Finally, 15 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: I am it's so clear to me. It's so clear 16 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: to me that is going to be that year. I 17 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: mean it's symmetrical. First of all, they're equal, and then 18 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: it's of course the twelve year and the calendar of 19 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: the ancients, and so those two things alone, I mean, 20 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: it's it's numerology. I mean, when I woke up today 21 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: on UM January three, I saw um that it was 22 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: cold outside, and I actually looked up an almanac, um 23 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: that said when it's cold outside in January three, that 24 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: means the year is going to be perfect. Yeah. I 25 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: read that too, and it was so touch and go there, 26 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: because you know, you never know January three, if it's 27 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: going to be cold or tropical every year, it's a 28 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 1: real mystery. And and I did read that, and you know, 29 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: people say, oh, don't believe in that stuff, but um, 30 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 1: this was actually uh. Anthony Fauci said this. He said, 31 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: if it's cold on January three, it's gonna be If 32 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: it's cold on January three, then this year is going 33 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 1: to be a sleigh and a half Mauma. And he 34 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: said that in an op ed for The New York Times. 35 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 1: You know, we started saying malma, trying to overpronounce malma, 36 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: and now I can't say it normal. I have to 37 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: Jamie Lee. It's like Jamie Lee curtisying trauma in that video. 38 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: That's how we are with Mauma. Yes, Mama, yes, Mauma. 39 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: Um I okay. So predictions for the new year. I 40 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be sort of like I think it's 41 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 1: gonna all over again. No one has any problems everyone's 42 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: like bank accounts are chock full. Um, there's no such 43 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: thing as taxes. They've decided to do away with them. 44 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 1: And um, yeah, it's everyone's going to have sort of 45 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: a subtropical year. Um, but without the precipitation. Right, it's subtropical. 46 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: But it's not like because of global warming. It's because 47 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: the vibes are good. Yeah. Um. If we can bring 48 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: it back to the present day, the year in which 49 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: we are currently recording, I think it's important to address 50 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: that we're both cranky. Yes, we're both cranky. Um, but 51 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: you know what, though earlier today I was thinking back 52 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: to something that made me really smile, and I was like, 53 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: you know what if you feel like you're getting cranky, 54 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: which I was just think back to that what what 55 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: what made you smile? So I told you this, uh, 56 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: like a couple of weeks ago, and it happened. But 57 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: it was when I had that substitute yoga instructor and 58 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: he was sort of Uh. I would say, not, um, 59 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: what you would normally maybe assume as someone with biases 60 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: would be a yoga instruct He was a thirteen year 61 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: old boy. Yeah yeah, and he was really fucked up 62 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: looking kept talking about roadblocks. Yeah, it was. Um. He 63 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: was a he was a sort of older gentleman. He 64 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: was maybe close to sixty. Um. And he himself said, 65 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: just so that everyone can picture what I'm explaining, what 66 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: I'm talking about, he himself said that he's been told 67 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: he looks like William H. Macy, so that's sort of 68 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: what you can picture. Um. And I and he seemed, 69 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: you know, he had really good vibes, and I was like, wow, 70 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: I wonder if this guy is like a straight guy 71 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: that was into Buddhism in the eighties, Like that's the 72 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: sort of vibe, or if he's like an older gay 73 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: guy who was doing this on the side and I 74 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: couldn't crack it. I couldn't crack it. And he was, 75 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: you know, he talked in a sort of neutral voice, 76 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: so I couldn't tell if he if you know, which 77 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: which way he swung. Um to go back, of course. 78 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 1: And so then about fifteen twenty minutes of the class, 79 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: a song started and he said, Florence in the Machine. 80 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: I'm obsessed in. That moment just really brought me back 81 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: to the holiday spirit on a day when I wasn't 82 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: in it. Yeah, that is so powerful, Is there anything more. 83 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: I mean, if and if you're in a bad mood now, 84 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: I know, January three can feel sort of like a 85 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: colm down because it's no longer than you it's no 86 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: longer New Year's Day, and it's no longer the day 87 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: after Year's Day, where still um sort of new. I mean, 88 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 1: it's basically just a Tuesday. Yeah, I don't know. The 89 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: New year actually kind of always does it for me. 90 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: It like really does make me feel like, you know what, 91 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: let's restart, like that all of that year didn't count 92 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: and I it's I am grateful to always have naive 93 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: optimism and be like, you know what, fuck it, this 94 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: is the best year of my life starting now.

It's very personal, like what did 101 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: I do in the last year? In one way, that's 102 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: like that doesn't really feel good to just examine yourself 103 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: in isolation. No, you have to examine the whole world. 104 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: And and also you know, to think that your own 105 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: birthday is in your beginning is very Messiah complex, like 106 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: well you're not, You're not Jesus No. And also like 107 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 1: do you make like birthday resolutions?

Yeah, I've got 118 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: a really good feeling about it. Me too. I think 119 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: us being cranky on December is a sign that the 120 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: new year is actually gonna be better, because um, it's 121 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: like that thing where like one time I was listening 122 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: to a comedy podcast and they were talking about how 123 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: like they were filming like a late night set and 124 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 1: they bombed their their show right before the late night set, 125 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: and how that's actually a good sign because it means 126 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: you're actually gonna crush the late night set, of course. 127 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: And so I actually feel that way about um my 128 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: mood right now. We're the show you can sort of 129 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: if you can just flop flop, flop over and over again, 130 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: that means at some point you're gonna slay. Hey, nowhere 131 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: to go but up, nowhere to go but up? And 132 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: that has never been more true, sweetie. I don't know, 133 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: I actually kind of feel like our crankiness is coming 134 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: through too much. Is that bad? Okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. 135 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: That was that my fault? No, no, no, it's my 136 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: I think it's I don't. I think it's a mutual. Well, 137 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: here's what here, here's what I will say. When we 138 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: are in the mindset of it being January three, it's 139 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: not coming across. But then when we go back to 140 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: is coming across.

Wait, I 168 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: thought it was you know, it was Charlie, but no, no, no, 169 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: Charlie texted me about it out of the blue, and 170 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 1: then I was like, I'm on board. I want to 171 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: sign up for this project. And then we went to 172 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: two parties this weekend and I debuted it with the 173 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: help of charl Like. I was like, Charlie, come on, 174 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: because I'm sorry to say this, but you know we 175 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 1: were Sam and I were at one of those or 176 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: at least one of those parties, and I could have sworn. 177 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: I asked who owns it? And you said you did? 178 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: But maybe I must remember. No, I don't know. I don't. Um. Well, 179 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: I have a question, Richard. Would you define your friend 180 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: Charlie Barday as a litigious person? What does that word mean? 181 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: Is he going to find ways to pursue legal action? Now? 182 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: If you debut Pelly without him? My instinct says no, okay, okay, 183 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: I don't think he'd be upset with me. I don't 184 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: think so. Well, I'm not worried about it if he 185 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: gets upset I'm worried if he get if he gets legal, 186 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 1: if he gets legal. Yeah, well you know what if 187 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: it gets legal, if he gets legal, I am saying 188 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: on the record, on the record, if Charlie Barday two 189 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,719 Speaker 1: time two time Straighter Lab guests and one time Lab 190 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: should text him, should it be like would you be 191 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: upset if I said Pelly on the If he is upset, 192 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,199 Speaker 1: I've promised we will have him back on and hear 193 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: his side of the story. Pelly, So, Richard, what is Pelly? 194 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: Pelly is essentially um Literally, Charlie texted me out of 195 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: the blue. We both had a hundred degree fevers, we 196 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: had the flu at the same time, and he just 197 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: texted me out of the blue and was like, instead 198 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: of period, I'm gonna start saying Pelly, just out of 199 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: the blue. I was like, I was like, I'm I'm 200 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: a I want to do it. You were like Pelly. 201 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: And then so it really is that simple. It's just 202 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: you know, you say something someone's like instead of pere, 203 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: however you say period, just say Pelly. Just say Pelly. Yeah. 204 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 1: And so a sort of an example where you would 205 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: use it in a sentence is just like it's really 206 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: cold out today, Pelly, and so you have been you know, 207 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: this started and now you're sort of making it happen. 208 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: How has that journey gone? Um? Right, it's been. I've 209 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 1: gotten a few texts, like messages from friends being like 210 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 1: what is Pally? And I can tell they feel vulnerable 211 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 1: asking yeah, And even one friend was all right, my 212 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: coworker today, like I said it to him. Now I 213 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: say it without realizing I'm doing it. And so we 214 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 1: were just like talking, I don't even know, I don't 215 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: even know what I said. And I was like Pally 216 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: and then he was like Pally and then he was 217 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: like he started laughing and that He's like, you know, 218 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: to be honest, what is that? And then he told 219 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: me he like googled it, he was like researching. He 220 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: was like upset. He didn't know what that meant. He's like, 221 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: I'm out of the loop. I don't know what that is. Okay, 222 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 1: this is though, how I mean what I love about this? God, 223 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: It's just you know, so often something like on Fleet 224 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 1: for instance, you know, it's like there's a viral video 225 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: and then it catches on from there. But this is 226 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: really ground up, like this whole grassroots, grassroots, like even Charlie, 227 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: someone who someone who is very active on the Internet, 228 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: who who of course goes on about it. Yeah, but 229 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: he's like he decided in texted just you his close 230 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: friend because he knew that I blab. Yeah, he knew. 231 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: And neither of you. When I really appreciate about this 232 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: is that neither of you really ever defined it in 233 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: any written way or online, like you really are just 234 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: like we're gonna start saying it. We're gonna start saying 235 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 1: it and people will catch on because it's ultimately not 236 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: that complicated. It's not at all like like yeah, we 237 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: we we were talking about it on Sunday. We were like, 238 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: what if we just literally like I don't know, like 239 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: we make something like in the New Year, like and 240 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: we just sneak it in there and like don't even 241 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: give it not like we're just like I don't know, 242 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: like if him and I are like doing a video 243 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: or something, and then our characters are just like saying 244 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: like we're just like and that not even the Yeah, 245 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: so like I think I'm gonna call the car. Like 246 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: it's like the video is about like how someone has 247 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: a third ear in the back of their head and 248 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: they're like not me having a third ear and then 249 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: the other one's like Pally and then they just go 250 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: like just keep sneaking it in or something. It really 251 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: speaks to your ability as a performer, um to just 252 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: make something infectious. Because I'm really liking this whole process 253 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: where you know, Charlie wrote and of course executive produced 254 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: the project, and you are, you know, taking down on 255 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: the road. You're you're testing out in small rooms and 256 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: then yeah, exactly bigger rooms, you know, and just it's 257 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: just really taking off in this way. I feel the 258 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: movement because I even feel myself like like I don't 259 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: want to say it on this podcast because I want 260 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: to practice it in the mirror before I do. And 261 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: I'm like, totally I feel the same one. Don't overthink it. 262 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: It's so simple, you know what. I think every time 263 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: I've said it so far, I have really forced it. 264 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I can't wait for a natural. I 265 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: can't wait for a natural. By the end of this podcast, 266 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: there will be a natural place where I will say, 267 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: Pey feels so good, thank you.

Oh my god. Wow. 329 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: So like John Laney could say it. John Laney could 330 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: definitely say it. But here's the thing. But when he does, 331 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: then people will be like, Okay, I guess Pelly's over. 332 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: Well some you know, we will be, but like, there 333 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: will be a lot of people that will be like 334 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: wearing Pelly shirts at that point. That's true. I mean, 335 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: there will be like keep common Pelly. There will be 336 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: like sorry, keep coming on. There will be like, you know, 337 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 1: sort of um. I mean, I hate to say it 338 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: because this is not my story to tell, but there 339 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: will be feminine products that use Pelly to mean the 340 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 1: other kind of period and that. UM. I just think 341 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 1: what was so amazing about the rollout of this product 342 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: is the um you really created sort of an exclusiveness 343 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: that made people, you know, feel like they're on the 344 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: outside and in a way that really makes them want 345 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: to to understand Pelly. It really makes them want to 346 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: be able to perform it themselves exactly. Um. I found. 347 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: I mean when we were at this party a few 348 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: days ago and I was across the room and I 349 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: think I was even you know, maybe walking over to 350 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,440 Speaker 1: your section and hadn't even been to your section of 351 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: the party yet, so you know, I was already feeling 352 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: mothered in many ways off. Yeah, and so you um, actually, 353 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: as a group, ILL looked at me and said, Sam, 354 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 1: say Pelly, and I said, I don't know what that means, 355 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: and you said, just say it, just say Pelly. And 356 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: then I said Kelly, and then everyone goes and no. 357 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:25,880 Speaker 1: It felt it really felt um middle school bully, sort 358 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 1: of back of the bus vibes, but in a way 359 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:33,199 Speaker 1: that triggered such an emotional response that I said, I 360 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 1: will never from this point on, I will never not 361 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: know what Pelly is. Yeah, um for better or work 362 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: sometimes you need to do those tactics. The marketing is 363 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: just very genius. Yeah, the marketing, marketing. And I think Sam, 364 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 1: you're pointing to such an important part of Pelly, which 365 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,680 Speaker 1: is it sounds exclusive, but as soon as you figure 366 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: it's so obvious, it's like it's not like there's nothing complicated, 367 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: and so it's really kind of in that way poptimist. 368 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:14,360 Speaker 1: M m hm m hmmm. And Pelly helly Lly, Pellylly 369 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: just like so like yeah, Belly, Kelly, so like proud 370 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: of yourself. Yeah, proud of yourself for like punctuating whatever 371 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 1: your statement was. Yeah, Pelly, Belly should we do our 372 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: first segment and just know in our hearts that Pelly 373 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: will come back. Yeah. And I also just want to say, George, 374 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: thank you for bringing up Pelly. Yeah, I think, thank 375 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,479 Speaker 1: you so much. And if Charlie does get upset with 376 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:57,920 Speaker 1: me on January third, he probably won't because he'll be 377 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,640 Speaker 1: in a good mood I think in jail, right, it's 378 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: the new year. To Charlie's credit, this is the third 379 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: time we talked extensively about him on this podcast when 380 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: he has not been here. It's true, so I could see, 381 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: you know, at some point it's sort of like, Okay, 382 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: what's your guys deal? Like, you know, like I could 383 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: see him like reaching a breaking point. Yeah, I keep 384 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 1: talking about me like I don't know what's so freaking 385 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: funny about me, Like I'm just a guy, and like 386 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: even like your friend, I'm just writing words. Yeah. And 387 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: by the way, I mean, I do want to say, Richard, 388 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: you know you had and I'm not saying this to 389 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: blame you in any way, but thank you. There's a 390 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 1: sort of machiavellian you know, you you had the chance 391 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: to not debut Pelley if you wanted to really chicken 392 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: with Charlie. And you know, maybe when he was on 393 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,239 Speaker 1: a groundbreaking, critically acclaimed comedy podcast, he could have done 394 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: it himself. But I know I saw it in your eyes, 395 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: like you're like, I'm a star, I have the spotlight 396 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 1: on me now, I'm not going to let this moment pass. 397 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: What just so I could maintain a friendship, That's not 398 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,719 Speaker 1: what this is. No. I thought it so amazing that 399 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 1: you showed like this like Hollywood like cutthroat like mindset 400 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: sort of like like that's what we're really looking for 401 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: in you. Like yeah, and by the way, Richard, it's 402 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: not just that you showed that side of yourself, but 403 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 1: then you also stressed so much. You did the whole 404 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 1: like my dear friend Charlie. Oh, Charlie, let me find 405 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: the text. So you're really sort of it's like, I mean, 406 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: it's very like Taylor Swift doing the arrow when she 407 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,439 Speaker 1: talked about her girl squad and all of them you know, 408 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: of course hate her. It's like, you know, you're you're 409 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: you want to have it both ways. You want to 410 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 1: be known not as a diva, as as someone who 411 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: is friends with everyone, as someone who everyone supports, but 412 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: behind the scenes you're going on podcast and taking credit 413 00:25:54,280 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: for Pelly.

Yeah, we 506 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: need to get into the topic for the day. Um, 507 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: you guys, it's not happening naturally for me. Well you're 508 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: forcing it. You have to wait for a time. I'm 509 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: really forcing to get And it really is so annoying 510 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: because I was actually doing Do you ever say period 511 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: in your real life? I do, But I was doing 512 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 1: it so well at the party, and I actually it 513 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: felt so so good. Middle school bullying. Yeah, and now 514 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: it's but but you know what it's fine, it's fine, 515 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: we're gonna move on to the topic. We're gonna and 516 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: I have my whole life ahead of me to do. 517 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: You do you do? And also, this is what this 518 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: is what I'm predicting. I bet you when January three, 519 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: it's going to be natural. You're so right, You're gonna 520 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: listen to this episode and be like, I remember what 521 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: that young version of me exactly. It's like I was 522 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: still figuring figuring it out. The things I was worried about, 523 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about them now anymore. And that's actually 524 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: part of Okay, so this is the last thing I'll 525 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: say about Kelly. That's part of the appeal to where 526 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 1: there are three stages of Pelly. First, you feel like 527 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: an outsider because you don't know what it is. Then 528 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 1: you learn it and you're like, oh, it's so easy. 529 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 1: I'm I'm part of the club. And then you try 530 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: to do it and it's actually a little harder than 531 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 1: you think. Right, it's a little embarrassing at first, or 532 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,240 Speaker 1: it's kind of like exactly right, so it's too simple 533 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: that it's like I'm like, what is what's the I 534 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 1: must be doing something wrong exactly exactly and so then 535 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: finally fourth step is you do start doing it right 536 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: and it comes out and then it just happens and 537 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: it's just yeah, and it comes naturally to it's I 538 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 1: think it's really exciting. Sir Richard. We uh You and 539 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: I talked about the topic before the episode started that 540 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: Sam wasn't on the zoom at the time, so this 541 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: is something I needed flushing out. So well, you now 542 00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 1: get to tell Sam for the first time. When we 543 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 1: get to see his reaction, I mean, if them in 544 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,360 Speaker 1: to post it to YouTube, it's like Grandma's react, but 545 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: it's like Stam reacting to the topic. Yeah, it's it's 546 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 1: Pelly all over again. To be honest, outside it's straight. Yeah, okay, 547 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: my take it away. My topic stems from my experiences. 548 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:21,080 Speaker 1: I got a b f A, I went to art school, 549 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: and I studied photography, so I think my topic is 550 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 1: taking pictures. Wow, that is first of all the backstory 551 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 1: surprises me. I mean, Richard, I obviously think you're capable 552 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: of literally anything you put your mind too. I think 553 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: the inventor of Pelly Um, the rightful air of the 554 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:51,320 Speaker 1: Petty Fortune, can do anything he wants. However, I just 555 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: I am when used to be fair. I was like 556 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 1: in performance, in performance exactly exactly. I feel the same 557 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: to me. You read as classically trained, and really, I 558 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 1: would say, actually to a fall, yeah, it's it's a 559 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 1: little uptight sometimes, you know. Sometimes we're in conversation, you 560 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,439 Speaker 1: will immediately embody a character yeah, and I'm like, well, 561 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 1: calm down. I was just we're just ordering Latte's yeah, 562 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 1: and you're like, I'm a widow, m yeah, yeah, you're right. 563 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: And for me, it's like about like the way you 564 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: project your voice. It's like, okay, like we don't need 565 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: to like like you're not on stage right now, Like 566 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: you don't need to be like projecting to the back 567 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 1: of the room. You know what I mean. You're someone 568 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: who has done vocal warmups before I started this zoom. 569 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: But but what's interesting to me about that compared to photography, Photography, 570 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 1: by definition, is turning the camera the other way, turning 571 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,959 Speaker 1: the camera the other way, not towards your way usually. Yeah, 572 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 1: I mean, of course, unless you're taking a selfie, which 573 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,919 Speaker 1: I guess counts as a photo a selfie self portraits. Yeah, 574 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 1: that's but traditionally photography is an art form. They're taking photos, 575 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: You're taking photos of other things, You're documenting other things. Yeah, 576 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 1: maybe it's documenting that I feel. I mean, we could 577 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 1: certainly go in that direction, but I want you to 578 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: be not I want you to like embrace photography as 579 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 1: a topic. I think it's such a beautiful topic. I 580 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,280 Speaker 1: feel like you're not your second guessing yourself. I am second. 581 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: I feel really insecure right now. Okay, Richard, not means 582 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 1: a cure. I have to come up with like a 583 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 1: different phrase with that intonation. Everyone, Well, why what what 584 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 1: reads straight about photography to you? I just feel like 585 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:42,719 Speaker 1: what what reads straight about it? Is? Maybe okay personally 586 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 1: I'm totally projecting, but I'm like I feel when I 587 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: was like not out, I feel like I used it 588 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 1: as like a vehicle to kind of like have a 589 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 1: reason to be like in a space a little bit. 590 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 1: That's d of dramatic, but like but like you know, 591 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:05,160 Speaker 1: like I kind of just like I feel like it 592 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 1: was this way that I couldn't really face my own 593 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,120 Speaker 1: interiority so much. But I mean I was in a 594 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 1: way because I'm like taking pictures. There's a reason why 595 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 1: I'm reacting to something I see and then like at 596 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: you know, creating it together, like put it online, like 597 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: there's there's something I was trying to say, which is 598 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: like I'm gay. I think ultimately like that's all way, 599 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:31,680 Speaker 1: what my whole b f a that and so I'm 600 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: gay and I want to perform. It was just like 601 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,320 Speaker 1: it was photos of Giant. Yeah. Yeah, it was just 602 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: Cox on stage with a little mike, with little mic 603 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 1: and like red curtain, yeah, yours dressed as like Starlett's 604 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 1: cos dressed as different performers and Marilyn Monroe Cock, I 605 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,839 Speaker 1: want to be loved to buy you, I'd purchase guess 606 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 1: what I would purchase. And and by the way, that 607 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:08,840 Speaker 1: would literally at this moment in time do well, that 608 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: would definitely, I mean I could I mean I don't know, 609 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: you could just do it. I could just do it. 610 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 1: It could be merch Yeah, Sam and I will model. 611 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: Would you want to do a collapse stradio lab and me? Yeah, yeah, 612 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 1: Well we could do our our It could be our 613 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: heart dicks dressed as ourselves. So Sam's would have a 614 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 1: mustache and I would have a beer and a sort 615 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 1: of buzzed head glasses and we would have little podcast 616 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 1: my and it could be you know, we could be. 617 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like you could sort of 618 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: set up a photo studio and it could be like 619 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 1: the No Hate photos where they hate face, but it's 620 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:56,240 Speaker 1: each person like taking photos of their dicks as different starlets. Genius. 621 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 1: That actually is genius. Unfortunately. Yeah, like I feel like 622 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 1: you would of your thesis would have been a slagh 623 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 1: if we went to school together, right or right? It 624 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't have had the tension of the closet right. So, Richard, 625 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 1: do you believe that all photographers are straight or all 626 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: are gay but can't admit it? I think maybe more 627 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: so the latter than the first. I would I would 628 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: lean more towards that a little bit. But I think 629 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: just in general, like I don't know, like there's something 630 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 1: about like wanting to take a picture of like something 631 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 1: like a building or like anything, I guess whatever, like 632 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:43,840 Speaker 1: your surroundings, that just feels not always just in general, 633 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: can feel kind of um, like you're pulling away a 634 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 1: little from yourself or like you're saying there's there's a repressions, 635 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: repression of an emotional thing, and I think that's very straight. Yeah, 636 00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: totally doesn't make sense. I don't know, complete sense. No, 637 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 1: it's not about it at all. It's not about it 638 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 1: at all. I think the oppression thing makes sense. I 639 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 1: think also at its core and I understand that, you know, 640 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,719 Speaker 1: it is very easy to argue against this, but at 641 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:19,319 Speaker 1: its core it's very literal art form to where it's like, well, 642 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 1: it's straighter than painting, right, right, you're just like documenting 643 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 1: something or it's like it can also be like yes, 644 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 1: photography can be beautiful and it can be artistic, but 645 00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 1: it can also be so just like what it is. 646 00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 1: It's like getting or your book photos taken, getting passport photos, 647 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: a wedding photographer, Like is there anything straighter than someone 648 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 1: whose job is a wedding photographer? Just like taking the 649 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 1: same photos over and over again, you know, uh, just 650 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 1: reading a newspaper and you have like don't think of 651 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 1: like a really like artsy magazine cover shoot or something, 652 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 1: but just like they have to have a photo to 653 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 1: show you what the article is about. And like I 654 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:00,120 Speaker 1: just I'm thinking about like because I graduated with a 655 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,920 Speaker 1: lot of straight guys like an art school, studying photography, 656 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 1: and like I feel like there's some of them that 657 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 1: I remember, or maybe like the Great Younger where it's 658 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 1: just like they photographed like car parts and like it's 659 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: it's all like, oh, like I caught this in this 660 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 1: design and I don't know, like like it's it's like 661 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,280 Speaker 1: they're making it about something else. Do you think finding 662 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,800 Speaker 1: beauty in the existing world is gay or straight? I 663 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 1: think finding beauty in the existing world is I don't know, 664 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 1: you should ask that in the next Dan, what's that second? 665 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I should just ask that question. What do 666 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 1: you think? I think that's a genius question. I think 667 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 1: beauty in the existing things is straight because it's an 668 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: embrace of sort of status quo, and it's saying like 669 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:00,840 Speaker 1: we don't need to change any thing, like let's just 670 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,279 Speaker 1: it's like actually, let's like let's keep things how they are. 671 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 1: Actually exactly, the traditional family is like really good, like 672 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 1: like and you would think it's the opposite, But like 673 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 1: that guy, the guy in American Beauty that is like 674 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,720 Speaker 1: brought to tears by the plastic bag, could not be straighter, 675 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:21,240 Speaker 1: right exactly. I mean, why are you crying, like truly 676 00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 1: crying an orgasm because of a plastic bag? It's literally yeah, 677 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: And I feel like if you like that, you stick 678 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 1: right and I'm clean up your neighborhood, right, pick up, 679 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 1: dream of a better future? Pick that up? About take 680 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 1: a photo of it? And you do? You pick it up? 681 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm in the background, like walking up to him. What 682 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 1: the funk? Pick that up? I mean, yeah, finding okay? 683 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,279 Speaker 1: Whereas I'm trying to think, like I have to be 684 00:43:56,360 --> 00:44:00,120 Speaker 1: completely honest. I understand that photos can be some thos 685 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 1: are better than others. I do know this to be true, 686 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 1: and some photos are so gay well obvious, like photos 687 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: of dicks. I mean, gay photography is it's very own genre. Yes, yes, 688 00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 1: and it's actually straighter than straight photos because talk about literal. 689 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 1: It's like, at least straight photographers have the courtesy to 690 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 1: take a photo of plastic bag. Gay photographers are literally 691 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,560 Speaker 1: only taking photos of dicks right or like right, like 692 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 1: ripped guys like shirtless, which you know we over here 693 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 1: it's trade all have incorporated really celebrate, are you know? 694 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 1: I think if there were no tasteful photos of guys 695 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:47,719 Speaker 1: in various stages of nudity, what would we have? I 696 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: agree with that? Yeah, mhm, I mean Rembrandt right, I 697 00:44:55,080 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 1: don't think so. I don't think so, honey. So to me, 698 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:05,760 Speaker 1: it's like the two kinds of photography, are finding beauty 699 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 1: in the existing world or making something beautiful to photograph it? Yes, yes, 700 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 1: And so the question is are both of those straight? 701 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 1: Is any are like anie Lebowitz's photos straight? I would 702 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 1: argue yes, see, yeah, I think they're straight. Why would 703 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 1: you argue yes? Because it's so maybe what I'm equating 704 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:33,760 Speaker 1: in my mind with straight and in terms of photography 705 00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: is like, um, it's it's just serving its purpose. Like 706 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 1: it's so it's so just like literal and like direct 707 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 1: and and uh like mechanical like or really technical or 708 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 1: like something like that. Like it's like more about that 709 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 1: than like than so much like the actual meaning of 710 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 1: the thing or whatever. I feel like what you're like, 711 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. With a photo person, there's a lot 712 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:05,840 Speaker 1: of gear yes, exactly, when you have to be like 713 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,200 Speaker 1: a gearhead and be like, Okay, well I need this 714 00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 1: kind of light, I need this kind of lighting with 715 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:14,719 Speaker 1: a and I'm just yeah, and like they're always like 716 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 1: replacing the battery on the flag. I'm taking a picture 717 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 1: of my legs and I'm putting it next to a 718 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 1: picture of my mom. Yeah. Sam, You're so wise to 719 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 1: bring it back to the materiality of the apparatus that 720 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,400 Speaker 1: is being used, like, it's not like there's actually no 721 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 1: reason to take it so high concept. Like the reason 722 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,280 Speaker 1: it's straight is because you're literally using a tool grow 723 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 1: yeah right, like pick up a paintbrush and the tool 724 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 1: is like expensive and like you can like all these 725 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 1: different accessories, but none of the accessories like are feminine 726 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 1: at all. It's like, oh yeah, this is like the 727 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 1: Xcel w G two and it's like, oh really, oh interesting, Yeah, 728 00:46:54,719 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 1: I was going to get that. How much was that like, yeah, yeah, 729 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 1: you might as well be into cars exactly literally, yeah, absolutely, 730 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 1: So I guess the question becomes is the fact that 731 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 1: the smartphone democratized photography gay or straight? Well, I think 732 00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 1: it's pretty gay. And I was even gonna say, you know, 733 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 1: we brought up selfies earlier, but I do think the 734 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:27,319 Speaker 1: selfie as photography is inherently a queer form. Yes, definitely, yes, 735 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,719 Speaker 1: but that's because it's there's performance in it as well 736 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 1: as and also there's no technical element, like you're just 737 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 1: like this is what the Lord's completely I feel like 738 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 1: a selfie is totally just like inspired for the most 739 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:45,880 Speaker 1: very generally speaking, it's just like I'm just gonna going 740 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,480 Speaker 1: to capture this like I'm like feeling moself. It's like 741 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:52,000 Speaker 1: an emotional response to like how you how you look, 742 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:54,640 Speaker 1: how you're feeling, who you're with or whatever, whatever the 743 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:58,600 Speaker 1: reason that it's making you take a selfie and like 744 00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:02,439 Speaker 1: it's in the emotion tied to it. Richard. This brings 745 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: up a really interesting point. And I think you're kind 746 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:06,759 Speaker 1: of the intersection of both of these things where you 747 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,719 Speaker 1: literally have a b a fan photography and you know, 748 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 1: I've only even following you on social media for a 749 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 1: few months now, but you um post a lot of selfies. 750 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:18,440 Speaker 1: I think it's fair to say so as someone with 751 00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:24,320 Speaker 1: a degree in both um drag. That's not a drag. 752 00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 1: Damn you do. You're always doing the little middle finger thing, Richard. 753 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 1: I think your selfies are really beaudi they are, but 754 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: you agree there's a lot of them for listeners that 755 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. Me, I like do duck face with 756 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 1: like my middle finger in a b oh yeah at 757 00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:50,359 Speaker 1: my job. Yeah, you love doing duck face middle finger 758 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:56,359 Speaker 1: in the base. Yeah. Oh my god, you're doing it now, Kelly. Okay, sorry, Sam, 759 00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 1: you're getting at something so important. I want you out. 760 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,880 Speaker 1: I was gonna say like where do you like do 761 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:07,880 Speaker 1: you feel that like that has been your journey? Like, 762 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:12,560 Speaker 1: is that you accepting your queerness? Oh? Right to go 763 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:17,840 Speaker 1: from photographing in a professional context to simply taking selfies 764 00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 1: in a basement on your iPhone with is that? Like? 765 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 1: Is that what coming out is? Yeah? Coming to terms 766 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 1: with one's queerness For me, yeah, yeah, And that's why 767 00:49:32,520 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 1: I stand out in the photo industry. I don't see 768 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:44,560 Speaker 1: Ryan McGinley walking around being like palty. No, absolutely he might, 769 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:51,640 Speaker 1: I hope, so I do. I do agree that iPhone 770 00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:53,840 Speaker 1: like when something is shot on an iPhone that is 771 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 1: gay because literally a monkey could do it. That's yeah, yeah, 772 00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,880 Speaker 1: there's it's not yeah, it's not so technical. It's into it. 773 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 1: If it's intuitive, it's how you were literally born knowing 774 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 1: how to take a picture. We're born this way, knowing 775 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:18,240 Speaker 1: how it's born exactly. How's that for logic? That's probably perfect, Richard, 776 00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:20,279 Speaker 1: be honest. Did it hurt your feelings when I said 777 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,000 Speaker 1: that you take a lot of selfies? No? Actually it 778 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 1: actually really didn't. If anything, it made me think about it. 779 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 1: I go do I I guess I do it. That's 780 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:33,720 Speaker 1: a really big part of my think. Noutput yeah, my creative, 781 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 1: it's my art. But like selfies, it's not like selfie 782 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,319 Speaker 1: is like it's just me being like I look good. 783 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,080 Speaker 1: It's like I actually don't look good in all of them, 784 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:45,960 Speaker 1: Like I'm I'm kind of I'm being really like silly 785 00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 1: and I'm Cindy Sherman, right right. Yeah. Do you think 786 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:54,120 Speaker 1: anybody toasts selfies to be like I look good here anymore? 787 00:50:55,000 --> 00:51:01,440 Speaker 1: M m yeah, I think that's straight, right, straight? Yeah? Wow? 788 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 1: Or it's more just like basic yeah yeah yeah, most 789 00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 1: gay people are straight and that's that's true. Yeah, Okay, 790 00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:14,200 Speaker 1: So well, I was what I was thinking. I haven't 791 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:15,920 Speaker 1: seen many I feel like I used to see way 792 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:20,880 Speaker 1: more Twitter gays posting selfies that were just sort of 793 00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:25,360 Speaker 1: like Tuesday alert or like I felt felt weird today, 794 00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 1: like I guess I'm in the spirit of the holidays, 795 00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 1: and are these flattering selfies are not flattering flattering selfies, 796 00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,000 Speaker 1: and I feel like they've kind of gone away, like 797 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:37,759 Speaker 1: maybe it's a Twitter issue. But I feel like I 798 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:40,120 Speaker 1: literally think it might be a Twitter issue because I've 799 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 1: noticed this too, and now like there was just a 800 00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,880 Speaker 1: time when everything that would be suggested to me. It 801 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,120 Speaker 1: was when we recorded our episode with Sarah and we 802 00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:52,759 Speaker 1: were talking about captions that are like it's giving Turkey Girl, 803 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 1: because every second tweet with someone being like leg day 804 00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 1: more like day and it's like them at the gym. Yeah, 805 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 1: that has completely not completely, but disappeared in a way 806 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 1: that I'm sorry. But my of course favorite genre is 807 00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:14,400 Speaker 1: someone wearing the most normal outfit you've ever seen and 808 00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:18,799 Speaker 1: then posting I'm serving dad on a c double show. Yeah. Yeah, 809 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,120 Speaker 1: well the one they always do also is like the 810 00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 1: Pixar Dad like they're like and it's like, yeah, he's 811 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:32,360 Speaker 1: a guy with a mustache, like you have a mustache, 812 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:42,440 Speaker 1: Like it's fine. I want to address one more thing. Okay, 813 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:44,400 Speaker 1: well I'm trying to think of other sort of cliche 814 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:50,439 Speaker 1: types of photos. Like another one is polaroids. Yes, polaroids are. 815 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:53,400 Speaker 1: It's funny. It's like what we were saying like earlier 816 00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:56,760 Speaker 1: about like what were we talking about before we recorded. 817 00:52:56,840 --> 00:53:00,120 Speaker 1: I think we were talking about how something Oh, like 818 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:03,800 Speaker 1: the screenshot that you sent Sam that's very like m 819 00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 1: I A like the cover art of that album with 820 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,400 Speaker 1: like a bunch of Yeah, Sam, screen was kind of 821 00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 1: covered in different QuickTime windows and he was like, it 822 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 1: looks like the m I A cover that is sort 823 00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 1: of digital brutalist. And then I was like, my my 824 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:21,840 Speaker 1: intuition was like, that's so two thirteen, that's so like Tumbler, 825 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:25,239 Speaker 1: it's so b f A, so s v A, that's 826 00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 1: so pratt whatever, and like but then you brought up 827 00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:29,640 Speaker 1: a point You're like, that's so funny that like we 828 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:34,239 Speaker 1: referenced it there when it is referencing like nineties clip 829 00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 1: are or like whatever. I feel like Polaroids is kind 830 00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 1: of in a similar model. It's just like cyclical, but 831 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:44,479 Speaker 1: then I'm sure it changes each time it comes back. 832 00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:47,680 Speaker 1: It serves like a or I don't know, appeals to 833 00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:51,360 Speaker 1: maybe like in a different way. Yeah, like a polaroid 834 00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 1: today is doing like two hipster culture right exactly. It's 835 00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,040 Speaker 1: harkening back to that and two thousand and ten. When 836 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,800 Speaker 1: it was actually that, it was like whoa like and 837 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:05,200 Speaker 1: it was like hard to find film and it was like, 838 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:10,000 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, like this really remarkable. It felt very 839 00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:13,759 Speaker 1: like I don't even know what the word is. It 840 00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:16,759 Speaker 1: is crazy to live through what I'm saying. I feel 841 00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:18,640 Speaker 1: like we are the age where we're living through the 842 00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 1: second wave of nostalgia cycles in a way that is 843 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,760 Speaker 1: actually terrifying. Yeah, it kind of bums me out. Actually 844 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 1: I missed feeling just authentically good about stuff. Yeah, I 845 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 1: mean like this is actually really cool. Yeah, because I 846 00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:35,800 Speaker 1: hate I never want to be the person that's like like, 847 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:39,280 Speaker 1: oh my god, they don't even know, like that's actually 848 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 1: from this album and it's actually a cover. Like I 849 00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:46,480 Speaker 1: hate when people, oh, they don't even know that. That 850 00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:51,440 Speaker 1: shows just like a pastiche of eighties sitcoms, like like Shot. 851 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:57,880 Speaker 1: But then someone's going to make a show that's about 852 00:54:57,920 --> 00:54:59,719 Speaker 1: two gay guys making a podcast and one of them 853 00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:02,480 Speaker 1: has a mustache, and and we're gonna have to be like, hey, 854 00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: you don't even know that was about Oh it's so cruel, 855 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,840 Speaker 1: what a cruel world? Wait, okay, I also want to 856 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,439 Speaker 1: say about photography. One time I met this like really 857 00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 1: really christian guy, um who was a photographer, and he 858 00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:21,120 Speaker 1: would like only take pictures of like water and like 859 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:25,799 Speaker 1: like flowers and ducks and stuff, and um that felt 860 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:32,480 Speaker 1: extremely closeted guy to me. Totally. I could see that. Yeah, yeah, 861 00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:36,799 Speaker 1: what's the deal with nature photography? I mean nature photography, 862 00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 1: if I remember correctly, probably one of the first subjects 863 00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:48,880 Speaker 1: captured when we figured out the camera OBSCUREA we were 864 00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,160 Speaker 1: we were like, okay, we're gonna this big. I guess 865 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:53,960 Speaker 1: we'll take a photo of amount of we will capture 866 00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:56,800 Speaker 1: something that will be still and it's our very earth. 867 00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 1: So there's that origin to landscapes and or nature or anything. 868 00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:05,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, But I don't know, but then there 869 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:08,399 Speaker 1: are ways to I don't know. It's one of those 870 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 1: things that's like like that guy you're describing, that guy 871 00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 1: taking pictures of like ducks or whatever, like like I 872 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:21,000 Speaker 1: could totally see that being like this introspective um like 873 00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:26,520 Speaker 1: expression or like you you're wanting to express something but 874 00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:28,719 Speaker 1: you just can't. I mean, if picture says more than 875 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:33,200 Speaker 1: a thousand words, okay, and I'm so happy you brought 876 00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,600 Speaker 1: that up. Well, okay, first of all, I think we 877 00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 1: can all agree that nature photography either means you have 878 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:40,600 Speaker 1: reached a state of nirvana where you're one with God 879 00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 1: or your closeted Yes, yes, yes, um so that's fine, 880 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 1: except like photographing like lions or something like that's so straight, 881 00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,520 Speaker 1: Well that that's because they're masculine. Yeah, yeah, Like the 882 00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:57,200 Speaker 1: National Geographic Wildlife Photography Contest is one of the straightest 883 00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:58,560 Speaker 1: things I ever heard of in my life, and then 884 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,759 Speaker 1: always like what wins is like something coming out of 885 00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:04,320 Speaker 1: the water holding a fish, but you know, of course congrats, 886 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:07,400 Speaker 1: of course. I mean catching a fish on camera is 887 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 1: really hard. They're so fast, by the way, I'm impressed. 888 00:57:10,719 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 1: I'm impressed with people that play football too, but I 889 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:15,839 Speaker 1: don't think it's ethical. I'm actually not then impressed. Yeah, 890 00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 1: I'm not either. I could do it. I mean literally 891 00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 1: put me in. That's actually like of all the sports, 892 00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:23,480 Speaker 1: that's like the one where I'm like, what are you 893 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 1: even doing? What are you even doing? I know, literally 894 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:28,760 Speaker 1: all you have to do is like knock your head 895 00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:31,439 Speaker 1: against another person's head. Yeah, like I guess the person 896 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 1: that throws the ball. There's a lot of like pressure 897 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:37,400 Speaker 1: because you don't have much time, but it's like who cares? Yeah, 898 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:43,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, yeah, no, I I agree football socks. 899 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:54,760 Speaker 1: Final thoughts. I want to get everyone's final thoughts on 900 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 1: the following question. Is a picture worth a thousand words? 901 00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:02,640 Speaker 1: Thank you for asking about I think, um, honestly, a 902 00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:05,280 Speaker 1: lot of times, No, I agree. I think that it's 903 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,880 Speaker 1: like so messed up to even say that. Sometimes I'm 904 00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 1: like that's like being like because like I feel like, 905 00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 1: actually it's like kind of wasteful because you can with 906 00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:19,440 Speaker 1: about ten words you can create like a beautiful image 907 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 1: in someone's mind. I completely agree. Yeah, it's actually like 908 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 1: so offensive and you and we have to have more 909 00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:27,440 Speaker 1: respect for the written word. The idea that you took 910 00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:29,760 Speaker 1: a photo what on your iPhone and you think that's 911 00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:33,320 Speaker 1: worth a thousand thousand words, it's like duck and sucking 912 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:36,840 Speaker 1: out of your mind. Unbelievable. It's fucking crazy. I mean, 913 00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:43,000 Speaker 1: it's like picture prompts and no one wants to do those. Wait, 914 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:45,920 Speaker 1: what are picture prompts you have in like standardized tests 915 00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:48,560 Speaker 1: or something like. Um, there's like they show you a 916 00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 1: picture and you just have to come up with a 917 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:55,720 Speaker 1: store like five paragraphs literally a thousand words. But guess 918 00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 1: what though, those are a thousand words that like, but 919 00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:01,240 Speaker 1: you're it's all you came up. Yeah yeah, you can 920 00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:04,880 Speaker 1: be inspired, right right, But it's like it's not actually 921 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:09,680 Speaker 1: worth a thousand words. It's not actually thousand words. You're 922 00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:12,880 Speaker 1: forced exactly, and you are elevating the photo by it 923 00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:16,560 Speaker 1: by accompanying it with your thousands. I think a photo 924 00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 1: is worth upwards of twenty words. Do you know what? 925 00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:25,160 Speaker 1: Here's what I think is that. Ultimately it depends and 926 00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 1: if you show me a photo that's literally just like 927 00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:30,760 Speaker 1: to use this sort of cliche example, someone's brunch, someone's 928 00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:33,760 Speaker 1: instagramming their brunch. Guess what that's worth exactly one word, 929 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:40,120 Speaker 1: and that word is brunch. Yeah, maybe two words brunch, binch. 930 00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:54,040 Speaker 1: That was delicious. Um. Great, photos are not worth a 931 00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:57,240 Speaker 1: thousand words, um, but you know what some words are 932 00:59:57,320 --> 01:00:03,560 Speaker 1: worth a thousand words? Great? Like yeah, exactly, like or 933 01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 1: like the word um, effervescent or juxtapis Oh my god, 934 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:11,520 Speaker 1: Oh you know what word is worth like two thousand 935 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:16,560 Speaker 1: words right now? Prescriptive I love people and not a 936 01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:19,080 Speaker 1: medical Oh my god, of course, being like, oh you're 937 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:22,320 Speaker 1: being like, I don't want to be prescriptive, but tell 938 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:26,680 Speaker 1: me whatever. I'm like, exactly, Yeah, I love that. Yeah. 939 01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 1: And you know you know what word I hate? Prescriptive 940 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:32,320 Speaker 1: to me? It opens up my world. I I so 941 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:34,880 Speaker 1: want to know what is or is not prescriptive. No 942 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:37,080 Speaker 1: word I hate right now that is being overused. The 943 01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:42,120 Speaker 1: word un serious. Oh yeah, have you seen that, Richard? No, 944 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:49,800 Speaker 1: I think un serious might be like your Pelly Hope 945 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:54,480 Speaker 1: not because it's a flop. No, I hate un serious. 946 01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:59,439 Speaker 1: It's such as those stupid very Twitter lazy. It's Twitter. Yeah, 947 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:03,040 Speaker 1: and it's also pretending you're smart, like you're un serious 948 01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:07,080 Speaker 1: for using the word on serious. Dumbass. Yeah, just there's 949 01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:09,840 Speaker 1: words for that. We don't even be like like open addictionary. 950 01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:13,160 Speaker 1: You don't have to say unsous. Yes, silly, I don't believe. 951 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't really use Twitter. So you think 952 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 1: you're better than that. That is for the best. But 953 01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:22,080 Speaker 1: this Charlie post selfies on Twitter sometimes.

That was 965 01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:06,440 Speaker 1: really satisfying. It's kind of like one of my most 966 01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:10,160 Speaker 1: profoundly held beliefs, like moving towards a visual culture was 967 01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:15,440 Speaker 1: a mistake. Totally. Yeah. Wow, we need to get back 968 01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 1: to the written word. Everyone needs to be reading newspapers.

It's 971 01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:31,440 Speaker 1: January three. And by the way, this actually really ties 972 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 1: back into Pelly because you created a new word. You 973 01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:38,800 Speaker 1: and Charlie excuse me, created in your word. And actually, 974 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:41,400 Speaker 1: rather than taking a selfie, why not try to create 975 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:46,480 Speaker 1: a new word. Yes, that is the challenge. Create a 976 01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 1: new word, a new word, and have fun and put 977 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:54,320 Speaker 1: down your creating new word and fucking sell it and 978 01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:58,960 Speaker 1: get out there and sell it. Yeah, pitch it like 979 01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:03,800 Speaker 1: make it work, like like nobody handed Richard anything, and 980 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:10,800 Speaker 1: yet he made Pelly happen exactly. He's just like photography. 981 01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:14,480 Speaker 1: The idea that the average person thinks of photo is 982 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 1: more important than Pelly is so infuriating to me. I'm pissed. 983 01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 1: I'm actually furious. Wow, So rarely can you be like 984 01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:27,800 Speaker 1: I invented a word?

I just watched the film Bones and All, 1074 01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 1: where Timothy shadow May plays Accountable, and I found myself thinking, 1075 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:33,639 Speaker 1: is this a metaphor for homosexuality? Is this a metaphor 1076 01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:37,360 Speaker 1: for drug abuse? Is this a metaphor for addiction? Is 1077 01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:40,920 Speaker 1: this a metaphor for adolescents? And guess what, stupid whore, 1078 01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:43,280 Speaker 1: that's me talking to myself. It doesn't have to be 1079 01:09:43,360 --> 01:09:45,799 Speaker 1: a metaphor because we're not in the fucking ninth grade. 1080 01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:49,719 Speaker 1: So maybe try enjoying art for what it is, letting 1081 01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:54,240 Speaker 1: it sink into your little brain for multiple days, weeks, 1082 01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:57,519 Speaker 1: and even months, and actually appreciating it rather than trying 1083 01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:00,880 Speaker 1: to write a book report. And with that, I say, 1084 01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:04,479 Speaker 1: Happy New Year and let's get it, kings and queens. 1085 01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:10,679 Speaker 1: Um that's a beautiful one. It's uplifting. You know. Someone 1086 01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:14,240 Speaker 1: told me that it's like a metaphor for um, like 1087 01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:20,439 Speaker 1: not eating meat. Oh wow, yeah, someone would say that. Um. 1088 01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:22,720 Speaker 1: I also saw that movie A weird movie. Alert.

I was just like weird, 1091 01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:31,480 Speaker 1: Like I was kind of like I felt nothing emotionally, 1092 01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:35,599 Speaker 1: but like enjoyed the swing.

I do 1099 01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:57,760 Speaker 1: think the girl Taylor Wressell, I loved her, she was 1100 01:10:57,840 --> 01:11:00,000 Speaker 1: so good. But I don't know.
