38: Best Music Moments in Yellowjackets

[00:00:00] Podcast Pickup Help me move it! I'm hungry, I'm dirty, I'm losing my mind, everything's fine! Hey everybody, welcome to our podcast. I'm Daphne. And I'm Penny. And I'm Wendy. And this is Yellowjackets WTF episode 38. This week we're talking about our top five song moments from the entire series,

[00:00:52] and any other discussion of the use of music in the show that comes up along the way. I've been really excited about this one. Me too. This was kind of one idea I floated out to Penny.

[00:01:05] I think it was even before the end of the season of the show. Yeah, we talked about it. Yeah, we should talk about the music. And we definitely talked about the music in the podcast, but you know, we could talk about the music some more. We can.

[00:01:19] It's pretty phenomenal, the music on this show. It's so well done. Well, any excuse? Before we dive into it, I just wanted to mention that the music supervisor is named Nora Felder. She deserves all kinds of credit because the music is amazing. It really is.

[00:01:38] The selection of the song to fit the scene. It's so easy to get, you know, to hear the song outside of the show and be like, oh my god, that's when that happened. Yep.

[00:01:51] Or, oh my gosh, I'm going to tear up because this is when... yeah, those types of things. Some songs are now inexplicably linked to that scene in my mind.

[00:02:03] I know we were just having a little fun thing on the group where Laura Willis-Wink is doing like a 30 days of music. And one of the questions was a song you have to sing out loud. And I picked the song that Jeff rocks out to in the car.

[00:02:23] And it's like, I can't think of that song without thinking of that now. Yeah, that scene is amazingly like, emblazoned on my brain. Yeah. And there's a few of those here that are like that.

[00:02:37] Yeah, we got to see a lot of personality during that, you know, moment with Jeff banging on the steering wheel.

[00:02:44] It just, I think it humanized him a little bit because we've all had those moments where you just you can't take anymore and you just you don't even know what to do. It's probably actually a very good stress reliever. That's why he's so happy all the time.

[00:03:00] I know. Yeah, I mean, it's a really healthy way to get out your anger and frustration. You're not hurting anyone. You're you know, you're not even driving while you're doing it.

[00:03:10] So you're just like getting it the music in your head because if you have a decent car stereo, the sound is like can be huge and all encompassing.

[00:03:19] So he's just like completely in that moment. And I love when he comes inside and Sean is like, Why are you sweaty? It's like, I was in my car. That is how you know he got all the aggression out. Yeah. Right. All right, who is gonna go first?

[00:03:39] I'll go first. Yeah. All right. And this is in order for me. So this is like my number five. I picked Never Tear Us Apart by Paloma Faith. Good one.

[00:03:52] I really hadn't heard this song before. If I did, I wasn't really aware of it. I of course loved In Excess. I loved the original big fan of them to this day. I thought it was interesting that this is the first song that wasn't from the 90s.

[00:04:10] It plays at the end of episode one of the first season. And it plays as a montage of where each of the characters are in the 90s timeline. And it really gives us some little glimpses and some big glimpses of some of the characters.

[00:04:30] And some of what we see there really comes into play later becomes really important. Like we see Jackie in a beautiful girls room that anybody would have wanted to have as a little girl. Neatly packing very nice luggage.

[00:04:48] Immediately juxtaposed with Natalie in a cramped trailer park smoking a cigarette. We see Laura Lee praying in a relatively sparse room. We see Lottie being served her medications for schizophrenia by a maid. Van aggressively waking up her drunk mother.

[00:05:10] And we see Misty watching a rat drowning in her pool. Which every time I watch that it gets worse. I think maybe knowing what we know now. And we see Travis, Javi and their dad.

[00:05:25] And we can see there's some family dynamics going on there getting ready for the trip. And then we see Shauna who shows the letter that she's received from Brown. That she was accepted. Which we know Jackie thinks she's going to college with her.

[00:05:42] So we know that's a big thing. And so the song is just amazing. The music perfectly fits for that scene. And I just love that they touch on each of the girls and what we see before the plane crash.

[00:05:56] I don't think any one of us could have said it better, Wendy. I think that that captures the essence of what was going on. And it does give us that glimpse into their personal lives. That we really hadn't seen up until that point. Again, it's the first episode.

[00:06:18] It's the pilot episode. Yeah, I don't think we had seen where Natalie lived. Yeah, we learned a lot in that little scene. I also got a couple facts off of Wikipedia. This was recorded, very interestingly, it was actually recorded for an advertisement.

[00:06:39] So it was recorded for an advertisement for John Lewis. Began airing in the UK in September 2012. And became so incredibly popular that she released it on her next single. That's really cool. I kind of hate when they take such great songs and put them on commercials.

[00:07:00] But I guess that is what it is. Yeah, I think if I saw the commercial now, it's not going to change. That this song is going to take me back for multiple reasons. Because again, in excess to the original version.

[00:07:15] And this remake was just perfect for the show, I think, with the female vocal. I know, it might be terrible to say, but I think I like this version better than in excess. I love them both, but I think this one is it for me. I love it.

[00:07:31] Well, that song has been covered a few times. And yeah, I've heard some slower versions of it as well. Yeah, I think that this one though is perfect for the scene. Yeah. Again, this is what the show does. It lines everything out that way.

[00:07:49] And I really appreciate it. All right, who's next? I'll go next. My number five is Dreams by the Cranberries. It's season one, I can't remember if it's episode three or four. When they find the lake and they all are so excited to find water and a lake.

[00:08:12] And they race into the water, stripping their clothes off and swim. And it's this moment where you're like, oh, something good is finally happening. And then you sort of hear the lyrics of, it's never quite as it seems, never quite as it seems.

[00:08:28] And it's like, all right, this is a dark twisted show where fucked up stuff happens. So finding a lake is probably a mixed blessing. People die in that lake. Laura Lee died over that lake. The moose died in that lake. Javi died in that lake.

[00:08:48] The lake is, you know, it's fraught. But it's also a source of life. And I love that song and it's in constant rotation on my playlist now. Yeah. When I remembered it after watching it in season one.

[00:09:03] It was a light scene in a show that doesn't have many light scenes. Yeah. And it was early on in the show. It was nice to see also like a reminder that these are teenage girls and this is a team. Right. They all, they're and they're athletes. Right.

[00:09:23] So they all just like race to the water together and like threw off their clothes. Like they didn't for a minute think like Coach Bob is here and Travis and Javi. They were like swim. And they're playing together.

[00:09:37] And it reminds me very much that they are a sports team and that these girls have spent tons of time together on, you know, buses and in locker rooms and it practices. And it's such a teenager moment. It's beautiful.

[00:09:56] It's interesting that we're, it seems like we're starting with music that's a little, you know, not super intense. It's kind of just painting this little picture. Yeah, because I agree. My number five is not what I originally thought would be my number five.

[00:10:15] But it turned out to be because it shows them being kids and that is Montel Jordans. This is how we do it. Oh, yeah, that's great one. That was almost my number five Daphne. That's like my first honorable mention.

[00:10:31] It's so perfect because while the Walkman dies and they don't even get to really, you know, we don't hear the music again. They don't have music after that really. But watching them dance and be teenage girls like they're at a slumber party.

[00:10:48] It's just it gives you this picture of the calm before the storm. Before things go downhill and get where they are now, we're getting this fun dance moment. It's kind of like when they were dancing in the locker room or like at a pep rally.

[00:11:07] All of that, like it represents this time that they get to be kids before they become savages. Yeah, it's the world building of what they've lost, right?

[00:11:21] It's the show giving us these glimpses into, you know, who they could have been if this horrible thing hadn't happened to them. Exactly. And it's again, I think watching them lose one thing at a time. So music is one thing that they lose along the way.

[00:11:42] I can't imagine. I listen to music every day. Me too. I wouldn't know what to do. Like there's only so much you can sing without. Unless you're Crystal. Yeah. I mean, I wake up and I put my earbuds on.

[00:11:59] Mostly so I, you know, my husband sleeps in now because he works from home. So mostly so I don't disturb him. But I wake up and listen to music every day. That's the first thing I do.

[00:12:11] It's how you get, I think, ready for the day, like to get your head in the right space to be able to focus. I think you need to listen to something.

[00:12:23] When I used to drive into the office, I would often listen to music on the way in and podcasts on the way home. It's like I'm charging myself up for the work day and then the podcast will bring me back down.

[00:12:37] So it's like a transition to after work and being home. So, yeah, that is my number five. Wendy, what do you have for your number four? My number four is Vienna by Ultravox. This is really powerful scene. We actually get this song in two different episodes.

[00:13:01] We first hear it as the final song in episode three of season one. It's raining as Natalie and Misty arrive at the Willowbrook Ranch where they're trying to track down Travis. There's a creaking noise and we see Travis. Actually, I don't know. We don't see Travis.

[00:13:25] We just see Natalie's reaction, which is just heartbreaking. Then we see Natalie collapse on the ground. The song starts quietly. Misty gets her out of there. They're in the car for a little bit.

[00:13:40] Then the volume starts increasing as the lyrics start and the camera pans over Travis's body. We don't get the whole song. We just get kind of the beginning of it, but it's really good.

[00:13:53] Then in episode ten of season one, it's the last song that plays at the end of the entire season. It plays as the scenes switch between Travis and Nat searching for a hobby. Then Travis tells Nat that he loves her.

[00:14:12] In 2021, in the modern timeline, Natalie throws away Travis's autopsy photos. The song just bookends the beginning and the end of Natalie and Travis. I love the song now. Also, a song that I don't think I was really aware of was published in 1981.

[00:14:39] So early, not in the 90s for them, but it's just so powerful and good. I love it and I've added it to all my playlists. Did anybody else have that? I did in my honorable mentions. Okay. Yeah, that's a good one.

[00:14:58] I actually was getting goosebumps writing it up today. Just thinking about, first, the song, which starts so slowly and powerfully and builds. But also thinking about the scenes between them. How about you, Penny? What's your number four? Number one, Crush by Garbage.

[00:15:20] The scene in season two, I did not write down which episodes were which. But the one where Jeff and Shauna go to Adam's art studio and find all those paintings of Shauna in various undressed states.

[00:15:38] And also that really creepy one of her face, where she's like a monster. And then they have, I don't know how to describe the sex that they have. It's a little bit angry, a little bit hot.

[00:15:54] At the time, I remember saying this on the podcast, that the fact that you can hear the music muffled coming from another apartment reminds me of the feeling when I was younger and I would sneak off to a coat room to make out with someone at a party.

[00:16:11] And you could still hear the music, but you felt separate from the party. It had that same sneaking around feeling. Especially the two of them having sex, looking at all these paintings of Shauna. And it's just such a memorable moment. It seemed very angry.

[00:16:32] Jeff was very angry, I think, in that moment. And that's what it felt like to me. And I think Shauna was into it. She was like, yeah, this is what I wanted, Jeff. This is what I was looking for. She likes the darkness. She likes the aggression.

[00:16:50] She likes control games and domination. She likes to be a little more edgy than Jeff. Jeff is so generally straight and narrow. He doesn't like the strawberry lube either. No, it's too much for him.

[00:17:09] Do you think maybe some of that whole control is because when they were out in the wilderness, they had no control over anything. It was just a big bottle of chaos. So she likes Jeff taking control because she doesn't have to think about it.

[00:17:32] She also liked that kind of thing, though, before they ever got lost. The first time we see her and Jeff making out as teenagers in the car and they're going to have sex, she's the boss. And she tells him what to do.

[00:17:45] And then that other time at their house, she's like the boss and she's pushing him around. I think that was always in her, that desire to have some kind of power play and finding that sexy.

[00:17:58] The fact that it's Jeff this time, I think she enjoyed as a surprise. She was like, oh, Jeff, I didn't know you had it in you. But I do think Daphne, you're right that for a lot of people who have gone through trauma, they become control freaks.

[00:18:15] And it's a way to sort of work through the feeling of having lost all control over your fate. I totally get it. She was upset at the end of season two. She was upset that she wasn't picked to be the leader. Yeah, which is so weird.

[00:18:33] Who wants to be the leader? Yeah, I agree. But Natalie, the person who is always kind of the outcast, she is the chosen one. And that, yeah, the dynamic for next season is going to be different. And I'm all in. Wendy, you have a question, Wendy.

[00:18:54] I do have a question. How many coat rooms have you made out in, Penny? A handful? Too many to keep track. I guess it's kind of a thing I like. Okay, she likes the dark coolness. Yeah, I like the, you know, sneaking off. I like that.

[00:19:17] It doesn't have to be a coat room. That just usually is where it ends up being. There you go. All right, Daphne, you're up. Okay, so I want to ask you guys, how many of, did either of you add no return to your playlist? Because I did.

[00:19:36] I did not. On Spotify, okay, because I love it. I just think it's very cool. But that is the song I'm picking for my number four. It's huge. Yeah, for number four. But I have listened to that song a million times, I feel like.

[00:19:54] It's not the original version that's on my list. It's Alanis Morissette's version. Because there's something about the song in particular anyway. And when you've heard it so many times, the minute it sounds different, it sticks out.

[00:20:12] And I remember watching that episode thinking, wait a minute, this isn't it. This isn't the song. What's going on? Why is this different? I loved it. I think it was season two, episode four is when they used it. I appreciated the tone. I liked the change.

[00:20:32] It made me think at the time, wow, this is really clever. The showrunners know that we're paying attention to every single thing that's going on. And we're gonna notice that this is not the normal song that we're hearing.

[00:20:47] And I really like that they took this chance, you know, to go with this because one, Alanis Morissette is one of the iconic singers of the 90s. As a female artist, she came out with Jagged Little Pill. It was a really big deal.

[00:21:06] It's still a really big deal. She was huge. And to be able to make that change. I have to wonder, though, if the showrunners, you know, they did it and they're thinking, well, did they notice? Will they notice it? Well, of course. Oh, yeah.

[00:21:26] You've trained us very well. We pay attention to the littlest things. You know, it's those little things. So, yeah. So that is my number four. I think we have to throw it back to the song that sets the tone for this show.

[00:21:43] And then the subtle change in having Alanis Morissette and her haunting vocals, you know. And it's played in a couple places, right? The original is played in another scene in season one. I can't remember what scene it was. Was it the chase scene? The car chase scene? No.

[00:22:05] I'm not sure. But it is, I think. And then so I wonder like what's, you know, what season three will hold? Like, are they going to keep playing around with that song? Because it's pretty cool. I would love that.

[00:22:20] I want them to pick more artists from the 90s to throw in like a Fiona Apple or like the Indigo. Yeah. Of course, I'm only thinking of women. But yeah. But I think that's a very female centered show. Yeah. That's part of what we like about it. Yeah.

[00:22:42] I like it. I think it's a great idea. They should definitely do it. So, Wendy, what's your number three? All right. My number three is song two by Blur. This song I was familiar with. I've always really liked Blur.

[00:22:58] They were on a soundtrack that I loved the song. I can't even remember what it was now. Cruel Intentions or something like that, which I was obsessed with. And then I just started going down a Blur rabbit hole. So I really like them.

[00:23:13] I think the song is used incredibly. It has this really softer intro and the song plays quietly in the background during a flashback. And the flashback is to health class in the 96 timeline.

[00:23:30] Misty asks Ben about the normal amount of blood that occurs during childbirth because, of course, she does. Misty. And then the music swells and the crescendo really hits just as we cut to Shauna screaming as she is giving birth in the wilderness.

[00:23:49] This was in season two, episode six. Loved it. I just thought that was such an intense scene and that song really brought us there. The song was written in 1997. My turn? Yeah.

[00:24:05] So my number three, and I know this would have been on Jason's list if he was with us tonight, Fade Into You by Mazzy Star. It's playing when Nat has her motel room meltdown, you know, when she's trying to get the bank to release information about Travis.

[00:24:26] And she yells, do you even believe in love? And, you know, she's throwing things around the room. It's an incredibly dark and sad scene. And the song is so beautiful, but so sort of eerie in its tone.

[00:24:46] The sentiment is, you know, just that somebody wants to love someone so much that they are part of them almost. The lyrics go, or some of the lyrics, I want to hold the hand inside you. I want to take the breath that's true.

[00:25:01] I look to you and I see nothing. I look to you to see the truth. You live your life, you go in shadows. You'll come apart and you'll go black. Some kind of night into your darkness colors your eyes with what's not there.

[00:25:17] And then, you know, fade into you, fade into you. It's a song of sadness and longing and maybe love, maybe unrequited love. It's kind of hard to know. And Juliette Lewis' performance in that scene, we've talked about it several times, is just phenomenal.

[00:25:36] And so raw and so hurt and vulnerable. And it just brought my respect for her to an entirely new level. It's an amazing scene. Yeah. That was hard not to pick as one of my top five. It's so good. Yeah.

[00:25:53] Especially on this show where, like I said earlier, music is a character. It directs you how to feel about something. Absolutely. It ties in so deeply. That is a great pick. Well, my number three was almost my number one, but there's just too many good ones.

[00:26:13] Bullet for Butterfly Wings by Smashing Pumpkins. I almost think I don't even have to even go into it because this is when the shit hit the fan, basically. And they're chasing Natalie with the intent of killing her and eating her. And it was in season two, episode eight.

[00:26:39] It chooses, you know, was at the moment that she was chosen not to be food, but then to be the antler queen? Did fate intervene at the right time? I think they wanted to believe that it chooses. Because if you don't believe that it chooses, then you chose.

[00:26:59] Yeah. Yeah. They have to do whatever they can to reconcile it within themselves. I mean, that's what people do. Yeah. I mean, it's terrible. Terrible, what happened to Javi. I'm still like, really. Yeah.

[00:27:17] I wasn't on the top five fucked up moments of but like, and I so when I was listening, I so wanted to be on it. And I said, like, at first I listed my five in priority. And then I got to thinking about it.

[00:27:34] No, I think Javi might be. I was, I was really torn between Javi dying, letting, letting Javi die being the top one or coach burning down the. Yeah. Yeah. But at first you think it like it didn't seem like that would be my order.

[00:27:55] But like, the more I thought about it, the more I'm like, no, that needs to go up. Yeah. This is a great scene because we, we kind of knew something was big was gonna happen.

[00:28:06] But we didn't know what like, we didn't know if Shana was gonna slit Natalie's throat. It was so I was on the edge of my seat. It was an episode where you almost couldn't breathe. Yeah, it just felt so tight.

[00:28:21] And you, you couldn't blink you didn't, you couldn't there were no distractions. It had to be, oh my gosh, and I think I watched this episode in the middle of the night. Oh my God. It was not the smartest thing to do because it's dark show.

[00:28:38] It could keep you up all night, you know, thinking about the things that happen. And there's something about that song to begin with and Smashing Pumpkins. They're no strangers to having the title be nothing that said in the song.

[00:28:54] But in this case, I mean, in spite of my rage or I think that's how it goes. In spite of my rage, I'm still just a rat in a cage. There's something about hearing that while she's running for her life. Yep.

[00:29:08] That just showcases the intensity of the situation. And the girls are hooting and hollering, like which brings us right back to the pilot. Opening scene. Yeah, very intense. Yeah, it's incredibly intense, incredibly scary.

[00:29:26] I'm still I know they were hungry, but I'm still it does not excuse it to me. She is. I hope I wouldn't do that. Yeah, it's crazy. So hard to know what you would do. I know without being in that situation. So that's my number three.

[00:29:46] Let's move back to Wendy for her number two. So that was my number two. All right. So I will go ahead with my last one and then I have an honorable mention that I can take the place of it. Cool.

[00:30:02] So my number one was Ready to Go by Republica. I knew it. I knew it. Like I've become obsessed with this song. Definitely wasn't aware of the song previous to the Yellow Jackets. And now it is on all my playlists. Love it. So good.

[00:30:23] There's multiple versions out there, too. Really? One that's like really rock sounding and one that has a bit more of a dance beat. Yeah, there are two versions. I added it to my workout playlist. It's a great like motivational workout. Get up that hill song.

[00:30:38] It plays in season one, episode four when Shawna and Adam jump from the bridge into the water. The song starts to play. It continues as the scene switches to the two of them making out by the car.

[00:30:53] I love that scene, which is probably also why I love the car. I love the song. I love that scene. I think it's an incredibly hot scene. The chemistry between Adam and Shawna is palpable. I loved that arc. I just loved the two of them together.

[00:31:08] I know we love Jeff, but I did love it. And I think so often we only see this type of chemistry or this type of scene on the screen with beautiful young, perfect people with perfect bodies acting fairly unrealistically.

[00:31:27] And I love that this could have been any one of us. It really represents flawed people with real bodies, and to me that's what makes the scene so good. And I think Hollywood has come to understand that that's really what we want to see.

[00:31:44] I mean, yes, beautiful people are beautiful to look at, but we also want to be able to identify with the characters on the screen. And I really love that that is happening in Yellow Jackets.

[00:31:59] These are people that we could see at the grocery store or people that we went to high school with, and I love that. Oh, I have a couple things on Republica. It was an English alternative rock band formed in 1994. The height of their popularity spanned from 96 to 99.

[00:32:20] This is the song they are most known for, and they are described as techno pop punk rock. I like that. Yeah, it's great. Wendy, you gotta hear the more techno version. It's really good. I'm gonna look for that after we get off.

[00:32:37] They went on hiatus for about seven years, but then they reunited. I don't know if they're still touring. Let's go see them. I'll go see that. Go see them in concert. Just for that one song. I'm sure I would like their other stuff, too. I like their sound.

[00:32:54] Have you listened to the album? Because the whole album is great. I think I listened to a couple, but this is what prepping for this episode has made me want to listen to all the albums of all these groups. Yeah, it's true. They have some great songs.

[00:33:14] They reminded me a little bit of Garbage. The album reminds me a bit more of Garbage, but I think you'll like it if you listen to it. My number two, and this was my number one when I first started prepping, but something took its place.

[00:33:35] It's Zombie by the Cranberries. It's such a powerful song. It's this protest song. Dolores O'Rourke's voice is anguished. It's powerful. It's a belted out song.

[00:33:52] I have a playlist called Fun to Sing Loud in the Car, and it's all songs like this where you just need to go full voice. You can't lightly sing Zombie. You have to fully get into it.

[00:34:08] It was written about the IRA bombing in England in 1993, but the way it's used in the show, it's more of an accusation to Nat. It's the beginning of the final episode of season two, and it opens on Nat's face and this song.

[00:34:29] Nat is clearly beating herself up about Javi's death. She's destroyed. Her face is so sad. All of them look exhausted and grungy. They're all starving.

[00:34:48] They're carrying Javi's body back, and we hear these accusations from the song over it in the snow and the mist and Javi's dead body. All of it is just such a powerful moment. I have put this song on so many playlists.

[00:35:07] I probably listen to it three or four times a day. It's one of my favorite car singing songs now because it's just so emotional, and it's fun to sing. There's the what's in your head refrain is just really fun to sing.

[00:35:26] It's an amazing, amazing use of music in that moment. I really like it too. It's definitely on my honorable mentions. Yeah, mine as well. Yeah. So good. All right, Daph. So my number two is Climbing Up the Walls by Radiohead. Oh, yes. Had to.

[00:35:50] This is the whole process of basically the funeral pyre for the newly or previously deceased, still deceased Jackie. After they find out that Shauna's been going and putting makeup on her, Taissa has a hissy fit,

[00:36:11] and they go ahead and build this fire, not realizing that the snow was going to come down and basically create an oven for her. And the lyrics at the end are like, I will eat you alive. I will eat you alive. I will eat you alive.

[00:36:29] I mean, she wasn't alive, but very apropos. Right. It's amazing how they find things that just go so well and sound goes so well as well.

[00:36:43] Just the whole time. And they're all dressed up in this, in these togas it looks like, like they're kings and queens eating at a feast.

[00:36:55] And it goes back and forth between this daydream or this, you know, vision of them doing that as, you know, all clean and beautiful, and then dirty and just grabbing at Jackie and eating her. Yeah.

[00:37:14] It just, that was when things really, I think, changed. That was a turning point. That episode, Edible Complex, was a turning point anyway, but this definitely pushed us down the road a ways.

[00:37:34] And I think Taissa being so judgmental in this episode of Shauna spending time with Jackie's body. And then I look at all the stuff that Taissa has done and I'm just thinking, you don't have any right to be judgmental of anyone.

[00:37:51] So yeah. So yeah, so that is my number two. And I'm secretly hoping that neither of you have my number one, but I'm starting to think maybe one of you does. But I guess we'll see. I'm gonna pick one that I don't think you guys have. Okay.

[00:38:11] It's Come Out and Play by The Offspring. That's in my honorable mention. There's something, yeah, there's just something about it. I love the band. Very familiar with them, listened to a lot of them. But I just love the scene. It's just perfect.

[00:38:31] It plays in season one, episode 10 as Natalie, Taissa and Shauna enter their reunion, stride through the parted crowd and Misty joins them. And it's just so badass. I love it.

[00:38:46] And I was thinking about that, like, they've chosen for the most part to stay in the town that this happened to them at, that they grew up in. But also that this thing that happened to them and made them infamous.

[00:39:00] They've chosen for the most part to stay there. And I can only imagine the whispers they heard behind their backs, the gossip, the people just rudely asking them questions. And so I kind of felt like this was like their FU to all those people.

[00:39:21] Like, we're striding in like the badasses that we are. And I just love that. I just love that scene. I thought that too. I felt like it was a shut the fuck up moment. Like, we're, we still rule this school. So, you know, shut up.

[00:39:40] And they're all dressed so fabulously. And they stride in with this incredible confidence that it really is a FU to everyone in the room. It's like, yep, we are untouchable. Yeah. Yeah, and each one is dressed in a way that really represents who they are, I think.

[00:40:00] Remember Jeff tried to get Shauna a different dress? Oh yeah, the yellow dress. Yeah, it was like a yellow knit jersey dress. And it didn't matter. But they come in and they are just in charge and standing tall. And this is after they have disposed of a body.

[00:40:21] Yeah. Poorly, as we later learned, disposed of a body. Without Misty's blessings. Yeah, they didn't follow directions. No. No. When Misty quickly tells you to do something and she gives you details of what you're supposed to do, you need to follow it to the letter.

[00:40:45] Yeah, she's done the homework. She knows what she's talking about. Exactly. All right, Wendy, that was great. Penny, what is your number one? Back to season one. I think it's episode two, Hold On, Wilson Phillips.

[00:41:05] We get it twice in the episode. First when there's a little bit of a flashback to Misty a couple years earlier being bullied by some mean girl.

[00:41:15] I think her name is Becky. And she's listening to Hold On in her pink, super girly bedroom. I think she even had lip phone. She did.

[00:41:27] Her telephone was a lips telephone. And it's such a I'm being bullied song, right? Like, you know, hold on for one more day, things will go your way.

[00:41:36] And then Misty's sort of hearing it in her head, or it's playing in the background. When she finds the flight transponder right after she's heard those girls saying, you know, like, wow, Misty's really stepped up and she's really impressive.

[00:41:51] And the song is playing and the lyrics are, don't you know, things can change, things will go your way. If you hold on for one more day, right? And so things are changing and going her way in that moment.

[00:42:05] And so she destroys the flight transponder and the music stops immediately. And it's like, all right, you're gonna have to hold on for a lot more than one more day. Because you've just ruined your chances of being rescued.

[00:42:19] And it's such a great moment where you go from like, this Misty chick is messed up to Oh, this Misty chick is messed up. Like, it's so much worse than we even knew. Yeah. Yeah. And it was shocking. Yeah, really shocking.

[00:42:40] I never thought that was gonna happen. Like she found it. And that was just the last thing I would have thought of.

[00:42:46] Yeah, like destroying your chance of rescue. Crazy person. She, you know, she's so self centered and, and I don't know what her mental disorder is. But like, she just doesn't have normal morals or goals or priorities. Yeah.

[00:43:05] I'm surprised that neither one of you picked this one. But I'm glad you didn't because I'm hoping it's one that I was torn. Okay, so my number one is a selection from season two, episode seven, lightning crashes by live. Yes. Didn't have that.

[00:43:26] Um, this is, this is the song that plays when Shauna is punching Lottie in the face. Oh, yeah. And this is Lottie showing that she's taking one for the team. By not allowing Shauna to hit anyone else, even though I think she wants to.

[00:43:50] It's really hard to watch Shauna basically letting loose and beating Lottie to a pulp. I mean, I still think Lottie healed relatively quickly considering the amount of damage that Shauna inflicted. Shauna had to deal with grief and guilt and these horrible feelings.

[00:44:14] And she took it all out on Lottie. It's all interspersed with the current timeline and they're drinking around the campfire and everything's lovely and they're happy and they're dancing.

[00:44:29] And then this in the past is, it's just, it's such a, not a disconnect, but it is such, it's so different. You're getting this light piece and then this dark, you know, vicious piece at the same time. Yeah, it was a vicious scene. It was. Hard to watch.

[00:44:53] It was, but the way they wove it all together made it almost beautiful in some weird twisted way. And it was shot beautifully. I remember the fires in the background and Shauna and Lottie are basically silhouettes and it's, it's almost elegant. But it's brutal.

[00:45:15] Yeah, it just, this was an episode that Sophie Nelise completely killed. She, I mean, she buried her baby basically. She, as the actress playing Shauna, going through those emotions of burying a baby basically under rocks and just exploding.

[00:45:40] And Lottie realizing that it had to be done and just letting her do it without fighting back. And no one did anything.

[00:45:48] It told us a lot about Lottie too, because I think up until the last few episodes, I feel like people really kind of painted Lottie as the villain.

[00:46:00] But I think we saw that in reality, she was trying to give and she was trying to help and maybe she made mistakes along the way, but her intentions were good. Yeah. Yeah, so that is my number one. This was a very hard exercise. It really was.

[00:46:18] Because I have a bunch of honorable mentions. Why don't we just keep going around for our honorable mentions? Okay. All right.

[00:46:28] So the first honorable mention I have is 17. I can't believe anybody picked it. I like, I was like, well, I know one of them is gonna pick it.

[00:46:36] By Sharon Van Etten. It's a 2019 song. First heard in season two, it plays over the opening of the premiere. And I love the song. Yeah, it's a beautiful song. Yeah. Penny?

[00:46:55] It's a twofer. But when we first get to see adult Van, and, you know, see what her life is like now, it's What's Up by Four Non Blondes, which is just so perfect for her. And the lyric is 25 years and my life is still trying to get up that great big hill of hope.

[00:47:15] Yes. It's just, it's exactly what's going on with her. Right? She's still stuck in that same place. And then the next morning she plays Your Woman by White Town as Van is waking up and it's all about like, you know, I can't be with you.

[00:47:35] The two of them together. So it's like, it sums up adult Van's life in a nutshell. It's beautiful. Absolutely.

[00:47:43] My first one is Kiss from a Rose. And this played during Doom Coming. They all sing it together as a group. They're all dressed in their best clothes. They are celebrating the fact that they may not survive because it's starting to get colder and they're thinking about, well, we're not going to get out of here, then we may die.

[00:48:10] So we might as well put on this prom. And so they sang the song together.

[00:48:18] First time we see Van and Ty taking their relationship public, for the most part. Very sweet. I have Angst in My Pants by Sparks plays as Misty and Walter explore their separate bed and breakfast rooms. I have added that to my workout playlist now. And it's, I love it. It's so Misty and Walter.

[00:48:44] It was so funny that they were both doing the same thing in their rooms. That was fantastic. Just parallel. It shows how similar they are. And it was a light scene that was needed. Yeah.

[00:48:58] I think for some people, it just doesn't play. It's too much of a change going from like Walter and Misty to everything else that's happening. But I really like it. I think it works. I do too. Yeah. Penny.

[00:49:13] My next one is Rump Shaker. It starts with the girls at the cabin and then shifts to reunion. And it's for me that song, Rump Shaker, is it's a time machine song. I am. Yeah.

[00:49:31] Back in my teenage years, I am partying. I'm singing it with my friends. It was just like hearing it on the show just brought me back to high school. Yeah. Amazing scene.

[00:49:47] So my next one is Mother by Danzig. And it is not even played that much in the actual episode. It's just the very end of season two, episode five when Shauna's going into labor. And it just Mother, it just captures everything right there. That's a great song too.

[00:50:09] I have The Killing Moon by Echo and the Bunnymen playing while we watch the cabin burn at the closing season two finale. Yeah. I don't think we get a lot of the song. No. But it's great. Yeah.

[00:50:25] Sometimes you don't need very much of it. You just need something that captures the tone. That song was in the episode earlier, but it was a cover. So it's in that episode twice. Oh, really? Yeah. I can't remember now who the cover is.

[00:50:43] I love that they play around with things like that. Me too. It's really cool. Wendy, Echo and the Bunnymen, I think you would like some of their other stuff too. I've definitely Yeah, I've, I've got Echo and the Bunnymen. Yep. They were very popular in college.

[00:51:01] All right, my next one is not technically from the show. But the season two trailer had a cover of the No Doubt song I'm Just a Girl by Florence and the Machine.

[00:51:16] And it is slow and eerie and evocative. And I was obsessed with it. And for the longest time, I couldn't find it like on any streaming service, but it's available now at least on Amazon Music. So it's out and I just I love the cover of it.

[00:51:36] And I remember when the trailer came out. It's Florence and the Machine. Oh, it is Florence. Okay.

[00:51:41] Yeah. Um, it's just it's such a powerful song. And in seeing the trailer, I was like, I can't wait for the season to start. I remember being just blown away by it. Remember we dissected it at length. Yeah. We were dissecting everything. Every single like, flicker. Yes.

[00:52:05] So my next one is Cornflake Girl by Tori Amos. Chorus, again, I feel like I picked songs that were these pivotal moments. But it's plays at the end. The lyrics are going, you know, this is not really happening. And Shauna puts the ear in her mouth. Oh, yeah.

[00:52:29] And that just, yeah. Such a great end to that episode. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

[00:52:37] I have Street Spirit by Radiohead plays when Natalie dies in season two starts when Misty hits her with the needle and goes throughout that scene. I really liked that one too. And I don't I don't think I was real aware of that song. I definitely listened to lots of Radiohead.

[00:53:02] That's a really dark song. Sad. That scene was really powerful. Sort of hard to take. Any more, Penny? Did we talk about Last Resort by Papa Roach? We briefly did.

[00:53:16] We mentioned it in the beginning, but we really I don't even think we said the name of the song. Yeah. Go for it.

[00:53:21] Yeah, that was definitely on my on my list. It's an amazing song that I was not aware of before. It came out in, I think, like 2000 or so. And I was in law school. I was completely cut off from like all pop culture when I was in law school. So I just never heard it. It's an amazing moment with Jeff in the car and he's, you know, he's just getting out all of his aggression. And it's very memorable.

[00:53:49] It's a favorite of my husband's. I'm sure. Yeah. It's got some testosterone in it. Daphne? So my next one is Inertia Creeps by Massive Attack. Season two, episode two. Basically, Tai as an adult is trying to stay awake. And she isn't doing a very good job of it.

[00:54:13] Yeah, it's not a song I was aware of until we saw it in the episode. I feel like this show just introduced some music to me that I hadn't really heard of before. Definitely.

[00:54:28] And I appreciate that. I know there's playlists on Spotify, at least, that have all of the music from the shows on it. They do and they add it every episode as soon as it's published. They add all the songs. It's like the official Yellow Jackets playlist on Spotify.

[00:54:46] So you don't miss it. What did we do in the days before the internet? Watching TV? I listened to Casey Kasem's Countdown with my tape recorder on voice. You had to get it. You had to get it right when it started.

[00:55:04] And God, if the DJ talked over the song. Yes. Oh, man. Yes, that's what I remember making mixtapes. I made mixtapes for my husband when I was in college. That is still around here somewhere.

[00:55:19] My last one is Seether by Veruca Salt. 1994 hit. It played in the scene where Misty is getting ready to meet Walter. And I like that song. I knew that song from previous. And that's my last one. Any more?

[00:55:39] I have my last one. It's just sort of a shout out to the score. It's not like any one particular song, but just the use of nonverbal vocalization and eerie sounds and drum beats. It's a fantastic score.

[00:56:01] I don't have the vocabulary to really talk about that kind of music. I don't know how to describe how it makes me feel, but it's so important to the show and to setting the mood and the pace. It's phenomenal.

[00:56:17] And I think it's different. And it's hard to be different in that genre because so often it's the same old stuff, which might work, but this works really well and it's different. Yeah, it's unique.

[00:56:31] Okay, my last one is Mother, Mother by Tracy Bonham. And was done in season one when Misty chops off Ben's leg. Such a great moment. I mean, she saved his life. I want to rewatch the whole thing again. It had to be done. We kind of paused.

[00:57:00] I had a feeling that bringing, having the three of us get together that we were gonna be feeling like we need to go back and watch again. I watched it, the whole thing when I had COVID in November, but I don't think I was very lucid.

[00:57:18] This is a show that I think it'd be interesting as to what you thought when you were watching it because... I mean, I think I was just having something on the background because I was bored silly. But I remember like, I went through all of them.

[00:57:37] There was one thing that I read when I was putting all my notes together. And it was this article that Pitchfork did interview that they did with the showrunners.

[00:57:52] And they basically, Anna said, it was like Radiohead and David Lynch made a theme song. That's what she thought of. And I, that stuck with me. I think it's cool that that's the way she looks at it because David Lynch is a very complicated director.

[00:58:10] His point of view is not always appreciated by the masses. But he's a cult favorite. Like people, I enjoy some of his movies, but not all of them. But I thought it's very, you know, that's an interesting way of describing the process.

[00:58:30] All right, well, let's take a break and we'll be right back. We got a decent amount of feedback for an offseason episode. So let's get started.

[00:58:59] All right, Alicia Stout writes in and says, hands down the best song of the entire series is the theme song. Not the original, but the one done by Alanis Morissette.

[00:59:10] Her voice is already unique and familiar to those of us who grew up listening to music in the 90s. Her version of the theme song is eerie, yet so, so satisfying. I absolutely love it.

[00:59:22] Secondly, I would have to say Lightning Crashes by Liv. It's Liv, not live, right? Liv. Especially during episode seven of the second season, Burial. That scene is just so awful and sad.

[00:59:36] I used to own that CD and I loved all of their music. Hopefully this SAG-AFTRA strike will end soon so we can get new episodes and more music. I just love the show. Buzz, buzz, buzz.

[00:59:49] All right, Erica Furter says, love this. Honestly, I love all the song choices.

[00:59:55] One, Bells for Her, Tori Amos. Two, Cornflake Girl, Tori Amos. Three, Mother, Mother, Tracy Bonham. Four, Number One Crush, Garbage. And five, Uninvited, Alanis Morissette. I can't believe any of us didn't pick Uninvited. I love that song. I know, it's perfect. I, yeah, love it.

[01:00:18] So, Lindsay Schlicht had the following. One, Bells for Her by Tori Amos. Two, Cornflake Girl by Tori Amos. I think she and Erica were on the same wavelength. Yeah.

[01:00:32] The first couple. Number three, Lightning Crashes. Number four, Bullet with Butterfly Wings, Smashing Pumpkins. And number five, Kiss from a Rose by Seal. Excellent choices. You really can't come up with five bad choices here. No.

[01:00:51] Mark McBurney says, excellent idea. I think he means doing a top five music episode. And in no particular order, Alanis Morissette, No Return, the theme song. Fire Starter by The Prodigy. Climbing Up the Walls, Radiohead. Something in the Way, Nirvana. Yeah, oh God, that's a great song. And Zombie by the Cranberries. Although, in particular order, this would be my favorite.

[01:01:19] James McNulty says, Mountain Song 17, I think. Cranberries, they use music so well. Even shit I don't particularly dig still hits me. And James, I believe, is either from Baltimore or lived in Baltimore. I saw a couple messages on the Facebook group.

[01:01:44] Yeah, there was a discussion about the fact that his name is James McNulty. And there's a Jimmy McNulty that's in The Wire. Yep. I still haven't watched all The Wire. Oh, love The Wire. I'm like through most of first season. I've never watched it. Don't feel bad.

[01:02:03] Oh, it's... I mean, I'm from Baltimore. I feel like I should. It's one of my favorite TV series, if not my favorite. That's what I've heard. Yeah, I went through all of West Wing. So like The Wire is my next one of those that I'm gonna do.

[01:02:20] So Josh West says, in no particular order, No Return, Never Tear Us Apart, Lightning Crashes, Zombie and Nouvelle Vagues, The Killing Moon. Right. That's who did the cover in that episode, Nouvelle Vague. Yeah. Oh, nice.

[01:02:40] David William Karner says, The women's vocalizing choir they have whenever quote wilderness stuff is happening is truly ominous. I love it. Yep. Connie S. Grimm says, 17 and the theme song No Return.

[01:03:00] Brittany Saroy says, Lightning crashes, climbing up the wall, 17, The World I Know by Collective Soul and Come Out and Play. I love The World I Know. That's another one I missed completely. Yeah. Rebecca Meese says, Bullet with Butterfly Wings, Zombie and Come Out and Play.

[01:03:24] Ansley Roberts says, Cornflake Girl, the main theme and its variations, Zombie, Mountain Song. There's too many to choose from. There sure is. Del Antonio says, Mother, Mother for sure. Yeah.

[01:03:42] Tara or Tara Morabetto Swingly says, The all-girl band from the bowling alley scene is called Necking and the song from the show is called Big Mouth. Their album is great. It's on Apple Music. Thanks for the tip. Great catch. Yeah.

[01:03:59] Sarah Saltzman says, Vienna. It was used so powerfully in the first season. Completely agree. Rachel Loren says, Poor Sucker. My gosh, I forgot about that one. That was around when they're all looking at Javi's body before Shana. Yeah.

[01:04:19] Lightning crashes, The World I Know, God is Alive, Magic is Afoot. Forgot that one. Climbing up the walls and Zombie. And that's our last one. Thanks for writing in everyone. That's awesome. Thanks, everybody. That was great.

[01:04:37] I think they there were a lot of similarities to the ones that we picked. So I think if people are listening to this episode, they're probably happy with what our selections were. So that's good.

[01:04:52] I love that we didn't have so much overlap between the three of us. I'm surprised. I know, I'm surprised. Yeah. Yeah, me too. Very little. That's good. All right. That's our show. Thanks for listening, everyone.

[01:05:16] We are going to keep posting offseason podcasts on Yellowjackets WTF. We don't know, of course, when new season three of Yellowjackets will come out, but we want to keep this podcast going.

[01:05:30] We have a couple ideas, but if you have any relative topics that you think would be good for us to cover, just shoot us an email or go to the Podcastica Facebook page or the Podcastica group and let us know.

[01:05:46] Yeah, people may not know that we have that Podcastica group, Wendy.

[01:05:51] Yeah, we have a Podcastica group. If you just look up Podcastica, you will find it on Facebook and it's absolutely free. There's nothing to pay to get into the group and people are posting in there. We post all of our podcasts. We ask for feedback for our podcasts ahead of time. It's really great.

[01:06:14] Yeah, there's always conversations that get started by people's comments and you learn interesting things. It's where we put up announcements about new podcasts that are coming out or interesting news that we have to share.

[01:06:29] And honestly, it doesn't even have to be on things that we're covering. We talk about everything nerdy. It's great. There's a lot of, hey, who else is watching this show? I love it. And a conversation starts.

[01:06:40] Sometimes that's how a podcast gets started. There are enough people talking about the show. That's how this got started. Daphne mentioned it and then I was like, I'll check it out. And then I watched it and I was like, Daphne, you're completely right. This show is unbelievable.

[01:06:56] I watched the first episode and that was it. It just spiraled from there. Wendy really pushed for us to do the podcast. I'm so glad. It's been really fun.

[01:07:06] I'm grateful that she did. One at a time, I pulled everybody over to the Yellow Jackets fandom. So I'm proud of that. Awesome. Thank you, Daphne, for that public service.

[01:07:18] If you want to write in or leave us a voice message, all our contact information is really easy to find at podcastica.com. And while you're there, be sure to check out our other shows.

[01:07:30] Wendy and I are on the Handmaid's Tale podcast together and we don't know when that's coming back. I'm doing The White Lotus with Jason and Randy and Jenny. I'm podcasting on it tomorrow. It's season one, episode five.

[01:07:48] I've never seen the show before, so I'm watching it with the podcast. So that's been a lot of fun. I think they're a great trio. Yeah, the coverage has been really fun to listen to. Yeah, yeah. Really fun to listen to. And there's so many podcasts.

[01:08:04] What else is going on, Daphne? What's going on with Run For Your Lives? Well, by the time this comes out, we will have released an episode on the movie 65, which came out, I think in June or July.

[01:08:20] And it's got dinosaurs in it, so you know I'm down for that. I saw your Barcelona bird box, but I haven't seen it yet. We were going to watch it at the beach, but my daughter-in-law's sister hadn't seen the first one.

[01:08:36] So we're like, well, we'll just watch both of them. So we watched the first one and then of course we were all tired, so we went to bed. So I still haven't seen the second one yet.

[01:08:46] The second one is definitely, well I'm not going to spoil anything. Check it out and let me know what you think. Yeah, we're going to watch it. Our next episode we're going to be covering a movie that maybe you have heard of. It's from 1980 and it's called Alligator.

[01:09:05] Oh yeah. Nice. Yep, Robert Forster. Yeah. I might have seen that in the theater. That was exactly the thing that me and my cousins would go see. We've been covering a lot of darker movies where, you know, really good conversations.

[01:09:22] We needed something that was a little more fun to cover, and so I always keep movies like this on a list just for those times. And so I pulled this one out and we actually recorded it last night, so I'm excited to get it out there. Good.

[01:09:41] I think that the Ahsoka podcast is dropping as well because that's something that's getting covered. Yeah, they dropped an introduction. Star Wars catching up. Yeah, they dropped an introduction episode where they just sort of talked about Ahsoka's backstory from before the series.

[01:09:57] And then the first episode's dropped this week and I think the podcast will be out in a few days. Penny, what are you podcasting about? Well, I am about to start a new podcast. It's called Still Slaying, a Buffyverse podcast.

[01:10:14] And Cara, who some of you might know from guesting on various podcasts, including this one, is going to join me. And we are going to re-watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer. We're doing something a little different than some other re-watch podcasts.

[01:10:31] We're going to skip the episodes we don't love and just talk about the really, really fun ones. And we would love for people to join us because it's going to be a good ride. And it's going to take a long time. There's seven seasons.

[01:10:43] Lots of Buffy fans in this group. I feel like it's going to be a trip down this nostalgia road by listening to it. I feel like I'm just going to listen to it and not re-watch the episodes just because it'll be cool to just be listening and think,

[01:11:02] Oh yeah, I forgot about that. It'll just be fun. Yeah, I think so. I'm going to try to watch it. Listener feedback. We are so here for that. We want to hear from people.

[01:11:14] I know that there are Buffy fans out there who are dying to talk about it. So if you know any of those people, tell them to join us because it's going to be fun. How many years has it been since it closed? The last season was 2004 or 2005.

[01:11:31] Really? Wow. It's been a while. Almost 20 years. And we'll probably cover Angel as well since that's the spinoff from Buffy. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. We've got to get through season one first. My husband got my daughter into that so much.

[01:11:48] And then she went to college and got all her college friends. I don't think they had much of a choice. They had to watch it. Fantastic.

[01:11:57] If you have enjoyed our podcast, we'd very much appreciate if you could leave us a rating or review on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. And thank you for that.

[01:12:12] Thank you. We love getting the reviews. It's such a nice energy boost when we get them. You know, Penny, it makes me laugh because in one of our reviews, someone asked if I was the Antler Queen. Oh, really?

[01:12:26] Because of my accent. I have a different accent and sometimes it comes out. And so, yeah, the person asked. Is Daphne the Antler Queen? Yes, because of the accent. And it made me laugh because it's like, nope. That's hilarious.

[01:12:48] I mean, we're all kind of the Antler Queen. The Antler Queen is everyone. I think so. That's normal that accents do that. So I grew up in very downtown Baltimore where you said, Baltimore hun, that's how you talked.

[01:13:05] And I went to school in Northwest Pennsylvania, which has its own dialect where there is no soda, it's only pop.

[01:13:12] And I remember my boyfriend at the time said when I would talk on the phone with my mother or my cousins, I would immediately revert to this Baltimore accent. That's normal.

[01:13:25] I grew up in the South and I used to have a little Southern accent and it would only come out when I was drinking. So when I was at a party or something, I would start talking like this and my friends would all be like, what is happening?

[01:13:40] Oh my gosh. Yeah, same thing. I'd come home to Baltimore and my Baltimore friends would be like, what is this Northwest Pennsylvania thing happening?

[01:13:51] I've grown up in New England. I've actually lived in Maine my entire life and I grew up very small town, actually an island very close to Canada.

[01:14:02] For a long time, I had a very thick Down East Maine accent until I started doing photography and one of my friends said, I can't understand what you're saying. I've worked really hard to kind of cover it somewhat, but when I get tired, things just come out.

[01:14:25] I've noticed also when you get really passionate about something, your accent comes out a little bit more. Yeah, you start talking faster and you're not catching yourself as much. I mean, that's normal. And Lucy loves your accent. So there's that.

[01:14:42] I know. I appreciate that. I really appreciate the love within this podcasting community that we have because there's just so much support. And, you know, it's interesting being a woman podcaster out there in the universe, knowing that you're being heard and you don't know who's listening.

[01:15:04] There could be, you know, anyone could be listening. And so having that support of everyone in our little group, it means so much. I feel like everyone's got my back and so it makes me deal with criticisms easier. Again, right there, easier.

[01:15:24] So no, accent's not fake. It's just I sometimes deviate from what I'm trying to cover up, I guess. And that was the longest closure ever. It was like the end of a Cher concert. We just kept coming back. Well, all right then. That is our show. Thank you.

[01:15:51] Thanks for listening.
