1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 1: Hi, everybody. This is George with a very quick announcement,

00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: which is that I am doing my new hour of

3
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: stand up at the Bellhouse in Brooklyn, New York on Friday,

00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: February second. So if you live in New York, please

5
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 1: come out. It's going to be so much fun. It's

6
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: a Friday night. We'll all go out dancing afterwards. I

7
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 1: can't wait. I would love to see some glamour girls there.

8
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 1: So yeah, that is Friday, February second at the Bellhouse. Okay, Lovia,

9
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: enjoy the show.

10
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 2: Podcast starts now. What is up everyone around the globe

11
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 2: from Los Angeles to Nycity? You are listening to Stradia Lab,

12
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 2: one of the more groundbreaking podcasts of the day. George,

13
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 2: how the hell are you?

14
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: Well? As you know, I just got back from a

15
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: Broadway matinee.

16
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 2: I did know that, you so, George. You know, we

17
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,479
Speaker 2: were trying to schedule rehearsals, and you know, George was like, well,

18
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,559
Speaker 2: I'm at the library from ten to noon, and then

19
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 2: you know, from one to four I'm seeing a Broadway play,

20
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 2: and then of course I have my Somalier classes after that,

21
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 2: and so it was really hard.

22
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: I do you want to reiterate as you said, we

23
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: were trying to schedule rehearsals because that is what we

24
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: were podcast We actually know my full dress rehearsal with

25
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: each guest.

26
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

27
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 2: I find that podcasting is a practice, and it's something

28
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 2: you do every day. It's not it's not a skill,

29
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 2: it's a practice. And every day I come in here

30
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: and I consider it a rehearsal that just happens to

31
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 2: be recorded.

32
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: Well, we do the Taggart method, which is that you

33
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: do endless rehearsals on a loop. They're all recorded and

34
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: at the end the director. It's actually, it's almost similar

35
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: to the way that Christopher Guest or Mike Lee shoot

36
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 1: their films. It's a natural approach to podcasting. There's no

37
00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: saying cut, saying action. We are basically talking NonStop with

38
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: each guest for approximately forty seven hours, and then out

39
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: of that, our director, who has requested not to be named,

40
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: comes in and creates an episode out of it. Yeah.

41
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's actually and that's why our tone is

42
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 2: so so much more grounded than our peers. You know,

43
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: you hear them and they sound so canned, and I

44
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 2: think a lot of people can can see it now

45
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 2: and they're like This is really jarring. Why isn't ever

46
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 2: anyone just having a normal conversation anymore. Well, it's because

47
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 2: they're not doing the rehearsal. Now, that is exactly what

48
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 2: it is.

49
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 1: And you know, people say all the time about various

50
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: gay podcasters, why are they so histrionic and annoying? And

51
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: then people will listen to our show and say, oh,

52
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: suddenly I'm transported. I don't remember last time I actually

53
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: felt like I was inhabiting a world created by two artists.

54
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and of course it takes a lot of time.

55
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: We can't have families, we can't have jobs.

56
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: No, it has ruined our lives.

57
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the product is good and when we are

58
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 2: dead and gone, people will remember that.

59
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 1: And guess what. When a product is good, all is forgiven.

60
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: And that's the number one rule of capitalism.

61
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's huge. Shout out to all who create good

62
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 2: products but are bad people.

63
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: Absolutely, And you know, if anything, I would say, you can't.

64
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: That's an oxymoron. You know you can't or not an oxymoron,

65
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 1: but that's a contradiction. You can't. If you create good products,

66
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,239
Speaker 1: you're a good person. And I can't think of any

67
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: counterexamples to that.

68
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: No me either. I'm racking my brain right now. I'm looking,

69
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 2: I'm googling, I'm having my assistant google it, and she's

70
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 2: not coming up with it.

71
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: Some people who create good art are bad people. But

72
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: you can't create a good product and be a bad person.

73
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, and if the art isn't making money, it's a

74
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 2: bad art.

75
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: Well. If it's a bad product, well period.

76
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 2: So, George, I was the play.

77
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 1: It was pretty good. I have to say, you know,

78
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 1: I don't want to get into the details, but there's

79
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: no way around this. It's tough when an ending is

80
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: not as good as the rest of the thing. M hm.

81
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: You can have a literal perfect film, a perfect book,

82
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: a perfect play, and if it doesn't stick the landing

83
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: in the final line, it leaves a bad taste in

84
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: your mouth. And it makes me it's so. I mean,

85
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: imagine being a playwright, being a novelist and writing a

86
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: literal masterpiece but fucking up the last sentence. It would hurt.

87
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 1: Only for some gay guy on a podcast to be like,

88
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: you know, you didn't quite stick to landing.

89
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 2: I know, can you imagine? That must be the hardest

90
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: part is like you spend your whole life working on plays.

91
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,239
Speaker 2: You get a play on Broadway starring star literally big stars,

92
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 2: literally big stars, and then you have to still hear

93
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 2: what gay guys on podcasts think about it. Yeah, there's

94
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 2: no freedom, I will say. I kind of fell oh please, hey, yes,

95
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 2: I kind of felt that way about Poor Things. Actually, wow, sorry,

96
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 2: has everyone mad?

97
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: Well? It is a Greek filmmaker and it is starring

98
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: friend of the podcast, Emma Stone, who is a member

99
00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: I've never met her, but she's a member of the

100
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: extended common community.

101
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: I've never met her either, but she's our executive producer. Yes,

102
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 2: you know you.

103
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: Didn't like that? Well, actually, no, I was about to

104
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: spoil something, and I won't. I'm not gonna spoil poor Things,

105
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: but I well, do you want to say a little

106
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: bit about what you didn't like about the ending?

107
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 2: Or no, I just don't like the ending was like

108
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 2: it was sort of like, Okay, I'm gonna say something

109
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 2: really mean, and you're gonna get mad at me. We

110
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 2: might even have to cut those I felt like the

111
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 2: ending was giving Emerald finel. Sorry that might have sounded

112
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 2: like I was about to vomit, but I was. Actually

113
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 2: I knifed myself in the throat because I reacted so

114
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 2: strongly to what Sam just said. Well, and I was loving,

115
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 2: I was living, I was laughing, I was enjoying this film.

116
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 2: And then the end, I was like, why does this

117
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 2: feel like promising young women all of a sudden right?

118
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: And everyone knows the point of art is to live.

119
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: It's to make the audience live, laugh, and love. And

120
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: I do agree with you actually that throughout the film.

121
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 1: What okay, here's a question for you. What do you

122
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: think is the right order for a work of art

123
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: to make you live, laugh and love as you're watched one? Yeah?

124
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: Act one is live, you think? So okay?

125
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, first, because you gotta settle in a great

126
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 2: act too, you have to laugh. That's actually a good point.

127
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,160
Speaker 2: I think that's a good point. I think it's I

128
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 2: think it's literally in order live laugh block. That's the

129
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 2: three act struction. That's actually really fascinating. Yeah, I have

130
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 2: a big sorry, go ahead, Well do you disagree with

131
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 2: me on the general.

132
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: I don't think I would say it's tough.

133
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 2: And it's okay, it's okay.

134
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 1: I think my issues with poor things, which generally speaking,

135
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: I really liked and I thought all the performances are great,

136
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 1: especially Emison and Mark Ruffalo. My issue with it was

137
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: less about the ending and more about how like I

138
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: couldn't help and not to be, you know, a blogger

139
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 1: for Mike dot Com in twenty fourteen, But I couldn't

140
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: help but feel like, this is a movie made by

141
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: men about womenhood. Womanhood, you know what I mean? Wow,

142
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: Like I didn't expect that from me. I'm sorry, it's

143
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: so Obama era. I can't believe I even said that.

144
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: I know we're post woke. Wow, that's shocking. Do you

145
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: think that's but I know, I'm not saying that's a

146
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: disqualifying thing. But if there was if there was a

147
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: way I could articulate my general, a general critique I

148
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: had of it, it was a little bit that like, yeah,

149
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: there was there's something that there was something that felt

150
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: outsider looking in about the experience of the Bella character.

151
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I love all film.

152
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 2: I love all film, and I love everyone involved in

153
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 2: it in it from top to bottom. Yes, And I

154
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 2: would never critique any thing in a theater ever, first setla.

155
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: Theaters or for living, laughing and loving.

156
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, if you have a negative thought, keep it

157
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 2: to yourself. That's what I always say.

158
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 1: Here's the other thing I'll say about endings, and especially

159
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: endings to I don't want to say comedies, but things,

160
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: but works of art that at least thrive on humor

161
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 1: in some capacity, and whether that's a sort of I

162
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: would say poor things fits into that mold. I feel like, well,

163
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: it is non stop all apse. So what I would

164
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: say is there are sort of two ways to end

165
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,239
Speaker 1: something that engages with humor but is not a broad comedy.

166
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: One is to really commit to the humor and end

167
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 1: essentially on a punchline, and the other is to try

168
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: so hard to tie everything together and really make the

169
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: point and like make an earnest point at the end

170
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: and be like, all this humor it was, it was

171
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: leading to this big idea. And I'm always in favor

172
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 1: of ending on a joke.

173
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well it's a cooler way to end.

174
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: It's a cooler way to end. And it's also you

175
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: you know, got to trust your audience to draw the

176
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 1: right conclusions.

177
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I also think it's sort of being like, yeah,

178
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 2: as soon as you're like, I'm not going to tell

179
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 2: you what to think, then your audience is like Okay,

180
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 2: I love you totally. And if you're like, here's what

181
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 2: to think, then you're like, okay, well then I hate you.

182
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: Well you have to that you have to send your

183
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: audience to Montessori school where they can learn for themselves,

184
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 1: rather than like homeschooling them in a Christian evangelical way.

185
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 2: I think that's so smart, and I think that's a

186
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 2: huge lesson of filmmaking. I mean, I, for one, as

187
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 2: soon as there's a character that you know, even like,

188
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,079
Speaker 2: goes to the store and we don't see them get

189
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 2: in the car, I'm sort of like, wow, this filmmaker

190
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 2: really trusts me to know how they got to the

191
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 2: store exactly? Yes, yeah, wow, all right, yeah yeah wow.

192
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 2: I mean that was a takedown of the film industry

193
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 2: and a lifting up of the film.

194
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:48,360
Speaker 1: Industry and the theater industry not you know, needless to say, well.

195
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 2: In the podcast, in the industry, if we're getting into.

196
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 1: Course, the only industry that has been left unscathed is music.

197
00:09:53,760 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 1: But careful, mark Ronson, because we're coming for you next. Mama.

198
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 2: Should we bring in our guest?

199
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: We must, you know all I want. Here's the thing

200
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: I've told you this, Corey stole the actor Corey Stole

201
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 1: was in this play that I saw, and I was

202
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: it is actually uncouth to even describe the level of

203
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 1: fural I was for him the entire time. I think

204
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 1: it would actually make everyone lose so much respect for

205
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: me if I were to actually describe in English in language,

206
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 1: how absolutely I had to hold myself from crawling up

207
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 1: to the stage and pouncing on him.

208
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 2: And he's not necessarily in a horny role.

209
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: He just is he swearing a polo shirt the entire time,

210
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: although there is a priories wearing PAJAMASO. But no, he's

211
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 1: not in a horny role. It's not necessarily a likable character.

212
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: You don't You're not attractive the character. But I'm sort

213
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 1: of like, should people be allowed to look like that?

214
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 2: I think no, I think, well, I think it depends

215
00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 2: on where you are. I think this is something I've

216
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 2: been pawned. It's sort of the New York versus LA conversation.

217
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 2: I think in New York you should not be allowed

218
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 2: to look like that. I think in LA you actually

219
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 2: should be required.

220
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: To look like that.

221
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 2: I find I find, you know, I was thinking today

222
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 2: there needs to be some sort of punishment for people

223
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 2: not being camera ready at all times.

224
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 4: Yes, specifically is La for crying out? Specifically in Los Angeles?

225
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 4: You mean specifically in Los Angeles, California? Is that film

226
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 4: built this town? Why are you guys not camera ready?

227
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 1: Wait? We need to bring them, you know. Talk about

228
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: someone who's camera ready our guest exactly. And she was

229
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: camera ready the entire time she filmed her new comedy special,

230
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: which you can watch now. Please welcome Blair Saki in

231
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 1: Los Angeles' own Blair Saki.

232
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 5: Oh my god, what a treat. I've been blessed to

233
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 5: be here with you two today. It's been all along, it's.

234
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 6: Been a while, and before we begin, I I was

235
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 6: so sure I was about to get the name right,

236
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 6: and then I questioned myself immediately live at the Big Dog.

237
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 5: Live from the Big Dog.

238
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: See, and I knew I was wrong. That's why I

239
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: was in The Big Dog Lives.

240
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,880
Speaker 3: It's a live nation's new streaming platform. Okay, I heard

241
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 3: of it, just launching their comedy specials. So yeah, it's out.

242
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 3: I'm very proud of it. I'm excited, so damn. But

243
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:41,200
Speaker 3: more on Cory Stole. Honestly, did I watch someone who

244
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 3: doesn't often publicly say this I did watch seven seasons

245
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 3: of Billions, and Corey Stole really became a fixture on

246
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,719
Speaker 3: their U print, my print, and yeah, so I'm intimately

247
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 3: acquainted with Cory Stole.

248
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: Do they let him be hot in it?

249
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say so in a in a sinister

250
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 3: billionaire way, of course. He's like he is sinister. He

251
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 3: comes in as sort of like he's this playing this

252
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 3: good man philanthropist, like good boy billionaire, and then it

253
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 3: all is revealed, you know.

254
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: Wow, wow, yeah, wow.

255
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 5: Yeah.

256
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 2: You know, that's a show that has existed for a

257
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,720
Speaker 2: long time and I'm never sure where it stands in

258
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 2: the culture.

259
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,680
Speaker 3: You know, it's really funny that we were talking about

260
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 3: topics about straight things and Billions never came up.

261
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: Billion really is such a strange show, although you know,

262
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: I once watched three episodes of it on a plane

263
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: and first of all, loved it. Wow. And second of all,

264
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 1: I actually think it has some great roles for women.

265
00:13:55,400 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 3: Well, Damian Lewis, I want to just destroy me. And

266
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 3: then the him going the rivalry with him and Paul

267
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 3: Giamari is incredible.

268
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so there are I mean, from what I remember,

269
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: first of all, there's this sort of character that's this

270
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: woman who's basically like the office therapist. Like I think

271
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: she's a professional psychology Wendy. Yeah, And so basically when

272
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: they feel like insecure or emasculator or whatever, they go

273
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: to her office and then she's like, who's a big

274
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: boy who's going to go out and crush them? And

275
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: then she like breaks them down and then they're like

276
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: ready to go out and close the big deal. And

277
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: then also Paul Giamari has a dominatrix and he and

278
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: he's now dating the actress who plays her. Wow, that's nice.

279
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 5: Well, Wendy is his wife.

280
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 3: Before they break up, she was his dominatrix. But then

281
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 3: he goes to otherwise. Oh but yes, it's it's just

282
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 3: it's so interesting.

283
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 2: You know what's tough. Here's what it is when there's

284
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 2: a billions and a succession. Yeah, we have a new

285
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 2: bugs life. Aunts.

286
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 1: Since it's really true and it's and billions, I do

287
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: feel like the entire time it was on the air,

288
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: it was never the number one of its type because

289
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 1: I feel like even when it first came out, it

290
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 1: wasn't Succession, but it was like something else that was big.

291
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: There was always some other big business men show that

292
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: is overshadown business.

293
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's funny and like because it did

294
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 3: go seven series is just recently had the series finale.

295
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 5: I'm devastated. I'm sorry, but I only came to thank you.

296
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,160
Speaker 3: I appreciate that, really, I appreciate your condolences. But I

297
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 3: only came to Billions in the Pandemic because I had

298
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: watched everything and then I was like, I'm really into

299
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 3: this show, Like I just want all this just.

300
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 5: Blaring masculinity being shoved down my throat, you know.

301
00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's sort of just me. Is Paul Giamati

302
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 3: a straight a straight topic?

303
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 2: You know? Paulgiaway is an interesting one. I actually I

304
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 2: think you bring up an interesting question because I can

305
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 2: feel the tides of the Internet standing him in a

306
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 2: way that is new, and I feel even eroticizing Paul

307
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 2: Giamatti in a way that is new. Sure, and it's

308
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 2: one of those things where I'm like, one, I get it,

309
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 2: I support it, of course I do. But then it's

310
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 2: like it's starting to feel we've talked about this before,

311
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 2: where like gay people love to like take things that

312
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 2: are bad and make them be like actually, it's really

313
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 2: it's actually camp it's actually good. And taking Paul Giamatti

314
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 2: and making him hot. I feel like, now this is

315
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 2: like a new thing that I've seen people do with

316
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 2: a few different people, and I'm like, I actually am

317
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 2: kind of bored with taking people that are like thought

318
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 2: of as not hot and then making them hot.

319
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 1: Well, this is, first of all, I want to say.

320
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: I saw a tweet that said Paul Giamatti is Stanley

321
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 1: Tucci for girls who don't watch their sheets.

322
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:57,040
Speaker 5: I saw that one.

323
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw that one. Yeah. And also this ties

324
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 1: back to the conversation we were having last week Sam

325
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,959
Speaker 1: about like how we're sort of uninspired by ironic mascots

326
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: now like Blair. We were talking about like I agree

327
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 1: with George Santos and like Gypsy Rose Gypsy rosee Gypsy Rouge,

328
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 1: the famous drag queen Gypsy Rose, Like it used to

329
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:25,919
Speaker 1: be so fun to be like, oh, camp Icon, the

330
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,680
Speaker 1: guy that said leave Britney alone, what's his name? Chris Crocker,

331
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 1: Like you sorted to take someone that's like quote unquote embarrassing,

332
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 1: and then like re or that guy.

333
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 3: That asked that one question Trump Yeah, Ken, Yeah, yeah, yeah,

334
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 3: I'm just like okay, come on, I didn't quite as

335
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 3: as someone who would literally die for Stanley Tucci. I

336
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 3: didn't quite that resonate.

337
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:54,959
Speaker 5: With that tweet.

338
00:17:55,080 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 3: I also have loved Paul Giamatti for a long long time,

339
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 3: and I have noticed the same thing people coming for

340
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 3: around him in a new way. I do feel like

341
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 3: Paul Giamatti is like if Vince Vaughn went.

342
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 5: To arts school. You know, he's like a.

343
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 3: Culture Vince Vaughn in that he does these extremely fast

344
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 3: talking monologues in every.

345
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 5: Single totally yeah he's in you.

346
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 3: Know, And I'm like, oh, okay, you you are a

347
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 3: refined arts school Vince Vah.

348
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I see. I think that makes sense.

349
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 2: I have a question, do you guys think like PR

350
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 2: teams are behind like we're going to make you hot now?

351
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 1: Well, not for Paul Giamatti. I'm just going to come

352
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: right out and say that I think that was an organic,

353
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:44,640
Speaker 1: bottom up either.

354
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 2: That's a grassroots move.

355
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: That's great love, of course, I do know.

356
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 2: I love him, and I get the I think he's

357
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 2: hot as well.

358
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 5: Yeah I do too.

359
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 2: It's just the memificationication.

360
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: What it does is it takes something that's like a

361
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: minority opinion, you know. I think if you were to ask, yes,

362
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 1: ten women off the street, do you want to fuck

363
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 1: Paul Jamadi? Yes, I think most of them would say no,

364
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: And I'm not And I'm saying that as a fan, right, Okay,

365
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 1: so it's a minority opinion. When you take that and

366
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: make it a meme, you're like taking the novelty away

367
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: and you're this is a subculture and a community, a

368
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,880
Speaker 1: thriving community of women who do think Paul Jamadi is hot,

369
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: and they have been having meetings behind closed doors and

370
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 1: suddenly you're putting your saying this is a reality show

371
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: on broad me.

372
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 5: My costume is.

373
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:37,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. But in terms of like our PR teams

374
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 1: behind my sort of like hot take about people over

375
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: and like overestimating the power of publicists. And I say

376
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 1: this with love because some of my best friends are publicists.

377
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,120
Speaker 2: Yes, of course, publicist, any publicists like a sister.

378
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 1: I love publicists and a lot of people to know this,

379
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: I worked as as MPR for one year of my life,

380
00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: a very long time ago. Having said that, not the

381
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 1: smartest people, I don't think the amazing, amazing personalities. Some

382
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: of the best people to go out with, they're so

383
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 1: well groomed.

384
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 2: Well.

385
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: I always said about PRP both men and women bags.

386
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 1: Yeah amazing. They somehow always are designer head to toe,

387
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,360
Speaker 1: and they have a story about how they got each thing.

388
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: It's everything is unclear. That said, I just simply don't

389
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 1: think they have it in them to like really take

390
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: Paul Jamadi and make him into a sex symbol.

391
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:32,639
Speaker 5: Yeah.

392
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess sometimes I want to believe conspiracies. I

393
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 2: it's it's sometimes more comforting to be like, there's a

394
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 2: higher power, uh in charge of memifying Paul Giamatti being hot,

395
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 2: rather than to think about sort of the ebbs and

396
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 2: flows of the internet.

397
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 5: Yeah.

398
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 3: My one problem that a lot of my friends have

399
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:56,200
Speaker 3: made me alerted me too, is that I just take

400
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 3: everything literally, Like I never consider that there could have

401
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,359
Speaker 3: been an orchestration behind anything.

402
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,640
Speaker 5: Sure, I'm constantly they're telling me their word.

403
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 3: I'm going to end up in a cold accidentally because

404
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 3: I just believe everyone.

405
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 5: It's a difficult way to let.

406
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: You're in a really great industry if you're impressionable.

407
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,639
Speaker 5: Oh I know, it's good. I feel safe all the time.

408
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 1: Yeah.

409
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. I actually, speaking of back to the LA conversation,

410
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 2: I was sort of like, so, when are the cults

411
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:25,360
Speaker 2: going to try to recruit me, Like I was like,

412
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 2: why is it taking so long? I'm actually down for

413
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 2: a new friend group and where are they?

414
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 3: But you don't know at the beginning is why they go, Oh,

415
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 3: you want to hang I'm just having some people over

416
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 3: at the house.

417
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 5: We're going to play some games.

418
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:40,400
Speaker 3: I feel like that's sort of how it starts, don't

419
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 3: you think, Yeah, that's how it starts.

420
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,920
Speaker 2: That's that's the side effect of home based culture. Yeah,

421
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:46,959
Speaker 2: because everyone has a home, that's where the colts are

422
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:47,240
Speaker 2: for No.

423
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I feel like next.

424
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 3: Time you get invited anywhere in Laurel Canyon or something,

425
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 3: just keep your eyes peeled.

426
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,199
Speaker 5: I think that's probably your way in.

427
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 2: That could be amazing.

428
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. The thing with La people inviting into their house

429
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: is in the beginning, when you're in la you start

430
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 1: like often people have and I hate to use this term,

431
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: bad vibes, like just like a sort of sketchiness about them.

432
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: And at first, sure, wait, that guy's kind of sketchy,

433
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 1: that girl's kind of sketchy, And then you start realizing, oh,

434
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 1: that's just like what all this is just a baseline.

435
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,679
Speaker 1: In the same way that everyone in New York is

436
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: a little pretentious, let's say, and you have to like

437
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,600
Speaker 1: get over that and be like, but they're also nice.

438
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 1: But they're also In LA, the equivalent of being pretentious

439
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 1: is being like kind of sketchy.

440
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 2: Sure, sure, yeah, Like there's a there's a scam element

441
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 2: to almost everything.

442
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 1: Everyone is trying to tell you something.

443
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, everyone has the answer. Everyone's like, just work with

444
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,919
Speaker 2: me and like and in two years you'lle be fully different.

445
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 2: No one they have no past. No one here has

446
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 2: a past.

447
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,640
Speaker 1: Oh no, this is a you know. There's a famous

448
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,520
Speaker 1: clip of Joan Rivers on Celebrity Apprentice where she goes

449
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,959
Speaker 1: to this woman. She's like, this woman is a professional

450
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: poker player and is also I contested, and Joan Rivers

451
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 1: is like, you're a poka player, a PoCA player. I've

452
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: been to Vegas. None of your people have last names,

453
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: and I do feel like I do feel like in

454
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: LA it's very none of you people have last names.

455
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 3: I do think that's true. Everyone escaped from somewhere here.

456
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

457
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

458
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 2: Also, people never want to just say they're unemployed, right,

459
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 2: I don't get that. Somebody was like, I'm an independent

460
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 2: film producer and I was like, oh, what company do

461
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 2: you work for and they're like none, so like you're unemployed.

462
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 3: I will tell you this has been a painful lesson

463
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 3: to learn as a woman navigating dating apps.

464
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 5: Every time I learned, you know.

465
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 3: It only took me a few times god willing where

466
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 3: I was like, Okay, producer is an interpreted word. Yeah,

467
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 3: that is not a hard job in this town.

468
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,639
Speaker 2: Oh no, producer literally means anything. If you sent a

469
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 2: single email, you are a pretty It really is true.

470
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 1: Crazy producer is you know, in the way that you know,

471
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 1: the stereotype used to be like, oh, some like beta

472
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 1: guy who's wearing like eternalneck or whatever. He's like, oh,

473
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: I'm a writer, and you're like are you really? And

474
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: then I feel like saying I'm a producer just adds

475
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 1: a certain sheene of like, well he could be rich,

476
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 1: but it's just as useless as saying I'm a writer. Right.

477
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 3: But I went on this day and it was truly,

478
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 3: you know, as cliche as it gets.

479
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 5: Like this guy's like.

480
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,119
Speaker 3: I just got here from Houston two days ago and

481
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 3: then starts asking me how to get agents and manager

482
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 3: and I'm.

483
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 5: Like, what, how is this happening to me? I don't

484
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 5: want this?

485
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 3: And then I get it the same I get it

486
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 3: on the other end, where like I don't even advertise him.

487
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 3: It's like finally when they do ask me, and I

488
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:49,920
Speaker 3: have to be honest, like what I do for a living.

489
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 3: I'm a comedian, and like they all think it's some

490
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 3: cute little hobby, you know, like I'm just being like, No,

491
00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 3: I live in l Yeah, I do comedy totally, I

00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 3: do it, you know.

493
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Wow, that does seem tough. I've heard that's tough.

494
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 5: Thank you for your sympathy.

495
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you. Wait, should we do our first segment?

496
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 2: Yeah? Okay, I think that was perfect. I feel so

497
00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 2: cleansed after that. We went off for a second.

498
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: No, I'm really flying high. I have to say, you know,

499
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 1: I woke up today, I went, I saw a matinee

500
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 1: and now I'm chatting with my friends. Is there a

501
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 1: can you imagine a better Saturday? And in winter in

502
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:37,719
Speaker 1: New York Heaven?

503
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 3: Honestly, I've been looking forward to being reunited with you

504
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 3: guys for so long.

505
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's such a treat. I mean, I George, I

506
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 2: didn't I have the opposite feeling, but coming here, yeah,

507
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:49,120
Speaker 2: I feel home.

508
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 1: Well for you, this is your matinee because you're three

509
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: hours behind. So as soon as this is over, you're

510
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: going to have your second act like I'm having now,

511
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be something even more fun.

512
00:25:58,720 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 5: Wow.

513
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 2: Wow, that's amazing. Thank you for that, beautiful Blair.

514
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: First segment. Our first segment is called straight Shooters, and

515
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,919
Speaker 1: in this segment, we gauge your familiarity with and complicity

516
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: in straight culture by asking you a series of sort

517
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: of meaningless questions where you have to choose one thing

518
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,359
Speaker 1: or another thing. And the one rule is you can't

519
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 1: ask any follow up questions about how the game works,

520
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: about how about honestly, like which one you should choose

521
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: or which heuristic you should use? And if you do

522
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:36,639
Speaker 1: ask a question, we will get pretty mad. Okay, okay, Sam,

523
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: would you like to start, Yes, Blair doing a wellness

524
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 1: check or saying, eh, what the heck?

525
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 5: What the heck?

526
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 1: Blair having a civil debate, or having an evil workmate.

527
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 2: Evil workmate Blair, the boy and the Heron or the

528
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 2: Mark who is Maren?

529
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 5: The Mark who is Maren?

530
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: I love that guy? Blair having empathy for your neighbor,

531
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 1: or visiting the embassy as the secretary of labor.

532
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 5: Oh I don't like labor.

533
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: You're famous an anti union legend, an union legends Lairsaki.

534
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 2: Okay Blair, the little mermaid or the big milkmaid, Big milkmaid.

535
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 1: Thank god Blair. Take a walk on the wild side,

536
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,360
Speaker 1: or Sandra Bullock in the blind side.

537
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 2: That was really amazing syllable word Sandra Bulloch on the side, okay, Blair.

538
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:57,679
Speaker 2: A personality that's well adjusted, or a municipality that's poorly constructed.

539
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 1: Oh okay Blair. Mergers and acquisitions or urging her to audition.

540
00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 3: Oh wow, mergers and acquisitions.

541
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 2: Wow, that was the groundbreaking round.

542
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. I actually it's funny. I was looking at mine.

543
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: I was like, these are not very good, and now

544
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: that I've said them out loud and They've been complimented

545
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: by your amazing one, Sam, I'm like, that was a

546
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 1: really good round.

547
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 2: No.

548
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,640
Speaker 5: I thought that those were hot, hot, hot high.

549
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 1: Thank you, Yeah, Blair. We rank all our guests performance

550
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: on a scale of one to one thousand doves. I

551
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 1: gotta say to me, that was like, I haven't it's

552
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: certainly above nine hundred. I haven't decided where exactly it is.

553
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: What do you think, Sam, I think nine hundred and

554
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 1: twenty one is correct. I found that you did something

555
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 1: so important, which is Sam and I, as listeners will know,

556
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 1: it's been a while since we've recorded. This is our

557
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 1: second episode back after Big hiatus, and the fact that

558
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 1: you were laughing so much did so much for our

559
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: confidence that we were actually able to be better at

560
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 1: asking the questions.

561
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it actually, you know, it was like we felt

562
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 2: so confident for the first time in a long time.

563
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 2: I agree, And I felt like it was like, don't forget,

564
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 2: like you were saying, don't forget, this is fun.

565
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's actually what I was spiritually saying to let

566
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 3: the thie wise. I really wanted you guys to know.

567
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 3: I wanted you to remember who the fuck you are totally.

568
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 1: Yes. Well, you know, sometimes I wonder like, is it

569
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:38,239
Speaker 1: really smart that we think of two random things that

570
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 1: barely rhyme and then just say them at our guests

571
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: and have them pick one at random, Like is that

572
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 1: a smart segment? Is it something that potentially would be

573
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: a waste to do every single week for four calendar years?

574
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 1: But then when I hear your laughter, and when I

575
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 1: hear how much I'll say it joy, it brings to

576
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: people to hear us say it. I mean yeah, I'm like,

577
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: this is why we do it.

578
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, and don't don't ever underestimate that you guys really

579
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 3: brought it. And I don't ever want you to just

580
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 3: even feel a millisecond of doubt.

581
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 2: Do you think self doubt has any purposes, purposes, yes,

582
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 2: any value?

583
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 5: Absolutely absolutely.

584
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 3: It's the nervous system has a little mind of it's

585
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 3: fucking owned down there, and it doesn't care about progress,

586
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 3: doesn't care about your happiness.

587
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 5: It cares about keeping you safe. So really, self doubt

588
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 5: is like a little devilish bodyguard down there. Wow in

589
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 5: your liver.

590
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 2: Wow, Wow, that's amazing.

591
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 5: I know.

592
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: What about the people that don't have self doubt that

593
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 1: like really thrive.

594
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 3: I almost have said someone's name, Oh my god, the

595
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 3: top of my head, the number one name off the

596
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 3: top of my head.

597
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: Are about someone who doesn't have self doubt? Is out

598
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: your Yes? Yes I would know?

599
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,239
Speaker 3: Yeah off camera? Oh my god, of course, where I'm

600
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 3: going to tell you first thing?

601
00:30:58,240 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 1: Oh thank god, you'll say, I know you.

602
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 5: Like absolutely, that man has never had it selfed out?

603
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 2: Oh man, Okay, we're whittling it down.

604
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

605
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 2: Does he wear glasses?

606
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,479
Speaker 5: No, he doesn't.

607
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 1: I think I know who it is. I, well, I'm

608
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 1: having a real dilemma right now. What I hurt something

609
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 1: the other day. It's a sort of it's I would

610
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 1: say something that could result in a really long conversation.

611
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 1: It is a new way of looking at personalities in

612
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: the world, and I'm debating whether or not to bring

613
00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: it into the conversation now and potentially derail everything and

614
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 1: not get into our topic yet, or if I want

615
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: to wait and bring it up later. I think we

616
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 1: have plenty of time, and I actually think you should

617
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: do it. Okay, So, Sam, you remember my friend Milana.

618
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 1: We went to Hyme together. Yes, So last night I

619
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: was with my friend Milana and she introduced me to

620
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: a new way of gauging people's personalities that she read

621
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: on a substack called Dyke domesticity. And basically, imagine an

622
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 1: X ax and a Y axis. Okay. One of the

623
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: axes goes from baby to from baby to mommy okay okay,

624
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 1: and the other one goes from surf to tyrant. Surf

625
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 1: is in like a surf in a you know, yes, society.

626
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,239
Speaker 1: So basically each person is so baby mommy, I think

627
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 1: is pretty self expanditory. If you're a baby you're the

628
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 1: one being taken care of mommy, You're doing caretaking. Surf

629
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: tyrant is like the surf does all the work, and

630
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 1: the tyrant is the one like barking orders and sort

631
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 1: of being the CEO. And so it's like, are you like, yes,

632
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: so basically and I are you like you can be

633
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: a baby tyrant, a mommy surf, a mommy tyrant. So

634
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 1: that's basically what I wanted to say.

635
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 2: No, no, I'm trying to I wish are do you

636
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 2: have any like examples in film or TV of sort

637
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 2: of a baby tyrant or a I'm.

638
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: Well baby is for sure a baby tyrant.

639
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 5: By anyone can see that from a mile away.

640
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 2: Of course, Well I know he's literally a baby, but

641
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 2: is the mommy, Well he's.

642
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,160
Speaker 5: A baby mommy tyrant.

643
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I think we were saying, like in your relationship,

644
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: what are you or oh? Like for me, I feel

645
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 1: like almost the most toxic thing you can be is

646
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: baby tyrant, because you are the one barking all the

647
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 1: orders but then also needing care the entire time.

648
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm certainly baby. I can't decide if I'm sir

649
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 2: for tyrant. I'm somewhere in the middle.

650
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: Because I think I'm well, that's why the X axis

651
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: and y access helps because you spectrum the spectrum, and

652
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:45,719
Speaker 1: so it's difficult to describe it verbally.

653
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, because those are all extremes and everybody knows nothing

654
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 3: is nothing is all Binders.

655
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 2: A Republican getting like super upset. It's like when I

656
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 2: was growing up, you either baby or mommy.

657
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 1: These days you'll you'll know someone, Oh I used to

658
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: be a baby. Now I'm a mommy.

659
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 2: Ah. Yes, what.

660
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: Do you think Joe Biden is baby or mommy?

661
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 5: Baby baby baby surf?

662
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 1: I babe baby surf. I think maybe I think Joe

663
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 1: Biden's baby, sir.

664
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think he falls too much for a tyrant.

665
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 2: I think when he was younger he was maybe tyrant,

666
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 2: but now he's baby surf. Yeah, but he's always been

667
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 2: baby totally. Like you know, I think a lot of

668
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 2: politicians actually fall into baby because there's a lot of

669
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 2: pampering that comes with it.

670
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 1: Absolutely, it's very much like, oh my god, put that away,

671
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,879
Speaker 1: he's coming. He's Yes, they're all I mean, it goes

672
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: back to billions, right, but to Billy literally all of

673
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:59,440
Speaker 1: them have to have a dominatrix. Yes, yeah, yeah.

674
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 2: To get anything done.

675
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,280
Speaker 5: I think all comedians are stubs too for the most.

676
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:08,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, they need, certainly all male comedians they need. Yes, Yeah, yeah,

677
00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:10,319
Speaker 1: it's kind of a bummer.

678
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:14,880
Speaker 2: Actually, you're telling me sim sometimes like it's so I

679
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,439
Speaker 2: think the biggest the biggest issue is like when there's

680
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 2: like a comedy hang yeah, and it's like, okay, so

681
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 2: no one brought anything, Like it's like why did no

682
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 2: one bring anything? And it's like everyone's just like what

683
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 2: can I get here? Like who can take care of me?

684
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: It's literally a bunch of people going somewhere being like

685
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:32,439
Speaker 1: I heard their street food. I heard their street food,

686
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,319
Speaker 1: and then no one got the metal that someone needs

687
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:35,240
Speaker 1: to bring the free food.

688
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, no one has ever hosted a dinner party.

689
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's comedy.

690
00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,919
Speaker 2: The it's like they started in college like literally going

691
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:49,319
Speaker 2: to like improv comedy group meeting free pizza, and from

692
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 2: there they expected free pizza everywhere they went.

693
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 5: But every day I get older, it disgusts me.

694
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 1: You know, it really is. It is deeply humiliating. Yeah.

695
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm like can I get a nice Christine? Can

696
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 3: I get can I have a beautiful breed? Can someone

697
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 3: do anything?

698
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: Yeah? It would be so so amazing if they.

699
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 3: Could please roast a chicken, you know, have a cloth napkin.

700
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 5: I'm sicken.

701
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 1: My challenge, my challenge for all the comedians out there

702
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 1: is tried doing something.

703
00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 2: That's and it's an easy challenge. But we'll see. Yeah, okay,

704
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,279
Speaker 2: so should we get into the top.

705
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 1: I think we have to? Yes?

706
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 2: Is that tyrant of me? Mommy tyrant?

707
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: No? No, I was actually feeling like I was feeling

708
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: insecure because I felt like the topic was not as

709
00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 1: juicy as I wanted it to be. But you know what,

710
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,280
Speaker 1: now the door has been opened and we can literally

711
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 1: go back to it like in a year and be like,

712
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 1: I think I think that will come up a lot.

713
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:48,760
Speaker 5: Yes, I think it's juicy.

714
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 1: I don't know.

715
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think you're I think you're unders saying

716
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:53,560

724
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, the skatery element to it, the chill guy.

725
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he was a wrestler with a nice

726
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:28,879
Speaker 3: curly mullet. But yes, yes, exactly, just coming in hardcore,

727
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:34,360
Speaker 3: just men men eating the pizza, sitting at the table

728
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 3: in his nice, sort of unconventional, forceful way.

729
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:41,400
Speaker 1: Thank you for correcting me.

730
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 2: You know, it's so hard when someone just says a

731
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 2: guy's name and I say.

732
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 5: I'm really happy I know where you were coming for the.

733
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 1: Team, because I had literally no idea who that.

734
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 5: Was from, save by the bell.

735
00:37:53,960 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 1: So that for me, that is my bad. You should

736
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: be able to reference the bell.

737
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 3: It's fine, And I get where the skater was coming

738
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:07,720
Speaker 3: from because you look at me and you think skater.

739
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 1: Yes, the name sounded very.

740
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's sort of me. This is me, that

741
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 5: is you.

742
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I think of you as more surf, yes, surfing.

743
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 2: Surf and skater are so similar.

744
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 3: Surf girl, surf girl, and then skating obviously being a

745
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 3: tertiary experience to surfing, of course, yeah, adjacent.

746
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 2: As far as I'm concerned. You can surf on to

747
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 2: land and then it becomes skateboard.

748
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, skateboarding is just dry surfing.

749
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 5: Absolutely beautifully said.

750
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:39,399
Speaker 1: Yeah.

751
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 5: Yeah.

752
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,760
Speaker 2: Snowboarding though, that's a whole different thing. Yeah, okay, pizza

753
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:49,959
Speaker 2: places for me, it's so high school coded right that

754
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 2: that's sort of what the peak of it for me,

755
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,799
Speaker 2: where it's like you're going there with like your like

756
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 2: six friends that because you just had a soccer game together.

757
00:38:59,400 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 5: Totally.

758
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 2: I feel like there has so many memories of being

759
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 2: in a pizza place and being like, this is school related,

760
00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 2: this is sports related, this is this is a leg

761
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,839
Speaker 2: an arm of the systems, right.

762
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 5: The systems.

763
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,720
Speaker 3: That's what I've always said about the pizza places, the system.

764
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:18,520
Speaker 2: When I'm in a pizza place, I'm saying, I still

765
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 2: have my mask on. Yeah, you know, I'm not allowed

766
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 2: to live out loud here. Yeah, and I won't be

767
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 2: living out loud for a few, like an hour or two.

768
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 5: They did.

769
00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,240
Speaker 3: They would bring in like the Felt soccer team banner,

770
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:33,400
Speaker 3: you know, with all the Apple Quet pictures on it

771
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 3: to the pizza place.

772
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:35,399
Speaker 2: Yeah.

773
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, But the thing was.

774
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 3: For my childhood anyways, because now, as you know, fully

00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 3: But as a child, when I was going to those

780
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 3: pizza places. Even in high school, you know, it's a

781
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:57,000
Speaker 3: toxic time where everyone the Lindsay Lohan, the Paris Hilton,

782
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 3: it was you couldn't be over one hundred pounds of

783
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 3: co And so when I would be eating the pizza

784
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 3: in front of guys my age, I would be forcing

785
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 3: myself to only eat like one piece or two pieces,

786
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 3: but I would try to eat slowly when really I

787
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 3: could eat the whole thing.

788
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, well the pizza. Really, pizza is a very gendered

789
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: experience because for guys, pizza is like fuck you up pizza.

790
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: And then if you're a girl, you basically have two options.

791
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 1: One is being so dainty and being like I can

792
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,720
Speaker 1: only have one and one slice that I first pat

793
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: down with a napkin and then have a third of

794
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,320
Speaker 1: it and then be like I don't eat the crust.

795
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,360
Speaker 1: So that's one option. And then the other option, of course,

796
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,240
Speaker 1: is to be ironically pizza girl and be like, oh literally,

797
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: body by pizza, Like all I do is eat pizza.

798
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,440
Speaker 1: I'm crazy because I eat pizza, and so that's me,

799
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 1: I think. Yeah, So basically a pizza the environment of

800
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 1: a pizza place is one where being a normal woman

801
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,399
Speaker 1: is criminalized because you have to choose one or the other.

802
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you for saying that, George. God, I mean

803
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 3: that was just so well articated. The experience is finally

804
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 3: finally being air to the masses.

805
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 5: But no, that's the thing, because I in my head, I.

806
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,280
Speaker 3: Would be like, is that fucking bitch blotting the oil?

807
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 3: After pizza? That's the best part.

808
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 5: You know.

809
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:19,719
Speaker 3: But then you see these guys and they're going buck wild,

810
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 3: just living free, They're just being free. They they don't

811
00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 3: they don't have a care in the world. Meanwhile, you know,

812
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 3: I'm well into my thirties just secretly eating it in

813
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:29,800
Speaker 3: the dark, you know.

814
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 2: I mean it wasn't until I, you know, became in

815
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 2: gay circles that I started to feel shame around pizza.

816
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 1: Interesting.

817
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like as a as a youth, it

818
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 2: was sort of like I remember eating just being like

819
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,000
Speaker 2: how much can I eat? Like it was almost a challenge,

820
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 2: Like I feel like between like brothers and cousins, it

821
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:50,360
Speaker 2: would be like I'm going to eat more than you, yeah, like,

822
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 2: and that's going to be a point of pride.

823
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,600
Speaker 3: And yeah, there was no shame in this sort of

824
00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 3: grotesque nature of it all. Just the the amount of consumption,

825
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:08,560
Speaker 3: the ferocity that these men or teenage men went at it,

826
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 3: and I felt really kind of on the outside of that.

827
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 1: Well, there is a very real way in which pizza

828
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 1: has and I'm not saying this with judgment, has no

829
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,839
Speaker 1: nutritional value. Like even even compared to like other junk

830
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 1: food like a burger, you can at least be like

831
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:26,600
Speaker 1: that's a source of protein. But pizza genuinely has no

832
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 1: nutritional value and is only bad for you. And so

833
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,279
Speaker 1: then we think about this, so then that what that

834
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: causes is like men, because of their privilege to do

835
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,359
Speaker 1: whatever they want, can really it's like a bacchanalia of

836
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:43,799
Speaker 1: just like rubbing pizza on their like cock and bulks,

837
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:49,720
Speaker 1: and then and then women having to be like worried

838
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,439
Speaker 1: that they are eating something that is destroying them from

839
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 1: the inside because they are taught to respect their bodies

840
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 1: in some in some way. And so it's a real

841
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 1: it really like it shows you who everyone is.

842
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:11,720
Speaker 3: Basically m yes, and points to you know, men's allowance

843
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,800
Speaker 3: to just be completely unbridled exactly exactly.

844
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:19,239
Speaker 1: It's like again, in a pizza environment, a men is

845
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 1: literally carefree and a woman has never been more self conscious,

846
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:24,800
Speaker 1: and that is what pizza brings out in each of

847
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:31,319
Speaker 1: the genders. Yeah.

848
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,239
Speaker 2: The thing you said about like the girls who are

849
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:37,400
Speaker 2: like chill about pizza, that's a scary pizza as a

850
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:41,920
Speaker 2: signifier of like being chill and relaxed really freaks me out.

851
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,520
Speaker 1: I think, especially.

852
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 2: When it comes to like like there he was that

853
00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:48,280
Speaker 2: thing for a while where like gay guys would pose

854
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 2: with a piece of pizza and like be shirtless and

855
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 2: it would be like cool, right, and it was like

856
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:55,399
Speaker 2: this is.

857
00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 5: Wild and it's like, we know you didn't eat that. Yeah,

858
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,160
Speaker 5: this is like this is what it's like.

859
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 3: Also, those like ninety pound hotel influencers Okay, hey, and

860
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:06,399
Speaker 3: then you know, I know you.

861
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,960
Speaker 2: Through that in the trash after Yeah, And there's something

862
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,160
Speaker 2: where I'm like, why are we doing this? Why is

863
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:16,640
Speaker 2: does pizza have so much like soft power in our culture?

864
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,840
Speaker 1: Why? I do think, I have to say, I genuinely

865
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 1: do think it goes back to, even subconsciously, the fact

866
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 1: that it has no nutritional value, like there's something about it.

867
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 1: It's such a blank canvas, right.

868
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 3: Well. I also think, and I know from college, I

869
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 3: think of it as just like all these rugby players

870
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 3: coming in for their pints you know that they're clinking

871
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:43,439
Speaker 3: and slashing and talking about date rape, you know, And

872
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 3: that's sort of what I associate it with, not some

873
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,359
Speaker 3: elegant Italian like a pizza place.

874
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:53,880
Speaker 5: I'm talking. I'm talking the burly pizza places, you know.

875
00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 1: I also think that, you know, it's never ever.

876
00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 2: I remember watching media and being like and being like

877
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 2: seventeen and being like, I can't wait till I can

878
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 2: drink because beer and pizza is just a combination that

879
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:11,920
Speaker 2: is like better than anything on earth. And everyone's like

880
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 2: beers and pizza, beers. I brought the beers, Who's getting

881
00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:17,959
Speaker 2: the pizza? And then I grew up and like could

882
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 2: drink and eat pizza at the same time. And I

883
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:22,839
Speaker 2: was like, that's actually a horrible combination. I have one

884
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 2: piece of pizza and a half a beer, and I'm like, ow,

885
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 2: I'm like so bloated. It doesn't work for me.

886
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is just truly a bloat machine. You're not

887
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,720
Speaker 3: getting that blowed down for three to four business days.

888
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 2: Yes, I can have the pizza and water, Yeah, and

889
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 2: then maybe drink like exclusively vodka shots from then on.

890
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:48,840
Speaker 1: No, you have to do you have to do burgers

891
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:52,480
Speaker 1: with beer. Pizza with red one. That is the correct

892
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 1: way to pair this food. Wow, I didn't know there

893
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 1: was a correct way. Well, it's a sauce.

894
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:07,319
Speaker 3: And I think we'd be remiss remiss to bring up

895
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:11,320
Speaker 3: if we want to get real crazy about these places

896
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 3: that are doing stuffed cruss and they're doing some really

897
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 3: wild and crazy guy things over there, you know, and

898
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 3: that is I think that's very straight those things.

899
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 1: Messing with a pizza like that is actually reminiscent of

900
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 1: like fraternity hazing, like it is. Yes, there is there

901
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:34,640
Speaker 1: is a way I would say, like messing with the

902
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:39,239
Speaker 1: build of a pizza is something that like you have

903
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 1: to be in Sigma Kai to have that inspiration to

904
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:42,400
Speaker 1: do that.

905
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 2: See, messing with the build of a pizza to me

906
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,319
Speaker 2: is like one of the most Midwestern coded things you

907
00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:48,680
Speaker 2: can do.

908
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:49,240
Speaker 1: That's true.

909
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:53,440
Speaker 2: To me, it's like you have lost like the there's

910
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,759
Speaker 2: like too many steps where you've you don't see that

911
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:58,880
Speaker 2: pizza comes from Italy anymore.

912
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 1: You're like, pizza is from Ohio.

913
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:03,240
Speaker 5: Oh, they've never even heard of Italy.

914
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:08,239
Speaker 3: Italy is some far off fantasy from the past. It

915
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 3: is so far it is such a not even related because.

916
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 2: Like people when I lived in the Midwest. That's when

917
00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:17,720
Speaker 2: like I was going buck wild with like stuffed crust,

918
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:23,840
Speaker 2: twisted like breadsticks, crust like TiO pizza, garlic, Yeah, not crust,

919
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 2: And I was like, this is normal and even good.

920
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:28,160
Speaker 2: I remember me like, this is pizza.

921
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:28,960
Speaker 1: Well here's the thing.

922
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:30,560
Speaker 2: That wasn't until I moved back to New York that

923
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 2: I was like, oh wow, actually there's a culture.

924
00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,359
Speaker 1: Shit, yeah, I feel this way with Okay, So all

925
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 1: of the messing with the build of a pizza, messing

926
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 1: with the bloody marry and putting too many things on it,

927
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,319
Speaker 1: messing with a burger and having like you know, an

928
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:47,680
Speaker 1: entire chicken with bone like in between the buns, there's

929
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:52,040
Speaker 1: something about it where you're like, it seems so okay,

930
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:56,799
Speaker 1: bear with me. It seems so adventurous, and yet at

931
00:47:56,840 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 1: its core you are limiting yourself to this are arbitrary canvas.

932
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,000
Speaker 1: Like if you want to be adventurous, why does it

933
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 1: still have to be a pizza. Just make a new

934
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,320
Speaker 1: kind of food, Like if you want to add different

935
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 1: flavors and add different textures, just make a different food

936
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 1: and it'll be better than if you still are so

937
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 1: stuck on this idea of a pizza.

938
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:16,480
Speaker 5: Yeah.

939
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:18,960
Speaker 3: And I say all of this to say as someone

940
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:24,240
Speaker 3: who would just love to absolutely smash a large pizza

941
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,960
Speaker 3: and a huge pint of beer right now and just

942
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:31,080
Speaker 3: have to be rolled out of here in a wheelbarrow,

943
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,320
Speaker 3: you know, But I do see, I don't know, there's

944
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 3: something sort of aggressive, Like there's something I just when

945
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:42,319
Speaker 3: I think of it, it's like a man's bedroom with

946
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 3: gatorade bottles full of piss.

947
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:47,799
Speaker 1: Yes, well yes, And that actually also I think is

948
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:54,800
Speaker 1: related to the simplicity of pizza as a group dinner food.

949
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:58,359
Speaker 1: Like there's something where no one has to order individually.

950
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:03,440
Speaker 1: There's no buffet, there's no like splitting. It is very simple.

951
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,799
Speaker 1: It's pre cut, like it's for babies, like it is right,

952
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,239
Speaker 1: it's like a group of imagine a group of men,

953
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 1: and it's like if one thing goes wrong, one of

954
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 1: them would start like either crying or literally take a

955
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 1: gun out and shoot someone. So you're like, well, we

956
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:17,840
Speaker 1: have to make this as frictionless as possible so that

957
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:20,360
Speaker 1: they don't get upset. Just bring a bunch of pizzas,

958
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:24,080
Speaker 1: one pepperoni, one cheese, one veggie, and cut them into

959
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: little slices. And then they'll be okay.

960
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:28,920
Speaker 5: Right, I agree, I agree completely.

961
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 3: Wow, And I feel like there's something also about, like

962
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 3: at least on the West Coast, like really that there's like,

963
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 3: you know, snowboard groups of like snowboarders at the pizza places,

964
00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 3: these like male snowboarders.

965
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 2: Well, La, I'm curious you're educated in this back to

966
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 2: elly culture or back deli culture, which is what the

967
00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:54,720
Speaker 2: season is going to be all about.

968
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:55,959
Speaker 1: There's no escaping.

969
00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:58,480
Speaker 2: You have to address this right in front of you.

970
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:04,160
Speaker 2: They are trying to get into pizza here. Okay, I

971
00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:05,160
Speaker 2: would argue, you.

972
00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:06,480
Speaker 5: Mean La as a city.

973
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:10,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've been trying it for decades. I have to say,

974
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:12,520
Speaker 1: if I hear one more person being like, have you

975
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 1: been to Pizza Moza, I'm like, yeah, I have.

976
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:20,240
Speaker 5: Nancy Silverton is yeah Mozza.

977
00:50:20,800 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 2: They're like but it's like but there's a central like

978
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,359
Speaker 2: internal debate I feel like where they're like, no one

979
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:31,840
Speaker 2: here actually wants to eat pizza, but they want pizza

980
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 2: to be around, like they want only as a signifier.

981
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,440
Speaker 5: Right, they want to steal that from New York City.

982
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:45,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like workware or something. It's Carhart Pizza, pizzas

983
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:46,280
Speaker 2: food car Hard.

984
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 1: Pizza is food. Car Hard, You're so right. Tacos, by

985
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,080
Speaker 1: the way, like pizza tacos.

986
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:58,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, I love a taco.

987
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:00,879
Speaker 2: Well, so I guess I under Do you think it's

988
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 2: actually possible for LA to get into pizza?

989
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 3: Well, you know, that's an incredible question you've raised. And

990
00:51:11,360 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 3: I think that there are New York City transplants that

991
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:18,640
Speaker 3: come here and they say, I want to have a family,

992
00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,360
Speaker 3: all right, I like a tree. I'd like a tree

993
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:23,680
Speaker 3: near me. I'd like to experience a piece, even one

994
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:27,200
Speaker 3: piece of greenery, a shrub. And they say, I'm gonna

995
00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 3: pack up my little pizza parlor from Ludlow.

996
00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:32,400
Speaker 5: Maybe.

997
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:34,760
Speaker 1: Shop on Ludlow.

998
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:44,520
Speaker 5: From from the Morgan stop there we go from grown

999
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:46,200
Speaker 5: Hes and I'm gonna.

1000
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 3: Take my wares all through the Oregon Trail down to

1001
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,160
Speaker 3: Los Angeles and I'm gonna open up a little mom

1002
00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:56,480
Speaker 3: and pop shop and it's gonna be the first time

1003
00:51:56,480 --> 00:51:59,279
Speaker 3: they're ever experiencing it real pizza, you know. And I

1004
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 3: think that's gonna But I think that's happening here and there,

1005
00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:04,359
Speaker 3: a little bit a little trickle trickle down economics.

1006
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,040
Speaker 5: I ever heard of it again?

1007
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:09,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I think it's gonna happen, but you know,

1008
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,239
Speaker 3: it always be minimal. It's it's it's not a New

1009
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 3: York it's it's not a pizza destination, and no one

1010
00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:16,040
Speaker 3: needs to lie about it.

1011
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:18,680
Speaker 1: But I think it's a different We at some point

1012
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:21,360
Speaker 1: we need to nip nip La via New York Pizza

1013
00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:23,920
Speaker 1: in the bud. But while we're on the topic, I

1014
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 1: will say.

1015
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:29,640
Speaker 2: Today we can have two episodes we talked about.

1016
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 1: I think La Pizza is like you just have to

1017
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 1: be in the mood. I love like a prissy fancy

1018
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:40,560
Speaker 1: whatever like brick Oven like would whatever of it. It's

1019
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:44,000
Speaker 1: called pizza from La like I love a pizza Moza pizza.

1020
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 1: You just have to understand that it's not you're not

1021
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:47,880
Speaker 1: getting New York pizza by the slaves. It's something different.

1022
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:52,480
Speaker 1: I'm I'm actually kind of all in, and I almost

1023
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:56,680
Speaker 1: think because they're not attempting to emulate the East Coast thing,

1024
00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:59,320
Speaker 1: I have to respect it.

1025
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1026
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:03,560
Speaker 3: Well, pizza is like French fries and Mexican food. Even

1027
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:05,040
Speaker 3: when it's bad, it's still done.

1028
00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 2: Yes, sure, sure, yeah, Wow, you know it's just it's George.

1029
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,000
Speaker 1: You would handle my situation so much better than I'm

1030
00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:15,560
Speaker 1: handling it.

1031
00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:19,080
Speaker 5: Sam, what have you been eating since you've lived here?

1032
00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,400

00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:31,879

00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:34,120
Speaker 2: Well in the place in this day is like kind

Speaker 2: I've been to two restaurants since I've been there.

1042
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 1: It is so crazy, considering we are so close, how

1043
00:53:51,880 --> 00:53:53,160

1048
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 1: in Sam's shoes, I would have already been in credit

1049
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,839
Speaker 1: card debt from the number of restaurants I have gone

1050
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:10,320
Speaker 1: to because in my mind, I'm like, well, I have

1051
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 1: a paycheck, I can go to restaurants, and I'm going

1052
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 1: to go to every single Los Angeles restaurant I've been

1053
00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:16,240
Speaker 1: wanting to shoe for the past like seven years.

00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:20,719
Speaker 2: where I'm sure.

1057
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:22,680
Speaker 5: Because it's truly my obsession.

1058
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:26,120
Speaker 3: Is what I mentioned TikTok, like my only interest really

1059
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 3: in life, it is what you to.

1060
00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:30,400
Speaker 1: Eat, because Sam, it is what we think about every

1061
00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 1: second of every day.

1062
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:32,279
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1063
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like go to restaurants. Like when I'm like

1064
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:35,759
Speaker 2: I want to hang out with someone, I'll be like,

1065
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:37,400
Speaker 2: where should we go to dinner? And that's how I

1066
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,399
Speaker 2: go to a restaurant, right, And then they just pick

1067
00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:41,600
Speaker 2: a place right, and that's it.

1068
00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:43,319
Speaker 1: Well, I do think I'm sorry to say this is

1069
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:46,239
Speaker 1: a little bit you being baby tyrant.

1070
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:47,440
Speaker 2: I'm baby tyrant.

1071
00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:49,719

1072
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 1: like pick a place. Your your task is to pick

1073
00:54:52,600 --> 00:54:56,400
Speaker 1: a place right. Well, they live here, they know.

1074
00:54:56,640 --> 00:55:04,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's their business. Honestly, it's their business. Yeah.

1075
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:08,000
Speaker 2: So I'll go to Pizza Moza or is that still open?

1076
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:09,839
Speaker 1: Blair? Is that still cool? I mean I went there

1077
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:11,560
Speaker 1: like a decade ago. I feel like it was such

1078
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 1: the big thing for a while.

1079
00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:15,280
Speaker 5: No, it's still really popular, Okay.

1080
00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 1: Cool cool, cool? Yeah, the groundbreaking Well report back. Their

1081
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:22,360
Speaker 1: famous thing is one of the pizzas they crack an

1082
00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:24,360
Speaker 1: egg on top of it while it's still hot or something.

1083
00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:26,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, they do that with some of their apostas too.

1084
00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:29,360
Speaker 3: It's pretty thrilling. Honestly, it was shocked when it was

1085
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:35,880
Speaker 3: happening in the moment, but after when the shock subsided,

1086
00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:39,600
Speaker 3: I had been introduced to something new that I found

1087
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:43,640
Speaker 3: quite pleasant. But yeah, you know, you don't often see

1088
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:46,400
Speaker 3: the egg just outright naked like that coming on you

1089
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:47,319
Speaker 3: fo you know.

00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:50,200
Speaker 2: So yeah, no, I actually do like that. That sounds

1091
00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:53,800
Speaker 2: kind of fun. Yeah, I'm not opposed to a showy

1092
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:55,799
Speaker 2: little restaurant that does a little dance for you at

1093
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:56,200
Speaker 2: the table.

1094
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:59,600

00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,840
Speaker 3: Go on one week to you know, find a boyfriend.

00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:32,360
Speaker 3: Because but it would be more fun with a friend.

1107
00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:35,440
Speaker 1: And I'm sure the guys would really appreciate that. If

1108
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:37,560
Speaker 1: you brought a gay guy with you, I.

1109
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:40,280
Speaker 5: Think they would too, and they'd be so lucky. Yeah,

1110
00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:40,680
Speaker 5: you know.

1111
00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:42,560
Speaker 1: A chill gi guy, A chill gay guy.

1112
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:44,480
Speaker 2: They'd be like, oh my god, I never met a

1113
00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:45,480
Speaker 2: chill gig guy.

1114
00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:47,800
Speaker 5: That's what they would say. Definitely.

1115
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:55,919
Speaker 1: Any final thoughts on pizza places as a straight topic.

1116
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,359
Speaker 5: I don't know. I have to speak candid with you

1117
00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:00,560
Speaker 5: guys if I can. I don't know. Did I make

1118
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:01,359
Speaker 5: it straight enough?

1119
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:01,880
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1120
00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 1: Oh, I think we'd be pretty straight.

1121
00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:06,879
Speaker 2: Got I'm trying to think, like, is there's anything more

1122
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 2: about the restaurant itself rather than the food of pizza. Yes,

1123
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:12,439
Speaker 2: I mean there's the decor, the like red and white

1124
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 2: checker thing.

1125
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,040
Speaker 3: That's generous because a lot of them are not even

1126
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:20,000
Speaker 3: doing the red and white check which I think is

1127
00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:22,960
Speaker 3: you know, a nod to the past, of to the

1128
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:26,320
Speaker 3: origins the culture, and you don't see that very often.

1129
00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:29,800
Speaker 1: True the people are forgetting I would say. The more

1130
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:32,680
Speaker 1: I would say, the more a pizza place nods to Italy,

1131
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:37,600
Speaker 1: the gayer it is, yes and nods to Italy, the

1132
00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 1: straighter it is.

1133
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,200
Speaker 3: And I would also say the more it has French

1134
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,400
Speaker 3: fries on the menu, the straighter it is.

1135
00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:48,480
Speaker 2: Well, of course, yeah, yeah, wow.

1136
00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:51,000
Speaker 1: And the more it has Harncini, the gayer it is,

1137
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:54,240
Speaker 1: because then you're then they're really trying to do something.

1138
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:59,200
Speaker 3: Right, and they're you know, they're showing sort of giving nature. There, yes,

1139
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 3: some sort of generosity with our chini. And when you

1140
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 3: just see the French fries, you're saying, oh, no, I

1141
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:11,720
Speaker 3: know what, I know what your drastic just intentional simplicity

1142
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:12,800
Speaker 3: is here, you know.

1143
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:18,200
Speaker 2: Okay, I have a question. Rank from Gata straight, Papa John's, Domino's,

1144
00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 2: Pizza Hut.

1145
00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:24,440
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I would say Papa John's straightest.

1146
00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:30,760
Speaker 5: I've never had any. I think that makes probably it

1147
00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:31,440
Speaker 5: the straightest.

1148
00:58:31,520 --> 00:58:34,120
Speaker 2: Right, it's a sweeter sauce, but it's very Republican.

1149
00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:37,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, And then I would say Pizza Hut in the middle,

1150
00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:42,040
Speaker 1: and then Domino's is gayest to me? Yeah, Dominos is

1151
00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: gayest to you.

1152
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:46,440
Speaker 3: But I do also feel like all the all the

1153
00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 3: men I know order Dominoes, but you know they're also

1154
00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:52,560
Speaker 3: those three are the straightest pizza prices you could have.

1155
00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 2: I actually think Pizza might Pizza Hut might be the gayest.

1156
00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:55,919
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1157
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 2: I feel like they take the biggest swings and also

1158
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:00,600
Speaker 2: have a little more kitsch.

1159
00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 5: They're the most niche of the three.

1160
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:10,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. Interesting, and plus they have the dessert pizzas pizza

1161
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:12,440
Speaker 2: Hu what I actually want to know?

1162
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:17,560
Speaker 3: Okay, you're turning straight, turning straight in l a A story.

1163
00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:20,000
Speaker 2: I love La Pizza. Have you tried Pizza Hot?

1164
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,600
Speaker 1: You should go to Pizza Mozza and be like, do

1165
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:26,080
Speaker 1: you guys have dessert pizza like pizza?

1166
00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:28,120
Speaker 5: Do you have stuff cuss.

1167
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:32,840
Speaker 2: Stuff crust, apple, cinnamon dessert pizza?

1168
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:36,680
Speaker 1: Wait? What about to borrow?

1169
00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,000
Speaker 5: Borrow straight as Hot?

1170
00:59:38,080 --> 00:59:42,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what tomorrow is like, I'm trying to.

1171
00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:46,240
Speaker 1: Think of New York City Cop Yes, and also and

1172
00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:48,880
Speaker 1: mall and airport and food court.

1173
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:52,280
Speaker 2: There was a promise Brow had to promise that they

1174
00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:55,160
Speaker 2: didn't like live I agree Sam where they were like,

1175
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:58,320
Speaker 2: we're going to be the first real New York pizza

1176
00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 2: chain and then it was like and then it just

1177
01:00:00,920 --> 01:00:04,280
Speaker 2: became airport cop hangout and it was like, wait, this

1178
01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:05,720
Speaker 2: wasn't what you promised you would be.

1179
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, I'm trying to think.

1180
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:10,800
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of what else?

1181
01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, Like what Else is.

1182
01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:14,240
Speaker 2: Almost like like Whole Foods in the way that Whole

1183
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,400
Speaker 2: Foods used to be like this prestigious thing and now

1184
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:16,880
Speaker 2: it's Amazon.

1185
01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:19,080
Speaker 1: Now it's like Amazon. Yeah, and it's like hated.

1186
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:24,800
Speaker 3: But yeah, something that I tragically didn't think of till now.

1187
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,680
Speaker 5: It's a very culmination of this episode.

1188
01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:34,520
Speaker 3: The chicken wings at these pizza places, and that is

1189
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 3: a huge, huge part of straight culture, and when they're

1190
01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:43,640
Speaker 3: prominently featured, you know, you know, you're not saying you're

1191
01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:48,880
Speaker 3: not saying anything, You're not saying an artist anywhere anywhere

1192
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:49,800
Speaker 3: near the premises.

1193
01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:54,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. I actually in a way that sometimes sometimes I'm

1194
01:00:54,800 --> 01:00:56,959
Speaker 2: jealous of. You know, you see those people that don't

1195
01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:59,000
Speaker 2: check in with their feelings and that you just know

1196
01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 2: they're happier. Yeah, and I'm like, damn, I'm I even

1197
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:07,240
Speaker 2: remember as a child looking at families that would order

1198
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 2: chicken wings with pizza and be like I really felt

1199
01:01:10,280 --> 01:01:11,680
Speaker 2: like I was on the outside looking in, Like I

1200
01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:13,600
Speaker 2: was like, I will never be a part of that family.

1201
01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:16,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they must have it all. Yeah.

1202
01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:19,720
Speaker 3: I wish I could know peace like that. Yeah, Yeah, definitely.

1203
01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:27,400
Speaker 1: I do have a final, a personal final thought, which

1204
01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:32,520
Speaker 1: is the competitive nature almost of pizza eating at these

1205
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:35,840
Speaker 1: pizza places, because when the pizza comes out, you almost

1206
01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:38,840
Speaker 1: want to think this is actually so democratic. There's all

1207
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,360
Speaker 1: these slices, they are, you know, approximately the same size,

1208
01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:44,920
Speaker 1: and all of us have equal opportunity as Americans to

1209
01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:48,400
Speaker 1: have as many slices as we want until it's over.

1210
01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:51,600
Speaker 1: But in practice, the people that win are the ones

1211
01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:54,640
Speaker 1: who eat the fastest and the ones who care less about,

1212
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:59,200
Speaker 1: you know, their fellow man. So they are eating faster,

1213
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:03,360
Speaker 1: they're getting the lar your pieces, they're getting the flavors

1214
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:05,760
Speaker 1: that are most popular. Like let's say there's only one

1215
01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 1: pepperoni left, They're going to get that one pepperoni. So

1216
01:02:08,440 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 1: there's something almost dog eat dog about it capitalists, which

1217
01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:20,080
Speaker 1: actually does is not the case for most meals. Like

1218
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:22,840
Speaker 1: if you go out and order a pasta apasta and

1219
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:27,040
Speaker 1: it's yours, you know you don't have to.

1220
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 3: Actually just distilled my entire childhood thing for me because

1221
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:35,680
Speaker 3: I grew up with all the brothers and now it

1222
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,560
Speaker 3: just I can see crystal clear from a mile away

1223
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:41,440
Speaker 3: why I have to eat my entire large pizza once

1224
01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:44,320
Speaker 3: a month in the quiet of my own home, because

1225
01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:48,640
Speaker 3: I felt, you know, they'd eat the pizza so fast that.

1226
01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:50,760
Speaker 5: I had to fight for my two slices.

1227
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:54,760
Speaker 2: You know, the scarcity mindset when it comes to pizza

1228
01:02:55,000 --> 01:03:01,240
Speaker 2: is an epidemic. Anytime in school, any sleepover, it was like,

1229
01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:02,600
Speaker 2: I'm a Souser's pizza.

1230
01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:06,200
Speaker 1: I'm supposed to feel joy. I feel fear and you know, yeah,

1231
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:06,840
Speaker 1: I feel.

1232
01:03:06,600 --> 01:03:09,480
Speaker 3: Like I'm at the beginning of the track, at the

1233
01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:14,000
Speaker 3: track on those little tiles, ready to push off fast enough.

1234
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know what, Okay, the pizza is unevenly divided.

1235
01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:19,880
Speaker 1: You know what else is unevenly divided, the joy and

1236
01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 1: the fun that is the promise of a pizza party,

1237
01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:29,120
Speaker 1: because guess who's having more fun and really embodying the careless,

1238
01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:31,840
Speaker 1: the care free nature of a pizza party. The person

1239
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:36,600
Speaker 1: who effortlessly is the fastest and biggest eater, like they're

1240
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:40,240
Speaker 1: never worried. They're never worried there's not going to be enough,

1241
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,480
Speaker 1: whereas the person who's the beta as soon as the

1242
01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:44,720
Speaker 1: pizza comes out, is in a panic.

1243
01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:51,640
Speaker 3: Right, It's really a predator situation, yes, apex predator.

1244
01:03:55,120 --> 01:04:09,280
Speaker 2: Well, yes, delivery there was really iconic. Well, yes, should

1245
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:11,080
Speaker 2: we do our final segment?

1246
01:04:11,360 --> 01:04:15,000
Speaker 1: I think I would be open to that, mostly because

1247
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:17,960
Speaker 1: I am ordering a pizza as soon as we leave

1248
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:18,439
Speaker 1: this call.

1249
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:21,840
Speaker 5: I think I need to too, although yeah.

1250
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:25,120
Speaker 1: But I can't because I'm I'm going to Sam's boyfriend's birthday,

1251
01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:29,480
Speaker 1: believe it or not without Sam. Yeah, And so I think,

1252
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,080
Speaker 1: because I need to get there sooner rather than later,

1253
01:04:32,120 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 1: I might have to order Mazzrelli sticks.

1254
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:38,640
Speaker 2: You can get some chicken tend to get over there.

1255
01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:39,680
Speaker 1: I think It's what I'm gonna.

1256
01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:43,640
Speaker 2: Do, Okay, Blair Wall. Our final segment is called shout Outs,

1257
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:45,600
Speaker 2: and in this segment we pay homage to the grand

1258
01:04:45,600 --> 01:04:48,200
Speaker 2: straight tradition of the radio shout out by giving a

1259
01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:52,120
Speaker 2: shout out to anything that we enjoy. So imagine it's

1260
01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:54,280
Speaker 2: TRL in two thousand and one and you're shouting out

1261
01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:56,480
Speaker 2: to your squad back home, but about anything that you

1262
01:04:56,680 --> 01:05:01,240
Speaker 2: like at all people places, things ideas. George, do you

1263
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:02,200
Speaker 2: have one?

1264
01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:04,520
Speaker 1: Yes, I've actually been thinking about mine all week, and

1265
01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:07,600
Speaker 1: I'll go, what's up, freaks and losers? I want to

1266
01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:10,320
Speaker 1: give a shout out to the animated film Millennial Hunter,

1267
01:05:10,480 --> 01:05:13,520
Speaker 1: written by Sam Taggert, a film that came out during

1268
01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 1: the strikes, and I think maybe has never been promoted

1269
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:19,280
Speaker 1: on this very podcast, co hosted by its creator and

1270
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:22,480
Speaker 1: writer and star Sam Taggert. So if anyone has been

1271
01:05:22,480 --> 01:05:24,520
Speaker 1: listening to this pot has this whole time and has

1272
01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:27,400
Speaker 1: literally no idea that within the last few months, Sam

1273
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:30,960
Speaker 1: wrote a film that was then in fact released on streaming.

1274
01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 1: Now's your chance to go on to be and watch

1275
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:37,560
Speaker 1: it for free and then and then rate it on

1276
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:40,400
Speaker 1: Letterbox like I did. And then I got my year

1277
01:05:40,440 --> 01:05:42,480
Speaker 1: interview on Letterbox that that my top two movies were

1278
01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:46,000
Speaker 1: Oppenheimer and Millennial Hunter. And guess what, sweetheart, I stand

1279
01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:49,160
Speaker 1: by that. So go out there watch a Millennial Hunter

1280
01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:54,400
Speaker 1: and support queer creators of all stripes. Woo woo wow.

1281
01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:57,840
Speaker 2: George, thank you so much. You know, that was thank

1282
01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:00,360
Speaker 2: you for saying that, because it did come out during

1283
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:02,000
Speaker 2: the strikes, and it was that thing where it was

1284
01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:04,280
Speaker 2: like I actually technically was allowed to talk about it,

1285
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:06,760
Speaker 2: you know, but I felt like I wasn't supposed to,

1286
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:09,600
Speaker 2: so I was sort of like, I'm just gonna not

1287
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:11,800
Speaker 2: say anything, and so I did this sort of iconic

1288
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:17,280
Speaker 2: half non promotion and it was very clunky. So I

1289
01:06:17,320 --> 01:06:20,320
Speaker 2: have to second George's thought, and I actually wrote an

1290
01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:25,480
Speaker 2: animated movie and it's out and you can actually watch it.

1291
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:27,920
Speaker 3: I'm going to watch it. I am excited to watch it.

1292
01:06:27,960 --> 01:06:30,680
Speaker 3: If you think I won't fucking download to be to

1293
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:32,959
Speaker 3: watch your movie.

1294
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:33,920
Speaker 5: You're out of your mind.

1295
01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:37,480
Speaker 2: Wow, thank you. Yeah. Okay, well then I have to

1296
01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:41,320
Speaker 2: do a shout out. Now, let me think for one second.

1297
01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:47,640
Speaker 2: Let me think for one second. Okay, what is up

1298
01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:51,920
Speaker 2: everyone around the globe from sea to shining sea. I

1299
01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:54,480
Speaker 2: want to give a huge shout out to that feeling

1300
01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:58,160
Speaker 2: when you're not sick anymore, right after being sick. That

1301
01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:01,360
Speaker 2: is an amazing feeling, because when you're sick, you're like,

1302
01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:04,439
Speaker 2: I guess I'm just gonna fucking die. I guess I'll

1303
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:07,160
Speaker 2: be miserable for the rest of my life. And then

1304
01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:10,040
Speaker 2: when you're not sick, you're like, I have more strength

1305
01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:13,760
Speaker 2: than any person on earth. Put me in a pizza place.

1306
01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:17,360
Speaker 2: I'm the alpha male. Now I've was sick and now

1307
01:07:17,400 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 2: I am not. And I think I have a new

1308
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:22,720
Speaker 2: lease on life. I have a new lease on Los Angeles,

1309
01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:28,400
Speaker 2: my home, against my will, and I am so excited to,

1310
01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:33,680
Speaker 2: you know, attack every restaurant in this city with my

1311
01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:38,680
Speaker 2: whole pussy, which is heart, Oh's heart.

1312
01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 1: Wow.

1313
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:42,840
Speaker 2: So shout out to not being sick anymore.

1314
01:07:43,400 --> 01:07:44,560
Speaker 1: I'm strong as a bowl.

1315
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:45,800
Speaker 2: Xoxo Sam.

1316
01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:50,720
Speaker 3: Oh wow, I just love to see the passion. That's

1317
01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:57,320
Speaker 3: so good, Okay, God can I I probably would want

1318
01:07:57,400 --> 01:08:00,880
Speaker 3: to do Stradio Labs because of Proud Ada. Time of

1319
01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:06,080
Speaker 3: my life, I have been. I've been, I've been cultured,

1320
01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:07,120
Speaker 3: I've been educated.

1321
01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:11,000
Speaker 5: I've had a laugh. Boy, have I had a laugh?

Speaker 5: I love I love hearing all about it. And then

1329
01:08:36,479 --> 01:08:39,080
