Rajyasree rattles off names of actors from The Crown.

Abhinandan: I don’t know. Like you’ve rattled off 10 names. I don’t even know one. I can’t even remember the name of the film I watched. I’m very impressed. You eat badam every day?

Rajyasree: I eat.

Abhinandan: Really? Then start eating less (starts laughing).

Rajyasree: You all are laughing, he’s fat shaming me.

Abhinandan continues laughing.

This and a whole lot of stuff awful and awesome as Abhinandan Sekhri and Rajyasree Sen review the series The Crown Season 5; the movies Bullet Train and Monica, O My Darling; the FIFA World Cup Opening Ceremony; and the Adidas World Cup ad.
