So let's get what we don't know 65 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 2: out of the way. Let's open with it, okay, and 66 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 2: then we'll talk about what you and I are each 67 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 2: experts on. 68 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: I'll tell you here's another thing I don't know. 69 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 2: Okay. 70 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: Is it George Saunders or George there's a guy that 71 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: wrote that book, somebody in the Barlow or something. I 72 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: bought that book as everyone is like, this is amazing, 73 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: it's the number one book. I could not read it 74 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: at all. Oh no, And I was like, well, I 75 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: never claimed to be a graduate of anything or smart, 76 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: but man, it's irritating to not be able to read 77 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: a book. 78 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: Right, especially when because I was always told by my 79 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 2: parents and I appreciate it that I was intelligent. And 80 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 2: then I took a class in college literary criticism where 81 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 2: we had to read The King James Bible and Nietzsche, 82 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 2: which isn't how you pronounce it. I still don't know. 83 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: Is it Nietzsche Nietzsche Niche Nietzsche. It's we all say niche. 84 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 2: Let's just keep saying nie chee. 85 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, and let's stop lying about the fact that that's 86 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: how we say it. 87 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, don't don't don't turn it into uh, you know, 88 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 2: you've visited there, so you've adopted the accent type of thing. 89 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 2: We had to write papers about this very hard to 90 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 2: read literature, and I was the dumbest kit in the class. 91 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 2: Everyone else was like out with the professor smoking cigarettes, 92 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 2: and I it's still I'm still scarred by it. 93 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 1: Did you drop the class? 94 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: No? I barely passed it, but it was only because 95 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 2: he knew. Oh, you're at a disadvantage just coming in here, 96 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 2: not being as smart as everyone else. 97 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: And was it like some sort of special class like 98 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: you were a lit major or yeah I was. 99 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 2: I was just filling requirements. Oh, a structural system, okay, 100 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: instead of Spanish, I'll take military statistics. I was just 101 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: trying to get and that's why I did. I graduated 102 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 2: with exactly the amount of credits I needed to graduate, 103 00:05:56,040 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 2: and I just went to a you know, the counselor 104 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 2: that kind of gives you that advice, which was my 105 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 2: job for a while. Oh, for new students, I would 106 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 2: tell them a class and I just gave them the 107 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 2: same advice, just take exactly what's required of you and 108 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 2: get the hell out of here. Which wasn't good advice, 109 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 2: but yeah, no. 110 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: I think in this day and age, the cost and 111 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: everything else was probably the best advice. 112 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that, Yeah, exactly. Don't delay dally around 113 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 2: taking classes that just simply pique your interest. Just do 114 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 2: what they need you to do and start your life. 115 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 1: Get those military statistics and get out. 116 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: That class I had to drop. There was an old 117 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 2: man with a flat top shape and he was so 118 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: mean and you couldn't you had to like chart these statistics, yes, 119 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 2: and I did it every day. 120 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: I mean, he made you. 121 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: Well, I was mishearing him and it was an embarrassing 122 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 2: year for me. That is a bad Yeah, everyone else 123 00:06:55,120 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 2: was charting. I was misjudging. But it was so difficult. 124 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 2: It was a math. It was a upper level math 125 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: class that happened to fall under a structural system, and 126 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 2: I ended up dropping it and taking Spanish would seem 127 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: to be totally unrelated. 128 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: But can I say a quick question about what a 129 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: structural system is? 130 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 2: See what do you mean? 131 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: Right? 132 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 2: I know? Right? Exactly, Okay, I it is, Yes, a 133 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 2: structural system. It falls under language or math, anything where 134 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 2: you have to gradually learn something. Oh, it seems that 135 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 2: any class you would ever take would have to be 136 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 2: some sort of a structured system. Yeah, so yes, even art. 137 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: It's so funny that I do remember. That was the 138 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 2: thing that I needed, and I should I shall around more. 139 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 2: But that literary class was so embarrassing. I really was 140 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 2: the dumb. It was one of those classes where it's 141 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 2: only ten people at a table. 142 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: So it's like a casual discussion, but everyone's a different discussion. 143 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 2: Than you, and everyone read your paper. Then you had 144 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 2: to elaborate like it was an art criticism class, like 145 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 2: which I enjoyed talking about other people's paintings and. 146 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: Ripping them apart. 147 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 2: Yeah I don't. I shouldn't have enjoyed it, but I did, 148 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 2: and that is what I did. But in this class, 149 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 2: they just ripped me apart with looks like oh boy, 150 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 2: I would see them like rolling their eyes and stuff. 151 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:44,199 Speaker 2: I felt so dumb and thank god, that was the 152 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: last time. 153 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: That reminds me. Ever, that reminds me of I took 154 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: a poetry class in college before I gave up college, 155 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: and I thought I'd be amazing at it because I 156 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: in high school wrote a lot of homes in lower 157 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: case letters, almost like Hiku style, so to only be 158 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: like three words to align. 159 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 2: You did that on Twitter too. You got me in 160 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 2: the habit of lowercasing the beginning. Yeah, I think you 161 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 2: were at the forefront of that. 162 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 1: Keep it cash, I think it was. But with my poetry, 163 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I'm gonna be amazing at this. 164 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: I was so god damn bad at it. And there 165 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: was it was the same thing, but it was fifteen 166 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 1: people at a table and then you turn your poem 167 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: in and every we don't have to talk about it, 168 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: and like when people talk about something like that of 169 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: yours with like that kind of like disdain. It was 170 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: the worst feeling and I just couldn't believe it.
