That's it. I'm glad you corrected me. 0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:19.000 I do that with Charlie's Throne all the time, who's 0:02:19.000 --> 0:02:21.200 a very close friend of mine, and she gives me 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:24.040 shit about mispronouncing her name all the time, first or last. 0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:26.240 I mean, they're both ex that's and I told her, 0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:28.079 I go, I don't even think you're pronouncing it right. 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:29.640 You know what I mean. That's how I feel about 0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:34.639 Australian accents. They exactly. That's how I feel about Australians. 0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:39.760 Where are we nerve? Yeah, Nai, I was trying to 0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.440 get that Australian knife for a long time because I 0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:45.200 was doing this imitation of an Australian pilot in my 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:47.440 stand up, and then I had to toss it because 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:52.680 I couldn't get the name because it's like night nine A. 0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:56.040 You are as how the youths are spelling it on 0:02:56.680 --> 0:03:00.600 the internet is that it's rough. Like my voice is 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:03.280 so great, So well, yeah, I like your voice. It's soothing. 0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:05.640 You should do one of those meditation apps. Oh, I'd 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:09.560 love it, just for Jews only. The last time I 0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:11.320 saw you, we were at my show in the Beacon. 0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:14.120 You came so kindly. I loved seeing you. I was 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:17.519 just lit and so empowering. Of course, I missed the 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:20.799 night before, Sarah Silverman and Amy Schumer and Sarah Cooper. 0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:24.240 You had a damn lineup girl. Oh yeah, that was fun. 0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:26.120 We were all on. The person we were missing was you, 0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:28.880 but you were sick and you were being responsible because 0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:31.639 it was one of those every time we get six sick, 0:03:31.680 --> 0:03:33.720 it's a COVID scare thing, so we have to be 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:35.600 even just a little flair. I was thinking about an 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:38.680 awesome fiftieth birthday party that I missed recently because I 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.240 was like a little rundown, and I was like, fuck, 0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:44.480 but you gotta do it. It's always been gross to 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:47.720 show up somewhere a little sick, but now it's disgusting. 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:51.000 Now it is disgusting and wrong. And we were together 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:54.240 on that night. We went out to dinner with Matteo 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:57.880 Lane and yeah, I was on my thirty day alcohol light, 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:00.000 so I got to break my thirty day alcohol light 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.840 with a Lana Glazer and I had an Apperall sprits 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:06.600 who knew that sentence would ever come out of my mouth? Hey, 0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:08.400 that I was on an alcohol clens and b that 0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:11.200 I broke it with an Apperall sprits so funny, I mean, 0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:15.120 not basically like a soccer mom at this point a 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:18.240 mother though at this point, Yeah, I am a what 0:04:18.360 --> 0:04:20.640 is what are you in the city is a walk 0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:25.400 up mom? Just stairs and stars and stares. I'm just like, 0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:28.479 how long can this last? I don't know, Chelsea h Job, 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:31.320 I don't know. The good thing is that, like, as 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:34.760 long as my form is good, life is a hardcore 0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:38.240 workout in New York City with a baby. So I'm 0:04:38.279 --> 0:04:41.400 feeling fit and strong, but I'm also like, it's just 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:44.360 insane here. It's just insane. I'm looking but I've been 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:50.320 here sixteen years and uh what a crazy It's just changed. 0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:53.840 The city is so insane and it's like the microcosm 0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:56.760 of everything insanity. Do you think it's wearing you thin? 0:04:56.960 --> 0:04:59.360 Are you saying that you love it? How are you feeling? 0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:01.320 I mean if I love it and I hate it, 0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:03.800 I mean like I love it, but I'm also just 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:07.039 like what you know? The high rises. The rats are 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:11.680 are full citizens in New York. It's it's bunkers in 0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:13.760 l A. They're crazy. There are rats in l A. 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:17.960 And they are possums. Yeah, they're large. That is scary 0:05:18.120 --> 0:05:20.640 ship they are. I was staying in l A for 0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:23.240 like five months last year, and whenever I'm in l A, 0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:27.440 I'm haunted by ghosts. I have like environmental issues and 0:05:28.040 --> 0:05:31.440 animal issues, and something always is like happening. And the 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:35.359 rats were like full woodworking in the walls of the 0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:38.919 places I was staying. Oh my god, it was building furniture. 0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:44.360 It was insane. So staying at a hostel. I was 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:47.960 staying at a totally lovely house in Laurel Canyon, but 0:05:48.040 --> 0:05:50.920 they were like, oh yeah, Laurel Canyon, the nicest place. Yeah, 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:53.360 infested with rats. I was like, this place is I mean, 0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:56.040 l A is so itself and its contradictions, but in 0:05:56.080 --> 0:06:00.080 New York they're smaller and more cerebral. At least we 0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:02.560 rolled that's a good way to put it. Yeah, Yeah, 0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:04.560 Joe and I went to this morning. We're doing this 0:06:04.600 --> 0:06:06.080 out of New York City today. Joe and I went 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:07.839 to because he had to get his tc A renewed 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:11.400 t s A to move quicker at the airport. He 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:13.960 didn't get his renewed so you could get pre check 0:06:14.040 --> 0:06:16.160 or whatever it is t s A, pre check, t 0:06:16.320 --> 0:06:19.360 c A or the Critics Choice Association. So that's exactly 0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:21.680 what I was talking about. Anyway, we had to go 0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:23.920 there and get that done. And we went in. Well, 0:06:23.960 --> 0:06:26.120 we had an appointment, but it was in the bronx, 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:27.920 and I said, let's just walk in. We walk in, 0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:32.240 walk it some walk like a walk into some post 0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:34.880 office around the corner. We walk in, we put his 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:37.680 name in, and then we go to check and see 0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:39.040 how long it is, and they say it's going to 0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:41.159 be two hours. And we were waiting in the room 0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:44.040 and the woman's like, okay, well you can't wait inside 0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:45.839 if you're a walking and like we had been waiting 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:47.560 for thirty minutes. I go, but we've been here the 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.320 whole time, and she goes, yeah, but no appointments only 0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:52.000 are allowed to wait inside. And we were masked up obviously, 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:53.960 and I said, okay, so we have to now go 0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:56.560 outside because I asked you how long it was, and 0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:59.520 she goes yes, So we leave, we go get we 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:01.560 go get Head of Cures together, one of my favorite 0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:04.440 activities to do with my boyfriend. And we came back 0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:09.240 and she's like, okay, appointments have been canceled. I was like, 0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:12.800 what the fucking kind of customer service is this? Oh 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:16.520 my god. It's like not that I ever have intellectual references, 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:18.880 but it's like Edward I'll be play, you know, like 0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:21.320 waiting for good Dough and no Exit. It's the two 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:23.320 references I have from college. I don't know ship, but 0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.200 it's just like you're in a loop and it's like 0:07:25.240 --> 0:07:29.200 an absurdist play. And that's what bureaucracy in New yarpe. Yeah, 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:31.320 and the logic behind it. It's like these people have 0:07:31.360 --> 0:07:33.200 an appointment, so they can wait in the waiting room, 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:36.080 but you can't because you're a walking appointment. It's like, okay, 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:40.080 little Dr Susie. Yeah, the logic is like really anyway, Okay, 0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:42.040 can I say two things T T C A S. 0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:44.280 You just want a critics word for evolution, right, I 0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:47.160 thank you. No, I won one for Best Comedy to 0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:51.480 our People's Choice Award. Yeah, but same thing, right, Well 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:53.600 the people, I mean that's that's even better no offense 0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:56.119 than the critics. Well for me, and it's all about 0:07:56.120 --> 0:07:58.640 the people. Yeah. I can't be performing for critics. We 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:02.120 know that. You know that, right, Yeah, but congratulations, thank you, honey, 0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:04.800 thank you. All of your winds is so inspiring. I 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:06.960 love them. Well, I feel the same way about you, 0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:09.440 speaking of which, it was a little much I think 0:08:09.440 --> 0:08:12.960 to Joe. That was like Joe Joe Coy, Like, I'm 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:16.000 just so excited about your guys love and nothing's too 0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:18.160 much for him. He is the king of enthusiasm. So 0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:21.040 don't even ever get it twisted. I want to talk 0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:24.360 more specifically about your movie False Positive Love It, So 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:26.080 let's talk a little bit about that and why that 0:08:26.160 --> 0:08:27.760 was important for you to make, because I know that 0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:29.560 was close to your heart, right, Yeah, I mean that 0:08:29.640 --> 0:08:31.800 was like a I can't even believe it got made. 0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:34.839 It was such a like fucked up passion project from 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:37.880 like my core. So I'm actually I'm stoked about it 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:39.360 and I'm star if you want to talk about it. Yeah, 0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:42.040 So you were involved obviously in the creative process from 0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:45.200 the outset. Yeah. I I wrote that with my writing 0:08:45.240 --> 0:08:48.320 partner for that film, John Lee, So we wrote that 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:51.120 script and then I started it and he directed it. 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:53.600 So it was like similar to Broad City in that 0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:57.320 it was like something that I saw from conception to birth, 0:08:57.600 --> 0:09:00.360 no pun intended, because it's all about birth and seating. 0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:05.320 So yeah, it's a very white punk and satirical and 0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:09.440 weird and unique. And what were the most important themes, 0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:11.440 like when you were very passionate how First of all, 0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:12.960 how long did it take you from the start of 0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:18.560 conceptualizing it to actually executing it? Gosh, what year is it? 0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:21.800 My brain is so broken Instagram? Well you have money brain. 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:24.320 Now you can blame that and COVID and New York. 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:27.800 Today I blame Instagram. Actually, um, I just played Instagram. 0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:30.920 My brain is leaking out my ears. Every time I 0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:33.800 open Instagram. It's just brain diarrhea out of my ears. 0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:36.520 What about when you mindlessly go on TikTok and then 0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:39.560 it plays it at full volume even when you have 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:42.480 it down on Instagram. If you go on TikTok, everyone 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:48.160 around you know that you're on TikTok a TikTok. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:50.080 I make them once in a while, but I don't 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:52.920 have like a social media person. I have a coordinator 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.200 and producer who helps me, but it's not like I, 0:09:55.240 --> 0:09:57.360 like have a dedicated social media person. If I did. 0:09:57.679 --> 0:10:00.000 They're fun, you know, it's fun to make little things 0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:02.720 and it's a fun creative outlet. But like, I can 0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:04.960 barely handle it on my own, so I make just 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:07.880 stupid ones randomly. I'm not I haven't invested a whole 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:09.920 thing in any Yeah, I have a social media team 0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:12.600 because I can't be I can't I feel that that 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:14.920 way about you. I need somebody to get excited for me, 0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:17.360 and then I can produce the content. I'm not even 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:20.360 produce it. I can show up and record it. That's 0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:23.240 like somewhere I want to get too is just have 0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:25.720 that because it's fun and it does reach people. You know, 0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:27.560 it feels good as a fan to like see your 0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:30.520 stuff and be like, hey, Chelsea, you know I want 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:33.559 to get there, but yeah, my ship's leaking out my ears. 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:35.760 So the question was how long did it take you 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:38.760 from the inception a false positive to actually seeing it 0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:41.680 come to fruition. I would say five years from starting 0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:44.840 to talk about it with John Lee to three years 0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:47.880 from writing it to the point of putting it out. 0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:52.160 And it's about the power structures that run the world 0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:56.080 and how they fuck over women, and that happens in medicine. 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:59.559 That happens, of course on a spectrum from black to 0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:03.800 Asian to white too queer. You know, there's this algorithm 0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:07.320 in the power structures that box people over to different degrees. 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:10.400 So it's about this white woman in New York City 0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:12.640 who's trying to get pregnant in her husband are trying 0:11:12.640 --> 0:11:17.599 to get pregnant, and the medical system, specifically the reproductive 0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:20.439 medical system fox here over in a scary way that 0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:23.679 truly happens. Because the movie is out, I'm going to 0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:26.760 tell you about it. There is a phenomenon that is 0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:33.360 pretty rampant and increasingly being exposed where some fertility doctors 0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:38.800 put their own sperm in their unwitting patients. And because 0:11:39.320 --> 0:11:42.120 es Catherine, thank you for that look, I'm like horrified 0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:46.600 over here. Yes, because of the way the world works 0:11:46.920 --> 0:11:52.520 is that the policymakers protect people, and if the policymakers 0:11:52.559 --> 0:11:54.920 all look like Mitch McConnell, the only people protected or 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:59.080 Mitch McConnell. So it's technically legal. So some lawsuits have 0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:02.240 happened or but it's been for other ship they have 0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:06.440 to name it as another thing. There's so little research 0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:10.480 about women and reproductive health, and they're so little legal 0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:14.000 protection obviously, so it's like a horror movie that's like 0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:17.000 a satire about like the whiteness and the New York nous. 0:12:17.200 --> 0:12:20.080 And here in New York we think we're so progressive, 0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:24.000 but damn are we pretty backwards in a lot of ways, 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:27.959 you know, like income disparity alone tells you how backwards 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:30.640 a places. And you know, there's the richest people here 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.439 in the poorest people here. So New York can be 0:12:33.480 --> 0:12:37.240 whacked in that way too. So it's a pretty amazing cast. 0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:40.680 Pierce Brosnan is our villain. He's Pierce Prosden is awesome 0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:43.040 in this movie. First of all, I love Pierce Brosen. 0:12:43.480 --> 0:12:47.760 Isn't he just the sexiest man alive? Every year? Piers 0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:50.360 Brasson is the sexiest man alive, and he always has 0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:52.840 been and always has been because like the reason that 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:56.559 he remains Pierce Prosdon is because he is a gentleman, 0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:01.040 like giggling and blushing, a gentleman and an artists and 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:04.160 just a cool dude. He's like gone through a bunch 0:13:04.200 --> 0:13:08.520 of ships, survived it with immediately visible elegance, and is 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:12.040 just awesome to work with. He is awesome to work with. 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:14.720 Oh my gosh, I'm going to tell you this this story. 0:13:14.800 --> 0:13:18.640 So there's this shot, Oh my goodness, I am giggling 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:21.320 and blushing. There's this thing, I have a mask like 0:13:21.360 --> 0:13:25.120 any other school a crushed girls. There's this shot in 0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:27.959 the film where I'm like, it's this real like stylist 0:13:28.000 --> 0:13:31.600 shot and I'm covered in blood, buck naked, and I 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:34.040 look at myself in the mirror clothed and buck naked 0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:36.920 and clothed and naked. And I talked to Pearce on 0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:38.960 the phone to like talk about getting him to do 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:40.600 the movie and talking about the movie or whatever. But 0:13:40.679 --> 0:13:42.280 the first time that I met him in person was 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:47.520 covered in blood, fully naked. Oh on set, Yes, I 0:13:47.600 --> 0:13:50.600 was like, bring him in, and that's how I met him. 0:13:51.600 --> 0:13:53.160 I was like, I think this will be the this 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.280 is the closest I'll ever get, So here you go. 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:57.520 I was just done. I was like, this is this 0:13:57.559 --> 0:13:59.680 is me? I was. I was covered in fake blood, 0:13:59.679 --> 0:14:02.600 which is almost like Cherry Sarah. So it was a 0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:06.079 little demure and probably very erotic for him. I hope. 0:14:06.320 --> 0:14:08.520 I mean that's all we can do, is hope. Now, 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:11.280 when you sold this movie based on the subject matter 0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:13.280 and everything, was that difficult to sell or did you 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:17.079 just sell it's on Hulu? Right? Yeah? We went straight too, 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:20.080 and they dug it. They're like pretty, they're keen, right, 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:22.320 So they dug it and they were like, okay, let's 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:24.840 do this, and we we shaped the story with them 0:14:24.880 --> 0:14:28.680 too too. It became that style. We we always were 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:32.360 aiming at that kind of satire and the tone that 0:14:32.440 --> 0:14:35.160 it evokes. Their great producers, they helped us like shape it, 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:37.240 shape this world. And what has it and what has 0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:39.200 the feedback been. Have you heard from a lot of 0:14:39.200 --> 0:14:43.560 different women now about watching that movie and their own experiences? Yes, 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:46.600 it is really eerie. How many people, like even just 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:49.880 in talking about the movie, how they have had similar 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:52.240 experiences discovered that this has happened to them. So many 0:14:52.240 --> 0:14:54.040 people have told me that this has happened to them. 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:56.120 If that's who their father is, is there a doctor 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:59.600 riffs with their mothers who didn't tell them? I think 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:01.880 I am a to The mothers are like found in 0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:04.200 a way where they're like, did I do this? I 0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:06.440 kind of knew it afterwards. I kind of put the 0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:10.080 pieces together, you know. It's it's so so doctors opting 0:15:10.120 --> 0:15:13.000 to forego the semen that they've been supplied with and 0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:16.840 instead inseminate their own semen into their own patients. So 0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:19.680 this is a thing that is happening. Yes. Is it 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:22.920 because they like ran out of college student semen or 0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:26.520 they're just like monsters? It's because their monster? Yeah, since 0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:28.480 when does a man, help when you run out of something, 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:39.280 no college and it's free. So no, it's because they're monsters. 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:42.240 And I guess the people in this position tend to 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:45.640 be white males, but I can't help. But it feels 0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:48.640 connected to white supremacy to They're like, believe me, my 0:15:48.760 --> 0:15:52.320 sperm is primo. It's like, I don't think so, bro, 0:15:52.880 --> 0:15:55.200 I don't think so. I think the hardest thing for 0:15:55.240 --> 0:15:57.000 a lot of people to get around. And I'm sure 0:15:57.000 --> 0:15:58.880 all of our listeners are on the same page because 0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:00.960 we have such a loyal fan base, and I think 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:02.800 the hardest thing to get around. It's like whenever I 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:06.440 mentioned anything, like everything to me is goes right back 0:16:06.480 --> 0:16:11.000 to white supremacy, Like everything in society, even regular, common 0:16:11.080 --> 0:16:13.720 everyday things that happened. You're like, oh, there's white supremacy 0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:15.720 at work. And Joe is always like, oh my god, 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:17.960 oh my god. I'm like, you are a victim of 0:16:17.960 --> 0:16:20.840 white supremacy, so you should actually be even more tuned 0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:23.120 to this. The thing is as white people, like the 0:16:23.160 --> 0:16:26.000 wool has been pulled over our eyes the most because 0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:28.720 we're the ones meant to uphold the whole system. So 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:31.680 I find that like, as a white person, and as 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:34.560 a white woman, it's like I'm like working on this 0:16:34.600 --> 0:16:36.960 bit of like I can't unsee the patriarchy. I see 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:39.320 it everywhere. I see it in you know, utensils and 0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:41.080 tips and the way people. You know, it's like it 0:16:41.240 --> 0:16:44.680 is everywhere. But it's because we haven't been thrust upon 0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:47.360 the system hasn't been thrust upon us in a particular 0:16:47.400 --> 0:16:51.040 way to see it as kids, you know what I mean. Like, um, 0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:54.760 there's this awesome New York representative cho say in Brooklyn, 0:16:54.800 --> 0:17:00.520 whose third generation Brooklyn and he's like twenty three. He is, uh, amazing. 0:17:00.720 --> 0:17:04.080 This young person is filled with light, totally sees the 0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:07.000 whole system and how to navigate through it. Is a politician, 0:17:07.080 --> 0:17:11.560 he's he's he's amazing, an activist term politician. And I 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:15.040 was like, Mr, Oh, say, how do you see the 0:17:15.040 --> 0:17:17.719 whole system this way? And he was like, it's because 0:17:17.760 --> 0:17:20.439 I'm black, Because at a young age I knew as 0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:22.440 a black person in a black family in a black 0:17:22.440 --> 0:17:25.560 community what the system was doing, you know. But for 0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:29.639 us to be like way and then and then it 0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:34.439 comes later now it's like I feel a delayed response 0:17:34.560 --> 0:17:38.320 where it started when I left home. Basically Smithtown. Phille 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:41.000 lives in the town that I grew up in. Oh cute, 0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:44.840 which is a cute connection. I mean a real as 0:17:44.960 --> 0:17:49.040 authentic connection behind the scenes here at Chelsea hand Job, 0:17:51.320 --> 0:17:53.560 you know. But you come up against it everywhere, and 0:17:54.040 --> 0:17:56.840 we do need to be reminding ourselves or else it's 0:17:56.880 --> 0:18:01.080 harder to stay like fucking wilful against it. Yeah, yeah, especially, 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:03.680 I mean it is hard because it becomes such as 0:18:03.720 --> 0:18:05.960 feel it feels like you're always arguing, you know, like 0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:08.919 you're always cantankerous, and you are arguing, and it's like 0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:12.200 and it's a necessary argument. To be constantly reminding. It's 0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:15.159 a bummer, But it's also necessary to be constantly reminding 0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:17.479 yourself and others around you to look and see like 0:18:17.560 --> 0:18:20.640 through this, through this lens of like the real reality 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:22.600 of things, even growing up. You know, when I look 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:25.840 back at the way how bombastic and arrogant I was 0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:27.960 at a young age, everyone just thought I had so 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:30.560 much confidence and I was so fearless. It was like, no, 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:32.960 I just had grown up in a structure where I 0:18:33.000 --> 0:18:35.240 knew I could be the loudest and there was we 0:18:35.400 --> 0:18:37.560 were going to be no repercussions. Did you grow up 0:18:37.560 --> 0:18:41.560 with Jews. Yeah, Jews and Italians, which are basically interchangeable, 0:18:41.880 --> 0:18:47.199 but it was very Jewish, very Italian where which they 0:18:47.200 --> 0:18:50.679 called Bagel Hill for short. On that note, we have 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:53.000 this podcast is where we give advice. We have real 0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:55.080 people who call in and we're just going to give 0:18:55.080 --> 0:18:57.280 our advice and hopefully these are areas that you feel 0:18:57.280 --> 0:19:00.760 comfortable giving advice in which I know you will. And um, yeah, 0:19:00.840 --> 0:19:04.240 so Katherine, should we start with our callers. Yes, we'll 0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:06.400 have to take a quick break, but after that we'll 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:08.240 get to some collars. Oh, yes, we always have to 0:19:08.240 --> 0:19:15.520 take a quick break. Don't forget about that. Okay, and 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:17.879 we're back. We're back with a lot of glazer and 0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:21.000 we're going to take some callers, right, Katherine, Yes, we are. 0:19:21.000 --> 0:19:24.199 Our first submission is actually an email. We actually have 0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:28.720 two collars today, so our first email comes from Natalie. 0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:34.240 The subject is secret job. Dear Chelsea. I'm a forty 0:19:34.280 --> 0:19:37.639 six year old woman who has a great husband, two amazing, smart, 0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:40.399 well rounded kids, and I live a quiet, content life. 0:19:41.000 --> 0:19:43.359 My problem is, before I had kids, I had a 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:47.400 very active work life, were filled with responsibilities and promise. 0:19:47.800 --> 0:19:49.520 We lived in a large city and I felt like 0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:52.440 I was going places career wise. When our first son 0:19:52.560 --> 0:19:54.879 was born, I never really went back to work because 0:19:54.880 --> 0:19:58.399 my husband's job was very demanding and unpredictable, and we 0:19:58.440 --> 0:20:02.440 had no easy childcare option. Fourteen years and a year 0:20:02.480 --> 0:20:05.240 of COVID later, I realized I wanted to start doing 0:20:05.280 --> 0:20:08.959 something outside of the house. Pre COVID I volunteered, so 0:20:09.000 --> 0:20:11.600 I decided to get a job as a school bus driver. 0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:14.879 Here's the thing, Chelsea, I've been doing it for a 0:20:15.040 --> 0:20:17.919 year and none of my family or friends know I 0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:21.960 have this job. I really enjoy it. I love the kids. 0:20:22.240 --> 0:20:25.120 Driving the bus is never boring, and it's only three 0:20:25.119 --> 0:20:27.440 hours a day. But I've kept it a secret because 0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:29.600 I feel that people will look down on me, like 0:20:29.640 --> 0:20:32.560 I couldn't get anything better, or that I'm lazy. All 0:20:32.600 --> 0:20:35.240 my friends have fast paced city jobs but no kids. 0:20:35.680 --> 0:20:38.199
