The Sesame Workshop has released his 12 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: statements saying that they are not gay. They are best friends. 13 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: But the writer, the creator of Burton Ernie um a 14 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: gay man sort of said in an interview with Queer Ta, 15 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: I believe that when he was writing, when he was 16 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: conceiving them of them, that he had no other way 17 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: to view them. But as a couple, I have hooked 18 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,759 Speaker 1: up with Burt consistently since I moved to New York City, 19 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: and I am willing to take a polygraph to that 20 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: at Bert I will share this.

But um, my partner of 166 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: many years, like, she has family in San Diego that 167 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 1: is like, and I'm like, oh, we should we're there 168 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 1: a lot, were there enough that it would not be fraudulent, 169 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: like like it's her parents spent half the year there 170 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: and we're there a lot, and it's just like I 171 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: should do. That's just as much as being like I 172 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: never unregistered from my college town or whatever, like, just 173 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: to actually have a vote that matters. So the point 174 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: is if you are registered, get off those roles. It's 175 00:08:54,679 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: it takes five seconds registered? Do you registered to vote? Um, 176 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: I know someone that just reregistered in Michigan. That's all 177 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: I'll say about that. I think I know who this is, 178 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: and I think it's a smart strategic move. But he 179 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: doesn't live there. But there's very much not living there, 180 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: all right. But we have to fight fire with fire. 181 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: In fact, that's what Michael Avanadi said. That might be 182 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: his campaign slogan, no joke, fight fire with fire. Otherwise 183 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: they're going to break your arm and you're not gonna 184 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: like it as much. And I always say that I 185 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: saw Darren Chris in his suit last night on the 186 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: Emmy's I said, I'd let that man break my arm, 187 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,719 Speaker 1: you know, like give him an extra Emmy for the 188 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: performative heterosexuality. I think he I think he's the real deal. 189 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: I had a barbecue at my house and I'm a 190 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: fan of his work and I loved American Horror Story. Um. 191 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: He a friend that came invited him. It was the 192 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: day after he'd gotten the Emmy nomination. I think they 193 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: they'd had a bit of a party the night before, 194 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:57,839 Speaker 1: like a surprise thing for him, but because it was 195 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 1: a party, they didn't eat the cake that was made 196 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: for his uh, that his like wife got for him. 197 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: And so just in this last minute invite to come 198 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: to this barbecue at my house, they brought the cake 199 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 1: and they were being silly about it and embarrassed, but 200 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: ultimately did put down with like a handful of homemade 201 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: complers a cake that said like congratulations on your Emmy. 202 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: No, no no, Darren, like my barbecue. Yes, it wasn't like 203 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: my birthday or anything, but it was just like this 204 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,079 Speaker 1: beautiful like Matt chocolate. It was like a gorgeous cake 205 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: but next to like you know, stuff that friends and 206 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: I had cooked. And it was appreciated, but also like 207 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: they suddenly got embarrassed and we're like should we wipe 208 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: the words off? And I was like that feels you 209 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: don't have to do that, but then they did. They 210 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: felt so bad because they didn't want to be It 211 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: was just like, we have a full cake. Straight It 212 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: would have been way more queer and radical to just 213 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: lay that cake on the table and be like, this 214 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: is my party. Now, I take it back, I take 215 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 1: it back. He seems um. I loved his sou and 216 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: I was like, but he was very you have a 217 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: fly suit. A straight man who wears that kind of 218 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: suit is too much of an ally and there might 219 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: be such a thing. But the suit of the night 220 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: was your friend John Malanya Emmy winner John mulaney, can 221 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: be unbelievable. That light blue suit. That was? That was 222 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: that was. I always say if I ever go to 223 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 1: the Emmy's I'm wearing a color. Yeah, I'm wearing a 224 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: canary yellow. And I think it's hard for like kind 225 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: of like boring ish white guys to pull off color 226 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: without seeming yeah ironic or like, oh, like, he looked good. 227 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: I thought it looked classy, not just like transgressive or whatever. Well, 228 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: I feel like in the past few years he is 229 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: up to the glam factor in a major way. Someone's 230 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: styling kid gorgeous, kid gorgeous? Is that Karat is that 231 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: the doing of Kara Maslin.

Was? 255 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: It was a cooking show. I had three food shows, 256 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 1: all failed after one season very quickly. Let let's let's 257 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: run through them, because because I I needed I need 258 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: a little because I'm fascinated. Um, and let's let's first 259 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: acknowledge that this is brave for me to acknowledge this. 260 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 1: I've been obviously spent years trying to rebrain it, get 261 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: people like you younger up and you know, like the future, 262 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: to forget that. That was sort of my path. I 263 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: had a show with Gail Simmons and Marcus Marcus Samuelson, 264 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: like a talk show thing called The Feed. The Feed, 265 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 1: that's a great title thing. It was kind of like 266 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: top Gear, which I also don't watch, but about food 267 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: instead of cars. Uh. You know that audience is almost 268 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: too obvious. It's like they're all right here, you know. Uh. 269 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: And then I did a show that was kind of 270 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: like the amazing Race meets Chopped that was like dangerous 271 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: it was called pressure Cooker and couples. God, I've done. 272 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: Do they run with cutlery? Kind of yeah, yeah, culture 273 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: number six you cannot run with cutlery, You're gonna stab 274 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 1: an eye out, which would have made for good television. 275 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: More people would have watched the episode where they had 276 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: to like have v O at the end explaining why 277 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: there's no footage. But no, the idea was like a 278 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:11,439 Speaker 1: couples like brothers, sister, husband, wife, etcetera. One who's a 279 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: professional cook, one who's bad. Three teams would be dropped 280 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: in a state they've never been in. Um. They would 281 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: get like clues basically to um where grocery stores were. 282 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: They weren't allowed to use GPS, only had to flip phone, 283 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: so half of the show was kind of like a 284 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: you know, like the like weird uh. They'd be trying 285 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: to get to some grocery store, but then like a 286 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: herd of sheep would cross the road and they're like honey, 287 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: and they'd be fighting. And then they got the grocery 288 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: store and they're like, we're only liquor store and they're 289 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: like we only have twenty minutes to get and then 290 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 1: the and then it was outdoor cooking for the second 291 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: half in the vista of like we did Portland, Maine, Philly. 292 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: It was like then localized. I mean it was crazy. 293 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: That's incredibly you need so many skills to be good 294 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: at that. Oh my god. Yeah. And then I did 295 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: a show on Bravo called Recipe for Deception that was 296 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: even more complicated. What's the deception? Okay, yeah, what is this? 297 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: So it was kind of like chopped and that you had, 298 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: like I guess it was four shift was like one 299 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: on one, one on one, and then the winners would 300 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: face off, so three rounds each had to make a 301 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: dish with a secret ingredient. The trick was they didn't 302 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 1: know their own secret ingredient, but the other chef did, 303 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: so they were allowed at the top of the show 304 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: to ask three questions of the other chef yes or 305 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: no questions to narrow down their secret ingredient, and that 306 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: chef answered with two truths in a lie. Jesus. It 307 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: was like you needed to paper. It was a mob 308 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: a mobius strip of a reality. I had to do 309 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: so much a d R trying like as they tried 310 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: to piece the story of each thing because they'd be 311 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: like so like the whole show is that weird, hushed 312 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: padma Top Chef style like a d R done years later. Uh, 313 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: just me being like, so right now Doug is trying 314 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: to cook a shrimp dish, but he misunderstand the clue. 315 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: That was the lie lie clue. His ingredient is actually marshmallow. 316 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 1: He's got nothing sweet going. I like it was the same, 317 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: Agree it was. It was a lot and then like 318 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: at ten minutes they got to ask one more question 319 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: if they got it right, if they guessed it with 320 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: this a lie. They then got to ask a fourth question. 321 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: It was it was a little bit doomed, just fun 322 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: to make, manifold. Are you a food show fan? Now? 323 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: You know? Um, that stuff came out of me, like 324 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: writing Eater and grant Land recaps of shows for many 325 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: many years, and I think all that time spent watching 326 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: and having to be like, you know, look for the moment, 327 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: find the animated Jeff or whatever. Um. After those shows, 328 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: I like, I have not watched any of them, but 329 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: not out of any like I'm above it or beyond it, 330 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: just being like I can't jump back into Top Chef. 331 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 1: I think it's a good show. But yeah, yeah, totally 332 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: I have to say, I have a blind spot for 333 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: like food show same. I try to watch Nail Did, 334 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: but I feel that the stakes are I know that 335 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 1: the whole point is that like it's it's their stakes 336 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: aren't there. But and I do love Nicole. That was 337 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: also my fourth show The stakes aren't there, which is people. 338 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: It was like a butchery cut off, but they didn't 339 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: know where their stakes were, so they would have to 340 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: follow a map that was only half real. Live stare there. 341 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: And so someone would say that in every episode organically 342 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: they would be would it would be like a plate 343 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: and they revealed the plate and the stakes wouldn't be 344 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: there and there, and then the show would begin, and 345 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: then I will say that, um, speaking of stakes, A 346 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 1: Great British Bakeoff has turned me around. I watched that 347 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: religiously now because it's sort of like diametrically opposite from 348 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: what we're used to. It's just so it's so genteel 349 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: and it's so like lovely. And I used the acronym 350 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 1: incorrectly all the time, I'm sure, but it's a like 351 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: a SMR, you know. Like we literally in our new apartment, 352 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: my girlfriend and I like we were like, we're not 353 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: going to have a TV in the bedroom. We used 354 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: to we watched too much TV in the bedroom, but 355 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: we put one back on the dresser just for ten 356 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: minutes of Great British Bakeoff before bed. It is the 357 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: most soothing tonight cap It's a it's a fun little 358 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: I think what's missing from Great British Bake Off from 359 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: me is the cutthroat, bitchy quality that I need, which 360 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: is why I think I'd like Top Chef. You're never 361 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 1: going to get that from g BB. No, I'm not, 362 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: I know, but like I didn't think I was gonna 363 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,399 Speaker 1: like Project Runway, and then I started watching Project Runway 364 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 1: and I loved it because they're truly nasty, right, But 365 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: Padma's Padma's fantastic. I haven't seen that much. Top Chef 366 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 1: either was wonderful. She's really really Yeah. I got to 367 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: meet her and hang out with her once, since she 368 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,360 Speaker 1: was everything I wanted her. What happened was is that like, 369 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 1: uh they I got to guest judge on an episode 370 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 1: of Top Chef, like kind of his cross promotion from 371 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: my yes, so um, someone in the Bravo marketing department 372 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: was like, you know, we've got you there where we're 373 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: filming for the day, we should do like kind of 374 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 1: a web you know, like, well, let's do this thing 375 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: where you maybe do like a funny kind of sketch 376 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 1: with Padmo. You know, we have her for twenty minutes 377 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 1: or whatever. Right, So, before I even pitched anything out there, 378 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: like and just you know, some ground rules with Padma, 379 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: you know, you know, like obviously she loves to great 380 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: sense of humor about herself, loves to have fun, you know, 381 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: like she's up for anything, though, you know, no jokes 382 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: that makes it seem like she doesn't know about food. Uh, 383 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 1: no jokes that undercut this nothing that points out like 384 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 1: it was kind of an intense, like calculated like don't 385 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: do that. But then the idea I pitched was like, well, 386 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: I am genuinely in awe of her and not as 387 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 1: experienced as her. Why don't we do a thing where 388 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: I play up being like a nervous new food host 389 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 1: interviewing the queen, and just like I can just be 390 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: kind of bad at it, and she can be a 391 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 1: little like condescending and her and they're like, yeah, we're 392 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: totally gonna tell her about that, Like that'll be great, 393 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: and like it seems easy. She can just lean into 394 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: what she does and I can do whatever. So we're 395 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 1: placed in this tiny, little unair conditioned green room like 396 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: that clearly interrupts her hair and makeup for the real 397 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 1: and she's like, I'm doing a favor for the like 398 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: Bravo Web department, but obviously yeah yeah. And she's sitting 399 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: there and like her, you know, like hair and makeup 400 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: birds are flooding around, and I'm just like, no, it's fine, 401 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 1: I'll sweat through this suit. I don't care at all. Genuinely, 402 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there kind of almost like knee to knee 403 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 1: with her because it's like a tight one camera, two 404 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 1: shot or whatever, and no one really introduces me or 405 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: someone's like, uh, patma, this is Max. He's he's he's 406 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,719 Speaker 1: gonna be judged it, but he's also he's hosting Recipe 407 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: for Deception. She just kind of does like a nod 408 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: and looks at me, clearly not prepped, not ready to 409 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: do the sketch, and so off camera. Um, she's like 410 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,919 Speaker 1: looking at me and she's like, so, like, so, what 411 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 1: is what is your show that you're hosting?

Jerry, I guess, doesn't shake hands. Yeah, 443 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: So I went up to shake his hand because he 444 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: actually had cast me for the part like he was 445 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 1: when I when I auditioned, Like no one knew that 446 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: was gonna happen.

Just 487 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,360 Speaker 1: just forget about it. And she's really cold, by the way, 488 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: it's really cold in this place, and she's freezing. She's freezing. 489 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,919 Speaker 1: She has prepared answers about process and we were like, 490 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 1: oh my god. We were in these ridiculous suits, were 491 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: like not journalists were like, oh my god, it's like 492 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: Vulture fest, like right, the RuPaul's drag Riss recaps, that's 493 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: the only reason. First move is to touch everyone's hair, 494 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 1: like literally like we had just done something with Jonathan 495 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: Jonathan van Ness where we were just like screaming, like screaming, 496 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,360 Speaker 1: and then Julianna comes in and we were so terrified. 497 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 1: It was Marty Well, first it was Marty Knox in yes, 498 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 1: who was a queen legend. And then um, oh may 499 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 1: may something that actress in Dietland. Yes, fantastic, So it 500 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: was it was for some Dietland pressed thing. So Marty 501 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 1: and this actress come in and then Julianna comes in 502 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 1: just clenched at her biceps, just like it's so so 503 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 1: cold in this room? Is is it gonna be as 504 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 1: cold and this from as it is in the other room, 505 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: And we were like, oh my god, no, this is 506 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 1: really going to happen. Were journalists were also in charge 507 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: of the temperature in all these rooms, so glad you asked? 508 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 1: So then she sits down and then like the cameras 509 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: start rolling and then what do we do? I mean 510 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: like this is all blurting me honest, Well, basically it 511 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,880 Speaker 1: was like at that point it's like, well, we're still 512 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: going to be us, you know what I mean. So 513 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,120 Speaker 1: then we start playing going to suddenly I'm not gonna 514 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: like I don't I wouldn't know what to ask Joanna 515 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: Margarlies about her process, like we we didn't know. So 516 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: we end up doing like a bit with her and 517 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: she actually was gained to do it, and then so 518 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 1: basically like by the end of it, she was like, oh, 519 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: like super like down the clown and like, why doesn't 520 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: my team let me do more bits? And then like 521 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: that that kept happening to like throughout the thing, like 522 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,719 Speaker 1: the publicity people would come in and they'd be like, 523 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: m this is gonna be the way it is, and 524 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,199 Speaker 1: don't straight from it and don't ask this question. And 525 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: literally one celebrity came in and we were asked explicitly 526 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,679 Speaker 1: while he was right there this the publicist was like, 527 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: do not ask any questions about their personal life, and 528 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 1: he made a face at me like I'm so sorry. 529 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I mean of course we would. 530 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, publicists are often those people's worst 531 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: enemy of like they're being they're making everyone hate that 532 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: person on their back. But it's like about the publicist thing. 533 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,159 Speaker 1: But I also think it's probably there's some actors that 534 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: are like, I mean, it's just so fun comedians, I'd 535 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 1: love to do bits and then like having the past 536 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 1: done the like Liam Neeson and that Ricky Gervais show 537 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 1: where he's like wants to do an improv and just 538 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 1: like keep saying as full blown age. There's clearly actors 539 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 1: who like should be protected from riffing off the top 540 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 1: of their head where the publicist is like, you were 541 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 1: going to say such a horrible thing if you're allowed. 542 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: And then but by the end of the Julianna interview, 543 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: she came over does and she said, quote, well, you 544 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 1: two are a hoot and holler. And then she said 545 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: she said to me and she goes, you know, you 546 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 1: could be Matt Bohmer's little brother. And I was like wow. 547 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: I literally looked her in the eyes and I was like, 548 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: that's the best thing anyone's ever said to me. She 549 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: was like very kind. And but that's the thing is, 550 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 1: it's like you don't know who's who's telling the truth there. 551 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: It's it's a weird situation because it's like the publicists 552 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: probably has been told by the celebrity before, like how 553 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: dare you let me do that? But also you know 554 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: they're overcompensating because they don't want to be put in 555 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: that situation. I always think every like I watched all 556 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 1: of the Good Wife really like Julianna Margarlie, She's amazing. 557 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 1: But I remember reading a thing um probably on Vulture 558 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: that like uh Les moon viz r I P thank 559 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: god had had.

So Julie Chen 595 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: is going to leave the talk. Just saw that headline today, right. 596 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: We're triumphant about it because she came after us. She 597 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: came after us because at that very same Vulture Festival, 598 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,959 Speaker 1: we interviewed Tracy Morgan and maybe you don't remember this, 599 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: but there was that weird thing about Tracy Morgan's talking 600 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:30,520 Speaker 1: about Tiffany Hattish like that, but they worked together, yes, 601 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: And so we we were doing and we didn't even 602 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: know Tracy was coming, and no Harry publicist ran in 603 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: and said, we were told all day Tracy is not 604 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: doing this room. Were like, great, and was he doing 605 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,959 Speaker 1: press for? And so then he finally comes in and 606 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: then he sits down and he's giving us great vibes, 607 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: and then like we start the interview. And then the 608 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: first thing we asked him is, uh, congrats on the 609 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: lasto G. How does it feel to be working with 610 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: all these great actors um like Tiffany Harnish And then 611 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: he goes, we're not going to talk about her. He 612 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: said that, Yeah, he said that, And then but then 613 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: it became this thing that he became this longer meditation 614 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: about how it takes so many people to make a 615 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: successful TV show, and he's memorized every crew member's names, 616 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: and it was a beautiful sort of he was on 617 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: that if you're going to ask about Tiffany, asked about said, 618 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: ask about the crew, asked about craft services, and he's like, 619 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: I know all their names, and so I'm thinking, like 620 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: we're doing a little bit of a bit now, but 621 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: he's hard to read. So then the way it was 622 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: edited down and the way it got picked up in 623 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: the media was like Tracy Morgan talk about Tiffany Haddish. 624 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 1: So they planned on the talk and Miss Julie Chen says, 625 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Julie. Sorry, Julie invest signing off confidently standing 626 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: with her abuser husband important to nail this home is 627 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: the real big brother. So Julie Chen Moonves says, you know, 628 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: I thought it was really kind of disrespectful of the 629 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: interviewers to ask a question about the co star when 630 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: the star of the show was sitting right there. When meanwhile, 631 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: a to act like she's never asked someone about their 632 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: co star and her entire journalistic career is truly insane 633 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: and be the whole point of what he was saying 634 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: was shine a light on other people, all the stars. 635 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: So it was truly insane. So like Julie Chen Moonvez's 636 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: downfall is one that we are we're we're just fine with, 637 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 1: We're just fine with. I mean, yeah, he's the Howard 638 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: stuff today was interesting Howard Howard sting that came after 639 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 1: and after and both of them. I mean it it 640 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: feels hard to it's hard to separate the total him 641 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: when you're you know, like a badass unit. Yeah. Well 642 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 1: he was like, how are you going to leave? Like 643 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: you're going to leave the talk and like where women 644 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: talk about these things that to slap in the face 645 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 1: two women, you know, to side and he was mainly 646 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:59,479 Speaker 1: saying to side with Les Moonves right now. Totally truly crazy. Yeah, 647 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: but I mean, of course, like, of course she is right. 648 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: Of course, of course I think she's old school. But 649 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: that's a very good wife narrative, very good wife narrative. 650 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 1: My god, that's definitely like an easy thing to put 651 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: in the like, like, well for season three, we're thinking that, 652 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: you know, like just really thought it out. But how 653 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: was a good show The Good Wife? Huh? So I 654 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: haven't watched the new Yeah, here that's great. Yeah, I 655 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: I never I never got into I'm still in the 656 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: the first couple of seasons where it's still like a procedural. 657 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: I still like The Good Wife. I feel like the 658 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: reason it's hard to get into The Good Wife is 659 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: because now you have all these prestige shows that are 660 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: like twelve episodes, and The Good Wife was still harkening 661 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: back to the era four episodes seasons, and it's just like, really, 662 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: we'll see. I don't love um cooling out with comedy 663 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:49,719 Speaker 1: as far as binging goes, like, that's just like if 664 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: I'm cooking or whatever, that's usually not what I want 665 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: to put on. But Good Wife is a show where like, 666 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: because it's twenty four episodes, because it's only semi serialized, 667 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: it's not like, well, I gotta sit down and watch 668 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: my homework. It's like blowing through four at a time 669 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: while I'm like half paying attention. You know, I maybe 670 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: have missed some scenes totally. That's interesting that you feel like, 671 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: So do you feel like when you are watching comedy shows, 672 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: other comedy shows that you're not working on, it feels 673 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: like homework. No no, I was talking about prestige drama homework, 674 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: but comedy is just it's more the serial serialized thing 675 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 1: where I there's so much TV to watch that people 676 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: will be like, well, you have to check out this 677 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 1: comedy show, and I'll watch it and like it, but 678 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: it will never occur to me to keep watching. So 679 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: why I thought Search Party was so effective of just 680 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: like give you the thinnest not that it's thin, but 681 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: just like just a little bit of a thread that 682 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 1: I want to watch the next one, rather than being like, okay, 683 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,200 Speaker 1: that felt that felt good. Anytime I do watch good comedies, 684 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: I enjoy them. I just mostly I'm like, I'd rather 685 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: watch this show about you know, a pile of dead 686 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 1: British children found you know in a rectory or whatever. 687 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: You know, I don't so fucking into When it was 688 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 1: on The Killing, Oh my god, that was the thickest, 689 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: darkest show you could ever imagine. It was truly like 690 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: and then that show would happen because it was it 691 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: was thirteen episodes whatever, they would just have three episodes 692 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 1: were being like, oh, you know, you know, like you know, 693 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:15,440 Speaker 1: when we found that like the pile of kid toes, 694 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: we thought that was probably the guy that has been 695 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 1: cutting off kids heads. It actually and that was just 696 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,720 Speaker 1: a separate, separate kid toe thing that's not really central 697 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: as kids are alive. And and by the way, here's 698 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 1: thirteen minutes of the mother from last season still heaving. Stop. 699 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: Remember remember all the deep grief we thought we at 700 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: least would move past that. We'll just come back around 701 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: to scream about you know, I love that. The height 702 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,720 Speaker 1: it was like the first two seasons was still based 703 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: on that first case of the girl, and then the 704 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,839 Speaker 1: third season was I think they took like a year 705 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:46,399 Speaker 1: off and then they came back and they were like 706 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: the heightened was fifteen times more dead kids. It was 707 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,439 Speaker 1: like you thought there was just one. No bitch, we're 708 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 1: killing a lot of kids. And we had to get 709 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: a bigger back co from Oregon to come clean out 710 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: the dead kids. We filled a swamp full a dead 711 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:05,319 Speaker 1: kid and some of the dead kids had kids, and 712 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: like their kids are underneath.

And actually that's the thing 816 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: I just discovered. That teacher knocking on my door and 817 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,799 Speaker 1: thanking me just as I finished is my thing. Hey, 818 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:46,320 Speaker 1: just we all very much. Yeah, it also used to 819 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,080 Speaker 1: be and I don't I guess it's because I would 820 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: like be thinking about weird stand up premises. Well, there 821 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,760 Speaker 1: was children around like they always used to park busses 822 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: on my street and around the corner that would have 823 00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:01,280 Speaker 1: these signs in the back that said um, like printed 824 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 1: out on paper taped to the back door window that said, 825 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 1: um no sleeping children inside. And I think it was 826 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 1: a thing of like just someone has checked, the bus 827 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: can drive away. There's not like we know all the 828 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:14,880 Speaker 1: kids are off the bus. We don't have a situation 829 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:18,200 Speaker 1: where it's like in the heat of a depot in Queens. 830 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,640 Speaker 1: Just like the idea of like that was like like 831 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: who would volunteer for that job?

So I don't wake them. 838 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:43,359 Speaker 1: You're welcome to wake them. That's actually a big part 839 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 1: of it. No, you can't wake they're angels because then 840 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 1: we won't know if they're sleeping. Were the sleeping So anyway, 841 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 1: I got fired because I kept putting up a sign 842 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: that said no sleeping angels, and they said, you have 843 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 1: to say no sleeping children angels.

Is like searching out more 857 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:35,879 Speaker 1: of a thing and being able to find a thing 858 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:38,320 Speaker 1: and knowing more about it and being a completist. In 859 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: this collection vibe, it's something millennial and I'm right on 860 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:45,320 Speaker 1: the edge. You guys get it.

But for you know, when 865 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 1: I first got into them, and like I guess maybe 866 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:05,879 Speaker 1: it was like the fourth, fifth, sixth grade. Um, I 867 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: was like always a super reader as a kid, Like 868 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 1: I was an only child. We did a lot of 869 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,480 Speaker 1: like road trips for my parents, like work and stuff, 870 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 1: and I could read in the car, so they library 871 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 1: books and books. They were always happy to like whatever 872 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 1: you need. But that was the first thing where I'm like, oh, 873 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 1: this is number two, and like you go in a 874 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,359 Speaker 1: certain Walden books and they have like one, seven, ten, 875 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 1: and fourteen, but it's like, oh, I've never seen six around. 876 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,000 Speaker 1: Like the idea of ordering online and all that stuff 877 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 1: didn't exist.

So 901 00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 1: there's a lot of things that came out of that. 902 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 1: That's a great one. Was that an entry point until 903 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: like you're liking more scary ship it? Weirdly it like 904 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:45,919 Speaker 1: for me.

It was just about the franchise. 907 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, and they were like I think it was 908 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,759 Speaker 1: definitely about getting into novels. They were page turners in 909 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: a way that not all chapter books. Y a chapter books, 910 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: I don't even need all that why it's almost younger 911 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 1: than that. But like a lot of times they weren't scary. 912 00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:07,040 Speaker 1: They're almost silly. But every two page chapter just ended 913 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 1: with like uh And then Shelly opened the closet and 914 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 1: there was a shark and you turn the page to 915 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: be like, actually, it was a stuff Doug left that 916 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: I forgot.

I think 922 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 1: letters are melting, or they wet or they sweating. I 923 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,359 Speaker 1: think that's kind of a big thing. I think they're gooey. 924 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 1: I think they don't think. I don't think it's more 925 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 1: more complicated than that.

And all Stein's on Twitter, I'm 1079 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:45,000 Speaker 1: sure he can correct this. Uh that for a lot 1080 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:47,200 Speaker 1: of like that series, he would come up with the 1081 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:51,880 Speaker 1: title in the cover image before the reverse engineered from there. 1082 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:53,920 Speaker 1: You know, like just this idea of like you know, 1083 00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:57,919 Speaker 1: the boy with the you know, wasp in his brain 1084 00:53:58,000 --> 00:53:59,959 Speaker 1: or whatever, but like and they just have like an 1085 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: age of like wasp eyes or something, and then like 1086 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:04,040 Speaker 1: be like, okay, I can imagine that, like a kid's 1087 00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 1: at camp and he gets whatever. Like I'm always very 1088 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 1: impressed by the business. The business you can pump them out. 1089 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:16,960 Speaker 1: But because sometimes I'm gonna say something, sometimes the content 1090 00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 1: of the books didn't live up to the art. I 1091 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:22,800 Speaker 1: mean it can't possibly, especially when that idea comes first. 1092 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 1: And I will say that, like part of this collector 1093 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 1: thing at birth in me was like the object, the 1094 00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:34,439 Speaker 1: physical object, and the hunt was as important to me 1095 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: in my fandom as the content. You know, Like I 1096 00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 1: I in middle school in early high school, I got 1097 00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: really into like Star Wars novels, like the expanded universe 1098 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,600 Speaker 1: before all the prequels can for you, you know, I 1099 00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:47,840 Speaker 1: I see that's another fandom. I like pulled my foot 1100 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:50,520 Speaker 1: off the like I'll see the movies, but I'm not like, well, 1101 00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:52,840 Speaker 1: I've got a delete thrawn out of my database, like 1102 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,600 Speaker 1: I live in a very casual way with that now. 1103 00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 1: But I liked um. I liked holding them. I like 1104 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:01,560 Speaker 1: the look of like it's trilogy and this like that. 1105 00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,120 Speaker 1: Even if the book was weird, I still was like, 1106 00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 1: I'm still gonna read it all. I'm still gonna put 1107 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:08,400 Speaker 1: it on the shelf, like I liked finding it and 1108 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: having it as much as you know, I was really hard, 1109 00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:14,400 Speaker 1: like I was like on the Star Wars website. So 1110 00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 1: it's very kind of and I know all about the 1111 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:20,000 Speaker 1: novels that extended the universe and everything. So it's hard 1112 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 1: to see the movies now because they've literally thrown that 1113 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,439 Speaker 1: all out, which is very confusing. Yeah, and I liked 1114 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,480 Speaker 1: some of the choices they had made back then. Lucas, 1115 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 1: yeah all that.

I think in the midst of everything else, 1204 01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,480 Speaker 1: she's putting a play out in writing screen like she's incredible. Really, 1205 01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:11,640 Speaker 1: Like there's some writing in the Harry Potter books that 1206 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:15,520 Speaker 1: is stunning, like when when when he died? When he 1207 01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:18,240 Speaker 1: dies and the ghost of the ghost of his last 1208 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 1: laugh still on his face when fred Fred Weasley dies 1209 01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 1: and then um, just like the whole imagery around Cedric dying, 1210 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,040 Speaker 1: Like how sudden that felt, and like that that just 1211 01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 1: felt like she's good, the whole chapter where he's where, 1212 01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:34,880 Speaker 1: where he's dead at King's crossed, Like do you perfectly 1213 01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 1: match up with my girlfriend's sister who is the biggest 1214 01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 1: Harry Potter So is my girlfriend, but the sister is 1215 01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:45,560 Speaker 1: the exact age. Actually I do perfectly match up you do. 1216 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 1: I never even thought of that. I was like, oh 1217 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 1: my god, that must have been unbelievable to get that 1218 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:52,840 Speaker 1: book every August or whatever legitimately start seventh grade legitimately 1219 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 1: did you read it as they came out. I grew 1220 01:00:55,760 --> 01:00:57,600 Speaker 1: up with them, but that one was so That's what 1221 01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 1: was so weird about it is it was like when 1222 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:03,720 Speaker 1: that the tone of the books changed, I almost didn't 1223 01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 1: notice because my kind of perception of of of like 1224 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 1: the dramatic sticks was also changing, like I felt like, 1225 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:13,080 Speaker 1: and then you read them back and that first book 1226 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 1: is genuinely written at a different reading totally well, but 1227 01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:19,919 Speaker 1: like they matched up for us towards the end because 1228 01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:21,320 Speaker 1: the last one came out when we were seniors in 1229 01:01:21,400 --> 01:01:23,920 Speaker 1: high school. I think that you're right, yeah, because the 1230 01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:26,760 Speaker 1: first one I read in fourth grade would have been 1231 01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:28,960 Speaker 1: a little bit younger totally, So they ended up matching 1232 01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 1: towards the end. And then like when the movies first 1233 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:34,440 Speaker 1: came out, and that's when they matched. When they cast 1234 01:01:34,520 --> 01:01:37,080 Speaker 1: the kids as the actors, they were the same, they 1235 01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:38,680 Speaker 1: were the same age as It was crazy, and I 1236 01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:41,439 Speaker 1: remember reading a reading like a casting breakdown or whatever. 1237 01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:43,960 Speaker 1: It was like only looking I don't know why this 1238 01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:46,840 Speaker 1: is coming out in British, only looking for British actors. Yeah, 1239 01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 1: it was like heartbreaking. And my dad said to me, 1240 01:01:49,360 --> 01:01:51,800 Speaker 1: you know what, if you worked hard enough, you could 1241 01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:54,720 Speaker 1: be Harry Potter. I was like, I don't think they're 1242 01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:57,280 Speaker 1: checking from me. Dad. He's like, if you worked hard 1243 01:01:57,360 --> 01:01:59,080 Speaker 1: enough and you put your mind to it, you would 1244 01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 1: be Harry Potter's casting guys. They're on your side. All 1245 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:06,160 Speaker 1: they want to do is find a good tape exactly. 1246 01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:08,800 Speaker 1: They don't know what they want until they see. But 1247 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:11,320 Speaker 1: wait now, I do want it. Before we got on, 1248 01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:14,000 Speaker 1: before we started the pod, we were having a really 1249 01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:17,080 Speaker 1: good conversation you guys about Mr Holland's Open and I 1250 01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 1: want to share one thing. Well, one thing is my dad. 1251 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:24,400 Speaker 1: We were watching Mr Holland's Opus and there's the character 1252 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:28,520 Speaker 1: of Rowenna, who is the teen girl that Mr Holland 1253 01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:32,560 Speaker 1: almost fucks, he fully and then he encourages her moving 1254 01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:35,120 Speaker 1: away to the second act, temptation of being like your 1255 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,360 Speaker 1: man with a kid and a wife, responsibilities and just 1256 01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,440 Speaker 1: but you got the student. It's just like, I mean, 1257 01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:40,840 Speaker 1: she's got something in her eyes. I mean there's a 1258 01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 1: spark and when she left the town. My dad had 1259 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:47,120 Speaker 1: a classic land which I only just recalled in this 1260 01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 1: conversation before, which was, let me tell you something, I 1261 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: don't think she makes it because I don't know anybody 1262 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:57,960 Speaker 1: out there named Rowenna, and what's like, like, does he 1263 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:01,240 Speaker 1: mean and he could mean both make it that if 1264 01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:05,160 Speaker 1: the character had made it, she'd be famous, be like, 1265 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 1: oh my god, this is from or that she in 1266 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:13,120 Speaker 1: some weird time loop. She the character makes it so 1267 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:16,800 Speaker 1: big that people are now naming their children after the 1268 01:03:16,920 --> 01:03:19,240 Speaker 1: fictional It's a weird world within a world. I don't 1269 01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:21,240 Speaker 1: know where his mind was existing at the time. I 1270 01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,080 Speaker 1: just remember he was like, well, she shouldn't have done that, 1271 01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:24,400 Speaker 1: because I would tell you something. She didn't make it. 1272 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:26,440 Speaker 1: We don't hear anyone named Roguanna, like as if she 1273 01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:28,840 Speaker 1: was supposed to be like a share Madonna. That's a 1274 01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:31,720 Speaker 1: classic Rich Rogers. I cannot work out the logic of that. 1275 01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:34,560 Speaker 1: This is I'm sure you guys don't watch this. Uh. 1276 01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:36,880 Speaker 1: I very much love the show Bosh uh. And it's 1277 01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:40,000 Speaker 1: based on these novels named Bosh. But in the novels, 1278 01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:43,120 Speaker 1: originally the character of Bosh is Rich because there was 1279 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:46,200 Speaker 1: a Bosch TV show based on a case of So 1280 01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:48,720 Speaker 1: the TV show starts and he's got a Bosch poster 1281 01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:50,280 Speaker 1: in his house and you're kind of like, okay, so 1282 01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:54,160 Speaker 1: there's a different Bosch TV show in the TV universe. Okay, 1283 01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,160 Speaker 1: I get it. But another weird thing about the novels, 1284 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 1: and they've sold, you know, a hundred million copies is 1285 01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:01,880 Speaker 1: The Lincoln Lawyer is the half brother of Bosh. It's 1286 01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 1: written by the same author. They also made a movie 1287 01:04:03,880 --> 01:04:07,200 Speaker 1: of The Lincoln Lawyer with Matthew McConnelly. Yes, and they 1288 01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:08,920 Speaker 1: do overlap in some of the novels. I guess I 1289 01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:11,560 Speaker 1: haven't read those, but in a recent Bosh book. I'm 1290 01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:13,680 Speaker 1: reading the book which is narrated by the actor who 1291 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 1: plays Bosh an audiobook, he calls his half brother Mickey 1292 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:22,920 Speaker 1: Holler the Lincoln Lawyer, and his half brother answers, uh hey, 1293 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:25,520 Speaker 1: like hey, little brother, alright, alright, alright, And then in 1294 01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:28,439 Speaker 1: the book it says his brother has taken to doing 1295 01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:31,960 Speaker 1: a Matthew McConaughey impression after they made a movie based 1296 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:35,280 Speaker 1: on him starring Matthew McConaughey. So like in now the 1297 01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:38,440 Speaker 1: universe of the Bosh novels, they there's the real Matthew 1298 01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 1: McConaughey movie, but it's nonfiction. It's nonfiction, and there's a 1299 01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:46,520 Speaker 1: Bosch TV show that's not this. It's like strip and 1300 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:48,280 Speaker 1: you know what that is? Also it's in the Oceans 1301 01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:51,680 Speaker 1: franchise now where there's Julia Roberts exists in the Oceans universe, 1302 01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:56,200 Speaker 1: but Anne Hathaway doesn't. But then meanwhile, fucking Daphne Kluger does. 1303 01:04:56,760 --> 01:04:59,800 Speaker 1: But then it's all, wait, okay, so you're saying, because 1304 01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:02,280 Speaker 1: I been seen all the Oceans movies, Julia Roberts the 1305 01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 1: actress exists in the Oceans universe, and Julia Roberts plays account. 1306 01:05:06,320 --> 01:05:09,160 Speaker 1: The big twist of the second movie is they keep 1307 01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:12,120 Speaker 1: referencing talking about I think her name is Trish or 1308 01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:15,040 Speaker 1: something cast you're going to pose as Julia Roberts, but 1309 01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:18,720 Speaker 1: being like, you know what we could do because test does, 1310 01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:20,400 Speaker 1: and everyone keeps being like she's not gonna do it, no, 1311 01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 1: and then they finally are like will you and they 1312 01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:25,720 Speaker 1: and You're like they must not be talking about this, 1313 01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:29,000 Speaker 1: and then it's like they are so like Bruce Willis 1314 01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 1: plays himself, it's like a whole because she happens to 1315 01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:37,160 Speaker 1: be her identical stranger. It's like, it's so because in 1316 01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:39,240 Speaker 1: any other movie where there are real celebrities in there, 1317 01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:42,120 Speaker 1: you can like make some logical you can you can 1318 01:05:42,160 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 1: suspend some disbelief and say, oh, every other celebrity accepted 1319 01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:48,040 Speaker 1: that the actors who are playing these people exist in 1320 01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:50,640 Speaker 1: this world. The only thing that would have made Oceans 1321 01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:55,320 Speaker 1: a better is if Anne Hathaway that's true. I think 1322 01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:57,160 Speaker 1: it would have made it so much funnier. And I 1323 01:05:57,720 --> 01:06:01,000 Speaker 1: already think that movie was great and huge amazing for her. 1324 01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:03,880 Speaker 1: Like I think, I think the public narrative on Ann 1325 01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:06,680 Speaker 1: Hathaway right now is like so positively down for because 1326 01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:09,360 Speaker 1: I like, she also got to play the I've only 1327 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:12,320 Speaker 1: seen half the movie. I'm sorry, but the heck, but 1328 01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:14,920 Speaker 1: she gets to play She gets to make fun of 1329 01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:17,560 Speaker 1: totally without having to be literal about it. She's not 1330 01:06:17,720 --> 01:06:19,960 Speaker 1: so indulgent that she's playing and Hathaway is a big 1331 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,280 Speaker 1: buffoon or or whatever public I and she's playing this 1332 01:06:22,360 --> 01:06:25,160 Speaker 1: like fake version. It's perfect. I think the way that 1333 01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:29,200 Speaker 1: the character was conceived and presented and performed would have 1334 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:33,000 Speaker 1: been such a funny comment on Anne Hathaway. I just 1335 01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:37,840 Speaker 1: think it. Soderberg would have taken that swings a little 1336 01:06:39,080 --> 01:06:47,680 Speaker 1: Gary Gary Garry Ross, Cooper, Ross, very Ross. How many carrots? 1337 01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:51,200 Speaker 1: Is it enough enough? She's very good, it's towards the delicious, 1338 01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 1: very good. Um Wait, we were having this conversation about 1339 01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 1: movies that unfailingly make his crap right. I was saying 1340 01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:59,440 Speaker 1: that Mr. Holland's Opus is one of two films that 1341 01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:02,560 Speaker 1: has a scene that I can access any time and 1342 01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:05,440 Speaker 1: like make myself overcome. And it's not a movie that 1343 01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:07,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, well, it's the most important movie to me 1344 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:12,280 Speaker 1: or the yes, we're Mr like like to win a 1345 01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:15,280 Speaker 1: fight with my girlfriend, you know, like a yeah. Mr 1346 01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:18,760 Speaker 1: Hans opens when he uh he discovers that his retirement 1347 01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:21,840 Speaker 1: ceremony is actually the first performance of his American Symphony 1348 01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:24,120 Speaker 1: and he stands in the current raises and it's all 1349 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:26,760 Speaker 1: his former students grown up and he chokes up Richard 1350 01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:31,600 Speaker 1: Dreyfussance and then Forrest Gump when at the end he 1351 01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:34,800 Speaker 1: meets Haley Joe Osmond and he asked Robin, right, um, 1352 01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:38,240 Speaker 1: is he smart or is he stupid? Like? And She's like, 1353 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,000 Speaker 1: He's one of the smartest boys in this class. That's 1354 01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 1: a really good one. I'll say mine is the culmination 1355 01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:52,120 Speaker 1: of Big Fish. When the father is dying and the 1356 01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 1: son has to tell him a story and basically he 1357 01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:58,480 Speaker 1: just reveals that like they had this great adventure to 1358 01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,600 Speaker 1: take him back to the river and then when they 1359 01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 1: get to the river to put the father in the 1360 01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:06,040 Speaker 1: water so that he can be the big Fish. Um, 1361 01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:08,640 Speaker 1: all his family and friends had were there waiting for 1362 01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 1: him and cheering, and none of them were sad. They 1363 01:08:11,080 --> 01:08:13,560 Speaker 1: were all so happy to see you. Oh my God. 1364 01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:15,520 Speaker 1: And just the music. I can think of it at 1365 01:08:15,560 --> 01:08:19,479 Speaker 1: any time if I want to cry, you can find 1366 01:08:19,520 --> 01:08:21,519 Speaker 1: me in my room listening to the big Fish track. 1367 01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:23,479 Speaker 1: So a question about that, because I don't remember that 1368 01:08:23,520 --> 01:08:29,280 Speaker 1: scene perfectly. Is anyone on camera crying? Because that's my 1369 01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:32,679 Speaker 1: big thing, Like if not that, any time I watched 1370 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:35,360 Speaker 1: someone cry, I cry. But like in those two movies, 1371 01:08:35,479 --> 01:08:38,040 Speaker 1: it is like the first time you see those characters 1372 01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:40,479 Speaker 1: like Buckle and like I was at a wedding this 1373 01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:43,000 Speaker 1: weekend and like looking at an aunt I've never met 1374 01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:46,679 Speaker 1: start to cry during bows when kick into me, Like 1375 01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:49,360 Speaker 1: it's like laughter, begetting laughter, Like I get very social 1376 01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:51,559 Speaker 1: about it. So it's interesting that you're big Fish has 1377 01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:53,920 Speaker 1: to be honest with you. They weren't crying, but they 1378 01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:56,200 Speaker 1: were very sure yes you know what I mean. And 1379 01:08:56,240 --> 01:08:57,880 Speaker 1: I think there's a shot there's a shot of Helen 1380 01:08:57,880 --> 01:09:01,120 Speaker 1: a bottom carter and she's like trying in of happiness, 1381 01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:03,439 Speaker 1: and I'm just like and I honestly, I'll tell you 1382 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:06,320 Speaker 1: what what what's doing it for me? There? The thing 1383 01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:11,400 Speaker 1: that I'm like keying into is the father son thing. Also, 1384 01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:14,080 Speaker 1: have you ever seen the movie? I often talk about 1385 01:09:14,080 --> 01:09:16,559 Speaker 1: this movie? Um, oh my god? Why am I not 1386 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:21,280 Speaker 1: able to think of Kira Sedgewick, Robert Downey Jr. Uh 1387 01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:26,360 Speaker 1: Uh sorry sorry? Um, oh my god, Oh my god. 1388 01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:28,840 Speaker 1: Heart and Souls. Heart and Soul, No, I've never seen it. 1389 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:34,040 Speaker 1: Heart and Souls is one of the like suddsist like 1390 01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 1: soapy kind of movies. It's like literally it's Alfrey Woodard, Um, 1391 01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:45,479 Speaker 1: Tom Sizemore, Uh, Kira Sedgewick and some other actor from 1392 01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:49,160 Speaker 1: that guy from this. It's just the movie in general 1393 01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:51,840 Speaker 1: is like they they're in a bus accident and they 1394 01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:55,280 Speaker 1: die and their souls are latched onto a young child, 1395 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:58,400 Speaker 1: Robert Downey Jr. And he starts to see them around. Wait, 1396 01:09:58,439 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 1: so this is super young Robert Downy Well, but he's 1397 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:03,960 Speaker 1: a child playing Robert Downey Jr. And then this this 1398 01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:06,760 Speaker 1: the parents start to realize that their kids like a 1399 01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:08,760 Speaker 1: little funked up because he sees these ghosts, but they 1400 01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:12,240 Speaker 1: can't see write them. So he is all he's all weird, 1401 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,640 Speaker 1: and the parents like get divorced and it's horrible, and 1402 01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:16,519 Speaker 1: we've got a whole crew of ghosts. He's got a 1403 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:18,519 Speaker 1: crew of ghosts that are like attached to him, and 1404 01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:21,080 Speaker 1: they don't know why. And so they when they say, 1405 01:10:21,160 --> 01:10:22,760 Speaker 1: we're kind of ruining those kids, like we have to 1406 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:25,479 Speaker 1: leave him. And so they make a conscious decision to 1407 01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:28,040 Speaker 1: all one time tell him we're going to leave you. 1408 01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:30,479 Speaker 1: And they're his best friends. And this is the beginning 1409 01:10:30,520 --> 01:10:32,479 Speaker 1: of the movie. So as they're all leaving him one 1410 01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 1: by one and Alfrey Ward is the last to go. 1411 01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:43,720 Speaker 1: Alfree is the queen. It's actually culture number four is 1412 01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:46,960 Speaker 1: the queen. And they all leave and this kid, this 1413 01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:51,920 Speaker 1: child actor is just crying weeping. This one from me 1414 01:10:51,960 --> 01:10:57,480 Speaker 1: but you need to see it also has Elizabeth shot Elizabeth. Yeah, 1415 01:10:57,479 --> 01:10:59,640 Speaker 1: it's really really really my god. But and then so 1416 01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:01,719 Speaker 1: then us go on from there. It's so the ghosts 1417 01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:05,799 Speaker 1: are then they're able to see him, but but he can't. 1418 01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:08,320 Speaker 1: So they essentially grow up with him, or they don't 1419 01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:10,280 Speaker 1: grow up them. They're there as themselves. But he grows 1420 01:11:10,360 --> 01:11:12,400 Speaker 1: up into Robert Downey Jr. And becomes like a douche 1421 01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:16,559 Speaker 1: and so then they hear to him again because they 1422 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:19,679 Speaker 1: realize they need him to help them do their unfinished business. 1423 01:11:20,439 --> 01:11:22,880 Speaker 1: And then the movie gets going. It's a really good movie. 1424 01:11:23,960 --> 01:11:27,000 Speaker 1: It's really good, and it's like weepy and like early nineties, 1425 01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:28,479 Speaker 1: like when they used to make movies like this. But 1426 01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:30,439 Speaker 1: Robert Downy Jr. You're so good. There's a lot of 1427 01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:34,160 Speaker 1: good scenes of like the ghost taking over his body, 1428 01:11:34,640 --> 01:11:36,960 Speaker 1: so he'll like take on the characteristic stuff like Hera 1429 01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:42,280 Speaker 1: and Alfrey and Tom Sizemore, who's like crazy. Were they 1430 01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:43,640 Speaker 1: were going to make that now, it would have to 1431 01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:48,920 Speaker 1: be faith based, like yeah, they're like, you know, Katherine 1432 01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:51,680 Speaker 1: Hegel and like another TV actor, and it would just 1433 01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:53,839 Speaker 1: be like, why isn't all the scenes in the daytime? 1434 01:11:56,280 --> 01:12:00,080 Speaker 1: People would make it more complicitive. Enjoy the movie. Does 1435 01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,040 Speaker 1: it exist in the vacuum that it currently exists? Is 1436 01:12:02,040 --> 01:12:03,960 Speaker 1: my recommendation. Do you have one of those movies but 1437 01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:05,800 Speaker 1: it's a weepy one for you? Yeah, but they're they're 1438 01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:08,160 Speaker 1: and but we were saying this before off off Mike 1439 01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:13,800 Speaker 1: that it's they're not prestigie films, but yes, but mine 1440 01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:16,920 Speaker 1: are so so basic and it's fine, but without fail 1441 01:12:16,960 --> 01:12:19,599 Speaker 1: and I did this before a scene where I had 1442 01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:24,000 Speaker 1: to cry, Um the fucking this like when just what 1443 01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:25,600 Speaker 1: I got you there on high maintenance?

I don't think so, honey. 1517 01:15:52,800 --> 01:15:57,000 Speaker 1: You died with Bo william I am absolutely not watching 1518 01:15:57,040 --> 01:15:59,160 Speaker 1: this last season now that you said what you said, 1519 01:15:59,479 --> 01:16:03,280 Speaker 1: I don't think so. Money. Please tell victims of assault 1520 01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:06,400 Speaker 1: that they are not as worthy as Kevin Spacey of 1521 01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:14,400 Speaker 1: a second chance. I could I could smell it on 1522 01:16:14,439 --> 01:16:18,240 Speaker 1: her for months before it came, this like thing of 1523 01:16:18,280 --> 01:16:20,719 Speaker 1: her saying I think everyone can be rehabilitated and should 1524 01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:25,560 Speaker 1: be given a seconds. I could smell she said she 1525 01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:28,439 Speaker 1: did not. She was very tight lipped about the whole 1526 01:16:28,439 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 1: thing and never came out with a statement. And then 1527 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:32,040 Speaker 1: she got a lot of praise for like being the 1528 01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:34,120 Speaker 1: one to spearhead the fact that like the show was 1529 01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:36,120 Speaker 1: going to continue, people were going to lose their jobs. 1530 01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:38,080 Speaker 1: But she could have done all that and said all 1531 01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 1: that without saying that Kevin Spacey can be rehabilitated, deserve 1532 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:44,599 Speaker 1: a second chance. Go ahead and think that in your 1533 01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 1: own time. Don't make a public statement about it up. 1534 01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:50,920 Speaker 1: Don't bring that opinion to the table at the seller. No, 1535 01:16:51,760 --> 01:16:54,000 Speaker 1: and you know that Robin Wright has been trying to 1536 01:16:54,040 --> 01:17:02,880 Speaker 1: get just because just because we gave you a little 1537 01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:04,559 Speaker 1: bit of props for being part of a scene that 1538 01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:08,120 Speaker 1: tugs at the ear the tear ducts of one Max Silvestre, 1539 01:17:08,520 --> 01:17:11,400 Speaker 1: not mean you're getting out Scott free in this episode 1540 01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:16,080 Speaker 1: of Last COI.

It's not gonna 1551 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:50,920 Speaker 1: be like minute one, they're just like the bus just 1552 01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:53,439 Speaker 1: hit them and then they just don't talk about it. 1553 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:55,960 Speaker 1: It's gonna somehow being mentioned in it. And like not 1554 01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:57,920 Speaker 1: that I think that show is pitched perfect. I've always 1555 01:17:57,920 --> 01:17:59,840 Speaker 1: found it very like binge able. But I'm like, how 1556 01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:02,280 Speaker 1: are you how are you guys gonna try to stick 1557 01:18:02,320 --> 01:18:04,920 Speaker 1: this landing? Like putting aside over trying to save jobs 1558 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:07,320 Speaker 1: or it was already it was her story anyway, I'm 1559 01:18:07,439 --> 01:18:10,959 Speaker 1: very curious and how people accept like I'm I'm the rationale. 1560 01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:14,760 Speaker 1: I don't want to just read the headline, you know, 1561 01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:16,720 Speaker 1: so I and I so often have just it's been 1562 01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 1: easy to just be like, well, I don't care about 1563 01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:20,000 Speaker 1: that person's work, so I don't need context on the 1564 01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:23,760 Speaker 1: bed put them in a bucket um. But this, I'm 1565 01:18:23,800 --> 01:18:26,599 Speaker 1: just like, how are you gonna do it? Prediction car bomb, 1566 01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:32,920 Speaker 1: but there's see, I think there's no way. I think 1567 01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:34,880 Speaker 1: it's like a gun in the mouth. I think there's 1568 01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:37,120 Speaker 1: no way that they can make the character a hero 1569 01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:40,439 Speaker 1: without like awkwardly, if they make him a martyr in 1570 01:18:40,479 --> 01:18:44,360 Speaker 1: the show, it's going to conflate mourning Kevin Spacey with 1571 01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:47,759 Speaker 1: Kevin Space's character with morning Kevin space the actor's career, 1572 01:18:48,520 --> 01:18:50,719 Speaker 1: like like it's gonna have to be like something terrible 1573 01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:54,479 Speaker 1: comes out, like murder, sue or whatever, and just like 1574 01:18:54,600 --> 01:18:56,400 Speaker 1: everyone tried. Like I think they're gonna do a meta 1575 01:18:56,479 --> 01:18:59,200 Speaker 1: swing where it's like them trying to cover up what 1576 01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:01,760 Speaker 1: he did to just like keep the country. I don't 1577 01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:05,840 Speaker 1: know that's me being optimistic, but it's a huge opportunity, Yeah, 1578 01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:09,439 Speaker 1: huge opportunity to kill the man. Yeah, to figure out 1579 01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:13,479 Speaker 1: the way. I mean, I think there's those scenes in 1580 01:19:13,520 --> 01:19:15,760 Speaker 1: movies where someone's on top of the train and then 1581 01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:18,080 Speaker 1: they look up and their head gets snapped off. Like 1582 01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 1: I think I think you could have a sort of 1583 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:23,599 Speaker 1: satisfying Dennis Hopper, phil Seymour Hoffman just take the top 1584 01:19:23,640 --> 01:19:25,439 Speaker 1: of the head off. Do you think with that crazy 1585 01:19:25,479 --> 01:19:27,960 Speaker 1: accent he does, it would feel right for an anivil 1586 01:19:28,040 --> 01:19:31,320 Speaker 1: to come follow him. I feel like that actually would 1587 01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:35,920 Speaker 1: feel right. He's doing barbershop. He's doing barbershop quartet, like 1588 01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:38,360 Speaker 1: the reunion of the Military Academy and like the anchor 1589 01:19:38,400 --> 01:19:41,240 Speaker 1: on top of the school like kill yeah, he is 1590 01:19:41,280 --> 01:19:44,719 Speaker 1: just Yo Semin Sam.
