1
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: Well, I invited you. Hear Gonta made myself perfectly clear.

2
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:18,799
Speaker 2: But you're a guest to my home.

3
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: You gotta come to me empty and I said, no guests, you're.

4
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 2: O presences presence en. I already had too much stuff,

5
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 2: So how did you dare to surbey me?

6
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 3: Welcome to I said, no gifts. I'm Richard Winne.

7
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 2: Girl.

8
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 3: It's raining, you're hearing the rain. This is actually the

9
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 3: second time we've started the episode due to whatever the

10
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 3: circumstances in the world are. But you know, like I

11
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 3: said in the first recording, we're taking a shower with nature.

12
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 3: It's erotic, it's you know, it's borderline pornographic, and we're

13
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 3: having the time of our lives. Let's get into the podcast.

14
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 3: I love today's guest. It's Eric Edelstein. Eric, welcome back.

15
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 4: I'm sick. I love this rain. I grew up in

16
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 4: the Northwest, and it's like Stockholm syndrome. I thing where

17
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 4: it just feels like home to me.

18
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 3: You seem very at ease.

19
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's great, right, and I couldn't be calmer at

20
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 5: this point.

21
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 4: Oh come on, Although the tornado warning, yeah you told

22
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 4: me that frightened me slightly. I have no preparedness for

23
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 4: that at all.

24
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 3: While Analis was fixing things, you told me that there's

25
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 3: been a tornado warning.

26
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 4: It's a slight tornado warning.

27
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, tornado is not going to happen. The drama that

28
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 3: goes on in the LA news from the world.

29
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, the hurricane that we had. My moom was so scared.

30
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 4: She was terrified. She thinks it's like Key West. We're

31
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 4: having to board things. I'm like, it's about three inches

32
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,559
Speaker 4: of rain. Mom, We're fine. The dogs are still going

33
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 4: out in it. Like, quit scaring my mother. People in

34
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 4: the news.

35
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 3: The texts I get from my parents, and they don't

36
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 3: help me. They just add to my anxiety. Like just

37
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 3: wait until you're like you hear that I've been swept away,

38
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 3: then you can start text.

39
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

40
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 3: I'm nervous enough already.

41
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 4: Oh you too, huh oh yeah, oh yeah, terrified inside.

42
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 3: So I wonder where the tornado would even hit.

43
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 4: I don't know. I think Seami Valley or somewhere probably.

44
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 3: Yeah.

45
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 4: Nice, they love us artistic types. The tornado won't come

46
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 4: for us.

47
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 6: Man.

48
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 3: Come on, I mean, I'm from Salt Lake City and

49
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 3: we had a tornado like twenty years ago. I think.

50
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 3: I mean, it was a lot of drama for nothing.

51
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 3: It was you know, it was something to look at,

52
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 3: and I think it kind of Oh no, I'm like,

53
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 3: somebody probably died, and but I can't imagine did somebody

54
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 3: I don't know? Twenty years ago. It's the past, no

55
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:54,639
Speaker 3: no history.

56
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 4: Their daughter's listening right now. It's their favorite pot has

57
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 4: been the one thing they found since mom died. This

58
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 4: delightful podcast, and you sit here.

59
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 3: Mocking now she's finally leaving that review.

60
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 4: Oh there we go one star. Twenty years ago. My

61
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 4: mother just went out for a short walk and Bridger.

62
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,119
Speaker 4: That's it, friend, That's how it all starts here.

63
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 3: Oh have you ever been close to a tornado? I

64
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 3: feel like the Pacific Northwest is an experienced tornado.

65
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 4: No, it's pretty rare. It's one of those like Vancouver, Washington,

66
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 4: where I grew up, had one in like the fifties

67
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 4: or sixties, but there hasn't been one since. But this

68
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 4: rain is this is even by Northwest standards? Is it really?

69
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 1: Yeah?

70
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 4: For the intensity and like the big drops and right,

71
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: it's pretty wild and you know it's the stereotype of

72
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 4: down your people just don't know how to drive it in,

73
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 4: so I just that's an excuse for me to stay

74
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 4: in with my dogs, throw on some TV. You know,

75
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 4: I don't want to do it.

76
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 2: Man.

77
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 3: Right as we were discussing in the previous episode we recorded,

78
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 3: I saw you a couple of nights ago at a

79
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 3: birthday party for Sarah Tapscott.

80
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 4: She is the best, and I didn't know this. She

81
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 4: didn't have a prom, so it was a prom theme party.

82
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 3: She went to boarding school, and she threw what was

83
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 3: probably probably more expensive than my high school's prom. Oh

84
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean that's actually of course it was.

85
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 3: I think prom cost one hundred dollars. But it was

86
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 3: an extravaganza tattoos.

87
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 4: Bridger tattoos, and you and I both ducked the peer

88
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 4: pressure and came in free. We left in free.

89
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 3: I came very close just because I walked up like

90
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 3: I was going to I thought it was a temporary tattoo,

91
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 3: and then kind of had to just float around like

92
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 3: I was considering. I wasn't considering.

93
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 4: No, no, but I acted like I was considering.

94
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 2: Course.

95
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 4: And my wife's punk rock enough and has tattoos where

96
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 4: she would maybe do it, and she gets things like

97
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 4: maybe i'll get your initials on me, and there was

98
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 4: a long pause where I think that was my cue

99
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 4: to perhaps feeling you know what, babe, But those words

100
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 4: never came. Scared of the needle. I'm not ready yet.

101
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 4: It's gonna have to be a whole thing and a

102
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 4: lot more planning before I get my first tattoos.

103
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 3: I wonder how much they were charging.

104
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 4: I think it was free. Wasn't it nice?

105
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 3: Free?

106
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 4: I think. I hope Scott's got that. I think so.

107
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 3: But see I came in thinking they were temporary tattoos

108
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 3: and they were real, So it's like they must simply

109
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 3: must be charging for these. If they were free, I

110
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 3: would have gotten one just because of it was a bargain.

111
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, you just don't want to get cheated. That's most

112
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 4: of everything in La. You know how much stuff stuff

113
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 4: I eat that like it's it's free, It's it's free.

114
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 4: These skittles are free. Scrape for just free, it's free.

115
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 4: I'm not here to be I'm not here to get cheated.

116
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 4: It beat the system. Get in here.

117
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 3: You're not even donating blood?

118
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 4: No, never, I just hang outside the parking lot let

119
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 4: them like, Yeah, i'd be plus, I'm coming back any more. Skittles.

120
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, if I had known they were free, I probably

121
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 3: would be sitting here with the tattoo.

122
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 4: Right would you? Though? Really as.

123
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 3: The street spot and said go for it, give me

124
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 3: whatever you want, it's free.

125
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 4: And what would you've gotten? Like you told me? Or

126
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 4: maybe thinking of your first what what are you narrowing

127
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 4: it down to?

128
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,599
Speaker 3: I mean, I think, uh, my dog passed away a

129
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 3: couple of months ago, and I'm thinking about doing something

130
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 3: for her. So, but that's that's the beginning and end

131
00:05:57,279 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 3: of tattoos for me. I think that would be it

132
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 3: and then move on. But if someone offers a free

133
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 3: tattoo at a birthday party, they can do it to

134
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 3: Sarah Tapscott's face could be on my back right now.

135
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 4: Ah, your back would be perfect. Come and she would

136
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 4: love it. You would You would leave the MVP of

137
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 4: the party, which is, let's be honest, what we're all seeking.

138
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 4: I want to buzz about me like god, Eric is

139
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,160
Speaker 4: fun Boy just brought.

140
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 3: Life whispering that from a bush?

141
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 4: Oh yeah? Now are you a goodbye person or are

142
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 4: you an Irish goodbye person? I say this I'm half Irish,

143
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 4: so I think it's not a slur. I'm hoping.

144
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 3: I don't think it's a slur. I think that's something sisters.

145
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 4: In Ireland and kill Kenny. I'm so sorry if I've

146
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 4: disparaged you, but like I've perfected it.

147
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 3: It's a great goodbye. It's also that's the same thing

148
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 3: as a French exit.

149
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 4: Right, Oh, I've never heard the French exit. What's the

150
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 4: French exit?

151
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm I'm just assuming it's the same thing.

152
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 4: You just walk away, Yeah, And I think that's the

153
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 4: is an extra forty five minutes, right, And nobody in

154
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,360
Speaker 4: the part, and nobody like Sarah doesn't want forty five goodbyes. No,

155
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,239
Speaker 4: Sarah's having your first goddamn prom and she's duck queen.

156
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 3: She won queen.

157
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 4: She won queen.

158
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: Uh.

159
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 4: The rigged election bridge.

160
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 6: It's a rig It's a nasty little thing they do

161
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 6: over the east side on sunset.

162
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 4: It's a nasty little thing they do. But like, she

163
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 4: doesn't want you and I like. And then there's the

164
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 4: wait in line for everybody to give the goodbye, and

165
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 4: you're doing the same time. It's like kaiser. So there's

166
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 4: a wisp of wind and it's a large man leaving.

167
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 3: See I made this mistake at this party which I

168
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 3: was planning on. Just I mean, this is the bridge

169
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 3: or exit? Is I show up saying I'm leaving? That's

170
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 3: what I say to the first person. I've been here

171
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 3: too long, done, but goodbye. Yeah, So every person I

172
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 3: see is I'm leaving soon, and at least you have something.

173
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 4: No, what actually was that? It's an Irish or it's

174
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 4: a French exit in the UK, the Irish exit in

175
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 4: the US.

176
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 3: What is happening? Elish exit in Germany? English exit in France.

177
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 3: So nobody's everyone's pointing fingers.

178
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 4: I think we're tiptoeing around slurs here and we're just gonna.

179
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 3: Be light love every culture that Friday.

180
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 4: That is incredible info every a you know what that is.

181
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 4: It's a Polish exit and I'm sure it's related to

182
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 4: Wars in the thirteen hundred.

183
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 3: They got out.

184
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, they got out. We were in there. They left,

185
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 4: didn't even say goodbye. The tanks left. Oh that is amazing.

186
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 3: I had no clue. Wow, mind blown. But again, people

187
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 3: should be embracing that exit. It's that the ideal way

188
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 3: to leave a party.

189
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 4: No, for those of you on the fence right now,

190
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 4: don't say goodbye. That doesn't want that, just leave and

191
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 4: I'll do a slight tiptoe like I saw service in

192
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 4: the photo booth right, and I kind of then just

193
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 4: kind of put my head down, you know, as unobtrusive

194
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 4: as a giant man could be. But I'm like, she

195
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 4: doesn't want that. She's so she's a prompt.

196
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 3: She's got all these people to talk.

197
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 4: Oh so many I did.

198
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 3: I made a similar move, which was I was ready

199
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 3: to leave, and I said, I do have to say

200
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 3: bye to tap Scott, and then of course ran into

201
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 3: nine other people on my way. There was an extra

202
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 3: forty five. That's it too much.

203
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 4: No, it's too much. You just have to put your

204
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 4: head down and lead.

205
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, you just leave, be as rude as you possibly can.

206
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 4: That's it. That's it, and then get lunch with them later.

207
00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 4: And also, the thing I realized is like if people

208
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 4: are doing a party, right, they don't remember, like it's

209
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 4: all hazy, of course, And I think that's like the

210
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 4: joy of my forties is realizing like nobody's sitting there wondering,

211
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 4: oh my god, you know what Eric left and didn't

212
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 4: say goodbye, And then there's like calling people, do you

213
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 4: know what the hell happened that nobody cares.

214
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 3: Can you imagine what your life would be if you

215
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 3: were worrying about that?

216
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 4: That was it for a long time. Really, I used

217
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 4: to be yeah, you know, base level kind of people pleaser.

218
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 4: And we're working through a road of access leads the

219
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 4: palace of wisdom. But yeah, I used to worry about

220
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 4: offending people too much. Okay, now it's great to like, No,

221
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 4: they know me, they love me, we're all good. Sarah

222
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 4: comes over and does craft night with my wife, I'll

223
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 4: see her again. It's a delight.

224
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 3: My concern when I'm hosting a party is that I'm

225
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 3: not talking to people enough. I don't care about the

226
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 3: goodbyes any of that, but I'm just like, I just

227
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,719
Speaker 3: feel like i'm But that's what happens when you host

228
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 3: the party.

229
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 4: That's it.

230
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 3: You just commit to that you're actually not going to

231
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 3: get to have a meaningful conversation with anyone. No, and

232
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 3: you'll feel like you're slighting every single person. Oh that's it,

233
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 3: and that's what it.

234
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 4: Is, and they're gonna leave that party like you know

235
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 4: it didn't talk to me. Fucking Bridger.

236
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 3: I will never go to another never.

237
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 4: I'm putting his name on the list. You know, good

238
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 4: luck getting a job at Hulu. That pitch meeting is

239
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 4: going to get canceled nine times. You know what, because

240
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 4: we were at a goddamn prom and you did not saga.

241
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 4: You didn't even come up and say hello. I didn't

242
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 4: even get an eye contact, nothing, nothing. That's where my

243
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 4: mind goes, like I'm gonna get blacklisted out and say

244
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,319
Speaker 4: goodbye to enough people. But no, it's it's great.

245
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 3: And then we were we were talking about prom. You

246
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:41,679
Speaker 3: did go to prom.

247
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 4: I went to prom, but I was not cool. This

248
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 4: was fun because I feel reasonably cool.

249
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 3: Now where was your at?

250
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 4: This was at Central Catholic High School in Portland, Oregon.

251
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 3: Oh so it's Catholic Prom and in the gym.

252
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, deeply in the gym like one twentieth of

253
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:58,439
Speaker 4: Tapscott's budget.

254
00:10:58,679 --> 00:10:58,959
Speaker 2: Wow.

255
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,719
Speaker 4: No, there's no table money at Central Catholic, you.

256
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 3: Know, none of that balloons maybe so.

257
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 4: Pres and nuns monitoring. Wow, like with rule. But that

258
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 4: wasn't an issue for me, Luckily. I was so scared

259
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 4: and my head was sweating, and oh God, blessed late Bloomer, Bridger,

260
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 4: late Bloomer.

261
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 3: I mean, it was not an issue for me.

262
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 4: That's like you come down here and you're you're in

263
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 4: the land of like late bloomers and like detention. I

264
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 4: used to be nothing called jug, which was justice under

265
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 4: God for me if you make too many jokes and stuff,

266
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 4: and like some prest and nuns embraced my irreverence. Many didn't,

267
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 4: so I'd get jug justice under God or like I

268
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 4: was in Japanese and I just learned how to swear

269
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 4: and order water, and I learned how to write profanity.

270
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 4: So I ended up in jug for a while, wrote

271
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 4: smut for the school paper and got suspended from the

272
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 4: school paper and ended up in jug.

273
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 5: What are some Japanese swear words?

274
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 4: What do you eat shit?

275
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 3: That's polite?

276
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 4: Yeah? Chin chin chiboute, which is an invitation for a

277
00:11:59,080 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 4: sexual act.

278
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 3: This is horrible.

279
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 4: Two years of Japanese and may I have waters music

280
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 4: by Mosca?

281
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 3: Okay?

282
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 4: And these are probably butchered and wrong. I feel terrible.

283
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,439
Speaker 4: This is all I know, and I kind of want

284
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 4: to go back and relearn Japanese because I do love

285
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 4: the culture so much, but this is embarrassing. It's all

286
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 4: I know.

287
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 3: And those were those were taught outside of class. You

288
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 3: learned those outside.

289
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 4: I learned outside. Yeah, bootleg. Yeah, troubled Kid, man, troubled Kid.

290
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 3: Have you been to Japan?

291
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 4: No, I really want to.

292
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 3: You got to take.

293
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 4: My wife has been and I really would love to

294
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 4: go with her.

295
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 3: You would fit in perfectly in Japan.

296
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 4: I think I think they'd respond to my enthusiasm. I'm

297
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 4: also obsessed with Japanese baseball. Oh so I'd love to

298
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 4: do a Japanese baseball eating trip.

299
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 5: Oh my god, you do it right. Yeah, maybe, although

300
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 5: you have to get on that plane that's there in

301
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 5: lines there and I have not found and I'd be

302
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 5: curious if you have a great cure for jet lag.

303
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 5: Yet it just ficks my ass for days, and I

304
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,599
Speaker 5: feel like by the time I'm kind of over and

305
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,600
Speaker 5: I'm leaving and I need to find that perfect man.

306
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 3: Tough love, It's tough. You just have to immediately embrace

307
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 3: whatever the hours are and you just have to basically,

308
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 3: sometimes you have to be awake for twenty four hours.

309
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 3: Sometimes you have to take some sort of thing to

310
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 3: make yourself fall asleep in the middle of the day,

311
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 3: whatever it takes, and then when you get back, same thing. Really,

312
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,720
Speaker 3: no naps, nothing, no falling asleep early. If you're watching

313
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 3: TV at night. You have to be sitting in a

314
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 3: hard chair.

315
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,839

00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 4: sweet siren call of sleep grabs.

00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 3: Course.

319
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,599
Speaker 4: Did you see this Taylor Swift thing where at the

Speaker 4: super Bowl After the game, her boyfriend how are you

321
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,560

322
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 4: jet LAG's a choice. That's why you rule the world.

323
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 3: This is why I'm a Taylor Swift type. See people

00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 3: they need to pull themselves up. They're lazy.

Speaker 4: No sushi, it's on promise.

335
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 3: Well, I think we should get to something else. There

Speaker 3: podcast today. We met the other night, had a wonderful

339
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 3: conversation there. Now we're here, we've already recorded half a

340
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 3: podcast and watched it. Kind of just get swept away

341
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 3: with the digital c But there's some you know, the

342
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 3: podcast is said, no gifts, and you're already just falling apart.

343
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 4: You have.

344
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 3: You brought two gifts? It did clear.

345
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 4: I had them even wrapped at the Parchment Place on

346
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 4: Eagle Rock. I did.

347
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're gorgeous.

348
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 4: They are. I wish I could take more credit. And

349
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 4: she's got like a loaded baked potato thing. I feel horrible. Okay,

350
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 4: I'm telling you I'm a work in progress. I'm at

351
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 4: my core defiant. I'm you say, don't touch a stove.

352
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 4: I'm gonna hold my hand on it and say it's great.

353
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 4: And I I'm gonna spend the rest of my life

354
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 4: making this up to you.

355
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,520
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm furious. You feel terrible. This is the

356
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 3: energy you want on a podcast. Ah, you brought two

357
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 3: gifts too, which feels unfair, totally both of us gifts plural.

358
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 4: It's in the title if I'm gonna break a rule,

359
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 4: I'm really I'm gonna break it. I'm spiking the ball.

360
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 3: I said, no gifts. No, that would be an interesting

361
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 3: switch of title. Should you drop the s? No?

362
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 4: No, you went plural, So I went plural.

363
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 3: Yeah. Now I'm thinking about all the past guests who

364
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 3: have only brought one gift for the star.

365
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 4: How's that going for you?

366
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 3: Slime Ball?

367
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 4: Was he really twenty five minutes late? He was twenty

368
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 4: five minutes had blessed he's my favorite's Oh he's incredible.

369
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 3: Uh well, there are two gifts here? Should I open

370
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 3: them up?

371
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 4: Yeah?

372
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 3: The podcast?

373
00:15:54,200 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, this one first of all of it.

374
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 3: Now, this is like a little like I would say,

375
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 3: a cake box with it.

376
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's it's ultimately a failed gift because I

377
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 4: wanted to kind of cheat and if I'm going to

378
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 4: completely disregard your feelings in your one role, I'm going

379
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 4: to do it. Well, okay, so you said on the

380
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 4: linen parum, who is another? Come on now, that you

381
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 4: liked the princess cake from quarter Sheet? So I went,

382
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 4: it's not friend, it's not trust me. So I went

383
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 4: to quarter Sheet and then I saw there was a

384
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 4: line of about sixty people outside.

385
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 3: The place is gotten out of control, insane, and.

386
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,480
Speaker 4: I'm like, there's no way I can discreetly go in

387
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 4: thereat my way and ask for I don't need that moment.

388
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 4: So then I started reading the Yelp reviews because I

389
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 4: also got extremely interesting, like is it as good as

390
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 4: they say? All the reviews are like, it's worth the wait.

391
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 3: Best piece of maybe in the United States.

392
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 4: Right now, I'm so in hours, I'm going to get there. Well,

393
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 4: if you, apparently corny yelp, if you get there at

394
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 4: four thirty, yes, then it's a half hour. I'm here

395
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 4: to beat the system. No, I'm great. Then they open

396
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 4: and five, then I'm in. But then the only negative

397
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 4: stuff on Yelp was like, yeah, the princess cake. You

398
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 4: can get it at Clara's. Clara's in San Gabriel, and

399
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,679
Speaker 4: it's so much cheaper. So I drove out there today

400
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 4: and then I showed the picture on Yelp and she

401
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 4: went to me. She's like princess cake. I'm like yeah,

402
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 4: and she's like we're sold out. We don't add we

403
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 4: haven't had it in weeks. Wow. So then the guy

404
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 4: came out and he's like, hold on, why do you

405
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 4: want a princess cake? And I'm like, oh, well, this

406
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,719
Speaker 4: is great. Podcast, and my buddy said that it was incredible.

407
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 4: But then I went and like on yelped their piss

408
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,719
Speaker 4: because Groovers are selling it for eleven bucks of slice,

409
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,360
Speaker 4: and this guy's whole like business model changed in front

410
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 4: of He's like, what do you what do you mean?

411
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, they're like it's this hit place in

412
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 4: Echo Park. I went there on Friday and there was

413
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 4: like forty people outside and they're selling this ki. He's

414
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 4: like for eleven bucks. I'm like, yeah, groovers are selling

415
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 4: for eleven bucks, trying to get him to say groover

416
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,880
Speaker 4: but he didn't bite. But then so he's like, all right,

417
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,159
Speaker 4: there's a place in Monrovia that sells it. It's called

418
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 4: man Checkers, probably not called my Checkings. And then he's

419
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,120
Speaker 4: like I'm gonna go out. He's like they're paying eleven

420

Speaker 4: it for two months because we've had we've had issues.

424
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,120
Speaker 4: And he's like I can't believe. Yeah, this guy might

425
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 4: go to quarter sheets night and race.

Speaker 4: and had darry In the first three months back here,

451
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 4: it was like I don't know if you saw New

452
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,199
Speaker 4: Jack City, but it was like, Chris Rock is the

453
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 4: guy that's like working in the crack factory even though

454
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 4: he's a crack addict. And that was me for three months,

455
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 4: pulling into parking.

456
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:43,240

Speaker 4: So horrible, just pints of Ben and Jerry's and like no,

458
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 4: So I just have to be like no, I wish

459
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 4: I was one of those people. You strike me as

460
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:52,959
Speaker 4: a person that can have like three bites of something.

461
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 3: Oh oh that's not that's not true.

462
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 4: Really, bless you friends.

463
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 3: I mean what I have to do is I have

464
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 3: to control my access. So this is, uh, I'll make

465
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 3: one cookie a day. Every night, I make one cookie

466
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 3: and then I eat it. It's amazing really because if

467
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 3: I make like a whole cookie sheet, I will eat

468
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 3: every one of them. And so it's like I can't

469
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 3: do that. So I like, I make it and then

470
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 3: I turn off the oven. And so there's a huge

471
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,160
Speaker 3: barrier at that point for me to make another. Because

472
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:24,640
Speaker 3: there was a point when I was eating like nine

473
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 3: cookies a night and it was like, sure, that's maybe

474
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 3: a few too many. Now, it's a tough town.

475
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 4: You know. I feel better if I have a good day. Hey,

476
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:36,919
Speaker 4: let's have some sweets. If I have a bad day,

477
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 4: you know, I mean, feel better some sweetweets, you know.

478
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 3: So yeah, I have a really hard time controlling myself.

479
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 3: But I love it. I love it this.

480
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 4: You know, you can split it up, you can do

481
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 4: it whatever.

482
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 3: I mean, I feel like I should at least, do

483
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 3: you want to buy a tree? You were first. We're

484
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 3: gonna see what sort of this will tell us something.

485
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,080
Speaker 4: You figured out the roots of the Irish goodbye.

486
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 3: And then I will make some assumptions about you. So

487
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:08,280
Speaker 3: just be careful. Analisa has been very careful. There's a

488
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 3: lot of thinking. Oh and it looks like is this

489
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 3: a croissant.

490
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 4: With cream films inside? I would take a bite right there.

491
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, now we can compare and take a bite.

492
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 4: Yeah. And this place is amazing. And that's part of

493
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 4: what I love so much about Los Angeles is all

494
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 4: these cultures that I mean, like driving out there, there

495
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 4: were three different like Chinese places I wanted to go to,

496
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,479
Speaker 4: and I was yelping them and like, you know, it's

497
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,679
Speaker 4: an embarrassment of riches. That's the danger for me with

498
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 4: door Dash is the radius we're in because I can

499
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 4: get Tai food from ty Town, Chinese food from the

500
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 4: San Gabriel Valley, which some would say is now the

501
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 4: best in the world because so many of their chefs

502
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 4: have come over this right, the Mexican food from East La,

503
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 4: a bevy of things from the valley, and it's a

504
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:57,880
Speaker 4: very dangerous radius for me where I'm at.

505
00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 3: I would love to ask you about some of your

506
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 3: favorite go to restaurants because I have been trapped in

507
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:07,679
Speaker 3: a cycle. I've got to break free, and I like

508
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 3: every night dinner rolls around and I panic because there's

509
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 3: nothing new for me to try.

510
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 4: Well, you know, what's what kind of food are you

511
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 4: looking for around here? Because we're neighbors, yes, and you

512
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 4: know I'm like two and a half miles away.

513
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 3: We go for Mexican food.

514
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 4: That's where I thought you were going to go. It's Chicos, Chicos.

515
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 3: Where's Chos.

516
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 4: It's so close. You don't have to tell me the

517
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 4: no no, no, no no, Well, I'll just tell them

518
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 4: your address. It's one hundred North.

519
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 3: Fifty, Chicos.

520
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 4: It's so ridiculously good. It's such a wonderful lunch place.

521
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 4: If you can, I recommend going in with a friend

522
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 4: that's famous, and then they'll start treating you with respect

523
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 4: instead of freezing you out. So he you know, it's

524
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 4: ironic that people sometimes that respond to a famous person.

525
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 4: But once I did there, now suddenly I get more

526
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 4: respect because there's a possibility I might bring a famous

527
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 4: friend back. Exactly. So Chicos is incredible. Now I went

528
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 4: for you. I've not yet found an incredible tie place

529
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 4: in our neighborhood. I go to Sonami Loong, which is

530
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 4: on Kingsley in Hollywood. It's worth a drive to Tie Town.

531
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 4: It's got it all on The sign on the side

532
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 4: is best Noodles in la and I have found that

533
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,439
Speaker 4: to be true. We also loved Git Lata. They love

534
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 4: celebrities there too.

535
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 3: I worked at a Thai restaurant during college, so I'm

536
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,200
Speaker 3: a bit of an expert.

537
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 4: It's so good and it's ridiculous. I mean, I used

538
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 4: to go to my favorite place in the world that

539
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,120
Speaker 4: I've eaten. The most I've eaten anywhere is a place

540
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 4: called Rice Walk on the corner of Laurel Canyon and

541
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 4: moor Park.

542
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 3: What sort of food is it?

543
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 4: It's Chinese food and they're like family there, go in

544
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 4: and say hi to Nancy and Peter. But I used

545
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 4: to live in an apartment on Las Palmas. It was

546
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 4: a former one hour motel. I didn't have a kitchen.

547
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 4: My kitchen was a George Foreman grill on the back

548
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 4: of a toilet. So they had this incredible lunch special

549
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,879
Speaker 4: and I only went there because my buddy and improv

550
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:00,919
Speaker 4: class games. Like, dude, I just saw John Goodman at

551
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 4: a Chinese restaurant by my house.

552
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 3: Oh celebrity siding. I would die.

553
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 4: Oh have you never seen him outain about?

554
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 3: No? And I love that man.

555
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 4: He's the king, He's my hero.

556
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 3: He's so good.

557
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's I mean, that's why when people get upset

558
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 4: about the Oscars, I'm like, they didn't nominate John Goodman

559
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 4: for Lebowski, exactly the whole thing. They didn't nominate Bill

560
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 4: Murray for Rushmore. Like just celebs nominated, and if something

561
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 4: is comedic undertones, it doesn't get nominated a lot of times.

562
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 4: But Goodman's the king. But you also know he's not

563
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 4: gonna phone in him a Chinese food meal. Oh course,

564
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 4: So I started eating there, and yeah, I'm weird. Half

565
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 4: was probably just to see him. But the food is

566
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,400
Speaker 4: so good there. I love them there so much. They're

567
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 4: still thriving post COVID, but that's my favorite Chinese food place,

568
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 4: Rice Walk. Now, Chinatown is a whole lot of thing,

569
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 4: and I'm really obsessed with Chinatown.

570
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 3: What are you doing in China?

571
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,880
Speaker 4: I think if I ever got an office, i'd be there.

572
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 4: But there's a place called Golden Tree. Yang Chow is iconic.

573
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 4: There's that Louisiana place that does Poe Boys that I

574
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:00,159
Speaker 4: forget the name.

575
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 3: Most of the food I've been in Chinatown has not

576
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:03,160
Speaker 3: been Chinese.

577
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 4: It's a wonderful like microcosm of Los Angeles, and I

578
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 4: just love it down there. It's so darn fun.

579
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 3: It's fun to walk around. Oh yeah, there's a good

580
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 3: coffee place. Thank you Coffee. I believe it's what it's.

581
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 4: Oh, I haven't been there. I like Burger Lord's there,

582
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 4: although we've been closer to us here.

583
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 3: There's there's Scouts, there's a halland Rays.

584
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,199
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, halland Raise is phenomen And.

585
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,119
Speaker 3: There was a Mexican place there that I adored and

586
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 3: now it's gone.

587
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 4: What's your favorite go to Mexican place.

590
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 3: place to be.

Speaker 3: shows that are absolute nightmas Well.

633
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 4: And I'm trying to drag people to Bob, and it's

634
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 4: so hard because I always told check in and I'd

635
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 4: always find it interesting and enjoy him. But in twenty nineteen,

636
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 4: I was in Minds Germany as you are, to see

637
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 4: a bunch of Neil Young shows because my friend was

638
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 4: playing in his band. And I'm like, I'm already here.

639
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,479
Speaker 4: Let me check in with Bob because I'm gonna take

640
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 4: a boat up the rhine. And I went and he

641
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:59,120
Speaker 4: came out smiling and grinning and like interacting with the audience,

642
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,679
Speaker 4: and it I could not believe it. And I just

643
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 4: looked and he gave a damn wow. And I looked

644
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 4: at him and I'm like, this son of a bitch

645
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,920
Speaker 4: is in love. And sure enough, soon after you see

646
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 4: a ring, he gives such a damn These days, every

647
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 4: town he's in, he does a separate song for that town.

648
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,880
Speaker 4: So he plays Montreal. He did a Leonard Cohen song

649
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 4: to honor Leonard.

650
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 6: Oh.

651
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 4: Andy's doing these incredible borsh Belt jokes every night, and

652
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 4: he does these references for when he's in New York.

653
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 4: You can naturally mention like, so he'll be like Indianapolis.

654
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:32,919
Speaker 6: This is so good to see Hallan Wilson here, but

655
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 6: when he was in New York goes, it's so good

656
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,200
Speaker 6: to be here in New York. Thank you him and

657
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 6: Melville's from here. I'd be like, that's Bob's reference.

658
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 4: But I always worry I'm gonna drag my friends and

659
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 4: sit there super close, and he's gonna come out and

660
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 4: be in different again. It will be awakenings where I'm like.

661
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 3: He was wide awake, he just cared.

662
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 4: I'm like he was in love like she left him. Yeah,

663
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 4: but I also love his new album, so yeah, Bob

664
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 4: can be can be that way, and that's my worry.

665
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 4: But cap power singing Bob Dylan that sounds will be credible.

666
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 4: And also I'm not going to say anywhere near where

667
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 4: I love. But I'm completely starstruck because Sharon von Atten

668
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 4: lives in my neighborhood. I've seen her driving. I'm just

669
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 4: trying to be like cool and oh I pass away. No, right,

670
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 4: Like I can't believe she's so cool.

671
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 3: Now I've got to really keep my eyes paced.

00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 4: it's so rare to get a real apology, and people

687
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 4: appreciate it so much when they do it, and they

688
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 4: don't like, no, I didn't do that at all, And

689
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,440

716
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 4: I know we've all been to Hellmel Valve's art gallery.

717
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 4: I'm on the email list. I got a chance to

718
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 4: get this. I love reading books from character actors and

719
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 4: wonderful weirdos, and Valves definitely part of that. And I

720
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 4: thought you might enjoy it or I'm also embrace the regift.

723
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 4: up front because you don't want the curb your enthusiasm.

724
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 4: Somebody else gat in some things, but it's kind. I

725
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 4: had a fun moment recently. Let me ask you this

726
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 4: before I start. When you're giving a rap gift, do

727
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 4: you wear it around? Because I don't because I'm great

728
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 4: talking to people, But I feel like it invites conversation,

729
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 4: and so are the Incredible Heroic Future Lauren Michaels, Patrick

730
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 4: Cott Noir. Did I say last time? Cottner? Okay, Cottoner?

731
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 4: He's given him the French? I think you know it's

732
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 4: God bless, God bless So I knew he was a

733
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 4: fan of Twin Peaks, and I had a Twin Peaks

734
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 4: Sheriff's hat. Now I'm not going to wear that out.

735
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 4: I'm thrilled to talk to anybody, but then that invites it.

736
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 4: And Twin Peaks fans are the best. It was my

737
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 4: favorite show when I was twelve. But two percent of

738
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 4: them as they're talking to me are kind of measuring

739
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 4: their crawl space to see if I would fit for

740
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 4: a few months. God bless them. So I'm not going

741
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,240
Speaker 4: to give them the reason. So I gave it to

742
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 4: Patrick because he had me do the monologist at ask show,

743
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 4: which is a joy. And then there was an improv

744
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 4: legend in the room and I gave him the hat

745
00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 4: and he's like, you don't want this, man, I'm like, no, no,

746
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 4: I don't wear stuff from shows I've been on. It's

747
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 4: you know, like wearing your high school lettermans jacket twos

748
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 4: after you graduated, At which point the improv legend turned

749
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 4: around in his Two Broke Girls hoodie and went, hey, oh,

750
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 4: I guess on And I'm like, I don't think you

751
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 4: think it was two Broke Girls. It was like something

752
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 4: trying to copy Two Broke Girls. But hey, check cleared.

753
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 4: You can look up his networth online. But I felt

754
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,040
Speaker 4: horrible and there was no way to make it up,

755
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 4: to start on that plateau of basically accusing somebody wearing

756
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 4: a letterman's jacket. But I always laugh. I had one

757
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 4: friend where somebody came up to him He's like, oh man, god,

758
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 4: I'm like, you're wearing the shirt. If you're wearing like,

759
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 4: I have a glorious rain jacket, but it's got the

760
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 4: Jurassic World logo on right, and allow myself to wear

761
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 4: it and it's a great jacket.

762
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 3: I'm on the same page with you. I mean, there

763
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 3: are two things that I'll use that I've gotten from

764
00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 3: shows I've worked on. I got a backpack from Kimmy Schmidt,

765
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 3: but the logo is under the flap.

766
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 4: It's quality no, no, and if it was on the outside,

767
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 4: you can put a patch over it.

768
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 3: I'm on patches, exactly.

769
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 4: Yeah.

770
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 3: The other thing is a hoodie from Black Monday, and

771
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 3: it's the first thing I've ever been given from a

772
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 3: TV show that looks good. Oh yeah, so I'll wear

773
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 3: it like on morning strolls. Sure, but I've you know,

774
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,320
Speaker 3: people should not do this. I've met to write on

775
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 3: a show and the showrunner was wearing the show's merchandise

776
00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 3: and I just thought, I don't want to work for

777
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 3: this person.

778
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 4: They love it. And then I always laugh because I'm

779
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:27,240
Speaker 4: you know, most often i'm a guest star or recurring

780
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 4: and when I show up on the day of the

781
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 4: TV show where everybody's wearing the hoodie they just got

782
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 4: and you're kind of like, you know, it takes me

783
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,520
Speaker 4: back to junior high where I'm like, oh, I guess

784
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 4: four episodes did a lot of heavy lifting with the

785
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,160
Speaker 4: exposition I thought. I thought there was a whole buzz.

786
00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:42,680
Speaker 4: It's only supposed to be too. But I guess I'm

787
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 4: not good enough for the hoodie. It cost you twenty

788
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 4: six bucks, and everyone's kind of looking at you and

789
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,280
Speaker 4: like judging you for not having the hoodie. Of course

790
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 4: it's hierarchy, but that's the glorious thing with our town

791
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 4: is you're reminded quite often of where you are.

792
00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,399
Speaker 3: But so you need to take those situations and turn

793
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 3: them into cool. I have that at home. You could

794
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 3: just lie about it, and I was just right to

795
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 3: wear it like the rest of you dorks. Oh they

796
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 3: sent it to me, yeah, losers. Yeah, mine came a

797
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 3: personal person showed up at the door. It's got ee

798
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 3: huge And I'm not wearing that garbage.

799
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 4: No I'm not. I'm giving it away. I'm regifting it.

800
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 4: They got to know a sweet producer and Patrick, he'll

801
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 4: take it. It's his Brandy buys cool stuff on eBay.

802
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can't wear I mean, and then again podcast merchandise.

803
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,839
Speaker 3: We have a wonderful sweatshirt that I would love to wear.

804
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 3: Can't do it.

805
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:32,279
Speaker 4: No.

806
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 3: I considered riding over it with a marker, but then

807
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:36,839
Speaker 3: people are like, oh, this person's something's going wrong.

808
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 4: Maybe a bigger patch.

809
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 3: Check eBay for past huge redacted.

810
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 4: Right, that's it. But like if you're on York and

811
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,400
Speaker 4: you haven't had your coffee yet, you don't want some, Okay,

812
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,880
Speaker 4: So I'm sorry. The episode with Eric was life changing,

813
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 4: like the stuff about the Irish by and you're like,

814
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 4: you know, you don't want the invitation, but again, I'm

815
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 4: sure you're like me, thrilled to do it. And I'm

816
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,200
Speaker 4: also thrilled to walk through my resume with people, because

817
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 4: it'll drive people crazy if they don't know where I

818
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,160
Speaker 4: where they know me from, especially if I'm not in

819
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 4: LA and I just rapid fire it, and I'm thrilled

820
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 4: to walk them through it. Sure I don't need to

821
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,120
Speaker 4: invite that because then they'll click and like, oh, it's

822
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 4: that right.

823
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,439
Speaker 3: And then sometimes they because there are a million TV

824
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 3: shows now, they'll be like, well, I've never heard of

825
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 3: any of those.

826
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 4: People love that. They love me, like, where do I

827
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,359
Speaker 4: know you're from? I'm like, oh, I don't know. Green

828
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:24,360
Speaker 4: Room Shameless now we bear Bears, no, and they gleefully

00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 4: herbyr enthusiasm. No, and I'll just keep and the glee

832
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:38,880
Speaker 4: they have and saying they have not watched your parents.

833
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 3: You're talking about.

834
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:42,359
Speaker 4: Dad's one day gonna care. He wants me to come

835
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,680
Speaker 4: home and run the shop. Look, Mom, I love you, Dad,

836
00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 4: I love you. Please. This is all working out against

837
00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:48,799
Speaker 4: all odds.

838
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 3: Okay, So have you read this book?

839
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 4: I have not.

840
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 2: I have not.

841
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 3: I'm curious because his life is.

842
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 4: He's fascinating, and I have a funny theory with him

843
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 4: where I kind of think. There's this amazing book called

844
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 4: The Way of the Actor that Nicholas Cage endorses that

845
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 4: basically says actors are shamans and you're shape shifting. And

846
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,880
Speaker 4: I kind of think I thought he was incredible on

847
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 4: the Doors. But I sort of think Jim Morrison came

848
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,880
Speaker 4: in and didn't really leave. Oh because the next ten

849
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 4: years after he's like, hey, what are you doing? No,

850
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:21,360
Speaker 4: I'm investigating a killing out on the reservation. What happened?

851
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 4: Where will it go? Like, let Jim go, let it go.

852
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,280
Speaker 4: But I love him. I think I think he's heroic

853
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 4: and I love you. As an art gallery and Melrose and.

854
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he's just cool. He was Batman for a second. Yeah,

855
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,720
Speaker 3: but it was torn of fun, did the wild Batman

856
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 3: of fun. Speaking of actors who have kind of become

857
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 3: the person whoever played Elvis, what's that guy's name, Austin Butler,

858
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 3: he's now become Elvis.

859
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,800
Speaker 4: Well, that's right, man, because the spirit Elvis was just

860
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 4: kind of stick in. You bridge your man, it's a

861
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:49,439
Speaker 4: wild deal man.

862
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 3: Well, no one talks that way.

863
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 4: He went to a speech therapist. Well, I'm an Elvis

864
00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 4: nut and an Elvis snob and may have liberated a

865
00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 4: piece of shag carpet when I toured Graceland. Austin Butler,

866
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:04,719
Speaker 4: he nailed it, and I went, he went to a

867
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 4: speech therapist two months ago. Because he's in this.

868
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 3: I believe he's trying. He's actually trying to get out

869
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 3: of it.

870
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:12,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's two more movies. I think he's right now,

871
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 4: and like he's playing like a forties airman and I

872
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 4: haven't seen it, I'm sure. And look, man, you got

873
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 4: my six. All right, we're gonna go fly over, We're

874
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:26,960
Speaker 4: gonna kill Scrooge. Yeah, yeah, but he went, he said

875
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 4: he had to go to a speech therapist to get

876
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 4: out of it. But he nailed Sweet kid from Orange

877
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 4: County started out as a background. Wow, you gotta love

878
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 4: that story fross A, Los Angeles, but it stuck with

879
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,399
Speaker 4: him for those speeches were amazingly. I'd like to thank

880
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 4: the Academy.

881
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 2: Man.

882
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 3: It was like this person from Tustin.

883
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 4: I believe. Yeah, I love it though it's commitment.

884
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, and did the same thing. And uh, the art gallery,

885
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 3: what's happening there?

886
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 4: Hell, mel, there's a huge buzz. He chose his pieces,

887
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:57,800
Speaker 4: he signed an autograph.

888
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 3: It's all his art.

889
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:00,799
Speaker 4: It's all his art. It's very absent. It's a lot

890
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 4: of fun. And I just think there's some kind of

891
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 4: heroic about your Val Kilmer, just putting your heart out there,

892
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 4: meeting people, mixing it up. I don't know.

893
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 3: I think once you get to a level of, you know,

894
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,720
Speaker 3: financial success, you do just have to turn the hobby

895
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 3: into a thing that occupies everyone's space.

896
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 4: Sure, I just haven't. I did see him once. I

897
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 4: will say this with so much love and respect. I

898
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:28,800
Speaker 4: went to see Val Kilmer is Moses, oh maybe fourteen

899
00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 4: years ago. It was a musical about the Old Testament

900
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,919
Speaker 4: and Moses and all this stuff. And I'm like, whether

901
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 4: it's good or it's bad, it's gonna be awesome. We

902
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 4: left an intermission because he just he had cut it was. Yeah,

903
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 4: He's like, I've seen the burning Bush, I have commandments

904
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,839
Speaker 4: laid down from thee And I'm like, oh, val.

905
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,960
Speaker 3: Man, was it a one man show? No.

906
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,840
Speaker 4: They had a whole chorus that was trying so hard,

907
00:39:56,880 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 4: and he was just sleep walking through it. Bless his heart.

908
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 4: I think he cares a lot more now, but I

909
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:01,760
Speaker 4: think he was Moses.

910
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 3: What was the tone of this musical? It was like

911
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,120
Speaker 3: Oklahoma time, Yeah, very very much.

912
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 4: You know, you imagine a community theater putting up a

913
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:14,919
Speaker 4: medium production of Pippin kind of there, kind of there,

914
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,880
Speaker 4: I mean, almost Guffman esque but without the heart. Okay, yeah,

915
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 4: not mean to offend anyone that was in that production.

916
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 4: Aside from value. You were all incredible. I would have

917
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 4: been in Valkilmer as Moses as well, but that it

918
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 4: was now very funny think about But the time, I

919
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:30,520
Speaker 4: was frustrated because.

920
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 3: They didn't have much money to leave anything during the intermission.

921
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,320
Speaker 4: I don't do it entertaining.

922
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I just saw rewatched waiting for Guffman

923
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,759
Speaker 3: recently in a movie theater. No, I've never seen it

924
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 3: in a movie theater. Interesting experience in a movie theater.

925
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:49,399
Speaker 4: Actually, how was it?

926
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:50,040
Speaker 2: It was?

927
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 3: It was good because the movie is wonderful. But the

928
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 3: movie is like kind of a thing you should watch

929
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:58,000

931
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 3: of the things are very small, the things that make

932
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 3: you laugh. Oh, but it's such an unbelievable movie. Parker

Speaker 3: That is fascinating And it's such.

1041
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,320
Speaker 4: A sweet movie. And it's based on a true story.

1042
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 3: I hope that this is an unauthorized thing about me.

1043
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 3: This is that's right.

1044
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,400
Speaker 4: I didn't want to tell you. That's why it's so ironic.

1045
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 4: I was broad here today. It is no I play you.

1046
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:01,920
Speaker 4: There's a couple bodies in your cross space.

1047
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 3: I do not come across well and no, no.

1048
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:05,839
Speaker 4: Not at all. It hurt to play you. I went

1049
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 4: deeply method man.

1050
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,160
Speaker 3: You know you had to go to a speech therapist

1051
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 3: to get out of the voice.

1052
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:14,520
Speaker 4: Sure, No, forever I was just walking like you.

1053
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 3: Well, look forward to my letterbox review. This is how

1054
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 3: we play Gift or a Curse. I'm gonna name three things.

1055
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:22,760
Speaker 3: You'll tell me if they're a gift or a curse,

1056
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:24,799
Speaker 3: and why I don't. I'll tell you if you're right

1057
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:28,439
Speaker 3: or wrong, because there are correct answers. Okay, Number one,

1058
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 3: this is from a listener named Alec. Gift or a curse,

1059
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 3: outer space a curse.

1060
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:39,359
Speaker 4: It's such a justification for I believe everything Elon Musk

1061
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 4: is doing. He's just focusing on what we have to get.

1062
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 4: We're gonna get people to Mars, and I'm like, focus

1063
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,399
Speaker 4: on here, friend, there's things you can do now. This

1064
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 4: quest for outer space is nothing good. Let NASA explore it.

1065
00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 4: I'm grateful that it's there. I'm grateful it exists. I

1066
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:57,680
Speaker 4: believe our son is going to die at some point.

1067
00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 4: So that scares me. But let's focus on the Earth,

1068
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 4: not outer space, because that's why, Alec. It's a goddamn curse.

1069
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 3: Absolutely curse, what a waste, the whole thing, get rid.

1070
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:10,960
Speaker 4: Focus here.

1071
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 3: We should just build a ceiling around Earth. Oh, we

1072
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:15,640
Speaker 3: don't need any of that.

1073
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 4: No, none of it. Nothing good comes there.

1074
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 3: And truly, if we go to Mars, it's gonna be

1075
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,600
Speaker 3: just garbage, horrible. It's gonna be worse than the worst

1076
00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,760
Speaker 3: place on Earth, the red Planet, waste of everyone's time.

1077
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:28,640
Speaker 4: No, were we going to death Valley?

1078
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:30,720
Speaker 3: Yes, no permanent death valley.

1079
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,320
Speaker 4: No, let it go, No, Alex, no.

1080
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 3: Thank you, And no. Space is just kind of a

1081
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:41,240
Speaker 3: it's a giant tease. Yes, it has produced nothing good, nothing,

1082
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,320
Speaker 3: and uh, I mean anything out there doesn't want anything

1083

Speaker 4: and killed all of them.

1087
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:54,680

00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:05,200
Speaker 3: Crushed ice.

1092
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,640
Speaker 4: No, crushed ice is absolutely a curse because I don't

1093
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,640
Speaker 4: know if you saw this. There's now science and you

1094
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 4: can back this up and we have the greatest fact

1095
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,879
Speaker 4: check on the world right here. Crushed ice is where

1096
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 4: the most botulism and stuff in a fast food restaurant exists. Really, Yeah,

1097
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 4: it's the ice machines. That's what's killing people. The way back,

1098
00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:27,879
Speaker 4: it was Jack in the box in the in the

1099
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 4: in the Northwest, killing a couple of people. But now

1100
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 4: that ice machine is a petri dish of death, and

1101
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:39,719
Speaker 4: so now potential locd I do not get ice. You

1102
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:43,240
Speaker 4: don't get any of getting I'm getting a straight soda

Speaker 4: planet right now, and I don't want to risk anything

1107
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:51,840
Speaker 4: with that, with that ice.

1108
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:54,160
Speaker 3: I don't like myself as much as any cold drink.

1109
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:57,239
Speaker 4: Oh it's not worth it, man.

1110
00:48:56,680 --> 00:49:01,360
Speaker 3: Come on. So you're saying, I'm saying it's a curse.

1111
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 4: I mean you're right, yeah, because of the science, crushed.

1112
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:05,680
Speaker 3: Ice is a curse. This is my I like a

1113
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 3: pebble ice. I love a pebble ice.

1114
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 4: Oh sure, I love sanitary Yeah.

1115
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:13,399
Speaker 3: And ice cube, crushed ice just is it's such a waste.

1116
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 3: It's so close to water. It's either gonna melt or

1117
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 3: become a solid thing almost immediately in the drink. Horrible.

1118
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 3: It's the worst of the ice and you have to.

1119
00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:23,839
Speaker 4: Filter the liquid through your lips and then that hits

1120
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:26,640
Speaker 4: my danger teeth and then that's I have cold sense

1121
00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:27,040
Speaker 4: in your.

1122
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 3: Mouth is getting cut up everywhere that.

1123
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 4: I didn't descend from animals for this.

1124
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:36,600
Speaker 3: To be eating shards of what is essentially glass, the botulism,

1125
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 3: I didn't even know about this. We're I just learned

1126
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,880
Speaker 3: recently that the you know, people are always afraid of

1127
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:45,360
Speaker 3: salmonilla in raw cookie dough. It's not because of the eggs,

1128
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 3: it's because of the flour. No what Apparently because flowers

1129
00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:54,640
Speaker 3: raw and apparently that more often carries the bacteria. I mean,

1130
00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 3: this was again, this was just told to me and

1131
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,799
Speaker 3: I did no fact checking, but it seemed like weird

1132
00:49:59,880 --> 00:50:00,640
Speaker 3: and to be true.

1133
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:02,880
Speaker 4: No, well, I believe because people do eat raw eggs.

1134
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:06,120
Speaker 3: Yes, he's been eating them every day.

1135
00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:06,879
Speaker 4: It's the whole thing.

1136
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,960
Speaker 3: Of course they're doing all of those ra eggs. So

1137
00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:12,439
Speaker 3: I think it's the flower. And then like let us

1138
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:13,560
Speaker 3: is always a thing.

1139
00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:16,920
Speaker 4: Oh that's it, the romain. You don't want that to

1140
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:20,520
Speaker 4: be your last minute on Earth eating I'm dying. You're

1141
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:22,400

1142
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,400
Speaker 4: saying goodbye, and I'm like, I'm dying because of a

1143
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,439
Speaker 4: fucking medium caesar salad. What cruel fate?

1144
00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,360
Speaker 3: Is this horrible? And again in the caesar salad, the

1145
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:34,560
Speaker 3: raw egg very true. Well, I guess that's a really romain.

1146
00:50:34,680 --> 00:50:36,360
Speaker 4: Do you know where the caesar salad was invented?

1147
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:37,040
Speaker 3: Mexico?

1148
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 4: Yes?

1149
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 3: I may have learned that on this podcast.

1150
00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:44,719
Speaker 4: Oh that's amazing. I went there last time. I went

1151
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,440
Speaker 4: to comic Con. My buddy and I went to Tijuana. Oh,

1152
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 4: we didn't know there's a travel advisory. And it terrified

1153
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 4: the showrunner of the show I was on. And then

1154
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 4: they almost were looking at me scared. Well, guess what

1155
00:50:56,200 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 4: they all got COVID sharing. Lunch in San Diego. Tijuana

1156
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,920
Speaker 4: was fine, and I had where the caesar salad originated,

1157
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:04,400
Speaker 4: the Hotel Caesar, and it was lovely.

1158
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 3: You went to the actually salad so good.

1159
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:11,040
Speaker 4: And I just I love Tijuana. It was very fun

1160
00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 4: and the rooms there are beautiful. I didn't stay there,

Speaker 4: so beautiful.

1164
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:20,920
Speaker 3: I've heard a lot of good things about Tijuana. Apparently

1165
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 3: it's like, you know, it's like Las Vegas. Something bad

1166
00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 3: can happen to you if you do risky things.

1167
00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 4: If you go to the outskirts lookings for yak. I mean,

1168
00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,720

00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,439
Speaker 4: It felt very very safe to me, and I would

1172
00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 4: love this to be a comic con thing is now

1173
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:43,879

1174
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,640
Speaker 4: the next Marvel drop. Necessarily go downtown, get where the

1175
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:47,759
Speaker 4: Sear salad originated.

1176
00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 3: And you had a Caesar salad.

1177
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:50,279
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it was so good.

1178
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,759
Speaker 3: Did it taste different than like one you'd had in

1179
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 3: the unit?

1180
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,520
Speaker 4: Very different? It was like, yeah, yeah, it's like they

1181
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:58,960
Speaker 4: brushed the lettuce leaves. Oh, and it wasn't like you know,

1182
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:03,720
Speaker 4: with like tomato. It was very simple as Caesar himself

1183
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:06,239
Speaker 4: made it because he was an Italian expat living in Tijuana.

1184
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:07,880
Speaker 4: Highly recommend it.

1185
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:09,680
Speaker 3: They're a confusing origin story.

1186
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 4: Come on. Yeah, he didn't make it easy for us,

1187
00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:13,920
Speaker 4: but the salad is incredible.

1188
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:18,520
Speaker 3: And it does feel very Italian. Yeah right, okay, you're

1189
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:21,759
Speaker 3: two for two, which I'm very impressed by. Number three.

00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:23,880
Speaker 3: This is from a listener named Jennifer. Gift to a

1191
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:27,560
Speaker 3: curse when someone asks, unprompted, if you have plans later?

1192
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:32,880
Speaker 4: Oh, the biggest curse. You're walking into a trap because

1193
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,440
Speaker 4: somebody says, I don't care what are you doing tonight?

1194
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:39,880
Speaker 4: All right? Very often that question. It's not if I

1195
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:42,520
Speaker 4: say I'm not doing anything. Why they're not saying, Oh,

1196
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:44,480
Speaker 4: because they've got a bushelful of cash i'd like to

1207
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:12,879
Speaker 4: Or for me, this is the curse of the big man,

1208
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 4: and also I'm friendly. It's like, what do you well,

1209
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:18,279
Speaker 4: I kind of need this couch moved, and you know,

1210
00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:20,840
Speaker 4: I'm like, there's an app for that. It's sixty bucks.

1211
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,520
Speaker 4: Hey never, I'm trying to think of one time somebody

1212
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:26,160
Speaker 4: said what are you doing? Later a couple of weeks

1213
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:28,360
Speaker 4: ago someone asked me invited me to wrestling, but I

1214
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:30,800
Speaker 4: had already done the preemptive lie.

1215
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:31,520
Speaker 3: Oh no.

1216
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 4: Anytime somebody says that I've got plans right and I'm

1217
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,359
Speaker 4: like that, that's to me the greatest thing about being married.

1218
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 4: He's like, oh god, I'd love to go got my wife.

1219
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 4: I turned into like the eighties sitcom down, like, oh

1220
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:46,439
Speaker 4: my god, I'd love to go to whatever you're about

1221
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:48,719
Speaker 4: to pitch me. But they all bowing chains got me

1222
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 4: doing stuff. She doesn't have me to do anything. She

1223
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:53,040
Speaker 4: gives me the ultimate freedom in this life. I'm saying

1224
00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:55,040
Speaker 4: that as an absolute excuse because I don't believe what

1225
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:56,279
Speaker 4: you're gonna pitch me is good.

1226
00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:56,799
Speaker 3: Why.

1227
00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:58,280
Speaker 4: Because it's a motherfucking curse.

1228
00:53:59,080 --> 00:53:59,760
Speaker 3: It's a curse.

1229
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:03,960
Speaker 4: Have you ever been pitched that? And it's been something incredible?

1230
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:09,799
Speaker 3: Eric, You're right, you just won the game. You've won

1231
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:14,799
Speaker 3: the game. This question, to me is on the same

1232
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:19,960
Speaker 3: level of do you know anything about computers? Both of

1233
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:22,399
Speaker 3: these questions. It's just like, there's no good thing that's

1234
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:26,040
Speaker 3: going to happen after this, and unfortunately I'm a bad liar.

1235
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:28,560
Speaker 3: I'm actually I'm probably a good liar if I've got

1236
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 3: enough time and energy, but in these moments, I'm a

1237
00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:34,520
Speaker 3: horrible liar and I just say no. I mean, so

1238
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:37,200
Speaker 3: I don't lie. I say you know, and I fall

1239
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,040
Speaker 3: into the trap. And it's a horrible feeling, the worst

1240
00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:43,520
Speaker 3: feeling in the world, the worst because there's really never

1241
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 3: been a good plan. I don't mind it as spontaneous.

1242
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:48,719
Speaker 3: Do you want to get dinner later? Because we've got

1243
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,960
Speaker 3: a specific detail and I can, I can say yes

1244
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 3: or no, but the kind of just cloudy. What will

1245
00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:57,520
Speaker 3: I be walking into here? I can't do it.

1246
00:54:57,800 --> 00:55:00,800
Speaker 4: No, We'll lead with what you're doing. That's what I

1247
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:03,920
Speaker 4: would say, say, Hey, I have tickets to X tonight, right,

1248
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:08,400
Speaker 4: can you? Because I love a spontaneous lunch because I

1249
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:10,000
Speaker 4: feel like in la if you try to plan a

1250
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:13,840
Speaker 4: lunch where young people have promised, something's gonna come up,

1251
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:15,879
Speaker 4: especially Heaven forbid if you try to plan a lunch

1252
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,400
Speaker 4: with three people. Somebody's gonna get something like, Okay, well,

1253
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 4: how does your like stop this awful? But I'll do

1254
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:23,359
Speaker 4: Like if it's like Wednesday at tenth there, I'm like,

1255
00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 4: what's the team doing for lunch? Do you want to

1256
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:28,759
Speaker 4: meet a kitchen mouse? That works? Great? Love that spontaneity,

1257
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,279
Speaker 4: but you have to lead with what you want. If

1258
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,560
Speaker 4: it's the blanket, what are you doing tonight? I'm assuming

1259
00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 4: nothing good is gonna happen.

1260
00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:37,520
Speaker 3: We're headed to grandma's funeral.

1261
00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,640
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we should be so lucky. That's more fun

1262
00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:41,560
Speaker 4: than an improv show.

1263
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:43,440
Speaker 3: Sorry.

1264
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:47,920
Speaker 4: Sorry, great improv shows like the one Patrick books that's amazing,

1265
00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 4: But too often it's you know it's on Peko and

1266
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:54,759
Speaker 4: oh it's just not gonna be good, and like you're

1267
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:57,640
Speaker 4: sitting there and it's it's exhausting. Improv is very fun

1268
00:55:57,640 --> 00:55:59,440
Speaker 4: to do. I love doing improv.

1269
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:02,759
Speaker 3: Imp When it's good, it's good when it's bad. It

1270
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:06,040
Speaker 3: is the exact same feeling of being someone describing a

1271
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:10,080
Speaker 3: dream to you, the exact thing except for your now

1272
00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:11,560
Speaker 3: like having to clap.

1273
00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:15,120
Speaker 4: And lie afterward. Yeah, like I'm forty six now hour

1274
00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 4: it's so hard for me to muster it. But but

1275
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,840
Speaker 4: you can't do the congratulations or that looks so fun.

1276
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:23,080
Speaker 4: They know what you're doing, so you got But man,

1277
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,560
Speaker 4: that was so I'll do one. Oh man, that that

1278
00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:28,360
Speaker 4: part where you turned into the cucumber.

1279
00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:30,680
Speaker 3: Oh man, how a me thinking about that?

1280
00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:35,240
Speaker 4: Oh boy, I saw the cucumber and the space work friend?

1281
00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:36,640
Speaker 4: Are you kidding?

1282
00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:39,719
Speaker 3: I do think I just thought of a good lie

1283
00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:41,680
Speaker 3: you could. A good thing to say is I'll be

1284
00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:44,080
Speaker 3: thinking about that for years, because you in your mind

1285
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:46,839
Speaker 3: you can be thinking bad things about it for years.

1286
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:49,080
Speaker 3: Will but the person doesn't know no.

1287
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:52,080
Speaker 4: And I've seen the greatest improvisers do shows and they

1288
00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:54,439
Speaker 4: were incredible. I can't remember them, but a bad one

1289
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,440
Speaker 4: that I was dragged to, you know, or heaven forbid.

1290
00:56:57,440 --> 00:56:59,279
Speaker 4: When when you're single and you watch somebody do a

1291
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:02,920
Speaker 4: bad show, any attraction for me flies out the window.

1292
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:04,840
Speaker 3: Oh of course, You'll be getting into.

1293
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,920
Speaker 4: An intimate moment and you're thinking about like horrible Southern

1294
00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:10,800
Speaker 4: Voice they did, Hey me, Ma, where are you coming?

1295
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:14,440
Speaker 4: And like, oh my god, any arousal flies out the window,

1296
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 4: and I'm like, I'm thinking about her doing mem and

1297
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:18,480
Speaker 4: it's gone.

1298
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:22,320
Speaker 3: I'm like, you know, yeah, I'm glad we're on the

1299
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:23,240
Speaker 3: same page.

1300
00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:25,280
Speaker 4: Three three, three for three, three for three.

1301
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:26,320
Speaker 3: Very elite group.

1302
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 4: I think we're very friendly people. But there's also, you know,

1303
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,120
Speaker 4: just a tiny bit of an honest curmudgeon underneath. That

1304
00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:33,280
Speaker 4: is yea, not about lying anymore.

1305
00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:36,120
Speaker 3: No, we we see things. We see outer space for

1306
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:36,640
Speaker 3: what it is.

1307
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:39,000
Speaker 4: Fuck yeah. Finally for some of.

1308
00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:42,800
Speaker 3: The few, well, it's time for the final segment of

1309
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:45,520
Speaker 3: the podcast. It's called I Said No emails. People write

1310
00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 3: into I Said No gifts at gmail dot com begging

1311
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:54,640
Speaker 3: for my world class help and my guest's decent help.

1312
00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:55,680
Speaker 3: Will you help me?

1313
00:57:57,320 --> 00:57:57,480
Speaker 4: Ding?

1314
00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,720
Speaker 3: Okay, let's get into the dock here. Let's see this

1315
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:04,880
Speaker 3: is dear Bridger and beautiful guest. That's very nice. About

1316
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 3: a year and a half ago, my husband and I

1317
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,000
Speaker 3: were both about to turn forty. Within our families, we

1318
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 3: typically only buy birthday gifts for our kids and nieces

1319
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:17,240
Speaker 3: and nephews. However, my husband's youngest sister declared that we

1320
00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 3: should be giving milestone birthday gifts. She organized with her

1321
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,080
Speaker 3: siblings and their spouses to chip in money to get

1322
00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:26,000
Speaker 3: my husband a sizeable gift card to a golf pro

1323
00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:28,840
Speaker 3: shop and a sizeable gift card for myself to my

1324
00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:32,840
Speaker 3: favorite bookstore for our fortieth birthdays. The gesture was lovely

1325
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:35,160
Speaker 3: and much appreciated, but I take issue with the fact

1326
00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:37,720
Speaker 3: that we had not done this for their older sister,

1327
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:40,520
Speaker 3: older brother, and his wife, who are all now well

1328
00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:43,840
Speaker 3: into their forties. Oh it's kind of a nasty pointing

1329
00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 3: of the age. My husband and I suspect this is

1330
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,280
Speaker 3: all in place as a ramp up to the youngest

1331
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:54,440
Speaker 3: sister's upcoming fortieth this March. This sister's husband also just

1332
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,840
Speaker 3: turned forty in December, and because we typically don't exchange gifts,

1333
00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:00,320
Speaker 3: this idea of a milestone birthday gift didn't even cross

1334
00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:03,680
Speaker 3: my mind. A few days after his birthday, I received

1335
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 3: a text from her saying, was your family going to

1336
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:10,880
Speaker 3: do anything for John's birthday? It was Monday. I didn't

1337
00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:13,800
Speaker 3: acknowledge this message because it was so audacious. Are we

1338
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:17,240
Speaker 3: now obligated to organize and give her a milestone birthday gift?

1339
00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:21,040
Speaker 3: If yes, should it be so embarrassingly extravagant and outrageous

1340
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:22,960
Speaker 3: to prove that we are all better gift givers just

1341
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:26,000
Speaker 3: to spite her? Oh? My god, thanks for your help.

1342
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:30,200
Speaker 3: Ashley in Toronto, ps, please say hello to Analis for me. Onalise,

1343
00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:35,000
Speaker 3: Ashley says hello. Well, first of all, I'm just gonna

1344
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:39,200
Speaker 3: say it. I love this younger sister, right ah. Whatever

1345
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 3: she's doing is so transparent and incredible. She's playing the

1346
00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:49,120
Speaker 3: worst chess game. She's playing one D chess, and we

1347
00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:51,520
Speaker 3: have to she should pat herself on the back for

1348
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 3: trying to get a big gift. We love a scheme,

1349
00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:57,040
Speaker 3: we love a scam, and this younger sister wants something

1350
00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 3: big for her fortieth so she waited till the very

1351
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:03,000
Speaker 3: last gift, gave that gift, and is now turning the

1352
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:06,680
Speaker 3: wheels to get herself something. But what should Ashley do?

1353
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:10,040
Speaker 3: Does she have to give her the milestone birthday gift? Well,

1354
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:12,240
Speaker 3: I mean, first of all, she hasn't responded to her text,

1355
01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:14,880
Speaker 3: which I love, so she's basically cut her out of

1356
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:15,480
Speaker 3: her life.

1357
01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:17,520
Speaker 4: Waiting for you, friend, yes, right light.

1358
01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:22,400
Speaker 3: The younger the young sister may just like think Ashley

1359
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 3: is no longer part of her life, so that gift

1360
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:25,920
Speaker 3: may have taken care of itself.

1361
01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 4: Wow, which is essentially a gift.

1362
01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:32,480
Speaker 3: A gift, But Ashley has a sizeable gift card to

1363
01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:35,240
Speaker 3: a bookstore and a sizeable gift card to a golf

1364
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:38,440
Speaker 3: a pro shop. What do golfers call it? Who cares?

1365
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:42,000
Speaker 3: So what I say is regift one of these things

1366
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:45,560
Speaker 3: you or no, don't even do that. Go to the bookstore,

1367
01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:47,720
Speaker 3: use your gift card to buy a book to give

1368
01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 3: to younger sister. Go to the golf pro shop to

1369
01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:54,560
Speaker 3: buy five wood. Is that what you call a club?

1370
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:57,840
Speaker 4: I think I don't. I went. I've hit golf balls

1371
01:00:57,840 --> 01:01:00,920
Speaker 4: once and I literally couldn't the ball of the teat.

1372
01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,520
Speaker 3: Order a silver bell or whatever they call them.

1373
01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:03,320
Speaker 4: I think that's it.

1374
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 3: I feel like that's a beautiful gift for the younger sister.

1375
01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:09,000
Speaker 4: Yeah. And at the bookstore, you can also get gift

1376
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:11,880
Speaker 4: cards to other places like here's the thing. She is

1377
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:15,200
Speaker 4: playing chess. She's cornered you completely. For this family to

1378
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:19,280
Speaker 4: be able to keep talking. They're also Canadian, which I love,

1379
01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 4: and that means that politeness is key in a way

1380
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:25,200
Speaker 4: that Americans aren't. So I think you can use that

1381
01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:29,080
Speaker 4: gift card to get other stuff perhaps, but you have

1382
01:01:29,160 --> 01:01:31,880
Speaker 4: to get some kind of gift. She absolutely set it

1383
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,960
Speaker 4: up like this and bad news. You are cruising to

1384
01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:38,480
Speaker 4: buy more milestone gifts as those people who as you

1385
01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:41,360
Speaker 4: so eloquently said, are in their late forties. Once they

1386
01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 4: hit fifty, the president has been set even bigger. Yeah, now,

1387
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:48,920
Speaker 4: if you want to stop this whole cycle, don't do

1388
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 4: the gift now, because you're on the hook now for

1389
01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 4: a bunch of gifts for people when they turn fifty,

1390
01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:56,360
Speaker 4: which is more of a milestone than forty in a

1391
01:01:56,440 --> 01:01:57,240
Speaker 4: tough economy.

1392
01:01:57,440 --> 01:01:59,680
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, headed towards financial ruin.

1393
01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,959
Speaker 4: I think you have to get a gift, but use

1394
01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:06,440
Speaker 4: your book card thing to regift or regift something else.

1395
01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:08,960
Speaker 4: But like she's set a press in a milestone gifts,

1396
01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:09,800
Speaker 4: it's very hard.

1397
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:12,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, buy something at the bookstore. Maybe buy a book

1398
01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:15,160
Speaker 3: that's really in poor taste, so the sister kind of

1399
01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:16,720
Speaker 3: distances herself.

1400
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:17,880
Speaker 4: Be your first book.

1401
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:23,720
Speaker 3: It's a nice, trashy book. Whatever I say is going

1402
01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:25,640
Speaker 3: to be a wrong answer for somebody.

1403
01:02:26,240 --> 01:02:28,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, get like some harlequin romance ones.

1404
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 3: I feel like they have a lot of those harlequin

1405
01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:32,920
Speaker 3: romances with cowboys.

1406
01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:35,480
Speaker 4: Oh well, of course you're out in the range. There's

1407
01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:36,160
Speaker 4: nothing else to.

1408
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:41,000
Speaker 3: Do, right, Yeah, get Yeah, the sister will be so baffled,

1409
01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 3: show like, maybe I just shouldn't talk to Ashley anymore.

1410
01:02:44,960 --> 01:02:46,479
Speaker 4: Which is a gift you got rid of her.

1411
01:02:46,840 --> 01:02:48,840
Speaker 3: It's perfect. You got to get rid of the younger sister.

1412
01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,200
Speaker 3: That's the final final say on this.

1413
01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:53,760
Speaker 4: Or if you really want to get passive aggressive, you

1414
01:02:53,800 --> 01:02:58,640
Speaker 4: do a homemade gift, oh, like embroider a pillow, like

1415
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:01,520
Speaker 4: find something on Etsy could seem like you did it yourself,

1416
01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:04,360
Speaker 4: but something wonderfully tacky, but right. Sometimes you'll give some

1417
01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:06,520
Speaker 4: gifts from people and they really think they've nailed it,

1418
01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:09,400
Speaker 4: and God blessed they haven't. Yes, but if, like I think,

1419
01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:12,439
Speaker 4: Etsy you can find some ridiculous stuff, so find out

1420
01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:16,120
Speaker 4: who what kind of music they're into, favorite movie actor,

1421
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 4: Like you can get an embroidered, crocheted pillow of like

1422
01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:24,440
Speaker 4: Steven Segall or something that Val Kilmer is Moses. But

1423
01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:26,680
Speaker 4: like you can get weird on Etsy and kind of

1424
01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:28,760
Speaker 4: keep this thing going. And then you're like, oh, well,

1425
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:30,680
Speaker 4: I guess we have different definitions of milestone.

1426
01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:34,560
Speaker 3: There we go. I'm sorry, Yeah, just shift the direction completely. Yeah,

1427
01:03:34,680 --> 01:03:39,920
Speaker 3: Red Herring, beautiful Ashley has gotten perfect advice. We've saved

1428
01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:44,760
Speaker 3: the family and maybe Toronto as well. Yeah, who knows

1429
01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:47,080
Speaker 3: what could have happened to the whole city of Toronto

1430
01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:52,720
Speaker 3: would have crumbled started with this beautiful Ashley, don't write

1431
01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:53,120
Speaker 3: back in.

1432
01:03:54,560 --> 01:03:54,760
Speaker 4: Eric.

1433
01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:57,400
Speaker 3: I've had such a wonderful time with you, so fun.

1434
01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:00,000
Speaker 4: I'm just so sorry for my agregious bringing to the gift,

1435
01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:02,800
Speaker 4: but I feel like you were just so gracious.

1436
01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:04,960
Speaker 3: But now I get to just dine on pastry and

1437
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:08,640
Speaker 3: read Val Kilmer as the tornado blasts through my home.

1438
01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:10,720
Speaker 4: Please and if your power goes out, this is not

1439
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:13,280
Speaker 4: a hollow offer. By the way, you got carp Blanche

1440

Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, we'll drive by our house.

1444
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:20,880
Speaker 3: There we go.
