I guess there's 12 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: an a lot of sad women that I feel the 13 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: same way as you do. So what's new with you, Cinti? Oh, well, 14 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say sad, but you know, I actually I 15 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: have some big news. So, as many of you know, 16 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: my ex husband did leave me for an unnamed real 17 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: house life of New York. Yeah we know, Cindy, you 18 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: bring it up every episode. Well, well we have a 19 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: little update. It turns out her contract wasn't renewed for 20 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: a new season and he's gone ahead decide to come 21 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 1: back to me. So and you believe him he's lied before. Well, 22 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: he said I'll be back next week as soon as 23 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: she's done paying to have his stuff moved out. You 24 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: know the price is steep for moving cause he's moving 25 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: back in here. We lived together, Cindy. I've taken over. Yeah, 26 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: but that doesn't mean you can't stay. I know that 27 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that. But I turned his man cave into 28 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: a prop closet, and I am not having California closets 29 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: coming in and redo it. It was very expensive. I 30 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: already got out of paying for it once and I 31 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: spent all that money that I saved on the Student 32 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 1: Theater Society. I gave it to them because remember when 33 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: I took the money from the bake sale and everybody 34 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: got into so I paid it back. But the point 35 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: is I did save it from California closets. Yeah, well, 36 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: you know what, You're right. I'm sure you can find 37 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: some other space. Maybe we can get in a little 38 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: cupboard or something for for Yeah, maybe that's where we 39 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: can put his body. I'm just I'm not here for Cindy. 40 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: But in the meantime, let's just move on and save 41 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: unpleasant conversations that nobody cares about, like this one for 42 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: our ears only. Gotcha? Sorry, yeah, great, that's what listeners 43 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: get for asking to hear what's going on with Cindy, 44 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: So onto me as you know, um, last week Rent 45 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: was on hold the production and it is back on 46 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,119 Speaker 1: and I could not be more stressed. I have invited 47 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: so many, thank you, so many friends from the industry 48 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 1: are coming. The biggest web series pioneer on the East Coast. 49 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: The head of craft services for the Wendy Williams show 50 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: in New York City will be there. The audience wrangler 51 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: from the Tonight show I have an in with and 52 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 1: he said he'll be coming to the show, so several 53 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: ushers from different Broadway shows venues. I mean, it's it's 54 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: a lot. I mean, you must be a little bit nervous, right, 55 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: A lot. It's a lot. It could potentially change my 56 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: entire life. I can't believe it. I just it's just 57 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: it's all happening finally, but in some unfortunate news. You know, 58 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: I like to be vulnerable. I've been brought to the 59 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: Disciplinary Board because someone that listens to my show is 60 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: a rat and has hold the principle, Miss any Joe Fletcher, 61 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: the disparaging things I've been saying about her, her family, 62 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: and some of the students of Lakeland High in general. 63 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: Oh no, it's not, Oh no, Cinti, it's oh no, 64 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: big surprise. Artists like me are never appreciated in their time. 65 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 1: I'm like Picasso in that way, or um Jody Picult. 66 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: You know, it's sure, it takes a minute. The important 67 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: thing I must put on the table and just say 68 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: is that I do not apologize. In fact, if I'm 69 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: going to apologize about anything, it's going to be for 70 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: thinking too big for such a small minded school, which 71 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: brings me to our first segment, bell even or not 72 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,679 Speaker 1: that never gets old. No, I know, it's such, it's good. 73 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: It's good. I'm I'm a marketing genius. That's right, Sinti. 74 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: It's believe it or not. And it's a very important 75 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: addition of this because there's a chance for me to 76 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: get all the rumors surrounding Lakeland High out on the 77 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: table before I'm forced to cancel my radio show. You know, 78 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: I'm being silenced, but who wasn't you know a lot 79 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: of huge people were silence in their day. Lucille Ball. 80 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: There was something about her, I believe actually in her time, 81 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: you know, she had the show and there was something 82 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: where they thought she was, I think a communist. And 83 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: now she's being played by Nicole Kidman, so anything can happen. 84 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: I just have to get it out. So Miss Amy 85 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: Joe Fletch, her the lesbian principle of Lakeland High, is 86 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: threatening to release me of my duties of being a 87 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: teacher and theater department head because she just doesn't understand 88 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: how important it is for an artist to express themselves. So, 89 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: since Ms Fletcher just loves ruining people's lives, I thought 90 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 1: maybe i'd mentioned the fact that she's potentially stealing from 91 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: the very school she pretends to care about so deeply. Yes, 92 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: since I even have evidence. Last year, you remember she 93 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: bought a brand new used Ford Taurus for her wife, 94 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: Bonnie Leather interiors. Okay, Bonnie, you'll remember attends the gym 95 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: Jim's aren't free. The last time I checked, and I 96 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: heard Amy Joe discussing the newest season of Ozark with 97 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 1: another teacher. Ozark, you may know, only streams on Netflix, 98 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: which also costs money. Costs money, it does, we don't 99 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: have Netflix. What we have your ex husband's password? Well, 100 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: my ex husband's ex girlfriend, but that might be expiring 101 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: soon because her contract did not renew. Well, we'll text her, 102 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: we'll find out. Um, but listen. After an Instagram deep 103 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: dive for the cause, I saw that Amy, Joe, and 104 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: Annie have been going on vacations upstate to some luxurious 105 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: resort with a pool. But yeah, I'm sure everything's completely 106 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: on the books. Okay for our listeners, you can't see it, 107 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,119 Speaker 1: But that was sarcastic. He just rolled his eyes. Yeah, 108 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: I did hard. I would also like to mention the 109 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: gym teacher, Mr Ryan, has been taking the bus to work, 110 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: which leads me to believe he's gotten another d u 111 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: I and had his license revoked. I had a friend 112 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: who went to college with his ex girlfriend, and from 113 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: what I understand, it wouldn't be that out of character 114 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: for him. And finally, I need to say the real 115 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: reason I think I'm being brought to the disciplinary board. 116 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: It's because I'm too real and I tell things like 117 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: they are not wrapped up with a pretty little bow. 118 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: So Miss Fletcher and the sheep that run this public 119 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: and I use air quotes with that school can't handle 120 00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: someone who's confident and talented, which brings me to a 121 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: new segment. Classes that are completely pointless. Oh, Stephen, do 122 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: we think that this is a good idea? You're right, 123 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: I think it's an amazing idea. So I'm also going 124 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: to discuss what teachers should be replaced. Okay, classes that 125 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: are pointless? Uh? Intro to biology, I've seen Planet Earth. 126 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: I've seen all the planet Earth too, and my Planet 127 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: on Netflix. And that's a way more than you would 128 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: learn in miss Jaffies biology class. And she smokes cigarettes. Okay, 129 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: Class two Forensics, I understand it. I get it. It's fun. 130 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: The new class has garnered a lot of interests from students, 131 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 1: But my question is, why are we literally training our 132 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: students on how to get away with murder? Well? See, 133 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: I think the point of the class is to teach 134 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: the kids how to solve crimes that seems somehow even 135 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: more dangerous. You know, I don't necessarily think so. You 136 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: also let your fairweather husband get a life insurance policy 137 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: on you, so I don't know that you're the best 138 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: person to discuss potential murder plots. Since Okay, next class 139 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: that needs to be canceled physics. It's obvious. We don't 140 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: need an explanation for that pottery. Did you know there's 141 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: a pottery class? Are you serious? These kids can't appreciate pottery. 142 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: Who even uses pottery anymore? Well, you see, it's it's 143 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: for like making plates and mugs and stuff. Nobody uses 144 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: glass plates and cups anymore. My god, I've only used 145 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: paper plates and styrofoam cups since the early two thousand's 146 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: so much easier, easy clean up. Are you sure you've 147 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 1: seen all of planet or because you know those things 148 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: are watched on silent Yeah, they're They're not so great 149 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: for the environment, the styrofoam and oh environment. That reminds 150 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: me environmental science canceled or the teacher at least should 151 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: be replaced. Did you know that she has adult braces? 152 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: What message does that send to our students? I mean, 153 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: you know, I guess it doesn't get better. It does 154 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 1: not get better, not if you're teaching environmental science at Lakeland. 155 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: I'll tell you that, miss pedigrew. Okay, of six, we 156 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: all have smartphones. It's absolutely pointless google it um in business. 157 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: Most of these kids are queer. Let's be realistic. None 158 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: of them are going to end up going into business. 159 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: I'm glad that I could get that out because who 160 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: knows which way this is gonna go. Because today we 161 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: have a very special interview guest.

I 173 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: do have to let you know I am I am 174 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: not qualified, I know, but I will help you and 175 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: support you, Stephen as much as I can. Well, well, 176 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: I feel on or bound to answer some of the 177 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: things that have been said already on this podcast. Okay, 178 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: number one that I'm not stealing, Well, I'm gonna need 179 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 1: proof of that, Okay. Bonnie's parents passed away, which you 180 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 1: know because they were sucked up in a tornado and 181 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: it was huge news in the town. So you know 182 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: that that must have been. That must have been when 183 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: we had canceled the cable. I didn't know. You've made 184 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: many comments about it. You seem to find it very funny, 185 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: so it's it's interesting for you to forget it now. 186 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: I find it ironic. Bonnie's parents were sucked up in 187 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: a tornado, and we got a little bit of money 188 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: from that, and we got a little a tiny bit 189 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: of money. So you made money after having to pick 190 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: her parents up off the highway being sucked up. And 191 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: you know that, and you brought it up. You brought 192 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: it up to upset me, and now here I am, 193 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: and I'm upset. The house landed on the wrong witch. 194 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: That's all I have to say. Well, Steve, and you've 195 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: said that before, you wrote that down to say it 196 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: to me. I've had it written down since the day 197 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: it happened. Of course you did, since the day you 198 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: told me that I couldn't play alphabet in Wicked last year. 199 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 1: I said, how fucking ironic? Of course you did Bonnie's parents. 200 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: They had a common that's also from Chicago, which you 201 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: wouldn't let me perform the musical. I've explained many times 202 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: that it is not appropriate for you to play parts 203 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,320 Speaker 1: in the play. The play is for the students to 204 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: learn about theater too, maybe decide that that's their passion, 205 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: or to just have a good time as children. Oh 206 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 1: my god, a good time. That is what you have 207 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: to provide. You hired the best Broadway has to offer 208 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: to teach children a good time. You might as well, 209 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: uh send them down to to math, to the math 210 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 1: class where they can do little times tables. They're always 211 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 1: so excited to run off to math after theater. I 212 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: think that math and theater are equally valuable. I've told 213 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: you that many times, which is why it's so hurtful 214 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: to me to find out that you've been making allegations 215 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: of such a serious nature on this podcast. To find 216 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 1: out that you're just referring to me as lesbian principle, well, 217 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 1: which I've asked you not. It's neither here nor there. 218 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: But I don't see it is necessary to say if 219 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: the flat shoe fits, and now we're talking about my 220 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 1: flat feet, Well, listen. I read it's the below the 221 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: belt nature of the podcast, as we've discussed, and the 222 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: salacious nature of many of the things that you're saying 223 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 1: that has created such a problem for us here today. Wow. Okay, well, 224 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: since you have such a docket here, why don't you 225 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: explain this to me? Why do you hate creative people 226 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: so much? And me specifically? I do not? You? Have 227 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: you not? Stephen the art teacher told me that you 228 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: yelled at him as well, So don't think that I 229 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: came here today without my receipts miss thing. Okay, Well, 230 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 1: if Drew has a problem with our conversation from last Thursday, 231 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: he can take it to me privately. His emails said 232 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: that it's in I read it. I do not hate 233 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: creative people. I have allowed you to put on rent 234 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: at enormous difficulty to myself and to the people who 235 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 1: answer my emails. Do you have any idea? Oh so 236 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: she doesn't answer her own emails? Okay, good to know. Yes, 237 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: I've had to get an email service because of the 238 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: emails that I have been receiving, not only because of 239 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: this podcast, but ever since you started with the ad 240 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: campaign for Rent, which I did not approve. Any of 241 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: those images. Those were printed off of Google dot com. 242 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: It's public domain. And I think that the drug paraphernal 243 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: adds to what is at the heart of the issue. 244 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: I understand that. I understand that I also have allowed 245 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: you to take many liberties with the script, with replacing 246 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: HIV with COVID, which I've told you I find to 247 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: be tasteless. That was creative. That was so creative. Well, 248 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: we differ on that and socially relevant. Yes, I thought 249 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: the coughing. I thought Mimi coughing the entire way through 250 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: her her solo number I Want to Go Out. It 251 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 1: was iconic. Okay, I think that it makes the plot 252 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 1: it doesn't make sense, it makes it make less sense. 253 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: And also it's a sense that, you know what whatever, 254 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: what I'm saying is, I don't hate creative people. I've 255 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: given you a lot of creative liberties at the school. Well, 256 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 1: then let me ask you this. How come in two 257 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: thousand three you tweeted that you would rather and I 258 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: quote die than see a three hour play. Why do 259 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: you hate theater so much? I just that's pretty damning. 260 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: It was in two thousand three. It looks like November one, 261 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: two thousand three. Um, okay, I will say that I 262 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: disavow that comment. I put a comment out there to 263 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: be honest. Bonnie and I were having a bit of 264 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: an argument. We were supposed to go out. I didn't 265 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: want to go out. I tweeted something hastily. Bonnie and 266 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: Clyde weren't getting along, am I Clyde? Yeah, because you 267 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: steal I'm Clyde. I'll fact check it, but I believe 268 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: that makes you Clyde. Yeah. Okay, Well we've gone as 269 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: that for Halloween a million times. Well that's creative. I'll 270 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 1: be honest. That's a good costume. I like that costume. 271 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: Thank you. So listen, how come last year when cheerleading 272 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: coach Benson overdose Sun Riddlin and hold Brew, you brought 273 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: in an outside higher instead of taking a chance on me. 274 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: That is not what happened to him. That is not 275 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: instead of taking a chance and saying, you know what, 276 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: you can also coach? What is it called palms cheerleading? Well, Stephen, 277 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,160 Speaker 1: you know what. I'm gonna be dead honest with you. 278 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 1: It is because I have never seen you interact with 279 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 1: the cheerleaders in a positive way. What is that supposed 280 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: to mean? Ever? I'm trying to get them to be better. 281 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: I've never even seen you act neutral towards them. Well, 282 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: it's open hostilities every time you interact with them. I 283 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: need an example of that. I demand an example. Do 284 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 1: you want to talk about when you pulled Ashley Bennington's hair, Well, 285 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 1: that was a different situation. When you pulled her ponytail 286 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: right out? She listen. I told her, no fucking ponytails 287 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:56,479 Speaker 1: at spring Jubilee? What is it called? The plutes off? 288 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: It's not your place. I've told you it's not your 289 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: place to just what hairstyles the girls can wear to 290 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: the Spring Jubilee. There's no there was no one back 291 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 1: there telling these girls how to do their hair. Coach 292 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: Benson with snorton crushed riddling off of toilet seats. Okay 293 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: in your school and I'm sitting on my thumb in 294 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: the bleachers. It's not correct. Okay, what's again? It's not 295 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 1: appropriate for you to be in the girl's locker room. 296 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 1: I don't care if you're doing hair, makeup whatever. That's 297 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 1: not acceptable. Well, I have to tell them what is 298 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: looking bad and what is looking good. Their reputation affects mine. 299 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: It doesn't because I exactly for this reason. I did 300 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,479 Speaker 1: not put them in your You have nothing to do 301 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 1: with them, Okay, And in fact, I've actually set up 302 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: the schedule so that I keep you as sort of 303 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: physically far away from them as I possibly can at 304 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 1: all times. Oh my god, there's such babies. They are 305 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 1: such babies. Ever since I keyed that one girl's car, 306 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: it's all been. You know, I didn't know she was 307 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,160 Speaker 1: a student. I thought she was a student teacher. Well again, 308 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: if I had known that girl was only sixteen, I 309 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: would not have keyed that word into her car. Well, 310 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 1: it's interesting because this keeps happening where you attack or 311 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: otherwise harass a student and then you say, oh, I 312 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: thought she was never been kissed. I thought she was 313 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: an undercover was I've been. She's all that added. You know, 314 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,360 Speaker 1: I believed it the first time she looked older. I 315 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 1: understand that you've been. She's all that added. I understand that. 316 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: But fine, you know I can't be we can't be 317 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: doing this. The same thing happened when the head of 318 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: the English Department had to leave his position for legal reasons. 319 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: I believe that's what I heard, But I'm sure you 320 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: have a good reason he moved. Well, but why did 321 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: he move? These are the questions that Yeah, because legally 322 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 1: he had to move. It was my understanding that his 323 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: wife got a different position. She works in tech, So allegedly, 324 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that we had the creator of Apple. 325 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 1: Cindy google that for me. Who's the who creators? I'm 326 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: already honest, Steve Jobs is the creator of Apple. Oh well, 327 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: sorry for trying to keep things old school. Uh listen, 328 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: why was I not allowed to keep that cat that 329 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: I found in the alley in my classroom? But precious 330 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: little Mims mcgilla cutty had that beta fish for years, 331 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: for years, and you said no, no, tabbys, not in 332 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: my school. Well, number one, the cat was visibly sick, 333 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: even more reason to take it in. Yeah, that's absolutely 334 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: something we can't have a to school. We have students 335 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 1: who are allergic to cats and dander. That that makes sense. 336 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 1: Take a pill. You could have had a beta fish. 337 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: What do I want with a fish? In fact, I 338 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 1: gave you a beta fish. Yeah, And I took the fish, 339 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: and I took Mrs mcgilla cutty's fish and I raced 340 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: them and it did turn into a bit of a 341 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: blood bath, and that I will admit I didn't realize 342 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,439 Speaker 1: was going to happen, and the students were upset by that, 343 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 1: and it was a whole thing, and once again my emails. 344 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,639 Speaker 1: You never think about my inbox before you do these things, Stephen. 345 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: You never think about what it's like, what my home 346 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: answering machine is like after one of these little stunts. Listen, 347 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: they're not stunts. I just care, maybe you should try it. 348 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: I cared deeply about the students and about the school, 349 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: and frankly about you, which is why it's so hurtful 350 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: to find out that you've been slandering me, that you've 351 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: been saying these things about Bonnie. Well, Bonnie. I tried 352 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: to be friends with Bonnie. She didn't give me the 353 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: time of day. We go to the same gym. Bonnie 354 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: loves you. No one wants to be sung at at 355 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 1: the gym I was. I told her Bad Romance was 356 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: a great workout song, and I thought that chanting it 357 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 1: at her while she was on the elliptical would inspire 358 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 1: Bonnie forgetting she was a lesbian. And when I remember that, 359 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: I switched to come to my Window by Melissa eth Ritch, 360 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: and she I thought had a great workout. She was 361 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: scared by that, and she actually came home and she 362 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: was worried for you. And that was her first question, 363 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: because Bonnie is the sweetest. Everyone who knows Bonnie knows 364 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: that she only cares for others. And so she came 365 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: home and she said, I think something is wrong with Stephen. Well, 366 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: and I said, no, he's that's very he's fine. Well, 367 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: final question, I want you to explain to my lists 368 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 1: why you're trying to take me away from them. I 369 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 1: was gonna say, I'm not trying to take you away 370 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 1: from them, but I am. What I'll say to your 371 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 1: listeners is it's completely inappropriate as a teacher at our 372 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: school for Stephen to have been running this podcast. Some 373 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: of the things that he has said and done have 374 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: opened us up to legal liability, not to mention some 375 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: of the moral questions that this entire operation has put forward. 376 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 1: Have have your legal people, because I I have nothing yet, 377 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 1: didn't you didn't get anything in the I didn't see 378 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: any problems, no discrepancies over here, any legal issues, Okay, nothing, 379 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: nothing that I can think of legal jargon. Well, Stephen 380 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 1: has contracts that he has signed with the school district, 381 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: well that he is almost certainly in violation of at 382 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: this time, Steven, and once again not to mention the 383 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: ethics of doing this at all. Ethics. Well, ethics is 384 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: that's in the eye of the beholder. What is ethics. 385 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: It's subjective, thank you, it's pathos. Honestly, Stephen, maybe you 386 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: should be the lawyer. I think so too. No one 387 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: here is a lawyer allegedly allegedly allegedly. Okay, you know what, 388 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: I was really hoping that when I came here that 389 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,159 Speaker 1: this would be a fruitful conversation. Well, I think we 390 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 1: all knew that that wasn't what was gonna be. Well 391 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: more fool Stephen. I think this actually turned out better 392 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:09,200 Speaker 1: than I had anticipated. Well, I didn't ask the hot questions. 393 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to go it's like going to are you 394 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: and Bonnie in an open relationship? Yes? Oh my god? 395 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: Oh wow, wow? No, and you want to talk to 396 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 1: me about ethics? Get her out of here? Um, okay, no, 397 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: well there's no there's no need a bad, horrible I'm 398 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: so thank you, Sindi. She's a strong lie.

I'm not at the school because 401 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 1: I'm suspended. But regardless, I'm so glad that we did 402 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: call the guy that you knew sent a thank God 403 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: for Hank, because I had a feeling we would have 404 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: to use him. We did. So what do you. I 405 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,919 Speaker 1: hope you don't have to do too much for Hank? 406 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: Oh no, I don't.
