Jess SmithGUEST
I take fifteen years before that happened in the sports industry and in a variety of different leagues, learning how Major League Soccer operated different than the National Hockey League and operated different than Major League Baseball.
Jess SmithGUEST
And by the time I joined Julie Uhrman and Karen Ortman and Natalie Portman at Angel City, there were five of us in our homes and on our laptops in the pandemic saying, "We're gonna build the most powerful women's sports team in the world." And that was really what we set out to do.
Jess SmithGUEST
We, first of all, were really curious.
Jess SmithGUEST
I think when you go into a brand-new product, sports or not, you have to understand the landscape and understand who you're going to be, and we did a really good job of defining who we were going to be and what we were going to do from day one.
NickHOST
yeah
EthanHOST
uh natalie portman was supposedly attached uh and then development stalled basically until like 2014 and then we got this version of it
NickHOST
no i honestly think she would be great that is so funny casting natalie portman to be kiara knightley that's so
EthanHOST
good that's so good it would be good because who doesn't they
NickHOST
think they're almost the same person let's be honest
EthanHOST
I have not.
EthanHOST
Okay, allow me to explain some Star Wars lore to you.
EthanHOST
The whole bit is that Keira Knightley was one of the handmaidens to Natalie Portman, who was basically a queen, Queen Amidala.
Steven Ray MorrisGUEST
Wait, but have any of you gone out on a date? Because one of my first dates, this is...
Steven Ray MorrisGUEST
This isn't my first date, but I did go on a date to see Attack of the Clones, which is kind of the worst Star Wars movie to see a date where it's an awkward dude trying to woo Natalie Portman.
Steven Ray MorrisGUEST
In
SammieHOST
front of the fireplace, the fireplace scene would have sent me for a loop in that one, I think.
Maureen CallahanHOST
And that went nowhere.
Maureen CallahanHOST
But Brad, in making this film, you know how like when Natalie Portman was making Black Swan and she was like well into her late twenties, early to mid thirties, she became a prima ballerina.
Maureen CallahanHOST
Like, cause you can just do anything if you're an actor, if you just train for it, you can do anything.
Maureen CallahanHOST
And like you can only become a prima ballerina if you start training at a very young, young, young age.
Dominique DePrimaHOST
And this has an entertainment angle too, because what I've noticed is, well, Nithya Raman's husband is an entertainment executive, and so she has been able to marshal... much of white Hollywood to her campaign.
Dominique DePrimaHOST
She's got, I think it's Natalie Portman, if I'm not mistaken, who is doing her fundraising among Hollywood types.
Dominique DePrimaHOST
And then on the side of the mayor, Mayor Karen Bass, the incumbent, black Hollywood seems to be rallying behind her.
Dominique DePrimaHOST
I've seen, you know, of course I saw her at the BET Awards and I've seen many,
Rachel FisherHOST
Like there was a very famous Julia Roberts one.
Rachel FisherHOST
I think, obviously, Natalie Portman had some more in the 2000s, I think.
Rachel FisherHOST
And it was always kind of borderline creepy.
Rachel FisherHOST
Yeah.
Rachel FisherHOST
I was like, they're so horny for her.
Rachel FisherHOST
We should
Desi JedeikinHOST
talk about that author that, like, had a huge boner for Natalie Portman.
Desi JedeikinHOST
Yeah.
Eli MatthewsonHOST
Yeah.
Eli MatthewsonHOST
With Renee and with Natalie Portman.
Chris ParkerHOST
Perfect.
Chris ParkerHOST
I mean, that's-
Jeremy WilliamsHOST
When you said Mila Kunis, I was like, oh, Barbara Hershey.
Jeremy WilliamsHOST
She plays Natalie Portman's mother.
Jeremy WilliamsHOST
And Natalie Portman won an Oscar for that.
Jeremy WilliamsHOST
That's a good movie.
Jeremy WilliamsHOST
That's Darren Aronofsky,
LindsayHOST
And this book did not get me out of that reading slump, let me tell you.
LindsayHOST
I read Life of M by Rachel Cusk, which we talked about is the kind of gossip, or it's not really gossipy, but it was a book that was based on Natalie Portman that was rumored to have really kind of made her upset because the two were friends and she sort of mined Natalie Portman's life for this book.
LindsayHOST
And it was like a really short book, right? Like it was...
LindsayHOST
Yeah, it was four hours on audiobook.
LindsayHOST
It was not for me.
LindsayHOST
I did not enjoy it.
LindsayHOST
And if I were Natalie Portman, I would be pissed about it.
LindsayHOST
Because it basically, like, intimates that she's, like...
Jordan HoffmanHOST
...
Jordan HoffmanHOST
the, the recurring joke is that Turtle, the young boy, has an older sister who's, like, an adorable, you know, kinda Natalie Portman circle beautiful girls-esque gal.
Jordan HoffmanHOST
Diff- the actress is not Natalie Portman, obviously.
Jordan HoffmanHOST
And the recurring gag is that Turtle refers to her as a sex worker over and over and over again.
