Eight Daytime Emmy 0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:54.840 Award winning correspondent for Innovation Nation with Mo Rocca and 0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:58.440 the host of the Oologies podcast, which is one of 0:00:58.480 --> 0:01:02.240 the top twenty science podcast as in the world and 0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:05.560 it's amazing. You have to listen to Ologies. Every episode 0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:09.800 is an interview with an ologist of some kind. Um. 0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:12.039 So it covers a lot of different topics and it's 0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:14.600 really cool. And Al was also we've known it for 0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:16.280 a long time. We were excited to have her on 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:23.360 the podcast today currently blushing um. So we were going 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:27.959 to start out just welcoming Emily back from can Bonjeur 0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:31.440 A bon sir, I guess I should say for um 0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:34.480 for the Night callers out there, Emily how jet lagged 0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:37.720 are you? Oh, I'm I'm actually fine right now. Not 0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:40.760 gond Last last year I was jet lagged in a 0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:42.560 way I've never been in my life. That lasted for 0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:46.120 about an hour or not an hour a week, uh, 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:48.520 and I felt like I was underwater the entire time. 0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:51.120 Maybe last time it was an hour, but it felt 0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:55.000 like a week, because yeah, that's actually totally possible in 0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:58.280 my recollection of it. Well, Richard Lawson was also coming 0:01:58.320 --> 0:02:00.560 back from can and he was doing some really good 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:02.680 tweets about jet lag that we're like, the best way 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.000 to get through jet lag is to renounce the idea 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:08.880 of time. That's very true. No, I spent a lot 0:02:08.919 --> 0:02:12.280 of time with with Richard and and can can is. 0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:14.200 This is the third time I went, And it's kind 0:02:14.240 --> 0:02:17.120 of like a weird summer camp with more ball gowns 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:19.640 and you kind of have to have those people that 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:23.040 you hold onto is your pillars of sanity. And Richard 0:02:23.160 --> 0:02:26.120 was definitely one of those people for me there, so 0:02:26.320 --> 0:02:30.000 I'm I'm grateful to him as always. Um, but yeah, 0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:32.760 it was it was a very straight I did see 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:35.600 some movies I saw. I saw not quite as many 0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:38.320 as I think I usually do it's It was sort 0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:41.320 of an odd year, um at least in terms of 0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:44.600 American coverage of films, because there's there were a fewer 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:46.920 things that I think like a lot of American audiences 0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:48.960 care about, which is whatever. Black. I still saw some 0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:52.359 like good movies, but ones that are hard to like 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:56.440 tell people about because it's just like I just round 0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:58.520 a description of the Gas for No A movie, and 0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:03.440 I was like, that's you, guys, the Gas Barny movie 0:03:03.600 --> 0:03:05.760 was the best movie it can and I am so 0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:08.360 excited for you to see it. The description was like 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:12.160 a bunch of people get together, drink sangria and go insane. 0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:17.040 That's it. That's basically it. Uh it's but it's really incredible. 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:18.560 I mean, this is if if if I'm going to 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:20.600 talk about one movie on night Call, It's going to 0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:24.080 be this movie because it feels appropriate for us. It's 0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:25.400 like one of the only things that came out of 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:28.560 immediately was like on Twitter trying to hype up because 0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:31.919 I was so excited about it. Um he cast this. 0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:35.760 I think it had to be almost thirty dancers um 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.240 that are sort of this ensemble and they're led by 0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:43.200 Sophia Boutella of Uh, what Kingsman, she was the Mummy. 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:45.480 She's the New Mummy and the terrible New Mummy movie 0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:50.400 that nobody she's Yeah, it's a lady Mummy. Yeah she 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.800 has face tests shot as hell. Yeah. I would see 0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:55.280 bullowards and I was like, I don't want to see 0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:57.400 the movie, but I like her hair. So she is 0:03:57.480 --> 0:03:59.960 awesome in it. And the movie is garbage, but she's 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:04.680 amazing in it. But Climax, it's just like it kind 0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:06.880 of it's I also thought after I saw it, it's 0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:09.440 sort of like a mother for me because it involves 0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:14.880 like dance sequences and uh, psychotic freakouts and and LSD 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:18.000 and stuff, and it very much isn't that kind of 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.560 thing of like a thing that seems sort of normal 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:24.679 at first quickly turns into chaos and like children aren't 0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:28.960 risk and stuff like that. I think I told you 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:32.039 and tests privately, but I wanted debut this fact on 0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:36.000 the podcast because it's amazing. I interviewed Hero Murai, the 0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:39.479 director of This Is America the video, for The New 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:42.720 York Times, and he said that one of the main 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.880 things that inspired the This Is American video was the 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:52.320 end of Mother Mother Hive. Allie did you see mother? Y'all? 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:54.920 I haven't seen mummy. I haven't seen mother, I haven't 0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:58.040 seen anything else from the people. I need to break 0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:00.520 a femur or a collar bone and a ski accident 0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:03.960 just up. Do you want us to misery you? Is 0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:05.839 that what you're saying? Yes, I'd like you to break 0:05:05.880 --> 0:05:07.760 at least one of my ankles and just let me 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:11.120 chill out misery. But podcast dummy garage, as long as 0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:13.360 it's consentual, this would be a great place to missery somebody. 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:17.719 It would I like, maybe I would missery and somebody 0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:21.160 just to make them watch the entire Marvel cinematic universe. 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:26.840 So statistic, there's also a really plausible like misery podcaster 0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:30.000 scenario where somebody's like the Cappy Bates who like finds 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:33.920 Mark Marin and change them to the bed, makes me 0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:38.760 do a podcast talk to me to play Misty for me. 0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:41.359 I feel like I mentioned play Missy for me on 0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:43.400 this podcast a lot, because that's what all podcasting. It's 0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.279 really hard to not think of play Misty for me 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:48.120 when you're talking into a microphone being like your strange 0:05:48.240 --> 0:05:52.360 days and lonely nights. Guys. One thing that happened while 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:55.800 Emily was in Can that we texted about. She texted 0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:58.520 us about it from Can because it was it was 0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:03.720 an emergency situation. Agency was the met Ball debut of 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:07.040 Elon Musk and Grimes. I can't believe you guys didn't 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:10.159 talk about this when when we were off or when 0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:13.640 I was or considerate friends. Yeah. I mean I really 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:17.920 appreciate that because I feel like so much they're still dating, 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:21.479 you know, Are you sure? Have you checked today? Yeah? 0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:24.880 She changed. There was another story about changing her name 0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:27.559 to a lower class c. Bet Ali has feelings about 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:29.839 this as a person who cares about science and also 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:34.000 probably hates Delon. Well, here's the thing. So her name 0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:36.920 is Claire, but she changed her her first name because 0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:38.920 she's like, I've never felt like a Claire ever since 0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:40.880 I was born. I just didn't feel like a Claire. 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.560 And it's like anyone with the name Claire, I immediately 0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:46.400 assume you were born rich, like you have a trust fund. 0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:48.080 Your name of Claire, you have a trust fund? And 0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:53.640 Oliver being the male equivalent of Claire. Yes, Charles Hunter, Hunter, 0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:57.040 you're right. Hunter. My friend got me into the reality 0:06:57.120 --> 0:07:00.599 show Made in Chelsea, which is the British equivalent of 0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:05.320 the pilt and it's like TV zann X. Yeah, it's 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:08.040 so zannex to because everyone has British vocal fry and 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:12.800 so boring and posh. But literally the name, the main 0:07:12.880 --> 0:07:18.960 girl's name is Caggi Taggi dunlop, oh my god, the 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:23.120 name of the Elsie um. And she's very charming. She's 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:27.800 just like Elsie. She's like the down to earth rich um. 0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:30.560 But I feel like, if your name is Claire, she's like, 0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:32.840 I gotta get away from this. Let's let's go full 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.480 till the opposite way. Let's call myself Grimes. And then 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:37.960 I think she just decided to change her first name 0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:42.400 to the lower case ce italicized, which is the which 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:46.000 is like the Roman yeah, the word for light, which 0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:48.840 I saw. A friend of mine who's an astrophysicists tweeted like, 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:51.800 is this something cute? Because Elon Musk is like mc 0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:57.800 so mc and you know, equals what if. I don't know, 0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:00.200 I don't know, I don't know. But there was also 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:02.320 that there was that meme going around that was like 0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:05.240 this is what every kinky Polly couple looking for a 0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:11.880 third It's like totally true. They're totally into the choker, 0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:17.920 the like the the collering, it's all like it's so gross. 0:08:18.040 --> 0:08:20.760 I want none of it. But like, just don't let 0:08:20.840 --> 0:08:22.679 him keep pouring your glasses and wine and at dinner 0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:26.880 party he's just disgusting and he's like a terrible person. 0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:29.520 It's the real issue. But don't, Sugar, how do you 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:35.040 really feel? I feel like I'm like, if she has 0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:37.800 any friends who are smart, like I want them to 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:40.319 just like Slipper the stuff about the like union stuff, 0:08:40.320 --> 0:08:42.800 because that's what makes them so bad is that he's 0:08:42.840 --> 0:08:47.800 like anti union. People die in the factories and people 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:51.120 die in the self driving cars, and he doesn't want 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:54.360 to release the numbers of the safety statistics. Part of 0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:56.360 the hell world that we live in is it's like 0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:59.640 anyone you ever wrote like a positive like music review 0:08:59.640 --> 0:09:06.800 about because I come back to haunt you, I don't. 0:09:07.480 --> 0:09:11.320 I can't listen to music about Elon Musk. That's like 0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:13.600 Darcy had that tweet that was just like I am 0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:15.320 so mad. I just realized I'm gonna have to listen 0:09:15.320 --> 0:09:17.160 to love songs, but you don't have to listen to 0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:21.440 it when that happens, like, uh, friend of the Pod 0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:23.880 Alex Papaimis has said that the funniest thing about like 0:09:23.960 --> 0:09:26.960 Joanna Newsom songs is remembering that they're about Andy Sandberg. 0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:32.760 You know, well some of them are about Bill Callen. 0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:40.240 Uh no, I I so I actually Ellen and Grimes 0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:43.680 worked their way into a review of mine. It can 0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:46.880 because there's a movie that's really good that is like 0:09:47.040 --> 0:09:50.000 I think other people are way more like hyperbolically in 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:51.720 love with this movie than I am. But this Korean 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:56.160 movie called Bernie is based on Americami short story. But um, 0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:58.600 there's sort of this idea in it that's like played 0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:01.640 to really creepy effect of just this rich guy kind 0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:07.680 of like vampireing the youthful creative like desperate energy off 0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:10.480 of this kind of younger um in her case, like 0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:14.000 really poor girl and just like being amused by her 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:18.720 striving and wanting to be like communicate something and be 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.400 different and just sort of like watching her and like 0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:27.200 sucking energy. I was like, this is the most recent 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:29.160 example of us, even though I don't I don't I 0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:32.400 don't think that she is like, you know, hurting in 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:36.679 any way financially, but she's not that young. She's like 0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:40.560 almost thirty, I think, And it's not like quite. I 0:10:40.559 --> 0:10:42.679 mean he's he's older than I thought I think too 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.520 or something. I feel bad that what if she was 0:10:46.600 --> 0:10:48.360 what if she was born just into like a lower 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:53.160 middle class family that just like she siler, she wasn't okay? 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:54.720 But yeah, I had a friend that went to the 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:56.680 rent Fair this weekend and this is the first time 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:59.280 he's been sober ever, and so he's like, it's real 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:03.360 different when you're sober, usually just like blind drunk. When 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:05.800 he goes, and I was like, are you having fun? 0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:08.760 And he's like, it's very community theater and he's like 0:11:08.840 --> 0:11:14.640 everyone here looks like Elon Musk and Grimes. It's all true, 0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:19.120 and I gets nerdy renfair couples. I love her in 0:11:19.160 --> 0:11:22.280 the context of the Rent Fair, but something about this 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:26.800 which is like techno fascist rest, that's the problem. You 0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:33.280 no thanks, So you know she's gonna find his like 0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:36.520 basement full of dead wives, like any moment, they're all 0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:41.560 going to be robots though. Yeah, I mean, I just 0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:43.960 wonder if if amber Heard has reached out yet and 0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:47.200 if they've compared any notes. Look, you know, I hope 0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:49.400 this is all part of an Ocean's eight where it's 0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:55.120 like I like that idea. Everybody like, yeah, that's why 0:11:56.280 --> 0:11:57.640 I was like, I hope the Amber heard is like 0:11:57.679 --> 0:12:01.400 hoisting him for her girlfriend, and you know, do what 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:05.400 you have to do to divest guys. Speaking of goths, 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:10.479 we got a request to talk about the goths of Disneyland. 0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:13.760 And what better subject for a night call than talking 0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:16.800 about the goths of Disneyland. Combining all of our interests. 0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:21.320 The timely peg is that Disneyland is screwing over the 0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:24.920 goths of Disneyland because they don't care about them, and 0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:28.000 they don't care about fans of Disneyland obviously, and they 0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:31.120 just want to make all the Marvel stuff in the 0:12:31.200 --> 0:12:33.760 park and force it all, force out all the real people, 0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:36.840 to which my feeling is like, build a separate park, 0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:40.400 build a Marvel park, don't turn Disneyland into just the 0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:44.359 all Marvel and Star Wars park, because I personally don't care. 0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:48.320 Probably it's still Disneyland. They still have to pay to 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:51.439 get into it. It's not like it's not like a neighborhood, 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:56.320 not a neighborhood utopia. No, But you know, it's like 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:58.800 the things I find charming about it are like the 0:12:58.840 --> 0:13:02.840 fandoms and stuff like that fandom for Disneyland has always 0:13:02.920 --> 0:13:08.680 been like, by far the best Disneyland fandom. Why would Yeah, 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:11.960 I've never been a bad stay, but I did. I 0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:14.880 did grow up. I started dyeing my hair black at 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:17.280 like twelve, and my have very curly hair, and my 0:13:17.280 --> 0:13:19.719 sisters would sing Share songs to me to taught me, 0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:23.200 and I was like no. Every time I hear like 0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:25.200 if I could turn back time in like a store 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:28.280 or something, I just start getting flashbacks to um. I 0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:30.320 was just going to mention Share because I was going 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:34.880 to mention Moonstrack in the context Elon Muskin Grimes, because 0:13:34.920 --> 0:13:37.040 there's that power where it's like, why do men chase 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:40.800 young women because they were afraid of death? Yes, and 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:42.920 that's what I think is going on with Elon Muskin Grimes. 0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:45.120 I do think he is vampiring on her for her, 0:13:45.200 --> 0:13:49.640 like her non non Elon Muskiness. I bet they do 0:13:49.840 --> 0:13:53.160 dumb drinking blood stuff. I bet they do dumb boken 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:56.120 me and Grove like Orgies with the rich and powerful 0:13:56.160 --> 0:14:02.160 boring orgies. Orgies, Orgies. Ali, why were you so golf? 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:05.560 You know? I grew up in this town that was 0:14:05.840 --> 0:14:08.160 wealthier than we were, but had good schools and So 0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:11.120 there were people like like Hill the guard in my 0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:13.960 high school and I just transferred there in sixth grades, 0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:16.960 and I's like, you've never been to a Benetton store. 0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:20.040 You don't have anything Benettit Your kids like no, And 0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:22.200 so I think I just was like, well fucked, I'm 0:14:22.200 --> 0:14:24.400 not gonna I'm not going to assimilate that way. So 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:26.760 I'm just gonna go head the other directions. So I 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:29.840 was like, all right, I only where old military things 0:14:29.840 --> 0:14:32.960 I get from just from thrift stores. Before you know, 0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:35.760 it's a slippery slope. You're wearing a black eyeliners lipstick. 0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:38.720 You guys, how long? How long was this period of 0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:45.840 your life? Probably like thirteen to like two commitment. I know, 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:47.960 I went to l A and was like, oh, I 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:50.840 guess it doesn't work here. It's just is the best 0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:53.160 place to be a golf I didn't know that I 0:14:53.200 --> 0:14:56.560 didn't find my people yet. I I remember I drove 0:14:56.600 --> 0:14:58.440 down to like go to Helter Skelter a couple of 0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:01.200 times when I was like in college, but I never 0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:03.440 went to a bad day, but it always I found 0:15:03.440 --> 0:15:07.360 it very endearing that so many goths would congregate in 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:09.880 the daylight, because that is not of course that's not 0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:13.960 so many parasols. Yeah. I love that picture of the 0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:17.800 Cure at the beach. I've never seen it. It's so funny. 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:19.720 They're the Cure, but they're at the beach and they 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:24.400 look so uncomfortable. I think it's amazing. Yeah. Yeah, And 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:26.640 that to me is like the so called so cow goth, 0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:28.200 because I'll go I think there is a thing where 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:30.560 people go in this beach goth direction where you're like, 0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:34.200 I'm going to wear all the clothes because who expects 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:36.720 that in a hundred degree weather, at least of all 0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:40.040 you wearing all the clothes. That's what I mean. It's 0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:42.840 hard to be GoF here because it's like what do 0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:45.960 you do? Like the black tank talk, just like pastel goth. 0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:47.960 I mean, my real the real reason I could never 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:50.440 be the go because I tried. I tried in seventh grade. 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:52.280 I was like, I'm gonna be goth, but I like, 0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:55.120 I don't like wearing black, And every time I wear black, 0:15:55.200 --> 0:15:56.920 I'm like this is I always feel like I'm gonna 0:15:56.920 --> 0:15:59.200 have to go to a coral performance. Yeah, there's some 0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:01.560 of that. I mean, I was like a closet goth 0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:04.200 kind of in a very literal sense, like I had 0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:06.600 a closet that had a bunch of goth stuff in 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:09.960 it that was no, by no means my daily wardrobe. 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:14.040 But everyone WoT I did have a goth closet. I 0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:17.240 had like knee high lace up boots that were like 0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:20.120 pointy and had like a heel that I couldn't walk in. 0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:24.920 I had all these like black petticoats and like, uh, 0:16:25.320 --> 0:16:28.680 like anything that my grandma had that I could take, 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:31.400 like inherited from her that was black. I would take 0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:34.880 so all this sort of like decrepit lacy ship and 0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:36.880 every once in a while I would have a goth day, 0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:41.040 which was always a great uh source of self expression. 0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:43.200 I think I wanted to be able to commit more 0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:44.960 to being a goth, but I also wanted to like 0:16:45.600 --> 0:16:49.200 do other things too. But gods hate Halloween just because 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:50.400 there are a lot of people who are like looking 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:53.880 gods today and you're like every day And it was 0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:55.960 always like I remember I was in college, my first 0:16:56.000 --> 0:16:58.400 year of college, and I can't walked into my dorm 0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:01.600 room and my not goth roommate was wearing all of 0:17:01.680 --> 0:17:04.280 my clothes and she's like from and Louena, I'm you, 0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:11.240 but sexy, like it was very it's rude. She ended 0:17:11.320 --> 0:17:14.720 up not being a great roommate, but shocker, I what 0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:18.439 an assholet but sexy, like I know, I know. I 0:17:18.520 --> 0:17:21.200 was like, well, I wasn't virgin, and I did say 0:17:21.240 --> 0:17:23.160 magic and gathering a lot, so she had a point. 0:17:23.320 --> 0:17:26.800 I was in the way I were a lot of 0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:29.320 Nobody got laid more in college than the people who 0:17:29.359 --> 0:17:32.359 played magic the Gathering, at least at our calls. The 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:35.760 Larbers had like the biggest sex scene. They were all 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:38.119 every weekend too. It was like, you have no plans, 0:17:38.119 --> 0:17:41.920 but the Larbers do. They're not invited. That's exactly what 0:17:41.960 --> 0:17:45.240 you lartin was like the most uninhibited thing you can 0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:47.040 do in public in a group. I feel like it's 0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:49.640 a really good precursor to sex. It's also the thing 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:52.480 where Polly people sometimes are just like talking really loudly 0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:54.959 about all the stuff they do, and you're like, this 0:17:55.080 --> 0:17:57.280 is gross to hear about. I don't want to really 0:17:57.320 --> 0:18:01.120 think about you guys all fucking like sorry, it's fine 0:18:01.160 --> 0:18:04.280 that you do it. But I do feel though, like 0:18:04.400 --> 0:18:07.840 but with bad stay, I feel very proud of them 0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:11.240 that they didn't organize that around Halloween, like Halloween is 0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:14.919 for amateurs. We're doing this in the spring. And also 0:18:14.400 --> 0:18:18.120 it was toward June, right, which is like June gloom happened, 0:18:18.600 --> 0:18:21.800 but they stopped organizing it, right. No, what happened was 0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:25.600 they don't have the money to keep the like the stuff, 0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:28.840 the bonus stuff going. They still have it basically where 0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:31.640 it's like the day, but they did this whole like 0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:35.680 fair around it where people could sell all their like oh, 0:18:36.000 --> 0:18:41.680 Haunted Mansion art and stuff and kitchy Disneyland goth stuff. 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:44.679 So sad they're gonna have to don's Very Farm, you know, 0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:47.320 I mean that's very I was gonna say that's way 0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:50.440 better for god. Very Farm is the goth is placed 0:18:50.480 --> 0:18:55.200 on it's so it's actually awesome. And I interviewed Alvira there, 0:18:55.280 --> 0:19:00.320 and I went and saw Elvira there. It's amazing and 0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:02.399 she's like the ultimate like so cow goth. And then 0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:04.760 when I interviewed her, like she was like, I used 0:19:04.760 --> 0:19:06.640 to have a really goth house that was all like 0:19:07.000 --> 0:19:10.600 spider stuff everywhere and like just you know, dark and gloomy, 0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:12.960 and she's like, and now I have like a beautiful, 0:19:13.040 --> 0:19:16.760 airy like California home with like little devils everywhere and 0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:19.720 I was like, oh, California goth and she was like, yes, exactly, 0:19:19.760 --> 0:19:22.520 Like that's so maybe they need to do Goth Scary 0:19:22.560 --> 0:19:27.080 Farm or something, or Goth's Ferry Farm. Halloween Horror Knights 0:19:27.160 --> 0:19:30.840 is amazing. I've never I have okay, I've never been, 0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:32.480 and I thought I was too scared to go, and 0:19:32.560 --> 0:19:34.480 then I went and it was so fun. I didn't 0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:36.520 even do any of the mazes. I just walked through 0:19:36.520 --> 0:19:40.359 the scare zones, which is like they just pump horror 0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:43.359 fog at your people come up behind you and go 0:19:43.520 --> 0:19:47.040 like mull um, and it was really fun. I can 0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:49.920 appreciate it, even though it's like, really not my pleasure 0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:54.159 center to be touched by people. They don't touch you, 0:19:54.359 --> 0:19:57.600 that's that's always they touch you, but they get so close. 0:19:57.960 --> 0:20:00.480 They get so close, but they're so indie it is 0:20:00.520 --> 0:20:04.760 really community. I don't know. I went to the Haunted 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:07.800 hay Ride last year in this scary clown with a 0:20:07.920 --> 0:20:11.520 chainsack but got right in my face and the number 0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:14.199 when he looked like zac Alfanakis, which was adorable. I'm 0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:16.960 not scared of you. You look amazing, and he had 0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:22.000 such fresh breath that it ruined it so minty, like 0:20:22.080 --> 0:20:25.720 you need to smell like lentils and call really scared 0:20:25.720 --> 0:20:28.439 of you don't like that, you know. So I was like, 0:20:28.840 --> 0:20:30.919 I heard it was scary. Though I heard that that 0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:32.800 one I almost took my five year old and I 0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:36.520 was like, no, what am I doing. He's afraid of coraline, Like, 0:20:36.560 --> 0:20:41.280 I'm not on the show him that it's pretty scary. Actually, yeah, 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:43.960 the button eyes are scary. There's it also is like 0:20:43.960 --> 0:20:55.440 a scary concept. I mean, coraline is frightening.

I was very briefly GoF in I 0:21:52.240 --> 0:21:55.040 think seventh grade and I but I was. It was 0:21:55.160 --> 0:21:57.960 just aesthetically GoF. So I dyed my hair block in 0:21:58.600 --> 0:22:01.680 my bedroom, like the bathroom that was attached to it, 0:22:01.760 --> 0:22:04.280 so my parents couldn't find out. And then they saw 0:22:04.320 --> 0:22:07.600 the next obviously they found out and they were like yikes. 0:22:07.680 --> 0:22:09.679 And I would like slick back my black hair and 0:22:09.720 --> 0:22:12.720 I had like almost no eyebrows. I was just putting 0:22:12.760 --> 0:22:14.679 it out front because they made at my school, they 0:22:14.680 --> 0:22:18.440 made us there was like compulsory um, team sports and 0:22:18.720 --> 0:22:22.040 long days and just not my vibe at all. So 0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:24.560 I think I was just kind of advertising like I'm 0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:28.280 not into any of this, you know, besides outfits. What 0:22:28.359 --> 0:22:31.080
