1 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: Alrighty Sam, I think so okay, yeah, almost yeah, whatever, 2 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, actually so chill, I'm ready okay, okay, yeah, 3 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: podcast starts and how okay, podcast starts now, it's not 4 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: a big deal. No, the podcast is officially started. But 5 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 1: we're not stressing out about it. We're not putting too 6 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,839 Speaker 1: much weight on it. It's literally a podcast that just 7 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 1: exists in a sea of other podcasts. It's totally fine. Yeah, 8 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 1: it actually will never get noticed, you know, not to selpigrandize, 9 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: but I think we can push the limit on how 10 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 1: long someone can produce a podcast um on your own 11 00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: and have it be completely unnoticed by Pierce for ends, 12 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: family industry, other podcasters, completely under the radar. It is 13 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: very Um, it's very that book The Queer Art of Failure, 14 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 1: which was a huge hit a few years ago. I 15 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: never read it, but I was The title is very evocative. Um, 16 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: it's important to fail ironically. Yes, here's what I find 17 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: so inspiring about the book industry. So many times there 18 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: are huge hits that I've never heard of. I'm never 19 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: gonna pop open, and you know, I'll buy let's say 20 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: two books a year, and those aren't even those are 21 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: probably the hits from five years ago, and nevertheless, this 22 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: industry just moves on without me. And I think that 23 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,759 Speaker 1: is so powerful and the lesson that we can all learn. 24 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: I don't want to call you out, but I do 25 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: think if you're buying two books a year, it makes 26 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: sense that you're kind of missing out on a lot 27 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: of stuff. WHOA, I'm being attacked. I carry the book 28 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: industry on my back with those two books a year. 29 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: Every author on earth has me to thank for their 30 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: big home in the Hollywood Hills. Well, yeah, there's a 31 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: separate uh you know, there's a New York Times bestseller list, 32 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,399 Speaker 1: and then there's a list of the two books Sam 33 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: buys a year, and that's kind of like the most 34 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: it's it's it's even more restigious, in fact, than like 35 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: a Pulitzer or or even a MacArthur Genius Grant. Yeah, 36 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,399 Speaker 1: because what that means is you're getting the common man. 37 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: And and when you're winning the heart of a common 38 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:33,839 Speaker 1: man with taste who has butt pennies to his name 39 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: to spend on these two books a year, and you 40 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: win his heart. And when you pay in all pennies, 41 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: and there's always a kind of a ceremony that happens 42 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: at Union Hall or the Bell House or little Field 43 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: where you know, an author like let's say Margaret Atwood 44 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: will appear, and then you know, like a Patty Harrison 45 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: or Julio Torres will kind of present the award and say, 46 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: and this year, sambot these two books. And then you 47 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 1: will come out and umm, whe you wear a gown, 48 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: but it's funny. Um. And then you give the award 49 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: to Margaret Atwood. She cries. Every year it's always Margaret 50 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: who gets it right. And so that's the thing is 51 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,119 Speaker 1: that you keep buying The Handmaid's Tale every single year, 52 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: and you have all the additions. Um, it's you know. 53 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: You you have the one with the TV show cover 54 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 1: on it that says coming soon, you have the original one, 55 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: you have kind of the British cover, which is a 56 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: more kind of art deco vibe. You never read it. 57 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: But because I have a bookcase that's all the different 58 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 1: versions of The Handmaid's Tale. Well, every year I I 59 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: buy the book and I say, you know, me, spending 60 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: this money on this book will inspire me to read 61 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: it because I hate to waste money. And and every 62 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: year it just doesn't quite get there. And so I 63 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: buy it again next year, and I say, let this 64 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: inspire me. Will you buy it? And then you look 65 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: the cashier straight in the eyes and you say support women, 66 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: and then you and then you go home and put 67 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: it in the in the books like the rest of 68 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: the books in the bookshow of So, I have been 69 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: walking around all day today by myself, and when I 70 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:13,119 Speaker 1: walk around all day, I often gravitate towards thinking very conceptually. 71 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: The conversation about the book industry reminded me of this. 72 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: I have worked in three different industries in my life, 73 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: and they are tech, academia, and the entertainment industry. All 74 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: three of them you would think should expand the human 75 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: experience in some way. You know, one, Tech you're building technologies, 76 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,840 Speaker 1: Academia you're expanding knowledge. Entertainment you're making art. And yet 77 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 1: all three of them are kind of safe havens for 78 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: people with narcissistic personality disorder. And so I'm wondering, and 79 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: it's in the book industry. It seems, you know, all 80 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: it's doing is kind of making you go insane by 81 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: purchasing the same book month after month. And so I'm wondering, 82 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: what is it that we can do to restructure the 83 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: world so that, uh, so that people have the right 84 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: incentives to move forward. I guess I'm confused on the 85 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: question not too and then suld we bring in our guests. Well, well, 86 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: I just don't feel like we can move on immediately 87 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: after saying I'm confused. I think we should at least 88 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: try to sort of understand where you're coming from. I 89 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: want you to feel hurt. I want you to feel 90 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 1: understand when you have a thought to yourself and you 91 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: think it's so brilliant because you're walking kind of alone 92 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 1: on a street. Yeah, that's kind of what happened to me, 93 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: and I thought maybe it would it would lead to 94 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: something if I okay, wait, so your question is that 95 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: you want books to be more narcissistic or you want 96 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: more like okay, say the question again. I'm like, do 97 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: Jeremy not get it? Do they actually I understand question? 98 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: Can you? Can you guys explain? What is it? Do 99 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: you think that when you're reading a book when you're 100 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: in academia that you think it could be when it 101 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: does become more technology? The technology more than is it 102 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: more of? So the question than it leaves you with 103 00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: is is it more of the technology. Or when you're 104 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: reading a book, is it more that you are walking 105 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: around in your thoughts sort of consuming or is it 106 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 1: more question of how do we make this readable to 107 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: the general public? Does that make sense? So you're saying, 108 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: how can we make books popular? So it's like, if 109 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: you know, a book is a technology, a book is 110 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: the technology when you read it, you say, oh, I'm 111 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: walking on the street exactly. George got it. It's George's 112 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: question when you're reading a book. Okay, that's when you're 113 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: reading a book. When you're reading a book, that's a 114 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: form of technology. So you know, your your eyes, the 115 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: human brain, it all connects in a way. Uh where 116 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: once you read the book, you are already taking a walk. 117 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: So the book is the walk. Well it's kind of 118 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,679 Speaker 1: the opposite of that, and the book isn't the walk 119 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: until the technology exists to make it the walk. But 120 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 1: the limits of how these industries work, um like, preclude 121 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: that ever happening. I actually feel insane. I'm really trying 122 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: to understand what you're saying. So it's super clear to me. Yeah, 123 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: I mean like I don't and I don't feel like 124 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 1: I should have to explain this, but yeah, it should 125 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: be like just common sense. I feel that how many 126 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: books basically, and like this is a really reductive version 127 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: of this very sort of layered question that Georgia was 128 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: trying to ask. But how many books when you're walking? 129 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: Does it take for technology to become more of a 130 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: walking sort of technology book or is it more of 131 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: a question of what we was getting at it? When 132 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: you're walking to the technology? Are you at school? Yeah? 133 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: Well you bring into that and that's the thing is 134 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: that's what you bring to it, and you brought like 135 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: the school thing touches on the academia element of the 136 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: of the original question, because I think off I think 137 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: Jeremy did such a good job of explaining at the beginning, 138 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: but he lost that one part which then you brought 139 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: in and if I could add, you know, the third 140 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: part of it. You know, the three things I mentioned 141 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: were academia, tech, and entertainment. So you're taking a walk 142 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: the technology of the book, but also you the connection 143 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: between the two is school. But then all of that 144 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: is art. Yes, Oh Sam, what do you think? I think? Um? 145 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: You know, I feel left out, I feel made fun of, 146 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: I feel disregarded. I feel, um, I'm sort of the 147 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,479 Speaker 1: forgotten man, I'm the last generation. I'm I'm a wanderer. 148 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:57,239 Speaker 1: I'm well, you're that's the first step. And the wanderer 149 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: is someone in search of knowledge through technology on a 150 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: walk exactly. Those are not lost they are technology books. 151 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: And with that, I think maybe we should introduce our 152 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:19,079 Speaker 1: guests today. Um huh is that okay? I sense of 153 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: fear for me? Yeah, if I can be completely honest, 154 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 1: I do have a sense of fear today. Yeah. I 155 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: sensed it as for mentioned, and I don't know why 156 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: I haven't quite unpacked it. I'm not a therapist, for 157 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: Christ's sake. I'm just one man with therapy is not 158 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: one of the three prongs of my theory. No. Um, 159 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: So you know, I think the best thing to do 160 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,479 Speaker 1: is face your fears and bring in our guests officially. 161 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: Um who for some reason I am afraid of today? Please. 162 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:55,319 Speaker 1: I do want to say before you continue, I'm sense 163 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: you know this is this obsession with putting labels on 164 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: things like I feel like I'm already in conversation with 165 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:05,199 Speaker 1: both our guests. Now backtrack and do an intro? Seems 166 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: so um conservative politically, and yet I feel like it's 167 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: so natural and and even the way that the guests 168 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: sort of stopped talking, almost as if on cue. It 169 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: felt it just feels like this is sort of how 170 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: the conversation wants to work. Yeah, well the queue was 171 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: you saying you were going to introduce them, um, which 172 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,719 Speaker 1: you did after cutting them off. Are we going to 173 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: get introduced or? And I do agree it did feel 174 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: sort of conservative politically and almost reaction I would have 175 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: felt very politically reactionary. Yeah, that's weird, you know. I 176 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: just feel like in a healthy sort of podcast, there 177 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: can be some liberal um structures and there can be 178 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: some conservative structures and really healthy and then you find 179 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: common grounds reaching across the aisle. Yes, that's good, that's good. 180 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: So healthy, you know, healthy pretty prescriptive word. I mean, 181 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: you know, it's very like, what's you know, being normal? 182 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: I'm not telling the liberal textbook? Yeah, did you hear that? 183 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: What they did? It again? They naturally could feel that 184 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: we were going to introduce them, and they got so 185 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: I feel like I should give it some space. But 186 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: right before it's going to be such a big moment 187 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: when I just think, I think, okay, George, I just 188 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: think that's no. I think sometimes you ignore sort of 189 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 1: the natural flows that the podcast makes and on all 190 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: I'm trying to do is give respect to to that 191 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: structure and the you know, it's it's sort of a 192 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,559 Speaker 1: chicken or the eye. We don't know which came first, 193 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: the podcast structure or uh, sort of like disrupting the 194 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: podcast structure. Yes, right, so yeah, I just think that 195 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,199 Speaker 1: both the natural and unnatural can exist together. Finally we're 196 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: getting a progressive place. This is this is liberal owns 197 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: liberal owns conservative reactionary. Anyway, let's introduce our guests. So 198 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: today we have two hilarious comedians to awesome sauce guys 199 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: that are rocking the comedy landscape. These guys, god, I 200 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: mean they're gonna be fucking huge. I mean fuck. When 201 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: I saw these guys, I said, damn, that's freaking comedy 202 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: and it's actually punk rock and it is so so 203 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: Now I heard them on Comedy Bang Bang playing the 204 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: Squar Brothers in a sketch about healthcare, and it actually 205 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: changed my mind on the issue, and now I don't 206 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,439 Speaker 1: no longer support a single pair these guys. When they 207 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: did fall in, you know, say what you will about 208 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: sort of you know, the way they performed obviously, there 209 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 1: there's room for critique. Yeah, the way they performed was 210 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: not good, but it's sort of it changed the game 211 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 1: and changed to argue it didn't change the game. It 212 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: changed the game, and you know, and not in a 213 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 1: bad way. Yeah, the game is worse. It's not fun 214 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: to play anymore. The game is worse anyway. It's Welcome 215 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 1: to the podcast, Jeremy Levick, and thank you so much. Hey, 216 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, and thank you for not mentioning our 217 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: Kimmel appearance where we dressed off as Jimmy Kimmel and 218 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: talked about and cried about healthcare. Yeah, we cried about 219 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 1: his son. Yeah, we were too, and we both cried 220 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: about our son. Yeah, and you did that like literally 221 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 1: the day after he cried about his son, So it 222 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 1: felt a little too soon, you don't mind me. Yeah, yeah, 223 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 1: we wrote that before he did his speech. Yeah, we 224 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: just thought it would be funny if he was crying 225 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 1: about his son. Parallel parallel thought or did he steal 226 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 1: it from you? Probably? I think he stole it from us. Yeah, 227 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: but he's a great guy. No, no, no, no he's not. 228 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: He's always been very nice to me. Yeah, he's super 229 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: nice to me about says, yes, that's really good. I 230 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 1: actually think we should, um, somebody should be keeping score 231 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: of who's getting owned and how many times began trying 232 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: to place a regimented framework on something so natural and free? 233 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: My god, is it that wrong to try to, I 234 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: don't know, create a data set or something. Yeah, well, 235 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: who are you selling to? This is the part where 236 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: we get by it again. We're gonna get introduced again. 237 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: I feel an introduction coming, so I'm gonna um. So, 238 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: if you guys were running the podcast, what would you 239 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: do differently? Yeah, give us your noteste What would you do? 240 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: I guess it was scared. It would be like the 241 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: opposite of what you guys are doing, where you both 242 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: you both are sort of insisting on your point of view, 243 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: and then Rigotte and my podcast would be like do 244 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: you want to go? And then it'd be quiet, and 245 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: then the other person would say you can go first? 246 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: Maybe just be like guess would be talking the whole time. Yeah, 247 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: and you guys should try being timid. Okay, we could 248 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: restart and yeah, let's just scrap what we've done and yeah, started, 249 00:15:55,520 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: we'll start it your way? Yes, so um? Oh sorry, no, 250 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: no you go Oh wait no, Sam, Sorry those okay, sorry, 251 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: did you have anything you want to talk about today? 252 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: I really like I just prefer to hear what you 253 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: have to say. Well, I mean I have I have something, 254 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: but it's not very good. If you want to start, No, 255 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: I bet what you have is like really good, and 256 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 1: I really I've kind of feel insecure about what I know. 257 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: I just think that you had such an amazing, powerful 258 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: point of view and like I like you worked in 259 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: like tech and like and like you were like, this 260 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: is amazing electric. I gotta be honest, guys, that podcast 261 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: kind of sucked. Uh, you guys were getting along better, though. 262 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 1: I love hearing how good you guys are getting along. Yeah, 263 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: it definitely was not as good, but it was pathetic 264 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: in a way that I really like. You guys were 265 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,880 Speaker 1: just bouncing off each other, just playing off each other's 266 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: energies each other. One of the most polite podcasts I've 267 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: ever heard. It did bring up an interesting point, which 268 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 1: is it's okay when George says he works in tech, 269 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: but when I say George works in tech, it's a slur. Well, 270 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: I just thought I felt before when I was telling 271 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: my story about how I realized everything is connected and 272 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: reached the singularity mentally, I said, you know in my 273 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:22,919 Speaker 1: past that I worked in tech, and I to me, 274 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 1: that's part of my backstory that everyone is obsessed with. 275 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: All my fans constantly talked about how I used to 276 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: work in tech and you I could immediately see you 277 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: roll your eyes, which I did not expect that that's 278 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,360 Speaker 1: actually what threw me off and made me so inarticulate 279 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: when describing the realizations I came to on my walk. Well, 280 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 1: I just thought it was funny. And again, guests will 281 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: introduce you in a bit um. But I did think 282 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: it was funny to say tech, academia and entertainment. I 283 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: felt like that was such a toxic um string of 284 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 1: things to say that you to to describe your past, 285 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: and I thought it was so funny and then made 286 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: me see the we are so different and yet we 287 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: host a podcast, right, Well, not everyone can have a 288 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:11,239 Speaker 1: history where they've worked in tech, academia and entertainment. Well, 289 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: because Sam comes from more of a background of uh 290 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: like Amish. Yeah you're using an Amish microphone? Yeah yeah, yeah, 291 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 1: that's that's trust. That sounds like a name of a 292 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: sex act. Doesn't that sound like a sex act. Jeremy, 293 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: come on, sorry, I mean, now you're being reactionary. I'm sorry, 294 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Jeremy. Come on, we can push him left 295 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: and we Is it even worth it to try to 296 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: push Jeremy left? I think it's a waste of energy. 297 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: This is the debate. Well, among the two of you, 298 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,479 Speaker 1: I know, you know Jeremy is the right wing one, Like, 299 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: how do you guys navigate? Look, I've got our donors 300 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: interests in mind, and like those are just the people 301 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 1: like when they come around and they're like, do you 302 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: want to have lunch? Like I'm going to make room 303 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: for them in my schedule. That's just how it is. 304 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: And I try, like I have principles, but I mean, yeah, 305 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: the principles been to the donor's interests. So I don't 306 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: know how you don't get that. Why don't you like 307 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: you should be able? So both of you actually the 308 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: donor's interests.

I had a lot of issues 331 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: with how they handled it creatively, but I ultimately I 332 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: stand behind it, and I think, like you know, the 333 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 1: film speaks for itself. Okay, we were producers, we're producers 334 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 1: and other stuff. Yeah a questions, Well everyone hears has produced, um, 335 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: George we Well, I just wanted to share this anecdote, okay, 336 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 1: talking about talking about yeah, yeah books.

We both were at a birthday party 339 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: like maybe a year and a half a right, and 340 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 1: Sally Rooney was there. Oh yeah yeah. So here's the 341 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 1: thing with that birthday party. First of all, it was 342 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,719 Speaker 1: our last for me at least I think probably for 343 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 1: you too, like the last big party before COVID. Yes, 344 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: like I very distinctly remembered as the last big gathering 345 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: and truly like maybe the next day things started shutting 346 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,640 Speaker 1: down or maybe in the next couple of days. There 347 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:35,199 Speaker 1: were like there were like so many IT girls at 348 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 1: that party. Yeah, it was a little bit stressful. So 349 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: Sally Rouney was a huge one. Tavy Gevinson was another 350 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: huge one. Who's that Tavy Gevinson like founded Rookie magazine 351 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 1: and was also in like you know, um did the 352 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,360 Speaker 1: she did the big Britney Spears piece recently, right, Yeah, yeah, 353 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 1: she read about Brittany recently. Everybody knows this it girl 354 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: except for me, and then she's right. And then the 355 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 1: third one, which I've talked about on this podcast was 356 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: Harry Nff. So it was just eight girls wall to wall, 357 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 1: I mean only in New York? Am I right?

That's beautiful, right, 362 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: it's really good. Do you think COVID happened because so 363 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: many IT girls were at the same phase that the 364 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 1: universe kind of combusted?

It 374 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 1: is Yeah, I was telling everyone. I was like, I 375 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: saw all the girls in one room. I said, this 376 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: is dangerous. We got to get them in separate rooms 377 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: in case something happens, like there shouldn't be two of 378 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 1: them on the same plane. Ever, it's true, it's I mean, 379 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 1: it's the same thing happened in the nineties when Parker 380 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: Posey and Chloe seven became friends. That's when the Gulf 381 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 1: War ended. I wanted to keep going. I was always 382 00:24:55,200 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: a fan of the Gulf War. It was a class right, 383 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: So you get to have a war on the Gulf. 384 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 1: How fun?

Yeah, I thought 494 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 1: I think I think it's going pretty good. Yeah, I 495 00:32:56,200 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: think you know what your criteria. I think that's a 496 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: good way to describe this whole episode so far. Yeah, yeah, 497 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. I have a question g Noam 498 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: Chomsky or Nicky Blonsky. I don't know who she's the 499 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: start movie Hairspray, the movie, the movie version of hairs 500 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: the movie version of the musical version of the movie 501 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: Hairspray with John Travolta. Yeah, John Travolta plays her mom. 502 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: But don't read too much into it. It's not gay, guys, Yeah, 503 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: he's not gay. Stop being weird about something like that. 504 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 1: I just want to say, like I didn't Jeer, like 505 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 1: I know a lot of you know, you're kind of 506 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: a shock jock, uh provocateur. But like Timmy, I draw 507 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 1: the line at people saying John Travolta is gay. It's 508 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: just not right reputation like that. I just think that 509 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: when he said it just is. When he said Adele 510 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 1: does he, I was like, he's being really gay. You 511 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: said he's being really gay. I remember that we were 512 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: at watch that together and you turned to me and 513 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,399 Speaker 1: you said that's so gay, and then Hary Knaff turned 514 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 1: to you and said it is because you guys were 515 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: surrounded by it. Girls yeah, well right, so it's there 516 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: have to be. Usually when Jeremy and I are together, 517 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 1: there at least three to four eight girls around. Yeah, 518 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: we got our arms around. Yeah, but each of us 519 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: actually have our arms around two eight girls. And then 520 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 1: Jeremy goes, that's so gay, and then the two eight 521 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:38,799 Speaker 1: girls together say totally. Yeah. They just say they like yes, 522 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: me and stuff. Yeah, Daddy, dynamic, Yeah, they call you daddy. Yeah. 523 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,399 Speaker 1: It's like it's like, I'm in the first to admit 524 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,560 Speaker 1: it's very problematic. I've seen you with it. Girls on 525 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: your lap and they say, Daddy, who's gay and who's not? 526 00:34:56,840 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 1: You haven't seen that he's lying. It's this really toxic 527 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 1: thing where the girls ask you, Daddy, tell me who's gay? 528 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: And then you say, oh, John Travolta, I mean look 529 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: at the Yeah.

No. Yeah, 584 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,280 Speaker 1: I we didn't know that you guys were good friends, 585 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 1: so that actually changes a lot. I'm sorry, I would 586 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 1: never want to. Yeah, I can vouch for Sam a 587 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 1: good guy.

It's so cool. 594 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 1: And I hope that other cool, popular guys out there 595 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: know that they can stick up for the little guy. Yeah. Well, 596 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:31,399 Speaker 1: empathy is something I learned when working in tech, and um, 597 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 1: you know, it's something that never leaves you. Umtally so 598 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:43,839 Speaker 1: um we sorry, Yeah, I try cycle on the tricycle 599 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 1: on the Michael Barbaro Bridge Bridge. Yeah. No, totally good 600 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:57,840 Speaker 1: question at all, you guys. Um, you guys brought some 601 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 1: if not a topic then than something that you wanted 602 00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: to share with us. Oh yeah, is a theory that 603 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 1: flaccid penis is gay and this is Jeremy's theory. That's 604 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:16,360 Speaker 1: Jeremy's theory. Wait, I love this. Wait is this a 605 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 1: real theory? Yeah? Well, I'm sorry, this is the opposite. 606 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 1: That's what he thinks. I think flaccid penis is straight 607 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 1: and straight. Okay, just to be clear, you both agree 608 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: about it, or one of you thinks this is a 609 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:43,839 Speaker 1: big way, just basically just in case one of them 610 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 1: is like a problem that's super messed up. Yeah, like 611 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: just going to stake out one side so that one 612 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,359 Speaker 1: of us is like not okay. Well, I think maybe 613 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 1: we should just start, you know, with opening statements, so Sam, 614 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: you can choose which one of them goes first. You know, 615 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 1: this decision has been weighing on me all afternoon. I've 616 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:07,399 Speaker 1: been thinking, you know, who among them can share their 617 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: case first. You know that the timing. Uh it the 618 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: the order can affect the audiences understanding of the argument. 619 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: And so if I pick wrong, um, it could mean 620 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 1: that hard penises are gay and soft penises are straight, 621 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:33,600 Speaker 1: or vice versa. I'm gonna go with all right, all right, well, 622 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: so we all know. We all know that I mean 623 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 1: hard penises otherwise known as georgia or in academia, it's 624 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:51,439 Speaker 1: otherwise known as a boner um. And that is that's gay. 625 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 1: I'm on the side of that is you know that 626 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 1: I'm on the side of that straight, because a boner 627 00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 1: is straight, very literal, a literal interpretation. That's I think 628 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:08,240 Speaker 1: it's pretty. It's a pretty it's it's called a boner 629 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 1: or erect penis. Those are the two. No using Google 630 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: right now, it's cheating, it's called well, it's interesting. You know, um, 631 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 1: you're this whole so far, this argument is very you know, 632 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:30,320 Speaker 1: Webster Dictionary defines erect peniss so a penis. This is 633 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: actually a part of my kind of argument, and it's 634 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 1: that do you guys know the penis is the male 635 00:42:36,360 --> 00:42:40,520 Speaker 1: genital organ of higher vertebrates, carrying the duct for the 636 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: transfer of sperm during copulation. Yeah, you're right that does 637 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 1: sound more straight. Yeah, well, you're bringing reproduction into it. 638 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,320 Speaker 1: In humans and most other mammals that consists largely of 639 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 1: erectile tissue and serves also for the elimination of urine. 640 00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:01,879 Speaker 1: I don't know if that helps the elimination of urine totally. Wow, 641 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:07,879 Speaker 1: it's like you're in town, you could say, Jeremy, I'd 642 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 1: love to hear sort of your counter argument. I think 643 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 1: so that was the end of vision. That's how I'd 644 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:19,399 Speaker 1: like to like to close out with that. Okay, okay, yeah, 645 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:24,279 Speaker 1: I think Jatte's argument has has merit. However, I think 646 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 1: that if it's like flaccid, it's like that's kind of 647 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 1: just like the like straight people kind of have that 648 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 1: vibe a lot of the time because they're kind of 649 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:40,479 Speaker 1: like they're like chilling. Yeah, yeah, so you think straight 650 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 1: people are chill and gay people are like is that 651 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 1: what you're is that what you're trying to say, not 652 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: what I'm trying to say sounds I don't know about that, 653 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 1: but I was on the other side of that. I 654 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:53,239 Speaker 1: wanted to kind of read you think straight people are 655 00:43:53,320 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 1: chill and gay people are not, well, not hard, but 656 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:09,719 Speaker 1: like like excite, excite or not necessarily any kind of 657 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 1: people are excited, people are laid back on the other 658 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 1: side of that, On the other side, I actually, I 659 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 1: actually think it's like problematic to even think about it 660 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 1: in those terms. And I think that, uh, straight people 661 00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 1: and gay people can be all kinds of ways at 662 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 1: any time they want. But you're arguing that flaccid is 663 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 1: straight and direct is gay for the sake of this argument. Yeah, 664 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 1: that is what I'm saying. So basically you're this is 665 00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 1: a bit of a cop out to me, and that 666 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:47,959 Speaker 1: you're saying, you know, anyone can be whoever they want. 667 00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 1: But I am going through the motions of arguing something 668 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 1: for the sake of this debate. Yeah, I guess. Yeah. 669 00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 1: Basically I tried to like put in a whole, and 670 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:04,840 Speaker 1: then I put myself in a hole, and now I 671 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:08,799 Speaker 1: don't want to be making this argument. Huh, But here 672 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 1: I am. So you don't you thought you thought you thought, okay, 673 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 1: we're going to respond well to you saying erect is gay, 674 00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:24,759 Speaker 1: because of course erect inherently is um the people have 675 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: both more positive associations, and so you were trying to 676 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 1: pander to us by saying erect is gay. I guess 677 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:36,240 Speaker 1: I was just hoping that whatever one whoever went first, 678 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,400 Speaker 1: would be just like wrong. I thought it was an 679 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 1: unwinnable argument. Yeah, but then I kind of hoping I 680 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 1: gotta knocked it out of the park with my dictionary, 681 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 1: and that I was not expecting you shouldn't you should 682 00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 1: bring a dictionary next time. Yeah, Jeremy, I am confused. 683 00:45:56,120 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 1: I guess um in the sense that you know, yes, 684 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 1: you were throwing your friend under the bus, but you 685 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 1: also you knew you were gonna have to speak on 686 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 1: this topic. Yeah, sorry, go ahead. I'm just kind of 687 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 1: confused as to why this um would only affect and 688 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 1: not also you, right. I guess it's lack of foresight 689 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,879 Speaker 1: and just I was just kicking the can down the road, 690 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: and I was like, maybe I'll think of something smart, 691 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 1: Like it's really like the confidence. I would say, I 692 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: would go so far as to talk call it um 693 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:35,399 Speaker 1: toxic male confidence. That you thought that you really thought 694 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:39,800 Speaker 1: that without doing any research, coming completely unprepared, that that 695 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: regan would be so bad arguing that erect is straight 696 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 1: and flash it is gay, that all you would have 697 00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 1: to do is kind of be like, well, Mike drop. Yeah. Yeah, 698 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:53,279 Speaker 1: then I come in here, and I own you with 699 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:56,480 Speaker 1: my dictionary again. I want to bring up the dictionary. 700 00:46:56,680 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: Just yeah, the dictionary bit crushed and both avoid the 701 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 1: topic and you know, added something a new element. Yeah, 702 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: I just want to say, you know, it really means 703 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:12,720 Speaker 1: a lot that you came in prepared, have done your research, 704 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 1: and to be honest. At first, I was skeptical of 705 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,319 Speaker 1: the argument that direct is straight and flaccid is gay. 706 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 1: I think I like to think of myself as more 707 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:27,360 Speaker 1: of an erect than a flaccid person. But um, I'm convinced. Interesting, 708 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 1: I think I'm now I'm wondering, are you, George the 709 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:40,399 Speaker 1: erect and I'm the flaccid? Well we're both gay, right, 710 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 1: So that throws a wrench and the idea that one 711 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,319 Speaker 1: of us is one and one is the other when 712 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 1: the argument of this debate is whether one is gay 713 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 1: and one is straight both erect, huh. I guess I'm 714 00:47:56,360 --> 00:48:00,400 Speaker 1: just trying to change the game a little and make it. 715 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 1: Maybe let's give them a second chance and have them 716 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:05,239 Speaker 1: argue which one of us is erect and which one 717 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:08,000 Speaker 1: of us is flaccid. Okay, I want to give Jeremy 718 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:10,279 Speaker 1: a second chance, and in fact, Jeremy, you can go 719 00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:13,120 Speaker 1: first now and you can choose which perfect which side 720 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,680 Speaker 1: you're arguing for. So you have to choose which one 721 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 1: is salmon, which one is me? Uh huh cool cool, 722 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:25,799 Speaker 1: And I would have to say, um, let's see. Oh. 723 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 1: Now he's trying to use the dictionary. Oh, oh my god. 724 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 1: He's searching, literally googling flacid Sam Taggert hoping something comes up. Uh. 725 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 1: Oh no, he's not finding anything. Oh my god, he 726 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:54,320 Speaker 1: can't even use Google. Oh my god, email real quick, no, 727 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 1: oh god. For the listeners at home, you should know 728 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 1: that both Jeremy and Rajotte's screens are lighting up on 729 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 1: their glasses. They are frantically searching the screen. I don't 730 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 1: know what they actually they look like they're East Sports like, 731 00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 1: and I actually don't know what the end goal. I 732 00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 1: think maybe they're missing the point um, which sort of 733 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:23,320 Speaker 1: is to talk on the podcast, and they're sort of 734 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:27,319 Speaker 1: getting lost in this searching on the screen type of No. Okay, well, 735 00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:31,280 Speaker 1: so here's what happened. So I just got an email 736 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:34,880 Speaker 1: from Jeremy. No. I got an email from Jeremy, and 737 00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 1: it says, hey, are you more flaccid or erect? No? Yeah, Yeah, 738 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 1: I got an email from Jeremy that says, hey, are 739 00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 1: you more flaccid or erect? Oh no, I just like 740 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 1: it's confusing to me because we are judging this debate, 741 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:54,200 Speaker 1: so like we're not going to give you the answer. Yeah, 742 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 1: that's good. That No, totally, that makes sense. Sam, don't 743 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:04,040 Speaker 1: check your email, by the way. I oh no, did 744 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,800 Speaker 1: you get one to Sam? I got one too. I 745 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 1: mean his polite start. Yeah, well, should we both reply 746 00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 1: and then see what what what comes out of that? Um? Sure, okay, 747 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:24,359 Speaker 1: Oh wait, I just got an email from that. Yeah, 748 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:27,799 Speaker 1: I got that's like a bibliography. So Jatte to sent 749 00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,440 Speaker 1: us a diagram, a medical diagram of a flacc of 750 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:33,239 Speaker 1: penis and a direct penis. It looks like Rigatte at 751 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 1: least was honest enough to send it to all three 752 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:39,640 Speaker 1: of the rest of us. Yeah, it was, so, I 753 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:41,680 Speaker 1: do want to say, so far in this part of 754 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:43,920 Speaker 1: the debate, I still think Rigatte is winning because he 755 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: wasn't trying to secretive. Yeah, I mean it was more 756 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:50,799 Speaker 1: like hard facts. It's like hard facts. He's coming at 757 00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 1: it from a science perspective, and he believed science. No, No, 758 00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:58,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to reply to Jeremy, Right, I replied, already 759 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:10,000 Speaker 1: this are you're refreshing the page over to me? All right, 760 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:14,439 Speaker 1: So I think that George is more flaccid, and since 761 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:19,000 Speaker 1: Sam is more the erect, more of the boner. Yeah, interesting, 762 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:25,480 Speaker 1: more of the boner. Kind of want to that is 763 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,840 Speaker 1: there any reasoning behind it or well, I have some 764 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 1: evidence that maybe it's not like I can't use but 765 00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 1: I have a I have a source that did tell 766 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:40,840 Speaker 1: me that George flat is flaccid, and and did do 767 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,960 Speaker 1: you have a source that told you Sam is erect? No? 768 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:48,839 Speaker 1: So you're just sort of making up information because you're 769 00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:53,919 Speaker 1: not even getting sources for all of it. I think 770 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:58,919 Speaker 1: I read it on Vulture. Well, so, I mean, god, 771 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:01,040 Speaker 1: I try to get that about the internet. I did 772 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 1: give an interview with Vulture where I said I was flaccid. Yeah. Um, 773 00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 1: you know, I was trying to do this kind of 774 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:12,279 Speaker 1: very high minded bit, but it actually came across. You know, 775 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:14,799 Speaker 1: when you read it, you don't get my tone. I'm 776 00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:19,359 Speaker 1: a very matter of factly saying I am flaccid. Yeah. Yeah, 777 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to imagine like how the tone could well. 778 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:26,840 Speaker 1: I was doing a little dance that I was like 779 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:33,319 Speaker 1: I'm flaccid. But it didn't. It was just it does help. Yeah. Yeah, 780 00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 1: because when you said that in the interview, like I 781 00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:41,040 Speaker 1: was sort of imagining the Ellen cover and it's like, Yep, 782 00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:45,840 Speaker 1: I'm flaccid. I thought it was like like sort of 783 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:50,359 Speaker 1: a big deal. Right when I was on the cover 784 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:52,200 Speaker 1: of it was the only time Vulture ever had a 785 00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:56,040 Speaker 1: physical issue. They actually sent a magazine to everyone in 786 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 1: the country and it was Vulture magazine and it was 787 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: photo me on the cover and it said Yep, I'm flacid. 788 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:04,840 Speaker 1: And then in the little sidebar it was like plus 789 00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:10,799 Speaker 1: Rachel Senate Rising you know that said I did read 790 00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:14,200 Speaker 1: a pretty convincing piece by Seth Simons after that that 791 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:18,479 Speaker 1: like was more of an in depth investigation and whether 792 00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 1: you're flaccid. There's some like pretty interesting points of the 793 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:26,399 Speaker 1: idea that George's heart not flacid. Well, Seth, Yeah, Seth 794 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:31,840 Speaker 1: has always said he thinks I'm hard. Yeah, and he 795 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:33,719 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, he did do the work. He 796 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:36,360 Speaker 1: interviewed a lot of people, Um, he met polar like 797 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:40,800 Speaker 1: had a lot to say about right. I was like, 798 00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:42,760 Speaker 1: I don't know why she would know. Yeah, that seemed 799 00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 1: weird to me because I've never met her, not any 800 00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:55,560 Speaker 1: rebuttal I I have a lot to say. I think 801 00:53:55,640 --> 00:54:05,239 Speaker 1: there's merit to Jeremy's uh uh Jeremy's viewpoint. But um, 802 00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 1: I think both of you guys have a little bulge. 803 00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:16,279 Speaker 1: H that's what I think. So placid, but well, a 804 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 1: little a little bulge, like a little we're both like 805 00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:27,920 Speaker 1: half Yeah, you think we're both half erect that and 806 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 1: that's you guys. I think we can all agree that 807 00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:36,319 Speaker 1: you guys come together at the bulge, at a little 808 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:41,319 Speaker 1: half erection. That's the that's where you guys come together. Man, 809 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,480 Speaker 1: I thought it would be it would be nice to 810 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:48,000 Speaker 1: see you fail. And now and now it's uncomfortable. He 811 00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:51,840 Speaker 1: still don't get you still have never seen we fail? 812 00:54:57,719 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 1: Still fail? See if we fail? Wow, Sam, how how 813 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:09,240 Speaker 1: would you say? This is? Like? What are your thoughts? 814 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:13,480 Speaker 1: I am so curious as to what the critical and 815 00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:18,360 Speaker 1: audience reception of this particular episode will be. I was 816 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:21,879 Speaker 1: always thinking about the numbers. I'm a numbers guy. Data. 817 00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 1: That's pretty, that's pretty. That's past you. No, no, no, 818 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,360 Speaker 1: I am still this is this is where we this 819 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:38,960 Speaker 1: is where we differ because I'm always just crunching the 820 00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:44,680 Speaker 1: numbers and trying to figure out who's bon past that section. 821 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,400 Speaker 1: So Jeremy, you're you want to move past the Boner 822 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 1: Versus classes, and I do think we were. You know, 823 00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: I'm almost team I hate to say it, but I'm 824 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 1: almost team Jeremy on this one. I felt as though 825 00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:59,799 Speaker 1: we had sort of moved on. It was and here 826 00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:02,000 Speaker 1: we again. There was sort of a natural break, and 827 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:05,359 Speaker 1: I was so ready to go back into Boner Versus. 828 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 1: Is like, the episode was going well until that point 829 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 1: and then it went that. It went south, so it 830 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:18,440 Speaker 1: was erect and then it got flaccid. Would say, we 831 00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:21,920 Speaker 1: go So it's kind of I disagree with that because 832 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:28,040 Speaker 1: that implies the flaccid is bad. Well, is it or not? 833 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 1: I don't think it is. You're kind of like you 834 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:36,120 Speaker 1: just think FLASCT interact are equally good. Yeah, they're just different. 835 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:40,920 Speaker 1: I think they're for different times. Yeah. No, if you 836 00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 1: were erect all the time, it would be horrible, and 837 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:47,520 Speaker 1: if you were flaccid all the time, it would be horrible. Okay, 838 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 1: it might be nice. We haven't tried either of those options. 839 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:56,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm currently sometimes sometimes flast and I'm certainly 840 00:56:56,120 --> 00:57:02,319 Speaker 1: not like over the Moon happy yea, but the other 841 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:16,440 Speaker 1: that's that's what I think. Damn. Um, Well, do we 842 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 1: think we got to the bottom? I don't know. I mean, 843 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:27,800 Speaker 1: so you're Sam your team Jeremy. Uh in the sense 844 00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:32,040 Speaker 1: that I felt like the we had moved on, yes, 845 00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 1: well no, now we've moved on from debating whether we've 846 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 1: moved on, Well, I don't believe that, because the debate 847 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 1: rages on. Should we have opening arguments? So Sam and 848 00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:46,120 Speaker 1: I are going to now debate on whether we've moved 849 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 1: on from the from the bona versus flat. Wait? Wait, 850 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,080 Speaker 1: I want to go back. I want George. Someone hasn't 851 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:58,440 Speaker 1: moved on, George. I want to go back a little, George. 852 00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 1: How do you feel a out everything going on right now? Listen? 853 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:04,600 Speaker 1: If you'd asked me before this what's good and what's bad? 854 00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:07,320 Speaker 1: I would have said erect is good, flacid is bad. 855 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:14,400 Speaker 1: But the combination of Rigattes scientific inquiry, Jeremy's more social 856 00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:19,440 Speaker 1: sciences survey based work, and then both of them together 857 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:25,400 Speaker 1: doing the um uh, I think they really brought together 858 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:31,080 Speaker 1: the three pillars, which is tech, academia, and entertainment and 859 00:58:31,680 --> 00:58:34,640 Speaker 1: all of that together has made me completely rethink from 860 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 1: the bottom up my entire thoughts on erect versus flacid 861 00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:43,880 Speaker 1: to the point where at this point I'm thinking like, 862 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:48,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna try doing activities with the opposite thing that 863 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,920 Speaker 1: I normally do. So I'll try sex with a flacid 864 00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:54,400 Speaker 1: penis and then running errands with a fully erect one 865 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,960 Speaker 1: to see if maybe switching things up will rewire my 866 00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 1: brain in a certain way. What do you think? I mean, 867 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:04,360 Speaker 1: I think that's a really commendable and I say good 868 00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:06,200 Speaker 1: luck on that journey. I can't wait for you to 869 00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:09,000 Speaker 1: report back. Next time I take one of my walks, 870 00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 1: I will be fully erect and thinking about the similarities 871 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:18,320 Speaker 1: between tech and academia. I mean, I mean having sex 872 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 1: is an errand oh ship classic surrounded by all Right, 873 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:33,040 Speaker 1: I guess we have to do this again. The girls 874 00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:41,800 Speaker 1: are like Daddy, who's gay? Oh my god? Um? Should 875 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:44,640 Speaker 1: we end this episode? Yeah? Yeah, we have to, in fact, 876 00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 1: because our next guest is um waiting to come on. Um. Well, guys, 877 00:59:51,520 --> 00:59:55,880 Speaker 1: this has been an experienced UM. I think you have 878 00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 1: pushed the limits of what this podcast can be, and 879 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:03,640 Speaker 1: to that, I say hats off to you. Agreed push 880 01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:06,880 Speaker 1: push the limits, but also made it even more limited. 881 01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:12,800 Speaker 1: In some ways. Yeah, thank you so much. Yeah, I 882 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:17,040 Speaker 1: I feel like I don't know who I am anymore, 883 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 1: but I think that can be powerful. But I also 884 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:25,200 Speaker 1: have never felt more secure in my identity exactly. That's awesome, awesome. 885 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:28,000 Speaker 1: Our final segment is called shout Out. I forgot we 886 01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:32,440 Speaker 1: had a final segment. This is something tells me it 887 01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:36,200 Speaker 1: might take a very long time. In this segment, this 888 01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 1: is back before our podcast became all about being conceptual 889 01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:42,919 Speaker 1: and it was simply about analyzing straight culture. We thought 890 01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 1: the shout out, the radio shout out, think of a 891 01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:47,800 Speaker 1: TRL shout out, think of a Z one shoutout, was 892 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:49,920 Speaker 1: one of the pillars of straight culture. So we thought 893 01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:52,920 Speaker 1: we would end each episode with a shout out, UM 894 01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:56,560 Speaker 1: to your boys back home, Sam, do you have one? Uh? 895 01:00:56,760 --> 01:01:02,560 Speaker 1: Yeah I do? UM whenever, Okay, what's up, listeners. Um, 896 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:04,280 Speaker 1: I just want to give a huge shout out to 897 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:09,160 Speaker 1: the RuPaul's Drag Race Reunion episode. That was the longest 898 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 1: episode of television I have ever watched. It was so 899 01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:16,520 Speaker 1: so boring and undynamic, and I couldn't care less. It 900 01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 1: was a full two hours of my life wasted. I 901 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:20,800 Speaker 1: think it was maybe only an hour and a half 902 01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 1: except that the thing that I recorded it on kept 903 01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:26,760 Speaker 1: messing up, so I had to keep rewinding and fast forwarding, 904 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:29,760 Speaker 1: and so it took a cool two hours. I did 905 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 1: not finish it because I had to record this podcast today, 906 01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:38,280 Speaker 1: and in many ways that saved me. So whatever happened 907 01:01:38,280 --> 01:01:40,240 Speaker 1: in the last ten minutes of RuPaul's Drag Race reunion, 908 01:01:40,560 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I ben it was boring. Who god, 909 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 1: what a what a truly one eight in terms of 910 01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:51,720 Speaker 1: tone and topics. Yeah, to go from fully conceptual to 911 01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:55,560 Speaker 1: talking about RuPaul's Drag Race. And can I say, I 912 01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:59,480 Speaker 1: you know, I could feel us hiding our homosexuality while 913 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 1: we had these two guys on here, and so I said, 914 01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:06,040 Speaker 1: you know what, we are just gay guys still, And 915 01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:11,280 Speaker 1: just because we have these hilarious comedians on here doesn't 916 01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 1: mean we aren't still gay guys that listen to Lady 917 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:20,480 Speaker 1: Gaga and watch fucking drag Race. So get over it. 918 01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:23,520 Speaker 1: We have a different favor of reference than you. That's fine. 919 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:28,880 Speaker 1: That wow, So you actually are doing activism. This is activism.
