So that's kind of great because I 438 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: gotta tell you, that'll be so much easier than just 439 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: making a thirty for thirty thirty because the thirty for 440 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: thirty they're fun. I had a ball making when the 441 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 1: garden was even so much the entire radio community. No, 442 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: it'll be easier because because you won't need because so 443 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 1: much of the budget goes Like I did a document 444 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: of the tape. Can you get there? Because you're talking 445 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 1: about it but you can't see it, and so so 446 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 1: the film. The ESPN films folks who are part of 447 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 1: this are really excited and I am too, because there's 448 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: so many stories they can't tell because there's no tape. 449 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: Someone comes to them it's like, Oh, I have this 450 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: great idea to do this story of like this fight 451 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: that happened in the locker room twenty years That's what 452 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: I'm saying. You could do more smaller stories. It doesn't 453 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: have to be just about you know the that's so 454 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: good to hear. So, so your your podcast is a 455 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 1: political podcast on the thirty third network. I'm sorry on 456 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: the sport. I only worked places that have numbers, So 457 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: it's really five thirty eight is Nates Over's website and 458 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: it is owned by of all places, ESPN. It's one 459 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 1: of these sort of affiliate sites. You got you there's 460 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: um The Undefeated, there's five thirty eight.

We do sports and culture and all 463 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: that stuff. But we have an elections podcast, which right 464 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 1: now there's plenty to talk about. So that's going and 465 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: it's you know, Nates on it. I'm on it, and uh, 466 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: Harry Anson and Claire Malone, two of our other writers 467 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 1: are on it, and we get together every week. And 468 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 1: so this is this political season for you guys been 469 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: almost like as as frustrating frustrating as it's been um 470 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: as as as somebody that's you know, doing podcasts and 471 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: doing journalism about it. It has to be so it 472 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: has to be like it's like a good meal. Every 473 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: single time some crazy shit happens, it has to be 474 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 1: a good meal. It is let me let me let 475 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 1: me think, how of phrases it is good grist for conversation. 476 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 1: I never even heard that word before. It is it 477 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 1: is like it keeps you on your toast. There's plenty 478 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: to talk about every time we sit down. It's like, 479 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: you know, there's a list of twenty things to talk about. 480 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: To get to fifteen of them, I will say, and 481 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,159 Speaker 1: this is the kind of more lovey lovey side of 482 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: me or whatever, But like issues, you know, like actual 483 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 1: substance has just not entered the conversation yet, and that 484 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: is a little frustrated with actual substance. Remember how elections 485 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: in the in the election because it's all about emails 486 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: and dues, tweets or insults or whatever, and so there's 487 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 1: plenty to talk about and and people are interested and 488 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,199 Speaker 1: so forth. But you know, for for months we've been like, Okay, 489 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,159 Speaker 1: at some point we're going to roll up our sleeves 490 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: and dive into the economic policy immigration. It turned into 491 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: it like a like a bad reality show in that way. 492 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: I got you, So, so let me ask you a question, 493 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: and you could be be totally honest if you had 494 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 1: the opportunity right now in this political climate to interview me. No, 495 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: I'm just kidding, to interview Hillary, Obama or Trump right now. 496 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: You could only get one, but you get them, and 497 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: you get them all access, ninety minutes, no questions off 498 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: the board. You had to pick one, Hillary D Trump 499 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 1: or Obama right now? Who would you pick? And I 500 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: think the obvious answer is that you would want to 501 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: interview Donald Trump. He's the most fascinating character right now. 502 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,719 Speaker 1: He's the one for whom I think we have a 503 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: lot of serious questions we have made official uh you know, 504 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: asks of all the candidates. But um, I can also 505 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: say Trump because it's probably safe to say he's not 506 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: going to come on our podcast. Okay, Okay, that that 507 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: makes sense. I mean, who would you want to interview 508 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: out of those three? I would say Trump because I 509 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 1: would I would because the thing that the thing about 510 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: Trump as far as politics is concerned, he is a 511 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 1: good ship talker, and he's a bully and and and 512 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 1: and he's a bully with his mouth and and and 513 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: and that would be something that I would be I 514 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 1: would be into bringing to him because you'd like to 515 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,400 Speaker 1: go to town because because like, my biggest concern about 516 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 1: Hillary debating him is that she's not like he's like 517 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: he's a he's in New York ship talking guy, you know, 518 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: and I'm a New York ship talking guy. And she 519 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 1: I would want to protect her. I feel like, you know, 520 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,479 Speaker 1: like i'd want to protect her. But as far as 521 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: like going at it with somebody, if I was informed, 522 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: like let's say you like, let somebody I had somebody 523 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: like you, like you're like my Mickey and I'm Rocky, 524 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: and your training and you're giving me all the questions. 525 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 1: If I had all like the real sort of hot 526 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: button question, i'd have to prepare. Yeah, But if I 527 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: was prepared, I'd want to get Trump because I want to. 528 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: I want to bring him to his knees verbally. Yeah. 529 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 1: And I think we're starting to see, you know. So 530 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: one of the big ongoing conversations has been like, did 531 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: that is the media letting Trump off the hook? Or 532 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: did the media caused Trump or whatever. I actually think 533 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: that the press has been pretty good. There's been some 534 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: really good investor good of reporting of Trump when he's 535 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 1: on like the Sunday shows. They're starting to ask substantive 536 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 1: questions of him. But he is just willing to cross 537 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: certain lines when it comes to truthfulness, uh, and just 538 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: saying what he feels expedient in that very moment that 539 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: other people just haven't crossed before. And so I think 540 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 1: the press is like in real time, learning how to 541 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: deal with the character like this. I agree, because he's 542 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: brought it down to car salesman, use car salesman level, 543 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: and and and and and again. You know, I'm I'm 544 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,679 Speaker 1: but there's a place you can't be presidential and be 545 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 1: talking that crazy ship that he talks just may reach it. 546 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 1: It may just change the definition of presidential right. That's 547 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: that's basically he's gotten this far. So you're right, well, 548 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,199 Speaker 1: so it changed the definition of what it means to 549 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: win a primary contested by sixteen different people. And eke 550 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 1: over the bar, which is, you know, we should put 551 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 1: that in car over the bar. He's he's flown over 552 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: the bar, well in the in the Look, here's one 553 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 1: of the ways I think about it. In order for 554 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: Trump to have been the nominee, there needed to have 555 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: been like, you know, it's like a Rube Goldberg kind 556 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: of like thing, like fifteen things needed to have gone 557 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,120 Speaker 1: perfectly right. I believe for him to have gotten through, 558 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: and fifteen of them did, and if only fourteen had 559 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: of them head then someone else would have gone through that. 560 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:23,199 Speaker 1: You know, there'll be plenty of dissertations and retrospectives on 561 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 1: what exactly those fifteen were, But I really do think 562 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: it was an incredibly narrow and winding path and he 563 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: happened to walk in. And that stuff happens, right, something 564 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 1: has a temper cent has happening means one every ten 565 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 1: times that's gonna happen, right, he that that makes sense 566 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: what's the big deal with Hillary and these fucking emails. 567 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: I don't give a shit about her emails. I could 568 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: give a shit about her emails. I don't care if listen, 569 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: we all do things on the low, we all hop 570 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: into the d MS, we all do weird shit. We 571 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: all got president who gives who cares? Like, you know, like, 572 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: what's the big deal? Like, what is the what is 573 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: the what is the political um the politically correct thing, 574 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: and what is the real big deal? Explain it to me, well, 575 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: I the way I think about it is is looking 576 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: at how the press is covering it. And I do 577 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: think right now there is an impulse among the press 578 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: to say Trump it's like as crazy as he is, 579 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: and I'm pressing in it as he is. It's to 580 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: some extent easy. Maybe he isn't isn't the right word, 581 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: but like the ways to cover him are apparent right there. 582 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: They're they're they're they're obvious, and there is a natural 583 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: impulse in the press to like even the score. And 584 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: I think journalists, for good reasons, feel a little antsie 585 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 1: when they're like, we're just attack, not attacking, We're just 586 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: interrogating one side of the lines. Right here, and so 587 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: I think that we've seen with Clinton there are there 588 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: is at times this notion of like, well, we gotta 589 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 1: go after her on certain things and things there are 590 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: things like the emails of the Clinton Foundation and so forth, 591 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 1: But there are legit questions to be asked. I actually 592 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 1: believe that, but sometimes you do, like you ask the 593 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: legit question and the answer is there's not much there, 594 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,239 Speaker 1: And the press needs to be willing with Trump and 595 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 1: with Clinton to be like, we looked into this, it's 596 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: not that big of a deal and we're gonna move on. 597 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: But Hillary Clinton has been very powerful, been a part 598 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:18,719 Speaker 1: of key important world changing decisions for decades. There's plenty 599 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: there to investigate, but it's tough to figure out when 600 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: the standards are so different. You know, all right, why 601 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: that makes sense. I appreciate the insight. I appreciate what 602 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: you're doing. I'm seriously seriously looking forward to the ESPN. 603 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: I can't wait. Do have you guys recorded any yet?

But it's gonna be 609 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 1: you know, we're giving ourselves a good amount of time, 610 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 1: six months or so. That's gonna be a huge hit. 611 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 1: And I'm excited that you guys are doing it.

You got any gold medals in your pockets? 660 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 1: You got dope shoes on? Like I don't have any 661 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: medals in my pocket. I have to gold medals and 662 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: a World Cup Championship. Where do you keep your World 663 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: Cup trophy? Um? Actually there's like one trophy that stays 664 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: at the US Soccer house. You don't do you do 665 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: they ever? Like you know, like the n tell guys 666 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: like get you like do you get a weekend with 667 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 1: the children? Wish? Actually I really wish that that were 668 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: the case. But we FIFA does this weird, weird thing 669 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 1: that they give you these little kind of jankety medals, 670 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 1: and I think the whole deal is like the World 671 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: Cup trophy is the thing, um I got you. Yeah, 672 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: it's not. It's not like the Olympics. I mean it's similar, 673 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 1: like World Championship win is like the Olympics, but it's 674 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 1: very different in terms of the way that they give 675 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: you hardware for what what aesthetically because I know, they 676 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: just sort of become things you get used to and 677 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: it's more about the experience aesthetically, which is your most 678 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,399 Speaker 1: like this is a cool trophire, this is a cool ring, 679 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 1: or this is a cool medal. I think that. I 680 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 1: think the Olympic gold medals are there's something about that 681 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:42,919 Speaker 1: because you know, when I was a kid, I didn't 682 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 1: really know what the FIFA World Cup was. But you 683 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: grow up watching the Olympics, both both summer and winter, 684 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 1: and it's just the thing that all athletes kind of 685 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 1: aspire to have. But then of course it's like where 686 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:56,359 Speaker 1: do you keep your gold medal? Right, And it's like 687 00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: your sock drawer, Like almost nine of Olympic fletes would 688 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: tell you that it's either that or it's like on 689 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: a frame above their socter. What did you think of 690 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: the Olympics? Uh, for the for the U S female team, 691 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:14,359 Speaker 1: I personally like the Uh. It just slipped in my mind. 692 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: The goaltender. You like Hope. I like Hope. I'll tell 693 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: you why. I like Hope. I want my goaltender talking ship. 694 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 1: I want my goaltender to be competitive. I want her 695 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 1: to be piste off that she lost. That's what I 696 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 1: would be like. Well, I think that, especially under those circumstances, 697 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,839 Speaker 1: anybody is going to be upset, you know, after the game. 698 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: But you do. All goalkeepers are a little bit they're 699 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: a little bit different, you know, Um, And you need 700 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: to have somebody who's willing to take the team's you know, 701 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 1: they're the last line of defense. So yeah, I hope 702 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 1: she's opinionated. She speaks her mind. Do I agree with 703 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: her all the time? No? Um, But that's something that 704 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 1: as a friend of hers, we've been able to like 705 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 1: work through over the many years of trial and error. 706 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:56,919 Speaker 1: Because you guys have grown up together like the girls 707 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: on these teams, I think you must meet each other 708 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 1: like they're. At a certain point, you become like the 709 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 1: elite team player and then the next go to the 710 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 1: next level, and you did the elite college player and 711 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 1: then so you must know these these girls that you 712 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: played with for years. Yeah, we've spent so much time 713 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: together that they become like your sister, you know. So 714 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 1: it's like you're not always going to get along with 715 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 1: your family members, and you're not gonna always agree with 716 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: the things that they do, but you're still going to 717 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,880 Speaker 1: respect them. And that's the most important thing that I hope. 718 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,240 Speaker 1: She was one of the best goalkeepers in the history 719 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: of this team for many many years and even in 720 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 1: the world. Um and and she added so much value 721 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 1: to to the team's growth and the team's winning capability. 722 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 1: Um do I agree with everything she does? Know, but 723 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 1: I bet she would probably say the same thing for me. 724 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 1: Do you think that she because as far as I know, 725 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,399 Speaker 1: forget the personal stuff, because I don't I do want 726 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 1: to talk about that. But but as far as I know, 727 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 1: do you think that she got an unfair you know, 728 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,479 Speaker 1: punishment like like like a male like like a male 729 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: athlete would have been punished as hard to say what 730 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 1: she said just at this US Olympics or is it 731 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 1: a culmination of it, Well, it's culmination of a lot 732 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 1: of things that happened behind the scenes. I think their coach, Jill, 733 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: just came out this last week stating that fact that, 734 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,720 Speaker 1: you know, after all the transgressions that have happened throughout 735 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 1: the time, that at least Jill has been the coach. 736 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,480 Speaker 1: You know, they sit in a in a room and 737 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,319 Speaker 1: they brainstorm and they say, Okay, here are your limitations. 738 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,760 Speaker 1: This is where you really and and if you step 739 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 1: outside of that's going to be repercussions and and and 740 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 1: that's kind of the thing that ended up happening with 741 00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:29,320 Speaker 1: Hope and um, you know, it's it's um, it's unfortunate 742 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: because she's she's been such a value to to our 743 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 1: team for so many years. But at some point your 744 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: coach has to make decisions that's going to be best 745 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: for the group and the whole moving forward. Okay, all right, 746 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 1: so we're at the upfront for for podcasting. Tell me 747 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 1: about your podcast? What is it? And and and and 748 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: uh like where is it now? Right now? So it's 749 00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: at the infancy stage. UM. I just started it. Retired 750 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 1: in December and have been pretty busy. I signed a 751 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 1: contract with ESPN and and the podcasting space is something 752 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,080 Speaker 1: that I'm really excited and passionate about our list and 753 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,440 Speaker 1: all the all the podcasts actually don't listen to yours. 754 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: M Why am I speaking to this woman? No offense, 755 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 1: I will now had um. But the truth is is 756 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: that my my podcast is called Fearless Conversation with Me 757 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: Abi Wanbach and UM. I think that there are so 758 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,879 Speaker 1: many opinions out there, uh, and then there's so many 759 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: haters that there's really no space to be able to 760 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,919 Speaker 1: agree to disagree on stuff. Right, So let's just take 761 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 1: this whole conversation. Right. There's gonna be a lot of 762 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 1: people that agree, and there's gonna be a lot of 763 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: people that disagree. But for me, we have to find 764 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 1: space within ourselves and each other that we have to 765 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 1: accept other other opinions and be okay with that, not 766 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 1: kill each other. Right, not like post all these horrible, hateful, 767 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: um dangerous things you know and irresponsible things in response 768 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: to somebody who doesn't believe the same things that you do. 769 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: That I think that's irresponsible and um, and so I 770 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 1: want my space to be a conversation and conversation about 771 00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,879 Speaker 1: kind of elephants in the room, things that are hard 772 00:38:59,920 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 1: to talk about because I actually like talking about her things. 773 00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:04,560 Speaker 1: I think it's important too. I think that the more 774 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: the more you get to the conversations that are uncomfortable, 775 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,399 Speaker 1: and that that that you might say the wrong thing, 776 00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 1: and you could say the wrong thing. It doesn't mean 777 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 1: you know we we we could agree to disagree, you 778 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 1: could say the wrong thing, we could believe the wrong thing. 779 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: But I think having the dialogue is important for sure. 780 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 1: I mean one of the things I now, listen, I'm 781 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: not gonna front abby, I'm not a humongous soccer fan. 782 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 1: But the biggest thing now is that the girl the 783 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 1: other day with the Colin Kaepernick. Think her last name 784 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 1: is Megan Repino? Yeah? Is it Repino or rapping? It's Repino? 785 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 1: Because I thought she maybe was trying to like just 786 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 1: disguise yourself to not be related to me in someone 787 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 1: because I'm rappaport To. All right, So it's Repino. So 788 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 1: what has been your take on that? Uh? And and 789 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: and and you know the backlash from it, I mean, 790 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 1: and and you know, just in the in the soccer community, 791 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: what is your take on I mean, there's a lot 792 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: of stuff going on, There's a lot of conversation, and 793 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 1: I think that's what both her and Colin we're trying 794 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:58,479 Speaker 1: to get out of it. Right. I believe that that 795 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,880 Speaker 1: as an American citizen, we all are allowed and feel 796 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 1: should feel free to exercise our right to protest. And 797 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 1: for me, it's been a it's been an evolution since 798 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 1: Colin didn't didn't stand for the national anthem at first, 799 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: because I'm so patriotic. I've value the American flag, i 800 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: value our national anthem because I've I've represented my country 801 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 1: for so many years. I like bleed, red, white and blue. 802 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 1: So it's really hard for me to understand and swallow 803 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 1: being even like the most liberal person. Maybe that I 804 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,239 Speaker 1: know that was hard for me. And so over the 805 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 1: past couple of weeks, since that's happened and even Megan's 806 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 1: um deal recently, it's made me. It's made me evolve, 807 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:40,440 Speaker 1: It's made me understand a little bit more. It's made 808 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 1: me want to have these conversations. And I think that 809 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 1: that's the point, whether you you agree or disagree with 810 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: their methods to get the conversation started. You know, I'm 811 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 1: kind of, you know, a Michelle Obama fan, where like 812 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 1: when they go low, I'm gonna go high. I like 813 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 1: to say, I like to say above that. You know, 814 00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 1: I don't want to put anything on blast to get 815 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 1: my point across. I don't want to throw anybody under 816 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 1: the bus. I don't want to do anything disrespectful. I 817 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: think that they're more positive and constructive ways to do it. 818 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,360 Speaker 1: But man, we're talking about it, you know, so I 819 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know what's right. I don't know 820 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,840 Speaker 1: what's wrong. I think the conversation is what's right, and 821 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: that's importing. What is I'm gonna let you go in 822 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 1: a minute.

Like? Holy shit? Um? I think Brazil 825 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 1: has a has an eclectic group of people. They know 826 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 1: the game and they they wish to see a totally 827 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:37,200 Speaker 1: different style of game than Americans or even Europeans play. 828 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: They like one v ones and fancy foot skills. Um. 829 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: But even even the whole of Europe, everybody understands the 830 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 1: game right. And in the US it's like when the 831 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 1: ball gets near our goal, everybody gets amped up. And 832 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: in Germany and in England and all these places, um 833 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 1: that no soccer that know how how the game is 834 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 1: supposed to be played. They value um little crafty things 835 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: and tactical play is and decisions that are made on 836 00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,360 Speaker 1: the field that that maybe like the person who's just 837 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: learning here in the United States is still trying to 838 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 1: figure out what what city is the most fun to 839 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 1: have off days in?

I will say Athens, Greece after my first 845 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 1: gold medal. I will say London in in in England 846 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: after my second gold medal. And then I will say, um, Vancouver, 847 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 1: Canada after the World Cup champions because I've never partied 848 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 1: so hard in my life. Okay, so it might not 849 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 1: necessarily be the city. Exactly now. You brought up the environment, okay, okay, 850 00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:46,399 Speaker 1: And it was in the exuberation of winnings. Exactly now. 851 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: You brought up Brazil. I've never been to Brazil. I 852 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: am fascinated with the women of Brazil. Are they everything 853 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:55,680 Speaker 1: that I could imagine? In more like if you go 854 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 1: to a seven eleven. Is there like a j Low 855 00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 1: working behind the seven lefl Right? No, so not everybody 856 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: it looks like Giselle. A lot of them do, A 857 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: lot of them do. But um, not everybody looks like Giselle. 858 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 1: And that's a little disappointing to be quite frank, because 859 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: because the hype is so yeah, you're expecting everyone to 860 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 1: look like you're expecting everybody like the homeless person, Like, 861 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 1: how could you like you should be here to be 862 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 1: a supermodeling.

I mean, I'm seeing you. 879 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 1: We've had some some of them are fantastic. I think 880 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 1: there's a handful of questions. Well, I'm like, if this 881 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 1: fucking guy could do a t AM I not doing it. 882 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 1: What do I got to I think that that's a 883 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:27,480 Speaker 1: really good question. I mean, you know, we've got scientists 884 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 1: from m I T We've got researchers who have like 885 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 1: decode of the genome, and I think it's I think 886 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 1: it's a good question. I mean, you don't have the answer. Guy, 887 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: That's fine, that's funny. All right, So so let me 888 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: ask you a question. We're first of all, well, second 889 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 1: of all, who the fund is Ted? Who is Ted? 890 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,839 Speaker 1: Ted is? Uh so so a lot of people think 891 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: I'm Ted Ted? Um? Ted is is technology entertainment design? 892 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 1: And so originally the conference was about anything to do 893 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,399 Speaker 1: with technology, entertainment and design, but it's become head over 894 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:01,959 Speaker 1: the years. So a lot of people ask this question. 895 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,840 Speaker 1: They say, who is who is this guy? Ted? I 896 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:06,880 Speaker 1: do want to say one thing though, in all seriousness, 897 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: you I mean to get on the Ted stage. You 898 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 1: just have to have an idea, you know, you just 899 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,879 Speaker 1: have to have a sort of your own idea about anything. Really, 900 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 1: you don't have to be like a brain surgeon or 901 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 1: a chemist or scientist. We have you have all kinds 902 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,759 Speaker 1: of people, homeless people, you people who have who have 903 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:26,439 Speaker 1: never you know, who sort of you know, are down 904 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:28,400 Speaker 1: and out and all the different kinds of evil. But 905 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,799 Speaker 1: they have something to say, and you have a lot 906 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 1: to say. How did how did the whole Ted world 907 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 1: the Ted Talks first come about? Because you know, I 908 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,919 Speaker 1: can't remember when I started watching them and seeing them 909 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 1: and you know online, Like where did the idea of 910 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 1: the inception of it come from? Yeah, it's crazy. It 911 00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:46,960 Speaker 1: started out as this like conference of nerds and geeks 912 00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 1: in in California four and it was a closed and 913 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 1: well it was because it wasn't recorded. They just they 914 00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 1: would just hang out in Monterey and people would come 915 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 1: up and speak. But what happened was all these really 916 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:02,759 Speaker 1: amazing people would debut things to this small group of 917 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:06,400 Speaker 1: scientists and academics, so like the cd ROM and you know, 918 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 1: Steve Jobs would come and show products. And then in 919 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 1: around around like nineteen, it was bought out by a 920 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,399 Speaker 1: foundation and they transformed it into what it is today. 921 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 1: So they started videotaping the talks. They moved the conference 922 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 1: to Long Beach now it's in Vancouver, um, and they 923 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 1: start to make the talks available for free to anyone 924 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:29,640 Speaker 1: to see. And I think in around two thousand and 925 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,520 Speaker 1: six and that totally transformed. That's that's why you hadn't 926 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 1: heard of TED talks until two thousand and six, because 927 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:40,480 Speaker 1: the videos didn't exist until then. Who who has been 928 00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 1: thus far? You could probably name a few who has 929 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:47,719 Speaker 1: been your most proudest TED talk where you were like, 930 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 1: this is I'm so proud that I'm a part of 931 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:52,480 Speaker 1: this thing, not just for myself from my own ego 932 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 1: or or success, that that this talk is happening and 933 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:58,479 Speaker 1: I'm putting this out in the world. Besides, of course 934 00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:00,399 Speaker 1: this interview right here, which you would have to say 935 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 1: saying obviously, you know it's it's it's such a good 936 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:09,640 Speaker 1: question because their talks that literally, you know, change the 937 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,319 Speaker 1: way I think about the world. You know, Um, you know, 938 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: for example, there there's a guy named David Stindel. Rast 939 00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 1: He's a Benedictine monk, right, and you're thinking, I'm not 940 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: particularly religious, and you know what, what am I going 941 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:22,920 Speaker 1: to sort of get out of this guy? And his 942 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: talk wasn't about faith or God or any of that. 943 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,520 Speaker 1: It was about happiness. And it was a really amazing 944 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 1: talk because he he showed that by doing something really simple. 945 00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:37,839 Speaker 1: I mean, it sounds super corny, but by actually expressing gratitude. 946 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:43,320 Speaker 1: There is scientific research that shows when you express gratitude 947 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,680 Speaker 1: actually has a a neurological effect on you. It actually 948 00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 1: makes you happier. If you get up in the morning 949 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 1: you're like, you know what, I'm really I'm really fucking lucky, 950 00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:54,880 Speaker 1: like I have, I have a lot to be lucky about, 951 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 1: and you think about specific things. It actually is transformational. 952 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 1: And I tried to do it especially I'm feeling negative, 953 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 1: um and that just it's just a simple idea, and 954 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 1: it's one of you know, thousands, tens of thousands of 955 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 1: ideas that come out of the Ted stage. Well, give 956 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 1: me give me one other one, because that one is 957 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,080 Speaker 1: very profound that you mentioned it will give me one 958 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 1: more that you were like this this is great. Like 959 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,239 Speaker 1: you were like, this is a good this is a 960 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,919 Speaker 1: good thing that I'm doing, Like this is a great talk, 961 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:22,960 Speaker 1: this is I'm great that this is a time capsule 962 00:48:24,200 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 1: on that people will be able to listen to forever. 963 00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 1: You know. Um, there's a kind and Andrew Solomon who 964 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 1: has given a few TED talks, And what I really 965 00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 1: love about his talks is that he's really open about 966 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,919 Speaker 1: the idea of this sort of the you know, going 967 00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: through depression and anxiety. I mean, you're a comic. A 968 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 1: lot of comics deal with this. They don't talk about it, 969 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,439 Speaker 1: which is why they get on stage and and that's 970 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 1: an outlet. And he's really opened a door to talk 971 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:52,640 Speaker 1: about a really serious thing that affects everybody. At some point. 972 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:56,000 Speaker 1: Everybody gets down, but some people get really down. And 973 00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 1: he he has really sort of changed the way at 974 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:05,200 Speaker 1: think about things like depression anxiety. Um, he he has 975 00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 1: suffered suffered to himself. He's an incredibly accomplished writer, a 976 00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 1: Pulitzer Prize winner, a National Book Award winner.

Like, what would you get like, 1141 00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 1: what are the top three sort of topics tips to 1142 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,200 Speaker 1: to to sort of get out of the way of yourself? 1143 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 1: Okay times, because sometimes I get in the way of myself. 1144 00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:28,680 Speaker 1: So what do you do that gets in the way 1145 00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 1: of yourself?

Well, if I knew that, I wouldn't 1146 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:36,600 Speaker 1: even be asking, I'd like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's 1147 00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:41,520 Speaker 1: worry yeah, Okay. I think it's all sort of different 1148 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:44,360 Speaker 1: versions of worrying. Okay, so here's an idea for you 1149 00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 1: to schedule time to worry. As weird as that sounds, 1150 00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:50,320 Speaker 1: Sometimes people who find that they're constantly worrying, Like, let's 1151 00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:52,640 Speaker 1: say you're worrying because you've got some big thing coming 1152 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:54,000 Speaker 1: up in a week. You're like, I'm not going to 1153 00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:57,560 Speaker 1: start worrying about it till Friday, because until then it's 1154 00:57:57,600 --> 00:57:59,480 Speaker 1: it's sort of not ready to be worried about. Or 1155 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna about this until after Thanksgiving you or 1156 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:04,880 Speaker 1: maybe every day for twenty minutes, I'm gonna let myself 1157 00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 1: worry and I'm gonna sit there at my desk and 1158 00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:08,440 Speaker 1: maybe on the right notes, or I'll do whatever it 1159 00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 1: is and I'm just gonna worry then and if I 1160 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:11,840 Speaker 1: feel like worrying. Now I'm not going to because I've 1161 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 1: got my schedule time to worry. It sounds weird, but 1162 00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:16,320 Speaker 1: for a lot of people who feel kind of consumed 1163 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:18,520 Speaker 1: with worry. And here's another thing. Do you have racing 1164 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 1: thoughts at night? Do you have trouble I do. I 1165 00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:25,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't say I have trouble sleeping, to be honest, I 1166 00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:28,680 Speaker 1: find that because of all the social networking, I'm so 1167 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 1: addicted to my phone. It's disgusting. I find that. Don't 1168 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:35,920 Speaker 1: I have some coffee?

Okay, it's your phone, your phone, 1173 00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:49,560 Speaker 1: but my phone. So when you ask about the sleeping, 1174 00:58:49,600 --> 00:58:51,320 Speaker 1: so at night, when I put my phone out, I 1175 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 1: finally my mind is clearer. Yeah, you know, you're better 1176 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:56,600 Speaker 1: at night, and so I'm better at night.

Number one, okay, besides sleeping, UM one is 1236 01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 1: um exercise. I mean it's such a such a, such 1237 01:01:46,520 --> 01:01:48,880 Speaker 1: a everybody knows that. I agree. But so here's the 1238 01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:51,360 Speaker 1: thing about exercise. Sometimes people think that they're too tired 1239 01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:54,600 Speaker 1: to exercise, but in fact, exercise boost energy. So feeling 1240 01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:56,160 Speaker 1: tired as a reason to extra it. So you're NodD 1241 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:58,160 Speaker 1: in your head, you you know this. I agree. Yeah, 1242 01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 1: when I when I wake up, I exercise. I swear 1243 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:04,000 Speaker 1: to God all sometimes be like nothing could go wrong 1244 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:07,480 Speaker 1: in right right well, and I think sometimes people feel like, well, 1245 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:09,200 Speaker 1: I have to train for the marathon, or do an 1246 01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:11,400 Speaker 1: hour spin class or do cross fit or something. No, 1247 01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:14,760 Speaker 1: it's like evening twenty minute walk is better even if 1248 01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:19,640 Speaker 1: you just absolutely and it gets it just really. It 1249 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,720 Speaker 1: affects your mood, your memory, your immune function. It makes 1250 01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:26,920 Speaker 1: it easier to sleep and to sleep more deeply. Now 1251 01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,520 Speaker 1: here sleep, exercise, What else you got? Okay, here's a 1252 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:31,880 Speaker 1: weird one where So you often think that the way 1253 01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:34,680 Speaker 1: you act because of the way you feel like you're 1254 01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:37,560 Speaker 1: screaming because you're angry. But to a very great degree, 1255 01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:39,760 Speaker 1: we feel because of the way we act. So your 1256 01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 1: brain is saying, like, wow, there's so much screaming and 1257 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:43,800 Speaker 1: slamming doors around here. I guess I must be really angry. 1258 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,480 Speaker 1: And so you can control your your emotional state by 1259 01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 1: controlling your behavior, because it's hard to directly control your 1260 01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:52,640 Speaker 1: emotional state, but it's very easy to do your behavior. 1261 01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 1: So let's say you're feeling you're feeling low energy, you're 1262 01:02:55,760 --> 01:03:00,040 Speaker 1: feeling blue, you're feeling unfriendly. You try to act with 1263 01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:03,640 Speaker 1: more energy, speaking more quickly, walk more quickly, act friendly. 1264 01:03:03,720 --> 01:03:05,360 Speaker 1: Just you know this whole fake it too. You feel 1265 01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:10,200 Speaker 1: like it seems like you actually just like I'm smiling. 1266 01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:15,960 Speaker 1: So they did this study where they made people have 1267 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:18,200 Speaker 1: an artificial smile by putting a pencil above their lip 1268 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:20,120 Speaker 1: and telling them like, hold the pencil up, and so 1269 01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:22,600 Speaker 1: they're kind of like, we're false smiling, and even that 1270 01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:27,240 Speaker 1: raise their moves. And so people worry about being inauthentic, 1271 01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:28,760 Speaker 1: but a lot it's not that you're being an authentic. 1272 01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 1: It's that you're trying to tap into a certain aspect 1273 01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:33,600 Speaker 1: of your emotions that's feeling out of reach. So acts 1274 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 1: on what you want to feel. And here's the one 1275 01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:38,240 Speaker 1: that's that isn't true for everybody, but it's true for 1276 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:39,680 Speaker 1: a lot of people. Which is it for a lot 1277 01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:41,960 Speaker 1: of people. Out of order contributes to inter calm and 1278 01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,240 Speaker 1: getting your stuff in order and being able to find 1279 01:03:44,280 --> 01:03:47,600 Speaker 1: your keys and all that stuff makes you feel calm 1280 01:03:47,640 --> 01:03:49,200 Speaker 1: or makes you feel more energetic. And a lot of 1281 01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:52,160 Speaker 1: people a friend of mine said, I finally cleaned out 1282 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 1: my fridge and now I know I can switch careers. 1283 01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:57,200 Speaker 1: And so sometimes that little disorder makes you feel like 1284 01:03:57,200 --> 01:04:00,760 Speaker 1: your head's messed up. Yeah, alright, these are of basic tips, 1285 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:03,680 Speaker 1: and you're good to remind yourself of. It's nothing. You 1286 01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:06,080 Speaker 1: know this. You just have to be reminded. Did you 1287 01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:09,439 Speaker 1: have a background in psychology or anything like that, because 1288 01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:11,320 Speaker 1: you used to all right, that's a person. I'm a 1289 01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:16,480 Speaker 1: lawyer by training. Serious. Well, it's kind of like problem 1290 01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:18,880 Speaker 1: I think, you know, I think like, once it's in you, 1291 01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:21,280 Speaker 1: it's always there. What kind of lawyer did you practice? Well, 1292 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:24,120 Speaker 1: I was a law clerk for Justice Sandraday O'Connor, So 1293 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:26,280 Speaker 1: I was a really yeah, I was a hardcore person 1294 01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:27,800 Speaker 1: and then I just decided I wanted to be a 1295 01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:30,040 Speaker 1: writer instead, so I switched to writing. So so, what 1296 01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:32,920 Speaker 1: has been sort of the biggest sort of wow moment 1297 01:04:33,800 --> 01:04:36,840 Speaker 1: with podcasting for you? Like for me? You know, I've 1298 01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:38,720 Speaker 1: had people come up to me on the street and 1299 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 1: I'm used to you're famous already. But but but when 1300 01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:44,400 Speaker 1: people say to me, when the first thing they say 1301 01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:46,320 Speaker 1: to me is I love your podcast, I'm always so 1302 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:49,400 Speaker 1: like I'm always it's almost like every single time it's 1303 01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:51,800 Speaker 1: the first time it catches me because it's almost like 1304 01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:54,680 Speaker 1: that means I love your soul, right because you're revealing 1305 01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:57,480 Speaker 1: yourself in a way, so you're not even with acting 1306 01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:01,160 Speaker 1: or writing. It's you're revealing yourself much more. I agree, 1307 01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:02,880 Speaker 1: And you know you're talking to people a lot of 1308 01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:05,600 Speaker 1: times in their headphones. So what can I tell you 1309 01:05:05,640 --> 01:05:07,760 Speaker 1: about a funny moment from you on on a podcast. 1310 01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:10,160 Speaker 1: So my husband's obsessed with Bill Simmons, but I don't 1311 01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:12,680 Speaker 1: know anything about sports, so I was but I was like, Okay, 1312 01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna listen to one just to hear why why 1313 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:16,600 Speaker 1: he loves Bill Simmons. And the one I listened to 1314 01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:18,240 Speaker 1: was one that you were on there and you were 1315 01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:20,720 Speaker 1: talking about Prince and what a stickman he was, and 1316 01:05:20,760 --> 01:05:22,240 Speaker 1: I was like, you were using on this slank.

I think I get the drift you got 1319 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:29,320 Speaker 1: to that, but I'm like, this is a whole bunch 1320 01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:32,800 Speaker 1: of male slang that I have never been expecsed, Like 1321 01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:36,880 Speaker 1: I need to get out urban dictionary.

I didn't you know, 1326 01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:51,920 Speaker 1: like you know, like this celebrity or this person I respect, 1327 01:05:52,040 --> 01:05:53,960 Speaker 1: listen to my pockets. What has been a couple of 1328 01:05:53,960 --> 01:05:56,640 Speaker 1: those moments? One thing is we did an episode. It's 1329 01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:59,640 Speaker 1: always very meaningful worth some because we talk about advice 1330 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:00,919 Speaker 1: that you can use at home, so I we always 1331 01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:02,600 Speaker 1: start with to try this at home tip. We talked 1332 01:06:02,600 --> 01:06:07,120 Speaker 1: about happiness hacks. We talk about um stumbling blocks and 1333 01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:09,520 Speaker 1: when somebody says like, wow, I really had this problem 1334 01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:11,439 Speaker 1: and you guys talked about it and then I did 1335 01:06:11,480 --> 01:06:14,600 Speaker 1: something different and now my life's better. It's just it's 1336 01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:17,560 Speaker 1: so it's it's if you. I feel like I'm part 1337 01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:19,400 Speaker 1: of something that's so much bigger than even I could 1338 01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:21,600 Speaker 1: have created. Like we did an episode recently where we 1339 01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:25,000 Speaker 1: talked about reviving adornmant friendship like looking back in your 1340 01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:27,440 Speaker 1: past and finding somebody who you're once close to but 1341 01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:30,919 Speaker 1: who got away, or somebody where you always were always like, oh, 1342 01:06:31,040 --> 01:06:33,000 Speaker 1: that person would be a friend if I just like 1343 01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 1: made a little bit of an effort, but somehow it 1344 01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:37,360 Speaker 1: never happened. And I heard from so many people that 1345 01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:39,160 Speaker 1: were like, oh, you know, when I was listening to that, 1346 01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 1: I was thinking about this person or that person in 1347 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,320 Speaker 1: my life. And over the last month, I've done X 1348 01:06:43,440 --> 01:06:45,720 Speaker 1: Y Z and now I have this whole vibrant friendship. 1349 01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:48,680 Speaker 1: I mean to me and it's and research shows ancient 1350 01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:51,680 Speaker 1: philosophers and contemporary scientists agree that relationships are really the 1351 01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:53,919 Speaker 1: key to happiness. And so the thought that I've helped 1352 01:06:53,960 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 1: people reconnect with old friends or make new friends, it's 1353 01:06:57,200 --> 01:06:58,960 Speaker 1: like that kind of thing. That's what means the most 1354 01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:03,080 Speaker 1: is feel like it's actually helpful. And again, it's all 1355 01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:05,640 Speaker 1: stuff that everybody knows. It's like, of course, you know 1356 01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 1: that friendships are important to your happiness. You don't you 1357 01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:10,080 Speaker 1: know that it says you need somebody to kind of 1358 01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:13,760 Speaker 1: remind you and also maybe give you some ideas about Okay, well, 1359 01:07:14,040 --> 01:07:16,959 Speaker 1: if that's true, what would I do differently? How would 1360 01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:19,720 Speaker 1: I how would I put that into practice tomorrow? So 1361 01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:22,800 Speaker 1: that's that's for me, all right. I really appreciate you 1362 01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:26,040 Speaker 1: talking to me, and I am I need to start 1363 01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:28,640 Speaker 1: listening to your podcast more often because because these things 1364 01:07:28,640 --> 01:07:30,840 Speaker 1: are good, and I do get in the way of 1365 01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:34,760 Speaker 1: myself mentally and and sort of talk myself on the ledges, 1366 01:07:34,800 --> 01:07:36,680 Speaker 1: and I need to start talking to myself down to 1367 01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:39,600 Speaker 1: the ground floor.

I'm speaking 1376 01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:11,600 Speaker 1: with Larry Rosen, Larry Rosen, and some people are listening 1377 01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,920 Speaker 1: going who the funds? I Rosen?

I'm the president of 1379 01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:20,040 Speaker 1: a company called Edison Research. Yes, we're based in New 1380 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:24,040 Speaker 1: Jersey and we do research about a variety of different things. 1381 01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 1: Where the company you'll find this interesting, the company that 1382 01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:29,439 Speaker 1: does the exit polls for the television networks on election night. 1383 01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:32,040 Speaker 1: So when you watch TV on election night and they say, 1384 01:08:32,040 --> 01:08:35,160 Speaker 1: according to our exit polls were So that's a whole 1385 01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:37,960 Speaker 1: other topic. But we also do a lot of research 1386 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:42,760 Speaker 1: about media and audio and we've been measuring the podcasting 1387 01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:45,720 Speaker 1: space for over ten years now, and so that's why 1388 01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:48,360 Speaker 1: I'm at this conference. That's cool. So so, so what 1389 01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:54,639 Speaker 1: what has been the most interesting biggest growth um about 1390 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:57,439 Speaker 1: podcasting in the last ten years. Well, the biggest growth 1391 01:08:57,439 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 1: has come in the last year. It's been sort of 1392 01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:03,880 Speaker 1: blame and my fans we brought brought Yes, not just 1393 01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:06,559 Speaker 1: blame credits on us. We brought all the people in, right, 1394 01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:10,080 Speaker 1: But it's it's you and it's so much other energy 1395 01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:13,000 Speaker 1: in the space that is causing growth. And it's been 1396 01:09:13,080 --> 01:09:15,639 Speaker 1: a very slow build over the courts of the ten 1397 01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:20,519 Speaker 1: years there were there still are some technological limitations and 1398 01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:25,040 Speaker 1: it's still uh, sort of foreign to a lot of people. Uh. 1399 01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:28,200 Speaker 1: And you know, what we're finding is that the big 1400 01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:30,880 Speaker 1: challenges sort of getting people into podcasting because once they 1401 01:09:30,920 --> 01:09:32,799 Speaker 1: get in, a lot of them get sort of stuck 1402 01:09:33,240 --> 01:09:35,760 Speaker 1: and they love it and they listen to tons of podcasts. 1403 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 1: So there's sort of this tipping point that people need 1404 01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:40,400 Speaker 1: to go through and then for many of them they 1405 01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:42,400 Speaker 1: get really into it. So when you say the biggest 1406 01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:45,000 Speaker 1: challenges to get them into it is because they're reluctant, 1407 01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:47,040 Speaker 1: they don't know, they don't have the technology. What what 1408 01:09:47,160 --> 01:09:50,519 Speaker 1: is What have you found from the Edison group? Um? So, 1409 01:09:50,560 --> 01:09:53,160 Speaker 1: the the things I would say, Number one is that 1410 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:55,960 Speaker 1: when most people think of audio, their brain goes to 1411 01:09:56,120 --> 01:09:58,120 Speaker 1: music and their first thought is to listen to music, 1412 01:09:58,479 --> 01:10:02,679 Speaker 1: and so they need sometimes they be given a taste, 1413 01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:04,439 Speaker 1: you know, someone say you should check this out, you 1414 01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:06,880 Speaker 1: should try this, and they realize that there's more than 1415 01:10:06,920 --> 01:10:10,559 Speaker 1: just music that's compelling to them and as exciting to them. Secondly, 1416 01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:13,840 Speaker 1: is absolutely technological. It used to be with podcasts really 1417 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:16,280 Speaker 1: a royal pain to listen to them. You had to 1418 01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:19,960 Speaker 1: sink a file off of your your desktop computer over 1419 01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:22,680 Speaker 1: to your iPod and things like that. Now that's you know, 1420 01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:25,800 Speaker 1: much more, much more seamless with people's phones. But even then, 1421 01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 1: you know, Google just added it to Android is a 1422 01:10:28,439 --> 01:10:31,040 Speaker 1: built in thing. There's still for a lot of people 1423 01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:33,920 Speaker 1: technological gaps. And the biggest one that still remains for 1424 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:36,760 Speaker 1: most people is in the car because even if they 1425 01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:39,240 Speaker 1: can get the podcast onto their phone, for a lot 1426 01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:42,439 Speaker 1: of people, even though they could through an ox jack 1427 01:10:42,560 --> 01:10:45,000 Speaker 1: or through Bluetooth or something, get the sound out of 1428 01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:47,640 Speaker 1: their phone and through the car, it's so painful for 1429 01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:49,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people that they might now I'll just 1430 01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:52,599 Speaker 1: listen to radio. Got As that becomes easier and easier, 1431 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:55,880 Speaker 1: listening will go up more and more because the the 1432 01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:59,559 Speaker 1: obstacles will be reduced. Okay, now listen I I pride 1433 01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:02,640 Speaker 1: myself on my podcast being a worldwide phenomenon. Give me 1434 01:11:02,720 --> 01:11:06,040 Speaker 1: one tip, Larry, one tip how I could just take 1435 01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:07,920 Speaker 1: things to the next level, Like I'm trying to take 1436 01:11:07,960 --> 01:11:11,240 Speaker 1: things to like other planets, you know, other places undiscovered. 1437 01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:14,719 Speaker 1: Like so technologically speaking from a marketing point of view, 1438 01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:18,720 Speaker 1: other than my crazy videos, my Instagram's, my post, I 1439 01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:20,920 Speaker 1: go on street corners.

Well, I think you're doing 1442 01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:27,479 Speaker 1: the right things. I mean going on other people's podcast. 1443 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:31,360 Speaker 1: The overwhelming evidence is that the single most powerful thing 1444 01:11:31,840 --> 01:11:35,639 Speaker 1: to launch a new podcast is to get mentioned on 1445 01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:39,840 Speaker 1: an existing successful podcast. I mean, Serial was great because 1446 01:11:39,840 --> 01:11:42,360 Speaker 1: the content was great, But There's great in part because 1447 01:11:42,400 --> 01:11:45,599 Speaker 1: Ira Glass on a regular episode of This American Life 1448 01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:49,759 Speaker 1: could feature sirial Uh. The whole Gimlet group has created 1449 01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:52,680 Speaker 1: sort of a perpetual motion machine where one of the 1450 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:55,160 Speaker 1: shows is doing well and it says you should also 1451 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:58,799 Speaker 1: check out this show, and Peature is doing that, Panically 1452 01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:01,080 Speaker 1: is doing that, and so I think you are doing 1453 01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,680 Speaker 1: the right things by being a guest on people's podcast 1454 01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:07,160 Speaker 1: like Simmons and others and so that they go, hey, 1455 01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:09,559 Speaker 1: this guy's got something to say, he's got to take 1456 01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:13,120 Speaker 1: and make sure you mentioned when you do that. I 1457 01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:15,639 Speaker 1: have my own podect I got you, I got you, 1458 01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:18,040 Speaker 1: UM and so so, so what are the other things 1459 01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:20,280 Speaker 1: I'm curious now, what are the other things at the 1460 01:12:20,400 --> 01:12:23,320 Speaker 1: Edison Group that you guys are sort of doing research on. Um, 1461 01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:26,559 Speaker 1: that that that you're you're excited about and that you know, Like, so, 1462 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:28,720 Speaker 1: what I'm here to talk about today, I'm showing you 1463 01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:30,200 Speaker 1: just some of the general trends on how much it 1464 01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:33,240 Speaker 1: does the Edison Group have a podcast in itself? We don't. 1465 01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:36,519 Speaker 1: Several of us are well, I've been guests guests on 1466 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:40,320 Speaker 1: the podcast. Maybe we should launch our own. But the 1467 01:12:40,880 --> 01:12:43,200 Speaker 1: what I'm here to talk about today is research we 1468 01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:45,639 Speaker 1: did with the I A B that shows not only 1469 01:12:45,720 --> 01:12:50,040 Speaker 1: is it growing and popular, but that more proof of 1470 01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:52,519 Speaker 1: how well advertising works in this medium I Got you, 1471 01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:56,519 Speaker 1: and that advertisers should continue to get on board and 1472 01:12:56,560 --> 01:12:59,880 Speaker 1: should continue to pay very high we call them cost 1473 01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:03,479 Speaker 1: thousand CPM. If you've learned the lego here, uh, you know, 1474 01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:08,120 Speaker 1: high value for listeners to podcasts. Because listeners to podcasts 1475 01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:12,040 Speaker 1: want to support their shows. They wanted to support their hosts, 1476 01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:14,120 Speaker 1: and they want to support the kinds of companies that 1477 01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:17,840 Speaker 1: support those shows, and so the results are tremendous. That 1478 01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:20,280 Speaker 1: makes that makes sense. It's good to hear so because 1479 01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:22,160 Speaker 1: because like you know, like I was talking to these 1480 01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:25,800 Speaker 1: women earlier, like you know, there's thousands and thousands and 1481 01:13:25,840 --> 01:13:28,439 Speaker 1: it's getting up into you know, a million people will 1482 01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:30,760 Speaker 1: listen to one episode of a podcast I'm in I'm 1483 01:13:30,760 --> 01:13:33,840 Speaker 1: in the film and television business. You know, that's bigger 1484 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:35,960 Speaker 1: than some people amount of people that watch a live 1485 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:38,559 Speaker 1: TV show at times. Absolutely, And if you sell a 1486 01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:41,559 Speaker 1: million tickets to a movie, you know, at ten dollars, 1487 01:13:42,080 --> 01:13:45,840 Speaker 1: that's a good opening weekend. That's a tremendous opening weekend. Right, So, um, 1488 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:48,880 Speaker 1: the numbers are are sneaky big, I agree with you, 1489 01:13:48,960 --> 01:13:52,440 Speaker 1: and they're growing.

We can talk about historical figures, but 1536 01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:31,320 Speaker 1: there's also a lot of other color in the past 1537 01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:33,360 Speaker 1: that needs to be talked about. Did you guys miss 1538 01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:36,240 Speaker 1: a lot of ship in history class? Yeah, there's the 1539 01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:38,960 Speaker 1: stuff that I don't remember because I found history classes 1540 01:16:39,200 --> 01:16:41,439 Speaker 1: boring in school. And then there's the part that they 1541 01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:44,880 Speaker 1: just like skipped over right, like they didn't really get 1542 01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:46,519 Speaker 1: into a lot of the sorts of things that we 1543 01:16:46,520 --> 01:16:50,240 Speaker 1: talk about. What what is some of the because people 1544 01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:54,880 Speaker 1: have such different point of views on history and the world, 1545 01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:57,320 Speaker 1: and people want to believe what they want to believe. 1546 01:16:57,360 --> 01:16:59,840 Speaker 1: What has been one of the topics that you guys 1547 01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:04,280 Speaker 1: have dealt with that piss people off? Or sort of 1548 01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:07,439 Speaker 1: course the biggest uproar because now it's like you could 1549 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:09,640 Speaker 1: do a podcast and then you become this, you know, 1550 01:17:09,680 --> 01:17:12,760 Speaker 1: celebrity podcasters. And obviously I'm sure you guys are on 1551 01:17:12,800 --> 01:17:14,600 Speaker 1: Twitter and social media because it's all part of the 1552 01:17:15,240 --> 01:17:18,559 Speaker 1: podcasting world. What's been the one that drove the people nuts? 1553 01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:22,000 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think, has there been a few of them? Oh? Yeah, 1554 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:23,960 Speaker 1: we just got to pick the one that made people 1555 01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:27,759 Speaker 1: the most angry. I'm just looking at my mind of times, 1556 01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:31,280 Speaker 1: it's how we pronounced something. We'll set off a ridiculous 1557 01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:34,679 Speaker 1: rage battle. What the right I'm with you. That's exactly 1558 01:17:35,160 --> 01:17:37,520 Speaker 1: here the way I speak, because I mean I I 1559 01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:41,360 Speaker 1: my people. Um, here's one that you would never have expected. 1560 01:17:41,600 --> 01:17:44,120 Speaker 1: So we did one because we try to like have 1561 01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:47,680 Speaker 1: a little foresight and be like this might cause some weirdness. 1562 01:17:47,720 --> 01:17:49,600 Speaker 1: We should just be ready. We did one on the 1563 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:54,599 Speaker 1: history of crayons. This seems benign, it's not. We started 1564 01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:58,160 Speaker 1: the biggest war on social media about how people pronounced 1565 01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:01,960 Speaker 1: the word crayon. It wasiculous. They're stupid idiots, Like it 1566 01:18:02,040 --> 01:18:07,000 Speaker 1: was what what what crayon? Right? What's the pronunciation you? 1567 01:18:07,200 --> 01:18:10,920 Speaker 1: I say crayon, you say crayon, you say crayon. People 1568 01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:13,720 Speaker 1: in sort of more of the Midwest, it's it's more 1569 01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:18,719 Speaker 1: like crown, Like it's one that doesn't work. Crown kind 1570 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:21,240 Speaker 1: of Yeah. I mean again, I can because that's not 1571 01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:24,240 Speaker 1: where I grew right, I'm not one sound right, Yeah, 1572 01:18:24,280 --> 01:18:28,519 Speaker 1: I I like my annunciation. Pronunciation, the way I speak 1573 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:33,320 Speaker 1: is there's nothing, you know, fantastic about it. So so 1574 01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:34,880 Speaker 1: that would be the one thing that stuck out of 1575 01:18:34,920 --> 01:18:36,559 Speaker 1: all the things. But what about like in terms of 1576 01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:39,880 Speaker 1: like you pitches don't because I'm sure that they probably 1577 01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:41,719 Speaker 1: call you. I'm not saying that, but I'm sure because 1578 01:18:41,720 --> 01:18:43,880 Speaker 1: on social media it's like, you know, I've been called 1579 01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:45,880 Speaker 1: you bitches and I'm just one person, but like, so 1580 01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:48,160 Speaker 1: what was the one thing? Like that's not right and 1581 01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:51,040 Speaker 1: you know this didn't happen, and you bees don't know 1582 01:18:51,080 --> 01:18:54,400 Speaker 1: what the hell you're talking about in historical content, anything 1583 01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:58,200 Speaker 1: about slavery, anything about slavery, okay. And then the people 1584 01:18:58,240 --> 01:18:59,960 Speaker 1: come in and say, why don't you ever talk about 1585 01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,000 Speaker 1: Irish slaves and it's like, well, because that's not a 1586 01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:07,240 Speaker 1: real thing. Okay. Yeah, I mean that's start of the unfortunate, 1587 01:19:07,680 --> 01:19:11,400 Speaker 1: The unfortunate thing that happens when people do get sort 1588 01:19:11,439 --> 01:19:14,320 Speaker 1: of a broad strokes, whittled down version of history in school, 1589 01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 1: which is no way shade to teachers, like they are 1590 01:19:17,280 --> 01:19:19,400 Speaker 1: working their asses off, but a lot of times you 1591 01:19:19,479 --> 01:19:22,000 Speaker 1: kind of get the broad strokes bullet points version and 1592 01:19:22,080 --> 01:19:24,479 Speaker 1: you don't realize, no, there's a lot of shading in there, 1593 01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:27,680 Speaker 1: and historians are writing things from certain points of view, 1594 01:19:27,720 --> 01:19:30,000 Speaker 1: so you can't just look at one textbook or one account. 1595 01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:31,920 Speaker 1: You have to look at a broad scope, and that's 1596 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,320 Speaker 1: when the patterns really start to emerge and you realize 1597 01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:36,720 Speaker 1: maybe what you were taught and tested on was not 1598 01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:41,639 Speaker 1: entirely accurate. If if somebody like myself, who was failed 1599 01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:44,519 Speaker 1: by the public school system of New York City and 1600 01:19:44,880 --> 01:19:47,640 Speaker 1: the alternative private schools that I went to, wanted to 1601 01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:52,200 Speaker 1: sort of educate himself more on on history in general, 1602 01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:57,040 Speaker 1: what would you say are the three quintessential history books 1603 01:19:57,040 --> 01:19:59,680 Speaker 1: to read. Let's say let's start with American history. What 1604 01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:03,439 Speaker 1: would you say are the three what would like or 1605 01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:05,120 Speaker 1: just we're in general? What would you say are the 1606 01:20:05,160 --> 01:20:07,360 Speaker 1: three sort of best ways to sort of re educate 1607 01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:11,599 Speaker 1: revitalize somebody's interests besides listening to your podcast, of course, 1608 01:20:11,920 --> 01:20:14,280 Speaker 1: what would be sort of like the best way to start? See. 1609 01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:16,040 Speaker 1: I think it's really hard to pick a book because 1610 01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:18,920 Speaker 1: a lot of our show is focused on a specific things. 1611 01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:20,720 Speaker 1: So instead of like a book that's going to give 1612 01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:23,600 Speaker 1: you an overview, we're usually focused on like books and 1613 01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:27,120 Speaker 1: primary sources about the individual incident that we're talking about, 1614 01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:30,040 Speaker 1: instead of like the big arc um. So you go, like, 1615 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:33,080 Speaker 1: more specific about the incident I got you. Yeah, yes, 1616 01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:36,360 Speaker 1: give it to me, and it will surprise no one 1617 01:20:36,400 --> 01:20:38,760 Speaker 1: that listens to our podcast. Because I have rabies for 1618 01:20:38,880 --> 01:20:41,759 Speaker 1: Queen Victoria. I'll just do I love her, but Christopher 1619 01:20:41,840 --> 01:20:44,080 Speaker 1: Hibbert wrote a really good biography of her. And why 1620 01:20:44,160 --> 01:20:46,880 Speaker 1: I think it's important is because her reign was so 1621 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:50,400 Speaker 1: long and her life touched all of Europe and parts 1622 01:20:50,400 --> 01:20:53,880 Speaker 1: of America in terms of influence, that it becomes a 1623 01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:57,679 Speaker 1: really good snapshot of that chunk of time. So from 1624 01:20:57,960 --> 01:21:01,559 Speaker 1: you know, the early eight hundreds right up to she 1625 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:05,240 Speaker 1: was influencing, influencing the globe continually. Okay, So that's a 1626 01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:08,719 Speaker 1: good one, I think, And I think it's Queen Victoria 1627 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:10,840 Speaker 1: A Life. I hope I'm not confusing it with another 1628 01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:13,640 Speaker 1: Victoria title that I read recently. All right now, you 1629 01:21:13,680 --> 01:21:17,400 Speaker 1: told me you are a housewife fan. Yeah, all right now, 1630 01:21:17,439 --> 01:21:20,400 Speaker 1: I want to blow your mind right now. Do it Tonight, 1631 01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:23,759 Speaker 1: I'm going to watch what Happens like to stop because 1632 01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:26,680 Speaker 1: my hotel doesn't get I'm gonna have to watch the 1633 01:21:26,720 --> 01:21:28,920 Speaker 1: after show online. Okay, that's all I got. You gotta 1634 01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:31,519 Speaker 1: watch the after show. And you know I'm on with Bethany. Yes, 1635 01:21:31,920 --> 01:21:35,040 Speaker 1: So it's going to go down, it's going the situation 1636 01:21:35,120 --> 01:21:37,000 Speaker 1: is popping off. I hope you are ready to light 1637 01:21:37,040 --> 01:21:39,760 Speaker 1: the fuse. I'm ready to light the fuse. I mean, 1638 01:21:40,160 --> 01:21:42,439 Speaker 1: what was your opinion of the finale of Real Housewives 1639 01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:43,840 Speaker 1: of New York this year. I gotta think of the 1640 01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:46,320 Speaker 1: finale because the last thing I watched was the first 1641 01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:48,960 Speaker 1: of the reunion show. I mean just in general, the 1642 01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:56,160 Speaker 1: whole thing's nuts delicious, Yes, fantastic. Dude, what do you think? 1643 01:21:56,360 --> 01:22:00,599 Speaker 1: What do you think of Luanne and Tom specifically? Do 1644 01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:06,960 Speaker 1: you think she wants to feel special? Right? Which who doesn't? 1645 01:22:07,120 --> 01:22:09,439 Speaker 1: And I just think it's maybe clouded some judgment there. 1646 01:22:09,640 --> 01:22:12,360 Speaker 1: I do too, And I whish breaks my heart because 1647 01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:15,280 Speaker 1: I don't want people to trade in like the potential 1648 01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:18,920 Speaker 1: for an actual, really amazing connection with someone for what 1649 01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:20,720 Speaker 1: they think they want when I don't think it's going 1650 01:22:20,760 --> 01:22:24,719 Speaker 1: to get them there. I agree, I agree? Who who 1651 01:22:24,800 --> 01:22:27,080 Speaker 1: is your? If you had to do it, I always 1652 01:22:27,080 --> 01:22:30,559 Speaker 1: do Top five because I was equated to basketball. First, 1653 01:22:30,600 --> 01:22:32,920 Speaker 1: Well are you all all? You all housewives? What are 1654 01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:36,000 Speaker 1: your shows? I can't do Atlanta really, yeah, because it's 1655 01:22:36,040 --> 01:22:38,920 Speaker 1: my city, and so like, when I see them in 1656 01:22:38,960 --> 01:22:42,280 Speaker 1: restaurants i'm eating it, I'm like, well, not personally, but 1657 01:22:42,320 --> 01:22:45,360 Speaker 1: like what I have on occasion, I have on occasion, 1658 01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:47,080 Speaker 1: But when I see them in a restaurant to eat, 1659 01:22:47,160 --> 01:22:52,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, it's weird. When Bobby and Whitney lived 1660 01:22:52,880 --> 01:22:55,439 Speaker 1: in Atlanta, they lived near one of my good friends 1661 01:22:56,400 --> 01:22:59,160 Speaker 1: places of business, and so they would sometimes stumble into 1662 01:22:59,200 --> 01:23:02,720 Speaker 1: Half Happy I Raffords, and when it was like, you know, 1663 01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:04,639 Speaker 1: you hoped you saw them, they were like the Wiener Mobile. 1664 01:23:04,880 --> 01:23:07,320 Speaker 1: You hoped, maybe they'll show up and something crazy will happen. 1665 01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:10,360 Speaker 1: But somehow it doesn't translate to housewives for me and you, 1666 01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:13,599 Speaker 1: I'm not counting you're missing out with Atlanta. It's it's 1667 01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:16,679 Speaker 1: Atlanta is the gift that keeps on giving. I love Atlanta. 1668 01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:21,120 Speaker 1: New York is my favorite. That's not my Atlanta. Understand 1669 01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:25,719 Speaker 1: I don't understand your worldview. You know, I got you. 1670 01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:27,880 Speaker 1: You know, like I'm in the same places that you. 1671 01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:30,880 Speaker 1: We are, not in the same Atlanta Me me and 1672 01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:34,400 Speaker 1: um me and what's her name? I'm just totally came 1673 01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:37,759 Speaker 1: in out of my head. Not Derenda, um on RONI 1674 01:23:38,080 --> 01:23:42,000 Speaker 1: um my favorite Ramona. She lived. We live in the 1675 01:23:42,040 --> 01:23:44,479 Speaker 1: same neighborhood on the Upper eas Side, Mona Coaster adjacent. 1676 01:23:44,600 --> 01:23:48,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I love it. So I get what you're saying, 1677 01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:50,120 Speaker 1: Like if I saw them in my take away from it? 1678 01:23:50,479 --> 01:23:53,320 Speaker 1: Um So, if you had to pick your favorite most 1679 01:23:53,360 --> 01:23:56,880 Speaker 1: influential housewife of of all cities. Who would it be? 1680 01:23:58,200 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, who's the one that's sort of like 1681 01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:03,080 Speaker 1: who has your heart? Sophie's choice because because to me, Bethnie, 1682 01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:05,840 Speaker 1: Bethnie will always be my heart, because she's She's what 1683 01:24:05,960 --> 01:24:08,320 Speaker 1: sucked me into the Housewives to begin with.
