They know what they have 33 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 1: over me now, and that makes me really scared to 34 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: move out with my life because am I going to 35 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: stop eating oysters? Never? Never, in a day? But now 36 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: that I know what they can do to me, it's 37 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: a very abusive relationship. Thank you for saying the words. 38 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: I'm not even using that. I know not to use 39 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: that word lightly.

Yes, but what 169 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: was when Giselle wants to give him the tour of 170 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: the house and then and then a scala c's like 171 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: the bear stairs, spiral staircase, nothing to nothing, and she goes, um, 172 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: I'll come back, And then her confessional is, you know 173 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: when there's just when they're stable steps and you know 174 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 1: there's a door, I'll be back. But like I'm like 175 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: the delivery on the linary on that was when there's 176 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: a door, I'll be back, I'll be back. So funny. 177 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,599 Speaker 1: It wasn't like we're building a legacy. This house is 178 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: a piece of ship. She was just like, no, no, no, 179 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: like you know when there's like a door there and 180 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: functioning stairs all that's what I'll come back. So funny, 181 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 1: so good. I'm ready to say, escala legend. I'm ready 182 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: to see her at the Legends ball.

Speaking of him, how do we checked him? 185 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: But speaking of legends, this is what I realized today 186 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: when I was thinking about our guest. By the way, 187 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: this has been a long time coming time coming kind 188 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: of in a way. Without him, we're not up here 189 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: being the culture restas. He was really the first cultureista 190 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: if you really think about it, if you really think 191 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: about it, this is someone with like an academic understanding 192 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: of what goes on in culture. I mean I would 193 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: say like I would, I was gonna say star Turn, 194 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: but it's like we've known about his sort of mind 195 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: and the way that it thinks about pop culture. But 196 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 1: in the Framing Britney Spears documentary, you see him and 197 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: you go, well, here's an authority. I have been waiting 198 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: to talk to him about all that as well, because 199 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: it's been a lot has gone down since we did 200 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: our Brittany episode, and to have a better guest I 201 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: don't think would be possible. When we say original culture Resta, 202 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: we're well, we're saying everyone out there and maybe some 203 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: public system readers don't even know.

Someone with a curatorial eye something 207 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 1: had to have presence to be able to say to 208 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,199 Speaker 1: to you through the camera, through the screen.

I think 328 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: Dave should play the person that the voice because David Dave. 329 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: You've You've heard this your whole life, But I feel 330 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: like Dave really just does have this such a good timber, 331 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:43,239 Speaker 1: a good voice. Thank you so much. From where does 332 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: that come from? Oh? God? Uh you know t in 333 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: the Morton Now, I don't. Um. I did do radio 334 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: really early. Um. I lied my way into a radio 335 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: job in high school and h and was on the 336 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: air that I was a student of the college that 337 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: the station was. It was the radio station four kay 338 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 1: y m C in Sat. Louis, Missouri, And uh yeah, 339 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:11,399 Speaker 1: I was like, I was a sophomore in high school 340 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: and I just rode my bike out and had a 341 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon show. And I don't know, I don't It's 342 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 1: just it's just my voice. I'm going to say something. 343 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,880 Speaker 1: I guess there are some radio voices people with who 344 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: do radio, whose voices when they are out in the wild, 345 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 1: when you hear them in the real and real line, 346 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: it's a little jarring to go, wait a minute, what 347 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: is this affect? Is this? Are you locked into this 348 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: with Dave with Dave Holmes? And it's only ever been Wow, 349 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: that man has a nice for because effortlessness is a 350 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: part of your thing. Because this is and this comes 351 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 1: back to the VJ of it all. So I actually, 352 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: like when they were trying to reboot VJs, I think 353 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 1: Bowhen when we were right out of college, I actually 354 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: auditioned to be like and like I went, I went 355 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,159 Speaker 1: and did like the adian forward or whatever, and that 356 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 1: like didn't go bad, but it didn't move forward. But 357 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: I just remember thinking while I was there, how do 358 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: you just seem so cool? You know what I mean? 359 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: Like that that was part of because everyone was in 360 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 1: the room being like, Okay, I'm trying to be a VJ. 361 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: And the number one thing that they all have in 362 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: common was they were able to project like an ease 363 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 1: and a cool factor that made you want to like 364 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 1: buy into this like young cool MTV brand. So I 365 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: guess my question is like, how did you get into 366 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 1: that space? I know, I know how you did because 367 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: of the show, but which I think would be really 368 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,199 Speaker 1: interesting to talk about now after like we've seen so 369 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: many reality shows become that weird. It's so weird, but 370 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: also like, how do you navigate that, like I'm trying 371 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: to be cool professionally? Does that kind of Yeah? I 372 00:19:54,359 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 1: think I benefited at the beginning from just being like um, 373 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: because of the way I got the job. I kind 374 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: of came in and by the time I made it 375 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: a the top ten, I was like, I'm not gonna 376 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: get this. I'm not going to get So it was 377 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: a competition called want to be a right, yeah, and 378 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 1: it was it was basically, I mean, it's weird, like 379 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: when people bring it up now, they're like, oh, you 380 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: were on season one of that thing, and it's like 381 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: that thing was four hours on a Saturday afternoon. That 382 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 1: was it basically like a couple of days on the 383 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 1: live show and then a four hour event on Saturday. 384 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: But be yeah. It was like it was an audition 385 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: up until the top ten, and then the viewers called in, 386 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: called in and voted and chows from there. And there 387 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: was this wild character named Jesse, and I was like, well, 388 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: this is obviously the person who's gonna win. So I 389 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: was like, I'm just gonna sort of treat this like 390 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: an interview and just like meet people and talk to 391 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: them and be normal because I'm not. I can't out 392 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: character the character, you know what I mean, and it 393 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: would be dumb to try. So it's like I'm just 394 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: gonna I guess. Like it took not knowing I wasn't 395 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 1: gonna get it took all of the pressure off. So 396 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: I was able to just sort of like chill and 397 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: do it. And then they ended up hiring me anyway, 398 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: and I was like, well, I'm not gonna change anything. 399 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 1: It wouldn't make sense for me to suddenly be like 400 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,479 Speaker 1: a big character you know, that doesn't come naturally, you know. 401 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 1: So what a what a what a great instinct to 402 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,920 Speaker 1: drop the artifice in the face of seeing someone maybe 403 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: the the guy who wants what was his name again, 404 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 1: Jesse Camp, Jessie Camp, maybe like I'm not. It's not 405 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: to say that he was artificial in that character, but 406 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: it's like for you to have I mean, I would 407 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: have completely gone the other way and been like, well, 408 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do what he's doing because that's what they 409 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: seem to like, and like, yeah, I just wouldn't. I 410 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,439 Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to do it. I just wouldn't. I wouldn't. 411 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be able. I wouldn't be able to keep 412 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 1: a straight face, you know what I mean. So so 413 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: I just sort of didn't. But I guess like that 414 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,479 Speaker 1: was another thing about it, too, is I remember like 415 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 1: reading VJ Copy it is really hard just to not 416 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 1: do what's up guys that that that like you have 417 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 1: of VJ and here we are going to talk where 418 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: about this person over here? Like it's so hard to 419 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: not go into that, but you are able to maintain 420 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: you And that I think was so that's such a 421 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: skill at such a talent. Thanks. Thanks, I mean yeah, 422 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 1: I mean, but it truly was just from like I 423 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: don't have the ability to be you know, to be 424 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: the big like I wouldn't be like a proper good 425 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: radio JA because I know it's not in me to 426 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: be like yeah yeah yeah yeah, so yeah, anyway, thank you. 427 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: That's lovely. It's lovely. That is like liberating self awareness 428 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: to know yourself back then, which I don't do you 429 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: think it's harder to know yourself now than it isn't 430 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: like the late nineties. I can't tell. I'm like if 431 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: I had grown up like just like ten years if 432 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 1: I if I was just born ten years earlier, would 433 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: I have been more anchored to stuff or would I 434 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,239 Speaker 1: have been like less available with my resource? Like what 435 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,479 Speaker 1: what would I have been like less in touch with 436 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: like things that I know?

And you know what I mean, Like, 443 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 1: how different do you think it would be for someone 444 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: now being like a representative to to all of the 445 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: youth with social media?

But I do like I 471 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: wonder what I would what kind of person I would 472 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: be if I were, you know, fifteen years younger and 473 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,440 Speaker 1: didn't grow up feeling like the only person like me 474 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: on the planet like it was. There was a lot 475 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: about that that was really terrible, obviously, um, but there 476 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: was also a lot about that was really good, like 477 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 1: instilled to drive within me to like prove myself and 478 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: and succeed and be heard and all that. And I 479 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 1: might not have that. If I found my tribe at 480 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 1: I might be a very specific kind of monster. You know. Yeah, 481 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: I'm glad that is interesting. Yeah, I think about that often. 482 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: I think about like, um, like if I were if 483 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 1: would I would I try as hard and work as 484 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: hard and like try to put myself out there as much, 485 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: improve so much if I didn't feel like there was 486 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: like a large part of my upbringing where I just 487 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 1: couldn't see myself represented ever, and so I wanted to 488 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 1: work to become that. And now it's like you look 489 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: around and that's like really not true anymore at all. 490 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 1: And like you, I often think, like why the like 491 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: basic way I phrase it. Sometimes it's like what if 492 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 1: I were straight, would I'd be a fucking monster? But 493 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 1: like I do think about that, like you know, like 494 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 1: and like you're grateful for the adversity or whatever it is, 495 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: but still it had to be hard. Forgive me if 496 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 1: this is too much. But did you remain closeted the 497 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: entire time I was out? But not on the air? 498 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 1: But not on the air, That's what I guess, which 499 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: is yeah, which is like I look back and I'm 500 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 1: like what what? What? What makes total sense to me? Now? 501 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 1: I don't. I mean it does to me too, but 502 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: it's it doesn't make it any less disappointing, you know 503 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: what I mean? Like I I do understand you know 504 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: that I was like not trying to rock the boat 505 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: and that and that there was no you know, blogs 506 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: and social media and ways to like continue sort of 507 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: doing your thing when the show ends, and it's you 508 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 1: know whatever you have to like wrangle the press into it. 509 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 1: And the press doesn't give they don't care. They you know, 510 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: they're like they don't care who I am or I'm 511 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 1: not having you know what I mean. It's like I'm 512 00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 1: not I'm not interesting in that way, so whatever, I 513 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: at it. But it's like, you know, I look back 514 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 1: and it's, you know, we were promoting the hell out 515 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: of eminem who said the F word and I and 516 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: it like never entered my mind not to participate in 517 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: it or to speak up in any way at all, 518 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 1: which is nuts. But anyway, I was out and I 519 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: was out of my private life. It's just that you know, yeah, 520 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: nobody cared enough to make it public and I didn't, 521 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: you know, I didn't do the thing. I didn't say 522 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 1: the words, you know, right, whether or not it's public. 523 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 1: I just feel like this is something that um, I 524 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: just I've just parroted this line ever since Beauty Wah 525 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: was was on this podcast. He was talking about Asian 526 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 1: people working in show biz. But I think that just 527 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: applies in a very general way to people who like 528 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 1: there was just no process probably for you to like 529 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 1: make it, or for anybody to to to have like 530 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: coming out and feeling good and safe about it publicly 531 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: to be an inevitable inevitability. Like now it just is 532 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 1: inevitable if you are queer, if you are sort of 533 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: like self defining in that way. Like it's hopefully people 534 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: feel somewhat comfortable with that or it's not. It doesn't 535 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: feel like this high risk thing in the way that 536 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: it used to be. But like I mean, I mean, yeah, 537 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: I mean, as soon as you brought up eminem, I'm like, oh, 538 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: of course, like that, that would completely discourage anyone who 539 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: worked at MTV to want to like publicly say, by 540 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,719 Speaker 1: the way, I'm gay. Yeah yeah, yeah, it was they. 541 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: I remember I remember this. I remember on say What Karaoke, 542 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 1: somebody did it like a Brittany or Christina or something, 543 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: and the navel was out and all that and whatever, 544 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: and I said, I said something like, uh, you know, 545 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: the straight boys are gonna love this or whatever, and 546 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: my and my producer in my ear was like, let's 547 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 1: take that again, I said why because basically, yeah, she 548 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: was like, you said, all the straight guys, just say 549 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: all the guys, and I was like, okay, and I did, 550 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: and I don't you know, I could have dug my 551 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: heels in and I didn't. Yeah, that's okay, that's weird. 552 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: It's just it's it's it's not weird. I'm looking I'm 553 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: looking at with you know, filter on it, you know 554 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: what I mean. Like, of course things were not then 555 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: the way they are now, and sometimes I think I 556 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: think with time we forget what it was like at 557 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: that time. But it was suffocating and it was also 558 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: not something because at that time, if you had been 559 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: an MTVVJ, which you were, and m Eminem is the 560 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 1: most played artist and most pushed artists, I mean, there 561 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: was a time where he truly ruled the channel. I 562 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 1: mean think I'll remember it. And you were to say 563 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: you're gay, it's almost like you're speaking out against him, 564 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, because he was so he 565 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: made such a part of his thing that he was homophobic, 566 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: that anyone gay like is naturally at odds with him 567 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: and therefore like you know, an enemy of his and 568 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: critical of him, and that is a dangerous game to 569 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: start playing when you need to be the one of 570 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: the faces of the channel and then you're at odds 571 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: with your place of work. Right, yeah, it's nothing but trouble. 572 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, but so yeah, I mean I was, you know, 573 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: I was like out and you know, bringing boyfriends to 574 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 1: events and stuff. It just didn't quite register. A different time, 575 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: a different time, a different era. Oh there's that new 576 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 1: Oyster place. You're never going to get it out of me. 577 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: It's just not gonna happens. Found Oyster was found Oyster. 578 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: It wasn't found Oyster. And I'm telling you, I'm telling you, 579 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: I will tell you after. But the thing is, like 580 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 1: I have to be able to go back there again, 581 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: and I just I don't want them to struggle, like 582 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 1: especially during this time of COVID. I can't be telling 583 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: that to a restaurant. I can't restaurant. I just can't. 584 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 1: Everybody's holding on by their fingertips. I'm excited for their 585 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: show where they saw an alien? Did you guys see that? 586 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: There's a Demi Leavitto show on Peacock where they saw 587 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 1: an alien. It's a documentary, it's a reality show. It's 588 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: what is it called but there it's literally coming out. 589 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 1: We love here. I just think there's a lot of 590 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: there's a lot happening right now with them, and it's interesting. 591 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: It's an announced week. It feels like yeah, or like 592 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: a new project. And which is not to say that 593 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: all of like their life experiences in the last few 594 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: years have been like you know, sort of like press release, 595 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: but you know, but like I like, I've been asked 596 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: three separate times to be like on a YouTube show 597 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: of their's on a different YouTube show in the last 598 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: I would say six months, and I'm like, wait, I 599 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: can't keep up with like how many things. Levado is 600 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 1: like starting what are you Jojo? See one now?

It's lovely 603 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: to to watch. So this is just this came out 604 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: three hours ago. On page six. Demi Levado believe something 605 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: is out there. The twenty nine year old pop star 606 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: claims they once had a close encounter with extraterrestrial beings 607 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: in Joshua Tree, California. A k that got really high 608 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: you did, and the out of this world experience was 609 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 1: mind plowing. Quote, we went out into the desert and 610 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 1: Joshua Tree, and I basically saw this blue orb that 611 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: was about fifty feet away, maybe less, and it was 612 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: kind of like floating above the ground, just like ten 613 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: or fifteen feet and it was kind of keeping its 614 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: distance from me. It was a beautiful and incredible experience. 615 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: And this anecdote came while they were promoting their new 616 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: Peacock series Unidentified with Demi Levado, in which they attempt 617 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: to uncover the truth about UFO phenomena alongside sister Dallas 618 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: Levado and best friend who we actually love and shout out, 619 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 1: Matthew's got Montgomery, so he's on the show. But this 620 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: is a real thing, Demi. Demi believes they saw an 621 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 1: alien and Joshua. I also don't want to insanuate that 622 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: they were high, because they're famously sober. What I mean 623 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: is of things when you're sober, that is true. But 624 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: a lot of things go down in Joshua Tree and 625 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: they're not necessarily aliens. That's all I have to say 626 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: that is that those elegantly said it was beautifully said. 627 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 1: You did not, Demi Levado, Demi Levado, just there, no right, 628 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: I did I Demi Levado, Demi Levado. But a second 629 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 1: ago where I was like, not everything is a press release, 630 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: I I take back what I said. I just feel 631 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: like there's just a lot of out there. There's just 632 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: there's just a lot of output. But I mean, Matt 633 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: and I have constant check ins being like, wait, dummy, 634 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: Demi Levado is the one. Demi Levado so constantly proves 635 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: themselves to be the one that it constantly provokes a conversation, 636 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 1: and this article says Demi. Levado went on to say, 637 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: I love that halfway through the article they're still they're 638 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 1: not saying Demi, They're saying Demi. Levados went on to 639 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 1: say that their encounter changed the way they see the world. 640 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: You have an inkling and then all of a sudden 641 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: that inkling is confirmed, the singer explained, It changes your 642 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: reality for sure. Oh wow, beautiful, unexplained, speaking of people 643 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 1: in the conversation, Well, we just we just I mean, 644 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 1: we just Matt and I just want to know what 645 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:16,720 Speaker 1: Dave you think of the latest in the Britney Spears saga. 646 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:22,240 Speaker 1: I have not yet seen the new documentary watched Okay, 647 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 1: what can you tell us? Basically, all the colors in 648 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 1: is the fact that this surveill it really like um 649 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: sort of focuses on the surveillance aspect of her conservatorship, 650 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: where basically it's revealed that she was basically never alone. 651 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: She was followed constantly. All of her conversations were monitored, 652 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: and if she was going to have a conversation or 653 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: an interaction with someone and had to be scheduled and 654 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 1: all of those were monitored. Basically she was watched one 655 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 1: percent of the time, like people protected. Yeah, like over yes, 656 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 1: maybe honestly she was. That was a little bit now, 657 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: that was before. But maybe it was a premonition that 658 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: she had was a premonition and unexplained. But that's really 659 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: what the documentary says is on top of everything you saw, 660 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 1: the surveillance, which was not covered in the documentary, um 661 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: as intently as everything else was really out of control. Yeah, okay, 662 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 1: I you know, UM, obviously I'm pleased that Brittany seems 663 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: to be on her way to being freed. Does seem 664 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: to be happening curiously quickly, though it seems like everything 665 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: was moving very slowly for a very long time, and 666 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if it was if like Jamie Spears, 667 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 1: it's just senses that the public tide has turned or whatever, 668 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 1: or if that's even meaningful to him, or if there 669 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: is something sneaky going on where it's just like you 670 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 1: don't want it, great, we're taking it away. And then 671 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 1: the first, like the moment she does something publicly kind 672 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: of questionable or whatever, it'll be like see, you know 673 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: what I mean, interesting? Interesting? You know, to that end, 674 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,919 Speaker 1: I don't because I don't. I don't think anyone's gonna 675 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: leave her alone. When she is able to like move 676 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:07,240 Speaker 1: about freely, that's that's gonna be. Like the last truly 677 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:11,359 Speaker 1: valuable paparazzi shot is her like out in the room, 678 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, which sucks talk about like 679 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 1: looking back at from one like those things and the 680 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 1: Woods Dot nine and and all that. It's like that 681 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 1: world which is like, you know, the world that I 682 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: was young in is like disgusting, disgusting, Like the way 683 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: that we spoke to her was disgusting. The you know, 684 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 1: the guy from the Offspring coming out and bludgeoning uh 685 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 1: the Backstreet Boys in effigy on stage in front of 686 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: tens of thousands of people is like that's discussed and 687 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: that ship is all tons better than the stuff that 688 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: I was a teenager during that, Like you know, all 689 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: of the every teen comedy in the eighties is like 690 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: ends with a crowd pleasing sexual assault, you know, like 691 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: that's it's just it's it's just wild to look back 692 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: at it now, and I can't help but feel a 693 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: little a little disgusting. Yeah, but sure, has it gotten 694 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 1: any better? I mean I feel like that just sounds 695 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 1: like like like I don't know, like attacking something in 696 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,839 Speaker 1: effigy feels very now to I don't know. I can't 697 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 1: think of an example that's I don't know. I just 698 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: I hear what you're saying bout and I think I 699 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,320 Speaker 1: often think that that that stuff happens privately now, and 700 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: it happens in like channels that we don't see, because again, 701 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: it happens on social media, and it happens so intensely 702 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 1: and so so severely that like we almost like it's 703 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: it is happening. It's just because it's like that mob 704 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: mentality of like that sort of fanatical like following of 705 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 1: someone that's famous, like that, all that all that energy 706 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 1: gets funneled into online now and so now it's like 707 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,480 Speaker 1: it's even scarier in a way because it can live 708 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 1: in a private place where only the attacked can see 709 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,439 Speaker 1: it oftentimes, or like it happens in a way where 710 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 1: only the attacked understands the volume with which it's coming 711 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 1: at them. So that's I think what makes it so 712 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: intense now. But I don't think it went away. I 713 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:16,240 Speaker 1: think it's interesting that you I think, and I agree 714 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: with you, that that would be that that getting that 715 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 1: PAPARAZZII shot of Brittany post freedom would be like the 716 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,839 Speaker 1: last valuable paparazzi photo, which makes me think, wow, has 717 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: anything fundamentally changed. She's still as vulnerable as she was, 718 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 1: you know, fifteen years ago or however long ago. And 719 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: it's like, I mean, obviously it's a better circumstance for 720 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 1: her not to be in this conservatorship. That's something that 721 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: everybody agrees. And I think and I feel like politically, 722 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 1: and I'm like, is it even that it's so obvious 723 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 1: that it's like, who would you be if not a contrarian? 724 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 1: If you were like, I actually think she should stay 725 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,960 Speaker 1: in the conservatorship. But I'm just saying, like the last 726 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 1: valuable paparazzi photo would be of Brittany out in the 727 00:38:55,880 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 1: wild and people would be like, wow, look she means yeah. 728 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 1: So that's interesting that you are a little suspicious of 729 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 1: at the pace of the yeah. And what's god, what's 730 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:10,759 Speaker 1: worse is like, you know, the paparazzi industry or whatever. 731 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: It's probably not what it once was. You don't see 732 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 1: them as often, um, but now everybody has a phone 733 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 1: in their camera and there are enough shitty people who 734 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 1: will be like, oh, there she is, I'll get the 735 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 1: shot or whatever, um we get Like I live in 736 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: Studio City in l A.

It's just wild. 740 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 1: Like what they will still hide out and hang out 741 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,399 Speaker 1: to get very sure but in like a gym want 742 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 1: age or whatever comes after. It's like, I mean, who 743 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: do at this point, I have been desensitized full and 744 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 1: I'm like I don't care whoever, Like I don't care 745 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 1: who it is, it's all, it's all just don't know. 746 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 1: I have had to um followed so many times, like 747 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: I keep out of curiosity following again and then I 748 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: then I just feel my stress level elevate. I feel 749 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,359 Speaker 1: my like I am half of the people. I don't 750 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 1: know who they are. It drives me nuts that everyone's 751 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: like a non please, it's like no one, they never 752 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 1: use your name, that you can go ahead and just 753 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 1: that can be silent. Now, Yeah, I'm currently not following Yes, yes, uh, 754 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: neither am I I don't know about I am following them, 755 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: but I just I just think it's like I'm not like, 756 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 1: I don't know, I feel the needs like defend why 757 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:44,359 Speaker 1: I'm following them, but I don't have to. Um, it's 758 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 1: just for me. Sometimes I'm fascinated by who they're featuring. Um. 759 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: Other times I'm just like, there is and look, I 760 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,279 Speaker 1: was just copped to this. There is a little part 761 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: of me that is that that little gay boy that 762 00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: was raised in the nineties and the early two thousands, 763 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,839 Speaker 1: who very much wanted to not be in my circumstance, 764 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 1: who looked up to people that were famous for better 765 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,800 Speaker 1: or worse, and um wanted to be part of that 766 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: world and was susceptible to that type of culture. And 767 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: I think that I'm not alone there. And I think 768 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: that if we're actually like gonna be honest about it. 769 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 1: A lot of us like who came of age during 770 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 1: the time that is being sort of reexamined now so 771 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,799 Speaker 1: much it feels like the media can't stop with four 772 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 1: women in particular, Britney Spears, Monica Lewinsky, Princess Diana, and 773 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 1: Whitney Houston. Now, these were all women who ended up 774 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 1: in tragic circumstances that were at the height of their 775 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 1: fame during the most vicious time in American media history, 776 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: and I think that like part of I think my 777 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 1: fascination now, and I think everyone's fascination with that time 778 00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 1: is because we can't believe our own complicity and because 779 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:59,320 Speaker 1: we can't believe our own um ability to be owned 780 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: by the celebrity tabloid culture as much as we were, 781 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 1: because it really was mainstream entertainment. And so I think that, 782 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: like when I watched like any pieces of media on 783 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 1: them now, it's just there's a little element of it 784 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,320 Speaker 1: which I think is funny, which is everyone being like 785 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 1: and can't you believe how horrible this was, And it's like, no, 786 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 1: we should all believe it because we were all fed 787 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 1: it and we all participated in it. So it's not 788 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 1: this thing where we like shake our finger and sneer 789 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: at whatever one entity like Jamie Spears or like whoever 790 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 1: it is, Like you know that that we're focusing on 791 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 1: is the villain or any of these pieces. We have 792 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 1: to look inward too, and how are we going to 793 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 1: change our behavior in going forward? And so like you know, 794 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,280 Speaker 1: you know, maybe it ends in me on following Dumois 795 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 1: and that's the way I do better. But you know, 796 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: we're all no one's perfect in this is this is 797 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 1: this the subtext behind American crime story Impeachment, which Matt 798 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: is watching very closely. I am watching, you know, I 799 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 1: am watching it. Um, I h it's it's definitely interesting. 800 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that it's taking obviously extremely sympathetic 801 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 1: um angle towards Monica, and I think that that is 802 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 1: both um in line with the times and also like 803 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 1: due to her involvement and as a producer. And I 804 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,040 Speaker 1: think it's pretty honest in terms of like how it happened. 805 00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 1: You know, he abused his power against her and she 806 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:30,439 Speaker 1: was a vulnerable kid, and it ended up much worse 807 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: for her than it did for him. And I'm reminded 808 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:34,759 Speaker 1: of you know, Bone and I going to Radio City 809 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 1: musical to see Tony Bennett and Lady got a few 810 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 1: months ago and he walked in the room and you 811 00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 1: got a standing ovation from everyone in there, and I'm like, 812 00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 1: you know, like not to say this everyone not everyone, um, 813 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 1: And I was like, I was like, oh, I'm a 814 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 1: little bit for sitting down for stings.

Is 910 00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 1: it that there's been this like twenty year cycle or 911 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:35,800 Speaker 1: twenty years sort of like m hmm, turnaround on it 912 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 1: where culturally we're interested in that specific time in like culture, 913 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 1: or is it that like they are the last sort 914 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 1: of still lag might whatever calcified thing in like an 915 00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:51,279 Speaker 1: intense scrutiny of like pop cultural figures that like they 916 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:54,239 Speaker 1: remained that they're the last we have, like they're the 917 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,440 Speaker 1: last thing that we remember being this um unified in 918 00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:02,840 Speaker 1: our lif Yeah. Yeah, I mean it's it is the 919 00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,320 Speaker 1: you know, it's the cycle, Like they're up in the 920 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,279 Speaker 1: cycle for sure. And then also yeah, I mean it 921 00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 1: that is there is nothing that we all know about 922 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,439 Speaker 1: now there not, but there's not a ton of god 923 00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 1: so fucking twenty years from now, it'll be you know, 924 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:21,680 Speaker 1: even it'll be weird. No, just the things that we're 925 00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 1: gonna be looking back on, you know, the Ryan Murphy 926 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 1: UH Prestige series of the UH in late twenties thirties 927 00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 1: about you know, the Trump years and all that. It's 928 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:35,839 Speaker 1: gonna be. It's gonna be. No, it's weird to see, 929 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:38,759 Speaker 1: like because there used to be like obsession with the nineties. Sure, 930 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 1: but I feel like something has happened in the last 931 00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 1: like five years where the nineties have truly become retro, 932 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 1: Like the nineties have truly become like another time it 933 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:51,360 Speaker 1: used to feel like like like the eighties were I 934 00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:53,960 Speaker 1: feel like we've officially moved on. Maybe we've literally moved 935 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 1: into a new decade. And so this is true, but 936 00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:59,240 Speaker 1: it feels retro now and like from a far away 937 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,920 Speaker 1: just at land for the first time ever. And I 938 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:04,120 Speaker 1: feel like that's why we're seeing so much content about it, 939 00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: because it's the first time that that all feels nostalgic. Maybe, 940 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 1: but it's not. It's not even nostalgia anymore. It's like, 941 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:13,000 Speaker 1: here's the underbell at which we have.

But um, as 982 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:24,800 Speaker 1: we talk about historic culture in our lives, should we 983 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 1: ask you the question? Yes we should, Matt, you asked, Okay, 984 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:40,440 Speaker 1: so Dave, yes, this is maybe, um, one of the 985 00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 1: most important questions you'll be asked. So this is the 986 00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,640 Speaker 1: cornerstone of our of our really let's just call it 987 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:49,880 Speaker 1: what it is podcast here, um and the sweet from 988 00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 1: which a mighty tree, very very much so. And so 989 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 1: that's see that question is what was the culture that 990 00:53:57,200 --> 00:54:00,320 Speaker 1: made you say culture was for you? So that that 991 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:05,239 Speaker 1: pop culture, that just general culture, whatever you can think 992 00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:07,360 Speaker 1: of that made Dave Holmes day at homes We'd love 993 00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 1: to hear that. I I think it was Annie. Yeah, yeah, 994 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:19,759 Speaker 1: one of the best songs ever, and it doesn't get 995 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 1: the credit. Oh no, it doesn't. Tomorrow gets all the 996 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 1: gets all the gets all the credit and then Little Girls. 997 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 1: But really, maybe is giving you something you could feel? 998 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:36,360 Speaker 1: M yeah, I um, uh that was what Year seven 999 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:40,440 Speaker 1: must be something like that that the movie, No, no, 1000 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 1: the the original the O b C.

Somehow 1019 00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 1: I eventually got to see it at the Muni in St. Louis. 1020 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 1: They do like uh an outdoor theater. Probably was a 1021 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 1: great production. I'm sure it was. Yeah.

Um, but yeah, 1106 01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 1: but I just and that's a pure that's the purest 1107 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:36,040 Speaker 1: connection you have. That's exactly what it is. Yeah, I mean, 1108 01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:40,880 Speaker 1: and there there was, Um, it was partially that spectacle 1109 01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:43,200 Speaker 1: was happening, but it was also partially that I was 1110 01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 1: seen in that way by my you know what I mean, 1111 01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:50,480 Speaker 1: Like it was, um, it was like, Okay, we're kind 1112 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:52,480 Speaker 1: of the person that you are a sort of starting 1113 01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:54,320 Speaker 1: to come together and this might be this might be 1114 01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:57,360 Speaker 1: a piece of the puzzle. And it was you know, um, 1115 01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:01,000 Speaker 1: and I around that time and seventies my oldest. But 1116 01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:04,600 Speaker 1: I have two older like brothers, much older, and the 1117 01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:07,520 Speaker 1: oldest of them went off to college in seventy nine 1118 01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:12,000 Speaker 1: and came back that Christmas with like the best records 1119 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:14,720 Speaker 1: of all time because it was you know, it was 1120 01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:17,919 Speaker 1: the clash and talking heads and television and like all 1121 01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:20,200 Speaker 1: of this stuff and like party mixtapes and whatever.

Like sometimes you're given something and 1131 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:51,800 Speaker 1: you are you kind of do force yourself to like 1132 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:54,000 Speaker 1: it whether or not you understand it. So I'm not 1133 01:01:54,040 --> 01:01:55,800 Speaker 1: gonna I don't need to speak for you, but as 1134 01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:57,640 Speaker 1: an eight year old, and you just said like you 1135 01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:00,600 Speaker 1: didn't fully under you couldn't fully comprehend what the clash was, 1136 01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 1: and you were like, well, this is someone someone I 1137 01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 1: looked up to likes it and is giving it to me, 1138 01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:07,240 Speaker 1: or is like letting is exposed it to me. It's 1139 01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:09,480 Speaker 1: not aware that I'm borrowing it when he's at work. 1140 01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:13,640 Speaker 1: But yes, like, was what was that am I projecting? 1141 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:15,160 Speaker 1: Where was that something you were doing? Like You're like, 1142 01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:17,560 Speaker 1: this is I'm told this is good, and therefore I 1143 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,120 Speaker 1: will force myself to like it. Yes, it definitely it 1144 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:22,840 Speaker 1: had a seal of approval. It was a thing to 1145 01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:27,120 Speaker 1: talk about with him, um, which you know, as a 1146 01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 1: little brother you're always looking for. Yeah, and it was 1147 01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:33,520 Speaker 1: like it was esoteric. You know that's actually yeah esoteric. Yeah, 1148 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:35,720 Speaker 1: the Clash is actually good. It's like like you were 1149 01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,280 Speaker 1: like wrong, right right right, And you know all of 1150 01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 1: this is very you know, it's everyone knows about it now, 1151 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:43,400 Speaker 1: but back then it was just it just felt like 1152 01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 1: this is this is from a different place, and I 1153 01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:49,760 Speaker 1: and I want to be in that different place. Um. 1154 01:02:50,120 --> 01:02:52,760 Speaker 1: Now that oldest brother like has a preset button for 1155 01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 1: Fox News in the car, which is a difficult thing 1156 01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:58,440 Speaker 1: to watch. That start of the risk you run when 1157 01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:01,480 Speaker 1: someone is showing you the Clash albums when you're a kid, 1158 01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:04,760 Speaker 1: as they could put on Fox News, you know what 1159 01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:07,560 Speaker 1: I mean. But but that is so interesting because because 1160 01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:10,640 Speaker 1: because just knowing you like, you don't get to become 1161 01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:14,240 Speaker 1: you don't get to just become this encyclopedic fount of 1162 01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:17,920 Speaker 1: knowledge about music and about all this stuff. So you 1163 01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:21,120 Speaker 1: had from a very early age a fixation on not 1164 01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 1: just music, but like music information, music history, um, music culture. 1165 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:30,920 Speaker 1: So because you were sort of being exposed by by 1166 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:33,160 Speaker 1: these records and that that that type of deal which 1167 01:03:33,160 --> 01:03:34,880 Speaker 1: is say yeah for sure, yeah, and and it was 1168 01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:37,920 Speaker 1: just it was like I can't impress on you enough, 1169 01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:40,000 Speaker 1: like how much. It was just like something to do, 1170 01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:43,440 Speaker 1: you know, something to be I was you know, I 1171 01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:47,480 Speaker 1: was always in small Catholic schools, right, and it's like 1172 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:50,840 Speaker 1: and you there aren't a whole lot of boxes to 1173 01:03:51,120 --> 01:03:54,240 Speaker 1: be in, right and uh. And so it was like, 1174 01:03:54,840 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 1: you know, I was fascinated by it anyway, but it 1175 01:03:56,920 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 1: also like immersing myself in it and knowing a lot 1176 01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:02,680 Speaker 1: of at it and whatever was like it became a thing, 1177 01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:05,680 Speaker 1: the thing that I did. There. There was like the 1178 01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:08,480 Speaker 1: toughest kid in our class in seventh grade, like the 1179 01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:12,280 Speaker 1: Matt Hugest like football playing kid. Um We're in the 1180 01:04:12,360 --> 01:04:14,360 Speaker 1: locker room and I had like probably had like a 1181 01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:17,480 Speaker 1: clash button on my jacket or something, and he looked 1182 01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:18,560 Speaker 1: at me and I didn't even know who knew. I 1183 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:20,160 Speaker 1: mean it was a small school. We all knew who 1184 01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:22,240 Speaker 1: each other was. But he he looked at me and 1185 01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:23,880 Speaker 1: he was like, you're a punk rock or aren't you? 1186 01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:29,840 Speaker 1: And I was like, yeah, was not, but like but 1187 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:32,680 Speaker 1: it was like if you think so, then yes, yes, 1188 01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:35,320 Speaker 1: I am like if that, if that like gives me 1189 01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 1: an identity in your eyes, then yes, it's really important 1190 01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:40,600 Speaker 1: at that time, you know what I mean, to have 1191 01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:43,960 Speaker 1: that thing that people can associate you with, so that 1192 01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:47,000 Speaker 1: they have a thing to associate you with, so that 1193 01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:50,080 Speaker 1: it was so and and hopefully it's not a bad thing, 1194 01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like I remember at that age, 1195 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:55,880 Speaker 1: like my older friends that were a little I didn't 1196 01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 1: have any older brothers or sisters. I made friends with 1197 01:04:58,440 --> 01:05:00,400 Speaker 1: older kids that were on the cross Kund three team 1198 01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:02,720 Speaker 1: with me, and they gave me a lot of music 1199 01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:05,080 Speaker 1: that they were listening to and it was like it 1200 01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:06,720 Speaker 1: was it was like I had to do homework to 1201 01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:08,200 Speaker 1: get to know it so that I could have a 1202 01:05:08,280 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 1: common language to speak with them outside of just you 1203 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 1: know whatever. But a lot of things I realized I 1204 01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:16,720 Speaker 1: really liked. I found through that, like you know what 1205 01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 1: I mean, Like it's yeah, I just remember, you know, 1206 01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 1: I would never have started listening to the Food Fighters 1207 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:25,800 Speaker 1: had had my older friends not said, like, you have 1208 01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 1: to listen to the food Fight food Fighters, I just 1209 01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:31,360 Speaker 1: wouldn't have. My natural inclination is to listen to Christina Aguilera. 1210 01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:33,800 Speaker 1: So it's like at that age, so it's just different, 1211 01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:36,000 Speaker 1: and it did. It varied me up a little bit 1212 01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:39,040 Speaker 1: because you just want something to you know, talk about 1213 01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 1: and like and be involved with, and then all of 1214 01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:42,360 Speaker 1: a sudden it turns out you like it and have 1215 01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:45,400 Speaker 1: a talent for it. In your case, Well, two things. One, 1216 01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:48,160 Speaker 1: did you say food fighters because you're still mad at oysters? No? 1217 01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:51,360 Speaker 1: Did I say food fighters? You want to know? I said, 1218 01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:53,880 Speaker 1: come on, don't do that.

And then you don't food fighters? I'm 1222 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 1: not sure, but I heard the most time he said 1223 01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:08,800 Speaker 1: food Well, we can run the tape back, but the 1224 01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:11,640 Speaker 1: most recent time he said food fighters, and I'm almost 1225 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:14,400 Speaker 1: positive there was new food fighters?

It was transparent, transparent. Um. 1230 01:06:28,120 --> 01:06:30,200 Speaker 1: The second thing, if I told you my Christina Aguilar story, 1231 01:06:30,280 --> 01:06:35,400 Speaker 1: no need to know, Okay, alright, and then we want 1232 01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:36,640 Speaker 1: to take it too t r L two.

I'll call out a child. 1377 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:25,200 Speaker 1: I am not afraid to put a child on blast 1378 01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:29,320 Speaker 1: their behavior when they were a child. I mean, going 1379 01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 1: through the trauma of early fame. We're all complicit in 1380 01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:34,760 Speaker 1: this when when like if we think about Brittany, we 1381 01:14:34,840 --> 01:14:39,200 Speaker 1: were all like mistreating this child anyway, But whatever, have 1382 01:14:39,400 --> 01:14:45,680 Speaker 1: they re cut the Madonna Brittany Christina performance from the 1383 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:50,560 Speaker 1: v M as like the original cutginal cut. Originally you 1384 01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:53,760 Speaker 1: didn't see Madonna kiss Christina because the camera was on 1385 01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:57,040 Speaker 1: just Justin. Now it's on him for like a split second, 1386 01:14:57,080 --> 01:14:59,400 Speaker 1: but you do catch the tail end of the kiss. 1387 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:02,000 Speaker 1: I have to say this, I remember when I was 1388 01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:06,280 Speaker 1: that age watching it that what happened was, I feel 1389 01:15:06,439 --> 01:15:13,880 Speaker 1: so good.

You're trying to get out 1424 01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:34,920 Speaker 1: of this one who need the guess on the podcast? Yeah, okay, um, 1425 01:17:36,880 --> 01:17:40,960 Speaker 1: I am waiting for her to be Madonna. I guess yeah, 1426 01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:43,840 Speaker 1: I am waiting for her to say, you catch up 1427 01:17:43,880 --> 01:17:47,439 Speaker 1: to me, right? You know what I mean? You're exactly right, 1428 01:17:47,680 --> 01:17:50,840 Speaker 1: That's what it is. I feel like she's chasing something 1429 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 1: and that is never a good look for anyone, especially her. 1430 01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:58,599 Speaker 1: I think that the industry in the world have has 1431 01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:01,920 Speaker 1: been as cruel and judgmental and critical to her as 1432 01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:04,439 Speaker 1: any of these women that we've mentioned, and she has 1433 01:18:04,520 --> 01:18:08,320 Speaker 1: had always through the decades, has had the attitude of 1434 01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:12,559 Speaker 1: I'm unbothered, and then eventually I think she just got 1435 01:18:12,680 --> 01:18:15,840 Speaker 1: worn down and now she just seems like she just 1436 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:19,120 Speaker 1: seems bothered and like she's she's trying to be something 1437 01:18:19,240 --> 01:18:25,280 Speaker 1: that maybe she thinks is going to be relevant or surprising. 1438 01:18:25,400 --> 01:18:30,200 Speaker 1: And I feel like you're right, she is instinctually intrinsically that. 1439 01:18:30,439 --> 01:18:33,160 Speaker 1: So you wish that she didn't get clouded by whatever 1440 01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:36,120 Speaker 1: she's clouded by, because she is the coolest bit. She 1441 01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:40,000 Speaker 1: is like Madonna. She is the only Madonna. But here's 1442 01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:44,280 Speaker 1: something something going on.

But that's 1772 01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:53,719 Speaker 1: but if you were driving the wrong way, you wouldn't 1773 01:38:53,720 --> 01:38:55,120 Speaker 1: be able to see it because it's on the it's 1774 01:38:55,160 --> 01:38:56,960 Speaker 1: on the front of this, so it's too distracting for 1775 01:38:57,040 --> 01:38:59,520 Speaker 1: the road.

That's the way 1779 01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:09,760 Speaker 1: that I don't know, but it's it's very bad. And 1780 01:39:09,800 --> 01:39:11,800 Speaker 1: then they just did a rewrite of it, but they 1781 01:39:11,880 --> 01:39:14,000 Speaker 1: kept them not wrong way.
