What up, y'all?
What up? Ch-ch-ch-changes.

I mean, he is the ultimate pitcher, but he does love to corner you. Would he do this for you guys during the course of the show? Totally. Like you'd see him at an event or something, he'd be like, oh, wait.
Here's the thing.
Exactly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He'd come up to you and he's like, so check this out. What do you think, how do you think Ronald feel about being gay? And I'd be like, huh?

Chapter 5: What insights do the hosts share about body image and pressure?
Shirtless scene, yeah.
But it's, yeah, it can get in your head. I think Mandy Moore is the only person that has it got figured out because she just climbs mountains.
She's a beast. I don't climb. I have not climbed mountains in years. I would love to get back to that. You climbed a mountain since you've been a mama? One.

Personally. Right. But I do understand that, yeah, the pressure is undeniable.

There's candles in the shower. Yeah, but this is NBC, not Hulu. I will say the one thing that I do think about if I'm going to be showing a little bit of skin is a tan.
Okay.
We all look good with a little color.
That's something I think about. I hear you.
Listen, when you're pasty pale like me. Come on, Orlando. You ain't pasty. I'm pasty. I'm pasty. I'm sun damaged. It's December.
