20

Speaker 4: How you doing I do?

21
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: I do love to send my friends NFTs, which I

22
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: call nice friendly checks.

23
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 3: It was funny.

24
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 2: I was going somewhere the other day, Karen. I were

25
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,559
Speaker 2: in the car and I thought of you because there's

26
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 2: a sign for this really cool bar up the street,

27
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 2: and on the outside of the sign, on the outside

28
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: of the building, the sign says no biggots, no.

29
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 3: Like trans fobs, no homophobes or something like that.

30
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 2: But something that happened to the sign where like the

31
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 2: top corner had gotten loose, so it folded in, and

32
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 2: it made it seem like the no didn't say that no,

33
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 2: so it like there was no no there.

34
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 3: So he just said biggests.

35
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 2: Homophobes and racist or something, and I was like, oh, man,

36
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 2: Mike would get a kick out of this, because you

37
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 2: know he likes words.

38
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, the the houses like that that

39
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: have the like coexist numberstickers, but the equivalent of like

40
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: in this house, you know, we don't accept racism, merchran phobia,

41
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: homophobia or sexism. But it's like the pushback to that,

42
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: they're like, in this house, we only accept racism, homophobia.

43
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 4: If you love anyone else, get out here.

44
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 5: I don't belong here.

45
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 3: No love.

46
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 2: We only love the haters. We're insistent upon it. We're

47
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 2: inclusive of hate. But that's it, that's it.

48
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,239
Speaker 4: But yeah, the hate.

49
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I was just saying, like, oh, Michael, get

50
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 2: a kick out of this. I remember one I saw

51
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 2: another time, I saw a sign over a shoe repair place,

52
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 2: but the shoe repair sign was broken, and I sent

53
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 2: that picture to Mike because I was.

54
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 3: Like, what is the signal here?

55
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 2: You guys can't even get your own your sign needs repair?

56
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 3: How good can your shoe work be?

57
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:50,799
Speaker 5: That's a great question.

58
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 3: But what's been going on with you?

59
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:54,119
Speaker 6: Man?

60
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 2: I know we check in every month, so I know

61
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 2: probably lessons goes on within those periods of time, but

62
00:02:59,120 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 2: things still can.

63
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 4: Have things can happen and have happened.

64
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 1: I'll tell you yesterday I finished I think we probably

65
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: talked a little bit about the Absolute DC comics a Batman,

66
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: Absolute Batman Volume two with like new Bane and then

67
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: all the creative villain origin stories. It's just like I

68
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: want it's an experience that like when I finished it,

69
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: I was like, I want to just keep having it.

70
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: And it's like a weird thing because you can't with

71
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: a comic or you know, like with anything with a

72
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: with a work of art, you can look at it.

73
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: If it's like a painting, you can be like I

74
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: was just gonna keep looking at this painting. With like

75
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: a song, you can listen to it over and over,

76
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: and you can like read a thing over and over,

77
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: but you just you can't keep having the exact experience

78
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: over it. But I'm like, but I want to just

79
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: it felt it was such a cool, creative, artistic experience.

80
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,920

98
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: my first Sondheim musical that I loved when I was

99
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,480

Speaker 1: I mean, this just happened last week, but I really

103
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: feel like I'm gonna remember because I laughed more than

104
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: I usually, like a higher quantity of higher quality laughs.

105
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: Like half an hour in he played like he has

106
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: a full band on stage. He has like a six

107
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,160
Speaker 1: or seven piece band. There's like a trombonis who also

108
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,840
Speaker 1: plays the trumpet. There's you know, drummer, keyboard like and

109
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 1: they're all great musicians and funny improvisers and he does

110
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: like bits with them. He'll be like, give me, give

111
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: me something nice that's not patriotic, go, you know, and

112
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,239
Speaker 1: then they'll do something for a minute and he'll stop.

113
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: Like it's impossible to describe, you know how, like the

114
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 1: most potential sacred things.

115
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 4: You're like, what is God?

116
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: You're like, well, that's hard to get into, you know,

117
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: the the ineffable, like oh it's love?

118
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 4: What is love?

119
00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 6: You know?

120
00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 4: Baby, don't hurt me? Like, but.

121
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: Beautiful, it's just a beautiful, incredible artistic experience. And I

122
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: met a friend about it afterwards. I was like, I

123
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: just saw this incredible show. I rarely go to comedy shows,

124
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,159
Speaker 1: or I don't comedy shows.

125
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 4: I do. I go to a lot of comedy shows

126
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 4: that I'm on right. Yeah, you know.

127
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 3: You're there the work when you go.

128
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 2: When you go to comedy shows as a comedian, do

129
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 2: you take in the other comics or cause I know

130
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 2: in New York you can go up multiple times in

131
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 2: the night, so like, is not real?

132
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 3: Is it really a.

133
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 2: Situation where it's like I'll sit around, enjoy this hour

134
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 2: and have comedy, then I'll go perform at the next one.

135
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 3: I enjoy that hour and a half. Or do you

136
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 3: just pop in pop out?

137
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:41,720
Speaker 4: Great question.

138
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: I think that more often I pop in pop out

139
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: unless there's a particular reason, like if there's like a

140
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: good friend on the show, or like somebody who's comedy

141
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: I specifically love, then I'll absolutely like I'll go to

142
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: Gary Goleman shows that I'm not on right because I like,

143
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 1: if I don't have anything going on that night, I'll

144
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 1: be like, I can go hang out at this place,

145
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 1: and Gary is my friend, and also sometimes he'll put

146
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: me on the show. But even if he doesn't, I'm like,

147
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: I'm happy to take that in When I'm on a show. Yeah,

148
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: it's it's kind of not hit or miss. But last

149
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: night I was hosting a show, so I did watch

150
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 1: the other five or so comedians, and I was happy

151
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: too because, like the it was closed out by Dan Natterman,

152
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: who is super funny, and like, I don't see him

153
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: all the time, so it's nice to see someone who

154
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: I've been This is like the the perfect storm of

155
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 1: me watching is number one. I was hosting, so I

156
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:42,679
Speaker 1: had to stay a comedian who I think is super

157
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: funny that I haven't seen in a long time, who

158
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: is also a friend, you know, so in those situations

159
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: like my friend Liz Glazer, who I met, I think

160
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: you've had her on the show, right.

161
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 3: No, I don't know if we had. No, Yeah we have,

162
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 3: Yeah we have Liz Laison.

163
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: Yes, I've certainly recommended you both too each each other.

164
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: And she is one of my dearest friends. And like,

165
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 1: if we're on a show together, a thing that I'll

166
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: do is I'll often like watch her and like take

167
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: notes in my texts of and text her like I

168
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: like this, I like that, I got an idea for this,

169
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: if you want to do that.

170
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 4: But mostly just like this is funny.

171
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: That's funny, like you know, which is in some ways

172
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 1: taking me out of the moment for a moment to

173
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: you know, show gratitude for and celebrate and appreciate the moment.

174
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 4: And I try to, you know, like there's no such

175
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 4: thing as multitasking.

176
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: It's only you know, mono tasking really fast backward brain

177
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 1: literally like this task, that task, and I'm watching, I'm enjoying.

178
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 4: I'm telling you about it. Oh what was that one?

179
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 6: You know?

180
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,200
Speaker 1: And it's it's the you know, the issue that I

181
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: have when I'm on mushrooms as well, where I'm like,

182
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm enjoying the moment, and I want my future self

183
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: to remember this moment, so I better stop, stop the

184
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: hold the moment, hold them.

185
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 4: Jot down. But yeah, so that that show was incredible.

186
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 2: The time is it called something that's just Todd Glass

187
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 2: show The Event of a life, the Event.

188
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 3: Of life time.

189
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, that's cool, man, Well check it out if

190
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 2: you guys are out there. I in the time that

191
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 2: we've talked since we last talk, I've caught up completely

192
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 2: on Absolute Batman as well, because you know, when I

193
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 2: first saw the cover art, I look, I was very

194
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 2: close minded. I was like, uh, you guys say this

195
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 2: is great, but this just looks like superheroes on steroids

196
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 2: to me.

197
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 3: And I think Basebo.

198
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 2: Baseball told us something about superheroes and records and steroids.

199
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 3: And I know all of these.

200
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 2: Comics will be disavowed by the Comics Hall of Fame

201
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 2: one day when we catch out catch up Batman and

202
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 2: Superman on these peds. But I got enough good recommendations,

203
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 2: including yours, that I went and checked it out and

204
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 2: it is really good and it's but it is so

205
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 2: like weird that it's it's weird because you talked about

206
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 2: comics and how you wish you could go back again.

207
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 2: I feel like comics is constantly going back again. Absolute

208
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 2: Batman is like, what if we just told a story again,

209
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 2: but this time a different type of way and more

210
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 2: badass and uh, you know, and and what if Bain

211
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 2: came back? We all know Bane from the This ain't

212
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 2: j Dad is Bin.

213
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 3: This is absolute Bane. He's cuckoo bananas.

214
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 2: So I feel like that is what comics is is

215
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 2: that's all trying to forget that we already know this

216
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 2: and go, oh, the mom died in this, when not

217
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 2: the dad or whatever?

218
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like not to spoil too much, but in

219
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: every one of the absolute DC stories, they change at

220
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: least one thing and then everything else ripples forth from that,

221
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: or they change a bunch of other stuff as well.

222
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 4: Like I'm reading, you know, the Superman.

223
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: One, he's not a baby, he's he gets to Earth

224
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: as he's like a teenager. Whereas Batman, it's not exactly

225
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: that both of his parents died like they did in

226
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: the original. Wonder Woman is raised in the underworld. She's

227
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: under Woman, you know, uh just meant being here. It's

228
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 1: really it's really uh creatively inspirational.

229
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 4: Also, speaking of comics, I think I can't.

230
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: Last time I was here, I was about to go

231
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 1: on Comic Con the cruise.

232
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 4: Yes year I did go. I forgot if I got

233
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 4: How was it? It was really awesome.

234
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 1: Reenie and I got flown down to Tampa and we

235
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: went out for four days. We were supposed to hit

236
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 1: the Bahamas, but there was some weather that prevented that,

237
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: so we.

238
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 3: It was a perfect storm. Just like yeah, just like

239
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 3: you seeing Gary Goman, what was the.

240
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,199
Speaker 7: Coolest costume you see, Mike, Cause you know, with stuff

241
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 7: like that, people wear their costumes.

242
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: Oh, absolutely so, Renie dressed as a character from the

243
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 1: show The Leftovers.

244
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 4: You guys watch that.

245
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,839
Speaker 3: I watched The Leftovers? Yeah, what character did she go as?

246
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 6: Though?

247
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 2: Because I I love The Leftovers, but I can't think

248
00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 2: of it in characters like I just think of it

249
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 2: as like, do people went.

250
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 3: Through a thing?

251
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 1: Yes, So I think you'll understand when I say she

252
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: went as one of the members of the cult remnant.

253
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 3: Yes, that is a good costume.

254
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 2: That is so good.

255
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:13,719
Speaker 3: Shout and shout out that.

256
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,319
Speaker 2: Damon lindel Off, because I did not like the way

257
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 2: Lost ended, and I was very upset, probably unreas obviously

258
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 2: unreasonably so you should never really be that upset up

259
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,319
Speaker 2: the TV show, but I was very upset in yeah,

260
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 2: because they I felt like they lied and they got

261
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 2: to the end and they were like, it's really about

262
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,200
Speaker 2: the journey, guys, this is about.

263
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 3: The friends we made. I was like, you promised there

264
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 3: would be an answer.

265
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 2: But then he did The Leftovers and I was like, Oh,

266
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 2: he's gonna this is the guy who doesn't end things

267
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:43,959
Speaker 2: well and this whole show is a mystery. I'm gonna

268
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 2: watch it get to the end. He's not gonna answer

269
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 2: the question, and I'm gonna be mad at Damon lindall

270
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 2: Off all over again. It'll be my fault because I

271
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 2: knew this time. But you know what, I believed in him.

272
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 2: I gave him a second chance, and he killed it

273
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 2: on The Leftovers. It's one of the best shows ever,

274
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 2: and he killed it on Watchman.

275
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 3: So like, you know what, Dame lindel Off, you all right?

276
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: In my book, he learned and just wait until his

277
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: next show, which is going to be called The Lost Overs.

278
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 3: Oh it was all a long way.

279
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 4: Do you know two things?

280
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 1: One, I really do think he learned from the Lost

281
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: experience of like and planned out The Leftovers more like

282
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: the ending is still like, you know, kind of there's

283
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 1: ambiguity mystery, but it's also very satisfying, like especially like

284
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: when they start that last season and you're like, what, yes,

285
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 1: like it really I feel like he's like he was

286
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: trolling us with like trying to trick us into being like,

287
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 1: is this going to be another Lost debacle? But they

288
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 1: should have called that show Found because it was really

289
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 1: in some ways like the anti Lost. It really really

290
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: was like what Larry David did with like people were

291
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: some disappointed in I think the Seinfeld ending was great

292
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways.

293
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 4: I think it was really cool.

294
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,080
Speaker 1: I understand why some people felt otherwise, but I really

295
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: feel like he nailed it.

296
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 4: Like whatever you thought, whether you like it was very it.

297
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 2: Was very high it was very high concept, and I

298
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 2: liked it. They picked something that was meta and broke

299
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 2: kind of that fourth wallish phil I like that kind

300
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 2: of stuff because, like I think a lot of times

301
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 2: people think they want a perfect, great like ending that

302
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,760
Speaker 2: just completely wraps it up in a circle. But I

303
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 2: think some of the more memorable endings are the ones

304
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 2: where you're like, wait what you know, like the ending

305
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 2: of Sopranos, or you're like what was that? But I

306
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 2: always remember that ending for the rest of my life.

307
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 2: I don't remember that ending way more than if like

308
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 2: he walked in the garage and some guy just shot

309
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 2: him and he was like, oh, yeah, okay, that's the

310
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 2: end of story.

311
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 4: Oh absolutely.

312
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 1: And so when when Larry David ended Curb the way

313
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: that he did, as you know, a twenty five year

314
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: later callback to.

315
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 3: The ciel Or a TV show, like.

316
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 4: It was really really beautiful.

317
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 1: I will also say, uh ms Barnes is in the

318
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: comments I'm on the island, oh by myself.

319
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 4: I loved how Lost ended.

320
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 1: I also like it absolutely like brain wise didn't like Saw.

321
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 1: It didn't give everything that it seemed like it was

322
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: promising it would like what did those numbers mean?

323
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 4: We never know? Who knows? But heart wise like, I

324
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 4: did it well, there was satisfying.

325
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,320
Speaker 3: Here's here's what happened, Here's what happened.

326
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 2: I don't so in hindsight, I don't necessarily think it's

327
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 2: the show that like lets you down. I think it's

328
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 2: the media around the show in our obsession with it,

329
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 2: because it was interviewing them and it was like, what

330
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 2: are you going to answer the question?

331
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 3: Are you what about this? What about that?

332
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 2: And that's how every interview ended up becoming for Lindelof

333
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 2: and Crewe, And so I can imagine as a creative

334
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 2: who's writing a product that is based on suspense, it

335
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 2: is probably very difficult to do those interviews without essentially

336
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 2: giving away everything. And then you're still coming up with

337
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 2: it some of it. So you're like, we have a plan,

338
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 2: we know what it's gonna be, but plans change over

339
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 2: the course of five six years that you take the

340
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 2: record things. So it didn't help that everybody was trying

341
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 2: to guess, and once the culture of guessing the show

342
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 2: got bigger than the show, with like forums and conversations,

343
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 2: It's almost like there was no right answer because everything

344
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: was gonna be something we had guessed, right.

345
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 3: I mean, there's not infinite.

346
00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 2: Stories, so it either would be something that didn't make

347
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 2: sense or would be something that we all guessed. And

348
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 2: I think they got to the end and they shouldn't

349
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 2: have done that two hour pre video.

350
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 3: Thing that was like, Gods, you gotta ansk questions.

351
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 2: If they should have never done that, if they just

352
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 2: go straight to here's the finale.

353
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 3: I feel like I would have.

354
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 2: I could probably go back and watch it now and

355
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 2: be like, oh no, because it actually hit the heart

356
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 2: narrative beats, not the it didn't hit the sci fi

357
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 2: narrative beats that maybe go a plus big will see

358
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,360
Speaker 2: it hit the like ah man, Jack got closure, Oh

359
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 2: this you know, him and his son found each other.

360
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 3: Whatever, like those type of things. Instead, I was just

361
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 3: mad because I was like, but what the polar bear

362
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 3: or whatever, and it just that didn't work.

363
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, absolutely, also Beef.

364
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 1: I feel like like I've heard stories of like people

365
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: filming things these days, like having fake scripts and then

366
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: you know, only having the crew there that they need,

367
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: so as few people as possible.

368
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 4: Yep.

369
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,360
Speaker 1: No, And but I do like that as big as

370
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: Seinfeld was, and there was all this speculation, there were

371
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: like fake scripts I think online of like and I

372
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: do think that one of the ways that ending was

373
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 1: so masterful was there were I think maybe if I

374
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: don't know if I'll remember all three, but there were

375
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: like three theories of what would happen. One was that

376
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: like Elaine and Seinfeld would get married or get back together.

377
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: One was that they'd all die in a plane crash,

378
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 1: and one was that their pilot that had gotten canceled

379
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 1: years earlier would get picked up and they would have

380
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: a happy ending. And I believe they were on a

381
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: plane on the way to sign a deal where their

382
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: pilot was gonna get picked up, and the plane hit

383
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 1: turbulence and was almost going down, so we're like, are

384
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: they gonna get the pilot?

385
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 4: Is the plane going to crash?

386
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: And while the plane was crashing, they were like, maybe

387
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 1: we should get married. I love you, And then the

388
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: plane didn't crash and they were like, never mind, we're

389
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 1: not gonna be together. And then instead of getting their pilot,

390
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,679
Speaker 1: they got their come up and yeah, so I was

391
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: like that was I mean, I feel like Larry David

392
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: was like the perfect person to like play the notes

393
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: of media, like because like, I know what you're going

394
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 1: to expect, and these are a lot of great options

395
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 1: and who if other people.

396
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 4: Thought like these these people just.

397
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: Deserve not to be happy because they don't want anyone

398
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:07,159
Speaker 1: else to be happy.

399
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 4: And but yeah, I think they did an incredible job.

400
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 1: Also, Karen, to answer your question from earlier, A great

401
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: costume that I saw on the ship on the Comic

402
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: Con cruise was somebody was dressed as a Tartis the

403
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: phone booth from Doctor Oh Wow Wow it was. It

404
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 1: was And they also had like a full size Tartis

405
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: like replica on on the ship. They had two of

406
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: the Doctor Who actors Arthur Darville and Alex Kingston were

407
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: two of the guests that were on board as well,

408
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 1: so there was like a big Doctor Who.

409
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, a couple of things about the Comic Con cruise.

410
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 2: So you're on a cruise, are you're stuck on the ship?

411
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 2: I know there are those cons A lot of times

412
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 2: people are like selling autographs and stuff like that. I

413
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 2: wonder if it would be weird to like sell also

414
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,360
Speaker 2: my autograph and then just see him at the buffet

415
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 2: like two days later, you know.

416
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:09,239
Speaker 4: What I mean. I'll tell you this.

417
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,719
Speaker 1: So one of the people who was on the ship

418
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 1: was Jason Isaac.

419
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 4: You know that guy.

420
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, he plays Draco Malfoy's father and Harry Potter in

421
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: the movies Lucius Malfoy. He's, you know, the father on

422
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 1: one of the season the recent season of White Lotus.

423
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: You know, he's He's been in a lot of movies,

424
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: a lot of TV shows.

425
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 4: He's a big celebrity. He's a big star. He's on

426
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 4: the ship.

427
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: He's like a nice man to talk to, Like Reeny

428
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 1: and I got to have like a meal or two

429
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: with him, and you we would see him around the ship,

430
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,679
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna tell you here's like a poignant moment.

431
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: It's like all of the celebrities on the ship were

432
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 1: like there was specific like hour or two hour chunks

433
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: where you could stand in line and pay for an autograph.

434
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: And they were all autographs for sale, you know, could

435
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: some people might have been one hundred bucks, some might

436
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: have been fifty bucks.

437
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 4: Do you get you know, a photo or whatever?

438
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: And I was I was out at the pool deck

439
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 1: and there's like a little like foods a snack area there,

440
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,919
Speaker 1: like a snack bar, and he was sitting there chatting

441
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,879
Speaker 1: with someone and I then was chatting with them, and

442
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 1: then this guy comes over and he's like, sir, look

443
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 1: you you dropped your It was either his wallet or

444
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: his key card that he needs to like, you know, get.

445
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 4: Into everywhere, get off the ship, get on the ship.

446
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 4: And I think it was his key card.

447
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: And it was like, sir, you and he was like,

448
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 1: oh my god, thank you so much to this guy.

449
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 1: And then the guy was kind of just standing there

450
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 1: and he was like, oh, can I did you wanna chat?

451
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 4: Did you wanna ask anything?

452
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 1: And the guy was like, I was wondering if I

453
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: could get your autograph and he was and he's like,

454
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: I'm really sorry that I can't do it now contractually

455
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: where you're only allowed to give autographs or I think

456
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:55,879
Speaker 1: he maybe yes for a photo?

457
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 4: Yes for he is like, can we take a selfie?

458
00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 4: He asked for your selfie?

459
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, we can only do photos in the designated

460
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: times because and he's like, that's in my contract.

461
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 4: And it's in part because if you can understand.

462
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: If if we were you know, not assured, like if

463
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: people are always coming up to us as the ship, like,

464
00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,239
Speaker 1: we would be mobbed, and it would be impossible for

465
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 1: us to really have you know, like a human experience

466
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:27,200
Speaker 1: as well, because even though we are movie in movies

467
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 1: as well, and he's like, so there, they'd be very

468
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 1: they'd be unable to attract celebrities to be on the

469
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 1: ship if they can guarantee that you would have the

470
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:37,239
Speaker 1: time too.

471
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 4: You know, I'll happily have a conversation with you.

472
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 1: You know, I'll happily like you know, interact, but just

473
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: specifically can't do an autograph, can't do a photo except

474
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 1: that's that's.

475
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 3: Gotta be so awkward and weird.

476
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 5: Yea.

477
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 6: And the guy was like, but I saved you, right,

478
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 6: He's like, actually, my key car Pumpoget thought out.

479
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 1: I really appreciate you saving. I'm sorry, I cannot contractu.

480
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 5: Ohole pole thing.

481
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 7: And to an extent, I understand that it's just like

482
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 7: a lot of times, like I want to say, normal people,

483
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 7: we don't experience that because we're not being consistently mobbed

484
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 7: or people consistently asking us for something like that all

485
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 7: of the time.

486
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 5: So for us.

487
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 7: We think that that's an abnormal standard, but.

488
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:31,959
Speaker 5: To an extent, I can understand it.

489
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 7: Like I remember when me and Roderick did one of

490
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 7: our very very very.

491
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 5: First live shows in DC.

492
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 7: We had got off the stage and people started talking.

493
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 7: I was sudden the line started for me. It confused

494
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 7: me and Roderick because we was at a con. But

495
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 7: I've never been on the on the side of like

496
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 7: being a pan being like a panelist on the con.

497
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 5: So all of a sudden the line started for me,

498
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 5: and I was like, okay, a line is for me.

499
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,199
Speaker 7: I have a very confusing And then somebody walked up

500
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,120
Speaker 7: there was like how much you charged for your autograph?

501
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 5: I was like, I know, I don't understand. Why would

502
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 5: I charge you for it?

503
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 7: Like in my Brian I was like, why would I

504
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 7: charge you for autograph and a picture?

505
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 3: Like I was like, I'm not that important.

506
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, we took We took pictures with everybody and autographs

507
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 2: for everybody for free.

508
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 3: But we didn't know the rules of the game or

509
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 3: any of that stuff.

510
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 2: But that's to me, it's the cruise part that makes

511
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 2: it more awkward, because I feel like it's a con.

512
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 2: You know, I'm getting in my car to leave. Whether

513
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 2: this is a good experience or a bad experience. I'm home,

514
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 2: you know, but if I have to like go back

515
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 2: to my room for four days, man like you, that's

516
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 2: you really got to help.

517
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 3: Everybody's cool, you know.

518
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 2: The other thing I was thinking too is like comic

519
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 2: cons conferences have like this, and all the nerd ones

520
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 2: have like the weird like reputation and like these stinky,

521
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 2: sweaty nerds and they're gonna be in their costumes and

522
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 2: it's funky in there. But also cruisers have the reputation

523
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 2: of like ooh, sexy, sexy time.

524
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 3: All these hot people stuck together. What's gonna get crazy

525
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 3: with all this alcohol? So what what does it win?

526
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 3: Which one's out?

527
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 2: Is it the man these are socially awkward nerds or

528
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 2: the hey man, this cruise time, whatever happens on international waters,

529
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 2: Captain America can't stop it.

530
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a great question.

531
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 1: I do think that it's first I'll say there also

532
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 1: were some like security people that you know, the upper

533
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 1: echelon of you know of stars had access to that

534
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 1: would like walk them to their events or meals or

535
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: get them you know, secret route to like right, like

536
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,199
Speaker 1: when I would perform in the big theater and I

537
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: just like would walk in the door of the theater

538
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: and they'd be like, all right, walk down these stairs

539
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 1: and then there's backstage. But then I was waiting at

540
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 1: an event like to see like other people show up.

541
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 1: And then I was like I was there, like I

542
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 1: did my event. I was in the theater. I was like,

543
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: nobody else is here. Then eventually I was like, they

544
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,439
Speaker 1: gotta walk past me. There's only one way to get backstage.

545
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 1: But then all of a sudden, they the movie stars

546
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 1: come out from backstage. I'm like, there are secret ways

547
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 1: backstage that I don't know. I do think it's sort

548
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: of like I mean the question, there's sort of like

549
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: an honor code, an honor system of.

550
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 4: Like hey, everyone be cool.

551
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,600
Speaker 1: You know it just if it says don't take photos,

552
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,320
Speaker 1: don't take like you know, nobody can is gonna like

553
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 1: tackle you if you like on the slide take a photo,

554
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 1: but like they're like you signed up for the thing,

555
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: like you know, please, like you be cool, Like just

556
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 1: everyone be cool. But and as to your question of

557
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,239
Speaker 1: you know which end of the spectrum, I really think

558
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 1: it's like a nebula of everything, like There was absolutely

559
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: a few people that if you're like, uh, what imagine

560
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:46,760
Speaker 1: a stereotype of a comic con attendee, and absolutely a.

561
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,120
Speaker 4: Few of those folks were there a few converse.

562
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: I overheard some conversations that I was like, this would

563
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,199
Speaker 1: be like you couldn't write it more authentically than this.

564
00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 4: But then also there's you know, there's like families.

565
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: There, people who you know, you're a fan of nerdy

566
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: stuff and you're also socially awkward.

567
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, cool, that's all I was gonna say.

568
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 3: I was gonna say cool. Yeah.

569
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 5: I don't think.

570
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:16,120
Speaker 1: There's the whole spectrum. So absolutely, I'm sure there were

571
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,480
Speaker 1: definitely people who I feel like the fact that the costumes.

572
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: There was like one day that was like pajama Day,

573
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: and there was one day that was like official cosplay Day.

574
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,639
Speaker 1: There's absolutely people cosplaying the whole time, right, there were

575
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 1: professional cosplayers and a bunch of people, you know, everyone

576
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: who wanted to could bring whatever costume you want.

577
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 4: But there was like one day where there was like

578
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 4: a contest.

579
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: It's like one day was the official like show up here,

580
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 1: show up there, and there's like a catwalk and like.

581
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 2: You know that sounds super cool man and also like

582
00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 2: all the Cosway stuff, a lot of that stuff is

583
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: sexy anyway, Like I feel like sexy and nerd kind

584
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 2: of like changed in my lifetime. Like there's a lot

585
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 2: of sexy nerves now, but like when I was coming up,

586
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,640
Speaker 2: it's like sexy was the opposite of nerve, but now like, no,

587
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 2: this we've made nerd cool enough that people are like,

588
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 2: guess what, I've been hot this whole time, and I'll

589
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 2: read comic books.

590
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 1: It used to be that if you were wearing glasses,

591
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: you were definitely a nerd and couldn't be sexy. But

592
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: then they glasses up. Oh my god, it was sexy Superman.

593
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 3: The whole time. What happened to Mike Kevin? He was

594
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:27,119
Speaker 3: just here.

595
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,359
Speaker 1: I have a new movie I'm working on. It's about

596
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: a person who's gorgeous who doesn't have glasses, who maybe

597
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 1: they shouldn't be gorgeous, but they don't. Definitely they don't

598
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 1: have glasses. And then eventually at the end of the

599
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: movie they go through a makeover where they put their

600
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: glasses on and they're more appealing or they can live

601
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: their life without people hounding them. And the movie is

602
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: called That's.

603
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 3: All she oh, okay, that the reverse of that I

604
00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 3: was gonna say. That's how she wrote no.

605
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 5: No, And that's how she sees.

606
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 3: Because she couldn't see. The plot twist is she was nearsighted.

607
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 2: So the whole movie she's basically walking around with everything

608
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 2: out of folks.

609
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 5: You can't see nothing.

610
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 3: At the end she's like, Oh, I'm hot.

611
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 2: I didn't read really that's what I look like.

612
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 1: I will say this also, this is how you two

613
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 1: the experience that you had where you became sudden celebrities

614
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: at that event that you were at where people started

615
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 1: forming a line. Here's how you're like Robert Redford. My understanding,

616
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: I read a thing once that he was grateful when

617
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: he started getting old enough that he could walk around

618
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: and like literally like wasn't mobbed all the time, Like

619
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 1: I understand in comedy even like I've worked with comedians

620
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 1: who you know, sometimes will if there's three hundred people

621
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 1: at a show, they'll go out and they'll like meet

622
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 1: and greet every one of those people, take a photo,

623
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: sign something, and be there for an hour after the show.

624
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: And I know people sometimes the same people sometimes other

625
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 1: people that are like I don't I'm.

626
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 4: Not selling anything.

627
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 1: I'm you know, I want to rest in between shows,

628
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: Like I'll invite a friend if they're here backstage, but

629
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: I'm just not gonna go out. And then other people

630
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 1: will do like a paid VIP thing where you're like okay,

631
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,479
Speaker 1: Like for anyone who wants to pay whatever, ten twenty

632
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: extra or whatever it is, you get the show that

633
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: you want and you get to hang out for fifteen minutes,

634
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: a half hour, whatever it is, beforehand or after, and

635
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: I get I think that it's all like, it all

636
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 1: makes sense.

637
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 4: I understand why anyone would want.

638
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: It, Like from the perspective of like I'm a human being,

639
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna charge for my time to I'm a

640
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: human being with limited time, I'm going to charge for

641
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: my time or I don't want to charge for my time,

642
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: so I just won't do anything like it all it

643
00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 1: all makes sense.

644
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've done all of them with our own live events.

645
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,320
Speaker 3: I think we've had every single scenario.

646
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 2: But also you've been you know, torn around going to

659
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,680
Speaker 2: very platonically jealous of me, not of me getting to

660
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 2: see Mike multiple times.

661
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,960

677
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 3: Like, oh no, what it's time for you to leave

678
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 3: this through.

679
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: Yes, But to answer your question, Rod you now know

680
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 1: about the future, but here's what happened in the recent past.

681
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 4: I did.

682
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: I think two days after we last spoke, Rene and

683
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: I flew down to Florida and got on that cruise ship.

684
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 1: We got back a few days later, and then the

685
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 1: following weekend, I was supposed to have a bunch of

686
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: shows in New York, and I got sick and so

687
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 1: like sick enough that I canceled shows for like two

688
00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 1: or three.

689
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 4: Days and then got back out there.

690
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: Had some more shows in New York, and then the

691
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 1: final week of February, I flew to Phoenix, Arizona. I

692
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 1: performed at a club in that area called the It's

693
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 1: called the Stir Crazy Comedy Club, which I think is

694
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: a fun name, and it's unlike a lot of different

695
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 1: comedy club names.

696
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 4: You got your chuckle huts and.

697
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: Laugh factories and improvs and funny bones.

698
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 4: I I don't think, because that's a really old movie.

699
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 7: You have to be able to even know that that

700
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 7: was the movie.

701
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 5: So I was like, is it based off the movie?

702
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe they're a fan of that movie. But for me,

703
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 4: I just always helped.

704
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: I couldn't help thinking that it was just like an

705
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 1: Asian restaurant like some sort of stir fried place. But

706
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 1: but it was.

707
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 4: But yeah, it was, it was really it was, man,

708
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:52,200
Speaker 4: it was.

709
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 2: That would actually be a cool That would be a

710
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 2: cool fusion restaurant, like stir craze. Like they just give

711
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 2: you two different dishes, like hey, here's General Sawy's chicken

712
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 2: and here's some curry you stirred.

713
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 3: We serve it.

714
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 4: But the only rule is it has to be crazy.

715
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it has to be sterbul and it has to

716
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,880
Speaker 3: be crazy. Yeah, we don't give a damn. We just

717
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 3: have a list of you mix it, you know.

718
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh I want a margarita, but also I would

719
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 2: like some pudding. It's like, well that's crazy.

720
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 5: Here you go.

721
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 1: One time I was on a plane, like twenty years ago,

722
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 1: and it was at a time I mean, I guess

723
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 1: it's maybe similar to now, Like you know, it used

724
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 1: to be they gave you food more regularly on a plane.

725
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 4: Like now it's like only on like a longer flight

726
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,400
Speaker 4: and only if you're a certain seas.

727
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 1: But it used to be I feel like everyone on

728
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,319
Speaker 1: the plane got a meal, even like flying just a

729
00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: couple hours.

730
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 4: And I so it was.

731
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 1: The time I was, you know, either I'm vegan now,

732
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: I was at least vegetarian at the time, so I'd

733
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,440
Speaker 1: ordered the special vegetarian or vegan meal, and I remember

734
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:04,280
Speaker 1: the eel that came was described as it was either

735
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,040
Speaker 1: one of two things. I legitimately don't remember which one

736
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 1: it was, and you'll understand why, but I remember it

737
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 1: was either a burrito that came with marinara sauce or

738
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,279
Speaker 1: it was a cal zone that came with salsa. It

739
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 1: was definitely not a culturally like, uh, sort of aligned combination.

740
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: It was for sure an Italian and a Mexican fusion situation.

741
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 1: They're like, you got you want some tomato sauce that

742
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 1: doesn't go with the thing that you got here you go,

743
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 1: but yeah, so that's fusion born.

744
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 2: Then fuse Fusion restaurants are so interesting because, like you know,

745
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 2: a lot of times they're hidden, like.

746
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, they have to write kind of fusion.

747
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 3: We have a place.

748
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 2: Called me et O Metal Pub, which you's in the cut.

749
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:56,239
Speaker 3: It's in South Caro.

750
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 2: You just would never it's in the It's like a

751
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 2: strip mologe, Like there's the strip mall part that's like

752
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,799
Speaker 2: a Walmart in all these stores and then it's off

753
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 2: to the side, and it's not next to either other

754
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,760
Speaker 2: other restaurants, Like it's like next to a tanning place

755
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 2: right and next you know.

756
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 3: Which is next to a tire shop. It's just it's weird.

757
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 2: We just stopped there one day because it was like, Oh, man,

758
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,359
Speaker 2: is anything even open over here?

759
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 3: I guess this.

760
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 2: Place and it's like Korean barbecue and Southern barbecue but combined.

761
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 2: And I was like, why isn't why hasn't everyone been

762
00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 2: making this, Why wasn't there a line out the door?

763
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,760
Speaker 3: Why do we have to discover this place?

764
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 2: Like it was like the train that Harry Potter and

765
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,759
Speaker 2: school or whatever you got. But it is weird because

766
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 2: but at the same time, I remember we also had

767
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:43,480
Speaker 2: a fusion restaurant and went out of business, and it

768
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 2: was Cajun New Orleans food and Japanese food and it

769
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 2: was terrible.

770
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:51,799
Speaker 3: It was so bad.

771
00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 7: That's a fusion you do not want, like like not

772
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,040
Speaker 7: to say you don't want it, but you didn't want.

773
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 2: No, No, you can say you didn't want it because

774
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 2: it was like gumbo with ramen and stuff, and it

775
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 2: was like, uh, that's that seemed better on paper than

776
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 2: what then whatever you guys Ai up and that me

777
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 2: and you in the back.

778
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 4: That is confusion. Confusion.

779
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,799
Speaker 3: I did feel conned, Yes I did.

780
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a con And here's the thing is, just

781
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 1: because you combine two things doesn't mean you're going to

782
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: like it. Peanut butter and jelly incredible, peanut butter and football.

783
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 4: Not right?

784
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:34,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, I bet I've told you this before. I wonder

785
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 1: if I tell you this every time I'm here? But

786
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 1: do you remember Rod? Have you ever read I think

787
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: you've read more comics than Karen Karen. I'll ask you

788
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:43,160
Speaker 1: as well.

789
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 4: Have you read or heard of Marvel Two in one

790
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:47,759
Speaker 4: or Marvel Team Up?

791
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,280
Speaker 2: Yes, I've heard of them. I wasn't a huge reader

792
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 2: of them, though, so when I.

793
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 1: Was starting out reading comics as a teenager, I loved

794
00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: Marvel Team Up because it was always two characters. Like,

795
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 1: you know, you have to hear of your Spider Man comic,

796
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: you got your whole comic, you got your Captain America.

797
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: But Marvel Team Up was almost always Spider Man, if

798
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,399
Speaker 1: not in the beginning, but Spider Man with somebody else.

799
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,879
Speaker 4: And you're like, incredible two. I only got to get

800
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:13,719
Speaker 4: one comic.

801
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,399
Speaker 1: And I get two heroes, and Marvel two and one,

802
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: same deal, except was almost always the thing from Fantastic

803
00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:23,879
Speaker 1: four and somebody else. And here's the thing about this

804
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,040
Speaker 1: not originally intended punt accepted.

805
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:30,839
Speaker 2: You know, well, that was fantastic for what you were

806
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 2: going for.

807
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:35,799
Speaker 4: Out of my way is like they say, I'm Golf four.

808
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 4: That's a fantastic four through Like every once in a while,

809
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,279
Speaker 4: I feel like I'll I will I. When I was

810
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 4: a kid, I would see.

811
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 1: A comic book that on the cover was like, oh

812
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:52,640
Speaker 1: my god, finally together for the first time, two characters

813
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,239
Speaker 1: that you've never cared about.

814
00:38:54,000 --> 00:39:04,840
Speaker 4: Separately and Slapstick and Toxic Avenger. I'm like, okay.

815
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:08,279
Speaker 2: It was just so weird that this restaurant couldn't get

816
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 2: it right, like and I and I get why. On

817
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:14,600
Speaker 2: paper it would have like there's Cajun food, people love

818
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 2: Cajun food, Japanese food, people love Japanese food, Like I

819
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,439
Speaker 2: get it. And it's it's like every time we tried

820
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 2: to mean it was different. And in a way, it

821
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,839
Speaker 2: was like seeing a stand up comedian work on their

822
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 2: hour over the course of a year, because it's like

823
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,400
Speaker 2: we go back and they're like, okay, all right, y'all

824
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:37,240
Speaker 2: wasn't feeling the go for the gumbo ramen.

825
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 3: All right, we hear you, we hear you. How about this?

826
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 4: How about this?

827
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:45,359
Speaker 2: Uh sushimi mac and cheese And you're like, no, what, No, that.

828
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 3: Is also bad?

829
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,800
Speaker 5: Yes, that was and it was terrible.

830
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 4: They're like, what else is in the stews?

831
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 3: What else have we got in the bad?

832
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:56,279
Speaker 2: I never run out of idea It come over to

833
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 2: your table to be like, what do you do for

834
00:39:58,320 --> 00:39:58,720
Speaker 2: a living?

835
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 4: What would you like to see? How don't if you

836
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 4: guys know?

837
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: This sort of reminds me that when you were talking

838
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,400
Speaker 1: about the one that you like and you're like, wow,

839
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 1: why isn't there a line at the door. Why doesn't

840
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 1: everyone know about this? And it's kind of like the

841
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: way that there are hidden gems of comedians of musicians

842
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 1: like just because like there's popular comedians who aren't our taste,

843
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 1: and there's like little known, obscure artists who you're like, oh,

844
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 1: I wish everyone knew this person should be more successful

845
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 1: if there was any justice and meritocracy in the world.

846
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: But it's just that not everyone finds out about everything proportionally,

847
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: Like I just saw a thread today on threads where

848
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:43,800
Speaker 1: you find threads.

849
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 2: I thought you meant like in a tailor shop or

850
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 2: somebody I found a thread.

851
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 4: It was a phantom. I wanted threads could have been

852
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:58,799
Speaker 4: called ghost boussiers, which is there's a friend of mine.

853
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: Jason Zinnemann is a critic for The New York Times.

854
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 4: He covers comedy.

855
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 1: He has covered theater, and he posted this thread today

856
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 1: that just said there's a new comedy series starring Kevin Klein,

857
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 1: Laura Lenny, Tony Shaloub, Jessica Heckt, and it begins with

858
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 1: a New York Times theater critic getting attacked by a

859
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:22,560
Speaker 1: Shakespearean actor.

860
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 4: And I didn't know about it.

861
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 1: Culture's in a weird place right now, and I feel

862
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:28,800
Speaker 1: like my mom.

863
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,120
Speaker 4: Has these experiences where something she's like, there's.

864
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 1: A new show with an actor I love, and it's

865
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 1: a genre I like, like, why didn't anyone tell me?

866
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: Because it's like, it's not just there's not a mono

867
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:45,360
Speaker 1: culture where like everyone goes on you know, Carson or specific.

868
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 5: We don't have a unified thing.

869
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 7: A lot of people Fitter realized if you love a

870
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 7: certain age, they were things that where we all watched

871
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 7: it together as a community, like and if you didn't

872
00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 7: watch it, you will consider you will out of the

873
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 7: loop of whatever the conversations were.

874
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 5: But now everything is so algorithm with the algorithms.

875
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 7: And stuff specifically to you, not not not to people

876
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:11,879
Speaker 7: as a.

877
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:13,360
Speaker 5: Mask, but specifically to you.

878
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,360
Speaker 7: So what I like and my experiences and my taste

879
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 7: are gonna be I'm gonna have a completely different experience.

880
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 5: I'm gonna see completely.

881
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,919
Speaker 7: Different artists and like things that I probably should see

882
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 7: will never cross my path. They like, like, I won't

883
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 7: know anything about them unless I'm willing to go outside

884
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 7: of what the algorithm is telling me, which means you

885
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 7: have to do the effort now, And a lot of

886
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:36,480
Speaker 7: people don't want to do the effort.

887
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 5: They'd rather be not trying to fund it.

888
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 7: Consistently fed these things and they go, well, this must

889
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 7: be what I like and this is what the world is.

890
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 7: Then when they have conversations with other people, they'll be like, oh,

891
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 7: I didn't know you like.

892
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,320
Speaker 5: Such such, Well, yeah, I like such such and people.

893
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 7: When people actually interact with each other, they realize there

894
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 7: are things that kind of outside of the algorithm.

895
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:59,240
Speaker 2: I think also are our algorithms are so individually tailored

896
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:03,160
Speaker 2: to each other to our celles online because these computers

897
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:07,400
Speaker 2: and artificial intelligence and these recommendations, they've gotten so good.

898
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 2: You know, they know that they're so good now they

899
00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 2: subconsciously know. Like you say, you don't like blank, but

900
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 2: you stop scrolling every time you see blank, So we're

901
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 2: gonna show you more blank, even though it's making you crazy. So, like,

902
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 2: I think that's another reason we don't have like a

903
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:28,840
Speaker 2: mono culture or whatever. We're going so many places for content,

904
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 2: you know, I think after the pandemic when like all

905
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 2: the streaming services like we're Greenlight, We're green Light and everything.

906
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 2: We uh, so and so got a black show, we

907
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:39,919
Speaker 2: got a black show. So and so got a gay show.

908
00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 2: We got two gay shows.

909
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 4: Y'all got anime.

910
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 3: Everyone's got anime.

911
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 2: And it's like, oh, now, you guys kind of destroyed

912
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 2: the thing we had, which was I like anime.

913
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:51,200
Speaker 3: Oh what do you what do you watch?

914
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 2: Cartoon Network Adult Swim? Like, well, that's actually getting bigger,

915
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 2: like I'm saying, like it used to just be like

916
00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:02,320
Speaker 2: I watch Tunami on Cartoon Network.

917
00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 3: That's how I watch anime.

918
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 2: And or you know, you gotta go to buy it,

919
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 2: get it rented or something.

920
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,280
Speaker 3: Yes, now it's like you watch anime.

921
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I watch it on Amazon Prime, Netflix, Peacock, Hulu.

922
00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 3: Like none of us is watching the same stuff as

923
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 3: much as you used to.

924
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:18,520
Speaker 5: That's true.

925
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:23,160
Speaker 7: And as somebody of a certain age, I remember before

926
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 7: Cartoon Network it was really a big thing because I

927
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 7: love cartoons, but you could never watch it twenty four

928
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 7: to seven. So I remember when Cottoon Network was like

929
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 7: a premium premium channel.

930
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 5: Like like HBO.

931
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:37,319
Speaker 7: It wasn't like included in your cable package like it

932
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 7: was now, like you had to pay to watch like

933
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 7: Scooby Doo for twenty four hours a day, seven days

934
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,879
Speaker 7: a week and things like that. So yeah, it kind

935
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:48,759
Speaker 7: of now it is everywhere. Oh and I kind of

936
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 7: wanted to go back, not to get off the top of.

937
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 2: The No, that's what we do care we might Me

938
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:56,320
Speaker 2: and Mike always are going back. Okay, Honestly I was

939
00:44:56,360 --> 00:45:02,760
Speaker 2: thinking this, everyone alive or dead is a has been yes.

940
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 3: So we only can go back, Karen, go ahead and

941
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:05,399
Speaker 3: go back.

942
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 4: I think right now where it.

943
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:12,760
Speaker 2: Is and your future children are will be as hopefully

944
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 2: no one else.

945
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 7: When we were talking about endings and shows ending and

946
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 7: how fans kind of respond to things ending, Uh. I

947
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,799
Speaker 7: think me and Roger kind of talked about this, and

948
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 7: I've come to this conclusion. I think people have created

949
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:34,000
Speaker 7: communities around these things, and when it ends, they're not

950
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 7: gonna be pleased no matter what happens, and they don't

951
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,760
Speaker 7: want to admit to themselves that they're gonna miss sitting

952
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 7: that time a day to the side. They're gonna miss,

953
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:46,400
Speaker 7: you know, the friends that they created online, or the circles,

954
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:49,280
Speaker 7: or the watch parties that they may have had where

955
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 7: you're invited everybody over, we're sitting, we're watching, you know,

956
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 7: talking about it all week on line or talking about

957
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,839
Speaker 7: it through that like like that's the part you're gonna miss.

958
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,759
Speaker 7: There's nothing they could do to actually these people. People

959
00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 7: don't want to admit they're sad that it's ending.

960
00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, I said.

961
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 2: The anger, the anger at endings feels more like an

962
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:12,760
Speaker 2: anger of losing something like it because like Gamer Thrones

963
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 2: should not make that many people upset, you know what

964
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 2: I mean. And the reason I say that is because

965
00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 2: these super fans that got upset, they knew all these

966
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,080
Speaker 2: other things that were happening, like Georgia R.

967
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 3: Martin didn't finish the books.

968
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,200
Speaker 2: They they had to take long breaks in between people

969
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 2: like actors can't just stay the same age like a

970
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 2: character for ten twenty years. Like when they come back,

971
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 2: it's gonna be harder to do. And so they got

972
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 2: to start wrapping it up.

973
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:39,800
Speaker 3: They knew that this show didn't get.

974
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 2: As many episodes as it got before, so like they

975
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,520
Speaker 2: had a bunch of reasons to expect, like, hey, this

976
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 2: thing's gonna be fed, it's gonna be sped up. They're

977
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,440
Speaker 2: gonna have to They're not gonna have the greatest dialogue

978
00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 2: because they the guy who wrote the dialogue.

979
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:52,400
Speaker 4: Is not writing right.

980
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:55,879
Speaker 2: And they're gonna have to like get these actors back

981
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:59,040
Speaker 2: to their lives because they can't just keep expensively holding

982
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,400
Speaker 2: these people for ever. And some of these who were

983
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,640
Speaker 2: coming like stars and shit, like you keep going Amelia

984
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,959
Speaker 2: Clark's going to be like, I'm not coming back, guys,

985
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 2: I'm doing twelve movies.

986
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,840
Speaker 3: So we knew all that, and yet as it was happening,

987
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 3: is like, oh.

988
00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 2: More, one more episode closer to the end, and I'm

989
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:18,560
Speaker 2: not happy about it. I'm gonna be even matter next week,

990
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:19,840
Speaker 2: and it kind of ballooned.

991
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,879
Speaker 1: Absolutely. I have two things. Number one, like you're talking

992
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:27,799
Speaker 1: about you know, carying. You're like, people are sad. I

993
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,439
Speaker 1: think that's very astute that there's something deeper going on

994
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,439
Speaker 1: than just the surface level, like the show is ending.

995
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,279
Speaker 4: They had a relationship with the show. It's like a

996
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:36,399
Speaker 4: relationship is ending.

997
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:39,680
Speaker 1: There's grief and the stages of grieving, like you pointed

998
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 1: out sadness, you put it out anger. You know this,

999
00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:46,920
Speaker 1: five stages of a show ending are anger, sadness, bargaining, denial,

1000
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:47,680
Speaker 1: and reboot.

1001
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 4: Like I think they're like.

1002
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 1: I think it's very wise, very astute, very apt of

1003
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 1: you to point that out, Karen. And it reminds me

1004
00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 1: of when I listened to Dan Savage's podcast This Sound

1005
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:01,920
Speaker 1: his Love Cast or read his column.

1006
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 6: Uh.

1007
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 1: This has come up a few times over the years

1008
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 1: that somebody calls in or writes in and is like, hey,

1009
00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,000
Speaker 1: somebody broke up with me in a way that I

1010
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,240
Speaker 1: didn't like, Like they should you know, we were together

1011
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 1: long enough, like they they just ghosted me, like obviously,

1012
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,400
Speaker 1: but you know we've been on enough dates. They shouldn't

1013
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 1: have ghosted me, or we were together this long. They

1014
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,799
Speaker 1: should have done a phone call, not a text. They

1015
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,839
Speaker 1: did it by text and not they should have done

1016
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 1: a phone call er. They did it by a phone call,

1017
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 1: but we were together so long they should.

1018
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:29,320
Speaker 4: Have done it in person.

1019
00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:31,200
Speaker 1: Like they did it, you know, they flew like they

1020
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 1: didn't fly to seam, you know they And so his

1021
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 1: point was always like ultimately like there, you're probably upset

1022
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,480
Speaker 1: that you're being broken up with, and so you're just

1023
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 1: projecting it onto.

1024
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,800
Speaker 4: The mechanism, the method, the how instead.

1025
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 3: Of the what.

1026
00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,880
Speaker 1: But it's really like, oh wow, if they broke like

1027
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 1: you've have you ever heard they broke up with me

1028
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:57,760
Speaker 1: in exactly the perfect way, the real right right over

1029
00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:01,760
Speaker 1: and no notes like oh my god, chefs kiss.

1030
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:04,160
Speaker 3: That would be great.

1031
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:06,799
Speaker 2: That would be great if someone had that story of like,

1032
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:10,560
Speaker 2: you know what, my boyfriend was a jerk the whole relationship,

1033
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:14,160
Speaker 2: but the breakup was so good that I like, I

1034
00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:16,320
Speaker 2: kind of I can't be mad at the dude. That's

1035
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:20,799
Speaker 2: it was a first class, top quality breakup. We had

1036
00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:24,320
Speaker 2: grief counselors, he had food. It was it was amazing.

1037
00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:26,680
Speaker 2: He already had moved me out of the place and

1038
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 2: started my first month leasee, Like, thank you for that breakup.

1039
00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 1: And I think that like even when a show does

1040
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,799
Speaker 1: like I'm enjoying the Scrubs reboot like I enjoyed when

1041
00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:38,760
Speaker 1: they bring what.

1042
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:41,360
Speaker 2: I was told people don't want no Scrubs? Are you

1043
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,279
Speaker 2: saying people do want Scrubs?

1044
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:45,480
Speaker 5: They do want Scrubs.

1045
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 7: It's like the highest rating show that I'm had in

1046
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:48,440
Speaker 7: a long time.

1047
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:50,360
Speaker 3: Well, TLC lied to me.

1048
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:56,160
Speaker 4: Did you know they're getting a lot of TLC. It's enjoyable,

1049
00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:57,879
Speaker 4: like they're they're doing, you.

1050
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,799
Speaker 1: Know, it's it has a similar feel, a similar emotional

1051
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,040
Speaker 1: kind of but also like you can never have the

1052
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 1: same experience that you had because like you had the

1053
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:09,400
Speaker 1: like the when Scrubs first came.

1054
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 4: Out, Like I watched it, I'm like, oh wow, I've

1055
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:13,280
Speaker 4: never experienced this before.

1056
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 1: Right now I'm watching it and I'm like I've kind

1057
00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:17,240
Speaker 1: of experienced this before.

1058
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:17,719
Speaker 4: I'm glad.

1059
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:21,879
Speaker 1: There's like new jokes, new characters, new new storylines, new

1060
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:25,120
Speaker 1: experiences that they're they're figuring out, you know, like that

1061
00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,480
Speaker 1: got the creator is good. You know he also made

1062
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:30,200
Speaker 1: like what a ted Lasso, which I love and has

1063
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:33,080
Speaker 1: made shrinking and like you know, there's lots of really

1064
00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:38,600
Speaker 1: good emotional stories going on and funny stuff. And also

1065
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 1: it goes back to you know, my wanting to read

1066
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:46,799
Speaker 1: the Absolute Batman that I just read again, but not

1067
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 1: again again, just like again for the first time.

1068
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:53,040
Speaker 4: I'm like, I wanna have what I had again.

1069
00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 1: I get like it's the way that like comedy, when

1070
00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:57,760
Speaker 1: you like a comedian, a thing you love about a comedian,

1071
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 1: one part of it is usually that they're consistently surprising,

1072
00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:05,400
Speaker 1: like like you can count on this person to always

1073
00:51:05,400 --> 00:51:08,600
Speaker 1: say something that you have no idea what they're going

1074
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:13,160
Speaker 1: to say, because that's what's enjoyable about if you knew

1075
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 1: what was gonna happen. You're like, so I know what's

1076
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,279
Speaker 1: gonna happen is I'm gonna.

1077
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:20,000
Speaker 4: Go in and I'm gonna have an experience where I

1078
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 4: don't know what's gonna happen.

1079
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:24,600
Speaker 1: It's like like psychedelics, you want the proper set and setting.

1080
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:27,480
Speaker 1: You'd be like, all right, I'm here and I know

1081
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:31,319
Speaker 1: and I'm open to whatever's gonna happen. And then you

1082
00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:33,680
Speaker 1: know you've been You've had enough experience. You're like, I've

1083
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:37,279
Speaker 1: seen Reggie Watts before, I've seen Maria Bamford before, and

1084
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 1: now to see them say new things that they've worked

1085
00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:44,239
Speaker 1: out or are improvising on the spot, like it's you know,

1086
00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,799
Speaker 1: a beautiful thing. Uh, Like I'm actually kind of I

1087
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 1: like when I mean not that I like when I

1088
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:52,520
Speaker 1: show that I love ends, but there is a satisfaction,

1089
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:54,319
Speaker 1: like I like being in the middle of a good thing.

1090
00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:57,319
Speaker 1: I just watched the show The Night Manager, and you

1091
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 1: guys watched Night Manager.

1092
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:01,000
Speaker 4: With but I heard it.

1093
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:02,560
Speaker 3: It's like a limited series, right.

1094
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:07,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's two six episode seasons.

1095
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 1: There's one that came out like ten years ago and

1096
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:12,160
Speaker 1: one that came out like one year ago. And it's like, uh,

1097
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:16,840
Speaker 1: Hugh Laurie, Olivia Coleman, Thomas Hiddleston, they're all like great actors,

1098
00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:19,720
Speaker 1: and it's like I'm not Look, I'm not a spy

1099
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:23,319
Speaker 1: that you know of, so I don't know how realistic

1100
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:28,160
Speaker 1: it actually is, but I it seems more.

1101
00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,600
Speaker 4: Realistic than a lot of like.

1102
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:34,520
Speaker 1: You know, action packed like beach read spy shows where

1103
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:37,320
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, like Jason Bourne, he's like running

1104
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:39,919
Speaker 1: and punching and fighting and then but this one there's

1105
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 1: a lot more like waiting and like surveiling and like

1106
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 1: like there's like not to spoil anything, but like one

1107
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:49,839
Speaker 1: character is like all right, we're gonna embed you in

1108
00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 1: that person's organization, So it's probably gonna take many months

1109
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 1: and then you know, over the It's not just like.

1110
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:58,560
Speaker 4: Oh my god, the White House is gonna explode tomorrow,

1111
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:00,399
Speaker 4: all right.

1112
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:03,680
Speaker 1: Burn, But it's like I loved watching it, and I'm

1113
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:07,800
Speaker 1: also glad that I got to experience the whole story

1114
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 1: of it, and I can go watch it again, or

1115
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 1: I could share it with Reenie because she didn't watch

1116
00:53:12,880 --> 00:53:15,239
Speaker 1: the whole thing. I'm like, and then experience it like

1117
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:19,000
Speaker 1: watching it through a loved one's eyes. Oh, also to

1118
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 1: go back to the same thing that you went back to, Karen.

1119
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:24,799
Speaker 1: Thank you for you know, piggybacking allowing me this leap

1120
00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:28,480
Speaker 1: frog one show that I feel like, like I appreciate

1121
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:30,440
Speaker 1: what you're talking about, Rob when there is like an

1122
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:33,760
Speaker 1: ambiguous ending, like a meaningful like a Sopranos type ending.

1123
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,840
Speaker 1: But and also I don't think Gallaz watch one of

1124
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:38,560
Speaker 1: my favorite shows, one of our favorite shows in this

1125
00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:42,400
Speaker 1: household is Six Feet Under, and the ending the final

1126
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:46,279
Speaker 1: episode of Six Feet Under was like so satisfying in

1127
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:49,400
Speaker 1: exactly the opposite of the Lost Way. Like it's like

1128
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:54,840
Speaker 1: very clear and very like just momentous and like all

1129
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:56,000
Speaker 1: encompassing and.

1130
00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 4: Like they they did it right.

1131
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:01,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to spoil it, but it is an

1132
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:03,359
Speaker 1: incredible like we're gonna rewatch it at some point.

1133
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:06,120
Speaker 3: I think it's just like on the creative side too.

1134
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:10,239
Speaker 2: I really like, now that I've been on the other

1135
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:14,359
Speaker 2: side or something. I like to see creators that got

1136
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,719
Speaker 2: to know that that when the end was gonna be

1137
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 2: for their project, so they get to tailor it to that,

1138
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:23,399
Speaker 2: you know, because a lot of times you can see

1139
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:26,160
Speaker 2: when artists get like blindsided where it's like we're gonna

1140
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 2: write this with the hope that we in another season,

1141
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:31,880
Speaker 2: and then they ended and as a cliffhanger, the you know,

1142
00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:33,799
Speaker 2: it's please place for the characters to go, and then

1143
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:38,160
Speaker 2: like canceled and you're like, oh, I'll never know what happened.

1144
00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:40,520
Speaker 2: But sometimes even if they have to kind of rush

1145
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:43,400
Speaker 2: through it to know, like hey, so we got we

1146
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 2: give you green light for thirteen more episodes. This is

1147
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:49,640
Speaker 2: it the finale for the season, is you got you

1148
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:51,600
Speaker 2: got a year to write it or whatever. I like

1149
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:54,240
Speaker 2: that knowing like, okay, they got to do a limited series,

1150
00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 2: same thing. I was like, oh cool for them. They

1151
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:59,360
Speaker 2: knew going in six seven episodes. It's the whole story

1152
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,279
Speaker 2: and we're done because the stress the other way just

1153
00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:03,040
Speaker 2: sucks of like.

1154
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:04,160

Speaker 7: he would be so livid and I didn't understand why.

1169
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:41,879
Speaker 7: So years later I was like, you know what, I'm

Speaker 4: to have a show called Totally Biased.

1195
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,600
Speaker 1: That shot in New York, and I was fortunate enough

1196
00:56:53,640 --> 00:56:55,640
Speaker 1: I got to do warm up comedy for the show,

1197
00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:57,440
Speaker 1: like you know, warm up the audience before they came in.

1198
00:56:57,719 --> 00:56:59,240
Speaker 4: Got to see the show's taping.

1199
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 1: So I saw Harrydoo a segment because he was a

1200
00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:06,239
Speaker 1: writer on it and a correspondent, and he did a

1201
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:10,799
Speaker 1: segment when I think Mindy Kaling's first sitcom was coming out,

1202
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:13,759
Speaker 1: like it was the first time Mindy Kaling, like the

1203
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 1: Mindy Project maybe, and he's like, this is the first

1204
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:21,320
Speaker 1: Indian American star of a sitcom, and he brought us

1205
00:57:21,360 --> 00:57:28,280
Speaker 1: through all of the history of Indian representation in American

1206
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:30,080
Speaker 1: TV and movies from.

1207
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 4: Like within our lifetime. The movie Short Circuit, remember number five,

1208
00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:36,800
Speaker 4: Like there.

1209
00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:39,960
Speaker 1: Was an Indian character in that movie in the eighties,

1210
00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 1: an Indian character played by a white person. In our lifetime,

1211
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 1: it used to be mad.

1212
00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:49,280
Speaker 5: In the eighties. Man, They they didn't care. They was

1213
00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,000
Speaker 5: just like, no, we we go slap something.

1214
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:52,200
Speaker 4: Moan.

00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:54,280
Speaker 5: You you're gonna go out in and act.

1216
00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:55,360
Speaker 3: I remember when I.

1217
00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:59,280
Speaker 2: Went to look it up on IMDb because that's one

1218
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:03,440
Speaker 2: of my favorite movie movie Short Circuit, Johnny five Alive.

1219
00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 3: That's a symbol wore that BHS. Honestly, you know what, Mike.

1220
00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:11,200
Speaker 2: Mike kind of reminded me of Johnny five a little bit,

1221
00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:17,080
Speaker 2: y'all could because and I but I remember I went

1222
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:18,920
Speaker 2: to the IMDb to be like, what happened to all

1223
00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:21,080
Speaker 2: those actors that was in it? And I was like,

1224
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:26,240
Speaker 2: who's this white man? That's not that's not that was

1225
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:27,120
Speaker 2: an Indian man?

1226
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:28,400
Speaker 3: And then was that was?

1227
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:28,640
Speaker 1: It?

1228
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:29,520
Speaker 3: Blew my mind.

1229
00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:32,960
Speaker 2: There's also the Puerto Rican woman and aliens, the one

1230
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 2: with the Marines not Puerto Ricans.

1231

Speaker 2: Okay, one moment, what if it's like on his butt?

1238
00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:57,280
Speaker 2: Oh oh, this is a little robot with a heart.

1239
00:58:57,120 --> 00:59:00,160
Speaker 4: In the middle. With the heart was there first year

1240
00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:01,160
Speaker 4: later I got the robot.

1241
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 1: But the reason I bring up Harry and uh, you

1242
00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:08,840
Speaker 1: know the great news about progress in our lifetime that

1243
00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:12,800
Speaker 1: you know, now we generally don't have white people playing

1244
00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:17,040
Speaker 1: other races, which is a good step forward.

1245
00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:19,280
Speaker 4: Yes, it is, you know he point he went through.

1246
00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 1: He's like, you know, we had an abed on community

1247
00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:24,880
Speaker 1: and you know, there's different kinds of brown people representing

1248
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:30,280
Speaker 1: on TV. And his eventually, like the main comedic thesis

1249
00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:33,439
Speaker 1: that he got to was He's like, thank goodness, now

1250
00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:37,640
Speaker 1: there's so many Indian people on television.

1251
00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:40,919
Speaker 4: I don't even have to like all of them.

1252
00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's what you know, you've reached the quality.

1253
00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:46,440
Speaker 3: A friend today.

1254
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 2: And we were talking about that with quarterbacks in the

1255
00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:53,640
Speaker 2: in the NFL, like as a black person when it

1256
00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,760
Speaker 2: was just like Super Risis and they didn't let black.

1257
00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:59,280
Speaker 3: People pay quarterback. It didn't matter how bad that quarterback.

1258
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:00,600
Speaker 4: It was a chance.

1259
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:03,800
Speaker 2: I was ready to start a lawsuit to the Supreme

1260
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:04,960
Speaker 2: Court if people were like.

1261
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:06,880
Speaker 3: I don't know, he threw twelve interceptions.

1262
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:12,520
Speaker 2: Other people have thrown twelve interceptions and they you know,

1263
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,720
Speaker 2: I was just making defending everything. But then I remember

1264
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:19,160
Speaker 2: one year there was enough black quarterbacks that I just

1265
01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 2: remember vividly being like, oh this guy stinks.

1266
01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:23,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1267
01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:25,640
Speaker 2: I was like, I was like, am I booing a

1268
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:28,920
Speaker 2: black guy? Well, I mean there are thirteen now that

1269
01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:32,040
Speaker 2: like you can go, I'm not. This is no longer

1270
01:00:32,080 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 2: a racial cause this is just football. Now, get the

1271
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:36,640
Speaker 2: hell off the field. You're look dwelling it.

1272
01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:41,080
Speaker 1: This is incredible also, So I'm going to make a

1273
01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 1: brief analogy in a moment. But first, Marlene in the

1274
01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 1: comments says, I like how Hank's area quit the Simpsons

1275
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:50,120
Speaker 1: because of guilt, just to give full credit where credit

1276
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:50,520
Speaker 1: is due.

1277
01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 5: Uh.

1278
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:56,240
Speaker 1: That is inspired by Hurry Kondoboulu's movie, which I believe

1279
01:00:56,360 --> 01:01:00,560
Speaker 1: was called The Problem with Apu, where he I don't think.

1280
01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,560
Speaker 1: I don't think Hankazaria did sit down to be interviewed

1281
01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 1: for that movie, but he did learn about its existence

1282
01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:12,600
Speaker 1: and didn't immediately put down the APU voice, but did

1283
01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:17,200
Speaker 1: shortly thereafter like yeah.

1284
01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:19,000
Speaker 2: And gave like he's given really solid interviews on it.

1285
01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:21,600
Speaker 2: I've loved his answers on it because they're not just

1286
01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,400
Speaker 2: a you know, I felt guilty or like man.

1287
01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:26,880
Speaker 3: This woke dy I just was like, bro, fuck it.

1288
01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 2: Like it's very like I absorbed the message. I think

1289
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:32,960
Speaker 2: these people are correct. And it's in the face of

1290
01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:35,280
Speaker 2: a lot of times these interviewers they think they're doing

1291
01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:39,240
Speaker 2: the interviewee a like service by defending them, and he

1292
01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:41,520
Speaker 2: pushes back on the defense like no, no, no, it

1293
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:45,520
Speaker 2: wasn't woke people or whatever, like whatever bullshit you're saying,

1294
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:46,720
Speaker 2: That's not what happened.

1295
01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:50,760
Speaker 3: They genuinely had a real cause and they were right right.

1296
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 7: And it's and also a lot of times when they

1297
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,280
Speaker 7: come at them like that, they're going, aren't you the victim,

1298
01:01:55,400 --> 01:01:56,560
Speaker 7: And they're going no, no.

1299
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:58,760
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, I appreciate.

1300
01:01:58,280 --> 01:01:59,360
Speaker 5: It that I'm not doing it.

1301
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:02,080
Speaker 7: And somebody had about up or Robert Downe and Junior

1302
01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:04,560
Speaker 7: Tropic Thunder. What people failed to realize with that that's

1303
01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:05,960
Speaker 7: a different scenario.

1304
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:09,080
Speaker 3: That satire on people White people that do that. I

1305
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,360
Speaker 3: was fine. Not only was off joke, not only was

1306
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,240
Speaker 3: I fine with that. I love that like.

1307
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:16,439
Speaker 5: All time.

1308
01:02:16,840 --> 01:02:20,440
Speaker 2: Like I hate that after like the Tumblr revolution of

1309
01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:26,200
Speaker 2: the Internet, people became so like literalist that that that

1310
01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,960
Speaker 2: that they would be like, oh from down ju d blackface.

1311
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:32,320
Speaker 2: I'm like, that's not the same, Like what it does

1312
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:35,400
Speaker 2: matter the context. You can't just like throw a sentence

1313
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:37,120
Speaker 2: out and then I go, well, I'm stupid.

1314
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 3: I guess I don't need to look into this any further.

1315
01:02:39,840 --> 01:02:42,400
Speaker 7: With like this, as somebody who was alive at the

1316
01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:45,240
Speaker 7: time when that movie came out, and ask somebody. Everybody

1317
01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:47,520
Speaker 7: and their mama went to go see that movie live.

1318
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:50,400
Speaker 7: Ask somebody. They had the most celebrities you were ever

1319
01:02:50,480 --> 01:02:52,960
Speaker 7: see in your lifetime. Nobody even knew Time Cruise was

1320
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:55,840
Speaker 7: in that movie. To the motherfucking end, you cannot tell

1321
01:02:55,920 --> 01:02:58,960
Speaker 7: me that people didn't understand the context of what was

1322
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:01,480
Speaker 7: happening at that time. And like you say, when it

1323
01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:03,800
Speaker 7: comes to that, people just go black face, but you

1324
01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:04,800
Speaker 7: go with it's more to it.

1325
01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 2: But let me say this though, I like there was

1326
01:03:08,480 --> 01:03:11,040
Speaker 2: a time where people would like you go watch Nerds

1327
01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 2: or something, and there's stuff in nerds where you're like,

1328
01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:16,000
Speaker 2: oh no, that's actually there's not like another level of clever.

1329
01:03:16,680 --> 01:03:19,600
Speaker 2: They just did the fucked up thing in the movie.

1330
01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:22,600
Speaker 3: You know, so like like I like, I like.

1331
01:03:22,680 --> 01:03:25,120
Speaker 2: And people and it was popular and people did like it.

1332
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:28,560
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, in this very specific case, it's specific case,

1333
01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:32,400
Speaker 2: this was thoughtful. It was addressing the issue you're upset

1334
01:03:32,440 --> 01:03:35,240
Speaker 2: about by saying, isn't this stupid?

1335
01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:38,000
Speaker 3: And so that's why that works to me.

1336
01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:42,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll say I'll put it this way. I validate,

1337
01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:44,320
Speaker 4: I agree with everything you're saying.

1338
01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:46,880
Speaker 1: And I don't know if we ever talked about the

1339
01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:50,920
Speaker 1: use mentioned distinction, like when you know, discussing let's say,

1340
01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 1: a racial slur or a slur of any kind, like

1341
01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:58,320
Speaker 1: in academic settings. You know, if you're reading Mark Twain

1342
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:02,280
Speaker 1: and you come across word like you're not you know,

1343
01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:06,720
Speaker 1: to mention the word still has some weight to it,

1344
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:09,560
Speaker 1: Like it's not to say that mentioning it is fine

1345
01:04:09,800 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 1: and using it is not. But there is a difference

1346
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:16,480
Speaker 1: between saying like, hey, no one should say this word,

1347
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,080
Speaker 1: like if I let's say heb you know, for for

1348
01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:21,640
Speaker 1: a Jewish slur, Like I'm like, hey, if you call

1349
01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 1: if somebody's like you heb, you dirty heb, you know,

1350
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:28,000
Speaker 1: screw you heb. Like that's using the word in an

1351
01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:32,840
Speaker 1: attempt to be with hateful, hurtful intention. But if I say, hey,

1352
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:36,000
Speaker 1: please don't call me a heb, I'm not using the word,

1353
01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:38,400
Speaker 1: mentioning the word. And so I feel like that's what

1354
01:04:38,440 --> 01:04:41,640
Speaker 1: was happening with blackface in that movie. They weren't using it,

1355
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:43,720
Speaker 1: they were mentioning it. It wasn't really black it was

1356
01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:49,520
Speaker 1: blackface face. Yes there was quotes around blackface, yes, like

1357
01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:52,320
Speaker 1: using it thoughtfully the way that you said just to

1358
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:53,080
Speaker 1: button up.

1359
01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:55,240
Speaker 4: Why I brought up hurry.

1360
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:59,120
Speaker 1: And not him not having to support every Indian and

1361
01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:02,800
Speaker 1: show business like you not having to support every black quarterback.

1362
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:07,560
Speaker 1: I feel the same way now about Marvel Entertainment. Like

1363
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:10,120
Speaker 1: when it was only Spider Man movies, I was like,

1364
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:12,720
Speaker 1: give me them all, like mainline them into me, like

1365
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:16,000
Speaker 1: all the Avengers and like all the Thores, like all

1366
01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:18,920
Speaker 1: the and now I'm like, I can't, I can't, I.

1367
01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:19,920
Speaker 4: Can't watch them all.

1368
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:22,720
Speaker 1: Like I I did watch mot I watched Agent, I

1369
01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:24,760
Speaker 1: watched Shield when it was on, but I don't think

1370
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:26,360
Speaker 1: I finished. At a certain point, I was like I

1371
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:29,280
Speaker 1: don't need all of shield and I don't I didn't

1372
01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:33,080
Speaker 1: get into Agent Carter. At some point on a long

1373
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:35,880
Speaker 1: enough timeline, I would like, I'm happy that they're making

1374
01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:36,520
Speaker 1: these things.

1375
01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:39,320
Speaker 2: But you know what that you know what that also

1376
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:44,320
Speaker 2: what that also is a function of is how much

1377
01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:49,320
Speaker 2: we have taken our entertainment as like a chore, like

1378
01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:53,440
Speaker 2: like this, here's how I stay relevant in my society

1379
01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:55,320
Speaker 2: by absorbing all.

1380
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:56,920
Speaker 3: The tent pole media.

1381
01:05:56,440 --> 01:06:00,320
Speaker 2: And obviously it's impossible to keep up, but be cause

1382
01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:04,800
Speaker 2: and I you know, I try to be mindful and

1383
01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:06,520
Speaker 2: actively seeking.

1384
01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:06,920
Speaker 3: Like my joy.

1385
01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:09,920
Speaker 2: So like like me and Karen, we are the people

1386
01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:12,320
Speaker 2: that keep up on all the Marble, all the Star Wars,

1387
01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:13,000
Speaker 2: all the things.

1388
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,800
Speaker 3: But that's because we're still having so much fun.

1389
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:17,840
Speaker 5: Yes, Like I feel like if.

1390
01:06:17,720 --> 01:06:20,400
Speaker 7: I didn't like it, I wouldn't watch it.

1391
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:23,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like if I was a Star Wars person who like,

1392
01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:27,120
Speaker 2: the only thing I love is like and Or and

1393
01:06:27,320 --> 01:06:30,320
Speaker 2: Rogue one, I don't know why you would ever watch

1394
01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:33,120
Speaker 2: the other stuff. It's it's not like that, like none

1395
01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:35,960
Speaker 2: of it is, like you're going to eternally be like

1396
01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:40,439
Speaker 2: I am disappointed again. I guess I guess I don't

1397
01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:42,760
Speaker 2: like swords or whatever. It's like, no, no, it's okay.

1398
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:45,360
Speaker 2: You can just tap in for the thing you like

1399
01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:46,960
Speaker 2: and then just tap out. You don't got to know

1400
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:49,920
Speaker 2: all of it. And for the most part, like knowing

1401
01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:52,800
Speaker 2: all of it is like a cool thing in itself

1402
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:55,440
Speaker 2: for like those of us who like are into that

1403
01:06:55,520 --> 01:06:56,120
Speaker 2: to be like.

1404
01:06:56,160 --> 01:06:58,840
Speaker 3: Oh man, that's just like in Vandalorian when they went

1405
01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:00,760
Speaker 3: to tattooing. He didn't even know this.

1406
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:03,439
Speaker 2: That's cool, but like it's also good if you don't

1407
01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:05,360
Speaker 2: know that, you can still enjoy these things. I think

1408
01:07:05,400 --> 01:07:09,120
Speaker 2: Marvel's gotten to that point, which I think it's honestly

1409
01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:11,440
Speaker 2: a very good thing from Marvel that they've gotten to

1410
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:12,960
Speaker 2: a point where someone could be like, I.

1411
01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:13,880
Speaker 3: Just like Miss Marvel.

1412
01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:17,080
Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, that's that's what they wanted when they

1413
01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:20,080
Speaker 2: The reason they make Miss Marvels not because you're gonna

1414
01:07:20,080 --> 01:07:22,120
Speaker 2: watch all of it, but it's because we got one

1415
01:07:22,160 --> 01:07:24,840
Speaker 2: thing you will watch and you'll keep paying for the

1416
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 2: one thing, and that's gonna have to be enough for

1417
01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:28,200
Speaker 2: us because we're so huge now.

1418
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:32,959
Speaker 7: Yes, it's something that Roger bought up years ago when

1419
01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:37,200
Speaker 7: the Marvel movies and things came out. I think, yeah,

1420
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:39,480
Speaker 7: I think you did you was like, they're gonna get

1421
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:41,200
Speaker 7: to the point where it's gonna be like real life

1422
01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 7: comic books, because you read combooks heavy. And Roger said

1423
01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:46,480
Speaker 7: on the show years ago, he was like, you're not

1424
01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:49,080
Speaker 7: gonna be able to keep it with everything everything. You're

1425
01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:51,320
Speaker 7: gonna narrow it down and you're gonna be like, I

1426
01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:53,160
Speaker 7: like black Panthers, it ain't black panther.

1427
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:55,040
Speaker 3: Don't holler as a comic book reader.

1428
01:07:56,400 --> 01:07:58,360
Speaker 2: I like, I saw the writing on the wall, like

1429
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:02,000
Speaker 2: after like Iron Man or whatever, people are like, well, one.

1430
01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:04,160
Speaker 3: Day they'll just like after you think after the endgame,

1431
01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:04,760
Speaker 3: they'll be done.

1432
01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:09,960
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, oh my, poor, poor poor naive Hadawan.

1433
01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:13,840
Speaker 2: They're never done, even when you think they're done, which

1434
01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,760
Speaker 2: one day they like it'll be fifty years from now

1435
01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:20,880
Speaker 2: and you'll go, Okay, they finally have to be done.

1436
01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,519
Speaker 2: No one even watched the last movie, and they'll go,

1437
01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:27,120
Speaker 2: you know what, you're right, iron Man one, iron.

1438
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:29,400
Speaker 3: Man one, we got a new guy playing.

1439
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 4: Robert Downey Jr.

1440
01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:31,320
Speaker 3: We're doing it again.

1441
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:34,599
Speaker 2: Like that's comic books out the amount of characters I

1442
01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:38,360
Speaker 2: know who have died and just are never going to die.

1443
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:40,080
Speaker 3: That is what this is.

1444
01:08:40,720 --> 01:08:43,479
Speaker 2: And maybe people are slowly realizing it ten years into

1445
01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:44,040
Speaker 2: the MCU.

1446
01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:46,800
Speaker 3: But like, hey, guys, I hate tell you this. Y'all

1447
01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:47,759
Speaker 3: reading comic books.

1448
01:08:47,840 --> 01:08:50,759
Speaker 2: They just made them with real people, But you're reading

1449
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:51,360
Speaker 2: comic books.

1450
01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:53,960
Speaker 3: Robert Downey Jr. And iron Man.

1451
01:08:54,160 --> 01:08:57,519
Speaker 2: The concept will one day have to die because he's

1452
01:08:57,520 --> 01:09:01,599
Speaker 2: gonna die. But iron Man, by itself, the concept, it's

1453
01:09:01,760 --> 01:09:02,439
Speaker 2: never gonna die.

1454
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:03,800
Speaker 3: It's selling it to your grandkids.

1455
01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:04,760
Speaker 4: Yea, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1456
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:09,920
Speaker 1: Also, I will say that, what with artificial intelligence, maybe

1457
01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 1: Robert Downey Junior, even when he dies in the future.

1458
01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:15,320
Speaker 4: Will have a iron Man.

1459
01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:15,960
Speaker 3: Ah.

1460
01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:21,559
Speaker 4: I will say this. I agreed one hundred percent.

1461
01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:25,560
Speaker 1: I now as like sort of a recovering completist, you know,

1462
01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:30,840
Speaker 1: somebody who did Roger Watch take in all the things

1463
01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:34,360
Speaker 1: that I could love, Like, there's more things that I

1464
01:09:34,520 --> 01:09:39,040
Speaker 1: could love that like stand up specials, comic books, advice columns,

1465
01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:41,000
Speaker 1: Marvel stuff, all the all of it.

1466
01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:45,160
Speaker 4: So now I content myself to know that I'm like,

1467
01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:46,519
Speaker 4: what show am I watching?

1468
01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:46,760
Speaker 3: Now?

1469
01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:48,160
Speaker 4: What special do I want to watch?

1470
01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:50,320
Speaker 1: I have like a que you know, not just Netflix,

1471
01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:52,880
Speaker 1: but just like here's the things that I want to

1472
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:55,520
Speaker 1: get to on If I had an infinite.

1473
01:09:55,240 --> 01:09:57,200
Speaker 4: Timeline, I would watch these hundred.

1474
01:09:57,040 --> 01:10:02,640
Speaker 1: Movies, these fifty shows, these books, these musicians, and like,

1475
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:06,760
Speaker 1: as long as when I have the time to listen

1476
01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:09,400
Speaker 1: to something like while I'm watching the dishes, while I'm

1477
01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:12,120
Speaker 1: brushing my teeth, while I'm you know, doing something whe

1478
01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:14,479
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, I could be taking in some media

1479
01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:16,439
Speaker 1: while I'm doing this other thing, or at night, or

1480
01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:18,439
Speaker 1: if Reenie is out and I'm like, I've got two

1481
01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:21,880
Speaker 1: hours to myself. What's something that I want to watch?

1482
01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:24,640
Speaker 1: And it doesn't have to be the perfect thing, but

1483
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:27,120
Speaker 1: it has to be I want it to be something.

1484
01:10:27,160 --> 01:10:29,559
Speaker 4: I'm like, this thing. I want this thing.

1485
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:33,280
Speaker 1: It'll be if it's this thing, then if it's above

1486
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:35,720
Speaker 1: a certain line, then I'm like, then it doesn't matter

1487
01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:37,960
Speaker 1: which one it is. I'm like, oh, man, I should

1488
01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:40,240
Speaker 1: have been I'm not done with Righteous Gemstones yet.

1489
01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:42,640
Speaker 4: Why am I starting this other thing? Well, like, well

1490
01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:43,920
Speaker 4: it's cool. If I want to start the other thing,

1491
01:10:43,960 --> 01:10:44,640
Speaker 4: I'll start the other thing.

1492
01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:45,040
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1493
01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:47,759
Speaker 3: And also like you can always go back and finish

1494
01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:49,800
Speaker 3: it later. I just I do that a lot now.

1495
01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:52,040
Speaker 2: I just did that with gen V when I got

1496
01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:54,320
Speaker 2: watched four episodes and I was like, I got caught

1497
01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:57,080
Speaker 2: up something that fallout came out or something, and then

1498
01:10:57,120 --> 01:10:57,559
Speaker 2: I was like, oh.

1499
01:10:57,560 --> 01:10:58,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, I never finished GENV.

1500
01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:01,040
Speaker 2: You know, a nice little tree for me, Like, oh,

1501
01:11:01,400 --> 01:11:03,680
Speaker 2: if anything, I had less to go, I was like,

1502
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:04,920
Speaker 2: I already watch half.

1503
01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:06,400
Speaker 5: I'll just watched the rest.

1504
01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:08,760
Speaker 3: Of the half. And then you know, like it still

1505
01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:11,240
Speaker 3: was good to me. I'm still was satisfied, I think.

1506
01:11:11,600 --> 01:11:13,840
Speaker 2: But I think the main thing for me, the way

1507
01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:17,320
Speaker 2: that I can stay so positive is because I did

1508
01:11:17,479 --> 01:11:21,639
Speaker 2: stop seeking community around the content absorbed. So I don't

1509
01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:25,360
Speaker 2: talk to people because I think there's a general tenor

1510
01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:28,519
Speaker 2: of fomo and I think it makes us. It makes

1511
01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:30,519
Speaker 2: us more down on things and up on things, cause,

1512
01:11:30,560 --> 01:11:33,760
Speaker 2: like I because it's double the pressure is one is

1513
01:11:34,160 --> 01:11:36,559
Speaker 2: I'm missing out on some other thing that might be great,

1514
01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:39,120
Speaker 2: but it's also the I'm watching.

1515
01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:41,040
Speaker 3: This thing and it's not great. So it's like, oh,

1516
01:11:41,160 --> 01:11:42,960
Speaker 3: this is all thumbs down over here. I don't want

1517
01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 3: to be part of this.

1518
01:11:43,680 --> 01:11:46,800
Speaker 7: I one percent agree, And I think that you have

1519
01:11:46,960 --> 01:11:51,160
Speaker 7: to be content with not consuming everything. You know, you

1520
01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:54,160
Speaker 7: can't consume everything, and everybody knows you can't consume everything.

1521
01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:57,040
Speaker 7: But when you in community or you talk to people

1522
01:11:57,600 --> 01:11:59,320
Speaker 7: a lot of times it's hard because all of a

1523
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:00,919
Speaker 7: sudden feel like homework assignment.

1524
01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:02,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I turn me funny.

1525
01:12:03,200 --> 01:12:05,000
Speaker 7: They give you ship that you ain't gonna watch, and

1526
01:12:05,040 --> 01:12:06,559
Speaker 7: you're giving them ship to day ain't gonna watch.

1527
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:08,320
Speaker 3: Wait, why are you not trying to be funny? This

1528
01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:11,519
Speaker 3: is a comedy podcast. It's okay. You can try to

1529
01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:13,120
Speaker 3: be funny. It's okay about it.

1530
01:12:14,360 --> 01:12:15,920
Speaker 4: You don't have to try to be funny. Yeah, you

1531
01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:21,680
Speaker 4: are doing it. Three three things if I if I

1532
01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:23,280
Speaker 4: can get to them one.

1533
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:28,160
Speaker 2: But imagine if she tried Mike all this time, three

1534
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 2: thousand episodes.

1535
01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:31,360
Speaker 3: She's just been out here existing. It's funny.

1536
01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:33,519
Speaker 4: All right, go ahead, thank you.

1537
01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:36,880
Speaker 3: So I don't know if you watched twenty four when

1538
01:12:36,920 --> 01:12:39,200
Speaker 3: that's yeah, we definitely watched twenty fours out Beasts.

1539
01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:43,559
Speaker 7: We watched all the two years and twenty four Chloe Jack,

1540
01:12:43,800 --> 01:12:44,080
Speaker 7: let's go.

1541
01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:46,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was really awesome.

1542
01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:49,720
Speaker 1: I I enjoyed watching it a lot, and at a

1543
01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:53,519
Speaker 1: certain point I stopped watching it week by week as

1544
01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:55,040
Speaker 1: it came out because I was like, I don't want

1545
01:12:55,080 --> 01:12:57,160
Speaker 1: to wait a week, so I'd wait until, you know,

1546
01:12:57,320 --> 01:12:59,320
Speaker 1: halfway through the season or the whole way through the season.

1547
01:12:59,479 --> 01:13:00,720
Speaker 4: I remember one time I.

1548
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:02,960
Speaker 1: Was like on call as a resident assistant be you,

1549
01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:05,200
Speaker 1: and I just had to stay in my room for

1550
01:13:05,240 --> 01:13:08,320
Speaker 1: twenty four hours and I watched. I like watched a

1551
01:13:08,439 --> 01:13:11,320
Speaker 1: whole season of twenty four, which took because it's only

1552
01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:13,400
Speaker 1: like forty five minutes, like literally thing I was watching

1553
01:13:13,439 --> 01:13:14,720
Speaker 1: for like fifteen.

1554
01:13:14,360 --> 01:13:16,880
Speaker 4: Hours, Like maybe not the exact hole scene, but I

1555
01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:18,680
Speaker 4: watched for fifteen hours in a row.

1556
01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 1: And then a friend of mine, like on a message

1557
01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:24,240
Speaker 1: board that I was a part of, was like, hey,

1558
01:13:24,360 --> 01:13:26,040
Speaker 1: the new season of twenty four is starting.

1559
01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:29,080
Speaker 4: Let's all whoever wants to talk about it, let's watch.

1560
01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:30,640
Speaker 1: And so I was like, all right, I'll be a

1561
01:13:30,680 --> 01:13:34,040
Speaker 1: part of the community, and I started watching it the

1562
01:13:34,080 --> 01:13:36,439
Speaker 1: way that I knew that I didn't prefer to watch.

1563
01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:38,920
Speaker 4: I could talk with my friends about it.

1564
01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:41,720
Speaker 1: And I'm like, okay, well, I mean not to say

1565
01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:45,240
Speaker 1: I can talk to my friends about right exactly. It's

1566
01:13:45,280 --> 01:13:47,840
Speaker 1: not a choice between twenty like how I want to

1567
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:50,360
Speaker 1: enjoy twenty four and friendship. I'm like, I can have

1568
01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:53,280
Speaker 1: my friendship and I can have my media consumption the.

1569
01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:55,320
Speaker 4: Way I want to. That's one thing.

1570
01:13:55,479 --> 01:13:56,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, another thing.

1571
01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:01,880
Speaker 1: A couple weeks so, my mom and her boyfriend just

1572
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:04,000
Speaker 1: went to a show on Broadway that Reenie and I

1573
01:14:04,160 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 1: saw a month earlier.

1574
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:06,600
Speaker 4: The show is.

1575
01:14:06,800 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 1: I wonder if we talked about it last time I

1576
01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:10,960
Speaker 1: was here, because I think the last time I was

1577
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:13,479
Speaker 1: here we were about to go see it, like right

1578
01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:16,800
Speaker 1: after we finished. It's called all Out. This it's a

1579
01:14:17,360 --> 01:14:20,880
Speaker 1: companion show to a year earlier All In. Both written

1580
01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:24,639
Speaker 1: by Simon Rich who wrote for The New Yorker. He's

1581
01:14:24,680 --> 01:14:28,120
Speaker 1: written short stories, he's they've been turned into TV shows.

1582
01:14:28,600 --> 01:14:30,960
Speaker 1: He wrote for Saturday Night Live, and so he created

1583
01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:34,120
Speaker 1: this Broadway presentation I think with John Mulaney initially, and

1584
01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:37,800
Speaker 1: it's four people on stage at a time basically like

1585
01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:43,080
Speaker 1: act reading slash acting out his short stories and like

1586
01:14:43,160 --> 01:14:45,519
Speaker 1: the first ones were, All In was love themed and

1587
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:49,120
Speaker 1: all Out was ambition themed and actually the first time

1588
01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:51,040
Speaker 1: dying a lot of this stuff together. The first time

1589
01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:54,160
Speaker 1: we saw All In like a year ago, Hanka's Aria

1590
01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:57,040
Speaker 1: was one of the actors in it, and he was incredible.

1591
01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:01,160
Speaker 1: When we saw All Out a month ago, that featured

1592
01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:06,639
Speaker 1: Craig Robinson, Sarah Silverman, Heidi Gardner from SNL and Jason

1593
01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:09,479
Speaker 1: Mansukus were the four people on stage and there was

1594
01:15:09,479 --> 01:15:12,599
Speaker 1: a band called Lawrence, and we loved it like really

1595
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:17,280
Speaker 1: funny stories, like one where Sarah Silverman's like just embodying

1596
01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:21,519
Speaker 1: Paul Revere's horse is the narrator, and like other they're

1597
01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:25,280
Speaker 1: just like absurd and poignant and it's really cool. And

1598
01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:28,679
Speaker 1: every week or few weeks they would have different actors,

1599
01:15:28,760 --> 01:15:31,960
Speaker 1: different comedians take over the roles and read the same show.

1600
01:15:32,439 --> 01:15:34,040
Speaker 4: So we saw it with those.

1601
01:15:34,439 --> 01:15:36,640
Speaker 1: My mom decided she wanted to see it because she

1602
01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:37,800
Speaker 1: thought Mike bur Bigley was in it.

1603
01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 4: She likes him. She could she didn't get that ticket,

1604
01:15:40,479 --> 01:15:41,479
Speaker 4: but she did get it to.

1605
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 1: See Ray Romano. He was in it, Jenny Slate was

1606
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:46,960
Speaker 1: in it, and a couple other people, and she's like,

1607
01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:49,120
Speaker 1: I love Ray Romano and we're like, oh yeah, we

1608
01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:50,880
Speaker 1: really love the show. We think you'll love the show

1609
01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:53,280
Speaker 1: I saw. I had lunch with my mom and her

1610
01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:54,840
Speaker 1: boyfriend the day after they saw the show.

1611
01:15:55,640 --> 01:15:58,519
Speaker 4: And this is all just to recap why I'm sharing it.

1612
01:15:58,600 --> 01:16:00,639
Speaker 1: It's sort of in response to if you like Star

1613
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:04,640
Speaker 1: Wars because you enjoy and Or and Rogue one, then

1614
01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:06,519
Speaker 1: you'll be disappointed with other Star Wars.

1615
01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:09,519
Speaker 4: If you like Ray Romano's stand up and you think

1616
01:16:09,600 --> 01:16:11,920
Speaker 4: that's what you're going to see Brian going to see

1617
01:16:12,040 --> 01:16:13,000
Speaker 4: him as one.

1618
01:16:12,920 --> 01:16:18,240
Speaker 1: Of four actors reading and portraying short stories by Simon.

1619
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:20,760
Speaker 4: Rich and not his own stand up. You'll be like,

1620
01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:23,920
Speaker 4: what is this? You were like, I was like, how

1621
01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:24,439
Speaker 4: did you like it?

1622
01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:27,559
Speaker 1: Like we didn't really it wasn't really for us, I guess.

1623
01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:30,160
Speaker 1: But then I described, I was like, yeah, that's that.

1624
01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:31,920
Speaker 1: They thought it was going to be four stand ups.

1625
01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:34,599
Speaker 1: They thought it was going to be their own stand up.

1626
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:37,880
Speaker 1: And then after I was described, like, oh no, it's

1627
01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:39,120
Speaker 1: this other thing, and they're.

1628
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:42,160
Speaker 4: Like, well, I guess. I guess if we knew now

1629
01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:45,240
Speaker 4: that we know what it was supposed to be, maybe

1630
01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:46,840
Speaker 4: it was better than we thought.

1631
01:16:47,240 --> 01:16:48,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can see that.

1632
01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:52,280
Speaker 2: But Miani Jones, friend of the Shelfeur in real life,

1633
01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:56,080
Speaker 2: he was on a podcast for our Nerds recently. I

1634
01:16:56,200 --> 01:17:00,000
Speaker 2: was listening to it and he, I guess, now Infamous

1635
01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:04,960
Speaker 2: thinks that Centers was just okay, but right right. But

1636
01:17:06,360 --> 01:17:08,559
Speaker 2: as a friend of Omani, somebody knows him pretty well.

1637
01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 2: Bomoni doesn't really watch movies like he loved like three movies.

1638
01:17:13,280 --> 01:17:14,800
Speaker 2: He can quote like five, you know what I mean,

1639
01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:18,080
Speaker 2: and the wires like, it's not like he's my friend,

1640
01:17:18,280 --> 01:17:21,080
Speaker 2: So I like maybe it's a little different because I

1641
01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:21,960
Speaker 2: know him in real life.

1642
01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:23,639
Speaker 3: But it's like, if he has an.

1643
01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:26,920
Speaker 2: Opinion on a movie, he's not Bomoni Jones podcast host.

1644
01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:29,080
Speaker 2: To me, it's Bomoni Jones, got it, don't watch movies.

1645
01:17:29,479 --> 01:17:31,120
Speaker 3: So I'm like, yeah, that makes sense.

1646
01:17:31,560 --> 01:17:34,200
Speaker 2: I'm sure I have other I'm sure I have some

1647
01:17:34,439 --> 01:17:37,200
Speaker 2: area like that in my life where if you were like, oh,

1648
01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:39,679
Speaker 2: you like this music or whatever, it's like, I don't.

1649
01:17:39,520 --> 01:17:40,519
Speaker 3: Listen to that kind of music.

1650
01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:43,439
Speaker 2: And so it's like and if I gave my opinion,

1651
01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:46,760
Speaker 2: it'd probably be like a not it's my opinion, but

1652
01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:49,479
Speaker 2: you don't have to respect my opinion because I literally

1653
01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:52,800
Speaker 2: have no grounding to tell you, like why like this

1654
01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:54,559
Speaker 2: jazz album over that jazz album.

1655
01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:56,120
Speaker 3: I can't name two jazz albums right.

1656
01:17:57,040 --> 01:17:59,640
Speaker 2: But it is funny though, because like, how much does

1657
01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:03,599
Speaker 2: it have to mean to people to get that feeling

1658
01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:05,120
Speaker 2: of like, oh, you don't like the thing that I

1659
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:05,479
Speaker 2: don't like.

1660
01:18:05,920 --> 01:18:07,920
Speaker 3: It's like you can you can also just be like

1661
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:09,840
Speaker 3: and that's that what makes the world go around. We're cool,

1662
01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:11,080
Speaker 3: We'll talk about another thing.

1663
01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:12,160
Speaker 5: Right, and that's okay.

1664
01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:14,880
Speaker 7: And also I think for me too, when it comes

1665
01:18:14,920 --> 01:18:17,840
Speaker 7: to consuming and consumption of like TV.

1666
01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:18,439
Speaker 5: And all this stuff.

1667
01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,640
Speaker 7: Sometimes I go through phases where I just want to

1668
01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:23,800
Speaker 7: watch the same shit twenty five times in the.

1669
01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:26,440
Speaker 5: Row, like and just not watch anything.

1670
01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:29,639
Speaker 3: And family and so I can watch that shit every day,

1671
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:29,920
Speaker 3: you know.

1672
01:18:30,200 --> 01:18:32,360
Speaker 7: And so when you do that, that means it's other

1673
01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:35,040
Speaker 7: things kind of rotating around you that you're out of

1674
01:18:35,080 --> 01:18:38,160
Speaker 7: the loop of, but you're content. Like because for me,

1675
01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:42,040
Speaker 7: when I consume things, I don't want to be angry.

1676
01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:42,600
Speaker 3: I don't know that.

1677
01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:44,000
Speaker 5: I don't want to be angry. I don't want to

1678
01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:44,400
Speaker 5: be mad.

1679
01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:47,439
Speaker 7: I just want to go in with the clean mind

1680
01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:50,800
Speaker 7: and go however the person is going to present this,

1681
01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:55,640
Speaker 7: I want to take it in without any thing in

1682
01:18:55,680 --> 01:18:56,439
Speaker 7: the back of my mind.

1683
01:18:57,320 --> 01:18:59,280
Speaker 2: Yeah that I do that a lot of times, where

1684
01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:02,240
Speaker 2: I actually, when I see a huge conversation about something

1685
01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:05,680
Speaker 2: the zeit guys that I want to watch in the conversation,

1686
01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:08,519
Speaker 2: I can just feel it taken over my brain, like, well,

1687
01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:10,479
Speaker 2: now I have to watch it with my arms folded.

1688
01:19:11,040 --> 01:19:12,599
Speaker 3: I will just wait.

1689
01:19:12,520 --> 01:19:15,360
Speaker 2: Until my memory hold it, like it might be six months,

1690
01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:19,080
Speaker 2: it might be years. And I'm like, I don't know

1691
01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:20,320
Speaker 2: what pluribus is about?

1692
01:19:20,320 --> 01:19:21,320
Speaker 4: What was everyone matter about?

1693
01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:23,600
Speaker 2: Anyway, and then you hit play and then you're like,

1694
01:19:24,000 --> 01:19:26,680
Speaker 2: pluralist is fucking awesome. Now the thing you give up

1695
01:19:26,880 --> 01:19:29,920
Speaker 2: is obviously the community. Yeah, but honestly, I don't need

1696
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:32,639
Speaker 2: the community, Like I kind of like my community.

1697
01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:34,800
Speaker 3: If just my brain going, oh yeah, I.

1698
01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:35,400
Speaker 7: Like this thing.

1699
01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:37,840
Speaker 4: I like, if I may.

1700
01:19:38,640 --> 01:19:41,720
Speaker 1: This brings me to my third point exactly of the

1701
01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:46,160
Speaker 1: three I mentioned, so you get you know the movie Heat, Yes,

1702
01:19:47,360 --> 01:19:49,840
Speaker 1: Heat the first time that Robert de Niro and al

1703
01:19:49,880 --> 01:19:53,240
Speaker 1: Pacino were ever on screen together in cinema history, even

1704
01:19:53,280 --> 01:19:56,439
Speaker 1: though they were in a movie previously, but they never

1705
01:19:56,520 --> 01:19:59,599
Speaker 1: were on screen. I saw it when it came out,

1706
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:02,639
Speaker 1: and it wasn't I thought it was fine at the time.

1707
01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:05,240
Speaker 1: Reenian had ever seen it. We just watched it for

1708
01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:08,880
Speaker 1: the first time together, like a couple of nights ago.

1709
01:20:09,240 --> 01:20:10,000
Speaker 3: You reheated it.

1710
01:20:12,960 --> 01:20:15,320
Speaker 4: We heated it. I am.

1711
01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:17,880
Speaker 1: One of the reasons it was in our consciousness in

1712
01:20:18,040 --> 01:20:21,240
Speaker 1: our household community was that in our acting class, we

1713
01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:25,040
Speaker 1: just took I did a scene, the diner scene from Heat,

1714
01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:28,479
Speaker 1: where I played the Paino character and with a guy

1715
01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:30,599
Speaker 1: who did the near one, and so we're like, oh wow,

1716
01:20:30,680 --> 01:20:32,880
Speaker 1: it was cool to see the scene that I had

1717
01:20:32,960 --> 01:20:38,480
Speaker 1: done done by these you know, fantastic actors.

1718
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:40,720
Speaker 3: And were you better than them or were they better

1719
01:20:40,800 --> 01:20:41,000
Speaker 3: than you?

1720
01:20:41,840 --> 01:20:43,960
Speaker 4: Look, it can't compare it. I think we both made

1721
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:44,519
Speaker 4: it our own.

1722
01:20:44,680 --> 01:20:46,720
Speaker 3: And all right, listen, if you can't beat the heat.

1723
01:20:48,760 --> 01:20:53,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I didn't say who at all, but which I

1724
01:20:53,479 --> 01:20:55,679
Speaker 4: think you know made my performance stuff for a little.

1725
01:20:55,720 --> 01:21:00,760
Speaker 4: But you know, do y'all know the old Gim Gaffigan

1726
01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:02,400
Speaker 4: joke about heat?

1727
01:21:03,600 --> 01:21:05,920
Speaker 3: Is it about the hot PoCA heat? If not didn't know,

1728
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:06,800
Speaker 3: ha ha.

1729
01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:12,439
Speaker 1: Great, great, guess that his joke is basically, Hey, so

1730
01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:14,120
Speaker 1: I just saw the movie Heat.

1731
01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:17,040
Speaker 4: I know it came out five years ago, but I

1732
01:21:17,160 --> 01:21:22,360
Speaker 4: want to talk about it now. And the beautiful thing is,

1733
01:21:22,600 --> 01:21:23,559
Speaker 4: I thought that later.

1734
01:21:23,520 --> 01:21:25,080
Speaker 1: I wrote a joke and I was like, I don't

1735
01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:27,040
Speaker 1: know how to tell this joke without telling his joke.

1736
01:21:27,080 --> 01:21:29,479
Speaker 1: But like I want to talk about Jim Gaffigan's joke

1737
01:21:29,520 --> 01:21:34,519
Speaker 1: about heat. My friend Nick Vaderot figured out a way

1738
01:21:34,560 --> 01:21:36,680
Speaker 1: to do it, like sort of just in parallel.

1739
01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:37,559
Speaker 4: I saw it one time.

1740
01:21:37,640 --> 01:21:40,599
Speaker 1: He tweeted at Jim Gaffigan, I want to talk about

1741
01:21:40,640 --> 01:21:42,360
Speaker 1: your joke about heat now.

1742
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:47,200
Speaker 2: And the beautiful thing is he retweeted your reheated heat

1743
01:21:47,960 --> 01:21:49,759
Speaker 2: tweet Wow.

1744
01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:51,760
Speaker 4: Reheated heat.

1745
01:21:54,160 --> 01:21:58,360
Speaker 1: And the beautiful thing is that because now there is

1746
01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:01,840
Speaker 1: less of a monoculture. Of course, like when game a

1747
01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:05,280
Speaker 1: Game of Thrones type show is on, you can be

1748
01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:07,920
Speaker 1: a part of the conversation week by week, but also

1749
01:22:07,960 --> 01:22:10,000
Speaker 1: there always will be people who are taking it in

1750
01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:14,240
Speaker 1: later in drips and drabs and like it's no longer

1751
01:22:14,680 --> 01:22:19,280
Speaker 1: like weird or inappropriate or unacceptable in whatever, like whatever

1752
01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:23,439
Speaker 1: the real life emotional experience that Jim Gaffigan was speaking to,

1753
01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:24,479
Speaker 1: and he's like.

1754
01:22:24,840 --> 01:22:27,479
Speaker 4: Nobody wants to talk about heat with me, but I

1755
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:28,519
Speaker 4: want to talk about it.

1756
01:22:28,880 --> 01:22:31,719
Speaker 1: But now there's like that isn't as much so because

1757
01:22:31,760 --> 01:22:35,040
Speaker 1: of how fractured and compartmentalized pop culture.

1758
01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:38,280
Speaker 3: And there's probably a heat there's probably a heat reddit.

1759
01:22:39,160 --> 01:22:42,599
Speaker 2: Oh yes, Like sometimes when I play a video game

1760
01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:46,360
Speaker 2: or something, you know, whichever way the computers are monitoring

1761
01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:49,720
Speaker 2: in my life, they'll like suggest at the end of

1762
01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:52,760
Speaker 2: the day, I always get the Reddit email that suggests like, hey,

1763
01:22:52,880 --> 01:22:55,240
Speaker 2: you might be into this. If you're into this, and

1764
01:22:55,560 --> 01:22:58,479
Speaker 2: says it can't tell me pornography, it just tells me

1765
01:22:58,720 --> 01:23:00,000
Speaker 2: likes other stuff on my phone.

1766
01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:04,679
Speaker 3: So it's like a heat or this video game sworn

1767
01:23:04,840 --> 01:23:05,680
Speaker 3: or hate these like.

1768
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:09,479
Speaker 2: You like that, right and so so yeah that the

1769
01:23:09,600 --> 01:23:13,080
Speaker 2: game five years old and there's people making comments every day,

1770
01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:17,160
Speaker 2: and it's like, what about this very specific niche element

1771
01:23:17,520 --> 01:23:20,600
Speaker 2: of this game? So yeah, if you want to have

1772
01:23:20,680 --> 01:23:24,320
Speaker 2: a conversation, My point being like, there's constantly a conversation. Now,

1773
01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:27,879
Speaker 2: the conversations don't need because we don't have the tentpole anymore.

1774
01:23:28,400 --> 01:23:30,640
Speaker 3: The conversation is the tentpole, right like.

1775
01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:32,360
Speaker 2: Because that's what a lot of people are doing all

1776
01:23:32,400 --> 01:23:35,439
Speaker 2: this for anyway, so you can always go back and

1777
01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:38,360
Speaker 2: rejoin it or whatever. My My main issue is more

1778
01:23:38,439 --> 01:23:42,920
Speaker 2: that I realize, much like the protagonists to pluralists, I

1779
01:23:43,040 --> 01:23:45,679
Speaker 2: kind of hate people, even though I kind of need people,

1780
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:48,400
Speaker 2: So I don't really I don't really be that interested

1781
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:51,200
Speaker 2: in anyone's So I'm like, these are the thoughts that

1782
01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:53,519
Speaker 2: I have are the best thoughts about the thing. And

1783
01:23:53,640 --> 01:23:56,680
Speaker 2: then when I include other people, now I'm taking a

1784
01:23:56,760 --> 01:23:59,160
Speaker 2: risk that their thoughts will not be as cool as

1785
01:23:59,200 --> 01:23:59,679
Speaker 2: my thoughts.

1786
01:24:00,720 --> 01:24:00,960
Speaker 3: Rod.

1787
01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:04,320
Speaker 1: That's really funny and makes a lot of sense and

1788
01:24:04,520 --> 01:24:08,000
Speaker 1: makes me wonder, do you know the comedian Drew Michael? No?

1789
01:24:08,280 --> 01:24:10,960
Speaker 4: I did not know Michael. I think you'll I think

1790
01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:12,200
Speaker 4: you'll really dig him.

1791
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:15,080
Speaker 1: He has two specials on HBO, one of which was

1792
01:24:15,160 --> 01:24:19,240
Speaker 1: performed in front of no audience and one of which

1793
01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:22,920
Speaker 1: is performed in front of an audience, and also is

1794
01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:24,479
Speaker 1: It's It's just he's.

1795
01:24:24,360 --> 01:24:28,880
Speaker 4: A really creative, brilliant artist of comedy. And he has

1796
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:31,040
Speaker 4: just one one joke that I'm gonna paraphrase.

1797
01:24:31,160 --> 01:24:34,040
Speaker 3: Okay, but Mike, before you before you say that, just yeah,

1798
01:24:34,320 --> 01:24:34,840
Speaker 3: how about this.

1799
01:24:35,800 --> 01:24:38,360
Speaker 2: Someone's got a perform where they're in the crowd by

1800
01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:40,240
Speaker 2: themselves and the audience is on the stage.

1801
01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:42,880
Speaker 3: Okay, go ahead, Yeah, I like it.

1802
01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:46,519
Speaker 1: Okay, So Drew Michael has a joke from many years

1803
01:24:46,560 --> 01:24:50,280
Speaker 1: ago where he's like, I went on a date and

1804
01:24:50,760 --> 01:24:55,439
Speaker 1: I had a good time, but that's because I was there.

1805
01:24:56,560 --> 01:25:00,320
Speaker 3: Of course, I killed my half good. I was yeah,

1806
01:25:01,439 --> 01:25:03,880
Speaker 3: I was hey you no, I was handling my shit them.

1807
01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:06,120
Speaker 3: I don't know. They might not be a second date

1808
01:25:06,200 --> 01:25:09,720
Speaker 3: for them. I love me, but yeah it is.

1809
01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:12,800
Speaker 2: But it is interesting other people like at least that's

1810
01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:15,000
Speaker 2: the problem I've ran into. It's like I realized that

1811
01:25:16,080 --> 01:25:19,720
Speaker 2: so much of what I associate the conversation with is

1812
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,560
Speaker 2: has become negative because I think of the places that

1813
01:25:23,640 --> 01:25:24,120
Speaker 2: it happens.

1814
01:25:24,160 --> 01:25:25,400
Speaker 3: I actually think the.

1815
01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:29,840
Speaker 2: Mediums reward flattening, They reward bad faith. They reward like

1816
01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:32,559
Speaker 2: hot takes that are gonna get a lot of attention,

1817
01:25:32,880 --> 01:25:36,080
Speaker 2: you know, stuff like that is a different Yeah, So

1818
01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:40,040
Speaker 2: it's not really like when I do have conversations normally

1819
01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:42,880
Speaker 2: like this on our podcast or with a friend or

1820
01:25:42,960 --> 01:25:47,320
Speaker 2: something where there's like a buy in, Because I mean,

1821
01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:49,760
Speaker 2: I'm sure people can hate everything all the time as

1822
01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:51,160
Speaker 2: much as it seems, but I'm.

1823
01:25:51,080 --> 01:25:53,800
Speaker 3: Like, can you really or is it just like this

1824
01:25:54,040 --> 01:25:55,000
Speaker 3: is a hateful place?

1825
01:25:55,560 --> 01:25:57,759
Speaker 2: And if you were to pop on here and be like, guys,

1826
01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:04,920
Speaker 2: I love basketball, like, uh, okay, weirdo. You okay, you weirdo,

1827
01:26:06,160 --> 01:26:07,280
Speaker 2: go play basketball?

1828
01:26:07,360 --> 01:26:10,000
Speaker 4: Then you love it so much? Why don't you ever

1829
01:26:10,040 --> 01:26:14,160
Speaker 4: read basketball? Like Tom Tom Hanks did on That Island?

1830
01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:15,639
Speaker 3: Who else?

1831
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:20,080
Speaker 4: But the I think your point earlier.

1832
01:26:20,400 --> 01:26:23,240
Speaker 1: I feel like the message here, the main theme is

1833
01:26:23,400 --> 01:26:26,720
Speaker 1: like be the algorithm that you want to create and

1834
01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:30,439
Speaker 1: curate in your own life, because like Reddit, you know,

1835
01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:32,559
Speaker 1: for some Reddit is a cesspool and.

1836
01:26:32,920 --> 01:26:36,160
Speaker 4: For Renie Reenie has she has so many.

1837
01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:40,719
Speaker 1: Subreddits that she subscribes to, or is you know, checks

1838
01:26:40,800 --> 01:26:43,720
Speaker 1: in on on a you know, damn weekly or how

1839
01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:46,360
Speaker 1: we're frequently basis, and like they're all like the most

1840
01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:51,720
Speaker 1: heartwarming ones, like people like saving stuffed animals you know

1841
01:26:52,040 --> 01:26:55,800
Speaker 1: from like you know, destruction. People like there's one she

1842
01:26:55,960 --> 01:26:59,919
Speaker 1: just found the other day. It's like, uh old person Facebook.

1843
01:27:00,200 --> 01:27:01,920
Speaker 1: I think it's the name of it. And it's just

1844
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:07,880
Speaker 1: like screenshots of people's older relatives, like misusing Facebook in

1845
01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:08,719
Speaker 1: funny ways.

1846
01:27:09,080 --> 01:27:11,280
Speaker 3: Like somebody posted is she is she on?

1847
01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:12,120
Speaker 6: What is this?

1848
01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:15,120
Speaker 3: What is this snake? Because I'm telling you she's missing out,

1849
01:27:15,240 --> 01:27:16,759
Speaker 3: She's not what is this snake?

1850
01:27:16,920 --> 01:27:18,160
Speaker 4: What is this snake?

1851
01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:22,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a wholesome reddit that is just people that

1852
01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:25,240
Speaker 2: take pictures of snakes and they're like, what is this snake?

1853
01:27:25,640 --> 01:27:28,680
Speaker 3: And then people just tell you like this is the snake.

1854
01:27:28,439 --> 01:27:28,840
Speaker 1: That it is.

1855
01:27:29,400 --> 01:27:32,400
Speaker 2: I now can recognize so many snakes.

1856
01:27:32,479 --> 01:27:34,519
Speaker 5: Yeah he know a good noodle from a non noodle.

1857
01:27:34,680 --> 01:27:34,880
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1858
01:27:35,080 --> 01:27:38,080
Speaker 3: Well no, they're called people call him danger noodles. I'm sorry.

1859
01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:40,760
Speaker 2: But and then the ones that aren't, the ones that

1860
01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:44,000
Speaker 2: aren't venomous and BITI we call them snake friends. But honestly,

1861
01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:47,120
Speaker 2: almost any snake can bite, and you shouldn't just handle

1862
01:27:47,200 --> 01:27:48,400
Speaker 2: them if you don't know, if.

1863
01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:49,040
Speaker 3: It's not your snake.

01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:51,760
Speaker 1: and they're like balding. They've got scraggly hair and they're like,

1892
01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:09,840
Speaker 1: and it's just a super supportive vibe. Here's the best

1893
01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:13,960
Speaker 1: one from the old person Facebook that Reny shared with me,

1894
01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:17,400
Speaker 1: if I can remember it correctly. It was somebody, an

1895
01:29:17,439 --> 01:29:21,919
Speaker 1: older person went onto the Applebee's, like just the overall

1896
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:25,679
Speaker 1: Applebee's Facebook page and said.

1897
01:29:25,600 --> 01:29:28,439
Speaker 3: Like, I'm at I'm at.

1898
01:29:28,439 --> 01:29:32,200
Speaker 4: Your restaurant and I'm looking. I can't find my nephew.

1899
01:29:32,760 --> 01:29:36,639
Speaker 1: He said he was here, And then Applebee's wrote back

1900
01:29:36,720 --> 01:29:40,880
Speaker 1: and was like, we have a like over nineteen hundred locations.

1901
01:29:40,960 --> 01:29:43,960
Speaker 4: Can you tell us which one you're at? And she's like, oh,

01:29:55,320 --> 01:29:59,639
Speaker 3: That's beautiful, man, Listen, honestly, I think we can take

1906
01:29:59,640 --> 01:29:59,880

01:30:00,680 --> 01:30:01,479
Speaker 5: That was beautiful.

1908
01:30:01,600 --> 01:30:03,559
