[00:00:01] Speaker A: So yeah, when I have a thought. [00:00:05] Speaker B: I gotta let it out It's a bright spot that I can't even doubt. [00:00:12] Speaker A: My opinions, my point of view Even if things are a little tripped and. [00:00:16] Speaker B: Sweet so, yeah, even if you disagree so, yeah, even if I'm not in your pedagree so yeah, especially if you agree. So yeah. [00:00:38] Speaker A: Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever and whenever you're listening to it. Welcome to the so yeah podcast with your hostess with the mostest, Caroline M. Diamond. And I'm coming to you quickly, quickly, with the quickness after the super bowl because obviously, like, I needed to talk about it. Me talking crazy, but obviously I needed to talk about it because my husband had buddy baby headlined the super bowl halftime show. And he killed it the way that I knew that he would kill it. First of all, this man is so hot. I'm not, like, trying not to, like, make it, you know, for the woman gays, but I'm gays in and I'm goosen and he is so hot. I just, like, can't, like, the minute that I saw his face, I was like, wow, drop the skincare routine, babe. Like, I need it. Him getting that buckle fat removal, like, in 2019. Best thing he ever did for himself anyway. So, yeah, I thought it was, like, really amazing. And I knew that some people don't know about Bunny. And you're late because I've been here. I've been here. And he's all. He's always been incredibly political. He's always been very welcoming on all types of walks of life. He LGBT community, women. Like, everybody is included in his narrative. And I'm so happy that obviously, like, he included that in his halftime show because obviously, like, walking it. He had a target on his back, literally. Sometimes when you have a target on your back, a lot of times people will, like, will retract and not go as hard. But he went hard. He went even harder. I love how, you know, it opened up in, like, the sugar cane fields and, like, really showcasing the full diaspora of Puerto Rico and being Latin in general. There were so many different, like, scenes and aesthetics that happened. Like the nail salon, like, the bodega. Like, there were so many notes in there. And I thought that it was, like, beautifully executed. I thought that the star of the show truly was the set design. I love that there were so many different worlds and people walking through and you could like, really make it as, like, world building as possible. I love that the. The grass were people. Those are some field performers, baby. I am a stalk of grass. I'm a stalk of grass. At the Bad Bunny performance, I would have honestly been living put that resume. Thank you very much. Obviously, like, I know Mad Buddy's music. A lot of people are like, I don't know any of these songs. I'm like, you're late. But I knew all of those songs. And it was so funny at the Watch party that I was at. Our TV doesn't really go up that high, like in volume. And I was just like. I was singing just silently to my miming it. I was like. Because I didn't want to, like, you know, absorb the sound. But I was shaking my tail feather. I was shaking that ass hard as I knew I would be. I do think for me personally, I didn't love all the styling for it, especially the first girls number with like the white tops and like the brown little skirt. I thought it was just a little like lackluster. And I thought that, like, I didn't think his outfit was bad per se, but I just thought again, I felt like a little lackluster with it because he's a. He's a Luke guy. He's a Luke King. And I just feel like it didn't. I don't know, it was just kind of. I thought he looked good, but I didn't think he looked great. Yeah, that's what I'll say about that. I did really like the choreography. I know it was like a collaborative choreo experience. And I'm really glad that Charmed did not single handedly take the reins on the whole project. Do you think there were a little too many dancers in total? Because some. Some of the parts I was just like, whoa. Like, I think that the whole thing could have been with 40 less dancers. And that's just me personally. Like, am I happy that dancers got paid? Of course I am, duh. But it just felt like a little like too much at times when I think that if you scaled it back, I would have been able to see it more. And that was such a. A lot of everybody who was at my house was like, no, I disagreed. I'm like, okay, even if this. But wow, it was just so beautifully done. I. Going into it was like, I don't want to see a singular white person on that stage. And I almost got my wish. And the worst part of that performance was Gaga being up there. What the was she doing there? Die with a smile. Salsa version, Please. I mean, she looks beautiful. Okay, great. Why was she there? I didn't need that at all. I like had to look up a couple, like, fan theories that people were thinking about, and none of them really, like, made sense to me. Like, of course, Bad Bunny's a little monster who isn't like, also, like, inviting the white people into this. Like, they're in no way, shape, or form was that absolutely necessary. And you had the pickings of so many people you could have brought out there, and y' all don't even have a song together. I think that if they did that performance at the Grammys, that would have been amazing. I just don't think that the super bowl was, like, the time nor the place to, like, do Die with the Smile salsa version, which is with Bruno Mars. Like, I just, like, don't understand it. It made literally no sense to me. I was confused. And it, like, literally. That was the worst part. Like, if we could just, like, edit that out, it would have been a flawless performance. In general, I loved Ricky Martin. King, Puerto Rican King. Like, it was so. Oh, God, he's so hot, too. But I thought that was, like, a really. A really amazing halftime performance. And I think that we'll be thinking about it for a long time after because, you know, there's so many layers to it. And I hope it made every white person so mad. Literally, I hope they were so mad at it. And I love at the end, when he was naming all the countries that are included in America, North America, South America, really just saying that we are all in this together. The only thing more powerful than hate is love. And that's so real. Come on, be serious. Be serious. So I love you, Bad Bunny, for life. I hope you have so many more new fans now because of it. But he's still my husband, so watch yourselves. That ladies, he's mine, not Joe's. And just a little, like, snippet on, like, how I felt about, like, the game in general. That game was boring. It's all. It's always been the Patriots for life. It's the Patriots for life. But the. The game was so boring. Like, you're telling me that leading into the halftime performance that the only scores on the board were four. Yes, four field goals. Like, be for real. Be so for real right now. Like, oh, my God. And the fact that that kicker for the Seahawks to not win mvp, that would have pissed me the off the you talking about. I'm the reason that this team even made it here. Come on. But they started to get their together by the third, fourth quarter. I was a little lit by then, so I can't really attest to really what was happening during the game. I did find it very interesting that there were like, what, like, two flags in the entire game. And I'm a Ravens fan. I love my Ravens. But we all know that if. If the Ravens were in the super bowl, there would have been two flags in the first three minutes of the game because we're a little. We're a little unruly. We're a flag team. And that was not the case for this game. It was so crazy. The first time they put out a flag, I literally turned to somebody who was there. I was like, is this the first flag of the game? Like, that's so crazy to me. And as for all, like, the super bowl commercials, I think that, like, super bowl commercials, like, they don't hit the same anymore that they used to. I mean, again, I wasn't really paying, like, full attention to it because I. Half the super bowl commercials come out, like, the week before, two weeks before. So I'm like, whatever. Like, why am I even watching this? But the gross display of sports betting, which there's about to be an epidemic over the next 10 years about sports betting, that is crazy. Save your money. I'm too Jew for that. Like, I really. I really can't even think and fathom the fact that I would spend money on a maybe like, I. Gambling is gross to me. Sports betting AI sloppy ass commercials disgusting, and weight loss drugs everywhere you look. There was, like, a way govi ad and like, all of these celebrities, like, promoting wegovy to him, like, Hollywood is suffering. You can really tell everybody's looking for a gig and, like, get your check, get your coin. But, like, yo, people are poor and you can tell. So that's a nice little short episode this week. I had to, like, make my opinion known. Of course, everybody was standing by for my opinion on the halftime show, but of course I loved it and I love him and I wish him nothing but success, love, and accolades. And yeah, I hope you liked it too. And if you didn't stop listening. All right, I'll catch you next week.
