<v Speaker 1>this there's your podcast yee the Hello, Hi, Hello, everyone,

0:00:18.520 --> 0:00:20.680
<v Speaker 1>welcome to like a Dip episode. It is now, it

0:00:20.760 --> 0:00:23.480
<v Speaker 1>is Monty and we are here today to give you

0:00:23.600 --> 0:00:26.360
<v Speaker 1>just a random morsel of a podcast you nibble on

0:00:26.480 --> 0:00:29.560
<v Speaker 1>with whatever you're doing. Yes, it usually pictures kind of

0:00:29.560 --> 0:00:32.879
<v Speaker 1>a school pick up, like something just a film. This

0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:34.239
<v Speaker 1>is a filler, it is.

0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:37.120
<v Speaker 2>And it's also something that you can go back and

0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:39.960
<v Speaker 2>listen to all the different ones because there is literally

0:00:40.040 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 2>something for everyone.

0:00:40.960 --> 0:00:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh there is, because they're random. It's a lucky dip.

0:00:43.200 --> 0:00:45.080
<v Speaker 1>You never know what you're going to get. Just the

0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:47.560
<v Speaker 1>other day, I was thinking, and I've spoken about this before,

0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:51.680
<v Speaker 1>like I'm forty four, I'm like at the point in

0:00:51.680 --> 0:00:53.760
<v Speaker 1>my life where I'm not done with my career, but

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:56.680
<v Speaker 1>my career is pivoting, and what does that pivot look like?

0:00:56.840 --> 0:01:00.600
<v Speaker 1>And sometimes that fucking nasty voice is like, you're done,

0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:03.760
<v Speaker 1>You're done. Everything is you know, it's too late to

0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:07.840
<v Speaker 1>create anything, And and then other times I get really inspired.

0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:09.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, now, fuck, no, I could do this or

0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:11.600
<v Speaker 1>this or I'm going to do this, like I do

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:14.760
<v Speaker 1>know stuff is ahead I don't know what yet. I

0:01:14.800 --> 0:01:17.080
<v Speaker 1>don't have the full buzz of going, oh, that's what

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to give a crack next to. But so

0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:22.360
<v Speaker 1>I was looking at people who had success later in life.

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:23.720
<v Speaker 2>I love this.

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:26.520
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Now, when I say later in life, there's not

0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:29.399
<v Speaker 1>that many that have done a huge amount after forty,

0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:33.080
<v Speaker 1>like they're forties, I should say it is around then

0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:35.479
<v Speaker 1>where they have their pivots and stuff. I know so,

0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:39.040
<v Speaker 1>but it's not to say you can't create it anytime

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:41.240
<v Speaker 1>in your life. But these are people who are really

0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>successful that it took them later in life, yes, before

0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:49.040
<v Speaker 1>they made anything of it. Okay, so we all know

0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:54.400
<v Speaker 1>Vera Wang, who, on a side note, terrifies me. She's

0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:57.880
<v Speaker 1>so unbelievably thin. I don't follow her, but she chops

0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:03.080
<v Speaker 1>up in my feed sometimes she's I forget how old

0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>she is now, but she'd be close to eighty. I

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:09.680
<v Speaker 1>would say shit. Anyway. I don't follow Vira Wing, but

0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:11.920
<v Speaker 1>she pops up on my Instagram feed a bit, and

0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:15.679
<v Speaker 1>she's usually kind of dancing or just modeling something by

0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:21.239
<v Speaker 1>her pool or whatever. She terrifies me like that, such

0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:23.400
<v Speaker 1>an unhealthy woman. You can't look at her and go

0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:26.120
<v Speaker 1>she's in a good mental headspace and she's seventy five.

0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:28.560
<v Speaker 1>That's what terrifies me to you, and it's like, oh fuck,

0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:32.040
<v Speaker 1>you're eating a body issues can follow you to your death.

0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:37.399
<v Speaker 2>Like I'm really hopeful that when I get older, I'm

0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:40.720
<v Speaker 2>just gonna let myself blow out. Yeah, I'm going to

0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 2>just be just let myself eat all the cake, just

0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:47.600
<v Speaker 2>hairy legs.

0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:49.840
<v Speaker 1>And I just just think it with all low Nah.

0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:51.560
<v Speaker 1>I just don't think it really works like that, you

0:02:51.560 --> 0:02:53.560
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean? You think, oh, yeah, now when

0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:56.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm older, I won't care, but we definitely still care. Anyway.

0:02:56.400 --> 0:02:59.280
<v Speaker 1>So before she became, you know, the head of the

0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:01.960
<v Speaker 1>bridle in Just Street, she worked in fashion and she

0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:04.560
<v Speaker 1>had a stint as a figure skater. So I shouldn't

0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:07.760
<v Speaker 1>like talking about her body is obviously fucked. So she

0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:11.080
<v Speaker 1>obviously has always had like, you know, an athletic body.

0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, so she never made it big ice skating,

0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:17.320
<v Speaker 1>but she did have a stint in it, so Faverra,

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.800
<v Speaker 1>it all started in nineteen eighty nine when she start

0:03:19.880 --> 0:03:22.280
<v Speaker 1>when she designed her own wedding dress. I think she

0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:24.519
<v Speaker 1>had a budget for herself of like ten grand or something.

0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:26.680
<v Speaker 1>It was a lot and she designed her own and

0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:30.560
<v Speaker 1>then she opened up her own bridlehouse in New York

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 1>and she was shorty. Wow, so that's quite a lot

0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:36.280
<v Speaker 1>older to start.

0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:40.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it is, but like what it's almost like why

0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:44.440
<v Speaker 2>should it matter? Wouldn't you think the older you get, Yes,

0:03:44.800 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 2>especially when you're talking about midlife, you're at that point

0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:51.080
<v Speaker 2>where you've acquired so much knowledge, you.

0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 1>Stick find so much to your prime. Yes, But I

0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:58.080
<v Speaker 1>do also think it's when you're younger with it, you know,

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 1>and you've got kind of less going on, that's where

0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:02.880
<v Speaker 1>and you've got your mojo to really get your hands dirty.

0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Like I don't want to get my hands dirty anymore

0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:05.720
<v Speaker 1>that much.

0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh see, now's the time I feel like I want

0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:12.880
<v Speaker 2>to get my hands dirty because I always worked, but

0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:15.320
<v Speaker 2>I was fortunate enough to be able to work from home,

0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:19.480
<v Speaker 2>but I stayed home with my kids. Yes, and I'm like, oh,

0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:24.080
<v Speaker 2>I gave it all. Then now I'm like, oh, now's

0:04:24.120 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 2>my time.

0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Now's your time.

0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:25.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:27.360
<v Speaker 1>I think a lot of women are like that too,

0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:31.839
<v Speaker 1>for sure. All right, Harland Sanders, did you know that

0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:33.039
<v Speaker 1>was the colonel's name?

0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:33.559
<v Speaker 2>Yes?

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:37.679
<v Speaker 1>I did not know that. What a random name anyway,

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:40.880
<v Speaker 1>So he was a complete failure. Who got fired from

0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:43.799
<v Speaker 1>dozens of jobs, like dozens, that's a lot of jobs

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:48.320
<v Speaker 1>to get fired from. Before he started a restaurant that failed,

0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:50.440
<v Speaker 1>and then when he went out of business, he found

0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 1>himself broke at the age of sixty five. Shit broke

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 1>at sixty five. But then things worked out and he

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 1>started his first Kentucky fry and sold it as a

0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:02.680
<v Speaker 1>franchise in nineteen fifty two.

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:05.680
<v Speaker 2>Puck, that's too late.

0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:08.560
<v Speaker 1>That's too late. You want to be chewing with the

0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:11.320
<v Speaker 1>fucking pina colada in your hand, then to be starting

0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:14.000
<v Speaker 1>a business. You want side spin offs maybe, but not

0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the main fucking course. That's slight.

0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:21.159
<v Speaker 2>Five. I have so much respect for people who because

0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:24.240
<v Speaker 2>so many of the world's most successful people have failed

0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:27.080
<v Speaker 2>time and time ago, time and time before they've cracked it. Yeah,

0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:29.600
<v Speaker 2>I would like fail and then just stay down.

0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:32.040
<v Speaker 1>Yes, same, Oh that didn't work, then mind, I'll give

0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:36.280
<v Speaker 1>that up. The next couple are actors, Okay, So Samuel Jackson,

0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:39.560
<v Speaker 1>he was forty six. He was in recovery from addiction

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:42.680
<v Speaker 1>to cocaine and heroin when he got that job alongside

0:05:42.760 --> 0:05:47.920
<v Speaker 1>John Travolta in pulp fiction. Bullshit, that was like he's

0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:52.479
<v Speaker 1>kind of make it roll like he's done bits and

0:05:52.520 --> 0:05:54.800
<v Speaker 1>pieces before then and now he's gone on to do

0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:58.680
<v Speaker 1>a bucket load of films. But yeah, hell, drag at it.

0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:03.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean role to start off with that monologue, not monologue,

0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:07.359
<v Speaker 2>but that Ezekiel twenty five or sixteen or whatever that

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:10.760
<v Speaker 2>he delivers before they assassinate that kid in pulp fiction

0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:13.640
<v Speaker 2>is like such a perfect bit of acting.

0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:16.760
<v Speaker 1>So he was really young when I saw that. All

0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I remember is I want the blue Betty pancakes. Oh yeah,

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:22.840
<v Speaker 1>And I just didn't really get it. I remember everybody did.

0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:24.560
<v Speaker 1>I obsessed with it, and I remember going, yeah, I

0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:25.640
<v Speaker 1>love it, but I didn't.

0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we were too at this, We were too young.

0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:31.560
<v Speaker 1>And also how he had to stab John travolt had

0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:34.320
<v Speaker 1>to stab Uma Thurman in her chest because she odeed

0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:35.440
<v Speaker 1>like it was traumatic.

0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:37.360
<v Speaker 2>Do you know they shot that in reverse? I think

0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:39.440
<v Speaker 2>I've told you this before. They shot that scene in

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:41.200
<v Speaker 2>reverse because you know, he's got to bring it down

0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:44.720
<v Speaker 2>onto her quickly, like he didn't want to hurt her.

0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:47.520
<v Speaker 2>He was scared, so they shot it in reverse. Oh

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:48.160
<v Speaker 2>that's so coral.

0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:51.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I love that. Good on you. Next one

0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:55.080
<v Speaker 1>is Steve Carrall. Oh. He didn't have much success on

0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:57.880
<v Speaker 1>screen until he was cast in The Forty year Old

0:06:58.000 --> 0:06:59.159
<v Speaker 1>Virgin in two thousand.

0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:00.200
<v Speaker 2>That's a funny movie.

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:02.279
<v Speaker 1>One of the best of all time. He was forty

0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 1>three that year. Was he forty three when he played

0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:07.360
<v Speaker 1>that role. Yeah, And then he went on that year

0:07:07.400 --> 0:07:10.040
<v Speaker 1>to also play Michael Scott on the US version of

0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 1>the Office.

0:07:11.440 --> 0:07:14.520
<v Speaker 2>He's been so good in that He's had so many

0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:18.360
<v Speaker 2>like iconic sort of roles where you could someone could

0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 2>be pigeonholed, like, oh, that's them forever, but he's gone.

0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 1>On any kind of thing. Yeah, because in What's the

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Morning Wars? He played a serious actor in that.

0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 2>That really upset me his role in that, because I

0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:34.400
<v Speaker 2>hated him by the end of that, yeah, And I

0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:36.520
<v Speaker 2>was like, oh no, but I really like him.

0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:39.360
