaker 2: Time, her inheritance was Glee music.
Speaker 3: Yes, it was literally barely even speak. She had like
Speaker 3: one tooth and she would attempt to sing all the
Speaker 3: words to is it Dancing with Myself that you sang?
Speaker 1: Yes, oh my gosh said.
Speaker 3: She would watch the video on YouTube over and over
Speaker 3: and over again, like on her iPad, and she just
Speaker 3: sit there like so it's it's literally become like a statement.
Speaker 3: We like force my parents to watch it. And my
Speaker 3: dad is like a fireman who was in the army,
Speaker 3: and we'd catch him watching like Kurk play football like downstairs.
Speaker 3: Became a real like big thing for my family, Like
Speaker 3: everybody knew that it was like Glee was like four rooms.
Speaker 2: So that's so sweet. Now there's a rumor that you
Speaker 2: had some Glee merch.
Speaker 3: I had we quilt cover.
Speaker 2: Yeah, talk about that, because this is the first I've
Speaker 2: heard of one of those.
Speaker 3: If it was official Glee merch, it might have been
Speaker 3: like black market Glee merch, right, And yeah, I mean
Speaker 3: I didn't. I think my sister. My sister got it
Speaker 3: for me along with a Jans. This this is how
Speaker 3: I knew that I was gay. Most boys had like
Speaker 3: Poulsters of like you know, Britney Spears on the white fact.
Speaker 3: Now that would have been equally as gay, wouldn't it.
Speaker 3: I had like a two meter long polster, so Sylvester,
Speaker 3: and yes, I had that polster. I had the quilt.
Speaker 3: I also had the matching pillow cases. And when I
Speaker 3: went to university, I found these and so I brought
Speaker 3: the pillow case with me to university. Somehow, during that
Speaker 3: year of university I didn't get a boyfriend.
Speaker 1: I don't know how.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was going to say, I bet that is
Speaker 2: not really helpful.
Speaker 3: It's really weird. I don't know what was what was wrong? Then?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Now when you were watching Glee, was it strange
Speaker 1: or had you seen other shows high school American high
Speaker 1: school shows before?
Speaker 3: Never, I'd never I wasn't that big of like I
Speaker 3: said that Glee was like the first series that I
Speaker 3: ever watched and like actively got into. Wow, I'd never
Speaker 3: really been so involved in something before, and I'd never
Speaker 3: seen anything like that, like my I mean, I mean,
Speaker 3: as you probably know, especially yu kevinc you've spent so
Speaker 3: much time over here, Like the British sense of humor
Speaker 3: is very like self aware, self deprecating, whereas a lot
Speaker 3: of like American like TV or like especially ones that
Speaker 3: are shot in high school are kind of the opposite
Speaker 3: of that. Whereas to have a show that had aspects
Speaker 3: of that and then would literally like mock itself so
Speaker 3: character like Sue just point out, like how the hell
Speaker 3: do you have no money? But you've like had the
Speaker 3: most elaborate jungle set for a performance. You just can't
Speaker 3: you just can't beat it, because that's what a lot
Speaker 3: of like British television was doing at the time, right,
Speaker 3: and the music's actually good, it's like so much going
Speaker 3: for it that in anything before maybe like high school music,
Speaker 3: I'd say high school muschool, but that's like fully for children,
Speaker 3: whereas Glee is so not for children. I was ten
Speaker 3: years old watching it. But then I watched it back
Speaker 3: and I'm like, no, wonder I am the way.
Speaker 1: That I am.
Speaker 2: You're not born gay. You just have to watch Glee.
Speaker 3: Absolutely okay.
Speaker 1: So when you did your your Glee tiktoks early on,
Speaker 1: if you remember anything of these unhinged storylines, what is
Speaker 1: one that you do remember that is severely opinion?
Speaker 3: Before this, looked at a few of my videos and
Speaker 3: I was struggling to find them on TikTok. I don't
Speaker 3: know why, but then I just sat there for about
Speaker 3: twenty minutes and just from memory, I want to read
Speaker 3: you the list that I generated, just from the top
Speaker 3: of my head.
Speaker 1: I can't wait.
Speaker 3: The first one is perhaps the most disturbing, and I
Speaker 3: don't know why I remember the exact park, but I did.
Speaker 3: In the episode previously uneared, Christmas Becky says, I have
Speaker 3: special needs, and one of my special needs is mouth
Speaker 3: sex with your face.
Speaker 1: Oh god, no, so bad on so many levels. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, Max is a really good that's really really good.
Speaker 3: Sue marrying herself. Of course, yes, it's going on there.
Speaker 2: And even though the Adida's wedding dress was incredible and she.
Speaker 1: Worked again right on tour. Yeah, okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 3: That's the best thing I've ever seen. Sue's parents being
Speaker 3: absent in her life because they were famous Nazi hunters.
Speaker 3: Why not Will Suster singing to Sue to try and
Speaker 3: seduce her? That was.
Speaker 1: I hated.
Speaker 3: That's the little like moments and she's looking at his ass.
Speaker 2: Well no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3: I'm so sorry to do this to you, but gangam
Speaker 3: style totally no.
Speaker 1: You're not doing anything.
Speaker 2: Nothing that she hasn't done to herself already.
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, Yes, okay, I need to ask you that
Speaker 3: off the back of bringing that up, are you are
Speaker 3: you okay?
Speaker 1: I am, I'm scarred, but I'm okay.
Speaker 2: She's a therapy.
Speaker 1: What doesn't kill you me? Too strong?
Speaker 3: That was a great song, too great reference next Quinn
Speaker 3: being in a wheelchair.
Speaker 1: Singing I'm no I'm still.
Speaker 2: Saying yeah, yeah, we did that.
Speaker 1: That's the most popular one, I think.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's mentally the quote Asian other Asian Aretha.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was an early one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we started we started early.
Speaker 3: The episode where it was compulsory for all students. To
Speaker 3: use wheelchairs, and they sold cupcakes made out of weed.
Speaker 2: Welcome to America, Wheels.
Speaker 3: The Twerking episode. That's that's all that needs to be said.
Speaker 2: I'm really nervous to get to that.
Speaker 1: I don't want to watch that.
Speaker 2: I know, I'm scared.
Speaker 3: I mean, this goes without saying. What does the Fox say?
Speaker 3: I'm sure you've spoken about this multiple times?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Okay, are you okay? No, Demi Lovarto's character just completely disappearing.
Speaker 3: I love that. That was great for Rachel's entire storyline
Speaker 3: after personality being wanting to be on Broadway and the
Speaker 3: second that she gets there, she decides to do a
Speaker 3: TV show that failed. Writing really just got great in
Speaker 3: season five, didn't it.
Speaker 2: I couldn't tell you. I don't remember really.
Speaker 3: Salad Archie getting access artists, sorry, getting access to a
Speaker 3: machine that allows him to walk, and then it immediately
Speaker 3: breaks rewak.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: When Brittany is asked what the capital of Ohio is
Speaker 3: and she responds, oh, that's.
Speaker 2: So good, so good. That is my favorite line from.
Speaker 4: That will I am wheeling into the swimming pool during
Speaker 4: mister Schuster's wedding proposal.
Speaker 2: Oh it's so good.
Speaker 3: Last one is when Sue mix Santana's slapper face with
Speaker 3: a chicken cutlet.
Speaker 4: Just one of my favorite moments that we've got to
Speaker 4: look back on for years.
Speaker 2: Yes, it is amazing that that ship ended up on TV.
Speaker 1: Also very good that you remember.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is a very that's just straight up off
Speaker 2: the dome, top of the dome.
Speaker 1: Very good.
Speaker 3: It's very shocked at myself and diving now be answering therapy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you need to question your life's choices after knowing
Speaker 2: that you can just recall all of that. Have you
Speaker 2: forced anyone, let's say, like your boyfriend to watch Glee?
Speaker 3: Yes, I have. I've forced my boyfriend, I forced my friends.
Speaker 3: I remember when I first went to university. I actually
Speaker 3: like sat them down and I was like, guys, I
Speaker 3: don't think that you realize, like you need to watch
Speaker 3: this show, not for like you know, for fun or
Speaker 3: to have a little something to dance to for personal
Speaker 3: growth and development, like I don't. I don't know if
Speaker 3: I can be friends with you if you don't finish
Speaker 3: the season, and like Sue is not one of your
Speaker 3: favorite people in the entire world, Like, I don't think
Speaker 3: we can be friends. And yeah, it was quite telling
Speaker 3: Actually when I put it on all my group of
Speaker 3: friends at the time, and one of them was like,
Speaker 3: what even is this? Like why we're watching it? She's blocked.
Speaker 2: It's an easy way to read out the people you
Speaker 2: don't want your life.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, but yeah, to answer your question, I've poused a
Speaker 3: lot of people to watch it and to listen to it.
Speaker 3: Bought the cvs and in like our family car would
Speaker 3: just be me like singing falsetto thinking that I can
Speaker 3: keep up with Amber Riley, Like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we all think we can until we can't.
Speaker 2: There's no keeping up with her.
Speaker 1: Well, we don't want to keep you from your night.
Speaker 3: Oh don't be I'm having a great time.
Speaker 1: But now you're you're amazing. We are so grateful that
Speaker 1: you came on our show, but also that your TikTok
Speaker 1: was all Glee in the beginning. We just love it.
Speaker 1: We love it, we love it, and we just adore you.
Speaker 1: You're You're awesome, and we'd love to hear a more
Speaker 1: elaborate list of your unhinged Glee stories if you'd like
Speaker 1: to come back at some point.
Speaker 3: I would absolutely like to come back anytime that you're
Speaker 3: going over the specific.

Speaker 3: think that they should play Glee to kids in school.

Speaker 2: It's so weird to like have these people you have
Speaker 2: followed on something for so long where you feel like
Speaker 2: you really do know them.
Speaker 1: Mmmm. That is the thing that we've talked about with
Speaker 1: all of these successful TikTokers who.
Speaker 2: Are like I follow these people, No totally. I don't
Speaker 2: know them.

Speaker 2: spoken to online where I've met Chris. I've met Rod before.
Speaker 1: His list of unhinged stories off the top of his
Speaker 1: head were very impressive, I.
Speaker 2: Have to say, and they were all correct, yes.
Speaker 1: With that first one. You guys, I don't know, you know.
Speaker 2: I feel like as we get really into I mean,
Speaker 2: we're about to be halfway through the whole series, oh
Speaker 2: my god, the most unhinged things, and I think it
Speaker 2: is mostly thanks to TikTok. There's a consensus, isn't there.
Speaker 2: There's like an internet consensus about what are like the
Speaker 2: top five craziest things to happen, And I feel like
Speaker 2: hearing from him, it's reaffirming that and.
Speaker 1: We might have to, like at the end of the
Speaker 1: series when we get there, do that, like the Unhinged
Speaker 1: episode where we rank for you guys, yeah, I'm talking
Speaker 1: to you out there, rank the most unhinged and we'll
Speaker 1: we'll share them all.
Speaker 2: So what would also be fun is if we could
Speaker 2: get Ryan or Brad or Ian or all them at
