You are coming 15 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: into a heated discussion right off the bat our guests 16 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: has prompted us to battle each other right off. I 17 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: actually cannot believe because this is and I said, I said, 18 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: some were sort of having a conversation and then Sam, 19 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: you go, you know, this is the thing. This is 20 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: always the thing with George and I'm like, no good sentence, No, 21 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: no good sentiment is going to come out of a 22 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 1: sentence that starts with this is always the thing with George. Well, okay, 23 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: so my accusation, the claims that I am claiming are 24 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: right too, that George, we could be recording at Saturday 25 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: at eleven am, and George would be like, this is 26 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: a bad time to record. We could be recording on 27 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: a Tuesday at three pm and George would be like, 28 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 1: this is just like an intrinsically bad time to record. 29 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,279 Speaker 1: We could be recording Thursday at seven pm, and George 30 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: is like, well, this would never work. Of course We're 31 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: not gonna be able to do at seven pm, and 32 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: I my theory is there is no good time to record. Well, 33 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: here's what I'll say though about you, is you value 34 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: your week end morning so much that it's like anything 35 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: before one pm is too early? Am I wrong? Well? Yeah, 36 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: but that's I guess that's more normal than sure, that's 37 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: consistency whereas yours. But but in my defense, I have 38 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: said in the past that the best time to record 39 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: is unless I'm hungover a weekend brunch time, because then 40 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: I can just pretend I'm at brunch. But but then 41 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: it's like you have to wake up and like think 42 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 1: about what you're gonna like you have to like write, 43 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: right Okay, so what's your idea of time? Like I 44 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: actually like right now is kind of perf for me, okay, 45 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: interesting for the listeners. Friday four thirty. Um, I think 46 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: it works so much better because you're like I like 47 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: a weekday, because it's like you know, it's like this 48 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: is like a we are like doing work, Like we 49 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: have to have our laptop open, we have to be 50 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: like short thing. We have to be in our homes 51 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: or in a studio. Um, anytime you are required to 52 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: be somewhere at a certain time that counts has worked 53 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: for me, by the way. Honestly, one of the biggest 54 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: this is one of the biggest Um, I would say 55 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: like turning points in terms of self empowerment for me 56 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: was choosing to refer to comedy as work, being like 57 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: I have work, and referring to a show or referring 58 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: to like a podcast, or referring to like literally me 59 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: working on like my script that's never going to be produced, 60 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: like druly just like essentially a hobby. Yeah, and just 61 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: being like oh yeah, this is this is work. And 62 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: I do think it's one of those things like if 63 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: you say it, if you look at yourself in the 64 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: mirror and you say it, then you will start believing 65 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: it and you're like, oh yes, even you know, when 66 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: you are at your at your day job, that's the 67 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: factory and you are harboring dreams of but one day 68 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: being a famous improviser, if you say it's work when 69 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: you're going to that UCB show, then it's gonna start 70 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: feeling like work. You know. What the comedian and general 71 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: performer writer multi hyphen industry needs is a little like 72 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: we need like a doctor or like a professor, Like 73 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: we need like a little what is what was that called? Like, um, 74 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: you need a degree? Like oh like we literally like 75 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 1: a I am like yeah, yeah, I think that would 76 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: like add the proper weight too, because it's like we 77 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 1: it doesn't need to be acknowledge that we are spending 78 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: time on something and it's very specific. But at the 79 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: same time, right now it's embarrassing to say because it's like, well, 80 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm just a guy and I'm just a podcaster, and 81 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: I don't want to say like I'm a comedian slash 82 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: podcaster slash writing I would rather die. Are never gonna 83 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 1: get made. Um, First of all, you have to just 84 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: say I'm a writer. And then and then of course 85 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: people are like what do you and you're like no, 86 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: no, no no, no no, this isn't a therapy session, Like 87 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: take it or leave it. I am a writer. I 88 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: actually think one of the funnier things is like, how 89 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: like successful can one person be without having their work 90 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: ever be seen? Like how like much money can one 91 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: make without ever being publicly known to be successful in 92 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: literally entertainment, Because I actually think it's a lot. Wait, 93 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: you're saying without getting stuff produced? Yes to me, I'm 94 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: like when I think of someone, basically, my impression of 95 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: everyone in Los Angeles is that they're all constantly making 96 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: a ton of money doing revisions of scripts and none 97 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: of it is ever getting produced. So it's like your 98 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 1: job is you just get like a constant stream of scripts. 99 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: And it's like, well, you know, who is someone we 100 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,679 Speaker 1: don't care about that I don't want to impress Chris Catan. 101 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: Chris Catan. Think Chris Catan has a new comedy and 102 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: all the women are underwritten, So like, the script comes 103 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: to this person and she's like Okay, let's see here, 104 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: you should add like, you should add something that's like Nevertheless, 105 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: she persistent, and then she gets paid five billion dollars 106 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: and then she's like, all right, well on to the 107 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: next That movie obviously never gets made because it's during 108 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: Chris Katan and then you know, it's the next morning. 109 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: She's like, okay, great, what's on the docket for today? 110 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: And someone sends her a script and they're like, you know, 111 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: Refinery twenty nine is doing a promo campaign for skims, 112 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: but unfortunately all the words are slurs. Can you edit 113 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: it so that it's not offensive? And she's like, yeah, absolutely, 114 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 1: I have years of experience doing that. She does that 115 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 1: another five billion dollars, and the next thing you know, 116 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: her kid is at Harvard Westlake. Wow. I mean that 117 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: sounds like a dream career, to be honest, saying literally, 118 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 1: how do I wait, this is my biggest question in 119 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: the entertainment industry. How do I get paid to do 120 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: quote unquote punch ups? Because I'm available? I think that's 121 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: how you do it. I think now everyone knows. Everyone 122 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: just everyone thought you were super busy, because you know, 123 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: we talk so much on this podcast about how busy 124 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: we are. Yeah, I want to go back and say, 125 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: you know, to Chris Katan, I'm sorry. You know you 126 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: raised me, and I'm not going to pretend that like 127 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: Night of the Roxbury wasn't monumental in my life and 128 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: in fact, um and even when you were the little 129 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: monkey on SNL that would spit the apple and be horny, 130 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: I thought that was genius. And yeah, maybe you're not 131 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: cut out for like actual film and TV, and that's okay, 132 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: Like you are valid and you have put in really 133 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: good work. Yeah, and by the way, if your co star, 134 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: our boss Will Farrell, here's any of this. We're joking 135 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: and in fact, let's take all of that. I literally 136 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: am it's just now occurring to me a Night at 137 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: the Roxbury. The other performer is, in fact Will Farrell. 138 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean I will. I think we can 139 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,239 Speaker 1: keep it in because I'm gonna literally say I love 140 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: that movie. I love that, I love that movie and 141 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: and in fact I love like there are very few 142 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: people men of that generation that I would actually look 143 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: back on and be like, oh, they were overrated. In fact, 144 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: we're all geniuses. Yeah, I mean, and Chris Keat, it 145 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: doesn't Chris Kadan has had a flop career. It's okay 146 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: to say that I cannot believe this. They are pulling 147 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: the plug as we speak. They are literally taking our 148 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: content off of the feed. Oh my god, But so 149 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: have we like we are? We are? That's beautiful probably, 150 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: But actually this brings me to my next thing that 151 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: I sort of wanted to see if you agreed with me, 152 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: and I was going to text you about this off air, 153 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: but now that we're here, there's no going back. Here's 154 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: my question for you. Oh, today is March seventeenth. This 155 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: is probably gonna come out in April. Do you think 156 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:45,119 Speaker 1: that we should start campaigning to get literally any Pride campaign? Yeah, 157 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: I think. I want to say, unless it is something 158 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: that directly contributes to the military industrial complex, I'm open 159 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: to it. Yeah. I want to make it very clear 160 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: that we are open, We are available.

I'm going to shut up heaven on Earth. 248 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: First of all, you said that comedians need a Jurish doctorate. 249 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: I see what you're saying, and I want, like I do. 250 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: On one end, I do understand that weedy because I'm 251 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 1: a comedian, thanks for reading my bio, and I'm a writer, 252 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: I'm a podcaster. But I feel like people think it's 253 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: just a fucking clown show I get on stage. It's 254 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: not a set that I've rehearsed. It's not hours and 255 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 1: hours of me embarrassing myself doing self tapes.

And I'm like, but 258 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: every line of dialogue is so important, So I get 259 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: why we need a title. But on the other side 260 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: of me, the more cynical side, is saying, well, comedy 261 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: is one of the biggest pyramid schemes in the game, baby, 262 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: and that and we're talking about we're talking about pyramid 263 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: schemes for straight people. Let's talk about improv, okay, and all. 264 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: The last thing we need is a title that's out there. 265 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: First of all, academia in general, pyramid scheme. You need 266 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: a degree to get another degree, to tell people to 267 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: get a degree. First of all, pyramid scheme.

Yoga, yoga, the teaching that, 282 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: the one hundred hours of teaching Pyramid scheme. Um, you 283 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: know what emids team Just like the general concept of 284 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: Malcolm Gladwell saying we need ten thousand hours? Is that 285 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: what you were saying before me? Yeah? I don't you 286 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: know how like this whole thing is like to do Yeah, 287 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: to be good at anything, you have to do it 288 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: for ten thousand hours, which I kind of get. I mean, okay, 289 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: so my friend is a professional makeup artist, and she's 290 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: told me the l CUJ gave her life advice, which 291 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: was I know, I know, I know, overnight sensations are 292 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 1: ten years in the making, right, So to me, that's 293 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 1: a more apt thing to what Malcolm Gladwell saying. But 294 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: basically it's just like which I think you know, in 295 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: the age of TikTok and social media, a lot of 296 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: people be getting it twisted.

But as school a pyramid 298 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: scheme probably, But it's just like you gotta put in hours, 299 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: you gotta put in work. You can't just show up 300 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: somewhere and be the boss. But then if they exploit 301 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: you and take your money the whole time you're trying 302 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: to be the boss, it's a pyramid scheme. Sorry, education 303 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: was free, then it wouldn't be a pyramid scheme. Well, yeah, 304 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: because K through twelve not a pyramid game, right, true, 305 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: but intentionally, but is it a pyramid scheme in practice? 306 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: Where charter schools, charter schools, charter schools are pyramid schemes 307 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: for a sharp period point blank.

Yeah that's true. 408 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: Actually I was being probably negative. You're right, You're right, Millie. 409 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: They could haven't arrange No, they couldn't, But you know what, 410 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: I get it. But yeah, that's fun but that's someone See, 411 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: that's someone I don't want to hear gossip about. That's 412 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 1: over steeped. That's overstep that's too much caffeine for tea. Yeah, 413 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,719 Speaker 1: you didn't take the timer went off and you were 414 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: neglecting it. That's that kind of team, you know. Million 415 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: you're sort of pointing to an interesting distinction to bring 416 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,199 Speaker 1: it back to the topic of our podcast between like 417 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: straight gossip and gay gossip. It's like, actually, for a 418 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,959 Speaker 1: straight person that could count a gossip that someone hit 419 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: on her. And I don't want to project a sexuality 420 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,120 Speaker 1: onto your friend, whoever it is. But I do think 421 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: that in general, in the LGBTQ plus community, with if 422 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 1: much higher standards, reward counts as gossip. Would you agree, no? Okay, 423 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 1: because okay, okay, First of all, this is my thing, right, 424 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 1: A normal somebody hitting on a normal somebody. It's not 425 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: gossip to me because as a woman, people hit on 426 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: you all the time, like it's not new, it's you 427 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: got men straight men are fucking horny, like they're gonna um. 428 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 1: In Dominican Republic, they call guys like that escoba confada, 429 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: which means if a broom or a skirt he would 430 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: try to talk to it. So that's what I'm saying, like, 431 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 1: that's not tea because that happens all the time. Meanwhile, 432 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: on the flip side, in my experience, which I don't know, 433 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 1: I don't know what you guys know about me, I'm 434 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: unfortunately straight, um, but I'm queer in the sense that 435 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 1: two thousand the Lady Gaga two thousand and nine vmme 436 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: performance does that has an emotional effect on me, and 437 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: I do recognize it.

Ure's something You're like a really beautiful era 485 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 1: when like in early college when slowly people become gay, 486 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: when it's like becomes like that is like that is 487 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: the two year period where like, oops, that guy's gay. 488 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 1: Oh did you hear that guy's gay? Oh my, And 489 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 1: it's like a rapid fire of like everyone becoming gay, 490 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 1: and it feels like there's a moment where it feels 491 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: like every single person into high school it is gonna 492 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 1: be gay now. But really it's just like five guys, 493 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: um well, and I wonder if yeah, and I you're 494 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: saying the era, but I'm also like, I wonder if 495 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: that happens now today, or if like social media and 496 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 1: grinder has like changed things show that people, you know, 497 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: I wonder, or if that's just like always just like 498 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,239 Speaker 1: that period of time where you know, people become more 499 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,959 Speaker 1: comfortable with their sexuality and they're always going to come 500 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: out at the time, or now that they're social media, 501 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: people see themselves more. You know, you know, who knows 502 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: nineteen year old on yeah, have an nineteen year old 503 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 1: I would sort of imagine that now. I guess I 504 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: don't know much like everything, I think it's just so 505 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: splintered that everyone just has radically different experience. I think 506 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 1: like there are people that are literally coming out like 507 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 1: out of the womb, like voguing, and then there are 508 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: people that grew up in like super reactionary environments where 509 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 1: if anything, it could be like even worse than it was, 510 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: And then you know, like I don't know, because they're 511 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: America is so divided. America Alaska Daily, you guys watch 512 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: Alaska Daily. That's a good show. But I've never even 513 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: heard of this. It's it's playing a local reporter, right, 514 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: and yeah, she gets canceled. She works for a New 515 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: York Times whatever. She gets canceled by another female employee, 516 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,239 Speaker 1: so that Alaska. So she goes to Alaska because they 517 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 1: hire her in her local paper. And it's all like 518 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: both sides they're bad canceled cultures. It's tar but instead 519 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: of music, it's reporting, and instead of the Philippines it's Alaska. Um. 520 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: I feel like tar like tar Um, Tar is actually evil, 521 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 1: whereas like Hilary Swink, like there you're rooting for her 522 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: and she doesn't like sleep with young women. She was 523 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: rubbing canceled like yeah, yeah, it's like an yeah, I see, 524 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: I see. She's an innocent victim of the of canceled 525 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: cancel culture. Because I feel like tar exactly. I feel 526 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: like tar Um is making a point of like it's 527 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 1: not pro cancel culture, but it's not anti Yeah. I 528 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: think it's like but yeah, you're meant to you're meant 529 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: to see her as a monster. Yeah. Um. But I 530 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: feel like Alaska Daily's like, guys, we need to turn 531 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: down the temperature in the room. We're all Americans. It's 532 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: just like the left is bad, the right is bad. 533 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: Everyone's too like everyone can't you know. And this one, 534 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: this one like diners, like everything's getting so political, so 535 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: spoiler alert. This one like woman that owns a diner, 536 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: Like she's to like enjoy having people for her famous pancakes, 537 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: but like now everything's so politicized that like she can't 538 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: handle anymore. So she just she says she's closing, and 539 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: then she just lights it on fire because like everyone's 540 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: just so America. Damn that actually, maybe like we need 541 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: to be having more fun with our TV shows. Like 542 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: Republican TV shows are really taking big swings, and it's 543 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: I wouldn't even say it's a Republican show because there 544 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: are people of color who aren't evil on it. Like 545 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: Blue Bloods is a Republican TV show because every single 546 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 1: person of color, like every it's blue Bloods is like 547 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: law and Order, but if every time there's a black criminal, 548 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: they're like, wow, we should have profiled him.

I am one hundred percent a second 701 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 1: place person in a way that I didn't identify like 702 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:11,960 Speaker 1: that until you guys. No, No, it's okay. You did. 703 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: You did deep inside. Yeah you knew. Yeah, you just 704 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: hadn't really admit it to yourself. Yeah, just because your 705 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 1: therapist had diarrhea. You haven't made that connection yet. But 706 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 1: soon as soon as she has her little tongues and 707 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 1: settles her stomach, you will. You will come to that 708 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 1: conclusion on your own time. Man, I hope it's diarrhea 709 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,919 Speaker 1: and not like I cannot listen to this bitch's problems today. 710 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 1: Oh man, God, do you assume whenever anyone cancels on 711 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 1: you that it's diarrhea or just this therapist in particular? 712 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: This is fascinating. Every time I cancel, I say it's diarrhea, um, 713 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 1: because then no one asked follow up questions. And that's 714 00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 1: the here because I'm like, and then also like, diarrhea 715 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 1: is one of those things that it really sucks, like 716 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: you can't you know what I mean. Like cold, it's 717 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:02,879 Speaker 1: like I'm feeling a cold. It's like, okay, bitch, take 718 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: some fucking medicine and get your ass out. But diarrhea 719 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 1: is like, yeah, girls stay at home, and then no 720 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 1: one's ever. And then it's also like if they see 721 00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 1: him on Instagram later that day or the next day, 722 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: they're not gonna be like, oh, that's you had a cold, 723 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: be like, oh man, yeah, diarrhea did suck for three hours. 724 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:25,439 Speaker 1: This is one genius.

It's like uh huh, like what else? Right? Well, anyway, 728 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,080 Speaker 1: say food poisoning, because food poisoning is specific enough that 729 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:45,440 Speaker 1: people believe it. Yeah, okay, but well, food poisoning is 730 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 1: such a cliche, fake excuse. Yeah. Ultimately, here's the thing 731 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: with food poisoning is, on the one hand, it's legit 732 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:54,879 Speaker 1: enough that people will accept it. On the other hand, 733 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 1: they will never actually believe you. So you have to 734 00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,320 Speaker 1: be okay with like getting what you want, which is 735 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 1: not working and also being considered a liar bout your 736 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 1: entire commedian. But if you say diarrhea, they're like, god, damn, 737 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: she said diarrhea, Like she must really be sick if 738 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 1: you're if you're really going to go there, which is like, 739 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 1: if you're wanting to get what you want and you 740 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:18,240 Speaker 1: don't have any fucking shame or dignity, you'll just say diarrhea. 741 00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 1: And that's what makes me a good comedian is that 742 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:26,319 Speaker 1: I have no self respect and I will do that.

Let me tell you something, Okay, 825 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 1: half of being a single woman in New York City, 826 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,839 Speaker 1: single woman anywhere. Half of the struggle is figuring out 827 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 1: if the guys are Republican or not. Right. So to 828 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: be in a space where everyone is at least a democrat, great, 829 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,120 Speaker 1: we're starting good. We're starting good, whether or not there's 830 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:01,239 Speaker 1: chemistry whatever. But at least I know I don't have 831 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:04,960 Speaker 1: to have like literally, I couldn't play a game of 832 00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 1: like is this guy a Republican or not on like 833 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 1: with dating apps, because they will hint to edit some 834 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,360 Speaker 1: of them, like I didn't get the jaz the fauci OUCHI, 835 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 1: and you're like what or like you know, if they 836 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,439 Speaker 1: say too many things of like don't like drama, it's 837 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 1: like okay, yeah, So to just be in a space 838 00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:26,799 Speaker 1: I was already open to it. But yes, it was fun. 839 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:30,920 Speaker 1: It was great. There were some really great guys. I met, 840 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,360 Speaker 1: like a history professor. I met a guy who was 841 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 1: like unionizing the Starbucks. He works out, Like it was 842 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:38,920 Speaker 1: really cool. So I had a lot of fun and 843 00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 1: people were gaming. I will definitely I don't have any 844 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:45,280 Speaker 1: shame about that. Like I think the thing is too 845 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,640 Speaker 1: A lot of problems with like dating events is that 846 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,400 Speaker 1: men don't show up. It's this whole it's this whole 847 00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 1: dichotomy where it's like guys are complaining, like you can't 848 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 1: even talk to a woman anymore. But then there's tons 849 00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 1: of singles events out there and no guys show up 850 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:03,120 Speaker 1: to them. And then it's like all these single women 851 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 1: that like are in a space for guys to talk 852 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,320 Speaker 1: to them, and no one wants. It's just like crazy. 853 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 1: So but socialists there there the guts showed up. I mean, 854 00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: you know that the idea of a singles event, I mean, 855 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 1: talk about straight culture and talk about like a wow, 856 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 1: a true staple of straight culture that if if anything 857 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:24,279 Speaker 1: is is dying out because of online dating, but is 858 00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:28,360 Speaker 1: so um a part of our conception of straight culture 859 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 1: through film and TV and through like representation of it 860 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:35,839 Speaker 1: on tv UM.

But the like 999 00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:47,480 Speaker 1: orange juice with a burger is so nasty. Now, it's 1000 00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 1: orange hic, it's orange hice. It's so good. It's so good. Really, 1001 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:56,160 Speaker 1: I've had orange chice. It's basically like orange flavored fruit punch. 1002 00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:58,960 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. It's not orange juice. It's 1003 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 1: not orange juice. It's closer to a sun kissed but 1004 00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 1: with no carbonation. Huh. Well, I'm learning a lot every 1005 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 1: single day you're learning. I'm teaching you about the straight culture. 1006 00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 1: Another straight thing about McDonald's I feel is even like 1007 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,520 Speaker 1: the happy meal where it's like, you know, sort of 1008 00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 1: this forced smile. Everything is to be like so so 1009 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:23,360 Speaker 1: happy and you can't like be even a little bit 1010 00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:26,640 Speaker 1: like down. Like if it were queer, it would be like, 1011 00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:29,680 Speaker 1: you know, however you are feeling meal like, it would 1012 00:59:29,720 --> 00:59:34,400 Speaker 1: be like totally you know. Also I mean you point 1013 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,120 Speaker 1: to the Happy Meal, and it's like, I think a 1014 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,720 Speaker 1: huge part of it is that they start you young. 1015 00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 1: Like McDonald's more than any of its peers, appeals to children. 1016 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 1: It has a mascot that is like a sort of 1017 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 1: like kids party clown. It has happy meals that have 1018 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:52,440 Speaker 1: that like define your childhood. It has the bright colors 1019 00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 1: that make it look like you're in a sort of 1020 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:57,680 Speaker 1: like playground jungle gym environment. I mean, it is like 1021 00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:01,080 Speaker 1: you are brainwashed from day want Even if your family 1022 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:03,600 Speaker 1: doesn't go to McDonald's, you're defined by being one of 1023 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:05,560 Speaker 1: those families that your parents don't allow you to go 1024 01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 1: to McDonald's. And so no matter what if you grew 1025 01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:09,560 Speaker 1: up with it or if you didn't grow up with it, 1026 01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:13,360 Speaker 1: McDonald's is a nostalgic does bring you back to a 1027 01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:18,240 Speaker 1: sort of childhood innocence well. And also the thing about 1028 01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:22,640 Speaker 1: the Happy Meal is that you know your memories of 1029 01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 1: McDonald's is associated with playing in that play that fucking 1030 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 1: disgusting flapmen. But like you want and you and you 1031 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 1: get a toy with a meal, like you don't get 1032 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:35,560 Speaker 1: a toy with any other meal. So like when you 1033 01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 1: want a McDonald's meal again. It's the it's that thing 1034 01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:42,760 Speaker 1: of like, oh, you know, this director came to my 1035 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,720 Speaker 1: college and he was talking about like you know, it's 1036 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 1: all about nostalgia and then the sensory memory that things 1037 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:51,880 Speaker 1: like people kids want happy meals, or people even in 1038 01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 1: their adulthood go to McDonald's because and it's not because 1039 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,120 Speaker 1: they love the first of all, the fries are slamming, 1040 01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:01,480 Speaker 1: but also it's because of their memory of like my 1041 01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 1: parents took me here when I was a kid. I 1042 01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:06,560 Speaker 1: got ice cream and I played with my friends and 1043 01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:08,800 Speaker 1: all that, and you have that memory with it, and 1044 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:12,920 Speaker 1: that's why McDonald's is so great and toxic and straight 1045 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:18,240 Speaker 1: and evil. I have another Okay, McDonald's is also like 1046 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:21,040 Speaker 1: of fast food, it is the one that is normal, 1047 01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:23,880 Speaker 1: like that is the baseline and everything else is like 1048 01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:27,840 Speaker 1: a variation on McDonald's where it's like like even like Arby's, 1049 01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 1: you're like, well, that's queer.

If I would say, well, 1051 01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:41,919 Speaker 1: I would have said white trash. But interesting that you said. 1052 01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:45,200 Speaker 1: But I feel like, you know, it's que queer of 1053 01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:48,920 Speaker 1: if wasp is straight white trash is queer. Yeah, if 1054 01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 1: sort of sort of a country club wasp wearing a 1055 01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:57,680 Speaker 1: lavender polo is straight, then you know, a sort of 1056 01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 1: bronzer route showing short skirt, white woman is queer. I 1057 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 1: just feel like there are better examples of like a 1058 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:15,480 Speaker 1: more gay restaurant work, because I feel like a lot 1059 01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:19,720 Speaker 1: of Republicans love Arbi's no, that's fair, that's fair.

That's literally me being like I can't 1131 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:10,120 Speaker 1: podcast on Sundays because I went out on Saturday. Wait, 1132 01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:12,040 Speaker 1: I want to return to McDonald's because I feel like 1133 01:07:12,640 --> 01:07:16,720 Speaker 1: a so okay, we've gotten to like they start you young. Oh. 1134 01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:20,600 Speaker 1: Another thing I would say is and maybe I'm wrong, 1135 01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:22,640 Speaker 1: but I'm not going to look this up to me. McDonald's, 1136 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:26,280 Speaker 1: especially with happy meals, really pioneered a form of brand partnership, 1137 01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:28,520 Speaker 1: like the fact that you know a movie was coming out, 1138 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:31,440 Speaker 1: so you knew that the toy would be from that movie, 1139 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:34,480 Speaker 1: and so in that sense, it's also like tied to 1140 01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 1: global capital. Yeah I buy that. Um. I Also, you 1141 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:44,680 Speaker 1: know what's dark that came out? I think this year 1142 01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:48,080 Speaker 1: or last year was the adult Happy Meal, which is 1143 01:07:48,120 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 1: an adult sized happy Meal. Did I get it? Yes? 1144 01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:55,720 Speaker 1: Do I have the toy? Absolutely? I have nothing else. 1145 01:07:57,800 --> 01:08:00,000 Speaker 1: It was like for Mental Health Awareness Month or something, 1146 01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 1: they made like many different emotions meals, so it wasn't 1147 01:08:02,640 --> 01:08:05,680 Speaker 1: just happy meal. It was like anxious meal. Like, no, 1148 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:08,880 Speaker 1: I don't remember that what you wanted, George, isn't that 1149 01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:13,000 Speaker 1: what you just said? Hold on? Oh no, it was 1150 01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:17,200 Speaker 1: burger King. Oh so they were kind of coming from McDonald's. Yeah, 1151 01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:19,160 Speaker 1: they're sort of making fun of them. I had a 1152 01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:23,360 Speaker 1: teacher tell me that burger King is British because they 1153 01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:29,080 Speaker 1: liked a monarchy. It's not fucking so much misinformation in 1154 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:33,360 Speaker 1: Florida public schools, but anyway, oh my god, it's literally 1155 01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:36,559 Speaker 1: the thing was no one is happy all the time 1156 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:41,240 Speaker 1: was the marketing language. And there was a d gaff meal, 1157 01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:44,880 Speaker 1: a pissed meal, get ready, a yass meal. So this 1158 01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:47,439 Speaker 1: was very rich. No, this isn't real. This is real 1159 01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:51,599 Speaker 1: burger king emotion meal. Is that what he looked at? 1160 01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:55,880 Speaker 1: Burger King.

It's like, I'm not 1316 01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:05,240 Speaker 1: eating it every day whatever, but sometimes I'm gonna eat it, 1317 01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:08,040 Speaker 1: and I feel like people get fucking ashamed or there 1318 01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:10,640 Speaker 1: there's a shame around it or whatever, or they're like 1319 01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:12,880 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do it.

It's like 1329 01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:42,719 Speaker 1: they don't want the stigma of ordering McDonald's, not Dexter 1330 01:18:42,760 --> 01:18:44,840 Speaker 1: and did you know David. But I'm just saying other 1331 01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:46,680 Speaker 1: people we were with the like that's to say, the 1332 01:18:46,800 --> 01:18:48,800 Speaker 1: shame and they don't want the stigma of being like, 1333 01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:52,920 Speaker 1: oh yeah, I'm gonna order for McDonald's. But motherfucker, these 1334 01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:56,519 Speaker 1: people fucked my shit up. They get all my fries, 1335 01:18:56,800 --> 01:18:59,160 Speaker 1: they eat they're asking for and I'm just like, why 1336 01:18:59,160 --> 01:19:01,040 Speaker 1: don't you you know what I mean. And it's like, 1337 01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:04,000 Speaker 1: and I think people have this shame of like, well, 1338 01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:05,599 Speaker 1: I don't want to be that person goes to McDonald's. 1339 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:07,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to blah blah. And I feel like 1340 01:19:07,400 --> 01:19:09,360 Speaker 1: that is also tied to body image thing of like 1341 01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:11,800 Speaker 1: I already know that people are gonna think I'm fat 1342 01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 1: or whatever because of how I see me. So I 1343 01:19:13,800 --> 01:19:16,080 Speaker 1: don't really give a fuck if you see me eating McDonald's. 1344 01:19:16,120 --> 01:19:18,360 Speaker 1: But people feel some kind of way. But guess what, 1345 01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:20,559 Speaker 1: when the fries are in their face, they're eating all 1346 01:19:20,600 --> 01:19:22,559 Speaker 1: of it, and I'm like, you could have just told 1347 01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:24,439 Speaker 1: me you want some fries. And that's what I say 1348 01:19:24,479 --> 01:19:29,000 Speaker 1: about McDonald's, and that's my straight pride. Interesting what you 1349 01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:33,080 Speaker 1: say about like the body image element, because to me, 1350 01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:37,400 Speaker 1: in fact, one of the reasons I wouldn't go to 1351 01:19:37,760 --> 01:19:39,280 Speaker 1: a place like McDonald's is because I feel like the 1352 01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:41,080 Speaker 1: portions are so tiny and you have to end up 1353 01:19:41,160 --> 01:19:43,200 Speaker 1: ordering like three burgers to be full. Whereas if I 1354 01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:47,760 Speaker 1: go to like a a quote unquote fancy Brooklyn American 1355 01:19:47,800 --> 01:19:50,720 Speaker 1: restaurant and order the bigger, I know I will be 1356 01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:52,599 Speaker 1: satisfied by the end, and it's gonna come with like 1357 01:19:52,760 --> 01:19:56,080 Speaker 1: a bucket of like thick cut fries. The burger is 1358 01:19:56,080 --> 01:20:00,360 Speaker 1: gonna be like thick and juicy, and you're getting nasty. Oh, 1359 01:20:01,720 --> 01:20:05,360 Speaker 1: I'm so perverted. I honestly, I am both hungry and 1360 01:20:05,479 --> 01:20:13,160 Speaker 1: horny right now. So it's really it's Friday. I can't money. 1361 01:20:13,320 --> 01:20:16,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, wait, I'm really hungry and horny. That's why 1362 01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:21,720 Speaker 1: you gotta only record ninety five am on Monday.

Well, 1366 01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:41,599 Speaker 1: I want to come out and officially say that Um, 1367 01:20:41,880 --> 01:20:45,479 Speaker 1: McDonald's breakfast has a lot of hype and lives up 1368 01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:47,479 Speaker 1: to it. And I will say that I am a 1369 01:20:47,520 --> 01:20:51,160 Speaker 1: supporter of that hype. A mcgriddle is um so good, 1370 01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:55,600 Speaker 1: and yes, I that is when I stand McDonald's the 1371 01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:59,200 Speaker 1: most um.

I don't know why 1375 01:21:12,800 --> 01:21:14,720 Speaker 1: they would just do fake meat because it's like it's 1376 01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:16,760 Speaker 1: not doesn't taste like real meat. Just make it. It's 1377 01:21:16,920 --> 01:21:20,080 Speaker 1: so Yes, I think they should hear my plan for McDonald's. 1378 01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:23,280 Speaker 1: They should do fake meat meat but not advertise it 1379 01:21:23,400 --> 01:21:27,800 Speaker 1: because it's a win win just lie to just lie 1380 01:21:27,840 --> 01:21:29,839 Speaker 1: to people and tell them it's me. But don't all 1381 01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:32,120 Speaker 1: do that. And they got and they got sold. Um, 1382 01:21:32,200 --> 01:21:35,080 Speaker 1: they got like I guess literally they got sued. Yeah 1383 01:21:35,160 --> 01:21:37,360 Speaker 1: you can't actually like you got sued.

Six glasses of water, seven phone calls? 1443 01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:42,200 Speaker 1: If you leave it alone, it just might happen anyway. 1444 01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:44,600 Speaker 1: It's not up to you. It never really was. That 1445 01:24:44,840 --> 01:24:47,760 Speaker 1: is literally the most genius lyricism I have heard in 1446 01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:50,479 Speaker 1: my entire life, and guess what. Anyone who thinks York 1447 01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:53,080 Speaker 1: is some wood nymph living in a treehouse that has like, 1448 01:24:53,400 --> 01:24:55,800 Speaker 1: you know, rainbows coming out of her ears, she's literally 1449 01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:58,559 Speaker 1: writing about developing a morning routine, and she's writing about 1450 01:24:58,560 --> 01:25:01,160 Speaker 1: being productive, and she's writing about that right, being a freelancer, 1451 01:25:01,240 --> 01:25:04,679 Speaker 1: because York is a freelancer who actually made it happen 1452 01:25:04,720 --> 01:25:07,080 Speaker 1: for herself, something that I have not quite figured out yet. 1453 01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:09,080 Speaker 1: And so I am looking to B York for inspiration. 1454 01:25:09,120 --> 01:25:11,599 Speaker 1: I'm waking up every day and I am saying, I'm 1455 01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:14,040 Speaker 1: gonna have six classes of water, seven phone calls, but 1456 01:25:14,120 --> 01:25:16,560 Speaker 1: then I'm gonna just be comfortable with the fact that 1457 01:25:16,720 --> 01:25:19,519 Speaker 1: it's not up to me, because the day has plans 1458 01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:21,840 Speaker 1: for me and I'm not the one making them. And 1459 01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,040 Speaker 1: so thank you B. York for that realization. Thank you 1460 01:25:24,120 --> 01:25:28,960 Speaker 1: for that lesson, and God bless you Nolan forever, George, 1461 01:25:29,200 --> 01:25:31,000 Speaker 1: thank you for pointing that out. I actually do think 1462 01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:32,720 Speaker 1: a lot of people are like, oh, she's would like 1463 01:25:32,960 --> 01:25:35,200 Speaker 1: the perception is like, oh, she lives in the water 1464 01:25:35,360 --> 01:25:37,519 Speaker 1: and she's like alien, and it's like, no, she's actually 1465 01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:40,880 Speaker 1: a normal person and addresses that quite regularly. Yes, And 1466 01:25:41,040 --> 01:25:43,280 Speaker 1: all her songs are literally let me tell you something. 1467 01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:45,840 Speaker 1: And I'm not counting any album after like two thousand 1468 01:25:45,840 --> 01:25:47,559 Speaker 1: and three, like I understand that. Then she went off 1469 01:25:47,560 --> 01:25:49,360 Speaker 1: the deep end. But I mean, like I mean the 1470 01:25:49,520 --> 01:25:52,600 Speaker 1: main albums, like you know, debut or is that what 1471 01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:56,439 Speaker 1: it's called debut?

You're just not 1475 01:26:04,560 --> 01:26:09,320 Speaker 1: receiving that is literally like that is embroidered pillow level cliche. 1476 01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:11,960 Speaker 1: Like she she's just like saying it in a way 1477 01:26:12,040 --> 01:26:14,000 Speaker 1: that is York.
