THEME SONG:

Someone's gotta settle the score.

THEME SONG:

Baby, it's time to Review That Review!

TREY:

Hi!

CHELSEY:

Hi!

CHELSEY:

Oh My God.

CHELSEY:

I love that.

TREY:

I just, um, interrupted in the jingle to show this beautiful lion

TREY:

She's wearing a crown anyway.

TREY:

Uh, welcome to Review That Review.

TREY:

This is episode three of the podcast dedicated to reviewing...

CHELSEY:

...Reviews!

CHELSEY:

We're just like Siskel and Ebert only instead of reviewing cinematic masterpieces, we

TREY:

Mmm-hmm, Yep.

TREY:

That's true.

TREY:

And that's - speaking right then - was Chelsey Donn!

CHELSEY:

And that's Trey Gerrald.

TREY:

and together we're:

VOICEOVER:

The Review Queens!

CHELSEY:

How's her your crown today.

CHELSEY:

Trey?

TREY:

You know, I opted for a Tiara.

TREY:

It just sort of felt right.

CHELSEY:

How's your week been?

TREY:

Wow!

TREY:

You know, honestly, it's been a really good week.

TREY:

I was fortunate to go visit my sister who lives in North Carolina.

CHELSEY:

That's right!

TREY:

She, yeah, she's very pregnant.

TREY:

She's due like in less than six weeks.

TREY:

And, um, her first child is about to become TWO!

TREY:

Well.

TREY:

He turns two in six weeks.

TREY:

So like her due date is literally, almost exactly his birthday.

CHELSEY:

Ugh!

TREY:

I know it's crazy.

CHELSEY:

That's scary.

CHELSEY:

I hope they don't have the same birthday.

TREY:

Yeah.

TREY:

She also hopes that as well.

TREY:

And then my mom's birthday is like a week before, so she's also hoping like

TREY:

Uh, yeah.

TREY:

I actually had a good week.

TREY:

What about, like what about you?

TREY:

How was your week?

CHELSEY:

I had a pretty good week.

CHELSEY:

I, you know, back in LA now as well.

CHELSEY:

So back in my home turf and back to doing a little bit of my freelance work and I had to plan

CHELSEY:

So that was.

CHELSEY:

Fun.

CHELSEY:

Also, there was, um, a bit of a like olive oil spill.

CHELSEY:

One of the kids knocked olive oil off the table.

CHELSEY:

And so there was shattered glass everywhere, which was a nightmare, but

CHELSEY:

So...

TREY:

When you said olive oil.

TREY:

My first thought was like Shelley Duvall.

TREY:

In the Popeye's movie.

TREY:

Why?

CHELSEY:

What do you mean?

TREY:

You said olive oil and instead of..

CHELSEY:

Oh!

CHELSEY:

Olive Oil!, like olive oil, the character "Olive Oil."

TREY:

Yeah, why did I think that?

CHELSEY:

I don't know.

CHELSEY:

Cause maybe you're just not expecting me to say that?

CHELSEY:

You were like, I don't know your mind was on Popeye.

TREY:

But I've never, like, I haven't thought of that movie in years.

CHELSEY:

I don't know, but it's like if you're going to spill glass terrible, but the

TREY:

Yeah, well, it's a very precious...

CHELSEY:

...yeah, it is.

CHELSEY:

It's a precious item.

CHELSEY:

It's not something you want to waste, but I'm fine.

CHELSEY:

I'm good.

CHELSEY:

All in all life is good.

CHELSEY:

LA is beautiful.

CHELSEY:

I can't really complain, but I'm sure we're gonna find a way to do it anyway.

TREY:

Oh, that sounds like a beautiful segue.

CHELSEY:

...to...

VOICEOVER:

Lodge A Complaint.

TREY:

Oh boy.

CHELSEY:

All right.

TREY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

Do you have something you want to complain about this week?

TREY:

Yeah.

TREY:

Okay.

TREY:

So I, this is sort of a tangent, but I am taking this platform to officially Lodge A

CHELSEY:

Mmmmm!

TREY:

Okay.

TREY:

So I, at my sister's house, I took on the task of making the Spanish rice when

TREY:

And it was a box of Rice-A-Roni, which I don't, I think I've never in...

CHELSEY:

San Francisco Treat!

... TREY:

my life, okay.

... TREY:

Hello.

... TREY:

I haven't purchased Rice-A-Roni like, I don't think ever actually but I.

... TREY:

Like you just did.

... TREY:

I was emptying the box and I was like, "Rice-A-Roni, San Francisco treat!"

... TREY:

And then I could not get it out of my head.

CHELSEY:

Awwwwww!

TREY:

And then my sister, like I mentioned it, my sister and I have this like running

TREY:

I never saw it until I lived in New York, but It's like a bunch of people on a city bus and

TREY:

And there's like a lawyer.

TREY:

And then there's like a mom and whatever, but it's like, "When you have a structured

TREY:

Call J G Wentworth!

TREY:

Eight

BOTH!:

Eight seven seven Cash-NOW!

TREY:

Wait,

CHELSEY:

I remember that.

TREY:

Wait, You remember it from like New Jersey or like from LA.

CHELSEY:

I think it was an east coast thing, but I definitely remember it

TREY:

Have you ever heard the Carmel jingle?

CHELSEY:

Carmel?

CHELSEY:

Remind me...

TREY:

It's like a car service.

TREY:

It really...

CHELSEY:

oh.

TREY:

...happened in that moment right before like Uber and Lyft took off.

TREY:

6, 6, 6, 6, 6 66.

CHELSEY:

Oh, no.

TREY:

Goin' to the airport, driving around town, shopping for a movie, the

TREY:

Carmel is the number to know!," but it was like clearly a non-union commercial because

TREY:

And there's this one guy on the left probably like has never taken a dance class in his life.

TREY:

And it's just, It is like, chef's kiss so beautiful, but he like, can't it is just, gosh,

TREY:

Anyway.

TREY:

Oh, okay.

TREY:

Anyway, that's the whole point is I could not say stop singing the "San Francisco Treat."

TREY:

It was stuck in my head, the entire trip.

TREY:

So I'm Lodging A Complaint because that's precious, like memory space, like it's

TREY:

Haha.

TREY:

Like there's even like an Ellen standup joke.

TREY:

Like from back in the day before she had a talk show about like,

CHELSEY:

By Mennen!

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

TREY:

But boy, is that true?

TREY:

So I'm officially lodged that complaint all commercial jingle writers.

TREY:

You must do better except major kudos to our podcast, jingle

CHELSEY:

Which also gets stuck in my head all the time, but I don't care...

TREY:

but that's good.

TREY:

So good job, Joe Kinosian and great job, Natalie Weiss, the vocalist.

CHELSEY:

I guess the question is like, at what point do we change it up?

CHELSEY:

Like we gotta give kudos to Rice-A-Roni, cause they've been holding on to

TREY:

But you know who else has been holding onto it?

TREY:

ME!

TREY:

Cause I can't get it out of my head.

TREY:

And that is my complaint.

TREY:

Chelsey.

TREY:

Do you have any complaints you want to lodge?

CHELSEY:

I do.

CHELSEY:

I have the complaint about false advertising on packaging.

TREY:

Whoa, we're both doing ads.

TREY:

Interesting.

CHELSEY:

Oh yeah.

CHELSEY:

Interesting.

CHELSEY:

I didn't think about that.

CHELSEY:

Yeah, so I ...granted was at Rite-Aid so like expectations should be low.

CHELSEY:

I wanted to get a little like present for the eight year old and there's this

CHELSEY:

These two balls stay with me and they're attached by a string and you kind of launch it in the air.

CHELSEY:

And the goal is to get the balls to wrap around one of the rings of the ladder, but not fall off.

CHELSEY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

So I was like, oh, this is fun.

CHELSEY:

It's getting hot out summer.

TREY:

Question...

CHELSEY:

...nice outdoor game.

CHELSEY:

Question?

TREY:

Is this like the like Rite-Aid branded, like $5 game situation.

CHELSEY:

Now, it was not Rite-Aid branded, however, it was 50% off.

TREY:

Okay.

TREY:

Keep going.

CHELSEY:

So maybe that should have cued me up, but I've played this game before and the

CHELSEY:

And we had a jolly old time and it was great.

CHELSEY:

And I was like, wow, what a steal for this game?

CHELSEY:

I can't believe my friend Chris and Steph...

CHELSEY:

maybe they bought this at Rite-Aid.

CHELSEY:

Wow, I'm going to get this for the kids.

CHELSEY:

It's going to be a great hit.

CHELSEY:

And then I took it out of the box and it wasn't, it was like laughable how different the product

CHELSEY:

Like it was just not even in the same league.

CHELSEY:

It was probably like half the size.

CHELSEY:

They clearly purchased the good version, did a whole photo shoot with the good version of the

CHELSEY:

And that's why it was half off clearly.

CHELSEY:

Really learnt my lesson, but I am lodging a complaint against false photographic

CHELSEY:

And there were lots of sexual innuendos in that...

CHELSEY:

unintended!

TREY:

Oh, yes.

TREY:

Yes.

CHELSEY:

Just saying!

TREY:

Pure of heart.

TREY:

Pure of mind.

TREY:

Chelsey Donn.

CHELSEY:

I'm holding my crown high.

CHELSEY:

Okay.

But I will say:

messed up.

But I will say:

I'm glad I got to talk to you about that.

But I will say:

Cause like I had to play it off.

But I will say:

Like it was okay in front of the kids.

TREY:

Well, that's what I was going to say is I recognize that you're like,

TREY:

It's like, we're at that age when it's like, you're the aunt or uncle.

TREY:

And you're like, okay, I know that you had this amazing little contraption in

TREY:

But when I was your age, we played with a ladder and a ball and string

TREY:

And then it's uh, like you're already facing an uphill battle.

TREY:

Like.

CHELSEY:

Yeah, and I really like oversold it too.

CHELSEY:

I was like, "Hey, guys!

CHELSEY:

Got a lawn game for us!".

CHELSEY:

You know?

TREY:

Oh my God.

CHELSEY:

It's okay.

CHELSEY:

I'm.

CHELSEY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

Now I do feel better.

CHELSEY:

Now that we've discussed it.

CHELSEY:

Ah, it's exhale time.

CHELSEY:

Gotta let it out.

CHELSEY:

I feel great.

CHELSEY:

I feel great about letting that out.

CHELSEY:

Do you feel good?

TREY:

I feel really good, actually, yes.

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

CHELSEY:

I think it's time for us to hear some other people's complaints.

TREY:

Hey, that sounds great.

TREY:

Cause I think that that's why we're all here.

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

CHELSEY:

As you guys know, we are your trusty Review Queens.

CHELSEY:

We each bring in a review from the internet that we feel needs to be inspected.

CHELSEY:

We read you the review, we break it down and then we rate the impact.

CHELSEY:

Other view on a scale from one to five crowns, it's a very Regal process that we call.

VOICEOVER:

Assess That Kvetch!

TREY:

Oh, but Chelsey, my dear, for those of us who don't speak Yiddish, what does that word mean?

CHELSEY:

'Kvetch!' It means complaints like, "I'm kvetching!"

TREY:

Oy Gut!.

CHELSEY:

Oy Gavalt!

CHELSEY:

Rolls right off the tongue, right?

CHELSEY:

Am I first, or are you first?

TREY:

I'm first?

TREY:

I'm first.

CHELSEY:

Your first yay.

CHELSEY:

Takes the pressure off me.

CHELSEY:

All right.

CHELSEY:

Take it away.

CHELSEY:

Trey.

CHELSEY:

You Review Queen.

CHELSEY:

Let's do it.

VOICEOVER:

Review That Review.

TREY:

This one I'm actually like, I'm excited about...

TREY:

I'm a little nervous about,

CHELSEY:

Don't be nervous.

TREY:

okay.

TREY:

So my review today is from Audible Books.

CHELSEY:

Mmmm.

CHELSEY:

My Fave!

TREY:

And this is a review of the narration of Valley of the Dolls.

CHELSEY:

Oh, wow.

CHELSEY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

I'm gonna take notes.

TREY:

And this is like, they rate on a bunch of different scales for audible books.

TREY:

So there's like the overall score, then there's the performance score.

TREY:

And then there's the story score.

TREY:

So overall is a two out of five stars, performance is a one out of five stars.

TREY:

And then story is three out of five.

TREY:

And this is from Terry B.

CHELSEY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

Terry B.

TREY:

All right.

TREY:

The subject here is all caps.

TREY:

Don't do it.

TREY:

This was by far and away, the worst narration ever.

TREY:

Although I enjoyed Laverne Cox in Orange is the New Black her performance here parentheses or

TREY:

I had never read this classic and decided that I would persevere through the bad narration and

TREY:

Impossible.

TREY:

"Impossible."

TREY:

Sorry.

TREY:

No matter how hard I tried, I could not force myself to continue.

TREY:

The characters were indistinguishable.

TREY:

And constantly changed throughout.

TREY:

I wished I had returned this book and considering this was an Audible Exclusive,

TREY:

If you want to read this book, then do just that.

TREY:

Read it.

TREY:

Do not waste a credit to listen to it.

TREY:

Yeah.

TREY:

Yeah

CHELSEY:

Wow.

CHELSEY:

Terry B, that was intense.

CHELSEY:

I also love Laverne Cox.

CHELSEY:

And so if you're not paying for the Patreon and you did not see the video,

CHELSEY:

Cause I, I love her.

TREY:

She's an icon.

CHELSEY:

She's an icon.

TREY:

hero.

CHELSEY:

A True hero.

CHELSEY:

all of us should be so lucky.

CHELSEY:

To grace, the earth with her magnitude.

TREY:

But I, I guess, um, Terry did not.

CHELSEY:

Terry didn't agree.

CHELSEY:

So like, I'm going to need to try to put my own personal feelings aside a

TREY:

It is, this is interesting to me because it's specifically a review of the narration of

CHELSEY:

Yeah, I mean, that's true.

CHELSEY:

I like I'm somebody that listens to audibles all the time.

TREY:

oh, really?

CHELSEY:

Yes, I do.

CHELSEY:

And I have a lot of heated conversations about people with people about whether

CHELSEY:

However, I will say that the narration does make all the difference in the world.

CHELSEY:

When you have a great storyteller who can really change up their voice and things like

CHELSEY:

So I'm with Terry on, yes.

CHELSEY:

I think that the narration can, can affect the experience.

CHELSEY:

So I'll give her that to say was the worst narration ever.

CHELSEY:

And to say that audible should have done a better job of hiring someone more qualified.

CHELSEY:

I think is ridiculous.

CHELSEY:

Considering it's Laverne Cox!.

CHELSEY:

I mean, clearly they hired an icon whose a famous actor.

TREY:

Okay.

TREY:

but I want to push back because I do believe that acting is different from voiceover work.

TREY:

Does Laverne Cox have experience as like a professional voiceover narration artists?

TREY:

Cause you just, all the skills you listed.

TREY:

I have dabbled in acting, but I have never dabbled in voiceover.

TREY:

I don't think I have that skill set.

TREY:

I think there is a, in my opinion, there's a little distinguishable skillset difference.

TREY:

It crosses over often, but

CHELSEY:

That's fair.

TREY:

Because Laverne Cox is known as an actor, not as a voiceover artist,

CHELSEY:

Very true.

CHELSEY:

Good distinction.

TREY:

My opinion, my opinion,

CHELSEY:

No, I appreciate the pushback and I think that's true.

CHELSEY:

Was it embarrassing?

CHELSEY:

I don't know.

CHELSEY:

It's so hard to say, right?

TREY:

There is a preview.

CHELSEY:

Oh, okay.

CHELSEY:

Let's hear it.

TREY:

Let's do a little listen.

CHELSEY:

Okay, please.

LAVERNE COX:

"If I had your looks, I head straight for John Powers or Conover."

LAVERNE COX:

Who are they?"

LAVERNE COX:

Ann asked.

LAVERNE COX:

"They run the top modeling agencies in town.

LAVERNE COX:

That's what I'd love to do only I'm too short and not skinny enough.

LAVERNE COX:

But, you're just what they're looking for."

LAVERNE COX:

"I think I'd rather work in an office."

LAVERNE COX:

Ann said.

LAVERNE COX:

"Okay.

LAVERNE COX:

But I think you're crazy."

TREY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

I liked it.

CHELSEY:

I found it very soothing.

CHELSEY:

I can imagine myself being relaxed and listening to Laverne read Valley of the

CHELSEY:

I've never read.

CHELSEY:

I know it's like a very popular book.

CHELSEY:

I feel like that's why Terry B is so upset because it's like seeing a movie

CHELSEY:

And then you hear you see it and you're like, oh, this isn't the way it was playing out in my mind.

CHELSEY:

Like, I kind of feel like that's what happened with Terry B.

CHELSEY:

Terry B was envisioning something very specific and that thing was not Laverne Cox.

CHELSEY:

So when the story was being told by Laverne Cox, she was like, what is this?

CHELSEY:

This is ruining my experience, but I didn't really mind it did you?

TREY:

You know, it's interesting.

TREY:

Cause I, I was looking at other people's reviews and one person like a separate reviewer

TREY:

And I did sort of notice that, like that other review was mentioning how like redundant

TREY:

But, you know, I don't know.

TREY:

You know, I feel like I do think that I do find it to be it.

TREY:

A valuable opinion review cause someone did really have like a very strong reaction

TREY:

It was really hard to be in the story.

TREY:

They kept being pulled out and were distracted by the lack of character development and then

CHELSEY:

There's value there.

CHELSEY:

I hear you.

CHELSEY:

I mean, and the person seemed coherent.

CHELSEY:

Like, I don't know like what their spelling and grammar looked like, obviously.

CHELSEY:

But

TREY:

It's perfect.

TREY:

There's like literally not a misspelling anywhere.

TREY:

And they use parentheticals and like they, they do seem intelligent.

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

CHELSEY:

I wasn't like that entertained by her because I don't feel like I knew her, but that's

CHELSEY:

I don't know.

TREY:

Yeah.

TREY:

I don't know.

TREY:

That's a great question though.

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

TREY:

I mean, at least like be entertaining.

CHELSEY:

Like we have different biases here because I listened to a lot

CHELSEY:

And I've had some really, really bad experiences.

CHELSEY:

Like I, I have a disorder or whatever you want to call it called PCOS.

CHELSEY:

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

CHELSEY:

So I got an audible about that and the entire audible kept calling it P-COS.

CHELSEY:

Which like never in medical history, has anyone ever called this disease P-Cos!

CHELSEY:

And that was an example of when I was like, someone should have really caught this.

TREY:

That's horrible.

CHELSEY:

And so, because that's where I'm coming from.

CHELSEY:

I'm like, whatever girl, like you got Valley of the Dolls, you got Laverne

CHELSEY:

I've seen some like real stinkers on Audible.

TREY:

Do you think that Terry B is being truthful?

TREY:

Do we believe that?

TREY:

I mean, it just, it

CHELSEY:

I mean, it's, it feels subjective.

CHELSEY:

Like I believe that this was her experience.

CHELSEY:

I don't think I don't.

CHELSEY:

I think that I liked the fact that she commented on, she was a Laverne Cox fan.

CHELSEY:

She liked Orange is the New Black.

CHELSEY:

I think she was saying all of that so that we would know, like I'm not a hater.

CHELSEY:

Of Laverne Cox, like I'm not coming to this space to just hate on this person

CHELSEY:

I had actually pretty high hopes for this person and I was disappointed and I feel like

TREY:

Yeah, I do have, I agree.

TREY:

I kind of have a little bit of a Karen radar, Karen-Dar going off at the end about sort

TREY:

Like you would think they would shout but they kind of do have a point, but like, I.

CHELSEY:

So, but like, I, maybe it's also biased, like in the entertainment industry, but I can't

CHELSEY:

I don't know, like what were they supposed to do?

TREY:

Well, to me, I think that if you have, like, I think the point Terry is making is

TREY:

So like, I think that's why they, like, I think they did get someone really

TREY:

That's a voiceover talent, you know?

CHELSEY:

Yeah, totally.

CHELSEY:

Are we ready?

TREY:

you know, honestly, I, yeah, I could just go.

CHELSEY:

I think I have enough information to crown it.

TREY:

Mmm-hmm, me too.

CHELSEY:

All right.

CHELSEY:

So Trey and I each have our own set of one to five crown cards and in an effort to

VOICEOVER:

The Queens are Tabulating!

TREY:

All right, Chels, You ready to show?

CHELSEY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

I am ready.

VOICEOVER:

Total Score!.

TREY:

Oh, okay.

TREY:

So I'm holding up five crowns and Chelsey's holding up three.

CHELSEY:

Wow.

CHELSEY:

Trey, you pull up, you think that Terry B is a Review Queen.

TREY:

I do only because the whole point of a review is based on your personal opinion.

TREY:

And I feel like Terry did not didn't throw any low punches.

TREY:

Terry.

TREY:

Exactly.

TREY:

The points you just made.

TREY:

Terry was like, I was looking forward to Laverne Cox.

TREY:

I appreciate who they are.

TREY:

They use the proper pronouns.

TREY:

I think she, I think Laverne Cox uses she/her.

TREY:

Yeah.

CHELSEY:

Okay.

TREY:

But they, you know, I, I believed the Terry came in with the right intentions

TREY:

So like, I didn't think they had malice.

TREY:

I think they were sharing their experience.

TREY:

And so for that, I gave it five, even though it wasn't very entertaining, which is fine.

TREY:

I mean, she was short to the point.

TREY:

And so I gave Terry five, you gave Terry three, explain.

CHELSEY:

I did give Terry three.

CHELSEY:

Just because first of all, like I reserved my fives for my true Review Queens, which in

CHELSEY:

I think a four, four crowns is a very, you know, strong review, uh, assessment from me.

CHELSEY:

So that the audience knows I did three because I thought it was a little bit hyperbolic to

CHELSEY:

So just based on bringing my own experience to my evaluation as a regular Audible consumer.

CHELSEY:

That was why I landed with three, three crowns for Terry B.

CHELSEY:

And I feel confident in that, but I respect your five crowns.

TREY:

You know, I really feel like, I feel like I always like consistently

TREY:

Cause you're right.

TREY:

The very first sentence is like far and away, the worst narration ever, which.

TREY:

Anyway, I guess I'm sticking with the five

CHELSEY:

stick with it.

CHELSEY:

If that was your feeling for Terry B.

CHELSEY:

Terry, B is your Review Queen!

TREY:

It just proves how convincing you are as a Review Queen that you really made me consider it.

TREY:

Yeah,

CHELSEY:

Well, thank you.

CHELSEY:

That was fun.

CHELSEY:

It's time for a little bit of a palette cleanse.

CHELSEY:

Maybe before we hop back in.

TREY:

totally.

TREY:

All right.

TREY:

So we'll go onto a quick break right now.

TREY:

And then when we come back, we'll play with Meryl.

TREY:

Before we get into Chels-Chels's review.

CHELSEY:

Love it, BRB.

CHELSEY:

BRB.

VOICEOVER:

Hold your crown, we'll be right back.

TREY:

Yay.

TREY:

Oh my gosh, Chelsey it's game time.

TREY:

It's time to take a quick little spin on the Meryl-Go-Round.

VOICEOVER:

"I don't feel like an icon.

VOICEOVER:

Most of the days I feel like, 'I can't!"

VOICEOVER:

That's with an, A."

CHELSEY:

I feel Meryl so hard in that quote every time,

TREY:

Ugh, me too.

CHELSEY:

Sometimes, most of the time, I guess I do feel like an "I can't" too, Meryl.

CHELSEY:

Anyway, here's the deal, Trey and I each pick a rotten scathing, pithy one-star zinger.

CHELSEY:

And with 30 seconds on the clock, we will take turns, reciting the

TREY:

Just like queen Meryl, who does it all.

CHELSEY:

Before the clock runs out.

CHELSEY:

Ooh, my review is from Google.

CHELSEY:

It is a review of the closest Walmart to my area.

CHELSEY:

And the review is from Jason M and Jason M says, "smallest Walmart in hissst!"

CHELSEY:

There are three S's,

TREY:

it doesn't say, "-ory?"

CHELSEY:

Hissst!.

TREY:

Is that like what the kids say now?

CHELSEY:

Apparently,

TREY:

Oh my God.

TREY:

Okay.

TREY:

All right.

TREY:

All right.

TREY:

You ready to hop on?

CHELSEY:

I feel like I need, let me just a little bit of water before I go into that.

CHELSEY:

All right.

CHELSEY:

I'm ready.

VOICEOVER:

CHELSEY:

VOICEOVER:

"That's All!"

CHELSEY:

I don't know if I'm hitting any of these genres like Meryl.

TREY:

No, I think you're so good at this.

TREY:

And it makes me so mad.

TREY:

Like my absolute favorite of you every time is opera diva.

TREY:

Cause it's so funny.

TREY:

Okay.

TREY:

Chelsey you did so good.

TREY:

You did 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

CHELSEY:

Wow.

TREY:

That might be the best so far.

CHELSEY:

Thank God.

CHELSEY:

He didn't finish history or else I might have not finished with that many.

TREY:

That's impressive.

CHELSEY:

Are you ready?

TREY:

I'm ready?

CHELSEY:

Okay.

TREY:

All right.

TREY:

So I'll tell you guys mine.

TREY:

So my one star zinger is from Amazon Reviews and Okay.

TREY:

I wish...

TREY:

maybe we can put the picture on Instagram because it's for a long gray wizard, wig and beard.

TREY:

And when I tell you it is the most hilarious image in the world and the subject is "This sucks!"

TREY:

And the review that is written is, "totally sucks."

CHELSEY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

Great.

TREY:

Talk about piffy.

CHELSEY:

I mean, at least we know that they know three words,

TREY:

that's true.

CHELSEY:

are you ready?

TREY:

Yes, I'm ready.

VOICEOVER:

Three.

VOICEOVER:

CHELSEY:

Lifetime!

VOICEOVER:

That's all.

CHELSEY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

Freaking great as well.

TREY:

I know but it was two words, It's kind of cheating

CHELSEY:

No, it wasn't

CHELSEY:

Six!.

CHELSEY:

We tied!

CHELSEY:

Six and six!, wow.

TREY:

Wow.

TREY:

I'm so proud of us.

TREY:

We both tied!

CHELSEY:

I'm so proud of us too!

CHELSEY:

We got to leave that as both winners.

TREY:

Your's was really funny.

TREY:

That Was like, that was a good round.

TREY:

"Hissst!"

TREY:

All right.

TREY:

So, should we jump back in.

CHELSEY:

I think we have to

VOICEOVER:

Review That Review.

TREY:

Alright.

TREY:

We're back from the game break.

TREY:

And now it is Chelsey Donn's turn.

TREY:

What is your review this week?

CHELSEY:

This week, I will be reviewing a place that I am embarrassingly went to

TREY:

Oh, really?

TREY:

Well, you used to, live on near 42nd street, right?

CHELSEY:

I did, I used to live near 42nd Street, but also like in college, when

CHELSEY:

So we would find our way there a lot.

CHELSEY:

So

TREY:

No judgment.

TREY:

I mean, hello, unlimited breadsticks.

CHELSEY:

Soup, Salad, breadsticks.

CHELSEY:

I mean, great lunch.

CHELSEY:

I was there.

TREY:

So where is it from?

CHELSEY:

It is from Yelp.

CHELSEY:

It is written by Crystal W who I will point out she's going to point it out anyway, but I

CHELSEY:

She has written, over 236 reviews.

CHELSEY:

this is 237, I believe.

CHELSEY:

and she includes, she's included 414 photos in her reviews.

CHELSEY:

So Crystal considers herself quite wise.

TREY:

Whoa.

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

TREY:

All right, I'm ready.

CHELSEY:

You probably think as a Yelp elite, I am crazy to go to Olive Garden

CHELSEY:

So they was wanted to do all the touristy things.

CHELSEY:

We stopped by for dinner on 12/30/2019 at 4:45 PM.

CHELSEY:

The first red flag was our waitress, Kashaya, did not write down anything down.

CHELSEY:

She memorized our orders, but that's definitely not fail-proof.

CHELSEY:

She went around the table to repeat our orders and already forgot one person's.

CHELSEY:

We ordered Chicken Alfredo, Seafood Alfredo, Eggplant Parmesan, and Create Your Own Pasta

CHELSEY:

The food took forever to arrive, but yes, I understand.

CHELSEY:

It's busy in New York City, especially on the Eve of New Years, new year's Eve.

CHELSEY:

When our breadsticks, soup, salad arrived, our waitress forgot the cheese grater, and that

CHELSEY:

She disappeared for 30 minutes.

CHELSEY:

Our entree came out shortly after our soup...

CHELSEY:

soup, salad.

CHELSEY:

If that gives you an idea of how long it took, I asked her where our alcoholic beverages were

CHELSEY:

I guess she forgot she explained the beers on tap and that the Pinot Grigio Cavet might be out.

CHELSEY:

And if I wanted a substitute.

CHELSEY:

So, we got our drinks with the entrees probably would've helped if she wrote

CHELSEY:

There was hardly any sauce we had to use our Alfredo Boat and pour sauce onto our entree.

CHELSEY:

We were scared to ask our waitress for more sauce because she would have disappeared

CHELSEY:

Finally, our party of four, had an automatic tip of 18% applied to our $120 bill before tax.

CHELSEY:

Our service definitely did NOT deserve an 18% tip.

CHELSEY:

Our waitress even forgot to give us mints with the bill until I reminded her.

CHELSEY:

Overall an epic fail.

CHELSEY:

I tried calling the restaurant manager, Michael, several times on 12/30 and 12/31, but

CHELSEY:

I'm glad I didn't make New Year's Eve dinner reservations here for $250 a person.

CHELSEY:

Otherwise I would be pissed spending close to $1K.

TREY:

Oh, my God.

TREY:

Okay another great pick.

CHELSEY:

Thank you.

TREY:

First of all, I just, the first thing I have to say here, is you know

CHELSEY:

Hated.

CHELSEY:

I mean, worst nightmare.

TREY:

I'm just imagining like all of that happening.

TREY:

And I think there's faults, obviously there are faults, but then at the very end to

TREY:

You didn't bring our mints."

TREY:

Oh my God.

TREY:

Just imagine the, like the personality of being in the service industry, especially

CHELSEY:

And maybe they changed this, but like back in the day, when I used

CHELSEY:

So like, you could grab them in if you needed a minute on the way.

CHELSEY:

I mean, the men's are delicious.

CHELSEY:

Let's not

TREY:

I don't really remember.

TREY:

Are they those like mint Andes?

CHELSEY:

They're Andes mints.

TREY:

And it's traditional that you get at, like with the bill, right?

CHELSEY:

You do.

CHELSEY:

You usually get one per person or two per people, depending on how big your party is with

TREY:

No.

TREY:

And halfway through the review, did I realize it's probably like that salad dressing, silver

TREY:

Like it took me that long to realize that's probably what it is.

CHELSEY:

Do you think that's on the menu or do you think that was an off menu...

TREY:

I dunno...

CHELSEY:

...request?

CHELSEY:

I've never heard of an Alfredo Boat.

TREY:

Maybe it is a thing I don't like you could order it as a side?

TREY:

Ew.

TREY:

Ew,

CHELSEY:

Gross.

CHELSEY:

Also, we got two Alfredo dishes and an Alfredo Boat and there wasn't enough Alfredo.

TREY:

I have a question, it say where Crystal is crystal like a tourist in New York?

CHELSEY:

she, yes.

CHELSEY:

Crystal is a tourist in New York.

CHELSEY:

It doesn't say as far as my records where she's from.

TREY:

Yeah.

TREY:

Well, because at the beginning, it's when she's talking about the kids, the phrasing is they

TREY:

It's not like Baltimore, like Philly or something they was wanted.

CHELSEY:

I don't know, there are a few weird grammatical errors like that along the way that

TREY:

What about spelling?

TREY:

Was there bad spelling?

TREY:

Cause there was a lot of grammar stuff.

CHELSEY:

There was no bad spelling.

CHELSEY:

The spelling was fine.

CHELSEY:

The grammar was wonky in quite a few places.

CHELSEY:

She was very passionate about this review.

TREY:

It was really funny to me, like, cause I, I have been a waiter.

TREY:

I also have been weighted upon and I do always have a little, like, like a little like gut

TREY:

And that was policy, the restaurant I worked at, we had to write it down, but like to go around the

CHELSEY:

Yeah, like there, there's no doubt that Kashaya?

CHELSEY:

I think Kashaya was having a bad day.

CHELSEY:

I can't imagine working in Times Square, even just the Eve of New Year's Eve.

TREY:

okay.

TREY:

I wrote that phrase down.

TREY:

I hate that.

TREY:

I hate when I hate.

TREY:

Okay.

TREY:

It's called New Year's Eve.

CHELSEY:

Right.

TREY:

Eve of New Year's Eve is not a thing.

TREY:

Christmas Eve, Eve of Christmas Eve.

TREY:

No.

TREY:

That's not a thing, but, I get, it's like just a cute, more concise way to, but like obviously

CHELSEY:

Yes!

TREY:

You have to like have an outrageous number of staffing for that event.

TREY:

So it's literally like the Eve of New Year's Eve is like the calm before the storm.

CHELSEY:

Right!

TREY:

So, I just like, I can't, A, imagine working in Times Square, B, for those ho oh my God.

TREY:

Like I just I, my empathy is already not with Crystal.

TREY:

It is with Keysha, Kesha.

TREY:

Kashaya

CHELSEY:

Kashaya, I think.

TREY:

How is it spelled?.

CHELSEY:

K A S H A Y A.

TREY:

Oh, that's pretty.

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

CHELSEY:

Kashaya.

TREY:

I also think it's funny that at the beginning she says that she disappeared

TREY:

Like, what?

TREY:

Also Like..

CHELSEY:

No, I don't want to guess you told me.

TREY:

Do you think that Crystal is like holding a stopwatch because she references

CHELSEY:

Yeah, I think maybe Crystal's like a swim coach or something like that,

TREY:

...just with it hanging...

CHELSEY:

She just has it already hanging around her throat.

CHELSEY:

She's like, this is ridiculous.

CHELSEY:

I don't know.

CHELSEY:

I also think.

CHELSEY:

Uh, for future, we need to have some sort of a sound cue.

CHELSEY:

Whenever anyone says, if they called the manager or tried to speak to the manager,

TREY:

I like that.

TREY:

A Karen, like, um,

CHELSEY:

yeah, because she, because crystal made sure that we knew that she tried

CHELSEY:

How did she know his name was Michael, unless you just called and was like, I

TREY:

That's a good question.

TREY:

I did notice on 12/30 and 12/31.

TREY:

Girl, why are you calling to speak to a manager on New Year's Eve?

CHELSEY:

They're busy.

TREY:

That Manager is not going to answer you.

TREY:

They shut down the subway stations on New Year's at like eight in the morning.

TREY:

Like.

CHELSEY:

I know, also like...

TREY:

...he's not answering to hear your complaint.

CHELSEY:

It's really busy in the City during this time, because Crystal, you're

CHELSEY:

Like it is busy.

CHELSEY:

If it was taking a half an hour for you to get your entrees, it was probably

TREY:

Correct.

TREY:

Well, you know, to be fair, the not writing the things down, that's a problem.

TREY:

The length of time is a problem.

TREY:

If they had written everything down, I think they would have remembered they ordered beer.

TREY:

They would have remembered all this stuff.

CHELSEY:

Agreed.

TREY:

Like I like that is a problem.

TREY:

And so that's valuable to me that you know, it's possible, like, my experience as a

TREY:

So if you're going here and it's that busy and you're without your server for

TREY:

No.

TREY:

It's probably indicative of like what a common experience it's going

CHELSEY:

Oh, yeah.

CHELSEY:

I mean, like we're not getting 5 star white glove service at the Olive Garden let's be clear.

CHELSEY:

We're in Times Square, the service, I'm positive was sub-par I'm not doing any question

CHELSEY:

I'm I think a lot of people going to this Olive Garden location, we'll probably

CHELSEY:

Cause I'm sure the turnaround is pretty significant.

TREY:

Do you know, owns Olive Garden?

CHELSEY:

No, who?

TREY:

I don't ...I just remember in college there, I had friends that worked for Outback

TREY:

You had to do a math test and you had to pass like three interviews.

TREY:

I'm wondering if it's the same organization.

CHELSEY:

I had a friend that worked at Olive Garden.

CHELSEY:

Not that location.

CHELSEY:

I think like the 34th street, there's another location of Olive Garden.

CHELSEY:

And she had like a packet, like she had a memorize a lot.

TREY:

That's what I'm wondering.

TREY:

Like I w I actually don't think it's.

TREY:

Like, I don't think our judgment is about what it takes to be a server at Olive Garden.

TREY:

These sort of, even though they're not fine dining restaurants, they're chain restaurants.

TREY:

They like, you can't just get hired off the street

CHELSEY:

I guess my thing is more, I'm sure that Kashaya is just like beat to the

TREY:

That is a hard location.

CHELSEY:

That is a hard job.

TREY:

but you could make the job easier by writing everything down.

CHELSEY:

It's true.

CHELSEY:

I also, I mean, I don't think it's a policy at Olive Garden, but my sister was a waitress

TREY:

Yeah.

TREY:

That's like a thing too.

TREY:

And I just, just in this whole conversation, I'm not being judgemental of service workers.

TREY:

Your sister is a lawyer, so

CHELSEY:

Yes!

TREY:

So, a Lawyer.

TREY:

was a waiter.

TREY:

So like,

CHELSEY:

For many years.

CHELSEY:

Yes.

CHELSEY:

No, totally.

CHELSEY:

I'm not.

CHELSEY:

I'm always going to be on the side of the server,

TREY:

Amen!

CHELSEY:

So that's, that's just going to be my bias right there.

CHELSEY:

And I'm sure that when I say that it's a revolving door and people leave.

CHELSEY:

I think it's just because they're beat up.

CHELSEY:

It's it's a hard job.

CHELSEY:

I mean, I had a friend that worked at Bubba Gump in Times Square, "run Forest, run" "stop Forest.

CHELSEY:

Stop."

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

TREY:

It's just an outrageous volume of patrons.

CHELSEY:

Yeah, just people all day tourists, like people that don't tip, like just the worst.

CHELSEY:

That's why they do the 18% tip included.

CHELSEY:

I...

TREY:

I had a question about that because I do, they do that on a four top.

CHELSEY:

I think that they do, they do in Times Square in general, because there's

CHELSEY:

I mean, just a lot of people don't tip and it's really hard to work there.

CHELSEY:

Things are more expensive in Times Square.

CHELSEY:

I'm sorry, but they just are, you know, you're going to go to an Olive Garden in Times Square.

CHELSEY:

I don't think you should be shocked that they include an 18% tip.

TREY:

And I think that Crystal was fair about that at the beginning.

TREY:

Like the kids wanted to go.

TREY:

So they went, do you think that Crystal is being truthful here?

TREY:

Do you think that they're like a dis-?

TREY:

I don't think she's, a disgruntled former employee.

TREY:

Okay.

CHELSEY:

I don't think she's I think she's being absolutely truthful.

CHELSEY:

I think she takes her position as an elite Yelper reviewer.

CHELSEY:

Very, very seriously.

TREY:

Just like we take our self-appointed Review Queen position.

TREY:

Very seriously.

TREY:

So does Crystal.

CHELSEY:

Yeah, I believe that Crystal's being authentic in her,

CHELSEY:

She gives me a little bit of Karen Dar.

TREY:

Yes.

TREY:

Yes.

TREY:

The having posted 400 plus images on Yelp is a little Kareny, but

TREY:

you know, that's

TREY:

our business too.

TREY:

So.

TREY:

I was saying it's completely humorless.

TREY:

There was like, there wasn't any fun I mean, I was entertained about like Alfredo Boat.

CHELSEY:

Yes.

CHELSEY:

Okay.

TREY:

now I'm, I'm recognizing how you felt about the Valley of the Dolls.

TREY:

Like it is sort of nice to at least have a little bit of levity.

CHELSEY:

Yeah.

CHELSEY:

Do we feel like we have enough information to take this to the rating?

TREY:

I do, yeah.

TREY:

Let's crown it.

VOICEOVER:

The Queens are Tabulating!

TREY:

You ready to show.

CHELSEY:

I think I'm ready.

CHELSEY:

Yes.

TREY:

Okay Okay me too.

VOICEOVER:

Total Score!

TREY:

Tie!

CHELSEY:

Unanimous decision!

CHELSEY:

Okay, We both did three crowns.

CHELSEY:

I did three crowns because I took a couple of crowns away, one for the Karen

CHELSEY:

I gave the three crowns because I thought that they were being truthful to their experience.

CHELSEY:

And I think it's probably typical of what you can expect if you are going

CHELSEY:

So for that reason, I decided to give Crystal three crowns.

CHELSEY:

How about you?

TREY:

yeah, I said three because it just feels very run of the

TREY:

Very like, Yes.

TREY:

I feel like.

TREY:

You know, this is what you're going get when you go to the Olive Garden in Times Square.

TREY:

And I believed her, I believe this experience happened.

TREY:

There's a couple of grammar things, whatever, not really humorous or, but you know,

TREY:

so the impact there wasn't much of a deal.

TREY:

There's no deal breaker.

TREY:

I mean, this is exactly like what I would expect.

TREY:

So for those reasons I just gave it, three middle of the road.

CHELSEY:

Yes.

CHELSEY:

Completely agree.

TREY:

Excellent.

CHELSEY:

Wow.

CHELSEY:

I feel like we learned a lot of things today.

TREY:

Me too.

TREY:

What did you learn, Chels-Chels?

CHELSEY:

I learned that people have strong opinions about things and they're not

CHELSEY:

Like I think that the Leverne Cox thing really threw me, I need to really try

TREY:

oh, that's like, so like self-deprecating I feel like you're a great, Review Queen.

TREY:

but.

TREY:

I really, I also, similarly I learned about my own personal biases here.

TREY:

Like I it's trying to like navigate both sides of the coin.

TREY:

You know, I also learned that if I'm going to Rite-Aid and there's a 50% off toy, maybe

TREY:

and I same conversation of the two sides of the coin, you know, when

TREY:

Over like drilling in your head of a jingle, the negativity of that.

TREY:

It's also the positivity, because here we are and we can sing Rice-A-Roni.

CHELSEY:

Right.

CHELSEY:

As we reach the end of today's episode.

CHELSEY:

Have you got any personal reviews for your week?

CHELSEY:

Where are you inducting for...

VOICEOVER:

My Royal Highness

TREY:

That's a great question.

TREY:

I had a lot of time when I was traveling to really notice what it takes to be working in

TREY:

Know, some places aren't open and some places are.

TREY:

And, um, the specific airport I flew into for my sister had a shortage of TSA

TREY:

So I am going to induct these TSA agents who are working through this pandemic where

TREY:

More people are getting vaccinated and, but they're still like there.

TREY:

so to me, I think five stars.

TREY:

Five crowns are more than deserved for these TSA agents.

CHELSEY:

That's so crazy because I also was just on a plane.

CHELSEY:

And so I was going to give My Royal Highness of this week.

CHELSEY:

I swear.

CHELSEY:

I wrote it down, to the flight attendant on my flight coming back from Newark

CHELSEY:

I was bumped up to first class, which I was very excited about.

CHELSEY:

and there was a guy sitting next to me and he just had the worst stink face on.

CHELSEY:

And he was really annoyed that there were crumbs on his seat and he was throwing like, I

CHELSEY:

And she pacified the experience, which made my experience better.

CHELSEY:

So I was just really grateful because in that moment, I just thought, wow, like you

CHELSEY:

They're, you know, they're showing up for us and they have to put up

CHELSEY:

And she's still had a smile on her face.

CHELSEY:

And I wish I could remember her name because I'd reference her directly, but she was lovely.

CHELSEY:

And.

CHELSEY:

She was wearing heels.

TREY:

Uh You better work, lady flight attendant in heels.

CHELSEY:

I mean, my God

TREY:

Before we go, do we have time for one Royal review?

CHELSEY:

I feel like we can make time for that.

CHELSEY:

Yeah,

TREY:

Okay, good.

TREY:

So every so often we'd like to feature one of our very own reviews from listeners.

TREY:

Like you.

CHELSEY:

That's right.

CHELSEY:
