0:00:30.080 --> 0:00:34.000
<v Speaker 1>by Cindy Schupack, directed by Charles McDougal. It's a good one.

0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:36.920
<v Speaker 2>My entire team is like freaking out that I'm sitting

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:39.760
<v Speaker 2>here good. Oh sweet.

0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:42.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, the thing that's funny to me is like coming

0:00:42.560 --> 0:00:45.599
<v Speaker 1>from where we came, like you doing a talk show,

0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:47.839
<v Speaker 1>which is a whole different animal, and me doing regular

0:00:47.960 --> 0:00:50.640
<v Speaker 1>film and now we're in podcast world, which is super.

0:00:50.440 --> 0:00:53.519
<v Speaker 2>LOOSEI Udy, are you digging it, by the way, I

0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:54.960
<v Speaker 2>totally dig it in some ways.

0:00:54.960 --> 0:00:57.480
<v Speaker 1>In some ways I'm confused, Like some people just do

0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:00.280
<v Speaker 1>it in their sweat, right, And I'm trying to get there.

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:02.680
<v Speaker 2>But we can't. We can't. We need something.

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:04.640
<v Speaker 1>We need a little something right, Like I still put

0:01:04.640 --> 0:01:05.440
<v Speaker 1>a little makeup on.

0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:07.240
<v Speaker 2>I feel right.

0:01:07.319 --> 0:01:09.399
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we have our comfy shoes on, busy.

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:12.160
<v Speaker 2>I know I'm with you. I do like the vibe

0:01:12.200 --> 0:01:14.760
<v Speaker 2>of it. I love the vibe. I feel like lax.

0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:16.760
<v Speaker 2>And by the way, one of the things that I

0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:20.160
<v Speaker 2>feel like I was missing after leaving the Today Show

0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:27.080
<v Speaker 2>was having beautiful conversations because you know, they were so

0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:31.000
<v Speaker 2>baked into either life or just the makeup room or

0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:34.640
<v Speaker 2>somehow you're having these good convos. But now we get

0:01:34.680 --> 0:01:37.840
<v Speaker 2>to sit be curious about each other. We're allowed as

0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:38.200
<v Speaker 2>long as.

0:01:38.240 --> 0:01:41.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm absolutely that part's amazing. I love I mean, for mine,

0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:44.680
<v Speaker 1>I have the rewatch part, which you know, it's like fun,

0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:46.720
<v Speaker 1>but also sometimes I'm like, oh, I just want to talk.

0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:48.840
<v Speaker 1>But it is also fun because it brings up so

0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:51.640
<v Speaker 1>many like the show has so many interesting topics, right,

0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 1>which is kind of a jumping off point. But the

0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:56.080
<v Speaker 1>thing that's nice for me because I'm a single mom,

0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:58.880
<v Speaker 1>I like you, of two children, I don't have this

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:01.800
<v Speaker 1>time to see my friends and talked to people. Yes,

0:02:01.960 --> 0:02:05.160
<v Speaker 1>so it gives you that in your life, this is interesting.

0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:09.480
<v Speaker 2>I just Marias River posted something and it said life

0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 2>in the nineteen twenties and it went through ticking each

0:02:13.120 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 2>year and it had categories friends and family, housework, hobbies,

0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:22.360
<v Speaker 2>blah blah. And then it showed TV kicked in whatever

0:02:22.480 --> 0:02:24.640
<v Speaker 2>in the fifties. Who knows when that happened, So then

0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:26.480
<v Speaker 2>it was like TV. Then you see the shifts of

0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:31.520
<v Speaker 2>the categories. But what happened over time was friendships that

0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:37.720
<v Speaker 2>were huge dropped so far down because when we see

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 2>someone on Instagram, we're like, oh, we saw they had

0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:42.440
<v Speaker 2>a great vacation. I'll catch up with them, And then

0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:44.919
<v Speaker 2>when you see them, it's almost like second reference. How

0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:47.280
<v Speaker 2>was that? And you're like, I already saw the pictures,

0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:49.640
<v Speaker 2>but how was it? It was fun, true, but anyway,

0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:54.840
<v Speaker 2>it reminded me that friendships connection that gets buried because

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:59.399
<v Speaker 2>everything else, even like streaming Netflix, everything was so high,

0:02:59.480 --> 0:03:04.160
<v Speaker 2>Instagram TikTok so high, but sitting face to face was

0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:05.520
<v Speaker 2>near the bottom.

0:03:05.760 --> 0:03:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I know, it's so so nice that we found a

0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:13.000
<v Speaker 1>job that we can sit and chat and actually have

0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:15.600
<v Speaker 1>a good conversation where you're not trying to get necessarily

0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:19.000
<v Speaker 1>sound bites or whatever you would normally be doing in

0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:21.280
<v Speaker 1>your job. Right, I know it isn't nice.

0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:22.240
<v Speaker 2>I also feel like it.

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Is the wild wild West, Like you're here in New

0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:27.600
<v Speaker 1>York on our same floor. You guys are our studios

0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:30.000
<v Speaker 1>are now next to each other. Studio is also kind

0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>of a loose term. But when I first came to

0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:35.600
<v Speaker 1>this floor in New York for the iHeart Building, the

0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:38.840
<v Speaker 1>whole floor looked as though like a natural disaster it happened,

0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:40.839
<v Speaker 1>and everyone just got it from their desks and ran out.

0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Did you see now they've cleaned the desks for you, Hoda,

0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:43.720
<v Speaker 1>I may.

0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:45.280
<v Speaker 2>Need to know that. I think I might have missed

0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:45.800
<v Speaker 2>that window.

0:03:46.200 --> 0:03:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I was like, ooh, snacks, I know they have. That's

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:52.440
<v Speaker 1>for you. It's snacks for you.

0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 2>It's now very nice.

0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>There's now two dressing rooms and two studios.

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:56.920
<v Speaker 2>And then some one.

0:03:56.800 --> 0:03:58.360
<v Speaker 1>Time I was here and there were three people and

0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:00.360
<v Speaker 1>I was like wow, because when I came, I was

0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 1>the first one up here, or at least that I know.

0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:04.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, probably when I wasn't here. I'm not

0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:07.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm usually in a late as you know. But it

0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:09.680
<v Speaker 1>was like everyone's like, get out of the building and

0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:12.720
<v Speaker 1>they just left all their stuff like it was crazy.

0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:15.720
<v Speaker 1>But here we are on the forethront of this crazy

0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>podcast world. It's really interesting, but welcome.

0:04:19.520 --> 0:04:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Thank you. I'm happy with you.

0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:23.159
<v Speaker 1>I was so glad you because I.

0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 2>Feel like the longest conversations you and I have ever

0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:28.400
<v Speaker 2>had are four minutes, I know, which is today show

0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:31.040
<v Speaker 2>is in and out. We pack a lot in.

0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:33.080
<v Speaker 1>It's true, but also there was like the commercial, you

0:04:33.120 --> 0:04:35.440
<v Speaker 1>always feel like you and then there's seeing you in

0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:38.040
<v Speaker 1>the durssing room seeing you know, so you feel, and

0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:40.440
<v Speaker 1>then also over time which is nice, and then I

0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:42.920
<v Speaker 1>would see you in New York sometimes, which is nice, right,

0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:45.839
<v Speaker 1>But I agree, it's nice to have a format where

0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:48.479
<v Speaker 1>you can actually go in depth, yes, and where that's

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:51.640
<v Speaker 1>actually applauded, you know, And also you can just go

0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:54.239
<v Speaker 1>wherever you feel like going, I mean, especially on yours,

0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:55.200
<v Speaker 1>because you don't have.

0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:57.240
<v Speaker 2>I love by the way, I love it so much.

0:04:57.240 --> 0:04:59.320
<v Speaker 2>I feel like everyone's like, no one has an attention span,

0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:03.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, eight seconds on TikTok. I'm like, yeah, And

0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:08.839
<v Speaker 2>people like to sit and listen to a good conversation.

0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:11.560
<v Speaker 2>As long as it's good, they'll sit and listen. I

0:05:11.600 --> 0:05:13.040
<v Speaker 2>will too. I'm the same. I feel like I don't

0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:16.000
<v Speaker 2>have time, but when I'll stop in my tracks when

0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:17.920
<v Speaker 2>I hear a great convo. That's true.

0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:20.400
<v Speaker 1>But also the great thing about podcasts you don't have

0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:23.120
<v Speaker 1>to stop like I do. The laundry and listen to

0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:25.599
<v Speaker 1>my podcast. I drive and listen to my podcast. I'm

0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:27.920
<v Speaker 1>not into the watching yet. I understand there are people

0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:29.400
<v Speaker 1>who are into watching those people.

0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:30.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm with you audio.

0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:32.760
<v Speaker 1>With the new video or videos, the new audio or whatever.

0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:33.640
<v Speaker 2>But I listen.

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:36.440
<v Speaker 1>But you can listen and function. But yet your brain

0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:39.560
<v Speaker 1>is engaged in a way, or you're not so bored.

0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:42.240
<v Speaker 2>Your chores, you know. I love that too.

0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:44.160
<v Speaker 1>And also driving if you get stuck, because I'm in

0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:46.680
<v Speaker 1>La right, you might get stuck having to go somewhere far.

0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.480
<v Speaker 2>I know, and why not. I mean, look, I feel

0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:51.400
<v Speaker 2>like you get to live one life and I get

0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:54.560
<v Speaker 2>to live one life, and the only time we get

0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:57.680
<v Speaker 2>to see beyond that is when we are listening to

0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:01.200
<v Speaker 2>someone else's life experiences and to be able to go, well,

0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:03.159
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that I'll ever live that. But I

0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:06.000
<v Speaker 2>just learned a lesson that Kristen learned, or I just

0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:10.560
<v Speaker 2>figured out something, or I like how this person described

0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 2>how they started their day and I kind of dig that,

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:15.440
<v Speaker 2>like I'm going to try that tomorrow, or just things

0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:17.960
<v Speaker 2>that you can take I feel like. And then I'm

0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 2>someone who's always blabbing, I'm like, oh my god, guess

0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:23.160
<v Speaker 2>what I heard, like as if I had invented whatever.

0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:25.840
<v Speaker 1>The jewel was. That's great though, So wait, just tell

0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:28.680
<v Speaker 1>our listeners because we're obviously we're over here in my world.

0:06:28.720 --> 0:06:30.719
<v Speaker 1>Now we're going to go to your world. Lift, tell

0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:32.960
<v Speaker 1>our listeners a little bit about Joy one on one.

0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:35.839
<v Speaker 2>So Joy one on one is a company that I

0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:40.200
<v Speaker 2>founded a year and change ago, Okay, right after I

0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:43.520
<v Speaker 2>left the Today Show, which was kind of a big, huge,

0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:47.680
<v Speaker 2>huge step for me. Yeah, and also a step that

0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:51.440
<v Speaker 2>was exactly right for me. And the way I know

0:06:51.680 --> 0:06:53.800
<v Speaker 2>when I've made a right decision in my life is

0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:58.159
<v Speaker 2>if I can sleep. If I can sleep, then I

0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:01.040
<v Speaker 2>know I've made the right decision, matter how difficult the

0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:04.680
<v Speaker 2>decision is. And I'm a person that once I make

0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:10.120
<v Speaker 2>the decision, it's done. I've in any job I've ever

0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:13.400
<v Speaker 2>been in, I've never gone, oh, let me see what's

0:07:13.400 --> 0:07:15.280
<v Speaker 2>happening back there so I can figure out if I

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:18.120
<v Speaker 2>should have stayed on that train or on this train. No,

0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:22.080
<v Speaker 2>because I think you almost have to decide I agree

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.960
<v Speaker 2>and go straight before you have to make it work. Yeah,

0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 2>you choose, And I feel like life is a series

0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:32.320
<v Speaker 2>of choices. So I also knew when I was leaving

0:07:32.320 --> 0:07:35.000
<v Speaker 2>the Today Show that there was something else that I

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:37.960
<v Speaker 2>wanted to do. And I think, once you know something

0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:42.040
<v Speaker 2>that's been bubbling up, and for me, wellness was Wellness

0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 2>is such a buzzword and everyone's in it or talking

0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:46.000
<v Speaker 2>about It's almost like you yawn, You're like and a

0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:49.160
<v Speaker 2>wellness company. And I was like, oh, good, good for you.

0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:52.840
<v Speaker 2>But this, to me is more than that because the

0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:55.320
<v Speaker 2>thing I loved about the Today Show the most was

0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:59.000
<v Speaker 2>the joy piece, Like I felt like it was a

0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:03.600
<v Speaker 2>place where you could find it, find joy, bring joy,

0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:06.640
<v Speaker 2>and joy comes in. There's joy in sports, there's joy

0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:09.880
<v Speaker 2>in music, there's joy and meditation, there's joy in all

0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:13.440
<v Speaker 2>these different parts of you. So I said to myself,

0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:16.400
<v Speaker 2>I have one, you know, I get one ride around

0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:20.440
<v Speaker 2>the sun. That's it. So what do I want to do?

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:24.720
<v Speaker 2>I want to fill people's cup. Like I don't look,

0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:28.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't care about how much something makes. I couldn't

0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:33.000
<v Speaker 2>give a rip. What I really want to do is

0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:36.280
<v Speaker 2>leave this Whenever I leave this earth, I want it

0:08:36.360 --> 0:08:39.360
<v Speaker 2>to be like, Wow, they gave back, they helped out,

0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:42.959
<v Speaker 2>they did something, they made someone feel better, because otherwise,

0:08:43.080 --> 0:08:47.720
<v Speaker 2>what's the point. Honest to God, like, what are we doing?

0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:51.840
<v Speaker 2>And so I so I said, let's start a company

0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:54.559
<v Speaker 2>called Joy one oh one that has all these facets

0:08:54.600 --> 0:08:57.760
<v Speaker 2>to it. It's a place where people can go on

0:08:57.800 --> 0:09:01.840
<v Speaker 2>beautiful retreats and feel totally try transformed. Not like where

0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:03.640
<v Speaker 2>you get a goodie bag and feel like you had

0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:07.200
<v Speaker 2>a massage and heard someone great speak that was amazing,

0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 2>Not that okay, the kind that is immersive that when

0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:13.800
<v Speaker 2>you leave you say to yourself, oh my gosh. That

0:09:14.000 --> 0:09:18.920
<v Speaker 2>was one of these transformational experiences. And we put on

0:09:18.920 --> 0:09:21.240
<v Speaker 2>one of these retreats, and we have another one that's

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:24.920
<v Speaker 2>coming up, two more of their scheduled. And I tell you,

0:09:25.000 --> 0:09:26.520
<v Speaker 2>I've been to a ton of retreats. I don't know

0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:31.320
<v Speaker 2>if you I love them. This one, by far was

0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 2>like transformational. And we had two hundred and fifty women

0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:40.440
<v Speaker 2>two hundred of them wound up on a Facebook group

0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:42.240
<v Speaker 2>together Wow without our help.

0:09:42.520 --> 0:09:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Amazing.

0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:46.720
<v Speaker 2>But it just showed the power of it. And we

0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:48.920
<v Speaker 2>did things. We did breath work, We had incredible We

0:09:48.960 --> 0:09:52.800
<v Speaker 2>had all kinds of transformational things that were next level.

0:09:52.880 --> 0:09:55.960
<v Speaker 2>We did one breath work class where everybody sat in

0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:59.480
<v Speaker 2>chairs opposite a stranger. Oh my, and you start the

0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 2>breath work with this guy named Anthony, and you breathe

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:03.080
<v Speaker 2>in and out, and you thought, oh, well, what's this

0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:04.840
<v Speaker 2>going to be about? So what you know, breathe in

0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:07.680
<v Speaker 2>and out. I've been breathing for sixty one years. But

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:11.160
<v Speaker 2>as you're doing it, you realize that something starts bubbling

0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:13.679
<v Speaker 2>up and he's speaking about you know, the topic here

0:10:13.760 --> 0:10:16.000
<v Speaker 2>is forgiveness. So you breathe. You're looking at a stranger's eyes,

0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:21.000
<v Speaker 2>and you go through this process and then he says, okay,

0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:24.080
<v Speaker 2>now stand up. Now you move down a chair, and

0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 2>now you look at someone new when you were finished

0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:29.680
<v Speaker 2>with this exercise that looks just like, huh, I wonder

0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:34.160
<v Speaker 2>what this is. I cannot tell you what happened. One

0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.800
<v Speaker 2>woman said, I haven't cried in five years. I feel

0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:39.440
<v Speaker 2>like a bottleneck. I couldn't. One person said that my

0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:42.400
<v Speaker 2>husband was going through a difficult period and I didn't

0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:46.280
<v Speaker 2>even think I wanted to come, but I feel replenished, renewed. Anyway,

0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:49.720
<v Speaker 2>So these these retreats, and we have great speakers and

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:52.360
<v Speaker 2>we do all the rest too, and music and all

0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:54.880
<v Speaker 2>the things nice. But so anyway, it was a way.

0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.720
<v Speaker 2>This company was a way for me to do all

0:10:57.760 --> 0:10:59.120
<v Speaker 2>the things I want to do.

0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Amazing people out, Yeah, amazing. So you have retreats and

0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:06.480
<v Speaker 1>then you have you drive people around in a.

0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Car, people around in a car. We all joy right, okay,

0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:10.559
<v Speaker 2>joy rides.

0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:13.120
<v Speaker 1>So it's kind of like a conversation but maybe not

0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.120
<v Speaker 1>as long as your podcast. And then you also have

0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:16.160
<v Speaker 1>a podcast.

0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:17.880
<v Speaker 2>And I have a podcast too, and then we do

0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:21.520
<v Speaker 2>We're doing all kinds of really cool and interesting things

0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:23.319
<v Speaker 2>that I think are going to be helpful to people.

0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:27.880
<v Speaker 2>And I feel like again, like you know, I got

0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:30.120
<v Speaker 2>to a certain age and I was like, why don't

0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:33.559
<v Speaker 2>I feel the way I want to feel? Like I

0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:36.920
<v Speaker 2>haven't changed anything? I meaning broccoli, I'm like spinning at

0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:41.200
<v Speaker 2>soul cycle. I still don't have the sparkle and what

0:11:41.440 --> 0:11:44.679
<v Speaker 2>is that? And is it findable? And the answer to

0:11:44.720 --> 0:11:47.360
<v Speaker 2>me is yes it is. There are so many different

0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:49.760
<v Speaker 2>avenues to try and there's so many solutions that are

0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:50.079
<v Speaker 2>out there.

0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:52.680
<v Speaker 1>Do you think, because it's interesting when you were telling

0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:56.040
<v Speaker 1>me the different adjectives that you would perceive that you're

0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:58.480
<v Speaker 1>doing that a lot of them are kind of service related.

0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:01.000
<v Speaker 1>Do you feel you know, is that thing Over talks

0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:03.800
<v Speaker 1>about about like different people have different kind of you know,

0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:06.880
<v Speaker 1>things that are going to you know, satisfy them or

0:12:06.920 --> 0:12:09.520
<v Speaker 1>please them or you know, give them deep deep of

0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:12.960
<v Speaker 1>deep feeling of satisfactor faction. Do you feel service? Is

0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:13.520
<v Speaker 1>that for you?

0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:16.400
<v Speaker 2>Yes? Is Yes. I do feel like that's a big

0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:19.600
<v Speaker 2>part of me. Yeah. I think it's like you know,

0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:23.360
<v Speaker 2>when you when somehow you feel better and then you

0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:26.200
<v Speaker 2>see your best friend or your sister or somebody doesn't right,

0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:29.440
<v Speaker 2>and you're like, we could, let's let's help here, right,

0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:32.600
<v Speaker 2>there are things we can do help, Yes, And I

0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:34.720
<v Speaker 2>just feel like we're you know, it's the whole mister

0:12:34.800 --> 0:12:37.360
<v Speaker 2>Rogers like, look for the helpers. I feel like that's

0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:40.200
<v Speaker 2>what I want us to be, right, and I want

0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:41.720
<v Speaker 2>to be and I want my kids to be I

0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:44.160
<v Speaker 2>want kids to be those kind of people. So I

0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:48.240
<v Speaker 2>do think services is the way that ID lean. And

0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:50.560
<v Speaker 2>I also think we all deserve to feel good. Not

0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:53.800
<v Speaker 2>everything is about oh so you're sixty whatever and of

0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 2>course you're feeling terrible. Well actually, no, let's subject that

0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:00.480
<v Speaker 2>we don't think so no, no, yeah.

0:13:00.760 --> 0:13:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Well that's kind of like that thing that society is

0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:05.840
<v Speaker 1>going to kind of push on you to some extent.

0:13:05.880 --> 0:13:08.840
<v Speaker 1>And I also think that the wonders of social media

0:13:08.880 --> 0:13:11.200
<v Speaker 1>are that you can connect with people. But then sometimes

0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:15.040
<v Speaker 1>the negative voices seem to gain power or the algorithm

0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:19.319
<v Speaker 1>reward or something. So sometimes that can also be negative

0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 1>stuff coming at you about age, about whatever, you know

0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:26.280
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying, rather than the helpful part, which I

0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:27.160
<v Speaker 1>think you have to look for.

0:13:27.520 --> 0:13:29.959
<v Speaker 2>Yes, And I think it's funny. It's like that whole

0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:34.400
<v Speaker 2>like whatever you put in becomes you. And it's so true.

0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:36.760
<v Speaker 2>And I've you know, we've all gone through seasons where

0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:39.360
<v Speaker 2>sometimes you're just in a funk, right and.

0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:44.320
<v Speaker 1>You're burnt, are burnt out entire life, like we're going

0:13:44.520 --> 0:13:49.040
<v Speaker 1>going doing doing, we're not really thinking about filling the cup.

0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:51.680
<v Speaker 1>As you said, you know, everyone needs their cup to

0:13:51.679 --> 0:13:52.120
<v Speaker 1>be filled.

0:13:52.160 --> 0:13:54.480
<v Speaker 2>And I think it is like whatever you're you know

0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:56.559
<v Speaker 2>how what kind of moods you're in, look at your algorithm.

0:13:57.000 --> 0:14:00.679
<v Speaker 2>Whatever you're getting overdosed on, that's on you, because that

0:14:00.760 --> 0:14:03.880
<v Speaker 2>means that's where you're stopping, that's where you're lingering, that's

0:14:03.880 --> 0:14:07.280
<v Speaker 2>what you're interested in, right, and you really we all

0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:10.480
<v Speaker 2>have to change our algorithm because I mean, look, you

0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:13.960
<v Speaker 2>can have an algorithm full of you know, people giving

0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:17.839
<v Speaker 2>money away to somebody and a beautiful affirmation and oh

0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:20.040
<v Speaker 2>my god, FIFA they scored and the guy's giving his

0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:23.640
<v Speaker 2>shirt to a competitive team. But they're all hugging, like

0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:26.800
<v Speaker 2>you can have that algorithm definitely and see the world

0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:30.480
<v Speaker 2>in that beautiful way. I was just my mom is

0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:34.520
<v Speaker 2>in an assisted living place, and I was I went

0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:37.880
<v Speaker 2>to speak bragging at their place. And as I was speaking,

0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:40.920
<v Speaker 2>we were talking about how we all view the world.

0:14:41.040 --> 0:14:43.840
<v Speaker 2>And a woman walked up to me and she handed

0:14:43.880 --> 0:14:45.480
<v Speaker 2>me She said, will you sign my book? You know

0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:46.800
<v Speaker 2>I had a book some books you will you sign

0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:48.560
<v Speaker 2>this from me? I said, oh sure, Joes I had mine.

0:14:49.000 --> 0:14:50.400
<v Speaker 2>I said, oh, I want, I want to see. So

0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:53.440
<v Speaker 2>it was a poetry book and this woman named Peggy

0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 2>is a poet. And on the back of the book

0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:58.080
<v Speaker 2>where it was a published book, where all of these

0:14:58.200 --> 0:15:01.640
<v Speaker 2>beautiful poets who had talked about her incredible writing. And

0:15:01.680 --> 0:15:05.480
<v Speaker 2>I thought, sitting here, you know, in this nice place,

0:15:05.520 --> 0:15:08.320
<v Speaker 2>but this woman who has all of this beautiful knowledge

0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:11.520
<v Speaker 2>and all of this stuff, and the way she sees

0:15:11.560 --> 0:15:15.000
<v Speaker 2>the world is with beauty, someone else might look out

0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:18.120
<v Speaker 2>at the same out of the same window and say, oh,

0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:22.840
<v Speaker 2>what a terribly cloudy day. And she would write a

0:15:22.880 --> 0:15:26.320
<v Speaker 2>poem about it. That would be something captivating interesting just

0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 2>thinking about, like you know, any like, look, you and

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:32.280
<v Speaker 2>I could both be sitting in these chairs and we're

0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:36.400
<v Speaker 2>living in two different worlds and here we are absolutely yether,

0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:37.520
<v Speaker 2>one hundred percent, and.

0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, I mean this is true all the time.

0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:43.720
<v Speaker 1>I think, right, like people are in their own existence,

0:15:43.880 --> 0:15:45.880
<v Speaker 1>and there's a lot that goes into that, and you

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:49.080
<v Speaker 1>never really know what's going on with people. And I

0:15:49.120 --> 0:15:52.560
<v Speaker 1>do think also like you could only really control your

0:15:52.600 --> 0:15:55.720
<v Speaker 1>own world and what you're putting back out into the world, right,

0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:59.600
<v Speaker 1>and sometimes there's like too many like horrible, horrible things

0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:02.920
<v Speaker 1>are happening to people, right and you can't necessarily just

0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:04.440
<v Speaker 1>change that, as much as we would like to and

0:16:04.520 --> 0:16:05.680
<v Speaker 1>as much as we all want to try.

0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:07.880
<v Speaker 2>But you can create.

0:16:07.480 --> 0:16:11.000
<v Speaker 1>Something positive that people can come to, which is what

0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:12.840
<v Speaker 1>you've done with Joe warn One, which I love, and

0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:15.120
<v Speaker 1>just in life, you can create something like I was

0:16:15.600 --> 0:16:18.520
<v Speaker 1>I saw something I can't remember. Oh it's someone that

0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:21.280
<v Speaker 1>I follow, actually, this young man in South Carolina. He

0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:24.760
<v Speaker 1>has this dog and that I have dogs and elephants

0:16:24.800 --> 0:16:28.240
<v Speaker 1>and cats on my feed currently and almost always. But

0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:31.000
<v Speaker 1>he was so sweet. He was talking about how he

0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:32.960
<v Speaker 1>had gone through this really hard since twenties, right, he

0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:34.720
<v Speaker 1>was talking about He's gone through this really hard time.

0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:36.760
<v Speaker 1>And then he really felt like, I've got to pull

0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:39.600
<v Speaker 1>myself out of this depression. I'm just so depressed. I

0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:41.920
<v Speaker 1>can't get out of the house. I'm just really down.

0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:46.320
<v Speaker 1>And he said, I'm just going to start complimenting strangers.

0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:49.320
<v Speaker 2>That was the first step he made. Wow, isn't that

0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:50.520
<v Speaker 2>so interesting?

0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:53.760
<v Speaker 1>He just in line at the grocery store and he

0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:56.640
<v Speaker 1>turned to this really much, much much older woman and

0:16:56.680 --> 0:16:59.520
<v Speaker 1>told her she liked he liked her dress, and he

0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:02.880
<v Speaker 1>said she looked at him like he was insane, but

0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:05.760
<v Speaker 1>that you know, once he just let it like stood

0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:08.040
<v Speaker 1>there enough so that she realized that he wasn't like

0:17:08.160 --> 0:17:11.800
<v Speaker 1>crazy or going to hurt her whatever. I mean, reason

0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:14.679
<v Speaker 1>is a weird thing, right that once she realized he

0:17:14.760 --> 0:17:17.080
<v Speaker 1>was just being genuine and wanted to say something positive,

0:17:17.119 --> 0:17:18.919
<v Speaker 1>that it really meant a lot to her, and that

0:17:19.320 --> 0:17:21.439
<v Speaker 1>it kind of derailed her day. That is in a

0:17:21.480 --> 0:17:25.080
<v Speaker 1>positive way, isn't it. He's changed the simple things. Yeah, right,

0:17:25.119 --> 0:17:26.640
<v Speaker 1>that was his first step, and then there's a lot

0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:28.040
<v Speaker 1>of other steps that he made after that.

0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Once he started feeling better, and.

0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:31.440
<v Speaker 1>It was so great that he was talking about it

0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:33.560
<v Speaker 1>because he's young and he doesn't it's not like he's

0:17:34.400 --> 0:17:38.040
<v Speaker 1>practiced her worldly or whatever. But he's just like working

0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:40.199
<v Speaker 1>on himself in a way and trying to put it

0:17:40.240 --> 0:17:41.080
<v Speaker 1>out there in the world.

0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:53.120
<v Speaker 2>And I'm so oppressed with that. The thing that.

0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:55.239
<v Speaker 1>Also comes to my mind as you're talking about this

0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:58.760
<v Speaker 1>is that in this episode, because you have very generously agreed,

0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:03.360
<v Speaker 1>of course, you rewatch Unoriginal Sin, which is a super

0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:06.960
<v Speaker 1>fascinating episode, and in it, Charlotte goes to a self

0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:08.879
<v Speaker 1>help thing. I'd totally forgotten about this.

0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:11.399
<v Speaker 2>By the way, I was so connecting with Charlotte. And

0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:14.280
<v Speaker 2>first of all, can I just say Sex and the

0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:17.840
<v Speaker 2>City premiered in ninety eight. That was the first year

0:18:18.040 --> 0:18:21.280
<v Speaker 2>I moved to New York and started working at Dateline,

0:18:21.359 --> 0:18:23.640
<v Speaker 2>and was, by the way, when I got to New York,

0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:29.119
<v Speaker 2>I arrived from New Orleans scared of everything. Wow, couldn't

0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:33.080
<v Speaker 2>understand how to navigate New York, terrifying. It's a lot,

0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:36.200
<v Speaker 2>it's a lot. My mom came to help me move

0:18:36.240 --> 0:18:38.280
<v Speaker 2>into my apartment. I had an apartment on eighty first,

0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:42.440
<v Speaker 2>and as I was there, I said, I don't know anybody,

0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:44.840
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know how anyone ever knows anybody. Yeah,

0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:49.680
<v Speaker 2>and within I don't know how long my mom knew

0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:53.560
<v Speaker 2>the guy who ran the bodega. The Starbucks barista had

0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:56.520
<v Speaker 2>her order, Wow, this is my daughter. This is how

0:18:56.880 --> 0:18:59.000
<v Speaker 2>she's kind. And I was like, wait, what's happening. My

0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:01.840
<v Speaker 2>mom's introduced And then I realized you only had to

0:19:01.920 --> 0:19:08.000
<v Speaker 2>know your singular block and then you had a neighborhood. Yeah.

0:19:08.000 --> 0:19:10.840
<v Speaker 2>But Sex and the City was like almost like a

0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:15.040
<v Speaker 2>warm blanket because I was like, wait, how to people?

0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:18.800
<v Speaker 2>And then I watched you guys and I was like, wait, okay,

0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:22.400
<v Speaker 2>so these are four cool girls who are navigating through

0:19:22.440 --> 0:19:25.600
<v Speaker 2>They're all different and I so I had such a

0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:29.080
<v Speaker 2>kind of warm blanket feeling because I used to sit

0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:31.320
<v Speaker 2>in coffee shops alone because I didn't know with e

0:19:31.440 --> 0:19:33.840
<v Speaker 2>like a read the paper or read a book. I'm like,

0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:36.040
<v Speaker 2>maybe I'll meet someone just sitting here. And I worked

0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:39.359
<v Speaker 2>at Dateline, so I was constantly flying to a prison

0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:42.760
<v Speaker 2>in Kentucky or wherever. So I didn't even have a

0:19:42.800 --> 0:19:47.080
<v Speaker 2>constant schedule tait be with my colleagues. It's like you're oh,

0:19:47.119 --> 0:19:49.480
<v Speaker 2>you're gone right, or you're flying right. But anyway, it

0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:52.000
<v Speaker 2>was so interesting, so to start off, that was such

0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:55.840
<v Speaker 2>a touch point. And I can only imagine how many

0:19:55.920 --> 0:19:58.640
<v Speaker 2>other women who were new to New York thinking can

0:19:58.680 --> 0:20:00.000
<v Speaker 2>I make it here? Is it possible?

0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:00.439
<v Speaker 1>Bowl?

0:20:00.720 --> 0:20:07.879
<v Speaker 2>You know? Yeah, but that but Charlotte's whole post like breakup,

0:20:09.400 --> 0:20:14.040
<v Speaker 2>the divorce, yeah, and the and the whole like I

0:20:14.080 --> 0:20:18.919
<v Speaker 2>A quitting. I was like girls, she shows herman it's true,

0:20:19.080 --> 0:20:21.320
<v Speaker 2>It's true. Yeah. The thing that I love.

0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:24.000
<v Speaker 1>In this episode because I don't remember a lot of this, right,

0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:26.439
<v Speaker 1>Like there's things that I remember really, really well. But

0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:30.840
<v Speaker 1>once we get to a certain time, because in season three,

0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:33.639
<v Speaker 1>I think we did eighteen and season four we did eighteen.

0:20:33.680 --> 0:20:36.320
<v Speaker 1>It's a lot, right, And then also we're getting successful,

0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:38.000
<v Speaker 1>We're going to all award shows. In your heads just

0:20:38.040 --> 0:20:39.680
<v Speaker 1>spinning even if you're not at work, do you know

0:20:39.720 --> 0:20:42.040
<v Speaker 1>what I mean? Yea, And things get a little fuzzy,

0:20:42.119 --> 0:20:44.920
<v Speaker 1>so like I hadn't remembered everything in a linear way

0:20:44.960 --> 0:20:48.159
<v Speaker 1>and I'd forgotten about this in between time when she's

0:20:49.280 --> 0:20:52.320
<v Speaker 1>divorced from Trey, hasn't really gotten together with Harry yet, right,

0:20:52.720 --> 0:20:55.640
<v Speaker 1>It's an interesting time and Charlotte never gives up. That's

0:20:55.640 --> 0:20:57.480
<v Speaker 1>one of the things that I love the most about her,

0:20:57.680 --> 0:20:59.200
<v Speaker 1>and she almost always believes.

0:20:59.320 --> 0:20:59.800
<v Speaker 2>But here in.

0:20:59.800 --> 0:21:03.040
<v Speaker 1>This episode we're seeing her falter, We're seeing her not

0:21:03.400 --> 0:21:07.040
<v Speaker 1>sure if she can still have hope. Yes, rare, this

0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:07.840
<v Speaker 1>is rare.

0:21:07.760 --> 0:21:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Well, right for starters. Yeah, the fact Charlotte's always hopeful,

0:21:11.560 --> 0:21:14.040
<v Speaker 2>so you always feel like I see a part of

0:21:14.080 --> 0:21:16.479
<v Speaker 2>myself and her. I'm like, yes, of course it's going

0:21:16.560 --> 0:21:18.280
<v Speaker 2>to be happening. Of course you're going to find him.

0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:20.480
<v Speaker 2>Of course it's going to work. You know. It's that

0:21:20.560 --> 0:21:23.000
<v Speaker 2>hole I tell my kids thoughts become things like think

0:21:23.040 --> 0:21:26.040
<v Speaker 2>the thing, think the thing, cross become things. Right. And

0:21:26.080 --> 0:21:30.240
<v Speaker 2>then there was that part where at the self help

0:21:30.320 --> 0:21:34.639
<v Speaker 2>meeting when the cheerleadery go go, you know woman in

0:21:34.680 --> 0:21:37.160
<v Speaker 2>the front who was like telling everyone you can have everything,

0:21:37.560 --> 0:21:39.639
<v Speaker 2>and she was on my nerve. Sorry, I know. And

0:21:39.680 --> 0:21:42.560
<v Speaker 2>then the fact that your character that Charlotte stood up

0:21:43.720 --> 0:21:45.520
<v Speaker 2>and said, actually I am trying, and she's like, no,

0:21:45.560 --> 0:21:48.560
<v Speaker 2>you're not, I know, which is like the dark side

0:21:48.600 --> 0:21:50.560
<v Speaker 2>of us anyway, maybe I'm not trying, I know.

0:21:50.680 --> 0:21:52.840
<v Speaker 1>And I've been to self help things like that where

0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:54.600
<v Speaker 1>they are really critical of you.

0:21:54.800 --> 0:21:57.080
<v Speaker 2>I have been to that, and it is messed up.

0:21:57.320 --> 0:21:59.679
<v Speaker 2>It's messed up the way she kept saying no, and

0:21:59.680 --> 0:22:04.199
<v Speaker 2>you're like, well but actually I'm putting myself no, not

0:22:04.560 --> 0:22:07.919
<v Speaker 2>enough and not in the right way. Moving on. But

0:22:08.240 --> 0:22:11.600
<v Speaker 2>every woman who has tried, and you know, sometimes you

0:22:11.640 --> 0:22:13.720
<v Speaker 2>have your blue sky friends who are like, just go,

0:22:14.119 --> 0:22:16.400
<v Speaker 2>just do this, and you're amazing.

0:22:16.560 --> 0:22:19.320
<v Speaker 1>You're right on your mirror, like you see Charlotte writing on.

0:22:20.160 --> 0:22:22.240
<v Speaker 2>I know, what was it? You're loved or whatever. I

0:22:22.280 --> 0:22:24.440
<v Speaker 2>know when you're taking the lipstick first of all, any

0:22:24.480 --> 0:22:28.480
<v Speaker 2>affirmation I'm for. But there was something that's almost heartbreaking

0:22:28.680 --> 0:22:33.560
<v Speaker 2>about someone who's almost like you're you're you're doing all

0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:37.560
<v Speaker 2>the right thing. Yeah, it's like I followed the rule book.

0:22:37.880 --> 0:22:41.879
<v Speaker 2>Where's the end here? Doing what you're telling me? You know?

0:22:42.440 --> 0:22:45.840
<v Speaker 2>And they say, you know, like life happens right on

0:22:45.960 --> 0:22:49.320
<v Speaker 2>time and you can be you know, forcing it or

0:22:49.320 --> 0:22:51.520
<v Speaker 2>maybe it's now or maybe if I was just this way,

0:22:51.600 --> 0:22:54.200
<v Speaker 2>or maybe I tried to be like that, I could

0:22:54.240 --> 0:22:57.520
<v Speaker 2>find the brass ring that everybody else has and where's mine?

0:22:58.160 --> 0:23:00.560
<v Speaker 2>But you know, here's to all the late bloomers out there.

0:23:00.880 --> 0:23:03.600
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, and also I just think it it, you know,

0:23:03.640 --> 0:23:06.480
<v Speaker 1>and for Charlotte, obviously we know so much is coming.

0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:10.880
<v Speaker 1>But it's so interesting to see, like I so relate

0:23:11.000 --> 0:23:14.440
<v Speaker 1>also to trying so hard and feeling like, Okay, I'm

0:23:14.480 --> 0:23:16.320
<v Speaker 1>going to follow this person who's going to tell me

0:23:16.400 --> 0:23:19.159
<v Speaker 1>what to do, right. And so she drags carry to

0:23:19.240 --> 0:23:24.119
<v Speaker 1>this thing, all women there, all searching, right, and this

0:23:24.160 --> 0:23:26.480
<v Speaker 1>woman up there in her suit is like, well, are

0:23:26.520 --> 0:23:27.240
<v Speaker 1>you really?

0:23:27.720 --> 0:23:30.879
<v Speaker 2>Are you really? You know, it's just hars It's.

0:23:30.880 --> 0:23:33.800
<v Speaker 1>So harsh and annoying. And I just love how Charlotte

0:23:33.800 --> 0:23:36.719
<v Speaker 1>really bravely, so bravely stands up and says, you know,

0:23:36.760 --> 0:23:38.919
<v Speaker 1>she really is trying, but she did have it all

0:23:38.920 --> 0:23:40.200
<v Speaker 1>and then it just totally fell.

0:23:40.040 --> 0:23:41.480
<v Speaker 2>Apart and she doesn't know what to do.

0:23:41.680 --> 0:23:44.000
<v Speaker 1>And she's been doing the affirmations because I do think

0:23:44.080 --> 0:23:46.320
<v Speaker 1>affirmations are a tricky one because there's a lot of

0:23:46.320 --> 0:23:50.560
<v Speaker 1>people on Instagram and everywhere else TikTok telling you about affirmations, right,

0:23:50.840 --> 0:23:53.600
<v Speaker 1>And I do love affirmations, but I also feel, and

0:23:53.600 --> 0:23:56.000
<v Speaker 1>then I'm talking about Kristin in life, not Charlotte. I

0:23:56.040 --> 0:23:59.960
<v Speaker 1>also feel that sometimes you're doing like a rote affirmation

0:24:00.720 --> 0:24:03.520
<v Speaker 1>that you think you should be doing, but your body

0:24:03.560 --> 0:24:06.720
<v Speaker 1>knows that you don't believe it. Do you think that's.

0:24:06.520 --> 0:24:09.280
<v Speaker 2>Something I believe it one hundred and you kind of

0:24:09.320 --> 0:24:12.840
<v Speaker 2>go through emotions. It's like a pretender, like, let me

0:24:12.920 --> 0:24:14.720
<v Speaker 2>go through, and I'm going to keep saying that and

0:24:14.720 --> 0:24:17.040
<v Speaker 2>saying that you're right if your body doesn't believe you.

0:24:17.720 --> 0:24:21.960
<v Speaker 2>And look, sometimes repetition helps and sometimes it doesn't sometimes.

0:24:21.440 --> 0:24:23.280
<v Speaker 1>And I think sometimes you don't know what else to do.

0:24:23.400 --> 0:24:25.520
<v Speaker 1>And in that case, I feel like that's a positive thing.

0:24:25.520 --> 0:24:27.119
<v Speaker 1>It's a lot more than beating yourself.

0:24:27.200 --> 0:24:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Yes, doing something that is important.

0:24:29.600 --> 0:24:32.760
<v Speaker 1>Something positive, something towards.

0:24:31.880 --> 0:24:34.760
<v Speaker 2>I do something with my kids. I actually heard someone

0:24:35.040 --> 0:24:38.679
<v Speaker 2>say this, and it's about repeating things and it works

0:24:38.680 --> 0:24:41.080
<v Speaker 2>to put them to sleep, but it also works to

0:24:41.320 --> 0:24:44.680
<v Speaker 2>calm yourself, any of us, let's hear it. So the

0:24:44.720 --> 0:24:48.199
<v Speaker 2>first thing, okay, so when I say, I get them

0:24:48.240 --> 0:24:51.720
<v Speaker 2>tucked in bed, and the first thing that we say

0:24:52.400 --> 0:24:57.120
<v Speaker 2>is I am safe. So you repeat it, I am safe.

0:24:57.280 --> 0:25:00.880
<v Speaker 2>Not until I am safe, I go keep keep saying it, sweetie,

0:25:00.920 --> 0:25:06.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm safe until your body goes your body believes that

0:25:07.080 --> 0:25:10.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying. Okay. The second one, which is my hardest one,

0:25:10.240 --> 0:25:15.600
<v Speaker 2>is there is no urgency. There's no urgency. Wow, there's

0:25:15.680 --> 0:25:18.680
<v Speaker 2>no urgency. And you repeat it and repeat it and

0:25:18.720 --> 0:25:21.920
<v Speaker 2>repeat it not until your brain gets it. You keep

0:25:21.960 --> 0:25:24.080
<v Speaker 2>repeating it, and there will come a time no matter

0:25:24.160 --> 0:25:25.879
<v Speaker 2>how many times you have to repeat that, your body

0:25:25.920 --> 0:25:31.040
<v Speaker 2>goes okay. And then the last one is I am

0:25:31.119 --> 0:25:36.240
<v Speaker 2>still and calm. I am still and calm, and you

0:25:36.280 --> 0:25:41.480
<v Speaker 2>repeat it until your body size. And when your body size,

0:25:41.520 --> 0:25:44.880
<v Speaker 2>it means your body's like, okay, you're right, I got you.

0:25:45.200 --> 0:25:47.720
<v Speaker 2>But those three things my kids often fall asleep. I

0:25:47.840 --> 0:25:52.600
<v Speaker 2>do it sometimes before a big speech, yeah something, because

0:25:52.640 --> 0:25:56.359
<v Speaker 2>it's like a it's like there's no urgency, it's gonna happen,

0:25:57.119 --> 0:25:59.440
<v Speaker 2>and when you're done, it's helpful. But when it comes

0:25:59.480 --> 0:26:03.280
<v Speaker 2>to affirmations, I get it. There's some blue sky kind

0:26:03.320 --> 0:26:06.760
<v Speaker 2>of BSc things that you feel like please, you know,

0:26:06.920 --> 0:26:08.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean there are a point like I have so

0:26:08.520 --> 0:26:10.920
<v Speaker 2>many affirmations on my feed that after a while sometimes

0:26:11.000 --> 0:26:14.520
<v Speaker 2>I roll it. I'm like, Okay, here's another one. But

0:26:14.760 --> 0:26:17.800
<v Speaker 2>I think it's like, you know, using them sparingly and

0:26:17.920 --> 0:26:20.119
<v Speaker 2>using them in the right way like Charlotte right.

0:26:20.280 --> 0:26:22.760
<v Speaker 1>And I also do think that like if you're really

0:26:22.800 --> 0:26:25.439
<v Speaker 1>thinking about times like I can think about times, you know,

0:26:25.520 --> 0:26:28.520
<v Speaker 1>in my twenties where you know you're just you don't

0:26:28.560 --> 0:26:31.040
<v Speaker 1>know what's going to happen, and life is just like

0:26:31.359 --> 0:26:35.000
<v Speaker 1>crazy upside down. You don't know what's going on. That's

0:26:35.000 --> 0:26:37.320
<v Speaker 1>a better thing to do than a lot of other

0:26:37.359 --> 0:26:39.520
<v Speaker 1>things one could be doing. Right, So I think there's

0:26:39.560 --> 0:26:41.680
<v Speaker 1>exact something seeps in somewhere.

0:26:41.880 --> 0:26:44.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I try to go to as many of those

0:26:44.280 --> 0:26:47.199
<v Speaker 2>kinds of things. I was listening to a guy who

0:26:47.240 --> 0:26:50.200
<v Speaker 2>does a podcast and he said, for he's he's wanted

0:26:50.240 --> 0:26:51.520
<v Speaker 2>to be a coach, and he ended up being a

0:26:51.600 --> 0:26:54.359
<v Speaker 2>great one. But he said, for every weekend, for fifty

0:26:54.400 --> 0:26:57.639
<v Speaker 2>two weeks in one year, I went to some kind

0:26:57.720 --> 0:27:00.720
<v Speaker 2>of a thing like that. It was a week in

0:27:00.840 --> 0:27:05.440
<v Speaker 2>retreat and online learning a thing. I made it a habit. Wow,

0:27:05.560 --> 0:27:08.200
<v Speaker 2>for fifty two weeks a lot I was going to

0:27:08.280 --> 0:27:10.560
<v Speaker 2>learn something. I was going to do a course online,

0:27:11.119 --> 0:27:14.520
<v Speaker 2>or listen to whatever, go to the ninety second street

0:27:14.600 --> 0:27:17.400
<v Speaker 2>y and listen to a speaker, or do whatever. Did

0:27:17.440 --> 0:27:20.960
<v Speaker 2>all the things for fifty two weeks. And imagine if

0:27:20.960 --> 0:27:23.639
<v Speaker 2>you did that for one day, one one, you know,

0:27:24.000 --> 0:27:27.280
<v Speaker 2>two hours, for three hours, for a year, how much

0:27:28.119 --> 0:27:31.040
<v Speaker 2>richer you would feel inside, how much you'd know, how

0:27:31.119 --> 0:27:34.159
<v Speaker 2>much you'd feel different. That's interesting. I thought, it's so

0:27:34.280 --> 0:27:35.200
<v Speaker 2>interesting yeah.

0:27:35.240 --> 0:27:37.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, do you think there's so many different kind

0:27:37.960 --> 0:27:45.040
<v Speaker 1>of modalities and you know, meditation theories and yoga and

0:27:45.080 --> 0:27:47.360
<v Speaker 1>different there's so many different things. And if you do

0:27:47.520 --> 0:27:50.040
<v Speaker 1>go on a on a kind of journey to find

0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:52.119
<v Speaker 1>one that clicks with you, that's one.

0:27:52.359 --> 0:27:53.200
<v Speaker 2>I think that's key.

0:27:53.240 --> 0:27:55.600
<v Speaker 1>But I also think not everyone can do that, right,

0:27:55.640 --> 0:27:58.199
<v Speaker 1>So then it's it's nice to know little kind of

0:27:58.280 --> 0:28:00.520
<v Speaker 1>almost like tricks and tools on along the.

0:28:00.400 --> 0:28:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Way right totally, which is cool.

0:28:02.440 --> 0:28:04.240
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's talk about the episode for second, because

0:28:04.280 --> 0:28:05.600
<v Speaker 1>I can talk to you about all things. But we're

0:28:05.600 --> 0:28:07.960
<v Speaker 1>going to talk over in your room later. It's going

0:28:08.040 --> 0:28:20.800
<v Speaker 1>to be really fun. Okay, So this is a cool

0:28:20.840 --> 0:28:23.520
<v Speaker 1>episode because we're back. This is us coming back in

0:28:23.520 --> 0:28:27.119
<v Speaker 1>season five after Branda has had her baby, which is

0:28:27.119 --> 0:28:29.640
<v Speaker 1>a very big shift and change for our whole episode.

0:28:29.640 --> 0:28:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Can I also say our whole show? You have given

0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:35.440
<v Speaker 1>such sweet interviews over time about Sex City.

0:28:35.520 --> 0:28:36.920
<v Speaker 2>It's so sweet like love.

0:28:37.000 --> 0:28:40.160
<v Speaker 1>At one point you said something about you that you

0:28:40.240 --> 0:28:42.400
<v Speaker 1>felt like it let other people know who are like

0:28:42.400 --> 0:28:44.640
<v Speaker 1>sitting by themselves in their living room, that we're single,

0:28:44.680 --> 0:28:46.520
<v Speaker 1>that it's okay, we're all together.

0:28:47.720 --> 0:28:50.440
<v Speaker 2>That was such a huge I don't think I mean

0:28:50.640 --> 0:28:52.560
<v Speaker 2>maybe you guys do know. I'm sure millions of people

0:28:52.560 --> 0:28:54.200
<v Speaker 2>have come up to you over the years and said, hey,

0:28:54.400 --> 0:28:56.840
<v Speaker 2>you don't know what it meant, But there is when

0:28:56.880 --> 0:29:03.280
<v Speaker 2>you can see yourself, your situation in somebody else and realize, like, wait,

0:29:03.880 --> 0:29:07.720
<v Speaker 2>even cool girls get lonely, or wait, even cool girls

0:29:07.760 --> 0:29:13.280
<v Speaker 2>get confused, or even someone's mistake make mistakes. Yeah, and

0:29:13.360 --> 0:29:16.440
<v Speaker 2>even someone who can be like like Samantha such a

0:29:16.480 --> 0:29:21.360
<v Speaker 2>boss and also can be so vulnerable, and you can

0:29:21.440 --> 0:29:24.200
<v Speaker 2>see like all these different parts, and I think there

0:29:24.240 --> 0:29:27.360
<v Speaker 2>was something about that that made all of us feel

0:29:27.440 --> 0:29:31.560
<v Speaker 2>like either less alone and also it's fun to see

0:29:31.600 --> 0:29:35.480
<v Speaker 2>something ambitious. It's like, oh, well, clothes, fun, Okay, what

0:29:35.520 --> 0:29:37.640
<v Speaker 2>are they doing? Where are they going? So New York

0:29:37.720 --> 0:29:42.400
<v Speaker 2>can be this too, this fun, cool, vibrant, glamorous place.

0:29:42.600 --> 0:29:45.520
<v Speaker 2>And sometimes you just eating a pizza in your apartment,

0:29:45.920 --> 0:29:48.640
<v Speaker 2>which is most of the days, right, most of the time,

0:29:48.680 --> 0:29:50.640
<v Speaker 2>it you know, kind of felt like that. But to

0:29:50.680 --> 0:29:53.800
<v Speaker 2>see that they were by themselves, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's nice.

0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:55.680
<v Speaker 1>It's so nice to have people like yourself out there.

0:29:56.360 --> 0:29:59.320
<v Speaker 2>You know, of course, god you know what.

0:29:59.320 --> 0:30:02.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean it, But at this point in time, it's

0:30:02.680 --> 0:30:04.160
<v Speaker 1>fun for me. To look back because some of it

0:30:04.240 --> 0:30:06.360
<v Speaker 1>I really remember. Some of it I don't write like

0:30:06.480 --> 0:30:09.120
<v Speaker 1>I did not remember. This is the great episode where

0:30:09.160 --> 0:30:11.920
<v Speaker 1>Anne Mirra comes as Steve's mom.

0:30:12.080 --> 0:30:16.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh right, right, saw that right by the way. First

0:30:16.120 --> 0:30:20.720
<v Speaker 2>of all, the fact that Miranda never met her, right,

0:30:20.920 --> 0:30:23.320
<v Speaker 2>that was so for some reason that was so jarring

0:30:23.520 --> 0:30:26.240
<v Speaker 2>in rewatching it, because I rewatched it too, I was like, wait,

0:30:26.960 --> 0:30:29.880
<v Speaker 2>how what does that say about their relationship? If you

0:30:29.920 --> 0:30:34.120
<v Speaker 2>have never bothered or never wanted or he never offered, Like,

0:30:34.400 --> 0:30:35.760
<v Speaker 2>what does that tell you? Well?

0:30:35.800 --> 0:30:38.160
<v Speaker 1>It says a lot of things, though, which is interesting.

0:30:38.200 --> 0:30:41.360
<v Speaker 1>And it's interesting that we're now shifting right because the

0:30:41.360 --> 0:30:43.480
<v Speaker 1>theory and the plan from the get go had been

0:30:43.480 --> 0:30:46.320
<v Speaker 1>that we wouldn't see everyone's family like we never see mine.

0:30:46.400 --> 0:30:47.640
<v Speaker 2>We don't see carries, right.

0:30:48.160 --> 0:30:51.760
<v Speaker 1>We talk a little about them peppered through. There's little hints,

0:30:52.080 --> 0:30:55.120
<v Speaker 1>but Michael Patrick and Darren believed, and I think Candice

0:30:55.120 --> 0:30:57.520
<v Speaker 1>in her original column, you know in New York you

0:30:57.560 --> 0:30:59.560
<v Speaker 1>don't say, like, where are you from?

0:31:00.080 --> 0:31:00.360
<v Speaker 2>Parents?

0:31:00.440 --> 0:31:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Right, Like everyone's here, now you're here. Now You've come

0:31:03.600 --> 0:31:06.400
<v Speaker 1>here to this great city for some reason. Right, You

0:31:06.480 --> 0:31:09.320
<v Speaker 1>probably were talking about that reason, not about what you

0:31:09.440 --> 0:31:10.320
<v Speaker 1>liked that's interesting.

0:31:10.320 --> 0:31:13.120
<v Speaker 2>I didn't think about that. Yeah, that makes so much sense.

0:31:13.400 --> 0:31:16.200
<v Speaker 2>So when she popped up, it was extra like wait

0:31:16.480 --> 0:31:17.320
<v Speaker 2>what Yeah.

0:31:17.360 --> 0:31:20.400
<v Speaker 1>And also because she pops up with I mean, she's

0:31:20.480 --> 0:31:23.000
<v Speaker 1>just so fascinating immediately, first.

0:31:22.840 --> 0:31:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Of all, everybody loves her right, and secondly to watch

0:31:26.120 --> 0:31:30.240
<v Speaker 2>her in that role and she's so yeah, oh she's

0:31:30.320 --> 0:31:31.000
<v Speaker 2>so good.

0:31:31.080 --> 0:31:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Crowds that like being with her, and she's a sweetheart.

0:31:35.200 --> 0:31:37.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean she's just a sweet, sweet lady. And there

0:31:37.640 --> 0:31:41.280
<v Speaker 1>were so many connections. I think Sir Jessica knew her.

0:31:41.400 --> 0:31:42.280
<v Speaker 2>We all know Ben.

0:31:42.320 --> 0:31:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Of course, I think Sir Jessica knew Jerry. I mean

0:31:46.480 --> 0:31:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I feel like Michael.

0:31:47.360 --> 0:31:49.840
<v Speaker 2>Patrick might like there was connections.

0:31:49.880 --> 0:31:51.520
<v Speaker 1>But I also feel like it was kind of like

0:31:51.560 --> 0:31:55.600
<v Speaker 1>the dream was to have m play Yes Steven's mother,

0:31:55.640 --> 0:31:58.440
<v Speaker 1>and then it happened, which you're just like, you know,

0:31:58.480 --> 0:32:02.760
<v Speaker 1>it's amazing, it's amazing. And also just the New York

0:32:02.960 --> 0:32:06.680
<v Speaker 1>lore that game with her and carry incredible.

0:32:06.840 --> 0:32:09.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you just perfect. You just forget all these

0:32:09.960 --> 0:32:14.360
<v Speaker 2>cool people who popped up. We were so like everyone

0:32:14.400 --> 0:32:17.320
<v Speaker 2>was probably knocking on your door. I don't know if.

0:32:17.240 --> 0:32:18.920
<v Speaker 1>They were not going on our door. I know that

0:32:19.000 --> 0:32:21.680
<v Speaker 1>we would always really just try, you know. We would

0:32:21.680 --> 0:32:24.280
<v Speaker 1>always have our dream, our wish, and sometimes it would

0:32:24.280 --> 0:32:26.840
<v Speaker 1>work out, and sometimes it wouldn't, like scheduleise or whatever,

0:32:26.880 --> 0:32:29.800
<v Speaker 1>this or that. And I think sometimes like when isn't

0:32:29.800 --> 0:32:32.600
<v Speaker 1>this the episode where Emmy Sidaris and Molly Shannon are

0:32:32.600 --> 0:32:34.320
<v Speaker 1>sitting there too, which is so funny.

0:32:34.400 --> 0:32:38.920
<v Speaker 2>I've forgotten that was one of my favorite little scenes.

0:32:39.000 --> 0:32:42.959
<v Speaker 1>It's great they play like book published, they want her

0:32:43.000 --> 0:32:44.760
<v Speaker 1>to write a book, to write.

0:32:44.560 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 2>A book, and and and I know, and Carrie's kind

0:32:47.040 --> 0:32:49.400
<v Speaker 2>of like trying to be real in there. She's also like.

0:32:49.360 --> 0:32:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Do I want to I just like Carrie answer is yes.

0:32:55.440 --> 0:32:59.880
<v Speaker 1>They're funny, so brilliant, so funny. And I know when

0:32:59.920 --> 0:33:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I knew Molly had been on the show, and I

0:33:01.680 --> 0:33:03.240
<v Speaker 1>knew Amy had been on the show, but I didn't

0:33:03.280 --> 0:33:05.520
<v Speaker 1>remember in what way. Yeah, And then to see them

0:33:05.560 --> 0:33:08.720
<v Speaker 1>there and they're so believable as book editors.

0:33:08.080 --> 0:33:10.760
<v Speaker 2>I believed, and they were runny, sassy, and they were sassy,

0:33:10.800 --> 0:33:12.840
<v Speaker 2>and they were like, because you're hopeful, right, what's your

0:33:12.840 --> 0:33:15.960
<v Speaker 2>point of view? And She's like, well, I think right.

0:33:16.320 --> 0:33:19.520
<v Speaker 1>And this is like one almost pretty much a downtime

0:33:19.520 --> 0:33:23.040
<v Speaker 1>for Carrie because Aiden's gone, Big is gone, big has

0:33:23.080 --> 0:33:25.880
<v Speaker 1>moved to NAPA, Right, that's what happened at the end

0:33:25.960 --> 0:33:27.560
<v Speaker 1>of the last sear that's right.

0:33:27.480 --> 0:33:30.640
<v Speaker 2>So now and now. And she thought it's so funny

0:33:30.640 --> 0:33:34.240
<v Speaker 2>because when things start going wrong in life, and she

0:33:34.440 --> 0:33:36.680
<v Speaker 2>was thinking, I have nothing to write about. My column

0:33:36.720 --> 0:33:39.400
<v Speaker 2>is terrible, nobody likes it. I'm writing about boring things.

0:33:39.840 --> 0:33:43.320
<v Speaker 2>And you know, when you think everything's going wrong, and

0:33:43.360 --> 0:33:45.480
<v Speaker 2>so her editor is like hounding her and she's like,

0:33:45.520 --> 0:33:46.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm not taking that car.

0:33:46.440 --> 0:33:47.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to get fired.

0:33:47.200 --> 0:33:49.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna get fired. Right. It's so funny how life is.

0:33:49.520 --> 0:33:53.719
<v Speaker 2>You think that everything is like cascading, right, when in

0:33:53.760 --> 0:33:57.400
<v Speaker 2>reality he walks up to her and says, hey, good news. Right,

0:33:57.560 --> 0:33:59.120
<v Speaker 2>we want you to write put this in a book,

0:33:59.240 --> 0:34:00.680
<v Speaker 2>or someone wants you to one hundred percent.

0:34:00.760 --> 0:34:02.920
<v Speaker 1>And I also thought it was interesting because number one,

0:34:02.960 --> 0:34:06.640
<v Speaker 1>she absolutely believes that everything's bad because she's writing about

0:34:06.680 --> 0:34:09.160
<v Speaker 1>socks and she can't come up with anything right, and

0:34:09.200 --> 0:34:11.839
<v Speaker 1>she thinks she's gonna get fired because that's her mindset, right,

0:34:12.080 --> 0:34:15.000
<v Speaker 1>But then the world is actually giving you something different,

0:34:15.000 --> 0:34:18.239
<v Speaker 1>So it's kind of the opposite of affirmation in that way, right,

0:34:18.600 --> 0:34:20.480
<v Speaker 1>But then when they try to give it to her,

0:34:20.480 --> 0:34:21.920
<v Speaker 1>She's like, well, I don't know if I want to

0:34:21.960 --> 0:34:25.080
<v Speaker 1>write a book, and samanthas like, yes, you do. Everyone

0:34:25.160 --> 0:34:27.760
<v Speaker 1>and their brother has a book. There's a word anything

0:34:27.760 --> 0:34:30.080
<v Speaker 1>as a book or whatever. It's funny, but you're also

0:34:30.200 --> 0:34:34.759
<v Speaker 1>like Carrie, like you know, expand your thinking there. But

0:34:34.880 --> 0:34:36.800
<v Speaker 1>she's so.

0:34:36.360 --> 0:34:39.239
<v Speaker 2>Interesting and she's thinking like, my life's got to be

0:34:39.360 --> 0:34:41.479
<v Speaker 2>here and the book's out of my reach. I can't

0:34:41.480 --> 0:34:42.000
<v Speaker 2>write that.

0:34:42.400 --> 0:34:45.359
<v Speaker 1>I also think some of it is the times right,

0:34:45.400 --> 0:34:47.640
<v Speaker 1>because like if you think about now, and I think

0:34:47.800 --> 0:34:50.680
<v Speaker 1>because everybody, all of us are doing all the things

0:34:50.760 --> 0:34:53.959
<v Speaker 1>and are able to thank goodness. But also I feel

0:34:53.960 --> 0:34:55.799
<v Speaker 1>like because of social media and the way the world

0:34:55.800 --> 0:34:59.480
<v Speaker 1>has changed, everyone is able to create their brand and

0:34:59.600 --> 0:35:01.680
<v Speaker 1>do this to do that, and I think we're all

0:35:01.760 --> 0:35:03.520
<v Speaker 1>much more aware.

0:35:03.200 --> 0:35:06.279
<v Speaker 2>A good point. So back then you wouldn't you would

0:35:06.360 --> 0:35:08.880
<v Speaker 2>think of a book as a huge mountain to climb.

0:35:08.920 --> 0:35:11.680
<v Speaker 2>Now it's sort of like, you know, check out who's

0:35:11.680 --> 0:35:15.520
<v Speaker 2>got a book out this week? Exactly. That's so interesting that.

0:35:15.680 --> 0:35:18.480
<v Speaker 2>So I just love how she her character is such

0:35:18.480 --> 0:35:22.480
<v Speaker 2>a fierce defender of you and the other characters. I

0:35:22.560 --> 0:35:26.399
<v Speaker 2>just love the whole idea that you've got everyone needs

0:35:26.400 --> 0:35:29.319
<v Speaker 2>a friend who's like, uh uh, you're not messing with

0:35:29.360 --> 0:35:32.080
<v Speaker 2>my people. Like I love that you all have that together,

0:35:32.160 --> 0:35:34.239
<v Speaker 2>but displaying that, I mean, that's the thing.

0:35:34.360 --> 0:35:36.880
<v Speaker 1>It is really interesting to see the things that live on,

0:35:37.040 --> 0:35:39.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, and the things that are the strongest messages

0:35:39.840 --> 0:35:41.400
<v Speaker 1>that come out of it. And I feel like the

0:35:41.440 --> 0:35:45.759
<v Speaker 1>friendship part of it is the strongest thing, you know,

0:35:45.800 --> 0:35:47.719
<v Speaker 1>And all of the relationship things we can talk about

0:35:47.760 --> 0:35:50.359
<v Speaker 1>and they're interesting, and I think that relationship stuff lasts

0:35:50.360 --> 0:35:54.120
<v Speaker 1>forever because it's always on people's minds, right, Like it's

0:35:54.160 --> 0:35:57.400
<v Speaker 1>never going to change, and the specifics might change, like

0:35:57.520 --> 0:36:00.160
<v Speaker 1>now there's dating apps whenever we didn't have y, but

0:36:00.239 --> 0:36:03.400
<v Speaker 1>the issues are still the same, right. But the friendship

0:36:03.440 --> 0:36:06.160
<v Speaker 1>and the strength of the friendship, the importance of the

0:36:06.200 --> 0:36:09.360
<v Speaker 1>friendship now, I think are much more accepted in society,

0:36:09.400 --> 0:36:12.000
<v Speaker 1>which is back then everyone was like, well, I don't

0:36:12.000 --> 0:36:14.000
<v Speaker 1>know that much time to spend with my friends, which

0:36:14.120 --> 0:36:17.040
<v Speaker 1>was true, you know, but also now I think people realize, no,

0:36:17.120 --> 0:36:17.800
<v Speaker 1>that's important.

0:36:17.840 --> 0:36:22.880
<v Speaker 2>That's actually super important. Yes, that's such a good important fact.

0:36:22.960 --> 0:36:25.680
<v Speaker 2>And in that episode too, when you're talking about it,

0:36:25.680 --> 0:36:29.840
<v Speaker 2>it was sort of like Carrie's character just wanted to

0:36:29.880 --> 0:36:33.960
<v Speaker 2>be with the girls, and everybody else was thinking about, well,

0:36:33.960 --> 0:36:36.080
<v Speaker 2>we got to meet guys, right, and she was like,

0:36:36.120 --> 0:36:40.000
<v Speaker 2>but what about us right here? It's true? Is true?

0:36:40.520 --> 0:36:42.480
<v Speaker 2>Or do we come here together? That's so true?

0:36:42.560 --> 0:36:45.480
<v Speaker 1>But it's also like that's kind of different, and I

0:36:45.560 --> 0:36:47.480
<v Speaker 1>do you think, like in the nineties when we started

0:36:47.480 --> 0:36:50.359
<v Speaker 1>the show, you know, people are like, oh, you're all

0:36:50.400 --> 0:36:53.439
<v Speaker 1>just talking about men. I feel like that's what it was. Yes,

0:36:53.480 --> 0:36:55.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it doesn't mean that you didn't enjoy being

0:36:55.360 --> 0:36:57.000
<v Speaker 1>with your friends, but you are together with your friends

0:36:57.040 --> 0:36:59.600
<v Speaker 1>trying to figure the men out because they were confusing.

0:37:00.120 --> 0:37:02.120
<v Speaker 1>You know they still are, but you know what I mean,

0:37:02.120 --> 0:37:05.360
<v Speaker 1>they were very confusing back then because they were like

0:37:05.440 --> 0:37:08.319
<v Speaker 1>elusive and withholding and all of those things. Was just

0:37:08.360 --> 0:37:11.560
<v Speaker 1>totally normal, Right, It's all interesting. You didn't even talk

0:37:11.600 --> 0:37:12.719
<v Speaker 1>about those words back then.

0:37:12.880 --> 0:37:16.400
<v Speaker 2>Isn't that so funny? How? But it's all still so relevant.

0:37:16.440 --> 0:37:17.839
<v Speaker 2>Like when I was watching it, that's the other thing

0:37:17.880 --> 0:37:20.799
<v Speaker 2>that struck me. I was like, it is so interesting

0:37:21.320 --> 0:37:24.239
<v Speaker 2>that all the topics and I'm sure you've noticed this.

0:37:24.280 --> 0:37:26.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's so cool that you're doing the podcast

0:37:26.400 --> 0:37:29.959
<v Speaker 2>this way. I love this format of breaking it down

0:37:30.000 --> 0:37:32.640
<v Speaker 2>because you're right, there's so many things in each one

0:37:32.640 --> 0:37:34.719
<v Speaker 2>that's like a life lesson, a way to believe what's

0:37:34.719 --> 0:37:38.359
<v Speaker 2>this about? And I just think it still holds like

0:37:38.480 --> 0:37:40.160
<v Speaker 2>it does. This is crazy.

0:37:40.520 --> 0:37:43.239
<v Speaker 1>That's the writers, you know. The writers were just so

0:37:43.640 --> 0:37:47.520
<v Speaker 1>great and they took so many chances. Yes, because HBO

0:37:47.600 --> 0:37:50.759
<v Speaker 1>allowed us also, right, we didn't have focus groups, we

0:37:50.840 --> 0:37:53.120
<v Speaker 1>weren't on a network, we didn't have to worry about advertising.

0:37:53.520 --> 0:37:54.480
<v Speaker 2>You did your own things.

0:37:54.560 --> 0:37:57.919
<v Speaker 1>They let us do our thing, which was so rare, right,

0:37:58.080 --> 0:38:01.920
<v Speaker 1>so incredibly rare. But when I'm watching this particular episode

0:38:02.000 --> 0:38:04.960
<v Speaker 1>and the I guess it starts at the finale of

0:38:05.800 --> 0:38:09.439
<v Speaker 1>season four when she has the baby, because that's a huge, huge,

0:38:09.480 --> 0:38:13.719
<v Speaker 1>huge departure, right, And now all of a sudden, we've

0:38:13.719 --> 0:38:17.040
<v Speaker 1>got Anne Mirra, we've got a mother in law even

0:38:17.040 --> 0:38:18.960
<v Speaker 1>though they're not married, right, and we're going to a

0:38:19.040 --> 0:38:22.040
<v Speaker 1>church to baptize the baby, and we suddenly are in

0:38:22.120 --> 0:38:25.480
<v Speaker 1>like a like a drama. Like the music starts and

0:38:25.600 --> 0:38:26.480
<v Speaker 1>it's beautiful.

0:38:26.800 --> 0:38:30.280
<v Speaker 2>It's beautiful. And I thought it was so interesting about

0:38:30.520 --> 0:38:34.680
<v Speaker 2>you and Carrie's characters, Like your character was so upset

0:38:34.880 --> 0:38:37.200
<v Speaker 2>that she wasn't asked to be the godmin I know,

0:38:37.520 --> 0:38:39.520
<v Speaker 2>and Carrie was just sort of like, I don't know

0:38:39.560 --> 0:38:41.120
<v Speaker 2>if I want to do that another round. I'm not

0:38:41.200 --> 0:38:43.120
<v Speaker 2>sure why we're doing this. Why does she want? That's

0:38:43.160 --> 0:38:44.040
<v Speaker 2>your general thing.

0:38:44.239 --> 0:38:46.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's interesting, it's very interesting.

0:38:47.280 --> 0:38:48.560
<v Speaker 2>I know I did.

0:38:48.760 --> 0:38:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I did feel bad for Charlotte then too, because I

0:38:51.000 --> 0:38:52.960
<v Speaker 1>had forgotten, right and I'm like, oh, no, that's going

0:38:53.040 --> 0:38:55.560
<v Speaker 1>to hurt her. Yeah, you know, because Charlotte is so sensitive.

0:38:55.640 --> 0:38:57.560
<v Speaker 1>And it is one of the things that Michael Patrick

0:38:57.600 --> 0:39:00.759
<v Speaker 1>talked about when they decided to have Miranda have the

0:39:00.760 --> 0:39:04.799
<v Speaker 1>baby was that it was about trying to, you know, Charlotte.

0:39:04.840 --> 0:39:07.440
<v Speaker 1>This is what Charlotte wanted, right, the dream wedding, the

0:39:07.520 --> 0:39:10.280
<v Speaker 1>dream husband, the dream baby. But she can't get everything

0:39:10.360 --> 0:39:12.960
<v Speaker 1>she wants because that's just not how life is, right,

0:39:13.360 --> 0:39:16.440
<v Speaker 1>and so everything fill apart and she can't have children

0:39:16.480 --> 0:39:18.759
<v Speaker 1>or she has trouble having children, and so what's that

0:39:18.880 --> 0:39:20.680
<v Speaker 1>going to be? And she has to always be coming

0:39:20.760 --> 0:39:23.799
<v Speaker 1>up against that, which is what makes it interesting, right.

0:39:24.120 --> 0:39:27.879
<v Speaker 1>But then it's also you know, it's like everyone's kind

0:39:27.880 --> 0:39:31.400
<v Speaker 1>of down in a really interesting way, you know, But

0:39:31.560 --> 0:39:34.120
<v Speaker 1>yet it's also still beautiful.

0:39:34.360 --> 0:39:37.560
<v Speaker 2>It was beautiful. It was so there was something so

0:39:37.760 --> 0:39:40.120
<v Speaker 2>beautiful about it. When they were pouring the holy water

0:39:40.200 --> 0:39:42.680
<v Speaker 2>on the baby and the music and the music, and

0:39:42.719 --> 0:39:45.160
<v Speaker 2>then that scene about how the holy water kind of

0:39:45.200 --> 0:39:47.440
<v Speaker 2>hit Carrie's arm, and it was like it was just

0:39:47.600 --> 0:39:51.080
<v Speaker 2>so and she said and she made some comment about that,

0:39:51.520 --> 0:39:53.160
<v Speaker 2>you know a lot of some of this holy water

0:39:53.280 --> 0:39:55.480
<v Speaker 2>lands on me and does. But as I was watching

0:39:55.560 --> 0:40:00.400
<v Speaker 2>the whole vibe of everything, totally agree. It was just

0:40:00.440 --> 0:40:02.600
<v Speaker 2>such an like you don't, I mean, I can't. First

0:40:02.600 --> 0:40:04.279
<v Speaker 2>of all, I can't believe all these things happened in

0:40:04.320 --> 0:40:07.000
<v Speaker 2>one episode. That's the other thing that's crazy by I

0:40:07.080 --> 0:40:08.480
<v Speaker 2>was like, pack it is.

0:40:08.640 --> 0:40:11.920
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it's insane. It's insane, but okay, so let's just

0:40:11.920 --> 0:40:13.640
<v Speaker 1>go over carry a little bit. We covered a lot

0:40:13.640 --> 0:40:16.560
<v Speaker 1>of the big things, I mean, and you're right, there's

0:40:16.600 --> 0:40:18.839
<v Speaker 1>just so much that you can't even get your mind

0:40:18.880 --> 0:40:21.360
<v Speaker 1>around it or whatever. But so we go to the

0:40:21.400 --> 0:40:23.799
<v Speaker 1>self help thing and I was just so so it's

0:40:23.800 --> 0:40:26.360
<v Speaker 1>one of those times where you're because I couldn't really remember.

0:40:26.360 --> 0:40:27.719
<v Speaker 1>I remember I had to stand up and give a

0:40:27.760 --> 0:40:30.640
<v Speaker 1>speechy kind of a Charlotte thing, but I didn't remember

0:40:30.680 --> 0:40:32.480
<v Speaker 1>the gist of it. I didn't remember that lady was

0:40:32.520 --> 0:40:34.399
<v Speaker 1>going to be mean to me and how many times

0:40:34.440 --> 0:40:36.719
<v Speaker 1>have I felt that in like you go, you're going

0:40:36.760 --> 0:40:40.359
<v Speaker 1>to try to get help, and yeah, these people they

0:40:40.360 --> 0:40:43.480
<v Speaker 1>have there's like a negativity often times in these kind

0:40:43.520 --> 0:40:44.560
<v Speaker 1>of self help worlds.

0:40:44.560 --> 0:40:46.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, the fact that you stood up, your characters

0:40:46.920 --> 0:40:50.600
<v Speaker 2>stood up spoke volumes to me. It's a room full

0:40:50.640 --> 0:40:54.759
<v Speaker 2>of people, you know, you're feeling kind of weird. Think

0:40:54.760 --> 0:40:56.839
<v Speaker 2>about the courage it takes as a kid to raise

0:40:56.880 --> 0:40:59.759
<v Speaker 2>your hand in class and say the thing, especially the

0:40:59.760 --> 0:41:02.200
<v Speaker 2>thing and it's contrary to what this.

0:41:02.640 --> 0:41:04.960
<v Speaker 1>This other lady is just like, yeah, I did what

0:41:05.000 --> 0:41:06.000
<v Speaker 1>you said, and I've got.

0:41:05.800 --> 0:41:08.480
<v Speaker 2>It all and I got my husband in all but

0:41:08.520 --> 0:41:13.840
<v Speaker 2>in two days, like okay, and so to have the courage,

0:41:13.920 --> 0:41:16.960
<v Speaker 2>which the thing that spoke to me was you ever

0:41:17.080 --> 0:41:18.919
<v Speaker 2>do you ever see The Dead Poets Society that movie?

0:41:19.320 --> 0:41:20.959
<v Speaker 2>Do you remember when he stands up on the desk

0:41:21.000 --> 0:41:24.160
<v Speaker 2>and says, a captain my conct So I always think

0:41:24.200 --> 0:41:26.520
<v Speaker 2>about that, like what does it take to stand up?

0:41:27.400 --> 0:41:29.480
<v Speaker 2>To be the first one to stand up, not the

0:41:29.520 --> 0:41:32.839
<v Speaker 2>second or the third, the one who says I'm going

0:41:32.920 --> 0:41:35.800
<v Speaker 2>to risk it. I'm standing on this desk, I'm talking

0:41:35.840 --> 0:41:38.520
<v Speaker 2>to everybody. I could go down and I don't care

0:41:38.520 --> 0:41:42.120
<v Speaker 2>if I'm all alone. It's like that feeling. And when

0:41:42.160 --> 0:41:45.360
<v Speaker 2>you when your character stood up there in that moment

0:41:45.560 --> 0:41:48.680
<v Speaker 2>and knew, I'm sure like you picture heart pounding, palm

0:41:48.719 --> 0:41:51.560
<v Speaker 2>sweating saying the thing. And then when she gave you

0:41:51.640 --> 0:41:54.440
<v Speaker 2>the cheerleading speech after you said I had everything and

0:41:54.480 --> 0:41:56.319
<v Speaker 2>I lost everything. I don't think it's coming. And then

0:41:56.320 --> 0:41:58.239
<v Speaker 2>she gave you the speech of like, nope, just keep

0:41:58.280 --> 0:42:02.120
<v Speaker 2>on going, and you're like, actually, even more, it wasn't

0:42:02.160 --> 0:42:04.320
<v Speaker 2>like you went, thank you, sit down.

0:42:04.160 --> 0:42:06.239
<v Speaker 1>And I thought she might because I didn't remember what

0:42:06.320 --> 0:42:08.840
<v Speaker 1>I did right, because she's a people pleaser.

0:42:08.600 --> 0:42:11.320
<v Speaker 2>That's exactly right, and I didn't. And so many women,

0:42:11.520 --> 0:42:15.080
<v Speaker 2>I think, are the kind who were like, I'm not

0:42:15.120 --> 0:42:18.200
<v Speaker 2>going to say anything. Maybe someone else will say the thing, right,

0:42:18.320 --> 0:42:20.040
<v Speaker 2>you know, and then I'll say, oh, yeah, I felt

0:42:20.080 --> 0:42:23.120
<v Speaker 2>that too. I don't have the gots to stand up

0:42:23.160 --> 0:42:25.040
<v Speaker 2>and actually say it myself, but I think it spoke

0:42:25.080 --> 0:42:29.360
<v Speaker 2>a lot about your character. And then when it was

0:42:29.560 --> 0:42:32.680
<v Speaker 2>over your portion, and then Carrie jumps in and so

0:42:32.920 --> 0:42:35.799
<v Speaker 2>she gives an extra swing and says, no, she did

0:42:36.040 --> 0:42:39.840
<v Speaker 2>she Hey, she did. She tried. The woman's like, no,

0:42:40.000 --> 0:42:44.040
<v Speaker 2>not hard enough, you know, but you felt the friendship

0:42:44.200 --> 0:42:46.640
<v Speaker 2>and the courage and the bravery and all the things.

0:42:46.800 --> 0:42:49.719
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely when you're weak, when you're both weak in a

0:42:49.760 --> 0:42:52.239
<v Speaker 2>weak state, right, and to be able to do that

0:42:52.360 --> 0:42:53.680
<v Speaker 2>is pretty cool. I agree.

0:42:53.719 --> 0:42:55.560
<v Speaker 1>It was great and I hadn't remembered it, but it

0:42:55.600 --> 0:42:57.160
<v Speaker 1>was so good. And it's just one episode.

0:42:57.200 --> 0:42:57.359
<v Speaker 2>Yah.

0:42:57.360 --> 0:43:00.560
<v Speaker 1>It's also the shot. Wow, I know we were just

0:43:00.640 --> 0:43:03.720
<v Speaker 1>firing on all Cylanders at this point. Yes. So then

0:43:04.000 --> 0:43:06.480
<v Speaker 1>then we so back to the book part for Carrie,

0:43:06.480 --> 0:43:09.080
<v Speaker 1>which is also so funny because we know later on

0:43:09.200 --> 0:43:11.919
<v Speaker 1>she writes multiple books, right, and like, you know, it's

0:43:12.000 --> 0:43:15.279
<v Speaker 1>interesting to see. I had forgotten how we kind of

0:43:15.320 --> 0:43:16.520
<v Speaker 1>track along with her in.

0:43:16.480 --> 0:43:17.759
<v Speaker 2>The show, right.

0:43:17.840 --> 0:43:20.439
<v Speaker 1>But also the show is based on Kansas's book, which

0:43:20.560 --> 0:43:23.040
<v Speaker 1>was from her column and a paper. It's all really

0:43:23.160 --> 0:43:26.200
<v Speaker 1>so interesting. And then obviously we make it into the show,

0:43:26.320 --> 0:43:28.359
<v Speaker 1>and then at some point they talked to carry about

0:43:28.400 --> 0:43:32.319
<v Speaker 1>making it into a movie, but they talk about it.

0:43:32.320 --> 0:43:35.080
<v Speaker 1>It's all very interesting. Meta is kind of meta, right everything,

0:43:35.360 --> 0:43:36.800
<v Speaker 1>And when all of a sudden we see Molly and

0:43:36.840 --> 0:43:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Amy Sedaris there just cracks me out.

0:43:39.200 --> 0:43:42.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, those two are those those two just sitting next

0:43:42.480 --> 0:43:44.040
<v Speaker 2>to each other. I was laughing before.

0:43:44.080 --> 0:43:46.280
<v Speaker 1>They so fantastic I know, so fantastic.

0:43:46.280 --> 0:43:48.799
<v Speaker 2>I believed. I believed every single too, me too.

0:43:49.040 --> 0:43:51.040
<v Speaker 1>And then Molly went on to be on Divorce with

0:43:51.080 --> 0:43:53.440
<v Speaker 1>Sarah or her show that she did after an HBO,

0:43:53.560 --> 0:43:55.319
<v Speaker 1>and Amy's one of her best friends, and we see

0:43:55.360 --> 0:43:58.040
<v Speaker 1>them all the time, which we love, we love them.

0:43:58.120 --> 0:44:00.240
<v Speaker 1>It's so wonderful to have those.

0:44:00.440 --> 0:44:04.320
<v Speaker 2>I just think Amy period is like incredible gold.

0:44:04.480 --> 0:44:09.200
<v Speaker 1>She is just such a unique human being in all

0:44:09.280 --> 0:44:09.720
<v Speaker 1>the ways.

0:44:09.960 --> 0:44:12.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she's been on the Today Show many times and

0:44:12.239 --> 0:44:16.840
<v Speaker 2>I can't remember what she was doing she crack. I

0:44:16.880 --> 0:44:19.080
<v Speaker 2>just remember laughing. I don't remember what she did.

0:44:19.160 --> 0:44:21.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh, she's funny, doesn't matter what she does. I agree,

0:44:21.840 --> 0:44:24.520
<v Speaker 1>I agree, I agree. I've seen her in her off time,

0:44:24.560 --> 0:44:27.480
<v Speaker 1>so sometimes she's not funny, which is also interesting.

0:44:28.120 --> 0:44:31.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm always thrown by comedians who aren't funny in the moment,

0:44:31.640 --> 0:44:34.240
<v Speaker 2>even though how can they possibly be? But of course,

0:44:34.280 --> 0:44:35.880
<v Speaker 2>and I'm sure I always think about that when I'm

0:44:35.920 --> 0:44:38.319
<v Speaker 2>interviewing a comedian like I wonder how hard it is

0:44:38.960 --> 0:44:42.640
<v Speaker 2>to always think, now, do the thing again, you have

0:44:42.719 --> 0:44:46.120
<v Speaker 2>to see. I just interviewed Seth Myers for Art for

0:44:46.280 --> 0:44:49.040
<v Speaker 2>the podcast, and I thought, I mean, he was so

0:44:49.200 --> 0:44:52.680
<v Speaker 2>naturally hilarious. But I was wondering if every time they

0:44:52.719 --> 0:44:57.839
<v Speaker 2>sit down, it's like, Okay, I can't be just the

0:44:57.840 --> 0:45:00.279
<v Speaker 2>older I am at home. I can't just be the

0:45:00.280 --> 0:45:03.120
<v Speaker 2>guy who you know sits and then you know, plays

0:45:03.200 --> 0:45:05.640
<v Speaker 2>my cat. I gotta I gotta turn the lights on,

0:45:05.920 --> 0:45:07.600
<v Speaker 2>I gotta throw yeah.

0:45:07.960 --> 0:45:10.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, But I also think, and I don't know him

0:45:10.840 --> 0:45:12.719
<v Speaker 1>well enough to know, but I also think there is

0:45:12.760 --> 0:45:16.560
<v Speaker 1>the thing too, where like if they don't have that,

0:45:16.920 --> 0:45:18.400
<v Speaker 1>then they're really unhappy.

0:45:18.440 --> 0:45:21.319
<v Speaker 2>Also, right, like they need they need they need it,

0:45:21.760 --> 0:45:23.040
<v Speaker 2>right they do, Yeah, they do.

0:45:23.239 --> 0:45:26.720
<v Speaker 1>It's interesting. Now, it's interesting. I mean, I'm sure their wives,

0:45:26.920 --> 0:45:29.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, we should ask their wives what goes on?

0:45:30.840 --> 0:45:34.040
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's talk about we talked about Charlotte. I

0:45:34.360 --> 0:45:36.720
<v Speaker 1>mean I had forgotten all this. I forgot about Charlotte

0:45:36.719 --> 0:45:39.600
<v Speaker 1>and Carrie sitting there in the cold. Whenever we would

0:45:39.600 --> 0:45:42.040
<v Speaker 1>come back to work, it'd be February, and in this

0:45:42.080 --> 0:45:43.520
<v Speaker 1>particular episode, it's wet.

0:45:43.719 --> 0:45:47.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I did notice. I noticed that you guys

0:45:47.000 --> 0:45:47.959
<v Speaker 2>were breathing.

0:45:49.000 --> 0:45:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Because there's nothing you can do.

0:45:50.680 --> 0:45:53.480
<v Speaker 2>No, And by the way, how do you not appear

0:45:53.600 --> 0:45:56.480
<v Speaker 2>like I cannot be cold? I cannot be in the cold,

0:45:57.080 --> 0:45:58.280
<v Speaker 2>look like it I agree.

0:45:58.480 --> 0:46:01.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm always cold and it would be very sore.

0:46:02.960 --> 0:46:05.800
<v Speaker 1>I remember when we were sitting there doing that scene.

0:46:06.719 --> 0:46:09.560
<v Speaker 1>I I think, and I could be wrong. I think

0:46:09.640 --> 0:46:12.759
<v Speaker 1>Sarah Juska is already pregnant, but I think no one knew,

0:46:12.800 --> 0:46:15.399
<v Speaker 1>but I knew, and I was really worried about her

0:46:15.880 --> 0:46:18.920
<v Speaker 1>because it was so bloody cold, yes, and I didn't

0:46:18.920 --> 0:46:22.320
<v Speaker 1>think she was wearing a warm enough coat because sometimes

0:46:22.360 --> 0:46:24.439
<v Speaker 1>we would do our fittings, we'd have our whole outfit plant,

0:46:24.440 --> 0:46:27.560
<v Speaker 1>but we wouldn't put the cold into the equation, right,

0:46:27.840 --> 0:46:30.080
<v Speaker 1>And then sometimes Pat would have coats in case it

0:46:30.200 --> 0:46:32.200
<v Speaker 1>was cold, right, And I was like, you know, she's

0:46:32.200 --> 0:46:33.920
<v Speaker 1>got to get a better coat. But she didn't want

0:46:33.920 --> 0:46:35.840
<v Speaker 1>anyone to know, so I couldn't make a big fuss.

0:46:35.880 --> 0:46:37.080
<v Speaker 2>So you were like, you're good.

0:46:37.640 --> 0:46:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Right, But but I was likeal cot coat because you

0:46:40.600 --> 0:46:42.359
<v Speaker 1>know when when you're acting and they have the coats

0:46:42.400 --> 0:46:44.040
<v Speaker 1>that they run in with what you do on the

0:46:44.080 --> 0:46:46.040
<v Speaker 1>Today Show too, and you had to go out because

0:46:46.080 --> 0:46:49.480
<v Speaker 1>sometimes it was bloody cold there. Okay, I remember that,

0:46:49.719 --> 0:46:51.480
<v Speaker 1>but you could wear a coat, but like sometimes they

0:46:51.480 --> 0:46:54.440
<v Speaker 1>bring an extra coat, right, That's what it was when

0:46:54.480 --> 0:46:57.240
<v Speaker 1>you're acting, right, when they all cut. They our dressers

0:46:57.239 --> 0:46:59.359
<v Speaker 1>would run in with coats and like, bundle us up,

0:46:59.640 --> 0:47:01.319
<v Speaker 1>but then to take it back off and you try

0:47:01.320 --> 0:47:01.960
<v Speaker 1>not for shatter.

0:47:02.360 --> 0:47:05.480
<v Speaker 2>You're like, maybe just not bring the coat exactly.

0:47:05.000 --> 0:47:06.560
<v Speaker 1>But then are you going to get sick?

0:47:06.640 --> 0:47:06.799
<v Speaker 2>Right?

0:47:06.880 --> 0:47:08.320
<v Speaker 1>You don't want to get sick. And then because I

0:47:08.360 --> 0:47:12.160
<v Speaker 1>knew she was pregnant, thank you, thank you well. That's

0:47:12.160 --> 0:47:14.040
<v Speaker 1>what was also funny is that there's a couple of

0:47:14.040 --> 0:47:16.520
<v Speaker 1>references in here to Sir Jusica not being maternal. She's

0:47:16.560 --> 0:47:20.040
<v Speaker 1>so maternal, but Carrie is not her, which is impossible

0:47:20.080 --> 0:47:24.080
<v Speaker 1>to remember, right. But I also I love the what

0:47:24.120 --> 0:47:28.800
<v Speaker 1>they're building in about who women are at different times

0:47:28.800 --> 0:47:32.560
<v Speaker 1>in their lives. And then your friends start getting married.

0:47:32.320 --> 0:47:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Or having children or whatever.

0:47:34.120 --> 0:47:36.520
<v Speaker 1>How do you deal with that? Why did your relationship?

0:47:37.040 --> 0:47:39.799
<v Speaker 1>It's very interesting and it's interesting to look back on

0:47:39.840 --> 0:47:43.040
<v Speaker 1>because obviously a lot has happened since then in our lives, right,

0:47:43.600 --> 0:47:46.480
<v Speaker 1>But I think they did it really well. And there's

0:47:46.480 --> 0:47:48.440
<v Speaker 1>always that time where someone hands you their baby and

0:47:48.440 --> 0:47:51.319
<v Speaker 1>you're like, oh my god, I know I know.

0:47:51.280 --> 0:47:53.600
<v Speaker 2>You saw her holding so she was she pregnant? Then?

0:47:53.800 --> 0:47:55.880
<v Speaker 1>I think so, I think she was early pregnant.

0:47:55.960 --> 0:47:59.240
<v Speaker 2>I was just hoping crazy working out baby.

0:47:59.040 --> 0:48:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Yes, but so much stepth you know in there, And

0:48:04.520 --> 0:48:07.399
<v Speaker 1>I love it. I think that's so real to how

0:48:07.480 --> 0:48:09.920
<v Speaker 1>life is right, like you don't even necessarily know how

0:48:09.960 --> 0:48:10.600
<v Speaker 1>you feel.

0:48:10.360 --> 0:48:13.240
<v Speaker 2>About it all. Yeah, you know, right, and then suddenly

0:48:13.239 --> 0:48:16.759
<v Speaker 2>you're thrust into that situation. You're like, Okay, how do

0:48:16.840 --> 0:48:18.719
<v Speaker 2>I feel? Is this right? Does this feel like the

0:48:18.800 --> 0:48:21.160
<v Speaker 2>right thing? Exactly? Exactly? I love that.

0:48:21.320 --> 0:48:23.520
<v Speaker 1>So I had forgotten about this whole thing that I've

0:48:23.640 --> 0:48:26.279
<v Speaker 1>drugg carry out there to look at men and who

0:48:26.320 --> 0:48:27.120
<v Speaker 1>would we sleep with?

0:48:27.160 --> 0:48:27.840
<v Speaker 2>How insane?

0:48:28.320 --> 0:48:29.240
<v Speaker 1>It's so funny.

0:48:29.280 --> 0:48:32.239
<v Speaker 2>It was hilarious, and you were like, she had like

0:48:32.480 --> 0:48:36.840
<v Speaker 2>zero I know I had so many one on earth.

0:48:47.800 --> 0:48:49.880
<v Speaker 1>And then of course her book editor comes tells her, no,

0:48:49.960 --> 0:48:51.680
<v Speaker 1>he's not going to fire her. He wants to write book,

0:48:51.680 --> 0:48:55.879
<v Speaker 1>which is great. And then there's the affirmation thing which

0:48:55.880 --> 0:48:57.919
<v Speaker 1>we went through. Doctor Cheryl was her name.

0:48:58.320 --> 0:48:58.920
<v Speaker 2>Hysterical.

0:48:59.080 --> 0:49:01.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I need to find from the writers who who

0:49:02.120 --> 0:49:02.480
<v Speaker 1>she was?

0:49:03.239 --> 0:49:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Right? But she was perfect. She was perfect because they're

0:49:06.520 --> 0:49:11.120
<v Speaker 2>kind of a little scary. And also that fake cheerleady.

0:49:10.920 --> 0:49:14.399
<v Speaker 1>I know I know it there right now, who are

0:49:14.480 --> 0:49:14.759
<v Speaker 1>like this?

0:49:15.040 --> 0:49:15.680
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what I mean?

0:49:18.200 --> 0:49:20.680
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying, don't you Yeah, you're like, I'm.

0:49:20.560 --> 0:49:23.120
<v Speaker 2>Listened to me, I know, and I'm like, look deeper,

0:49:23.160 --> 0:49:24.919
<v Speaker 2>you guys, yeah you know. Yeah.

0:49:25.280 --> 0:49:27.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm not saying that people aren't giving something

0:49:27.600 --> 0:49:31.160
<v Speaker 1>that's useful, but I think that when they get too big,

0:49:31.520 --> 0:49:36.960
<v Speaker 1>sometimes that does happen. There's a little something that's interesting, right, Yeah,

0:49:37.400 --> 0:49:38.120
<v Speaker 1>it is interesting.

0:49:38.160 --> 0:49:40.960
<v Speaker 2>That is it's like you're right when you discover some

0:49:40.960 --> 0:49:43.680
<v Speaker 2>somebody kind of on Like I'm a big like I

0:49:43.719 --> 0:49:46.240
<v Speaker 2>love a Ted talk. I'm like, let me. Yeah, talks

0:49:46.280 --> 0:49:49.840
<v Speaker 2>are great, eighteen minutes long. Yeah, you're not going to

0:49:49.920 --> 0:49:52.239
<v Speaker 2>be bored, and it can be totally inspired and they

0:49:52.239 --> 0:49:54.799
<v Speaker 2>seem authentic and real, Yes, and I think they are.

0:49:55.320 --> 0:49:58.360
<v Speaker 1>I think it's what happens later, Yes, that things might go.

0:49:58.280 --> 0:50:01.080
<v Speaker 2>Yes, you know what I mean, right, because you adjust

0:50:01.280 --> 0:50:04.359
<v Speaker 2>for your audience and then you change and then you know,

0:50:04.560 --> 0:50:06.000
<v Speaker 2>they need to monetize, And so.

0:50:06.120 --> 0:50:08.239
<v Speaker 1>I think the need to monetize is the thing that

0:50:08.440 --> 0:50:11.680
<v Speaker 1>leads up to some wackiness, right, because how can you

0:50:11.800 --> 0:50:15.080
<v Speaker 1>monetize if you're not pretending to have all the answers? Yes,

0:50:15.320 --> 0:50:17.640
<v Speaker 1>And I think that anyone who's pretending to have all

0:50:17.680 --> 0:50:19.080
<v Speaker 1>the answers.

0:50:19.200 --> 0:50:22.600
<v Speaker 2>Right, and plus nobody likes them in the end anyway.

0:50:22.760 --> 0:50:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I know, it's a it's a limited thing. It's interesting though,

0:50:26.239 --> 0:50:29.680
<v Speaker 1>because I feel like, especially currently where I think like

0:50:29.719 --> 0:50:31.840
<v Speaker 1>things are kind of just upside down or whatever, and

0:50:31.880 --> 0:50:36.960
<v Speaker 1>people really need something to follow and you know, help

0:50:37.160 --> 0:50:41.920
<v Speaker 1>like to feel some sensitive point control or or better

0:50:42.000 --> 0:50:45.240
<v Speaker 1>or whatever, and they maybe are drawn to some people

0:50:45.239 --> 0:50:46.480
<v Speaker 1>who maybe are I don't.

0:50:46.360 --> 0:50:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Know, that's interesting right when you are lost, it's interesting

0:50:50.320 --> 0:50:51.440
<v Speaker 2>who you'll follow.

0:50:51.520 --> 0:50:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, And I mean I do think there's probably

0:50:53.760 --> 0:50:56.960
<v Speaker 1>something a kernel in everything that's helpful, right, But then

0:50:57.000 --> 0:50:59.640
<v Speaker 1>it gets to be too you know, it's like it

0:50:59.680 --> 0:51:03.880
<v Speaker 1>grows past the point of the original idea. I don't know.

0:51:04.480 --> 0:51:04.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

0:51:04.920 --> 0:51:06.640
<v Speaker 1>You're in this field. You're going to figure it all

0:51:06.680 --> 0:51:11.719
<v Speaker 1>out for us Monday, Okay. I really want to talk

0:51:11.760 --> 0:51:14.840
<v Speaker 1>about the Miranda storyline, because I also have totally forgotten

0:51:14.840 --> 0:51:17.800
<v Speaker 1>that this is when Anne shows up when the baby

0:51:17.840 --> 0:51:20.640
<v Speaker 1>gets baptized, which I'd also forgot about because she's not

0:51:20.680 --> 0:51:24.319
<v Speaker 1>even religious, right, and it makes so many jokes about it.

0:51:24.320 --> 0:51:26.480
<v Speaker 2>I know. And then Carrie was like, look, I don't

0:51:26.480 --> 0:51:29.919
<v Speaker 2>even know what I believe, and she and Miranda thought

0:51:29.920 --> 0:51:32.760
<v Speaker 2>a very poignant moment was like when Miranda says to her,

0:51:33.280 --> 0:51:35.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what I believe, but I believe in you. Yeah,

0:51:35.560 --> 0:51:38.399
<v Speaker 2>And it was like you're like, oh, okay, then you're

0:51:38.440 --> 0:51:41.799
<v Speaker 2>the godmother. Yeah, and how about that weird godfather? I

0:51:41.880 --> 0:51:44.080
<v Speaker 2>know what on our god? Who was he? Oh?

0:51:44.160 --> 0:51:47.000
<v Speaker 1>My god, I don't know and we should find out.

0:51:47.280 --> 0:51:49.480
<v Speaker 1>And also like are we going to see him again?

0:51:49.880 --> 0:51:51.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think what's happening? And I need to

0:51:51.600 --> 0:51:54.160
<v Speaker 1>find out for Michael Patrick because Michael Patrick's very Catholic.

0:51:54.280 --> 0:51:54.480
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:51:54.840 --> 0:51:58.400
<v Speaker 1>What I felt was we opened the door to Catholicism

0:51:58.760 --> 0:52:03.360
<v Speaker 1>and it came in all of the relatives and every things,

0:52:03.560 --> 0:52:05.799
<v Speaker 1>which I'm sure are people in his life like that.

0:52:05.880 --> 0:52:06.520
<v Speaker 2>I felt they.

0:52:06.400 --> 0:52:09.759
<v Speaker 1>Were so interesting. I have to find out if that's

0:52:09.760 --> 0:52:12.000
<v Speaker 1>true or not. But that's what I felt because we

0:52:12.160 --> 0:52:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I do feel like just.

0:52:13.080 --> 0:52:15.560
<v Speaker 2>The whole other thing happened, yes, and the.

0:52:15.600 --> 0:52:19.120
<v Speaker 1>Music it's so beautiful, but also they kept saying they

0:52:19.120 --> 0:52:21.640
<v Speaker 1>don't believe in it, but it's still so beautiful. I

0:52:21.680 --> 0:52:23.960
<v Speaker 1>think this is Michael Patrick's feelings.

0:52:24.080 --> 0:52:27.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's so interesting. Yeah, I mean, working with such

0:52:27.800 --> 0:52:29.080
<v Speaker 2>a genius guy.

0:52:29.520 --> 0:52:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's pretty amazing.

0:52:31.480 --> 0:52:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Cool. I mean because usually you know, like I don't

0:52:35.000 --> 0:52:38.120
<v Speaker 2>know with any any project or anything you work on.

0:52:38.680 --> 0:52:41.480
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes you peel back the layers and there's really nothing there. Right.

0:52:41.840 --> 0:52:43.759
<v Speaker 2>We didn't really think it through. It's just like here

0:52:43.800 --> 0:52:46.440
<v Speaker 2>it is to do that. That does, but this is not

0:52:46.560 --> 0:52:50.440
<v Speaker 2>that like every piece is connected to something.

0:52:50.719 --> 0:52:53.600
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it's true, and I mean sometimes it's not him. Right,

0:52:53.680 --> 0:52:56.399
<v Speaker 1>Like we have these incredible women Jenny Bakes, Cindy Shoe

0:52:56.440 --> 0:52:59.440
<v Speaker 1>Backgar executive producer writers who had Jenny had come in

0:52:59.480 --> 0:53:03.279
<v Speaker 1>for season. Syndey comes second season and they escalate, you know,

0:53:03.320 --> 0:53:05.680
<v Speaker 1>they get like co executive producer credit. By the end,

0:53:05.719 --> 0:53:09.200
<v Speaker 1>they all got stolen away with big deals the networks.

0:53:09.239 --> 0:53:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Like they became this like wow, super desirable.

0:53:11.800 --> 0:53:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:53:12.000 --> 0:53:13.360
<v Speaker 1>We were so sad to see them go. But on

0:53:13.400 --> 0:53:15.080
<v Speaker 1>the other hand, we were so happy for them.

0:53:15.320 --> 0:53:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Right, like you know that, yeah that's awesome.

0:53:17.280 --> 0:53:20.520
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, they all got got like poached out from us.

0:53:20.719 --> 0:53:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

0:53:21.160 --> 0:53:26.520
<v Speaker 1>It was really slightly traumatic, but also would also you know, yeah,

0:53:26.680 --> 0:53:29.239
<v Speaker 1>definitely cool. It was really cool because they had both

0:53:29.320 --> 0:53:31.920
<v Speaker 1>just started as just regular writers and then they just

0:53:32.000 --> 0:53:33.960
<v Speaker 1>put more and more of themselves into it and like

0:53:34.040 --> 0:53:37.560
<v Speaker 1>all these the dating stories were the female writers' stories.

0:53:37.560 --> 0:53:38.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh, they were.

0:53:38.320 --> 0:53:40.439
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they had to be either their stories or someone

0:53:40.520 --> 0:53:42.719
<v Speaker 1>they knew story, or they didn't put it in the show.

0:53:43.520 --> 0:53:44.239
<v Speaker 2>Why was that just?

0:53:44.440 --> 0:53:47.719
<v Speaker 1>They wanted to be real, believable, authentic. Yes, And so

0:53:48.160 --> 0:53:49.799
<v Speaker 1>it's fun to have them on and say like, well,

0:53:49.800 --> 0:53:50.560
<v Speaker 1>where did this come from?

0:53:50.600 --> 0:53:51.040
<v Speaker 2>Where did that come?

0:53:51.120 --> 0:53:52.439
<v Speaker 1>There's always some fascinating story.

0:53:52.480 --> 0:53:54.000
<v Speaker 2>By the way, that's cool. I didn't know that either.

0:53:55.239 --> 0:53:57.279
<v Speaker 1>Great they thought everyone thought it was our story. That

0:53:57.320 --> 0:53:59.800
<v Speaker 1>would be insane. You can't act your own story.

0:54:00.040 --> 0:54:01.080
<v Speaker 2>It's weird, you.

0:54:01.040 --> 0:54:03.720
<v Speaker 1>Know, we'd be like self conscious. No, it's much easier

0:54:03.719 --> 0:54:04.880
<v Speaker 1>when it's other people's stories.

0:54:05.120 --> 0:54:05.640
<v Speaker 2>But with the.

0:54:05.560 --> 0:54:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Catholic thing, I'm sure it's Michael. But then the other things.

0:54:09.120 --> 0:54:12.319
<v Speaker 1>None of them have babies yet. In Life Rights we

0:54:12.360 --> 0:54:15.080
<v Speaker 1>were all yeah. But I mean like even like the writers,

0:54:15.080 --> 0:54:17.279
<v Speaker 1>no one had to be because we were working all

0:54:17.320 --> 0:54:21.480
<v Speaker 1>the time. Right, So I think it's like sisters, babies, friends, babies,

0:54:21.960 --> 0:54:24.719
<v Speaker 1>things like that right where there, And that's why they're

0:54:24.800 --> 0:54:26.680
<v Speaker 1>the carry You don't trying to say.

0:54:27.520 --> 0:54:29.440
<v Speaker 2>They're kind of like, I don't know how to do.

0:54:30.960 --> 0:54:33.279
<v Speaker 2>What do I have to offer? You know what I'm saying.

0:54:33.320 --> 0:54:34.759
<v Speaker 1>I think that was their experience.

0:54:34.800 --> 0:54:37.759
<v Speaker 2>That's interesting, right, because no one has No one was

0:54:37.800 --> 0:54:39.680
<v Speaker 2>going down that road yet. No, we were at work

0:54:39.680 --> 0:54:40.239
<v Speaker 2>all the time.

0:54:40.400 --> 0:54:43.480
<v Speaker 1>We were I mean, Cynthia had a baby before we

0:54:43.520 --> 0:54:47.239
<v Speaker 1>ever started and was just handled it amazingly. And then

0:54:47.360 --> 0:54:49.400
<v Speaker 1>she's about to have another baby, and Sarah's about to

0:54:49.400 --> 0:54:51.120
<v Speaker 1>have her first baby. Got it, which is why the

0:54:51.160 --> 0:54:54.200
<v Speaker 1>fifth season ends up being very short because we think

0:54:54.200 --> 0:54:56.759
<v Speaker 1>we can hide the pregnancy, but we cannot do it. No,

0:54:57.200 --> 0:55:01.000
<v Speaker 1>her shadow, she would be all dress because she's so tiny,

0:55:01.080 --> 0:55:03.560
<v Speaker 1>right that there was just this bump like a basketball

0:55:03.600 --> 0:55:06.239
<v Speaker 1>was under there, whatever, and they would camouflage it, and

0:55:06.280 --> 0:55:09.800
<v Speaker 1>then her shadow on the street would have the bump.

0:55:10.560 --> 0:55:10.680
<v Speaker 2>Like.

0:55:10.719 --> 0:55:14.839
<v Speaker 1>That's when we were like, oh, the gig is up up.

0:55:15.239 --> 0:55:15.560
<v Speaker 2>I know what.

0:55:15.600 --> 0:55:17.960
<v Speaker 1>We did our best. We did our best, but this

0:55:18.080 --> 0:55:20.840
<v Speaker 1>is about to happen it or I think there's early

0:55:20.880 --> 0:55:22.879
<v Speaker 1>pregnancy and no one knew that is what I think

0:55:22.960 --> 0:55:25.000
<v Speaker 1>at this point. I know, and I'm just happy that

0:55:25.040 --> 0:55:26.000
<v Speaker 1>it all worked out.

0:55:26.120 --> 0:55:26.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god.

0:55:26.800 --> 0:55:30.040
<v Speaker 1>And then Samantha storyline, so this is the craziness with Richard,

0:55:30.480 --> 0:55:33.400
<v Speaker 1>which you know, I had not realized that Richard stays

0:55:33.440 --> 0:55:36.200
<v Speaker 1>for so long. It's interesting.

0:55:36.680 --> 0:55:40.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, it showed that storyline was so interesting to me too,

0:55:40.920 --> 0:55:47.040
<v Speaker 2>because it showed you that these powerful women like Samantha

0:55:47.600 --> 0:55:51.640
<v Speaker 2>is with a guy who was a you know, cheater

0:55:51.800 --> 0:55:53.839
<v Speaker 2>or what, not good enough for her, not good enough

0:55:53.880 --> 0:55:57.560
<v Speaker 2>for her, No, and still somehow she was desperate for

0:55:57.680 --> 0:56:02.920
<v Speaker 2>him and you know he it's just every there. Anyone

0:56:02.920 --> 0:56:06.360
<v Speaker 2>who's ever been cheated on in their life knows the

0:56:06.400 --> 0:56:10.000
<v Speaker 2>feeling and then the apology and then the big present

0:56:10.239 --> 0:56:17.719
<v Speaker 2>and I'm so maybe but no, and deep down you wonder, right,

0:56:17.760 --> 0:56:20.600
<v Speaker 2>can you live with that playing out in your head?

0:56:21.200 --> 0:56:25.160
<v Speaker 2>But I was so because you know the idea of

0:56:25.440 --> 0:56:27.759
<v Speaker 2>is he cheating or is it in my head? You know? Yes,

0:56:27.880 --> 0:56:31.200
<v Speaker 2>that's another you know, she kept seeing women and then

0:56:31.280 --> 0:56:35.520
<v Speaker 2>wondering like, right, you know, it's horrible. It's horrible. If anyone,

0:56:35.600 --> 0:56:39.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure lots of people who are listening have had

0:56:39.200 --> 0:56:42.759
<v Speaker 2>an experience where you know there's been infidelity, it's like

0:56:43.200 --> 0:56:46.040
<v Speaker 2>you feel like when you know, you know, but sometimes

0:56:46.200 --> 0:56:48.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, a man could be very convincing. Now, that's

0:56:48.560 --> 0:56:50.440
<v Speaker 2>wasn't how it happened. That wasn't how it went down.

0:56:50.520 --> 0:56:52.359
<v Speaker 2>I mean, what are you thinking? You know? And then

0:56:52.400 --> 0:56:55.200
<v Speaker 2>you start questioning and you're saying to yourself, oh well,

0:56:56.239 --> 0:56:58.960
<v Speaker 2>but anyway, it was so interesting how to your friend

0:56:59.000 --> 0:57:01.799
<v Speaker 2>the friend group was like I hated him. It was good. Yeah,

0:57:02.080 --> 0:57:02.680
<v Speaker 2>I liked it.

0:57:02.840 --> 0:57:05.440
<v Speaker 1>And also it's so weird and interesting to me that

0:57:05.480 --> 0:57:06.200
<v Speaker 1>they had him.

0:57:06.200 --> 0:57:08.560
<v Speaker 2>Who's this super powerful worldly guy.

0:57:08.719 --> 0:57:11.680
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, no, like Samantha's equal in so many ways. Right,

0:57:12.239 --> 0:57:14.920
<v Speaker 1>and then he's saying he got scared, yeah, which is

0:57:14.960 --> 0:57:18.600
<v Speaker 1>such a normally I guess it's not just a female thing.

0:57:19.000 --> 0:57:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to think now, but like, and then he

0:57:21.200 --> 0:57:23.520
<v Speaker 1>comes up with the baptism and tells Miranda like, oh,

0:57:23.560 --> 0:57:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I was I was scared.

0:57:25.120 --> 0:57:27.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean really really sure, I know. And Miranda's like,

0:57:28.040 --> 0:57:33.480
<v Speaker 2>I believe I was scared. That's why I cheated, Right, Okay,

0:57:33.560 --> 0:57:36.360
<v Speaker 2>you gotta come up with something better, right, I know,

0:57:36.720 --> 0:57:36.920
<v Speaker 2>I know.

0:57:36.960 --> 0:57:39.200
<v Speaker 1>And it's also it's not like let's say Samantha was

0:57:39.240 --> 0:57:40.720
<v Speaker 1>like we have to get married. Like let's say she

0:57:40.720 --> 0:57:44.240
<v Speaker 1>suddenly suddenly became Charlotte. Right then you can see that

0:57:44.320 --> 0:57:48.840
<v Speaker 1>he might have some fear of impulse to run or whatever,

0:57:48.880 --> 0:57:50.840
<v Speaker 1>but there's not that it's bizarre.

0:57:51.160 --> 0:57:52.240
<v Speaker 2>I was just like, WHOA, I.

0:57:52.160 --> 0:57:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Don't remember any of this, and it's kind of interesting.

0:57:55.280 --> 0:57:57.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, and I think this her dead sprint up the

0:57:57.400 --> 0:58:01.720
<v Speaker 2>stairs to catch him in the act. And if you've

0:58:01.800 --> 0:58:05.400
<v Speaker 2>ever thought your significant other is cheating and you're like

0:58:05.480 --> 0:58:09.240
<v Speaker 2>about to jump in there, you know that the fear

0:58:09.280 --> 0:58:11.720
<v Speaker 2>in the beginning, it's like, oh my god, everything, this

0:58:11.840 --> 0:58:14.360
<v Speaker 2>is it. It's happening right now. And for her run

0:58:14.360 --> 0:58:16.320
<v Speaker 2>in the door, swing the door open, and he's there,

0:58:16.440 --> 0:58:19.320
<v Speaker 2>clickety clacking on his computer, looking at her like she's crazy.

0:58:20.000 --> 0:58:22.080
<v Speaker 2>And so then you're like, well, maybe was she a

0:58:22.080 --> 0:58:25.440
<v Speaker 2>look crazy? And then when she leaves the room and

0:58:25.480 --> 0:58:30.000
<v Speaker 2>you watch that same you know, housekeeper with the boobs

0:58:30.040 --> 0:58:33.080
<v Speaker 2>out and the towels looking at her like mm hmmm,

0:58:33.560 --> 0:58:36.400
<v Speaker 2>like you we all everyone knows the game, okay, and

0:58:36.440 --> 0:58:39.280
<v Speaker 2>we know the game. It's the worst game. It's depressing,

0:58:39.400 --> 0:58:44.600
<v Speaker 2>it's sad, it's just the pits ya. And you know,

0:58:45.040 --> 0:58:48.080
<v Speaker 2>in those cases, it's like it's so hard because your

0:58:48.120 --> 0:58:52.959
<v Speaker 2>friends know and they try to tell you. But I mean, look,

0:58:53.000 --> 0:58:55.919
<v Speaker 2>we've all been in situations where you're like, I told her,

0:58:56.120 --> 0:58:58.240
<v Speaker 2>she's mad at me. Now she doesn't speak to me,

0:58:58.360 --> 0:59:01.760
<v Speaker 2>and they're tee and then you're like, well, that's so true.

0:59:01.920 --> 0:59:03.720
<v Speaker 1>I also think it's interesting because it is such a

0:59:03.760 --> 0:59:07.640
<v Speaker 1>departure for Samantha right. It's so interesting to see Samantha

0:59:07.760 --> 0:59:11.160
<v Speaker 1>be in that situation, which I think is also interesting

0:59:11.280 --> 0:59:13.120
<v Speaker 1>writing that they were like, Okay, first of all, we

0:59:13.120 --> 0:59:16.440
<v Speaker 1>want Samantha to actually fall in love. Then we wanted

0:59:16.480 --> 0:59:19.480
<v Speaker 1>to actually get hurt and try to make it work,

0:59:19.560 --> 0:59:22.960
<v Speaker 1>which is kind of impressive for her to even try, right,

0:59:23.000 --> 0:59:25.880
<v Speaker 1>So I guess it's all about, like, within that character,

0:59:26.000 --> 0:59:28.200
<v Speaker 1>what's growth, And in some ways that is growth for

0:59:28.280 --> 0:59:32.720
<v Speaker 1>her right to even try to be hopeful in that situation.

0:59:33.120 --> 0:59:35.040
<v Speaker 2>But also you feel like he's.

0:59:34.800 --> 0:59:37.959
<v Speaker 1>Not worth it, at least that's how I felt, right.

0:59:38.040 --> 0:59:40.680
<v Speaker 1>I felt the same, right, right, right, So we know

0:59:40.760 --> 0:59:42.280
<v Speaker 1>he's going to go, so it's okay. That's one of

0:59:42.280 --> 0:59:44.240
<v Speaker 1>the good things about rewatching. It's like, well, we know

0:59:44.280 --> 0:59:46.080
<v Speaker 1>we're not going to suffer.

0:59:45.840 --> 0:59:48.760
<v Speaker 2>Down this too loss exactly. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:59:48.760 --> 0:59:51.520
<v Speaker 1>But also it's funny because sometimes, like with Steve and Miranda,

0:59:51.560 --> 0:59:53.520
<v Speaker 1>I watched them and I'm like, okay, wait, I know

0:59:53.600 --> 0:59:56.440
<v Speaker 1>where we get to in the film, right, but I

0:59:56.480 --> 0:59:57.960
<v Speaker 1>have no idea how we get there, and I know

0:59:58.000 --> 1:00:02.320
<v Speaker 1>we have Blair Underwood coming, so I'm so yeah, it's

1:00:02.360 --> 1:00:07.400
<v Speaker 1>so interesting, But like they keep the threads going so expertly. Yes,

1:00:07.680 --> 1:00:09.480
<v Speaker 1>but I think that's also how life is, right, Like

1:00:09.520 --> 1:00:11.440
<v Speaker 1>you can have a connection with someone, but that doesn't

1:00:11.480 --> 1:00:14.360
<v Speaker 1>mean it's going to work out in whatever way you

1:00:14.480 --> 1:00:17.560
<v Speaker 1>wanted to do it. But then also that doesn't necessarily

1:00:17.600 --> 1:00:21.200
<v Speaker 1>go away either, and it can you can't choose to

1:00:21.240 --> 1:00:22.160
<v Speaker 1>try to make it work out.

1:00:22.200 --> 1:00:24.959
<v Speaker 2>Like it's interesting to me, I do I believe. Yeah,

1:00:25.160 --> 1:00:27.160
<v Speaker 2>I totally agree with you on that.

1:00:27.720 --> 1:00:30.480
<v Speaker 1>Miranda also, she could have totally ended up with Blair's

1:00:30.520 --> 1:00:35.360
<v Speaker 1>character that was dreaming, right, because he's incredible.

1:00:35.480 --> 1:00:38.640
<v Speaker 2>I loved him, right. It's hard.

1:00:38.960 --> 1:00:41.040
<v Speaker 1>It's interesting to think about because I'm like, wait, what

1:00:41.080 --> 1:00:44.120
<v Speaker 1>about Blair. I'm like, oh, but then the Brooklyn Bridge

1:00:44.120 --> 1:00:44.720
<v Speaker 1>and that kiss.

1:00:44.800 --> 1:00:46.160
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't know.

1:00:46.480 --> 1:00:49.200
<v Speaker 1>But it's amazing that we have this length of time

1:00:49.280 --> 1:00:50.919
<v Speaker 1>with these characters.

1:00:50.600 --> 1:00:54.800
<v Speaker 2>Right, to see them through all the seasons, all the things.

1:00:54.840 --> 1:00:58.080
<v Speaker 2>I love it episode.

1:00:58.240 --> 1:01:01.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm so happy to get I do have one more

1:01:01.400 --> 1:01:02.720
<v Speaker 1>personal question for you?

1:01:02.880 --> 1:01:08.240
<v Speaker 2>Yes, oh yes, are you a Charlotte. I am a

1:01:08.360 --> 1:01:12.480
<v Speaker 2>part Charlotte. Okay, I'm the optimism. I have the optimism

1:01:12.560 --> 1:01:15.760
<v Speaker 2>of Charlotte. I would believe, I hope till the end,

<v Speaker 2>I have some carry.

<v Speaker 1>Love it and observation, yes, and analysis.

1:01:21.400 --> 1:01:24.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, exactly. And then I have the boss that I

1:01:24.520 --> 1:01:27.240
<v Speaker 2>think both Branda and Samantha have a little boss a

1:01:27.240 --> 1:01:30.640
<v Speaker 2>little bit. I'm in charge, sorry, So I think I

1:01:30.680 --> 1:01:34.440

<v Speaker 2>any optimist has some Charlotte.

1:01:36.480 --> 1:01:41.640
<v Speaker 1>Definitely, definitely, I love that so much. That's a very balanced.

1:01:41.520 --> 1:01:43.920
<v Speaker 2>And I have a little bit of each. Yeah, but

1:01:43.960 --> 1:01:45.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm more optimist than anything. I love it.
