WEBVTT - Our Conversation with Sarah Jessica Parker Continues... 

0:00:01.600 --> 0:00:04.880
<v Speaker 1>Hi, I'm Kristin Davis, and I want to know are

0:00:04.880 --> 0:00:07.920
<v Speaker 1>you a Charlotte? Hi?

0:00:08.000 --> 0:00:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Everybody, welcome to Are You a Charlotte? We had so

0:00:12.280 --> 0:00:15.320
<v Speaker 2>much to discuss with Sarah Jessica that we have another

0:00:15.440 --> 0:00:20.479
<v Speaker 2>episode all just thoughts, random thoughts with Sarah Jessica. The

0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:22.520
<v Speaker 2>thing that I want to say to now is that

0:00:22.560 --> 0:00:27.480
<v Speaker 2>I do feel that female friendship is so much more

0:00:27.680 --> 0:00:31.319
<v Speaker 2>valued and talked about and discussed now, And I love

0:00:31.360 --> 0:00:33.400
<v Speaker 2>that so much because I do feel like it's just

0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:37.040
<v Speaker 2>incredibly important and it used to be a time where

0:00:37.440 --> 0:00:40.559
<v Speaker 2>somehow it wasn't discussed or you know, there were all

0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:42.839
<v Speaker 2>these soap operas where the women were fighting each other,

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:44.839
<v Speaker 2>and that was always something that was very key to

0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:50.240
<v Speaker 2>our DNA was that that was not going to happen

0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:52.080
<v Speaker 2>on our show. We were never going to fight over

0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:53.400
<v Speaker 2>a man. Do you remember? That was one of the

0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 2>few notes that came from HBO over a kind of

0:00:56.400 --> 0:00:58.840
<v Speaker 2>very minor story point between you and Miranda that one

0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:00.760
<v Speaker 2>time where she wanted to date that you had dated,

0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:01.319
<v Speaker 2>and you.

0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Were like, yeah, sure, okay, you know what I mean,

0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:03.760
<v Speaker 1>Like it was.

0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:06.200
<v Speaker 2>It was a different we were going to be completely

0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:08.640
<v Speaker 2>different in that way. And then eventually we get to

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:10.800
<v Speaker 2>that beautiful scene on the stoop where I say, you know,

0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:13.480
<v Speaker 2>maybe wore each other's soulmates, which I remember was just

0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:15.760
<v Speaker 2>a beautiful scene in the middle of the night on

0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:18.800
<v Speaker 2>that certain street that I think I'm still not supposed

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 2>to mention.

0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Are I don't know what. Yeah we got yeah we

0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:26.760
<v Speaker 1>got some trouble. But you know, so confused the special

0:01:26.760 --> 0:01:31.440
<v Speaker 1>students on your daily path. Just go to the second left.

0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Just trust me, it's the second left. There you go.

0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:36.800
<v Speaker 1>But you know what else I want to ask you?

0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:39.319
<v Speaker 2>But I mean, I'm going to have to mold this

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:40.960
<v Speaker 2>over what you're telling me now, and I'm going to

0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:42.800
<v Speaker 2>have to really think about it from this person food

0:01:42.840 --> 0:01:45.480
<v Speaker 2>for thought. I know, I think for me right because

0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:48.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm over here, right like you're there and I'm over here, and.

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:54.400
<v Speaker 1>You had to play cares I'm up here. No, no, no, no,

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:58.480
<v Speaker 1>we're sitting there in our housewife quote apparently, I don't know, yeah,

0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:01.840
<v Speaker 1>famous house it was housewife. It just makes me laugh.

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Yes, somebody said I'm up here and

0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:12.160
<v Speaker 1>you're down here. Really you're saying, oh, you're over there,

0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:13.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, we're in our own bubbles.

0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:15.959
<v Speaker 2>Someone the other day told me that they think that

0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:21.800
<v Speaker 2>that the Housewife you know, uh franchise, mega franchise that

0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:23.000
<v Speaker 2>our friend Andy.

0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:26.280
<v Speaker 1>Created was inspired by us. And I was like, what,

0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:29.639
<v Speaker 1>I've never seen it, so I didn't know what to say.

0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:33.360
<v Speaker 2>That she meant as a compliment. Yes, you know, Andy's

0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:35.799
<v Speaker 2>just a genius and came up on his own.

0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:40.959
<v Speaker 1>I believe. But anyway, and I forget. Oh, I know

0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:43.480
<v Speaker 1>it was good. Are you kidding? You said the driver

0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:47.440
<v Speaker 1>hare cast. Yes, because so one thing, when I'm looking.

0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:50.360
<v Speaker 2>Back on the show right and rewatching, which is so incredible,

0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:53.560
<v Speaker 2>I was in my own, you know, somewhat of a

0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:56.960
<v Speaker 2>tizzy right like the first beginning, especially because I'm in La.

0:02:57.080 --> 0:02:59.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm coming back. I have my golden Remember, I would

0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:01.760
<v Speaker 1>haul my golden retriever back and forth with me Kelli

0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 1>and you know, like just trying to figure out where

0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:06.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to live and what I'm gonna do, how

0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:07.040
<v Speaker 1>A'm gonna.

0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:09.520
<v Speaker 2>Wear those shoes that took her a whole season at

0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:11.120
<v Speaker 2>least to get me into the shoes she wanted me

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:11.520
<v Speaker 2>to wear.

0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:16.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, so funny. I know, I know it's also funny.

0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:18.440
<v Speaker 1>So I'll let you finish. Then I just want to

0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:21.800
<v Speaker 1>say something about your angst that you talked about. Please

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 1>tell me what you want to say now about I'm

0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:30.720
<v Speaker 1>going to say that, you know, I think you're always

0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 1>really good about saying when you were nervous or worried

0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 1>or even if something upset you. But I was very touched.

0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I feel like I I hope that you

0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:53.960
<v Speaker 1>felt if you shared that with us, that you were

0:03:54.520 --> 0:03:59.600
<v Speaker 1>taken care of. Like I hope that when you felt

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 1>nervous or literally angst and you would lie in bed

0:04:04.040 --> 0:04:07.400
<v Speaker 1>and worry about seeing your body, any of these things

0:04:07.400 --> 0:04:10.240
<v Speaker 1>at the times that in which you felt comfortable to

0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:12.800
<v Speaker 1>share it. And I feel like we we talked a

0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:19.280
<v Speaker 1>decent amount about that that you nobody dismissed it as silliness, no,

0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:24.479
<v Speaker 1>but I was like, wow, it really like state. It

0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:29.000
<v Speaker 1>was like your constant companion for the entire first season

0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:33.560
<v Speaker 1>for sure, for sure. And my part of me is like,

0:04:33.960 --> 0:04:37.680
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh. But the other part of me is like, wow,

0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:42.440
<v Speaker 1>look at her. Because everybody has a way of like

0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:47.280
<v Speaker 1>revealing or beings demonstrative about the things that they're worried about,

0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:51.240
<v Speaker 1>and some people are are willing to share it, and

0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:55.040
<v Speaker 1>some people just it blurts out and in different directions,

0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:57.240
<v Speaker 1>and you have to assume that it's because they're worried

0:04:57.320 --> 0:05:02.240
<v Speaker 1>or they're insecure, nervous like it. That's our most human

0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:11.000
<v Speaker 1>parts of ourselves. Absolutely, But I just don't like, you

0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 1>didn't really it didn't really mess with you. Curiously, I

0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:25.919
<v Speaker 1>know it didn't really mess with you. And that is

0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:29.080
<v Speaker 1>a real testimony because I feel like we talked about

0:05:29.200 --> 0:05:34.480
<v Speaker 1>being worried, upset, nervous, et cetera, and you, I think

0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:36.600
<v Speaker 1>you started the podcast today Sarah Jessica doesn't cry much,

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:38.320
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, what, I feel like I am

0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:44.680
<v Speaker 1>so sensitive so overly. Well, it's not creating sense of

0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:48.440
<v Speaker 1>or two different things, right, but I feel like in

0:05:48.480 --> 0:05:53.280
<v Speaker 1>my head I'm a mess, worried, nervous, et cetera, et cetera.

0:05:53.440 --> 0:05:55.960
<v Speaker 1>But we have like a job to do in the

0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:59.400
<v Speaker 1>camera rolls is to try to convince somebody at that

0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:03.240
<v Speaker 1>time that you are Charlotte and you feel really strongly

0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:05.279
<v Speaker 1>about this and you need to get from A to

0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>B and then B two C and and then exit.

0:06:09.279 --> 0:06:11.440
<v Speaker 1>Cy is where you're going to and the camera is

0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:14.240
<v Speaker 1>going to say cut right, thank god. Well, she was

0:06:14.279 --> 0:06:17.440
<v Speaker 1>so good at saying when she was upset, nervous, and

0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:21.760
<v Speaker 1>then something did something like distracted you or gotten a thing.

0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:24.920
<v Speaker 1>Then it was like over and out and done, like

0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:29.200
<v Speaker 1>you expelled it. But I didn't know that you actually

0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:32.320
<v Speaker 1>weren't expelling all of it, like you weren't ridding yourself

0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:35.480
<v Speaker 1>of all of it. You actually were like, hang on

0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:37.440
<v Speaker 1>to have a hood about I did.

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:39.960
<v Speaker 2>I did, I did, And I think, I mean, really,

0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:42.120
<v Speaker 2>what you're saying, when I think you're saying, is that

0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 2>I am.

0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:44.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't have a.

0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:47.600
<v Speaker 2>Lot of cover, you know, my my myself if I

0:06:47.640 --> 0:06:49.440
<v Speaker 2>know you and I trust you, which I do obviously

0:06:49.520 --> 0:06:52.600
<v Speaker 2>trust you. Ever since the Krispy Kremes, I was.

0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:55.679
<v Speaker 1>Like, I can talk to her, but I didn't. I didn't.

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.320
<v Speaker 2>I think it took a while for me to feel

0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:01.800
<v Speaker 2>because I've been in these other TV situations where you know,

0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:03.800
<v Speaker 2>you did just kind of you were in your own

0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:07.000
<v Speaker 2>bubble and you had your own situation and you wouldn't

0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:11.000
<v Speaker 2>want to burden the others or you know, whatever it

0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:13.840
<v Speaker 2>would be, or necessarily share all of your thoughts. I

0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:17.400
<v Speaker 2>wasn't in a safe situation previous to our show, let's

0:07:17.400 --> 0:07:19.960
<v Speaker 2>put it that way. So I think once we got

0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:23.280
<v Speaker 2>to our show. It did take me some time because

0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:26.160
<v Speaker 2>I thought all of you were sew together and New

0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:29.600
<v Speaker 2>York and tough, you know, and you are in a

0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:30.160
<v Speaker 2>certain way.

0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:32.840
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying. Nay, I just don't. You're funny.

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 1>But like you talk about the rain's nothing here. I

0:07:34.680 --> 0:07:41.520
<v Speaker 1>mean for me, I have so many traumatic rain memories. Okay,

0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:45.000
<v Speaker 1>like in my mind, like the sideways rain. I remember

0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:48.880
<v Speaker 1>one time. Do you remember that the sideways rain? Remember

0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:51.080
<v Speaker 1>that Nokia shiny phone I had that. You always like,

0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:53.200
<v Speaker 1>why do you have that phone? Do you remember this?

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:55.640
<v Speaker 1>Was it like a mirror reflected. It was like from

0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:57.880
<v Speaker 1>the matrix or whatever. I check my teeth in it,

0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>which it lip and it was like a mirror. Yes,

0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:05.840
<v Speaker 1>And he would laugh at me, laugh at me. I

0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:08.200
<v Speaker 1>was on the shiny phone, which was like my prize possession,

0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:12.360
<v Speaker 1>trying to walk to my Upper West Side apartment. Yeah,

0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I had no they didn't past the men. Okay, I'm

0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:18.680
<v Speaker 1>not sure. I'm shaking the flowers. That's how excited I am.

0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:21.320
<v Speaker 1>The rain. The rain came and it came sideways, and

0:08:21.400 --> 0:08:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I was like the phone. I was talking on the phone.

0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:24.760
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh my god, I've got to get

0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:27.400
<v Speaker 1>into a door, stupid phone.

0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:29.440
<v Speaker 2>Yes, you know what I mean, like I have. And

0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:31.800
<v Speaker 2>then like one time I was shopping. Oh, this was

0:08:31.800 --> 0:08:32.439
<v Speaker 2>a bad memory.

0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:34.680
<v Speaker 1>I was shopping. I was wearing my bright pink puffer.

0:08:34.800 --> 0:08:37.040
<v Speaker 1>Don't ask me why why were that pink puffer? You remember,

0:08:37.360 --> 0:08:42.959
<v Speaker 1>I mean so bright but very cozy. Yes, you're the

0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:45.880
<v Speaker 1>queen of cozy. I love to be. I'm always if

0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:50.480
<v Speaker 1>you're looking to feel good, travel well, pack right among

0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:53.320
<v Speaker 1>the things. Lady, what are my specialties? Is true? So

0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm marrying my paint puffer.

0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.400
<v Speaker 2>I had gone downtown to go shopping. That's when I lived,

0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:57.160
<v Speaker 2>the Upper West Side.

0:08:57.559 --> 0:08:59.839
<v Speaker 1>I had shopped. I had multiple bags, you know, very

0:08:59.840 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 1>New York City. I was. It was a day off.

0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:03.640
<v Speaker 1>I had no makeup on. I'm sure my hair was

0:09:03.679 --> 0:09:04.840
<v Speaker 1>a mess.

0:09:04.840 --> 0:09:07.719
<v Speaker 2>Suddenly the rain comes and I'm like, no, I think

0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:10.120
<v Speaker 2>I was wearing mug boots and I'm not prepared for

0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:12.240
<v Speaker 2>the rain. It's cold too, right, soa I'm wearing the

0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:16.040
<v Speaker 2>puffer and it got so wet that the bags gave out.

0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:21.080
<v Speaker 1>The things get that fall on the ground. That's really awful. Yeah,

0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:23.560
<v Speaker 1>then I have to find the subway. I'm on the subway.

0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:25.480
<v Speaker 1>I get on the subway, I'm holding the things. I'm

0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:29.199
<v Speaker 1>like a wet rat, you know, and these young high

0:09:29.240 --> 0:09:31.360
<v Speaker 1>school kids get on and there are a bunch of

0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:34.320
<v Speaker 1>boys and they're like rah, and I'm like, oh god.

0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:36.040
<v Speaker 1>And they look at me and they're like, that was

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:37.319
<v Speaker 1>like that girl from the Sex and the City. And

0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:39.560
<v Speaker 1>the other guy's like, that's not her. She's ugly.

0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:41.920
<v Speaker 2>And I was like, okay, I don't know if this

0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:44.880
<v Speaker 2>is good or bad, but it looked like a white rad,

0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:45.720
<v Speaker 2>a wet rad.

0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, you know, it's probably a white rang. Whichever, both,

0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:52.160
<v Speaker 1>it's probably a good thing because they're not gonna ask

0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:54.200
<v Speaker 1>for autographic a picture right now. I don't think we

0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:56.040
<v Speaker 1>were a picture time in history anyway.

0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:59.280
<v Speaker 2>Side note, I feel very much a whimp, you know,

0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.040
<v Speaker 2>compared to you guys, even Cynthia especially, I mean, Kim

0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:06.320
<v Speaker 2>is definitely more, you know, of the sensitive nature and

0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:08.520
<v Speaker 2>and sometimes you know, she and I would.

0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Be like we're cold, yeah, and you would be like,

0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:17.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, used to it, I know, and that's actually

0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.240
<v Speaker 1>really good advice. But I always feel, and I felt

0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:22.480
<v Speaker 1>at the time in the beginning, especially because the first

0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:25.360
<v Speaker 1>season was so fast. You shot in three months.

0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:28.600
<v Speaker 2>I believe the whole season, and I was just like,

0:10:28.960 --> 0:10:29.480
<v Speaker 2>I got.

0:10:29.280 --> 0:10:32.320
<v Speaker 1>To pretend like I'm a month we started. I know

0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:33.760
<v Speaker 1>we are going to get to the bottom of this.

0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I bet I have my call sheets though, no,

0:10:37.000 --> 0:10:37.880
<v Speaker 1>oh yeah, I'm sure.

0:10:38.640 --> 0:10:45.520
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, wow, incredible, incredible. Molly also has all the costume.

0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.040
<v Speaker 1>Molly's like a receptacle. She has like made so much

0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:48.679
<v Speaker 1>great enough.

0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:51.160
<v Speaker 2>So back to me and the and the and the

0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:54.200
<v Speaker 2>things I was holding clothes. I think for me, I

0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:57.079
<v Speaker 2>felt so upset that they had tried to demote me

0:10:57.240 --> 0:11:00.520
<v Speaker 2>during the pilot. You heard that story, and I didn't

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:02.720
<v Speaker 2>tell you guys, because I felt like that was like

0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:05.200
<v Speaker 2>a weight and like also I didn't want them to

0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:06.960
<v Speaker 2>be like, yeah, she doesn't fit in, Like that was

0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:09.240
<v Speaker 2>my insecurity in the beginning, right, Yeah, I was like, yeah,

0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:11.880
<v Speaker 2>we shouldn't fit in obviously, you know what I mean,

0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Like in my mind, that was that was like a

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:18.920
<v Speaker 2>possibility for a while. It went away, you know, and

0:11:19.040 --> 0:11:22.120
<v Speaker 2>thank goodness. And also I did have that core belief

0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:24.160
<v Speaker 2>in Charlotte, thank goodness.

0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:26.640
<v Speaker 1>And I feel like you guys did too. Yeah, I

0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:28.840
<v Speaker 1>didn't feel like you were. I had a core belief

0:11:28.880 --> 0:11:32.240
<v Speaker 1>in everything all of it right, Like in the Foursome,

0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:36.160
<v Speaker 1>I did. Absolutely it had to be this way, right,

0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 1>you know that we all needed each other. Yes, even

0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:45.280
<v Speaker 1>if you looked at it like to survive. Absolutely, it

0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:48.280
<v Speaker 1>was like, well we were, we were very because weather personal.

0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:51.920
<v Speaker 1>Yet it was like more like, well you have to

0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:57.080
<v Speaker 1>have she needs me, I need her. We are sustaining,

0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:01.839
<v Speaker 1>we are our life sustaining. Absolutely, because these stories need

0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:05.560
<v Speaker 1>to these stories need to bounce off of each other

0:12:05.760 --> 0:12:10.560
<v Speaker 1>absolute order to be to have like relative and like

0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:12.280
<v Speaker 1>touch on things a.

0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:14.600
<v Speaker 2>Bigger because that's that's one of the things I love.

0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:17.480
<v Speaker 2>And one of the reasons for the podcast is the themes, which.

0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:19.760
<v Speaker 1>We literally were supposed to talk about, but there's too much.

0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:24.439
<v Speaker 2>The themes are so great, right, and I just want

0:12:24.480 --> 0:12:26.440
<v Speaker 2>to touch on this for a second at least because

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:29.320
<v Speaker 2>when I'm watching you first of all, Also, let me

0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:32.160
<v Speaker 2>just say everyone has better storylines and first season than

0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:36.160
<v Speaker 2>I remember, including myself. Right, So with Carrie, I just

0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:38.920
<v Speaker 2>want to talk about Carrie for a second, and Big

0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:41.720
<v Speaker 2>in particular and the other men that are around Carrie

0:12:41.760 --> 0:12:44.280
<v Speaker 2>because Okay, oh my god, Oh I've been dying to

0:12:44.280 --> 0:12:46.200
<v Speaker 2>ask you this. Okay, two things, Oh my god, thank god,

0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:52.679
<v Speaker 2>I remembered number one. Do you remember this insane sex

0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:53.679
<v Speaker 2>tape episode?

0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:57.439
<v Speaker 1>What? Okay, yes, it's possibly.

0:12:57.559 --> 0:13:02.160
<v Speaker 2>It's with Modalizers with Carrit with real mocked playing the modelizer.

0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:09.640
<v Speaker 1>So I remember him. I don't remember anything else. Wasn't

0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:11.280
<v Speaker 1>he kind of a big deal? Did he become a

0:13:11.320 --> 0:13:14.840
<v Speaker 1>big deal? Was he's on Suits? The original Suits? And

0:13:14.880 --> 0:13:17.800
<v Speaker 1>then he quit acting and moved to Europe with his family.

0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:20.480
<v Speaker 1>It's not awesome. I know they pulled him back in

0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:24.040
<v Speaker 1>by doing suits la. Oh really, only a little bit

0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:27.240
<v Speaker 1>he can out there? I don't think does anyone know?

0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:30.880
<v Speaker 1>Is he anyway? I's talking about toxic ma masculinity in

0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.720
<v Speaker 1>the world. I love him. Oh, I'm passionately begging him

0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:37.760
<v Speaker 1>to be on the podcast. What Why would he say? No?

0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:39.600
<v Speaker 1>I think he's busy.

0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:41.840
<v Speaker 2>But you know what, we need him because we need

0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:45.360
<v Speaker 2>some clarity on this one episode. Okay, I didn't really

0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:47.559
<v Speaker 2>remember it, which I think is also interesting.

0:13:47.640 --> 0:13:50.040
<v Speaker 1>So you don't think it's material from her book.

0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:52.199
<v Speaker 2>I do think it's material from her book, and I

0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:54.160
<v Speaker 2>just haven't had time to look. Maybe she just didn't

0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 2>want to mention, but you know how she was actually

0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:59.080
<v Speaker 2>telling stories that she heard. She did say I do

0:13:59.160 --> 0:14:01.920
<v Speaker 2>think that was a real story that was circulating, got it?

0:14:02.480 --> 0:14:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Old person?

0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:06.600
<v Speaker 2>So basically, Gabriel mocked incredibly handsome, he was an artist.

0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:08.640
<v Speaker 2>You're with him at his art studio and he's like

0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:10.000
<v Speaker 2>moving paint around a.

0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Camera a big open soho space very much so yeah,

0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:14.480
<v Speaker 1>vague recollection, yes, And.

0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:16.080
<v Speaker 2>Then he says, but I need to show you my

0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:18.679
<v Speaker 2>real work of art, at which point he pulls you

0:14:18.720 --> 0:14:20.960
<v Speaker 2>into a different room and you're like, cool, Carrie, You've

0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:23.880
<v Speaker 2>got your cigarette, you know, you're cool. And you go

0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:26.239
<v Speaker 2>too this other room and there's all these old fashioned

0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:29.800
<v Speaker 2>TVs set up in this weird tower and then he

0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:32.800
<v Speaker 2>presses play or turns them all on by hand maybe,

0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:37.000
<v Speaker 2>and it's him having sex with different models, unbeknownst to

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:38.160
<v Speaker 2>the models.

0:14:38.640 --> 0:14:42.000
<v Speaker 1>And you sit there, one at a time, one at

0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:47.200
<v Speaker 1>a time. Yes, yes, he's having sex. This is his

0:14:47.320 --> 0:14:50.840
<v Speaker 1>calling card. This is that I'm going to sleep with

0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:54.000
<v Speaker 1>you and film it and not tell you. Yes.

0:14:54.160 --> 0:14:57.400
<v Speaker 2>Wow, But he tells you, Carrie, because you're cool, right,

0:14:57.680 --> 0:14:59.280
<v Speaker 2>and he can confide to you. You're like one of

0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:02.240
<v Speaker 2>the guys somehow times in the beginning, I know, and

0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:03.920
<v Speaker 2>you very gamely sit there.

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Okay, do you remember this no one remembers this. It's fascinating. Okay,

0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I bet I didn't have to watch it. I'm sure

0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:13.720
<v Speaker 1>you didn't have to watch Is there a shot that

0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:17.600
<v Speaker 1>I am included in this imagery? I would have to

0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:18.320
<v Speaker 1>go back and look.

0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:20.240
<v Speaker 2>I think there's a shot where you're included in the

0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:21.120
<v Speaker 2>back of the TVs.

0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:23.120
<v Speaker 1>But we can't see what's on the TV. So I

0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:24.720
<v Speaker 1>bet I didn't have to see it. And then at

0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:31.920
<v Speaker 1>the end you're like, oh oh, and then your voiceover

0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:34.440
<v Speaker 1>says something like I recognize them all from the pages

0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:40.480
<v Speaker 1>of Vogue. Every major fragrance ad was represented on screen.

0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:44.240
<v Speaker 1>It's horrifying, right, But then you're so calm and collected,

0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:48.200
<v Speaker 1>and then you're like, I need a cigarette. Can you

0:15:48.280 --> 0:15:50.760
<v Speaker 1>believe it? No, it's so.

0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:55.160
<v Speaker 2>Old school, you know what I'm saying in a bad way, right,

0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:57.640
<v Speaker 2>And I'm dying to talk to Gabriel Monckton what he

0:15:57.760 --> 0:15:58.800
<v Speaker 2>thought and felt film.

0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:01.880
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't want to talk about it. Maybe that might

0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:04.800
<v Speaker 1>be why it's not his bright. It might be why

0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:07.320
<v Speaker 1>he's busy. So you didn't know, you didn't know you

0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:10.080
<v Speaker 1>were actually watching. To me, that's for sure. We had nothing,

0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.320
<v Speaker 1>We had no clothing, We were being getting.

0:16:12.560 --> 0:16:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh, you know, when I talked to Molly, she this

0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:17.480
<v Speaker 2>is when Molly knew every corner of Century City, sorry,

0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:20.640
<v Speaker 2>century twenty one, and you won't ask her where the belts.

0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:21.640
<v Speaker 1>She lived down there.

0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:24.000
<v Speaker 2>And I remember going with them to Century twenty one,

0:16:24.160 --> 0:16:25.320
<v Speaker 2>like we would have shopping.

0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Down would be like, there's four dresses down here, exactly,

0:16:28.120 --> 0:16:31.120
<v Speaker 1>come on your lunch free, exactly exactly, it's a trip.

0:16:31.160 --> 0:16:34.360
<v Speaker 2>And people on the on the Great Vitadini down here,

0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:36.840
<v Speaker 2>there were people on the they were like, what is

0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:37.680
<v Speaker 2>century twenty one?

0:16:37.720 --> 0:16:40.440
<v Speaker 1>What are they talking about? I know, I know, I know.

0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:54.760
<v Speaker 2>So anyway, there are some things, some some really like

0:16:55.160 --> 0:17:00.359
<v Speaker 2>question problematic, problematic. But for us at the time, I

0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:03.440
<v Speaker 2>I remember thinking like, wow, this is racy for TV. Yeah,

0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:07.360
<v Speaker 2>but I don't remember thinking this isn't true or anything

0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:07.600
<v Speaker 2>like that.

0:17:07.640 --> 0:17:12.280
<v Speaker 1>We were just used to it. Yeah, you know, yeah, yeah,

0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:16.040
<v Speaker 1>I think the difference between racy and problematic it might

0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:22.679
<v Speaker 1>not have been even in our lexicon, like we wouldn't

0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:28.560
<v Speaker 1>necessarily have believed it was if the culture in which

0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:31.439
<v Speaker 1>we were living kind of existed in a way and

0:17:31.480 --> 0:17:35.400
<v Speaker 1>we were just carrying on exactly, get on with your day,

0:17:35.480 --> 0:17:42.000
<v Speaker 1>get on with your life. Somewhere else, and so today,

0:17:42.040 --> 0:17:46.359
<v Speaker 1>of course we'd be it wouldn't it wouldn't be suggested

0:17:46.400 --> 0:17:48.800
<v Speaker 1>as a plot line. But if for some crazy reason

0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:51.080
<v Speaker 1>it were like say a writer had dropped from a

0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:55.720
<v Speaker 1>time machine and offered that up, all of us would say,

0:17:55.880 --> 0:17:59.680
<v Speaker 1>you understand that, Carrie can't you can do this? Right?

0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:03.399
<v Speaker 1>The response Kerry needs to then go call the police. Correct,

0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Like there has to be an entirely different right response. Right,

0:18:07.760 --> 0:18:12.960
<v Speaker 1>she can't be a gavalier and internally objecting, right, which

0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:13.199
<v Speaker 1>you do.

0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:15.680
<v Speaker 2>Later tell Samantha not to go, but then Samantha goes

0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:17.720
<v Speaker 2>because she wants to be filmed, and then he tells

0:18:17.720 --> 0:18:19.800
<v Speaker 2>her he's not going to film her because she's not

0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:22.400
<v Speaker 2>a model, and she says, do it anyway. And it's

0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:25.560
<v Speaker 2>all very interesting. But the bigger, the bigger issue for

0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:28.679
<v Speaker 2>me watching the first season is not these you know,

0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:31.760
<v Speaker 2>occasionally questionable and liked about the twenty seven guys. You're

0:18:31.800 --> 0:18:35.080
<v Speaker 2>definitely in like some very questionable locations and.

0:18:35.040 --> 0:18:37.160
<v Speaker 1>You're just like what and you're like I just needed

0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:40.159
<v Speaker 1>to be kissed, Like it's all so very I just

0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:40.680
<v Speaker 1>love it.

0:18:40.680 --> 0:18:44.520
<v Speaker 2>It's very exciting and also like odd, you know, to

0:18:44.600 --> 0:18:47.359
<v Speaker 2>remember back then But the thing that the through line

0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:50.760
<v Speaker 2>that is hard to watch for me and shocking really

0:18:50.840 --> 0:18:54.520
<v Speaker 2>surprise me is the complete.

0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Wall that Big has.

0:18:57.400 --> 0:19:00.919
<v Speaker 2>Up just as a human, you know, not necessarily towards you,

0:19:00.960 --> 0:19:02.719
<v Speaker 2>just in general, Like you take him to a party

0:19:02.760 --> 0:19:05.280
<v Speaker 2>where he takes you to a party, and that guy

0:19:05.320 --> 0:19:07.639
<v Speaker 2>who recurred, I can't remember his name right now, he

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:08.479
<v Speaker 2>is his party.

0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:10.359
<v Speaker 1>He had a cigar, he always had a cigar. Who's

0:19:10.400 --> 0:19:13.440
<v Speaker 1>blonde guy? I can't remember that, the one that who's

0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:14.240
<v Speaker 1>crossword puzzle?

0:19:14.320 --> 0:19:16.239
<v Speaker 2>I no, I think it's a different one than him,

0:19:16.280 --> 0:19:18.040
<v Speaker 2>But in my mind they were also the same, but

0:19:18.040 --> 0:19:21.160
<v Speaker 2>they were different blonde guys. We're friends of bigs and

0:19:21.240 --> 0:19:23.120
<v Speaker 2>you go to this party and this one girl comes

0:19:23.200 --> 0:19:24.440
<v Speaker 2>up and like kisses him right.

0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:26.200
<v Speaker 1>In front of you and is like you you still

0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:27.119
<v Speaker 1>have my passport?

0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:31.160
<v Speaker 2>You're like, oh, international travel, Like you're just so you

0:19:31.240 --> 0:19:35.440
<v Speaker 2>handle it, man, But inside you can see flitting across

0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:38.800
<v Speaker 2>your face at all times, so many thoughts and feelings

0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:41.880
<v Speaker 2>and thoughts and feelings. And then there's different times when

0:19:41.880 --> 0:19:43.439
<v Speaker 2>you try to get Big to talk to you in

0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:47.639
<v Speaker 2>all these different ways, and it's like infuriating to watch.

0:19:47.680 --> 0:19:49.920
<v Speaker 2>I just want to shake Big, but I never thought

0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:51.840
<v Speaker 2>about it at the time, because.

0:19:51.760 --> 0:19:53.360
<v Speaker 1>First of all, we just read a script.

0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:58.080
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I think that you were much more able

0:19:58.200 --> 0:20:01.600
<v Speaker 2>to be objective and think about the overall arc and

0:20:01.760 --> 0:20:05.040
<v Speaker 2>you know, things from a storytelling perspective back then. Even

0:20:05.560 --> 0:20:07.280
<v Speaker 2>that I was, but I was just like, it is

0:20:07.280 --> 0:20:09.920
<v Speaker 2>what it is. I'm team big, I believe you love

0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:13.040
<v Speaker 2>No no, no, I didn't really there was no critical thought

0:20:13.119 --> 0:20:15.560
<v Speaker 2>or whatever. And also, and I talked to Candas a

0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:17.600
<v Speaker 2>little bit about it. It was interesting to hear her

0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:20.440
<v Speaker 2>point of view. That's what our lives were like then.

0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:24.679
<v Speaker 2>We were used to that as women being alive in

0:20:24.720 --> 0:20:27.840
<v Speaker 2>that time. Yeah, like there weren't some guys who were

0:20:27.880 --> 0:20:30.080
<v Speaker 2>expressive and some guys who weren't, or some guys who

0:20:30.119 --> 0:20:33.240
<v Speaker 2>are emostly intelligent, some guys who weren't. They were just

0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:35.800
<v Speaker 2>guys and they were shut off. And so your thing

0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:37.960
<v Speaker 2>was like like one time, you'd have those couple drinks

0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:39.080
<v Speaker 2>and you'd go over and then you try to get

0:20:39.119 --> 0:20:39.560
<v Speaker 2>them to talk.

0:20:39.480 --> 0:20:41.520
<v Speaker 1>To you, and you'd be like, Carrie, what's wrong with you?

0:20:41.520 --> 0:20:43.520
<v Speaker 1>You'd be like, I'm just too much. You know, You're

0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:47.320
<v Speaker 1>so not too much. You're amazing, you are You're so amazing.

0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:50.960
<v Speaker 1>You're too good for Big, you are Look, she's surprised.

0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:54.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean I've had so many guests also who are like, oh, yeah,

0:20:54.280 --> 0:20:56.880
<v Speaker 1>she's too good for Big. And then I'm like, well, see,

0:20:57.040 --> 0:21:04.040
<v Speaker 1>I tell us, I guess that made her happy. Like

0:21:04.640 --> 0:21:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that, I don't know that Carrie's I

0:21:13.119 --> 0:21:15.040
<v Speaker 1>know people have a lot of strong feelings about Carry.

0:21:15.080 --> 0:21:18.040
<v Speaker 1>I've come to understand that people have feelings about Carrie

0:21:18.440 --> 0:21:22.000
<v Speaker 1>and that's perfectly all right, and there's nothing you can

0:21:22.040 --> 0:21:25.080
<v Speaker 1>do about it. And it just means they love the show.

0:21:25.240 --> 0:21:29.640
<v Speaker 1>It just means something has connected gotten a little bit

0:21:29.760 --> 0:21:35.600
<v Speaker 1>with them. Yeah, And my feeling is that I believe

0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Carrie is very smart. I believe Carrie is bright, and

0:21:39.880 --> 0:21:46.120
<v Speaker 1>I believe that she is that she sees this man

0:21:46.280 --> 0:21:50.320
<v Speaker 1>they meet. He asks her this question in the pilot,

0:21:50.760 --> 0:21:53.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's like a harpoon. It's like this thing got

0:21:53.680 --> 0:21:57.560
<v Speaker 1>into her that is interesting. And I don't know that

0:21:57.680 --> 0:22:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Big is as bright as Carrie. I actually, I really

0:22:00.320 --> 0:22:08.320
<v Speaker 1>don't think he's as facile and as complicated a human

0:22:08.359 --> 0:22:13.120
<v Speaker 1>being as she is. It's like, if you look at

0:22:13.200 --> 0:22:17.359
<v Speaker 1>architecture that is beautiful, and there is a kind of

0:22:17.400 --> 0:22:22.479
<v Speaker 1>simplicity to it. You are admiring of its stability, You

0:22:22.560 --> 0:22:26.719
<v Speaker 1>are admiring of its place, that it can stand in

0:22:26.800 --> 0:22:30.639
<v Speaker 1>its simplicity and people can look to it and it

0:22:30.640 --> 0:22:33.760
<v Speaker 1>can provide a kind of reliable shelter, and it can

0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:36.639
<v Speaker 1>be a mark in a time and history. And I

0:22:36.680 --> 0:22:42.199
<v Speaker 1>feel like Carrie looked at Big and she you know,

0:22:43.160 --> 0:22:47.440
<v Speaker 1>inexplicable feelings. It is the human being that can't explain

0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:50.399
<v Speaker 1>to her friends why somebody that could be beneath her

0:22:50.560 --> 0:22:58.720
<v Speaker 1>might be beneath her is dictating the hunt, yes, and

0:22:58.880 --> 0:23:07.359
<v Speaker 1>well put, I I don't think that that is. I

0:23:07.400 --> 0:23:10.160
<v Speaker 1>can't place any judgment on it. I can't say he's

0:23:10.160 --> 0:23:16.879
<v Speaker 1>a bad guy or vacuus or like shallow or not.

0:23:18.640 --> 0:23:24.640
<v Speaker 1>He is what he is. And it wasn't as if

0:23:24.720 --> 0:23:29.240
<v Speaker 1>like there was an erosion, like water washed away like

0:23:29.280 --> 0:23:32.040
<v Speaker 1>a whole shoreline, and finally he couldn't take it anymore,

0:23:32.000 --> 0:23:35.359
<v Speaker 1>and like he's like all right, you know, like sure,

0:23:35.960 --> 0:23:40.720
<v Speaker 1>I think he came to see what her absence in

0:23:40.800 --> 0:23:44.399
<v Speaker 1>his life meant, and even if she wasn't the type.

0:23:44.520 --> 0:23:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Because I try to remember this, and this is a

0:23:48.160 --> 0:23:52.240
<v Speaker 1>very long explanation for or as Bridget ever always likes

0:23:52.240 --> 0:23:58.119
<v Speaker 1>to say, uh, short, story long. Sometimes you have to

0:23:58.200 --> 0:24:04.800
<v Speaker 1>remember the age of the person, what year they were born,

0:24:06.000 --> 0:24:09.600
<v Speaker 1>who raised them, and what year they were born. So

0:24:09.680 --> 0:24:13.280
<v Speaker 1>look at Big. Yeah, so in early two thousands, Big

0:24:13.480 --> 0:24:17.800
<v Speaker 1>was how old? I don't know, forty two okay, So

0:24:18.000 --> 0:24:23.000
<v Speaker 1>in that means that he was born in nineteen sixty, right,

0:24:23.600 --> 0:24:26.240
<v Speaker 1>or nineteen fifty eight? Sure, right, I'm going to go

0:24:26.240 --> 0:24:29.040
<v Speaker 1>with a fifty eight Okay, So he was born in

0:24:29.080 --> 0:24:33.119
<v Speaker 1>fifty eight. That means his dad was born in like

0:24:33.400 --> 0:24:39.320
<v Speaker 1>forty no, thirty thirty thirty eight? Yeah, right, totally different time. Yeah,

0:24:39.800 --> 0:24:47.400
<v Speaker 1>who raised him? Persian era people? Correct? He chose everything

0:24:48.160 --> 0:24:51.560
<v Speaker 1>the conventional way. He went to college, he got a

0:24:51.560 --> 0:24:53.760
<v Speaker 1>good job, he worked in finance. He bought this kind

0:24:53.760 --> 0:24:55.679
<v Speaker 1>of apartment. He dresses like this, He goes for a

0:24:55.680 --> 0:24:59.080
<v Speaker 1>cigar like he is going to have to undo his

0:24:59.320 --> 0:25:09.720
<v Speaker 1>entire cultural DNA to appreciate what Carrie is offering. And

0:25:10.160 --> 0:25:13.440
<v Speaker 1>that's a really big deal. So why did she want

0:25:13.440 --> 0:25:17.040
<v Speaker 1>that so badly? Because that's what she liked. God, that's

0:25:17.040 --> 0:25:19.760
<v Speaker 1>what she loved. He is who she loved. She liked

0:25:19.760 --> 0:25:21.639
<v Speaker 1>the way he smelled, she liked the way he looked,

0:25:21.640 --> 0:25:23.199
<v Speaker 1>She liked the way he owned the street. She liked

0:25:23.200 --> 0:25:25.320
<v Speaker 1>the way he drove around the city. She liked the

0:25:25.320 --> 0:25:27.159
<v Speaker 1>way he talked to her when they were good. She

0:25:27.320 --> 0:25:29.720
<v Speaker 1>liked the way that she knew she was mysterious to him,

0:25:29.720 --> 0:25:31.720
<v Speaker 1>that she was kind of like this, and I'm going

0:25:31.800 --> 0:25:34.680
<v Speaker 1>to use the word exotic in the sense of it

0:25:34.720 --> 0:25:39.000
<v Speaker 1>was unknown to him. It was like a she was

0:25:40.040 --> 0:25:47.560
<v Speaker 1>a source of total curiosity, but not what everybody else

0:25:47.600 --> 0:25:52.160
<v Speaker 1>around him was doing. And he did that two times.

0:25:52.600 --> 0:25:56.159
<v Speaker 1>He did the other thing two times. Two times he

0:25:56.240 --> 0:25:58.960
<v Speaker 1>did the thing that his dad told him or would

0:25:59.000 --> 0:26:01.439
<v Speaker 1>have told him to do. YEA, she is from a

0:26:01.480 --> 0:26:05.880
<v Speaker 1>good family. Her hair does this, she can look good

0:26:05.920 --> 0:26:10.360
<v Speaker 1>in a ship. She's this, she's this. She won't embarrass us,

0:26:11.080 --> 0:26:15.120
<v Speaker 1>she won't be colorful at the wrong time. She won't

0:26:15.200 --> 0:26:17.399
<v Speaker 1>reach for the same cocktail that the men are reaching for,

0:26:17.640 --> 0:26:24.480
<v Speaker 1>whatever it is culturally that is. And so I think

0:26:24.560 --> 0:26:26.600
<v Speaker 1>Carrie pushed against that the whole time, like she was

0:26:26.720 --> 0:26:32.560
<v Speaker 1>always trying to allow him the freedom to make the

0:26:32.760 --> 0:26:36.400
<v Speaker 1>choice that he basically said he wanted to make from

0:26:36.400 --> 0:26:39.760
<v Speaker 1>the minute they met. You feel that, I feel he

0:26:40.880 --> 0:26:44.120
<v Speaker 1>the minute that they had that exchange, the minute that

0:26:44.240 --> 0:26:48.000
<v Speaker 1>she said in his car the minute he said have

0:26:48.119 --> 0:26:52.320
<v Speaker 1>you ever been in love? And she said nine things

0:26:52.359 --> 0:26:56.000
<v Speaker 1>with one word or four words, and then he said,

0:26:56.200 --> 0:27:03.920
<v Speaker 1>abbs of fucking lutely. That's that's that's it. Yeah, it's

0:27:03.960 --> 0:27:07.160
<v Speaker 1>like I think it's being like. It doesn't mean that

0:27:07.240 --> 0:27:09.760
<v Speaker 1>she didn't hate him, that he didn't disappoint her, that

0:27:09.840 --> 0:27:12.000
<v Speaker 1>she didn't think he was a monster, that he was

0:27:12.080 --> 0:27:15.080
<v Speaker 1>far less a man, that she endowed him with far

0:27:15.200 --> 0:27:18.200
<v Speaker 1>too many good qualities, you know, when he disappointed her.

0:27:19.920 --> 0:27:22.360
<v Speaker 1>But they did end up together, They did end up

0:27:22.760 --> 0:27:26.280
<v Speaker 1>being married because he wanted to be with her, right,

0:27:26.440 --> 0:27:31.199
<v Speaker 1>It just took a while. Yeah, because he's he was baked,

0:27:32.000 --> 0:27:33.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, he was cooked. He was done, and he

0:27:33.800 --> 0:27:39.879
<v Speaker 1>had to be yes, you know, yes, And she stuck

0:27:39.920 --> 0:27:42.200
<v Speaker 1>around enough. It's not like she didn't go elsewhere. It's

0:27:42.200 --> 0:27:46.040
<v Speaker 1>not like she didn't try. It's not like she made

0:27:46.080 --> 0:27:52.280
<v Speaker 1>herself unavailable. Right, So I like this, This is helpful.

0:27:52.400 --> 0:27:55.159
<v Speaker 1>You can't be that devastated by the loss of a

0:27:55.200 --> 0:28:00.440
<v Speaker 1>person if they were are a mere version of who

0:28:00.440 --> 0:28:05.359
<v Speaker 1>you always wish they'd be. Like when he passed spoil alert,

0:28:06.840 --> 0:28:10.719
<v Speaker 1>I think everyone else, I think everyone knows my go ahead.

0:28:11.880 --> 0:28:16.040
<v Speaker 1>When he passed away, it was pretty tough on her, like, yeah,

0:28:16.119 --> 0:28:19.480
<v Speaker 1>of course that's because they're not saying I'm just saying

0:28:19.520 --> 0:28:24.880
<v Speaker 1>that because that was a really hard fought for love,

0:28:25.160 --> 0:28:37.120
