TRANSCRIPT 🔗
00:00:00
Speaker 1: On with Mario Lopez.
00:00:04
Speaker 2: Here we go Finally Friday, Mario Lopez all fired up to be back behind the mic a few fun hours of radio plan after Sam Yeger joining us later to talk sixth and final season of The Handmaid's Stale, plus latest buzz, another passion, fake debate, and just a few songs away from breaking down ed Shearon's latest single, and your Mario Music Minute.
00:00:23
Speaker 3: So turn it up.
00:00:24
Speaker 2: You're on with Mario and Courtney Lopez. Mario Lopez no secret that ideas get stolen in Hollywood all the time, but apparently some of our favorite shows might be blatant ripoffs of other shows and we just didn't know. Frazer, what are something?
00:00:38
Speaker 4: Yeah? So I found this list Creek. They say basically is a knockoff of Arrested Development because it's a wealthy family who lost all their money and they're trying to fight their way back to the top.
00:00:49
Speaker 2: I've heard a theory that there's only really seven original ideas and everything is a derivative from one of those seven original ideas.
00:00:59
Speaker 4: Haven't dug into that theory, but I don't doubt that theory. It seems about right. The Jetson's basically a futuristic ripoff of the Flintstones.
00:01:07
Speaker 2: That's exactly what it is, but but not really rip off because one went backwards, one went forward, right, That's not if you were to do a new show called the the Crudes. Yeah, if you do a show called The Cruise flint Stone, which is the Flintstones and put it as a series, then yes, that's a direct rip off.
00:01:24
Speaker 4: Jabber Jaw was a ripoff of Scooby Doo and it was a shark and his friends solving mysteries.
00:01:31
Speaker 2: The shark is okay, they went underwater with it.
00:01:33
Speaker 4: Friends was a ripoff of Living Single.
00:01:35
Speaker 2: Yes, that that has been discussed tirelessly.
00:01:38
Speaker 4: I Dream of Genie. What do you think that was a ripoff off Bewitched?
00:01:42
Speaker 2: Yes, Bewitched because they read yes, I was thinking, oh, took me.
00:01:45
Speaker 4: A minute, step by step essentially, the Brady Bunch correct Another theory, by the way, to go back to the Flintstones and the Jetsons, there's a theory they existed at the same time, and that the Flintstones were in the the reboot of Earth after it had been destroyed, and the Jetsons were living in the sky above, which is how they met in that one crossover movie.
00:02:03
Speaker 3: That that's too deep for me.
00:02:05
Speaker 4: And finally, family Guy. People are saying that is a blatant rip off of the Simpsons.
00:02:10
Speaker 2: Well look, other than animation, I think there are some pretty starry differences family dynamic.
00:02:15
Speaker 4: There's a dog, the other sister baby Right, Like I.
00:02:18
Speaker 2: Said, there's only seven original ideas more Mario Lopez coming.
00:02:22
Speaker 3: Up, Mario Courtney Lopez, was some quick buzz for you.
00:02:26
Speaker 2: Season two of Wednesday has added some major star power of the cast. Steve Buchmy word is he is Jenn Ortiga's new principle.
00:02:35
Speaker 3: We just saw him on an episode of kurbyr Enthusias.
00:02:37
Speaker 5: Yes we did when season one debuted in twenty twenty two. It's smashed streaming record, so good for Steve BUSHEMI shemmy.
00:02:48
Speaker 3: You all.
00:02:48
Speaker 2: Mario Courtney Lopez reminding you of the best way to never miss any of our radio fun is to download our free iHeartRadio app listening to the show, which is now streaming twenty four seven, along with a bunch of your favorite music on our new on with Mark Lopes station. Yes, just search on Mariy Lopez for that music. Rolls on or Cordy Lopez, you're quickly squeezing in a random question which you got.
00:03:11
Speaker 5: Honey, would you rather be granted one wish now or three wishes in ten years?
00:03:17
Speaker 2: That is a fascinating question.
00:03:20
Speaker 1: Really good.
00:03:22
Speaker 2: I'm going one wish now. Really, I'm always burd in hand. You never know what the future may hold, that's true, And who knows if even God forbid not to be a bummer going to be around in ten years, Because I.
00:03:33
Speaker 5: Would say three wishes in ten years, because there's really nothing I would change. I mean, obviously I want to see people that are no longer here and that kind of stuff, But I don't know. I would kind of save it.
00:03:44
Speaker 2: You would save it.
00:03:45
Speaker 3: I would save it.
00:03:46
Speaker 2: I would, Well, there's something, I mean, I feel fortunate. There's nothing we necessarily have to have or need, but there's I think, you know, maybe one thing that can kind of because the one thing can compliment things ten years down the road.
00:03:57
Speaker 5: Actually, I know what I would do right now.
00:03:59
Speaker 2: Oh, Okay, that's enough. That sounds like an off the air request.
00:04:03
Speaker 5: No, I'll say it right here. Just have you stop calling me Cordo.
00:04:09
Speaker 2: Okay, Cardo, that's funny, all Mario Lopez gonna play a few more songs and then fire up zoom so we can chat with actress Sam Jeger. Sam is part of The Handmaid's Tale over on Hulu's sixth and final season.
00:04:23
Speaker 3: Just kicked off.
00:04:24
Speaker 2: Back to talk about that and more with Sam.
00:04:25
Speaker 4: Next, that's off.
00:04:28
Speaker 3: You're on Mario Lopez jointing me right now.
00:04:30
Speaker 2: One of the stars of the Emmy winning show The Handmaid's Tale on Hulu, actress Sam Yeager.
00:04:35
Speaker 3: How you doing, Sam good Man?
00:04:37
Speaker 6: Good to do with your thanks, well.
00:04:38
Speaker 2: Thanks for taking the time, and we are in the sixth and final season of the show, which just premiered on Hulu. Man, I remember the first season, y'all took nice little long hiatuses in between these these a slow show.
00:04:52
Speaker 6: In fact, coming from a different show, I hopped on this and I was kind of sterled at how slow the whole
Load full transcript
process is. You know, shoot like four four pages a day, and I was used to just being like, hey, let's bang these scenes out. Yeah, But I think there's a reason for it. You know, people like you know, there's a lot of thought put into what it looks like to how even the images you know, helped to show how confined and restricted. A lot of the characters are. So there is a method to the incredibly slow, methodical madness.
00:05:23
Speaker 2: We got to wait for quality, I imagine. All right, Sam hank Tag, I'm going to take a quick break and come back with some more Sam Yeger.
00:05:28
Speaker 1: More fun on the Way On with Mario Lopez.
00:05:32
Speaker 2: All Mario Lopez getting the scoop on the sixth and final season of The Handmaid's Tail from actors Sam Yeger. So, Sam, where's this new season pick up and what's your character up to?
00:05:42
Speaker 6: You know, Handmaid's Tale is about Gilead taking over most of North America and at this point there's only two states in the United States left, Hawaii and Alaska, and even the Canadians at the start of this season they don't want Americans in their country anymore, pushing them out, and you know, we get to see kind of all these characters who have been losing the battle just kind of fight back in whatever way they can, and desperate times call for desperate measures, and it's a It's pretty cool because you know, a lot of a lot of shows like this, they get to the end of the series, and there are shows that are famous. I'm not going to mention what they are, but there are a couple of shows famous for not sticking the landing. Yeah, you know, we're leaving audiences hanging lost, and I'm glad to see yes, maybe possibly.
00:06:34
Speaker 2: Game of Thrones.
00:06:35
Speaker 6: Maybe Game of Thrones, you know, and there we certainly didn't want that. So we wanted to make sure we ended this series on a high and thankfully the scripts were amazing and I have a feeling the end it's gonna be really satisfying for people watching.
00:06:48
Speaker 2: Nice all right, Well, new episodes of The Handmaid's Tale are streaming now on Hulu. Sam Haig type, few more songs and we're gonna have more with Sam Dieger getting back to actress Sam Jeger from The Handmaid's Tale.
00:07:01
Speaker 3: What a mar Lopez here?
00:07:02
Speaker 2: Sam? Obviously with me in the final season.
00:07:05
Speaker 3: It's always tough to say.
00:07:07
Speaker 2: Goodbye after after a long run like this. What was the final day on setlite?
00:07:12
Speaker 6: Cold? So cold? I mean we've shot this show in Toronto in the dead of winter for seasons, and so we wrapped at two in the morning in you know, like perfect Candmaid's Tale, Like we're on some like dirt road in the middle of a forest, with these crew that are freezing their butts off, and so the goodbye was brief and yeah, but I just said, you know, I love you guys. I love working with you, and I hope I get to do it again, because it's rare to work on the show that you feel proud of, and then you get to work with people who we're all in line. They're trying to tell the best story and get their egos out of the way.
00:07:51
Speaker 2: I know exactly what you mean, Sam, regarding cold and saying goodbye. I was just in Buffalo for about a month is not too far from trying to soak. Yeah, exactly why those exterior shots man, And I's just the noses running. I can't even I'm not better. Just it was a hot mess or cold painful. It's exactly what it is.
00:08:09
Speaker 4: It is painful.
00:08:11
Speaker 2: That cold is next level, all right, man, hang on, little more music, then we're gonna come back with some more Sam yeg you're all Mario Lopez got actress Sam Dieger from The Handmaid stale on Zoom with us this hour. And you also just had a movie come out, Wolfman, a reboot of the iconic Universal film back in the day for people who don't know the story. I've always loved Wolfman stories. Here, what's what's the premise of this film.
00:08:36
Speaker 6: The premise of this film is this, you know, this story of a guy who comes back to the farm. He grew up on. His father was you know, ex military and really you know, hard on him and trying to teach him to survive on his own because he knew that there was something out in the woods there that was you know, that could kill you easily. And so his son returns to the land to try and you know, uh see what it's like and immediately realizes that he's that whatever was out there is is still out there. And we got to shoot it in New Zealand, which was epic. Who was stunning and uh, you know it was it was a beautiful shoot to do. I mean, I don't know if you've ever been in New Zealand, but I highly recommend.
00:09:22
Speaker 1: No.
00:09:22
Speaker 2: I heard it's incredible. Oh that's nice during during the summertime or winter.
00:09:25

Speaker 3: Yeah good. Oh that must be uh, that must be uh.
00:10:04
Speaker 2: That house must be a mess.
00:10:07
Speaker 6: Absolutely a mess. This is the only televisable portion of the whole house. I found this tiny little corner I could shove myself into.
00:10:15
Speaker 3: I got three myself.
00:10:17
Speaker 6: The rest of it, it's legos and baseball and baseball bats all over the house.

00:10:51
Speaker 7: Take care. Amar Courtney Lopez and I saw this and thought it was cool.
00:11:09
Speaker 2: Uber stepping up this prom season by offering teens two free rides up to twenty dollars each to get to and from their big nights safely. Teens ages thirteen to seventeen with an Uber teen account can book rides now and even reserve a larger Uber xl for groups of up to six people plus. After dancing the night away, they can snag twenty dollars off of post prom Uber Eats snack order.
00:11:31
Speaker 3: This is awesome. Yeah incentive.
00:11:34
Speaker 2: Parents, I'm sure are really excited. I mean, listen, teens aren't supposed to be drinking at those ages anyway, but you know, kids will be kids. It's better to err on the side of safety and parents don't have to be show from around.
00:11:47
Speaker 3: So I like this. I'mamar Courtney Lopez. Echin closer and closer to summer, which means.
00:11:54
Speaker 2: Vacations if you're lucky enough to get them, and if you're flying there are apparently rules of etiquette are Reddit recently ask users to share the rules all passengers should know in nearly three thousand have come in so far, Like what.
00:12:07
Speaker 5: Honey, Well, most of them are common sense, but we know people don't have common sense. Some of the most named ones include, don't put your feet up on the arm rest of the person in front of you. It's not your seat.
00:12:21
Speaker 2: Correct and listen if you're behind someone, and maybe the back portion of it. But you can't go full extension into the arm rest.
00:12:30
Speaker 4: If you find yourself putting an arm or a foot through the seats in front of you can't go through. You are doing it wrong, exactly.
00:12:37
Speaker 5: Keep your shoes on.
00:12:38
Speaker 2: Lopez, Well, I've been putting them on now when I use the restroom, I've been putting them on.
00:12:44
Speaker 5: So yes, I take my shoes off on long flights when I go to sleep, but I have socks on right now.
00:12:52
Speaker 6: I don't.
00:12:52
Speaker 5: I'm not barefoot. Absolutely obviously, be kind to the flight attendants and listen to the instructions.
00:12:59
Speaker 2: Yeah, come on, you can't, there's no there's never any reason to be rude.
00:13:02
Speaker 5: And don't clip your toenails or fingernails.
00:13:07
Speaker 2: Come on that just you gotta throw them off the plane at that point.
00:13:10
Speaker 4: If you're doing that, You're doing it wrong.
00:13:12
Speaker 5: I've seen that on the subway.
00:13:14
Speaker 4: That makes more sense to me.

00:16:12
Speaker 5: Plus the fake debate is just a few songs away as well, and maybe we'll try to squeeze into a couple of requests from you. So if you got a song you want to hear, just slide into our DMS over on Instagram add on with Mario Lopez.
00:16:24
Speaker 3: John Mario, Courtney Lopez.
00:16:26
Speaker 2: Time not for a fake debate where the topics are made upon the spot, but the passion is very real.
00:16:30
Speaker 3: Who's pro and who's con?
00:16:31
Speaker 1: Today?
00:16:32
Speaker 4: What do you want to be? Courtney con?
00:16:34
Speaker 5: I think that was pro? Last time?
00:16:35
Speaker 4: You will be con. Mario will be pro. You'll have fifteen seconds make your case, ten second rebuttal. Your topic today is singing along to songs in public without actually knowing the lyrics. Just like this, get.
00:16:51
Speaker 5: What is that?
00:16:53
Speaker 1: Me?
00:16:53
Speaker 7: Yes?
00:16:53
Speaker 6: Oh my God?
00:16:55
Speaker 2: Singing along in public without knowing the lyrics to the song? I am pro. Here's the thing about music, It's all subjective. It's artistic. If you want to change the lyrics up and it inspires you to create your own lyrics. That was the intention of the artist. That means it's a hit. Congrats recordy.
00:17:15
Speaker 5: Nothing is more embarrassing than parents of a teenager who think they know the lyrics to a song but don't. And the last thing I want to do is embarrass my daughter and have her disown me.
00:17:28
Speaker 4: I don't believe the last thing you want to do is embarrass your daughter, mister Lopez.
00:17:32
Speaker 2: The thing about lyrics is these songs, if it motivates you to make the lyrics your own, yourself are now an artist. You are creating the music, and that's what it's all about. Inspiring people. Thank you.
00:17:47
Speaker 5: You know the game. Finish the lyrics. You need to finish the lyrics and not make up your own. They will not give you any props.
00:17:54
