That's actually culture number eight four three? 10 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 1: To watch that fucking music vide where she's in that 11 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,520 Speaker 1: futuristic subway station. Do you know what I'm talking about? 12 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 1: Do I know what you're talking about? Absolutely? In that 13 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: video insane? That was actually, at the time really a 14 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: rebirth of Janet. Absolutely, And it was right when I 15 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: moved to the U s from Canada and I grew 16 00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: up famously grew up without cable and I was got 17 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: to sleep with a bunch of boys and we stayed 18 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: up and watched MTV all night and that video came 19 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: on and that was that was a culture that made 20 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: me think culture was for me, because it's a culture. 21 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: But then that was also like this is classic queer narrative, 22 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 1: young queer narrative where you're out of sleepover your with 23 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: your gender. Let's say for first this game of course 24 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: gender only, gender only, and then you gender exclusive. Gender exclusive. 25 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: Slumber parties were huge culture nineties. But then that video 26 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: came on with two one, and I just remember everyone 27 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: was like, she's so hot, and I was like, yeah, 28 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: but also what what what? What else is that? Yeah? 29 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: Exactly what else? What else? It's it's it's the UCB 30 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: thing of if this is true? What else is a 31 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 1: number sixteen? It's the UCB thing? If this is true? 32 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: What else is true? And I love saying that like 33 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: a damn drag queen. Um speaking of playing at the 34 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: top of your intelligence, honey, Yes, um, So basically, honey, 35 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: let me say it's actually no surprise is that we're 36 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: talking about this sort of late nineties cost because I 37 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: will say, last night at the event and by the 38 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 1: event of course, me and Seek Culture Live, we're recording 39 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: this to day after we performed a song called to 40 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: Become One by the Spice Girls, by One the Spice 41 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 1: Girls or by five the Spice written by Emma Bunton. 42 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: She did not I was just told today that Emma 43 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: wrote that song. Kid, there's no way to verify it. 44 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: But there is literally no way to verify who wrote 45 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: this song. It's lost to the sands of time. We'll 46 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: never know it's it's it's it's ancient knowledge. But wow, 47 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: And actually that would make a lot of sense to 48 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 1: me because I did hear. I do think it's Spice 49 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 1: Girls culture that they did write a lot of their songs. 50 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: And also that song iconically has that like little like 51 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 1: last verse, which is like be a little bit wiser baby, 52 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: put it on, Put it on. Because the Spice Girls 53 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: were all about they were ahead of their time. They 54 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 1: were about feminism, they were about girl power, supporting each other, individuality, 55 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: and they were also about safe sex, honey, and they 56 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: were about calling a black person scary. I think they 57 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: bravely called her scary because she did have the scary 58 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: energy and they said, we're not going to shy away 59 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: from the fact. Also that they did not coin their 60 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: own names. It was this journalist who gave them all 61 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 1: those names. You're kidding, you know, it was a journalist. 62 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: Like they just come out with the video I think 63 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: you want to be had just come out and then 64 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: this music journalist in the UK like assigned them the 65 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: names just like kind of like, Okay, well now I 66 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: don't love that really, but then but then they like 67 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: owned it, they like took those titles and like really 68 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: like I think that I think that they were all 69 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: absolutely names.

Actually we were on Maud 194 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: at the same time. It was just like the Catherine 195 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: of of Old. I saw my first monment. I saw 196 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 1: you did a mermaid sketch, and I was like, it 197 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 1: was suddenly about like figuring out why mermaids are hot 198 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: or something. I have no idea on a rolling thing 199 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: like wearing a mermaid tail. And I turned my friend 200 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: and I was like, wait, that guy's hot, and she 201 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: was like gay and I was like, tragic you were 202 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 1: talking about that's so kind um. But to be called 203 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 1: hot on the UCB stage actually is huge because I 204 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: was once in the audience and looking up at people 205 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: and being like, you know, when you get like a 206 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: little show crush, it's usually for me how they look 207 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: in pants. Yeah, I will sometimes get horny watching shows 208 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: because actually in the book in the handbook, you're not 209 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: allowed to wear shorts. Yeah exactly wrote that. Yeah, yeah, great, 210 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: and we have no choice but to honor him. Yeah, 211 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: we actually have.

Well, actually it's I believe it's a 214 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: there were cultiple movies. This is literally called mogul Cake. 215 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: Cannon is directing a film called Dell and Sharna, and 216 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 1: it's going to be about the origins of improv as 217 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: we know, got it, got it? Yeah, the film that 218 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,559 Speaker 1: we never knew we needed. Honestly, if it means an 219 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 1: improv revival, the great I missed that every now and then, really, 220 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: I really do. I missed the culture of like just 221 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 1: why because there is something fun about something completely disposable 222 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: and like there's no thread to follow with this. It's 223 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: not like you do like like like a stand up 224 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 1: show that has like a specific premise to it, and 225 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: then you like mind material out of that. It's it's nothing, 226 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: it's just you do it. It's trash, it's worthless. Everyone's 227 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: on the same page about how this is all you 228 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: believe it for the moment, and that's that. I kind 229 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: of miss it. I will say there was something very 230 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: there was something always very fun and always like blew 231 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: me away.

The first time 332 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: I saw them was a chin kachin Ka ching late 333 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: night show Thursdays at ucbast May she rest in peace. 334 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: And I remember just being like, okay, hot guys and 335 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: the boys. They's the thing is, it's like you essentially 336 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: are powerless to men who are attractive, and then when 337 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: all that, when they are funny and oh my unfortunately 338 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: is overwhelming. Don't get me. I mean, if we want 339 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 1: to name names, it's that this has been, this will be. 340 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: My legacy is just hooking up with comedians. That's great. Honestly, 341 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: I wish no, no, because I feel like you can 342 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: isn't hooking up with comedians is dicey unless if you 343 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 1: don't have the proper like coping mechanisms around, which now 344 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: I do because I'm in therapy right exactly. But it's 345 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 1: so it was frustrating as a gay man to want 346 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: to get your nut so badly with some of these 347 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: straight male comedians, and then afterwards you're like, why why why? 348 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: But there are so many hotay comedians now, and can 349 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: I tell you, I'm thankful for that visibility as well. 350 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, thank you gay comedians.

Up there, and we can objectify 353 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: you equally ejectify a Gamail comedian absolutely from doing that, 354 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: we can all see a Matail lane.

But I I just like couldn't. 383 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 1: I never acted on it because I had been burned 384 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: before Sam Tagger and I had had a whole song 385 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 1: where I was like I'm in love with you and 386 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: he was like, I'm so sorry. I don't know what 387 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: to say that. And then we stopped talking for six 388 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: months and then we like we're friends again. You needed 389 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: the space, we need the space. And then now we're 390 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: better friends than ever. Yeah, I mean this is this 391 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 1: life is long, life is things happen. I'm trying to 392 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 1: think who who did I like absolutely have a crush on. Honestly, 393 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: I will say I saw Thomas middle Ditch back in 394 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,239 Speaker 1: the day where I was just like, this man is 395 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: a magician, and it was fully the hottest thing I've 396 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 1: ever seen. I remember, I'll never forget like watching an 397 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: old show. Josh Reuben sorry and Josh Ruben sorry. Well, 398 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: And I will also say I literally took Brandon Gardner's 399 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:05,880 Speaker 1: two O one because I was in love with him 400 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 1: his arms wait wait wait yeah yah yeah yeah. And 401 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: then honestly like he had that something quiet like improv 402 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: sense energy where I was just like, you are hot 403 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 1: and I couldn't actually perform in his class. I was 404 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: actually had such a crush on him. And then I 405 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: remember he would do the thing where he was like 406 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 1: selecting students to make like a little indie teams. Never 407 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: mind he picked he picked SUITI to be on one 408 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: of his indie teams, and he did not I was 409 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: not graced with this, and I was just like, well, 410 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: he doesn't like me. He doesn't have a crush on 411 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,239 Speaker 1: me the way that boy doesn't like me the way 412 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 1: I like him. Was indie teams for advanced studies, he 413 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: would just he would just like make it just was 414 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: the thing. It was like, you know, like when I 415 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: think when some teachers would like see that there was 416 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: talent in their classes, they would say, hey, you should 417 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: actually do this, be on a team and be good 418 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 1: at it. But regardless, like I remember Middle Ditch, I 419 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: talked about this all the time. I saw him do 420 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: a scene with Frank Glaspie where the played the sun 421 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: in the moon and I was just like, these people 422 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: are the best at this I've ever seen, and I've 423 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 1: just just the thing the world's that Middle Ditch would create. 424 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: No surprise to me that he has gone on to 425 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: the success he has. And also the thing about the 426 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: thing that I missed so much about the UCB Chelsea 427 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 1: Space is it was able to create amazing actors. I 428 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: think because the space was so small close to the 429 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: stage that you could do something really small and it 430 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 1: would get a reaction. And so no performer that was 431 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: was there thought like, oh I have to really do 432 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: too much. Like they were encouraged to make those little 433 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: small things, and I think that's why it's created such 434 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 1: and those are people who are good actors on camera 435 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: because you don't have to be big, you know what 436 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: I mean. But that's not the new space does not 437 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: have that advantage. No, it does not. It's kind of 438 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 1: just it encourages a different kind of performance, a very 439 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: big performer. I sometimes wonder if I was on a 440 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: team there now if I do better because I'm I 441 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: struggled with being too big sometimes too But listen, it's 442 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 1: never not a bad thing to have energy. It's not 443 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 1: a bad thing. But also, what I love about you 444 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: is you are in control of you. The Mary Beth 445 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: Brown vibe is you come to me, but the Marybeth 446 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: Thrown vibe. This is what's so stunning is that it's 447 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: it's it's on one. It's consistent the entire time. There's 448 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: no like every now and then they'll be like a 449 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: little flare up. It's beautiful. It's all intentional. It's you're 450 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: in control of it. But I'm just like that takes patience, 451 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: and that takes practice, and that takes like a discipline, 452 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: and I admire that. Thank you. It's definitely I've I've 453 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: wavered on it in certain moments to be like, well, 454 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: I could just be like big and just like tell 455 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 1: hacky jokes and have an amazing career. You know, I 456 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: think we all I don't know about you guys, but 457 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 1: I think for me as a one. I could just 458 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: do the expected and like everything would work out. But 459 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 1: I've chosen to do me, and I don't want to 460 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 1: be like, oh, the way I've chosen it so hard. 461 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: That's not how I feel. It's just like sometimes I'm like, yeah, 462 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,880 Speaker 1: this is what I chose and this is what I'm doing, 463 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: But I do you know, it's it's been pretty consistent, 464 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: and I would say since the beginning, because it's truly 465 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: like me on stage and off stage are not that different. 466 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 1: But it's yeah, it's I've definitely found in the last 467 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 1: year that I've I think I've hit my sweet spot 468 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: with performing on stage and that feels really good. I'm 469 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: sure I'll get better, of course, but it's it's I 470 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: feel like good about where I'm at. You've been popping off. 471 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 1: I thank you. Who do you Who do you like 472 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: when you were growing up? Like we'll ask you the 473 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: actual question, but like who are your like? Comedic influences? 474 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 1: I'm curious as a kids like growing up, like who 475 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: are you like? I feel like something about that is right. Well, 476 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: I have five older siblings and three brothers, two sisters, 477 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: so I feel like I was exposed to a lot 478 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: of like more mature culture as a kid. I mean 479 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: I still had my like Mary Kay and Ashley Spice girls, 480 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 1: Hilary Duff. Those were all the points of angry. Yeah. 481 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 1: But then, I mean, we always watched a lot of 482 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 1: Comedy Central. We watched a lot of Chris Farley movies. 483 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 1: My dad loved comedies, so we would listen to like 484 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 1: Steve Martin records, we watched I don't out. We would 485 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 1: watch a lot of old SNL Like. I think those 486 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: things were really important as a kid, just absorbing it 487 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: and not even really knowing that. And then you know, 488 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 1: I remember, and my mom will deny this, probably actually 489 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: she might not, but when I was little, she was 490 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: like female comedians, they all they do is talk about 491 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: their periods. They're just not funny. And I never forgot 492 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 1: that because I mean, it's just such an insane thought 493 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: to have. But I so now I don't really do 494 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: period jokes. Your mom is Eliza. My mom is Eliza. 495 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: She looks amazing for her, she looks absolutely incredible. One 496 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: thing you can't take away from a one thing you 497 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,199 Speaker 1: can't take away. But I did internalize that a little bit. 498 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: I mean I never thought comedy could be a career, 499 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: and there just weren't that many women doing it. You know, 500 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,119 Speaker 1: you would see women doing it on SNL, but I 501 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: never I fell into comedy. I didn't. Actually, I wasn't 502 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: like a I wanted to be an actress or a 503 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: pop star when I was younger of one of the two, 504 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 1: and I didn't care which one because it seemed very glamorous. 505 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: I still don't care which one. I still want to 506 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 1: be an actress. That will happen, and I don't care 507 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: which one. Someone who's a pop star, I can tell 508 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 1: you that it's it's the same. But then I just 509 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: was like, it's not realistic. So I didn't even I mean, 510 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: I never even saw an improv show when I signed 511 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: a prim one and one. But you just was that 512 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 1: just you being like, oh I don't Willie Narly, I'll 513 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: just do it, or was that you being like I'll 514 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: try this out.

It's this like the 589 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: worst thing. It's this platform where you like a sign 590 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: projects and you update status. You make everything into tasks 591 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: and then you move them into different like buckets, and 592 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: this is the opposite of comedy.

Uh So I just realized in that 601 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: through that experience, like I don't care right now about 602 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 1: money because clearly making more of it's not going to 603 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: make me enjoy my job. So I just want to 604 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: do what I want to do beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, 605 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: honestly worth it. Yeah.

Remember I went 659 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: to the tour, It is like you can't stop talking 660 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: about how beautiful it is and like cathedrals, and it 661 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: really is such like a it's such like a trap 662 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: for white parents from the suburb, you know what I mean, 663 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: Like if you can afford to take your kid there 664 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: and you go there, it's so beautiful and it's so 665 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 1: like white. It's a good school, like it makes I 666 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: think in terms of academics. It's on top of that, 667 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: I think it makes some okay boomers feel you know 668 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 1: what I'm safest, but I'll tell you what. They don't 669 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: have their culture. Culture. Um, I think any people are 670 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: made a funny joke about Boston College because she gave 671 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: some speech at Harvard and she was famous alumna. She 672 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: she goes I went to Boston College, which some say 673 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: is the Harvard oft. I think it's such a funny thing. 674 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 1: That is very good bringing it back to UCB. Okay, 675 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 1: should asked Mary read the question we have actually even 676 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 1: floating around around now we should actually attack. Um, you 677 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: asked it. Okay, so Mary with room, what was the 678 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: culture that made you say culture was for you? This 679 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: is the culture that when you looked out the window, 680 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: it was the one cloud in the sky and you 681 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: were like, m I see that cloud filling up and 682 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 1: it will rain down on failing up. Yeah, the first 683 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 1: culture and whatnot? The first culture I saw and said 684 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: that was definitely Mary Kayton culture. My god, can you 685 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: believe it's first time we have discussed Mary culture. I mean, well, 686 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: it was like it was the perfect storm. Because I 687 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: was young when they were playing Michelle on I mean 688 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 1: I think those might have even been reruns at that point. 689 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: But my older siblings would watch show because it's a 690 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: family comedy, and I was just like, who are these 691 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: just amazingly talented actresses. They're playing one character between the 692 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 1: two of them, and that I've never seen that before. 693 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: You never know who you were. It truly did, and 694 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: I know it's because of child labor laws so they 695 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: could get more out of the kids and they didn't 696 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 1: have to, I guess, take as many breaks. But then 697 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, Mary Kayton Nashley, for me was like they 698 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: really came at you from all angles. They had to 699 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: sleep over series, they had will Solve Any Crime by 700 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 1: dinner time, they had the fan club, they had feature films. 701 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,319 Speaker 1: Someone to theaters, not a lot of them, but then 702 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: some of them went straight in New York minute and 703 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: I think It Takes Two is in theaters as well. 704 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: Actually Takes Two is actually very good culture formative and listen. 705 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: So I performed It Takes Two as a one woman's 706 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,839 Speaker 1: show at the Slipper Room in June on the eve 707 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 1: of the Also Twins birthday, and it was so much fun. 708 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: But it was like it was such a passion project 709 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: for me because I wanted to at forever. I know, 710 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 1: the movies start to finish all the lines anyway. But 711 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,319 Speaker 1: when I was little, I used to freak out when 712 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: my parents would go to dinner, like when they would 713 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 1: leave me with the babysitter. I was just like, don't go. 714 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 1: I have attachment issues. But that's for another podcast. Uh. 715 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 1: And I remember one night my mom was like, well, 716 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 1: we got you a president's surprised, like we're you know, 717 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: for while we're gone, And I was like, what is it? 718 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: And she was like, well, who are your favorite celebrities? 719 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 1: And I was like four, and I didn't really know 720 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 1: what that meant, but she was like, she gave me 721 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: the hs if it takes two. So I would watch 722 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: that movie to fall asleep. I've probably seen it hundreds 723 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,879 Speaker 1: and hundreds of times, and it just for me that 724 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 1: they were just it, you know, Mary, Kate, Mary Beth. 725 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: I felt very connected and even though as she was 726 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 1: more of the fashion one, it's just like, I don't know, 727 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 1: for me at that age, it was just like, oh 728 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: my god, this is it. Also, they were very good 729 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 1: in that, and I will say there's a couple of 730 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:53,760 Speaker 1: kind of things about that movie. One the chemistry between 731 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,879 Speaker 1: Gutenberg and Kirst Listen, we we have our thoughts about 732 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: Kirst Alley. Now we wish her well on her journey 733 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: and we hope that that we hope that works itself out. 734 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,440 Speaker 1: What are you talking about, Well, she's a scientology and 735 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:11,800 Speaker 1: very much but but you can't argue that absolutely iconic, 736 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 1: comedic actress and her in Gutenberg in the water when 737 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 1: when his shirt gets stucked it he's so hot, He's 738 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 1: literally so hot. Gutenberg is, I would let him crush me, 739 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 1: and so no, I really would to this day. And um, 740 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,400 Speaker 1: Kirsty Alley and then they were so amazing the chemistry 741 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 1: between them and also the iconic. I always love a 742 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:45,879 Speaker 1: good white bitch girlfriend. Yeah, she was iconic. Diet coke 743 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 1: coming up. I love the delivery of like because you know, 744 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 1: it's like the actress made the choice, like I need 745 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: to keep my way with for even longer, and she 746 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 1: just goes with that is masterful. And she's at the 747 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 1: telescope and that's after the gum has been spitting her hair, 748 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:08,000 Speaker 1: so she's short hair. Oh my god, I'm telling you 749 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 1: you need especially it's a rule of culture. You need 750 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 1: a good white bitch girlfriend number thirty three. Oh my god, 751 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: I'm telling you she was iconic, and I wish that 752 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 1: she booked more. And you know what's fun about that 753 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: movie is, and I've said this before, it's the parent 754 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: chop without the science. Yeah, they're identical strangers and it 755 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 1: has never explained also the line of strangers, and it's 756 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 1: like what and you just fully accept it. And here's 757 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,879 Speaker 1: the realty. They're not identical. They're not. They're fraternal, which 758 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 1: a lot of people don't know. And my sister fought 759 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 1: me tooth and nail on this and she said, I 760 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 1: bet you can't tell them apart. She held a picture, 761 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 1: held up several pictures, and I could tell them apart 762 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,279 Speaker 1: every time. What are the defining difference just in terms 763 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,480 Speaker 1: of like how the the egg gets fertilized?

Well, Ashley, Ashley's face 769 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 1: is a little longer and they have a slightly different 770 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: nose and there. I mean, it's just their faces are 771 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 1: slightly different. It's very subtle. And you know, and when 772 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 1: they were twelve or eight or however old they were 773 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,879 Speaker 1: in that movie, wasn't like so noticeable, right, They've since 774 00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: grown into quite different. Yes, how do you feel about 775 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 1: them now? Like, how do you feel about them now? 776 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 1: How they exist as people? I am just happy that 777 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,720 Speaker 1: they seem to be as well adjusted as they possibly 778 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: can be. Youngest billionaires in the world they were when 779 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,720 Speaker 1: they their dual star production companies. I know they changed 780 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,280 Speaker 1: smoked cigarettes and they both date like fift year olds. 781 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 1: I'm just happy they get through the day. I'm probably 782 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:52,400 Speaker 1: them for getting through the day. And you know, I'm 783 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,400 Speaker 1: actually happy they stuck to their guns and didn't do 784 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 1: that full house reboot and they and they have their 785 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,879 Speaker 1: fashion line which keeps them busy, and I think that's great. 786 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 1: But also, yeah, you're right about there is something to 787 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 1: be said about how and yeah, let's just use the 788 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 1: term ill adjusted. I'm not not that that was I'm 789 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 1: just like, is that the right term? But yeah, that's 790 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:13,439 Speaker 1: because I would say and to draw comparison to like 791 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: a lohand it's like, yeah, like that could have gone, 792 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 1: that could have swung so far in a bad direction, 793 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 1: and they seem to be doing great. They had one 794 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: of them. Which one of them? They both one of 795 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 1: them had bowls full of cigarettes at her wedding. At 796 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 1: her wedding, which one was that Mary Kay? Think it 797 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: was Mary Kay. She just cart like cartons of cigarettes 798 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,839 Speaker 1: at her wedding. And which one was on weeds? Oh, 799 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 1: one of them was on weeds. I remember. It was 800 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 1: like iconic that one of them was doing something without 801 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 1: the other. It was probably Mary Kay. She seems to 802 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 1: be the one that goes rogue. Are we fans of 803 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: Elizabeth Olsen Yessan just only recently saw Ingrid Goes West. Oh, 804 00:39:56,719 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 1: very good. I loved the entire thing. It's in. Elizabeth 805 00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 1: is incredible and she's actually iconic in it plays plays 806 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,399 Speaker 1: that part of the influencer so well and makes you 807 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: actually very fascinating performance because you've seen this right, like 808 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 1: because you get that she's like a little bit of 809 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,839 Speaker 1: a ridiculous person, but then when you meet her, you're 810 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 1: also like, you can't hate her, No, you can't, because 811 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 1: she's also trying hard and has the same insecurities. And 812 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:27,239 Speaker 1: it's like as her character gets flushed out more, even 813 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 1: towards the end where she's like telling spoiler alert, where 814 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: she's telling every Plaza like this is crazy, like you 815 00:40:34,120 --> 00:40:36,840 Speaker 1: are on her side, but also she is helping create 816 00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:42,560 Speaker 1: an environment that that really traumatizes people that look up 817 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 1: to people like right right, And so it was I 818 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: thought that was one of the best movies of the 819 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: past few years, that it was so good and it 820 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,240 Speaker 1: was so truthful, like the writing. I don't know everything 821 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 1: about it, just blue. It's stunned me really because I 822 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 1: didn't know what to expect going into it. When I 823 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: watched it, I thought it was that none movie that 824 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 1: Abby Plaza had been in, So this was truly different 825 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: than what I was expecting, very different films. Also, Um, 826 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: that was incredible. That was like I was always like 827 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: a little bit of an Aubrey Plaza skeptic because I 828 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: kind of I'm kind of like hesitant about the kind 829 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 1: of like dead pan like thing that she always seemed 830 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 1: to do. And then as she's grown into an like 831 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 1: an actress capital, I am into it. And also she 832 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 1: was very good on that effect show with the superhero show. 833 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 1: H Um, you know the one what the guy from 834 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 1: Downton Abbey, I don't know that one. It was like, yeah, yeah, 835 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:39,399 Speaker 1: I'm forgetting the name. But she she played essentially played 836 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:43,439 Speaker 1: the villain on it, and it's very good. She gives 837 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:50,240 Speaker 1: some very performances nowadays, and she could fucking sob like nobody. 838 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 1: That movie was amazing and also I really liked the 839 00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 1: way it ended, so spoiler alert, but basically, like Ingrid 840 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,560 Speaker 1: is trying to become social media fans in the way 841 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 1: that Elizabeth Olsen is social media famous. And Elizabeth Olson 842 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:05,799 Speaker 1: is very much like that sunny girl in the hat 843 00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 1: that's like iced coffee today, iced Queen never or something 844 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: stupid like I'm happy and like and like she's like 845 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:21,839 Speaker 1: kind of like I'm happy. Bitches, Yeah, it's happy. But 846 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 1: um so, basically, uh, Aubrey Plas is very mentally ill, 847 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 1: and she um there's like an attempt on her own 848 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 1: life and she she posts a video. She posts a 849 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 1: video and is like, um, basically kind of becomes like 850 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 1: a symbol of like I'm I need help and and 851 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm really struggling, and she unsuccessfully tries to tick her 852 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,360 Speaker 1: own life, wakes up, sees that she has become like 853 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,640 Speaker 1: an icon in this way, and her face lights up 854 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 1: and you realize, like, wow, she hasn't actually changed. It's 855 00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 1: it's not a happy ending. I would say, no, there, 856 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 1: it's not necessarily happy. It's a comment I think, yes, 857 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 1: I on the deep sickness that we all have when 858 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:00,880 Speaker 1: it comes to social media on more than others. But 859 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,400 Speaker 1: fascinating movie I thought very timely, like I would I 860 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 1: would even say, like, really missed a screenplay nomination and 861 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:11,239 Speaker 1: just like it did not get the praises. I mean 862 00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 1: they were there have been. I feel this way about 863 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 1: like a handful of movies over the last few years, 864 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:17,480 Speaker 1: but that movie specifically just did not get to play 865 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,240 Speaker 1: it deserves. That could be the It's not a mean girls, 866 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 1: but it's like it should have the icon status of 867 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 1: like a movie that truly defines our time. It defines 868 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 1: I think it's the for me. It feels like the earliest, 869 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 1: not the earliest, but one of the bigger artistic statements 870 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 1: about this generation in social media, just the way that 871 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 1: people relate to it. I think it got something so 872 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 1: so right. Well. That production company Neon, they're starting to 873 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 1: pop off, and I think it was one of their 874 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,640 Speaker 1: first things. And I think, you know, as that production 875 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 1: company and whoever is working there is obviously finding really 876 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: interesting scripts and really producing great stuff. It feels like 877 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:52,800 Speaker 1: they'll start to pop off even more. I believe that 878 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 1: year they also did that twentieth Century Women. Yea, so 879 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 1: they they're telling female stories. And you know, I think 880 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 1: a large reason why maybe Ingrid Goes West didn't get 881 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:05,920 Speaker 1: the attention that that maybe should have is because of 882 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,840 Speaker 1: about young women, and it's about social media, which I 883 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 1: think people are yeah, yeah, and they think, well, we 884 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,800 Speaker 1: can't necessarily take this seriously. But I mean, then again, 885 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,359 Speaker 1: you have The Social Network, which I think is one 886 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 1: of the movies people took the most seriously over the 887 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:24,839 Speaker 1: last ten years, and when I saw it, I was like, 888 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,399 Speaker 1: very taken with it. And now with what Facebook has 889 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 1: become in the narrative now, it's it's so interesting. I 890 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 1: almost would like to see not Aaron Sorkin do this, 891 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 1: se to that, because I mean, it's the narrative of 892 00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 1: Facebook now is completely changed and more from what it 893 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:46,399 Speaker 1: was when that movie came. Right. Um, but the OLSA, 894 00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 1: so you do you identify with me Mary Kate More, 895 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:54,240 Speaker 1: you would say, I guess like they both because they're geminis. 896 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 1: I'm a gemini. That was always a huge deal to 897 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 1: me as well. I feel like, I don't know, I 898 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 1: think I have like shades of both. But it was 899 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 1: really I think it was good to grow up as 900 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,960 Speaker 1: a young girl in the early nineties because there were 901 00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 1: so many like powerful iconic women at that time. Like 902 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,000 Speaker 1: I didn't know as a kid that like women were 903 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,359 Speaker 1: still struggling, you know what I mean. And I was like, Oh, 904 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: everything's fixed, like there's no issues. I didn't have that 905 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: like consciousness till I grew up a little bit more. 906 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 1: But it was like you had the Spice Girls, Britney 907 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,880 Speaker 1: Spears was huge, like Christine Aguilera, even like the Jessic Simpsons, 908 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,400 Speaker 1: Mandy Moore's. That whole moment was like as I was 909 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,359 Speaker 1: growing up, And I think that even also like I 910 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,920 Speaker 1: love the eighties, nineties, seventies, when when I would watch that, 911 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,800 Speaker 1: it gave such a nice taste of like cultures past, 912 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 1: but in a frivolous way that like didn't really underloadt 913 00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 1: low stakes. Yeah, so that was huge also. I mean 914 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 1: v H one, I feel like, for some reason, was 915 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 1: like very influential in my cultural knowledge as a kid. 916 00:45:47,000 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: Were you not allowed to watch MTV, not allowed to 917 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 1: watch MTV? I was not allowed to watch MTV because 918 00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,799 Speaker 1: for some reason, every time it was on. I think 919 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,359 Speaker 1: it was like the sexual stuff for like dating shows 920 00:45:57,400 --> 00:45:58,759 Speaker 1: were always on. My mom was like, you are not 921 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 1: watching this, so she would turn on vach She said 922 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,279 Speaker 1: you can watch one, which I don't know how if 923 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 1: you feel this way, but I think that it was 924 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 1: just as sexual. It was just like more mature and 925 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 1: more like underhanded, right, So it was like instead of 926 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 1: like instead of like close up shots of like Britney 927 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 1: Spears's crotch, it was like Shania Twain wrapped up in 928 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 1: like a wool sheet like and like watching a man 929 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 1: in like a black and white video like sort of 930 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 1: Approacher on the Beach, And I was like, this is 931 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,799 Speaker 1: just as erotic, right. I remember VH one in this 932 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,399 Speaker 1: What's that song? The first song that More and five 933 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:37,440 Speaker 1: came out with, this last this Love the video on 934 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 1: VH one they censored it. IMTV they did not. That 935 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: was I don't know about you, but that Adam leaving 936 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 1: was actually a sexual awakening for me at that time. 937 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 1: That video video goes there, it really goes down. I 938 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 1: mean he's on top of her. He looks at the 939 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 1: camera and says keep her coming every night, and they're 940 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 1: literally having sex and literally he was on top of her. 941 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 1: He was I love like like fucking skinny, like like 942 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 1: the kind of like like he was so like like 943 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: I have in a band thin at that time.

I've seen Google Dolls and they played 987 00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:09,319 Speaker 1: with Counting Crows, and I've seen Maroon five and they 988 00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 1: played with the Counting Crows, and both times, like the 989 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:14,800 Speaker 1: Counting Crows were like obviously the main thing and mostly 990 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:18,840 Speaker 1: straight guys and always at Jones Beach and literally the 991 00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 1: opening act for Maroon five and Counting Crows was someone 992 00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 1: I was so annoyed to see at the time, who 993 00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: I am now a huge fan of.

And now it's like I stand Sarah Brellis, 998 00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 1: like things change and now it's like she would obviously 999 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 1: headline that show. Yeah, there are worse bands thought to 1000 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,279 Speaker 1: like be like tro for sure, but I remember they 1001 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 1: didn't play long December and if almost like what the 1002 00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:59,799 Speaker 1: fun Like Adam Durs was like all right, good night, 1003 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:01,600 Speaker 1: and then it was just like it was like they 1004 00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,440 Speaker 1: didn't play like their number one song and everyone was 1005 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,520 Speaker 1: like really mad to watch these straight men get like 1006 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 1: their dicks soft because they weren't going to hear long 1007 00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 1: December by the Counting Crows.

And did you 1014 00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:31,160 Speaker 1: also love Raven? I was a Raven fan. Well, I 1015 00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:34,440 Speaker 1: watched all those I mean, I mean this is I 1016 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 1: watched The Cosby Show. So another huge part of culture 1017 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 1: for me was Nick at Night because I Love Lucy 1018 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 1: was on and that became my absolute favorite show, my 1019 00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:46,680 Speaker 1: obsession for holidays. When my relatives would get me presents, 1020 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 1: it was always like I Love Lucy themed. I would 1021 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 1: have the dhs of like best episodes. I mean, I 1022 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:54,320 Speaker 1: like stand that show so hard. My phone's name is 1023 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 1: Lucy mcguilla cutty, and that will be when I have 1024 00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:01,320 Speaker 1: to make hotel reservations. So it's like I don't know, 1025 00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:03,959 Speaker 1: Nick and Knight was so like integirl and I watched 1026 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:05,760 Speaker 1: The Cosby Show and there was all in the family. 1027 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:11,840 Speaker 1: But Jefferson's like that. And you know what gen Z 1028 00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:17,439 Speaker 1: has comedy. It's very sad, very sad because that show 1029 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:18,960 Speaker 1: and if you watch it again, the fact that they 1030 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,840 Speaker 1: were able to make so many episodes in a studio 1031 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:25,880 Speaker 1: with four main characters, and every single episode is so different, 1032 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 1: and the hijinks of it all, it's just like some 1033 00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:30,560 Speaker 1: episodes are a little maybe problematic. But she had so 1034 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 1: much agency on that show. She was she was an 1035 00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 1: icon and she owned that production company with Desi and 1036 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:40,200 Speaker 1: they they basically like were pioneers of the television. And 1037 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 1: I mean also I think one of, if not the 1038 00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 1: best physical comedian. Yeah. So that's when I met Raven 1039 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:52,719 Speaker 1: Simone for the first time. Was on Rudy. Rudy was 1040 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:57,239 Speaker 1: played by um um, we know, we know that. I 1041 00:51:57,360 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 1: just I just blocked out what was Raven's I know, 1042 00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:03,640 Speaker 1: I forget her name on the show. It's so cute 1043 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 1: and she was always wearing a little like jumpsuit, you know, 1044 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:11,239 Speaker 1: just made funny like quips to Bill Cosby. I have 1045 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:13,719 Speaker 1: to I have to find out doctor dood a little 1046 00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:15,840 Speaker 1: to remember that. I was, like I was, I was 1047 00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:22,359 Speaker 1: obsessed with Raven. I saw Raven Beverly Center three weeks ago. Yes, 1048 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 1: of course it's actually she's like, it's real culture number ten. 1049 00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 1: She's still working, she's still doing stuff. She's she's out there. 1050 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 1: I think she was. She was on a reality show recently. Huh. Yes, 1051 00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 1: she was on like Big Brother or something. Yeah. Right, 1052 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:37,960 Speaker 1: still still got any work. I'd love to see it. Yeah, 1053 00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 1: but yeah, it's this thing now where it's like, there's 1054 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 1: no it's harder for somehow, it's harder to for for 1055 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:46,160 Speaker 1: gen Z to access to those things because they're not 1056 00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 1: being it's not being curated for that well, there's too much. Yeah, 1057 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,120 Speaker 1: and it's like on Hulu. I mean I'm thinking abouts 1058 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 1: on Hulu because I know where to find it. But 1059 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 1: as someone who was like fourteen right now and like 1060 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 1: a black and white show with like an audience when 1061 00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:00,280 Speaker 1: I watched that, But if you're listening to the sneer 1062 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:02,839 Speaker 1: gen Z, I just urge you to watch it start 1063 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:05,879 Speaker 1: to finish. There's not a dull moment. It's so good, 1064 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:12,320 Speaker 1: so many iconic episodes. Absolutely, I mean I memorized that 1065 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:14,520 Speaker 1: whole monologue, and I wanted my mom to fill me 1066 00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,200 Speaker 1: doing it in our kitchen, and I got so nervous 1067 00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:19,200 Speaker 1: when she wrote the camera out that I could not 1068 00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 1: physically get the words out. But like when I think 1069 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:24,400 Speaker 1: back on my early days, there were a lot of 1070 00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 1: things that pointed to where I'm at now, but I 1071 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:30,520 Speaker 1: just didn't know time. Yeah, for sure didn't realize totally. 1072 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,360 Speaker 1: But you'll never forget the conveyor belt with the chocolates 1073 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:38,320 Speaker 1: something really so many good things. And I learned what 1074 00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:40,359 Speaker 1: a counterfeit was from that show because remember like when 1075 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 1: she accidentally pays with the counterfeit bell and she gets 1076 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 1: like arrest out. It's so great, amazing. There are two beds, 1077 00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:48,520 Speaker 1: two beds that they pushed together for the first time 1078 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:51,399 Speaker 1: in TV history. They shared a bed, never shared a bed, 1079 00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 1: and a woman had never been pregnant on TV. Yes, 1080 00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:55,160 Speaker 1: and that was that was iconic to that when they 1081 00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:57,880 Speaker 1: dealt with the fact that she had the baby, yeah right, 1082 00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 1: but they never discussed sex or anything. Obviously the episode. 1083 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 1: I almost had chills thinking about the episode where she 1084 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 1: tells Ricky she's pregnant. Any sings this song We're having 1085 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 1: a baby at the Tropicana. Oh my god, that and 1086 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 1: it's that episode. I don't think it's on Hulu, but 1087 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:16,759 Speaker 1: it's so goddamn good. And also they were classic chemistry too, 1088 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:20,000 Speaker 1: I mean that was power couple, like one of the 1089 00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,320 Speaker 1: first like entertainment power couples you can think of. You know, 1090 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:24,719 Speaker 1: this is actually so weird, but that we're talking about 1091 00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:26,839 Speaker 1: this because I just took my parents were in town 1092 00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:28,600 Speaker 1: in l A. And they wanted to do the Paramount 1093 00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:31,359 Speaker 1: Studio tour. So we did that and they talked all 1094 00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: about how they Desilu the production company like also produced 1095 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 1: Star Trek. I mean yeah, like they were responsible for 1096 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:47,439 Speaker 1: so much and then when they divorced, um Lucy sold 1097 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 1: the company and those it became something else. But how 1098 00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:54,320 Speaker 1: how much money she got from that and she continued 1099 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 1: to produce and like she was like a icon and 1100 00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:01,520 Speaker 1: to also be that business woman and icon and businesswoman 1101 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 1: at the time like to be taken so seriously probably 1102 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:08,320 Speaker 1: had something to do with No one could do what 1103 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,800 Speaker 1: she did on just I mean you could not argue 1104 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:16,640 Speaker 1: with her sheer talent, not replace that, no her in 1105 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:18,560 Speaker 1: that role or with anything she did, like names she 1106 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,480 Speaker 1: played name you know, well she did and she had 1107 00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 1: so many great movies before the show where she's just gorgeous. 1108 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:27,920 Speaker 1: I mean, just like we worship beautiful. She was a 1109 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 1: silent film actress. That's how she started, and she started 1110 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:34,360 Speaker 1: like doing silent dramatic film acting. And I think, you know, 1111 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:38,440 Speaker 1: it's just so interesting that there really wasn't like a 1112 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 1: comedy female comedy star before her, or if there were, 1113 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:44,480 Speaker 1: like it was like more of a vaudeville moment, right, 1114 00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 1: you know, like back I guess back in the day 1115 00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:49,160 Speaker 1: day day, like the Fanny Brices of it all. But 1116 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 1: I mean, well, speaking of that, one thing, I'm excited 1117 00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:53,640 Speaker 1: to see that for culture. One thing I mean I'm 1118 00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 1: excited for the for this to happen in the culture 1119 00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,680 Speaker 1: is for there to be the first gay male stand 1120 00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:03,160 Speaker 1: up that really is like just just the biggest name 1121 00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:05,600 Speaker 1: in comedy at the time. Like I feel like Amy 1122 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 1: Schumer had it for women for a little bit, and 1123 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 1: I'm just waiting for the first gay mail stand up 1124 00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:11,960 Speaker 1: to just like bust through the ceiling. Yeah, I mean 1125 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 1: I think that everyone there there are some people making 1126 00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 1: making plays for it. I'm sure you know. It's it's 1127 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:21,160 Speaker 1: it's so interesting And I was thinking about, like this 1128 00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:23,840 Speaker 1: is so weird. But I was thinking about how like 1129 00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:26,400 Speaker 1: Buddha Judge is doing very well in Iowa, you know 1130 00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:28,400 Speaker 1: what I mean, and he may even win the Iowa Caucus. 1131 00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:31,000 Speaker 1: And I was thinking to myself, like, I just never 1132 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 1: I still don't really trust it. Like whenever anyone really 1133 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:37,680 Speaker 1: gets behind the game, man, I'm like, are you gonna 1134 00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,520 Speaker 1: like hurt us later? It feels like a trick, you know, 1135 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:43,480 Speaker 1: like my like high school mentality comes back where it's like, 1136 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:46,120 Speaker 1: at what point do you am I going to get 1137 00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:49,520 Speaker 1: made fun of? Like it's almost like so whenever there's 1138 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 1: like and I'm happy that it's happening, like it feels 1139 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 1: like there's like it's definitely more people game gay people 1140 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 1: occupying the mainstream. But I'm always just like I guess 1141 00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 1: that where of that last generation where it's like I'm 1142 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:01,279 Speaker 1: side eying it a little bit of course, you know 1143 00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:02,800 Speaker 1: what I mean. And I feel like gen Z doesn't 1144 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:05,960 Speaker 1: necessarily they don't have those hang ups have that because 1145 00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:07,960 Speaker 1: I think they're growing up in like an easier world 1146 00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:10,960 Speaker 1: for the most part in terms of acceptance of that. 1147 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 1: But it's just it's interesting that you say that because 1148 00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:18,120 Speaker 1: I've thought, you know who will be that first huge 1149 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:22,240 Speaker 1: marquee male gay comedy star. There's definitely lots of names 1150 00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 1: that come to mind. There are some candidates, Darling. I mean, 1151 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 1: I think it's great that Billy is going to be 1152 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 1: in that it's gonna be romantic comedy. It's introduced by 1153 00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:34,320 Speaker 1: John Appeta. I think that's great. You know, he's not 1154 00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:37,920 Speaker 1: as much of a stand up stand you're talking specifically 1155 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 1: stand up if I'll name names like Jabookie is like 1156 00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:45,480 Speaker 1: the bridge between gen Z and millennials, and like he 1157 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:48,480 Speaker 1: is able to like just turn out like fucking hits 1158 00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 1: every single day. He's a He's a damn star. I 1159 00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 1: feel like he is like pushing a lot of stuff forward, 1160 00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:59,040 Speaker 1: I guess, And I don't want to be like I 1161 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:03,200 Speaker 1: totally bedicting or anything. He's like phenomenal. I guess, Like 1162 00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm trying not to be reductive when I 1163 00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 1: say this, But sometimes it's like when you see stand 1164 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,240 Speaker 1: ups talk and I think, what what I really relate 1165 00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:11,520 Speaker 1: to in a stand up is when they talk so 1166 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 1: openly and emotionally raw about their life, you know what 1167 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 1: I mean, and that that includes their sex life, that 1168 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:20,800 Speaker 1: obviously includes their love life, dating life, social engagement with 1169 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:25,040 Speaker 1: the relationships with our friends. Um, I wonder if like 1170 00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:28,440 Speaker 1: if people really saw a game, you know, like pop 1171 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,760 Speaker 1: off about gay sex and you see I mean, like 1172 00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:35,480 Speaker 1: for example, Jolie, like he is very honest about like 1173 00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:38,280 Speaker 1: his I mean, unabashedly and his Twitter is what it 1174 00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:40,360 Speaker 1: is and you know what I mean, Like and even 1175 00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:42,600 Speaker 1: though he's like you know on TV now and like 1176 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:45,080 Speaker 1: he's doing his thing like his he does not compromise 1177 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 1: his comedy at all, at his point of view at all. 1178 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:53,280 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I really am curious about like when 1179 00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:56,560 Speaker 1: everyone does that, like which which is happening more and more, 1180 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:58,960 Speaker 1: like how the mainstream is going to respond to that 1181 00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:01,360 Speaker 1: and whether or not they'll push us up or be 1182 00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:04,200 Speaker 1: like cool, yeah, and we feel like you're occupying enough space. 1183 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:06,520 Speaker 1: And now we'll we'll we'll we'll watch our Bill Burr 1184 00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:08,000 Speaker 1: vide out now because you know what's going to happen, 1185 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:11,240 Speaker 1: is I hope, right, I hope.

Is I watched I 1187 00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:16,600 Speaker 1: think can watched Richard Pryor again for the first time 1188 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:21,560 Speaker 1: in a while, and like just like otherworldly, like you're 1189 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:26,480 Speaker 1: like what like everyone is just like like just eating 1190 00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:28,960 Speaker 1: out of the palm of his fucking hand, and it's 1191 00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:30,960 Speaker 1: like best best of all time. Like there's gonna be 1192 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 1: like something like that. I think. I think that's probably 1193 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 1: we're talking about. Mary is like some someone is gonna 1194 00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:37,640 Speaker 1: come or maybe they're already here where it's just like 1195 00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:39,960 Speaker 1: they're gonna like light themselves on fire. They're gonna do 1196 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 1: something that's gonna get people, that's gonna make people go crazy, 1197 00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 1: and they're gonna be in a good way. They're like, Wow, 1198 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:48,240 Speaker 1: this is something we've never seen before, and this is 1199 00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 1: huge and this is Yeah. Also, I think like the 1200 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 1: way I think about it is like gay men and 1201 00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:56,360 Speaker 1: young women I think have the spending power right now, 1202 00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:58,400 Speaker 1: Like they're the people that are going out to see 1203 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,280 Speaker 1: these things. Are the people that are like buying merch 1204 01:00:00,440 --> 01:00:02,600 Speaker 1: not even to think about it in such like productive terms, 1205 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:04,600 Speaker 1: but it's like at a very basic level, I think 1206 01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:06,520 Speaker 1: if if there is one person that kind of rises, 1207 01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:10,840 Speaker 1: it will the people that matter, whose opinions matter, will 1208 01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:14,960 Speaker 1: will like propel that person forward. I think the only 1209 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 1: thing I see in in that would be tough And 1210 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:20,120 Speaker 1: I don't want to make like a comment on gay 1211 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:23,280 Speaker 1: culture is like just not having them taken down from within, 1212 01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? What I see is people 1213 01:00:27,720 --> 01:00:30,840 Speaker 1: canceling each other, and it's like, well, let's just let's 1214 01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 1: just get this going. Let's not be our own like 1215 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:37,880 Speaker 1: biggest block. Let's not It's it's like with everything. I mean, 1216 01:00:38,480 --> 01:00:41,640 Speaker 1: dot's not eat it before it happens. And I think 1217 01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:45,439 Speaker 1: you are right to say that because for a long time, 1218 01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:47,960 Speaker 1: and I think this obviously with women as well. You 1219 01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:50,960 Speaker 1: know what you see, you see it especially in every 1220 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 1: in every field. You see it especially I mean never 1221 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 1: more than with black female rappers. What we do to them, 1222 01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:58,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, and what and what you 1223 01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:01,440 Speaker 1: know they do to each other because we're all exists 1224 01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 1: in a space where they're historically has not been room 1225 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 1: for more than one and so when it looks like 1226 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:08,920 Speaker 1: that space is going to be taken, what happens to 1227 01:01:09,080 --> 01:01:13,240 Speaker 1: you inside is you get you go into attack mode. Um, 1228 01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:17,080 Speaker 1: it's the smith of their not being enough. Yeah, whatever, 1229 01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:19,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna quote Tina Tina. Tina writes about this embossians 1230 01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:23,160 Speaker 1: she does when she talks about women, like talking in 1231 01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:24,800 Speaker 1: terms of competing with other women, It's like, no, you're 1232 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:27,640 Speaker 1: not in competition with women, You're in competition with everybody, 1233 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:29,760 Speaker 1: which I know sounds like a very like lazy way 1234 01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:31,920 Speaker 1: of like a simplified way of thinking about it, but 1235 01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 1: it really is what that is because you're in competition 1236 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,200 Speaker 1: with people who are parenting, who are feeding us the 1237 01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 1: line of well there's not enough room, like who think 1238 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:42,280 Speaker 1: about who is saying that? Well, I would agree, But 1239 01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:44,880 Speaker 1: I also I think like we cannot ignore the reality 1240 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:47,000 Speaker 1: that like the people that are making decisions, they do 1241 01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:49,040 Speaker 1: have a mentality of what we have one you know 1242 01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:50,880 Speaker 1: what I mean? Are they have They have had that 1243 01:01:50,960 --> 01:01:53,200 Speaker 1: mentality And so it's something that I'm so happy that 1244 01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 1: like we're talking about, because once that gets vocalized, you know, 1245 01:01:57,520 --> 01:01:59,880 Speaker 1: it's not acceptable. And so now that it's like out 1246 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:02,000 Speaker 1: there in public knowledge that it's not acceptable, and we 1247 01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 1: know there's so much talent there are now is fully 1248 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 1: no excuse. So so we shouldn't feed into that mentality 1249 01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:11,240 Speaker 1: as well. And that's where I think, like we should 1250 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,520 Speaker 1: get behind what she's saying. Bitch, here's what I'm gonna say, 1251 01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:17,320 Speaker 1: and I don't feel uncomfortable saying this. Joel and I 1252 01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:19,840 Speaker 1: were on fucking Molly on Fire Island and We're both 1253 01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:22,000 Speaker 1: looking at each other's eyes and said, I'm so fucking 1254 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 1: happy that we're both this is happening for both of 1255 01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:27,240 Speaker 1: us together, that we like because this just disproves that 1256 01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:29,280 Speaker 1: whole myth entirely. But there's only even for one like 1257 01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 1: a gay sest Asian male comedian to succeed. That is 1258 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:36,240 Speaker 1: so that is patently false. I mean, it's it's it's 1259 01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:41,440 Speaker 1: definitely speaks volumes that I mean even on NBC there's 1260 01:02:42,880 --> 01:02:46,600 Speaker 1: Manico and there's Joel Well Rest in Peace Sunny Side 1261 01:02:46,640 --> 01:02:49,320 Speaker 1: on NBC, but now it's on Hulu. But the fact 1262 01:02:49,360 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: that it still stands, you know what I mean that 1263 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:57,560 Speaker 1: three queer Asian people on the same network network and 1264 01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:01,360 Speaker 1: you know what, that's it's it wouldn't have been guess 1265 01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:05,040 Speaker 1: what NBC is still standing, you know what I meant, 1266 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:09,080 Speaker 1: torn down remains and that is just further proof that 1267 01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 1: it is possible in this climate. I think, I mean, 1268 01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:13,680 Speaker 1: it's an exciting time to come up because I think 1269 01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:16,560 Speaker 1: people are getting more aware of the like um self 1270 01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:19,000 Speaker 1: sabotage that we have that we do like in our 1271 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:22,160 Speaker 1: little pockets and communities. But it's also you know, then 1272 01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:24,600 Speaker 1: there's more opportunity than ever, there's more streaming platforms, blah 1273 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:26,720 Speaker 1: blah blah. But I'm just excited to see the real 1274 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:29,080 Speaker 1: shift happened because there's a lot of talking about it, 1275 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 1: and I think it's just like okay, I'm ready. Yeah. 1276 01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 1: You know what makes me so happy is that when 1277 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:37,640 Speaker 1: Dave and I are booking like game show, it often 1278 01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:42,080 Speaker 1: it's harder to think of contestants that are the straight 1279 01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 1: men to come on the show than it is to 1280 01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:47,320 Speaker 1: book the Woman who Gets It or the Wise Queer, like, 1281 01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 1: which are the lifelines because two straight men compete with 1282 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:52,520 Speaker 1: each other to be honorarily gay as fun, they each 1283 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:54,760 Speaker 1: have a lifeline. You both have been incredible on the show, 1284 01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:56,960 Speaker 1: the Woman who Gets It and the Wise Queer. And 1285 01:03:57,040 --> 01:03:59,439 Speaker 1: it's like there's so many I think it's probably because 1286 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:00,760 Speaker 1: that we're in the was that we're in. We know 1287 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:04,520 Speaker 1: so many people that are just happened to be you know, diverse, 1288 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:07,080 Speaker 1: like in terms of like they're not just like white 1289 01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:12,240 Speaker 1: straight dudes, but it's it was so fun. You don't 1290 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:14,400 Speaker 1: go straight dudes though, no, no, no no, But I 1291 01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:17,160 Speaker 1: mean like it's like they occupied such a space for 1292 01:04:17,280 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 1: such a long time that it's like it's sometimes makes 1293 01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:25,720 Speaker 1: thrills me. It's exciting people. It's like you see if 1294 01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,120 Speaker 1: people that you want on the shop in those roles 1295 01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:30,480 Speaker 1: as opposed to like the people that you're you know, 1296 01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:32,640 Speaker 1: kind of poking fun at. Yeah, it's important to say 1297 01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:35,640 Speaker 1: that it's not endangering their livelihoods at all. It's it's 1298 01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 1: not endangering their shots. It's like, it's just it's just 1299 01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 1: it's just better balanced, that's all it is. It is 1300 01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:46,600 Speaker 1: not displacing someone else's opportunity. Because because this is the 1301 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:49,440 Speaker 1: other thing that's being sort of touted around in in 1302 01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:52,919 Speaker 1: terms of diversity conversations and entertainment now, is that they're like, well, 1303 01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:56,520 Speaker 1: I didn't get that staffing job because um they had 1304 01:04:56,560 --> 01:04:58,800 Speaker 1: a diversity higher or something like that. Look at the 1305 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:03,040 Speaker 1: members now. It hasn't actually changed that much, hasn't changed 1306 01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:06,240 Speaker 1: that much. So you saying I didn't get that job 1307 01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:09,360 Speaker 1: because I wasn't diverse is parenting a line that someone 1308 01:05:09,440 --> 01:05:13,720 Speaker 1: else is someone else fed you because it's better. It's 1309 01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 1: less embarrassing than to say I didn't get it because 1310 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,640 Speaker 1: I wasn't good enough. And honestly and maybe you and 1311 01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:21,360 Speaker 1: I'm sure you are good enough. But it's also like, 1312 01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:24,800 Speaker 1: then keep realizing your talent and what you have to 1313 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:27,720 Speaker 1: offer for the next thing. That it's also just so 1314 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:30,520 Speaker 1: stupid to say I didn't get a job for that reason, 1315 01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:33,080 Speaker 1: Like like we're all in this industry. We all don't 1316 01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:38,320 Speaker 1: get jobs all the every day, literally every day, and 1317 01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:40,760 Speaker 1: so it's just like boring, you know, That's what it is. 1318 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:43,360 Speaker 1: It's a boring thing to say. It's it's just it's 1319 01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:49,040 Speaker 1: like it's not true, it's boring. It's just it's it's stupid. Yeah, 1320 01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:51,320 Speaker 1: And also it's like there's a lot of course correction 1321 01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:53,280 Speaker 1: to be done. So even if it is true, still 1322 01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:57,040 Speaker 1: fuck you, Like like you just you weren't. You weren't 1323 01:05:57,080 --> 01:06:00,000 Speaker 1: the best candidate. That's regardless of what they're like require 1324 01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,120 Speaker 1: erman s where you were not the best candidate and 1325 01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:05,280 Speaker 1: that's it. And also ship gets around and also if 1326 01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:07,520 Speaker 1: good luck to you if you're the one saying, well, 1327 01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:10,000 Speaker 1: I didn't get it because of this reason, because guess 1328 01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:13,120 Speaker 1: what if you say that to me, I don't. I'm 1329 01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:18,160 Speaker 1: telling other people. I'm like, oh God, like hearing that 1330 01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:21,360 Speaker 1: people say that is just so it is so embarrassing, 1331 01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 1: Yeah for them clowning on yourself. Um, I want to 1332 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:29,920 Speaker 1: talk about what you've learned about boys? Yeah, what if 1333 01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:32,560 Speaker 1: your findings because I keep thinking about this one. Whatever, 1334 01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:36,280 Speaker 1: What are like generalizations you can make about behaviors? I 1335 01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:39,120 Speaker 1: would say, Well, so when you're trying to identify a 1336 01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:41,760 Speaker 1: fun boy, there's definitely red flags. But what the biggest 1337 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:44,240 Speaker 1: lesson I've learned is that a boy can look like anything. Yes, 1338 01:06:44,520 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 1: you really don't know, because there are definitely there's the 1339 01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:50,240 Speaker 1: you know, the way it's packaged by popular culture, which 1340 01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:52,600 Speaker 1: is wearing joggers, they have a big watch, they vape, 1341 01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:55,479 Speaker 1: they d m you, they have red receipts on whatever. 1342 01:06:55,600 --> 01:06:58,960 Speaker 1: But there's like, you know, I went home with a 1343 01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:01,400 Speaker 1: four year old woman in the cubby hole, and you know, 1344 01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:03,920 Speaker 1: she was a fun boy. And the lesson there was 1345 01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:06,000 Speaker 1: if they're wearing a fedora, doesn't matter if they're male 1346 01:07:06,080 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 1: or female. You've got to just stay away. So that's 1347 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,520 Speaker 1: one thing. Uh, And then I think what I've learned 1348 01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:15,320 Speaker 1: from talking to them and having very deep conversations is 1349 01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:19,680 Speaker 1: that everyone is um damaged in their own way, and 1350 01:07:19,960 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 1: it's it's just who how you choose to like take 1351 01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:26,240 Speaker 1: it out on other people. I would say, is like, 1352 01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 1: you know a lot of these guys they want to 1353 01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:31,200 Speaker 1: find love and they want to be happy. But I 1354 01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:33,160 Speaker 1: think so Another way I've been thinking about it is 1355 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:35,600 Speaker 1: like dating is a two party system, and much like 1356 01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 1: our other two party system, it's broken, and no one 1357 01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:41,120 Speaker 1: on either side of the aisle is having fun, and 1358 01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:45,000 Speaker 1: we really need to like bridge the gap because it's 1359 01:07:45,040 --> 01:07:46,880 Speaker 1: not like the funk boys aren't having fun and the 1360 01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:48,720 Speaker 1: people who are getting hurt by them are not having fun, 1361 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:51,120 Speaker 1: and dating should be fun. Don't remember when having a 1362 01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:53,800 Speaker 1: crush on someone was fun? Like I the the amount 1363 01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:56,680 Speaker 1: of stress and tension I feel in my bones. I 1364 01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:58,040 Speaker 1: did a show a couple of weeks ago and I 1365 01:07:58,080 --> 01:08:00,360 Speaker 1: had planned with a guy after and I was intense 1366 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:02,840 Speaker 1: that he was going to cancel. I forgot my my 1367 01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:05,480 Speaker 1: I forgot the second joke. After my opener, I was 1368 01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:07,600 Speaker 1: like so in my head about it, and it was 1369 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:10,120 Speaker 1: just like, why is it shouldn't be this way? It 1370 01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:13,040 Speaker 1: should not be this way, and it's upsetting to me, 1371 01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:16,000 Speaker 1: And I did. I sent out this survey um to 1372 01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:18,000 Speaker 1: you know, I put on Instagram and Twitter and a 1373 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:20,160 Speaker 1: bunch of people took it and it was like, you know, 1374 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:23,479 Speaker 1: I forget if it was like pent of people do 1375 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 1: not think that the current climate is conducive to finding 1376 01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:27,720 Speaker 1: a good partner in the next one to three years. 1377 01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:31,280 Speaker 1: But fifty three percent of people are optimistic that they 1378 01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:32,680 Speaker 1: will meet the right person in the next one or 1379 01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:35,800 Speaker 1: three years. So the optimism is there, but it's like, 1380 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:40,040 Speaker 1: if you keep just beating people down, it's it's we're 1381 01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:43,000 Speaker 1: gonna lose that, and that makes me sad. So I think, 1382 01:08:43,120 --> 01:08:45,519 Speaker 1: you know, funk boy culture, it's very amorphous. It's not 1383 01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:49,160 Speaker 1: it's not one thing. And I think, you know, I'm 1384 01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:51,160 Speaker 1: just curious to see. I think things will get worse 1385 01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:54,200 Speaker 1: before they get better, but I want to help things 1386 01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:56,479 Speaker 1: get better. You put out the server yourself. Yeah, that 1387 01:08:56,600 --> 01:08:59,040 Speaker 1: is a genius like way of like just splitting that 1388 01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:03,240 Speaker 1: that that circumstance explain the premise of Dragons as to 1389 01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:05,519 Speaker 1: everyone who might not not sure. So Dragons as it's 1390 01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:07,920 Speaker 1: called Dragons as a fun boy treatment program. And I 1391 01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:10,680 Speaker 1: started the show because I was like really sick of 1392 01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:13,400 Speaker 1: my dating habits, hooking up with funk boys, getting ghosted, 1393 01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:16,000 Speaker 1: getting strewed over. So I started keeping track of the 1394 01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:17,960 Speaker 1: number of days I've been funck boy free on like 1395 01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:20,680 Speaker 1: a whiteboard board in my apartment. I would posted on 1396 01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:23,320 Speaker 1: social media, everyone's like, you know, very encouraging, supportive. So 1397 01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:25,479 Speaker 1: I decided to do a show where I invite other 1398 01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:28,200 Speaker 1: comedians to come on and talk about their um experiences 1399 01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:30,240 Speaker 1: with funk Boys, and I talked about my six step 1400 01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:33,759 Speaker 1: treatment program as a fun Boy addict um and relapse 1401 01:09:33,800 --> 01:09:36,080 Speaker 1: the step number three because it's going to happen. Wow. 1402 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,320 Speaker 1: I built that in. So after the first show was 1403 01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:41,240 Speaker 1: really fun at Union Hall, I moved to Chelsea Music 1404 01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:43,360 Speaker 1: Hall and I did the first fun Boy Redemption with 1405 01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:47,320 Speaker 1: Karl Radkey of Summer House and I basically it's like 1406 01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:49,879 Speaker 1: I met with him before. We did like a pre interview, 1407 01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:53,479 Speaker 1: and then I structured like uh an interview with a 1408 01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:56,400 Speaker 1: live interview where we talked about his wrongdoings, why he 1409 01:09:56,520 --> 01:09:58,559 Speaker 1: is that way, and then kind of have him pledged 1410 01:09:58,640 --> 01:10:02,200 Speaker 1: to be better, to take the path of righteousness or whatever. 1411 01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:05,400 Speaker 1: We have Benito Skinner come out dresses Jesus to baptize 1412 01:10:05,479 --> 01:10:07,720 Speaker 1: him with girls tears. So I've been doing that now 1413 01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:10,400 Speaker 1: at every show as the last segment. It's been a 1414 01:10:10,479 --> 01:10:12,519 Speaker 1: lot of fun, but it's also been very eye opening 1415 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:15,840 Speaker 1: to hear men who are truly self aware and they 1416 01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:18,519 Speaker 1: understand what they're doing is wrong. But like I did 1417 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:21,280 Speaker 1: this guy. I did a redemption with this guy, and 1418 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:23,759 Speaker 1: he was just a normy he like works in marketing 1419 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:26,000 Speaker 1: or something. But he told me that he isn't he 1420 01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:28,280 Speaker 1: is in love with someone, but when he became anogamous 1421 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 1: with her, he his identity is so rooted and having 1422 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:34,519 Speaker 1: sex with people and pursuing women, he lost his sense 1423 01:10:34,600 --> 01:10:37,439 Speaker 1: of self and had an existential crisis. Oh my god. 1424 01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:40,000 Speaker 1: And it's like for him to even be able to 1425 01:10:40,280 --> 01:10:43,000 Speaker 1: have the awareness like verbalize that to me and then 1426 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:46,200 Speaker 1: know that he can't overcome that was like I mean, 1427 01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:50,720 Speaker 1: it was just like heartbreaking, but also like it gave 1428 01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:52,439 Speaker 1: me hope in some ways that at least he But 1429 01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:54,400 Speaker 1: the thing that scares me is these guys who have 1430 01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:56,839 Speaker 1: now been doing this for a decade in their mid thirties. 1431 01:10:57,200 --> 01:11:00,120 Speaker 1: Where do you go from here? It's it's really, are 1432 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,559 Speaker 1: you too far deep into that? I don't know? I mean. 1433 01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:05,439 Speaker 1: He actually messaged me a couple of months later and said, 1434 01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:07,040 Speaker 1: I just wanted you to know I ended things with 1435 01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:09,080 Speaker 1: two women before sleeping with them because I knew there 1436 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:11,680 Speaker 1: was no future, which like that to me, If I 1437 01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:14,960 Speaker 1: can help two women with my show, I feel my 1438 01:11:15,160 --> 01:11:18,439 Speaker 1: job is done here. Uh, and it's it's really interesting 1439 01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:20,439 Speaker 1: to watch the audience of the show changed from like 1440 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:24,920 Speaker 1: women to like women and gay men and then now 1441 01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:27,160 Speaker 1: they're straight guys kind of feeling like they have a 1442 01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:29,160 Speaker 1: point of entry, which is good. And a lot of 1443 01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:31,679 Speaker 1: straight guys I think, are very scared about the idea 1444 01:11:31,720 --> 01:11:34,920 Speaker 1: of it. Like my roommate's friend invited his other straight 1445 01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:37,800 Speaker 1: friends and the text responses were like, I don't want 1446 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:39,479 Speaker 1: to go, Like, I'm sure there's a lot of bad dudes, 1447 01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:40,800 Speaker 1: but I don't want to be lumped in just because 1448 01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:42,880 Speaker 1: I'm a straight white guy. And another guy was like, 1449 01:11:42,920 --> 01:11:45,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to get me too, Like they just 1450 01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:47,800 Speaker 1: some people are not ready to face it yet. But 1451 01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 1: the ones that are, we invite you in, and I 1452 01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:53,439 Speaker 1: think we'll all be better as results. That is kind 1453 01:11:53,479 --> 01:11:58,760 Speaker 1: of my whole thing, all of us, honestly. And so 1454 01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:02,000 Speaker 1: the women also have a space they're like to like, 1455 01:12:02,760 --> 01:12:06,479 Speaker 1: do they is there a confrontation?

No, 1706 01:25:25,320 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I think you know what happened is um. 1707 01:25:27,200 --> 01:25:28,800 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are critical of Rue 1708 01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:32,320 Speaker 1: now and for valid reasons. If if you're critical of Rue, 1709 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:34,240 Speaker 1: this is not a read on you. I'm just saying 1710 01:25:34,760 --> 01:25:38,960 Speaker 1: you also have to understand and respect this is the 1711 01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:42,280 Speaker 1: most important people in the culture who has seen it all, 1712 01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:45,960 Speaker 1: has seen everything.

You know 1714 01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:51,200 Speaker 1: what he hasn't thought of before? Like it's it's like 1715 01:25:51,280 --> 01:25:55,320 Speaker 1: that thing of like when people come for celebrities like 1716 01:25:55,360 --> 01:25:58,040 Speaker 1: they're stupid. It's like, these people aren't stupid. RuPaul is 1717 01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 1: actually a genius and an innovator and truly a pioneer 1718 01:26:03,240 --> 01:26:06,840 Speaker 1: of television. And there's so many things that we have 1719 01:26:06,960 --> 01:26:11,200 Speaker 1: now are are do and indebted to Rue saying true 1720 01:26:11,240 --> 01:26:13,479 Speaker 1: and also think about just think about the fact that 1721 01:26:13,600 --> 01:26:16,639 Speaker 1: he thought of lip sync for your Life. I mean 1722 01:26:17,320 --> 01:26:20,800 Speaker 1: for a final challenge in a drag queen competition. Lip 1723 01:26:20,880 --> 01:26:25,639 Speaker 1: Sync for your Life is fucking genius and dispense. Also, 1724 01:26:25,760 --> 01:26:28,920 Speaker 1: the writing on that show when they're doing the runway 1725 01:26:29,160 --> 01:26:31,560 Speaker 1: is some of the funniest writing on TV because you 1726 01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:34,240 Speaker 1: don't really have laugh out loud writing on TV. I'll 1727 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:36,720 Speaker 1: just on any show, you know what I mean that 1728 01:26:37,080 --> 01:26:38,800 Speaker 1: the quips that they come out with, and I don't 1729 01:26:38,840 --> 01:26:41,920 Speaker 1: care if they tape it after do pick up My 1730 01:26:42,080 --> 01:26:44,320 Speaker 1: God is some of the funniest ship you'll hear on TV. 1731 01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:47,679 Speaker 1: And you watch a bar God, bless you, your earbeds 1732 01:26:47,720 --> 01:26:50,519 Speaker 1: are going to fucking row. There's nothing like it. There's nothing. 1733 01:26:50,640 --> 01:26:54,679 Speaker 1: And I would say for everyone out there, that's that's everyone. 1734 01:26:55,439 --> 01:26:58,519 Speaker 1: Um try to avoid the spoilers because the spoilers are 1735 01:26:58,560 --> 01:27:02,040 Speaker 1: so rampant on YouTube, been on Reddit obviously. Just avoid 1736 01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:04,920 Speaker 1: the spoilers because we just spoiled All Stars five. Well, no, 1737 01:27:05,040 --> 01:27:08,960 Speaker 1: we're not spoiling. And I said rumors several times, so 1738 01:27:09,120 --> 01:27:12,880 Speaker 1: people want to come from you substantiated unsubstantiated rumors. But 1739 01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:18,240 Speaker 1: I would say try to avoid um the elimination, spoilers 1740 01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:21,200 Speaker 1: like all that stuff, like because I mean, the moment 1741 01:27:21,400 --> 01:27:24,839 Speaker 1: of watching Sasha Va Lord do that wait when Bendela 1742 01:27:24,880 --> 01:27:29,120 Speaker 1: Creme sent herself home, that that I think about daily 1743 01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:31,519 Speaker 1: every I'm going home every day. I think about it 1744 01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:35,000 Speaker 1: every day. That's like I mean, And here's the thing, 1745 01:27:35,400 --> 01:27:37,760 Speaker 1: Benda la Creme. When when when you heard that she 1746 01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:39,800 Speaker 1: was going to be on All Stars, I was kind 1747 01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:41,640 Speaker 1: of like, yeah, that that makes sense. And then when 1748 01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:44,720 Speaker 1: she came back and was so you know what I 1749 01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:46,920 Speaker 1: thought about Bendela Creme. I thought, well, Benda la Creme 1750 01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:49,599 Speaker 1: was already polished and amazing. That wasn't ever a problem. 1751 01:27:49,680 --> 01:27:52,160 Speaker 1: So how will it elevate? Elevate? And it was elevated, 1752 01:27:52,280 --> 01:27:55,800 Speaker 1: elevated and it's smart. She was the best, Like her 1753 01:27:56,280 --> 01:27:59,400 Speaker 1: stats are the strongest, stronger than lask Its stronger than 1754 01:27:59,439 --> 01:28:01,280 Speaker 1: any other queen on that show. And then for her 1755 01:28:01,360 --> 01:28:03,880 Speaker 1: to say I'm taking myself out. What she did in 1756 01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:06,040 Speaker 1: that moment was she did win the show because she 1757 01:28:06,160 --> 01:28:12,160 Speaker 1: made herself iconic. She was just ONREW, she was just 1758 01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:15,280 Speaker 1: on Hay Queen and she talks with with Johnny and 1759 01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:18,760 Speaker 1: she she talks about that moment. Truly, she's like she's 1760 01:28:18,800 --> 01:28:24,679 Speaker 1: so articulate and like and thoughtful about like the process 1761 01:28:24,720 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 1: of coming to that decision. And I think I believe 1762 01:28:27,160 --> 01:28:28,920 Speaker 1: at this point that it was not produced, that she 1763 01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:31,200 Speaker 1: really did. I absolutely do not think it, and I 1764 01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:33,120 Speaker 1: choose to believe that. And I think it's okay to 1765 01:28:33,200 --> 01:28:36,040 Speaker 1: choose to believe thinks like that. Sometimes it's okay. That's 1766 01:28:36,080 --> 01:28:38,920 Speaker 1: my choice is to believe that. I do not believe 1767 01:28:38,960 --> 01:28:40,840 Speaker 1: that it was produced. I think I think she she 1768 01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:42,960 Speaker 1: did that on her own, because you can kind of 1769 01:28:43,040 --> 01:28:45,320 Speaker 1: see in the reactions of everyone, like you can kind 1770 01:28:45,320 --> 01:28:48,040 Speaker 1: of tell when when the judges are actually caught off 1771 01:28:48,080 --> 01:28:51,240 Speaker 1: guard by something. And I really do believe that ruin 1772 01:28:51,320 --> 01:28:54,280 Speaker 1: that moment was kind of processing how to produce herself, 1773 01:28:54,800 --> 01:28:56,320 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, and that's why she 1774 01:28:56,400 --> 01:28:59,479 Speaker 1: didn't give a strong reaction in that moment, because she 1775 01:28:59,560 --> 01:29:02,200 Speaker 1: was like, I don't know how to take this, and 1776 01:29:03,560 --> 01:29:06,680 Speaker 1: I love it, and that's good TV.
