0:00:45.880 --> 0:00:47.879
<v Speaker 2>Welcome to Like a Virgin, the show where we give

0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:52.159
<v Speaker 2>yesterday's pop culture today's takes. I'm Rose DomU and I'm

0:00:52.240 --> 0:00:53.400
<v Speaker 2>Fran Toronto.

0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:53.840
<v Speaker 1>And.

0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:59.200
<v Speaker 2>Today the evil will be defeated and Pride Month will

0:00:59.520 --> 0:00:59.880
<v Speaker 2>be over.

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>That's not technically true, Rose, I mean.

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:06.080
<v Speaker 2>Today is in the day that this episode comes out, Oh,

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:07.559
<v Speaker 2>the last the last day of June.

0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:09.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's still not true. Rose. Pride is all

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:12.559
<v Speaker 1>year round. The thing about pride be for yourself, babes.

0:01:12.640 --> 0:01:16.040
<v Speaker 1>Pride wasn't even Pride wasn't even in June for me.

0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:20.200
<v Speaker 1>This year, pride is a state of minds. And pride

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:24.120
<v Speaker 1>happens in the UK in July, it happens in it

0:01:24.680 --> 0:01:28.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, in Atlanta in October. Don't happens in New

0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:34.840
<v Speaker 1>Orleans in September. Pride happens everywhere all the time because

0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:38.480
<v Speaker 1>we are prideful all year round. And this year, in

0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:45.920
<v Speaker 1>partnership with JP Morgan. And on that note, a word

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:49.680
<v Speaker 1>from our sponsor, Zappo's Shoes is the Beast.

0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:53.080
<v Speaker 2>You shouldn't because because we probably do have an ad

0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:55.640
<v Speaker 2>that's like that we just don't that we just don't

0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:56.120
<v Speaker 2>know about.

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 1>Okay, wait, dream Dream Pride sponsorship. Okay, they're buying out that.

0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:03.760
<v Speaker 1>It's not just a spot, they're buying out like an advertorial. Okay,

0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:09.400
<v Speaker 1>who is the brand we want? The Church of Scientology.

0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:13.240
<v Speaker 1>You are only saying that because you want to suck

0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Tom Cruise. Well, yeah, duh. My dream partnership would probably

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:24.760
<v Speaker 1>be like, what's something that I legitimately need, like emodium?

0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:28.280
<v Speaker 1>Oh don't know, you know what I would love because

0:02:28.280 --> 0:02:32.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking about Gaga right now, if I might as

0:02:32.280 --> 0:02:35.959
<v Speaker 1>well go big Pharma. I want my Pride partnership for

0:02:36.080 --> 0:02:40.120
<v Speaker 1>this podcast to be Titlenal extra strength rapid release gels. Okay,

0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:45.440
<v Speaker 1>this is not every painkiller. This is not every woman. Okay,

0:02:46.000 --> 0:02:50.040
<v Speaker 1>not ibuprofen. She is an amazing pain reliever that does

0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:54.160
<v Speaker 1>not in your blood. It acts immediately, and it's very potent,

0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:58.960
<v Speaker 1>and it's like unlike other painkillers. This I'm literally doing

0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:04.000
<v Speaker 1>an advertiying. Okay, let's let's move it a lot. Let's

0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:07.480
<v Speaker 1>move it a pride. I was your pride friend. My

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:10.520
<v Speaker 1>pride was filled with the tite little extra strength rapid

0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:17.280
<v Speaker 1>release jels because I was hungover, stopped doing spot No seriously,

0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 1>I was so drunk and did a lot of drugs

0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:22.560
<v Speaker 1>and smoked a lot of weed. And that is pride

0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:25.679
<v Speaker 1>to me. As you know, I did pretty much the

0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.200
<v Speaker 1>opposite of you, which is go to club, another club,

0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:33.079
<v Speaker 1>another club, bus train, no sleep, no sleep. I have

0:03:33.200 --> 0:03:35.760
<v Speaker 1>been going to parties all month, not a ton of

0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:39.760
<v Speaker 1>sponsored parties, which I love, like not even like only

0:03:39.880 --> 0:03:42.200
<v Speaker 1>like one fashion party, like only really going to like

0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:46.119
<v Speaker 1>people's convene gatherings, drag events, things that are like self

0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:48.920
<v Speaker 1>produced or like community produced. I think is like where

0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:52.880
<v Speaker 1>we should be putting our energy and dollars. Yes, but

0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:59.080
<v Speaker 1>I also went to body Hack, an amazing trans party

0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:02.840
<v Speaker 1>that my friend reoed with her organizing collective, and then

0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Poppy Juice after that, and then the next day I

0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:08.120
<v Speaker 1>went to Dike March, and then I went to Gush,

0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:11.840
<v Speaker 1>which my friend Angie helps put on. And it's been

0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:13.960
<v Speaker 1>a queer ass weekend. And then yesterday I went to

0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:16.480
<v Speaker 1>your least favorite place on the planet and my favorite

0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 1>place on the planet Jacob eas Beach. I will never

0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 1>go there again. I love that beach. Anyways, what did

0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:29.200
<v Speaker 1>you do this weekend? Rose? So?

0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:34.320
<v Speaker 2>I well, Thursday, I kicked off Pride by doing a

0:04:34.440 --> 0:04:38.880
<v Speaker 2>corporate panel with friend of the podcast Charlene.

0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:42.440
<v Speaker 1>That actually went well. It was very chill.

0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:46.160
<v Speaker 2>And then Friday, my friend and I went out of

0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:50.880
<v Speaker 2>town for the weekend to Wyndham, New York, which is

0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:51.880
<v Speaker 2>in the Catskills.

0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Windham that sounds very Bridgerton. It's a very.

0:04:56.720 --> 0:05:00.240
<v Speaker 2>It was a very like picturesque little town. And then

0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:05.320
<v Speaker 2>we were in a cabin that was like faux remote,

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:09.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, like it was pretty close to everything, but

0:05:09.360 --> 0:05:14.040
<v Speaker 2>it looked like very scenic around it. The house was,

0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:16.279
<v Speaker 2>you know, it had kind of all of the typical

0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:20.040
<v Speaker 2>airbnb problems. The beds were not very comfortable. It was

0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:22.200
<v Speaker 2>super hot in it when we got in there, and

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:25.359
<v Speaker 2>I had to put the ac in myself.

0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:28.719
<v Speaker 1>Which was not great. We are going to be talking

0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:30.640
<v Speaker 1>about and just like that on the Patreon. I was

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:32.240
<v Speaker 1>just about to start talking about it now, and then

0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:34.200
<v Speaker 1>I caught myself and I said, wait a second, the

0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:35.880
<v Speaker 1>conversation is Paywald.

0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes, we have a lot to say though, I do

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:41.720
<v Speaker 2>have a lot to say about and just like that,

0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:43.760
<v Speaker 2>and we're not even we're not even going to give

0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:46.680
<v Speaker 2>you top level thoughts. If you want a glimpse of taste,

0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:50.680
<v Speaker 2>a taste of the end, just like that combo, you

0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:55.320
<v Speaker 2>can hear it. But if you want our full thoughts,

0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:58.480
<v Speaker 2>and I think this will probably be how we get

0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:00.800
<v Speaker 2>through the season of end just like that, because the

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:04.120
<v Speaker 2>episodes come out Thursday, so just like timing wise, it

0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:05.920
<v Speaker 2>doesn't really make sense for us to talk about the

0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:07.080
<v Speaker 2>previous week's episode.

0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:08.000
<v Speaker 1>So I believe that.

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:13.520
<v Speaker 2>And just like that, discussions will live on the Patreon,

0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:16.120
<v Speaker 2>So go to patreon dot com, slash like a virgin

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:18.560
<v Speaker 2>and become a patron if you want to hear our

0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:19.160
<v Speaker 2>thoughts about it.

0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:26.240
<v Speaker 1>Gorge h literally so much. Okay, no other TV this weekend, right,

0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:28.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean you were just reading on your little your

0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:31.800
<v Speaker 1>little pride escape and your little pride escape hat.

0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 2>No, we actually did watch a couple episodes of Glamorous

0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:40.480
<v Speaker 2>on Netflix and it seems fun.

0:06:40.800 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 1>It's fun. Is it about like a editor and she

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.400
<v Speaker 1>like a mean editor lady and like a lowly assistant.

0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:48.040
<v Speaker 1>That that is the problem with it.

0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:53.640
<v Speaker 2>No, the problem is that Kim Katrall is basically playing

0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:57.919
<v Speaker 2>Miranda Priestley in the Devorce praduc if she was nice?

0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:01.960
<v Speaker 1>What? And that's boring? Why is she nice?

0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:06.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I wish I knew she is nice.

0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:10.200
<v Speaker 2>She's a nice boss was a nice What is the conflict?

0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:16.360
<v Speaker 2>The conflict seems to be that the main character is

0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:20.720
<v Speaker 2>and he's not he in the show is not even

0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:24.280
<v Speaker 2>non binary. What they're actually I'm about four episodes in

0:07:24.560 --> 0:07:29.040
<v Speaker 2>there has been zero discussion of gender. No one's at

0:07:29.040 --> 0:07:33.520
<v Speaker 2>any point like asked his pronouns, and like they're basically

0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.760
<v Speaker 2>no person that's I guess that's fine, And like at

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:41.400
<v Speaker 2>one point they do make reference to being a femme

0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:46.600
<v Speaker 2>gay guy. But for a show that's like the headline

0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:50.160
<v Speaker 2>is about a boy who wears makeup, it is seems

0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:54.400
<v Speaker 2>to be remarkably uninterested in the you know, gender and

0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:55.880
<v Speaker 2>identity implications of that.

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:59.360
<v Speaker 1>Which is can I guess a choice? I I really

0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:01.480
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't say any because I have not watched a single

0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:03.520
<v Speaker 1>second of the show, not even the trailer, so I

0:08:03.560 --> 0:08:05.680
<v Speaker 1>don't even know what it's about totally. But from what

0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:09.120
<v Speaker 1>you're describing, I will say it is awesome to have

0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 1>any sort of circumstance where you know a transactor is

0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:14.920
<v Speaker 1>playing a cisgender role. I actually don't even know if

0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:18.560
<v Speaker 1>miss Benny identifies as trans, but like she's definitely giving

0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:23.080
<v Speaker 1>on binary and I think that's dope. I am shocked

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:26.200
<v Speaker 1>though that Netflix would not have would not lean into

0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:30.280
<v Speaker 1>that conversation, you know, in the kind of writing way.

0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:32.640
<v Speaker 1>But maybe that's a great thing. And I don't know

0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:34.600
<v Speaker 1>how that what this show feels like. But like if

0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:38.480
<v Speaker 1>someone's like visibly gender non conforming, I don't really need

0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:40.120
<v Speaker 1>to have a convert I don't need like there to

0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:42.640
<v Speaker 1>be a scene that's like a conversation about it. But

0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 1>in a real life it would come up naturally in

0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.040
<v Speaker 1>a little in between moments. There are ways to crack

0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:51.839
<v Speaker 1>jokes about it and reference it. Honestly, sort of this

0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:55.920
<v Speaker 1>does this really well, sort of an HBO the kind

0:08:55.960 --> 0:08:59.199
<v Speaker 1>of trans South Asian Daria that I was telling you about.

0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:02.920
<v Speaker 1>The jokes are very like off the cuff gender jokes

0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:05.920
<v Speaker 1>that like fit in between the actual plot and meat

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:09.599
<v Speaker 1>of the show. Anyways, Yeah, I mean I will watch it.

0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna it is a fun like head empty trash

0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:19.760
<v Speaker 1>TV watch, and that is what I will say about it. Oh, well,

0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:23.760
<v Speaker 1>is that I do? I do? I hear? Do I

0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:27.880
<v Speaker 1>hear an episode coming up? What is that? I what

0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:32.080
<v Speaker 1>are you holding? I'm holding a large shell to my ear. Yeah,

0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.640
<v Speaker 1>and I think I'm getting that. We are talking about

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:37.040
<v Speaker 1>summer camp today.

0:09:37.800 --> 0:09:41.679
<v Speaker 2>Yes, we are talking about camp, not the not the

0:09:41.800 --> 0:10:10.520
<v Speaker 2>met Gala theme, but place, the actual place that you go. Yes, Ryan,

0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:13.920
<v Speaker 2>did you spend a lot of time.

0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:18.280
<v Speaker 1>At camp? Is that what you did in the summers

0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:21.280
<v Speaker 1>when you were coming out Jesus Camp seven summers in

0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:24.319
<v Speaker 1>a row. Baby, Oh my god, I didn't even think

0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:27.040
<v Speaker 1>about that, the fact that you would have gone. I

0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:30.440
<v Speaker 1>went to Jesus when we talked about the Jesus version

0:10:30.520 --> 0:10:33.760
<v Speaker 1>of it. Yes, yes, yes, I loved. Okay, So what's

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:37.880
<v Speaker 1>your earliest memory of Jesus Camp. Well, okay, we had

0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 1>before Jesus Camp, like sleep away camp, like proper sleep

0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:44.160
<v Speaker 1>away camp. We did have like a vacation Bible School,

0:10:44.640 --> 0:10:46.800
<v Speaker 1>which is kind of like a day camp for todd

0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:49.599
<v Speaker 1>for like, you know, babies, to like go and do

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:53.920
<v Speaker 1>activities and play play with like the other church kids

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:57.760
<v Speaker 1>and stuff like that. That I guess I kind of

0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:00.640
<v Speaker 1>enjoyed because it was something to do during the day,

0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:05.280
<v Speaker 1>and I liked my church friends, I think, but Jesus Camp,

0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:07.800
<v Speaker 1>like where you go and you sleep there for like

0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:10.880
<v Speaker 1>one or two or three weeks at a time, was

0:11:11.200 --> 0:11:15.400
<v Speaker 1>very cult like. And obviously that you don't say, I mean,

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:18.280
<v Speaker 1>obviously it's because of Jesus, but also like, since we're

0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:21.080
<v Speaker 1>talking about it broadly, like summer camp does like kind

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:24.600
<v Speaker 1>of function like a cult sometimes, Like you do kind

0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:28.520
<v Speaker 1>of enter this summer camp brain space that is different

0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:31.319
<v Speaker 1>from when you go back home, like it feels for

0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:33.480
<v Speaker 1>a different life for sure.

0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, you have your camp friends, you can sort of

0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:40.160
<v Speaker 2>reinvent yourself at camp. But then but then once you're

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:44.199
<v Speaker 2>locked into a camp, then you are that person for

0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:45.280
<v Speaker 2>the duration.

0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Of your camp. Well, okay, what was your first summer camp?

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Did you have to did you ever reinvent yourself?

0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:57.480
<v Speaker 2>So so, I you know, am part of a long

0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:05.560
<v Speaker 2>lineage of Jews who believe in packing their children off

0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:09.440
<v Speaker 2>to be taken care of by nineteen year olds from

0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:12.680
<v Speaker 2>Australia and New Zealand basically as soon as they're old

0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:17.199
<v Speaker 2>enough so that they can you know, like go on

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:21.120
<v Speaker 2>summer vacations to Europe or like do whatever. So you know,

0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:25.480
<v Speaker 2>my mom and her brothers were sent off to a

0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:29.280
<v Speaker 2>sleep Boy camp as soon as they were old enough,

0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:32.679
<v Speaker 2>and I the same was done for my brother and I.

0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:34.800
<v Speaker 2>You know, you got to get the kids out of

0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:38.439
<v Speaker 2>the house during the summer and pay someone to take.

0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:42.520
<v Speaker 1>And wait, sorry, how long were you away? So okay.

0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:46.439
<v Speaker 2>I didn't start going to sleep Boy camp until I

0:12:47.000 --> 0:12:52.560
<v Speaker 2>was eleven, maybe ten or eleven.

0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:52.880
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:56.959
<v Speaker 2>Up until then, I would go to day camp I

0:12:57.800 --> 0:13:03.760
<v Speaker 2>went to. It was always sort of temple adjacent to

0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:07.720
<v Speaker 2>like a camp that was run out of the synagogue

0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:11.000
<v Speaker 2>that we went to, and then I went to a

0:13:11.160 --> 0:13:13.880
<v Speaker 2>theater camp that was also still a day camp. Then

0:13:13.960 --> 0:13:15.760
<v Speaker 2>there was one summer where we went to a camp

0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:18.959
<v Speaker 2>where you slept there during the week but you went

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:20.840
<v Speaker 2>home on the weekends. And it was in the city

0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 2>that I lived in, So that was sort of like

0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:27.280
<v Speaker 2>training wheels for Sleepway Camp. And then I went to

0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:29.959
<v Speaker 2>Sleepway Camp for the first time. I believe the summer

0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:33.000
<v Speaker 2>I was ten or eleven and my younger brother was

0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:35.880
<v Speaker 2>two years younger than me. We both went and that

0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 2>was like also kind of training wheels for Sleepway Camp

0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:42.960
<v Speaker 2>because I think it was only a week or two long.

0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:46.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't remember much about that camp experience, except that

0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:48.400
<v Speaker 2>on the way back, I was flying back, because you know,

0:13:48.480 --> 0:13:51.319
<v Speaker 2>these camps are always somewhere in the Northeast. I think

0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:55.000
<v Speaker 2>this one was in Main And on the flight back,

0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:58.040
<v Speaker 2>for some reason, I got bumped up to first class,

0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:00.960
<v Speaker 2>so I was like ten or you're my oh god,

0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:03.079
<v Speaker 2>flying flying alone.

0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:05.959
<v Speaker 1>In first oil rotten in real time, getting spoiled rotten.

0:14:06.120 --> 0:14:12.040
<v Speaker 1>But I got sick from the food or something.

0:14:12.720 --> 0:14:16.000
<v Speaker 2>And this is a very this is a very vivid,

0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:20.200
<v Speaker 2>like core foundational building blocking memory for me.

0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:25.480
<v Speaker 1>So I got sick from the plane. I do remember

0:14:25.600 --> 0:14:26.520
<v Speaker 1>this like this.

0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:29.400
<v Speaker 2>The flight attendants were all very into me because it

0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:31.960
<v Speaker 2>was like such a novelty, this like kid alone in

0:14:32.040 --> 0:14:35.320
<v Speaker 2>first class. I'm sure I was like super faggy. And

0:14:35.400 --> 0:14:37.800
<v Speaker 2>then when I got home, it was the summer that

0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:43.320
<v Speaker 2>Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets came out, and

0:14:43.880 --> 0:14:46.800
<v Speaker 2>I had begged my parents to get it for me,

0:14:47.640 --> 0:14:50.080
<v Speaker 2>And when I got home, the book was waiting for

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.200
<v Speaker 2>me on my bed, and all I wanted to do

0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:55.200
<v Speaker 2>was stay up all night and read it. But I

0:14:55.360 --> 0:14:59.080
<v Speaker 2>was deliriously ill from whatever had consumed on the plane,

0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:04.240
<v Speaker 2>so I slept for a full twenty four hours when

0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:07.840
<v Speaker 2>I got home and I came downstairs, you know, to

0:15:08.000 --> 0:15:10.840
<v Speaker 2>like for breakfast or whatever. When I finally was sick,

0:15:11.520 --> 0:15:14.960
<v Speaker 2>and my family was like, I can't believe what you

0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:17.040
<v Speaker 2>did last night. And I was like, what are you

0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:21.480
<v Speaker 2>talking about? They were like, you came downstairs. And so

0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:23.840
<v Speaker 2>this was the nineties, and you know, nineties were a

0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:27.360
<v Speaker 2>very water cooler culture, and we had a water cooler

0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:28.120
<v Speaker 2>in the kitchen.

0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:30.320
<v Speaker 1>You know that you with like this big water cooler

0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:33.240
<v Speaker 1>water for a water cooler culture in your own home

0:15:33.560 --> 0:15:38.200
<v Speaker 1>kitchen got over, yes, And they said that during the night,

0:15:38.240 --> 0:15:40.960
<v Speaker 1>while they were all sitting around having dinner, I had

0:15:41.240 --> 0:15:47.080
<v Speaker 1>come downstairs, walked up to the water cooler, pissed in

0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:50.960
<v Speaker 1>it as if it were a urinal, without saying a word,

0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:53.760
<v Speaker 1>and then gone back upstairs and gone back to sleep.

0:15:54.320 --> 0:15:58.200
<v Speaker 1>You were wait, were you sleepwalking? I was sleepwalking? I don't.

0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:00.960
<v Speaker 1>I haven't known memory of this. Well, how could you

0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:05.880
<v Speaker 1>so accurately piss into a water cooler in your sleep?

0:16:06.040 --> 0:16:11.400
<v Speaker 1>That's not possible. You were possessed. I was possessed by

0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:15.480
<v Speaker 1>I was much like much like Ginny Weasley and Harry

0:16:15.520 --> 0:16:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Potter and the Chamber of secrets. God, God, that's so weird. Rose,

0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:24.080
<v Speaker 1>you should be more so by that story. I know

0:16:24.960 --> 0:16:30.640
<v Speaker 1>it was. It's very that has it's it is giving hereditary,

0:16:30.680 --> 0:16:34.480
<v Speaker 1>and it's something that has haunted me throughout my entire life,

0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:38.400
<v Speaker 1>and like growing up, my my mom and my stepdad

0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:41.320
<v Speaker 1>and my brother would always joke about it, and I'd

0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:45.120
<v Speaker 1>get really pissed off, like because it was embarrassing because

0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:49.640
<v Speaker 1>I didn't remember it and it I was humiliated. So

0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:53.560
<v Speaker 1>that to me is like the beginning of my summer

0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:56.600
<v Speaker 1>camp journey and in many ways makes a lot of

0:16:56.680 --> 0:17:01.080
<v Speaker 1>sense considering some of the experiences I've had at variously. Question, So,

0:17:01.680 --> 0:17:05.280
<v Speaker 1>since you're sharing embarrassing stories, I will concede the fact

0:17:05.400 --> 0:17:11.000
<v Speaker 1>that I was a bed wetter probably until I was

0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:15.280
<v Speaker 1>almost like tennish. But I don't know. I don't think

0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:19.600
<v Speaker 1>I've ever pissed my pants at camp, like to my recollection,

0:17:19.720 --> 0:17:22.600
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I would viscerally remember that. But I

0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:25.280
<v Speaker 1>definitely had that fear every time I was in a

0:17:25.400 --> 0:17:28.480
<v Speaker 1>sort of slumber party situation. But honestly, my parents didn't

0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:31.920
<v Speaker 1>really let me do sleepovers because you know, parents like those.

0:17:32.600 --> 0:17:34.480
<v Speaker 1>I think there's a hard and fast rule with like

0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:38.639
<v Speaker 1>more conservative parents are more like issy parents that just

0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:41.720
<v Speaker 1>like they just don't do sleepovers, which is like bonkers

0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:45.720
<v Speaker 1>to me. But I will tell you that my version

0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:49.920
<v Speaker 1>of that story is I got pink I at Jesus Camp.

0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:53.160
<v Speaker 1>I think my first or second year and pinky Okay,

0:17:53.240 --> 0:17:56.720
<v Speaker 1>when you're at summer camp, first things, First, you got crushes. Okay,

0:17:57.320 --> 0:18:00.200
<v Speaker 1>you're telling everyone you got crushes on the girls. I

0:18:00.359 --> 0:18:03.679
<v Speaker 1>personally secretly have crushes on the boys. You are surrounded

0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:08.479
<v Speaker 1>by puberty. You're surrounded by people that are more puba yes, yes, pubes,

0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:10.920
<v Speaker 1>people that are more pubescent than you like, and you

0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:13.800
<v Speaker 1>feel insecure about like who's grown and who's not. You

0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:16.200
<v Speaker 1>feel insecure about who's cool and who's not, Like what

0:18:16.359 --> 0:18:19.080
<v Speaker 1>movies they've seen that you've never heard of? Like I

0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:22.080
<v Speaker 1>had so much insecurity at camp because you're coalescing with

0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:24.639
<v Speaker 1>people that like aren't at your school, completely outside of

0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:29.240
<v Speaker 1>your you know wherewithal So when I got pink eye

0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:33.359
<v Speaker 1>and became this untouchable loser and everyone knew it, I

0:18:33.560 --> 0:18:36.600
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh my god, could I have a more

0:18:36.680 --> 0:18:40.280
<v Speaker 1>worse experience here at Jesus Camp. Everyone was like very

0:18:40.359 --> 0:18:42.440
<v Speaker 1>gracious about it, Like no one really made fun of

0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:45.800
<v Speaker 1>it because you know, everyone loved Jesus, but like, it

0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:48.920
<v Speaker 1>was still nasty and I do have like it. It

0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:52.560
<v Speaker 1>is singed in my memory as an unpleasant camp experience,

0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:57.840
<v Speaker 1>but I loved summer camp. Loved I also loved summer camp.

0:18:57.960 --> 0:18:59.800
<v Speaker 1>I went to a camp that was okay. So there's

0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:03.280
<v Speaker 1>a a very well known theater camp called French Woods.

0:19:03.760 --> 0:19:06.640
<v Speaker 1>That's what the movie Camp is based off of, which

0:19:06.720 --> 0:19:10.080
<v Speaker 1>is one of my favorite films Anna Kendrick, her best work,

0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:12.960
<v Speaker 1>She Is Fucked, I'm Ready, and the Goddamn Show Must Gone.

0:19:13.640 --> 0:19:15.359
<v Speaker 1>But we were sort of like a sister camp to

0:19:15.400 --> 0:19:20.240
<v Speaker 1>French Woods. So it was either sports or the arts,

0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:22.720
<v Speaker 1>which I guess are still kind of the only camp activity.

0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:25.119
<v Speaker 1>So it's not like we were special. But I was

0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:28.560
<v Speaker 1>the only quote unquote boy who was like into theater

0:19:29.280 --> 0:19:32.920
<v Speaker 1>only why not the only one, but I was the

0:19:33.040 --> 0:19:35.520
<v Speaker 1>most into theater, so I got the lee and rolls

0:19:35.600 --> 0:19:37.840
<v Speaker 1>in all that. I know that I knew that.

0:19:38.920 --> 0:19:40.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so that was a big part of my camp experience.

0:19:40.760 --> 0:19:44.480
<v Speaker 2>But also I have another embarrassing story that has something

0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:51.560
<v Speaker 2>to do with evacuating your body. So I was I

0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:55.159
<v Speaker 2>have always been very pe shy when I used to

0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:56.840
<v Speaker 2>use bathrooms that had urinals in them.

0:19:57.880 --> 0:20:01.040
<v Speaker 1>I never pissed on someone during sex because you're p right, No,

0:20:01.200 --> 0:20:03.320
<v Speaker 1>I like to be pressed on. I don't like. I

0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:04.520
<v Speaker 1>still get very p shy.

0:20:06.200 --> 0:20:08.840
<v Speaker 2>So you know, back when I used to use bathrooms

0:20:08.920 --> 0:20:11.080
<v Speaker 2>i had urinals, I like hated being at a urinal

0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:14.240
<v Speaker 2>because I'm very p shy. I also in my childhood

0:20:14.320 --> 0:20:16.320
<v Speaker 2>was very poop shy and I did not want to

0:20:16.359 --> 0:20:18.879
<v Speaker 2>poop in public. So when I got to see you

0:20:18.920 --> 0:20:20.800
<v Speaker 2>were one of those, I didn't seven day.

0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I knew I didn't shy. I didn't ship for a

0:20:26.040 --> 0:20:29.040
<v Speaker 1>full for a full week. When I went to camp

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:31.240
<v Speaker 1>and I had to be sent I had to be

0:20:31.760 --> 0:20:34.680
<v Speaker 1>sent to the click. I had to be sent to

0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:37.720
<v Speaker 1>the clinic because I had like the worst just stomach

0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:41.680
<v Speaker 1>ache ever. And the nurse took one look at me.

0:20:41.760 --> 0:20:43.760
<v Speaker 1>I was like, when was the last night? And I

0:20:43.880 --> 0:20:46.399
<v Speaker 1>was like, I was like at my grandma's house before

0:20:46.440 --> 0:20:49.399
<v Speaker 1>we got here, and she was like, she was like,

0:20:49.840 --> 0:20:51.120
<v Speaker 1>go in there and take a ship.

0:20:51.800 --> 0:20:54.240
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, can you like puun some music

0:20:54.400 --> 0:20:56.960
<v Speaker 2>or something or like walk go out in the ride,

0:20:57.080 --> 0:20:59.040
<v Speaker 2>and she did it did work.

0:20:59.080 --> 0:21:05.399
<v Speaker 1>I shot and I felt so much better and that

0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:08.320
<v Speaker 1>was the first step in me becoming comfortable with shitting

0:21:08.920 --> 0:21:12.920
<v Speaker 1>in public. In public such a funny and now I

0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:19.120
<v Speaker 1>sha all the time everywhere. I mean, I still don't

0:21:19.240 --> 0:21:24.000
<v Speaker 1>love to ship in like a crowded but you know

0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:26.800
<v Speaker 1>when you're in an audience, but I do it because

0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:29.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's what the people want when.

0:21:29.480 --> 0:21:34.159
<v Speaker 2>You're in a bunk with especially with teenage boys. Like

0:21:34.280 --> 0:21:37.040
<v Speaker 2>that's the thing at my my bunk at Sleepway Camp.

0:21:37.160 --> 0:21:39.880
<v Speaker 2>So it was like it wasn't so you know, you're

0:21:39.920 --> 0:21:42.600
<v Speaker 2>like grouped by bunk at camp, but our bunks were

0:21:42.680 --> 0:21:46.280
<v Speaker 2>like interconnected, so it was like four different bunk groupings.

0:21:46.359 --> 0:21:49.040
<v Speaker 2>Then we all shared one big bathroom in the middle,

0:21:49.440 --> 0:21:52.359
<v Speaker 2>so there there was always someone around listening to me

0:21:52.440 --> 0:21:55.560
<v Speaker 2>take a dumb and it made me very self conscious,

0:21:55.760 --> 0:21:58.639
<v Speaker 2>but you know it did help, is that especially that

0:21:58.760 --> 0:22:03.159
<v Speaker 2>first summer. The albums that went triple platinum and R

0:22:03.240 --> 0:22:09.400
<v Speaker 2>Bunk were Eminem's debut album That's Extremely Summer and Yes

0:22:10.000 --> 0:22:15.960
<v Speaker 2>and the south Park movie soundtrack, which I honestly I

0:22:16.119 --> 0:22:18.440
<v Speaker 2>love the south Park movie south Park, bigger, longer and

0:22:18.560 --> 0:22:21.840
<v Speaker 2>uncut scenes, and I was I was sitting on that

0:22:22.000 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 2>toilet singing blame Canada while I was trying to poop. No, okay,

0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:27.800
<v Speaker 2>the South Park, the South Park of it all is

0:22:27.840 --> 0:22:31.760
<v Speaker 2>emblematic of something that honestly, you know we're talking about

0:22:31.840 --> 0:22:34.600
<v Speaker 2>right here in summer camp culture, which is that boys

0:22:34.640 --> 0:22:36.119
<v Speaker 2>are disgusting.

0:22:36.840 --> 0:22:41.800
<v Speaker 1>South Park is disgusting just cater to like gross little boys.

0:22:42.119 --> 0:22:44.359
<v Speaker 1>And when you are at summer camp and you have

0:22:44.560 --> 0:22:47.719
<v Speaker 1>to get used to, you know, pissed ship, pee, pooh, far,

0:22:47.840 --> 0:22:53.160
<v Speaker 1>puke whatever, like, it's like they the kids they lean

0:22:53.240 --> 0:22:55.280
<v Speaker 1>into that, get the boys lean into that, and so

0:22:55.359 --> 0:22:57.040
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden it's like he and pooh and

0:22:57.080 --> 0:22:59.560
<v Speaker 1>fart and puke jokes, and it's like, no, like this

0:22:59.760 --> 0:23:03.480
<v Speaker 1>is everyone's farting on each other, like you're spinning on people,

0:23:03.920 --> 0:23:08.480
<v Speaker 1>like gendered memories like happening in those like toxically masculine

0:23:08.520 --> 0:23:11.000
<v Speaker 1>spaces where I'm just like, I was like, this isn't

0:23:11.280 --> 0:23:14.399
<v Speaker 1>me dog, Like I don't understand, I don't belong here.

0:23:14.440 --> 0:23:19.360
<v Speaker 1>Get me out, not dog. Yeah, camp food also will

0:23:19.440 --> 0:23:21.680
<v Speaker 1>will stop you up. We have to say it.

0:23:22.160 --> 0:23:25.960
<v Speaker 2>Yes, there was one summer where I only ate jello

0:23:27.000 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 2>from from the cafeteria, and I mean I was having

0:23:32.320 --> 0:23:33.359
<v Speaker 2>some very liquidy shits.

0:23:33.680 --> 0:23:34.040
<v Speaker 1>It was.

0:23:34.119 --> 0:23:37.639
<v Speaker 2>It also like blue, like I don't, I don't recall,

0:23:39.000 --> 0:23:40.639
<v Speaker 2>but that was also the summer that I had my

0:23:40.720 --> 0:23:46.359
<v Speaker 2>first girlfriend, whose name I believe was Christine Christine, And

0:23:46.480 --> 0:23:49.440
<v Speaker 2>it was also the summer that I that It was

0:23:49.480 --> 0:23:52.000
<v Speaker 2>also the summer that I sucked my first dude.

0:23:52.040 --> 0:23:55.199
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, two for one? Wait Christine? How long did

0:23:55.240 --> 0:23:57.880
<v Speaker 1>that relate and ate pussy for the first time? Oh

0:23:58.359 --> 0:23:59.359
<v Speaker 1>my god? Wait you did?

0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:03.240
<v Speaker 2>I had all my first sexual experiences your most bisexual summer?

0:24:04.160 --> 0:24:06.960
<v Speaker 2>How How long did Christine the summer I turned pretty

0:24:06.960 --> 0:24:09.119
<v Speaker 2>How long did wait? Is that that's a movie, right,

0:24:09.320 --> 0:24:12.480
<v Speaker 2>it's a TV show? And okay, what was how long

0:24:12.600 --> 0:24:15.920
<v Speaker 2>did your relationship with Christine last? I believe it was

0:24:16.000 --> 0:24:18.480
<v Speaker 2>fairly long by camp standards, so I'm gonna say like

0:24:19.320 --> 0:24:20.000
<v Speaker 2>six EPs.

0:24:20.680 --> 0:24:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Okay. I had a crush I think my second year

0:24:23.760 --> 0:24:26.399
<v Speaker 1>at summer camp on a girl named Ashley, who I

0:24:26.560 --> 0:24:30.040
<v Speaker 1>did really fall for and I tried. She lived in Michigan,

0:24:30.400 --> 0:24:35.320
<v Speaker 1>but I my parents, our parents, respected parents, facilitated us

0:24:35.560 --> 0:24:38.800
<v Speaker 1>meeting after camp, Like we met up in Michigan so

0:24:38.880 --> 0:24:43.119
<v Speaker 1>we could go on this like chaperone date for like

0:24:43.400 --> 0:24:47.480
<v Speaker 1>like me and my long distance like camp crush. Isn't

0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:49.360
<v Speaker 1>that wild? Like, I don't know if I would ever

0:24:49.520 --> 0:24:53.119
<v Speaker 1>do that. Seeing camp friends outside of camp isn't it

0:24:53.240 --> 0:24:56.240
<v Speaker 1>was so it's wrong. It's like it's like honestly, like

0:24:56.720 --> 0:24:59.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, like you're at in Order Forbid. It's like

0:24:59.520 --> 0:25:01.840
<v Speaker 1>you're at an orgy and they turn on the fluorescent lighting.

0:25:01.920 --> 0:25:05.439
<v Speaker 1>It's like, so not like you because you're.

0:25:05.320 --> 0:25:08.399
<v Speaker 2>A different person at camp than you are in real life,

0:25:08.560 --> 0:25:11.159
<v Speaker 2>and like the two are not supposed to miss. And

0:25:11.240 --> 0:25:14.360
<v Speaker 2>if there's any time I've seen camp people outside of camp,

0:25:14.400 --> 0:25:19.280
<v Speaker 2>and it's happened very rarely, it's felt so weird and wrong.

0:25:41.359 --> 0:25:45.160
<v Speaker 2>Something that's very powerful about camp is that you never

0:25:45.520 --> 0:25:47.760
<v Speaker 2>think about your parents, like or at least I didn't

0:25:47.840 --> 0:25:49.679
<v Speaker 2>like parents being gone.

0:25:52.200 --> 0:25:54.600
<v Speaker 1>I really just not me. I like, oh, okay, you

0:25:54.680 --> 0:25:55.400
<v Speaker 1>missed mom and dad.

0:25:55.680 --> 0:25:59.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so at my So the proper Sleepway camp that

0:25:59.400 --> 0:26:03.159
<v Speaker 2>I went to, you're not allowed to call home for

0:26:03.240 --> 0:26:07.639
<v Speaker 2>the first seven days because they know that if you do,

0:26:08.000 --> 0:26:10.679
<v Speaker 2>you'll be like I want to come home, So they

0:26:11.600 --> 0:26:14.640
<v Speaker 2>force you to. They forced it to do no contact

0:26:14.720 --> 0:26:20.040
<v Speaker 2>for the first seven days, and I was miserable. I

0:26:20.320 --> 0:26:23.719
<v Speaker 2>wanted to get the fuck out of there. Also because

0:26:23.800 --> 0:26:27.320
<v Speaker 2>so I went to camp in the Poconos in Pennsylvania,

0:26:27.680 --> 0:26:30.840
<v Speaker 2>and you know, I grew up in Florida. So before camp,

0:26:30.920 --> 0:26:33.280
<v Speaker 2>we would go up to Long Island and stay with

0:26:33.359 --> 0:26:35.240
<v Speaker 2>my grandma and grandpa for like a week or two,

0:26:35.680 --> 0:26:36.159
<v Speaker 2>and then we.

0:26:36.160 --> 0:26:37.919
<v Speaker 1>Would go to camp. So by the time I got

0:26:37.920 --> 0:26:39.680
<v Speaker 1>to camp, I had it had already been a long

0:26:39.760 --> 0:26:42.320
<v Speaker 1>time since I had seen my mom, and I missed her.

0:26:43.160 --> 0:26:46.160
<v Speaker 2>So much, and she was so happy I was gone,

0:26:46.400 --> 0:26:49.760
<v Speaker 2>so I was. It was I was very sad. But

0:26:50.200 --> 0:26:53.200
<v Speaker 2>and what also made me upset was that such a

0:26:53.320 --> 0:26:55.880
<v Speaker 2>huge part of camp, especially when we were going to camp,

0:26:55.960 --> 0:26:58.960
<v Speaker 2>you know in the late nineties early two thousands, was

0:26:59.080 --> 0:27:03.200
<v Speaker 2>receiving mail and getting letters and care packages from your parents.

0:27:03.840 --> 0:27:05.480
<v Speaker 2>And let me tell you one thing my mom was

0:27:05.560 --> 0:27:07.560
<v Speaker 2>not doing during the summer when her kids were a

0:27:07.640 --> 0:27:09.720
<v Speaker 2>camp was putting together care packages.

0:27:09.800 --> 0:27:12.960
<v Speaker 1>She did not give a ship. Oh, my parents would

0:27:12.960 --> 0:27:15.000
<v Speaker 1>do care packages, but that's because they missed me. And

0:27:15.119 --> 0:27:21.159
<v Speaker 1>I what would you get in them? Yeah, blube com.

0:27:22.480 --> 0:27:24.440
<v Speaker 1>You like, you're like write your mom. You're like, hey,

0:27:24.600 --> 0:27:28.720
<v Speaker 1>next time, can you send me the one from from Yeah?

0:27:29.080 --> 0:27:36.320
<v Speaker 1>You're like, next time, can you get the like artisanal poppers? I? Yeah, no, right,

0:27:36.640 --> 0:27:38.520
<v Speaker 1>I feel I don't know. I would get like peanut

0:27:38.520 --> 0:27:40.280
<v Speaker 1>em and m's I think I got. I would get

0:27:40.320 --> 0:27:43.560
<v Speaker 1>like a book. You I think it was like stocked

0:27:43.600 --> 0:27:48.719
<v Speaker 1>with stuff from the camp store. But oh the com

0:27:49.160 --> 0:27:52.760
<v Speaker 1>or the commissary or like whatever it's called, the gummy candies,

0:27:52.800 --> 0:27:55.720
<v Speaker 1>the chocolate bars. H commissary was it. And they also

0:27:55.720 --> 0:27:57.679
<v Speaker 1>would merch that you could buy you did. I think

0:27:57.720 --> 0:28:00.359
<v Speaker 1>they had like store credits that your parents. It's so merch.

0:28:00.480 --> 0:28:04.040
<v Speaker 1>It's just like I don't think it's like they're selling.

0:28:04.600 --> 0:28:08.240
<v Speaker 1>It's not like they're selling chromatica jobs. They were at

0:28:08.280 --> 0:28:12.200
<v Speaker 1>my Jesus camp. But unlike you, I never got homesick, okay,

0:28:12.720 --> 0:28:14.639
<v Speaker 1>hated going home and my parents picked me up. I

0:28:14.800 --> 0:28:17.440
<v Speaker 1>was devastated. I did not want to leave. The only

0:28:17.560 --> 0:28:20.240
<v Speaker 1>time I ever ever longed for home, which did not

0:28:20.320 --> 0:28:22.680
<v Speaker 1>long for my parents long for home, was when I

0:28:22.800 --> 0:28:28.720
<v Speaker 1>was at Boy quote unquote Scouts camp. Boy Scouts Camp was,

0:28:29.040 --> 0:28:31.200
<v Speaker 1>which was how old were you I was? I don't know,

0:28:31.560 --> 0:28:33.800
<v Speaker 1>like I was a tween maybe so I was probably

0:28:33.880 --> 0:28:37.760
<v Speaker 1>like eleven or twelve, like you know, waking up in

0:28:37.960 --> 0:28:41.280
<v Speaker 1>like a wet tent on the floor on a tarp

0:28:41.480 --> 0:28:45.200
<v Speaker 1>and like stinky boys eating gross chili mac and being

0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:49.040
<v Speaker 1>disgusting doing disgusting things like shitting at holes and drinking

0:28:49.200 --> 0:28:52.560
<v Speaker 1>ketchup from the bottle like like because they're daring each other.

0:28:52.760 --> 0:28:56.840
<v Speaker 2>Like way the things that boys do with food are

0:28:57.040 --> 0:29:04.200
<v Speaker 2>so disgusting. Teenage, teenage and especially like pubescent boys are

0:29:05.040 --> 0:29:06.520
<v Speaker 2>the literal worst people in the world.

0:29:06.640 --> 0:29:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah they are. Just having been one of them, I

0:29:09.480 --> 0:29:12.880
<v Speaker 1>can say that when I like surrounded by those disgusting

0:29:12.960 --> 0:29:15.600
<v Speaker 1>boys like I actually very vividly remember going to like

0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:17.800
<v Speaker 1>some sort of ski camp and like Austin and Bradley

0:29:17.840 --> 0:29:19.360
<v Speaker 1>called me a fagot and I was like, and I

0:29:19.440 --> 0:29:23.280
<v Speaker 1>was like, shut up you like literally like drink barbecue sauce,

0:29:23.400 --> 0:29:28.280
<v Speaker 1>like you're disgusting. Who's the real fag real fag here?

0:29:28.640 --> 0:29:31.280
<v Speaker 1>But like in that moment, I wasn't like sick for home.

0:29:31.400 --> 0:29:32.960
<v Speaker 1>I was like eleven years old, and I was like,

0:29:33.040 --> 0:29:35.680
<v Speaker 1>I need to be in a hotel, like I cannot

0:29:36.200 --> 0:29:38.360
<v Speaker 1>be here. I need to be comfortable.

0:29:38.520 --> 0:29:42.600
<v Speaker 2>You're such a fucking taurus. Did you do Did you

0:29:42.680 --> 0:29:44.040
<v Speaker 2>do color war at camp?

0:29:44.200 --> 0:29:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Is that where you like would fling like you know,

0:29:46.760 --> 0:29:49.920
<v Speaker 1>colored powder or like like paint balloons or something or

0:29:49.960 --> 0:29:55.120
<v Speaker 1>what I remember? But color war colors like a race war.

0:29:55.240 --> 0:29:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Phoebe said, the camp color wally, and there are you know,

0:29:59.440 --> 0:30:02.840
<v Speaker 1>a hundred white, I mean, and three people of helm.

0:30:03.160 --> 0:30:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Kind of it's like a it's like a week long

0:30:07.200 --> 0:30:10.480
<v Speaker 1>camp wide thing where one half of camp is one color,

0:30:10.640 --> 0:30:12.120
<v Speaker 1>one half of camp is another color.

0:30:12.160 --> 0:30:16.280
<v Speaker 2>It's usually red and blue is the number of It

0:30:16.440 --> 0:30:19.160
<v Speaker 2>is a race war, and there's a number of competitions

0:30:19.240 --> 0:30:23.160
<v Speaker 2>throughout the week, and one color wins at the end.

0:30:23.320 --> 0:30:25.360
<v Speaker 2>So the camp I went to was split up into

0:30:25.840 --> 0:30:29.320
<v Speaker 2>sessions throughout the summer, so there was like the early session,

0:30:29.360 --> 0:30:31.840
<v Speaker 2>the middle session, the late session. My brother and I

0:30:31.880 --> 0:30:34.280
<v Speaker 2>always went there for the early sessions because school in

0:30:34.360 --> 0:30:37.040
<v Speaker 2>Florida let out earlier, but then we went back to

0:30:37.160 --> 0:30:40.520
<v Speaker 2>school earlier, so we went back to school like mid August.

0:30:41.000 --> 0:30:42.719
<v Speaker 2>The kids who were in the Northeast didn't go back

0:30:42.760 --> 0:30:46.680
<v Speaker 2>to school until after Labor Day, so they would always

0:30:46.760 --> 0:30:50.400
<v Speaker 2>be there for the third session, and color War always

0:30:50.520 --> 0:30:53.479
<v Speaker 2>happened during the third session, except for my last year

0:30:53.520 --> 0:30:56.800
<v Speaker 2>at camp, which honestly was the year before my freshman

0:30:56.840 --> 0:30:58.480
<v Speaker 2>year of high school. I was a little too old

0:30:58.520 --> 0:31:00.400
<v Speaker 2>to be here there. I was a little too old

0:31:00.440 --> 0:31:02.320
<v Speaker 2>for camp that year, and I really hated it. But

0:31:02.440 --> 0:31:04.600
<v Speaker 2>that was the summer where all the suckingd fucking happened.

0:31:05.120 --> 0:31:06.600
<v Speaker 2>But that was the summer that I got to do

0:31:06.720 --> 0:31:09.960
<v Speaker 2>Color War and I was blue and my color lost.

0:31:10.640 --> 0:31:13.480
<v Speaker 2>And when I tell you, I have never been more

0:31:13.560 --> 0:31:16.840
<v Speaker 2>devastated in my life than when we lost Color War.

0:31:17.200 --> 0:31:21.200
<v Speaker 2>And I didn't participate in a single activity. I am

0:31:21.320 --> 0:31:24.880
<v Speaker 2>not an outdoor girl in that way. I'm not doing

0:31:24.960 --> 0:31:27.600
<v Speaker 2>the three legged race, I'm not hopping in a potato sock.

0:31:28.080 --> 0:31:33.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm not doing like a baton relay race. I couldn't

0:31:33.240 --> 0:31:38.880
<v Speaker 2>give a shit. But when we lost Color War, I sobbed.

0:31:39.840 --> 0:31:45.560
<v Speaker 1>I subbed, Babetta, get like my mom died. I gotta

0:31:45.640 --> 0:31:49.040
<v Speaker 1>get a grip, my god, I do we Okay? So

0:31:49.160 --> 0:31:52.640
<v Speaker 1>our camp definitely had a kind of a kind of

0:31:52.880 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 1>camp wide game. We're in the respective cabins were pit

0:31:57.360 --> 0:32:00.320
<v Speaker 1>against each other like each cabin is a team, and

0:32:00.440 --> 0:32:02.320
<v Speaker 1>everyone had to do something something throughout the week. I

0:32:02.320 --> 0:32:05.000
<v Speaker 1>don't even remember what the object object was, which is

0:32:05.040 --> 0:32:08.000
<v Speaker 1>how little I cared. But on that note, uh, just

0:32:08.200 --> 0:32:11.000
<v Speaker 1>another reason why camp is just not really my thing,

0:32:11.280 --> 0:32:15.640
<v Speaker 1>especially when it comes to boys. Camp is I Since

0:32:15.680 --> 0:32:19.200
<v Speaker 1>I was a teeny tiny baby and now as a

0:32:19.240 --> 0:32:23.480
<v Speaker 1>full fledged adults remains to be true. I absolutely despise

0:32:24.080 --> 0:32:27.520
<v Speaker 1>manual labor of any kind. I will not do it

0:32:27.800 --> 0:32:30.560
<v Speaker 1>unless I absolutely have to labor. No, yeah, I'm all

0:32:30.560 --> 0:32:34.040
<v Speaker 1>about that. Will manual labor. Okay, I'm not tranual labor.

0:32:34.160 --> 0:32:37.880
<v Speaker 1>That's so funny. Emual labor. Yeah, that's all I was

0:32:37.960 --> 0:32:39.600
<v Speaker 1>trying to do. I was like, look out for that

0:32:39.760 --> 0:32:43.840
<v Speaker 1>podcast coming next year. To that to the outspoken me

0:32:43.960 --> 0:32:48.880
<v Speaker 1>and Jonathan Vndes, No, I'm just kidding. No, Jonathan is transit,

0:32:51.000 --> 0:32:54.840
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, I I am really just There's so many

0:32:54.920 --> 0:32:57.560
<v Speaker 1>things that I loved about summer Camp, primarily just not

0:32:57.760 --> 0:33:00.800
<v Speaker 1>being around my parents for two three weeks, but and

0:33:00.920 --> 0:33:03.560
<v Speaker 1>I also loved, you know, autonomy. I loved like being

0:33:03.680 --> 0:33:07.560
<v Speaker 1>able to like build friendships like outside of the context

0:33:07.640 --> 0:33:10.200
<v Speaker 1>of your own life, as we've talked about. But something

0:33:10.280 --> 0:33:12.840
<v Speaker 1>that Phoebe has said in the chat that I think

0:33:12.960 --> 0:33:15.680
<v Speaker 1>is a very lesbian contribution to this conversation is that

0:33:16.320 --> 0:33:20.560
<v Speaker 1>parent Trap was extremely formative of my kind of like

0:33:21.080 --> 0:33:25.720
<v Speaker 1>view on summer Camp. Like the summer camp in the

0:33:25.880 --> 0:33:30.880
<v Speaker 1>movie is so idyllic and like fun and creative and

0:33:31.480 --> 0:33:35.800
<v Speaker 1>naughty troublemakery, like you aspire to be as cool and

0:33:35.960 --> 0:33:38.960
<v Speaker 1>like like as a rich a narrative as like those kids,

0:33:39.280 --> 0:33:42.239
<v Speaker 1>and I really did fulfill that like ore and rich.

0:33:42.360 --> 0:33:44.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, yeah, let's let's say that like those kids

0:33:44.360 --> 0:33:47.520
<v Speaker 1>were rich, But no, I really did, like you have

0:33:47.720 --> 0:33:49.920
<v Speaker 1>to be to be being sent to these camps, Like

0:33:50.000 --> 0:33:52.440
<v Speaker 1>they cost a lot of money. OURK summer camps had

0:33:52.560 --> 0:33:57.320
<v Speaker 1>like scholarships where you would get like stipends to like

0:33:57.440 --> 0:33:59.240
<v Speaker 1>offset the cost of your like tuition.

0:33:59.800 --> 0:34:02.560
<v Speaker 2>But if I if I remember correctly, yeah, I actually

0:34:02.560 --> 0:34:05.800
<v Speaker 2>think it costs like I think probably like a thousand

0:34:05.920 --> 0:34:11.200
<v Speaker 2>dollars or something like that for me to go. I

0:34:11.280 --> 0:34:13.400
<v Speaker 2>think it was at least a thousand dollars. I actually

0:34:13.480 --> 0:34:15.319
<v Speaker 2>need to check in. I actually don't know how much

0:34:15.520 --> 0:34:18.319
<v Speaker 2>how much it was, but I don't know. I did

0:34:18.400 --> 0:34:19.800
<v Speaker 2>you do you like parent Trap?

0:34:20.160 --> 0:34:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Are you? Are you a parent Trap stand? Because I

0:34:22.000 --> 0:34:26.440
<v Speaker 1>love the of course I feel like Meredith Blake, right,

0:34:27.040 --> 0:34:31.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Meredith Blake is definitely formative cultural like figure

0:34:32.080 --> 0:34:35.560
<v Speaker 1>like the evil femmes that I would latch onto. Meredith

0:34:36.040 --> 0:34:42.040
<v Speaker 1>invented athletes. I feel like the parent Trap was unfortunately

0:34:42.239 --> 0:34:47.160
<v Speaker 1>a very millennial thing, like it's like everyone yeah, like

0:34:47.200 --> 0:34:50.959
<v Speaker 1>BuzzFeed culture like loves the Parent Trap, like the Parent Traps.

0:34:51.360 --> 0:34:55.399
<v Speaker 1>They'll they'll never stop talking about it. It's like it's

0:34:55.440 --> 0:34:58.439
<v Speaker 1>the only movie that came out in the in the nineties. Yeah,

0:34:59.760 --> 0:35:00.799
<v Speaker 1>that in Napoleone. So so.

0:35:02.600 --> 0:35:05.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't know about you, but you know, as I said,

0:35:06.560 --> 0:35:09.520
<v Speaker 2>theater was the thing that I did at camp.

0:35:09.880 --> 0:35:12.399
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's that was my reason for being there.

0:35:13.200 --> 0:35:17.120
<v Speaker 1>All the world of stage. Honey, hand me a microphone.

0:35:17.520 --> 0:35:20.760
<v Speaker 1>And as I said, I starred in almost every production

0:35:21.200 --> 0:35:23.239
<v Speaker 1>that we did during my time there. I was in

0:35:23.360 --> 0:35:26.200
<v Speaker 1>Annie Get Your Gun. I was in Newsy's.

0:35:26.280 --> 0:35:28.719
<v Speaker 2>We did a production of Newsies long before it was

0:35:28.800 --> 0:35:30.320
<v Speaker 2>made into a Broadway show, so it was like not

0:35:30.520 --> 0:35:32.560
<v Speaker 2>very normal to do Newsies as a stage show.

0:35:32.760 --> 0:35:35.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we can believe this, But would you like

0:35:35.160 --> 0:35:38.480
<v Speaker 1>to share who you played at any of these respective Yeah?

0:35:38.600 --> 0:35:41.000
<v Speaker 2>I was Frank in Newsy I mean I was Frank

0:35:41.040 --> 0:35:42.879
<v Speaker 2>and any Get Your Gun, which is the male lead.

0:35:43.040 --> 0:35:45.200
<v Speaker 1>I did you know anything you can do? I can

0:35:45.280 --> 0:35:45.640
<v Speaker 1>do better?

0:35:45.800 --> 0:35:47.840
<v Speaker 2>And of course all of these shows I wanted to

0:35:47.920 --> 0:35:51.120
<v Speaker 2>play the I wanted to be Annie. And like it's

0:35:51.200 --> 0:35:54.720
<v Speaker 2>the thing is there was still gender bending that happened

0:35:54.800 --> 0:35:58.280
<v Speaker 2>because when I was in Newsi's the Christian Bale character

0:35:58.640 --> 0:36:01.960
<v Speaker 2>was played by a little because there were not enough

0:36:02.040 --> 0:36:05.080
<v Speaker 2>boys who wanted to do a theater, so they were

0:36:05.239 --> 0:36:07.799
<v Speaker 2>casting It's like, you know, it's like very peter Pan.

0:36:10.239 --> 0:36:13.920
<v Speaker 1>This. They cast this like like androgynous young.

0:36:14.160 --> 0:36:19.360
<v Speaker 2>Female Williams in Yeah, I went to camp with Alison Williams.

0:36:19.480 --> 0:36:23.399
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I like I was such in my mind,

0:36:23.560 --> 0:36:26.640
<v Speaker 2>I was such hot shit. But like the whole half

0:36:26.719 --> 0:36:30.040
<v Speaker 2>of the camp that like didn't do anything, you know, theatrical,

0:36:30.840 --> 0:36:32.120
<v Speaker 2>like thought we were all losers.

0:36:32.120 --> 0:36:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Which would you say on a metric of quality and

0:36:35.000 --> 0:36:37.680
<v Speaker 1>your critical eye was the best production you did?

0:36:38.800 --> 0:36:42.200
<v Speaker 2>And why probably any gets your gun because there weren't

0:36:42.200 --> 0:36:44.680
<v Speaker 2>as many fucking like toddlers in it as there were

0:36:44.760 --> 0:36:46.840
<v Speaker 2>in Yeazies because we had to fill out the cast.

0:36:47.040 --> 0:36:47.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:36:47.600 --> 0:36:50.440
<v Speaker 2>And then my last year at camp, when I was

0:36:50.640 --> 0:36:52.759
<v Speaker 2>I had gotten you know, too old, I was like,

0:36:52.840 --> 0:36:55.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm not doing theater this year because I'm better than this,

0:36:55.360 --> 0:36:58.000
<v Speaker 2>because I'm going you know, I was like going to

0:36:58.120 --> 0:37:00.400
<v Speaker 2>an art school that fall, and I was like, fuck this,

0:37:00.520 --> 0:37:02.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm just gonna like listen to my.

0:37:02.840 --> 0:37:08.360
<v Speaker 1>Walk and smoke weed, smoke me hold my ship, smoke weed,

0:37:08.920 --> 0:37:11.479
<v Speaker 1>suck my first dick, fall in love with my best

0:37:11.520 --> 0:37:14.239
<v Speaker 1>friend and go figure skating, because that's something we got

0:37:14.280 --> 0:37:16.839
<v Speaker 1>to do. At my camp, they had, you know, your day,

0:37:16.880 --> 0:37:18.960
<v Speaker 1>split them into activities, and you have to sign up

0:37:19.000 --> 0:37:21.279
<v Speaker 1>for activities every day. And one of the things we

0:37:21.360 --> 0:37:25.280
<v Speaker 1>could do was take the camp vans to the local

0:37:25.400 --> 0:37:28.800
<v Speaker 1>ice skating rink and you could either do figure skating

0:37:29.320 --> 0:37:31.000
<v Speaker 1>or ice hockey. Do you want to guess which one

0:37:31.040 --> 0:37:35.959
<v Speaker 1>they did? Probably figure skating. I'm gonna guess trick question.

0:37:36.160 --> 0:37:42.760
<v Speaker 1>I did both. I did both. Wait, wait, figure skating

0:37:42.800 --> 0:37:44.960
<v Speaker 1>doesn't seem like something you would like. Were you good

0:37:44.960 --> 0:37:47.440
<v Speaker 1>at it? I love figure skating.

0:37:47.440 --> 0:37:49.680
<v Speaker 2>I was not good at it, but I was, you know,

0:37:50.320 --> 0:37:53.880
<v Speaker 2>I was like twirling while Drops of Jubiter was playing

0:37:53.960 --> 0:37:55.000
<v Speaker 2>over the sound system.

0:37:55.160 --> 0:37:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, not Drops of Jubiter. They were doing

0:37:58.280 --> 0:38:02.600
<v Speaker 1>what's that Aerosmith song? I don't want to miss thing?

0:38:03.200 --> 0:38:07.839
<v Speaker 1>Remember we I didn't. I hated sports of any kind,

0:38:07.960 --> 0:38:10.480
<v Speaker 1>so but yeah, I don't know what like summer camp

0:38:10.560 --> 0:38:14.720
<v Speaker 1>they just they kind of Summer camps are like extremely gendered,

0:38:14.800 --> 0:38:19.120
<v Speaker 1>but also I fear like two genderless, Like they really

0:38:19.200 --> 0:38:21.640
<v Speaker 1>try and mesh boys and girls in like games of

0:38:21.760 --> 0:38:25.280
<v Speaker 1>sports and like relay races and like high ropes courses,

0:38:25.320 --> 0:38:28.680
<v Speaker 1>and it's like, actually, no, like we should be segregating

0:38:28.760 --> 0:38:31.640
<v Speaker 1>genders and the girls should just do arts and I

0:38:31.800 --> 0:38:35.520
<v Speaker 1>should be a girl like I. I do not want

0:38:35.600 --> 0:38:37.880
<v Speaker 1>to do the high rope scores. I don't want to

0:38:37.960 --> 0:38:39.880
<v Speaker 1>do the sports. I don't want to do the manual

0:38:39.960 --> 0:38:44.719
<v Speaker 1>labor like just like like shelter me, treat me like

0:38:45.440 --> 0:38:50.640
<v Speaker 1>a fragile, little, you know, porcelain doll and never let

0:38:50.719 --> 0:38:52.280
<v Speaker 1>me be in danger.

0:38:52.680 --> 0:38:56.359
<v Speaker 2>Sorry, no, I I agree, but a slight but from

0:38:56.400 --> 0:38:59.120
<v Speaker 2>a slightly different angle. Because I was a fat kid obviously,

0:38:59.280 --> 0:39:02.879
<v Speaker 2>so I hated playing sports. I was really bad at them.

0:39:03.640 --> 0:39:06.719
<v Speaker 2>I was not I was an indoor kid, so I

0:39:06.840 --> 0:39:11.040
<v Speaker 2>was always somewhere reading and or doing theater, or like

0:39:11.239 --> 0:39:13.680
<v Speaker 2>at the Arts and Crafts building doing arts and crafts.

0:39:13.840 --> 0:39:17.640
<v Speaker 2>I did not want to play sports, except when I

0:39:17.719 --> 0:39:19.480
<v Speaker 2>was doing ice hockey and I was actually d.

0:39:19.480 --> 0:39:23.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay wait, I have no oh my god, the most

0:39:23.560 --> 0:39:28.600
<v Speaker 1>visceral childhood slash teenage memories have like come back to

0:39:28.680 --> 0:39:32.200
<v Speaker 1>me of probably my best year at Jesus Camp, wherein

0:39:32.400 --> 0:39:34.920
<v Speaker 1>I did date that girl or try to date that girl, Ashley,

0:39:34.960 --> 0:39:37.640
<v Speaker 1>and I was also madly in love with my best

0:39:37.680 --> 0:39:42.960
<v Speaker 1>camp friend named Luke, who we were both so viciously closeted.

0:39:43.400 --> 0:39:48.080
<v Speaker 1>He had bleach blonde hair and a mere apostle, plaid

0:39:48.640 --> 0:39:52.080
<v Speaker 1>shorts and like you know those like canvas leather thongs,

0:39:52.160 --> 0:39:55.680
<v Speaker 1>like pleather thongs, I mean for the the ones that

0:39:55.800 --> 0:39:58.760
<v Speaker 1>I was wearing in that. Yeah, honey, he was dressed.

0:40:00.040 --> 0:40:04.359
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, I hate that. I love it at

0:40:04.400 --> 0:40:08.840
<v Speaker 1>summer camp. Okay, but I was going to ask you

0:40:09.160 --> 0:40:11.920
<v Speaker 1>a question that would lead into my story. Did you

0:40:11.960 --> 0:40:16.640
<v Speaker 1>get naked in the locker rooms? Was their nudity? No?

0:40:16.920 --> 0:40:20.640
<v Speaker 2>It was always like covering myself with a towel, changing,

0:40:21.320 --> 0:40:22.560
<v Speaker 2>changing in the shower stuff.

0:40:23.360 --> 0:40:27.560
<v Speaker 1>The girls, other boys, the other girls, thanks for driving

0:40:28.360 --> 0:40:31.719
<v Speaker 1>the other other boys they were oh no, they were

0:40:31.760 --> 0:40:36.279
<v Speaker 1>walking around like fucking they didn't care. It was like, well,

0:40:36.320 --> 0:40:38.200
<v Speaker 1>it was you know this thing that teen boys do

0:40:38.280 --> 0:40:41.399
<v Speaker 1>where it's like it's engaged. You know, they're engaging. They're

0:40:41.440 --> 0:40:44.160
<v Speaker 1>engaging in the most home erootic behavior, but like with

0:40:44.280 --> 0:40:47.440
<v Speaker 1>the most no homes. And it's honestly like the kids

0:40:47.520 --> 0:40:49.839
<v Speaker 1>that were like grew up Christian had so much shame

0:40:49.920 --> 0:40:52.400
<v Speaker 1>that we just like had our tidies, tidy whities, on

0:40:52.640 --> 0:40:56.919
<v Speaker 1>for dear life and like not showering the entire week,

0:40:56.960 --> 0:40:59.160
<v Speaker 1>because like that was like the most terrifying thing I

0:40:59.160 --> 0:41:02.239
<v Speaker 1>could possibly in front of someone, like being naked. But

0:41:02.880 --> 0:41:06.920
<v Speaker 1>to your point, all these other little everywhere, all these

0:41:06.960 --> 0:41:09.440
<v Speaker 1>other little boys were like love to be naked, and

0:41:09.560 --> 0:41:12.120
<v Speaker 1>we're totally comfortable with it. And I remember enving them

0:41:12.160 --> 0:41:14.840
<v Speaker 1>and being like why, Like why am I so afraid

0:41:14.920 --> 0:41:20.480
<v Speaker 1>to be nude? But I rose seeing my crushes penises

0:41:20.840 --> 0:41:24.439
<v Speaker 1>in this shower and like the feeling that that has

0:41:24.600 --> 0:41:26.840
<v Speaker 1>it's like pool party. It's like pool party trauma, Like

0:41:27.200 --> 0:41:31.000
<v Speaker 1>it's so there's so much shame. But also I was

0:41:31.239 --> 0:41:35.160
<v Speaker 1>so confused about what I was feeling, and like we

0:41:35.320 --> 0:41:36.920
<v Speaker 1>were and the two of us, me and Luke were

0:41:36.960 --> 0:41:39.399
<v Speaker 1>like so in the closet and so clearly into each

0:41:39.400 --> 0:41:43.719
<v Speaker 1>other because we're spending every minute together and yet and

0:41:44.000 --> 0:41:46.479
<v Speaker 1>I remember them being like they were like, why don't

0:41:46.480 --> 0:41:48.160
<v Speaker 1>you get naked too? And I'm like, what the the

0:41:48.280 --> 0:41:52.680
<v Speaker 1>homosociality of summer camp in general? Like what is that?

0:41:52.880 --> 0:41:55.279
<v Speaker 1>It's so confusing? I don't know.

0:41:55.360 --> 0:41:58.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, well, it's well, you're all going through puberty,

0:41:58.480 --> 0:42:02.719
<v Speaker 2>it's very sexually charged. Everything is sexual. I actually I

0:42:02.800 --> 0:42:05.920
<v Speaker 2>can't speak for anyone else, but after I went through puberty,

0:42:06.200 --> 0:42:09.920
<v Speaker 2>I was under the covers fappen every night that blank

0:42:10.080 --> 0:42:13.200
<v Speaker 2>That blanket could have been cracked in from all the

0:42:13.400 --> 0:42:16.520
<v Speaker 2>dry throat of the dry ye on it. Because I

0:42:17.280 --> 0:42:20.439
<v Speaker 2>there was one summer that I found I was learning

0:42:20.480 --> 0:42:24.160
<v Speaker 2>to play the drums in the band cabin, the band

0:42:24.239 --> 0:42:27.880
<v Speaker 2>bunk or whatever, and I found a porn novel on

0:42:28.040 --> 0:42:32.120
<v Speaker 2>the floor and I it gave me so much material

0:42:32.239 --> 0:42:32.600
<v Speaker 2>to work with.

0:42:32.840 --> 0:42:37.080
<v Speaker 1>You love the written word, baby, I love the written word.

0:42:37.360 --> 0:42:42.640
<v Speaker 1>To yank your crank too, baby, Uncle Ronnie do horties.

0:43:03.440 --> 0:43:05.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, when you're at that like qu best and

0:43:05.480 --> 0:43:08.200
<v Speaker 1>preps in age, like you're starting to make sex jokes.

0:43:08.200 --> 0:43:10.040
<v Speaker 1>And even though we were at Jesus Camp, the kids

0:43:10.080 --> 0:43:12.239
<v Speaker 1>would like make jokes and then the counselors would like

0:43:12.400 --> 0:43:15.319
<v Speaker 1>yell at them. But mind you, the counselors are really

0:43:15.480 --> 0:43:19.000
<v Speaker 1>only like seventeen, Like they're not even like of age.

0:43:19.040 --> 0:43:21.520
<v Speaker 1>They're just like, you know, three or four years older

0:43:21.800 --> 0:43:25.279
<v Speaker 1>than the kids they are attending to. And like when

0:43:25.320 --> 0:43:28.720
<v Speaker 1>you're that young, three to five years feels like twenty years,

0:43:28.840 --> 0:43:32.600
<v Speaker 1>like they might as well be thirty something. Yeah, did

0:43:32.640 --> 0:43:35.040
<v Speaker 1>any of the counselors that your camp fuck the campaigners

0:43:35.640 --> 0:43:37.919
<v Speaker 1>because that that happened. Oh, oh my god, that's really

0:43:37.960 --> 0:43:40.319
<v Speaker 1>fucked up. No, but one of them was, yeah, they

0:43:40.400 --> 0:43:41.640
<v Speaker 1>used to get us if they used to get us

0:43:41.680 --> 0:43:43.960
<v Speaker 1>booze and they used to fuck. There were two that

0:43:44.160 --> 0:43:46.480
<v Speaker 1>So the year that my favorite year at summer camp

0:43:46.480 --> 0:43:48.640
<v Speaker 1>where I fell in love with Luke and Ashley, I

0:43:48.760 --> 0:43:54.920
<v Speaker 1>also had two very transparently closeted gay counselors named Gloria

0:43:55.080 --> 0:43:59.960
<v Speaker 1>and Kenny. And I remember Kenny yelling at these kids

0:44:00.520 --> 0:44:03.319
<v Speaker 1>because like one of them was like under his cover

0:44:03.560 --> 0:44:06.600
<v Speaker 1>and like proclaiming to the rest of the cabin that

0:44:06.680 --> 0:44:08.920
<v Speaker 1>he was like playing with himself. And I was like,

0:44:10.080 --> 0:44:12.759
<v Speaker 1>this guy, you have like a like a kind of

0:44:12.960 --> 0:44:15.759
<v Speaker 1>like exhibitionist like thing that you know you're going to

0:44:15.800 --> 0:44:20.040
<v Speaker 1>discover later on in life. Yeah, wait, who are camp counselors? What?

0:44:20.440 --> 0:44:25.480
<v Speaker 1>So did you ever become a camp counselor? Yes, but

0:44:25.800 --> 0:44:28.520
<v Speaker 1>but never never for a summer camp. There were a

0:44:28.680 --> 0:44:30.720
<v Speaker 1>couple years.

0:44:30.480 --> 0:44:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Where I was a camp counselor at like a winter

0:44:35.239 --> 0:44:39.759
<v Speaker 2>break camp, but I was always more of a babysitter.

0:44:40.320 --> 0:44:43.279
<v Speaker 1>I did not do a lot of camp counselor ing.

0:44:43.400 --> 0:44:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I was never a c T a counselor in training,

0:44:47.480 --> 0:44:49.880
<v Speaker 1>but my younger brother was. At one point I was,

0:44:50.360 --> 0:44:53.640
<v Speaker 1>and we still had to pay to be there. We

0:44:53.760 --> 0:44:59.360
<v Speaker 1>had to pay a discounted camp rate to basically do

0:45:00.960 --> 0:45:04.200
<v Speaker 1>essentially like free labor for the summer camp counseling these kids.

0:45:04.320 --> 0:45:08.360
<v Speaker 1>And we like clean toilets and like did like cafeteria shifts,

0:45:08.840 --> 0:45:12.520
<v Speaker 1>like what we had to pay to do that. It's crazy.

0:45:14.560 --> 0:45:18.960
<v Speaker 1>But I was gonna say something that was very silly

0:45:19.080 --> 0:45:20.960
<v Speaker 1>that I had to then do as a camp counselor

0:45:21.040 --> 0:45:24.560
<v Speaker 1>but also did as a camper. Was after I think

0:45:24.600 --> 0:45:29.560
<v Speaker 1>I've already told you this before, after every single camp activity,

0:45:29.640 --> 0:45:33.480
<v Speaker 1>whether it was like zipline, like doing tubing, the blob

0:45:33.719 --> 0:45:40.000
<v Speaker 1>arts and crafts whatever, after tubing, after every activity, we

0:45:40.120 --> 0:45:42.680
<v Speaker 1>would get in a circle, like our cabin would get

0:45:42.680 --> 0:45:44.719
<v Speaker 1>in a circle, and we would talk about how that

0:45:44.840 --> 0:45:48.800
<v Speaker 1>activity related to Jesus Christ. And it'd be like, so

0:45:49.000 --> 0:45:52.680
<v Speaker 1>today today we're at the high robes chores, Like, how

0:45:52.840 --> 0:45:55.279
<v Speaker 1>is this like your relationship with Jesus? And I was like,

0:45:55.719 --> 0:45:59.719
<v Speaker 1>Jesus is the ropes and gravity is the devil, and

0:46:00.040 --> 0:46:02.239
<v Speaker 1>and you know if you fall, it's a sin. And

0:46:02.640 --> 0:46:04.160
<v Speaker 1>like that's like what we had to do. We had

0:46:04.200 --> 0:46:07.920
<v Speaker 1>to like metaphorize like every fucking thing we did, Like

0:46:08.160 --> 0:46:11.840
<v Speaker 1>we were like, you know, eighth grade English students, and

0:46:12.840 --> 0:46:16.239
<v Speaker 1>I hate I hated it. It was so forced. Wow,

0:46:16.719 --> 0:46:18.000
<v Speaker 1>that's so lame.

0:46:19.120 --> 0:46:24.080
<v Speaker 2>The summer after my last year at Sleepway Camp, because

0:46:24.080 --> 0:46:25.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, my brother was still going to camp and

0:46:25.680 --> 0:46:28.239
<v Speaker 2>my mom obviously still wanted to get rid of me.

0:46:28.360 --> 0:46:32.000
<v Speaker 2>During the summer, I did the sort of next level

0:46:32.040 --> 0:46:34.360
<v Speaker 2>of camp, which is a teen tour. Do you know

0:46:34.360 --> 0:46:35.160
<v Speaker 2>what a teen tour is?

0:46:35.880 --> 0:46:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? What is it?

0:46:36.880 --> 0:46:40.960
<v Speaker 2>So it's like a bunch of teenagers are sent on

0:46:41.080 --> 0:46:45.400
<v Speaker 2>a trip. It's like traveling summer camp. So you're on

0:46:45.920 --> 0:46:49.400
<v Speaker 2>a bus with a bunch of other teenagers and you

0:46:49.640 --> 0:46:52.359
<v Speaker 2>go on like a pre selected route. So the teen

0:46:52.400 --> 0:46:57.040
<v Speaker 2>tour I went on was all the West Coast, so

0:46:57.239 --> 0:46:59.640
<v Speaker 2>we would go to like the national parks. We went

0:46:59.680 --> 0:47:03.359
<v Speaker 2>to Stay Francisco, we went to La went to Salt

0:47:03.440 --> 0:47:07.040
<v Speaker 2>Lake City, I think, and some of them are all camping,

0:47:07.280 --> 0:47:09.960
<v Speaker 2>some of them are all hotels. Ours was half and

0:47:10.080 --> 0:47:14.760
<v Speaker 2>half and yeah, it's it's like summer camp on the road,

0:47:16.160 --> 0:47:19.000
<v Speaker 2>and so it's like a little bit more grown up,

0:47:19.080 --> 0:47:21.799
<v Speaker 2>and I felt very worldly. You know that I went

0:47:21.960 --> 0:47:27.960
<v Speaker 2>and explored the other side of the country. And that's

0:47:28.000 --> 0:47:33.040
<v Speaker 2>also where I made my first designer purchase ever, was

0:47:33.080 --> 0:47:35.480
<v Speaker 2>in San Francisco. I went to the Louis Bauton store

0:47:35.960 --> 0:47:39.920
<v Speaker 2>and bought a pair of slides with my mom's Target

0:47:40.000 --> 0:47:42.400
<v Speaker 2>credit card that she had given me for emergency.

0:47:42.440 --> 0:47:47.200
<v Speaker 1>You were such a little brat like I was. Abe

0:47:47.640 --> 0:47:51.200
<v Speaker 1>LV is like the Gateway luxury brand those But why

0:47:51.400 --> 0:47:53.880
<v Speaker 1>those bags are hideous? I guess they are kind of

0:47:54.040 --> 0:47:57.200
<v Speaker 1>like doniye Burk adjacent, Like they are so ugly that

0:47:57.360 --> 0:48:01.520
<v Speaker 1>Midwestern moms like just have to have them. It's just

0:48:01.560 --> 0:48:02.280
<v Speaker 1>about the label.

0:48:02.320 --> 0:48:05.360
<v Speaker 2>It's like the most it's the most visible logo of

0:48:05.560 --> 0:48:07.720
<v Speaker 2>any you know, designer friend.

0:48:08.760 --> 0:48:13.759
<v Speaker 1>What when did you stop going to camp? Not soon enough?

0:48:13.880 --> 0:48:16.920
<v Speaker 1>I actually don't know. I probably stopped when I was, like,

0:48:17.080 --> 0:48:20.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, definitely before I think my I think freshman

0:48:20.600 --> 0:48:24.000
<v Speaker 1>year of high school maybe was my last year. Like

0:48:24.080 --> 0:48:27.440
<v Speaker 1>I think that by the time I had entered high school,

0:48:27.600 --> 0:48:31.440
<v Speaker 1>I had started to, you know, liberate myself a little bit.

0:48:32.680 --> 0:48:34.840
<v Speaker 1>I was starting to think for myself. I was trying to,

0:48:35.080 --> 0:48:38.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, figure out who I was. And I think

0:48:38.400 --> 0:48:41.640
<v Speaker 1>as a consequence of that I just hated church, hated Christianity,

0:48:41.719 --> 0:48:45.320
<v Speaker 1>hated like being around church people, and was just pulling

0:48:45.360 --> 0:48:48.040
<v Speaker 1>away from it as much as possible. So I did,

0:48:48.480 --> 0:48:52.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, eventually stop going. But it felt so sad,

0:48:52.920 --> 0:48:55.719
<v Speaker 1>like I felt, I feel like because I was such

0:48:55.760 --> 0:48:57.600
<v Speaker 1>a I don't know what kind of like high.

0:48:57.400 --> 0:49:00.280
<v Speaker 3>School that you were, like, I was such a loser

0:49:00.440 --> 0:49:04.400
<v Speaker 3>in school, like a loser, loser, loser until like pretty

0:49:04.480 --> 0:49:07.960
<v Speaker 3>much my last two years of school before college and.

0:49:10.040 --> 0:49:12.160
<v Speaker 1>Summer camp is where I felt like I belonged, Like

0:49:12.480 --> 0:49:14.239
<v Speaker 1>uh yeah, And you know why.

0:49:14.400 --> 0:49:16.719
<v Speaker 2>You know why that is because you get to lie

0:49:16.760 --> 0:49:19.359
<v Speaker 2>about who you are because no, because no one goes

0:49:19.400 --> 0:49:21.759
<v Speaker 2>to school with you, So you get to lie your

0:49:21.960 --> 0:49:24.200
<v Speaker 2>ass off about your life and make yourself sound a

0:49:24.280 --> 0:49:27.040
<v Speaker 2>lot cooler than you are. The only problem I ran

0:49:27.120 --> 0:49:28.919
<v Speaker 2>into with that was that I had a younger brother

0:49:29.320 --> 0:49:33.040
<v Speaker 2>who was always happy to contradict my lies and tell

0:49:33.080 --> 0:49:34.879
<v Speaker 2>people what the truth was about my life.

0:49:35.160 --> 0:49:38.440
<v Speaker 1>EW I knowed I hate I mean, I I mean,

0:49:38.719 --> 0:49:40.960
<v Speaker 1>I was like definitely in there being like, yeah, I'm straight,

0:49:41.040 --> 0:49:44.520
<v Speaker 1>you gras, I'm totally a boy, you guys, But I

0:49:44.600 --> 0:49:50.400
<v Speaker 1>feel like there is like I feel like I was

0:49:50.600 --> 0:49:54.320
<v Speaker 1>ultimately actually trying to be myself because I couldn't be

0:49:54.480 --> 0:49:58.480
<v Speaker 1>myself back at home in some way. So I am

0:49:58.640 --> 0:50:01.200
<v Speaker 1>grateful to like have had that space in Summer camp.

0:50:01.280 --> 0:50:03.840
<v Speaker 1>And something else that's very specific to Jesus Camp that

0:50:04.280 --> 0:50:05.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you did a version of this,

0:50:05.760 --> 0:50:09.279
<v Speaker 1>but every night, or maybe every other night, maybe we

0:50:09.320 --> 0:50:11.759
<v Speaker 1>took a night off every other night or so, we

0:50:11.800 --> 0:50:13.800
<v Speaker 1>would have like a kind of campfire moment where we

0:50:13.800 --> 0:50:15.839
<v Speaker 1>would do like a little worship music and we would

0:50:15.920 --> 0:50:19.960
<v Speaker 1>like do like an icebreak or something, and then we

0:50:20.040 --> 0:50:26.200
<v Speaker 1>would take turns sharing our deepest, darkest trauma. And and literally,

0:50:27.120 --> 0:50:29.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm not joking, I'm not joking. It was like it

0:50:29.880 --> 0:50:33.360
<v Speaker 1>was is honestly, it's honestly like the heart Circles of

0:50:33.680 --> 0:50:37.239
<v Speaker 1>Beltane like it. But the way it was so methodical,

0:50:37.480 --> 0:50:42.680
<v Speaker 1>like every single kid was required to have like a

0:50:42.880 --> 0:50:46.640
<v Speaker 1>sharing moment at this campfire, and because of the prompts

0:50:46.680 --> 0:50:49.200
<v Speaker 1>and like how it was set up to like you know,

0:50:49.280 --> 0:50:51.640
<v Speaker 1>basically like asking about how you accepted Jesus in your

0:50:51.640 --> 0:50:53.440
<v Speaker 1>heart and like what your like kind of biggest obstacle

0:50:53.520 --> 0:50:56.600
<v Speaker 1>was in it or whatever. These kids were like sobbing

0:50:56.760 --> 0:50:59.800
<v Speaker 1>and talking about you know, when they were like abuse

0:51:00.080 --> 0:51:03.120
<v Speaker 1>start like you know, like having sexual relations with older

0:51:03.239 --> 0:51:06.000
<v Speaker 1>kids or like closet and like I never, you know,

0:51:06.160 --> 0:51:07.560
<v Speaker 1>told him that I was gay, But I don't. I

0:51:07.640 --> 0:51:09.440
<v Speaker 1>don't even remember, like what I had to lie about

0:51:09.640 --> 0:51:12.520
<v Speaker 1>to like tell them what my trauma was. That's that's

0:51:12.600 --> 0:51:14.680
<v Speaker 1>when you that's when the stories came out. Like the

0:51:14.800 --> 0:51:17.200
<v Speaker 1>kid I was, we never had to do any of

0:51:17.239 --> 0:51:19.279
<v Speaker 1>that ship, but that would have been my moment to

0:51:19.400 --> 0:51:27.120
<v Speaker 1>tell the most detailed, outrageous, unbelievable lie that I was,

0:51:27.280 --> 0:51:31.400
<v Speaker 1>like so sure I was getting away with when everyone

0:51:31.520 --> 0:51:34.720
<v Speaker 1>must have been like that kid's like he's her knees

0:51:35.239 --> 0:51:37.719
<v Speaker 1>lying his head. Didn't even need to lie, you could

0:51:37.760 --> 0:51:40.040
<v Speaker 1>just tell them like one. So from there.

0:51:40.400 --> 0:51:42.600
<v Speaker 2>But I loved lying. When I was a kid, I

0:51:42.760 --> 0:51:44.880
<v Speaker 2>loved lying and I thought I was so good. I

0:51:44.880 --> 0:51:49.720
<v Speaker 2>mean always I was, but I always added too much detail.

0:51:50.440 --> 0:51:52.440
<v Speaker 2>But you know, the thing is kids are stupid, so

0:51:52.600 --> 0:51:54.880
<v Speaker 2>they'll believe that too much detail. That's true, But the

0:51:54.920 --> 0:51:58.480
<v Speaker 2>count and they knew what was up, and I was

0:51:58.680 --> 0:52:03.760
<v Speaker 2>such I okay. So I always wanted to be friends

0:52:03.920 --> 0:52:07.719
<v Speaker 2>with both the older campers and the counselors. And I

0:52:08.520 --> 0:52:13.360
<v Speaker 2>still cringe thinking about trying to make counselors like me

0:52:13.480 --> 0:52:16.839
<v Speaker 2>and just what a loser I was, And Sphoebe said,

0:52:16.920 --> 0:52:19.160
<v Speaker 2>this is why I have a podcast now, why Like

0:52:19.239 --> 0:52:21.239
<v Speaker 2>because I was like a lying.

0:52:21.160 --> 0:52:27.360
<v Speaker 1>Loser making up stories. Wow, summer Camp is really dramatic.

0:52:28.200 --> 0:52:28.400
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:52:28.520 --> 0:52:32.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm I'm like glad that I went. I don't know, well,

0:52:32.600 --> 0:52:35.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm not planning on having children. I don't know that

0:52:35.400 --> 0:52:38.080
<v Speaker 2>I would send them to sleep Boy Camp if I

0:52:38.160 --> 0:52:39.600
<v Speaker 2>were to have children.

0:52:39.360 --> 0:52:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Because.

0:52:41.520 --> 0:52:45.520
<v Speaker 2>Like I get needing the time off from being a parent,

0:52:45.719 --> 0:52:48.680
<v Speaker 2>but also like you signed up.

0:52:48.680 --> 0:52:51.320
<v Speaker 1>For this, so it would depend on my partner. But

0:52:51.480 --> 0:52:54.680
<v Speaker 1>if I have kids, they're going to boarding school. Yeah,

0:52:54.680 --> 0:52:57.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean not boarding school. I wouldn't be that cruel,

0:52:57.120 --> 0:52:59.640
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, I need a break, Like I don't want

0:52:59.680 --> 0:53:03.240
<v Speaker 1>to see you for months at a time one hundred

0:53:03.280 --> 0:53:05.879
<v Speaker 1>and ten percent otherwise like what am I going to do? Yeah?

0:53:05.960 --> 0:53:08.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean I feel like when my when my nephew

0:53:08.960 --> 0:53:12.440
<v Speaker 2>is like a teenager and my brother and sister in

0:53:12.560 --> 0:53:14.040
<v Speaker 2>law want to send him to camp, I'll be like,

0:53:14.360 --> 0:53:16.279
<v Speaker 2>send him to York. He can stay with me for

0:53:16.360 --> 0:53:19.239
<v Speaker 2>a couple of months and like have a you know,

0:53:19.400 --> 0:53:21.880
<v Speaker 2>an experience. I think that would be but you know,

0:53:22.200 --> 0:53:24.320
<v Speaker 2>they probably want to hang out with kids want to

0:53:24.400 --> 0:53:26.880
<v Speaker 2>hang out with other kids weirdly enough, so he probably

0:53:26.920 --> 0:53:27.520
<v Speaker 2>would rather.

0:53:27.760 --> 0:53:30.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know, I just like, I know

0:53:30.520 --> 0:53:32.840
<v Speaker 1>not every kid is like this, but like I craved

0:53:33.440 --> 0:53:36.719
<v Speaker 1>time away from my parents, and you do the most

0:53:36.840 --> 0:53:40.839
<v Speaker 1>growing up when you leave home, leave your parents, find

0:53:40.880 --> 0:53:43.640
