Michael Calore: This is genius.
Katie Drummond: Thank you.
Lauren Goode: This is the reality TV of the future.
Katie Drummond: It’s incredible.
Lauren Goode: It has arrived.
Katie Drummond: And you know what? And I just did their job for them, because it’s marketing for their company. They got me.
Michael Calore: All right, Lauren, what’s your recommendation?
Lauren Goode: My recommendation might go nicely on your Amalfi Private Jet. Hear me out, peonies. You guys like flowers?
Michael Calore: Oh, peonies.
Lauren Goode: Peonies.
Katie Drummond: I like flowers.
Michael Calore: Sure.
Lauren Goode: Do you like peonies?
Katie Drummond: I couldn’t tell one from another, but I like them.
Lauren Goode: They’re beautiful. It’s peony season here. I’m saying that now with the O annunciated, which is how I would do if I was giving my architectural digest home tour.
Michael Calore: I see.
Lauren Goode: Yes, these are peonies.
Katie Drummond: Oh, I’m just looking at Google images of them. They’re very nice.
Lauren Goode: Aren’t they beautiful?
Katie Drummond: They’re very nice.
Lauren Goode: The cool thing is they do have a very short-lived season. In this part of the world, it’s typically late May through June. If you plant them, they only bloom for a short period of time. If you buy them, they’re these closed balls, not to be confused with Edward Coristine “Big Balls.” They’re these closed balls, and then after a few days they open up and they’re the most magnificent looking things. They’re really, really pretty. And I got some last week at the flower shop, and when they opened, I was like, “Oh my God.” It just made me so happy. And they’re bright pink. And so, if you’re just looking to do something nice for yourself, or someone you just want to pick up a nice little thoughtful gift for someone, get them some peonies. You know what? I didn’t check to see if they’re toxic to pets. So, check that first, folks. But, yes.
Michael Calore: That’s great.
Katie Drummond: Mike, what’s yours?
Michael Calore: So, I’m going to recommend an app. If you follow me on Instagram, Snackfight in Instagram, you may notice that I have not posted in a long time, and that’s because I stopped posting on Instagram, and I basically just use it as a direct message platform now. But there are still parts of my brain that enjoy sharing photos with my friends, so I found another app to go share photos on and it’s called Retro.
Lauren Goode: Yeah, Retro.
Michael Calore: So, it’s been around for a while, but I went casting about for other things out there, and I found that there was a group of my friends who are on Retro, and I was like, “Oh, this is great.” It’s very private. By default, somebody can only see back a couple of weeks. But if you would like to, you can give the other user a key, which unlocks your full profile so that they can look at all of your photos going back to the beginning of time, according to whenever you started posting on Retro. I really like that about it, the fact that when I post a photo, I know exactly who’s going to see it. There are no Reels, there’s no ads, there’s no messaging features, there’s no weird soft-core porno on there, there’s no memes. It’s just pictures. And I really like that. It’s like riding a bicycle through the countryside after driving a car through a city. It’s like a real different way to experience photo sharing, because it’s exactly like the original way of experiencing photo sharing, and I’d forgotten what that feels like.
