| 0:00.0 | Okay, everyone, so look at the numbers from Q1, and you'll see that there's a sharp... |
| 0:04.0 | Alex? Oh, I think you're frozen. |
| 0:06.8 | And that's why it's crucial that we mean... |
| 0:09.0 | E, that sounded important. |
| 0:11.0 | Because if we don't act now... |
| 0:13.0 | We've lost him. |
| 0:14.5 | Bring an end to work-call interruptions with EE Wi-Fi Enhancer. |
| 0:18.7 | More work from homers are choosing EE broadband, |
| 0:21.8 | the UK's fastest-growing broadband provider. |
| 0:25.0 | And he's back. |
| 0:26.4 | So I hope that was all clear. |
| 0:27.7 | To verify I see EE.oney. I am here today to talk about nobody wants this season two. It's a big day. It's a big show. I brought in the only person I can trust to talk about this with me. She is like Joanne, a professional podcaster. She is like Noah, a spiritual leader. It's Yassie Salak. Yassi, thank you so much for being here. Thank you so much for having me. Am I here because nobody else wanted to talk about it? Because literally nobody wants this. Absolutely not. This is a coveted spot. You had to elbow several people out of the way. As I said, this is a hit show. This is a monster production for Netflix. And so people are watching, people are talking about it. Thus, we must do the same. I can't wait. I have a lot of thought. I can't wait to hear them. I mean, I would hope if you are here listening to this podcast, you know what nobody wants this is in season two, the continued adventures of Noah and Joanne, Hot Rabbi, and I would say Hot Mess, respectively. There's a lot happening. There's a lot happening in the season. There are a broadening of horizons. There are new characters introduced. But what was your introduction to the show? |
| 1:44.5 | Yassi? How were you feeling coming into season two? What was your background with this show? |
| 1:48.1 | I definitely watched the first season sort of like I would assume how many people did, which is like with |
| 1:53.9 | no context or background. Like I'm sure a lot of people came because it was popular, but like I just like |
| 1:59.1 | threw it on. Did it, I have brain damage in terms of memory. Don't we all? Was it like around a holiday that it came out? This is a great question. It feels, and maybe this is just me in the present tense, like a fall, cozy core kind of show spiritually. Yeah. But I honestly couldn't tell you. But I loved it. I was like, oh my God, my boyfriend, Seth Cohen is finally back in my arms. So excited. I love Kristen Bell. So I really enjoyed the first season. First season, like, it's hard. It's hard to write it off in a way. There was something undeniable about that chemistry, about how comforting it just feels to lock in, which is odd when you |
| 2:35.8 | consider the context in which it was made. The more you hear about it, it's like no one making |
| 2:40.6 | this show seemed to have any idea what they were making, what the tone of it was going to be, |
| 2:45.6 | whether all the pieces were going to work. And I think it works just because they work. |
| 2:49.7 | Like that central relationship drives so much |
| 2:52.3 | of season one. It makes it like it just, it felt so lived in right away. Yeah, it's like a charisma |
| 2:57.2 | factory also. It's like these people are just, you want to watch them, you want to hear them talk, |
