They quit first, but they 7 00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,479 Speaker 2: said they were good to fire me for punching somebody. 8 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: But you know, oldist around in the Morning show. 9 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 2: You can't lie when you smoke a lot of puns. 10 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: I love every single one of them. Lay Elvis string 11 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,839 Speaker 1: in the Morning Show. You know what, think back, Think 12 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: back to when you were a kid. Yeah, and you know, 13 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: sometimes you had moments alone, and so you kind of 14 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,199 Speaker 1: lived in your head and you acted plays out and 15 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: you sang songs and you had your own talent show 16 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: and even if it was only you in the room, whatever, 17 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: but you had an imagination. And unfortunately, when we get older, 18 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: we lose that imagination and we become like boring frumps, 19 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: and it really sucks. This is why I love the 20 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: work of Jake Shane and I just met him for 21 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: the first time, really sweet eye. He comes from this 22 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: great background of living in his head and it is 23 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 1: so paying off for him. Of course, TikTok, you know, 24 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: billions of around five billion people have seen his incredible content. 25 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: He's got a lot of followers, and he just comes 26 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: from this world of imagination where we could all do 27 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: the same if we weren't afraid to do it, and 28 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: he's making a great living doing it. I must assume 29 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: I'm not looking for numbers, but he's doing some great 30 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: things as far as being an influencer. TikTok is his world. 31 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: Let's talk to him. Please, where's Jake? Is he here? 32 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: Why are you keeping?

Look, welcome to the show. 35 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me. I know, did you guys hear 36 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: what we were talking about before we came in a 37 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: little bit? Okay, well thanks. I was laying a great 38 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: strong foundation. You heard none of it. Yeah, but you 39 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: know what I mean. How old are you, by the way, 40 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: twenty three? Okay, twenty three? When you were a kid 41 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: growing up here in New York, New York City guy, 42 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: by the way, now living in la We were talking 43 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 1: about how as kids we live in this in our heads, 44 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: in this world of imagination, and then as we get older, 45 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: as I've figured out, because I'm the oldest on the 46 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: planet Earth, I became a little frumpy and forgot about 47 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: my fun creative side. Sometimes. Yes, but you even at 48 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: twenty three, are still using that to make people laugh, 49 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: and you're just living in your head but showing the 50 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: world on TikTok. Right. 51 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 3: I think that was in part due to the pandemic 52 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 3: because I was so bored all the time, and I 53 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,239 Speaker 3: just would have no other outlet other than to make 54 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: my friends laugh. And I had like a like close 55 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: group of friends, and they were always so supportive of 56 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 3: anything I would do, and so they always thought I 57 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 3: was so funny. So I really think the reason the 58 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 3: TikTok kind of became what it did is because in 59 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: my head, there wasn't millions of people watching. It was 60 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 3: really just my friends. 61 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: Right. 62 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 3: Do you test things out on them all the time 63 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 3: before you put them out there on TikTok or do 64 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 3: you just put it out there and see what happens. Well, 65 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 3: they're always filming me unless I'm filming myself. Like, for example, 66 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 3: I filmed myself yesterday and I sent it to my 67 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 3: friends and I was like, is this funny? And they 68 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 3: were like no, and I I did it again and 69 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 3: they were like no. And then I did it again 70 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 3: and they're like fine, okay. And then for friends and 71 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 3: then they were like, maybe it's just because we you 72 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 3: do this all the time. And I was like, well, 73 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 3: I would hope so, because I think it's kind of funny. 74 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 3: But then when we're doing it in person, since they're 75 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 3: my best friends, I can tell when they're laughing and 76 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 3: when they're like pity laughing, or when they're just like 77 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 3: sometimes they don't laugh at all, and they'll just they'll 78 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 3: just go silent, and I'll like stop. I'll literally stop 79 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 3: mid sentence and look at them, and they'll just be 80 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 3: like enough, okay. It's good to have people who are 81 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 3: honest with you. Yes. 82 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,119 Speaker 1: And by the way, if you're not familiar with Jake's work, 83 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: and even though billions are billions aren't what I find fascinating. 84 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: Just to give people a local sample to taste, He'll 85 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: take a moment in history. Yes, this is a good, 86 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: easy description. He'll take a moment in history that we're 87 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: all familiar with, but add dialogue and movement and what 88 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: was it really like to the story. For instance, John Hancock, 89 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: as you know in the Declaration of Independence. A lot 90 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 1: of people signed it, but John Hancock's signature was massive 91 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: competeb way, so I'd be passed, right, I'd be passed. 92 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 3: Marie Antoinette getting canceled. 93 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, she's probably super upset. So you act that. What 94 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: was that scene like back in history? Like what really happened? 95 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 1: So Jake will take us there. Yeah. 96 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 3: My thing is is like, Okay, at the end of 97 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 3: the day, we're all humans, so we probably have the 98 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 3: same feelings that we did five hundred years ago. So 99 00:04:58,040 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 3: if I lived five hundred years ago and I was 100 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 3: Marie Antoinette and I was offering them cake and everyone 101 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 3: took it the wrong way, I'd be upset too. 102 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: You baked a bunk. And also, like at the Last 103 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: Supper with Jesus, who pays the bill, right, not Jesus. 104 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 3: Well, of course I was hoping it was free. But yeah, 105 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 3: well that's what Jesus thought. Well that was the miscommunication. 106 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 3: That was the miscommunication. 107 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: So you're sort of hearing where the scenarios come from, 108 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,919 Speaker 1: but you have to see Jake act them out to 109 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: understand because a lot of it is physical. To me, 110 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: it's the comedy. So to play the sound bag just 111 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: here on this medium, it'd be like, Okay, you don't 112 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,039 Speaker 1: see Jake like going through the part. 113 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, So it's all my little like movements that I 114 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 3: do throughout my body. I don't really know where I 115 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 3: get that from. I think I grew up watching a 116 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 3: lot of reality TV, So I think that's and you know, 117 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 3: when you're on reality TV, you talk with your hands 118 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 3: and you're moving a lot. And when you watch reality 119 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 3: TV at such a young age that maybe you're not 120 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 3: supposed to, brain kind of soaks it up like a 121 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 3: sponge and then it just kind of becomes who you are. 122 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 3: So like I remember I used to watch Jersey Shore 123 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 3: like every single week, and they talk with their hands website, 124 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 3: So that is kind of where I get that like 125 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 3: physical aspect of the comedy from. 126 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: Do you ever get to do fun collaborations with people 127 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 2: that you grew up watching like the Jersey Shore. 128 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:22,799 Speaker 1: Yes. 129 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 3: So I did a collaboration with the Jonas brothers. And 130 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 3: what's fun about those collaborations is that they're always completely organic, 131 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 3: like the Jonas Brothers. Like I woke up to Nick 132 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 3: Jonas do out of Me and I was like oh, 133 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 3: and I was like freaking out and I was, but 134 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 3: like the way my brain works is, I was like, okay, 135 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 3: well there was another character in the skit named Scott 136 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 3: and Nick did it and I was dming him being 137 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 3: like thank you for doing it. And then I was like, 138 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 3: we got to find someone to do the other characters, 139 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 3: like hoping he would like take the bait and like 140 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 3: have Joe do it or Kevin, and he did and 141 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 3: then so it was kind of just like and then 142 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 3: it just kind of spiraled from there. 143 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: But they had a lot of fun doing that with you. 144 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: It was so fun. It was so fun. So I'll 145 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: take you back how many years ago when I'm a 146 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: sucker for you came out. So our thing is they 147 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: broke into my apartment and woke me up in my 148 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: bed and kidnapped me and brought me to the radio 149 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: station and took over our show for the day. That 150 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: was like, so they've been doing this for a little while. 151 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: Your yours was much more funnier than mine. No, well, 152 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: there's nothing great about waking up with the Jonas brothers 153 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: in your bedroom. Someone just sent a text and it says, hi, Jake, 154 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: tense up, Yes, tense up, Yeah here they come, tense up. 155 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: Love him. 156 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 3: Oh my god, can you just see what people right in? 157 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: Yes? Good and bad. Oh I've only read the good 158 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: stuff on there so far. It's awesome. But you know 159 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: what this, how many people listening, how many people in 160 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: this room grew up depending on your imagination to be 161 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: your best friend. 162 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 3: I know that was me, right, I know I was like, 163 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 3: am I schizophrenic? Or what's happening? Because it was so 164 00:07:58,280 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 3: active in my head? 165 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: But I wasn't obviously, But obviously something great came out 166 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: of that imagination because now you're influencing millions of people. 167 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: They're watching these things. To you, this isn't work. I mean, 168 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: is this like a day at the office for you 169 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: when you like you do your your content and. 170 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 3: Like yeah, I mean I like wake up and I 171 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 3: think about, Okay, well I have to go through all 172 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 3: the comments and I have to cause a lot of 173 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 3: it takes a lot of like thinking because you have 174 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 3: to think about, like what's the punchline? How am I 175 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 3: gonna make this funny? Because at first it was really 176 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 3: easy because it was just okay, be you know yourself 177 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 3: five hundred years ago and dude whatever. But then that 178 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 3: can only last for so long, so then you start half. 179 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 3: You have to think of like punchlines and stuff. So like, 180 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 3: for example, like I did this one the other day 181 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 3: where it was like, uh, like do tomato finding out 182 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 3: it wasn't a fruit or something, and I sat there 183 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 3: for like an hour and I was like, Okay, I 184 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 3: got it, Like I'm veggie fluid. So that's like just 185 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 3: like stuff like that, Like it'll I'll be like okay, 186 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 3: and then like let's go. 187 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: But tomatoes are fruits. 188 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 3: No, they're veggie fluid. No, they're fruits veggie fluid. 189 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: Well I need to see this when So you get 190 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: the idea and then you produce it. When do we 191 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: see it? How fast can you roll it out? Probably 192 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: like a minute after I do it? See So it's 193 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 1: not like you someone who writes a TV show then 194 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: they get the actress together than the production teams and 195 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: they block it. No, it's immediate. It's the same in 196 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: the music business Jonas brothers. Can you imagine if they went, 197 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: let's just write this song and five minutes later they 198 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: give it to the world. Right, they don't do it 199 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: that way? 200 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 3: Right? 201 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: You do? And it's it's it's is this the business? 202 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: Is this what you want to do for the rest 203 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: of your life or what do you see this merging 204 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 1: into for you? 205 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 3: You know, I really I was always so passionate about 206 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 3: acting as a kid and making people laugh and like 207 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 3: performing on stage.

And I I love your story 283 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: because it's a story that we all sort of have 284 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: in us, but maybe we haven't acted on it yet. 285 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: And that's to be creative, To trust your head, and 286 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: living in your head is not always something you have 287 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: to see a therapist for. Sometimes living in a theist 288 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: do you sometimes think you should? Oh no, I'm starting 289 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: next week. 290 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 3: I know we. 291 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: Sometimes mental health is such an important part of our lives. 292 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: I get that, but sometimes, you know, reading our signs 293 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: in our head don't always mean that we have a 294 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: problem and we're sick or ill. It also means we 295 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: have things in there that need to get out. And yeah, 296 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 1: maybe creative. 297 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 3: I just have a lot of things in my head 298 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 3: that want to constantly come out, and so TikTok kind 299 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 3: of allows a really creative and funny outlet for it 300 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 3: to come out and have a lot of people laugh 301 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 3: at it, which is amazing. 302 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: So people are wondering, can they just quit their jobs 303 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: and start putting content online and feed their family afore. 304 00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 3: Like, I don't know, you know, it's so interesting because 305 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 3: TikTok feels all social media success always feels so slippery 306 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 3: and so fleeting. So I would never I feel like, 307 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 3: I don't know, I would never. I'm so grateful that 308 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 3: I can still work every day because it takes away 309 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 3: a part of the anxiety and a part of the 310 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 3: pressure to constantly churn out like the most amazing stuff. 311 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 3: You know, it's like social media, social media as it 312 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 3: just feels like such a gamble all the time. You know, 313 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 3: you're like really betting on yourself. 314 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: Now do all of your friends who are influencers as well, 315 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: do they agree with that statement or do they some 316 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: feels like not, this is it. This is the cyber currency. 317 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 3: I honestly think it just changes on person and person. 318 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 3: I think the reason I feel that way is just 319 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 3: because I'm anxious to begin with. So I'm always anxious 320 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 3: about being forgotten or things going away. So like you 321 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 3: put that like times a million, because now you're like 322 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 3: on social media and it almost feels like you're like 323 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 3: writing a permanent reputation for yourself, which is always scary. 324 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 3: But yeah, I don't know. I just know I feel 325 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 3: that way, but I've never really talked about that. 326 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 1: See that line again, you're writing for yourself.
