And I 255 00:13:55,800 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: think it's a helpful thing you sharing this experience, because again, 256 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: it adds further evidence to the idea that you know, 257 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 1: the solution to life's problems likely does not here I go. 258 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying some hippie ship that the solution to life's 259 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: problems does not lie in anything external. Yeah, but adds 260 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: on your podcast if if, if the solution to life's 261 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: problems doesn't lie in anything external, because I like buying 262 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: candy bars in bulk and eating all of them because 263 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 1: it helps me forget about my problems for a little bit. 264 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 3: Well, I just wanted to say thank you.

Yeah, I'm up sick because I want 288 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 6: to be your friends in like a real life, genuine 289 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 6: human chicken on each other way. But I understand that 290 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 6: that's like a parasocial friends fantasy because you I I 291 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 6: like the portrayal you put forward of yourself on the internet. 292 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: It's true, it's true. Is that it? I don't know 293 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: if you're done talking? 294 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 6: Yes, yeah, that's it. 295 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: See it's interesting. I've I barely even I barely even 296 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: hang out with my own with my friends in real life. 297 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: To be honest, I guess I don't. I don't do 298 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: friends the way that most people do. Maybe I don't 299 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: know if that's true. No, that's probably not true. But anyway, 300 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: let's see, you want to be friends with me, but 301 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 1: you feel as though it is it is impossible. Well like, okay, 302 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 1: you live in New Zealand, right. 303 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 3: Do Yeah? 304 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: See you know, look, I feel like I'm I'm not 305 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: a good like. I think the fantasy that we would 306 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 1: text each other all the time and like, you know, 307 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: be really major parts of each other's lives is almost 308 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 1: certainly not going to happen. But I don't know. If 309 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 1: I go to New Zealand, it's un realistic. But if 310 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: I go to New Zealand, I do a show, I'm 311 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 1: hanging out afterwards. You know, maybe maybe we'd hang out. 312 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: I could hang out with anyone, because hanging out is 313 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,919 Speaker 1: like a it's an easy or real commitment. There like 314 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: I can't be in your life and I can't even 315 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: promise you i'd hang out with you because you live 316 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: in New Zealand's but I'm thinking my head. If I 317 00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: ever went to New Zealand, I did a show, was 318 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,880 Speaker 1: hanging out at the bar afterwards, we did a whole thing. 319 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: We could hang out. We could have a genuine human 320 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: conversation with each other. I could see that happening. I 321 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 1: would be I would enjoy that. Actually that would be fun. 322 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: But no, there's no I don't think that we would 323 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: become any sort of close lasting friends, even if you 324 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: are for many reasons, not had many many reasons that 325 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 1: have nothing to that have nothing at all to do 326 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 1: with who you are as a person. Does that make sense? 327 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, Like, even just logistically, it's not a match made 328 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 6: in heaven. I think I think the the just meeting 329 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 6: and having a human conversation would probably satisfy you was crazy. 330 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: A lot you could you could be like the perfect 331 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 1: kind of dude that I would be friends with, and 332 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: we still I still wouldn't.
