Authentic Conversations on Self-Expression

After a year of stepping away from the mic, we're back with a renewed sense of purpose and authenticity on the "Walk the Line Podcast." You won't want to miss this engaging episode featuring the brilliant storyteller Mike Iamele. Together, we navigate through the chaos of the past few years, sharing Mike's intriguing metaphor of life as a pot of ingredients. It's a heartfelt conversation that skips the politics and focuses on growth, creativity, and finding one's true path amidst the unpredictability of life.

Join us on a liberating journey of self-discovery, where we candidly discuss everything from experimenting with psychedelics to the challenges of societal norms. Mate and I open up about our personal experiences, including the hilarious and enlightening moments that come with using mushrooms for spiritual exploration. We also tackle the performative nature of social media and the internalized homophobia that often lingers beneath the surface, all while emphasizing the importance of shedding the need for external validation and embracing authenticity in its purest form.

In the final chapters, we reflect on the complexities of privilege, high-profile events, and the playful yet honest adventures of exploring pop culture. From the excitement of musical casting to nostalgia over movies with hidden homoerotic themes, we share our personal stories with humour and honesty. You'll hear about Mike's unique Sunday rituals with his husband, filled with laughter and growth, and their exploration of cultural shifts. So, tune in for an episode full of connection, humour, and the joy of living authentically.

Speaker 2: life gets in the way, and I've always been

32
00:01:17,650 --> 00:01:18,331

Speaker 2: minute, still in New York, is it Boston?

45
00:01:49,031 --> 00:01:49,540
Speaker 2: I'm in Boston.

46
00:01:49,660 --> 00:01:50,704
Speaker 2: Oh, sure you're in Boston.

47
00:01:51,346 --> 00:01:52,844
Speaker 2: That just shows you how rubbish my

48
00:01:52,884 --> 00:01:53,506
Speaker 2: geography is.

49
00:01:54,742 --> 00:01:56,067
Speaker 1: I don't remember a thing about our

50
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:56,582
Speaker 1: interview.

51
00:01:56,602 --> 00:01:59,271
Speaker 1: I'll be honest, it was two years?

52
00:02:00,704 --> 00:02:01,527
Speaker 2: How long ago was that?

53
00:02:02,801 --> 00:02:03,985
Speaker 2: Four or five years ago?

54
00:02:04,005 --> 00:02:07,344
Speaker 2: Wow, have I been doing this for that long?

55
00:02:08,848 --> 00:02:09,550
Speaker 2: Can't believe it.

56
00:02:09,851 --> 00:02:10,432
Speaker 2: Can't believe it.

57
00:02:10,881 --> 00:02:12,848
Speaker 2: I could be called a veteran in podcasting

58
00:02:12,888 --> 00:02:13,129
Speaker 2: right now.

59
00:02:13,762 --> 00:02:15,368
Speaker 2: I should be doing this full time by now,

60
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,968
Speaker 2: but I'm such a fucking lazy bastard I

61
00:02:18,008 --> 00:02:18,730
Speaker 2: haven't done it yet.

62
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,566
Speaker 2: That's the fucking sole reason.

63
00:02:21,586 --> 00:02:22,228
Speaker 2: The sole reason.

64
00:02:23,382 --> 00:02:25,247
Speaker 2: But I tell you what you mentioned it's a

65
00:02:25,267 --> 00:02:27,733
Speaker 2: bit crazy over the US right now, isn't it?

66
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,386
Speaker 2: What's it like over there with all the

67
00:02:30,426 --> 00:02:31,388
Speaker 2: craziness going on?

68
00:02:32,231 --> 00:02:33,053
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I don't know.

69
00:02:33,180 --> 00:02:36,714
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like every I try to not talk

70
00:02:36,754 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: about it, like when I'm out with friends,

71
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:39,626
Speaker 1: because I feel like people always want to

72
00:02:39,646 --> 00:02:41,001
Speaker 1: bring it up and I'm just kind of like you

73
00:02:41,021 --> 00:02:41,401
Speaker 1: know I'm chilling.

74
00:02:41,421 --> 00:02:42,342
Speaker 1: I'm just kind of like you know I'm chilling,

75
00:02:42,362 --> 00:02:43,644
Speaker 1: I'm trying to hang out and have some fun.

76
00:02:43,664 --> 00:02:45,466
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's been pretty crazy.

77
00:02:45,506 --> 00:02:47,048
Speaker 1: I mean, a lot of people I know's jobs have

78
00:02:47,068 --> 00:02:47,828
Speaker 1: been affected.

79
00:02:47,868 --> 00:02:49,170
Speaker 1: Like it's just been a lot.

80
00:02:50,211 --> 00:02:51,352
Speaker 2: It's crazy, isn't it?

81
00:02:51,593 --> 00:02:52,834
Speaker 2: To be fair, I think it's the whole world.

82
00:02:52,854 --> 00:02:54,376
Speaker 2: It's just gone to shit right now.

83
00:02:54,616 --> 00:03:07,126
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you know you've got a yin and yang

84
00:03:07,146 --> 00:03:07,828
Speaker 2: balances itself out.

85
00:03:07,889 --> 00:03:08,892
Speaker 2: I love it, but we don't want to talk about

86
00:03:08,912 --> 00:03:10,659
Speaker 2: the politics stuff anyway, because it's so

87
00:03:10,699 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 2: boring.

88
00:03:11,582 --> 00:03:13,712
Speaker 2: It's so boring, but wait, we've not spoken

89
00:03:13,732 --> 00:03:15,318
Speaker 2: for about, I say, four or five years, but

90
00:03:15,338 --> 00:03:16,925
Speaker 2: what you've been doing for the past how

91
00:03:16,945 --> 00:03:18,592
Speaker 2: many years you've been keeping yourself out

92
00:03:18,612 --> 00:03:18,933
Speaker 2: of trouble?

93
00:03:19,857 --> 00:03:22,003
Speaker 1: oh, geez, not very well, keeping myself in

94
00:03:22,043 --> 00:03:22,644
Speaker 1: lots of trouble.

95
00:03:22,724 --> 00:03:25,109
Speaker 1: But uh, yeah, you know, I thought about

96
00:03:25,149 --> 00:03:26,532
Speaker 1: like, oh, he's probably going to ask me

97
00:03:26,552 --> 00:03:29,446
Speaker 1: what I've been up to and, honestly, I've

98
00:03:29,486 --> 00:03:31,211
Speaker 1: been dissolving.

99
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,005
Speaker 1: So I've got this metaphor that I really

100
00:03:33,085 --> 00:03:36,757
Speaker 1: like where, you know, life just gives you a

101
00:03:36,797 --> 00:03:37,399
Speaker 1: bunch of shit.

102
00:03:37,459 --> 00:03:39,561
Speaker 1: Right, like you've just like got shit and I

103
00:03:39,621 --> 00:03:40,606
Speaker 1: see that as ingredients.

104
00:03:40,980 --> 00:03:42,183
Speaker 1: You know, you've got these carrots.

105
00:03:42,463 --> 00:03:43,565
Speaker 1: You know, like, what the fuck do I do with

106
00:03:43,585 --> 00:03:44,147
Speaker 1: these carrots?

107
00:03:44,427 --> 00:03:45,169
Speaker 1: And you look at them.

108
00:03:45,229 --> 00:03:46,251
Speaker 1: You don't know what to do with them.

109
00:03:46,291 --> 00:03:46,973
Speaker 1: So you look around.

110
00:03:46,993 --> 00:03:52,742
Speaker 1: You're like who else has got carrots?

111
00:03:52,782 --> 00:03:54,723
Speaker 1: What are they doing with their carrots?

112
00:03:54,763 --> 00:03:55,965
Speaker 1: And I'm really focused on my carrots and

113
00:03:55,985 --> 00:03:57,406
Speaker 1: I'm, you know, roasting them.

114
00:03:57,446 --> 00:03:58,227
Speaker 1: I'm doing whatever the fuck.

115
00:03:58,247 --> 00:03:59,548
Speaker 1: I throw it into a pot and I forget about my

116
00:03:59,568 --> 00:03:59,788
Speaker 1: carrots.

117
00:03:59,808 --> 00:04:00,889
Speaker 1: And then I go over to my onions.

118
00:04:00,929 --> 00:04:02,531
Speaker 1: I I'm looking out trying to figure this out

119
00:04:02,811 --> 00:04:05,433
Speaker 1: and I throw them into a pot and eventually

120
00:04:05,834 --> 00:04:07,475
Speaker 1: I figure out that I've got to nourish

121
00:04:07,495 --> 00:04:07,916
Speaker 1: myself.

122
00:04:08,096 --> 00:04:09,881
Speaker 1: I got to put water in this pot and I

123
00:04:09,901 --> 00:04:11,625
Speaker 1: stopped putting water in the pot, which is

124
00:04:11,646 --> 00:04:12,307
Speaker 1: what I've been doing.

125
00:04:12,709 --> 00:04:14,121
Speaker 1: And here's the real trick which I'm

126
00:04:14,361 --> 00:04:16,648
Speaker 1: terrible at I've got all these ingredients.

127
00:04:16,728 --> 00:04:18,052
Speaker 1: I forgot I even put them in the pot.

128
00:04:18,340 --> 00:04:20,523
Speaker 1: I finally got water and now I got to turn

129
00:04:20,543 --> 00:04:22,626
Speaker 1: on the simmer and just let go and let it

130
00:04:22,687 --> 00:04:23,828
Speaker 1: all dissolve into itself.

131
00:04:24,389 --> 00:04:26,132
Speaker 1: And that's what I feel like I've been doing,

132
00:04:26,192 --> 00:04:28,315
Speaker 1: at least this last year is I've just been

133
00:04:28,355 --> 00:04:28,916
Speaker 1: dissolving.

134
00:04:28,980 --> 00:04:30,826
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if the video is going

135
00:04:30,846 --> 00:04:32,571
Speaker 1: to be on here, but I've got a middle part.

136
00:04:32,961 --> 00:04:34,467
Speaker 1: I've got a flannel shirt on.

137
00:04:34,620 --> 00:04:36,767
Speaker 1: I've got a T-shirt that says show me your

138
00:04:36,807 --> 00:04:38,191
Speaker 1: tits, and it's a bunch of birds.

139
00:04:50,500 --> 00:04:51,343
Speaker 2: I feel like every version of me that has

140
00:04:51,363 --> 00:04:52,205
Speaker 2: ever existed is just dissolving into one,

141
00:04:52,226 --> 00:04:53,008
Speaker 2: and that's what I'm up to right now.

142
00:04:53,028 --> 00:04:53,329
Speaker 2: I tell you what.

143
00:04:53,349 --> 00:04:54,192
Speaker 2: That's probably the best metaphor for a

144
00:04:54,212 --> 00:04:55,014
Speaker 2: current situation I've ever heard in my

145
00:04:55,034 --> 00:04:55,255
Speaker 2: entire life.

146
00:04:55,275 --> 00:04:55,596
Speaker 2: That's brilliant.

147
00:04:55,616 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 2: I think it's the the best way to describe

148
00:04:56,499 --> 00:04:56,539
Speaker 2: it.

149
00:04:56,559 --> 00:04:57,201
Speaker 2: It's what would you?

150
00:04:57,241 --> 00:04:58,445
Speaker 2: Why would you say you've been dissolving,

151
00:04:58,465 --> 00:04:59,669
Speaker 2: is it just I don't know?

152
00:04:59,869 --> 00:05:00,311
Speaker 2: What would you say?

153
00:05:00,331 --> 00:05:00,962
Speaker 2: The reason behind?

154
00:05:01,043 --> 00:05:01,123
Speaker 1: it.

155
00:05:01,745 --> 00:05:03,031
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I've got a story.

156
00:05:03,312 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: I think I talked about this on the podcast,

157
00:05:05,621 --> 00:05:08,971
Speaker 1: but, um, so, uh, I'm in a relationship, I'm

158
00:05:08,991 --> 00:05:11,478
Speaker 1: married, and that relationship is the

159
00:05:11,538 --> 00:05:13,384
Speaker 1: subject of a musical, which is a very

160
00:05:13,464 --> 00:05:14,789
Speaker 1: strange thing, I know.

161
00:05:14,889 --> 00:05:16,154
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, did I not tell you this?

162
00:05:16,535 --> 00:05:19,043
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it was a musical based on it.

163
00:05:19,283 --> 00:05:21,849
Speaker 1: Um, the very short story for everyone, and

164
00:05:21,868 --> 00:05:24,193
Speaker 1: the backstory is um, I had never been with

165
00:05:24,214 --> 00:05:24,642
Speaker 1: a man.

166
00:05:24,863 --> 00:05:27,564
Speaker 1: I got sick, me and my friend, one of my

167
00:05:27,584 --> 00:05:28,386
Speaker 1: buddies from college.

168
00:05:28,787 --> 00:05:29,589
Speaker 1: He took care of me.

169
00:05:30,110 --> 00:05:32,241
Speaker 1: We got together and so I wrote about it.

170
00:05:32,402 --> 00:05:34,608
Speaker 1: I thought, you know, it's easier for me to

171
00:05:34,668 --> 00:05:36,341
Speaker 1: write about it and have people talk shit

172
00:05:36,361 --> 00:05:38,766
Speaker 1: behind my back than to come out to people

173
00:05:38,786 --> 00:05:39,327
Speaker 1: individually.

174
00:05:40,109 --> 00:05:41,312
Speaker 1: And so I wrote about it.

175
00:05:41,553 --> 00:05:43,703
Speaker 1: And the next morning, 100,000 people had

176
00:05:43,763 --> 00:05:47,489
Speaker 1: shared this post and so it went viral.

177
00:05:47,589 --> 00:05:49,792
Speaker 1: You know, some like Yahoo News and

178
00:05:50,293 --> 00:05:52,101
Speaker 1: Huffington Post wanted to talk to me, and

179
00:05:52,121 --> 00:05:53,386
Speaker 1: then I kind of forgot about this thing.

180
00:05:53,486 --> 00:05:54,269
Speaker 1: It wasn't a big deal.

181
00:05:54,961 --> 00:05:58,283
Speaker 1: And about six months later, maybe, two kids

182
00:05:58,383 --> 00:06:00,924
Speaker 1: reached out to me and said can we write a

183
00:06:00,964 --> 00:06:01,888
Speaker 1: musical about this?

184
00:06:02,641 --> 00:06:04,573
Speaker 1: And I thought this was, you know, like a

185
00:06:04,593 --> 00:06:05,620
Speaker 1: grad school project.

186
00:06:05,881 --> 00:06:07,287
Speaker 1: And I said, yeah, of course, you know.

187
00:06:07,781 --> 00:06:08,785
Speaker 1: And so they came to Boston.

188
00:06:08,825 --> 00:06:09,468
Speaker 1: They're from New York.

189
00:06:09,620 --> 00:06:11,645
Speaker 1: They came to Boston and they interviewed

190
00:06:11,746 --> 00:06:13,651
Speaker 1: each of us for an hour each and they

191
00:06:13,671 --> 00:06:15,725
Speaker 1: recorded it, and we never talked about what

192
00:06:15,746 --> 00:06:16,187
Speaker 1: we said.

193
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,723
Speaker 1: We honestly didn't think much about it, we

194
00:06:18,764 --> 00:06:20,401
Speaker 1: weren't even together in the room, and so

195
00:06:20,421 --> 00:06:23,406
Speaker 1: then we had been in contact with them

196
00:06:23,426 --> 00:06:25,209
Speaker 1: throughout the years and during the height

197
00:06:25,229 --> 00:06:27,593
Speaker 1: of COVID they had a lot of time and they

198
00:06:27,653 --> 00:06:31,005
Speaker 1: finished this musical, and so the first

199
00:06:31,065 --> 00:06:33,552
Speaker 1: time we saw it was 2022.

200
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,246
Speaker 1: We were in New York and they got into the

201
00:06:36,326 --> 00:06:38,412
Speaker 1: New York Theater Festival and we saw it.

202
00:06:38,761 --> 00:06:39,927
Speaker 1: It was phenomenal.

203
00:06:40,020 --> 00:06:41,701
Speaker 1: It was actually very, very good, very

204
00:06:41,761 --> 00:06:43,669
Speaker 1: moving, incredible music.

205
00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:45,527
Speaker 1: I'm not a musical person, but incredible.

206
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,150
Speaker 1: And then they decided to raise some money

207
00:06:49,381 --> 00:06:51,688
Speaker 1: and they had a two-week run in New York in

208
00:06:51,708 --> 00:06:52,491
Speaker 1: 2023.

209
00:06:53,100 --> 00:06:54,780
Speaker 1: And our families got to come and see it and

210
00:06:54,820 --> 00:06:55,926
Speaker 1: they had like an after party.

211
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,827
Speaker 1: I got to pretend I was a celebrity, Very,

212
00:06:57,867 --> 00:06:58,269
Speaker 1: very cool.

213
00:06:59,060 --> 00:07:01,538
Speaker 1: And then now they're actually in the

214
00:07:01,558 --> 00:07:03,744
Speaker 1: process of trying to put on a much bigger

215
00:07:03,804 --> 00:07:06,049
Speaker 1: run, and so I legally can't give many

216
00:07:06,089 --> 00:07:09,361
Speaker 1: details about that, but it is moving and so,

217
00:07:11,227 --> 00:07:15,286
Speaker 1: anyway, why am I dissolving that 2023 run?

218
00:07:15,507 --> 00:07:17,605
Speaker 1: I went to it, I saw it.

219
00:07:17,940 --> 00:07:19,467
Speaker 1: It was pretty vulnerable.

220
00:07:19,820 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 1: You know there's a lot of things I mean,

221
00:07:21,140 --> 00:07:22,482
Speaker 1: they've changed a lot, but still felt

222
00:07:22,502 --> 00:07:22,922
Speaker 1: vulnerable.

223
00:07:22,942 --> 00:07:25,545
Speaker 1: There's a lot of things that have changed a

224
00:07:25,565 --> 00:07:26,186
Speaker 1: lot, but still felt vulnerable.

225
00:07:26,206 --> 00:07:27,207
Speaker 1: I got home and, um, we're.

226
00:07:27,227 --> 00:07:28,509
Speaker 1: You know, I was kind of felt like I had to

227
00:07:28,529 --> 00:07:30,751
Speaker 1: go to the bathroom at the airport and I

228
00:07:30,771 --> 00:07:32,473
Speaker 1: thought, you know, I'm fine, let me get an

229
00:07:32,533 --> 00:07:32,814
Speaker 1: Uber.

230
00:07:33,294 --> 00:07:34,996
Speaker 1: I get an Uber and all of a sudden I'm like,

231
00:07:35,296 --> 00:07:36,638
Speaker 1: holy shit, I'm going to shit my pants.

232
00:07:37,458 --> 00:07:39,581
Speaker 1: And so now I'm freaking out because I'm

233
00:07:39,601 --> 00:07:41,182
Speaker 1: going to shit my pants and I'm stuck in

234
00:07:41,202 --> 00:07:43,204
Speaker 1: traffic and you know, I only live 15

235
00:07:43,224 --> 00:07:43,945
Speaker 1: minutes from the airport.

236
00:07:43,965 --> 00:07:45,967
Speaker 1: It's not very far, but I don't think I'm

237
00:07:45,987 --> 00:07:46,488
Speaker 1: going to make it.

238
00:07:47,208 --> 00:07:49,811
Speaker 1: And so I'm like, you know, now I'm sweating,

239
00:07:49,851 --> 00:07:51,833
Speaker 1: like I am just sweating, I'm holding it in

240
00:07:51,873 --> 00:07:53,355
Speaker 1: and I'm freaking out.

241
00:07:53,455 --> 00:07:55,841
Speaker 1: And when you're in a confined space and you

242
00:07:55,901 --> 00:07:58,665
Speaker 1: need to do something like it just increases

243
00:07:58,685 --> 00:08:01,108
Speaker 1: the anxiety, oh yeah, and so I'm freaking

244
00:08:01,269 --> 00:08:01,429
Speaker 1: out.

245
00:08:02,130 --> 00:08:04,834
Speaker 1: And we are maybe a mile from my house now

246
00:08:04,934 --> 00:08:07,223
Speaker 1: and we're at a light, and I looked to my

247
00:08:07,263 --> 00:08:09,269
Speaker 1: husband, garrett, and I said I got to get

248
00:08:09,289 --> 00:08:10,843
Speaker 1: out of this Uber, I'm going to shit my

249
00:08:10,863 --> 00:08:11,184
Speaker 1: pants.

250
00:08:11,505 --> 00:08:13,202
Speaker 1: And he's like, okay, and I just opened the

251
00:08:13,243 --> 00:08:15,931
Speaker 1: door at this red light and I step outside

252
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,021
Speaker 1: and you know.

253
00:08:18,081 --> 00:08:20,663
Speaker 1: So he calls me and he says why don't you go

254
00:08:20,703 --> 00:08:21,304
Speaker 1: into a hotel?

255
00:08:21,404 --> 00:08:23,125
Speaker 1: There was a hotel on the way and I said

256
00:08:23,345 --> 00:08:25,707
Speaker 1: Garrett, if I look at another human being,

257
00:08:25,908 --> 00:08:26,828
Speaker 1: I will shit my pants.

258
00:08:26,948 --> 00:08:29,210
Speaker 1: I can't, I've got to just keep walking.

259
00:08:29,250 --> 00:08:30,772
Speaker 1: I cannot look at someone, I can't do

260
00:08:30,832 --> 00:08:31,152
Speaker 1: anything.

261
00:08:31,732 --> 00:08:34,234
Speaker 1: So I am walking down the street and

262
00:08:34,375 --> 00:08:36,056
Speaker 1: freaking out Like I'm having a panic attack

263
00:08:36,576 --> 00:08:37,897
Speaker 1: and he calls me.

264
00:08:39,380 --> 00:08:40,362
Speaker 1: He's like okay, I dropped off the bags,

265
00:08:40,682 --> 00:08:41,463
Speaker 1: I'll pick you up.

266
00:08:41,584 --> 00:08:43,386
Speaker 1: I've got a change of clothes, I've got

267
00:08:43,487 --> 00:08:45,149
Speaker 1: underwear, I've got a bag, like it doesn't

268
00:08:45,169 --> 00:08:46,892
Speaker 1: matter what happens, I'm going to pick you

269
00:08:46,972 --> 00:08:47,693
Speaker 1: up, we're going to go home.

270
00:08:48,575 --> 00:08:50,164
Speaker 1: And he finally comes to me.

271
00:08:50,204 --> 00:08:51,849
Speaker 1: I'm about two minutes from home, very close

272
00:08:51,869 --> 00:08:54,681
Speaker 1: to home at this point, and I can't get in

273
00:08:54,701 --> 00:08:55,041
Speaker 1: the car.

274
00:08:55,441 --> 00:08:56,581
Speaker 1: I'm freaking out.

275
00:08:56,641 --> 00:08:58,582
Speaker 1: I've never had panic like this before.

276
00:08:59,042 --> 00:09:01,263
Speaker 1: I'm freaking out and I'm like almost on the

277
00:09:01,303 --> 00:09:01,963
Speaker 1: verge of tears.

278
00:09:01,983 --> 00:09:03,944
Speaker 1: And he's like Mike, if you shit your pants,

279
00:09:03,964 --> 00:09:05,325
Speaker 1: you shit your pants, I get in this car.

280
00:09:05,945 --> 00:09:07,906
Speaker 1: So I get in the car, we get home.

281
00:09:08,526 --> 00:09:10,207
Speaker 1: I can't go to the bathroom right away, of

282
00:09:10,227 --> 00:09:12,287
Speaker 1: course, and so it was all kind of in my

283
00:09:12,327 --> 00:09:15,249
Speaker 1: head and I thought you know what the stress

284
00:09:15,288 --> 00:09:16,969
Speaker 1: of all of this must have really gotten to

285
00:09:17,029 --> 00:09:17,189
Speaker 1: me.

286
00:09:17,629 --> 00:09:20,651
Speaker 1: And if that's the case, then I got to

287
00:09:20,731 --> 00:09:22,671
Speaker 1: figure this out because there's going to be

288
00:09:22,691 --> 00:09:25,172
Speaker 1: a lot of people commenting on me and, given

289
00:09:25,212 --> 00:09:26,333
Speaker 1: the subject matter, they're going to have a

290
00:09:26,353 --> 00:09:28,734
Speaker 1: lot of stories about my sexuality, about

291
00:09:28,774 --> 00:09:30,794
Speaker 1: you know things in the story, like I've got

292
00:09:30,814 --> 00:09:32,455
Speaker 1: to figure out how to deal with this

293
00:09:32,495 --> 00:09:32,895
Speaker 1: attention.

294
00:09:33,756 --> 00:09:36,717
Speaker 1: And so the next day I have never done this,

295
00:09:36,857 --> 00:09:38,858
Speaker 1: I am not one of these like really great

296
00:09:38,918 --> 00:09:40,898
Speaker 1: people I meditated for an hour.

297
00:09:41,379 --> 00:09:44,446
Speaker 1: It was hell what I did and I got to just

298
00:09:44,466 --> 00:09:45,047
Speaker 1: figure that out.

299
00:09:45,368 --> 00:09:47,000
Speaker 1: And then I started taking, you know,

300
00:09:47,020 --> 00:09:49,747
Speaker 1: psilocybin like magic mushrooms, microdose

301
00:09:49,847 --> 00:09:50,268
Speaker 1: on that.

302
00:09:51,090 --> 00:09:52,741
Speaker 1: I started, you know, doing a lot of

303
00:09:52,761 --> 00:09:54,724
Speaker 1: cannabis edibles illegal here in

304
00:09:54,965 --> 00:09:55,646
Speaker 1: Massachusetts.

305
00:09:56,808 --> 00:10:00,035
Speaker 1: I started, you know my friend Eli,

306
00:10:00,700 --> 00:10:02,266
Speaker 1: brilliant, brilliant man.

307
00:10:02,346 --> 00:10:04,233
Speaker 1: He was up in you know um, I think, like

308
00:10:04,835 --> 00:10:07,762
Speaker 1: banking, some high up position, and he left

309
00:10:07,823 --> 00:10:11,669
Speaker 1: it all to sleep on his you know uh friend's

310
00:10:11,709 --> 00:10:13,953
Speaker 1: floor and just do spiritual shit.

311
00:10:14,614 --> 00:10:18,030
Speaker 1: And so me and him, every wednesday, I take

312
00:10:18,090 --> 00:10:19,996
Speaker 1: edibles, he takes psilocybin and we talk

313
00:10:20,037 --> 00:10:22,664
Speaker 1: for seven hours straight every shame I've

314
00:10:22,704 --> 00:10:24,669
Speaker 1: ever said anything that like I've ever felt.

315
00:10:24,729 --> 00:10:25,130
Speaker 1: I've never said.

316
00:10:25,150 --> 00:10:26,053
Speaker 1: I just put it out there.

317
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:27,345
Speaker 1: I keep putting it out there.

318
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,503
Speaker 1: And so, through some of that oh other stuff

319
00:10:31,523 --> 00:10:32,989
Speaker 1: I'm doing, oh man, I've got.

320
00:10:33,521 --> 00:10:35,709
Speaker 1: I am only watching movies from my childhood,

321
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,288
Speaker 1: like any movie that is significant for my

322
00:10:38,328 --> 00:10:41,215
Speaker 1: childhood Also, this is a great one that

323
00:10:41,256 --> 00:10:42,802
Speaker 1: we've been doing, and like it's weird,

324
00:10:42,822 --> 00:10:45,006
Speaker 1: because people now know I'm doing this, so

325
00:10:45,026 --> 00:10:46,670
Speaker 1: they're like reaching out to me, being like,

326
00:10:46,770 --> 00:10:48,012
Speaker 1: oh, I just thought of this movie, you

327
00:10:48,032 --> 00:10:48,914
Speaker 1: should watch this movie.

328
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,527
Speaker 1: Or we're only listening to songs from, like

329
00:10:51,667 --> 00:10:52,891
Speaker 1: middle school dances.

330
00:10:54,241 --> 00:10:57,531
Speaker 1: You know, I've been pretty sick, right.

331
00:10:57,660 --> 00:11:00,287
Speaker 1: So I have been very sick digestively.

332
00:11:00,327 --> 00:11:01,129
Speaker 1: For a lot of my life.

333
00:11:02,031 --> 00:11:03,542
Speaker 1: I've been gluten free, I've been dairy free.

334
00:11:03,643 --> 00:11:05,610
Speaker 1: I've been dairy free I hate it 13 years now

335
00:11:06,204 --> 00:11:08,100
Speaker 1: I decided I'm going to eat gluten.

336
00:11:08,622 --> 00:11:10,263
Speaker 1: I'm just going to do it, because if that

337
00:11:10,364 --> 00:11:12,734
Speaker 1: kid could do it and I can get in touch with

338
00:11:12,774 --> 00:11:14,566
Speaker 1: his consciousness, I can do this.

339
00:11:14,821 --> 00:11:16,664
Speaker 1: So if I dress like him, if I listen to his

340
00:11:16,704 --> 00:11:18,587
Speaker 1: music, I'm going to do it.

341
00:11:19,062 --> 00:11:20,968
Speaker 1: And so I'm proud to say we were just in New

342
00:11:21,008 --> 00:11:22,180
Speaker 1: York for the musical this weekend.

343
00:11:22,902 --> 00:11:24,526
Speaker 1: I ate some fucking New York pizza.

344
00:11:25,128 --> 00:11:26,110
Speaker 1: It was amazing.

345
00:11:30,020 --> 00:11:30,985
Speaker 1: And I just came home and I bought like

346
00:11:31,005 --> 00:11:33,003
Speaker 1: Nutter, butter, cheez-its, all this stuff I

347
00:11:33,023 --> 00:11:34,308
Speaker 1: haven't had for so long.

348
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,526
Speaker 1: Got a little bit sick from that, but that's

349
00:11:36,567 --> 00:11:40,190
Speaker 1: all right, and so that's why I'm dissolving.

350
00:11:41,101 --> 00:11:41,644
Speaker 2: I don't know what.

351
00:11:41,704 --> 00:11:42,266
Speaker 2: I like it.

352
00:11:42,380 --> 00:11:45,308
Speaker 2: You came off the wagon in style as well.

353
00:11:45,348 --> 00:11:46,781
Speaker 2: You're like fuck it, I'm going.

354
00:11:46,801 --> 00:11:48,505
Speaker 2: If I'm gonna get sick, I'm gonna make sure

355
00:11:48,565 --> 00:11:49,126
Speaker 2: it's worth it.

356
00:11:49,487 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: You know, you're just going and that's the

357
00:11:51,660 --> 00:11:52,203
Speaker 2: best way.

358
00:11:52,705 --> 00:11:53,307
Speaker 2: I love that.

359
00:11:53,990 --> 00:11:55,536
Speaker 2: I love the kind of spiritual stuff you've

360
00:11:55,556 --> 00:11:55,918
Speaker 2: been doing.

361
00:11:55,938 --> 00:11:57,345
Speaker 2: We, my friend, we're talking about this the

362
00:11:57,365 --> 00:11:57,667
Speaker 2: other day.

363
00:11:57,688 --> 00:11:59,258
Speaker 2: They're actually about like doing like kind

364
00:11:59,278 --> 00:12:00,201
Speaker 2: of mushrooms and stuff.

365
00:12:00,542 --> 00:12:02,867
Speaker 2: Because I've been down, try, I'm tempted to

366
00:12:02,927 --> 00:12:05,031
Speaker 2: get into it, because everyone says, do a

367
00:12:05,051 --> 00:12:06,501
Speaker 2: bit of mushrooms and all that sort of stuff.

368
00:12:06,541 --> 00:12:07,684
Speaker 2: It really opens your mind.

369
00:12:07,744 --> 00:12:10,151
Speaker 2: It kind of opens up like a whole different

370
00:12:10,191 --> 00:12:11,966
Speaker 2: sort of part of your brain and you start to

371
00:12:12,147 --> 00:12:14,137
Speaker 2: see things different and you start to kind

372
00:12:14,157 --> 00:12:15,121
Speaker 2: of act a little bit different.

373
00:12:15,141 --> 00:12:16,264
Speaker 2: And I'm tempted to do it.

374
00:12:16,826 --> 00:12:18,290
Speaker 2: But I don't know whether me and him should

375
00:12:18,330 --> 00:12:20,042
Speaker 2: do it, because me and him together are

376
00:12:20,082 --> 00:12:21,325
Speaker 2: complete fucking nightmares.

377
00:12:22,307 --> 00:12:23,850
Speaker 2: It's going to be like it's either going to

378
00:12:24,130 --> 00:12:25,814
Speaker 2: really, really well and we're going to be

379
00:12:25,860 --> 00:12:27,647
Speaker 2: enlightened, or we're going to freak the

380
00:12:27,727 --> 00:12:29,727
Speaker 2: fuck out and start smashing the place up.

381
00:12:30,350 --> 00:13:02,136
Speaker 2: There's no gray area, no-transcript of

382
00:13:02,557 --> 00:13:04,422
Speaker 2: really kind of I see heads up and holding

383
00:13:04,462 --> 00:13:06,727
Speaker 2: it in and you're just now going fuck it,

384
00:13:06,747 --> 00:13:08,919
Speaker 2: let's just, let's just let let it release

385
00:13:08,959 --> 00:13:10,142
Speaker 2: the kraken, so to speak.

386
00:13:10,162 --> 00:13:12,448
Speaker 1: You know, oh yeah, I mean I just feel like

387
00:13:12,956 --> 00:13:14,681
Speaker 1: I'm really fortunate that you know I've got

388
00:13:14,721 --> 00:13:16,565
Speaker 1: enough clients right now that can kind of

389
00:13:16,586 --> 00:13:17,267
Speaker 1: keep me sustained.

390
00:13:17,355 --> 00:13:18,781
Speaker 1: I mean, could always use more, but like

391
00:13:18,942 --> 00:13:21,121
Speaker 1: enough, like I'm not really I've kind of

392
00:13:21,161 --> 00:13:22,506
Speaker 1: taken myself off social media.

393
00:13:22,635 --> 00:13:26,284
Speaker 1: I've taken and you've seen like I I'm a

394
00:13:26,304 --> 00:13:27,895
Speaker 1: person who really likes to go for it, so

395
00:13:27,916 --> 00:13:29,659
Speaker 1: like I go deep into everything.

396
00:13:29,819 --> 00:13:31,703
Speaker 1: So you know, I went through my period where

397
00:13:31,723 --> 00:13:34,047
Speaker 1: I was posting my ass all over social media

398
00:13:34,107 --> 00:13:35,730
Speaker 1: and taking naked photos, you know.

399
00:13:36,311 --> 00:13:38,135
Speaker 2: Right, you know that.

400
00:13:38,155 --> 00:13:39,905
Speaker 2: Right, you commented on it.

401
00:13:40,617 --> 00:13:41,902
Speaker 2: I commented as soon as it opened my

402
00:13:41,922 --> 00:13:42,363
Speaker 2: Instagram.

403
00:13:42,855 --> 00:13:44,402
Speaker 2: There's you lying there with your bare ass

404
00:13:44,482 --> 00:13:46,581
Speaker 2: out and I was like mate, this is not what I

405
00:13:46,601 --> 00:13:47,905
Speaker 2: want to see first thing in the morning.

406
00:13:48,998 --> 00:13:50,495
Speaker 1: Well, hey, I mean, some people might no,

407
00:13:50,535 --> 00:13:53,359
Speaker 1: I'm kidding, but no, what really this was

408
00:13:53,439 --> 00:13:55,823
Speaker 1: about actually me is after that article

409
00:13:55,863 --> 00:14:00,129
Speaker 1: came out, I, you know people made comments

410
00:14:00,149 --> 00:14:02,297
Speaker 1: about my body after that, and I had never

411
00:14:02,417 --> 00:14:05,041
Speaker 1: had that before because I didn't realize

412
00:14:05,101 --> 00:14:08,086
Speaker 1: that in general we don't really first of

413
00:14:08,106 --> 00:14:09,889
Speaker 1: all objectify men to be extensive women at

414
00:14:10,009 --> 00:14:12,659
Speaker 1: all, of course, and I had never been used

415
00:14:12,699 --> 00:14:13,943
Speaker 1: to like so.

416
00:14:13,963 --> 00:14:15,716
Speaker 1: At first it creeped me out and then I

417
00:14:15,736 --> 00:14:17,276
Speaker 1: realized, oh, this is internalized

418
00:14:17,316 --> 00:14:19,943
Speaker 1: homophobia, like I'm, you know, basically

419
00:14:20,043 --> 00:14:22,276
Speaker 1: telling people whereas I might, you know,

420
00:14:22,577 --> 00:14:24,464
Speaker 1: look at a woman that I find attractive and

421
00:14:24,585 --> 00:14:25,749
Speaker 1: thinks certain thoughts.

422
00:14:26,131 --> 00:14:27,696
Speaker 1: I'm now realizing I don't like being on the

423
00:14:27,736 --> 00:14:29,401
Speaker 1: receiving end of that, and this is good

424
00:14:29,461 --> 00:14:30,564
Speaker 1: Talk about spiritual shit.

425
00:14:30,865 --> 00:14:32,599
Speaker 1: I've got to reckon with all my stuff, right,

426
00:14:33,141 --> 00:14:35,850
Speaker 1: and so from that I went through years where

427
00:14:35,890 --> 00:14:38,518
Speaker 1: I felt really awkward about my body, and

428
00:14:38,558 --> 00:14:40,042
Speaker 1: then I thought you know what?

429
00:14:40,122 --> 00:14:41,285
Speaker 1: I want to take this the other way.

430
00:14:41,766 --> 00:14:44,539
Speaker 1: I want to go get boudoir photos done and I

431
00:14:44,579 --> 00:14:47,184
Speaker 1: want to feel sexy, because I did not know

432
00:14:47,565 --> 00:14:50,557
Speaker 1: that a man's ass could be sexy, right.

433
00:14:50,677 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: I thought a man's ass was like hairy.

434
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,268
Speaker 1: I'm like well, right, and that's why, you

435
00:14:55,308 --> 00:14:58,857
Speaker 1: know, and as I'm sitting here trying to

436
00:14:58,877 --> 00:14:59,679
Speaker 1: explore my relationship with my husband.

437
00:14:59,699 --> 00:15:00,842
Speaker 1: You know, sexualizing him more.

438
00:15:01,223 --> 00:15:03,797
Speaker 1: I am exploring all of this and I will admit

439
00:15:03,937 --> 00:15:06,483
Speaker 1: my if you've seen my ass online, it is not

440
00:15:06,763 --> 00:15:09,068
Speaker 1: actually as hairless as it looks there.

441
00:15:09,515 --> 00:15:11,999
Speaker 1: I still had shame with the hair, so I

442
00:15:12,039 --> 00:15:12,580
Speaker 1: removed it.

443
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,645
Speaker 1: Okay For those photos, but no, but it took

444
00:15:15,746 --> 00:15:18,535
Speaker 1: me on a journey of really going there and

445
00:15:18,556 --> 00:15:20,242
Speaker 1: just letting myself go all the way there

446
00:15:20,315 --> 00:15:21,897
Speaker 1: and just be like you know what People are

447
00:15:21,917 --> 00:15:23,197
Speaker 1: going to think shit, people are going to

448
00:15:23,217 --> 00:15:25,501
Speaker 1: talk about me and like, what do I have to

449
00:15:25,541 --> 00:15:25,863
Speaker 1: prove?

450
00:15:25,995 --> 00:15:28,250
Speaker 1: And I think that's been the biggest piece

451
00:15:28,290 --> 00:15:31,041
Speaker 1: of this dissolution is realizing how much I

452
00:15:31,121 --> 00:15:33,020
Speaker 1: felt like I had something to prove and

453
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,796
Speaker 1: therefore was still like guarding from

454
00:15:34,836 --> 00:15:37,118
Speaker 1: vulnerable parts of myself something to

455
00:15:37,138 --> 00:15:38,442
Speaker 1: prove and therefore was still like guarding

456
00:15:38,462 --> 00:15:39,185
Speaker 1: from vulnerable parts of myself.

457
00:15:39,506 --> 00:15:40,448
Speaker 2: That makes sense, isn't it?

458
00:15:40,468 --> 00:15:41,371
Speaker 2: I can get that, I get to.

459
00:15:41,391 --> 00:15:42,494
Speaker 2: It must be a lot of like I mentioned before,

460
00:15:42,515 --> 00:15:44,904
Speaker 2: a lot of pent-up stuff releasing, and yeah,

461
00:15:44,924 --> 00:15:45,827
Speaker 2: I mean, fuck it.

462
00:15:45,928 --> 00:15:46,209
Speaker 2: Why?

463
00:15:46,229 --> 00:15:47,674
Speaker 2: Why think about all that sort of stuff?

464
00:15:47,695 --> 00:15:49,602
Speaker 2: Just let it go, let it loosen, do what you

465
00:15:49,622 --> 00:15:50,043
Speaker 2: want to do.

466
00:15:50,645 --> 00:15:52,633
Speaker 2: You know, and if you want to get fucked up

467
00:15:52,793 --> 00:15:54,799
Speaker 2: on mushrooms and weeds and take pictures

468
00:15:54,859 --> 00:15:56,563
Speaker 2: and make yourself feel comfortable, fucking

469
00:15:56,603 --> 00:15:56,823
Speaker 2: do it.

470
00:15:57,084 --> 00:15:58,588
Speaker 2: A lot of people in this world, I think, are

471
00:15:58,648 --> 00:16:01,615
Speaker 2: really concerned about what other people

472
00:16:01,755 --> 00:16:03,901
Speaker 2: think you know and what other people have

473
00:16:03,921 --> 00:16:04,482
Speaker 2: got to say.

474
00:16:04,503 --> 00:16:06,067
Speaker 2: Especially, we're in this sort of like kind

475
00:16:06,107 --> 00:16:07,458
Speaker 2: of social media world.

476
00:16:07,498 --> 00:16:10,224
Speaker 2: Now, you know and you look at it, it's all

477
00:16:10,244 --> 00:16:11,768
Speaker 2: fucking fake at the end of the day.

478
00:16:11,808 --> 00:16:13,399
Speaker 2: You know all these people sitting there

479
00:16:13,439 --> 00:16:15,104
Speaker 2: posing and going I'm having such a great

480
00:16:15,144 --> 00:16:16,596
Speaker 2: day little do they know.

481
00:16:16,636 --> 00:16:18,301
Speaker 2: But when they switch that camera off,

482
00:16:18,321 --> 00:16:20,246
Speaker 2: they're going back home and living in their

483
00:16:20,295 --> 00:16:21,738
Speaker 2: fucking one bedroom apartment.

484
00:16:22,119 --> 00:16:23,583
Speaker 2: It's just completely fake.

485
00:16:23,603 --> 00:16:24,585
Speaker 2: So you don't know.

486
00:16:24,786 --> 00:16:26,196
Speaker 2: I always take these sort of things with a

487
00:16:26,216 --> 00:16:26,818
Speaker 2: pinch of salt.

488
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,446
Speaker 2: On all fairness, I think, um, not to the

489
00:16:30,486 --> 00:16:30,767
Speaker 2: extreme.

490
00:16:30,787 --> 00:16:32,518
Speaker 2: They obviously you went to went through

491
00:16:32,558 --> 00:16:34,141
Speaker 2: something similar previously as well, you

492
00:16:34,161 --> 00:16:36,145
Speaker 2: know, and it's just getting to that stage.

493
00:16:36,446 --> 00:16:38,550
Speaker 2: It's that sort of like epiphany moment, you

494
00:16:38,570 --> 00:16:40,374
Speaker 2: know, and it's it comes out of nowhere,

495
00:16:40,414 --> 00:16:42,538
Speaker 2: it's just a penny drops and all of a sudden

496
00:16:42,559 --> 00:16:42,919
Speaker 2: you're going.

497
00:16:42,959 --> 00:16:43,601
Speaker 2: What am I doing?

498
00:16:43,781 --> 00:16:44,643
Speaker 2: Why am I doing this?

499
00:16:45,285 --> 00:16:47,178
Speaker 2: What is the point of being all this?

500
00:16:47,198 --> 00:16:49,128
Speaker 2: You know, I think I started it when I first

501
00:16:49,148 --> 00:16:51,717
Speaker 2: started the podcast, to be honest, and, um,

502
00:16:52,499 --> 00:16:53,541
Speaker 2: I was like getting a little bit more

503
00:16:53,581 --> 00:16:54,062
Speaker 2: attention.

504
00:16:55,044 --> 00:16:57,628
Speaker 2: Uh, people had to look great and I have to

505
00:16:57,689 --> 00:16:59,358
Speaker 2: show off to my friends and make sure that,

506
00:16:59,378 --> 00:17:01,964
Speaker 2: oh, what I'm doing is, uh, is really

507
00:17:01,984 --> 00:17:02,485
Speaker 2: successful.

508
00:17:02,526 --> 00:17:03,997
Speaker 2: Look at me, it's not just something to

509
00:17:04,037 --> 00:17:04,659
Speaker 2: laugh about.

510
00:17:05,161 --> 00:17:07,850
Speaker 2: And I got really, really into it, and so

511
00:17:07,870 --> 00:17:09,756
Speaker 2: much so into it that it was actually taken

512
00:17:09,896 --> 00:17:11,700
Speaker 2: over and everything that I was doing was

513
00:17:11,841 --> 00:17:12,602
Speaker 2: based on that.

514
00:17:12,883 --> 00:17:19,116
Speaker 2: I wasn't living my normal life based on

515
00:17:19,136 --> 00:17:19,959
Speaker 2: that and wasn't living my normal life and,

516
00:17:19,979 --> 00:17:20,782
Speaker 2: uh, it when that stopped and that sort of,

517
00:17:20,802 --> 00:17:21,826
Speaker 2: I think that's probably why I took a long

518
00:17:21,866 --> 00:17:23,612
Speaker 2: time off is just to get away from it and

519
00:17:23,653 --> 00:17:25,019
Speaker 2: just take a step back and go right.

520
00:17:25,441 --> 00:17:26,848
Speaker 2: If I want to get back into, I want to get

521
00:17:26,868 --> 00:17:28,796
Speaker 2: back into it for the right reasons, not

522
00:17:28,836 --> 00:17:31,622
Speaker 2: just for the reason of having people

523
00:17:31,802 --> 00:17:33,626
Speaker 2: attention, attention, attention, because

524
00:17:33,887 --> 00:17:34,468
Speaker 2: that's not it.

525
00:17:34,648 --> 00:17:36,278
Speaker 2: It's if you do it because you love it, and

526
00:17:36,318 --> 00:17:37,501
Speaker 2: if you love it, just go for it.

527
00:17:37,802 --> 00:17:39,045
Speaker 2: And that's where we are now, and I think

528
00:17:39,105 --> 00:17:41,257
Speaker 2: I'm in a really better place as a creator,

529
00:17:41,297 --> 00:17:44,825
Speaker 2: as a podcaster and as uh, in a person more

530
00:17:44,905 --> 00:17:45,407
Speaker 2: anything else.

531
00:17:45,607 --> 00:17:49,323
Speaker 1: It's really cool yeah, I love you know.

532
00:17:49,343 --> 00:17:51,127
Speaker 1: It reminds me a lot of what I've been

533
00:17:51,167 --> 00:17:52,671
Speaker 1: working on is um.

534
00:17:53,112 --> 00:17:54,515
Speaker 1: So I went to a therapist.

535
00:17:54,736 --> 00:17:57,189
Speaker 1: It was not very good for me, but ultimately

536
00:17:57,249 --> 00:18:01,020
Speaker 1: it was good I had to really he kind of went

537
00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:03,345
Speaker 1: off on me about a few things, told me I

538
00:18:03,365 --> 00:18:05,008
Speaker 1: have a terrible relationship, lots of

539
00:18:05,028 --> 00:18:06,238
Speaker 1: things that are probably not appropriate

540
00:18:06,258 --> 00:18:07,402
Speaker 1: for a therapist, yeah, yeah.

541
00:18:07,824 --> 00:18:11,015
Speaker 1: But what was great about it is he really

542
00:18:11,075 --> 00:18:12,179
Speaker 1: made me question myself and doubt myself a

543
00:18:12,199 --> 00:18:12,259
Speaker 1: lot.

544
00:18:12,279 --> 00:18:13,042
Speaker 1: And after I broke up with him, after I

545
00:18:13,062 --> 00:18:13,864
Speaker 1: ended our relationship, I didn't realize

546
00:18:13,884 --> 00:18:14,607
Speaker 1: that this was related until recently

547
00:18:14,627 --> 00:18:15,530
Speaker 1: because this was about a myself and doubt

548
00:18:15,550 --> 00:18:15,790
Speaker 1: myself a lot.

549
00:18:15,811 --> 00:18:16,653
Speaker 1: And after I broke up with him, after I

550
00:18:16,673 --> 00:18:18,438
Speaker 1: ended our relationship, I didn't realize

551
00:18:18,458 --> 00:18:20,123
Speaker 1: that this was related until recently

552
00:18:20,143 --> 00:18:21,206
Speaker 1: because this was about a year ago.

553
00:18:21,636 --> 00:18:24,324
Speaker 1: But about a week or two after I was at a

554
00:18:24,364 --> 00:18:27,734
Speaker 1: museum, we went to this fancy event at the

555
00:18:27,754 --> 00:18:30,180
Speaker 1: Fine Arts Museum here in Boston and really

556
00:18:30,220 --> 00:18:32,586
Speaker 1: it's called Art in Bloom and so it's

557
00:18:32,646 --> 00:18:33,328
Speaker 1: actually phenomenal.

558
00:18:33,395 --> 00:18:34,177
Speaker 1: This is a good story.

559
00:18:34,778 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: The event itself is cool.

560
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,608
Speaker 1: Like they make floral depictions of some of

561
00:18:39,628 --> 00:18:41,961
Speaker 1: the pieces so different, like garden clubs,

562
00:18:42,001 --> 00:18:44,338
Speaker 1: horticultural societies, so you can imagine

563
00:18:44,378 --> 00:18:46,144
Speaker 1: this is like the rich of the rich, like

564
00:18:46,284 --> 00:18:47,448
Speaker 1: super pretentious event.

565
00:18:47,528 --> 00:18:50,262
Speaker 1: Right, like everything is private equity

566
00:18:50,322 --> 00:18:52,107
Speaker 1: firms funding these horticultural events.

567
00:18:52,496 --> 00:18:55,323
Speaker 1: But because we pay the whopping $140 a year

568
00:18:55,403 --> 00:18:57,187
Speaker 1: to be members, which just means we go like

569
00:18:57,235 --> 00:18:59,220
Speaker 1: two or three times a year, we get invited

570
00:18:59,240 --> 00:18:59,922
Speaker 1: to this thing, right?

571
00:18:59,942 --> 00:19:02,016
Speaker 1: So we are not at this class level, but

572
00:19:02,337 --> 00:19:04,604
Speaker 1: we're there and I'm walking around and the

573
00:19:04,644 --> 00:19:07,974
Speaker 1: conversations were gold, like this one

574
00:19:08,034 --> 00:19:10,180
Speaker 1: woman looked at the floral event, turned to

575
00:19:10,220 --> 00:19:12,465
Speaker 1: her friends and said, oh, now we know what

576
00:19:12,526 --> 00:19:14,098
Speaker 1: Natalie's doing instead of tennis on

577
00:19:14,118 --> 00:19:14,761
Speaker 1: Thursdays.

578
00:19:15,022 --> 00:19:17,210
Speaker 1: And I was like, yes, guys, what I wanted to

579
00:19:17,270 --> 00:19:17,511
Speaker 1: hear.

580
00:19:17,531 --> 00:19:18,495
Speaker 1: This is amazing.

581
00:19:18,756 --> 00:19:20,944
Speaker 1: It's like watching Gossip Girl or something.

582
00:19:21,455 --> 00:19:24,262
Speaker 1: And so, anyway, I'm at this event and I see

583
00:19:24,282 --> 00:19:25,866
Speaker 1: and I am high because we all know I'm doing

584
00:19:25,886 --> 00:19:28,299
Speaker 1: a lot of cannabis now and I see this woman

585
00:19:28,599 --> 00:19:31,325
Speaker 1: who is dressed exactly like Catherine

586
00:19:31,365 --> 00:19:38,136
Speaker 1: O'Hara from Beetlejuice and she's with a

587
00:19:38,157 --> 00:19:39,060
Speaker 1: gay art dealer who is dressed exactly like

588
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:39,963
Speaker 1: the art dealer from Beetlejuice and she's

589
00:19:39,983 --> 00:19:40,806
Speaker 1: with a gay art dealer who is dressed

590
00:19:40,826 --> 00:19:41,508
Speaker 1: exactly like the art dealer from

591
00:19:41,528 --> 00:19:41,749
Speaker 1: Beetlejuice.

592
00:19:41,769 --> 00:19:42,672
Speaker 1: And I'm sitting there and I turn to Garrett

593
00:19:42,692 --> 00:19:43,575
Speaker 1: and I say are we all just full of shit?

594
00:19:43,595 --> 00:19:45,042
Speaker 1: And he's like, yeah, I'm pretty sure we are.

595
00:19:45,344 --> 00:19:47,092
Speaker 1: And I was like, no, really like are we all

596
00:19:47,152 --> 00:19:49,239
Speaker 1: just playing characters we've seen?

597
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,304
Speaker 1: Like, is anything real?

598
00:19:51,786 --> 00:19:54,332
Speaker 1: And I'm walking and I'm like, oh, I get it

599
00:19:54,773 --> 00:19:56,057
Speaker 1: like super rich people.

600
00:19:56,177 --> 00:19:58,362
Speaker 1: They want an original, because an original

601
00:19:58,402 --> 00:20:00,587
Speaker 1: is so rare, because everything is an

602
00:20:00,627 --> 00:20:02,922
Speaker 1: imitation, everything is a copy of a copy

603
00:20:03,496 --> 00:20:05,095
Speaker 1: Like and that was a moment.

604
00:20:05,235 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 1: It didn't click for me at the time, but I

605
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:07,782
Speaker 1: realized later.

606
00:20:07,922 --> 00:20:10,758
Speaker 1: My therapist, invalidating me, made me

607
00:20:10,838 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 1: realize I exist and like this deep part of

608
00:20:13,919 --> 00:20:16,045
Speaker 1: me from within was like, no, fuck you, I'm

609
00:20:16,065 --> 00:20:16,526
Speaker 1: going to fight.

610
00:20:28,420 --> 00:20:31,083
Speaker 1: I'm not an identity, I'm not like a box,

611
00:20:31,203 --> 00:20:32,384
Speaker 1: I'm not a character.

612
00:20:32,404 --> 00:20:35,328
Speaker 1: There's actually a Like no, all of these

613
00:20:35,348 --> 00:20:37,931
Speaker 1: versions is the same me, if there's a me

614
00:20:38,011 --> 00:20:38,691
Speaker 1: underneath there.

615
00:20:39,055 --> 00:20:40,500
Speaker 1: And yeah, I've played with parts of myself

616
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,438
Speaker 1: and I've played with characters, but I

617
00:20:42,539 --> 00:20:43,101
Speaker 1: exist.

618
00:20:43,596 --> 00:20:45,822
Speaker 1: And I know that sounds like really simple

619
00:20:46,002 --> 00:20:48,237
Speaker 1: and esoteric at the same time, but I don't

620
00:20:48,277 --> 00:20:50,545
Speaker 1: think I knew I existed until that moment

621
00:20:51,016 --> 00:20:52,542
Speaker 1: and that's been a big part of it has been

622
00:20:52,562 --> 00:21:01,863
Speaker 1: like, oh, I exist.

623
00:21:01,812 --> 00:21:02,086
Speaker 1: Big part of it has been like, oh, I exist.

624
00:21:02,035 --> 00:21:02,163
Speaker 1: So who?

625
00:21:02,111 --> 00:21:02,353
Speaker 1: Who am I trying to prove?

626
00:21:02,301 --> 00:21:03,248
Speaker 1: Like I want to wear shirts that say, uh,

627
00:21:03,196 --> 00:21:03,822
Speaker 1: show me your tits.

628
00:21:03,770 --> 00:21:04,609
Speaker 1: I know I'm gonna get cancelled for this.

629
00:21:04,557 --> 00:21:05,302
Speaker 1: I think it's hilarious.

630
00:21:05,250 --> 00:21:06,112
Speaker 1: All these little birds with tits.

631
00:21:06,060 --> 00:21:06,513
Speaker 1: I want I drop it.

632
00:21:06,462 --> 00:21:07,036
Speaker 1: This is the real me.

633
00:21:06,984 --> 00:21:09,609
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to hide myself anymore.

634
00:21:09,909 --> 00:21:10,670
Speaker 2: I mean, it takes a lot.

635
00:21:10,710 --> 00:21:13,753
Speaker 2: I mean the it to get to that sort of stage

636
00:21:13,794 --> 00:21:15,696
Speaker 2: is, is is a great sort of milestone for

637
00:21:15,716 --> 00:21:17,237
Speaker 2: anyone to be fair and it's.

638
00:21:17,457 --> 00:21:18,618
Speaker 2: I tell you what you found out that, uh, to

639
00:21:18,638 --> 00:21:19,599
Speaker 2: get to that sort of stage is a great sort

640
00:21:19,619 --> 00:21:20,861
Speaker 2: of milestone for anyone to be fair.

641
00:21:20,881 --> 00:21:22,002
Speaker 2: And I tell you what you found out that to

642
00:21:22,862 --> 00:21:24,044
Speaker 2: get to that stage, you found out who you

643
00:21:24,064 --> 00:21:24,404
Speaker 2: are, who you are.

644
00:21:24,424 --> 00:21:25,625
Speaker 2: And the most funniest event ever as well,

645
00:21:25,745 --> 00:21:27,106
Speaker 2: when you get all these like pretentious

646
00:21:27,146 --> 00:21:29,168
Speaker 2: wankers in front of you, you know, and it's

647
00:21:29,208 --> 00:21:30,370
Speaker 2: like, how do the other half live?

648
00:21:30,770 --> 00:21:32,552
Speaker 2: And you're just like, is this real life?

649
00:21:36,755 --> 00:21:37,363
Speaker 2: You know, I'd be walking in there If I was

650
00:21:37,288 --> 00:21:37,389
Speaker 2: me.

651
00:21:37,315 --> 00:21:37,940
Speaker 2: I'd be walking in there going what the hell

652
00:21:37,865 --> 00:21:38,750
Speaker 2: have I just walked into some sort of like

653
00:21:38,910 --> 00:21:41,218
Speaker 2: in a Black Mirror episode and it's just all

654
00:21:41,238 --> 00:21:42,322
Speaker 2: fucked up and weird.

655
00:21:42,643 --> 00:21:43,465
Speaker 2: You're like what?

656
00:21:43,955 --> 00:21:45,937
Speaker 2: So, yeah, I think that was the wonder.

657
00:21:45,977 --> 00:21:47,764
Speaker 2: You felt like that actually came out.

658
00:21:48,135 --> 00:21:51,156
Speaker 1: It's like holy shit, it was perfect.

659
00:21:51,236 --> 00:21:53,138
Speaker 1: And like I started like I'm, you know, at

660
00:21:53,158 --> 00:21:54,819
Speaker 1: these events, whether it's you know for

661
00:21:54,859 --> 00:21:56,180
Speaker 1: this or the musical or something.

662
00:21:56,581 --> 00:21:58,302
Speaker 1: And I'm talking to people and I've realized

663
00:21:58,562 --> 00:22:00,544
Speaker 1: the more privilege you have, the more you

664
00:22:00,584 --> 00:22:02,806
Speaker 1: know wealth you have, there's even more

665
00:22:02,846 --> 00:22:04,247
Speaker 1: character, right, there's more pressure.

666
00:22:04,307 --> 00:22:05,969
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at all this and I'm like no,

667
00:22:06,389 --> 00:22:07,070
Speaker 1: everybody's real.

668
00:22:07,110 --> 00:22:09,111
Speaker 1: I'm not out here saying anybody's not real.

669
00:22:09,412 --> 00:22:11,476
Speaker 1: I look people in the eyes, I talk to them.

670
00:22:11,496 --> 00:22:11,917
Speaker 1: There's of there.

671
00:22:12,157 --> 00:22:13,940
Speaker 1: But there's all this pressure on top of it

672
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,584
Speaker 1: and I realized like I start getting curious.

673
00:22:16,624 --> 00:22:18,787
Speaker 1: Like what was your favorite snack in middle

674
00:22:18,808 --> 00:22:19,088
Speaker 1: school?

675
00:22:19,348 --> 00:22:21,097
Speaker 1: You know, what did you listen to at dances?

676
00:22:21,398 --> 00:22:23,807
Speaker 1: Because the truth is like, when we're young,

677
00:22:24,128 --> 00:22:25,835
Speaker 1: we're all more similar and then we divert

678
00:22:26,015 --> 00:22:26,697
Speaker 1: as we get older.

679
00:22:27,138 --> 00:22:30,004
Speaker 1: And so what has been so fun for me is

680
00:22:30,284 --> 00:22:32,309
Speaker 1: realizing how to like tear down the

681
00:22:32,355 --> 00:22:32,857
Speaker 1: retention.

682
00:22:33,159 --> 00:22:34,304
Speaker 1: You know, I was out with friends the other

683
00:22:34,324 --> 00:22:37,076
Speaker 1: day and like one of their friends, or

684
00:22:37,096 --> 00:22:38,780
Speaker 1: friends of a friend, is getting really into

685
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,765
Speaker 1: wine and you know like you can really go

686
00:22:40,805 --> 00:22:43,319
Speaker 1: far with that and I know nothing about wine,

687
00:22:43,419 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 1: nothing.

688
00:22:44,341 --> 00:22:47,127
Speaker 1: And so, um, he's telling me about it, my

689
00:22:47,187 --> 00:22:49,018
Speaker 1: friend like how his friends into it, and I

690
00:22:49,078 --> 00:22:51,043
Speaker 1: said, honestly, I still think like a 20

691
00:22:51,063 --> 00:22:52,736
Speaker 1: doll bottle is pretty nice and he's like no,

692
00:22:52,776 --> 00:22:53,077
Speaker 1: me too.

693
00:22:53,277 --> 00:22:55,343
Speaker 1: But like, and it was just great because it

694
00:22:55,363 --> 00:22:56,285
Speaker 1: like tore down.

695
00:22:56,305 --> 00:22:58,659
Speaker 1: I was like I have the wine palette of a 22

696
00:22:58,699 --> 00:23:00,163
Speaker 1: year old and I do not care.

697
00:23:00,503 --> 00:23:03,650
Speaker 1: That is okay for me, and so it's just been

698
00:23:03,735 --> 00:23:06,721
Speaker 1: really fun to just be honest about, like

699
00:23:07,101 --> 00:23:09,266
Speaker 1: not trying to be someone or even.

700
00:23:09,807 --> 00:23:12,257
Speaker 1: I think I was so lost in this character of

701
00:23:12,318 --> 00:23:13,781
Speaker 1: who I thought I had to be and there was

702
00:23:13,801 --> 00:23:16,147
Speaker 1: still authenticity throughout, but I felt

703
00:23:16,255 --> 00:23:18,962
Speaker 1: like this pressure or this way of being,

704
00:23:19,022 --> 00:23:20,766
Speaker 1: and now I'm just like I don't give a fuck.

705
00:23:20,806 --> 00:23:22,842
Speaker 1: If my friends don't like what I'm dressing

706
00:23:22,882 --> 00:23:24,570
Speaker 1: like, or don't like what I'm wearing or how

707
00:23:24,751 --> 00:23:26,618
Speaker 1: honest I'm being, then they're probably not

708
00:23:26,638 --> 00:23:27,701
Speaker 1: my friends and that's okay.

709
00:23:27,821 --> 00:23:29,606
Speaker 1: Like they can go do what they want, but I

710
00:23:29,915 --> 00:23:30,296
Speaker 1: want to be.

711
00:23:30,336 --> 00:23:33,202
Speaker 1: I'm so tired and my body has been sick.

712
00:23:33,442 --> 00:23:35,145
Speaker 1: Like I'm gonna get sick if I'm not me, so I

713
00:23:35,165 --> 00:23:35,807
Speaker 1: just want to be me.

714
00:23:36,508 --> 00:23:37,658
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, you don't want to get

715
00:23:37,678 --> 00:23:38,483
Speaker 2: yourself back in there.

716
00:23:38,495 --> 00:23:39,619
Speaker 2: It's obviously causing an effect to

717
00:23:39,639 --> 00:23:41,857
Speaker 2: yourself health-wise, yeah, so it's

718
00:23:41,977 --> 00:23:43,783
Speaker 2: probably the best thing that you can do.

719
00:23:43,864 --> 00:23:45,498
Speaker 2: Sort of thing have you done?

720
00:23:45,538 --> 00:23:46,696
Speaker 2: I was going to ask as well you know how

721
00:23:46,716 --> 00:23:49,103
Speaker 2: you're doing the kind of spiritualist thing

722
00:23:49,123 --> 00:23:49,986
Speaker 2: and all that sort of stuff.

723
00:23:57,975 --> 00:23:58,656
Speaker 2: Have you tried, tried to do?

724
00:23:58,676 --> 00:23:59,658
Speaker 2: That was it, the, the DMT stuff, what you

725
00:23:59,678 --> 00:24:00,940
Speaker 2: got, the I can't remember.

726
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,182
Speaker 2: It's like you go to like the retreats and

727
00:24:02,202 --> 00:24:02,863
Speaker 2: all that's it, yeah.

728
00:24:03,184 --> 00:24:04,566
Speaker 1: I haven't, you know.

729
00:24:04,686 --> 00:24:06,810
Speaker 1: I mean, I hear amazing things about it.

730
00:24:06,850 --> 00:24:08,378
Speaker 1: I know people go on retreats and stuff.

731
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,466
Speaker 1: For me I'm kind of like I want to do things

732
00:24:11,526 --> 00:24:14,643
Speaker 1: my way and so for me I think it is so fun

733
00:24:15,064 --> 00:24:17,734

759
00:25:06,216 --> 00:25:06,336
Speaker 1: that.

760
00:25:06,376 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: It's just me, right, it gets to include

761
00:25:07,980 --> 00:25:10,206
Speaker 1: this like raunchiness and this playfulness,

762
00:25:10,507 --> 00:25:12,519
Speaker 1: and it's just me in my bed and I put on an

763
00:25:12,719 --> 00:25:14,883
Speaker 1: eye mask, so I'm'm like in a cave right,

764
00:25:14,903 --> 00:25:17,348
Speaker 1: like I'm under covers in an eye mask seven

765
00:25:17,488 --> 00:25:18,209
Speaker 1: hours straight.

766
00:25:18,329 --> 00:25:20,951
Speaker 1: I usually get up like five hours into it to

767
00:25:20,991 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: walk my dogs and pee, but otherwise I am

768
00:25:23,701 --> 00:25:26,396
Speaker 1: down there I am just doing my thing, and so

769
00:25:26,456 --> 00:25:28,023
Speaker 1: I love the idea of ayahuasca.

770
00:25:28,175 --> 00:25:30,323
Speaker 1: But there's a part of me that's kind of

771
00:25:30,363 --> 00:25:32,321
Speaker 1: like nah, I'd rather just be at home doing

772
00:25:32,341 --> 00:25:33,744
Speaker 1: my thing and like like, if it takes me an

773
00:25:33,784 --> 00:25:35,425
Speaker 1: extra 10 years, it takes me an extra 10

774
00:25:35,465 --> 00:25:36,786
Speaker 1: years, fair enough.

775
00:25:36,866 --> 00:25:38,628
Speaker 2: I know I said, to be fair, it's a lot of

776
00:25:38,648 --> 00:25:40,189
Speaker 2: effort you have to travel to like kind of

777
00:25:40,269 --> 00:25:42,271
Speaker 2: bolivia or mexico or whatever it is, and

778
00:25:42,651 --> 00:25:43,972
Speaker 2: that's just effort in itself.

779
00:25:43,992 --> 00:25:45,378
Speaker 2: Especially, you've got your comfort of your

780
00:25:45,418 --> 00:25:45,900
Speaker 2: own place.

781
00:25:46,261 --> 00:25:47,145
Speaker 2: You could just do it at home.

782
00:25:47,326 --> 00:25:49,315
Speaker 2: Okay, why would I spend so like thousands

783
00:25:49,455 --> 00:25:50,878
Speaker 2: and thousands of dollars to go and do it

784
00:25:50,899 --> 00:25:52,161
Speaker 2: somewhere else where I could just do it

785
00:25:52,181 --> 00:25:52,402
Speaker 2: here?

786
00:25:52,863 --> 00:25:54,647
Speaker 2: You know, makes sense, makes sense.

787
00:25:55,068 --> 00:25:57,273
Speaker 2: But I've had weird, crazy stuff about it.

788
00:25:57,894 --> 00:25:59,418
Speaker 2: Uh, all that sort of stuff and it's like

789
00:26:00,301 --> 00:26:02,346
Speaker 2: completely changes your perspective on life,

790
00:26:02,386 --> 00:26:03,276
Speaker 2: and all that sort of stuff.

791
00:26:03,296 --> 00:26:06,464
Speaker 2: So I was like okay, but you can't do it in

792
00:26:06,484 --> 00:26:07,667
Speaker 2: the uk where I am right now.

793
00:26:07,687 --> 00:26:08,536
Speaker 2: You can't do it here.

794
00:26:08,736 --> 00:26:11,022
Speaker 2: So, yeah, and I wouldn't want to get it

795
00:26:11,082 --> 00:26:11,443
Speaker 2: anywhere.

796
00:26:11,463 --> 00:26:12,706
Speaker 2: I don't want to speak to the guy over in

797
00:26:12,727 --> 00:26:14,817
Speaker 2: the back of the uh, the tesco or the

798
00:26:14,837 --> 00:26:15,518
Speaker 2: supermarket.

799
00:26:15,638 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 2: Know, with the trench coat on going, can

800
00:26:16,980 --> 00:26:17,421
Speaker 2: you get me some?

801
00:26:17,661 --> 00:26:18,963
Speaker 2: I didn't watch it, it was picked.

802
00:26:18,983 --> 00:26:20,905
Speaker 2: You're like, oh, yeah, yeah, I can get you

803
00:26:20,925 --> 00:26:21,326
Speaker 2: some.

804
00:26:21,346 --> 00:26:22,687
Speaker 2: You come back and it's like what the fuck

805
00:26:22,727 --> 00:26:23,008
Speaker 2: is this?

806
00:26:23,028 --> 00:26:25,251
Speaker 2: He goes, I have no idea, you know.

807
00:26:25,511 --> 00:26:40,182
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean with a little bit of weed, but

808
00:26:40,088 --> 00:26:40,771
Speaker 1: I wasn't really into it, never did any

809
00:26:40,677 --> 00:26:41,814
Speaker 1: other drugs, was never really like into.

810
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:42,196
Speaker 1: You know, for whatever reason I always

811
00:26:42,102 --> 00:26:42,576
Speaker 1: thought I would be, cause I feel like I'm a

812
00:26:42,482 --> 00:26:42,995
Speaker 1: pretty open person.

813
00:26:42,901 --> 00:26:42,894
Speaker 1: I was always like, oh yeah, I'm going to do

814
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:43,369
Speaker 1: a lot of cocaine, I'm going to do ecstasy,

815
00:26:43,669 --> 00:26:45,290
Speaker 1: but for whatever reason, never, you know,

816
00:26:45,330 --> 00:26:45,750
Speaker 1: felt right.

817
00:26:46,190 --> 00:26:49,691
Speaker 1: And then, um, it actually like a few years

818
00:26:49,731 --> 00:26:51,232
Speaker 1: ago I was really sick, I was having a

819
00:26:51,252 --> 00:26:54,513
Speaker 1: digestive episode and a friend of mine just

820
00:26:54,653 --> 00:26:56,974
Speaker 1: gave me some psilocybin gummies as a gift.

821
00:26:57,054 --> 00:26:58,337
Speaker 1: It was like I just feel like you're going

822
00:26:58,357 --> 00:27:00,222
Speaker 1: to appreciate this and it's the exact

823
00:27:00,403 --> 00:27:02,156
Speaker 1: opposite person I would expect right, this

824
00:27:02,196 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 1: is a very straight laced person but said,

825
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,295
Speaker 1: you know, hey, mike, I appreciate this and

826
00:27:06,355 --> 00:27:08,218
Speaker 1: I tried it and it was okay.

827
00:27:08,238 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 1: Like I didn't really, you know, I don't

828
00:27:10,620 --> 00:27:12,843
Speaker 1: like getting like like tripping balls, like

829
00:27:12,883 --> 00:27:14,365
Speaker 1: I don't want to go far, I just want you

830
00:27:14,385 --> 00:27:14,905
Speaker 1: know a little bit.

831
00:27:15,226 --> 00:27:16,627
Speaker 1: So it was okay, it didn't do much.

832
00:27:16,948 --> 00:27:19,170
Speaker 1: But I noticed that things in my life

833
00:27:19,190 --> 00:27:24,517
Speaker 1: started changing and I was like I don't

834
00:27:24,537 --> 00:27:25,319
Speaker 1: know if there's a correlation, but it's

835
00:27:25,339 --> 00:27:26,162
Speaker 1: enough to like get me interested, and so I

836
00:27:26,182 --> 00:27:27,386
Speaker 1: really kind of went down that rabbit hole,

837
00:27:27,527 --> 00:27:28,992
Speaker 1: mostly just microdosing.

838
00:27:29,815 --> 00:27:30,917
Speaker 1: But what I would do cause I'm cheap is I

839
00:27:30,937 --> 00:27:32,539
Speaker 1: would take two edibles, I would meditate

840
00:27:32,559 --> 00:27:33,881
Speaker 1: for an hour, I would take two edibles, I

841
00:27:33,901 --> 00:27:36,225
Speaker 1: would meditate for an hour, I would take a

842
00:27:36,285 --> 00:27:38,829
Speaker 1: bath and then I would take the psilocybin

843
00:27:38,869 --> 00:27:43,238
Speaker 1: and lie down so that like I was so open and

844
00:27:43,258 --> 00:27:44,202
Speaker 1: stuff that I could use a very small amount

845
00:27:44,403 --> 00:27:46,861
Speaker 1: and go pretty far, and so that I liked.

846
00:27:47,415 --> 00:27:49,157
Speaker 1: And yeah, I would have days where I would

847
00:27:49,177 --> 00:27:51,540
Speaker 1: just be sitting there and all of a sudden I

848
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:52,836
Speaker 1: would just like start crying and be like,

849
00:27:53,117 --> 00:27:54,463
Speaker 1: oh, I was judging my dad.

850
00:28:00,955 --> 00:28:01,877
Speaker 2: He wasn just like start crying and be like,

851
00:28:01,897 --> 00:28:02,900
Speaker 2: oh, I was judging my dad, he wasn't judging

852
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,023
Speaker 2: me, and it was just like suddenly I would

853
00:28:04,043 --> 00:28:04,264
Speaker 2: realize it.

854
00:28:04,284 --> 00:28:05,086
Speaker 2: Oh wow, just all of a sudden comes out.

855
00:28:05,106 --> 00:28:05,888
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's wild, it's fucking crazy.

856
00:28:05,908 --> 00:28:06,129
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

857
00:28:06,189 --> 00:28:07,252
Speaker 2: The thing is, with this, the journey you're

858
00:28:07,272 --> 00:28:09,477
Speaker 2: obviously going on, so I think it must be

859
00:28:09,517 --> 00:28:10,780
Speaker 2: like a breath of fresh air.

860
00:28:11,381 --> 00:28:12,965
Speaker 2: You know you must sit there and go.

861
00:28:13,406 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 2: You came, you must have went leaps and

862
00:28:16,120 --> 00:28:18,276
Speaker 2: bounds over the past year or so from what

863
00:28:18,296 --> 00:28:19,058
Speaker 2: you used to be like.

864
00:28:19,599 --> 00:28:22,826
Speaker 2: Do you ever feel, like, do you look back at

865
00:28:22,926 --> 00:28:23,948
Speaker 2: it and can I cringe?

866
00:28:23,988 --> 00:28:27,342
Speaker 1: now I take it oh, yeah, I mean, who doesn't

867
00:28:27,442 --> 00:28:28,504
Speaker 1: right, like every?

868
00:28:28,624 --> 00:28:30,408
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm still working on not being

869
00:28:30,428 --> 00:28:32,361
Speaker 1: ashamed of the past and realizing, you know,

870
00:28:32,381 --> 00:28:33,968
Speaker 1: we're doing the best we can with what we've

871
00:28:34,008 --> 00:28:36,959
Speaker 1: got, um, and integrating all of it because,

872
00:28:37,381 --> 00:28:39,588
Speaker 1: yeah, I mean, I am so much more connected

873
00:28:39,628 --> 00:28:41,474
Speaker 1: to my husband, closer, I'm so much more

874
00:28:41,514 --> 00:28:43,299
Speaker 1: connected to friends, family, like, I'm

875
00:28:43,339 --> 00:28:44,743
Speaker 1: just more honest about things.

876
00:28:45,485 --> 00:28:46,816
Speaker 1: So definitely there's a part of me that

877
00:28:46,836 --> 00:28:49,042
Speaker 1: cringes, but there's also a part of me that

878
00:28:49,102 --> 00:28:50,847
Speaker 1: you know has developed a little bit of

879
00:28:50,875 --> 00:28:53,100
Speaker 1: compassion, mostly for others I'm working

880
00:28:53,140 --> 00:28:54,663
Speaker 1: on for myself, but we all.

881
00:28:55,004 --> 00:28:56,887
Speaker 1: Right, I got another metaphor for you.

882
00:28:56,948 --> 00:28:57,589
Speaker 1: You like this.

883
00:28:58,978 --> 00:29:01,425
Speaker 1: So this one came to me in the last week or

884
00:29:01,486 --> 00:29:01,606
Speaker 1: so.

885
00:29:02,015 --> 00:29:04,944
Speaker 1: So I realized, you know, we're all alone on

886
00:29:04,964 --> 00:29:06,897
Speaker 1: this mountain hiking and we're walking

887
00:29:06,938 --> 00:29:08,823
Speaker 1: around and we're kind of lost and we're

888
00:29:08,864 --> 00:29:09,786
Speaker 1: really confused.

889
00:29:10,116 --> 00:29:11,863
Speaker 1: And then we see something we recognize,

890
00:29:12,055 --> 00:29:13,660
Speaker 1: either something we've seen before or

891
00:29:13,901 --> 00:29:21,676
Speaker 1: people that look like us, and we're like,

892
00:29:21,696 --> 00:29:22,378
Speaker 1: oh, this is it, I found it.

893
00:29:22,398 --> 00:29:23,341
Speaker 1: So we put a trail marker down, we put a

894
00:29:23,381 --> 00:29:24,565
Speaker 1: label down and we're like, fuck yeah, this

895
00:29:24,585 --> 00:29:24,806
Speaker 1: is my place.

896
00:29:24,826 --> 00:29:25,729
Speaker 1: And we hang out there for a while and then

897
00:29:25,749 --> 00:29:27,054
Speaker 1: maybe we start to get a little bit restless

898
00:29:27,375 --> 00:29:28,939
Speaker 1: and so we're like, oh, I'm gonna go venture

899
00:29:28,959 --> 00:29:30,143
Speaker 1: into those woods, I'm gonna go see what's

900
00:29:30,183 --> 00:29:30,504
Speaker 1: over there.

901
00:29:31,126 --> 00:29:32,858
Speaker 1: And we see something that feels even more

902
00:29:32,918 --> 00:29:34,241
Speaker 1: like us and we're like, oh my, oh, my God,

903
00:29:34,281 --> 00:29:34,742
Speaker 1: this is it.

904
00:29:34,842 --> 00:29:36,245
Speaker 1: And so we put another trail marker, another

905
00:29:36,265 --> 00:29:37,687
Speaker 1: label down right and we hang out with the

906
00:29:37,707 --> 00:29:39,818
Speaker 1: people that are like that and we keep doing

907
00:29:39,838 --> 00:29:40,660
Speaker 1: this throughout our lives.

908
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,265
Speaker 1: Some of us stay really close to these

909
00:29:42,285 --> 00:29:43,837
Speaker 1: labels, some of us keep venturing and

910
00:29:44,097 --> 00:29:47,825
Speaker 1: moving into new ones and sooner or later we

911
00:29:47,885 --> 00:29:51,016
Speaker 1: see somebody who is, you know, still at one

912
00:29:51,036 --> 00:29:52,739
Speaker 1: of those labels that we were at before.

913
00:29:52,820 --> 00:29:54,883
Speaker 1: Right, and they come over to us and there's

914
00:29:54,923 --> 00:29:56,446
Speaker 1: a part of us that wants to like, shame them

915
00:29:56,486 --> 00:29:58,049
Speaker 1: and be like oh, I'm so much better than you

916
00:29:58,095 --> 00:29:59,702
Speaker 1: because I'm like way ahead on this path.

917
00:30:00,236 --> 00:30:01,181
Speaker 1: And then I paused.

918
00:30:01,295 --> 00:30:03,898
Speaker 1: I'm like no, no, no, I'm not just this

919
00:30:03,958 --> 00:30:06,937
Speaker 1: current label, I'm the whole path, I'm all

920
00:30:06,998 --> 00:30:07,359
Speaker 1: of that.

921
00:30:07,660 --> 00:30:09,556
Speaker 1: And so I know you, I know exactly what

922
00:30:09,576 --> 00:30:12,177
Speaker 1: you're feeling, I know exactly what I'm not

923
00:30:12,298 --> 00:30:14,559
Speaker 1: better than you, I'm still that exact

924
00:30:14,579 --> 00:30:14,959
Speaker 1: person.

925
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,222
Speaker 1: And then this is the real secret One day we

926
00:30:18,282 --> 00:30:20,783
Speaker 1: realize we're not even the path, we're the

927
00:30:20,803 --> 00:30:22,745
Speaker 1: whole fucking mountain, it's just the parts

928
00:30:22,785 --> 00:30:23,665
Speaker 1: we haven't explored yet.

929
00:30:23,725 --> 00:30:25,186
Speaker 1: The path is all we've explored and that's

930
00:30:25,226 --> 00:30:26,547
Speaker 1: cool, that's awesome.

931
00:30:26,887 --> 00:30:29,189
Speaker 1: But there's so much to explore and so

932
00:30:29,269 --> 00:30:31,971
Speaker 1: labels, identity, these are amazing things

933
00:30:32,031 --> 00:30:34,833
Speaker 1: to like signpost, say, where we've been,

934
00:30:36,155 --> 00:30:37,380
Speaker 1: help us connect with people, but ultimately

935
00:30:37,902 --> 00:30:39,821
Speaker 1: it's just one trail marker and a whole big

936
00:30:39,841 --> 00:30:41,749
Speaker 1: trail I like that.

937
00:30:41,769 --> 00:30:42,833
Speaker 2: That's why that's pretty deep.

938
00:30:42,973 --> 00:30:43,876
Speaker 2: That's pretty deep it is.

939
00:30:44,357 --> 00:30:44,939
Speaker 2: I like that.

940
00:30:44,959 --> 00:30:46,903
Speaker 2: That's pretty cool the way, if you yeah

941
00:30:46,964 --> 00:30:47,906
Speaker 2: well, I have to.

942
00:30:48,166 --> 00:30:51,068
Speaker 2: I have to dive, delve more into that myself.

943
00:30:51,109 --> 00:30:52,195
Speaker 2: To be fair, I'm gonna have to do that.

944
00:30:53,979 --> 00:30:55,383
Speaker 2: I'll be sitting here later on tonight,

945
00:30:55,423 --> 00:30:56,886
Speaker 2: going, going to bed, just lying awake with

946
00:30:56,906 --> 00:30:59,623
Speaker 2: my eyes wide open just going what's his

947
00:30:59,703 --> 00:30:59,984
Speaker 2: life?

948
00:31:01,796 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 2: What do I do?

949
00:31:02,820 --> 00:31:03,382
Speaker 2: Where's my man?

950
00:31:03,435 --> 00:31:04,118
Speaker 2: I need some mushrooms.

951
00:31:04,158 --> 00:31:05,282
Speaker 2: I need to get my guy involved.

952
00:31:05,563 --> 00:31:08,962
Speaker 2: Come over, that would sort me right out,

953
00:31:08,982 --> 00:31:09,484
Speaker 2: sort of thing.

954
00:31:10,035 --> 00:31:13,415
Speaker 2: So you mentioned as well, with the musical

955
00:31:13,535 --> 00:31:15,624
Speaker 2: and stuff like that, were you devastated?

956
00:31:15,998 --> 00:31:18,518
Speaker 2: Were you trying to Question?

957
00:31:18,638 --> 00:31:20,725
Speaker 2: One, did you not try and play yourself in

958
00:31:20,745 --> 00:31:21,186
Speaker 2: the musical?

959
00:31:21,795 --> 00:31:23,536
Speaker 2: And two, are you happy with the guy who's

960
00:31:23,597 --> 00:31:24,260
Speaker 2: actually playing you?

961
00:31:24,735 --> 00:31:28,424
Speaker 2: Because I would be like picking him from a

962
00:31:28,484 --> 00:31:31,684
Speaker 2: lineup of the most handsomest people in the

963
00:31:31,724 --> 00:31:34,178
Speaker 2: world, who's bald and a beard, and go right,

964
00:31:34,198 --> 00:31:35,764
Speaker 2: you can be me, you're good enough.

965
00:31:36,115 --> 00:31:37,722
Speaker 2: You might be the shittest actor in the

966
00:31:37,742 --> 00:31:39,762
Speaker 2: world, but hey, you look the part, mate.

967
00:31:41,276 --> 00:31:44,285
Speaker 1: So number one for the entire world.

968
00:31:44,515 --> 00:31:47,361
Speaker 1: It's thankful that I can't sing and never

969
00:31:47,562 --> 00:31:48,777
Speaker 1: wanted to be in that because I would be

970
00:31:48,817 --> 00:31:50,698
Speaker 1: terrible in this musical, so I'm so glad

971
00:31:50,718 --> 00:31:51,843
Speaker 1: that I'm not in this musical.

972
00:31:53,218 --> 00:31:54,856
Speaker 1: As far as the casting and stuff, it's

973
00:31:54,977 --> 00:31:57,114
Speaker 1: interesting because, you know, we have very

974
00:31:57,335 --> 00:31:59,321
Speaker 1: little control over a lot of things and

975
00:31:59,381 --> 00:32:00,624
Speaker 1: it's probably for the best.

976
00:32:00,644 --> 00:32:02,717
Speaker 1: Like I know nothing about broadway, I know

977
00:32:02,797 --> 00:32:05,643
Speaker 1: nothing about musicals, um, yeah, I got to

978
00:32:05,664 --> 00:32:07,648
Speaker 1: learn my first table read the other day,

979
00:32:07,796 --> 00:32:09,181
Speaker 1: which I didn't even really know what that

980
00:32:09,222 --> 00:32:09,864
Speaker 1: was like.

981
00:32:09,884 --> 00:32:12,094
Speaker 1: Like listen to act is, you know, reading it

982
00:32:12,134 --> 00:32:13,819
Speaker 1: in front of producers and all these things.

983
00:32:14,420 --> 00:32:16,706
Speaker 1: And, um, I mean, my heart was racing the

984
00:32:16,726 --> 00:32:18,180
Speaker 1: whole time, which I don't know why.

985
00:32:18,396 --> 00:32:20,257
Speaker 1: I didn't have to say or do anything, but I

986
00:32:20,277 --> 00:32:21,482
Speaker 1: was nervous the whole time.

987
00:32:22,736 --> 00:32:24,516
Speaker 1: You know, we've had a few iterations, so

988
00:32:24,596 --> 00:32:27,184
Speaker 1: I've now had three mics.

989
00:32:27,365 --> 00:32:30,541
Speaker 1: I think that I've gotten to know, and the

990
00:32:30,581 --> 00:32:33,158
Speaker 1: great thing about a gay relationship is we

991
00:32:33,178 --> 00:32:35,345
Speaker 1: can be competitive over everything.

992
00:32:35,815 --> 00:32:37,510
Speaker 1: And so, of course, course, I am like

993
00:32:37,691 --> 00:32:40,060
Speaker 1: totally like who's better looking, who has

994
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,186
Speaker 1: a better voice, who's a better actor, like

995
00:32:42,206 --> 00:32:43,717
Speaker 1: garrett, and I can totally compete about

996
00:32:43,757 --> 00:32:43,978
Speaker 1: that.

997
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,284
Speaker 1: Um, but actually, to be honest with you,

998
00:32:46,344 --> 00:32:48,238
Speaker 1: the actors have been like phenomenal.

999
00:32:48,298 --> 00:32:50,186
Speaker 1: They've blown me out of the water and you

1000
00:32:50,226 --> 00:32:52,415
Speaker 1: know, as I'm learning, as the show grows,

1001
00:32:52,796 --> 00:32:53,918
Speaker 1: they keep getting better and better.

1002
00:32:53,998 --> 00:32:56,001
Speaker 1: So we've had like really phenomenal actors

1003
00:32:56,182 --> 00:32:58,766
Speaker 1: and but I just keep telling every actor,

1004
00:32:58,786 --> 00:33:01,337
Speaker 1: when we the new actor comes, I say I want

1005
00:33:01,357 --> 00:33:04,326
Speaker 1: you to get really famous, because that way

1006
00:33:04,415 --> 00:33:06,583
Speaker 1: if I'm ever a party and someone says to me

1007
00:33:06,856 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: who do you think would play you in a movie,

1008
00:33:08,220 --> 00:33:10,316
Speaker 1: I'd be like, oh shit, I know, and so that's

1009
00:33:10,356 --> 00:33:12,098
Speaker 1: what I'm looking for here, yeah, yeah,

1010
00:33:12,118 --> 00:33:13,379
Speaker 1: because he's already done it.

1011
00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,982
Speaker 2: I had a conversation about who would play

1012
00:33:16,002 --> 00:33:17,584
Speaker 2: yourself in a movie, sort of thing, and I

1013
00:33:17,624 --> 00:33:22,390
Speaker 2: said James McAvoy, because he's just a bit

1014
00:33:22,410 --> 00:33:23,471
Speaker 2: of a legend, really isn't he?

1015
00:33:24,175 --> 00:33:24,542
Speaker 1: I see that for you.

1016
00:33:24,563 --> 00:33:26,617
Speaker 2: I see a resemblance there, you've got the

1017
00:33:26,657 --> 00:33:27,681
Speaker 2: Scottishness there.

1018
00:33:27,721 --> 00:33:28,444
Speaker 2: He shaves his head.

1019
00:33:28,595 --> 00:33:30,081
Speaker 2: He looked good in X-Men with a bald head.

1020
00:33:31,015 --> 00:33:32,257
Speaker 2: I think he can pull off a beard.

1021
00:33:32,277 --> 00:33:33,518
Speaker 2: So I was like I'll get james mcavoy

1022
00:33:33,558 --> 00:33:33,919
Speaker 2: involved.

1023
00:33:34,359 --> 00:33:36,482
Speaker 2: And then, um, somebody said, uh, what was

1024
00:33:36,522 --> 00:33:39,546
Speaker 2: it renting, um, or was it all it goes?

1025
00:33:39,626 --> 00:33:40,807
Speaker 2: Yeah, it goes.

1026
00:33:40,847 --> 00:33:42,049
Speaker 2: You throw regga.

1027
00:33:42,429 --> 00:33:50,635
Speaker 2: For when he was in train spotting, uh, okay.

1028
00:33:50,756 --> 00:33:52,179
Speaker 2: So I was like, do I look like a smack head?

1029
00:33:52,199 --> 00:33:53,141
Speaker 2: Then is that what I'm?

1030
00:33:53,161 --> 00:33:53,441
Speaker 2: Looking like?

1031
00:33:53,462 --> 00:33:53,862
Speaker 2: A heroin addict.

1032
00:33:53,882 --> 00:33:54,203
Speaker 2: Thanks for that.

1033
00:33:54,223 --> 00:33:55,125
Speaker 2: Um, but yeah, did you feel as if it was a

1034
00:33:55,145 --> 00:33:55,606
Speaker 2: bit weird?

1035
00:33:55,626 --> 00:33:57,410
Speaker 2: Because obviously, when you you walk into

1036
00:33:57,430 --> 00:33:59,062
Speaker 2: the table read people have never met you

1037
00:33:59,082 --> 00:33:59,564
Speaker 2: the actors.

1038
00:33:59,905 --> 00:34:00,628
Speaker 2: Did they turn around?

1039
00:34:01,171 --> 00:34:02,155
Speaker 2: Were they expecting someone?

1040
00:34:02,356 --> 00:34:04,544
Speaker 2: This, the mic is coming in, it's about him,

1041
00:34:04,645 --> 00:34:06,151
Speaker 2: this is his, his story.

1042
00:34:06,171 --> 00:34:07,416
Speaker 2: Did he expect you to come out and give it

1043
00:34:07,476 --> 00:34:07,596
Speaker 2: all?

1044
00:34:07,636 --> 00:34:11,104
Speaker 2: Like, hi, hi, how you all kind of you know

1045
00:34:11,124 --> 00:34:12,688
Speaker 2: like, uh, let's say, this story's about me.

1046
00:34:12,976 --> 00:34:14,402
Speaker 2: But you just walked in with a flannel shirt

1047
00:34:14,443 --> 00:34:15,628
Speaker 2: with say, show me your tits on it.

1048
00:34:16,430 --> 00:34:18,352
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, unfortunately I did wear a suit

1049
00:34:18,372 --> 00:34:18,873
Speaker 1: that day.

1050
00:34:18,973 --> 00:34:20,635
Speaker 1: So, you know, really sad for me.

1051
00:34:20,975 --> 00:34:25,379
Speaker 1: But no, it is weird because people have

1052
00:34:25,439 --> 00:34:27,842
Speaker 1: been working on this project and, like we

1053
00:34:27,882 --> 00:34:28,863
Speaker 1: had to do some.

1054
00:34:29,303 --> 00:34:30,745
Speaker 1: You know, I felt I'm going to sound like

1055
00:34:30,765 --> 00:34:32,326
Speaker 1: such a douchebag right now and I love it,

1056
00:34:32,346 --> 00:34:42,451
Speaker 1: so I'm going to try to to go to a little

1057
00:34:42,472 --> 00:34:43,275
Speaker 1: party and, um, the producer said, hey, can

1058
00:34:43,295 --> 00:34:44,259
Speaker 1: the social media person grab you for a few

1059
00:34:44,279 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: questions?

1060
00:34:44,561 --> 00:34:45,465
Speaker 1: And I, like you know, I really did feel

1061
00:34:45,485 --> 00:34:46,429
Speaker 1: like what the hell this is like you know,

1062
00:34:46,449 --> 00:34:47,432
Speaker 1: just like pass along.

1063
00:34:47,873 --> 00:34:50,418
Speaker 1: And the pr person, she looked at me and she

1064
00:34:50,478 --> 00:34:52,603
Speaker 1: said it's like meeting a celebrity, it's an

1065
00:34:52,910 --> 00:34:54,454
Speaker 1: honor because we've been talking about you

1066
00:34:54,515 --> 00:34:57,582
Speaker 1: so much, and so it was a very surreal,

1067
00:34:57,643 --> 00:35:00,298
Speaker 1: weird feeling because I'm like, I am not

1068
00:35:00,318 --> 00:35:02,388
Speaker 1: important, I mean nothing, I am less

1069
00:35:02,428 --> 00:35:05,177
Speaker 1: talented than every person here and yet

1070
00:35:05,217 --> 00:35:07,524
Speaker 1: like, and so there is a weird energy to it

1071
00:35:07,584 --> 00:35:09,028
Speaker 1: because it's fun.

1072
00:35:09,269 --> 00:35:10,996
Speaker 1: I'll admit it's fun because you get to go

1073
00:35:11,036 --> 00:35:12,843
Speaker 1: to the parties and people treat you like

1074
00:35:12,903 --> 00:35:15,092
Speaker 1: you did something important for this

1075
00:35:15,152 --> 00:35:17,479
Speaker 1: project but you did absolutely nothing and

1076
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,670
Speaker 1: you have no talent, and so, um, it is kind

1077
00:35:20,690 --> 00:35:22,392
Speaker 1: of a fun energy, but but I'll be honest, I

1078
00:35:22,452 --> 00:35:24,983
Speaker 1: do feel a little bit like not good enough

1079
00:35:25,044 --> 00:35:26,450
Speaker 1: sometimes, because you're just surrounded

1080
00:35:26,751 --> 00:35:29,017
Speaker 1: by really talented people and you're like I

1081
00:35:29,057 --> 00:35:29,478
Speaker 1: don't know.

1082
00:35:29,578 --> 00:35:31,590
Speaker 1: And then they ask you what you think and

1083
00:35:31,751 --> 00:35:34,676
Speaker 1: the thing is, you know, for good reason.

1084
00:35:34,857 --> 00:35:38,624
Speaker 1: The story is very accurate in a lot of ways

1085
00:35:38,850 --> 00:35:41,357
Speaker 1: but also keeps getting dramatized and so it

1086
00:35:41,397 --> 00:35:42,962
Speaker 1: gets less and less like our lives.

1087
00:35:43,270 --> 00:35:44,504
Speaker 1: So I kind of feel like I'm not really

1088
00:35:44,545 --> 00:35:47,591
Speaker 1: commenting on anything to do with me and in

1089
00:35:47,671 --> 00:35:50,532
Speaker 1: fact I'm just like a spectator, like oh,

1090
00:35:50,572 --> 00:35:52,313
Speaker 1: that's kind of interesting, but it's not

1091
00:35:52,433 --> 00:35:53,377
Speaker 1: really about me.

1092
00:35:53,530 --> 00:35:56,760
Speaker 1: So it's a weird middle ground for me.

1093
00:35:57,450 --> 00:35:59,374
Speaker 2: Do you not try and get like a walk-on part?

1094
00:35:59,394 --> 00:35:59,915
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.

1095
00:35:59,955 --> 00:36:00,636
Speaker 2: Just ground for me.

1096
00:36:00,656 --> 00:36:01,437
Speaker 2: Try and get a walk-on part.

1097
00:36:01,597 --> 00:36:02,018
Speaker 2: You know what?

1098
00:36:02,138 --> 00:36:05,184
Speaker 1: I mean my uncle, who's probably like 65 or

1099
00:36:05,224 --> 00:36:05,324
Speaker 1: so.

1100
00:36:06,570 --> 00:36:06,791
Speaker 1: He is all.

1101
00:36:06,991 --> 00:36:09,018
Speaker 1: By the way, this is supposed to be me when

1102
00:36:09,038 --> 00:36:09,700
Speaker 1: I was 24.

1103
00:36:10,451 --> 00:36:11,496
Speaker 1: 25, around that time.

1104
00:36:12,172 --> 00:36:13,992
Speaker 1: So you know, this is a while back.

1105
00:36:14,855 --> 00:36:16,815
Speaker 1: So, first of all, as far as actors go, it's

1106
00:36:16,915 --> 00:36:17,751
Speaker 1: all Gen Z kids.

1107
00:36:17,832 --> 00:36:19,298
Speaker 1: I don't know the actors.

1108
00:36:26,410 --> 00:36:27,192
Speaker 1: So when people say, say who's your dream

1109
00:36:27,211 --> 00:36:27,973
Speaker 1: actor, I'm on chat gbt trying to ask

1110
00:36:27,993 --> 00:36:29,095
Speaker 1: because timothy chalamet is the only person

1111
00:36:29,115 --> 00:36:29,456
Speaker 1: I know.

1112
00:36:29,476 --> 00:36:30,217
Speaker 1: So I don't know, uh, who else to say.

1113
00:36:30,237 --> 00:36:31,760
Speaker 1: But, um, uh, yeah, my uncle, he's 65.

1114
00:36:32,001 --> 00:36:34,170
Speaker 1: He's always like did you pitch me yet?

1115
00:36:34,250 --> 00:36:35,473
Speaker 1: Do you pitch me like I think I should be in

1116
00:36:35,493 --> 00:36:36,935
Speaker 1: the show, like I think that they, they need

1117
00:36:36,955 --> 00:36:38,999
Speaker 1: me in there, like oh, yeah, yeah, so it's

1118
00:36:39,119 --> 00:36:40,601
Speaker 1: actually, it's only two people, it's only

1119
00:36:40,682 --> 00:36:43,386
Speaker 1: two actors in the whole time, okay, oh,

1120
00:36:43,466 --> 00:36:45,109
Speaker 1: it's a story about two people, so that

1121
00:36:45,129 --> 00:36:46,613
Speaker 1: makes sense, there's only yeah, yeah, but I

1122
00:36:46,633 --> 00:36:48,277
Speaker 1: mean it's really kind of wild like they

1123
00:36:48,357 --> 00:36:52,054
Speaker 1: reference um, garrett's girlfriend but and

1124
00:36:52,094 --> 00:36:53,498
Speaker 1: she's in it, but she's not actually a

1125
00:36:53,538 --> 00:36:54,280
Speaker 1: physical character.

1126
00:36:54,821 --> 00:36:56,533
Speaker 1: I should just mention that a few times and

1127
00:36:56,553 --> 00:36:59,479
Speaker 1: stuff, yeah, her name's jenna in it, and I

1128
00:36:59,539 --> 00:37:01,003
Speaker 1: think it's really funny that there's this

1129
00:37:01,063 --> 00:37:03,495
Speaker 1: like group of mostly you know, mostly only

1130
00:37:03,556 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 1: friends and family have seen it but, um,

1131
00:37:05,841 --> 00:37:07,534
Speaker 1: there's a group of people who say that they

1132
00:37:07,594 --> 00:37:10,465
Speaker 1: are like jenna's supporters in justice for

1133
00:37:10,485 --> 00:37:12,714
Speaker 1: jenna, who's garrett cheats on her in it,

1134
00:37:13,156 --> 00:37:14,642
Speaker 1: and so I said that to the premiere.

1135
00:37:14,662 --> 00:37:16,630
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wear a justice for jenna t-shirt

1136
00:37:17,392 --> 00:37:18,895
Speaker 1: oh jesus, did you think she knows?

1137
00:37:18,955 --> 00:37:19,457
Speaker 1: about the play.

1138
00:37:20,359 --> 00:37:20,900
Speaker 1: So she does.

1139
00:37:21,241 --> 00:37:22,003
Speaker 1: He's still friends with her.

1140
00:37:22,211 --> 00:37:23,820
Speaker 1: Her name is not jenna in real life I won't

1141
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,348
Speaker 1: reveal her name because they changed it for

1142
00:37:25,369 --> 00:37:26,976
Speaker 1: a reason, but, um, we still know her.

1143
00:37:27,298 --> 00:37:28,021
Speaker 1: Uh, we're friends with her.

1144
00:37:28,081 --> 00:37:28,844
Speaker 1: She's married now.

1145
00:37:29,186 --> 00:37:30,892
Speaker 1: We went to her wedding last year and, um,

1146
00:37:30,912 --> 00:37:32,155
Speaker 1: we're gonna try to get her to go to the

1147
00:37:32,195 --> 00:37:34,801
Speaker 1: next show that'd be funny.

1148
00:37:35,142 --> 00:37:36,131
Speaker 2: Well, it must be a little bit.

1149
00:37:36,151 --> 00:37:38,054
Speaker 2: Well, the main thing is you guys are still

1150
00:37:38,074 --> 00:37:38,936
Speaker 2: like, kind of amicable about it.

1151
00:37:38,956 --> 00:37:39,436
Speaker 2: That's the main thing is.

1152
00:37:39,456 --> 00:37:40,298
Speaker 2: You guys are still kind of amical about it.

1153
00:37:40,318 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 2: That's the main thing about it, because a

1154
00:37:41,620 --> 00:37:43,283
Speaker 2: lot of people could go the opposite way and

1155
00:37:43,303 --> 00:37:44,085
Speaker 2: start hating him.

1156
00:37:45,190 --> 00:37:46,496
Speaker 1: And he would kill me if I didn't say this.

1157
00:37:46,750 --> 00:37:48,751
Speaker 1: He didn't cheat on her in real life, so

1158
00:37:48,771 --> 00:37:50,276
Speaker 1: that's important for him to get out there.

1159
00:37:50,296 --> 00:37:50,818
Speaker 1: Make sure of that.

1160
00:37:50,858 --> 00:37:51,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, of course.

1161
00:37:51,670 --> 00:37:53,016
Speaker 2: Wow, you don't want to be branded as that.

1162
00:38:04,790 --> 00:38:05,707
Speaker 1: Yeah, but why did they change the play

1163
00:38:05,584 --> 00:38:05,770
Speaker 1: there if he didn't life?

1164
00:38:05,646 --> 00:38:06,510
Speaker 1: Was that the dramatization of everything?

1165
00:38:06,386 --> 00:38:07,546
Speaker 2: yeah, just the dramatization, and you know

1166
00:38:07,422 --> 00:38:08,487
Speaker 2: there wasn't actually an overlap between

1167
00:38:08,363 --> 00:38:08,696
Speaker 2: him dating her and me, there was, you know,

1168
00:38:08,573 --> 00:38:09,021
Speaker 2: a little bit of break, but for the story it

1169
00:38:08,897 --> 00:38:09,511
Speaker 2: sounds more dramatic.

1170
00:38:09,388 --> 00:38:09,770
Speaker 2: You know that does, doesn't it?

1171
00:38:09,647 --> 00:38:10,515
Speaker 2: Got it got sick, got to get bums on seats

1172
00:38:10,575 --> 00:38:10,876
Speaker 2: making.

1173
00:38:10,936 --> 00:38:12,259
Speaker 2: I mean you'll have to have some way of

1174
00:38:12,300 --> 00:38:13,583
Speaker 2: getting the audience in.

1175
00:38:14,151 --> 00:38:15,452
Speaker 2: So, uh, I'll be good.

1176
00:38:15,492 --> 00:38:16,914
Speaker 2: I mean that's going to be exciting times.

1177
00:38:16,934 --> 00:38:17,996
Speaker 2: You mentioned there's going to be a lot of

1178
00:38:18,016 --> 00:38:18,617
Speaker 2: things happening.

1179
00:38:18,697 --> 00:38:20,379
Speaker 2: Is there anything you can tell us about it?

1180
00:38:20,399 --> 00:38:23,243
Speaker 1: I mean it's really good.

1181
00:38:23,263 --> 00:38:25,105

Speaker 2: But she's loving her musicals.

1238
00:40:05,947 --> 00:40:06,630
Speaker 2: Now do you know what it's making?

1239
00:40:07,352 --> 00:40:08,998
Speaker 2: I'm liking musicals again because I used to

1240
00:40:09,018 --> 00:40:09,760
Speaker 2: be dead against them.

1241
00:40:10,312 --> 00:40:10,995
Speaker 2: I used to hate them.

1242
00:40:11,015 --> 00:40:13,249
Speaker 2: I used to just go, oh, this is so boring,

1243
00:40:13,490 --> 00:40:14,252
Speaker 2: and all that sort of stuff.

1244
00:40:14,272 --> 00:40:18,219
Speaker 2: But I getting swayed towards the musicals

1245
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:19,201
Speaker 2: just because I've been watching them with

1246
00:40:19,221 --> 00:40:20,623
Speaker 2: my kids and I'm like, all right, cool,

1247
00:40:20,723 --> 00:40:21,224
Speaker 2: what's next?

1248
00:40:21,790 --> 00:40:22,815
Speaker 2: You know what are we watching next?

1249
00:40:23,071 --> 00:40:24,718
Speaker 2: And she goes for hardcore ones.

1250
00:40:25,110 --> 00:40:27,396
Speaker 2: I actually went to a show called Miss

1251
00:40:27,416 --> 00:40:27,897
Speaker 2: Saigon.

1252
00:40:27,917 --> 00:40:28,899
Speaker 2: Have you seen that one before?

1253
00:40:29,300 --> 00:40:31,433
Speaker 1: I have you know when I was little, it was

1254
00:40:31,493 --> 00:40:32,396
Speaker 1: my favorite musical.

1255
00:40:32,998 --> 00:40:33,199
Speaker 2: Is it?

1256
00:40:36,616 --> 00:40:38,219
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got dragged to that and I was just

1257
00:40:38,579 --> 00:40:40,803
Speaker 2: that's how uncultured I was back then

1258
00:40:40,823 --> 00:40:42,717
Speaker 2: because I was like when are they talking?

1259
00:40:42,878 --> 00:40:44,225
Speaker 2: They sing all the way through it, don't

1260
00:40:44,245 --> 00:40:44,325
Speaker 2: they?

1261
00:40:44,346 --> 00:40:45,792
Speaker 2: And that's like a proper musical is.

1262
00:40:45,812 --> 00:40:47,336
Speaker 2: They sing everything.

1263
00:40:47,697 --> 00:40:49,421
Speaker 2: And it's like I'm now walking down the

1264
00:40:49,461 --> 00:40:51,491
Speaker 2: stairs and I'm like why can you just say

1265
00:40:51,512 --> 00:40:51,712
Speaker 2: that?

1266
00:40:51,732 --> 00:40:53,597
Speaker 2: You know, I'm just like, and they, they did

1267
00:40:53,637 --> 00:40:54,840
Speaker 2: that and I was like I.

1268
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:56,350
Speaker 2: It freaked me right out.

1269
00:40:56,431 --> 00:40:57,453
Speaker 2: It freaked me out because why are they

1270
00:40:57,493 --> 00:40:57,813
Speaker 2: talking?

1271
00:40:57,833 --> 00:40:59,056
Speaker 2: Why are they singing while talking?

1272
00:40:59,116 --> 00:40:59,276
Speaker 2: What?

1273
00:40:59,316 --> 00:40:59,977
Speaker 2: What's going on?

1274
00:41:00,659 --> 00:41:01,981
Speaker 2: And then I realized that's what musicals

1275
00:41:02,001 --> 00:41:02,382
Speaker 2: are all about.

1276
00:41:02,402 --> 00:41:03,790
Speaker 2: They're not like disney musicals, where

1277
00:41:03,810 --> 00:41:05,575
Speaker 2: they have like musical numbers every now

1278
00:41:05,595 --> 00:41:06,016
Speaker 2: and again.

1279
00:41:06,116 --> 00:41:08,582
Speaker 2: It's all the way right well, yeah, so I've

1280
00:41:08,610 --> 00:41:09,837
Speaker 2: been getting into my musicals recently

1281
00:41:09,877 --> 00:41:11,728
Speaker 2: because of my crazy daughter is getting

1282
00:41:11,748 --> 00:41:12,150
Speaker 2: into him as well.

1283
00:41:12,370 --> 00:41:12,911
Speaker 2: So there you go.

1284
00:41:13,352 --> 00:41:14,435
Speaker 1: I love this.

1285
00:41:14,555 --> 00:41:16,418
Speaker 1: I uh, that's so amazing.

1286
00:41:16,759 --> 00:41:17,821
Speaker 1: I went when I was little.

1287
00:41:17,962 --> 00:41:20,807
Speaker 1: My grandpa used to take us to musicals uh,

1288
00:41:20,827 --> 00:41:23,896
Speaker 1: just in boston, because, um, he, I think he

1289
00:41:24,056 --> 00:41:26,163
Speaker 1: thought we were very uncultured, so like he

1290
00:41:26,183 --> 00:41:27,628
Speaker 1: needed to teach us something.

1291
00:41:28,089 --> 00:41:30,234
Speaker 1: Except he would fall asleep and snore every

1292
00:41:30,274 --> 00:41:33,542
Speaker 1: musical we went to and I never, like after

1293
00:41:33,562 --> 00:41:35,053
Speaker 1: that, I kind of like forgot about them,

1294
00:41:35,134 --> 00:41:37,042
Speaker 1: wasn't really into musicals, and so it was

1295
00:41:37,082 --> 00:41:38,990
Speaker 1: a big irony because I know nothing about

1296
00:41:39,090 --> 00:41:39,271
Speaker 1: them.

1297
00:41:39,712 --> 00:41:41,215
Speaker 1: And I realized you said something

1298
00:41:41,255 --> 00:41:42,398
Speaker 1: interesting when you said like, oh, you

1299
00:41:42,418 --> 00:41:43,921
Speaker 1: know, I always thought musicals were boring.

1300
00:41:44,422 --> 00:41:46,554
Speaker 1: I feel like there's this very um,

1301
00:41:47,436 --> 00:41:49,381
Speaker 1: problematic aspect of like you know, it's

1302
00:41:49,401 --> 00:41:50,892
Speaker 1: kind of like cool to be like butch, like

1303
00:41:50,932 --> 00:41:52,277
Speaker 1: yeah, musicals aren't that cool.

1304
00:41:52,317 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 1: I'm not that.

1305
00:41:53,241 --> 00:41:55,329
Speaker 1: And I realized, like you know, on this

1306
00:41:55,349 --> 00:41:56,932
Speaker 1: journey I've realized a lot of like the

1307
00:41:56,973 --> 00:41:58,475
Speaker 1: straight character bullshit, you know,

1308
00:41:58,495 --> 00:42:00,539
Speaker 1: speaking of your character stuff and all

1309
00:42:00,579 --> 00:42:02,904
Speaker 1: this stuff of like ways of being that I

1310
00:42:02,944 --> 00:42:04,467
Speaker 1: didn't even know I was doing.

1311
00:42:04,547 --> 00:42:06,972
Speaker 1: Like I've had to really unpack and look at

1312
00:42:07,052 --> 00:42:09,378
Speaker 1: you know, when, like I wouldn't say

1313
00:42:09,438 --> 00:42:11,142
Speaker 1: something was cute or adorable, I would say

1314
00:42:11,163 --> 00:42:12,115
Speaker 1: it was cool, I wouldn't.

1315
00:42:12,135 --> 00:42:14,205
Speaker 1: You know, there's all this stupid shit that

1316
00:42:14,225 --> 00:42:16,172
Speaker 1: you don't really think about and then you

1317
00:42:16,192 --> 00:42:17,635
Speaker 1: start you know I've been watching all these

1318
00:42:17,715 --> 00:42:18,336
Speaker 1: old movies.

1319
00:42:18,437 --> 00:42:19,840
Speaker 1: You know, like american pie I'm not that

1320
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,064
Speaker 1: old, but american pie or girl next door,

1321
00:42:22,104 --> 00:42:23,427
Speaker 1: like movies that I watched when I was

1322
00:42:23,447 --> 00:42:26,413
Speaker 1: younger, and you realize how much latent

1323
00:42:26,493 --> 00:42:28,918
Speaker 1: homoeroticism is in all of them.

1324
00:42:29,399 --> 00:42:31,823
Speaker 1: There is so many moments that you're like,

1325
00:42:31,843 --> 00:42:34,336
Speaker 1: oh shit, like there's a lot of unconscious

1326
00:42:34,376 --> 00:42:35,740
Speaker 1: shit these writers are putting out there

1327
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:36,691
Speaker 1: that they don't even know.

1328
00:42:37,051 --> 00:42:38,313
Speaker 1: Like I don't know if you know this and I

1329
00:42:38,373 --> 00:42:39,896
Speaker 1: hope this isn't inappropriate to say here,

1330
00:42:40,256 --> 00:42:43,521
Speaker 1: but in the movie american pie, right stiff,

1331
00:42:43,561 --> 00:42:47,487
Speaker 1: where drinks kevin's come but actually

1332
00:42:47,748 --> 00:42:49,792
Speaker 1: happens and, like you don't, he thinks

1333
00:42:49,912 --> 00:42:52,880
Speaker 1: about it as a joke yeah, because he jay-z's

1334
00:42:52,940 --> 00:42:54,492
Speaker 1: in the b-yard and then he comes exactly

1335
00:42:54,532 --> 00:42:57,458
Speaker 1: right like but like that shit is just

1336
00:42:57,599 --> 00:42:57,920
Speaker 1: layered.

1337
00:42:57,940 --> 00:42:59,731
Speaker 1: There's so much of that stuff and it's like

1338
00:42:59,932 --> 00:43:01,852
Speaker 1: funny, but I'm like well, like the whole

1339
00:43:01,892 --> 00:43:02,233
Speaker 1: movie.

1340
00:43:02,273 --> 00:43:04,117
Speaker 1: The premise of the movie is not about the

1341
00:43:04,157 --> 00:43:05,601
Speaker 1: guys fucking girls.

1342
00:43:05,941 --> 00:43:07,933
Speaker 1: It's about them losing their virginity

1343
00:43:08,014 --> 00:43:10,499
Speaker 1: together like it's more about them bonding

1344
00:43:10,740 --> 00:43:12,451
Speaker 1: than any connection with any of the women

1345
00:43:13,093 --> 00:43:15,017
Speaker 1: yeah, he also gets uh, pissed on as well,

1346
00:43:15,037 --> 00:43:15,298
Speaker 1: didn't he?

1347
00:43:15,538 --> 00:43:16,401
Speaker 2: from the the balcony?

1348
00:43:16,461 --> 00:43:18,332
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is that the second movie, but

1349
00:43:18,372 --> 00:43:20,496
Speaker 2: yes, he's out get pissed here with Don.

1350
00:43:20,516 --> 00:43:21,818
Speaker 1: He's like, oh, he's got these things.

1351
00:43:21,858 --> 00:43:23,582
Speaker 1: He's champagne, yeah, yeah, yeah, henry

1352
00:43:23,602 --> 00:43:24,163
Speaker 1: with the champagne.

1353
00:43:24,203 --> 00:43:26,556
Speaker 1: It's a great scene, but yeah, it's wild.

1354
00:43:26,610 --> 00:43:27,855
Speaker 1: You start to watch these things and you're

1355
00:43:27,875 --> 00:43:30,070
Speaker 1: like, wow, there's a lot of homoeroticism

1356
00:43:30,151 --> 00:43:32,693
Speaker 1: that's latent and hidden in our culture and

1357
00:43:32,793 --> 00:43:34,650
Speaker 1: we're just not able to talk about it more

1358
00:43:34,710 --> 00:43:35,131
Speaker 1: openly.

1359
00:43:35,993 --> 00:43:38,599
Speaker 2: That's a shame, though I think it's a

1360
00:43:38,659 --> 00:43:41,632
Speaker 2: little bit more acceptable now than when we

1361
00:43:41,652 --> 00:43:43,077
Speaker 2: were kids, sort of thing, for instance.

1362
00:43:43,137 --> 00:43:46,097
Speaker 2: Oh no, not even you can go across and do it,

1363
00:43:46,137 --> 00:43:48,377
Speaker 2: you know, and people are just not batting

1364
00:43:48,437 --> 00:43:50,135
Speaker 2: an eyelid anymore, which is great.

1365
00:43:50,210 --> 00:43:51,654
Speaker 2: It means we're coming along as a society

1366
00:43:51,795 --> 00:43:53,259
Speaker 2: more than anything else, you know, which is

1367
00:43:53,340 --> 00:43:53,621
Speaker 2: great.

1368
00:43:53,770 --> 00:43:55,094
Speaker 2: People feel more comfortable in who they

1369
00:43:55,215 --> 00:43:56,158
Speaker 2: are, etc.

1370
00:43:56,238 --> 00:43:57,472
Speaker 2: Etc, sort of thing.

1371
00:43:57,492 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 2: But you were talking about films we used to

1372
00:44:00,660 --> 00:44:01,382
Speaker 2: watch when we were kids.

1373
00:44:02,250 --> 00:44:04,536
Speaker 2: I watched Wayne's World the other day there.

1374
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:06,462
Speaker 1: It's on my list.

1375
00:44:06,610 --> 00:44:08,638
Speaker 1: We watched it about a month ago Do you know

1376
00:44:08,678 --> 00:44:10,556
Speaker 1: what I'm disappointed?

1377
00:44:10,870 --> 00:44:12,715
Speaker 2: It doesn't age well at all, does it though?

1378
00:44:12,956 --> 00:44:16,572
Speaker 1: What I'm just like oh, the thing is you've

1379
00:44:16,592 --> 00:44:18,756
Speaker 1: got to watch things in the context of the

1380
00:44:18,776 --> 00:44:20,459
Speaker 1: time, Because what I realized is every

1381
00:44:20,519 --> 00:44:22,443
Speaker 1: movie is just a reflection of the culture

1382
00:44:22,483 --> 00:44:23,144
Speaker 1: at the time, right?

1383
00:44:23,210 --> 00:44:26,071
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's pretty problematic, but I

1384
00:44:26,131 --> 00:44:27,436
Speaker 1: still think Wayne's World has some funny

1385
00:44:27,456 --> 00:44:27,757
Speaker 1: parts.

1386
00:44:28,339 --> 00:44:28,720
Speaker 2: It's good.

1387
00:44:29,091 --> 00:44:30,898
Speaker 2: I used to love that film when I was a kid.

1388
00:44:32,011 --> 00:44:35,740
Speaker 2: We used to basically talk about it, we used

1389
00:44:35,761 --> 00:44:37,453
Speaker 2: to dictate it, we used to act all the

1390
00:44:37,473 --> 00:44:39,579
Speaker 2: scenes out when you were at school or that,

1391
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,154
Speaker 2: all the time and I was like, oh my god, it

1392
00:44:42,174 --> 00:44:42,696
Speaker 2: just came on.

1393
00:44:42,716 --> 00:44:44,545
Speaker 2: My like I think it was netflix or something

1394
00:44:44,565 --> 00:44:44,967
Speaker 2: like came on.

1395
00:44:44,987 --> 00:44:46,152
Speaker 2: I was like I'm gonna watch this.

1396
00:44:46,473 --> 00:44:48,097
Speaker 2: And I think I got halfway through and I was.

1397
00:44:48,237 --> 00:44:50,002
Speaker 2: I was like, oh my god, this is not as good

1398
00:44:50,431 --> 00:44:51,495
Speaker 2: as it was when I was a kid.

1399
00:44:51,696 --> 00:44:52,740
Speaker 2: I was devastated.

1400
00:44:53,161 --> 00:44:55,129
Speaker 2: I should have got messed up, should have

1401
00:44:55,149 --> 00:44:57,073
Speaker 2: got fucking smoked some weed or something

1402
00:44:57,114 --> 00:44:58,757
Speaker 2: before I actually watched it yes,

1403
00:44:58,777 --> 00:44:59,459
Speaker 2: definitely, yes, definitely I do.

1404
00:44:59,479 --> 00:45:00,120
Speaker 1: You have to smoke weed.

1405
00:45:00,461 --> 00:45:01,563
Speaker 1: That's what makes everything better.

1406
00:45:03,586 --> 00:45:05,082
Speaker 1: We were on the train to New York this

1407
00:45:05,122 --> 00:45:06,576
Speaker 1: weekend and it's funny you're saying this.

1408
00:45:06,838 --> 00:45:08,291
Speaker 1: We went through and we made a list because

1409
00:45:08,311 --> 00:45:09,697
Speaker 1: we were bored it's about a four-hour train

1410
00:45:11,204 --> 00:45:12,432
Speaker 1: of all the movies we watched.

1411
00:45:12,452 --> 00:45:15,034
Speaker 1: We've watched probably I don't know 50, 80

1412
00:45:15,074 --> 00:45:18,054
Speaker 1: movies over the last year and we listed,

1413
00:45:18,094 --> 00:45:19,898
Speaker 1: like, what was the biggest disappointment

1414
00:45:19,958 --> 00:45:21,401
Speaker 1: that we loved when we were kid, but we

1415
00:45:21,441 --> 00:45:21,761
Speaker 1: weren't.

1416
00:45:21,821 --> 00:45:24,694
Speaker 1: What was the you know, the biggest surprise?

1417
00:45:24,835 --> 00:45:27,074
Speaker 1: I liked, you know, and also I grew up with

1418
00:45:27,114 --> 00:45:29,551
Speaker 1: two sisters and my dad traveled a lot, so

1419
00:45:29,591 --> 00:45:31,437
Speaker 1: there were a number of movies, like boy

1420
00:45:31,477 --> 00:45:33,573
Speaker 1: movies, that my, it was going to be a no go

1421
00:45:33,614 --> 00:45:34,572
Speaker 1: in my house, like that.

1422
00:45:34,592 --> 00:45:36,118
Speaker 1: My sisters were not going to agree to it,

1423
00:45:36,490 --> 00:45:38,398
Speaker 1: so I just missed out, whereas Garrett grew

1424
00:45:38,438 --> 00:45:40,547
Speaker 1: up with two brothers and so he's introduced

1425
00:45:40,587 --> 00:45:42,332
Speaker 1: me to a whole like um, I don't know if

1426
00:45:42,353 --> 00:45:44,217
Speaker 1: you've seen the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie

1427
00:45:44,277 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 1: Last Action Hero.

1428
00:45:46,442 --> 00:45:49,375
Speaker 1: Uh, yes, it's like I had never seen that.

1429
00:45:49,575 --> 00:45:52,261
Speaker 1: Excellent, beyond excellent, oh you.

1430
00:45:52,401 --> 00:45:54,191
Speaker 2: If you like that one, you need some.

1431

Speaker 2: I love my old 80s films, my old 90s,

1432
00:45:56,935 --> 00:45:58,658
Speaker 2: especially Arnie and all that sort of stuff,

1433
00:45:59,159 --> 00:46:02,285
Speaker 2: and I was actually on a podcast with one of

Speaker 2: that on different films and one of them

1437
00:46:12,506 --> 00:46:14,014
Speaker 2: I've been dying to do and I'm finally

1438
00:46:14,055 --> 00:46:14,597
Speaker 2: getting to do it.

1439
00:46:14,630 --> 00:46:15,333
Speaker 2: I don't know if you've seen it.

1440
00:46:15,353 --> 00:46:16,418
Speaker 2: Have you ever seen Commando?

1441
00:46:17,471 --> 00:46:18,375
Speaker 2: I've actually never seen it.

1442
00:46:18,395 --> 00:46:19,554
Speaker 2: It's on our list but I have never seen it.

1443
00:46:20,258 --> 00:46:23,092
Speaker 2: Oh, my god, you are gonna love this film

1444
00:46:23,132 --> 00:46:27,061
Speaker 2: because it is full of cheesy one-liners is

1445
00:46:27,241 --> 00:46:29,206
Speaker 2: amazing, absolutely.

1446
00:46:29,467 --> 00:46:31,511
Speaker 2: And the I'm not talking about the usual

1447
00:46:31,572 --> 00:46:34,258
Speaker 2: sort of one or two and the whole film, I'm

1448
00:46:34,298 --> 00:46:36,122
Speaker 2: talking about every five minutes there's

1449
00:46:36,283 --> 00:46:39,195
Speaker 2: one and annie is on top cheesy action hero,

1450
00:46:39,236 --> 00:46:42,522
Speaker 2: for his tales are amazing, so, so good.

1451
00:46:42,983 --> 00:46:44,973
Speaker 2: And there's ah, I could sit there and

1452
00:46:46,295 --> 00:46:48,801
Speaker 2: dictate about seven of them, but I don't

1453
00:46:48,821 --> 00:46:50,003
Speaker 2: want to ruin the film for you.

1454
00:46:50,043 --> 00:46:52,235
Speaker 2: Just honestly sit down and watch that film

1455
00:46:52,456 --> 00:46:54,521
Speaker 2: and then thank me later because it's such a

1456
00:46:54,561 --> 00:46:56,817
Speaker 2: good film and I'm going to review it on my

1457
00:46:56,857 --> 00:46:58,685
Speaker 2: list and I'm going to review it on this

1458
00:46:58,766 --> 00:47:00,493
Speaker 2: podcast next month, I think and it's going

1459
00:47:00,513 --> 00:47:01,993
Speaker 2: to be so much fun because I've been dying

1460
00:47:02,034 --> 00:47:04,014
Speaker 2: to talk about this film and no one I know

1461
00:47:04,054 --> 00:47:05,038
Speaker 2: none of my friends have seen it.

1462
00:47:05,391 --> 00:47:06,636
Speaker 2: They're like oh, that's cheesy as hell.

1463
00:47:07,450 --> 00:47:08,172
Speaker 2: I go exactly.

1464
00:47:08,534 --> 00:47:09,637
Speaker 2: It's the best film ever.

1465
00:47:10,059 --> 00:47:10,460
Speaker 2: Why are you?

1466
00:47:11,256 --> 00:47:12,890
Speaker 2: You've not lived until you've seen Commando.

1467
00:47:13,954 --> 00:47:15,018
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, none of this.

1468
00:47:15,058 --> 00:47:17,778
Speaker 2: Like Citizen Kane and all that sort of

1469
00:47:17,819 --> 00:47:18,099
Speaker 2: stuff.

1470
00:47:19,534 --> 00:47:21,159
Speaker 2: Commando is the one you need to watch.

1471
00:47:21,660 --> 00:47:23,256
Speaker 2: That's what's going to make you into a man

1472
00:47:23,912 --> 00:47:26,111
Speaker 2: seen Arnie go up against a thousand men on

1473
00:47:26,151 --> 00:47:26,593
Speaker 2: his own.

1474
00:47:27,035 --> 00:47:29,930
Speaker 2: Fuck, yes, I'm getting excited just talking

1475
00:47:29,990 --> 00:47:30,372
Speaker 2: about it.

1476
00:47:30,392 --> 00:47:33,638
Speaker 2: Look, fuck's sake, I'm getting out of it.

1477
00:47:36,502 --> 00:47:38,111
Speaker 2: So I mean, you've got the films, you've got

1478
00:47:38,151 --> 00:47:39,913
Speaker 2: that sort of stuff going, so what other

1479
00:47:39,933 --> 00:47:40,696
Speaker 2: films have you been watching?

1480
00:47:43,216 --> 00:47:44,042
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of something.

1481
00:47:44,082 --> 00:47:46,074
Speaker 2: I'm talking about Super Troopers we've done

1482
00:47:46,114 --> 00:47:49,500
Speaker 2: recently that's a hidden gem, that is,

1483
00:47:49,631 --> 00:47:52,558
Speaker 2: that's very under razor yeah, I had.

1484
00:47:52,779 --> 00:47:54,388
Speaker 1: That's not the one I hadn't seen, right, so

1485
00:47:54,408 --> 00:47:55,712
Speaker 1: like I don't know how that one passed me

1486
00:47:55,732 --> 00:47:56,754
Speaker 1: because that would have been a little bit

1487
00:47:56,774 --> 00:47:58,457
Speaker 1: later, but um, never saw that.

1488
00:47:58,658 --> 00:48:00,562
Speaker 1: Um, let me think what else we love.

1489
00:48:01,363 --> 00:48:02,194
Speaker 1: Um, you know what?

1490
00:48:02,415 --> 00:48:02,736
Speaker 1: Fuck it.

1491
00:48:02,756 --> 00:48:03,681
Speaker 1: I've got my list here.

1492
00:48:03,721 --> 00:48:04,686
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pull it up because I have a

1493
00:48:04,727 --> 00:48:05,350
Speaker 1: terrible memory.

1494
00:48:05,791 --> 00:48:07,174
Speaker 1: Let me, so we can go through some of these.

1495
00:48:07,755 --> 00:48:10,501
Speaker 1: Um, all right, uh, wedding crashers, of

1496
00:48:10,541 --> 00:48:10,782

Speaker 1: Mighty ducks, excellent, um, you know.

Speaker 1: One um here with other this good one.

1500
00:48:19,424 --> 00:48:20,206
Speaker 2: This is going to be funny.

1501
00:48:20,226 --> 00:48:20,947
Speaker 2: Tommy Boy right.

1502
00:48:21,027 --> 00:48:25,112
Speaker 2: My message tone is when Tommy Boy goes oh

1503
00:48:25,212 --> 00:48:28,476
Speaker 2: my god, that is my message whenever I get a

1504
00:48:28,516 --> 00:48:30,281
Speaker 2: message that pops up and I've had that for

1505
00:48:30,301 --> 00:48:33,110
Speaker 2: about 15 years I've had that message.

1506
00:48:33,210 --> 00:48:34,336
Speaker 2: I dare not get rid of it.

1507
00:48:34,491 --> 00:48:35,676
Speaker 2: It's the best film ever.

1508
00:48:36,195 --> 00:48:40,222
Speaker 2: It's so good, it's so good oh, basketball,

Speaker 1: I saw it in theaters.

Speaker 1: I remember it was 13 Out Cold.

1516
00:48:55,773 --> 00:48:59,591
Speaker 1: It's like a cheesy animal house, but in a

1517
00:48:59,631 --> 00:49:00,892
Speaker 1: mountain like a ski mountain.

1518
00:49:00,912 --> 00:49:02,513
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, like a cheesy animal house, but

1519
00:49:02,533 --> 00:49:04,314
Speaker 2: in a mountain, like a ski mountain.

1520
00:49:04,415 --> 00:49:05,836
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, I'll have to catch that one out.

1521
00:49:05,856 --> 00:49:07,837
Speaker 2: Yeah, because that must have been back in

1522
00:49:07,998 --> 00:49:11,100
Speaker 2: the early 90s, I think it came out.

1523

00:49:18,246 --> 00:49:18,786
Speaker 1: It's a great one.

1528
00:49:18,826 --> 00:49:22,992
Speaker 1: Idle Hands Good film those idle hands.

Speaker 1: absolutely, yeah.

1533
00:49:24,939 --> 00:49:26,525
Speaker 1: So so we've had a bunch um, yeah, yeah, oh,

1534
00:49:26,545 --> 00:49:27,789
Speaker 1: yeah, I've got I mean this thing, I don't

1535
00:49:27,810 --> 00:49:27,890
Speaker 1: know.

1536
00:49:28,271 --> 00:49:29,737
Speaker 1: I've got a list of probably 100, because

1537
00:49:30,139 --> 00:49:32,468
Speaker 1: now when people hear I'm doing this, like

1538
00:49:32,488 --> 00:49:33,932
Speaker 1: people always like, oh, what about this one,

1539
00:49:33,952 --> 00:49:34,674
Speaker 1: what about this one?

1540
00:49:34,714 --> 00:49:36,880
Speaker 1: So they're always adding to my list and

1541
00:49:36,940 --> 00:49:37,562
Speaker 1: what we do.

1542
00:49:37,730 --> 00:49:39,816
Speaker 1: And actually let me just give this to um,

1543
00:49:39,856 --> 00:49:41,481
Speaker 1: the audience, to you, to everybody, because

1544
00:49:41,791 --> 00:49:44,076
Speaker 1: it's the best thing I've ever done to not

1545
00:49:44,156 --> 00:49:45,860
Speaker 1: fight about things every night.

1546
00:49:45,961 --> 00:49:47,572
Speaker 1: When we pick a movie, or we do this for

1547
00:49:47,612 --> 00:49:50,301
Speaker 1: dinner, we just play a simple game I

1548
00:49:50,381 --> 00:49:52,509
Speaker 1: nominate one movie from the list, garrett

1549
00:49:52,549 --> 00:49:53,331
Speaker 1: nominates one movie.

1550
00:49:53,672 --> 00:49:54,674
Speaker 1: I nominate a second movie.

1551
00:49:54,975 --> 00:49:56,138
Speaker 1: He nominates a second movie.

1552
00:49:56,478 --> 00:49:58,283
Speaker 1: I eliminate one, he eliminates one.

1553
00:49:58,511 --> 00:50:00,397
Speaker 1: I pick the winner and we just switch who

1554
00:50:00,417 --> 00:50:01,260
Speaker 1: goes first every night.

1555
00:50:01,991 --> 00:50:03,557
Speaker 1: Or we do that with food, with takeout.

1556
00:50:04,071 --> 00:50:06,177
Speaker 1: It works so well because you're not

1557
00:50:06,217 --> 00:50:07,541
Speaker 1: guaranteed you're going to get your top

1558
00:50:07,561 --> 00:50:09,654
Speaker 1: choice, but you are guaranteed you won't

1559
00:50:09,714 --> 00:50:10,636
Speaker 1: get what you don't want.

1560
00:50:11,899 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 2: That's good.

1561
00:50:12,180 --> 00:50:13,531
Speaker 2: It's a good way of doing it, it's a good

1562
00:50:13,571 --> 00:50:15,535
Speaker 2: way of solving arguments, because that's

1563
00:50:15,876 --> 00:50:18,943
Speaker 2: probably the main reason for arguments.

1564
00:50:21,380 --> 00:50:22,826
Speaker 2: And so, what do we want?

1565
00:50:23,030 --> 00:50:23,772
Speaker 2: What should we watch?

1566
00:50:23,812 --> 00:50:25,797
Speaker 2: I mean, it is right, exactly, I used to

1567
00:50:25,837 --> 00:50:27,642
Speaker 2: spend with one of my ex-girlfriends, was?

1568
00:50:28,492 --> 00:50:29,975
Speaker 2: She's completely fucking insane, she's

1569
00:50:30,015 --> 00:50:30,997
Speaker 2: mental, uh.

1570
00:50:31,017 --> 00:50:33,243
Speaker 2: She used to always never choose any sort of

1571
00:50:33,283 --> 00:50:34,754
Speaker 2: film, and I used to be.

1572
00:50:34,814 --> 00:50:36,118
Speaker 2: I'm always like you know, I'll be a bit

1573
00:50:36,138 --> 00:50:36,479
Speaker 2: chivalrous.

1574
00:50:36,499 --> 00:50:37,490
Speaker 2: Would you want to watch, would you?

1575
00:50:37,530 --> 00:50:38,492
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know.

1576
00:50:38,512 --> 00:50:39,193
Speaker 2: Do you want to watch this?

1577
00:50:39,354 --> 00:50:40,335
Speaker 2: Do you want to watch commando?

1578
00:50:40,997 --> 00:50:42,179
Speaker 2: No, no, I don't want to watch that

1579
00:50:42,339 --> 00:50:43,020
Speaker 2: motherfucker.

1580
00:50:43,601 --> 00:50:44,062
Speaker 2: Why not?

1581
00:50:44,543 --> 00:50:47,116
Speaker 1: but yeah, but and here's the thing, like

1582
00:50:47,297 --> 00:50:50,088
Speaker 1: you, so we always alternate, and if someone

1583
00:50:50,128 --> 00:50:51,332
Speaker 1: picks dinner, the other person picks the

1584
00:50:51,352 --> 00:50:51,633
Speaker 1: movie.

1585
00:50:51,693 --> 00:50:54,219
Speaker 1: But we, um, we've got this long list, and

1586
00:50:54,240 --> 00:50:56,393
Speaker 1: then what's really great is you start like

1587
00:50:57,115 --> 00:50:59,101
Speaker 1: showing yourself to the other person, like

1588
00:50:59,121 --> 00:50:59,341
Speaker 1: you know.

1589
00:50:59,743 --> 00:51:00,946
Speaker 1: So say, you, say commando.

1590
00:51:01,467 --> 00:51:03,576
Speaker 1: If I wrap commando like eight times, it

1591
00:51:03,616 --> 00:51:05,245
Speaker 1: keeps getting shut down, eventually

1592
00:51:05,285 --> 00:51:06,511
Speaker 1: garrett's gonna be like all right, I'm

1593
00:51:06,531 --> 00:51:08,135
Speaker 1: gonna give you commando because he knows

1594
00:51:08,175 --> 00:51:09,699
Speaker 1: that it's important to me and so it's a

1595
00:51:09,780 --> 00:51:11,333
Speaker 1: really cool way of you know.

1596
00:51:11,494 --> 00:51:13,242
Speaker 1: Otherwise, if I kept saying him let's watch

1597
00:51:13,282 --> 00:51:15,030
Speaker 1: commando, let's watch commando, he'd never

1598
00:51:15,090 --> 00:51:15,451
Speaker 1: watch it.

1599
00:51:15,731 --> 00:51:17,735
Speaker 1: But if I'm nominating it all the time, he's

1600
00:51:17,755 --> 00:51:19,759
Speaker 1: like okay, I've, I've canceled it out

1601
00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:21,984
Speaker 1: enough, like I have to give this one to you,

1602
00:51:22,370 --> 00:51:24,277
Speaker 1: and so it's actually for me it's been

1603
00:51:24,297 --> 00:51:25,835
Speaker 1: really great because there are a lot of

1604
00:51:25,855 --> 00:51:26,136
Speaker 1: movies.

1605
00:51:26,176 --> 00:51:27,435
Speaker 1: I was like I don't think I would like that

1606
00:51:27,790 --> 00:51:29,112
Speaker 1: and we ended up watching it and it's

1607
00:51:29,412 --> 00:51:29,912
Speaker 1: phenomenal.

1608
00:51:30,633 --> 00:51:31,414
Speaker 2: Oh, nice one.

1609
00:51:31,695 --> 00:51:32,135
Speaker 2: That's good.

1610
00:51:32,275 --> 00:51:32,636
Speaker 2: Good way to do it.

1611
00:51:32,656 --> 00:51:33,236
Speaker 2: I'm going to keep that.

1612
00:51:33,256 --> 00:51:35,199
Speaker 2: I'm going to be a population dumpsville,

1613
