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 Really miss Podcast.
Speaker 2: I'm Jenna, I'm Kevin, and welcome to another just exciting,
Speaker 2: exciting episode of this recapping season three with us.
Speaker 1: This is season three episode fifteen, titled Big Brother. This
Speaker 1: is one of the funniest episodes I think we have.
Speaker 2: Really, Yes, I would like to say that this is
Speaker 2: why guest stars I think want to come on the show,
Speaker 2: because they get to do really fun things, show off
Speaker 2: other talents and other sides of themselves that are maybe
Speaker 2: not the sides that the public knows them for.
Speaker 1: Aka Matt Boehmer being the funniest.
Speaker 2: I'm just going to talk about Matt for a second. Sure,
Speaker 2: Matt Bohmer is the Jonathan Groff of You're right now,
Speaker 2: because they are both they have the same energy. Yes,
Speaker 2: and it's shocking because they're both insanely talented, obviously, and
Speaker 2: they're both insanely gorgeous. Yes, And you one might think,
Speaker 2: because of their success, their looks, their talents, that they
Speaker 2: would not be the kindest people on the planet, but.
Speaker 1: Just like the nicest and like always talk and whisper
Speaker 1: kind of.
Speaker 2: Person, like they command a room without trying. They look
Speaker 2: at you like you're the only person that's ever existed.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, you feel seen, You feel the golden light,
Speaker 1: if you through you. If either of them started a cult,
Speaker 1: I would willingly joint, joint happily, and I would tell
Speaker 1: I would brag about it, like it's not a dangerous thing. Well,
Speaker 1: it would be a nice cult, yeah, But at the
Speaker 1: same time you'd be like jump off the cliff and
Speaker 1: like okay, okay, okay. So this episode aired on April
Speaker 1: twenty twelve. Time Jump, We're back. What was going on
Speaker 1: in the world?
Speaker 2: We Are Young? By Fun and Jenne Monae. Previously on Glee.
Speaker 2: Seene on Glee is the number one song in the country.
Speaker 2: Look at that, look at the impact. The number one
Speaker 2: movie was Hunger Games.
Speaker 1: I've seen it.
Speaker 2: Yes, I went to this premiere.
Speaker 1: I think I did.
Speaker 2: Yeah, A bunch of us went together and I don't
Speaker 2: remember who I was with, but we.
Speaker 1: Did all go right, Okay, I thought, so, maybe I'm
Speaker 1: conflating this with Twilight, but anyway, I've seen it. In
Speaker 1: Glee News this Week on April ninth, twenty twelve, Chris Corey, Lee,
Speaker 1: and Matt and Jean appeared on the Inside the Actors
Speaker 1: Studio alongside of Ryan and it was filmed on December
Speaker 1: of twenty eleven and then aired April nine, twenty twelve.
Speaker 1: Of all the things that everybody, everybody used to do,
Speaker 1: separate things, if everybody gets to do something different, you know,
Speaker 1: they can't always bring everybody on the show, you know,
Speaker 1: on all these special shows, this is the one I
Speaker 1: was the most envious. So absolutely I felt sad that
Speaker 1: I wasn't a part of it. But also I was like, yes,
Speaker 1: Glee represent on the Actor Studio, are you Katie?
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe that the show got asked to be
Speaker 2: on there in the first place, and definitely like had
Speaker 2: severe fomo, but this was the right crew and how
Speaker 2: cool that they got to do that.
Speaker 1: Totally.
Speaker 2: Also, I like this so this is film in December
Speaker 2: because my question going into this was in the next episode,
Speaker 2: Finn talks about Inside the Active Studio, I'm an actress,
Speaker 2: and so I imagine maybe they took some inspiration from
Speaker 2: what was going on in real life, like let's put
Speaker 2: this in because I would find up for when they
Speaker 2: were working on that script, wasn't it.
Speaker 1: I think so, Kevin, I think you're right. So after
Speaker 1: Big Brother aired this episode, the Bio channel aired Glee
Speaker 1: Don't Stop Believing Keep On Believing, a special featuring behind
Speaker 1: the scenes content and interviews from the cast, crew and creators.
Speaker 1: I don't think I ever saw this.
Speaker 2: We were at Taylor Swift levels of saturation at this point.
Speaker 2: We were everywhere, you know, like it was after the tour,
Speaker 2: after the movie. We had shows about the show while
Speaker 2: we were on other shows.
Speaker 1: This is why people hate us.
Speaker 2: Now. Yeah, we really were just like everywhere.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, well there was a lot happening. But important
Speaker 1: things for this episode were that Eric Stoltz is.
Speaker 2: Back, couldn't you tell?
Speaker 1: I can always always tell.
Speaker 2: There's something about It's also I knew he directed a
Speaker 2: lot of episodes, but damn.
Speaker 1: No a lot. There was one I remember, like towards
Speaker 1: the end he was doing two in a row yea,
Speaker 1: And that never happened because I mean, you really rarely
Speaker 1: got time to prep. Directors got time to prep for
Speaker 1: an episode because they were receiving the script pretty much
Speaker 1: the day that they started. But to do two in
Speaker 1: a row is and then you can't edit it and
Speaker 1: it's just too much people don't normally do that's not normal,
Speaker 1: but he did it once. This was written by our
Speaker 1: friend Michael Leitchcock and the crew and special guests, not
Speaker 1: Boomer as Kevin said, our o cult leader.
Speaker 2: Yeah, as Cooper Anderson, not to be confused with Anderson Cooper.
Speaker 3: Can you tell me about the songs in this episode, gladly, Jenna.
Speaker 2: So there's quite a bit of music. I'm still standing
Speaker 2: hungry like a wolf sash Rio mashup fighter up up
Speaker 2: somebody that I used to know. And there as an
Speaker 2: honorable mention, Bop by Hanson is playing in the background
Speaker 2: when a young Blaine is dancing Hansen. Yes, this is
Speaker 2: the first episode where both Mercedes and Rachel aren't featured
Speaker 2: in any songs. Very weird. It also so weird. Fun
Speaker 2: fact follow me on this. Okay, So you know when
Speaker 2: we did the duets episode and then like people just
Speaker 2: didn't end up doing the duets. This episode marks the
Speaker 2: end of all of those people actually getting to do duets.
Speaker 1: Whow.
Speaker 2: I shout out to Sam for putting that one together
Speaker 2: because we were reading like what is what you kept trying?
Speaker 2: But I love it because we have finally followed through.
Speaker 1: We did it.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it just takes us some.
Speaker 1: Time a second. Yeah, I just believe suspension of disbelieve that,
Speaker 1: like at some point point they did it. We just
Speaker 1: didn't see it, right.
Speaker 2: But it's Glee. I want to see it. I want
Speaker 2: to see the duet.
Speaker 1: No, no, I always want to see it. I always
Speaker 1: want to see it. This episode also aired on the
Speaker 1: same day as National Sibling Day in the United States.
Speaker 1: Matt Boehmer suggested to Ryan Murphy that he should consider
Speaker 1: using Gautier's song Somebody that I Used to know as
Speaker 1: a duet on the show. Well, Ryan obviously had already
Speaker 1: thought about doing the song on the show, and a
Speaker 1: week later, Matt received a text from mine asking if
Speaker 1: he wanted to come on the show and sing it.
Speaker 1: Is that how you get a job from Ryan Murphy
Speaker 1: these days, gay Mafia, gest a thing and then secretly
Speaker 1: plan it, and then you get on the show because
Speaker 1: you suggested it. Fair enough? Yeah, anyway, I'm kidding, there's
Speaker 1: nobody better but Matt Bohmer to come and guest star
Speaker 1: on this episode. He made this episode, I mean, foking fabulous.
Speaker 2: You know what's crazy about Matt Bomer. Matt Bomer grew
Speaker 2: up with Lee Pace.
Speaker 1: What.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they were to high school together in Houston.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 2: Yeah, can you imagine. Wow, if I was in high
Speaker 2: school with them as like a closeted gay boy and
Speaker 2: both of them eight feet tall, I don't know what
Speaker 2: I would I like, what do you're both? They're both
Speaker 2: like the two most beautiful people ever get talented. I
Speaker 2: just can't believe that that's too much beauty. They took
Speaker 2: up all the good Texas jeans because then you get
Speaker 2: Patroll like me, you stop, you stop?
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. That and Darren this is new to me.
Speaker 1: So there's a flip that they filmed some time during
Speaker 1: this episode off to the side of Cooper's Transformer's audition
Speaker 1: tape that Blaine makes an appearance in, and it's on
Speaker 1: YouTube so you can just google quick. It's so Cooper's
Speaker 1: Transformer's audition tape. It is so funny and it brings
Speaker 1: me so much chold.
Speaker 2: I wish this somehow. I wish it was in the episode.
Speaker 1: But I would love the spin off of the two
Speaker 1: of them.
Speaker 2: Their chemistry was unmatched.
Speaker 1: I really loved this whole Cooper Blaine storyline.
Speaker 2: It's also so fun that like, okay, we'll talk about that.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna okay, Okay.
Speaker 2: Before the episode aired, the Glee on Fox's YouTube channel
Speaker 2: uploaded the promo in which you could see Quinn in
Speaker 2: her wheelchair, but it was later removed and replaced by
Speaker 2: a similar one, but without Quinn because spoiler alert, you know,
Speaker 2: they gave it away really quickly, right, And the roller
Speaker 2: coaster scene, Rory is the only gree member that's not
Speaker 2: sitting next to another member, and the roller coaster scene
Speaker 2: is viper at six fives match the mountain Valencia, California,
Speaker 2: which is where I sort of grew up and went
Speaker 2: to high school, and the skatepark was also up there,
Speaker 2: so it felt like a homecoming day for me because
Speaker 2: that was my territory. I used to live drive Yeah,
Speaker 2: the first two years agree I, or first season agree
Speaker 2: I lived on Magic Mountain Parkway and would drive down
Speaker 2: to La Proper and shoot and be driving back at
Speaker 2: like two or three am, which is why I moved
Speaker 2: down and moved in with you. It was too far,
Speaker 2: it was dangerous.
Speaker 1: It was too much. The amount of time you slept
Speaker 1: on our couches so that you wouldn't fall asleep at
Speaker 1: the wheel was okay. This is the sixth episode after
Speaker 1: Throwdown Home Duets Rumors and the first time in which
Speaker 1: two duets are sung by the in two people, but
Speaker 1: the first were two different pairings. Seeing two duets in
Speaker 1: one episode aka like Blade and Cooper sing two duets
Speaker 1: and quinnin Larky seeing true duets. You guys have a
Speaker 1: lot of songs in this episode, and.
Speaker 2: It was very exciting to have duets with Diana. It
Speaker 2: never happened and very exciting. I remember distinctly going into
Speaker 2: the recording booth and hearing part of her vocal that
Speaker 2: she had recorded, and it was so nice because our
Speaker 2: voices are quite different and her are both very distinct.
Speaker 2: It's like they do that with a lot of us
Speaker 2: for all. Our voices were so different and we found
Speaker 2: that good pairing. It just sounds really nice.
Speaker 1: Very yeah, and it makes you like sing differently to
Speaker 1: try to like match them in a way. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like being in a scene with some money, you know.
Speaker 2: It was really it was really fun and I really
Speaker 2: like both of those songs.
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed them both given some of the circumstances
Speaker 1: being a.
Speaker 2: Little Yeah, you can take the song out of story.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure. Okay, we'll get into it.
Speaker 2: So the little summary of this episode is much to
Speaker 2: Blaine chagrin. His big shot of Hollywood actor brother Cooper
Speaker 2: comes to visit. Meanwhile, Finn contemplates a new career path
Speaker 2: and suicides to help the new Directions win at Nationals. Plus,
Speaker 2: Quinn's fate is revealed. So Quinn is alive after the accident.
Speaker 2: She's in a wheelchair, but she's convinced that she'll be
Speaker 2: walking by Nationals and graduation, which already doesn't really love.
Speaker 2: He's trying to be like, hey, I thought I would too,
Speaker 2: but let's get some perspective here on the matter. And
Speaker 2: so already, you know, Quinn's send some QT together to
Speaker 2: help her manage your wheelchair and her expectations.
Speaker 1: Ultimately right number one, there's like it's nuanced because she's like, well,
Speaker 1: I'll be up and walking, and Alty's like, well, I
Speaker 1: thought that too, So manager expectitions, but also like if
Speaker 1: she is going to be I'm walking, like I'm sure
Speaker 1: that weighs on already saying like this is my this
Speaker 1: is my forever. You know you could see that on
Speaker 1: your sweet little face. Yeah, it was very nice. I
Speaker 1: thought the two of you were really great together and
Speaker 1: have great chemistry. You guys are good friends obviously, so
Speaker 1: it it reflects your relationship on screen, I think really nicely.
Speaker 1: And like you said, your voices also sound really nice
Speaker 1: together because they're so distinct. What was it like having
Speaker 1: somebody in a wheelchair next to you, mister Kevin.
Speaker 2: I think it sort of felt like the storyline in
Speaker 2: a way where if you remember back when we did
Speaker 2: Proud Mary Dan, it didn't love the wheel chair. It
Speaker 2: was hard because we were going up those ramps and things,
Speaker 2: and so it felt like when you guys are in
Speaker 2: the wheelchair, all of you, and when she and Quinn
Speaker 2: got in the wheelchair in this time, that it felt
Speaker 2: like I can sort of show you how to do
Speaker 2: this a bit at least like on this set, right,
Speaker 2: I can't speak to how to be in a wheelchair
Speaker 2: in real life, but I could speak to like going
Speaker 2: around the set or these scenes like this is sort
Speaker 2: of how it works. And so that scene when we're
Speaker 2: going up that ramp, which was really nice steep by
Speaker 2: the way, it was legitimately steep. I could barely do it.
Speaker 2: And then you can see it a lot of that
Speaker 2: status ad lived and Stolts just had us doing it
Speaker 2: over and over and just let the cameras roll, which
Speaker 2: was really fun. And so when she gets up there
Speaker 2: and is laughing hystically and I'm laughing, that's all very
Speaker 2: much real and not you know, with a tinge of
Speaker 2: the character. And when she gets up there, she does
Speaker 2: start to roll back down the thing, and I like
Speaker 2: catch her, and I'm so glad they use those takes
Speaker 2: because those were the most loose for sure.
Speaker 1: It's really cute you guys doing I'm still standing. Well, okay,
Speaker 1: look I love this song. Originally, I love this song
Speaker 1: with you guys on it. I don't love this song
Speaker 1: in the context of the show. I think it's where
Speaker 1: we want to step too far, be on the line,
Speaker 1: which we usually tow anyway, But everybody's faces WI watching
Speaker 1: IM still standing is actually very funny because I'm like, okay, good,
Speaker 1: at least we're acknowledging it. It is. What do you
Speaker 1: remember your reaction like when you were when you got
Speaker 1: this script?
Speaker 2: Yes, I do, randomly, because I think I was very
Speaker 2: much into the like bad humor of it all. M like,
Speaker 2: this is insane, but of course we're doing this, this
Speaker 2: is Glee, like, of course you're doing it. So it
Speaker 2: was nice that I got to play sort of how
Speaker 2: I felt of like, yeah, it's another number. We're so
Speaker 2: desensitized to the crazy shit we're doing, like, yeah, I'm
Speaker 2: just gonna do it. And then thank God because as
Speaker 2: I was doing it, I couldn't really watch your guys's
Speaker 2: reactions because I'm just already just sort of showing Quinn,
Speaker 2: you know, the moves and things in real time, and
Speaker 2: so watching it and seeing your reactions, I had the
Speaker 2: exact same reactions. Got it because this is this is
Speaker 2: what the deal needs to feel like, this is Yeah.
Speaker 2: I also just have so many questions of like, we're
Speaker 2: just gonna skip the whole recovery process and she's in
Speaker 2: a wheelchair and it's like fine because she got t
Speaker 2: boned really horribly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we tend to do that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, But I was like, Okay, it's Glee, it's fine.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly, we have to take it for what
Speaker 1: it is.
Speaker 2: I guess I also do you know what it's like?
Speaker 2: So when we got to do scenes with people that
Speaker 2: we weren't normally paired with, it just was so much fun.
Speaker 1: Totally.
Speaker 2: It was so much like those little things I got
Speaker 2: to do with Naya or with Leah where it was
Speaker 2: we never get to do it, and you get to
Speaker 2: sort of be extra because when you're with someone else,
Speaker 2: you're bring out different side of your character. Yes, and
Speaker 2: so yes, we got all that time together. We got
Speaker 2: to do that ramp thing and the number so you
Speaker 2: have rehearsal part and the skate part was really fun.
Speaker 2: It was really early but much like the actual scene,
Speaker 2: we got to meet so many amazing people, legitimate lab
Speaker 2: who could do all those things. My stunt double was
Speaker 2: actually there doing the flips. Wow. And we got to
Speaker 2: you know, go down the little ramps and things, which
Speaker 2: was terrifying.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how much did you guys do?
Speaker 2: It was just that. I mean, so there's a shot
Speaker 2: where there's two like downhill ramp things. We only did
Speaker 2: the second one. So my sun double was and we
Speaker 2: had some doubles for both of us, like go down
Speaker 2: the big one and then we were down the little one, and.
Speaker 1: Then Diana did that last one that she does.
Speaker 2: Actually mini cue and then we were wrapped earlier that day,
Speaker 2: That's what I remember. Well, you guys got to go
Speaker 2: to six Flags, right.
Speaker 1: So the skate Park was Inlandcia next or near Six Flags,
Speaker 1: and so we did it all in one day, and
Speaker 1: so yes, and then we did Six Flags, which is
Speaker 1: all about Senior Ditch Day. So they're trying to find
Speaker 1: finn Is, trying to think up the best Senior Ditch
Speaker 1: Day possible. They have a meeting about it, which I
Speaker 1: guess I'm there because I'm sure I asked why I
Speaker 1: was there Anyway. I actually think that maybe Eric brought
Speaker 1: me in for that. So Eric Stoltz was the only
Speaker 1: director that would call somebody in. He wasn't written into
Speaker 1: a scene. And let me be very clear, I love
Speaker 1: Eric Stults. I did not love that because it was
Speaker 1: like we were never not in scenes. We were always
Speaker 1: in scenes together and very rarely like you know, you
Speaker 1: and Diana like that was the time off, but we
Speaker 1: were probably rehearsing or doing something else. So it's it
Speaker 1: was like, what a not in the scene? And then
Speaker 1: he called me in, and uh, Tina's a junior, but
Speaker 1: I guess she was there for Mike.
Speaker 2: Well and Artie's a junior, but I was you there
Speaker 2: for Quinn?
Speaker 1: I guess so, But you're really talking about Senior Ditch
Speaker 1: Day like it was senior ditch day, Like it wasn't
Speaker 1: acknowledged that, like we weren't supposed to be there right anyway,
Speaker 1: because there was a whole scene where all of you talking.
Speaker 1: I wasn't in, so you weren't there. But why I
Speaker 1: was Tina there then? Because Eric stults?
Speaker 2: Well probably because like I could have been recording, so
Speaker 2: I wasn't available, you could come in. I mean, I
Speaker 2: do yes, in terms of practicality, it was like, let
Speaker 2: me take this afternoon off, please, But also he was
Speaker 2: the best at making it feel real and feel those
Speaker 2: scenes out with us, and.
Speaker 1: I appreciate it now. I just didn't love it then,
Speaker 1: but I get in. I get it. I would probably
Speaker 1: do the same thing. Have I read totally No, you're
Speaker 1: just like whatever, it's for the best of the.
Speaker 2: Like you're getting paid anyway, it doesn't cost anymore to
Speaker 2: have you there, like just or they.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't have brought it totally.
Speaker 5: Hi, I'm Kate.
Speaker 6: Hudson and I'm Oliver Hudson. And at last I checked for.
Speaker 5: Siblings, and this is sibling revelry.
Speaker 6: We're full blood siblings, the only.
Speaker 5: Full blood and our family well not in the world,
Speaker 5: I mean.
Speaker 6: In the whole world.
Speaker 2: This is it, like no one.
Speaker 6: Anyway, We're back with season four. I can't believe it.
Speaker 5: Yes, I'm so excited, bigger and better than ever. You
Speaker 5: might be asking yourself, what is sibling revelry?
Speaker 6: Yeah, well we just made it up. There is no
Speaker 6: sibling revelry. It's reveling in your sibling.
Speaker 5: And it's fun because we've decided to open it up,
Speaker 5: you know, to really like all kinds of different siblings.
Speaker 5: And it's going to be an awesome season.
Speaker 6: So listen to Sibling Revelry on the iHeartRadio app, Apple
Speaker 6: Podcasts or wherever you listen to.
Speaker 4: What Gods.
Speaker 1: We decide to go to Six Flags for Senior Ditch Day,
Speaker 1: and that's how you guys end up at the skate park.
Speaker 1: Already and Quinn because it's not really the best Senior
Speaker 1: Ditch Day for you guys, and so Already can then
Speaker 1: Squinn to do something different. But Tina goes to Senior
Speaker 1: Ditch today because like, why wouldn't I go to Senior
Speaker 1: Ditch Day. But here's the funny part. It was awesome
Speaker 1: they closed the park.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was so jealous.
Speaker 1: It was so cool. The whole parking lot was just
Speaker 1: empty and it was just our trailers, and you could
Speaker 1: see like the all the roller coasters, you know, like
Speaker 1: as you walk into a theme park, and they were
Speaker 1: like not going, and it was empty and it was quiet,
Speaker 1: and we kind of got to like run around the
Speaker 1: park and like Hafrey Rain and it was really fun.
Speaker 1: The only thing was I love roller coasters. I'm a
Speaker 1: roller coaster girly. This is my favorite thing. If I
Speaker 1: could really ride roller coasters all day long, I would.
Speaker 1: I had recently hurt my back really badly. And this
Speaker 1: was when this is after two and a half seasons
Speaker 1: of dancing in heels, stomping up and down those risers repetitively,
Speaker 1: I had to get injuries. I'm going to stop, and
Speaker 1: a lot of people started getting injuries, and my back
Speaker 1: went out really badly, so badly that we were living together, Kevin,
Speaker 1: and one night I went out to a bar with
Speaker 1: some friends and I bent down and I couldn't stand
Speaker 1: up straight. And this was the time before ubers, before
Speaker 1: any of that. I had to leave the bar and
Speaker 1: get in a cab bent over to go home. I
Speaker 1: had to leave. I was like, you guys, can stay,
Speaker 1: have to go home. I came home and I laid
Speaker 1: on the living room floor of the wooden floor, and
Speaker 1: you guys had left. I remember you were going somewhere
Speaker 1: and I was like, I'll be fine. You gave me
Speaker 1: water in medicine and you put it by my head.
Speaker 1: About four hours later, I could not get up. I
Speaker 1: could not stand up by myself, so somebody had peeled
Speaker 1: me off the floor, taking me to the emergency room.
Speaker 1: I was at the emergency room all night because they
Speaker 1: thought I had like kidney infection, because usually like your
Speaker 1: back or the heart from kidney infections. Now it was
Speaker 1: just I had a herniated disc in my back, in
Speaker 1: my spine. So I was recovering from that at the time,
Speaker 1: all while still going to to work. I was calling
Speaker 1: it school, and so I wasn't really able to ride
Speaker 1: the roller coasters because it was really painful.
Speaker 2: Well, I was going to ask how many times did
Speaker 2: you guys do it?
Speaker 1: A lot? I would say ten, maybe maybe more, because
Speaker 1: they put so what they did was I think Andrew
Speaker 1: Mitchell got in one cameras like ragged himself. I don't know,
Speaker 1: I don't remember how he did it. And then the
Speaker 1: other times they put cameras in front of us that
Speaker 1: were ragged exactly on the carts, and so I had
Speaker 1: said to him, look, I'm really not supposed to do this,
Speaker 1: but for my own selfishly, I want to do this,
Speaker 1: so like I can do it a few times, that's
Speaker 1: probably all I should do it, because I don't want
Speaker 1: to mess at my back forever and like not be
Speaker 1: able to work. But they did it like a lot,
Speaker 1: and I remember sitting out probably most of those. He
Speaker 1: will He was like, you're not doing it. I also
Speaker 1: was like, I can't dance, and so if you're like,
Speaker 1: I can write a roller coaster, but I can't dance unkily,
Speaker 1: like it doesn't really track. So I got I got
Speaker 1: in one time with Harry. I think you catch a
Speaker 1: glimpse of me. It was really really fun the roller
Speaker 1: coast that was viper. He had his make out the
Speaker 1: whole time, shocking and Harry and I really worried about
Speaker 1: our teeth. Oh yeah, like bang our cheek. So we
Speaker 1: were just laughing and we did it a little bit
Speaker 1: and then we stopped. But then I got to ride it.
Speaker 1: I think like one or two other times. But it
Speaker 1: was really really.
Speaker 2: Challenge, like going again. During the resets, was there quite
Speaker 2: a bit of time or were you just sort of
Speaker 2: going back to back to back.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, it wasn't back to back. I don't
Speaker 1: think anybody would have made it that way. I think
Speaker 1: each time they did a different camera angle, camera set up.
Speaker 1: I think they only had a few go pros, so
Speaker 1: I think they would actually swap them out on different carts. Okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like, uh, it wasn't constant, but it was
Speaker 1: definitely like often, like they were going pretty often and
Speaker 1: everybody was like pretty game. I don't think anybody was like,
Speaker 1: oh I get sick, or they wouldn't have made them
Speaker 1: do it. Everybody was really having totally and it was
Speaker 1: a quick day, Like we were out of there very early.
Speaker 2: We were out of the skate park really early.
Speaker 1: I think it was expensive also to rent out like
Speaker 1: they probably did it by I don't know, I actually
Speaker 1: don't know, but it was enough that like they were like,
Speaker 1: let's let's get it out of here, and then we
Speaker 1: had to shoot entering the park exiting the park, so
Speaker 1: all of that stuff, you know, all of the non
Speaker 1: not so fun stuff, but we're not as fun stuff
Speaker 1: for roller kisters, but that anyway, that that was the
Speaker 1: the Six.
Speaker 2: Flags I drove over there just to see recently. No,
Speaker 2: when you guys are filming it. I remember after oh
Speaker 2: you did. Yeah, I drove over there. I don't remember why,
Speaker 2: but I just sort of looked around and then I
Speaker 2: was like, I'm going to go see my other friends
Speaker 2: that live Flin.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was so nice.
Speaker 1: Mm hmmm.
Speaker 2: So a couple of smaller things that happened get out
Speaker 2: of the way here. So Figgins makes coach Ros.
Speaker 6: God.
Speaker 2: I love Nini. I'm just every time I see her
Speaker 2: on screen, I'm like, she needs to be in more things.
Speaker 1: Thankfully, she she really doesn't make she comes quite a bit,
Speaker 1: thank goodness.
Speaker 2: But she's now the new co captain of the Cheerios
Speaker 2: and Sue is furious. So she says she's going to
Speaker 2: help new Directions with nationals and when she wins, she'll
Speaker 2: be the sole captain of the Cheerios. So Sue takes
Speaker 2: over booty Camp, which is great, starts shouting at everyone,
Speaker 2: and then will accompany Sue at the doctor, her first
Speaker 2: where she's finding out the sex of her baby mm hmm,
Speaker 2: and finds out she's having a girl, but the doctor
Speaker 2: says there's some irregularities, pointing to the baby most likely
Speaker 2: we'll have Down syndrome. Yeah, and so it's sort of
Speaker 2: you know, there's not a better person to have a
Speaker 2: child with Down syndrome than Sue Syvester.
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right.
Speaker 2: Ironically, it's a weird it's like a weirdly sweet storyline
Speaker 2: of like Sue being genuine about wanting Obviously she's heretive
Speaker 2: motives for wanting to help the new directions win. Like,
Speaker 2: but that's season three, here we go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it all feels strange because Sue's having a baby,
Speaker 1: and yeah, it's always strange, but this this moment in it,
Speaker 1: I thought it was very sweet as well. And the
Speaker 1: fact that like she's gonna go by herself and I
Speaker 1: was like, who's going to go with you? Like this
Speaker 1: is a big deal and so friend, Yeah really.
Speaker 2: She said friend. That felt like a really big moment
Speaker 2: because when have they ever referred to each other as friends?
Speaker 2: And so, you know, most of the show they've been
Speaker 2: each other's next and so it's nice that when it
Speaker 2: counts the most, you know, will and Emma show up.
Speaker 2: That's right, I mean they always do.
Speaker 1: Sue's little like almost non response was just very countering.
Speaker 2: You know, gosh, there's You're right though, I keep thinking
Speaker 2: about there's always a baby. There's always a baby. Always
Speaker 2: Beth is gone, disappeared, and now there's this baby. There's
Speaker 2: this baby.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. I couldn't tell you. You're gonna have to
Speaker 1: ask somebody else. Huck is convinced trying to convince Finn
Speaker 1: to move to California with him to start a pool
Speaker 1: cleaning business together, and then Finn's like, no, I'm going
Speaker 1: to New York with Rachel. But Puck's like, yo, you
Speaker 1: seem to be doing like only what Rachel wants, Like
Speaker 1: why aren't you thinking about yourself? And this plants a
Speaker 1: seed in Finn's mind like, oh right, what about me?
Speaker 1: And so they're cleaning these pools said line about like
Speaker 1: she's like ugly for La or something. It's crazy. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: she's like a five in La. But this does send
Speaker 1: Finn into a bit of a tailspin, and it creates
Speaker 1: some drama with Finn and Rachel about him saying like, yeah,
Speaker 1: but is this all for you or for me? Are
Speaker 1: you only thinking about yourself? Or what about what I
Speaker 1: want and what I eat? Which is a very fair thing,
Speaker 1: And I think you know, as they've gotten into some
Speaker 1: very serious commitments to each other, these are the questions
Speaker 1: that need to be as Yeah, but they're really sweet together,
Speaker 1: I think.
Speaker 2: And I really like the storyline between them, and I
Speaker 2: really like it for Ben because it goes on for
Speaker 2: a little bit. Yeah, and that's it's nice to give
Speaker 2: him something juicy like this, because it can be funny,
Speaker 2: like the actual cleaning of the pool, but then it's
Speaker 2: a real issue. And I think, I you know me,
Speaker 2: I've said it a million times, but I love the
Speaker 2: real high school drama of it all.
Speaker 1: Yes, and this.
Speaker 2: Storyline really brings that out, because it's not normal. I
Speaker 2: don't think that you have kids like Rachel and Kurt
Speaker 2: you know exactly what they want to do. They're the exception,
Speaker 2: that's right. And then like, how are you supposed to
Speaker 2: know what you want to do at seventeen sixteen, seventeen
Speaker 2: eighteen years old for the rest of your life. And
Speaker 2: he's from a small town and he's with somebody who
Speaker 2: is overpowering and that way, and a lot of times
Speaker 2: it's easier just to follow them. And Corey is such
Speaker 2: a good actor. Oh my god, it's so nice to
Speaker 2: see him use this one story line, Yes, to get
Speaker 2: you all of this, it's yeah. In the next episode
Speaker 2: it's also great.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, it's stunning. Yeah, okay, it's a little
Speaker 1: bit more of that. I know, it's infuriating, it is.
Speaker 1: There's a lot that happens in this episode.
Speaker 2: There's so much, but it feels really balanced.
Speaker 1: It does. I mean, I think we skimmed over a
Speaker 1: little bit of Quinn more like I would have I
Speaker 1: would have loved, like, I agree, you're right, you and
Speaker 1: Quinn and a little bit more of her journey versus
Speaker 1: just kind of being like I'm gonna walk again, don't worry.
Speaker 1: Like I think that could have been stretched out. But look,
Speaker 1: it was effective and it's really and it will it
Speaker 1: will live on, we'll see more of it. So but
Speaker 1: most importantly, Matt Boemer Cooper Anderson is in this episode,
Speaker 1: and it's Blaine's big brother who comes to town and
Speaker 1: charms the hell out of us. But I I can
Speaker 1: kind of explain to you the joy of watching somebody
Speaker 1: like try to be a good actor or with like
Speaker 1: the worst advice and direction possible.
Speaker 2: That pointing shit brings me. That pointing thing is brilliant.
Speaker 1: So his masterclass like he's first seen introduced, like coming
Speaker 1: in and then introducing himself and just sitting in front
Speaker 1: of the classroom, like the power he held and the
Speaker 1: comedic genius and the delivery of everything. Like actually, if
Speaker 1: you're a really good actor, which Matt Boehmer is, you
Speaker 1: really have to play against all of your all against
Speaker 1: your instincts. And it's it's like trying to be drunk,
Speaker 1: like they say, to act like you're trying not to
Speaker 1: be drunk instead of acting drunk, Like he has to
Speaker 1: play against all of his good instincts to do something
Speaker 1: like this to actually be bad, to be funny, he
Speaker 1: says in his masterclass, which I got to play the
Speaker 1: dead body. I was honored. The key, of course, the
Speaker 1: key to a dramatic scene is pointing. When people are
Speaker 1: really emotional, they point their fingers a lot. It's just
Speaker 1: other choices. I plan ahead of time screening all my
Speaker 1: lines because I'm really intense and the things I'm feeling
Speaker 1: are really tense because I'm an intense actor. Nicholas Cage, right,
Speaker 1: and you can hear not laughing in this he.
Speaker 2: Does like a a good Nicholas Cage. It's very good,
Speaker 2: and I guess and I can't tell if he's I
Speaker 2: feel like some of these lines he's ad libbing because
Speaker 2: he's so in it. He is a little bit here
Speaker 2: and there because it is his commitment to it. Also,
Speaker 2: you know that that's it, there was a commitment. Glee
Speaker 2: started out as an hour long comedy, and we were
Speaker 2: in all the comedy categorized, all the award shows, and
Speaker 2: then at some point like, oh, we're a full drama. However, right,
Speaker 2: you have Matt Boemer come on and his storyline is
Speaker 2: that of someone who's famous because they're in a popular
Speaker 2: credit score commercial and everyone is freaking out, Like Sue's
Speaker 2: reaction to him, like stalking him in the hallways is
Speaker 2: so good.
Speaker 1: When he kisses Sue on the lips, I was. I
Speaker 1: cackled this whole episode. There's a couple of really good
Speaker 1: lines of Cooper says that we have to I feel
Speaker 1: like we have to point out he says, the secret
Speaker 1: to great acting. Great acting is ignoring whatever the other
Speaker 1: actor is doing. I contact with a scene partner is
Speaker 1: incredibly distracting. I try to tune them out entirely. Sometimes
Speaker 1: I wear earplugs that way, I don't get distracted by
Speaker 1: what they're doing, and I can focus on the awesome
Speaker 1: acting choices I've planned ahead of time, like eating a
Speaker 1: roast beef sandwich. Right, that could go really terribly wrong. Yea,
Speaker 1: like somebody'd saying delivering that line could go terribly wrong.
Speaker 2: Yeah, not if they're good like Matt Boehmer. I also
Speaker 2: love that scene opens up with don't go to college.
Speaker 2: It's a waste of time after everyone's been talking about
Speaker 2: college the entire season. Theeder's Laye broadways Dead React TV
Speaker 2: in the film Oh God. He also when he gets
Speaker 2: in a fight with Blaine later on, he's like, I
Speaker 2: can't tell you're mad because you're not pointing at me.
Speaker 1: He recently master plos. He says things are serious. A
Speaker 1: man in an address is dead.
Speaker 2: I will also what my equally favorite part of this
Speaker 2: is the storyline is Darren gets something to do.
Speaker 1: Oh man.
Speaker 2: We all get into our like sort of rhythms of
Speaker 2: what the characters their everyday lives and dramas are, and
Speaker 2: then Blaine all of a sudden. It's just irritated the
Speaker 2: entire time, and it's so amazing to see somebody who
Speaker 2: is so likable like Matt Bomer, come on and then
Speaker 2: have a character from the outset hate him. Yes, it
Speaker 2: was written. Darren was so good at it.
Speaker 1: It was so good.
Speaker 2: It's so dramatic. You hate him so much. You have
Speaker 2: to sing Fighter by.
Speaker 7: Christine the screams screen behind him.
Speaker 1: Of all of that, I.
Speaker 2: Was thinking every department must have loved this, but the
Speaker 2: art department because they got to do all this crazy
Speaker 2: shit the commercial.
Speaker 1: It's really funny. It's really really funny.
Speaker 2: Do you remember working with Matt, like doing these scenes
Speaker 2: with him?
Speaker 1: Yes, I remember, okay, so I remember him being really funny,
Speaker 1: but watching him back, like, I don't know that I
Speaker 1: appreciated how funny he was. Like I felt like I
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, I was truly shocked. But
Speaker 1: I do remember working with him, and I remember these
Speaker 1: scenes very vividly, I think because Eric and him were
Speaker 1: very collaborative, and like, I think he did add live
Speaker 1: some of this stuff because I think it's yes, it's
Speaker 1: very clear in my mind, and I think I was
Speaker 1: shocked by it.
Speaker 2: And he felt like such a natural fit on the show.
Speaker 2: Especially watching it's like, oh, he fully understands. We had
Speaker 2: other guest stars who were extremely talented, but you know,
Speaker 2: everyone's got their own thing, and he fully fit in.
Speaker 1: Like himself in it. Yeah, yeah, that's right, that's totally right.
Speaker 2: How was she came back for more?
Speaker 1: I think it's his commitment, Like he was just so
Speaker 1: honest about everything, and he was so like every the
Speaker 1: circumstances were so ridiculous, but he was just so honest
Speaker 1: about it all that he made it. It just elevated
Speaker 1: all of it. It was just so funny.
Speaker 2: Have you seen fellow travelers. No, he's very good, and
Speaker 2: it's the content opposite of this.
Speaker 1: I mean, he is a he is the he's the
Speaker 1: most versatile.
Speaker 2: Which is I mean, I think like when this, when
Speaker 2: he did Glee, mm hmm, he wasn't He was famous,
Speaker 2: but he wasn't as famous as he is now, and
Speaker 2: he hadn't done as much as he's done now. And
Speaker 2: like to now look back and see the range of
Speaker 2: all the things he has done and how good he
Speaker 2: is at all of those things is truly remarkable. And
Speaker 2: I think sometimes people are sold short sometimes if they
Speaker 2: look like Matt Omer that's where he is just as
Speaker 2: talented as he is beautiful.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, right, No, you're totally right and nice, like
Speaker 1: a nice person to work with.
Speaker 2: So nice.
Speaker 1: Do you remember working with him?
Speaker 2: Yes, And I just remember I think, like dying laughing
Speaker 2: at all this and that Nicholas cage.
Speaker 1: I'll never forget the Nicholas Cage of it all and
Speaker 1: the yelling. I remember that line. I was yelling because
Speaker 1: we had a hard time not laughing. Yeah, because I
Speaker 1: don't think that's he also like came in just doing that,
Speaker 1: like he started out a tent's right.
Speaker 2: And it is. You've heard us talk about how you know,
Speaker 2: the wheels were falling off. We were all like tired,
Speaker 2: broken people, and then you have somebody come in like
Speaker 2: that and just energize you and remind you of like
Speaker 2: what you're doing and why you're doing and how much
Speaker 2: fun it is. Was just such a game.
Speaker 1: I was just gonna say, like even the reactions of
Speaker 1: the Glee club, like in his Master clubs, all the
Speaker 1: different takes of like how people were perceiving him and
Speaker 1: like reacting to him like he made us better.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well we didn't have to do anything because
Speaker 2: see he was so good. We were just being ourselves.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, and that's a Matt Boomer love fest orf
Speaker 1: I've ever heard one, But I really cackled like a
Speaker 1: lot during this more than usual, like quite a bit
Speaker 1: more than usual. So I think this episode is really
Speaker 1: really funny for me, like very belly belly laughing funny.
Speaker 2: And I think it also shows I really enjoyed his
Speaker 2: delusion because that's that first number he does with Darren.
Speaker 2: Darren is fantastic in it, and then he's like, no,
Speaker 2: you're a little flat.
Speaker 1: I like their voices together, yes, oh, and you can
Speaker 1: also sing oh.
Speaker 2: It was a showcase of Matt's ability and range, and
Speaker 2: also for Darren. I think because they all got to
Speaker 2: do things, I think they were outside of the norm
Speaker 2: for them, and just yeah, it was exciting. It was
Speaker 2: really exciting. I wanted more of them.
Speaker 1: Let's grade the performances. That's what I'm talking about. Spinoff
Speaker 1: Cooper and Blaine. I'm still standing, by the way, before
Speaker 1: we do that, did you see that Matt Bomer went
Speaker 1: and watched Darren yes little shop and took a picture
Speaker 1: and said his little brother, which I thought was so
Speaker 1: very cute. Oh, that's so nice of him to go
Speaker 1: see Darren. I wish I could go see them do that.
Speaker 1: We should, That's right, cute.
Speaker 2: I'm still standing.
Speaker 1: Look, circumstances aside, situation aside. I give it an A.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think the covers an A. I think the
Speaker 2: actual number is like a C.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, fair enough, hungry like the Wolf rio.
Speaker 2: I I'll give it an A minus.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's fair. I was gonna go be plus plus.
Speaker 1: So we're saying this.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say that as well, because they didn't
Speaker 2: with just being in a choir room and it being
Speaker 2: their first number together.
Speaker 8: Hilarious, great, yes, exactly, okay, fighter a.
Speaker 2: Plus yes, hilarious great. I also loved it was one
Speaker 2: of those things where reminding myself, this is a satire,
Speaker 2: Like Blaine is so serious right now, and look at
Speaker 2: that screen behind him. This is comedy goal, honey, because
Speaker 2: you feel like when we were filming some of these things,
Speaker 2: like we're so in it, probably for the better as
Speaker 2: our characters that like, you're not playing the comedy of it,
Speaker 2: which is why it's funny.
Speaker 1: No, and so, but it reads ridiculous. You're like, what
Speaker 1: is happening? But it's really very good. Yes, it's very good.
Speaker 1: I'm glad a lot of people got it up up up.
Speaker 2: I like the song. It was just joy like joyful.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's very swa. I think it's sweet.
Speaker 1: Okay, I was gonna give it a night like.
Speaker 8: It's you know, it's fun. Plus plus somebody that I
Speaker 8: think a Yeah, agreed, agreed. We had a good that's
Speaker 8: a good rating all across the board, A good variety
Speaker 8: of music.
Speaker 9: Yeah, and also we always need more, Christina, let's.
Speaker 7: Do some tardy taps, Okay, romans, I'm still saying that. Yeah,
Speaker 7: the concept, We've said enough about it. Yeah, best dance move.
Speaker 2: There wasn't a ton of dancing in this episode, right,
Speaker 2: but I mean hungry like a wolf was insane. Darren
Speaker 2: gets on the piano everywhere, Okay, something I also, I
Speaker 2: would say the skate park it can be Dan this,
Speaker 2: You're right, I mean that is the most impressive.
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly, Okay, we'll go with that. Okay, best song,
Speaker 3: this is hard. They're all very, very different. I guess
Speaker 3: I'll go with somebody that I used to know. Your
Speaker 3: favorite song.
Speaker 1: I'm going to a fighter.
Speaker 2: Respect. You can't go wrong, you can't go wrong.
Speaker 1: Across the board, good report card, performance, proper stuff.
Speaker 2: The head shot also like a special shout out to
Speaker 2: Britney's camera. She's taking pictures with the cap.
Speaker 4: Onery sides from n cis Oh man, that's good too.
Speaker 2: Best line. Oh my god, it's gotta be one of Cooper's.
Speaker 2: Yeah for sure, So okay, so Cooper says, Stanislavski says
Speaker 2: the fingers are the eyes of the body, but he
Speaker 2: never mentioned that the toes are the ears.
Speaker 1: What I think I'm gonna go with the the Nicholas
Speaker 1: Cage line, and that's more about the to be fair,
Speaker 1: that's more about the delivery than it is the line itself.
Speaker 1: But I think I have to give it to him.
Speaker 2: I'm performance VP's Matt Boehmer obviously, like just crushed it, obviously.
Speaker 2: So for should we found on TikTok This week, Grilled
Speaker 2: Jesus Mary did a slide show about Super Bowl twenty
Speaker 2: twenty four predictions, and there's things like San Francisco scores
Speaker 2: at the end of the first half. Case he scores
Speaker 2: a touchdown but misses the extra point. Usher delivers an
Speaker 2: exciting performance. Then oh my god, a giant asteroid hit
Speaker 2: the field and all of the Chiefs are hurt. He
Speaker 2: can't plain anymore. Who will play the forty nine ers.
Speaker 2: The William McKinley High School football team comes to the
Speaker 2: field and performs single ladies taking the field in the
Speaker 2: final play of the game, a touchdown, a score by McKinley,
Speaker 2: bringing the score to twenty to twenty one, and send
Speaker 2: Kurt Hummel and for the extra point to win the game.
Speaker 2: And there's all these incredible pictures and Kurt performing ladies.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's very funny, very good. Yeah, thank you girl, Jesus, girl, Jesus, Jesus.
Speaker 2: I wanted to say before we go, i'n listened to
Speaker 2: this podcast called Hollywood Gold, which interviews producers of movies,
Speaker 2: and I feel like if people because producers don't get
Speaker 2: often interviewed, and you can see her from start to finish,
Speaker 2: how like some of the biggest films in the world
Speaker 2: get made, and I feel like you have our perspective
Speaker 2: here as the performers in it doing it, and to
Speaker 2: hear how production goes for movies. It's not that dissimilar
Speaker 2: from here, but it's just fascinating and I think you
Speaker 2: should listen to it if you enjoy like behind the
Speaker 2: scenes stuff of this. It's not a mad not getting
Speaker 2: paid to do this, but it's just some really brilliant,
Speaker 2: brilliant things. Like I listened Silver Linings Playbook. There's an
Speaker 2: episode about and Arrival and it's just great.
Speaker 1: Oh cool, good wreck Kevin.
Speaker 2: Okay, come back next week. It's Saturday night, gleever exciting.
