<v Speaker 2>this New Girl universe. I'm here right with you.

<v Speaker 1>Thank you so much.

0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:42.440
<v Speaker 2>We got so many emails coming in. It is always

0:00:42.440 --> 0:00:44.240
<v Speaker 2>hard to choose what makes the Loft Meeting.

0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:44.800

<v Speaker 2>it in, you will hear your question live here on

0:00:52.000 --> 0:00:57.320
<v Speaker 2>the pod. Okay, let's start with our first email, says

0:00:57.640 --> 0:00:59.360
<v Speaker 2>hi Hand on La Morn. I'm a little behind on

0:00:59.400 --> 0:01:01.920
<v Speaker 2>the podcast and working to get caught up, but I

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:06.039
<v Speaker 2>just heard Hannah mention the season finale song Rivers and

0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:08.280
<v Speaker 2>Roads and a Loft Meeting and wanted to share a

0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:14.800
<v Speaker 2>quick story that song Rivers and Roots. I love it

0:01:14.959 --> 0:01:18.200
<v Speaker 2>so much. I love it so much. I think I

0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:22.760
<v Speaker 2>talked about this on the podcast, that I fell in

0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 2>love with that song and.

0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:27.039
<v Speaker 1>Twofold.

0:01:27.120 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 2>It was not supposed to be the finale song. They

0:01:29.760 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 2>wanted a different song, but some huge show at the

0:01:33.080 --> 0:01:36.840
<v Speaker 2>time had just used it for their finale. Whatever the

0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:40.760
<v Speaker 2>alternate song was, Aaron O'Malley would know, and then they

0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:43.440
<v Speaker 2>ended up with Rivers and Roads, which made me so happy.

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:45.120
<v Speaker 1>They're like, have you heard of this song? And I

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:46.959
<v Speaker 1>was like, I have. It's one of my favorite songs ever.

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:52.200
<v Speaker 2>And then I used to work with an organization called

0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Free the Children and they had these big events for

0:01:56.080 --> 0:02:00.440
<v Speaker 2>youth all over the country called Wee Days, and they

0:02:00.480 --> 0:02:04.400
<v Speaker 2>had the band perform their Head and the Heart perform

0:02:04.680 --> 0:02:06.560
<v Speaker 2>and I got to introduce the band and they played

0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:09.000
<v Speaker 2>that song and it was like this weird full circle

0:02:09.040 --> 0:02:12.600
<v Speaker 2>moment where I got to introduce that band on stage. Anyway,

0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:16.600
<v Speaker 2>back to the email, the tangent I just went on

0:02:16.639 --> 0:02:18.840
<v Speaker 2>for Rivers and Roads. My husband and I met our

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:21.840
<v Speaker 2>bestest friends while in grad school in Kansas City circa

0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:25.040
<v Speaker 2>twenty thirteen. We were all poor, so the two things

0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:27.720
<v Speaker 2>we did together were playboard games and watch New Girl.

0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:30.600
<v Speaker 2>We watched the Story of the fifty each time one

0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:34.000
<v Speaker 2>of us turned twenty nine, and still send New Girl memes, quotes,

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:37.280
<v Speaker 2>and gifts to our group chat. We moved to the

0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Northeast from you know, I just want to say this

0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:42.520
<v Speaker 2>out loud. I don't know how many times I've asked

0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:47.160
<v Speaker 2>the questions of its gifts or jiffs. Jeffs sounds insane

0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:51.560
<v Speaker 2>to me, So I say gifts or men. Whoever tells

0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:55.520
<v Speaker 2>me like it's this way, and I promptly forget because

0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:57.800
<v Speaker 2>one just does not sound right coming out of my mouth.

0:02:58.080 --> 0:02:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:00.519
<v Speaker 2>We moved to the Northeast from more Rad School in

0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:04.040
<v Speaker 2>twenty sixteen, and they followed just a few short states

0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:06.400
<v Speaker 2>away that same year. We're so grateful that we got

0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:08.160
<v Speaker 2>to live within a two hour drive of them for

0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:10.880
<v Speaker 2>almost ten years. In twenty twenty one, they were waiting

0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:14.639
<v Speaker 2>to adopt a baby. Oh and my baby, and my baby,

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 2>and my husband was finishing his PhD program and applying

0:03:17.919 --> 0:03:21.160
<v Speaker 2>for jobs all around the country. Change and transition were

0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:21.720
<v Speaker 2>in the air.

0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 1>This is beautifully written.

0:03:23.400 --> 0:03:25.920
<v Speaker 2>We were committed to maintaining our strong friendship no matter

0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:29.360
<v Speaker 2>what changes the future, no matter what changes the future brought,

0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:33.120
<v Speaker 2>so we decided to mark the friendship with themed rivers

0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:34.680
<v Speaker 2>and roads tattoos.

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh, you guys know, I love a tattoo story.

0:03:38.160 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 2>That song is all about living away from your best

0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:42.920
<v Speaker 2>friends and family, and how it will take rivers and

0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:46.120
<v Speaker 2>roads to reach each other. Once again, the tattoos all

0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:48.400
<v Speaker 2>look a bit different, but they all have a rivers

0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:51.800
<v Speaker 2>and roads component. Our friends still live in New Hampshire

0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:54.680
<v Speaker 2>and we landed in Idaho, but we've stayed close and

0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:56.720
<v Speaker 2>have committed to seeing each other at least once in

0:03:56.760 --> 0:04:00.200
<v Speaker 2>person each year. In twenty twenty two, my husband, who

0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:06.040
<v Speaker 2>is a theologian Ooh, baptized They're adopted twins, which brought

0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:11.080
<v Speaker 2>us even closer. Thankful for the part New Girl played

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:14.760
<v Speaker 2>in the early days of our lasting friendship. Do either

0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:17.760
<v Speaker 2>of you have any tattoos, or better yet, have matching

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 2>theme tattoos with someone else? Laura, Laura, this may be

0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:27.760
<v Speaker 2>one of my favorite emails. Man, what a beautiful bonding

0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:31.599
<v Speaker 2>with our show, What a beautiful friendship you have. And

0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:35.720
<v Speaker 2>then to be involved in the baptizing of their babies,

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:39.920
<v Speaker 2>to do something on your body that will be a

0:04:40.000 --> 0:04:47.240
<v Speaker 2>forever reminder to nourish and encourage that friendship. And even

0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:50.120
<v Speaker 2>then with a question that's interesting that we haven't been

0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 2>asked on the show. Five stars, Laura, five stars, five

0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:58.039
<v Speaker 2>stars love this. I have zero tattoos, and it is

0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:02.800
<v Speaker 2>not for lack of want of one. I love tattoos.

0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:05.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm also the person I think I've been to. I

0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:08.760
<v Speaker 2>don't even know fifty tattoo parlors in my life because

0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 2>when friends of mine have gone to get tattoos, I'm

0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:13.320
<v Speaker 2>a good hang.

0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:14.480
<v Speaker 1>I'll come and.

0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Sit seven hour session, no problem. I'll come and sit

0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:19.479
<v Speaker 2>and talk and chat and hang out with you while

0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:23.320
<v Speaker 2>you get your tattoo. So I've been too many and

0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:29.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm always toying. But my problem is I have difficulty

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:37.800
<v Speaker 2>committing to something that's permanent. So it's very difficult for me.

0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:39.719
<v Speaker 2>I think the only thing I've ever done where I

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:41.520
<v Speaker 2>was like, I'm gonna do it and it felt really

0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:47.120
<v Speaker 2>permanent and big was cutting my bangs in two thousand

0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:50.400
<v Speaker 2>and eight. I was like, oh god, I'd always had

0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:51.880
<v Speaker 2>long hair all the same length, and I was like,

0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:55.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing this thing and getting it to grow back

0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:57.800
<v Speaker 2>would take years, and it worked out. So maybe I

0:05:57.800 --> 0:06:00.680
<v Speaker 2>should have that attitude towards a tattoo because I just

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:02.279
<v Speaker 2>have to pick one that's my thing. I also have

0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:04.840
<v Speaker 2>to pick one, and it feels like, wow, that's such

0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:08.279
<v Speaker 2>a huge decision. But man, you guys had clarity on

0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:11.000
<v Speaker 2>what tattoo. And it was also cool that it's not

0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:14.560
<v Speaker 2>like exact matching like you guys just thematically agreed on

0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:16.760
<v Speaker 2>what was important and they did what was right for you.

0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:20.080
<v Speaker 2>I want to see pictures of the tattoo, Laura. Can

0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:22.600
<v Speaker 2>you send an email in with pictures so we can

0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:25.479
<v Speaker 2>we can put them up so people can see.

0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:27.640
<v Speaker 1>I'd be oh my god, there is pictures. I didn't

0:06:27.640 --> 0:06:36.120
<v Speaker 1>scroll down get out of town. Oh these are great.

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh I love them. Oh.

0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:41.880
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait for everybody who's just listening to be

0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:44.560
<v Speaker 2>able to see these awesome tattoos.

0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:48.560
<v Speaker 1>That's so cool. What a special friendship. I love that

0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:51.120
<v Speaker 1>so much. Thank you for watching the show.

0:06:51.120 --> 0:07:03.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm so happy I met so much to you. All right,

0:07:03.480 --> 0:07:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Moving on Alex from Tampa, Florida. Hi, Hannah Lamar, And

0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:10.000
<v Speaker 2>first I want to say thank you for creating this show.

0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:13.280
<v Speaker 2>I regularly watched the series, but it's been but it's

0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:15.080
<v Speaker 2>been so much more fun getting to do it with

0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:17.800
<v Speaker 2>you guys. It really made me slow down and appreciate

0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:21.760
<v Speaker 2>each episode for their unique qualities, which brings me to Dice.

0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:25.080
<v Speaker 2>Dice is a funny episode that tends to just pass

0:07:25.160 --> 0:07:27.560
<v Speaker 2>by in my regular watches, but this timm around, I

0:07:27.600 --> 0:07:30.960
<v Speaker 2>was thinking a lot about what a time capsule this

0:07:31.040 --> 0:07:31.720
<v Speaker 2>episode is.

0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:32.840
<v Speaker 1>Yes, people still.

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Date online, but at least for my generation Z Like

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:39.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't have friends who use Grinder or Tinder or any.

0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:40.680
<v Speaker 1>Of those other hookup apps.

0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:43.600
<v Speaker 2>It's got me thinking what each of the loft mates

0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:46.880
<v Speaker 2>accounts ooh would look like. I think Nick would have

0:07:46.960 --> 0:07:49.160
<v Speaker 2>his favorite drink and just have girls me and him

0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:51.040
<v Speaker 2>at the bar when he got off work. All of

0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:53.640
<v Speaker 2>Schmid's photos would be of him in suits, maybe a

0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:56.880
<v Speaker 2>photoshop photoshop image of him standing next to a famous person.

0:07:57.360 --> 0:08:00.560
<v Speaker 2>Winston would have the cutest photos and like facts to

0:08:00.600 --> 0:08:05.160
<v Speaker 2>jumpstart conversations. What would CEC have in her dating profile?

0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Ooh, Alex, what a good question.

0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:14.160
<v Speaker 2>What would CEC have? Here's the thing, I'm the worst

0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:18.640
<v Speaker 2>person to ask, because I've never had an online dating profile.

0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:21.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if I've ever seen one, so I.

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Don't know what people usually put up.

0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:28.480
<v Speaker 2>I feel like the joke would be on the show

0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:30.920
<v Speaker 2>that she would just have like one picture that's kind

0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:31.160
<v Speaker 2>of like.

0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Far away and not even that cute, and then she'd

0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:40.880
<v Speaker 1>get swiped on. I don't think CEC's.

0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:45.680
<v Speaker 2>Very into like trying hard to get male attention or

0:08:45.720 --> 0:08:46.480
<v Speaker 2>female attention.

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:49.280
<v Speaker 1>So I think that would be it. She would do the.

0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:53.040
<v Speaker 2>Bare minimum and it probably just work out fine for her.

0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:54.880
<v Speaker 2>But I don't know, because, like I said, I've never

0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:58.800
<v Speaker 2>really seen dating profile all the stuff you're supposed to

0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:02.440
<v Speaker 2>put in there, I guess, But great question. I feel

0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:05.120
<v Speaker 2>like Lamurn would probably have a better answer. That would

0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 2>probably destroy me, all right, Moving on, Thanks alex U. Ooh,

0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:13.840
<v Speaker 2>this is from someone called Simone.

0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh No, I love a Simone. Hey, it's got a

0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:21.120
<v Speaker 1>lot of wyes. Hey, omg.

0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:25.600
<v Speaker 2>The world understandably has become a really scary place in

0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:28.480
<v Speaker 2>the last four months or so. I work as a

0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:31.480
<v Speaker 2>mentor to high school students. I'm a sophomore in college.

0:09:31.840 --> 0:09:34.960
<v Speaker 2>Mostly i'm a sounding bored about their issues with their parents,

0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:38.080
<v Speaker 2>and I make sure they've spelled checked their essays. But

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:39.960
<v Speaker 2>as we reach the end of the school year, a

0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:43.439
<v Speaker 2>lot of kids are panicking. Understandably, they're worried about their

0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:46.160
<v Speaker 2>friends and families. We live near the border. I keep

0:09:46.200 --> 0:09:48.880
<v Speaker 2>telling them we're not helpless, that the communities care about them,

0:09:48.880 --> 0:09:51.400
<v Speaker 2>that I care, But I feel like a fraud. I'm

0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:55.560
<v Speaker 2>scared too empty words and platitudes feel hollow. I don't

0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:57.320
<v Speaker 2>know what else to do but try to assure them

0:09:57.320 --> 0:09:59.960
<v Speaker 2>that people are still fighting. What I do know is

0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:03.320
<v Speaker 2>that New Girl has been a constant comfort. This podcast

0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:05.960
<v Speaker 2>has been a constant comfort. It's hard not to look

0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:08.280
<v Speaker 2>at the news. It is important for me to stay informed.

0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:10.960
<v Speaker 2>But when I've reached my limit, I can always visit

0:10:11.000 --> 0:10:12.840
<v Speaker 2>the loft and escape into our world, where at the

0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:14.840
<v Speaker 2>end of the day, everything is going to be okay

0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:18.319
<v Speaker 2>because your friends love you, and that love is enough. Sorry,

0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:20.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm tired and this is a bit rambling. I guess

0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:22.800
<v Speaker 2>I just want to say thank you for providing a

0:10:22.880 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 2>reprieve in a dark world.

0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for the.

0:10:25.360 --> 0:10:28.840
<v Speaker 2>Long nights you guys been sharing a trailer. I know

0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:31.160
<v Speaker 2>making the series was fun, but it also sounds like

0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:33.880
<v Speaker 2>it was real work. I'm reminded that we don't have

0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:36.400
<v Speaker 2>to save the world if we just protect one another.

0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:40.079
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes protection is just being able to laugh in difficult times.

0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:45.760
<v Speaker 2>Thank you both for being protectors. Love Simone, Oh, Simone,

0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:46.559
<v Speaker 2>that's so kind.

0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:47.679
<v Speaker 1>I will say.

0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:53.040
<v Speaker 2>It is the thing that now I get stopped the

0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:55.560
<v Speaker 2>most about and people want to talk to me about

0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:58.439
<v Speaker 2>with this show. Initially, when the show was on the air,

0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:01.040
<v Speaker 2>you know, people would stay and it was just like

0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Czi take Schmidt back, or you know, quoting funny lines.

0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.040
<v Speaker 2>Those where like much more at my interactions I had

0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:13.640
<v Speaker 2>with people that loved the show. And what's interesting to

0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 2>me now is I still get stopped a lot and

0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:20.480
<v Speaker 2>people want to talk about the show, but they talk

0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:23.679
<v Speaker 2>about things like what you just shared. They talk about.

0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:26.360
<v Speaker 1>How the show has.

0:11:26.280 --> 0:11:31.840
<v Speaker 2>Been there for them during hard times when they need comfort,

0:11:32.559 --> 0:11:39.920
<v Speaker 2>to escape someplace where they're reminded of chosen family, and

0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:44.960
<v Speaker 2>how we don't always have to get along, but we

0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:48.280
<v Speaker 2>have to love each other and show up when it

0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:49.600
<v Speaker 2>really matters.

0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:53.800
<v Speaker 1>And it's really a lot of people. It's interesting.

0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:55.800
<v Speaker 2>I feel like it's like the two ends of life,

0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:58.040
<v Speaker 2>or the two points of life that kind of meet

0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:02.360
<v Speaker 2>in that circle of life. A lot of time, when

0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 2>people are having babies, when they're pregnant, they put this

0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:07.280
<v Speaker 2>show on and they watch a lot of this show,

0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:10.439
<v Speaker 2>or right after they've given birth and they're just kind

0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:12.280
<v Speaker 2>of in the bed with the baby all the time.

0:12:12.880 --> 0:12:14.120
<v Speaker 1>This is the show they watch.

0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:17.880
<v Speaker 2>And then on the flip when someone has lost somebody

0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:20.319
<v Speaker 2>and they don't really want to go out into the world,

0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:24.320
<v Speaker 2>yet they're still processing their grief. This seems to be

0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:26.480
<v Speaker 2>a show that people like to put on to comfort

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:34.200
<v Speaker 2>them then. And I appreciate that so much because I

0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.120
<v Speaker 2>have shows like that. La More and has shows like

0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:41.840
<v Speaker 2>that that you just put on and it feels like family.

0:12:44.120 --> 0:12:46.760
<v Speaker 1>It's amazing that New Girls was able to do that, right.

0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:47.240
<v Speaker 1>It's funny.

0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:48.959
<v Speaker 2>You know, you book a show a job and it's

0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:51.439
<v Speaker 2>a comedy, it's like super silly, and you know, you

0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:54.280
<v Speaker 2>think of the pilot with Ceci where she's just sort

0:12:54.280 --> 0:12:57.720
<v Speaker 2>of like with her you know, like the line about

0:12:57.760 --> 0:13:00.280
<v Speaker 2>the party hats, and you just go like, what this

0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:01.920
<v Speaker 2>good is this going to do in the world?

0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:03.040
<v Speaker 1>This crazy silly show.

0:13:03.040 --> 0:13:04.680
<v Speaker 2>Like it's a funny show and it's really good, but

0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:06.240
<v Speaker 2>what good is it going to do in the world?

0:13:06.840 --> 0:13:10.760
<v Speaker 2>And what I've learned is it's done like a lot

0:13:10.800 --> 0:13:13.880
<v Speaker 2>of good. It's shown up for people when they didn't

0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:17.440
<v Speaker 2>want to be with people, when they wanted to just

0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:21.360
<v Speaker 2>be able to dissolve into a space where they didn't

0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:23.679
<v Speaker 2>have to think and they could just feel like that

0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:26.320
<v Speaker 2>warm hug and they knew it would make them laugh

0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:28.360
<v Speaker 2>and they didn't have to do any work around it,

0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:33.280
<v Speaker 2>and that's important, and it's only because I feel like

0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:36.680
<v Speaker 2>the fans of New Girls are so awesome and they're

0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:41.800
<v Speaker 2>so tuned in to themselves and vulnerable and brave. I mean,

0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:47.320
<v Speaker 2>the stories that have been shared with me is such

0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:50.680
<v Speaker 2>a reflection I just feel like of how we truly

0:13:50.720 --> 0:13:54.120
<v Speaker 2>do have the best fans in the world. So thank

0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:56.160
<v Speaker 2>you for sharing. Thank you for all the work that

0:13:56.200 --> 0:13:58.840
<v Speaker 2>you're doing and showing up for people. And I'm glad

0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:02.600
<v Speaker 2>that you have a place and space that you can

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:11.200
<v Speaker 2>go and sit and feel comforted and laugh and feel

0:14:11.200 --> 0:14:15.640
<v Speaker 2>that sense of TV family community. I'm happy about that,

0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:20.680
<v Speaker 2>So thank you, Simone. Okay, that's our show. That's our
