00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: you and Pete have in common is one month ago thereabouts,

50
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 1: I did I think your podcast on a Tuesday and

Speaker 1: you were like, yeah, like talk to me like in

00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,679
Speaker 1: a month. And so I sent a message to you.

58
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: I sent a message to Pete. I was like, it's

59
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,839
Speaker 1: been a month, let's do it. And here I am,

60
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: and I am waiting.

61
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 4: For a text from Pete. I'm optimistic.

62
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 1: I feel like I understand he was busy with you guys.

63
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: And I have the big pod jam in Vegas going on.

64
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 1: What happens in Vegas gets podcasted everywhere, truly, I mean,

65
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: what what stays? Nothing stays, There is no every it is,

66
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: there is impermanence. What happens here is gone a moment later,

67
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: like sand running.

68
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 2: Through our fingers. That is true. You have a great time.

69
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 2: We're only living with the impacts of what happened already.

70
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 2: And that is Mike kaplan. If you guys go heillo, Uh,

71
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: my man, Mike, he like he just gave you the backstory.

72
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 2: He hit me up.

73
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 3: It was like, it's the quickest ton around for you ever.

74
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, he said no. I said, don't be a stranger,

75
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 2: and he said, hello, friend, and he's back already. Mike,

76
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 2: what shakes man? What's been going on in the last month.

77
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 2: I've missed anything. I feel like these segments are gonna

78
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 2: get shorter the more you come on the show. Oh well,

79
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 2: we'll see about that. I challenge accepted.

80
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna answer that question until I'm back on next month.

81
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 2: I believe you could do it.

82
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 4: I don't just kind of roll.

83
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 2: Through, roll over.

84
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: See last I was here, it was I think a

85
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 1: day before my special Renie was coming out, and we

86
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: did We're thereabouts, And so the special came out and

87
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 1: a lot of people have been watching and saying nice things,

88
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 1: and I'm continuing to encourage people to do that.

89
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 4: You know, watch again. I don't know how the numbers work.

90
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 1: Just put it on for thirty one seconds, turn it off,

91
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: put it on again for thirty one seconds, keep at it.

92
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 4: Inflate those numbers. That's the way you do things.

93
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: Tell tell friends, I've I've been now this is I'm

00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: Ooh, this is a what a great a what a

106
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,159
Speaker 1: rich mind we have here to dig into?

107
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 2: It is?

108
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 1: It is new to me, like I have acted in

109
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: that friends of mine have like invited me to be like,

110
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: do you want to be in this sketch?

111
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,159
Speaker 2: Do you want to be in this movie?

112
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: I'm like absolutely, I Like I got an agent for

113
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: the first time in two thousand and nine, and they

114
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: started sending me out on you know, auditions, and I didn't.

115
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: I'd never taken acting classes. I didn't have a specific

116
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: desire to act. It wasn't my art of choice. Like

117
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: like like I like making music and comedy where I'm

118
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 1: me the guy who makes it and I know exactly

119
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: how it goes because I'm the director and producer, writer, actor,

120
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: I'm I'm all of it. But in acting, when somebody's

121
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: like be this, say this, I was like, ah.

122
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 4: You can't tell me what to do, and they're like, well,

123
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 4: then you can't be.

124
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 1: In oura because the director does kind of tell you

125
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: what to do and the writer does tell you what

126
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,479
Speaker 1: to say. But RENI for many years, you know, we're

127
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: both in our forties. For certainly most of her adult life,

128
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: she has been very interested in acting, as you know,

129
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: an art form. She has memorized lots of monologues, we've

130
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 1: gone to plays together. She has like lots of books

131
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: about acting, the art of it and such, and she's

132
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: been extremely interested in it but never officially studied it.

133
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: But there's a place in New York City called the

134
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: Barrow gri G where like lots of great actors have

135
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 1: come through there. We saw them do a show in

136
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: Scotland when we were there for the Edinburgh f invest

137
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three and their show it was like

138
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 1: watching real people like Renie was super impressed. I also

139
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: it was just like moving and like heavy and really human.

140
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 1: And then one of the actors in it invited us

141
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: to another show in New York and we went and

142
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: saw that same deal and then an actor friend of

143
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: mine told me, oh, yeah, they're like the best.

144
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 4: They were.

145
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: Other acting classes will kind of teach you, my friend said,

146
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: they'll act, they'll teach you to act like them, like

147
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: this is our way, do it like us, whereas the

148
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: Barrow group, my friend said, will teach you to act

149
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: like you like you will, which is like a really

150
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 1: beautiful like. There's this book I think I probably talked

151
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: to you about, called Several Short Sentences about writing by

152
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 1: Virlin Klinkenborg, and he at the beginning of it says,

153
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: I'm not here to teach you to write like me.

154
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 4: I'm here to teach you to write like you.

155
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: I think that any teaching, any classes, any way that

156
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: you study any kind of art, it really has to

157
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: come from you. So the best teachers are really facilitators

158
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: to help you get out of the way to help

159
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: you discover, you know, ship away at what's not you

160
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: to be like, oh, here's me coming out of the

161
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: you know the marble that Oh it was me the

162
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: whole time, me inside of me.

163
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 2: It's like a real treasure. It's like whenever people talk

164
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 2: about like a lot of times people talk about education

165
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 2: and what kids need and what schools need to do.

166
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 2: A lot of times people talk about what they should learn,

167
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 2: like they should learn remember, they should memorize the Constitution,

168
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 2: or they should learn, you know, the Ten Commandments or whatever,

169
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,319
Speaker 2: and very little of it is like how to learn,

170
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 2: Like they should learn how to learn, they should learn

171
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 2: how to reason, how to think? Yeah, like how like

172
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 2: not what to think? Resolve? How does this thing reach

173
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 2: a logical conclusion? Like that kind of thing. And that

174
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 2: feels like that's the approach to the acting class is

175
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 2: like we're not gonna tell you like, okay, do an

176
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 2: impression of another actor. We're gonna find a way that

177
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 2: because this is the big thing about acting. I think

178
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 2: so many people are just cast as a heightened version

179
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,720
Speaker 2: of themselves, Like like a lot of acting seems to

180
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 2: be done in the casting right, Like like you'll watch

181
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 2: something you're like, you know, and this isn't even shade

182
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 2: to anyone. Some of our greatest actors are just kind

183
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 2: of themselves all the time. Denzel is just Denzel. Like

184
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: there's drug dealing Denzel, there's cop Denzel, there's time traveling Denzel.

185
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 2: But that's It's like I'm watching Denzel be a different

186
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,680
Speaker 2: be in a different circumstance, but similar manner. Like every

187
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 2: every Denzel is. I was like, ha, ha, my man,

188
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,559
Speaker 2: every Denzel. I watched Glad. I watched the news Gladiator

189
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 2: sequel and he was in Gladiator. Like, ha, my man.

190
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 2: Reading the newspaper, I said, you didn't cast you cast

191
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 2: the Denzel. And that's what comes with Denzel. So maybe

192
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 2: that is the secret. Maybe get cast more being the

193
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 2: Mike Kaplan that people already think of, but in this

194
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 2: role as Oh is Mike Caplan in a coffee shop

195
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 2: meeting a girl.

196
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 4: You know, I'm optimistic.

197
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 1: I think that you're one hundred percent right, and I

198
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: think there are different kinds of acting where like did

199
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: you see The Fighter with Christian Bale where he played

200
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 1: like a real life person, And then at the very

201
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 1: end of the movie, there was like a brief scene

202
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: from real life that they showed the real life person

203
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,839
Speaker 1: that he and the other actor were portraying, and I'm like, oh,

204
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: he became that guy. Like there's a different kind of

205
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: acting where like you can disappear into a role like

206
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: character actors like Gary Oldman I see in different things,

207
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,719
Speaker 1: or Vincentinofrio like they like are like Vincentinofrio and the

208
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: Kingpin are not identical, like he does different things in

209
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 1: different movies. But what you're saying, you know and not

210
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 1: this threat again no shade to anyway, like Jack Nicholson

211
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 1: in certain things, Robert de Niro in certain things, like

212
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:58,839
Speaker 1: they've they've done.

213
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 4: Their actors, they know how to act.

214
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: But for me this was like kind of eye opening

215
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 1: and mind blowing that like I was like I don't

216
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 1: know how to act, and because I had an idea

217
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: of what acting was where and it's like acting you

218
00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: know where you have to like do something right. But

219
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: the school the bat we took started taking. We took

220
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 1: level one and Level two, which was like ten classes

221
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: each earlier this year, Reeney and I together and it

222
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: was incredible and like I now know I'm not saying

223
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: like I'm the best at acting now, but I was

224
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: like I was at zero or negative I was doing

225
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: I was like working against myself and now I'm like, oh,

226
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:40,199
Speaker 1: Like like Anthony Hopkins, he to act. He learns his

227
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: lines by reading them two hundred and fifty times and

228
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: he's like, I know them so well that then them

229
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 1: the magic can arise, like if you know the lines,

230
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 1: like the that's the way the the Barrow School acting

231
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: style is taught, is like just acting as doing acting

232
00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: like literally actions like what would this character doing? They're drunk,

233
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 1: so they're kind of you know what, like trying to

234
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 1: not what do you do when you're drunk? You try

235
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: to not let people know that you're doing. Look, I'm

236
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: not I'm not drunk. Why would you why would you

237
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 1: say that?

238
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 2: You know?

239
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,439
Speaker 4: And so uh yeah, it's just it was cool to discover.

240
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: Here's one final piece of it that was really cool

241
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 1: because one of the earlier things in my non acting,

242
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 1: non career that I didn't like was like going to

243
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: auditions when you're like, I don't want to memorize this thing.

244
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 1: To ride a train for an hour, sit in the

245
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: room for a half hour, do a thing for a minute, leave,

246
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: take a train for an hour home, Like what I

247
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: could just sit home and write and do my own thing.

248
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,240
Speaker 1: But my one teacher was like, just see an audition

249
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: as another opportunity for acting. For the process of acting,

250
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: which includes like memorizing the lines, which I never did

251
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 1: in the past, and now I love memorizing lines, even

252
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 1: because the way they taught us, our first teacher taught

253
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 1: us to memorize lines was kind of counter intuitive, uh,

254
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 1: to the way I conceived of it previously, which is

255
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: they said, don't just if the line is like to

256
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: be or not to be, that is a question to be.

257
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: Don't just be like to be or not to be

258
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 1: that as a question to be or not to be?

259
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: That as a question to be or not to be. Like,

260
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: don't just carve a groove and do it one way,

261
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 1: because that will then get you into this pattern that

262
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: you're locked into and you won't be able to it'll

263
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 1: take hard work to pull yourself out of and do

264
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 1: it another way. So the way our teacher recommended was like,

265
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: when you're memorizing it, try to read the lines over

266
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 1: and over in different ways all the time. So I

267
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 1: do them like in different sing song voices. I do

268
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: in like impressions of other comedians I'd be like to

269
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: be or not to be, that is the question, you know,

270
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: And I would be in the shower just twenty minutes

271
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: at a time, just like jazz, improvising in my lines,

272
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: and it was It's so fun. So yeah, it is

273
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: a new, a new exciting thing.

274
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 5: So I to Mike, has this improved your comedy? Because

275
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 5: you know, where you all stay stage, comedy is a

276
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 5: performance like he didn't.

277
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 2: You didn't always really just break up with your girlfriend,

278
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, like like that that could

279
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 2: have happened months ago. But but to be in the

280
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 2: moment on the stage and be able to tap into

281
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,079
Speaker 2: something that's like that makes the audience feel like, oh,

282
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 2: this guy really just broke over his girlfriend on the

283
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 2: way over here and he just hopped on the stage.

284
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: Yes, I think that intellectually and like philosophically, this has

285
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: helped in a way where like there's different stages of

286
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 1: the comedy, like when the comedy is like ready to

287
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 1: be recorded or you know, has been like curated over

288
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: the course of weeks, months, years, and it's this is

289
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 1: how it goes.

290
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 4: Then yeah, there is an element to.

291
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: Like, oh, this is the costume that I'm putting on

292
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: I'm playing the part of me from a year ago

293
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: when I thought of this thing.

294
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 2: But I also.

295
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: Always like to leave there, leave some room for improvisation,

296
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 1: for discovery in the moment. And that's the thing that

297
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 1: now can also be done in acting that I didn't

298
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 1: think could be done in acting proper, which is like

299
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 1: here's oh, here's a fun thing from one of our classes.

300
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 4: There's a tool they would give us.

301
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: These tools from this book by Seth Barrish, who helped

302
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: found the school, uh co founded it.

303
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 4: He one of the tools.

304
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 1: Is pattern breaking, And so it was like if you're

305
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: I was doing a scene and I was taught, I

306
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: was like a hot a guy was high, and there

307
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: was a lady, a young lady who was drunk in

308
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: the scene, and we're just connecting or trying to connect,

309
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: and there's a line that I was saying it. Uh

310
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: So the pattern breaking is like, take it how you've

311
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: been saying it, and don't pause anywhere you've been pausing,

312
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: and do pause anywhere you weren't pausing, to just make

313
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: the pauses be different and see what happens. And so

314
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 1: there was a line where she said everyone hated me,

315
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 1: and I was saying, oh, you're not that hateable, and

316
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 1: that what I just did. Every time it's four words

317
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: you're not that hatable, Like how else could it be?

318
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: And then just break the pattern and I was like, oh,

319
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 1: you're not that hateable. And then it comes like, yeah,

320
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: it doesn't say like unless the director or the script

321
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: says specifically you emphasize this word or you pause here,

322
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: like it's all other than what's written.

323
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 4: It's open to interpretation.

324
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 1: You can perform it in any way, and so that

325
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: is something sometimes I get go like pendulum swing a

326
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: little too far in that direction with my comedy, where

327
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: I'll like say something away that.

328
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 4: Works, and then I'll be like, what if I play

329
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 4: with it a little bit?

330
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 1: And eventually it gets to a place where people are like,

331
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: what are you even saying? I'm like, I'm acting, you know,

332
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 1: and they're like, well, but what are you saying.

333
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, yeah, that's right. I also do have

334
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 4: to communicate the idea.

335
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 2: Sometimes that's really like on the writing side of it,

336
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 2: having like written certain stuff for people to perform. Sometimes

337
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 2: that's where the gold is is them performing it and

338
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 2: not how you saw it, you know, because everyone brings

339
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 2: something to this collaborative art form, so like the actors

340
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 2: are bringing their bodies and as an instrument, and it

341
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 2: can be a pause. I'm in Uh, it works both

342
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 2: ways on game theory. One time I wrote a joke

343
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 2: where we were supposed to be coming out of a

344
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 2: video of this NBA star who was getting in a

345
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 2: lot of silly trouble, and the video had him playing

346
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 2: with the tiniest gun I've ever seen in my life

347
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 2: in a in a strip club and recording it himself,

348
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,399
Speaker 2: and it's just like, whoa, Like, this guy want to

349
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 2: get in trouble? Like what there? Like there is no upside,

350
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 2: there was no reason for him to do this, and

351
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 2: he's gonna get in trouble for it. But coming out,

352
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 2: he's like holding the gun up and dancing to the

353
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 2: to the music, and then it the way the TV

354
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 2: show works, It comes right out of video back to

355
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 2: the host Bomoni Jones, and in the writer's room, I

356
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 2: was like, Hey, when we come out of there, you

357
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 2: should you should just go peo peo pew, like it's

358
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 2: a really little gun and they'll crack the audience up.

359
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 2: And then when he did it in the read like,

360
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 2: it cracked everyone up. Everybody was like ohh my god.

361
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 2: You know this is gonna kill when we get out there.

362
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 2: But then when we did it live, for some reason,

363
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 2: he just did it a different way, or he kind

364
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 2: of froze up and we had it's like, cut the joke.

365
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 2: It's not worth Like even my vision that work back

366
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 2: there is not working here, and it's not worth pushing

367
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 2: it to get it to work here because we're both

368
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,880
Speaker 2: bringing something else. And then there's I'm sure there's plenty

369
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,679
Speaker 2: of times he wanted to say something I wrote it

370
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 2: differently or whatever. So I'll have to say, like, when

371
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:28,200
Speaker 2: you're the comedian, you are the writer and you are

372
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:31,680
Speaker 2: the performer, and you can surprise yourself with that pause

373
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,439
Speaker 2: and be like, huh, this joke is funny this way

374
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 2: that when I was writing this in my head, it wasn't.

375
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,159
Speaker 2: It didn't work. But you had to give yourself the

376
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,719
Speaker 2: permission to experiment on stage. And I feel like an

377
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,120
Speaker 2: acting class would kind of give you that a little

378
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,679
Speaker 2: bit more like no play with it, like this is

379
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 2: a good skill to have.

380
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I give myself permission to experiment on stage

381
00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:00,080
Speaker 1: and right here, look, I'm experimenting with this.

382
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,840
Speaker 2: But what are you gonna do if you get a

383
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 2: what are you gonna do if you get a roll

384
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 2: where they're like, this guy has eyebrows that are really

385
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 2: tightly cut, Like he has the neatest eyebrows in the world.

386
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 1: You know, you know what's really funny is do you

387
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: guys know?

388
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 2: I don't know.

389
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 1: You know Matt McCarthy. I feel like he works with

390
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,680
Speaker 1: Pete Holmes a lot. He's like a redheaded, super funny

391
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: comic and he has a beard, and he was the

392
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: like he got a part. I'm gonna spoil the ending

393
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 1: of the story. He got this part of Verizon Fio

394
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: Sky like for maybe some ten, ten, fifteen years ago,

395
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,159
Speaker 1: he was in a lot of commercials for Verizon and

396
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: it was like a big deal, get buy a house.

397
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 2: I don't even know.

398
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 1: And my I under my understanding is that he before

399
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: he got the part, it was down to him and

400
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 1: one other person and they were like in the final interview,

401
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 1: the final audition, they go to him, so we were

402
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: gonna make our final decision. We just want to know

403
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: if we asked you to, would you shave your beard

404
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: for this role? And he said nah, And they're like,

405
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: all right, you're hired. I don't know, like that's the

406
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,959
Speaker 1: secret answer. Like, I don't know why whoa but so

407
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: I said, I don't. I'm know Matt McCarthy. I would

408
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: trim the eyebrows. They'll grow back. Reenie will be okay,

409
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 1: I think you know. Depending obviously, I really want to

410
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:23,600
Speaker 1: do the role. I am happy too, but that's the

411
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 1: only thing that would make me do it.

412
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 2: I want it. Well, now let me ask you this.

413
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 2: It's been a month since the special came out. The

414
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 2: special was named Reenie, and it's about spoiler art Reenie. Yes,

415
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:36,919
Speaker 2: your current girlfriend.

416
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: You can still watch. That's not everything. It's just an

417
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,680
Speaker 1: hour of me saying yeah.

418
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 2: He just says over and over, are y'all still together?

419
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,919
Speaker 2: Because that would be awkward if a month later is like,

420
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 2: actually this this we were wrong about the comedy special.

421
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 2: It didn't work out. Reenie.

422
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 1: Come over and say hi that we're still to Reenie

423
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: an oh no, she's out for the evening.

424
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 2: You believe me?

425
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: Right?

426
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:06,199
Speaker 2: Pretty good?

427
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 4: Acting, pretty good?

428
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 1: That's acting right there? The pause sold. Yes, we're getting

429
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 1: ready tomorrow. We were getting on. I mean, look, no

430
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: one ever knows. In Buddhism, they say like next breath,

431
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 1: not guaranteed, next lifetime guaranteed, you know, so who knows.

432
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 1: But up until now, as far as I know, what

433
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 1: happens in reading and Mike's life is doesn't stay there.

434
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 2: We tell everybody about it. It's there, it's happening. I

435
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 2: love to see it. And like a long time ago

436
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 2: used to come on the show, you would talk about

437
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 2: polyamory and dating, you know, dating life and all that stuff,

438
00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 2: and I feel like all of that was just a

439
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 2: precursor to to now. And so you were It's like

440
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 2: you were playing the field. You're playing a game. You're

441
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 2: playing any reening mining low maybe until you pick your one,

442
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 2: and then you were good to go at that. I

443
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 2: feel like that's that's what happened, and I'm happy for

444
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 2: you and I'm glad. But I will say you sound

445
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 2: as happy and convicted today as you did, then.

446
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,880
Speaker 3: Yes, he does, and I love that for you.

447
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 2: Like I feel like I was talking. I talked to

448
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 2: Keith Mallley and it's like he's like, how can this

449
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 2: guy be so sure? Both ways? It was like I

450
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 2: had a friend in high school who I still to

451
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 2: this day think told me the most profound thing about

452
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 2: love of all time. And when she told me, I

453
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 2: told her it was stupid, and I regret that I

454
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 2: said that because I just I didn't know what I

455
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 2: was talking about. But I asked her. She was this

456
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 2: guy that I thought I was a loser, and I

457
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 2: was like, do you love him? Because I was like, like,

458
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 2: before I say anything to like, what is it about

459
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 2: this guy? And she goes, I love him for what

460
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 2: I know love to be. And I was like, that

461
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 2: is the dumbest thing I heard in my life, And

462
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,439
Speaker 2: now like, that is the truest thing I heard in

463
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 2: my life. Everybody, just in that moment you love the

464
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 2: person in the what you know of love and not

465
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 2: in that time.

466
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, because love grows and evolves and changes as

467
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 5: you do.

468
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just thought that was But yeah, I thought

469
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 2: it was stupid at the time. But no, really, yeah

470
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 2: I was wrong.

471
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, I it's you know, before I met Renie,

472
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 1: before you've had any experience, you know, before you've eaten

473
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: a Kiwi, before you've done a psychedelic, before you've heard

474
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 1: a certain song, like you have no idea what you're missing.

475
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 1: You have no idea, like nothing is absent from your

476
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,360
Speaker 1: life experience. You know you can live to the fullest,

477
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 1: But I do think that the commonality between me before me,

478
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 1: when I was in open relationships, me, when I was

479
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 1: talking about open this a lot, when I was poly yammory,

480
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 1: I would yamor and I I think I was confident

481
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: that I've a joke that I tell sometimes is I'm

482
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: very confident right up until somebody says, are you sure that?

483
00:23:56,080 --> 00:24:00,679
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, who said anything? But I am, you know,

484
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 1: for better or for worse. And I'm aware of this.

485
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 1: But like I do have strong I fall in love quickly,

486
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,760
Speaker 1: you know, when I've when I've been single, like I've

487
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 1: like this person, Like that was like an ongoing like

488
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 1: joke with my friends, Like I think I met the person,

489
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: you know, and it would just.

490
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 4: Be because I really love.

491
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just very fortunate. I'm very grateful. I

492
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 1: And when may I think I've told you? I bet

493
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,120
Speaker 1: I've told you about this this safe that I have

494
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:32,199
Speaker 1: from childhood. That's like it's just oh cool. I have

495
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 1: this little safe. It's like you know, a child safe.

496
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,119
Speaker 1: So it has a dial that has numbers. But you

497
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 1: know how most safes you're like you turn it left

498
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: right left or right left right. This one has one

499
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: number that's all you turn it to the correct number

500
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 1: once and you hit the button, you pull down the lever,

501
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: and it pops open a child's safe, right, So you

502
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: don't even need to know the number. If you know

503
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: it's a safe with one combination, you just hold down

504
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: the button right and they spin the dial, spin the

505
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 1: die well, and then it will pop open when you

506
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: get to the right place. And so I think about

507
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: that metaphorically with respect to I think they're myself, and

508
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: I think y'all selves, and I think there's a lot

509
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,119
Speaker 1: of people that I meet in life, fellow artists, fellow

510
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 1: kind hearted, open, compassionate, loving people who are basically metaphorically

511
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 1: holding down the open button on your heart. And so

512
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: when you meet and the combination is another person who's

513
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,320
Speaker 1: doing that. So when you two, you know, when I

514
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: meet you, when you meet someone, like I'm sure you

515
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: have these experiences where you meet somebody and you're just like, oh,

516
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: it feels like we could talk forever. It feels like

517
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 1: I could know you, like I feel like I already

518
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,359
Speaker 1: do know you. It's because it's sort of like at

519
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: the beginning of Anna Karinina, they say, like happy families

520
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 1: are all happy in the same way, but unhappy families

521
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: are all unhappy in different ways, and so it's like

522
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 1: the closer to pure happiness love, Like the idea that

523
00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: I think somebody Victor Hugo might have said that every

524
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: one has like the light of God inside of them

525
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: or some kind of you know, God's spirit there, and

526
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: when you fall in love with somebody, it basically renders

527
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 1: the part of them, the external part invisible. So it's

528
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 1: just like game recognized game, light recognized light, God recognize God.

529
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 1: And so I feel that way, you know, with respect

530
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 1: to anyone and anything that I love, Like the first

531
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: time I did mushrooms, the first time I did ayahuasca,

532
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 1: the first time I met, you know, an ex girlfriend,

533
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 1: the first time I met my friend Liz Glazer, who

534
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 1: I met ten years ago on a show, and I'm like,

535
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 1: we're gonna be friends for life. And now it's ten

536
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 1: years later and she's one of my dearest friends. And

537
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,919
Speaker 1: so I do think that it's just you know, a

538
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: lot of the energy that I went into, like poly

539
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: romantic relationships in the past, now it's like poly platonic relationships.

540
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 1: Just that I'm like, I have to agree, I think

541
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,479
Speaker 1: in my life, Yeah, I think, uh.

542
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,640
Speaker 2: I feel like all love flows from the same source

543
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 2: and it just like it might it might like be

544
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 2: defined differently, but like it doesn't make that love like

545
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:05,399
Speaker 2: any less stronger, even though each relationship is different. And

546
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 2: I've always felt like that, like even like your friends

547
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 2: are relationships.

548
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 3: They are like I think people don't understand that.

549
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe it's America or something, but everything's so like

550
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 2: romanticized or sexualized people. But I'm like, no, it's that,

551
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 2: it's all relationships. Back in the day, I remember when

552
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 2: they used to be like the thing to say. Everyody

553
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 2: thought they were being so edgy to be like, hey man,

554
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,239
Speaker 2: I just be having like fuck buddies or whatever, Like

555
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. You ever tell your side

556
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,959
Speaker 2: chick to do? And I was like, that's a relationship, Like, no,

557
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,400
Speaker 2: we're not, We're not in a relationship. I was like, look,

558
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,239
Speaker 2: it's not really like a thing. I'm not telling you

559
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 2: have to marry the person. I'm just saying, you're in

560
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 2: a relationship with your boss, you're in a relationship with

561
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 2: the taxi driver. Like all this shit with us bumping

562
00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 2: into each other like emotional bumper cards, it just is

563
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 2: creating constant connections or whatever. It's not, you know, it's

564
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 2: it's more of a scientific term than like me trying

565
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 2: to like, you know, define it. Relating. Yes, I relate

566
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 2: to you. You.

567
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: That is a relation, and that is the ship of

568
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 1: relation is what we're all sailing on here. And yeah,

569
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 1: I think I do think that I used to be

570
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: like I think that, you know, in our society, like

571
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,639
Speaker 1: we think of friendships as lesser. But that's weird, like

572
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,200
Speaker 1: because people are like, are we just friends?

573
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:25,400
Speaker 2: Right? Yes?

574
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: Just the greatest connection kind of we're merely people who

575
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: love each other and are there for each other and

576
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: have each other's back and can call each other if

577
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: we have a lousy just friends like, oh no, I

578
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: got put in a friend zone.

579
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 4: What if you have who have no friends? You ever

580
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 4: think about?

581
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: I got upgraded from no friends?

582
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I love this zone.

583
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 4: All my friends.

584
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 5: Are Yes, Mike, I agree. Because when it comes to friendships,

585
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 5: let's say a friendship goes sour. People don't know how

586
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 5: to handle it sometimes and you have to go through

587
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 5: a morning of the friendship. You know, because it was

588
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 5: like you, like you say, it was a relationship, y'all

589
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 5: had like a connection, you had a bond so you

590
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 5: have to go through the process of that bond no

591
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 5: longer being there, and people only think about that as

592
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 5: like a sexual relationship, you know what I mean, like

593
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 5: a spouse or something like that. But sometimes your friends

594
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 5: are just as important as your spouse or your significant

595
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 5: other others because you need somebody to talk to and

596
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 5: communicate outside of your significant other, and sometimes people don't

597
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 5: understand that you need somebody else that you can talk to.

598
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 2: I think also the Internet introduced us all to the

599
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 2: fact that like friendship relationships are also real relationships because

600
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 2: it also introduces all the ghosting as a concept, yes,

601
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 2: and ghosting like it hurts, well, you're like, I thought

602
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 2: that was my friend that I have not heard from

603
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 2: them in a while, and that but in order for

604
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 2: it to hurt, you have to admit there was something

605
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 2: there that was the bond feeling real.

606
00:29:58,400 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 6: You know.

607
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 2: So I think that's that's such an interesting perspective on it. Mike. Also,

608
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 2: I believe I was listening to you on Mary Hula

609
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 2: Hans show and either there it was Keith Keith Maley

610
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 2: Keith and a Girls show. But I think you talked

611
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 2: about how you had a religious experience after doing like psychedelics,

612
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,720
Speaker 2: Like you felt like you were more the atheist before,

613
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 2: but after the psychedelics, you're like, there's something out there.

614
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 2: What was the psychedelic? Like, what's the god drug? What's

615
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 2: the one?

616
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:33,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I would say for me, there's two that

617
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: I've had experiences like that with the first one was

618
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: mushrooms psilocybin, and then the second one was ayahuasca. And

619
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 1: so it was like about ten years apart, starting like

620
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: when I was twenty five, I did mushrooms for the

621
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 1: first time, and I just had an understanding, like in

622
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: one way, nothing changed, you know, but I was able

623
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: to It's sort of like when when things are you know,

624
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: when you look at like the the cube where you

625
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: can't tell is that the way it's facing or is

626
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: that the way it's facing, Like if you just make

627
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: you know, if you draw a cube with squares and

628
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 1: connect the lines, it's like an optical illusion where you're like,

629
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: is it facing this way or that way? Or you know,

630
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: is it a duck or a rabbit, whatever your illusion

631
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 1: of choice. Like in the I think that before I

632
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: did mushrooms, I was looking at it one way. I'm like,

633
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: it's a duck, and then like when I did mushrooms,

634
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: it was like, or maybe it also could be a rabbit,

635
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, it is a rabbit. It's a rabbit.

636
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 1: And I wasn't wrong that it was a duck. It's

637
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 1: the same I'm looking at the same thing. I'm looking

638
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: at the same world, but like my eyes have changed,

639
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: my brain has changed, my insides have changed, my consciousness,

640
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: and so I felt like the language like when I

641
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: first did mushrooms, I feel like the language shifted where

642
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, yeah, like we're all connected, which

643
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 1: is true, I mean scientifically as well. We all came

644
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,440
Speaker 1: from like the same source. Our molecules are constantly shifting.

645
00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 1: We're all made of the same stardust from you know,

646
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 1: you can do it with science, but it's simpler to me,

647
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: like we're all one nailed it and.

648
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 4: Buddhist paradigm, like we're we're there.

649
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 1: And before before I did uh psychedelics, before I did mushrooms,

650
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: the first time I ever tell you about there's a

651
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 1: book by a man named Raymond Smullian.

652
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 2: Uh. He wrote.

653
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: He wrote a lot of books. One of them was

654
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 1: the first one I ever found, was called this book

655
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 1: needs no title.

656
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yes, we talked about it special.

657
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, So that was the one that before before I'd

658
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,440
Speaker 1: done Mushrooms, there was a story in it that talked

659
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: about like mysticism and enlightenment basically, and I was like,

660
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: I know those words, but I don't have I don't

661
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 1: know what they attached to. And then after I did Mushrooms,

662
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, they attached to anything, to everything,

663
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: to this experience of you know, of presence, of mindfulness,

664
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 1: of of being here and being aware and being like, oh,

665
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 1: like I'm I'm talking to you, I'm communing with you,

666
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 1: Like this is a relationship, This is a connection, This

667
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 1: is a communion of sorts, and it just like I guess,

668
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: gave me like a different perspective and I like started

669
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: using different language where like I don't claim to know,

670
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: you know, anything outside of my own experience. I don't

671
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 1: know what what dying specifically feels like. Though I hear

672
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: it's like what an ayahuasca trip is like, but I

673
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 1: haven't I've done anyasa.

674
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 2: I heard it's like bombing on stage I heard of

675
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 2: It's like when that's what I've heard, that's the same thing,

676
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 2: just boom. The afterlife is walking out in shame. I

677
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 2: think it's I think it's interesting though, because I like

678
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 2: I've I would say, uh, I'm probably closer to like

679
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 2: maybe agnostic or something. But I feel like it's as

680
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 2: insane to think you know exactly what's gonna happen and

681
00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 2: exactly why everything is happening as it is to just

682
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 2: be like, none of this is all of this is

683
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 2: just coincidence. Both sound crazy to me. Like sometimes I really, like,

684
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:10,919
Speaker 2: as corny as it is, I really will be looking

685
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 2: at a fucking tree and be like, how the fuck,

686
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 2: Like so the tree does the pollen, but only the

687
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,960
Speaker 2: bees can do the flowers. We wouldn't even eat if

688
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 2: the bees weren't here, like.

689
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 3: If we couldn't breathe without the oxygen from the tree.

690
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 2: Like like I'm like, somebody's somewhere much smarter than me

691
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 2: even made this up or something, because it's just too

692
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 2: I play video games where I've had to like do

693
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 2: the sims or something, and I was like, to these

694
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 2: characters in this game, I'm basically their god. And if

695
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,640
Speaker 2: I lived in this world, I'd be like, somebody's doing

696
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 2: these things. This stuff makes too much sense.

697
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 1: Things that Alan Watts said that you reminded me of

698
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 1: one is the idea that a carpenter can make Some

699
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: can make a chair out of a tree, you know,

700
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:07,239
Speaker 1: but nobody makes wood, like nobody makes the tree. Like

701
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,160
Speaker 1: the tree just is, you know, and then you can

702
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,360
Speaker 1: make things out of it. That's like reality is like

703
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 1: we're not creating anything. We're just curating it and moving

704
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: it around and all that stuff. And the other thing

705
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: on the subject of like both being crazy, like the

706
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 1: idea to know one hundred percent that it is or

707
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: it isn't. That's the thing. It's the knowing one hundred percent.

708
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 1: That is the weird part. Alan Watson. There's a Buddhist

709
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 1: teacher who once was asked do you believe in God?

710
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,640
Speaker 1: And he said if you do, I don't, and if

711
00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 1: you don't, I do, And that I feel like is

712
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 1: a beautiful.

713
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:44,840
Speaker 4: That teacher was just a jerk.

714
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 2: He was like, I.

715
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:51,359
Speaker 1: Actually don't even work at this school. You just passing by,

716
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: Like I mean, everyone can be a teacher, you know,

717
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: They're like, are you a teacher if you're a student.

718
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 2: I am not.

719
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 1: But I think that for for real, Like I love

720
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 1: when people have strong opinions because then it really allows

721
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 1: me to you know, if somebody is like super loud,

722
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 1: then I'd be like, wow, that's really loud. I'm gonna

723
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 1: be aware of that and be a little quieter. But

724
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:20,000
Speaker 1: if somebody's super quiet, like, oh, I'm gonna I'm not that,

725
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 1: you know, Like we all know ourselves in relation to

726
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 1: what's going on around us, to what other people are like.

727
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 1: And so I do feel like, you know, I used

728
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: to be like a super hardcore atheist and now that

729
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: kind of super hardcore atheist I had. I had one

730
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 1: on my podcast earlier today, a super funny comedian, but

731
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 1: who's just like science only, science only logic. Yes, there

732
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 1: are things we don't know, but that doesn't mean that

733
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 1: we can't know them. Doesn't mean that somebody doesn't know them.

734
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,200
Speaker 2: We might know them.

735
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: We can know them, No need to bring anything outside.

736
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 1: Like he's like, yeah, it's weird. It's definitely weird.

737
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 2: Like that's a lot of faith you're putting in signs,

738
00:36:59,440 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 2: and I'm.

739
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 1: Just he believes that you that things can be figured out,

740
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: and things can be figured out, but everything eventually just

741
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: like surrender and be like, ah, that's that's fine.

742
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 2: I feel like I live in a state of I

743
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 2: feel like I live in a state of I don't know,

744
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 2: could be like like like whatever. It's like I tell

745
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 2: my friends in basketball, we love we're big basketball fans here.

746
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 2: But in basketball there's always this debate who's the grails,

747
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 2: who's the goat? Who's the goat? Is it Lebron James

00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 2: Neither one of them have the most rings or whatever? Right,

751
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,920

Speaker 2: the greatest in that moment, they can be the greatest.

762
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,759

770
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 2: don't really matter, because fucking.

771
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 1: I have I have three three thoughts for you. Two

772
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,320
Speaker 1: of them are jokes, and one of them is real.

773
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 1: And the jokes are real too, but uh, I'll.

774
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:55,120
Speaker 2: Be guessing, you know which is where it's gonna be, like,

775
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 2: do all three? Karen, Karen, you guess you guess the

776
00:38:58,120 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 2: jokes and the truth.

777
00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 1: Mike, Okay, So this is I actually haven't heard back

778
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 1: from either Lebron or Michael Jordan recently.

779
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 2: They goatsted me.

780
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,280
Speaker 4: So that's true.

781
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 2: That's one of the true ones. This is a thought

782
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 2: that I'm really excited to have had. Rod. You said that.

783
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: You've been You're like, I don't know, I don't know,

784
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,240
Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, and I think that.

785
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 2: A lot of people.

786
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 1: The way that I was before was like I needed

787
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: to know, and it was regimented, and there's people like

788
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 1: this is what it is, and it sounds almost painfully constricting,

789
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 1: like it's they're like, ow no, and they're like, I

790
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know. It's just it's very similar.

791
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 1: All you got to do is like relax little, I

792
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 1: don't know.

793
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 2: I don't know.

794
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 1: And then on the subject of you know, who is

795
00:39:55,160 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: the greatest, it's like there is clearly no objective answer.

796
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,359
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe it's not clear to some people, but

797
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,399
Speaker 1: or maybe it's clear that some people are like it's

798
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 1: an objective answer, But in common I think it's so.

799
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 4: Much clearer in art, where where art is at its core, not.

800
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: A competition, But there are still people that are like

801
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 1: who's on your Mount Rushmore? Who are your greatest, who's

802
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 1: your top five, who's your top ten? And like everyone

803
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:21,760
Speaker 1: can have a different one. You could have a different

804
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: one every day, every hour, every minute. You could have

805
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: your experience like with Lebron and Michael Jordan and be like, oh,

806
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 1: I'm watching Maria bamfor right now, she is the best.

807
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: I'm watching Reggie Watts right now, he is the best.

808
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 1: I'm watching a Parnan on Sarla she is the best.

809
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: I'm watching Sarah Stilverman, she is the best. And like

810
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 1: I like the phrasing like, there's no one better, Like

811
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: there's no one better than Maria Bamford at what she does.

812
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: There's no one better than Gary Goleman at what he does.

813
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 1: There's no one better than Mitch Hedberg at what he did,

814
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,839
Speaker 1: There's no one better than Emo Phillips at what he does.

815
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:55,839
Speaker 1: And truly it seems to me obviously in basketball, you

816
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,279
Speaker 1: can tell that it's a game. There's a score, you

817
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: can but the artistry of it, which I think is

818
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 1: what's being compared, like the and the.

819
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,280
Speaker 2: More the more you love it, the more you realize

820
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 2: that those things are arbitrary too, Like wins and losses

821
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 2: are arbitrary because someone can twist an ankle, and now

822
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 2: your team doesn't have the second best player. And so

823
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 2: the thing we all thought we were witnessing, these two

824
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 2: teams at their best, are no longer at their best,

825
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,799
Speaker 2: and people will leave that and go some people will

826
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 2: leave it and go, well, even with the second best

827
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,319
Speaker 2: player being hurt, they lost and he's no longer the

828
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 2: best player in the world to me, and some people

829
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 2: will leave and go he didn't have a second best player.

830
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 2: How the fun is he supposed to do? It matterthew

831
00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,840
Speaker 2: the best in the world. So it's even that is arbitrary.

832
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:48,240
Speaker 2: But I think a lot of stuff could be approached

833
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,839
Speaker 2: a little less rigidly. I still I think a lot

834
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:55,839
Speaker 2: of my political allyship stuff is more about me going

835
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:59,799
Speaker 2: I don't know than it is me being like I

836
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:02,799
Speaker 2: know for a fact, Like, uh, when something like the

837
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 2: first time I was introduced to the concept of trans

838
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is to be trans. I'm

839
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 2: sounds like it could be a thing. And what do

840
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 2: we gotta do to make sure that your life is easy?

841
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:15,719
Speaker 7: Like?

842
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:17,840
Speaker 2: Why would I want to make your life harder?

843
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 3: What?

844
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:18,520
Speaker 8: So?

845
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 2: What people aren't supporting you? It's your body, it's your autonomy.

846
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:23,319
Speaker 2: What are what are we doing?

847
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:23,840
Speaker 5: Uh?

848
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:24,239
Speaker 3: Oh?

849
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 2: I I remember when I was growing up it was

850
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 2: people were like, the people aren't actually gay. I was like,

851
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 2: I don't know, but if they want to do it

852
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 2: in they're adults, I don't. I don't why would they

853
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 2: do Why would it matter to me if it was

854
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 2: real to them? Or not, but I and it's like, so,

855
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 2: you know people are gay. I don't know. I don't

856
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 2: know what the DNA. I'm not a scientist. I just

857
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:49,240
Speaker 2: know that it's fucked up the ostracize somebody for being different. Karen,

858
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 2: I haven't forgotten. Did you pick Mike's two truths and

859
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:54,920
Speaker 2: two jokes and the truth?

860
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 3: I think the ghost was a joke okay?

861
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 2: And that truths okay? Well it's two jut center truth.

862
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,280
Speaker 2: So you clearly missed.

863
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 3: Oh I missed one?

864
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:11,399
Speaker 2: Who missed one? But they also in jest?

865
00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're all basically non binary. So any

866
00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:16,839
Speaker 1: guest you got was the right one?

867
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 2: Who is the better one? Was it?

868
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 1: Was it Karen for answering correctly or was it Rod

869
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 1: for pointing out that Karen didn't answer directly?

870
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 4: We're both you know. There's this old joke.

871
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,800
Speaker 1: I don't know where it came from, but a judge

872
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:33,280
Speaker 1: is in his courtroom and one lawyer makes a point,

873
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 1: and the judge says, you're right, and then the other

874
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 1: lawyer says, but what about this? And the judge says

875
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 1: you're right, and then somebody in the audience goes, Judge,

876
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 1: they can't both be right.

877
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,359
Speaker 2: And he goes, you're right, So.

878
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 4: Every everyone is right. I do appreciate that.

879
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,360
Speaker 1: I mean, my goal is to tell the truth in

880
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 1: a fun way or or find find the truth in

881
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 1: fun things, or find the fun and true things.

882
00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 4: That's that's it, to do both of them.

883
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,879

00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 2: I'm not kissing a girl anymore. He recently revealed in

925
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 2: the article In an interview with The Daily Mail, noting

926
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 2: that it was a bit of a discussion in his house.

927
00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:33,200
Speaker 3: Got cooties.

928
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,920
Speaker 2: He says, when I turned sixty, I had a conversation

929
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,439
Speaker 2: with my wife. I said, look, I can still play

930
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,919
Speaker 2: basketball with the boys. I play with the twenty five

931
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,279
Speaker 2: year old guys. I can still hang them in shape.

932
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 2: But I'm twenty five and I'm eighty five years old.

933
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,399
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter how many granole bars you eat. That's

934
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 2: a real number. So I guess he's saying, like, as

935
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:57,919
Speaker 2: he's aging, regardless of how beautiful and attractor we all

936
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 2: think he is, he wants to move out of the

937
00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 2: romantic leading man role. He said, I'm sixty three years old.

938
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:07,920
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to compete with twenty five year old

939
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 2: leading men. That's not my job. I'm not doing romantic

940
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 2: films anymore.

941
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,880
Speaker 1: Uh you know, I mean, I understand what he's saying.

942
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: It's interesting because you can have a romance movie between

943
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 1: two people in their sixties or seventies or eighties, Like

944
00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:28,799
Speaker 1: I think it's good. Yeah for a sixty three year

945
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:34,719
Speaker 1: old man kiss girls. Absolutely, stay away from girls and

946
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 1: call adult women women. But yeah, if you don't, if

947
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 1: you don't want to go for it. I also, did

948
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 1: you guys see his.

949
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:43,320
Speaker 4: New movie j Kelly?

950
00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 2: Not yet? Not yet? Is it good?

951
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,480
Speaker 1: I really, I really liked it. It's Reenie and I

952
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 1: watched it. Then I have a couple of really good

953
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:55,319
Speaker 1: friends who are also like both men like either are

954
00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 1: about to or just turn fifty, and they're like, you know,

955
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,839
Speaker 1: it's about a man like you know later in his

956
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:06,200
Speaker 1: life and career, and so perhaps it might resonate more,

957
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:06,920
Speaker 1: you know.

958
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 2: I can't can't speak it like.

959
00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 1: I'm forty seven. I don't think that's why I liked it,

960
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:16,840
Speaker 1: but maybe who knows. But it's just afterwards I thought

961
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,879
Speaker 1: about it a lot, like it is unlike a lot

962
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 1: of movies, like story structure wise, it like it's not

963
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,400
Speaker 1: just purely I don't want to spoil too much, but

964
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:30,520
Speaker 1: it's it made me like think about it, you know

965
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:33,319
Speaker 1: how like certain great works of art, like literature like

966
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:36,200
Speaker 1: will teach you how to read it because every writer

967
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 1: has a different style and you kind of have to

968
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:41,160
Speaker 1: take a few pages or chapters to be like.

969
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 4: What even is happening here?

970
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 1: So I feel like the movie was like that, and

971
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:48,760
Speaker 1: Clooney Clooney was great Adam Sandler was really great. Everyone

972
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:52,520
Speaker 1: in it was great. Yeah, And did he kiss any

973
00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:53,320
Speaker 1: girls in the movie?

974
00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:54,480
Speaker 2: Maybe?

975
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't want to spoil anything, but it's I

976
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,000
Speaker 1: think he's I'm I'm pro this is as far as

977
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,800
Speaker 1: what is possible. When y'all bring up white people news,

978
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:06,640
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is pretty good white people news.

979
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 2: It's pretty good. I love White people News is such

980
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,960
Speaker 2: a like beautiful segment because it is most of the time,

981
00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:17,240
Speaker 2: not all the time, but most of the time it's

982
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 2: a departure from the serious political, like racist stuff that

983
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,399
Speaker 2: we talk about on the show. So I love white

984
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 2: people news because it's such a like breath of fresh

985
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 2: air and it's like, oh, this is what white people

986
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:31,840
Speaker 2: are concerned with. Not the most important things in the world,

987
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,799
Speaker 2: not the most but I need that fluff, you know.

988
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 2: And George Coloney is saying I'm no longer kissing girls?

989
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:40,640
Speaker 2: Is that really worthy of a news article?

990
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:40,759
Speaker 5: Like?

991
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:41,880
Speaker 2: Is that breaking news?

992
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 5: Was?

993
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,759
Speaker 2: Was I walking in the park and I felt it

994
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:46,080
Speaker 2: in the air and I stopped and I was like,

995
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:51,040
Speaker 2: George Colooney's not kissing girls anymore? No, But I do

996
00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:54,759
Speaker 2: enjoy knowing something so trivial that means something to so

997
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:57,959
Speaker 2: many people and good luck with him. I do feel

998
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,719
Speaker 2: like he sounds a little arrogant because it feels like

999
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 2: what he's saying is something like, I could take these

1000
00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,319
Speaker 2: twenty five year old guys jobs if I want it.

1001
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,279
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, I don't want to, no more than

1002
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:08,759
Speaker 3: Yalco had them the job.

1003
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 2: I decided that I would go ahead and let the

1004
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 2: other handsome men have a few jobs. I'm gonna get

1005
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:16,040
Speaker 2: me I quit.

1006
00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:16,719
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1007
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:17,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1008
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know, you guys watched Friends, but

1009
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 1: there's like an episode where Chandler and Joey have like

1010
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 1: a chicken and a duck as pets, and he goes

1011
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,839
Speaker 1: Joey is like, I've trained the duck and he's then

1012
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 1: he goes like, just sit there and be white, Like, look,

1013
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:40,280
Speaker 1: if you just tell it to do what it's doing,

1014
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,360
Speaker 1: then absolutely, And so I think that's what George Clooney

1015
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,040
Speaker 1: might be doing with his career.

1016
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:46,759
Speaker 2: You may be one hundred percent right.

1017
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 1: He's like, I'd like to have roles where I don't

1018
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:53,000
Speaker 1: compete with these twenty five year old men.

1019
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 2: For me, that's my jot, my preference. I really hate

1020
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,000
Speaker 2: to turn around. I have to tell Ryan Gosling. He

1021
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 2: can't be kenned. I mean, come on, let them have

1022
00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:08,840
Speaker 2: their turn.

1023
00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 1: But also, uh, the to the point that it's not

1024
00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:16,800
Speaker 1: like why is this news, It's like it's really interesting

1025
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:19,880
Speaker 1: in that it's not that interesting, but it's because of

1026
00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:23,920
Speaker 1: how famous he is that no like to be to

1027
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,640
Speaker 1: be to get success as a comedian. Like maybe we

1028
00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:29,400
Speaker 1: talked about this like on the Comedy Central roasts, you know,

1029
00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 1: like before Anthony Jesselneck or Nicki Glazer or Amy Schumer

1030
00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 1: were as like big as they became, they were like

1031
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 1: newcomers to the world on those roasts, like there were

1032
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:42,920
Speaker 1: people would make jokes about them on the roast to

1033
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:45,080
Speaker 1: be like who are you and why are you even here?

1034
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,919
Speaker 1: And the answer was because we're funny. That's the only

1035
00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 1: reason we're here.

1036
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 4: You're only here.

1037
00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:52,520
Speaker 1: Because you're famous. We're only here because we're funny. But

1038
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:56,480
Speaker 1: so you if you're not famous, then you need to

1039
00:51:56,560 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 1: be good. But if you are famous, then you don't

1040
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:03,680
Speaker 1: need to do anything. And it's news and people will

1041
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:06,040
Speaker 1: I love it and want to learn about it the.

1042
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:08,439
Speaker 2: Best kind of news because like you know, they don't

1043
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,120
Speaker 2: have to be upset by this. No, No, George Clean

1044
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,080
Speaker 2: did this like, this isn't him telling like the America

1045
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:15,960
Speaker 2: like you're gonna have to get a new president. That

1046
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:17,959
Speaker 2: was scary. This is much better.

1047
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,000
Speaker 3: I rather you do this. This is your lane.

1048
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:24,560
Speaker 2: Speaking of which you just brought up Amy Schumer, I did.

1049
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,200
Speaker 2: She made white people news this week. Okay.

1050
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:27,919
Speaker 4: Wow.

1051
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:31,719
Speaker 2: Her and her husband, Chris Fisher are divorcing after seven

1052
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:35,279
Speaker 2: years of marriage, and a statement they released called it

1053
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:38,520
Speaker 2: a cohesive split. Yeah.

1054
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:39,919
Speaker 3: I remember you telling you about this.

1055
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:45,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like, I feel like the new conscious uncompany conscious,

1056
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:49,399
Speaker 2: but let's update the firm where we were doing conscious uncouplings,

1057
00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:53,239
Speaker 2: but now we got some new shit cohesive split. Don't

1058
00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,360
Speaker 2: look up the definition. Okay, don't look up the definition

1059
00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:59,400
Speaker 2: of both of those words because you will feel that

1060
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:00,480
Speaker 2: they are into medical.

1061
00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:03,319
Speaker 3: But the vibe.

1062
00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 2: The concept, I think I understand it is like we

1063
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:08,560
Speaker 2: got together and decided to break up.

1064
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:12,560
Speaker 1: It's I think that's a perfect way to put it.

1065
00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 1: And you know what, I really like this, like you know,

1066
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:21,040
Speaker 1: sort of euphemism escalator where it's like, yeah, it seems

1067
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,279
Speaker 1: like it means the thing that it meant before, like

1068
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:28,680
Speaker 1: you know, inamicable split was probably like the original one earlier,

1069
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:32,399
Speaker 1: But I like here's an analogy that I hope I

1070
00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 1: remember why I'm doing it at the end of it

1071
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:35,400
Speaker 1: after I start.

1072
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:38,240
Speaker 2: But uh, you know, I feel like this.

1073
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:42,840
Speaker 1: Is the the lore of of comedy want like rise

1074
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,240
Speaker 1: to success. Where like when I was starting out, Dane

1075
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,239
Speaker 1: Cook blew up on MySpace, and then everyone else tried

1076
00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:51,520
Speaker 1: to blow up on MySpace, but they couldn't because he

1077
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 1: already did it. And now everyone's It's like when one

1078
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 1: hundred years ago, like people were discovering, oh I got

1079
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,880
Speaker 1: an old Action Comics number one, Superman's first appearance.

1080
00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 2: Wow, you got that.

1081
00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:04,799
Speaker 1: Then everyone's like, now I will save all of the

1082
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:08,120
Speaker 1: comics forever, and because of the supply and demand, that

1083
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:10,680
Speaker 1: doesn't happen again. Now everyone just has a bunch of

1084
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:13,840
Speaker 1: comics that aren't worth thousands and thousands of dollars or

1085
00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:17,319
Speaker 1: whatever it is. And so Dane Cook figuring out how

1086
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,800
Speaker 1: to get big on MySpace was like doing a magic

1087
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 1: spell that when after you try to do it, also

1088
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:24,720
Speaker 1: you're like, well somebody already used that one.

1089
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:27,120
Speaker 4: We're like like, oh, I know what the winning this is.

1090
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 1: Actually, I think the perfect analogy to I just discovered

1091
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:32,840
Speaker 1: the perfect analogy, and I'm going to record it for

1092
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:36,359
Speaker 1: myself on this as well, that Dane Cook succeeding on

1093
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 1: MySpace and then everyone else trying to do it is

1094
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:43,160
Speaker 1: like Dane won the lottery of millions of dollars and

1095
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:45,279
Speaker 1: then everyone else was like, I'm going to buy a

1096
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 1: ticket with the same number.

1097
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:49,520
Speaker 4: And then but I already won that one.

1098
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:53,320
Speaker 1: So with you and everyone else is now splitting whatever

1099
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:56,400
Speaker 1: that if he won fifty million dollars, now fifty million

1100
00:54:56,400 --> 00:55:00,359
Speaker 1: people each won a dollar trying to do what he did.

1101
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:02,560
Speaker 2: And then so we're like, but he did it on MySpace.

1102
00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:06,040
Speaker 1: Then you know, Rob Delaney does it on Twitter, and

1103
00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 1: Bo Burnham does it on YouTube, and Matt Riife does

1104
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,239
Speaker 1: it with crowd work videos on TikTok, and like everyone's like, oh,

1105
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:12,839
Speaker 1: do that one?

1106
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 4: Do that one?

1107
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 1: When the real kind of goes back to your what

1108
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:19,080
Speaker 1: are we teaching kids in school? Are we taking them

1109
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 1: facts to memorize or manners of learning ways to do

1110
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:25,919
Speaker 1: it instead of just being like, do what that person did?

1111
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:26,319
Speaker 3: Well?

1112
00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:30,360
Speaker 1: What they did was innovate, so you can't copy them innovating.

1113
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 1: If you want to innovate like them, you have to innovate,

1114
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:37,279
Speaker 1: like you don't do it like them, do it like

1115
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:40,959
Speaker 1: you do you know that the childish Gambino lyric, don't

1116
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:41,880
Speaker 1: be mad because I'm.

1117
00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:49,399
Speaker 2: Doing me better. Yes I love yes, so.

1118
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:53,319
Speaker 1: That I feel like that the conscious uncompling, the new

1119
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,560
Speaker 1: the Amy Schumer. They're like, look, they did conscious uncoupling,

1120
00:55:56,600 --> 00:56:01,480
Speaker 1: they did amicable splits. We're unique, individ like, yes, we're

1121
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:03,400
Speaker 1: human beings. We were in a relationship. Now we're in

1122
00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 1: a different kind of relationship, a separated relationship, a separate

1123
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:09,000
Speaker 1: relationship and not.

1124
00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:11,279
Speaker 4: But this is our own thing. So we're using our

1125
00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 4: own language, our new.

1126
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:16,120
Speaker 1: Magic spell that we are casting to demonstrate to people.

1127
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:18,680
Speaker 4: They're like, love is that? Like it's like it, but

1128
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:20,920
Speaker 4: it's its own new thing, like you're it.

1129
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:25,360
Speaker 2: Because like how many ways are they to say? It

1130
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:28,520
Speaker 2: is essentially the same thing that other divorce couples went through.

1131
00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 2: Either it was a divorce where you guys were like,

1132
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,520
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna like publicly hate you and do all

1133
00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:37,480
Speaker 2: this like dramatic stuff, or it's the one where you're like,

1134
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:39,359
Speaker 2: I am right, and if you are, you're probably not

1135
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:43,120
Speaker 2: releasing a statement of anything like not together. It's it's

1136
00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:46,759
Speaker 2: like a fuck that person's statement. Right, So there you're

1137
00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:49,799
Speaker 2: going through what everyone's going through. So yeah, changing the

1138
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,080
Speaker 2: words of and being like it's a cohesive split. I

1139
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:55,359
Speaker 2: was like, Oh, I see you ain't schumwros. Someone did

1140
00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:57,919
Speaker 2: the research. They did a little something different on them

1141
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 2: and shout out to her. In her statement, she said,

1142
00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:04,360
Speaker 2: blah blah blah, Chris and I have made I'm not

1143
00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:06,920
Speaker 2: making that up. That's what she wrote. Blah blah blah.

1144
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,239
Speaker 2: Chris and I have made the difficult decision to end

1145
00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:11,040
Speaker 2: our marriage at to seven years. We love each other

1146
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:13,160
Speaker 2: very much and will continue to focus on raising our son.

1147
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:15,479
Speaker 2: We would appreciate people respecting our privacy at this time.

1148
00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:19,120
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah. Not because I dropped some LB's and

1149
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:23,800
Speaker 2: thought I could bag of a basket s basket, and

1150
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:29,440
Speaker 2: not because he's hot, a hot James Beard winning chef

1151
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:32,120
Speaker 2: who can still pull some hot tail, amicable and all

1152
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:35,480
Speaker 2: that love and respect for family forever. There's nothing ugly.

1153
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:39,280
Speaker 2: It's a cohesive split. They've just been finalizing a few things,

1154
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,240
Speaker 2: said the pir exclusively told a source closer to the

1155
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:46,560
Speaker 2: para told people so that hilarious. Yeah, also like that

1156
00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,720
Speaker 2: you can be famous enough to be like I need

1157
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:50,640
Speaker 2: a source to reach out to people to let them

1158
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:54,800
Speaker 2: know the deep the details on my divorce, Like, hey,

1161
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,640
Speaker 2: be people the people and like the people know it's

1162
00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:03,960
Speaker 2: not it's not what the people think.

1163
00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:10,120
Speaker 1: Yes, I like, you know the idea of unconscious or sorry,

1164
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:14,520
Speaker 1: it's conscious uncoupling that you know is being like conscious

1165
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,040
Speaker 1: as you uncouple. I feel like a lot of couples

1166
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 1: are just like unconsciously coupling, you know what I mean,

1167
00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:21,720
Speaker 1: They're just like, we're coupling.

1168
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 2: What are you talking about? I don't know, but don't

1169
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 2: know what's going on.

1170
00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 3: You just look, oh you're still here.

1171
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:35,720
Speaker 1: Like I like the consciousness, I like the cohesiveness. I

1172
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:39,840
Speaker 1: wish them well. I'm sorry for the difficulty, but that's man.

00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:44,880
Speaker 2: Like, you want to hear all the jobs that got bonuses.

1195
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 2: This is because it's going to tell you how big

1196
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:54,200
Speaker 2: the tour is, Okay. Truck drivers, yeah, caterers, instrument texts,

1197
00:59:54,480 --> 01:00:05,080
Speaker 2: the merch team, lighting, sound production staff and assistance, carpenters, dancers, banned, security, choreographer, pyrotechnics, riggers,

1198
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:09,040
Speaker 2: hair makeup, wardrobe. By the way, those are all separate

1199
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:12,560
Speaker 2: physical therapists and video team members.

1200
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:12,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1201
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:16,280
Speaker 5: Hair, God damn hair makeup and wardrobe. Literally they could

1202
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,440
Speaker 5: be the same but literally those are probably.

1203
01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:19,400
Speaker 3: Three different departments.

1204
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:23,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's ghost. I just looked up her net worth.

1205
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:28,560
Speaker 1: An article from two days ago says that according to

1206
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:33,840
Speaker 1: Forbes's latest rankings, she is the world's richest female musician,

1207
01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:38,840
Speaker 1: just surpassed Rihanna. She now has a net worth of

1208
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:42,360
Speaker 1: one point six billion. And I don't know is that

1209
01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:44,600
Speaker 1: before or after she gave these bonuses, because that's going

1210
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:47,760
Speaker 1: to move that decimal plays to be one point four

1211
01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 1: or maybe it was one point eight.

1212
01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:51,000
Speaker 2: That is like, right, two.

1213
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:54,600
Speaker 1: Hundred million dollars is a lot of money. I mean,

1214
01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:58,080
Speaker 1: obviously a billion a half dollars is more money, but

1215
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,160
Speaker 1: percentage wise, it's a pretty And.

1216
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:05,640
Speaker 2: Like those online calculations are really more about evaluation, meaning

1217
01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:07,920
Speaker 2: like she might not have one point six billion in

1218
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 2: the bank, but all the stuff that she has or

1219
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 2: you know, her companies, her towards her, the merch house,

1220
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 2: her house. Right, So like a lot of times those

1221
01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,080
Speaker 2: numbers aren't even accurate. But what it makes me think

1222
01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:24,360
Speaker 2: about is how she's a billionaire and like is like

1223
01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:29,120
Speaker 2: I earned this from work as opposed to stealing people's shit.

1224
01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:31,919
Speaker 2: And then also I'm giving back the people who work

1225
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:35,120
Speaker 2: for me because and then some of my most powerful

1226
01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:37,960
Speaker 2: figures in the government right now are people who are billionaires,

1227
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:40,400
Speaker 2: who are literally like, how can I keep people from

1228
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 2: having money for their work? How do I stop the healthcare,

1229
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,959
Speaker 2: stop the benefits? And She's like, I don't have nearly

1230

01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:03,400

01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:05,280
Speaker 5: for some people like not tryn to find their whole

1237
01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:08,240
Speaker 5: life worths of their career is kind of getting to

1238
01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:10,240
Speaker 5: the point where you're able to do, like I said

1239
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:13,040
Speaker 5: Taylor Swift a Beyonce, I got a lady God God

1240
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 5: Rihanna like one of their shows, like some of them,

1241
01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:15,920
Speaker 5: that's their goal.

1242
01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:18,400
Speaker 3: And then you get it and you you do.

1243
01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 5: Your job, you sacrifice, you know, depend on how long

1244
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:24,680
Speaker 5: they touring, right, and things like that. And sometimes I

1245
01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:26,640
Speaker 5: look at these tours sometimes they doing like three in

1246
01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 5: four shows at different cities in like a week sometimes

1247
01:02:30,160 --> 01:02:33,680
Speaker 5: and so you know, and stuff right, and then depend

1248
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:35,400
Speaker 5: on and that's just the US tour.

1249
01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:36,680
Speaker 3: And then you ain't talking about.

1250
01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:40,080
Speaker 2: That overseas to my question that I would have had

1251
01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:42,200
Speaker 2: if I was there, And I wonder who was the

1252
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:46,880
Speaker 2: first to ask it, because it'll feel like a downer.

1253
01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:50,240
Speaker 2: But it's like after she says we're going, I'm giving

1254
01:02:50,240 --> 01:02:53,240
Speaker 2: one hundred and ninety seven million, it's like, oh, yeah, who,

1255
01:02:54,520 --> 01:03:00,880
Speaker 2: so how much is that per person? Are there?

1256
01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:06,520
Speaker 1: Did you see somebody posted online recently like they made

1257
01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:09,360
Speaker 1: a mistake and it was a really funny mistake that

1258
01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:14,000
Speaker 1: they're like, Elon Musk has like six hundred billion dollars now,

1259
01:03:14,160 --> 01:03:15,720
Speaker 1: is like and they're like, that means that he could

1260
01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:19,760
Speaker 1: give everyone on Earth a billion dollars and still have

1261
01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:23,439
Speaker 1: five hundred something billion dollars left. No, he could give

1262
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:26,320
Speaker 1: he could give six hundred people a billion dollars, or

1263
01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:31,960
Speaker 1: he could give everyone on Earth seventy five dollars, because

1264
01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:34,120
Speaker 1: six hundred billion divided by eight billion is the same

1265
01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:36,880
Speaker 1: as six hundred divided by eight But yeah, I mean,

1266
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:38,720
Speaker 1: I bet, I mean, how many people do you think

1267
01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:40,200
Speaker 1: are working on that tour?

1268
01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:43,760
Speaker 2: That's a right? Like I feel like my first thought

1269
01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:46,640
Speaker 2: would be like, so hopefully there's one hundred and ninety

1270
01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 2: seven of us, right, because yeah, it's like no, actually,

1271
01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:52,680
Speaker 2: there's a thousands of us that may just happen. It's like, okay,

1272
01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:54,280
Speaker 2: what's my cut. It's like when you hear that thing

1273
01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:57,840
Speaker 2: where it's like PayPal has a settlement settlement yeah, and

1274
01:03:57,880 --> 01:04:00,000
Speaker 2: you're like, ooh, I got an email to say PayPal,

1275
01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:01,560
Speaker 2: I owe me some money, and you click on it

1276
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:04,280
Speaker 2: and you're like, oh, come here, money, money, money. I

1277
01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:06,960
Speaker 2: heard you're gonna pay us seventy five million dollars. It's

1278
01:04:06,960 --> 01:04:09,600
Speaker 2: like seventy five million dollars divided about seventy five million people.

1279
01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:11,960
Speaker 2: It's like, oh, it's a dollar, Well, thank you anyway

1280
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:17,720
Speaker 2: for the dollar, I'll spend it wisely. Thanks.

1281
01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:23,800
Speaker 1: I think uh if Ai is correct, which you know,

1282
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:26,760
Speaker 1: that's a big if it does say that it's over

1283
01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:29,600
Speaker 1: one hundred people, but and it could be near two

1284
01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:33,080
Speaker 1: hundred or three hundred, so that's still that's still good.

1285
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:36,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh absolutely no, it's I mean, if it's two hundred,

01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:45,800
Speaker 2: groceries wrapped in impractical quantities like a slice of bread,

1321

01:07:24,520 --> 01:07:27,320
Speaker 1: it was like a porta potty and like that. Then

1336
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:31,160

Speaker 2: never been on for this segment before, but there's a

1364
01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:59,680
Speaker 2: segment we call gender wars, which I'll explain to you.

1365

Speaker 2: Outside, all right. Gender wars is when we find different,

1368
01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:28,519
Speaker 2: uh like posts from social media and stuff where people

1369
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:33,639
Speaker 2: are arguing over these sometimes made up scenario, sometimes real whatever,

1370
01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:37,960
Speaker 2: and it's normally something that pits men against women. Okay,

1371
01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:41,280
Speaker 2: now we judge them from zero to ten, but not

1372
01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:44,599

01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:57,599
Speaker 2: people in the comments are like, I think men are

1377
01:09:57,680 --> 01:10:00,479
Speaker 2: dumb or I think women are stupid. That's we're here

1378
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:04,760
Speaker 2: to judge. And today's contestant is just a woman in

Speaker 2: she's breaking up with me. I didn't even go out

1419
01:12:14,840 --> 01:12:15,719
Speaker 2: with her. It's crazy.

Speaker 7: They got it. They really got it.

1421
01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:20,719
Speaker 9: The moment you ask them for some money, it's a problem.

1422
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:24,840
Speaker 9: I ah this ah that, Like, why are you out

1423
01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:27,479

01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:32,439
Speaker 9: me fifteen hundred off the rip when I ask you, Oh, mab,

1425
01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:33,599
Speaker 9: can I have fifty hundred?

1426
01:12:33,760 --> 01:12:37,240
Speaker 7: Oh oh oh it's excuse. Oh yeah, yeah, I'm gonna

01:12:41,320 --> 01:12:42,080
Speaker 7: oh something.

1429
01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:45,679
Speaker 9: Came up and blah blah blah, like what I can't

1430
01:12:45,680 --> 01:12:48,360
Speaker 9: ask you for fifty hundred. Maybe my two car seats

1431
01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:50,839
Speaker 9: in the back together are over one thousand dollars.

1432
01:12:50,920 --> 01:12:52,519
Speaker 7: I can't ask you for fifty hundred.

1433
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:55,120
Speaker 2: Oh so she just said two car seats in the back,

1434
01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:57,160
Speaker 2: So that means she got at least two kids that

1435
01:12:57,280 --> 01:12:59,679
Speaker 2: are young enough to have to be in car seats.

1436
01:13:00,479 --> 01:13:04,439
Speaker 1: And I mean, I'm glad that she explained a little

1437
01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:06,799
Speaker 1: bit at the end, because up until that last moment

1438
01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:09,360
Speaker 1: when she mentioned the car seats, she's like it's like,

1439
01:13:09,439 --> 01:13:11,720
Speaker 1: you can't even just ask a black man that you're

1440
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:14,640
Speaker 1: dating for fifteen hundred dollars and he gives it to

1441
01:13:14,680 --> 01:13:17,599
Speaker 1: you like you're supposed to. Like every white man I've

1442
01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:21,559
Speaker 1: ever dated just will give me the fifteen like no complaint,

1443
01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,599
Speaker 1: Like it's such an a normal thing to be like

1444
01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:27,360
Speaker 1: rhy when you're in a relationship and your boyfriend just

1445
01:13:27,400 --> 01:13:29,440
Speaker 1: won't turn over the fifteen hundred.

01:13:29,200 --> 01:13:34,000
Speaker 4: Dollars the store, Like, what is that, lady wheel breaker?

1447
01:13:34,640 --> 01:13:37,760

Speaker 9: I'm so good, I'm so good, I'm so over it, Like,

Speaker 2: look at the conn because I like to look at

1457
01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:02,760
Speaker 2: the comments to see if it resonated.

1458
01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:04,559
Speaker 3: I know she got a lot of comments.

1459
01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:08,800
Speaker 2: What has three point two thousand replies and a bunch

1460
01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:13,160
Speaker 2: of quote tweets. The first one is an anime screenshot

01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:16,360
Speaker 2: that says, so get a job because fifte.

1462
01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:17,960
Speaker 5: Uh.

01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:21,000
Speaker 2: This is another lot of memes. This is Scooby Doode

Speaker 2: speech therapist, says, I missed the way I viewed the

Speaker 2: world before I knew too much about it. Good yeah,

Speaker 2: good for Scooby. Okay, you got you got rid of

1469
01:14:39,200 --> 01:14:41,479
Speaker 2: that speech impediment. Man probably took a lot of work.

01:14:43,760 --> 01:14:45,960
Speaker 2: What do you miss? Okay, so wait now we're doing

1471

1474
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:05,600
Speaker 2: I've watched I read too many of these when I

1475
01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 2: was a kid. I'm bad whatever, so lots of memes

1476
01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:13,839
Speaker 2: I require context. It's kind of weird that the context

1477
01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:15,559
Speaker 2: means are the weirdest ones because I feel like the

1478
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:18,679
Speaker 2: context is in the video. It's not really like a thing.

1479
01:15:18,800 --> 01:15:21,040
Speaker 2: Imagine not making your own bread to take care of

1480
01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:24,880
Speaker 2: yourself In Big twenty twenty five, Go Work says, So

1481
01:15:24,960 --> 01:15:26,920
Speaker 2: it looks like the men are the ones who took

1482
01:15:26,960 --> 01:15:28,920
Speaker 2: the bait to be upset. Begging is in our all

1483
01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:34,640
Speaker 2: time high. Stay over there, it ain't happening. Here's a

1484
01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:36,160
Speaker 2: picture of a white lady, but I don't think it's

1485
01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:38,360
Speaker 2: a white lady. It says five hundred dollars a piece

1486
01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:41,880
Speaker 2: on car seats is crazy? Who paid for them teeth

1487
01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:42,840
Speaker 2: to get fixed? Though?

1488
01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:46,160
Speaker 3: What that came out to? Blue?

1489
01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:48,880
Speaker 2: So those are the comments, guys, Karen Zero to ten.

1490
01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:52,080
Speaker 2: What would you give this on the gender war scale

1491
01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:57,600
Speaker 2: for just how good it was at getting controversial causing controversy.

1492
01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:03,560
Speaker 5: I'm gonna get this about truthfully, I'm gonna give it

1493
01:16:03,560 --> 01:16:06,479
Speaker 5: about a five and like a five or six. And

1494
01:16:06,479 --> 01:16:09,640
Speaker 5: the biggest reason why I like the music, I like

1495
01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:13,600
Speaker 5: her tone. She didn't because sometimes when people do this,

1496
01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:15,640
Speaker 5: they get too wording. Sometimes they get off topic, like

1497
01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:18,040
Speaker 5: particularly when they when they when they buy themselves they

1498
01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:21,200
Speaker 5: were you know, they get on tangents, which is easy.

1499
01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:24,840
Speaker 3: I'm going to.

1500
01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:30,760
Speaker 5: Take away my my, I mean, I'm going to uh

1501
01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:35,640
Speaker 5: take away points for the fact that it would have

1502
01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:36,479
Speaker 5: been better.

1503
01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:39,040
Speaker 3: It would have been better.

1504
01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:41,839
Speaker 5: If she would have I don't want to say went harder,

1505
01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:45,720
Speaker 5: but like, if you want both sides, you need to

1506
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:48,599
Speaker 5: also throw a pick me kind of in there somewhere,

1507
01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:50,400
Speaker 5: like like if you, if you if we're trying to

1508
01:16:50,439 --> 01:16:52,720
Speaker 5: get women and men to comment.

1509
01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:56,160
Speaker 2: Right, like what she said will obviously make men mad,

1510
01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:59,679
Speaker 2: but it'sn't. There's I feel like the numbers and stuff

1511
01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:04,800
Speaker 2: she were so impractical that there's not gonna be women

1512
01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:06,800
Speaker 2: who are like I relate to this experience, and I

1513
01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:08,920
Speaker 2: would like to argue with the men who are arguing

1514
01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:11,479
Speaker 2: with you. I feel like women are mostly like what

1515
01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:14,519
Speaker 2: who the fuck is giving people fifteen hundred dollars at

1516
01:17:14,560 --> 01:17:17,920
Speaker 2: their week of dating. Nobody's doing that, right, So I

1517
01:17:17,960 --> 01:17:21,519
Speaker 2: can't relate to you. So I can't really be I

1518
01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:25,720
Speaker 2: can't do my part in contributing to the chaos of

1519
01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:28,679
Speaker 2: this internet video. Is that what you're saying? Yes? Okay,

1520
01:17:28,760 --> 01:17:30,040
Speaker 2: so five out of ten for you.

1521
01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:35,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, because like I think that there was things that

1522
01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:38,080
Speaker 5: she could have did to kind of improve it, maybe

1523
01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:41,920
Speaker 5: instead of instead of a soft tone or stronger tone,

1524
01:17:42,320 --> 01:17:44,519
Speaker 5: to kind of be more assertive, to kind of be

1525
01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:48,280
Speaker 5: almost more demanding, like I deserve this money type of thing.

1526
01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:51,720
Speaker 2: I know you're big on attitude and presentation.

1527
01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:54,640
Speaker 3: Yes, energy, Yes, what about.

1528
01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:58,040
Speaker 2: You, Mike? Zero to ten for you know how good

1529
01:17:58,080 --> 01:18:02,800
Speaker 2: this video is at stirring up the old men, bad women,

1530
01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:05,559
Speaker 2: bad or whatever arguments. Yeah.

1531
01:18:05,600 --> 01:18:08,320
Speaker 1: I was gonna say originally like a seven ish, but

1532
01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:13,400
Speaker 1: I've been convinced by Karen's point because it can't be

1533
01:18:13,439 --> 01:18:18,200
Speaker 1: that inflammatory. It's just confusing, Like nobody, nobody could take

1534
01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:21,360
Speaker 1: it seriously, Like if she if she had said, like

1535
01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:24,080
Speaker 1: if there was greater context of like they won't even

1536
01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:26,400
Speaker 1: give you fifteen hundred dollars when you lent them fifteen

1537
01:18:26,439 --> 01:18:29,880
Speaker 1: hundred dollars when you get them dollars last week. I'm like,

1538
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:31,599
Speaker 1: can I get that fifteen hundred back?

1539
01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:31,920
Speaker 2: Can?

1540
01:18:31,960 --> 01:18:34,719
Speaker 1: I like, like, I don't, And I don't even feel

1541
01:18:34,760 --> 01:18:37,000
Speaker 1: like this is a thing like she talks about she's

1542
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:39,840
Speaker 1: saying black men, but it's not Yes, this isn't a

1543
01:18:39,920 --> 01:18:45,160
Speaker 1: stereotype about no one will just give you fifteen hundred dollars.

1544
01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:48,000
Speaker 1: Like I'm not. I'm not mad at her in a

1545
01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:52,479
Speaker 1: gendered way matter. I'm just like I'm curious. I'm like,

1546
01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:55,040
Speaker 1: you know, abbergasted.

1547
01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:57,200
Speaker 2: I want to go to her page. I want to

1548
01:18:57,240 --> 01:18:59,559
Speaker 2: go to her page and it's just this video. But

1549
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:02,400
Speaker 2: every time she changes to a different group, like and

1550
01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:06,639
Speaker 2: I'm upset because white women won't give me fifteen hundred dollars.

1551
01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:09,040
Speaker 2: I hate when I'm friends with a white lady and

1552
01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:11,680
Speaker 2: I'm like, so you got money for pumpkin spines, but

1553
01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:13,160
Speaker 2: not enough money for my rent.

1554
01:19:13,360 --> 01:19:15,240
Speaker 5: You know what Mike and I do agree is one

1555
01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:17,400
Speaker 5: of things like if she'd have came in like I'm

1556
01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:21,439
Speaker 5: a boss, you know, and like I got it, you

1557
01:19:21,479 --> 01:19:22,280
Speaker 5: should have it too.

1558
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:24,200
Speaker 2: So when I ask you for it, but like I

1559
01:19:24,200 --> 01:19:30,000
Speaker 2: don't really need it. Yes, I'm so I give it, man,

1560
01:19:30,040 --> 01:19:31,800
Speaker 2: I want to give it higher than y'all. I think

1561
01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:32,519
Speaker 2: I'll go ahead.

1562
01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:35,559
Speaker 1: I'd say it five now, just because I do think

1563
01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:38,800
Speaker 1: like Karen's right, like no one's gonna jump in on

1564
01:19:38,840 --> 01:19:42,360
Speaker 1: the side to defend her, like maybe a few, but hardly,

1565
01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:45,000
Speaker 1: and on the men's side, like at best. And so

1566
01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:47,400
Speaker 1: that's like fifty fifth. If you get all the men

1567
01:19:47,720 --> 01:19:49,760
Speaker 1: and none of the women, that's like half a war.

1568
01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:51,080
Speaker 2: That's five.

1569
01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:53,080
Speaker 1: So I think it could be I could go even lower,

1570
01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:54,160
Speaker 1: but i'd say, you know, like.

1571
01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:59,599
Speaker 2: I wanted to give it higher because she made some good,

1572
01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:04,160
Speaker 2: com needed stylistic choices that I thought were like, Wow,

1573
01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:07,880
Speaker 2: this is good like content, like the setup of it

1574
01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:12,360
Speaker 2: because it's so ridiculous. But she's saying it's so straight ridiculous,

1575
01:20:11,680 --> 01:20:15,360
Speaker 2: and there's little stuff in there that I know is

1576
01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:18,519
Speaker 2: designed to trigger men. But it's but as you both

1577
01:20:18,520 --> 01:20:22,040
Speaker 2: pointed out so astutey, it's only men that it's designed

1578
01:20:22,040 --> 01:20:23,120
Speaker 2: to make angry and.

1579
01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:25,479
Speaker 3: Need both sides.

1580
01:20:25,479 --> 01:20:28,240
Speaker 2: And yeah, and the men that were replying weren't even

1581
01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:30,559
Speaker 2: picking up the stuff I was saying, Well, one person did.

1582
01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:33,880
Speaker 2: They said the baby seat cost was ridiculous, but also

1583
01:20:34,080 --> 01:20:37,920
Speaker 2: you have two babies, like like, that's the thing. Man,

1584
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:40,360
Speaker 2: get mad about it, like you already got two babies

1585
01:20:40,400 --> 01:20:43,000
Speaker 2: and that is and you you're asking me for money

1586
01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:44,120
Speaker 2: and no one took the bait.

1587
01:20:44,320 --> 01:20:48,280
Speaker 1: Talk to them, yes, the men who are responsible for

1588
01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:49,880
Speaker 1: these two.

1589
01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:53,559
Speaker 2: So the fact that the fact that no one took

1590
01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:56,559
Speaker 2: the bait makes me feel like her delivery wasn't good

1591
01:20:56,720 --> 01:21:00,320
Speaker 2: enough because normally when we do gender wars, the people

1592
01:21:00,320 --> 01:21:04,200
Speaker 2: get so angry that everything is litigated, like, well, what

1593
01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:06,639
Speaker 2: kind of car is that? A Nissan Central Bitch, that's

1594
01:21:06,640 --> 01:21:08,920
Speaker 2: not fifteen hundred dollars right now, you know, like, and

1595
01:21:09,200 --> 01:21:11,519
Speaker 2: none of that happened in the the looks.

1596
01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:14,400
Speaker 3: I mean, somebody talked about teeth whatever, But I.

1597
01:21:14,360 --> 01:21:16,360
Speaker 2: Mean, but no, that's because she out in Vizilan.

1598
01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:19,640
Speaker 5: Okay, Yeah, they would have been more aggressive, like you

1599
01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:21,120
Speaker 5: want me to pay this money.

1600
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:22,679
Speaker 3: The way you look blah blah blah blah blah.

1601
01:21:22,760 --> 01:21:22,920
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1602
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:25,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, sadly, I have to agree with you, guys. I

1603
01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:29,280
Speaker 2: really I think I like Mike I started high. I

1604
01:21:29,320 --> 01:21:31,040
Speaker 2: was like, oh, I like the music in the background

1605
01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:32,680
Speaker 2: because I was like, oh, this is gonna make the

1606
01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:35,280
Speaker 2: men so mad. But then I was like, that's not

1607
01:21:35,400 --> 01:21:39,639
Speaker 2: the game. The game isn't. Can you make one side mad?

1608
01:21:39,680 --> 01:21:42,920
Speaker 2: That's easiest. Hell, you gotta find a way to find that.

1609
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:45,120
Speaker 2: Next is in the middle where everyone's a little bit

1610
01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:48,680
Speaker 2: mad at everybody and the women are not in the

1611
01:21:48,720 --> 01:21:52,320
Speaker 2: comments doing anything that you know, And sometimes it works

1612
01:21:52,320 --> 01:21:55,559
Speaker 2: because I mean it works, it doesn't work because the

1613
01:21:55,640 --> 01:21:59,320
Speaker 2: women are also equally as like this is stupid. Yes,

1614
01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:01,759
Speaker 2: so that then that's like, that's also a low score.

1615
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:03,599
Speaker 2: So I agree with you, guys, five out of five

1616
01:22:03,640 --> 01:22:07,200
Speaker 2: out of ten. Let's do one more thing. Let's do

1617
01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:09,680
Speaker 2: some sword ratchiness. Guys, it's been a while since we

1618
01:22:09,720 --> 01:22:12,479
Speaker 2: did some sword ratching or actually, you know what, No,

1619
01:22:13,120 --> 01:22:16,240
Speaker 2: let's do something something else, guys, let's do it. Welcome

1620
01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:19,320
Speaker 2: to the cookout. All right, it's been a while since

1621
01:22:19,320 --> 01:22:22,040
Speaker 2: we invited some white people to the cookout. I'll explain

1622
01:22:22,120 --> 01:22:27,719
Speaker 2: it after after this song comes up. Well, why can't

1623
01:22:27,720 --> 01:22:31,000
Speaker 2: I find my cookout song? Why am I drawing a Oh?

1624
01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:34,680
Speaker 2: I should just search for it? That might that will help. Yep,

1625
01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:49,800
Speaker 2: here we go.

1626
01:22:54,640 --> 01:23:03,880
Speaker 8: Welcome to the cookout. Welcome to it theout, Welcome to

1627
01:23:03,960 --> 01:23:09,839
Speaker 8: the cookout, Welcome to the cookout.

1628
01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:14,360
Speaker 2: That's right. It's the segment where we look around at

1629
01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:18,080
Speaker 2: the white folks and the allies and we say, you

1630
01:23:18,120 --> 01:23:20,879
Speaker 2: know how people online keep telling you there's no cookout,

1631
01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:23,840
Speaker 2: or if there is a cookout, black people are having it.

1632
01:23:23,840 --> 01:23:27,080
Speaker 2: We're not inviting any white people. Well, that's a goddamn lie.

1633
01:23:27,520 --> 01:23:29,679
Speaker 2: Every cookout I've ever been to, there's been some white

1634
01:23:29,680 --> 01:23:31,320
Speaker 2: people at it. I don't know who brought them, but

1635
01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:31,960
Speaker 2: they was there.

1636
01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:34,240
Speaker 3: Nope, don't know who bought them, but they was there.

1637
01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:36,519
Speaker 2: So this is the segment where we're at the blackout.

1638
01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:40,000
Speaker 2: Tips give a shout out to the white folks that

1639
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:44,799
Speaker 2: do the most or the least, is really any amount

1640
01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:47,840
Speaker 2: of trying to do something nice, We give them a

1641
01:23:47,880 --> 01:23:50,479
Speaker 2: shout out. Okay, we know it's hard out there to

1642
01:23:50,479 --> 01:23:52,599
Speaker 2: get to the cookout. So let's see who's being invited

1643
01:23:52,920 --> 01:23:59,920
Speaker 2: to the cookout today. Billionaire Michael Bloomberg.

01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:03,280
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, that's rich man.

1646
01:24:07,720 --> 01:24:12,760
Speaker 2: a charter school to HBCU pipeline for black students. Let's go.

1647
01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:14,840
Speaker 3: He's been about that life though.

1648
01:24:16,160 --> 01:24:19,320

Speaker 2: that were creating were right, Like, honestly, he knows ball

1659
01:24:53,439 --> 01:24:56,160
Speaker 2: because almost all the white people pick Howard.

1660
01:24:56,479 --> 01:24:58,800
Speaker 5: Yes they do, and they ain't nothing wrong with that,

1661

1677
01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:57,639
Speaker 5: But yeah, most of the time when they when they

1678
01:25:57,680 --> 01:26:00,200
Speaker 5: do it, they don't really go to some of the

1679
01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:02,600
Speaker 5: middle to smaller universities.

1680
01:26:02,720 --> 01:26:07,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with it. So Michael Bloomberg, donate to the

1681
01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:10,360
Speaker 2: school and we'll have the kids show up at the cookout.

1682
01:26:10,360 --> 01:26:12,880
Speaker 2: Maybe they'll sing your song or though, you know, maybe

1683
01:26:12,880 --> 01:26:15,439
Speaker 2: we can get a little scrimmage gill at the basketball court.

1684
01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:18,240
Speaker 2: You know we maybe maybe we named the basketball court

1685
01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:20,519
Speaker 2: after Michael Bloomberg for those billions of dollars. You can

1686
01:26:20,520 --> 01:26:22,320
Speaker 2: sit next to Mackenzie Scott Bezos and.

1687
01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:24,759
Speaker 3: You can tell who's who's being lazy. Who just googles?

1688
01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:28,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, nah, that was dope. I just to google.

1689
01:26:29,120 --> 01:26:32,360
Speaker 1: His net worth is over one hundred billion dollars, So yeah,

1690
01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:32,720
Speaker 1: he can.

1691
01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:34,240
Speaker 2: He got it. It's good.

1692
01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:36,719
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people who have it that aren't

1693
01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:38,679
Speaker 1: doing it. So when you got.

1694
01:26:38,520 --> 01:26:42,639
Speaker 2: It, He's no Taylor Swift. Proportionally, he's no Taylor Swift,

1695
01:26:42,680 --> 01:26:45,439
Speaker 2: but he's But I appreciate that he's doing something. There's

1696
01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:47,639
Speaker 2: a lot of a lot of billionaires that just take

1697
01:26:49,360 --> 01:26:54,360
Speaker 2: mean girl Star refuses to apologize for Charlie Kirk death threats,

1698
01:26:54,840 --> 01:27:01,000
Speaker 2: got me death comments. I'm sorry. Amanda Seafree has refused

1699
01:27:01,000 --> 01:27:04,280
Speaker 2: to back down on labeling right wing activist Charlie Kirk

1700
01:27:04,360 --> 01:27:07,840
Speaker 2: hateful shortly after his murder. She's forty, she commented on

1701
01:27:07,840 --> 01:27:10,040
Speaker 2: the Instagram post at the Kirk was shot dead during

1702
01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:13,559
Speaker 2: the college speaking tour on September tenth. The post highlighted

1703
01:27:13,600 --> 01:27:17,639
Speaker 2: Kirk's controversial statements about black people, abortion, and immigration. He

1704
01:27:17,760 --> 01:27:21,959
Speaker 2: was hateful, she posted from her verified Instagram and replied

1705
01:27:21,960 --> 01:27:24,840
Speaker 2: to a post about his beliefs. She also shared a

1706
01:27:24,840 --> 01:27:27,439
Speaker 2: post that connect the Kirk's comments supporting gun rights and

1707
01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:30,280
Speaker 2: his assassination. You can't invite violence to the dinner table.

1708
01:27:30,360 --> 01:27:34,920
Speaker 2: Be shocked when the stars eating. Goddamn she militant. Yeah,

1709
01:27:34,960 --> 01:27:37,599
Speaker 2: she meant that she don't play. She don't play that shit.

1710
01:27:38,160 --> 01:27:39,680
Speaker 2: God damn.

1711
01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:44,839
Speaker 3: Sit about that life he did.

1712
01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:47,519
Speaker 2: He was very pro gun.

1713
01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:52,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, like if he was not the victim of the

1714
01:27:52,840 --> 01:27:56,479
Speaker 1: violence that claimed his life, we can only I mean,

1715
01:27:56,479 --> 01:27:59,240
Speaker 1: you don't have to imagine the right things that he

1716
01:27:59,280 --> 01:28:03,679
Speaker 1: would have said, because there's record of him saying very

1717
01:28:03,720 --> 01:28:08,600
Speaker 1: pro gun things in the wake of gun death tragedies

1718
01:28:09,479 --> 01:28:14,040
Speaker 1: before he died. So it's I mean, I understand, like

1719
01:28:14,880 --> 01:28:18,200
Speaker 1: not you know, if you don't want to talk about

1720
01:28:18,240 --> 01:28:20,880
Speaker 1: it right away, that's.

1721
01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:21,479
Speaker 2: I under I get.

1722
01:28:21,600 --> 01:28:23,840
Speaker 1: Like I thought it was pretty classy, like what the

1723
01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:26,000
Speaker 1: thing that Jimmy Kimmel said, like right after he died,

1724
01:28:26,040 --> 01:28:28,519
Speaker 1: that the that then later he said other things that

1725
01:28:28,520 --> 01:28:30,720
Speaker 1: were reasonable. They got blown out of proportion, but like

1726
01:28:31,000 --> 01:28:34,680
Speaker 1: he said, like things that were measured and kind he

1727
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:38,719
Speaker 1: like Rob Reiner said, things that were measured and kind.

1728
01:28:38,920 --> 01:28:43,360
Speaker 1: Like as much as they don't like the authoritarian government

1729
01:28:43,479 --> 01:28:47,240
Speaker 1: that is, you know, implementing policies and taking away policies

1730
01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:50,360
Speaker 1: that are causing people around the country and the world

1731
01:28:50,479 --> 01:28:54,840
Speaker 1: to lose access to healthcare or cheap healthcare and other

1732
01:28:55,360 --> 01:28:59,800
Speaker 1: necessary resources, but that when a person dies, like you know,

1733
01:28:59,800 --> 01:29:03,960
Speaker 1: there's people are like Yeah, it's sad when a person

1734
01:29:04,040 --> 01:29:07,120
Speaker 1: gets killed by a gun, Yeah, regardless of who the

1735
01:29:07,200 --> 01:29:12,920
Speaker 1: person is. And also Amanda Seyfried like she's correct to

1736
01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:17,920
Speaker 1: like it's true that he was super pro gun and

1737
01:29:17,960 --> 01:29:22,720
Speaker 1: he got killed by a gun, and that fact seems relevant.

1738
01:29:22,920 --> 01:29:23,080
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1739
01:29:23,080 --> 01:29:26,200
Speaker 2: And I think also in the wake of that, it

1740
01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:30,240
Speaker 2: was during this like reclamation of his image, like this

1741
01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:32,719
Speaker 2: like rebranding of like, no, he was just a super

1742
01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:36,920
Speaker 2: Christian guy. It's like, that's not why he's famous, that's

1743
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:40,639
Speaker 2: not why he's going to campuses. Not going to campuses

1744
01:29:40,680 --> 01:29:43,960
Speaker 2: to spread that type of gospel. We have so many

1745
01:29:44,040 --> 01:29:47,960
Speaker 2: videos of him dunking on you know, the groups of

1746
01:29:48,200 --> 01:29:51,920
Speaker 2: teenagers and college students that are like, oh you trans well,

1747
01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:53,680
Speaker 2: I have a mean thing to say about that, and

1748
01:29:53,720 --> 01:29:58,240
Speaker 2: then posting it on his YouTube. So even the idea

1749
01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:00,519
Speaker 2: of like he was just about thoughtful to it's like

1750
01:30:00,680 --> 01:30:03,479
Speaker 2: I've seen the YouTube captions on his videos. They're not

1751
01:30:03,560 --> 01:30:07,000
Speaker 2: about thoughtful debate. Thoughtful debate is like, hmm, you've given

1752
01:30:07,040 --> 01:30:11,439
Speaker 2: me something considered that the captions like I slammed down

1753
01:30:11,600 --> 01:30:14,720
Speaker 2: on this young dummy, Like okay, you got them.

1754
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:17,920
Speaker 1: I'd like to thoughtfully debate the concept that what he

1755
01:30:17,960 --> 01:30:20,240
Speaker 1: does is exactly.

1756
01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:23,639
Speaker 2: So this is why promoted her new movie, The Testament

1757
01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:27,439
Speaker 2: of Ann Lee. And so someone was like, hey, do

1758
01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:30,840
Speaker 2: you want to walk back that hateful comment despite the

1759
01:30:30,920 --> 01:30:33,840
Speaker 2: back you know you're getting backlash from Kirk supporters, and

1760
01:30:33,920 --> 01:30:38,120
Speaker 2: she says, I'm not fucking apologizing for that. I mean,

1761
01:30:38,400 --> 01:30:40,920
Speaker 2: for fuck's sake, I'm commenting on one thing. I said

1762
01:30:41,040 --> 01:30:43,799
Speaker 2: something that was based on actual reality and actual footage

1763
01:30:43,800 --> 01:30:46,040
Speaker 2: and actual quotes. What I said was pretty damn factual,

1764
01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:49,080
Speaker 2: and I'm free to have an opinion. Of course. She

1765
01:30:49,200 --> 01:30:51,559
Speaker 2: also displayed gratitude for being able to give her quote

1766
01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:55,680
Speaker 2: unquote hateful comment more context on Instagram at the time. Uh,

1767
01:30:56,320 --> 01:30:59,160
Speaker 2: she said, we for we're forgetting the nuance of humanity.

1768
01:30:59,520 --> 01:31:01,960
Speaker 2: I can get angry about the misogyny and racist rider

1769
01:31:02,040 --> 01:31:05,599
Speaker 2: can also very much agree that his murder was absolutely disturbing,

1770
01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:09,360
Speaker 2: a deplorable and everywhere imagine right, no one should have

1771
01:31:09,400 --> 01:31:11,559
Speaker 2: to experience this level of violence. This country is grieving

1772
01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:13,800
Speaker 2: too many senseless and violent deaths and shootings. Can we

1773
01:31:13,880 --> 01:31:16,920
Speaker 2: agree on that at least, right?

1774
01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:20,240
Speaker 5: And and people that act like it's one thing or nothing,

1775
01:31:20,280 --> 01:31:22,679
Speaker 5: and it's like, no, y'all not going to turn around

1776
01:31:22,680 --> 01:31:25,880
Speaker 5: and erase hist life just because he died and act

1777
01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:26,519
Speaker 5: like the shit.

1778
01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:28,800
Speaker 3: He did when he was living just didn't exist because

1779
01:31:28,840 --> 01:31:29,280
Speaker 3: he died.

1780
01:31:29,320 --> 01:31:32,360
Speaker 2: Well A Manda Sea Free, Welcome to the cookout. We're

1781
01:31:32,360 --> 01:31:34,400
Speaker 2: gonna put you over by security. We make sure no

01:31:34,479 --> 01:31:37,639
Speaker 2: guns get in. We know that you're passionate about that

1783
01:31:38,080 --> 01:31:40,000
Speaker 2: and we don't want no violence at the cookout. So

1784
01:31:40,160 --> 01:31:43,800
Speaker 2: thank you, Amanda Sea Freed uh, and we'll see you there.

1785
01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:45,240
Speaker 2: Don't worry. We'll bring the food.

1786
01:31:45,280 --> 01:31:47,120
Speaker 3: Shout out for you for saying it with your chest too.

1787
01:31:47,400 --> 01:31:47,639
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1788
01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:50,479
Speaker 5: A lot of times people back down when they get

1789
01:31:50,479 --> 01:31:51,320
Speaker 5: asked those questions.

1790
01:31:51,400 --> 01:31:55,240
Speaker 2: And the contacts she provided was like nuanced and like real.

1791
01:31:55,320 --> 01:31:58,519
Speaker 2: It wasn't like just oh god, you hear you guys

1792
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:01,200
Speaker 2: go being sensitive every where, you know, whatever bullshit people

1793
01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:04,280
Speaker 2: say these days. If I offended someone, then I guess

1794
01:32:04,320 --> 01:32:06,479
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. It's like, no, what I said I meant.

1795
01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:09,280
Speaker 2: And also I can hold two ideas at once, which

1796
01:32:09,360 --> 01:32:11,280
Speaker 2: is and that was the thing I was saying when

1797
01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:13,960
Speaker 2: they were getting people fired that were like liberal and

1798
01:32:13,960 --> 01:32:16,479
Speaker 2: being like, man, this Charlie kirkshit. You guys are like

1799
01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:20,280
Speaker 2: lying about who he was. I was like, but if

1800
01:32:20,320 --> 01:32:24,360
Speaker 2: those people had their way, he'd be alive. Like everyone

1801
01:32:24,479 --> 01:32:26,960
Speaker 2: that you're mad at, if you let them be in

1802
01:32:27,040 --> 01:32:29,840
Speaker 2: charge of the government. No one's getting an AK forty

1803
01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:33,080
Speaker 2: seven or AR fifteen. No one's shooting someone in public

1804
01:32:33,080 --> 01:32:36,320
Speaker 2: because all those people are pro don't shoot people. He's

1805
01:32:36,360 --> 01:32:40,240
Speaker 2: the only one who's pro like, sometimes people gotta die

1806
01:32:40,280 --> 01:32:42,680
Speaker 2: so we can have guns, like a lot of us

1807
01:32:42,720 --> 01:32:45,160
Speaker 2: are like, I don't accept that as a premise. I don't.

1808
01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:47,200
Speaker 3: I'm sorry to tell you.

1809
01:32:48,720 --> 01:32:53,200
Speaker 2: The hateful man's death was sad. That's the truth. That

1810
01:32:53,320 --> 01:32:56,240
Speaker 2: is true, and hate anger is just sadness with nowhere

1811
01:32:56,240 --> 01:32:56,479
Speaker 2: to go.

1812
01:32:56,600 --> 01:32:56,800
