Hi, everyone. Well, thank you so much for being here today. Chandler and I, Chandler sitting right next to me, say hello. Hello. We have decided that we are going to give ourselves on the week of Thanksgiving and the week of Christmas a little moment to not be putting out a new episode, but instead to be delighting you with a top episode of our almost 400 plus episodes.
There's quite a catalog and we need to resurface some of our best work. We absolutely do. And for the four years we've been doing the show, almost five, we were like, we never don't put out a new episode. And one of the things we've noticed is that barely anyone's listening to podcasts on these weeks. Yeah. It's really not something where like everyone's listening anyway.
And so everyone's just with their families enjoying the holidays. We're just going to give ourselves the grace to do that as well. We back next week with a brand new, fresh, free episode of Pop Apologists. There will always be an episode on our premium content. If you are dying for our fresh takes. We are chatting all about Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Orange County.
Donna Kelsey starring in not one, but two Hallmark movies. Ballerina Farm inviting the New York Times into her home. I mean, to be honest, the premium episode this week is very charged. We have a lot to say. So if you are dying for more content, it's always there. Enjoy this episode that we're bringing back from the archives. Yes. Love you guys. Love you.
There's a TikTok going around which is a clip of David Foster and Catherine McPhee. They're at some sort of concert hall doing a singing event or whatever and they show her at American Idol and she kind of like makes a reference to her body at that time. She's like, I was a lot chubbier then or I was chubby then and David Foster goes, you were fat. He literally says, you were fat. Yes, yes.
This is a long awaited day Chandler, this deep dive we're about to embark on together. Yes, Lauren, this is a long awaited, highly contested, demanded deep dive. And I think actually deep dive is the wrong classification. What you have joined me in today and what you're going to witness is actually the trial of David Foster. Except we didn't bring a jury. We just brought an executioner.
There will be no two sides of this argument. Yeah. So yeah. And I also am just going to start off this by saying that I attempted to rewatch the David Foster off the record documentary that we watched years ago. And that's what really turned us on to how terrible he is. So true. And I couldn't even get through it. I was just planning on having it in the background while I was working.
And I could not listen to that man for one more minute. And I had to turn it off. So yeah. I feel like just in our own defense, because this feels like such a, like, why are we doing this? Like, why are we doing a deep dive on David Foster? He's just a music producer.
I do feel like the culture has foisted David Foster and his personality and his personal life onto us, like in the form of him being on various reality shows, in the form of his documentary on Netflix.
