Yeah, 5 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,279 Speaker 1: it's a more Christian form of self care because by 6 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: supporting someone else, you're supporting yourself.

Um, Sam, 9 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: we have to address the fact that we are, I 10 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: would say, on the brink of collapse. I think, and 11 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: I know you hate addressing things like this, but that's 12 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: why you have to do it. Okay, are not that 13 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: afraid to address the fact that we're on the brink, 14 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: but um, yeah, we are on the brink of collapse. 15 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: Would you like to sort of explain why we are 16 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 1: kind of in this We are kind of in this 17 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: week where we accidentally planned about a month's worth of 18 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: things in one week that we're all that we're doing together. 19 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: So we just had our your comedy festival show last night. Today, 20 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: I personally had a full day of work, and then 21 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: we are recording now and then have a ten pm 22 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: It is now eight pm on a Thursday. We have 23 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: a ten pm show that we're doing after this, a 24 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: ten pm live show at a venue. Then we are 25 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: coming back and leaving for Los Angeles tomorrow, where we 26 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: are doing two shows in a row and then three 27 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: recordings in a row. And then I very intelligently didn't 28 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 1: take off of work. So I'm gonna have to wake 29 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: up at five am and do New York hours at 30 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: my job before each show and each reporting, and then 31 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: I'm coming back to New York City. And my mom 32 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: is arriving for Thanksgiving two days later and staying with me. 33 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: I thought the whole thing was that she was getting 34 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:15,239 Speaker 1: a hotel. No, no, no, no, no. She lied about 35 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: wanting to stay in a hotel so she would manipulate 36 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: me into actually asking her to stay with me. And 37 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 1: so what happened was she said, you know what, it's fine, 38 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: I'll stay at hotel. And I said, oh, you know, 39 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: I can recommend, when she was like, how dare you? 40 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: And so now she's staying with me for almost a 41 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: full week. Wow, Well that's um insane. Yeah, I mean, 42 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 1: how do you how do you? How do you deal 43 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: with the pressure I actually, I actually don't know. I 44 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: think I might. I think I might collapse at any 45 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: given point, to be honest, and actually I think it 46 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: might happen at tonight's TMPM show. Yeah, at some point 47 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: I will run out of things to say and and 48 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 1: and start kind of doing. It will be one of 49 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: those viral videos where rather than comedian destroys Heckler, it 50 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: will be a comedian destroys random person in the audience. 51 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: Our guest, who is not allowed to speak, says that 52 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 1: her apartment is empty during that time and it's very 53 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,239 Speaker 1: mom friendly, and correctly then guesses that she would be 54 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: offended if I suggested that, Wow, would you ever? How 55 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: is your parents in your apartment? I've housed my um uncle, 56 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: I've housed my dad, but not for like two weeks 57 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: at a time. Like, how long is your mom here? No, No, 58 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: it's not two weeks. It's like, I mean, it's she's 59 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:27,679 Speaker 1: she's staying with me for a few days, then my 60 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: dad is coming, then they are staying at a hotel, 61 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: and then he's leaving it she's coming back to me. 62 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: It's very Greek mom kind of energy. Yeah, yeah, I 63 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: actually do feel like now more than ever we are 64 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: at the risk of like truly running out of things 65 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: to talk about in a way that no, we can't 66 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: go there. I actually do have something we have to 67 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: talk about. What, Okay, So we have never addressed the 68 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: fact that the other night, when we were with our 69 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: friend Max and walking in Williamsburg, someone from their stoop 70 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: said fuck off. And then we were like what and 71 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 1: he said fuck off? And then Max said why and 72 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: he said, because I just said so fuck off. Um, yeah, 73 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: this was we had an amazing night. Um, you know, 74 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: sort of a and that you know, I know you 75 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: don't like when I say this, but it just really 76 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: was such a gay guys night, you know what I mean. 77 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: It was just about being a gay guy. No, I 78 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: love it. I think it's beautiful. I just think it was, like, 79 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: you know, it was like four gay guys like out 80 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 1: in Willsburg, like eating sushi and like screaming about come 81 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 1: into the like ether. And so then it was we're walking, 82 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: we're literally yelling. I believe the conversation we were having 83 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: as we were passing this man, well directly before passants man, 84 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: I was talking about this theory I have that I 85 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: can't wear a jockstrap because it um chaped my asshole. 86 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, And we were like, that's not where the 87 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: asshole is. And I was like, yeah, I'm pretty sure 88 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: that's what happens is the jeans chafed my asshole, right 89 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: and then and then you wouldn't believe us that that's 90 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: not where the asshole is. So then you said that 91 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: you were going to design an experiment where you had 92 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: ten thousand gay guys were jock strapped and then testing 93 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 1: whether their butt holes are chaved. Well, no, I was 94 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: gonna put lipstick on their butt holes and we would 95 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: see if there was lipstick on the gene. Oh, you 96 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 1: wanted to see if the butt hole could potentially touch 97 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: the strap exactly. Said Okay, well, I mean if you're 98 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 1: using the scientific method, yeah, I'm not an idiot. Of course. Well, 99 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: according to this guy who told us a funk off, 100 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: you're barely worthy of acknowledging. So yeah, essentially, we were 101 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: then um talking about how the restaurants in this on 102 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: the street looked bad and empty, and then this man 103 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: sitting on the stoop yelled at us to sunk off, 104 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 1: and so our theories were like, either he owned the restaurant, 105 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 1: which you disagreed, with I disagree with most of the theories. Actually, 106 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 1: I think very instantly we were, you know, trying to 107 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: spin a narrative. I could feel, well, we tell ourselves 108 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: stories in order to we tell stories in order to live, um, 109 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: in order to walk to metropolitan um. And it really 110 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: just started to feel, you know, the odds that he 111 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: is the owner of the restaurant and is disgruntled and 112 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 1: like happens to be outside and like takes this very personally. 113 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: It was sort of like yeah, I mean I you 114 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: couldn't like my message to anyone that believes that go 115 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: out there and you write that story. Yeah, like that 116 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: is so powerful, so um so smart. Which is that 117 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 1: much like people tried to explain away let's say the 118 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: election of Donald Trump. We were like we saw someone 119 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: being kind of anti social in the sense that he 120 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: was yelling at four strangers, and we were like, well, 121 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: he has to have a reason, you know. We were 122 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: like maybe it's economic anxiety. Yeah. Yeah. We were like, 123 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: well this is based in you know, politics in some way. Um. 124 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 1: And then it was like no, I think he was 125 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: just like a kind of drunk guy sitting on a stoop, 126 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: like being pissed off about nothing. And I will say 127 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: this importantly which we haven't mentioned. He had a gay boys. 128 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 1: He was gay, so they wasn't a homophobic what do 129 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: you disagree? No, But it's now occurring to me that 130 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: the listeners are probably like, oh he was he sophmore 131 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: gay guys and he wanted to like be you know, 132 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: he was like yelling at them. No, no, no, no, 133 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: it was internalized homophobia. Well, I just think it's funny 134 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: again we're making assumptions about this man, like he you 135 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: think he had gay boys. I would have never called 136 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: it gay boys. What do you think? He just had 137 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: an accent? He just had voice. I just heard voice. 138 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: I heard a beautiful He was very voicy. You know, 139 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: he should read a book of essays. So, I mean 140 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 1: he was definitely sassy. There was definitely attitude there. Yes, 141 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: he was sassy and and and I guess anyone can 142 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: be sassy. Yes, that's not gendered or sexualized, and it's 143 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: not on me. Maybe he identifies as queer but hasn't 144 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: defined it as gay. Maybe he's straight, and maybe he's 145 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: bisexual but as a girlfriend. Maybe he's bisexual but has 146 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: a boyfriend who see, anything is possible. And again, I 147 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: mean we don't know anything about this man, and yet 148 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: we're desperate um to sort of make sense of what 149 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: was just a random moment. There's even a sense where 150 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: I'm like, was he even real? Here's what I think, Actually, 151 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: I actually think we're thinking about this wrong way, and 152 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: that we think of ourselves as the main characters, and 153 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: we were like, who is this Rando telling us to 154 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: funk off? I actually think he's the main character. He 155 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:25,679 Speaker 1: was having, he was having like a kind of HBO 156 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: Girls when Hannah's at the beach with the sandwich moment, 157 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: and then suddenly here comes these four annoying, screeching gay 158 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: guys yelling about putting lipstick on buttholes, and he's like, 159 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: excuse me, I'm going through a breakup. So you're saying 160 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: that we are the like under five in his exactly 161 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: getting paid day rates. We answered an ad we're not. 162 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: We're unwrapped. We're unwrapped. Are are the character's names? Are 163 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: gay guy one too? Literally? Yes? Exactly? Yeah. Wow. I 164 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 1: mean I just think that it's crazy, and it's hard, 165 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: you know, it's hard to believe that you don't think 166 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 1: that's okay. You're kind of rejecting every so you just 167 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: like reject any kind of narrative. No, no, you're not, 168 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: you're not, Lena be finished. I'm not interesting any kind 169 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: of narrative. I just think we were four gay guys 170 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: walking down the street. You know what else there's for 171 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: of girls, the sex and the city girls and the 172 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: girls girls and the HBOS girls. I'm pretty sure were 173 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 1: the main character. Okay, okay, I'm pretty sure if there's 174 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: four people doing something, that's the story. Okay, you know what, 175 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: You're absolutely right not to mention the fact that we 176 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: each one of us was each of the girls. Yes, 177 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: one of us is just the girls. And also the 178 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: fact that we were having a conversation about putting lipstick 179 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,439 Speaker 1: on a butthole is very that is very sex in 180 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: the city like that. That's that's something that isn't like 181 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: improvised dialogue that was written and edited. That was I mean, 182 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: the network saw those lines and they like had notes 183 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: for them, and they but they loved it, they loved 184 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: the direction, but they had notes. Okay, I mean, I 185 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: guess I believe you. So maybe he was the day 186 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: he was like guy on Stoop.

Sure, sure, and all 270 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: the better to have. But are jock straps like aren't 271 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: jock straps typically like kind of utilitarian looking or are 272 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: they also like fashion? They well, that's like the thing, 273 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: are like, are there like are you talking about like 274 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: a harness situation?

Is not like some fancy expense. It's like 293 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: it's the majority basic. Yeah, And it's almost like fetishizing, 294 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: fetishizing locker room culture whatever. Yeah, yeah, I love it. 295 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 1: It's very very nineties. Can I also tell you guys 296 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: a quick story related to that intro? So, when I 297 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: was in the Peace Corps in ten I was like, 298 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: I had just well, Sam, we have to talk about this. 299 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: We went to college together. Although when did you? I 300 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: literally I have a question for you, and I didn't 301 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: look up. I could have looked up the answer, but 302 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: I wanted you to tell me and me remember this 303 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: in real time. But when did you graduate? Okay, so 304 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: we're two years apart. So I did the Peace Corps 305 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: right after v A, and I had thought about getting 306 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: an m f A after v A, but one of 307 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: my professors they're like, God blessed. I was like, I 308 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: think I could maybe write something good, and so should 309 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: I go to an m f A to see And 310 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: he was like, why don't you just try to write 311 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: something good first, and then if you actually can, you 312 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: can go to the m f A to like write 313 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: more of it. And I was like, honestly great advice, 314 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: iconic advice. So I so I went to the Peace 315 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: Corps and I was like, okay, but I still want 316 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: to write, Like I still found myself writing in my 317 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: free time. So I was like, Okay, I'm going to 318 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: just try to write a novel, something that I can complete. 319 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: That's my goal. And I was like, okay, here's my idea. 320 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: I've always been into sort of like a capsule, like 321 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: I've always wanted to write something like a script or something. 322 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: But then it was a novel that takes place with 323 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: an extremely like closed amount of time, like I just 324 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 1: rewatched Force Measure, like that kind of vibe like perfect movie, right, 325 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: like just one thing happens and then it just spirals 326 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: over forty eight hours. So it's like, Okay, I'm gonna 327 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: write a novel about four best friends who have just 328 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: graduated from college and they're walking along like the Hudson 329 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: River one day and they see a plane crash in 330 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,880 Speaker 1: the early morning and it's the rest of that day 331 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: and the tentative title for my novel was Girls, and 332 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: and so I was like in the alone, in the 333 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: middle of nowhere, like internet. The next internet place where 334 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: I can get Internet is like a two hour bus 335 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: right away, an hour long bus right aways. I'm really 336 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere writing this novel. I was 337 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 1: dating this guy who also went to u p A 338 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: actually on our related to our topic. Um, he was 339 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: in Houston. He was in grad school in Houston, and 340 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: so I could only like see him if I took 341 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: a five hour bus to the capital city and got 342 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 1: on Skype at an internet cafe, like extremely like I 343 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: was in the middle of nowhere. I did on Halloween actually, 344 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: and I disguised myself as a high school student because 345 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: I was grounded, because that's the thing that can happen 346 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 1: in peace Corps. And so I was like, if I 347 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: if someone sees me in the capital, I'll get kicked out, 348 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: which I had almost been kicked out a bunch of times. 349 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 1: And so I was like in this like elaborate disguise, 350 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: and I was like kind of cool because I was 351 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: speaking of the sort of high school you know, the 352 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: excitement of um, you know, doing high school drag, like 353 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: I was in this to me fairly exotic, Like you know, 354 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,639 Speaker 1: I'm just like a like a kirgiz school girl. And 355 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: you know, I was in and it was also my 356 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: Halloween costume, and I was Internet. I was in an 357 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: Internet cafe and I was skyping him and my laptop 358 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: was in my backpack like underneath me, and it got 359 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: stolen and with it my first novel called Girls. I mean, 360 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: it wasn't funny then, but it, to me now is 361 00:18:54,960 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 1: so funny. And then Lena Dunham found it and yeah, 362 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: like you edit, she was like, but yeah, instead of 363 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: a plane crash, she drinks, she drinks the tea yea, yeah, 364 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: instead of like over the day they go to Bushwick. Yeah, Um, 365 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: but isn't that Yeah, it's I mean, that's actually insane. 366 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 1: I know. Wow. So for us, the equivalent of the 367 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: plane crash was the guy telling us to sunk off. Yeah, 368 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: that's so. I mean, I'm not I might have missed 369 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 1: some details of that story. I was extremely soothed by um, 370 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,360 Speaker 1: your your intro just there. But I feel like that's 371 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: a really interesting conversation. And if someone walked by me 372 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 1: on the street discussing UM, I would be like I 373 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: would I would weigh in. You know, I would want 374 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: to wait, not not yell at you. Yeah, I mean 375 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 1: he was clearly not to make more narrative around him, 376 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: but he was afraid of learning more. He was overwhelmed 377 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: by knowledge. He was he was simply afraid. Yeah, putting 378 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: lipstick on a butt hole exactly. Wait, Sam did answer 379 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: if your butthole is touching your pants? Oh wait, no, 380 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 1: we've already answered it. It It is because it chafed, because 381 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: it changed. I mean, this is I'm literally like people 382 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 1: everyone wait, wait, hold on, I think I think people's 383 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: butt holes will chafe on denim unless they have strong 384 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,679 Speaker 1: butth holes, not if you've got the cheeks, you know, 385 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: not if you got the cheeks. And so what I 386 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: want to say, the reason why Sam wanted to use 387 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 1: the scientific method is because we're like, Okay, you did 388 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 1: this once and you're but happened to chafe. So maybe 389 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: it just was something else that made a chape that 390 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 1: one wasn't versus you know what I mean, you would 391 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: have to do it probably a hundred times a hundred yeah, 392 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 1: I mean at that point, you know, you need institutional funding. Yeah, exactly, 393 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 1: double blinds, you know, Yeah, yeah, you need a grant 394 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: really and of course we know how to grant. You 395 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: know that kind of grant application process can be so 396 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,400 Speaker 1: hard and it can take years and the politics. I'm 397 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: imagining sort of a patent application with a die exam 398 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: the experimental design. Um gee, I have a question, what 399 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: were the names of your characters and Gia Tolentino's girls. 400 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: I would love to know, you know what, I don't 401 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 1: even remember because the whole fucking thing was stolen, Like 402 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:16,959 Speaker 1: it in a way that this story is actually like 403 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 1: one of the reasons that I like maybe decided to 404 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 1: try to become a writer, which was not a an 405 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: ambition that I had prior to that, because it seemed 406 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: unrealistic or like does still seem a little unrealistic. But um, 407 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: I don't fucking remember, because like a, I was completely 408 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 1: insane the entire time I was in Peace Corps and 409 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: also like it was gone, like it's you know, I 410 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: worked like it was just gone, you know, I had 411 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: no backup, and so like I remember that one of 412 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: them was a teacher, because one of the girls that 413 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: was based on was a teacher, you know, like it 414 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: was really closely based on three of my close friends 415 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 1: at UV A or like my, um, I don't fucking 416 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: remember her. And it was a full not d it 417 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: was like a hundred and twenty pages, you know, so 418 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: as pretty far for you know when you're that um wait, okay, Sam, 419 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: I've been trying to think. Okay, So, as we know, 420 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,719 Speaker 1: we went to school together, and I, I mean I 421 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: knew about you and I and we met because you 422 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: were in that improv group right with my ex boyfriend 423 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 1: who I dated for all of college. You didn't him 424 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 1: all of college? That is crazy, Sam, Like, like I 425 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 1: have lived with a man with the exception of maybe 426 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 1: nine months, in my entire life, more or less NonStop 427 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: since I was sixteen. Like that's when I that's what 428 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: I mean when I say I'm tragically straight, Like I've 429 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: lived with a man in my house like not just 430 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: like it like in my Like it's I really think 431 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: I should have not done that in college, but somehow 432 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 1: I did. Um and not like I had male roommates, 433 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 1: but this was like he was in my room for 434 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 1: three years. You know, I had no idea. Yeah, you 435 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 1: know what, so he started that group. What is the 436 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: name of it? I've been trying to remember it. The 437 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:16,520 Speaker 1: Imperire group was called a moose Bush and didn't started 438 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: Oh Natasha, Oh I just saw her this. Oh she's 439 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 1: that's right, because I don't want to cast dispersions on 440 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: on this man who I truly truly loved, you know, 441 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 1: from ages seventeen to twenty or whatever. But I think 442 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: he started it because he kept not getting into the 443 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: weather Men, which is the group that all of my 444 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: roommates were in, and so between two worlds. In retrospect, 445 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,360 Speaker 1: I was like at the lynchpin of what I now 446 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: also in retrospect recognized to be like quite a tense 447 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: domestic situation. I mean, the beef between a moose Bush 448 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: and the Weatherman was so strong. Was it really real? 449 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 1: Oh my god? It would be like you guys would 450 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 1: go to each other shows but pretend like pretend that 451 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: you were supportive, but also or would you just like 452 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: do a sort of what like? No, we would try. 453 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: We tried to, like, we tried to like work together. 454 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,639 Speaker 1: We tried, like I remember like trying to like group 455 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: parties or something. Yeah, And it was always like I mean, 456 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: we were always interpreting them as like miffing us and 457 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: like thinking they're better than us because they were more popular. 458 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 1: Of course, but you guys are still going. I think 459 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: they are. I think they are. George, is this thrilling 460 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,880 Speaker 1: for you hearing about u v A improv? Well, it's funny. 461 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 1: It's funny because it's funny because this has come up before. 462 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it has come up when we had to 463 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 1: share on It's funny everyone from Sam's past. It's always 464 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: something like when we had Jeremy Harrison. Jeremy and Sam 465 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: went to high school together, and Jeremy bullied Sam in 466 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: high school and they had like a come to Jesus 467 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: moment where Jeremy, to his credit fully apologized to Sam 468 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: on air for bullying him in high school. It's really nice. 469 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: It was actually very sweet at that moment. I wish 470 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: I had bullied you so that I could if you 471 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: want to apologize for anything now I was trying to. 472 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, what like minor slight can I 473 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: bring up and we can really get into and it's 474 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: like they're actually it's not really like it was. We 475 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: were kind of ships ships in the night. I feel. 476 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 1: I was also like you met me, I was like 477 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 1: so timid and quiet. Then I was like definitely, like 478 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: it's also such a straight school That's why I went there. 479 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 1: I was like, are getting a cute boyfriend will be 480 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: much higher here than in many of them? Yes. WELLA 481 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: was like, as long as there was no gaze there, Yeah, 482 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 1: I was so homophobic.

I know, I know, I 530 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: have to say, I really am we cannot talk about politics, 531 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: but I am having kind of a crisis where I 532 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: was always like, democracy is on the ballot, is such 533 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: as such bad messaging, like appealed to like a normal person. 534 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: But I'm wrong. It seems, I mean, based on these results, 535 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, I really thought I was like so 536 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: much smarter than everyone, And I was like, no, you can't, 537 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: like people don't care about like, you know, vague truisms 538 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: and and kind of like that kind of like theoretical 539 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 1: stuff like they want to know, like what's going on 540 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: with the economy, and then it turns out I was wrong, 541 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: you know what. My not to get into it, but 542 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: did you guys see that um I voted sticker. That's 543 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 1: like the monster, you know, like the Q the Ulster County. 544 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: So that's the county I vote in. And I got 545 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 1: three stickers, not to brag. Um and because my kid 546 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: went twice, like once with me and the once with 547 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: my partner, and so she got and then we were 548 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: like give that to me, um And and turn out 549 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 1: in Ulster County was was sky high. And so if 550 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: everyone had like a meme stock version of the I 551 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: voted sticker, I honestly think you would boost turn out 552 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: better than anything. You know that that's my idea. Any 553 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: political strategists are listening, Yeah, no, it is true that 554 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: they could do so much with the I voted sticker, 555 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: even just different kinds of party favors. Oh yeah, you 556 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: know they could kind of. I mean it could be 557 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: you know, sponsored by a brand, yeah, you know, lipstick 558 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 1: dot stops. You know what people have never thought of 559 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 1: is making the elections privatized and sponsored by brand. I 560 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: think that's actually a great idea. That's a really good idea. 561 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: You can get a little T shirt Southwest Circuit exactly. 562 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 1: I would love that. I mean it does feel like 563 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it feels like you should get something for free. 564 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 1: Afterwards you do the sticker and and the pen. Okay, 565 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 1: but I don't get pen damn. But but se if 566 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: you make the sticker good enough, people will feel like, 567 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: you know, I'm just saying like everyone needs to have 568 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: the dumbest possible sticker. Yes, like limited edition drops where 569 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, you can only get this at 570 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: a specific voting booth. It's like the supreme metrom part. 571 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: That's how I felt. You know, you should get to 572 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: watch a trailer for a new movie that hasn't come 573 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: out yet. Completely agreed, because the demographic that's missing from 574 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: the polls is the film nerd demographic. All these movie 575 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: buffs are refusing to vote. It's what you just got, 576 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: like a piece of pizza that would be cool, the 577 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 1: college text, you knowing ever closer to our topic, even 578 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 1: just like a little kind of like thing of Dunkin 579 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: Donuts and you can get a get a little donut. 580 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: Holl Yeah, they like they have the big corporate little 581 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: caraft the cardboard and a little amazing lovely Okay, okay, 582 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: one more thing. They need to step and repeat I 583 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: brilliantly brilliant imagine that giant spider had been a huge 584 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: step and repeat turnout. I just idea. It's a really 585 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: good idea because it's actually cheaper. First of all, it's reusable. 586 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: You just like, you know, roll up the carpet and 587 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: you can use it again. And then the background is, 588 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 1: of course of just a giant piece of paper. Go 589 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: to kinkoes there there. It is cheaper than actually getting 590 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: a bunch of different things to give, and it probably 591 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: doesn't contravene any sort of like um whatever, FBC whatever. Yeah, yeah, 592 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 1: it's not partisan. All it will say is like election. 593 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: I mean, that's I can't say, Sam, that is truly genius. 594 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,440 Speaker 1: And everyone has a phone with a camera. You don't 595 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 1: need like a photographer. They were taking photos. Well they 596 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: should hire a photographer to be honest. Yeah, and it 597 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: should have the getty water otherwise, what's the point do 598 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: you guys take? Do you guys know about point five selfies? 599 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: Do you guys take point five selfies. You know about 600 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: this or something. It's crazy. So I told you, Like 601 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,959 Speaker 1: last night, I was with all these college students and 602 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 1: they were like all taking. They were like, let's take 603 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: point five selfies. And I was like, yeah, you know, 604 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 1: and I had no idea what they were doing. And 605 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: it's it's you turn your phone, they take it. But 606 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: it's front facing, so it's like not the typical like 607 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: I feel like I take you know, we take selfies. 608 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: I don't know how old we all. It's like the 609 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: front camp, it's the back camp. It's like the yeah. 610 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: But but and then it goes on point five so 611 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: you look really tiny. Yes, yes, yes, I have seen this. Yeah. 612 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: And they were like and I was like, oh is 613 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: this what? They were like, oh, we never take selfies 614 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: any other way, and I was like, whoa, it's kind 615 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 1: of fun. You kind of look like those Steve Madden 616 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: where it's like yeah, yea, and it is weirdly flattering 617 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: because it's so kind of um weirdly shape that you 618 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: don't actually see any of your actual features. Yeah. Yeah, 619 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: it's like fish well, it's it's a rejection of traditional 620 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: beauty standards exactly. It's a rejection of traditional beauty standards 621 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: and that way it's radical. Yeah okay, so fish so okay, 622 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: So we need a red carpet, a step in gen 623 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: z person to tell everyone how to take point five 624 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 1: selfies and over the group, right, yeah, exactly. UM, well, 625 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: I think we've saved democracy. I mean democracy is off 626 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: the ballot because we fixed democracy off the ballot because 627 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: at one UM, let's get into the topic. Actually, so 628 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: you know, backstory for those who weren't here before the 629 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: Zoom started the listeners. You know, we we brainstormed something 630 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: together that um, I think is actually pretty juicy. It's 631 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: a sorority and even Greek life. Yeah, it's one of 632 00:33:58,480 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 1: those topics that you think would be like one of 633 00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: our first five episodes, but it just never came up, 634 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: and so we've never done it. You Know, something I 635 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: learned in my improv training at the University of Virginia 636 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: is that you don't always need to think of the 637 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 1: weirdest thing. You can just say what's the most obvious 638 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: thing and sort of run with that because people will 639 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: want to hear about that. Me and my roommates, um. Also, 640 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,839 Speaker 1: we have matching rat tattoos on our butts, not our 641 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: buttholes on but because we had such a terrible rat 642 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 1: infestation at our at our home on Fourteenth Street that 643 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: um like, by the end of it, we were insane 644 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: and just all got matching tattoos. Actually the boys didn't though, um, 645 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 1: but the girls. I got matching tattoos with the girls. 646 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 1: That girls was based on the girls the HBO.

Wow. But it's not 657 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:15,800 Speaker 1: just that, it's that men are very afraid when women comin. Yeah, 658 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: A famous famous trope, Um, So you were in a sorority. Yeah, 659 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: I was in a I was in a sorority, um 660 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: which one if you don't mind me ask, it was 661 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 1: called pie Fi. It was, Oh my god, you were 662 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 1: a pie pie f we had we had pie fies 663 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: where I was. Really they were I went to Stanford 664 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 1: and they were pie fies. A big Greek scene there. No, 665 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: it's like a medium small Greek scene. I would say, um, 666 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 1: but it's it's definitely like, it's definitely. So I was 667 00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,279 Speaker 1: in the co op scene, which was like where all 668 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: the like queer people and hipsters were and we were 669 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 1: like cooking vegan food together and having like doing mushrooms 670 00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 1: and like that was kind of the vibe. And then 671 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: the straight people who had like secret Republican parents were 672 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: all in the fraternity and strities. So pi Fi, I 673 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: feel like, was like one of the more republican ones. 674 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 1: Theta was kind of like normy but cool, try it 675 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: out was like lame, literally like literally like don't even 676 00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: look at her. And then Kappa was um, all of 677 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:31,399 Speaker 1: them turned out to be gay and probably I'm sure 678 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:33,319 Speaker 1: they had. I mean I always think about if I was, 679 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: and I literally, I mean I'm not exaggerating when I 680 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: say always, Like I frequently, very very frequently think about 681 00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 1: if I had been a woman like in prior to 682 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: the four hundreds, if I had been alive. I would 683 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:50,279 Speaker 1: have absolutely tried to join a nunnery because it's the 684 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: only way that you could get through life without being 685 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 1: like just randomly impregnated every two years from sixteen to 686 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 1: thirty six, you know. And I'm like, I would have 687 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: joined a nunnery, and I and I probably would have 688 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: had tons of great sex with the other nuns, you know. Yeah, 689 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 1: and also you would have had like time to read 690 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 1: like they would. Yeah. I would have had access to 691 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,240 Speaker 1: books in a way that I never would otherwise. But um, 692 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 1: they were a bunch at v A. I think there 693 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: were probably like thirty five total a stroorities and frats. 694 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:24,479 Speaker 1: But like, okay, here is I haven't I honestly haven't 695 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: thought about in a really long time.

I was like, um, 1005 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 1: like I came out to my friends like second year, 1006 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 1: but like I was always like weird about it, Like 1007 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 1: it was like almost like half secretive or something, even 1008 00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 1: though it wasn't like I wasn't like people would could 1009 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,239 Speaker 1: talk about it or whatever, but I would, like My 1010 00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,400 Speaker 1: example is like when I was in the Spanish class, 1011 00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 1: I would say no Va, not no Vo. You know. 1012 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:29,400 Speaker 1: So it was kind of embarrassing to look back on. 1013 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 1: It's one of my big regrets is that I should 1014 00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:34,480 Speaker 1: have been more out. I don't know, it wasn't the easiest. 1015 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 1: I mean the extent to which stuff has changed in 1016 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 1: the last decade, specifically there, but you know, obviously everywhere, 1017 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:43,239 Speaker 1: but specifically, I mean, it was still like I feel 1018 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 1: like it was still two thousand two until until the 1019 00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 1: until the Rolling Stone story came out and then suddenly 1020 00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:53,160 Speaker 1: everyone was like, we gotta overhaul all this ship you know, 1021 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:57,160 Speaker 1: but it really was like very like you know, just 1022 00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,840 Speaker 1: like I remember there was a guy in my scholars 1023 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,360 Speaker 1: a class who um wore a ribbon belt when he 1024 00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 1: went jogging, and I was just always like I fucking 1025 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:08,719 Speaker 1: want to murder you, you know, like he just but 1026 00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:10,720 Speaker 1: it was just that it was really like two thousand 1027 00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:13,520 Speaker 1: two vibes for me, like very like Lagunda Beach, Like 1028 00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:18,040 Speaker 1: you know, yeah, it was very Laguna Beach. It's also 1029 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:22,240 Speaker 1: like flat iron hair and like, you know, I'm remembering 1030 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 1: a story someone in my ear and maybe this is 1031 00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:26,200 Speaker 1: boring someone in my ear who was like frat he'sing 1032 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 1: literally kidnapped. Somebody found someone on the street and like 1033 00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:34,959 Speaker 1: snatched them up, put them in a van and drove off. 1034 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,319 Speaker 1: Well there was I mean, there were there were facts 1035 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,480 Speaker 1: that got kicked off campus because of the fund up 1036 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 1: hazing ship they did. Like there were um there was 1037 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 1: one fraught that used to um kidnap people basically think 1038 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:49,279 Speaker 1: we're probably thinking of the same one. And I think 1039 00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:50,719 Speaker 1: they would just be in their underwear and it was 1040 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:52,600 Speaker 1: during the middle of winter because Russia at v A 1041 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:55,319 Speaker 1: was in January, and they would drop them off on 1042 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 1: Route twenty nine and um with nothing. Wait, kidnapped the 1043 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 1: people that were like about that, we're being recruited. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 1044 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 1: like it was you know it was I think they 1045 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:08,080 Speaker 1: probably knew that this, had probably heard that this was coming. 1046 00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:10,440 Speaker 1: But they would pick them up in their underwear, bring them, 1047 00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:14,359 Speaker 1: you know, ten miles out, no phone, no anything. They'd 1048 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:18,479 Speaker 1: be like have fun getting back, you know, like it's 1049 00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:21,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it is, so it is really funny, like 1050 00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:26,399 Speaker 1: how how pathological, how much profound harm like straight men 1051 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:27,800 Speaker 1: have to cause to each other to get to the 1052 00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:29,920 Speaker 1: point where they can talk on the phone. But that's 1053 00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:32,040 Speaker 1: the thing. But it but it really is. It's like 1054 00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 1: they have to do that. It's almost like the ends 1055 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 1: justified the means for them. You're like, well, these are 1056 00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:40,400 Speaker 1: life and what are we what were we going to do? 1057 00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:43,640 Speaker 1: Like get a drink? I don't think I think they 1058 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 1: do that? Now do you think, like, like aren't there 1059 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:49,439 Speaker 1: like tender tender bros, tender straight bros? Now? Yeah? Wait, 1060 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 1: I wanted to actually say this is like I was 1061 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,759 Speaker 1: talking about this today. So I feel like I feel 1062 00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:59,640 Speaker 1: like because of of a very well intentioned reaction against 1063 00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:03,239 Speaker 1: toxic masculinity, I now I am like a little unaware 1064 00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:07,440 Speaker 1: about what men actually want. Yeah, do you know what 1065 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:09,360 Speaker 1: I mean? Like because it's I was thinking about this 1066 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,319 Speaker 1: today where I was like, who is the equivalent even 1067 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:15,640 Speaker 1: just in terms of like a random average Joe straight guy. 1068 00:56:15,800 --> 00:56:17,960 Speaker 1: What what does he even find a track? I feel 1069 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,680 Speaker 1: like I genuinely don't know because I'm like even the 1070 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:24,719 Speaker 1: like Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue has like Elon Musk's mom 1071 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 1: on the cover, did it really yea? And it was like, 1072 00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:31,319 Speaker 1: you know, it's so which is great. I mean I'm 1073 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:34,640 Speaker 1: not it's obviously like it's everything is moving, But I'm 1074 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 1: but I'm just just like scientifically or like anthropologically, I'm like, 1075 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:42,200 Speaker 1: I now fundamentally don't understand straight men. Even I understand 1076 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:43,839 Speaker 1: them even less than I did in like two thousand two, 1077 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 1: or at least it was a lot in the open. 1078 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, you like bud light and fetishizing twins? Right, well, 1079 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 1: I think I still think there's probably sort of like 1080 00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:53,319 Speaker 1: a regression to the meme that you could conjure right now, 1081 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,920 Speaker 1: Like it's probably like you know, like what goes through 1082 00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:58,840 Speaker 1: a lot of sports media on their phone has listened 1083 00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 1: to Joe Rogan to tie him like loves a like 1084 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:05,440 Speaker 1: kind of Instagram model looking girl, you know, um like 1085 00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 1: still watches football on the weekends, um kind of thing 1086 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:12,880 Speaker 1: like probably is into crypto, you know that kind of thing. Like. 1087 00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:17,440 Speaker 1: But I so my brother, who was straight, I recently 1088 00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:19,760 Speaker 1: was asking him. I was in the Philippines. I recently 1089 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 1: spent more time with my brother than I basically have 1090 00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 1: since I was sixteen years old, because we've never lived 1091 00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:27,360 Speaker 1: in the same place, and we were in the Philippines 1092 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:29,320 Speaker 1: for almost two weeks because my grandma turned a hundred, 1093 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:32,400 Speaker 1: which is an iconic occasion to make you know, this 1094 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 1: incredibly long trek with my two year old. But I 1095 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 1: was asking I was with a bunch of cousins that 1096 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 1: I haven't also haven't seen in a long time, So 1097 00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:40,560 Speaker 1: I was asking every I was like also drunk, and 1098 00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:42,880 Speaker 1: I'm asking everyone what they're what they're shame type? Is 1099 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:45,360 Speaker 1: do you? I do you guys know that this concept? 1100 00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:48,040 Speaker 1: So it's like, you know the genre of human that 1101 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: you're most consistently attracted to despite knowing that you should 1102 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 1: be ashamed of yourself? Oh, which is a which I 1103 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,040 Speaker 1: think is a really interesting like it really tells you 1104 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,160 Speaker 1: a lot about a person. And and everyone's answers are 1105 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:01,479 Speaker 1: very interesting because it's either usually it's most always someone 1106 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:03,960 Speaker 1: that they don't respect or someone that doesn't respect them, 1107 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 1: Like it's um like those all of these issues are 1108 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 1: really intertwined. But I found out at that point, like 1109 00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to blow. I mean, there's no way 1110 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:14,920 Speaker 1: my brother or his ex girlfriend listens to this podcast.

And on top of that, 1313 01:08:56,120 --> 01:08:59,120 Speaker 1: sometimes you're actually hungover as you are a brunch and 1314 01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:02,240 Speaker 1: it is delicious. It is good for digestion, I heard, 1315 01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:05,519 Speaker 1: and it gives you something to drink that isn't orange 1316 01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:09,559 Speaker 1: juice or coffee. And also everyone will think you're it's 1317 01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:12,280 Speaker 1: a huge sleigh to order something that other people haven't considered, 1318 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:14,559 Speaker 1: and you will notice. And I promise you this that 1319 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:16,519 Speaker 1: if you do this, everyone else in the table will 1320 01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:19,360 Speaker 1: be like, you know what, make that, Make that three, 1321 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:21,720 Speaker 1: make that four, and then suddenly everyone will be having 1322 01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:23,439 Speaker 1: a virgin, bloody Mary.
