It's 56 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: I had no idea what a National Water Park Day. 57 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: I nearly went to a water park last week and 58 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: then decided against this, and now I feel like I've 59 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: let the side down. What happened, Well, I was in 60 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: Vegas and I was looking for things to do. During 61 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: the day and I couldn't. I couldn't muster enough support 62 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: from the other comics. And going going to water park 63 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: by yourself is suspicious at best. Yeah, or just always 64 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: be like, just like call out for a child, kid, 65 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: I wonder if he's halfway down this right? Yeah? Have 66 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: you seen have you seen a kid? Just go down here? 67 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 1: I'll just look myself, man. Yeah, I'm just gonna write 68 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: a single writer, single writer. Yeah. Did you find your 69 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: go to a water park with goggles on? That's a 70 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: crazy yeah, goggles on a snorkel, snorkel, Yeah, if don't 71 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: wear a scuba mask. We did doubly screw up though, 72 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 1: on that same note, because so we we didn't go 73 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: to the water park. What we ended up going to 74 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: was an American Ninja Warrior contest. It was at the 75 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: That's what I thought it was at the Orleans Arena, 76 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: and it wasn't televised, So I figured, like, some of 77 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: them will be great and that will be amazing, and 78 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 1: something would be less great and it will be doubly amazing. 79 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,679 Speaker 1: And then we get it there and all those Ninja 80 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: warriors look young, they're all pretty small. We got into 81 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: the box office and like what's the deal And he goes, yeah, 82 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: they're all kids. Yeah, and we go it's ticketed, and 83 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: he goes, yeah, thirty dollars and uh, and we were like, 84 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: I think if you pay thirty bucks to watch children exercise, 85 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: you end up on a list. Yeah, for sure, and 86 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: deservedly so probably. Yeah, me and the other comics we 87 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: sort of well, like, I think we should leave you. Yeah, 88 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: we should definitely leave right now. Not even just being 89 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: in this building is a step too far. And yet 90 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: I think that would be kind of fun to watch 91 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: children just like dominate and like do things that I 92 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: could never dream of being able to do if it 93 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: was free entry. If it was free entry, I think 94 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: we would have gone. If it was like five bucks 95 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: as well, we would have maybe gone in, got some 96 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: drinks and started like yelling at kids. But I think 97 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: thirty dollars is a suspiciously high amount to pay, right, 98 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: especially if you don't exasizing children that we are not 99 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 1: in any way related to write for, having no relation 100 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: to any of the contestants. Spending thirty dollars signals to 101 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: the world that you think it's worth the money, you know, 102 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: and that's where you have to defend yourself. You're like, 103 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: but thirty dollars, You're like, you know some of these 104 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: kids I've been following for a while, and I'm really 105 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: excited about some of these guys. Yeah. Yeah, I guess 106 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 1: it would be like really impressive kids and then like 107 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 1: wildly dysfunctional families they're supporting them. Oh, they were like 108 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,119 Speaker 1: they were adults going in with teath with like wearing 109 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: things like sweaters that said like ninja mom and stuff. 110 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: They are they are competitive parents. I didn't even know 111 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: it was a thing, but it's enough of a thing 112 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: that there are competitive parents about it either. Did I 113 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: didn't realize about the ninja warrior industrial complex that we're 114 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: even like getting them young, like being like, hey man, 115 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: you make sure your kids are like competing young or 116 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: else they're not going to have a shot ninja word stuff. Yeah, 117 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: they don't develop the muscles, right if you don't get 118 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: them ninja ing by the like you hear that in 119 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: other sports, right, like football or like soccer, right where 120 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: they say like, look, if you're not like playing in 121 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: a some kind of academy set up by the time 122 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: you're twelve, like you don't even bother like think you're 123 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 1: playing professionally.

Something thought it 180 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: was like some like nineties hip hop remake of the 181 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: Monster Mash. But I'm glad. I'm glad it is what 182 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 1: it is. I've definitely heard from like people who I 183 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: wouldn't expect necessarily to be monster truck fans, just in 184 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 1: the traditional sense, being like I went to a monster 185 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: truck rally.

For you, what's been the 196 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: most fruitful sort of like experimental event you went to, 197 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: like in the same vein and you're like, holy shit, 198 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: I got a lot of more out of this in 199 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: many levels than I thought I would. Oh, there's a 200 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: great question. I don't I honestly don't know. I I 201 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: think some of the ones that were just surprising, going 202 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: going to a laser tag in a bought with another 203 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 1: comic that was that was a lot of fun. That 204 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: was just like I was expecting. I hadn't been since 205 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 1: I was a kid, and I was like, all right, 206 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: let's see how we go. And then it was just 207 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: you know, we we absolutely murdered the kids. Oh god. 208 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: Now it's just like really because you know, you're doing 209 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: stuff during the day, and most people will have real jobs, 210 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: so if you go and do these things, it won't 211 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: be just being a couple of idiot comedians. And then 212 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: just paris like a seventh grade birthday party exactly, and 213 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: I want to grade birthday party. And I was like, 214 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: I'll let the kids have their fun, and then like 215 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: one of them shot my kid and then I was 216 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: just on a rampage after like the last year it 217 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: was like not doing fun stuff. I was, I like 218 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: found a good spot and then just like sniped the 219 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: hell out of like everyone. So we're first blooding it. 220 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: Were you playing at Ultra Zone? Yeah? I talked. We 221 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: talked about this. Yeah, where you get where you used 222 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: to work? Where I used to work in Dr Dre 223 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: watched me make me very uncomfortably go there to Matt 224 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: it was that was that where you went for for later? No, 225 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: Where's Where's Ultra Zone? Badly? Like in Sherman Oaks and 226 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: we don't even need to tell people that usually justin 227 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: you can cut that out because ultrazone is nationally famous. 228 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 1: Ione knows where ultrazone is. Someone surviving? Did you get 229 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: ultra Zone? Was it ultrasone then ultra Zone? No? What 230 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 1: is that? That's actually the first thing that Miles had 231 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: on his resume when we were like thinking about, you know, 232 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: bringing him on for this show was proud alumnus, alumnus 233 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: of Ultra Zone exactly and no, no follow up, just 234 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: ultra Zone. That's it. That's all you need to know. 235 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: Is is a week the longest time you've ever spent 236 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: consecutively in Vegas? And follow up? Is it the longest 237 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 1: time anyone has ever spent consecutively in Vegas? Because that 238 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,239 Speaker 1: feels like a long time to be in Las Vegas. 239 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: It is a very long time, I would say. I 240 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: would say pen and Tella have beaten that amount of 241 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 1: time by several decades. But other than that, they have 242 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 1: to get out, we need travel every day. Well, they 243 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 1: definitely don't live on the Strip. I'm pretty sure they 244 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: live in nice houses and then commute into the Yeah, 245 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 1: I would say that is exactly five and a half 246 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: days longer than you should ever spend in Vegas. Vegas 247 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: is fantastic for about thirty six hours, and that's that's 248 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 1: the limits. I had to work on a Senate campaign 249 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: there for two months. And were you on the strip 250 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 1: to just like literally one block off the strip like that? 251 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: The Candlewood Extended Stays fucking hotel was strip, Matt, You 252 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: have no idea. This was like right after the subprime 253 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: like crash, so there were so many displaced people living 254 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 1: in this extended stay like hotel, like on Halloween, like 255 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: kids or trick or treating, and like I had like 256 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: a front row seat at like the financial collapse of America, 257 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: and I changed at a molecular level being there for 258 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: two months. I'm not gonna lie it. It definitely puts something, 259 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: put some pep in my step to get the funk 260 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: out of politics. Mhm alright, what is something that you 261 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: think is underrated that underrated? Well, this is gonna.

Yeah, 269 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: it's fantastic.

Uh. 343 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: This man is responsible for Kokomo. He's responsible for telling 344 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: Brian Wilson to funk off with all his creative cleverness 345 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,679 Speaker 1: of pet sounds one of He's responsible for flashing uh 346 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: thumbs up and wearing a captain's hat about the fifty 347 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 1: times and every performance that I've ever seen of him 348 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: just took being a world class piece of ship capitalist 349 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: to levels of artistry that I don't think anyone like. 350 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: He was the person who like kind of sent Brian 351 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: Wilson off the rails. He was like, that sounds sucks, dude, 352 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 1: sorry to tell you. We can put it out. It's 353 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: not gonna sell. And then it didn't sell, and Brian 354 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 1: Wilson was like, fuck, I'm the worst and stayed in 355 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: bed for like three years. What was the intersection with 356 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: Charles Manson? Was it like the drummer that was friends 357 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 1: with him or something one of the Wilson brothers. I 358 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: think maybe Dennis Wilson was just like Charles Manson was 359 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: just like a sociopath. He was like hanging around everybody 360 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: that was fam lifted his house for a while like that. 361 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: The family actually lived in his house for a bit. 362 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: He put him to record a couple of songs with him. Yeah. 363 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: And when you listen to Charles Manson's music, like I 364 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: do every day just to get to get myself right 365 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: in the morning show, it's it's like heavily, heavily influenced. 366 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: It's like if I just all of a sudden tried 367 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 1: to record a Beach Boys song. Alexa placed Charles Manson 368 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: on Spotify. Don't do that to people. Is there an 369 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: I Heeart Radio Manson channel? Is there? Oh? You better 370 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: believe it? Yeah? Well serious, he got to check out 371 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,959 Speaker 1: Serious x MS. Right, it's just twenty four hour Manson 372 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 1: family demos. It's just old Rush Limbo episodes they play 373 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: and then just occasionally help a Skelton by the Beatles. Yeah, 374 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: just kind of spice it up. I think one of 375 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: the motivations for like the killings at like the Tate 376 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: La Bianca murders was that they were going to that 377 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: house because that's where a record producer lived who had 378 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 1: like turned down his demo. So like his whole thing 379 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 1: was he just wanted to be famous, and he was like, well, 380 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: hanging out with the bat Tooys didn't work. I guess 381 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: we'll go with this and to be fair, mission accomplished. Yeah. Yeah, 382 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I I know his name. Probably I knew 383 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 1: his name before I knew Dennis Wilson's name. Yeah, so 384 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: in your face, Dennis Wilson a century later, he's still 385 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 1: being spoken about on a radio show. Yeah exactly, exactly. Wow. 386 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: I just like the idea that there's just this one 387 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: anecdote where it said, oh, it says when Wilson took Manson, 388 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: inspiring musician to record in his studio, Manson had a 389 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: disagreement with Wilson's producers and ended up pulling a knife 390 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: on them. Yeah, you know so, but this was also 391 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 1: this was the sixties, So yeah, that's just I don't 392 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: think that's that unusual behaving few musician, he said. They're 393 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: just like always one of those temperamental ones, right exactly. 394 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: That's how they would just settle disputes. Was always the 395 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: beat it music video style where you could try your 396 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 1: hands together and like do the knife dance. You think 397 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: Phil Specta didn't pull knife on recording engineers all the time, right, 398 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: Philli Specker stayed with his knife out, and then when 399 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,360 Speaker 1: when it was a special when it was a special time, 400 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: he would start licking off shots was actually a bunch 401 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: of knives on a board that he would move closer 402 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: to the performing artists to be like, alright, Matt Miles, 403 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll come back and we'll 404 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: talk about the news. Shall we agreed? All right, and 405 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: we're back and uh yeah, we're just checking in. We 406 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: like to we like to check in with the continued 407 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 1: PSI up that's happening and in your Bloomsburg and your 408 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: fortunes where where they're just trying to make people feel 409 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 1: bad about leaving their jobs and like trying to take 410 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: some autonomy over their own careers. They're like, man, people, 411 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 1: people don't like it. People regret that they did that. 412 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: There could coming back and saying sorry daddy to their 413 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 1: exactly where they have to crawl through a dusty like 414 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: fucking crawl space like Homer when he has to beg 415 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: for his job back from Mr Burns and he's like, yeah, 416 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 1: is this is this an up head fight? Any shots? 417 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: Written by Jonathan Boss Management Company by Sea Montgomery Burns. Actually, 418 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 1: but so like about a week ago, you know, we 419 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: brought up this like constant back and forth and especially 420 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: the financial news sector that kept waffling between people are quitting, help, 421 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: what do we do into? Actually gen Z hates a 422 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: remote work and that's a good thing. So people who 423 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: like remote work are dumb. Was sort of like the 424 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: gist of him, like what the fun is going on? Also, 425 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: Commercial Landlord of Commercial Landloading believe that people hate working remotely. 426 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: The young people do not like it as well. I 427 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: asked a group of ninth graders what they thought of 428 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: remote work. They don't funk with it, and it's like 429 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: that's not a good sample size. So in the last 430 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 1: two weeks now we're seeing fucking headlines like this. This 431 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: is from Bloomberg. Millions of Americans regret the great resignation. Uh. 432 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 1: Then Fortune magazine with the financial yes and comes through 433 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: with the great regret. Doesn't mean employers are off the 434 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 1: hook now, see this is I like to see this 435 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 1: balance that's coming out with pieces like this because the 436 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: first headline serves as an announcement that um, actually people 437 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: regret looking for better prospects and outcomes for their lives. 438 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 1: But keep in mind what they're when when you look 439 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:37,719 Speaker 1: at this sort of sub headline, it says about one 440 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 1: quarter of job leavers rue the decision. Oh that's three 441 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: courts of people are glad they left their job. So really, 442 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: seventy five percent of people that left their jobs aren't 443 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: regretting it. Maybe that's the fucking headline, and I like 444 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 1: that they can use it because it's the American workforce. 445 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: It can sound like millions, but let's get a way 446 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: to get ahead of ourselves. You said that is higher 447 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: than I and I think most people would expect like that, 448 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: somebody leaving their job just because they're like, nah, fuck it, 449 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: like I don't really like this job and I'll find 450 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: something better. That seventy percent are like that actually worked 451 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 1: out is pretty like incredible, Like it is not what 452 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 1: I would expect. There's a lot of projection that also, 453 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 1: just like projecting desire and intention onto what's actually just 454 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: a pragmatism and expedientcly like just people who weren't being 455 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: paid for a job during the pandemic and weren't being 456 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: given benefits, stop doing that job and now a lot 457 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: of those benefits has been taken away. They need jobs 458 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 1: again and so have had to apply. It's going like, oh, 459 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: these people did this for this and did that. No, 460 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: they just they just did the normal thing that everyone 461 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: normally does, which is way up a basic pro and 462 00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: con cost benefit analysis of I need to do this 463 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: job right now? Do not need to do this job right? Well, 464 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: look who needs rents? And so now it's actually too well. 465 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: At any given time, most people do the least bad 466 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: job that would give them enough money to be able 467 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: to survive. Like it just where that line is moves 468 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: up and down depending on circumstance. And that's what has happened. 469 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: That line has just moved up and down, I think, yeah, 470 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: And it's really just trying to have reckoned with the 471 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: like the fact that the initial shutdown from the pandemic 472 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: really gave people a moment to pause and like reset 473 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 1: their expectations for themselves. And guess what seventy percent of 474 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,360 Speaker 1: those people were like I did, I made the right move, 475 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 1: and maybe the other twenty five probably fell into a 476 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: difference that you they might not be like, actually, I 477 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: actually went to a job I didn't like out of 478 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: necessity more so that I regret leaving it. So they're 479 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 1: still in the American workforce. It's not great. It's not 480 00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:00,400 Speaker 1: great out there, but like not at a Yeah, yeah, 481 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:04,880 Speaker 1: it's not like everyone's just doing lu Ow's now also 482 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: that like, I mean, this is a net gain. People 483 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: leaving jobs they like for jobs they like more is 484 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: a net gain. And that was made possible by the 485 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: Great resignation, which was made possible by the government just 486 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,439 Speaker 1: giving the least amount of assistance, just like a small 487 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: amount of assistance that would give people breathing room to 488 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: be like, all right, now I can actually like look 489 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: at my life and think about like things with like 490 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: some objectivity instead of just being sucking check to check 491 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 1: every single day. And like, I think about how much 492 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: happier that has made America overall. And the working from 493 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 1: home thing, Like I'm not a hunt persent advocate for 494 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: working the home. There were things that I think I 495 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,959 Speaker 1: I I think writing rooms like TV writing rooms are 496 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: still better. I love being in a room with people 497 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: bouncing off them. I think the energy is still better 498 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: than being on zoom.

Oh my god, they're doing the thing. 568 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: They're legitimizing the CEO talking point of look, welcome, welcome 569 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: to the job. But really you're not being welcome to 570 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: a job. You're being uh welcomed to a family. We're 571 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: really a family around here, and as has been pointed out, 572 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 1: that means you're about to get fucked by whatever job 573 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: is telling you.

You can't choose your family, right, Yeah, exactly, 575 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:03,719 Speaker 1: that's a dysfunctional, abusive family where we actually don't truly 576 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: give a funk about you, but we pretend to and 577 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: you still have to like hang out with us, but 578 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 1: you can't. You can't really get away with the get 579 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 1: away they think too is like this is really instructive 580 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: where they say they're like the people that regret it. 581 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: This is from this that articles as bosses can take 582 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: the power back. The biggest reason workers are feeling quitters 583 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: or more is that they gave notice without another job 584 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 1: lined up. Yep, yeah, that sounds that's again practical. That 585 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 1: sounds like the group of people who would be like 586 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: I funked out up. Huh, I just quit the job 587 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: and didn't have any other prospects signed up. Now, I 588 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: guess sometimes you quit because there's no fucking You're like, 589 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 1: there's no way I can continue at this job. But 590 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: that seems like pretty spot on for someone who like, so, 591 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: did you know of the people who were who quit 592 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 1: a job and not having a job lined up? Do 593 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: you regret that? And yeah? What like, yeah, that was bad? 594 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: And then they're saying like, look at this man. Now 595 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: you've got the opportunity for what they call quote boomerang 596 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: employees who will turn to daddy and some of those 597 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: people regret having like taken a dump in the CEO's 598 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 1: office and then the parking lockdown. Right, those guys regret 599 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 1: it ship on his laptop and then closed it on 600 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 1: the ship. It's like that I shouldn't have closed it 601 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: on the ship, and we might have been able to 602 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,839 Speaker 1: salvage this thing. Yeah, because there's no amount of rice 603 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:24,879 Speaker 1: that you can put that in now the yeah, yeah, 604 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,799 Speaker 1: that's pretty much useless. But yeah, like, of all those 605 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: I honestly think that one fortune one that says like 606 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: just because people don't like, aren't you know, maybe only 607 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,120 Speaker 1: three quarters of people don't regret going back doesn't mean 608 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: you can't, you know, adjust your shitty workplace. I mean 609 00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 1: I think that at the end of the day, that 610 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: should be the one thing that if it does feel 611 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: like usable information for an employer, is that, like, dude, 612 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 1: the biggest thing that most people fucking hate about a 613 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: job is the work culture or the office culture, or 614 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,400 Speaker 1: if it's toxic or feels like there's no place for 615 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 1: them to be human.

It's also the source 660 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: of that conversation we had a while back about the 661 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:09,360 Speaker 1: complete like neutering and de sexualization of all like modern 662 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,720 Speaker 1: blockbusters and like how the sex has just been complete 663 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 1: as characters and actors have gotten like more and more 664 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: buff and like indistinguishable from one another in terms of 665 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: like how what they look like in in movies. They've 666 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,840 Speaker 1: just completely removed any sex from like the most popular 667 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 1: movies in America. Was a very interesting article. So they 668 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,879 Speaker 1: have a new article on imposter syndrome that I thought 669 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 1: is it was really interesting. I think I feel like 670 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 1: it ties into our recent conversation on social media making 671 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 1: people unhappy about bullshit jobs. Yeah, about bullshit jobs. At 672 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 1: a conversation about Sunday scar ease. We actually had a 673 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: listener reach out after that conversation saying that like their 674 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 1: Sunday scaries went away when they went from you know, 675 00:38:55,200 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: unfulfilling spreadsheet work basically helping employers make the case for 676 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 1: postponing people's raises to working on behavior tech for like 677 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 1: children with disabilities, which that that makes sense. It's like 678 00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:13,719 Speaker 1: when I started doing something that was like fulfilling and 679 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 1: that didn't pay as much, but it was like fulfilling 680 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 1: at a deeper level, I stopped having existential dread on Sundays. 681 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: So anyways, the the essay on impostor syndrome basically suggests 682 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: that we feel like impostors. Like It starts out with 683 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: talking about like Tina Fey and Meryl Streep are two 684 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:37,839 Speaker 1: examples of people who are you know, Meryl Streep one 685 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,160 Speaker 1: of the finest living American actors, Tina Fey one of 686 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 1: our greatest joke writers, and they've both talked about how 687 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:49,280 Speaker 1: they feel like the impostors, and we've always just treated 688 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:53,520 Speaker 1: it like it's a pathology of like, you know, the 689 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 1: difference between how great you are and how great people 690 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 1: say you are and then like you feel like on 691 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: the inside. And this essay basically positive that we feel 692 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 1: like impostors when we get success in the modern American system, 693 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: because the system itself is empty and basically designed to 694 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,839 Speaker 1: like make rich people richer at the end of the day. 695 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 1: So is it kind of arguing that it's not that, say, 696 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 1: Tina Faie feels like an imposter as a creator of 697 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:32,280 Speaker 1: TV and movies, of of comedic content, but she feels 698 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:37,800 Speaker 1: like an impostor for being part of this Hollywood machine 699 00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 1: because of her incredible talent at making TV and movies. Yeah, 700 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:45,680 Speaker 1: and because like so it talks about how people who 701 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: suffer from impostor syndrome a lot of the time are 702 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,919 Speaker 1: upwardly mobile. They're people who have experienced you know, They're 703 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 1: not the people who are like the CEO s Son 704 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,759 Speaker 1: is not experiencing like impostor syndrome when the CEO makes 705 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: him ceoo because they've never known anything else. As people 706 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,160 Speaker 1: who have like worked their way up and then they 707 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 1: get to that level and they're like, oh everyone is 708 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 1: suddenly like treating me or paying me in such a 709 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 1: way that like like I've like escaped the human condition. 710 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 1: But like I know all the people who I worked 711 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 1: with on the way up or more talented than any 712 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 1: of these dipshits like up here, and like I see 713 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 1: like how arbitrary the successes and like the you know, 714 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: the just the whole design of the system being you know, 715 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 1: designed to just deliver success via nepotism or via like 716 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 1: a college degree or something like that, like something that 717 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 1: is it's just a sense that like it delivers rewards 718 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:55,280 Speaker 1: in a way that is like not doesn't make any sense. 719 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:57,720 Speaker 1: And and like you can kind of take a moment 720 00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 1: once you achieve success and be like, oh, this is 721 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: the whole thing is like bullshit. It's like, yeah, I 722 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: got here randomly like or it comes out and survivor's 723 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,839 Speaker 1: guilt too, I know, for a lot of like marginalized 724 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,800 Speaker 1: people to just like when you get up there manifests 725 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,359 Speaker 1: and survivor's guilty, You're like, why me of all the people, 726 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,400 Speaker 1: because I know other people who look like me or 727 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: come from similar circumstances who don't have a third of 728 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 1: the opportunity, and you begin to be like, well, then 729 00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:24,840 Speaker 1: what the funk do I have? Like maybe, but this 730 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 1: is bullshit. I've I've definitely experienced that myself, where I 731 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 1: was like felt guilt over the fact that I was 732 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 1: upwardly mobile and was like, well, what the fund does 733 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: that mean? And I think what's important though, to even 734 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,839 Speaker 1: point out about imposter syndrome is that when that when 735 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 1: that the term was coined in the late seventies, the 736 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: people who did that study had they they didn't, They 737 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 1: didn't they never actually factored in like what like classism, 738 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 1: systemic racism, or like xenophobia, those kinds of biases, like 739 00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: how that actually factors into how people experience to their 740 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 1: lives too, And like in the Harvard Business Review, they're 741 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,600 Speaker 1: also saying like there's an interesting way to even look 742 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,920 Speaker 1: at imposter syndrome, like there is that feeling where there's 743 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: like a disconnect between what value you feel you're providing 744 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:13,719 Speaker 1: versus what you think is valuable. And then also this 745 00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 1: idea that you will feel like naturally marginalized people, women 746 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 1: women of color will are going to feel like impostors 747 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 1: because they're just they're absent from representation in a lot 748 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 1: of these spaces, or they experience a lot of microaggressions 749 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 1: or just up just straight up aggression, racism, whatever when 750 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,800 Speaker 1: they get to these positions. So that adds to this 751 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 1: feeling of feeling like oh shit, am I so am 752 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 1: I supposed to be here? And so it's like it's 753 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 1: very like multilayered, which is really interesting and like and 754 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 1: a lot of people sort of advocate for it rather 755 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 1: than saying, hey, what's wrong with you? Why you got 756 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 1: imposter syndrome? It's like, why aren't we dealing with the 757 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:55,280 Speaker 1: environment that's creating these people who are like very unsure 758 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,800 Speaker 1: about themselves too, because that's a lot of this is 759 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 1: a reflection of the environments that people are like existing 760 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:05,839 Speaker 1: and yeah, for sure, I mean like that. And they 761 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 1: also point out like those who have actual jobs that 762 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:12,399 Speaker 1: make sense and produce genuine value for society, like teachers, farmers, firefighters, cooks, 763 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:16,919 Speaker 1: truck drivers, make significantly less money, work under more dangerous conditions, 764 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: and are generally not the people who are struggling with 765 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: imposter syndrome. You know, I don't know that, I know, 766 00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:24,240 Speaker 1: I know a bunch of teachers who have in posted 767 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,800 Speaker 1: syndrome as well, who are like in front of but 768 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 1: like I don't also I know you, like they're like 769 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 1: idiot friends who will be up with until like three 770 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:35,319 Speaker 1: in the morning. They're like, oh God, I gotta teach 771 00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:38,839 Speaker 1: like French tomorrow. Yeah. Yeah, and they're like, go, why 772 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 1: is anyone listening to me? Exactly. They're like they think 773 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:47,279 Speaker 1: kind of like a responsible adults and an idiot. They're like, 774 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 1: I just bought a bunch of tickets to a kid's 775 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:54,879 Speaker 1: Ninja Warrior event. Yeah. I mean, we recently talked about 776 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 1: like just this idea of like a lot of the 777 00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 1: issues that we have attributed to, you know, different ills 778 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: coming like social media.

And it's creepy 828 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,000 Speaker 1: how much Facebook knows about you. It's just creepy how 829 00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:11,920 Speaker 1: much it has and how they can triangulate it's like, oh, 830 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 1: it's like this person likes this food and like this 831 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,360 Speaker 1: kind of music. Guess what they're gonna like this cooking 832 00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: product something yea. And even more more specifically, like this 833 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,200 Speaker 1: person was stood next to these three people at these 834 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 1: three times, so that yeh wants to buy this hat. 835 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:32,040 Speaker 1: Oh God. The whole thing is being fueled by like 836 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:38,880 Speaker 1: the collective brilliance of a extremely under employed generation that is, 837 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 1: you know, smarter than any generation before. That's true of 838 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 1: like every new generation. And but like they you know, 839 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:50,240 Speaker 1: all all the wealth is being hoarded by the older 840 00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:54,719 Speaker 1: generations and they're just you know, toiling away on these 841 00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:58,880 Speaker 1: social media projects that the wealth is being extracted to 842 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:03,480 Speaker 1: like a handful of billionaires in a suburb of San Francisco. 843 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:07,799 Speaker 1: And it's like that's it's not a justice system, which 844 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:11,759 Speaker 1: in ton is ruining San Francisco right exactly. And it's 845 00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,239 Speaker 1: the whole you know, it's not that social media is 846 00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,600 Speaker 1: necessarily bad. It's not the people who feel like impostors 847 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 1: are impostors. It's that they are all feeling at some 848 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:27,160 Speaker 1: level that they are, you know, the entire fabric of 849 00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 1: the system they exist inside and strive to succeed in 850 00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:34,400 Speaker 1: is actually designed to make rich people and their kids 851 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 1: richer and keep other people from getting their money. And 852 00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 1: like it's it's that simple, Like when you like more 853 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 1: and more, we're just seeing like, oh, that's it, Like 854 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,680 Speaker 1: that's it all goes back to that, like they're affecting 855 00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 1: the political system. And when you succeed, you realize that 856 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:54,920 Speaker 1: probably more than you did when you were Like, we're 857 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 1: working your way up and if you've noticed the how 858 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,759 Speaker 1: arbitrary and like pointless a lot of this ship is. 859 00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 1: And I don't know. I I also feel like we've 860 00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:11,399 Speaker 1: like specifically with regards to social media, we've lost our 861 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 1: free will more and more because it is like brilliantly 862 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:20,240 Speaker 1: designed to market to us and then in a little direction. 863 00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:27,040 Speaker 1: Yeah just yeah, and you know replace what whatever you're wants, 864 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,080 Speaker 1: Like it does not want you to be satisfied. It 865 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:35,200 Speaker 1: wants you to, you know, feel unsatisfied and feel like 866 00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 1: you need to purchase something in order to like whether 867 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 1: that's in a broad sense of like a purchase buy 868 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:47,440 Speaker 1: into a lifestyle. Uh, it's our whole like inside like 869 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 1: that I kept thinking when I was like thinking about 870 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 1: about this the past couple of days of that part 871 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 1: in Stranger Things where they like cut the kid open 872 00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 1: and it's like cotton balls inside, because it's like a 873 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 1: rep blicka thing, and like, I don't know it. I 874 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 1: think that is a potent metaphor because we are like 875 00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:12,440 Speaker 1: filled with artificial like metaphysical circuitry at this point. It's 876 00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:15,960 Speaker 1: just all it's all been packed in there and it's 877 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 1: like circus peanuts in the inside. I feel like sometimes 878 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:21,759 Speaker 1: like it's just it feels a bit like because it's 879 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:24,160 Speaker 1: not just keeping you unsatisfied, it's keeping you constantly anxious. 880 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:27,200 Speaker 1: And it rives me a bit of the way that 881 00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 1: people who are addicted to cigarettes, Like cigarettes don't actually 882 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 1: make you calm, They just reduced the uncalmness of craving 883 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,880 Speaker 1: a cigarette. That's what it like. You don't need the 884 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,400 Speaker 1: cigarette doesn't calm you down. It just stops. It just 885 00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:47,479 Speaker 1: stops that tension and unpleasantness and anxiety you feel because 886 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:49,800 Speaker 1: you have a craving finicotine. And then it's it's sated, 887 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:52,200 Speaker 1: and it sort of does that same thing. It just 888 00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:54,960 Speaker 1: keeps you just on the edge of anxiety constantly, so 889 00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 1: that it can then take away that anxiety from not 890 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:02,479 Speaker 1: having this thing. But it's not actually bringing you joy 891 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 1: and calmness, it's just bringing you the absence of that 892 00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 1: lack of calmness, right, And I think that's probably at 893 00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:09,560 Speaker 1: the end of the day, that's what so many people 894 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 1: are like grappling with, is trying to like reconcile this, 895 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:17,800 Speaker 1: like what you're told is how the world works and 896 00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:20,800 Speaker 1: who deserves what and who gets what, And then you 897 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:23,760 Speaker 1: experience and you're like, wait, this is so fucking weird. 898 00:52:24,239 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 1: Like I think of just how hard I've liked like 899 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 1: how to work, to to try and find better jobs, 900 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,840 Speaker 1: to try and like be in spaces or like I 901 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:35,480 Speaker 1: could feel like I could use all of my talents properly. 902 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,880 Speaker 1: And then you get to some places and you really 903 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:43,240 Speaker 1: you begin to question.

And I had the same thing too, where 960 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:38,120 Speaker 1: I was feeling like I just a certain part of me. 961 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 1: I was like, this is like I when I was younger, 962 00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 1: I was like, I'm just using this to like stunt 963 00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 1: on people all the time.

And I was like, this isn't 968 00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:57,920 Speaker 1: really giving me anything of substance, but I enjoy like 969 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 1: seeing other people do things. And I try and put 970 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,239 Speaker 1: myself in the bracket of like a social media user 971 00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:05,759 Speaker 1: who like knows their own limits with how it can 972 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 1: affect them and tries to like healthily navigate that. Then 973 00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 1: you have people who are completely off of it, and 974 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:13,239 Speaker 1: I think you also have people who are completely immersed 975 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:16,560 Speaker 1: in it and might not actually be seeing what it's 976 00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,760 Speaker 1: what's happening to them, because self awareness doesn't come easily 977 00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,520 Speaker 1: or cheaply, and a lot, especially not now, and especially 978 00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:25,640 Speaker 1: when you're in the you know, grips of the most 979 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:30,200 Speaker 1: powerful marketing tool in the history of the human civilization. 980 00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 1: Right that that makes self awareness pretty pretty hard to 981 00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 1: come by, right, And that's why I think I try 982 00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:39,960 Speaker 1: and like find the positives in it, and like what 983 00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:42,240 Speaker 1: you're talking about, Matt, too is like connecting to people, 984 00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,920 Speaker 1: like being able to disseminate ideas that are positive and 985 00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:48,759 Speaker 1: things like that, versus I still I'm trying to get 986 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,360 Speaker 1: better curating my Twitter as well, Like I'm trying to 987 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:55,080 Speaker 1: sort of on follow or even block any and the 988 00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 1: thing that isn't just someone who shares interesting stories or 989 00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 1: someone who shares funny jokes.

I'm trying. 990 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:05,279 Speaker 1: I'm not with limited success, but I'm trying to get 991 00:57:05,320 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 1: out of the kind of like so he said this, 992 00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:08,319 Speaker 1: and he said that, and like you say, and then 993 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to dive in and just you know, don't 994 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:13,759 Speaker 1: close someone to massage my ego just too, and then 995 00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:16,280 Speaker 1: they get angry and then like it's it's not a 996 00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 1: healthy way to be, not at all. And I think 997 00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:20,680 Speaker 1: it's important to note to like, right, like you're gonna 998 00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 1: we get so worked up by a fucking plastic rectangle 999 00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:26,840 Speaker 1: with glass on it, Yeah, we're not. If we put 1000 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:30,680 Speaker 1: that down, we can experience like more you know, substantive 1001 00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 1: deeper relationships with people and even strangers on the street. 1002 00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:36,360 Speaker 1: But like we let's not get carried away. Well, I 1003 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,600 Speaker 1: mean I I tried. I high five strangers all the time. 1004 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:41,240 Speaker 1: A lot of times I get left hanging. But well, 1005 00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 1: I think at the end of the day, it's realizing 1006 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:47,480 Speaker 1: how much we're surrendering to like this, which which essentially 1007 00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:49,600 Speaker 1: is a device too, I think is another was an 1008 00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 1: easier way for me to sort of contextualize what my 1009 00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:54,800 Speaker 1: relationship is it is to this. It's like, oh, I'm 1010 00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 1: giving an outsized portion of my consciousness, my attention to 1011 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 1: this like allusion that I have on my phone, when 1012 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,800 Speaker 1: I could be spending that time to just sort of 1013 00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 1: be more present and to be more mindful and things 1014 00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 1: that will help me, you know, actually navigate the chaos 1015 00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:13,800 Speaker 1: of our world than feeling inadequate constantly or not having 1016 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:19,360 Speaker 1: the latest graphic jumper set. Yeah, I would just say 1017 00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:22,920 Speaker 1: the only piece of media you really need is this podcast. 1018 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:27,200 Speaker 1: Thank you.

So yeah, 1034 00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:21,920 Speaker 1: it's it's very cool. Is there a tweet or some 1035 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:26,080 Speaker 1: other work of social media you've been enjoying this is 1036 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 1: uh yeah, this is this is so dumb.

For this comic Matt Heighten, who does various 1039 00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:39,680 Speaker 1: video he's just superimposed Riscie Sunach, who is one of 1040 00:59:39,720 --> 00:59:41,360 Speaker 1: the two people who may or may not be the 1041 00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:46,520 Speaker 1: next British Prime Minister into an episode of Eastend as well. 1042 00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:48,800 Speaker 1: He is doing a very bad job of pouring a 1043 00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:54,960 Speaker 1: point on a public meeting. Great junket. It's a it's 1044 00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:57,280 Speaker 1: really silly, it's really simple, and I love it. It's 1045 00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,960 Speaker 1: it's Riscie Sunac, politician trying to do the thing where 1046 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:01,960 Speaker 1: he goes meets the public and looks natural and for 1047 01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 1: some in Britain, by the way, this is just I 1048 01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 1: don't think they do this in America. It's just a 1049 01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 1: thing in Britain where politicians, you know, in American they 1050 01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 1: might go and like eat a sandwich in a cafe 1051 01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 1: or something like that, have a hot dog at the 1052 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,480 Speaker 1: exactly and one of the things they have to do 1053 01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:19,280 Speaker 1: on that note if you're a British politician is stand 1054 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:21,960 Speaker 1: behind a pub and pull a pint. And that's just 1055 01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:25,040 Speaker 1: a thing. And Rishi Sunach, who, by the way, I 1056 01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:28,120 Speaker 1: believe as teetotal and certainly looks out of place in 1057 01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:30,440 Speaker 1: any kind of pub setting, but he chose this as 1058 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:32,880 Speaker 1: his place to do with the press.
