What did their Spotify Wrappeds look like?

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the final season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. The end's not near, it's here!! Disaster strikes in Newport as a natural disaster provides some shake ups, both physically and relationally. Did Julie and Caitlin *really* not see what that dork was playing at? What aura in Sandy makes it so strangers and security guards defer to his crisis management direction? Despite nothing Seth attempted making any sense, who among us didn't shed a tear when he and Ryan became blood brothers? Was Crab Philo Mushroom Crescent dude the same character? Why did no one recognize him? Was Hanoi Bullit's OB son? Whose happy ending was your favorite?    Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the final season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. This week we begin to enter the nostalgia era of the show, paying fan service to those of us who have stuck around from the beginning and starts to tie up loose ends. Who among us would have tuned in for a full Schmidt as Sandy spin off prequel? Why is Ryan so invested in making it work with Julie and his Dad? Despite Bullit clearly being the best father figure Caitlin has ever had, why can't Julie commit? Why hasn't Seth found a true passion the way Summer has? Is clown porn a real thing?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the final season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Which classic scene had more erotic undertones, Top Gun volleyball or Seth and Che taking on the wilderness? Why did Julie and Spencer get wrapped into a formal prostitution ring when one off the record would have been so much easier and more sustainable? Which band uniform appearance had more pizzazz, Will Tutt's fan club or Summer's extra curricular run? The groundhog classic mix up—was it an adorable wrap up to give Che a happy ending, or too messy to even really follow?    Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the final season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Was Chris Brown stunt casting, or was his acting career still potentially up and coming at this point in time? Can we justify Frank's lie? Or Sandy's tough guy act? Was Ryan's reaction to Taylor's book problematic in that she was exposed to the world and he umm…made it about himself? Did Holly drop out of high school and get married years ago, or was she older than the rest of the crew this whole time despite being at their same cotillion? Did Seth go to Seattle intending on blowing up the engagement? What did all of Caitlin's woofing translate to?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the final season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. It's FINALLY here, the episode that Ryan has been patiently editing Chelsea and Dylan's musings for three seasons to finally get to. In alt-world does Jimmy know about Kirsten's shmishmortion? Was Che's role actually intended for a Luke reprisal? Is Summer net happier as an evolved human or would a stunted simple life left her more peaceful? Did the alien woman steal Summer's purse out of revenge or because she was likely on a hallucinogen? How long in the episode was it before Dylan figured out who Frank truly was?    Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the final season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. When did Taylor have time to learn about sleep theory? Did she employ these tricks with the Hot Dean? What was Dylan's first impression of hall of fame character The Bullit? Are we surprised by Che's betrayal, or was this just to be expected from a scrub like Chris Pratt? Was Summer self-sabotaging or do we think she was earnestly surprised by this escalation? Why on earth would Julie and Spencer structure their scheme in the clearly sketch manner that they did?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the final season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Do we agree with Sandy that this is the worst thing Julie has ever done, or do we think they all just magically forgot about framing Ryan for shooting Trey? Why have we been deprived of Kirsten/Taylor content for so long? The gathering of the unhoused at the Cohens—would that storyline fly today? Are Ryan and Julie friends now? How impressed are we all about Good Seth? Who would you rather go clubbing with, Julie or Caitlin?    Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the final season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Did Tyler Durden inspire Ryan's new career path? Do most bars have a weird apartment in them? Are they positioning Che as a potential love interest or is he just a symbol of who Summer could become? Is Dr. Roberts a villain in this situation? Are Julie's actions forgivable? Has Seth (gulp) actually grown as a person over summer break? Is Che or real life Chris Pratt more annoying?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the third season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. So we see that Seth only made mild steps forward in his journey to being half the man Summer deserves, and Ryan is still easily swayed by featherlight threats from Volchok. Is that house Ryan burned down still without an owner? Does the Newport Group still own it? Did Julie and Marissa's moment of bonding lose its punch considering how the episode ends? What's Sandy's new course of life going to look like? Do we think Marissa *needed* to die in order to write her off? Could she have gone away more peacefully, or did this feel cheap and dramatic? Also, did Taylor crush that commencement speech or what??   PS, stay tuned til the very end for *quite* the reveal!!   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the third season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Everybody loves a great prom story, what's yours? Who did not leave the night with a memory they'll cherish fondly forever was any of the Core 4. Why didn't Anna explain herself better when she visited Summer's house? Is Volchok the same age as Marissa or is he a creeper in his 20s at prom? How far is Schwartz gonna let this whole Sandy breaking bad storyline carry on? Where has Taryn the great been these past 2 seasons and can we get more of her in the final? And right when it feels like Seth's turning a corner, the devil's lettuce gotta go make him torch a building? Does Sandy's change for good lose its weight since he was backed in a corner to get to this point? Chaos, friends.   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the third season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Is Sandy becoming Caleb 2.0 with all the Newport Group nonsense? Why is Ryan being so weird about Dawn coming to graduation? What's the deal with this baby that 100% looks like Ryan? Are we upset or indifferent about seeing Anna again? How insane is it that the guy from the Mummy ended up working for Brown?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the third season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. After all Seth has been through, how is he still such a jackass to his mom? Did Matt act unreasonably, or is he just working to preserve what was earned by him? Are Marissa and Volchok in a relationship, or are they just fun buddies? Why on earth would Ryan and Sadie think moving in together as jobless teenagers would be a good idea? After all Seth has been through, how is he still such a jackass to Summer?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into the third season of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. What about Cousin drew Ryan to her so strongly? Is Marissa primarily sad about her breakup with Ryan, or does her turmoil mostly stem from losing Johnny? Why didn't Volchok sell the Cartier watch? Does Volchok want to get back at Ryan or is he earnestly interested in Marissa? Is Sandy really not going to take any responsibility for the predicament that he put Matt in? Was Matt wrong to let Marissa stay at his apartment? Is he into Marissa too?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. We are now officially entering the Twilight era of The OC where none fewer than 3 smokin hot vampires grace us with their presence. Was the surfboard funeral thing an official ritual of surfers or just something the writers thought up? What about Sadie at the funeral drew Ryan to her so strongly? Did Ryan cross a line into cheating territory? Where has Julie hidden this fun and carefree part of herself all these years? Why is Matt so hesitant to go out with the future Mrs Mackenzie? Why is Volchok so gosh darn hot?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as the deep dive into the pilot episode of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Were the Coopers Sound of Music purists, or did the other works of Rodgers & Hammerstein tickle their fancy? Was Caitlin interested in Johnny *at all* or was he merely a tool in her wicked games? Hypothetically, would Sandy be upset with Seth for experimenting with the devil's lettuce or would he bond over the shared recreational hobby of his youth? How on earth did Johnny scale that cliff like a billy goat with a bottle of whiskey in his hand...and how was Ryan so easily able to run up the side of it?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as the deep dive into the pilot episode of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. How many times are we going to be put through the emotional roller coaster of whether Johnny's leg is broken or not? Was this campaign what piqued Summer's interest in activism? Is Taylor's mom delusional or just really really mean? How many years did they have to “age” Kaitlin for this storyline to work? How did all the boy band looking frat boys know where the Cohens lived?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. How much more apparent does Johnny need to make it to Marissa that he's super into her before she catches wind? Did Julie and Kirsten just discover a sustainable new business model? Is Ryan...actually drinking milk in a strip club? Is the Barmitzvukkah a little appropriation-y, or a lot? And geez why is Johnny still such a snore?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Ryan and Johnny are seeming now best bros and working as a team to rescue Marissa from Volchek who quite literally kidnaps her. Why didn't it occur to any of them to call the police, or at least call Sandy? Speaking of Sandy, his new Big Luke Energy business partner Matt gets trigger happy with firing, Julie tells Charlotte to go to hell in the most satisfying of ways, and Taylor continues doing what we love her for best (meddle only for it to be foiled by humiliation). The following episode is equally as fraught--who is Gus, and what drives him as a character? What even is the action sequence that led to Johnny's accident? How will Seth and Summer get over their opposite tastes in higher education?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Things are changing quickly in Newport Beach. Ryan considered a career as a sailor and we are uncertain if it was Johnny's secret plan to get rid of him or if he was just tryin' to be a bro. Seth and Summer unleash a plan that rivals only Oceans 13 in its level of convoludity. It's Matt Ramsey and Taylor Townsend season baby.    Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Was Dean Hess's face this punchable in Cruel Intentions, or is he just nailing the smarminess of this particular character? Does Harbor have enough of a student body to convincingly interpret South Pacific? Why the hell did the Coopers not invite their own daughter Caitlin to their wedding, and why the hell did the Nichols not invite Caleb's daughters Hailey or Lindsay to the reading of his will? Wouldn't it be reasonable to expect Charlotte to be better at the whole con artist thing if she has enough investment money to check into a fancy rehab? How hard did Tate break Dylan's heart?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Tensions are high in Newport as Trey's fate remains uncertain and Kirsten buddies up with a shady new friend at rehab. Has Tate returned only to break our (okay, Dylan's) heart? Did the dean like, intentionally want his hair to be the color of a Sun-In model? Is Sandy the most forgiving human on earth or does Julie just get a perma-pass for her wicked behavior? Also, we have two words for our fair listeners: TAYLOR. TOWNSEND.   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

It's 2003. You just pulled into your driveway after a long day of high school drama. Before you get out, the DJ comes on the radio to tell some off-color jokes as the music transitions from Crazy in Love into the remix to Ignition, hot and fresh out the kitchen. But you've got better things to do than sit in the car. You turn it off and go inside. You have some time to kill before the new episode of The OC, so you toss your backpack onto the couch, grab a tube of Pringles, and turn on MTV. All is right in the world. Everything is beautiful and nothing hurts.   Join Ryan, Chelsea, and Dylan as they take you back to an era when MTV reigned supreme in this special bonus episode of Keeping Up With The Cohens. You can find (almost) all the tunes mentioned in this episode in a special Spotify playlist curated by everyone's favorite DJ and Cohens co-host, Ryan Samantha Drake.   https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4qIZT7oXmTU7hIJJizAkWr?si=dB5BtQZaSp6Ufq-6-0_Vyw   The hippest Triumvirate since Caesar, Pompey, and Crassus will return for season three on August 18, 2021 to give you the BEST coverage of the WORST season of the OC.   And now you know why Ryan and Chelsea don't let me write episode descriptions during the main seasons.   xoxo, Dylan

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. How does Seth and all of his flaws still possess the moxie to make Chelsea and Dylan swoon at his description of high school prom? Was George Lucas a fan of The OC or did he just dig the movement to make nerdism mainstream? Did the kids have to tell Ryan or should they have gotten Sandy involved first? Are we gonna lose another star in our rating due to Dylan's George Lucas imitation? Where are we?

Trigger warning: episode deals with sexual assault and trauma.    Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Did producers bring in psychologists to help them recreate such a realistic picture of an attack and the aftermath? Speaking of assault, pretty sure what Julie pulled qualifies. How much of Kirsten's connection to Carter was romantic vs just a supportive friend who deeply listened and cared? Did she want Sandy to catch her (not very bloody) Mary?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. How did all of those randos find out about Marissa’s party? What on earth kinda daddy issues and trauma did Jess suffer from to turn out the way she did? Since when was the DA cool with letting people set up their own stings? How were Jess and her boyfriend stupid enough to sell drugs to someone whose house they had just gotten in trouble at?

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Let’s talk about Trey, baby. How justified was Ryan for his initial hostility towards Trey? Did Marissa and Sandy intervene too much? Do we think Trey actually stole the watch? Who on earth would just give away a piece of pop culture history as iconic as the crystal egg? Where on earth did Seth suddenly gain the athletic prowess needed to cradle a highly breakable item from smashing into an asphalt surface?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Is anyone else feeling a strong sense of deja vu? At what point did Julie decide Kirsten was a trusted friend and companion and not a hostile frenemy? How did Caleb *not* realize the shitstorm he was causing by demanding an 11th hour paternity test? Are we to believe Rebecca just vanished into the woods on foot? Is she actually gone or is this one of her 5,754 fake outs?

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. What is it about this episode run that feels so...familiar? Is Caleb actually still salty about the model home, or is he just trying to distract from his villainous 16 year absence? At what moment did Marissa realize her feelings for Alex intensified? Who on earth gives 16 year olds an official pitch meeting? When was the last time you had a good nose grazing session? When will Rebecca GTFO already?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC.

What role does Zac really play when it comes to Atomic County--are his business plays better than that of the publishing house? Why did Jody and Alex break up in the first place?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Who is the “Gardner” that’s Lindsay’s namesake, and how sure are we that it isn’t DJ? What’s with Alex’s tee shirt and scarf combination? Was Tate’s departure justified or just childish? How much would Luke have LOVED the Bait Shop? Why on earth would Tate tell Kirsten that he’s cheating with her father’s wife?!?!   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. The weather in Newport is getting "colder" as the Chrismukkah season approaches, but with its bite comes new drama. Who will invite whom to the OC Yule Ball? Based on Ryan and Dylan's boxing experience, how would they rate Zac's punch? Is the yamaclaus cute or kitschy? Is a Death-Cab-inspired Chrismukkah carol a bad idea or the worst idea?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Newport is brimming with new faces and new love interests for the Core 4. Why did we hate Lindsay as teens but love her as 30somethings? Is Zac charming or cheesy? Are we really supposed to believe that Harry Style’s girlfriend is supposed to play a 17 year old? Why is this the first time we’re meeting funny Caleb?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Why was Sandy so lax on Seth being a total brat? Was Ryan feeling regretful or forlorned after making his decision to go to Chino with Teresa? Was Marissa’s scream Tarzan-esque, or did it have more of a Cartman aesthetic? Is Zac annoyingly perfect or perfectly annoying? What would three more seasons of Luke have looked like?   Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Without question, one of the highlights of being in the know with The OC were their varies mix tape albums released over the course of the series. Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they reminisce about their favorite songs they bumped in their first cars, driving to high school and trying to make out with their 16 year old crushes. Was Mix 1 or Mix 2 stronger? What bands did The OC lead you to discover? Who was the genius behind choosing the songs? Why did Seth have a Ben Folds poster in his room but no Ben Folds songs ever made the soundtrack cut?   Reach us at cohenspod@gmail.com Instagram @cohenspod   Find the gang: Twitter at @Rayke, @dylnrwn, and @triniwoodstock Instagram at @rayked, @dylnrwn, and @triniwoodstock   Leave us a review and mash that subscribe button.

Join Dylan, Ryan, and Chelsea as they do a deep dive into the enigma that is Seth Cohen, and the markedly different perception of him we all had as experiencing him 30somethings than we did as teens. Did Seth embody the true "nerd" archetype, or was he more of a misanthrope who happened to have nerdy hobbies? Why was he so attached to Ryan? Did his early dating decisions come from cowardice, inexperience, or convenience? Did he ever really deserve Summer?   Reach us at cohenspod@gmail.com Instagram @cohenspod   Find the gang: Twitter at @Rayke, @dylnrwn, and @triniwoodstock Instagram at @rayked, @dylnrwn, and @triniwoodstock   Leave us a review and mash that subscribe button.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Change is in the air in Newport, and we’re breaking down everything. Is Julie’s sister just incapable of reading a room? Why was Hailey so obvious about being friends with the strippers she invited to Julie’s party? Why of all places did the boys want to stay at the Hard Rock? How did Ryan learn to count cards, and why hasn’t he put this skill to monetary use before now? How much do we think Sandy and Jimmy were paid by Jimmy for The Lighthouse?

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Why do we think Anna really left? We aren’t children, we know it had more to do with Seth than she’s letting on. Why is that dude always a nefarious bouncer in everything he’s ever been cast in? Why didn’t we all realize what a gem Colin Hanks was back in 2004? What accounted for Julie’s major lapse in judgement--was it immaturity or evilness? Do we think Caleb knows about Luke and Julie? Was Theresa for real for real about just letting Marissa move in?!?

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Why is Seth so quick to dismiss Ryan’s concerns about Oliver? Could Oliver *really* not think of a better name than the head receptionist at the Four Seasons? How is Theresa the same age as Ryan, yet is able to rent hotel rooms and getting engaged like a grown ass woman? Does Josh Schwartz have any interest in rebooting The OC as a buddy cop vehicle for Luke and Ryan’s bromance?  Tune in for this and more as we go back in time to the height of Razr phones, ironic graphic tees, teeny tiny Louis Vuitton purses, and of course the DVD box sets that started it all.

Join Ryan, Dylan, and Chelsea as they deep dive into early episodes of the seminal TV show of their high school years, The OC. Oliver inserts himself into the Newport crew, and with him comes a plethora of troubles, including but not limited to coke dealers, green rooms, golf carts, and Golden Retriever Luke (aka the BEST version of Luke). When did Oliver and Robert Schwartzman meet? Where did Summer get those badass guitar pick earrings? How did we all not notice how breathtakingly gorgeous Hailey was during our first watch?
