[@skoduh17]

Respectfully: they truly do have Redboxes on the East Coast, Brooke I'm so sorry to tell you the New England girls were all up in that

[@EvWuzhere]

Also respectfully, i just dont think flat brim hats are complementary to connor. Obvi he's still slaying and looks great and doesnt wear hats for my approval but just throwing that out there

[@weatherpiece]

@@EvWuzhere yea you probably shouldn’t have

[@AG-cz7bs]

Ha yes, had them in Florida 🙌

[@chandrasekharlimit4547]

Respectfully sis, the boys too were all up in that box too, shit was a staple for bros night

[@shorterstax]

They still have them in Chicago!!

[@phoebedrupa2816]

i rewatch old episodes all week so it feels so special and different when theres a new one

[@austinking8309]

connor made me realize how good that feeling is waiting to scare someone

[@megalodon970]

they were having so much fun in this episode! vibes were high and we love to see it

[@breenuts7893]

connor saying podcasts are for listening to when you're folding your laundry as i'm folding my laundry while listening to their podcast was an out of body experience for me personally

[@hallemiller317]

JUST HAPPENED TO ME TOO I WAS ABT TO COMMENT THIS

[@OnoMadikvilov]

Brooke as someone with anxiety how would you feel if betterhelp was caught selling your conversation data from a therapist with social media companies and advertisers?

[@urgentlyj]

literally like get your bag but you have to take your platform very seriously when it comes to promoting buisnesses/services (just like what happened with the established titles) but better help is much worse being very predatory & unprofessional.

[@lmpfunk]

YES. KEEP TALKING ABOUT THIS! The betterhelp rabbit hole is dark and it’s insane how quickly it spread as basically the number 1 ad for all podcasts. Don’t use betterhelp folks!!

[@EvWuzhere]

I both agree but also dont think people shoud be mad at b and c for getting their bag.... podcasters are often held to the standard of supposedly co-signing on all their ads or something and some do live to that standard plus also the company may even ask for something like a personal remark as part of the ad read but literally them doing an ad isnt actually a personal co sign/ imo not their fault for promoting something. Prople have the discernment to make up their own minds about a product

[@axel8grease]

@@EvWuzhere I think it's fine to spread awareness to these podcasters though. There are many other companies out there to advertise besides betterhelp, and even if there wasn't they are part of a company who additionally has a paid subscription model. I get that they don't necessarily cosign ads, but as the consumer I think I'm allowed to be critical about where to draw the line when it comes to bag chasing ethics

[@em-ho1tr]

betterhelp is scary and has never helped me

[@imsojulia]

every episode you guys drop I swear it’s your best episode

[@benjidog1514]

I love how Connor reacted to those pranks. I’m a problem solver too and would’ve reacted the same way

[@meganlagola171]

i love brooke calling pauly d’s purple zip up the justin bieber hoodie. i get it

[@TwinkleStarLemonFruit]

Brooke and Connor will always be my last two brain cells trying to form a thought at 3am

[@Bob-os6sg]

54:17 “a copy of…or eh, an audiobook of… Lord of the Flies!” CONNOR 😭😭

[@Sarchu]

I wonder if Connor got his passport yet I also wonder where he’s going

[@stuck_around]

italy with family

[@phoebedrupa2816]

easily the best part of my week when you guys post!!!! brooke how does it feel knowing people are obsessed with you the way you are obsessed with celebrities??

[@madelinedavis19]

i just discovered this podcast so i’m binge watching all the old episodes, but it’s cool because i JUST watched lavender’s AGT performance && then listened to this podcast! amazing!

[@richardvillagomez2513]

our fave tinder couple ❤️

[@jordanlindsay2706]

I waited all week to know who this guest is gonna be

[@ConnorWood911]

10 days

[@jewelbragg9789]

One of the speeches at my cousins wedding made me think of rain on a wedding day as a great thing, “a wet knot is the hardest to untie” :,)

[@beatrizdr6]

Brooke please gives us an update when you see the rest of the episodes of love is blind🙏this season is also my fav

[@nitanu32]

i'm convinced my dad is singlehandedly keeping redbox running, he rents a dvd every 2-4 days

[@lilylovesitt]

i’m devastated we didn’t circle back to harry potter…i really wanted to know their thoughts

[@mcgrubby_]

From New England, there's Redboxes in a lot of places, mostly outside of CVS and Walgreens. If you're not paying attention you'd think it was a vending machine and not look twice, admittedly. They are starting to fizzle out though

[@brittbolt]

Brooke how have you NEVER seen a Redbox in PA!! I’ve never heard of them outside of McDonald’s?? but over here I’ve seen them mostly outside of CVS or in grocery stores!

[@katenutter]

Yes CVS

[@bubbleicious54]

I think what you guys are describing is guided play which differs from free play! Free play would be just letting kids do whatever they like (lord of the flies style), but guided play involves more teacher instruction with a learning goal in mind while also letting the child have autonomy :) my professor researches guided play, and it’s actually really compelling

[@topotondo828]

Children need to be told “no” every now and then. How else can we teach them to respect consent and boundaries if we avoid using the word “no” and negative phrasing?

[@NovasLitLibrary]

The excitement of visiting a beaten up vandalized Redbox outside of McDonalds with the sun screen over it & squinting to pick your movie in the blaring heat is a universal Southern experience i think

[@jazzy_ortega]

connor getting pranked by his dad with a free ride when he’s already paid 😢

[@jadem5554]

connor was in a great mood

[@aguiebakes6821]

Brooke, I subconsciously avoid negatives around my children when I can! I read it somewhere when I had my first kid and it stuck to me I guess 😊

[@HannaMathis]

watching this as a Hanna & i will say, you are giving Hannah vibes

[@elol02]

Wow I’m folding my laundry and listening to this podcast. Great thought, Connor

[@brigidkilloran2217]

I can confirm redbox was in the east coast and there are still some in Boston at grocery stores

[@sophiafarrisi5209]

Brooke, red boxes are everywhere in PA! I’m born and raised in bumblefuck middle of nowhere PA and my dad LOVED getting the worst D-rated movies from Redbox. Even when he passed, he still had two movies out from Redbox charging his card 😂 we eventually returned them, but it’s a funny joke in the family now

[@Jasmine-tr1zs]

As someone with toddlers in my family, go-go squeezes are totally also an adult food and my siblings and I have 10/10 talked about the same very thing 😂

[@mylieohl7786]

Connor talking about pranks is giving me Winston from New Girl

[@sarah9820]

red box is very much in the northeast! there’s one at my local grocery store in PA

[@breannaoneill7463]

BROOKE I went to the 12:30PM AGT taping on 4/2 and saw Simon’s Golden Buzzer… but it was the EXACT same girl? She performed her own song and Simon went up and had her sing again, and then he hit the buzzer (voice in tact) So I think they re-taped it for some reason? She didn’t talk about her music teacher or future goals, but she was definitely blind and had the voice of an angel?? I’m interested to see what they air

[@kayleywinter9789]

Plsss make more podcasts I’m dying for more content

[@MadelynBo]

i've been waiting all day YES THANK YOU

[@haileyo450]

IVE BEEN WAITING ALL DAY

[@morganobriens]

WHO IS THE GUEST

[@haileyo450]

no for real- where is the guest

[@em-ho1tr]

1:03:10 is so silly they’re reminding me siblings who’ve spent too much time together and start making noises and sound effects during convo

[@dtoom5656]

36:00 witnessing Brooke and Connor react to howie mandell with hair is amazing

[@Peepee4brain]

Omg Bekah from Chatty Broads! YES hers always get me too!

[@bethdavisjimenez]

We still have Red Box here in Florida inside the Walmarts mostly. also, if you want to know where something is streaming, you can Google it.

[@lduvall2013]

PA girl here and we did in fact have redbox and in fact still do at the walmart and cvs

[@jamalandcory9733]

why is there a random thrive market ad in the middle of the pod that is talking over the clips??

[@d0rinachick]

I love this podcast so much!!!!

[@miranda9703]

omg brooke i fell for bekah’s april fools joke too LMAO it was so bad

[@miranda9703]

also would like to shout out chatty broads

[@kayleefesmire9263]

“We can use our hands in the water table” “we can drink out of water bottle”

[@glum-bug]

1:04:49 not me currently folding my laundry as I watch this ep

[@emilywilliams1771]

Connor- I swear you love rocks because you’re a Virgo. It’s something about being an earth sign/being connected to the ground. I’m also a Virgo and also have a bowl of rocks and compulsively have to pick all of them up

[@courtneyjbeard04]

I’d just like to say that I am a dental student rn and I FULLY intend on eating gogosqueeze as a dental professional

[@Aveheb]

So upset I missed Conner in NOLA wow

[@Blueberryl0v3r]

Highlight of my week 💖💖

[@NicholeGreenNicholeGreen]

I fell for Bekah’s April fools joke too haha

[@MadelynBo]

Howie Mandel was a comedian and actor he was in Little Monsters with Fred Savage in the 80s... classic film

[@ashleygrubaugh611]

Can say I’m currently watching bnc map while folding laundry

[@jcat3293]

Buffalo, ny...we for sure still have redboxes but they're outside of cvs and grocery stores lol

[@andrewake7077]

[@mayormeriah]

[@azaria4447]

[@phoebedrupa2816]

[@aguiebakes6821]

[@averillcuarenta5987]

[@rapunzeltherat]

Some Redboxes are still in Orlando. Big part of my childhood 💔💔

[@natasiaaaa]

perhaps.... lets only drink water from the water fountain!!

[@potentialcaroozin2385]

Red box was definitely a thing, they were in every shop rite entrance in NY

[@hannachristensen4385]

Love connors careful choice of words about conservatives with “for people that…. don’t operate on their own…”

[@lilylovesitt]

are we sure brooke was allowed to disclose the lavender thing in full detail??? is she gonna get sued???

[@veronicacervone1439]

I hate to inform you that redbox did not only have a moment and are on the east coast, they are still thriving here on Long Island however they are typically outside of CVS or 7/11

[@Sarahannwrapper]

[@hannababanana3797]

500 days of summer reference amazing

[@irapnev]

I used to rent from Redbox in Brooklyn all the time

[@shuitsowski1]

Brooke's gotta watch Kodi Lee's agt season now too

[@grahamhill2277]

You guys need to stop taking better betterhelp sponsorships. Awful, shady company.

[@luciamack]

me on april 5 2024 watching old episodes and connor says its april 5 (2023) . scary

[@kayliemosser3431]

my redboxes were always in harris teeters

[@sammikxo]

i BEG for you guys to include a fact check at the end of these episodes. they would help you so much i swear. sometimes there’s just tooooo much misinformation lol

[@ryanenoch1763]

Brooke Redbox is all over the philly area they’ve been here for years and years

[@cheeriotomato]

We have RedBox in New Hampshire!

[@mereluna99]

is the backgroud green screen or real i really can not tell

[@sinanjosephson6148]

I can confirm red box was in new hampshire lmao. I swear tho the selection was terrible. Renting dvds from Netflix was the go to back then

[@smoaktree]

The way connor nonchalantly talks about traveling like its nothing. Do your parents pay for it all? Because if my italy trip got canceled, id be calling hotels and airlines trying to get refunds or some form of flight credit. And instead you plan to book a trip to Bali? 😭 HOW!?

[@fin.is.finished]

44:14 *me literally wiping my bum* 🕴️

[@sofg267]

cause you'd be out of fluids lmao

[@stephaniem8700]

im in maine and they have redbox lolllll

[@kayleywinter9789]

So so sorry to go against Brooke rn. Butttttt I’m from New Jersey and Redboxes were ALL OVER

[@okayokayokay111]

Memories of the redbox in supermarkets… long island ny

[@lilleeble]

bring back the old intro!!!!!

[@haleyslater5176]

you have just got to watch kid nation. its all on yt and its like 40 kids aged 8-15 and they're dropped in the middle of the desert and have to literally build their own functioning nation with socioeconomic classes. you just won't understand how crazy it is until you start watching it. they had to kill chickens to feed themselves. I swear this show had to make big TV rethink its entire stance on child ethics you will not regret this for one second you just have to believe me

[@1Dchicogirl]

almost nothing I love more than pranks. P power

[@fail2feel]

hearing brooke relate to the name rachel threw me off so hard
