THE FEEL WEIRD PODCAST - BEST OF 2025 - S3EP7

[00:00:11] Speaker A: Welcome back to the Phil Weird podcast. We have. I feel like we say this obviously every single time. [00:00:17] Speaker B: We do. We've got to stop saying it. [00:00:18] Speaker A: But we've almost had a hiatus. I'm actually going to genuinely start again. [00:00:24] Speaker B: No, I don't think. [00:00:24] Speaker A: No, I'm starting again. That's start again. [00:00:27] Speaker B: But keep it in, keep it in, keep it in. We said beforehand for listeners, because we. Keeping all this in that Sam said, you're ill. Do not put your mouth near that mic unless you're talking to us. So it's a good start. [00:00:39] Speaker A: She just deep throated the mic while coughing. While I'm introing. [00:00:41] Speaker B: Can we also say, though, this is. We've been doing this to two years now. [00:00:44] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:00:45] Speaker B: Still going on. [00:00:46] Speaker A: Still going on. [00:00:47] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:00:48] Speaker A: Oh, God, no. That was like a moment out of the office. I just panned and looked and she was like. And she started going me out. [00:00:54] Speaker B: She's like, she needs a camera on me. I don't know why after two years you've not invested in a third camera. No, because you'll kick it over and like, the funny thing is, you know. [00:01:00] Speaker A: When you're coughing, you were right up in the camera, in the microphone's grill and now you're talking. You're out. Three foot behind it. [00:01:04] Speaker B: Yeah. Anyway, continue. [00:01:07] Speaker A: Anyway, we've had a little hiatus almost because December was carnage for us both. But we've returned for. Which is crazy now. This is the second time we've done this. [00:01:18] Speaker B: Go on. [00:01:19] Speaker A: We're doing the best of 2025. [00:01:21] Speaker B: I know it's been a fun one. We've been looking forward to it. [00:01:23] Speaker A: 2024. [00:01:24] Speaker B: Last year we did. So if you listen to last year's one, you'll remember we did a bunch of categories in pop culture that we both came together and we ironically had the same TV show and the same second TV show because we both said, gentlemen and Fallout. [00:01:36] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:01:36] Speaker B: And a couple of the same albums. We've got the same ones and a few more. And listen out and let us know what your favorites were this year as well. [00:01:44] Speaker A: Absolutely. [00:01:45] Speaker B: Let's keep it going then. So 2025, like I said, we've got loads of categories we're going to go through together. Yeah. Should we start off at the top? [00:01:53] Speaker A: Sorry, four categories. Do we not want to have a little catch up about just the year? [00:01:58] Speaker B: Oh, you want to do a little roundup? I thought you'd end the year with a little bit of an overview and we'd start with the categories. Well, we can. We can do it. That way. [00:02:05] Speaker A: Let's do that, then. [00:02:05] Speaker B: We'll do that way. We'll do it that way. Okay. So whatever you want to start us off to be getting right into it. I'll let you go first, but I'll call it out. [00:02:12] Speaker A: Okay. [00:02:13] Speaker B: Did you hear that? Are we leaving it? [00:02:16] Speaker A: We're leaving it. [00:02:16] Speaker B: All right. Allow it, Sam. Favorite movie of the year last year. [00:02:19] Speaker A: What was the movie of the year? [00:02:21] Speaker B: There's only one right answer. [00:02:22] Speaker A: There is only one right answer. [00:02:23] Speaker B: Supreme came out in, like, December 31st. [00:02:28] Speaker A: Guess it came out 26. Part of the year. Part of the year. But it wasn't an obvious one for me. [00:02:34] Speaker B: It wasn't. [00:02:34] Speaker A: I really struggled. [00:02:35] Speaker B: Okay. [00:02:36] Speaker A: I had Mighty Supreme. [00:02:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:02:38] Speaker A: I had Sinners, obviously. [00:02:39] Speaker B: Obviously. [00:02:39] Speaker A: Which I assume was gonna be your. [00:02:41] Speaker B: I ain't said yet, but go. [00:02:42] Speaker A: You're gonna roll out and you're gonna be one of the. Have you seen all those memes of all the Golden Globes and the award season recently? [00:02:48] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:02:48] Speaker A: And everyone's just like, oh, yeah, Marty. Supreme was Sinners, though. Sinners was fucking. [00:02:52] Speaker B: Yeah, that's me. But I'm waiting for the Oscars. That's when it. That's when it really matters. [00:02:56] Speaker A: But I did have a bit of a list because there was a couple for me. I mean, Avatar 3 as a cinema experience was absolutely incredible. [00:03:01] Speaker B: Don't doubt it. [00:03:02] Speaker A: Although I do want to talk about. In a minute or when we get to it, or maybe even later on. [00:03:07] Speaker B: Go on. [00:03:08] Speaker A: That as much as I love the film, it's got its flaws. Yeah, it's got its flaws. But I actually also thought the newest. The final Mission Impossible. [00:03:16] Speaker B: Yeah. Dead Reckoning. [00:03:17] Speaker A: The Final Reckoning, which I realized the other day because he's Dead Reckoning. [00:03:21] Speaker B: Final Reckoning. This is it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:03:22] Speaker A: But I can't remember the last time. [00:03:24] Speaker B: I remember you smashed me off and were like, that's the best action movie I've ever seen. [00:03:28] Speaker A: Ever seen. [00:03:28] Speaker B: Like, that was last year. [00:03:30] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:03:31] Speaker B: So you did have a couple of. [00:03:32] Speaker A: Yeah. Well, then, obviously, then I forgot about. We've got Fantastic Four Thunderbolts. Sure, sure. This. There was three. Well, we saw Mickey 17 in cinema. That was really, really good. [00:03:40] Speaker B: But, yeah. [00:03:41] Speaker A: Caught stealing, I think I actually watched on my own. [00:03:44] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:03:45] Speaker A: That's like, one of the most underrated films of the year for me. [00:03:47] Speaker B: So really, there was a lot of bangers. But you're locking in Marty supreme as your number one. [00:03:51] Speaker A: I'm gonna. Yeah. Because it feels like the cliche, but, like, it was the most unique film I've seen for a while. [00:03:55] Speaker B: That's valid. [00:03:56] Speaker A: Obviously Sinners is very unique as well. [00:03:58] Speaker B: Obviously. But you don't think there's also maybe a sliver of recency bias in that. [00:04:03] Speaker A: Massively, do you not think? [00:04:04] Speaker B: Because I'm like that as well. Because obviously Sinners came out in April. Yeah, yeah. And obviously March supreme. We just watched it feels like two weeks ago in the cinema. [00:04:11] Speaker A: Yeah, it probably was two weeks ago. [00:04:12] Speaker B: I would say for me it is Sinners thought so. Hannah's like giving me a clap right now because it right here. Pause. [00:04:18] Speaker A: I hope she's not giving me the clap. [00:04:20] Speaker B: But it is absolutely Sinners because I still said it's the best film I've seen this decade. [00:04:24] Speaker A: Fair. Yeah. [00:04:25] Speaker B: And upon watching it four or five times now. Yeah, I think it still just gets better and better. Do you know that Terry's put in her top four all time? [00:04:34] Speaker A: Really? [00:04:34] Speaker B: And James said I'm this close to doing it as well. [00:04:37] Speaker A: I'm surprised by that. [00:04:37] Speaker B: I think just he said what he said watching it a second time and all the stuff that he now knows, you realize all the little nuances and the great plot points and the music as well. Like it just delivers everything so well. I mean it's a five star and Marty supreme is a five star. So I feel like maybe I'd put it second and it's like that. [00:04:58] Speaker A: I will admit that Reese, I am one of the worst people for recency. [00:05:02] Speaker B: Yeah, sure. [00:05:02] Speaker A: I. Absolutely. I'm so. I'm not. [00:05:04] Speaker B: No, it makes sense. It's valid. [00:05:05] Speaker A: I think we all same with Avatar. Like Yeah, true Avatar 3. I mean again we'll. I want to have a proper conversation about Avatar so we'll get into that later on. But yeah, the films do almost make me laugh as well because you know when you see people being like people have a love Avatar or don't get it. And everyone who don't get it has just been all over TikTok in last week. Being like, who actually watches these films because they all three of them made over a billion in less than three weeks. [00:05:28] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:05:29] Speaker A: It's the highest grossing franchise ever. Yeah, exactly. I think I'm a really big fan because me and Lil's loved them. But then I also realized when someone. [00:05:38] Speaker B: Said it, you can't name four characters. [00:05:39] Speaker A: That's exactly it. [00:05:40] Speaker B: Yeah, I totally see it. [00:05:42] Speaker A: And at first I thought, oh, it's because they're all like made up names and it's the navi language or whatever I can name. You remember Kenobi There isn't any Obi Wan's walking around the street. [00:05:50] Speaker B: No, it's a very good point. I saw probably the same video when you saw what the paradox of it were. [00:05:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:05:54] Speaker B: It's the only enormously successful IP where they're no one's favorite movie. No, no one says Avatar is my favorite film. And they'll be huge fans of it. And as of watching the first and the second just last month. Yeah, the first, obviously, again. And the second for the first time. Stunning. They're amazing. They're incredible. [00:06:12] Speaker A: And you're not seeing yet, have you? [00:06:13] Speaker B: No. [00:06:14] Speaker A: Which I hate to spoil for you is basically exactly the same as the same. [00:06:16] Speaker B: I've heard exactly that. Copy and paste. [00:06:19] Speaker A: But I will say that this fucking woman. [00:06:23] Speaker B: This is actually Liam's wife that just texted. [00:06:25] Speaker A: You said that last time. [00:06:27] Speaker B: It was. That's fine. But whack your phone on silent. Go on what you're saying. [00:06:31] Speaker A: But. And again, I guess that's probably the strongest point of Avatar. That, as much as I'm fully aware of that, didn't ruin it for me at all. Still enjoyed it. [00:06:39] Speaker B: Should we move it on then to the next one? I'll call. [00:06:41] Speaker A: I wanted to say very quickly, honorable mention to highest to lowest, because I still feel like because it's Apple release, no one ever spoke about that film. And it was brilliant. [00:06:48] Speaker B: Yeah, that's very. [00:06:50] Speaker A: Soundtrack's fantastic as well on the soundtrack. And obviously ASAP's just released a new album. [00:06:54] Speaker B: Of course. [00:06:55] Speaker A: Spoilers for next episode. [00:06:56] Speaker B: Spoilers. We'll move on next one. Best TV show of 2025. What you got? I'm so. Best TV. It's fine. Don't worry about it. I'm just gonna repeat it. Shut up. Joke. [00:07:06] Speaker A: Go on. [00:07:07] Speaker B: She's gonna go again, right? [00:07:10] Speaker A: Oh, she go for tissues. Okay, go. [00:07:12] Speaker B: Best TV show. 2025. What have you got? [00:07:14] Speaker A: I'm not good at this game. I'm sorry. I'm going for a dead split with two. [00:07:17] Speaker B: That's calm. [00:07:18] Speaker A: I'm going Severance in the studio. [00:07:20] Speaker B: Oh, two. But you know what? I put Severance season two. [00:07:23] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:07:23] Speaker B: But I absolutely agree because I forgot about studio existed. Yeah, they're both right there for the most different reasons. [00:07:29] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:07:30] Speaker B: Shows. Yeah. [00:07:31] Speaker A: Yeah. Oh, God. [00:07:31] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:07:31] Speaker A: I didn't think of that. [00:07:32] Speaker B: But I agree. [00:07:33] Speaker A: Cleaned up on tv, by the way. No, they really did Platonic as well. Was a really good series with on Apple with Seth Rogen. Again with Rose. [00:07:41] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:07:42] Speaker A: Is it Rose Byrne or Rose E. Byrne? I always forget Rose Byrne. Yeah. [00:07:44] Speaker B: Anyway, and the Harrison Ford and shrinking. [00:07:48] Speaker A: That was really good. Stick. Was really good. [00:07:50] Speaker B: Don't know. Stick. [00:07:51] Speaker A: I put that on here, actually. [00:07:52] Speaker B: Well, yeah. Severance with Owen Wilson. Severance. And the studio is absolute. They're the correct answers. [00:07:57] Speaker A: Yeah. Brilliant. The studio. I feel like there's an overarching theme in when I say TV and film at the moment that I don't want to sound like I'm exaggerating, but I hope you agree. [00:08:07] Speaker B: Go on. [00:08:07] Speaker A: I feel like we're fucking back. [00:08:09] Speaker B: Yeah, good TVs on. [00:08:10] Speaker A: Good TV is on visually as well. [00:08:12] Speaker B: Yeah. Agree. [00:08:13] Speaker A: Everyone's making visually incredible. How many films have you watched recently where it's like, as a film, that was okay, but Roofman. [00:08:19] Speaker B: Roofman. Gorgeous movie. [00:08:21] Speaker A: That was way better than it needed to be. Way better looking than it needed to be. [00:08:25] Speaker B: I agree. [00:08:25] Speaker A: Obviously, everything A24 make is just looks amazing. One battle after another just was, like, amazing. So many films where I look back and think, actually that didn't reinvent the wheel as a story. But I couldn't tell when I'm watching it because it just looks so good. And I feel like I'm not. Obviously. I'm not saying that it's because of the studio. [00:08:41] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:08:42] Speaker A: But in that series, they're talking loads about how. Obviously there's the constant dilemma in. In Hollywood between making good films and. [00:08:51] Speaker B: Making money and making a. What's it called? Film. [00:08:54] Speaker A: Like a blockbuster. [00:08:55] Speaker B: No. What's the. My Guy who Comes through the Wall. Oh, what's his name? What the hell's his name? [00:09:01] Speaker A: I know. Exactly. It's an American thing in it. [00:09:03] Speaker B: What's his name? [00:09:04] Speaker A: I went to call it Jello Kool Aid. [00:09:06] Speaker B: Kool Aid movie. [00:09:07] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:09:08] Speaker B: But no, those are the two right answers. And I'd be surprised. I'm trying to think of what other banger shows came out because I didn't even Google it. [00:09:14] Speaker A: I did. [00:09:15] Speaker B: I knew it was gonna be this. What else came out was Shogun last year. [00:09:21] Speaker A: I put a couple of different ones. [00:09:23] Speaker B: Go on, let me hear him. [00:09:24] Speaker A: Chad Powers. Did you ever end up watching that? [00:09:26] Speaker B: Nope. I watched a ton of it on TikTok, though. Really entertaining. [00:09:29] Speaker A: Although the most disappointing finale I've ever seen in my life, to the point where I genuinely was expecting another episode. It didn't even remotely. [00:09:36] Speaker B: Stranger Things Ended. [00:09:37] Speaker A: Yeah. It didn't remotely. Even Cliffhanger. It was just like. It was just a normal episode. [00:09:40] Speaker B: They're doing a season two, though. [00:09:41] Speaker A: Apparently. Yeah. [00:09:42] Speaker B: All right, Maybe they can bring it back. [00:09:43] Speaker A: I did put Stick, like I said before, so that was just Ted Lasso for golf. [00:09:48] Speaker B: Okay. [00:09:49] Speaker A: Almost a carbon copy. [00:09:50] Speaker B: Is it Owen Wilson? [00:09:51] Speaker A: Yeah. But I did really enjoy it. I like anything Owen Wilson does. [00:09:55] Speaker B: Yeah, he's good. I rewatched Wedding. I watched Wedding Crashes first time last week. First time, first time, Never seen it. [00:10:00] Speaker A: Unbelievable duo. Them too. [00:10:01] Speaker B: Yeah. Oh, Vince Vaughan is, I think, such a great comedy actor. [00:10:04] Speaker A: You know, when anyone asks, would you want to go for a drink with Vince? Vaughan's always in my top three. [00:10:07] Speaker B: You know, he started off in horror. [00:10:09] Speaker A: Did not know that. [00:10:09] Speaker B: One of his first roles, Norman Bates in Bates Motel. In one of those, like the classic ones, when he was really young. Because also he's like 6 5, so he's a very physically intimidating presence. But Vince Vaughan started off in that and then they were like, he's joke. Why are we putting him in horror? Get him out of there. [00:10:26] Speaker A: Absolutely, yeah. Put Shrinky in, like you said. That was really good on. That's a new series coming out. [00:10:30] Speaker B: Totally valid. [00:10:31] Speaker A: Daredevil Born Again, I feel like Resurrected Marvel series a little bit because, I mean, even though I didn't finish Iron Fist in the end, people that watched it actually said it was quite good. But I feel like Daredevil Born Again really kind of set a mark of. Okay. Well, I think it was the first piece of media that came out after the strikes won it. [00:10:49] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:10:49] Speaker A: Or at least that was rewritten after the strikes. [00:10:51] Speaker B: Yeah, I think so. [00:10:52] Speaker A: And you could tell Kevin Feige walked in and went, this is shit. Let's redo it. Because Daredevil then was. [00:10:57] Speaker B: Well, I mean, they're going to reveal the trailer any day now. Kirsten Ritter, the girl who plays Jessica Jones, you know you didn't watch on Netflix. [00:11:04] Speaker A: No, I did. [00:11:05] Speaker B: Oh, did you? Oh, well, great show. [00:11:07] Speaker A: I don't think I finished it. [00:11:08] Speaker B: Okay. But she's in season two and she showed her store on her Instagram story. I'm more just trying to think, not confused about what you're doing, but I think so. [00:11:19] Speaker A: I think they're about to get all, oh, well. [00:11:21] Speaker B: Because she was doing that with. That was her and Luke Cage, which I don't think is coming back. [00:11:25] Speaker A: Yeah, but that whole, like, timeline. Yeah, they all fuck each other, don't they? [00:11:29] Speaker B: Yeah, but they've kind of got rid of all that, so I don't know what they're doing. Anyway. Should we keep it going on? [00:11:33] Speaker A: I had last. Last one, which I'm really annoyed that you still haven't watched. [00:11:37] Speaker B: Go on. [00:11:38] Speaker A: Paradise. [00:11:39] Speaker B: Oh, the James. [00:11:40] Speaker A: The End of the World. [00:11:41] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:11:41] Speaker A: James Mars he's handsome for and for Lil's. [00:11:45] Speaker B: Sterling K. Brown and yeah. [00:11:46] Speaker A: James writers. And this is us that you absolutely love. Do you remember Paradise? Love. [00:11:50] Speaker B: Bloody love that show. [00:11:52] Speaker A: Bloody love that shit. It was just. It was just a really clever show. And again, consider everyone's making films about apocalypses these days. I mean, obviously Fallout's back out. Between Fallout, Silo and Paradise. That was three films about going underground after a nuke going off. [00:12:09] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:12:09] Speaker A: So three series. [00:12:10] Speaker B: Good point. [00:12:11] Speaker A: And it was just really different. Really good. But we'll move on. [00:12:14] Speaker B: Next one we've got song of the year. What's your favorite song of the year? 2025. [00:12:19] Speaker A: Ooh, that's not cryptic. [00:12:21] Speaker B: It's just got like nine answers. Yeah. I went through my playlist of my most played songs last year. A lot of times go, that was great. But also it's not a all time great song, but I'm trying not to like, try and just. What's a song? My top. My song I've got isn't a song that was even in my top 10. No, it probably was just about. But I bashed it a lot. [00:12:40] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:12:40] Speaker B: I love the tune. Is one you know very well. Have a baby with me. Oh, Daniel sees, Danny sees, Danny sees. [00:12:48] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:12:48] Speaker B: Big fat tune. Great music video. [00:12:50] Speaker A: Unbelievable. [00:12:51] Speaker B: Super melodic. Yeah. Gorgeous song. Bashed it a lot. [00:12:54] Speaker A: Yep. [00:12:55] Speaker B: Big fat tune. That's all needed. [00:12:57] Speaker A: I. I'm not gonna say anymore. [00:12:58] Speaker B: Because you've done the same and got. [00:13:00] Speaker A: Daniel Caesar later on. I have. [00:13:02] Speaker B: Later on. You have what? [00:13:04] Speaker A: Gone for Daniel Caesar and what category? [00:13:06] Speaker B: Oh, don't say. What have you got for tune? [00:13:09] Speaker A: So basically I did the same thing. I thought you've done one of your. [00:13:12] Speaker B: Own tunes, haven't you? [00:13:13] Speaker A: No, I haven't. No. [00:13:13] Speaker B: Okay. [00:13:14] Speaker A: I didn't want to overcomplicate. So I did go on just my top songs. [00:13:18] Speaker B: That's the way to do it. Yeah. Yeah. [00:13:19] Speaker A: And my top one was a song that wasn't from 2025. It was talked down by Dijon. [00:13:23] Speaker B: Okay. [00:13:23] Speaker A: So obviously that was Dijon. [00:13:24] Speaker B: Had an album last year though. [00:13:25] Speaker A: He did. Yeah. [00:13:26] Speaker B: Right. [00:13:27] Speaker A: His. I don't think it was as good as the last one, but I really enjoyed it anyway. [00:13:29] Speaker B: Okay. [00:13:30] Speaker A: Besides the point number two was 2025 and it was day one by Bon Iver. Oh, St. Vincent in it. [00:13:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:13:36] Speaker A: First and Dijon, ironically. Unbelievable song. I levitate. It takes me places. [00:13:43] Speaker B: A good song. I'll do that. [00:13:44] Speaker A: I whacked out a couple more though. [00:13:46] Speaker B: Goanna Mahiron. [00:13:46] Speaker A: Who knows Off Daniel Caesar's new album sure. Lives in my head. Rent Free, Rearrange My World with Daniel Caesar and Rex. Orange County. [00:13:52] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:13:53] Speaker A: One of the best clubs I've heard in a very long time. [00:13:54] Speaker B: Okay. [00:13:55] Speaker A: Lying by Lokana. [00:13:57] Speaker B: Lying, lying. Why are you lying? [00:13:59] Speaker A: For White Lion Bar, which I got the Lorcana football shirt on over there. Just realized was gonna wear it for this episode. For the odds go on Basically anything Justin Bieber did but walking away. Mathematics by Joy Crooks with Kano and Medium Builds White Male Privilege. They were all my top songs. [00:14:16] Speaker B: I didn't care about that mathematics at all. [00:14:19] Speaker A: I loved. [00:14:20] Speaker B: I didn't care for the honesty of the album that much. [00:14:22] Speaker A: Past the Soul and Carmen were fantastic. [00:14:24] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:14:26] Speaker A: First and spoilers for later. Fantastic visuals on the album. [00:14:31] Speaker B: Oh, yes. [00:14:32] Speaker A: Video wise. [00:14:33] Speaker B: Oh, I already know where this is going. Yeah. Yeah. I already know then. Because. Yeah, you're right then. [00:14:41] Speaker A: Can I just say you're really good at this by just answering once. [00:14:45] Speaker B: How so? [00:14:45] Speaker A: Oh, because I thought you'd be as bad as me. [00:14:47] Speaker B: I would have like 900. [00:14:48] Speaker A: Yeah, well, I thought. [00:14:49] Speaker B: But then I was thinking I've got to do the like. The what? We've asked to get one. Well, the next one. I've got two. Lilz, can I get you on Google Images ready for this one? Because we're doing best dressed celeb. [00:14:59] Speaker A: Oh, is that next? [00:15:00] Speaker B: That's next. We can do whatever I have in mind. I've got two. We'll do one at a time. Very different vibes. First one, give me Colman Domingo, please. [00:15:11] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [00:15:12] Speaker B: This man's fits. But the formal fit. [00:15:15] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:15:16] Speaker B: And even said someone had said to an interview and they said about who's. Yeah, pull up his. Just go through some of his pictures while Sam can have a look that's not his best look but just go through some of his others. Someone asked him an interview and said, colin, who do you think was the best dress this year? And he went, me. And I respect it because every time I see him at a red carpet event, he just has on the most Flames outfit. Rumors he's playing the new Kang, by the way, replacing Majors. And he's up. But I don't know what it is because he's quite a tall bloke. [00:15:42] Speaker A: I just watched him in Running Man. [00:15:44] Speaker B: He's great at it. [00:15:45] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:15:45] Speaker B: But yet every fit he throws on, he just looks so clean. [00:15:49] Speaker A: Yeah. Cool. [00:15:49] Speaker B: And I think you just have to have a lot of confidence to rock the kind of fits that he throws together. Do you know what I mean? Second one for the more Casual. Another tall bloke. [00:15:58] Speaker A: Oh, definitely not. [00:15:59] Speaker B: Different skin color. Show me Jacob Elordi, please. Oh, jabbing Jacob. Claudie. Fits or fashion, whatever. [00:16:05] Speaker A: I'm so glad everything goes the same one. [00:16:07] Speaker B: Oh, no, I hope she wouldn't. Having fashion, please. Just have a look at his. [00:16:11] Speaker A: Is he Australian, Jacob? [00:16:12] Speaker B: He is Australian, but anytime I've seen some of the fits he's thrown on together, like he dresses quite similar to us. And a lot of time where he throws either like a cap on or like an oversized jacket and a hoodie on and then a toe with it. Every time I see his fits, I think he just looks really cool. [00:16:28] Speaker A: Good looking guy. [00:16:29] Speaker B: He is a good looking. I mean. Oh, I'm so tall and good looking. [00:16:32] Speaker A: Oh, when I got to fucking shag Margot Robbie in a film he might have done. [00:16:37] Speaker B: That's a crazy Harry Hill collarbot. [00:16:38] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. Did you see that interview, Margot? He said that there was a point where they were on set and they both looked at each other and they actually felt like they were in love. But they worded it like, oh, the character's really. [00:16:48] Speaker B: Yeah. And you're like, let's not, you know, you lucky fucker. [00:16:51] Speaker A: Margot Robbie looks at you and even I heard that's not the good fit to pick. [00:16:54] Speaker B: No, that's not. You've kind of picked his maddest fits. [00:16:57] Speaker A: I'm running. We're on an audio podcast. [00:16:58] Speaker B: Go on that first one. Go on that very first picture. Top left corner, please. The blue jeans. And the blue jeans he wears just a lot of fits. Basic. But he makes look, obviously when you're six, five and in good shape, anything you wear. [00:17:13] Speaker A: Supermodel. [00:17:13] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:14] Speaker A: So I'll give you that. [00:17:14] Speaker B: It's a good one in it. [00:17:17] Speaker A: I've gone for one for more. Just when I say innovative, it's not necessary because ironically, Domingo Common. Domingo was innovative because he's wearing like wacky outfits. I went for Timothy Chalamet. [00:17:34] Speaker B: Oh, shalomay. Yeah. No valid, bro. [00:17:38] Speaker A: The guy's walking around in 2000s England tracksuits. Honestly, it's class I actually, it's a. [00:17:45] Speaker B: Marty supreme run where he's been dressed in very. [00:17:47] Speaker A: That's exactly. I wouldn't have if he'd not done that. I wouldn't have said anything because he's red carpet looks I don't really care for. [00:17:52] Speaker B: No, I agree. It's more since he's been shaved his head. Yeah, yeah. And he's got like the little like Cartier frames and he looks cool. [00:17:58] Speaker A: Sick as fuck. [00:17:59] Speaker B: Yeah. No, I Think that's a very valid and obviously. [00:18:02] Speaker A: And I kind of put a little bracket with Tyler Crait because I didn't want to answer the same as Tyler, but more because Tyler Craig, he always. [00:18:07] Speaker B: Throws out good fits every year. [00:18:08] Speaker A: Absolutely. But also because they've done the Marty Supreme Golf LaFleur Collab. [00:18:11] Speaker B: Yeah. Valid. So I thought very, very fair. To be honest. [00:18:14] Speaker A: Timmy's. Timmy's a great top of the game at the moment. I think he deserves everything. [00:18:18] Speaker B: I mean he was White boy of the year the last year as well. [00:18:21] Speaker A: So he deserves all of his flowers. And we'll get to that. [00:18:23] Speaker B: He absolutely does. [00:18:24] Speaker A: Actually, we've already got to that. We did Best movie. [00:18:27] Speaker B: He absolutely does. Huge fan of him. And I like a cocky actor, you know, why don't you want to be the best? [00:18:34] Speaker A: The more do it because I'm the same as you. I just watch shitloads of interviews and stuff. [00:18:38] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:18:38] Speaker A: In the background. The more I've enjoyed about him is that anyone who watched that one speech where he was like, oh, I'm striving for greatness. Who the you think you are? And then you watch him in other interviews and he's like, no, no, I'm very humble and I'm very humble. When he was on Graham Norton and he was like, yeah, I'm a big fan of all you guys actually name check them all things that they did. And even let's say it was John Bishop or some bullshit celebrity and he fucking Josh Whitaker. [00:19:03] Speaker B: I love your son. [00:19:04] Speaker A: Yeah. You've got a great impression of. [00:19:06] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:19:07] Speaker A: But he was like, I'm humble to be in the president of Greatness. I'm just striving to be the best. Why are we not idolizing that? [00:19:13] Speaker B: I totally agree. I think it's a way when you've got to be. Because also if you're in that job, then you don't have to pretend like it's. It's a difficult job to Adam. Sure it is. But you're allowed to say, I love my job and I want to be one of the greats. I think it's so valid. [00:19:26] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:19:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:19:27] Speaker A: I mean we respect it when sportsmen do it. [00:19:28] Speaker B: We respect it massively. But he said I told you that. [00:19:31] Speaker A: On it's very basketball did it on. [00:19:32] Speaker B: Mellow's podcast when he's talking about. He said he took that from athletes because he was like, all you rappers and athletes are always saying, I want to be the best. I'm the best Hooper, I'm the best rapper. Why shouldn't I say I'm the best. [00:19:43] Speaker A: Actor, we'll take away everything. Controversial how? The artist formerly known as Kanye West. [00:19:47] Speaker B: Sure. [00:19:47] Speaker A: He built a career on boosting people's self confidence. [00:19:51] Speaker B: True. [00:19:51] Speaker A: I mean, there's the famous phrase from him where he was like, I want to be the shot of espresso of self esteem that people take in the morning. Like, that's one of people's favorite things about Kanye West. [00:20:02] Speaker B: But he also said he wants a room full of mirrors so he can only see winners. So only look at him. [00:20:07] Speaker A: And he also said that Adolf Hitler was the best dressed man of the last hundred years. So. [00:20:10] Speaker B: Yeah, crazy. Maybe not. Anyway, let's keep it going. I've got a Nexon music video. Do you want to get to this one next? Do you want to go one of the others? [00:20:18] Speaker A: I'm happy with a music video. [00:20:19] Speaker B: All right, go on. You go first. Then. What was your favorite music video? 25. [00:20:22] Speaker A: So before we started rolling, I was saying that I had three or four and then Lilz was like, oh, it's got to be this one, because you played that all the time. And I forgot about that one. [00:20:29] Speaker B: I think the one you forgot about is the one I. I think you're. Is your number one. [00:20:33] Speaker A: The one I forgot about is Day One Again by Bon Iver. [00:20:37] Speaker B: No, I wouldn't have thought that. Carry on. [00:20:39] Speaker A: Unbelievable. It's a great music video and it's actually a very. Yeah. [00:20:43] Speaker B: Great age. [00:20:43] Speaker A: It's a very simple concept. Necessary in a way, but is basically, it's like obviously a bit of a. Bless you. Because the song. The song is just a stunning song, like I said, but so. And ironically, Jacob Lord is in it, but it's like a mock audition process to replace Bon Iver to be the next one. [00:21:02] Speaker B: Iver. But it's just like, oh, you show me this. [00:21:05] Speaker A: 4 year olds doing backflips. There's like an old man that looks like Rick Rubin. There's everyone. St. Vincent's in it. Who's the penguins? Mrs. I always forget her name. The one who's the mother in How I met your Mother. [00:21:15] Speaker B: Oh, not Linda Cardinalli. What's her name? [00:21:19] Speaker A: Is that not. [00:21:20] Speaker B: No, because that's the girl from. That's Hawkeye's Wife and from. [00:21:24] Speaker A: Yes, you're right. [00:21:24] Speaker B: Scooby Doo. Which isn't. What's her name? I almost don't want you to. I want to say Crispin. Crispin Miliotti. Oh, my gosh. What's that woman's name? [00:21:33] Speaker A: What's she called? What's she called. Read it out for US levels. Read it out for us. [00:21:35] Speaker B: Tracy McConnell. No, it's not her. Kristen Milotti. Okay. I was close because I said I. [00:21:41] Speaker A: Can read, by the way. [00:21:43] Speaker B: Kristin Melotti. That's it. I was close. [00:21:45] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. She's in it. And obviously Jacob Lord is in it, but it's just a really heartfelt. [00:21:51] Speaker B: Is that your number one, then? [00:21:52] Speaker A: So I want to hear you. The only reason I'm not gonna say it is. [00:21:54] Speaker B: Okay. [00:21:55] Speaker A: Probably it is. I'm gonna say no because it was the same answer as Song of the Year. Thanks, Lilz. [00:22:00] Speaker B: Thanks for just blowing up. [00:22:01] Speaker A: Just zoomed right in on her face about 30 seconds later. Only because I want a different answer for each one. [00:22:07] Speaker B: All right, go on, let me hear it. [00:22:08] Speaker A: So for a music video, I wish. [00:22:10] Speaker B: I went, but I know. You know what? Next year round number 2026, I'm coming with, like, four answers for each. [00:22:15] Speaker A: That's fair. I went, I'm annoying myself. [00:22:20] Speaker B: Yeah, go on. [00:22:21] Speaker A: POV from clips and Tyler Creators music video. [00:22:23] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:22:24] Speaker A: Was unbelievable. [00:22:25] Speaker B: It was. [00:22:25] Speaker A: And it's very like, all three of them are on a table, like, conversing. [00:22:28] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:22:29] Speaker A: And then when it gets to Tyler's verse, he's, like, going mad. [00:22:31] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:22:32] Speaker A: But there's, like, creepy animatronics on stage, and they're like almost like a Phoenix Nights. [00:22:36] Speaker B: I almost put that as mine. [00:22:37] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:22:38] Speaker B: When I was looking through and going through music videos last year. Ye. Then I went, I can't, because I remember what it is. [00:22:42] Speaker A: Yeah. But then my. Ironically, my. The one I'm torn between was the other clips one, the Soviet one in front of that mansion. And it was all Sky's time lapse. And it's just so good. [00:22:52] Speaker B: Right. [00:22:52] Speaker A: But then I did want to say that Mathematics song. [00:22:55] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. [00:22:56] Speaker A: Do you remember the video? [00:22:57] Speaker B: I thought that's the one you were going to say. [00:22:58] Speaker A: It was. It was. [00:22:59] Speaker B: There's a lot of different time going past and then all in the kitchen. [00:23:02] Speaker A: The way the story's been told Kind of jagged and. [00:23:04] Speaker B: Yeah, it's great. [00:23:06] Speaker A: While there's like, time lapse stuff, I love that kind of thing. [00:23:08] Speaker B: Really well done. Really well done. [00:23:10] Speaker A: I really liked Lying from Lolcana, but again, I didn't want to answer that because that was for Song of the Year as well. And then my last one was, which I knew you weren't a fan of the song, which kind of blows me away. This one's a bit of a cheat because the song came out 2025 but the video only came out two weeks ago and it's chapter 16 by Kano and Dave. [00:23:26] Speaker B: Oh, I'd have to remember the one. [00:23:27] Speaker A: Where they're like conversing. [00:23:30] Speaker B: No, I don't. [00:23:31] Speaker A: See, when the Dave album came out and you said you didn't rate this tune and I was like, I'm surprised. [00:23:37] Speaker B: Wait, the one with Kano? Yeah. [00:23:38] Speaker A: James produced it. [00:23:40] Speaker B: Don't love it. [00:23:40] Speaker A: And that blows me away because it's. [00:23:42] Speaker B: Like I don't love it. I don't. [00:23:45] Speaker A: I love Kane. [00:23:46] Speaker B: I don't never cared for P's and Q's. Never. [00:23:47] Speaker A: I don't like his big stuff because I'm not the biggest grime match wolf fan, which I know you are. Yeah. I like his way in high school. [00:23:55] Speaker B: But I just. [00:23:56] Speaker A: Teardrops and suck your mom and all them weird tunes he did. [00:23:59] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:23:59] Speaker A: Well, I love. But it was more the element of like the young messiah. [00:24:04] Speaker B: I like the story more than the song. I can get that. [00:24:06] Speaker A: And in the video they're obviously both talented actors in their own right. But the song kind of fades out to them doing it live and fades back in. And the whole video is the camera going right around the dinner table while the restaurant's moving around. It's just really simple but really cool. Really well delivered. And that because it's. Because the. The actual raps are so like a conversation. [00:24:31] Speaker B: Sure. [00:24:32] Speaker A: They're properly like having a conversation. [00:24:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:24:35] Speaker A: No, really good. [00:24:36] Speaker B: All of those are great. [00:24:38] Speaker A: Great. And again I feel like people are trying harder about me like what they're making again. [00:24:44] Speaker B: Well, think about when you were kid and you would sit and watch like those music video channels where they would only play music videos all day. [00:24:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:24:51] Speaker B: And they were just. It was a 200 budget. One location, two locations. [00:24:56] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:24:56] Speaker B: Just singing in. There was never these huge. I mean bar a couple because a few. As a kid I remember being great music videos, but. [00:25:02] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:25:03] Speaker B: But now it's not the same. [00:25:04] Speaker A: It's like a four minute movie. [00:25:06] Speaker B: That's exactly it. So Walid, do you want to ask me mine? [00:25:10] Speaker A: What was your favorite music video of the year? [00:25:12] Speaker B: Thank you very much for my clip when I made it up. Mine is one that I've shown you and you four seconds in went I already love it. And you won't remember. [00:25:21] Speaker A: Is it going to be Korean? [00:25:22] Speaker B: It is Korean Cortis. You know those like the guys that sound like. Thank you. The guys that sound like Travis Scott and they had the music video when there was like the cars smashing in slow motion and there was like multi layered things going in the background. And then there was a fisheye lens and there was loads, loads of stuff. [00:25:39] Speaker A: I loveish islands. [00:25:41] Speaker B: I know you do, but it was them dancing also. The song is so sick. [00:25:45] Speaker A: Nice. [00:25:46] Speaker B: But there's loads of other elements going on behind them. In front of them. [00:25:49] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:25:50] Speaker B: And then flips in color and stuff. It's a very you coded music video. It's a kind of one. If you had a limited budget, it's the video you would make. [00:25:57] Speaker A: Breaks my up. [00:25:58] Speaker B: And it's. And I remember showing you two of their videos and both you went already. [00:26:02] Speaker A: I'm in. [00:26:03] Speaker B: I'm sold. Yo, that's mine. [00:26:06] Speaker A: Cool. [00:26:06] Speaker B: I don't remember what had last year. If I had a cream on last year, which is easy because I think. [00:26:10] Speaker A: Mine was Drive from Scissor, which I'm not 100% sure because it was better still. [00:26:17] Speaker B: Maybe. I don't know. [00:26:19] Speaker A: I like a really simple video that's just like a movie. Yeah, I've noticed that just now. [00:26:23] Speaker B: Go on, what's next? [00:26:25] Speaker A: I'm gonna go for a best album. [00:26:27] Speaker B: Go on, do you wanna. Sam, what's Your best album? 25. There's. [00:26:33] Speaker A: There's a few again. [00:26:35] Speaker B: Go on. [00:26:35] Speaker A: I'm gonna give it to Daniel Caesar. [00:26:37] Speaker B: Son of Spurgeon, first. I don't think you liked it that much. [00:26:41] Speaker A: So the last time we actually had a proper conversation about was like the week it came out. And I remember the first listen, I was like, it's not really doing it for me. I realized and I bashed it and. [00:26:49] Speaker B: I'm like, oh, yeah, it's really good. [00:26:51] Speaker A: So much. [00:26:52] Speaker B: It's really good. [00:26:52] Speaker A: And obviously, as you know, he's one of my, like, he's one of my Mount Rushmores. Yeah, he always has been. Yeah. It's so good. The. The music videos from. Are so good. [00:27:01] Speaker B: The. [00:27:01] Speaker A: His SNL performance. Jimmy Fallon. Who knows? [00:27:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:27:05] Speaker A: It's just brilliant. His newest tiny desk. Oh my God. Have you seen it yet? [00:27:10] Speaker B: I have seen it. [00:27:11] Speaker A: So, so good. And obviously his one, his original one is still probably top five ever. [00:27:16] Speaker B: I love his original one with her. [00:27:19] Speaker A: So good. So the album is absolutely great. Bon Ivers, Sable Fable, whatever it's called. [00:27:25] Speaker B: Yes. [00:27:25] Speaker A: Obviously there was a few tunes on there that were in my top most listens. But the album, top to bottom, wasn't as good as Daniel Caesars. For me, Dijon's new album was really good as well. Kind of just reinventing the wheel again in my eyes. [00:27:39] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:27:40] Speaker A: So good. And also, I don't know how much DJ you actually listen to these days. But I said to Lilz's mum, I feel like it's got a lot of prints in there. [00:27:49] Speaker B: And there was one tune historically not the biggest Prince. [00:27:52] Speaker A: Yeah. I can take a leaf print. [00:27:54] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:27:56] Speaker A: But there's like this tune called Yamaha off the new album. I just more feel like if Prince was born now, this is the kind. [00:28:03] Speaker B: Of music you'd be making. [00:28:04] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. In that kind of sense. So I was. And Lilz's mum's obviously a big Prince fan and obviously the Clips album. [00:28:10] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:28:10] Speaker A: Was just unbelievable. And then what I couldn't not say considering it was my album. My music board entry for two episodes was Justin Bieber's Swag one and two. [00:28:20] Speaker B: I knew that would I honestly I was struggling because I went through Rolling Stones top hundred albums of last year because so many albums get released. I go, God, I forgo about that. So there's loads that was in that. I went, oh, I really liked that. I really liked that. [00:28:33] Speaker A: Olivia Dean's album was fantastic. [00:28:34] Speaker B: It was. That was in the list. They had that in there in the top 50. Obviously I would say for my. It's not what I've put but sorry. [00:28:40] Speaker A: To Cuz I thought you were going to say something more about it. I want to give Justin Bieber his flowers more. [00:28:46] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [00:28:46] Speaker A: Because I feel like he'd reinvented himself in an artist. And between those two albums we're talking like 44 songs. [00:28:52] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:28:53] Speaker A: And I'm not exaggerating when I say that well over nearly 40 of them are really, really good. [00:28:59] Speaker B: Which doesn't happen on a big album. [00:29:00] Speaker A: It doesn't happen on most albums. Never mind a 44 track album. Like I genuinely think 15 to 20 of them made my playlists. [00:29:08] Speaker B: That's a huge amount. Conversion is. Is very rare. [00:29:11] Speaker A: And even a year ago I wouldn't think that about Justin Bieber. [00:29:14] Speaker B: No, I think that's valid. [00:29:16] Speaker A: Continue. [00:29:17] Speaker B: I said for mine. There was also a lot of albums that came out last year that I really liked and there was a ton and I wasn't trying to do it of which album has the most songs that I listened to rather than just which one did. I was I surprised at the most because Daniel Caesar's Root of All Evil was my favorite from that album which I really liked that one. And I think there's so many in that album that I thought his singing's always great but the actual instruments and the melody, like there's a sitar in the end of that song that Is so gorgeous. And just the. I think the hook is just. Am I a man or a mouse? [00:29:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:29:50] Speaker B: Yeah. It's so catchy. [00:29:54] Speaker A: So good. [00:29:55] Speaker B: And then like the whole instrument. The whole instrument. Instrumental. Even at the end with the choir, the sitar and everything is just gorgeous. [00:30:04] Speaker A: And again, my goat. Bon Iver's all over that album. [00:30:07] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:30:07] Speaker A: What's Lilz? Please, will you get up? Daniel Caesar's son of Spurgeon. Because I can't remember. I'm terrible with the names on that album. Cause I've just been. [00:30:13] Speaker B: I'm terrible. Yeah. [00:30:14] Speaker A: But obviously he did Moon with Bon Iver, which is a brilliant song. But there's also another one that's something like Sins of a Father or Sins. [00:30:21] Speaker B: Of a. I think it's Sins of a Father. You're right. [00:30:24] Speaker A: Lilz is still typing Daniel Caesar. So it's a really good effort, love. And then obviously there was. Yeah. Who knows? I absolutely adored. Like I said, we can't have another clip of just me getting angry at Lilz for dead silence. But how has it took this long to get the track list? [00:30:41] Speaker B: I understand what you were asking me. [00:30:42] Speaker A: To do to get the track list up for Season for his new album. [00:30:47] Speaker B: You've kind of got all of his songs up. New album. [00:30:51] Speaker A: Just go on Spotify. [00:30:52] Speaker B: New album. Bon Iver. Spotify would have been a good place to go. [00:30:57] Speaker A: You just put Daniel Caesar songs. [00:30:59] Speaker B: Caesar. [00:30:59] Speaker A: You just put Daniel Caesar songs. Daniel Caesar. [00:31:01] Speaker B: Bon iv. [00:31:01] Speaker A: Daniel Caesar, Daniel Caesar New album track list. [00:31:04] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:31:04] Speaker A: That was actually not even that important now as well. I'm sorry. And I feel like I've got to keep the silence because I'm so. [00:31:21] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:31:21] Speaker A: Fantastic. [00:31:22] Speaker B: Right. Cool to kill it. So basically I've never said my answer yet. [00:31:25] Speaker A: Sorry, It's. [00:31:26] Speaker B: It was that. And it's also at the same level for very different reasons. Chance the Rapper's star line. Because I've always been interested. [00:31:33] Speaker A: You have? Yeah. Yeah. [00:31:35] Speaker B: Obviously. Apart from the big day, which was the sad day. Six years. It was. It's been six years since his last album. So we know all his fans were waiting on this for a long time. And he speak. And it's a much more like coloring book, which is one of my all time favorites, which I can't remember Kingston or Omo said was like that desert island disc. Absolutely. [00:31:57] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:31:57] Speaker B: I can't remember one of them said it was. And I said flawless pick. [00:32:01] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:32:01] Speaker B: Because it's. It would maybe be one of my. Because I love that album. Gospel hip hop. When they're married together. [00:32:06] Speaker A: Well, everyone was on it. [00:32:07] Speaker B: It really was. Kanye, Chancellor, Afrance, two chains, Lil Wayne, Kirk, Franklin, Giants. [00:32:13] Speaker A: Oh, gosh. [00:32:14] Speaker B: So there was a lot riding on Starline and he's kind of. Instead of doing a big commercial, big pop, loud album like he did with the Big Day, it's a much more stripped back because his bars have always been what his calling card was that because his voice is so good, but the way he ties stuff together is so clever. And there's a lot of heavy themes he's talking about in this album. [00:32:35] Speaker A: Right. Yeah. [00:32:36] Speaker B: So it's a much more serious. Which I think is the only way to go after a flop is you have to go serious. You can't go huge radio. [00:32:43] Speaker A: Well, you gotta do what you're good at. [00:32:44] Speaker B: You gotta do what you're good at. [00:32:45] Speaker A: Take it back, put it back. [00:32:46] Speaker B: So I've put. [00:32:47] Speaker A: Starline was mine and ironically, I haven't listened to any of that. [00:32:50] Speaker B: Go listen. [00:32:51] Speaker A: I will actually give it a listen. Scarred from the last one. [00:32:53] Speaker B: Yeah, that'll do it. Yeah, that'll do it. Anyway, next one, I'm up to cultural moments. [00:32:59] Speaker A: Cultural moments. [00:33:01] Speaker B: There's a ton here. Yeah. I struggled a bit at 90. [00:33:04] Speaker A: I struggled a bit. Well, I say I struggled a bit. I've got. I stopped at 4. [00:33:07] Speaker B: I want what mine is. I'll go first then, because I assume mine is one of your four. [00:33:11] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:33:12] Speaker B: Cultural moment of the year. 25. It's got to be King Kendrick's Super Bowl. I feel like that's the only option because it was the. It's the final chapter of a whole spring and summer of back and forth, and it's almost the. The dagger into the. In the beef of. [00:33:28] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:33:28] Speaker B: Yeah. Because how else could you. A lot of these times, they never get resolved. It's always just who had the bigger songs. Wins, technically. But there's never a clear winner if you go super bowl and then you also get Grammy nominated in, like, four categories from one tune. Because I think not like us was nominated for, like, song of the year. [00:33:48] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:33:48] Speaker B: For hip hop song. No, it wasn't. Nah. Euphoria, probably. [00:33:53] Speaker A: Yeah, I agree. Yeah. I made the Grahams. I always had a soft spot for. [00:33:57] Speaker B: I mean, loads of them are great, but anyway, I would say it's probably going to be the Super Bowl. It's a cultural moment of the year. What have you got? [00:34:02] Speaker A: Well, that was in my list. I kind of got a couple of funny ones. Really? [00:34:07] Speaker B: Let me hear them. [00:34:08] Speaker A: Well, I'd say I'll tell a lot. I've got two serious Serious. Ish ones and two funny ones. [00:34:13] Speaker B: Go on. [00:34:13] Speaker A: The Katy Perry thing, going to space was just. [00:34:15] Speaker B: Oh, that's a good one of the. [00:34:17] Speaker A: Most surreal moments of my adult life. [00:34:18] Speaker B: Yeah, that's a good one. [00:34:19] Speaker A: Considering how much forced it was onto us. [00:34:22] Speaker B: Sure. [00:34:22] Speaker A: As news. And everybody without fail was like, okay, one, that could have maybe not even happened. [00:34:28] Speaker B: Sure. [00:34:29] Speaker A: And two, what are we doing? [00:34:30] Speaker B: Sure. [00:34:31] Speaker A: And it was laughable. And even just when they landed and like Jeff Bezos opens the door and then panics and shuts the door because they want a big moment. And then Katy Perry's kissing the ground like she's been not been. She's basically been in airplanes for longer than that. [00:34:42] Speaker B: Yeah. Also she said, I'm now an astronaut, but I'm sure people said she didn't even go too. She went on like the outer atmosphere. You're not in space. [00:34:51] Speaker A: No. [00:34:52] Speaker B: You went on the border of Earth. [00:34:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:34:54] Speaker B: You're in Earth's back garden. You're not in the next street. Do you know what I mean? [00:34:57] Speaker A: She's a stupid. That's what she is. My other funny one, the impossible happened this year. Liam, go on. Caught the ache from Sydney Sweeney. [00:35:08] Speaker B: You. [00:35:09] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:35:09] Speaker B: Sam Capper Dick from Sydney Sweeney. Yeah. Do tell. [00:35:12] Speaker A: Top my whole past list. Go on. Gone, mate. [00:35:14] Speaker B: Why? [00:35:15] Speaker A: Loves Trump. [00:35:16] Speaker B: Does she? [00:35:17] Speaker A: She loves Trump. She loves Trump. That whole jeans ad was weird. [00:35:21] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:35:22] Speaker A: I wasn't asked about her first because. [00:35:23] Speaker B: I thought, well, the bad thing is I've never seen this ad, but I've. [00:35:25] Speaker A: Just heard so much from it and. And I thought, I mean, it's not a cancel culture thing. So it was more just a case of, like, I didn't really. I don't. I wasn't asked. But then when she was. Had an interview and was asked about it. [00:35:39] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:35:40] Speaker A: Don't like that reaction. Didn't like that reaction. [00:35:42] Speaker B: You don't like her standing on a business? [00:35:44] Speaker A: No, because don't get me wrong, Jeremy Corbyn. Love Jeremy Corbyn. Weird. I never thought I'd go a segue from Jeremy Corbyn. [00:35:52] Speaker B: How is Sydney, Jerry? [00:35:53] Speaker A: We'll get. [00:35:54] Speaker B: Connect him. [00:35:54] Speaker A: We'll get there. He's his. He would have been the next Prime Minister if he'd have humored stupid questions when people were going, why would you not nuclear bomb Iraq? He'd just be like, not answering that stupid question. [00:36:06] Speaker B: And people like, see, no, they were never gonna. [00:36:09] Speaker A: It wouldn't rise to it. Even if you had the votes. [00:36:11] Speaker B: They wouldn't allow it. [00:36:12] Speaker A: Yeah, it wouldn't. He wouldn't rise to stupid questions. He wouldn't play the game. Which was in my eyes, the best bit about him. But was the downfall of him as a politics. [00:36:20] Speaker B: What turns I got to do with Sydney. Sweden. Right, Go on. [00:36:23] Speaker A: When you get asked in an interview, Liam. [00:36:25] Speaker B: Sure. [00:36:26] Speaker A: That thing you did, were you trying to be racist? You would just say no. [00:36:29] Speaker B: Yeah. Fair. Fair. [00:36:31] Speaker A: It was like she was trying not to rise to it, but instead she was doubling down. She was like. I don't know what I meant to do, but she was kind of being like, I know what I meant. [00:36:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:36:38] Speaker A: And it was very. As if she was looking at her white supremacist mates down the lens going. [00:36:41] Speaker B: I got you guys. [00:36:42] Speaker A: I got you guys. And I thought, great. Got the egg. Big time got the egg. [00:36:45] Speaker B: That's interesting, that. [00:36:47] Speaker A: Big time. Big time got the egg. Don't get me wrong. I will re. Watch not. I'm sorry. I will finally watch all of Euphoria to watch the new series when she's an older model. Because I like research. [00:36:57] Speaker B: Because the story seems good. [00:36:58] Speaker A: The story seems really good. [00:37:00] Speaker B: I gotta check it out. [00:37:00] Speaker A: You know, I really like Jacob Elordi, but. But yeah, I fell out with her. So when we meet, I'm not gonna lips her. [00:37:06] Speaker B: Oh, you're not gonna lips her there. Cause she's obviously gonna wanna Ellipse you. But you're not. [00:37:10] Speaker A: No. Each to their own and everything. But I'm disappointed. [00:37:13] Speaker B: Fair. Did not think. I honestly would never have guessed. [00:37:16] Speaker A: Oh, just Lil's dangling her keys in front of the microphone. [00:37:19] Speaker B: Go on. [00:37:20] Speaker A: Are you going? You can. [00:37:23] Speaker B: If he asks you the question. Fuck this shit about. [00:37:27] Speaker A: All right, love. Bye. Bye. [00:37:28] Speaker B: See you later. Don't forget to lock the door on the way out. [00:37:30] Speaker A: Yeah, please. I had two more she's gonna go for. [00:37:36] Speaker B: She could have gone over the Sotus Day. [00:37:38] Speaker A: Lilza's crawling. The worst bit, Liam, is you get so distracted by her. When I try and move on. [00:37:45] Speaker B: I really do. It's hard to. [00:37:47] Speaker A: Yeah, you said bye. You can go now. [00:37:49] Speaker B: See you later. [00:37:50] Speaker A: Okay. [00:37:50] Speaker B: Other cultural moments. Go on. [00:37:52] Speaker A: Yeah. So I think Zoran Mandani. I can never pronounce his name right completely. [00:37:56] Speaker B: Myself. Zoran Mandani. Yeah. [00:37:58] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:37:59] Speaker B: That is a big one. Yeah, that's a big one. [00:38:01] Speaker A: It wasn't just the cultural significance of it. [00:38:03] Speaker B: No, that's huge. [00:38:03] Speaker A: Which is obviously huge. It was also just like in a world where politicians and anyone in Hollywood and Western media is just getting caught diddling kids in la. France. [00:38:15] Speaker B: Yeah. Like the last mayor was Mayor Romeo. [00:38:16] Speaker A: Exactly. The thing that they Thought they'd caught him doing. It was just. Do you remember them? They were like, this is so embarrassing. He used to rap in college and it was just videos of him like rapping. [00:38:25] Speaker B: And it wasn't bad. [00:38:26] Speaker A: It wasn't even bad. He's like, this is sick. [00:38:28] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:38:28] Speaker A: But my favorite moment, one of my favorite moments of the year was him in the White House when Trump actually really liked him. [00:38:34] Speaker B: He did. He said he quite liked him. Yeah, yeah. You know what it is because he's. [00:38:36] Speaker A: Got so many ass charisma, doesn't he? [00:38:38] Speaker B: He does. And it's someone who's actually standing on their own. [00:38:41] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:38:41] Speaker B: Who won't allow him to be bullied. [00:38:42] Speaker A: It was where there was like, you said he was a fascist. You still think he's a fascist. And before he was even answered, Donald Trump was like, you can say it. And he was like, yep. Oh, I do. [00:38:49] Speaker B: Fair. [00:38:50] Speaker A: I was like, that was fantastic. [00:38:51] Speaker B: Fair. Gotta respect it. [00:38:52] Speaker A: That was it. And I did put Jimmy Kimmel going off air. [00:38:54] Speaker B: Oh, that was a big deal. [00:38:56] Speaker A: Because for like two weeks I thought there's been. We're getting a bit squeaky bum time and just world shit at the moment. We know we're not a political podcast as much as. If you let me, I would just fucking do it. We could do it, but. But for a good two weeks, I thought we are actually living in a dictatorship. Like the fact that the presidents just took off the biggest shows. Because he just don't like him. [00:39:19] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:39:19] Speaker A: And I really. It would. It was working. It worked, didn't it? Until everybody kind of came together. [00:39:24] Speaker B: I'm so surprised that he's not tried to whack a tariff on NBC. Because every week on snl, and I mean every week, one of their castmates, cast members, does a Trump in the opening sketch does a political one where they just go like, destroy it. [00:39:40] Speaker A: Absolutely. [00:39:41] Speaker B: And I'm so surprised. I mean, he said the shit. Even though he ironically hosted a million years ago, which is so weird. [00:39:46] Speaker A: Trump did. [00:39:46] Speaker B: Trump hosted SNL forever ago. And so one of the cast members at the time said it was interesting. Cause Trump was the only person he'd ever met where one. He didn't think he could read because he would not. Because honestly, you don't have to remember anything. You just. You read the cue card, they write the jokes. You read the cards. You don't have to remember anything. [00:40:06] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:40:06] Speaker B: And they were like, he just would not do it. And he'd be trying to say to Lorne, who's been running the show for 50 years now. So let's do it this way or I'm gonna do all that. And they were like, no, that's not how it works. And I said, the only person he's ever met who didn't like music, he just doesn't like it. It's so strange that people don't like certain types, but he doesn't like certain. [00:40:27] Speaker A: Types of people's skin color. [00:40:29] Speaker B: No, he doesn't. [00:40:32] Speaker A: Weirdo. I mean, the other thing is obviously, like, when you say that, I'm surprised he's not put tariffs or canceled shows because they bully him and stuff like that. [00:40:39] Speaker B: Sure. [00:40:40] Speaker A: We are also talking about a man that as of recording yesterday, has basically said, if anyone touches Greenland, we'll go to war. He said that his primary concern isn't peace anymore because he ended eight wars and didn't get the Peace Prize. [00:40:54] Speaker B: No. And then. Did you see this? I only saw this. [00:40:56] Speaker A: Did she give it him? [00:40:57] Speaker B: Someone gave him hers. Insane. [00:41:00] Speaker A: But we're talking about a man who's just said, fine, I won't do peace. Because you didn't say thank you. [00:41:04] Speaker B: It's absurd. There was a joke that Michael Che did and I said I thought was really funny. They were like someone offering. Getting someone else's Peace Prize is so insane. It's like going to the house and they say, help yourself to anything you want. And you bang their wife. Bang on. Because it's such an absurd thing to do to take someone else's Peace Prize when you're actively in a war. [00:41:27] Speaker A: And we're still fairly convinced that it was because wasn't the. [00:41:31] Speaker B: The. [00:41:32] Speaker A: The woman who won it? Wasn't she a Venezuelan politician? [00:41:35] Speaker B: Yeah, it doesn't count because that's why. [00:41:36] Speaker A: I didn't like it. Yeah, exactly. [00:41:37] Speaker B: It doesn't count anyway. Yeah, yeah, it doesn't count. [00:41:39] Speaker A: But that's why he didn't like it. [00:41:40] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:41:41] Speaker A: Because he wanted beef with Venezuela anyway. Because he wants the rovers. It doesn't matter. [00:41:44] Speaker B: Doesn't matter. We're not doing it. [00:41:46] Speaker A: We'll move on. [00:41:46] Speaker B: It's not political statement. [00:41:48] Speaker A: Absolutely. I'm gonna do best sports moment next. [00:41:50] Speaker B: Why have we not got anti Semite of the year? [00:41:53] Speaker A: Because it'd be you. [00:41:54] Speaker B: Yeah. It would carry on me and Nick Fuentes. Yeah. [00:41:59] Speaker A: Best sports moment. [00:42:00] Speaker B: So for me, let's hear it. I would love. If yours isn't a football one, it's like snooker one. [00:42:05] Speaker A: Wrong. [00:42:06] Speaker B: Wrong. [00:42:07] Speaker A: It is. Man United Europa League come back against Leon. [00:42:10] Speaker B: Tell me about it. [00:42:11] Speaker A: Which was all in vain because we got to the Final and lost. Anyway. [00:42:14] Speaker B: Where are they from? [00:42:15] Speaker A: France. They're from Leon. [00:42:17] Speaker B: Oh, Leon, France. [00:42:18] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:42:18] Speaker B: Makes sense. [00:42:19] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:42:20] Speaker B: Who plays for them? [00:42:23] Speaker A: Lacazette. Do you know Alexandra Lacazette? [00:42:25] Speaker B: No. [00:42:25] Speaker A: Do you not remember they used to call him Obama Blood Clot Z. No, that was Obama Blood Clot Young. And then there was. No. There was. There was another one for Lacazette. I can't remember it. No. And Bueno was the United player. [00:42:35] Speaker B: Oh, carry on, then. [00:42:36] Speaker A: But the funny thing is, considering anyone who's fans of this podcast for a while knows that we met on Verdansk. The last time we played Vedansk, when it came back a few months ago, we did. It was me, you and Dave and we. I had it on my laptop at the same time. And I don't know if you're. If it's gonna ring any bells now. If you're just screaming for 10 minutes because we were. We were tunnel up. [00:42:58] Speaker B: I do remember this. [00:42:59] Speaker A: Yeah. We were tunnel up and then we were four, two down after 90 minutes. [00:43:05] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:43:07] Speaker A: And there was a. I can't remember. I think I had it written down. There was probably like five, six minutes added. Extra time. We scored four goals. [00:43:14] Speaker B: That's big. [00:43:15] Speaker A: It was. I think there's four goals in extra time, and it wasn't extra time, it was injury time. [00:43:20] Speaker B: So, like, four goals in how many minutes then? [00:43:22] Speaker A: Not even 10. [00:43:23] Speaker B: That's pretty sick. [00:43:24] Speaker A: So we won five, four. [00:43:25] Speaker B: That's a pretty bad game. [00:43:27] Speaker A: Seven, six on aggregate. It was just unbelievable. Unbelievable and like the best moment at Old Trafford that anyone's seen for years. [00:43:35] Speaker B: For a long time. [00:43:36] Speaker A: For absolutely years. And even though it was all in vain, and we don't have much to shout about anymore. [00:43:40] Speaker B: Get your trophies where you can. [00:43:41] Speaker A: That was by far the best moment of being a United fan this year. And the other one I put was PSG beating intermodal on 5 nil in the Champions League final, because that's unheard of. [00:43:48] Speaker B: PSG beating who? Intermom. [00:43:50] Speaker A: The Champions League final. PSG had never won the Champions League before and they'd been a bit of a meme in the sport of football. [00:43:55] Speaker B: They've got Mbappe and like loads of. [00:43:57] Speaker A: Other superstars, they don't have Mbappe or Neymar or Messi anymore. [00:44:00] Speaker B: I knew they'd have Messi, but they didn't have Neymar either. [00:44:03] Speaker A: No. Mbappe went to Real Madrid last year, which is funny, because he's been trying to win the Champions League. PSG for years, went to Real Madrid to win it every Year and then PSG won it. Oh, PSG never win it. And the funny thing is, basically Luis Enrique, who's ex Barcelona manager, It's amazing. Walked into psg, got rid of all the egos and got them playing well and they fucking gone and won the Champions League. [00:44:23] Speaker B: Yeah, that is surprising. [00:44:24] Speaker A: But just picture like, I know you're not a football fan, but winning the Champions league? [00:44:27] Speaker B: No, sure. [00:44:27] Speaker A: Five nil. [00:44:28] Speaker B: Yeah, that's big. [00:44:29] Speaker A: It was like three nil in like the first 20 minutes or something like that. I can't remember. [00:44:33] Speaker B: It should never be that close. I mean that. It should be. [00:44:35] Speaker A: Yeah, like really good as well. [00:44:38] Speaker B: They were just far better. [00:44:39] Speaker A: Dicked them they fingers right up the church. Spun it round, gutted them out, pulled their organs out. It was unbelievable. [00:44:47] Speaker B: That feels like a valid. A valid. What's the word? Yeah, fair. [00:44:52] Speaker A: What's yours? [00:44:53] Speaker B: Mine is obviously a ball. [00:44:54] Speaker A: Oh, that's what people say. Swish. Sorry? [00:44:59] Speaker B: Swish. Yes. [00:45:00] Speaker A: Nothing but wet. [00:45:01] Speaker B: I actually googled overall sports, biggest sports moments because I thought, I don't need to go with my sport. What was a big story I forgot. [00:45:08] Speaker A: About and like me, did you go, I don't give a. About darts, don't give a fuck about cricket, about rugby. [00:45:12] Speaker B: Not only that, I don't understand the significance of some of them. [00:45:15] Speaker A: Yeah, absolutely. [00:45:15] Speaker B: When they're like, oh, Wales beat New Zealand, 900 nil. No rugby, I don't really. I mean, sure, that sounds impressive. [00:45:22] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:45:22] Speaker B: Obviously that didn't happen. I just made that up. [00:45:24] Speaker A: But my one, I realized I didn't. [00:45:26] Speaker B: Know there was one in my sport. I was like, obviously that's it. [00:45:28] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:45:29] Speaker B: It's Luca getting traded for Anthony Davis. [00:45:32] Speaker A: That was a big swap. I knew that. [00:45:34] Speaker B: Which they said was the most in 76 years of the NBA is likely the craziest swaps ever happened. [00:45:40] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:45:40] Speaker B: And I saw someone trying to put it in football terms and they were like, if you traded, if City let go of prime, Harland prime in his career, White boy Spagsman of goals and they swapped him for a guy of a different position. Who is the most injury pro, who's the most injury prone prem player who was once good, who's once good but never even considered a top. Top player. [00:46:04] Speaker A: Oh, I don't know about not considered a top player. [00:46:06] Speaker B: I mean he's got a title, but he's not. He would be maybe in the top five. [00:46:10] Speaker A: Anthony Davis is top 50, is he not? [00:46:12] Speaker B: He's top 75, but he's coming in at 75. [00:46:15] Speaker A: Really? [00:46:15] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:46:16] Speaker A: Yeah. There's loads of players if they didn't get injured. [00:46:19] Speaker B: It's basically the equivalent of city trading away their star boy for someone who's always injured. [00:46:25] Speaker A: And now what was the reason for it all then? [00:46:27] Speaker B: So the reason was that they think that the head owner of the Mavs was not enjoying his relationship with Luka. And Luca Lack ran the team because he's a generational talent. [00:46:39] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:46:39] Speaker B: Who's only like 26. He's younger than you. [00:46:41] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:46:42] Speaker B: And he's likely gonna. Was gonna be there his whole career, and he wasn't liking how he had more power, so he let him go. And obviously, I've seen players talk about they thought it was a prank because they were like, no team would make such a ludicrous trade because now the Lakers won, like, a massive role and now you've just given an agent. LeBron. [00:47:00] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:47:00] Speaker B: Arguably the best. One of the best players in the league. [00:47:03] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:47:04] Speaker B: And the Mavs, he. He got injured on, like, his second game, and he's been on and off injured, on and off injured since. He's injured now and they're now looking to trade him away. So they basically gave away their whole asset, their biggest asset for someone crap. Who now they're not even going to get, like, anywhere near the same worth for. Because who would want to take Anthony Davis? So that is a huge sports moment. Because it's absurd to think, and that's the best example I can think of, that City would trade Haaland for a bum who's going to sit on the bench injured. And then now they want to let go of him and they've lost all leveraging. [00:47:39] Speaker A: So they're going to get rid of Anthony Davis now anyway. [00:47:41] Speaker B: Yeah. They're shopping him, but who on earth would want to buy him? Do you know what I mean? So that was my sports moment of the year. Yeah. Let's get. Let's carry on. Let's carry on. [00:47:49] Speaker A: So I believe we are past all of that. [00:47:53] Speaker B: I'm up to the ones I've got left. Yeah, you tell me. [00:47:56] Speaker A: Just fill with episode or fill with moment. [00:47:57] Speaker B: Fill with episode, moment and meme. [00:47:59] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:47:59] Speaker B: In that order. Do you want to go first? [00:48:01] Speaker A: Let's go meme first. Because it'd be nice to end on. [00:48:04] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, go on. We'll end it on that. It's a good idea. Go on. What's your favorite meme of the year? [00:48:09] Speaker A: I. I remember this last time where. [00:48:11] Speaker B: I was like, you're not chronically online like that, but you are. You miss a lot of trends for Some reason. Not even that. [00:48:17] Speaker A: It's just like. I can't recall any of that. My head's mashed. [00:48:21] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:48:22] Speaker A: So I don't like any of these ones I put. [00:48:25] Speaker B: Oh, you've got multiple for this as well. Go on. [00:48:27] Speaker A: Not really. Yeah, go on. [00:48:28] Speaker B: I'm hearing six. [00:48:29] Speaker A: Seven is the meme of the year that's been in the ditch. [00:48:32] Speaker B: I mean, it is technically the meme of the year. [00:48:33] Speaker A: I've never even watched it. Never even seen it. [00:48:35] Speaker B: It's not the case. Nothing you watch. [00:48:37] Speaker A: No, there's a. It was a. [00:48:38] Speaker B: Wasn't. There's a song. I don't know. [00:48:40] Speaker A: I had seen the thing. 100 men versus guerrilla was pretty. [00:48:43] Speaker B: That's a good. We spoke about on the show. We did. [00:48:44] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. Which I enjoyed more because. [00:48:47] Speaker B: Yeah, I like that one. [00:48:48] Speaker A: The memes weren't technically very good, but it's more the conversation about it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I can't believe how many people were just thinking wildly different things about that. [00:48:58] Speaker B: Well, someone asked, like, a gorillazoo expert and he went, it would actually take less men than you think. He said they would need to be fearless because the first getting mashed are getting pulled apart. But he said about 45 would do it to overwhelm it, really. But he said they would need to be fearless because if they're not going in just blazing, they'll have no chance. So realistically, it's more than 40, 45 men, but also, what men are we talking about 40 Rochdalers or 40, like, Samoans, do you know what I mean? 10 Samoans will do it. [00:49:32] Speaker A: Yeah, that's true. [00:49:33] Speaker B: 10 Samoan school children. [00:49:35] Speaker A: They'll do it. [00:49:36] Speaker B: Do you know what I mean? [00:49:37] Speaker A: Yeah, exactly. [00:49:37] Speaker B: They'll do it. That was a good one. [00:49:39] Speaker A: I really enjoyed the AI images of Trump being super gay. [00:49:42] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:49:43] Speaker A: You know, when all the Epstein stuff was coming out. [00:49:45] Speaker B: Yeah. There was a lot of him, like, kissing Netanyahu, which is really what's going on anyway. [00:49:48] Speaker A: Exactly. I really loved that. I enjoyed some of the Katy Perry space memes, the Donald Trump and Elon Musk feud. I got memed up quite a bit. I thoroughly enjoyed many memes of our good old friend Charlie Kirk. [00:50:07] Speaker B: You know what mine is? Charlie Kirk faces. Cause I've seen. You've seen it in every comment section. It's crazy. That's what your legacy has been put to where if you go on a comment section now, it's I Spice his face on it. The Michael Jordan meme when he's doing that, his face on it. And there's just no. Have you seen. There's the one with Tony Stark Infinity in an endgame. You know, he turns like this. [00:50:34] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:50:34] Speaker B: And he looks at Charlie Kirk's face. His face just seems to fit flawlessly on every meme, and it gets replaced. And that's what. [00:50:43] Speaker A: The Internet's just done its thing, and it's sort of. [00:50:46] Speaker B: He's now more famous than ever, but, like Wolverine. And it'll just be his face. Yeah. [00:50:51] Speaker A: And his wife's prancing around in, like. [00:50:54] Speaker B: Well, no, she's. [00:50:55] Speaker A: Leather trousers. And she's. [00:50:56] Speaker B: She's already. You know, she's pregnant. She felt pregnant. The timeline for it is right after he died. But also. Yeah, not also with that, but she is a Mossad spy. But we're moving on. [00:51:08] Speaker A: Absolutely. But we'll not go into that. [00:51:09] Speaker B: Yeah. I want to try and get my platform. [00:51:12] Speaker A: So was that yours, then? [00:51:13] Speaker B: It is. Charlie Kirk Faces is exactly what I. [00:51:15] Speaker A: Wrote when you decided to get my platform deplatformed. I saw something the other day. This is super rogue. I don't even care where you are. [00:51:19] Speaker B: Come on. [00:51:20] Speaker A: There was a guy saying. A comedian saying that he saw. He read Jackie Chan's autobiography. I didn't know this. Did you know Jackie Chan was a terrible dad? [00:51:28] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. No. He's got a lesbian daughter who he's estranged with because he does not rock with the lgbtq. [00:51:36] Speaker A: I didn't know he was a huge alcoholic. And this guy was talking about. He was like, look, having a dad that beat you would have been. [00:51:43] Speaker B: I already know where the cheek got. [00:51:45] Speaker A: It would have been an uphill battle when it comes to fighting. [00:51:47] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:51:50] Speaker A: If your dad was Jackie Chan and he comes on and goes, bo. And then this guy, when he was like, I'm not gonna do the accent because I'm afraid of success. And he was like, boy, come here and bring me two filing cabinets and a reverse ladder. I'm gonna show you. I'm gonna show you. [00:52:05] Speaker B: That's so funny. A reverse ladder. [00:52:07] Speaker A: Oh, so good. [00:52:08] Speaker B: Oh, I'm afraid of success. [00:52:09] Speaker A: I'm not gonna do the voice because I'm afraid of success. [00:52:12] Speaker B: That's really good. Yeah. [00:52:13] Speaker A: It's completely wrong. [00:52:14] Speaker B: That's really good. Yeah. So those are mine. [00:52:16] Speaker A: So should we go for. [00:52:18] Speaker B: Go on. [00:52:18] Speaker A: What was your favorite feel with episode of the year? Because we. I don't. I don't think you realize we pumped out a lot more than you think. [00:52:23] Speaker B: I actually did think, like, so I thought we put, like, four episodes last year. Sorry. [00:52:27] Speaker A: You always do, but we didn't we. [00:52:28] Speaker B: Just put up more than double figures. My favorites was wags and dogs. [00:52:32] Speaker A: Oh. [00:52:33] Speaker B: The reason me was because that was a good one. We had an audience for. My dog was circulating, jumping off everything. And I'm so annoyed it wasn't on video properly. [00:52:41] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:52:41] Speaker B: And also it's when we did the seven UK Wonders. [00:52:44] Speaker A: Love that. [00:52:44] Speaker B: Which I thought was a really good segment. We both had some really good nostalgic. So it was a good nostalgic one. There was a lot of laughs in it. So if you've not heard it, go back and listen. And also it was the fact my dog just kept walking around or then she would walk into shot while you'd be talking, look at you and you give her a stroke and then she'd dart off out of frame. Great episode. [00:53:02] Speaker A: And it was just that for the viewers we were just like looked bewildered. And she's doing the zoomies. [00:53:07] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:53:08] Speaker A: Running, doing a circle, jumping over the sofas. [00:53:10] Speaker B: Over the sofas. Cause she could leap. [00:53:12] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [00:53:12] Speaker B: She would jump and leap over two family sized sofas. [00:53:16] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. Big time. [00:53:17] Speaker B: It was very good. It was a good episode. A lot of laughs. [00:53:19] Speaker A: Fantastic. Well, I'm glad you said that because I thought the same. [00:53:23] Speaker B: Go on. [00:53:24] Speaker A: But I thought hopefully he's gonna say that because it was his dog. I put the live episode. [00:53:29] Speaker B: I thought you would. And I was tempted. [00:53:31] Speaker A: Good. [00:53:31] Speaker B: So I could say it, that the feel weird moment is the live show because you've got feel weird episode. But for the episode itself, I put it for live on because it was a great episode. [00:53:41] Speaker A: Obviously getting to do an episode for an audience of 50 of our. [00:53:44] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:53:44] Speaker A: Was just fun anyway. [00:53:46] Speaker B: And also we. We picked doing the his and hers. [00:53:49] Speaker A: The All Star Mr. Mrs. People sending questions in. [00:53:51] Speaker B: People sending questions. And I think the segments we did. [00:53:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:53:54] Speaker B: It was a really light fun because as much as people would enjoy us sitting, talking about whatever. [00:53:58] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:53:58] Speaker B: It's more fun when there's a game or some element. So it was a great episode in. [00:54:04] Speaker A: That sense as well. It's also cool because it's like when we started this, that was one thing we said we wanted to do. [00:54:08] Speaker B: We did. We did. [00:54:09] Speaker A: We did it. [00:54:10] Speaker B: We did. [00:54:10] Speaker A: Good for us. [00:54:11] Speaker B: Yes, we did. Put yourself on back. [00:54:12] Speaker A: And obviously as I saw. So as an episode, I mean I walked up. The rest of the event was amazing. As an episode that was still really enjoyable. [00:54:19] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:54:19] Speaker A: I had a different experience to what we do when it's just ironically us now because Liz has had to go. [00:54:23] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. No, I would say that was Definitely mine as well. Just showed that obviously in the live show. Obviously sold a ton of garms. [00:54:31] Speaker A: Nearly a grand. [00:54:32] Speaker B: A grand's worth of clothes is huge. [00:54:34] Speaker A: We sold two third of the clothes and we had way too many clothes. [00:54:38] Speaker B: We had a lot of clothes. [00:54:39] Speaker A: So much. [00:54:40] Speaker B: Even still, there's stuff. Obviously we're talking about our next one now. [00:54:42] Speaker A: Yeah. We've topped back up a bit. [00:54:43] Speaker B: But like, I mean, there's also all the colorways. Heads of shirts that were very successful. [00:54:49] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:54:50] Speaker B: But now in different colorways. Have I got a stone? No, because this was done in orange and red. [00:54:55] Speaker A: Yep. [00:54:55] Speaker B: And now we've got a purple and pink one, which I think is nicer. [00:54:58] Speaker A: Spoilers. [00:54:59] Speaker B: So spoilers. And there is a theme that we've got in mind for the next collection which isn't going to be revealed as of yet. Yeah. So. But there's clues. There's actual visual clues in the frame of where you're watching this. [00:55:12] Speaker A: If you think about it, I'm confused myself now. [00:55:15] Speaker B: How you're confused. [00:55:16] Speaker A: I'm probably just being a mongo John. Go one, go. [00:55:18] Speaker B: You're forgetting what I'm talking about. [00:55:19] Speaker A: Anyway, so I'm gonna say best Feel Weird moment. [00:55:22] Speaker B: Go on. Midfield moment. [00:55:23] Speaker A: So obviously for me, anyway, that's just the overarching umbrella of Feel Weird Studios. [00:55:29] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [00:55:30] Speaker A: And it was the Feel Weird Festival. [00:55:32] Speaker B: That makes sense. Yeah. [00:55:34] Speaker A: Because it was a very proud day of. We had 12 artists. [00:55:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:37] Speaker A: Every single one of them has used or. And benefited from. [00:55:42] Speaker B: Totally. [00:55:42] Speaker A: Stuff that we do in the studio. [00:55:43] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:43] Speaker A: There was a range of. Obviously we had. We had a band of eight year olds on that would just practice here. And they were iconic. [00:55:48] Speaker B: They were great. [00:55:49] Speaker A: We had a band of 14 year olds who were just amazing. [00:55:51] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:52] Speaker A: And ironically, there's a. There's a young singer that couldn't make the festival. I really wanted to. Who we coach as well. She's joining that band. [00:55:59] Speaker B: Oh, cool. [00:56:00] Speaker A: Not through me as well. [00:56:01] Speaker B: That's cool. [00:56:02] Speaker A: Which is so cool. [00:56:03] Speaker B: That's what it's all about. [00:56:04] Speaker A: Absolutely. So cool. You know, and so we had. [00:56:05] Speaker B: I didn't even think about the festival for a Feel Weird moment. Because it is. Yeah, exactly. [00:56:10] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:56:11] Speaker B: Family. [00:56:12] Speaker A: A family. [00:56:12] Speaker B: Yeah. I love it. [00:56:13] Speaker A: And then. But to go from a range of having those kind of artists that we're nurturing to Hazel who's like, yeah, totally. 100k for us on Instagram. An African award. African music award winning artist. [00:56:25] Speaker B: Totally. [00:56:26] Speaker A: And an icon in her own right. [00:56:27] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:56:28] Speaker A: You know, and every other artist was amazing. [00:56:31] Speaker B: I could. [00:56:31] Speaker A: You Know, I could talk about them all, really, but. And then obviously selling loads of clothes, us doing a T shirt for the. [00:56:38] Speaker B: Event that in crunch time. [00:56:40] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, crunch time. [00:56:42] Speaker B: You have the festival line printing loads of them. Yeah. [00:56:45] Speaker A: I think we've got one left. [00:56:46] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. No, we sold loads of parents afterwards. Came went, love it. Big fan of this. I want to donate some money to this cause. [00:56:53] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:56:53] Speaker B: And I want to buy a T shirt and give me a couple raffle tickets. [00:56:56] Speaker A: So cool. Yeah, so cool. So many people donated so many things for the prizes as well. It was just. It was an amalgamation of everything that we've worked for in the studio. That was very humbling. [00:57:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:57:06] Speaker A: Very powerful. And we raised over two grand. [00:57:08] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, also in total for the day. Incredibly great because you're there from the. I came at. [00:57:14] Speaker A: I want to say 9am I want. [00:57:16] Speaker B: To say I got there 11:30, 12ish, midday, obviously there until close. [00:57:21] Speaker A: One of the longest days of my life overall. [00:57:23] Speaker B: Hundreds of people in total came in overall throughout the day, like it was. [00:57:27] Speaker A: A roll throughout the rotation at over a thousand. [00:57:29] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:57:30] Speaker A: Ironically, the funny thing was if anyone came, they might remember the power cut. [00:57:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:57:36] Speaker A: Killed us big time. Which I was just about to say. I'm not gonna name and shame, but I ain't gonna say this podcast, but there's a. There's an unnamed local business. Who are they that put extension into extension into extension into extension and then the Borg and Yon here for food when they turned up last minute as well and tripped the whole. That's poor building. [00:57:58] Speaker B: Also, don't forget, this was minutes before they were going to turn the crystal. Oh, my God. [00:58:01] Speaker A: Nearly seconds before. Yeah. To the point where when the lights came back on, we didn't fucking have anything inside. [00:58:06] Speaker B: I thought it was for the bit. I thought they were going like, oh, we'll turn all the lights off. So there's a big hurrah moment, mate. Obviously not. [00:58:12] Speaker A: That killed us because at that point, square was falling. I think there was nearly a thousand people there. [00:58:15] Speaker B: Yeah. Crazy. [00:58:16] Speaker A: And then people fought off. But it was incredible event anyway. [00:58:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:58:19] Speaker A: Really proud of that. So to round us out, round us out. I think we should just have a little check in of. Of achievements, really. So, yeah, to round up, like we said, we did the Fill World live show at the studio with guest performers. [00:58:33] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:58:34] Speaker A: First live audience podcast show. [00:58:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:58:36] Speaker A: Nearly a grand's worth of merch sold on our first collection. [00:58:39] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:58:39] Speaker A: And 50 tickets sold. Incredible. Yeah. Phil, we didn't plug daytime show ticket shows. We did with we had Aiden Grimshaw, Lottie Gray. [00:58:48] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:58:49] Speaker A: Emil Almera. They were all amazing. The festival, like I said, 12 insane artists. First clothing range launched and effectively sold out. Yeah. We did first photo shoot with it all, which was a big. I really wanted to do that for years. [00:59:02] Speaker B: Yep. [00:59:05] Speaker A: For me. I've just realised this in the wrong list, but I did nearly 200 gigs last year. [00:59:09] Speaker B: That's a lot. [00:59:10] Speaker A: 365 days in the year. [00:59:11] Speaker B: That's a lot. 52 weeks a year divided by four. So you're really banging out like four gigs. Four gigs a week for a year. [00:59:18] Speaker A: Don't know how I did that, to be honest. Yeah, that's exactly what we did. Over 10 live private event bookings from the studio. We never did events before this that year other than dancing. [00:59:27] Speaker B: It's like a feel Weird wrapped. [00:59:29] Speaker A: Yeah, that's what I mean. [00:59:30] Speaker B: I love it. Keep going. [00:59:33] Speaker A: Team. Feel Weird. Me and Lilz got engaged, but she's fucked off. [00:59:36] Speaker B: Yep. Fair. [00:59:36] Speaker A: So that's annoying. We did 29 episodes of the Feel Weird podcast so far. [00:59:43] Speaker B: I was gonna say last year. [00:59:44] Speaker A: Yeah. Not last year. [00:59:45] Speaker B: My God. We were putting out numbers last year total. All right. Is this 30? [00:59:50] Speaker A: Yeah, this is 30. [00:59:51] Speaker B: Nice. [00:59:51] Speaker A: Oh, my God, this is 30. Bless you. Bless you. The Phil Weird insert is up to nearly 2,000 followers on Instagram. 2000 summit on TikTok. [01:00:01] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:00:01] Speaker A: Nearly 100,000 likes and over a million views is what I wanted to say. [01:00:05] Speaker B: Yeah. We're like 1.4 now. Crazy. [01:00:06] Speaker A: Two years. [01:00:07] Speaker B: 1.4 mil. Yep. Hundred thousand. [01:00:09] Speaker A: We've had loads of music released by artists that's all recorded and nurtured in the studio. [01:00:14] Speaker B: Too bright. [01:00:14] Speaker A: Which is really cool. The Stretford Socials Creatives Day, which we hosted at the studio. We did like a jam night and loads of cool events for loads of young people that were doing that as well. So I feel like there's a huge. [01:00:25] Speaker B: Amount to really be pleased at with that. [01:00:27] Speaker A: I feel like it's the kind of year that if anyone had done one of those things, it'd have been the best thing that's happened in a long time. [01:00:33] Speaker B: I agree. When you look at like that, because there's so much that happens here every week that you foresee and so much less that I do. [01:00:40] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:00:40] Speaker B: That when you really put it all in a big bow, it's crazy. [01:00:43] Speaker A: There's a lot of stuff we're saying to a friend the other day, like, I take. I. I don't. When I say I take it for granted, it's not an ungrateful thing. It's more that it just doesn't sink in. [01:00:53] Speaker B: It's normal for you because it's your job. [01:00:54] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. I live. [01:00:56] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:00:56] Speaker A: This is my work. Because, like, what. Anyway, I said because my life's dope and I did up. [01:00:59] Speaker B: Yep. [01:01:01] Speaker A: Every week involves something that's like. Would be. [01:01:04] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:01:05] Speaker A: Someone's starting, like. Yeah, yeah. [01:01:08] Speaker B: Biggest things. [01:01:10] Speaker A: So, you know, that's really cool in its own right. But also, like, I am just the person that when I think, sit down, start a year and I go, here's 60 things I want to achieve that are all completely nuts. When I pull off 20 that are really good, I'm like, yeah, about like a third of what I wanted to do. But then when you look at the 20, I'm like, fuck, that's tough. [01:01:24] Speaker B: That's a lot. [01:01:25] Speaker A: Because the whole. [01:01:25] Speaker B: That's a lot. [01:01:26] Speaker A: So I'm proud of us all. [01:01:27] Speaker B: As you should be. Well done. Really well done. Also one of the artists who you're not best friends with, who've been in this studio before, working with Tame Impala, Far side. Isaiah Rashad. [01:01:37] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And a bunch of other. [01:01:39] Speaker B: My favorite. Yeah. But she said you don't like him. Oh, yeah. Fair. Yeah. [01:01:42] Speaker A: Yeah. So I don't have the beef. [01:01:44] Speaker B: You don't have the beef. But you have the connected beef through association. Inherited beef. [01:01:48] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:01:48] Speaker B: Inherited beef. Yeah. But I said there's a ton you should be thankful for. And I'm sure there's a million more things this year because this time next year, when we do the 26 roundup, it won't be in this. [01:01:58] Speaker A: No. [01:01:58] Speaker B: In this unit. [01:01:59] Speaker A: That's if you want to mention, unfortunately, I can't give too much away on. But I mean, even. We don't even know. Even in the next few months, we're not gonna be here. [01:02:07] Speaker B: No. [01:02:07] Speaker A: So a lot's gonna change. [01:02:08] Speaker B: So we're gonna evolve. Yeah. So. Which is what all good productions need to do. [01:02:13] Speaker A: All good things do, I guess. [01:02:14] Speaker B: Yeah. And Pokemon. Yeah. [01:02:15] Speaker A: So 2020. Just thought bug one 2025 was a good year for us. [01:02:20] Speaker B: Twas. [01:02:20] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:02:21] Speaker B: Twas. [01:02:22] Speaker A: So that was fun.
