  Fall never arrives all at once. First the air, then the light. And slowly, the things you love begin to find each other. A jacket meets a dress. A hoodie slips beneath a blazer. An old cap finds a new scarf. Because you don't simply step into the season. You create it, layer by layer. Until it finally feels like fall. Find fall your way at Ross.

• 0:54Brooke Averick?

  Sweet boy is sick today.

• 0:56Speaker 02

  Hi guys.

• 0:58Brooke Averick?

  I'm just like, I'm like, like my energy just got really low thinking about like you not feeling well.

• 1:03Speaker 02

  You can't.

• 1:04Brooke Averick?

  And dancing. And it's just like making me upset. And it's just like, I think just, I'm about to start crying. I'm serious because it's like a testament to how hard you've been working.

• 1:13Speaker 02

  Oh, Brooke.

• 1:14Brooke Averick?

  I'm serious and you're run down and it's making me upset.

• 1:16Speaker 02

  I don't want to touch it. Yeah, I was gonna hold your hand.

• 1:18Brooke Averick?

  It's just making me upset. Especially considering your hard work is not going as appreciated as I would prefer.

• 1:24Speaker 02

  Brooke.

• 1:25Brooke Averick?

  I'm serious.

• 1:27Speaker 02

  Love you.

• 1:28Brooke Averick?

  Love you. It's making me upset. And I don't like that you're not feeling well, my sweet boy.

• 1:34Speaker 02

  I feel like it only makes sense to get sick during this. Like how?

• 1:38Brooke Averick?

  How?

• 1:38Speaker 02

  I don't know how no one else is sick.

• 1:40Brooke Averick?

  What happens if you like are too sick to dance? Is that just not an option?

• 1:45Speaker 02

  I don't know.

• 1:47Speaker 02

  I don't know.

• 1:48Brooke Averick?

  Cause like I know like if, like you, you can like push through sickness a lot better than I can. So like if I like, if my throat hurt, like I would not be able to dance. So I wonder what would happen?

• 2:01Speaker 02

  I don't know. I think practice is worse than the, you can go out and dance, of course.

• 2:07Brooke Averick?

  Sure. No, like hours of practice. Just like, it's not gonna work for me.

• 2:10Speaker 02

  I know. Who knows? I hope it's not strap. It feels a lot like.

• 2:14Brooke Averick?

  Can I see your throat?

• 2:17Brooke Averick?

  Show me your throat. What was that Harry Styles, Sara Lee, SNL skit? Send me a picture of your open throat or something like that.

• 2:24Speaker 02

  What?

• 2:25Brooke Averick?

  Show me a picture. Show me your throat.

• 2:27Speaker 02

  Do you want to see it?

• 2:27Brooke Averick?

  Yeah. Cause you can see, you can tell if it's strap if you, if you have, if you have that, that specific. No, you don't have strap. It's just red.

• 2:37Speaker 02

  Okay. Good.

• 2:38Brooke Averick?

  You don't have that like cute little white stuff.

• 2:41Speaker 02

  Ew, it's white when you get strapped?

• 2:43Brooke Averick?

  When you strap? Yeah, it's like disgusting.

• 2:45Speaker 02

  What?

• 2:47Brooke Averick?

  Do you want to see a picture of a strap throat?

• 2:49Speaker 02

  I don't know.

• 2:50Brooke Averick?

  It's really gross.

• 2:51Speaker 02

  Cause I haven't, I haven't eaten. I don't want to see the strap throat.

• 2:55Brooke Averick?

  It's just like, not pussy, but like I don't know what that is.

• 2:58Speaker 02

  Like tonsil stones?

• 2:59Brooke Averick?

  No, not tonsil stones. But it's like.

• 3:02Speaker 02

  And it's white? Your throat is white?

• 3:03Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, I'm gonna show you on my phone.

• 3:06Speaker 02

  Oh, that's disgusting.

• 3:07Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, it's like, there's, yeah. It's like pretty damn gross.

• 3:10Speaker 02

  It looks like the Hailey Bieber smoothie from marijuana.

• 3:11Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, it's like really gross.

• 3:12Speaker 02

  Okay. Oh, that's, that's yucky.

• 3:15Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, it's yucky.

• 3:16Speaker 02

  Okay, well, thank God.

• 3:16Brooke Averick?

  I think you just have a sore throat and I think something's going around.

• 3:20Speaker 02

  Something is going around.

• 3:21Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 3:23Speaker 02

  Everybody's sick, but.

• 3:26Brooke Averick?

  You're so strong.

• 3:27Speaker 02

  It will be so great.

• 3:28Brooke Averick?

  Our leading man and we'll push through.

• 3:30Speaker 02

  I'm, it's kind of, you know, when you're sick and you're like, I'm gonna feel so good when I feel good.

• 3:35Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 3:36Speaker 02

  That's what I'm looking forward to.

• 3:37Brooke Averick?

  That's all, look forward to the other side.

• 3:39Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 3:39Brooke Averick?

  But we say that every time, like we'll be so excited, like if we have a stuffed nose, it's like, wow.

• 3:44Speaker 02

  Can you remind me to, to check my privilege next time I can?

• 3:47Brooke Averick?

  I'm gonna try.

• 3:48Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 3:48Brooke Averick?

  Cause you know, every time we go to stuffed nose, it's like, the next time I'm able to breathe, like I will never take that for granted. And like, we always do.

• 3:54Speaker 02

  Mine was like swallowing.

• 3:55Brooke Averick?

  Izzy, well, do you mind making a note in next week's doc to check our privilege?

• 3:58Speaker 02

  Like at the very top, be like nostril check and swallow check.

• 4:03Brooke Averick?

  And I don't like, it would be rude for me to check mine right now. Cause like it would be boasting.

• 4:08Speaker 02

  No, check it. No, you should.

• 4:09Brooke Averick?

  Cause you don't feel well, but like checking my privilege.

• 4:12Speaker 02

  Wow, that's awesome. No, I'm happy.

• 4:15Brooke Averick?

  I'm sorry.

• 4:16Speaker 02

  Happy for you.

• 4:18Brooke Averick?

  Um, how are you feeling after last night's dance?

• 4:23Speaker 02

  Good. I need to see off my phone, but good.

• 4:26Brooke Averick?

  I'm just like, obviously like I thought you did amazing and like, here's the thing, like I know that I have no dance experience and like can't really look at a dance through a technical lens. And like, I'm obviously very biased in your favor, but I'm also right.

• 4:45Brooke Averick?

  Three things can be true. And like, the judges are judging everybody based off of their ability to take their feedback and put it into action. And you do that every single week. And I, for whatever reason, they're not acknowledging that. And that's what's bothering me. Like you're improving and you're taking their feedback to heart. Like you went full eating man last night. And they're just like not giving you the same flowers that they're giving everybody else. And like, you're being super mature about it? I'm not.

• 5:19Speaker 02

  I, I hear you. I hear you. I was kind of bummed last night that it wasn't like more of like a, I kept me like,

• 5:30Speaker 02

  and then remember what you guys told me last week?

• 5:32Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, I was like, I did, I did exactly what you said. So it's just like annoying and like you're doing so well. And it's just like nothing. Like obviously it was so fun to be there last night and it is like, just like, it's, it's fun. But it just gets to a point where it's like.

• 5:47Speaker 02

  Did you have fun?

• 5:47Brooke Averick?

  Of course I had fun, but it's like, can, I wish, I almost wish the judges would have a little bit more fun when you're up there, you know?

• 5:55Speaker 02

  It is.

• 5:56Brooke Averick?

  Loosen up for, loosen up my buttons.

• 5:58Speaker 02

  Loosen up my buttons, babe. I, yeah, I, so, and this is the only thing I'll say about the, like everyone's like, don't be hard on yourself. I, it was so loud in the room. I could not hear Mariah.

• 6:15Brooke Averick?

  Cause everyone was cheering.

• 6:16Speaker 02

  After I did the hump, the ground, I could not hear Mariah. And I was supposed to get up and do the, the one technical part of the dance that I was actually like struggling with. While I was struggling with the whole thing. Is the part that they were like, you didn't get that. And I was like, oh, I know. I couldn't hear Mariah's beat.

• 6:37Brooke Averick?

  You should have said, let me stop you right there. Couldn't hear over the cheering. Let me stop you right there, Carrie Anne. It's actually because everyone was cheering so loud. I had lost my ability to process auditorily.

• 6:49Speaker 02

  I couldn't hear the beat.

• 6:51Brooke Averick?

  I couldn't, I could not hear the beat.

• 6:53Speaker 02

  The beat. And you know, I like the beat.

• 6:55Brooke Averick?

  So I'm just like, you know, I've never followed sports. I've never felt like this sort of passion. So like it's, it's a new feeling for me to like care so much about like my team.

• 7:09Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 7:10Brooke Averick?

  I like, so when my team is wrong, like I was, I've been pissed.

• 7:16Brooke Averick?

  So.

• 7:16Speaker 02

  When I got up and got my scores and I'm kind of like, oh, a six, that's a bummer. And then the first thing that I see on camera, Brooke?

• 7:25Brooke Averick?

  No, I did that when you got the seven.

• 7:28Speaker 02

  Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's.

• 7:29Brooke Averick?

  Cause it's like, okay, six, seven. Cause then I.

• 7:31Speaker 02

  It was like a full like Britney moment where she's like, it was like.

• 7:38Brooke Averick?

  Well, there's a reason they didn't show me until the seven. Cause I wouldn't clap. With the six. I'm sorry. Like I'm not fucking around. I'm not playing good sport right now. Like, and then when Bruno gave you a seven, I was like, okay. And then seven.

• 7:50Speaker 02

  My man, my man, my man, my man, my man.

• 7:52Brooke Averick?

  It's just like, and also like, I'm not, everyone like did really well last night, but like, Tyler got three sevens, right? That like you should be getting three sevens. He did well, you did better. Sorry. Like, that's not putting him down. Like you did, it's just like annoying. So. Anyway.

• 8:12Speaker 02

  Well, thank you.

• 8:13Brooke Averick?

  And Sierra should not have gone home. So.

• 8:16Speaker 02

  Yeah, that's for sure.

• 8:17Brooke Averick?

  It's a solve. Didn't the judges used to have a save? They used to have a save. I think they would have used it last week though.

• 8:26Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 8:27Brooke Averick?

  With, with Taylor. So.

• 8:28Speaker 02

  It doesn't make sense.

• 8:30Speaker 02

  The elimination part of the competition show does, is.

• 8:33Brooke Averick?

  It makes no sense.

• 8:34Speaker 02

  Does not make sense. You get to that part and it's such a rude awakening every week. So I'm like, oh, I forgot we're competing against each other.

• 8:40Brooke Averick?

  I know, I know.

• 8:42Speaker 02

  Truly, I look at everybody and I'm like, who could possibly go home? It's, it like, it like,

• 8:50Speaker 02

  it like makes a hole, you know? Like it makes a TV show.

• 8:54Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 8:55Speaker 02

  Anyways, I had a lot of fun.

• 8:57Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 8:58Speaker 02

  That was my favorite dance we've done.

• 9:03Speaker 02

  That was unrelated to my strap.

• 9:06Brooke Averick?

  Like, I'm getting, like, I was freaking out last night because everyone's performance was, like, super emotional.

• 9:15Brooke Averick?

  You know?

• 9:16Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 9:16Brooke Averick?

  And then I was, like, getting nervous. I was like, okay, well, my friend's humping the ground.

• 9:20Speaker 02

  No, I was feeling that as well.

• 9:22Brooke Averick?

  So, and I knew you were gonna be feeling that as well. So, it's like, let's not give him the time. Or, you know what? Let's not give me the time either to start to get that level, to work that level of stress and anxiety.

• 9:33Speaker 02

  I'm going, mm, okay.

• 9:36Brooke Averick?

  Yep.

• 9:37Speaker 02

  Okay, everyone's tearing up.

• 9:40Brooke Averick?

  Everyone's tearing up more.

• 9:40Speaker 02

  Everyone seemed to have an uphill battle this week.

• 9:43Brooke Averick?

  Everyone's doing an emotional arc this week, and, you know?

• 9:46Speaker 02

  Yeah. I mean, I was also having an arc this week. Something you don't see in the package that rolls before my thing is that I didn't have the dance until a day before the show. I told Riley, right when we started learning, I go, oh, my God, well, it was so nice to get to know you. I will be heading home. I could not get this dance. It was a, rumba is the hardest dance. Dylan texted me and was like, I don't, are you sure you wanna do that? And I was like, baby, it's done. I don't, Riley, choreographed everything, you know? So, I was like, I can't do it. And then, this was, like, the week where Riley kinda cracked the whip and was like, you have to learn it. This was also the week when

• 10:31Speaker 02

  I was like, oh, if I don't learn it, like, I just do whatever I know on, like, the day of the dance, I guess.

• 10:37Brooke Averick?

  Well, you did it. You did it. I thought you did amazing. You took all of the judges' feedback and internalized it and put it on the dance floor and glad that Bruno saw that.

• 10:51Speaker 02

  Yeah. Yeah, I also wanna say, like,

• 10:53Brooke Averick?

  I love Bruno.

• 10:54Speaker 02

  I love Bruno, too.

• 10:56Brooke Averick?

  He's really, like, that is actually my favorite part of being in the ballroom is getting to watch him.

• 11:01Speaker 02

  Such a spirited individual.

• 11:03Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, he's a spirited individual.

• 11:05Speaker 02

  It is funny how they run them out towards the end. They, like, run them out of...

• 11:11Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 11:13Speaker 02

  Bruno's gonna get up and get over to the judges.

• 11:16Brooke Averick?

  Yeah. Checks out.

• 11:19Speaker 02

  So, I had Spanx on yesterday.

• 11:23Speaker 02

  And I walk out in my Spanx, cuz I had a low-cut shirt. And then I was like, hang on, all of the guys are naked.

• 11:34Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 11:35Speaker 02

  Everyone doing the rumba is shirt almost completely off. There's one button. I can't go out there with my Spanx on. We gotta cut this into a lower V. It was a Spanx tank top. So...

• 11:46Brooke Averick?

  Wasn't this last week, too, that you cut the lower V in the Spanx?

• 11:50Speaker 02

  That was, that was for sweat. The lower V this week was for nipples. Because my nipples were genuinely, like, becoming a distraction for the screen, like, when we did the camera blocking. The shadowing under my nipple was the size of a Toyota Corolla. And it was distra, it literally looked like Twin Peaks. And, so, we were like, we gotta do something. So, and then, when I walk out and I see Harry Shum and I see Ezra, just looking as they do.

• 12:28Brooke Averick?

  Ezra looked like a Disney prince.

• 12:31Speaker 02

  Just my beautiful boy.

• 12:33Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 12:35Speaker 02

  I go, we have to, unfortunately, like, do something. And so, they start to cut my V. And I'm like, no. I step away. I ripped the Spanx off. I ripped them off.

• 12:44Brooke Averick?

  Get nipple pasties.

• 12:47Speaker 02

  You'd be shocked at how much of a backward step that nipple pasties are for me.

• 12:51Brooke Averick?

  What do you mean?

• 12:52Speaker 02

  I have a unique body. There's no way else to say it.

• 12:56Brooke Averick?

  But what would the nipple pasties?

• 12:58Speaker 02

  Draw somehow more attention to my breasts.

• 13:01Brooke Averick?

  No, not the cake ones.

• 13:02Speaker 02

  Cakes?

• 13:03Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, I'll order you cakes.

• 13:07Speaker 02

  I blocked someone. I blocked, I blocked someone this morning that said, you need cakes. I thought they were talking about my butt. I gotta unblock the young woman.

• 13:15Brooke Averick?

  Oh, yeah.

• 13:16Speaker 02

  Okay. Cakes, body, nipple covers. Oh, I'll explore these.

• 13:20Brooke Averick?

  They just, like, they go, they go wider.

• 13:25Speaker 02

  They go wider. Now, that looks like something that you put over your...

• 13:28Brooke Averick?

  I didn't know the pair, the pair one. They just explore different shapes, so you can try a few different options. Like, one is really big, like, so it'll, like,

• 13:37Speaker 02

  Take the whole breast?

• 13:38Brooke Averick?

  Cover the whole breast. It depends what you're looking for. So, we could do a few, try a few different options.

• 13:43Speaker 02

  I would be open to trying those and seeing how they work.

• 13:46Brooke Averick?

  Let's try.

• 13:47Speaker 02

  Oh, they look good on that young woman.

• 13:49Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 13:49Speaker 02

  Okay, yeah, I will.

• 13:50Brooke Averick?

  Let's try some cakes.

• 13:51Speaker 02

  I wouldn't mind. Wow. Okay, some cakes.

• 13:59Speaker 02

  Yeah, so, I ripped the Spanx off. I feel like I had more to say about that, but I'm having trouble remembering last night. Let me check my notes. Lynn, I have a funny story to tell you.

• 14:17Brooke Averick?

  Is it unrelated to the Spanx?

• 14:18Speaker 02

  Yes.

• 14:19Brooke Averick?

  Closing that chapter?

• 14:20Speaker 02

  We can close the Spanx chapter.

• 14:22Brooke Averick?

  Okay.

• 14:24Speaker 02

  I mean, the only thing, the wardrobe, I was having trouble with last night because I wasn't really doing the, like, body roll on the ground in my full costume. So, it ripped during the show. And I was really scared. It was my pants that ripped. I felt the rip. I heard the rip. I couldn't hear Mariah. I could hear the rip. And I couldn't tell if it was my shirt or my pants on my ass. And the reason I was scared about it being my ass, I'm not, anyone can see my ass if you want to.

• 15:01Brooke Averick?

  Just ask.

• 15:02Speaker 02

  Just ask. Last night, the underwear I received for my costume was one size too small, so it had gone into my body.

• 15:15Brooke Averick?

  You've been wearing underwear during performance nights?

• 15:17Speaker 02

  Have to, yeah.

• 15:18Brooke Averick?

  That's nice, yeah.

• 15:18Speaker 02

  Have to. And I was so, I'm doing the body roll and I go, if my tuckus is out and I'm wearing genuinely a thong, like, we have taken the dance too far. We crossed the threshold of sexy? No. And I was just thinking, like, is Bruno seeing my cheeks?

• 15:40Brooke Averick?

  Right.

• 15:42Speaker 02

  Like, my ass was eating this underwear. Whole.

• 15:45Brooke Averick?

  Oh, I wish I had seen.

• 15:47Speaker 02

  Well, it was my shirt.

• 15:50Brooke Averick?

  Do you, are you allowed to say what you're doing next week?

• 15:52Speaker 02

  We're doing the Samba.

• 15:57Brooke Averick?

  Are you allowed to say what song?

• 15:58Speaker 02

  To Hip Don't Lie by Shakira.

• 16:00Brooke Averick?

  Is that sexy? Surely?

• 16:03Speaker 02

  The only, the thing that I like about the Samba is what I'm learning. So, when they talked about last night, the rumba, I'm gonna show you. I'm gonna stand up.

• 16:10Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, would you mind?

• 16:10Speaker 02

  We might have to turn on, yeah.

• 16:11Brooke Averick?

  Let me know if you need another body.

• 16:13Speaker 02

  This is my understanding. What?

• 16:15Brooke Averick?

  I said, let me know if you need another body. I'm being serious.

• 16:21Speaker 02

  I'm double-checking. I'm just gonna show you the hips right now.

• 16:23Brooke Averick?

I've officially reached the point where I care just as much about what I'm wearing around my house as I do about what I'm wearing out of it. I used to sleep in whatever random oversized t-shirt was close to me, but having an actual matching pajama set makes me feel so much more put together. Skims has completely converted me. Their sleep and lounge pieces are so soft and comfortable, but they still feel cute, which is exactly what I want.

• 19:22Speaker 02

  Ayy.

• 19:23Brooke Averick?

  I also love having a matching set because it makes getting ready for bed feel a little bit more intentional. And then, in the morning, I can make coffee, hang around the house, or get some stuff done without immediately feeling like I needed to change. It's basically the comfort of sleeping in an old t-shirt, but you look significantly more put together. Shop my favorite loungewear pajamas at skims.com. After you place your order, be sure to let them know we sent you. Select Podcast in the survey and be sure to select our show in the drop-down menu that follows.

• 19:53Speaker 02

  The comments I got last night were that I, you know Ezra did a rumba and I'll just show you. I know, I'm not comparing myself to Ezra by any means. I like, the guy blows my mind.

• 20:03Brooke Averick?

  Not do the same dance as Ezra in the same week.

• 20:06Speaker 02

  Would love that.

• 20:08Speaker 02

  Would love not to.

• 20:08Brooke Averick?

  How do we, how do we find that?

• 20:10Speaker 02

  The same costume, literally genuinely like, this is how I felt when Ezra walked out. Same costume, Ezra, um, Val.

• 20:20Brooke Averick?

  Same costume.

• 20:21Speaker 02

  Pasha, I mean, it's the same, the dancers get the same, similar costume, slicked back hair, deep button. It felt like, I'm Janet and I'm right.

• 20:32Brooke Averick?

  You need to make that TikTok and I'm Doonies.

• 20:37Speaker 02

  I'm right. It literally, when he walked out, I was like, you're fucking kidding.

• 20:45Brooke Averick?

  That's really good. Why didn't you make that?

• 20:47Speaker 02

  I, I thought about it when I got home and I was like, what? Like, why would you do this? It's the same reason I don't stand next to Tyler Cameron in photos, you know, like,

• 20:59Speaker 02

  give me a break. I need a little apple box to stand on.

• 21:03Brooke Averick?

  That's good.

• 21:03Speaker 02

  It's just like, okay, so.

• 21:05Brooke Averick?

  Okay, show us the samba.

• 21:07Speaker 02

  The samba, well, the rumba, I'll show you first. So this is, I'm, I'm, I'm gonna, can I talk outside the mic? Okay. I'll go, I guess, here.

• 21:17Speaker 02

  So ideally, in the rumba, I would have gone.

• 21:22Brooke Averick?

  Bring it around town?

• 21:23Speaker 02

  Yeah, but not bend my knee. So it's here, here. And I had my, I was supposed to have my hand here and go, ooh, ooh. See, I bend my knee.

• 21:32Brooke Averick?

  Is your fly open?

• 21:34Speaker 02

  Wide.

• 21:36Speaker 02

  Wide, yes.

• 21:38Brooke Averick?

  Appreciate it.

• 21:43Speaker 02

  I'm not wearing, like, my penis is just out. Could you see it?

• 21:48Brooke Averick?

  No, you couldn't.

• 21:49Speaker 02

  I was like, oh, there's a breeze in here today. Okay, so.

• 21:57Brooke Averick?

  You're amazing. I think you're an amazing person.

• 22:02Speaker 02

  And you're like, hello?

• 22:08Brooke Averick?

  Well, I didn't want to like, I was worried it wasn't open and I was just gonna like draw attention.

• 22:13Speaker 02

  No, it's impossible not to.

• 22:14Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 22:16Speaker 02

  Okay, so rumba would be here with the hips and Ezra, you saw Ezra, it was like one of these where like, and they said I was too safe with my arm here.

• 22:28Speaker 02

  Ezra did the, the, the rumba arm, which is good to do. The samba, so see this, this range of motion, the samba, you can bend your knees.

• 22:37Brooke Averick?

  That's nice. Oh, you're more, you're, you own that movement. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 22:43Speaker 02

  So I.

• 22:43Brooke Averick?

  I love that. You're good at that. I can tell.

• 22:47Speaker 02

  So.

• 22:48Brooke Averick?

  That's good.

• 22:48Speaker 02

  That will be, that will be fun. And my, my costume actually is very fun.

• 22:52Brooke Averick?

  So is the samba like slower? More sensual? Are we back to sensual?

• 22:57Speaker 02

  No, that I don't know.

• 23:00Brooke Averick?

  Cool.

• 23:00Speaker 02

  That I don't know. Um, but. Anyways, that was fun. I had a good time last night.

• 23:07Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, me too. I had a great time. I had a great time.

• 23:11Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 23:12Brooke Averick?

  Of course. It's just, you know, when you get really into it, it's like, it's impossible not to.

• 23:17Speaker 02

  Hundred percent.

• 23:19Brooke Averick?

  Be passionate.

• 23:19Speaker 02

  Yeah, I, again, I'm just saying one more time, I cannot believe

• 23:25Speaker 02

  the feedback is not bothering me at all.

• 23:29Brooke Averick?

  No, you're being so mature.

• 23:31Speaker 02

  It's, it's.

• 23:31Brooke Averick?

  Even like after, like when I saw you after the show briefly, just like, not a care in the world. I was like ready to march the, the state, the judges.

• 23:40Speaker 02

  Truly, it's because Guillermo was next to me and I, just like he calms me down so much.

• 23:44Brooke Averick?

  I, I mean, I love the guy, really. He's a genuinely good person.

• 23:48Speaker 02

  You know, when parents are like, you should not die before your children?

• 23:51Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 23:52Speaker 02

  That's like, I, I need to go home before, before Guillermo.

• 23:57Brooke Averick?

  I have, I have something horrible to tell you.

• 24:01Speaker 02

  I just don't imagine a world where, um, he, I'm not.

• 24:04Brooke Averick?

  Maybe he'll come visit?

• 24:05Speaker 02

  I'm here and he's not in it.

• 24:09Brooke Averick?

  Maybe he'll come visit, but like, I do think he could have like another week.

• 24:14Speaker 02

  One hundred percent.

• 24:15Brooke Averick?

  Or two more weeks.

• 24:16Speaker 02

  And you have, we have to talk about Whitney choreographing like such creative.

• 24:21Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 24:22Speaker 02

  Choreography for, for him to really shine. It's incredible, like her brand to, it's performance art, is it not? That was, it's just like such a fun watch. And you know, there's gonna be like this thing. It's like, that's Whitney's brand.

• 24:37Brooke Averick?

  Can I say something?

• 24:38Speaker 02

  She, it's just like an incredible day.

• 24:40Brooke Averick?

  She has those belly limitations. Can I say something?

• 24:43Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 24:45Brooke Averick?

  Imagine like getting up on a stage on national TV and giving it your all?

• 24:54Brooke Averick?

  And then having one of the judges earnestly say, what was that?

• 25:00Brooke Averick?

  That's what, that's actually what Carrie Anne had said to Guillermo.

• 25:06Speaker 02

  Oh, I was already pulled for my dance when that was.

• 25:12Brooke Averick?

  What was that?

• 25:12Speaker 02

  Taking part, taking place.

• 25:14Brooke Averick?

  That was, it was the, I think, I got a few DMs. It was like, I like, maybe I'm just like being dramatic, but I think I heard you start the booze. Pretty sure I did.

• 25:26Brooke Averick?

  That's a crazy thing to say. I'm sorry. But I'm not sorry. It's, it was reminiscent of such a shame. Anyway, sorry. Feel bad. But I don't.

• 25:38Speaker 02

  This is what, this is what the show's about though. They, they create fans of the show and you watching the show and enjoying that piece of it, that performance, that's half it and the other half is, is them getting technical with the dances.

• 25:54Brooke Averick?

  Anyway.

• 25:55Speaker 02

  I want to show you my spray tan.

• 25:57Brooke Averick?

  Okay.

• 25:58Speaker 02

  So Ezra got me to get a spray tan the other night. I had left.

• 26:02Brooke Averick?

  Where'd you go? Sugar to bronze?

• 26:03Speaker 02

  We got it in the studio. There's an in-house.

• 26:05Brooke Averick?

  There's an in-house.

• 26:06Speaker 02

  Yep. I did full body. Ezra randomly only did it the top half. He's, oh, this is like crazy. He's hairy.

• 26:16Speaker 02

  Um, I'm not. So like I had to do my whole body. I wonder if it's still.

• 26:25Speaker 02

  My pants are.

• 26:28Brooke Averick?

  Oh, yeah.

• 26:29Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah.

• 26:29Brooke Averick?

  I, I want to do, I want to get one. That looks really good. Your legs. Look at that muscle. Oh my God, they're like, there's like two coming down. Look at that. No, that's like, that's muscle, Connor. That wasn't there before.

• 26:49Speaker 02

  Really?

• 26:49Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 26:53Brooke Averick?

  Cause of your muscly thigh, your pants just got stuck. Good job.

• 26:57Speaker 02

  Thanks.

• 27:00Speaker 02

  I also, just the last thing I'll say about the dance, this is like a good cutoff too. Watching like Amber do that insane move and then being like, okay, well, like what was I, what's a young man like me to do except hump the floor in this moment?

• 27:14Brooke Averick?

  But like also, and another thing that like is not being taken into account when your reviews are scored. Amber has experienced like moving her body in that, in that sort of way.

• 27:25Speaker 02

  They're curving this.

• 27:26Brooke Averick?

  They are curving. They're, they're, they're turtly curving.

• 27:30Speaker 02

  They're turtly curving.

• 27:30Brooke Averick?

  But like, I just really feel like it's just not acknowledged that you have no, no experience.

• 27:36Speaker 02

  You know, it's funny, if they kept, if they harped on that, I'd get my feelings hurt. You have no experience. Okay, well, I've been.

• 27:42Brooke Averick?

  It's just like.

• 27:43Speaker 02

  I've been to weddings.

• 27:44Brooke Averick?

  I don't know. I'm just like, I'm pretty, I was pretty fired up after last night, as you can tell, so.

• 27:50Speaker 02

  I'm happy for another week. And it will be fun and you'll be there.

• 27:55Brooke Averick?

  Yup, yup.

• 27:56Speaker 02

  And you'll be sitting next to our special guests that will be in the audience next week. So fun.

• 28:03Speaker 02

  And Izzy. And my parents.

• 28:07Brooke Averick?

  Bob. I'm excited to be reunited.

• 28:09Speaker 02

  I do wonder.

• 28:10Brooke Averick?

  Well, I'll be, I'll have a good attitude.

• 28:13Speaker 02

  You always do.

• 28:13Brooke Averick?

  I always do.

• 28:15Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 28:19Speaker 02

  Sorry, I've been coughing so much.

• 28:22Speaker 02

  The other thing.

• 28:25Speaker 02

  As I hump the floor, I look up. Who do I see?

• 28:30Brooke Averick?

  Who?

• 28:31Speaker 02

  Abby Lee Miller?

• 28:32Brooke Averick?

  Oh yeah, Abby Lee Miller was sitting with us.

• 28:35Speaker 02

  She asked me for a picture after the show.

• 28:38Brooke Averick?

  Do you have it?

• 28:38Speaker 02

  It's on her phone.

• 28:39Brooke Averick?

  It's on her phone. Abby Lee, if you're listening, can you blast that out?

• 28:44Speaker 02

  She looks gorgeous.

• 28:45Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 28:46Speaker 02

  She was su-

• 28:46Brooke Averick?

  You know, I never like saw Dance Moms or anything like that.

• 28:50Speaker 02

  I imagine it's like a little bit...

• 28:54Speaker 02

  Maybe nerve wracking for the dancers to have someone of that.

• 28:59Brooke Averick?

  Is she like, I don't even know the lore, like, because from like my understanding was that like she was like mean, right? Yeah, okay. But like, we love her. Izzy just said, okay. So it's interesting.

• 29:14Speaker 02

  So?

• 29:15Brooke Averick?

  It's kind of like a-

• 29:16Speaker 02

  As a non-dancer that just watches TV? Like, we found it entertaining, but like-

• 29:21Brooke Averick?

  It's kind of like an icon situation, even though it's like-

• 29:23Speaker 02

  I think like-

• 29:24Brooke Averick?

  Tough.

• 29:24Speaker 02

  Matty Zebler? Like, has a vendetta, like a valid vendetta against Abby Lee. I like yearn for the day when I can like, I mean, me imagining when this is ever like hanging out with the judges, like they're not gonna talk to me, but like-

• 29:43Brooke Averick?

  Bruno. And you know what, Derek, like? I fuck with depending.

• 29:49Speaker 02

  Yeah. I like them all. I think it's a good balance that we have out there.

• 29:55Brooke Averick?

  I mean, I guess like every judging panel needs a Simon Cowell, but also like Simon was like very hateful.

• 30:01Speaker 02

  Simon should be in prison. Like, I'm serious.

• 30:03Brooke Averick?

  Simon was really not okay.

• 30:06Speaker 02

  No, that, well, Simon had, talk about internally, Simon was battling something. Did we talk about this?

• 30:13Brooke Averick?

  We, I think last week.

• 30:14Speaker 02

  Full blown, like every, every time he comes up, I'm like, yeah, Simon's a villain.

• 30:18Brooke Averick?

  No, I know. Everyone is like in response to like hating on Carrie Anne, everyone's like, well, would you have said this about Simon Cowell? Yes. They, absolutely. Anyway.

• 30:30Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 30:31Brooke Averick?

  Enough of that.

• 30:33Speaker 02

  Enough. Thank you guys for voting. Please vote next week. I would appreciate it.

• 30:37Brooke Averick?

  Voting matters, as you can see.

• 30:38Speaker 02

  Voting definitely matters.

• 30:41Speaker 02

  It's so fun to be up there at the end of every show at the bottom three.

• 30:45Brooke Averick?

  You weren't in the bottom three last night.

• 30:47Speaker 02

  Almost.

• 30:50Speaker 02

  I'm just ready every week to be like up there at the bottom three and just like, alright. That wait in between and the one going home is-

• 30:59Brooke Averick?

  Oh, it's like, it has to be longer in the ballroom than it is on TV. It's like two, two full minutes.

• 31:05Speaker 02

  It's definitely like-

• 31:06Brooke Averick?

  In the ballroom.

• 31:07Speaker 02

  At least 40 seconds.

• 31:08Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 31:10Speaker 02

  Anyways.

• 31:11Brooke Averick?

  I have your birthday present, finally.

• 31:13Speaker 02

  Do you?

• 31:14Brooke Averick?

  Yeah. But I think I'm gonna have to leave the room.

• 31:17Speaker 02

  Why?

• 31:18Brooke Averick?

  Because you know how like, after you dance, you're like, why did I do that?

• 31:22Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 31:23Brooke Averick?

  I'm feeling that way about what I've done.

• 31:25Speaker 02

  Really?

• 31:26Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 31:27Speaker 02

  Okay, whatever makes you comfortable.

• 31:29Brooke Averick?

  I don't know. I wrote you a song. I'm-

• 31:32Speaker 02

  Did you sing it? No, you didn't.

• 31:35Brooke Averick?

  Mm-hmm.

• 31:38Brooke Averick?

  Tried, tried to sing.

• 31:41Brooke Averick?

  I'm gonna try, Izzy says I should try to stay. Um, I'm, like, I, I've been having nightmares about this, Connor.

• 31:48Speaker 02

  You wrote me a song?

• 31:50Brooke Averick?

  I wrote you a song.

• 31:53Brooke Averick?

  They, Izzy made a lyric video, or the editors made a lyric video. I went into the studio.

• 32:01Speaker 02

  No, you didn't.

• 32:02Brooke Averick?

  I did. I'm feeling like sick, I'm like feeling actually sick. If I was being weird for the first 30 minutes of the podcast, it's because I'm like very nauseous.

• 32:08Speaker 02

  I thought you were being very nice.

• 32:09Brooke Averick?

  You what?

• 32:09Speaker 02

  I thought you were being very sweet and nice.

• 32:12Brooke Averick?

  I had a nightmare a few weeks ago that you walked out when, when we played this. Because you're like, I don't think this is funny.

• 32:19Speaker 02

  So it's a funny song?

• 32:20Brooke Averick?

  No, well, the first verse is like, I'm like ribbing at you a little bit.

• 32:26Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm.

• 32:26Brooke Averick?

  And then it gets really earnest.

• 32:28Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 32:29Brooke Averick?

  But like-

• 32:30Speaker 02

  Oh, sweet.

• 32:30Brooke Averick?

  You didn't make it past the first verse in my dream, and the podcast ended.

• 32:35Speaker 02

  Brooke, I can't believe this.

• 32:36Brooke Averick?

  I don't know what to do.

• 32:37Speaker 02

  You have a second book to write. What are you doing writing a song?

• 32:39Brooke Averick?

  Not, not writing the book. I don't know what to do with, I don't think I can be in here.

• 32:45Speaker 02

  Well, just, let's just play it, and then if you feel the need to get up.

• 32:51Brooke Averick?

  This is horrible.

• 32:55Brooke Averick?

  It's a country song.

• 32:56Speaker 02

  Stop!

• 32:58Brooke Averick?

  Oh, it's called Didn't Have To Go Far.

• 33:00Speaker 02

  It's hard, my-

• 33:01Brooke Averick?

  It's your, it's gonna be changed to your verse. There's a star in your verse. Yeah, look.

• 33:08Speaker 02

  Oh my god.

• 33:10Brooke Averick?

  Just a boy that never had a partner before.

• 33:19Brooke Averick?

  Tried some doubles ten, but needed so much more.

• 33:24Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 33:24Brooke Averick?

  So stupid.

• 33:25Speaker 02

  My god.

• 33:27Brooke Averick?

  Started every day wishing you were six feet tall. That's when you walked out, my dream.

• 33:35Brooke Averick?

  Kept your head up high, despite it all.

• 33:40Speaker 02

  How do you have so much in every single line?

• 33:44Brooke Averick?

  In your shorts, wired headphones, you took a pill.

• 33:52Brooke Averick?

  Wheels up, headed west, tattooed with the thrill.

• 33:57Speaker 02

  Wow!

• 33:58Brooke Averick?

  That was poetic.

• 34:01Brooke Averick?

  You made your way down the Sunset Strip. You caught my eye, the way you moved your hips.

• 34:08Speaker 02

  Oh my god.

• 34:10Brooke Averick?

  I rode on the town, chasing stars, just 25 beers from every bar, and I knew

• 34:20Brooke Averick?

  you were gonna go far. I agree. Auto-tuned to the gods. Always said that, always said that, always said that, always said that.

• 34:28Speaker 02

  Your tunes are tight on that.

• 34:30Brooke Averick?

  Sat our large asses in the Kelly Clarkson's. Oh!

• 34:38Brooke Averick?

  Asking Izzy questions while you hit your feet. That's my favorite part.

• 34:47Brooke Averick?

  Sorry we're so stupid, we just wanna know.

• 34:51Speaker 02

  Yes!

• 34:53Brooke Averick?

  Yes, literally, yes! Holy freaking air bomb, where does the time go?

• 35:00Speaker 02

  Fast.

• 35:02Speaker 02

  Oh, Brooke, this is long.

• 35:03Brooke Averick?

  It's a long song.

• 35:07Speaker 02

  Oh my gosh!

• 35:11Brooke Averick?

  You blew me away, more than Tristan's tears.

• 35:19Brooke Averick?

  You became the king of eddies, on the canals, soaking up the sun, clearing all the mold out.

• 35:28Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 35:28Brooke Averick?

  Out on the town, chasing the stars, just 25 beers from every bar. Yeah, it's a good part. Toast in the sand. Toast in the sand? Poop in your shoe. Larger-than-life ass, what's an unlikely heart drop to do? Conor Fibula would. Now you dance with the stars, no matter what clout you're chasing, we always know your heart.

• 35:53Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 35:55Brooke Averick?

  That's our cowboy in the ballroom every Tuesday night. Our eyes are on you. Out on the town, it's you that the star.

• 36:07Speaker 02

  Ooh!

• 36:08Brooke Averick?

  It was there in your purse, didn't have to go far.

• 36:15Speaker 02

  I got two to my tongue.

• 36:20Brooke Averick?

  That's a two to a whole.

• 36:23Speaker 02

  Oh, this is gonna make me genuinely-

• 36:28Speaker 02

  Be sweet. Be sweet. Be s-

• 36:31Brooke Averick?

  Ew.

• 36:32Speaker 02

  Ew.

• 36:34Brooke Averick?

  Aw. And I knew

• 36:40Brooke Averick?

  you were gonna go far.

• 36:44Speaker 02

  Brooke. That was so good. Love you. Hey guys, we wanna take a break to thank a sponsor of today's episode, Instant Hydration. Whether you're working out, spending time outdoors, or just sweating at your- Your desk, hydration is important.

• 37:02Brooke Averick?

  Over seventy-five percent of Americans are chronically hydrated and ninety percent don't get enough potassium, a key electrolyte responsible for energy, muscle function, and clear thinking. That's why so many people feel tired, foggy, crampy, or off, even when they're drinking tons of water. Instant Hydration is a premium electrolyte drink mix designed to support hydration, energy, recovery, focus, and overall performance without sugar or unnecessary additives. I personally love the strawberry lemon. It's so refreshing, especially when it's been so hot in LA.

• 37:36Speaker 02

  Brooke, that's also my favorite flavor. I have always been a sweater, but especially right now, I've been sweating a ton recently. And I always keep an Instant Hydration on me. They're easy, they're portable. I put them in my backpack at the bottom and they're nice to just find, you know? You always need a little hydration. This is an easy way to do it. It's a good little life hack. One of the biggest differentiators of Instant Hydration is that they use French gray sea salt. And it's naturally harvested and it's super rich in minerals. One of the most important ingredients in an electrolyte is the salt in a lot of other products. Talk about their sea salt and they use, they get, some even use table salt.

  Oh, that was so good.

• 41:06Brooke Averick?

  Thanks, thanks. Happy birthday. Sorry it's so late.

• 41:11Speaker 02

  That literally.

• 41:12Brooke Averick?

  That was like really tough to sit through.

• 41:15Speaker 02

  That felt like to me, I mean, that just made me like, that just made me like life at a glance for a second. Ooh, that was freaky. It was, it literally felt like.

• 41:25Brooke Averick?

  Like where does the time go?

• 41:26Speaker 02

  Like when we go back, like that was, I don't, that, that was genuinely a why your tooth brown type of thing. Every single line held weight.

• 41:36Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 41:37Speaker 02

  There was no filler.

• 41:37Brooke Averick?

  Thank you. I had fun with the songwriting process.

• 41:39Speaker 02

  That was fabulous.

• 41:41Brooke Averick?

  Thanks Connor.

• 41:41Speaker 02

  It, it was so good.

• 41:43Brooke Averick?

  Thanks.

• 41:43Speaker 02

  And I heard that no you hit at the end.

• 41:45Brooke Averick?

  And I knew you were gonna go far.

• 41:47Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 41:48Brooke Averick?

  My favorite part is.

• 41:49Speaker 02

  I needed really.

• 41:51Brooke Averick?

  Sorry, we're so stupid. We just want to know.

• 41:54Speaker 02

  Please look at the song that I was listening to when I pulled up.

• 41:57Brooke Averick?

  You're gonna go far. That was the inspiration by Noah Khan. That's really scary.

• 42:00Speaker 02

  This is, and I was at three minutes, thirty-three seconds.

• 42:03Brooke Averick?

  That's really bizarre.

• 42:04Speaker 02

  As I pulled up.

• 42:06Brooke Averick?

  Well, I was like, is this plagiarism?

• 42:09Speaker 02

  You're not Stella Lefty.

• 42:10Brooke Averick?

  It's inspiration.

• 42:11Speaker 02

  You're safe.

• 42:13Brooke Averick?

  March 8.

• 42:13Speaker 02

  Wow. Brooke, that was so amazing, truly.

• 42:16Brooke Averick?

  Thanks.

• 42:16Speaker 02

  That's gonna, that's like instant classic. That's going platinum in my house.

• 42:20Brooke Averick?

  That's sweet. We'll be on Spotify.

• 42:21Speaker 02

  It will?

• 42:22Brooke Averick?

  I guess.

• 42:22Speaker 02

  Yeah. Wow, that's awesome.

• 42:25Brooke Averick?

  You.

• 42:26Speaker 02

  Aw, Brooke, thank you.

• 42:27Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 42:28Speaker 02

  That was worth the wait.

• 42:29Brooke Averick?

  I'm glad.

• 42:31Speaker 02

  Really quick, back to dancing for just one brief second.

• 42:34Brooke Averick?

  I'm more comfortable there, yeah.

• 42:37Speaker 02

  I was gonna tell you, so I filmed that comedy special. Did I say I filmed it? Yeah, I guess it was like public. I filmed a comedy special.

• 42:46Speaker 02

  I'm just gonna say it right now. I don't know how much of a comedy special it is.

• 42:51Brooke Averick?

  What do you, like, it's not funny?

• 42:53Speaker 02

  It's, almost reads more like an Anthony Bourdain thing than a stand-up special. Like it's not an hour of stand-up. We're like out doing stuff, which I think I thrive more doing that and then mixing in some, like.

• 43:07Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 43:07Speaker 02

  I think I talk better than

• 43:11Speaker 02

  in situations more than like writing stand-up about the situations, but one of those, one of those situations I was in, in June, I went to a strip club.

• 43:23Brooke Averick?

  Wait, when you were filming in Fort Lauderdale?

• 43:25Speaker 02

  Mm-hmm.

• 43:26Brooke Averick?

  I didn't know you went to the strip club.

• 43:28Speaker 02

  Went to a strip club.

• 43:29Brooke Averick?

  In Fort Lauderdale.

• 43:30Speaker 02

  A male strip club.

• 43:31Brooke Averick?

  I didn't know you went to a male strip club.

• 43:33Speaker 02

  At noon.

• 43:34Brooke Averick?

  And I didn't know you went to a male strip club at noon?

• 43:36Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 43:37Brooke Averick?

  Can I ask who you went with?

• 43:38Speaker 02

  Yeah, I went with the team. Xavier, Maggie all came. Those young men taught me the ground body roll that I did last night on the dance floor.

• 43:49Brooke Averick?

  We owe it to them. Do you have the name of the establishment that you could shout out?

• 43:53Speaker 02

  La Bear.

• 43:55Brooke Averick?

  La Bear.

• 43:55Speaker 02

  And let me just double check that it was Fort Lauderdale. I think it was.

• 44:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, La Bear. Can you click on the men?

• 44:03Brooke Averick?

  Oh, I'm sorry. My mistake for thinking it was bear like the animal.

• 44:08Speaker 02

  No.

• 44:08Brooke Averick?

  Bear like.

• 44:09Speaker 02

  Bear like skin. So they're, they're really wonderful people.

• 44:17Speaker 02

  They taught me everything I know. And that's where this started. Obviously, in June, I did not know that I'd be doing this, but they had me up on the stage with them.

• 44:26Brooke Averick?

  I didn't know you got up on the stage. Is that filmed?

• 44:29Speaker 02

  Yep, it's in it. I was in a construction vest and tassled undies. So.

• 44:39Brooke Averick?

  When can we see this?

• 44:41Speaker 02

  It's being, this is.

• 44:43Brooke Averick?

  Was the construction vest open?

• 44:45Speaker 02

  Nope, it was closed. I looked very weird. And I had a hard hat on.

• 44:53Speaker 02

  And Maggie, they were like, now you'll do a lap dance on Maggie.

• 44:57Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 44:58Speaker 02

  So Maggie's on the chair and then me and Xavier are giving her a lap dance. So when the young men, they hang from the rafters. They're very strong, you know? And they hang from the rafters and they lap dance your face. So they almost like.

• 45:09Brooke Averick?

  Love, yeah.

• 45:10Speaker 02

  Yeah. So I'm like not.

• 45:12Brooke Averick?

  They're almost what?

• 45:14Speaker 02

  They're what?

• 45:15Brooke Averick?

  What?

• 45:16Speaker 02

  Well, what did you say?

• 45:17Brooke Averick?

  What did you say?

• 45:18Speaker 02

  I didn't get, I didn't, I didn't mean to say anything if I did say something.

• 45:26Speaker 02

  What did you think I said?

• 45:27Brooke Averick?

  What did you think I think you said?

• 45:28Speaker 02

  They're what?

• 45:29Brooke Averick?

  No.

• 45:30Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 45:32Brooke Averick?

  You've, you stopped mid-sentence.

• 45:35Speaker 02

  Sorry.

• 45:36Brooke Averick?

  All good.

• 45:36Speaker 02

  Well, they are built like differently than I am, especially upper body. So I was trying to hang from the rafters. And they were, they did that kind of body roll that I was like forward facing. I couldn't really get to the tube, the two rafters up top. So I was holding like, kind of instead of the Y axis, I was holding on the, on the X axis. And so I could only kind of like hump Maggie's ear.

• 46:03Brooke Averick?

  Mmm, cute.

• 46:04Speaker 02

  And that's on film.

• 46:08Speaker 02

  But they taught me that body roll on the ground. And if you watch the dance back, that's not the worm. Everyone was like, you did the worm. I said, I didn't do the worm. I said, I had my right foot planted on the ground, moving back. That was like stabilizing me to move backwards.

• 46:21Brooke Averick?

  It was like a moonwalk of sorts, but it was like a humping moonwalk.

• 46:25Speaker 02

  Yes, it was.

• 46:26Brooke Averick?

  Do you, is there a name for it?

• 46:28Speaker 02

  I know, the magic.

• 46:30Brooke Averick?

  The Magic Mike?

• 46:32Speaker 02

  Worm? The Magic Mike worm?

• 46:33Brooke Averick?

  Magic conch?

• 46:36Speaker 02

  The Magic Conch.

• 46:37Brooke Averick?

  Yeah. No, honey, that's a magic conch.

• 46:41Speaker 02

  Okay, this is like.

• 46:42Brooke Averick?

  Wait, did I ask when we can see?

• 46:45Speaker 02

  See what?

• 46:45Brooke Averick?

  The, your special?

• 46:47Speaker 02

  Well, it's being shopped around right now and someone has to like, a stream, someone has to buy it.

• 46:52Brooke Averick?

  Well, is there like a link that you could send to me?

• 46:55Speaker 02

  Yeah, I haven't watched it.

• 46:57Brooke Averick?

  Okay.

• 47:00Speaker 02

  You know, I can't watch, you know, I can't watch things I'm in.

• 47:04Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 47:04Brooke Averick?

  Okay.

• 47:07Brooke Averick?

  Did you see this picture of you grinding in middle school?

• 47:09Speaker 02

  What in the, how did you?

• 47:13Speaker 02

  Izzy, is that you?

• 47:17Speaker 02

  Oh, no. Sorry?

• 47:19Brooke Averick?

  Someone posted that.

• 47:21Speaker 02

  Where did they post that?

• 47:23Brooke Averick?

  On TikTok.

• 47:26Speaker 02

  Oh, my gosh. These are all my friends from high school. Ellen Hammond, Lila Love, Curtis Petty. Wow.

• 47:33Brooke Averick?

  You look adorable. I love all your jewels.

• 47:36Speaker 02

  These are all my friends. Aw, miss you guys.

• 47:39Brooke Averick?

  What were you? Was this someone's quinceañera?

• 47:41Speaker 02

  I think that's Madeline in front of me. Um, no, that is homecoming.

• 47:45Brooke Averick?

  Cute.

• 47:47Speaker 02

  So fun. Always had the shirt on underneath the button up dude in nipples.

• 47:53Brooke Averick?

  We've got to get you caked up.

• 47:55Speaker 02

  I need to get caked up and I need to apologize to the woman I blocked for saying you need cake. I thought you were talking about my butt.

• 48:01Brooke Averick?

  That's a... That's... You're blocking people for a lot, huh? For not a lot, for a little.

• 48:07Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 48:08Brooke Averick?

  You're block happy?

• 48:09Speaker 02

  Yeah, I commented back to someone last night.

• 48:11Brooke Averick?

  I saw? That's fine to do.

• 48:13Speaker 02

  Sorry, you're pushing me to my limits.

• 48:15Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, you're being pushed. You're being tested.

• 48:16Speaker 02

  I don't know if the network will love that I'm clapping back. I think we're supposed to ignore that. I'm like... I can't.

• 48:24Brooke Averick?

  No, and I would not be able to either, so...

• 48:28Speaker 02

  That just reminded me, I guess that was high school. Do you remember in high school where the fundraiser would be like for $5, you can throw a pie at the principal's face? They should have done like for 10, you could throw a book at your teacher.

• 48:42Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, I agree.

• 48:43Speaker 02

  The teacher you hate. Would you guys absolutely effing kill me if I got another coffee really quick?

• 48:49Brooke Averick?

  No.

• 48:50Speaker 02

  Can I make one really quick? And then maybe? I have one story to tell you.

• 48:54Brooke Averick?

  Okay.

• 48:57Speaker 02

  Okay, two things.

• 48:58Brooke Averick?

  I'm feeling like horrible about my song.

• 49:00Speaker 02

  No. Brooke, that was amazing. That was the highlight of the episode, by far. I'll be right back.

• 49:06Brooke Averick?

  I'm... It's like post, not clarity.

• 49:13Speaker 02

  Can you look up on Spotify? Yearning playlist?

• 49:18Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, I have one of those.

• 49:20Speaker 02

  No, but Spotify just made one.

• 49:25Brooke Averick?

  That coffee smells good.

• 49:27Speaker 02

  It's so good. It's Donut Shop.

• 49:30Brooke Averick?

  Yearning playlists. Yearning mix? Made just for me.

• 49:37Speaker 02

  You'll know.

• 49:37Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, this is perfect.

• 49:38Speaker 02

  No, you'll know. They made one.

• 49:40Brooke Averick?

  No, I know. Yearning mix.

• 49:42Speaker 02

  No, yearning playlist. It's called yearning playlist.

• 49:51Brooke Averick?

  What?

• 49:52Speaker 02

  Okay. Anyone?

• 49:54Brooke Averick?

  I'm getting yearning mix, romantic yearning mix, and late night yearning mix. What? What?

• 50:00Speaker 02

  We're the cover.

• 50:03Speaker 02

  Spotify just made the yearning...

• 50:07Speaker 02

  Yearning to Dance with Papa playlist.

• 50:09Brooke Averick?

  This is on Spotify, made by Spotify?

• 50:11Speaker 02

  A Spotify official playlist called Yearning and it's Riley and I on the flow.

• 50:17Brooke Averick?

  From last night? They move quick.

• 50:19Speaker 02

  They are amazing. Oh, my gosh.

• 50:24Speaker 02

  I know, they're so good. Wow. You guys go check out the yearning playlist on Spotify. That's so fun.

• 50:32Speaker 02

  Oh, that is hysterical.

• 50:35Brooke Averick?

  I wonder if they'll add, um...

• 50:39Brooke Averick?

  What's it called?

• 50:43Brooke Averick?

  Didn't have to go far, parentheses, there's a star in your purse, end parentheses.

• 50:48Speaker 02

  There's a star in your purse is a brilliant touch.

• 50:50Brooke Averick?

  Thanks. I like when songs do that.

• 50:54Speaker 02

  I like when movies say the name of the movie in the movie.

• 50:57Brooke Averick?

  Ooh, I like when that happens in books.

• 50:59Speaker 02

  Ooh. Uh, you know what I hate though?

• 51:02Brooke Averick?

  What?

• 51:04Speaker 02

  When they say the name of the movie.

• 51:06Brooke Averick?

  Don't strain your throat.

• 51:07Speaker 02

  Sorry. When they say the name of the movie and then it like cuts to black and it's like Saltburn.

• 51:12Brooke Averick?

  Yeah.

• 51:13Speaker 02

  Why was it called Saltburn?

• 51:14Brooke Averick?

  Did I tell you I watched it with my dad?

• 51:15Speaker 02

  Yeah, that's...

• 51:17Brooke Averick?

  I forgot.

• 51:19Brooke Averick?

  About what happened.

• 51:20Speaker 02

  It's like Brooke Snader being naked on the boat with her dad.

• 51:22Brooke Averick?

  No, it's not. Don't say that. Do not say that.

• 51:26Speaker 02

  They have a different...

• 51:27Brooke Averick?

  Why did they call it Saltburn?

• 51:28Speaker 02

  Why did they call it Saltburn?

• 51:30Speaker 03

  It was the name of the manor that they were all on.

• 51:35Brooke Averick?

  The banner?

• 51:36Speaker 03

  The house, manor.

• 51:37Brooke Averick?

  The manor. Exactly. It was the name of the manor.

• 51:40Speaker 02

  Saltburn Manor?

• 51:42Brooke Averick?

  Okay, but like, I kind of feel like, mm... No, I mean, that's a fine title.

• 51:50Speaker 02

  What?

• 51:51Brooke Averick?

  I was gonna say, like, maybe I feel like titles should be a little bit more involved.

• 51:56Brooke Averick?

  But I'm thinking about my possible title for book two and it's the least involved thing that's ever.

• 52:01Speaker 02

  I like when it's a thinker. I like when a title's a thinker.

• 52:05Brooke Averick?

  But Saltburn's not a thinker is what I'm saying. It's just the name of the manor.

• 52:08Speaker 02

  I was just thinking.

• 52:09Brooke Averick?

  Or you were thinking, like you were...

• 52:10Speaker 02

  Well, I obviously didn't pay attention to the name of the house because I was focusing on him licking come out of the bathtub drain.

• 52:17Speaker 02

  So they couldn't name it come out of the bathtub drain.

• 52:19Brooke Averick?

  I like... Do you remember like that feeling when you first saw that in the theater?

• 52:25Brooke Averick?

  That's why I go to the movies.

• 52:27Speaker 02

  That is why we go? I will tell you too. Like, you know when? I don't F with...

• 52:35Speaker 02

  People like reacting in movies. Like, I'm sorry, I don't.

• 52:39Brooke Averick?

  Oh, interesting.

• 52:40Speaker 02

  Like laughing or going, ooh, or like, like, I don't think I could go see... I'm not like a Marvel fan necessarily. I'll go see the movies. I'm like, it's fun. But people being like, there's the character that I like and like, ooh, and then like... I get crying and stuff, but like, having audible reactions, like, there needs to be a loud theater. And then like one... Where we're all kind of just watching the movie.

• 53:08Brooke Averick?

  But in the Saltburn Theater, you would rather have everyone watch the come slurping in total silence? Rather than like a few gasps and like, huh?

• 53:17Speaker 02

  That was the exception?

• 53:19Brooke Averick?

  Like, I'm not, I love when we're all like, no, no, no, no, no, no, together.

• 53:23Speaker 02

  When, during the grave scene, which we now know was improvised, which makes me so freaked out. That like one of the Beatles and the Beatles biopic improvised a scene where he was...

• 53:37Speaker 02

  Performing coitus on a grave?

• 53:39Brooke Averick?

  No, I honest to God think if you were in the character... And you were hugging the grave, you, there's, there was no other option as to where that scene's going.

• 53:50Speaker 02

  Spot on. I'm doing, I'm doing what I did on the dance floor.

• 53:53Brooke Averick?

  You know what has to happen next.

• 53:57Speaker 02

  I will say...

• 53:57Brooke Averick?

  And you're gonna do it.

• 53:58Speaker 02

  When that happened, that was an out of, I turned towards my seat and went like this.

• 54:03Brooke Averick?

  That's a very much like, he's not gonna fuck the grave, is he? He is gonna fuck the grave, okay?

• 54:08Speaker 02

  I couldn't, I couldn't watch. It was like...

• 54:10Brooke Averick?

  But like, he had to.

• 54:11Speaker 02

  It was beyond desecration.

• 54:13Brooke Averick?

  He absolutely had to, based off of the person that he was. It would not have made sense for him.

• 54:18Speaker 02

  I'm so confused.

• 54:19Brooke Averick?

  It would not have made sense for him to keep his... His...

• 54:23Speaker 02

  Dick in his pants.

• 54:23Brooke Averick?

  His member out of the soil. Wouldn't have made sense. Wouldn't have aligned with his character.

• 54:28Speaker 02

  You, Brooke, when you're right, you're really right.

• 54:30Brooke Averick?

  I know that.

• 54:31Speaker 02

  I don't totally understand like where his head was at. Because no, like, you are who you are when no one's watching. And like, no one was watching. It's all like, it was at the funeral and it was like, I need to show everyone how much I am going to miss this young man. Watch. It was like... Oh, I'm alone.

• 54:55Speaker 02

  Time to get it on.

• 54:56Brooke Averick?

  What my body is compelling me to do.

• 54:59Speaker 02

  Like, did, what was?

• 55:00Brooke Averick?

  It wasn't even, to me, it wasn't sexual.

• 55:04Speaker 02

  No, I don't think so either. I think it was more like a craving for flesh.

• 55:08Brooke Averick?

  I was like, oh, to me, it was, I love you.

• 55:14Speaker 02

  In a yearning, almost a yearning kind of way, but...

• 55:15Brooke Averick?

  It's almost like a yearn, like a carnal.

• 55:18Speaker 02

  Carnal. That was, yeah. It was carnal.

• 55:20Brooke Averick?

  It was like, I...

• 55:22Speaker 02

  You need to, we cannot look at this image. I'm so sorry. It is disgusting. No matter what it is, it's disgusting.

• 55:29Brooke Averick?

  I, see, to me, come...

• 55:31Speaker 02

  What?

• 55:32Brooke Averick?

  Come slurping was disgusting. Like, I absolutely loved it. It was disgusting and it gave me chills. Grave fucking, I was like... Didn't find it disgusting. Found it powerful.

• 55:47Brooke Averick?

  At the end of the day, it's like, are you a come slurper or are you a great fucker? Do you know what I mean?

• 55:56Speaker 02

  Oh my god.

• 55:58Brooke Averick?

  Who are you?

• 56:01Speaker 02

  You are a cinephile, aren't you?

• 56:02Brooke Averick?

  Yup.

• 56:05Brooke Averick?

  Yup. Wait, I had a panic attack about being stopped by the Letterboxd lady the other day and I had to write down my, my big four.

• 56:13Speaker 02

  I think that's a smart thing to do because lord knows what I would say. Fool's Gold, Four Christmases, Titanic, and bub bub bub bub bum, Fifty First Dates.

• 56:21Brooke Averick?

  Connor, mine are Twilight, Superbad, Princess Diaries, and Tarzan.

• 56:24Speaker 02

  You're gonna wanna lie.

• 56:25Brooke Averick?

  Do you think?

• 56:27Speaker 02

  Like, I love that because, but these people, you wanna... No, I like that. I like that. And I think that's representative of your, your character and I think that builds a person.

• 56:39Brooke Averick?

  I have a lying one, too.

• 56:41Speaker 02

  What's your lying one?

• 56:41Brooke Averick?

  Princess Bride. Well, I would keep Twilight. Twilight, I'm also not lying, it's just like, I love these movies. It's like the more, my favorite movies that are a little bit more elevated.

• 56:51Speaker 02

  What shaped you? What was the house that built you?

• 56:52Brooke Averick?

  But these are not the movies that I'm like, putting on every second of every day like I did Princess Diaries, Superbad, Twilight, and Tarzan.

• 56:58Speaker 02

  Princess Bride is in there?

• 57:00Brooke Averick?

  Princess Diaries is in my, like, I'm watching every day. Princess Bride is in my more elevated favorites. So my more elevated favorites are Princess Bride, Dirty Dancing, Crazy Stupid Love, and Twilight.

• 57:16Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 57:20Speaker 02

  I didn't like Crazy Stupid Love.

• 57:24Speaker 02

  I have to say, I think that was like the beginning of these like YouTube movies.

• 57:28Brooke Averick?

  See, that to me is the last of the rom-coms. The last of the good rom-coms.

• 57:33Speaker 02

  I think it plays in terms of rom-com. I think that that's when we started getting towards like, remember when Valentine's Day came out and like, why did they have-

• 57:41Brooke Averick?

  Like multiple storylines?

• 57:42Speaker 02

  It was multiple storylines, but also like, everyone's too famous for me to like latch.

• 57:48Brooke Averick?

  But like,

• 57:50Brooke Averick?

  that was right, yes, they were all super famous, but like, it was right before Emma Stone was like Emma Stone.

• 58:01Speaker 02

  I think Emma Stone's one of the best actresses in the world.

• 58:03Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, I do too.

• 58:03Speaker 02

  But she doesn't connect with me for some reason.

• 58:07Brooke Averick?

  Oh, interesting.

• 58:08Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 58:09Brooke Averick?

  Um...

• 58:10Speaker 02

  And Begonia didn't help.

• 58:11Brooke Averick?

  Oh, I didn't see Begonia. Oh, but I loved Four Things, honestly. Maybe that-

• 58:15Speaker 02

  What?

• 58:16Brooke Averick?

  Maybe I'll put that on my, oh my god, I'll put Saltburn on-

• 58:20Speaker 02

  Brooke, don't put Saltburn on your list, please. That's gonna be, people are gonna-

• 58:24Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, you're right.

• 58:25Speaker 02

  Make up stories about why.

• 58:27Brooke Averick?

  Oh, Edward Scissorhands, maybe I'll put on my list.

• 58:29Speaker 02

  You are fascinating.

• 58:30Brooke Averick?

  Really?

• 58:31Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 58:37Speaker 02

  Well, let me try to think of like a deeper, more serious book that I could, or movie that I could put on my list.

• 58:42Brooke Averick?

  I love The Royal Tenenbaums, but I feel like I haven't seen it enough to be like, it's my, one of my favorite.

• 58:48Speaker 02

  Have you ever watched a serious movie?

• 58:51Speaker 02

  Oh my god, I don't know if I have.

• 58:54Brooke Averick?

  Let me go to my really long, favorite romantic gestures.

• 58:57Speaker 02

  Oh my god, I don't know if I have. What's a serious movie? Think. Think.

• 59:03Brooke Averick?

  You've seen things in theater, like Marty Supreme?

• 59:07Speaker 02

  What the hell happened with that? I thought that was-

• 59:13Speaker 02

  Marty Supreme was like going and watching a fireworks show. Like, it's over and now it's gone.

• 59:18Brooke Averick?

  Saint Almost Fire, I really love.

• 59:22Speaker 02

  Oh my gosh, Izzy just pulled up a, oh, um, hey, you know what I like?

• 59:29Brooke Averick?

  What?

• 59:34Speaker 02

  Oh my god.

• 59:35Brooke Averick?

  Maybe I was-

• 59:35Speaker 02

  Life of Pi. There, that's a good one. Yeah. It's symbolism. You know I like symbolism.

• 59:40Brooke Averick?

  That is, see, that to me, it's like, way too much symbolism.

• 59:44Speaker 02

  I like the symbolism. I haven't seen any of these serious movies that Izzy just pulled up.

• 59:49Brooke Averick?

  Wait, sorry. Oh my god, you've not seen Remember Me?

• 59:51Speaker 02

  No, what is it? What's it about?

• 59:53Brooke Averick?

  The Robert Pattinson movie with like a pretty big twist at the end.

• 59:58Speaker 02

  Twist?

• 59:58Brooke Averick?

  I'm gonna spoil Remember Me because it's been out for 25 years. It's like, the, everything happens and at the end, they just zoom out and Rob's like in the Twin Towers. And it's 9/11, and he's about to go down.

• 1:00:12Speaker 02

  Oh, that sucks.

• 1:00:13Brooke Averick?

  But like, it kind of had, the whole movie had nothing to do with 9/11. He just like ended up, the last scene of the movie is just like, him in an office and zoom out. Then you, you realize that the movie takes place in, on 9/11, 2020, 21, 2001, is what I meant to say. So... Then, just last shot is him. You know I love Shutter Island.

• 1:00:34Speaker 02

  I watched Shutter Island the other day.

• 1:00:36Brooke Averick?

  Oh yeah, did you not like it?

• 1:00:37Speaker 02

  Nope.

• 1:00:38Brooke Averick?

  That's so insane.

• 1:00:40Speaker 02

  Anyways.

• 1:00:41Brooke Averick?

  Every Tuesday night. Life of Pi.

• 1:00:43Speaker 02

  Do you wanna hear an insane twist at the end?

• 1:00:45Brooke Averick?

  The Pervert's Guide to Cinema. What's that? My memoir?

• 1:00:56Brooke Averick?

  I don't know, I'm not familiar with The Pervert's Guide to Cinema. Sure my ass would like it.

• 1:01:02Brooke Averick?

  Slavjak Zizek guides the viewer through some of the greatest movies ever made. Oh, okay. This is like a, not the type of movie that I would watch.

• 1:01:14Speaker 02

  Um, do you wanna hear an insane twist at the end?

• 1:01:16Brooke Averick?

  Marcel the Shell. Oh my god, Tic Tic Boom. That's my favorite movie. Love Actually. I have to completely redo my Letterboxd four. Big Fat Liar.

• 1:01:26Speaker 02

  These are like, yeah, movies.

• 1:01:30Brooke Averick?

  Okay, I have to do some complete reframing.

• 1:01:35Speaker 02

  I went to Creation the other day.

• 1:01:37Brooke Averick?

  Yeah?

• 1:01:38Speaker 02

  Well, I didn't go. I ordered it. With a K? To get a salad. I got a juice and a salad, and I'm, and I got a wellness shot in my, in my bag. And I'm like, okay, cool, this is a well-rounded meal. And I eat this out and I'm like, it's so funky that like, this is so dry, but I guess it's healthy. And I'm eating this out, eating this out, choking it down. It's very dry. I'm just taking sips of my green smoothie to get it down. And at the end, I was like, now I'm gonna wash it down with my wellness shot. And I take the wellness shot and I'm like, oh my god, this must be really healthy. This is disgusting.

• 1:02:15Brooke Averick?

  Spired.

• 1:02:17Speaker 02

  Balsamic Vinaigrette.

• 1:02:22Brooke Averick?

  Ah, you are.

• 1:02:24Speaker 02

  I was so healthy. I had the healthiest meal in the world, and then I washed it down with probably 350 calories of salad dressing.

• 1:02:31Brooke Averick?

  Man, you are.

• 1:02:35Brooke Averick?

  How's your, do you feel like your body's strong?

• 1:02:39Speaker 02

  My legs are stronger.

• 1:02:41Brooke Averick?

  Yeah. I see that.

• 1:02:44Speaker 02

  My upper body, I really need to go to the gym.

• 1:02:47Brooke Averick?

  Surely your arms are like, feeling toned.

• 1:02:51Speaker 02

  No. No. They're not toned.

• 1:02:55Brooke Averick?

  Um, I saw Verity.

• 1:02:57Speaker 02

  Did you really?

• 1:02:58Brooke Averick?

  And I saw Primetime.

• 1:02:59Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 1:03:02Brooke Averick?

  Everyone's being so dramatic about Verity.

• 1:03:05Speaker 02

  What do you mean? What are they saying?

• 1:03:06Brooke Averick?

  Everyone's saying it's the worst thing they've ever seen. It was very entertaining and like, fun. Y'all are like, doing way too much. Sorry. Like, it's a fun time. I don't know what everyone was expecting, but like, it's a, it's an entertaining two hours.

• 1:03:24Speaker 02

  Is it kind of like bad acting vibes?

• 1:03:28Brooke Averick?

  I...

• 1:03:31Brooke Averick?

  I honestly, I, I think, hmm, how to say? How to say?

• 1:03:38Speaker 02

  You can say whatever you feel.

• 1:03:40Brooke Averick?

  I don't think it was bad acting. I think Dakota plays a pretty similar role in every movie, which is maybe, like, you could have taken her character from Fifty Shades of Grey and put her in Verity, and it would be the same thing. It was, it would be all, like, that's what happened. Um, which is fine. Like, I don't think her character needed to be super deep. Um, and Anne was definitely, it's like, it was kind of like campy. Anne was like playing a very, like a caricature of a woman. Of this like, of this author.

• 1:04:11Speaker 02

  We've reached a point really quick for even, for, where like, every movie, if it's bad, we can't just call it campy. Like, I'm sorry.

• 1:04:19Brooke Averick?

  I didn't call the movie campy, I said her acting was campy.

• 1:04:21Speaker 02

  I know, but like, we can't, like, it has been for a little while, like, I'm like, I think the movie was bad, and people are like, well, it's campy, or the TV show was bad. Well, it's campy, it's intentionally, okay, crazy idea, why don't we make something good?

• 1:04:38Brooke Averick?

  It's just like, I just thought it was like exact, like a goo, a good adaptation, like it was the book. Granted, I read the, I read the book when it came out, I don't, 2018 or 2019 or something. Um, so I don't remember it that well, but like, from the, everything I remembered, it was just the book. So like, I don't know what people were expecting.

• 1:04:59Brooke Averick?

  Like, obviously, some things are gonna change.

• 1:05:01Speaker 02

  Do you feel like, in today's day and age, everyone's very hypercritical of everything?

• 1:05:06Brooke Averick?

  I feel like everyone was being super, like, it was just a moot, like, it was a moot, like, y'all, it was fine. Like, it was good, it was entertaining. And like, at least for me, like, I was not expecting it to be anything-

• 1:05:15Speaker 02

  Whoa! Oh shit, sorry. Just a little fly on me. I don't know why I reacted that way.

• 1:05:19Brooke Averick?

  I was just not expecting it to be anything other than entertaining. I do, I think that, the like outcry is like, kind of crazy. Like, I thought it was so, just so fine.

• 1:05:28Speaker 02

  There's a public outcry?

• 1:05:28Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, everyone's like, it's the worst thing I've ever seen. It is not the worst thing you've ever seen.

• 1:05:32Speaker 02

  Huh.

• 1:05:33Brooke Averick?

  By any means.

• 1:05:36Brooke Averick?

  Like, I don't know, I just don't know what people were expecting, I guess. Primetime, on the other hand.

• 1:05:43Brooke Averick?

  Robert Pattinson is like genuinely the best actor that, that, on this, of the year. Have you seen what, what he's capable of in this film?

• 1:05:52Speaker 02

  No.

• 1:05:53Brooke Averick?

  His Chris Hansen impression? It's like, pretty scary. Do you know Chris Hansen?

• 1:05:59Speaker 02

  Enough. I, I wanna ask you about him, though.

• 1:06:02Brooke Averick?

  I didn't know, I didn't know much. All I knew is that I had seen Chris Hansen talking about the movie and how it just, everything is a completely fictionalized a version of his life, like, nothing actually happened. So when I saw the movie, something happens in the end, and I was like, damn, that's like a crazy liberty to take. It's like a, a wild spin on, on this story. Come to find that's the true part?

• 1:06:29Brooke Averick?

  I was like, whoa. I can't believe this happened, and I never knew about it.

• 1:06:34Speaker 02

  Can you tell me what it is?

• 1:07:05Brooke Averick?

  Um, I mean, I guess, yeah, cuz it happened in real life. Basically, they

• 1:07:13Brooke Averick?

  they they caught a predator and he ended up being like, uh, I forget what his role was, something in the government. He was a DA.

• 1:07:23Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah?

• 1:07:24Brooke Averick?

  And then when they were closing in on him, he shot himself, like on sight.

• 1:07:30Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 1:07:31Brooke Averick?

  And that led to the show being canceled cuz there were so many lawsuits involved. I'm just like, it's crazy that I never heard about that happening cuz like that's one crazy thing for the DA to be seeking out young men online, which like, obviously that shit happens, but like it's just crazy that it was so public and I never heard about it and he killed himself and there's this whole thing. So that's what I was like, oh damn, that's a crazy creative liberty to take. But it really happened. The creative liberty that they did take, which has to do with Skylar, what is his last name?

• 1:08:05Speaker 02

  Gwesingado.

• 1:08:05Brooke Averick?

  Something like that, who I'm obsessed with, by the way.

• 1:08:07Speaker 02

  Me too. I wanna, we should have Skylar on.

• 1:08:10Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, I love him. Um, he's so talented. The creative liberty that they took had to do with, that Chris Hansen was referring to had to do with his storyline, but I don't even think it was that much of a creative liberty. I think they were actually like drawing attention to something really important. He plays a decoy, which is like the actors on How to Catch a Predator that would lure the predators in. And basically his storyline was like, how that affected the decoys cuz they were like, in ways like, kind of like assaulted, like it's really scary to like, be associating with the actual predators. Yeah, so they were kind of like drawing light onto that and obviously taking creative

• 1:08:52Brooke Averick?

  liberties while they did it, which I'm assuming is what Chris Hansen was like. None of that happened, but like, definitely it was an interesting story.

• 1:09:04Speaker 02

  What's happening now with like the public eye, like Chris Hansen didn't, is not getting like flowers from this show, which like, or this movie, which is weird cuz I feel like this is, you would.

• 1:09:18Brooke Averick?

  What do you mean, like flowers?

• 1:09:20Speaker 02

  Like, I'm only seeing

• 1:09:22Brooke Averick?

  Well, he's like, fuck this.

• 1:09:24Speaker 02

  So does it paint him in a bad light?

• 1:09:27Brooke Averick?

  The part that is like questionable is the part of like how the decoys, like they were put in these really vulnerable positions that were like, and like in the in the show Skylar's like pretty much assaulted because one of the predators like whips out his piece in front of him on his first day. And then Skylar's, or Dan Plum, Skylar's character is like, obviously like very, very shaken by that. And then they just kind of brush it under the rug and Chris Hansen, Robert Pattinson is like, you're good, like you're doing great, you're doing great work, like you're actually like catching predators, like good for you, like keep it up, like.

• 1:10:07Speaker 02

  Oh, Chris Hansen should have been the decoy.

• 1:10:08Brooke Averick?

  But Chris Hansen is like, that didn't happen, which like I'm sure that scene didn't happen, but like, it's just like the whole concept of the decoy is like not okay.

• 1:10:19Speaker 02

  He's gonna sue?

• 1:10:20Brooke Averick?

  So that would, that, yeah, I'm sure.

• 1:10:23Speaker 02

  Can we scroll down a little bit? Page six, Chris Hansen will decide if he's suing over Robert Pattinson movie about his life.

• 1:10:29Brooke Averick?

  Yeah, I don't, he's, he's talking about it a lot. And he's also like, do I really talk like that? Yes, my lovey. Yes, my love bucket. I thought it was fabulous.

• 1:10:43Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 1:10:44Brooke Averick?

  And Rob did like, like it's, it's, when you watch the side by sides.

• 1:10:49Speaker 02

  I'll have to check it out.

• 1:10:52Brooke Averick?

  I would have loved How to Catch a Predator while it was on though, it was like, like without realizing, I'm, my ass probably wouldn't have realized it was problematic. I'm very stupid. Um, but it's like the first Catfish. Yeah, watch it.

• 1:11:10Speaker 02

  Oh, let's listen to it.

• 1:11:29Speaker 02

  I'm having trouble taking him out of Batman.

• 1:11:33Brooke Averick?

  I want you to try to take him out of Batman.

• 1:11:39Speaker 02

  To me, that was like the Joker talking.

• 1:11:42Brooke Averick?

  He never played the Joker.

• 1:11:43Speaker 02

  To me, and that, that was the Joker. You see how this looks, right?

• 1:11:47Brooke Averick?

  How about you try, how about you go watch, you watch it?

• 1:11:49Speaker 02

  No, I won't.

• 1:11:49Brooke Averick?

  You don't have time.

• 1:11:50Speaker 02

  I have time to watch movies.

• 1:11:52Brooke Averick?

  It's in theaters.

• 1:11:53Speaker 02

  Oh. Hmm, no.

• 1:11:57Brooke Averick?

  Anyway, I really, really liked it. I thought it was very interesting and I thought the performances were really brilliant.

• 1:12:06Speaker 02

  Oh, good, okay, I'll check it out.

• 1:12:07Brooke Averick?

  But also like, I'm stupid.

• 1:12:10Speaker 02

  Don't say that about my friend.

• 1:12:12Brooke Averick?

  Or I'm not a cinephile, so like, what do I know? Me saying, hey, Verity was good.

• 1:12:18Speaker 02

  I know, I think there's a lot of very stupid people that have input on a lot of things.

• 1:12:23Brooke Averick?

  I'm definitely not a cinephile, that's what I'll say. I can only speak to what I enjoyed.

• 1:12:27Speaker 02

  Well, that's it. If it worked for you, it worked for you. If it makes you happy.

• 1:12:34Brooke Averick?

  Here's what I'll say, though. Here's what I think is interesting. While I was sitting in, I saw Verity and Primetime one night apart. I, Primetime is a thousand percent a better movie. I enjoyed them both the same. Like my level, like my level of engagement was the same. One is a good movie and one is just entertainment. But I was having fun in both of them.

• 1:13:00Speaker 02

  That's all you can ask.

• 1:13:01Brooke Averick?

  That's all, and that's everything I've ever asked for.

• 1:13:05Speaker 02

  Are you an AMC A-list?

• 1:13:06Brooke Averick?

  Oh, absolutely.

• 1:13:07Speaker 02

  Do you go to four movies a month?

• 1:13:09Brooke Averick?

  It's a week.

• 1:13:10Speaker 02

  What?

• 1:13:10Brooke Averick?

  It's four movies a week you can go to.

• 1:13:12Speaker 02

  Is there that many movies out?

• 1:13:14Brooke Averick?

  No. But you can see more.

• 1:13:17Speaker 02

  How are they making any money from that?

• 1:13:19Brooke Averick?

  I think most people don't use it to its bill, it's full potential, I don't.

• 1:13:23Speaker 02

  How many movies do you see a month?

• 1:13:26Brooke Averick?

  It depends on the month. Sometimes I'll see five movies a month and sometimes I won't see any.

• 1:13:30Speaker 02

  I haven't been to the movies since Wicked.

• 1:13:34Brooke Averick?

  I'll go with you whenever.

• 1:13:35Speaker 02

  I would go.

• 1:13:36Brooke Averick?

  Okay.
