Everyone will be gobble gobble gobbling 22 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: up as though they're having Thanksgiving dinner while also driving 23 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: a car into the Fearless Girl statue on Wall Street. 24 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: It will be seen as a hate crime against all 25 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: young girls, and we will be tried for war crimes 26 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: in the Hague. Oh because you little idiots couldn't just 27 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: listen to an episode without crashing your car. So you 28 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 1: may be wondering why are we doing that time thing. Um, well, 29 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: we're doing that time thing because actually the tables have 30 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: turned and my Internet was very, very bad. Real fans 31 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: will remember, of course, the premiere, the season premiere of 32 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: this season, which we of course celebrated with a red 33 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: carpeted event that only micro influencers were invited to and 34 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: we're not allowed to post about um. During that episode, 35 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: I in fact was having Internet issues and we had 36 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: to re record our intro with her dear friends Matt 37 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: and Bowen, and I said, I'm not going to be humiliated. 38 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, I'm going to sabotage the WiFi. And 39 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: Sam's on Sam's block, so that his wife I will 40 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: not work for a future episode. And honestly, that was 41 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: such a learning experience because when your wife I wasn't working. 42 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: I'll admit it, I said, this is George's fault. I said, 43 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: George's doing something wrong. I knew you were thinking that. 44 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: And when I also admitted can also admit something, I 45 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 1: thought the same thing when had happened to you. Even 46 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 1: though I had had the experience, I knew what it 47 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: was like to be in that situation. In that moment, 48 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: I felt how unprofessional to not have checked your WiFi. 49 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: I swear I've never had an issue with it. And 50 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: then that time, of course, decided not to work, which 51 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: is a huge lay. But now it's actually better because 52 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: we get to record the intro um well after the fact. 53 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,679 Speaker 1: This is actually what I like to call Mark Marin ing, 54 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: where you you do the interview and then later in 55 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: the intro talk about how good the interview is. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, 56 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,679 Speaker 1: you guys. You know, I almost did a Mark Marin impression. 57 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: But I actually, as I was starting it, I thought, 58 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: I don't know how to do this, do you know? 59 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: I um, when I first started to stand up, I 60 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: used to do like an impression that was like Mark 61 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,399 Speaker 1: Marin Dr Seuss, Well, you gotta do it. I'm sorry, 62 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: I don't know. It wasn't good. It was just sort 63 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: of like raspy like it was very early on, but god, 64 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: what was hello? What? No? I can't do it?

Saying oh God, but George, you actually 71 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: have a huge development that I want to talk about, 72 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: a breaking news development. So everyone please pull over so 73 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: you don't crash into the other Wall Street statue with 74 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 1: the bowl. You've already done enough damage, so please relax. 75 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: You've damaged Fearless Girl and actually turned the volume down. 76 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: Um so as you may remember this at this point 77 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: for you listener, will be two episodes ago. During the 78 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: John early episode, I mentioned that there are pigeons that 79 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: are straight up having Studio fifty four esque raves on 80 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: top of my A C units. They are covering the 81 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: A C units and ship and they are making noise 82 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: that is alarming on a daily basis, and it gets 83 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: even worse at night, which is you said, it not 84 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:50,559 Speaker 1: me when I sleep. And so I I talked about 85 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: that on the podcast, thinking this is going to go 86 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: to deaf ears. You got you and John couldn't even 87 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: couldn't even hear the pigeon noises. I said, you know, 88 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: this is a sort of I'm going through a beautiful 89 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: mind the type experience where I'm seeing, um, that one 90 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: guy that was in the DaVinci Guard. You're losing me, 91 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: but keep going, you know, talking about But the issue 92 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 1: is that. So my friend Carrie, who happens to be 93 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: a neighbor of mine, she lives two doors down, listened 94 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: to the shout out, listen to the episode, and then 95 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: texted Matthew and said, I'll ever believe this. I know 96 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: the culprit of your pigeon problem. Her landlord is such 97 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: a pigeon lover that he spreads food for the pigeons 98 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: multiple times a week, and now the entire block has 99 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: a rampant pigeon problem, so much so that he replaced 100 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: He offered to replace four free multiple AC units in 101 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: her building because they had been so absolutely covered and 102 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: encased in pigeon ship this is insane. Rather than offering 103 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,679 Speaker 1: to stop feeding the pigeons, he actually was like, listen, 104 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: I'll take money out of my own pocket to replace 105 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: everyone's AC units just so they can be covered and 106 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 1: ship all again. This is joker vibes. It's joker vibes, 107 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: and it's also toxic peda behavior. I'm talking about people 108 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 1: for the ethical treatment of animals. Oh, I know who 109 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 1: you're talking about. Taking it. It's this is this is 110 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: a slippery slope of like you can be too good 111 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 1: of a person. Well, yeah, like the pigeons shouldn't be thriving, 112 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: they should be sure they can live, but they shouldn't 113 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: be having full on orgies on your A C unit. 114 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: And I'm not I want to know, I'm not actually exaggerating. 115 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 1: It does appear that they are having intercourse. One time 116 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: we thought, I start to god. One time we thought 117 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 1: one of them had passed away, which was very sad. 118 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: Turns out literally it was napping. We knocked on the 119 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: window and it was like, oh, sorry, it's just thinking 120 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: that happened and started flying napping And so it is. 121 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: But but as you said, you know you don't want to. 122 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: I'm I would never murder a pigeon. I would never 123 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: harm a pigeon. But that doesn't mean I'm gonna give 124 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: it food. No. I mean I wouldn't harm a pigeon, 125 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: but if somebody else did, I wouldn't stop them. No 126 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: sam stopping. No. I mean if there was some big, 127 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: strong killer out there unting all the pigeons in the building, 128 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: what am I going to take him down? No? I 129 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: might maybe give him offer him water because he needs 130 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: to live too. Well. Yes, I mean, it's hard work 131 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: if you can get it. It's good to work if 132 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: you can get it. It's hard work if you can 133 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: get it. That podcasting and a hard day's work and 134 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: a hard day's work is good. Hard day's work, It's 135 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: a hard day's work is a good work. But only 136 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: if you can get it. But but here's the thing, though, 137 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,239 Speaker 1: I actually don't You don't need to harm the pigeon, 138 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: because what's beautiful about this gorgeous ecosystem we live in 139 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: called yes, the Island of Brooklyn, is that there's a 140 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: natural balance to things. You don't actually need to harm 141 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: the pigeons. They will generally stay out of your way. 142 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: If you just did nothing, they would not be having 143 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: origins on my ac unit. They would just be like 144 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: occasionally visiting and then leaving. Well, and you bring up 145 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: a really important fact which is kind of a tenant 146 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: of my life. And I've felt this way about a 147 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: lot of topics, and I feel I continue to feel 148 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: this way about a lot of topics. The correct way 149 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: to feel is always neutral. If you feel neither positive 150 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: nor negative about the pigeons, everything will be fine. It's 151 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: when you love the pigeons, it sucks everything up. When 152 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: you hate the pigeons, it wucks everything up. If you 153 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: just let them be, life finds a way and the 154 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: pigeons some will die and some will live, and that 155 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: is perfect. The perfect amount of pigeons is some dying 156 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: and some living. One hundred percent. I could not agree more. 157 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 1: And I would go so far as to say, you know, 158 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: you should basically be centrist and everything except politics. That's true. 159 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: And I have to say I have taken the opposite 160 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: approach to the rats in my backyard. For an update 161 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: for the listeners bringing, actually I cannot go into that 162 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: because when when we did go into it in the 163 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: original intro, it bumped me out, then we can't. And 164 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: I do feel like it might bump some listeners out. 165 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: But let's just say no one is say the rats 166 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: are not thriving. Let's just say that they're not thriving. 167 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 1: They're they're um sort of looking to move out of 168 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: the city, if you know what I mean. Yeah, they're 169 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: being forceful or removed. No, they're looking, they're thinking about, 170 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: you know, Philadelphia. Let's just say that they're being priced 171 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: out like many of us who will be in it, 172 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:30,839 Speaker 1: they're being chemically priced out. They're being you know, what 173 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: I would love is a is a kind of Frost 174 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: Nixon style debate between you and then the pigeon guy 175 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: on my block that actually living for the pigeons and 176 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: and wants to actually breed them so that they take 177 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: over the city. Yeah. I mean the worst part of 178 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,719 Speaker 1: that is like he would win. Like I'm just I 179 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: get so flustered in a debate setting, like a true 180 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: debate setting, I get upset you do, whereas I'll say it, 181 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: I thrive a debate. So oh, I mean that's I mean, 182 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to literally attack you. One of the 183 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: most toxic personalities is like I love a good spirited debate. 184 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: I know. Well, it's because I did debate in high school. 185 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 1: Oh oh, and can I tell you something. You know, 186 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,599 Speaker 1: I of course was perceptive enough to get out, and 187 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 1: I was like, I know this is toxic, and I 188 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,959 Speaker 1: know that if I if I follow this road, I 189 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: will become Pete Buddha Jedge. I knew that in my heart, 190 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 1: and so that's why I got out and became an 191 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: altar writer performer. However, that stays with you. It's like 192 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,719 Speaker 1: how people that you know were raised Catholic still have 193 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 1: that Catholic guilt even though they are now, you know, 194 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: actually receiving multiple loads a day. I kind of feel 195 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: that way with the religion of high school debate, where like, yes, 196 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: I have moved on technically, but I haven't done the internal. 197 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 1: I haven't decolonized from within. No, Well, because high school 198 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 1: debate is trauma and say that, and so you're walking 199 00:10:56,120 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: around dripping in trauma, and we're gonna have to do 200 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: a lot of work, and because of capitalism, you have 201 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: to work a job, and so you don't have the 202 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,959 Speaker 1: time to do it. I mean, capitalism kind of makes 203 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: high school debaters out of all of us or worse. Yeah, 204 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: we're worse rat killers. There is something honestly, if yeah, 205 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: there actually something to do it, Like if it was 206 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: like if I didn't have to work, I would not 207 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 1: necessarily care so much that the rats were thriving in 208 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,719 Speaker 1: my backyard. But it's like I have a job. Well, 209 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: it's a dog eat dog world, and you feel, actually 210 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: in the economy, like you're competing with the rats because 211 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: I am, because I am, because you are because you are. 212 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: I mean, who knows what they'll come for next? I 213 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: mean we are days away from a rat getting on 214 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 1: Vultures Comics to watch list my days away. I mean 215 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 1: one has already happened. Whoa um? I mean should we 216 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: start the up now? I think we should. We should 217 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,479 Speaker 1: start the EPP. I think this is such a flawless, 218 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: impeccable intro. I mean this EPP. And I'll say this 219 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: to Hannah's credit. You know, we kind of restarted the 220 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: intro a few times. We were having WiFi issues whatever, 221 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: and I was so afraid that she would lose that 222 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 1: podcast guest spark that she she came in with all 223 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: this good will and would be like, what the hell 224 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: do you these guys think they are? Making me start 225 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: over again. But I actually think he made her stronger 226 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: as a guest. I think she got to tap into 227 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: a sort of a caring side because she saw me 228 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: struggling and she decided to help, and she really was helped. 229 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,839 Speaker 1: She is the mother we never had. She has the 230 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: sister anyone would want. She is the daughter of the 231 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 1: daughter of the United States of America. And so give 232 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: it up, ladies and gentlemen, for the first daughter of 233 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: the United States of America. From HBO Max's Hacks. I 234 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: would like to welcome Mrs. She just got married.

It's like you're 245 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: so afraid of chosen family that even your biological family, 246 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: you got to keep it in the family. Literally. Um, 247 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,719 Speaker 1: so what's happen? I'm chilling? UM. I wanted to say 248 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: something about canceling in general, because I know you guys 249 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,959 Speaker 1: are talking about that in the intro. I just want 250 00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: to say, like, I have never begrudged anyone for canceling, 251 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: for being late, Like there's no element of any feeling 252 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: negative feeling for me if someone is like literally an 253 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: hour late, like truly like canceling. Like for me, I 254 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: think it's like a very because I'm a d h 255 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: D girl and I am Oh I set my alarm 256 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: for twelve pm, not twelve am, and oh I put 257 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: this in my calendar wrong, and like, oh, you know, 258 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: I'm spiraling, and so I can't make it like I 259 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: have so much respect for people who cancel and are late. 260 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: And can I say something else about canceling. It's easy 261 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: bring a book. Yeah, if you're afraid someone will cancel 262 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: or or not canceling, but like be late, just bring 263 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: a book. Suddenly you have Suddenly you are consuming culture, 264 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: you are actually being You're actually quite frankly, and I 265 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: say this about some of my best friends probably having 266 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: a better experience and talking to some of them. You know, 267 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: if you're just reading a critically acclaimed novel and say that, 268 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: I think you guys are both being so toxic, so inconsiderate. Um, 269 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: I think you know. I think there's a window of 270 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: acceptability when it comes to lateness. And then I think 271 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: if you're rolling up a half hour late, there better 272 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: be a damn good reason, you know, damn good reason. 273 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: And what I'll say is just I only speak for myself. 274 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 1: You can be late on me. I'm not going to 275 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: necessarily do that on you. But if you were late 276 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: on me, I would say, take your time, stop for coffee, Like, 277 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: I don't want you to have any stress in your 278 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 1: life because I've been late and I have canceled and 279 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: I felt that stress and I don't want it for you. Yeah. 280 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: You know, if people talk about the other kind of 281 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: cancel culture, I would argue this kind is more toxic, 282 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: like the unwritten rules around canceling not canceling. How how 283 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: early do you want to tell someone you're going to 284 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: cancel being late? I would say, there's something there. Yeah, 285 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: I think you're right. I also want to just say 286 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: that I was I caught myself listening to you guys 287 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: like during the intro and being like, oh, I'm listening 288 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 1: to a podcast, asked, And at first I was like 289 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: smiling because like obviously you can't see my face, and 290 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: I was like, you know, like being an audience member, 291 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: and then I like dipped out and just kind of 292 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: like like dead eyes, like I felt like I was 293 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: truly listening to a podcast, which technically I was, but 294 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: live it's very exciting. I was really into it. Well, 295 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: we always like crave the guests approval while we are 296 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: talking at the beginning in a way that is like 297 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 1: truly very childish and like, so in case we do 298 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: a new intro um we were having typical difficulties of course, 299 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: and you were blank faced, and I was like, that's 300 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: what I'll say. You know, if we do record a 301 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: new intro, we will send it to you, Hannah, and 302 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: then we would like you to record a video on 303 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: your reactions to what we're saying, um, just because otherwise 304 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: we won't feel safe and ready to release the app. 305 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: And I will do that, and I will say that 306 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm feeling close to you because the reason I brought 307 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: that up is because I'm the same way, and I 308 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: would obviously be looking to the two of you or 309 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 1: I where the tables turned. Um, And I just wanted 310 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 1: to clarify that my dead eyes was actually captivation. I 311 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: thought I was in my home going about my day, 312 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: listening to my two friends who made me feel less alone, 313 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: and that's that's what that was. Oh, Hannah, Well, you know, 314 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: I mean that's the thing with the podcasting, is that 315 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: really the best case scenario is someone actually dissociating like 316 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: it's there. Really, it's not like, you know, you're on 317 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: a stage and you want the audience to be clapping 318 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: and laughing. Actually, what you want is to just seamlessly 319 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 1: integrate yourself into that person, chopping up carrots and trying 320 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: to forget about their pathetic life. Correct. And I have 321 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 1: a question. Do you consider yourself on a daily basis 322 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: more of a podcast guest or a podcast host? Thank 323 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: you for asking? Um? Oh my god, you know I 324 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: have to just be honest and say guest. Um, I 325 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: think it would be a better thing to be a host, 326 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: But the reality is that I think I am, at 327 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: this point in my life a guest. You know, it's 328 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: interesting you would think that considering yourself a host would 329 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: be more kind of main character syndrome. But in my mind, 330 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying this as a as an insult 331 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: to you, of course, um, but in my mind, I'm like, Okay, 332 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: being a guest is more main character syndrome because you're like, 333 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: I'm I'm the one being interviewed. Correct. I agree with 334 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 1: you on that, and I and I and I say 335 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 1: that because host would be selling I would aspire to. 336 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 1: But the reality, unfortunately, is that I am a guest. Yeah. 337 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 1: I think we're really starting to pinpoint something. I think. 338 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: As a host, I'm starting to feel almost a custodial energy. 339 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: I feel almost like I I sweep the stage, I'm 340 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: I'm sort of like, um, you know, putting flowers on 341 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 1: the table and and and I'm like setting the space 342 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: for for for others. Um. And it's like, yes, I'm 343 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: also there. I'm also being like ha ha ha ha, 344 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: but it's still more of a It's like this is 345 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 1: my home, Like, yeah, could you not? Could you not 346 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: put your feet there? Like I'm sort of like there 347 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 1: are rules and it's, um, you know, I miss that 348 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: sort of free flowing And in my early twenties I 349 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 1: was such a guest, you would have died. I was 350 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: such a guest. Yeah. I think there's dignity in hosting 351 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: and like a really like a level of respect that 352 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 1: goes with hosting. And I think like, unfortunately I am 353 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: and so I am in my guest era. Um, but 354 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: I can only hope parrish it, Hannah. I will. I 355 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: was because as soon as you hit that thirty mark, 356 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: you're going to get a podcast deal. And I can 357 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 1: feel it, You're gonna get that call and you're gonna say, 358 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: where do I can? I am not youthful anymore? They 359 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: want me to host me? Yeah, yeah, it is. I 360 00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,440 Speaker 1: would say, you know, podcasting specifically, it's not just that 361 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: you're hosting someone, it's actually because that other person is 362 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: the main event. It's almost like you are hosting them 363 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,479 Speaker 1: but in their house. It's like you get to their 364 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: house and you have thirty minutes to get ready to 365 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: play act hosting them in their own house. Wow wow. 366 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: And in that way, you know, it's that limital space 367 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: of like you never feel at home ship. Wow. That's 368 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: really and that's something that's something we have to go 369 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 1: through every week. And the only respite, the only respite 370 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 1: we have is reading ad reads for nuts dot com 371 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 1: and that's We're lucky, George. I don't think I ever 372 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 1: realized how you just like that was a really window 373 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: into how traumatic podcasting is for you, you know, and 374 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: I love it and I love it and it's and 375 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: it's my one it's my one skill. I've actually been 376 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 1: banned from all performing venues and they said, we only 377 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: want to see you on a zoom window, and so 378 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 1: it really is is tough. But you know, there's like 379 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: do you everget the anxiety in the hosting position, because 380 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 1: I've only done it once. We did a sort of 381 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: small capsule, a limited capsule of the of like the 382 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: Hacks season two podcast, and they had me host one 383 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: of the episodes, talking to Paul, Lucia and Jen and 384 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 1: it was like I had this moment of and I 385 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: don't know if it's just like being an overthinker, but 386 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: it was like, I'm starting to ask a question, and 387 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: then midway through the question, I'm realizing that everyone's looking 388 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: at me, and then I'm getting distracted from the fact 389 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: that I'm asking a question, and I'm thinking about the 390 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 1: fact that I'm distracted, and then I am thus taken 391 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: out of the question I am asking, and then I 392 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: am starting to panic because we're recording and they're looking 393 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 1: straight at me. And then it's just this like insane 394 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: spiral um And that is part of the hosting element 395 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: that I fear and I have trouble with, and I 396 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: wonder if you experience that. I mean, the worst thing 397 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: you can find yourself doing is in the middle of 398 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: asking a question, starting a new clause because you're second 399 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 1: guessing yourself. Like if I wanted to ask you, you know, 400 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 1: where's your shirt from, I'd be like, so where is 401 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: your because I noticed the caller. It's just like and 402 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 1: then you're like, oh no, what am I going to 403 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: do now? And I guess I have to finish that 404 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: thought before I get back to the main thought, but 405 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,479 Speaker 1: by that time it won't be a complete sentence anymore. 406 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 1: And now I'm actually thinking about myself more than I'm 407 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: thinking about the person that I'm talking to. You just 408 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: painted like the saddest picture I've ever seen. That is 409 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: so I have been in that. I've been there and 410 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: I felt that pain, and to capture it like that, 411 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: I'm I think you broke new ground. Well, you know, 412 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: as past guests Data Hamilt told us we tell ourselves 413 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: stories in order to live. She coined that phrase so 414 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 1: and I think ever since I heard that, it's really 415 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: been a game changer for me, the definition of life literally. Um, 416 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: should we do our first segment? I think there would 417 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: be nothing that would make me horny in a safe 418 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: and ethical way more than doing our first segment. Oh wow, incredible, Hannah, 419 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: our first segment. This is of course a podcast ostensibly 420 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: about straight culture sometimes, and our first segment is called 421 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: straight Shooters. And in this segment, we ask you a 422 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: series of rapid fire, nonsensical questions to gauge your familiarity 423 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 1: with in complicity in straight culture. And you have to 424 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: choose simply between one thing or another thing. And the 425 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: one rule is you can't ask any follow up questions 426 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:33,479 Speaker 1: about how the game works. Sam take it away, okay, 427 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: Christianity or miss congeniality. Christianity for sure, the sound of 428 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,200 Speaker 1: music or the taste of a cop salad. Hold the 429 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: bacon dressing on the side, on the hold the bacon 430 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:54,719 Speaker 1: dressing on the side. Use your name taken or being forsaken, 431 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: Use her name taken. Being a successful businessman but never 432 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: having read a book in your life or being a 433 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: sophisticated urbanite artist but not being able to locate Ukraine 434 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 1: on a map. Being a successful businessman but never having 435 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: read a book in your life. Yeah, huge, Fighting to 436 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: the death or kissing than having sex, I would say, 437 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: fighting to the dead, okay, Hannah, traveling up state to 438 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,959 Speaker 1: see the fall foliage, or taking an extra shift at 439 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: work so you can pay off your mortgage. Um, taking 440 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,479 Speaker 1: an extra shift at work so you can pay off 441 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 1: your mortgage. Okay. Fish and chips, chips and dips or 442 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:56,679 Speaker 1: piss and ships? Would you mind repeating that fish and chips, 443 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,160 Speaker 1: chips and dips or ships and piss gods? Him? Your 444 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: connection is just tough right now? If you wouldn't know, Sam, actually, 445 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: could you repeat that a few more times once more? 446 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 1: Is it really work? It is? I'm gonna have to 447 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: go ahead and fit with say and fish and chips. Sam. Wow, 448 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 1: that's not what I expected, but I respected. Yeah, that's 449 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: not what I expected. But you know what, that's actually 450 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 1: more subversive for you to pick fish and chips. M Yeah, 451 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: you're doing Actually, you're doing like one of the rules 452 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: of comedy. That's like leading us to think you're going 453 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 1: to choose ship and piss and then choosing chips ships. Anyway, Hannah, 454 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: your final question is the cats me out or Jake 455 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:52,120 Speaker 1: Choen hall ow Ow stupid.

Yeah, I think you got a thousand dollars. 461 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 1: And I also I think what I was appreciating throughout 462 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: your play of that game was the business mindset. I 463 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: could see that you had the billionaire mindset and you 464 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: were ready to trade, sell, you know, invest. I could 465 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: see it all math leate you mean, but with business 466 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 1: terms flying around your head.

It's the 473 00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: opposite of a nonprofit. You actually take money from the poor. Yeah, yes, 474 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: that's that billion.

So, Hannah, I want you in 481 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 1: your own words. Of course, I would not ever ask 482 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: you to do something in someone else's words. That would 483 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: be deeply problematic. No, and no, acting is problematic. Yeah, 484 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 1: it's like you're lying about like who you are, like 485 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: what year you're from. Okay, that's crazy.

We need you to put that aside, 490 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:07,640 Speaker 1: okay and actually for once be yourself okay and explained 491 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: to me and to my dear co host Sam what 492 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: your topic is for the day. My topic is trying 493 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: to make connections at a hotel. I'm going to go 494 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 1: ahead and expand on that. So this topic is inspired 495 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: by something that has happened to me before. I recently 496 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: stayed at a boutique hotel in Palm Springs, UM, one 497 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: of those only thirty rooms, and it's very chic and 498 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: garden like and very chill, twenty one and up, no 499 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: kids allowed, vibes, and I with my boyfriend Alex Edleman 500 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: have gone great comic We have gone two times, and 501 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: both times we've gone there has been the same other 502 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: couple there. Now, I just want to say that these 503 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 1: people are perfectly wonderful and I wish them no ill 504 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 1: will and God bless them, and I want to just 505 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 1: drive that point home. But the attempt to socialize and 506 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: to maybe foster a double date, and it's not creepy, 507 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: and it's not like they're not like doing anything sketchy. 508 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: It's it is a pure intention and I can't stress 509 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 1: that enough. But just the idea of like a straight 510 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: double date or like you know, the guy talking to 511 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: Alex and the woman talking to me, like everything about 512 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 1: that for me is just an area of straightness that 513 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: really makes me want to go back to the room, 514 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, go back in the closet, 515 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 1: so to speak. Sure, I mean, well, actually, go go, go, go, 516 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: so out of the closet that I'm no longer even 517 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,959 Speaker 1: dating that. Yeah. Yeah, it's so traumatic that you might 518 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: actually your relationship might dissolve on the spot. So it's 519 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: just that thing of like, yeah, no, we haven't, we 520 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: haven't all we have a we have a year past 521 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,719 Speaker 1: to hunting gardens. Yeah, no, definitely, you know what, all 522 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: let me get your info, let me get your you know. 523 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: I mean, that'll make anyone want to be a lesbian separatist. 524 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: Lesbian separatist. Wow, if my Instagram handle wasn't already hand 525 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 1: on binder, that incredible. You know. I think what you're 526 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 1: describing is also it's like a form of course. It's 527 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 1: like a form of non romantic, non sexual courtship. It's 528 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: like the most platonic possible. We're like, okay, we're doing this, 529 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:48,239 Speaker 1: but to what end? Yes? Yes, well, And I think 530 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 1: the straightest part about it is the lack of end. 531 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:55,719 Speaker 1: Like if I was at a gay resort twenty one 532 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: plus no kids, and another couple came up to us 533 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: and was like, hey, we should get dinner, I'd be like, Okay, 534 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 1: they're trying to hook up, and I would be like, 535 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: so that at least I know what your intention is 536 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 1: and I and I appreciate and respect this courtship and 537 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: it's kind of fun. At least have the decency to 538 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: want to have sex with me. Correct And ultimately, that 539 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: is what I'm saying. You know, I think that's Sam. 540 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 1: You hit the nail right on the head. There is 541 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: something about it that is just I mean, I would 542 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 1: almost rather them be trying to do that and then 543 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: it would be like, oh, no, thank you, thanks, but 544 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: no thanks, and then it would be sort of it 545 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 1: would be done right, you know, right, You're like, let's 546 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: get this, let's get the orgy part over with, and 547 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: then maybe we can talk about your time share exactly. 548 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 1: It's just there's never a moment where I am so 549 00:31:54,320 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: overwhelmed by straight culture than in that moment. You're bringing 550 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: up an interesting angle that I feel like it's not 551 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: brought up much on this podcast, which is when the 552 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 1: straightness is hurled onto someone where it's like, in that situation, 553 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: you are the woman and you have to play that part, 554 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: and it's like rarely like when you're with your normal friends, 555 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: that's not so much the case, but a stranger couple, 556 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 1: it's like my role here is woman, that his role 557 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 1: is man. Yeah, they're talking about what year like these 558 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: trees were planted, and she's asking me where my swimsuits from. 559 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: And it's like that's the two genders you know. When 560 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: you're with Yeah, when you're with close friends, gender doesn't exist. 561 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 1: When you're with strangers, you're in a box by experience. 562 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: It really is. They don't know what to do with you. 563 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: They look at you and they say, I will literally 564 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 1: scream until she tells me what exactly her gender is, 565 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: otherwise I will actually pull a fire alarm and make 566 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: everyone leave this boutique hotel. Yeah, totally. I mean it's 567 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: and it's just like, you know, I think like there's 568 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: something about like the stranger nous of of straightness, Like 569 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: there is at least a common bond were that to 570 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: be happening with queer people, Um, the stranger nous of 571 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: like and this has happened with like multiple couples, Like 572 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: it's almost something that happens often in a situation like this, 573 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: and it's just like it's it's just like oh yeah, 574 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 1: like it's just it never goes beyond small talk that's 575 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: the thing that's the problem. I feel like if I 576 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: were in a situation and it was more queer like, 577 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 1: it would go far beyond small talk, because there is 578 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: that sort of common experience. But that's just like sort 579 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 1: of um, you know, it's fish and chips in a word, chips, 580 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 1: it's fish and chips. You know. I think you're pointing 581 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: to something actually incredibly fruitful, which is straight straight people 582 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 1: have not landed on a definition for intimacy, not and 583 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 1: I don't mean romantic or sexual intimacy. I mean like, 584 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 1: when do you know that you have hit that you 585 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 1: have like surpassed some kind of boundary when making small 586 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: talk with a strape person. Never in fact, you might 587 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,719 Speaker 1: think this. You might be like, oh god, small talk again, 588 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 1: blah blah, and then you realize for them, this is 589 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 1: the most interesting conversation they've had in their life. Completely, completely, 590 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 1: completely damn what an attack. Recently, I was at a 591 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 1: gay swimming hole and then I was like in the 592 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: town that's like near the gay swimming hole, and this 593 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 1: seventy seventy one he told me his age seventy one 594 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: year old man, My window was up.

It 659 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 1: would be it would be the elevator from a bank, 660 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 1: from a bank, from a bank, it's the bank elevator. 661 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: It's the bank, it's Chase Bank, it's specifically Chase Bank elevator. Yeah. 662 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:50,840 Speaker 1: I also think at a hotel is specific to because 663 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: hotels do have a inherently sexual energy, especially a boutique. 664 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 1: One sure is that only made only I know it's 665 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 1: not only you. It's just very charging. It's just like 666 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 1: this is your go to. It's like it's like it 667 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: would be you. It's like when we were talking about 668 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 1: airports and we're like, airports do have a sexual vibe. 669 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 1: When we were talking about like one time at one 670 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 1: of our live shows, we were talking about whether or 671 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: not it's straight to talk about vacation plans at work, 672 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: which to me is the straightest possible thing, and being like, well, 673 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 1: you know, me and Alice and the kids have got 674 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: a place in the Hampton's blah blah, and SAMs like, no, 675 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: that's gay because it's like gay people talking to one 676 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: another about going on vacation. I'm like, no, they're not gay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 677 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 1: we're staying at the Legoland hotel. No, I am completely 678 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: in a bubble and I can't get out of it. 679 00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 1: There's well I don't really want to, but it's so 680 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 1: it's so funny. But I understand what you're saying. I mean, 681 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 1: I understand like the world in which a hotel is 682 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,720 Speaker 1: is sexual. But to me, hotel is so like Hilton 683 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,839 Speaker 1: in in suitets. Like it's like there's a breakfast bar 684 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 1: and there are people there for like a midwestern you know, 685 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: conference on human resource technology. But that's exactly what's like. 686 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: I guess I could see it as being sexual in 687 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: a hook up way because you know, you're just like 688 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 1: I'm putting my I'm dropping my stuff off for the night, 689 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 1: you know, and then I'm out of here in the morning, 690 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 1: no trace, of course, no clean up. You know. I'm 691 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 1: just like I'm hitting and I'm quitting, you know what 692 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 1: I mean. And of course there's like the stereotype of 693 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,320 Speaker 1: like going there if you're having an affair, you go 694 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: to a hotel if you are with a sex worker 695 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 1: like that. There there are those kind of sexual or 696 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: like a motel is a very like you know, so 697 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 1: called c D space, right. Oh, A hotel is such 698 00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: a beautiful anonymous no one. Oh, I could be anyone. 699 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:57,719 Speaker 1: When I met the Hilton in a breakfast, yeah, you 700 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,839 Speaker 1: know what, You're right, you won me over. But then 701 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: what I would say is that then maybe a boutique 702 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,720 Speaker 1: hotel then is like, well now we're in. Now it's pinterest. 703 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 1: That's true. Maybe a boutique is less sexual because it's 704 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 1: like that's yes, yeah, it's like, oh, well, why are 705 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:14,320 Speaker 1: you here? Why are you boutique? The Boutique Hotel is 706 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:18,959 Speaker 1: more rehab than it is. The Boutique Hotel is more 707 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: Donald Draper you know Season seven. You know, it's more 708 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 1: retreat than it is. It's like high energy. I think 709 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 1: the Boutique Hotel has a more like curated vibe. It's rehab, 710 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 1: but no one has quite decided what they're trying to 711 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: run away from. They're just like literally anything, give me anything. Yeah. 712 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 1: I have a question. In your experience with couples coming 713 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 1: up to you and trying to befriend you, where in 714 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,919 Speaker 1: the Boutique Hotel would you say it is most likely 715 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:54,800 Speaker 1: to happen. It's always at the pool and everyone's naked. 716 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 1: It's like there's that factor like we're wearing our brawn underwear. 717 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,560 Speaker 1: By the way, by the way, everyone's in underwear, by 718 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,240 Speaker 1: the way. Oh, all these conversations were all in our underwear, 719 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 1: by the way, and in a bathing suit is underwear. 720 00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 1: That's you're ate such a good point and not to 721 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: sound sex negative, but there is something about being in 722 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,760 Speaker 1: mixed company by a pool where you're like, you shouldn't 723 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:15,719 Speaker 1: be able to see me right now. Well, we just 724 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:20,360 Speaker 1: needed to as a society say, braun underwear equals bathing 725 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 1: suit and swim like swim trunks equals boxers, and like, 726 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 1: let's not. I cannot believe that we in this day 727 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: and age are still like differentiating. Like so for the 728 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 1: purposes of this, it's like I'm in my braun underwear, 729 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: Like I'm in and you're and you're you know, being 730 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 1: like is it cedar Wood, you know, like talks about 731 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 1: the fucking oh my god, the lilacs gorgeous.

Yeah, we're in 734 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:53,280 Speaker 1: our brawn and like it's like that's that's another factor, 735 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: you know, it's all happening by the pool to de 736 00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 1: sexualize a place like that up. Yeah, yeah, it's cruel. 737 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:04,880 Speaker 1: Have you ever been on the other side of this 738 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 1: where you think a couple is cool and want to 739 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 1: get to know them and want to build a sort 740 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 1: of relationship. I have to say no, I have to 741 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:20,040 Speaker 1: say I tend to mind my own mind, my own 742 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: self business. I mind my own business. UM. Not to 743 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,400 Speaker 1: say that there's anything aggressive about that. UM about not 744 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 1: doing that and making friends, that's awesome, UM. But like 745 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 1: I feel like the times just for me personally at 746 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 1: this time in my life. If I am at a hotel, 747 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 1: I think it is to escape everything and just to 748 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 1: you know, literally read by the pool and you know, 749 00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 1: chill and and hang out.

Like 755 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:12,320 Speaker 1: the vibe is not social whatsoever. And I guess, you know, 756 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 1: I'm I'm that's a personal thing for me. I feel 757 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 1: like if I am there, I am going to recharge, 758 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 1: you know, from being sort of over from over exerting 759 00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 1: myself in very sorts.

Yeah, 941 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 1: just like dried blood everywhere, black cavernous space. Oh, that 942 00:55:56,280 --> 00:56:00,680 Speaker 1: would be so funny. Shortest show ever. We would need 943 00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:04,359 Speaker 1: to have like fourteen opening acts so that its keep 944 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:12,759 Speaker 1: falling off the stage. Other people having you know how 945 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:15,400 Speaker 1: they do like fifty first jokes every year, someone to 946 00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:17,279 Speaker 1: do the show that has all comedians who have just 947 00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 1: had their wisdoms.

I want to give 1035 01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:45,160 Speaker 1: a shout out to wearing a T shirt with a blazer. Now, 1036 01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:47,920 Speaker 1: this is something that for many years I thought this 1037 01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,360 Speaker 1: is kind of you know, it's it's kind of giving 1038 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:55,720 Speaker 1: Jeremy Piven in Entourage. There's something biggelow about it. There's 1039 01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:58,760 Speaker 1: something that is tacky, you know, a graphic tea with 1040 01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:01,240 Speaker 1: a blazer. I don't. Oh, it's not for me. I 1041 01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:06,080 Speaker 1: feel like it's very um it's very Hollywood in parentheses derogatory. 1042 01:02:06,520 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 1: But recently I have started wearing a white T shirt 1043 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:12,520 Speaker 1: with a blazer. I don't think I've never felt more sophisticated. 1044 01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:15,919 Speaker 1: I've never felt more like a like an artistic urban nite. 1045 01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:19,320 Speaker 1: I've never felt more both Brooklyn and Manhattan at the 1046 01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:21,960 Speaker 1: same time it is. You can dress it up, you 1047 01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:23,640 Speaker 1: can dress it down. If you're unsure of a dress 1048 01:02:23,800 --> 01:02:25,760 Speaker 1: code and you don't know if it's collar or if 1049 01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:27,840 Speaker 1: it's no color, wear a T shirt with a blazer 1050 01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:34,880 Speaker 1: and so that's not for me. Um, that's huge. I 1051 01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:37,280 Speaker 1: think that is one of those things that is kind 1052 01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:40,200 Speaker 1: of chic because it has been so maligned. Well, you 1053 01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:42,280 Speaker 1: just you need to go simple because it's still I 1054 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:44,760 Speaker 1: do still think wearing a graphic tea with a blazer 1055 01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:48,200 Speaker 1: not good. No, I think that a T shirt with 1056 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 1: a blazer also goes to the realm of suit with 1057 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 1: nice leather like sneakers, which I also like. And I 1058 01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:59,560 Speaker 1: think that we can put that in a group. Um, 1059 01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: and I think it is sort of our generation's take 1060 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 1: on the suit. And I think we can own that. Yeah, 1061 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:09,280 Speaker 1: we our generation invented wearing a T shirt with a 1062 01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 1: blazer out there judging us for eating our avocado toasts 1063 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 1: and not having mortgages. I don't see you reinventing fashion. No, 1064 01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:27,080 Speaker 1: I don't. Okay, Hannah, it's your turn, whenever you are ready.
