All right, I waited 0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:59.120 thirty eight weeks for a one wear pair of shoes, 0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:00.439 and now I feel very wasteful. 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:02.840 But speaking of shoes, very quickly, I thought you'd be 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:05.440 impressed with this, Danielle. So Susan took it upon herself 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:07.319 for my birthday this year, and they just happened to 0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:09.360 be next to me to buy me my first ever 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:10.760 pair of dunks. 0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:14.000 Ooh wow. 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:16.400 So she got me the green ones and I had 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:18.200 to I don't know if he told you, but I 0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:22.000 had to text producer Jensen Karr, husband of this podcast, 0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:24.560 to ask how to tie them properly? Oh, if I 0:09:24.640 --> 0:09:26.040 was just supposed to tie them, if I was supposed 0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:27.560 to slip them on, And he sent me a YouTube 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:29.199 video about how I was supposed to do it. 0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:32.280 Yeah, I need I actually need help with lacing. Lacing too. 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:34.560 There is an art to lacing. And my feet are 0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:38.319 pretty small, and so I have to like if I 0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:40.920 if I can't most of my laces, I have to 0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:43.320 tie in a bow because if I let them dangle, 0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:45.839 I step on them. But there is like a time 0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:48.560 I know there's there's also there's an art to lacing. 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.960 I recently did a video about my shoes because I 0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:55.640 love shoes, and one of the very sweet comments and 0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:58.199 there was, all right, now, let's teach my good sis 0:09:58.200 --> 0:10:00.880 how to lace, and I was like, you know, I 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:02.880 don't have I don't have that much time. I'm really 0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:04.640 just grabbing a pair of shoes, sliding them all my 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:05.600 feet and running out the door. 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:07.160 That's what Jensen at the end of the day kind 0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:09.360 of said. He's like, just tie them and go Okay, 0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:10.360 that's probably the best. 0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:13.080 Time, But those are great.

I'm always impressed. 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:25.520 We should go all go shopping together at them all. 0:10:25.720 --> 0:10:26.960 I think that'd be a ton of fun. 0:10:27.040 --> 0:10:31.280 Yeah, that's a good idea.

But there's so many elements of 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:34.120 the show besides the show. That just made it a 0:14:34.160 --> 0:14:39.720 wonderful experience. All the writers, Michael, the cast, the stories, 0:14:39.840 --> 0:14:42.800 the scripts. It's just it was a wonderful, wonderful show. 0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:46.400 Wow. I love that.

So 0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:10.040 the only one of the four of us here who's 0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:10.560 done them all. 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:14.040 Was yeah, wow, so cool, so cool. 0:15:14.640 --> 0:15:18.280 Now, we know many of our listeners and most of 0:15:18.280 --> 0:15:22.880 our hosts probably uh don't really know exactly what goes 0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:25.960 into sound mixing and re recording. So let's start with that. 0:15:26.200 --> 0:15:28.600 What is it exactly? What is the process. 0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:33.240 Well, when when they shoot the show, then the editor 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:36.640 picture editor gets all the all the takes, everything puts 0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:40.360 together the show and includes the sound that goes with 0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:44.280 each one of those takes. Then I get that and 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:48.600 my editor's dialogue editor will go through and clean everything up. 0:15:49.320 --> 0:15:51.840 Sound effects editor goes in and adds all the sounds 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:54.239 that we need. I get the music from the composer, 0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:57.960 and then I mix all those elements, including a laugh track. 0:15:58.600 --> 0:16:00.680 The laugh guy comes in and there is a laugh guy, 0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:03.120 I believe it or not. He comes in and laughs, 0:16:03.400 --> 0:16:06.000 and that's how we that's how we do the show. 0:16:06.040 --> 0:16:09.280 And then Michael and and everybody would come in and 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:11.480 we play it back and he gives notes and then 0:16:11.480 --> 0:16:11.880 they leave. 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:17.200 Hold on a minute, there's a laugh guy. 0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:18.920 There is a laugh guy. 0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:24.920 Okay, okay, they pay they pay a guy to laugh, 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:27.520 and does he come in and do different laughs? 0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:31.760 Well, he has a machine that has laughs. Okay himself. 0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:33.480 I thought there was a guy just sitting in front 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:39.000 of the microphone. Thought different. 0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:43.920 More than it's way more than sixty laughs. He has 0:16:43.960 --> 0:16:48.520 libraries from many different stages, very many different shows, because 0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:50.640 you know, like Boy Meets World would have a younger 0:16:50.800 --> 0:16:56.680 sounding audience, you know, older audiences, African American audiences, you know, 0:16:56.800 --> 0:17:00.520 just all sorts of different choices. So yeah, wow, that's 0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:02.360 a whole that's a whole thing into itself. 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:04.439 That will and then probably combinations of that. So we 0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:09.280 need young African American, we need older Wow, that's crazy. 0:17:09.400 --> 0:17:11.600 Michael would often say, oh, I want to hear I 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:13.080 want to hear a woman laugh there. 0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:19.320 You know, or like different oos like this should be 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:22.399 this should be a playful. 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.560 So did they add some of the audience. 0:17:27.880 --> 0:17:30.520 No, Actually, Michael is too fond of the woze. If 0:17:30.520 --> 0:17:32.800 it was real and they really you really earned it, 0:17:32.800 --> 0:17:35.240 then yes, but he wouldn't necessarily add to it. But 0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:38.280 this is my favorite laugh note of all time. Do 0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:44.080 you have a sad laugh? A sad lad from Michael 0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:47.879 from another show? But it was like no, I don't. 0:17:48.280 --> 0:17:48.760 Oh wow. 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:51.280 There was the one ask for that never happened was 0:17:51.320 --> 0:17:52.040 the sad laugh. 0:17:52.119 --> 0:17:54.520 And here's I think, will could you do a sad level? 0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:54.760 Here? 0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:56.080 I was just gonna say, well, could do it from 0:17:56.080 --> 0:18:02.280 a Will cool? A sad laugh would be like, you know, yes, 0:18:02.920 --> 0:18:04.080 pretty pretty darn good. 0:18:04.240 --> 0:18:06.840 The trailing off is what gives it away where I'm 0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:07.840 actually bummed about this. 0:18:08.320 --> 0:18:11.680 And the other best laugh note, second best was h 0:18:11.880 --> 0:18:14.679 It was the scene was in sort of mid Middle 0:18:14.720 --> 0:18:19.080 Ages medieval and they said the laugh didn't match the wardrobe. 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:25.600 Oh my hand, we need that laugh to sound like 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:26.960
