18
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 1: someone assembling a montage of my intro the first thing

19
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: I say, and it being identical. For some reason, I

20
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: want to ask him.

21
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:38,479
Speaker 3: Sorry.

22
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: So I've been adding weird inflection, weird cadence, weird other

23
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: words that our guest today will know better than me

24
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 1: because he was a linguistics major.

25
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 5: But I it's a concern, yeah, keep it fresh.

26
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, I'm also hanging out. My dad is

27
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: in town. I it's the reason I bought I've been

28
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: talking about this one man futon which I've been sleeping on.

29
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: My dad's in my bed. But we're having a great time.

30
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: But my dad is good. He's good at talking, and

31
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 1: so I'm more. I've been paying it holding a mirror

32
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: up to my own talking, because my dad is a

33
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: professional talker.

34
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 2: True, And what have you learned from from Jim?

35
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: He's just got He's just got it, you know, as

36
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: they used to say in the UH in the terrestrial

37
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 1: broadcast journalism business.

38
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 3: He's just got the goods.

39
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: He's got the goods, and he's meant for the airwaves.

40
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: And he needs to put those cans on his head

41
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: and scratch those ones and twos.

42
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 3: I don't know a lot of the terms, right, but

43
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 3: he's a radio he was a radio man.

44
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah, Well that's good.

45
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 5: You're absorbing. You're absorbing the dos and don'ts of Jim.

46
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's never too late to glean influence from

47
00:02:59,560 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: your father.

48
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 5: Is he like every morning when you see him? Is

49
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 5: he like good morning? Different every morning? And that's what

50
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 5: inspired you to try to change it up?

51
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 1: It's certainly. Yeah, it's so funny you bring that up

52
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: because when someone says good morning, it usually makes me flinch.

53
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: I don't like hearing good morning because it reminds me

54
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 1: of my mom vacuuming, or someone opening the shades while

55
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: you're hungover, Like, don't bring that good morning. Shit, it's

56
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: not even eleven.

57
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 2: It's always passive aggressive in your world. There's never a

58
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 2: positive good morning.

59
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 3: Yeah it is.

60
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: It's always an underhanded good morning. It's never like you know,

61
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: of fun good morning. So now my dad's been yet.

62
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,839
Speaker 1: He does wake up early, early to bed, early to rise,

63
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: and I think that's good. That has been possibly at

64
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: the top of the influence the last few.

65
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 5: Days, which also is very that's very radio DJ. If

66
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 5: he is the morning DJ. Yeah, it work at five

67
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 5: thirty am exactly.

68
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: He's preparing me for that eventual four am slot where

69
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: I talk about the roads before traffic even is a thought.

70
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 5: The traffic report is always everything's fine, you'll get there

71
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 5: on time.

72
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: It's clear because it's four.

73
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: Am and everyone's still in bed. So but one day

74
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: I'll get a better slot. But yeah, I got a

75
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 1: last minute spot at Largo, which makes me think of

76
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: you because we often talk about Flannagan and Uh, news flash,

77
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: he's the sweeter never and that's I did a show

78
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: with Brett Goldstein, who's on ted Lasso, and he it's

79
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,720
Speaker 1: so funny to see he's kind of a gruff, tough

80
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: guy on that show, and of course in real life

81
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: it's it's almost like a version. He's just not that

82
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: person at all. He's the sweetest and had really good jokes.

83
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 1: And my dad got to meet the Property Brothers backstage.

84
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 1: You know, yeah, it's exactly uh, And Wenny malk was

85
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: and I'm like, you look the same for someone that's

86
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: about my dad's and my dad got all excited. So

87
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: it was a cool uh like that's a kind of

88
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 1: thing you can't plan for your dad. I wouldn't get

89
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: that by bringing him to the Magic Castle.

90
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 2: No, not in the least.

91
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 5: But also, I'm gonna ask a question that I'm pretty

92
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 5: sure I know the answer to it.

93
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 2: But did you destroy?

94
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:20,200

123
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,280

00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 2: One is work on this.

132
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,840

133
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 5: one minute string out?

134
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:26,119

159
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 3: But good news is there's a new gnat in town.

160
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 2: Here's the thing.

161
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 5: It makes me feel like I have a banana peel

162
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 5: somewhere that I don't remember pushing aside as I was

163
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 5: doing something else, and now it is growing Larva.

164
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 4: Classic classic comedy, you know, the banana peel hidden somewhere

165
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 4: in the comedian's home.

166
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, now everyone knows you were not happy to see them.

167
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 3: I'm so happy to be here.

168
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 4: I love you both. I love listening. I truly if

169
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 4: I just listened the whole time. I mean, I'm just

170
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 4: like I guess I'm saying, like, listen, I would listen

171
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 4: to you.

172
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 3: I like your both.

173
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 4: It's funny that you, Chris are like, oh my dad

174
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 4: the professional talker. He says into a microphone that he's

175
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,559
Speaker 4: done for twenty years as well.

176
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: Also, yes, I guess I suppose much longer than he did.

177
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 3: Yeah. Also, I'll say this.

178
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 4: I when you said you had a I'm glad that

179
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 4: you had a wonderful set at Largo. What a wonderful

180
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 4: place to do comedy, and that you met those nice people,

181
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 4: and that your dad did as well. All fantastic. Also,

182
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 4: this is so this will be the least important thing

183
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 4: on some level, but just to look into my brain

184
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 4: that when you said that you had a soft set

185
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 4: at a barber shop, do you do anything like this? Now,

186
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 4: I'm going to introduce the concept to you of syllable twins.

187
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 4: So syllable twins, for example, could include Drew Barrymore and

188
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 4: Reese Witherspoon the same same syllabic structure ba but bah bah,

189
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 4: And so you know, like syllable twin could be you know,

190
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 4: like mulberry bush syllable twin and mulberry bush are syllable twins.

191
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 3: You came up with that quickly. Yes, my brain does these.

192
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 4: And so when you said soft set at a barber shop,

193
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 4: I heard it to the tune of fat Guy in

194
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,679
Speaker 4: a little coat from Tommy Boy.

195
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 3: Soft set at a barber shop. Yeah, yeah, of course

196
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 3: it is. I mean it's really weird. You can do

197
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 3: it without singing, you can.

198
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 4: And I know that from as you mentioned, my studies

199
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 4: of linguistics. I took a class called intro to Cognitive Science,

200
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 4: and we learned about priming, in which like, if somebody

201
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 4: says to you bug, you know, then your brain's neural

202
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 4: networks for all things related to bugs of any kind.

203
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 4: If you're talking about an insect, like the net that's

204
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 4: flying around like they're like, oh, net bug, and all

205
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 4: the related things pop up, even like then electronic equipment

206
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 4: like a spy bug, and then spy networks light up

207
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 4: and your brain thinks of those things quicker. And I

208
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 4: didn't even Rea, I didn't realize that my brain would

209
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 4: do it with just sounds, with just the shape the

210
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:33,319
Speaker 4: shape of words, without even the content, just the form alone,

211
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 4: without even the function.

212
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 3: Uh.

213
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: And so did you live in a constant state of

214
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: as if you're taking a test one of those tests

215
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 1: association tests.

216
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 4: Yes, I think that there is that is an undercurrent, uh,

217
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 4: you know, on the back burner, if not the front burner.

218
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 3: It's on It's on one of the burners.

219
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 5: But also I think it points to your musical talent

220
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 5: and ability, because that's one of my favorite things. Those songs,

221
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 5: the comedy songs you were doing. I don't know if

222
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 5: you still do them, but they were so good, Mike,

223
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 5: I mean truly, they were great.

224
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 3: Thank you so much.

225
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 4: It's it's really kind of you to say, especially as

226
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 4: someone as I know you also create comedy songs. And

227
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 4: I have a joke that I tell sometimes your songs

228
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 4: I love as well, And I sometimes tell this joke

229
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 4: about how when I see a musician because I my

230
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 4: parents were music teachers, and I studied violin from age

231
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 4: four and taught myself guitar in high school and came

232
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,959
Speaker 4: to comedy via music. I was writing comedy songs from

233
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 4: the get go, and I still create music for fun

234
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 4: and like during the lockdown phase of the pandemic, I

235
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 4: made a lot of songs, like for my girlfriend, and

236
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 4: I think my girlfriend like went out to visit her

237
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 4: mom for like two weeks at one point, and I

238
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 4: was like, I'm going to write a song a day,

239
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:51,319
Speaker 4: you know.

240
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna Oh.

241
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 4: I love writing, I love playing around I love recording,

242
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 4: so I have a bunch, like I've released some and

243
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 4: then I just have a lot of unreally least that

244
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 4: I'm like, these are fun for me and my friends,

245
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 4: but like if I was going to release them, i'd

246
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 4: make them sound better somehow.

247
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 3: But sure they're probably fine. But yeah.

248
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 4: So the joke that I tell sometimes is like when

249
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 4: I see a musician, not not even a comedy musician,

250
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,959
Speaker 4: but just a you know, a musician, a band and

251
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 4: art You're familiar with the ways that music can be

252
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 4: played by one or more people, and we call them

253
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 4: different things sometimes, be it a band or a singer songwriter.

254
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: I'm a joker joke writer and comes back to mine.

255
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, and so if I see beautiful music played live

256
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 4: and I can talk to the person after, I'll tell

257
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 4: them that was beautiful.

258
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,479
Speaker 3: And also I'm a musician.

259
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 4: So this compliment, please take it as more valuable than

260
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 4: just some schmo.

261
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 3: It's like, that was beautiful, but what do I know?

262
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 4: Like that was beautiful and I know all that really, Yeah.

263
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,559
Speaker 5: It has a little R in a circle at the

264
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 5: end of the compliment. It is a registered compliment.

265
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and that's it's not that that compliment paid

266
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 4: eight dollars to be verified. That compliment was verified, but

267
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 4: in the original ancient way by people your manager calling.

268
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 3: The head of Twitter whoever it was at the time.

269
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 3: But that yeah, that.

270
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 2: Sorry really quick.

271
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 3: No.

272
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 5: The blue check flip that happened on Twitter is still

273
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 5: one of the funniest things that's ever happened on Twitter,

274
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 5: Like it is so unbelievably. It was a cultural shift

275
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 5: that happened in like two days where everybody went, oh, okay,

276
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 5: well I lost my blue check, don't care, doesn't matter,

277
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 5: you're getting a blue check.

278
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 2: No one's paying for it. Literally, I think they said

279
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 2: eighty two people actually signed up for that.

280
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 5: Obviously tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of

281
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 5: people that belong to it, and then all the people

282
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 5: who did pay for it are now complaining about the

283
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 5: people not paying for it, as if that's something you

284
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 5: can argue and debate down into, like, oh, I guess

285
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 5: you're right, I have to buy it now. It's like no, no, no,

286
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 5: the cool people just said no, fuck off, and now

287
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 5: you're stuck with the blue check.

288
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: It is hilarious, right, So now even if because some

289
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: ran I'm just now seeing you're seeing in real time.

290
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: My reaction to mind being taken away and look still.

291
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 3: Exactly as happy as I was before.

292
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 2: It's meaningless.

293
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: But some people it's funny though, because there is a

294
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: part of me that I was happy when I saw

295
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: that I was verified at one point.

296
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 3: It is does have meeting.

297
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 2: That it did have meaning in twenty in twenty.

298
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: Twelve, back when I wanted it, and I'm like, how

299
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: do you get this? Who do I do? I have

300
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: to meet the right people. I'm starting to look like

301
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: I'm not professional. But now that it's gone, it would

302
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: be embarrassing if you still had it, because then everyone

303
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: knows you paid to buy into a popularity contest.

304
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 3: Sort of. Yeah.

305
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 4: It's like the famous quote by Jim Carrey and others

306
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 4: that I'll paraphrase poorly, Like he's like, I hope that

307
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 4: everyone gets, you know, all of their dreams met of

308
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 4: being rich and famous, so they can find out that

309
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 4: that's not it. Like that doesn't do it? Like you know,

310
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 4: before you have the verified check, uh, they're like, well,

311
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 4: who even am I? And then after you're like, oh, yeah,

312
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 4: still a good question. Who even am I? That I

313
00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 4: thought that this would be the thing, which is I

314
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 4: mean in I've been learning a lot about Buddhism from

315
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 4: Instagram and bumper stickers like you do that is that's

316
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 4: my joke.

317
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 3: I'm sorry to do a bit on you. It's for real.

318
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 4: I have a good One of my best friends is

319
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 4: a practicing Buddhist who I've been hanging out with and

320
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 4: learning with and from. Uh, And there's like meaningful stuff.

321
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 4: And you know, one of the one of the one

322
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 4: of your basics in Buddhism is that, uh, there is suffering,

323
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 4: the first noble truth. There is suffering, which sometimes gets

324
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 4: translated as discomfort, and it's like the discomfort of you know,

325
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,440
Speaker 4: the classic you're like, oh, yeah, this doesn't feel good,

326
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,479
Speaker 4: and knowing that we're going to get sick and age

327
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 4: and die.

328
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 3: That's that's not everyone's favorite.

329
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 4: But even the good things, you're like, oh, this feels

330
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 4: good and it's gonna go away probably at some point,

331
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 4: like even the yeah, the suffering of change they call

332
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,919
Speaker 4: it as well. Like he one time was my buddy

333
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,199
Speaker 4: was in like a there was like a pool and

334
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 4: a jacuzzi and he's like, I'm in the jacuzzi and

335
00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 4: it feels good. But then you get a little too

336
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:34,919
Speaker 4: hot and you're like, I don't like.

337
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 3: This dive into the cool water. Ah, that feels good.

338
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 4: Then this is actually a little cold. I'm gonna go

339
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 4: back into the jacuzzi. He's like, it's a miracle. I'm

340
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 4: not still there doing that over and over again.

341
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

342
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 4: We're constantly struggling to be like, what's the thing when

343
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 4: I get Oh, that's the horizon when I get there. Oh,

344
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 4: now there's another horizon. Great, Ah the blue check. Oh

345
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 4: not the blue check.

346
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: Uh.

347
00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

348
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 4: Anyway, my point is, thank you Karen for your kind

349
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 4: words about my music.

350
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:07,199
Speaker 3: It's the best.

351
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 2: I just think it's it's such a funny.

352
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 5: Somebody had a great tweet and I won't be able

353
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 5: to remember because now there's all these people I don't

354
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 5: follow that I'm constantly reading their tweets. But they said

355
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 5: something like, oh, yes, all of a sudden, the thing

356
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 5: that I thought I was supposed to want is the

357
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 5: exact thing I'm not supposed to want.

358
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 2: This is just like eighth grade. And I was like,

359
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 2: that's it. There's a real That's what Twitter is all about. Anyway.

360
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 5: It's about you show up at school. No one gives

361
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,479
Speaker 5: a shit that you're there. You're like, hey, they're supposed

362
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,919
Speaker 5: to care. I'm here because it's me. Then you for

363
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 5: four years post your thoughts, and then suddenly, slowly people go,

364
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 5: we do like that. You have these thoughts and it

365
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 5: builds up over a long period of time, and then

366
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 5: you get a little check and somehow that validates you.

367
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 5: And then this guy came in that's really bad at

368
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 5: tweets and really bad at being a human being and

369
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 5: really bad at giving a shit about other people. And

370
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 5: he's suddenly like, here's how we're gonna do it, you

371
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 5: legacy blue checks or assholes. And we're all like, yeah, okay,

372
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 5: that's true. Yes, actually fine, we're gonna take those away.

373
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 2: Go ahead. I don't think the fact that I cared

374
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 2: this much is embarrassing.

375
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I know.

376
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 2: And then it's like, now pay money, No way, dude,

377
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 2: not even if I had as much money as you

378
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 2: would I pay.

379
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 3: Everything is a roar shack, you know.

380
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,719
Speaker 4: It's like everything tells us something about ourselves. It's like

381
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 4: you ever have I don't know if this ever happened

382
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 4: in real life, but I have an imagination of like

383
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 4: everyone's like line up over here, here's the front of

384
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 4: the line. Everyone that way, and then they're like, actually

385
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 4: the front is the back, in the back is the front,

386
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 4: and you're like, wait a second.

387
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,959
Speaker 3: But I like stamp. I've stampeded over people like campel

388
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 3: people to be in that's the point.

389
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:48,439
Speaker 1: That's the thing. You know, airlines does that sometimes. You

390
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: don't know if there there are airlines where it's like, oh, look,

391
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna be at the very end, I'm seat

392
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 1: thirty five. Ah, surprised people are getting on an opposite order.

393
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 3: It's a y you don't know in the front of

394
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 3: the back. Also just they're it. I don't know who

395
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:05,399
Speaker 3: told me this.

396
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 4: But there's like experts in like I don't know the

397
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 4: ergonomics of airplanes that are like there's an actual way

398
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 4: that would be the fastest and most efficient to board

399
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 4: an airplane, and it involves, for example, everyone who has

400
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 4: a window seat get on first, the windows in the

401
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 4: back first. Sure not by row. Don't have ile people.

402
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 4: You have an ile person sitting before the window person. Sorry,

403
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 4: gotta get up, stand in the way. Do it like

404
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 4: it makes perfect sense. Just be like, oh yeah, the

405
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 4: final row window people, all the window people, any window

406
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 4: person gives.

407
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: The a reason they don't do it that way or

408
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: you just heard someone bring up capitalism.

409
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 2: I don't know they had the charge us all would

410
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 2: be a way to charge us.

411
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, we do this well and quickly it'll cost

412
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 5: you more money.

413
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, and there I did go on I feel as

414
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 4: like Virgin Airlines once and they were like, if you

415
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 4: can board, if you have whatever status right now, but

416
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 4: also if you don't have a carry on bag, if

417
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 4: you don't have an overhead, get get on at anytime,

418
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 4: and then rewarding people for you know, a thing that

419
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 4: would actually be practically helpful, right right.

420
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 2: That's smart.

421
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 1: Yeah.

422
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 5: I do like Virgin Airlines. Yeah, I mean, and they're

423
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,159
Speaker 5: sexy lighting and you know, a good opening video and stuff.

424
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it used to feel like getting into a Macintosh product.

425
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 3: It was blowing.

426
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: It was just like, am I part of an iPad hot?

427
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,719
Speaker 4: I mostly fly Delta since I learned in like twenty

428
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 4: ten that if you fly only one airline then it's

429
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 4: good sometimes that you know, you get bumped up. And

430
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,439
Speaker 4: then every once in a while when I'm on a

431
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 4: different one like Virgin, it's like a completely it's like

432
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 4: an alternate dimension and I'm like, oh the video at

433
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 4: the beginning, it's like a fun cartoon. I'm like, I

434
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 4: sometimes do feel tricked when I'm like, this is a

435
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 4: really cool song a commercial.

436
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 3: No, I enjoy a commercial. But I'm like, yeah, but it.

437
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,240
Speaker 4: Made me feel good, so I'll take it.

438
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:05,919
Speaker 5: Yeah.

439
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 1: Yeah. I downloaded on purpose the theme song to a

440
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 1: news program on the hill. I'm like, that is the

441
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 1: it's it sounds like John Tash and Tame and.

442
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 3: Paula got together to do the new epic.

443
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 1: News theme song. And I downloaded it and I listened

444
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: to it in my car. It's the funniest thing to

445
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 1: be listening to because it is newsy, but it's like

446
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,239
Speaker 1: it's my new Eye of the Tiger. Oh fucking love it.

447
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 3: That's a great song too. Here's a related topic.

448
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 4: I was like, I almost forgot, but oh good, I'm

449
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 4: gonna divert the whole conversation. Who hold on, that's being

450
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 4: a man in society. Let's talk about what I want

451
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 4: to talk about for a moment. I'm reminded during the pandemic,

452
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,120
Speaker 4: I started doing weed edibles more than I ever did before.

453
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 4: They I now understand what it does to me, Like

454
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 4: you know how they're like, oh, this one will put

455
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,359
Speaker 4: you to sleep, and this one will not do that.

456
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 4: I'm like, incorrect, They'll all do that. They'll all put

457
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 4: me to sleep.

458
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 3: But it's nice.

459
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,000
Speaker 4: I'm like, I used to try to do weed, like

460
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 4: in public with people, and like that doesn't do it.

461
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 3: No.

462
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 4: I'm like if I'm at home alone and sometimes I'll

463
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 4: just or with my girlfriend and sometimes we'll watch something

464
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 4: or just listen to music and I'll feel my body

465
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 4: and I'm like, that feels good. My girlfriend will be like,

466
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 4: you could probably just feel your body regular if you

467
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 4: just didn't do something for a little while, and I'm like,

468
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 4: we'll never know, but that's probably true. But every once

469
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 4: in a while, well, like they'll be I'll be like,

470
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 4: this is a really cool song and my girlfriend will

471
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,879
Speaker 4: be like, are you high because this is a commercial

472
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 4: from the eighties and there's a lot of synthesizers, and

473
00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 4: I'm like, yes, I am high, and this song is beautiful,

474
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 4: and I will stand by that.

475
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 2: That's what I was gonna say is those songs like

476
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 2: Chris's Auto Ze AutoZone Back.

477
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 5: And the Ford Tourist theme. We've sung it many times

478
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 5: on this podcast. There's a lot of those. It was

479
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 5: like a hard charging. It was back when people got

480
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,479
Speaker 5: paid decent amounts of money to do their job, so

481
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 5: that composer got to sit at home for say a

482
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 5: month and come up with the theme song of a

483
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 5: news show, so like they'd be like Action eight news

484
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,919
Speaker 5: Da Da Da Da da. And if there's an entire concept,

485
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 5: it's not just like a little jingle to lead you in,

486
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 5: because no one has the attention span anymore to watch

487
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 5: an entire package at the beginning of a news show.

488
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 5: But it used to be in the seventies and eighties

489
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 5: when the news started.

490
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 2: That was like this.

491
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 5: It was like almost like a weird op T shirt

492
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 5: come like animated, come to life, where it's like with

493
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 5: this amazing rock song behind it, and it's like there

494
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 5: was a good shit it got you through, you know,

495
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 5: through the news or through your shitty sunny de commercial

496
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 5: or whatever.

497
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 3: Music is so good. Yeah, I have two quick things.

498
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 4: Number One, In the past couple of years, I created

499
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 4: a couple jingles and I love doing it. One for

500
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,160
Speaker 4: my dad, who like started a new little business. And

501
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 4: then because of that one or actually I forget what

502
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 4: the one I made for my dad is. I have

503
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 4: it somewhere, but my dad's brother in law owns a

504
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,120
Speaker 4: car wash and my dad was like, do you want

505
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:30,439
Speaker 4: to make one for the car wash? And I'm like,

506
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 4: I'd love to make one for the car wash. So

Speaker 4: I have written together. I've written my own for mine,

524
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 4: and we've done at least a dozen for other people,

525
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 4: some of which are still in operation these days, and

526
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,199
Speaker 4: some of them which we made one that we really

527
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 4: loved for a show called does This Hold Up?

528
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 3: And they we gave it.

529
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 4: To them and they're using another one, and that's fine,

530
00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,360
Speaker 4: but we're like, we think that ours there, we think

531
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 4: ours is correct.

532
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:52,360
Speaker 3: But the point is we're available.

Speaker 4: I yes, you legally keep sing it?

536
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,360
Speaker 3: Oh top I Truly it's long enough ago.

537
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 4: Do you ever have you You must have songs that

538
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,880
Speaker 4: you've written that you don't remember how they go. I'm

539
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 4: sorry if I had to make it again right now.

540
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 4: Which this is kind of my impression of my previous girlfriend,

541
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 4: who was younger than I by approximately a decade like

542
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 4: I was. I'm forty four, and she is in her

543
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 4: early thirties, and so we dated uh at for a time.

544
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 4: And the joke I tell about her in this way is,

545
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 4: you know how like so we have different references for things,

546
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:37,880
Speaker 4: like you.

547
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 3: Know that song opposites attract. She didn't know that song.

548
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 4: So so I would ask her, like, you know that

549
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 4: song opposite attract, and she would start singing.

550
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 3: Opposite it's a track.

551
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 4: She'd just start making up a melody when she didn't

552
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 4: know it, And so that's what I would have to

553
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 4: do for Triangle.

554
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 3: Car wash, they get three things done.

555
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 1: You know that they might be Giants song. Yeah, that

556
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: could be Giant Triangle man.

557
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 3: Oh, you're one hundred percent right.

558
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 4: And I'll tell you the two artists slash groups that

559
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 4: were the most influential to me my favorites as a

560
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 4: teenager were the syllable twins of they might be Giants

561
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 4: and Annie DiFranco. Oh NONI yeah, wonder one hundred percent.

562
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: It was a small window, but there was a brief

563
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 1: period where everyone I knew was paying attention to Annie DiFranco.

564
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 3: I still pay attention her music so beautiful.

565
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I gotta re dive, dip my toes back in.

566
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: You gotta redive dip. Absolutely, I've did three things. That's

567
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 1: that's what I want.

568
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 4: That's not the only thing I love about you, Chris,

569
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 4: but I feel like I really resonate with you. I

570
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 4: feel a kin I think we've talked about this, the

571
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 4: kindred spirit of sometimes you don't say something, or we

572
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 4: sometimes we say something so quickly it might come out.

573
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 4: The joke I have and the truth of my girlfriend

574
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 4: and my's relationship, and the way that we are is

575
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 4: like I she thinks before she speaks, and I speak

576
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 4: before I think.

577
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 1: But sometimes when you nail it, you want to recreate it,

578
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 1: and so you lie and pretend you're doing it again.

579
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 1: You and I are.

580
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 3: Both do that. We do both one hundred percent.

581
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 4: But also every once in a while it really happens

582
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 4: a real beautiful mistake, that a crisis that turns into

583
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 4: an opportunity. As those two, as I understand in Chinese,

584
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 4: are the same word.

585
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: Like the first, the very first dump cake, the very

586
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: accident that.

587
00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 2: I have made.

588
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 5: So many people watch the dump Cakes infomercial that it's

589
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 5: one of the first things that comes up in my

590
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 5: search bar on YouTube because it's my favorite. Like I'm

591
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 5: always like, you don't know what dumb cakes are? And

592
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 5: people are like, I don't know what you're talking about,

593
00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 5: And then I start doing an impression of the lady

594
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 5: as if that's somehow gonna awaken some memory.

595
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 2: They yeah, like jes so to cant a sprite, And

596
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 2: the way everything is like it's her favorite fucking thing

597
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 2: that she can put soda into cake mix and then

598
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 2: make a dessert. It's just like, can you fucking believe

599
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 2: this shit.

600
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 5: I adore it so much in that it's a real

601
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 5: like can you imagine that if that was your mom?

602
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 2: Like every time you went into the kitchen.

603
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 5: She's like, get in there, I made a doctor pepper

604
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 5: cupcake and be like fuck, yes, I love you.

605
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 4: Oh, I mean absolutely, we all believe we would feel

606
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 4: that way, and if she were our mom, we'd be

607
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 4: like mom again.

608
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 1: Didn't it turn into the sale of dump cake specific

609
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: rings that you pour whatever you want into them?

610
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 3: Like, wasn't that like.

611
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: Sell cake cake molds and yeah, molds. I think that

612
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: was like, here's your dump cake kit that you can order.

613
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,720
Speaker 5: Yes, there probably was a thing you got and you

614
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 5: could add shit on. But then she went into dump dinners,

615
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 5: and I swear to god that infomercial where people they

616
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 5: can't believe dump cakes to begin with, and then when

617
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 5: she's like, and now.

618
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 2: We have something else to offer, it's just like her.

619
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 5: Dumping shit into a pan and acting like it's the best,

620
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 5: most wonderful, And at one part of the infomercial she's

621
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 5: talking about it like it's there's a kind of diet

622
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 5: element where it's a healthy dinner, and it's like, ma'am,

623
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 5: you just cracked open a can of like ministrant soup

624
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 5: and something else like no and corn bread or whatever.

625
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 2: It's like so crazy.

626
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 1: I want to see a version of it, Like I

627
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: always think of things where you can mash up editing

628
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: everything she's pouring in there.

629
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 3: It just goes to that scene and back to.

630
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 1: The future where it's he has the fusion thing where

631
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 1: he's just putting garbage into the He puts in there

632
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 1: whatever you want cigarette months.

633
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 4: If I may briefly, this is an idea that I

634
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 4: have for a new soup called Maxy Strony.

635
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 3: It's like Minuetrony but bigger.

636
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 4: I'd like to do an infomercial and real quick before

637
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 4: I forget.

638
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 3: It's way too late now.

639
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 4: But when you mentioned AutoZone, don't I wish I remembered

640
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 4: what comedian from Boston. I don't know if he still

641
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 4: does comedy, but year, like fifteen to twenty years ago,

642
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 4: there was a comedian in Boston. If any Boston comedy

643
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 4: comedian fan listeners, anyone knows this comedian, I'm just gonna

644
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 4: I think his name was Anthony or Tony, and I

645
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 4: don't remember his last name or even his first name.

646
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 4: But if I had to guess it's Anthony or Tony,

647
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 4: maybe both, maybe he.

648
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 3: Goes by both.

649
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 4: And he had a joke about the AutoZone commercial music,

650
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,239
Speaker 4: which just for if anyone needs a refresher.

651
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 6: Auto zone, get in the zone if you want it,

652
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 6: if you need it, just ask us and you'll get it.

653
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,720
Speaker 3: And then you wait, that's different than that's.

654
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 1: Get in the song at ze.

655
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I wonder so you don't know mine

656
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 3: at all?

657
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: No? Wow, Well yeah this is a maybe it's a classic.

658
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,680
Speaker 1: It's more involved, more lyrics.

659
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 3: This is fantastic to learn that there that there is

660
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 3: a difference.

661
00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 1: Wait, what's your O'Reilly auto parts?

662
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 3: Oh my god?

663
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 1: Can wis remember when I talked about I ran into

664
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 1: the live performance at a corporate event of the of

665
00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 1: the actual people that recorded the first uh O'Reilly O'Reilly

666
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 1: auto part?

667
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 3: Oh?

668
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 1: They someone said. I was at that event and they

669
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 1: were total asshole divas.

670
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 3: Like their rockstar.

671
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: I didn't ask to follow up much because it was

672
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,680
Speaker 1: just in my messages, but the idea of them having

673
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 1: like egos and throwing their weight around because they they

674
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: had the most popular regional jingle.

675
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 5: It was a good jingle, and I can see where

676
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,279
Speaker 5: you'd get a big head of that because you're just like.

677
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:18,240
Speaker 6: Oh oh oh, it's good stuff.

678
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 3: It is powerful. I don't even know if I know it,

679
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 3: but I love what you just did. Oh yeah, maybe

680
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:28,959
Speaker 3: that's but also you know what it's like. I don't

681
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 3: know if.

682
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,040
Speaker 2: Oh wait, you have to finish Anthony or Charney's jokes.

683
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,279
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, I'm so sorry. I will, I will one.

684
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,839
Speaker 4: But I do want to say briefly, the fact that

685
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 4: we now know that there are two different versions of

686
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 4: the AutoZone theme song. It's like it's like if you

687
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 4: grow up Jewish and you go to your synagogue and

688
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 4: you sing the songs the way that you know them,

689
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,759
Speaker 4: and then if you go to another synagogue and it's

690
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 4: like the same lyrics but slightly different or completely different,

691
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 4: and you're like, wait, I thought, but it's so weird.

692
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so.

693
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 3: Another alternate reality.

694
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, Andy, if I could put off Tony slashing

695
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 1: Anthony's of course, there's a time that I met I

696
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: made a new best friend, Ross Peterson in sixth grade,

697
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 1: and then after a year, I bumped into him at

698
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:24,399
Speaker 1: a family reunion because he was also my cousin. Yeah yeah, yeah,

699
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 1: what yeah, But now we're you guys closer.

700
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 3: Are you guys still cousins today?

701
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:32,240
Speaker 1: I mean not first cousins. I think are his uncle

702
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 1: and my mom are cousins. Anyway, it's henny. I didn't

703
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,839
Speaker 1: want to get too deal, Okay, it is.

704
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 2: I want to keep on putting off Anthony until the

705
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 2: very end of the.

706
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 1: Until it's too much expectations.

707
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 4: Cliffhanger, until next time. Also, I do I do I

708
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,279
Speaker 4: have enough? You know now, I'm an only child. I'm

709
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 4: an only grandchild, so I don't have any like first

710
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 4: cousins that are removed in some degree, like I have

711
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,880
Speaker 4: second cousins and I have some first cousins once removed.

712
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 4: I think I've I've figured it out every once in

713
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,200
Speaker 4: a while or people have told me, yeah, you've got them.

714
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 4: But I do think like, now, you know, my dad

715
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 4: remarried and there's like, you know, there's other family members

716
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 4: extended wise, and I'm like, oh is that my step

717
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 4: And I'm just like everybody's a cousin, just cousin, and

718
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 4: I just say cousin, Yeah, just say cousin. It doesn't matter,

719
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:29,520
Speaker 4: especially because other cultures and other languages don't even have

720
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 4: a one to one correspondence to our words, like their

721
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 4: word for cousin might include our word for uncle. Like

722
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 4: there might be like not a one to one matchup,

723
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 4: so like, yeah, just let's just say cousin for everything.

724
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 1: Sure, I think it is the most versatile of the

725
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 1: Can I admit something real quick as we please? I

726
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:54,000
Speaker 1: don't know.

727
00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 2: I'll admit one thing before this week.

728
00:36:56,239 --> 00:37:00,400
Speaker 1: I'm going to yeah, I had killed someone in October.

729
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 1: Oh sorry, Oh, I thought we were doing it right now.

730
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 1: I thought we were doing it now. I what I'm

731
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 1: admitting is I don't know what once or twice removed

732
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,239
Speaker 1: means or or death.

733
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 3: What's the removal? I know I always just nod twice removed. Oh. Interesting.

734
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 4: Now I'm going to number one. It's very brave of you.

735
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,959
Speaker 4: Thank you for your vulnerability. Also, I am not one

736
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 4: hundred percent on this, but this is what I think.

737
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 3: I think.

738
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm going to start telling you number one. Like,

739
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,760
Speaker 4: if let's say my dad has a brother, my uncle,

740
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 4: and if he had kids, that would be my first cousin.

741
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:41,280
Speaker 3: Uh.

742
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 4: And if that kid had a kid, then that would

743
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 4: either be my second cousin or I think that would

744
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 4: be my second cousin. But I think, uh am, I

745
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 4: my girlfriend is coming into report. I think it's that

746
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 4: I love.

747
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 2: I love outside input on this. I want. I want

748
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:00,800
Speaker 2: you to go get a neighbor. Yeah, have them tell.

749
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 4: You some Here's here's what I think it is. I

750
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 4: think from my actual life. My grandmother has a brother.

751
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:12,280
Speaker 4: He is my great uncle. His child is my mother's

752
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 4: first cousin, and that's my second cousin because he's or

753
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 4: that's my first cousin once removed. That's what I forget.

754
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,360
Speaker 4: I forget if he's my second. I think he's my

755
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 4: second cousin and his kid is my first cousin once removed,

756
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 4: same same level of generation his first cousin, but it's

757
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 4: removed because it's through my mom being cousins with his dad.

758
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 4: That's what I think the removal is. And I have

759
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 4: no idea if I'm read right.

760
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: And I'm no, I'm no closer to knowing. But I

761
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,360
Speaker 1: do appreciate. I think your did a no purpose. You

762
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 1: made me feel better by making it more confusing than

763
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 1: I even thought humanly possible.

764
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 5: There is confusing, though, this is just some fucking like

765
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 5: who would know this stuff besides an an ancestry dot

766
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 5: Com level expert, right, because I thought it was. But

767
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:03,919
Speaker 5: I'm we're talking about two different things because the once

768
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:04,680
Speaker 5: removed part.

769
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 2: I have no idea. I just know that my mom's

770
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,240
Speaker 2: cousin is my second cousin.

771
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,279
Speaker 4: Okay, if you know that that's true, I think you

772
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 4: might be right. Oh and we're getting a chat yeh

773
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 4: a chart in the chat A little chet chart, chat

774
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 4: job chat Okay, full on cousin chat chart.

775
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,840
Speaker 3: Hilarious, beautiful. Yes, I've seen this before.

776
00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 4: Yes, let's all look at the cousin chart morning, right, Okay,

777
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 4: while we're looking at the cousin chart, I will I

778
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 4: think this is appropriate to let you know. Also, the

779
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 4: thing that I'll admit is that for many years I

780
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 4: did not know what the term cliffhanger meant. For this reason,

781
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 4: you're familiar with a cliffhanger, example, on a TV show

782
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,560
Speaker 4: when it says to be continued, and you're like, ah,

783
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:07,160
Speaker 4: a cliffhanger, what happened to me?

784
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 3: You get it? You get I was watching one.

785
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:15,120
Speaker 4: Time the the old Batman series from the sixties, an

786
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 4: episode where at the end of it there was a

787
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 4: to be continued, a cliffhanger that I didn't know that

788
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 4: word at the time, and Robin was like, on you

789
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 4: know those contraptions that exist in shop class and villains

790
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 4: layers where it's like a rotating saw and.

791
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 3: A conveyor belt.

792
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 4: Conveyor belt heading towards rotating saw, perfect for building furniture

793
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 4: or murdering superheroes. And Robin is on this conveyor belt

794
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 4: heading towards the slow. If it takes the power too,

795
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 4: will Batman rescue Robin? And I point at the screen

796
00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:00,839
Speaker 4: because I want to know what the contract aption is called.

797
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 4: I'm like, what is that thing that's in all of

798
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 4: my cartoons? Like there must be a name for it.

799
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 4: And I'll give you a brief interlude another a cliffhanger

800
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 4: to the end of this cliffhanger story. Have you guys,

801
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 4: have y'all heard of a gava guy? Do you know

802
00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 4: what a gava guy is?

803
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:16,040
Speaker 2: Never heard of?

804
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 4: So a gava guy is a made up word, as

805
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 4: all words are made up, but it was made up

806
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 4: specifically for a linguistic experiment or like a thought experiment,

807
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,719
Speaker 4: to be like if you're learning a new language and

808
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:32,240
Speaker 4: somebody points at a rabbit like hopping across a field

809
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 4: and says, that's a gava guy. In my language, that's

810
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 4: a gava guy. It could mean that gavia guy means rabbit,

811
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 4: it could mean and tall, a small mammal, maybe a

812
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 4: puppy is a gava guy. Also maybe maybe any mammal,

813
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 4: maybe any animal that's You don't know how narrow or

814
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 4: how wide gava guy is until you have lots of

815
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 4: other examples. And so what happened to me is when

816
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,360
Speaker 4: I pointed at the screen and asked my mom, what's

817
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 4: that meaning? I wanted to to know what the contraption

818
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 4: is called. Right as to be continued appeared on the screen,

819
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:09,400
Speaker 4: my mom said, that's a cliffhanger. So for years I

820
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:13,640
Speaker 4: thought that was called a cliffhanger.

821
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,399
Speaker 2: Wow, So every time you went to the lumber mill

822
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,520
Speaker 2: and you saw it actually being used in real Yeah,

823
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 2: like another great, well maintained cliffhanger.

824
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, putting some raw oak through the old cliffhanger.

825
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:28,399
Speaker 6: Huh.

826
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,280
Speaker 1: Boys, they're like, what the hell's that kid talking about?

827
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 1: Why is there a kid here on the wood the

828
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 1: woodlaw and.

829
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 3: The wood floor they called the wood floor.

830
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, here's what here's going to be my confession. I

831
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 5: love so much that on Le's put this chart up

832
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 5: for us. I can't read charts.

833
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 3: My back started so long, and I.

834
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 2: Was like, I have more questions than I did before

835
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 2: we started that part of conversation.

836
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: It's a pyramid shape. There's colors. Also, it's like, oh,

837
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 1: this is like arows too much. It's like a game

838
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:01,400
Speaker 1: of high stakes.

839
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 2: Oh no, I can't do it looks kind of like

840
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 2: a board game. But he's here.

841
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 5: Will be my other confession, because this has been making

842
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:12,680
Speaker 5: me laugh. I this office that I'm in is also

843
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 5: there's a closet here that I put dresses in because

844
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 5: the guys who I bought this house from, their closets

845
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,800
Speaker 5: are for boys, not girls, so all of their stuff

846
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 5: is hung shirt level, not dressed.

847
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,560
Speaker 2: Oh wow, So if I put a dress.

848
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,320
Speaker 5: In my bedroom closet, half of it is on the ground.

849
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,239
Speaker 5: So I have to hang them in here. And so

850
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:35,640
Speaker 5: I am going on a trip. So I went in

851
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:37,960
Speaker 5: to find all of the kind of oh these are

852
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,319
Speaker 5: this would be good dresses to have on this trip.

853
00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 2: And I hung them on the little hooks that shut

854
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 2: the closet, and I hung like five on each side.

855
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:49,279
Speaker 5: Just so I could see what I had, see what

856
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 5: I'm working with. Whatever do I have enough? I left

857
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 5: the closet door open. About five different times. I have

858
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 5: scared the living shit out of myself because it looks

859
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 5: like a real tall in wearing black is in this

860
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 5: room hiding behind them.

861
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:06,799
Speaker 2: I don't know slender Man and yes.

862
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,120
Speaker 5: And the first time it happened, I was like, oh

863
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 5: my god, like that where it's like how would they

864
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:12,840
Speaker 5: have gotten in?

865
00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 2: Like the dogs would have barked, There's a million things.

866
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 5: But but then I didn't shut the door to get

867
00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:21,840
Speaker 5: it out of the door jam. So it just keeps happening,

868
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,399
Speaker 5: and it's like a bad movie where I'd come around

869
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:27,759
Speaker 5: the corner like oh there, And I've done it over

870
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 5: the past week. I think I've done it to myself

871
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:30,440
Speaker 5: five times.

872
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:33,200
Speaker 1: That's exactly what I did when I did that haunted

873
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:37,279
Speaker 1: mansion in Davenport. I thought that I was protecting myself

874
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:44,480
Speaker 1: by putting my belongings in the corners large.

875
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 3: That was a real fun place.

876
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 1: You've done that, Okay, so you've maybe been in this

877
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,400
Speaker 1: corner room where you look upon the very very scary

878
00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 1: ex asylum and very cuckoo's nasty place. But I put

879
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: a sweater on one hanger and my bag kind of

880
00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: in a chair over here, and then when I went

881
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:02,400
Speaker 1: to sleep, I'm like, that's a person. No, that's my smack,

882
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:04,800
Speaker 1: that's a little guy. Oh, that's my bag.

883
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 3: That's what ghosts.

884
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,960
Speaker 4: You got, haunted by the ghost of your past self

885
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:12,319
Speaker 4: setting up that thing that you it's always the thing

886
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,960
Speaker 4: that you think is going to protect you, that you know,

887
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 4: like you trap yourself in a like a suit of

888
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:20,719
Speaker 4: armor or imprison yourself in a wall. Yeah, so just

889
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 4: don't don't even don't try to preemptively strike.

890
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:28,040
Speaker 1: It's just a translucent dotted line outline billy version of

891
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:31,960
Speaker 1: me from family circus that is actually a ghost child

892
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,399
Speaker 1: of I think. I don't know, I got some weird

893
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:35,400
Speaker 1: family circuses.

894
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 3: Not me, Yeah, not me.

895
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 4: Also, I we don't have to spend too much time

896
00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:45,799
Speaker 4: on this, but I I have had an enlightening experience

897
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 4: with the cousin chart because be cousin. Did you think, Yes,

898
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:56,960
Speaker 4: here's here's the thing, here's the thing that.

899
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,160
Speaker 1: It is the cousin.

900
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 4: I'm gonna I'm gonna record it in my digital recorder

901
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 4: that I used to record jokes.

902
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 3: Be cousin. That is my new word.

903
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,520
Speaker 1: I know, I know you well enough to know that

904
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:17,800
Speaker 1: will soon be three or four minute bit has.

905
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:23,840
Speaker 4: So here's the thing that's cousin fusing about first cousin.

906
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 3: I'm fair enough.

907
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:34,239
Speaker 4: Splits. It's actually appropriate because on this chart. Here's the

908
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 4: here's why it's confusing, is there are two ways to

909
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 4: make a first cousin once removed. One way is the

910
00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:45,240
Speaker 4: child of your first cousin is your first cousin once removed.

911
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:49,320
Speaker 4: The other way is the parent of your second cousin

912
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:53,759
Speaker 4: is a first cousin once removed as well. So I

913
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 4: always thought I didn't have first cousins. My cousin Jonathan,

914
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 4: who is like my age and is you know, we

915
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:05,800
Speaker 4: we share our grandparents are siblings, so we are second cousins.

916
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 4: But his father is apparently my first cousin once removed.

917
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:13,920
Speaker 4: And that's all I just that's what I have to remember,

918
00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 4: is weirdly, my mom's first cousins are my first cousins

919
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,799
Speaker 4: once removed. And the end, I know it. I know

920
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:25,799
Speaker 4: it now and I'll never remember it again. But I'll

921
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 4: listen to this podcast and keep this. I'm gonna keep

922
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 4: this chart. I'm gonna send this chart to myself once

923
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,400
Speaker 4: at least a month, maybe once a year. Once I

924
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:38,200
Speaker 4: have it, I'm gonna this is this is important thing.

925
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 4: And I've seen the chart before. I've seen it before,

926
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:43,360
Speaker 4: but I'm like, I got it now. I just have

927
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 4: to remember that I never have it, and I just

928
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:47,399
Speaker 4: have to look at the chart.

929
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:49,919
Speaker 3: You will, I will.

930
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 2: It'll unlearnable.

931
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 3: It's impossible. Anyone who thinks they know it, they don't

932
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 3: know it. They are lying.

933
00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to continue ignoring it and know that.

934
00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:02,960
Speaker 1: I'll mean says I can only have sex with people

935
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:03,760
Speaker 1: from out of town.

936
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 3: That's how I play it safe. You don't have on

937
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:09,239
Speaker 3: the chart.

938
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:12,080
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, do you know I think it might be Iceland.

939
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 4: I think it's might be Iceland. I said it Ice,

940
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 4: the land of Ice. Yeah, of course, b Yorkland, New

941
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:24,160
Speaker 4: b York City, capital of Iceland. I believe it's there

942
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 4: or somewhere equally small. And because it's tight knit, I

943
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 4: think that they have like an app that like like

944
00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:36,520
Speaker 4: their dating apps, have an additional thing of like making

945
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:40,759
Speaker 4: checking ancestry to make sure because much it's much more

946
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 4: frequent that you'll run into somebody who you're related to.

947
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 1: And that's being careful. And now I feel bad for

948
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 1: making light or fun of that situation, because that's kind

949
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 1: of sweet, but they care.

950
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:55,800
Speaker 5: But I feel like Icelandic people have great senses of humor.

951
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 5: They're very hardy people. They don't give a shit. They're

952
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,359
Speaker 5: not dipse. Yeah that's not how they are.

953
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, they're more laid back then we give them credit.

954
00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:08,400
Speaker 1: Someone just watched the Equal Pay. I just have to

Speaker 1: going to bring my dad to. I've never been to

1003
00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 1: the tar Pits. There's so many things in Los Angeles

1004
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:19,799
Speaker 1: I've ignored for twenty years.

1005
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 5: I actually know a lot because my dad does like

1007
00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 5: good dad places because he's very picky and he only

1008
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 5: wants to do like he's very preference based. Can I

1009

Speaker 3: Yeah.

1013
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,600

1014
00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:48,879
Speaker 5: down right there on Wilshire. You're kind of like there's

1015
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 5: a nice spot. And then I think there's a Marie

1016

Speaker 5: Calendars if it hasn't closed.

1017

1030
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:35,520

1031
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:36,920
Speaker 4: still continuing.

1032
00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:38,640

Speaker 2: Asking God damn it. I saw that so long ago.

1052
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 5: It was like so long ago that he performed it

1053
00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:45,160
Speaker 5: on a show I was working on, and I was

1054
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 5: just like, what is fucking going on? I love that feeling.

1055
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,080
Speaker 5: I've gotten it A bunch of times as I've done

1056
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 5: comedy over the years, were like in the beginning when

1057
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 5: I started stand up comedy, it was like, I know

1058
00:53:57,640 --> 00:53:59,880
Speaker 5: all comedy and I've decided this is what it's like,

1059
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:01,680
Speaker 5: and I'm going to try to get to the top

1060
00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,319
Speaker 5: of what I think it's going to be. Like yeah,

1061
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 5: and then say ten years in, you're like, oh no,

1062
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:09,920
Speaker 5: now there's the new class and they're doing everything better,

1063
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:13,440
Speaker 5: and everything is like a little bit kind of refined

1064
00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:16,640
Speaker 5: and toned up, and more things are being considered because

1065
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:19,279
Speaker 5: everybody gets to improve off of.

1066
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:20,360
Speaker 2: The last class.

1067
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:22,160
Speaker 5: I like to call class like it's high school, but

1068
00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 5: I do it by decade, and I felt like by

1069
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,359
Speaker 5: the time I was watching people like Zac Sherwin or

1070
00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 5: the first time I saw Jared Logan do a set

1071
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:32,680
Speaker 5: and work the crowd like that kind of thing where

1072
00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:35,239
Speaker 5: I'm just like, oh, this is fucking next level in

1073
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 5: a way that I didn't like. I dropped, I was

1074
00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:41,759
Speaker 5: kicked out of college. I couldn't do this if I

1075
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:43,919
Speaker 5: wanted to. I had no idea what any of those

1076
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:47,040
Speaker 5: flags were. Like that idea of watching people and being like, oh,

1077
00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:52,160
Speaker 5: I love when the game gets fucking leveled up. It

1078
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:53,960
Speaker 5: was kind of overways.

1079
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 1: It's so awesome because I always have tried to play

1080
00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:58,920
Speaker 1: to that back of the room and it's been a priority.

1081
00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:01,919
Speaker 1: Be it a good or idea to make the comics laugh.

1082
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:04,319
Speaker 1: But if instead of laughing I heard the comics go

1083
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:05,800
Speaker 1: what the fuck?

1084
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:07,840
Speaker 3: That would feel so good.

1085
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:10,799
Speaker 1: If they're like kind of kind of upset that the

1086
00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:13,359
Speaker 1: it's a new thing, that would feel so good.

1087
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:15,160
Speaker 3: Chris, What you could do?

1088
00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 4: You don't have to do this, but all you could

1089
00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 4: do if you want to really entertain the back of

1090
00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,080
Speaker 4: the room, just you go to the back of the

1091
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 4: room and then tell the audience that now the front

1092
00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:28,760
Speaker 4: of the room is the back of the room.

1093
00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:29,560
Speaker 3: Exactly?

1094
00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:35,320
Speaker 4: Can I tell you one more? Zach Sherwin fun musical fact.

1095
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:39,160
Speaker 4: There is a song that he wrote that I think

1096
00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:43,239
Speaker 4: I know in full more than he does. Like we've

1097
00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:45,840
Speaker 4: talked about, there's some songs that I've written that I've forgotten.

1098
00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 4: This is not in his regular rotation, like he might

1099
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:50,480
Speaker 4: have recorded it but not released it.

1100
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:53,359
Speaker 1: I know, Yes, I know some Henry Phillips songs better

1101
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:54,240
Speaker 1: than Henry Phillips.

1102
00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:55,279
Speaker 2: Yes. Yeah.

1103
00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:57,600
Speaker 4: And this song, I'll just tell you the concept of

1104
00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 4: the song and a couple of the lyrics. It was

1105
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:03,920
Speaker 4: when Eminem came out with a new album and Zach

1106
00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:06,680
Speaker 4: and we listened to it. I remember having a conversation

1107
00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 4: and Zach just came up with this this description of

1108
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:12,919
Speaker 4: what Eminem was doing, which is like he's rhyming. He's

1109
00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:15,520
Speaker 4: so good at rhyming. He's not only rhyming things that

1110
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:19,600
Speaker 4: do rhyme, he's rhyming things that don't rhyme. For example,

1111
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:23,800
Speaker 4: there's like a he rhymes in one song, I'll lose

1112
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:30,800
Speaker 4: my shit with toolboxes and screw drivers, and like screwdrivers

1113
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:33,399
Speaker 4: and toolboxes and lose my shit.

1114
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 3: None of them rhymes, but he makes them rhyme.

1115
00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:38,200
Speaker 1: Yea.

1116
00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:41,160
Speaker 4: And then Zach introduces the concept of he learned about

1117
00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:44,960
Speaker 4: a thing called a Twinkie burger, which apparently some company

1118
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:48,799
Speaker 4: found this thing where they like flash fry and like

1119
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:52,360
Speaker 4: smashed down Twinkies as the bun, and then there's a

1120
00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 4: burger and cheese and bacon.

1121
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 3: We're both upset by this and it seems.

1122
00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 4: Like yeah, and so it seems like it shouldn't work,

1123
00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:04,040
Speaker 4: and so Zach is like, what Eminem is doing is

1124
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:09,760
Speaker 4: like creating these lyrical twinkieburgers, and then he the song

1125
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 4: everything rhymes with the word twinkieburger, and it's it. I'll

1126
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 4: just if I may the first couple lyrics, he says,

1127
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:21,840
Speaker 4: let me kick a rhyme like a twin key burger.

1128
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:24,240
Speaker 4: By the time I'm done, you're gonna think.

1129
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:25,960
Speaker 3: Keys burger lyric lee.

1130
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 4: It's like sponge cake buns, applewood, bacon, beef, Patty's in

1131
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 4: cheese were merged. I'm cooking this up, but I'm out

1132
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:37,120
Speaker 4: of my tree, opposite of how the freakin' keeblers work.

1133
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:38,960
Speaker 3: And it just keeps going.

1134
00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:43,560
Speaker 4: It's it's like, it's one of my favorite things in

1135
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:45,560
Speaker 4: like one of my favorite songs by one of my

1136
00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:47,640
Speaker 4: favorite people, and it's just like one of my favorite

1137
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:52,760
Speaker 4: artistic experiences. Like it's like because yeah, like you were saying, Karen, Like,

1138
00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,000
Speaker 4: when you start, you see what other people have done,

1139
00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:58,240
Speaker 4: and you're like, oh, can I do my version of

1140
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:01,720
Speaker 4: what they're doing, or maybe even my own? Can I

1141
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 4: invent my own genre? Can I be my own flavor?

1142
00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:08,200
Speaker 4: Am I creating a brand new instrument and a whole

1143
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:10,919
Speaker 4: new sound? And then when you hear other people doing

1144
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:13,960
Speaker 4: and you're like, but how did Yeah, I didn't even know.

1145
00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:15,440
Speaker 3: Did you know we could do that?

1146
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:20,520
Speaker 4: I mean, we can't excuse me, teacher, this is this

1147
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 4: was not the assignment. They're doing better than.

1148
00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:28,440
Speaker 5: Us, They're doing so much better. But also I just

1149
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 5: recently saw TikTok about how like kind of hyper pattern

1150
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:38,240
Speaker 5: recognition is a coping mechanism of children who are like

1151
00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:41,560
Speaker 5: in certain situations whatever. It's not always like bad, but

1152
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:45,040
Speaker 5: it's just a thing that kids develop when maybe their

1153
00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:49,640
Speaker 5: needs aren't met in specific ways. So becoming highly attuned

1154
00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:52,400
Speaker 5: to patterns is how you get them met, or is

1155
00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 5: how you figure it out. And I saw that TikTok

1156
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,200
Speaker 5: like four days ago, and all I can think about was.

1157
00:58:58,240 --> 00:58:59,840
Speaker 2: Like, that's all of comedy.

1158
00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:02,920
Speaker 5: That's all of comedy because it's this kind of like

1159
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:08,160
Speaker 5: whether the pattern is a sarcasm or the pattern is metaphor,

1160
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:11,960
Speaker 5: or the pattern is do you like rap? I'm going

1161
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:14,520
Speaker 5: to comedy rap. You're going to recognize what I'm doing,

1162
00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:15,919
Speaker 5: and I'm going to make you laugh.

1163
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:18,479
Speaker 2: I'm going to combine it like I'm going to blow

1164
00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:18,919
Speaker 2: your mind.

1165
00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:22,080
Speaker 5: All of that is just more and more heightened pattern

1166
00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:26,160
Speaker 5: recognition and like the appreciation of it. It's just I

1167
00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:27,840
Speaker 5: don't know, I love it and I love it.

1168
00:59:27,920 --> 00:59:32,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I mean even more broadly than comedy. I mean,

1169
00:59:32,280 --> 00:59:35,360
Speaker 4: of course, it is exactly what's happening in comedy and

1170
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:38,640
Speaker 4: music and art and also in just humanity.

1171
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 3: We are all, you know, meaning.

1172
00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 4: Seekers like pattern like we need. If you don't recognize patterns,

1173
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,160
Speaker 4: then you may die from the thing that killed your

1174
00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:51,840
Speaker 4: friend that you didn't you're like, oh, that thing poisoned him.

1175
00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:54,800
Speaker 3: But it's probably fine for me, yeah, mutually for me.

1176
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:59,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I will eat this tiger, you know, Oh no,

1177
00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:00,680
Speaker 4: the tiger will eat Okay.

1178
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:04,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I see a pattern forming.

1179
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:07,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, fascinating, fascinating.

1180
01:00:07,640 --> 01:00:10,840
Speaker 1: I didn't know you were. And it, of course almost

1181
01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:14,600
Speaker 1: comedically makes sense that you have a master's in linguistics,

1182
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:20,320
Speaker 1: and there's something that a linguist linguistics person told me

1183
01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:23,240
Speaker 1: once that I've always repeated, and I don't even know

1184
01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:26,080
Speaker 1: if there's any truth to it. But I'm from the

1185
01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:29,720
Speaker 1: you know, kind of Pacific. I'm from Montana, so it's

1186
01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:32,800
Speaker 1: not even Pacific Northwest, but I would say I'm close.

1187
01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:35,760
Speaker 1: I'm next to that panhandle of Idaho. He told me

1188
01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:37,919
Speaker 1: that that part of the country is the only part

1189
01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:40,800
Speaker 1: of the US where there is no accent. Is that

1190
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:43,240
Speaker 1: something that person made up? Or can you give that

1191
01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:44,080
Speaker 1: any validity?

1192
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 5: And the be part of that question is what's the

1193
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:50,479
Speaker 5: Craig and Auto Parts theme song in that.

1194
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:51,280
Speaker 2: Part of the country?

1195
01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 1: Yes, all leaning up to Tony's joke coming up?

1196
01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:00,960
Speaker 4: Of course I will here, I'll say a few different

1197
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:03,560
Speaker 4: things that will dance around the answer to your question.

1198
01:01:03,600 --> 01:01:07,760
Speaker 3: I'll give you the answer to your question is he

1199
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:09,960
Speaker 3: hasn't done it.

1200
01:01:09,960 --> 01:01:14,160
Speaker 1: It gets me excited when that happens. That I appreciate it.

1201
01:01:14,360 --> 01:01:21,720
Speaker 4: So newscasters are like famously historically have trained themselves to

1202
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:27,360
Speaker 4: speak with as it's weird to say, like without an accent,

1203
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:31,200
Speaker 4: or with as little you know, discernible accent. But here's

1204
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:33,720
Speaker 4: the thing is, of course, like to a British person,

1205
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:38,160
Speaker 4: everyone in the United States has an accent. They speak English.

1206
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:42,160
Speaker 4: We speak English. It's it's a matter of relativity, like

1207
01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 4: in the United States, Like I mean, I would say

1208
01:01:44,680 --> 01:01:48,160
Speaker 4: the simplest thing, the simplest answer is there is no

1209
01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,120
Speaker 4: one who does not have an accent, because it's like

1210
01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:54,000
Speaker 4: it's like pointing to one person and saying, is that

1211
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:57,920
Speaker 4: person taller? Or is there someone who isn't taller? And

1212
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:02,040
Speaker 4: you're like compared to what, but for whom? Like But

1213
01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:05,520
Speaker 4: then there is this weird thing of the newscaster, like

1214
01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:10,040
Speaker 4: who is striving to be as universally accessible so that

1215
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:14,680
Speaker 4: everyone who might be listening could listen and think like, oh, yeah,

1216
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:20,160
Speaker 4: that's not I don't hear anything super anomalists to my voice.

1217
01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:23,040
Speaker 4: Like you know, clearly most people don't speak like a newscaster.

1218
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:25,520
Speaker 4: But it's like those things you ever see like in

1219
01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:27,760
Speaker 4: a in a I don't know, a highlights magazine or something,

1220
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:30,600
Speaker 4: or like a games magazine where it's like nine faces

1221
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:33,439
Speaker 4: and they're like they all have some of the same

1222
01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:36,560
Speaker 4: features and some different features, right, and be like which

1223
01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:40,600
Speaker 4: face has the most features in common with all of

1224
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:44,240
Speaker 4: the other ones, and like that one is like newscaster voice.

1225
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:47,240
Speaker 4: And so maybe there is some part of the country

1226
01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:53,520
Speaker 4: that does have that version of like fewest anomalies compared

1227
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 4: to all other parts that do exist. But it's it's

1228
01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:02,000
Speaker 4: absolutely it can't be like a in stone absolute because

1229
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:03,800
Speaker 4: language is always shifting.

1230
01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:06,640
Speaker 1: And any as someone from Louisiana, I'm going to have

1231
01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:09,520
Speaker 1: as as strong of an accent as they do to me.

1232
01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:13,160
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you're you know you definitely depends on you.

1233
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:16,440
Speaker 3: You have an accent you sure, yeah.

1234
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:19,880
Speaker 1: That's people. But the confusing thing is I've been asked

1235
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:22,280
Speaker 1: if I'm from Canada, but I've also been asked if

1236
01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:25,800
Speaker 1: I'm from Philadelphia specifically, so I don't. It's like, well,

1237
01:03:25,800 --> 01:03:27,400
Speaker 1: where's the logic in that I don't.

1238
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, everyone out there just ask him where are you from?

1239
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,400
Speaker 3: If you want, you know, don't have rather than yes,

1240
01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:34,520
Speaker 3: you don't have to guess.

1241
01:03:35,160 --> 01:03:37,640
Speaker 5: You don't have to pin people down conversationally.

1242
01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:38,240
Speaker 3: It's weird.

1243
01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:39,960
Speaker 1: I know, I know it's weird.

1244
01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:41,520
Speaker 3: It's just interesting to me.

1245
01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:44,959
Speaker 4: I guess this is geographic linguistic astrology.

1246
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:46,960
Speaker 3: You don't have to do it. Yeah, yeah, you're.

1247
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:50,240
Speaker 1: It's it's teetering on the edge of an unhealthy thing

1248
01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:53,800
Speaker 1: to even care about. I think, Yeah, so I've decided

1249
01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:54,760
Speaker 1: I don't care anymore.

1250
01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:58,800
Speaker 5: And with that, I think that you need to re

1251
01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:02,640
Speaker 5: sing the East Coast Craig and Auto Parts theme and

1252
01:04:02,840 --> 01:04:06,080
Speaker 5: tell us and yes, oh if you have anything to

1253
01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:08,040
Speaker 5: plug before you do this, and this can be the

1254
01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:09,080
Speaker 5: final button.

1255
01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:11,080
Speaker 3: If we do it that way, I'd love to do it.

1256
01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:15,320
Speaker 4: And so yes, in conclusion, the AutoZone theme and joke

1257
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:21,360
Speaker 4: by Anthony slash Tony someone Anthony and before that, yes,

1258
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,720
Speaker 4: Mike Caplan is my name, and it's spelled weird compared

1259
01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 4: to many people who spell their names differently. Maybe you're

1260
01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:33,360
Speaker 4: all weird. Maybe everyone's weird except for me. So Mike Kaplan,

01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:56,000
Speaker 4: are the plugs.

01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:58,400
Speaker 3: And now, with only.

1308
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:02,960
Speaker 4: A little more further ado Anthony's I'll start it over

1309
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,400
Speaker 4: just to give you to let you know. This is

1310
01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 4: this the way that the song goes on the East Coast,

1311
01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:11,720
Speaker 4: and he sings it. He's like AutoZone, get in the zone.

1312
01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:14,880
Speaker 6: If you want it, if you need it, just ask

1313
01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:16,520
Speaker 6: us and we'll get it.

1314
01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:19,720
Speaker 4: And then he says, yeah, that's how most businesses work.

1315
01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:22,760
Speaker 4: If you ask them for something, then they'll get it

1316
01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:26,480
Speaker 4: for you. And then he imagines, I forget the exact phrasing,

1317
01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:28,960
Speaker 4: but he then sets up like this could be their

1318
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:31,920
Speaker 4: theme song. If you want it, if you need it,

1319
01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:34,760
Speaker 4: just ask us, but I'm on my break now, so

1320
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:37,080
Speaker 4: talk to another guy. Or then he'll be like, actually,

1321
01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:39,080
Speaker 4: we don't have that in stock right now, call the

1322
01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:40,960
Speaker 4: other store. Maybe I'm gonna be I'll be back for

1323
01:07:41,040 --> 01:07:43,520
Speaker 4: my smoking break in fifteen minutes. I'll try to help you,

1324
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:45,760
Speaker 4: but maybe just look around a little further. Maybe we've

1325
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:47,280
Speaker 4: got some in the back or a little high up

1326
01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:49,400
Speaker 4: on a different shell. He just keeps going as long

1327
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:52,640
Speaker 4: as he wants to, and it's AutoZone.

1328
01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:54,280
Speaker 3: Get it in the zone.

1329
01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:58,160
