1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: Look man, oh I see you? Why why and look

2
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: over there? How is that? Culture? Yes? Goodness calling. We

3
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 1: are back in the hallowed space of Ronnie de Simone's apartment.

4
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 1: Now did he say that? Right? Did that? Simone or

5
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: de Simone Simone? You know, look, I don't. I think

6
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: I'm trying to like you were trying to tell you

7
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,279
Speaker 1: what you were trying to do. You were trying to

8
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 1: make what you felt would make his name more interesting,

9
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: and that's what you were trying. Sometimes I give a

10
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: note on names, and you were actually you know what

11
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,520
Speaker 1: you just did? What did I do? You correctly pronounces

12
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 1: Raven Simonia's name. Everyone believe it's Simone Raven Simone because

13
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: she doesn't have an accent over the e. Yeah, that's

14
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: her failing, that's absolutely I win. She's someone who asked,

15
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: you know, standard linguistic you know whatever, annotations. I don't

16
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: know what the hell I'm talking about. You know what,

17
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 1: I'll cop to this. I was trying to sound smart

18
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: and cultured, but I failed. There you go, breaking news,

19
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: breaking news, breaking news here on culture, and we have

20
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: further breaking news. Yes, Matt, go ahead, everyone, Um, this

21
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: is heartbreaking to say, but we've experienced an influx of

22
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: requests for Sluck to perform around town. The town being

23
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 1: New York City and Sluck is our duo. We we

24
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 1: dressed and filthy, garbage, garbage makeup and dance and lip

25
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: sync to a mashup of stuff. Sluck is retired, so

26
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: Sluck will no longer perform because Luck is very physical

27
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: and we're going to break our bodies. But you can

28
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: see Sluck one more time at the last theme party

29
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 1: you ceb East, which is to be determined when that

30
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 1: is going to be. But that will be Sluck's last

31
00:01:55,520 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: performance other than that. Sorry, but Sluck will Stuck is

32
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: only a memory. This was a mutual decision, so um, yeah,

33
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: it feels right. Um, But anyway, I'm so excited to

34
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: be back here because we're here for a very special

35
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,520

36
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,760

37
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: and um, we'll get to that guest in a second.

38
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: But here's the thing. By nature of this guest being here,

39
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: this is a musical episode. And you know that what

40
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: that means. It means it means we are joined by

41
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: not even friend of the show, best friend of best

42
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: friend of the show, best friend, soulmate of the show,

43
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: historical historical part of last culture. Is that absolutely we're

Speaker 1: here with pianist. Is it pianist or pianiste from? Yeah?

45
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,840

46
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 1: I said pianist. We have wide a sounds. This is

47
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: the dulcet tones of Henry Koperski. You're hearing everyone, Hi, Henry, Hi,

48

Speaker 1: thank you. That is so sweet to call me the

49
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: best friend and soulmate. I would say that you are

50
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: an intricate part of the show, the fabric of the show.

51
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 1: And you're you're back here for Is this the fourth

52
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: time you've been on the show if you count. I

53
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: don't think so, honey. I suppose it is, yes, And

54
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: that's that might be the record. I'm sort of here

55
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: every episode because I did compose the Oh my god, wait,

56
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: have we given proper credit for that? Have not given

57
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: proper credit? Guys? The new Loss Culture is to theme song,

58
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: which some people have reached out to us about. They're

59
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 1: a little confused about why we had to change it.

60
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: It's very obviously legal reasons. Becaun't license by the Dixie Cups,

61
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: but Henry Kaperski so so so graciously wrote us a

62
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: theme song yes and um it's a beautiful song. Thank you, Henry.

63
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: I was an honor to do. I also wrote the

64
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: theme song for Matayo Lan's podcast Yes, which is called

65
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 1: The Closet Inside the Closet with m Wilman. So that's

66
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: maybe that'll be my thing. I think it's your new niche,

67
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: your new niche. Now that's not to say that you're

68
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: not busy, because I was truly guided when I heard

69
00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: about Henry's upcoming activities is huge. Tell us about what

70
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: you're going to be doing at fifty four below. In

71
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: the month of May, I was reached out to sub

72
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: for a music director because he couldn't do a show,

73
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: and you know, the pay was right, so I said yes.

00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: And the person's the person whose show it is is

75

77
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,280

78
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: the name. He thought it was the Desperate Housewives. And

79
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: that's how off the grid he is. I used to

80
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,360

00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,679
Speaker 1: the show since the out of town in Chicago into

155
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: an amazing, amazing and then also Rocky Horror Picture Show

156
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: on Fox. And UM, just just so so many a

157
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,959
Speaker 1: litany of credits. She working, she working, and it's oh

158
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: my god, it's our privilege to talk to you, Amy.

159
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 1: I'm so excited. We've heard the performances. I'm so excited

160
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: for everyone to hear them. I'm not kidding. This show

161
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 1: was it was so good. What you're doing is so special.

162
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: So tell us a little bit about the show. What

163
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: inspired you to do it? Sure? So, I I had

164
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: done a couple of solo acts before below. H. It's

165
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: something like I've been wanting to do since I got

166
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: to the city and just never got my my act together.

167
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: And then uh, managed to do a solo show that

168
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: was just basically like this is a big party, come on,

169
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 1: you know. And then I was thinking, like, I really

170
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: want to do another show. And I always have like

171
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: eight playlists going of different show ideas, uh, and I

172
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: just was finding myself more and more infuriated at the

173
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: way women are written for, not written for basically the

174
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 1: way like anyone who's not assist dude is written for,

175
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: you know, and the the way that I'm talking in

176
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 1: in all kinds of the arts, but but specifically theaters

177
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: like you know where I live most of the time.

178
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: So the way that a lot of male material can

179
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: be about anything, and the way a lot of female

180
00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: material is about a child or uh, love interest, that

181
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: sort of thing, or it's just not that deep. And

182
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: it it's getting better, but it just infuriates me. And

183
00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't like feeling impotent rage. I like to feel

184
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 1: potent rage. So exactly, so I I basically was like, well,

185
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 1: screw this. You know what I'm I'm also six ft tall.

186
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,559
Speaker 1: I played a lot of male roles, especially like in Shakespeare.

187
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,959
Speaker 1: I think until a show I did just before the

188
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: last time I did the concert seen I would I

189
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: had more male Shakespearean roles on my resume than female. Um.

190
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: And also in Shakespeare, like that's very common to just

191
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 1: do gender blind casting or fluid casting. But I, uh,

192
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: you know, I was like, oh, it's not just that

193
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 1: I'm tall, and it's it's that stepping into this kind

194
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 1: of material unlocks something in me, Like it unocks this

195
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 1: permission to be aggressive and completely assertive in a way

196
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 1: that is sometimes considered unfeminine or bitchy or bossy. Uh.

197
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: And so there's something incredibly freeing, you know about being

198
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: able to stand on the stage and and like, so

199
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: this is my point of view, and I'm not gonna

200
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: apologize for it. I'm not gonna like try and make

201
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: it palatable. Um. So it's not it's not like a

202
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: preachy show, I think, you know, but I'm just like

203
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 1: the what I have selected centers a A fem identifying

204
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: body in a position of power and strength, and uh,

205
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: you know I So I did it in May of

206
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, a couple of months of fifty four below,

207
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: and I had a great time, and a lot of folks,

208
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:40,839
Speaker 1: particularly female identifying folks who saw it like really uh,

209
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: warmed to it and got exactly what I was saying. Uh.

210
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: But then, you know, a lot happened in between May

211
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:53,320
Speaker 1: and now and I just did it. I don't remember

212
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,839
Speaker 1: it reads twitter, um, And so I just had been thinking,

213
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot of other shows I want

214
00:11:58,400 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 1: to do, and I've been working a lot reach and

215
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: only so I just I didn't do like a solo

216
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: show last year, and it's just like, you know what

217
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 1: I feel like, rather than crafting something new, I want

218
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 1: to dive back into that because it feels even more pression,

219
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: totally important, and like I also think that some of

220
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: the people who didn't necessarily get what I was trying

221
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: to do last time, because of the national conversation with

222
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: times up in me too all the stuff, I think

223
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: there's more of an awareness of like, oh, that's that's

224
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,839
Speaker 1: what this is really about. Uh. And so yeah, I'm

225
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:33,800
Speaker 1: really excited it feels right to do it again. I

226
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 1: would say it's about five the same. We've just changed

227
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: a couple of songs, adding a song or two, and

228
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 1: some of the guests are different. Um, they're not all confirmed,

229
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: so I can't, so we can't. Well, everyone's stay tuned

230
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 1: for the guests announcement. So every song in the show

231
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 1: is traditionally performed by a male character and by a

232
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:59,199
Speaker 1: male character, or is a written by like a male musician.

233
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: It's performed I like a male rock singer or what happened? So, yes,

234
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: it's all male material. Yes, I remember you did a

235
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: certain Maroon five song. Oh yes, the wire is Yeah,

236
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,599
Speaker 1: I have I have an eleven minute medley called the

237
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: Inevitable Sexist Medley right in the middle of the show,

238
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,839
Speaker 1: and that's primarily like pop and rock. And it's funny

239
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,719
Speaker 1: you mentioned that one because that I also, I don't

240
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: listen to a lot of radio pops, so because I

241
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: had to actually do some deep divores, I was on

242
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 1: a regional gig and I was like, all right, I'm

243
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: just gonna stay and watch a lot of music videos

244
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: and I was just like the rage. It was like

245
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: a whole week. I was just watching these terrible music

246
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: videos of these songs are like, you know, I was like, okay, okay,

247
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: I've put this medley together and now I gotta step

248
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,680
Speaker 1: away for a second. But that was one that like

249
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: I had heard, but I you know, didn't really know,

250
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: and I was watching the music video for that, which

251
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 1: is it's wild, it's terrifying, you know. But there was

252
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 1: a baby I'm praying on you tonight, hunch you down,

253
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 1: eat you a lot, like just like but it's catchy.

254
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 1: So he's listening. So I am America. Yeah, everybody's listening now.

255
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 1: But yeah, so I I Actually there's this guy who

256
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,199
Speaker 1: came and reviewed it, just like a caparet blogger, and he,

257
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: you know, he thought the medley was a bit long,

258
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, well, that's part of the point, Like,

259
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: no one needs an eleven minute medley, but when it

260
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: is called the inevitable sexist medley, part of the point is, yeah,

261
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: you think, and you gotta bludgeon them to be audience

262
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,640
Speaker 1: with a different and Animal Animals was one of the

263
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: ones that he mentioned as a possibility to cut and

264
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, so you've never been followed down

265
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 1: the street and had to tuck into a Dwayne read

266
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 1: in the hopes that some creepy dude will stop following you.

267
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: You've never liked pretended to call a friend to say

268
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: you're going to their house so that when you walk

269
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 1: into your own apartment, they don't think it's yours. Like

270
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: you just never had that as part of your reality, sir,

271
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 1: So you don't understand that's the tea. That is the tea.

272
00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 1: And with everything that Amy Joe just said, I just

273
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: want to quote Guy Brandon who quoted some English literally

274
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: literary critic in saying that men act and women appear,

275
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: because I think that is the whole sort of unifying

276
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 1: theory of of what you're trying to do, which is

277
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: so cool. I'm so excited to see it. Oh, it's

278
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: a true and also like, outside of it being like

279
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: incredibly like moving and important, you're also an incredible performers,

280
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: as we should actually here right now now. Tell us

281
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 1: about this first song that you and Henry are going

282
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: to do. Yes, So I'm very coy with my set lists,

283
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 1: so I don't the stuff that I'm doing tonight is

284
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 1: not stuff that's in my show, but it is evocative

285
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: of the stuff that's in my show. So this first one.

286
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: I think many people will recognize it's a show. Show,

287
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: it's a song. I've done a lot and performed around,

288
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: but this is very much of the type of thing

289
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 1: you might see at an Amy Joe Jackson event. Yes, okay, cool,

290
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: Well let's get into it. How do you do I

291
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 1: see you've met my faithful handy man. He's just a

292
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:15,280
Speaker 1: little brought down because when you knocked, he thought you

293
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: were the candy man. You'll get shut up. But the way, LA,

294
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: don't touch a book client's cover. I'm not much of

295
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 1: a man, but the light of dates that by night,

296
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 1: I'm one he LoVa. I'm just a sweet transfstight from

Speaker 1: Maybe play you a sound You look like you're both

299
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 1: pretty groovy. If you want something visual, it's not too abyssmal.

300
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: We could take in an old Steve Reeves movie. What

301
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:07,040
Speaker 1: you got caught with the flat? Well, how about that? Now?

302
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 1: Babies don't panic by the light of the night, and

303
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 1: I'll see my right. I'll get you a suctanic mechanic.

00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 1: I'm just a sweet transvestide from trance sexual transu the way,

305
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 1: why don't you stay for the night or maybe a bite.

306
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 1: I can show you my favorite obsession and then making

307
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 1: a man the blonde hair and a tan and he's

00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: good for a leaving night tension. I'm just a sweet

309
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:59,159
Speaker 1: transrest ride from Terrance sexual trans all right, I'm just

310
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 1: a sweets missed from sexual Still. Come up to the

311
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 1: lab and see what's on the slow. I see you

312
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: shiver with a patient. Maybe the rain. It's really to blame,

313
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 1: so I remove the cause. But not Yeah that was

314
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: that was like, okay, I'm not familiar with Rockey Horror. Ah,

315
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 1: you know you're not a Rocky Horror, are you not?

316
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: And yeah, I've done it. I've played Magenta. And then

317
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: growing up, like you would go to a friend's house

318
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: for like a nerdy theater party and on the on

319
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: in the background would always be either Rocky Horror, m

320
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,919
Speaker 1: Monty Python and the Holy Grail are Waiting for Government.

321
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 1: Those were were of theater party. Lastly, I remember the

322
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: first Rocky Horror picture I saw. Was it actually at

323
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 1: m y U during welcome week. They did this, they

324
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 1: had to put it on a Rocky Horror for a

325
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: Welcome Week and I'm like very closeted at the time

326
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: and from Long Island, but had like a very sheltered

327
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,679
Speaker 1: like American eagle life. Um So, like the most salacious

328
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 1: thing I had ever seen was like when someone got

329
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 1: off got voted off on American Idol, like too early.

330
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: That was like controversy to me. So I go there

331
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 1: and everyone's of course dressed the part, and I wore

332
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: like my like polo, and I'm like there and I

333
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 1: couldn't believe the culture scandal it was. I was scandalized

334
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: deeply and I actually can't believe it's gotten to that point,

335
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: like like it's such a cult thing, the whole horror.

336
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: It's amazing. Oh yeah, it's really fun to do. So

337
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 1: I did it in Asbury Park, New Jersey, um on

338
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: in this the Carousel House. So it's like when it

339
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: was like an operating boardwalk back in the day it

340
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 1: was there was a carousel in there that now is

341
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 1: no longer in there, so people use it for like

342
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: an event space, and so it's it's oh bit like

343
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,119
Speaker 1: it's it's like closed off but not completely like wind

344
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: proof or anything. So we're doing it in uh October

345
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: because we're doing around Halloween October early November in New

346
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 1: Jersey on on the beach basically um, and of course

347
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: it's Rocky Horse that everyone's wearing, like it's it's a

348
00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,679
Speaker 1: no pants show, let's get it that way, and so

349
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 1: we we would we It's like they had like blocked

350
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: off half of it, so you're kind of kind of

351
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: the whole space was basically like a semicircle, and then

352
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 1: the stage was like a semicircle within that. So they

353
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 1: had these two big bombs, these aisles that you would

354
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 1: run down. So we would stand there shivering in our

355
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: coats at the back of the vomb, and then the

356
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 1: music was starting. I was the first one on because

357
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,159
Speaker 1: because Magenta Sink science fiction double feature, and like we

358
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 1: would just just like throw my coat to the ground

359
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,919
Speaker 1: and run. And there was a guy who he I

360
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: think he was one of the board ops, but he

361
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 1: would be there to gather all the coats of these

362
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 1: poor young women like and then like put them back

363
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,280
Speaker 1: at our stations so at intermission we could like put

364
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 1: them on. But it was really fun. What's really fun

365
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,439
Speaker 1: about the show is you get people who know it

366
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: really well callouts and it feels like you're like you're

367
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,719
Speaker 1: a rock star because they know you're magenta, even though

368
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: they have no idea who you. So you appear there

369
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 1: like yes, and she's like, I've not earned this at all,

370
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 1: but it feels so good. Uh, and so it's really

371
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: fun interesting. But I've never I've never actually gone to

372
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: a midnight screening of the movie, but I believe you

373
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 1: guys are room fans. I have been to many of them.

374
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 1: That was my first date with my husband my room.

375
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 1: I had watched all of it in a in a

376
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: dressing room before, like a friend had. He was like,

377
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: you guys have to see because I was in a

378
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: dressing room with the guys. It was a long story,

379
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: but so he was like, you guys have to have

380
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,479
Speaker 1: to watch this movie. So he did highlights and then

381
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,360
Speaker 1: we went there and spent an entire week at half hour.

382
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: We just watched chunks of it. What we could, you know,

383
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 1: we had to go do a dumb show. You know,

384
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 1: Normally I love my job, but that was not one

385
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 1: of those jobs that I love. We were like, can

386
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 1: we just hang out the dress room. It's safer. We're

387
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: not gonna hear it on stage. I'm not talking about

388
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: Rocky Hard, I'm talking about another show al together, but

389
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 1: yeahing of the room. I have a pitch the room

390
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,959
Speaker 1: the musical. I think it's people. There must be somebody.

391
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,120
Speaker 1: It's got to happen. You're tearing me apartly. So there's

392
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:44,199
Speaker 1: there's a band if air I heard you are my

393
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: rose into a full number? Like you about that being

394
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: our first dance at our we were nobody would know

395
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,439
Speaker 1: but us, but we would be like we did not

396
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 1: take the whole wedding thing very seriously. Let's put that right.

397
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: We're like, we would be great. Was that his idea

398
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: to go see the movie? You know? Um? He It's

399
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: funny like we had like so I've met him like

400
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,199
Speaker 1: a couple of years before working on a show, and

401
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: then you know, so I had seen him. We were

402
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: in like the same big circle of friends at the flea.

403
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: So I've worked, I knew him, but we'd never really

404
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 1: like hung out and hung out. And then um yeah,

405
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: I reconnected with him like after a show that he

406
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: was in that I went, and so we were like

407
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 1: hanging out the bar and I was like, why have

408
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: I never really thought about this Jeff Rohnan character. And

409
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,439
Speaker 1: we're kind of flirting and like nothing really happened. But

410
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: then he posted something to facebookcause there were a group

411
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: of people that we're going to go see this film,

412
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 1: and I was like, I'm gonna message and I got

413
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: there earlier, so I only saved two seats because I

414
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 1: didn't know there was like this group of Like I

415
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 1: knew there were other people, but I know how many.

416
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 1: And so he endedup just sitting with me apart from

417
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 1: all the friends, and we were like, oh, we had, like,

418
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,919
Speaker 1: you know, a'm a little moment. We're like, oh, so

419
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: we count that. I think from hearing this story, it

420
00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 1: sounds like a date. I have this question in you, Okay,

421
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: what is the most this is this? This is weirdly phrased.

422
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,879
Speaker 1: What's the most excruciating pain that you've had to suffer

423
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 1: through for in the name of theater, let's say physical

424
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: or otherwise? Well, m mmmmm, there's a few, right um.

425
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: I would probably say my ursula costume, but not in

426
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: one go cumulation, because I was wearing I was wearing

427
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:34,639
Speaker 1: five and a half inch platform heels, which we're actually

428
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 1: pretty comfortable, but then I was wearing these huge hit

429
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: paths that that like the order of the costume. It

430
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 1: took three people to get me in and out of it.

431
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: It was like I was in the you know in France.

432
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: I've likened it to driving a small golf cart. So

433
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 1: I practiced a lot in it because I am very

434
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: anal retentive and I was like, I don't want the

435
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: costume to wear me. I need to be in charge

436
00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: of it. But limited mobility like I. And luckily we

437
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: did a photo shoot the first week, so I had

438
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: been in it. So when we were staging stuff, I

439
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 1: was like, I don't think I can do that, but

440
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: we can try this. So I don't think walking backwards

441
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 1: is going to be possible because it was just like

442
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: a lot going on that I couldn't see. And if

443
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: you go down, you get back up, you know. So yeah,

444
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,959
Speaker 1: it had these big hip pads and then this I was.

445
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: I was wearing a corset that stayed on the whole time,

446
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: like the bodice um. You know. It wasn't that it

447
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 1: was tight, it was that it had all these mirrored

448
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: plastic pieces and rye stones on the front, which looked amazing.

449
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: I looked like a disco ball when the light hit me.

450
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: But it did mean that it would scrape underneath my arms.

451
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: So when I get off stage, I had like either

452
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 1: a hoodie or like a blanket that they gave me

453
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: that I tucked into it, and they put mole skin

454
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 1: on it so that it was like not as bad.

455
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: But so I had like scratches all into my arms

456
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 1: and excuse me, equity, my costume is killing me. Well,

457
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 1: that's every you got to a certain age, and it's

458
00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 1: every show. Yeah, so I did. So then you put

459
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,120
Speaker 1: the skirt on top of that, and it was pretty tight,

460
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 1: and then the tentacles were on a belt that would

461
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: go on top of that. I would say when I

462
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:15,120
Speaker 1: was experiencing menstrual cramps, it was unbearable. It all sat right,

463
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,120
Speaker 1: it all like leaned into that, and so like it

464
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: wasn't so bad because I would not stay in it

465
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: the whole time because I couldn't sit down. Tech was

466
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: bad because I was when we did the Poor Unfortunate

467
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 1: Soul scene and song. That's two hours plus that I

468
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: was in it in one go. So every time we

469
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: would have a hold, a dresser would come running out

470
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:34,920
Speaker 1: from the wings with a chair. They would then pull

471
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,639
Speaker 1: my skirt up so I could kneel on it, so

472
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 1: I could get off the shoes. So it was more

473
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: just that accumulatively because I couldn't bend in it, and

474
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 1: then I was in this like super like weird posture,

475
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,359
Speaker 1: like my upper glutes got so tight and I couldn't

476
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: really walk that well out of costume because I was

477
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 1: some mess. But you know, I learned a lot about

478
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 1: like how much I need to be rolling out and

479
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: that sort of there's got to be a better way costume.

480
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:05,240
Speaker 1: To say nothing of the hair, even a huge wig.

481
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: It actually was very comfortable, but I couldn't lie down

482
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 1: or sit back, and you know, you know what I

483
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,119
Speaker 1: would also like part of the thing is I was

484
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 1: so tired because it took I was doing full drag

485
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: makeup and blocking my brows. It was so dragged. But

486
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: it was also like glue only drives so fast. And

487
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: I'm as someone who hadn't done drag up to that point,

488
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't know how to like other than like, okay,

489
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:29,360
Speaker 1: I use a blow dry and put it on cool

490
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: to try and make them go faster, but like make

491
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 1: make it because I also had the lace front had

492
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 1: a widow's peak and it came down super far, and

493
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 1: so if my brows weren't really dry by the time

494
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 1: I put the stuff on, then it would get stuck

495
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 1: in there and it would start to come off. So

496
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,320
Speaker 1: it was just like I had to get there. I

497
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,160
Speaker 1: left myself. I would get there two and a half

498
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: hours before curtain so I could go upstairs into the

499
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 1: studio and stretch, and then I'd leave myself two hours

500
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,880
Speaker 1: to do everything. It normally only took about an hour

501
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,200
Speaker 1: thirty two forty, but like because I just wasn't that

502
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: if I'd done the show for like a year, it

503
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: would have been a lot faster. But it was a

504
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: regional run, so so I would say probably that whole

505
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: cumulative experience, I was so tired. It was. That sounds

506
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: so much fun because it is the one of it's

507
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,160
Speaker 1: incredible and it's like I am evil Auntie mame, So

508
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 1: it was it's so perfect and that is a really

509
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 1: good part for you. And it was and apparently I

510
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 1: found it from the director, like she told me, like

511
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: we had like a night of drinks, like the first

512
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 1: weekend that everybody was there. She's like, you know what,

513
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: you booked it on your first on your first line

514
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: when you came in and used a liquid you saying sila.

515
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 1: I was like, that's our girl. I was like, wow,

516
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: could I know he's a liquid young Joe books by

517
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 1: on elocution alone, and that's if it's the right direction.

518
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 1: So speaking of you are currently the voice coach on

519
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: dialect Dialect excuse me, Friday, So I need to ask

520
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: about miss Toddrick Big because Hall was in the show

521
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 1: for a while for like three months, three four months.

522
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: Good to work with. Oh yeah, I just so many

523
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 1: people that have come in, you know, also when they're

524
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: stunt casting, you know you but like so many people

525
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: that have come in have just like nailed it. And

526
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 1: watching Tadrick work number one, just like very like warm

527
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 1: and like eager to do really well, like and his

528
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: his commitment to excellence is really like inspiring well. And

529
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,719
Speaker 1: so normally you'll put people in like I'll work with

530
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 1: them early on, especially with playing Lola. There's so many

531
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 1: lines and you know, a lot of people haven't worked

532
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: in an accent, so they're very nervous about it, uh,

533
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: And so I try to get to them early on

534
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 1: so that I can kind of calm that down. A

535
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 1: lot of my job is just like traffic directing, you know,

536
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 1: and then just like here's where you're going correctly and

537
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,239
Speaker 1: here's where we could just take a left turn, you know.

538
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 1: But then then they get on stage and start walking

539
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 1: through the block with stage management, with the associates and

540
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: uh and also learning the choreography from the dance captain.

541
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 1: And he you know, he wasn't writing anything down and

542
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 1: he would get I would seem like, do one pass

543
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 1: at it. He'd be like, Okay, let's do it again,

544
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: and he'd do it perfectly. And that is not you know,

545
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 1: dance is not my language. So I look at it,

546
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, by no, he's he's pretty Like when

547
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 1: I first, like when I first really was like, oh

548
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: my god, this person is so serious. Is in his

549
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: videos where he would do the cover the mashups covers

550
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 1: of all the pop stars songs and he would just

551
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: there's four of him and he does the choreography perfectly

552
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 1: in sync with each other, and he's nailing the vocals

553
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 1: and and also the personality charisma. It's just like he's

554
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: very wonderful to watch on stage, just like fills that

555
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: space and and and he I got to meet RuPaul.

556
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: He was in the show. I knew that Rue was

557
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: coming to his opening and true like so so basically

558
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: if there's like gonna be a photo op with a

559
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: celebrity or something that cast just after curtain call will

00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,600
Speaker 1: hang out in the wings and then come and do

561
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 1: like a photo So I'm like the dance Captain and

562
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,040

00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 1: was excited because we were going to get to do

610
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 1: this is letting people know where they can see the

611
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 1: most talented people and also understanding that like this might

612
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 1: be a lot of people's first introduction to people like yourself.

613
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: Although although I think it was Gabby Hornig. We were

614
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 1: talking to Gabby. I was talking to Gabby a while back,

615
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: and it was just like the fact that we had

616
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: booked Amy Joe Jackson for our first I don't think

617
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 1: so many live show. He was like, that was that

618
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: was worth the price of admission alone for someone like him.

619
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,240
Speaker 1: He was like, I see Amy Joe. I have to

620
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 1: go see Amy jo screen. So rude that you asked

621
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: me to do because like, I'm not really I'm not

622
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 1: a comedian. I am a comedian, but not you know,

623
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: we haven't even talked about the fact that Aaron Jackson's

624
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 1: my brother. You know Aaron Jackson on the show two

625
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 1: weeks ago. Um the brother, the little brother, little brother,

626
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: taller but but young, younger of Amy Joe Jackson. I

627
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 1: would love to hear what Aaron Jackson was like as

628
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,280
Speaker 1: a younger brother and continues to be like to this day.

629
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 1: I well, we've always been best friends. We're two years apart,

630
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,879
Speaker 1: so we were in the same circles all the time.

631
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: I will say it was a brat until until because

632
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 1: he and my mom are very very similar in how

633
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: they process information and negotiate conflict, which is to say,

634
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 1: it got very loud sometimes loud. Did you could you imagine?

635
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 1: Can you imagine? So they they're both really stubborn, and

636
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: they they're also they're not bigger, but with each other.

637
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,200
Speaker 1: They would bicker and like my dad and I are

638
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: like no, thank you. I would be like, oh, this

639
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 1: is this is some shade on me. They would be

640
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,360
Speaker 1: like fighting because Aaron wouldn't want to do something. My

641
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,880
Speaker 1: mom would be trying to, you know, parent with authority,

642
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,319
Speaker 1: and I would be like feeling the stress of that

643
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: and I would go in write room and cry and

644
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,839
Speaker 1: write poems. I am not kidding. I wish I were,

645
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 1: but I've always been a caricature of myself. That's beautiful.

646
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: I think I did the poem things I did. I

647
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,680
Speaker 1: drew a lot more visual. That was my outlet. But

648
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: that sounds that all tracks. I don't think all of

649
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 1: that track. Absolutely, I'm gonna go. Well, by the time

650
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 1: this comes out of that, this will have happened already.

651
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:45,280
Speaker 1: But I'm spending a whole weekend with him at your parents.

652
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I can't wait. I've seen pictures of

653
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 1: the house. Lovely. Aaron himself has described it as a

654
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 1: Republican man, so like that. Actually that's very I can't wait.

655
00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: I can't wait. But I mean gorgeous, gorgeous. I got

656
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 1: I've worked a couple of times at like very recently,

657
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: and then like a number of summers ago, I worked

658
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 1: um at this little theater in Silverthorn, which is like

659
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 1: twenty minutes away from Breckinridge, where my parents places. So

660
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,759
Speaker 1: I got to stay there. And I gotta say, when

661
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 1: you can live very comfortably, it does make usual actor

662
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 1: housing very unattracted me. But as we talked about the family,

663
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 1: the upbringing. We should ask the question that we are

664
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:31,399
Speaker 1: every single guest, And I truly I have such suspense

665
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: an anticipation of Joe's answer to the question, which is

666
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: what is the culture that made you say? Culturists? For me?

667
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: What made you move in a cultural direction? And I

668
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 1: really I'm so curious to know what this. There was

669
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 1: a certain smell in the air, and you didn't know

670
00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:46,839
Speaker 1: what it was at the time, but you found out

671
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 1: later that it was culture after you followed the smell

672
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:58,760
Speaker 1: to that theater. Theater. That seems actly. That feels right, Yeah, Um, well,

673
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:04,399
Speaker 1: I will say I have until more recently, I didn't

674
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,360
Speaker 1: really have anything but culture to think or talk about,

675
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 1: So I never wanted to go in any other direction.

676
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 1: Like my aunt tells me stories about She's like, you've

677
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 1: been talking about moving to New York and being in

678
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 1: the theater since you were four. I'm like, oh, really,

679
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 1: I don't even remember that. Um. But as far as

680
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 1: like small specific things, because I thought about this, I

681
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 1: was like, God, it feels like overwhelming because it's like

682
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 1: that's all I was interested in. So I snowed it

683
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 1: down to a more generic list and we'll use it

684
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,279
Speaker 1: as a jumping off. I think I'm gonna live in

685
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 1: Harlem to be close to the subways pop down. I

686
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 1: think by that time, Yeah, yeah, it'll be great. Yeah. Um.

687
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,160
Speaker 1: This is This is a very ridiculous and revealing story

688
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: about myself that my grandmother used to love to tell

689
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 1: when I was like two. She she was just called

690
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,919
Speaker 1: me punkin Monday. She's like, hey, Punkin and I said,

691
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 1: I am not a pumpkin. I am Amy renee Jackson,

692
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 1: which spoilers that's the real name. The Joe is a

693
00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 1: nickname I got in college and it was just bouncing

694
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 1: and it stuck. So love this list. Okay, so the

695
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: the list would probably primarily like most influential would include, uh,

696
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:30,400
Speaker 1: British television, specifically British comedy Allah, a bit of Friend, Lorie, Blackadder,

697
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 1: Jeeves and Wooster, and then like British Murder mysteries u um.

698
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 1: And then we have Broadway because I've never not been

699
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 1: a nerd uh. So that includes like movie musicals and

700
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 1: soundtracks to them, as well as original Broadway cast recordings,

701
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 1: anything I can get my hands on old Hollywood, Like

702
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,800
Speaker 1: I grew up like my dad and I would watch

703
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,520
Speaker 1: like any any Carrie Grant or Catherine Hepburn film love

704
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 1: all that shared that, Oh well, I mean because we

705
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 1: grew up in the same house, but aren't even also

706
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 1: said Agatha Christie, just like well. And then the last

707
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 1: one being books like I read very thing, and I

708
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: was a big old snob as a kid, so it

709
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 1: was either going to be like something mysterious maybe with ghosts,

710
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 1: or it was going to be like literal tour so um.

711
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,279
Speaker 1: And I was like the kid that would like we'd

712
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 1: be walking from the cafeteria back to the classroom and

713
00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 1: I'd be reading using my periphery to now because I

714
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,760
Speaker 1: was like, I don't fun. I like this book. Yeah,

715
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:33,239
Speaker 1: it's more interesting than all of you safe, than hallway safe,

716
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 1: than hallways safe. I could see where I was going.

717
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,279
Speaker 1: I'm so jealous of those people. Henry bothers me when

718
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 1: he's looking at his phone and not looking around. I

719
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,400
Speaker 1: asked my pet peep of mine, I think everyone should

720
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,960
Speaker 1: be looking up. That's a little differ in a hallway

721
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 1: when you're walking single file in elementary I forget that

722
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: the kids have to walk in line, yes, not navigating

723
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 1: a middle school busy hallway. Not that shark infested waters. No,

724
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: but when you're walking in the street in public, that's different.

725
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 1: You know. It's actually rule of culture number seventeen. These

726
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: kids school walking in two straight lines. It's very gendered.

727
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we did used to do that. Didn't walk

728
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: into lines. Oh there was two lines, a boy line

729
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 1: and a girl line in my school. Wait, Amy, did

730
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 1: you spend most of your childhood Do you spend any

731
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,480
Speaker 1: time in Colorado? Was it mostly Texas? Mostly Texas? I

732
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: finished in high school there, I did. We moved when

733
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: I was sixteen, so I did uh, junior and senior

734
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,799
Speaker 1: year in Colorado, and then you know, I would go

735
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 1: back there, right and like now that my parents had

736
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,440
Speaker 1: this place in break that's where I prefer to go.

737
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 1: We can infer that you were doing theater all thought

738
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:46,839
Speaker 1: your childhood. You couldn't You couldn't stop me if I

739
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,200
Speaker 1: wasn't doing it with a group. And then it was

740
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 1: forced upon my family. It was a solo act in

741
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,480
Speaker 1: the house. Yes, or I would in script Aaron, you know,

742
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,759
Speaker 1: like I have a dress up moment there. You know,

743
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 1: also like I'm of the age where everyone didn't have

744
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,840
Speaker 1: a video camera, so they my parents borrowed one from France.

745
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:11,960
Speaker 1: So there is this legendary, legendary video and I am

746
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 1: I think, I want to say, fifth grade, and Aaron's

747
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,759
Speaker 1: third grade. So Aaron is still adorable, and I am

748
00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:19,200
Speaker 1: just at the age where it's like that's a little

749
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 1: much kid, you know what I mean. But we're so

750
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 1: excited and you can watch it and your parents like, okay, okay,

751
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 1: like as we're like just vignette to vignette to vignette,

752
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: but like original pieces, some similar inspired. We did a

753
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 1: version of Cinderella, and we also did plenty of you know,

754
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 1: different we'd also did a tour of the house. Um,

755
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,400
Speaker 1: but we did the most the most humilian, anything like

756
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 1: this is the thing that you put on. Oh yeah,

757
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 1: I was Aaron jumping on the bed or look at

758
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 1: this room shocking the Aeron jumping on this bed too,

759
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:54,319
Speaker 1: you know. Um, but I did Oh my god, I

760
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,359
Speaker 1: thought I could do ventrilo quism. I was wrong, but

761
00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 1: I was committed. And I bit of me singing some

762
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,400
Speaker 1: song I don't remember what with You know those little

763
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:08,399
Speaker 1: like gift prepackaged gift boxes that when you open them up,

764
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:12,040
Speaker 1: they make noise. Okay, for whatever reason, I have one

765
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 1: of those and I'm making that my puppet. I mean,

766
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 1: it is excruciating. And then they're so long. The videos

767
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 1: there's so long. I mean, the thing is now it's genius,

768
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,480
Speaker 1: Like are they were too the vignettes they needed to

769
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 1: be cut, but now it's like, please let this never stop.

770
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,839
Speaker 1: The other thing that I then did was hitch up

771
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 1: my elastic waste denim pants and do a Jualil White

772
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 1: and Family Matters impression as was not good, authentic or appropriate.

773
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: Hey you had all three. You had all three distaste

774
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 1: the distaste you could nies. It was a time. You

775
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 1: know what, you get a free pass, free pass. So

776
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 1: Aaron proud of him now or whatever? Yeah? No, I

777
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 1: I mean, are you kidding? I'm so thrilled for and

778
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 1: I'm so proud of him always, but it's just ridiculous now.

779
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 1: I ran into a friend on the train today and

780
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 1: we're just like like, oh, hey, I haven't seen her

781
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:15,040
Speaker 1: in like two years something. We're trying to She's like, oh,

782
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:16,839
Speaker 1: by the way, big fan of Aaron. I was like, right,

783
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I know I'm biased, but right, but both

784
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 1: of you are just this like I don't know, it

785
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 1: feels like you don't really get these sort of like

786
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 1: sibling talent pairings anymore. And you guys just are are

787
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 1: in your own lanes, but then you also crossed like

788
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,839
Speaker 1: merge lanes sometimes too. It's it's so wonderful. I mean,

789
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,040
Speaker 1: like the first time I ever saw Joe was out

790
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 1: of Geisha for all people, and I think I blew

791
00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 1: my socks off? Um is that this is that the expression?

792
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 1: But any of my socks off? I can't believe I'm

793
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,720
Speaker 1: correcting you for once in my life to my mind,

794
00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 1: my mind and of course sucked my socks socks off

795
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 1: that age old adage, that age old adage. I will

796
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 1: say this about Aaron, like, you know, people and people

797
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,360
Speaker 1: in the comedy community oftentimes they go on to greater success,

798
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: and you know, sometimes there's that feeling of like, oh

799
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 1: it happened. It happened for them amongst the community, like

800
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,040
Speaker 1: like when will it happen for me? Like you're happy

801
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:14,920
Speaker 1: for them, but you're like there's like this like a

802
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 1: little with Aaron and Josh. I think everyone in the

803
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:23,759
Speaker 1: community that everybody I know was just like leaping to

804
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 1: their feet. Absolutely, we're so happy for them, so proud

805
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,240
Speaker 1: of them. That's not just because there are dear friends

806
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:35,319
Speaker 1: because they are funny, have marked their guts out together

807
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,760
Speaker 1: for years. Like it's such a great example of finding

808
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 1: like your people and finding your voice and then that

809
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: leading you to greater success. It's tremendous. It's very exciting.

810
00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 1: It's inspiring to me, you know, it really is. I mean,

811
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,839
Speaker 1: and just like to know that, um, especially Aaron. I mean,

812
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 1: Aaron was a teacher at UCB for quite a long

813
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 1: time and he just had I think probably thousands of

814
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,640
Speaker 1: like students coming to see him like over the years,

815
00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 1: like and now to see him on television and it's

816
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 1: just so great. I've recently went to the went to

817
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 1: the taping of The Opposition to see that piece that

818
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 1: they did with Kim Davis. That was unreal amazing. So

819
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 1: the gay who would be Clark, the gay who would

820
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 1: be Clerk? Again? Riffing on classic films? Yes, you know, okay,

821
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 1: can we talk about a bit of friing Laura, because

822
00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:24,960
Speaker 1: I feel like I completely missed the boat on that,

823
00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:27,080
Speaker 1: so did I and I would love to hear just so.

824
00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:31,440
Speaker 1: My my parents always loved Blackadder and Jesus and Wooster,

825
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 1: and then of course through those you find Laurie Stephen Fry.

826
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 1: So so we had this one, I think we had

827
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 1: like the VHS was like the best of a bit

828
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,919
Speaker 1: of Frying Laurie. So I watched that a million times,

829
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:42,359
Speaker 1: but now you can find a ton of it like

830
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 1: available online. But I just I just love the way

831
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 1: they worked together and they're just so I don't know,

832
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 1: they're so funny and they do so you know, they're

833
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 1: fantastic sketch duo in the fact that like there's not

834
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 1: always one like playing the alpha and one playing the beta.

835
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:01,719
Speaker 1: You know, they really like play around with all sorts

836
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:05,399
Speaker 1: of different ways in which they position themselves towards each other.

837
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,080
Speaker 1: But also just like the runs that they would do,

838
00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 1: there's this one. Really it's it's like unbelievable that it

839
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 1: is like such a funny sketch because you're like, the

840
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 1: premise is just like a guy interviewing another guy who

841
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 1: likes to talk about language, or like, okay, fine, but

842
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 1: Stephen Fry does this whole thing where the character is

843
00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:25,319
Speaker 1: just so over the top, so listen to me, listen

844
00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:30,400
Speaker 1: to me language, and and just it's it's the commitment

845
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:33,520
Speaker 1: to like the fullness of the performance that I as

846
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:39,200
Speaker 1: someone who's never been understated, really responsed we identify with

847
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 1: you than perhaps that's why I enjoy listening to the pod.

848
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:48,600
Speaker 1: So I feel, yeah, I feel like that is just I.

849
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 1: I I'm sort of on the other side of the

850
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:52,560
Speaker 1: glass with in terms of like just British comedy in general.

851
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,200
Speaker 1: I feel like I just I never fully got my

852
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 1: chance with it. You really like I mean, and I

853
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 1: would imagine you know you like Train the Yelman. I

854
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 1: don't really know you. I like have seen a little bit.

855
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, like if if it if I

856
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:10,560
Speaker 1: wasn't watching it when I was much younger, then I

857
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:14,640
Speaker 1: I missed a lot because I stopped watching TV because

858
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 1: I was like doing theater right like now, I'm I'm

859
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,840
Speaker 1: so behind. I think you would have a deep appreciation

860
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:26,080
Speaker 1: for Tracy Aellman like because she's truly a genius, truly

861
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,600
Speaker 1: a genius, like I think one of the best impressionist

862
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 1: character creators just comedians that's out there. And actually, this

863
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,839
Speaker 1: is another really good segue, because she played Jack's mother

864
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:44,799
Speaker 1: in the film. And I haven't I've heard that you

865
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,759
Speaker 1: are about to grace us with something a little bit

866
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:51,480
Speaker 1: of a medley right now about what we're about to

867
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 1: do yes, this is uh, this is the piece I

868
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,399
Speaker 1: got asked to do at this concert at Joe's Pub

869
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,320
Speaker 1: last year called Sanheimer's. It was actually the day before

870
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:03,480
Speaker 1: I don't think so Honey Live, it was, yeah, right

871
00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: right around that time. So, uh, this is a mash

872
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 1: up that was arranged by the brilliant Stephen Quaevis, who

873
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 1: was one of the m d s on the Kiki

874
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 1: Boots tour. Uh, so it is it was if Sandheimis

875
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:19,560
Speaker 1: is basically the birthday Joe's Pub concert that Maggie Larkin

876
00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:22,319
Speaker 1: and David Levy produced every year, and so this past

877
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 1: year they did sometimes mixtape and so they had a

878
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:28,160
Speaker 1: bunch of Sandheime mixed with other shows. So this is

879
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:31,719
Speaker 1: called Into the Fun Home and I just think it's

880
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:35,000
Speaker 1: so smart and I loved it. I especially love I

881
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:36,759
Speaker 1: especially love doing it, which doesn't makes sense when you

882
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:41,520
Speaker 1: hear it doing it in slightly more conservative community because

883
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:45,359
Speaker 1: it is just a little of like, oh, so that's

884
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 1: I think that's all we need to know. Great, let's

885
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:58,600
Speaker 1: listen to it. M M, what happened last night? Are

886
00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:06,440
Speaker 1: you really here? Joan Joan Joan, Joan, Joan, Hi Joone

887
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 1: Lilick Up Joan. Oh my god, last night, Oh my god,

888
00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Oh my god, Oh my god. Last night,

889
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:20,800
Speaker 1: Mother said straight ahead, not to delay or be misled.

890
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:26,600
Speaker 1: I should have hated her advice, but she seems so.

891
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:32,160
Speaker 1: When your way, you're pining your on your oone in

892
00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 1: a world like no, like you've ever known that the

893
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 1: sky is leading the earth to stone. You're free to

894
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:40,799
Speaker 1: do whatever pleases you, exploring things you'd never dare because

895
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: you don't care. When suddenly there's a big, tall, terrible Joan.

896
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:51,959
Speaker 1: It's not at the door, big you, tall, terrible lady John,

897
00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 1: sweeping the floor, and she gives you food, and she

898
00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,759
Speaker 1: gives you rest, and she draws it close to her

899
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:06,280
Speaker 1: giant breast. I got so excited, I was too enthusiastic.

900
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 1: Thank you for not laughing. Well, you laughed a little

901
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,400
Speaker 1: bit at one point when I was touching you and

902
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:14,600
Speaker 1: said I might lose consciousness, which you said was adorable.

903
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:16,719
Speaker 1: And I just have to trust that you don't think

904
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,319
Speaker 1: I'm an idiot or some kind of an animal. I

905
00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 1: never left control due to overwhelming lust. But I must say,

906
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:33,120
Speaker 1: on changing my major to Joan, I'm changing my major

907
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:38,000
Speaker 1: to sex with Joan, I'm changing my major to sex

908
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:43,360
Speaker 1: and with Joan with a minor and kissing Joan for

909
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:48,240
Speaker 1: in study to Jones's inner thighs, a seminar on Jones'

910
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:56,040
Speaker 1: ass in her leviyes and jones crazy brown eyes. Joan,

911
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 1: I feel like hercules. Oh God, that sounds ridiculous. Just

912
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: keep on sleeping for this and I'll work on calming

913
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:04,000
Speaker 1: down so by the time you've woken up, I'll be cool.

914
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 1: I'll be collected, and I have found some dignity. But

915
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:10,360
Speaker 1: who needs dignity because this is so much better and

916
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,799
Speaker 1: radiating happiness. Will you stay here with me for the

917
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: rest of the semester. We won't need any food. We'll

918
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 1: live on sex alone. Sex with Joan. And she showed

919
00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 1: me things, many beautiful things that I have thought to explore.

920
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,520
Speaker 1: They were off my path, so I never had dared.

921
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 1: I had been so careful, I never had cared, and

922
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 1: she made me feel excited, well excited and scared. I

923
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:46,799
Speaker 1: am writing a thesis on Joan. It's a cutting edge

924
00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:50,800
Speaker 1: field and my mind is blown. I will gladly stay

925
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:55,920
Speaker 1: up every night too alone my compulsory skills with Joan,

926
00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:02,759
Speaker 1: I will study my way on her spine familiarize myself

927
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:11,239
Speaker 1: with her well made outline while sheer researches mine. And

928
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,719
Speaker 1: do you think of all the things you've seen? And

929
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 1: do you wish that you could live in will between

930
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:26,520
Speaker 1: and her back again, only different after the skares, And

931
00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:30,399
Speaker 1: I know things now, many valuable things that I had

932
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:35,920
Speaker 1: known before. Do not put your faith in a capa gothood.

933
00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:39,160
Speaker 1: They will not protect you the way that they should.

934
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,120
Speaker 1: And to texture care with strangers. Even flowers have their

935
00:52:42,200 --> 00:53:01,200
Speaker 1: dangerous and the scary is exciting. Nice. It's different than good. Yeah, genius,

936
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Okay, I love that because I feel

937
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:10,120
Speaker 1: like I never I feel like changing my major, changing

938
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 1: my major never got it's full like moment. I feel

939
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 1: like it's so good. Well, I feel like Ring of Keys,

940
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:19,520
Speaker 1: like walked away with them. Also, that's also because Sidney

941
00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:23,399
Speaker 1: Lucas was just transcended with that song, and because it's

942
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:27,239
Speaker 1: so like um, the feel of it isn't anthemic, but

943
00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:30,719
Speaker 1: the the subject matter is like iconic and anthemic. But

944
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:33,440
Speaker 1: changing my major, I think is it's so funny and

945
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:36,240
Speaker 1: so beautiful and so moving and so like, oh my god,

946
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:41,759
Speaker 1: like I remember like that girl that you know that

947
00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 1: time in your life where it just awaken it awakens,

948
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:47,000
Speaker 1: it awakens you. You feel like that's all you want

949
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:49,640
Speaker 1: to do is to like sleep with someone you know,

950
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,239
Speaker 1: like mash your body with someone else's body and just

951
00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:55,239
Speaker 1: sit there and like watch them sleep so you can

952
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:59,799
Speaker 1: look at their cheek bins, you know, very evocative. So

953
00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:02,319
Speaker 1: um and Into the Woods also part of that. I

954
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:04,919
Speaker 1: have a question for you, So are you a fan

955
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:09,000
Speaker 1: of the recent sort of renaissance of the movie musicals

956
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,319
Speaker 1: and do you like have you seen you know, did

957
00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 1: you see that? I would love to hear your opinion

958
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,440
Speaker 1: on the Greatest Showman. I would love to hear, like

959
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:19,080
Speaker 1: what you think of the sort of adaptations that have

960
00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:21,759
Speaker 1: been happening, and like what your thoughts are on all

961
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:26,120
Speaker 1: of them. I I'm a fan of anything that employs

962
00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:31,000
Speaker 1: more theater people so and especially employs them in a

963
00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:32,880
Speaker 1: thing that's going to make them a lot of money.

964
00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:36,600
Speaker 1: I like Kiala Suttle, Come on, she performing the oscars,

965
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:40,200
Speaker 1: Like that's how she did, you know? Like I'm thrilled

966
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:43,879
Speaker 1: and that sort of thing happens, I don't necessarily need

967
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,799
Speaker 1: to take it in like I will, like I went

968
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:48,640
Speaker 1: and saw into the Woods because that was my favorite

969
00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:52,719
Speaker 1: show like for like all of adolescence, like like talk

970
00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:55,880
Speaker 1: about okay, talk about like a culture moment like Aaron

971
00:54:55,920 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 1: and I watched that so many times that like video yes,

972
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:09,160
Speaker 1: and Joanna Gleeson, who right, so brilliant being in the

973
00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:12,960
Speaker 1: same show as Bernadette Peters as the Witch and you

974
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,279
Speaker 1: win the Tony. Yeah, that's crazy. You know that's at

975
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,560
Speaker 1: that played at the Martin Beck which is now the

976
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:20,840
Speaker 1: Al Hirschfeld were Kinky Boots is so like, you know,

977
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:22,239
Speaker 1: sometimes I'm just going to work. I'm all right, I'm

978
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:23,879
Speaker 1: gonna sit here, I'm gonna take notes, blah blah blah.

979
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:26,520
Speaker 1: But then sometimes I, oh, my god, I am at

980
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 1: this theater that I used to I used to watch

981
00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:31,680
Speaker 1: that stage on the daily. Like I go into the

982
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:33,480
Speaker 1: dressing room and say hey to somebody, I'm like, this

983
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:37,400
Speaker 1: is Berna at Peter's dressing room in seven when she

984
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:40,000
Speaker 1: has that hair, you know, I when I sometimes I'm

985
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,239
Speaker 1: able to take a step back and go like it's

986
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:46,440
Speaker 1: it makes that like it makes no sense to the

987
00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:49,120
Speaker 1: adolescent me because it's like I wanted it so badly

988
00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:50,839
Speaker 1: and now there's a part of me that can take

989
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:54,920
Speaker 1: it for granted. Which is it. Yeah, he's just like

990
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:56,840
Speaker 1: I'm just doing my thing, not that it's like bad,

991
00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:58,800
Speaker 1: just like, oh yeah, I'm just going to the stage

992
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 1: door instead of like that's awesome, that's really cool. Like

993
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 1: and and to never lose that sense of wonder as

994
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:09,960
Speaker 1: something I work to remind myself is important. You know.

995
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:13,600
Speaker 1: It's actually rule of number, rule of culture number twelve.

996
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:20,520
Speaker 1: As one said, never that sense of wonder. I think

997
00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:24,080
Speaker 1: that is such a good exercise and just perspective. Probably

998
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:27,879
Speaker 1: it's just like, yeah, you're sucking working at that theater.

999
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. And well, hold not one second. Okay,

1000
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:33,759
Speaker 1: well let's talk about the movie musical again. That's what

1001
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:37,800
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Can I just say again? Kala Settled performed

1002
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:43,360
Speaker 1: on the Oscars, She got her most, she got a

1003
00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 1: camera circling the stage in that quiet part of the

1004
00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:50,040
Speaker 1: bridge moment. She was amazing. She was bringing it home well.

1005
00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,680
Speaker 1: And then even you have someone like Adina Menzel who

1006
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 1: was like a huge Broadway star but like America didn't

1007
00:56:55,600 --> 00:57:01,200
Speaker 1: know until until the wickedly talented Adel Dizise moment. God bless,

1008
00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:03,000
Speaker 1: I don't you know what I think people don't talk

1009
00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,920
Speaker 1: enough about that moment. Is the way he says, tell

1010
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:11,279
Speaker 1: that's he is almost more mind blowing than I. Just

1011
00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 1: it's just like, what are you doing now? I will

1012
00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:18,440
Speaker 1: never forget that for the rest of my life. You

1013
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:23,560
Speaker 1: never gets old. It's always a real scream. But but

1014
00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 1: like that's something where it's just like she was already

1015
00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 1: like headline and how many brought my shows and super

1016
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:34,440
Speaker 1: famous and she was three cultural phenomenal and then but

1017
00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:36,920
Speaker 1: then she like does this thing. People like, oh, that's

1018
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,600
Speaker 1: Elsa and it's like she's a different level. You know,

1019
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:43,200
Speaker 1: she's a we say she's the Rihanna of the suburbs.

1020
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:48,760
Speaker 1: She's the minivan Rihanna. That's actually really culture number sixty eight.

1021
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:56,680
Speaker 1: Dina Menzel is Rihanna. She is like I don't care

1022
00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 1: for Rihanna. You know who I like Dina Manzell like

1023
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:05,360
Speaker 1: the it's oh, that's good. She probably could have some

1024
00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 1: more hits we can aspire to to career success. That

1025
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 1: it didn't please kidding money, I mean, who thought she

1026
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:14,760
Speaker 1: was going to be part of three cultural phenomenons? If

1027
00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:17,040
Speaker 1: you don't think it will be four and five and six, honey,

1028
00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:20,960
Speaker 1: I don't think so, honey. Out when she did you

1029
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:24,400
Speaker 1: see if then yes, I did. It was it was

1030
00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:28,439
Speaker 1: not my favorite moment, decidedly not not the favorite moment ever.

1031
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 1: That moment when the curtain rises and she just goes

1032
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:35,440
Speaker 1: it's me. I was like, oh, fuck, you like it.

1033
00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:39,200
Speaker 1: She's such a star. Of course you can be like,

1034
00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:43,400
Speaker 1: it's me. She's a star. That's the thing is, It's

1035
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 1: like that show was a little tough and her it's

1036
00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:49,840
Speaker 1: so funny that her top note was just like that

1037
00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 1: was like she didn't go higher than that, Like the

1038
00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:56,120
Speaker 1: score was very written like to her current A week

1039
00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:58,800
Speaker 1: is brutal, it's crazy, and I have to tell you,

1040
00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,560
Speaker 1: it wasn't like it was challenging, you know, when she

1041
00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 1: still when I saw she sounded fair, she still she did.

1042
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,040
Speaker 1: She sounded fierce and she can also act her ass

1043
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:09,400
Speaker 1: off and people forget that. People forget that Adina Menzel

1044
00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:13,440
Speaker 1: is a real musical theater actress. And it wasn't no

1045
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:18,720
Speaker 1: mistake that alphabet became iconic. She certainly did, and you know,

1046
00:59:18,800 --> 00:59:21,280
Speaker 1: it's it's it's just not a mistake. At Dina Menzel,

1047
00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:23,800
Speaker 1: I think is someone that people like take for granted

1048
00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: or make a lot of jokes about exclusively. Um, people

1049
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:30,160
Speaker 1: like you, I mean like I'm part of this community.

1050
00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:34,240
Speaker 1: We all make like what you do. I've never made

1051
00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 1: a joke at a Dina. You make it your career.

1052
00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:40,120
Speaker 1: Bowen Yank goes on stage and it's a Dina Manzel

1053
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:42,800
Speaker 1: cracks from the moment. That's whenever I've seen need to

1054
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:47,040
Speaker 1: stand up. That's been the bulk of humans. Adina Menzel

1055
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:52,200
Speaker 1: crap punched down at punches down at Ada. I gotta

1056
00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:54,479
Speaker 1: say I watched Frozen again this weekend after not seeing

1057
00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:56,280
Speaker 1: it since the theater. Oh my god, now we're going

1058
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 1: to get shape. No, no, no, because I've been known

1059
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:00,560
Speaker 1: to shoot on Frozen. You have been to do that.

1060
01:00:00,640 --> 01:00:03,440
Speaker 1: I enjoyed it much more than this second time. In

1061
01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 1: Adina is a really good, really good voice acting. She's

1062
01:00:07,760 --> 01:00:11,560
Speaker 1: extremely talented. Have you heard or seen anything of Frozen?

1063
01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:15,919
Speaker 1: The musical I saw in Colorado? Was there? And how

1064
01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:19,000
Speaker 1: was it? It's fun? I mean, you know, I think

1065
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:21,800
Speaker 1: it's hard to take a short film and adapt it

1066
01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,920
Speaker 1: for the big stage, you know, So it definitely was

1067
01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:26,840
Speaker 1: the kind of thing where I was feeling like, you know,

1068
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:29,360
Speaker 1: I would enjoy this more if I were younger, you know.

1069
01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:31,880
Speaker 1: But everyone's doing great work and it looks beautiful and

1070
01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:35,080
Speaker 1: there's some fist singing. Yeah I heard that. Let it

1071
01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 1: Go is quite the moment. Yeah, well, I mean it's

1072
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:40,440
Speaker 1: Casey Levey. So I talk about an instrument, Oh my god.

1073
01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:43,600
Speaker 1: Like I've saw her in hair and in first Daughter

1074
01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:45,840
Speaker 1: Suite at the Public and other stuff I'm forgetting, but

1075
01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:48,040
Speaker 1: like that is one of those voices that it's just

1076
01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:52,880
Speaker 1: like like you could bathe in it. Yeah, I would.

1077
01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,760
Speaker 1: I would definitely bathe an Amy Joe's voice, Darling, I've

1078
01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:59,520
Speaker 1: taken baths in it. I've taken baths in it, to

1079
01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:04,320
Speaker 1: be honest. A moonlight swim, just a moonlight moonlight the vocals.

1080
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 1: We have to talk to Amy Joe about her Disney

1081
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:10,520
Speaker 1: trip because you just went on a Disney trip recently. Yes,

1082
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:12,840
Speaker 1: And also what my favorite thing about it is that

1083
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:15,480
Speaker 1: you felt you felt yourself getting under the weather but

1084
01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:19,240
Speaker 1: soldiered through. Oh honey, I came home and three days

1085
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:22,880
Speaker 1: later got other flu I am only now like recently

1086
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:25,760
Speaker 1: over it. But you know, it's you know what it's

1087
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:27,400
Speaker 1: because I was like, I'm not going to go back

1088
01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:29,640
Speaker 1: to the hotel. We're going to Epcot. You know, no,

1089
01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 1: you have that's actually a rule of culture. Number nineteen,

1090
01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:36,200
Speaker 1: you're going, don't go to the hotel. Okay, Well, we're

1091
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:38,000
Speaker 1: so sorry to hear that you weren't feeling well. Well,

1092
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:41,440
Speaker 1: it's all behind me now, thank god. All run til

1093
01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:45,760
Speaker 1: highlights of the trip. Well, we were talking a bit beforehand. Um,

1094
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:48,240
Speaker 1: so we went. It was my first time going when

1095
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:51,000
Speaker 1: Pandora was open, and I have a friend who was

1096
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:53,040
Speaker 1: actually one of my dressers on Mermaid, one of the

1097
01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:54,320
Speaker 1: three people that it took to get me in and

1098
01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:57,520
Speaker 1: out of the costume. And she shortly after Mermaid relocated

1099
01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:01,600
Speaker 1: down to uh Disney, she she was working there, and

1100
01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:03,440
Speaker 1: so then I saw her briefly the last time I

1101
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:05,560
Speaker 1: was there, and I was like, Hey, I'm gonna be

1102
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:07,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be around. Are you still working this? She's like,

1103
01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:09,560
Speaker 1: oh no, I work at Pandora now and we've only

1104
01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:11,080
Speaker 1: been able to get a fast past Ford the River.

1105
01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:14,720
Speaker 1: I remember going messaging you like it's just like Flight

1106
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:17,560
Speaker 1: of the Avatar situation. Is this gonna be worth waiting

1107
01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:20,200
Speaker 1: for six hours? You're like, well yes and no and Bud,

1108
01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:23,439
Speaker 1: but no, no, no. But it was useful because we're

1109
01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:25,960
Speaker 1: also like I was there with my parents and a

1110
01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:29,960
Speaker 1: friend and none of us are like super hardcore Parkers,

1111
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:31,720
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. We were like, I must

1112
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:34,680
Speaker 1: complete this or I will fee. We were like, great,

1113
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 1: if we're gonna have to wait three hours, we are

1114
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:39,400
Speaker 1: not doing it, you know. We there are things we

1115
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:42,840
Speaker 1: would rather do with our time. So I messaged her

1116
01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:44,080
Speaker 1: and she was like, well, let me know when it

1117
01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:46,720
Speaker 1: gets closer, because I work a couple of those rides,

1118
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:49,080
Speaker 1: so maybe I can work something kind of depending on

1119
01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:50,680
Speaker 1: how things work out. So I'm like messaging her on

1120
01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:52,480
Speaker 1: Instagram and like the number I have to text her

1121
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:53,920
Speaker 1: as like an old number, so I can't get there.

1122
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,160
Speaker 1: We go on the river ride, which I thought was beautiful,

1123
01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:00,360
Speaker 1: like all that was like I love a like let

1124
01:03:00,360 --> 01:03:02,720
Speaker 1: me just sit down and look at ship. Okay, so

1125
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:05,120
Speaker 1: it's beautiful, but it's also like it's boring, but it's you.

1126
01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:09,640
Speaker 1: It's not serene, but the animatronic at the end is pretty.

1127
01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:12,040
Speaker 1: It's really cool, like and it's just I just sitting

1128
01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:14,160
Speaker 1: there like I'm just enjoying looking at like they had

1129
01:03:14,160 --> 01:03:18,520
Speaker 1: those leaves where and then you're seeing like the frogs

1130
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 1: on the other side of it, which you know, no,

1131
01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:23,280
Speaker 1: one's just a screen, but I'm like, it looks so cool. Like,

1132
01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:26,040
Speaker 1: I loved that. So we're like leaving that and I'm like, well,

1133
01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:28,800
Speaker 1: I haven't seen my friend Mamie. And I was like, well,

1134
01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:31,080
Speaker 1: I guess you know she she's working, so she probably

1135
01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:33,040
Speaker 1: can't get back to me. So we're like we're literally

1136
01:03:33,080 --> 01:03:34,920
Speaker 1: walking out of the ride, like trying to get out,

1137
01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:38,720
Speaker 1: and she comes walking sway, so you know, it was

1138
01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 1: great to see her because she's adorable and I love her.

1139
01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:44,320
Speaker 1: And then she was like, oh, you guys just wrote this.

1140
01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:49,040
Speaker 1: Let's get you over to the right up to the

1141
01:03:49,040 --> 01:03:51,080
Speaker 1: fast best line. Can you work some magic for these

1142
01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:52,680
Speaker 1: folks here today? And the like, sure can't. So we

1143
01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:55,800
Speaker 1: went straight to fast like a giddy So it's great.

1144
01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:59,440
Speaker 1: And then it was so fun, it was incredible. It's

1145
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:02,920
Speaker 1: just stunned saved it so so it turned out to

1146
01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:06,120
Speaker 1: be like one of those, like a truly magical Disney moment.

1147
01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 1: It was great. And then we went so, you know,

1148
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:10,439
Speaker 1: we did a bunch of that stuff and we went

1149
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:13,479
Speaker 1: to Universal and so I hadn't been to Harry Potter

1150
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:18,080
Speaker 1: World before, and again me liking a serene ride. My

1151
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,560
Speaker 1: favorite part was the Hogwarts Express going back and forth.

1152
01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:25,520
Speaker 1: It's great. I just like to ride trains anyway. But

1153
01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:28,080
Speaker 1: it's so cute and it's all well done and like

1154
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:31,160
Speaker 1: I just thought it was. The attention to detail was incredible.

1155
01:04:31,320 --> 01:04:33,760
Speaker 1: That's really what fuels me. I'm like, I like this

1156
01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:35,480
Speaker 1: attention to I just want to go in the shops

1157
01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 1: to look and see what they have up on the

1158
01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:39,640
Speaker 1: second level. We'll surely, I mean. The best part of

1159
01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:42,720
Speaker 1: of Diagon Alley and of hogs Mean is it is

1160
01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:46,560
Speaker 1: just so transportive. It's you walk in and it's literally

1161
01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:50,000
Speaker 1: it's literally the shot from the film. Yeah, that's what's

1162
01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:52,520
Speaker 1: so crazy is that they were able to accomplish that,

1163
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:54,200
Speaker 1: like whatever, it is like a trick of the eye,

1164
01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:56,840
Speaker 1: especially when you round the corner and you see hot

1165
01:04:56,880 --> 01:05:00,240
Speaker 1: warts of the first time. It is the iconic pick. Sure,

1166
01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:03,200
Speaker 1: but it's real and they make it look so much

1167
01:05:03,200 --> 01:05:05,720
Speaker 1: bigger than it is with that kind of like lands

1168
01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:09,760
Speaker 1: that a few years ago we went. I was with

1169
01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:16,400
Speaker 1: my family and and Aaron and Jeff uh in London

1170
01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,600
Speaker 1: and we went to the studio tour, which we were

1171
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 1: all kind of like, whatever, this will be fine, and

1172
01:05:22,440 --> 01:05:25,520
Speaker 1: I had forgotten, like no movie magic is awesome, and

1173
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,400
Speaker 1: they saved so much stuff because they didn't know what

1174
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:30,120
Speaker 1: they'd be using from film to film because the books

1175
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:32,040
Speaker 1: weren't done, and they have just so much of the

1176
01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,400
Speaker 1: practical stuff there. So you go and there's the costumes

1177
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:36,520
Speaker 1: everywhere and that basically they do like a little like

1178
01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:39,000
Speaker 1: intro video, and then you go into the Great Hall

1179
01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:41,440
Speaker 1: and you're there for like ten minutes, and then you

1180
01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:43,440
Speaker 1: have as long as you want to walk through the

1181
01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:45,560
Speaker 1: rest of the exhibit, so you can't be there for hours.

1182
01:05:45,560 --> 01:05:47,640
Speaker 1: They have like a little audio guide, and then at

1183
01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:51,280
Speaker 1: the end, the last big thing is the model of Hogwarts,

1184
01:05:52,040 --> 01:05:54,400
Speaker 1: which I was like, oh, this will be cool. Like

1185
01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:55,800
Speaker 1: Jeff walked out ahead of me. I was like looking

1186
01:05:55,840 --> 01:05:57,360
Speaker 1: at some sketches and comes and he's like, you gotta

1187
01:05:57,400 --> 01:06:00,840
Speaker 1: come in your okay, And I walked. I did crying.

1188
01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:04,840
Speaker 1: Like it's just talk about attention to detail because it's

1189
01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:06,480
Speaker 1: so small and that's the kind of stuff that you

1190
01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:09,600
Speaker 1: like see on a DVD special features. I think like

1191
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:11,439
Speaker 1: we were obsessed with Lord of the Rings in high

1192
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:13,600
Speaker 1: school and college. I guess I was in college Arrows

1193
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:17,000
Speaker 1: in high school, but like we like, here's a culture moment.

1194
01:06:17,040 --> 01:06:19,840
Speaker 1: Aaron and I together saw a Lord of the Rings

1195
01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:23,560
Speaker 1: in theaters, uh Fellowship of the Rings eight times. Oh

1196
01:06:23,640 --> 01:06:27,040
Speaker 1: my god, what is that? Over almost thirty hours? About

1197
01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:29,960
Speaker 1: four hours, but like we saw it like over Christmas

1198
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:31,960
Speaker 1: break and then we also went over the spring because

1199
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:33,560
Speaker 1: I was still in theaters. But we were just like

1200
01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:37,080
Speaker 1: our whole group of friends was like so nerdy. We're like, well,

1201
01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:38,920
Speaker 1: I gotta go back. I gotta see those horses, and

1202
01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:41,240
Speaker 1: I gotta say those a lot of horses, you know.

1203
01:06:41,640 --> 01:06:43,400
Speaker 1: And then you know, we saw the others a few

1204
01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:45,520
Speaker 1: times in theaters too, but not eight I will say,

1205
01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:58,040
Speaker 1: but the others, I'm sorry the hours in theaters, but

1206
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:03,360
Speaker 1: not eight time. No, Tony Collett's presence, not withstand. I

1207
01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:06,720
Speaker 1: love that Tony coll love. You know. That puts you

1208
01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:10,360
Speaker 1: in the company of John Early. John really has great tastes.

1209
01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:14,360
Speaker 1: He does have taste. Um okay, I do love a

1210
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:17,680
Speaker 1: good Tony Collette too, though she doesn't have you. So

1211
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:20,240
Speaker 1: in high school, like I was obsessed with the Locus

1212
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:24,600
Speaker 1: a Wild Party. I got into it. She was clean,

1213
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:26,680
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh my gosh, because I also

1214
01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:29,720
Speaker 1: loved Alan Coming, like I love that Emma with Gwyneth

1215
01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:33,120
Speaker 1: Paltrow and all of them. Like I watched that came

1216
01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:35,760
Speaker 1: out right at the appropriate time for me to be like, oh,

1217
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:41,280
Speaker 1: Jane Austen, that sounds about rock. You know. I remember

1218
01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:43,440
Speaker 1: seeing it in theaters and being like this is highly

1219
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:47,040
Speaker 1: enjoyable and who's this girl? And then like anything that

1220
01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:48,760
Speaker 1: she was in, I was like, I'm on board. And

1221
01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:51,680
Speaker 1: so then listening to that, I was so into it.

1222
01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:53,840
Speaker 1: And still it's like that fits my voice so well,

1223
01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:55,960
Speaker 1: and I love Locusa. Like all of Locusa, I just

1224
01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:58,000
Speaker 1: want to sing all the time, which is hard because

1225
01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:00,120
Speaker 1: it's not an easy composed to bring into an audition room.

1226
01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:02,720
Speaker 1: So I have to do it just for my own pleasures.

1227
01:08:04,080 --> 01:08:08,160
Speaker 1: Is Emma, what what clueless is based on? Okay? Yes, yes, yes, yes,

1228
01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:10,880
Speaker 1: it really does open a lot of doors to culture.

1229
01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:15,440
Speaker 1: I would say I think Clueless predates the Gwyneth Paltrow. Emma,

1230
01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:17,880
Speaker 1: that's probably you know. Jane Austen was out of fashion

1231
01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:22,439
Speaker 1: for a while. Yeah, now of course she Yeah, you can't.

1232
01:08:22,479 --> 01:08:27,479
Speaker 1: You can't turn around without Austin was just like, I

1233
01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:30,639
Speaker 1: might be dead, but I'm alive. Through my work matches,

1234
01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:35,720
Speaker 1: she became huge And what do you mean, Jane Jane Austen, Yeah,

1235
01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:38,120
Speaker 1: I feel like like what like what I'm saying, like

1236
01:08:38,320 --> 01:08:41,400
Speaker 1: what if for some reason, Jane Jane Austen became like

1237
01:08:42,080 --> 01:08:48,519
Speaker 1: as big as if they make like posthumously Jane Austen

1238
01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:50,400
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, like set the world on from

1239
01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:54,120
Speaker 1: my circles, Jane Austen's much bigger than Selena. You're just

1240
01:08:54,320 --> 01:08:57,280
Speaker 1: You're just hanging out with different folks. That's actually a

1241
01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,559
Speaker 1: role of culture number A hundred and one in our

1242
01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:05,479
Speaker 1: Jane Austen is much If they make the right movie,

1243
01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:07,680
Speaker 1: if they make the right adaptation, then like, yeah, like

1244
01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:09,559
Speaker 1: I want to see a modern is there a modern

1245
01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:15,280
Speaker 1: day Pride and predge? Can I gag for a second? Please?

1246
01:09:15,560 --> 01:09:19,120
Speaker 1: I just saw The Cruel Intentions musical because our friend

1247
01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:21,120
Speaker 1: Amanda Schekman is the swing for it and we saw

1248
01:09:21,120 --> 01:09:25,000
Speaker 1: her go on is uh Sarah Michelle Geller's part. It

1249
01:09:25,160 --> 01:09:30,160
Speaker 1: was really fun. I haven't even seen the movie Movie

1250
01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:34,360
Speaker 1: is Naughty. In the nineties, I was seeing some things,

1251
01:09:34,439 --> 01:09:37,080
Speaker 1: but mostly I was just watching West Side Stories, so

1252
01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:39,680
Speaker 1: I missed a lot. Good for your stuff, Well, this

1253
01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 1: is like a nineties jukee back musical, like they throw it.

1254
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:43,640
Speaker 1: It's like very one of those, like they have like

1255
01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:46,080
Speaker 1: all the hits from the nineties, like the first song

1256
01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:50,480
Speaker 1: that Amanda's things Issa on they want to Walk Across

1257
01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:54,839
Speaker 1: the five. I don't even know what that is age

1258
01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:57,120
Speaker 1: I've heard of her. This would be a good cultural

1259
01:09:57,120 --> 01:09:59,200
Speaker 1: moment for you to pick up on Melissa's you know

1260
01:09:59,240 --> 01:10:01,720
Speaker 1: what the amount of I listened very deeply to what

1261
01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:03,760
Speaker 1: I listened to, but I don't listen widely, So there's

1262
01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:08,360
Speaker 1: just a lot. But that's better because I'm I'm a

1263
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:10,000
Speaker 1: little I cast two by even Nat and then like

1264
01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:12,280
Speaker 1: nothing stick. I just get so overwhelmed, you know when

1265
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:15,559
Speaker 1: I think of what I don't that's fair, that's fair.

1266
01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 1: I get off book on a very small number of

1267
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:23,240
Speaker 1: things like I can do sometimes for you, which is

1268
01:10:23,280 --> 01:10:27,920
Speaker 1: many lyrics, which is many lyrics. But I'm like, I

1269
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:32,120
Speaker 1: know a couple of Mariah Carrie songs, sure, and she's great,

1270
01:10:32,160 --> 01:10:34,200
Speaker 1: but I just don't know you connect to? What you

1271
01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:38,839
Speaker 1: connect to? Is Sunhime number one for you? Um? Probably

1272
01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:41,880
Speaker 1: most formative, I would say, I mean as far as

1273
01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:45,519
Speaker 1: the composer that has my most number of favorite musicals,

1274
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:49,160
Speaker 1: probably because like there's Into the Woods, Sweeney Todd. Obviously,

1275
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:53,639
Speaker 1: I just think it's perfect. I love a little night music.

1276
01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:56,920
Speaker 1: I can do that from this moment right now till

1277
01:10:57,160 --> 01:10:59,519
Speaker 1: the moment I literally die on stage mid show, because

1278
01:10:59,520 --> 01:11:02,960
Speaker 1: there's like to me from now until until. Yeah, if

1279
01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:06,880
Speaker 1: I could die on que I think that would be

1280
01:11:07,040 --> 01:11:10,960
Speaker 1: like I would have achieved some kind of zen state.

1281
01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:13,400
Speaker 1: Like that would be. All I could wish for is

1282
01:11:13,439 --> 01:11:15,760
Speaker 1: to like let the playing card gracefully fall off my

1283
01:11:15,800 --> 01:11:18,799
Speaker 1: hand and be like I'm out. You know how black?

1284
01:11:20,560 --> 01:11:26,080
Speaker 1: It was perfect? I did it. Then they just wheeled

1285
01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:27,719
Speaker 1: me off stage and I wouldn't come off for curtain

1286
01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:29,200
Speaker 1: call and be like, oh, I hope she's okay. No,

1287
01:11:30,280 --> 01:11:33,040
Speaker 1: you saw die on stage? Did you see that little

1288
01:11:33,120 --> 01:11:36,519
Speaker 1: Night Music with um ms Zeta John? I did, and

1289
01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:40,000
Speaker 1: with stretched absolutely did you enjoy? I did? I mean

1290
01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:43,000
Speaker 1: like I thought it was very lush. And Aaron Lazar,

1291
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:46,960
Speaker 1: if we want to talk about vocals for today's I

1292
01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:49,200
Speaker 1: ANSO think he's incredible performance. So he played Carl Magnus,

1293
01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:51,360
Speaker 1: who's one who sings some praise of women. So I

1294
01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:54,320
Speaker 1: saw it with Aaron and my parents and like he

1295
01:11:54,360 --> 01:11:57,559
Speaker 1: goes up and the woman's and we just turned each

1296
01:11:57,560 --> 01:11:59,960
Speaker 1: other and like roll our eyes were like this guy

1297
01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:02,280
Speaker 1: seen the way that like I want to listen to

1298
01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:04,240
Speaker 1: it all the time. We also saw him because I

1299
01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:06,040
Speaker 1: saw Light in the Piazza a few times. I saw

1300
01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:07,760
Speaker 1: Matthew Morrison a couple of times, and then Aeron Lazar

1301
01:12:07,800 --> 01:12:09,639
Speaker 1: took over, and I'm like, I'm really interested to see

1302
01:12:09,640 --> 01:12:11,679
Speaker 1: how someone does after Matthew Morrison because I thought Matthew

1303
01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:15,360
Speaker 1: Morrison was very charming and tender and beautiful. And then

1304
01:12:15,400 --> 01:12:17,160
Speaker 1: Aaron Lazar comes in because he also has a much

1305
01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:19,240
Speaker 1: more like operatic sound than Matthew Morrison. I was like,

1306
01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:24,320
Speaker 1: who are you? I think he's splendid. He is great.

1307
01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 1: I saw him in the Last Ship. He's one of

1308
01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:27,800
Speaker 1: those people that I'd be like, olmos see a show

1309
01:12:27,800 --> 01:12:30,280
Speaker 1: because of that him. As far as like male vocalists,

1310
01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:35,160
Speaker 1: there's him, and then um Paul Nolan who was was

1311
01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:37,200
Speaker 1: in Bright Star. He was a little Bright Star with

1312
01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:40,439
Speaker 1: Tom Cusin. And there's do you guys know Karmen Kiau

1313
01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:42,400
Speaker 1: back in the day when I used to go to

1314
01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:49,160
Speaker 1: the wormhole of defying gravity performances stand He has done Alphaba,

1315
01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:53,760
Speaker 1: she has I think done Christine in Phantom. I can't

1316
01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:57,479
Speaker 1: even remember, but it's just stuff. You're like different all that,

1317
01:12:57,640 --> 01:12:59,840
Speaker 1: but she can and effortlessly. And then just the two

1318
01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:01,840
Speaker 1: of my brightest because they're also such incredible actors. I

1319
01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:04,719
Speaker 1: was just like, oh, hollwey, because I I love going

1320
01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:07,880
Speaker 1: to musicals, but I do feel often this singing is

1321
01:13:07,880 --> 01:13:13,519
Speaker 1: is more prioritized than the acting to unbelievable vocalists, like

1322
01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:16,639
Speaker 1: people who are like I, I can't believe your technique

1323
01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:18,760
Speaker 1: in the way it marries with your your intention and

1324
01:13:19,080 --> 01:13:23,480
Speaker 1: and the style, but who are also such deep, precise,

1325
01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:26,800
Speaker 1: incredible actors. I was just like, I couldn't believe what

1326
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:29,160
Speaker 1: I was saying. But I also saw Paul Nolan in

1327
01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:31,000
Speaker 1: once when I went to go see it. Who's playing

1328
01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:35,439
Speaker 1: the guy and just like his his his instrument is

1329
01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:37,439
Speaker 1: unbelievable if you can if you ever get a chance

1330
01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:39,200
Speaker 1: to see him perform. I don't know the guy. I

1331
01:13:39,400 --> 01:13:41,439
Speaker 1: think he's great. Stay with here, Lazar. I'm like, I

1332
01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:44,160
Speaker 1: will talk all day about people I think are talented.

1333
01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:46,920
Speaker 1: You know, I was so excited when I was going

1334
01:13:46,960 --> 01:13:50,560
Speaker 1: to see Wicked because I was going to see um

1335
01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:54,519
Speaker 1: Annalie Ashford who did go on Who's True Jams Glinda,

1336
01:13:55,160 --> 01:13:58,479
Speaker 1: and I was gonna see Stephanie j Block and Stephanie

1337
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:03,760
Speaker 1: j used her understoody. Sorry, it's you know that show

1338
01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:09,360
Speaker 1: that's not she marked defying gravity With Wicked, there's like

1339
01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:12,560
Speaker 1: the standbyes go on a lot because he's one of

1340
01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:14,759
Speaker 1: those shows that you probably shouldn't be singing eight shows

1341
01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:20,439
Speaker 1: a week, it's a lot. It's just it's very vocally rigorous.

1342
01:14:20,800 --> 01:14:22,439
Speaker 1: It's it's one of those Well I did my first

1343
01:14:22,520 --> 01:14:26,040
Speaker 1: I don't think so honey on Wicked, so like it's

1344
01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:30,000
Speaker 1: not one of those shows I feel called to do um,

1345
01:14:30,040 --> 01:14:32,639
Speaker 1: but it is one of those that I've I've thought, like, man,

1346
01:14:33,000 --> 01:14:35,240
Speaker 1: that would be a great technical exercise and like, can

1347
01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:37,320
Speaker 1: I get my voice in shape to do that? Ship?

1348
01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:39,800
Speaker 1: You know? It's one of them, Like I mean, maybe

1349
01:14:39,800 --> 01:14:41,920
Speaker 1: I could, but I'd rather do it for another show

1350
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 1: because there are people who that is their story they

1351
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:45,960
Speaker 1: long to tell, and I say, good bless go do

1352
01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:48,599
Speaker 1: it you. Although you would say it's both alphabet and

1353
01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:51,320
Speaker 1: is not Immorrible or even Glenda, I would like to say,

1354
01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:53,360
Speaker 1: I would want to do Madam Morrible. I would want

1355
01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:58,639
Speaker 1: to do Monda came Glenda god Um. Wicked came out

1356
01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:03,519
Speaker 1: midway through my college experience, and so I didn't belt

1357
01:15:03,560 --> 01:15:05,240
Speaker 1: at that point in my life, like I just didn't

1358
01:15:05,240 --> 01:15:07,840
Speaker 1: know how I was like this legit soprano who was like, oh,

1359
01:15:07,840 --> 01:15:09,280
Speaker 1: maybe I have an alto as well, and that I

1360
01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:11,320
Speaker 1: just didn't know how to bring that up, but UM

1361
01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:13,320
Speaker 1: like to bring it up through the chest. I'm talking

1362
01:15:13,320 --> 01:15:17,720
Speaker 1: to terms. Um. But I just remember a friend of

1363
01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:20,599
Speaker 1: mine being like, there's this new show called Wicked. There's

1364
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:22,880
Speaker 1: a great part for you. Let me play you. And

1365
01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:26,160
Speaker 1: he starts playing my dear, my dear, and I was like,

1366
01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:28,320
Speaker 1: I know you're not trying to be mean, but you

1367
01:15:28,760 --> 01:15:31,479
Speaker 1: like all I do is play old women already. And

1368
01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:36,200
Speaker 1: I was like, what I think, Madame Morrible as a

1369
01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:41,559
Speaker 1: role has aged very well totally. We have lighted. I

1370
01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:45,720
Speaker 1: think the part where she's like, um, as pressed secretary, Yeah,

1371
01:15:45,760 --> 01:15:58,920
Speaker 1: I want you should do that. You should email them people. Yeah.

1372
01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:04,479
Speaker 1: Of that she's up in the Harshfeld. That's it. Oh

1373
01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:07,720
Speaker 1: my god. And I think I think, um, we've now arrived,

1374
01:16:08,400 --> 01:16:13,599
Speaker 1: not at our finale song, but at the kudagra are

1375
01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:17,760
Speaker 1: eleven o'clock number. If you will, I will of this episode,

1376
01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:21,360
Speaker 1: of which is I don't think so, honey, won't explain

1377
01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:24,160
Speaker 1: to the to the kids listening at home who may

1378
01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:26,040
Speaker 1: not know what I don't think so, honey, it's woll

1379
01:16:26,120 --> 01:16:29,120
Speaker 1: about I don't think, so, honey. Is UM a one

1380
01:16:29,160 --> 01:16:33,479
Speaker 1: minute unit of time in which you deliver an oral

1381
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,759
Speaker 1: missive against something that you um that is just getting

1382
01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:39,240
Speaker 1: your goat? So we all know, we all know the drill,

1383
01:16:39,360 --> 01:16:41,640
Speaker 1: we all know the Jolley have one minute, alright, So

1384
01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:44,120
Speaker 1: I think I will go first, which has kind of

1385
01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:48,640
Speaker 1: become canto. No. No, I think. I think if you

1386
01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:50,759
Speaker 1: go back and crunch the numbers, it's it's a pretty

1387
01:16:50,760 --> 01:16:54,280
Speaker 1: balanced frequency. But all right, this is Matt Rodgers as

1388
01:16:54,280 --> 01:16:56,360
Speaker 1: I don't think so honey, and his time starts now,

1389
01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:59,240
Speaker 1: I don't think so honey. Credit card minimums? Can I

1390
01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:01,920
Speaker 1: tell you something? Don't be talking all of the z

1391
01:17:02,320 --> 01:17:06,800
Speaker 1: ZiT guist about bitcoin. We haven't like even figured out

1392
01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:11,280
Speaker 1: our money situation. Now, okay, listen, I want no credit

1393
01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:14,519
Speaker 1: card minimum is no one carries cash, there's none of it.

1394
01:17:14,720 --> 01:17:16,760
Speaker 1: I have my credit card and my debit card, and

1395
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:19,160
Speaker 1: I need to be able to use it. If you're

1396
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:22,240
Speaker 1: telling me that a credit card minimum is eight dollars,

1397
01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:24,240
Speaker 1: and I come to you with five dollars of stuff

1398
01:17:24,360 --> 01:17:27,160
Speaker 1: and you say, no, go get something, just no, I'm

1399
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:30,840
Speaker 1: not passionately shopping at your store anymore. You think I'm

1400
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:34,599
Speaker 1: buying this extra kombucha, and now I have to and

1401
01:17:34,640 --> 01:17:37,400
Speaker 1: there's no joy there. You haven't given me a joyous experience.

1402
01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:39,679
Speaker 1: And that is part of your job as a shop keep.

1403
01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:43,439
Speaker 1: I don't think so, honey. These shop keeps who aren't

1404
01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:47,400
Speaker 1: putting um time into creating a good atmosphere by reinforcing

1405
01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:50,040
Speaker 1: or enforcing the rule that is a credit card minimum. Honey.

1406
01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:51,760
Speaker 1: I don't carry cash. I don't think it's a good

1407
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,400
Speaker 1: idea to carry cash in the streets. I have money,

1408
01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:56,320
Speaker 1: let me use it. I don't think so, honey. Credit

1409
01:17:56,360 --> 01:18:01,040
Speaker 1: card minimum one. Wow, I passionately agree with you. There

1410
01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:03,639
Speaker 1: should not be credit card minimums. And guess what, it's

1411
01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:08,200
Speaker 1: not like the machine won't work because it's about they

1412
01:18:08,320 --> 01:18:13,200
Speaker 1: change the law. What on? Like the percentage? Look at

1413
01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:16,160
Speaker 1: me talking about stuff I don't barely know about. Used

1414
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:20,440
Speaker 1: to it was used to it was the same percentage,

1415
01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:23,080
Speaker 1: I think, no matter what you bought. So they took

1416
01:18:23,520 --> 01:18:26,080
Speaker 1: certain percentages of like you're buying a dollar worth of

1417
01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:28,519
Speaker 1: something and they're taking like, you know, however many cents,

1418
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:31,439
Speaker 1: but but it's all all at the same percentage. And

1419
01:18:31,479 --> 01:18:33,519
Speaker 1: so that was more just like an irritating thing because

1420
01:18:33,520 --> 01:18:35,719
Speaker 1: people just didn't want to run the credit card. Now,

1421
01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:37,960
Speaker 1: at least in New York City, I don't know how

1422
01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:40,400
Speaker 1: it works. Else work, but now they charge you more

1423
01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:44,360
Speaker 1: if it's under a certain amount. So certain places like Starbucks,

1424
01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:46,080
Speaker 1: where they're doing a lot of business under a certain

1425
01:18:46,120 --> 01:18:48,240
Speaker 1: amount doesn't matter because the volume will cancel it out.

1426
01:18:48,240 --> 01:18:51,720
Speaker 1: But like a bodega isn't necessarily gonna so it. I

1427
01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:53,400
Speaker 1: don't know when that changed. It was in the last

1428
01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:55,920
Speaker 1: few years or so, and I could be wrong, but

1429
01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:59,640
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that that's well I only vaguely understand,

1430
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:04,280
Speaker 1: and I still don't know. It's still irritated, like, yeah,

1431
01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:09,600
Speaker 1: if I have cash, it's like a miracle venmous bodega,

1432
01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:12,000
Speaker 1: that would be great. And then you go and they say, well,

1433
01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:13,240
Speaker 1: the A t M is over there, and you go

1434
01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:15,439
Speaker 1: over there, and it's like a three dollar charge. And

1435
01:19:15,560 --> 01:19:17,800
Speaker 1: I had definitely I mean, this doesn't happen anymore with

1436
01:19:17,840 --> 01:19:20,800
Speaker 1: the chip, but I've definitely had with like a bodega,

1437
01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:23,360
Speaker 1: A t M had one of those they can like

1438
01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:25,759
Speaker 1: put I found it from my bank after my credit

1439
01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 1: card number got stolen. They have like someone can put

1440
01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:31,880
Speaker 1: in a little like insert into the machine. So you

1441
01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,200
Speaker 1: run it and it takes an imprint of it. Because

1442
01:19:34,280 --> 01:19:35,720
Speaker 1: I was like, how did they get my number? I

1443
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:37,760
Speaker 1: didn't lose my card and the bankers like, well did

1444
01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:40,760
Speaker 1: you ever use Like like yes, They're like okay, well

1445
01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:43,040
Speaker 1: what the scam is and like walk me through, like

1446
01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:44,960
Speaker 1: how someone can get your number? I don't understand how

1447
01:19:44,960 --> 01:19:48,200
Speaker 1: it works, but that's the gig. Well, I'm happy that

1448
01:19:48,240 --> 01:19:50,240
Speaker 1: everyone knows that. And I will say one thing before

1449
01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:52,800
Speaker 1: we move on, which is in relation to that. If

1450
01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:55,920
Speaker 1: you ever get a call from a number that you

1451
01:19:55,920 --> 01:19:59,120
Speaker 1: don't recognize and they ask you, is this so and so,

1452
01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:05,320
Speaker 1: never say yes. Always say who's calling? Or this is

1453
01:20:05,400 --> 01:20:10,240
Speaker 1: he or she or whatever um because they can record

1454
01:20:10,320 --> 01:20:15,760
Speaker 1: you saying yes and use that to confirm purchases. This

1455
01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:17,479
Speaker 1: is just why I don't ever answer the phone. There

1456
01:20:17,520 --> 01:20:21,439
Speaker 1: you go, don't ever answer text me, email me. You

1457
01:20:21,600 --> 01:20:24,559
Speaker 1: hear that? Also, I would pay I would. I would

1458
01:20:24,720 --> 01:20:27,439
Speaker 1: green light a series of Amy Joe Jackson just with

1459
01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:36,519
Speaker 1: her elocution, just explain anything, green light, I'll thank you.

1460
01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:39,880
Speaker 1: One is big in the studio system. I've heard that.

1461
01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:43,880
Speaker 1: I've heard that yes so, And speaking of Bowen, now

1462
01:20:44,080 --> 01:20:46,960
Speaker 1: is is I don't think so Honey and Bowen, I

1463
01:20:46,960 --> 01:20:49,240
Speaker 1: don't think so, Honey. On this the Amy Joe Jackson

1464
01:20:49,280 --> 01:20:52,280
Speaker 1: episode of Last Cultures, which will will be entitled She's

1465
01:20:52,360 --> 01:20:56,840
Speaker 1: up in the Hirshfeld, his time begins now, I don't

1466
01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:01,360
Speaker 1: think so, Hony. Airbnbs Upstate, bitch. I was trying to

1467
01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:05,760
Speaker 1: find a decent, well priced Airbnb for my spur of

1468
01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:08,680
Speaker 1: the moment trip to upstate New York, specifically Woodstock, New

1469
01:21:08,760 --> 01:21:13,439
Speaker 1: York slash Stanfordshire, I believe. But anyway we ended up

1470
01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:19,479
Speaker 1: staying at this decrepit it might as well have been condemned, Honey.

1471
01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:23,759
Speaker 1: This terrible cottage was filled with you know, horrible little

1472
01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:28,800
Speaker 1: garage sailed chokes. The bed was functional, Honey. And I

1473
01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:36,200
Speaker 1: have to say, burn every wooden structure upstate and rebuild

1474
01:21:36,240 --> 01:21:42,720
Speaker 1: with iron. Honey, built glass buildings or iron buildings. I

1475
01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:47,200
Speaker 1: can't stay in these wooden buildings. They rotten. They they're horrible,

1476
01:21:47,320 --> 01:21:50,719
Speaker 1: and I I don't think so, Honey. Going up state

1477
01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:55,440
Speaker 1: having a great time and then going to some dusty, disgusting,

1478
01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:58,360
Speaker 1: dank little room to sleep and to ruin the whole experience.

1479
01:21:58,400 --> 01:22:03,280
Speaker 1: That really just ruined the whole upstate experience. I'm so sorry,

1480
01:22:03,320 --> 01:22:05,720
Speaker 1: that that happens. That's the kind of wooden building to

1481
01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:11,960
Speaker 1: be folksy, not like I needed a folks see. You

1482
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:15,600
Speaker 1: know what bespoke Is that the right word? But I

1483
01:22:15,680 --> 01:22:18,960
Speaker 1: just wanted a nice little you wanted to rustic experience.

1484
01:22:20,560 --> 01:22:22,479
Speaker 1: Rustic is the word he was looking for, not to spoke.

1485
01:22:22,600 --> 01:22:27,679
Speaker 1: This is the second time and Historical and Historic Occasion

1486
01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:31,880
Speaker 1: have corrected Bowen on his grammatical and saying I would

1487
01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:37,040
Speaker 1: remind the audience. I would remind the audience that Matt

1488
01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:39,720
Speaker 1: tried has said the word what was it instead of

1489
01:22:41,160 --> 01:22:44,000
Speaker 1: instead of superstitious? That's fine. I think that's fine. Okay,

1490
01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:46,920
Speaker 1: all right, So this is Amy Joe Jackson's I don't

1491
01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:49,080
Speaker 1: think so, honey. And then after Amy Joe Jacksons, I

1492
01:22:49,080 --> 01:22:51,080
Speaker 1: don't think so honey, we are going to debut a

1493
01:22:51,160 --> 01:22:55,960
Speaker 1: new segment before the final number. Uh, Amy Joe Jackson,

1494
01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:59,080
Speaker 1: you're I don't think so honey. Time begins now, I

1495
01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:01,000
Speaker 1: don't think so honey. Pe who find out how old

1496
01:23:01,040 --> 01:23:02,680
Speaker 1: I am and then tell me they're shocked because I

1497
01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:05,240
Speaker 1: look so much younger than that, and are thinking I

1498
01:23:05,240 --> 01:23:08,720
Speaker 1: should take it as some kind of compliment. I don't

1499
01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:10,320
Speaker 1: think I wanted for a couple of reasons. One, you've

1500
01:23:10,320 --> 01:23:13,240
Speaker 1: reminded me of a very painful professional reality, which is

1501
01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:14,920
Speaker 1: I don't look old enough for the parts I should

1502
01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:19,600
Speaker 1: be playing just rub salted alone. But more importantly, I

1503
01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:23,320
Speaker 1: don't think, so, honey, this fetishization of youth, this idea

1504
01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:25,640
Speaker 1: that we're supposed to be flattered, to be told we

1505
01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:28,800
Speaker 1: look like infants. I don't think so honey. Yes, do

1506
01:23:28,840 --> 01:23:30,840
Speaker 1: I take care of my scarnest horse. I don't want

1507
01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:33,360
Speaker 1: skin cancer slash. I would love to look like Helen

1508
01:23:33,360 --> 01:23:35,080
Speaker 1: Mirrow when I am her age, but that is to

1509
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:37,240
Speaker 1: say I just want to look stunning. I don't want

1510
01:23:37,240 --> 01:23:40,160
Speaker 1: to look twenty too. I have experience, I have skill,

1511
01:23:40,240 --> 01:23:42,960
Speaker 1: I have wisdom. I have more self confidence and more

1512
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:46,360
Speaker 1: assuredness because I am a woman who is thirty four

1513
01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:49,760
Speaker 1: will be thirty five in June. It was a mess

1514
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:51,680
Speaker 1: of twenty six. She wants to be twenty six. It

1515
01:23:51,760 --> 01:23:56,200
Speaker 1: was fine, it's better now. That should be the biggest

1516
01:23:56,200 --> 01:23:58,680
Speaker 1: compliment I could receive. I don't think, so honey. That

1517
01:23:58,840 --> 01:24:04,840
Speaker 1: is one minute, my goodness, stunning and totally on time.

1518
01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:08,400
Speaker 1: That is, I don't know. That's a stunner of it.

1519
01:24:08,439 --> 01:24:10,040
Speaker 1: I don't think that was amazing and you know what,

1520
01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:14,760
Speaker 1: it was literally exactly one minute long, not a not

1521
01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:18,479
Speaker 1: a verb over. Here's okay, Amy, would you accept this

1522
01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:21,240
Speaker 1: as a compliment your skin when I walked in the

1523
01:24:21,320 --> 01:24:25,559
Speaker 1: room radio, what you can say instead of something like

1524
01:24:25,840 --> 01:24:28,519
Speaker 1: your skin looks amazing where you have such great skin

1525
01:24:28,600 --> 01:24:33,080
Speaker 1: and I do have? Yeah, Well, even I mean, there's like,

1526
01:24:33,160 --> 01:24:35,479
Speaker 1: here's the thing. You don't know what is going on

1527
01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:38,559
Speaker 1: with a particular person. So even like we we say

1528
01:24:38,560 --> 01:24:40,360
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff that's like, oh my god, you

1529
01:24:40,479 --> 01:24:42,439
Speaker 1: like have you lost weight? You look great? But like,

1530
01:24:42,600 --> 01:24:44,559
Speaker 1: for instance, I have a very dear friend who went

1531
01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:46,800
Speaker 1: through a terrible illness in the last couple of years

1532
01:24:46,800 --> 01:24:49,479
Speaker 1: and she's much better now, but she was like it

1533
01:24:49,600 --> 01:24:53,439
Speaker 1: was scary, really scary, and for a while there, like

1534
01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:55,240
Speaker 1: she was in and out of the hospital but was

1535
01:24:55,280 --> 01:24:57,240
Speaker 1: trying to keep it on the download so that like

1536
01:24:57,240 --> 01:24:59,280
Speaker 1: it wouldn't affect work, so a lot of people didn't

1537
01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:01,360
Speaker 1: know about it. She got very thin, it was already

1538
01:25:01,400 --> 01:25:03,320
Speaker 1: like a thin person to begin with, and apparently people

1539
01:25:03,320 --> 01:25:04,559
Speaker 1: were coming up to her and being just like, oh

1540
01:25:04,560 --> 01:25:06,280
Speaker 1: my god, you look amazing with your secret She's like,

1541
01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:08,639
Speaker 1: I don't know, almost death, but she can't say that

1542
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:10,639
Speaker 1: you know, so it's just like you just don't know.

1543
01:25:10,800 --> 01:25:13,120
Speaker 1: But there are ways to say the spirit of what

1544
01:25:13,120 --> 01:25:17,240
Speaker 1: you're trying to say without well. And also like I

1545
01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:19,960
Speaker 1: think we're all taught to take like you look young

1546
01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:21,800
Speaker 1: as a compliment. You know what I hate too is

1547
01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:24,960
Speaker 1: when I get carded. When I can tell that they

1548
01:25:25,080 --> 01:25:27,760
Speaker 1: are trying to flirt with me or flatter me. It's

1549
01:25:27,840 --> 01:25:30,040
Speaker 1: different when like, say you're in Boston or like a universe.

1550
01:25:30,120 --> 01:25:32,439
Speaker 1: I was just working in Syracuse. That's a university town.

1551
01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:34,840
Speaker 1: The card everybody. That makes sense. You have to be

1552
01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:36,680
Speaker 1: super strict because there's a lot of people trying to

1553
01:25:36,680 --> 01:25:38,639
Speaker 1: get in places they shouldn't be. I have a problem

1554
01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:41,439
Speaker 1: with that. I have a problem with when it's someone

1555
01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:44,840
Speaker 1: who's clearly trying to like flatter me, Like that doesn't

1556
01:25:44,880 --> 01:25:47,519
Speaker 1: flatter me because I do not look like I'm twenty.

1557
01:25:48,000 --> 01:25:49,640
Speaker 1: I don't want to look like that. I have a

1558
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:51,640
Speaker 1: round face when I buzz my hair. It makes more

1559
01:25:51,640 --> 01:25:53,960
Speaker 1: sense because that's more of an extreme choice. Somebody it's bigger.

1560
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:55,920
Speaker 1: But even then I was like, I don't, actually, you don't.

1561
01:25:55,960 --> 01:25:59,080
Speaker 1: Actually I think I'm twenty, But you think that that's

1562
01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:01,120
Speaker 1: going to flatter me because as we're all socially told

1563
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:04,720
Speaker 1: we're supposed to look like we're in our mid twenties

1564
01:26:04,880 --> 01:26:07,400
Speaker 1: at most and we have no value as we get older.

1565
01:26:07,439 --> 01:26:10,479
Speaker 1: I just think that's such bullshit. It pisces me, it

1566
01:26:10,800 --> 01:26:13,760
Speaker 1: makes me. I right in those moments, I'm like, this

1567
01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:15,599
Speaker 1: is this is a stranger. I don't need to give

1568
01:26:15,640 --> 01:26:18,120
Speaker 1: them this much. I don't engage with them. But it's hard. Yeah,

1569
01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:22,439
Speaker 1: it's tough, but yeah, and quote Amy Joe Jackson, who

1570
01:26:22,680 --> 01:26:26,559
Speaker 1: who needs to be twenty six? Who wants to And

1571
01:26:26,600 --> 01:26:31,840
Speaker 1: we're twenty I'm twenty eight now and yeah, we're just

1572
01:26:35,400 --> 01:26:38,320
Speaker 1: right now and it's really hard. Um, So we are

1573
01:26:38,520 --> 01:26:40,559
Speaker 1: about to save you a new segment and you're the first.

1583
01:27:16,960 --> 01:27:19,719
Speaker 1: Let's let's hear. I have not heard this yet. One second.

1584
01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:25,280
Speaker 1: Hello those Cultures its booster. Some of you might remember

1585
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:28,560
Speaker 1: me as the very first return guests that Lost Cultures

1586
01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:31,360
Speaker 1: has has ever seen. That's right, Um, it was me.

1587
01:27:31,439 --> 01:27:33,880
Speaker 1: It was not that Reagan, despite what he might say

1588
01:27:34,520 --> 01:27:38,000
Speaker 1: that if it didn't air, it didn't happen. That's like

1589
01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:41,360
Speaker 1: one of the first rules of podcasting that they wrote down,

1590
01:27:41,560 --> 01:27:45,600
Speaker 1: coming hard for the villain. I started podcasting the first podcast. Anyways,

1591
01:27:46,160 --> 01:27:49,639
Speaker 1: I'm here UM once again, the first as the very

1592
01:27:49,680 --> 01:27:53,120
Speaker 1: first voice memo correspondent. I'm huge to talk about my

1593
01:27:53,160 --> 01:27:56,320
Speaker 1: favorite show, RuPaul's Drag Race. Some of you also might

1594
01:27:56,320 --> 01:27:59,160
Speaker 1: know this about me, but I did once recap RuPaul's

1595
01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:04,000
Speaker 1: Drag Race for Vulture New York Magazines online entertainment blog UM,

1596
01:28:04,200 --> 01:28:06,360
Speaker 1: and I went back to do that again this past

1597
01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:08,799
Speaker 1: year for all starts three. And they said that someone

1598
01:28:08,880 --> 01:28:12,679
Speaker 1: had um taken the job from me, that two younger,

1599
01:28:13,200 --> 01:28:17,200
Speaker 1: umless funny people had approached them and funny at me

1600
01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:19,120
Speaker 1: and stolen the job right out from under me. And

1601
01:28:19,160 --> 01:28:21,759
Speaker 1: I was very dismayed to find out what those people

1602
01:28:21,840 --> 01:28:24,160
Speaker 1: were actually my two close friends Matt Rogers and Bow

1603
01:28:24,160 --> 01:28:27,280
Speaker 1: and Yang Um. So it was um the least that

1604
01:28:27,320 --> 01:28:29,519
Speaker 1: they could do to let me record this message to

1605
01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:33,080
Speaker 1: talk about some thoughts I had about the show. So

1606
01:28:33,160 --> 01:28:34,719
Speaker 1: let's get into it. I just want to talk about

1607
01:28:34,840 --> 01:28:39,880
Speaker 1: um my top four and those people are Monet Exchange

1608
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:42,519
Speaker 1: from New York. I love Money. I think she's so

1609
01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:46,040
Speaker 1: funny and so um beautiful on the show. I think

1610
01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:48,760
Speaker 1: she's so talented. I was not excited about Money going

1611
01:28:48,880 --> 01:28:50,960
Speaker 1: into the seasons. I don't know why. I think it

1612
01:28:51,040 --> 01:28:54,720
Speaker 1: was partially because I think five New York queens is

1613
01:28:54,800 --> 01:28:57,880
Speaker 1: just so many, Like New York and drag race is

1614
01:28:57,920 --> 01:29:00,439
Speaker 1: sort of like Russia and figure skating and that like

1615
01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:04,240
Speaker 1: they should only allow to compete in the Olympics, you know,

1616
01:29:04,360 --> 01:29:07,639
Speaker 1: like the like they only allowed to Russian girls because

1617
01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:10,280
Speaker 1: there are like seven Russian girls that are the best

1618
01:29:10,280 --> 01:29:12,439
Speaker 1: in the world, that are so much better than anybody else,

1619
01:29:12,439 --> 01:29:14,280
Speaker 1: any other country you could send. And it's just like

1620
01:29:14,360 --> 01:29:16,240
Speaker 1: it's a boring watch. And that's sort of how I

1621
01:29:16,280 --> 01:29:19,600
Speaker 1: feel about them, Like give us more queens from like Cincinnati,

1622
01:29:19,680 --> 01:29:25,639
Speaker 1: Ohio or what I've been year. Claire the first Indiana

1623
01:29:25,720 --> 01:29:29,800
Speaker 1: queen we've seen, Like, give us more flyover queens. That's

1624
01:29:29,840 --> 01:29:32,840
Speaker 1: what I want to see seasons because they're kind of

1625
01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:39,000
Speaker 1: bad and sometimes that makes for a good TV. UM.

1626
01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:41,599
Speaker 1: I did not love her sponge stressed look, but I

1627
01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:44,200
Speaker 1: still think she should be in the top three four.

1628
01:29:44,479 --> 01:29:48,000
Speaker 1: I don't know why that that doesn't make any sense.

1629
01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:51,880
Speaker 1: That's a contradiction, but guess what, Like, I am allowed

1630
01:29:51,920 --> 01:29:55,400
Speaker 1: to contradict myself, and honestly, I am allowed to take

1631
01:29:55,439 --> 01:29:58,920
Speaker 1: anything I say back um from these voice memos because

1632
01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:01,960
Speaker 1: I am a gay person living in Johns, America, and

1633
01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:04,559
Speaker 1: that is a right that is still afforded to me.

1634
01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:06,400
Speaker 1: It has not been taken away from me yet, So

1635
01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:10,040
Speaker 1: I reserve the right to just reverse myself several times

1636
01:30:10,040 --> 01:30:12,800
Speaker 1: within the span of this voice memo. My number two

1637
01:30:13,400 --> 01:30:15,960
Speaker 1: pick is MS Cracker, also from New York. I think

1638
01:30:16,000 --> 01:30:18,599
Speaker 1: she had is so funny and beautiful and it has

1639
01:30:19,160 --> 01:30:22,040
Speaker 1: an incredible pedigree to do well on the show. She's

1640
01:30:22,080 --> 01:30:25,800
Speaker 1: Bob's drag daughter, UM, and I love that she's giving

1641
01:30:25,880 --> 01:30:29,600
Speaker 1: us like shades of Sasha Valure, that headiness, that creativeness.

1642
01:30:29,640 --> 01:30:34,720
Speaker 1: But she's fun to watch. Thinks gave us one of

1643
01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:36,840
Speaker 1: the top ten gags of the show's history. But she

1644
01:30:37,000 --> 01:30:39,320
Speaker 1: was not fun TV, and so I would love to

1645
01:30:39,320 --> 01:30:42,240
Speaker 1: see more fun from miss Cracker. I love that she

1646
01:30:42,240 --> 01:30:44,759
Speaker 1: said her brand was stupid, like give us more stupid,

1647
01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:47,520
Speaker 1: stupid bitch, you know, like don't give us a mimact

1648
01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:50,600
Speaker 1: on the runway, and like some high concept shit like

1649
01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:54,360
Speaker 1: be funny. I don't want to see some sad widow

1650
01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:58,320
Speaker 1: with your downturned eyebrows um on the runway. I don't know.

1651
01:30:58,400 --> 01:30:59,720
Speaker 1: I thought the litter is gag, though I thought she

1652
01:30:59,720 --> 01:31:02,519
Speaker 1: should put her at the time. Um My number three

1653
01:31:03,040 --> 01:31:07,200
Speaker 1: is Monique Hart so beautiful. I think she was robbed

1654
01:31:07,280 --> 01:31:10,160
Speaker 1: from the top three, as specifically robbed by you ha

1655
01:31:10,439 --> 01:31:13,519
Speaker 1: which um. I know that this is going to sound unfair,

1656
01:31:13,520 --> 01:31:17,400
Speaker 1: but bowen um. As a Chinese person, you are responsible

1657
01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:21,320
Speaker 1: for everything that she says and does. Actually aroblematic. She

1658
01:31:21,400 --> 01:31:24,639
Speaker 1: does is sort of by extension your fault, so keep

1659
01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:28,600
Speaker 1: that in mind. Collect your people. I know that sound unfair,

1660
01:31:28,680 --> 01:31:35,360
Speaker 1: but that is how um the world's works. Everybody's watching.

1661
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:39,120
Speaker 1: I hope that she does better for your sake. I

1662
01:31:39,200 --> 01:31:41,080
Speaker 1: was almost going to pick Mayhem for this spot, but

1663
01:31:41,200 --> 01:31:43,439
Speaker 1: I think that Mayhem Um, I love her. I think

1664
01:31:43,479 --> 01:31:45,479
Speaker 1: she's beautiful, and I want her to do well. But

1665
01:31:45,560 --> 01:31:48,360
Speaker 1: anybody who cries that much on reality television is not

1666
01:31:49,320 --> 01:31:52,160
Speaker 1: a crime. I'm sorry. They are going to set her

1667
01:31:52,240 --> 01:31:54,960
Speaker 1: up so so high only to knock her down. We're

1668
01:31:54,960 --> 01:31:58,040
Speaker 1: going to see her crime many many more times. Um

1669
01:31:58,160 --> 01:32:02,719
Speaker 1: this season, I can you it, um my number four spot. Matt,

1670
01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:05,160
Speaker 1: you have already given me shade for this online. It's

1671
01:32:05,200 --> 01:32:07,760
Speaker 1: a joharra. I think she's beautiful. I think she's one

1672
01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:11,040
Speaker 1: of the fishies queens this season. I think that beat

1673
01:32:11,200 --> 01:32:14,280
Speaker 1: Look at that fucking face and tell me one legendary.

1674
01:32:14,439 --> 01:32:19,439
Speaker 1: I think she comes from a prestigious pageant past, which

1675
01:32:19,720 --> 01:32:23,200
Speaker 1: you know, like Coco, like Alyssa, like Kennedy Devonport. I

1676
01:32:23,240 --> 01:32:27,439
Speaker 1: think she's going to do well. Um, she can slay

1677
01:32:27,520 --> 01:32:29,680
Speaker 1: lip sync. I think she's beautiful, and Matt, for you

1678
01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:32,360
Speaker 1: to give thrust shade at me for picking her just

1679
01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:35,160
Speaker 1: makes you a dumb white bitch. You are the dumbest

1680
01:32:35,200 --> 01:32:38,559
Speaker 1: person I think I've ever met. Um and I wear

1681
01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:42,840
Speaker 1: both those things. Our conversation online about a jo here,

1682
01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:45,640
Speaker 1: and you will feel ashamed because she will be in

1683
01:32:45,720 --> 01:32:49,280
Speaker 1: the top, and you will feel so stupid. If she

1684
01:32:49,360 --> 01:32:52,000
Speaker 1: does go home next week, I again reserve the right

1685
01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:53,679
Speaker 1: to say that she was never in my top four.

1686
01:32:53,720 --> 01:32:59,160
Speaker 1: I never said that recorded. Once again, I will deny, deny, deny,

1687
01:32:59,439 --> 01:33:03,080
Speaker 1: and you will never Um, You'll never hear me say

1688
01:33:03,080 --> 01:33:06,120
Speaker 1: that I am wrong because, um, when talking about this show,

1689
01:33:06,160 --> 01:33:09,040
Speaker 1: you can't ever really be wrong because what is this show?

1690
01:33:09,040 --> 01:33:11,600
Speaker 1: There are no rules. Anyways, those are my thoughts. I

1691
01:33:11,640 --> 01:33:15,360
Speaker 1: love you both, goodbye, Okay, Well that's our first voice.

1692
01:33:15,560 --> 01:33:19,679
Speaker 1: Mem oh you bitch, and I I think he said

1693
01:33:19,680 --> 01:33:23,120
Speaker 1: a lot of groundbreaking things. I don't think Asia belongs

1694
01:33:23,120 --> 01:33:24,880
Speaker 1: to the Top four unless she really turns it out.

1695
01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:28,120
Speaker 1: Are you watching this season? Come on? Yeah? Devoted? What

1696
01:33:28,160 --> 01:33:32,320
Speaker 1: about you? Who are your favorite? I love Money, Yeah,

1697
01:33:32,680 --> 01:33:38,440
Speaker 1: Monique Heart. I'm also really into favorite. Yes, absolutely sensation

1698
01:33:38,720 --> 01:33:43,280
Speaker 1: just like gag for her, I was like adorable, so funny,

1699
01:33:43,560 --> 01:33:45,640
Speaker 1: and then and then crackers, like back and forth with

1700
01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:48,480
Speaker 1: the judges. I was like, where did I get professional?

1701
01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:52,000
Speaker 1: I've been following most of them on Instagram for ages anyway,

1702
01:33:52,240 --> 01:33:54,439
Speaker 1: because that's like half of what I follow on Instagram

1703
01:33:54,479 --> 01:33:57,519
Speaker 1: and dragqueons yeah same, but um, I haven't seen her

1704
01:33:57,520 --> 01:33:59,840
Speaker 1: perform live, and I was like, well, We're gonna get

1705
01:33:59,840 --> 01:34:03,200
Speaker 1: some some good stuff out of this. She's great life,

1706
01:34:03,240 --> 01:34:06,120
Speaker 1: She's got some great old griddld mixing. I don't think

1707
01:34:06,160 --> 01:34:08,639
Speaker 1: that he's wrong that Asia is. I don't think Asia

1708
01:34:08,640 --> 01:34:11,959
Speaker 1: will go home soon. I just don't think she's top four. Sure, um,

1709
01:34:12,040 --> 01:34:16,040
Speaker 1: well on that. Let's listen to Amy Joe's last number. Yes,

01:34:42,400 --> 01:34:45,200
Speaker 1: And a quick little tip is that tickets are five

1718
01:34:45,240 --> 01:34:48,479
Speaker 1: dollars more at the doors. So book We always love

1719
01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:52,639
Speaker 1: to see the bookings in advantage your friends a favor.

1720
01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:56,080
Speaker 1: If you know you're going by a goddamn advance, we're

1721
01:34:56,080 --> 01:35:00,799
Speaker 1: having a heart attack on the day, goddamn it. All right, So, um, briefly,

1722
01:35:02,040 --> 01:35:05,240
Speaker 1: so this next piece uh is from a show called

1723
01:35:05,240 --> 01:35:07,559
Speaker 1: The Lion, which played off Broadway a few years ago.

1724
01:35:07,960 --> 01:35:11,559
Speaker 1: So my friend Ben Shawyer, who I've known. We weren't

1725
01:35:11,560 --> 01:35:13,200
Speaker 1: in college together, but we were both in college in

1726
01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:14,800
Speaker 1: Boston at the same time. So I've known him since

1727
01:35:14,800 --> 01:35:17,920
Speaker 1: I was like eighteen, and he's a singer songwriter and

1728
01:35:17,920 --> 01:35:21,760
Speaker 1: and has written some musicals, like just a regular book

1729
01:35:21,840 --> 01:35:23,560
Speaker 1: musical type thing as well as like he's played with

1730
01:35:23,600 --> 01:35:25,439
Speaker 1: the band for many years. And I like would run

1731
01:35:25,479 --> 01:35:27,000
Speaker 1: into him in the city a lot, and I ran

1732
01:35:27,040 --> 01:35:28,960
Speaker 1: into him. We were both like rehearsing the same buildings, like, Oh,

1733
01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:31,040
Speaker 1: I have this show, uh, and I missed it in

1734
01:35:31,040 --> 01:35:32,920
Speaker 1: the first go round and then it got remounted down

1735
01:35:33,080 --> 01:35:35,559
Speaker 1: UM on Bleaker Street. I was like, oh, I've got

1736
01:35:35,560 --> 01:35:39,080
Speaker 1: to go now that I can see this and it's UM. Basically,

1737
01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:42,719
Speaker 1: the the overall idea is it's him like a coming

1738
01:35:42,760 --> 01:35:44,479
Speaker 1: of age story and also grapples a lot with the

1739
01:35:44,479 --> 01:35:46,760
Speaker 1: death of his father at a young age. But he

1740
01:35:46,880 --> 01:35:50,120
Speaker 1: plays like six different guitars. He's an incredible guitarist, and

1741
01:35:50,200 --> 01:35:52,960
Speaker 1: he writes all these songs um, and it's the show

1742
01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:56,600
Speaker 1: is like an hour fifteen maybe, and I just like

1743
01:35:56,680 --> 01:35:59,200
Speaker 1: felt all the films because its so funny and so beautiful.

1744
01:35:59,240 --> 01:36:01,080
Speaker 1: And then at the end of the show, you find

1745
01:36:01,080 --> 01:36:02,920
Speaker 1: out like this is something I didn't know about him

1746
01:36:02,960 --> 01:36:04,679
Speaker 1: because we weren't close at this point in his life,

1747
01:36:04,680 --> 01:36:07,439
Speaker 1: but like he struggled with cancer for a few years

1748
01:36:07,479 --> 01:36:09,640
Speaker 1: and like it was a really dark time. So this,

1749
01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:12,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I was sitting next to someone who like

1750
01:36:12,720 --> 01:36:15,760
Speaker 1: we had known each other, were from like mutual friends,

1751
01:36:15,760 --> 01:36:17,120
Speaker 1: but we hadn't met. We ended up sitting next to

1752
01:36:17,120 --> 01:36:19,800
Speaker 1: one another, the amazing pianist to Drew what keep and

1753
01:36:19,800 --> 01:36:21,240
Speaker 1: we were like, oh my gosh, it's you, babbabla. So

1754
01:36:21,280 --> 01:36:24,479
Speaker 1: we're sitting there basically just having met, holding hands, weeping

1755
01:36:25,400 --> 01:36:29,720
Speaker 1: because it was so incredible. So this song, in the

1756
01:36:29,760 --> 01:36:34,840
Speaker 1: context of the show, is his girlfriend. He's telling the

1757
01:36:34,840 --> 01:36:36,840
Speaker 1: story of a squirlfldness though it's a girlfriend's perspective. So

1758
01:36:36,840 --> 01:36:40,400
Speaker 1: it's kind of a gender band moment because he sang it,

1759
01:36:40,439 --> 01:36:43,280
Speaker 1: but it's it's meant to be the girlfriend character he

1760
01:36:43,320 --> 01:36:46,080
Speaker 1: talks about. You. You're bending the gender band always. Well,

1761
01:36:46,160 --> 01:36:48,559
Speaker 1: let's listen, yes, and thank you guys so much for listening.

1762
01:36:48,600 --> 01:36:51,120
Speaker 1: This is Amy Joe Jackson enjoy and with with of course,

1763
01:36:51,120 --> 01:36:54,240
Speaker 1: with Henry Koperski sounding lovely as well. Here we go.

1764
01:37:00,880 --> 01:37:05,840
Speaker 1: I'm going to the invisible cities, where the pace is

1765
01:37:06,080 --> 01:37:12,400
Speaker 1: different than the one we know. I'm bringing only one

1766
01:37:12,680 --> 01:37:15,920
Speaker 1: not so big suitcase, and I might ask you to

1767
01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:22,679
Speaker 1: send some things. I need a little time to explore

1768
01:37:22,760 --> 01:37:26,400
Speaker 1: the world alone, make some friends who have never met you,

1769
01:37:26,920 --> 01:37:31,440
Speaker 1: speak a language you don't know, do some dances unfamiliar,

1770
01:37:31,960 --> 01:37:35,519
Speaker 1: and some clothes you'll never see. I might lose a

1771
01:37:35,560 --> 01:37:39,200
Speaker 1: little you there, but in your place I'll fine a

1772
01:37:39,320 --> 01:37:48,919
Speaker 1: bit more me. I met a puppy. His name is Arturo,

1773
01:37:49,640 --> 01:37:54,880
Speaker 1: and he rests his pointy face on my shoulder when

1774
01:37:54,880 --> 01:38:06,080
Speaker 1: I'm lying in bed here in an invisible city. I'm

1775
01:38:06,080 --> 01:38:10,080
Speaker 1: not a woman, and her name is Nutty, and she

1776
01:38:10,200 --> 01:38:15,360
Speaker 1: lets me share her bed with her. Me and our terrow.

1777
01:38:19,680 --> 01:38:23,959
Speaker 1: I need a little time to explore the world alone.

1778
01:38:24,720 --> 01:38:28,479
Speaker 1: Eat the food I've never tasted, Drink the wine i've

1779
01:38:28,560 --> 01:38:33,320
Speaker 1: never known, feel the kisses of a lover, someone sweet

1780
01:38:33,360 --> 01:38:36,960
Speaker 1: and dark and new. I might lose a little me there,

1781
01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:40,479
Speaker 1: but in my place I'll find a bit more you.

1782
01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:44,440
Speaker 1: And if you ask, through all these months of exploration,

1783
01:38:45,200 --> 01:38:48,280
Speaker 1: have you found the thing you were looking forward last?

1784
01:38:50,920 --> 01:38:54,519
Speaker 1: I would explain. When I haveve in each new city,

1785
01:38:55,160 --> 01:38:58,439
Speaker 1: I find again a past of mine. I did not

1786
01:38:58,680 --> 01:39:03,639
Speaker 1: know I have, and so I'm taking time to explore

1787
01:39:03,760 --> 01:39:07,519
Speaker 1: the world alone. Don't expect a lot of phone calls.

1788
01:39:08,160 --> 01:39:11,519
Speaker 1: I don't know when I'll come home. It could be

1789
01:39:11,680 --> 01:39:16,040
Speaker 1: and the summer, but more likely and the full And

1790
01:39:16,200 --> 01:39:19,639
Speaker 1: maybe then you'll see me you were the first time,

1791
01:39:19,920 --> 01:39:34,600
Speaker 1: really see me, and I'll cease to feel invisible at all. Forever.
