0:00:16.960 --> 0:00:20.640
<v Speaker 2>I Am all in with Scott Patterson, an iHeartRadio podcast.

0:00:21.079 --> 0:00:25.280
<v Speaker 3>Hey guys, an extra special pop culture minisode for you. Today,

0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:30.800
<v Speaker 3>we've got Teddy Mellencamp, daughter of John Mellencamp. We heard

0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:33.480
<v Speaker 3>her dad's reference a few weeks ago in season six,

0:00:33.600 --> 0:00:37.599
<v Speaker 3>episode thirteen Friday Nights all Right for Fighting, when Luke

0:00:37.640 --> 0:00:39.680
<v Speaker 3>and Laurel I awkwardly bump into each.

0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:40.360
<v Speaker 4>Other in the morning.

0:00:41.200 --> 0:00:43.519
<v Speaker 3>So we have to talk to her about it. See

0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:46.720
<v Speaker 3>if she knows of this mention about her dad. Let's

0:00:46.720 --> 0:00:47.199
<v Speaker 3>get her on.

0:00:49.320 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 4>Hi guys, Hey Teddy, how you doing?

0:00:51.640 --> 0:00:51.960
<v Speaker 1>Welcome?

0:00:52.200 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 5>Hi Teddy, Hi, so good to see everybody.

0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.560
<v Speaker 6>Welcome to our mandness. Oh look how professional?

0:00:59.640 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Yo?

0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:00.320
<v Speaker 6>Get that?

0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:01.840
<v Speaker 4>I have one of those and it's too bright. I

0:01:01.840 --> 0:01:03.320
<v Speaker 4>can't have it in my office. I got to figure

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:04.240
<v Speaker 4>out a way to use mine.

0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:08.199
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's the chaos this morning with four kids

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.080
<v Speaker 2>needing to be out the door at nine ten. But

0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:12.560
<v Speaker 2>I was like, I love Gilmore Girls so much.

0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:16.480
<v Speaker 5>I have a couple of minutes to zip in.

0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:19.800
<v Speaker 4>Oh, thank you so much, thank you. When did you

0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 4>first discover Gilmore Girls?

0:01:22.319 --> 0:01:29.000
<v Speaker 2>I discovered Gilmore Girls during the pandemic. My daughter had actually,

0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.880
<v Speaker 2>right before the pandemic, she had amputated the tip of

0:01:33.920 --> 0:01:37.760
<v Speaker 2>her finger, which sounds like a very like traumatic story.

0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:41.240
<v Speaker 2>But there was very few shows that we could watch

0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:46.319
<v Speaker 2>together and really, you know, like all it didn't seem

0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.400
<v Speaker 2>too mature for her, but it also was mature enough

0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:52.840
<v Speaker 2>that it opened up so many good conversations for us,

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:58.080
<v Speaker 2>and so like, I'm not kidding, we I mean, we

0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:01.320
<v Speaker 2>couldn't have watched more episodes are healing?

0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:05.400
<v Speaker 4>How old was she at the time?

0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:06.520
<v Speaker 5>She was ten?

0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:09.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh gosh, yeah, did.

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:12.040
<v Speaker 6>You get to the episode where your dad is mentioned?

0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:15.600
<v Speaker 2>I did, But now once you guys texted me, I

0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:18.800
<v Speaker 2>was like, I remember being excited when I heard it,

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:22.800
<v Speaker 2>but now you guys have to refresh my memory.

0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:25.320
<v Speaker 7>We will, but I just think that would be so

0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:28.040
<v Speaker 7>so when they mentioned, you know, Mark Ballast from Dancing

0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:31.080
<v Speaker 7>with the Stars. Yes, so there's a moment where his

0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 7>parents are mentioned, same exact thing, and we like kind

0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:37.239
<v Speaker 7>of lost our minds and immediately called him and got

0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:39.960
<v Speaker 7>him on, Like, I wonder what would be more weird

0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:43.919
<v Speaker 7>of you being mentioned in pop culture or your parents,

0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:44.799
<v Speaker 7>because that's.

0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:47.480
<v Speaker 6>Sort of more iconic. You're like, my dad just got

0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:48.280
<v Speaker 6>a shout out.

0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:48.919
<v Speaker 8>Well.

0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:51.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm pretty sure I'll never get a shout

0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:54.640
<v Speaker 2>out on a show like Gilmour Girls, so they'll be

0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:58.880
<v Speaker 2>like and then that really crazy housewife that.

0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:03.519
<v Speaker 5>Caused a lot of problems. But no, it's really cool.

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.560
<v Speaker 2>And it's also like, you know, I think that's a

0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:10.560
<v Speaker 2>beautiful thing about music, as it will bring you back

0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:13.120
<v Speaker 2>to a memory no matter where you are in your life.

0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:16.160
<v Speaker 2>Like I can barely remember anything I learned in school,

0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 2>but I can remember the words to like ninety percent

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:23.359
<v Speaker 2>of the songs that I learned in grade school and

0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:26.600
<v Speaker 2>high school, you know, throughout my life. So it's like

0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:29.480
<v Speaker 2>you just retain those that information in those.

0:03:29.320 --> 0:03:30.480
<v Speaker 1>Liar, you sure do?

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:31.079
<v Speaker 8>You sure do.

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:36.640
<v Speaker 4>The other day, I was watching Caream reunion videos Eric

0:03:36.640 --> 0:03:40.200
<v Speaker 4>Clapton and Ginger Baker in two thousand and five they

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:44.040
<v Speaker 4>went Royal Albert Hall and did played all those great songs,

0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:46.280
<v Speaker 4>and I was just like flooded with memoris. It was

0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:49.640
<v Speaker 4>just bizarre. It's all of this old waves of emotion

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:52.360
<v Speaker 4>coming just from that music. It's amazing how it triggers it,

0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:52.680
<v Speaker 4>isn't it.

0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:55.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, you can you find that emotion immediately,

0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:57.920
<v Speaker 2>how you felt in that moment when you first heard it,

0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:01.240
<v Speaker 2>or like that relationship you were in during it, or

0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, like every time I even hear like Casey

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:07.960
<v Speaker 2>and Jojo, I'm like, oh, that was my song with

0:04:08.000 --> 0:04:10.240
<v Speaker 2>my boyfriend in the tenth grade. If I would have

0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:12.119
<v Speaker 2>actually listened to what those words.

0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:13.840
<v Speaker 5>Meant or said, it's so inappropriate.

0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:17.160
<v Speaker 7>It's so funny you say that because we'll read you

0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:19.560
<v Speaker 7>the line about your dad, but it refers to hurt

0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 7>so good. But when we immediately, when we're talking about it,

0:04:23.160 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 7>you literally all you have to say is little ditty,

0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 7>and all of us knew exactly what we were talking about,

0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:31.160
<v Speaker 7>Like Scott was immediately laughing, and we're all like, oh

0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:34.480
<v Speaker 7>my god, like two words from your dad's song, and

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 7>every single one of us knew exactly what we were

0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:37.719
<v Speaker 7>talking about.

0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.159
<v Speaker 5>And it's pretty cool. There's a couple of those like

0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:50.440
<v Speaker 5>it little Ditty, Chili Dog. Yeah, Yeah, it's so good.

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:53.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I mean, the most Banana's part is that

0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:56.279
<v Speaker 2>after you hear something like little Ditty or any of that,

0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:59.240
<v Speaker 2>is then you go and you watch the music video

0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:01.159
<v Speaker 2>and I watch sit with my kids because at this

0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:05.200
<v Speaker 2>point I realized they've never seen it, and it's my

0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 2>mom and dad, Like my mom and dad are.

0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:13.120
<v Speaker 9>Jack and Diane so crazy?

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:15.680
<v Speaker 4>I want to depart too much from what we're doing here.

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:19.360
<v Speaker 4>Did you go on tour with him back in the day.

0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:24.160
<v Speaker 2>I did, but I was so young that, like I bear,

0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:27.520
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't like I knew, you know.

0:05:27.560 --> 0:05:28.920
<v Speaker 5>And also I didn't grow up in La.

0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:31.720
<v Speaker 2>I wasn't an La kid, so it wasn't like there

0:05:31.800 --> 0:05:35.200
<v Speaker 2>was like this element of fame and paparazzi's chasing you down.

0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:38.400
<v Speaker 2>Like I just thought, like the same way that like

0:05:38.480 --> 0:05:41.200
<v Speaker 2>my friend's dad was an accountant and went to his

0:05:41.320 --> 0:05:44.719
<v Speaker 2>office every day, this was my dad's office.

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:45.240
<v Speaker 5>I mean.

0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:49.080
<v Speaker 2>The only time where it really like hit me in

0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:53.640
<v Speaker 2>a different kind of way was you know, still to

0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:57.560
<v Speaker 2>this day, when I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus comes

0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:00.719
<v Speaker 2>on and I see my like seven year old self

0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:03.839
<v Speaker 2>like trying to shake the tambourine in the video, and

0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:06.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, how do I I can remember all the

0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:09.600
<v Speaker 2>songs to everything, but I don't remember that moment. I

0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:12.279
<v Speaker 2>don't remember feeling like I was filming a music video.

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:13.760
<v Speaker 5>I thought that was just our life.

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:19.479
<v Speaker 4>And did your dad have a recording studio on the property?

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:21.920
<v Speaker 4>Is that where they recorded the songs, so they go

0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:23.440
<v Speaker 4>to LA or New York and record.

0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:25.719
<v Speaker 2>No, he never went to LA in New York. No,

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:27.359
<v Speaker 2>I mean he was born in a small town.

0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:34.880
<v Speaker 5>He still lives in that same small town, no he.

0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:38.920
<v Speaker 6>I mean you have to also.

0:06:38.720 --> 0:06:41.840
<v Speaker 2>Remember when I was born, was before his birth, Like

0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:45.400
<v Speaker 2>his first hit was nineteen eighty one, which is the

0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:47.920
<v Speaker 2>year I was born. So I mean we could say

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:51.880
<v Speaker 2>that I was his you know, mus not just kidding.

0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:56.359
<v Speaker 2>The differences and where you know, we lived, what like

0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:59.800
<v Speaker 2>how our life progressed in the eighties was huge. But

0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:03.880
<v Speaker 2>he always and still does has the same recording studio

0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 2>which is also his office, which is it's called like

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:11.080
<v Speaker 2>a Belmont, which is in like this near Seymour, Indiana.

0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:14.880
<v Speaker 2>So it's like forty minutes from the house. And I

0:07:14.920 --> 0:07:17.960
<v Speaker 2>mean I think it still looks exactly the same as

0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:20.040
<v Speaker 2>the way it did back then.

0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:22.920
<v Speaker 9>I mean, tell me once, like that you were when

0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:26.080
<v Speaker 9>you were born, you were in like a small house

0:07:26.360 --> 0:07:28.920
<v Speaker 9>in the town or like kind of an average house,

0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:31.240
<v Speaker 9>and then suddenly you.

0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:33.040
<v Speaker 6>Lived in the biggest house in town.

0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, Like it was all my pictures from you know,

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 2>being a little kid.

0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:41.360
<v Speaker 5>It like a baby.

0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:44.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, we I still drive by this house to

0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 2>get to my dad's house, and it is like you barely.

0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:50.440
<v Speaker 5>Even can see it. It's off in the corner, like

0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:51.600
<v Speaker 5>kind of in the woods.

0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:55.440
<v Speaker 2>Like I all I really remember about that house is

0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:58.200
<v Speaker 2>that there was to get down to it, you had

0:07:58.240 --> 0:08:01.600
<v Speaker 2>to go down a really steep drive and then like

0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:05.160
<v Speaker 2>there was a piano in the middle, and then there

0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:07.560
<v Speaker 2>was like steep stairs and that was like the basement,

0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:11.920
<v Speaker 2>like just it. That's really my only memory and then

0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden all my other like childhood photos.

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:17.800
<v Speaker 5>We live in a house that like will never be

0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:18.920
<v Speaker 5>able to be sold.

0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:23.520
<v Speaker 2>In Bloomington, Indiana because a is going to buy it.

0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:27.600
<v Speaker 2>Were their little pink houses, but we painted the pink

0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:29.600
<v Speaker 2>house in that music video.

0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:32.200
<v Speaker 5>We went and painted the pink houses. But that's Seymour

0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:35.480
<v Speaker 5>where my dad grew up, which is you know Seymour

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:39.079
<v Speaker 5>as of ours. That so Bloomington is like where IU is.

0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:42.760
<v Speaker 2>So people kind of know Bloomington now because that that

0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:46.280
<v Speaker 2>college is so in lack of a better word, like

0:08:46.400 --> 0:08:49.559
<v Speaker 2>everybody knows that college because of sports and fun and

0:08:49.600 --> 0:08:51.480
<v Speaker 2>like people love going to school there.

0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:54.920
<v Speaker 5>Actually, one of my producers on Two Teas.

0:08:54.720 --> 0:08:59.280
<v Speaker 2>And Indiana and so and we all know that, but

0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:03.679
<v Speaker 2>Seymour is about forty five minutes outside of Bloomington, And

0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:07.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean that is the epitio. Like the biggest shopping

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:11.480
<v Speaker 2>center is like a J. C. Penney and like it

0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:12.560
<v Speaker 2>is small.

0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:14.800
<v Speaker 4>Wow.

0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:18.360
<v Speaker 7>I was just about to say, you think like it's

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:21.199
<v Speaker 7>random that you're from Indiana, But in our small group

0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:23.720
<v Speaker 7>of people that all work together, you're from Indiana. Our

0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:27.160
<v Speaker 7>producer Kendall and Ben Higgins from the Bachelor.

0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:31.720
<v Speaker 6>Is also from Indiana. So Indiana represents.

0:09:31.440 --> 0:09:35.840
<v Speaker 8>Indiana represents Wait will you read to the line, Yeah,

0:09:36.040 --> 0:09:39.520
<v Speaker 8>read the line it's so Laura I says it hurts

0:09:39.520 --> 0:09:42.280
<v Speaker 8>so good as mister Mellencamp said, is it bleeding?

0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:44.960
<v Speaker 6>Oh yeah, what happened right before? Somebody?

0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:47.760
<v Speaker 10>Right before they Luke and Laurel I just bump into.

0:09:47.559 --> 0:09:50.880
<v Speaker 1>Each other's right acting from Yeah.

0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:56.040
<v Speaker 5>I mean because that line, taking out of context, souths.

0:09:56.040 --> 0:10:00.600
<v Speaker 1>That sounds like it's not really family friendly.

0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:03.160
<v Speaker 5>But I I'll just talk about that being a family

0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:04.040
<v Speaker 5>friendly show.

0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.640
<v Speaker 10>Wait, Teddy, I have a question though. So we were

0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:23.120
<v Speaker 10>watching this episode the scene that Rory says that her

0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:24.760
<v Speaker 10>dad is hot, like, soay was like, oh, I have

0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:28.040
<v Speaker 10>a hot Yeah. If someone says to you like, oh

0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:29.559
<v Speaker 10>my god, like your dad's so hot, or I have

0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:31.240
<v Speaker 10>a crush on your dad. Does it make you cringe?

0:10:31.280 --> 0:10:32.840
<v Speaker 6>Or are you like, oh do it all the time?

0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:34.199
<v Speaker 6>To Teddy, she doesn't.

0:10:34.640 --> 0:10:37.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, you have to also remember my dad's dated a

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:40.600
<v Speaker 2>lot of my friends at this point, so like I

0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:43.600
<v Speaker 2>have gotten pretty calloused when it comes to that.

0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:51.760
<v Speaker 5>But I think, I mean, I don't know, Like just.

0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:54.280
<v Speaker 2>You have to understand my dad is the kind of

0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:57.000
<v Speaker 2>guy that it's like he's always like, you know, you

0:10:57.080 --> 0:10:59.080
<v Speaker 2>kind of think of him and he's like reserved, pulled

0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:01.679
<v Speaker 2>back and you know, like mister cool guy. But like

0:11:01.880 --> 0:11:04.560
<v Speaker 2>when the grandkids are there for the holidays, like he's

0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:06.640
<v Speaker 2>the one that's like gonna come in his like dorky

0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:09.360
<v Speaker 2>tidy whities and like jump in the pool with his

0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:14.559
<v Speaker 2>socks on, and like he's just always as much as

0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:18.400
<v Speaker 2>he is reserved in an introvert, he's always an entertainer,

0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 2>whether it's your family or whatever. Like he knows how

0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:26.360
<v Speaker 2>to bring the excitement and make you feel special, whether

0:11:26.480 --> 0:11:29.360
<v Speaker 2>it's his music or his paintings, or his relationship with

0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:32.880
<v Speaker 2>his grandkids or texting me all in caps when I

0:11:32.880 --> 0:11:35.280
<v Speaker 2>tell him that's yelling and it hurts.

0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:39.520
<v Speaker 7>I told I love when I text Teddy pe Pauw's

0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:42.400
<v Speaker 7>looking good and she just sends the barf emojis. Like

0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:49.760
<v Speaker 7>I told the story how people like on a breakfast

0:11:49.800 --> 0:11:53.720
<v Speaker 7>morning near around Christmas is like like all dress like

0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:56.640
<v Speaker 7>he's got his like cool vibe. He just always has

0:11:56.679 --> 0:11:59.800
<v Speaker 7>that cool I'm John Mellencamp, I'm a rock star.

0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:04.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, when you only wear three outfits, it's like pretty easy,

0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:05.920
<v Speaker 2>Like he really.

0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:08.600
<v Speaker 5>Just And now I realized it. I'm like, have I

0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:10.679
<v Speaker 5>married my husband? Like my husband?

0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:14.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, you wear the same thing all of the time,

0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:16.720
<v Speaker 2>and yet you act I should be surprised.

0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:19.080
<v Speaker 5>Do you do that as well?

0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:22.960
<v Speaker 7>Now I have a question before you go, how does

0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 7>your dad feel that you often refer to him and

0:12:25.840 --> 0:12:28.320
<v Speaker 7>I think call him the koogs.

0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:31.040
<v Speaker 2>I think I'm probably one of the only people that

0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:35.079
<v Speaker 2>could get away with it. And I didn't even think

0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:39.160
<v Speaker 2>of it really myself. But when I started in California.

0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:41.319
<v Speaker 2>When I first came to California, my parents were like, listen,

0:12:41.360 --> 0:12:42.920
<v Speaker 2>if you want to not go to college and go

0:12:42.960 --> 0:12:45.680
<v Speaker 2>to California at seventeen, you're on your own, babe, Like,

0:12:45.720 --> 0:12:47.480
<v Speaker 2>we'll help you get your car out there. But then

0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:49.880
<v Speaker 2>like figure it out. So I worked in the mailroom

0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:55.320
<v Speaker 2>at CIA, and everybody, you know, everybody are like these

0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:56.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, they graduate from Harvard.

0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 5>They're just you know, like super smart.

0:12:58.960 --> 0:13:00.960
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like the seventeen year old kid, like just

0:13:01.000 --> 0:13:03.800
<v Speaker 2>trying to like hustle around and figure it out, shucking

0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:07.319
<v Speaker 2>mail and you know, doing the ice cream cart. And

0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:11.960
<v Speaker 2>everybody started coining me as because I have very similar man,

0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:15.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't have the most you know, that dainty flower

0:13:15.120 --> 0:13:17.199
<v Speaker 2>of a walk, those types of things.

0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:20.520
<v Speaker 5>So everybody would always be like, You're like little cogs,

0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:23.199
<v Speaker 5>little caugs, little coogs.

0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:26.760
<v Speaker 2>So then I started calling him the Coogs. And like

0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:29.720
<v Speaker 2>for his whatever his last I'm gonna probably stay wrong,

0:13:29.840 --> 0:13:31.840
<v Speaker 2>was it sixty to seventieth.

0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:33.320
<v Speaker 5>Whatever his last big birthday was.

0:13:34.120 --> 0:13:37.240
<v Speaker 2>I just wrote everywhere it was Koogs, like happy birthday

0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:37.880
<v Speaker 2>to the Coogs.

0:13:37.920 --> 0:13:38.520
<v Speaker 5>And he walked in.

0:13:38.600 --> 0:13:44.120
<v Speaker 11>He was like, goddamn it, teddy Teddy Joe not Alick

0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:50.400
<v Speaker 11>wouldn't call him that, but.

0:13:50.520 --> 0:13:54.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, Gilmore Girls has changed so many lives for so

0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:57.800
<v Speaker 2>many people, And the same way that a little ditty

0:13:57.840 --> 0:14:01.120
<v Speaker 2>brings people together to a memory is your show. And

0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:04.960
<v Speaker 2>I hope that you feel so incredible and knowing that

0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:08.320
<v Speaker 2>because I know, even for him, sometimes talking about the

0:14:08.360 --> 0:14:12.240
<v Speaker 2>past or talking about things in your life can feel like, oh,

0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:14.280
<v Speaker 2>like I hate watching myself or I hate doing this,

0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:17.560
<v Speaker 2>or I you know, but you've changed so many of

0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:18.079
<v Speaker 2>our lives.

0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:24.240
<v Speaker 1>You've just described the existential situation I find myself in

0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:28.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the times when I'm like, right now,

0:14:28.880 --> 0:14:34.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, god, man, John Cougar, that's so fanboying over that.

0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:37.520
<v Speaker 4>And then you know, I'll do a comic con or something,

0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:40.880
<v Speaker 4>and I realized, wait a minute, I kind I don't.

0:14:40.920 --> 0:14:42.720
<v Speaker 4>I wouldn't say I'm on their level, but I kind

0:14:42.720 --> 0:14:48.280
<v Speaker 4>of achieved similar. You know that the brand that the

0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:50.080
<v Speaker 4>Gilmour Girls is out there and the world has been

0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:52.160
<v Speaker 4>out there for twenty three years, and it's affecting people

0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:54.040
<v Speaker 4>in a very deep emotional level the same way a

0:14:54.080 --> 0:14:58.000
<v Speaker 4>hit album could, right and and helping people, and it's

0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:00.880
<v Speaker 4>and they associate that with me and it's not me.

0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:05.200
<v Speaker 4>I'm getting all this credit for it, and it feels wonderful,

0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:08.040
<v Speaker 4>but it's like, I don't know that I deserve it

0:15:08.080 --> 0:15:10.440
<v Speaker 4>as much as like your dad, No, but you do

0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:13.760
<v Speaker 4>put together a band because I didn't produce the show

0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:15.280
<v Speaker 4>and I didn't write the show. I'm just in a

0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:16.800
<v Speaker 4>sort of interpretive art, so I kind.

0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:20.040
<v Speaker 5>Of put it apart. And we always want to lie

0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:21.120
<v Speaker 5>to choose.

0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 2>You, And I wanted you to get mad when she

0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:27.520
<v Speaker 2>asked for coffee and pretend that it bugged you.

0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:29.480
<v Speaker 5>You loved every second of it, Like.

0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:33.280
<v Speaker 2>These are the things like we and the fact that

0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:35.880
<v Speaker 2>I watched it in twenty twenty, like that's the first

0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:38.560
<v Speaker 2>time I've ever seen it, and you change. My daughter's

0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:41.120
<v Speaker 2>like we still talk about it, like we'll watch new

0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:43.240
<v Speaker 2>shows and say it'll be like I liked it, mom,

0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:46.120
<v Speaker 2>but not as not like Gilmore girls, you know, like.

0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Is it is.

0:15:48.240 --> 0:15:50.840
<v Speaker 7>It's the thing about the show that it just has

0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:53.200
<v Speaker 7>life after life after life.

0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:58.000

<v Speaker 4>the time. These children know the characters. They the theme

0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.960
<v Speaker 4>song makes them stop whatever they're doing and just stare. Oh,
