1
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: And I invited you here. I thought I made myself

2
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: perfectly clear. When you're a guest to my home, you

3
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: gotta come to me empty. And I said, no, guess

4
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: you're presences presents enough. I already had too much stuff,

5
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 1: So how do you dare to surbey me?

6
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 2: Welcome to, I said, no gift, temperature wineger. We're in

7
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 2: the backyard, which is such a lovely feeling. You know,

8
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 2: it's been a minute since we've been back here, largely

9
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 2: because it's summer. But it's a pre noon recording, so

10
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 2: we'll only be sweating about halfway through the episode. For now.

11
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 2: I feel great that's going on. I woke up feeling

12
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: very ambitious this morning, but that's over now and I

13
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 2: got nothing accomplished. Last night I had a dream I

14
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 2: went on a cruise which was unbelievably stressful. What an experience.

15
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 2: And that leads us to now that's my day. That's

16
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 2: me before eleven am, and I think we should get

17
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 2: into the podcast. Today's guest is absolutely wonderful. It's Neil Campbell. Neil,

18
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 2: Welcome to.

19
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 3: I said, no gifts, thank you for having me. Oh,

20
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 3: of course, how are you feeling? I'm feeling excited. I'm

21
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 3: excited to be here. Are you warm? I'm warm, but

22
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 3: not uncomfortable.

23
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 2: Okay, great, you're in a summary. Look I like this.

24
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you know, gotta break out the short sleeves.

25
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 2: I have a very similar to this. I almost wore

26
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 2: it this morning, and that would have a disaster for

27
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 2: the podcasts.

28
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 3: Is it from Gant?

29
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 2: It's not. Wait, what is that?

30
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 3: I don't I don't know if they existed anymore, but

31
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 3: it was some brand that was around for a minute.

32
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 2: How do you spell that? G A N T Gant.

33
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 3: Gant, Yeah, and they had a store and it was

34
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 3: Gant Rugger or something like that.

35
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 2: Gant is not a pleasant It doesn't sound like clothing.

36
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 3: To know, and I'm very possibly mispronouncing it Gaunt Gaunt.

37
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 3: It might have been a very soft g and I

38
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 3: don't know.

39
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 2: Gante sounds like they sell drills or something. Gaunt it

40
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 2: sounds too.

41
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 3: GoF yeah, or or too kind of super skinny or right.

42
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 3: And Jant, yeah, well, now we know they didn't take off.

43
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 2: Jant sounds like a discount retailer, maybe kind of a

44
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 2: ross competitor. Maybe I'll open a Jant. Ross is popping

45
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 2: up everywhere there's a I just saw a new Ross

46
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 2: is opening. Really, I don't know what the epidemic of

47
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 2: Ross is, but I think it's the worst of those

48
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,399
Speaker 2: type of discount stores.

49
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 3: I'm not I haven't. I'm actually not sure I've been

50
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,119
Speaker 3: into ave never been in a Ross. No, and I'm

51
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,679
Speaker 3: a stranger to a discount store, but I just don't

52
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,399
Speaker 3: know that my path has led me to a Roth.

53
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 2: Have you been in a TJ Max?

54
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: Oh?

55
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 4: Yeah?

56
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 2: Have you been in a Marshalls?

57
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 3: Yes? I think so.

58
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 2: Okay, and then let's see. Then we've got nordsomb Rack

59
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 2: is a little bit sure, the top tier. And then

60
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: we have a Burlington coat factory, which they don't call

61
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 2: a coat factory anymore, right.

62
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 3: But I think we have both. Both Burlington and TJ

63
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 3: Max were near my high school. Oh sure, I've only

64
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 3: popped into both of those.

65
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: We're around back to school shopping season. Was that like

66
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 2: an annual thing for you?

67
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 3: Yes, I guess so a little bit, But I it

68
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 3: was probably years before I really was paying much attention

69
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 3: to what I was wearing, So it was more of like, okay, annied,

70
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 3: like one new shirt, that's cool, this, you know, my

71
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 3: new Union Bay shirt.

72
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 2: Or something Union Bay. God bless they Union Bay. And

73
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 2: there was another one that was like Ocean Pacific.

74
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, yeah, maybe yeah, Union BAYFK was just

75
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 3: in department stores, yes, as opposed to having its own

76
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 3: like brick and mortar.

77
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 2: Right, I feel like that was in Mervyn's. Did you

78
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: have Mervyns?

79
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 3: Where are you from? I'm from mostly Fairfax, Virginia.

80
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 2: Okay, so Murvins may not have gotten to I.

81
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 3: Don't think I had Mervyn's. We had J. C. Penny

82
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 3: and Lord and Taylor, and J j C. Penny was

83
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 3: our in Seares. We're our two department stores, Lord and Taylor.

84
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,280
Speaker 3: I've always assumed as maybe because of Anne Taylor. Now

85
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 3: this is why I'm so stupid. I just assumed it

86
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 3: was a women's only store. But well, well I don't

87
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 3: even know that. I just remember fair Oaks Mall having

88
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 3: sort of four kind of three or four different InCor

89
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 3: stores ancor department stores, you know that sort of led

90
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 3: you in. And I don't actually think we were a

91
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,160
Speaker 3: Lord and Taylor family. So it's possible they could have

92
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 3: been telling, you know, lumber for all of them. But

93
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 3: JAC Penny and series we hit up.

94
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 2: Hot least, do you have anything to say about Lord

95
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 2: and Taylor? Do you know anything about this company?

96
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 3: Looks like they're still around.

97
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 5: It seems they do make men's clothes.

98
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 3: Okay, Oh so it's kind of more of a.

99
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:01,480
Speaker 2: They only had.

100
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a department store.

101
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 5: I always thought of it as a department store, like

102
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 5: a little fancier than Nordstrum Lord my brain strum, But

103
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 5: that's you know, that's my Colorado like brain talking. So

104
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 5: who's no, who knows if that is an accurate you know.

105
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 2: Right, Nordstrom was the ceiling as far as a fancy department.

106
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 3: Store, we do not have a Nordstrom.

107
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a big one. And I don't think

108
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 2: I ever got any back to school clothing at Nordstrom.

109
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 2: Are you are all the malls in your hometown gone?

110
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 3: I don't know. I haven't. Everyone moved away after I

111
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 3: went to college, but I don't think they're all gone.

112
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 3: I think I think Fair Oaks Small might still be kicking.

113
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 3: But I guess I don't know how I would have

114
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:46,279
Speaker 3: found out otherwise.

115
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 2: Where is Where is your family ended up?

116
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 3: My mom now lives in Arizona, Okay, and my brother

117
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,280
Speaker 3: lives in Seattle, Washington. When I went to college, I

118
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 3: went to the University of Iowa. And then when I

119
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 3: was there, my dad had worked with a civilian but

120
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 3: worked for the military, had been at the Pentagon.

121
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: Wow.

122
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 3: Then went to an army based in Germany. So then

123
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 3: I was in college. They were in Germany. Wow. Then

124
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 3: they moved nearby brother and he was living in Portland, Orgon.

125
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 3: They moved there.

126
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 2: So yeah, so you were moving around a lot as

127
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 2: a kid.

128
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 3: I would say zero to ten. Yes. I was born

129
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 3: in Atlanta, New Jersey, Virginia. Lived in Japan for a

130
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 3: few years on an army base where in Japan, an

131
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 3: army base called Camp Zama that's near Tokyo. Oh. Wow.

132
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 3: And then back to Virginia. And so then Virginia ten

133
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 3: to eighteen.

134
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 2: Did you pick up any Japanese?

135
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 3: Not really, it was an American Army base.

136
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 2: Oh right.

137
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 3: We would learn how to like sing some songs where

138
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 3: we had a class called culture. We'd like paint kanji

139
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 3: and learned some phrases, but not conversational.

140
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 2: Can you remember any of the songs?

141
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 3: Well, there's that one and I don't want to offend,

142
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 3: but it's like the like Sakura.

143
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: I was like that same melody of every there's like

144
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 2: a million songs and I feel like there's a French

145
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 2: version of that.

146
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably Jacques. Yes, is that how you profess?

147
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 2: I mean my apologies to our French listeners.

148
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 3: But yeah. One stayed with the Japanese family for a

149
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 3: few days once and then their son came and stayed

150
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 3: with us.

151
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 2: And have you been back as an adult?

152
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 3: I went back in twenty eighteen.

153
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 2: How was that experience?

154
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 3: It was fun? It was great. Where did you visit

155
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 3: Tokyo and Kyoto?

156
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 2: Okay?

157
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 3: But went to the studio ghibli Oh my god.

158
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 2: I tried to get into that.

159
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 3: It's not the theme park thing that existed. It was

160
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 3: before that, right, it was just like the museum tour

161
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 3: thing whatever.

162
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 2: It is impossible to get into now he did.

163
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 3: It's part of a tour group. So it was like

164
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 3: a whole kind of took up our day. But it

165
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 3: was and you know, went there, Wes Anderson was walking

166
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 3: around in a white suit.

167
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 2: He's been trapped there for ten years. Fascinating. Wow, what

168
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:46,239
Speaker 2: a sighting.

169
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think it was. I think it was

170
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 3: in the country to promote Isle of Dogs.

171
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 2: Oh that makes sense, and Isle of Dogs there's some

172
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 2: Japanese element in Isle of Dogs. I think. I think

173
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 2: you're right, Yeah, didn't the movie didn't make much of

174
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 2: an effect on that. My apologies to Wes Anderson. Wow,

175
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 2: were there any highlights of the trip to Japan?

176
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 3: Mostly just some of the like nostalgia, like well, I

177
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 3: don't know that I was in this spot, but of

178
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 3: kind of feeling like, oh, I remember this sort of

179
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 3: vibe or this type of vending machine on the corner.

180
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 3: Little details like that.

181
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 2: The vending machine culture there is the Yeah for vending

182
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 2: machines not to seem trashy is such an achievement for

183
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 2: a country, and they're everywhere. Yeah, and none of them

184
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 2: seem like junk. They're just kind of like these lovely

185
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 2: little magical things around that you can get all kinds

186
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 2: of I mean, I don't think I bought anything out

187
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 2: of them, but it's just nice to see one in

188
00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: the wild.

189
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 3: Yeah. My brother and I used to get these things

190
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,839
Speaker 3: called the Gundam cards when I was a kid. I

191
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 3: think I'm sure there was a game you could play,

192
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 3: because they have like hit points or something on it.

193
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,559
Speaker 3: I'm sure there was some Pokemon esque thing, but we

194
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 3: didn't understand that, right. We just like these little cards

195
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 3: you could get out of a vending machine that had

196
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 3: like drawings of robots. Robots, yeah and so, and I

197
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 3: still have my big stack of them.

198
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 2: Right. Every child has to go through a stage where

199
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 2: they want a lot of cars. Yeah, summer. Yeah. I

200
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 2: was just back home in Utah and talking to my cousin.

201
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 2: He was in Japan as a kid. Bought a Pokemon card.

202
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 2: In them all it's now worth like twenty thousand dollars.

203
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 3: Jeez, I gotta check my gun Dam cards.

204
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 2: I know you should. Actually I had any of these things.

205
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 2: It's what a shame that I'm just bad at investing

206
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 2: in anything, I guess. I mean, wow, but do you

207
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 2: hold onto that card? Is that a bubble that eventually

208
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 2: bursts or does the card just get more and more?

209
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 3: Probably sell it. If I had a twenty thousand dollars, Oh,

210
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 3: I made my own Gundam card. And then my dad

211
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,959
Speaker 3: had like a lamination machine. Oh my god. I think

212
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 3: it was back in maybe this is still in Japan.

213
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 3: Probably was at work here. I was able to laminate.

214
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 3: So I drew a little robot and for his skills,

215
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 3: I said, he has a good sense of humor.

216
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: Like a giant mech that.

217
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 3: Yeah.

218
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was kind of a skills parties. Yeah do

219
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 2: you still have the card? I do.

220
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,679
Speaker 3: It's on my fridge right now. Wow, you should try

221
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 3: selling it. Yeah, maybe that was very well.

222
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: Find out that it's your retirement. That's credible. Do you

223
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 2: travel much or is Japan just of no?

224
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say travel quite a bit.

225
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 2: Where have you been recently?

226
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 3: Let's see, went to Madrid last December?

227
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 2: How was Madrid? I recently had a friend just tell

228
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 2: me flat out, you won't like going to Spain because

229
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 2: eating there they're because of tap us. It's just you

230
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 2: never really feel like you're getting a full meal.

231
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 3: Well, I just keep shoving them in my mouth and

232
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 3: I am full. So that wasn't really an issue I encountered.

233
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm pescatarian, so a lot of the ham

234
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 3: eating culture I didn't but found plenty. I mean there's

235
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 3: plenty of good seafood and vegetarian options around. So I

236
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,319
Speaker 3: had a great time as a traveler.

237
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 2: Are you like just food focused or are you like

238
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 2: going out and wandering around that kind of Well?

239
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 3: I like wandering around, but I think food is kind

240
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 3: of a a lot of places I've gone, We've gone

241
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 3: has been a like booking a food walking tour kind

242
00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 3: of a thing has been did that in like Mexico

243
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 3: City and Dublin and places you know where you kind

244
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 3: of get to sample different tours just online online, Yeah,

245
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 3: and you just how do you vet them? I should

246
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 3: say my partner Frank Gillespie is the one who's mostly

247
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 3: trust friends. Yeah, yeah, I'm vett.

248
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like she probably has good standards. And

249
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 2: it's because now finding food anywhere, because the Internet has

250
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 2: is fundamentally broken. It's so difficult to find real recommendations

251
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 2: to anything.

252
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, I don't know how she's googling this, but

253
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 3: I haven't complained. I was putting in the work, Yeah,

254
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 3: just putting in the work.

255
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 2: On trips. I feel like, especially international trips, there's always

256
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 2: kind of a breaking point for me where there's a

257
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 2: real low point. Do you go through that experience?

258
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,959
Speaker 3: Yes, fully, I mean sometimes we're just like, oh, this

259
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 3: is one day too many, right, and maybe they're still

260
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 3: another day or two to go. This is all we

261
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 3: needed to do right in this city.

262
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 2: I feel like I've decided that about ten days is

263
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 2: where I cap it off. Eleven or twelve days. I'm like,

264
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 2: oh no, I think that's right. I need to be

265
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 2: home now. This is just I'm enjoying myself, but I'm

266
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 2: just completely depleted and stressing out every moment of it.

267
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 3: I also get to a city and I'm like, on

268
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 3: day one, I'm like, well, let's go to the I

269
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 3: know I want to hit this museum, and let's not

270
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 3: delay because what if something comes up and we can't, right,

271
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 3: I mean, do the museum or the restaurant or whatever

272
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 3: on like the first twenty four hours.

273
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a bit. That's actually a huge mistake.

274
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 3: Yes, And then you kind of get to day three

275
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 3: and you're like, well, I guess if we could just

276
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 3: go wander around this part of town or something, and

277
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 3: sometimes that's great and other times not as much.

278
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, that uh interesting. I've never really thought about that,

279
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 2: but yeah, I just ruined everything almost from the beginning.

280
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 2: And then I guess that's just a metaphor for my

281
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 2: entire life.

282
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 3: I was like, I don't want to miss Guernica, so

283
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 3: I gotta go to day one and the PRADU was

284
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 3: not far.

285
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 2: Do you have any vacation goals, any places you'd like

286
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 2: to go that you haven't been.

287
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 3: Yes, I've never been to this in hemisphere. Okay, so Australia,

288
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:07,559
Speaker 3: South America, anywhere, South America, Africa, you know, right, have

289
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 3: gotten below.

290
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,679
Speaker 2: Refuse to go south of the equation.

291
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 3: But I'm usually more of like going to a less

292
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 3: of like a resort beach guy, and more of a

293
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 3: like a.

294
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 2: City, the whole experience of the country kind of thing.

295
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 2: That's more my speed. As well. If I go somewhere

296
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 2: and I'm in just one location the whole time, I

297
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 2: just think, why did I even come here?

298
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 3: Yeah?

299
00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 2: I could have just essentially imagined this at home. Yeah,

300
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 2: I needed to see all kinds of things. And I

301
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 2: don't mind just walking around. Yeah, just especially in Japan,

302
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 2: that's such an easy country to just wander around.

303
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 4: Sure.

304
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,640
Speaker 3: Yeah. Mostly gets stressed about footwear.

305
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 2: Oh interesting, what's your footwear situation while you're traveling.

306
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 3: Well, it's it's kind of the like how many shoes

307
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 3: am I going to pack? And then what kind of

308
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 3: you know, what's a good walking shoe?

309
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 2: First?

310
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 3: And in the kind of year to year, I'm like,

311
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 3: all right, I'm bringing the Hokahs to Portugal and then

312
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 3: then but I should pack some loafers as well. Loafers.

313
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 2: What are you doing with loafers on a vacation just

314
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 2: for a nice dinner, I guess.

315
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 4: So.

316
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean my bar for dressing on a vacation

317
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 2: is so low at this point because I refuse to

318
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 2: check a bag.

319
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

320
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 2: So I mean, I'm probably doing just untold damage on

321
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 2: my body and my back by only wearing vans everywhere

322
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 2: I go, walking fifteen miles a day in vans. But

323
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 2: I'm gonna die either way.

324
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's working for you.

325
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's working absolutely fine. But maybe I should I

326
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 2: don't know. I'd like to get to a point when

327
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,480
Speaker 2: actually I think I'm at the point I need to be.

328
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 2: No check bags, it's a life ruiner.

329
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't really ever check either unless absolutely Forcedill.

330
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the check bag on the way there is

331
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 2: not as big of a deal unless they lose it.

332
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,479
Speaker 2: But on the way back, waiting at a baggage carousel,

333
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 2: worse feeling in the world. You're exhausted, you have like

334
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 2: two hours left to get home. I just don't know

335
00:14:58,800 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 2: why anyone doesn't.

336
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like also when I was a kid,

337
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 3: if we want a vacation, we were checking bags. And

338
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 3: then when I first was an adult and like moved

339
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,040
Speaker 3: to LA but then we go home or something. I

340
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 3: was always like, well, you got to check your bag,

341
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 3: Like it seemed like a luxury to bring a bag

342
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 3: onto a plane. And maybe I just had one giant

343
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 3: suitcase right right. I was like, who are these people

344
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 3: that have these like bring a suitcase on the plane.

345
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 3: It was like a status symbolt, And eventually I realized like, oh,

346
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 3: I can get a small suitcase and do that.

347
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I guess like when I first moved to

348
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 2: LA and i'd go home, I would always First of all,

349
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 2: I was flying on Southwest, which you know, complicated airline,

350
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 2: but you could check a bag for free, and I

351
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 2: was like kind of using it as a stealth way

352
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 2: to move everything else out of my parents' house that

353
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,840
Speaker 2: I haven't already. So it would be like sixty pounds

354
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 2: by the time I got it to the airport, but

355
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 2: it was And now I've got I've moved everything out.

356
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 2: I never need to return. They'll never see me. Forget it,

357
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 2: Mom and Dad. Well, I feel like, you know, as

358
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 2: far as packages go and this kind of thing bringing things,

359
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 2: there's something else I'd like to talk to you about. Yes, Well,

360
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 2: I at least feel like I need to talk to

361
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 2: you about. I was excited to have you today on

362
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 2: the podcast, so excited to be here, and so I said,

363
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 2: no gifts, and so I you know, I assume you

364
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 2: got an email or something. Hopefully you saw the title somewhere,

365
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 2: but I'm now starting to feel like you didn't, because

366
00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 2: you showed up holding what is obviously I mean, any

367
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 2: any idiot could look at this and say that's a gift.

368
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 3: Yes, it's it's pretty stereotypical. Ye, packaging for a gift. Yes,

369
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 3: cartoon character gift.

370
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 2: Yes, in kind of a birthday party wrapping with a

371
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 2: nice little blue bow on top.

372
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 3: Is this for me? It is? And I can explain,

373
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 3: Oh you can. I bought this gift. I saw something

374
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 3: that I thought would be perfect for you, and I

375
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 3: bought this gift months ago, before I was ever booked

376
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 3: on the show, and this has just become the first

377
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 3: opera unity to give it to you till today. Oh

378
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 3: but I I well, I'll give you the story of

379
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 3: why I bought it months ago. But yes, so, so

380
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 3: it was a gift I've just been meaning to give you.

381
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 3: It's an unfortunate coincidence. I'm giving it to you on

382
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 3: your podcast.

383
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 2: Do this often on the podcast, but I'm willing to

384
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 2: open it.

385
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, it's a bobblehead of Vince Scully of the Dodgers,

386
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 3: the Dodger's former broadcaster, former announcer.

387
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 2: Oh so, I mean, I'm really revealing in ignorance. I

388
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 2: just thought this was a baseball player.

389
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 3: No, no, no, he was there, the announcer.

390
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 2: Okay.

391
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 3: I was scrolling through my Instagram, avid follower of yours.

392
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 3: I saw a clap I think you did with Best Show,

393
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 3: and it had extra you behind a mic. Next thing

394
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 3: I scrolled up, I think was an ad for I

395
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,400
Speaker 3: think this bobblehead Night at dot Stadium. But it had

396
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 3: a photo of Vin Scully behind a mic, and I thought,

397
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 3: a young Vin Scully and a Ridger Weineger, aren't.

398
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 1: They.

399
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,959
Speaker 3: I wouldn't say they look the same, but I would.

400
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 3: There are echoes, you know too, especially two photos in

401
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 3: a row behind microphones, right, how fascinating. And I thought,

402
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna get this bobblehead and give it to Bridger,

403
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,400
Speaker 3: because both the fates putting these things back to back.

404
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 3: Am I scroll and the algorithm is one of the

405
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 3: greatest broadcasters of our time. Of course that wanted number

406
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 3: one and two mean being number one, of course, Yes,

407
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 3: I agree. I know nothing about this guy. How long

408
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 3: was he doing this for? He he passed away a

409
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,439
Speaker 3: couple of years ago. I want to say it was

410
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 3: over fifty years. He was like the announcer when like

411
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,919
Speaker 3: Jackie Robinson was on the team, wow, up until and

412
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 3: he was the announcer up until like seven years ago. Maybe, Okay,

413
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 3: so he really did it for a long time, a

414
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 3: sort of legend in the field of sports broadcasting. Maybe

415
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 3: the legend and.

416
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 2: The legend and murdered, I assume murdered in the end. Yeah,

417
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 2: I guess I hit squad.

418
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah enough, Ye, you've got to get the hired

419
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 3: by the Padres. Yeah wow.

420
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 2: So maybe I should start uh commentating on the Dodgers.

421
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 2: I don't see why I shouldn't. I could kind of,

422
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: you know, help you out if you every That's could

423
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 2: be like the launch of the campaign. Yeah, who's doing

424
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 2: it now? Some loser Actually is.

425
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 3: A guy that's kind of quickly risen in the ranks

426
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 3: and now is announced its like football announces. He's a

427
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 3: very popular guy.

428
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 2: TikToker. No, probably, Now I do have TikTok the podcast

429
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 2: does just to post clips of this show.

430
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 3: Here's what I don't have it. And here's my question

431
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 3: that it didn't occur to me until like the last

432
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 3: couple of days. Is it closer to YouTube where like

433
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,719
Speaker 3: most people don't make YouTube videos, they will watch YouTube videos.

434
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 3: Or is it close to Instagram where I think most

435
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 3: people who have Instagram use it at least somewhat right,

436
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 3: you know, in post or is there like a is

437
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 3: there a whole world of content creators and then just

438
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 3: mostly other people?

439
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 2: Just kind such a good question. I mean, the only

440
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 2: things I'm exposed to feel like things that are made

441
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 2: on purpose content rather than like I'm showing you my

442
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 2: kids or whatever. Yeah, but I assume there's got to

443
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,199
Speaker 2: be a whole world of that on there that I

444
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,680
Speaker 2: just have zero interest in, and they've already figured that out.

445
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. I just wonder what percentagy users are making tiktoks?

446
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 4: Right?

447
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 2: Right?

448
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,719
Speaker 3: Do you download it because you think you're going to

449
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 3: make videos?

450
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,919
Speaker 2: I mean I think to watch them, probably eighty percent

451
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 2: of the population under twenty five years old is like, Yes,

452
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 2: that's what I'm going to do. I'm going to make

453
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 2: That's what a career is, which makes me sound like

454
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 2: I'm a thousand years old, but I really feel like

455
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 2: that's the only place people feel like they can make

456
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 2: money anymore is making content out of their real job.

457
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 2: Sometimes it'll be like, oh, I'm an electrician, but now

458
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 2: I'm the fun electrician or whatever. So but I assume

459
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 2: that there are probably just annoying people doing annoying stupid things.

460
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 2: Well I don't assume. I definitely have seen that, but

461
00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 2: more unprofessionally. Yes, yes, where like, of course you're not

462
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 2: going to make it, you are bad at what you're doing.

463
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 2: But I wonder if there are people like bothering their

464
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 2: family to just like it's like the family TikTok.

465
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 3: Following each other.

466
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 2: Good.

467
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 3: I guess I should both something right.

468
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,920
Speaker 2: Which seems like the most stressful thing I could possibly imagine.

469
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was never very good at Twitter, uhlex.

470
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 2: And of course thank you, we'll beep Twitter, and uh.

471
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,520
Speaker 3: It did stress me. I was like, okay, I don't

472
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 3: just naturally come up with a tweet, right, really, I

473
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 3: just like, sweat over is this a funny little sentence?

474
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 3: And you know, maybe made like eighteen ever.

475
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 2: So well, it was very Yeah, it was a stressful

476
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 2: place to be. I think if you wanted to work

477
00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 2: in comedy, if you actually wanted to do it, like

478
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 2: you're like, people are looking at me, and I can't

479
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 2: embarrass myself this, I need to be good at this.

480
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 2: But then you see people who don't have that stress,

481
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,879
Speaker 2: who're just like tweeting every thought they've ever had, and

482
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 2: that's just not how I operate.

483
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 3: Know, I mean, that was what I was like jealous of.

484
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 3: I'd see people that just kind of could like flow

485
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 3: with it, and boy, I wish I had that that

486
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 3: sort of heltered kind of taken totally.

487
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 2: But how are those people in the real world? Are

488
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 2: they annoying?

489
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 3: Some of them are comedians and they figured it out,

490
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 3: you know, they locked in.

491
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 2: And they're confident in themselves on some level.

492
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 3: Of me constantly like no one cares about my take

493
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 3: on this, or like I'm just repeating something I have

494
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 3: nothing new to add to the conversation, which you know

495
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,399
Speaker 3: still is a like he would just looking at like

496
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 3: should I post no one look at me.

497
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,199
Speaker 2: To That's how I feel where I'm like, I'll get

498
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,719
Speaker 2: on any of these things and everyone I know has

499
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 2: already posted about it one hundred times. I'm like, what

500
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 2: am I doing?

501
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 3: I feel like I have like a you don't have

502
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 3: anything to add to the conversation. Someone's already said something.

503
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 3: You don't need to repeat it, you know. But that's

504
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 3: I'm sure, a horrible attitude in many regards. And it

505
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 3: makes sense in like a writer's room or something, shouldn't

506
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,560
Speaker 3: be applied to every aspect of life.

507
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that is how I was on Twitter most

508
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 2: of my experiences, Like, well, I'm just not going to

509
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 2: tweet about the oscars. I don't care. Everyone else is

510
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 2: already doing that all the time. Yes, so I'll just

511
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 2: take the night off. But some people just love making

512
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 2: quips about the thing that everyone's making.

513
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,119
Speaker 3: Quips're not like me, Well, let me make sure no

514
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 3: one else has made this joke already, Like yeah, I'll

515
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 3: just be the fortieth person to make this joke.

516
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 2: Maybe if I started drinking, that would help, I don't know,

517
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 2: loosen me up a little bit. I need to drink

518
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 2: to get on Instagram.

519
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:38,879
Speaker 3: Yeah I should. I should have brought your liquor.

520
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 2: That's only happened once on this podcast, and I had

521
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 2: a little sip and got very drunk on a lease

522
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 2: was scared. Everyone was like got to get him in

523
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,880
Speaker 2: the house. It was dangerous. But maybe I will start

524
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 2: drinking to be online. I think that that's not the

525
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 2: worst idea at this point.

526
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 3: It makes sense.

527
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 2: Oh.

528
00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 3: The other thing I want to say about this body

529
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 3: well yeah, barely talked about is if you don't like it.

530
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 2: But where's your receipt?

531
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 3: But you do want another bobblehead you in any night

532
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 3: that there is a bobblehead night at Dodger Stadium, there

533
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 3: will be people outside the stadium as you're leaving who

534
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 3: are like trade bobbleheads and interesting because they want whatever

535
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 3: the new one is. I'll probably have one from a

536
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 3: previous game that maybe isn't you know, and in demand

537
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:24,919
Speaker 3: value right, and so you can maybe just swap it.

538
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 2: So there's a whole culture of that going on. Oh yeah,

539
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 2: there's something for everybody.

540
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can probably go trade this for like a

541
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 3: tyler Glass now bobble.

542
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,080

Speaker 2: are after it and making their life about it. Yes, point,

547
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 2: which good for them. It hasn't happened to me yet,

548
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 2: but it could. Yeah, this could be the start of something.

549

Speaker 2: I would love. I would love for my life to

551
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,200
Speaker 2: take a turn where people are like, remember when he

552
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 2: got that bobblehead and then he was just only buying

553
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 2: baseball bobble that's the specific. I've never been to a

554
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 2: Dodgers game. The traffic, cologne terrifying.

555
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 3: I live about a mile from the stadium, so I

556
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 3: will walk there. Oh, that's a healthy happen and it's

557

Speaker 2: A baseball game?

559
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 3: About two and a half hours? Okay, maybe they made

560
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 3: a few rule changes a few years ago to shortened games.

561
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,400
Speaker 3: Oh and it worked, and so.

562
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,640
Speaker 2: Some editing is good for there.

563
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 3: They're kind of bringing down the how long.

564
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 2: Were they getting over?

565
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 3: Three oh three?

568
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:29,239
Speaker 3: I know.

569
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 2: It's just everyone thinks the thing they're doing should just

570
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 2: go on forever.

571
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is the amount. People are like get mad

572
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 3: though about like The Brutalists runtime or any movie that

573
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 3: has a long run time, and then they're like, well,

574
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 3: the Dodgers play one hundred and sixty two Brutalists.

575
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 2: A year, you know, like you know, everything should be

576
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,360
Speaker 2: measured and Brutalists. Yeah, I've only seen the first half

577
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 2: of The Brutalist because I'll only see the first half

578
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 2: of a three hour movie, So I don't know what happens.

579
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 2: But I had a lovely time and left.

580
00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,359
Speaker 3: Oh but you missed Felicity Jones.

581
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I've got to get back to the

582
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 2: I'm getting in the car now.

583
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll try to find a seventy billimeter projector.

584
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 2: I should hop on. I need to finish Bows Afraid

585
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 2: in that or at least skim through. And I had

586
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 2: nothing against the movies except for the fact they were

587
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 2: too long.

588
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 3: I've done a few of the like eight hour Hungarian

589
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 3: movie you have, Yeah.

590
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 2: And you sat through the whole thing? Were you on adderall?

591
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 3: No? No, well, I do think is it santane? It

592
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,919
Speaker 3: spelled satan tango? Okay, so tend to go. I don't know.

593
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 3: I think I broke that one up.

594
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 2: But how long is that one?

595
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,480
Speaker 3: That's that's the one that's six and a half to

596
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 3: eight hours somewhere in the cara. I can't remember exactly.

597
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 2: What's going on in six and a half slow cinema.

598
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 2: I think they call it, and were you at.

599
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 3: Home while watching? I was at home?

600
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, any seven hours and thirty minutes a perfect runtime.

601
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,440
Speaker 2: My new rule is I'll walk out of a three

602
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 2: hour movie halfway through, or I'll watch a full seven

603
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,280
Speaker 2: and a half hour movie. Yeah, that's and a half hours.

604
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 2: I'll be in the theater because you've basically moved in.

605
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 2: Yeah wait, but did you watch this at home?

606
00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 3: At home? But I have a projector, and you know,

607
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,400
Speaker 3: I try to make a nice, a nice evening.

608
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 2: Of it, right, do you pause and like get dinner?

609
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 3: Yeah? Okay, yeah? Or or like yeah, maybe even split

610
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 3: it up into a couple of nights.

611
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I feel like sitting through that entire thing

612
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 2: is a uti waiting to happen. Just you got a

613
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 2: bathroom breaks? I mean, that's worse than a flight.

614
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 3: I'm taking some breaks, but I try to also get

615
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 3: you know, yeah, like I mean, how do you get?

616
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:37,120
Speaker 2: Wow, that's amazing. My attention span really had. I feel

617
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 2: like I used to have a really good one and

618
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 2: has just been destroyed, absolutely destroyed. I have to go

619
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,520
Speaker 2: to a movie theater in order to watch a movie

620
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 2: because at home so difficult to get away from my

621
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 2: stupid phone, and a movie has to be so engaging,

622
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,679
Speaker 2: and so I can't imagine what seven and a half hours.

623
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 2: I guess that would be like a goal, like something

624
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 2: to rewire my brain.

625
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I feel like that with TV more

626
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 3: than film. I feel like this film will be done

627
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 3: in a couple of hours, right, so I can sit

628
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 3: and watch it and even if I'm don't like it,

629
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 3: if there's something I'm taking from it that, you know,

630
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 3: I'll appreciate that. And a TV show where I just

631
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 3: watch an episode and I'm like, I got to really

632
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 3: dedicate like seven more hours of my life to just

633
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 3: this season alone. Especially it's one way you should watch

634
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 3: the show. And there's four seasons, and that's where I

635
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 3: not the four seasons, but you know, also the commitment

636
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 3: of like restart starting a new episode, starting an episode,

637
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 3: I don't know. That's that's where I have a harder

638
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 3: time people.

639
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,479
Speaker 2: Who are really able to like binge a show like

640
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 2: in a couple of nights. That doesn't make any sense

641
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 2: to me.

642
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll watch like four shows maybe a year, right,

643
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 3: or four seasons of a show.

644
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like I started, we started in this home

645
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 2: watching a Little House on the Prayer.

646
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 3: I've been I've been keeping up on the pod.

647
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 2: But like I started talking about it, and I think

648
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 2: I feel like listeners have absolutely lapped me there.

649
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 3: Like I just started season three.

650
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 2: We just finished season one because we're watching one episode

651
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 2: a night, so it takes and what like not even

652
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 2: every night of the week. It's like two a week,

653
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 2: and other people are watching four a night and just

654
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 2: blowing through this thing. I don't think I'll be a lot.

655
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 2: I don't think i'll live long enough to watch the

656
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 2: whole season. I see.

657
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 3: I really like and Or. Oh I love and Or,

658
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 3: but I'm still I have three episodes left and I

659
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 3: love it. But it is almost like, well, let me

660
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 3: make sure I've set aside the night and I'm not

661
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 3: gonna get distracted, and I'm watching a new to me

662
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 3: and Or right, and it really takes my time.

663
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 2: So the first season of Andor I blew through, and

664
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 2: then there was such a long break that I forgot everything.

665
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 2: And so season two was a little bit me like

666
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 2: going in and out a bit because it's like, what's

667
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 2: going on? Who is this person? I need to watch

668
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 2: it all in a row.

669
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 3: I actually didn't watch any of it until this year,

670
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 3: So what an experience. So I've been going straight through

671
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,600
Speaker 3: the twenty four episodes or whatever.

672
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 2: Are you a Star Wars person?

673
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 3: Yes, I mean for sure I am in terms like

674
00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 3: when I was a kid, right and all of that.

675
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 3: I haven't really kept up on the TV shows. I

676
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 3: think this is the only one. How could you possibly?

677
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, there are a thousand episodes of all of those

678
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 2: different shows.

679
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and I know people love like the animated

680
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,959
Speaker 3: Clone Wars, and I've watched some of that as well,

681
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 3: just see what it was all about. But you know, again,

682
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 3: any animated I tried to watch like Demon Slayer one time, and.

683
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 2: Oh, sure, how many episodes of that?

684
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 3: Was probably? Like so that was pretty good. I got

685
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:23,959
Speaker 3: like four in. I'm like, I just don't think I'm

686
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,239
Speaker 3: gonna make it through all of them.

687
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a different brain of person who can watch

688
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 2: five hundred episodes of an animated show like just in

689
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 2: a few months. For me, that's a lifetime goal. Yes,

690
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 2: and I will fail at it. I will absolutely fail

691
00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 2: at it.

692
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 3: Eventually get through the Flintstones.

693
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 2: I'm working so hard. I need to see if they

694
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 2: stick together, the family doesn't break up.

695
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 3: I don't have the kids yet.

696
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:52,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I need to see them get to the modern car. Yeah,

697
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:56,280
Speaker 2: that's who was the Flintstones four? Was that for children

698
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 2: or adults?

699
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 3: I mean, I guess family entertainment for both. They like,

700
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 3: we're kind of doing the Honeymooners, but it's a cartoon,

701
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,040
Speaker 3: so kids will want to watch, but it's on in

702
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 3: prime time.

703
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 2: I think, Yeah, it kind of doesn't make sense to

704
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 2: me as a TV show anymore because it's not like

705
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 2: Simpson's Level for mostly for adults, but it's not really

706
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 2: for chure. I mean, like the Dinosaurs are for children.

707
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 3: I'm almost positive, Well, okay, that's that was way too strong.

708
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 3: I have a vague suspicion I a memory that there's

709
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 3: an episode of Flintstones where they're trying to like maybe

710
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 3: maybe they didn't maybe they adopted the kids. I forget

711
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 3: what it is, but they're like not gonna Barney and

712
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 3: Betty are not gonna be able to adopt bam bam

713
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,959
Speaker 3: or something. And Barney goes to he goes to a

714
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 3: bridge and like ties a boulder to his waiste and

715
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 3: he's gonna like commit suicide. I'm like, is that? Did

716
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 3: that really happen? On the flint Stows? There is this

717
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 3: like a dream I had when I was seven and

718
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 3: then like h taking it as cannon for years.

719
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 2: Wow. What a dark episode of the Flintstone. Wow you

720
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 2: think he would have I mean, I guess he wasn't

721
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 2: ready to be a father.

722
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 3: No, or he was sad that they weren't gonna he

723
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 3: wasn't going to get to be one.

724
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean, if if it's that big of

725
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 2: an issue, he's got some things to work to it

726
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 2: before he adopts the kid. Yeah, and the adoption agency

727
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,240
Speaker 2: saw that you're kind of a little too. Yeah, sir,

728
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 2: work on yourself a little bit. But if you're gonna

729
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 2: throw yourself off a bridge because your adoption got declined,

730
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 2: they don't get declined denied option, adoption denied.

731
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 3: They ran the car to it got declined. Sorry, paperwork,

732
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 3: we needed a file, just to wow.

733
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 2: I wonder if they ever got the kid.

734
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 3: I would bet by the end of the episode they did.

735
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 2: I would hope. So yeah, that's kind of how TV

736
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 2: used to work. The problem was usually solved. There is

737
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 2: an episode of Little House on the Prairie where Laura

738
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: goes to meet God at the top of a mountain.

739
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 2: Just a surreal thing to watch. And then she gets

740
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 2: to the bottom of the mountain at the end and

741
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 2: having not met God, but maybe there's a secret guy

742
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 2: living in the woods who maybe it's very honestly kind

743
00:32:59,400 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 2: of scary.

744
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 3: That's interesting.

745
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 2: Like the sort of thing I was watching was like,

746
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 2: if I was watching this as a kid, I would

747
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 2: be terrified. She just meets this weird guy in the

748
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 2: mountains who may or may not be a spiritual or yeah,

749
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 2: she might be hallucinating. I thought she ate something in

750
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 2: the woods kind of off camera. What a show, What

751
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 2: an experience. The reboots got a lot to live up too.

752
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was. We were not a little house on

753
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 3: the prairie. It's probably because two boys, me and my brother, oh,

754
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 3: I feel like, and also living in Japan, we had

755
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 3: one TV channel, oh from like eight to ten, so

756
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 3: we didn't get what was airing on that there was

757
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 3: like the premost slot was Sunday at eight I think

758
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 3: it was eight, and half the year was Cosby Show

759
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 3: and half the year it was Roseanne.

760
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 2: Okay, interesting two people who have gone on to do

761
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 2: so many.

762
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 3: Exactly, we didn't get Simpsons there. They would just you know,

763
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 3: sometimes show a baseball game or something on right. That

764
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 3: was probably tape certainly tape delayed.

765
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 2: That sounds so refreshing to just not have an option

766
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 2: of what to watch on TV.

767
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, now you could flip to the Japanese channels as well,

768
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 3: But then you write some of the crazy game shows.

769
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 3: Someone's falling in water. That's fun, but we you know,

770
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 3: you can not understand it.

771
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,280
Speaker 2: Right, What did you watch that documentary about the Japanese

772
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 2: game show about the guy who's like, what happened? They

773
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 2: just kept him in an apartment.

774
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 3: For really, I know what you're talking about, but I

775
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 3: haven't watched.

776
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:22,319
Speaker 2: That at least. Is that sound familiar to you? It

777
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 2: was brutal to watch. They basically drove this man out

778
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:25,919
Speaker 2: of his mind.

779
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, in like solitary confinements. Right, It's really a scary

780
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:31,360
Speaker 3: thing to watch.

781
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 2: But the country was having a ball watching him just

782
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 2: kind of break down. Yeah, I think we need to

783
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 2: get back to only having two TV shows. We need

784
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 2: to get back to your childhood.

785
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 3: Experience having armed forces network.

786
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:51,359
Speaker 2: The armed forces need to take over all in some ways,

787
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,359
Speaker 2: I believe that. In some ways, I think that may

788
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 2: be a dark way for the country.

789
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 3: Occasionally get like a Baltimore Orioles game, you know, Wow,

790
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,360
Speaker 3: did you have a favorite between Roseanne and Cosby?

791
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 2: This will reflect on you as a person.

792
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,879
Speaker 3: Hmmm, that's a good question. I was a big fan

793
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 3: of both. I don't. It really was kind of like

794
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,399
Speaker 3: one would end. You'd be like, great, now Roseanne's coming

795
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 3: next week. Then that would end, You're like Lord Cosby

796
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,280
Speaker 3: showed you know at the time, classic shows.

797
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, nobody knew anything, knew the better you knew, the

798
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 2: wiser is that?

799
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 3: What do you say?

800
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:28,919
Speaker 2: I don't know. But and one had Lori Metcalf. That's true,

801
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 2: So I don't know anything with Lori Metcalf. I'm on board.

802
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:33,719
Speaker 2: Although I've never watched it. I think I've seen one

803
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 2: episode of Roseanne won half well the commercial for the Conners.

804
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 2: But I have seen Getting On? Have you seen Getting On?

805
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 3: I haven't seen Getting On. I've seen her in a

806
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 3: couple of plays though.

807
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,919
Speaker 2: But they were phenomenal. Oh yeah, she's so good.

808
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's amazing.

809
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,800
Speaker 2: Well, is there anything left to say about Vin Scully?

810
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 2: I mean, he's dead, so I don't have to push

811
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:50,919
Speaker 2: him out of the way.

812
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,400
Speaker 3: No, I would say, you know, if you want to

813
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 3: sell that, keep it in the box, put it on eBay.

814
00:35:57,239 --> 00:35:59,240
Speaker 3: I don't think you're going to get a huge price,

815
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,920
Speaker 3: but I wouldn't treat it too much like a collector's

816
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 3: eye might think. You can have to do with.

817
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 2: The gas station seventy six.

818
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 3: Do you see that that's just a sponsor. I'm sure

819
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 3: they paid. They paid for the bobblehead, yeah, or the

820
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 3: the offset some of the costs by saying, you know,

821
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 3: will sell use some ad space on.

822
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 2: The side of the box is behind this.

823
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 3: They did a thing at the dog I went to

824
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 3: the Dodger game on Saturday, huh, and they it was

825
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 3: like a full moon and they had a shot at

826
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,800
Speaker 3: the beautiful full moon and then they like cross faded

827
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 3: to the seventy six orb that like it's just in

828
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 3: the outfield. Is just you know, as a sponsored thing.

829
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 3: That sort of weird, Like that's how it should be.

830
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 2: We shouldn't have to look at the moon. We should

831
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 2: have to look at.

832
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:47,439
Speaker 3: The circle the moon shot game sponsored collab with the moon.

833
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, they should be putting ads on the moon. We're

834
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 2: not far from that, I imagine. I wonder how you would

835
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 2: do that. Have you driven past the Tesla Diner?

836
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 3: No, where where is somebody?

837
00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 2: Well, I don't want to, I don't want to encourage

838
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 2: tear or or shopping at this thing. But it's all

839
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 2: It's somewhere in Hollywood, one of the most hideous buildings

840
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 2: ever created.

841
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 3: I just I've heard it exists, but I.

842
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 2: Just looking over at it, it was goober city. Everybody there

843
00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 2: was just a loser. They were playing the matrix. It's

844
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 2: just everything you could possibly imagine it is. And I

845
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 2: wonder what they'll make of it when they close it.

846
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 2: What could that possive. I mean, it's not big, it's.

847
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,959
Speaker 3: Also a dealership or it's just like it's just.

848
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 2: A diner, and I think you can charge your tesla there.

849
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:37,279
Speaker 2: But what does that become after it goes out of

850
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 2: business is the big question. Can't be a Halloween superstore,

851
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,960
Speaker 2: can't be a ross. Those are kind of the two

852
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 2: things that move in.

853
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 3: Maybe a Kona charge that's not a bad.

854
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 2: A star they do turn these gas stations into Starbucks.

855
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 2: M oh, I'm curious to see. It's one of the

856
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 2: ugliest things I've ever seen. And that's such a sad

857
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 2: thing that that exists. But what do you make of

858
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 2: the bumper stickers that say I bought this before Elon

859
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 2: went crazy?

860
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 3: I think it would be funny to put that on

861
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 3: your car if it's not a tesla.

862
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's I thought of that often. Actually, I wait, I.

863
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 3: Do an Elon Musk story. But I don't want to

864
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 3: be too You can cut this out if it's boring.

865
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 2: But no, I mean I'm intrigued already.

866
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 3: Okay, and I you're married. So when I was a

867
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 3: young writer, starting out youngish, my friend Harriswittles was writing

868
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 3: on Parks and rec with Mike Scully, who I had

869
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 3: not ever met, and he and Harris said, hey, Mike

870
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 3: Scully was saying, the Simpsons are looking for more writers.

871
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 3: Mind if I give your script? He had read like

872
00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 3: a script script I'd written. He said, mind if I

873
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 3: give Mike Scully your script to pass along to the Simpsons.

874
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:54,799
Speaker 3: I said, please, that'd be exciting. Uh he did. I

875
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 3: got called in for an interview with al Jean growing

876
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 3: in and I met with Al Jean and I just

877
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 3: had to bring a few ideas and stuff, like I

878
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 3: remember this is how Fargo long ago. This was like.

879
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 3: One of my ideas was like, there's this thing called

880
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 3: the Hunger Games and they're going to make it into movies,

881
00:39:10,680 --> 00:39:12,240
Speaker 3: and like Bart and Lisa could be in a Hunger

882
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 3: Games type thing and you get ahead of like the

883
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:16,839
Speaker 3: movies I think are going to be a big kind

884
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 3: of Anyway, the meeting was great, but never heard anything.

885
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 3: A year and a half later I got an email

886
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 3: from Algene and he said, hey, would you want to

887
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,840
Speaker 3: write a freelance script? We would need it in two weeks.

888
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 3: You know, but you write an episode of The Simpsons, right.

889
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,280
Speaker 2: So of course now they were doing that that recently,

890
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 2: I mean in the last fifteen years.

891
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, they really, because they used to be in w

892
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 3: GA if you had a certain episode order, you had

893
00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 3: to spread the wealth zone have like freelance writers.

894
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,160
Speaker 2: Interesting, I'm not sure who enforced.

895
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,480
Speaker 3: That if you didn't, but anyway, sometimes I was doing

896
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 3: it still. So he was like, great, we have these

897
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 3: story notes and would you want so so we just

898
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 3: have a few notes and you'll just need to turn

899
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 3: in a draft like two weeks. I said, I'd love

900
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 3: to do this, obviously be an honor and it was.

901
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,080
Speaker 3: And don't get me wrong, and they went, okay, you

902
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 3: know who Elon Musk is and I didn't, and I sure,

903
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,200
Speaker 3: and of course I do. I googled it was like

904
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,720
Speaker 3: this again, like pre Tesla at least Tesla in the US,

905
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,759
Speaker 3: and it was I googled it and it was a

906
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 3: PayPal billionaire who's into clean energy, and I had never

907
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 3: heard of him, and I went, okay, sure, yeah, and

908
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,240
Speaker 3: they sent me the notes. It was like two pages

909
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 3: of notes, and it was basically a story that's like

910
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 3: Elon Musk comes to Springfield and he mister Burns gets

911
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,320
Speaker 3: upset with him. That like gets upset the Springfield loves

912
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 3: an energy billionaire and hates him. And he was going

913
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 3: to be the guest voice, you know, playing himself. And

914
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 3: so I wrote this draft. I had never really written,

915
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 3: apart from a specscript like a half hour narrative. I

916
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,319
Speaker 3: think I'd written on one season of comedy Bang Bang

917
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 3: ok point anyway, wrote the draft went to like a

918
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 3: table read a year later. The script's totally different from

919
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 3: what I wrote, But that's part for the courus of

920
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 3: Simpsons known to expect that Elon Musk's at the table reading,

921
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 3: you know, does it signs the script and stuff? Again,

922
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 3: this is all like maybe now Tesla's around, but just

923
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 3: kind of before I, like I even thought of him

924
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:06,239
Speaker 3: as like a public figure. Did The episode comes out

925
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 3: and airs now years later and I, you know, Simpsons

926
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 3: was like my ship. I love Simpsons growing up. It

927
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 3: like shaped my sense of humor. I was so honored

928
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,839
Speaker 3: to touch it in some way. And like years later

929
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,800
Speaker 3: it is like, this is the worst episode ever of Simpsons.

930
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 3: If they took the Michael jacksone off the air, they

931
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 3: should take this one off the air. This is like

932
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:29,960
Speaker 3: propaganda for like who is Neil Campbell? Like who wrote this?

933
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,360
Speaker 3: Like it wasn't even right around the Simpsons And he

934
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 3: comes in and writes this like puff piece for you

935
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 3: lot of us.

936
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 2: It's kind of Ah, that was a nightmare.

937
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, So so one episode of the Simpsons credited to

938
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 3: my name, and uh, and it certainly has its detractors.

939
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 2: Oh that's really a shame. What an absolutely yeah, it's like.

940
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 3: A monkey's paulk any any episode of them, any episode?

941
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 2: Okay, Oh that's so tough.

942
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 3: You know, no one knew at the time, I guess,

943
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:04,760
Speaker 3: but uh and I was still very grateful too, But wow,

944
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 3: kind of could it have exploded it a worse way

945
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 3: for me?

946
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 2: Who do you think is a worse energy person, mister

947
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 2: Burns or Elon musk.

948
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 3: Well, In the world of the Simpsons, there's barely Anything

949
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:20,840
Speaker 3: wrong with Elon Musk in Springfield is Burns.

950
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:23,280
Speaker 2: But I mean, I will say this for mister Burns

951
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 2: compared to Elon Musk, mister Burns is funny. Yes, that's

952
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 2: Elon Musk. That's the one thing he wants to be

953
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 2: and never will be. Yes, never, No, of course, there's

954
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 2: no one has ever tried harder to be funny and

955
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,080
Speaker 2: never been funny. It's amazing to watch that man fail

956
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 2: at being funny. One of the most annoying people alive.

957
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 2: Elon don't reach out? Well, what a story. Oh God,

958
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. You're just gonna live with that curse forever.

959
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:51,359
Speaker 3: Life takes some funny twists and turns. Well.

960
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,359
Speaker 2: I think we should play a game. We're gonna play

961
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,160
Speaker 2: a game called Gift Master. But I need a number

962
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 2: between one and ten from you.

963
00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:57,839
Speaker 3: Eight.

964
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 2: Okay. I have to do some light calculating to get

965
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 2: our game pieces, so that right now you can recommend, promote,

966
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 2: do whatever you want.

967
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 3: I'll be right about okay. What I would promote is

968
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,840
Speaker 3: the TV show Digman. I co created it with Andy

969
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 3: Samberg and have been running it. Our first season is

970
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 3: on Paramount Plus our second season at the time we're

971
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 3: doing this interview is airing on Comedy Central and will

972
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,839
Speaker 3: eventually be on Paramount Plus. I say with a good

973
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,840
Speaker 3: amount of confidence, But there's just been a huge merger

974
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 3: that's happened. I don't really know when it will be

975
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 3: on Paramount Plus, and I don't know what the future

976
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 3: of all these things are. But anyway, I'm quite proud

977
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:35,840
Speaker 3: of it second season, very excited for people to see.

978
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,840
Speaker 3: So hopefully you'll eventually be able to find it gorgeous.

979
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, everybody go watch Digman hopefully. Ah, these mergers, let's

980
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:47,880
Speaker 2: get back again at least the two just two streaming

981
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 2: networks or something. Yeah, I need to there are too

982
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 2: many subscriptions at this point.

983
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just and with this stuff or people like

984
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,440
Speaker 3: when's it going to stream? Like I would have had

985
00:43:58,440 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 3: a clear answer.

986
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,360
Speaker 2: It's crazy that you don't know if anyone in the

987
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 2: world should know when the show is going to be

988
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:04,959
Speaker 2: on something.

989
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 3: I read when it should, which is like February of

990
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 3: next year. Sure, but I don't know that that is.

991
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 3: Things won't change, could change for the better and come

992
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 3: out right it comes sooner or could come?

993
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:24,239
Speaker 2: Never was wow, Paramount because now there it's the sky Dance. Yes,

994
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:29,399
Speaker 2: we love the name sky Dance, so beautiful, so evocative.

995
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,280
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is or where it came from,

996
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:35,080
Speaker 2: but good for everyone for merging and whatever. Okay, let's

997
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,399
Speaker 2: play gift masks. Thank you. I'm going to name three

998
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,840
Speaker 2: celebrities and then I'm going to name three gifts and

999
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:41,359
Speaker 2: you're going to tell me which gift you would give

1000
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:42,520
Speaker 2: which celebrity and why.

1001
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:44,879
Speaker 3: All right, so that makes perfect sense, makes perfect sense.

1002
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,839
Speaker 2: Okay, Today you'll be giving the gifts to number one

1003
00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 2: Sam Bankman Freed kind of a polarizing figure, sure, Number

1004
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:58,680
Speaker 2: two post malone, Number three Christine Baranski. And these are

1005
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,120
Speaker 2: the gifts you'll be giving. Number one is a family

1006
00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:05,360
Speaker 2: of four, less traditional, more of an experience, well, an

1007
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 2: experience and objects if you imagine people as objects. Number

1008
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 2: two a USB chord, which is I need to say

1009
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 2: less this is your game. And number three is Anderson Cooper.

1010
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 3: Mmmm. I'm going to give the USB cord to Christine Baranski, okay,

1011
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 3: because I feel not to pass make a judgment that that.

1012
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 3: But like me, I still have my iPhone needs the

1013
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 3: like lightning cable. Sure, so I'm not fully USB c's right,

1014
00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 3: So I would imagine Christine Baranski might have some need

1015
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 3: for you USB and not USB C.

1016
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 2: She doesn't strike me as a tech heads.

1017
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:51,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I feel like post Malone and Sam Bankman

1018
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,680
Speaker 3: Freed haven't used just a standard US They've gone to

1019
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:59,520
Speaker 3: USBC everything right right for a while, so they would

1020
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,400
Speaker 3: have no U for it. I feel like she probably

1021
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:03,879
Speaker 3: has a few devices that could use it.

1022
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 2: Out of these three people, I bet she's the one

1023
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,480
Speaker 2: that has a junk drawer. You can throw that in. Yeah,

1024
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,480
Speaker 2: those other two guys don't have I don't think post Alone.

1025
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:14,839
Speaker 2: I think he's a vagabond. He just is all over

1026
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 2: the country at all times.

1027
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:16,840
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1028
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:20,400
Speaker 2: And Sam Bankman Fried probably lives in some sort of chamber.

1029
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:25,000
Speaker 3: Yeah. Now I'm tempted to say I think Postalone feels

1030
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 3: like a guy who's kind of a little bit like

1031
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,400
Speaker 3: has the values of like family, like would want a

1032
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:34,920
Speaker 3: family and and say make me Freed. I'd think once publicity,

1033
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:37,879
Speaker 3: once coverage, so I can imagine, but I'm gonna flip

1034
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:39,879
Speaker 3: it and then say, I think Sam Bankman Free should

1035
00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,520
Speaker 3: have the family to maybe sort of see some other

1036
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:47,880
Speaker 3: priorities in maybe he'll realize open his eyes his eyes

1037
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 3: a bit.

1038
00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 2: The organic world.

1039
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, right, beautifully put and then it's sort of

1040
00:46:56,160 --> 00:47:00,359
Speaker 3: by default leaves Anderson Cooper to postalone. But you know,

1041
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:04,480
Speaker 3: maybe as an artist, Cooper can help postmon gonna get

1042
00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:07,759
Speaker 3: past the first thought on something, dig deep with an interview,

1043
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,160
Speaker 3: have him kind of explore.

1044
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 2: And what an odd couple situations? Yeah, a lot A

1045
00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 2: pair in a one bedroom apartment. They're getting on each

1046
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:20,719
Speaker 2: other's nerves. Anderson is so tidy. Post Malone is, you know,

1047
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:26,279
Speaker 2: beer everywhere, just an absolute slob. I know, so little thoughts.

1048
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:29,799
Speaker 3: The same here. I try to think of the name

1049
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 3: of a But I.

1050
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,480
Speaker 2: Feel like Anderson Cooper would help him clean up his act,

1051
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 2: and post Malone might help Anderson loosen up a bit.

1052
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. Could be. I mean they could do

1053
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,280
Speaker 3: an odd couple revival.

1054
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,759
Speaker 2: Yes, they should. They should do one on Broadway.

1055
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:43,520
Speaker 3: On Broadway.

1056
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:44,880
Speaker 2: I think that's what the world needs.

1057
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, get a Oh what's his name? Who directed the Oh?

1058
00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:56,560
Speaker 3: Never mind Steven Spielberg. Oh we know he directed The Graduate.

1059
00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 2: Oh what is that guy's name directed? Uh, he's directed

1060
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 2: so many great movies.

1061
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:05,319
Speaker 3: And I listened to the entire audio book of his

1062
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:09,799
Speaker 3: Holy Mike Nichols, Mike Lee, and I knew that was

1063
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 3: the another great direct great director for more recent and

1064
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:14,799
Speaker 3: I just couldn't get Lee out of my head and

1065
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,799
Speaker 3: replace it with me. Oh yeah, anyway, you just yeah,

1066
00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 3: take his old blocking.

1067
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,800
Speaker 2: Notes to do right? You bring him back from the dead.

1068
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 3: Why not? Or get his daughter in love Rachel Nichols

1069
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:25,000

Speaker 2: Vin Scully. She should do a puff piece on me.

1074
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:35,520
Speaker 3: That'd be good.

1075
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:38,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's probably the next natural step for her career.

1076
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:41,360
Speaker 3: I give the puffy requested.

1077
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:43,799
Speaker 2: I need to hire.

1078
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 3: It hurts the journalists feelings, and you refer to it

1079
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:49,160
Speaker 3: that lie.

1080
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:51,880
Speaker 2: I need to get some sort of pr team to

00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:54,160

00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:57,840
Speaker 3: I agree.

Speaker 2: Why not Martha was I'm a Martha Stewart type. People

00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,359
Speaker 2: are clamoring for me to be on the cover of SI.

1086
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:07,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, or do you do you know when they would

Speaker 3: do this sort of sexy it's actually just painted on.

1088
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:12,280
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's time for the painting on. Yeah, yes,

1089
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:15,920

00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 3: Yes.

1091
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:20,280
Speaker 2: Wow, I'll be all over the place. Rachel. This starts

1092
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,040
Speaker 2: with you. I don't know, it's such a loose connection.

1093
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:27,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, we said the name of your deceased father in law.

1094
00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:30,840
Speaker 3: Why would you not your back.

1095
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 2: Is against the one. Okay, well, I feel like we

1096
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:37,400
Speaker 2: should get to the final segment of the podcast. This

1097
00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 2: is called I said no emails. People are writing in

1098
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 2: and hopefully sending voice notes to I said no gifts

1099
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:45,319
Speaker 2: at gmail dot com. We help me answer a question

1100
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:49,120
Speaker 2: you would love Okay, this is let's see here High Bridger.

1101
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:52,000
Speaker 2: They don't even mention you, which is so rude. So

1102
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:55,160
Speaker 2: let's say Hybridger and Neil, I love the show and

1103
00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:57,360
Speaker 2: wondered if you would help me with a problem. My

1104
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:00,760
Speaker 2: wife thinks she hates Mexican food, but whenever I convince

1105
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:03,319
Speaker 2: her to eat it, she actually loves it. How do

1106
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:06,280
Speaker 2: I get her to understand she actually loves Mexican food.

1107
00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:09,080
Speaker 2: I can't think of a Mexican food she doesn't like,

1108
00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,839
Speaker 2: like she absolutely loves Nacho's and she always eats half

1109
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 2: my torta when I order one, despite being gluten sensitive.

1110
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,399
Speaker 2: Thanks for your help, and that's from James.

1111
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:19,239
Speaker 3: Interesting what do.

1112
00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:22,120
Speaker 2: We Okay, let's think about this email for a minute.

1113
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:25,120
Speaker 2: Is the wife racist? Maybe?

1114
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:25,680
Speaker 3: Could it be?

1115
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,239
Speaker 2: So that's just a possibility. We'll put that out, but

1116
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,839
Speaker 2: we'll put it aside. Truly the first thing that comes

1117
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:34,239
Speaker 2: to mind for me. Okay. And also it sounds like

1118
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:36,839
Speaker 2: he wants us to help gaslight his wife mm hmm

1119
00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:42,400
Speaker 2: in some ways. But he's saying she's gluten sensitive. I

1120
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 2: actually am seeing a real problem here. This woman's eating bread.

1121
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,719
Speaker 2: It's making her sick, and so of course she can't

1122
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:55,520
Speaker 2: like the cuisine because she doesn't realize that it's causing

1123
00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:58,440
Speaker 2: all of these whatever issues happen in her stomach.

1124
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,760
Speaker 3: Well, there certainly is our tortilla versus a corn tortilla

1125
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:05,200
Speaker 3: is going to be a difference for someone with gluten sensitivity.

1126
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:07,840
Speaker 2: Yes, you have to go with the corn tortilla. You

1127
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,240
Speaker 2: have to go with it. Well, they're just corn chips.

1128
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:14,800
Speaker 2: But my sister is celiac and so there's I like

1129
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:18,920
Speaker 2: for actually getting into the allergen issues here. Maybe the

1130
00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 2: wife is getting cross contamination on the nachos, or maybe

1131
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 2: the cheese sauce has wheat allergens in it. James is

1132
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,479
Speaker 2: not thinking about his wife's health. All he's thinking about

1133
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:30,640
Speaker 2: is his favorite cuisine.

1134
00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:33,279
Speaker 3: No, and this could be a you know, a bad

1135
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:34,879
Speaker 3: situation where he's trying to.

1136
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,160
Speaker 2: Family. Yeah, he's trying to poison her. This is kind

1137
00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:44,080
Speaker 2: of like putting poison in the soup for six weeks.

1138
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:48,600
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, we got a phantom thread kind of operation happening.

1139
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 2: But honey, you love Mexican food, I'll bring it to

1140
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 2: you in bed.

1141
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:55,239
Speaker 3: I also would it seemed like a lot of it,

1142
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:58,400
Speaker 3: And maybe I was just inferring this. It was perhaps

1143
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,399
Speaker 3: takeout orders. I wonder if you were like, Hey, I've

1144
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:03,719
Speaker 3: planned a big, fun night out and it's to this

1145
00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:08,399
Speaker 3: really nice restaurant. It happens to be Mexican cuisine, right,

1146
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 3: but we're I'm taking you out for a lovely evening.

1147
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:15,120
Speaker 3: Is that going to help mark it? Yeah? And you'll

1148
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:17,440
Speaker 3: see the whole menu of options and go, oh, well,

1149
00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:20,759
Speaker 3: this wouldn't affect my sensitivity and all that.

1150
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:23,279
Speaker 2: And if they're let's say, if they're getting take out

1151
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 2: and she's getting nachos. First of all, she's bad at

1152
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:28,640
Speaker 2: ordering things that does not travel. That's a soggy chip.

1153
00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:31,799
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm frustrated with the wife. Let's say

1154
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 2: it Mexican food is for everyone loves it. It's a

1155
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:35,760
Speaker 2: fun food.

1156
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:38,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, what's the problem. What's wrong with this person?

1157
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:38,759
Speaker 2: I know?

1158
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 3: And we just have to imagine James is a sort

1159
00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,040
Speaker 3: of stereotypical impact husband.

1160
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:50,839
Speaker 2: The wife is always the issue, This bore wife. She's

1161
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:53,480
Speaker 2: always nagging, nagging about how she doesn't.

1162
00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:57,520
Speaker 3: Like Mexican while he's, you know, probably a firefighter.

1163
00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:00,640
Speaker 2: He's putting his life on the line every We've got

1164
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:04,239
Speaker 2: a first responder who loves Mexican food and a wife

1165
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:05,200
Speaker 2: who won't let him eat.

1166
00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:07,920
Speaker 3: Is not honey, I brought him some nacho. Sorry, I'm late.

1167
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:09,920
Speaker 3: There was a foe alarmed fire.

1168
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 2: Let me just clean off this ash, clear my lung.

1169
00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:17,160
Speaker 3: Well, it's not bonbonds. You're right, I'm sorry, dear.

1170
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 2: Well, we solved it. I think we ultimately solved it.

1171
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 3: We kind of went from accusing him of big a

1172
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,960
Speaker 3: murderer too, thinking that he's actually the most wonderful man

1173
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:32,760
Speaker 3: on her. Vote for James.

1174
00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:35,560
Speaker 2: Vote for James to get a divorce from this lady,

1175
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:37,440
Speaker 2: and hopefully it's a wake up call for her. Yes,

1176
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:41,400
Speaker 2: she doesn't know what she's got and it's time for

1177
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:43,320
Speaker 2: her to tune into this she's not even a listener

1178
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:44,160
Speaker 2: of the podcast.

1179
00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:44,920
Speaker 3: Apparently not.

1180
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:46,319
Speaker 2: This lady sucks right.

1181
00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:49,080
Speaker 3: If she hears this, then is up? God?

1182
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:54,120
Speaker 2: Wow, you know some people, some people's wives. That's what

1183
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:58,520
Speaker 2: I'll say. We answered the question more than perfectly. I

1184
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:03,240
Speaker 2: think so we ruined marriage. But we may have created

1185
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:07,040
Speaker 2: a new fan of Mexican food. Maybe that's the real

1186
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 2: hope there.

1187
00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:09,960
Speaker 3: We can always use one more, Yeah, we could always

1188
00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:10,880
Speaker 3: use one more.

1189
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:14,480
Speaker 2: And now I've got this gorgeous not only bubblehead, but

1190
00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:17,279
Speaker 2: now career goal. Yes, and it's one of the rare

1191
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,480
Speaker 2: career goals where I don't have to kill someone to

1192
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:21,920
Speaker 2: get to where I need to be. And I feel

1193
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:24,560
Speaker 2: great about it. I feel like Dodgers fans will embrace me.

1194
00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:27,400
Speaker 3: Hey, I do you do?

1195
00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 2: It starts with one person, one brave person. Someone needed

1196
00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:35,440
Speaker 2: to speak up, and you did, and so I'll be

1197
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:38,440
Speaker 2: in the stadium shortly, I imagine, let's do it. Who

1198
00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:41,080
Speaker 2: could ask for more? Well, I've had such a wonderful time.

1199
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:42,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you so much for having me here, an

1200
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 3: honor to be here. I'm a big fan.

1201
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:46,719
Speaker 2: Oh you're very sweet show, thank you for being here

1202
00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:49,799
Speaker 2: and listener the podcast is screeching to a halt. I'm

1203
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,560
Speaker 2: slamming on the brakes. Hopefully we all have our seat

1204
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:56,520
Speaker 2: belts on and we'll walk away alive. But it is over.
