Brooke and JeffreyPODCAST EXCLUSIVE: We're pitting the generations against each other with the ultimate trivia game, it's Brooke vs. Alexis!
Today.
All right, I'm running on Starbucks and Cappy Sunshine right now. It's a lot, right, but hey, welcome to the game at PITZA Generations against each other.
We're so glad you're here. And you know, I love that we've got like a certain fan base that just likes this game. Yes, I mean there's three of you.
I reappreciate you. And Alexis really you loved the comments from last week's game.
Yes, well, I mean most of these they were complimenting me, But I like that.
Danny Hernandez said, Alexis, I hope you bring back gen Z describes the plot.
Oh, that was so good.
And then Brindley, yeah she's a regular, said it's also her new favorite savers back in the day game.
And I love when people let us know what they like.
I don't think you realized, but Ashton and I had a conversation after.
The game last week all about what a good job you did.
Wow, you can just go comment that on the podcast.
Now, we weren't going to tell you in person, because you know, I don't the bus.
No, but I love to know, like exactly what you guys like that. Yeah, it helps us for sure.
For sure, and today I'll be asking the questions. We're going back to the nineties today, and Alexis I'm just gonna say right now that my house is all about counting down the days till school is out.
Yes, summer is like on the brink.
And it's so funny when I think about my kids summers, because their summers are like play dates and plan day camps and everything is scheduled out for them.
But I was a latch key kid.
I was in the nineties. I was running feral with my sister. My parents were at work. We were just bingeing whatever.
TV shows were on.
And the thing about television back in the nineties is you didn't get to choose. You were forced fed whatever happened to be on one of the major networks.
And during the day, that was all about soap operas. Okay, So that's where we're going today.
One of the most wild NBC soap operas out there was, of course, Passions.
Love the Okay.
So today I'm gonna test your soap opera savvy knowledge with a little game called plot line or knot line. I'm gonna read you a plot line from the show Passions, and you just have to tell me if it was really used in the show as a plot line or something I made.
Up as a knot line. Okay, okay, plot not? All right? Plot or not? Here we go.
First one, a character was cared for by an oranguting nurse named Precious.
I do remember talking about a show with an orangutang at some point.
I don't know that I took care of the persons. I'm thinking you made it up and it's not.
That was actually a plot line. Precious was very important to the show Passions. Wow, all right.
Next one, Tabitha, a witch, survived a tsunami by surfing on a door.
She's a witch. That's the best she can do. She can't do some magic. She's got none of these things.
Go again.
Yeah, I know who soapuppers were.
I just never watched them.
You may want to. I think that you can go binge this somewhere. I think Passions were watch somewhere.
I mean, I'd be rooting for Tabitha from home. So let's say plot.
Whom and okay. Number three, the town's biggest gossip column is written by a talking parent.
Oh my god, Okay, I don't know that. I believe it but it's funny. So let's say plot.
No, that was good one you made up, not plot that was my parents good.
It's thinking that Bridgerton.
But all right, you've got one right, so far, here we go again. One woman turned another into a zombie on Passions?
Are you turning someone into a zombie.
The same way as zombie? All zombies turn into zombies?
You're right, You're right, okay, dub plot, Yeah, thank you?
All right.
Last one, alexis a character's evil twin is actually a robot built by their estranged grandmother.
I'm gonna I know, I.
Know, I think maybe I should have been a writer for Passions.
The twins in soap opera there was evil ones.
Yeah, for sure.
My college best friend actually auditioned to be on the show Passions.
She loved it that much. She didn't make it. Wow, you know what a different life she would have had, I could imagine.
Okay, And so through my research into the nineteen nineties summer nostalgia, I came across an old ad for a product that I used to beg my mom to get me okay, And I'm pretty sure I was being manipulated into wanting after I read what the advertisement said. So I'm going to read you what the actual ad that was in every teen magazine said, and then I'm going to.
Have you try to guess what the product is.
Okay, So the ad said, four out of five girls you hate, ask for it by name. Stop hating them, start being them?
What girls? Okay?
All you have to do is tell me what type of product they were selling, and I'll give you a bonus if you can figure out the brand.
But I don't even care about that.
Okay, but I know what it is, like, I've heard of it.
Yeah, for sure, probably a.
Girl product, right if it's like only girls you hate me.
Girls or yea, maybe I don't know girls you hate? Do you believe that's how they were promoting it?
Well, mean girls deserve bad hate brook Yeah, exactly like they're saying.
It was basically like you hate the popular girls, and if you want to be them, then you have to do this.
I don't know why I would tell you. It wasn't what I was doing, but I wanted to do it very bad kind.
I was thinking of like the bump it hair thing, you know, that major hair like this snooky.
Like from the front.
I don't know why I thought of that.
Hair product, a certain hair tie or you know, I remember, I don't remember.
You could go generic, you could say hair product if I was.
Kind of thinking a hair product or like something for your car.
You know, I'm thinking, like all the cool girls have it on the car, and that's how you know who.
Detachable radios were really big.
Yeah, you take the face off so they didn't get stolen. Oh wow, God, and I left mine in there once it stole it.
Mark Olive Garden might be asking because you asked your mom for this and you never got it, so.
That it could be something like that.
Those are a little more expensive.
Can I say, like some type of electronic Is that too big?
That's fine. It was a hair product.
Yeah, the.
Un to get your hair light, let a little sun and do your hair rightness naturally in your hand.
My mom wouldn't buy it for me because it was too expensive.
I'm so it's like a spray Jose, you could still buy it.
My friends use day in high school.
So yeah, you spray it on your hair and then you go in the sun and it's like it's supposed to give you natural highlights, but really it just kind of turns your hair kind of a weird copper orange. Yeah. Yeah, but it's expensive, and so I just use lemon juice and so I would lay out and I have really crusty, crusty hair, and it never did anything.
The lemon juice too.
Yes, I've always been desperate for nacrobon hair.
So I've looked at all this put.
All right, We're on to our last question, and it's gonna be about one of the most iconic actresses of the nineteen nineties, and that.
Is Julia Roberts.
Okay, okay, you know her right, But before she was America's sweetheart, she was kind of a battie.
I'm just gonna let you know. And in nineteen ninety one.
She blew up the tabloids with like a huge scandal Julia, Yes, yeah, And it was actually pretty ironic because she later went on to star in a movie that was about the same type of scandal.
Okay, so that's your had, that's your hit, Alexis.
I need you to tell me the huge Julia Roberts news that broke in nineteen ninety one, and I'm gonna give you multiple choice.
Okay, thank you?
Was it a she was kicked out of a high end store and tried to fight the clerk.
Oh, I know that happened in that one movie. Okay, continue Sorry?
Was it B she left her famous fiance at the altar and ran away with.
His co star?
Oh my god?
Or was it C she.
Dated a mobster who got busted for an elaborate plan to rob a You know, I thought.
The first one was for sure one of the movies, but they all sound like the movie, the.
Movie that she's been in.
What I mean because the first one is a pretty Woman where she's in the store trying to buy stuff and they kick her out since she goes back. The next two I don't know. Did she date someone in one of the Oceans movies? I think she's in the Oceans.
And then the Wedding.
She's got to be in some wedding movie. This doesn't help me, No, pretty Woman, I'm gonna go the first one.
Play the trailer to the movie.
She likes the dumb booms right at the altar, flows down the aisle, knocking old ladies out of her way, like the running of the polls in pat Well. I'm profoundly and irreversibly screwed out.
Yes, she was a real life runaway bride. This is a wild story to me.
John's crazy.
Julia Roberts was supposed to marry Keith for Sutherland.
Yes, yes, and the venue was like prepped at his Montana home and last minute, like the week of the wedding she called it off. Oh the weeka yes, And then on the day it was supposed to go down, she was spotted on a flight to Ireland with his co star Jason Patrick. Whoa, and then they ended up dating for a couple months.
Oh my god, that is drama, I know. Is that drama?
It was the movie before after that happened after So the movie wasn't until nineteen ninety nine and I looked it up.
I was like, god, she must have inspired the movie. But yeah, that wasn't the case.
She just knew the content really was good.
Yeah, there it is.
There's today versus back in the day.
