We are already talking circles around fish? Do you 353 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: know what Reese Witherspoon does? She tells chat Shobut to 354 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: explain the book in one paragraph, she reads that paragraph 355 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: and then she does an Instagram reil where someone else 356 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 1: writes no line and she goes, y'all, when I read 357 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: this book, I said this is my favorite book. And 358 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: then the next week she does that with a different 359 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: book and then she options all of them. None of 360 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: them ever get made, but she makes one billion dollars 361 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,400 Speaker 1: a week from it. Do you know how much we're 362 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: making during this episode, negative three hundred dollars. That's tricky, yes, 363 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: because it's really tricky. 364 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 3: It is tricky. I wonder if there's a way to 365 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,439 Speaker 3: raise funds. 366 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 1: And that's this is a benefit show. All in now, donate, donate, donate, 367 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: But we do we do want to talk about the book, 368 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 1: right so because it's book club book clubs and maybe 369 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:46,919 Speaker 1: we'll have been asking, you know, you've had authors to 370 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: be honest, award winning authors on the podcast before, like 371 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 1: what's different about this one. The difference is we can 372 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 1: talk about spoilers if we want, because it's a book 373 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: club and people, and we encourage people to read it 374 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: ahead of time. So if we're having like Jonathan Frienzen 375 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 1: on just like as a normal guest, his straight topic 376 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: is birding, you know we're not going to like spoil 377 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: the corrections.

You know. Sam 450 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: is just looking straight ahead as people are like whipping 451 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:41,119 Speaker 1: out cocks but anything they can get their hands on, 452 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: and Sam is just like don't look, don't look, and 453 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: then meanwhile you're you're screaming, who's gonna fuck me? 454 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 3: George? I want to know where you are in this spectrum. 455 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: Okay, I have to agree with you that Sam has 456 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: a charisma that stays with people. And the best way 457 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 1: I can describe it is if you introduce some one 458 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: to Sam, they will keep asking you how is Sam? Forever? 459 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: So I will say, like, one example is my father 460 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: in law. We introduced him to Sam once because Sam 461 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: had a medical issue. And the medical issue that I 462 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: would say is like not a sexy one. I was 463 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: internally bleeding. Yes, it was a gastrent trology issue. Scary, 464 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 1: so you know we're talking. I don't know what kind 465 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 1: of photos for exchange, and nor is it my business 466 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: to ask, But this man's sight the inside of my asshole. 467 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 1: This Sam saw Sam ad his most vulnerable. You would 468 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: think he'd be in there. You would think he'd want 469 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: to move on after that and not like keep checking 470 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: in when I tell you to this day, every time 471 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:44,360 Speaker 1: I see him, how's Sam doing? He literally heard about 472 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: the after midnight not being on air anymore and and 473 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: proactively asked me without me telling him, like a back 474 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: to New York. 475 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 4: Yes, that is wild. To be fair, I had a 476 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 4: really special bond with Matthew's dad. Yeah, there was really 477 00:22:59,280 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 4: something there. 478 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, So I do uh, I do agree with 479 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: what you're saying, But does you too? I would say 480 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 1: Sam and I have different types enough that I've never 481 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: felt not that I would ever feel competitive, but I've 482 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: never felt like, oh no, like that person is giving 483 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: Sam or me more attention in a way that is noticeable. 484 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 4: And I think George has a more There's something about 485 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 4: George where he's the one that people go to to 486 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 4: like ask to be on the podcast, Like people feel 487 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 4: more comfortable talking with George, and in a way that 488 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 4: I'm like confused, Like I'm like, I feel like I'm 489 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 4: like presenting a smiley vibe. You're more smiley vibe than 490 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 4: I am, and people are like not messaging me for anything. 491 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: Here's what I think it is. I think, broadly speaking, 492 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: if you were to see me and not know me, 493 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: I would maybe seem kind of bitchy and not super forthcoming. 494 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: But if we're having a one on one conversation, I 495 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: think I get more. I don't want to say I'm 496 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 1: i access a fake thing because I don't think it's fake, ye, 497 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: but I'm a to get into a small talk mindset, 498 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 1: maybe one on one, yesier Oka. And so then people 499 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: immediately feel like we have a connection. Yeah, how do 500 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 1: you feel about that? I think that makes sense. Yeah, 501 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: I think that makes sense. 502 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 4: But Joe, you everyone's obsessed with you, with this beloved 503 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 4: comedian in all of America, to be completely honest, and 504 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:23,879 Speaker 4: the thing is you can't. 505 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: You refuse to accept it, and you refuse to do 506 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: stand up comedy to be honest. 507 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 3: I told you I hit that stage in my woman's life. 508 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 1: In my woman's life whatever. 509 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 3: Okay.

I would say that 555 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 3: there's the main character is kind of incompetent and also mousey. 556 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 3: And just because I'm also incompetent and Mousey doesn't mean 557 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 3: that we're the same person by any means. 558 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 1: First, I don't think commtent because you did write a 559 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: book the auto fiction. I want to say, No, so 560 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: it's like, how so Sex Island is Love Island? 561 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 4: And then and then you're the detective, so like that's. 562 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 1: This is a murder mystery based on your life. No, 563 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: and it's called murder on Sex Island. So Sex Island 564 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 1: is clearly inspired by Love Island, although there are major 565 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: differences like what name one? Okay, here's one. Okay, they 566 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: live in a big apartment.

Actually, 570 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 1: one of the few things about your book that is 571 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 1: less disgusting than Love Island is that because on Love 572 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 1: Island they sleep in true like a communal room with 573 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 1: communal beds. 574 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 3: Yes, but then in the Love Island UK, some people 575 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 3: get to sleep in single beds up above. 576 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,679 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you. I've watched exactly two 577 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 1: episodes of Love Island US, and I watched even less. 578 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 3: Oh interesting, Well I've watched almost almost Yeah.

No, I wish, And 731 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: how many babies are we talking? 732 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 3: This happens with several babies and then we and we 733 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 3: looked up to Tech and to Tech isn't as Tech 734 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:51,879 Speaker 3: god of war? 735 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 1: And so do you think in his past life he 736 00:36:59,120 --> 00:36:59,799 Speaker 1: was to Tech? 737 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 3: It seems only I don't know how explain, and I actually. 738 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: Have an explanation for why babies know him as totech. Oh, 739 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,760 Speaker 1: I would love to know your explanation. It's actually pretty simple, 740 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 1: and I'm sure everyone would have gotten there eventually. But 741 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,720 Speaker 1: it's like, okay, so if there are past lives, Okay, 742 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,760 Speaker 1: a baby is born, that's a new life being started. 743 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: But maybe like there's residual past life until the baby 744 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 1: grows up, you know what I mean. So like there's 745 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 1: there's the new life is only just getting started, and 746 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 1: it's filling in the container that previously had the past life. 747 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 1: So in the beginning, there's enough of the past life 748 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 1: for them to recognize him as to Tech, and then 749 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,919 Speaker 1: as they get older, the part of them that would 750 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:46,240 Speaker 1: recognize him fades away and now they are just like Keith. 751 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 1: It's essentially the plot of Baby Geniuses.

Wouldn't have to ever go 814 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 3: back to these comedy. 815 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:53,280 Speaker 1: Clubs right where he were making the big books.

Then you know, 822 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 3: I started querying it. 823 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,239 Speaker 1: No, query, showing it to people, Yeah, you send it, 824 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: and they. 825 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 3: Said no, no, And so then I was like, well, 826 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 3: I wrote this whole book though, and so then I 827 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:32,279 Speaker 3: self published it. Okay, and then self publishing it is uh, 828 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:37,400 Speaker 3: it's it is a it is not. It is a 829 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,879 Speaker 3: tough process for it is. I accidentally made the book 830 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 3: really big. 831 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 1: How do you mean, like physically, like like the font 832 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 1: was really big.

Meanwhile you're surfing on the book, surfing down 837 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,319 Speaker 1: the stairs on your giant's book. Just what we were 838 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,879 Speaker 1: calling your friends hated. Some things are micro, somethings are macro? 839 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 1: Can anything be normal? 840 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 3: You all, why don't you audition for ass?

Okay, yeah. 843 00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 3: So then so then basically I did this. I did 844 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 3: this whole self published book. Okay, and then uh and 845 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 3: then I uh and then I I and then eventually 846 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 3: it became a published book. But then they were like, 847 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 3: you have a lot of plot holes. So then I 848 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 3: had to revise the book and write it again. So 849 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,320 Speaker 3: I've written this book I think nineteen times. 850 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: What was the holes? Well changed? I want to just 851 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 1: push back a little bit. What you're describing is the 852 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 1: editing process. 853 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,320 Speaker 3: I don't actually need you to push back at this 854 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 3: book at this moment.

It actually is a time 859 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 3: to push. 860 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,560 Speaker 1: Forward, push forward.

And that's not what I felt. 1016 00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:55,280 Speaker 3: I did, and I felt I said, who wants a pencil? 1017 00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,880 Speaker 3: Time to get to work? And I guess in his mind, 1018 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 3: I was you know what I was wearing a big uniform. 1019 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 1: You were being Patch Adams to Sam.

It has nothing to do with 1029 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 1: my opinions on the Gilded Age. I think theater actresses 1030 00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 1: are the patch atoms of the culture industry, and I 1031 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 1: respect them.

And You're like you're a grave. 1460 01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:32,760 Speaker 1: It's crazy that there's you're having an interaction that I'm 1461 01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:35,840 Speaker 1: part of. And then there's this entire undercurrent of this 1462 01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:38,519 Speaker 1: story you're making up about it that I cannot predict 1463 01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:38,840 Speaker 1: at all. 1464 01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:43,280 Speaker 3: You know exactly what it's like, What do you think 1465 01:17:43,360 --> 01:17:45,240 Speaker 3: this is? What do you think this has been? 1466 01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:48,840 Speaker 1: Like I gave I gave you a compliment. 1467 01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:51,360 Speaker 4: I think this has been a really productive conversation about 1468 01:17:51,360 --> 01:17:52,599 Speaker 4: your creative process. 1469 01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:55,680 Speaker 1: I think I think we're are the ones that we're 1470 01:17:55,720 --> 01:17:57,120 Speaker 1: the ones that keep bringing it back to the book. 1471 01:17:57,120 --> 01:17:59,040 Speaker 1: You know, often it's the other way around. The celebrity 1472 01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:03,280 Speaker 1: will be in view a celebrity on this podcast, authors 1473 01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:06,560 Speaker 1: are celebrities. Yeah, nowhere else. So a celebrity will be 1474 01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:08,720 Speaker 1: interviewed and then the interviewer will be like, so you 1475 01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:11,240 Speaker 1: were spotted with Brad Pitt, And then the celebrity will 1476 01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:12,800 Speaker 1: be like, I actually just want to talk about when 1477 01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:15,040 Speaker 1: you play, it's about a woman who has a difficult 1478 01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:19,000 Speaker 1: time in the grocery store because of the pandemic. 1479 01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,519 Speaker 3: Oh, sounds a good book. 1480 01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:25,559 Speaker 1: Mm hmmmmm. This was a play actually, But and did 1481 01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:26,559 Speaker 1: change your book to play. 1482 01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:30,000 Speaker 4: That was confusing, Wait, because we were talking about authors 1483 01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:31,280 Speaker 4: and then it was like the author of that. 1484 01:18:31,400 --> 01:18:35,000 Speaker 1: I actually said celebrity in my story, not author. Well 1485 01:18:35,080 --> 01:18:41,320 Speaker 1: I changed it. Oh. My point is usually the interviewer 1486 01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:43,120 Speaker 1: is the one trying to take the conversation away from 1487 01:18:43,160 --> 01:18:45,200 Speaker 1: the work, and the celebrity tries to bring back to 1488 01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:46,519 Speaker 1: the work.
