So Taylor is complaining about all the new troubadours

By the way, for those young

1:25

kids listening in at Neil

1:27

Young, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young sold out

1:29

stadiums. They were like the

1:31

Taylor Swift of their day. They

1:34

sold out stadium after stadium

1:36

after stadium after stadium. They were getting

1:38

one hundred thousand, eighty thousand was

1:40

amazing, And they were a folk

1:43

folk rock band. They walked out there

1:45

with acoustic guitars and they

1:47

sang these beautiful harmonies and these great songs.

1:51

Just for your ratification, Suzanne French, you

1:54

are up to the plate.

1:55

Alrighty Taylor steps out of Luke's Diner

1:58

to announce something to the Troubadours, and

2:00

he says, I would just like to say that there is no

2:02

bigger fan of music than the man standing before

2:04

you. No memory is more precious

2:06

to me than the one of my father taking me to the

2:08

Hartford Civic Auditorium to see the great

2:11

Pat Boone. Pat

2:13

Boone is a singer, actor, and composer.

2:27

Did you know?

2:27

He was the former next door neighbor of

2:30

the Osborne and Sharon Osbourne. His cover

2:33

of crazy Train was used as the theme

2:35

for the Osbourne's TV show, Oh I

2:37

didn't.

2:37

Know, That's super cool?

2:39

Yeah, man, God,

2:41

I love that show. At Home with the

2:43

Osbourne's.

2:44

Oh, the good show.

2:45

I love I love that house.

2:47

Wasn't that the first reality

2:49

show?

2:50

One of them? I think so?

2:51

Yeah?

2:52

Like Family, Yeah.

2:53

That Lepardy reality.

2:55

Yeah, that was, yeah show, it was.

2:58

He's so fun to watch. That family

3:00

was so fun to watch. Oh yeah, oh

3:03

man. Anyway, Luca is looking

3:05

for Laurel I and asked Patty where she might be.

3:07

Is Laura I pretends not to

3:09

be home, hiding in Rory's room, Luke, No, she's

3:12

not. At the end, I tried the n miss Patty. Well,

3:15

I don't know, you know, half the people's half

3:18

the time people speak to me. I'm thinking about

3:20

Beryshnakov. Did you see Turning Point?

3:24

In Turning Point nineteen seventy seven, films centered

3:26

on the world of ballet in New York City. The film

3:28

stars Sheerlan McLay and Anne Bancroft, along

3:31

with Leslie Brown and Mkale Berishnikoff

3:34

and Tom Scarett. The film

3:36

was nominated for eleven Academy

3:39

Awards, including Best Picture. Did

3:41

you know? Mikhal Berishnikoff played Carrie's

3:43

boyfriend Alexander Petrowski

3:46

on season six of six in the City.

3:49

I did not watch that show, so I did not know

3:52

that. Susane

3:54

Froch.

3:56

After being shown the building that is going to have her

3:59

name across the front of it, Rory decides

4:01

that she would like to leave. Laura,

4:03

I says, honey, come on, we have teased you way worse

4:05

than this before. Remember when you were ten and

4:07

you thought you discovered You Two?

4:10

That was a good one.

4:12

Yeah. You Two

4:14

are an Irish rock band formed in Dublin nineteen

4:16

seventy six. The group consists of Bono

4:18

the Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Junior.

4:21

Did you know?

4:22

Bonna was the only person who has been nominated

4:24

for an Oscar Grammy, Golden Globe and

4:27

for the Nobel Prize.

4:28

Wow, Emily

4:33

Richard are discussing how oh, I'm

4:36

so sorry, Taras.

4:37

Oh, It's cool, it's you sure?

4:39

Apology?

4:40

Yeah, all right?

4:40

There are a lot of musicians. In this episode, I just I

4:43

mean, we're just realized. Emily

4:45

and Richard are discussing how funny Lenny's

4:48

mother is. Emily says, it's

4:50

so important to find someone who can make you laugh.

4:52

I was always so envious of Johnny Carson's

4:55

wives. I just thought these women must do

4:57

nothing but laugh all the time. Johnny

4:59

Carson and was a television host, comedian,

5:01

writer, and producer. He's best known

5:04

as the host of the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.

5:06

Carson received six Primetime Emmy

5:08

Awards, the Television Academy's nineteen

5:11

eighty Governor's Award, and the nineteen eighty

5:13

five Peabody Award. And did you know

5:16

When he announced his impending

5:18

retirement, there was fierce competition

5:20

between David Letterman and Jay Leno

5:23

to be his Tonight Show successor.

5:25

Leno eventually won the coveted spot,

5:27

and an angry Letterman moved over to

5:30

rival networks CBS to host

5:32

a competing show

5:35

Boor.

5:35

David was angry. Yeah,

5:38

he was really pissed, wasn't. He was very pissed,

5:40

But he wasn't. He wasn't like he

5:43

wasn't the right DNA for the Tonight

5:45

Show.

5:46

Well, Andrew he had his own success, so

5:48

I feel like it worked out.

5:49

I mean, he had a whole He had a completely

5:51

different demeanor as a ka. I mean,

5:53

he was just like mean to people, you

5:56

know, that was his stick. He would just like make

5:58

people feel like crap all the time, and then they'd

6:00

come back with zingers and that would be his

6:03

you know, his ratings. That's the controversy

6:06

that because he was so nasty to people

6:08

all the time. I remember when Cher told him to

6:10

go f himself unlick.

6:13

Oh sure, now I have to look

6:15

it up.

6:16

Oh yeah, Shaer like he was messing

6:18

with Cher because that was his stick.

6:20

He just he was just completely rude and

6:23

condescending and nasty to people. Johnny

6:26

Carson was the opposite of that. He made Johnny

6:29

Carson made his guests look

6:32

great all the time.

6:34

That was his gift. He knew how

6:36

to get out of the way. He removed

6:38

his ego and he's

6:41

It always seemed like Johnny loved

6:43

his guests and they were the funniest

6:45

people in the world, and they were the most talented people

6:48

in the world. And he made those people

6:50

feel comfortable and great

6:52

and they told great stories. Because he you know,

6:54

he knew that they were nervous coming on, and

6:57

Letterman used that against people, He

6:59

used their against them.

7:02

So I think that's primarily the

7:04

reason why Letterman lost out on that.

7:06

I don't know if anybody cares about my I

7:12

have a question for you guys. Who wrote the Tonight

7:14

Show for Johnny Carson? Johnny

7:17

Carson's Tonight's Show theme song?

7:19

Oh,

7:23

I don't know, Doc

7:25

Severnson.

7:27

He was a conductor.

7:29

He was he was the Tonight Show band, the leader of the

7:31

Tonight Show Band.

7:33

Uh, I have

7:35

zero I don't even know the theme song. Sorry,

7:38

it was lorelized

7:40

dog. Paul anka Way

7:43

wrote the theme song.

7:45

Comes backing.

7:48

It all comes back to who's

7:52

up? Does that mean? Okay? Taylor still

7:55

complaining about the troubadours in town.

7:58

He runs into Officer Rusk and

8:00

ask him to do something about Taylor.

8:03

That's right, It wasn't Officer Fife. Why did I

8:05

call him Officer Fife? Taylor?

8:08

Well, then line them up and have him follow you

8:10

to jail. Officer Rusking, Well, I could do that, but

8:12

it's single cell that

8:15

it holds two maybe three if

8:17

they aren't fat, And we don't have any food

8:20

Taylor, Oh forget it. Barney Fife

8:22

Bernard Barney Fife as a fictional

8:25

character from The Andy Griffith

8:27

Show, portrayed by the

8:29

brilliantly talented comedic actor

8:31

Don Knotts. One of the funniest and most endearing

8:34

characters in television history was Barney

8:36

Fife. Barney Fife is a deputy

8:38

sheriff in a slow paced, sleepy

8:40

southern community of Maybury, North

8:43

Carolina. Did you know? Don don

8:45

Knotts stopped being a regular on The Andy

8:47

Griffin Show after nineteen sixty

8:49

five because originally the show's producers had

8:52

intended to end the series after that year. Still

8:54

at a creative and popular peak, don

8:56

Knotts had already signed a multi

8:58

picture deal with the Universal Studios. And

9:00

I saw and he did a fish called it

9:03

was the Mister Limpet Film. Yeah,

9:06

mister Olympet. We went to see that when I was

9:08

a kid, not sidor.

9:10

He sent mlt you to Universal Picture. When

9:12

Griffin relented to network pressure

9:16

and kept his show on the air for

9:18

several more years, Don later

9:21

said that he deeply regretted having to leave

9:23

the show, but his film commitments

9:26

prevented him from continuing as

9:28

a cast regular. Nice problem

9:31

to have.

9:32

Yeah,

9:42

Emily is trying to set up Christopher

9:45

and Lenny.

9:45

Christopher follows Laurel into the bathroom looking

9:47

for an escape plan. Says,

9:50

out of what?

9:51

Christopher says, what do you mean?

9:52

Out of what?

9:53

This is a setup? So it seems

9:55

I can't believe Emily would do this. Laurel

9:57

I says, you're talking about Emily Dickinson, right, because Emily

9:59

Gilmour was made to do this. Emily

10:04

Dickinson was a poet little

10:06

known during her life, she has since been regarded

10:08

as one of the most important figures in American

10:11

poetry. Did you know Emily

10:13

Dickinson wrote over eighteen hundred poems

10:15

in her fifty six years of life. However,

10:17

only ten of those poems saw the light of day

10:20

in publications.

10:20

Is that that's the way it goes?

10:22

Man?

10:24

All right?

10:25

Christopher believes Lorelei's being no

10:27

help.

10:27

Laura I said what I do? Christopher

10:30

said nothing. You're just sitting there. You're not saying

10:32

anything. Laurlai says, what are you

10:34

talking about? When mom said, doesn't he look like Carrie

10:36

Grant?

10:36

I said yes.

10:39

Carry Grant was an actor best known for comedy

10:41

comedic and dramatic roles such as

10:43

Bringing a Baby, The Philadelphia Story,

10:46

An Affair to Remember, and Charade.

10:49

Did you know that Carrie became a father for the first

10:51

time at the age of sixty two with

10:53

his fourth wife, Diane Cannon, who

10:56

gave birth to their daughter, Jennifer

10:58

Diane Grant on February twenty sixth,

11:00

nineteen sixty six.

11:03

Diane Cannon What a great actress. She

11:06

could do anything, drama, comedy. She

11:09

was in a film with gud

11:11

Was that Warren Batty film with Charles Groden

11:13

and Diane Cannon where

11:16

seems like gold times? No, no, no, where

11:18

he was? Warren Batty

11:21

was a quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams.

11:24

Wait Kevin can wait? Yeah, Yeah,

11:26

she was fantastic in that film.

11:29

Yeah, that was a good movie.

11:31

Laurel's attempt to save Christopher turns

11:33

into Laurele I asking

11:35

a lot of obnoxious questions.

11:37

Laurel Lenny as a psychologists

11:40

12:34

It has said that during some scenes James

12:36

Gandelfini inserted a small

12:38

stone and his shoe to anger him,

12:42

making him play the role of Tony

12:44

Soprano more authentically. He would

12:46

also stay awake all night for

12:49

some of the breakfast scenes to

12:51

achieve a tired look. Yeah, he

12:53

would also stay away. It means he

12:55

partied all night and he didn't do it,

12:59

just went out, had a good time. Well,

13:02

14:30

14:30

14:34

14:44

Carolyn says okay. Laura says

14:47

me, yeah, Yeah, I'm good. It was really nice

14:49

meeting you. Sorry if I talked too much during dinner.

14:51

Every now and then, I just feel the need to reenact

14:54

certain key scenes from Purple Rain. Purple

14:58

Rain is in nineteen eighty four rock musical

15:01

films, scored and scored

15:03

by and starring Prince in his acting

15:05

debut. Developed to showcase his talents,

15:08

it contained several concert sequences

15:10

featuring Prince and his band The Revolution.

15:13

Did You Know?

15:14

Albert Magnoli told

15:16

Rolling Stone that when the concept was

15:18

first brought to Warner Brothers, they suggested

15:21

that John Travolta plays Prince.

15:24

I can't picture that.

15:26

You know what, he probably could

15:28

have pulled off.

15:30

I mean he could, but I feel like it wouldn't

15:32

have the same effect that the film

15:34

did.

15:35

So so he would, but

15:38

it would be it would have been.

15:39

What it would have been. It would have been.

15:43

But it was, but they would have John

15:45

Travolta being print yeah.

15:47

And singing those songs.

15:50

No, Ama, No,

15:53

that would have been John Travolta with like a

15:55

different band, right, I

15:58

mean Ton had.

16:02

Prince's band.

16:05

What what year was Grease? Because was

16:07

is it kind of like right after seventy?

16:10

That was in the seventies?

16:11

Yeah, five, But they're probably coming

16:13

off of like, oh, he's a big star

16:16

from Greece, you know.

16:19

I don't know actually, but to tell.

16:21

The Prince story with John Travolta, I

16:23

don't know. Was Prince any good in

16:25

Purple Ring?

16:26

Well?

16:26

They said it was his acting.

16:28

I mean I don't remember it, but I've

16:30

seen it, but it's

16:32

Prince like it's but maybe it's

16:34

because it's his acting debut.

16:36

So they were like, does he actually have the skills to act?

16:40

So that's my guess.

16:41

So he probably was already hired to

16:43

score the film.

16:44

I think John Travolta would have been a much better choice.

16:47

That's really Yes, he's

16:49

a fantastic actor.

16:51

But.

16:53

He could have pulled on he could have pulled off the

16:55

dancing, obviously, he could have done

16:57

the singing. Yeah, and it would

16:59

have would have been a better acting performance.

17:02

I mean, Prince isn't an actor. You

17:04

can't just step into a lead of a

17:06

film and you know, expect

17:08

to do what a John Travolta can do.

17:10

I just don't think that those songs would

17:13

be as big today.

17:15

If it was John Travolta could.

17:16

Have been bigger. Maybe

17:19

we would have been taught.

17:21

We'll never know, we'll

17:26

know.

17:28

That's interesting.

17:29

You're making a good effort there, But yeah.

17:32

It's hard. It's hard for John Travolta

17:34

to push the Prince brand, which is the point

17:36

of him starting the movie. Yet Rory

17:39

is sending Logan off to London with a couple of tears.

17:41

Rory, I keep trying to think of

17:43

fabulous things to say, but all I can think is

17:46

say hi to William and Harry for me.

17:49

Logan says, I love you. As William, Prince

17:51

of Wales is the heir apparent of the British throne.

17:53

He is the elder son of King Charles the Third and Diana,

17:56

Princess of Wales. May she

17:59

rest in peace. Prince Harry

18:01

is William's younger brother, who left the

18:03

royal family in

18:06

two thousand and twenty. Did

18:09

you know a few days ago Harry lost his legal

18:12

challenge to have police security in the UK. Duke

18:14

of Sussex had argued that

18:16

he should have automatic protection for himself

18:18

as his family whenever they've visited the UK

18:21

from their home in California.

18:23

He still has the title, but not officially.

18:27

They can't call him royal anymore

18:32

except a royal pain

18:34

in the tushy?

18:35

Do you what I just recently learned about?

18:38

I learned that the royal family doesn't

18:40

really have last names, Like

18:42

they're a part of a house, Like he's a part of

18:44

the Windsor house, but like his name's

18:46

not like Harry Windsor.

18:49

Yeah, I did not.

18:50

I was, I guess if your royalty

18:52

you don't need it?

18:53

Yeah, because it's you're gonna get confused

18:55

with anyone else. Duke of Sussex, I

18:57

guess is your title? But yeah, I was like I was looking

18:59

it up. I'm like, what's the last name?
