1
00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: Funk and jewels, second d D Second Date? Am I late?

2
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 1: Maybe I am? But I tried it and I cried

3
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 1: and you lied. Now I vape flavors, grape, so desperate,

4
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: so sexless. In fact, I'm so whack fade to black.

5
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, thank you very much, everybody poetry.

6
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 1: Why did I start today's second date update with a

7
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: beautiful poem? Well because I'm a poet, obviously, and also

8
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: so is Mark, who's on the line for a second

9
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: date update today. That's how he says he met the

10
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,000
Speaker 1: girl that he wants to call today at a poetry reading. Mark,

11
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: were you impressed by my work? Sir? You know what?

12
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,560
Speaker 1: Not half bad? Thank you very much, and you're a

13
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: liar already. Um so yeah, your email said that you're

14
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: a poet. Huh yeah, yeah, i'd like to think so.

15
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: At least that's awesome. Are you able to make a

16
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: living doing that? Oh no, not at all. But I

17
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 1: got open mic shows and whatnot. You know, get to

18
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: meet new people. It's a lot of fun. Yeah, okay.

19
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: Most of us, really artistic poets aren't recognized until after

20
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 1: our death. Exactly. We've got plenty at time, so, you know,

21
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: so how did you meet the girl that you want

22
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 1: to call today? You met her out of poetry reading. Yeah,

23
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: I was up an open mic and I was reading

24
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: a few poems and one of them, the last one,

25
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: got really well received. You know, I got a really

26
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 1: great applause from its A lot was exciting cool. What

27
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: was it about? Well, the one that people really liked

28
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: was about a break up I had a couple of

29
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: years ago that was more of an event really than

30
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: a breakup. Was it sad or was it empowering? What

31
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: was the tone of your breakup poem? It was sad

32
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: from my end, but you know, she came over livid,

33
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: and I guess the climax of it was that I

34
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: had a large like candle in the middle of my

35
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: coffee table that was lit, and she was still mad.

36
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: But she took it and threw it across the room

37
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: and smash on the wall. WHOA, that's crazy. You'll realize

38
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: this wax is really hard to clean up. So you

39
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: read a poem about this breakup, and that's what attracted

40
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 1: the girl to you, I guess. So she came up

41
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: to me at the bar and said, you know, I

42
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: really really enjoyed it, and I thought that was great,

43
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: but she liked it. Hey, there's nothing better than bonding

44
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 1: over some crazy X stories because that's just what it

45
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: sounds like to me, exactly exactly. What better way to

46
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: talk about it than through poetry? Yeah, all right, so

47
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: do you guys hang out at the bar for a

48
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: little while? And yeah, we hung out there for a

49
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 1: little while, and I asked her if she wanted to

50
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: grab drinks somewhere else. We went across the street to

51
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 1: a bar that she liked and had a couple of

52
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: drinks and it was going really well until I was

53
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 1: trying to compliment her. You know, but it's so boring

54
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 1: to hear like, oh, you're gorgeous, so you're so smart,

55
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 1: you know. I feel like women hear that all the time. No,

56
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: not enough, never enough enough, yep, but continue should I

57
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: should have gone simply because the compliment I went with,

58
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 1: and I stand by it. I'll let me stay first.

59
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: I stand by it. I told her that she is

60
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 1: beautiful like a snail. That yeah, that doesn't sound like okay,

61
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: but with I explained myself. I said, snails, in my

62
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: mind are beautiful creatures because they have this, you know,

63
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: gorgeous like exterior that like keeps them protected, but on

64
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: the inside they're very like soft and vulnerable and beautiful

65
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: in a way. Yeah, I think maybe you could have

66
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: gone with something else, man, like, you don't know her

67
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: well enough to know that she's vulnerable on the inside either.

68
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: Well aren't we all? That's what I was going with it,

69
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: I think. So, Yeah, we all have a very deep,

70
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: tough outer shell and then once you get through that,

71
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: we have these slimy little insides that if you sprinkle

72
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 1: some salt on it, we with her up and die. Exactly,

73
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: I see, where are you going? But that's because we

74
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: connect on a different level because we're poets. Absolutely. Yeah,

75
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: So she wasn't wooed by you comparing her to a snail.

76
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: I guess not. It's better than a slug, I think,

77
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: but not that different. Really did her mood change after that? Yeah,

78
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: I'd say so. The conversation got a little more difficult

79
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: after that. And then at the end of the night,

80
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: I just said, you know, I had a great night,

81
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: and she immediately stuck out her hands for a handshake. Yeah,

82
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: that was it. Huh. Well, she did give you a number,

83
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: which was you know, encouraging, right, But that was that

84
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: was before I called her a snail, she was a

85
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: beautiful like snail, beautiful like Okay, so you ended it

86
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: with a handshake. Yeah, Well, okay, we're gonna play a song, Mark,

87
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: and then we're gonna come back. Okay, Still I got nothing, Mark,

88
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: did you have anything that will rhyme for me? Bong

89
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: song bong, We'll come back and write the wrong. That's

90
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,679
Speaker 1: good like that? All right, We're gonna play a song, Mark,

91
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 1: and then we're gonna come back and write the wrong

92
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: off the top of my head, brilliant. All right. Hold on, man,

93
00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:02,239
Speaker 1: we'll be back right after the fucking jubil in the morning.

94
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:09,239
Speaker 1: Hold on, let's try this again. If you're just tuning

95
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: in second date, big mistake. Mark's I rate date is

96
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: a flake, so gone, so bad. Never any encouragement from dad.

97
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 1: Why Mark's dad? Was it so hard to care? Instead?

98
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: You were careless? And now Mark's in deep stress? Hold him?

99
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you very much. I don't know that

100
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: chills down my spine, very deep, very deep, Mark's dad.

101
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: That's what a real mystery we should be solving right now,

102
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,359
Speaker 1: not this date thing. What it all came down to,

103
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: I think in that poem right there, if you're just

104
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 1: tuning in for today's second date update. Mark is on

105
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: the phone and Mark is a poet. He met the

106
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: girl that he wants to call today at one of

107
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: his poetry readings. He goes to open mic nights a lot,

108
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: and she came up to him after he was done

109
00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: and really liked one of the poems that he read

110
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: about his crazy ex girlfriend. They talked at the bar

111
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: for a little while and then went somewhere else to

112
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,160
Speaker 1: hang out, and he says that her mood kind of

113
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 1: changed when he said that she was as beautiful as

114
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 1: a snail. He was trying to say that she was

115
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: like hard on the outside but soft on the inside,

116
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: like everybody, but he thinks she didn't really like that

117
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: very much. He ended the date with a handshake, but

118
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: has her phone number and tried to reach out to

119
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: her and she hasn't responded to anything. Mark. Do we

120
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: need to talk about those issues with your dad first

121
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: or you want to just do the second date? Yeah?

122
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: I think that's a longer show than this. Okay, I

123
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 1: just thought he's in tears over the whole thing. Well,

124
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: dollar phone number right now, get her on the phone

125
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 1: and see if we can figure out what we're wrong.

126
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: All right, great, and I'll stop with all the bad poetry,

127
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: will you? Though I don't think you will. I don't

128
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 1: trust you at all. I can't make that promise. I

129
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: found a new passion Mark because of you, Bernie. Yeah,

130
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna dollar Phoneimercy. We get her on

131
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: the phone. Here we go, Oh, Mark, I never even

132
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 1: asked what her name is? What's her name? Oh, Lizzie, Lizzie. Sorry,

133
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 1: I was so wrapped up in my own poetry I

134
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: forgot to ask. All right, I'll die Lizzie's phone of

135
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: her right now we go? Hello, Hi, can I speak

136
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: to Lizzie? Please? This is her speaking. He's calling Hi, Lizzie.

137
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: This is Jewel from brook and Jewel in the Morning. Okay,

138
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: what is it? It's a radio show. That's a I've

139
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: never been called by radio before. Well cool, there's a

140
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: first for everything. Any idea why I'm calling you? No idea? Okay, Well,

141
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 1: contemplating hanging up? No, please don't please don't hang up. Yeah,

142
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: don't hang up. You're going to be very interested in

143
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: this phone call, okay, because it involves I'm sure one

144
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: of the many men that's vying for your attention beating

145
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: down your door. I guess you're implying that I go

146
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: on lots of awesome dates. Well, I heard you're as

147
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: beautiful as a snail, so I figured probably going out

148
00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: on a lot of dates sounds vaguely familiar. Does it

149
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 1: remind you of somebody named Mark? Yeah? Actually it's not

150
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: a bad giggle. That is kind of a positive giggle

151
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: that you have right there. Well, I mean that was

152
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: kind of cute. It was cute, okay. So yes, Mark

153
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: is the guy that asked us to call you. He

154
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 1: says that you met after one of his poetry readings

155
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: and he really enjoyed spending time with you. But now

156
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: you're not answering any of his phone calls or text messages,

157
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: and he was hoping we could find out why. Well,

158
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 1: it wasn't like the best date ever. Okay, Okay. He

159
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: said he thought that you liked him until he said

160
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: the line about being as beautiful as a snail. I mean,

161
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: the snail thing. I was like, what, it's weird, But

162
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: it was like, I don't know. I guess he was

163
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 1: just trying to be like dorky and poetic and I

164
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: find meaning and nothing and then make at something okay,

165
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: So I was like, I was like, oh, you know,

166
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,760
Speaker 1: like he's trying. So that's nice. But so it wasn't

167
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: the snail line. No, it wasn't the snail One got

168
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: me was the date already bad before the snail line

169
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: because he thought that that was the turning point? No, no, no,

170
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: I mean he made fun of me, what, like how

171
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,599
Speaker 1: well we were just talking about poetry and stuff, you know,

172
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: like you do it places where people will go and

173
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: talk about poetry and makes sense. So he asked me,

174
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,200
Speaker 1: you know who my favorite poet was? And I told

175
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 1: him and he just laughed at me. He just made

176
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: fun of me and for it. So I thought, wow,

177
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: this guy is kind of a joke. Oh wow, so

178
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: you brought up your favorite poet and he laughed at

179
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 1: your taste? Yeah, just shot me down, Like did you

180
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: tell him that? We talked about it, and we kind

181
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: of felt like we were arguing and going back and

182
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 1: forth and it was just not comfortable. And I like

183
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: how he asks your opinion and then says, oh, that's

184
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: a bad opinion. Yeah, maybe he thought I was joking,

185
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,719
Speaker 1: but I definitely wasn't because my answer was one of

186
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,679
Speaker 1: my biggest inspirations. So when he shot me down, I

187
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: was like, wow, it was guy's gonna wah yeah, okay,

188
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: well who's your biggest inspiration? So I said that my

189
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,439
Speaker 1: favorite poet was doctor SEUs and he laughed at that.

190
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: That's awesome though, And now the guy in the backgrounds laughing. Great,

191
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: you don't expect like people to talk about great poets.

192
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 1: And then I mean, maybe you do. I don't know.

193
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: I'm not a big poetry guy, but I wouldn't think

194
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: doctor Seuss like we'll see you. I mean, like it

195
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, Like any time I bring it up, everyone's

196
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,079
Speaker 1: gonna think that I'm kidding, like it's a joke. And

197
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:33,559
Speaker 1: see he's laughing again. I can tell you you're getting upset.

198
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: And Jose laughs at everything, so don't worry about that. Okay,

199
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: he laughs at everything. But I will tell you this

200
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: Mark is actually on the other line listening and wants

201
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,199
Speaker 1: to talk to you. Oh my god, are you serious?

202
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 1: Sorry if that makes you even more upset, Oh my god,

203
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: doctor SEUs, that's what this is about. Well, yes, that's

204
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: what offended me, Like you really hurt my feelings because

205
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: I vulnerable, like a little smell opened up and told

206
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 1: you something that I like, and then you just like

207
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: shoved it right back in my face, and it was

208
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: it was rude. I genuinely thought you were No, no, no,

209
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 1: you haven't. You have no respect for me? Say, why

210
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 1: would I call you Mack. It's not that I don't

211
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,559
Speaker 1: respect for you, Lizzie. We have a great time. I'm

212
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,599
Speaker 1: just saying, doctor Seuss, who inspired you to be a

213
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: I mean? What? Well? Yeah, I mean obviously you can

214
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: not get past that. Then, like, if you can't, you know,

215
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: deal with the real meeds and you don't deserve it.

216
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 1: So one fish, two fish, Red fish, blue fish is

217
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: not a poem I think it is. Yeah, yeah, it

218
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: definitely is a poem. It's a pole for children. I

219
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: thought we were talking about real poets. I thought we

220
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 1: were having a grown up conversation. And then you start

221
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,199
Speaker 1: talking about you know, everyone loves the Grinch. But I'm

222
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 1: not ten years old anymore. Mark. You need to back

223
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,800
Speaker 1: off right now? Well am I offending you right now?

224
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 1: Does anyone else there actually think doctor Seuss is a

225
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: real poet? Well? Oh, come on? Children truly? And maybe

226
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 1: there are people that bought the over six hundred million

227
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: copies of his work that was sold. Yeah, maybe that

228
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 1: counts for something. What have you sold? Okay, well maybe

229
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: I haven't sold anything. But did Doctor SEUs go to

230
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: open mics every weekend trying to like perfect the craft?

231
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: Do we know that for sure? I don't know. Maybe

232
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: Doctor SEUs did go to open mics. I guarantee Doctor

233
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: SEUs never opened up to a live audience and to

234
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: die far. I bet he was at home scribbling down

235
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: children's writing. I can't believe how ignorant you are right now.

236
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 1: He went to Dartmouth College. I'm sure he had to

237
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: speak in front of many people. How do you know

238
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 1: so much about him? Like I told you, he didn't

239
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: listen to me before. He is one of my biggest inspirations.

240
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm gonna know some stuff about him. And like,

241
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: you don't even have a clue what you're talking about.

242
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 1: You're the one that called me, Well, if I want

243
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,319
Speaker 1: to be a hack like doctor SEUs and write about

244
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: cat in the Hat and bat, then I could, And

245
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,199
Speaker 1: you know what, I could probably sell a million copies.

246
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 1: But I don't. I go up there and I talked

247
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,839
Speaker 1: about my feelings in the world around me like a

248
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,520
Speaker 1: real poets supposed to I find it harder. I even

249
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: have to defend myself in regard to doctor SEUs other

250
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 1: than writing children's books and poems. I mean, he's very political,

251
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: and he has all kinds of hidden symbolism and green

252
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:27,599
Speaker 1: eggs and ham and oh no, no, that's not what is.

253
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: The symbolist is in green eggs and ham food poisoning. Yeah,

254
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: why don't you go back to your own apartment, is

255
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: write your whiny poems about your ex girlfriend, because that's

256
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: clearly the only type that you can get. Well, okay, great,

257
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 1: Why don't you just go back to the bookstore and

258
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 1: sit in the children's section on a mini stool and

259
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: read your pop up books at more pleasant than talking

260
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,079
Speaker 1: to you? For sure, we would get you on the

261
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 1: phone market you to apologize. It's say, oh my god,

262
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: I didn't mean to dis your inspiration. I'm sorry. I

263
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 1: would have if she didn't double down on it. I mean,

264
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:11,080
Speaker 1: good lord, not, is that not what this whole phone

265
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: calls about? Just to make fun of me some more? No, No,

266
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: it was trying to get It was to try to

267
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,319
Speaker 1: get you a second date with Mark, which, if you

268
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: would like a second date with Mark, Lizzie, we would

269
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: pay for it. Would you like to go out with

270
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: him again? No? Hell no, that is the last thing

271
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: that I would want to do. I'd rather go sit

272
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 1: in the children's section of the library and read pulp

273
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: up books. Thank you, it does sound pretty fun. Actually,

274
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: never call me again, wow, he Mark? Yeah, no second

275
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: date for you, man, I'm sorry. Yeah, I didn't sound

276
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: like but I did in that time write a poem

277
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: about it. If you want to hear it. I no,

278
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: I would love to. No, don't put me on the

279
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: spot like that. I didn't actually have anything prepared. Judging

280
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: by the text messages we're getting in at seven, eight,

281
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: five nine too, it's official. Doctor SEUs is a real poet,

282
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: I think so. If you missed today's second eight update

283
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: that was taped when Brooke was still here. She's out

284
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 1: on maternity to leave. Jackie is filling in. But Mark

285
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: wanted to call Lizzie. They met at a poetry night

286
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: open mic night. She was there, saw him performing and

287
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: liked him. So they hung out a little bit and

288
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: she wasn't calling him back. Why wasn't she calling back? Well,

289
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 1: because he was very offended that she said her favorite

290
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: poet was doctor SEUs. And then yeah, just went on

291
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: to rip her about her taste and poetry, just like

292
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: you don't understand what a real poet goes through. I

293
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: think he even said the line, did doctor SEUs go

294
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: to open mic nights every week and work on his poetry?

295
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: I doubt it. Yeah, everybody in Textican at seven eighty

296
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: five and nine two can't stand this guy and said

297
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: he's super pretentious and she shouldn't go out with him.

298
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: And she decided to not go out with him again.

299
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 1: Good good, unfortunately, because I think they would have made

300
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: a great couple. He could have really taught her a

301
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 1: lot about poetry. Remember, if you want to do a

302
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: second day update, all you have to do is email

303
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 1: the show and we will call the person who didn't
