Speaker 2: to say, tgif.

15
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: Hey, I know it may be Tuesday where you are,

16
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: and maybe Wednesday where you are, and maybe Thursday where

17
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: you are, but where we are, it's Friday.

18
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: I want to say, if you're a real fan, you

19
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 2: are listening to this on a Tuesday morning, and to you,

20
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 2: I say, take a second this morning and just let

21
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 2: it be Friday. I think it's a state of mind.

22
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: The thing is, George, I fully disagree with you.

23
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 2: Wow, you're so I'm saying, you know, anyone has the

24
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 2: right to self determine however they want. You're saying, no,

25
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 2: you're either born a Tuesday or a Friday. Expand on that.

26
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: So, you know how like I'm starting to believe more

27
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: and more in like like life's inevitabilities. And I think

28
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: like a weekday, even when you're like having the day

29
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: off work or whatever, like work, like you know, whatever

30
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: it is you're up to. When it's a Monday, yeah,

31
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: you feel like it's a Monday. When it's a Tuesday,

32
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: you'll be like, you know what, this Tuesday. Maybe I'm

33
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 1: at the beach, but there's still a level of stress

34
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: where you're like, but it's Tuesday, and at any moment,

35
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: I could be called in to perform a surgery totally,

36
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: and it's just maybe it's me. I'm willing to you

37
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: know what it is something personal.

38
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: It's the emails. It's that emails come into your inbox

39
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: in normal business hours Monday through Friday, and it doesn't

40
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: matter if you are an avant garde performance artist. That

41
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: is when the emails are coming.

42
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: They emails are coming.

43
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,399
Speaker 2: That is when the emails are coming from your galleries.

44
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 2: That is when the emails are coming from your cousin

45
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 2: inviting to you her you know, betch rep party. There

46
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 2: is no way around the fact that, no matter how

47
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 2: alternative you are, the emails come during the week.

48
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: I so much of my life has been trying to

49
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: not adhere to a normal schedule. Of course it has

50
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: been I'll work at night, I'll do something on the week,

51
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: I'll have fun on a Tuesday and make up one

52
00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: on a Saturday. No, it never works. I feel bad nature.

53
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 1: I'm going into nature and people think I'm being lazy, right,

54
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: And it's like, there's simply no way around it. You

55
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: have to I'm telling every listener conform, conform to the

56
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: work week, start at nine am and at six pm.

57
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 2: You know what I always think and at dinners along

58
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 2: those lines is like, so often, you know, I work

59
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 2: better at night, and so often I will be like

60
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 2: I'll have a deadline, let's say, and I'll be up

61
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 2: at night working and then that will cause me to

62
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 2: wake up later the next morning. Now, of course my

63
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 2: romantic partner is waking up earlier. I wake up I

64
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: feel the need to basically say, by the way, I

65
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: worked last night, that's why I'm getting up now. Just

66
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 2: by the way, in case anyone was wondering, I worked

67
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: last night, and then suddenly you were starting at a

68
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 2: disadvantage because already you are trying to justify what your

69
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 2: own existence as though you're not human because you woke

70
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 2: up at ten thirty.

71
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: Oh my god. The way that people that have jobs

72
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: that simply are from nine to six get to be

73
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: lazy all day, yeah, and still get the credit of

74
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: having all day. Meanwhile, I'm getting emails literally all the time.

75
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: No one's giving me credit for that. The emails are

76
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: such a stress on me and my psyche, and it's

77
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: like I just had to put up with it.

78
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 2: It's crazy. The noise is difficult to drown out, and yeah,

79
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 2: that's what I Yeah, if you're a professional and you're

80
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 2: sending me an email, that's noise to me because it's

81
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 2: not art.

82
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: I've started to even give up on the concept of vacation.

83
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 2: Wow, because you.

84
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 1: Can't take a vacation from emails. The Internet is still

85
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: there and it's still arriving.

86
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 2: By the way, people say, oh, you can't finish a

87
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 2: book because you're addicted to your phone. That's not true.

88
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 2: I can't finish a book because of all the emails,

89
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 2: And that is not my fault for being like addicted

90
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 2: to my phone. That is, in fact, your fault for

91
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 2: sending me emails. Most of the notifications I get on

92
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 2: my phone are not because I'm like following some YouTuber.

93
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 2: They're first of all the New York Times trying to

94
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 2: like get money from me, even on the weekend. And

95
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 2: then they are notifying me about something in the style section.

96
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 2: I'm sorry if it's not a war, I don't want

97
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 2: to hear about it on a Saturday morning.

98
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: This is my pitch, AI, how about you be useful

99
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: and combine all my emails into one email every day,

100
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: a diadream, a digest, and I'll just respond.

101
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 2: What's going on with Sam?

102
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, what's what's going on with my career?

103
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 2: Yeah? I would actually lovely digest of what's going on

104
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 2: with my career. That would solve so many problems.

105
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: And if it's like no, you literally, like if every

106
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: day it was like, well, just are you free Wednesday

107
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: at five, I'd be like yes, yeah, and then it

108
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 1: would be like okay, and then it's done. I don't.

109
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: I can't deal with it.

110
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 2: And by the way, government funded assistance, when are we

111
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,359
Speaker 2: getting that? Why don't I have a spunky girl named

112
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 2: Rachel spelled weird maybe with a why that is my

113
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 2: assistant and I don't have to pay her, but she

114
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 2: still gets health insurance and makes money.

115
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 1: Why don't I have Rachel?

116
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 2: There should be I think I've maybe honestly already said

117
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 2: this on the podcast. But in the same way that

118
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 2: other countries have mandatory military service, there should be one

119
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 2: year where your mandatory service is being a struggling writer

120
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 2: performer's assistant and the government pays you, and it's a

121
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 2: way to pay your dues before college. It's it's a gap, yeap.

122
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: I think that's genius. I kind of love watching the

123
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: work day, Like like every day I'm like, okay, I

124
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 1: have eight solid hours to do whatever I want. And

125
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: then it's like, now it's seven hours. Like the work

126
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: day is.

127
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 2: A total of maybe forty five minutes. Like the morning

128
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: doesn't count because you're having breakfast, then it's lunch, and

129
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 2: then after that while you're tired.

130
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: It's the most insane thing. And I'll be like, okay,

131
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: I have one hour left, let's really bring it home. Yeah,

132
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 1: and I'll like then all sudden spend thirty minutes of

133
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: the hour looking in my Google Drive for any document

134
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: that could possibly be added to.

135
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 2: No, I think pretty much. It's eleven forty five am

136
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 2: to twelve thirty pm is like the forty five minute

137
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 2: period where you sort of work because you're like, well,

138
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 2: I can't go into lunch having done nothing. Then, of

139
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 2: course lunch lasts approximately three hours. I mean you have

140
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,919
Speaker 2: to digest for it to be over and then and

141
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 2: then by that time you're like, okay, well, if I

142
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 2: was in Spain, I would have my siesta now. But

143
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 2: I guess since I'm in this uber capitalist society, I

144
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 2: have to send more fucking emails.

145
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I guess where we are. It's Friday.

146
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, but where we are it's actually Friday.

147
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: And not to mention, it's two fifty two on a Friday,

148
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: which is actually basically seven PM's.

149
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 2: Basically seven pm. We're basically drunk. We're doing overtime doing cocaine.

150
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 2: We're doing lines of cocaine off of this table at

151
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 2: iHeartMedia and along with our good friend who was on

152
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: upwards of fifteen different drugs right now, please welcome Marybeth Brown.

153
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 3: Hey, you guys, an electric opening conversation. I had so

154
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 3: many thoughts as you were talking, but I've forgotten them

155
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 3: all because of all the drugs, all the drugs, So

156
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 3: just know that I was with you all the way. Yeah,

157
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 3: And I think ultimately it's capitalism. If I had to

158
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 3: put a word on it, like label it, which I

159
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 3: know we don't want to do anymore, but it's capitalism.

160
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 3: It's society.

161
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 2: Well yeah, I mean society. To put a label on

162
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 2: a financial system just feels so.

163
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 3: It feels wrong, wrong, whatever, in a box in a way,

164
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 3: and then there's no room to grow. And I think

165
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 3: that's our problem right now. So true, we're so stuck

166
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 3: in this in this box.

167
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 2: You know, thinking systemically. It's so then you're like, what's

168
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: the point of me reading this article about like a

169
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 2: specific industry and it's all the same problems.

170
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 3: It's the same problems it is. I mean, look at us,

171
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 3: look at us now in this industry. And then you

172
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 3: have Walmart, which I recently saw a video about that's

173
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 3: a really good point.

174
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: Congrats on that, by the way. You have our.

175
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: Industry and our industry Walmart.

176
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 3: And then others and the Federal Reserve, the Federal Reserve.

177
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 1: I met someone recently who works at the Federal No,

178
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: and I was like, what do you do? And they're

179
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: like chemical engineer and I was like, I don't know

180
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: what to do with this. Have you ever just met

181
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: someone that's like completely different from.

182
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 3: You and you're like, okay, Well, it's like, what's your

183
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 3: pay structure? That's your boss?

184
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, like what's the is it the President?

185
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: What are you up to.

186
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 3: NASA? Are you working in the White House?

187
00:08:58,720 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: Have an assistant? Like?

188
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 3: What's are they federally funded? Are you federal? Like saying

189
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 3: I wants a.

190
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: Chemical engineer, like a good one or a bad one,

191
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 1: Like I'm sure there's evil vibes potentially.

192
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 3: Was this in New York?

193
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 1: It was in Vermont?

194
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,719
Speaker 3: Okay, that makes sense, I guess. I just don't think

195
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 3: you'd meet one here.

196
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: No, there aren't chemicals here.

197
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 3: No, and there aren't engineers.

198
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: You know.

199
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 2: Both my parents have PhDs in engineering, and a big

200
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 2: part of my origin story was escaping the tyranny of

201
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 2: engineering as essentially the religion of the household. My mom

202
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 2: would say things like we'll just get an engineering degree

203
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 2: and then if you want, you can go to law school.

204
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 2: Like she was just like, well, it's just a good

205
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,839
Speaker 2: basis to have, like no matter what you end up doing, like.

206
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:36,719
Speaker 3: Do you want a background in that?

207
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 2: You want? You want a background engineering? But and then

208
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 2: she would even say things like, you know, engineering is

209
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 2: not actually that lucrative, but it's just good to have

210
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,679
Speaker 2: as like an intellectual background. I was like, okay, so

211
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 2: you want me to She was like yeah, you can,

212
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 2: like still if you want to do humanities or whatever,

213
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: like do engineering and then go to business school. And

214
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, well that's not humanity.

215
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 3: The listeners can't see this, but George just put humanities

216
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 3: in quotes as well. They were very small air quotes

217
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 3: down by the bottom of the microphone, but I saw that.

218
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: But you know, but it's like I spent my whole

219
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,439
Speaker 2: life trying to escape that. And even still, like when

220
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 2: you guys just now were like, what even is engineering?

221
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 2: I was like ignorant. There's so deep seated where I'm like, well,

222
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 2: it's the one thing that's important. I might not have

223
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 2: chosen to do it because I'm useless. Wow, it's crazy.

224
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 2: It's like religion podcasts.

225
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 3: Does your mom and dad know that you have a podcast, Yes, and.

226
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 2: They love that they know about it, for sure.

227
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 3: I wish they could see where we are, I know.

228
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 2: I do think actually that would impress my parents if really,

229
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 2: if they were like, oh, it's an office that looks expensive.

230
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,319
Speaker 3: There's like, there's eyes downstairs.

231
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 2: Guess what if you're not on the list, you.

232
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: Can't you're not getting in and even if you are

233
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:48,679
Speaker 1: living slightly misspelled.

234
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:51,839
Speaker 3: Oh I had to do the whole. I think it's

235
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 3: under married that. Yeah, my name's Mary Elizabeth. Oh yeah,

236
00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 3: it confuses people. It's confusing, but that was my parents and.

237
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 2: Their choice is valid, and their choice is valid.

238
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

239
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 2: Wow, well Merebith. You haven't been here in like so long.

240
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 2: I mean you were one of our sort of first

241
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 2: batch of guests.

242
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 3: Yes, and I will say you've totally gone corporate, which

243
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 3: I love. Yes, thank you and also crazy that I'm

244
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 3: the first person you've ever had on twice.

245
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you wanted to be someone special.

246
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think that's cool. And I love that

247
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 3: you haven't had me on the live show because I

248
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 3: know you're waiting for your biggest show ever. Got well

249
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 3: at Carnegie Hall, right right right? I mean my friends.

250
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 2: Some people could point out that we've in fact asked

251
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 2: you multiple times if you're in town, for one. The

252
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 2: answer has always been no, but but should make us

253
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 2: the bad guys.

254
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 3: Sure, yeah, it's Friday somewhere.

255
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 2: It is true that we haven't had you on for sure.

256
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 3: This is what I wanted to start. Public Beech.

257
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,840
Speaker 2: Thank you, thank though. I love public Babe, thank you.

258
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 3: It's good to be back, though. I feel like so

259
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 3: last time we spoke, because we haven't spoken since.

260
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: I like to keep everybody on the n't.

261
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 3: I don't like to mix business and plan.

262
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 2: And before that we were friends. But since then we

263
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 2: have not.

264
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 3: To do someone's podcast. It sort of changes relationships. But

265
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 3: it was over Zoom, but we weren't even having cameras

266
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 3: on and it was like in the pandemic. I was

267
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 3: in England.

268
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 2: It was very much in the pandemic.

269
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: Did we not have cameras on?

270
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 2: Well, we didn't.

271
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 3: Film it, right, but I don't even think we I

272
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 3: don't remember having cameras on. I feel like we couldn't

273
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 3: have cameras on.

274
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 2: Oh I don't remember.

275
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 3: It's just good to look at you and talk to you.

276
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, definitely, Yeah, it's almost all of our

277
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 2: other guests we had cameras on, but for you, we

278
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 2: were like Noah, we were like, I don't need to

279
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 2: see that.

280
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 3: Okay, I see how it is. Guys. Bully Bully the

281
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: Bye Girl. A by girl walks into a podcast studio,

282
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 3: two gay guys behind the mics.

283
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 1: Can I tell you?

284
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 2: Can I tell you something? Sort of speaking about straight culture.

285
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 2: You're doing one of the sexiest things a straight woman

286
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 2: can do, and I know you don't identify as straight,

287
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 2: which is wearing an oversized white button down.

288
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you.

289
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 3: It's yeah, it's so. It is an oversized white button down,

290
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 3: and thank you for saying that. It also has a

291
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 3: slit up the back. This is designed for women's designed

292
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,320
Speaker 3: for anyone, but it's not necessarily sure designed for the

293
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 3: classic male silhouette. Well, I don't want to gender the shirwau.

294
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 3: I don't want to get in trouble.

295
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: Well, I think that's what's so funny about clothing is

296
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: it'll be like, well, it's for everyone.

297
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 2: Come on, let's just.

298
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 3: Say they had a consumer in mind and they designed it,

299
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,959
Speaker 3: and that's okay. It's like whatever, I want to be respectful,

300
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 3: you know.

301
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 2: What, I sometimes will do is all sometimes, because I

302
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 2: really think there's such power in being a woman with

303
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 2: an oversized way button now that sometimes I will want

304
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 2: to emulate that and purchase an oversized way button down

305
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 2: the same.

306
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 1: But you're a man, like the button you have to

307
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 1: get would be gigantic. You are to be oversized.

308
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 2: But then even if it is oversized, you're not getting

309
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 2: that same level of sexiness.

310
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 3: Because I think you are. I'd actually argue interesting, I.

311
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 2: Think you only I think you can as a gay guy.

312
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 2: You can maybe get it when you're also wearing like

313
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 2: short shorts.

314
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: You know the game. I can do. What an oversized sweatshirt,

315
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: an oversized button down, It's gonna look like risky business.

316
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

317
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right.

318
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 3: I'm ready to see it, is all I'm saying. Yeah,

319
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,560
Speaker 3: how about you let me be the judge next time

320
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 3: I come back. I want you to looking over fashion

321
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 3: show of.

322
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 2: Gay guys and you get to judge them. Yes, we've

323
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 2: already coined the Complex Woman Awards, which are for women

324
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 2: and then judged by gay men. We should do the opposite. Yeah,

325
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 2: so we decide who is the most like I'm so democratic. Yeah,

326
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 2: flip it, we flip it. Halfway through, halfway, we have

327
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 2: an intermission, We have an intermission, and then exactly and

328
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 2: then it's choice of all the complex women judge the

329
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 2: gay guys.

330
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, huh, I'm excited. I'll be front row. That sounds amazing,

331
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 3: like six point five six point five, Unless you impress me.

332
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 2: The shirt could have been bigger. I'm not gonna lie.

333
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I want to see I want to see

334
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 3: like playing with proportions and stuff too, So of course

335
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 3: it's not gonna be just based on how big the

336
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 3: shirt is, although that will be a big, big part

337
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 3: of it, the scoring and all that.

338
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

339
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 2: What do you like to see in a gay guy

340
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 2: as a fan?

341
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 3: As a fan, I just like to see a lust

342
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 3: for life. Yeah, and I like to see an effort

343
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 3: sure in appearance. I think that's good for everyone. And

344
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 3: then I also like to see that they think they're chill,

345
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 3: but they're not totally.

346
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 2: That's key, Yeah, that's key.

347
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. Do you think we think we're chill but aren't.

348
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 2: Yes?

349
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's so funny to think I'm chill

350
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: even for a moment, because the way that I get

351
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: cranky at the slightest stuff is insane.

352
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 3: It's actually you could say not chill. It's the opposite

353
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 3: of chill.

354
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: Famously.

355
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 2: Wow, I've that you are so spot on that gi

356
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 2: guys all think they're chilled, but they aren't.

357
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 3: I can't take credit for that, but I can't say

358
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:47,840
Speaker 3: who said it either.

359
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 2: It was a famous person, Yeah.

360
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 3: It was, you know. I mean, I can't confirm, sure,

361
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 3: I can't confirm. I'll tell you off the record.

362
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 1: Okay, great, Wow, Well, Mary Beth, are you feeling in

363
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: the Friday spirit?

364
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 3: I would say that I am. I also I am glad

365
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 3: you acknowledge what time it is, because this is midnight.

366
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 3: It starts podcasting goes in the podcasting space. Anything after

367
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 3: like one pm is as midnight and night.

368
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 2: Sure do you are you a morning recording or recording?

369
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 3: Yes?

370
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 2: Oh we are not the hard way, not like oh

371
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 2: because you're too tired. Yeah.

372
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 3: But I think it's just like we start to get

373
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 3: a little loopy, which like there's a fine line of

374
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 3: like how loopy too loopy? And I think we do

375
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 3: our best work sort of between ten and one.

376
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 2: Well, the thing is, regardless of what your job is,

377
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 2: even if it's just sending emails, your best work is

378
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,440
Speaker 2: done when you're drinking coffee. Yeah, and that's just sort

379
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 2: of what it comes down to. And I personally can't

380
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 2: drink coffee in the afternoon. You're disagreeing.

381
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: No, I'm listening. I'm active listening, and I'm seeing how

382
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: it feels in my mind.

383
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 2: I feel like you can do good work without being

384
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 2: in the process of drinking coffee.

385
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: Well, I think I have a different schedule than you

386
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: because I don't drink coffee until after I've into the gym.

387
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: So often I don't drink I wake up, walk the dog,

388
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: go to the gym, and then by this time it's noon,

389
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 1: I'm eating lunch, still haven't had coffee. Can't believe this,

390
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: And then at like one pm I have coffee. That

391
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,639
Speaker 1: is nuts. I mean, it doesn't feel good every day

392
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: when am I getting my coffee?

393
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 3: No, wonder you're not chill I've been in the afternoon.

394
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 2: You're literally like three when I heard Big Cup asleep

395
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 2: in the morning, barely able to form a sentence, and

396
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 2: then wired in the afternoon when everyone else is coming

397
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 2: down from their coffee.

398
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's tough. I mean, this is I'm trying to

399
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: fight the system every day and it's just I mean,

400
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 1: I'm exhausted.

401
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 3: You're the counterculture.

402
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, literally, counterculture coffee.

403
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 3: That's what I wanted to do a brand tie in

404
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 3: for my sponsors, counterculture coffee, counter the culture.

405
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 2: With coffee coffee.

406
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: Exactly.

407
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 3: How are you guys? Are you guys doing shows lately?

408
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 2: What's the vibe or are we doing comedy talk?

409
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: Yeah?

410
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 3: I was just wondering.

411
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 2: You know, I'm actually in my doing shows era.

412
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,919
Speaker 3: Okay, this is huge. I'm I'm I'm figuring out if

413
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 3: I want to do it again or.

414
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,960
Speaker 2: Not because now you're a film star.

415
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 3: Well, we can't talk about it. That's the story which

416
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 3: I am not able to talk about at this time.

417
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 3: But it's also just I think I don't I think

418
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 3: it's a dying art.

419
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 2: Can I tell you something? As your close friend, I

420
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 2: think this is maybe something you don't recognize in yourself.

421
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 2: Every single time we talk, you are essentially in the

422
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 2: process of quitting. Yeah.

423
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 3: I love that.

424
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 2: It's literally like that's like your number one talking point

425
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,080
Speaker 2: because we get together and you're like, what are we

426
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 2: even doing?

427
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,679
Speaker 3: But what are we doing? And someone can ask that

428
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 3: I won't quit, I won't be in the pros thing.

429
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,440
Speaker 3: I'm loudly quitting you know, quiet quitting, which I've never

430
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 3: read about, and I don't know what it means. I'm

431
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 3: just using context with yeah, loud quitting, where I just

432
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,679
Speaker 3: talk about it incessantly.

433
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 2: I don't say in the beginning of our friendship, I

434
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:45,719
Speaker 2: was always like, oh my gosh, she's going to do it,

435
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 2: and now I don't believe you.

436
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 3: Well, I'm obviously not going to do it. I'm not

437
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 3: quitting stand up. I just haven't been doing as much.

438
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 2: I think it's sort of what motivates you is the

439
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:55,399
Speaker 2: excitement of like, this.

440
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: Is going to be the last one.

441
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.

442
00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,440
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of people. There have been

443
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 1: many people my life that have been like, I'm quitting comedy,

444
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 1: and then the next day they had like the biggest

445
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 1: job ever.

446
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 2: And I've sort of been like, maybe that's the secret.

447
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: Maybe that's the secret to be like, no, I'm not

448
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: committed to this, so if I don't get a job

449
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: like in the next week, I'm out. Save them.

450
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 3: They're tempting fate. But I think I just mean stand

451
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 3: up specifically is a live performance aspect.

452
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 2: Yes, well, I'm of course coming out of an explosive

453
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 2: show that you were not at.

454
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 3: I was not there I was, I was ill and

455
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,479
Speaker 3: I take full responsibility. Or of course course I really do.

456
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:35,920
Speaker 1: Sure, I think, but with all the strikes, I actually

457
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,439
Speaker 1: feel like stand up is back. I agree.

458
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 2: I think it's never been more back. I am literally

459
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,360
Speaker 2: about I want to start a monthly show. I want

460
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 2: to I'm booking la dates. I am maybe even going

461
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 2: to Chicago by myself outside of the pod and doing

462
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 2: like I am ready to be back.

463
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 3: This is a lot to take.

464
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 2: And by the way, I've never believed in in person

465
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 2: embodied live performance more. I'm I'm so. I mean, of

466
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,400
Speaker 2: course we have to keep posting our Instagram reils, of course.

467
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 3: Which I don't do. I've stay, we do and they fly.

468
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 2: They fought everything. But it's good because we're employing upwards

469
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 2: of fifteen people to shoot them. Oh you mean of

470
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 2: the product you guys post?

471
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 3: Oh no, we post. We do post.

472
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: We dabble in that. Yeah, we don't post up clips yet.

473
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I don't know if you know, people

474
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 2: say you have to, this is like whatever, I'm actually

475
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 2: just going to be confident about this and not do

476
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 2: the whole thing of like, no one cares about this,

477
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 2: but I'll say it anyway.

478
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 3: So you can cut this if you have no this

479
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 3: is live, we're streaming live.

480
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:43,439
Speaker 2: Oh in that case, we're streaming live. No, I am.

481
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 2: So what people do, there's a peek behind the curtain.

482
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 1: You know.

483
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 2: What people do is they don't want to burn material

484
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:50,880
Speaker 2: on Instagram, so they're not going to post like their

485
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 2: actual jokes that they spend years of their life writing.

486
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 2: So what they do is they do crowd work and

487
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,360
Speaker 2: post clips of crowd work. You don't tell us, yeah,

488
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 2: but then it's like you are, but then you are.

489
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 2: Suddenly there's so much pressure to do videotape worthy crowd

490
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 2: work every time.

491
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 3: Well, it's not always videotape worthy just because people are

492
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 3: taping deo tape worthy. I'd say that, and I'll say

493
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,640
Speaker 3: it again if I have to. But I just think

494
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 3: there's this pressure now, especially on newer comedians, to post, post, post,

495
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 3: and it's like, I think, just get good at it first,

496
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 3: and then I don't know. I'm just like, I'm so

497
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 3: sick of it. I'm sick of seeing it. I'm sick

498
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 3: of seeing a one pixel resolution video with subtitles where

499
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 3: I can't hear anything, and I can hear the the

500
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 3: only thing I can hear is the bartender shaking the

501
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 3: ice in the back and I'm I'm watching crowd work

502
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 3: and there's no laughs.

503
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 2: Well, it's also the no laughs thing.

504
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 1: It's like, well, I'm kind of obsessed with well. To

505
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:51,199
Speaker 1: be honest, I remember when I'm posting, when people are

506
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: fully flopping and being like whatever I'm going to post it,

507
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, you're a braver than anyone I've ever met.

508
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 3: Like, not bravery, that's mental well not, what is it?

509
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 3: Mental illness?

510
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: That's what's the word.

511
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 2: What's that therapy speak, gen Z, little Mermaid? What's the

512
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 2: word mental illness?

513
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 3: I did not mean to make this an inside baseball

514
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 3: no no, no, no, no, no no.

515
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 2: I love it because it really is. It's the changing

516
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,199
Speaker 2: winds of time where it's like I remember back when

517
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 2: I used to apply it to perform a comedy festivals.

518
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,080
Speaker 2: There was so much pressure on getting what's called a

519
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,240
Speaker 2: good tape. You want a good tape and it's like

520
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 2: five to seven minutes of you doing a set and

521
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 2: you sound good, the audience is clear, whatever, and you

522
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 2: would spend months like taping many sets so you could

523
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 2: find a good one. And now people are boasting bad

524
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 2: crowd work, like how far we've come.

525
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 3: I know, I know, but to me, that's a sign.

526
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 3: That's like signifying some a bad shift. Yeah, but you

527
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,400
Speaker 3: think it's it will black and better than ever.

528
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 1: This is obviously not true, but I'm saying it as

529
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: fact and still standing by it, which I love that amazing.

530
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: I love to spread misinformation. But and maybe I've talked

531
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 1: about this on the main HOB but maybe we've just

532
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: talked about it to each other where I actually think

533
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,640
Speaker 1: now it's almost chic to not have like fifty five

534
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: million Instagram followers, because like the people that have it,

535
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: like who are not like literally in TV and film

536
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 1: and sort of like well you got there by weird

537
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: like ways.

538
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 2: Well, and inevitably all of their content is bad. Yeah yeah,

539
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 2: But also okay, to your point about how you know

540
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 2: videos are bad and clips are bad, That is why

541
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,199
Speaker 2: I have never believed in live performance more because then

542
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,199
Speaker 2: you're like, you are scrolling through all this shit every day,

543
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 2: you're literally putting rotten food into your mouth and then

544
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 2: shitting shitting it out, and then finally gets to be

545
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 2: seven thirty pm and you're like, finally I can go

546
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 2: to Union Hall.

547
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 3: Yeah.

548
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 1: No, comedy.

549
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 3: But I feel like online people who perform for the

550
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 3: audience that's in the room are not like there's no rewards.

551
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 1: It's oh, honey, you're in or you're not.

552
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 3: And I think that's you know what it should know.

553
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 2: It's not scalable, but I.

554
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 3: Feel like, you know, I wish everyone the best is always,

555
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 3: so you're contributing to the dot. If you're contributing to

556
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 3: the death of stand up, then like you're on you're

557
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 3: on a list, you're on my list.

558
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you're making Merry Beth quick.

559
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're sort of pushing.

560
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 2: You're on the lineup honey, and you're up next.

561
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Well I feel yeah, I guess like

562
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 3: if also, here's what I will say, if you are

563
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 3: offended by this, then you are the problem. Because people

564
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 3: who are posting good clips of not crowd work are

565
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 3: not going to be offended by this because we're not

566
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,640
Speaker 3: talking about them. But if you know you're posting crowd

567
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 3: work where no one's laughing, this is this message is

568
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 3: for you. Yeah, And I have no qualms with that

569
00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 3: because if you feel like you've all into that, then

570
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 3: you should think about it.

571
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 2: And that's the final word on that.

572
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 3: And that's the final word on that, and thank you

573
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 3: so much for listening, you guys.

574
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: Our first second, Yeah, I just have to say I

575
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: loved Comedy Corner.

576
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 2: So you know Comedy Corner.

577
00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 3: I know.

578
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 2: I think we are both good about doing it only

579
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 2: once every few episodes, and it was time because we

580
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 2: needed to have a check in about the comedy industry,

581
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 2: especially now with everything going well, with everything.

582
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 3: Going on, with everything going on, I mean, I mean, it's.

583
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 2: Such a funny. It's think about the idea, like the

584
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 2: identity of a comedy fan. Have you ever met a

585
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 2: comedy fan? Well, there's nothing more foreign to me.

586
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: Well, weren't you one, can't you remember? Yes? I was, Yes,

587
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 1: I want to go to.

588
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 3: The comedy cell. Yes, at the time, and I.

589
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 2: Was obsessed with I would listen to comedy albums like

590
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 2: you know, we didn't have podcasts back then.

591
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: We did.

592
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 2: We had records there, vinyl, I mean a new art.

593
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 2: I had to burn the tapes and I said, you know,

594
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 2: Maria Bamford would come on and I would say, press

595
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 2: the record. But now, I mean, people don't know, and

596
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,640
Speaker 2: now they have reel as well. Honey, you know it's

597
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 2: not real recorded comedy on your phone on your phone.

598
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 3: It's not it's not how it's meant to be. No,

599
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 3: it really it's as long as we don't give in

600
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 3: which I've been tempted, but I'm trying.

601
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: It is.

602
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 2: It's a uniquely comedy problem, I would say, because it's like,

603
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 2: if you're a musician, it's not like you're sharing clips

604
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 2: of like but it's a music problem too.

605
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 1: It's not as much like reels, but like TikTok. It's

606
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: like everyone's trying to make their songs go viral, but

607
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: not even like it's not the full song. It's like

608
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: literally like a thirty second clip and they're like doing

609
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,399
Speaker 1: a silly dance like and sometimes it catches, sometimes it doesn't,

610
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: and it's annoying.

611
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 3: I guess you could say musicians and comedians have it

612
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 3: harder than anyone right now.

613
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 1: You don't see doctors.

614
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, doctors are well, they are are like, don't you

615
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 2: have enough?

616
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 3: You know, my dad was a doctor for like forty years,

617
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 3: never once went viral, had one career.

618
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,880
Speaker 2: That's so sad amazing. You have to send money back

619
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 2: or yeah I do.

620
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,399
Speaker 3: I'm caring for the mortgage right now. I mean he

621
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 3: got to chief of surgery never once went viral. I'm

622
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 3: just saying you have to make videos.

623
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,639
Speaker 1: Like having a lot of social media, it doesn't mean

624
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: you can beatiz and mean you can a good doctor.

625
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes having a lot means you're a bad doctor.

626
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, and maybe you're not focusing on treating patients.

627
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're focused on the people viewing and not the

628
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: heart surgery.

629
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 3: Right that you're in the middle of doing live streaming anyway,

630
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:11,639
Speaker 3: it's an interesting shift right now.

631
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 1: I mean I can't even The thing is doctors do

632
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 1: live stream well, I.

633
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 2: Mean crazy, no, But it's just it really is just

634
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 2: the human condition, which is that you can be a

635
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 2: doctor and still want to go viral like that is

636
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 2: all you want.

637
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it's one of the saddest things. Yeah, people

638
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: need to practice. If you're listening to this and you're

639
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 1: a doctor, practice some gratitude you probably have literally and

640
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: practice medicine. You work so hard to get to where

641
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 1: you are. Believe in yourself, believe in your craft, and

642
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 1: be happy with what you are. You don't need to

643
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:47,359
Speaker 1: be able to hypen it. You don't need to be

644
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: a doctor slash musician, slash model. Want to just be

645
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: a doctor in slash search.

646
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 2: One of the biggest mistakes in our culture was democratizing media.

647
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 2: Remember the Time magazine cover where it was like the

648
00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:59,399
Speaker 2: person of the Year is you and it was a mirror.

649
00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 2: Do you know what I'm talking about?

650
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 3: This is maybe like two sounds like something from BoJack Horsemen,

651
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 3: though they did a similar campaign. Well, you know what

652
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,879
Speaker 3: I always say, you are a secretary.

653
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I always say. Life imitates a art.

654
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 2: I've always said that I sell merged it. That's specials

655
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 2: my special and it's all on Instagram reels, in ten

656
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 2: second clips, and none of it is going viral unfortunately,

657
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 2: which is huge. But literally that was the turning point.

658
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 2: It's like, because people celebrated that, they said, oh good,

659
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 2: we democratize everything. Guess what not everything needs to be democratized.

660
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 3: I agree. I think there's a level of democratization. And

661
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 3: then we should stop.

662
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 2: Correct.

663
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, ell should we do our first second?

664
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 2: Let's do it, Marybeth. Our first segment is called straight Shooters,

665
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 2: and in this segment, we gauge your familiarity with and

666
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,080
Speaker 2: complicity in straight culture by asking you a series of

667
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 2: rapid fire questions where you have to choose one thing

668
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 2: or another thing. And the one rule is you can't

669
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 2: ask any follow up questions about how the game works,

670
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 2: because if you do, we will quite literally injure ourselves

671
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 2: with how angry, because we'll ruin our.

672
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: Singing voices, which we value. Will never do that to

673
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: you lives.

674
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 2: Okay, Sam take it away?

675
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: Okay, Mary both, I'm getting Starbucks or I'm giving.

676
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 3: No fucks, giving no fucks Marybeth.

677
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 2: Having good morals or having bad ibs.

678
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 1: Having bad ibs okay, Sidney Sweeney or Sweeney Todd.

679
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 3: I know this is wrong, but I'm saying Sidney Sweeney okay.

680
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 2: Saying we're pregnant, or saying she's president, She's.

681
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: President, Okay, make a wish foundation or shake a fist

682
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: and frustration.

683
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 3: God, that's a really hard one. I would say, make

684
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 3: a wish foundation.

685
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 2: Oh okay. Spreading misinformation about vaccines, or passing legislation supporting

686
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 2: those who lack financial means.

687
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 3: Passing legislation to support those who lack fins, Okay, Okay,

688
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 3: she's woke, Okay, four on the floor, crazy eights or

689
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 3: sixteen candles, sixteen candles.

690
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 2: Wow, Being a boss bitch or bleeding from a deadly.

691
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 3: Itch unfortunately leaning from the Deadly Air, you know, And

692
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 3: I want to clarify that I didn't mean Sidney Sweeney

693
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 3: is wrong like point blank. I just mean for the game.

694
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 3: I think that might be the straight answer.

695
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 1: Well, no, I actually think you chose right in our

696
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: current celebrity you've obsessed climate.

697
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 3: Okay.

698
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: I would say if someone said to me save one

699
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 1: of these things, I would erase Sweeney Todd from all

700
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,239
Speaker 1: of culture and keep Sidney Sweeney. And I know it's

701
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: short sighted totally, but it's how I feel. Right.

702
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 3: We don't know what the effect would be.

703
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 2: Well, Sidney has more of a future where Sweeney Todd

704
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 2: is in the Todd Sick nostalogia. You are, you are

705
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 2: like remember musicals. It's like, shut up, let Sidney sweety

706
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 2: do reality It's me guess you want.

707
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 3: And I would watch that because Reality one was fabulous.

708
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 2: That's what I hear.

709
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 3: It's really really like this film.

710
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 2: People love it. People love the film more because you.

711
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 3: Can tell your parents to watch it. You can tell

712
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 3: your lover to watch it, you can tell your niece.

713
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 3: It's sort of cross generational.

714
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: Oh wow, And so for you a good movie as

715
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 1: a movie you can tell other people to watch, not

716
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 1: something that you personally.

717
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 3: I endorse it because I enjoy it, and that's why

718
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 3: I say you should watch it, just like I tell

719
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 3: everyone to watch Baywatch, and in all earnestness, it's one

720
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 3: of the best comedies come out in the last Yeah.

721
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: No, I have to say this is sort of the

722
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: opposite of the reality movie where you're the only person

723
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: I've ever heard say this in my entire life.

724
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 3: Well, I just want to say that people like to

725
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 3: keep blockbuster movies down, but I'm not none on my watch.

726
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 2: Oh, you will not hear that from us. We are

727
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 2: all in them.

728
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 1: We are pro monoculture. That's all we want.

729
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 3: I think you need to see bay Watch. It's not

730
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 3: just it's not just Zac Guy Fron, it's also the

731
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 3: rock Rock Alexandra di Dario, Kelly Rohbach, Sports Illustrated swimsuit

732
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 3: model Kelly Warbach's and John Bass.

733
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 2: Maybe they're not allowed to promote films. We're in a strike.

734
00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: We thought, can you leave it, We'll replace it with

735
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 1: a book title.

736
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 3: I was just amongst friends.

737
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,040
Speaker 2: Oh my god, we're already getting emails kick her out.

738
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 3: I didn't mean to cross the picket line. Wow, So

739
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 3: I can't talk about I actually did want to know this.

740
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 3: And since you guys are striking, so you can't talk

741
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 3: about movies other people.

742
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:09,480
Speaker 2: Well, for I think, to be safe, we are pretending

743
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 2: as those movies don't exist. You can't address except the

744
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 2: reality based because guess why it transcends film and it's

745
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 2: more of a book.

746
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 3: Well, it's based on a transfer, based on.

747
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 2: A transcript turned into a you know, I did not

748
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 2: know this, Sam. The whole thing with reality, which was

749
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,960
Speaker 2: first a play called I Think This Is Not a

750
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 2: Room was the play. It's literally word for word the

751
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,480
Speaker 2: transfer when she was when she was detained, well, she

752
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 2: was question question, interrogated, and so literally the entire thing

753
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 2: is word for the transcript. And first it was a play.

754
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 2: And then of course they were like, well we can't

755
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 2: have that flop actress beyond screen theater actress. Get her

756
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 2: out of there and actually give her the death penalty,

757
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 2: and then they got Sydney Screen to let this one

758
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 2: on stage.

759
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 1: Someone's roll for this, but our heart goes out to

760
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: our heart goes out for to her, who we're also

761
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: all executed for exactly yes, and but we well, well.

762
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 3: I don't want to spoil anything, but reality winner is

763
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 3: the name of the character, so it's sort of like

764
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 3: double meaning vibes. Well, of course, you know a transcript.

765
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 3: I just love when they're clever like that. Wow.

766
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: So you could say it's actually not crossing the picket

767
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: line because there were no writers.

768
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 2: Wow, well, but there were actors. Sam.

769
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: Sorry, just pretend this was like literally two days ago.

770
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:31,960
Speaker 1: That's a really good point. And this was two days

771
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 1: ago when the actress were on strike. That would have

772
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:34,479
Speaker 1: been a really good one.

773
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:34,560
Speaker 3: Well.

774
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 2: Actually, Sidney Sweeny gives such a naturalistic performance that you

775
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 2: could argue it she's not even acting. And actually, now

776
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 2: that I think about it, it was all improvised. Yeah,

777
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:50,840

00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: which is it?

804
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 2: Well, guess what I have time for about? Because that's

805
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:46,960
Speaker 2: eighty three minutes.

806
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 1: Whoa, No, that was a fun movie, that's what I

807
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 1: hear it.

808
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I'm so into Letterbox right now.

809
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 1: Oh no, your letterbox filled?

810
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 2: And so I'm seeing what people are saying about film.

811
00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 2: Of course, here's what I'll say about Letterbox. I just

812
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,399
Speaker 2: want to say one thing about Letterbox. No one over

813
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 2: there has a sense of humor.

814
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 1: Well, that's sort of what I didn't want to do it.

815
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: It's too serious.

816
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,279
Speaker 2: In fact, I would like to do a dramatic reading

817
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 2: of something I saw today, and I promise this won't

818
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 2: take this town is acting. Well it'st of all, I'm

819
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 2: not in the guild. Well this is a play, Yeah,

820
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 2: this is this is a play. Okay, so I am.

821
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 2: You know, I rewatched the movie rat Race, which was

822
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:33,240
Speaker 2: a movie that I loved when I was in however

823
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 2: old I was when it came out. It came out

824
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 2: of two thousand one, so I was probably around like

825
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 2: six months old, and I remember loving this movie. I

826
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 2: mean when I tell you, I watched it over and

827
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:43,799
Speaker 2: over again. I thought it was so fun. I mean,

828
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 2: I'm a huge with a Goldberg fan, of course, and

829
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 2: so I watched it last summer thinking I'm going to

830
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 2: love this. Turns out I didn't like it, as I

831
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 2: hate when that happens. Happened though, so I decided to

832
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,800
Speaker 2: post a cheeky review of it, and I said, you

833
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 2: know what I'm gonna I'm going.

834
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 3: To be cheeky and are you anonymous on letterbox?

835
00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,880
Speaker 2: No, honey, it's my first and last night. Okay. So

836
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 2: I posted a review and I said the following, I said,

837
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 2: nostalgic for when I loved this movie as a kid.

838
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 2: Now I'm too intelligent and sophisticated, a prison of my

839
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 2: own making? All right, yes, I get it. Would you

840
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 2: like me to read the two comments under this review?

841
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,240
Speaker 1: And so this is anyone can comment?

842
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, first comment, if you call yourself intelligent and sophisticated,

843
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,320
Speaker 2: there's a ninety nine percent chance for a shithead. Second comment,

844
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,239
Speaker 2: there's no way. You just said that one ironically.

845
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: And you're like correct, You're like yeah, confirmed, Well doesn't

846
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:35,760
Speaker 1: that make you worried?

847
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 3: There's no real internet context.

848
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,040
Speaker 2: I was doing satire, I understand.

849
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:42,359
Speaker 1: Yeah.

850
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 2: Have these people not seen the death of Stalin?

851
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,240
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, have they not seen Joja Rabbit?

852
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 3: Any my goodness? But maybe not?

853
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 1: Maybe not?

854
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 2: Strangely and say, have you.

Speaker 1: I also I.

859
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 2: Want to say, you know, since we're on this topic,

860
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 2: I also have a very famous review of Doune where

861
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 2: my review is moms always think their gay son is

862
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:14,360
Speaker 2: the Messiah. Very funny review that want to watch it.

863
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,160
Speaker 2: This is a comment on it. This review confirms it.

864
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 2: Call Me by Your Name is a ship movie that

865
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 2: ruined a generation of tasteless morons.

866
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:25,879
Speaker 3: Whoa, Okay, hold on, just because I'm gay, Because I'm

868
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 3: they ruined a generation of tasteless morons, so that means

869
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 3: we were tasteless morons. But we hadn't been ruined yet.

870
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,640
Speaker 3: But then call Me by your Name came along and

00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:37,319
Speaker 3: ruined us.

00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 1: Maybe we were going to grow and change and.

873
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 2: Morons.

874
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,080
Speaker 3: I just think people online. This is why I'm like,

875
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 3: I really just I mean, I'm the first person to

876
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 3: ever do this. But you know, I'm taking taking a

877
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:51,560
Speaker 3: social media break. Well, I still use Instagram, but I like,

878
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 3: I don't, So this is like how you.

00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 1: Quitting stand though, and yet you have a show tomorrow.

880
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,200
Speaker 3: But I did. I did, like, I don't really, I

881
00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 3: don't use Twitter anymore. I will say that, and that's

882
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 3: been huge for me. And then I have him posted

883
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 3: on TikTok in like a year, and I posted yesterday

884
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,360
Speaker 3: and then I just like immediately made it private. So

885
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 3: I was like, this is too scary. It's too scary,

886
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 3: it's too vulnerable.

887
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, honestly, like, bring back the Facebook model. I want

888
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 1: to be able to post to my friends and have

889
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 1: it be fun and playful in a real way. I

890
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 1: don't want to grow an audience. I don't want to

891
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,759
Speaker 1: like post to an audience. I don't want to hop

892
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,879
Speaker 1: on a trend. No, I just want to post something

893
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: silly for people who are fun.

894
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 3: And people who want to see it and.

895
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 1: People who want to see it. Yeah.

896
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 2: Someone recently explained to me that there is a TikTok

897
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 2: trend called beije flags, and it is when something is

898
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 2: not a red flag but it is a beige flag.

899
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 2: And I was like, are you just talking about a

900
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 2: personality trait? It's like, oh, beige flag, he wears his

901
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 2: pants slightly lower than normal, Like it's flags. It means

902
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,760
Speaker 2: it's a like ever so slightly.

903
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,760
Speaker 3: Negative thing, like it'd not be a light red flag

904
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 3: or like, so thank you for saying that.

905
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,239
Speaker 2: Beije is not light right beige?

906
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,919
Speaker 3: It would be a pink flag, right right, pink flag?

907
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess if I guess, beige is sort

908
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 2: of on that spectrum, sort of flesh colored.

909
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 3: Sure in a way if you have red undertones like Samini.

910
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 2: Which not everyone so it's exclusionary Greek and they don't

911
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 2: have that, and I have more of an olive you do.

912
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 2: So what's my olive flag. I don't see that. You're

913
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:20,840
Speaker 2: not gonna see that on TikTok why because there's enophobic so.

914
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:24,759
Speaker 3: True, actually really really true. I don't know, I'm so

Speaker 3: sound like a boomer. I'm just over the ship.

917
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know.

918
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:33,480
Speaker 1: No, everyone, it's tough because no matter what, we all

919
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 1: sound like boomers all the time.

920
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,880
Speaker 3: Now, and well you know, we are a generation of

921
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,239
Speaker 3: taste of morons. Yes, after calling me by your name,

00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: I mean, let should be something you should just keep

924
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 1: a journal, like it should be for you. I get

925
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,360

926
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: like I saw this, I'm thinking about this, But then

927
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,000

Speaker 2: going to go on strike? Because I've heard enough from them.

934
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 3: They need to take a long, hard look at themselves.

935
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 2: You really do.

936
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:18,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, I'm done with them.

937
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 1: I'm done with them.

938
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 3: Let me enjoy what I enjoy. Also, I just want

939
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,439
Speaker 3: to say, like what movie critics don't and I don't

940
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 3: have the same interests, So they need to stop imposing

941
00:40:26,920 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 3: their views on me because.

942
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:29,439
Speaker 2: It's not going to be the same.

943
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,360
Speaker 3: What you see is not what I see sometimes, So

944
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 3: leave my movies alone. But I won't name them because

945
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 3: we're on strike.

946
00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,160
Speaker 1: Because we're on strike and we have do not acknowledge

947
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 1: that movies exist.

948
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 2: Yes, except if we've done a really good job of that.

949
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 2: This is probably the most movies on the single episode

950
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 2: we've ever mentioned.

951
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 1: Wait, should we get into the top I think.

952
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 2: That would be absolutely fabulous.

953
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: Yeah.

954
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 3: So I had a long, hard think about what to

955
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 3: do for my return to the podcast, and I wanted

956
00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 3: to talk about today the idea, the cultural movie of

957
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 3: having home friends home friends.

958
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 2: Actually, I do want to read your list of your yeah,

959
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 2: because I think it's really smart. It's fun when you

960
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:09,800
Speaker 2: know you get a little peek behind the curtains. So

961
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 2: these are the topics that Mary Beth sent me a

962
00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 2: couple of days ago. Home Friends, which ended up being

963
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 2: the winner. Loyalty deodorant, podcasts and cuddling.

964
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,320
Speaker 3: Yes, deodorant was definitely up there for me, because I

965
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:23,400
Speaker 3: think some people need to.

966
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,800
Speaker 2: Hear that but that deodorant is straight or that deodorant

967
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 2: is necessary both totally. So you're saying it doesn't mean

968
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 2: you're straight, it's straight and everyone should conform to that.

969
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 2: You're sort of like straight. People have made some good points,

970
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 2: and deodorant as.

971
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 1: One of them.

972
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,839
Speaker 3: Yes, and I wouldn't say that about much, But can

973
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 3: I say something recently?

974
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,319
Speaker 2: I have noticed that I have many gay friends who

975
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 2: want to smell as like a sexy thing and then

976
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 2: impose that on other people. And I'm like, I don't

977
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,680
Speaker 2: want to be sex negative, but I am not part

978
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:52,920
Speaker 2: of this.

979
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,839
Speaker 3: No, and don't make me complicit. No, I don't want

980
00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 3: to tell you.

981
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 1: I don't.

982
00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 2: I knew you would.

983
00:41:58,800 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: This is insane.

984
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 2: I feel it is not insane, Sam. When I enter

985
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,040
Speaker 2: a room, I should not I should not have to

986
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,200
Speaker 2: smell someone who smells terrible, because they then have a

987
00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 2: kink that.

988
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 1: They want to the general like to actually be like

989
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,840
Speaker 1: notably smelly is like the highest level of that kink.

990
00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 1: Like most people that are like like into a little musk,

991
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: aren't like stinky, stinky, stanky.

992
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I don't know sensitive nose.

993
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:28,240
Speaker 3: I have sensitive. All my senses are sensitive, and you're.

994
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 2: Sort of like the Daredevil buy something.

995
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 3: I really was, and it's my cross to bear, but

996
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 3: I bear it every day. But if I want in

997
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:39,399
Speaker 3: a room and I can, I mean on the train,

998
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 3: I can actually smell if someone who wasn't wearing you

999
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 3: ort has just been in the space, like recently, that

1000
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 3: happened to me just when I was coming here, and

1001
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:48,719
Speaker 3: that's toff. It's like, it's it's not.

1002
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 2: I actually also have like an unusually sensitive nose to

1003
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,200
Speaker 2: the point where it's like frustrating because I'll often be like,

1004
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 2: spend ten minutes being like what smells weird? What smells

1005
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 2: weird in the house in Matthew will be like, shut up,

1006
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 2: nothing smells weird.

1007
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,480
Speaker 1: It's really hard and I think I'm I'm like kind

1008
00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 1: of annoyed. I feel it's like a Twitter trend of being.

1009
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 2: Like is there.

1010
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, It'll be like like this is the rain on

1011
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,040
Speaker 1: me for this, I'm literally quoting someone. We might have

1012
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,719
Speaker 1: to get rid of this. This is the hit song

1013
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 1: for gays that don't wear deodorant or like, there's like

1014
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,320
Speaker 1: a lot of like and I've even seen like that

1015
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 1: type of tweet where it's like gaze like if you

1016
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 1: if your thing is smelled, don't do it around me,

1017
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 1: and it's sort of like you're Sometimes it feels like

1018
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 1: a straw man villain.

1019
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:37,040
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, I can name people, some of them

1020
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:38,040
Speaker 2: have been on the pod.

1021
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:42,279
Speaker 3: And think about that for five seconds. You're doing a

1022
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 3: podcast in a confined.

1023
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:47,440
Speaker 2: Space, and yeah, sot loyalty is interesting. I mean, we

1024
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,399
Speaker 2: have done cheating as a straight topic before. I saw

1025
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 2: that to you, which is very like, but it is

1026
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 2: very true that sort of the black and white relationship

1027
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:56,960
Speaker 2: dynamics of a straight couple.

1028
00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:01,279
Speaker 3: And friends friendship, yeah, which is inherently gay, So we

1029
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:04,280
Speaker 3: would have to explain that as well. I think friendship

1030
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 3: is inherently gay. Has anyone done that?

1031
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna take a risk right now. One time

1032
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:11,840
Speaker 2: I told a story on this podcast that was pretty explosive,

1033
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 2: and it was that I had gone to a gay

1034
00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,759
Speaker 2: club with four straight presenting people and what ended up

1035
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 2: happening is that the men made out with each other

1036
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 2: and the women made out with each other. Correct do

1037
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 2: you remember this? And then I was, and then I

1038
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,440
Speaker 2: didn't make up with anyone, and I'm the gay one.

1039
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,440
Speaker 2: I would like to come out of saying that was

1040
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:35,719
Speaker 2: you and your boyfriend. I didn't know about this, and

1041
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 2: I protected your identity until that way. It was that night.

1042
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 2: It was that night that we went to three dollars Bill.

1043
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 3: Okay, so exactly, and it was like.

1044
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:47,320
Speaker 2: Edward and his British friend and they're like, yeah, this

1045
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,759
Speaker 2: is what we do in boys school. And then and

1046
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 2: then another person that I won't mention because I have

1047
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:55,799
Speaker 2: not gotten her consent. But then everyone else was being gay,

1048
00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 2: and I was like, I'm sorry, like who am I.

1049
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:01,840
Speaker 1: In the situation? And this was when George was in

1050
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 1: his Costanzo.

1051
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:03,840
Speaker 2: I was being George Constanza.

1052
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 3: Well, look, I'll quote the great Wayne Gretzky, you missed

1053
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 3: one hundred percent of the shots. You don't take. I know,

1054
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 3: maybe you should have been maybe I should your romantic

1055
00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:12,879
Speaker 3: partner that night.

1056
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,800
Speaker 2: That's true, he wasn't there, But I was more thinking like, okay,

1057
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 2: he wasn't there, I can make out with. I mean,

1058
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,120
Speaker 2: it's a gay bar, it's made for me.

1059
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1060
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 2: But again, I'm also being very biphobic right now because

1061
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 2: it is also made.

1062
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:26,759
Speaker 1: For you, I know.

1063
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 3: But look, hey, it was a twist you never saw.

1064
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:30,319
Speaker 2: It was a twist that never saw coming. I mean

1065
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,759
Speaker 2: to be with you know, with people that were I

1066
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 2: mean it was you. You know, it was a straight

1067
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:37,799
Speaker 2: sex couple of course.

1068
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 3: A heterosexual couple, heterosexual couple even. But I think it

1069
00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 3: just proves my point that friendship is gay and it

1070
00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 3: should be considered a touching category exactly.

1071
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 2: And the fact that Edward and his friend their friendship

1072
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:52,800
Speaker 2: was so gay that it ended up resulting in a

1073
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 2: make on.

1074
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,879
Speaker 3: Session exactly as all male friendships shows.

1075
00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. I bet that would leave some pressure

1076
00:45:58,239 --> 00:45:58,799
Speaker 1: for a lot of them.

1077
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:00,719
Speaker 2: By the way, you know how it was a trend

1078
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 2: for so long for women to make out like for

1079
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,800
Speaker 2: a for the male gaze. I think we're overdue for

1080
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 2: the new trend to be the opposite, for men to

1081
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:09,799
Speaker 2: make out and then women to be like hubba.

1082
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 3: And we are, we are, We're doing It's happening. I

1083
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 3: can tell you're right now, it's happening, and it's amazing.

1084
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,120
Speaker 1: Well, but they're not doing it for gay guys pleasure.

1085
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 1: They're doing it sometimes.

1086
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 3: I actually don't know that.

1087
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,320
Speaker 1: Well, I'm a gay guy and I don't see it,

1088
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:24,319
Speaker 1: so you're not getting.

1089
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:26,359
Speaker 3: Oh but but if you see it, you're getting it's

1090
00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 3: causing you pleasure.

1091
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 2: If I were, they're not the intent.

1092
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,400
Speaker 1: They're not doing it for you, No, I think, Oh,

1093
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 1: I mean them, they're not like, they aren't doing it

1094
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:39,000
Speaker 1: in front of me personally.

1095
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 3: Well, you got to get in the right room, spabe, Yeah,

1096
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 3: goes down. I was there last week.

1097
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 2: I mean, is that where the big night happened?

1098
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:52,480
Speaker 3: Yes, and it will be known heads forts the big night.

1099
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 2: Okay, So all right, so let's talk home friends. Tell

1100
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 2: us walk us through what about how you define home friends,

1101
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,720
Speaker 2: why they're straight, what your experience is with home friends.

1102
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:03,800
Speaker 2: Let's hear it.

1103
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,759
Speaker 3: Okay, So home friends is this idea where you have,

1104
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:11,800
Speaker 3: you know, as an adult, Let's say you have groups

1105
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:13,759
Speaker 3: of friends from all walks of life. You have friends

1106
00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 3: from your first job, you have friends from college, you

1107
00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 3: have friends from whatever your hobbies are, like how our

1108
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,320
Speaker 3: hobby is comedy, And then you have this group, this

1109
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 3: elusive group of friends who doesn't really interact with any

1110
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:30,520
Speaker 3: of those other groups. They exist fully as a separate thing,

1111
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:34,239
Speaker 3: and they are your longest standing friends. They probably know

1112
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 3: the most about you. And they're your friends from home ultimately,

1113
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 3: so this could be either friends from your neighborhood. It

1114
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:41,959
Speaker 3: could be people you went to middle school with, people

1115
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,399
Speaker 3: went to elementary school with, high school any of those

1116
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:48,280
Speaker 3: really like formative years where you all went to different

1117
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 3: cities for college. Maybe some of you were in the

1118
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,200
Speaker 3: same city but not the same school. In the rare

1119
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 3: case you were in the same school. I think that's

1120
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:58,080
Speaker 3: amazing because your home friends can also be your college friends.

1121
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,879
Speaker 3: But it's this idea that they are sort of always there,

1122
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 3: and then when you go visit them or you' all

1123
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:06,200
Speaker 3: in a group, you fall right back into those patterns

1124
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:07,840
Speaker 3: that you had when you made the friends.

1125
00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, totally.

1126
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:14,720
Speaker 1: So this is a genius topic. It is obviously so straight.

1127
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 1: I feel I can't like, Yes, I have like some

1128
00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 1: people from my past that I am still in communication with,

1129
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 1: but it is so few and and because the whole

1130
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:29,400
Speaker 1: time we knew each other, I was closeted exactly. They

1131
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:32,480
Speaker 1: do not know me. The best people who.

1132
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 3: Came out, I don't how old were you when you

1133
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 3: came out.

1134
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 1: I came out in college the same essentially.

1135
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think one of my home friends is a

1136
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:41,719
Speaker 3: gay man and he came out in high school, so

1137
00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:45,080
Speaker 3: that was great because you know, we got to know

1138
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,279
Speaker 3: him as I mean, it wasn't like his personality changed

1139
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:49,759
Speaker 3: at all. It was just like, oh cool, now this

1140
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 3: thing is like out and it's fabulous.

1141
00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:58,319
Speaker 2: This thing is this faul he said, I'm gay. He said,

1142
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 2: thatsaid the.

1143
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 3: Thing about in the yearbook room. I said, that's fabulous,

1144
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:05,719
Speaker 3: that's fabulous. Well, I can say one word, and I

1145
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:07,839
Speaker 3: hate to label things, as you know, but I'm a label.

1146
00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 2: You also have a lesbian high school friend.

1147
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 3: That I know personally, of course, yeah, so and that

1148
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,279
Speaker 3: was that was later, but I would agree. I would

1149
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,840
Speaker 3: also say that her personality has not changed, so in

1150
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 3: a way, that's a gift. But I feel like it's

1151
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 3: this fun idea. And a lot of my friends that

1152
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,840
Speaker 3: I've made in adulthood are like, who are these people?

1153
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:28,680
Speaker 3: Who are these people that wear Reformation dresses and you're

1154
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,719
Speaker 3: going to their weddings all the time, and their names

1155
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,359
Speaker 3: are things like Rachel and Emily, and I'm like, they're

1156
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 3: my home friends. There's nothing else to say.

1157
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,640
Speaker 1: Really, Yeah, I'm honestly like a little jealous of the

1158
00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 1: idea of home.

1159
00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 2: I am too. I am too because I think that

1160
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 2: it is a tether to your past that is not

1161
00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:51,279
Speaker 2: your blood family. And to be honest, I don't really

1162
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,600
Speaker 2: have that, Like I am not I really am not

1163
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,760
Speaker 2: in touch with my high school friends.

1164
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:00,759
Speaker 1: I have like literally one and like some that I

1165
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:05,040
Speaker 1: have seen randomly, but no one that's like like there

1166
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,360
Speaker 1: is just like we will never spend enough time together

1167
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,520
Speaker 1: now to catch up with Yeah, and it's like it

1168
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:15,800
Speaker 1: sounds like there's a lot to like. When I was closetive,

1169
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,840
Speaker 1: I was very clositive totally. There was a saw that

1170
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:20,360
Speaker 1: I was like not addressing.

1171
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,080
Speaker 2: I was closeted in more ways than one because on

1172
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:26,960
Speaker 2: the one hand, I was obviously not out as gay,

1173
00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 2: but on the other hand, I was also not out

1174
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:32,800
Speaker 2: as having anything to say to be to sort of

1175
00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 2: do a makeshift straight shooter, like there was a way

1176
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 2: in which I was deeply uninteresting because I was afraid

1177
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:42,120
Speaker 2: of actually expressing anything going on inside in case it

1178
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:43,640
Speaker 2: would like show my trip persu.

1179
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:46,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was fear based. Yes, I was unsexual. I

1180
00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:48,920
Speaker 1: had no taste in anything because it was like, well,

1181
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 1: I'm not going to show anything.

1182
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 2: Yeah. It was sort of like, well, there's a way

1183
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:54,879
Speaker 2: in which you're waiting for your life to begin because

1184
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,440
Speaker 2: you're like, Okay, when it's safe, not to say that

1185
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:59,399
Speaker 2: I grew up in some violent environment, but like when

1186
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 2: I personally feel safe, whatever that means for me, then

1187
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 2: I will develop a personality same.

1188
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:09,040
Speaker 1: I also think this is an interesting, potentially generational thing

1189
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:12,560
Speaker 1: because like now people do come out in high school

1190
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 1: and it's like.

1191
00:51:14,400 --> 00:51:15,600
Speaker 2: Now the straight people are bullied.

1192
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:16,719
Speaker 1: I read that.

1193
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:21,440
Speaker 3: Amen, Amen to that, Yeah, sister, sister. But I think

1194
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 3: also with the you know, one of the reasons that

1195
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 3: my home friends and I and there's I can't remember

1196
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:27,120
Speaker 3: if there's nine or ten of us, but we still

1197
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:28,840
Speaker 3: have a group chat. But when we went to college,

1198
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:31,200
Speaker 3: we started a private Facebook group where we would post

1199
00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:32,880
Speaker 3: on it about what we were up to and are

1200
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:36,360
Speaker 3: goings on, and sometimes we would video chat on our MacBooks. Wow,

1201
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 3: and that was very fun to keep in touch. But

1202
00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 3: I feel like now we have had a group chat

1203
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,080
Speaker 3: that's been going on since, you know, maybe like ten

1204
00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:45,440
Speaker 3: years or however long ago. I don't know, it's been

1205
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:50,879
Speaker 3: a long time. One year, yeah, and so it's it's

1206
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:52,440
Speaker 3: so nice and it's just like, I don't know, it

1207
00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,080
Speaker 3: just feels there's like a comfort there and then when

1208
00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 3: we're all at a wedding together, like we had a

1209
00:51:57,040 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 3: wedding in San Francisco this past I don't know, I

1210
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 3: don't know what month it is, but I think it

1211
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:03,960
Speaker 3: was in April, and it was just so nice to

1212
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:05,800
Speaker 3: be back together, and it's like, you know, the gang's

1213
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:08,360
Speaker 3: all here. And then when one person isn't there, obviously

1214
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 3: you talk about that person. If one person misses a

1215
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:13,560
Speaker 3: gathering in the home friends group, that person is being

1216
00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:14,920
Speaker 3: spoken about at length.

1217
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:18,480
Speaker 1: In a negative positive nuance.

1218
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:19,239
Speaker 2: You have to be there.

1219
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:22,319
Speaker 3: I can't say I really could say if you're not, Yeah,

1220
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:24,920
Speaker 3: it's sort of like, yeah, you.

1221
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:26,879
Speaker 1: Sort of have to be there, but definitely you would

1222
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:28,440
Speaker 1: come out of the closet a little earlier. Maybe you

1223
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:29,360
Speaker 1: could talk about this.

1224
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 2: Wow, Well, it's interesting that you're a queering the notion

1225
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,919
Speaker 2: of home friends, which is a straight topic, by having

1226
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:35,760
Speaker 2: gay ones.

1227
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:39,399
Speaker 3: Exactly, and by coming out as bisexual at twenty eight

1228
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 3: because I was in high school making out with my

1229
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:46,040
Speaker 3: friends for attention, sure, which that was part of it, yeah,

1230
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:48,920
Speaker 3: of course, and then in college sort of like oh, well,

1231
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,600
Speaker 3: you know, I don't know, we'll see and then as

1232
00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:53,120
Speaker 3: a you know, in my twenties. I was like, I

1233
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:54,719
Speaker 3: don't know. I think I'm just straight, but I like

1234
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 3: I like cooking up with girls. It's like fun thing.

1235
00:52:57,560 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 3: And then eventually I was like, oh no, I'm in

1236
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,319
Speaker 3: love with a woman. So these things happened, and your.

1237
00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:05,320
Speaker 2: Home friends accepted you for that. They against all odds,

1238
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:06,080
Speaker 2: against all.

1239
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:08,600
Speaker 3: Odds, and it was quite the change. I had to

1240
00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:11,520
Speaker 3: send out a newsletter to everyone paid post.

1241
00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:12,359
Speaker 2: On the private Facebook group.

1242
00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 1: Is the faceok group still active?

1243
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,560
Speaker 3: Here's what's so tragic, and why if I ever meet

1244
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:20,840
Speaker 3: Mark Zuckerberg, I'll do physical violence. Because the Facebook groups

1245
00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:23,719
Speaker 3: used to have discussion boards where you could like make

1246
00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:27,400
Speaker 3: a new discussion topic and then everyone could comment and respond,

1247
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:29,600
Speaker 3: and then one day they were just gone. So this

1248
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,279
Speaker 3: was just like our oral history of college just was

1249
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:34,240
Speaker 3: completely take that ripped.

1250
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:37,480
Speaker 2: From us, the way big tech platforms own everything we've

1251
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:39,799
Speaker 2: ever said, done, or written, but then they can take

1252
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 2: it away exactly.

1253
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,319
Speaker 3: It heartbreaking. We had so much funny shit on there,

1254
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:45,360
Speaker 3: like people writing drunk and it was all misspelled. It

1255
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:48,040
Speaker 3: was really funny, trust me, And now we'll just never

1256
00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,120
Speaker 3: have that. So we just have we have the memories

1257
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:51,480
Speaker 3: and the group is no longer.

1258
00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:52,080
Speaker 1: You know.

1259
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 2: I created a funny tumbler when I was in college,

1260
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:56,600
Speaker 2: and it was one of those tumblers that would have

1261
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:58,640
Speaker 2: like when you go to the dining hall and then

1262
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:02,560
Speaker 2: a gift when you art doing whatever, and then a gift,

1263
00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:04,520
Speaker 2: and it was this was peak of when this was

1264
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,399
Speaker 2: like this was comedy. Yeah, and it went a little viral.

1265
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:08,800
Speaker 3: Wait, it wasn't what should we call me?

1266
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,040
Speaker 2: It was like it was right after what she call

1267
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,680
Speaker 2: Remember when everyone had like what should we call swim team?

1268
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 2: What should we call whatever? So I had one that

1269
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:21,400
Speaker 2: was for like the co op scene at my university.

1270
00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:23,600
Speaker 2: So it was all like when you miss your kitchen

1271
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:28,360
Speaker 2: clean when you like overcook the shrimp, like when you

1272
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:32,280
Speaker 2: go to the Wednesday party but they're out of wine.

1273
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:35,320
Speaker 2: Like it was all that, and it was like passed

1274
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:36,680
Speaker 2: around in a way that I was like it was

1275
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 2: the first taste of like attention that I got for

1276
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:43,279
Speaker 2: doing something sort of funny. And I was like, oh, yeah,

1277
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:48,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have a podcast one day. And but my

1278
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,040
Speaker 2: point is it's gone. I don't know, I certainly actually,

1279
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:51,640
Speaker 2: but it's still there.

1280
00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:55,279
Speaker 1: And I think I was I wish my tumblers were gone.

1281
00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 1: I think.

1282
00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,600
Speaker 2: I think I tried once to go to the.

1283
00:54:57,920 --> 00:54:59,799
Speaker 3: U r L and I couldn't find well, I'm sure

1284
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:03,920
Speaker 3: of your blog, like the links would be, the gifts

1285
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:06,960
Speaker 3: don't work tumbhe I do miss those days. I was

1286
00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:09,359
Speaker 3: a tumbler girl in college as well, and I miss

1287
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:12,120
Speaker 3: those times. But along those same lines, my high school

1288
00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:14,040
Speaker 3: friends and I'm my home friends, you could say, we

1289
00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:17,080
Speaker 3: did a parody of the OC called the FC because

1290
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 3: we're from Fairfield County. I we did two episodes of

1291
00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 3: it and we filmed it in my house and it

1292
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,279
Speaker 3: was so funny and fun. And then I remember we

1293
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:27,400
Speaker 3: posted on some OC message boards and people in Canada

1294
00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:29,400
Speaker 3: just loved it. And that was when I was like,

1295
00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 3: oh wait, this is kind of cool. Like I wish

1296
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:33,880
Speaker 3: we had stuck with it in a way. But then

1297
00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 3: I'm like, then I would be a YouTuber right now

1298
00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:38,000
Speaker 3: and that would be its own sort of hell. But

1299
00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,479
Speaker 3: I feel like I wish that I took a little

1300
00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:42,680
Speaker 3: bit more advantage of that, like birth of the Internet

1301
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:43,279
Speaker 3: sort of time.

1302
00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:44,120
Speaker 1: Oh I think about that.

1303
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, Although it is true that when you look at

1304
00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:50,080
Speaker 2: the og YouTubers now and what they're up to, it

1305
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,359
Speaker 2: is even darker than it's sad, it's good.

1306
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:53,400
Speaker 1: It's actually very scary.

1307
00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:55,959
Speaker 2: It's really it's really scary, and it's not their fault.

1308
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:58,360
Speaker 2: You're not meant to live that lifestyle.

1309
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 1: My tumblr, my joke tumbler that was a spark was

1310
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,120
Speaker 1: that I had a friend who I was in classes

1311
00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:07,520
Speaker 1: with him every like we were this one semester in

1312
00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:10,919
Speaker 1: every single class together, and he often wore the same

1313
00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:13,360
Speaker 1: outfit multiple days in a row. So I started a

1314
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 1: fashion blog called what Gary Woarre Today? And I would

1315
00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:18,239
Speaker 1: take a picre we were very close friends, and I

1316
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:20,440
Speaker 1: would like pick it wasn't bullying. I would take a

1317
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:22,960
Speaker 1: picture of him and like make like write like fashion

1318
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:26,640
Speaker 1: blog language to be like today he's pairing a gray

1319
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,520
Speaker 1: pant with a ga so funny.

1320
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 2: And have I told you about the Georgia Wards.

1321
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 1: I don't think you have.

1322
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,040
Speaker 2: Okay, you're gonna die wait, I'm scared to say this

1323
00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:39,960
Speaker 2: when I this is before we moved back to grade.

1324
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:41,400
Speaker 2: So it was in New Jersey. I must have been

1325
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:45,880
Speaker 2: in seventh grade. I decided, In fact, I might have

1326
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,440
Speaker 2: been in like sixth grade. I decided out of nowhere

1327
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:52,600
Speaker 2: that I was gonna create the Georgia Wards. And there

1328
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 2: were gonna be like twenty seven categories that were like

1329
00:56:56,239 --> 00:57:02,320
Speaker 2: that were like cutest guy, like list couple, like most authletic,

1330
00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:04,480
Speaker 2: just like literally things that I made up. One of

1331
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:07,959
Speaker 2: them was like best shorty and it was like people

1332
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:09,600
Speaker 2: that were short like physically.

1333
00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:10,879
Speaker 3: It was a different time.

1334
00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:11,759
Speaker 2: It was a different time.

1335
00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:14,400
Speaker 1: Well, everyone was growing, and I just decided.

1336
00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:15,920
Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, well I'm gonna print all these

1337
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:17,920
Speaker 2: ballots and everyone's gonna vote for the Georgia Wars. You

1338
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:26,560
Speaker 2: decided no, I as well, it's democracy. This is actually

1339
00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:28,960
Speaker 2: a good point. I don't remember. I do think there

1340
00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 2: was a voting element because I remember we had a

1341
00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 2: printer that I was like printing so many pages because

1342
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 2: it was like for the whole grade. Yeah, and my

1343
00:57:36,920 --> 00:57:39,400
Speaker 2: mom was like, why are you printing so many pages?

1344
00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 2: And I had to lie because I knew she would

1345
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 2: not approve what I was doing. Anyway, the point is

1346
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,040
Speaker 2: I literally just did that. And then one of the

1347
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,600
Speaker 2: categories was fully cutest Guy, and in my mind I

1348
00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:53,400
Speaker 2: was like, well, it's not gay, Like I'm the producer here,

1349
00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:55,000
Speaker 2: like there has to be the cutest guy in the

1350
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:55,560
Speaker 2: hottest girl.

1351
00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:57,920
Speaker 1: I mean middle Well, it's also like kind of funny

1352
00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:00,080
Speaker 1: for you to be like, yes, the Georgia Wars like

1353
00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:00,960
Speaker 1: but then but.

1354
00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 2: Then it's like I'm choosing which five guys are the

1355
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 2: hottest guys?

1356
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:06,919
Speaker 3: And then I vote.

1357
00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:10,200
Speaker 2: Also, I put myself in it. I've just remembered did

1358
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:10,480
Speaker 2: you win?

1359
00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:14,600
Speaker 1: No, George didn't win the Georgia Award for cute sky Wait.

1360
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 2: It's actually crazy because I have thought about this until now.

1361
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 2: But like the rest of them were the most popular guys,

1362
00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,439
Speaker 2: and then I was like, well, I'll put my I'll move.

1363
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:26,040
Speaker 2: So it was just like all these guys that played

1364
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:27,959
Speaker 2: lacrosse and then me, and then.

1365
00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:28,800
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, vote.

1366
00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:31,360
Speaker 3: If people were smart, they would have voted for you stuck.

1367
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:33,400
Speaker 1: Up to the It's crazy. Who would have known you

1368
00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:35,120
Speaker 1: would have grown up to be a really judgy gey guy?

1369
00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:37,200
Speaker 1: I know, I mean it really is.

1370
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:40,760
Speaker 2: Sometimes you do see deep into a child's psyche.

1371
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:44,520
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, I mean those it's just funny that,

1372
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:46,800
Speaker 3: like did the school catch wind of it? Did you guts?

1373
00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 2: That's why I'm like struggling with the story. I can't

1374
00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:53,920
Speaker 2: remember how it ended. I don't think I got in trouble,

1375
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:55,680
Speaker 2: but I do think the vibe was very much like

1376
00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 2: so that happened anyway.

1377
00:58:59,400 --> 00:59:01,920
Speaker 1: Like everyone there's like a big announcement like just for

1378
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:04,200
Speaker 1: the future, no personal award.

1379
00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:06,920
Speaker 2: It was very it was very much like yikes, all right,

1380
00:59:07,040 --> 00:59:09,440
Speaker 2: well that's sort of do your parents.

1381
00:59:09,960 --> 00:59:12,600
Speaker 3: I also been aware of an incident in the seventh

1382
00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:16,400
Speaker 3: grade in which one student has decided you had.

1383
00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:18,360
Speaker 1: An award other students.

1384
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:22,040
Speaker 3: It was not like a normal non attractiveness things.

1385
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,040
Speaker 2: It was not mean spirited like most of them were

1386
00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:29,680
Speaker 2: like sort of especially to apologize to the shorties, the

1387
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:32,160
Speaker 2: worst shorties, and actually, you know what, I think it's something.

1388
00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:33,680
Speaker 2: My mom did catch one of it and was mad

1389
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:35,680
Speaker 2: at me. On one thing, I had nominated this guy

1390
00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:37,720
Speaker 2: Eduardo for best Shorty, and my mom was like, his

1391
00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:39,520
Speaker 2: mom told me, he's insecure about it's height, and you

1392
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:40,840
Speaker 2: put him in best shorty.

1393
00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:43,680
Speaker 3: If you're going to be shorty the best I know?

1394
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:48,480
Speaker 2: And he actually short. It was really cute. I wonder

1395
00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:49,200
Speaker 2: what he's doing now.

1396
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:52,200
Speaker 3: I wonder if he's still short, can we get eyes

1397
00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 3: on him?

1398
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:56,240
Speaker 2: Where are the private Facebook groups?

1399
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:00,200
Speaker 3: Wow? Oh my god, the George Awards. I I hope

1400
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:00,600
Speaker 3: you bring those.

1401
01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:03,160
Speaker 2: I should bring them back. That's actually a good idea

1402
01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:04,080
Speaker 2: for a segment out of life.

1403
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,800
Speaker 1: That's a great idea. The Georgia Awards, Wow, what.

1404
01:00:06,840 --> 01:00:08,200
Speaker 3: The categories are only you know.

1405
01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:10,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, the categories are all me. It's like the hottest,

1406
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:17,360
Speaker 2: like most most fit, most smartest, Yeah, smartest hot at tallest.

1407
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:23,520
Speaker 1: Wow. Wow. When it comes to home friends, was there

1408
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:26,880
Speaker 1: anyone that like, like didn't make the cut but was

1409
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:27,480
Speaker 1: kind of close.

1410
01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:32,080
Speaker 3: We had a few people that would be invited to

1411
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,640
Speaker 3: our gatherings like on the weekends in high school, but

1412
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:38,280
Speaker 3: didn't necessarily they weren't necessarily in the Facebook group. And

1413
01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 3: then we have had one friend leave the group chat

1414
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,160
Speaker 3: and that was on his own volition and we're all

1415
01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:46,160
Speaker 3: still we have our individual relationships with him. Also gay,

1416
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:49,520
Speaker 3: We actually had two gay friends come out senior year,

1417
01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:52,000
Speaker 3: and I feel like that, like I've talked about this before,

1418
01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:53,920
Speaker 3: but it sort of skewed my perception when I went

1419
01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:56,640
Speaker 3: to college and then now subsequently moved to New York

1420
01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:58,400
Speaker 3: because I'm like, oh, well, everyone comes out in their

1421
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:00,400
Speaker 3: eighteen That's like everyone comes out in their teen, so

1422
01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:02,960
Speaker 3: everybody's been you know, out for and but that's just

1423
01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:07,080
Speaker 3: so not the case your company. I wait, what happened?

1424
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:11,480
Speaker 3: But it's been so interesting to like recalibrate that because

1425
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:13,800
Speaker 3: I guess yeah, people don't do that.

1426
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:16,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, do you have any friends in your of your

1427
01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:20,320
Speaker 2: home friends circle that like, at some point their lives

1428
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 2: just became too different. It's like someone who had a kid,

1429
01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:26,640
Speaker 2: like in their mid twenties, or someone who got married

1430
01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:29,200
Speaker 2: really early, or even someone who just like had a

1431
01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 2: career that is so unlike everyone else's and suddenly like

1432
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:33,120
Speaker 2: works for the military or something.

1433
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:35,479
Speaker 3: Well, something that's really important to know about home friends

1434
01:01:35,560 --> 01:01:37,160
Speaker 3: is that you should not know what they do for work.

1435
01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:39,680
Speaker 3: You should be lifelong friends with them. But if anybody

1436
01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:41,040
Speaker 3: put a gun to your head and said, what does

1437
01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 3: Rachel do for work? You could maybe name the company,

1438
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:44,840
Speaker 3: and that's about.

1439
01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:45,959
Speaker 1: You say she's George's.

1440
01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:50,440
Speaker 3: Health Insurance, and that's it. That's all I know. I

1441
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:53,680
Speaker 3: don't know anything else. But what's nice about my group

1442
01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:57,120
Speaker 3: of home friends is that everybody has jobs. I don't

1443
01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:58,840
Speaker 3: know what they are. Necessarily one is a teacher.

1444
01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:02,120
Speaker 2: Oh oh, when someone is a teacher, so you can

1445
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:03,400
Speaker 2: know what that means exactly.

1446
01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:05,920
Speaker 3: And that's like, it's so nice, it's so digestible.

1447
01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:08,840
Speaker 1: Yes, well, almost feels like you're doing charity. You're like, well,

1448
01:02:08,880 --> 01:02:09,560
Speaker 1: my friend's a teacher.

1449
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:11,560
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, you could say I give back because my

1450
01:02:11,640 --> 01:02:13,919
Speaker 3: friend is a teacher and this is someone I've known

1451
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:17,560
Speaker 3: for you know, longer than I have. Yeah, pasoo group together,

1452
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:22,000
Speaker 3: So I would say luckily, no one has really like

1453
01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:25,640
Speaker 3: taken a sharp left turn everybody. Well, no, I shouldn't

1454
01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:28,520
Speaker 3: say everybody. Some of them are married. Our one friend

1455
01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:30,400
Speaker 3: just had a baby, and then we have you know,

1456
01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:32,560
Speaker 3: I'm in a long term relationship. We have another one

1457
01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 3: that's similar, and then two that are single. So I

1458
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 3: will say bringing bringing partners into the group. It were

1459
01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:40,360
Speaker 3: a very welcoming group.

1460
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:43,080
Speaker 2: Okay, interesting, and I doubt it was going to be

1461
01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:44,440
Speaker 2: my next I definitely doubt it.

1462
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:46,120
Speaker 3: Well, you can ask my home friends.

1463
01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:49,600
Speaker 1: I'll send you their I would rather ask your long

1464
01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:50,400
Speaker 1: term partner.

1465
01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:52,360
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe you know what, but he's made a great

1466
01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:54,680
Speaker 3: impression on the group. He hasn't met everyone though, because

1467
01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:57,840
Speaker 3: he lives in England. Of course he hasn't been to

1468
01:02:57,920 --> 01:03:00,840
Speaker 3: the weddings and stuff yet. But we're, you know, we're hopeful.

1469
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:03,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I do think introducing people to a British

1470
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:06,080
Speaker 2: actor is unfit. It's like, okay, everyone else is like

1471
01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:06,880
Speaker 2: this is Jared.

1472
01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:11,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, sorry, guys love you. But yeah, when he

1473
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:13,360
Speaker 3: can't come to a wedding because he's filming, I'm like,

1474
01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 3: well he's filming. They're like made him up.

1475
01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:21,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's British and he's an actor.

1476
01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:23,480
Speaker 2: They're like, well, Jared just booked the big account. Like,

1477
01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:24,240
Speaker 2: shut up, Rachel.

1478
01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:26,360
Speaker 3: I'm also like, what does that mean? And also what

1479
01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:29,200
Speaker 3: is his job? Wait, don't tell me knowing a partner's

1480
01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:31,160
Speaker 3: job is beyond Part.

1481
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,880
Speaker 2: Of growing up is realizing that it's actually not interesting

1482
01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:35,800
Speaker 2: to ask someone what they do or house work.

1483
01:03:36,440 --> 01:03:38,680
Speaker 1: We've had this debate before. I do want it, like,

1484
01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 1: I want it like on a card, just so just

1485
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,160
Speaker 1: so I'm not like and by the way, chemical engineers

1486
01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:45,800
Speaker 1: suck and they're like, well I'm a chemical, wouldn't mine

1487
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:46,240
Speaker 1: And you.

1488
01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:47,360
Speaker 3: Do say that all the time.

1489
01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:49,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, a little bit weird. I wouldn't mind

1490
01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:51,240
Speaker 2: people having a business card that just has like three

1491
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:54,080
Speaker 2: sentences about them that's like, these are the basics, let's

1492
01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:55,680
Speaker 2: not we don't have to address them.

1493
01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:56,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't talk about this.

1494
01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:58,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that would be huge.

1495
01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:03,160
Speaker 1: I have some home so mine's also confusing. Like I

1496
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:06,280
Speaker 1: moved in the middle of high school and then when

1497
01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:08,560
Speaker 1: I was in college. Early on, my parents moved away,

1498
01:04:08,680 --> 01:04:10,960
Speaker 1: like I went to I was in high school in Virginia,

1499
01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:15,120
Speaker 1: then went TVA, and then my parents moved to Chicago. Yeah,

1500
01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:18,880
Speaker 1: and so I like never went home and I was

1501
01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:20,320
Speaker 1: only there for like two years, so I was already

1502
01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:21,240
Speaker 1: like a transplant.

1503
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:21,680
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1504
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,040
Speaker 1: And then it was like, but there's there's some like

1505
01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:26,720
Speaker 1: that moved to New York and I did hang out

1506
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:28,800
Speaker 1: with them like one or two times, and it was

1507
01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:31,040
Speaker 1: kind of fun, and I was like, you know, if

1508
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:34,080
Speaker 1: we could, we could get this going again. But we

1509
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:36,160
Speaker 1: were in very different spaces, and I was still very

1510
01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:39,000
Speaker 1: self conscious about being gay now and sort of being like,

1511
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:42,120
Speaker 1: how do I square this where it's like you knew

1512
01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 1: me as straight and just sort of goofy totally and

1513
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:47,600
Speaker 1: now I'm gay and goofy.

1514
01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:50,320
Speaker 3: And how wild people take makes sense about And.

1515
01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:51,640
Speaker 1: They were like it was that thing where they were

1516
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 1: totally being like one of them has a gay brother

1517
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:56,600
Speaker 1: and they were being so normal and so nice, and

1518
01:04:56,720 --> 01:04:58,480
Speaker 1: I was sort of like, they probably think it's weird

1519
01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:00,480
Speaker 1: that I'm gay now, and I could not get over it.

1520
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:02,120
Speaker 3: That makes me.

1521
01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:06,960
Speaker 2: Switched over from thinking the gay thing matters to just

1522
01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,080
Speaker 2: being like I don't want anyone to know I'm a comedian.

1523
01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:15,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is pretty pretty embarrassing, it is shocking, and

1524
01:05:15,680 --> 01:05:16,360
Speaker 3: yet here we are.

1525
01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:17,200
Speaker 2: Let me do it.

1526
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:19,920
Speaker 3: We do it every day, every day, wake up and

1527
01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:20,400
Speaker 3: be funny.

1528
01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:24,680
Speaker 2: It's so hard on Instagram, rails on TikTok on Twitter.

1529
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:29,920
Speaker 2: If some of us would say, leto letter box, letterbox, Yeah, it's.

1530
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:34,520
Speaker 3: Hard when home friends' parents move, so you really you

1531
01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:36,720
Speaker 3: don't go home for Christmas and see them or at

1532
01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:38,480
Speaker 3: the holidays. So I should say you don't see them

1533
01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:42,400
Speaker 3: because their parents like, yeah, you're welcome, and so then

1534
01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:44,360
Speaker 3: it's really like you have to make even more of

1535
01:05:44,360 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 3: an effort. But it's kind of nice to see if

1536
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:48,160
Speaker 3: you if you make the effort, and we have. But

1537
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:51,400
Speaker 3: I feel like, you know, if anyone listening is wanting

1538
01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:55,000
Speaker 3: to reignite a home friendship, especially if you're gay, because

1539
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:56,960
Speaker 3: we need more gay people in the home friends space,

1540
01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 3: I would say, I think you should do it.

1541
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:00,200
Speaker 2: And actually I would like to say that's that's a

1542
01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:03,560
Speaker 2: good way to screen people. It's like, if there if

1543
01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:05,600
Speaker 2: there are randomly any people I went to high school

1544
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:07,960
Speaker 2: with that listen to this podcast that we're not in touch,

1545
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:09,360
Speaker 2: please get in touch.

1546
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:11,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I would love to know who you are.

1547
01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:14,600
Speaker 2: Who in my Greek high school is listening to this

01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:36,240
Speaker 2: met your home friends, I love them. They're just they're

1584
01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:39,200
Speaker 2: like salt the earth, I would say. Some of them,

1585
01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 2: I'm like actively actively like respond to their Twitter or

1586
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:46,160
Speaker 2: their Instagram stories actively like try to sort of like

1587
01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:47,000
Speaker 2: develop a rapport.

1588
01:07:47,160 --> 01:07:49,160
Speaker 3: Well, I'm lucky because they're all great and they have

1589
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:53,040
Speaker 3: no interest in becoming anything even adjacent to the industry.

1590
01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:55,400
Speaker 3: So it's just also nice to talk to them about

1591
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:58,480
Speaker 3: like other things because they asked me questions, but it's

1592
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,880
Speaker 3: not like all about that, and they don't know half

1593
01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:02,040
Speaker 3: the people that, you know.

1594
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:04,720
Speaker 2: It's a very good reminder that the people we think

1595
01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:07,480
Speaker 2: of as like titans of the industry are actually randos.

1596
01:08:07,640 --> 01:08:09,320
Speaker 3: They are and they always will be.

1597
01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:11,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, which is really empowering.

1598
01:08:11,240 --> 01:08:13,160
Speaker 3: Actually, And that's the last thing I'll say on that.

1599
01:08:13,840 --> 01:08:14,240
Speaker 2: Totally.

1600
01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:15,640
Speaker 3: Wow.

1601
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,680
Speaker 1: Well, our final segment is called shout Outs, and in

1602
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:21,080
Speaker 1: the second we pay homage to the Grand Street tradition

1603
01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:22,960
Speaker 1: of the radio shout out and just shout out to

1604
01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:26,720
Speaker 1: anything that we are enjoying. You know, it's always tough

1605
01:08:26,720 --> 01:08:28,360
Speaker 1: when we record two episodes in a row, but go

1606
01:08:28,520 --> 01:08:29,520
Speaker 1: for it, George.

1607
01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:32,720
Speaker 2: What's up everyone out there, and shout out to my

1608
01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:34,840
Speaker 2: home cooks especially. I want to give a shout out

1609
01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:37,840
Speaker 2: to taking a can of seltzer and rather than just

1610
01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:40,840
Speaker 2: popping it open and putting it in your disgusting mouth,

1611
01:08:41,240 --> 01:08:45,200
Speaker 2: taking a glass of ice, cutting a lime or lemon

1612
01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:48,439
Speaker 2: into a fourth, squeezing the lemon in and then pouring

1613
01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:51,600
Speaker 2: the seltzer into that. Suddenly you are literally in the

1614
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:53,840
Speaker 2: audience of the US Open. Suddenly you are in a

1615
01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:59,080
Speaker 2: country club, and suddenly you have upwards of fifteen servants

1616
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:01,280
Speaker 2: around you that areing to your every need because you

1617
01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:04,280
Speaker 2: are being glamorous and you are being classy in an

1618
01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:07,640
Speaker 2: almost problematic way, I would say. And so you have

1619
01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:10,559
Speaker 2: the power within yourself to create that kind of environment

1620
01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:13,040
Speaker 2: at home without even having to leave the house, for

1621
01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,080
Speaker 2: the price of essentially a fourth of a line, which

1622
01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:17,880
Speaker 2: does not cost that much last time I checked. There

1623
01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:21,200
Speaker 2: are deals on Fresh direct to day, so get out there,

1624
01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:24,200
Speaker 2: buy yourself some limes and lemons and make yourself a

1625
01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:26,479
Speaker 2: selter like you're the queen that you are.

1626
01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:32,880
Speaker 1: What Okay, I have one that's you know, it's on

1627
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,000
Speaker 1: the nose for me, but hey, we're reaching.

1628
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:41,880
Speaker 2: What's up everyone who has a happy Friday feeling?

1629
01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,479
Speaker 1: I want to give a huge shout out to summer heat.

1630
01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:49,760
Speaker 1: I have not felt that summer feeling, and I have

1631
01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:52,320
Speaker 1: been looking for it the way one looks for I

1632
01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:55,759
Speaker 1: don't know the chrystals spirit even I have been wanting,

1633
01:09:55,920 --> 01:10:00,559
Speaker 1: and I've been going to beaches, pools, the woods, stream rivers,

1634
01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:02,920
Speaker 1: if it's a body of water, I've been there and

1635
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:06,799
Speaker 1: I've been like, why do I still feel this aching want?

1636
01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:10,880
Speaker 1: And it's because it hasn't been hot enough. Now it

1637
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:13,960
Speaker 1: is very hot, and I am feeling fulfilled. And even

1638
01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,600
Speaker 1: though I'm in New York City, surrounded by pavement and

1639
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:24,280
Speaker 1: working in a podcast studio, I feel so summary. I

1640
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:26,679
Speaker 1: feel like I'm on vacation. And I realized that vacation

1641
01:10:26,960 --> 01:10:30,880
Speaker 1: isn't going somewhere with a beautiful beach. It's being too hot,

1642
01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:33,240
Speaker 1: and I feel full.

1643
01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:37,559
Speaker 2: Thank you Son, thank you Earth, thank you summer.

1644

Speaker 3: to do one? Yeah, I'm scared.

1647
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:47,240
Speaker 2: You literally have to just think of it on the spot.

1648
01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:49,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1649
01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:52,200
Speaker 2: No, we'll cut anything that betrays any weakness on your party.

Speaker 3: Thank you so much. Wait, I don't know what you do.

1651
01:10:56,920 --> 01:10:57,760

01:10:58,160 --> 01:10:59,600
Speaker 2: No, it's so stressful.

1653
01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:03,599

Speaker 3: Hey listeners, Happy Friday. Today. I'd like to give a

1682
01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:27,360
Speaker 3: shout out to ballet flats. That's right, ballet flats are back.

1683
01:12:27,560 --> 01:12:29,040
Speaker 3: You may have seen it in the New York Times

1684
01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:32,240
Speaker 3: Style section. You may have seen it on Jennifer Lawrence's feet,

1685
01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:34,880
Speaker 3: you may have heard about it on this very podcast.

1686
01:12:35,360 --> 01:12:38,120
Speaker 3: Ballet flats are back, and they're better than ever. You

1687
01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:40,240
Speaker 3: can buy them new, you can buy him secondhand. All

1688
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:45,000
Speaker 3: you have to do is buy them. Two thousand and

1689
01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:47,880
Speaker 3: seven never looks so good. Oh, have a great weekend,

1690
01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:48,880
Speaker 3: everyone in Drive Safe.

1691
01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:52,600
Speaker 2: That was really good. That was also very in the

1692
01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:54,920
Speaker 2: spirit of the podcast, because we're always bringing things back

1693
01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:55,840
Speaker 2: from two thousand and seven.

1694
01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:58,400
Speaker 1: We really are. You know. I saw someone wearing like

1695
01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:01,880
Speaker 1: gladiator sandals the other and I was like, well, this

1696
01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:04,400
Speaker 1: is a new world. The world.

1697
01:13:05,080 --> 01:13:09,559
Speaker 2: I think ballet flats really is the final frontier because

1698
01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:11,120
Speaker 2: you're like everything else.

1699
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:11,960
Speaker 1: You know.

1700
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:14,120
Speaker 2: Yes, you can bring back low rise jeans, you can

1701
01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:16,960
Speaker 2: bring back the thong peaking out whatever. But ballet flats

1702
01:13:16,960 --> 01:13:19,880
