Episode Transcript
I don't know.
Speaker 2Actor friends that I have putting you are some of the most patient, understanding men when it comes to understanding that girls need a couple of seconds sometimes to just like fix themselves.
What Because they have grown up in a world of last looks, they understand that before the camera could roll give us even though we just did everything to the hair, the make up, the nails, the fit, just the walking to just the sitting down in this chair, something may have moved.
I need a second.
Speaker 1Actor.
Speaker 2Male friends are the most patient in those moments because they understand because they've been exposed to it one hundred times a day throughout their lives.
It's beautiful.
Speaker 1No, you're absolutely correct.
We're also we're also just more understanding because we're men, you know what I mean.
And that's just like our intelligence and like, you know, our ability to communicate humbleness.
Yeah, humility is like one of the things that's top, that's right up there.
That's right.
Love making ability.
We're always the best.
We're always the best.
I love making and understanding are understanding.
Speaker 2Okay, Okay.
Huge directed by Bill Purple, written by Danielle As Sanchez Witzel Yes, and it's one of my favorite ones that we did what it's called girl fight?
Speaker 1Yeah, I love this episode.
Speaker 2Love this episode so much truth in this episode, the difference between how men and women fight.
Episode four ten of New Girl Break it Down.
Speaker 1Okay, so in this episode, Schmidt accidentally sparks an all out girl fight between Jess and CC after exposing Jess's secret purse purchase.
Now, meanwhile, Nick goes on his first date with Kai, but Winston is convinced she homeless based on his highly questionable detective work, which conveniently also helps him avoid studying for his police exam.
Now, in the middle of all this drama, Coach proudly declares his expertise from growing up with sisters that I mentioned he grew up with sisters to just fight it out and move on.
We'll be right by Murder.
I was trying to sound like a SHRIPPERD say Sam shepperd Sham Sripper, Marlboro man smokes sugar rip yeah, or the Ford truck man talk Clark, you've got a.
Speaker 2Lot of commercial voiceovers or did you back in the day or did you always just use your real voice?
Speaker 1And then I use my real voice.
So I was the voice of Jimmy John Sandwiches for a couple of years.
Speaker 2Really.
Speaker 1Yeah, it's just like a heightened version of my real voice.
I do a lot of voiceovers as far as commercials go.
It's usually my regular voice.
Speaker 2Right, But I'm saying they could hire you to like they a catalog.
I feel like a lot of voice actors have that, like a catalog of all the different things that they could do.
Oh yeah, okay, Okay, great episode.
We're so excited to be back from this break, so we can dive right into a girl fight.
Speaker 1Yeah.
I love a girl fight.
You love a girl some of my favorite websites.
Speaker 2Girl Oh okay, so this moment okay.
So it starts off, of course insane, because Nick comes running in the living room saying he needs to iron his shirt for his date with try granddaughter ak the one that only the great Gretel Lee just so to not wear the short sleep.
Speaker 1I gotta find one of those.
I gotta if y'all got pictures wanted one.
Speaker 2I used to have one and it was very cute, but it was very good on me.
Yo.
Speaker 1Shout out to the people with short sleeve turtlenecks, if you have them, send send Hannah, those pictures.
Speaker 2Send me a picture of a man who's truly owning a short sleeve turtleneck.
I believe it's out there.
I believe there's a man.
Speaker 1Gotta be It's gotta be.
But but but but CC and jest they informed him, but they cannot because they are they're planning Nadia's birthday shower.
Yes, Nadia baby shower, it's right, birth baby shower, birthday of the baby baby.
Speaker 2Yes, the same Nadia that broke Schmidt's penis.
Speaker 1Yes, the Russian model played by the wonderful Rebecca Reid.
Yeah.
So then they go to a flashback.
Yeah, you want to flashback Winston.
He's in his room, he's studying, because they say to him, you know, go to Winston's room and figure this thing out.
Maybe used Winston's desk.
He can't he flash back Winston's room he's studying when actually he's just making origami designs for He's basically snowflakes not enough.
I remember doing that, and we shot it so many times because they kept adding.
They literally were adding snowflakes.
Does it look like enough?
Not enough?
Speaker 2And then they would It was a meta moment where in real life it wasn't enough and you had to keep saying.
Speaker 1Not enough, not enough, not enough.
Speaker 2Then we get to witness a fight between Schmidt and Coach over DVR space.
That's when he just gets like punched in the junk.
Speaker 1We're good, I mean, that's kind of how men do it, but not really.
Speaker 2But you know, in the junk, I feel like, would he.
Speaker 1In a stomach?
Speaker 2He in a stomach?
Speaker 1I think when when we got a low stomach.
Speaker 2Yeah, stomach, put on your tender profile.
Speaker 1I got that long torso short legs, and then we uh and then so you know, Jess explaining that this is not what we do.
This is not what women do.
Speaker 2You know what I mean, Like Justine, easy, don't fight, and we love that we don't fight, and they're like so great that we don't fight.
And they're like, like, we had a moment like with the same purse, and like this is how we like worked it out because we're so healthy in our relationship and we both decided we moment about the es and they decided.
I remember, by the way, the length of conversation that went around picking which purse and it was like the cutest purse.
Speaker 1Yeah, a TJ Max Marshalls something.
Speaker 2Like, yeah, it was something like that.
I was like, I was looking at I was like, that's not cute purse.
But they needed something.
I think it was the only like yellow purse and they wanted something bright.
Speaker 3Right.
Speaker 2That was just kind of symbolic going back and forth that you could see.
So it was based on color over acuteness, which I thought was a mistake because I feel like these girls had better taste.
Speaker 1Than that burst that's right, because we don't see color over here.
We only se.
Speaker 2Cuteness and neon yellow purse.
So then they decided that both of them were gonna buy it, and they did a really healthy choice and that was really really sweet.
And then Schmidt says too much.
Speaker 1He talks too much.
Speaker 2Man, He just dogs on his friends so hard.
In that moment, it was not so hard.
Speaker 1Well, part of me is like, did he do that intentionally just because his.
Speaker 2Favor with Ceci and his brain doesn't work right when she's in the room, So I don't even know it was intentional.
He just doesn't know how to not get involved in anything that CC's involved in because he's just trying to like worm his way in.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Yeah, and then where are we okay, so he said such a thing.
Speaker 2He doesn't know what he's just done, and coaches just like, whoa bro, you need to stay out of it because girlfights are very dangerous.
Speaker 1It's like, how do you know?
It's like I got sisters.
Yeah, and then we flashed back to young coach.
He gives his sister a bow, causing the other sisters to cut off their own ponytails because they're fighting.
What nice I mean?
And the look on that kid's face.
What an actor, What an actor that was?
I wonder what he's up to.
I gotta figure that out, because I was like, that was a that was a cool look.
Speaker 2He was so cute.
You feel like he genuinely is just that child got slightly traumatized in that moment and scared of them.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.
And then you know, so Jess she uh yeah, she comes clean.
She comes clean to the guys that she went back to the store and she bought the purse.
She loves the purse, you know, but she was working that she brought up the she brings up the purse and a lot of other stuff will get brought up.
Speaker 2We have a way of how this works out.
We have a fight, right, we don't talk for three days.
Then she shows up with a surprise latte, and then they never discussed it again.
They pretend like it ever happened.
And this is how it's been going for their entire friendship.
They've been friends their entire live.
So she's like, just stay away.
Speaker 1That's right, for three day days.
Speaker 2I've got this, I know how to do this.
Speaker 1And now Nick, Nick and Kai, Yeah, they're there.
They're bonding.
First day, they're sitting down at the bar or the restaurant having a beer.
Heisler of course, and shout out to Heisler.
Speaker 2You know that Wendy who works on our podcast.
Last name is Heisler.
Speaker 1Heisler.
I know, I know.
She's rich.
Speaker 2Heisler on the show, A real one.
Speaker 1She's rich from all this beer drinking, her New Girl and other shows.
But no, they're sitting there and they're having a conversation.
They're bonding over the fact that they they hate first dates, and they hate dates in general, you know, and terrible and weird they are, and how weird they both are.
Nick wants to do this with his hands, he wants to do this with his finger, and then she wants to do this with her shelter.
Speaker 2It is date second dates, third days.
It is all weird.
Everybody's putting on a version of themselves.
Everyone's trying like there feels like a pressure to like, you know, it should be about you of like is this person a good fit for me?
But you're also like I want to make sure that they like you, So you're putting out this weird face and then it feels awkward and it's so strange, and so they kind of just talk that all out and she's just like I kind of just want to do nothing, but like nothing's not sexy, but she has met her match in the doing of nothing.
Speaker 1Oh my god, Oh my god.
Let let's talk about it for a second.
Yeah, I might.
I might be able to appreciate I might be able to appreciate a person like that.
I mean, it wouldn't hurt that she was Greta Lee.
Speaker 2I think it helps that.
Speaker 1It's great, it helps, it helps.
But it's like I like to do nothing sometimes and when I'm in a relationship with a woman and I and I've dated like a couple of women that are just get up and go just do every morning every morning.
There they are at seven am.
They're done with their hike.
They're done already.
They're at the gym, they're getting there, they're on their their you know, their work.
They're the dates with the friends, they're bouncing around.
They want to just stay active.
And there there are days where I feel like that.
But most of the time, because we work so much, we got so much responsibility with you know, family and stuff like that, sometimes I just want to sit down at home and be okay with it.
So somebody like her, man, that would be great.
So for all those lazy women out there, you know, call me.
Yeah, it doesn't lay up to you.
Speaker 2There and hang out the house and be cozy and come.
Speaker 1She can go to work.
She can go to work, you know, do whatever she want to do.
Speaker 2Just by seven am.
That's a hard that's crazy.
Speaker 1Sleep in wake up at noon.
I don't care like you know, damn, I want to be able to wait.
I want to say I will go.
Speaker 2She doesn't really need to go to work if she doesn't want to.
Speaker 1That's fair, but you know that's fair.
I'm you know, I'm sugar.
Speaker 2Daddy in out here, all got lit up like hello.
Speaker 1Hey, listen, liten ladies.
I take care of you.
Now, come on, come on, come on.
Speaker 2Back to a little more, back to how this podcast.
Yeah, me trying to find you?
Speaker 1Yeah, oh yeah, I don't mind.
Come on now, ladies.
Speaker 2They order pizza, they drink around the couch.
They're watching a movie, and then they cut to three days later.
They have not moved the Winston's spidery senses.
Speaker 1They go yeah, yeah, yeah.
He comes like he's uh, she's doing detective work, right.
He's in there writing in his notepad and coaches wonder and why he isn't studying all right, and then Winston gets on this weird little CSI thing where he's putting stuff together and then he punches Winston and the dick that's right, yeah, and they get in his ol and it's done.
Speaker 2Done.
Speaker 1It was done.
Now.
Jess, she runs into C C at the coffee shop and she's like hey, because.
Speaker 2She's got her planet's three days later, she got the surprise latte s CC.
Speaker 1She's like boom, CC says.
Speaker 2I can buy my own, and she flashes that's ther Now.
Speaker 1Initially I thought she went and bought her own.
She found it and got it.
Speaker 2That was my first thought too.
I forgot what happens in the episode.
And then and then Jess walks in on Schmidt and was like, what you And then they show the flash of what CC did.
She were a very low cut top and said get the purse, and then it and get the purse.
Speaker 1I never understood why men were so weak in these moments because it doesn't phase me.
They didn't phase me.
It doesn't men are men are weak, you know what I mean?
And I'm I'm I'm different from the rest of them, ladies, I pay your light bill.
Speaker 2This is what's happening in this episode, the complete underestimation of women.
Okay, poor Kai is like reading the newspaper because she's a smart woman and falls asleep and Nick is so dumb that the bug put in his ear about the fact that she might be homeless.
That's all he sees.
Speaker 1Now, yeah, that's what I mean.
But that's what Winston, that's the conclusion he's come to because it does make sense.
It does make sense, you know what I mean.
Oh.
I love the fact that he asked him to sit down.
I love the fact that he was like, you might want to sit down for this.
Speaker 2He's like, crack the case.
We have to talk about this moment because we've skipped it, and it's so funny to me, is the emoji war that happens.
It's easy because it ends with double syringe.
And I would say on about eighty percent of all of Zoe's posts, I just post double syringe.
Really, it's I never knew that in real life.
It's our inside joke.
I think it's funny.
She gets it, and of course the whole New Girl Little universe of these girl Fight lovers get it.
Oh wow, I never double syringe.
Speaker 1I never paid attention to that.
That's cool.
Speaker 2You're not going through always comments center posts.
Speaker 1Today, let's see double syringe.
Yeah, folks, start double syringing us.
You know, let us know ergy, let us know you're listening.
This is how you let us know you're listening.
Double syringe it.
Speaker 2How many double syringes are we going to get underneath this clip?
Double syringe?
Speaker 1That's right.
Speaker 2The max offensive thing you could possibly send is the double syringe.
Speaker 1That's right.
But we won't take it as an offense.
If you all did it to us, do it to us guys, double.
Speaker 2Syringe es and so yeah, So then we were in that moment where he says, you got to sit down, and he says that Nick is the sugar daddy, which to call Nick Miller anyone sugar daddy, who, as we saw in the last episode doesn't even have twenty bucks is wild.
Speaker 1That's wild, that's crazy.
Speaker 2I love the newspapers.
And he's like, man, must be true.
Speaker 1Oh okay, okay, let let's talk about that for a second.
This woman fell asleep with newspapers.
And then he said, oh, it's actually not bad.
And she says, see, why would she say that.
That means she does this all the time.
She falls asleep on her newspapers all the time.
Speaker 2No, I'm going to say this.
I will say this.
Okay.
I remember because one made a comment when they came over to my apartment once, my old apartment, which you went to million times.
But I always got the newspaper and I would always read it in bed and then so I always had newspapers like all over my bed.
So I think women who like to read the newspaper and who are like also, I'm very much like hi, who just wants to like hang out and be cozy on a couch or whatever at home all the time.
Speaker 1There's bundle of newspapers that's interesting.
That's an interesting way to look at it.
Hannah.
Yeah, I think you're incorrect.
Speaker 2I think you're yeah, incorrect about your life in your newspaper situation.
Speaker 1Hannah, I think you were homeless on house.
Speaker 2It's kind of like a nice lightweight blanket.
Don't hate on it.
Speaker 3We're going to go to break crazy.
This boy girl fight continued, and we are and.
Speaker 2We are straight into Nadia's baby shower.
Oh yeah, says to the most iconic things ever.
She's going to name her baby baby because it's funny.
And then she says, where's the top of the baby cage?
Speaker 1The baby cage?
That's amazing.
Speaker 2You know, actually for cribs you can put a top on it.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, I can scared.
Speaker 2Of your baby crawling out, like they're at that age where they could crawl out of the crib.
Speaker 1Well, there's a mesh net you can like rap.
It's like a little dome that you can put on it so you can still see through it and it's it's mesh, but they can't climb out.
That's right.
Because Lily, oh my gosh, the video footage I have of her baby cam of her when she started realizing she had muscles, and she would pull herself up and just fling herself out of her crib.
I was like, oh my god, I mean gnarly videos.
Speaker 2Yeah, they're well, babies are all kind of like Pepper from the Bangs Giving episode.
Speaker 1Yeah, crazy strong like ants.
Speaker 2Yeah, and also like there's her gravity is so low so they're not scared of falling.
Speaker 1I remember one time Lily did get scared.
She pulled herself up.
This is the first time this happened.
She pulled herself up.
She put one leg over and just starts screaming.
She looked down and she was like and she couldn't move.
She was just like stuck.
And so I come flying in the room and I see her and I just burst into laughter.
I gotta go pick her up, and I'm like, where are you trying to go?
Speaker 2And so she's like, I'm on the top of the Empire State Building.
See how high this is?
Speaker 1Oh gosh.
I had to like I had to raise it.
I had to get one that was even higher.
Speaker 2You're like, I need to talk to this baby cage.
Speaker 1I was like, my gosh.
And the funniest is when you walk in and she wants to get out and She's holding onto the bars like a prisoner and her face is leaning up against it.
Speaker 2She's like, that is it is a baby cage.
She's not.
Speaker 1It is it's age on.
Speaker 2These babies because you don't want them walking around with all these outlets and ovens.
Come on, now, we don't know are safe for babies at this baby shower.
Schmidt is there because of course he is, and Coach.
He calls Coach and Coach is like, what are you doing?
Get out of there immediately, and he's like, I can't.
It's bad.
They're just staring at at each other.
Just and Ceci are just staring at each other, and there's like seething happening.
What do I do?
And then Coach says I can help end this.
Speaker 1He runs out.
Then we reveal that he has saran wrapped Winston to a chair, forcing him to study, and then brings up a very valid point, how am I going to study?
I can't move the pages.
Speaker 2Thing you do to move the chair, I'm.
Speaker 1Doing it now.
Speaker 2It's the only way to move the chair because if you do too big of like a swoop with your foot, you might go flying and you have no arm.
You gotta go.
You gotta go slow.
Speaker 1That's right now, what you know on some Superman type stuff, Winston could have probably broke out of it.
Knowing me back then, I'm probably more strong than I am now.
But anyway, I.
Speaker 2Would have been very cute to see the pushing against your saran wrap.
So many people look in that apartment.
Couldn't somebody just unwrap you?
Speaker 1No, they're all idiots.
He's telling Kay he wants to go to her place.
You know, he's a man of the people, regardless of this rock star lifestyle that he has.
You know, he's telling her that he wants to be with her wherever she lives.
He's basically applying that he's in a lot of words, he's saying that he's a sugar daddy, and he says it it's like, I just feel like, you know, you see all this stuff that I have, It's like I got an extra pillowcase.
Speaker 2Where he basically says that most of it actually isn't his anyway.
It is the funny, that's my frisbee, I'm storing on my neighbor's roof.
What are you talking about?
It's so painful to watch him brag, but it's also so sweet.
That he's obviously also sharing that he really does just like her for her, Yeah, and he doesn't care, and he's like, I'll bring some extra blankets, and then he grabs the newspapers papers because he insulting because.
Speaker 1He wants to go to her house.
Yeah, and so I agree, see what it is.
Speaker 2And he just assumes because where he was like, well, where does Tran live?
He's like, well, I always see about a park bench.
The math, the math was mathing.
Speaker 1Yes, it was.
Now we're mid fight, you know, Cee.
He's telling Jess she was just defending her when she told Mike Hanneman that she was on her period.
Speaker 2They're screaming, they're crying.
Twenty years of repressed anger has now been unleashed thanks to Schmid messing with the system, and so it's on.
Everything's coming out.
All the things they haven't said and talked through and worked through and healed and repaired from is now on the table.
And it gets crazy.
Speaker 1Yes, so crazy that coach says, listen, yes, in order to resolve this, guys, y'all gonna have to fight it out, just punch punch, punching and get it over with.
And instead of punching CEC.
I mean, I don't know where this came from, but CC just speared her.
Jess wwe boom.
I was shocked when I saw that, to be quite.
Speaker 2Honest, Yeah, the I remember, so all of those women that are playing in the baby shower are all stunt women.
Speaker 1Mm hmm.
Speaker 2So there's Jess and myself, Nadia, and then everybody else was a stunt woman.
And so that fight that you see is done by professionals.
Yes, just holly body slamming each other, throwing each other around.
It was so crazy.
And then when we did like the breast pump attack on my eyes, I remember like the choreography of it, also making sure they didn't like actually slam me in the eyes.
There was actually so much stuff you have to do to have a fight in a scene to make sure nobody gets hurt.
And even though this one seems so ridiculous, there were so many ways people could get hurt because also high heels folks just flying around the room.
Speaker 1I know, I know, but I mean I know what it takes as an action star, but I've done it millions of times.
But it was good to see that you got you got a chance to experience what I've been experiencing my whole career.
High action, high high action, high octane scenes.
Now now fight's over.
They destroyed the place.
Nadia is loving.
Speaker 2It, the thing where she's like, I'm not bored, I'm bored.
I'm I'm bored, like making her so happy.
Speaker 1She's stomping on the baby gifts like.
Speaker 2Her baby gifts.
Speaker 1She is.
She's so funny.
She's one of the funniest characters we've had.
Speaker 2We needed that.
That's the thing that is so phenomenal about the Naughty A character.
No one else could have done it like that, like they casting on this show, and the freedom they gave people to build the weirdness again, like Outside Dave is so beautiful and adds all of those like the world of New Girl gets just so rich because of it, and kept bringing people back.
Naughty A crushes in this.
Speaker 1Episode, Oh where are we now?
Oh?
Speaker 2Yeah, the hospital, the hospital, and they feel better.
There is a relief in letting it all out better out than in.
Speaker 1Yes, yes, one percent.
And you know they're coming clean about you know, wanting to have punched each other for a long time.
They've known each other for twenty years.
They talk it out blah blah blah.
But this is the fight.
The fight was very much so worth it.
Now, Nick calls Winston when he's inside of her very very very expensive looking place.
Yes, couldn't tell if it was like a mansion or an apartment, but either way, she got money.
Speaker 2Yeah, she.
Speaker 1Rich, vetty vetty rich.
And he he explained to her that, you know, hey, she's rich.
Man.
She found it and sold a company that sells water bottles.
It's a scam called Consultant and hick Winston tries to say face.
He's like, see, I knew it.
He's like, oh, you're very wrong.
It's like, no, but I knew there would be a twist.
Speaker 2It's something about it.
I'll figure that out, by the way.
Also fair to Winston, he did he could smell something something, you know, I mean, it was the exact opposite of what his detective skills told him.
Speaker 1It was.
Yeah, he'd locked the wrong person up.
He probably put the wrong person in jail.
But he's locking was the mother.
No, it was the father.
Yeah, that's what I meant.
It was the father.
Speaker 2Thing more terrifying than Winston.
Speaker 1And yes, so kai so Nick so sitting down on the couch and Nick is saying, hey, listen, I gotta get back to I gotta get back to work.
You know this is my uh it's what do you say?
It's karaoke night.
Get there.
Speaker 2I have to get there early to break the karaoke machine.
Speaker 1She is so funny.
Speaker 2I'm talking about a new girl.
Man, the tiniest lines, so funny, because so true.
Speaker 1Yeah, if I were working at a bar, i'd break that shit too.
I don't want to hear people singing.
Speaker 2She said she can make to one hundred and forty bucks.
She gives him two hundred dollars and he's like, I'm a boy hooker.
Speaker 1Look girl, listen.
I don't know if i'd be down to accept that money, but I would love the gesture.
Speaker 2Right.
It's very sweet to be like, I'll figure this out.
Speaker 1I'll tell you a quick story.
So I know we gotta go.
But I remember being on a date.
I was with an X of mine and this other woman walks by and she grabs my hand and I was like, oh, and then she then we see her again because this woman was rough.
She was like she come here and I was like, oh, she comes back, and she's like sanding next to us while we're standing.
It was like a like a concert type of and she goes, I give you ten Please forgive what I'm about to say, but this is what she said to me.
She goes, I'll give you ten thousand dollars right now, here's her.
I was like, what did she say?
I said, I don't know.
I don't know, I don't know.
He slowly walked away.
I was like, oh my god, my and I never I'd never let live that down.
I never.
I always reminded remember that time that I was proposition by that thug.
Speaker 2I would like to say that you probably would have lost if you had taken up on that.
She wanted to take it home and put it in a jar.
Yeah.
Speaker 1What she had plans for I don't know.
Speaker 2But I don't think it was going to be a plus as an experience for you.
Speaker 1Yeah, let's see cut the the uh the ten k.
Speaker 2Why it's so true, like it happens all the girls get propositioned all the time with people coming up offering you money for doing wild things.
Oh my gosh.
I have so many stories very similar to that, where you go like, what did you just say?
Yeah, obvious no, because you're terrifying.
Speaker 1And women and how guys are used to that.
Women and hot guys are used to that.
I gotta say, that's probably like what y'all experience all the time.
Me that was the one and only.
Speaker 2Time, and she was very scary.
Speaker 1I was like, what, why couldn't have been tire banks?
And that was tire banks.
I'd been like, get this money.
Speaker 2All right?
So Coach apologizes for making the girls punch each other justin CC then play out what a girl fight between girl Coach and girl Schmidt would sound like.
It's beyond accurate.
It's causing the boys to laugh it off.
And then in the elevator, Coach and Schmidt start complimenting each other.
Speaker 1Oh, and he can.
Speaker 2Smell what's happening, and so he does the only thing he can.
Speaker 1He punches them both in the testicles.
That's right, And then we end on a montage of Winston procrastinating.
Here's what I love most about this, and I need to clip these moments.
If there's a way we can clip these moments and tag these references.
You know, when you balled up paper and you throw it in the trash, you always yell out, Kobe or Jordan, Sure, you know, I was yelling out like og Chicago Bulls name or Chicago Legends.
So the first time you see me do it, I say, Craig Hodges, shout out if you know, you know, shout out to Craig Hodges.
And then at one point I go Darius Miles, if you know, you know, shout out to Darius Miles, Basketball icons man and uh, and then I say Jordan but everybody, you know whatever.
But I would i want to go on the record to say that I'm keeping the name of Craig Hodges, Darius Miles alive.
Darius Miles has got a great podcast, but I'm keeping them names alive.
Speaker 2It's a nice thing in the show when we would be able to sneak things in that like mattered to us like that it happened, I think for all of us a little bit.
There'd be little things that we would just like pepper in and then it would make the cut and make the show and now it just like lives out there forever.
And it was very cool, all right, Darius and Craig.
Speaker 1Mm hmm, Craig Hodges, Darius Miles.
Speaker 2That's the episode.
We got through it without having too many fights, So that's pretty good for us.
Yeah, when we come back, we go on mess off.
Speaker 1Rounds and we're back, Hannah, I just realized it's time to mess around.
Okay.
So what's the worst girl fight you've gotten into or witnessed?
What was it about?
Speaker 2Well, I'll say something about fights.
First, I've never seen a fight, a physical fight.
I've never seen a physical fight, and so I was always just like so curious, like is it real?
Does it really happen?
Like would someone ever actually like really like strike somebody else?
And this is just like a real thing.
When I was younger, I just thought it was crazy.
And then when I was seventeen, I moved from India to a place called White Rock appropriately in Canada, and I remember turning the TV on and the first thing that came on was Jerry Springer ooh, And I remember just being like what is this?
And you know, like they had the what was his name, the like the bouncer.
Speaker 1Steve, Steve will go, Steve will.
Speaker 2Go, and Steve would just like with like he was so bored, he was so unfazed, and he would just like just just pull people off of each other, just separate the fights.
And I just remember being mesmerized, and then I like watched At the time, it was called WWF notes WWE, but I would watch it because I was just like so fascinated by like the fact that somebody would ever do it, because girl fights aren't very much like you see in this episode, very passive, aggressive, like you're not gonna say it to their face.
You're gonna find some way behind their back to like make them feel how upset you were, but you're never gonna talk about it, and you're probably gonna be friends for ever, and it's never gonna come up because now it's so far gone.
So it's an accurate representation of a girl fight.
But I remember being fascinated by, like, what does an actual physical fight look like.
Speaker 1Oh, I've seen him in person.
Oh my gosh, I've seen I've seen.
Like I said, I grew up in the South Side of Chicago.
People were angry, people were just mad.
I've seen some girl fights that are crazy.
I'm talking brawls and the girls fighting.
The girls are fighting, and the girls are just they go crazy because they pull hair, they scratch with dudes.
It's kind of like they're trying to look cool, you know, they're trying to like get precision punches in and like I want to look.
Speaker 2Like a lot more like grappling just like holding well, yeah, I'm just nobody can get an arm out.
Speaker 1It depends on the skill level.
Sometimes they do that, like if they're like, you know, trying to like more.
Some people are trying to stop the fight while they're in the fight.
They're trying to just wrestle you to the ground and just sit on you and just kind of just.
Speaker 2I'm going to grapple you down and then I'm just gonna like get on top and mount and hold your arms down and be like enough.
Speaker 1The women, the women fights are bloodier.
I feel like I've seen like people scratching people's eyes out and like ripping like earrings out.
Hair.
So many weaves, oh, so many weaves and wigs just all over the city.
I swear to go bad.
Speaker 2If someone snatched your hair out.
Oh my god, just.
Speaker 1Weave and wig all over the city.
It's so it's so wild.
Yeah, and it's always a boob that pops out.
There's always one.
Speaker 2I mean a new girl.
We had a boob fight.
Speaker 1Yes, just slapping boobs, slapping bobs.
Speaker 2That was a real new girl's storyline.
I will say I saw one fight and it was Coachella.
I was staying at a hotel in Palm Springs, and then I came down to the hotel lobby and all of a sudden, you know, you could just hear something that doesn't sound right, and I look and the lobby that had been packed with people.
Everybody was against the walls and this guy was picking up There was like a DJ in the lobby picking up the equipment from the DJ and hurling it at this other guy in the middle of the fight.
It was so it was a fancy hotel.
It was the craziest thing, and everybody was against the wall like doing the right thing.
And I was like so like, oh my god, it was like I'd seen like an elephant walking down the street.
It was just sort of like a fascination because I just never seen anything like it.
And I remember the group I was at the time, They're like, let's get out of here, like we have to leave, We're going to remove ourselves handa.
Speaker 1That's wild.
Speaker 2It was really crazy.
Like the poor DJ, who had nothing to do with the fight, like lost all of the time.
Speaker 1Okay, let's do one more pick Oh, back.
Speaker 2In your days as a student, were you a big procrastinator like Wednesday when it came to study.
Speaker 1Yes, Uh yeah, I'm still like that me too.
I'm like before a meeting.
Sometimes I'll have a meeting about a project and the meeting is on a Friday, I'm reading that script probably like two hours before the meeting.
Speaker 2Yeah.
But the thing is, if you've spent your whole life being a quote unquote procrastinator, right, don't you think that your brain works better that way?
Because I'm the same.
Have I read a script like a week before, There's so much life that happens in between, it won't be of mind.
And so for me because I've always been that way through school, through everything, through work, because I've always done something like right at the last second.
That's now how I perform best with that information and material personally.
So it looks like everybody else gets crazy because like its fit's down to the wire, Hannah, And I'm like, yeah, but like I'm not stressed because this is how I work best.
So like, yeah, you stress me out.
I'm not stressed, but your energy is stressing me out because I work differently than you.
Speaker 1Yeah, No, I agree.
Speaker 2I agree for the procrastinators.
I see you.
You figured out your way, your system, Lamurna, and I are here for you.
Speaker 1There was a study that said people who are procrastinators are smarter than everybody else.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's study that you and I did last year.
It just came out.
Speaker 1That's a real study, real study.
Wall Street Journal.
Quote me on that real study.
From Jill Rogan's podcast, I love how.
Speaker 2Now just in the mayor and if you say something with a lot of confidence quickly and be like no questions please and move on, most people will be like you heard.
Speaker 1It on the podcast.
Could be true, It could be true.
Speaker 2Could be true, you guys, it could be true.
But we're living proof that it doesn't hurt to be a procrastinator.
We're doing all right in life.
We figured it out and we're still procrastinating Wednesday.
Man, do your thing.
He was fine in the episode.
Who's doing it his way?
We also know how it ends up.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
We also know it all worked out.

I guess, like I remember, girl Fight.
Season four is a great season, really great, and it's a huge thing to have Damon.
