Speaker 1: The Nicky Glizer Podcast Nick Glaser post.
Speaker 2: Here's Niki.
Speaker 3: Hello, here, I am welcome to the show. It's Nicki
Speaker 3: Glazer podcast. Fun show for you Today. We have as
Speaker 3: always Brian and Noah, Hey guys, hello, and then via Zoom,
Speaker 3: who you know and hasn't been on the show for
Speaker 3: about three weeks but favorite of the show Sean O'Connor
Speaker 3: hi excited to be here.
Speaker 4: Over zoom my favorite way to perform.
Speaker 2: It's the worst.
Speaker 1: Did you guys do any shows in COVID over zoom?
Speaker 1: What did you do?
Speaker 2: I mean, I think I.
Speaker 3: I initially was like, yes, the world shut down, like
Speaker 3: everyone's gonna be as bad at stand up as I
Speaker 3: am because we're all not doing shows. And then shows
Speaker 3: started popping up and I was seeing footage of people
Speaker 3: doing them, so I said yes to one, and then
Speaker 3: it just felt so unlike a stand up show that
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, people are getting better from doing
Speaker 3: these I can just not do these'.
Speaker 2: That's kind of how it felt. Did you guys do some?
Speaker 4: I played Quiplash on like for an audience with like
Speaker 4: we have guests on and like it was very fun,
Speaker 4: but it was not stand up I mean you could
Speaker 4: just do stand up in your mirror and it would
Speaker 4: be the same thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I don't think that there's anything wrong with
Speaker 3: doing that. I think it would be good sometimes to
Speaker 3: practice stand up more. I think we convince ourselves like
Speaker 3: you have to do it in front of the audience. No,
Speaker 3: it doesn't count. I mean, yeah, you don't know if
Speaker 3: something's funny or not doing it in the mirror. But
Speaker 3: I think it would help to practice to nobody.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, when I write new jokes, I like just
Speaker 1: pace around my living room like talking to myself, and
Speaker 1: that's kind of like just performing it. It's just like
Speaker 1: you can kind of sense when something has at least
Speaker 1: the cadence of a bit, and then it helped. Yeah,
Speaker 1: sitting down and just like writing a stand up bit
Speaker 1: is like nearly impossible. I think, walk around and talk
Speaker 1: it out.
Speaker 4: I've tried to do that. I've tried to like or
Speaker 4: I'm like, I'm gonna sit down on my computer and
Speaker 4: write stand but it just feels like you're writing a
Speaker 4: memoir that sucks.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, it so does. That's what I did yesterday.
Speaker 3: I like went and wrote a memoir and it did
Speaker 3: feel like a chapter. I was like this could just
Speaker 3: be a chapter of a book I'm writing, and it's
Speaker 3: like it's not the same, You're right and it, but
Speaker 3: it did feel like I accomplished something just by doing it.
Speaker 3: I yeah, I had a pretty productive yesterday. Yesterday it
Speaker 3: didn't work out, but I realized the only reason I
Speaker 3: really need to work out is so that I can
Speaker 3: do something that feels like really hard and get past it,
Speaker 3: and then I have self esteem for the rest of
Speaker 3: the day because I did something that like I wanted
Speaker 3: to quit, but I went past it. So as long
Speaker 3: as I do anything that is something I don't want
Speaker 3: to do and persevere, I could have that euphoric I
Speaker 3: worked out feeling the whole day. I don't need to
Speaker 3: always do a workout class. I think the workout class
Speaker 3: is just the easiest way to get that feeling done.
Speaker 3: But yesterday I just went to Starbucks and like forced
Speaker 3: myself to write out this that I've been.
Speaker 2: That actually told on the podcast.
Speaker 3: And then someone wrote to me and was like, you
Speaker 3: should make that a stand up bit, and I was like, oh,
Speaker 3: I never even.
Speaker 2: Thought about that.
Speaker 3: So I just wrote that out yesterday and I felt
Speaker 3: so accomplished after doing it. I was like I don't
Speaker 3: need to go hold a plank now, Like that was
Speaker 3: the equivalent for my brain. You just need to do
Speaker 3: one thing a day that you hate it so much.
Speaker 3: And that book that I'm reading about breaking through blocks
Speaker 3: or what, I forget what it's called, that just sounds
Speaker 3: like I think that, but it's just yes, it's telling
Speaker 3: me that, like when you yeah, when even and then
Speaker 3: we all know this, like even just the little like
Speaker 3: every single thing needs to start with someone typing one word.
Speaker 3: Like every movie you've watched was a guy sitting down
Speaker 3: and it was one word at one point.
Speaker 2: It was like it period, like living room.
Speaker 3: Dash, like everything started with one step, and I think
Speaker 3: that we I it's the most dumb, this non profound
Speaker 3: thing I've ever said in my life. But of course,
Speaker 3: like it's just a nice reminder of like I can't
Speaker 3: I can't look at like, oh my god, I've got
Speaker 3: to write twenty more new minutes of stand up. It's like,
Speaker 3: why don't you write twenty seconds? Try that, and that
Speaker 3: will then lead to the next Like everything has to
Speaker 3: be about the it's all or nothing for me. So
Speaker 3: if I can't write twenty new minutes in one sitting,
Speaker 3: I just don't even want to do it.
Speaker 1: The difference between that and like working out, though, is
Speaker 1: like you can't fuck up working out, like if you
Speaker 1: worked out at all, even if it was bad, you're
Speaker 1: always going in the positive direction. You could sit there
Speaker 1: and try to write for like two hours and get
Speaker 1: nothing done and then feel shitty, but you can't go
Speaker 1: to the gym for two hours.
Speaker 2: No, no, I disagree. I think it's this.
Speaker 3: I think it literally is the exact same, because even
Speaker 3: if you're writing complete trash and it's just words that
Speaker 3: you'll never use, you are you're doing the artist's way,
Speaker 3: which is like they always in the artist way. She says,
Speaker 3: to wake up every morning and write three pages of
Speaker 3: just none sense, like just get your dirt out of
Speaker 3: your brain, like get it out, release anything that's not
Speaker 3: like anything you would say. And that is sometimes when
Speaker 3: I go to a class, I'm my hips aren't up,
Speaker 3: I'm not going all the way down on my squat
Speaker 3: like it's it's trash. It is like it feels like
Speaker 3: I accomplished. I almost went backwards in terms of what.
Speaker 1: So wild, because I feel the exact opposite. I feel
Speaker 1: like when I write, if I write trash, I feel
Speaker 1: like I didn't get my hips up during the time.
Speaker 3: It's the same. It is the same thing, but you
Speaker 3: did something getting your hips, like doing it holding a
Speaker 3: plank at all. Without your hips ups, it's still something
Speaker 3: you're like you're getting You're dusting off the shelf in
Speaker 3: order to then take the books off and rearrange it,
Speaker 3: like you're not you. At least you dusted something off.
Speaker 3: You got trash out that needed to get out for
Speaker 3: that good idea to come through.
Speaker 2: Ultimately, do you agree.
Speaker 4: Shot, I completely agree. I feel like with writing especialty,
Speaker 4: like everything could be fixed, Like like even if you
Speaker 4: did something that was completely shitty and you did it
Speaker 4: for like two hours and you hate it when you
Speaker 4: reread it, you can fix anything. Like their delete button
Speaker 4: exists for a reason. And I'm I love rewriting. It's
Speaker 4: my favorite thing in the world.
Speaker 3: But you have to go back and read the thing
Speaker 3: that you wrote. Then see that's the problem for me.
Speaker 2: I want to know.
Speaker 3: I want to just send you guys this story and
Speaker 3: go like what do you think, and then like let's talk,
Speaker 3: Like I don't want to look at it again. I
Speaker 3: want to just I don't I'm not good at reviewing
Speaker 3: ever anything.
Speaker 4: I don't you want to be an old Irish woman
Speaker 4: who throws it into the ocean.
Speaker 3: Yeah, jurn and burn like you. That's what my friend
Speaker 3: Kirsten used to do. She's journal and then she burns it,
Speaker 3: and so it's like yeah, but I mean, I don't,
Speaker 3: I don't know it.
Speaker 1: Just I would love is it. I would love AI
Speaker 1: to be in my pocket and to just be recording
Speaker 1: every single thing I said, especially when I'm hanging with
Speaker 1: my friends and I'm feeling real comfortable, and then just
Speaker 1: to take note of everything I ever said in my life,
Speaker 1: and take note of the times when it's like that
Speaker 1: could be a bit here's what it was written out.
Speaker 2: You just need friends to tell you to fucking write
Speaker 2: shit down.
Speaker 1: Nobody tells me to write shit down.
Speaker 3: That's the problem. We all need to do that more
Speaker 3: for each other. Like Sean, I think I've done it
Speaker 3: to you a bunch on the road where I'm like no,
Speaker 3: I go like, write that down, and then we both
Speaker 3: laugh like we're not really actually good, and I go, no, literally, take.
Speaker 2: Out your phone right now.
Speaker 3: I want to watch you write it down, because it's
Speaker 3: it feels so stupid to just completely derail a conversation
Speaker 3: where you're like just comfortable and relax like you were saying,
Speaker 3: and then like get out your phone and like jot
Speaker 3: it down. But it's you gotta do it, and you
Speaker 3: gotta have friends that are going to force you to
Speaker 3: do it in the same way, like even if you're
Speaker 3: listening and you're not a writer or something like, in
Speaker 3: the same way that like, if your friend looks cute,
Speaker 3: take a fucking picture of them.
Speaker 2: Take a picture of your friend.
Speaker 3: They need it for their socials, they need it for
Speaker 3: their online profile, especially if they're a single guy. Take
Speaker 3: pictures of your single guy friends when they look handsome.
Speaker 3: If you have any kind of photography skill whatsoever, they
Speaker 3: desperately need it.
Speaker 2: It will help them so much. Men don't have pictures
Speaker 2: of themselves.
Speaker 3: So we all need like to encourage each other like hey, wait, no,
Speaker 3: I'm serious, Like you need to do that.
Speaker 2: You should make that into something you know.
Speaker 3: Uh, it's because it just takes a little push. I mean,
Speaker 3: none of us would be doing what we're doing today.
Speaker 3: I think if it was just all reliant on our
Speaker 3: own selves to be like I think I'm good at this,
Speaker 3: I should do this, Like didn't it take someone going like, yeah,
Speaker 3: you're you're like just a little nudge.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm saying it could be AI. All we
Speaker 1: need is an AI assistant to do it doesn't need
Speaker 1: to be We need.
Speaker 4: To just support our friends more. I feel like, I mean,
Speaker 4: I'm like watching like, uh, I completely am done with Twitter.
Speaker 4: I'm never going back on it. Hell yeah, because it's
Speaker 4: way too good. Whoa, it sucks so much. I hate it,
Speaker 4: but everyone is so negative about every little thing. Uh.
Speaker 4: And I feel like through reading that this weekend, I
Speaker 4: was just like, I need to be more supportive of
Speaker 4: all my friends. Like, if they have like a good idea,
Speaker 4: I'm going to push them. I'm not going to take
Speaker 4: a picture of them if they're single. That will That's
Speaker 4: a weird thing for me to introduce to my friend group.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, but I think it would help them honestly, Like,
Speaker 3: if you're like, you look cool, man, I know you.
Speaker 3: You probably can't do that. I can't expect you to
Speaker 3: do that. I mean it would be great if you did,
Speaker 3: because then your friend could find love and like happiness
Speaker 3: in this world.
Speaker 2: But that's okay.
Speaker 4: I want them to. I want them to. It's just
Speaker 4: it's what I've known most of the people I've known
Speaker 4: for like more than fifteen years, and.
Speaker 2: That would be a Drassic shift for you.
Speaker 4: It would. It would make it seem like I just
Speaker 4: got word that I'm getting canceled, and now I'm trying
Speaker 4: to show that up.
Speaker 2: That these people are friends with you. Yeah, you're trying
Speaker 2: to get alibis that's.
Speaker 1: Really good You're getting off Twitter because I'm starting to
Speaker 1: feel like social media is starting to die. I feel like, like,
Speaker 1: for example, Nikki, you have two million followers on Instagram
Speaker 1: right now, a huge compece obviously huge.
Speaker 2: Brian predicted it back in May May.
Speaker 1: I did this. If you did the same exact things,
Speaker 1: like the same exact series of events occurred in twenty fourteen,
Speaker 1: you would have ten m right now, real, without a doubt, Yes,
Speaker 1: without a doubt. Is that ooh, something's going on where
Speaker 1: it's just like people aren't following anymore. I think it's
Speaker 1: probably cause of the algorithm, where you just get served
Speaker 1: things that you want, like there'll be.
Speaker 2: You don't really need to follow anymore.
Speaker 1: You don't need to follow anymore.
Speaker 3: Yeah, although I do because I make it. You know
Speaker 3: that thing you can check where sometimes you're like, why
Speaker 3: am I getting this video? And you press on the
Speaker 3: little three dots and it goes for thirty days only
Speaker 3: give me things I'm following. I mean, he doesn't say that,
Speaker 3: but it's some version of that. Yeah, I click on that,
Speaker 3: and I'm in that right now where I'm not getting
Speaker 3: served any suggestions. I got to go to a explore
Speaker 3: plage page if I want it, and that makes me go, Okay,
Speaker 3: I need to unfollow the things I'm following that I
Speaker 3: don't like, and I need to follow stuff I do want.
Speaker 3: So it should be about curating it to what you like.
Speaker 3: But you're right, like, if you're just going off of
Speaker 3: what they give you, they already know you, they know
Speaker 3: what you want.
Speaker 2: You don't need to follow anyone anymore.
Speaker 1: Here's what happened. This is this is a tragedy beyond comprehension.
Speaker 1: When social media began, it's beyond comprehension.
Speaker 3: Well, try to make us comprehending if it's beyond That's.
Speaker 1: What I tried. When social media began, you would friend
Speaker 1: people and they would friend you back. It was a
Speaker 1: mutual agreement.
Speaker 2: It was friendster, right, it was well, we.
Speaker 1: Have that in Facebook. It was Hey, I'm in your
Speaker 1: social circle, let's be friends. There wasn't followers, and then
Speaker 1: Twitter came along created followers, but still there was a
Speaker 1: lot of follow follow back. It all came to an
Speaker 1: end when social media became less about being social and
Speaker 1: more about being a creator and being followed. And then
Speaker 1: once you were a creator and being followed, then it
Speaker 1: was all about what can I make? And it took
Speaker 1: away the social aspect. And now what's happening that we
Speaker 1: have because we have AI? Mark Zuckerberg just went and
Speaker 1: had this big conference or whatever he was doing where
Speaker 1: he announced that Instagram and Facebook is going to start
Speaker 1: generating more and more AI creators that create content that
Speaker 1: specifically catered towards people, so that people aren't following people anymore,
Speaker 1: they're just following AI.
Speaker 3: Why would you tell us that you're going to do that?
Speaker 3: Who wants that? Who is looking at.
Speaker 1: Because he doesn't know what? So he has no social good?
Speaker 3: But what but he knows what people want? They do
Speaker 3: their focus groups. They know what people want more than anything.
Speaker 3: That's why they're so popular. So why would they think people?
Speaker 3: Do people want AI content?
Speaker 1: You? I think people will want it? What are you
Speaker 1: gonna say Sean.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're begging for people to want it, but I
Speaker 4: don't think they want it. What is happening right now?
Speaker 4: Or there's these like four companies who are going on
Speaker 4: a tour of every company in Silicon Valley telling them
Speaker 4: about how this is the next big thing, and like
Speaker 4: at this point, Mark Zuckerberg and like, uh, they're all
Speaker 4: kind of so detached from reality that they're just believe
Speaker 4: the salesman that is selling it. And I do think
Speaker 4: I'm I'm hoping this all blows up in their face.
Speaker 4: I really think everyone needs to take a gigantic L.
Speaker 3: I don't mind AI when it's like makes Trump, like
Speaker 3: making out with Putin or something, you know, like kind
Speaker 3: of like you know, like, I don't mind clear AI
Speaker 3: things that that's intriguing to me. I also, oh my god,
Speaker 3: I loved the SNL sketch this week about the AI
Speaker 3: podcast Yeah, which was so on point and so good.
Speaker 3: If you've heard any of these AI podcasts, which I did,
Speaker 3: hear mine Spotify this year Spotify Rapped did a uh
Speaker 3: customized podcast for you based on your listening habits. That
Speaker 3: was a girl and guy talking about man Nikki. What
Speaker 3: a year It's been for you. Well, it seems like
Speaker 3: in May you really started listening to a lot of
Speaker 3: pop punk girl like Pilates Princess Beats, and then they
Speaker 3: go and they have like.
Speaker 2: The hmm, I don't know about that. Wow, Well this
Speaker 2: song really resonated.
Speaker 3: It was and Chris and I listened to it and
Speaker 3: we were like, whoa this is It's uncanny, you know,
Speaker 3: like it sounds like two people having a conversation, but
Speaker 3: there's something a little off about it, suspicio.
Speaker 4: It always feels like I don't know if you've ever
Speaker 4: watched like a foreign language thing with the English like
Speaker 4: dub over dubbed.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, that's what it sounds like.
Speaker 4: It always feels that way, where like they're taking away
Speaker 4: the emotion from the seed. So you think every Japanese
Speaker 4: actor is just like super serious at every moment.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my god, I just found out that they're not.
Speaker 3: But they've really parody that paradised a parody that perfectly.
Speaker 3: I thought on SML and I was like, I wonder
Speaker 3: if people haven't heard these like fake podcasts, if they
Speaker 3: would think this is funny. But I thought that was
Speaker 3: it was timide And and Bowen doing the podcast no,
Speaker 3: but I am.
Speaker 2: I just like it, and I thought it was so good.
Speaker 1: The best catch of the night.
Speaker 2: I think, oh, really, that's funny because I was the.
Speaker 1: Last twenty minutes. So if there's a better one at
Speaker 1: the end that there.
Speaker 4: Was a Bangers was a good episode.
Speaker 2: I loved it.
Speaker 4: I thought Timothy really delivered. I'm like, I'm like you, Brian,
Speaker 4: I will die.
Speaker 1: He's so amazing. He's such a great guy and he's
Speaker 1: so charming.
Speaker 3: I loved his musical performances. I thought cool, Yeah, his
Speaker 3: second one, especially where it was just like him talking
Speaker 3: about three men walking down the street, stepping over the
Speaker 3: cracks in the side walk, and then they walk through
Speaker 3: a dust bowl and then they see a girl with
Speaker 3: an umbrella. Like he's like, he was like, it's it's
Speaker 3: you know, he was acting, he's but he was Also
Speaker 3: I won an album from him.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 3: I was totally sold on it. He did a really
Speaker 3: good job. I loved the podcast, the one where they
Speaker 3: were doing men are are scared to go to the
Speaker 3: doctor now and they're getting all their medical information from podcasts.
Speaker 3: So now it's like they're they trick men into like
Speaker 3: thinking they're on a podcast just to go.
Speaker 2: See a doctor.
Speaker 4: It's so funny.
Speaker 2: It's called med Cast. I really recommend you watch it.
Speaker 1: Know that was the best one. But there's another one
Speaker 1: about podcasts that I'm not thinking of.
Speaker 2: No, it was Bowen and Timothy.
Speaker 1: And they were AI, Oh, that's not the one I
Speaker 1: was thinking of. I was thinking of med Cast Cast
Speaker 1: was hilarious. That was my favorite, so good. It was
Speaker 1: the whole SNL evening was kind of like Golden Globes
Speaker 1: codd Like, there was that one joke about Amelia Perez
Speaker 1: and then there was Adam Sandler introduced Timothy.
Speaker 3: So that was so exciting when I babe, Babe because
Speaker 3: Chris was like on his computer and I'm like, because
Speaker 3: it was like I just saw Adam standing there, I'm like,
Speaker 3: I know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 2: He's introducing Timothy Timothy, I think so.
Speaker 3: I think I had heard a rumor that Timothy was
Speaker 3: like at his daughter's bar mid so maybe that was
Speaker 3: another celebrity. But I think they're I think they were
Speaker 3: already butts, I think they already were aware of each other.
Speaker 3: There's no way that Timothy wasn't already an Adam Sandler fan.
Speaker 1: And I can't he loves comedy. Why was Sandler there
Speaker 1: at all?
Speaker 2: He's probably in town And someone at SML was like,
Speaker 2: who you know? I don't know.
Speaker 3: Maybe Timothy asked, I have no I guess I could
Speaker 3: ask a meal and.
Speaker 1: Then he said all he did that night was introduced.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think he just hangs out of SNL when he's
Speaker 3: probably in town and goes to the taping, especially if
Speaker 3: he knows the host.
Speaker 2: And then I think they were probably like everyone was like,
Speaker 2: Nikki Glazer made this happen.
Speaker 3: I don't think. I think it would have happened regardless
Speaker 3: of my thing, but it was still very cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it was super cool.
Speaker 4: Like that always happens when it's the dual performer. They
Speaker 4: always have like a cameo to introduce them, like Juliet
Speaker 4: Fox introduced Charlie X.
Speaker 1: Okay, I didn't know that because the host isn't there
Speaker 1: to introduce the musical guest, so they need a cameo host.
Speaker 1: I see. Yeah, it's also cool. D Lynn Manuel as
Speaker 1: a cameo.
Speaker 3: And he had just to stand and be frozen for
Speaker 3: like four minutes and then they kept calling it out.
Speaker 3: That was so funny. I'm obsessed with SNL right now, Like,
Speaker 3: I love this season. I love watching it. Andrew does dysmutes.
Speaker 3: I always feel like I'm saying his name wrong.
Speaker 2: I was.
Speaker 3: I loved his weekend update where he has a he's
Speaker 3: doing a stand up act. He's like, I've incorporated a
Speaker 3: puppet into it that plays my dad, and the dad
Speaker 3: is like doing dad jokes, and then the dad it
Speaker 3: gets really somber, and the dad just starts telling Andrew
Speaker 3: how proud he is of him and like saying all
Speaker 3: the things that like a male comedian would want to
Speaker 3: hear from their father. And then he like turns it
Speaker 3: on Colin Jos and has started he's being proud of Colin,
Speaker 3: and it's just it's it's so layered and vulnerable and strange,
Speaker 3: and it.
Speaker 2: Was just it. I loved it so much. I'm trying
Speaker 2: to think of there was something.
Speaker 3: There were like a couple of things this weekend that
Speaker 3: I was like, whoa, there was a lot of vulnerability
Speaker 3: behind that that was like almost masquerading as like comedy,
Speaker 3: but it.
Speaker 2: Was almost too.
Speaker 3: It was like even like the Oedipal Arrangements commercial was
Speaker 3: like wild.
Speaker 1: Wow, sexually charged.
Speaker 4: It was so wild to the point where like we
Speaker 4: watch Esenella Nolan on like Sunday morning, and I was like.
Speaker 2: Y yeah, yeah luckily.
Speaker 4: Like yeah, my wife was jerking them off like.
Speaker 2: They got it.
Speaker 3: They were distracted, living out the sketch. Okay, we got
Speaker 3: to go to break a wool talk more after this.
Speaker 3: So would you guys do any this weekend show me?
Speaker 1: Okay, so look at this video of I mean, look
Speaker 1: at this video. Can you see it in my.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's an Ai woman I'm guessing and sitting with
Speaker 3: a selfie.
Speaker 2: She's not real.
Speaker 1: She's not real, But I mean doesn't she look real?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean we've all seen this.
Speaker 1: Okay, But like the thing about it is that in
Speaker 1: all the comments everything.
Speaker 3: The hot girl just kind of posing it taking a selfie,
Speaker 3: you guys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but in all the comments, everyone is like acting
Speaker 1: like she is real. Like there's tons and and I
Speaker 1: go and investigate the accounts of the people who are
Speaker 1: commenting on this, being like you're so beautiful and there
Speaker 1: they seem like real people. They're mostly over forty or older.
Speaker 2: And they have pictures of like off road vehicles in
Speaker 2: a ditch.
Speaker 1: They have pictures of them well, like.
Speaker 3: They're just all they have, like you go to their
Speaker 3: main page and it's just lots of CAMO.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you. Most of them are
Speaker 1: pictures of them with their wife and kid. What and
Speaker 1: they're going, what's up, big, You're so beautiful to these
Speaker 1: AI girls? Way, yes, yes, I did a full fledged
Speaker 1: journalistic investigation of the commenters on the AI influencers.
Speaker 2: Do they think comments aren't like publics?
Speaker 3: I don't even understand why you would do that if
Speaker 3: you had a wife and that you're publicly open with
Speaker 3: on your I.
Speaker 2: Don't get it.
Speaker 1: I don't get it either, and not know that the.
Speaker 2: Girl is AI is it's not saying the thing I.
Speaker 1: Don't think they know. And also two hundred and thirty
Speaker 1: seven thousand followers for this AI bot.
Speaker 4: I just don't think the world is smart enough for
Speaker 4: social media, Like I just don't like my little brother
Speaker 4: follows every hot celebrity and likes their things as if
Speaker 4: they're going to like suck his dick because he threw
Speaker 4: at like Cyddy Sweeney or Brianna chicken Fry.
Speaker 3: It's embarrassing when you see like your male friends liking
Speaker 3: posts of hot girls that they don't.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really embarrassing.
Speaker 3: You see, like I've never seen your guys' names underneath
Speaker 3: stuff that's embarrassing.
Speaker 2: I mean, if.
Speaker 3: You've gotta support Rihanna, you gotta throw Rihanna alike like
Speaker 3: I'm liking is one thing. But I do picture you
Speaker 3: double tapping it with one hand in your dixon the
Speaker 3: other like I do picture her mouth is slightly agape,
Speaker 3: and I know what you look like when you're double
Speaker 3: tapping it as you're either shitting or or touching yourself.
Speaker 2: But it is, uh, it's mindless.
Speaker 3: But I feel like most of that box uh followers
Speaker 3: are probably bots.
Speaker 1: It's like bot body everybody says. And that's why I
Speaker 1: because that's what Ali was saying. She's like, but it's
Speaker 1: just other bots following these accounts. And then I dug in,
Speaker 1: I want to like DM these people because I really
Speaker 1: you can't tell anymore because they might be AI just
Speaker 1: answering back to what you're saying. But right, I don't
Speaker 1: think they're bots. I don't think they're but I think
Speaker 1: they are actual people who just think or don't care.
Speaker 3: I think people are very lonely too, Like I was
Speaker 3: thinking if I was a lonely person, that didn't have
Speaker 3: much going on, and there was a way to simulate
Speaker 3: someone being my boyfriend and texting me, I'd fucking do it,
Speaker 3: you guys.
Speaker 2: I would do it.
Speaker 3: And if I heard that people were like convinced that
Speaker 3: it's their boyfriend, I wouldn't go what idiots. I'd be like,
Speaker 3: I want to be convinced that's my boyfriend. I want
Speaker 3: to feel the feelings Like if I can manufacture that feeling,
Speaker 3: I drink you feel happy. I smoke weed to feel happy,
Speaker 3: I'll fucking do Yeah. With the girl, the brad.
Speaker 2: Pitt, Yeah, the brad pit Ai sure.
Speaker 4: I mean she said the worst photoshops too.
Speaker 3: I think this woman has a she macular degeneration. She
Speaker 3: should get her eyes fixed if she thought that those
Speaker 3: were real. That just makes me concern that people that
Speaker 3: don't have good eyesight are more susceptible.
Speaker 4: Send him like thirty thousand dollars like wild.
Speaker 1: Well, that's the other thing is it's not just that
Speaker 1: they're following them and that they're convinced that they're they're real. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I forgot what I was gonna say, but.
Speaker 3: Well, I know here's what I'll say is that I
Speaker 3: know there are men and women out there who are
Speaker 3: talking to someone that they think is me and they're
Speaker 3: having a personal, private conversation that they think I sought
Speaker 3: them out because they seemed they were in a fan
Speaker 3: group that I thought, you're a real good fan, and
Speaker 3: they are probably sending money to a person they think
Speaker 3: is me because I my manager has all my money. Yes,
Speaker 3: I have lots of money, but I just don't have
Speaker 3: access to it right now because my manager's like he
Speaker 3: his house burned down and the phone that he sends
Speaker 3: me money on was in the like some lie, because
Speaker 3: I know someone that is a normal, intelligent person who
Speaker 3: thinks they're in a relationship online with a celebrity that
Speaker 3: is not a celebrity that would ever seek his such
Speaker 3: a huge celebrity, they would never seek out a relationship
Speaker 3: with someone they found in a Facebook fan group. But
Speaker 3: this is like, this happens, and it's it's definitely, you
Speaker 3: know gear I think these people also do know it's
Speaker 3: not real, but they just let themselves kind of let
Speaker 3: go and believe it because what else they got, you know.
Speaker 3: It's kind of one of those things. But I think
Speaker 3: that's why I had to crack down on not doing
Speaker 3: meet and greets. Anymore, just the idea of someone coming
Speaker 3: up to me and they have had tons of sex
Speaker 3: with me in cyber sex world with whoever's playing me.
Speaker 3: Like there's someone that's sending footpicks to someone and jerking
Speaker 3: them off virtually as me, without question, I would put
Speaker 3: all of my money on it. There's that that's happening,
Speaker 3: because if you go to Matt Rife's Instagram, there are
Speaker 3: people in his comments constantly going like, my friend thinks
Speaker 3: she's talking to you, my friend think my best friend
Speaker 3: is in love with you and is coming to see you,
Speaker 3: like you're sending her nudes, and like there's there's so.
Speaker 2: Many Matt Rife ones.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's these people.
Speaker 3: But there's no amount of posting, hey, I will never
Speaker 3: reach out to you.
Speaker 2: That's not me.
Speaker 3: There's no amount of posting that, even bring it in
Speaker 3: your bio that will make people convince.
Speaker 2: That it's not you.
Speaker 1: I want to hear they want to believe that. If
Speaker 1: you want to believe it, you'll believe it.
Speaker 3: I can't be meeting people that think that they've had
Speaker 3: a relationship with me. It's two it's two strange, too crazy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I remember what I was gonna say the
Speaker 1: thing if you believe that the person's real and you're
Speaker 1: interacting with them. These guys that are interacting with these
Speaker 1: AI influencer girls, they don't realize that the person that
Speaker 1: is creating this AI girl is probably some weird guy.
Speaker 1: So you're jerking off to like the creation of some
Speaker 1: weird guy who's making these oration of some weird guy.
Speaker 4: No, I mean, but you're one hundred percent right, Brian.
Speaker 4: And I think that's why I'm not susceptible to it
Speaker 4: is because when I got AOL in nineteen ninety five,
Speaker 4: me and my friends would constantly pretend to be lesbians
Speaker 4: and other boys pretending to be lesbians.
Speaker 2: That's all it was.
Speaker 3: It was so exciting age sex location, talking about penises
Speaker 3: asl pretend. Oh my god, it was. It was amazing.
Speaker 3: Man sl Sean, you though, you you won't eat white
Speaker 3: sauces because it reminds you of semen like so you're
Speaker 3: so not only will you not takes of your male
Speaker 3: friends or converse with a bot that might be made
Speaker 3: by a man, you are so.
Speaker 2: Terrified of any you won't You.
Speaker 3: Do not like white sauces. You don't like an alfredo,
Speaker 3: you won't do a cheese dip. You won't like a
Speaker 3: white cheese dip.
Speaker 1: Milk red I don't like milk do we won't drink
Speaker 1: a glass of milk.
Speaker 4: I won't drink a glass of milk.
Speaker 1: Tahi.
Speaker 2: You've never had a falaffel in Tahini?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: Not even?
Speaker 2: What about toothpaste?
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you do with that? You gotta go
Speaker 1: Crest blue.
Speaker 2: You have to stripe through it. Real, dude, that's so funny.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: And I'm guessing you don't like use lotions. I don't
Speaker 3: really even need lotions.
Speaker 4: I feel like at this and I need them, then
Speaker 4: I'm gonna start doing them. I thing.
Speaker 2: It's so funny.
Speaker 3: Men start doing like I think I need an under
Speaker 3: ie cream around forty is when, and women start around
Speaker 3: seventeen months.
Speaker 2: It's crazy we start so young.
Speaker 3: Like Chris for the first time was like, I think,
Speaker 3: like my under eyes might need Like what would I do?
Speaker 3: And I'm like, there's literally six million products that could
Speaker 3: address that.
Speaker 1: I love a good under eye cream. I love when
Speaker 1: it tingles. What's that?
Speaker 2: I don't know?
Speaker 1: I mean I know what. I used to have this
Speaker 1: under eye cream that you put on the bags of
Speaker 1: your eyes and it tingled, and I don't think think.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's probably.
Speaker 2: Good for you putting it in your eye or just
Speaker 2: under because.
Speaker 1: Under your eye er to make your bags go away,
Speaker 1: and it didn't take my bag exactly.
Speaker 3: It doesn't know makes makes of surgery. Can we get
Speaker 3: on board with that?
Speaker 2: Girls?
Speaker 3: Nothing and maybe lymphatic drainage. But no one wants to
Speaker 3: rub your face for thirty minutes in the morning. I've
Speaker 3: saved a million videos teaching me how to do it.
Speaker 3: You rub behind your ears first to least the drains
Speaker 3: to a sweeping guash emotion. It does work if you
Speaker 3: want to deepuff your face, but it takes way too long.
Speaker 3: There's no cream that will deep uff your eyes. They
Speaker 3: just is the way they ish.
Speaker 2: Last night, I like had a.
Speaker 3: I like almost started. I was like, had a you know,
Speaker 3: I was just in moody. I guess I don't know.
Speaker 3: I had just eaten a whole bag of skinny pop
Speaker 3: by myself, and like that's not a huge deal, but
Speaker 3: it's not great, Like, you know, I just half a
Speaker 3: bag is usually what I like to do per sitting.
Speaker 3: It's like I think two and a half three servings,
Speaker 3: you know, and then I do polish off the bag
Speaker 3: the next sitting, but one sitting for one bag, it's
Speaker 3: not great. I didn't feel good. I already it was
Speaker 3: not I just felt disgusting, and I was like I
Speaker 3: just was like crumpled it up and like told Chris like, well,
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna be fat tomorrow, and like just was
Speaker 3: like trying kind of to taunt him to say that
Speaker 3: I'm not, you know, but he didn't like take the bait,
Speaker 3: and and then I like kind of and we were
Speaker 3: also watching Celebrity Jeopardy, and I think that's why I
Speaker 3: ate the whole bag, because I was imagining being on
Speaker 3: Celebrity Jeopardy because I do want to do it at
Speaker 3: some point. And I was playing along and Chris was
Speaker 3: getting them all so much faster than me, and I
Speaker 3: was also like I got to say, what is who is?
Speaker 2: When?
Speaker 3: You know, like I have to do the right way
Speaker 3: because I need to get start practicing right. So he's
Speaker 3: beating He's not even doing those things, but he's also
Speaker 3: beating me to it anyway, and so I'm like, I'm
Speaker 3: so dumb.
Speaker 2: And then a question came up that was, you know, essentially,
Speaker 2: the question was.
Speaker 3: What is the most populous city in Brazil And what
Speaker 3: would you guys have said, Priscilia. Yeah, that's a great guest, Sean,
Speaker 3: it's not right, Brian.
Speaker 1: What would you guess?
Speaker 3: I don't know what that city, has never even heard
Speaker 3: of it in my life. It's San Paulo salpa Is
Speaker 3: it San Paulo sal Polo? Okay, I would accountable. Well,
Speaker 3: that's that's amazing. I'm I'm I was saying I've never
Speaker 3: even heard of that to insult me, not you, by
Speaker 3: the way, I knew you knew what you were talking about.
Speaker 3: I said Buenos Aires because I'm an idiot, and I
Speaker 3: just figured that's in Brazil.
Speaker 2: I just picked a you know, a city in South America.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And man, I just was like, what if I
Speaker 3: said that on TV? And Chris is like okay, and
Speaker 3: I go like, that is so dumb, Like that's Argentina, right,
Speaker 3: And he's like yeah, I'm like, oh my god, Like
Speaker 3: I can't be on the show, Like what if I
Speaker 3: say something so dumb you know where You're just like
Speaker 3: and that's not like And then all I wanted him
Speaker 3: to say, do you ever like, are you ever trying
Speaker 3: to get an answer out of your significant other that's
Speaker 3: gonna make you feel better, but they just like won't
Speaker 3: give it to you. All I really wanted him to
Speaker 3: say was like, that's not that dumb nikki, Like it's
Speaker 3: a South American city, like it's you know, you know,
Speaker 3: it's if you haven't been there or whatever, it's fine.
Speaker 3: But instead he was just like, that question is not
Speaker 3: gonna come up. And he's like and he's like, people
Speaker 3: won't remember Seth Green lost. He was just out, as
Speaker 3: long as you're having fun, it's gonna be great. I'm like,
Speaker 3: this is not what I want to hear. So I like,
Speaker 3: I'm in bed just like I'm just so stupid. I
Speaker 3: can't go on that show and I'm not gonna embarrass
Speaker 3: myself in front of everyone. And he's like, you haven't
Speaker 3: even been asked, and I'm like pouting in bed. Do
Speaker 3: you ever have those moments where you just become overly
Speaker 3: I guess you guys aren't women, so you probably don't.
Speaker 3: But you're gonna start getting more estrogen, so you might
Speaker 3: start like where you get emotional about a thing that's
Speaker 3: not even happening, and like, I just I have this.
Speaker 3: And then I was actually talking to Taylor at lunch
Speaker 3: the other day about fears and her fear because she's
Speaker 3: a I forget what nyagram she is, but she has
Speaker 3: a fear of being stupid, of someone like seeing that
Speaker 3: she's not as intelligent as she is. And Chris's fear
Speaker 3: is being incompetent and not being able to help, like
Speaker 3: breaking his legs or something, and like not being able
Speaker 3: to be the person that can get you something and help.
Speaker 3: And I was talking to Taylor about my fear and
Speaker 3: I'm like, my fear is like not being like not
Speaker 3: reaching my potential is my fear because I'm a three.
Speaker 3: But I don't really fear being stupid. So I even
Speaker 3: said this at lunch on Friday. I was like, Ah,
Speaker 3: I don't care if people know I'm not intelligent, So
Speaker 3: then why did I freak out about this Buenos Aires thing?
Speaker 3: I don't even know, So maybe my fear is being unintelligent.
Speaker 1: Well, if you're if you're basing it off of the enneagram,
Speaker 1: then it's because you're the being on Celebrity Jeopardy in
Speaker 1: and of itself as a performance, and if you get
Speaker 1: an answer wrong, you're performing poorly, and.
Speaker 4: The yeah, you're not reaching your potential of winning Celebrity Jeopardy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I do. Yeah, yes, okay, that's a good point.
Speaker 3: But I also I do feel like some there are
Speaker 3: certain things where if you don't know them, people just
Speaker 3: go what yeah, and then they question everything about you,
Speaker 3: like you didn't know that. Like I have that kind
Speaker 3: of idea in my head where it's like.
Speaker 1: You didn't know eggs came from tens. You feel I
Speaker 1: came from.
Speaker 3: Chicken kind of Yeah, yeah, I think, yeah, I mean
Speaker 3: it is a type of chicken, so it's still technically true.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I think in my way, I'm like, I think
Speaker 4: I'm technically right that I feel right now.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I I feel I feel like you know, like
Speaker 3: I just but but here's what Chris said to me.
Speaker 3: He was like the oh, this was the the thing
Speaker 3: that I was like, that's not what I want to
Speaker 3: hear you. He goes listen going on Celebrity Jeopardy, it's
Speaker 3: incredibly brave. Most celebrities don't do it because they don't
Speaker 3: want to look stupid. They're so obsessed with their image
Speaker 3: and and and accidentally saying saying buenos aires instead of
Speaker 3: sal paul that Paulo, sal Paulo, Yeah, thank you that
Speaker 3: they that they fear looking dumb, Like I know that
Speaker 3: one of the smartest people I think that exists wouldn't
Speaker 3: be a lifeline for me when I did Who wants
Speaker 3: to be a millionaire celebrity wouldn't even a lifeline that
Speaker 3: I call right, because he said that he prides himself
Speaker 3: so much on that that it would be too embarrassing.
Speaker 2: Like he's been asked to do.
Speaker 3: Every single like smart person celebrity thing and he will
Speaker 3: do none of them because it is.
Speaker 2: Too too terrifying.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you guys who later, But it's literally one
Speaker 3: of the smartest people that's probably ever existed in our industry,
Speaker 3: and he won't do anything. It's the same way that
Speaker 3: Anya won't sing karaoke, even though she's the best singer
Speaker 3: in the room. She doesn't want to do the thing
Speaker 3: on a stage that could potentially in front of novices
Speaker 3: make her look just like everyone else.
Speaker 2: I maybe that's why I don't want on.
Speaker 4: Top of that, like where Honestly, whenever I've been in
Speaker 4: a karaoke and somebody really fucking goes for it and
Speaker 4: like crushes it, like and they clearly are a professional singer. Yeah,
Speaker 4: everyone I'm with is kind of like, oh, so they
Speaker 4: just come here to feel better about themselves, Like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you do ride that line of like being a
Speaker 3: show off because you are a professional.
Speaker 2: But I'm sorry, if you're.
Speaker 3: A professional, get up there and be professor. I want
Speaker 3: to see a good performance. We've heard rap all night. Like,
Speaker 3: I will never begrudge someone that, but I think that
Speaker 3: people do fear like having if you're getting up there
Speaker 3: for every other song.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you're going against your will, like oh,
Speaker 2: I guess and then you nail it. Come on, honey,
Speaker 2: you gotta show off your skills.
Speaker 3: It's I'm always like, God, if I had Anya's voice,
Speaker 3: I would be doing karaoke every fucking night, just for myself,
Speaker 3: you know, like just to hear what I'm capable of.
Speaker 3: It's it's wild to me that Noah sits there and
Speaker 3: like knows how to play guitar really really well and
Speaker 3: just like doesn't like it's it's crazy to me when
Speaker 3: people have like a talent that they work so hard
Speaker 3: to get and then they just let it.
Speaker 2: They don't do you do it for you.
Speaker 1: That's because you're a three. You don't get it, you
Speaker 1: just do it for you. It's like it's like meditative
Speaker 1: and calming, and it's you get that self satisfaction.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, but even for yourself.
Speaker 3: But I guess I guess you're right. Like I was
Speaker 3: practicing guitar yesterday and I was just really struggling with
Speaker 3: it because I'm like, I can't go live because I
Speaker 3: have it's it's too my. If someone will screen record it,
Speaker 3: it'll end up on something. It's too embarrassing. So I
Speaker 3: can't go live anymore. So there's my old my old
Speaker 3: way practicing just like Bestie's watching is just done.
Speaker 2: And then I was like, this sucks. I don't even
Speaker 2: one way doing this for the dogs. Don't give a shit.
Speaker 3: And then I heard Chris like kind of like he
Speaker 3: was cleaning the apartment and I was just in my
Speaker 3: room with the door shut, and I was like, I'm
Speaker 3: just gonna perform for Chris.
Speaker 2: He doesn't even know it, but he's just gonna have to.
Speaker 2: I want. My goal is to have him go like, Wow,
Speaker 2: she's getting better.
Speaker 3: And I like imagined him in the next room being like, wait,
Speaker 3: Nikki's actually really improving at this. Yeah, Like that's the
Speaker 3: only way I got through the practice session. If he
Speaker 3: wouldn't have been there, I would have just put on
Speaker 3: my guitar and taken a nap. Are you the same way, Sean?
Speaker 3: Do you you have your three? You have to like
Speaker 3: do some in front of people.
Speaker 4: Always, Like, honestly, being alone is just not working.
Speaker 2: You're never alone though, right.
Speaker 3: You wake up your son sometimes just to have an audience.
Speaker 4: Yeah, a little bit like reaction I need, Yeah, like
Speaker 4: I need a reaction. Like my therapist told me that
Speaker 4: I equate positive validation with and negative validation the same
Speaker 4: exact way. And I have had to overcome the negative
Speaker 4: validation part because I would be like I would love
Speaker 4: to like shit on people, because I was getting the
Speaker 4: same feeling as I was.
Speaker 3: Wait, good, Wait, so you gossiping or like being mean
Speaker 3: or like talking shit about people gives you the same
Speaker 3: feeling as because it's like because it's connective. It's like
Speaker 3: it makes people go yeah and interested in what you're
Speaker 3: gonna say next. You have some great gossip, Like it's
Speaker 3: currency for connection.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and like she she correctly identified the fact that
Speaker 4: I will needle my mom to get her to freak out,
Speaker 4: and that is just as good as a law.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's interesting. I do relate to that of
Speaker 2: like if just.
Speaker 3: Needed I don't know, not with my family as much,
Speaker 3: but definitely and not I don't know. I'm that's why
Speaker 3: I sent you the I sent you both, I think,
Speaker 3: uh separately. The Sam Harris podcast that was the most
Speaker 3: recent one, Yeah, I got.
Speaker 1: I think it's a second most I'm imagining you sent
Speaker 1: it to Sean and I both for different reasons.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: I won't let me think about that for a second,
Speaker 3: because it was really just about It was pretty much
Speaker 3: a pitch for his meditation app, which he does he
Speaker 3: makes money off of, but he's really just doing it for.
Speaker 2: The betterment of the world. I do believe that.
Speaker 3: And so it was a podcast about why it's important
Speaker 3: to meditate, especially in this time kind of given what's
Speaker 3: going on and the fires and politics and everything. And
Speaker 3: then it uh it then he played a kind of
Speaker 3: meditation kind of just talk that I thought was like
Speaker 3: really interesting and just reminded me of why I need
Speaker 3: to start medicating again. And I thought, oh, you know
Speaker 3: what like these Yeah, I think Brian, I pitched it
Speaker 3: to you because I feel like it's the one modality
Speaker 3: I haven't heard you.
Speaker 1: Try yet, like meditating.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like in terms of like all of your kind
Speaker 3: of psychosomatic stuff like I did. I've never I'm sure
Speaker 3: you have, but I hadn't heard you try a meditation practice.
Speaker 1: I've tried it, but not with like the exclusive, uh
Speaker 1: goal of solving my problems. I used to do it
Speaker 1: just like because I thought it was supposed to be
Speaker 1: good for you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well I think it solve your problem.
Speaker 1: Isn't there another Harris?
Speaker 3: Dan Harris, Dan Harris, he does, he's like the fifteen
Speaker 3: percent happier.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I fifteen percent happier back I don't know if
Speaker 1: it's ten years ago. And I used his app and
Speaker 1: I started doing that back in the day. And then
Speaker 1: Sam Harris came along and confused the hell out of me,
Speaker 1: and then I got so upset that I stopped meditating
Speaker 1: all together.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is why you need to meditate. It like
Speaker 4: you have to separate the Harrises.
Speaker 3: And I think I said it to Sean because I
Speaker 3: thought that Sean just is I think it would wake
Speaker 3: up something.
Speaker 2: And Sean said that he didn't. I don't even know
Speaker 2: that Sean has.
Speaker 3: Even gotten like I think for my my version of
Speaker 3: what Sean, you probably have never even attempted meditation.
Speaker 2: If I would guess and it's something that you're like,
Speaker 2: I want to, but I wouldn't, and then I thought
Speaker 2: it might sell it on you.
Speaker 4: I want to so bad and every time I've tried,
Speaker 4: I've just talked shit about it in my head. And
Speaker 4: then listening to Sam Harris break that down and be
Speaker 4: like he basically was telling me that I'm not special
Speaker 4: and we all do this when we're meditating, yes, And
Speaker 4: that was like a really I needed to hear that,
Speaker 4: because every time I've ever talked to somebody about meditation,
Speaker 4: they're always just like, you just got to like quiet
Speaker 4: the voice in your head, and I'm like, no, I
Speaker 4: like it better when.
Speaker 3: The guy shit, We all yeah, and that your voice
Speaker 3: is that's meditating is like being like, this is dumb
Speaker 3: what am I doing? And then you go, oh wait,
Speaker 3: I'm meditating and then you go to the breath for
Speaker 3: literally two seconds, and then you go, oh, this is
Speaker 3: dumb again, and then it's just like that I always
Speaker 3: remember from my TM class and I won't share anything
Speaker 3: else because it's super secret. But the part that really
Speaker 3: makes your brain go to like this deeper level is
Speaker 3: the moment you go, I'm meditating. Let me go back
Speaker 3: to the breath and that can literally last two seconds.
Speaker 3: But they used to do draw an example of like
Speaker 3: a diver, you know, like when you would squeeze those
Speaker 3: two leaders. Remember we made those in like fourth grade.
Speaker 3: You squeeze a two liter bottle of soda and there's
Speaker 3: like little diver that goes down.
Speaker 2: Can you remember that.
Speaker 3: I can imagine when you squeeze it, the pressure would
Speaker 3: make it go down.
Speaker 1: I never one, but you know what I'm saying, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you painted a great picture.
Speaker 3: When you squeeze it, the diver goes down automatically. And
Speaker 3: that's what they gave an example of, is like that's
Speaker 3: your mind going down, like when you when you go, oh,
Speaker 3: I'm meditating back to the breath, it goes down and
Speaker 3: then you get into the subconscious and it just gets
Speaker 3: the grime out of your brain. And I'm anyway, I'm
Speaker 3: like back on the track. I meditated today, and I
Speaker 3: would say out of the twenty minutes, I sat there
Speaker 3: in silence trying to say my mantra because I'm doing
Speaker 3: TM right now instead of breath meditation. But but it's
Speaker 3: the same thing, like you're just focusing on something that's repetitive.
Speaker 3: I probably was focused on the mantra for like thirty
Speaker 3: seconds of the twenty minutes. But that is still meditating.
Speaker 3: That is what meditating is. Don't get it in your
Speaker 3: head that meditating is like sitting there with no thoughts.
Speaker 3: It is constant thoughts. And I was able to just
Speaker 3: like think about some stuff for the day and like
Speaker 3: kind of go over my life and like you just
Speaker 3: when do you ever sit alone with your thoughts? And
Speaker 3: and aren't looking at us? Like when do you just
Speaker 3: sit what alone with your thoughts and nothing else? Literally
Speaker 3: at the dentist.
Speaker 1: The reason why I don't, I think I don't meditate
Speaker 1: it because I do my DNRS rounds, which is like
Speaker 1: you are. You are sitting in a dark room and
Speaker 1: you do wind up thinking about things and that's like
Speaker 1: you're supposed to go to a different, like more positive place.
Speaker 1: But so that's why I haven't really engaged in it.
Speaker 1: But I mean it's something that I could try. One
Speaker 1: thing I really liked about what you sent me was
Speaker 1: this concept of the voice in your head that's with
Speaker 1: you and that talks to you all day.
Speaker 2: That's following you around like an incessant toddler.
Speaker 1: Like like a maine. It's like this main act. Yeah, me,
Speaker 1: like a maniac is following you into every room of
Speaker 1: your house and telling you how shitty you are twenty
Speaker 1: four to seven. What would you do if that was happening?
Speaker 3: That's that was such a great way of describing your
Speaker 3: inner monologue. Yeah, like the shit talking that goes on,
Speaker 3: Like you would just be like shut the fack, like
Speaker 3: you want to get away from it, but like we don't.
Speaker 3: We don't detach that voice from ourselves. That's essentially what
Speaker 3: meditating is is like finding a way to take the
Speaker 3: thoughts and not make them who you are. Yeah, Like
Speaker 3: they're just these things that are thrust on you, like
Speaker 3: the rain falling. Like the rain isn't you because it
Speaker 3: hits your head. The rain is just something coming from
Speaker 3: another place.
Speaker 1: WHOA.
Speaker 3: If you are able to look at your thoughts like
Speaker 3: rain droplets and just be like ah, like kind of
Speaker 3: block them or just see them and go, ha, that's
Speaker 3: not me.
Speaker 2: I'm not the rain. It's just a thing that's all me,
Speaker 2: then you were.
Speaker 3: Able to navigate all of like all of the bullshit
Speaker 3: and focus on things that matter more.
Speaker 1: That's the problem, because when it rains on my head,
Speaker 1: I do think I'm the rain.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, why do I do that?
Speaker 1: There?
Speaker 2: We gotta go to break. We'll be back up with this.
Speaker 3: Did you guys watch anything cool or do anything fun
Speaker 3: this weekend?
Speaker 4: We went to the We went to see The Wizard
Speaker 4: of Oz in theaters.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I saw you post about this.
Speaker 4: It was so cool. It was so great. It was packed.
Speaker 4: It was at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's it's huge, right, The egypt Theater is a
Speaker 2: huge one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's gigantic. It's like very old. And it
Speaker 4: was like in celebration because it was David Lynch's favorite
Speaker 4: movie and we took no one to see it and
Speaker 4: it was like it was amazing, and it honestly unlocked
Speaker 4: so much in my head in terms of storytelling. It
Speaker 4: really The Wizard of Oz is a perfect movie. There's
Speaker 4: no fat there's no tension. It is just a sprint
Speaker 4: the entire time. Every scene is iconic to the point
Speaker 4: where like you know exactly what's gonna happen, but they've
Speaker 4: never they're like the big build up to, Like the
Speaker 4: battle between Drothy and the Wicked Witch is twenty five
Speaker 4: seconds long. There's no like marveling it up of like
Speaker 4: eight minutes of like picking sides. It just happens and
Speaker 4: you're okay with it, and it moves on to the
Speaker 4: next thing. It's just always sprinting, and it's just there's
Speaker 4: no fat. It's incredible.
Speaker 3: I think I really have an aversion to it for
Speaker 3: some reason, because I think I saw at a young
Speaker 3: age and I was scared of those monkeys, and I
Speaker 3: just was scared of any kind of scariness in a movie,
Speaker 3: or any kind of like darkness in a movie. I Pinocchio,
Speaker 3: I was screaming, crying when the whale showed up.
Speaker 2: I don't even know.
Speaker 3: I will not very visit Pinocchio too for that Pinocchio.
Speaker 3: Pinocchio for the same reason. But I guess I gotta
Speaker 3: the Wizard of Oz again. It's if if it's like
Speaker 3: a lesson in movie making and storytelling. I'm trying to
Speaker 3: you know, it's you're not wasting your time watching things.
Speaker 3: If you are someone that wants to create things, consuming
Speaker 3: the things you want to create is actually work. And
Speaker 3: I remember when I was watching some video about writing
Speaker 3: a song, when I was like, God, I just want
Speaker 3: to write one song.
Speaker 2: This guy was like, you don't need to feel like
Speaker 2: a novice.
Speaker 3: If you've listened to music your whole life, you've been
Speaker 3: like preparing for this moment. You don't need to be
Speaker 3: like I don't know what I'm doing, so like when
Speaker 3: I'm watching things, man, So it's so inspiring to consume
Speaker 3: TV shows that are good. That's why I'm like trying
Speaker 3: to watch good stuff and not just like crap, because man,
Speaker 3: I love Gordon Ramsey. I love Hell's Kitchen, I fucking
Speaker 3: or kitchen Nightmares. I love watching a business struggling. A
Speaker 3: guy comes in, yells at some people. There's a brother
Speaker 3: and a son, and the families is strange, and then
Speaker 3: they hug and cry over a grill. It's like, I
Speaker 3: fuck love it. But I realized that we went back
Speaker 3: and I was like, Chris, let's go back and watch
Speaker 3: last season. I don't think we've finished it. And I
Speaker 3: pick a one that we haven't seen and we're watching
Speaker 3: it and Chris is like, we saw this, and I'm
Speaker 3: like we did, and I'm like, I'm it's all completely
Speaker 3: new to me and I go, oh my.
Speaker 2: God, it does. It's trash. It goes in one ear
Speaker 2: and out the other.
Speaker 3: I've seen this already, kind of recently, and I can't
Speaker 3: keep watching these things that aren't giving me sustenance. It's
Speaker 3: like eating a blow pop for lunch, Like that's not
Speaker 3: going to fill me up. It's delicious and I get
Speaker 3: to chew on it a little bit and I get
Speaker 3: this little stick and I get to non but essentially
Speaker 3: it's not giving me anything good. So I have to
Speaker 3: force myself to watch things that are maybe a little
Speaker 3: bit more tedious, not as exciting. But I I I'm
Speaker 3: now Chris and I are like, because we want to
Speaker 3: write a movie and make a movie. We're like doing
Speaker 3: every night we watch a movie, and that's like our
Speaker 3: new thing, which sounds like.
Speaker 2: It's it's it's honestly work. I have to be honest
Speaker 2: because this is the life.
Speaker 1: For agrees with you, because you could write off all
Speaker 1: those movies he purchases that you're if you're renting it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 4: I always think about this because like, oh, when it
Speaker 4: was in my early thirties, I was like, what if
Speaker 4: I just like go back to school and go to
Speaker 4: like film school. And then I listened to this interview
Speaker 4: or read this interview with Paul Thomas Anderson, who's like
Speaker 4: one of my favorite directors, and he said he went
Speaker 4: to film school for two weeks and he realized that
Speaker 4: they weren't. They were focusing so much on stuff that
Speaker 4: he did not care about that he was like, I've
Speaker 4: seen most of this and I could just watch every
Speaker 4: movie and just learn what to do from them. And
Speaker 4: that's what he did, and he's become like the greatest
Speaker 4: director of his entire generation.
Speaker 1: And with YouTube, now you don't you really don't need
Speaker 1: to go to school for almost any reason. No anything
Speaker 1: you want from the experts.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the master class. Martin Scorsese teaches a master class
Speaker 4: and it tells you everything you need to know about directing,
Speaker 4: and then Ron Howard teaches one and to teach you everything.
Speaker 2: You need to know about the master classes. Are they fun?
Speaker 4: They're fun. They're fun. It's great. Get a subscription, it's
Speaker 4: it's great.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I want to add Okay, I want to do those,
Speaker 3: but this weekend, but I'm just going back and watching
Speaker 3: things that I've already seen. I watch Friends with Money,
Speaker 3: which is on Netflix. I think it's Jennifer Aniston and
Speaker 3: Francis McDormand and Joan Cusack and they're all friends and
Speaker 3: they're all rich. And then Jennifer Aniston is the poor one,
Speaker 3: and it's just a good movie with good dialogue, good relationships.
Speaker 3: I just I think I love seeing Jennifer Aniston as
Speaker 3: like a poor person. I love the good girl. I
Speaker 3: think that's fun. I think that's what I want to
Speaker 3: do for a movie. I want to play like someone
Speaker 3: not poor, but like someone who's just like works so
Speaker 3: the cash register, like I think like imagining, because for
Speaker 3: a while I was like, I gotta play me, so
Speaker 3: it's gotta be someone that's like doing a like moving
Speaker 3: and shaking and like doing a job that is like
Speaker 3: requires a lot of energy and skill and talent and
Speaker 3: all this. And it's like, but I could have just
Speaker 3: not done those things and I'd still be the same person.
Speaker 3: What if I was the person that didn't discover stand
Speaker 3: up comedy, I wouldn't become an actress. I wasn't good enough,
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have found some other path. I would have
Speaker 3: just gone the corporate route. Like what happens if my
Speaker 3: best person, who I am, ends up in those places?
Speaker 3: And I think that's kind of what I see Jennifer
Speaker 3: Aniston do. It's like she is herself, but she's just
Speaker 3: it's like as if she was living a different life,
Speaker 3: and that to me is really interesting.
Speaker 4: It's so much more interesting. I mean, I feel like
Speaker 4: everything about Hollywood, Like obviously, when you're sitting down to write,
Speaker 4: you're like, what do I know about you? Always kind
Speaker 4: of go to that, But like when you watch like
Speaker 4: those romantic comedies, very sparticularly from like the nineties and
Speaker 4: early two thousands, everyone's job is like so it's like
Speaker 4: I'm an editor of a magazine, Like I'm a high
Speaker 4: powered PR person, Like I'm a corporate lawyer. Like it's
Speaker 4: so weird. Like it's just like they went through a
Speaker 4: list of jobs and they're like, oh, I could have
Speaker 4: done that, Like that's what it to school for.
Speaker 1: And generally you don't get into the minutia of the
Speaker 1: job anyways, Like you don't have to know like how
Speaker 1: to be a corporate lawyer in order to write it
Speaker 1: into a script, because they're not going to have like
Speaker 1: a corporate loss scenes.
Speaker 2: Probably because of what women want.
Speaker 3: When Helen Hunt, who I thought I kind of looked
Speaker 3: like and was like, maybe that's the woman I'm going
Speaker 3: to turn into. I wanted to be at an ad agency,
Speaker 3: and I wanted to wear nude power suits with like
Speaker 3: a pencil skirt and give presentations on boards and be
Speaker 3: carrying around a briefcase and have a walk up apartment
Speaker 3: like I you know, you just like, but you're right,
Speaker 3: So what is the deal now, Sean? So you don't
Speaker 3: need to pick a job that you know, you can
Speaker 3: just pick like anything.
Speaker 4: You can pick anything. I feel like there's a whole
Speaker 4: new way of doing things, especially because everything is filled
Speaker 4: in the bulgaria that you could just kind of like,
Speaker 4: but I do think like, you know, like the the
Speaker 4: director Sean Baker with like he's exclusively focuses on like
Speaker 4: sex work and stuff like that has really opened up
Speaker 4: every job is just now you could do anything. Okay.
Speaker 1: You can also.
Speaker 4: Longer have to be a bakery owner, right.
Speaker 1: A great way to do it is this is something
Speaker 1: you're already really good at. Is if there's a job
Speaker 1: that you're just like interested in portraying in a script,
Speaker 1: just go on Reddit and find those people on Reddit
Speaker 1: and just dig into the world for like a week,
Speaker 1: and then you'll have enough information to be able to
Speaker 1: write that really idea.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's that's I'll maybe do that. I also watched.
Speaker 3: Final thought I watched. I can't recommend enough Sidewalks of
Speaker 3: New York. It's amazing, that is. I think it's on
Speaker 3: Paramount Plus for a couple more days. You should really
Speaker 3: watch it.
Speaker 2: What did we watched? Oh, last night was the football game?
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've were amiss to not mention that the AFC
Speaker 1: and NFC championships happened and we are now facing in
Speaker 1: two weeks the probably two most hated teams in all
Speaker 1: of NFL facing off against each other in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: How do you guys feel about those wins yesterday and
Speaker 3: what was your experience watching those games?
Speaker 4: I was rooting so hard for the Bills, like I've.
Speaker 2: Never rooted for anything more like.
Speaker 4: When they when they lost, I genuinely I felt it
Speaker 4: as if I was like a lifelong Builts fan.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, which is not hard to imagine. It's like
Speaker 1: being a Mets fan.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's well, uh yeah, that was a good game, though,
Speaker 3: I mean it felt like things could have gone into
Speaker 3: a different direction till you know, the last couple of minutes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a good game. And then the refs.
Speaker 1: I feel like I just felt like the refs were
Speaker 1: wanted the Chiefs to win, even though I know that
Speaker 1: there's not some conspiracy theory there were, like the NFL
Speaker 1: wants wouldn't.
Speaker 2: The NFL want the Chiefs to go to the super Bowl?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: What if?
Speaker 3: There it's there's there's nothing conspiratorial about this. You look
Speaker 3: at a business, it's a business, and one of the
Speaker 3: businesses is set to you know, it is set to
Speaker 3: set a record and make history.
Speaker 2: And also Taylor Swift might be there.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: You want they are actually a great team. Obviously that too,
Speaker 3: But like it's you can feel the pull of the
Speaker 3: universe that is the NFL wanting the Chiefs to go
Speaker 3: all the way? Why wouldn't you It's like they're on
Speaker 3: every fucking commercial.
Speaker 2: You don't see any Eagles players on commercial.
Speaker 1: You don't see any but you don't see one.
Speaker 3: Okay, fine, possibly, but you don't see bills. I don't
Speaker 3: see Josh Allen on the single commercial.
Speaker 1: Not unless you're in a local Buffalo area.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: National commercials, I don't see any. Uh what challengers is that?
Speaker 3: The Commanders? I don't see them?
Speaker 2: Do you? I'm really asking.
Speaker 4: No, I think you will?
Speaker 3: Daniel start in, Jayden, Dan, why wouldn't you want the
Speaker 3: star the biggest stars in the country and the world
Speaker 3: who are on every other commercial, to then go the
Speaker 3: next step and play.
Speaker 1: And there were a couple of plays, like a couple
Speaker 1: of key plays that the refs get to decide, like
Speaker 1: where the ball is placed at the end of the play.
Speaker 1: And there was like, I would say, two or three
Speaker 1: plays wherever it felt like every single time the refs
Speaker 1: just placed the Bill's ball just short of the first
Speaker 1: down line, when it was like I think that was
Speaker 1: a first down and it's like, no, it's just short.
Speaker 1: And two of those times it resulted in a turnover.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, but aren't these things exact? Aren't these things
Speaker 3: you would think objective?
Speaker 1: There were a couple of times even the announcers they're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: the phantom flag that was picked up.
Speaker 2: The flag and then it was gone.
Speaker 4: The bill were talking about it and they were like, oh, actually,
Speaker 4: I don't think it was.
Speaker 3: Throw Oh the announcers got were like, oh, let's talk.
Speaker 3: It was like when my my parents don't talk about
Speaker 3: our dog that we gave away. It's like like, let's
Speaker 3: just not mention this thing anymore. It's like we we
Speaker 3: alls knew that we had a flag, right, we all
Speaker 3: saw it, and then there's no mention.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was really.
Speaker 1: There was the interception at the end that they didn't
Speaker 1: review that the ball clearly to me hit the ground
Speaker 1: and so it would have been like a non catch.
Speaker 1: They called it a catch.
Speaker 2: So I'm sorry, why don't they go back and watch that.
Speaker 1: They kind of did and then they said, oh, it's confirmed.
Speaker 3: And no, but there was one where they did review
Speaker 3: the footage and I guess I was trying to understand it.
Speaker 3: So they the refs called the play and then there
Speaker 3: wasn't enough evidence to overturn the call. But had the
Speaker 3: one ref who had been on the other side of
Speaker 3: the line seen it, he would have said it was
Speaker 3: uh for the like it was like, because one ref
Speaker 3: called it, they couldn't overturn it. But if the other
Speaker 3: ref would have just called it, they would have not
Speaker 3: been able to overturn that y on the other way.
Speaker 1: So that, yeah, that that exact thing happened, and that
Speaker 1: happens in games all the time. But it just felt like, man,
Speaker 1: it was happen.
Speaker 3: Why isn't there a camera that can see centered right
Speaker 3: over the line and see why aren't there cameras in every.
Speaker 1: Every single yard. I mean, I guess one day there
Speaker 1: will be, but for now, how could there not be?
Speaker 3: Now about the little one that's always flying through the air,
Speaker 3: Why isn't that just like you always tracing the ball?
Speaker 1: Why isn't it connected to get the shots of Taylor
Speaker 1: Swift in the box?
Speaker 3: But literally, why don't they have a motion thing on
Speaker 3: a camera that one of the cameras that goes on
Speaker 3: the field and just goes, what are your all around
Speaker 3: on those little wires? Why isn't that motion censored to
Speaker 3: the ball and so it's always hovering.
Speaker 2: Above the ball.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's as easy as also.
Speaker 3: Not help because sometimes I watch the replays literally six times,
Speaker 3: and I do not know where the ball is, and
Speaker 3: I cannot tell where it is. There's too many people
Speaker 3: on top of it, and you just don't know.
Speaker 2: How do you know?
Speaker 1: During the Super Bowl they do have almost that many cameras,
Speaker 1: so many cameras in fact, that you can do a
Speaker 1: full three sixty of any play without it seeming like
Speaker 1: there was a break. You'll see that in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: But they can only afford that for like the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: Well, I'm helping for the guy that was crying on
Speaker 3: the bench. I like that, Yeah, I like I like
Speaker 3: seeing tears, you know. I'm happy to see them go
Speaker 3: a third time and possibly get three in a row.
Speaker 1: And it's fun.
Speaker 3: I'm sad for my friend Sean. Thank you to the
Speaker 3: bestie who wrote me to check in on my friend Sean,
Speaker 3: whose happiness and livelihood depend on the bills progressing. He's
Speaker 3: all rights, Sean. Little did I know you were also
Speaker 3: as a dependent on this bill's win. But yeah, I
Speaker 3: think it's I'm going to the super Bowl. It's gonna
Speaker 3: be fun, you know. Obviously, I'm fucking excited that I
Speaker 3: get to go to a thing and Taylor is going
Speaker 3: to be in the stadium, and it's going to be
Speaker 3: really fun. Like the energy is just exciting and I'm
Speaker 3: happy about it. And they all looked happy, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And I'm happy for.
Speaker 3: Randy Mahomes, who you know, we're friends on Instagram. Uh So,
Speaker 3: I'm happy for Patrick Mahomes mom. I think she's a sweetheart,
Speaker 3: like a lot shout out.
Speaker 1: I'm happy for Saquon I think. I mean, there's no
Speaker 1: like the fan base of the Eagles is one of
Speaker 1: the most notoriously hated fan bases in all of sports,
Speaker 1: and the Chiefs are hated because they just win all
Speaker 1: the time. So like it's like being the It's like
Speaker 1: being the Patriots in the early two thousand.
Speaker 2: Not fair.
Speaker 3: It's like, just because someone wins all the time, why
Speaker 3: do we got to take away things from people who
Speaker 3: were winning, Like because we.
Speaker 1: Want we want someone else to have a shot at it.
Speaker 2: But when they weren't winning, we loved them. It's like
Speaker 2: nothing chased.
Speaker 1: When they first came back and they were and they
Speaker 1: were like facing off against Tom Brady and dethroning that dynasty,
Speaker 1: were all rooting for the chief.
Speaker 2: He loved it. But nothing's changed since then. They're the
Speaker 2: same people.
Speaker 1: What's interesting about the Super Bowl coming up is that
Speaker 1: Andy Reid is the coach of the Chiefs. Now he
Speaker 1: was the long term. He was the long term coach
Speaker 1: of the Eagles too. He brought the Eagles to the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl multiple times. And we've got the Kelsey brothers
Speaker 1: brothers connection. I'm sure Jason Kelsey's pissed off.
Speaker 4: I just think it's so it's so retired. It's so
Speaker 4: crazy that Tom Brady did something that like no one
Speaker 4: else has ever done in the like the entire run
Speaker 4: of football, and then Pat Mahomes is like close, like
Speaker 4: right after he retired, is about to do.
Speaker 2: Something that Tom never did.
Speaker 4: I mean like there's like a real chance that like
Speaker 4: Pat Mahomes is going to have thrown him as like
Speaker 4: the greatest of all.
Speaker 1: Time right after he gets crowned the greatest of all time.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Like and also while that happens, guess who is going
Speaker 1: to have to announce it because it's gonna be on Fox,
Speaker 1: the Super Bowls on Fox. Tom Brady's gonna be the
Speaker 1: announcer saying, Wow, I guess I'm not the best anymore.
Speaker 4: Is this really?
Speaker 3: Like is this what people think that, like you guys
Speaker 3: as football fans are like, this is seriously, if he
Speaker 3: wins this one, he's going to dethrone Brady.
Speaker 1: I mean he'd have to win seven rings. That would
Speaker 1: be the and how many does you have?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: Four?
Speaker 2: It'll be four, three, but he has three right now,
Speaker 2: but then before before.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and he's still like so young, like all things.
Speaker 1: Considered, Yeah, he has plenty of time.
Speaker 4: It'll be. It's the equivalent was like if Michael Jordan
Speaker 4: retired and then the next year Lebron showed up right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's always going to be someone that's next.
Speaker 1: But the thing is people people say that Tom Brady,
Speaker 1: people say that Patrick Mahomes is young. But if you're
Speaker 1: called Tom Brady's career, he had success early with the
Speaker 1: two thous his first year being the starter, and then
Speaker 1: the next couple of years they won this like three times,
Speaker 1: and then there was a long like almost ten year
Speaker 1: gap where he didn't win another ring, and then he
Speaker 1: finally came back and won a couple and then again
Speaker 1: with the Bes.
Speaker 3: What you gotta do, that's the business. You gotta be
Speaker 3: on top, and then you gotta go away. Then you
Speaker 3: got to reinvent yourself and come back, and then you
Speaker 3: got to be a legend. And then like it's this,
Speaker 3: This just shows me that, Like yeah, I was like, oh,
Speaker 3: we all just are not excited about chiefs because we're
Speaker 3: like tired of seeing them win. It's like, it's that's
Speaker 3: what makes me nervous about winning so much recently in
Speaker 3: my life, is like I'm gonna have to go away
Speaker 3: and then people are gonna root against me. It's inevitable,
Speaker 3: there's no way to avoid it. It is the human
Speaker 3: condition that we don't like to see things on top for.
Speaker 1: Too for too long. Yeah, that's why I gotta you
Speaker 1: gotta be laying the cut. You gotta go and stay
Speaker 1: in and see go on top for a while. I mean,
Speaker 1: like with the like with the Golden Globes for example.
Speaker 1: But as we've seen with Tina and Amy, you have
Speaker 1: several years. I think of.
Speaker 3: Even my friend Kirsten this week was like, oh, Nikki,
Speaker 3: like I went to go visit Krison for a birthday.
Speaker 3: I just flew to Kansas City for one day and
Speaker 3: or like for five hours to visit, uh, surprise her.
Speaker 2: For a birthday.
Speaker 3: And we were talking to her mom about her mom
Speaker 3: was there at lunch and about her mom listens to
Speaker 3: the podcast and she's like people.
Speaker 2: Always ask me, was Nikki funny growing up? And I
Speaker 2: just tell them no.
Speaker 3: She was.
Speaker 2: She was so serious.
Speaker 3: She didn't impression of me and my arms are just
Speaker 3: crossed and I'm just like looking pissed off. She was like,
Speaker 3: this was Nikki all like as a child, just looking
Speaker 3: looking suspicious around, bored, suspicious and like glaring.
Speaker 2: And I was collecting data, is what I was doing.
Speaker 2: But that is true.
Speaker 3: And then she said that what was my point going
Speaker 3: to be about staying on top.
Speaker 1: Nope, purepaced these years, you got to lay in the cut.
Speaker 2: Kirsten said, no, God damn that mission of being on
Speaker 2: top and.
Speaker 1: Your mom was saying, you're serious when you're young.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I forget it now. I forgot what my whole
Speaker 3: fucking point was gonna be. But that yeah, I uh,
Speaker 3: but yeah, all I got was that she stood up
Speaker 3: to do impression on me, and I was like, no,
Speaker 3: I don't want to see this, and then she told
Speaker 3: me I wasn't funny, and I was just like, I
Speaker 3: don't want to hear any of this. But then I
Speaker 3: was just like and then Kirsten knows that I get
Speaker 3: like really embarrassed and people do it impression on me,
Speaker 3: and she also knows that, like I don't want to
Speaker 3: hear that I wasn't funny, growing it doesn't matter what
Speaker 3: I am now, Like you don't want to hear like that.
Speaker 3: None of us saw this coming. No offense, mama flow,
Speaker 3: but it's you know, no one wants to hear that.
Speaker 3: But but I'm like used to it now because I'm realizing,
Speaker 3: like I just wasn't I was studying people. I wasn't
Speaker 3: like acting I was the clown growing up. I was
Speaker 3: more like the observer.
Speaker 1: The clown ever wins in the end. The class clown,
Speaker 1: whoever gets voted class clown or high school is not
Speaker 1: going to be a comedian. Really, Yes, I came.
Speaker 4: In second place in the high school and I was
Speaker 4: so pissed at the time. And now he's just like
Speaker 4: he works at six Flags Great Adventure. I won. I'm
Speaker 4: the class.
Speaker 1: Class That's right, I'm the same way. I didn't win
Speaker 1: class clown either. There was someone else who was class
Speaker 1: clown and said I got most changed since middle school,
Speaker 1: and someone else won class clown because he would fart
Speaker 1: in his hand and put in people's faces. And I'm like, well, class.
Speaker 4: Clown in eighth grade, but then in high school I
Speaker 4: got most changed.
Speaker 1: Whoa wow, who changed?
Speaker 3: I don't even remember that superlative most changed since middle school.
Speaker 4: It usually went to somebody who like lost a drastic
Speaker 4: amount of weight.
Speaker 1: Oh God, I definitely that happened to me too. I
Speaker 1: had a huge growth I was in middle school. As
Speaker 1: to quote John Mulaney's joke, I looked like a little
Speaker 1: Asian boy and I would hold a trumpet and I
Speaker 1: had a mushroom cut in little round glasses. And then
Speaker 1: when I was in high school, I legitimately looked like
Speaker 1: I had a goatee in sideburns and I looked like
Speaker 1: I was in olymp biscuit or something. Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we got to see these pictures. I don't think
Speaker 3: I've ever seen you as a young boy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was a young little boy.
Speaker 2: Did you dress differently?
Speaker 1: I there's just this picture of me in my dad's
Speaker 1: house where it was at a It was during a concert,
Speaker 1: like the Winter Concert. So I'm standing there with a
Speaker 1: white buttoned down shirt. I'm pretty tubby. I've got these
Speaker 1: a mushroom cut and round glasses, and I'm holding a
Speaker 1: trumpet case. And I do look like I just came
Speaker 1: from a different country, and I'm trying to figure out
Speaker 1: how America works.
Speaker 2: Could you probably trumpet?
Speaker 4: Now?
Speaker 2: If I gave you one, would you be able to
Speaker 2: make a sound?
Speaker 1: Trumpet is tough because you have to have like the aperture.
Speaker 1: It needs to be work. You have to your lips
Speaker 1: need to be strong in order to be able like
Speaker 1: even blow into it.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like yeah exactly.
Speaker 1: But I could probably blow into it and play like
Speaker 1: a scale.
Speaker 3: Oh wow, all right, I'm impressed. Did you play an instrument, Sean,
Speaker 3: and then we'll go I.
Speaker 4: Played bass, but yeah, I played like yeah, I played
Speaker 4: bass guitar and like the worst bands New Jersey's that

Speaker 4: into it.
