<v Speaker 1>the show, and I was saying before we started recording,

0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:05.679
<v Speaker 1>super intimidated by last week's guest because I have not

0:01:05.880 --> 0:01:10.640
<v Speaker 1>seen any ghosts, let alone like thirty Richard Rushfield has

0:01:10.640 --> 0:01:14.000
<v Speaker 1>definitely out ghosted everyone here. But Jack is the co

0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:17.040
<v Speaker 1>host of the wonderful daily Zeitgeist on How Stuff Works.

0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:20.039
<v Speaker 1>It's a daily podcast that really you guys talk about

0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:22.520
<v Speaker 1>pretty much everything. We try to cover it all and

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:24.320
<v Speaker 1>it's really awesome. Molly and I were lucky enough to

0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:26.520
<v Speaker 1>guest a little while ago, so we were very thrilled

0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:29.399
<v Speaker 1>to have Jack here to very excited that Jack is

0:01:29.440 --> 0:01:34.520
<v Speaker 1>here for our Star is Born special. Wait, I asked

0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:37.280
<v Speaker 1>a question, Jack, how do you do a daily podcast?

0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:40.400
<v Speaker 1>Because I feel like it's I mean, it just seems

0:01:40.440 --> 0:01:45.360
<v Speaker 1>like such an amazing feat to do it logistically. Yeah,

0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:48.919
<v Speaker 1>we we were both came in this morning talking about

0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:51.640
<v Speaker 1>like what we did for self care over the weekend

0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:56.520
<v Speaker 1>because last week was brutal. Yeah, I saw a Star

0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:59.920
<v Speaker 1>is Born for my self care, and I feel like

0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:04.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people's Yeah, yeah, exactly. My co host

0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:07.600
<v Speaker 1>ate a bunch of horrible food. So what kind of

0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:09.920
<v Speaker 1>horrible food? Because we do talk about that on the podcast.

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:11.800
<v Speaker 1>It's like, you know, we have it. We are not

0:02:11.840 --> 0:02:14.560
<v Speaker 1>supposed to talk about the horrible food though, Okay, we got,

0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:17.400
<v Speaker 1>we got, we gotta okay, But that was that was

0:02:17.440 --> 0:02:23.280
<v Speaker 1>specifically about one condiment. We did a deep into that

0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:28.080
<v Speaker 1>condiment on our show as well. Yeah, now we're talking

0:02:28.080 --> 0:02:32.200
<v Speaker 1>about just that condiment. I just want to know what

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Jack and Miles think. We more did a deep dive

0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:37.680
<v Speaker 1>on the article that brought it to everyone's attention, just

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:40.400
<v Speaker 1>did a close reading and tried to kind of get

0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:44.840
<v Speaker 1>get a feel for the author and her intentions. Jack

0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:54.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm in between or I am situational, Emily, you know,

0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:57.280
<v Speaker 1>speaking of all the real news. Um, Emily, you went

0:02:57.360 --> 0:03:00.760
<v Speaker 1>to d C this weekend. I did. I made a

0:03:00.880 --> 0:03:03.760
<v Speaker 1>very spur of the moment decision to go to d

0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:07.880
<v Speaker 1>C um after seeing Stars Born, after having my self

0:03:07.919 --> 0:03:12.720
<v Speaker 1>care on Friday, and uh, I had some frequent Flyer

0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:15.120
<v Speaker 1>miles to burn, and you know, I don't have no

0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:17.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saving up for anything in particular. So I

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.520
<v Speaker 1>was like, what are these four if not to go

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:27.280
<v Speaker 1>um be physically present at politically at a moment of

0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:31.000
<v Speaker 1>despair and heartbreak. So that's what I did. I went

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:34.680
<v Speaker 1>to d C by myself and basically just for the day.

0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:37.480
<v Speaker 1>I had a return flight for the next day. And

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:40.960
<v Speaker 1>then I was so exhausted by like six o'clock or

0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:44.280
<v Speaker 1>whenever they were actually swearing him in that I kind

0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:46.560
<v Speaker 1>of was like, I can't. I can then I'll sticking

0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:49.960
<v Speaker 1>around here. I gotta get out of Dodge um. And

0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:54.480
<v Speaker 1>that's like also like even just walking from the Supreme

0:03:54.560 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 1>Court to the train station to get the amtrack back, like,

0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:05.000
<v Speaker 1>I started to see like parties, like celebratory parties happening,

0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:09.360
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, nope, nope, no, I'm getting out

0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:12.839
<v Speaker 1>of here. Um. But I got there. I got in it. Like. Um,

0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:15.760
<v Speaker 1>I actually got to the Supreme Court where they were

0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:18.640
<v Speaker 1>doing this sort of like people's filibuster thing where um,

0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:21.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of the crowd was gathering and they had a

0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:23.200
<v Speaker 1>megaphone and they were just like letting people take their

0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:26.360
<v Speaker 1>turns tell their's survival stories or you know, like any

0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:31.240
<v Speaker 1>story basically about not being listened to or her as

0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:35.320
<v Speaker 1>women or as trans women, or as like literally anybody

0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:39.279
<v Speaker 1>and um. And that started in the morning, and then

0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:41.520
<v Speaker 1>once they were taking the vote, everybody went over to

0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:45.039
<v Speaker 1>the Capital. A bunch of people got arrested for like

0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:51.080
<v Speaker 1>going on the steps. Um. I did not get arrested. Um.

0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:53.719
<v Speaker 1>I I made the calculation in my mind that it

0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:56.440
<v Speaker 1>was not worth it that time to get arrested. I

0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:59.120
<v Speaker 1>heard later, I'm not sure if this is true or

0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:00.640
<v Speaker 1>not that I heard a rumor the people who were

0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:05.599
<v Speaker 1>arrested wouldn't be released until Tuesday because Monday is a holiday. Yes,

0:05:05.720 --> 0:05:08.240
<v Speaker 1>I heard that also. That was that was that was

0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 1>what the word was around there. I mean it was

0:05:11.400 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 1>it was pretty crazy. I mean I didn't go up

0:05:13.560 --> 0:05:15.440
<v Speaker 1>on the steps of the Capitol building because I went

0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:17.360
<v Speaker 1>to go get food because I was very hungry at

0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:19.880
<v Speaker 1>that point. Um. But when I came back, everybody was

0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:22.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of they brought like a tour bus, like the

0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:25.719
<v Speaker 1>police had a like a tour like a coach bus

0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:29.520
<v Speaker 1>for bringing away like taking the people who got arrested away.

0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:31.479
<v Speaker 1>It was like a hundred and fifty people or something

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:36.560
<v Speaker 1>got arrested. Um. It was nuts. Uh. And then you

0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:38.720
<v Speaker 1>you came home and drowned your sorrows and the stars

0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:42.000
<v Speaker 1>point before I know, before I was like, yeah I did.

0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:45.719
<v Speaker 1>On Friday night, I saw it again, uh and it

0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:49.160
<v Speaker 1>was great. Um. I love Stars Born. We'll get into

0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:51.880
<v Speaker 1>it a second. And I was also like, okay, I

0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:55.680
<v Speaker 1>did my escapism like Friday evening. Now I've got to

0:05:55.720 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 1>go because I just anticipated sitting around in my apartment

0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:04.120
<v Speaker 1>on Saturday when they confirm him and just feeling like

0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:08.240
<v Speaker 1>so useless and miserable and so in many ways, it

0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:11.600
<v Speaker 1>was a self decision to go to wash think. So

0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:13.040
<v Speaker 1>I was just like, if I'm at home, I'm just

0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:16.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna just start start pounding the wine. And that's like

0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:19.360
<v Speaker 1>the most oppressing thing I can think of right now.

0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:24.240
<v Speaker 1>So um, I'd rather be there. Um and like around

0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:28.320
<v Speaker 1>people who were genuinely pretty inspiring. Like there's a woman

0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:30.480
<v Speaker 1>there is from Planned Parenthood who was sort of like

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:33.360
<v Speaker 1>she was kind of the person who was telling us

0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:36.279
<v Speaker 1>what was happening as it was happening inside the Capital

0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Building and inside the sure and Corps, like as he

0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:42.120
<v Speaker 1>was getting confirmed in everything, and you know, being super

0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:45.920
<v Speaker 1>real with everybody, but also like just so determined about

0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:48.160
<v Speaker 1>like this is not over, like we're going to keep

0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:50.800
<v Speaker 1>fighting every step in the of the way for everything.

0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:53.360
<v Speaker 1>And it was just like I was, I was very

0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:56.240
<v Speaker 1>grateful to be around that and all the very real

0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:58.720
<v Speaker 1>emotion that was going on there instead of like in

0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:03.400
<v Speaker 1>my Brooklyn apart crying being sad about I mean I

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:06.719
<v Speaker 1>was crying there too, but you were crying about Bradley

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:11.840
<v Speaker 1>Cooper there. How tragic. Thank you for going to d

0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:15.200
<v Speaker 1>C it and whatever. It's like, you know, I didn't

0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.920
<v Speaker 1>know it was nice too for for Molly and me

0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:20.320
<v Speaker 1>because you know, you were sharing what was going on

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:22.520
<v Speaker 1>with us, and it was you know, it does feel

0:07:22.600 --> 0:07:24.760
<v Speaker 1>very isolating. I think to watch these things play out

0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:27.040
<v Speaker 1>if you are not able to put your body there,

0:07:27.320 --> 0:07:31.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's hard because I think I definitely wish

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I had been there and it, you know, it was

0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:37.920
<v Speaker 1>nice solidarity system solidarity. Yeah, oh well, you know, I

0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 1>mean I figured that that would be the reason I

0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:42.400
<v Speaker 1>would share anything. It's just like that, you know, like

0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:45.480
<v Speaker 1>there are people there who are fighting this, you know,

0:07:45.800 --> 0:07:50.240
<v Speaker 1>or like they're like doing an action physically even if

0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:52.040
<v Speaker 1>you can't, and that I feel like it can be

0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:57.800
<v Speaker 1>reassuring to know even if you can't be there. So yeah, um, anyway,

0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.400
<v Speaker 1>today's episode of Night Call is brought to you by

0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:10.720
<v Speaker 1>Third Love, maker of bras and underwear for everybody we

0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:14.400
<v Speaker 1>all well not. Jack recently got to try bras from

0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:16.960
<v Speaker 1>Third Love, a broad company that makes the most sizes

0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:20.000
<v Speaker 1>of any brand. They have seventy sizes and they're based

0:08:20.080 --> 0:08:23.320
<v Speaker 1>on thousands of measurements from real women. Third Love designs

0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:25.880
<v Speaker 1>bras with breast size and shape in mind, which is great.

0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:28.240
<v Speaker 1>If you've ever worn an uncomfortable bra, you know how

0:08:28.360 --> 0:08:31.560
<v Speaker 1>much that sucks. Their bras are super soft, they're well made,

0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and you don't feel like you're getting poked by underwires

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:36.600
<v Speaker 1>are chafed by cheap threads. You start with a fit

<v Speaker 1>not twins. Besides looking great on its owner underclothes, I

0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:47.760
<v Speaker 1>love that my bra was tagless, which is always a

0:08:47.800 --> 0:08:49.319
<v Speaker 1>pain in the butt if you have a tag that's

0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:52.480
<v Speaker 1>poking you. They're super light and they have no slip straps.

0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:56.640
<v Speaker 1>These bras offer great support without feeling like armor. So

0:08:56.720 --> 0:08:58.679
<v Speaker 1>the fuel is kind of like a mix between a

0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:01.400
<v Speaker 1>braw let and a sturdy or underwire. It's just like

0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:03.720
<v Speaker 1>the perfect thing for under a T shirt. If yours

0:09:37.400 --> 0:09:40.439
<v Speaker 1>take a nightcall. This is a night email from I'm

0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:42.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna say anonymous because I don't want to get them

0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:46.959
<v Speaker 1>in trouble at their work. All right, dear nightcall, am

0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:49.719
<v Speaker 1>I morally obligated to keep people I don't like or

0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:53.400
<v Speaker 1>agree with around. I work for a Minneapolis home improvement

0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:56.720
<v Speaker 1>company run by conservative white guys. In fact, I think

0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:59.800
<v Speaker 1>I may have been an equal opportunity employment higher now

0:09:59.880 --> 0:10:01.839
<v Speaker 1>the I think of it. Part of me wants to

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 1>find a place to work where I can have arguments

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:06.520
<v Speaker 1>about things like the value of rap beefs instead of

0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:09.240
<v Speaker 1>the value of wrap itself. I don't want to live

0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:11.760
<v Speaker 1>in a bubble, or do I. It should be said

0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:14.280
<v Speaker 1>that this company has been good to me overall. I'm

0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:17.360
<v Speaker 1>not leaving because I'm uncomfortable. More, I'm looking to try

0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:20.880
<v Speaker 1>something new, and it's something I'm thinking about going forward. Also,

0:10:21.040 --> 0:10:23.319
<v Speaker 1>for a brief time in America, hippos were going to

0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:26.360
<v Speaker 1>be the answer to our food shortage. Happy night, call,

0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:33.080
<v Speaker 1>oh Jack, what do you think? Um? Yeah, I think

0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:36.520
<v Speaker 1>a lot about bubbles living in Los Angeles, And I

0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:39.959
<v Speaker 1>mean I I do think that there's some value to

0:10:40.080 --> 0:10:44.760
<v Speaker 1>being around like minded people because then you can, you know,

0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:50.760
<v Speaker 1>motivate others and kind of motivate collective action and together

0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:56.200
<v Speaker 1>motivate Taylor Swift to come out and join join the resistance. Uh,

0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 1>but I don't know, it's it's so tough if you're

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:02.520
<v Speaker 1>if you if you have to feed a family or

0:11:02.640 --> 0:11:07.839
<v Speaker 1>just feed yourself, and you're you know, having having to

0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 1>each ship on a daily basis from like somebody who

0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:16.720
<v Speaker 1>just is you find soul withering to your very core.

0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Like I've been in that position, and it's pretty terrible,

0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:27.160
<v Speaker 1>and I consider it pure luck that I got out

0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:30.920
<v Speaker 1>of that situation. I didn't like take a stand and

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, storm out of the office or anything. So

0:11:34.640 --> 0:11:37.439
<v Speaker 1>I think it's good that he's asking the question, I guess,

0:11:37.679 --> 0:11:40.880
<v Speaker 1>and I encourage him to continue to ask it. Well,

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:45.040
<v Speaker 1>it sounds like that he or she has an opportunity

0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:48.880
<v Speaker 1>to to get go somewhere else, Like it sounds like

0:11:49.000 --> 0:11:52.040
<v Speaker 1>the decision to go to another job is already kind

0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:55.959
<v Speaker 1>of taking place. And they're like, and if that's the case,

0:11:56.160 --> 0:11:59.320
<v Speaker 1>if you are able to get into another job where

0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:04.160
<v Speaker 1>you're not riching people whose values do you hate, then like, definitely,

0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:07.120
<v Speaker 1>by all means, get out of there. It's like, obviously

0:12:07.240 --> 0:12:09.040
<v Speaker 1>very real that sometimes the job you have is not

0:12:09.320 --> 0:12:11.719
<v Speaker 1>is not one where you are sharing space with the

0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:14.000
<v Speaker 1>best people in the world. But and you know, you've

0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:17.679
<v Speaker 1>got to look after yourself sometimes I understand that, but

0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:20.080
<v Speaker 1>like if you have the opportunity to get out absolutely

0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:23.720
<v Speaker 1>like although workplaces where you can talk about rap beefs

0:12:23.760 --> 0:12:30.839
<v Speaker 1>are overrated, Uh, well yeah, I definitely think that you

0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:33.880
<v Speaker 1>would if you can finess the segue between jobs where

0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:36.720
<v Speaker 1>there's no dead time, where you're not risking being unemployed,

0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:40.199
<v Speaker 1>if you leave, um, then personally I would do that.

0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:43.719
<v Speaker 1>But also I think the question also becomes like how

0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:48.320
<v Speaker 1>how conservative are these guys? Um? For me, I think recently,

0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:52.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's very easy to like, if someone disagrees

0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:55.920
<v Speaker 1>with you at all, just feel very allergic to them, um,

0:12:56.240 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 1>And I definitely have that. But I also I mean,

0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:04.720
<v Speaker 1>or if they're truly horrible, like white supremacists, then maybe leave,

0:13:05.200 --> 0:13:08.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean regardless of what I personally couldn't keep going

0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:10.800
<v Speaker 1>in that kind of atmosphere. And so it's I think

0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:13.400
<v Speaker 1>it's a question of like, are they kind of clueless

0:13:13.679 --> 0:13:18.120
<v Speaker 1>like never Trumper, kind of like people that sort of

0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:22.960
<v Speaker 1>suck but aren't like actual racist, horrible people, or are

0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:26.280
<v Speaker 1>they actually like fascists. Well, they sound a little racist

0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:30.360
<v Speaker 1>if they think rap has no value, But I'm also

0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:33.200
<v Speaker 1>like they could be like five years old, right, I mean,

0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:35.680
<v Speaker 1>I guess it's like if you need a job, You're

0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:37.560
<v Speaker 1>probably going to have to work with some people who

0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:40.200
<v Speaker 1>you don't like or agree with, because that's what happening

0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:44.120
<v Speaker 1>a job is. But if you can get a different

0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:47.120
<v Speaker 1>job where you don't have to do that, maybe go

0:13:47.360 --> 0:13:49.880
<v Speaker 1>for it. It sounds like you don't love this job

0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:54.360
<v Speaker 1>or anything, and it seems more like the issue for

0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:57.560
<v Speaker 1>me at least issue would be more am I helping

0:13:57.920 --> 0:14:01.840
<v Speaker 1>enriched people who suck? Then? Like, is my own tolerance

0:14:01.880 --> 0:14:05.599
<v Speaker 1>for being around rhetoric being challenged? Because that's going to

0:14:05.679 --> 0:14:08.199
<v Speaker 1>be life for a long time. You're gonna be around

0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:11.719
<v Speaker 1>people whose views you hate. But if you're if you're

0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:15.480
<v Speaker 1>making people more rich so that they can screw over

0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:19.720
<v Speaker 1>other people and vote and give their money to uh

0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:24.080
<v Speaker 1>candidates whose values you disagree with them, maybe uh yeah,

0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:26.680
<v Speaker 1>that's another thing to measure for that point. Do you

0:14:26.760 --> 0:14:29.680
<v Speaker 1>think that people have like a like a moral obligation

0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:34.640
<v Speaker 1>to try and educate other people about ignorance? Yes? Oh god?

0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:36.560
<v Speaker 1>Or do you think it's too difficult if that person

0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:38.400
<v Speaker 1>is like your boss and you can't tell them they're

0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:40.360
<v Speaker 1>being an idiot? There are subtle ways to do it,

0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:43.720
<v Speaker 1>I think, even if it's just by refusing to agree

0:14:43.880 --> 0:14:45.760
<v Speaker 1>just to be polite. I mean, I think that that

0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:48.680
<v Speaker 1>that's something that you can do without endangering your job.

0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:52.720
<v Speaker 1>Do you not think so? I don't know. This weekend,

0:14:52.760 --> 0:14:56.720
<v Speaker 1>I got so exhausted, like overhearing people trying to like calmly,

0:14:57.440 --> 0:15:00.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, argue their cases to the mo of people

0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:03.160
<v Speaker 1>who were there's counter protesters, and it like it was

0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:07.160
<v Speaker 1>like so exhausting. I had to leave the earshot of

0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:10.840
<v Speaker 1>this conversation just because it was bumming me out so much,

0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:13.000
<v Speaker 1>because it's just like it's just like running up against

0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:16.000
<v Speaker 1>the wall over again, and it's really depressing. Like you

0:15:16.120 --> 0:15:20.640
<v Speaker 1>wish that, like, you know, rational conversation could win out,

0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:23.000
<v Speaker 1>but I don't know. Well, it's like when they start

0:15:23.080 --> 0:15:25.880
<v Speaker 1>making me feel crazy, which happens a lot, because it's

0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:28.760
<v Speaker 1>like they'll assume like a faux rational kind of like well,

0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, you have your opinion and I have one,

0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:33.720
<v Speaker 1>and it's like, yeah, but your opinion is like women

0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:37.240
<v Speaker 1>aren't people, so we can't like civil have a civil

0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:41.480
<v Speaker 1>disagreement about this. Yeah. I feel like the those types

0:15:41.560 --> 0:15:44.200
<v Speaker 1>of people are those types of opinions are getting to

0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:48.560
<v Speaker 1>the point that they're so bad that it's almost indefensible.

0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:51.960
<v Speaker 1>So I mean, just making them defend it out loud

0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:54.840
<v Speaker 1>at the very least, we'll give you some peace of

0:15:55.000 --> 0:15:58.720
<v Speaker 1>mind that okay, well I did what I could, or

0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:02.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, you start to come station that eventually makes

0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:06.560
<v Speaker 1>you feel better about where you work, but actually addressing it,

0:16:06.800 --> 0:16:09.760
<v Speaker 1>it seems like more and more just kind of being

0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:16.240
<v Speaker 1>passive doesn't really work anymore. And that, yeah, I don't

0:16:16.280 --> 0:16:20.200
<v Speaker 1>know that the selfishness you were talking about Emily about

0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:24.600
<v Speaker 1>like going down there because you felt like you wouldn't

0:16:25.400 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 1>like the feeling of staying around is still That's the

0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:32.400
<v Speaker 1>sort of selfishness that I feel like saves the species

0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:37.800
<v Speaker 1>rather than destroys it. Be that kind of selfish and

0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:40.960
<v Speaker 1>I hope that this is helpful for it sounds like

0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:45.280
<v Speaker 1>a un fun situation. Quick question though, based on the end.

0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:47.440
<v Speaker 1>If we were in a horrible food shortage and the

0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:51.680
<v Speaker 1>only answer we're eating hippos, where do you guys fall

0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:55.480
<v Speaker 1>I've never tried it, but sure I wonder where it

0:16:55.840 --> 0:16:58.840
<v Speaker 1>like I would go veget Harry and probably first. But

0:16:59.520 --> 0:17:02.120
<v Speaker 1>it's cool. But what if we need to eat all

0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:07.800
<v Speaker 1>the hippos to deal with the ramp? Yeah? Sure, okay, yeah,

0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:10.480
<v Speaker 1>we got to do something with it. I heard about

0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:12.520
<v Speaker 1>jellyfish to jellyfish are going to be the big food

0:17:12.600 --> 0:17:15.000
<v Speaker 1>source because there are so many of them, How do

0:17:15.119 --> 0:17:19.280
<v Speaker 1>they have any good nights? I like that. We both

0:17:19.320 --> 0:17:21.320
<v Speaker 1>think that way. We We're like, well, if you're dieting,

0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:25.120
<v Speaker 1>then they've got calories in them. They're probably like those

0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:31.000
<v Speaker 1>weird cellulose noodles. Dry them out and pound them down.

0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:35.800

0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:56.480
<v Speaker 1>of the future, the past? A Star is Born. We

0:19:56.600 --> 0:19:59.280
<v Speaker 1>all saw Stars Born. Emily saw it first at a

0:19:59.320 --> 0:20:01.560
<v Speaker 1>film festival, and then we all saw it when it

0:20:01.640 --> 0:20:05.200
<v Speaker 1>came out in theaters. Um and Emily also proposed that

0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:07.920
<v Speaker 1>we should watch all the versions, and so some of

0:20:08.000 --> 0:20:10.720
<v Speaker 1>us did take her up on that ride. I didn't

0:20:10.720 --> 0:20:13.200
<v Speaker 1>even succeed in that they're all on films track. We

0:20:13.400 --> 0:20:16.639
<v Speaker 1>we almost succeeded. I did them all except the q

0:20:16.840 --> 0:20:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Car because I've seen that one before. Um, Emily did

0:20:20.280 --> 0:20:23.720
<v Speaker 1>the q cor but not the seventies one, and yeah,

0:20:23.760 --> 0:20:25.840
<v Speaker 1>I haven't seen that one. I just saw the William

0:20:25.880 --> 0:20:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Wellman one. And yeah, Jack, how many Stars Born have

0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:32.720
<v Speaker 1>you seen? Unfortunately, just the one. Did you know anything

0:20:32.800 --> 0:20:36.920
<v Speaker 1>about the movie going in? I did. I had kind

0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:41.480
<v Speaker 1>of read up. The trailer has been in heavy rotation

0:20:41.640 --> 0:20:45.240
<v Speaker 1>in the daily Zeyegeist offices UM to the point that

0:20:45.920 --> 0:20:50.159
<v Speaker 1>when the song The Shadows actually came up, it was

0:20:50.320 --> 0:20:54.639
<v Speaker 1>like this weird existential experience because I was hearing the

0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:57.000
<v Speaker 1>full song for like the third time in my life,

0:20:57.160 --> 0:21:01.920
<v Speaker 1>but I was hearing that clip for the fifty and

0:21:02.000 --> 0:21:03.800
<v Speaker 1>so I was like, wait where it almost felt like

0:21:03.840 --> 0:21:07.840
<v Speaker 1>it was like clipped out and just like paste it in. Um.

0:21:08.040 --> 0:21:11.680
<v Speaker 1>But that scene was amazing. It was I can I

0:21:11.840 --> 0:21:14.320
<v Speaker 1>create a safe space for us to talk about the

0:21:14.400 --> 0:21:17.679
<v Speaker 1>movie and just let people know that there maybe spoilers ahead,

0:21:17.880 --> 0:21:20.840
<v Speaker 1>spoilers ahead, I can't talk about the movie without spoiling

0:21:22.040 --> 0:21:24.679
<v Speaker 1>Teslas to create a safe space for people who did

0:21:24.760 --> 0:21:27.840
<v Speaker 1>not like the music in the movie whatsoever. It honestly

0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:30.040
<v Speaker 1>is a space that is just intended to hold myself

0:21:30.080 --> 0:21:33.840
<v Speaker 1>because I know I'm the only person who feels this way.

0:21:34.400 --> 0:21:36.600
<v Speaker 1>But I felt that way. I mean, honestly, I felt

0:21:36.640 --> 0:21:38.880
<v Speaker 1>that way. Why I convinced my husband to feel that way?

0:21:38.880 --> 0:21:41.119
<v Speaker 1>After working on him for really, I was like, you know,

0:21:41.320 --> 0:21:43.280
<v Speaker 1>you didn't really like it. Why did you do that

0:21:43.440 --> 0:21:46.520
<v Speaker 1>to me? Though? Why did you do that to me?

0:21:47.480 --> 0:21:53.159
<v Speaker 1>It made me like fringe, It made me I don't know,

0:21:53.440 --> 0:21:55.680
<v Speaker 1>It's like, it's it's hard because I'm like everyone else

0:21:55.800 --> 0:21:58.119
<v Speaker 1>is feeling things right now and I'm just not. And

0:21:58.240 --> 0:22:00.920
<v Speaker 1>the only moment that made me feel some thing very

0:22:01.000 --> 0:22:05.560
<v Speaker 1>deeply in that film spoiler spoiler was when he wet

0:22:05.600 --> 0:22:10.280
<v Speaker 1>his pants at the Grammy and I got down in

0:22:10.359 --> 0:22:12.600
<v Speaker 1>my seat, I like hunkered down, and I didn't know

0:22:12.800 --> 0:22:14.680
<v Speaker 1>like I was going to cross. I was just very

0:22:14.800 --> 0:22:17.120
<v Speaker 1>I was like really disturbed. And it was a good,

0:22:17.240 --> 0:22:19.919
<v Speaker 1>good scenes funny because like having watched all the other versions,

0:22:19.960 --> 0:22:22.840
<v Speaker 1>like I knew that was coming, and yet when it happened,

0:22:23.040 --> 0:22:25.160
<v Speaker 1>when they got up to like, oh, I was like, Oh,

0:22:25.359 --> 0:22:26.960
<v Speaker 1>she's going to win the Grammy. And then he's going

0:22:27.000 --> 0:22:29.000
<v Speaker 1>to get on speed on stage and make the speech

0:22:29.000 --> 0:22:31.879
<v Speaker 1>because that's what happens in every version. Um. And then

0:22:31.920 --> 0:22:34.320
<v Speaker 1>when he wasn't talking, he just kind of stood there.

0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:36.879
<v Speaker 1>I was like started falling asleep. He's going to piss himself.

0:22:37.040 --> 0:22:41.280
<v Speaker 1>You knew, you knew? I didn't know, Yes, I did.

0:22:41.440 --> 0:22:45.840
<v Speaker 1>There's there's a lot of foreshadowing in that movie. There's

0:22:46.040 --> 0:22:48.879
<v Speaker 1>there's a there's an actual shot he drink like a

0:22:48.920 --> 0:22:51.359
<v Speaker 1>whole bottle of water before he went on, you know,

0:22:51.680 --> 0:22:53.600
<v Speaker 1>she said as he sits down, He's like, I was

0:22:53.680 --> 0:22:56.000
<v Speaker 1>trying to go to the bathroom, but somebody like rushed

0:22:56.040 --> 0:22:59.040
<v Speaker 1>me down to this seat. I didn't know that. Yeah,

0:22:59.640 --> 0:23:01.440
<v Speaker 1>he was like they pulled me out of the bathroom

0:23:01.600 --> 0:23:06.920
<v Speaker 1>or something. Shadowing. Molly, how does that play out in

0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:10.359
<v Speaker 1>the other versions, like what's that scene? Like in every version,

0:23:10.600 --> 0:23:14.480
<v Speaker 1>it's that she finally gets like, you know, she's becoming

0:23:14.520 --> 0:23:17.639
<v Speaker 1>a star, and she went toward her career the award

0:23:17.680 --> 0:23:20.959
<v Speaker 1>of her career and he's won it before and then

0:23:21.080 --> 0:23:23.879
<v Speaker 1>he gets up there and just like like ruins it

0:23:24.119 --> 0:23:28.080
<v Speaker 1>by being so embarrassing. So in the one, the q

0:23:28.280 --> 0:23:32.440
<v Speaker 1>cor one, he is like asking for work, which is

0:23:32.600 --> 0:23:36.080
<v Speaker 1>really brutal, like that's almost hirable at this point, and

0:23:36.160 --> 0:23:38.360
<v Speaker 1>he's like, well, you know, none of you guys will

0:23:38.440 --> 0:23:40.600
<v Speaker 1>hire me, but if anybody know of any studio, it'll

0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:42.840
<v Speaker 1>take me. Like it's really bad, it's really bad. In

0:23:42.920 --> 0:23:46.080
<v Speaker 1>the in the first one, he's like, hey, they give

0:23:46.119 --> 0:23:48.560
<v Speaker 1>out Frederick March is the guy in the first round,

0:23:48.560 --> 0:23:51.560
<v Speaker 1>and he's amazing. I mean, it's been great. From watching

0:23:51.600 --> 0:23:53.160
<v Speaker 1>all the versions, I was like, oh, this is such

0:23:53.200 --> 0:23:55.919
<v Speaker 1>a great part for a guy. I totally understand why

0:23:56.000 --> 0:23:57.879
<v Speaker 1>Bradley Cooper was like, what a great part for me,

0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Bradley Cooper um. But in the first one he's like, oh, hey,

0:24:02.119 --> 0:24:04.600
<v Speaker 1>like they given awards for best Actor, they should give

0:24:04.600 --> 0:24:07.119
<v Speaker 1>awards for worst Actor, and they should give them all

0:24:07.160 --> 0:24:12.119
<v Speaker 1>to me. What he's like, give me the award for

0:24:12.280 --> 0:24:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Worst Performance. You know, fun is act that Um the

0:24:17.560 --> 0:24:20.920
<v Speaker 1>actress in it? Oh god wait Janet Gaynor. Janet Gaynor

0:24:21.359 --> 0:24:24.760
<v Speaker 1>won the actual first Oscar for Best Actor. Really and

0:24:24.920 --> 0:24:28.440
<v Speaker 1>she she's a real I mean, you know this movie

0:24:28.480 --> 0:24:30.680
<v Speaker 1>in every version. I was saying, I think one of

0:24:30.720 --> 0:24:33.159
<v Speaker 1>the reasons it endures is it's about just like a

0:24:33.840 --> 0:24:36.240
<v Speaker 1>weird looking lady that a hot guy falls in love with.

0:24:36.520 --> 0:24:38.720
<v Speaker 1>I have a quick question, but the first one really

0:24:41.080 --> 0:24:43.000
<v Speaker 1>and he sees inside her soul and it's like, she's

0:24:43.040 --> 0:24:45.160
<v Speaker 1>a beautiful soul. And everybody's like, why are you dating

0:24:45.240 --> 0:24:48.800
<v Speaker 1>that weird lady? And he's like, because I love her

0:24:48.840 --> 0:24:50.960
<v Speaker 1>and I'm a drunk. So the first is the first

0:24:51.119 --> 0:24:54.040
<v Speaker 1>real star is born called what Price Hall. No, that's before,

0:24:54.240 --> 0:24:57.360
<v Speaker 1>but that that's like what it loosely Hollywood, And there's

0:24:57.359 --> 0:25:00.920
<v Speaker 1>all these real old Hollywood marriages that it's supposedly based on.

0:25:01.080 --> 0:25:02.960
<v Speaker 1>What I had heard was that it was based on

0:25:03.480 --> 0:25:06.960
<v Speaker 1>al Jolson and Ruby Keeler, and then there's other people

0:25:06.960 --> 0:25:09.959
<v Speaker 1>who said it was Barbara Stanwick and her husband. Um,

0:25:10.560 --> 0:25:14.240
<v Speaker 1>but there's so many examples in Hollywood of like a

0:25:14.359 --> 0:25:17.040
<v Speaker 1>star who started dating a starlett and then the starlett

0:25:17.080 --> 0:25:20.440
<v Speaker 1>surpasses them that there are like a lot of people

0:25:20.480 --> 0:25:22.600
<v Speaker 1>that I think are like it was this couple inspired it,

0:25:22.640 --> 0:25:23.920
<v Speaker 1>But the point is like it could have been any

0:25:23.960 --> 0:25:27.480
<v Speaker 1>of these people us all this time. Yeah, And I

0:25:27.520 --> 0:25:29.119
<v Speaker 1>saw someone making a good argument of like, well, the

0:25:29.160 --> 0:25:31.400
<v Speaker 1>first one it's about all these different heights of fame

0:25:31.560 --> 0:25:34.040
<v Speaker 1>in different eras. So the first one is like old Hollywood,

0:25:34.040 --> 0:25:36.720
<v Speaker 1>and the second one is like classic Golden era Hollywood,

0:25:36.720 --> 0:25:39.920
<v Speaker 1>and then it's like seventies rock, and then this is

0:25:40.040 --> 0:25:43.520
<v Speaker 1>whatever this is. That was a question I had. Why

0:25:43.760 --> 0:25:46.400
<v Speaker 1>would they update it with a rock star when rock

0:25:46.640 --> 0:25:49.959
<v Speaker 1>music is totally none I actually thought, because I was like, oh,

0:25:50.000 --> 0:25:53.639
<v Speaker 1>it's a fantasy movie. Rock music is popular. But I

0:25:53.720 --> 0:25:55.879
<v Speaker 1>thought they actually did a decent job with that by

0:25:55.960 --> 0:25:59.159
<v Speaker 1>making him a country rock star, because I was like,

0:25:59.280 --> 0:26:01.440
<v Speaker 1>they know that he couldn't just be your rock star

0:26:01.960 --> 0:26:04.480
<v Speaker 1>because that doesn't exist, and she couldn't just be a

0:26:04.600 --> 0:26:06.879
<v Speaker 1>rock star like she could be, like she has to

0:26:07.080 --> 0:26:10.359
<v Speaker 1>translate that into pop somehow, Like she's like kind of

0:26:10.440 --> 0:26:13.760
<v Speaker 1>taking on almost Taylor Swift type model, right, like you know,

0:26:13.960 --> 0:26:19.400
<v Speaker 1>singer songwriter legitimacy to choreography pop type stuff. It kind

0:26:19.440 --> 0:26:21.640
<v Speaker 1>of makes the most sense in the seventies one, because

0:26:21.680 --> 0:26:24.480
<v Speaker 1>in the seventies one, he's like just a ship kicking

0:26:24.880 --> 0:26:29.399
<v Speaker 1>like seventies like denim tuxedo kind of rocker guy. And

0:26:29.520 --> 0:26:33.240
<v Speaker 1>then she's like Carol King. Basically, she's like a piano lady,

0:26:33.720 --> 0:26:35.760
<v Speaker 1>you know. But it's like a time when a piano

0:26:35.920 --> 0:26:39.879
<v Speaker 1>lady could become a rock star, the only time. So

0:26:40.800 --> 0:26:45.840
<v Speaker 1>that one is amazing because it's so soft rock, and uh,

0:26:46.359 --> 0:26:48.360
<v Speaker 1>the outfits are amazing. And then at the end it's

0:26:48.400 --> 0:26:51.600
<v Speaker 1>like all outfits from Barbra Streisand's own closet. That's the

0:26:51.680 --> 0:26:54.800
<v Speaker 1>only one where that's the only one where it seems

0:26:54.840 --> 0:26:56.840
<v Speaker 1>a little bit like she's like happy that she that

0:26:56.960 --> 0:27:01.000
<v Speaker 1>he died because now she's the only person on screen. Um.

0:27:01.200 --> 0:27:03.640
<v Speaker 1>And I was telling you guys, the romantic bathtub scene

0:27:03.640 --> 0:27:06.880
<v Speaker 1>in that one is amazing because they are surrounded by

0:27:07.560 --> 0:27:12.920
<v Speaker 1>Schlitz cans, empty schlitz cans with candles in them. Um. Like,

0:27:13.119 --> 0:27:15.440
<v Speaker 1>the meltdown stuff in that one is great because it's

0:27:15.480 --> 0:27:18.600
<v Speaker 1>so seventies that it's like he like rides a motorcycle

0:27:18.680 --> 0:27:21.159
<v Speaker 1>into the crowd. That's his big funk up, And so

0:27:21.320 --> 0:27:23.879
<v Speaker 1>the point is like he's not even failing as an artist.

0:27:23.960 --> 0:27:28.000
<v Speaker 1>It's just he becomes uninsurable because he's becoming like hard,

0:27:28.200 --> 0:27:30.240
<v Speaker 1>rocks too hard, he has too much rock star excess.

0:27:30.440 --> 0:27:33.240
<v Speaker 1>He like shoots at a helicopter that's flying away with

0:27:33.320 --> 0:27:36.600
<v Speaker 1>his manager, Gary Busey in it Um, And that's the

0:27:36.640 --> 0:27:39.880
<v Speaker 1>one that's written by Joan Diddion and Gregory Dunn Um,

0:27:40.200 --> 0:27:42.960
<v Speaker 1>which is really interesting because there's like no no memorable

0:27:43.000 --> 0:27:46.680
<v Speaker 1>lines in it Um, but also because Joan Diddion and

0:27:46.720 --> 0:27:48.639
<v Speaker 1>Gregory Dunn are a couple where the woman is much

0:27:48.680 --> 0:27:50.520
<v Speaker 1>more famous from the band. So I thought that was

0:27:50.640 --> 0:27:54.720
<v Speaker 1>interesting that they were movie It's sort of funny that, like,

0:27:55.119 --> 0:27:59.160
<v Speaker 1>both Joan Diddion and Dorothy Parker have made their mark

0:27:59.280 --> 0:28:02.320
<v Speaker 1>on the Star Is borns over time, and I feel

0:28:02.359 --> 0:28:05.040
<v Speaker 1>like I feel like Lady Gaga has kind of similarly

0:28:05.119 --> 0:28:07.760
<v Speaker 1>made her mark on this most current one, like especially

0:28:07.800 --> 0:28:09.840
<v Speaker 1>given how much of the music that she wrote and

0:28:10.160 --> 0:28:13.680
<v Speaker 1>worked on, which is sort of interesting to think of

0:28:13.760 --> 0:28:17.800
<v Speaker 1>her in that particular line of succession. Yeah, we were

0:28:17.840 --> 0:28:19.800
<v Speaker 1>talking about We were like, oh, yeah, yeah, it's the

0:28:19.880 --> 0:28:22.040
<v Speaker 1>movie people right when they realized there's no money in

0:28:22.119 --> 0:28:24.760
<v Speaker 1>journalism and they have to go write a movie like

0:28:25.320 --> 0:28:27.439
<v Speaker 1>a Star Is Born. Jack did you have a favorite

0:28:27.440 --> 0:28:31.440
<v Speaker 1>scene from this iteration of a Star? Is probably the Shallows? Really, yeah,

0:28:31.720 --> 0:28:35.159
<v Speaker 1>it's so great, So where you really moved? I think

0:28:35.200 --> 0:28:38.040
<v Speaker 1>it was wishful like it was, you know, like the

0:28:38.320 --> 0:28:42.280
<v Speaker 1>idea of somebody getting to a huge concert and then

0:28:42.360 --> 0:28:45.880
<v Speaker 1>like getting pulled up and just like unleashing this song

0:28:46.000 --> 0:28:49.760
<v Speaker 1>that's been in their heart all along. And she sings

0:28:49.840 --> 0:28:54.280
<v Speaker 1>so hard like she's like she really let out. She

0:28:54.440 --> 0:28:56.840
<v Speaker 1>also does a better job of seeming like surprised by

0:28:56.880 --> 0:28:59.520
<v Speaker 1>how good she is than Stary sand does, who sort

0:28:59.560 --> 0:29:03.400
<v Speaker 1>of looks like, oh what, I'm great at singing? Um.

0:29:04.800 --> 0:29:06.560
<v Speaker 1>I also it was it was originally going to be

0:29:06.600 --> 0:29:08.920
<v Speaker 1>brought the Cooper and Beyonce, which I also was all

0:29:09.040 --> 0:29:10.440
<v Speaker 1>like when that was on the table, and it was

0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:12.160
<v Speaker 1>going to be Clint Eastwood directing it because it's been

0:29:12.160 --> 0:29:14.400
<v Speaker 1>bouncing around forever because I think it's in the public domain,

0:29:14.480 --> 0:29:17.840
<v Speaker 1>you can remake it. Um. But there was gonna be

0:29:17.880 --> 0:29:21.880
<v Speaker 1>a nineties one with Winney Houston and Will Smith. This

0:29:22.040 --> 0:29:24.320
<v Speaker 1>one very much turned into the bodyguard at the end.

0:29:24.440 --> 0:29:27.760
<v Speaker 1>Also well, she actually gets a number at the end,

0:29:28.000 --> 0:29:30.440
<v Speaker 1>which I don't know about the one, but the thing

0:29:30.520 --> 0:29:32.680
<v Speaker 1>that always leaves a bad taste in my mouth about

0:29:32.720 --> 0:29:35.840
<v Speaker 1>the other two is that the last line of it

0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:39.520
<v Speaker 1>is her saying I'm Vicky Mayne or no, I'm mrs

0:29:40.800 --> 0:29:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Mrs Norman Man, and everybody applauds and like the victory

0:29:43.720 --> 0:29:47.240
<v Speaker 1>of his that she's like claimed by her husband forevermore,

0:29:47.320 --> 0:29:51.160
<v Speaker 1>her dead drunk husband forevermore, which is like kind of

0:29:51.280 --> 0:29:54.600
<v Speaker 1>a weird victorious note to go out on. And this one,

0:29:54.800 --> 0:29:57.760
<v Speaker 1>like she doesn't have that line, but she's still singing

0:29:57.840 --> 0:30:01.640
<v Speaker 1>about how she'll never love again, which is a lot,

0:30:02.760 --> 0:30:05.000
<v Speaker 1>especially considering I was trying to break down the actual

0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:07.880
<v Speaker 1>timeline of this, this most recent Stars Born. I mean,

0:30:07.880 --> 0:30:09.480
<v Speaker 1>it's interesting to try to break down for any of them,

0:30:09.520 --> 0:30:12.040
<v Speaker 1>but this one because you because it takes place now,

0:30:12.160 --> 0:30:14.160
<v Speaker 1>and it hinges on some events that we know when

0:30:14.160 --> 0:30:19.320
<v Speaker 1>they take place, such as Stage Coach, the Grammy Awards,

0:30:19.680 --> 0:30:21.320
<v Speaker 1>so you can kind of figure out how much time goes.

0:30:21.360 --> 0:30:23.160
<v Speaker 1>But you thought about this more than they did. I

0:30:23.240 --> 0:30:26.560
<v Speaker 1>think you guys are not on Twitter to the degree

0:30:27.840 --> 0:30:30.800
<v Speaker 1>I am about a Stars Born. But Allison Wilmore from

0:30:30.840 --> 0:30:33.960
<v Speaker 1>BuzzFeed started asking about Well, first she wanted to know

0:30:34.120 --> 0:30:38.120
<v Speaker 1>where Ali and her dad live. Oh, I was totally

0:30:38.160 --> 0:30:41.720
<v Speaker 1>preoccupied by that. Well, at first I thought it looked

0:30:41.760 --> 0:30:43.800
<v Speaker 1>like Queens, and then they were like, Okay, we're going

0:30:43.840 --> 0:30:46.800
<v Speaker 1>to drive on a motorcycle to Arizona. And I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa,

0:30:47.000 --> 0:30:51.320
<v Speaker 1>where are they? And then was Queens. That's crazy to me.

0:30:51.800 --> 0:30:53.800
<v Speaker 1>To me, it was like summertime and Queens. I thought

0:30:53.840 --> 0:30:56.160
<v Speaker 1>it was Queens because he was Italian because we all

0:30:56.640 --> 0:30:58.680
<v Speaker 1>know Lady Gagas from New York because she never stopped

0:30:58.680 --> 0:31:00.920
<v Speaker 1>talking about stops talking at and so I just was like,

0:31:01.000 --> 0:31:03.520
<v Speaker 1>her dad is like a New York Italian Queen's guy.

0:31:03.560 --> 0:31:08.360
<v Speaker 1>I it's like broadcasting a borough. But then when they

0:31:08.400 --> 0:31:10.320
<v Speaker 1>were driving Arizona, I was like, oh, it must be

0:31:10.440 --> 0:31:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Burbank because Burbank would make sense, or van Eys because

0:31:13.800 --> 0:31:17.120
<v Speaker 1>that would be where the drivers would live bettle the airports.

0:31:18.880 --> 0:31:20.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I feel like they live in like like

0:31:21.200 --> 0:31:24.920
<v Speaker 1>Altadina or Arcadia or something that was not that well,

0:31:24.960 --> 0:31:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Alta Dina and Arcadia are very different places. Emily, Well,

0:31:27.760 --> 0:31:29.600
<v Speaker 1>I know, but like up in like north and east

0:31:29.720 --> 0:31:33.320
<v Speaker 1>of Los Angeles or like just east is like because

0:31:33.560 --> 0:31:36.120
<v Speaker 1>the bar that there, and he's like driving back to

0:31:36.200 --> 0:31:40.480
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles after being in in Palm Springs. I will

0:31:40.520 --> 0:31:43.280
<v Speaker 1>tell you, I didn't realize it was Los Angeles until

0:31:43.960 --> 0:31:46.800
<v Speaker 1>when they went in the grocery store. I was like, yeah,

0:31:46.880 --> 0:31:49.120
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh, that's my grocery store. And then

0:31:49.160 --> 0:31:51.280
<v Speaker 1>I was like, no, no, I'm just projecting because all

0:31:51.320 --> 0:31:53.960
<v Speaker 1>grocery stores look the same. But then they cut to

0:31:54.040 --> 0:31:56.520
<v Speaker 1>the outside and I was like, it is my grocery store.

0:31:56.600 --> 0:31:59.160
<v Speaker 1>It's super a. See. I figured out it was Los

0:31:59.200 --> 0:32:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Angeles when you guys just said it like five minutes.

0:32:03.080 --> 0:32:07.080
<v Speaker 1>I was totally thought thoughts Queen's because that's where we

0:32:07.160 --> 0:32:10.560
<v Speaker 1>put our Italian people. And yeah, I was totally. I

0:32:10.680 --> 0:32:13.440
<v Speaker 1>was too busy looking for cues that he might piss himself.

0:32:16.040 --> 0:32:19.160
<v Speaker 1>The setting was I decided, especially because he was country,

0:32:19.160 --> 0:32:21.120
<v Speaker 1>I was saying, I decided that he was Keith Urban

0:32:21.640 --> 0:32:24.360
<v Speaker 1>was my I was trying to match him up, and

0:32:24.440 --> 0:32:26.480
<v Speaker 1>since I don't know any country musicians, I was like

0:32:26.680 --> 0:32:29.440
<v Speaker 1>Jack what Yeah. Well, also because he was from Arizona,

0:32:29.520 --> 0:32:31.200
<v Speaker 1>I was like, well, you know who the most famous

0:32:31.320 --> 0:32:35.720
<v Speaker 1>rock band from Arizona is Alice Cooper. They were a

0:32:35.800 --> 0:32:40.200
<v Speaker 1>bunch of baseball jocks from Arizona who became became freak

0:32:40.280 --> 0:32:43.160
<v Speaker 1>rockers because like Frank Zappa told them to put monster

0:32:43.200 --> 0:32:46.240
<v Speaker 1>a blood on stage. Damn h. But I thought it

0:32:46.320 --> 0:32:48.520
<v Speaker 1>was funny that it was from Arizona, you know, everything

0:32:48.600 --> 0:32:50.600
<v Speaker 1>about that and the whole like him doing a Sam

0:32:50.640 --> 0:32:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Elliott voice the whole time and then being like you

0:32:53.200 --> 0:32:56.600
<v Speaker 1>took him a voice that was so strange that he

0:32:56.760 --> 0:32:59.440
<v Speaker 1>specifically said you stole my voice when it was the

0:32:59.520 --> 0:33:01.400
<v Speaker 1>thought in all of ours. So I guess they were like,

0:33:01.520 --> 0:33:04.040
<v Speaker 1>might as well call this out. But I thought at

0:33:04.080 --> 0:33:06.080
<v Speaker 1>first and he meant like he had like punched him

0:33:06.120 --> 0:33:12.080
<v Speaker 1>in the throne that is invalid alternate from Little Mermaids.

0:33:14.640 --> 0:33:16.720
<v Speaker 1>I liked how just the first out. I mean, I

0:33:16.920 --> 0:33:18.960
<v Speaker 1>really liked the first half of this movie. The second

0:33:19.000 --> 0:33:22.560
<v Speaker 1>half I had more issues with it, a little boring. Well,

0:33:22.800 --> 0:33:24.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, my issues were more kind of like that

0:33:24.680 --> 0:33:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I felt like they didn't fill in that heart, the

0:33:26.280 --> 0:33:29.560
<v Speaker 1>sort of like selling your selling your soul part of it.

0:33:29.760 --> 0:33:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Of like I was like, the lyrics aren't really that

0:33:32.960 --> 0:33:34.719
<v Speaker 1>much better or worse than the pop songs than they

0:33:34.720 --> 0:33:36.400
<v Speaker 1>are in the rock songs. It's kind of all the same.

0:33:36.560 --> 0:33:38.400
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of you know, like if they were trying

0:33:38.440 --> 0:33:40.560
<v Speaker 1>to imply that the pop songs were bad. I felt

0:33:40.600 --> 0:33:42.240
<v Speaker 1>the same way in La La Land, where they were like,

0:33:42.760 --> 0:33:45.600
<v Speaker 1>here's the sellout song that like people who have sold

0:33:45.640 --> 0:33:47.400
<v Speaker 1>out do. But then it was John Legend and you

0:33:47.480 --> 0:33:50.440
<v Speaker 1>were like John Legend like can't make a song seem bad?

0:33:50.760 --> 0:33:53.280
<v Speaker 1>You know that that's that's a total failure. That part

0:33:53.360 --> 0:33:55.560
<v Speaker 1>in that movie, and that part in that movie you're like, oh,

0:33:55.600 --> 0:33:59.080
<v Speaker 1>I wish John Legend were playing the Ryan Gosli maybe

0:33:59.120 --> 0:34:02.160
<v Speaker 1>this movie would make sense. Um. But I I do

0:34:02.360 --> 0:34:05.200
<v Speaker 1>think that musically the pop songs are not is good

0:34:05.600 --> 0:34:09.040
<v Speaker 1>like lyrically whatever, it's all like inspirational pop music lyrics.

0:34:09.160 --> 0:34:12.200
<v Speaker 1>I think I think that you cannot deny that musically

0:34:12.440 --> 0:34:16.000
<v Speaker 1>is something like shallow is better than why did you

0:34:16.120 --> 0:34:22.239
<v Speaker 1>do that to me? What what you walk around walking? Boy? Boy?

0:34:22.320 --> 0:34:24.640
<v Speaker 1>What you do with an ask like that? Yeah? Well,

0:34:24.960 --> 0:34:26.800
<v Speaker 1>what I loved about the first hour THO was like

0:34:26.880 --> 0:34:29.040
<v Speaker 1>it was all just like close ups of people's faces.

0:34:29.400 --> 0:34:31.360
<v Speaker 1>It was like you like a good face, like a

0:34:31.400 --> 0:34:33.720
<v Speaker 1>good face for me. That's what actors bring when they direct,

0:34:33.840 --> 0:34:36.279
<v Speaker 1>is all they care about, is like actors faces really

0:34:36.360 --> 0:34:39.480
<v Speaker 1>close up very tan face on very tan face, Lady

0:34:39.520 --> 0:34:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Gaga's face, which Test has some issues with. I also

0:34:42.320 --> 0:34:45.640
<v Speaker 1>did there. I didn't notice the fillers, and you guys

0:34:45.680 --> 0:34:49.160
<v Speaker 1>pointed out and I saw you once you notice the

0:34:49.200 --> 0:34:51.920
<v Speaker 1>bunny lines. Bunny lines is when you get botox in

0:34:52.000 --> 0:34:54.640
<v Speaker 1>your forehead and you can't move your forehead, so when

0:34:54.680 --> 0:34:57.120
<v Speaker 1>you try to move your forehead there are like these

0:34:57.160 --> 0:35:04.040
<v Speaker 1>little squinchy lines on your nose instead. And for the

0:35:04.080 --> 0:35:07.120
<v Speaker 1>first time through like Nicole Kidman because she had a

0:35:07.200 --> 0:35:09.319
<v Speaker 1>really bad but it's like a thing you notice where

0:35:09.320 --> 0:35:10.920
<v Speaker 1>it's like somebody tries to move their face and it

0:35:11.000 --> 0:35:12.640
<v Speaker 1>can't move where it's supposed to move, so it goes

0:35:12.680 --> 0:35:15.040
<v Speaker 1>somewhere else. In one of the reviews of A Star

0:35:15.239 --> 0:35:17.760
<v Speaker 1>is Born, that all of the reviews I read were positive,

0:35:17.800 --> 0:35:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I could not find a good, like a solid negative

0:35:20.960 --> 0:35:23.719
<v Speaker 1>review to cling to, and I had to admit that

0:35:23.800 --> 0:35:25.319
<v Speaker 1>I liked this movie a lot more than I thought

0:35:25.320 --> 0:35:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I would going into it. But um, in one of

0:35:27.920 --> 0:35:30.600
<v Speaker 1>the movie reviews that was slightly critical, they were like,

0:35:30.719 --> 0:35:33.239
<v Speaker 1>she can't move her eyebrows, so she does all of

0:35:33.320 --> 0:35:35.800
<v Speaker 1>this acting with her eyelids, and it's like you have

0:35:35.960 --> 0:35:39.359
<v Speaker 1>to acknowledge she does a great job, Like she's doing

0:35:39.440 --> 0:35:43.360
<v Speaker 1>some eyelid acting that's kind of next level but I

0:35:43.480 --> 0:35:46.560
<v Speaker 1>do I wish like I I like, I mean, part

0:35:46.600 --> 0:35:48.680
<v Speaker 1>of what's appealing about this character is that it's a

0:35:48.800 --> 0:35:52.120
<v Speaker 1>character who refuses to change her face, and so it's

0:35:52.160 --> 0:35:55.799
<v Speaker 1>a little hypocritical when and maybe I'm wrong, but I'm

0:35:55.840 --> 0:35:57.880
<v Speaker 1>pretty good at spotting these things. So I'm like, I

0:35:58.000 --> 0:36:00.439
<v Speaker 1>just wish she hadn't done anything to her face. Well,

0:36:00.560 --> 0:36:02.719
<v Speaker 1>we were saying this too, and I was like, but real,

0:36:02.840 --> 0:36:05.359
<v Speaker 1>Lady Gaga like didn't change her nose but put other

0:36:05.400 --> 0:36:08.719
<v Speaker 1>stuff in her face. So debate up for debate, And

0:36:08.920 --> 0:36:11.560
<v Speaker 1>in my mind, because I was justifying all of this,

0:36:11.800 --> 0:36:14.840
<v Speaker 1>I was like, well, because she is a waitress in Queens,

0:36:14.880 --> 0:36:19.640
<v Speaker 1>where this movie takes place, I was like, she's you know,

0:36:19.800 --> 0:36:22.360
<v Speaker 1>who knows, maybe she like sprang for the botox with

0:36:22.440 --> 0:36:25.120
<v Speaker 1>her bonus or something. Well that's another reason why it

0:36:25.239 --> 0:36:27.120
<v Speaker 1>was like hard to believe it was l a is

0:36:27.200 --> 0:36:31.040
<v Speaker 1>because a lot of people do wait tables downtown, for sure,

0:36:31.320 --> 0:36:34.400
<v Speaker 1>but it's way more likely that she would have been

0:36:34.440 --> 0:36:37.200
<v Speaker 1>waiting tables and living in the valley, You're not going

0:36:37.239 --> 0:36:39.720
<v Speaker 1>to commute from Burbank or to Luca Lake, er Arcadia

0:36:39.760 --> 0:36:43.439
<v Speaker 1>or Altadina, as Emily thinks to downtown when you could

0:36:43.480 --> 0:36:45.160
<v Speaker 1>just as easily get a job at a local room.

0:36:45.160 --> 0:36:47.160
<v Speaker 1>I think he was supposed to be any town, USA.

0:36:47.280 --> 0:36:49.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it was supposed to be Los Angeles.

0:36:49.200 --> 0:36:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I think we all just knew it was Los Angeles

0:36:51.160 --> 0:36:55.000
<v Speaker 1>because there were context only Los Angeles. I mean, like,

0:36:55.239 --> 0:37:00.359
<v Speaker 1>what like Queensbridgeaby he lives, Like, no, why would how

0:37:00.360 --> 0:37:03.680
<v Speaker 1>would her dad get to to you know, to the

0:37:03.760 --> 0:37:06.200
<v Speaker 1>house and everything. They just live on the opposite sides

0:37:06.239 --> 0:37:10.239
<v Speaker 1>of Los Angeles. I can't picture, even though I know

0:37:10.400 --> 0:37:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Andrew dice Clay lives in the valley, It's hard for

0:37:12.440 --> 0:37:15.239
<v Speaker 1>me to picture. Know, this is what I was saying.

0:37:15.280 --> 0:37:17.600
<v Speaker 1>It's like, it's not unrealistic that a bunch of like,

0:37:18.120 --> 0:37:21.680
<v Speaker 1>like a bunch of like guys from Queens would like

0:37:21.840 --> 0:37:25.800
<v Speaker 1>come out to Los Angeles to fulfill one guy's Sinatra dreams.

0:37:25.920 --> 0:37:28.520
<v Speaker 1>Like it's like Entourage and then they all ended up

0:37:28.560 --> 0:37:36.239
<v Speaker 1>being drivers that they're old Entourage. It's like down her

0:37:36.320 --> 0:37:39.680
<v Speaker 1>seventies ending Entourage where they all just became drivers and

0:37:39.800 --> 0:37:41.960
<v Speaker 1>like and like bragged about the famous people that they

0:37:42.000 --> 0:37:45.000
<v Speaker 1>got to drive. Please give us more thoughts on where

0:37:45.200 --> 0:37:47.840
<v Speaker 1>exactly Andrew dice Clay and his friends are living in

0:37:47.920 --> 0:37:49.480
<v Speaker 1>a star is born. Give us a call at to

0:37:49.680 --> 0:37:51.880
<v Speaker 1>four oh four six night or you can email us

0:37:51.880 --> 0:37:54.600
<v Speaker 1>at Nightcall podcast at gmail dot com. Should we take

0:37:54.600 --> 0:37:58.279
<v Speaker 1>another night call? Let's take a nightcall night email. Uh,

0:37:58.560 --> 0:38:01.760
<v Speaker 1>here's a nightcall that comes from Casey. I was catching

0:38:01.840 --> 0:38:04.040
<v Speaker 1>up on an episode from last month and Emily was

0:38:04.120 --> 0:38:07.200
<v Speaker 1>talking about the injustice of animal lifespans and how there

0:38:07.280 --> 0:38:09.879
<v Speaker 1>was no rhyme or reason to them. I remembered reading

0:38:09.920 --> 0:38:12.400
<v Speaker 1>an article once that said mammals all get about the

0:38:12.480 --> 0:38:16.000
<v Speaker 1>same number of heartbeats before they die, around a billion. Once.

0:38:16.040 --> 0:38:18.799
<v Speaker 1>With slower heartbeats just live longer because it takes longer

0:38:18.880 --> 0:38:21.480
<v Speaker 1>to hit their heartbeat limit. Somewhere else, I saw that

0:38:21.600 --> 0:38:24.239
<v Speaker 1>chickens get about two billion beats on average, though, so

0:38:24.320 --> 0:38:27.240
<v Speaker 1>they definitely get a better deal than most animals. Happy

0:38:27.360 --> 0:38:30.800
<v Speaker 1>night call. It's very sad night call. In fact, I

0:38:30.880 --> 0:38:32.840
<v Speaker 1>think it's an uplifting night call. It depends on how

0:38:32.880 --> 0:38:35.200
<v Speaker 1>you think beautiful. If we can all just can't believe,

0:38:35.719 --> 0:38:38.080
<v Speaker 1>if we can slow our heartbeats now, we could live forever.

0:38:38.360 --> 0:38:41.720
<v Speaker 1>I think that's why meditation might be the trio, because

0:38:41.800 --> 0:38:46.320
<v Speaker 1>meditation slows your heart rate. If we agree that chickens

0:38:46.480 --> 0:38:50.360
<v Speaker 1>deserve to live longer than our loved ones. That was

0:38:53.200 --> 0:38:55.360
<v Speaker 1>we were talking recently about how chickens have do have

0:38:55.480 --> 0:38:59.200
<v Speaker 1>a strangely long lifespan, like they stopped laying eggs and

0:38:59.239 --> 0:39:02.040
<v Speaker 1>then just kind of go on longer than you would expect.

0:39:02.920 --> 0:39:04.959
<v Speaker 1>I've been eating a lot of chicken recently thinking about

0:39:05.000 --> 0:39:06.560
<v Speaker 1>this because I'm like, they just they would be a

0:39:06.640 --> 0:39:12.160
<v Speaker 1>horrible overpopulation problem. They're they're temperamental. You're Molly's looking at me, like, no,

0:39:12.280 --> 0:39:14.800
<v Speaker 1>I was just thinking about keeping like a yard of hippo's,

0:39:15.880 --> 0:39:19.239
<v Speaker 1>like a hippo coop. How many beats per second? Do

0:39:19.280 --> 0:39:24.759
<v Speaker 1>it does like a like a bugs of heartbeats? That's

0:39:24.800 --> 0:39:27.520
<v Speaker 1>a good question. How about lizards, Well, I just I

0:39:27.560 --> 0:39:29.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know if anybody saw that. There was a viral

0:39:29.520 --> 0:39:32.600
<v Speaker 1>video about a teg you, a lizard name named Winston

0:39:32.719 --> 0:39:36.040
<v Speaker 1>who was a tag you Maybe not nobody, nobody, this

0:39:36.239 --> 0:39:39.440
<v Speaker 1>tag you. Tag you's are very intelligent lizards that can

0:39:39.520 --> 0:39:42.080
<v Speaker 1>be trained to use litter box or respond to a

0:39:42.120 --> 0:39:44.600
<v Speaker 1>clicker and do commands. And there was a video about

0:39:44.600 --> 0:39:47.600
<v Speaker 1>a woman who had a tag you named Winston and

0:39:47.840 --> 0:39:50.920
<v Speaker 1>he like sought human contact and she was like, like

0:39:51.000 --> 0:39:53.040
<v Speaker 1>I thought he was just seeking heat because I'm a

0:39:53.080 --> 0:39:56.200
<v Speaker 1>heat source. But then it would be like warm enough

0:39:56.280 --> 0:39:57.960
<v Speaker 1>in the house where he would leave a heat source

0:39:58.040 --> 0:40:00.520
<v Speaker 1>to come visit her and he would like climb up

0:40:00.520 --> 0:40:02.920
<v Speaker 1>on her shoulder and nozzle her. So I was at

0:40:02.960 --> 0:40:04.719
<v Speaker 1>a birthday party over the weekend and there was a

0:40:04.800 --> 0:40:07.040
<v Speaker 1>tag you and the guy was like, this is the

0:40:07.160 --> 0:40:09.759
<v Speaker 1>best lizard you can get. And I think that they

0:40:09.920 --> 0:40:14.279
<v Speaker 1>live like fifteen to twenty years, and then chameleons there's

0:40:14.280 --> 0:40:17.040
<v Speaker 1>a huge range. Some species of chameleon live like two

0:40:17.120 --> 0:40:19.239
<v Speaker 1>to three years and others can live up to ten.

0:40:19.480 --> 0:40:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I had a chameleon who lived to be nine. Does

0:40:21.560 --> 0:40:24.040
<v Speaker 1>that mean a tortoise has the slowest heart beat? It's

0:40:24.040 --> 0:40:26.319
<v Speaker 1>a good well, that's a good question because they are

0:40:26.400 --> 0:40:29.480
<v Speaker 1>one of the longest lived creatures and they do. I

0:40:29.520 --> 0:40:31.920
<v Speaker 1>think the Salcata tortoise lives between like seventy and a

0:40:32.040 --> 0:40:34.160
<v Speaker 1>hundred years, maybe even older. I think it's hard to tell.

0:40:35.280 --> 0:40:38.520
<v Speaker 1>Like a fly, yeah, may flies have like twenty four

0:40:38.560 --> 0:40:44.440
<v Speaker 1>hour lifespans. I've wondered if they like subjectively from their perspective,

0:40:44.560 --> 0:40:47.600
<v Speaker 1>where you're like as slow moving as trees are to

0:40:48.040 --> 0:40:51.680
<v Speaker 1>us because there because our lifespans are so much longer. Yeah,

0:40:52.520 --> 0:40:57.600
<v Speaker 1>and I've decided we aren't. What about hunting birds? Don't

0:40:57.760 --> 0:40:59.799
<v Speaker 1>honey birds have to? Like? They have a really very

0:41:00.000 --> 0:41:03.080
<v Speaker 1>it's hard bets and bats. We'll get into the whole

0:41:03.120 --> 0:41:05.439
<v Speaker 1>thing with bats at some point. Bats almost all bats

0:41:05.520 --> 0:41:08.879
<v Speaker 1>have brabies. I read, really, Yeah, gotta be careful to bats.

0:41:09.040 --> 0:41:10.960
<v Speaker 1>There's a bat in your house. You might even need

0:41:11.160 --> 0:41:13.200
<v Speaker 1>I thought a reason to be afraid of bats. I

0:41:13.239 --> 0:41:16.200
<v Speaker 1>thought that that was all like just superstition or something. No, man,

0:41:16.360 --> 0:41:18.520
<v Speaker 1>this comes from the legal advice Reddit, and they say

0:41:18.600 --> 0:41:21.240
<v Speaker 1>that if you like, bats can bite you when you're sleeping,

0:41:21.280 --> 0:41:23.439
<v Speaker 1>you might not even know, and like, such a huge

0:41:23.480 --> 0:41:26.279
<v Speaker 1>percentage of bats have rabies, and I love bats, so

0:41:26.360 --> 0:41:31.160
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to hear. Yeah, you become batman, right, that is, yeah, exactly,

0:41:31.280 --> 0:41:34.440
<v Speaker 1>you either get rabies or turned into Batman but all

0:41:34.480 --> 0:41:40.120
<v Speaker 1>the dice, or like a vampire. And worse than that

0:41:40.440 --> 0:41:42.800
<v Speaker 1>is that bat guano. If there's a lot of batguana

0:41:42.880 --> 0:41:45.399
<v Speaker 1>in your house, for instance, then the particles you can

0:41:45.560 --> 0:41:48.800
<v Speaker 1>get respiratory infections that can kill you. It's all on

0:41:48.920 --> 0:41:51.279
<v Speaker 1>legal advice Reddit. I'm just saying, why is it on

0:41:51.480 --> 0:41:57.760
<v Speaker 1>legal advice the best reddit ever? Because this is about

0:41:58.400 --> 0:42:02.080
<v Speaker 1>whether it's a it was a condemned house question to

0:42:02.160 --> 0:42:06.080
<v Speaker 1>be condemned and does the does the family whatever? It

0:42:06.200 --> 0:42:09.640
<v Speaker 1>was a long long post is of late thinking like

0:42:09.680 --> 0:42:12.759
<v Speaker 1>there must have been a house episode about getting respiratory

0:42:12.760 --> 0:42:20.520
<v Speaker 1>illness from back wan Yeah, I um, Jack, are you

0:42:20.640 --> 0:42:24.640
<v Speaker 1>familiar with the murder board? I am Yeah. He's a

0:42:24.680 --> 0:42:29.480
<v Speaker 1>devout Okay, Jack is a night bat, which is what

0:42:29.560 --> 0:42:32.239
<v Speaker 1>we call our fans as of right now. That night

0:42:38.760 --> 0:42:41.880
<v Speaker 1>we had um, we had a call from a listener

0:42:41.960 --> 0:42:45.279
<v Speaker 1>who is a woodworker who was being asked to make

0:42:45.360 --> 0:42:49.040
<v Speaker 1>a Norwegia board from wood that had been sourced from

0:42:49.080 --> 0:42:52.520
<v Speaker 1>a house in which there was a grizzly murder. Um.

0:42:52.800 --> 0:42:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I guess within the last couple of years or something. Uh.

0:42:57.239 --> 0:43:00.520
<v Speaker 1>And it was a big moral qual dream that we

0:43:00.600 --> 0:43:05.040
<v Speaker 1>were sorting through and uh he I guess eventually decided

0:43:05.080 --> 0:43:08.320
<v Speaker 1>to make it, to take the money, which apparently was

0:43:08.440 --> 0:43:11.239
<v Speaker 1>not its substantial, and to make the murder board. So

0:43:11.360 --> 0:43:16.360
<v Speaker 1>we have an update from him about the murder board.

0:43:17.719 --> 0:43:20.920
<v Speaker 1>He sent a photo to photos to photos. He had

0:43:20.960 --> 0:43:23.600
<v Speaker 1>said there was some discoloration in the wood, a dark

0:43:23.680 --> 0:43:26.040
<v Speaker 1>spot that he wasn't sure if it was blood or not.

0:43:27.200 --> 0:43:30.920
<v Speaker 1>It's it's blood. It very much appears to be blood.

0:43:31.040 --> 0:43:32.960
<v Speaker 1>We looked at it and we were like, nuts, blood

0:43:33.120 --> 0:43:35.520
<v Speaker 1>or catch up, those are the only things that could

0:43:35.520 --> 0:43:42.520
<v Speaker 1>be blood. And he was like, nothing bad has happened yet,

0:43:43.600 --> 0:43:47.479
<v Speaker 1>but I've been having really dark dreams all the time.

0:43:51.760 --> 0:43:54.399
<v Speaker 1>I told you not to do it. He did also

0:43:54.480 --> 0:43:56.839
<v Speaker 1>promise to keep us posted and let us know when

0:43:56.880 --> 0:43:59.359
<v Speaker 1>he's finished and send us pictures. Seems a little bit

0:43:59.440 --> 0:44:02.000
<v Speaker 1>like he was having second thoughts though, Oh you think.

0:44:02.400 --> 0:44:04.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know. You guys are the ones

0:44:04.640 --> 0:44:06.600
<v Speaker 1>who were like, do it, do it. I'm happy, just

0:44:06.680 --> 0:44:09.839
<v Speaker 1>see what happens. Just left up, Just left that little

0:44:09.920 --> 0:44:14.560
<v Speaker 1>cutie bat bite. You got to be brave, as I

0:44:14.680 --> 0:44:18.800
<v Speaker 1>can't tell what's like. It looks like catchup. It's so

0:44:19.120 --> 0:44:23.600
<v Speaker 1>drizzly and weird, like it looks like steak sauce. I mean,

0:44:23.719 --> 0:44:26.640
<v Speaker 1>it does look comically like blood. That's the thing, Like

0:44:28.200 --> 0:44:31.520
<v Speaker 1>like there's it looks like like something from the set

0:44:31.560 --> 0:44:35.120
<v Speaker 1>of Dexter, like like splatters that you could try to

0:44:35.239 --> 0:44:37.000
<v Speaker 1>use real blood on that show. I don't know if

0:44:37.040 --> 0:44:45.399
<v Speaker 1>you knew that, Emily. I believe it is this pre

0:44:46.080 --> 0:44:51.160
<v Speaker 1>He hasn't started carving it yet. He's in the process. Yeah,

0:44:51.239 --> 0:44:54.439
<v Speaker 1>this is like a work in progress shot. Um. Yeah,

0:44:54.440 --> 0:44:56.719
<v Speaker 1>and then I'm really excited to see what it looks

0:44:56.760 --> 0:44:59.520
<v Speaker 1>like when it's done. Yeah. I mean he's already been

0:44:59.600 --> 0:45:02.960
<v Speaker 1>damned by starting the project, so there's no point right now.

0:45:03.000 --> 0:45:05.799
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to know about his dreams. Oh yeah, please

0:45:05.840 --> 0:45:07.600
<v Speaker 1>tell us more about your dream We need more detail.

0:45:08.040 --> 0:45:11.120
<v Speaker 1>We should have more episodes about dreams in general, like

0:45:11.360 --> 0:45:14.920
<v Speaker 1>tell us your dream questions, because I've been having some

0:45:15.040 --> 0:45:17.439
<v Speaker 1>freaky dreams lately. But I feel like we're getting today

0:45:17.440 --> 0:45:19.160
<v Speaker 1>and that a lot of people have been having really

0:45:19.520 --> 0:45:22.640
<v Speaker 1>scary dystopian dreams because we live in a hell world. Yeah,

0:45:23.320 --> 0:45:26.080
<v Speaker 1>what do you think? Yeah, it seems like blood. It

0:45:26.160 --> 0:45:29.360
<v Speaker 1>seems like an actual murder took place on top of

0:45:29.480 --> 0:45:33.560
<v Speaker 1>that board, because there is like some drizzle that looks

0:45:33.600 --> 0:45:36.680
<v Speaker 1>like it could be you just Google Google image search

0:45:37.000 --> 0:45:40.560
<v Speaker 1>blood splatter. But then there's also this, but then there's

0:45:40.640 --> 0:45:43.840
<v Speaker 1>like a big splotch that is like, I don't know,

0:45:43.960 --> 0:45:48.120
<v Speaker 1>it looks like there was pulling there and I don't

0:45:48.160 --> 0:45:51.680
<v Speaker 1>know that that convinced me and I am an ex Yeah,

0:45:52.520 --> 0:45:54.759
<v Speaker 1>not at all. Would you tell the guy to make

0:45:54.800 --> 0:45:56.960
<v Speaker 1>the murder boarder? Now? No. I think it's a very

0:45:57.040 --> 0:46:00.600
<v Speaker 1>bad decision. Is it is like, well, coming a bet,

0:46:00.680 --> 0:46:05.040
<v Speaker 1>but onto your soul one vote for I mean, but

0:46:05.280 --> 0:46:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I would tell him to do it because I'm curious

0:46:08.160 --> 0:46:10.520
<v Speaker 1>to see what happens to him. I would not do it,

0:46:10.640 --> 0:46:14.359
<v Speaker 1>I guess. I like how all of our questions are,

0:46:14.400 --> 0:46:16.680
<v Speaker 1>like should I give up my livelihood because I'm going

0:46:16.719 --> 0:46:22.400
<v Speaker 1>to do if? I might be cursed. We're cursed already,

0:46:22.560 --> 0:46:28.640
<v Speaker 1>news flash. We are all curry converse by proxy by urging. Yeah,

0:46:28.960 --> 0:46:32.200
<v Speaker 1>the gig economy is a curse. That's true. Can I

0:46:32.280 --> 0:46:36.000
<v Speaker 1>ask one question of everybody, what's your favorite romantic movie?

0:46:37.160 --> 0:46:39.600
<v Speaker 1>Was anybody a Titanic person? Because I was definitely not.

0:46:40.320 --> 0:46:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm not. I'm not into the romance and Titanic. I'm

0:46:43.000 --> 0:46:49.719
<v Speaker 1>into everything else without into the infrastructure failing. Yes, I am. Um,

0:46:50.360 --> 0:46:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm the romances between the ship and the glaciers. They're

0:46:54.560 --> 0:46:59.399
<v Speaker 1>drawn together. Touch Um. You love Mulan Rouge though, I will.

0:47:00.080 --> 0:47:02.400
<v Speaker 1>I like. I like Millan Region, I like I like

0:47:02.600 --> 0:47:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Romeo and Juliet, I like those Boss Lerman's I'm a

0:47:08.040 --> 0:47:12.000
<v Speaker 1>big one. Car Wi Sucker's probably my most romantic filmmaker

0:47:12.200 --> 0:47:15.960
<v Speaker 1>and probably like um, I mean like fallen Angels is

0:47:16.040 --> 0:47:18.600
<v Speaker 1>not like a happy like nobody ends up together and

0:47:18.680 --> 0:47:21.240
<v Speaker 1>following Angels, but that one definitely is like a mood

0:47:22.120 --> 0:47:26.919
<v Speaker 1>that I appreciate. How about you, Jack, m I really

0:47:27.040 --> 0:47:29.480
<v Speaker 1>liked notting Hill when I saw it. Yeah, it was

0:47:29.640 --> 0:47:32.839
<v Speaker 1>a long time ago, but I liked that a lot.

0:47:33.239 --> 0:47:36.239
<v Speaker 1>It's just a girl standing in front of a hill.

0:47:39.280 --> 0:47:42.080
<v Speaker 1>What about you, Molly? I love that Boss Lerman, Romeo

0:47:42.120 --> 0:47:48.359
<v Speaker 1>and Juliet so much. Um. I love Doctor Javago. Oh yeah,

0:47:49.400 --> 0:47:52.200
<v Speaker 1>and I also love Reds. Reds is my favorite is

0:47:52.280 --> 0:47:58.960
<v Speaker 1>great tragic long romance. Um, very good. Check it out.

0:47:59.120 --> 0:48:02.600
<v Speaker 1>It's very time. Yeah. How about you? I like punch

0:48:02.680 --> 0:48:09.839
<v Speaker 1>drunk Love. Oh, great answer, that's totally mine's punch trunk

0:48:09.880 --> 0:48:19.359
<v Speaker 1>love actually actually punch drunk love actually love actually not actually. Um, well,

0:48:19.400 --> 0:48:22.160
<v Speaker 1>I think that does it. Well. Thank you very much

0:48:22.239 --> 0:48:24.640
<v Speaker 1>Jack for joining us today, and thank you guys so

0:48:24.800 --> 0:48:35.640
<v Speaker 1>much for having me. That does it saying? Jack? WHOA wow?

0:48:35.920 --> 0:48:38.920
<v Speaker 1>Did did? Did Lady Gaga just walk into the studio?

0:48:39.560 --> 0:48:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Her name is Ali Ali, and it's very gentleman's Ali.

0:48:43.760 --> 0:48:46.200
<v Speaker 1>It's very confusing when she becomes a pop star and

0:48:46.239 --> 0:48:48.439
<v Speaker 1>then she's not Lady Gaga and I think they should

0:48:48.440 --> 0:48:50.560
<v Speaker 1>have made her blond. That's my life. The absolutely air

0:48:50.680 --> 0:48:53.520
<v Speaker 1>was terrible in this film. The most romantic part of

0:48:53.600 --> 0:48:58.440
<v Speaker 1>the movie. The eyebrow made me be like, I like

0:48:58.640 --> 0:49:01.359
<v Speaker 1>this movie. It's a good It's just people looking at

0:49:01.400 --> 0:49:03.839
<v Speaker 1>each other in the face. Do you think they came

0:49:03.920 --> 0:49:06.160
<v Speaker 1>up with the eyebrow thing just because she couldn't move

0:49:06.200 --> 0:49:08.560
<v Speaker 1>her eyebrows and so they were like, that's such a

0:49:08.600 --> 0:49:15.640
<v Speaker 1>good point. Therefore, not draw attention to Fraley Cooper email

0:49:15.800 --> 0:49:19.640
<v Speaker 1>us now that you said that. I keep thinking because

0:49:19.680 --> 0:49:21.440
<v Speaker 1>that shot of when he when she lies on the

0:49:21.480 --> 0:49:23.360
<v Speaker 1>stage and they like zoom in on her eyelids and

0:49:23.440 --> 0:49:27.040
<v Speaker 1>she's like eyelids. Yeah. See. Well on that note, guys,
