1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:04,800 Speaker 1: Look man, oh I see you? Why why and look 2 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: over there? How is that culture? Yes? Goodness calling we 3 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:20,280 Speaker 1: hit the double digits. We officially entered double digit territory. 4 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: One of three double digit episodes. Oh yes, and um, 5 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,119 Speaker 1: that's the thing is I think that it's a huge 6 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: moment in anyone's life when they hit the double digits 7 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: for the first time. Um, and uh, you know this 8 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,239 Speaker 1: this series is sort of doing that, and so it 9 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: should be celebrated in the way I was celebrated when 10 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: I became ten years old, which was my parents got 11 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: me tickets to see maur I Carry at Madison Square Garden. 12 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: That was my first concert ever and it came on 13 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: my tent birthday because it was double digits And that's huge. 14 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: Was that not one of didn't you know at the 15 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: time that that would be and was the best day 16 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: of your life? One of the best days. I don't 17 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: think any person has ever had a gayer reaction to 18 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: me opening that was Mariah Carry Madison Square Garden tickets 19 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: and we should say they were absolutely horrendous seats, but 20 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: it didn't matter because it was my first concert ever 21 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: and it was the Heartbreaker tour where I knew the 22 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: whole gig was Mariah was going to be facing off 23 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 1: with miss Bianca. So this was huge. You know how 24 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 1: there's like a kingmaker. This was like a queer maker. 25 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: This was like queer making event, queer maker. My parents 26 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: were the queer makers in that moment. They solidified what 27 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,919 Speaker 1: was already sort of chemically brewing and all because double 28 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: digits quote unquote are a big one. We've brought this 29 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: up many times throughout the podcast. But I think very 30 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,119 Speaker 1: fun thoughts when I think of you as a child 31 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: and thinking, oh goodness, what would life have been like 32 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: if we had found each other at that age? Would 33 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: we have been friends? I think we would have. I 34 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: think we definitely would have, because I correct me if 35 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: I'm wrong. But you were like an outdoors kid, not 36 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: really know in you weren't like riding bikes, not in 37 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: the way that you're that you would associate with someone 38 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: growing up in Colorado riding bikes. Then you know what 39 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: we would have been video game friends. We would have been, 40 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,119 Speaker 1: But you don't like video games? No. As a kid, oh, 41 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: I was obsessed with video games. My I had the 42 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 1: classic mother that was like, you know what, you can't 43 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: know video games? That was all she could say to 44 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: me to ruin my life. Very classic mother, you know 45 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: what you punished, You're punished, You're punished. That She would 46 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: always lead out to it by saying, oh, you know 47 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 1: what you punished? Punished and I just got no, And 48 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: I would say, what is it? What's the punishment? Should 49 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: say you can't do video games? And I go, how 50 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: would she enforce that? She would take the console away. 51 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: I just wasn't allowed to go down there and do that. See, 52 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: this is like a fun and interesting difference you had. 53 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm gonna say, let me just go out, and 54 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: this might not be true. In fact, I don't even 55 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: think it is. We'll correct you. If you're wrong, I'll 56 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: gather you right up. If you say something wrong about 57 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 1: my family, you say, if you come from my family, 58 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 1: I'll gather you right up. I'm not saying something wrong. 59 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: I'm putting you on notice. So this is for the 60 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: purposes of this. Let's say your parents are less strict 61 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: than mine, and yet whenever they would be strict with 62 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: you and be like, no, you're grounded, you're punished, you 63 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: would actually obey them. Yes, But whenever my parents would 64 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: say my parents wouldn't let me watch Saturday Morning cartoons 65 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: for like a while, because they said that it was 66 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: like rotting my brain because I would get up at 67 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: like nine and watch all my shows all day and 68 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: they'd be like, oh my god, Bowen, it's it's ruining Bowen. 69 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: They would lock the basement door. It was one of 70 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: those button locks that you press on the knob right 71 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: and then on the other side. It's just that whole. Yeah, 72 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: for the longest time, I couldn't figure out how to 73 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: unlock it. But I need just took like a chopstick 74 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: or something, or just like it was either chopstick or 75 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: you were that defiant. So I was just like, I 76 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: don't I need to watch Digimon, I need to watch 77 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: yu gi Oh, I need to watch all my my 78 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: kids that you beat my Fox Kids programming honey, And 79 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: I would take like or like an Alan wrench and 80 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: then I would just like unlock the door and Alan wrench. Girl. 81 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: You were defiant. You were defying your parents. Yeah, I 82 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: think that what's happening here is I think I had 83 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: a scarier dad than you. My dad's personality has changed 84 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: so much from when I was younger, like especially like 85 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: when I was in like um elementary school, middle school, 86 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: Like I think it was probably the way he was disciplined, 87 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: but it was sort of it was it was not 88 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: I never never violence, but always just like threat based. 89 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: It was like you better do this thing. And I 90 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: was like, huh. And now it's so weird to even 91 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: think about the fact that he was ever that way 92 00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: because he's the most gentle person ever. But it's so interesting, like, yeah, 93 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: he's he's a sweetheart, but but he was, you know, 94 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: he was a strict parent. Like I was not allowed 95 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: in high school to be drinking at all. Like I 96 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: had a lot of social friends that like their parents 97 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: were like loose about that whatever, but that kind of 98 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: dad that was like, you may not do this, not 99 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: even a family parties. That was my dad. I had 100 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: a strict dad in that way. And my mother was 101 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: very like, that's what your father says, and she agreed. 102 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: I I believe that because so that's why I would 103 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: never defy them, because it would be it would be mine. 104 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: I would. I would steak around them and then I'd 105 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: locked the door again and pretend that I never went 106 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 1: down there. But then at times, at the times I 107 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: would be caught. It was like a big blowout, but 108 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: like the same thing with the video games, Like my 109 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: dad the first console I ever owned, because they never 110 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 1: let me get an N sixty four or Super Nintendo 111 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: or anything. The first one I was about to get 112 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 1: was in high school and at that time, the PS 113 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: two had been out for years, and I was like, 114 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: can I please buy a PS two? Fine? But then 115 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: it got out of hand in his eyes, and so 116 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: he hid the console and then I spent like forty 117 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: five minutes looking for it, found it, new wher he 118 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: had it every time, and then just like would sneak out, 119 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: sneak in, or sneak around the house, and like he 120 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: hit it in like the little section of the basement 121 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 1: that was unfinished, and I would go into that section, 122 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: know exactly where he hit it, and then just play it, 123 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: plug it in. This might be a controversial call me 124 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: for you in the moment, but I just I don't 125 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: think my house was big enough to pull anything like 126 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: that off. Like I feel like my parents would never 127 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 1: have that, they would have seen me doing it. I've 128 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: seen your childhood house, though, no, but this I lived 129 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 1: in a house before that that was like my major 130 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: video game house. And I'm telling you, like that house 131 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: was There's no way I could have gotten a way 132 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: with that. So I think you just had a big house, bitch. Honestly, 133 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: if I'm ever going to raise kids, on the off 134 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: chance that I do, I gotta raise them in a 135 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: tiny house. It cannot be too big because they get sneaky, 136 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: Because they're gonna be sneaky like you, they get sneaky. 137 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,720 Speaker 1: I need, I need to have my eye on them. 138 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: Oh and you've grown up to become an even sneakier person. Yes, sneaker. 139 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 1: How what's your what's your parenting style going to be? Well? 140 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 1: If I had children, I think I actually be a 141 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: very good parent, and I would try to be um 142 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 1: hands off about types of things that like just let 143 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: the kid experience this that the other thing. But then again, 144 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: like I don't know, because I feel like i'd be 145 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: more scared for a child that I was knowing what's 146 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: out there, because it's like worth being scared about. I 147 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: don't know. I probably also will not have children. I 148 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: probably won't, but my fears that I will want to 149 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: shape my child's personality in such a way that is 150 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: ultimately destructive to their emotional health, like I see it 151 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: now with parents where I'm just like, you are trying 152 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: to make this kid a certain person, just internally, not 153 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: even like not even like the way, like that's hard. 154 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 1: I'm just like, mmmm, you're grafting it onto them because 155 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: it's what you want, and that's unfortunately, like at the 156 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: essence of every parenting mistake, I don't know. We should 157 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: also say, though, that there truly is no right way 158 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: to do it, and it's also the hardest thing in 159 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: the world. And who are We're too childless faggots, We 160 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: are no one to see you to judge at all. 161 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: And I'm saying, like, literally, that's the reason I had 162 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: to take the question again. I tried to answer it 163 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: once and then had to take it again because this 164 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: confounds me so much. I have no idea what level 165 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: of responsibility it takes to really give your attention of 166 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: the time and resources of the time to another person, 167 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: Like that's crazy and truly hats off.

And and that was bad. And that 188 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,199 Speaker 1: was bad because I was on the spot. I was 189 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: put on the spot. You know what was one of 190 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,840 Speaker 1: the best moments in the world, Our tenth Day of culture, 191 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: Our tenth Day of Culture was a day that was 192 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: a moment that was one of the best in the world. 193 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: And it solidified something that we all had been feeling 194 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: but then was confirmed. And it was a moment that 195 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: an institution that claims to be a gatekeeper. Mm hmmm, 196 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: as they say in the biz, actually got it right. 197 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: We actually got it right. This is on the tent 198 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: Day Core March Best Actress Julia Roberts. The Oscars get 199 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 1: it right for once. Wow again. This is where we 200 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 1: might be revisiting some themes on the podcast. We've talked 201 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: about Aaron Brockovich with Hunter Harris on our own independently, 202 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: one of my favorite movies of all time. Look, this 203 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: isn't just about Aaron brock By, which has been covered 204 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: ad nauseum on this podcast. This is this is one 205 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: of the greatest films. We know it, we love it. 206 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: It's one of the great star turns in you know 207 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: movie star history, let alone best actress history. This is 208 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 1: about the moment being met with the occasion and the 209 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:24,479 Speaker 1: Oscars getting it right for once and no one disagreeing. 210 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: Universal praise, universal praise. But it wasn't a moment of 211 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 1: anyone going I don't know about that. It was a 212 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: moment that unified the world in a way we hadn't 213 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: seen really since I think since the Nazis lost. I 214 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: think since the Nazis lost the war. I do you 215 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: remember that dress? Do I remember that dress? Do you 216 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: remember her date? Benjamin Bratt? I had seen this congeniality. Oh, 217 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: I had seen it several times, and we love that 218 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: she had such a handsome date on her arm. Who 219 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: you know, did they make it? Certainly not? Certainly not? 220 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: But did I believe they were in love that night 221 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: and nothing whatever come between them and the support that 222 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: he gave her. This is one of my favorite movies. 223 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: As I've said, it's also I think one of the 224 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: best movies based on a real person, you know, and 225 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: biograph movie because they as they call biopic, as they say, 226 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: a genius one, and really it does what biopics I 227 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: think should do more, which is not trying to tell 228 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: the entire life of a person, but take a defining 229 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: moment in their life and let that speak volumes about 230 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:52,199 Speaker 1: who they are. Okay, should be the biopic way, like 231 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: for example, you know, you could you could call I 232 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: don't know, what's what's one? That was? Oh my week 233 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: with Maryland? Did you see that? This? This is just 234 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: like a moment in her life? But I think The 235 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: film captures who she was and what her life's predicament 236 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: was quite well. And I feel that this Aaron Brockovich 237 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 1: of it All, did that very same thing. And Albert Finney, 238 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: you had Aaron Eckhart had so many, so many wonderful, 239 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 1: wonderful actors. Oh my god, you had the woman, the 240 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 1: woman with the red hair who was in oh wait, yes, 241 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: the red haired woman who was in What else was 242 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: she in? She was in shoes, the woman. Okay, hold on, 243 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 1: some of our years probably know this. They're screaming. There. 244 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: She was in Brandy Cinderella. Yes, one of the sisters 245 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: in Brandy Cinderella was the one who was listen. I 246 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: just think we've gotten on the wrong foot here. She 247 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 1: was like an iconic name, Priscilla. No, that's wrong. Hold on, 248 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: Our readers know this, Hunter Harris, and she's listening. Is 249 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: yell laying at us through her sub stock Vianne Cox, Minerva. 250 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 1: And you're just saying names, Yeah, Anna, you're just saying names. Teresa, Teresa. Okay, 251 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, but that was worth it. Teresa is a 252 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: huge annoying lady. Name Karen is taken off, but Teresa, 253 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: that's a real white woman. We need to fear Teresa, 254 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: and we end readers who are named Teresa. We mean 255 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: that in the way that the name conjures up a 256 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: feeling in a movie, in the in the structure of 257 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: a movie, you see, you understand there's two women. You 258 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: have to choose one of them that you like more. 259 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Teresa. No, we love Aaron. We love Aaron. I'm sorry, 260 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. And you know who's famously named Teresa, miss 261 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 1: mother Teresa. And still we're on this podcast saying what 262 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: we're saying, and I don't think either of us are 263 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: backing down. No, but then you have people like Teresa 264 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: May and we're not gonna ever say we like her. 265 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: Kidding me, no, no, no, no, sorry, Theresa Caputo get lost. 266 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: Aaron Brockovich. I just think it's just like every scene 267 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: Julia nails it. It's crazy. Yes, And because of this, 268 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: we looked to the Oscars to sort of put the 269 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: stamp approval, and um, this is I think what this 270 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 1: is actually honestly is when I think back to my 271 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: childhood and when I got obsessed with the Oscars, this 272 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: is like the perfect moment because as a kid, you know, 273 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: there weren't too many celebrities when we were that age 274 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: was like the big ones were the big ones, and 275 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: Julia Roberts was the biggest celebrity. So her to win 276 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 1: an Oscar for a movie where she was doing all that, 277 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: it was it was again queen making moment so interesting 278 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: to think about because a lot of people will say 279 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: something like Julia Roberts is sort of the last big 280 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: movie star actress, and I don't think that's true. I 281 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: just think people are having an of distance now from 282 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: the nineties to say that was such a bygone era 283 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: that will never have again. But it's like in Julia 284 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: Roberts in the nineties, you were like, we're never going 285 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: to have it on Elizabeth Taylor. It's like it's just 286 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 1: this is just this, like twenty years from now will 287 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: be like, gosh, we'll never have another Alicia of a 288 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: candor or like Florence. You know what I'm saying, And 289 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: those are weird examples, but you know, like by Florence, 290 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: I don't buy Alicia. I know, I knew, I knew 291 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: you would say that. I don't register Alicia Candy. I 292 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 1: don't I don't know her, and yet she has an 293 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: Oscar and the Oars did. Did the Oscars get that 294 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: one right? Would you? I would say no. I would 295 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 1: say no, even not being able to remember what she 296 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: looks like. I think she. I think she won for 297 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: the Danish Girl, which was like an Eddie redmain Um 298 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 1: performance in which he played a trans woman Um and 299 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: she I believe one the supporting actress asker for that one. 300 00:16:54,000 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 1: That which what How riled up are we nowadays about 301 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 1: the Oscars just getting it wrong? And we feel like 302 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: there's just the contant. It's not as bad as the Grammys, 303 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 1: I don't think, but Oscars. I feel like there's never 304 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: there hasn't been a year in a while where everyone's like, wow, 305 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: well Parasite was was a moment where it was gotten right. 306 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: But I also feel like, while this is the way 307 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: I feel about the Oscars and pretty much any major 308 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: awards now, it's like, when they get it right, I 309 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: like to celebrate them, and when they get it wrong, 310 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: I like to be like, well, it's all fixed. Like 311 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: when something is deserved and I feel like it's getting 312 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,360 Speaker 1: a moment, I love to celebrate that, and then when 313 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: it's like a ridiculous thing that shouldn't happen, I'm like, well, 314 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 1: I mean the whole thing anyway, right, Like I can, 315 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: I can devalue these major awards like at the top 316 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 1: of a hat if I need to, But if something 317 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: I like happens, I'm like, it really was deserved.

M of course all of it. 322 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 1: But when they do something like Julia Year on your feet, 323 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: when Julia is pushed through, you're like, oh, but that's 324 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: just the system working the way it should. Yes, absolutely. Meanwhile, 325 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,160 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, they're still doing it this year, 326 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 1: and what has even come? I don't And I guess, 327 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,959 Speaker 1: like I would imagine next year will be so crowded 328 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: because everyone's gonna release their movie next year that's weighted 329 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: this year or I don't know what will happen. But 330 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: this year, I'm kind of like, are we having an oscars? 331 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: What happened they're having in person? I think they're April. 332 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: Now they're in April, right, I mean I I literally 333 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: know they're happening, Like I know they're just pushed back, 334 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 1: but it's just bizarre to me, Like, I feel like, 335 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: what are the Oscar movies quote unquote that you've seen 336 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: this year? We are in December. I think truly like 337 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: the thrill of a filmgoing experience this year for me 338 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 1: was because it's all blurring together. I'm like, oh right, like, yeah, 339 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: fucking that Charlie Starren movie that came out on Netflix. 340 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 1: I'm like the one, yeah, the Old Guard, like that 341 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: was June. And then like the last movie that I 342 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: like felt like I was like truly like enjoying was 343 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: like The Hunt. Honestly, yeah, I was like it felt 344 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: like I was like kind of like jacking into like 345 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: a movie going experience. I don't think. I don't think 346 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: I've had that this year, which is unfortunate. I mean, like, 347 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: I guess the Oscar movies are like MANK, which I 348 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 1: didn't even really know what it was, and then I 349 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: watched the preview for it and I was like, oh, 350 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: I don't want to watch that. Yeah, I mean, like 351 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: I I will because I'm sure it'll start racket up 352 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 1: nominations from places, but like, is that the Oscar movie 353 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 1: this year? The other night, I watched the movie Let 354 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: Them All Talk, which is the New Stephen movie with 355 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: another film, Yes, Diane West and Candice Bergen, and they 356 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 1: improvised basically, basically, I think a large vast majority of 357 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: the dialogue was improvised by the actors Lucas Hedges, has 358 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 1: Also and Jemma Chan and they were given like outlines 359 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: of scenes and like told to improvise based on that, 360 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: And as a result, the movie to me felt like 361 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: more of an experiment than an actual movie, A good 362 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 1: experiment that I enjoyed watching a lot of Some of 363 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: the dialogue was fun. The performances are great, but it's 364 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: just not really a tightly constructed good movie. Wasn't like 365 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 1: an art experiment that happened on HBO Max with Meryl 366 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: Streep about I mean, we were we were semi joking 367 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 1: about about Julie Roberts winning the Oscar for this being 368 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 1: a moment that united the country the world over. But 369 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: no one likes the same movies anymore. That is another thing. 370 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: I feel like those well that's not really true because 371 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: sometimes a big blackbuster movie comes along and is nominated, 372 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 1: but it doesn't happen a lot. Even when Paris I 373 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: came out, you had people be like, I'm gonna be 374 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: a devil's advocate and say that it's bad, like, yeah, 375 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 1: it's just that's just but that's just the culture now, unfortunately, 376 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 1: that's the big culture. It did feel really good to 377 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: see at least that room on television that we were 378 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: watching felt they were unanimously excited about a movie winning. 379 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,719 Speaker 1: And I think that is honestly, what's missing is just 380 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 1: that moment where like green Book, Shape of Water, Yeah, 381 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: exactly like when green Book and I mean Shape of 382 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 1: Water people say is good. But like when movies like 383 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: green Book win or like things like that, where it's 384 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: just like, what is happening? It's like, where's the unseen 385 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: majority that's that's voting for this when it happens. Sometimes 386 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: that way, it just can demystifies the whole thing because 387 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, I know, Green Book isn't the best movie. 388 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: I know, right right, I just think them a lot 389 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: in the last decade, it's been wacky as hell. Yeah, Birdman, 390 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: I remember people being like, wait, what, like it's just 391 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: been oscars. I mean we're joking in the title of 392 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 1: this day, of course, get it right for once. They 393 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: obviously have gotten it right before since then, but now, 394 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: like the conception around it. Maybe it's because we all 395 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: sort of know how the as as a as a public, 396 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: how the industry works, and how sometimes these awards are bought. 397 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: But it's like, oh but wait there there needs to 398 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 1: be like a year because what because what one that 399 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: the year the Julia one seventy it was Gladiator. I think, oh, 400 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: let's see, right, I mean I think I think the 401 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 1: Oscars were Russell Crowe, Glad Julia Roberts. And then was 402 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: that who won Supporting Actress that year? Marcia gay Harden. 403 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: For Marcia gay Harden was like the big surprise, But 404 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: I remember it was like even Gladiator too, was like 405 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:45,679 Speaker 1: you didn't really question it. It was just kind of 406 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: happening and it was a huge movie. But they don't 407 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: really make those kinds of movies that are prestige and 408 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: huge at the same time. Anyway, you really realize like 409 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: how much has changed, Like like you used to have 410 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: the industry tell you like this is a great movie 411 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 1: and people would go see it. Now it's like not anymore. 412 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: It really doesn't happen that way. I just have I 413 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: just like have not kept my ear to the ground 414 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: about like the repercussions that like Warner Brothers is going 415 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: to have on like theaters and ships or just like movies. 416 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:21,360 Speaker 1: It's like you saw Timmy shallow May's little um statement 417 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: that he made there on the end of SNL. He 418 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 1: wore a shirt that said legend legendary right right, right, 419 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 1: right right, which is the legendary is a dispute with 420 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: Warner Brothers because you know, not ever, not everyone's on 421 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: the same page about what Warner Brothers is doing about 422 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: dumping all their movies onto HBO Max. It's it's controversial. 423 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: I guess I'm worried, but it's already like the change 424 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: is already irreversible ever since, like streaming has dominated our 425 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: lives even before the pandemic. I mean, I will say this, 426 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 1: I am going to be very happy as someone who 427 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: wants to remain safe for as long as possible to 428 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: have of course, that's what I'll say. And I think 429 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:06,920 Speaker 1: that this is an inevitable and responsible thing that they're doing. Um. 430 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: While I can also see the other side, which is, 431 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: you know, it will be a shame if this hurts 432 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: the businesses of movie theater and the model of going 433 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: to the movie theater. But I really don't think it will. 434 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: I think that the industry will continue to be what 435 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 1: it's always been, which is those big blockbuster movies. People 436 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,120 Speaker 1: are going to go see them in the movie theater 437 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,959 Speaker 1: because of that experience, and other than that, people are 438 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: going to be streaming them because that ain't the fault 439 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 1: of the pandemic or this one studio. That is what's 440 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: happening with the entire film industry. So you can kick 441 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: your feet and scream and talk about like how this is, 442 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 1: you know, destroying the movie going experience, but it's been destroyed, 443 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Yeah, ever since bird Box, it's 444 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: been over. Was the meteor that crashed on the dinosaur 445 00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 1: planet of Hollywood, baby and and as they say in 446 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 1: the biz, ouch ouch I thought you were gonna say 447 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: out damn spot. Speaking of movies of the time, like 448 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 1: huge movies of the time, this is when like Armageddon 449 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 1: and Deep Impact came out. And you know, my ass 450 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: was terrified of those movies. It was very scary. It 451 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,439 Speaker 1: was as a kid watching those movies. It was very 452 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: scary to think, Wow, where we could all die um 453 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 1: as a result of a random cosmic event like huge 454 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: time for like fatalism, porn in movies, like independent day, 455 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like mass events that caused 456 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 1: death huge in the late nineties, early OTTs, and I 457 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: guess it's stopped with like not wasn't the last of them, 458 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: but it was like that was the beginning where all 459 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 1: of us had hit a wall with like, Okay, we 460 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: don't have to watch natural disasters or just like apocalypse movies. 461 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: And then it moved into post apocalyptic where that's kind 462 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: of different obviously, Yeah, but yeah, that you're right. That 463 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 1: was the nineties and the odds were like that thriving 464 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:09,360 Speaker 1: ground for those movies. Very interesting. What were we thinking 465 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: and screaming for from inside our public consciousness, our collective 466 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 1: consciousness at the time that we needed such titilating sort 467 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: of world ending scenarios kind of makes you think, huh reader, Well, anyway, 468 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: we're talking, of course, about the night that Julia Roberts 469 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 1: one best Actress signifying that the Oscar said finally for 470 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 1: one scotten it right.
