1
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: Well, I invited you. Hear I thought, I made myself

2
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 1: perfectly clear, But you're.

3
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 2: A guess to my home.

4
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: You gotta come to me empty, And I said, no guests,

5
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 1: your own presences presence enough.

6
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 3: I already had too much stuff, So how did you dare.

7
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 4: To surbey me? Welcome to I said, no gifts. I'm

8
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 4: Richard Wineger. Oh oh, what's happened in the last twelve

9
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 4: hours of my life? I can't even begin I started

10
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 4: losing all five rounds of bingo, which was horrible. Then

11
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 4: I went to bed, and now I've spilled coffee on

12
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 4: two different surfaces. First was it found coffee and Eagle Rock,

13
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 4: of course, the unofficial sponsor of the podcast, and I

14
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 4: apologize to everyone there. That was humiliating. Then I drove

15
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 4: to the studio, saw two separate cyber trucks, and then

16
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 4: got to the studio and spilled coffee again. Someone's gonna

17
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 4: burst into the studio and just shoot me. Something is wrong,

18
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 4: Something's deeply, deeply wrong. So that's what I'm dealing with emotionally.

19
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 4: Now what else is going on the well as of recording,

20
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 4: we're a month away from the live show. But when

21
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 4: you hear this it'll be even closer. I don't know when,

22
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 4: but at the Bellhouse in Brooklyn. And we haven't even

23
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 4: said on the podcast who's going to be there yet. Look,

24
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,600

25
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 4: and music from Fen Lilly. We've gone too far. I've

26
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 4: gone too far with this thing. It's going to be

27
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 4: an absolute ball. Google it to get into the show notes.

28
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 4: We've got links everywhere for tickets in the live stream.

00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 2: I'm looking for the exits. Yes, just in case the

00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 2: bad luck continues.

00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,679
Speaker 4: I'll watch your eyes go wide, and then that'll be

45
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 4: the last thing I see I'm so happy to have

46
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 4: you here.

47
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 2: I'm so happy to be here.

48
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 4: I have a lot i'd like to talk to you about.

49
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 4: There is something you were my boss at one point

50
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 4: years ago at this point, but there's something I've always

51
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 4: wanted to ask you about because it was an int

52
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 4: time in my life. I got hired at Jimmy Kimmel

53
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 4: Live at the fall of twenty fourteen, September. I think

54
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 4: at the time you were on maternity leave. Oh okay,

55
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,079
Speaker 4: so my first like month and a half of the job,

56
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 4: you were not present. We didn't meet, and at this time,

57
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 4: to set the table, I was still maybe not outright

58
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 4: telling people I was straight, but at least hoping people

59
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 4: would assume this information. Okay, do you remember the first

60
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 4: time we met.

61
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 2: I do remember the first time we met.

62
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 5: Well, first, I'd like to say that I knew of

63
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 5: your hiring obviously. I remember Jimmy was a big fan

64
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 5: of yours, as was I on Twitter.

65
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 2: Very sweet and he reached out to.

66
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 5: You, and then he emailed me and Danny Ricker the

67
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 5: other head writer or Gary Grienberger I believe, and said

68
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 5: I love this guy on Twitter.

69
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 2: Well let's meet him. I was on maternity leave. I

70
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 2: don't think I met you, right, I did an interview, just.

71
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 5: Came into right, yes, yes, and then I came back

72
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 5: and I met you at the office.

73
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 4: Not true?

74
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 2: No, what where did I meet?

75
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 4: That's why I'm bringing this up.

76
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 2: Okay, good.

77
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 4: It was at a Halloween party. And again I'm at

78
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 4: this point in history, I'm telling people that I'm at

79
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 4: least like completely closeted to everyone and telling people I'm straight.

80
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 4: At this Halloween party, I brought a woman with me,

81
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 4: and the first time I met you, I was dressed

82
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 4: as Anne of green Gables.

83
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 2: Oh my god, yes that's right. Wait was that sALS

84
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 2: Halloween party?

85
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 4: Who's yes, yes, cousin sALS Halloween party.

86
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 2: Yes.

87
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,599
Speaker 4: So it was this moment in like very interesting moment

88
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 4: in my life, like edge of coming out. But still

89
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 4: I cannot believe I was telling people this and still

90
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 4: picking costumes like a hand of green Gables for Halloween.

91
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, that should have been a sign. Wait. Now, this

92
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 2: woman that you brought to the party was as someone

93
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: you were dating. Okay, so like.

94
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 4: Very casually, yes, I've seen her, you know, there were

95
00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,919
Speaker 4: years that I didn't see her, but that I ran

96
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,359
Speaker 4: into her. A couple of years ago at another Halloween party,

97
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 4: and the first thing she said to me was the

98
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 4: last time I saw you, we were like dating.

99
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 2: Wow, that's just a jarring feeling totally.

100
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 5: Wait, so I have to say, I don't recall that

101
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 5: that was the first time meeting, but now I can

102
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 5: completely picture it and feel it, and I don't remember.

103
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 2: Is the question, did I know you were gay when

104
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 2: I met you?

105
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: No?

106
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 4: I was just wondering if you had any memory of this,

107
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 4: because to me, it was a very distinct meeting.

108
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, now I do, I remember it, and I remember thinking, wow,

109
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 5: he looks a lot like I knew you from your

110
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 5: Twitter profile photo. I think it was a visual I

111
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 5: had of you, and it was different obviously when you

112
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 5: were dressed on Halloween.

113
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 4: Right, my Twitter photo looks like kind of like a

114
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 4: woman in prison. Yes, I think that my life until

115
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 4: that point, people are very confused as to who I

116
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 4: was as a person. Very I was a little mysterious,

117
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 4: I would say, And I do think a lot of

118
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 4: people thought like, this is like, if not a woman

119
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 4: in prison, like a very weird looking woman in all denim. Yes,

120
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 4: that's the only basically image of me on the internet.

121
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 2: Right, it's a beautiful.

122
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 4: It's a gorgeous I love that image. Were you, but

123
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 4: I don't feel like you were even in a costume.

124
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 4: I feel like this made such an impression was because

125
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 4: I knew you were my boss right and it was

126
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 4: a first meeting. I was just like, what could she

127
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 4: possibly be thinking right now?

128
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:26,600
Speaker 1: Oh?

129
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 5: I was delighted. I loved you so much on Twitter.

130
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 5: You could have been at that party dressed as anything,

131
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 5: and I would have thought it was the greatest costume.

132
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 2: In the world. But Salowy's had themes for his Halloween party.

133
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 2: Was there a theme?

134
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 4: Because I hope it was Anne of Green Games. I

135
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 4: do too.

136
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 5: He usually had a theme, like I remember one was

137
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 5: Hollywood Boulevard. One was too Soon, which was all now

138
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 5: you look at it to be canceled for what they

139
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 5: were there. There was all sorts of themes. I wonder

140
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 5: if there was a theme that there usually.

141
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 4: Is one Prince Edward Island.

142
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have to go back and see if there

143
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,799
Speaker 2: was a theme. I'll ask Sally. He has an impeccable memory.

144
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't imagine mine was on theme.

145
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 2: There's no way that made it into a theme.

146
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 4: I don't know, Yeah, I don't. I don't even know.

147
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously love an of green Gables. Other than that,

148
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 4: I thought, I guess. I think I was probably out

149
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 4: of costumes of other redheaded people at that point that

150
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 4: I wanted to be, and that was I think that

151
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 4: was probably my Mount Everest.

152
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 2: Now do you dress up every year for Halloween?

153
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 3: Do you?

154
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 2: No?

155
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 4: I actually hate it.

156
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 2: Do you do?

157
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 4: Do you dress up?

158
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 2: I do?

159
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,559
Speaker 5: My husband hates it, so it makes it kind of hard,

160
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 5: But I used to. I loved it as a kid,

161
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 5: and my kids now love it, so I feel like

162
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 5: I should dress up for them because I grew up

163
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 5: My mom always dressed up, and I always thought that

164
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 5: was cool.

165
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 4: Right. Do you do corresponding outfits with your kids? No costumes, not.

166
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 2: Out Yeah, no, I don't do that.

167
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 4: No.

168
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 2: And we don't do like the white T shirt and

169
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 2: the denim photo on the beach either.

170
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 3: Ye.

171
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 2: No, we don't yet. No, not into the whole matching thing.

172
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 5: But it's hard because Jimmy hates to dress up, so

173
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:11,320
Speaker 5: you can't.

174
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 2: You can't do anything with him, right.

175
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 5: I usually just added like a witch or something lame

176
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 5: last minute, just make do it for the kids.

177
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 4: Tam was a witch every year she was it's a

178
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 4: great costume. Everyone should just be a witch for hell, witch,

179
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 4: I agree, everyone looks great in the costume that you

180
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 4: throw the hat on and any level of black clothing.

181
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 2: You're a witch right on the and then you can

182
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 2: do whatever.

183
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 4: You want with the makeup. You don't even have to

184
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 4: have makeup.

185
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 2: No, but you really respect when someone does.

186
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 4: Oh if they go for it. Do you wear makeup?

187
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 2: I haven't done a while. On Halloween, make a big

188
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 2: green I would. I will tell you every Halloween, I

189
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: say to myself. Next year, I'm gonna get serious about this.

190
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 5: Oh, of course, because I look around at parties or

191
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,199
Speaker 5: even just out torturing my.

192
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 2: Kids and I think, why didn't I put a little

193
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: effort into this? And it's always like the day before Halloween.

194
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,199
Speaker 5: I'm scrambling and I swear and I'm not going to

195
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 5: do this next year, and I'll put an alarm on

196
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 5: my phone like for October first reminder, start thinking about it,

197
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 5: and I ignore it, and then I'm the same predicament

198
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 5: every year.

199
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 4: October first is not enough time. I feel like you

200
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 4: do have to think about it for six months if

201
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 4: you're going to have a decent concept.

202
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 2: Totally now, I do it for my kids.

203
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 5: Like, I'll get on Etsy, and I always imagine these

204
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 5: women on Etsy getting so mad at everyone requesting these

205
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 5: custom costumes at the last minute.

206
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 4: I'm sure.

207
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 5: And now I get into this whole thing where I

208
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 5: when I'm buying something on Etsy, I want to know

209
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 5: as much as I can about the person selling them.

210
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 2: Oh, and I'm like, who am I supporting? Where's my

211
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 2: money going?

212
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 4: I've never thought about this.

213
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get really crazy about it, but it's really

214
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 2: hard to tell.

215
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 4: How are you finding out the information about these Etsy sellers?

216
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 5: Well, it's really hard to do. Sometimes you can't really

217
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 5: get a last name sometimes and if I DM with them,

218
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 5: you can sometimes get their name, and then I'll try

219
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 5: to do a quick Google search like or are they

220
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 5: on Facebook? And is my money going to like storm

221
00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 5: the capitol? Like I just you know, I like to

222
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 5: know to know what's going on, But it's really hard

223
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 5: to find real information.

224
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 4: When both of your kids requested to be like a

225
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 4: patriotic eagle for Halloween, ran, it's some difficult sellers exactly. Wow,

226
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 4: that's a that's an interesting idea. I've never really considered that,

227
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 4: but yeah, you can really end up buying from some

228
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 4: dangerous people, I imagine.

229
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just want to make sure I'm not buying

230
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 5: my kid's costume from someone who's trying to take the

231
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 5: rights away.

232
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 2: It is simple.

233
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 4: Have you ever found any bad Eggs?

234
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: No, but I've sniffed it.

235
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 5: I'm like, ooh, this is feeling like it could be bad,

236
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 5: So I'm going to go with the other lady.

237
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 2: Like, you could always find.

238
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 5: A competitor selling a costume, and it might not be

239
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 5: exactly the one you want, right, but you feel.

240
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 2: A little better worth purchase.

241
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 4: It's worth it when you know that you're yeah, yeah, wow,

242
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 4: I've never thought about Etsy for a Halloween costume.

243
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's the place to go. But go early.

244
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 2: They will charge you thirty dollars.

245
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 4: To ship it if you Oh course.

246
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 5: Yeah.

247
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 4: And is it like buy request or do they have

248
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 4: different options?

249
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 2: It's well, I just put in the name of what

250
00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: I want.

251
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 5: So, like, my daughter wanted to be Wednesday from Adams

252
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 5: Family last year, right, should I just put in Wednesday

253
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,839
Speaker 5: costume for kid eight her size? And then you get

254
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 5: a variety of options from different sellers.

255
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 4: Oh, this is incredible.

256
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 2: Some of them are some.

257
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 5: Of them are like putting clearly like getting stuff on

258
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 5: Amazon and just turning it on Etsy, which I don't like.

259
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 2: I like to feel like it's actually been made in

260
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 2: someone's home.

261
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 4: Mm hmm. No, I've just uh, maybe I've watched a

262
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,319
Speaker 4: YouTube about this. I don't know why, but about how

263
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 4: Etsy's kind of getting ruined by these that sort of

264
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 4: person where they basically will show a custom item but

265
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,240
Speaker 4: it's not actually their item, and then they just have

266
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 4: like essentially a factory in China sent it to you

267
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 4: like Amazon.

268
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 2: No, I want it being made in like a living

269
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 2: room in Ohio.

270
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 4: Of course. I want it to smell like a basement. Exactly,

271
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 4: please exactly if it smells clean like plastic, No, it.

272
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 2: Comes in plastic. It's not homemade.

273
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 4: No, that fabric better be from Joe An.

274
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 5: I want to smell a little bit of a cigarette

275
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 5: on it.

276
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 4: It's just ashed all over. Do you know what they're

277
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 4: gonna be for Halloween this year?

278
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 2: Yeah? Boring. My daughter wants to be a cat, which

279
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 2: I've tried to talk about it boring. It's a classic

280
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 2: cost it's classic. And then my son wants to be

281
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,719
Speaker 2: he already already purchased them Grim Reaper. Oh, he's a

282
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 2: little obsessed with death, so that should be fun.

283
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:14,079
Speaker 4: How old is he now?

284
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 2: He's seven.

285
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 4: That's the age I think when you become obsessed with death, isn't.

286
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 5: It totally He asked me questions about death on a

287
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 5: regular basis.

288
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I remember like first second grade, like starting to

289
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 4: become obsessed with death, and then being at the pediatrician's

290
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 4: office and they had like an illustration for parents that

291
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 4: was like, at this age they become obsessed with dying.

292
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 2: Really.

293
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's well, it's good to know because it's completely

294
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 5: true and parents need to be like prepared.

295
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 4: How has that manifested itself?

296
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 5: Well, he lays in bed at night and asks me

297
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 5: things like he goes, when I go up to Heaven,

298
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 5: are they going to have burritos up there? And I'm

299
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 5: like like that type of that's the type of valid question. Yeah,

300
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 5: he wants to know, like what what is eating up there?

301
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 5: Who's going to be up there?

302
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,199
Speaker 2: What kind of like all his stuffed animals get to

303
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 2: be up there? Things like that. So twenty presumptuous, he

304
00:12:59,240 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 2: assumes he's going.

305
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,600
Speaker 4: To a Yeah, by the way, horse, come, we don't know.

306
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 4: You've got a whole horrible life ahead of him. Absolutely

307
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:06,839
Speaker 4: he could make a lot of bad choices.

308
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 5: You could be in purgatory by like third grade. We

309
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 5: don't know, but yeah he does. He asks a lot

310
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 5: of questions about that and our son. It freaked me

311
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 5: out because you know, he had a open heart surgery.

312
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 5: He's had three of them in his short little life,

313
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 5: and he's totally fine and healthy and miraculous and he'll

314
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,719
Speaker 5: love a wonderful, full life. But he asks, like, right

315
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 5: before his last surgery, he was asking a lot about heaven.

316
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 4: And it's freaking me out.

317
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 5: It's like, dude, please stop talking about death. He's like,

318
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 5: it's gonna be okay when I die, because it's gonna

319
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 5: be fun up.

320
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 2: There and there's gonna be no pain. I'm like, okay,

321
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 2: what boy? Yeah, so that was fun.

322
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 4: Where do kids get Like, who provides the first information

323
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 4: about death to a child? Is it TV? Oh that's

324
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:53,479
Speaker 4: a great question, older siblings.

325
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 2: I don't many books. Oh, interesting books are cartoons?

326
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 4: Right? Really?

327
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 5: Every Disney movie has somebody dies, like the first five

328
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 5: minutes up right, just traumatic.

329
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 4: Very true.

330
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 2: There's a lot of death in kids movies.

331
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 4: Always a villain falling from a cliff or something. Yeah,

332
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 4: run over by a train, interesting, Yeah, and I wonder.

333
00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 4: I guess there's just some point where your intelligence and

334
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 4: the world around you click and you're like, oh yeah,

335
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 4: this can happen to me. Yeah, oh yeah, then it

336
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 4: just haunts you for I mean, for the rest of

337
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 4: elementary school. I'm just like avoiding death at all comes.

338
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 2: Are you afraid of death?

339
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 4: At the time, my two big fears were getting a tapeworm,

340
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 4: dying of a tapeworm, or rabies.

341
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 2: Awesome, Well did those Where did those come from? Did

342
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 2: you hear a story.

343
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 4: The rabies came from? Well? I had a rat in

344
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 4: first grade because I was obsessed with ninja turtles. My

345
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 4: mom wouldn't allow for whatever reason, she decided a turtle

346
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 4: wasn't appropriate, but a rat would be fine. Splinter and

347
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 4: that's what my rat became. That's what it was name.

348
00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 4: But it escaped into our garage and we all it

349
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 4: became rabid. My brother shot it to death with a

350
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 4: be begun. My apologies to the listener. Oh no, the

351
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 4: world I grew up, Oh no, But so that was

352
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 4: the first thing where I was like, oh, an animal

353
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 4: can become rabbit and spread disease. Okay, the tape worm.

354
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 4: God only knows it must have come from a sibling.

355
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 4: But I was afraid. I was deathitely afraid of eating

356
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 4: like raw bacon, all these things, right, and then having

357
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 4: this worm just living in me.

358
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a terrifying visual for a child. I was

359
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 5: afraid of being kidnapped.

360
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean that's a curial classes.

361
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 5: I think that was I think there were too many

362
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 5: like movies and TV shows.

363
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 2: Or kidnapping occurred. Maybe in the eighties. I feel like

364
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 2: there were the headlines of kids being kidnapped maybe.

365
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 4: Right, Is that still like a thing that is a

366
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 4: real concern, like in elementary schools.

367
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 5: Not to my kids. They don't have a fear of

368
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 5: being kidnapped. I wish they would, you know, a little

369
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 5: more fear. They are more afraid of robbers about it

370
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 5: because someone broke in, like down the street and driving

371
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 5: school and I saw cops in a helicopter and they

372
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 5: asked me what.

373
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 2: That was about.

374
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 5: Oh, like, oh, I think maybe there was a robber,

375
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 5: and now everything's about robbers.

376
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I think that that's kind of natural to

377
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 4: life from Los Angeles.

378
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 2: Yes, agreed, Because we're.

379
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 4: Growing up in another set. You're not hearing a helicopter

380
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 4: every single night. No, I think I hadn't heard really

381
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 4: a helicopter until I moved to La Same and now

382
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 4: it's literally just a fact of life.

383
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 3: It is.

384
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 5: I remember when I lived in West Hollywood and I

385
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 5: was working for the show, and that was right when

386
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,640
Speaker 5: Paris Hilton was in and out of jail, and it

387
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 5: was just the sound of helicopters constantly, oh.

388
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 2: Just following her around.

389
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 5: So then when I think of when I hear helicopter,

390
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,640
Speaker 5: I think of Paris Hilton. It's a lovely memory.

391
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 4: When you were afraid of kidnappers as a kid, we

392
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 4: like in my elementary school, there was always like warnings

393
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 4: of like look out for this sort of car. I

394
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 4: remember people being like look out for the junkie green call.

395
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 5: Yes, you always have assumed it was like an unmarked

396
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 5: van with no windows like kidnapper vans.

397
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 4: Right, And I feel like that's just probably simply wasn't true.

398
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 4: It's probably like a new model for uh, what is

399
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 4: a Ford Escort?

400
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, totally total Ford Escar.

401
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 4: It wasn't like a nineteen seventy like a classic green

402
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,360
Speaker 4: car driving around snatching kids.

403
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 2: Now, did that come from Scooby Doo or something? Well,

404
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 2: they had they must have.

405
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 5: I feel like, yeah, I don't know. I'm having like

406
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 5: a visual of a green I know they had their van,

407
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 5: right the.

408
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 4: Van, and yeah, there are a bunch of other like

409
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 4: kind of boat style cars in that kind of cartoon,

410
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 4: But I don't I mean, no one was ever kidnapped

411
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 4: within our neighborhood by a junkie green car.

412
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 2: You know, but you don't know any you know, you

413
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:41,920
Speaker 2: don't know where those kids went.

414
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 4: That's very, very true. We had a lot of missing children.

415
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 2: I'm in Utah.

416
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 4: Yes, no, I didn't get kidnapped. I didn't get a

417
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 4: tape for them, and I never got rabies. Congratulations, Thank

418
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 4: you so much. I'm open to all three at this point.

419
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 2: Okay, what are your fears now?

420
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 4: I don't really have any, Like, yeah, that's it. My

421
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 4: fears now are more about the people in my life

422
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 4: rather than myself.

423
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 2: Which, hey, you look at you. That's good. You've grown up.

424
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 4: I'm an adult now. I'm an adult that's happy to die.

425
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're you're fine with all these to you, You're

426
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,119
Speaker 5: ready to put out of your misery.

427
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 4: But I'm trying to think of like actual one thing

428
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,439
Speaker 4: I do have a fear of is like this, weird

429
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 4: irrational fear of like being in a space where like

430
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:29,760
Speaker 4: I raise my head up quickly and a nail goes

431
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 4: through my head. Like wow, I have like this weird

432
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 4: impalement fear.

433
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 5: Really yeah, you lift your head up and a nail

434
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 5: goes through it, right, like it's nailed on a wall behind,

435
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 5: like a.

436
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 4: Loose nail coming out of board or something. There's something

437
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 4: very visceral and terrifying about that.

438
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 2: Is that new?

439
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 4: No, that's been a long time thing that like since

440
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,400
Speaker 4: a kid, Like we would do a lot of work

441
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 4: around the house. And I think that helping my dad

442
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 4: and being like in the attic or whatever, I think

443
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 4: there's some fear of like it's gonna happen.

444
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:55,440
Speaker 2: That makes sense.

445
00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 4: There's gonna be a nail in my brain.

446
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 5: Right, and now you're doing so much of that around

447
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 5: your own absolutely zero, And I thought thoughts that I

448
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 5: think you can let that fear go.

449
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 2: I have a feeling you're.

450
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 4: Not worth That's when it gets you. Yeah, right, when

451
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 4: you least expect.

452
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,439
Speaker 2: Exactly that's true. You're right. You got to keep your

453
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 2: guard up.

454
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,439
Speaker 4: When you're simply incapable of home improvement, that's when it

455
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 4: gets the Nail comes story. Do you have any fears

456
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 4: like this?

457
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 2: I don't think I do.

458
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 5: I just have a recurring dream constantly. I know that's

459
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 5: very common, that I'm in college and I realize, oh

460
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 5: my god, I didn't study for a test.

461
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 2: It still happens.

462
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 5: Still, Yeah, still do that, And still have this dream

463
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 5: that I'm in a class and I realized it's the

464
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 5: last day and I haven't been this whole time and

465
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 5: it's the final.

466
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 4: Oh no, Yeah, how was that still haunting?

467
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 2: I don't know.

468
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 4: I wonder if it's work. Yeah, having to wake up

469
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 4: every morning and have answers to Yeah, I mean like

470
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 4: writing jokes kind of feels like homeworks totally.

471
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 2: You have to have it ideas every morning, right right? Yeah,

472
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 2: that maybe that is it.

473
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 5: And then I always have a fear that I didn't

474
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,159
Speaker 5: take my birth from pill and I have not been

475
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 5: on the birth control pill for twenty years or something,

476
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,439
Speaker 5: and I wake up like, oh, I forgot to take it,

477
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,959
Speaker 5: and I'm like, oh, I don't have to. I don't have

478
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 5: to do that anymore.

479
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 4: What a weird built in fear. Yeah, but I guess

480
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 4: you just are so terrified of that for such a

481
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 4: long time.

482
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, And it's like a thing you feel like you

483
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 5: forgot to take it, and if you do, then that

484
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 5: could be problematic.

485
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,640
Speaker 4: I don't know, right, Wow, Yeah, I don't have any

486
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 4: recurring dreams anymore. I had them a lot as a kid.

487
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 4: But I guess the nail thing is the one big

488
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 4: and then I'm gonna I am going to die behind

489
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 4: the wheel knock.

490
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 2: I mean, oh no.

491
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,680
Speaker 4: Near car accidents I almost caused today alone, probably eleven.

492
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: You're a terrible driver.

493
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 4: I'm getting worse you are. I'm getting so much for us.

494
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 1: Oh.

495
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 4: No, do you feel like you're a steady quality driver.

496
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 2: I do. I think I'm a pretty steady quality driver.

497
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 5: I will say I'm a competitive driver, though, and I

498
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 5: get a little impatient, and I realized I'm going to

499
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 5: get myself in trouble. But right, maybe you should maybe

500
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 5: the self driving cars in your future.

501
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 4: Oh, but that's scary. I don't trust any of these

502
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 4: Silicon Valley people to be behind the wheel either.

503
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 2: No, I don't either.

504
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 5: But I do think that you probably have a greater

505
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,719
Speaker 5: chance of being in an accident if you're behind the wheel.

506
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 4: Yeah. Possibly, maybe I am worse than a robot.

507
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're sure. I've always said that about you, You're

508
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 2: worse than a robot.

509
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 4: I want that to be spread around. That's to start.

510
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 2: I'm going to start.

511
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 4: No, I think what's kind of contributing to it are

512
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,479
Speaker 4: two things. First of all, my boyfriend Jim is constantly

513
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 4: telling me I'm a bad driver. Okay, And then I've

514
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 4: taken off Whenever I use Google Maps, I take off freeways.

515
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 4: I unless I really have to use a freeway, guess where,

516
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 4: I will only do surface streets. So then when I'm

517
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 4: on freeways at this point, I'm very out of my element. Okay,

518
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 4: And essentially, like a senior citizen driver, I'm very slow.

519
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 4: I don't know what I'm doing. I'm missing exits.

520
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 2: So when you and Jim go somewhere he drives.

521
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 4: He demands, ye lease let me drive. Why because occasionally

522
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 4: he'll complain, I like, I have to drive, drive everywhere,

523
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:08,880
Speaker 4: like I offer every single time.

524
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 5: Jimmy loves to drive, and I love to be a passenger. Great, perfect, Yes,

525
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 5: I love to be a passenger.

526
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love to be a passenger. I also love

527
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 4: to drive alone. If you do, I do like because

528
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 4: you get into like a flow state sort of thing

529
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 4: where you're like concentrating enough.

530
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 2: You're a better driver when you're alone.

531
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, okay, Oh my god. If if I am

532
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 4: driving and Jim is in the passenger seat, we are

533
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 4: in three times as much dangerous because he's constantly like

534
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 4: gasping or be like you're gonna kill us.

535
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 2: Okay, that sounds really fun.

536
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,120
Speaker 5: Now are you guys? Do you agree on the same

537
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 5: things to listen to in the car?

538
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 4: Ah, that's a really good question. I am kind of

539
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,919
Speaker 4: in control because I have better taste. I simply have

540
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 4: better taste in music than he does.

541
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 2: Would he agree with that statement?

542
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 4: He would? I think he probably would. He would say probably,

543
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 4: I know more about within popular music. I have a

544
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 4: better grasp of everything. A lot of the music I

545
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 4: listen to he doesn't want to listen to because, in fairness,

546
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,720
Speaker 4: it's loud and obnoxious. But the other half of the

547
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 4: music I listened to he's on board with. So I'm

548
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,439
Speaker 4: basically the DJ. Do you, guys, I can't imagine you

549
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 4: too get along.

550
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 5: You see, there's an eleven year difference, and he is

551
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,640
Speaker 5: all about if we're at ugimmy to be yacht rock

552
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 5: all day, every day, And I like to listen to

553
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 5: things that are a little more current. Sure, I have

554
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 5: all respect for the yacht rock, but there's only so much.

555
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 5: Like Hollin Oates and Michael McDonald. I'm like, okay, I

556
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 5: got it man. And he also has a harmon. He

557
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 5: has a multiple harmonicas that he keeps on the what's

558
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 5: this called?

559
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 2: Yuh thank you? He keeps multiple harmonicas on the visor

560
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 2: and then plays the harmonica while driving. And it's a nightmare.

561
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 2: It's a nightmare.

562
00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 6: That is dangerous behavior, dangerous. It's he's practicing, so it's

563
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:08,160
Speaker 6: not exactly arable, and it's hell, it's.

564
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 2: My hell on earth?

565
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 4: Is it every drive? Mostly Yeah, he's playing along to

566
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 4: the music on the car.

567
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 5: Yeah, oh sure, Oh Billy Joeld piano man, that one

568
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 5: actually is good. He can do that one really well.

569
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,199
Speaker 5: But then he'll just add harmonica to songs that have

570
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 5: no harmonica.

571
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 4: When did this behavior begin?

572
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 2: Too long ago?

573
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 5: A guy would say, eight to ten years ago?

574
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 4: Oh no, yeah, what are you going to find an

575
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 4: instrument for you to play?

576
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,400
Speaker 5: I have to tell you no, I have to tell

577
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 5: you the beginning, I've thought, Oh, this is charming, this

578
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,480
Speaker 5: is cute. He's like learning, and he's not he's learning

579
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 5: he knows, and I'm like, oh, he's practicing an instrument

580
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 5: in the car. What a multitasker. And now I can

581
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 5: barely stand it because it's just really loud.

582
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 2: It's all his years in radio.

583
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 5: He's kind of he is like partially, Oh sure, everything,

584
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 5: everything for him has to be so much louder. And

585
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 5: I'm very sensitive to noise. Okay, And yeah it's not

586
00:24:58,640 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 5: a good combo.

587
00:24:59,680 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 3: Is he?

588
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 4: Do you have one of those little things like that,

589
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 4: like Neil Young? Oh?

590
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 2: Yes he does, Yes, he does.

591
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 5: He wears it around his neck and he holds this

592
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 5: so the harmonica holds out in front of his mouth

593
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 5: as he drives, and then he puts.

594
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 2: It in when he's ready.

595
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 4: To me, it's incredible.

596
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:17,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is divorce.

597
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 4: It is simply divorce.

598
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 2: Reconcilable difference right there, the harmonica.

599
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 4: Wow. Wow, I I mean, I don't even know what

600
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 4: to say. I mean, when that does lead to a

601
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,360
Speaker 4: car accident, that's gonna be all over the news.

602
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 2: I know, I can't I kind of can't wait. I mean,

603
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:32,919
Speaker 2: I wanted to be like a little one.

604
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, just like a minor, like you rear in somebody

605
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:36,680
Speaker 4: and then you have to explain you were playing the

606
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 4: harm I want.

607
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 5: A shot of him getting out of the car with

608
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 5: that like thing around his neck.

609
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 4: Yes, I'm going to buy you a recorder. You can

610
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 4: have that in the glove bar.

611
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,400
Speaker 2: Oh that's a great idea. That's a great look.

612
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 4: I think you too could have a little bay and

613
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:50,679
Speaker 4: I should.

614
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 5: Break out an instrument like, Hey, that's the best way

615
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 5: to get him to stop.

616
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 4: Break out an instrument on an airplane. Yeah, take this

617
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 4: to a whole new level. I mean, well, speaking of

618
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 4: totally inappropriate behavior. Look, I was looking forward to having

619
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 4: you here on the podcast today, Molly. I thought, we'll

620
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 4: have a great time, we'll talk about all kinds of things,

621
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:17,280
Speaker 4: and then we'll go home, everyone feeling their best. Everyone

622
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 4: feeling their best. So look, you texted me before you

623
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 4: got to the studio, and you've said, very sweetly, at

624
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 4: least in the moment, would you like any Poqito moss,

625
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 4: the Mexican food? And I said no. And then on

626
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,679
Speaker 4: my drive here, I started thinking why would Molly offer this?

627
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 4: And then I started to realizing maybe she's done something wrong,

628
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 4: maybe she's already trying to make up for some mistake

629
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:43,159
Speaker 4: she's made. And so I was it all kind of

630
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 4: came together. The podcast is called I said no gifts.

631
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 4: Let's just we all know that you've got the emails

632
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 4: and you show up to the studio holding a gift. Yes,

633
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 4: And so clearly this offer of food was not just

634
00:26:54,960 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 4: some good thing, good deed. It was ute trying to

635
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 4: cover your tracks. Obviously, this is a gift.

636
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 2: For me, yes, I okay, listen. I don't believe it

637
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 2: when people say no gifts.

638
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 5: And in fact, when I was married, when I got married,

639
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 5: I am still married and married for eleven years. This

640
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,120
Speaker 5: was my first wedding, this was my second, my husband's

641
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 5: second wedding, and he has a nice amount of money,

642
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 5: and he said on the wedding invitation, no gifts, sure,

643
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 5: which seemed like totally the right thing to do, right right,

644
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,400
Speaker 5: But I didn't like it, and I didn't want people

645
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,120
Speaker 5: to actually take it seriously, and they almost all did.

646
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 2: And I don't like no gifts.

647
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 5: When people say no gifts, I see that as an

648
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 5: invitation to bring again. I mean, I spent my twenties

649
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,399
Speaker 5: like spending my whole bank account will go to like

650
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 5: Creighton Barrel and Williams Sonoma and all the other places

651
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 5: I had to buy wedding gifts. And then it was

652
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 5: my day and it was no gifts, and I got nothing,

653
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 5: and I don't like no gifts.

654
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 2: So here is yours.

655
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 4: That's a rough feeling. Well that does feel like justified?

656
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 4: Be this is fully justified? Should I open it here

657
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 4: on the podcast?

658
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: Yeah?

659
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:08,719
Speaker 4: I think so. Okay, let's get into it here. It's

660
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 4: this beautiful white polka dot box.

661
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 2: You call that the like TV rappings that we call it.

662
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 2: You know, when you give a gift on.

663
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 5: A TV show, like on a late night show that

664
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 5: I work for, you have to have the lid that

665
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 5: pops off. You can't actually wrap it because it causes

666
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 5: too much.

667
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 4: Noise, huge amount of noise, a little inside and look

668
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,200
Speaker 4: at this, you're just going to listener is just gonna

Speaker 4: Yeah, that really is ribbon off box asa more. Okay,

672
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 4: Oh my god, what is this?

673
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 2: It's your packet?

674
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 4: Oh my god?

675
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 2: Oh my is Bridger packet?

676
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 5: There is no he sent us in twenty fourteen, when

677
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 5: Jimmy asked him to submit to be a writer on

678
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 5: Jimmy Kimmelive.

679
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 2: This is and I've saved it.

680
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 4: Absolutely mortified.

681
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 3: I know, I.

682
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 2: Understand why you say no gifts.

683
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 4: I mean, there's literally no way I will share this

684
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 4: information anywhere. Well, I mean, the first thing that's really

685
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 4: horrifying to me is that the first page starts with

686
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,959
Speaker 4: a resume, which I like that it's professional.

687
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 5: By the way, there's one word on that resume that

688
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 5: immediately got you a job interview.

689
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 2: And that that word is Letterman. Oh of course, yeah,

690
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 2: you interned it Letterman. Is that correct?

691
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 4: Yes, I interned at Letterman in two thousand and nine,

692
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 4: which David Letterman. I love that Jimmy Kimmel and I share,

693
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 4: I think deeply. Yes. So I mean, oh my god,

694
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 4: I cannot believe I'm looking.

695
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 2: At You're sweating right now.

696
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 4: I might quit the business, give absolutely, That's what I

697
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 4: was afraid. The only thing that the listener will see

698
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 4: of this is me burning it.

699
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 5: Do you know what I tried. I'm probably going to

700
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:56,959
Speaker 5: get in the mail tomorrow.

701
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 2: On Etsy, I found paper that has seeds in it.

702
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 2: You know that you can plant and then grow flowers.

703
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 5: And that's my goal was to print it on that

704
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 5: so you could go bury it and grow flowers. And

705
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 5: I am going to still do that for you, and

706
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 5: I'll send it to to your home so you can

707
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 5: bury your packet and let it grow fruit.

708
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, for the listener. You know, when you try to

709
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 4: get a job at a late night show, I don't

710
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:22,959
Speaker 4: even I don't even know if this is how you

711
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 4: currently you gut probably still do kind of You have

712
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 4: to submit basically just jokes who created out of thin

713
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 4: air to the show, and it's a I will say,

714
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 4: kind of a trap. Yeah, because it's an interesting thing

715
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 4: where you have to shoot for the voice of the

716
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 4: show but also show who you are totally and it

717
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 4: kind of ends up being a nearly impossible task.

718
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 2: So you did a really good job at it.

719
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 4: I cannot imagine.

720
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 5: This is what the beauty of your packet is that

721
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 5: you did exactly that you understood the voice of the show,

722
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 5: but also.

723
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 2: Brought this totally.

724
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 5: There's an Oprah joke in there that's the funniest things

725
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 5: I've ever read.

726
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you wrote so well. It's totally it's

727
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 2: like a perfect packet.

728
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 4: Read it. Yes, Oh, they have to beat this out.

729
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 4: I will leave the business.

730
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,320
Speaker 5: Okay, No, there are some good there's a there are

731
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 5: two bits in there that are so they made me

732
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 5: laugh out loud today, which is ten years later. And

733
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 5: the goal usually for a submission packet is so that

734
00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 5: writers show that they can write timely jokes and then

735
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 5: bits it in the voice of the show, but also

736
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 5: feel original. And you did a lot of the topical

737
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 5: news jokes and then like the last two pages, that's

738
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 5: what it's like.

739
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 2: We're Bridger shines. It's like full Bridger jokes.

740
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 4: I cannot believe what I'm looking at. I'm so sorry

741
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 4: to everyone listening because this just me my bones just shattering.

742
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 2: Now, melting down right now.

743
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,719
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I'm having I'm like shaking. Oh.

744
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 2: I feel terrible. What a terrible gift, but also wonderful.

745
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 2: I love it. He is a great peck. Can let

746
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 2: me read a joke in there? Get handed to me,

747
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 2: let me look.

748
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 4: I'm looking at this for another moment. I am just

749
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 4: oh my god, I'm just have you looked.

750
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 2: At your I mean, I assume like you wrote that.

751
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 2: I haven't looked at since.

752
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 4: I mean, of course, especially with the late night packet,

753
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 4: where you're like when you do it, you're like, I

754
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 4: don't and then when you don't, get like you don't

755
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 4: hear anything. You're just you're like, I'll never look at

756
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 4: that again, right, And even when you do, you're like,

757
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 4: I don't want to know what my boss saw. Like

758
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 4: it's like your boss saw you naked.

759
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, totally, I know.

760
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 4: I would rather my boss see meaning I will.

761
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 5: Say, I told so I told the room that Jimmy

762
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 5: kimme alive yesterday in a writer room, I thought I

763
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,719
Speaker 5: was bringing the packet and they all gasp but then

764
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 5: laugh and like that's great and terrible at the same time.

765
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 2: So I understand what you're feeling right now.

766
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 5: I think it's universally felt among every writer right now

767
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 5: listening to this feeling a little itchy.

768
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 4: I wish that the gunman that I had mentioned at

769
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 4: the beginning of the episode had gotten here a little earlier.

770
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 2: I was just gonna say, you know, you were right

771
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 2: about this day. It is getting worse. I'm sorry, sorry

772
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 2: that I was part of that.

773
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 4: Okay, I have found the Oprah joke.

774
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 2: It's such a funny joke.

775
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 4: Okay, I will say, this is not a bad, cute,

776
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 4: funny joke.

777
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 2: I love this joke.

778
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 4: This is it's almost like a yeah, I guess I

779
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 4: did like topical jokes and then just like weird joke

780
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 4: ish things. It wouldn't be like on the show.

781
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 5: This is not a traditional late night writer packet joke.

782
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 5: It is a very bridger joke. But I will say

783
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 5: you did a page of the topical type of set

784
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 5: up news story punch like punchline, and then you just

785
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 5: had fun with jokes like.

786
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 4: These got okay. So it's in quotes. It's a quote

787
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 4: that says Tomorrow on Oprah, and then the it's attributed

788
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 4: to Oprah picking out Tomorrow's outfit. It's so good, it's

789
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 4: very stupid.

790
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 2: I love it. I love that joke. It's such a

791
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 2: good joke.

792
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 4: I am. I mean, I'm still just the fact that

793
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 4: my resume is on the front of this.

794
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 2: I know, when's the last time you wrote a resume? Probably?

795
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 4: Then that's the weird thing about this industry is like

796
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 4: any other business. And that's why I probably got every

797
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 4: other industry good, because you actually have to submit resumes

798
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 4: and be a normal person, right this one. Once you

799
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 4: get a job, you never think about a resume again.

800
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 2: Never remember, like in.

801
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 5: Like college, things like stressful, like I have to know

802
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 5: exactly how like how to do a resume, and then

803
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 5: I remember taking on extracurriculars, specifically for my resume, ne

804
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:20,359
Speaker 5: to pad it out.

805
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like a yearbook and spirit club and

806
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 2: like all this.

807
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 4: Bush and those are all right here. I've got spirit club, cheerleader.

808
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:29,920
Speaker 2: Are all there.

809
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:32,959
Speaker 4: I mean it goes this goes back to me working.

810
00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm like telling Jimmy Kimmel, I worked at

811
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 4: overstock dot com. Why would anyone at the show care

812
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 4: about that?

813
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 2: I care?

814
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 4: I love it.

815
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 2: Well, it's gone now, right, So.

816
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 4: Did you put on a story about overstock dot com

817
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 4: they bought bed Bath and Beyond right changed completely to

818
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 4: they said, we're now bed Bath and Beyond. That lasted

819
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,920

822
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,759
Speaker 4: Bath and Beyond is dead, but they resurrected it and

823
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 4: tried to become it and then that I guess that

824
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 4: probably didn't work out or it was like I'm sure, I'm.

825

834
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 4: name of your business, right, so don't change it completely.

835
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,320
Speaker 4: And second of all, you're you're becoming a business that

836
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:39,320
Speaker 4: went out of business.

837
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:40,640

Speaker 5: There, Yeah, well yeah, if you had, you know, instead

841
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 5: of writing opra jokes stuck with overstock dot com, maybe

842
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 5: you could have saved it.

843
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 4: But yeah, then it's got my I mean, I'm also

844

Speaker 4: I didn't see those in Microsoft Office, Adobe Creative Suite.

847
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 4: Online resources. What does that even mean? I can use

Speaker 5: can google? Like, how does that sound? More professional?

852
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 2: Online online resource.

853
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 4: That is not a skill strong writing and editing experience

854
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 4: in various genres. That's at the time simply not true.

855
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 2: Right, I mean, like your genres you're at Letterman and.

856
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:38,040

Speaker 4: in both Windows and Mac operating systems.

858
00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 2: Good, because a good late night writer needs those.

859
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 4: And then just general office and organizational skills.

860
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:50,759
Speaker 2: That's wonderful.

861
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 4: You need me to buy paper clips or refill the fridge?

862
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:58,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, what we needed from you? This is just great.

863
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:00,399
Speaker 4: This is I'm like, I feel like I'm string into

864
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 4: the sun. I'm just going absolutely blind.

865
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,399
Speaker 5: Look, I will say, you physically changed when you open

866
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 5: that package, Like I really it's like saying ghost.

867
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:09,319
Speaker 2: It really did.

868
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,800
Speaker 5: I feel like you started melting a little bit. I'm sorry,

869
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 5: and I'm also delighted I have brought you back to

870
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:15,720
Speaker 5: the past.

871
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:21,839
Speaker 4: My Twitter follower count did grow, so that's good. Okay, great,

872
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,359
Speaker 4: this was before the website became an absolute hell.

873
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:26,839
Speaker 2: I love God.

874
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 5: He used to love you on Twitter, and I don't

875
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 5: go on there anymore. So I'm sorry if I'm not.

876
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 4: I'm not tweeting. Yeah, I mean nobody. I mean you

877
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:37,880
Speaker 4: get on there and it's just like racist and horrible psychos.

878
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like I should not be.

879
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 4: I get on there. I tweet out the link to

880
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,000
Speaker 4: the podcast, so here you go, and then I and

881
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:47,120
Speaker 4: then you get out, get out of there. But people

882
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 4: are still apparently using it.

883
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 2: I know, I'm very confused by that. It used to

884
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:51,359
Speaker 2: be so fun.

885
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 5: He's just going there and just I love the I

886
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,880
Speaker 5: mean you and like Rob Delaney, like Megan Amram, just

887
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,359
Speaker 5: like reading people's great jokes ever day.

888
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:01,400
Speaker 2: It was happy.

889
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 4: It was kind of like a miracle. I mean, especially

890
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,080
Speaker 4: for somebody like me who had literally no industry connections,

891
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 4: or like when I moved to Los Angeles, knew nobody here,

892
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 4: and it was like immediately this built in thing that

893
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,400
Speaker 4: I could at least start kind of. I mean, that's

894
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,399
Speaker 4: how I got my jobs, how you got your job,

895
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:17,359
Speaker 4: first writing job.

896
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,240
Speaker 5: Jimmy sent us your Twitter and said, this guy is great.

897
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 5: It's so crazy, and then that beautiful packet came into

898
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 5: my inbox. About a month after that.

899
00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 4: I got that DM from Jimmy a month after I

900
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 4: had decided I was basically going to move back to

901
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:32,839
Speaker 4: Salt Lake Sitting. Really, I was literally at the time

902
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,359
Speaker 4: researching social media jobs in Salt Lake Sitting, being like, well,

903
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 4: I tried.

909
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,200

912
00:38:58,160 --> 00:38:58,319
Speaker 1: Oh.

913
00:38:58,440 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 2: I would say you have like one of the highest

914
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 2: approval ratings. Just personality and talent that makes me.

915
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,800
Speaker 4: I mean, it literally changed my life. I've told Jimmy

916
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 4: that probably too many times at this point, but I

917
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 4: should tell you as well. I mean it like literally

918
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 4: saved my life.

919
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,879
Speaker 2: So good, well your life's ending today, so I'm glad. Yes.

920
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 5: And then I believe it was last year we were

921
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 5: in rehearsal. We were doing a Mike Lindell bit. We

922
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 5: have James a Doomian does a great Mike Lindell impression,

923
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 5: and Jimmy said, you know who should play the KFC

924
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 5: manager Bridge or someone call him?

925
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,759
Speaker 4: I think it was I don't remember, because Lindall had

926
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 4: just like gotten arrested at a Hardy's.

927
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 5: And it just came out we all and it was

928
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 5: one of those things like, of course you should play that.

929
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 5: And then you showed up and did you were wonderful,

930
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 5: and it was everyone was just so happy to.

931
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 2: See you back.

932
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,359
Speaker 4: I should be playing a Hardy's manager on every TV show.

933
00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 2: I think you should too. You did a really good job.

934
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love it. Like I left that job feeling

935
00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 4: very sad. It was another like when I got the

936
00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:59,279
Speaker 4: When I first got the job, I went out to

937
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 4: my car and cried, than when I left the job,

938
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 4: I went up to my car and cry. The only

939
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 4: thing I didn't regret leaving of that job was having

940
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 4: to at least professionally think about Donald Trump every time. Yeah,

941
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 4: which is something that you and the rest of that staff.

942
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 4: I mean, it's just you're made of steel. For me,

943
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 4: it was like I left the show mid twenty sixteen,

944
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 4: and so that's when all that this morons bullshit was

945
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 4: just ramping up. And even then I was like, I

946
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 4: don't know how much longer I can do this.

947
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:27,920
Speaker 2: I have to tell you.

948
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 5: It definitely takes a psychological toll on everyone. And I've

949
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 5: told my therapist like, hey, I just you know, I'm

950
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 5: so angry and I'm so scared, and I'm just like,

951
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 5: you know, you you need to just turn all that off.

952
00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:40,279
Speaker 5: And I'm like, yeah, but I can't so.

953
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:41,879
Speaker 4: Easy to sort of the job.

954
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:45,040
Speaker 2: I have to do it in order to write right,

955
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:46,799
Speaker 2: and it's so it's hard.

956
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 5: But there's also this part of you that very naively

957
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 5: thinks I have to absorb it all so that I

958
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 5: can inform other.

959
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 4: People, all right, because they need to hear.

960
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:58,840
Speaker 5: We can't normalize what's going on in the world. And

961
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 5: but I'm sure we're not moving the needle at all,

962
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 5: but I think you are now. I don't know, I

963
00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 5: feel like it's so split, and it's just like people

964
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 5: are in there. It's like Super Bowl Sunday. Every day,

965
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:09,839
Speaker 5: no one's going to root for the other team.

966
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,759
Speaker 4: It's like, I think, I actually these are some things

967
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 4: I'll say. First of all, I don't know if I

968
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 4: mean I think that there is hope. I mean, my

969
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 4: dad's not voting for Donald Trump, which is one of

970
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 4: the most I love my father. We have such a

971
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:25,799
Speaker 4: great relationship, but he's been a lifelong Republican. Same had

972
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 4: he voted for Donald Trump twice and he told me

973
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 4: just a couple of months ago, I can't do it,

974
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,440
Speaker 4: which to me, I just like, isn't that such a

975
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 4: much feeling? And so I think that there is that hope,

976
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 4: and I think Jimmy Kimmel alive really does. Like I

977
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,839
Speaker 4: think the way the show operated for such a long

978
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,920
Speaker 4: time in kind of an almost a political way, like

979
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,640
Speaker 4: made it the perfect place to be. Like even Jimmy

980
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 4: has had enough.

981
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,320
Speaker 2: Of this, right ye acause we never covered politics.

982
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 4: Right, never, and not like in an irresponsible way. It

983
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 4: just like wasn't part of what the show was, right,

984
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 4: And so when you hear somebody like a show like this,

985
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 4: that's like, we cannot handle this horrible person. Yeah, it's

986
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,360
Speaker 4: like I think the audience, I think I don't know,

987
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:05,879
Speaker 4: I think there is something important.

988
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 2: About Well, that's nice. I appreciate that.

989
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:11,320
Speaker 5: My dad also voted for Trump the first time, and

990
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 5: then shortly after moved to Puerto Rico.

991
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if you remember.

992
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 5: Then shortly after that the hurricane hit and that's when

993
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 5: Donald Trump went down and like threw bounty people's heads,

994
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 5: and I I had lost touch with my dad. I

995
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 5: didn't know if he was okay, And for days I

996
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,480
Speaker 5: was like, I don't know if he's alive or dead.

997
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 5: And then I got an email from my dad about

998
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 5: five days after the hurricane hit, and it said I

999
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:40,800
Speaker 5: just waited eight hours in line to get one gallon

1000
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 5: of gas for sixty dollars so I could charge my

1001
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 5: phone to tell you that Donald Trump sucks. And it's

1002
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 5: the greatest email I've ever received in my life.

1003
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 2: It was I thought.

1004
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 5: I was like, I'm here, I'm alive. It's like, no,

1005
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 5: I did all this to tell you. I just like,

1006
00:42:57,880 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 5: sacrifice all this to.

1007
00:42:58,920 --> 00:42:59,839
Speaker 2: Tell you that you were right.

1008
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 4: He's for and country.

1009
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:04,880
Speaker 2: Yes, I agree, that is.

1010
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,320
Speaker 5: I grew up in a very conservative home. My dad like,

1011
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 5: I used to listen to Russia Limba with my dad.

1012
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,600
Speaker 5: I bought I remember saving my babysitting money to buy

1013
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,440
Speaker 5: my dad a rush Limbaugh tie, going to Chesterfield Mall

1014
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 5: and salist.

1015
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:17,799
Speaker 4: Is that TI?

1016
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,280
Speaker 2: Does I have rush On color like a Bill Cosby

1017
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,759
Speaker 2: ish colorful? I think that's my memory of it.

1018
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 5: But yeah, it's interesting to grow up one way and

1019
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 5: then kind of find your own way, which I think

1020
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:33,960
Speaker 5: is commendable to you and to me.

1021
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 4: Of course, look at us, of course, you know, we.

1022
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 2: Kind of found our own thing that makes sense for us.

1023
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,720
Speaker 4: I mean, and then it creates an interesting dynamic between

1024
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 4: the people you grew up with. Yeah, it's hard, it

1025
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 4: can get very difficult.

1026
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 2: Very difficult.

1027
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:48,760
Speaker 4: But I think, I mean, I both of my parents

1028
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 4: are not voting for Donald Trump, which I mean to

1029
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:53,880
Speaker 4: me is just like I never would have thought this,

1030
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 4: but like it's just got He's so horrible. Yeah, he's

1031
00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,200
Speaker 4: so horrible. It's hard not to watching The of Eight

1032
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 4: the other nights, like I can't believe someone's looking at

1033
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:03,640
Speaker 4: this guy and be like that's that.

1034
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 5: Yes, insane person, insane. And it's also the same people

1035
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 5: that were saying that Joe Biden was rambling and not

1036
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 5: making sense, right.

1037
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 4: The con man Right. Yeah, everyone registered to vote?

1038
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:18,919

1039
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:21,000
Speaker 5: For God's sake, Let's see if we get more people

1040
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:22,920
Speaker 5: in Taylor Swift registered to vote with this podcast.

1041
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 4: This podcast is i would say, probably twenty five percent

1042
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 4: more powerful than Taylor's.

1043
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 3: Oh.

1044
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 2: Absolutely, no one's reading her gifts.

1045
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,360
Speaker 4: I'm selling out arenas, bigger arenas than Where are you

1046
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 4: doing your live show in Brooklyn at the Bellhouse? At

1047
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:41,040
Speaker 4: the beautiful Bellhouse. Right, That's another thing I miss about

1048
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 4: Kimmel is when we would go to Brooklyn.

1049
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 2: I love that.

1050
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 4: It's such a fun time. Yeah, I'm looking forward to that.

1051
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 4: We all are, we all are, we are. I can't

1052
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 4: believe I have this. I mean, I'm going to look

1053
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 4: and see if there's anything else I can say.

1054
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 2: There are usable things in there.

1055
00:44:56,760 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 5: There are very great your observational humor, the very very

1056
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 5: Bridger comedy.

1057
00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:07,439
Speaker 2: It's so unique, there really is. You don't realize maybe

1058
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 2: I hope you do.

1059
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,720
Speaker 5: I hope you realize how rare your voice is, because

1060
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,839
Speaker 5: it's it's very sweet, just a bright light.

1061
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,160
Speaker 4: I love it. I mean, I'm just looking at this

1062
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 4: and this is just, I mean simply the most mortifying

1063
00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 4: thing that could have possibly ever read.

1064
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:22,239
Speaker 2: Your Game of Thrones bit.

1065
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:22,840
Speaker 3: I like that.

1066
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 5: There's a bit yeah, the first page so for those

1067
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 5: still listening late night packets to traditionally have a couple

1068
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,480
Speaker 5: of pages of topical jokes and a couple of pages

1069
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 5: of bit ideas, and Bridger did a very good.

1070
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 2: Job with both.

1071
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 5: And there's a game throw I don't think we ever

1072
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 5: actually used any of these bits. But the Game of

1073
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 5: Thrones bit makes me laugh.

1074
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 4: I'm not reading this, Yes you are, There's no way.

1075
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:51,400
Speaker 5: It's so wonderfully dumb and wonderful.

1076
00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:55,799
Speaker 4: I love it. Okay, it says so, it says Game

1077
00:45:55,840 --> 00:46:00,800
Speaker 4: of Thrones recaf and again, any potential future employers this

1078
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 4: was written over ten years ago.

1079
00:46:03,840 --> 00:46:08,200
Speaker 2: Also, he has good organizational skills in the office, it says.

1080
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,840
Speaker 4: Game of Thrones recap. Jimmy explains that Game of Thrones

1081
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,319
Speaker 4: has a complicated plot and again this again was when

1082
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:15,839
Speaker 4: Game of Thrones was a topical thing. Yes, of course,

1083
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:19,400
Speaker 4: before it was run into the ground. Peak Jimmy explains

1084
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 4: that Game of Thrones has a complicated plot, so it

1085
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:24,239
Speaker 4: helps to have a refresher of what happened in each

1086
00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:27,280
Speaker 4: week's episode. He then introduces a clip, a dramatic sequence

1087
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,920
Speaker 4: similar to the show's opening credits, which, after ten to

1088
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 4: fifteen seconds of build up, cuts to a simple title

1089
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:35,400
Speaker 4: card that just reads, something happened to someone with a beard. So,

1090
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 4: I mean, if I were if I were running a

1091
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:42,200
Speaker 4: late night show, if I were the host of a

1092
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,040
Speaker 4: late night show, it would be canceled after ten minutes,

1093
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 4: simple like this is the most irritating show.

1094
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:50,360
Speaker 2: No, nope, it's original, it's unique, it's so you and.

1095
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 4: I love it. There was one point where I was like,

1096
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 4: I can't believe Jimmy hasn't fired me, because.

1097
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 2: I everyone feels that way every day.

1098
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,279
Speaker 4: There was one bit it was around Easter. I mean

1099
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 4: like I would obvious. They do try to do things

1100
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:03,279
Speaker 4: that were according to the show. But then every once

1101
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:04,680
Speaker 4: a on like, I'm just going to do one for me,

1102
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,440
Speaker 4: and I pitched we just do a straightforward commercial for bonnets.

1103
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:10,680
Speaker 4: There was no other angle other that it would just

1104
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:14,480
Speaker 4: be like, literally a commercial for bonnets. I'm like, he's

1105
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 4: going to just walk into the office and ask me

1106
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:17,000
Speaker 4: to leave.

1107
00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 2: Did we put it on the air?

1108
00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:23,920
Speaker 4: Absolutely not, Okay, I remember, like, what is he talking about?

1109
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:24,839
Speaker 2: I love it, though.

1110
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:27,640
Speaker 5: You need that because I think people get comfortable and

1111
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,000
Speaker 5: obviously the goal in a late night show is to

1112
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:31,799
Speaker 5: write for the host and the voice of the show,

1113
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 5: but it also gets irritating and everyone keeps pitching the

1114
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,319
Speaker 5: same stuff and you want new ideas. So you need

1115
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,440
Speaker 5: that bonnet commercial every now and then.

1116
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,680
Speaker 2: You just got to change it up. I love it.

1117
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,120
Speaker 4: I will say my favorite. One of the high points

1118
00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 4: of that show that I feel like was a nice

1119
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 4: mix of everything that I was so happy to do,

1120
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:50,839
Speaker 4: was I pitched there was some sort of wind storm

1121
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 4: or something in LA that was really horrible, and I

1122
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 4: pitched that a traveling wind chime. Salesman interrupts Jimmy during

1123
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 4: the monologue. Oh that's good, and we got to do

1124
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,719
Speaker 4: it with Fred Willard, Oh god, the best who I'm rip,

1125
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:06,800
Speaker 4: one of the all time best people, and that like

1126
00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 4: to me, it was like, oh, I got basically got

1127
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,239
Speaker 4: to do exactly the sort of thing I would want

1128
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 4: to do with one of my all time favorite actors.

1129
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 2: Not the best feeling.

1130
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:18,239
Speaker 4: Oh it feels so good. It's so good, Jimmy. I mean,

1131
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:20,760
Speaker 4: the show is like one of the few places anymore,

1132
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:22,880
Speaker 4: I think, because Jimmy loves lettermans so much, where you

1133
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 4: still got to do weird little things like that. This

1134
00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 4: is the audience is probably baffled.

1135
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, there's definitely things we do for ourselves on

1136
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:33,960
Speaker 5: that show, but we love it. It's fun to do

1137
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 5: that type of thing. It feels really good to write

1138
00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:38,920
Speaker 5: something you're proud of and then see it on You know,

1139
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 5: it's such a fast paced thing too. You're in seven

1140
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,920
Speaker 5: o'clock in the morning, you're in your pajamas, you're stressed out,

1141
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,840
Speaker 5: you're looking at a blank page and you're just a

1142
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,320
Speaker 5: government dream where you didn't graduate college or whatever, and

1143
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:52,319
Speaker 5: you are just freaked out.

1144
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,399
Speaker 2: You don't have anything. Some days you really don't.

1145
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 4: Some days you do.

1146
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,000
Speaker 2: Oh and then like by dinner time, you're watching something

1147
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:00,880
Speaker 2: that you thought of in the morning.

1148
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,319
Speaker 4: Right with like a celebrity or something where it's just like, oh,

1149
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 4: there's something in no way I could have done this

1150
00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:06,560
Speaker 4: as a person alone.

1151
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,279
Speaker 2: Right, It's crazy. This great team people around.

1152
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:13,160
Speaker 4: Multiple industry professionals had to deal with whatever stupid thought.

1153
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,319
Speaker 2: There's someone getting that bonnet or whatever that you need. Yeah,

1154
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 2: it's wonderful. I love it.

1155
00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:23,840
Speaker 4: Well, I think I'm sure the listener is furious that

1156
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:26,800
Speaker 4: I'm not getting more into this, but I'm simply literally

1157
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:29,000
Speaker 4: could not be more mortified. I mean, the fact that

1158
00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:31,839
Speaker 4: you have access to an electronic copy of this makes

1159
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:33,719
Speaker 4: me so I'm going to hack and I'm going to

1160
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:37,280
Speaker 4: use my online resources to get into your email.

Speaker 2: Happy to be a guest here. That brought you the

1168
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 2: worst gift, because I think I.

Speaker 4: Might have There's no way that there could be a

1170
00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:57,440
Speaker 4: worse gift than this.

1171
00:49:57,600 --> 00:49:58,479
Speaker 2: No no chance.

1172
00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 5: There's no gift that I'll give you the visceral reaction

1173
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:03,879
Speaker 5: and just the wash of sweat that came over your.

1174
00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:05,320
Speaker 4: Back, unless some one brings me the head of a

1175
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:06,280
Speaker 4: family member.

Speaker 4: I would like to say, I think it probably in

1184
00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 4: the end was the online resources. Yeah, definitely, that was

1185
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:34,879
Speaker 4: the clincher for the show.

1186
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:35,680
Speaker 2: Absolutely.

1187
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,160

00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 2: terrible idea.

00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 5: I just need to get to the results. But it's

Speaker 5: Yeah.

1241
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:50,000
Speaker 2: That worked out great.

1242
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,840
Speaker 4: That was one of my favorite periods of pop culture history.

1243
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 4: Tom had braces.

1244
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:55,200
Speaker 2: That was wonderful.

1251
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:07,080
Speaker 4: right or wrong because there are correct answers. Oh you

1252
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:10,200
Speaker 4: can fail big times. Okay, oh gosh, okay. Number one

1253
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 4: This is from a listener named Emily. Gift or a curse.

1254
00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:17,960
Speaker 4: Someone compliments your outfit and then they say it looks comfortable.

1255
00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:24,000
Speaker 5: Oh gosh, you know, Molly in her thirties would have

1256
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:26,680
Speaker 5: said that that's a curse. Molly in her forties says,

1257
00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:30,719
Speaker 5: that's a gift because you've complimented me. I look good,

1258
00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,239
Speaker 5: and you're also telling me I look comfortable, which I

1259
00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:36,000
Speaker 5: think is the ultimate goal. I'm not afraid of that anymore.

1260
00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,800
Speaker 5: I used to wear really uncomfortable shoes, high heels.

1261
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,600
Speaker 2: Forget it. No, COVID changed everything. Comfort is a compliment,

1262
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:44,160
Speaker 2: and I'm taking it. It's a gift.

1263
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:49,239
Speaker 4: Absolutely, it's a gift we have. I'm sorry, but we've

1264
00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:53,279
Speaker 4: reached a point in history when we went through normcore

1265
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,840
Speaker 4: for the from twenty twelve to twenty seventeen, and that

1266
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 4: really broke down some walls for everyone to just be

1267
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:02,320
Speaker 4: comfortable at all times. And when you get the compliment,

1268
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,279
Speaker 4: everyone just wants to look comfortable. I mean, we're all

1269
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 4: just looking comfortable. I mean the I think it all

1270
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:09,839
Speaker 4: started kind of the airport with people wearing pajama pants. Yes,

1271
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:12,879
Speaker 4: and then that kind of bled into reality and being

1272
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:14,759
Speaker 4: comfortable is a good thing.

1273
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, to be comfortable and like, oh, I like the

1274
00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:17,719
Speaker 2: way you look.

1275
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:19,160
Speaker 4: That's that's a dream.

1276
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:19,880
Speaker 2: That's a dream.

1277
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,279
Speaker 4: Unless it's someone who's a known enemy and you know

1278
00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:24,680
Speaker 4: that they're trying to undercut you.

1279
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, unless you're the Oscars.

1280
00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,440
Speaker 5: Someone says you look good and comfortable at like a

1281
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 5: black tie thing, maybe it's an insult, but other than that,

1282
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:32,920
Speaker 5: day to day, I'll take it.

1283
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 4: Definitely a gift. Okay, very nicely played. Number two. This

1284
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:38,879
Speaker 4: is from a listener named Peter. Gift or a curse

1285
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:40,800
Speaker 4: calling presents prezzies.

1286
00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:44,279
Speaker 2: Oh, curse, screw. You don't want any part of it.

1287
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:48,479
Speaker 5: Don't call blueberries bloobs, don't call prezzies presents prezies. Don't

1288
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 5: call sandwiches sandos, hate all of it, don't get cute,

1289
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 5: just call it. You didn't even save yourself a syllable present, Prezzy.

1290
00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:01,839
Speaker 5: It's no, no, no, goddamn curse. And I will die

1291
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:02,600
Speaker 5: on that hill.

1292
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:09,759
Speaker 4: Oh unfortunately, Molly, that is a gift. No Prezzi's. First

1293
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,120
Speaker 4: of all, I've never heard anybody say this before. This

1294
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,320
Speaker 4: is the first time it's really coming to my attention.

1295
00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 5: And you liked the way it sounded, You liked that

1296
00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:22,840
Speaker 5: that felt good inside when you heard prezies, you like

1297
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:25,960
Speaker 5: that makes that really Now I feel like my Prezie

1298
00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:26,799
Speaker 5: wasn't so bad.

1299
00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:28,800
Speaker 2: If that's if you think Prezzie.

1300
00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:30,960
Speaker 4: Is good, Prezie is neither. A. You're not supposed to

1301
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,520
Speaker 4: feel good or bad while saying it. I think that

1302
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:35,760
Speaker 4: it's supposed to just send a shock to the system,

1303
00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 4: uh huh, to you and everyone around you, and it

1304
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:43,080
Speaker 4: makes everyone feel a little more alive. When why is

1305
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 4: Molly calling presence prezzies? Is she okay? Nope?

1306
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:46,840
Speaker 3: No.

1307
00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 5: One time I brought a bottle of champagne over to

1308
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:51,440
Speaker 5: someone's house and I said thanks for the champs and

1309
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:53,160
Speaker 5: I almost just took it back.

1310
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 2: No, I don't like shortening words. It don't need to

1311
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:56,280
Speaker 2: be shortened.

1312
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 4: This all started with guawk, oh, fuck, walk, fuck.

1313
00:55:59,320 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 2: All of it.

1314
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:02,400
Speaker 5: No like any of excuse my language, don't know, I

1315
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 5: hate it all. Don't be cute, just use the word.

1316
00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:05,760
Speaker 2: It was made for a reason.

1317
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:07,920
Speaker 4: Sando's a tough one to swallow.

1318
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:11,040
Speaker 2: It's all hard, all of it. All of it's bad.

1319
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,160
Speaker 4: Pressies. No, well, unfortunately you do not get the point

1320
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:16,480
Speaker 4: because it's clearly a gift.

1321
00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:20,640
Speaker 5: Oh, I will I'm about to I'm gonna find that gun.

1322
00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 4: We were talking about Molly. We hate to see a

1323
00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:25,920
Speaker 4: sore loser, so let's try to turn things around here.

1324
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:28,399
Speaker 4: Number three, gift her a curse and this is from

1325
00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:30,799
Speaker 4: someone named Rebecca. And this is a long one gift

1326
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:33,240
Speaker 4: to a curse. When you and a stranger are walking

1327
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 4: in opposite directions and you try to dodge each other

1328
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,360
Speaker 4: but keep going to the same side. Then when you

1329
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:41,920
Speaker 4: eventually figure it out and are able to pass each other,

1330
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:43,920
Speaker 4: the stranger says, thanks for the dance.

1331
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:48,240
Speaker 2: That's hard.

1332
00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,360
Speaker 5: Gosh, you know, it kind of depends on how it's delivered.

1333
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:56,359
Speaker 5: And if you know what, tell you what, if it's

1334
00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,959
Speaker 5: someone over the age of fifty, it is a gift.

1335
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,759
Speaker 5: If oh, you know what, I'm gonna be really like

1336
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:05,160
Speaker 5: biased here because it's.

1337
00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 2: Like, gosh, I'm not I'm being ages with this.

1338
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:11,880
Speaker 5: I you know what I'm gonna say, it's a gift.

1339
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 5: And I know it's the wrong answer, but that's silly

1340
00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 5: that you're gonna call it the wrong answer because.

1341
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 2: You like Pruzzy. But I think it's a gift.

1342
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:21,520
Speaker 4: I'm not confident.

1343
00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:25,400
Speaker 2: It's more of a bresie. I don't know it's a gift.

1344
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:27,680
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say gift. No, God, I don't feel comfortable

1345
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 5: with it though. If someone said that, I think I

1346
00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:37,000
Speaker 5: not feel good. I'm really putting on a thought. I

1347
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:40,520
Speaker 5: respect this, Thanks for the dance. If it's an old

1348
00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:43,280
Speaker 5: man gift, anyone else, curse, but.

1349
00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:45,560
Speaker 4: You have to make it. You have to make a distinction.

1350
00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:47,560
Speaker 4: There's no two answer here.

1351
00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:54,320
Speaker 5: M hm. Against everything that my body is feeling. Am

1352
00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:55,840
Speaker 5: I trying to get it right? Or am I trying

1353
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:56,560
Speaker 5: to tell you what I think.

1354
00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:59,880
Speaker 4: You're trying to have the best day you possibly can.

1355
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,440
Speaker 5: Okay, If I'm gonna have the best day I can

1356
00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:05,480
Speaker 5: possibly can, I'm gonna try to stay positive because it's

1357
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 5: hard to be positive in this world.

1358
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:08,800
Speaker 2: So I'm going to say it's a gift, Thank you

1359
00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 2: so much. What a cute little joke you mane on

1360
00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:12,880
Speaker 2: the sidewalk. I don't like it.

1361
00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:17,160
Speaker 4: Gift Molly wrong, damn it, it's a curse you should have.

1362
00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 5: You're absolutely right, it's a curse, and I don't feel

1363
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:19,920
Speaker 5: good about myself.

1364
00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,040
Speaker 4: You've already taken up too much of my time on

1365
00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:24,400
Speaker 4: the sidewalk. Shut up and leave me alone. Totally.

1366
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:26,280
Speaker 5: I know, I totally agree with you, but it just

1367
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:28,720
Speaker 5: felt so negative, and after you're shitting on pressy, I

1368
00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:30,280
Speaker 5: felt like, oh, come on, Molly, have a.

1369
00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:31,120
Speaker 2: Little hope in the world.

1370
00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 4: Maybe instead of using your brain power to think of

1371
00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:35,560
Speaker 4: your little joke, you could have thought about getting out

1372
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:39,080
Speaker 4: of my way. Yes, totally, thanks for the dance.

1373
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:40,360
Speaker 2: I hate him.

1374
00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:44,240
Speaker 4: It's orderline sexual harassment. You're right. I don't want to

1375
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,800
Speaker 4: hear from you. You're annoying. We all know. It's a

1376
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:50,000
Speaker 4: frustrating experience. I'm flustered. I don't want to have to laugh.

1377
00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:52,280
Speaker 4: I don't want to have to wonder what's going on

1378
00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:55,800
Speaker 4: with you as a person. Leave me alone. No, thank you.

1379
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:59,080
Speaker 4: That's a curse. And unfortunately, Molly, you got one out

1380
00:58:59,120 --> 00:58:59,439
Speaker 4: of three.

1381
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 2: But if that person was wearing a T shirt that

1382
00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:06,400
Speaker 2: said the name of your.

1383
00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:09,400
Speaker 4: Podcast on it, it's what I would say, do not

1384
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:11,000
Speaker 4: tell anyone you listen to my podcast.

1385
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:11,840
Speaker 2: I said no gifts.

1386
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:14,120
Speaker 5: Now you'd be like, come on, if someone's wearing the

1387
00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:16,560
Speaker 5: I said no Gifts t shirt coming to you, you

1388
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:17,880
Speaker 5: would maybe like it.

1389
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:20,120
Speaker 4: A little more. I would say, take that shirt off.

1390
00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:24,200
Speaker 4: I don't want anything to do with you. You are

1391
00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:26,280
Speaker 4: sullying the name of my good podcast.

1392
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:28,360
Speaker 2: Great now it's a shirtless guy doing it. Just got

1393
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:29,080
Speaker 2: so much worse.

1394
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:32,240
Speaker 4: Great, find something else to listen to.

1395
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:34,520
Speaker 2: All right, you know what I like. I appreciate your conviction.

1396
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:35,760
Speaker 3: I like that.

1397
00:59:36,800 --> 00:59:41,160
Speaker 4: Well, uh, poor failure. I am poorly, poorly played, and we.

1398
00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:45,040
Speaker 2: Have poorly played. I brought a terrible gift. I failed.

1399
00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:45,640
Speaker 4: You know what?

1400
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:48,280
Speaker 5: This is why I keep having this nightmare that I

1401
00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 5: wake up unprepared for the test because of moments like these.

1402
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 4: You are going down in absolute flame. Okay, well, this

1403
00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 4: is the final segment of the podcast. It's called I

1404
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:02,280
Speaker 4: Said No Email. People write into I Said No gifts

1405
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:06,320
Speaker 4: at gmail dot com, and my listeners are desperate for answers.

1406
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,000
Speaker 4: They all have different problems in their lives. Will you

1407
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:09,959
Speaker 4: help me answer a question?

1408
01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:10,360
Speaker 2: Yes?

1409
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:14,120
Speaker 4: Okay, let me get into the doc here. Greeting's Bridger

1410
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:17,680
Speaker 4: and surprise guest. What a great episode so far. That's

1411
01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:20,840
Speaker 4: very nice of them to assume. Here's the problem I

1412
01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:25,040
Speaker 4: desperately need solved. My daughter is in first grade and

1413
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:27,120
Speaker 4: will be invited to a number of birthday parties this

1414
01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:29,600
Speaker 4: school year. I saw these keywords, I thought Molly could

1415
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 4: be a perfect person. Yes, because I certainly, well, actually

1416
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 4: I am. I'm good at answering every question. Are rather

1417
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:38,720
Speaker 4: than running multiple errands to pick up gifts for various

1418
01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:41,960
Speaker 4: seven year olds like we did throughout kindergarten, what are

1419
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,920
Speaker 4: some fun and useful gifts I could purchase multiples of

1420
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:48,640
Speaker 4: and have ready to go when another birthday party rolls

1421
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:49,960
Speaker 4: around with gratitude.

1422
01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 5: Andrea, Okay, Andrea, I love that you asked this. I

1423
01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:59,600
Speaker 5: this is my kind of go to for gifts for kids.

1424
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:03,800
Speaker 5: Are supplies, oh and books Okay, and you can buy

1425
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:06,520
Speaker 5: them buy the bulk. I also, if you really like

1426
01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:08,320
Speaker 5: a friend I like, and I got this. This is

1427
01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:10,120
Speaker 5: going to be the most obnoxious thing I've ever said.

1428
01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 5: I stole this idea from Oprah when we had our

1429
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:16,320
Speaker 5: first child, Oprah cent which is crazy. We got to

1430
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:19,920
Speaker 5: get from Oprah a giant basket of books. There were

1431
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 5: two hundred and fifty children's books in there. Oh my god,

1432
01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:26,040
Speaker 5: her favorite children's books. And then she went the extra

1433
01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:29,480
Speaker 5: step and put a sticker on each that said Jane's

1434
01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:29,880
Speaker 5: book Club.

1435
01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:32,840
Speaker 2: It looked like the Oprah's Book Club, but say Jane's

1436
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 2: Book Club. And so that's what I do now.

1437
01:01:36,320 --> 01:01:37,880
Speaker 5: But I only send like ten books. I don't send

1438
01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 5: to him for fifty but ten books like sending to

1439
01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:42,560
Speaker 5: me giving kids books like here are the ten books

1440
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:45,480
Speaker 5: my child and I enjoy, best gift, and you just

1441
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:48,640
Speaker 5: buy a bunch of them, have them in little stacks.

1442
01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:50,920
Speaker 5: Give books and art supplies. You know, my parents like

1443
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 5: art supplies because like they're disposable. They go and use

1444
01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:58,560
Speaker 5: them and then get out of them big plastic thing. Yeah, yeah,

1445
01:01:58,560 --> 01:01:59,760
Speaker 5: you're going to put that right in a shutter.

1446
01:01:59,920 --> 01:02:01,600
Speaker 4: I got you. I'm going to put this in the

1447
01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:03,440
Speaker 4: cannon and fire into the atmosphere.

1448
01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:05,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, and then this is going to be also an

1449
01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:08,040
Speaker 5: earnest answer. But I also like making a donation to

1450
01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:12,080
Speaker 5: Children's hospital when kids a birthday parties and go, hey,

1451
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,320
Speaker 5: little donation in your name to Children's hospital.

1452
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:15,600
Speaker 2: And here's a favorite book of ours.

1453
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:19,400
Speaker 4: That's a good gift. Children are not give it a

1454
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:20,160
Speaker 4: donation to us.

1455
01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:22,760
Speaker 2: Don't need anything else, mostly right, right.

1456
01:02:23,160 --> 01:02:26,720
Speaker 4: I mean, Andrea clearly doesn't care about her child's friends.

1457
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:31,320
Speaker 4: I think that that's pretty obvious. She or she got

1458
01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:33,800
Speaker 4: tired of them during kindergarten. One of them offended her,

1459
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:36,400
Speaker 4: and now she's got some sort of she's some problem

1460
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:38,920
Speaker 4: that she's out to solve. She doesn't want to get

1461
01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:41,240
Speaker 4: them anything good, she doesn't want to put any thought

1462
01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:44,560
Speaker 4: into it. My suggest suggestion is go to the bank

1463
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:48,960
Speaker 4: and get a bag of Nichols. Then you know, the

1464
01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:51,160
Speaker 4: birthday party, you just grab one out of the bag

1465
01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 4: in the car, and you're also set for meters, you know,

1466
01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:56,520
Speaker 4: so you can also use that when you're parking in

1467
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,920
Speaker 4: the city and you're now prepared for both children's birthdays

1468
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:00,680
Speaker 4: and parking.

1469
01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:05,600
Speaker 2: Yes, that's a terrible gift idea year old.

1470
01:03:06,480 --> 01:03:10,840
Speaker 5: Seven year olds don't want your filthy nickels, Okay, they'd

1471
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:12,880
Speaker 5: rather you give them like a pack of gum than

1472
01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:13,840
Speaker 5: a pack of nickels.

1473
01:03:14,480 --> 01:03:16,400
Speaker 4: Andrea is going to be the hit of the birthday

1474
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:18,840
Speaker 4: party circuit with her nickels. No, she's not gonna be

1475
01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:20,840
Speaker 4: worrying about the meter running out. She's going to come

1476
01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:23,240
Speaker 4: in with the single nickel or the child. I guess

1477
01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:25,280
Speaker 4: the child will be the person sent in with the nickel,

1478
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:26,600
Speaker 4: and they're going to make a lot of friends.

1479
01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 5: They're the nickel kid. That's gonna be their nickname now,

1480
01:03:31,280 --> 01:03:34,520
Speaker 5: because kids don't even work and change. They don't have change,

1481
01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:36,560
Speaker 5: they don't have a use for it. There's not like

1482
01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:39,920
Speaker 5: bubblegum machines. It's not like penny candy like our parents

1483
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:43,560
Speaker 5: talked about. They don't want your nickels, You filthy nickels.

1484
01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:44,680
Speaker 2: Don't bring anything.

1485
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:48,080
Speaker 4: Currency, don't bring.

1486
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:49,880
Speaker 2: Don't listen to bridge or under this guys.

1487
01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:52,320
Speaker 4: Come on, Andrea, go to the credit union, go to

1488
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:54,280
Speaker 4: your bank, whatever you wherever you need to go to

1489
01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:57,200
Speaker 4: the at well, actually ATMs should give nickels. That's a

1490
01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:59,400
Speaker 4: that's an idea for the banking industry. Look into it,

1491
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:03,720
Speaker 4: banking and street. Go to the bank or just scrounge

1492
01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:05,360
Speaker 4: around the house for a few nickels. You probably, I

1493
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:07,960
Speaker 4: can't imagine your kids got more than two friends. This

1494
01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:12,600
Speaker 4: family seems like losers. M get the nickels. Put them

1495
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:14,880
Speaker 4: in the glove compartment or that what's the middle thing

1496
01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:18,120
Speaker 4: in the car, the box that sits between the two seats,

1497
01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:20,760
Speaker 4: which we call that thing that you've lift up the console,

1498
01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:28,360
Speaker 4: the console, oh cle center, console, mini coffin, the guinea

1499
01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:31,000
Speaker 4: pig coffin in between the two seeds. That's now just

1500
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:34,440
Speaker 4: full of kind of loose change. And prepare for the

1501
01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:36,360
Speaker 4: family to be run out of town.

1502
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:42,400
Speaker 2: Happy birthday to you. What a nice gift.

1503
01:04:42,600 --> 01:04:46,200
Speaker 4: Everyone appreciates a single nickel, of course, Yeah, totally.

1504
01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:47,920
Speaker 2: I throw those away.

1505
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:52,040
Speaker 4: Must be nice, must be.

1506
01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:55,640
Speaker 2: I have no use for them.

1507
01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:01,480
Speaker 4: Okay, well, Andrea, you've gotten your answer from me. From me,

1508
01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 4: we'll probably have to beep out a lot of what

1509
01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:07,120
Speaker 4: Molly had to say. Her advice was borderline.

1510
01:05:08,920 --> 01:05:10,840
Speaker 2: We don't want too good of advice on this thing.

1511
01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:14,960
Speaker 4: But Andrew, do not write back in. I don't want

1512
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,680
Speaker 4: to hear anything else about this situation. It makes me sick.

1513
01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:22,560
Speaker 4: Oh gosh, Molly, Molly, Molly, Well, you've essentially I've been

1514
01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:26,080
Speaker 4: assaulted with a piece of history of mine which is

1515
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:27,560
Speaker 4: making me question everything.

1516
01:05:27,680 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 2: Don't you want to go back and rethink inviting me here?

1517
01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:35,120
Speaker 4: I want to rethink my career. I'm going to tell

1518
01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:37,360
Speaker 4: my agents and manager today that I'm leaving the business.

1519
01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:40,760
Speaker 4: I'm going to crawl back to overstock dot com and

1520
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:42,360
Speaker 4: tell them that I could have saved them from the

1521
01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:44,320
Speaker 4: bed bath and beyond disaster.

1522
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 5: It would be so fun if we could submit that

1523
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:48,920
Speaker 5: packet right now, under a different name to all the

1524
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:50,680
Speaker 5: late night shows and see if we get a bite.

1525
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:53,680
Speaker 2: I bet we could absolutely not.

1526
01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:57,880
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, someone would find out and I would become

1527
01:05:57,920 --> 01:05:59,440
Speaker 4: the laughing stock of the industry.

1528
01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:04,480
Speaker 2: Even more so, I am absolutely not. I stand by

1529
01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:05,000
Speaker 2: that packet.

1530
01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:08,200
Speaker 4: Well, I look, I do appreciate the shock to the system. Good.

1531
01:06:08,240 --> 01:06:09,040
Speaker 2: I'm glad you need it.

1532
01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:09,760
Speaker 4: Very alive.

1533
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:11,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like a cold plunch. I gave you a

1534
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:15,720
Speaker 5: cold plunch right here. The endorphins are going, and it does.

1535
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:16,040
Speaker 3: You know.

1536
01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 4: It's a nice look back to think at some point

1537
01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:22,280
Speaker 4: I could have. I mean, I almost completely ruined everything

1538
01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 4: for myself.

1539
01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:26,800
Speaker 2: You are ridiculous. That's a great packet.

1540
01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 4: Oh, oh my god, it's so now.

1541
01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:33,480
Speaker 2: I want you to write one now. My current day

1542
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:36,120
Speaker 2: isn't so terrible.

1543
01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:39,440
Speaker 4: It is a stressful experience. I feel bad.

1544
01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:41,360
Speaker 5: I have to read packets, you know, for my job,

1545
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:43,840
Speaker 5: and I always I always just feel bad reading them.

1546
01:06:44,040 --> 01:06:44,840
Speaker 2: Of course I do.

1547
01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:46,640
Speaker 5: I'm like, they put so much work into this, and

1548
01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:48,560
Speaker 5: when you don't like it, I was like, hold on,

1549
01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:50,560
Speaker 5: I'm gonna read it again. I try to read it

1550
01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:52,320
Speaker 5: again the next day. I'm like, maybe I was just

1551
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:54,400
Speaker 5: you know, I don't want to bring my own stuff

1552
01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:56,080
Speaker 5: on this. Let maybe I'm in a better mood I'm

1553
01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:56,760
Speaker 5: gonna read it now.

1554
01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:59,120
Speaker 2: Like, oh no, I still don't like it. Shoot, and

1555
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:01,520
Speaker 2: I feel bad. But there's a lot of good ones

1556
01:07:01,560 --> 01:07:01,960
Speaker 2: like that one.

1557
01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:05,400
Speaker 4: Oh, packets, packets, packets. I don't know. Well, thank you

1558
01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:08,400
Speaker 4: for bringing this here. You're welcome, and I'm so happy

1567
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:26,640
Speaker 2: how I met you. Now I can see it perfectly clear.

1568

Speaker 2: out our voting record online and see if that was the.

1574
01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:41,960
Speaker 4: Fact that my mom at the time didn't realize that

1575
01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 4: I was gay. There's a whole bunch of things happening.

1576
01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:46,160
Speaker 2: Wait, did your mom really make the costume?

1577
01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:46,840
Speaker 4: You made the costume?

1578
01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:47,320
Speaker 2: No, she did.

1579
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:50,439
Speaker 4: She's the best. That's amazing, it's incredible. She should start

1580
01:07:50,440 --> 01:07:53,240
Speaker 4: at Etsy store. Yes, she should strictly a Green Gables car.

1581

Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a really gorgeous costume.

1586
01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:02,080
Speaker 2: Where is it now?

1587
01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:05,520
Speaker 4: I think it's a my parents house. It must be,

1588
01:08:05,640 --> 01:08:08,120
Speaker 4: because yeah, moving back and forth, you know, you're like,

1589
01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:09,320
Speaker 4: I'm not moving anywhere.

1590
01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:13,200
Speaker 5: Halloween costumes refresh my memory. It was a costume made

1591
01:08:13,240 --> 01:08:13,880
Speaker 5: for that year.

1592
01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:15,360
Speaker 4: It was before that year.

1593
01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:17,840
Speaker 2: It wasn't like mom sent me the costume you made

1594
01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:18,639
Speaker 2: for me in eighth grade.

1595
01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:20,800
Speaker 4: No, she made it that year and mailed it to me.

1596
01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:23,280
Speaker 2: That sweet and that was a request by you. This

1597
01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:23,960
Speaker 2: is what I want.

1598
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:26,960
Speaker 4: Yes. The only thing I supplied was the wig, which

1599
01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:31,120
Speaker 4: was a I've never seen frozen actually, but the redheaded character,

1600
01:08:31,280 --> 01:08:36,160
Speaker 4: Oh yeah has pigtails, I guess right, yeah, Anna, yeah, Ana.

1601
01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:37,439
Speaker 4: So I went to the store and bought one of

1602
01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:39,840
Speaker 4: those and it worked well. I mean, that's a that's

1603
01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 4: a little life hack for the listener if they want

1604
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:44,120
Speaker 4: to be Anne of green Gables, get a frozen wing leg.

1605
01:08:44,320 --> 01:08:48,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's does she still like right now, if you

1606
01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:50,439
Speaker 5: said to your mom, can you make me a costume

1607
01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:51,000
Speaker 5: for Halloween?

1608
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:51,280
Speaker 2: Would she?

1609
01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:51,559
Speaker 3: Oh?

1610
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:52,280
Speaker 4: Absolutely.

1611
01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:54,679
Speaker 2: She's like sows and she sews.

1612
01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:57,559
Speaker 4: She watercolors. She made the poster for our live show

1613
01:08:58,240 --> 01:08:59,400
Speaker 4: I have right here. Do you want to look at this?

1614
01:08:59,520 --> 01:08:59,800
Speaker 4: Of course?

1615
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:00,360
Speaker 3: Sure.

1616
01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:02,240
Speaker 4: And this was a big ask for her because I said,

1617
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:04,439
Speaker 4: will you paint a picture of a rat holding a gun.

1618
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:08,599
Speaker 2: From your childhood memory of your up splinter?

1619
01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:11,519
Speaker 4: Oh that's great, and she was like, she was very

1620
01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:14,400
Speaker 4: nervous about the gun element. But I was able to

1621
01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:14,920
Speaker 4: convince her.

1622
01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:18,000
Speaker 2: And this is at this, Oh my god, that's adorable,

1623
01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:19,360
Speaker 2: really great.

1624
01:09:19,439 --> 01:09:20,400
Speaker 4: She was a very good artist.

1625
01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:22,759
Speaker 2: She's a really good artist. And who did that awesome font?

1626
01:09:23,160 --> 01:09:26,080
Speaker 4: I am the person behind the font? You are? I

1627
01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:28,240

Speaker 4: You can pick a great poster. Isn't that great?

1631
01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:35,680
Speaker 2: You need to have that hanging in this room.

1632
01:09:35,760 --> 01:09:37,200

1633
01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:40,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it. This was really nice.

1634
