1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: Okay, the theme song's not going to play yet because

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: I want to tell you that this episode, well, we

3
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: were supposed to rerun an episode. We do that on

4
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 1: occasion for whatever reason, and I thought, why not play

5
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: a new ish episode. This is from the Patreon you know,

6
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:19,360
Speaker 1: usually these are behind the paywall, but I'm feeling very

7
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:21,919
Speaker 1: generous and so we're going to play the episode, a

8
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,439
Speaker 1: recent one with Brendan Scanel. It's wonderful. Hopefully it'll be

9
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 1: a little taste for you. We're in the backyard. This

10
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: is kind of what we're doing behind the paywall at

11
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 1: patreon dot com slash. I said, no gifts, and now

20
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: very spoiled by mother nature, and the birds are in

21
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 1: the trees. The children are screaming at the elementary school

22
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: I'm in total control of my life and no one

23
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: can say otherwise. Everything is going as smoothly as ever

24
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: and the future is right. Is there anything that's happened?

25
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 1: I had a cob salad last night. If you haven't

26
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: had one recently, get into it. But I think we

27
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: should we should do the episode. I love today's guest.

28
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,080

Speaker 4: There is a light, even if you can't hear it

35
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 4: in his voice, there is a twinkle.

36
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,480

00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 2: I'm so impressed by their devotion to you. I love them.

49
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 2: They're great people, right, somebody had come in from Omah.

50
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: You have people try. I mean that to me is

51
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: always like I just people are so wonderful, And I

52
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: think I'm a bad fan of the things I.

53
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 2: Like because you don't show up.

54
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: I won't travel across the city. No, I need to

55
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 1: be better about this.

56
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 4: When's the last time you came to one of my

57
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 4: comedy shows. You're a fan of mine, and yet I

58
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:18,520
Speaker 4: don't think you've ever seen me.

59
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: Welcome to Los Angeles, Welcome to Los Angeles. It actually

60
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: is so shameful that comedy people don't go see comedy

61
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: people more often. I mean, like, I get it, but

62
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: I find you deeply funny. Thank you in person and

63
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 1: as a stand up. And yet what am I doing

64
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: this is how like I think I've seen a total

65
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: of three of my friends perform five. In my defense,

66
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: I'm not a stand up. Like you've probably seen most

67
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: of your friends before.

68
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 2: I've seen most of my friends.

69
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 4: I've seen my friends bomb, I've seen my friends succeed.

70
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 4: I've seen some of my friends get so famous and

71
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 4: it changes them.

72
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 2: They get nervous in public, and I'm like, no, one's

73
00:03:58,480 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 2: looking at you, no one.

74
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: No one's really famous anymore, not enough to be nervous.

75
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 4: Right, But then you will be with somebody and like

76
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 4: heads will turn sure, and that's exciting because I like

77
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 4: to think that they're turning at me.

78
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just assume they're for you.

79
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: Right, You don't know, you don't know, you have no idea,

80
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: no idea. But yeah, you came to the Chicago show.

81
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: You brought me some used food?

82
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 2: I did. I brought you leftovers. Yeah, that was such

83
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 2: a great show. The Den, the Den.

84
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: I loved the Den. I loved the whole vibe. I

85
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: wasted my time in Chicago.

86
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 2: Right, you didn't do anything.

87
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: I did nothing except for go to a bakery and

88
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: then eat at small Cheval every meal?

89
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 2: Is that the burger place?

90
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,799
Speaker 1: Okay, they've got like kind of a more casual version

91
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 1: of it that was near my hotel, and it just

92
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 1: wasn't I didn't have the energy.

93
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 2: Cheval is horse right? It is? Wait? I think it?

94
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: Wait? Is that true? Cheval means horse that's in fret, right,

95
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: and the French are famous for eating horse right exactly?

96
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: That's a date? Is that?

97
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 2: Wow?

102
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 1: That's a good question. I think we've got a good

128
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 4: I went off the horse like about every eighteen months

129
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 4: to two years. It's like, ooh, like maybe when we're

00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 4: a bunch of the puppies booked a shore excursion where

162
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 4: they went on horses in mask in their masks. There

163
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 4: was a bunch of puppies on the horses and you know,

164
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 4: God bless.

165
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 1: The way reality is just you really.

166
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 2: Can't just live whatever life you want.

167
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 4: You.

168
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 2: I grew up Catholic, you grew up Mormon.

169
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 4: Think of all the rules, why you were supposed to behave,

170
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 4: how everyone was supposed to think about you, how everyone

171
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 4: was supposed to perceive your.

172
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 2: Family six by six blocks you lived in.

173
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 4: Completely fake puppies are on horses in Point of Iarta.

174
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 4: There are no rules.

175
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:38,240
Speaker 1: Did you see any in your audience?

176
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 2: You know, I try not to look my audience in

177
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 2: the face. Just performed directly over their heads. I actually

178
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 2: did not clock any puppies.

179
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: Is so distracting.

180
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 4: You know, the shows were somewhat late. They were at

181
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 4: like ten and eleven per minute. Should get that the

182
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 4: puppies were already asleep.

183
00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,680
Speaker 2: They get so tired.

184
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 1: Did you do any excursions while you were on the crew.

185
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 4: I didn't leave the boat. I was on eight days.

186
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 4: Did not get off the boat.

187
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 2: There were four different port stops. You were in jail.

188
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 4: I was committed to being on this ship. Well here's

189
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 4: what was nice during the port moments. A lot of

190
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 4: people get off the ship, right, so you kind of

191
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 4: have the ship to yourself.

192
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: It's like no parents, right, quiet right.

193
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 2: All the restaurants you can eat at them.

194
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 4: Whenever you wanted the gym, you know Bridger buff Then

195
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 4: you think.

196
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 2: That was the best time to go to the gym?

197
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 2: Was time?

198
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I I assume on a gay cruise the gym

199
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: is just a nightmare.

200
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 2: I woke up the.

201
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 4: First day at seven am, being like, you know, all

202
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 4: these party people are going to be, you know, not

203
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 4: awake at Not true.

204
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 2: It was packed.

205
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: That should be Behalf of a gay cruise is just

206
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 1: a gym facility.

207
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 2: Right, I agree? It wasn't big enough. Wow, I'm not

208
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 2: a cruise but you have been on one.

209
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: I have been on one. I just like the idea

210
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: of going to a port and then just like going

211
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: to what is essentially like a mall and then having

212
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: to get back on the boat and being like, oh,

213
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 1: there's other stuff there that I could have seen.

214
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, I it just wasn't for me. I was really

215
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 4: committed to being Oh beautiful bird just flew into this.

216
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: Oh yoh look at it.

217
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 4: Oh it'd be fun if gay guys were like, I'm

218
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 4: a birdie, you know, and they were like little birds

219
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 4: with their little they had their claws on, because I

220
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 4: think the idea of being a puppy is that, like

221
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 4: life is.

222
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 2: So confusing and confounding and overwhelming, and don't you just

223
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 2: want somebody to scratch your ears and call you a good.

224
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 1: Boy, tell you what to do right, and be.

225
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 4: Like get over here, a little guy, I love you,

226
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 4: and be showered with affection.

227
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: And so what would a birdie be? Someone just throws it?

228
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, throws a towel over your cage.

229
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you calm you down.

230
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: I don't know what else? What else do you do

231
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: with a bird? I guess maybe it's like more of

232
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,960
Speaker 1: a like a voyeuristic thing. You have people watching you, Yeah,

233
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: major binoculars.

234
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 2: Oh yes, and you sort of like do your little mating.

235
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: Ritual right to a lot of squawking, shrieking.

236
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 2: Showing your what's coleoqula? What is coloqula? Isn't that like

237
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 2: a word for a butthole? I've never heard a bird butthole.

238
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: It's very close to Caligula. Maybe that's what I'm thinking

239
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: of the Roman Emperor.

240
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 2: Let's go Roman, Let's go Roman Empire, Let's go school.

241
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: Is that true?

242
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 3: Now?

243
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 1: Like, is that? I'm pretty sure Caligula was kind of a.

244
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 2: Decade or maybe yes he was like nero.

245
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, so this is where we.

246
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 2: Have a mad king. Now can this podcast be political?

247
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,079
Speaker 1: Don't get me started. We should reveal now we are

248
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: both Trump floaters. Yes, we're behind the payball right now.

249
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 4: I just don't get I drove here. This was a

250
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 4: jump scare on your street. Is a car with a

251
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 4: Kamala exclamation mark bumper sticker still on it, And it's like,

252
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 4: can can you just get a little razor blade and

253
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 4: just scratch that thing off so that I'm not screaming

254
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 4: inside when I see it?

255
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,839
Speaker 1: That car is really interesting because it had every bumpersticker

256
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 1: from every Democratic candidate on it at once. Okay, that

257
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 1: wasn't sure what the endgame was.

258
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 2: That's somebody who's responding to all the texts.

259
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 1: You know, rather than saying stop and report.

260
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 4: Spam, stop, stop stop. I can't stop fast enough. Where

261
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 4: they're selling my number down the.

262
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: River, I don't know. I don't know who the first

263
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: person was that I gave my number two.

264
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 4: Sometimes my car will start reading one of those texts,

265
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 4: you know, it'll be like new text from my No.

266
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 2: Number, and I'll click it and it'll be like, how,

267
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 2: well it's happened again.

268
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 4: I'm Monica Lafontaine from Boise and they're coming for me.

269
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 2: Thankfully.

270
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 4: You can give me five dollars and I won't kill myself.

271
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: I just like.

272
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 2: Stop.

273
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: This is essentially a ransom text.

274
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 2: Well they've caught me again. I'm in the cage and

275
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 2: they've covered it with the blanket.

276
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: Birdie culture is not what you think it is. Oh No.

277
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: The thing that I'll get on voice text occasionally is

278
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: Jim and I will send back in fourth hour connections

279
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 1: results from the New York Times game, which are like

280
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: five yellow squares five and it will read one yellow square,

281
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 1: one yellow square, one yellow square. It's like, okay, stop,

282
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: it needs to be able to recognize things that don't

283
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: need to be read alone.

284
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it needs it needs to be better.

285
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: We do have a two houses down I'll speak quietly,

286
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: a trumper who his wife has left him heat. The

287
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: police have gone into his house with their guns trained.

288
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: I looked on the app and it said somebody had

289
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: said that there was somebody running around.

290
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 2: With are you next door? Is this the app?

291
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: This was there's another one hmmm, some crime because I

292
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: was like, what's going on? And the report was somebody

293
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: had a mattress or a bed comforter over their head

294
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: and was running around. So I'm not sure what is

295
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: going on? And I see the guy on occasion terrifying. Yeah,

296
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 1: so I'm like, you know, people, there are a lot

297
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: of weird la murders. Oh, I'm not that far from

298
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: this person. I hope he's not a listener.

299
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 4: Maybe he was just trying to put his duvet cover on.

300
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 4: We know how hard that, especially if with how small

301
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 4: we are, we can get caught in there.

302
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 1: Then you're stumbling around the house.

303
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 2: Right, it's not in a handkerchief.

304
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: Oh well, I think we should look. I've delayed long enough.

305
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: We should get into something else. I didn't want to

306
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: talk to you about you put on the podcast twice before,

307
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 1: once over, Zoom, once live, so obviously the rules were

308
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 1: a little bit blurrier than the podcast is called. I

309
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: said no gifts, right, so I was a little surprised.

310
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 1: I was genuinely looking forward to having you here today.

311
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: That kind of fell apart when you came into the

312
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: backyard holding but from where I'm sitting looks like a gift.

313
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 4: It is, unfortunately okay. And I never show up anywhere

314
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 4: empty handed?

315
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 2: Do you ever host? And people just show up and

316
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 2: they tacky? Don't even bring a candle, bring a box

317
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 2: of Lacroix's sake. I mean, I know you don't drink.

318
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 4: I don't drink anymore, and so I'm always bringing nay everything.

319
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: This is how I am, you know, juice, some sort

320
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: of thing that I can hold in my hand and

321
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: carry around the party.

322
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,320
Speaker 2: A diffuser that I don't want.

323
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: That's a good idea.

324
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 2: Oh I got a closet full of crap and bags.

325
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 2: Do you save bags?

326
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: Is that bags?

327
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 4: Like?

328
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 2: I am as opposed to one like if I get it.

329
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 4: If I buy something and I'm like, oh, I might

330
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 4: need to give a gift later, I'll save them.

331
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 2: I'm in a Madewell bag right now.

332
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 1: Yes, I save so many bags, especially because of this podcast.

333
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 2: Okay, so I have too some things for you. You'll

334
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 2: want to get the box first. Pulling a box out,

335
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 2: I thought about you immediately. This is so me.

336
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: Yes, it's the Joker, and let's be very clear, the

337
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: Heath Ledger Joker of course, Bobblehead, Bobblehead.

338
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 2: I think you know.

339
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 4: I went out of the closet okay, like I do

340
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 4: the one on West Hollywood because there's the weirdest crap there.

341
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 4: Oh and I bought this months ago and it's just

342
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 4: been in my car and I knew at one point

343
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 4: I would need it if I got accident, and they

344
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 4: were like, he's dead. And also there's a Joker bobblehead

345
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 4: in his trunk.

346
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: Is I guess the brand is head Knockers. I've never

347
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: heard of this head Knockers.

348
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:21,959
Speaker 4: Knockers, and it's two things men love head and knockers.

349
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,400
Speaker 1: So this is a very calculated name.

350
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 2: This is I wonder if it looks guy stunning.

351
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it says it's hand painted, so obviously it'll

352
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 1: be going on a mantle or something.

353
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 2: This thing has got to be. How old do you

354
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 2: think this is? That was two thousand and seven.

355
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: That was two thousand, Yeah, I think seven or eight? No, yeah,

356
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight, right, and this probably came around

357
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: the same time.

358
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 2: Hm.

359
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 1: Although he's you know, been, he's kind of an evergreen

360
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 1: joker at this point for lunatics.

361
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 2: I actually I never saw the new.

362
00:17:55,920 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: Jokers, all the new ones. Yeah, wow, this is brand new.

363
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 2: This is wow, this is mint.

364
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:04,879
Speaker 1: Oh, it looks like it has a neck brace on

365
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: or it looks like a gorgeous little stole listener. It's

366
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: uh currently has some styrofoam hanging around its neck, which

367
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 1: actually makes perfect sense for this product. Let me look

368
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 1: at that. It's kind of beautifully made. That's what this

369
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: is like.

370
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,159
Speaker 4: Actually sort of your vibe right now, It's like, I

371
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,119
Speaker 4: cannot believe that this is my career.

372
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:37,159
Speaker 1: Look at this. It's standing on a little, uh playing card.

373
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: Look at that? Did you? I'd like to know what

374
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 1: your experience was seeing this movie.

375
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,959
Speaker 4: I think I loved it. I'm I'm sure I loved it.

376
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,719
Speaker 4: I'm sure I actually like those, Chris Nolan ones.

377
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 1: I liked the first one. I haven't seen it in years,

378
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 1: of course not. I liked this second one up until

379
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 1: there's like a final third of the movie where it's like, oh,

380
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:00,919
Speaker 1: I saw the movie was going to be over like

381
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: forty five.

382
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: Minutes ago, and they kill Maggie Jillen Hall.

383
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, once Maggie's off screen, I agree.

384
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:06,360
Speaker 2: Well.

385
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 4: Also in the first one, it's Katie Holmes and they

386
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 4: do that thing where they're like, and here she is,

387
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 4: the same girl. It's good to see you, Bruce, who

388
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 4: I've known forever, and you collectively as an audience member,

389
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 4: if you're watching them back to back to back, have

390
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 4: to be like, that's the same girl, different actress, same girl.

391
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: She's been through a lot. Yes, it's I mean like

392
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 1: kind of an aunt viv on fresh Prince right. They

00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: kind of knew it a new woman, Thank you, new aunt?

00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 2: What new aunt?

395
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 4: Why aren't we pitching that's a great new aunt?

396
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 1: Oh where did this aunt come from? We thought we

397
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: knew all of our aunts. Or maybe it's k n

398
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 1: e w aunt. We thought we knew aunt.

399
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 2: You knew an aunt?

00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 4: You new aunt?

402
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: That's classic. You did you grow up saying aunt oront aunt?

403
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 2: I did?

404
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, I said aunt too, And I feel so trashy

405
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: when I say aunt.

406
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 4: Now my uncles all sound like that SNL Chris Farley,

407
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 4: like de bears, oh s, Brendan, How is La? How

408
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 4: is it out there? A bunch of freaks and weirdos?

409
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 4: And when I first moved there, I'd be like, actually,

410
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 4: everyone's really nice. And now I'm like, ah, everyone's crazy,

411
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 4: a bunch of puppies.

412
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: Freak. Yeah. More and more I'm like, well, actually, I

413
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: think I've isolated myself within my friend group at this point,

414
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,880
Speaker 1: which is probably bad for my career. But I'm meeting

415
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 1: less and less psychos more observing them online and hating

416
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 1: them and being jealous of their career.

417
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 4: Oh sure, Oh you know what happens when I experienced jealousy, Well,

418
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 4: I just even dear friends of mine, I just mute

419
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 4: their stories because it activates ugly feelings. Bless you, You've

420
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 4: been muted for years.

421
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 2: Why don you think I'm never responding?

422
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I do a lot of muting stories, yes,

423
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: but only I'm happy for real friends' success. I genuinely

424
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 1: am I'm there's jealousy, of course, but I generally won't

425
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:30,439
Speaker 1: mute those people. But if they're one degree off of

426
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: being a real friend, whoop, you're gone from my life.

427
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 2: That makes sense to me.

428
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 4: And it's really just it's an act of self care, true,

429
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 4: and trying to protect my relationship and friendship with that

430
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 4: person and my protect my happiness for them, right, and

431
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 4: not be beset by ugly.

432
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: Feelings and a little revenge. Oh sure, like I want

433
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: them to notice I've stopped.

434
00:21:56,080 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 4: I can't see you ever acting on revenge as a

435
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 4: revengeful feeling.

436
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 2: I some people are just not revengeful.

437
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,399
Speaker 1: I don't even know what revenge would look like.

438
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 2: I think your testoster it's too low.

439
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 1: So my doctor tells me you can't get away with revenge.

440
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh god, don't even try. Now that I was

441
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 2: just on the cruise. All my ads are for the cruise.

442
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 4: Oh good prep medication sure, and like testosterone replacement.

443
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 2: Oh interesting, these bro podcasters are on.

444
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: And doesn't that What does that actually do? It just

445
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 1: turns you into a rageful psycho.

446
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

447
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 4: I think like these like halbermen like Maximize your Potential

448
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,640
Speaker 4: men are secretly all just like ripping tea.

449
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 1: I'm sure they are right, and they're all they're all

450
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,879
Speaker 1: truly like a year away from killing a woman in

451
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: their life. Sure, Like these people are so dangerous and

452
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 1: they're only like just their initial mindset is bad, and

453
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: then they're bringing in extra testosterone, which is just mutating them.

454
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: Like the murders are gonna start happening more and more.

455
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: I think, yes, sorry, you heard it here first.

456
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.

457
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 1: It's probably true.

458
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 2: It's probably the murder rate America is actually down. I

459
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 2: think that's true.

460
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: Crime rate is down, and this is we're getting because

461
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 1: we voted for Donald Trump.

462
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 2: Right. Oh, look at that beautiful bug. I've never seen

463
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 2: something like that. But that was like a creamsickle bee

464
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 2: like with orange.

465
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: I've literally never seen a bug like that.

466
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 2: Was a bee with no stripes.

467
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 1: I thought I had seen every type of bug, and

468
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: now you got ripes.

469
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 2: That'd be a great character for you to play in

470
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 2: a sketch show.

471
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: It just looks like a worm be without its stripes.

472
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,199
Speaker 1: Would be a nice little children's book. Maybe we co

473
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: write maybe maybe I think that that's another strip's gone.

474
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: Oh that's a good one, and it's sort of.

475
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 2: It is ultimately about being gay.

476
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that's every children's novel or children's book ends

477
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 1: up being Well, it's just because the character was a gay. Great,

478
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: it's interesting it.

479
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 2: Has children's books. Is that at market you're interested in entering?

480
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 1: No, but I feel like that's something that somebody, if

481
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,440
Speaker 1: they just want some extra money can It.

482
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 2: Can't be very much.

483
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 1: I think if it hits rain, you're really like it's

484
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: going crazy.

485
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 2: It seems like such a flooded market.

486
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's like buying a lottery ticket. Basically,

487
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: ray you think of like a catchy title with a

488
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 1: name in it, Wendy the Witch, or Stripe with no stripes.

489
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,120
Speaker 1: You find a decent illustrator, and then you write fourteen

490
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 1: sentences and I'm not I know. There are a lot

491
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: of great, great children's books. There really are.

492
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 2: Of course they're not easy. The Polar Express.

493
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 1: The Polar Express one of my favorite films as well.

494
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 2: That's a spooky one.

495
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 1: That is a spooky one.

496
00:24:55,960 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 2: My favorite TikTok almost of all time, is about Bull Express.

497
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 1: What is it?

498
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 2: I can't describe it.

499
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: I'll go ahead and tell us about a TikTok followed

500
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: up with a dream you had recap.

501
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,640
Speaker 2: She just said, if the Polar Express was actually good.

502
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 4: And it's just Cral singing like prison book, I just

503
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 4: have to send it to you.

504
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 2: She's like singing creed.

505
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, are you still on TikTok?

506
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: I post clips of the podcast, just how the audience is.

507
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: I think people are leaving TikTok.

508
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 2: I think so too. But it's also truly.

509
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 1: I think it's the worst app like because it will

510
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: find a keyword in the audio you upload that will

511
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: not be offensive, but it will find offensive and it

512
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: will say, well, I'm not showing that zero views shut.

513
00:25:55,480 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: It's really like. I uploaded a video from the podcast

514
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: of Elena Johnston talking about how after she saw Casper

515
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 1: the Friendly Ghost as a kid and seeing the kissing scene,

516
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: she wanted she had seen as enough that she could

517
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: kill herself. Very innocent joke.

518
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you can't say who cannot say KMS.

519
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: Well, she didn't even say kill herself. She's just like

520
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: basically indicated that she would end her life. Right.

521
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 2: That app is so good bye.

522
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: Bye go bye bye. Oh. And the way it's like

523
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,120
Speaker 1: change the way people talk. I'm aliving.

524
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 2: All this is so early.

525
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, you're so on you're doing a good job

526
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 1: on ty.

527
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 2: I'm having I'm like, now is my moment. All the

528
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 2: creators have left.

529
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 4: It's completely demonetized, like there's no way to make money

530
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 4: on it off it anymore. And I met with some

531
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 4: agent at before this agency dropped me and he was like,

532
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 4: you have to be making video content, and so now

533
00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 4: I am.

534
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:00,040
Speaker 2: And then I was dropped.

535
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 4: As soon as I started this age. Yeah, we're seeing

536
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 4: the content and it's just not working.

537
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:17,280
Speaker 1: You actually are doing what I see TikTok when it

538
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: allows me to see one of your things. However, it

539
00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: decides that it's always so good, Oh thank you, it's always.

540
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:24,639
Speaker 1: But I think I'm in the same boat as you

541
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 1: of like joining any of these services, I'm always too late,

542
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: right because I think what happens is annoying people join first,

543
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: annoying ambitious people, and so i'm it's off putting, and

544
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 1: then I wait too long because normal people start getting on.

545
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 1: But I'm so irritated so long that I wait long

546
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: enough for it to then be worths me.

547
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 2: I feel like we just got to be on the

548
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: lookout for the next one. What is the next one?

549
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 2: What could it possibly offer?

550
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 4: There has to be one out there, and once it's

551
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,479
Speaker 4: out there, we're gonna attack.

552
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna go full throttle, and then it'll be a

553
00:27:58,840 --> 00:27:59,440
Speaker 1: flop one.

554
00:27:59,760 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 2: Right.

555
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,560
Speaker 4: Well, this is a big part of my I'm now

556
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 4: been like sober for a year and a half and

557
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 4: a big part of my like going to rehab and

558
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 4: embracing something you've just done casually your whole life is

559
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:20,240
Speaker 4: just being like, I'm not taking anything on, I am

560
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 4: not taking anything personally. I'm just going to continually to

561
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 4: show up and be like I'm still here.

562
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,120
Speaker 1: That's great, that's wonderful.

563
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,320

Speaker 4: Fringe and Edinburgh Fringe, and your audience are people who

566
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 4: I feel like, if they're listening to you regularly, they

567
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 4: must be cool and I want to communicate with them

568
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 4: and I want them to see the piece that.

569
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: I'm working on.

570
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,360

00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 2: And it perfectly sized, actually works really well. This was

578
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 2: like a bodcast pressed people.

579
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: We look like two ginger moms supporting our sons.

580
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 4: I am so basically, my brother's schizophrenic and by or

581
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:39,600
Speaker 4: bipolar and suffers from schizophrenia. And he occasionally because just

582
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 4: completely wild's out, okay, like, travels from this whatever city

583
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 4: he's living in, whether he's housed or on house, to

584
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 4: a different place.

585
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 2: You know, he's been to Alaska, New York. He's like

586
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 2: a he's like a retiree.

587
00:29:53,520 --> 00:30:01,120
Speaker 4: Sure, he's been to southern California, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Chicago, Cleveland.

588
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 4: And because he's white, he can often find ways to

589
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 4: access credit, and he can access credit.

590
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 2: And all of a suddenly he'll have a Mini Cooper, right,

591
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: traveling the country and the mini Cooper. So the show

592
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 2: that I.

593
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 4: Finally wrote and am working on is about my family's

594
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 4: many attempts to sort of recover him and medicate or

595
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 4: corral him back into some sort of.

596
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,800
Speaker 1: Care right, some sort of safe environment, right.

597
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 4: And so, and I've been doing stand up for like

598
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 4: twelve years, and all of a sudden, I started like

599
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 4: trying to talk about him in my stand up and

600
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 4: it wasn't serving the material because it was like only

601
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 4: trying to make it.

602
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 1: Funny, right, you need context, and it.

603
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 2: Wasn't serving the audience.

604
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 4: Like I'd be doing like long forty five minute sets

605
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 4: and I'd be like, Okay, so for the last ten minutes,

606
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 4: I'm just going to like drop this traumatic thing that's

607
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 4: happening in my life on you, and people would be like, yeah,

608
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 4: like thanks for sharing that, but like not what I

609
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 4: was looking for. So what I finally tried to do

610
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 4: is like write something that blends theater and my stand

611
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 4: up into this story that's about my family and my

612
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 4: brother and our us collect our collective mania around his mania.

613
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 2: Right.

614
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: Wow, that sounds incredible, It sounds very ambitious.

615
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:40,000
Speaker 4: Actually, it's it's something that I feel very nervous about, right,

616
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 4: So that's what I feel called to speak on that,

617
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 4: And so that's why I'm trying to do these festivals

618
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 4: to sort of get it into shape, to some get

619
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 4: it into a place where I can feel proud.

620
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 2: Of what it is.

621
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 1: Right, And how have you been shaping? Have you just

622
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 1: been doing shows around LA with it.

623
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 2: I have you?

624
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: Have you shown it publicly yet? No?

625
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 2: This will be a world premiere.

626
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 4: Okay, I've done pieces of it around town, and I've

627
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 4: done like I've done my hour, my stand up Hour,

628
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 4: which at times includes parts of this in LA and

629
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 4: New York, San Francisco, the Gay Spot Chicago, and so

630
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 4: a lot of some of the material has been like

631
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 4: changed and shifted into this theater piece, right, but other

632
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 4: other than that. Now it's a world premiere in June.

633
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 1: Well, that's amazing. And how many siblings do you have?

634
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 2: I have four? How many do you have? I have three? Okay,

635
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 2: well you've got a big time.

636
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 1: That's small for more of man, it's standard, that's bare minimum.

637
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: Four is if you have less than four children, people

638
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 1: are like something's happening.

639
00:32:56,080 --> 00:33:01,800
Speaker 4: In like infertility issues or they have an alternative fertility

640
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 4: issues or alternative swinger.

641
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: They're like, truly, if somebody has less than at least

642
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 1: when I was growing up in the culture, then I

643
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 1: think it may have shifted a little bit, but it

644
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 1: was like, if you have less than four children, it's

645
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 1: just like not a typical family.

646
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 2: How many siblings do your parents have?

647
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: My mom has three? So she has four in her family,

648
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 1: and then my dad had six. He had seven kids

649
00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 1: in his family.

650
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, my mom is one of ten, am I

651
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 2: dad is one of six.

652
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 1: Okay, this is Catholic.

653
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 2: Catholic.

654
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 1: I mean as much does Mormons get for having huge families.

655
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 2: Catholics, especially Irish Catholics.

656
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, because contraceptions.

657
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 2: Really, I think it was really frowned upon.

658
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, but this pope seems somewhat chill on all.

659
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 2: Oh, you're biased, right, Well, he's from course still pope.

660
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 4: One thing is knowing that my grandmother who ultimately like

661
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 4: shifted towards Trump late in her life in a way

662
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 4: that was really upsetting who I grew up in Chicago,

663
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 4: her whole life would be so upset at this Chicago popes. Oh,

664
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 4: it's like a complicated sign that whatever path she was

665
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 4: on air towards the end was like.

666
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 2: Would not wouldn't have wasn't serving her right now.

667
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 1: This is I think for so many religious people, like

668
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 1: Mormons really kind of showed their ass in twenty sixteen

669
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: when it was like they were not going to vote

670
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: for Trump. Yeah, he was so against everything Mormon stood for,

671
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 1: and then they all voted for him and it's just

672
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,800
Speaker 1: like this tension and this weird hypocrisy that really showed itself,

673
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 1: especially among older religious people. Sure, just like I don't know,

674
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: I no longer know who to follow my religious leader,

675
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 1: who I've sworn my life to, or wild Rose Beauty

676
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,399
Speaker 1: or I've purchased from wild Rose Media too.

677
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 2: I bought a dress, Oh yes, I do remember that.

678
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 1: I own address from her, and Matt Rogers brought me

679
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: one of her products.

680
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 2: I brought some skin care for a friend as a gift.

681
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:09,799
Speaker 1: And did they use it?

682
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:10,720
Speaker 2: I hope.

683
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 4: So I feel like most skincare is sort of like

684
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 4: all the same, right, It's the.

685
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 1: Same basic ingredients that does nothing right.

686
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 2: Right.

687
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,360
Speaker 1: I mean I I with Whitney Rose, I would be

688
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 1: a little.

689
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 2: Bit more afraid.

690
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 1: So I feel like she's willing to do whatever it

691
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:28,720
Speaker 1: takes to get.

692
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 2: A buck, right. Well, yes, and which I wish I

693
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 2: was more like that. I had toom mentality.

694
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 1: This is something that I think most of us in

695
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: comedy at this point, who have kind of like controlled

696
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:49,160
Speaker 1: ourselves and planted to be polite and then ultimately plateaued,

697
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,800
Speaker 1: have looked at psychos who have shot off into the

698
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: atmosphere and been like now I'm like, well, I could

699
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 1: at least follow up on an email.

700
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:01,840
Speaker 2: Right, I wouldn't do Oh no, this is in my sobriety.

701
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 2: I'm bothering people.

702
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: Yes, you have to see.

703
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 4: I feel like, even though you never drank, you should

704
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 4: just do three months in rehab to be like, my

705
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:14,759
Speaker 4: mentality is all wrong. I need the like I need

706
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 4: to be set free, Like I feel so like set

707
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:22,960
Speaker 4: free of alcohol that I that you need that for something.

708
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 2: You got to go to esselon.

709
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 4: Or that's not a bad idea, and you don't go

710
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 4: do ayahuasca. I feel like a lot of psychopaths are

711
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 4: like I went and did ayahuasca, and what I learned

712
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 4: is that I am the center of the universe.

713
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 1: I'm the only thing that matters to anyone exactly.

714
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 2: I learned that everyone else is a simulation.

715
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 4: And I'm in the Truman Show and you're like, okay

716
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 4: and that, and you are behaving that way.

717
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:47,920
Speaker 1: And they were probably behaving that way a little bit

718
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,240
Speaker 1: before anyway, right, Yeah, they didn't need to go ahead.

719
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 4: Right, I experienced ego death, but by being a huge

720
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:57,720
Speaker 4: crazy person.

721
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,920
Speaker 1: No, I do just literally, in the last probably six

722
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,800
Speaker 1: to nine months have been like push a little bit. Yes,

723
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 1: you should maybe stand up for yourself on occasion you got.

724
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 2: To join like a writer's group or an actor's group.

725
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:16,240
Speaker 1: That's not a bad idea.

726
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 2: Get on a zoom and everyone's just hanging so my

727
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 2: manager spin at my mouth. They are getting me out.

728
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:30,720
Speaker 2: So does it feel like I should shove a banana

729
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 2: in my own ass? And everyone's like, are they signing people?

730
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 2: I've just got drop.

731
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,240
Speaker 1: That's I mean, that's basically what we're living in right now.

732
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,720
Speaker 1: That's essentially what we're living in outside of like fourteen

733
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,799
Speaker 1: people who don't have to deal with it. Oh yes,

734
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:54,959
Speaker 1: who built their their boats and have sailed away watching

735
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,319
Speaker 1: the rest of us drown. Oh god, no, I.

736
00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 2: Don't think I'm drowning.

737
00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,320
Speaker 4: I feel like my boat like hit in a toll

738
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:05,439
Speaker 4: and I'm like, I mean my castaway moment where I'm like, all.

739
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,280
Speaker 2: I gotta do is stay alive.

740
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 4: You know where he goes to the top and you

741
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 4: learn afterwards he's like tried to throw a body, but

742
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:14,839
Speaker 4: he couldn't kill himself the way he wanted to.

743
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: I don't remember that part. I only saw him once

744
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 1: and it was right as I was getting strep throat.

745
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 2: Oh so you were also experiencing.

746
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: I remember that movie was a physical experience for me

747
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 1: because I was strep throat was gearing up to make

748
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 1: me sick. I remember being like, oh, this feels bad

749
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:31,760
Speaker 1: to watch.

750
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 4: Well, I haven't seen it in years, but I feel

751
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:38,319
Speaker 4: like that's kind of where I am now.

752
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 2: Okay, and the plane, the ship, it's gonna.

753
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 1: Come, It's going to come.

754
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 4: I gotta I'm just building the raft one podcast appearance.

755
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 2: At the time.

756
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like I'm a little Batreon podcast experience

757
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 4: that I just did.

758
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 1: Jenny yangs oh, I love too.

Speaker 2: I feel like she lives like down the pretty close.

760
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,799
Speaker 1: And who cares where I saw? I saw She's so lovely. Well,

761

00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 2: doing his show, The Best Story, one of the best.

764
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, this is I guess what we're all

765
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 1: kind of going through. I feel like I'm on essentially

766
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 1: a raft and so I haven't drowned, and I have

767
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 1: the ability to move, and You're beloved and I'm ultimately beloved.

768
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 2: That is simply not true.

769
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,080
Speaker 1: I think I've really hated are you. I don't know.

770
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:36,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, am I secretly hated?

771
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

772
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 4: I would tell you if I had heard some well,

773
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:42,879
Speaker 4: I've actually never heard anyone.

774
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 2: Speak ill of you. That might just be because.

775
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 4: You're not part of the conversation. I would if you're

776
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 4: not being hated, you're not part of the conversation.

777
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 2: I just learned that nobody.

778
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 1: I try to be nice to everybody, right, I try

779
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 1: to be nice and just stay in my own lane.

780
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,279
Speaker 1: But maybe that's a bad idea.

781
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 2: I can't. I don't know.

782
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 4: I feel like sometimes in my when things are going

783
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,880
Speaker 4: well for me, that's when I would get a little

784
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 4: like persnickety about things and like start having standards. Oh sure,

785
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 4: And now that that's not happened, Like you know, I'm

786
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 4: just a little pup.

787
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 2: I just try and just want to be told I'm

788
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,600

Speaker 1: Okay, what about you.

821
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 2: I've got a younger sister and two older brothers, two

822
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 2: older brothers.

823
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 4: Right, Oh, I never had an older brother.

824
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 2: Oh, where are you in those middle middle?

825
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 1: So three of five you have three two under you?

00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 2: Yes, two under two older? Okay? Wow? Yeah, who's the

827
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 2: baby Kevin? Who did that?

828
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:26,359
Speaker 1: Are?

829
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 2: Okay? Well?

830
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 1: And as far as it's like two years between.

831
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 2: Each, like three three two or three? Interesting?

832
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 1: So there's a pretty big age gap between the oldest

833
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 1: and youngest.

834
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe like twelve years or something like that.

835
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 4: I can't I can't do the math right now. I

836
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 4: don't want to say how old my oldest sister is.

837
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,120
Speaker 1: You don't want to ruin her right career because I'm

838
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 1: twelve star, how are your career?

839
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:54,799
Speaker 2: Because a twenty eight year old I do feel like

840
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 2: I'm cresting.

841
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: But you still have two years to get thirty under

842
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:00,399
Speaker 1: thirty right, and you are putting in work.

843
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm a founder.

844
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 1: Who picks the thirty under thirty? Who what pervert? It's

845
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,240
Speaker 1: ultimately a pervert, Yes, who's got their eye on young people?

846
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 2: I agree a some other thirty year old thirty one

847
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:18,880
Speaker 2: year old who's been thirty for like fifty years? Is

848
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:19,719
Speaker 2: that Forbes?

849
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 1: I think it is Forbes, And we don't think anyone

850
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 1: trusts Forbes anymore. I think Forbes is just something you

851
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: can like sign up like Facebook and write an article.

852
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:31,240
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, I haven't been on a list in years.

853
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 2: I should make a list, Bridgers list.

854
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,399
Speaker 1: What's stopping me? People love to be on a list.

855
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:38,920
Speaker 1: Once someone's on a list, they start promoting the list,

856
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 1: and it gives it, it makes it valid, and then

857
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 1: everyone else wants to be on the list.

858
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:45,480
Speaker 4: And then all of a sudden you have an event. Yeah,

859
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 4: and it's like sponsored by am way Away Presents Bridgers List,

860
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 4: and it's called the B List.

861
00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 1: Well, we should do a list. We should do that

862
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 1: B list, B list everyone wants. We should want people

863
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 1: to be on the B list.

864
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 4: People, I guess people do want to be It's the

865
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 4: same thing with like the queer teas. These are quarterly right,

866
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 4: Like how are there so many queer tea ceremonies that

867
00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:19,279
Speaker 4: I'm never invited to? And there's always photos and there's

868
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,600
Speaker 4: always like best You've probably never been nominated.

869
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,359
Speaker 1: For, not nominated, not invited to. I'm not as far

870

00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 1: gay community, right, I don't think that I'm allowed. They've

872
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:33,799
Speaker 1: built a wall up and I'm not allowed in the

873
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: gay community.

874
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:38,279

Speaker 1: Are you doing somebody wants a ginger right?

Speaker 1: Oh? God, the scandal? Oh Norwegian?

882
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,440
Speaker 2: Norwegian? Did you do that? Yes?

883
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:06,239
Speaker 4: That?

884
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:09,360
Speaker 1: I have to destroy that footage I sent it along.

885
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 1: I can't sing Happy Birthday.

886
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:14,439
Speaker 2: I had to sing. I forgot to sing.

887
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 1: I had to sing.

888
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,479
Speaker 2: Well, maybe you got to the second round. They didn't

889
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 2: ask me to sing. I cannot sing.

890
00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:23,080
Speaker 1: It was horrible.

891
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 2: You can't you just match maker match No.

892
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 1: I truly can't keep pitch like. I can't carry a tune.

893
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,200
Speaker 2: Wow, and your partner is a musical.

894
00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:34,960
Speaker 1: It's horrible. It's almost abusive because when I try singing,

895
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 1: he makes fun of me. Oh god, he could. He

896
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:38,479
Speaker 1: should teach me how to sing.

897
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:43,040
Speaker 4: Teach me how to sing. We're just giving you other

898
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:44,359
Speaker 4: podcast ideas.

899
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:46,720
Speaker 1: I think we should have a podcast called the bat List.

900
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 2: I agree everybody wants to be on the list, or

901
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:51,240
Speaker 2: we should.

902
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,279
Speaker 1: At least have an annual thing wherever whoever made the

903
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:53,760
Speaker 1: B list?

904
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 2: That would be fun.

905
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 4: Okay, So here's how I do feel like if it

906
00:45:57,520 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 4: was a recurring thing, we could be.

907
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:05,880
Speaker 2: Like Today's so of the B list is like fast casual?

908
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,320
Speaker 2: Who made the interesting?

909
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:14,160
Speaker 4: It would be like, you know, Chili's made the B List,

910
00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 4: but Friday has dropped.

911
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:21,799
Speaker 1: They've made it to the D list. Wow, this is interesting.

912
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:25,359
Speaker 4: But we can also do people you know that would

913
00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 4: just potentially be hurting our career.

914
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know this is the thing, but I'm kind

915
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:33,279
Speaker 1: of ready to ready to just torpedo self sabotage in

916
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 1: a huge way. I'm ready to name it. I'm so

917
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,240
Speaker 1: tired of protecting everyone.

918
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,439
Speaker 4: I do feel like people are craving that sort of authenticity.

919
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just who do you hate? Or I mean

920
00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 2: you've seen Network, right?

921
00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, of course right? And that is how this

922
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 1: Maybe I should have a Network moment where I just

923
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 1: started namingk comedians I don't like.

924
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I have such a lovely view of Eagle

925
00:46:58,239 --> 00:46:59,719
Speaker 4: Rock or wherever you live right now.

926
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:03,919
Speaker 1: And we got to play a game, play a game,

927
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 1: we got into some dangerous territory.

928
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:13,319
Speaker 4: Okay, so just FYI listener, we just cut about six

929
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:18,080
Speaker 4: minutes of Bridger and I talking shit. And if you

930
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 4: want to hear that unfiltered, you got to come to

931
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:24,239
Speaker 4: some of the live shows because that live stuff is

932
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,320
Speaker 4: where that shit talking happens, and then it gets cut

933
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 4: in post.

934
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:32,360
Speaker 1: So you don't want any of that now, Okay, Connor,

935
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,879
Speaker 1: cut it all, listener. We had to cut a lot

936
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,720
Speaker 1: because we said a lot of I will say horrible

937
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 1: people's names and some nice people's names.

938
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,120
Speaker 4: Well, at a certain point, I was trying to guess

939
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,239
Speaker 4: who Bridger thinks it is horrible, and I said some

940
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 4: nice people's names who I don't think are horrible, but

941
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:51,359
Speaker 4: I think it could be reflected that, like, somewhere deep

942
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:51,719
Speaker 4: in my.

943
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:52,879
Speaker 2: Brain, I think you thought they were good.

944
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 1: Right, that's true, But really I'm.

945
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:56,720
Speaker 2: Just trying to get to know you better.

946
00:47:58,120 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 1: What you're trying to do is talk shit.

Speaker 1: You're on TikTok Instagram.

973
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 2: I'm on TikTok. I'm on threads. Oh are you threading? No?

974
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,400
Speaker 1: I'm constantly saying. It's saying, here's a thread you might like.

975
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:08,839
Speaker 1: I look at it. Of course it's not a thread.

976
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:10,880
Speaker 1: I like. I've never had a thread that I was

977
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:11,400
Speaker 1: interested in.

978
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:12,799
Speaker 2: You gotta get on threads.

979
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 1: No, thank you, I'm not doing this anymore.

980
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm doing a consultation with you.

981
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 1: I've bled enough.

982
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 4: I'm an insane woman, actress, acting teacher in LA and

983
00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:27,600

986
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,880
Speaker 1: All right, this is how we play. We're playing a

987
00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:43,880
Speaker 1: game called Gift a Curse. As soon as the garbage

988
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 1: truck leaves, it is garbage day, and we love the

989
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 1: sound of trash being taken. Mm, they're moving on.

990
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,240
Speaker 2: If trash is being taken, it means it's no longer

991
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:54,800
Speaker 2: near me.

992
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:56,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's no longer near me.

993
00:49:57,200 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 4: Do you ever hear the trash and you realize you

994
00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:02,160
Speaker 4: didn't put the trash out?

995
00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:06,839
Speaker 1: Horrible fit And you're running there and you're waving down

996
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 1: and you're rolling it, and it's it moves slow enough

997
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:13,800
Speaker 1: that you think you can catch it, but it's freaking

998
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: usually fast enough that you can't.

999
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:17,280
Speaker 2: No, and they don't stop.

1000
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:19,879
Speaker 1: They don't know, they don't They shouldn't. Good for them.

1001
00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 2: No, they've got places to be.

1002
00:50:22,120 --> 00:50:24,799
Speaker 1: Okay, we're going to play Gift or a Curse. I'm

1003
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:26,440
Speaker 1: going to name three things you'll tell me if they're

1004
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,799
Speaker 1: a gift or a curse? And why then I'll tell

1005
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 1: you if you're right or wrong. Okay, correct answers?

1006
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 2: All right?

1007
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,400
Speaker 1: This first one is from a listener named Antonia. Gift

1008
00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 1: or a curse. Cadberry cream eggs, Oh, curse? Why curse?

1009
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 4: I just feel like that's like an Easter candy that's

1010
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:51,400
Speaker 4: year round. So I'm like, there, this is for Easter. However,

1011
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:53,839
Speaker 4: you're selling them a round, so a lot of them

1012
00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 4: are stale and weird, right, because they make them all

1013
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,520
Speaker 4: for Easter, right, all of a sudden, it's no and

1014
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 4: you're eating a Cadberry egg and you're like, this, this

1015
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:09,839
Speaker 4: is past its date, right, And now that you're saying that,

1016
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 4: let me just check what I think.

1017
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:16,359
Speaker 1: Aberry a Cadberry cream egg is, because I know they're

1018
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,920
Speaker 1: two different. Okay, yes, this is what I was thinking

1019
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 1: it is.

1020
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:20,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is like.

1021
00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 4: One of those British chocolates that like British people are like, oh, I.

1022
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 2: Love that, and then you have a bite of it

1023
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 2: and it crumbles all over you. But you're saying curse.

1024
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 2: I think curse. Correct? Thank god?

1025
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:34,879
Speaker 1: Oh this is I like the mini eggs. Of course,

1026
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 1: everyone loves the mini egg Oh, I love a mini

1027
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:40,960
Speaker 1: egg Cadberry, although Cadberry has recently I think changed the recipe,

1028
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,480
Speaker 1: which is shameful. I think so too, because it was

1029
00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 1: a perfect candy that was a nice little treat around springtime.

1030
00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:52,959
Speaker 1: The Cadberry cream egg is disgusting. It's designed to look

1031
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,320
Speaker 1: and feel like an egg in your mouth.

1032
00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:58,320
Speaker 2: Regular eggs.

1033
00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, the regular egg is kind of like you have

1034
00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 1: to really kind of prepare yourself mentally to eat an egg.

1035
00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 2: Oh, a runny egg. I mean love.

1036
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:08,440
Speaker 1: I will love them when I'm eating them, but I

1037
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:11,680
Speaker 1: can't you can't think ten seconds about what you're doing.

1038
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 4: No, that I'm eating like an egg that popped out

1039
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:18,319
Speaker 4: of a chicken and she was in And even if

1040
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:22,040
Speaker 4: you bought the free range ones, they weren't really allowed

1041
00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 4: to roam.

1042
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:24,520
Speaker 1: There is a lot of scandal around, like.

1043
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 2: In like Auschwitz for these fucking chickens. Yeah, and everyone

1044
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,080
Speaker 2: was free range and out farm.

1045
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:36,880
Speaker 1: The farmer had to run and catch it on a

1046
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:40,000
Speaker 1: beautiful green hill. No, it was in a dirty, filthy patch. No,

1047
00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:44,840
Speaker 1: but a Cadbury cream egg. No one likes them. No,

1048
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 1: there's simply I understand the novelty of a food looking

1049
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:50,640
Speaker 1: like another food. It also is kind of like the

1050
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,799
Speaker 1: patient zero for food looking like other food. You know,

1051
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 1: this is how we got is it cake? Basically?

1052
00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:59,480
Speaker 2: God, that's tracking that line.

1053
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:02,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, all the way back. And you've got a chocolate

1054
00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:04,640
Speaker 1: egg that looks like an egg and has a yolk

1055
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:06,839
Speaker 1: in the middle. Yeah, disgusting.

1056
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:07,920
Speaker 2: That's a curse.

1057
00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:11,240
Speaker 1: Okay, so we've gotten one right so far. This second

1058
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:14,360
Speaker 1: one is from a listener named Sarah. Gift or a

1059
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 1: curse the word yummy.

1060
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:29,360
Speaker 4: I think gift why mmm, yummy, yummy. I think you

1061
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 4: can use it in a lot of ways, like picture this,

1062
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,600
Speaker 4: you've just eaten the guy's come.

1063

Speaker 2: Uh, somebody has just baked cooked for you. Oh yummy.

00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:54,800
Speaker 2: This is this is an acting exercise, yummy m oh.

1068
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 4: Or like it's they've tried something new but you haven't

00:53:58,520 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 4: tried it yet.

1070
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:02,880
Speaker 2: But it sounds interesting, like, you know, like a white

Speaker 1: We all love saying yummy. We're all saying it constantly.

1077
00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:23,719
Speaker 1: I'm at a restaurant, I'm perusing the menu, I'm going

Speaker 2: Yummy yummy and my tummy.

1085
00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:49,440
Speaker 4: I think there are times when you, as a gay man,

1086
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:51,640
Speaker 4: are allowed to cat call other gay.

1087

Speaker 2: Men and it's not bad, right, And.

1088
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:57,480
Speaker 4: I think yummy yummy in my tummy is something you

1089
00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:06,440
Speaker 4: could say. Driving through West Hollywood, me and my sixty

1090

1097
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:32,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a small list. I think it's a smaller

1098
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,880
Speaker 1: list of people who have failed completely, like zero for

1099
00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:40,399
Speaker 1: zero for three freaks. Yeah, those people really outdid themselves.

1100
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,120
Speaker 1: This final one is from a listener named Levi. Gift

1101
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:46,920
Speaker 1: or a Curse, splitting the bill evenly.

1102
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 2: Gift Okay, I'm.

1103
00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:57,319
Speaker 4: I guess I just feel like it all works out

1104
00:55:57,360 --> 00:56:00,200
Speaker 4: in the wash unless you have like a friend who's like,

1105
00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:01,920
Speaker 4: really on the.

1106
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:06,120
Speaker 2: Dole and the dole is you and I, Yeah, I

1107
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,000
Speaker 2: just feel like I'm down to split everything.

1108
00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:14,399
Speaker 4: I suppose, yes, gift the thing of like, here's what

1109
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 4: I had, here's what you had. I feel like the

1110
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:19,239
Speaker 4: person who puts their credit card down eventually ends up

1111
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:23,760
Speaker 4: paying more because as a country, we're not good at math,

1112
00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,239
Speaker 4: and people aren't anticipating tax and tip.

1113
00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 1: And it's hard to start doing the percentages right.

1114
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:33,239
Speaker 4: Or one of your friends is like I only tip

1115
00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:34,680
Speaker 4: eighteen percent, and then you're like.

1116
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:36,719
Speaker 2: Well, now I've learned that about you.

1117
00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:40,320
Speaker 4: And it's hard for me to continue the friendship.

1118
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,600
Speaker 1: I was planning to rip off the waiter. I wasn't

1119
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 1: going to give any.

1120
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 2: Tips, so right, Well, I don't tip.

1121
00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:49,480
Speaker 4: I don't believe it tips so and they have to

1122
00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:51,440
Speaker 4: pay taxes on them, which I don't think is right.

1123
00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:57,839
Speaker 1: So yeah, eh, so gift gift, you.

1124
00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:00,360
Speaker 2: Think splitting it evenly I think is a gift.

1125
00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,360
Speaker 4: I think it's a gift that you can give yourself

1126
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:04,120
Speaker 4: and your friend and the loved ones.

1127
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:10,600
Speaker 1: Wrong curse, no, no, no, we have as a society

1128
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:12,879
Speaker 1: we have to step away from this. First of all,

1129
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:16,520
Speaker 1: we have the tech. Every waiter has a little device

1130
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:21,800
Speaker 1: that can split up the bill or at least roughly.

1131
00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:27,840
Speaker 1: Second of all people, there's always one person who goes crazy,

1132
00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:30,560
Speaker 1: and it's usually not the person that I even wanted

1133
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:33,959
Speaker 1: at dinner. And so I'm like, I'm listening to order

1134
00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:35,840
Speaker 1: and order and order, knowing I'm going to have to

1135
00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:37,919
Speaker 1: pay for their They're insane meal.

1136
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 2: They're Aaron Cheney, yes, and like.

1137
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:43,640
Speaker 1: Four different drinks all that make no sense with the meal.

1138
00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:49,200
Speaker 1: I hate it. The all you could. The best you

1139
00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:51,360
Speaker 1: can do is the person who over ordered says, I

1140
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:54,360
Speaker 1: do the tip that to me makes sense.

1141
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:58,600
Speaker 2: I guess in the gift, I'm anticipating.

1142
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:00,760
Speaker 1: That you dine out with on a people.

1143
00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 4: Right exactly, I'm anticipating that I'm not going to dinner

1144
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:04,840
Speaker 4: with monsters.

1145
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 1: Well, you'll be supposed.

1146
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:10,560
Speaker 2: I feel like everything is fucking shared.

1147
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:13,320
Speaker 4: Now if you're going to a sit down restaurant.

1148
00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,720
Speaker 1: Not at the restaurants I avoid, avoid, avoid.

1149
00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 2: No there's no ordering your own entrey.

1150
00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

1151
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 2: If I'm in Los Angeles, I'm getting up and leaving.

1152
00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:24,160
Speaker 1: Oh I have to share. I have to like collaborate

1153
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:24,840
Speaker 1: on my meal.

1154
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:29,120
Speaker 2: Yes, that's how it all. It's small plates, family styles, shared.

1155
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:34,200
Speaker 2: There's no I'm getting the chicken palm for me in

1156
00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:34,920
Speaker 2: this town.

1157
00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:38,280
Speaker 1: That's right here. Absolutely. There are a few types of

1158
00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:43,280
Speaker 1: restaurants where I probably will do sharing style. At Chinese restaurants, sure,

1159
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:46,320
Speaker 1: Thai restaurants, so you.

1160
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:48,040
Speaker 2: Respect other people's cultures.

1161
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:54,320
Speaker 1: Ah, yes, those table not farm to table.

1162
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:59,480
Speaker 4: Occasionally Italian okay, see Italian, I feel like is one

1163
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:00,360
Speaker 4: of the places where.

1164
00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:01,480
Speaker 2: You order your own entree.

1165
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:02,000
Speaker 3: Right.

1166
00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:05,880
Speaker 2: I mean it's clar you get that, you get the

1167
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:07,080
Speaker 2: fatucinia fraido.

1168
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:10,720
Speaker 1: Right, But at an Italian restaurant, I can see myself

1169
00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 1: someone having a big thing of pasta, but I've got

1170
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:14,400
Speaker 1: more of a protein. So I'm like, let's split it

1171
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:14,960
Speaker 1: a little bit.

1172
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:18,600
Speaker 2: So maybe you would split the bill as a gift.

1173
00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:22,320
Speaker 2: We would figure it out in the honest way. You're

1174
00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:24,080
Speaker 2: not like each getting a Spamoni.

1175
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,080
Speaker 1: I love a Spamona, of course.

1176
00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:30,320
Speaker 2: Okay, Well you've got two out of three, Okay, I'll

1177
00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:32,360
Speaker 2: take that. I don't want to be three for three.

1178
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:34,240
Speaker 1: No, you like a little rough edge.

1179
00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:36,360
Speaker 2: That should be my own personal right.

1180
00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:41,560
Speaker 1: Right, let's answer a listener question or two. Let's see

1181
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 1: here the garbage truck is now, it's kind of it's revenge.

1182
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 1: It's on the other side of the street. Let's see here.

1183
00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:51,880
Speaker 1: We've got to have a decent question here.

1184
00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 2: There's some narrow streets around here too.

1185
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:56,000
Speaker 1: Oh my life side swiped a neighbor.

1186

Speaker 2: wheel of like a white car.

1189
01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 1: But there are narrow streets and parking on both sides

1190
01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:16,040
Speaker 1: makes things tricky.

1191
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,600
Speaker 2: Do you have a sedan or a hatchback?

1192
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:22,360

1212
01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:30,640
Speaker 1: playing the game Crazy Taxi, which really endeared him to me,

1213
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 1: especially as somebody who like.

1214
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,120
Speaker 2: Wow, what a deep pull on the Dreamcast.

1215
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:39,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I appreciated that. But we have to answer.

1216
01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:42,400
Speaker 1: Let's answer one question here, and let's see this. As

1217
01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:45,640
Speaker 1: you arrived to a pot luck neighborhood holiday party. What

1218
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,200
Speaker 1: have you brought? And what are you hoping will be there?

1219
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 1: That's from Megan.

1220
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 2: What if I brought and what if I hoping will

1221
01:01:52,800 --> 01:01:55,920
Speaker 2: be there? I make a pretty good key lime pie.

1222
01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:57,280
Speaker 1: Oh that's a nice thing.

1223
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:01,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it doesn't require you to anything. It doesn't

1224
01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 4: require an oven.

1225
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:05,480
Speaker 2: You're not even the Graham Cracker.

1226
01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:09,360
Speaker 4: Well, it's made ahead of time. Oh, it's like everything's

1227
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:11,800
Speaker 4: made in my house. Right, it's put in a fridge

1228
01:02:12,480 --> 01:02:14,840
Speaker 4: so it's chilled. So it's a rive chill that gets

1229
01:02:14,840 --> 01:02:18,080
Speaker 4: put in the fridge or freezer until they bring up

1230
01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:22,480
Speaker 4: the dessert. Right, Because at a potluck, a curse is

1231
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:24,760
Speaker 4: bringing something. He just needs a little bit of time

1232
01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:27,960
Speaker 4: in the oven and it just needs ten to fifteen.

1233
01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:30,840
Speaker 1: Then that person didn't do their job. They've created a

1234
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:31,520
Speaker 1: new job.

1235
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:35,439

Speaker 4: and there's going to be staffed.

1240
01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:47,080
Speaker 1: They've got several underpaid employees.

1241
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:49,920
Speaker 4: Of course that they're paying cash who will be there.

1242
01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:52,440
Speaker 4: So it's fine. We can bring.

1243
01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:59,640

01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 2: You're ready to go. Well, I parked in the shade.

1257
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:44,320
Speaker 1: Oh, of course, on their lawn. I need to get

1258
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 1: into chicken salad. Maybe that's my problem.

1259
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:47,720
Speaker 2: Not enough protein.

1260
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:52,800
Speaker 1: It's the mayo, and it's not like mayo. I don't

1261
01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:56,000
Speaker 1: mind mayo. I love mustard, you do. I don't mind

1262
01:03:56,040 --> 01:03:59,120
Speaker 1: mayo on a sandwich or whatever. But when it's like goofy,

1263
01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:02,400
Speaker 1: it's on stage, the spotlight's on mayo, it's a little

1264
01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:03,520
Speaker 1: hard for me to deal with.

1265
01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:07,160
Speaker 2: Hm. I get that. What about you?

1266
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:10,560
Speaker 1: I would bring? I kind of only can bring cookies. Sure,

1267
01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:11,560
Speaker 1: their showstoppers.

1268
01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:13,120
Speaker 2: Are you baking them?

1269
01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:16,440
Speaker 1: Baking buying them and baking them? People are going nuts?

1270
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,000
Speaker 2: Are you going and and they're gluten free?

1271
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:21,520
Speaker 1: No, but I should get into gluten free because you

1272
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,080
Speaker 1: know we've gotten we've got gluten free people. Of course,

1273
01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:26,800
Speaker 1: but it's hard to I had, actually, speaking of Chicago,

1274
01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:28,680
Speaker 1: had the one of the best chocolate chip cookies in

1275
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:32,040
Speaker 1: my entire life, gluten free at Unfortunately I can't remember

1276
01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:32,880
Speaker 1: the name of the bakery.

1277
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:36,120
Speaker 2: Gluten free. It's not fucking around. And here's often what's

1278
01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:40,800
Speaker 2: in gluten free cookies, Just like more fat. Oh yeah,

1279
01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:43,880
Speaker 2: like a lot of butter beam cheese.

1280
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:48,720
Speaker 1: Maybe some nuts hold it together. So I would bring

1281
01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:49,720
Speaker 1: a chocolate chip cookies.

1282
01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:52,600
Speaker 4: I said fat in a good way, Like I'm not

1283
01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:54,000
Speaker 4: saying like they make you fat.

1284
01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:55,000
Speaker 2: I'm saying like.

1285
01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:58,880
Speaker 1: It's got a nice rich exactly butterinus to it. It's

1286
01:04:58,920 --> 01:05:00,320
Speaker 1: held together by crisco.

1287
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:02,880
Speaker 2: Coconut oil. There we go.

1288
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:07,840
Speaker 1: Although coconut coconut oil or like using it for vegan things,

1289
01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:10,720
Speaker 1: I'm not into it. Find a different substitute because then

1290
01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:11,560
Speaker 1: all I taste.

1291
01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:13,600
Speaker 2: Is coconut coke. That's true.

1292
01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:15,840
Speaker 1: What I'm hoping will be there will be like a

1293
01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:20,200
Speaker 1: nice summary salad with a crisp.

1294
01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:23,400
Speaker 4: Green That's a problem sometimes with summer salads because they

1295
01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:27,200
Speaker 4: have fruit, like if they got a strawberry pretty quick.

1296
01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:30,640
Speaker 1: So I like something, you know, I like it's a

1297
01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:34,000
Speaker 1: good slaw, but not a mayo based a vinegar based

1298
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:38,840
Speaker 1: interesting law, like what they've got red and green cabbage.

1299
01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:43,400
Speaker 1: You have vinegar, olive oil, a crunchy like a nut.

1300
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:46,160
Speaker 1: Maybe a ciche type thing.

1301
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:47,400
Speaker 2: Oh like a crowd.

1302
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:50,360
Speaker 1: Oh interesting, now, like a crouch, a crowd or a

1303
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 1: pickled thing is more of I need that to go

1304
01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:54,320
Speaker 1: with a meat or something. I should just throw that

1305
01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:54,840
Speaker 1: on a plate.

1306
01:05:55,520 --> 01:05:56,080
Speaker 2: Forget it.

1307
01:05:56,400 --> 01:06:00,800
Speaker 1: But a slaw, summer slaw. I'm into it. I think

1308
01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:04,360
Speaker 1: we answered that really beautiful way. We were both very honest.

1309
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:06,280
Speaker 2: Well, it's about to be the season of potlucks.

1310
01:06:06,440 --> 01:06:09,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true, so everybody's got to start thinking about

1311
01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:12,680
Speaker 1: what they'll bring. Well, I've got my hat.

1312
01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:14,040
Speaker 2: It looks great.

1313
01:06:14,120 --> 01:06:16,120
Speaker 1: It's a good hat, and it's nice because it's not

1314
01:06:16,800 --> 01:06:17,640
Speaker 1: obvious merch.

1315
01:06:18,560 --> 01:06:20,600
Speaker 2: Right, it's just more of a mindset.

1316
01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a mindset. You want to be there, you

1317
01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,400
Speaker 1: want to be in the And then, of course I

1318
01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:28,280
Speaker 1: have the joker who we love.

1319
01:06:29,560 --> 01:06:32,880
Speaker 4: Do you just have Do you just immediately donate all

1320
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 4: the stuff that is brought to you?

1321
01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:35,400
Speaker 2: Like that must be it?

1322
01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:39,800
Speaker 1: No, your house, my garage full of things. Fortunately we

1323
01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:41,400
Speaker 1: have the studio now where I leave a lot of

1324
01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:43,920
Speaker 1: things to just be used basically as set deck and

1325
01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:45,480

01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:48,960
Speaker 1: And listener, I'm so sorry that we haven't done more

1328
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:56,120

1329
01:06:56,160 --> 01:07:00,640
Speaker 1: but that's definitely playing into me responding to emails at venues.

1330
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:03,160
Speaker 4: I think we should do a live show called the

1331
