Hello, hello, everybody, and welcome back to another episode of Fluently Ford.

We have on a return favorite guest, the lovely Kelly from Beyond the Blinds and Nostalgia and Now, which is back on the air. Welcome back to Flulently Forward, Kelly. How you doing? I'm so excited to be here. I said to Blair right before I hopped on, I'm like, it's been a minute. I'm so excited to record with Shannon again. I know. It's

been so long. And, you know, we actually aren't even going to be covering blind items, really,

for this episode. But I knew that I had to have you on because I have wanted to do an episode about

cat conspiracy theories for a really long time. I almost feel like each animal could have its own

conspiracy theory episode, but something about

cats, and I say this not as a cat owner, but I know you have two, which is why you're here.

Yeah. Something about cats. First of all, let's talk about the pop culture of cats, because within

the past month, Dochi, Paul Mescal, and Jesse Buckley have all made anti-cat comments.

Do you care to comment on their anti-cat comments?

Listen, I'm sick of the cat.

Hey, I'm sick of people being able to be like cats are nasty.

Granted, should that cat have been shitting on Jesse Buckley's pillow?

No, that's gross.

Oh, wait. That was, okay, so I had only seen the

clip where her and Paul Meskoll were doing like promo or press tour for their movie or something. And she said that she was dating her now husband and said he had to get rid of the cats and he did. I didn't know that there was a reason for it. I thought she just didn't like the cats. I was kind of like, he should be getting some heat too since he got rid of the cats, you know, but it's so crazy to me that like, I like dogs. I'm not going to say I love dogs. I like dogs. But like, you know, a dog will jump on you and their owner will be like, oh my God, he never does this or oh my God, he's so excited, just tell him down. But when people really hate cats, it's like a cat walks into a room and they're like, oh, my God, I hate cats. I don't know what to do around them. It's like, you could just sit there and like not say anything and a cat's probably going to ignore you. Yeah. It's very interesting because I sometimes am a little bit skittish around cats, but that's also because I don't know what to do with them.

But the more I learn with cats, it's like you don't do anything, which is very interesting.

Like the rules are there are no rules.

When in doubt, just don't fuck with a cat, kind of.

Exactly.

I always joke that, like, in my home, the energy of like like, a high energy dog would just be too much. Like, when I go home, I like to become, and like, Joeline and Gale, they'll get a little crazy here and there. But, yeah, I just, I don't understand how it's so easy for people to be like, cats are awful, cats are this, but, like, your dog just bit me, but he's just excited.

Don't even get me star. It's so, it's so wild. The absolute publicist twist that dogs get
