the take
every time we learn one more thing about the bird story it gets better. first it's a pop star who wanted a mechanical bird. then it's a magic shop. then it's owned by magicians. then the magicians are twins. at that point we're basically in a weasley brothers spinoff. for the record, the shop's co-owners include twin card magicians Dan and Dave Buck, alongside a third partner, Adam Rubin. none of that changes the bird drama itself, it just makes it the most whimsical celebrity feud of the year, and we're not mad about it.
this is the hosts' commentary and speculation for entertainment, not a statement of fact about anyone in it.
