1 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:22,279 Speaker 1: Okay, chall let's do it. Let's do it. Podcast starts. Now, 2 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: what's up everybody? You're listening to Stir Radio Lab. I 3 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: just had an instinct to say, um, was that. Wow? 4 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: You know where did that come from? I don't know. 5 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,840 Speaker 1: I think you're really letting your hair down. Sometimes sometimes 6 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: your past trauma comes out when you least was up 7 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: to me felt it with no P at the end. 8 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 1: Oh no, P. Yeah, that's to me, that's what it is. 9 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I I just thought it was sort of 10 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: the lengthening of the I mean, it is a lengthening. 11 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: But to me, if I were to spell it, it it 12 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: would be was that I would probably I would put 13 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: I would slave you, you would put it, well, you 14 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: don't trust the other person to understand what you're saying, 15 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 1: whereas I have faith in my listeners and readers. No, 16 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 1: you're totally right. But that was that area of life 17 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: where you know, one was young enough that I felt 18 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: like it was there was I always felt like there 19 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: was more to that joke than like reference to the commercial. Wait, 20 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: it's a reference for commercial, Yeah, the Budweiser commercial. It 21 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 1: made it so it's so ingrained in the culture that 22 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: I that I didn't. I guess now that you say that, 23 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: it makes sense, but like, that's not I just associated 24 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: with like the broadly speaking, the like Will Ferrell esque 25 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,839 Speaker 1: humor of like that era and not not no offensive 26 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: Will Ferrell, who I think is a brilliant comedian and 27 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: and a patron of this podcast. Yeah, a shadow funder. 28 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: Yeah wait speaking of podcasts, Sorry if this is boring, 29 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: but okay, and speaking of podcast and Will Ferrell, you 30 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: know he has that new Apple choke all the Shrink 31 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: next Door. Okay, So I didn't know anything about it, 32 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: but apparently it's based on a podcast, and I started 33 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: listening to the podcast, and do you know about this story? 34 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: Not at all. It's like a psychiatrist who basically is 35 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: like a sociopath and starts like gets close to his patients, 36 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: then makes then convinces them that they should like cut 37 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: ties with various family members because they're toxic, and then 38 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: ends up being like the one person in their lives 39 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 1: and like completely takes over their lives. And when the 40 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: patients are rich, he also like the whole thing with 41 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,839 Speaker 1: the main character, like the Will Ferrell character, is that 42 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,399 Speaker 1: the psychiatrist basically like by the end of their time 43 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: together is like in his will as his primary like 44 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 1: as a person that's going to get all his money, 45 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: and the patient is like really like has a lot 46 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: of like family wealth, but it's like, you know, very 47 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 1: you know, it was like looking you know, it's like 48 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: going through hard time and like very vulnerable. And so 49 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 1: he basically made him like cut ties to everyone in 50 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: his family and then made him his like basically like 51 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: business associate with the plan to like take over his 52 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: millions of dollars. And then he did that to like 53 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 1: many other people. Isn't that crazy? That's crazy. I'm more impressed. Okay, one, 54 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: I'm impressed. The first of all, I was like, wait, Georgie, 55 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: are you just plugging a show? I know, I'm sorry 56 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,119 Speaker 1: I was too far in it. I like started talking 57 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: about it, and then I was like, wait, I guess 58 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: now we're just doing slight culture gap fest. Yeah. And 59 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: it's also like to plug something that I have not seen, 60 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: not listen to. I was sort of like, well, here 61 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: we go. I argue that plugging something you haven't seen 62 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: or listened to like makes sense because I'm like recommending 63 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: it to you. Okay, sure, maybe in a shout out 64 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: sort of I'm sorry. That was like, probably the worst 65 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: thing I've ever done is describing the podcast the drink 66 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: next door on this podcast. Well, I'm but okay, what 67 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: makes What piqued my interest about that the story too, 68 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: was like your willingness to pick up something new. I 69 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: feel like when someone's like, oh, this show is based 70 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: on a podcast, I'm never like, got I gotta check 71 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: out that podcast. I'm like, okay, so it's already done, already, 72 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: like mind it for everything it's worth, and now popped 73 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: on it would be pointless. But you said, hey, that 74 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: sounds interesting, maybe I'll listen to it. Right Well, so 75 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: I felt like I don't have room in my life 76 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: for a television show right now, like especially an Apple 77 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: TV when I'm just not gonna. I'm not gonna. I'm 78 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: not gonna put in the work to to welcome that 79 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: into my life. That's simply and I don't have the energy, 80 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: the capacity, or frankly the you know, empathy for the 81 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: people involved to do that. And so, but you know 82 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: what I can do is while I'm doing my dishes, 83 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: while I'm cleaning, listen to a sixth episode narrative podcast. Wow. 84 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 1: And so I listened yesterday to five episodes in a row, 85 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: and you loved it. I loved it. I'm I'm honestly shocked. 86 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: I'm impressed. I think people get the wrong impression about 87 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: us sometimes. I think they think that we're like really cynical, 88 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: maybe even like I just hate on off too critical. 89 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 1: And here you are saying, Yeah, I picked up a 90 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: podcast that is the source material for an Apple TV 91 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: show and guess what I loved it? Yeah, well I 92 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 1: had it. I listened. I heard about it on this 93 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: late Culture Gap because they were discussing the television show 94 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: UM and they mentioned that it was based on a podcast. Wow, 95 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: this is amazing. I love this. You know what, can 96 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 1: I tell you something? Yeah? I looked at the description 97 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: for that episode of the Culture Gap Fest saw that 98 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: they were talking about three things that I did not 99 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: know about already, and I was like, well, I don't 100 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: want to listen to this because none of these I 101 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 1: can't put my opinion in their opinions. I don't want 102 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: to live their defense. One of the things was literally 103 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: the concept of sexiest man alive, which I do think 104 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: you know about. That is true. I do know about that. 105 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: But that being said, it didn't feel like it could 106 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: be a juicy conversation. That is where I turned it off. 107 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: Like I listened to the first two topics, and then 108 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: when they started talking about sexiest man Alive, I was like, 109 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: I'm not doing this with a few people like I like, 110 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: I have honestly too much respect for the host of 111 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: this late culture gap fest who have raised me to 112 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: to like sit through them talking about sexiest man alive 113 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: like they're better than that. They're better than that. I truly, 114 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: I mean when they I was genuinely surprised. I was like, 115 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,679 Speaker 1: there's roughly one billion TV shows happening at all times, 116 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 1: and you're talking about the sexiest mean alive that we 117 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: know is not real, Like this is insane. Well, there 118 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:36,919 Speaker 1: at the moment where I turned it off, when um, 119 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: they started talking about how like multiple men have been 120 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: the sexiest man alive multiple times, and then they were 121 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: kind of like, well, it shows such a lack of imagination. 122 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: I mean, there are so many men not not to 123 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: even get into the inclusion and diversity element. And I 124 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 1: was like, no, I'm not doing it like that is 125 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: not I am not like engaging at this level with 126 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: people's sexiest alive. I refuse that's amazing. Um I I 127 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: think we this is a beautiful little thing that we're 128 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: doing right now too, because to be talking about a 129 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: podcast that talked about people's sex These Men Alive, that's 130 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: kind of dark, and not just be talking about a 131 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: podcast that talked about a podcast that I then listen to. 132 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: I mean this, this show Stradio Lab has always been 133 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: about podcasting. It has been about the podcast landscape and 134 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: has been unpacking what a podcast is. And this is 135 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: a good this is a good step for us. It's good, 136 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: it's good, and we actually have kind of fallen off 137 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: of the the element of the podcast that is like 138 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: kind of distilling podcasting down to its basic bits. And 139 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: I'm kind of thinking like this is a way It's like, 140 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: what is podcasting if not hear me out, what is 141 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: podcasting if not podcasting? Like it doesn't exist outside of podcasting. 142 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: So like it's actually in this heard of the podcast 143 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: if we only talked about other podcasts, because it's because 144 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: it's like a self feeding beast. Wait, the big point, 145 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: the big selling point, the point that will be on 146 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: the poster board is what is podcasting if not if 147 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: not podcasting? I mean, I guess like technically can't argue 148 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: with that. To me, it's like it feels a little 149 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: postmodern or something. It's like it's very sent up a 150 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: zoom peep what is that? You know that thing that 151 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: says like this is not a pipe. Oh, sure, sure 152 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: it's that. But but instead of this is not a pipe, 153 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 1: it's this pipe is a pipe, which is actually a 154 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: level past this is not a pipe. Oh my god, 155 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 1: I'm getting I'm getting very like um sort of pitch 156 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 1: meeting Madman feelings from this conversation. Like you are at 157 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: my Heart Radio and you are walking into the offices 158 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: and you're pulling up a poster board and you're like 159 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: you flip it over dramatically like you're going to reveal something, 160 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: and it just says podcast. Yeah, well but do you 161 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 1: see what I'm saying. It's like it's like it's the 162 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: point of a podcast is just for it to exist 163 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: in this in this stage of podcasting where basically like 164 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: there's so much money funneled into it and no one 165 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: actually cares. Like people are making literally like narrative like 166 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,200 Speaker 1: like political thriller podcast. No one's gonna listen to that. 167 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: They're all starring like Cynthia Nixon and and like, no 168 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: one cares. It's just like people are doing it for 169 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: the sake of doing it. It's kind of like you 170 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:43,719 Speaker 1: have to keep running on the treadmill. Yeah, okay, this 171 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: is good. Celebrities on narrative podcasts, I don't care. I 172 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 1: don't care. It needs to stop. And they're like, oh, 173 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: look at this roster of like huge people we have, 174 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: and I'm like, if I don't see them, I don't care. Okay, counterpoint, 175 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: Actually no, I don't of a counterpart, because my counterpart 176 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: was gonna be I was gonna pretend I like it 177 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: when celebrities read audio books. But guess what, I've literally 178 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: never listened to one. I always like in theory, I'm like, yeah, 179 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: one day, like in theory, yes, like get me Helen 180 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: Mirren to read like Remains of the Day. But like, 181 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 1: am I going to press play on that? Not? Cannot 182 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: imagine a point in my life. I can't imagine the 183 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 1: disease I would have to have in order to press 184 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,199 Speaker 1: play on that. I would have to be suffering from 185 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 1: consumption and in bed sick with my medieval nurse. Yeah, 186 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: it would way back. My medieval nurse would have to 187 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: be like I brought you an audio book. Wow, damn, 188 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: I think we actually kind of got to the bottom 189 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, we did, and I didn't even bring 190 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 1: up the topic I was going to bring up. And 191 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 1: here's the thing I wasn't before we started recording to 192 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 1: bring it up. No, no, no, that's not what it was. 193 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: You told me I have something I'm going to bring up, 194 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: and I said, okay, because here's what I felt. I 195 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: felt like once we were actually in that intro, all 196 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: bets are off and it is so hard you can't 197 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: you have to ride the wave. I harness the wave, 198 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: you know, I know, I know, I know, blue crush 199 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: over and I really feel like you were it was 200 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: a pipe dream to even you know what I'm gonna 201 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,559 Speaker 1: do Now, I'm gonna do something like literally the most 202 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: genius thing I've ever done that, which is I'm going 203 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: to in fact talk about what we were talking about, 204 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 1: the concept of having a plan to talk about something 205 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: and in doing so still reach the goal that I 206 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: wanted to reach. Okay, So what I said to you was, 207 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: I have an idea for a topic that will also 208 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: help us organically plug the Patreon And then I kind 209 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: of felt you rolling your eyes a little bit like, Okay, 210 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: it seems a little forced. And guess what I'm doing now. 211 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 1: I'm literally telling that story and in doing so, mentioning 212 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: the Patreon without even having to bring up that topic, 213 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: which I think is genius obviously, and I think would 214 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 1: have This is kind of how I saw it going, Like, 215 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: you're right, there is a world. Obviously, when it's in 216 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: the back of your head, you're going to bring up 217 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: the Patreon at some point. It's just about having it 218 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: happened naturally, right, But but what I was afraid of 219 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: is like it not happening naturally, and then me realizing it, 220 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: realizing it at the end of the intro, and then 221 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 1: suddenly out of a nowhere being like, oh so the Patreon. 222 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 1: So that's why in my mind I was like, I 223 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: have to have something in you know, locked and loaded, 224 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 1: so that when it's time I can I can enter it. 225 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: But now the topic I was going to bring up 226 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: in order to segue into the podcast will never be 227 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: brought up, and it will kind of be the elephant 228 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: in the room of this whole episode. I would love 229 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 1: to know what it was, though, well should I. Britney 230 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 1: says me too, Okay. What I want was gonna bring 231 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: up is that I think Adam Driver hates Lady Gaga. 232 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: This is such a good topic, I know, and it 233 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 1: was and and I was trying to like imply that 234 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: maybe our next UM Straight Lab Movie Club, which is 235 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: the special Patreon UM episode that's released every month we're 236 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: talking about a movie is probably gonna be House with Gucci. Yeah, 237 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: it's gonna be House of Gucci. UM and our first one, 238 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: I should say it was a pronouncy check in Larry, 239 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: which I have to say. The reviews off the charts. 240 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: I think it's one of our best episodes we've ever recorded. 241 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: I actually think it was genius. I think we yeah, okay, yeah, 242 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 1: this is all we can't we can't get and can't 243 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: we can't keep, we can't get into it. The point 244 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: is I think Adam Driver hates Lady Gaga. I believe you. 245 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: He doesn't seem thrilled in a cycle. He's like he's 246 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: just like he doesn't get like what this. First of all, 247 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: can I just say something. He does not look like 248 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: he's doing a good job in the trailer. I'm like 249 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: willing to go there with him, but like he does 250 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: not of all the people. He looks the least Italian. 251 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,439 Speaker 1: His name is Adam Driver. He was like in the Marines. 252 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: He also just like is like straight, like he's straight. 253 00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: That's like he's straight and very like toxic actor. Like, Yeah, 254 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: he seems to me this is the worst instant, like 255 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: in a hurl at someone. He seems to me humorless. 256 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: Do you agree, Yeah, I do agree. I agree. He 257 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 1: takes himself real seriously he does. Um and and you 258 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: know who else does Lady Gaga, but in a very 259 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: different way, in a dumb way, in a fun way. Yeah, 260 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: she's over. She's like doing Adam Driver dragged like she's 261 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: pretending to be that serious. Like wait, wait, I want 262 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: to hear our guest opinion on this cruel that we 263 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: are it is. It is actually mean and and and 264 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: it's gaslighting that we haven't brought her in yet. Um, 265 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: that's definitely gatekeeping. It's gatekeeping. I mean in a literal sense, 266 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: it is gatekeeping because we're silencing her and not letting 267 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: her be part of the my Um well, I say, sure, 268 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: why the hell not, let's bring in our guests please 269 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: of a glamour girl, hohody, who for Brittany Carney. Hello, um, 270 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: thank if for having me. Do you think about a 271 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: Driver hating Lady Gaga? I'm so ready because actually, honestly, 272 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 1: I have a lot of follow up thoughts and comments 273 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: on that whole, like truly metaphysical journey to get there, 274 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: you know, like there's a lot of like fourth wall 275 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: is broken anyway. But then instantly when you said that, 276 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: what I was thinking of is something that you're speaking to, 277 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 1: which is like, esthetically Adam Driver, It's like, oh, I 278 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: can't deal with someone who takes themselves seriously or like 279 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: who is a lot? But he's like a lot, even 280 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: though he thinks he's quietly a lot, right, And I 281 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: think that I'm sure he's like cynical about whatever Lady 282 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: Gaga represents, right, Like he thinks he's too cool for that. 283 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 1: But then they're in is like just there's something parallel 284 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: about what they're doing, going in different directions. I would 285 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: even say, not to be too reductive, but to me, 286 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: it's like Adam Driver is a lot in a man 287 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: way and Lady Gaga is a lot in a woman way, 288 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 1: and he's a misogronist. Yeah, WHOA. It's like if there's 289 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: I don't know anyone else, though I don't know, like 290 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: I'm going to put them on different ends of a spectrum, 291 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: but I don't know who any like who else would 292 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: be in between, but probably if we thought about it, 293 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: there would be people. But I feel like each of 294 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: them are on an end of a spectrum. Yeah, but 295 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: here's the thing, They're both in the same film. So 296 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: the idea he's like, he needs to let go of 297 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: this idea that he's better than her because ultimately, like 298 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: she's the one playing Patrizia and he's the one playing 299 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 1: you know, and I watched the trailer, he does seem 300 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: sort of like joyless. But also I feel like he 301 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: does bring that to so many characters. Who is he 302 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 1: playing in the movie? Like what's his I think his 303 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 1: her husband? Is he? Yeah, he's a head because there's 304 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: that point where she points to her wedding ring and 305 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: she's like our company, sweetie, I am family too. Um. 306 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: But yeah, and also be clear, I think he's a 307 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: terrific actor. Like I would never say he's a bad actor. 308 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 1: I just am annoyed it. I just am I wouldn't 309 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: even say I know what I would say. I'm amused 310 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 1: by the fact that he clearly hates Like I think 311 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 1: that's so true, especially when you compare like to like 312 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: the Bradley Cooper press cycle where he was like so 313 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: down to play the games and I'm like so over 314 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: Breadley grouper, Like I swear to God like that, I'll 315 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: say this about this press cycle. I am enjoying House 316 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: of Gucci press so much more than Stars Like I 317 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: haven't seen the movie yet, but like it is giving 318 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: everything I wanted. Like it's like I don't know that 319 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,439 Speaker 1: there's something that seems so much more authentic and like 320 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 1: authentically crazy about it because it's like a crazy story 321 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,159 Speaker 1: about murder, Whereas the Stars Worn was so forced to me, 322 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: like it's like the fourth remake of this movie, and 323 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 1: Bradley Cooper is like literally has like an entire like 324 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: you know, pr team that's like trying to prop him 325 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: up as like a new director, Like it's just it's 326 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: too it was like too much for me. My hottest 327 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 1: take is that I've never seen Stars Born, but I 328 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: don't but I like get well, I get no, you 329 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 1: get it, you get it. I get it, like you know, 330 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 1: I read half Wikipedia and people talk about it like 331 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: I think I get the role in are like I 332 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,719 Speaker 1: but my point is that I the song. I just 333 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 1: don't really like the song at all, and people really 334 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 1: were like, oh the song, and generally I just don't 335 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: think it like like resonates in my ears as like 336 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: something rhythmic or soulful written. Me this this take is 337 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: too hot for me. I am. We were just sorry. 338 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I know that we are all traumatized from 339 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:04,399 Speaker 1: being alive in this, but having shallow to cling to 340 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,239 Speaker 1: was such a it was such a moment. It was 341 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: the like the fucking howling was like such a like 342 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: final culture moves forward. They're like, oh, I'm sorry, but 343 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,479 Speaker 1: literally the best, So Brittany, just to like fill you in, 344 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: Like Sam to me, we have a different approach when 345 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: it comes Lady Gaga. Like Sam shows his love by 346 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: being unequivocally supportive, and I show my love by respecting 347 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 1: her enough to be critical when she deserves. So you 348 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: guys are on the spectrum. We're like I'm driving. We're 349 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: definitely on the spectrum. I mean, but like, okay, like 350 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 1: three of you, okay, okay, okay, so wait, I have 351 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 1: a lot of I have several questions. My first question 352 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: is Sam, oh you like the hell the what did 353 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 1: you say that howling? Like the hallowing the whole she's 354 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 1: hollow howling, hollering, hooting and hollering. I love that you've 355 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: been able to so you're so like, um, you've been 356 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: so good about like intellectually responding to everything, and the 357 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 1: one thing that threw off is the pronunciation of howling. 358 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:22,719 Speaker 1: Holy Um. Okay, wait, so the thing is like I 359 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 1: feel sort of gaslight by the world because of that song. 360 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 1: I understand. Actually I don't. I don't know if I agree, 361 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 1: but like, I understand why you would feel that way 362 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: because that we just shoved down your throat. We did 363 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: a full episode about that's kind of how we feel 364 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:36,919 Speaker 1: about Taylor Swiped, but we don't need to get back 365 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: into it. Wait a minute, yeah, wait, yes, I I 366 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: think my feeling about that song is how I feel 367 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,719 Speaker 1: about the Taylor Swift in gen role. But yes, but 368 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: we don't have to go down the tailors with no 369 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 1: but we can do shallow though, Like I understand what 370 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: you're saying. Like there was something about the stars Warm 371 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: press cycle where it was like you know that movie 372 00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 1: They Live where you put on the glasses and then 373 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: it's like you have to buy do you know what 374 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. No, but I think I get the premise. 375 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: It's kind of like there was like a classic movie 376 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 1: where like someone like sees the how all you know, 377 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: everything around him is like making him into a construction. 378 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, right, But there's like a famous scene where 379 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: he like puts on the glasses and he like looks 380 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 1: at an advertisement and it turns into just like a 381 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: sign that says like spend money now, Like you know, 382 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: it's like he's seeing like the soul of the world 383 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: or whatever. And I feel like there's a way to 384 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: like put on the they live glasses on with Stars 385 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: Born and look at it and it's just like this 386 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 1: is the movie you like now, Like there was just 387 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: something so intense about the way it was marketing. That's 388 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 1: really interesting because first of all, I think that they're 389 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: both separately like very talented. Everybody that was spoken about 390 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: so far so talented, yes, Brauer Adam Driver. But I 391 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: think and I feel like maybe somebody I'll watch it 392 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: on like you know what I mean, But I feel 393 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,159 Speaker 1: like I'm the plane on a plane exactly. That's a 394 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: beautiful plane watch. Somebody was just talking about like watching 395 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:07,959 Speaker 1: movies on airplane and why why is it always like 396 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: something really tragic? And I remember that the I was 397 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: on a flight. The only time that I've seen Moonlight 398 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 1: and the movie Senses was backed back on an airplane. 399 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 1: Oh my god. Yeah, it was like really a lot 400 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: You're like in the sky. But I think I'll just 401 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 1: listen to that song on loop on a jet Blue. 402 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 1: What do you think of like the dumber, Like did 403 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: you hear any of the like other tracks like because 404 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 1: today movie from the movie, Like I had like why 405 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: did you do that stuff? In my head today? And 406 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: those songs are great. So basically like she's a pop star, 407 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: and there are all these songs that are like they're 408 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 1: meant to convey that they're like bad pop songs and 409 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 1: that she's like lost the thread and is no longer authentic. 410 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm I'm obviously like a simple So there 411 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: are all these songs that are like like there's a 412 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: song called hair Body Face. Okay, okay, got it. So 413 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: that's like but so okay, so it feels so then 414 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: the idea is that wait, is the song the the 415 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: howling song. It's like that's the authentic one, that's like, 416 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: that's the real authentic, authentic. But I have a question, 417 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 1: so like when the song is is it just like 418 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 1: in the score or is it like, no, they sing 419 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: it right, they sing it together. Yeah, that's like when 420 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: they first when he first brings her on stage and 421 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: they sing that song and she, I think maybe improvises 422 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: her part. So that song in the movie is like, 423 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: this is authentic writing and talent and like chemistry between them. 424 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: But then the other songs that you're talking about are 425 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: like it's like now she's a pop star and she's 426 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: her authentic. But also, of course you can read the 427 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: movie in a different way where it's like if you're 428 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: reading it in like a camp way, then even the 429 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: authentic song is like a commentary on the idea of 430 00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: an authentic like country rocks. Honestly, I just want to 431 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: see the part where he pieced himself on stage, and 432 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: I've heard about it and I'm curious. I think you 433 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,640 Speaker 1: should see it. I think it would listen. I watched 434 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,239 Speaker 1: the movie twice, Like I'm not I'm not saying it's 435 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 1: a bad movie. I just I'm like, I was suffocated 436 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 1: by that press cycle. I forgot how this came up. Oh, also, 437 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: my relationships Lady Gaga. Is that in twenty twenty? When 438 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: did she tour? When it was like the woman that 439 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 1: like the milk woman who threw up colors? Wait have 440 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: you heard us talking about it? The milk Lady? I 441 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: don't know, but what what she there? Was like a year? 442 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: This is like is the vomit Artist?

Um wait, okay, not to restist, 657 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: but I want to get into the topic because I 658 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 1: feel like it's such a ridge topic. Okay? Is that okay? Sam? 659 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: I think that's beautiful. We're just okay, Brittany. I want 660 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 1: you to introduce your topic and then maybe say a 661 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 1: little bit about why you chose it and why it's straight. Sure, 662 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 1: So my topic is apples, the fruit apples. Apples are 663 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 1: straight to me because well, for a number of reasons, 664 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 1: there's something the most sort of like Mr Roll or 665 00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 1: like vague one is that there's something really normative about apples. 666 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: And then I was thinking about it more and I 667 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 1: was like everything that kind of surrounds apples, and like 668 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 1: apple dumb is just pretty like okay, for example, imagining 669 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 1: like a mom and a dad giving their kid apple 670 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,279 Speaker 1: slices and a zip block, Like that's really straight. And 671 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: then and apples are the center of that and like 672 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: or like going up state to an orchard or like 673 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 1: harvest or like autumn in general. Right, and then like 674 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 1: apple sauce, like a little mots packet um, there's like 675 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: a biblical element. Hadn't even though that's the first thing 676 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: I thought of you, right, Okay, And that's like maybe 677 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: the tenth thing, Like I was like, oh, yeah, that 678 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:47,879 Speaker 1: whole that whole bag. Yeah, And in maybe this will 679 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 1: come up later, like the inverses like, so what then 680 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 1: what apples what fruit are? Like oh okay, I'm gonna 681 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 1: get to that point later. My last point here is 682 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 1: like you know how like there's so many varieties of apples, 683 00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 1: Like I even in preparation was like like typed in 684 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 1: apples go. I love when of the guests researches and 685 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 1: the first thing that came up was like an Amazon 686 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 1: poster that said, like like a poster available at Amazon 687 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 1: dot com that was like Northeastern apple varieties, like apples 688 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 1: of like Northeastern America. And it's like there's there's like 689 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 1: thirty apples and so there's a bunch of variety right 690 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 1: like in like flesh texture and color and like the skin. 691 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 1: But the thing is like no one cares. It's all yes, yes, 692 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 1: this is like everything I wanted to say. You're saying yeah, okay, okay, 693 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:38,760 Speaker 1: So that's my Yeah, that's my like okay, yeah they're there. 694 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 1: That's my jumping off point. I've left the diving board. Yeah. 695 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 1: I think that's so genius. I think what really speaks 696 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: to me is calling an apple normative is so funny 697 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: because it just is it is it is the nuclear family, 698 00:39:56,160 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: it is school. I just this is like I'm like 699 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,320 Speaker 1: in cloud nine right now, I'm like leaving my body 700 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 1: because never before has a topic. The idea of that 701 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 1: apple is being straight stretches to like all parts of history, mythology, 702 00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: like religion, like and there's things we haven't even mentioned yet, 703 00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 1: for instance, the apple being like the gift you give 704 00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: to a teacher or like or like apple pie being 705 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 1: the quintessential American symbol, like American is apple pie like 706 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:29,359 Speaker 1: or even honestly Apple the company being like the most 707 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: hegemonic power in the entire world, and it's like named Macintosh. 708 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,959 Speaker 1: And then also the thing that apple is named after 709 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 1: is like the apple falling on mutant's head, and that's 710 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 1: like West, you know, that's like science, that's like stem 711 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,160 Speaker 1: apples are stem. And I also feel like that little okay, 712 00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, there's so much to respond to, Like 713 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 1: first of all, the apple falling in her head, like 714 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 1: that idea whether it's like a pocapon and I I 715 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,080 Speaker 1: don't know, but it's like the idea of like Newton 716 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:59,720 Speaker 1: thought about gravity like in our like historical memory, because 717 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 1: an alp will fall in his head like that is 718 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 1: like that itself is like really straight, Like that's like 719 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 1: the straightest entry into like popular science and understanding and 720 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 1: that is like about app bowls and the other thing. 721 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:17,399 Speaker 1: That's really I'm like blown away by this because one 722 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 1: topic that I was thinking of but I didn't end 723 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:21,839 Speaker 1: up pitching it to you guys, was like McIntosh as 724 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 1: a concept, but I didn't even process like that is 725 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: app Like I didn't make that connection, but it is, 726 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 1: and it was like innate, it was subconscious. I feel 727 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,720 Speaker 1: like like this is like almost scary, like we're seeing 728 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 1: something we're not supposed to be seen. It's like it's like, 729 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 1: you know, I'm trying to think of like what a 730 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: what a good you know movie or book that has 731 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 1: this plot is But when you suddenly realized like the 732 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 1: one person was in all three of the locations and 733 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 1: like it's clearly like they're guilty. Like that's how It's 734 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: like I'm kind of I'm unnerved, and I'm also like 735 00:41:56,239 --> 00:42:00,760 Speaker 1: really excited. It's just like no matter what the lenses, like, okay, 736 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 1: you can view it as like um through a narrow lens, 737 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,200 Speaker 1: like okay, apples are basic because apple picking and fall 738 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 1: or you can view it through like a giant lens, 739 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 1: and it's like apples were the original symbol of sinning, 740 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 1: which was heterosexual sex. Like no matter what lens you 741 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 1: view it through, like the apples are there, I've got one, Okay, okay, 742 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 1: Johnny apple seed. Yes, yeah, that's so straight. I mean 743 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: colonizing the damn plants, spreading these apple trees everywhere. Yeah, 744 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 1: something totally like the idea of like seeds and like 745 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 1: how mass produced apples are for like different reasons. What 746 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 1: else I really responsible to what you're saying about how 747 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 1: and and that's like I thought that was going to 748 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 1: be like my crazy point is like how there are 749 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,879 Speaker 1: so many kinds of apples but no one cares. Like 750 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: that is the perfect encapsulation of like straight like basically 751 00:42:51,120 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 1: like the false promise of consumer options. Like I used 752 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 1: to be a member of a food co op and 753 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:03,080 Speaker 1: there were like truly like nine different kinds of apples 754 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 1: and they all had like giant signs that were like 755 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,239 Speaker 1: excited about what kind they were, and it's like they're 756 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 1: all just apple. They're all just apples. And like even 757 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 1: if you go to like yeah, yeah, I get that 758 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,239 Speaker 1: feeling too, even if it's like you go into like 759 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 1: you like descend into the produce section of the Whole 760 00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:22,320 Speaker 1: Foods and there's like different especially now right this season, 761 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,919 Speaker 1: and they're all kind of like marketed at you. They're 762 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:27,719 Speaker 1: like this or like you know how Trader Joe's is 763 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,840 Speaker 1: like really horny about their like fruit. It's like this 764 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 1: guy is fuzzy and like and sweet, you know what 765 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: I'm talking. But I feel like something about like yeah, 766 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: like that's how apples are often presented. But it's like, okay, 767 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:47,399 Speaker 1: they're all apples, and wait, um, should I have another 768 00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:49,920 Speaker 1: saw it? Okay? Actually in my mind is jumping all 769 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:51,719 Speaker 1: over the place this idea. I feel like we're not 770 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: ready for it. But the idea in the inverse like 771 00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:58,279 Speaker 1: what is a not straight fruit? But I think we're 772 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: not there yet. I think, yeah, there's more in the apple. 773 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 1: We need to get to the bottom of apple first, 774 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,279 Speaker 1: but I can think of non straight first. Okay, but 775 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:10,880 Speaker 1: even like, sorry, go ahead, okay another one. I'm like 776 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 1: just thinking apple thing. Having an Adams Apple whoa you 777 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 1: know who you know? Came to my brain is Adam Driver. 778 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 1: Adam Driver hasn't Adam's apple pronounced one? And it's like, yeah, 779 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 1: that is like we were talking about him, like yeah, 780 00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:31,839 Speaker 1: basically that's problematic anyway, So like yeah, right, Adam driver 781 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,359 Speaker 1: his his Adam's apple for example, like that itself, why 782 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 1: is that even Oh because it got caught The idea 783 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 1: is that it got caught it atam throat. Yeah, it's 784 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: all it goes back to the Bible. Um, but but 785 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,320 Speaker 1: it's just it goes to show you know, my curtain 786 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 1: temporary masculinity is like you know, it goes back to 787 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 1: the like it all goes back to Adam, right, and 788 00:44:56,400 --> 00:45:02,359 Speaker 1: like okay, so also oh, like um, you know how 789 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: if you think about it, like we already talked about 790 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:05,960 Speaker 1: how it's kind of related to school, but if you 791 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 1: think about like let's think about like a first grade 792 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 1: math worksheet where there's like little pictures. It's like three 793 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 1: pictures of apples, and that's like elementary like like introducing 794 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 1: kids to like placing number value. Yes. Also, don't you 795 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 1: feel like with the alphabet it's always a for apple always, 796 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 1: Like if you're if you're looking at a worksheet that's 797 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 1: like a poster in a in a classroom that has 798 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 1: a thing for each letter, it's always a for apple. 799 00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:35,280 Speaker 1: Sometimes I feel like the only other times it's an apple, 800 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: it's like ard mark, which feels more queer, but that's 801 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 1: work is of course queer. This is what is this? 802 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:49,239 Speaker 1: Is this like the number twenty three or something like, 803 00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:52,800 Speaker 1: Oh my god, Oh my god. It's like drying apples 804 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 1: all over. You're like, it's an apple. It's the apple. 805 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 1: I just like, yeah, you're drawing apples on the wall. 806 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 1: Like my hands are kind of sweaty right now, and 807 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:05,279 Speaker 1: I think it's because of this. Like I'm like, my 808 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 1: heart is kind of beating as I think about it. Well, yeah, 809 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 1: it's almost I almost like we can't think about this 810 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 1: too much because if we uncover something, we're not like 811 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,439 Speaker 1: like we're gonna cover like the secret of the world, 812 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 1: and then it's like there will be no mystery left. 813 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:19,640 Speaker 1: I do want to get literal for one second. How 814 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 1: do we feel about cider? Oh? I was just thinking 815 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:26,480 Speaker 1: about apple cider donuts, which I don't really understand, Like 816 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 1: I don't okay, I feel like there's a whole thing 817 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 1: about apple cider donuts. It's like, oh, it's fault to 818 00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,200 Speaker 1: Farmer's Market and get one. And I kind of like 819 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 1: this is just kind of like, is it a donut 820 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:39,400 Speaker 1: that's made with apple cider, or is it it's like 821 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 1: to be apple cider. It's like they are very good. Yeah, 822 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 1: then that's what else is good normal donuts. Yeah, like 823 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:50,480 Speaker 1: all other flavors. But I love a seasonal tree and 824 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: the scarcity of it makes it feel important. Cider, it's 825 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 1: like alcoholic one like or like I just both Like 826 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:05,280 Speaker 1: I'm like cider for sure. Not alcoholic cider is definitely 827 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 1: just like part of the fall agenda of like apple picking, cider, 828 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 1: leaf leaves, etcetera. Um. Alcoholic cider is interesting because actually, 829 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,719 Speaker 1: compared to beer, it is less straight. I think so 830 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 1: as an option, Yeah, it is less straight. Yeah, use 831 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:29,400 Speaker 1: that because I guess of the like, because beer is 832 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:33,760 Speaker 1: so overpoweringly straight that, like any alternative is less straight. Yeah, okay, 833 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 1: that's what it's also seen as maybe, I would say 834 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 1: in some cultures, like I feel like a cider compared 835 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 1: to a beer, and even compared to wine is seen 836 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:47,360 Speaker 1: as like artsy. It's like yeah, or what's unexpected? It's like, okay, 837 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: we get it. You have an m f A if 838 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 1: someone yeah, and can I tell you a memory? I have? 839 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,240 Speaker 1: Was like maybe, right, it was like the Fallowbiper for COVID. 840 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 1: I was in Portland, Oregon with my mom and we 841 00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 1: went to like we into an Apple's. We went to 842 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,520 Speaker 1: like a cider what do you call what's it called? 843 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 1: Like a brewery, but it was like cider and everything 844 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:08,799 Speaker 1: about it, like every person in there looked the same, 845 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:10,759 Speaker 1: like everyone was wearing I'm wearing red plot right now, 846 00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:12,200 Speaker 1: but like you know, it was like all these guys 847 00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:14,279 Speaker 1: with beards that had red plaid and I couldn't tell 848 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 1: whether it felt like in retrospect and like I don't 849 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,840 Speaker 1: even know if that experience felt straight or like somewhere 850 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:23,800 Speaker 1: else along the spectrum. But I think it's like cider 851 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:28,200 Speaker 1: really complicates the topic. Cider compregates the topic. There's one 852 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,839 Speaker 1: other thing that complicates that, which like we can't get into, 853 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 1: and that's Fiona Apple. That's that's interesting, that's really and 854 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,279 Speaker 1: that just really complicated. Actually, it complicates it quite a bit. 855 00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:49,279 Speaker 1: You can go on multiple direct um huh oh man, 856 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:52,200 Speaker 1: apple cider is there are always exceptions and that's okay. 857 00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 1: Like apple cider can be a little bit gay, like 858 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 1: and Fiona Apple gonna be a little bit gay, and 859 00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:00,800 Speaker 1: like that's okay. It's also like Fiona, Apple's like literally 860 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:04,400 Speaker 1: like playing like it's like it's edgy because it's Apple. 861 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: Like she's like apple and make she's reclaiming Apple, reclaiming up. Okay, 862 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:11,399 Speaker 1: finally we have we have a narrative that makes sense, 863 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:16,239 Speaker 1: which is that Apple is actually reclaiming apple. I want 864 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:20,000 Speaker 1: to maybe simplify this even more. It's like, literally, how 865 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 1: do we feel about eating apples? Correct? Okay, yeah, okay, okay, okay. 866 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 1: Oh so I have a lot of feelings about it. 867 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:31,839 Speaker 1: And then also this kid made me like in the past, 868 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 1: I was working until recently at the school in Brooklyn 869 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 1: and like, um, this kid at first kindergarten or last year, 870 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 1: Like I was like stubbing for this kindergarten class and 871 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:43,719 Speaker 1: then the teacher was like, Okay, you can just give 872 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:50,400 Speaker 1: them each an apple, and like right already, like she's like, oh, 873 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,319 Speaker 1: I have the solution to your problems. Give them an apple. 874 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:54,839 Speaker 1: And the thing is that she was like just give 875 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 1: them the whole apple, Like I don't want to. Like 876 00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:59,560 Speaker 1: she's like kind of like yeah, anyway, her whole he 877 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:01,319 Speaker 1: whole vibe is like I'm not don't We're not gonna 878 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 1: slice it for them. She was like trying to chot 879 00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: some about autonomy, and this one kid was like he 880 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 1: I saw the sentence to me, oh, oh, it's the circle. 881 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,880 Speaker 1: It's the circle kind, I don't want one. And what 882 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 1: he met is that it was just the whole apple slice. 883 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:22,879 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's so sweet circle kind. Wait, this 884 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 1: is okay. When you were growing up, did you eat 885 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:29,160 Speaker 1: apples whole or did your mom cut them up into pieces? So, 886 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,279 Speaker 1: because I was in Japan and this is the whole 887 00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 1: thing there, I would eat them sliced without skin. And 888 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 1: I'm like now remembering the same. And I don't think 889 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 1: this was like a Greek thing. I think it's just 890 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 1: like that's what my mom did. Like after dinner, my 891 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 1: mom would basically just like put a plate in the 892 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:51,560 Speaker 1: middle of the table and then start cutting fruit. And 893 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,960 Speaker 1: for no matter what the fruit was, it was peeled 894 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:57,800 Speaker 1: and cut into slices. And actually, because I randomly didn't 895 00:50:57,800 --> 00:50:59,759 Speaker 1: like fruit, apple was one of the only fruits I 896 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 1: did eat because it's like the least Like it's like 897 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:04,719 Speaker 1: I was freaked out by things like being juicy and 898 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:11,360 Speaker 1: exploding in my mouth and like apples are manageable. Um. Yeah, 899 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 1: that's so interesting because it's just kind of like crisp 900 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:17,959 Speaker 1: and sweet and it's not It's like Chris, It's yeah, 901 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 1: there's nothing saccharine really about an apple. There's nothing like that. 902 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:28,400 Speaker 1: Like the texture isn't really anything. I've always kind of 903 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 1: been an apple hater, Like I can have like one slice, 904 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 1: but like if I'm eating a full apple, something about 905 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:39,080 Speaker 1: it like halfway through it gets disgusting to me, and 906 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:41,399 Speaker 1: I'm like, I have to get out of here. I think. 907 00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:44,280 Speaker 1: So when I was like in high school, I started 908 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,719 Speaker 1: getting oh oh wait, I forgot about this actually. So 909 00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 1: when I was in high school, this is when we're 910 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:51,319 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, I got like really into eating apples whole. 911 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,839 Speaker 1: And I think what's funny is like, you know how 912 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 1: people this is like, Okay, My point is I ate 913 00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:00,959 Speaker 1: so many foujie apples that I started collecting the little 914 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:02,720 Speaker 1: stickers and I put them on the back of a binder. 915 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:04,919 Speaker 1: So like there was like a moment in high school 916 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 1: where I like had a binder that was covered in 917 00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 1: these apples and I eat a lot of them like whole. 918 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:11,319 Speaker 1: But now, you know how like when people are like, oh, 919 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,280 Speaker 1: in your thirties, like speaking of like alcohol or whatever, 920 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 1: it's like in your thirties, Like if I have this 921 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:17,840 Speaker 1: food at this hour, like it hurts my body. I 922 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,359 Speaker 1: feel like I can't actually eat a whole apple, not 923 00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:22,719 Speaker 1: for any reason other than it's kind of just really fibrous. 924 00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 1: It's like a lot. I agree, it's a lot. I like, 925 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:28,279 Speaker 1: I'll get an apple in a salad. I laid an 926 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:31,400 Speaker 1: apple with like cheese, like whatever it. Wait, I have 927 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 1: a new concept that I just thought of. Okay, okay, Basically, 928 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:43,080 Speaker 1: all things that are good with apples also have like cinnamon. 929 00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:46,279 Speaker 1: And so my theory is like cinnamon is like the 930 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,919 Speaker 1: woman doing the invisible labor, and apple is getting all 931 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,520 Speaker 1: the glory. So like it's like an apple cider doughnut. 932 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 1: It's like what you like there is the cinnamon and 933 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 1: the sugar, or like an apple pie, like what you 934 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:01,880 Speaker 1: like is not the apple, it's like the other flavors. 935 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 1: And so cinnamon is like working really hard and she's 936 00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 1: actually the one like bringing the value that people like 937 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:14,760 Speaker 1: and she's never in the title. Cinnamon is emotional labor 938 00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:22,120 Speaker 1: exactly and physical. Wait, I think that is so genius. 939 00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:25,840 Speaker 1: I like, I'm I'm feeling a little bit seen because 940 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,359 Speaker 1: I've always been like I don't like apples, but an 941 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 1: apple pie one of my favorite things. And an apple 942 00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 1: doughnut I love. And so I was like what is that? 943 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 1: And it's like the cinnamon. I don't like apple, I 944 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 1: like cinnamon and sugar, you dumb bitch. Yeah, And same 945 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:41,480 Speaker 1: with like an apple, like even like a you know, 946 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 1: even an apple sighter, like if you have like a 947 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 1: warm sighter or something. It's like what you're responding to 948 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:51,560 Speaker 1: is the is the fall flavors? It's not totally. When 949 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,719 Speaker 1: I was a kid, my favorite thing at Starbucks, oh yeah, 950 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:56,000 Speaker 1: I have oh my gosh. Okay, So like when I 951 00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:57,759 Speaker 1: was in eighth grade, basically I was waking to the 952 00:53:57,800 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 1: school in Tokyo, where like the school was like dropped 953 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 1: stop at this train station, and my first sense of 954 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:04,279 Speaker 1: like independence was that I would go to the Starbucks 955 00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 1: and I would get like I would get this like um, 956 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 1: like you know this is the first chapter and like 957 00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:15,840 Speaker 1: a story of consumerism. But I like got the caramel 958 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:17,879 Speaker 1: apple cider, which it would just be like cat apple 959 00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:22,160 Speaker 1: cider with whipped cream and caramel drizzlings on top and 960 00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 1: like a splash of cinnamon. And the thing is that, yeah, 961 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 1: all these other elements are like pulling the weight. Yeah, 962 00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:29,920 Speaker 1: caramel to like when you have like a caramelized apple 963 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 1: or like a caramel covered apple. And I think that 964 00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 1: my favorite a sandwich I really like is like okay, 965 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 1: apple and like a sharp white cheddar and like a 966 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:42,040 Speaker 1: kind of intense mustard. Oh. Interesting, I was thinking I 967 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 1: thought you were going to go another direction, which is 968 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,759 Speaker 1: like apple and like brie. Oh, that's what I thought 969 00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:48,360 Speaker 1: you were going there as well. But is that gay 970 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:50,160 Speaker 1: or straight or something? I mean, all of this is 971 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:57,880 Speaker 1: gay if you're you're combining apple and cheese like you're subverting. Yeah, 972 00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:05,840 Speaker 1: you're purposefully going sort of an anti American direction. So 973 00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 1: here's a question. What about pairs? I mean, Sam, do 974 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:15,760 Speaker 1: you want to go? I'm like overwhelmed by this question. Pairs. 975 00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:21,280 Speaker 1: I still see pairs as straight to be honest, interesting, 976 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 1: I would disagree. I see them almost as like they're 977 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:28,840 Speaker 1: more of a classic thing. Like pairs do remind me 978 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:33,520 Speaker 1: even more of old times. There's something about like thinking 979 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:37,320 Speaker 1: of them in like old paintings. Yeah, I feel like 980 00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,480 Speaker 1: they're really fetishized in the past in a way that 981 00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:43,280 Speaker 1: like kind of makes them feel straight to me. But yeah, 982 00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:47,080 Speaker 1: there was like some kind of like femininity projected onto 983 00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 1: them that you're right, that feels pretty straight. Well, there's 984 00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 1: also like I have, you know, two sisters, and like 985 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:55,520 Speaker 1: I grew up with like you know, like in women's 986 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:58,759 Speaker 1: magazines and stuff. It's a lot of it would be 987 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 1: like are you a hair shape or an apple shape? 988 00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:10,640 Speaker 1: Like the pear and the apple as like types of womanhood. Yeah. Yeah, 989 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:13,239 Speaker 1: And in fact I think, well, now I'm like, what 990 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:17,319 Speaker 1: is the more desirable one or during the like two 991 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:19,480 Speaker 1: thousand's what I guess people wanted to be a pear 992 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:21,960 Speaker 1: shaped and not an apple shape, which feels weird because 993 00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:23,560 Speaker 1: I feel like as was not in then and a 994 00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:27,600 Speaker 1: pair has asked, I guess there's also celery. Yeah, there was, 995 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 1: and that's what people wanted anyway. To me. Pairs, though, 996 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 1: I see what you're saying, like they're so kind of 997 00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,240 Speaker 1: vintage and historical, but at the same time, I feel 998 00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:39,919 Speaker 1: like they're always playing second fiddle to Apple, like they're 999 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:44,200 Speaker 1: like the indie Apple to me, like in popular contemporary culture, 1000 00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:48,759 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, Apple is cold playing Pears or 1001 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:52,319 Speaker 1: Vampire Weekend Totally, it's like what about It's like a 1002 00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:54,319 Speaker 1: parent Okay, It's like tack it up a notch from 1003 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:56,560 Speaker 1: like an apple and cheddar to like a parent and 1004 00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:05,839 Speaker 1: gorgonzola exactly exactly exactly. Wow, I feel like I feel 1005 00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:08,520 Speaker 1: like the actual Like if we're going looking for like 1006 00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:11,319 Speaker 1: a binary, like the opposite of an apple would be 1007 00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:17,640 Speaker 1: a banana. Oh wait why and our banana? Straight? No, 1008 00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:22,720 Speaker 1: I think banana is like I think it's the opposite 1009 00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:29,720 Speaker 1: because it's a completely different texture. It's like, decide it's 1010 00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:32,200 Speaker 1: it's cultural no, okay, okay o, god no, No, I 1011 00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:35,680 Speaker 1: want to know. It's more of the cultural like significance, 1012 00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:38,320 Speaker 1: like it holds a similar place as an apple, but 1013 00:57:38,440 --> 00:57:42,919 Speaker 1: it's like the what it implies, it's just almost the opposite. Okay, yes, 1014 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 1: I'm I'm on board. Okay. And their their flash is 1015 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:51,040 Speaker 1: the same color, which is the irony. Wow, what a lesson? 1016 00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:54,800 Speaker 1: You know, I actually love bananas, and I want to 1017 00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:56,880 Speaker 1: say I love bananas and maybe that's mostly what I'm 1018 00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 1: speaking to that bananas are my go to to have 1019 00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 1: a banana and then like after each bite, put peanut 1020 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,840 Speaker 1: butter on it and then take a bite. There's nothing 1021 00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:11,120 Speaker 1: like that. See that's apples, whoa both pretty satisfying fruit. 1022 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,600 Speaker 1: Like I'll eat like a million grapes, but I don't 1023 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:17,479 Speaker 1: feel like I'm actually absorbing like that is so true. 1024 00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:21,080 Speaker 1: Grapes are just water. Yeah, there's like other fruit like that, 1025 00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:25,200 Speaker 1: And I think my favorite fruits are like probably like berries. 1026 00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:28,320 Speaker 1: But similarly, I don't think I feel like I'm being 1027 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:31,720 Speaker 1: satiated by those. Apples and bananas are like, oh yeah, 1028 00:58:31,760 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 1: this is like a part of a meal. Totally. It's 1029 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 1: apples and bananas are not just part of a meal 1030 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:39,640 Speaker 1: but like a complete snack in the way that many 1031 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:42,440 Speaker 1: other fruits are not. And their serving they have the 1032 00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:47,840 Speaker 1: correct serving size too, Like totally having a banana is like, 1033 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:58,400 Speaker 1: I mean, it's nature's but the banana is more like 1034 00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 1: fickle than an apple because it's I feel like the 1035 00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 1: like shelf life is shorder, it's always running. But then 1036 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 1: make banana bread and that's a whole other thing. And 1037 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:12,560 Speaker 1: that's the whole other things. I also and if we're 1038 00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:15,640 Speaker 1: bananas also and we have to talk about this, they 1039 00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:20,440 Speaker 1: you know, exude sexuality. They people are that it's the 1040 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:24,120 Speaker 1: obvious thing, but it's like it's it's a dick y'all people. 1041 00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:27,640 Speaker 1: People you can ruin a high school or's sort of 1042 00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 1: whole day by saying, hey, that looks like a dick. Yeah, 1043 00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 1: it's interesting that the banana we associate with the dick, 1044 00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:42,000 Speaker 1: apple with an undesirable woman's body, yeah, or an apple jeans. Okay, 1045 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:44,280 Speaker 1: so this is like, you know, how like is w 1046 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,360 Speaker 1: is apple stone fruit? I don't know, no, because the 1047 00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 1: stone fruit is like things that have like the pit inside. 1048 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 1: So that's all like kind of like a peach is 1049 00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 1: like like Yonnick like it looks like as like it's like, right, 1050 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 1: an apple, I don't alf it really has that. I 1051 01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:03,880 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm trying to think of like if you 1052 01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 1: cut an apple and see what you're saying that the 1053 01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:11,200 Speaker 1: apple is weirdly not sexual. It's one of the few 1054 01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 1: fruits that isn't sexual. It's not it's yeah, it's a 1055 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:18,360 Speaker 1: non sexual fruit. It's because it's not juice. I mean, 1056 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:20,200 Speaker 1: not to go back to the juice element, but it's 1057 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,840 Speaker 1: not juicy and it's not I mean, yes, there is 1058 01:00:22,880 --> 01:00:25,760 Speaker 1: a certain yonnick element to the inside of an apple, 1059 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:31,320 Speaker 1: but not enough. Not enough. Not enough, yeah, not enough 1060 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:35,920 Speaker 1: to make that point go home. You know. It's like yeah, 1061 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:40,880 Speaker 1: so like okay, yeah, like mangoes sexual, it's just not 1062 01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:43,120 Speaker 1: an aphrodisiac, like and and that's why and that's like 1063 01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 1: part of its term. That's why it's so chaste. It's 1064 01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:46,800 Speaker 1: like the thing you give a teacher. It's the thing 1065 01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:48,800 Speaker 1: you serve on Christmas. You know. The apple pie is 1066 01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 1: that you serve like a hot day, Like it's not 1067 01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 1: an apple. Apple will never make something more sexy. Apple 1068 01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:59,520 Speaker 1: is puritanical. It's puritanical. I mean it is. It's like 1069 01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:02,800 Speaker 1: new and is. Yeah, it is New England. It's like 1070 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:09,320 Speaker 1: Amish totally. Actually, there's never more Amish fruit than the 1071 01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 1: app I feel like, yeah, yeah, don't question yourself. That's no. 1072 01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:24,120 Speaker 1: Like someone pushing literally someone pushing like an old wooden wheelbarrow. 1073 01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:30,160 Speaker 1: It's like filled with apples, and that's straight. And those 1074 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:35,600 Speaker 1: apples they represent hate someone pushing that wheelbarrow they're pushing. Hey, 1075 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:42,320 Speaker 1: this has been maybe one of the most um like 1076 01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:47,240 Speaker 1: feverish conversations on the topic.
