• 0:18Speaker 01

  Hey, can you come pick me up? Yeah, what's wrong? Nothing. Pretty sure. Yeah, no, I just need a ride. Oh my god. So why, I just wanna have fun. Start your engine. Tight.

• 0:30Benito Skinner?

  I'm Benito Skinner.

• 0:31Mary Beth Barone?

  I'm Mary Beth Brown.

• 0:32Benito Skinner?

  And this?

• 0:33Mary Beth Barone?

  Is?

• 0:34Benito Skinner?

  Ride.

• 0:40Benito Skinner?

  Woo! She got some stank on there. Welcome back to another week of Encyclopedia. I'm sure I've gotten some DMs about how you didn't fuck with these episodes. But here's the thing. Sometimes mommy and daddy need a little break and I need to go see my nephews.

• 0:53Mary Beth Barone?

  I'm sorry, can we just like be nice?

• 0:55Benito Skinner?

  No, we have to be nice. You have to just be nice to us and like, we'll, we'll deliver.

• 1:01Mary Beth Barone?

  We'll give you the world.

• 1:02Benito Skinner?

  We'll deliveroo. What's it called?

• 1:03Mary Beth Barone?

  Deliveroo. Oh, I meant to say something.

• 1:04Benito Skinner?

  Yes!

• 1:05Mary Beth Barone?

  In London, they call Christmas lights fairy lights. Doesn't that make a lot of sense?

• 1:10Benito Skinner?

  What'd you just call me?

• 1:10Mary Beth Barone?

  I just took my zip up off. I don't think we're gonna clip.

• 1:13Benito Skinner?

  We cannot have these on camera. I can't have more of this.

• 1:17Mary Beth Barone?

  My bobbies?

• 1:17Benito Skinner?

  They're gonna see the difference between me.

• 1:19Mary Beth Barone?

  What?

• 1:20Benito Skinner?

  How I look right now and I'm sure I looked cuter for the Encyclopedia.

• 1:23Mary Beth Barone?

  I don't know, we were pretty pale.

• 1:24Benito Skinner?

  Cool.

• 1:25Mary Beth Barone?

  So, yeah.

• 1:26Benito Skinner?

  Jesus. I need the sun, I need to be held, I need...

• 1:29Mary Beth Barone?

  We hope you're all having fun wherever the holidays have taken you. I'll say that much.

• 1:33Benito Skinner?

  Yeah, I hope you're like also taking time for yourself. Like, I hope you're like in a closet right now, very like, is that Hanny or Hanny or Ally? Ally or Hanny? Annie or Hallie?

• 1:42Mary Beth Barone?

  Oh, Annie or Hallie.

• 1:43Benito Skinner?

  I literally just had a stroke.

• 1:44Mary Beth Barone?

  I saw that, that was scary.

• 1:46Benito Skinner?

  In the, in the closet when she's like taking calls? Cause her family was in Bora Bora.

• 1:50Mary Beth Barone?

  Bora Bora. Her family's on vacation in a Bora Bora.

• 1:54Benito Skinner?

  They clocked her time difference.

• 1:55Mary Beth Barone?

  No, but she was, she was on the ball.

• 1:57Benito Skinner?

  She was close.

• 1:58Mary Beth Barone?

  Cause she's British, she was raised right.

• 1:59Benito Skinner?

  That's right.

• 2:00Mary Beth Barone?

  Who knows different time zones?

• 2:01Benito Skinner?

  So, yeah, I hope you're doing that locked in a closet, listening to us. Take some like time for yourself. The holidays can be a lot and, yeah, they can weigh on you.

• 2:09Mary Beth Barone?

  Let's reset after this crazy year.

• 2:11Benito Skinner?

  God, how excited are we to not be in 2025 anymore? Can I just say?

• 2:15Mary Beth Barone?

  The worst year on record for me and a lot of people.

• 2:17Benito Skinner?

  I'm so sorry.

• 2:18Mary Beth Barone?

  For a lot of people. And I, I don't wanna say...

• 2:20Benito Skinner?

  It's not my favorite, but then some was amazing. I loved half so much, other half hated.

• 2:24Mary Beth Barone?

  A lot of good things happened, but also some people have it worse than me. I'm gonna acknowledge that, like, I had a lot of stuff, but of course, there's people.

• 2:31Benito Skinner?

  Two things can be true.

• 2:32Mary Beth Barone?

  Oh, I saw someone, actually, I didn't even wanna say it. I'll tell you after, it just pissed me off.

• 2:36Benito Skinner?

  Keep all this.

• 2:37Mary Beth Barone?

  And we will. I thought of this the other day. The best thing to happen to a person with generational wealth is they start a small business and then they get ripped off by a big box retailer and then the internet will always be on their side.

• 2:49Benito Skinner?

  Perfect.

• 2:49Mary Beth Barone?

  It's extremely specific, but you know what I mean.

• 2:52Benito Skinner?

  Of course.

• 2:53Mary Beth Barone?

  Like, if you come from wealth and you start like a little clothing company and you have like one design that Zara steals or like, you know, H and M or... I mean, you're set for life.

• 3:03Benito Skinner?

  Yeah, what a gift.

• 3:04Mary Beth Barone?

  And can I just say, congrats?

• 3:05Benito Skinner?

  Oh, God.

• 3:06Mary Beth Barone?

  Cause you killed that.

• 3:07Benito Skinner?

  Zara, take any of the ride designs you want. Please. Urban Outfitters, take them all.

• 3:13Mary Beth Barone?

  Take them.

• 3:14Benito Skinner?

  They're yours. Shein? Love you, kid.

• 3:17Mary Beth Barone?

  Well, I love you, kid!

• 3:19Benito Skinner?

  Yeah.

• 3:19Mary Beth Barone?

  Yeah.

• 3:20Benito Skinner?

  Yeah.

• 3:20Mary Beth Barone?

  We're all gonna drown. People think that we're gonna die because the sea level's rising. No, no, no, no, we're gonna drown in fast fashion. Fast fashion is gonna suffocate us. We're gonna be at Melrose Podcast and all of a sudden, fast fashion is gonna blow through the door and it's gonna fill the room!

• 3:35Benito Skinner?

  I'm five-four, straight to the fucking go.

• 3:38Mary Beth Barone?

  I can't breathe.

• 3:41Benito Skinner?

  I'm scrambling and it's all those see-through nude high heels that they sell on Shein where everyone's feet just look like stuffed salamis and I can see the heat and the steam rising from toes.

• 3:52Mary Beth Barone?

  The only people that will survive are people that are in flight at the time.

• 3:57Benito Skinner?

  Wait, so it will be us. We will survive.

• 3:59Mary Beth Barone?

  They're gonna land on a bunch of clothes and they're gonna get out and go, what the fuck happened?

• 4:03Benito Skinner?

  They land on a bunch of skims.

• 4:07Benito Skinner?

  Trying to get their... This is them trying to get tread over skims. Over a skims nipple bra, which I need. Who's that?

• 4:15Mary Beth Barone?

  Just my friend. You'll meet her on Wednesday.

• 4:17Benito Skinner?

  We're recording.

• 4:18Mary Beth Barone?

  I know.

• 4:19Benito Skinner?

  Well, we hope you enjoy part two. We love you, we miss you. Hopefully, you know, this is so helpful and you also think about gratitude, cause it's also cool to have a new episode. So, think about the next time we'll have one of those.

• 4:31Mary Beth Barone?

  We're putting these out so you'll be more grateful when we record new stuff.

• 4:35Benito Skinner?

  Yeah, cause we're tough. We're tough parents.

• 4:37Mary Beth Barone?

  Sometimes you'll listen to a song more than once. I mean, it's not the craziest idea.

• 4:41Benito Skinner?

  It's not the craziest idea. And also, you don't know the layers. Like, when we go back, how we edit, how we weave things in.

• 4:46Mary Beth Barone?

  Thank you.

• 4:48Benito Skinner?

  We love you. Mary Quasimoy.

• 4:49Mary Beth Barone?

  Mary Quasimoy. Wait, where are we going?

• 4:52Benito Skinner?

  Who cares? Ride! Welcome back to episode two of the most confusing encyclopedia of ride you've ever experienced, Me Love.

• 5:01Mary Beth Barone?

  Crack open those books, kids. We're studying today.

• 5:04Benito Skinner?

  We have to start with Me Love.

• 5:06Mary Beth Barone?

  Do they understand the assignment?

• 5:08Benito Skinner?

  No, sister. So, Me Love. Me Love is obviously a derivative of My Love. As I said in part one, this is all Latin. So, absolutely. So, Me Love is just you put My and Love together and it's Me Love. And it's just anyone who's Me Love.

• 5:26Mary Beth Barone?

  But it's spelled M I L U V.

• 5:28Benito Skinner?

  Yeah, some people don't get that. I really want to get the spelling right on this. Consistent and cohesive. Everything has to be cohesive for me because I have OCD and you should also know that if you're listening to Ride.

• 5:38Mary Beth Barone?

  And you should know that we're all about love and positivity and positive vibes on this podcast, except for Zachary Levi.

• 5:44Benito Skinner?

  Yeah.

• 5:44Mary Beth Barone?

  So, we really like to perpetuate this idea of love and love being the most powerful thing in the universe as Christopher Nolan showed us in Interstellar.

• 5:53Benito Skinner?

  Totally.

• 5:53Mary Beth Barone?

  And also, so our listeners are the baronies. They have enlisted in the Army of Love.

• 5:58Benito Skinner?

  The Army of Love. Hut, hut!

• 6:01Mary Beth Barone?

  Hut, hut!

• 6:02Benito Skinner?

  Army of Love.

• 6:02Mary Beth Barone?

  And you have to salute to the Army of Love.

• 6:05Benito Skinner?

  You have to salute to the Army of Love because we know that love conquers all evil.

• 6:11Mary Beth Barone?

  And love and showing kindness, grace and gratitude is the only way that we're going to make the world a better place. And that's why we do this podcast.

• 6:19Benito Skinner?

  Yeah, that's the Army of Love Manifesto.

• 6:22Mary Beth Barone?

  It is the Army of Love Manifesto, which we, maybe we should actually write and post on Ride the Pod for the holidays.

• 6:27Benito Skinner?

  Yeah.

• 6:27Mary Beth Barone?

  Our intentions going into next year are all about just trying to lead with empathy, love and kindness and pass that on. And when you're frustrated, just take a breath and don't be mean to the people that love you and that you love just because it's easier than actually like confronting issues. I don't know. Army of Love to me is like so special and important and I think go to Berry's, go to SoulCycle, do your Peloton class. We are training for Battle Me Love.

• 6:51Benito Skinner?

  We are training in your Alita Battle Angel.

• 6:53Mary Beth Barone?

  Alita.

• 6:55Benito Skinner?

  I don't have to explain that to straight guys. Alita's straight culture.

• 6:58Mary Beth Barone?

  Don't call me Angel.

• 7:00Benito Skinner?

  Please don't call me. Whatever you do, can you please not call me Angel?

• 7:04Mary Beth Barone?

  Dude, can you not call me Angel?

• 7:06Benito Skinner?

  Come on.

• 7:06Mary Beth Barone?

  Come on.

• 7:07Benito Skinner?

  Don't call me Angel.

• 7:08Mary Beth Barone?

  Please, anything but that.

• 7:10Benito Skinner?

  Don't call me Angel. We've never talked about on the pod until the encyclopedia.

• 7:14Mary Beth Barone?

  We can list new things. That's our podcast.

• 7:16Benito Skinner?

  It's our podcast. And sometimes it's good to know things that are coming.

• 7:19Mary Beth Barone?

  They're Easter eggs.

• 7:20Benito Skinner?

  I do think I'll ride for the song "Don't Call Me Angel" because I think there's nothing more iconic than having a movie about three women who are crime fighting badasses in The Army of Love, and they are specifically called Angels. And then the-

• 7:36Mary Beth Barone?

  The soundtrack features a song.

• 7:38Benito Skinner?

  By Ariana Grande, Lana Del Rey, and Miley Cyrus that says "Don't Call Me Angel."

• 7:42Mary Beth Barone?

  Don't call me Angel.

• 7:44Benito Skinner?

  Say whatever the fuck you want about me.

• 7:47Mary Beth Barone?

  But don't call me Angel. And on that note, I guess we can move on to Manjo B.

• 7:53Benito Skinner?

  Manjo B. Manjo business bitch. So, Manjo business bitch. Oh, and bunching it so in pain and rude.

• 8:05Mary Beth Barone?

  We're introducing that too, which is that you think Britney Spears should have been cast as Ursula.

• 8:09Benito Skinner?

  I think she should have been Ursula. It would have been fucking incredible. Or she's, you know, I would have at least liked to have her on the list. We've all seen her Notebook audition. The girl's got chops.

• 8:18Mary Beth Barone?

  She's got chops.

• 8:19Benito Skinner?

  The woman in me has got chops.

• 8:21Mary Beth Barone?

  Has chops. And she says Manjo B.

• 8:23Benito Skinner?

  Manjo B. So Britney came back with this incredible song with Will I Am? And it's just, it's an earworm and I couldn't stop saying it. So we were doing a show in Chicago. Ride on the road tour, which just, I mean.

• 8:37Mary Beth Barone?

  It was pretty explosive.

• 8:38Benito Skinner?

  Fun was that tour?

• 8:39Mary Beth Barone?

  It was really fun.

• 8:40Benito Skinner?

  That tour was a really good time.

• 8:42Mary Beth Barone?

  Really fun.

• 8:42Benito Skinner?

  We'll do more in the future, I'm sure. But I kept walking into rooms going, Manjo B. Cause it's just, ah, Britney, the earworms that woman can create.

• 8:52Mary Beth Barone?

  It's best if you put your fingers through your belt loops and tilt your head to the side as well.

• 8:55Benito Skinner?

  Manjo business bitch. Where she at? Where she at?

• 8:58Mary Beth Barone?

  Where she at? Where she at?

• 9:00Benito Skinner?

  And where she at? Where's Serena Vanderwoodson? Can you help me with that?

• 9:03Mary Beth Barone?

  Serena has got to go.

• 9:05Benito Skinner?

  So Serena Vanderwoodson on Gossip Girl. She likes to end every single scene on camera.

• 9:13Benito Skinner?

  By saying, "Look, I gotta go."

• 9:16Mary Beth Barone?

  Dan, I gotta go. Dan, I wish I could talk, but I gotta go.

• 9:20Benito Skinner?

  I would say if you're gonna listen to Ride, you should watch every single episode of the original Gossip Girl. It would help.

• 9:27Mary Beth Barone?

  In a short amount of time, if possible as well. Just inject it into your veins.

• 9:31Benito Skinner?

  Yeah.

• 9:32Mary Beth Barone?

  Because then you're gonna notice and pick up on another iconic quote that we have really, really spread across the globe. It went worldwide totally unexpected. Basically, there's this scene in Gossip Girl, season one, where Jenny and Dan and Rufus are in their humongous Brooklyn loft, but they're poor, which is kind of interesting. And Dan's cut himself shaving, and then Jenny kind of razzes him a little bit. Then he looks at her and she goes, "I'm your sister. It's what I do. It's what I do." Famous line reads in history should be immortalized. It's really important, and we have to teach them to our kids because history isn't done.

• 10:08Benito Skinner?

  History isn't done. We don't have to teach the straight guys that. History isn't done. It's so obvious.

• 10:15Mary Beth Barone?

  Hey, you guys, it's Mary Beth here. I hope you're enjoying the encyclopedia of Ride. This episode is brought to you by NoCD. So picture this: Benny Dramas going about his day when suddenly a horrifying thought flashes through his mind. Maybe it's a fear of something happening to a loved one, a disturbing or sexual image that keeps replaying in your mind, or an urge to do something that you really don't want to do. You think, "Why did I think that? Am I a bad person? Or why did Benny think that? Is Benny a bad person?" It starts to consume him, and you feel like you have to do something, anything, to make them go away. If that sounds familiar, guess what? These disturbing unwanted thoughts are more common than you think. But for people with OCD, they actually cause a lot of stress and feel hard to stop thinking about.

• 11:00Mary Beth Barone?

  So here's the thing: Benny found OCD. And NoCD is a virtual therapy provider for OCD that's here to help anyone struggling with OCD and taboo or shameful thoughts.

• 11:45Mary Beth Barone?

  It's about to be a new year, new year, new you. NoCD.

• 11:50Benito Skinner?

  So, welcome to our next Señorita ad.

• 11:52Mary Beth Barone?

  So, this is Señorita ad.

• 11:53Benito Skinner?

  You're Camila, I'm Sean.

• 11:55Mary Beth Barone?

  In a world where we're identifying as Camila or Sean. I'm Camila.

• 11:58Benito Skinner?

  Well, yeah, so Señorita, though, was written by Charlie XCX. Isn't that crazy?

• 12:02Mary Beth Barone?

  The Justin Timberlake song?

• 12:03Benito Skinner?

  No, no, no, no, the Sean song.

• 12:05Mary Beth Barone?

  Oh, interesting.

• 12:05Benito Skinner?

  With Camila. So, here's the thing.

• 12:07Mary Beth Barone?

  We love Señorita. I have to say that when these cases arrived at my apartment, I thought to myself, okay, it's a THC drink. I've kind of been off the weed stuff.

• 12:16Benito Skinner?

  Oh, good, another drink on the market. Is what we kind of said back and forth.

• 12:19Mary Beth Barone?

  We rolled our eyes and I have to say, we're on glue.

• 12:22Benito Skinner?

  We were on glue. We had these Señoritas and then we watched Mary Beth's hookup from "Overcompensating", Robbie GK. We had a little buzz going.

• 12:33Mary Beth Barone?

  Don't say Mary Beth's hookup, it was Grace's hookup.

• 12:35Benito Skinner?

  Oh, my God, you, I forgot your method. Oh, my God, I like forgot.

• 12:39Mary Beth Barone?

  No.

• 12:40Benito Skinner?

  But it was so, it was just so fun. These are like, it's just, it's perfect for...

• 12:43Mary Beth Barone?

  It's low calories, it's real ingredients.

• 12:45Benito Skinner?

  For a party, for a movie night, for just hanging out, for like taking a load off after work. And you get No Hangover. Can I talk about the flavor notes? Would you mind?

• 12:52Mary Beth Barone?

  Please, if you wouldn't mind.

• 12:53Benito Skinner?

  It's very much a sommelier of Señorita.

• 12:55Mary Beth Barone?

  Yes.

• 12:55Benito Skinner?

  There's lime jalapeno margarita. It has like a bold, kind of balanced taste, just the right amount of heat, just like me. Mango margarita is more like tropical. Grapefruit paloma is like bright, it's balanced, it's sexual. Ranch water, come on now. It's like dry, bright, and it's like endlessly crushable.

• 13:15Mary Beth Barone?

• 13:42Benito Skinner?

  I want to ring the bell.

• 13:44Mary Beth Barone?

  Yes.

• 13:47Mary Beth Barone?

  Hey. Oh, my God, you guys. Guess what's back? It's a Bonza Bonanza. Bonza Bonanza. Bonza's new brown rice pasta is better than any gluten-free pasta on the market. Finally, a gluten-free pasta that tastes just like the real thing. Oh, my God, it's so good. Oh, my God. No more mushy gluten-free pasta. No, not with Bonza, because it holds up beautifully as leftovers, reheated, or if you need to meal prep. And what's so cool, what's so stinking cool is that it is made in many ways in my home country of Italy, with just two ingredients, brown rice and chickpeas. And you can find it at major retailers like Whole Foods, Target, Thrive Market, and more. We love Thrive Market on this podcast.

• 15:20Benito Skinner?

  What's his name?

• 15:22Mary Beth Barone?

  Rupert Everett?

• 15:23Benito Skinner?

  Rupert Everett?

• 15:24Mary Beth Barone?

  George.

• 15:25Benito Skinner?

  George, my first understanding of like how a gay guy could go to a dinner table and take it over.

• 15:33Benito Skinner?

  History isn't done.

• 15:35Mary Beth Barone?

  History is not done.

• 15:36Benito Skinner?

  Maybe we should do a whole My Best Friend's Wedding episode.

• 15:39Mary Beth Barone?

  I think we could. There's a lot of interesting takeaways watching it in the modern day.

• 15:43Benito Skinner?

  But before I put on my makeup, I say a little prayer for you. It's what I do.

• 15:51Mary Beth Barone?

  It's what I do. Something we don't do is fact check. So we joke about this. Obviously, we have looked things up on the pod.

• 15:59Benito Skinner?

  We know some stuff.

• 16:00Mary Beth Barone?

  Or something. Some of it's just knowledge that we have. I mean, press is.

• 16:04Benito Skinner?

  Press, what do you want me to say?

• 16:05Mary Beth Barone?

  But we just like, sometimes it's like, if we don't pronounce something right, or we don't have like an exact date, you don't need to tell us. Like, we're just having fun. It's a conversation. You don't always have to stop a conversation in the middle to look something up. Except if it's showing me a picture of someone that you're telling me a story about.

• 16:22Benito Skinner?

  Oh, and if you don't do that, how am I supposed to even hear the fucking story?

• 16:26Mary Beth Barone?

  Please use your sense.

• 16:28Benito Skinner?

  Come on.

• 16:29Mary Beth Barone?

  Come on.

• 16:31Mary Beth Barone?

  So maybe you could talk a little bit about if I'm so fucking crazy, then leave.

• 16:35Benito Skinner?

  So if I'm so fucking crazy, this is one of my favorite eras.

• 16:40Mary Beth Barone?

  If you want the full story, go back and listen to the pranking episode.

• 16:44Benito Skinner?

  Yeah, which I think is our pilot.

• 16:45Mary Beth Barone?

  I think it was our pilot.

• 16:46Benito Skinner?

  It's the big pilot. They're calling it the big pilot.

• 16:49Mary Beth Barone?

  Pilot.

• 16:51Benito Skinner?

  The big pilot episode. So I started walking into rooms, two middle fingers up, but really small. Try to make your middle finger as small as possible. Make your toes go inward and say, if I'm so fucking crazy, then leave. And it's so powerful.

• 17:09Mary Beth Barone?

  I know the straight guys listening have heard that a time or two.

• 17:11Benito Skinner?

  Oh, they're going, that's where she got that from.

• 17:14Mary Beth Barone?

  That's where she got it.

• 17:15Benito Skinner?

  I'm gonna kill this dude. I'm gonna kill this guy.

• 17:19Mary Beth Barone?

  Carrie!

• 17:20Benito Skinner?

  Carrie, you broke my heart! Aiden, and all the straight guys know, Aiden.

• 17:26Mary Beth Barone?

  Aiden.

• 17:27Benito Skinner?

  Coming just like that. Carrie, you broke my heart, Carrie. You broke my heart!

• 17:36Mary Beth Barone?

  It's one of my new favorites, I have to say.

• 17:38Benito Skinner?

  He just screamed at her in the middle of a New York street.

• 17:43Mary Beth Barone?

  Oh my God, I know when you watch that. Sorry, I'm trying not, what?

• 17:48Benito Skinner?

  Carrie looked at him and said, "Love you, Ken."

• 17:50Mary Beth Barone?

  I love you, Ken. Get up here, I love you, Ken. Daisy.

• 17:55Benito Skinner?

  Daisy, Daisy Mae Buchanan. So coyotes are overrunning LA. Mary Beth's been visiting quite a bit, she's living in my house. And she said, "Jesus Christ, there are so many coyotes." And I said, "Well, did you meet my coyote? Because I have one and her name's Daisy."

• 18:11Mary Beth Barone?

  Her name is Daisy.

• 18:12Benito Skinner?

  I love the thought of a wild coyote just coming into my house, living with me. She's not really mine because she belongs to the world.

• 18:19Mary Beth Barone?

  Mother Earth.

• 18:20Benito Skinner?

  Mother Earth. And just watching Gossip Girl with her on the couch and her being a little cutie pie. They are ultimately really cute, but don't go up to them.

• 18:28Mary Beth Barone?

  No.

• 18:28Benito Skinner?

  I think that's, you know.

• 18:29Mary Beth Barone?

  Did you know that all the swans, all the swans in the UK are technically owned by the Queen? So Edward says that that's the same with me, but about Carmex.

• 18:39Benito Skinner?

  Oh, and that's the same with me, but coyote.

• 18:41Mary Beth Barone?

  But coyotes, all the Carmexes in the US technically belong to me.

• 18:45Benito Skinner?

  And I know that other people say coyote, but I'm from Idaho. So for some reason, I just, I see that word and I think coyote. So my coyote, Daisy.

• 18:53Mary Beth Barone?

  And then we are animal lovers and we believe in children's rights on this podcast. But on the note of animals, I am pretty enamored with the idea that there are anywhere between 27 billion and 33 billion chickens alive at any given time. So I rode for chickens one week and the chicken, you'll see now that the merch has come out, we're making chickens fashion, kid.

• 19:16Benito Skinner?

  Chickens are sexy.

• 19:18Mary Beth Barone?

  Chicken can be fashion.

• 19:19Benito Skinner?

  Oh shit, that chicken's so sexy, baby. Chickens are, they've been the doll, they are the doll, deal with it.

• 19:27Mary Beth Barone?

  We're kind of relying on them and I love that for us.

• 19:30Benito Skinner?

  Can I say something to you?

• 19:31Mary Beth Barone?

  Please.

• 19:31Benito Skinner?

  Asian chicken salad.

• 19:32Mary Beth Barone?

  Asian chicken salad. And thank you for saying that. Can I say something else to you? How are we feeling today? I guess there's only two options, so amigo or no amigo.

• 19:43Benito Skinner?

  I'm feeling so amigo. So, oh God, it's like, so amigo, it's a song by Metro Station. What's that song called? Shake It? Which is just, I mean, God, it's a hit. God, it's a banger.

• 19:58Mary Beth Barone?

  Talk about an Earworm.

• 19:59Benito Skinner?

  I will say on that note of greatest songs of all time, Clarity by Zedd.

• 20:05Mary Beth Barone?

  Oh.

• 20:06Benito Skinner?

  We can't even say anything else about it. Just Clarity by Zedd.

• 20:08Mary Beth Barone?

  It speaks for itself.

• 20:09Benito Skinner?

  But we were on, a lot of these came from tour because we're just like going absolutely insane in hotel rooms and in green rooms. So we were singing it and all of a sudden I just, instead of knowing the words, I just said, I'm feeling so amigo. And then it went into, I'm feeling no amigo. And then I'm feeling, I'm feeling broke amigo.

• 20:29Mary Beth Barone?

  It really stuck.

• 20:31Benito Skinner?

  Yeah, it's, it's.

• 20:32Mary Beth Barone?

  I'm thrilled with it, to be honest.

• 20:33Benito Skinner?

  I've seen it on handmade merch, custom merch.

• 20:36Mary Beth Barone?

  A lot of handmade merch, which I love.

• 20:38Benito Skinner?

  Yeah, it's exciting to know that the good word is spread.

• 20:40Mary Beth Barone?

  It's spread. I think we could talk about quickly fabulous and stinky.

• 20:46Benito Skinner?

  So fabulous. Fabulous wasn't enough.

• 20:50Mary Beth Barone?

  We had to add a little something extra. This came about in the light denim episode. You had been trying on light jeans while you were closeted.

• 20:59Benito Skinner?

  And I said, yeah, that's what I said is when I put on the jeans and they fit perfectly.

• 21:03Mary Beth Barone?

  Fabulous.

• 21:03Benito Skinner?

  These are fabulous. These are fabulous. I'll take them. Me at APC, I need the petite standards. These are fabulous. I'll take them.

• 21:14Mary Beth Barone?

  I'll take them. Thanks. Could you bring that up for me? And then stinky is more of just like, it's a term of endearment.

• 21:21Benito Skinner?

  Stinky. I like making people say stinky and seeing how much they can keep it in the back of their throat as they say it.

• 21:28Mary Beth Barone?

  Enunciate the words.

• 21:30Benito Skinner?

  But not in this case.

• 21:31Mary Beth Barone?

  Not in this case.

• 21:32Benito Skinner?

  This is the one time we don't want you to enunciate the words.

• 21:38Mary Beth Barone?

  We have four more terms to go through and I want to say these are four of our most explosive. I think you need to talk about where Sebastian was born, where he came from and what he likes to do.

• 21:50Benito Skinner?

  Or as you call him, Seb.

• 21:52Mary Beth Barone?

  Seb.

• 21:53Benito Skinner?

  So I was doing our friend Emily's makeup one day and for some reason I just looked at her and I said, I want to show you something, something unbelievable. And.

• 22:06Mary Beth Barone?

  You FaceTimed. Right away.

• 22:07Benito Skinner?

  I couldn't believe what I had said as I said it. I went, oh my God, I want to show you something. Something unbelievable. It's just a guy you meet in a European city who you shouldn't trust.

• 22:21Mary Beth Barone?

  You should not trust.

• 22:22Benito Skinner?

  And he's wearing Armani Exchange. It just, it hits you like a ton of bricks. The second I said it, I was like, this is for the kids. This is for my kids, the baronies. So new era alert, the era's tour. It's interesting that this pod happened during the era's tour because it's like, era's is such, it's so this.

• 22:41Mary Beth Barone?

  If we did an era's tour, once this podcast is like our victory lap, when it's over, whenever that may be, in 2060, we would call it the era's tour and it would be 17 hours, just like Ken Burns's Vietnam War documentaries.

• 22:53Benito Skinner?

  Exactly. Just saying all this shit. So yeah, something unbelievable. It's as simple as that, but we think about what it would be that Sebastian wants to show whoever he's talking to.

• 23:05Mary Beth Barone?

  His next victim.

• 23:06Benito Skinner?

  His next victim. Something unbelievable.

• 23:10Mary Beth Barone?

  I would say that the London heckler wanted to show us something unbelievable. I don't know that she knew what that was.

• 23:17Benito Skinner?

  And she didn't show us something unbelievable. She gave us folklore, though, for sure. See?

• 23:21Mary Beth Barone?

  She gave us evermore.

• 23:22Benito Skinner?

  For anyone who listened to part one, Taylor Swift, you've got to know her discography, cats.

• 23:30Mary Beth Barone?

  Oh yeah, was co-opted from us. That was an era and still is, but it's now a bit triggering to us and others.

• 23:37Benito Skinner?

  At live shows, in person, hearing, yeah, it's the London heckler. We were heckled at a London show and this Irish woman who was inebriated would not stop saying, oh, yeah. Can you do it? I love when you do it.

• 23:51Mary Beth Barone?

  Talk about enunciate the words.

• 23:54Benito Skinner?

  I will say, I loved, oh yeah, before this happened because oh yeah, it's supposed to be kind of the same as love you sweat and.

• 24:00Mary Beth Barone?

  Love you, cat.

• 24:01Benito Skinner?

  Love you, cat. It's like when something shitty happens, it's just like kind of a way to be self-deprecating and be like, oh, this terrible thing happened to me and they go, oh, yeah. Like, got a car wreck today. Insurance won't cover it. Like, that's kind of the vibe of, oh yeah. So it was never meant to be used against us.

• 24:20Mary Beth Barone?

  And we'll return to form on that. We just need, it's, it's a little too soon.

• 24:23Benito Skinner?

  We need time.

• 24:24Mary Beth Barone?

  We need time. Time heals all. Traditional family values is a very heady concept that was also introduced in the pilot. We're redefining it. And we're having so much fun. Making custom merch is traditional family values. All of you have been participating in that. Beaded bracelets.

• 24:39Benito Skinner?

  Beaded bracelets, are you kidding?

• 24:41Mary Beth Barone?

  Oh, just so nice.

• 24:42Benito Skinner?

  That's what all these terms are. It's traditional family values, community. How much is community building traditional family values? Parasocial relationships, traditional family values. But it's in the new sense.

• 24:54Mary Beth Barone?

  It is, because we're redefining it.

• 24:55Benito Skinner?

  No room for TERFs.

• 24:56Mary Beth Barone?

  No.

• 24:57Benito Skinner?

  TERF Hogwarts, uh-uh, you're getting no new students this year.

• 25:01Mary Beth Barone?

  Nope.

• 25:01Benito Skinner?

  You can send as many letters as you want. Fuck her.

• 25:03Mary Beth Barone?

  You fucker. We love traditional family values and we love when you tell us what traditional family values means to you.

• 25:10Benito Skinner?

  I will say about 90% of the time, you're right.

• 25:13Mary Beth Barone?

  Spot on.

• 25:13Benito Skinner?

  Spot on, kid. Sometimes I'm like, wait, what? Which I love.

• 25:17Mary Beth Barone?

  But that's okay.

• 25:18Benito Skinner?

  But maybe that's your own traditional family values. And I think having your own traditional family values is traditional family values.

• 25:25Mary Beth Barone?

  I want to make art and I want to make trouble.

• 25:28Benito Skinner?

  Is that what we're ending with?

• 25:29Mary Beth Barone?

  No, I have such a huge one that we're gonna end with it, you're gonna freak.

• 25:34Benito Skinner?

  I'm getting chills. So I would say if you're listening to the pod, I would really highly recommend Cruella, the origin story of one of the most iconic villains of all time.

• 25:43Mary Beth Barone?

  All time.

• 25:44Benito Skinner?

  Cruella de Vil, Miss de Vil, played by Emma Stone with a British accent. I just think this movie is canon and you need to watch it. And there's a scene where Cruella goes, "I want to make art and I want to make trouble." And I think about it every single day because it is us and it is what we're doing here on Ride.

• 26:04Mary Beth Barone?

  It is, and rewrite the rules. That's what I have to say, rewrite the rules.

• 26:09Benito Skinner?

  Rewrite the rules. Make an impact.

• 26:12Mary Beth Barone?

  Press is press, take control of the narrative. In ending this episode Encyclopedia of Ride Part Two, obviously we have to talk about the era that kind of started it all as far as like how far we could push our listeners to see the world as we see it, or at least to like, you know, put on the Ride colored lenses.

• 26:36Mary Beth Barone?

  I have four words for you. Dear Media Love Corn.

• 26:43Benito Skinner?

  This, you want to talk about Ride Heritage? Did we fully explain Ride Heritage?

• 26:48Mary Beth Barone?

  Yeah, so for those of you, I mean, it would be insane to start an Encyclopedia of Ride Part Two, but if you didn't listen to the first one, and we'll just say again, Ride Heritage is this concept that actually Edward came up with, which is where certain episodes and certain concepts are so embedded within the DNA of Ride that they become Ride Heritage. And it's like, we can't even believe there was a time before Dear Media Love Corn, or before the Chicken and Fellowship episode, or before French Manicures and Gambling episode. You know, it's like, all these things, we're just like so happy that they exist, and they are part of now the DNA.

• 27:23Benito Skinner?

  Buckass Bob's, and what was that one?

• 27:25Mary Beth Barone?

  Buckass Bob's, and are you gonna post about it?

• 27:28Benito Skinner?

  Are you gonna post about it? God, that's so Heritage.

• 27:31Mary Beth Barone?

  We have a lot of great ads.

• 27:32Benito Skinner?

  Worms. We didn't ride for worms, but just worms in general are now Ride Heritage.

• 27:36Mary Beth Barone?

  Galaxy Brain.

• 27:37Benito Skinner?

  So Dear Media Love Corn was from the Ferrero Rocher Moms Keeping Secrets episode, which I think in my, in my bones, that's Heritage.

• 27:48Mary Beth Barone?

  That's her, of course.

• 27:49Benito Skinner?

  That's the Heritage episode.

• 27:51Mary Beth Barone?

  When we say Ride Heritage, that's amazing.

• 27:53Benito Skinner?

  I tell people, if they haven't heard the pod, I go start with Ferrero Rocher Secretive Moms, and Pilot.

• 27:58Mary Beth Barone?

  The Pilot. The Pilot was huge.

• 28:00Benito Skinner?

  That was Pilot!

• 28:01Mary Beth Barone?

  Me too.

• 28:02Benito Skinner?

  God, pranking and traditional family values. God, we started with a bang, and we hooked you fuckers. So Dear Media Love Corn, picture this. Mary Beth and I, pre-launch of the podcast, we're, we're in limbo. We don't know what to do. We're doing a show at Just for Laughs in Vancouver. There is a Prada store right next to our hotel, so the trip was great.

• 28:23Mary Beth Barone?

  Me at the glass.

• 28:24Benito Skinner?

  On the way there, Mary Beth is eating one of her favorite snacks, which is Love Corn, Love, comma, Corn. And I look at her, and as she's Crunchalina, I say, Love Corn. Love, Simon.

• 28:39Mary Beth Barone?

  Love, Victor.

• 28:41Benito Skinner?

  So obviously there is the epic gay love story, Love Simon, and the spinoff series on Hulu for, I think it's now canceled, but it was like three seasons, Love Victor.

• 28:53Mary Beth Barone?

  We had fun with it. We made it our own. We added Love Corn to that body of work as if they were all brought to you by the same minds.

• 29:00Benito Skinner?

  Greg Brillante.

• 29:01Mary Beth Barone?

  Greg Brillante. And so Love Corn is a fabulous snack and they heard the pod and they've been so great to work with. They send us Love Corn to give out at the end of every show. We have these amazing foam Love Corn hats that we wear when we perform Soho House. So we were talking about Love Corn on the pod and then I looked at our mics because they have these little like mic covers on them and it says Dear Media and I just thought, what a beautiful way to write a letter. You start with Dear Media, you're writing a letter to media, you write what you have to write and then you sign it with Love Corn.

• 29:33Benito Skinner?

  That's what Abigail Adams, she signed her letters played by Laura Lenny. She started her letters. Dear Dear Media. Loveth. Loveth.

• 29:43Mary Beth Barone?

  Loveth Corn. Yours always.

• 29:46Benito Skinner?

  Yours always.

• 29:47Mary Beth Barone?

  Corn.

• 29:47Benito Skinner?

  Abigail Corn.

• 29:49Mary Beth Barone?

  So grab some Love Corn if you see it. They have a few different flavors.

• 29:53Benito Skinner?

  I'm sure there's a holiday flavor. Is there a peppermint?

• 29:56Mary Beth Barone?

  There's a chocolate. I'm dining at my hands on some of those.

• 29:58Benito Skinner?

  The chocolate is so fucking good.

• 30:01Mary Beth Barone?

  You would never think of those things together as being like something so delectable.

• 30:05Benito Skinner?

  Hey, sweet and salty. I'll take it.

• 30:09Mary Beth Barone?

  Give me two, Ken.

• 30:10Benito Skinner?

  Oh, God.

• 30:11Mary Beth Barone?

  Oh, God. I would have here it's been on Ride. To think that all of that has happened in the first year, I don't even know what we're going to come up with in 2024.

• 30:20Benito Skinner?

  This might be an absolutely impossible podcast to listen to by season two and that's what we want. It's for our, sorry, it's for our bronies. Put in the work, commit to something. Enunciate the fucking words.

• 30:32Mary Beth Barone?

  If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything. We're gonna hear.

• 30:37Benito Skinner?

  Mirror.

• 30:41Mary Beth Barone?

  Stop it all. Oh, you're right.

• 30:44Benito Skinner?

  Souls. In pain. Indeed. This one don't mean to be there. This one longs to get the gun. Do I help them? Yes, indeed.

• 30:55Mary Beth Barone?

  We're gonna call up DJ Earworm and have him do a mashup of all of Ride's top songs of the year. It's gonna be a lot of Zed, it's gonna be a lot of Taylor, a lot of Katie.

• 31:04Benito Skinner?

  For torture tactics.

• 31:07Mary Beth Barone?

  To use against our enemies.

• 31:09Benito Skinner?

  Exactly.

• 31:10Mary Beth Barone?

  For worst day of the year.

• 31:11Benito Skinner?

  For worst day of the year. Put these headphones on.

• 31:14Mary Beth Barone?

  Think you're gonna like it.

• 31:15Benito Skinner?

  And party on. Turn it up.

• 31:19Mary Beth Barone?

  It's your favorite song.

• 31:20Benito Skinner?

  Dance, dance, dance to the disco.

• 31:24Mary Beth Barone?
