This podcast covers New Girl Season 1, Episode 5, Cece Crashes, which originally aired on November 8, 2011 and was written by Rachel Axler and directed by John Hamburg. Here’s a quick recap of the episode:Cece breaks up with the DJ she’s been seeing and crashes with Jess for a few days to avoid going home and seeing her ex. She points out that she thinks Nick likes Jess because his feet point at her when she’s talking and when Jess realizes this she freaks out. Winston and Schmidt both are interested in Cece and she runs them in circles to get her approval before apologizing and ends up holding hands with Schmidt.We discuss Pop Culture References such as:Walter Matthau / Jack Lemmon in Grumpy Old Men - Walter Matthau is Jess’ perfect man and she wanted to be the girl Jack LemmonTrailer: https://youtu.be/1tTnHtYLV8EBen Kingsley + Naveen Andrews - Schmidt is naming different things and people he loves about India and mentions both of these actorsAdditional Pop Culture References from Schmidts list of things he “loves” about India are:Slumdog - This is a reference to the movie Slumdog Millionaire which released in 2008 and centers around a Mumbai teenager who reflects on his life after being accused of cheating on a game show.Naan - A thick flatbread found in North Indian cuisine.Pepper - Black pepper actually comes from a flowering vine that is native to India but is found and cultivated all around the world these days.Stories of Rudyard Kipling - Rudyard Kipling was an English writer who was born in India which was the inspiration for most of his work, most notably The Jungle Book.Respect for Cows - Although not all religions in India avoid eating beef, Hindus generally consider the cow to be a symbol of life as it is associated with imagery related to the Hindu belief system.Taj Mahal - The Taj Mahal is a marble mausoleum in the city of Agra and was built as a tomb in 1632 by Shah Jahan for his favorite wife Mumtaz Mahal.Deepak Chopra - Deepak Chopra is an Indian-American author who is known as one of the wealthiest figures in alternative medicine.Anyone named “Patel” - This refers to the last name “Patel” which is a common last name in the Indian state of Gujarat. Approximately 1 in 10 of people of Indian origins in the US have the last name Patel.Monsoons - Monsoons are seasonal changes in the direction of the strongest winds of a region. It typically causes wet and dry seasons and is most often associated with the Indian Ocean.Cobras in Baskets - This refers to the practice of snake charming which is a typical depiction of Indian street acts, especially in non Indian media. Today, this profession is largely dying out as it is no longer legal in India and this can be dangerous.Mango Chutney/Any type of Chutney - Chutney is a family of condiments of sauces used in Indian cuisine. There are many forms of chutney and in India this refers to both fresh and pickled preparations although in some Indian languages there is a distinction.Teepees - This is actually not an Indian reference but a reference to a tent used by the Indigineous peoples of the Plains in the Great Plains and Canadian Prairies of North America.We also cover “Schmidtisms” when Schmidt was on the phone call with a “girl” to impress Cece and another was Jess’s description of Schmidt and his reaction. For “Not in 2020” on this episode we discuss Schmidt and his kimono, Schmidt in his pursuit of Cece, and the representation of Eduardo on the episode. We also give a brief look into Edin Gali, the Guest Star we feature in this episode. Some of his upcoming films include 60 Minutes to Kill, All-Star Weekend, Killing Angels, and The Road Home.This episode got a 8/10 Rating from both of us but Kritika’s favorite character was Jess and Kelly’s was Winston.Additional notes mentioned in podcast:Here’s the type of TikTok video Kelly was referencing in regards to the “BirdCat”: https://youtu.be/mmFdjq6Qyr0?t=147Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 6!Music: "Hotshot” by scottholmesmusic.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or email us at whosthatgirlpod@gmail.com!

Today, we're re-releasing an old episode about how hard it is getting to decipher fact from fiction. Because next week, we’ll be putting out a story showing what happens when certain reality-altering tools get released into the wild.  Simon Adler takes us down a technological rabbit hole of strangely contorted faces and words made out of thin air. And a wonderland full of computer scientists, journalists, and digital detectives forces us to rethink even the things we see with our very own eyes.  Oh, and by the way, we decided to put the dark secrets we learned into action, and unleash this on the internet.    Reported by Simon Adler. Produced by Simon Adler and Annie McEwen. Special thanks to everyone on the University of Southern California team who helped out with the facial manipulation: Kyle Olszewski, Koki Nagano, Ronald Yu, Yi Zhou, Jaewoo Seo, Shunsuke Saito, and Hao Li.

We’re back with the second episode and incredible guest Ben Siemon (Crazy Ex Girlfriend, Adam Ruins Everything, Freak Dance). We’re talking the second episode (originally NOT the second episode) of Parks and Recreation S1E2 “Pilot” where Leslie tries to get people to come out to her community forum, and it goes poorly! We talk about how the first season of P&R is less than perfect, and maybe just skippable and cringy. Plus, we all share unpopular opinions, and Ben comes in hot with which Sister Act is best. And we speculate on the size of penises of our friends. And Ben treats himself with a Whopper Meal, and we play some game, and have a great time. Episode two, DONE. Take an iPad on your way out.

Rachel Axler is a former Daily Show writer whose longing to write more dialogue and story motivated her to become a staff writer at NBC’s Parks and Rec and eventually move on to write for Bored To Death, New Girl, and The Goodwin Games. She shares the similarities and differences of working at these shows and we work together to write the funniest tweet ever written about the Petraeus scandal, though that’s admittedly subjective. Rachel also has a graduate degree in playwriting… so take that!
