She was just one 123 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 7: of those actors. Oh, Diane Keaton's in it. I got 124 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,280 Speaker 7: to see it. I don't care what it's about, I 125 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 7: don't care who's who she's in the movie with, you know, 126 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 7: And she's been able to really redefine herself over these years. 127 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 7: You know that she was so it was so early 128 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 7: in her career when she got the role of Kay 129 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 7: Adams in The Godfather, and she was the beating heart 130 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 7: of not just that film, but it's nineteen seventy four sequel, 131 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 7: and even if nineteen ninety got Father Part Three, which 132 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 7: is an underrated movie. But you know, the same year 133 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 7: that she got Annie Hall, which like I said, won 134 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 7: her Best Actress. That very same year, she had the 135 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 7: movie Looking for Mister Goodbar, came out six months after 136 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 7: Annie Hall. She played a school teacher, lonely school teacher 137 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 7: who goes out and night cruising the bars looking for 138 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 7: sexual encounters with men for ture gears in that film 139 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 7: as well. So she always took on challenging roles. And 140 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 7: you know, just a few years after Looking for Mister 141 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 7: Goodbar and Anni Hall, she did read with producer, director, 142 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 7: and star Warren Batties. So she was doing these really iconic, 143 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 7: trend setting, I would say, groundbreaking roles. Yeah. 144 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 5: And I know that, especially as she. 145 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 2: Continued her career and her legacy just supported this sense 146 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 2: of confidence. This actress who not only sort of embodied 147 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: I think a general sense of affluence or luxury, but 148 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 2: also had a warmth to her I think that that's 149 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: something that's really interesting about her is that she was 150 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 2: the sort of like playing alongside Woody Allen. It was 151 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 2: a very coastals, sort of New York kind of person 152 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 2: who was a high fast, you know, fashion icon all 153 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 2: these things, but also felt like she she was friendly 154 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 2: and warm. And I'll tell you a story real quick 155 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 2: before we get out of here. I actually ran into 156 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: her about a year ago. This is such a surprise. 157 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 2: I ran into her a year ago up in Santa 158 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 2: Barbara and I was having lunch and she was at 159 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 2: the same restaurant, and she was on the other side 160 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 2: of the restaurant. And it was pretty obvious when she 161 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 2: got there that everybody knew. 162 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 5: That, Oh look, Diane Keaton's here. Oh man, look at that. 163 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 5: That's huge. 164 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 7: Yep. 165 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 2: And I remember her on the way out. We had 166 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 2: the dog with us, and she she wanted to say 167 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 2: hello to the dog, and wanted to feed the dog 168 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 2: and give the dog a treat and and meet the dog. 169 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 2: And the dog, you know, not the friendliest dog, but 170 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 2: was happy to you know.

It's not 227 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 2: just the tim Burton. I don't know what it is. 228 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: You tell me another place where they have three or 229 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 2: four full time Halloween stores throughout the year, not just 230 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 2: open in September, not just open in August. I'm talking 231 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 2: about the whole year Halloween town. I think most of 232 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 2: Magnolia Boulevard is a Halloween town. You got the weird 233 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: oddities shops. But if you're looking to just do a 234 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 2: sort of normal trick or treat situation, walk in the 235 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 2: aisles of the CBS you want to pick up some 236 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 2: Halloween candy, you might notice something a little bit different. 237 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 5: Chocolate offerings are pretty weak. It's not only you. 238 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 2: The Atlantic has a whole right up about this, a 239 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 2: think piece, if you will. Long are the days where 240 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 2: we were talking about the implications of a COVID nineteen pandemic, 241 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 2: the ethics of masks wearing, mask wearing. Excuse me, now, 242 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 2: it's about chocolate. The Atlantic article points out that the 243 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: Hershey's nuggets no longer are filled with chocolate. It's a 244 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 2: pumpkin spice latte cream in the m and ms have 245 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 2: a berry flavored peanut butter inside filling. And kit cats 246 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 2: are not covered in chocolate anymore, but in a cinnamon coating. 247 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 2: Chocolate or at least big chocolate, is engaging in the 248 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 2: practice of cocoa cutting. That is, when companies in other 249 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 2: confectioneries confectionery makers cut the chocolate with other things to 250 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 2: make it go farther like an adorable little drug lord. 251 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 2: You don't tell mister Garrett Delli will keep with somebody 252 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: at chocolate for ourselves. 253 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 5: The reason is not surprising. The cost of chocolate is 254 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 5: way up. 255 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,439 Speaker 2: Cocoa prices are more than twice what they were in 256 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two. You can owe it to a below 257 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 2: average cocoa harvest. Oh no. By the way, not all 258 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 2: substitutions are bad. Candy, of course, all about novelty. You 259 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 2: get the creative flavors like cherry chocolate cupcake or lemon 260 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 2: meringue pie, and a chance for the synthetic happiness of 261 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 2: gummy candies. I got to tell you something embarrassing. When 262 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 2: I was a kid, I was not into chocolate. It's 263 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 2: very unusual for a child not to like chocolate. I 264 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 2: already had an uphill battle with being kind of a dweeb. 265 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: So in order for people not to learn of this 266 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: social faux pas, a kid doesn't like chocolate. 267 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 3: I didn't like it either. 268 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 5: You didn't like it either? 269 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 8: Nope. 270 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 3: I preferred broccoli for chocolate. 271 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 4: Ohiley, I know, talk about a nerd, Iiley, nud yep, wow, 272 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 4: I like it? 273 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: Now? 274 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 5: Did you so?
