<v Speaker 2>in his basement.

0:01:48.805 --> 0:01:49.125
<v Speaker 3>What's that?

0:01:49.325 --> 0:01:52.245
<v Speaker 6>What's the true retractable roof? As in like like a

<v Speaker 2>decades like Marvel.

0:02:02.965 --> 0:02:06.805
<v Speaker 1>Never had a drink in his life, never had any drugs. Yeah.

0:02:07.045 --> 0:02:08.965
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's a fascinating document And the other thing is

0:02:08.965 --> 0:02:10.885
<v Speaker 2>he just loves watching TV with his family. It's for

0:02:11.005 --> 0:02:13.565
<v Speaker 2>Edie Murphy's TV show, you know, and the MTV show

0:02:13.565 --> 0:02:14.525
<v Speaker 2>has been running for years.

0:02:14.565 --> 0:02:15.285
<v Speaker 1>Ridiculousness.

0:02:15.805 --> 0:02:19.445
<v Speaker 7>Yes, yeah, the clip that it's just like clips off YouTube.

0:02:19.645 --> 0:02:20.764
<v Speaker 7>He's laughing out.

0:02:20.645 --> 0:02:23.365
<v Speaker 1>Loud as he's talking about funny cat videos.

0:02:24.205 --> 0:02:28.005
<v Speaker 8>Drave Deck or something they've done like a billion episodes

0:02:28.045 --> 0:02:30.685
<v Speaker 8>of it, just watching Eddie Murphy sat his couch, but

0:02:30.765 --> 0:02:33.445
<v Speaker 8>how much he loves his falling asleep watching that show,

0:02:33.485 --> 0:02:34.725
<v Speaker 8>as like he's just like.

0:02:36.725 --> 0:02:37.165
<v Speaker 1>The other thing.

0:02:37.205 --> 0:02:40.285
<v Speaker 2>Then about another icon of entertainment is a brilliant book

0:02:40.285 --> 0:02:42.484
<v Speaker 2>that I'm halfway through at the moment, is simply called Clint.

0:02:42.845 --> 0:02:46.085
<v Speaker 2>It's about Clint Eastwood, the man and his movies. Same

0:02:46.165 --> 0:02:49.165
<v Speaker 2>authorught Sean Levy. The wrote a best selling book about

0:02:49.165 --> 0:02:52.925
<v Speaker 2>Paul Newman that was such a wildly entertaining read. This

0:02:53.005 --> 0:02:54.845
<v Speaker 2>is as well. Clint Eastwood, another person has been around

0:02:54.845 --> 0:02:58.245
<v Speaker 2>for a decade, six decades of acting. And it's not

0:02:58.285 --> 0:03:00.165
<v Speaker 2>just about his life and times. It's also, at the

0:03:00.205 --> 0:03:04.764
<v Speaker 2>same time just how the culture has has has has

0:03:04.885 --> 0:03:07.925
<v Speaker 2>changed and transformed so many times. If you think about

0:03:07.965 --> 0:03:11.405
<v Speaker 2>how the masculinity that he embodied, like Dirty Harry, and

0:03:11.445 --> 0:03:14.005
<v Speaker 2>where we are now and what's changed and what hasn't changed.

0:03:14.205 --> 0:03:17.245
<v Speaker 2>It's a brilliant book. Cannot recommend it enough about entertainment

0:03:17.285 --> 0:03:19.605
<v Speaker 2>and culture and the great, the one and only and

0:03:19.885 --> 0:03:23.445
<v Speaker 2>also brilliant director as well. Clint Eastwood is simply called Clinton.

0:03:23.485 --> 0:03:25.765
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you now you look at photos of how

0:03:25.765 --> 0:03:26.285
<v Speaker 2>are you used to look?

0:03:26.285 --> 0:03:27.005
<v Speaker 1>When he was younger?

0:03:27.485 --> 0:03:32.165
<v Speaker 8>What an amazing looking guy he was, and his sunned

0:06:32.604 --> 0:06:33.844
<v Speaker 2>whether you can have a little tap.

0:06:33.604 --> 0:06:35.805
