I'll explain. I'll explain this in a minute. Okay. I have stories
about the wedding prep. I have dresses to show you. I'm just gonna

regarding the wedding. What my son has asked me to do for the wedding,
and I want to run by you. The toast that I'm going to
give, I'm gonna read it. Charlie is so busy, and plus I
don't think he partakes in this podcast anyway, so there's only no risk of
him hearing this beforehand. But I want to get your take on it,
okay, and is as good as mine my toast? Did chat GPT write
it? Not at all? I wouldn't know. Okay, you mentioned that
last week, and you know what, I would not do that. I'm
going to speak from the heart. But you're gonna like my twist, I
think, But I need your advice. Okay, Okay, we have the
Double D. Yes, we do. We have a movie premiere we do
that you guys are review that you guys both saw. Yes, I have
some information about the psychic world and about this week that my psychic told me,
which I didn't get a reading it, but I have. It's it's
kind of interesting. Maybe we'll talk to her on Thursday because it's weird and
we have something we forgot to play last week. I was just thinking about
that today. We totally got so wrapped up in each other. We sure
did like we always do. So before we get to our sponsors, and
all of this wedding stuff that I have to share with you. Let's play
our secret sound now if you guess this on our Facebook page, on Instagram,
on YouTube in the comments Laura Cane after dark ad, however you get
a hold of its? One hundred dollars is the prize? What is this
secret sound? Let's see I remember which buttons on? Okay, nope,
no, it's good, it's okay. You know what taking this? No,
that's the wedding music. Oh boy, fire, I think you took
off the secret sound. Oh I thought you had on the computer mother mother
above. Is there any way to get it right now? Or should we
just wait till thursday? Okay, it's on your phone, isn't it?
My phone's right here. I'm doing Instagram. That's what it sounds like.
Has anyone gotten close? Uhs? Someone got kind of in the area closer
than I've gotten. Yes, we Okay, here's how I'm taking this week,
not day by day, but hour by hour, just because there's a
lot going on. So this secret sound thing fail, no big deal?
Right, well, let it slide for today. Yeah, go check out
older episodes to hear it. Yeah, exactly, that's so smart and then
we'll play it on thirst. Just not last week because we forgot. I
know last week we completely completely forgot. But anyway, it's just a fun
little thing. You can blame it on me being here like at seven oh
two. No, I'm gonna blame it on myself because usually right down that's
thinks so much better. I'm gonna take full responsibility before we get to our
sponsors. Do you feel like, no, you're not going to do that.
We're not. I was gonna say, we're gonna pick a tarot card.
I have one of these like easy tarot cards to do. Okay,
this is how this week is going to be for each one of us.
Okay, now let me take my cheap tarot cards where we only get to
pick one. These are this is the easy pack where it's not real like
uh, convoluted, it's really easy. Okay, So I'm gonna end I
saw twice this week, Renee, she calls me your boyfriend. Oh,
everybody loves you. Jesus, she's so sweet. Okay, Hi, Renee,
Now this is what you have to do with taro and whatever good intentions,
let this deck speak the truth, nothing but good intentions and love coming
from my heart onto these cards and here we go. Now, yeah,
we have to ask you a question, though you each have to ask it
a question. She asked, how the w wegging's going to go? Number
one, don't tell me what to do because I might start crying. I
think you should do, but you're free not to do. Now. Of
course I could ask you about the wedding. That's the biggest thing of my
sass. Love you too. You know what all I'm going to say is
be prepared for a lot of different emotions coming up. Uh oh, it's
it hit me. I went down to Mexico today to get my nails done
because it's like thirty dollars there to get acrylics, and they look really pretty,
very classy. I got my teeth done in Mexico too, But I
don't even remember the point of the story. All right, let's just draw
the taro car. This is how, this is how it's happening. I
have so much on my mind before I leave for Portland. Okay, you
guys each think of a question. I have a feeling we're going to have
a wardrobe malfunction before the evening's over. Yeah, I'll explain this dress and
I'll I have other things to share. All right, now, Eric,
close your eyes, Okay, I want you to think very seriously about a
question. Okay, Okay, Now run your hands over this deck. I'm
holding it. Whatever just kind of speaks to you, okay, and then
hand it to me. Okay, Okay. I love how seriously you're taking
this. Okay, First of all, what was your question? My question?
Yeah? So I can so we can turn this over and see what
it says. I didn't know I had to do a question. What were
you thinking about? Just now? Just what cards spoke to me? All
right? All right, so you picked the the eight of pinnacles, find
work life balance to protect your creativity, Education, detail, perseverance, overly
careful apprenticeship, talent, high standards, skills, rebirth, settled decisions,
practicality, contribution. Does that speak to you at all? Yes? Really?
Yes? Okay, Brian, you're going to use my energy. No,
No, I'm gonna fan the cards out a little more and I will
give them an ocular path down. Okay, put your finger in the middle.
Go one. Yeah that one? Okay, here it is didn't speak
to me, but I just looked at it. Did you have a question.
Oh yeah, okay, what was what's your question? I would say
it's a secret. Well, I want to see how the card answers it.
Okay, what's the rest of twenty twenty four gonna look like? Okay,
you picked the Orange Man, you picked the the Six of Pentacles.
Okay. Sharing your success builds more success in quotes, giving, receiving,
fairness, justice, generosity, sharing, influence, nobility, harmony, alignment,
healing, empathy. Not good at that one, I know. So
maybe it's telling you, actually, I'm very good at empathy. I'm terrible
at sympathy, though I wouldn't say you were great at empathy as far as
i'm empathy is just knowing how other people's other people feel, and sympathy is
actually caring. Oh okay, well anyway, I am sympathetic, but not
on the show. It's just telling you to be a little bit more like,
share your talent, be more giving. All right, twenty twenty four
is gonna suck. And obviously you know what my question is. Yes,
I'll just say it out loud. How is this wedding week going to be
for the bride and groom and for my family? I got bad energy from
that one the Nina swords nine swords a wedding that's not too many swords.
Worrying, changes, nothing, decide your next step, Anxiety, anguish,
hopelessness, worry, captivity, and it says, in order to conquer these
strength, selflessness, deeper meaning optimism. I have all those things right now.
That was infuriatingly relevant to m HM. Okay, so there's that.
Now, let's do our fabulous sponsors before we move on to the wedding toast
that I need your guys's advice on and the dresses I'm thinking about wearing again.
The wedding is Sunday in Portland. But let's talk about Skidada. Yes,
yes, this is important. I'm part of it. It's September seventh.
I'm the MC. It's my second year doing it. It's a five
k walk for research for SCAD, which is a very little known heart They
don't know how this happens, but it's a heart attack that happens in healthy
women under the age of fifty. I want you talk about the walk and
I'll talk about what SCAT all right, you do that? Okay, So
spontaneous coronary artery dissection. That's why it's SCAT is a little known, poorly
understood cause of art attack. Most patients are young, healthy, active women,
and they don't have typical risk factors of heart disease. It can also
affect men, but women are mostly affected. It can reoccur, it could
be fatal. Research is desperately needed, and this is what the walk is
raising money for, is the research. Last year it was really a whole
lot of fun talk about the walk. So our timed five k run walk
takes place on the east side of Crown Point Park in San Diego on Mission
Bay. Enjoy the course along the bay on the Bay side walkway wards will
be given to the overall winner male and female. And if you register by
August sixteenth, you get a T shirt And it's a beautiful I walked with
Firewife last year. Oh yes, she's a Scout survivor. That's right,
yes, And there's like vendors and face painting afterwards. It's just a fun,
fun day. A link is on Laura Kane after dark dot com.

Go to the glamfam dot com. Okay, thank you guys for being
sponsors of the podcast. We so appreciate it, we really do. This
podcast is going to be wedding talk heavy because as a mother, three things
are very big in your life. When your child is born, when your
child gets married, and when your child has a child. These are three
monumental moments in your lifetime. This is a monumental moment and I'm feeling it
in all sorts of crazy ways. Like my baby boy, who is just
right here. He was just here, my baby boy, kind of your
baby. You helped raise him. I know he's getting married, man,
I know, and it's to a person. I couldn't have picked a better
mate for him. Yeah, she's very sweet, the best, her family,
incredible, lucky, lucky, lucky. I could say enough good things.
But a lot of prep has gone on over the last couple of months
and weeks. So I want to show you the three dresses I've narrowed it
down to, and I want you to be honest, I haven't I'm not
going to try him on, but I just want to show him to you.
Let's start there. Okay, this stress that I'm wearing right now,
I bought on sale from a website. It came in the mail, and
I'm like, Okay, I'm in my fifties. I have no business wearing
this to a wedding, to a shower, period, anywhere outside. I
look like I'm fourteen years old. Well, this is this is ridiculous.
That's why I wore tonights. It's so dumb. Well, this is my
question. When you saw it? Yeah online, I'm assuming yes, was
this here? Yes? But it wasn't. As I'm taking your computer away
again. The theme of the wedding is garden party, and I thought it
was a pretty color. But like, I have no business wearing this.
So I thought you were going to like the opening of a peptobismo plank or
something. Believe me, I know it's awful. It's beyond I feel like
singing on the good Ship Lollipop. It's a nice trip to the candy shop.
I mean, it looks like Arbie Gone Rogue. I'm not I'm not
wearing this one. Thank It's like a waitress of the Mexican restaurant. Okay,
so this dress garden party. It's chill smallish Portland outside evening time covered.
These are the basics, okay, okay, so then I picked this
one from Amazon, and then because it's garden party floral, and then I
thought, wait, oh too casual? Yeah, too loud? It is
nice, it is a little too casual. Also, it's mostly white.
Now are you that's a no? Are you planning on returning these? These
all have tags on them still? Yes? Okay, I could wear this
to the shower. But is it that's a good shower dress? What are
your thoughts on that he hates? I think he just hates the it period.
Is it a single strap? Yes? Oh yeah, it's kind of
weird. Okay, So this one is one of the ones that yeah,
I know, I know, I know. Having only one strap that style
dress throws me. Can I just set fire to it? No, I
need to return it. Okay. Here are the two that if I see
that on a hangar in a year, you won't Okay, I'm either gonna
wear this one or the next one. Now, this one also has one
strap, but it's different. Okay. I liked that one. Okay,
it's long, Yes, one strap, hmm, it looks better on sure,
it's got a slit, but the slit is not too high. It's
comfortable, pretty green color, very not sexy, not overpowering. There's that.
Okay, the colors a little thrown me off a little bit, but
it is very garden party evening. Yes, let's see. The next one's
fine, but here's the thing. I'm gonna need to see shoes, and
I'm gonna need to see accessories. I know. No, I don't want
any white thigh high go go boosts. Oh no, I know. Okay,
I might not be that smart, but I'm not that dumb to wear
boots too. Is my son's waiting, Okay, I just wanted to make
sure here's the number one choice so far. Thoughts, please and believe me.
This looks pretty good on and it makes my body look good but not
too sexy and yo oh no, oh no, but trust me, I
like it. It looks it's flowers. I know it looks like Dowdy right
now, but like on, it's just below the knee. I'm gonna need
the powers and it's it looks like a large doily or a table runner in
an old I think it looks good, it has potential. I'll try it
on, but Okay, this dress, the number one dress so far,
is the cheapest one of the bunch. Tamu, thank you very much to
do that. Yeah, it just reminds me of it like a lace doily
at like an old lady's house. That's true, but I think it looks
fine after the podcast when I tried it on. Then tell me what I
think, because your your opinion matters most out of anybody else's because you're the
stylist of the group. Yeah. Yeah, I'll have to see it.
So there's that now. Charlie asked me the following question. He said,
Hey, Mom, would you do as a favor? Sure, I'll do
anything, Charlie. Well, for Christmas, I gave him an old camcorder
that I used to film all his baby stuff and Evan's baby stuff, and
I refurbished it and I gave it to him. He goes, you know
that cam quarter you gave me for Christmas? Yes, I think it'd be
cool to take video of our vows and stuff on that camera. Will you
be the videographer? I'm like, I will. I'll do anything for you,
Charlie. Then I start thinking about it. I'm going to be witnessing
my son's wedding through a viewfinder, like right, I'm working my son's way.
I'm not the mother of the groom. I am a I am working
it. You're a working girl. But I'm going to do it because he
asked me to. If it's important to him, exactly yes, and he
as as expected. I talked to him today. He's the stress level is
very, very high, and I said, it's very normal. All every
couple goes through this. You're the week before is a very stressful time,
and don't worry about it. Okay. So then I start thinking about the
toast. It's very important something to say about the couple. And anyway here,
I want to read you what I'm going to say, and I want
your thoughts because I want to make it kind of light and funny in some
parts. Her family has a great sense of humor and they're fun and then
my family does too. So this is what I've written so far. I
mean, I'll say some nice, sweet things, how much I love their
love, blah blah, you know this and this and that. Then I'm
gonna say the following, Hey, Maya, did you know this about Charlie.
I'm gonna tell her I'm gonna tell the cock story. I'm telling the
Shrek story at the end. I'm gonna wait and see how the audience.
But I'll save that for the end. But I told that last week instead
of cartoons and Teletubbies and stuff like that. When Charlie was two and three,
he would spend hours in front of the TV watching a super dry,
super old, very boring documentary about Half Dome. It was the most boring,
dry thing you've ever seen. The kid would sit there for hours and
be glued to that. We couldn't understand it. We just didn't get it.
He's a little kid, he's like two and three, Like, what's
so interesting about that? Turns out my son loves to climb. He's a
nature boy. It started early when he was five or six. He picked
up something from the floor of the grocery store one day. He took it
home, drew a face on it, and made a little friend. I
was horrified when he finally showed it to me that night. It was a
wrapped, unused tampon, and he made his little friend, drew a face
on it, and we made a little song called Tampy the damp On.
I would not tell that story. Okay, there's that little fun factory.
When Charlie's very first word was not mama, It wasn't data, it wasn't
poo poo, it wasn't anything like that. It was bird. What little
kid can pronounce bird and nosebird? But that's an interesting little factoid. The
first word he ever spelled was mom, but he spelled it oh m o
oh mo. I will always remember the little writing, the scribbling. When
he was eight, our neighbor when we lived in Kensington cut down a huge
tree that was growing next to our house. When Charlie got home from school
that day, he dropped to his knees after he saw that the tree was
gone, put his head in his hands and mourned and sobbed. He was
eight. He loved that tree, and I knew from that point on,
like this kid is connected to nature. Then this one. In second grade,
his Catholic school teacher, sister Kathleen, had the kids memorize and perform
a poem in front of class and parents. Most kids chose Doctor Seuss or
shel Silverstein or no, not Charlie. Charlie memorized and proudly recited this gem
by Stephen crane again. Second grade. In the desert, I saw a
creature, naked bestial, who squatting upon the ground, held his heart in
his hands and ate of it. I said, is it good, friend?
It is bitter, bitter, he answered, But I like it because
it is bitter and because it is my heart. The parents it was silent.
They awkwardly clapped. I looked at sister Kathleen. She was white as
a ghost, and she just about passed out. What the heck was?
Where was I when this is going? Oh? And then finally this one.
When I was pregnant with Evan, Charlie was four, we finished watching
a beautiful movie about a whale when I fell asleep on the recliner with him
on my lap. When I woke up, Charlie was still on my lap,
wide awake, sitting upright, his eyes wide to my horror, the
end credits to the movie The Ring We're scrolling across the stream. He watched
the entire thing alone while I was this, Oh my god. Thus began
our scary movie club. He saw Jaws, Poultergeist, and The Exorcists before
he was the age of six. Other good movies they are, but we
and so and then I'll say some nicer things. But like, anyway,
what are your thoughts on like the fun Charlie factoids out with the tampon.
I don't think it's it's kind of cute. You just think it's gross because
because it's a female thing. Yeah, you fine. I mean I don't
think it's like hilarious, but it's it's not bad. I think the other
ones are better, but I think it's still good. I think the other
ones are better. Okay, does the Shrek story stay or go? Did
you didn't even tell the Shrek story I did on the podcast last week?
What was he just called? You don't want to say? Cock? Cock
and tampon is probably not two things that you don't want to know. I
think it's a great time to embarrass him. I mean, that's what you
genuinely did. It's just so innocent and sweet. And he was so little
and he loved Shrek but he couldn't say Shrek, so he'd ask for it
in the grocery store by saying, Mama, I want to see cock.
I think that's funny. That's what I said when I was a kid.
But check hadn't even come out yet, and that's something different. Okay,
So those are just some notes that have scribbled down. And then he caught
I talked him today and he goes, Mom, I want you to do
a toast. I'm like, Charlie, done, already done, and he
goes, but I want. I think it should be short. I'm like,
all right, listen, kid, I've been in this business of talking
for thirty years. I know when to cut it short and when the crowd
is not into it, trust me, I will do that. But I
have some things I want to say. And then I want Maya's mom to
tell me some funny things about Maya so I can she can do the same
things that I'm doing. Oh is that a funny idea? Yeah, that's
good. One more thing about the wedding, and then we'll get to double
D. I bought this because I thought it would be cool for their little
guest book. Have you heard of this idea where guests take pictures on this
little baby polaroid and then they stick them in the guest books and then they
write, by then picture, so let's take a picture of us, you
guys see if this I've been like trying to properly figure out the right lighting,
because I went through like, already here we go, you and me,
here's the little selfie thing ready one, two three, So you have
to sit and wait for it to develop and everything. But guess he's going
to probably have to man the guest book me as well. But I'm okay
with God. You're going to be an octopus? Is this thing? No?
So I got that? No? What else do I need to talk
about? That's it? Did I talk about? Oh yeah, I talked
about that. Okay, So now let's cue the double D music because Eric
has some double D that's his gig. We do it every Monday Tuesday show.
Doesn't come, Oh my god? Really? Oh there, Hello,
my baby, Oh my little man's here. Look at that just comes and
lays it right down. I had him in the room for a reason,
Oh my baby. All right. So, lots of sad news in Hollywood
this week. It's been nothing but tragedy. Shelley Devall passed away from the
Shining and the movie Popeye. Oh was she seventy something? Next thing?
Yeah, I think Shannon Doherty passed away from cancer. She'd been battling it
for a while. She was fifty three years old. Really hold on quick
pause. Actually looks like our cameras off. Oh, like all we're stuck
in a frozen position. And are you too, I know, Okay,
we're an audio podcast. Now keep going, all right, no problem.
Doctor Ruth the Sex Doctor died at ninety six. Wow, good long life.
Yeah, And Richard Simmons passed away at seventy six years old. Now
do we know the cause of death yet? They haven't released it. But
I saw today that hell in his bathroom and declined to have any help.
So I'm not sure what that was about. But he's been reclusive for years
now, so I don't I don't really know if it was, which is
so strange because he was so full of life, so about people, so
about entertainment, so like energetic, and then boom vanished just you know,
kind of vanished without a trace. And there was all sorts of things about,
like his housekeeper holding him hostage, all that, yes, all that
crazy stuff. And so yes, she was seventy five, actually not seventy
six, and she passed away due to complications from diabetes. Do you remember
the movie Nashville? No, Oh, she was in that, you know,
she was. She had I watched a documentary on the Shin and she
almost quit show business because of how she was treated by Stanley Kubrick. Yeah,
she got a good performance. Guys. There is a documentary about Stanley
Kubrick and it it's basically about how they believe he was hired by the government
to fake the moonland Oh yeah, that's old news. But there's like all
these like clues in the shining. It was just it was pretty interesting,
though, that's an old No, he didn't. I was like, we
didn't have the technology to fake the moon landing when the moon landing happened.
Yeah, anyway, Yeah, I think I talked about this a couple of
weeks ago right after I saw her, because she said it during the show.
But I saw Ellen DeGeneres in her last stand up routine and she is
done with show business, wants her Net Flicks special airs this year. She's
done. Is that that similar to something that the thing that you saw at
Bubble Theater? Yeah, it's the exact same it is, ok Yeah,
I think they were even shooting part of it for that okay thing. I'm
sure no one likes her anymore is the bigger problem. And if all that
stuff about the toxic workplace and working at Ellen was is untrue. That's really
sad that that just killed her career. Yeah, it's probably not untrue as
the problem, but on the she just seems so nice and giving and wonderful,
and that show is so incredibly popular and sure, but that's the only
the audience facing perspective. But you know, it was funny because I went
to a taping of the show and when when the you know, when the
commercials were being run, she would not speak to anybody. She just sat
there and she didn't act with the audience. She didn't do anything. Was
there like dancing in between the commercials? Okay? Nothing? She her you
know, the makeup artists would come up and touch up her makeup, and
her producer would come over, but she wouldn't acknowledge the audience. She didn't
do anything. Hm hm. So last bit of news is the new bon
Jovi album may set a record for being terrible. It spent only one week
on the Billboard two hundred and fell off. That's too bad because I was
really pulling for him. He had vocal cord surgery and they said he was
never going to sing again, and then he put out this album, and
then row Yeah, not good. He'll never be living on a prayer like
that. His best song. That's a great song. Bon Jovi is great.
Yeah, and then we have a couple of things to talk about.
Oh yeah, the movie review. Oh my god, So Brian and I
both saw Long Legs and Long Legs is a scary movie because it is deemed
the scariest movie of twenty twenty four. Okay, it got almost one hundred
percent approval on Rotten Tomatoes. That's amazing. I think it has dropped down
since audience reviews have come out. I think it's like an eighty nine or
something. Yeah, it was. I'll say this, and then I would
love to hear Brian Wayhan. I heard it was extremely terrifying. It was
like a mix between Silence of the Lambs and Seven Great. Both were movies
that I enjoyed a lot. Seven scared the Jesus out of me, and
I thought, okay, I went in with high hopes. I heard the
reviews are really good, the performances were good. It was just it kind
of fell apart in the third act and I just didn't get it. Were
you scared at all? Not at all? Not a good I was mainly
bored. Oh god, and the people were saying, oh my god,
it's uber violent, like it's so gory, and I was like, no,
it wasn't. Like I was like, I don't know what movie you
all saw, but I didn't think it was did you. There is a
couple of scenes of violence and they are gory, but I it's not.
It's not like a Gore movie. No, not at all. And it
happens really quick and kind of from a distance, so it's not like it's
these lingering close ups or anything like that. So, yeah, it was
really strange. Did you enjoy it, Brian, Yeah, so I think
it is really I think it's a really good movie. It is not scary
at least I did not. I was not scared it. I mean,
I'm not really scared, but like I wasn't even like I think also the
movie is too damn good for me to be scared by it, because even
the scenes are supposed to be scary. I was just like, this is
phenomenal, Like this is so well, you know, compared like Shot the
Lightning is perfect. I was to an offer it to be like actually scary.
There are some definitely some scenes that are more creepy and some shots that
are pretty well set up and creepy looking. It's not scary. Also,
I think the biggest problem is the movie needs to be longer. It's only
like an hour and thirty minutes and forty minutes. It really should be a
full two hours. I think it would have been better. I don't think
the third act is terrible, and that's where things where it starts to kind
of explain the point, and it definitely doesn't live up to the mystery it
sets up. But I still think it's I still think the ending is unfulfilling
too. I don't. Yeah, ending is kind of unsatisfied. It's very
creepy and dark and the brooding. Yeah, it's you don't come out of
it feeling good at all. Okay, I didn't think it was. I
didn't think it was that bad. It is. It is definitely has a
darker atmosphere, yeah, which I think it does really well with. But
it is. It is a fantastic movie, and Nicholas Cage gives a stellar
performance in Is. He was very very even though make her Mom Row,
she was good. She was very good, and she was great, and
so was the woman that played the mother Alicia Wit and then Blair underwo who's
the other cop? Was really good. We need to touch on now we're
not a political show. That's not our niche. However, we need to
talk about what happened to Trump and what we were talking about before the show
started. So there was an assassination attempt two days ago yesterday. Now do
you have any current information about like is he he got hit? He's fine,
So it clipped just the upper part of his year, okay, and
then he's still going strong. Apparently there was like some picture that is like
epic great picture. How's Joe Biden? Have they like lately? Yeah,
they released a statement. I read about that on Saturday, and like today
anything current like that? He's in general or just really in general? And
no, not related to this. It related to me. His his health.
Oh, he's falling apart. His campaign has really falling apart. It's
it's last two weeks, three weeks. So is it are they picking a
new candidate? Nope? No, unlikely. Okay, So it's wow,
it's I mean, this is still a hot race, this is not this
is still a toss up. I would say Trump has a little bit of
an edge now where it's been pretty neck and neck. The assassination temp was
insane and Trump barely made out alive. I mean he turned his head at
the perfect second, otherwise it would have gone straight through the back of his
brain. I I initially thought it was a joke. Yeah, Like I
thought it was a joke because of the way it all went down. It
was like a super slow turn and then you heard like this, pop pop
pop, and then the Secret Service. It was so odd the way they
reacted, and then he was like, oh, I need my shoe,
and then he popped up and was doing this. I was like, is
this Is this just like a stunt? Is this like a bit? Because
I thought there's no way this was real. And then when I heard that
somebody passed away like a guy protecting his family, I was like, oh
shit, you know this and the shooter a twenty one year old Republican.
Well yeah, so there. I mean, there's plenty of conspiracy theories right
now. We don't know much. All we know is he what he recently
registered Republican and then a couple of years ago he vote he donated to Democrat
Superpass, So it's hard to say what he what his actual we don't know
his motivation is the stuff that came out the following day, I was like,
you gotta be and I knew it was coming. It was like,
you know, I knew the you know, the supporters of Trump, we're
going to say, Oh, it's you know, by ordered the hit and
stuff. And that's exactly what came out and all this crazy, you know
stuff. And I was like, oh, Lord, have mercy. But
do you think this is the best thing in I'm trying to say this in
the right words, best thing for his campaign? Yes, yeah, oh
absolutely, this is great for him. Oh yeah, it's a It's a
total coup for him, unfortunately. And I hope, my hope is that
it humbles him and that he you know, because I experience he was out
spreading a message of hope, and I was like, that was not a
message of hope that he was speaking of. In my opinion, I think,
yeah, I do think. I think that is not just a unique
Trump problem. Now, I think both sides are equally guilty of that.
Trump is actually so shockingly restrained this campaign, yes, compared to like the
twenty sixteen, twenty twenty campaigns. So he's still Trump, and he's still
you know, probably a terrible person again, but there's there. Him and
Biden are basically the same side of a coin. Now are the you know,
same coins, separate sides. But it's I've never seen anything like that.
Yeah, it's it is crazy time and people from other countries like that.
We're nuts down here. Okay, Well we'll leave it at that.
We don't want to go like deep. I don't want to go deep.
So I want to talk about two other shows that I've won. Is a
documentary which you would love, Brian, I'm a huge Next to these are
two of my favorite actresses in the world, Jessica Lang and Fade doun Away.
I love Faye Dunaway. And there's a new documentary on HBO Max.
It just premiered on Saturday Night. It's called Faye and it's you know,
about her and her career and all of that. And it was really really
good. Okay, And then because I couldn't resist, I watched because they're
always so bad. I don't know how his name gets put on anything to
direct Tyler Perry you don't like Medea or No. And it was called Divorce
in the Black. It got a zero percent on Rotten Tomatoes. It was
probably I think I turned it off after about maybe fifteen minutes. It was
I don't even know how money gets spent on a movie like that. Wow,
because it's got Megan Good in it, who and she's normally a fairly
competent actress. I just watched something called American Nightmare. It's a real story
about a woman who got kidnapped with her husband, got tied up. She
got kidnap, but then they released her and she came home and they blamed
everything on her and said it was a hoax, when in reality it wasn't.
That. It's really good. I thought that was pretty definitively that she
did hoax it though not at all. No, it was god to see
that you got to start. I remember that case. I feel like it
was very I'm really glad that she is speaking and telling the real story because
that she was vilified. Yeah she was unfairly. But anyway, here's how
our little picture turned out. Isn't it cute? They're a little leg a
little and that cute and be fun. Okay, coming up on Thursday.
Coming up on Thursday, I would like to tell everybody you do not want
to miss this. On Thursday when I was on the phone with you,
