1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 1: Okay podcasts now Wow, Hello all and welcome to Stradio Lab.

2
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 1: We're back. We're back. We haven't decided if this is

3
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 1: gonna be our first episode to be released, but we

4
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 1: do want the listeners to know this is the first

5
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,279
Speaker 1: time we're recording. Oh my god, we can't let them

6
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: in like this. We owe it to them, We owe

7
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 1: it to them to be honest and transparent. This is

8
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 1: our first time recording, but potentially we might release the second. Yeah, never,

9
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: depending on if the tech goes correctly and honestly. Based

10
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 1: on the last fifteen minutes, there is a high chance

11
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: so the tech does not go correctly. My god, I

12
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: mean personally, so many times that you're gonna open with

13
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: dragging him? Did I blame him at all? I had

14
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: collective responsibility. It was all of us making a mistake.

15
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: I didn't mention our guest's name. I didn't mention who

16
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: had to. We haven't even decided if we're going to

17
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: bring him in let alone, if he's going to be

18
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 1: the guest today. I mean, we stand by and this

19
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: might just be one of our extra Patreon episodes that's

20
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 1: just the two of us, but we wanted just in case,

21
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: like we decided to release that we wanted to have

22
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: a guest on stand by. Yeah, and we actually have

23
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 1: to um it's you know um and one of which

24
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: you know you might know from a little show called

25
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: Billy on the Street. That um, and we're sort of more.

26
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Sam, you completely frozen and decided, Sam

27
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: completely for like a full thirty seconds. This sucks in

28
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: my back. Yeah you're back. Oh my god. You catch

29
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: my iconic joke where you said you might know our

30
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: guest from Billy on the Street and I said it

31
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 1: was Julianne Moore. You I laughed so hard, did you?

32
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: That's should we just show we just call it a day. No,

33
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: we have a waiting room full of guests, is what

34
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: we're saying. Yeah. Some of the brightest minds of business

35
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: are here in the waiting room of our zoom today.

36
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 1: Some of the some of the biggest business people, I mean,

37
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: the people we have in our waiting room collectively have

38
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: raised over five billion dollars in seed funding for various

39
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: ventures CEO CFO CEOs. Only some of them are in

40
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: the entertainment industry. Many of them are in real estate, banking, finance,

41
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: and even the ones that are in the entertainment industry

42
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: defined themselves more by their business savvy than their work

43
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: right right. I always have found I can relate to

44
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 1: so hard. To me, being in finance is more artistic

45
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 1: than being an actor or a painter. I think being

46
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: a painter is one of the most unartistic things you

47
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: can do. It's one of the really forward things you

48
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: can do. You're putting paint on a cannabis, Whereas here

49
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: in finance you are like the creativity involved and literally

50
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: like creating money out of nowhere then using it incorrectly

51
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: and suddenly in entire countries in recession. Like the cast

52
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: of characters you have to assemble the ego involved. I mean,

53
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: it puts someone like you know who who's kind of

54
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: known as being a volatile actor, Kevin Spacey. It puts

55
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 1: someone like that. Really, um, you know, it's like that

56
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: that's child's play. I mean, well that's some rough wording.

57
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: Um yeah, I just have to agree, I think, um.

58
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: And what's great about people in finance is that they're

59
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: really humble. You know. I talked to these artists types

60
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: and sort of like, oh, I was started thinking about

61
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: these themes, and you know, I was thinking of exploring

62
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: this and this and that, and it's like, just tell

63
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: me the numbers. What's it going for? How much is

64
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: this selling? Well, what I will say about the art

65
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: world is that it is part of finance and that

66
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: it is a money laundering scheme. So in that sense,

67
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 1: artists like painters can be artists in the sense that

68
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: they are literally selling their works to Israeli armed arms

69
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: dealers who want to launder their money. Yeah, I've you know,

70
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: I just want to know how you get in that circuit.

71
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 1: You know, I'm definitely trying to break into sort of

72
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: selling something to some sort of Israeli arms dealer because

73
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: I'm trying to buy coffee tables and they're quite pricey. Well,

74
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 1: you have to. You were telling me in our previous

75
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: in our intro episode the other day, that you had

76
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: to drive all the way to New Jersey to get

77
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: a vantage coffee table. If you were investing with some

78
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: arms dealers, I feel like the table could be sent

79
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: to you. I could have spent the one fifty dollars

80
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: on ship at the very least, I think, and we

81
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: we've touched upon this in the past, but I do

82
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:51,359
Speaker 1: think the investor model needs to be applied to comedy

83
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: and entertainment more. How do you mean people should be

84
00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: paying me? Oh, that would be iconic. And I don't

85
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: mean like micro pavements through Patreon. I mean like I

86
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: should have investors that are I mean international, that have

87
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,279
Speaker 1: like a diversified portfolio. On the one hand, they have me.

88
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,840
Speaker 1: On the other hand, they have you know, Randy Rainbow

89
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,239
Speaker 1: or someone with like a slightly different sensibility. Sure, sure,

90
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: I've you know, I've always wanted. I have had a

91
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: fantasy of just being a sugar baby. I felt like

92
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: that would be like really a beautiful life. Um, I

93
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: think I've potentially aged out of it, which is unfortunate. Um,

94
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 1: you can't go back. You can't go back. If you're

95
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: listening and you're in your early twenties, remember you can't

96
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 1: go back be a sugar baby today. Yeah, I would say,

97
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: turn off this podcast and try really hard to be

98
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: a sugar baby because the time will run out, and

99
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: you think it won't. You're sitting there and you're tight

100
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: little twenty four year old ass and you're thinking, oh, no,

101
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: one's everyone's always gonna want to pay me for sex.

102
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 1: Your asshole is slammed shut barely able to be entered,

103
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: and you're thinking, yeah, I guess I'll just sit here

104
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: and watch nine perfect Strangers starting could kidman, No, you

105
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: have to go out there get a father figure who

106
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: wants to pay you for company and sex. Today, I wonder, like,

107
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: does it feel I feel like we are both and

108
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: in fact, all of us, even our guests that we

109
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: may or may not bring in, we are both at

110
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: the age of not being able to be either a

111
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: son or a daddy. I've thank you for speaking to this.

112
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: I feel this way in such a big way. I

113
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: feel like I feel stupid when I like try to

114
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: get into the sun roll and I simply can't own

115
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 1: the dad role. I don't. I'm I'm not a girl,

116
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: not yet a woman, you get it. It's confusing, but

117
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: I do feel Don't get me wrong. I feel elderly.

118
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: When I talked to a year old it can be crushing,

119
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: but I don't feel fatherly. I feel ancient. Yeah, well,

120
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: the relativity of it all, I mean the other day.

121
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: Often I will see people that are like twenty six

122
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: talking about how they feel old about like gen Z

123
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: people on TikTok, and then that'll kind of really uh

124
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: set me off. And then I'm like, oh, someone who

125
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: is merely four years older than me feels that way

126
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: about me. Like to them, I'm like the braddy kid

127
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: who's yelling and taking off his underwear in the middle

128
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:24,119
Speaker 1: of the shopping mall. Okay, here's here's the thought. Being

129
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: a forty five year old gay man is somehow younger

130
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: than being a thirty two year old gay man. I've

131
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 1: never heard anything more intelligent in my entire life, because

132
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: it's just a different It's time gets twisted a little bit.

133
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: You are you are a baby of a daddy. Baby. Yes,

134
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: if you're forty five, you're a baby daddy. Yeah. Whereas

135
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: when you're thirty two you're the oldest twenty six year

136
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 1: old on earth. Yeah, oh my god. This is people

137
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 1: should be taking notes. If you haven't yet turned off

138
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: the podcast in order to will become a son. You

139
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: hopefully can use this in your dissertation. It could be

140
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: huge for the whole university and academic community. Yeah. Wait,

141
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: Charles Chinon wait, I think I think I think about

142
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: this every day in my life. I think forty onward

143
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: is chic, but thirties is so stupid. Yeah, well, there's

144
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 1: nothing nothing all we're doing is getting ready for our forties.

145
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 1: Right now, the idea of being forty makes me feel

146
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: so like I crave to be forty, Yeah, because it

147
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: will finally like what we're, what we are right now

148
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: will finally be like notarized when we're forty, but not

149
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: just that. Like I'm trying to think of like a

150
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: politically correct way to say this, but like when I

151
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: look at a forty year old, I don't care. Like

152
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 1: a forty year old who like doesn't dress well even

153
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: or doesn't do the things that we are that we

154
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: think we're supposed to do that is hot to me

155
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: because I'm like, they know who they are. I fully

156
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: fully agree. It's like like Mariray Bartlett, Yes, well but

157
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,839
Speaker 1: he's also e mentionally attracted. He's so hot, that's right,

158
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: But it's cheap to be fifty and hot. But like

159
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: thirty two and hot, it doesn't make sense any it

160
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: doesn't make anything. You're hot, You're like, stop clinging to

161
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: your youth. Yes, thirty two and hot, You're like, it's

162
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: almost it's expected. It's sort of like when you're like

163
00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: an a student and you like continue to get as

164
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: it's just like, well, yeah, you're supposed to like thirty

165
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: two and hot is like you're supposed to be hot,

166
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: like if actually you're failing, if you're not. Whereas forty

167
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 1: you can sort of tastefully decide what elements of hot

168
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: you want to bring into your life. Yeah, yeah, in

169
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: person and in terms of non appearance. If I may

215
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,520

00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: how my parents like they just wished me ill will

217
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,160

00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,200

219
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 1: character and e er, which is a curse and absolute curse. Um,

00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 1: you know, really handsome actor type, it would be I

289

290
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 1: and just be Thompson Taggert, right like. That's very like

291
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,120
Speaker 1: a Sex and the City character, and I would love that.

292
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,959
Speaker 1: I mean, it's too late for me. Let's be completely honest,

293
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 1: but if you are twenty, you're never going to be

Speaker 1: You can change your name to anything you want right now.

297
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 1: So tight I was, My ass was so tight. I

298
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,440
Speaker 1: have to be honest. If we're talking about literally the whole,

299
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: my ass is still insanely time you have one of

300
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: the tightest, it's problematically tight. Yeah, but I'm working on

301
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 1: how many times if you top Sam George, Well, I've

302
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 1: tried many times, but as I said, it's literally criminally tight.

303
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: And you know, mean while George's hole just won't close,

304
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 1: is going through its open era? Um No, I mean

305
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,199
Speaker 1: it's crazy that I barely know if my hole was

306
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,959
Speaker 1: tight in my twenties because I kept topping because of

307
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: the pressures of masculinity. Wow. Same, that was the same way.

308
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: But that means that we had super tight holes. Yeah,

309
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: I guess I guess that's true. Charles. What's your Yeah, Charles,

310
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: what is the circumference of you? It's a foot Wow,

311
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,880
Speaker 1: it goes from the bone, it goes from pelvis to pelvis.

312
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:40,199
Speaker 1: You are one of the few people who doesn't have

313
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: ass cheeks. It's just a hole. I'll lose my keys

314
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: and then I'm like, I just gotta back right right,

315
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 1: or you all be walking and then the wind will

316
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 1: blow into it and then you actually will take off. Yeah,

317
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: and then you have to air it out. I'm a

318
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: man shining you. Um. You know, it's a busy city day.

319
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,679
Speaker 1: You're running through Manhattan, you have bags and all your hands,

320
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 1: and then you pick up a foot long subway sandwich

321
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 1: and you're like, where am I going to hold this?

322
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,360
Speaker 1: And it's like, well, I'll just put it in my

323
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:18,880
Speaker 1: asshole long way. It's not even the skinnyway. I get

324
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 1: like cavity searched at the airport and I'm like, oh funk,

325
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. Like that was a subway stand which

326
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 1: I totally did from like two days ago, Like, yeah,

327
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,479
Speaker 1: you can throw it out, it's hold, it's fine. Just

328
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: rage in there. Wow, honey, I'm laughing. Um, should we

329
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: do our first sex in the goldilocks of holds? Perhaps

330
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: mine is the perfect one, Sam, yours is too tight,

331
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 1: and Charles, you can fit five standwiches in there. Oh yeah,

332
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: let's do our first segment. I feel I'm like, wow,

333
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:52,640
Speaker 1: I can't believe we're doing our podcasting. I know it's insane.

334
00:19:52,720 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: I just went outside my body and Um, so, George,

335
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: we describe this segment. Yeah, I'll describe, so, Charles. Our

336
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:05,880
Speaker 1: first segment is called straight Shooters, and this is where

337
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: we gauge our guests familiarity with and complicity and straight

338
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: culture by asking them a series of rapid fire questions

339
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 1: where we just say various straight related things and they

340
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 1: just have to choose whichever one speaks to the most.

341
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: And the one rule is you can't ask any follow

342
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 1: up questions about how the game works, and if you do,

343
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: we will yell at you. So I will go first,

344
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 1: Charles Phoebe Bridgers or Phoebe from Friends Beauty Bridgers, Charles

345
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: Charcuterie Board or water board, secrudery board charles, ironic miss

346
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: injury or earnest straightforward misogyny. What's the first word? The misury?

347
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,640
Speaker 1: Like the hatred of men, ironic misinjury. It's like when

348
00:20:55,640 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: people are like kill all men. Okay, Um, will the

349
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 1: real slim shady please stand up? Or will you take

350
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: this man to be your lawfully wedded husband? Will you

351
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:15,719
Speaker 1: take this into your husband? Taking the subway, taking the bus,

352
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: or taking some time to heal? Actually I think taking

353
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: the subway? Mm hmm. Okay, one bird in the hand,

354
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: two birds in the bush, or one thousand doves? Um? One?

355
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,400
Speaker 1: That was three options? Yeah, Okay, being a frat bro,

356
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 1: being a film bro, or being broken emotionally by your

357
00:21:52,400 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: unsupportive father. Those are all the same, all name okay,

358
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 1: followed me above, um A MacArthur Grant or Melissa McCarthy

359
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 1: and Richard E. Grant and in Can You Ever Forgive Me?

360
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 1: Also the same genius vibes. Genius vibes. This is so hard. Actually,

361
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say the Um, that movie, Okay, that was

362
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: a great movie. I actually really like we wanted it

363
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: to be. We just hadn't seen a movie in ye

364
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: when you're staying there are. Actually that's a really good point.

365
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,199
Speaker 1: There are a lot of um products like that that,

366
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: like I actually feel and I say this truly as

367
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,239
Speaker 1: like a huge Fiona Apple fan and a fan of

368
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 1: that album. That album was also like we just needed

369
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:52,959
Speaker 1: an album. Yeah. Well, also that movie. That movie was

370
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 1: from two thousands three, but it came out into like

371
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 1: it was a movie. It was. It was supposed to

372
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:03,240
Speaker 1: being a coho optioner movie with Julianne Moore, literally Julianne Moore, right,

373
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 1: and then she got fired and replaced with Meliss McCarthy.

374
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 1: This is not a joke, are you sorry? I'm like

375
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 1: a hundred percent posit. Julian were talking about it, and

376
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 1: watch what happens. Well, you shouldn't asked her while you

377
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: had her own. I know, it's actually crazy. I mean,

378
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: first she gets replaced by Melissa McCarthy. Now she gets

379
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: replaced by Charles Rodgers. I mean, what's net It's it's

380
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 1: like an Animals cover with three of us. Yeah, um, okay,

381
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 1: well Sam, I kind of think Charles crushed it and

382
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: knocked it out of the park. Yeah. I mean I'm

383
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: gonna say you got one thousand and one doves are

384
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: still going to do that rating system I until we

385
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: find a new one. That's for damn sure. But I

386
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: saw GEORGEI wins to like two of my answers no, no, no.

387
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: I was responding to how hard you were thinking about

388
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: each one and how seriously you were taking it. Not

389
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: a lot of our guests can say that. A lot

390
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 1: of people think it's a joke. Do you think Phoebe

391
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 1: Bridgers Do you think that that was Phoebe from poe

392
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: I was thinking that somehow Phoebe Bridgers is actually straighter. Well, yeah,

393
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: because in the context of friends, Phoebe is the less

394
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:14,199
Speaker 1: the least straight one, whereas in the context of boy genius,

395
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: Phoebe Bridgers is the most trade one. Can we pull

396
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: that out of my ass? And it's honestly completely correct,

397
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 1: that's actually genius. I mean, I don't know if this

398
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: is the time or the place, but I'm at least

399
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 1: gonna say it. Should we talk about Phoebe Bridges right now?

400
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: I think we have to, Like, this is the most

401
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 1: disappointing guests you could have about in this conversation. Well,

402
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: I do not care about Phoebe Bridgers. I don't know

403
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: I don't know deep cuts, like I just know, like

404
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: I know the existence and I know like I've heard well,

405
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 1: I guess like culturally, I'm sort of starting to a

406
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:48,400
Speaker 1: little confused about Phoebe Bridgers role in like our system.

407
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: I think I just I want to say I'm a huge,

408
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 1: huge fan of her music and and truly think she's

409
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: a genius, brilliant songwriter and lyricist. And I want to

410
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 1: second that, I want to agree with that. I do

411
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 1: think that agree that you feel that way. Yes, I

412
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 1: think her place in the culture is interesting because she

413
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 1: knows how to be a cool girl. Yeah. And on

414
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: the one hand, she's having fun with it. She's starting

415
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 1: to be like, oh, I'll be in like comedy videos

416
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 1: and sort of like, um, transcend my role of like

417
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: singer songwriter. But on the other hand, it's like, well,

418
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: hold on, I don't know if I want to see

419
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,199
Speaker 1: you in a comedy video, and in some ways it

420
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 1: takes away from the singer songwriter. She Also there's this

421
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,959
Speaker 1: like ironic vibe where it's like she can comment on

422
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 1: her own work and be like l O L I

423
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 1: was really depressed when I wrote that, you know whatever,

424
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 1: and it's like, Okay, but maybe what I want out

425
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 1: of someone who writes these like really deep emotional songs

426
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,399
Speaker 1: is for them to really play the part and not

427
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 1: then be able to like see it, see it from

428
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 1: a remove and be like l O, I, I can't

429
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 1: believe I said that. Yeah, please don't put j K

430
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 1: at the end of your album. Like what if Fiona

431
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,080
Speaker 1: Apple was tweeting like that feel when and then it

432
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 1: was like, you know, posting one of her videos or

433
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 1: like I that would take me out of it. And

434
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:06,679
Speaker 1: at first I was like, Oh, this is fun that

435
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,719
Speaker 1: she's like sort of like clapping back online. Like I

436
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: was like, oh, sure, why not? And now I'm kind

437
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 1: of like, but you only get like four of those

438
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 1: a year, Like, don't do it like constantly or else

439
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: it's loses its luster. Charles, I'm sorry we brought up this.

440
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: I'm sorry Charles said you could not participate in and

441
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 1: yet we powered through and we pushed you out once more.

442
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: I should I should know, though, And like all I've

443
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: been thinking about is like I should have anticipated this conversation, Charles.

444
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: What if we were like, what is the who is

445
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 1: your Phoebe Bridgers? Mm hmmm, I don't have anybody right

446
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:47,719
Speaker 1: now really, Oh my god, anything, I don't have anything.

447
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 1: This is look I worked hard. Oh my god. I'm

448
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 1: not on a I'm not on a music train at

449
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: all right now, Like, and I'm not even on a

450
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 1: TV train. I'm not watching anything. I'm watching like, um

451
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: that impeachment and I'm watching Real Housewives at Everly Hills

452
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,119
Speaker 1: and that's all I'm watching. Like, I'm not I'm not

453
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: hooked in right now. Yeah, I have to say, music wise,

454
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 1: I really am not either. Nothing is inspiring to me.

455
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: It feels it all reeks of CIA interference. Yeah, I

456
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: have to agree. I and we talked about this a

457
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: little where I can't tell if it's simply depression or

458
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 1: if everyone's music is bad. And I'm going to kind

459
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 1: of lean towards everyone's music is bad right now because

460
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:42,159
Speaker 1: nothing's clickings. Have you seen Billy Eilish in those like

461
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 1: Disney Plus promos for like the concert or whatever that

462
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 1: she's doing for. I've seen like previews of like it's

463
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: like partially animated or something. There's like an animated her

464
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:57,880
Speaker 1: element that's Lizie McGuire called she wants her stick back,

465
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: And I, honestly, I guess I've only seen like the

466
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 1: promo image. But it's just weird. He's just like an

467
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: adult in like a ballgown. No, it's just it's just

468
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:14,639
Speaker 1: really interesting how like all female musicians, like pop stars,

469
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: they go from being like a punk and then they

470
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,000
Speaker 1: have to be in a ballgown with by the time

471
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 1: they hit eighteen, they have to be like like a

472
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: nineteen forties ballgowns. Like, yeah, they really rushed her through that.

473
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,360
Speaker 1: She seemed to go through a speed a speed war.

474
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 1: I think that they could have let Billy be green

475
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 1: hair for one more album cycle. Yeah, it's like Gaga.

476
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 1: Gaga got into a ball down at what six? Yeah, yeah,

477
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: I was gonna do Now she's gonna be in like

478
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 1: a pant suit. I was about to say, yeah, yeah,

479
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 1: that's the only way forward. Is like for her next album,

480
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: she's literally like in a Hillary Clinton pants suit with

481
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:05,720
Speaker 1: like giant and then the train conductor, Yeah, train conductor.

482
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 1: And then for album number four, she's literally a grandma

483
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: like on her deathbed the ballot about the life she

484
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 1: once lived and she's like twenty three, Um, should we

485
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 1: introduce her topic. Let's introduce your topic. I'm I'm, I'm ready,

486
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 1: And it has been hinted at in fact as a

487
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 1: site of disease, well, the side of disease testing at

488
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: least and disease. Well, of course, the disease was there,

489
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 1: and we can't erase the fact that the disease did

490
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 1: in fact exist in that airport for a time. Yes,

491
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: and the disease testing site was there because of the

492
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: amount of disease that exists in that location. Disease. Disease

493
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: is queer too, so like we're already like we're moving

494
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 1: it away. Yes, disease is queer. Thank you, Susan song

495
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: pag wow say that? Um okay, So Charles, what's her

496
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 1: topic today? The topic is airports. It's something I think

497
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: a lot of America has visited. Yeah, so it's relatable.

498
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: Which is it is relatable? I would say, if anything,

499
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 1: a lot of people in America have visited less than

500
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:19,479
Speaker 1: people in other places who are more worldly. Whoa whoad.

501
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 1: That's right. Americans are provincial. We're we're we're we are

502
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: trying to be more um regimented, and how we ask

503
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: about the topic, like what is it that makes airports

504
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 1: straight for you? What makes airports straight for me is

505
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: a few things. Weight Also, I want to pause for

506
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: one second. George, I don't agree with you that we're

507
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 1: trying to be more regiments in question asking. And the

508
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: fact that you said that as if that's like something

509
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 1: we talked about, I think is really ignorant. And you're

510
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,000
Speaker 1: um pulling me into something that we literally discussed at

511
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 1: some point. How we want this this conversation happened. Yeah,

512
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: it might have happened like before a summer or whatever,

513
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: but that was a lifetime ago. I'm a different person

514
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: now and I love our freewheeling. Oh so you no

515
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: longer want to make the podcast more regimented? Oh god no?

516
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,840
Speaker 1: Oh great, So Charles, let's talk more about Phoebe Bridgers.

517
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 1: Then when you know about that we made you talk

518
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,960
Speaker 1: about for ten minutes, we're about not talking about things

519
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,719
Speaker 1: I don't know about. Okay, George, I'm sorry. I just

520
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,959
Speaker 1: didn't like we can ask about the topic. I just like,

521
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 1: you know, I just don't want to say like we're

522
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 1: I don't want to say it like we're doing like

523
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: a medicine or something. Okay, how about I asked Charles

524
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 1: again and then you interrupt him again right when you

525
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 1: started answering my question. Okay, go for it. Okay, Charles,

526
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: what is what makes airports straight? For you? I just

527
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: want to say that this kind of in fighting is

528
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: why we don't have a gay president. I agree, that's

529
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 1: actually true, and I do it a million times over.

530
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 1: It's important to keep in fighting so that no one

531
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 1: rises to a position of power and then becomes neoliberal.

532
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,479
Speaker 1: What if we never talked about the topic. I just

533
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 1: think if there was a gay president, that would be

534
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: distracting for me as you a citizen, because then I

535
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:02,479
Speaker 1: would think that potentially I could have sex with him

536
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 1: at some point. Well, and we would also be constantly

537
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 1: arguing about whether he's a daddy or a baby or

538
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: a baby daddy or daddy baby, and that is like,

539
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 1: that's like not And then suddenly he presses the nuclear

540
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: button because he's like having sex against it. Oh, in

541
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 1: our lifetimes, we will we will have a president whose

542
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 1: nudes leak and that will be so weird, that's true,

543
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 1: and that president will be Joe Biden. Okay, Charles, what wait?

544
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 1: We actually okay, I'm sorry I did all that. Um Okay, Charles,

545
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: before we ever discussed the topic, if had one think

546
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: about how to face we would all be like we

547
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 1: would all like all all us gaze would be like

548
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: trying to get a dinner ticket to the White House

549
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: and talking so much shit we would we would have

550
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: It would have exposed how shitty we are. Oh my god.

551
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 1: It would have been so annoying. And Twitter would have

552
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 1: been like the word worst than it already is. I

553
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 1: would be doing the podcast from the West Wing right now. Okay,

554
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:12,080
Speaker 1: that's kind of cool. Okay, So airports to me are

555
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 1: straight because the people are insane, Like everyone you see

556
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 1: in an airport is insane. And you see and you

557
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: find out what America is and even then, that's the

558
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 1: America that can afford to be at an airport, and

559
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: they're the craziest people in America. And sure also it's FEMA,

560
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: it's military, it's d m V, and it's um children

561
00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 1: of men, it's oppression, it's repression. And also the horniest

562
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 1: you ever are is at an airport, and the cruziest

563
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: and when you see another game man, even if they're

564
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 1: not even your species of gay, like, it's like so

565
00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 1: charged it is, that's so true. That is so true. Um,

566
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: I didn't ever think about it. Now that you're saying this,

567
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,480
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, that makes sense, like the reason it's

568
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 1: so sexually charged is because it's such a straight space.

569
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,919
Speaker 1: And so you're like, oh, that's safety that right there,

570
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 1: Like you are my only hope. Yeah. And also you're

571
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: like you're trying to understand your space in society, like

572
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: in a whole new way when you're in an airport

573
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,359
Speaker 1: and it's like, okay, am I better than everyone? Am

574
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,439
Speaker 1: I worse than everyone? And then when you like see

575
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 1: another game man or gay person or career person. I

576
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 1: assume everyone feels like that, like seeing them, you're gonna

577
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 1: get some kind of feedback loop about your worth and

578
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: being like the wait, am I hot in a space

579
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 1: where there's no other options? Like? Am I hot to you? Right? Right? Right?

580
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:55,280
Speaker 1: That's all that's all you have? Yeah? I think, Um,

581
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,840
Speaker 1: the selfishness of airports that you talked about is like

582
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 1: a really good um that is very straight. It's very like, no,

583
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 1: my family comes first. Well you know, you said, like

584
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 1: people show their true selves, and it's like, well, it's

585
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 1: dog eat dog, it's lord flies. It is. If I

586
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,479
Speaker 1: see a gay man at an airport, I will either

587
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,320
Speaker 1: have sex with him in the supply closet or murder

588
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 1: him in public on the spot, which is actually what

589
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:27,960
Speaker 1: all gay connection is. Yeah, it literalizes it and it's like,

590
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: am I gonna fun or killing you? That's literally all

591
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 1: yeah no, And it makes and the airport makes the

592
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 1: subtext text like there's no ways around it. Like you

593
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,879
Speaker 1: see someone, you will either slap them or take them

594
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: by the hair into the unisex bathroom. Yeah. Now, I'm like,

595
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,720
Speaker 1: have either of you had sex at an airport? I have, oh, dish,

596
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 1: dish dish. It was, Um, it was with my husband.

597
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: I'm just staying um it was. It was our honeymoon,

598
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: it was our wedding day. We got married at their barn.

599
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 1: Gate to be or not to be with the flower

600
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:26,000
Speaker 1: girl was on the baggage claim, right, instead of everyone

601
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:28,280
Speaker 1: walking down the aisle, everyone is just on the baggage

602
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:34,320
Speaker 1: claim thing going around. Wait, that would be so iconic,

603
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: just like circular table seating around. Wait, don't you couldn't

604
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: you see that as like a gimmicky straight wedding, Like

605
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 1: people are like, well, yeah, we met, we travel so

606
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 1: much that the airport's actually home to us, and then

00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 1: they like have a bull wedding at at gate beat.

608
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 1: It would absolutely go viral. It would go viral um

00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: would play that song. That's like, can we pretend that

00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,879
Speaker 1: airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? Wow?

615
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:29,840

00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,240
Speaker 1: tell us about when you had sex at an airport.

619
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: It was just oral sex. I just penetrated the mouth. Um,

620
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:50,640
Speaker 1: it wasn't that's Charles, that's sex. That's still sex. It counts.

621
00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 1: That's the president's sex. Yeah. Just because your whole is

622
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 1: too big to have the other kind of sex doesn't

623
00:37:56,280 --> 00:38:03,320
Speaker 1: mean you're a virgin. Yeah, clearly means the opposite. Now, Charles, question,

624
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 1: did you reciprocate the oral sex? Oh? I so this

625
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 1: was in Rome, in the Rome airport. I left. So

626
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,399
Speaker 1: my friends, one of my best friends, my good friend

627
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 1: from college. I just don'tote her. This girl in my dorm. Actually,

628
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: I've never met her. Um, she married the owner of

629
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:36,120
Speaker 1: Italy and to whoa Lifestyles of the Rich the nose

630
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 1: to then have your wedding in Rome. If you invented Italy,

631
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: it was so he Um, he invented the formula for Italy. Um,

632
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, what is the formula? Just that it's like, no, no,

633
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just laughing at the word inventing a

634
00:38:55,160 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: restaurant company. But he they got married, Uh, like southern Italy.

635
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 1: And then I like had to fly through. This is

636
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: my friend Brady Elliott. She's walking through the background and um,

637
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: as I'm talking about someone giving me head in maath room. Um.

638
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 1: And it was Grinder. I had like a bunch of

639
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 1: hours to kill at the Rome airport. Um. I was

640
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 1: in an open relationship at the time, which I feel

641
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 1: like there was something about like my ex staying in

642
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 1: Italy and me leaving where I was like, well I

643
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 1: should just squeeze something in like the last minute. Um.

644
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 1: And this guy was Grinder. We met in a stall

645
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,840
Speaker 1: and he was hot, but he was like a Seattle

646
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:50,080
Speaker 1: gay and he was probably like mid forties, I would say,

647
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:56,320
Speaker 1: and weathered like like parties, just parties, like always parties.

648
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: That was my vibe. That was the vibe I got

649
00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: from them. And he gave me head in the bathroom

650
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 1: and it was like some weird Italian stall where like

651
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 1: you could see like only the feet, like there's like

652
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 1: three inches of space down below, and so like I

653
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,720
Speaker 1: just felt very aware that people like could definitely sence

654
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:17,920
Speaker 1: like two pairs of feet. Um. Yeah. And then we

655
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 1: flew on the same flight and I was like get out,

656
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,960
Speaker 1: like just helt like you're like you're not supposed to

657
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 1: exist anymore. But then like at one point, I like

658
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,799
Speaker 1: fully he watched by me in the aisle of the

659
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 1: plane and like made eyes with me and kind of

660
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 1: like we know what we did, like look or whatever.

661
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: And it occurred to me that I had been just

662
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: like sleeping, mouths open like the whole light and like

663
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:42,920
Speaker 1: definitely he had the public book by just see me

664
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:49,799
Speaker 1: looking like like a stupid bitch. Wow. That sounds terrifying.

665
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 1: I'm glad you didn't get in trouble. I know it

666
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 1: was because italyst seems crazy, like it seems like they

667
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:59,520
Speaker 1: could have like done something to me. No Italy, those

668
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 1: countries don't actually have police forces. Yeah, their chill um

669
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 1: I've been. I've definitely done like the grinder at the

670
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 1: airport to be like there's got to be something going on,

671
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: I feel, but I've never succeeded. I'd like talked to

672
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 1: somebody like randomly, which we've talked to people, but I

673
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 1: mean I came thrilling. Once again. I wish I was

674
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: the type of person who but if anything, just the

675
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,840
Speaker 1: thrill of talking just now I sound like a complete

676
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 1: but just the thrill of talking to someone at the

677
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,280
Speaker 1: airport and being like we're twenty ft away, it's hot,

678
00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 1: and I like, like I met like I met the

679
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:42,200
Speaker 1: man and like sat across room was like high and

680
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,920
Speaker 1: it was like but I was like okay, bye, and

681
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 1: it was we're both trying to compete with Charles literally

682
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: getting head in the bathroom stong, Like, yeah, I've talked

683
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: to people like I've definitely like gone to the duty

684
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: free store and gotten like a sample of clone and

685
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,880
Speaker 1: then around. It's also funny that we're like airports are straight.

686
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:06,279
Speaker 1: Here's all the ways you can have gay sex in them. Yeah,

687
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 1: well that's what makes that. I mean, it's like parks

688
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 1: are straight mm hmmm, and yet they're full of people

689
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,879
Speaker 1: having sex parks are actually queer. I think they're their

690
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 1: radical community. You know, it's confusing because parts can mean

691
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 1: a few things. Like parts can mean like if you

692
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: go to Madison Square Park, um, the Shake Shock Park,

693
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:36,239
Speaker 1: like like a plaque that says like Chelsea Clinton is

694
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:41,919
Speaker 1: the president of this park. Like that's that's straight. It's

695
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,440
Speaker 1: just some parks have a shake Shack and are also

696
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,920
Speaker 1: ruled by Chelsea Clinton, whereas other parks are just full

697
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 1: of people gaping. Actually, I don't even know. Maybe that's

698
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 1: very queer. A Shake Shock Park with Chelsea Clinton is

699
00:42:56,840 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 1: that's drag. It's it's camp. That's like a challenge. That's

700
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:03,880
Speaker 1: a that's a drag race. Challenge is like we've partnered

701
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 1: with the park run by Chelsea Clinton with a shake shack,

702
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,719
Speaker 1: and we want you to remake the shake Shack uniforms

703
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: and make them more for pride. It's like it's like

704
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: it's the high school jock dressing up like um, like

705
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,959
Speaker 1: a cheerleader. Oh yeah, I have a question. Are you

706
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 1: each of you people who dresses in any particular way

707
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 1: for the airport? Mm hmm? How do you dress? Charles?

708
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 1: I want to dress like I'm famous, but don't worry

709
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:40,320
Speaker 1: about it. That's exactly the correct way to dress genius,

710
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:42,879
Speaker 1: and the way to do that is to basically wear

711
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 1: sweatpants but expensive sunglasses. Yeah, and maybe even a hat

712
00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,919
Speaker 1: to Yeah, yes, exactly. Yeah. I kind of like buoy

713
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 1: it up a little bit for the airport, but in

714
00:43:53,120 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 1: a way that's still like I'm I'm gay, Charles. Your

715
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 1: airport look is screaming boy, but gay boy but gay. Um. Yeah.

716
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 1: I always like to look like um, like an old

717
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 1: photo of someone traveling. Like my dream is like to

718
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 1: be like like not old, like not that old. I

719
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 1: mean we're like someone in the nineties or eighties who's

720
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,239
Speaker 1: like traveling like in their post college life. Like I

721
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 1: love to wear like a faded jean and like an

722
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,680
Speaker 1: old shirt and be like look at me, like timeless.

723
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 1: Last time I was at the airport, I was wearing

724
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:41,240
Speaker 1: maybe like jeans and a white T shirt or something simple,

725
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 1: and I was in line to go to Greece and

726
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 1: there were the line was maybe like ten people. Along

727
00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,480
Speaker 1: of those ten people, I sort of God, there were

728
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 1: two fat gay fashion couples in just within those ten people,

729
00:44:56,560 --> 00:45:00,400
Speaker 1: including one couple where both men in it are wearing

730
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:06,800
Speaker 1: matching Tom Brown looks head to toe including hats, and

731
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 1: like there's nothing like like I understand everyone has a

732
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 1: different life, but there is. I do think there should be,

733
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:19,239
Speaker 1: like there is an unwritten contract that like everyone's kind

734
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:23,399
Speaker 1: of doing a bit of a It's that like you're

735
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,320
Speaker 1: not supposed to look dressed up at the airport. Everyone

736
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 1: can do their own version of celebrity on vacation, but

737
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,120
Speaker 1: like you shouldn't be in head to toe Tom Brown,

738
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: and it made me I was. And then they were

739
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,720
Speaker 1: having they were like really gabbing with the women checking

740
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 1: the passports, and I already knew, like I'm going to

741
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:38,120
Speaker 1: get there and she's not going to think I'm the

742
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 1: cool gay. I feel like they they're like trying too hard.

743
00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,680
Speaker 1: I feel like you're definitely cool gay. They're like desperate

744
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 1: gates that like yeah, maybe they're maybe she's laughing with them,

745
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:50,879
Speaker 1: but it's because she feels bad for them because they

746
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 1: tried too hard. Yeah, people who like dress that hard

747
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,799
Speaker 1: at the airport. Though, it's like, wait, do you not

748
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 1: do is this the only time we've seen other people

749
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 1: like like are you ever doing anything? I mean, I'm

750
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 1: surely they are if they're like have access to Tom

751
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 1: Brown clothes. Here's what Here's the thing is I used

752
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,240
Speaker 1: to feel. I used to be like, if you dressed

753
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,960
Speaker 1: up at an airport that's so desperate, like what like

754
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 1: you clearly have some sort of um severe mental illness.

755
00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:22,239
Speaker 1: And then I thought, what if it's the opposite. It's

756
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 1: that it is people who just like by default, always

757
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:28,040
Speaker 1: looks so good. So they're like, yeah, the airport's just

758
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,319
Speaker 1: another day in my life. It's not a different thing.

759
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 1: I'm not going to like dress down just because I

760
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:33,839
Speaker 1: have to be on a plane and that is even

761
00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,719
Speaker 1: more scary to me where I'm like, oh, yeah, I

762
00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 1: guess you're just wearing Tom Brown. It's because it's because

763
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 1: travel is triggering, Like we are really triggered, like the

764
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,839
Speaker 1: illusion of trapped. Like there was some on my when

765
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:50,040
Speaker 1: I got on the Spain flight. There is like, uh

766
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,560
Speaker 1: like one of those little like ads that play before

767
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,000
Speaker 1: like on your screen on the on the flight, and

768
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,400
Speaker 1: it was like for like MasterCard or Delta or something,

769
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 1: and it was like the slogan was like travel makes

770
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:06,399
Speaker 1: you whole again, I think, And there's just a part

771
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: of me that's like damn, it's true, Like like it's

772
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 1: like the one like, it's the one religion. I'm like,

773
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 1: that's the ultimate Travel is ultimately a true religion. Yes,

774
00:47:16,680 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 1: there's something very triggering about travel where we actually, I

775
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 1: think it means so much more than it does. Well. Also,

776
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,040
Speaker 1: the idea that you are and I really like, I

777
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:33,799
Speaker 1: really romanticize travel and very much wish I could be

778
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 1: traveling all the time. However, the idea that like it

779
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 1: makes you more worldly and therefore more somehow like progressive

780
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 1: or interesting. Just the data is there that is not true.

781
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 1: Some of the dumbest and most simple people I know

782
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:51,360
Speaker 1: travel the most. Well, the smartest people are the worst

783
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 1: people in the world too, or the people who consider

784
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,120
Speaker 1: themselves to be the smartest. That's right, that's right. Let's

785
00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,279
Speaker 1: have the stupidest points of view. There was this time

786
00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 1: I was in Paris and uh, um, you'll go, don't

787
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:11,520
Speaker 1: worry um. And I was at Shakespeare in Company Books,

788
00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 1: which is like now just like a tourist trap basically,

789
00:48:14,360 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: And I was like eighteen or nineteen or it was

790
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:22,720
Speaker 1: like college time, and Walt Whitman's grand nephew or nephew

791
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 1: or something owned it, and I this is all about

792
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 1: my pay rade, Like I don't know anything, like in

793
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,120
Speaker 1: my mind, he wrote like on Golden Pond, I don't

794
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 1: know what halt Liman did, but like he like George

795
00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 1: Whitman another George was like the owner of Shakespeare Company,

796
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:41,680
Speaker 1: and like, all of a sudden, this girl also like

797
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:45,719
Speaker 1: ex pats are stupid and one of the worst things

798
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:47,560
Speaker 1: you can be as an ex words, like I think

799
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 1: in my mind that's like what you're talking about. And

800
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:53,360
Speaker 1: they're also ex pats are and I'm kind of probably

801
00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,359
Speaker 1: if you have um I read it like people will

802
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:57,920
Speaker 1: probably get mad at me for saying this, but I

803
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:02,480
Speaker 1: think that ex pats are okay good. They're always ugly

804
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 1: like x x fats are never people, um and but

805
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:11,840
Speaker 1: they're all they're the hornyest people. Um. And So anyway,

806
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 1: this girl like comes down and she's like George is

807
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 1: having a tea if anyone wants to come upstairs and

808
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:20,640
Speaker 1: have a tea or doing tea, and like every it

809
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:22,239
Speaker 1: was just like suddenly the twelve people that were in

810
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 1: the Bookshore were like George Whitman is having a tea

811
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:26,279
Speaker 1: and like I got sucked up into this thing and

812
00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:30,719
Speaker 1: like like a hobbit, like like top floor and people

813
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,360
Speaker 1: were just serving tea and he was shirtless and he

814
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:37,479
Speaker 1: was just like so gross and like ratty and like five,

815
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:39,720
Speaker 1: which is noble to be that old, but like also

816
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,080
Speaker 1: like he, I don't know, there's something kind of gross

817
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:45,239
Speaker 1: and narcissistic about him. And like everyone went around the

818
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 1: table and shared like an anecdote from their life. And

819
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,360
Speaker 1: this woman was like a teacher, like you see Berkeley

820
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:52,759
Speaker 1: who sat next to me, and she was like, I

821
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:56,239
Speaker 1: think it's very important to write a bicycle, um and

822
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 1: just like that, like like in my mind, that's like

823
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 1: travel travel people. Yes, yeah, well there's there's like ex

824
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:07,880
Speaker 1: pat there's that kind of like um, I don't know,

825
00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:10,799
Speaker 1: the Paris like people, or like people who live in

826
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 1: Berlin like that. That that kind of ex pack culture.

827
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:16,719
Speaker 1: And then there's the like dirty backpacker culture, which is

828
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 1: its own problem, which I'm still brainwashed by. Like in

829
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:22,880
Speaker 1: my mind, I'm still like and that's what I should

830
00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,160
Speaker 1: be doing. I know, I know. No, I feel the

831
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:27,880
Speaker 1: same way. The one time I was like in the

832
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,640
Speaker 1: peak of Iceland being cool before it was past. I

833
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:32,360
Speaker 1: went to Iceland by myself, and I was like I

834
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 1: stayed on a hostel and it was like all backpackers

835
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,720
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh they figured it out. Wow,

836
00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:41,680
Speaker 1: I've never had this fantasy. What are your parents like, Sam,

837
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 1: and what kind of trauma made you not want to

838
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:50,240
Speaker 1: travel to Iceland? I just the backpacking thing is maybe

839
00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 1: it's like what three Church of Christ know the my

840
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,279
Speaker 1: my dislike of or my distrust of backpacking culture is

841
00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:05,920
Speaker 1: um maybe based in some sort of internalized republicanism or something.

842
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:09,279
Speaker 1: But it's always been like, well that's not real, Like

843
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 1: that's not how, that's not a person's life there that

844
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:13,719
Speaker 1: they're doing that for what a month and then they're

845
00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 1: they're gonna come crawling back and get a job in

846
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:22,920
Speaker 1: sales or whatever crawling back. Yeah. It's also always like

847
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:25,920
Speaker 1: the richest kids that wanted to do that and like

848
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:27,879
Speaker 1: got to do that, and it was always like fuck

849
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,399
Speaker 1: you, you you get to like look poor for a year

850
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 1: and it's so annoying. I mean, something dark about me

851
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 1: is that as I get older, I more romanticized being

852
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,319
Speaker 1: with the shirtless year old in the bookstore rather than

853
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:44,360
Speaker 1: backpacking in Iceland. Like that actually sounds so nice to

854
00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:47,759
Speaker 1: me to quit everything and then be in Paris and

855
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 1: be part of a community of a bookstore. It's just

856
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 1: hard because like all the magic you feel when you're

857
00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 1: younger about the world, like the older you get them

858
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:01,600
Speaker 1: where you're just like, oh, it's just like it's just

859
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:05,280
Speaker 1: personality disorders. Like that's all, Like any source of magic

860
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:08,759
Speaker 1: is because somebody had a personality disorder, and like that's

861
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,799
Speaker 1: what that's like what the glamor of travel is. It's

862
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:16,000
Speaker 1: just narcissism. And it's the same. Like it's the same

863
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,760
Speaker 1: for the artistics, Like it is the same for people

864
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:21,239
Speaker 1: who romanticize like artistic types, like that is its own

865
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:23,440
Speaker 1: personality short, and it's exactly the same for people who

866
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 1: are like Republicans and romanticized like businessmen and CEOs. It's

867
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 1: just two different kinds of personality disorders. Yeah. Um. And

868
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:35,960
Speaker 1: also speaking of romanticizing things in a misguided way, like

869
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 1: as much as it is so nice to get to

870
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:43,200
Speaker 1: know other cultures, you slowly do realize that all people

871
00:52:43,239 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 1: have such similar flaws. Yeah, And that literally every place

872
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:53,359
Speaker 1: in the world is looks exactly the same. Like like

873
00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 1: I was in Barcelona like two or three weeks ago,

874
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,440
Speaker 1: and I was playing again. I went with my two

875
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:02,280
Speaker 1: best friends from high school and we just started playing

876
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:05,279
Speaker 1: game of being Like where else could this be and

877
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 1: we would just be like Melbourne and it was like

878
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:12,040
Speaker 1: and then it was like, okay, Pittsburgh, it was like actually, yeah,

879
00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:15,160
Speaker 1: like it's it's just like you just started to be like, actually,

880
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:19,040
Speaker 1: only America looks like America and then everything, I mean,

881
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 1: the West and the East have like a different like

882
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,560
Speaker 1: road sign culture, you know, like it's just about road

883
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:28,480
Speaker 1: signs cotimately, and like I don't know if I complainely

884
00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:30,440
Speaker 1: agree with this, I know this is this is a

885
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:35,399
Speaker 1: real stretch. Only America has these like big green road

886
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,680
Speaker 1: signs and like, and then the rest of the world,

887
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:40,279
Speaker 1: like road signs are like a little smaller, They're like

888
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:42,920
Speaker 1: a little bit more like shape launches. Like right now,

889
00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,600
Speaker 1: I definitely agree there. I guess where I'm where I'm

890
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:49,279
Speaker 1: hitting a wall is extrapolating much else from just the

891
00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:54,600
Speaker 1: road signs. Wait, extracting what like what why are road

892
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:58,320
Speaker 1: signs your north star? Here? Like okay, so road signs

893
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: are different, but other things can also be first. But

894
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:05,399
Speaker 1: but that's just like the the aesthetic. The aesthetics says

895
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 1: it all. I mean, come on, we all got degrees

896
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,239
Speaker 1: in marketing, that's right. We do all have degrees in

897
00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:13,840
Speaker 1: marketing and I My grad school was in RhoD Signed design,

898
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,239
Speaker 1: so I know this stuff like the back of my hand.

899
00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:21,279
Speaker 1: But I think, like, honestly, if anything, the difference between

900
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:24,080
Speaker 1: America and other places is just the lack of history.

901
00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:27,400
Speaker 1: Like I think that's why American people fetishized travel so much,

902
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 1: because they're just like the idea of being somewhere where

903
00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:36,319
Speaker 1: the culture isn't years old. Yeah, and that I think

904
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,680
Speaker 1: you can get from basically anywhere, like you can go

905
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:42,800
Speaker 1: to like Japan or Paris, and that what an American

906
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:45,200
Speaker 1: looks for is that is just being somewhere that feels

907
00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:47,359
Speaker 1: like it has a sense of history more so than

908
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:52,239
Speaker 1: the specifically. What do you think you look unconvinced? No,

909
00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:55,080
Speaker 1: I'm just I feel like I had like a strong

910
00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:57,120
Speaker 1: point earlier, but then I feel like we took so

911
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:58,879
Speaker 1: many trends that I don't think it's even worth holding

912
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:01,919
Speaker 1: onto anymore. No, no hold on to it. I'm trying

913
00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:05,520
Speaker 1: to reconcile, like like my my urge to support you

914
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:09,000
Speaker 1: versus like the selfishness of like trying to remember my point. Well,

915
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:14,239
Speaker 1: your point was that road signs are different in America. No,

916
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 1: that was a huge point and the notoriously true. Um,

917
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 1: it's true. No, I like that. I guess it's funny

918
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:25,040
Speaker 1: because I was so with you and I was like, yes,

919
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:27,759
Speaker 1: everyone is the same. It is a misguided impulse to

920
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:31,400
Speaker 1: want to like find something different, and then something within me,

921
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:34,320
Speaker 1: maybe some nucleus of idealism, was like, wait a minute,

922
00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:36,880
Speaker 1: I do want to go to Paris and be in

923
00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:39,840
Speaker 1: the bookstore. Yeah. I was trying to agree with you.

924
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: I was trying to find my way in, but I

925
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:45,000
Speaker 1: couldn't help but feel that at my core I didn't

926
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 1: quite either understand the point or agree with The point

927
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:57,759
Speaker 1: was just that like only in America looks like America,

928
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:05,040
Speaker 1: and then every other country has smaller roads, tighter. Everything's

929
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:08,080
Speaker 1: like a little tighter like everywhere else, like literally everywhere

930
00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:11,800
Speaker 1: else likely big lots, and you can just take big

931
00:56:11,840 --> 00:56:14,359
Speaker 1: turns on the road like everywhere else, like a tight

932
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:19,279
Speaker 1: little squeeze like everywhere else. Well, it's interesting how you're

933
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:24,799
Speaker 1: you're focusing on road road life as like the nucleus

934
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 1: of culture. I'm hearing you, and I'm understanding your like

935
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:33,319
Speaker 1: I do a great I just don't get like what

936
00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:37,400
Speaker 1: the point it's like, like, it's just that, like it

937
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:40,360
Speaker 1: looks different and that's what we like think too much about.

938
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:44,279
Speaker 1: Don't understand why you can't go all the way to

939
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:47,359
Speaker 1: like the existential. I can't go here, let me try, so,

940
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:52,000
Speaker 1: I I think I just like, no, you're right, you're right,

941
00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:54,000
Speaker 1: And actually one of the worst things you can accuse

942
00:56:54,120 --> 00:57:00,680
Speaker 1: us of is not going existential. Here's what maybe side Analytically,

943
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:05,799
Speaker 1: Americans are so used to this expanse of space, and

944
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:10,160
Speaker 1: they actually want to be dombed by a tiny road,

945
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:16,439
Speaker 1: like they want to feel claustrophobic for once. Right again,

946
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:19,800
Speaker 1: it's all about the roads and needles signs, like if

947
00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:22,400
Speaker 1: America is all about you know, and I'm not going

948
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:24,040
Speaker 1: into whether this is true or not, but like in

949
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:27,560
Speaker 1: the American imaginations, all that freedom, personal freedom, whatever, they

950
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 1: actually want to feel more contained because the overwhelming freedom

951
00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:38,120
Speaker 1: of America is too much for them. Right, I'm focused

952
00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 1: on something else, the roads and the signs of there's

953
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:45,240
Speaker 1: the roads and the signs. I'm saying, I think that

954
00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:47,040
Speaker 1: I think when I'm actually trying, I'm going to be

955
00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:48,960
Speaker 1: completely honest with you, Yes, I think what I'm actually

956
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,800
Speaker 1: trying to get at is that I think that America.

957
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:56,840
Speaker 1: Americans assume that America is the default, like obviously, but

958
00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:59,400
Speaker 1: when and when in fact it's the exception, that's what

959
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,280
Speaker 1: that's Oh, this is like, I mean, I don't act

960
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:07,200
Speaker 1: like it's such a small point of view. I no, no,

961
00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:11,040
Speaker 1: I compline, that's childish, that's I mean. And you know, Charles,

962
00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:12,960
Speaker 1: as someone who went to high school outside of America,

963
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 1: maybe I cleared that late because for me, America is

964
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:19,880
Speaker 1: not the default. I well, listen, I grew up in Mexico, Honey, Yeah,

965
00:58:20,040 --> 00:58:22,520
Speaker 1: I grew up in Acapulco, Mexico and on the border

966
00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:24,640
Speaker 1: of Texas in Mexico. Wow, Sam, how does it feel

967
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:28,440
Speaker 1: to be the only American in this zoom Um? It's

968
00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:30,920
Speaker 1: such an honor to be part of such a multi

969
00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:35,960
Speaker 1: national podcast. I love our global scale and I'm so

970
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:40,560
Speaker 1: happy to provide the only real American perspective. I can't.

971
00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:43,760
Speaker 1: I can't because I was I'm a third culture We're

972
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:48,360
Speaker 1: third culture kids. Did you ever read that BuzzFeed article?

973
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 1: It was like, I mean, I've read many things, there's

974
00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 1: nothing that like, there's something. I have an allergic raction

975
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:57,840
Speaker 1: of the term third culture kid because to me, it

976
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:03,000
Speaker 1: like it m it's about this like very specific type

977
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 1: of like rich kid. I went to college with that's

978
00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 1: like randomly going on private jets every weekend but doesn't

979
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 1: tell anyone about it. And like I do think I'm

980
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:15,560
Speaker 1: I guess I fit the definition and that I've moved

981
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,320
Speaker 1: back and forth, and I spent some time in other

982
00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:20,000
Speaker 1: countries when I was younger, but like, I feel very

983
00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:23,800
Speaker 1: rooted in Greece because like both my parents are from

984
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:25,440
Speaker 1: there and that was my friend. It's like a very

985
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:27,520
Speaker 1: clear cut thing. It's just then I spent a lot

986
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:30,560
Speaker 1: of time here, so I feel like but like, to me,

987
00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 1: third culture kid is like your dad is secretly a

988
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:36,360
Speaker 1: billionaire and you grew up in Brussels and then also

989
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,880
Speaker 1: then um spent some time in Argentina and then went

990
00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:46,240
Speaker 1: to college at like Northeastern. Yes, totally, it's like, yeah,

991
00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:48,240
Speaker 1: it's that. It's like you grew up in Hong Kong

992
00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:51,720
Speaker 1: but then went to boarding school in Switzerland. Exactly. You're

993
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:57,320
Speaker 1: actually a horrible person. I'm now realizing, Like I'm not

994
00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 1: realizing that. Then. Airports, how have even more weight for

995
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:05,760
Speaker 1: you because you probably associate them with your childhood. I

996
01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,200
Speaker 1: do because my mom is also a flight attendant, UM,

997
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 1: and she's been a flight attendant since nine, so that's it,

998
01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:13,880
Speaker 1: like I do. And I also have this you know one,

999
01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:16,680
Speaker 1: this is actually to pathologize and I just got this

1000
01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:20,520
Speaker 1: tattoo where it's a plane. Oh my goodness, my god,

1001
01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:24,280
Speaker 1: you are really burying the lead. I know. I never

1002
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:31,960
Speaker 1: a son of airport culture. And wow, I don't know

1003
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 1: why I hide myself so unconsciously like that. This is

1004
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:39,480
Speaker 1: literally the first conversation I've had like on the other

1005
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:45,040
Speaker 1: side of quarantine. So I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm being

1006
01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:47,240
Speaker 1: the weirdest version of You're not being the weirdest person.

1007
01:00:47,320 --> 01:00:50,480
Speaker 1: I actually think it's so interesting that you that we

1008
01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:55,160
Speaker 1: got to the root of this together collaboratively. It's all

1009
01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:58,320
Speaker 1: mommy issues. We got. It's all mommy issues. My mom

1010
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:01,640
Speaker 1: was pretty like she looked like she's he's a fat

1011
01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:04,120
Speaker 1: hag at heart. If we even say that word, and

1012
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 1: I think we still do, actually depended on behalf of

1013
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:18,040
Speaker 1: your mom's gun ass fucking no, Charles. She loves you

1014
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 1: because you're her son. Yeah, not because you're gay. Slowly,

1015
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:29,920
Speaker 1: I slowly reveal I'm straight at heart. That would be

1016
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:31,960
Speaker 1: a slay. This would be written up in Vulture and

1017
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:33,680
Speaker 1: a heartbeat if you wanted to go ahead and come

1018
01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:36,600
Speaker 1: out a straight. I do love the idea that you

1019
01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:39,200
Speaker 1: picked airports because you're trying to work through your feelings

1020
01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:42,680
Speaker 1: about your mom being a flight attendant. I think probably

1021
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 1: true on some I mean, I've always liked the mom

1022
01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:47,760
Speaker 1: to fight, but it's a very in my mom My

1023
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:52,919
Speaker 1: mom and my mom fight andlip once again, my own mind,

1024
01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:57,280
Speaker 1: my mind, that's only mine, not my mom's mind. Um she,

1025
01:01:57,440 --> 01:01:59,320
Speaker 1: I don't know. She it's a very glamor like she

1026
01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 1: was a go go answer, like they like would lease

1027
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 1: her out dancer. Oh my god, iconic. She said she

1028
01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:13,320
Speaker 1: was for years, like a while being a flight attendant. Yeah,

1029
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,480
Speaker 1: maybe I shouldn't say that, honey, it was the sixties. No,

1030
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:19,560
Speaker 1: we'll bleep it out. We'll bleep out. We'll believe about

1031
01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:23,480
Speaker 1: the second half of the bleept three, the three key words.

1032
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:26,480
Speaker 1: We'll beleep out the word acid, and we'll just say

1033
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:28,560
Speaker 1: she was on bleep and let people fill in their

1034
01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:32,640
Speaker 1: own sort of substance something much worse. Yeah, let their

1035
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:36,680
Speaker 1: imaginations run wild. Um, wait, randomly, I think we should

1036
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:38,600
Speaker 1: do our final segment. I know I agree, And you

1037
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:40,200
Speaker 1: know what else is even more random. I don't know

1038
01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:42,040
Speaker 1: what I'm going to say for it. Oh, I actually

1039
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 1: do have one, and I know it's like a little

1040
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:46,840
Speaker 1: bit trite for our own podcast, but I think it's

1041
01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:50,320
Speaker 1: an important as our first true recording back. I think

1042
01:02:50,320 --> 01:02:54,160
Speaker 1: it's relevant, Um so Charles. Our final segment that's called

1043
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:56,160
Speaker 1: shout outs. In the grand tradition of straight culture, we

1044
01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:58,560
Speaker 1: give sort of a radio style shout out UM to

1045
01:02:58,800 --> 01:03:05,120
Speaker 1: anything that we roughly um, and I'll go first, UM,

1046
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 1: what's up, freakent losers. I just want to give a quick,

1047
01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:13,720
Speaker 1: maybe trite, a probably predictable shout out to the Doves

1048
01:03:13,800 --> 01:03:18,120
Speaker 1: remix on the Donic CHROMATICA. George's rolling his eyes, Charles

1049
01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:20,480
Speaker 1: is thinking less of me right now, but I just

1050
01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 1: want to say that it really hit me hard, and

1051
01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:26,080
Speaker 1: it's kind of funny. It seems like she's playing with

1052
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:29,120
Speaker 1: herself and she is laughing and being like, I know

1053
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 1: the song is stupid. It just repeats the same line

1054
01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:34,080
Speaker 1: over and over, which you know I love, and it

1055
01:03:34,160 --> 01:03:36,760
Speaker 1: has a funny little sin solo. I know I was

1056
01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:41,000
Speaker 1: talking about how music does not hit me, but unfortunately, Um,

1057
01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:44,160
Speaker 1: the one Doves remix is the best song I've ever

1058
01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:46,880
Speaker 1: heard in my entire life. Put it in the moment.

1059
01:03:47,400 --> 01:03:51,240
Speaker 1: Whoo whoo all right, I'll I'm gonna just wing it.

1060
01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:55,040
Speaker 1: Um what freaks and losers, and the words of my

1061
01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:57,280
Speaker 1: co host Sam Taggart, I want to give a quick

1062
01:03:57,280 --> 01:04:00,320
Speaker 1: shout out to diet coke. That's right. I have recently

1063
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:05,320
Speaker 1: discovered diet coke in something I hadn't had in many

1064
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:08,200
Speaker 1: decades because I thought it was bad for you because

1065
01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:10,720
Speaker 1: it is the color brown. But I've recently decided that

1066
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:14,240
Speaker 1: it's actually probably good for you, and I would rather

1067
01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:18,560
Speaker 1: have that than alcohol sometimes because in my current conception

1068
01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:21,160
Speaker 1: of the world, that's better. And also, guess what else,

1069
01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:24,280
Speaker 1: I've been going to movie theaters recently after a punishing

1070
01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:27,600
Speaker 1: two years of quarantine, and there is nothing better than

1071
01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:32,600
Speaker 1: a refreshing, approximately six hundred gallon cup of diet coke

1072
01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:34,760
Speaker 1: that I can drink and go to the bathroom three

1073
01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:37,600
Speaker 1: times in the span of the film The card Counter

1074
01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:40,320
Speaker 1: from Paul Schrader, And so there is nothing I can

1075
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:44,920
Speaker 1: recommend more than going out there, being yourself and buying

1076
01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:47,560
Speaker 1: a fifteen pack of diet coke and having it all

1077
01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:50,800
Speaker 1: in the span of one day and a half. Whoo whoo,

1078
01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:54,920
Speaker 1: oh my god, I don't even have a good one.

1079
01:04:55,480 --> 01:05:00,960
Speaker 1: We should have warned you. It's it's we're we're rusty. Um,

1080
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:06,400
Speaker 1: what's up, freaks and losers. This is Charles Rogers just

1081
01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:09,000
Speaker 1: saying I want to give a huge shout out to

1082
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:14,040
Speaker 1: quarantining in hotels, but not um, but not telling them

1083
01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:18,600
Speaker 1: that's what you're doing. Um. It was. I gotta say

1084
01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:22,680
Speaker 1: the staff of the White Hotel that I really wondered why.

1085
01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:26,240
Speaker 1: I was like, just leave it at the door, and um,

1086
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:29,919
Speaker 1: just slipping money under the door. And let me tell you,

1087
01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:34,000
Speaker 1: I the CDC wanted me to quarantine at the Newark

1088
01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:37,240
Speaker 1: Airport Hotel and I just could not do that because

1089
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,240
Speaker 1: that was free, and I just I couldn't handle the

1090
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:42,200
Speaker 1: idea of being at So I said, um, no, I

1091
01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:43,600
Speaker 1: really want to be at the Wife and they're like,

1092
01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:45,760
Speaker 1: that's not free. And I lighted the CDC and said

1093
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:47,680
Speaker 1: that I had a gift card. Oh my god, Oh

1094
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:53,960
Speaker 1: my god. I know. I'm sorry. I couldn't. I couldn't. No,

1095
01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:56,680
Speaker 1: I think that's great. I think, other than my own

1096
01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:59,439
Speaker 1: life from the last things, we should all be lying

1097
01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:01,640
Speaker 1: and shadow to the staff of the White Hotel. I'm

1098
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:06,840
Speaker 1: sure they're they're fairly compensated for all getting COVID. I

1099
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:09,960
Speaker 1: was very I was very good, I'll say that, but

1100
01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:13,080
Speaker 1: it was just so obvious. They keep being like housekeeping

1101
01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:18,360
Speaker 1: and I'd be like, no, well you did the right

1102
01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:20,760
Speaker 1: thing then, I mean, you didn't get anyone's life at risk.

1103
01:06:20,800 --> 01:06:25,920
Speaker 1: If anything, you're the hero. Yeah, they should put your

1104
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 1: picture on the wall there. They should rename it the

1105
01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:37,600
Speaker 1: Charles Rogers Hotel, the Charles Rogers Hotel. Um. Well, if

1106
01:06:37,600 --> 01:06:39,280
Speaker 1: I can speak out of turn, I just want to

1107
01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 1: say this was delightful. Yeah. I want to say second

1108
01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:45,600
Speaker 1: what George said and say thanks for doing the podcast.

1109
01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:48,560
Speaker 1: Thank you. I hope I was a good enough guest

1110
01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:51,120
Speaker 1: you were. If anything, I'm like, I actually have so

1111
01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:54,280
Speaker 1: many more thoughts on the revelations we had in the

1112
01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:56,560
Speaker 1: last like ten minutes of our airport conversation, and I

1113
01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:58,680
Speaker 1: wish we could be on the call for another like hour.

1114
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:01,360
Speaker 1: I think there's so much. I feel like there's so

1115
01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:05,000
Speaker 1: much of airports we didn't even get to. I know,

1116
01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:08,600
Speaker 1: you know, in the serit of I feel like that's

1117
01:07:08,640 --> 01:07:11,080
Speaker 1: in the spirit of airports and that you're only there

1118
01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 1: for a small amount of time and then you get

1119
01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:18,240
Speaker 1: on a plane. That's true, you go wherever you want.

1120
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:22,440
Speaker 1: You got to do more of this soon. Yeah, well,

1121
01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:25,240
Speaker 1: from all of us here at Stradiolab, have a safe flight.
