This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

Hi, I'm Kristen Davis, and I want to know, are you a Charlotte?

You guys, we've just been chatting up the storm and missed some good things because we have the incredible Evan Ross Cats.

So exciting.

I've been wanting you on for a long time. We text on

Instagram sometimes. And he's been so sweetly like, yes, call me. So finally, it has worked out.

Well, I'm a fan not only of sex in the city and in just like that, but I'm a huge fan of this

podcast. So I feel like I'm in like the belly of the beast that I love so much.

Thank you. I feel like you are a pioneer. And as we were briefly talking about, we need to discuss.

Like, I'm so fascinated. We are in the wild, wild west of podcasting. And you have just gotten this big Netflix deal. And I need to hear all about it. Is it shut up Evan or is it the rewatch or is it both and what's happening?

Yeah. So it's a new iteration of my previous podcast, Shut Up Evan. And it's kind of like an expanded version. So it's now going to be two times a week. One episode is going to be a traditional

long form interview with a celebrity. Okay. As it's existed for years. Right. The new version is a panel show with a rotating panel of three celebrities, pop culture experts, comedians, New Yorkers, et cetera, talking about the weekend pop culture. So we'll pick like five topics. For instance, like this week we talked about Lena Dunham's Famicic and Coachella and all the things that are happening. Cool. And then we'll pick like some shows, like Love on the Spectrum that we're going to talk about. And it's just three panelists and myself gabbing about pop culture. When you're recording, are you filming it differently, knowing it's going to be on Netflix? How does that work? I think in general there's a cognizant. And this is not even just because of the Netflix, but also just in terms of like, you know, we're altering our approach to how we do things in real time and we're, you know, reacting to the culture. I think that I used to have a more critical lens in general around how I viewed things because that's just my brain, I have a little bit of a negative brain where when I watch something, I'm like, here are the four things that didn't work. And then I'll watch it again and I'll start to see,

okay, the thing I thought didn't work was actually a choice that I actually think improves upon.

This makes, this other thing makes sense. I love that. So as such, I think my approach now is to be

a little bit more gentler and to consider less how I feel about it and more what do I think this person whether it be the artist or the director what do I think they were trying to say right well that's an amazing level of introspection in terms of your opinion which I think is so

powerful and needed out there in the cultural conversation.

Thank you.

Because I feel like with social media, which obviously when we started making Sex and City,

there was no social media, there was not even email as we come to in this particular season,

which I have never laughed so hard.

I do not remember these things.
