Speaker 3: to eat a eero in my car and that was

11
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 3: so far the big event of the week. But more

12
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:14,640

Speaker 2: Hello, Welcome to.

17
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 3: I said, no gifts.

18
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 2: Thank you so much for having me. I'm glad that

19
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 2: we can finally make this happen. Just you know what's

20
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: going on, what's going on, Well, there is a global

21
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: pandemic happening, certainly, and what's going on, what's going on

22
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,639
Speaker 2: is actually a nice sidestep of how are you? Because

23
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 2: how are you is the worst question you could ask

24
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 2: or be asked these days. But what's going on? What's

25
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 2: going on?

26
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: Well?

27
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 2: I cleaned this room, which is great. It I really,

28
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed yesterday's weather, which was cloudy all day.

29
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 2: I tried not to think about why it was cloudy

30
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 2: all day because in LA it's usually something unnatural that's

31
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 2: made it that way. And yeah, and uh, I went

32
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 2: and walked down. I got a salad and I'm drinking

33
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 2: this red Bull because I find that I'm on Vivance,

34
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 2: which is a prescription similar to Adderall okay, and it's

35
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 2: it's limited, it's it's extended release, but if you drink caffeine,

36
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 2: you get it all released in one go. And I said,

37
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 2: for for Bridger, not only am I going to be focused,

38
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 2: but I'm going to be a little methed out for

39
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 2: the podcast because I'm going to drink this red Bull.

40
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 2: And so that's sort of what's going on with me

41
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 2: today in this moment.

42
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 3: Are you a do you consume a decent amount of caffeine?

43
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 2: I do? I do. I Unfortunately in quarantine, I've sort

44
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 2: of gotten addicted to it in a way that like

45
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 2: I used to be able to forget about caffeine in

46
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 2: a big way. I used to be able to go.

47
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 2: It used to be a treat, you know, like sort

48
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 2: of something actually something I would only do before podcasts

49
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 2: or if I had to wake up early. But now

50
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 2: our lot, my life is so much about routine that

51
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 2: i've it's it's been added to the routine and it's

52
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: never going away. And now I think I'm drinking too

53
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 2: much of it.

54
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 3: And mostly to red bowl er. Is it coffee or

55
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 3: what's going on?

56
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 2: I'll walk to get I can't. I am This is

57
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 2: the other thing that's laid bare, been laid bare in

58
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 2: this pandemic, is that I am not an especially domestic person.

59
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 2: I can't. I tried to make my own cold brew.

60
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 2: Oh I do that. It's a simple it's a simple process.

61
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 2: Did you use I just got some grounds, left it out,

62
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 2: you know, and then across the counter and then try

63
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 2: to filter it into a different container. But the thing

64
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 2: is is I used the ground. I used regular coffee grounds.

65
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 2: You've got to have a course ground. You gotta have

66
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 2: a course ground. And it was and it said that

67
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 2: in the instructions, And yet I said to myself, what

68
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 2: is that? And so I just used what regular coffee grounds.

69
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 2: I can't make it. I don't like hot coffee. It's

70
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 2: just a mess. I haven't gone grocery shopping in months.

71
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: I'm ordering exclusively takeout and meal delivery services, and so

72
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 2: red bull is not something that I especially enjoy, but

73
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 2: it's just an easy way to get the caffeine that

74
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 2: I want. And I use a lot of pre workout

75
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 2: because I am working out are you working out quarantine

76
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 2: as well? I'm working out at home. I'm working out

77
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: at outdoor gyms. I drive to see me Valley sometimes

78
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: to work, to go to an outdoor gym.

79
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 3: There doing anything outdoors and Seemi Vallet seems.

80
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 2: It is rough and I don't do it often because

81
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 2: I mean, A, it's Semi Valley, and B I mean

82
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 2: I don't know. For your listeners, this is a this

83
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: is an especially regional reference Semi Valley, but don't bother

84
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 2: looking it up. There's nothing there. It is home to

85
00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 2: where most of our police force uh in LA lives. Valley. Yeah,

86
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 2: and I will say.

87
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 3: When you mentioned this, I was picturing just essentially a

88
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,559
Speaker 3: prison workyard.

89
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 2: For the Yeah, and that is that is very much

90
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,159
Speaker 2: the vibe. It's very much the vibe. I'm the only

91
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 2: person who's wearing a mask. And yeah, so that's what

92
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 2: That's another reason I don't go quite so often because

93
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 2: I have to, really, I have to go if I

94
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: want to go when it's safe, I have to go

95
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 2: at a roughly five point thirty in the morning, and

96
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 2: it's about a forty minute drive and how long for

97
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 2: about an hour forty five minutes to an hour to

98
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 2: drive home after and then you drive home after. But

99
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 2: I've really gotten used to the MPR hosts on the

100
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 2: on doing that. You know what, I really like Corva Coleman,

101
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 2: and I really like there's a lot of names that

102
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: I really like in the Marketplace Morning Report. I love

103
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: David Broncaccio, Sabri Bena. Sure, yeah, it's a it's an

104
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 2: incredible lineup of names that they have on MPR these days.

105
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 2: But yeah, I also built. I built a squat rack

106
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: out of two by fours and use that sometimes in

107
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 2: my backyards.

108
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,400
Speaker 3: What how did you build it? Did you find a

109
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 3: tutorial online.

110
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 2: A YouTube, a YouTube? It's it was all the rage

111
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 2: early in Quarantine was to build a squat rack in

112
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 2: your backyard. And I followed suit, and my dad would

113
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 2: have been very proud that I went to Home Depot

114
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 2: and I didn't cry, and I really made it out.

115
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 2: Although they did let me buy two drills, and I

116
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: knew that they do, they did it deliberately because what

117
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 2: I did was bought them by mistake. I bought them

118
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 2: by mistake. I bought one drill, and then I bought

119
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 2: what I thought was a drill starter pack, which is

120
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 2: sort of how it was. I advertised to myselfond drill

121
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 2: is a drill starter Yeah, that's well, you know, this

122
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 2: is what ended up happening is I just thought it

123
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 2: was like extra bits and bobs for the drill. And

124
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 2: my greatest fear is to go into a hardware store

125
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 2: and embarrass myself. And so I was like, you know,

126
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 2: so proud. I checked out. I got out of there

127
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 2: and I was like, nobody, I didn't have to ask

128
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 2: for help. Nobody you know, you know, said anything to me.

129
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 2: You know, I didn't embarrass myself. Get home, realized I

130
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 2: had bought a drill and then an identical drill, but

131
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 2: the but with a starter pack, And that's basically what happened.

132
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 2: And they knew and they saw me check out. They

133
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 2: saw me check out, and they said, this man is

134
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 2: buying a drill and then an identical drill with just

135
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 2: additional bits and bobs included with it. And by them

136
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 2: letting me purchase those drills, both of those drills, that

137
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 2: is them calling me a faggot. That is a hate crime.

138
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 3: Actually, I'm in their defense. Maybe they just thought you

139
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 3: were a drill enthusiast. Possibly, but does that exist. I

140
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 3: just they must have seen me, and they must have

141
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 3: seen the fear in my eyes. And I think that

142
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 3: it was either done out of cruelty or out of pity,

143
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 3: because I think that they knew that to say anything

144
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 3: to me at that point would have sent me over

145
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 3: the edge. I would have been just crawled into my

146
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 3: Do you still have both drills?

147
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 2: I have both drills that I actually have of I

148
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 2: didn't return it because I had opened it. And that's

149
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 2: how I realized that drills. Listen, Sometimes you've got one

150
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 2: drill charging and you're using the other trail. And then

151
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 2: at one point I had to even use my neighbors.

152
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 2: I had to borrow a third drill. These drills outside

153
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 2: of building the square, nothing nothing, They're sitting in my

154
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 2: shed Now, I don't think I'll ever use any of

155
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 2: the drills again, maybe to hang something, but I'm now

156
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 2: using a lot of you know, the adhesive hooks to

157
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 2: hang everything. Well you shouldn't, because every couple of weeks

158
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: I'll wake up to a big, a crashing sound and

159
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 2: it will be something falling off the wall, which is

160
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 2: mostly my fault because I'm using I'm using the lighter

161
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 2: ones for heavier paintings, but that's that's another story entirely. No,

162
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 2: I get the temptation with an adhesive hook because I

163
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 2: don't own a drill and I'm not handy, but I

164
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 2: so what I essentially do is I just don't hang anything,

165
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 2: which is also not good. But maybe I need to

166
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 2: take take a step and just buy a drill or something.

167
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 2: This is the first time I've ever lived in where

168
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 2: I've hung anything on the walls, and I gotta say

169
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 2: it doesn't make me feel any different about the space

170
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 2: that I'm not doing. It makes me feel nothing. I

171
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 2: don't think you're missing out on anything. I think that's

172
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 2: what you need it to do. I think if the

173
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 2: things were not hanging and you would feel it, I

174
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 2: think it's kind of numbing. You in a way that

175
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 2: you're just not aware of it. I have plenty of

176
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 2: things that I haven't hung yet, though, and I'm fine

177
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 2: with that. How long it'll be a year in October.

178
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 3: Okay, but that's a decent amount of time.

179
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. And you know that's nothing, though, because I lived

180
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 2: in an apartment in Chicago. I lived in a studio

181
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 2: apartment in Chicago for almost two years and when I

182
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: moved out, there were still boxes that hadn't been unpacked.

183
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 2: Oh good for you. Yeah, I never I never bought.

184
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 2: I bought a kitchen table, but no chairs, so would

185
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 2: at the table to eat sort of sat on a

186
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: futon that the same Walmart futon that I bought my

187
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 2: freshman year of college. I lived on until I was

188
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four years old, I want to say, and

189
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 2: so that's just sort of that's that's who I am.

190
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 2: Like when I say I'm not domestic, it goes beyond

191
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 2: not being able to make cooking coffee. It really is

192
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 2: just literally a sort of lifestyle. Yeah, this the pandemic

193
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 2: has made. This is the most decorated any home I've

194
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 2: ever lived in has looked. Because of the pandemic and

195
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 2: because I went on a real spree of just ordering

196
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 2: Wayfair cabinets, you know, sort of, and I'm now complicit

197
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 2: in the trafficking that goes on at Wayfair.

198
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 3: Of course you've got ten children that you're a partner house,

199
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 3: and this sort of thing exactly. Wait, speaking of like

200
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 3: shipping mysteries, have you read about these like mysterious seeds

201
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 3: that are coming from China? What I guess people are

202
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 3: just in the male receiving mysterious like packet some seeds that.

203
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 2: They don't like that at all. I don't like that

204
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 2: at all. That's such a that is such the beginning

205
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 2: of a of a twilight zone sort of scenario. I

206
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 2: don't enjoy it. What's gonna happen to the seeds? What

207
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 2: are the people doing throwing them out, planting them them

208
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 2: to what end? To what end?

209
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 3: If I didn't order a packet of seeds and I

210
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 3: just suddenly had one, the last thing I would do

211
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 3: is want it growing in my yard. Who knows what

212
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 3: I mean? Maybe if I I think if there was

213
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 3: like a traveling salesman who gave me a mysterious seed

214
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 3: or being of course I'm putting it in the ground. Yes,

215
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 3: we know what happens in that but just to get

216
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 3: it in the mail. What a weird, eerie thing.

217
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 2: What is an incredible new sort of wave of warfare

218
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 2: we're living through? Of course, is just this. Send those

219
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 2: American seeds. They'll plant them. They're a planting bench. I

220
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 2: don't like that. I hadn't heard of that, and now

221
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 2: that's going to keep me up at night. Hopefully I'm

222
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 2: also but I'm also simultaneously I haven't received any seeds.

223
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 3: Of course, I feel left out. Why am I not

224
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 3: on this list for seeds? Well, I've just revealed that

225
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 3: I wouldn't plant them, but maybe if I did get them.

226
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 3: If you're out there, if you're the seed giver and

227
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 3: you're listening to this podcast, get in touch with my

228
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 3: mailing address, Yeah, send me some seeds. I'd at least

229
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 3: like to have that little fear that you know I'm

230
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 3: here and that you think I might plant some seeds.

231
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 2: A big following, big following for this podcast. I checked

232
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 2: thirteen thousand reviews.

233
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:36,319
Speaker 3: Thirty five million reviews from Europe to Asia to Australia.

234
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 2: People around the glidos go on other people's podcasts unless

235
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 2: there is at least ten thousand reviews. Okay, five stars, Well, yeah,

236
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 2: seeds all this sort of thing. It's well, actually, I'm

237
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 2: you know, I'm not great at segues, but I'm seeing

238
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 2: a beautiful segue here, which is receiving things in the mail,

239
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 2: which is something that a few weeks ago, I did

240
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,520
Speaker 2: receive a package.

241
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 3: In the mail address. Yeah, I was when I was

242
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 3: looking at my old apartment. We've moved in the lift.

243
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 3: Oh you just moved, yes, And you know, we had

244
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 3: talked about you being on this podcast and et cetera,

245
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 3: et cetera, and I was told that I would be

246
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 3: getting something in the mail, and I thought, I, who

247
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 3: knows what this could even mean. I'm happy to get

248
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 3: things in the mail. It's always a fun surprise. But Joel,

249
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 3: I knew, you knew this podcast was called I said

250
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 3: no gifts, and yeah, so I got this box in

251
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 3: the mail and then I had to move, which is

252
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 3: just hell. And you know, there are certain valuable things

253
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 3: when you're moving that you really want to keep track of,

254
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 3: things that you don't do not want to lose. This

255
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 3: isn't headed in the direction that you think it is.

256
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 3: There were essentially two things that I said, if if

257
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 3: we lose these in the move. I'm just gonna have

258
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 3: to throw myself off because we've all had one situation

259
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 3: with this recording. If I lose the box that Joel

260
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 3: has sent, then I will have to leave comedy. But yeah,

261
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 3: you know there's a box of like family photos. I

262
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 3: had to keep my eye on those, and I also

263
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 3: kept my eye on this box because okay, great, I

264
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 3: managed to get both of these into my house and

265
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 3: everything is fine. But Joel all that aside. Again, the

266
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 3: podcast is called I said no gifts.

267
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 2: I know, but I knew, actually I knew you were moving.

268
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: I knew you were moving, and I knew that you

269
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 2: would be opening it in your new home. And it's

270
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 2: just it's in me my you know, my mom is

271
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 2: from the South, A lot of family from the South.

272
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 2: I couldn't I couldn't resist getting you a housewarming gift,

273
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 2: a sort of a token, something, something to protect the

274
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 2: house really as you know, as a as a as

275
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 2: an emblem, sort of a protection for your new house

276
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 2: and sort of set the tone. And because you know,

277
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 2: I didn't realize this until you said it. But you're

278
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,920
Speaker 2: not a decorator. You're not hanging things on the wall.

279
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 2: This isn't. This is something that I think you can

280
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 2: sort of display over a mantle or a fireplace. And

281
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 2: again I don't. I don't see it as a gift.

282
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 2: I think that's that's a really the way you're framing

283
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 2: it as a gift is is wrong. I actually it's

284
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 2: a warning. I will say I was sort of panicked

285
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 2: about the gift. I would give you all pretense aside

286
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 2: that I knew I was going to get you a

287
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 2: gift for the pod, and I was forced to go

288
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 2: to Amazon, which I've been pretty good about divesting from.

289
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 2: But Amazon was the only company I knew could get

290
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 2: you this gift fast and then the cancelationship. If you

291
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 2: had known yourn in a solid month, I could have

292
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 2: gotten you something from an Etsy store in you know, Taiwan,

293
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 2: something really really really special. But Amazon it was and

294
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 2: we didn't know. But I you know, I do love

295
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 2: the way that the gifts from Amazon are wrapped. So

296
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 2: that's something.

297
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 3: Another dollar in Jeff Bezos pocket. And here we are, well,

298
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 3: I mean all four podcast we're here. I mean it's

299
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 3: actually now, I mean it is in a bag that says.

300
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 2: No, wait cool, I didn't know that that's what it

301
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 2: came in. Well, all things aside, I put it in

302
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 2: this bad oh okay, okay, okay.

303
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 3: You know when when we switched to pandemic recording, you know,

304
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 3: a certain responsibility now follows on me as a host,

305
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 3: which is frequently you've got to put You've got to

306
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 3: wrap these gifts on something. Yah, most of the time. Absolutely,

307
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 3: so you know I had Well.

308
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 2: I think I think you might be surprised to find

Speaker 2: like that.

334
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 3: Our soul was placing these stickers of oh my god.

335
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,879
Speaker 2: Meanwhile, I feel I've just sort of created a Rube

336
00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 2: started a Rube Goldberg machine of terror just to get

337
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 2: you this gift. Wait, which is and again, I want

338
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:34,399
Speaker 2: you to display this prominently in your home. I wanted

339
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 2: to displayed prominently in the home above the mantle to

340
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:39,360
Speaker 2: watch over you.

341
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 3: Then this will follow me into the workplace and yeah,

342
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 3: I'll just hatred will surround me. Uh huh, you've sent

343
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 3: me which it's a babble ahead of Michael Scott from

344
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 3: the office.

345
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, because I thought I was really thinking about you,

346
00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 4: and I was thinking about sort of what your vibe

347
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 4: and what sort of your desk escape would be at

348
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 4: whatever writing job you found yourself at next And I

349
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 4: thought this would be a really good addition to the

350
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 4: desk and I.

351
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,159
Speaker 2: Horrifying, Can I see it? Actually? Because I didn't, I

352
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 2: didn't get a good look at it. I mean, I

353
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 2: wanted to get you appt in more things I want.

354
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 2: I really wanted to get you Jim, not Michael. I

355
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 2: thought Jim was sort of a funnier option for me

356
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 2: than Michael. And I also wanted to get you a

357
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 2: pop head. But this is this is delightful. This is

358
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 2: this is actually delightful.

359
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 3: You know, you either get this on Amazon or you

360
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 3: head to the NBC store. Those are the two places

361
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 3: on Earth where you can get this one. Possibly a Spencer's. Yeah,

362
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,000
Speaker 3: possibly Spencers Spencer's. I mean it does say it's fourteen plus.

363
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 3: I'd like that there's an age range on the A thirteen.

364
00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 2: Year old would not enjoy this. The satires would go

365
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 2: well over their head. Okay, they wouldn't. They would say,

366
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 2: a thirteen year old would say that that guy's not

367
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:13,119
Speaker 2: a very good boss at all. Who's what's going on?

368
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 3: First? Running the paper company? Yeah, full disclosure. Look at

369
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 3: this before we get into this. Apparently there are only

370
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 3: on the back of the box. There's a Michael or

371
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 3: there's a Dwight. Apparently those are the two options. Wow,

372
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,919
Speaker 3: there's not a gym. See that's what I was disappointed in.

373
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 3: I almost got. I almost spent and this is ghost

374
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 3: to bring up how much you'd spend on a gift.

375
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 3: But here's the thing.

376
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: I really wanted to get you one of those pop

377
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 2: figurines right like the right the Funko Pop, the Funko

378
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 2: pops I wanted to get There was a gym Funko

379
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 2: Pop that was like eighty five dollars, and I would

380
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:52,639
Speaker 2: have been furious. I would have been so mad that

381
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:59,479
Speaker 2: you shrewth I really considered it, and I was like

382
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 2: the mountain Like, I was like, is there a way

383
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 2: on Amazon gifts to sort of indicate how much you spent?

384
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 2: Like can you include the receipt? I was like, is

385
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 2: there a way to include the receipt because the fact

386
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 2: the eighty dollars of it actually would have been a

387
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 2: big part of the joke, a big part of the

388
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 2: comedy for me, and the fact that I couldn't include

389
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 2: it was and.

390
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 3: Also it should that should be an option on the

391
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 3: gift receipts. You should be able to choose the font

392
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 3: and color of the price. I think that you should

393
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 3: really be able to indicate and present to the recipient

394
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 3: how much money you've spent on them. I think let's

395
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,160
Speaker 3: get away from hiding the amount. Let's just make people

396
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 3: feel guilt as soon as they open the package exactly,

397
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 3: just show it off eighty five dollars for what is happening.

398
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 3: I do not understand the world of funco pop. They

399
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:51,760
Speaker 3: I don't yell. The economy of funko pop is truly

400
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 3: wild to me. I don't, I guess I don't. I

401
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 3: don't really get collectible culture. I do there at all.

402
00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 2: I don't fling shoot, I don't understand. I own, you

403
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 2: know what I will say. I own like hundreds of

404
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 2: comic books that I keep for I used to think

405
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,160
Speaker 2: and they a lot. I used to like keep them

406
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 2: in plastic covers because I thought, maybe I grew up

407
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,439
Speaker 2: I was a beanie baby generation person, and I was

408
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 2: lied to by my parents who said that someday like basically,

409
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 2: my parents treated my beanie babies as though they were

410
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 2: a college fund for so many years because they were convinced.

411
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 2: We were told, we were told that those beanie babies

412
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 2: would be worth something they and so I did. I

413
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,119
Speaker 2: had sort of the same notion with comic books, but

414
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 2: I have sense sort of just lugged them around with

415
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 2: me because of aesthetic purposes, Like they're just like a

416
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 2: fun just like truly the most base bass superhero comic books.

417
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 2: I wish I could tell you I was somebody who

418
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 2: was like into indie you know, presses and things like that,

419
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,920
Speaker 2: and you know the stuff that is elevated and now

420
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 2: turned into prestige television. But no, it's it's all bass.

421
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,200
Speaker 2: It's all Marvel x men, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

422
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 2: And that's sort of why I got you the Michael

423
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 2: Scott gift too, because there's a big I have a

424
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 2: big sort of chip on my shoulder about feeling like

425
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 2: I my taste is so bad.

426
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 3: So I feel like a bad taste. I feel like

427
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 3: I think I don't know you that well, but I've

428
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 3: always kind of looked at you as somebody of decent taste.

429
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 2: Wow, I really appreciate that, because comedically, I would say

430
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 2: I worry sometimes like that some of the things that

431
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:40,080
Speaker 2: I traffic in are first thought or maybe basic like

432
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 2: because the thing is is I like the Office and

433
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 2: I'm a shit and it's like it's one of those

434
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 2: things where I'm like, I'm ashamed that this is this

435
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 2: is had a hand in shaping me and my comedic

436
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 2: sort of sensibilities. Whereas I look to you as someone

437
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 2: who is singular and sort of like respected and know

438
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,679
Speaker 2: and like in your own lane, I would say that

439
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 2: I occupy a lane full of little trash goblins who

440
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 2: are tweeting about the same things that I'm tweeting about.

441
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 2: But I, you know, I just I worry that, like

442
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 2: some of my interests are a little bit too of

443
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 2: the world in a way that like am I bringing

444
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,479
Speaker 2: an interesting pop Like I remember listening to the Langan

445
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 2: Kingsley episode of this podcasting a Queen a Queen among

446
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 2: men one.

447
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 3: Of the funniest look Have I ever watched The Office? No,

448
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 3: I mean it's a whole thing where I watched the

449
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 3: British version and then I was kind of a snob,

450
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 3: and then I watched the pilot of the American version.

451
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 3: I thought it was bed and then when people started

452
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 3: saying it was getting good, that's when they really started

453
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 3: leaning heavily on the Gym and Pam stuff, and I

454
00:24:55,920 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 3: thought that was so distasteful and annoying, and so I've

455
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 3: I never watch it, but a lot of people, a

456
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 3: lot of people I respect, love the office.

457
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 2: Okay, well myself included, because you know, I've cried. I cried.

458
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 2: I cried when Jim and Pam got married. And I'm

459
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 2: ashamed to say it. It is, I guess, and actually

460
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 2: I guess like part of it is too, is like

461
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 2: I'm a shamed that I'm ashamed. You know. I wish

462
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,439
Speaker 2: I could just like what I like, enjoy without without

463
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 2: having these little voices in my head that's saying I

464
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 2: remember it.

465
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's impossible to just purely enjoy anything.

466
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,679
Speaker 3: I think the internet makes you just question everything that

467
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,360
Speaker 3: you enjoy. It really samps. A lot of the currency

468
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 3: is takes.

469
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 2: The currency is you have to have a take on

470
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 2: something horrible and I and it is it is awful

471
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 2: because sometimes I just want to sit back and enjoy it.

472
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,400
Speaker 2: Oh you imagine, No, I can't. I honestly, I can't

473
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 2: remember the last time I truly just enjoyed something without

474
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 2: having this like running commentary in my head of Like okay,

475
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 2: but like what's your takeaway, Like what's going to be

476
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 2: your angle on the Mulan movie? Okay, Like you need

477
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 2: to like, okay, people are going to be talking about

478
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,360
Speaker 2: Mulan now, and so you need to get in there

479
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 2: with a with a good Mulan take. And it's got

480
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 2: to be one that's not that's like a little out

481
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 2: of left field, and it's got to be within a brand.

482
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 2: You know, all of these things. It's a it's it's hell.

483
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 2: It's hell.

484
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 3: It's absolutely torture. I mean, the last time I just

485
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 3: purely enjoyed something was probably high school.

486
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 2: And what was it, I don't know.

487
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 3: It was probably Strangers with Candy.

488
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's a good one. But even that is

489
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 2: like cool. See you you were enjoying cool things first stuff.

490
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 2: I mean, God, bless my two older brothers. They have

491
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 2: not good taste. The bad taste.

492
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:42,679
Speaker 3: My family was a home improvement family. I don't know

493
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 3: how the.

494
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 2: Same for me? Oh you really? Yeah? And you know,

495
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 2: I'm really good friends with her son in real life.

496
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 2: Wait with whose son? Pat Patricia? Yeah? Patty Patty. Yeah,

497
00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 2: her son is a gay internet comedian who's very funny. Actually,

498
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 2: Joe castle Baker is his name? Wait, Joe is is

499
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 2: Uh he would kill me right now, but he I

500
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 2: mean he's not. Assume he's not. No, no, no, no, he's not.

501
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 2: He wouldn't actually, but like, it's it's it's it's no,

502
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 2: it's knowledge. I find him. He's one of the funniest.

503
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 2: If you're if you're listening to this and you're not

504
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 2: familiar with Joe castle Baker, look up his Instagram or

505
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 2: his Twitter. He is one of the funniest people who's

506
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 2: putting out front facing videos right now.

507
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 3: The acting duets he does are some of the most

508
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 3: insane things amazing.

509
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 2: And now I think that is another reason I'm going

510
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 2: crazy right now, is because I have not I am

511
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: not someone who is good at character work or front

512
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:54,479
Speaker 2: facing video comedy. And it is been and that is

513
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:58,360
Speaker 2: their time. Like I regret so often that I made

514
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 2: fun of any YouTuber ever because their skill set, they

515
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 2: are rising to the to the top, oh very top

516
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 2: right now. They're the only ones who can do anything.

517
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:08,360
Speaker 3: Yep.

518
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 2: I my friend gifted me with a wig recently and

519
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 2: I said, oh no, you know, this is temptation. The

520
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 2: temptation is too great. I don't know, like and there

521
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 2: was The thing is is I run a blank? Like

522
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 2: if I were to even try to imagine what that

523
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 2: would look like for me, like what like pov uh?

524
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 2: You know? Nope, See I can't even riff. I can't

525
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 2: even riff. I can't even come up with something ridiculous.

526
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 2: Did you have a premise for a video? Was there

527
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 2: like a thought? Did your brainstorm at all? No? You know,

528
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 2: because everything I've done, I did you know, the closest

529
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 2: I've come to using TikTok is I used the editing

530
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 2: capabilities of TikTok to do. I was asked to do

531
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 2: a roast. I guess this medical school does a roast

532
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 2: of every person who graduates the medical school, and they

533
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 2: have comedians come and do them oka and I was

534
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 2: one of the comedian. Is asked to roast one very

535
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 2: specific guy. And I made a little a very like

536
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,320
Speaker 2: quick cut video of me roasting this guy using just

537
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 2: pictures from his Facebook. And and when you when I'm

538
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 2: given a very specific prompt, I can pull something together,

539
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 2: but I really need the prompt. And right now the

540
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 2: prompt just seems to be like make people forget that

541
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 2: the world is on fire. And I can't. It's too broad.

542
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 2: It's too broad.

543
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 3: Even writing a tweet is difficult, it really is. There's

544
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 3: so much awful thing. I mean, it's just it's too

545
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 3: much for me to handle.

546
00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 2: And then I find myself hating every every anything as

547
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 2: soon as it's liked by somebody. Too many times I'm

548
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 2: suddenly looking at it and I'm like, well, this is trash,

549
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 2: this is trash. Now I'm a fraud. I wrote a

550
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 2: tweet about Lacroix recently that blew up, and I said,

551
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 2: I've become a person who who's writing tweets about Lacroix.

552
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 3: Now what Look, you know, everybody, I guess had some

553
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 3: opinion on Lacroix. What was your take.

554
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 2: Well, my take was Lacroix is meant to be sipped

555
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 2: once and then abandoned, because that is if you've ever

556
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 2: cleaned up after a party where there's the Klroy's around,

557
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 2: you know that they're almost always mostly full.

558
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 3: Oh, I think partially because everybody is holding one and

559
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 3: then it gets set down at some point and then

560
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 3: they all look the same, yes, and so you don't

561
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 3: want to dive back into somebody else's Lacroix.

562
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 2: They have about a half an hour before they become

563
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 2: undrinkable too. Oh, I really have to get in there

564
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 2: and then drink them before it just all falls apart

565
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 2: from the lacroix.

566
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you give me a Lacroix. I'm not in

567
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,960
Speaker 3: a social situation. I'm drinking the whole thing. I'm yeah,

568
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 3: tell us, yeah, you know. I'm trying to stay hydrated

569
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 3: all times. So if I if I'm given a vessel

570
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 3: with a liquid in it, I will finish the liquid.

571
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 3: I don't care what it is. My heart has frequently

572
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 3: almost stopped due to them out of cold brew.

573
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 2: That I'll drink. But what are you gonna do? The

574
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 2: brew and lacroix.

575
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 3: I think those are two liquids that you know, everyone

576
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 3: has now done a take on, and we've got to

577
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 3: get a new liquid. We need a new beverage about

578
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 3: you know.

579
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 2: The new meme now is the generation Z's. The Z's,

580
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 2: they're all the zoomers. They're all they've now ascribed cold

581
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 2: brew iced coffee as a millennial affect. What are they there?

582
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 2: I don't know what they're drinking. They're probably off caffeine

583
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 2: because they know that it's bad for them. But they're

584
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 2: all like the new Zoomer meme is like, oh, this

585
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 2: is what a millennial looks like before they've had their

586
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 2: iced coffee, or what a millennial sounds like talking about

587
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 2: iced coffee or something like that. And I'm now suddenly

588
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 2: realizing that like they have grown sentient, Like they've become sentient.

589
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 2: The generation below us has finally become sentient enough to

590
00:31:55,680 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 2: like just or deride us. And it is, but it's

591
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 2: very scary.

592
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 3: In our defense, I feel like the Generation Z is

593
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 3: weirdly embracing the Office, which I think is such a

594
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 3: deeply uncool thing. So all of you can kiss my hans.

595
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 3: It is the most when I I was when I

596
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 3: wrote on The Other Two, which stars at thirteen year old.

597
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 3: We brought the thirteen year old into the writer's room

598
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 3: and we were like, what do what? What are thirteen

599
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 3: year olds today?

600
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 2: Like? What are like? What do you watch? And what

601
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 2: do you love? And he said, me and my friends

602
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 2: cannot stop talking about the Office and Friends and those

603
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 2: were the two big shows that they are obsessed with.

604
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,840
Speaker 2: And we were like, well, we're doomed because you're literally

605
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 2: coming in here talking to a group of television writers

606
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 2: and to hear that things seem to have stopped around

607
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 2: twenty ten.

608
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 3: Is Die You're horrifying, absolutely horrifying. Friends is another show

609
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 3: I never really got into. I did learn really to

610
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 3: play the theme song for a piano recital, and then

611
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 3: I would occasionally watch episodes and emotion was caught up

612
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 3: in the Ross and Rachel of it all, but it

613
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 3: didn't actually watch the show that much.

614
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 2: I was a very big NBC must CTV block kid,

615
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 2: like I grew up watching Caroline in the City and

616
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 2: Frasier and Friends was included in that. And here's what

617
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 2: I'll say about Friends now as i've I have rewatched,

618
00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 2: I've done like a rewatch once it came to Netflix.

619
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 2: I remember because it's very it's very on in the

620
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 2: background sort of thing. And I'll say this, it's interesting.

621
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 2: You didn't realize they really normalized every single character on

622
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 2: that show. If they are in the background and they're

623
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 2: not the focal point of the show is reading a book.

624
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 2: A lot of them are reading constantly on that show.

625
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 2: And it's such an interesting thing because you don't really

626
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 2: see that in that If someone's reading on television these days,

627
00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 2: it's a part of their character, right, Like they're like,

628
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 2: you're you're not like and that the thing is is

629
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 2: that does ring true of like most like a lot

630
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 2: of people I know are not smart, but they are reading,

631
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 2: you know. And one of my favorite screenshots that I

632
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 2: grabbed of friends is Rachel in the background of a

633
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:12,839
Speaker 2: scene reading a gigantic hardcover copy of The fountain Head.

634
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 2: And to discover to discover that that Rachel is a

635
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 2: libertarian and is was so so gratifying to me, so

636
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 2: funny because it was clearly, I mean clearly that's the

637
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 2: other thing. No thought is going like, there's not like

638
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,120
Speaker 2: Joey's reading these types of books and Rachel's reading these

639
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 2: like Rachel's reading all you know, like you know, romance

640
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,839
Speaker 2: novels or something like that. They just grabbed whatever book

641
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 2: they could find, and it happened to be The fountain Head.

642
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 3: This is the stager, you know, like they just books

643
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 3: to play in rooms and like, who gives a ship

644
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 3: what this actually is? It's just a book. It just

645
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 3: needs to be wow, exactly.

646
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. So they found a nine ran book and they

647
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 2: gave it to Rachel, which God's you know, maybe she

648
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 2: was reading it as you know a bit joe I

649
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 2: feel like playing a game. Okay, let's do it.

650
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 3: Do you want to play the game Gift or a

651
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 3: Curse or a game called Gift Master.

652
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 2: I would like to play Gift or a Curse, I think. Okay.

653
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 3: First of all, I just need a number between one

654
00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 3: and ten from you.

655
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 2: Seven. Okay.

656
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 3: I have to do some calculating in the next minute

657
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 3: or so. Promote something, recommend something, diminish something, do whatever

658
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 3: you want with this time. You have the mic.

659
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 2: I'll be right back. Yeah, I'm guess I'm gonna diminish

660
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 2: the Mulan movie, which I did just see, and it

661
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 2: is a horror. It is a horror of capitalism. It

662
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 2: really is a movie that is such a desperate cash

663
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 2: grab by Disney, which I guess is like every Disney movie,

664
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 2: but it's a movie that is so ruined by the

665
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,840
Speaker 2: lack of music. It's a terrible trash movie that is

666
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 2: for no one. It's certainly not for children. It's not

667
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 2: for adults. I don't know who it's for. They've removed

668
00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 2: all of the interiority of Mulan character by removing the music.

669
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 2: It is a movie about a gorgeous woman who gets

670
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 2: a blowout and then goes into battle, and that is

671
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 2: the and that's what the movie is. It's two hours

672
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 2: long and there she never has develops a character. She

673
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 2: never develops a personality beyond her blowout and a single tear.

674
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 2: Gongle is in it and is amazing. I will say that,

675
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 2: but none of the characters make any sense. Gonglee is

676
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 2: a witch for no reason, she dies for no reason.

677
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 2: And a spoiler alert. I guess if you haven't seen

678
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 2: Mulan yet, if you haven't paid thirty dollars, if you

679
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 2: haven't paid thirty dollars to see Mulan, which is an

680
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 2: Apple screen saver. It is an Apple TV screen saver.

681
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 2: It is all taking place, takes place in the desert apparently,

682
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 2: which is not something that anybody needed to see. Don't

683
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 2: rent move Laan. I am so glad you brought it

684
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 2: back to Mulan.

685
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 3: I haven't seen the movie, but it seems like the

686
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 3: most joyless thing that they could have possible.

687
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 2: Joyless, joyless, it is so it's it's it's sort of outrageous,

688
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 2: how I you don't The thing is is like even

689
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:12,319
Speaker 2: the most like basic like bad movies from Disney, I

690
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 2: find watchable like that. I find most of the remakes watchable,

691
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 2: But I will say Mulan is unwatchable in a completely

692
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:23,400
Speaker 2: incompetent sort of way, like really difficult. And I think

693
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 2: I think that have you seen any of the live.

694
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 3: Actually I've seen a single one of them.

695
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 2: Actually, I will say the only one, and this is

696
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 2: a controversial take. The only one that improves on the

697
00:37:33,480 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 2: original movie that it's remaking is Beauty and the Beast.

698
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:39,400
Speaker 2: And I'll say this not because of the singing. The

699
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 2: singing is bad. I will say. There's a lot of

700
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:43,719
Speaker 2: things that are worse about it, but I will say this,

701
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 2: they add an existential level of body horror to the servants,

702
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 2: where not only are do they have until the pedals

703
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 2: drop and then they become these objects forever and they

704
00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:00,359
Speaker 2: lose their humanity. But there's also an element where they're

705
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 2: slowly losing their sentience too, Like not only is the

706
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 2: urgency that like, oh, if you don't fall in love,

707
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 2: then we all stay fucking clocks and candlesticks, but we'll

708
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,240
Speaker 2: stay clocks and candlesticks without our human sentience as well,

709
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 2: which is actually sort of horrific. And there's like one

710
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 2: one character, there's a married couple that's a piano and

711
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:24,840
Speaker 2: an armoir and there's like a very tragic sort of

712
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,280
Speaker 2: undercurrent because they haven't seen each other since the curse began.

713
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,799
Speaker 2: Because he's a piano down in the ballroom and she's

714
00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 2: an armoire in the in the room, and I have

715
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 2: to say, it's really powerful and affecting.

716
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 3: Wow, maybe I need to give that a shut. Yeah,

717
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 3: I've steered clear of all of them. I feel like,

718
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,720
Speaker 3: do you remember deviant Art? Yeah, I feel like deviant

719
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 3: Art has just taken over the world or something. Yeah,

720
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 3: just like these new remakes, it's like, what are we talking? Like,

721
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 3: what is happening?

722
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:57,680
Speaker 2: I associate deviant Art with like furry adjacent porn, I guess.

723
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 3: Like putting our favorite characters in bad positions essentially, And

724
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,879
Speaker 3: I feel like that's basically what happened. And I think

725
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 3: the thing that opened this door was that weird photos

726
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 3: shoot or that campaign that Disney did probably in the

727
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 3: mid thousands, where they had celebrities dress up as their

728
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:18,880
Speaker 3: favorite Disney characters.

729
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 2: Do you remember this?

730
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 3: And they had was it some famous photographer I can't

731
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 3: remember who was?

732
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 2: Oh it was Annie, Yes it was, which is also

733
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 2: what was happening moment.

734
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 3: But I think that that was the thing that finally,

735
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 3: and then they let Tim Burton get into the als

736
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 3: in Wonderland, and away we go. We're just creating garbage

737
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 3: after garbage after garbage. Well, and now here we are

738
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,240
Speaker 3: with that. Not a Disney, not a Disney.

739
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 2: Gay. I will say that I have a lot of

740
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:52,239
Speaker 2: basic interests, but I won't. I blessedly missed that train, right, you.

741
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 3: Know, I'll enjoy an occasional Well, I can't remember the

742
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 3: last time I watched a Disney anything, but you know,

743
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 3: like a Disney movie, it does a but well.

744
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 2: It's all sort of Disney.

745
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 3: Now.

746
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 2: They own Marvel, they own Thoughts, they own It's it's that.

747
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,719
Speaker 3: A good way to go. I mean, corporations historically have

748
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 3: had our best interests in the yes, so maybe it's great.

749
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:18,240
Speaker 3: But yeah, let's be Disney has got to be stopped

750
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 3: at some point. I don't know who's breaking them break

751
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:24,680
Speaker 3: bring them up, please please let them. I'm so tired

752
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,000
Speaker 3: of these four hour long movies. Anyway, let's get into

753
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 3: gift or a curse. Okay, this is a first. Actually, uh,

754
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 3: listeners have now been sending in gift or a curse idea.

755
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 3: So one of these is from a listener and it's

756
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 3: the first one. This is okay, so basically, and I

757
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:40,839
Speaker 3: haven't even explained the rules to you. I'm gonna tell

758
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 3: you a thing. You're gonna tell me if it's a

759
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 3: gift or a curse and what and there are correct answers,

760
00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,560
Speaker 3: so just be aware of that. Okay, okay, Well, the

761
00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:51,279
Speaker 3: first thing is from a listener named Catherine, and she

762
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 3: sent in gift or a curse, A whole ass watermelon a.

763
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 2: Curse, an absolute curse. Why because it's an unyielding fruit.

764
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:07,720
Speaker 2: I find again, I'm not a domestic person. I wouldn't

765
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 2: really know where to begin with the watermelon. And I

766
00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 2: find water melon the fruit to be the worst fruit.

767
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,040
Speaker 2: I find it sort of it's mostly water, you know

768
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 2: right there, it's mostly water seeds. You're you're dealing with

769
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 2: seeds again, which is, you know, the sort of the

770
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,560
Speaker 2: theme of the episode. And I don't enjoy a seed.

771
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 2: I get scared of eating them. I find watermelon to

772
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 2: be a good candy flavor, a good dessert flavor, but

773
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 2: not a good fruit. And the candy flavor doesn't taste

774
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:42,879
Speaker 2: a lick like a real water in any I mean, no,

775
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 2: and any fruit that you can't eat I don't. I

776
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:50,920
Speaker 2: don't enjoy fruit that that leaves behind too much detris,

777
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 2: you know, like I don't like so much rime, so

778
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 2: much rind and what are you to do with it?

779
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 2: You know, I don't have a compost, so I would

780
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 2: say a curse.

781
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:07,920
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm going to have to say you are correct. Yes,

782
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,520
Speaker 3: the whole ass watermelon is absolutely a curse. I mean,

783
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,320
Speaker 3: I mean everything you just said, I'm fully on the

784
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,399
Speaker 3: same page as. The One thing I will say about

785
00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:19,319
Speaker 3: a whole ass watermelon is there's the potential there for

786
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 3: someone to carve away all out of it, which I

787
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,359
Speaker 3: do think is a fun thing to see. I mean,

788
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:26,719
Speaker 3: the last one I saw was probably nineteen ninety four.

789
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 3: But yeah, I'm picturing that in my mind right now,

790
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 3: and that's kind of like a summer jack o' lantern. Yeah.

791
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 2: I was about to say, why don't we see more

792
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:40,000
Speaker 2: hollowing out and carvings of watermelons? I wonder why we're

793
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:40,879
Speaker 2: not seeing more of.

794
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 3: A lost art it feels. But you know, watermelon if

795
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 3: even if it's available, I usually it's not my pick.

796
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,320
Speaker 3: It's no, and I'm not going to make it for myself.

797
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 3: What I mean, the work you have to put in

798
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:58,400
Speaker 3: for what is essentially no flavor. It's wild to me

799
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 3: that this fruit is it received any type of popularity

800
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,280
Speaker 3: whole ass not. I think it's a curse.

801
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 2: I had a water there's a water I saw a

802
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:13,600
Speaker 2: watermelon savice on a on a menu recently, and I said,

803
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,160
Speaker 2: I said, what is that? It's just the watermelon with

804
00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:20,040
Speaker 2: lemon juice on its right? Was there any other ingredient?

805
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 2: I'm sure there were radishes of some sort, but it

806
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 2: was a vegetarian savich and they used watermelon. Yeah, it's

807
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 2: a salad. It's called it's a salad with lemon juice,

808
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 2: an undressed salad.

809
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean a savich. If it doesn't have fish

810
00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:38,480
Speaker 3: in it, I don't know what we're talking about. You've

811
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:40,800
Speaker 3: got one out of one. Here's the second one. And

812
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,800
Speaker 3: now this is an interesting one. Gift or a curse.

813
00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:47,080
Speaker 3: Mountain time, the mountain Mountain.

814
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 2: Time, the time zone. I'm gonna say. I'm going to

815
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:57,239
Speaker 2: say a curse because here's the thing. I forget that

816
00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,879
Speaker 2: Mountain time zone exists. And there's something about Mountain time

817
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 2: zone that I question the validity of. And it's because

818
00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,759
Speaker 2: it makes me think, well, why is it because you're

819
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 2: higher up and there needs to be a sort of

820
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 2: three D time zone up there. I don't like it.

821
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 2: It's so few states, such a sliver of the time zone.

822
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:23,759
Speaker 2: There's something so clean about there just being East, Central

823
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 2: and Pacific time. There's something so clean about splitting it

824
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,520
Speaker 2: up into three different time zones. And you forget that

825
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 2: Mountain time zone even exists, and then you do, and

826
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 2: then something terrible happens. You miss a podcast because of

827
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:43,280
Speaker 2: all of your mountain recordings. Yeah, JOm, I'm sorry. No,

828
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 2: Mountain Time is an absolute gift, and partially for a

829
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 2: reason you pointed out, which is it's kind of a

830
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 2: shadow time zone. People forget about it. It's mysterious. We

831
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 2: don't know what the rules are, and you know I'm

832
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 2: coming from you times. You know I have to step

833
00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 2: up and defend the time zone. I do not know

834
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 2: what rules they're playing by with that thing. It's kind

835
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 2: of a mix between Pacific and Central. But it feels

836
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 2: I don't think anyone, even an expert, could define what

837
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 2: general Mountain time is. It just does feel very much

838
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 2: like you got too high and you needed a new

839
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:24,399
Speaker 2: SIME zone up there.

840
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 1: Now.

841
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:28,719
Speaker 2: Wait, very quick sidebar you're from Utah. Yes, you know that.

842
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,600
Speaker 2: This year they're premiering a new Real Housewives of Salt

843
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 2: Lake City.

844
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 3: I've heard about this and now listen, I don't know

845
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:39,279
Speaker 3: that much about Real Housewives if we recently started watching it,

846
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:42,840
Speaker 3: and I've very much enjoyed what I've seen. But this

847
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 3: Real house Wives of Salt Lake I will line up

848
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:47,319
Speaker 3: to watch whatever this is.

849
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 2: It's very interesting. I will say, Bridger, you think they're

850
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,959
Speaker 2: all going to be Mormon. They're not. One is a one.

851
00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:57,400
Speaker 2: There's two Mormons. One is a Pentecostal, one is a

852
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 2: former Mormon terned Muslim. Wow, one is just a former

853
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 2: Mormon that left the church. And yeah, and then there's

854
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,919
Speaker 2: two current Mormons. One of the Mormons is the air

855
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 2: or no, no, no, the Pentecostal one is the heir to

856
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 2: a bunch of businesses and restaurants and churches. And in

857
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 2: order to become in order to get access to the fortune,

858
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:25,480
Speaker 2: she was forced to marry her grandmother's second husband, and

859
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 2: so she married her grand Her step grandfather had a

860
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:32,359
Speaker 2: teenage son with him and was able to inherit the money.

861
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 2: So that's what you're sort of getting at with the

862
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,200
Speaker 2: real Housewives Assault Lake. Wait has it started airing? No,

863
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,480
Speaker 2: it will not air until after the election because I

864
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:42,840
Speaker 2: do believe that. Of course, the Mormons are voting for

865
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 2: Trump and they don't want they don't it. What are

866
00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,359
Speaker 2: you doing? Yeah, yeah, I mean, but got to check

867
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,720
Speaker 2: it out when it's a good one. Dive in fresh,

868
00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:56,360
Speaker 2: you know, because the housewives are impenetrable, because there's a

869
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:57,840
Speaker 2: lot of material to soak.

870
00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 3: Up, more than Lord of the Rings at this point.

871
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:05,880
Speaker 3: World that's been created by the lore. Yeah, it's wild. Wait,

872
00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:07,960
Speaker 3: I mean, do I stand any chance of becoming a

873
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:10,520
Speaker 3: real housewife of Salt Lake Is Well, I mean.

874
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,479
Speaker 2: I have no, but you could become you could become

875
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:17,560
Speaker 2: a Selling Sunset real estate agent. That's very true. We

876
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 2: started watching that as well. I mean, just the world

877
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,400
Speaker 2: of terrible people it goes on. It really is. But

878
00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 2: you know what I'll say about Selling Sunset. It is

879
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:26,719
Speaker 2: the only show that is about the thirty eight year

880
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:29,640
Speaker 2: old experience. There's not a lot of shows that star

881
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 2: thirty eight year olds, and and I'm glad to have it.

882
00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:37,239
Speaker 3: Bringing some visibility to the mid thirties, I think mid

883
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 3: to late thirties. I suppose. Wow, Real Housewives of Salt Lake.

884
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:42,680
Speaker 3: I didn't realize it was so close and that there

885
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:44,799
Speaker 3: were any details. I'm thrilled out of my mind.

886
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:48,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, they just released the trailer today, so you're not today. Yeah.

887
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:51,640
Speaker 3: Dune and Real Housewives aday.

888
00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:53,800
Speaker 2: Two epic franchises.

889
00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 3: Wow, what an update for everyone here. Okay, okay, Soper

890
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,399
Speaker 3: on one out of two. You've got a final thing

891
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 3: here to tell me, gift or a curse? Soup.

892
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 2: This is tough. This is tough because I'm not a

893
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:17,240
Speaker 2: soup man myself, but I'm playing. I'm a game player,

894
00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 2: you know, and so I know this. I'm glad that

895
00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,759
Speaker 2: there's a right answer here because otherwise, you know, it

896
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:27,359
Speaker 2: would make it easy. I'm gonna say a curse. I'm

897
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 2: going to say a curse because if I wanted a drink,

898
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 2: I would have a drink. But I want food, you know,

899
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 2: and soup is messy and there's no pleasant way to

900
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:44,400
Speaker 2: eat soup. There's with a spoon, a spoon, our worst utensil,

901
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:51,239
Speaker 2: our worst least versatile utensil out there, and there's just

902
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 2: this the aural sounds slurping, just slurping and clanging. I

903
00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,919
Speaker 2: just think of clanging a spoon against a bowl as

904
00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:03,520
Speaker 2: you try and get it, the uncouthness of sort of

905
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 2: tipping the bowl, getting the last drop of soup dripping

906
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:11,360
Speaker 2: all over your clothes. I'm going to have to say, unequivocally, a.

907
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:14,840
Speaker 3: Curse, Jeel. I think that you. I think you've just

908
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 3: made history here where I did have an answer to this,

909
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:21,799
Speaker 3: there was. I was going to say, soup is an

910
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:25,400
Speaker 3: absolute gift. But I think you've just made such so

911
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:29,920
Speaker 3: many salient a compelling case. Yes, yeah, that I'm going

912
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 3: to have to I'm changing my answer. I don't believe it.

913
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:35,840
Speaker 2: I think soup is a curse.

914
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 3: I mean, look, I enjoy a good soup, but how

915
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 3: often do you have a good soup?

916
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:41,840
Speaker 2: Rarely?

917
00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:45,400
Speaker 3: It's also a very weather specific food. Yeah, you know,

918
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:47,799
Speaker 3: if it's a thousand degrees outside, how often do you

919
00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:49,439
Speaker 3: want to dive into a bowl of hot soup?

920
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:52,320
Speaker 2: Or are the cold soup a vishy swa.

921
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:54,479
Speaker 3: Come on, I'm not eating a cold soup ever.

922
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:56,600
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no no no. I mean.

923
00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 3: When do I choose a old soup? I guess if

924
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 3: it's forced on me, I'll have it. But no, there's

925
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 3: always going to be another item I'd rather have than

926
00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:06,280
Speaker 3: cold soup.

927
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 2: So and you push it, you push, you push. I

928
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:11,960
Speaker 2: either you push a soup in one direction and it's

929
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 2: a drink, it's a smoothie. You push the soup in

930
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:15,680
Speaker 2: the other direction, and it could be a stew or

931
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 2: a full meal, you know, and it's just pick a lane,

932
00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:20,800
Speaker 2: I say to soup, pick a lane.

933
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I have a very hard time. Let's

934
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:27,480
Speaker 3: say I'm trying to think of soups. I really enjoy

935
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:30,719
Speaker 3: I enjoy a fu, I enjoy a but then you

936
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:32,880
Speaker 3: get into things where it's like almost or you like,

937
00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:36,400
Speaker 3: have a curry or you'll have you know, it's stew. Uh,

938
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,839
Speaker 3: soup is a curse. You you come up a curse

939
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,640
Speaker 3: two out of three here, just by your own I'm

940
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 3: proud of that.

941
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:46,400
Speaker 2: Are happy with that. I'm proud of you.

942
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:49,520
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, now that you've kind of done an okay

943
00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 3: job at the game, we're going to answer a couple

944
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:57,160
Speaker 3: of listener emails. This is called I said no questions.

945
00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,760
Speaker 3: People write into I said no gifts at gmail dot com.

946
00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:03,080
Speaker 3: The desperate for answers. They need answers to like what

947
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:04,480
Speaker 3: they need to get people in their lives.

948
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:05,239
Speaker 2: I love this thing.

949
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 3: Let me read the first one it says dear Bridger.

950
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:08,680
Speaker 2: They didn't.

951
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 3: Usually they'll say dear Bridger and guests or this sort

952
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 3: of thing, but they I guess we're just kind of

953
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 3: I didn't see.

954
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,240
Speaker 2: You in your night. Well maybe I won't answer.

955
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,759
Speaker 3: And old from an old friend from high school wants

956
00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:22,439
Speaker 3: to meet me for lunch after losing touch with each other.

957
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:26,239
Speaker 3: It's been thirty seven years since we've spoken, and we

958
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:28,919
Speaker 3: recently found each other on Facebook. I'd like to give

959
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 3: him a gift, but I feel a simple greeting card

960
00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:34,359
Speaker 3: is not enough. Any suggestion would be appreciated. We were

961
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:38,400
Speaker 3: both marching bad band nerds theater geeks in high school.

962
00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:41,920
Speaker 3: It would be great to rekindle this friendship. That's from Simon.

963
00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:46,640
Speaker 3: He's in California. Simon, this is a deeply strange situation

964
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:49,920
Speaker 3: you found yourself in, Joe. What's your initial feeling. Thirty

965
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,720
Speaker 3: seven years go by, Suddenly we're having lunch.

966
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:57,160
Speaker 2: Suddenly you're having lunch and listen. I think a lunch

967
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,840
Speaker 2: is not an unsafe activity to have. But as some

968
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:04,240
Speaker 2: who's sort of shrunk my own social circle down considerably

969
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:08,560
Speaker 2: because of just the logistics of seeing other people, I

970
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:12,880
Speaker 2: find it very odd to take the time to go

971
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,799
Speaker 2: out and do the theater of getting tested and all

972
00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 2: of that and eating on a sidewalk for someone you

973
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:23,600
Speaker 2: haven't seen in thirty seven years. I'll say that, but

974
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 2: I think it's you know, I don't know their situation. Though,

975
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 2: maybe he's lonely. I think maybe, you know, it could

976
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:35,960
Speaker 2: be a nice rekindling. I can't tell if there's sexual chemistry.

977
00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:40,319
Speaker 3: There, right, I mean, thirty seven years, there's finding each

978
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 3: other on Facebook. Actually it could go either way. Maybe

979
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:46,920
Speaker 3: there's some really hot pictures they've each got on Facebook

980
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:49,239
Speaker 3: and there is some sexual chemistry. Maybe there was some

981
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 3: high school chemistry that they're looking to rekindle. Maybe they

982
00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 3: were dear friends. But ultimately, what do you if I

983
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 3: was meeting somebody after decades, what gift? Would I take them?

984
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:02,320
Speaker 2: A lunch? I know what I would say.

985
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,359
Speaker 3: I would just buy lunch. I would just say it's

986
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:08,399
Speaker 3: on me. That to me, it feels like because if

987
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,080
Speaker 3: after thirty seven years, you show up with a wrapped gift,

988
00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:15,840
Speaker 3: suddenly I feel like you're coming on a little strong. Yeah,

989
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:17,640
Speaker 3: you could scare them away.

990
00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 2: I think though, if they're the one who reached out,

991
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 2: I think that the ball. I think a gift could

992
00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:25,800
Speaker 2: be appropriate, and I think a nice little nostalgic gift

993
00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:29,320
Speaker 2: could be nice, like get them, I would get them

994
00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:32,359
Speaker 2: like a copy of the play that you were in

995
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:35,239
Speaker 2: together in high school. So sweet now that I think

996
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 2: would that's that's thoughtful and it's not too intense. I

997
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:43,120
Speaker 2: think that is something that's that's definitely a workable gift

998
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 2: that won't seem crazy, that seems very casual, and it

999
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:48,960
Speaker 2: doesn't beg a gift in return either, Yeah, because not

1000
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,200
Speaker 2: like itels like it's not too extravagant to match it.

1001
00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:54,279
Speaker 2: So it's like, yeah, it doesn't feel expensive or you know,

1002
00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 2: it's not a Michael Scott bobblehead this sort of thing.

1003
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:00,479
Speaker 2: I think that that's good.

1004
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,759
Speaker 3: Or you know, maybe you quietly sing, you know, the

1005
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:06,920
Speaker 3: song from West Side Story that you did onto a tape.

1006
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 2: You give that to them and then it's kind of.

1007
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:12,120
Speaker 3: An eerie thing. They can take home and be haunted.

1008
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,840
Speaker 3: You never see them again, and that's a real you know,

1009
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,319
Speaker 3: let's say thirty seven you were in high school. This

1010
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:21,880
Speaker 3: person's around fifty. I guess they get to live another

1011
00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:26,640
Speaker 3: fifty years with Why did Simon record that song a

1012
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 3: cappella to a cassette tape, and that's something you can

1013
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:31,000
Speaker 3: leave that person with.

1014
00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:34,359
Speaker 2: And I mean a definite curse because now this person

1015
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:37,120
Speaker 2: has to track down a cassette player to play your

1016
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:37,960
Speaker 2: cassette tape.

1017
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:41,160
Speaker 3: But then that requires a lot of the cassette player

1018
00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 3: industry and it's like world changing for all of us.

1019
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 3: Probably not going to happen, well, Joel, my podcast was

1020
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:55,760
Speaker 3: my suggestions, Simon, get the play, get by lunch, maybe

1021
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:59,000
Speaker 3: do it all. Go show up to this thing so

1022
00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:03,359
Speaker 3: strong that the old friend can't be you know, they

1023
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 3: are forced to become a new friend. There's no telling

1024
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:10,000
Speaker 3: what's going to happen. Moving on, dear Bridger and guest, Joel,

1025
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:13,120
Speaker 3: you're definitely thank you here. My niece is going to

1026
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:15,440
Speaker 3: be born in a few months. She'll be my first

1027
00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:18,439
Speaker 3: niece and I'm excited to meet her. Once she's old enough.

1028
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:21,040
Speaker 3: I want to start some sort of birthday gift tradition

1029
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:23,040
Speaker 3: with her. I'd love to hear your ideas or thoughts.

1030
00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 3: And that's from Jennifer, and who knows where Jennifer is

1031
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:27,560
Speaker 3: about to have a baby niece. Do you have any

1032
00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 3: nieces or nephews?

1033
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:30,960
Speaker 2: I do. I have a niece and a nephew, and

1034
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:35,960
Speaker 2: then my best friend who is like a sister to me. Okay,

1035
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:40,360
Speaker 2: just literally last week had a baby girl.

1036
00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:44,360
Speaker 3: So congratulations. Yeah, yeah, do you give them gifts?

1037
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 2: I do. I give them bomb ass gifts because I

1038
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,440
Speaker 2: don't live near my real my nephew and my niece,

1039
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,640
Speaker 2: and so I need they're starting to hit the age

1040
00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:58,480
Speaker 2: where they'll remember me because I'm getting them incredible gifts, right,

1041
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 2: and that is sort of you know, that important someone

1042
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:05,359
Speaker 2: exactly exactly. They're not going to remember me by any

1043
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:10,000
Speaker 2: other means of course. So what you gotta starting a

1044
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:12,400
Speaker 2: lot of Legos? And I think that is a really

1045
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 2: fun gift. And I think Legos have crossed over into

1046
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:17,160
Speaker 2: unisex territory for.

1047
00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:18,719
Speaker 3: I think pretty progressive to me.

1048
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:22,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think, you know, a new Lego set

1049
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:25,280
Speaker 2: starting with the age appropriate ones for babies and moving

1050
00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,600
Speaker 2: on up, starting a left, because that's what we need

1051
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:30,640
Speaker 2: is we need more women in architecture. Oh please, Okay,

1052
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:33,680
Speaker 2: let's get more women in stem, more women in architecture,

1053
00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:37,799
Speaker 2: more women in building. Okay. So I think a nice

1054
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:41,680
Speaker 2: little Lego set every year is a great foundation for that.

1055
00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:43,920
Speaker 3: Right, every year, it'll become a little bit more complex.

1056
00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 3: This niece is going to be building things, building things,

1057
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:51,360
Speaker 3: building things. Suddenly they're twenty six, they're constructing a building

1058
00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:55,280
Speaker 3: in Dubai. Well, actually that's hope to buy maybe somewhere

1059
00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:59,200
Speaker 3: with a little more of a moral center. But I

1060
00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:01,719
Speaker 3: think that's not a bad idea because they've got them

1061
00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:03,840
Speaker 3: for all ages. As far as I know. This is

1062
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 3: coming from someone who doesn't know, but that's fine. Get

1063
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:08,840
Speaker 3: some legos for the niece.

1064
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 2: I think I got the big ones that you can't

1065
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:14,840
Speaker 2: swallow now for babies, and then slowly you get you

1066
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,480
Speaker 2: slowly you build her into the smaller and smaller ones.

1067
00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:19,000
Speaker 2: And that's what I say.

1068
00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:22,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then maybe at some point that becomes a

1069
00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:27,240
Speaker 3: college fund taking her to architecture school. I think that.

1070
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't even have anything else to say.

1071
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:32,080
Speaker 3: I've got two nieces. I just you know, get online

1072
00:57:32,120 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 3: and send them things that I think are fun or

1073
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:36,720

1095
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:46,520
Speaker 2: like you really, I do think is a special way.

1096
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:48,880
Speaker 2: Getting gifts is not my love language giving is.

1097
00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:49,680
Speaker 1: Sure?

1098
00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:51,280
Speaker 3: Are you uncomfortable with getting gifts?

1099
00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 2: I just I am at a point in my life

1100
00:58:54,680 --> 00:58:58,040
Speaker 2: where I have everything I need right and I don't

1101
00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:01,000
Speaker 2: like I live a very minimum life, and I don't

1102
00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,040
Speaker 2: like having a lot of things. In fact, I felt

1103
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:06,840
Speaker 2: a little guilt. The thought of your podcast really stresses

1104
00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:09,560
Speaker 2: me up because you must have accumulated so much shit

1105
00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:10,640
Speaker 2: oh over.

1106
00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:12,800
Speaker 3: The course of this podcast, you know, I was like, Oh,

1107
00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:16,120
Speaker 3: this was the one thing I can tell people who

1108
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:17,640
Speaker 3: are planning to move in the future is not to

1109
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:20,000
Speaker 3: start a podcast where you get gifts, because you will

1110
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 3: be moving a lot of objects that you had never

1111
00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,400
Speaker 3: planned on owning before and finding a new place for

1112
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:26,000
Speaker 3: them to live.

1113
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:28,520
Speaker 2: So and I don't like throwing things out like that.

1114
00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 2: It just it feels so nasty, and so yeah, I

1115
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:34,600
Speaker 2: just I would prefer not. I feel like I'm gonna.

1116
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:35,840
Speaker 3: At some point I'm going to have to have some

1117
00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:40,120
Speaker 3: sort of charity yard sale or something. I because it's

1118
00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:43,439
Speaker 3: it's becoming a mountain of items that are God bless

1119
00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:44,760
Speaker 3: everyone who's giving them to me.

1120

1128
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:19,560
Speaker 3: just yeah, we answered that question. The podcast is over.

1129
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:23,520
Speaker 3: I mean, whoa, it's been such a wonderful time happening.

1130
01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:26,680
Speaker 3: It was just a kind of a bumpy road to

1131
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 3: get here. But you know, worth every moment, though, worth

1132
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 3: every moment, worth everything, And it's just a thrill to

1133
01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:38,280
Speaker 3: see you over a camera. Hopefully at some point in

1134
01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:41,240
Speaker 3: the next one month to fifty years, I'll be able

1135
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 3: to see you in person.

1136
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you for doing the lower range too, because

1137
01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:49,040
Speaker 2: I don't have time for these people who are like

1138
01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:51,240
Speaker 2: you know it's gonna last three years. I don't have

1139
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:55,320
Speaker 2: time for that for anyone. No, OK, you to tell

1140
01:00:55,360 --> 01:00:55,640
Speaker 2: me that.

1141
01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:57,440
Speaker 3: I mean, even if it's true, I don't, I know,

1142
01:00:57,480 --> 01:00:59,680
Speaker 3: I don't need someone's saying that it's hopeless.

1143
01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:03,160
Speaker 2: No, I'm getting one of the shitty vaccines. I'm getting

1144
01:01:03,160 --> 01:01:05,080
Speaker 2: one of the shitty ones that comes out in November.

1145
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:06,040
Speaker 2: I'll take it.

1146
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:06,760
Speaker 3: I'll drink it.

1147
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 2: I have. I have signed up for every single vaccine

1148
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:12,360
Speaker 2: trial that I can find access to, I'll do it.

1149
01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:13,479
Speaker 2: I'll take one for the team.

1150
01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,320
Speaker 3: Have you been denied or is it just like a

1151
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:16,840
Speaker 3: waiting game.

1152
01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:19,080
Speaker 2: I think it's a waiting game. I think they've probably

1153
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,560
Speaker 2: they're probably full up on young people. I think they

1154
01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,960
Speaker 2: really need like older people to take the risk.

1155
01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:30,439
Speaker 3: And that's more of a roll of the dice. But well,

1156
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:32,640
Speaker 3: I'm glad that you're out there trying to get this backs.

1157
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:35,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll get it by any means necessary. I'm going

1158
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:36,960
Speaker 2: to get that vaccine.

1159
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 3: Anything that leads me to recording a podcast in a studio,

1160
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:44,560
Speaker 3: the first studio will just be me weeping for a

1161
01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:49,000
Speaker 3: full hour, just sobbing, and then we'll turn it off

1162
01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:51,440
Speaker 3: and then we can record the next episode, because I

1163
01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:54,840
Speaker 3: am I'm ready to not be in my home doing.

1164
01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:56,520
Speaker 2: Work, anything anything.
