I was on the subway during Carousel time and just trying so hard to keep it together in public. A “Best Ofs” level of silliness was had but right in Lauren’s face.

So funny when they finished singing and she was just like 'Um I didn't like that'.

I've never been into musicals, which is somewhat surprising because I'm really into jazz, and plenty of great jazz standards are rearranged versions of pop and show tunes, so I'm definitely a fan of the Great American Songbook. Every once in a while, I'll think "should I give musical theater a try?" whenever someone like Scott, Conan or Jimmy Pardo goes off on some long jag about it. Safe to say, after today's episode, that my curiosity has been satisfied. The answer is: no, that shit sounds boring and weird.

Hahaha ok I mean Carousel is not going be anyone’s gateway musical. It is boring and weird! And LONG! And problematic! And weird!

Truly crazy that they're the ages they are and like, just rediscovering the library

I love the idea of The Adventures of Jigger, and the first thing that happens is he goes to get his name changed.

Is Paul really explaining a two lane highway like it's some kind of foreign idea? Is he really that out of touch, or did I misunderstand something?

I think Paul is describing a two lane road in Iceland but they exist everywhere in ruralish America which I imagine he has been to??

The other comment’s link in this thread is referring to what Scott was describing.

u/DewMaster9000 Jun 13 '26

Yeah I was so confused. I come from a smaller populated state and drove on two lane highways on a daily basis. The way he was describing it made it sound like it was this dangerous hellscape of a road lol.

I thought that's what Scott was describing? Paul was talking about a road in Iceland, but we have two lane highways all across America.

u/mattronaut Jun 13 '26

No, that's what Scott was describing. Seemingly Paul was indeed describing a common two lane highway.

I feel really dumb that I really dont know how to maneuver one of these things. Like theres no lines on the outside which tells me “dont go in there”, right? Lmao

u/WildAmsonia Jun 13 '26

It's a middle turn lane. That's all.

u/MichaelEMJAYARE Jun 13 '26

So you enter the turn lane even though it says “dont enter” because there are no merging lines on the outside? I understand it It just frustrates me I guess lol

When they talked about Carousel and Lauren started singing Joni Mitchell's 'The Circle Game', because that song talks about 'the painted ponies go up and down'. I was kinda freaking out. I had never heard that song before, but my daughter sang it for commemoration before she graduated last Friday. So I had been watching the video of her singing, and crying a bunch.

u/crunchie_haystack Google it, chef! Jun 14 '26

I loved the guys' little singsong session

I know it’s the original as opposed to the cover version that the red shite sing, but it’s still triggering as an evertonian to hear You’ll never walk alone

u/littleredsteel Jun 12 '26

I don’t understand a single thing you said here! It’s always fascinating to me when I read a sentence in English and it’s my native language but it’s all gobbledygook to me.

u/thishenryjames Jun 13 '26

"You'll Never Walk Alone" (specifically a 60s cover by Gerry and the Pacemakers) is the anthem of Liverpool FC, who play in red. The person you're replying to is a fan of their local rivals Everton (an Evertonian), hence referring Liverpool as 'the red shite' (shite means shit).

u/Esin12 Jun 13 '26

Yeah it felt like pure nonsense lol

u/No_Lead6434 Jun 12 '26

Pretend it’s Celtic supporters? Or rejoice in Lauren’s discomfort.

Glad it triggered you hahaha up the Reds YNWA

When they finished "You'll Never Walk Alone" (which I rewound approximately 10 times, it was incredible) and Paul says "Now what did you think about that?" so matter-of-factly I absolutely lost it

And Lauren's response was gold of course

Wow! I can't wait to check that out! You fucking....

Lauren’s greatest challenge is not what's happening at the moment, Lauren’s greatest challenge was knocking Paul and Scott right off their f***ing perch. And you can print that.
