1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,120
Speaker 1: Mister Bruce will start there. It's one more thing, I'm

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: strong and getty. One more. I'm going to parent teacher

3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: conferences for my son over the next couple of days.

4
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 1: And he's got one particular teacher that he does not

5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:18,119
Speaker 1: particularly like.

6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 2: Every kid has that, I think in that situation.

7
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 1: Yeah. Sure, And some of the examples he's given sound

8
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: semi unpalatable. I mean, you know, I the beholder. Sure,

9
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but two sides every story. Of course. I

10
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: was thinking about some of the teachers that I did

11
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,959
Speaker 1: not like as opposed to teachers I liked. I had

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: many teachers that I liked a lot, were freaking awesome,

13
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: and I wish I wish I had a way to

14
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 1: get a hold of them or they were live so

15
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 1: I could tell them how much I thought they were awesome. Yeah,

16
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 1: amen to that, But there were there were some So

17
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,239
Speaker 1: I was wondering if Katie Jo Michael can think of

18
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: any examples. I've got a couple that, speaking of mister Bruce,

19
00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: either didn't like or were weird. Mister Bruce.

20
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 2: Would sounds like a gay fashion icon or something consultant.

21
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: I've wondered that over the years he was he he

22
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: was pretty swishy, and I don't know if that had

23
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,319
Speaker 1: anything to do with anything or n was his last

24
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: name Bruce or his first name Bruce. I think his

25
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,839
Speaker 1: last name was Bruce. Okay, all, and mister Bruce is appropriate.

26
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: I don't even remember anyway. I'm in like fifth grade, gladys.

27
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: Maybe one harp since these are all going to be

28
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: from its tiresome. After a while, it was, gosh, she

29
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 1: got carpal tunnel, and then we'll be on the hook.

30
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: She's on our insurance plan. Mister Bruce. After lunch every

31
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: day he would walk in. He had a locker there,

32
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 1: and we all knew it. I mean we became accustomed

33
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 1: to so we'd wait for it. It was part of the act.

34
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: He'd come back after recess, and so we got lunch

35
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 1: in recess. He'd come in. He'd walk over his turtle

36
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: next wetter and he would open up the locker and

37
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: he would get out a big thing of listine, like

38
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: the old gross yellow kind that wasn't like minty. You

39
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: probably don't even know this, Katie, but it didn't used

40
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,919
Speaker 1: to be minty or whatever. He just didn't even try

41
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: to make it palatin him. No, it's just like taste

42
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: it like caustic chemicals or alcohol, which is what it was. Yeah,

43
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: And he would he would he would take his listerine

44
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: and he would pour himself a big thing of listerine

45
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: and he'd put in his mouth and he'd tilts his

46
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: head back in front of the classroom and go do

47
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: the whole gargle right in front of us, and then

48
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: he would turn and look at us and then he

49
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: would go swallow it down, and we'd all go ew.

50
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: Every day, swallow it yeah, which I now realize was

51
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: him basically taking a shot of whiskey to deal with

52
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: teaching fifth grader's social study. You know who can blame him, wow,

53
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: But every day and it just became a thing, you know,

54
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: ew every single day with that smile on his face

55
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: as he swallowed down his listerine, having just gargled up

56
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: whatever was in his mouth.

57
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 2: The one the one thing I've realized is I have

58
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 2: compared notes through my life, is that if you never

59
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 2: had a band director that through things at the kids,

60
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 2: you're a rarity. I mean, I thought that was so

61
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 2: crazy that our band director would get mad and chuck

62
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: his keys and usually it'd be over somebody's head or

63
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: something like that a warning shot. But in comparing notes

64
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 2: with other musicians, especially through my life, they're like, wow,

65
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: my guy did that.

66
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: Too, Yeah, didn't band director through things? Racers, batons?

67
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. The The unspoken message was I was the most

68
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 2: gifted musician in my town. My dreams went to hell,

69
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: and now I'm here failing to teach music to kids

70
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 2: who don't care.

71
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: Who don't even care about the thing I'm so passionate about. Yeah,

72
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: that would make you mad.

73
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, to some extent.

74
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: You know.

75
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: It's funny now having said that, now I get why

76
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 2: all my band directors were so nice to me, because.

77
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, that don't make a difference. Yeah, that don't

78
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: make a difference. I get two examples. This is not

79
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: bad teachers. This is me being dumb, I guess. But

80
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: twice this happened to me in my career. And it's

81
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: funny the things that stick in your mind. Obviously it

82
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: made an imprint on me. My doctor was telling me

83
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: the other day about what they've learned about things that

84
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: are sticky in your brain. Oh, I'd love to hear me, man.

85
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: And it's super interesting, and a lot of it is

86
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 1: I have memories that are inexplicable. Why would I remember that. Yeah,

87
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: it's not always easy to know, but a lot of

88
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,799
Speaker 1: it is just evolution. It's like to remember this fear

89
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 1: moment so you don't have it to have it again.

90
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 1: You know this almost killed you or almost killed you

91
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: or whatever. But a couple of them because I was

92
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 1: just so frightened. One time, we're in line, so this

93
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: would have been fifth grade, because I can picture the teacher.

94
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: I can picture that she was wearing a blue dress.

95
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: I can picture it like it was yesterday. But the

96
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,359
Speaker 1: fifth grader, somebody said something in line as we're staying

97
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 1: in line to go out somewhere, and what was that?

98
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: She said? And some kids were you mocking me? Who's

99
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: wocking me? Somebody who's wocking me? Who's I will not

100
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: put up with this. Somebody was mocking me? And none

101
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: of us had the slightest idea what mock meant? I know,

102
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: I didn't. Yeah, And we were like, what the hell?

103
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: Who did what? And why is she so mad? We've

104
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: never seen her this mad ever? Right, And I can't

105
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: answer the question because I don't know what that. You

106
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: don't know what it is? Who's mocking me? And she

107
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: went one by one, were you mocking me. I did all.

108
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 1: I may have been or I may not have been.

109
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 1: Know it depends on the meaning of mocking. But anyway,

110
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: so that sticks in my mind because I was so frightened.

111
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: Maybe I was mocking her and I don't know. Uh,

112
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: there's that one. And then a similar thing with the

113
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 1: band teacher. I would have been in eighth grade, and

114
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 1: I should have known the meaning of this world. Just word.

115
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: It just shows you how dumb I am. But uh,

116
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: I was. I was not paying attention. We were supposed

117
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: to be doing something in band. None of us were.

118
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: And uh, and we're laughing about something. You said, cot

119
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 1: the levity cock the levity right now? Wow, cut it?

120
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: And I thought, I don't know what levity is. I

121
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: don't know what I'm but I will. I will cut

122
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: it out. You see it, You see me murderously angry.

123
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 1: So I will. God, there's any levity in this room,

124
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: I'll put it in a bucket and carry it out.

125
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: But I had no idea what he meant. And I

126
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: can still picture the look on his face. He was furious.

127
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, red faced. Yeah, I don't know what

128
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: levity is.

129
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 2: I appreciate the class with which he was upbraiding you

130
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 2: all and just stained a little high.

131
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: Oh jeez, Katie, you have.

132
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 3: Anything, Uh, I I don't. I don't think I had

133
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,559
Speaker 3: like a bad teacher. I had a couple of real

134
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,239
Speaker 3: odd balls though. My I remember my home ex teacher

135
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 3: my freshman year walked around barefoot and she she was

136
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 3: a large marge, if you know what I mean, and

137
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 3: all of us she would walk by and we were

138
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 3: just going.

139
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: Her feet were hot. She need to let him breathe. Yeah,

140
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:52,159
Speaker 1: that one.

141
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 3: And then I remember we had a sub for history,

142
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 3: I believe, who sounded like Toweley from South Park. She

143
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 3: talked like this, and we were just giving her all

144
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 3: sorts of hell.

145
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: And I was wearing I.

146
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,040
Speaker 3: Was wearing a shirt that said little miss Muffett sat

147
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 3: on her toffet until Chuck Norris Roundhouse kicked her into

148
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 3: a glacier.

149
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: Wow, you still remember your teacher wordy t shirt? Yeah.

150
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,559
Speaker 3: And she looked at me and she I just remember going,

151
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 3: what does your shirt say? And I stood up and

152
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 3: I pointed at the back of it like a real jackass,

153
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 3: and she just went get out.

154
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: She took me out of the classics. That's what my shirt.

155
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:36,119
Speaker 4: Said, get out, Get out. Wow, Sory, that's an hot

156
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 4: T shirt.

157
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: She was. I have no idea what her name was

158
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: because we all called her towly. Wow.

159
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 2: Was your dad aware of that T shirt? Did you

160
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 2: ever get a you're not leaving the house in that,

161
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 2: young lady?

162
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 1: I know, I think he knew I had it. But

163
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: that's not a scene or anything. No, not at all. No,

164
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: it's it's quirky as hell. I love it. Yeah, but

165
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: it was one of those two parts.

166
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 3: So, like said, the front of it was little miss

167
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 3: Muffet sat on her toffet, and then I had to

168
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 3: turn around and show.

169
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: The back and get out of this class. Wait, why

170
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: all right, fine, I'll leave Tally. Yeah, I was, oh.

171
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 2: Jeez, wow, juvenile delinquent. Uh yeah wow. On the other hand,

172
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 2: there were some great teachers.

173
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 5: Yep. Can I tell you about mister Yoakum, my science teacher? Sure,

174
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, he was the best. Is I wonder

175
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 5: he didn't burn down the school or or hurt his student.

176
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 5: But one time we're out in the playground area and

177
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 5: also we hear this explosion, like this loud noise. We

178
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 5: go in to the classroom and there he is, and

179
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 5: there's smoke coming out from under his arms. He looks

180
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 5: at us, he goes, damn it, I screwed up again.

181
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,959
Speaker 5: He did this stuff all the time. He'd like to

182
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 5: take like a model rocket, light it and shoot it

183
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 5: into the ceiling. The ceiling had holes from all the

184
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 5: different years that he shot rockets.

185
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: Wow, I like, damn, I screwed up again, son of

186
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: I thought that would work well and for next time.

187
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 5: For the laws of physics. He would take a bowling ball,

188
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 5: suspend it from the classroom. I still remember this, and

189
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 5: he would pull it back and you have a students,

190
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 5: Oh my god, say stick your face out.

191
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: And write the idea that it can't go further than

192
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,839
Speaker 1: right gravity will Yeah, I'm aware of that.

193
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 5: It would get within like a half an inch.

194
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 1: I mean I saw one of these days. It's my

195
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: teacher did that with the tennis ball. But and you

196
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: know there's no chance really of But still, you don't

197
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: need a bowling ball coming in with a hair's breadth

198
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 1: of smashing your face open.

199
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, what if you like lose your balance a little

200
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 2: and lean forward an inch and a half.

201
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: If you get your skull caved in, try to hold still.

202
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 3: Michael, we had a teacher like that, as well, who

203
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 3: I believe listens to the show, mister Lawrence, who I

204
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 3: will always remember he used to strap Barbie dolls to

205
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 3: rockets and launch him in the oh the.

206
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: Court like that, I do know, and Joe and I

207
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,839
Speaker 1: have talked about this before. For me, the teachers that

208
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: were the most feared and hated were always my favorite

209
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: because one, they they had discipline, so the class was

210
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: orderly and I could pay attention, and and they were

211
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: usually they were very enthusiastic about what they were teaching,

212
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 1: and they were good at teaching it. But man, the

213
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: teachers that were legendarily scary were almost always my favorite.

214
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 2: Yeah regular yeah, and the legend that you'd hear for

215
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 2: oh yeah, the two years approaching eighth grade before you

216
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 2: finally had mister mean pans right.

217
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 1: Oh, he didn't put up with crap, which is fine

218
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 1: with me. Good. One of my favorite teachers, like I had,

219
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:40,440
Speaker 1: was a I was a very introverted, not particularly enjoying

220
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 1: my life kid for all of high school. But my

221
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: ninth grade English teacher totally got me and understood me

222
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: and everything like that in a way no other teacher

223
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: ever had. And it was just I mean, it was

224
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 1: life changing. That's great. It was fantastic.

225
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

226
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: I remember one time I was doodling something I don't remember.

227
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,319
Speaker 1: I was dudeling. I was writing something funny on a

228
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: piece of paper and he saw it over my shoulder

229
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: and he started laughing and he held it up and

230
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: he said, this is Jack. What you see every day

231
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: is not Jack. This is Jack. Wow, he said to

232
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: the class. He knew me, good will, hunting, dead poets,

233
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: society stuff. I think he got fired for uh oh

234
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: oh boy oh dark turn dark turn alert, dark turnal

235
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: art allegedly flirting with a student. I don't know if

236
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 1: he did or not, but yeah, I'm be unfortunate. Are

237
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 1: those things don't go together? No, him recognizing my mind, no,

238
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: not at all. Comedic abilities and uh being attracted to

239
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:44,959
Speaker 1: high school girls don't go together? Is well no, no,

240
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: yes and no no end.

241
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 2: Yes, he was relating to students as fully human beings,

242
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 2: as opposed to just someone coming through the class. There

243
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 2: was an infamy alleged affair between a teacher and a

244
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 2: student at my high school.

245
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:10,199
Speaker 1: Really what are the ages here? Way too old and

246
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: a senior, so it wasn't like a twenty year old teacher. No, no,

247
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 1: which is still, you know, strictly against the rules, and

248
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: you've got to be more disciplined than law.

249
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, but yeah, it was eighteen and sixty five.

250
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 2: No, I'd have to guess at how old this guy was.

251
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 2: He was certainly forty.

252
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: Ooh and forty year old dude.

253
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 2: The word was they were seriously close friends. They had

254
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 2: a deep emotional attachment.

255
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,560
Speaker 1: Huh, which happens? And I don't I.

256
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 2: Don't actually know about any hanky and or panky, And

257
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 2: I wouldn't speculate after all these years because my memories

258
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 2: are fuzzy. But my the birth of my cynicism, well

259
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 2: maybe not the birth. One of the major chapters in

260
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 2: my cynicism about human beings was in fifth grade science class,

261
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 2: where the science teacher was is a halfway. He was

262
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 2: a mediocrity. I think he couldn't have done anything else

263
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 2: in life, which is not to denigrate teachers. I know

264
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 2: in love quite a few. But he was doing this

265
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 2: thing about the difference between hearing and listening, feeling and touching,

266
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:35,559
Speaker 2: seeing and looking. But he got the last one backward.

267
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 2: He got it wrong, and he wouldn't admit it. And

268
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 2: I argued with him, and he said, no, you're wrong,

269
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 2: You're wrong, and I'm like, wow, okay, so sometimes people

270
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 2: in authority are a wrong and.

271
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 1: B a holes about it. Wow huh that was he

272
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: taught me an important lesson? Is it turned interesting?

273
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 2: Yeah?

274
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 5: Didn't one of you have a teacher that made you

275
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 5: swim in the nude? No, sir, I thought you.

276
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: I had a story about that.

277
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 2: That was Josh my dad in like the nineteen Force.

278
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 2: It's still weird though I was universal at the time.

279
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 2: I know Catholic school though, yes, so so yeah, yeah,

280
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 2: I'm at the point being Catholic schools are famously unable

281
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 2: to afford swim trucks. And there was a lineup all

282
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 2: the way down the hall for who would get to

283
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 2: be gym teacher that day among certain of the clergy.

284
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: She will line up all the boys naked so you

285
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 1: can give him the once over and choose one of

286
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: them to be. Oh boy, yeah, sorry, I got it.

287
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 2: I told you there was dark turn coming and just

288
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 2: took a little longer than I expected.

289
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: God. And the one thing I liked about mister Champlain

290
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: also my final story would be when we were doing

291
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: we had to give a speech about some literature, and

292
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 1: he went through this whole complicated thing about introductions to

293
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: a speech to grab people's attention or everything like that.

294
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: You know, set up, you're what you're going to talk about.

295
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: And I stood up to give my speech and I said,

296
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: speaking of Shakespeare from my introduction. And he thought that

297
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: was hilarious and gave me a wow, that's my whole introduction.

298
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: That's nice. Oh well, that's a that's swimming naked thing.

299
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: Oh boy. Oh one more thing about the schools. This

300
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: is interesting at uh one of the schools I'm aware of.

301
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to get anybody in trouble. I don't

302
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: even know why they did this. It's weird. It's got

303
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: to be something to do with the modern naked math class.

304
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:41,680
Speaker 1: The bathroom, the boys' bathroom at the high school.

305
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 5: The urine.

306
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: Each urinal is individual in a stall with a door

307
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: that closes.

308
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 2: Oh one, I wonder if they had that like people

309
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 2: being assaulted thing, because you're rather vulnerable.

310
00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 3: Is that a trans thing?

311
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 1: Well, what do you mean you're Oh, hell of that,

312
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. What when you mean you're vulnerable?

313
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: It's been the same way forever, but all of a sudden,

314
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 1: now you have to be yelling.

315
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 2: At me just because I haven't figured out why they

316
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 2: do it.

317
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: It just seems crazy to me to cut the levity. Next, first,

318
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: and the mocking. First of all, what does it cost

319
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: you belding to build a bathroom like that as opposed

320
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 1: to just all the urinals side? But I mean I

321
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: went to schools where there was a trough. We all

322
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 1: stepped up to the same trough. Now a school trough. Yeah,

323
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: that's prehistoric. But the individual cement stall, you close the

324
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: door behind you for one single ural, you think it's

325
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: a trans thing. I think it is too. That was

326
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 1: my first thought. I'll bet it is.

327
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 2: You know. I was in a business the other day

328
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 2: where that was it. I walked in the bathroom and

329
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 2: I'm like, where are the urinals? And I realized, oh,

330
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 2: those stalls booths.

331
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 1: Yea, their booths are like a telephone booth for for

332
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 1: for your nation, which telephone booths are for your nation too,

333
00:16:59,080 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: if you're.

334
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 2: As our elevators, if you're riding the bar.

335
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 3: Hey.

336
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, so I'm I'm guessing that's a trans thing.

337
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: So just to stay ahead of it and avoid problems, Okay,

338
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 1: we'll just have doors that close and all the urinal's

339
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: fine whatever, so they can't see.

340
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:17,159
Speaker 2: The girl's penises and the boys for j J. I

341
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,640
Speaker 2: get sorry, Katie, I interrupted you because of sexism.

342
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 3: Oh no, well yeah, of course that was the reason.

343
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,400
Speaker 3: But isn't the privacy nice kind of a little bit?

344
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 1: I like it?

345
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:26,400
Speaker 3: Yeah?

346
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 2: Yeah to the next guy in the urinal guy, I

347
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 2: am immune from his ugly advances.

348
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: I yeah, I suppose. I don't know. The fiscal conservative

349
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: in me just thought, what did it freaking cost to

350
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: remake the bathrooms like this? Yeah, for the one out

351
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: of a thousand kids who got a problem.

352
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, and now Jack's the guy in the next doll, going.

353
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 1: How much do you think? There's things exactly yelling over

354
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: the stall? Unbelievable. We're in our own stalls. So buddy,

355
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,159
Speaker 1: I climb up on the top of this dog to

356
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: peak over. This is crazy, isn't it beautiful?

357
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 5: Well, I guess that's it.
