1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:05,240 Speaker 1: Look man, oh, I see you? Why and look over there? 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 1: How is that culture? Yes? Goodness? Du bleased us calling? 3 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 1: Tell everyone what you're absolutely wrapped in right now? So 4 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: and did a screenshot of this what is it? Tell them? 5 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: I'm wearing the folklore cardigan that's been hanging in my 6 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: closet for at least when did it come out? July? 7 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: But it's but then I got but then everyone was 8 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: ordering the card again, so I got it I think 9 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: in like end of August. So it's been in my 10 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,240 Speaker 1: closet for like two and a half months. It's since September, 11 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: and today I felt like the great day to break 12 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 1: it out. It really is. I mean we are in December, 13 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,639 Speaker 1: um and as sort of as we've been undone, you're 14 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: sort of like wrapping yourself back up, you know what 15 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,160 Speaker 1: I mean? Um? And so this is very seasonal and 16 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: I think mine just just came and it went to 17 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: my parents house on accident. But I have my cardigans 18 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: did arrive. I wish I could join you, but it's 19 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,319 Speaker 1: not in the state of California. That's a tragedy. It's 20 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: really tragic. It's tragical. It's tragical. It's not that comfortable. 21 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,839 Speaker 1: I'll say, maybe it's because my skin is not reacting 22 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: well with there. I don't know what what what the 23 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: material is, can I Darling? I don't think the problem 24 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: is your skin. I think the problem is, you know, 25 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: really mass marketing and the fact that I don't think 26 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: a lot of care went into that. I really don't. 27 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 1: You want to take that back? Because Taylor Swift herself 28 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: designed this is the story. Did she sort of created 29 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: herself or did you who? I want to know whose 30 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: hands went into making it, whose labor really wasn't She 31 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: had a gray colored pencil, a black colored pencil, and 32 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 1: then she sketched out a schema or as schema something. 33 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 1: She sketched out something and then you could say anything 34 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: and I'd be like, yeah, her team was like, yeah, 35 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: let's do it. So And do you think she was 36 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: inspired by the two different colored pencils. Yeah, I think 37 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: it was like a Coco Chanelle thing, you know Chanel. 38 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: It's like it's like mostly black and white. Because she 39 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: was she was in an orphanage or anunnery or whatever, 40 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: and so she was known for her austerity. I think 41 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: I think Taylor was inspired by that. You know, so 42 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 1: um with that all being said, it's not very warm. No, 43 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: it's warm, it's just not comfortable because on my skin 44 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: it's it's an it's irritating. I have to tell you. 45 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,119 Speaker 1: It looks really good. I don't know about that either. 46 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: I'm not a cardigan person. I never was. I just 47 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: I thought it'd be funny for me to wear this because, um, 48 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: I think it's lesbian culture. And I'm happy you brought 49 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: up lesbian culture. Well before we talk about the the 50 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: lesbian culture, I think I let's just catch up on 51 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: cultural stuff this. There's so much and it reminded me 52 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: that I want to say a disclaimer before you get 53 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: into this. I want to say a disclaimer for the 54 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: pod going forward, If an episode of television or film 55 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: has come out, here we go by the time this 56 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: episode of Last Cultures gets released, and going forward, if 57 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: any episode of Last Culture gets released and media that 58 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: is discussed has been released and it's been out for 59 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: more than a day and you have time to consume it, 60 00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: this is a spoiler area. Okay, So what we're gonna 61 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: end up talking about is the undoing. You know we're 62 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: gonna be talking about undoing. Our guests, as excited as 63 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: I knew she was our guests is a big consumer 64 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: of the culture. Yes, and I just want to say 65 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: we're gonna be discussing this and other things on the show, 66 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: such as you wouldn't believe what I'm watching. I'm watching 67 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: a Teacher on Hulu with Kate Mara and Love Simon. 68 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: I'm watching Staved by the Bell. I watched Olive Stayed 69 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: by the Bell. I'm on my second viewing. It's my 70 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: favorite thing. But primarily the undoing has been fully undone, 71 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: and we gotta, we gotta. I'll talk about it together. 72 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: I think we'll talk about together. Um, but let's you 73 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: and I talk about the flight attendant, which I'm loving. 74 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: I am loving the flight attendant. I think it is 75 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: what I would call goole f. It's what I would 76 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: call gooffy. It's goofy um. And how do you spell that? 77 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: G o O P g e o o P. And 78 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: you think it's gonna stop at goop, but then you'd 79 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: be thrown hut there and honey, it goes g o 80 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: o P h y. Oh my gooffy. You know. I 81 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: read someone someone I think it was like a Holly 82 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: reporter that wrote a review of the first three episodes, 83 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: and I love this so much, they said. Whoever wrote 84 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: this said, it's a show that's very aware of how 85 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: disposable it is, Like, you watch it once, you're never 86 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 1: gonna watch it again. Me, dude, great to know about yourself. 87 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: I know, well know, but I agree though, Like I 88 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 1: think it's a show that knows it's like just fun 89 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: goes down so easy, it's so easy to it's relatively 90 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: easy to follow, great performances. I would say, I'm kind 91 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: of blown away by what she ended up being capable of. 92 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: That Kaylee, that Kaylee Quoco, Kaylee Quoco feels like very 93 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: sis head culture to me, which I love. I just 94 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: never engaged with Kaylee, but now I'm like, she's never 95 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 1: I know, but now she's like moving queer of center, 96 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: I think, And I really like this. I love a 97 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 1: little bit queer of center, which, which of course, um 98 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: is is that left or right is to be queer 99 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: of center. I think being queer of center just it's 100 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 1: a circle, so it just means you're moving away from 101 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: the center of the circle. I think to be queer 102 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: means to be south north of center, Okay, And that's 103 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: actually rule of culture to be queer means you are 104 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: south south or north of center center and that's sort 105 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: of spring, summer, more, summer, more more September joggers. Um 106 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: but anyway, Um, yes, thrilled with with the flight attendant. Um, 107 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: did you so? I guess you? I guess because of 108 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,119 Speaker 1: being on Saturday Night Live the Sketch Show, you sort 109 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: of didn't get the opportunity to audition for the gay 110 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: Shane in the show. Oh no, we see the flight attendant, 111 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: the gay flight attendant. Yes, he's wonderful. He booked it. 112 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 1: I I celebrate him and every gay friend that books 113 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 1: because I did go out for this part, and um, 114 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: I go I I. I just want to celebrate my 115 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: sister who who booked it. I don't know his name, 116 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: but I just want to say in the show is 117 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: doing an amazing job. And I always want to celebrate 118 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 1: the gay in the show because it's hard out here 119 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 1: for the gay in the show, and oftentimes there's only one, 120 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: but not in the piece of culture that our guest 121 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: is dare we say it, responsible for? Very responsible for well, 122 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: you and you and our guests have crossed paths in 123 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: a very acrimonious way over the summer. First of all, 124 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: this is a huge week first Survivor huge. It's on 125 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: Netflix just like if, as if we needed something else 126 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: to pile on. I'm watching Heroes Versus Villains again. Keikey 127 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 1: Palmer is tweeting about it. Oh God, and our guest 128 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: is wearing her above Yeah, don't know, forget it. The 129 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: guest is so just background for some of them, maybe 130 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: the newer readers who haven't been around during quarantine. But 131 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: famously the story goes the quarantine hit. We got a 132 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: little obsessed with Survivor, me a little bit more so 133 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: than bo I got so says that I joined a 134 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: Survivor quarantine addition and our guest. I was very excited 135 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: because our guest was also a contestant. At some point 136 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: along the way, I thought the guest was my ally, 137 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,600 Speaker 1: and she just stabbed me in the back and I 138 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:21,119 Speaker 1: deserved And the guest ultimately did not win the show. Um, 139 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: which I also love. I also love that, UM, but 140 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: I do. I was very fun to play Survivor with 141 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: the guests and sort of have real conversations that were 142 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: fake that I thought were real. Um. And now that 143 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: now we can sort of have a real conversation for 144 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: the first time, since the survivor quarantine has ended. Um, 145 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: but this person is very very dear to me and 146 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: I love this person. And you may know her from well, 147 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: let's just say the storied improv group Wild Horses, which 148 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: was just legendary. You may know her from. I mean 149 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,679 Speaker 1: television shows such as Works and rec Curb Your Enthusiasm, VEEP. 150 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: The list truly goes on. We actually have someone in 151 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: the chat who quote unquote books as they say, um, 152 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: the newest credit bo. Have you gotten a chance to 153 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: consume the film Happiest Season? I adored the film Happiest Season. 154 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: She is the co writer and co star. We we can, 155 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: we can absolutely say that and we and we were 156 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: telling her she stole the damn movie. She did steal 157 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: the damn movie. And it would be hard to steal 158 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: a movie with the following cast. Kristen Stewart, Mackenzie Davis, 159 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: Alison Bree who's really really funny in the movie. Um, 160 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: and she has one line. Her intro line killed me. Um. 161 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: But anyway, Mary Steenberg and Victor Garber, Dan Levy. I mean, 162 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: this is a stacked cast. Little guest appearance by Michelle Bouteau, 163 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: which we love. Oh yes, First seeing baby our guest 164 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: really runs away with the movie and also co wrote 165 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: the movie, which we should say was also co written 166 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: and directed by Clio Duval.

And we are very thrilled. 168 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: The time is now, the time is here to welcome 169 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 1: into everyone's ears. Mary, Mary Hollow. We're very happy. I 170 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: am very happy. Do how are you feeling. Oh my god, 171 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: I'm just thrilled. I'm thrilled to be here. I was 172 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: having the toughest time not just laughing all the way 173 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: through this conversation. I didn't want to ruin the audio. No, 174 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: you could. You could never ruin. You could only contribute. 175 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: And so what I want to know what? I feel 176 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: like we have to open up the floor immediately, but 177 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: into undoing discussion. Oh yes, let's get into it, girl, ladies. 178 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: What did we think? Wow? Wow, six episodes, what a ride? 179 00:09:54,880 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 1: They really did it. That's that's my day. Oh my gosh. Well, 180 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: you know, hey, it ended up being who we thought, 181 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 1: which is the problem? Which is which the problem? See, 182 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: I don't think it's a problem for everyone. That's that's 183 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: I'll do this for the last time. Spoiler alert, But 184 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: Hugh Grant was revealed as the killer on the Undoing, 185 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: and this sort of was what they flat out said 186 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: to us was pretty much gonna happen in the first episode, 187 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: and we sort of went back and forth and hemden hat. 188 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: I mean, Bowe and I have been talking for weeks 189 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: about what we what we think is going to happen, 190 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 1: and I understand that it's in the end. It's like 191 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: a morality tale maybe about um, you know, you're, you're, 192 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: you're in your confirmation biases, whatever, being like having to 193 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: like let those go because she says on the stand 194 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: exactly like that was like the sort of the thesis 195 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: of the whole show being um, yeah, testifying. It really was, 196 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 1: like I guess, like a morality play almost about like 197 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: you actually know people from well, I guess the whole 198 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: idea is you actually know everything you need to know 199 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: about a person when you first meet them, and like, um, 200 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: when you first like get to know them. And I 201 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: think what they're sort of getting at here is we 202 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 1: allow ourselves to sort of create someone in our minds 203 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: based on who we need them to be um and 204 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: sometimes change who they are, which I don't really know 205 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: if it's a real thing, or if it's just something 206 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: that this show is sort of created too, so that 207 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: I mean they have a story, so they'd have a story. 208 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: I guess I appreciated that the audience was going through 209 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: the same thing that the characters were going through, which was, oh, no, 210 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: it can't be him. We believe him, and then it 211 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: turns out we shouldn't have. I love that analysis. What 212 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 1: what in a student now elysis? I've been thinking about it, 213 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: probably too hard. Well. Gen Cheney and Vulture Today wrote 214 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 1: about how the whole series is a red herring and 215 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: how that kind of is such a weird viewing experience. Also, 216 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: David Kelly does this thing where maybe he doesn't do 217 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: the thing, maybe he just like picks source material that 218 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: like does this thing where like the climax is the 219 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: end and that's it, Like there's no resolution beyond like 220 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: the most tense anxiety inducing situation, like like Big Little 221 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: Eye season one, it ends on like him being pushed 222 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,079 Speaker 1: down the stairs and then and then and then it's done, 223 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: and then this again, like it ends with him about 224 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: being about to jump off a bridge and then like credits. 225 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: So it's it's so interesting. It's just so like weird 226 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: to for me as a view or to like see 227 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: this and then have it all build up to like 228 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: a crazy thing and then just to have it so 229 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: abruptly finish. Yeah right, I tell you what that David E. Kelly, 230 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: he does a lot. Uh that's a culture, that's a 231 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:12,959 Speaker 1: culture number he does. He certainly is prolific. He certainly 232 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: is um. Yeah, that's so that's so interesting to think 233 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: of other stories that he's been involved with. I have 234 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: to say, I sort of listen, we've already spoiled it. Okay, 235 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: yeah you can go there, go there, Okay, I know 236 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: you want to know I do the moment on the well, 237 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: I was like, what is this building to? When he 238 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: kidnapped his son and started driving with him, and I 239 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 1: was like, he's gonna kill him. He's going to do 240 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: I mean, and maybe Hugh Grant didn't have a plan either, 241 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 1: Maybe his character didn't have a plan. He's just driving. 242 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: But when he when he got to the bridge and 243 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: he got out, and he he like looked like he 244 00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: was about to do it and then and then ultimately didn't. Yeah. 245 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 1: I was not that I need you know. I'm glad 246 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: his character got arrested. But but it was sort of 247 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: like it was building to this crescendo and then was like, 248 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: that's all fine. I really feel like the question that 249 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: I have a lot throughout this series, and I understand, Like, 250 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: here's what I'll say. The finale was thrilling to watch, 251 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: you know what I mean in terms of like it 252 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: being a thriller and being engrossing. Yes, they did an 253 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: amazing job and a lot of the direction was great 254 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: and the performances were amazing. Like a lot of the 255 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: acting here was incredible. I mean, Noma is the reason, 256 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: the reason for the season. Okay, she is. She is 257 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: truly amazing. For people that don't know Noma, I believe Wenny. 258 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: And she plays the lawyer, Hailey Fitzgerald, the defense attorney, 259 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: and she's she should be nominated for Emmy for this. 260 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: I think Hugh Grant should win an Emmy for this. 261 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: I think he's he was stunning, He was menacing, and 262 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: he was scary a care you really and he also 263 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: delivered on his Hugh Grant charm and really everything that 264 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 1: we know of him was there and more. And to 265 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: be this long in your career and then be able 266 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: to like play a character that we can't get a 267 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 1: finger on is really something. But for me, the question 268 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 1: that kept popping up was just why, like why when 269 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: when the sun says at the restaurant, we can get 270 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: a dog? Now, why would he How does it protect 271 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 1: him to be honest with his wife that it was 272 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: actually his sister, you know what I mean? Like why 273 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: does he get you know what I mean? Like like 274 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: what's the purpose of that? What's And also I just 275 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: wanted to know, like what exactly stops him from committing 276 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 1: suicide at the end, like we see that he's just 277 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: cares about himself, you know what I mean, all of 278 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: a sudden, Now all of a sudden, now he cares 279 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: about his son and wife. He was just gonna he 280 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 1: just almost got them hit by a huge, big rup. 281 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: I do love. I do love. At the end though, 282 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: when when he did like step down and she she 283 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: to her son and she was like pulling him away 284 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 1: from her, he was like, come here, Grace. Yeah, it 285 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: was like run I was, and I literally I was 286 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 1: like they still need to run because he is right there. 287 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: But another thing too, is just like here's like I 288 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: don't mean to be like uncool and Lynn cheney ish 289 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: about this, all right, but like the violence against women 290 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 1: was too casual in this for me. But I feel 291 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: like no one is really talking about it. We did 292 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: not need essentially what they've did. Well, I guess my, my, my, 293 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: my number one thing after leaving this. Yes, it was 294 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: fun to watch. Yes, it was great to see Nicole 295 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: cross streets and her coats and her wig, and we 296 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: love her and she was fabulous and she's Nicole and 297 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: she's amazing. But so it was worth watching. And like 298 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: I said, there's a lot of great things about it. 299 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: I feel that this fetishized her from the beginning. We 300 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: saw her as someone who was sexually forward, someone who 301 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: like owned her sexuality. She was naked a lot of 302 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: the time, and essentially we had to relive her extremely 303 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: brutal murder six times every episode, including cuts where you 304 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: didn't see the violence coming at all. Ultimately, we knew 305 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: very well what happened to her, and still they showed 306 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: it in close up graphic detail, and I don't think 307 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 1: it helped anything for except a narrative, which is we 308 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: really need to and especially because the fact that she 309 00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: was this like sort of ethereal ethnic woman who was 310 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: younger and like sexualized from the beginning and then we 311 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: basically only know her as like a corpse with semen 312 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: in it, which they keep saying, and I'm like, you 313 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 1: know what, this to me, combined with the fact that 314 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: they showed it so viscerally, to me ultimately is not good. 315 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: That's how I feel about it. Um, I said out 316 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: loud during the flashback. I was like this, this sucks. 317 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 1: I was like this. I was like, they did not 318 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,080 Speaker 1: need to do I set that out loud as I 319 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: did too. I did too. I was like, I didn't 320 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: stop showing that. Stop. I don't know, I understand it. 321 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 1: I don't need to keep seeing the moment of the 322 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: hammer hitting her temple like we would have been effective. 323 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: Is if, like you know they is if like you 324 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 1: go all the way up to the shot looking down 325 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: on her face and then like he's about to swing it, 326 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: and then you cut and then you don't show any 327 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: of like the the impact. And then I thought, maybe 328 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 1: are they trying because I know it's a it's a 329 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: female director, Nicole's producing it, you know what I mean, Like, 330 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: I know that they probably involved a ton of women 331 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 1: in this, and so I thought, maybe is the point 332 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: to not shy away from what actual violence looks like 333 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: so that people understand the gravity of the situation. But 334 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, it's always just gonna 335 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,680 Speaker 1: be icky to me when it's on HBO, which is 336 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: a network which has had problems with this before, and 337 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like and the way that 338 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,880 Speaker 1: they contextualize and characterized her throughout the entire season, because 339 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 1: when you flash back, you only have see her doing 340 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: either illicit things with Hugh or sort of like remembering 341 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: her like liaison with Nicole, or she's a corpse. You 342 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 1: never see her as a mother. I don't think there's 343 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 1: a single scene with her and her son, Miguel, who 344 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: had cancer, you know what I mean. Like, it's just 345 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 1: I just did not think the depiction of Elena was responsible, 346 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 1: and I think that, like it's I'm really happy that 347 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: everyone had fun with it. I had fun with it. 348 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: I loved guessing who it was gonna be weekend and 349 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: week week out. I thought that that it was cool 350 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: the way they did it. It was thrilling. Ultimately, though, 351 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,120 Speaker 1: this turned out to be more of a soap than 352 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: Big Little Lies ever was, and it wasn't even about 353 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 1: anything like at least Big Little Lies was like about 354 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: domestic violence and the lengths that we go to to 355 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 1: cover it up, and and the way that we kind 356 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 1: of similarly see in a monster what we need to 357 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: see to keep our life going because of convenience, love, whatever, 358 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 1: um inability to recognize the situation for what it is. 359 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: This was just like literally the moral was careful your 360 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,360 Speaker 1: husband might be a psycho and it might be your fault. 361 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: That's right, it might be all on you. Ultimately, what 362 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: he did was because of you. Like the girl, I 363 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: hope you have a helicopter and a gorgeous best friend 364 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: who's a lawyer with friends that she can ask in 365 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: a bathroom to like fu up. It was so out 366 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,719 Speaker 1: of control. It was a drag show. And we did 367 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: get a death drop ending like I wanted. So, I 368 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: don't know, I I felt nothing by the end. Like 369 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: once the credits rolled, I was like, was this was this? 370 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: This was so padded out by yes, Nicole crossing streets 371 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: and Nicole standing on balconies on Central Park West at dawn. 372 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: I was just like this, what what is closure of 373 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: her eyes?

Yes, I played Jane. 489 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: I play her heart for McKenzie Davis is the youngest sister. 490 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: I play the middle sister. And then Alison Bree plays 491 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:09,400 Speaker 1: our older sister. Yes, and we love a solid family 492 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: resemblance Vavair style. Oh yeah, we we have her brunettes 493 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: across the board, across the board. Also, we should say 494 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: again Mary steinberg In plays the mom. She is just 495 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: I think one of my favorite people in the world 496 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:30,120 Speaker 1: with you, she's completely delightful. Oh my god, she's amazing. Yeah. 497 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: But um, so there's there was one line that Alison 498 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: Brie had in the beginning when you first meet when 499 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: when when she first meets Christin Stewart's character and she 500 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: just goes, she just goes, Hi, I'm Sloan and she 501 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: has to leave. She leaves without asking what her name is. 502 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: It's so good. Alison's delivery was so good. She really 503 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:56,160 Speaker 1: stepped into that role. I love her as good. Is 504 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: she as good as she as you think? Yes, yes, 505 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: she's good as good as I think. We we we 506 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: also we also asked Betty Gilben that because when we 507 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: when Betty came on and they did glow together obviously, UM, 508 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: but I feel like we are inching towards maybe getting 509 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 1: some brill on this. You gotta get Brian. Oh, you 510 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:20,959 Speaker 1: have to get I would She's she's so spectacular and 511 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: she's so she's so funny. We would play this game 512 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: on like in between setups and stuff from uh we 513 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: had downtime, we would play like this word game and 514 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: she and Mackenzie Davis and Kristen too. The there's like 515 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: an element of the game where you have to like 516 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: create a clue. Um, And normally it's just like, oh, 517 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: it's a sentence or something, but those three would make 518 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: and Mary to actually they would make like full rhyming 519 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: limericks as a clue. They would invent these incredible riddles 520 00:29:56,440 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: that uh that were it was really a sounding. They're 521 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: also funny, and Allison is just such a bright light 522 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: of a human. I think this is like as convincing 523 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: of a family in a Christmas movie since The Family Stone. 524 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 1: I want to say, like, like Mary Stein Virgin, Victor 525 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: Garber got Mary Holland, and then you got you got 526 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: Mackenzie Davis, you got Alison Bree, Like like, look at 527 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: that there is used on paper. It's great you're saying, 528 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: like it just it just it works, and it's so 529 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, it was just just just so so wonderful. 530 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: I'm so glad you liked it that it warms my heart. 531 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 1: It really put me in the spirit. It really put 532 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: me on the spirit, and I'm so happy that it's 533 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 1: obviously so easy for everyone to watch because you just 534 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: can streaming on damn Hulu. It's hard lately to feel 535 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 1: in the spirit of Christmas, and honestly, watching the movie 536 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: Happiest Season made me say, I actually am gonna gonna 537 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: do more of Christmas stuff, So I'm trying to turn 538 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 1: my turn, my thing to show you Christmas a little 539 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: Christmas tree. It's so shitty, but it's mine tree on 540 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: the floor. It's on the floor. Yeah, it's four feet tall. 541 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: But literally before Happiest season, I would never have gotten 542 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: that tree. She goes, Oh wow, it's but like for 543 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: real though, it is so funny. You are so good 544 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: in it, talk about like we were not kidding when 545 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 1: we said steal the movie like you you like really 546 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 1: are so good. Oh, Matt, thank you. Listen. Now that 547 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 1: we've buttered you up, Um, I have to, I guess, 548 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: but now we have to pick a bone with you. Okay, 549 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna put me right in the toaster. What was 550 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 1: with the way that you treated me on Survivor form 551 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 1: the way because you stabbed me in the back? And 552 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 1: I did, I know, I know, and I have to 553 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: tell you. I listen, I really really struggled with the 554 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: choice that I made in the game and how it 555 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 1: impacted you. I did. I can't tell you. I really 556 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: cried a lot, and I really did. She wears her 557 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: heart honestly, if she does, I do. And the here's 558 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: the thing, we as fans of Survivor, we know that 559 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: the name of the game is, Hey, what's gonna get 560 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 1: me further? How can I set myself up to continue 561 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: to play below the radar but still make big moves? 562 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: And of course, you know, as someone who is such 563 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: a fan of the game and observes people playing with 564 00:32:56,320 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: with such um such incredible well skills of social manipulation, 565 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 1: I thought to myself, well what if I what if 566 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: I were to step into that and play the game 567 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 1: as hard as I could. And now that's not to 568 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: say Matt that the conversations that we had as as friends. 569 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: I know, I'm kidding. I did she she turned around 570 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: and voted me out, and I literally I instamed her, 571 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: and because while the game was while the game was 572 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 1: still going, I was out. This was not because honestly 573 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: this was against the rules, but I did anyway. I 574 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 1: instadium her and I was like, what you did to 575 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: me has really hurt me. And the only way that 576 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: we can sort of get through this is if you 577 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: come on lost coach, and I want you to know 578 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: that my I don't think so honey is about you 579 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 1: and this week. And then she said, I am so 580 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: sorry for the ways in which I hurt you, and 581 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: I hope that we can separate the game from from 582 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 1: from our real life. And I was like, oh my god, 583 00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: I'm so fine. I don't know. Oh my god, Matt, 584 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: you have you have no idea? I really like I 585 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 1: I have. I this is a person that is important 586 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 1: to me and whose friend is important to me, and 587 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: I've ruined it and from what and what games? No, 588 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 1: you can't let you can't let Matt just sort of 589 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: outplay you when he's not even in the game. You 590 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: emtionally manipulated when he's gone that game. It turned me 591 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: right on my head. I was it was so intense 592 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,719 Speaker 1: and and you know what I learned and I can't 593 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: do it, could never. We we had the question of 594 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: of oh, what would it be like to play this game? 595 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: And the answer is, well, you can't and you should 596 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: you shouldn't. Well, who's Matt whose play style? Would you say, 597 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: Mary remind did you have from Survivor the show? I 598 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 1: would say chaos Cast. I would say Mary was definitely 599 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 1: a chaos Cast of chances. I don't know if you 600 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: know chaos Cast Bowen, but like, I've never seen what 601 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,439 Speaker 1: I'd say. If you want to get to know chaos Cast, 602 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: you can currently stream Cagayan, which is one of the 603 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 1: best seasons of Survivor. I think you would agree, Mary, 604 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: I agree, absolutely. It's currently on Netflix, and it is 605 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: a it's just a few seasons on Netflix, right, they 606 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: have and they have they have Here's versus Villains. It's 607 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,959 Speaker 1: so goofy the way they're doing this. I don't because 608 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: I wouldn't recommend watching either of those seasons. Yeah, yeah, 609 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 1: of course, that is interesting that they just chose those 610 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 1: to stream there. I think maybe it's because they have 611 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:35,359 Speaker 1: like reputation as the best seasons maybe right, right, yes, yes, 612 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 1: people have been reaching out asking us again for our 613 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: Survivors syllabus. It's it's just because Mary is a huge, 614 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:48,240 Speaker 1: huge Survivor fan. Correct, huge. So what I tell people 615 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 1: for islands Pearl Islands, Oh that's great, yeah, Cook Islands, 616 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 1: Cook Islands, China, China, Micronesia. I have added token teens 617 00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:03,720 Speaker 1: onto this, oh yeah, and then Heroes versus Villains and 618 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 1: then and then I say, talk to me, because that 619 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: actually I think that that that order sets up heroes 620 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,280 Speaker 1: versus villains in a way. And some people add Panama 621 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: to this so that you can get the origin of surree. 622 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 1: But I feel you don't necessarily need the origin of 623 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: Surree because she's really the Then again, you do get 624 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: Danielle to on Panama. I don't know, Like I don't, 625 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,240 Speaker 1: I didn't. I don't necessarily need that season to understand 626 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 1: why Surree is is unbelievable if you're trying to quickly 627 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 1: get through it to watch heroes versus villains, like Micronesia 628 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: is Surree Town and she's an icon that I think 629 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: that is an amazing syllabus and I think, um, all 630 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 1: of the students of this podcast should study up. Yeah 631 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 1: we've given them homework before, Okay, Um, but yeah, can 632 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 1: you wait? Can you? I just I still don't understand 633 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: how survivor quarantine work to like, how how many how 634 00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: many hours in the day did you guys spend like 635 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 1: on the island talk about like what the like what 636 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: the twenty four hours a day? Yeah? I mean now 637 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: they have shifted it. I think because of our season 638 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 1: they now they can only communicate in a certain like 639 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 1: window of time during the day. But it was truly 640 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 1: like how who whenever you could be on slack and 641 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: talking to people any hour of the day or night. Um, 642 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,360 Speaker 1: it was so maddening and I feel like there was 643 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: this element to it that made it so so much 644 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: more like and I, of course I have never played 645 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: the actual games. I don't know, but if I think 646 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 1: about playing the actual game, I think about like, Okay, 647 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: well people are gonna see me walking away with Matt 648 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 1: and no, we're gonna we're having a conversation. But in 649 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 1: Quarantine Island, no one knows who's talking to who, Like 650 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: there's no there's no dual for that. So it had 651 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: so many layers of deception, and it is so intense. 652 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 1: It was a low point of jaredinized relationship. Let's just 653 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 1: say that it was. Yeah, he he was like you 654 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: I He was like, I have to tell you something. 655 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 1: I can't wait for you to get voted out. He 656 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 1: was like, I root for you for everything, but I 657 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 1: can't wait for you to get voted out because I 658 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 1: would like. It was just like so intense in a 659 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:30,960 Speaker 1: way where it's like I signed up for it. I 660 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: don't know how you felt, Mary, but I was like, oh, 661 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 1: this will be fun. And I was honestly looking for 662 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,719 Speaker 1: something to do online to like sort of entertain people 663 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: that followed me with I was like, maybe some people 664 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 1: will will actually follow along and then unfortunately, like I 665 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 1: don't know how you are, but I can't really help myself, 666 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 1: and I ended up getting very invested into it and 667 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 1: immediately made huge mistakes, Like I was just like, I 668 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: mean there was a tribal council where I stunted on 669 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 1: those It was so hard and it was like the 670 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 1: third it was fantastic. I mean it was it was 671 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:09,719 Speaker 1: musty TV. It was musty TV. But it put a 672 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: target target on my back that could never come off. 673 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Mary saw it him was like, Okay, 674 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: he needs to go. Yeah, we're you're doing like either 675 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: a challenge or um a council, a tribal council like 676 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: every other day, so you're and sometimes you're doing like 677 00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:33,879 Speaker 1: back to back tribals and like you it is just 678 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 1: it's so chaotic and there's no time to like settled 679 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 1: into it. Like I feel like our nervous systems were 680 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 1: peak like alert for an entire month and it was 681 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: um so emotional and really and really really wild. I 682 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 1: don't know if if that gets compounded by the fact 683 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: that it was like early lockdown days. Absolutely it was 684 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: like it was like I think because we were still 685 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 1: in that lockdown phase where it's like, oh, no one's 686 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: doing anything that it completely filled up like time. And 687 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: also it wasn't like you were playing for a million dollars. 688 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: I think it was playing for a couple of hundred bucks. 689 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 1: But we all acted like we were and it was 690 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 1: so crazy. Ultimately, though, at the end of the season, 691 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:23,839 Speaker 1: we had like this final travel council where we all 692 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: voted and everything and did the whole thing and I 693 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 1: got to ask questions. We were both on the jury, 694 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,359 Speaker 1: so we both got to like have that moment and 695 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 1: like it was such drama. And then honestly, this girl, 696 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:38,919 Speaker 1: Brittany the right person. She earned it for sure. Um, 697 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 1: but my whole goal, I will say, going into this season, 698 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 1: I was like, there's no way I'll win. I simply 699 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:50,359 Speaker 1: I simply can't. But I will try to make it 700 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: to the jury. That absolutely my dream. Yeah, we made 701 00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: the merge and we were all celebrating. It was like 702 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: we actually had done the real show. It was like, 703 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 1: this is so if this is always third unhinged exactly 704 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: it was I did. I was the five was I 705 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 1: made the mergin that I was the first person voted 706 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: out like like like literally unanimously because I had. I 707 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 1: couldn't believe I made it that far, Like I I 708 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: had shake, I had been doing such shady ship and 709 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 1: I was I was. I was like I started to 710 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:25,959 Speaker 1: actively play a villain, like just would be funny. I did, 711 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:30,359 Speaker 1: but it got crazy and people's feelings really got and 712 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 1: like like in a real way, like some people that 713 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 1: like it was crazy, and then like the way that 714 00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 1: people were talking about me, I was like, oh no, 715 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,840 Speaker 1: it really feels it and I can, like, of course, 716 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:47,359 Speaker 1: now that I've had six months to process, I can 717 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: I can like look at that and be like, oh wow, Yeah. 718 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 1: I really did get so emotionally invested, and everybody who 719 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 1: played did into different degrees. The week or two coming 720 00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:01,560 Speaker 1: out of it, I I cried so much with my 721 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 1: relationship to Matt. Was like, this can't be all that 722 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:11,799 Speaker 1: we have happening. But but seriously it was. It was 723 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:15,960 Speaker 1: like I considered like myself and you very normal people, 724 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 1: but I was just like, I was like, this is 725 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 1: so it just really like the stakes were so high 726 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 1: because it played on a paranoia and also because it 727 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 1: took place over social media. I think it played on 728 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 1: this sort of paranoia and social media thing, like it 729 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:33,839 Speaker 1: was all over slack. So it was just very easy 730 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 1: to get on slack and stay on slack. And like 731 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 1: I said, this was during a more like like like 732 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 1: you were saying, Bowen, like during a more uncertain time 733 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: in the pandemic. So that was also weird. But ultimately 734 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 1: I'm very happy that that we played because I do 735 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 1: think that, um, it was it was some it was 736 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: some fun moments. There were some fun moments, and it 737 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 1: was it was sort of you know, it's very I 738 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 1: really have trouble accessing my rage and not that I 739 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,880 Speaker 1: did access it. I didn't, but it was fun to 740 00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 1: get close. Still it's still more work to be done, 741 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,760 Speaker 1: but it was it was like it's such a crash 742 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: course and like doing things for your own self interest 743 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:25,839 Speaker 1: and you know, screwing people over in the meantime and 744 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 1: that is you know, and now that's how I live 745 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: my life and I love it. Wow. And now she's 746 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 1: the Hollywood big shot. I mean she's she's in a 747 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 1: Damn You Christmas the family classic she created on her Okay, 748 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:46,720 Speaker 1: so I think it might be time to ask the question, 749 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 1: bow Mary. We want to ask you what was the 750 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 1: culture that made you say culture is for me? Mat 751 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,719 Speaker 1: What does that mean, well, this sort of is you know, 752 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 1: we should say we asked this of all lost culture, yes, Margatro, 753 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:03,279 Speaker 1: because we got to cared. No. Um, we want to 754 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,879 Speaker 1: know what was the culture that you can look back 755 00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: on in your life and say, wow, that pop culture 756 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:13,360 Speaker 1: that moment in my life, uh, really sort of defined 757 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 1: me and made me follow an instinct I may not 758 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,239 Speaker 1: have prior to engaging with that culture. I have an 759 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 1: answer for you. My answer is the Lord of the 760 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 1: Rings franchise. And this sort of this sort of comes 761 00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 1: all the way full circle because your character in the 762 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 1: movie is very into writing her sort of sci fi yes, 763 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 1: her fantasy novel. It's really it has expanded so much 764 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 1: just the little details that we've added that I feel like, 765 00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:48,080 Speaker 1: were I to really try to write The Shadow Dreamers 766 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 1: and The Second Sister, it would be in ten volumes 767 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,760 Speaker 1: and it would take me seven years between each volume. 768 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 1: But you do you have the general outline or you 769 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:59,800 Speaker 1: have the Lord figured out? Yeah? Yeah, as a sketch, 770 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,720 Speaker 1: there's like a loose sket of the lore was immediate, 771 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 1: more specific obviously, but um, but yes, that all started 772 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 1: for me in a very formative time in my life, 773 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:14,880 Speaker 1: and I was I think the first Lord of the 774 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,879 Speaker 1: Rings Fellowship of the Ring. Yeah, I think that came 775 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,880 Speaker 1: out when I was like twelve or thirteen, the movie, 776 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:24,359 Speaker 1: the movie, the movie, because the book's famously came up 777 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:30,719 Speaker 1: over three yar ago, and the book not a century ago. 778 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 1: I think, yes, a Fellowship of the Ring came out 779 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 1: the four in the almost a century. Wait, okay, the 780 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: Hobby came out in ven um. Sorry, it doesn't matter. 781 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 1: Hold on not quite a century, but almost I've been 782 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:57,319 Speaker 1: I've been corrected. Look, wait, and is it was Lord 783 00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 1: of the Rings a parable? Not a parable? But was 784 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 1: that mapped on a World War Two at all? That? 785 00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 1: That's Harry Potter. We do know that is that there 786 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 1: are some analyzes of the of the book that that 787 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,759 Speaker 1: um draw those parallels. But I don't know if J. R. 788 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 1: Tolkien ever came out right and said like he never 789 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 1: said it's the war girl. Yeah, he didn't, And he 790 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 1: had plenty of opportunities, plenty of opportunities. Had a content. 791 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,760 Speaker 1: Han says, he said he wanted it to be more universal. 792 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: There's a quote I'll find. Look, he's off to get 793 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 1: the quote. He's off. Okay, so sorry we cut you off. Mary. 794 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:34,760 Speaker 1: So the start. It started out when the first movie 795 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 1: came out and she was one. I had never seen 796 00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 1: anything like it. I had never seen anything like it, 797 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 1: and I didn't. It's sort of you know, as a 798 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:50,439 Speaker 1: as a kid, I was very imaginative. I I could 799 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 1: really keep myself entertained for hours and hours just playing 800 00:46:53,840 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 1: by myself, creating words. I'm fine, fine, yes, yes, But 801 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,759 Speaker 1: I had never I didn't really know much about the 802 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:11,399 Speaker 1: fantasy genre. Like I feel like I read or had 803 00:47:11,640 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 1: read to me the one of the books of the 804 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:16,320 Speaker 1: Chronicles of Narnier or something and loved it. But it wasn't. 805 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 1: It was not a facet of my passion that it 806 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 1: was that facet was was asleep, was asleep in a cave, 807 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:33,560 Speaker 1: much like smile ye, yes, yes, naturally a title of that, 808 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:41,359 Speaker 1: much like wait, hold on, we have quote. We have quote? Okay, um, 809 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 1: he said, Ton says, dramatic reading in gan Delf voice necessary. So, actually, Mary, 810 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:47,880 Speaker 1: would you like to do the honors and read this? 811 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:56,680 Speaker 1: Oh my fucking god. Yes. I cordially dislike Allory in 812 00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: all its manifestations, and always have done so, so old 813 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 1: and weary enough to detect its presence. I much prefer history, 814 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:09,040 Speaker 1: true or fame with its very applicability to the thought 815 00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:12,959 Speaker 1: and experience of readers. I think that many confused applicability 816 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 1: with allegory, But the one resides in the freedom of 817 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 1: the reader, and the other in the purposed domination of 818 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 1: the author. Wow. First of all, we have to applaud 819 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:30,360 Speaker 1: the reading first, thank you readers. Applaud the reading. And 820 00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:34,399 Speaker 1: then we have to applaud that incredible research by Head 821 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 1: of Contents. Yes, that was beautiful and what an amazing quote. 822 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:43,440 Speaker 1: It really is a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful so um you 823 00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:46,800 Speaker 1: you go see the movie and it's a it's a moment. 824 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:51,279 Speaker 1: It's a moment. It felt like something unfurled within me 825 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:55,800 Speaker 1: that I did not know was there. And it totally 826 00:48:55,960 --> 00:49:01,000 Speaker 1: like I've of course became a massive fan of the 827 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 1: Lord of the Rings movies, went back, read the Hobbit 828 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 1: in its entirety, read the books, read the Lord of 829 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 1: the Rings books. Like I. I just really was like, 830 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 1: Oh my god, there's this whole there's this whole world 831 00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,839 Speaker 1: that was just created and you and that you don't 832 00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:21,360 Speaker 1: have to like you can I can live in that world. 833 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:24,440 Speaker 1: I don't have to. Does that make sense? Like it's 834 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 1: it's almost like, oh my god, this whole thing was 835 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: just is there for me the whole time, and I 836 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:31,920 Speaker 1: had no idea. I'm laughing because it's one of the 837 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: funniest lines in the movie where you go it takes 838 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:38,360 Speaker 1: a long time to build the world, And it's true. 839 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:41,480 Speaker 1: I had to stop it and rewind it like like 840 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 1: ten times. It was so funny. It takes a long 841 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:51,320 Speaker 1: time to builds her Wine like such a good character. 842 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 1: It really really really is that you didn't you killed 843 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:56,840 Speaker 1: it writing it for yourself and not to not to 844 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 1: not to move away from the lord the rings. I 845 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 1: want to know, was it sort of the grandeur? Was 846 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,360 Speaker 1: it the fantasy was or was it just the big 847 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 1: like was it the um complex? Like how many characters 848 00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 1: there were? It? Was it? Just? What was it? I 849 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,920 Speaker 1: think it was a combination of all those things. I 850 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,719 Speaker 1: think I sort of like found I almost found a 851 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:22,040 Speaker 1: solace in it. It was like, um, the colors of 852 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:25,400 Speaker 1: that world and the sort of the like thinking of 853 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:29,360 Speaker 1: Hobbiton in the Shire, and it just made me feel 854 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:34,319 Speaker 1: so safe, And you know, I was entering puberty in 855 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:38,280 Speaker 1: a time that's decidedly not safe and feels really scary 856 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:40,960 Speaker 1: and overwhelming and so I feel like I really took 857 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:45,600 Speaker 1: up shelter in the in the in how detailed and 858 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:49,719 Speaker 1: nuanced this world was. And the story, of course is 859 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 1: so beautiful as well, like that the messages of like 860 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 1: even the smallest person can change the course of the future. Yes, 861 00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 1: oh my god, was it? But was particular was a 862 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 1: particular scene in the movie so riveting to you? Like 863 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 1: for me, it's like ball rog like that has to 864 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 1: be like the moment where I'm like, oh, I'm in 865 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:18,480 Speaker 1: absolutely I was crushed, crushed, Oh my god, I and 866 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,480 Speaker 1: I thought how they captured that moment with all the 867 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 1: Hobbits like sobbing and like like holding each other like 868 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 1: really grieving. I just I scream cried and I did. Um. 869 00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:35,880 Speaker 1: But I do think that there there was like a 870 00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:39,600 Speaker 1: moment in the movie. It's actually right before that, that 871 00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:43,439 Speaker 1: huge scene. But by the way, I'm just clutching chapstick. Yes, 872 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:51,959 Speaker 1: you got on something nice. It is nice to hold. Um. 873 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 1: I burst my bliss decks. I burst my bliss decks 874 00:51:56,640 --> 00:52:00,839 Speaker 1: in my hand talking about Dan Dolf's death today, I'm 875 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:04,240 Speaker 1: lost cultures. Now there's bliss tics all over my hands. 876 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 1: Is this is this? Are you talking about the Council 877 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,319 Speaker 1: of Land. Oh, I love that thing too. I mean, 878 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:11,719 Speaker 1: there's so many things I love. The thing I was 879 00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 1: gonna talk about was the moment when Um when they're 880 00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 1: like waiting for Gandalf to remember which way to go 881 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 1: in Maria and he's like, he doesn't remember which tunnel, 882 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:23,280 Speaker 1: and so all they're all just like waiting for Gandalf 883 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:26,920 Speaker 1: to remember. And and then and Frodo, Oh this when 884 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,440 Speaker 1: they first see Gallum too. Gallen's kind of lurking around, 885 00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:33,400 Speaker 1: and Gandal kind of fills Frodo in on who Gallum is. 886 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 1: And then Frodo, I, you know, feeling the weight of 887 00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:42,239 Speaker 1: this thing he's been tasked with, says um, Oh, I 888 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:44,439 Speaker 1: wish the ring had never come to me. I wish 889 00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 1: none of this had happened. And then Gandolf says what 890 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: might be my favorite quote in any movie ever. He says, 891 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 1: so do all who live to see such times, But 892 00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 1: that is not for them to decide. All we have 893 00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:01,680 Speaker 1: to decide is what to do with the time that 894 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:05,879 Speaker 1: is given to us. And that's when I knew. That's 895 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:09,520 Speaker 1: when I knew. That's when you said culture beautiful for me. 896 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:14,879 Speaker 1: Culture is for me. That's as good as that's as 897 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:18,799 Speaker 1: good an answer as anything truly, like like the Lord 898 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,719 Speaker 1: of the Rings is is major. I'm not the first 899 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 1: person to say this, but here's I'm about to reveal something. 900 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,880 Speaker 1: I'm about to reveal something that is like Hugh Grant 901 00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 1: killing his not killing his sister, but letting his sister 902 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:35,480 Speaker 1: get hit by a car in the undoing level, like sociopath. 903 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 1: So not the biggest secret in the series, but one 904 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,040 Speaker 1: of the bigger ones, one of the bigger ones that 905 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:44,440 Speaker 1: like truly paints a dark picture of the of the person. 906 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 1: It makes us kind of cockr eyebrow. Yeah, ready, you're ready. 907 00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:54,759 Speaker 1: So I was obsessed with The Lord of the Rings 908 00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:59,280 Speaker 1: the first movie as well, and bought the video games 909 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:02,279 Speaker 1: on game Boy Advance and I believe, I believe that 910 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 1: was that was the only console I had, and I 911 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 1: was obsessed with Lord of the Rings. And then I 912 00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 1: we went to Borders one day and bought paperback versions 913 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 1: of all three books. I started Fellowship at the Ring, 914 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 1: could not make it past the first sixty pages. I 915 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:21,480 Speaker 1: also tried to read it, but then it's a lot, 916 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 1: but I needed to, like, I knew I needed to 917 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:27,280 Speaker 1: like experience it and know more about the world without 918 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:32,280 Speaker 1: doing the actual reading that. I joined a message board online. 919 00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:34,759 Speaker 1: Have you told you this, Matt, No, I was gonna 920 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:37,279 Speaker 1: guess that you were like cleft notes, but no, I 921 00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:39,560 Speaker 1: joined a message where I didn't even do that. But 922 00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:41,960 Speaker 1: I joined a message board online called the Council of 923 00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:46,480 Speaker 1: Elrond where they had where they had like Elvish lessons 924 00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:49,920 Speaker 1: to teach how to write in Elvish and speak in Elvish. 925 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 1: I'm losing it. It might still be around in some 926 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:56,680 Speaker 1: form or to do like the way Back Machine and 927 00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:58,239 Speaker 1: like look it up.

And so then 932 00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:10,680 Speaker 1: I would like I was like I was eleven years old, 933 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 1: and I would be like on these message boards, like 934 00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:17,800 Speaker 1: pretending to play different characters in high fantasy laping online. 935 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 1: But it's like all like long form text things, and 936 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:22,839 Speaker 1: like people would post in there like once, but you'd 937 00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 1: be like building a story together, like one post by 938 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:29,480 Speaker 1: one posts.

And does 1034 01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:40,280 Speaker 1: it help that it's like a period piece, like a 1035 01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:44,840 Speaker 1: piece that takes place in some in some long forgotten past. Yes. 1036 01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:47,720 Speaker 1: And I think that's what I love so much about 1037 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:51,840 Speaker 1: Harry Potter too, is that that world, while it is 1038 01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:56,200 Speaker 1: like modern, it's also has such a deep history and 1039 01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 1: there's still so many elements of it that feel very 1040 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 1: like locked in this specific period of time. Yeah, it is, 1041 01:02:02,160 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 1: it is. It is weirdly enough a period piece. Yea, 1042 01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:08,920 Speaker 1: it is one of the rings, though I will always 1043 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:12,480 Speaker 1: admire how he they just they just kept it at three. 1044 01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:14,440 Speaker 1: I mean there's like still Merillion, there's Hobbit, there's like 1045 01:02:14,440 --> 01:02:17,280 Speaker 1: all the other stuff.

First of all, 1286 01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:28,280 Speaker 1: we have to say, we have to say it's a 1287 01:15:29,080 --> 01:15:31,080 Speaker 1: it's a real it's really close to number I'm sorry 1288 01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:37,040 Speaker 1: to say. Five Great British is hard to say, and 1289 01:15:37,080 --> 01:15:39,680 Speaker 1: we have to say that. We have to say it 1290 01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:42,320 Speaker 1: because no one else will. What were your thoughts on 1291 01:15:42,400 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 1: the finale? Mary, I I really understand where you're coming 1292 01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:49,240 Speaker 1: from home. I really do, because I do think that 1293 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:53,439 Speaker 1: there were it was indicated very early on that like, um, 1294 01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:57,240 Speaker 1: there's so much talent there of course, but you know, 1295 01:15:57,360 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 1: as far as like being able to like get through 1296 01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:05,560 Speaker 1: that high pressure situation and and have the kind of 1297 01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:09,400 Speaker 1: the confidence of like a Pile or a David like that, 1298 01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:12,760 Speaker 1: that is really challenging. And I have to say I 1299 01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:15,679 Speaker 1: agree with your opinion. And what's awful is that everyone 1300 01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:19,479 Speaker 1: came after this this girl Laura because this fan favorite 1301 01:16:19,479 --> 01:16:22,479 Speaker 1: Herman had been eliminated, and so everyone was attacking this 1302 01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:25,400 Speaker 1: girl Laura after the semi final episode and then like 1303 01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:27,920 Speaker 1: Paul Hollywood, people from the show. I would go on 1304 01:16:27,920 --> 01:16:31,200 Speaker 1: in social media bea like, guys, cut it in. That's awful. 1305 01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:35,639 Speaker 1: I just think, like it's it's somehow like most seasons 1306 01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:37,800 Speaker 1: of bake Off are like no, like the reason why 1307 01:16:37,880 --> 01:16:40,960 Speaker 1: you watch the shows because there's no drama, right exactly, 1308 01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:44,559 Speaker 1: it's so pleasant. It's so pleasant, and yet there's all 1309 01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:47,840 Speaker 1: this like there are all these heightened emotions around it, 1310 01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:51,000 Speaker 1: um that I guess have have to do with COVID, 1311 01:16:51,040 --> 01:16:53,639 Speaker 1: but like with the lord of it all. Like I 1312 01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:56,559 Speaker 1: like I thought she she she had great all season, 1313 01:16:56,680 --> 01:17:00,840 Speaker 1: but you know it first it seemed such a choice 1314 01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:03,120 Speaker 1: to carry her through the final instead of someone like her, mean, 1315 01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:08,360 Speaker 1: who was so consistent and tragically slipped up on a season, 1316 01:17:08,479 --> 01:17:10,240 Speaker 1: on on a week that she should have excelled at, 1317 01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:14,880 Speaker 1: which was partissory week. She's this French baker and um, 1318 01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:18,200 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure pressure, but she and she like 1319 01:17:18,320 --> 01:17:22,080 Speaker 1: ditched so Matt, she like for the the show stopp 1320 01:17:22,080 --> 01:17:26,120 Speaker 1: her challenge, like the big climactic challenge of the week. Um, 1321 01:17:26,200 --> 01:17:28,599 Speaker 1: she decided to scrap her original plan and do something 1322 01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:33,120 Speaker 1: completely never different. Experimental did not end up going for her, 1323 01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:36,160 Speaker 1: and this was a specialty of hers, and she decided 1324 01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:39,200 Speaker 1: to try to. Yes, she was, she was friends, she 1325 01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:42,440 Speaker 1: tried to. She and like the judges were like Hubris 1326 01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:48,920 Speaker 1: Hubris once again, Icarus again flying flying too close to 1327 01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:54,639 Speaker 1: Hubris once again once again, and gentlemen Hubris and once 1328 01:17:54,680 --> 01:18:02,280 Speaker 1: again and again and Cubris hub Actually kind of think 1329 01:18:02,320 --> 01:18:06,640 Speaker 1: that's an iconic. I think that's name Humus is a 1330 01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:14,800 Speaker 1: great stage name. Who who wants it? I'm calling? Yeah, 1331 01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:18,559 Speaker 1: I would say to all reality show contestants, um, if 1332 01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:21,559 Speaker 1: it ain't broke, don't fix it, ad just stay of 1333 01:18:21,560 --> 01:18:24,160 Speaker 1: the course, y'all. I always also feel like with any 1334 01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:28,160 Speaker 1: reality show, it's like whenever there's like the fan favorite 1335 01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:30,639 Speaker 1: or like the underdog that gets tossed in with people 1336 01:18:30,640 --> 01:18:33,320 Speaker 1: that actually have a run at the win, I think 1337 01:18:33,320 --> 01:18:37,120 Speaker 1: it makes finale is less fun to be honest with you, like, 1338 01:18:38,160 --> 01:18:41,080 Speaker 1: I just think like like it. It feels like every 1339 01:18:41,080 --> 01:18:45,479 Speaker 1: reality show that's competitive lately, there's always an upset, like 1340 01:18:45,560 --> 01:18:47,760 Speaker 1: there's always just like someone that makes it into the 1341 01:18:47,760 --> 01:18:50,040 Speaker 1: finale because it's gonna be nice to see them there, 1342 01:18:50,080 --> 01:18:51,439 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like for me, that was 1343 01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:53,960 Speaker 1: Crystal Method on Drag Race. For me that was Nelly 1344 01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:56,080 Speaker 1: on Dancing with the Stars. It sounds like it was 1345 01:18:56,120 --> 01:18:59,400 Speaker 1: this individual on Great British Breakoff, where it's just like, yes, 1346 01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:02,000 Speaker 1: we understand they were an important part of the season, 1347 01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:04,760 Speaker 1: that was fun, but this is the finale, you know 1348 01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:08,600 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like, let's let the competitors compete. And 1349 01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:11,200 Speaker 1: I understand that it is subjective and I'll probably get 1350 01:19:11,240 --> 01:19:15,320 Speaker 1: dragged still by the Crystal Method fans, but uh, but 1351 01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:17,000 Speaker 1: that's just the way I feel. I feel like I 1352 01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 1: feel like like at the end of you know, for example, 1353 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 1: an American Idol, that's why you don't want to see 1354 01:19:22,080 --> 01:19:24,479 Speaker 1: Kelly versus Justin. You want to see Kelly versus Tamira. 1355 01:19:24,680 --> 01:19:27,799 Speaker 1: This is, of course, a seventeen eighteen year old season 1356 01:19:27,840 --> 01:19:32,960 Speaker 1: of a television show I'm bringing up, but I'm stating 1357 01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:47,439 Speaker 1: still litigating only on peca. Yeah, and no, if you 1358 01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:49,920 Speaker 1: want a title that's harder pronounced, harder to pronounce than 1359 01:19:49,920 --> 01:19:54,880 Speaker 1: Great British Bake Off, it's still litigating. Honest with you, 1360 01:19:55,040 --> 01:19:59,040 Speaker 1: it's easier to say than great British bakeoff. Okay, still litigating. 1361 01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:03,280 Speaker 1: I think it's time, really, it is time. It's time 1362 01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:11,160 Speaker 1: for a Mary Holland.

And I 1398 01:22:06,439 --> 01:22:10,000 Speaker 1: think that this is maybe the cause of it subsequently 1399 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:14,280 Speaker 1: being buried and made for um for eternity. Is I 1400 01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:17,760 Speaker 1: was like six years old, and um, my parents had 1401 01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:20,320 Speaker 1: some friends over and their kids over to watch the 1402 01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:30,200 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. I'm wrapped, wrapped, wrapped, um. And they were 1403 01:22:30,360 --> 01:22:34,640 Speaker 1: the adults were like watching the Super Bowl in uh In, 1404 01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:37,080 Speaker 1: like this little TV room Marrio with the door clothes, 1405 01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:39,600 Speaker 1: and the kids were all out, We're all playing with 1406 01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:43,240 Speaker 1: each other. And my brother did something that made me 1407 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:48,400 Speaker 1: mad for some reason. And I, um, you know, as 1408 01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:51,320 Speaker 1: a child and an adult, I'm very emotional, very like 1409 01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:55,639 Speaker 1: sensitive and tuned in, and so I was really upset. 1410 01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:58,519 Speaker 1: And the other kids were there, were all older than me, 1411 01:22:58,640 --> 01:23:00,280 Speaker 1: and I think to them it was just like, oh 1412 01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:04,080 Speaker 1: my god, the baby is crying again, and that sort 1413 01:23:04,120 --> 01:23:11,320 Speaker 1: of um dismissiveness. It it um hit me. It deep, deep, 1414 01:23:11,360 --> 01:23:13,760 Speaker 1: deep in my core. And I remember I was I 1415 01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:18,240 Speaker 1: was like freaking out and my sister, my sister said 1416 01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:21,400 Speaker 1: to my brother. I'm the youngest of three. Uh So 1417 01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:24,479 Speaker 1: my sister said to my brother, go get mom and dad. 1418 01:23:24,560 --> 01:23:27,880 Speaker 1: She's you know, she's freaking out. She's like losing it. 1419 01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:31,800 Speaker 1: And uh my brother went in to like get get 1420 01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:35,400 Speaker 1: my parents attention, and he was, you know, like a boy. 1421 01:23:35,479 --> 01:23:38,120 Speaker 1: I feel like he was ten at the time, and 1422 01:23:38,160 --> 01:23:42,439 Speaker 1: he said to my parents. He said, um, uh, mom, Dad, 1423 01:23:42,600 --> 01:23:46,719 Speaker 1: it's that time of the month again. And I didn't know. 1424 01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:55,240 Speaker 1: I didn't know what that meant. He was just making it, Yeah, exactly, 1425 01:23:56,479 --> 01:23:58,320 Speaker 1: it really did not. He clearly did not know what 1426 01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:01,120 Speaker 1: it meant. He heard it off television. Any thought, this 1427 01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:04,519 Speaker 1: is when women get crazy once a month. Well, I thought, 1428 01:24:04,640 --> 01:24:06,600 Speaker 1: I took that to me. I took that to me, 1429 01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:10,640 Speaker 1: and here we go, Mary's having her you know, monthly 1430 01:24:10,720 --> 01:24:13,320 Speaker 1: freak out and like like that was the thing the 1431 01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:17,559 Speaker 1: family talked about and I got so mad that I 1432 01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:22,479 Speaker 1: project ale vomited. Oh my god. Well that's probably why 1433 01:24:22,520 --> 01:24:24,439 Speaker 1: you're afraid to get angry. You don't want to ruin 1434 01:24:24,520 --> 01:24:28,360 Speaker 1: all your things. That's a power. Find a silk sin first. 1435 01:24:28,520 --> 01:24:32,920 Speaker 1: I don't want to ruin You've decorated your home with silks. 1436 01:24:32,920 --> 01:24:35,000 Speaker 1: You don't want to be projectile vomiting on them. I 1437 01:24:35,000 --> 01:24:38,720 Speaker 1: think it's actually, if you had to be incapable of 1438 01:24:38,760 --> 01:24:41,200 Speaker 1: expressing an emotion, anger is probably a good one to 1439 01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:44,759 Speaker 1: be incapable of accessing and expressing. It feels like there's 1440 01:24:45,320 --> 01:24:48,439 Speaker 1: an aspect of myself that I'm not able to know 1441 01:24:49,280 --> 01:24:52,800 Speaker 1: and not able to like, um, have the courage of 1442 01:24:52,840 --> 01:24:56,439 Speaker 1: my convictions, I think because of it because I don't, Uh, 1443 01:24:56,479 --> 01:24:59,720 Speaker 1: It's not like I really have to dig to like 1444 01:24:59,800 --> 01:25:01,519 Speaker 1: get to the place where I want to protect a 1445 01:25:01,640 --> 01:25:03,720 Speaker 1: vomit again, you know what I mean. And I just 1446 01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:08,880 Speaker 1: want to get back. I just want to get bad, 1447 01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:12,400 Speaker 1: I know. But you you do like you lose control. 1448 01:25:12,479 --> 01:25:15,080 Speaker 1: Like I think part of anger for anybody is losing control, 1449 01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:18,200 Speaker 1: and that is that is like a little scary. Yeah, 1450 01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:22,759 Speaker 1: I feel like also it's tough when you are someone 1451 01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 1: who um has had to hide emotions because it reveals you. 1452 01:25:27,479 --> 01:25:29,760 Speaker 1: Um Like, when I was younger and still to this day, 1453 01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:32,200 Speaker 1: when I get angry and I feel like I've expressed anger, 1454 01:25:32,439 --> 01:25:34,800 Speaker 1: something i'll do a lot to a lot of people 1455 01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:36,960 Speaker 1: is be like, was I justified in doing that? Was 1456 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:39,080 Speaker 1: that okay? Like? Was I too much? Was this? Because 1457 01:25:39,160 --> 01:25:42,479 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm used to hiding myself in an 1458 01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:46,720 Speaker 1: emotional state because I think it reveals or it revealed 1459 01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:49,360 Speaker 1: a truth about me, which probably is gayness that I 1460 01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:53,000 Speaker 1: was afraid of as a young person. Nowadays, it's like, 1461 01:25:53,040 --> 01:25:55,040 Speaker 1: I'll try to take space because I think what you're 1462 01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:58,760 Speaker 1: saying is important. It is important to know when to 1463 01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:01,280 Speaker 1: put your foot down and for yourself and stand up 1464 01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:05,519 Speaker 1: for yourself. But I am seldom without the question after 1465 01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:08,360 Speaker 1: of was I justified in the way I behave Oh 1466 01:26:08,400 --> 01:26:11,240 Speaker 1: my God constantly? Yeah, I feel that same way, and 1467 01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:14,479 Speaker 1: I don't know how to. And that's interesting to hear 1468 01:26:14,479 --> 01:26:17,519 Speaker 1: you talk about that, because I I really thought that 1469 01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:21,000 Speaker 1: that was something that most people are able to, like 1470 01:26:21,439 --> 01:26:24,960 Speaker 1: get angry and feel confident in that emotion and how 1471 01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:28,800 Speaker 1: it's expressed, because it truly every emotion. I'm like, was 1472 01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:32,880 Speaker 1: that too much? Like? Well, you were told that it 1473 01:26:33,120 --> 01:26:35,519 Speaker 1: was at a formative age, So I don't think. I 1474 01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:40,200 Speaker 1: don't think it's you obviously have this memory which has 1475 01:26:40,240 --> 01:26:43,840 Speaker 1: imprinted on you, which is you got so upset, and 1476 01:26:43,880 --> 01:26:47,000 Speaker 1: what everyone's response to it was don't take her seriously, 1477 01:26:47,439 --> 01:26:49,720 Speaker 1: which is which is something that could stay with you 1478 01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:51,840 Speaker 1: for a long time. And so it's honestly good that 1479 01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:55,599 Speaker 1: you remember where it came from, because that's that's everything, 1480 01:26:55,720 --> 01:26:59,519 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, yeah, did you know this was therapy? 1481 01:27:01,640 --> 01:27:06,320 Speaker 1: How much do I owe you? Guys? Wow? Okay, Bowen 1482 01:27:06,400 --> 01:27:09,240 Speaker 1: is a centrist. I was going to do it for free. No, 1483 01:27:09,479 --> 01:27:15,439 Speaker 1: I want four hundred. No. One has recently become more 1484 01:27:15,439 --> 01:27:18,679 Speaker 1: comfortable with his own anger. I love that I have, 1485 01:27:19,160 --> 01:27:23,800 Speaker 1: I have, but I would have like but my my 1486 01:27:23,880 --> 01:27:26,120 Speaker 1: relationship with anger is weird because I've always been told 1487 01:27:26,240 --> 01:27:27,840 Speaker 1: within the family at least, that it's like you get 1488 01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:30,160 Speaker 1: that from your dad. You get that, you get that 1489 01:27:30,200 --> 01:27:32,000 Speaker 1: from your dad, and my dad when he gets angry, 1490 01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:36,000 Speaker 1: it's wild And when I get angry, it's even wilder. 1491 01:27:36,479 --> 01:27:39,880 Speaker 1: And I fully lose control and like I will go 1492 01:27:39,960 --> 01:27:43,439 Speaker 1: through I have I think in like my teen years 1493 01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:46,559 Speaker 1: gone through like rage blackouts, not where I would hurt anybody, 1494 01:27:46,600 --> 01:27:51,360 Speaker 1: but where I would like just my eyes leave my 1495 01:27:51,400 --> 01:27:55,760 Speaker 1: body because I was so so, so so so angry. Angrying. Yeah, 1496 01:27:56,040 --> 01:28:01,439 Speaker 1: it's overpowering. It's an overpowering emotion. Yeah, and you lose control. 1497 01:28:02,040 --> 01:28:05,360 Speaker 1: For me, that's what's scary. Do you find that as 1498 01:28:05,400 --> 01:28:08,200 Speaker 1: an actor, um, while maybe anger is not your thing, 1499 01:28:08,280 --> 01:28:12,160 Speaker 1: do you find the other emotions easier to access, because, like, 1500 01:28:12,160 --> 01:28:16,400 Speaker 1: like I, I actually quite there. Yeah. Your character in 1501 01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:21,280 Speaker 1: the movie is a comedic role, but there's actually quite 1502 01:28:21,320 --> 01:28:25,600 Speaker 1: an emotional um turn that happens towards the end of 1503 01:28:25,600 --> 01:28:29,080 Speaker 1: the movie, which honestly caught me by surprise because you 1504 01:28:29,160 --> 01:28:31,479 Speaker 1: do such a good job at blending in and just 1505 01:28:31,520 --> 01:28:36,120 Speaker 1: being comedic relief that it's It's like when something big 1506 01:28:36,160 --> 01:28:38,519 Speaker 1: happens to your character, it's like, of course this character 1507 01:28:38,560 --> 01:28:41,840 Speaker 1: feels this way. Of course this character has access to 1508 01:28:41,880 --> 01:28:44,679 Speaker 1: the entire spectrum of human emotion. And you know, whether 1509 01:28:44,720 --> 01:28:46,559 Speaker 1: it's because she's the youngest in the family and hasn't 1510 01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:49,840 Speaker 1: been taken seriously and maybe that's something you identify with 1511 01:28:50,040 --> 01:28:53,960 Speaker 1: the middle child rather sorry m but being the being 1512 01:28:54,080 --> 01:28:58,920 Speaker 1: the one that that wasn't taken seriously um has repercussions 1513 01:28:58,920 --> 01:29:01,760 Speaker 1: on the character and her emotional moment. Not to give 1514 01:29:01,840 --> 01:29:05,000 Speaker 1: too much away, but um, but do you find as 1515 01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:08,160 Speaker 1: an actor like that it's easy for you to access 1516 01:29:08,960 --> 01:29:12,439 Speaker 1: emotions like is it for me? For me, it's tough. 1517 01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:14,760 Speaker 1: For for me. It's like sometimes I feel like that's 1518 01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:16,719 Speaker 1: what makes me someone that's very good at playing close 1519 01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:19,519 Speaker 1: to myself. But then when it comes to playing other emotions, 1520 01:29:19,520 --> 01:29:23,000 Speaker 1: I find that to be a lot harder than it looks. Yeah, 1521 01:29:23,240 --> 01:29:25,680 Speaker 1: I I am able to dip into it, but I 1522 01:29:25,720 --> 01:29:30,559 Speaker 1: think I'm generally a very very sensitive person. Um, it 1523 01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:33,480 Speaker 1: doesn't take me, it doesn't take much for me to 1524 01:29:33,479 --> 01:29:38,000 Speaker 1: to um get there, get there. But I also think 1525 01:29:38,040 --> 01:29:42,280 Speaker 1: that I have I really feel a a level of 1526 01:29:42,320 --> 01:29:45,760 Speaker 1: safety when I'm playing a role to like to go 1527 01:29:45,840 --> 01:29:51,920 Speaker 1: to places that in my life I might not necessary to, like, um, 1528 01:29:52,160 --> 01:29:56,280 Speaker 1: like within VIEP like that that character was so annoyed 1529 01:29:56,320 --> 01:29:59,559 Speaker 1: at everything and that that's not me at all, but 1530 01:29:59,640 --> 01:30:02,200 Speaker 1: I it was so fun. It's almost like I get 1531 01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:05,280 Speaker 1: to exercise those feelings as long as I have the 1532 01:30:05,320 --> 01:30:09,280 Speaker 1: safety of like it's okay, this is a character. Yeah, 1533 01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:11,160 Speaker 1: it's it's like babysitting or it's like it's like being 1534 01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:14,280 Speaker 1: in an aunt with like your nieces and nephews were like, 1535 01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:16,439 Speaker 1: it's just temperary. I get to hand back the child 1536 01:30:17,120 --> 01:30:22,200 Speaker 1: after this is done, right right? Yeah? Maybe, yeah, definitely. 1537 01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:23,800 Speaker 1: I think I think for sure it's like you don't 1538 01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:27,200 Speaker 1: have ownership over what you've done because it wasn't exactly 1539 01:30:27,720 --> 01:30:29,760 Speaker 1: just like it's not your kid and it doesn't matter 1540 01:30:29,800 --> 01:30:31,640 Speaker 1: what happens when you watch it, right, that's what you 1541 01:30:31,680 --> 01:30:35,280 Speaker 1: were saying. Yes, I'm like Hugh Grant in the undoing. 1542 01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:38,360 Speaker 1: Um you know what, Okay, I just this is kind 1543 01:30:38,360 --> 01:30:40,080 Speaker 1: of this is just an acting thing that I has 1544 01:30:40,120 --> 01:30:42,519 Speaker 1: really resonated with me. Recently. I was watching interviews with 1545 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:48,360 Speaker 1: Anya Taylor Joy. Yeah, and I think they were there 1546 01:30:48,600 --> 01:30:51,160 Speaker 1: someone was asking her like what her process was or whatever, 1547 01:30:51,760 --> 01:30:53,439 Speaker 1: and she was just like, you know, like I used 1548 01:30:53,439 --> 01:30:54,840 Speaker 1: to be really concerned about like and this is what 1549 01:30:54,880 --> 01:30:56,439 Speaker 1: I'm concerned about all the time, and this is so 1550 01:30:56,479 --> 01:30:58,880 Speaker 1: shallow and stupid. But whenever I'm like on camera, I'm like, 1551 01:30:59,360 --> 01:31:02,920 Speaker 1: is my face doing the right thing? And then I've 1552 01:31:02,920 --> 01:31:05,280 Speaker 1: had this thought constantly. But then she wasn't on the tylor. 1553 01:31:05,320 --> 01:31:07,400 Speaker 1: Joe wasn't directly addressing this, but she was like I 1554 01:31:07,439 --> 01:31:10,479 Speaker 1: had an acting teacher tell me once, as long as 1555 01:31:10,479 --> 01:31:12,439 Speaker 1: you have the thought, you're you're going to do the 1556 01:31:12,520 --> 01:31:14,719 Speaker 1: right thing as long as you are, which I guess 1557 01:31:14,800 --> 01:31:16,880 Speaker 1: is like is that Meisner, I guess or whatever. I 1558 01:31:16,880 --> 01:31:21,200 Speaker 1: don't know what it does sound mesnary Um. Yeah, that 1559 01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:23,600 Speaker 1: that you don't need to control any other aspect is 1560 01:31:23,680 --> 01:31:28,320 Speaker 1: just like just organically be in the moment and just yeah, exactly, 1561 01:31:28,439 --> 01:31:30,920 Speaker 1: just like supplanned the thought into your head of like 1562 01:31:30,960 --> 01:31:33,680 Speaker 1: I'm angry, I'm going to think of an I'm going 1563 01:31:33,720 --> 01:31:36,479 Speaker 1: to think of something that would make this character angry 1564 01:31:36,520 --> 01:31:38,320 Speaker 1: and then be angry, and that's going to that's going 1565 01:31:38,400 --> 01:31:43,120 Speaker 1: to translate, and that'll sell it. She is, she is 1566 01:31:43,160 --> 01:31:46,840 Speaker 1: the queen of you. You look at her. She has 1567 01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:50,000 Speaker 1: the queen of gambits. First of all, we should say 1568 01:31:50,320 --> 01:31:54,200 Speaker 1: like she really doesn't. And I say this in a 1569 01:31:54,320 --> 01:31:57,160 Speaker 1: in a in a way where I'm so impressed by her, 1570 01:31:57,280 --> 01:32:02,400 Speaker 1: but doesn't take her much to transfer a lot, you 1571 01:32:02,400 --> 01:32:05,880 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like she is truly brilliant micro expressions. 1572 01:32:05,920 --> 01:32:08,840 Speaker 1: She's she really is. Yeah, yeah, she's amazing in the 1573 01:32:08,880 --> 01:32:12,280 Speaker 1: queen's game. But famously Bowen took me to see Thoroughbred's 1574 01:32:12,320 --> 01:32:15,240 Speaker 1: a few years ago and I was blown away. But 1575 01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:22,559 Speaker 1: she was so good. Oh, it's really good. And the 1576 01:32:22,600 --> 01:32:24,320 Speaker 1: other girl is really good to I believe her name 1577 01:32:24,360 --> 01:32:27,280 Speaker 1: is Alicia Cook. That I believe that could that could 1578 01:32:27,280 --> 01:32:31,240 Speaker 1: be wrong. She's excellent, she's fantastic. But it's like just 1579 01:32:31,320 --> 01:32:37,760 Speaker 1: a really good, really tense, um funny, dark dark, dark, 1580 01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:41,639 Speaker 1: dark comedy that they are amazing, and they played teen 1581 01:32:41,680 --> 01:32:46,840 Speaker 1: girls who um horse girls. They delay teen horse girls 1582 01:32:46,840 --> 01:32:49,360 Speaker 1: who get together after several years of being apart, after 1583 01:32:49,400 --> 01:32:51,800 Speaker 1: one of them has been in a juvenile detention facility 1584 01:32:52,040 --> 01:32:54,639 Speaker 1: and the other one, who's continued to live her life, 1585 01:32:54,640 --> 01:32:57,439 Speaker 1: starts tutoring her, and it's about their relationship and what 1586 01:32:57,479 --> 01:33:01,360 Speaker 1: they decided to do together. So it's really really, Oh 1587 01:33:01,439 --> 01:33:05,000 Speaker 1: my gosh, you had me at Teen Horse Girl. Yeah. 1588 01:33:06,040 --> 01:33:11,479 Speaker 1: But uh, speaking of speaking of Teen Horse Girl, I mean, wait, 1589 01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:13,479 Speaker 1: one thing, Wait one thing I wanted to I wanted 1590 01:33:13,520 --> 01:33:17,960 Speaker 1: to just bring up you want to interlocking I did.

So that's why we have the brilliance. 1593 01:33:24,240 --> 01:33:30,920 Speaker 1: I say, she understands the process. Yeah, she is aware 1594 01:33:31,000 --> 01:33:33,720 Speaker 1: that she has trouble accessing her anger because of the 1595 01:33:33,760 --> 01:33:38,639 Speaker 1: interlocking background. I mean, you're not wrong, you're not wrong 1596 01:33:38,680 --> 01:33:42,160 Speaker 1: about that. Um yeah I did.
