One of our favourite global fashion icons is making headlines for her "robotic" morning habits, and we need to discuss whether her 6am espresso-and-emails vibe is aspirational or just plain exhausting.
We’re also spiralling over a major security breach on a North Carolina film set that has led to "privacy please" being literally written in the sand.
Finally, if you're looking for a guilty new pleasure we luxuriate in the rise of a new "sexy stories" platform that is completely flipping the business model for romance and adult entertainment.

From Mom and Mia.
00:02Speaker 2
Welcome to the Spill your daily pop culture fix.
00:05Speaker 1
I'm m Vernon and.
00:06Speaker 3
I'm Brief Player, executive producer of MoMA MIA's interview podcast No Filter, and former magazine editor.
00:12Speaker 1
We had a full intro. That's that's my intro. That's what I'm told to say. I love that. Well. I know yours is just your name, but you.
00:20Speaker 2
Know what that's because I don't know what's going on for me.
00:23Speaker 3
That is, it's because you are a name. It's because your talented girl too. Oh okay, well player.
00:28Speaker 1
Does stand out.
00:29Speaker 4
Well.
00:29Speaker 2
A name that is missing is LB Laura Brodney. It is she is having some fun with her family and we are holding down the fort LB.
00:38Speaker 1
If you're listening, no you're not. It's fun. We've got this.
00:42Speaker 2
Today on the show, we are going to be talking about a very firm statement a production company has put out towards its fan base of a very cult favorite show and what this means, I guess, for the future of film sets. We're also talking about how a lot of hot men doing a bit of.
01:00Speaker 1
A career turn. We're not complaining, we are, no, we are quite the opposite.
01:06Speaker 2
Really, But first I need to talk about our friend Victoria Beckham, so friend of the show, friend of the show, show of the podcast. So she recently went on Emma Gred's podcast. It's like over an hour long interview. Emma Greed, if you don't know, has developed so many of the Kardashian brands. She's like CEO of Chloe's Jean's brand, she was co founder of Skims. She's very very well known in the girl boss industry.
01:32Speaker 3
The girl is actually such an apt description.
01:36Speaker 1
I love it.
01:37Speaker 2
So Vibi did this interview with her, and there's so many juicy things in it. If you haven't watched her documentary on Netflix, you now don't need to. You just need to listen to this interview because she pretty much covers everything she says in the documentary.
01:51Speaker 1
She talks about her kids.
01:54Speaker 2
You know, when you're watching a YouTube interview and it like has the most replay, it shows you the most replayed moments literally about her talking about her kids and the differences between parenting children versus parenting adults. We've talked about bestie Brooklyn Beckham and everything that's going on between him and his mom. Best friend of the show, best friend of the show. She also talked about the alleged affair. She talked about her company making money, losing money, making money again.
02:20Speaker 3
It's super unusual for Victoria to give a like a big deep dive interview as well, so I think.
02:26Speaker 2
Like girl Boss to girl Boss, felt like it was environment Yeah, but like to be fair, a lot of the stuff she talks about with her company and her both her fashion brand and beauty brand is like really really interesting where she talks about She covered it in the documentary as well, but I guess emm agreed asks those really like kind of personal business se questions where she mixes business questions with lifestyle questions. There is one part of the podcast so that I really want to discuss, yes, and it's the part that no one's really talking about. It's her day in the live.
03:01Speaker 1
It's the highlight of the podcast for me. I just love to know.
03:05Speaker 2
What celebrity millionaires and billionaires are doing every day so I can try to replicate it in my sad little life.
03:12Speaker 3
On weekends, because we have jobs.
03:16Speaker 1
Because we have real jobs, real jobs. Should I take you through it? Yes? Oh please please? Okay, she's almost the weekend. I need to know, we need to.
03:23Speaker 2
Know okay, So she says, we get up every morning, thank God, off to a strong style.
03:31Speaker 1
We get up every single morning. That's crazy.
03:34Speaker 2
We get up every morning and we make Harper breakfast. What I've noticed in this day in the live, she doesn't mention about her own eating habits, because we all know she eats steamed fish and veggies every single day. And I don't think she wants to keep marketing that because I don't think she really wants a fish dealer.
03:49Speaker 1
She doesn't need it, doesn't need, she doesn't need, doesn't need a fish finger.
03:53Speaker 2
So they both make Harper breakfast. She says, if he's not traveling, David does the school run, she goes down to the gym. When she says down to the gym, I'm assuming downstairs.
04:03Speaker 3
And the like, Yeah, I don't think she's like popping going down the road, you know, the local like fitness first, no, non equivalent.
04:09Speaker 2
She's going down to the gym, and she does. Wait for forty five minutes. Then David comes back home, joins her, and then they work out together for another hour.
04:21Speaker 1
Oh, I know they're that couple.
04:23Speaker 2
An hour and forty five minutes every single morning in the gym that's a lot, girl, it's a lot. But she loves doing things with him.
04:29Speaker 1
Yeah, but like there are other things to do. Okay.
04:32Speaker 2
Then she says she goes to the office, which is ten minutes away from where she lives.
04:36Speaker 1
So I'm assuming the same time stamped this, Like, do we know, like when is she rolling into the now?
04:41Speaker 3
She kind of like, so it could be midday because if she's got up, we don't know when she gets up, made Harper breakfast or you know, being present for the breakfast making.
04:51Speaker 1
I can't see. I feel like it's David hands on not.
04:53Speaker 2
I feel like she'll make Harper like a juice and David makes the breakfast.
04:57Speaker 1
We know he cooks. He loves to cook.
04:58Speaker 3
And then like she's an arrow and forty five in the gym, has to shower, get I'm sure like that, you.
05:04Speaker 1
Know, becoming becoming BB.
05:06Speaker 3
Yeah, the day is not a quick time office mid day probably yeah, probably.
05:12Speaker 2
So she says it's only ten minutes away, so I'm assuming, like the same estate.
05:17Speaker 1
I'm assuming it's.
05:18Speaker 2
Like it's just next door, next door, a second home. Yeah, she says she goes in five days a week. Oh, what do we feel about that? Well, she says, I have to be there. It's where like all the ideas get made. There's something about going in every day, and I'm like, this sounds like a CEO who had hybrid working conditions and I told everyone.
05:40Speaker 1
To come here, to come back.
05:41Speaker 3
It's like, yeah, VB at the front line of pushing people back in the office's like, I.
05:45Speaker 1
Love being here all the time. Don't shut up, Phoebe. It's because you get to roll in a mid day.
05:50Speaker 2
Yes, And she says she doesn't travel that much. She only ever goes to New York because beauty. Her beauty brands in New York and her fashion brands in between London and Paris must be nice.
06:00Speaker 3
She has a lot of social engagements too, Like, I don't what she's doing this interview.
06:06Speaker 1
Yeah, on the weekend, probably.
06:09Speaker 2
Probably she's in the office five days with family time, Okay, I guess.
06:13Speaker 1
So.
06:13Speaker 2
She also says at six pm, they are all at home and they all have dinner together, no phones, they just talk about their days.
06:22Speaker 1
I love that.
06:22Speaker 2
Yeah, And she says that we are quite a traditional family. Most people won't believe that, but they are.
06:28Speaker 1
I believe that, but I think that it's ordained, like.
06:34Speaker 3
I don't know if it's well, we actually know for a fact it's not every child's choice to be part of that environment. But I can imagine they have strict rules about dinner together and no phones and yeah, well.
06:46Speaker 2
After everything that happened with like Brooklyn Beckham, I'm sure they are like quite strict parents. She also talked about how her daughter Harper is launching a skincare brand because she says that like her daughter used all of these like different skin cares and ruined her skin, and she wanted to create a really nice collection of like clean skin care for young girls to use, like sure, And I was like sure. I mean, like I'm kids meant to get acne.
07:17Speaker 1
Yeah, it's inevitable. Yeah, but it's good for them.
07:19Speaker 2
It's good for them. But as you know, I didn't really listen to any of that stuff. I was just like, let me know the day in the life. Yea other day in the life, and now we got it. So if you want to know what to do for to be Victoria Beckham, an hour and forty five minutes in the gym every morning.
07:31Speaker 1
That is in your house. Yeah, that's in your house. You have to have the gym in your house, and if.
07:35Speaker 3
You do go to work, it's down the road ten minutes. Yeah, and you're not really doing a commute. You're certainly not on the train.
07:40Speaker 1
You're fine, you'll do it. It's probably in you. I would say it's pretty easy to be VB.
07:44Speaker 3
But I don't know about an hour and forty five minutes in the gym every morning.
07:47Speaker 1
I'll give it a go tomorrow, I'm definitely not. No, I stop at waking up every day. We've got that down. I've got it down. Only five more steps to go.
07:58Speaker 2
So the summer turned pretty You might have heard of it. Yeah, she'll have a little old show. They're currently in the production of making the movie, which is meant to act as like the actual actual series finale.
08:11Speaker 1
Yes, this is it.
08:12Speaker 2
Yes, and they're currently filming. Recently, the production company that's doing so, on my Return, Pretty Amazon.
08:19Speaker 1
Tweeted this.
08:20Speaker 2
They said, we love the excitement, but sharing locations and visiting sets disrupts filming and creates real safety concerns for our cast and crew. We're working hard to create a protective bubble to make the best movie possible. Please help us protect the magic of Cousins. That's the place where it's set, not cousins in general, until it's ready to be shared after that. Jenny Hahn, who wrote the book and is also a big writer of the movie and the show, she also posted when people come to set, film and share videos, it disrupts the work and makes it harder for actors to get into character and causes unnecessary anxiety for them.
08:57Speaker 1
We often have to stop.
08:58Speaker 2
Production to clear crowds from the show, which breaks the crew's focus. This story means a lot to me, and I know it means a lot to you too. I want to give you the best version of this movie. Please help protect our process, right.
09:11Speaker 3
Oh, Look, like fervent fandoms are a double edged sword because like they need that. That's why they have had a successful series. It's why they've got this movie coming out. They wouldn't have that without the fans. And the fans are so so so passionate, and like in my heart, I'm a fangirl, I always will be, and I have so much love for fangirls and boys.
09:32Speaker 1
Yeah, and I just think like.
09:34Speaker 3
The reason why, like they're showing up because they love it so much. They want to be part of that world. And it's like it's super endearing, but I do understand why. You know, it's not necessarily conducive to a good set.
09:47Speaker 2
I think they've also like this set and crew in particular, I've had such like bad luck when it comes to like fans being so intense about the show. Because when I first read this, I was kind of like, I was a bit like boohoo.
09:59Speaker 1
Like, yeah, everyone loves the show. Nice, just be nice.
10:03Speaker 2
But then I remembered when they were filming the series finale of the last season of the summer I turned pretty where Belly goes to Paris, and a lot of it was filmed in Paris. They had to fly Gavin over also who played Jeremiah, even though Jeremiah had no scenes in Paris, because everyone was just so intense and guessing who she would choose, Conrad or Jeremiah. And then around the same time, they were putting out Statesmen saying please stop bullying our cast.
10:29Speaker 1
They're not their characters.
10:31Speaker 2
So they've really been through a lot with their fan base. But it's the same exactly what you said. I feel like if I was like walking around the US or in Europe and I saw that they were filming close to me, I wouldn't want to go.
10:45Speaker 1
Of course, I would want to have a look see. Of course I would take a couple of picks.
10:48Speaker 3
I don't know if I would necessarily share them on social media because that's just not my bag.
10:52Speaker 1
But I would show my friends. Yeah, I'd sit here and talk about it. I would literally talk about it like.
11:00Speaker 3
Yeah, like it's it's even if it's not your absolute favorite show. Like obviously there are people that are going, oh my god, I want to see them up close. Let's plan a trip, and like, you know that is happening. I know that happened a bit on the set of people we meet on vacation.
11:14Speaker 1
Yeah, but the.
11:15Speaker 3
Interactions were actually all really lovely and all the reports were fine, and there wasn't kind of a messaging sent out that I'm aware of that was like, don't do this.
11:23Speaker 1
But you know, fandoms are why a.
11:26Speaker 3
Lot of these projects get off the ground in the first place, especially if they're you know, they're based on a book or whatever, so they come with an inbuilt fan base, and so with that comes like this experience.
11:38Speaker 2
And I do think it's changed a lot as technology has changed. Very true to it, Jenny Hahn said, in her statement that it really disrupts the cast and the crew. Like imagine thinking you're filming a show and now you have like a live studio audience who're just like reacting to everything. Plus with the fans filming stuff and posting it online, it just creates like this bigger, bigger thing where was before It used to be like, oh my god, I was in the background of parks and recreation, did you see me?
12:06Speaker 3
I think, like, I find it frustrating when there's too many clips shared on my like for you page. For you that's it where you're like, I don't want to see it, and it's like, oh, like the way I was tapping interested on stuff when The Devil Wears Prata, like stuff was all coming.
12:22Speaker 2
That literally happened to me when I watched the second movie because I watched it in cinemas after you guys went to the big premiere and I was seeing scenes that I'd already seen on my TikTok. It's annoying, right because everyone was just filming them, yeah.
12:34Speaker 1
Filming the way, walking on the streets and everything.
12:36Speaker 3
But then it's also funny as well because we saw so many stills and footage from that film of Anne Hathaway and Patrick Brammel on the Street. It was so gorgeous and so romantic, and then like that was totally missing from the film. So that's a funny experience as well, because we've all been primed and it's almost like part of the promo. And that's actually really interesting because some productions, yeah, are like if you can't beat them, join them, and they're using it as an opportunity for promo. So we've seen that a lot with like they've been filming and they've wrapped filming now on Sunrise on the Reaping, which is like the next installment of the Hunger Games franchise. It's like the cast were encouraged to show stuff on their own like social media, like let's do it first. Yeah, yeah, so they're like McKenna grace was like all over it, and you know, she's so great on social media anyway. But we got a lot of behind the scenes stuff from that production and the movie doesn't come out till November, but they like really leaned into it and like knew that they had this really really really passionate fan base and so they were like feeding people from the start.
13:41Speaker 1
That's really smart.
13:42Speaker 2
I have a feeling Marvel kind of did the same for the New Spider Man movie because Tom Holland does a lot of his own stunts where they got like fans filming him, like jumping over cars and stuff in New York, and they were sharing those own videos on their own socials. It also really interesting, like can work way that kind of helps the production company or give them ideas. Do you remember when the first stills of It Ends with Us came out? Oh, and we were seeing lively in like those costs, like the most horrendous wardrobe choices, the most mirandous wardrobe choices.
14:19Speaker 3
And then it was just like mass trolling of like this she wearing?
14:25Speaker 1
What is this?
14:25Speaker 2
And then we still saw some quiet questionable efforts in that movie, but like the ones that we saw on des Moir were like not in the movie at all, very similarly love story. What they had as like the dress for Carolyne Bassett, the first.
14:39Speaker 3
First glimpse at both of them, both of them, it was like, that's not how they looked like they were wearing like h and M pieces like it just it wasn't reflective.
14:48Speaker 1
And that's so important, particularly for that story.
14:50Speaker 3
Because they're like, firstly, yeah, he had a lot of money, he dressed really well. He was like stylish and gorgeous and you know, but she was known FIRS style. That was a trademark, so to miss that and even like it was right down to the hair, like that's not what Carolyn's hair looked like, and then they started to change. When the show dropped, it was like it had been absolutely coarse corrected and then they nailed it.
15:14Speaker 1
So it is interesting to see and it must be helpful for them.
15:17Speaker 2
They're getting that live feedback as a film versus when a trailer goes out and then they see all the.
15:22Speaker 3
Feed test audience at the end, so like you can't then go await the wardrobe sucks, Like you can't go and reshoot the entire thing. So that's really yeah, that's been really beneficial for them. I've noticed as well. The next series of AHS has been like teasing so much from behind the scenes they've been doing. So they've got the core cast of Coven back, which is really exciting because like in my be in many people's opinion, Coven was the best season three, right, it was season three, that's like the Witch season that was set in Your Orleans absolutely incredible and like the cast so so stellar. Now, if you remember Jessica Lang, who was in the first maybe I think.
16:04Speaker 1
Five seasons, yes, I think.
16:06Speaker 3
So Dan left and when I said no, I'm done, I'm never going back, right, she was like adamant, like no, no, no, no.
16:14Speaker 1
No, guess who's back?
16:15Speaker 5
Shut up?
16:16Speaker 3
Yes, And it was announced on set like they had her in costume and they were like playing into it and they've been dropping in on st same.
16:24Speaker 1
As Emma Roberts is back. And of course her famous line is, hey, bitch, I bet you thought you saw the last of me.
16:30Speaker 3
So that's how she promo that she was back, which was so cool.
16:34Speaker 1
Oh my god, I love so.
16:36Speaker 3
Fun and like, as a fan of that series, I was so excited to like, it's like playing along from home from the start.
16:42Speaker 1
It also extends their run. It gets people excited from the start. That's so true.
16:46Speaker 2
I was thinking of massive cult shows where everyone's been obsessed with and movies where they had to like go through extra lengths just to make sure nothing's link. And I found this really interesting. Fun facts, fun facts for the girls in Sex and the City. The last episode, Sarah Jessica Parker said, they filmed.
17:05Speaker 1
Three this is traditional tragicity not and just like that. Yeah, okay, great, I'm a purist. I'm glad that we're talking about it.
17:12Speaker 2
So three different ending. So the first ending that we all saw on our screens is she ends up with Big. The second fake ending that they filmed was her coming back to New York alone, and the third one can guess, oh, her ending up with Alexander Petrov's no. No, And she was like, yeah, it was so obvious because they were such bad end.
17:38Speaker 3
Look, the one of her coming back to New York alone would have been nice, would have been like it would proper. Yes, I actually think maybe if the show was set today that she re that's so true. Back then everyone wanted a happy ending and we weren't. You know, the show was already revolutionary enough.
17:54Speaker 1
The people weren't. Back then, everyone was like, what would you do with that? And then yes, we don't understand. I don't understand, but now we know, we now we know.
18:03Speaker 2
Kit Harrington on Game of Throw Yeah said that because all of their scenes were filmed in like rural areas, like in forests and like snowy mountains.
18:12Speaker 1
You're a fan and you tricked out that you know what you deserved exactly? Do you take that video? You tell us what's going on.
18:19Speaker 2
But they said they had paparazzi were coming camouflage with these big with these big lenses, filming them like walking up like because everything in Game of Thrones would have been a leak, because even just seeing two characters together and Game of Thrones would have been a huge league, even seeing a character still alive, a character still alive, like a character who's like never met another character together. So everything was like really high stakes. So he said that they all had to film a certain number of fake scenes, like proper fake scenes that they knew would never I.
18:51Speaker 1
Just think of the money that's being spent, so much.
18:53Speaker 2
Money on production on actors with Game of Thrones.
18:58Speaker 1
What a waste of money because any name, you know what.
19:07Speaker 3
Us, choose your own adventure, release them all and the people can decide how it should have ended.
19:12Speaker 1
Agree.
19:12Speaker 2
Okay, And this is my favorite one in Avengers end Game. So if you haven't watched Endgame, this is going to be a spoiler.
19:20Speaker 1
But come on, it's been years and years. I haven't watched it. I probably never will.
19:24Speaker 2
Okay, well this is not going to be a huge, huge spoiler, but there's a scene where there's a funeral. So, like one of the characters dies and they all go to a funeral. They told Tom Holland and Mark Ruffalo, who are the two cast members known for accidentally leaking stuff.
19:39Speaker 1
Yeah, Tom Holland.
19:41Speaker 2
Tom Holland has given everyone Avenger plots. Yeah, his whole life, that's all he does, Avengers plots. They told the two of them that it was a wedding scene, and then they came dressed thinking they were filming a wedding scene and didn't realize.
19:54Speaker 1
Until they were there that it was a funeral.
19:56Speaker 2
And they still didn't tell them until the movie was released. Oh it was so only Robert Downey Jr. Was the only actor in that whole franchise to get the full script?
20:08Speaker 3
Is that because he was dead, because he whispered into a microphone.
20:13Speaker 1
Because he was dead, because he was don't tell anyone.
20:15Speaker 2
Yeah, so he was the only one. No one else everyone knew like bits and pieces. But Tom Holland literally thought the funeral scene he was filming for did.
20:23Speaker 1
The rest of the cart not realized when he was not there Robert because he also came there. He had to come.
20:32Speaker 3
That's so funny because that's not so much keeping it a secret from the fans.
20:38Speaker 2
Secret from the car so they don't accidentally. So Tom Holland couldn't actually like leak anything because he didn't know.
20:44Speaker 3
I want to know what film or TV set you would cross international date lines to go on stalk if it.
20:51Speaker 2
Was still filming, or if they did like another season or like brought it back to our screens. The Mindy Project, Oh I would, Oh my god, I would honestly get because like her whole thing was like she was a gynocologist, and I would literally get a doctorate and pretend that I'm a guyano and just to get on that set and be like I'm here to advise. I'm here to like, yeah, I'm here to see Mindy Kayling, here for miss Kayling.
21:19Speaker 1
Here for miss Kayling.
21:20Speaker 2
I'm here to advise as the doctor on set. Oh my god, I'd love that.
21:24Speaker 1
What would be yours?
21:25Speaker 6
Oh?
21:25Speaker 1
Look, if I'm looking backwards, it would be fleaback. That's such a good one. I feel like it would be fairly easy as well.
21:32Speaker 3
Yeah, I think so too. That would be pretty easy. Also, I feel like you're like.
21:36Speaker 1
Phoebe bit chill.
21:37Speaker 2
You know, she'd be so be excited to see you, would be I think she'dn't brite you on As a writer, I think so too.
21:42Speaker 1
Yeah, oh my god. And like looking forwards, I reckon that they'll have a bit of travel with the Hated Rivalry set next time. Oh yeah, they are going to have trouble.
21:52Speaker 3
Because if the summer I turned pretty is pulling out the fans for those two boys, imagine.
21:57Speaker 1
Taking it up a notch the Heated rivalry.
21:59Speaker 2
Will you give them so many points? Just film fake scenes, but make sure you release those ones to that.
22:04Speaker 1
Secluded cabin is suddenly going to look like it's got.
22:07Speaker 2
A great It's like, can you just remove the Airbnb signed from the lawn?
22:11Speaker 1
That'd be great.
22:13Speaker 3
Okay, And we have to talk about something that is joked around the Spill team that I have a doctrine in which she's Quinn.
22:20Speaker 1
Are you across Quinn? The app Quinn?
22:23Speaker 4
Oh?
22:23Speaker 1
When you say.
22:24Speaker 2
App Quinn, I am across it. When you just say Quinn general, I'm like, I don't think I met her.
22:30Speaker 1
The app quick Quinn. Yes. It is like audio erotica It is an app.
22:35Speaker 3
I came across it back at my last job when I was at Murray Claire and I was interviewing Thomas Dougherty. So Thomas Doherty you might remember from the reboot of Gossip Girls, and he's more recently and tell me lies.
22:48Speaker 1
Yes, he has a very chiseled jaw. He has a very chiseled jaw.
22:52Speaker 3
And despite the accent that he often sports in his shows, he's not American.
22:57Speaker 1
He's Scottish. So he's got a beautiful, beauty Scottish face. I couldn't get any better. He's got it.
23:03Speaker 3
And so Quinn is an app like you subscribe to. There's audio erotica on there, done by contributors, creators like normal guys out there.
23:13Speaker 1
It's like a sexy, calm app. It is, Yes, it's calm, but instead of falling asleep, you're getting horny. You're getting horned. Yeah, yeah, I like it because I.
23:22Speaker 2
Heard that women are more likely to get off on like audible sound versus visual.
23:30Speaker 3
Well it would seem so, and like I think, you know, that's the problem. A lot of like visual porn is not made for women, it's made for men. So this app, which was actually created by Caroline Spiegel, And if that name sounds familiar, it's because she's the sister of Snapchat creator Evan.
23:45Speaker 1
Oh my gosh, she's like and they're both sibling.
23:49Speaker 3
Yeah, yeah, Nepo's sibling. But she's like cooler chica and has created something that's like way better for the.
23:54Speaker 1
Girlies and fun sibling duo. Yeah, which also means that she's sister in law.
24:01Speaker 2
They should do a collab time Snapchat.
24:06Speaker 7
They made share a video.
24:07Speaker 6
I don't know.
24:09Speaker 1
So she's created this space where it is like about women's pleasure, much needed, much needed space where it's the focus. It's like female run, female staffed business. Predominantly most of the background creators on it are female. The voices are predominantly male. There are some female voices on it too, because it's like male for female and female for female. Correct.
24:31Speaker 3
Something that they started doing, as I mentioned with Thomas Doherty, was doing these things they call quinn originals with famous men narrating audio erotica.
24:42Speaker 1
I love that.
24:43Speaker 3
So Thomas Doherty came first, so we have to like thank him because he.
24:52Speaker 1
Led the way.
24:53Speaker 3
And what has followed has been like the most astounding lineup of top tier a War winning, and I'm like, when I say award winning, I mean like, like, these are guys that are like Emmy Golden Globe like nominade winners. So I'm going to run you through the stuff, right, Okay. So there's been Jesse Williams, who, of course like, oh my god, those eyes plays Jackson Avery in Ray's Anatomy speaking of Flea Bag, which we just did Andrew.
25:21Speaker 1
The actors at which is like normal accent, yeah, with his Irish accent. Tom blythe tom blythe Beautiful tom Bly God, so many that we already talked about today. There is is like promo for Sunrise on the Things.
25:36Speaker 3
Yeah, well he's not in that unfortunately, no, because it's set so yeah, so Ray Fines actually plays Snow in that one. Okay, Yeah, so it's it's a bit less sexy because tom blythe isn't in it, but Beautiful tom blythe Chris Brinney from the Summer Return pretty again another thing, yes, so okay, but also not only are they getting these men to do it, they're really explicit like they're not tame, right, They're not. So they're getting them to say yes to it. They're getting them to do it. There's sound effects and everything, and they're.
26:09Speaker 1
Getting them to do it at the exact.
26:11Speaker 3
Time that like their major project is. So when the summertime Pretty season three came out, that's when.
26:18Speaker 1
Chris's episode dropped. Wow, same as like okay, that's smart dropped. Like They're so amazing the way they're able to get them.
26:26Speaker 3
And as someone who like books talent, right, that's my job here, that's what I do for No Filter, I book the talent and when I worked in magazines, I booked the cover star talent.
26:36Speaker 1
Right.
26:36Speaker 3
It is hard, like there is like they have not much time to spare. It is hard to get someone like everyone's chasing them, especially when they're on for like those projects. So it is amazing to me how they've managed to get these guys to do this, which is like quite a hard sell I would imagine at the start. But I think that because of the lineup they've had, it's getting easier and easier because when you look at that roster, if you're like a talent manager and you look and you go, oh Andrew Scott, like wow, he's done this, like you know all of these like amazing actors, then you get more likely to show it and say hey, like.
27:11Speaker 1
Yeah, that's chat you.
27:12Speaker 2
And I also wonder because like Romanticy is like killing it in the genre game right now.
27:19Speaker 3
Funny you mention that because Jesse Williams, yeah, his one is themed around Romanticy still like a.
27:25Speaker 1
Very porn vie. I like that.
27:28Speaker 3
The other guys that have done it who we also just talked about was Connor Story and Hudson Williams stuff.
27:33Speaker 1
They did a series together. Of course they did. Of course they did, because that's.
27:36Speaker 3
What they can't do anything and they can yeah, they can never not do anything together. And there's plays into that same vibe as well.
27:42Speaker 2
Yeah, because it's like every like I mean, I'm a huge Romanticy reader, and like I know that a lot of production companies are thinking about taking these like books that everyone loves to the big screen. Like we know Michael B. Jordan's bought rights of a series that was like the whole room of him, like talking to Yarnha on the red carpet, everyone thinking she's going to be starring in one of his upcoming productions.
28:04Speaker 1
And I think this.
28:05Speaker 2
Is such a good opportunity for these men to like jump on this platform because you're obviously, if you're gonna listen, you're gonna visualize them.
28:13Speaker 1
Absolutely. It's not like an anonymous no, exactly what they like. And they all have like massive fan.
28:19Speaker 3
Bases and girls and the way that the Queen Girls tease the next celebrity on their TikTok and Instagram. You'll see like an arm or you'll.
28:26Speaker 1
See like I know that arm, well you do, because you're like I recognize those tattoos, I recognize those backsteps.
28:33Speaker 3
Well indeed, because the latest one to drop, the latest series was narrated by Sean Hattersey of The Pit.
28:42Speaker 1
Oh, he is such a good looking guy. He is such but everyone on the Pit is very good looking. Yeah, but especially those two sad, sad, sexy old doctors.
28:53Speaker 2
Right, oh my god, Okay, I'm really really you know now.
28:57Speaker 3
Okay, So when I hadn't watched The Pit because like, I don't.
29:00Speaker 1
Want to get around a medical drama. You know, you're very much like LB, like it's too real.
29:05Speaker 3
Yes, But then when I started seeing Sean hat to see on the Quinn's feed, I was like, he's really hot. And I've since watched The Pit now I love it, which is so I love that so they're very good, like Quinn seem very good at picking men who aren't just like super attractive and are doing really well in that.
29:21Speaker 1
Space, but also very like Zygeist. Yeah, like everyone's already talking about that. They absolutely nail it.
29:26Speaker 3
I'm going to give a shout out to the two girls at Quinn that run the social media, Brooke and Michayla.
29:32Speaker 1
You're doing guard's work. Girls.
29:33Speaker 3
Absolutely, they're like world class girls, girls what we want. They are both gorgeous, they're always on there, they're primoing, they're so funny. Yeah, you've got to get around on this great and they have really good taste in men because I can see like who they're tapping, you can you can see who that they picked.
29:52Speaker 1
But do you want to hear some? I definitely want to hear some? Okay, how do we want to do that? Shall I play you some and you can kind of guess who you think it is? Okay?
30:00Speaker 7
Yeah?
30:00Speaker 1
I like that, you like that? Okay, I'm nervous. Spillers.
30:05Speaker 2
If you're watching this on Apple podcasts or YouTube, close your eyes, don't look at me.
30:08Speaker 1
Do this.
30:11Speaker 5
I would take your clothes off until you were nothing, but you're underwear. I will get that sound out of you again, the one you made when you press your body into mind.
30:25Speaker 6
Oh, the pushing noises, breathless, desperate for some relief, and the pressure building inside you.
30:38Speaker 1
Oh my god, who do you think that is? Was that Chris Briny? No? Older? Older, much older?
30:47Speaker 3
Ah, I'm gonna read you the tags that were under the audio for that older man.
30:55Speaker 1
Forbidden romance, forbidden romance, mutual pining, sexting, nude picture, jealousy, personal backstory, consent, very important, it is important. M dom oh male dominant watching instructing you. Oh, it's my pit man. Sean had to see it is he sounds so young in.
31:18Speaker 3
That well they make so much feel like the breathy voice must be the breathiness.
31:22Speaker 1
I don't know. Maybe he just feels young because he's very exciting.
31:27Speaker 7
You like that?
31:28Speaker 1
All right, Let's try another one and say if you can guess who this is.
31:34Speaker 7
And you never even said a word about any of it to me. I thought you trusted me and we trusted each other, but you betrayed.
31:48Speaker 4
Me and no, no, I am Oh you're sorry.
32:01Speaker 7
Now you're sorry. Here, we've been sorry. We all that's your chance, prove it to me.
32:19Speaker 4
Beg. You heard me.
32:28Speaker 7
Beg.
32:33Speaker 4
Sorry isn't good enough?
32:36Speaker 7
Not for the anguish I should when you left me?
32:38Speaker 2
Oh my god, this could easily be Flee Back season three, Andrew, You're so right.
32:44Speaker 1
Yeah, So what's really funny is that not only do they like get these guys, and they get them when they're doing a major project. The story kind of weaves in a little instead of like Neil, he's saying, beg, beg, and he says it so well, and he says it so so well.
33:04Speaker 2
I wish I had like a transcript to reply to what are you saying? Because I was like, Oh, I didn't say sorry, but maybe I should have.
33:10Speaker 1
Maybe I should have.
33:11Speaker 3
Okay, and I'm going to play you one more Okay, this one I've chosen to show you just how explicit it can go.
33:20Speaker 1
Oh god, we're gonna have to beat that so much.
33:24Speaker 8
Do you want me to fill you up?
33:26Speaker 4
Darling?
33:28Speaker 1
And I will, but first the bed moving.
33:33Speaker 8
I need you to get me ready for you come here and Niel, whoa that?
33:41Speaker 1
And your leg's still working after that?
33:42Speaker 4
Darling?
33:44Speaker 8
Yeah, let me help you. You're so pretty like this so hazy from Climax on your knees for me. Do you see how hard do you make me? How much I love making you feel good? I need you to spit on it.
34:05Speaker 1
For me, please, my god. Someone British, right, someone British is a tom BLI. No, I don't know any British men. Okay, that one was Jamie Campbell Bauer. Oh my god, stranger things, Stranger things. That's guys, Oh my god. Just if you're like imagining, he is really hot in real life. He's really really beautiful in realize.
34:36Speaker 2
And this is actually a good strategy for him because a lot of people he played Bena's so good.
34:41Speaker 3
Yeah, he's very good at being scary that a lot of people just hated him. But he really just came out and this was actually he's done two series on Quicks.
34:49Speaker 1
He loves it, he loves it.
34:51Speaker 3
He's come back for more, and whenever he's asked about it in the interviews, he can't speak highly enough of it. He's like, my god, I love that it's a female led company. I love that it prioritizes women's pleasure. He's all over it, like dream man. I can talk about other days like he's love of my life. Right, So he's done two series of it, which is great news for all the fans of like ones that have been in the past thing like we want more, we want more. Jamie has like come back and done another one, so you never know what could happen. But the reason why I wanted to talk about this today is because this morning I woke up and did my morning scroll. I don't do it an hour and forty five minutes.
35:34Speaker 1
It's getting I scroll instare in TikTok instead.
35:37Speaker 3
And they're also very healthy habits, very healthy habits. They have started teasing their next Quinn original with a famous person.
35:49Speaker 1
Who is it. It would appear to be Sam Hewan from Outlander.
35:55Speaker 7
Stop.
35:56Speaker 1
They are so smart, good, are so blad, They so know what the girls want.
36:03Speaker 9
Oh, it's always hot men as well. They're always the hottest I know. And they also do you know what, they're all really good guys too. Yeah, there's no one on their rostar that you're like, oh, he's like there's complaints about him or there's something weird, Like they just they're good guys.
36:18Speaker 1
They do their background racent.
36:20Speaker 2
And it's also like this new wave of famous men and it's like I feel like it's a generational thing. Where like all the Hollywood men are kind of like aicked out by the like girl fan base because they.
36:30Speaker 1
Don't want to make movies for girls.
36:31Speaker 2
Yeshe was like, these men are leaning right in because we're the ones who are spending money to watch them exactly in our movies. Yeah, and they're like doing how I don't know, I feel like their career path, we're doing this is the absolute correct choice for them as well as like the Quinn girls, like I feel like it would have been so hard to develop like pretty much a pawn app for women, but also wanting it to be as like socially out there, like I feel like for women, firstly, no porn is ever made for women, and then for women.
37:02Speaker 1
To watch porn, we have to pretend we don't.
37:04Speaker 2
Yeah, and like with Quinn, it's like giving us a safe space to like share these videos with friends, to show them off and be like, yes, this is exactly what we want.
37:13Speaker 1
Well, that is so that it's so true.
37:15Speaker 3
And you know where one of the best places on the internet is the comments section, Yeah, Quinn's TikTok and Instagram, particularly TikTok because people are just funnier on there anyway.
37:25Speaker 1
But like I have this.
37:26Speaker 3
Theory that I know where all the hardcore directioners have grown up and gone, because no fan base was funnier, hornier, smarter the directions.
37:38Speaker 1
Now they're all Quin listeners.
37:40Speaker 2
They're all Queen listeners and probably Quinn writers. Yeah, Quinn, they're writing them scripts.
37:44Speaker 3
Yeah, but you know what they do tap really great writers to write these stories.
37:48Speaker 1
Well, it's like a proper like story. It's not like you're suddenly in the middle of it. No, no, no, It's it's like a beginning middle story.
37:58Speaker 3
So Jamie's story is like kind of a bit Draco Hermione coded.
38:02Speaker 1
It's one of those like Drake really good at.
38:04Speaker 3
Finding like the zeitgeisty things that the girlies are reading that's on platforms like AO three, which is like where all the.
38:10Speaker 1
Fan fit goes.
38:11Speaker 3
Speaking of I discovered on x there is so much AO three smart stories about the Pit.
38:19Speaker 1
It hasn't ever been going that long.
38:21Speaker 3
But the girls are at home like girls away, right, So I created the most like full on stories about the Pit. Okay, I need to know who you want to see next on Quinn.
38:31Speaker 1
Let me think who would be great? Can I tell you mine?
38:34Speaker 5
Yeah?
38:34Speaker 1
Can you tell me you tell me yours.
38:35Speaker 2
Well, I think I was thinking of this while we were just listening to those Donald Glover as childish Gambino. He was meant to come to send me to do a concert in like I think, I want to say, twenty eighteen nineteen, and he broke his foot and he couldn't perform, and I had bought VIP tickets for me and my sister and I wasn't even working then, and I sent him along Instagram message. I was disappointed that he didn't come.
39:02Speaker 1
And he didn't make it up to you by doing a Quinn. Yeah, he can make it up to me doing Quinn.
39:06Speaker 2
But I think, like I want my story to be him replying to me and going, okay, I'll do a private concept for you at my house.
39:13Speaker 1
Oh my god, I love this and that can be our whole queen story.
39:16Speaker 6
But actually went.
39:17Speaker 1
Out because you've put yourself in the narrative. I don't know what.
39:20Speaker 3
You're not wrong to do it, because that is actually the way that the stories are written. Like when you listen to them in the story, they're the partner in the story.
39:29Speaker 1
I like that.
39:30Speaker 3
Yeah, okay, I do have mine. Okay, it's Joseph Morgan.
39:35Speaker 1
It's Joseph.
39:36Speaker 3
He played Klaus in The Vampire Diaries and the Originals.
39:40Speaker 1
I need to look this up. I need to look this he makes look it up. He was like the really bad one.
39:45Speaker 3
He was like a really bad He's so sexy. He also has not aged, so I think he might.
39:50Speaker 1
Actually he's an English actor. He is an English actor.
39:54Speaker 3
He was so sexy as Klaus. I'd love him to just like can he as a vampire?
40:00Speaker 1
Yeah? Well a vampire.
40:01Speaker 3
He was a vampire werewolf highbrid because he was like way too powerful.
40:05Speaker 1
Oh, the most powerful and the bad guy.
40:07Speaker 3
Yeah, the most powerful and the bad guy. And I think he'd nail it, but I want him to do it as Klaus.
40:13Speaker 1
Yes, he would nail it. Yeah, canail You amen to that. Thank you so much for listening to the Spill today.
