Because you're giving just enough breasts to to make you still not be too hoary, so you're like a sweetheart for showing just the tippy tops of the breasts, the buds, the breast buds. Oh, speaking of the chat telling us I'm wrong, a huge shout out to Danielle for texting me that um she fully disagrees with me on the breakdown of summer, spring months from last episode and just agrees with Anya on everything. And I've known you longer.
00:02:32
Speaker
I've known you longer. Should have agreed with me. Mm-hmm. Beyond that, everyone agreed with me. but The polls were open. You can check check the ballots because it was 100% yes. I'm double checking. I don't trust it. I don't believe you gave ever everyone and the opportunity to vote. I believe you kept some people away from the votes. I believe you didn't count certain votes that you just deemed not to be good. yeah So you know what? I i demand a
Weather Patterns & California Comparisons

Speaker
recount. Well, you know, to your credit about winter seasonal months, um I mean, we had 90 degree weather here yesterday. Thank you. Yet it was snowing what in in Portland. So who knows? Who knows what weather is anymore?
00:03:24
Speaker
To be fair, California is the size of Europe. So it's like I understand the fluctuations sometimes, but a 90 degree day in March, that's disgusting. That's not right.
00:03:38
Speaker
That's God saying you're burdened up. You're going to be dead soon, boy.
00:03:45
Speaker
Wait, I'm stuck on What? Europe is the size of California? i mean, the the coast to from the tippy bottom of California to the tippy top, it's basically like the size from like what? Like Sweden all the way down to...
00:04:00
Speaker
down down down to like is this is really yeah okay we need to we're we're gonna check on this for sure um let me just double check that i i'm not not agreeing with you but just it's a bold statement you know when they're like texas as this ah or you could you could fit you know i was looking at something the other day where they were like you could fit Bitch, look at that.
00:04:27
Speaker
Yeah. Damn, OK. Yeah, California is, from this beautifully created photograph from the internet, California is like if you go from like Luxembourg all the way down to boop, boop, boop, boop. It's hard. It's like midway through Italy. I mean, things, it's basically all of Europe.
00:04:47
Speaker
Wow. So fluctuation in temperature makes sense, but 90 in March is, that's not right. Yeah, it it it was kind of it was kind of crazy. It was a little much.
Wendy Williams Show Reflections
00:04:58
Speaker
Did you ever watch like Wendy Williams? Am I a Nicky fan? No one is. Yeah, not me anymore. not anymore um Since 2020, I hold that.
00:05:12
Speaker
I'm proud of that. Since 2020. Yeah. You haven't been a Nicki fan? No, not since her cousin's balls exploded after taking the COVID vaccine or whatever. The moment she started talking about that, I went, oh, we're that's right we're done with this. Yes. Yeah, i forgot she was anti the COVID. Well, the way they do it is they say something worse and worse. So you forget the stuff that came before. you just keep increasing the terribleness, you kind of forget that.
00:05:36
Speaker
It started somewhere. Yeah. um But yeah, so you watched, you used to watch Wendy at all? Oh, yes. Yeah. um i've just been like the last week i've been just binging all of those like best moments and everything and i just you know there was a reason why i liked her as much as as much as she would say certain things that were a little i mean so does doja cat and i like doja cat so I think you can't have someone be like 100% perfect. I think like for someone to be entertaining and brilliant and funny and off the cuff, people sometimes say stuff that is, a you know, yeah a little woo.
00:06:24
Speaker
A little woo, yeah. I love the one where someone in the audience confirmed that Cardi B was pregnant or something. And because she was like, oh, people are saying Cardi wouldn't be pregnant. And someone's like, she is. She goes, oh, you know that for sure? She's like, yes. And then she just grabs a mic, goes into the crowd, sits next to this woman, is like, how do you know this? Like, this is investigative journalism. Right here in the audience. It's incredible. And she's like, I saw her at a photo shoot. She goes, what? Yeah.
00:06:52
Speaker
She goes, yeah, she's pregnant. I'm like, please. Oh my god. I i loved any time they would cut to the audience because that they were just so, the cameraman was so shady. And she'd be like, yeah, like, clap if you think you're beautiful. And then everyone would be clapping and you're they're cutting to the ugliest people in the audience. And I'm just like, like, clap if you think it doesn't matter that you're balding. And then it's like, bald, bald.
00:07:23
Speaker
so funny um well you you have to it's like i didn't like jerry springer and i didn't like maury like i didn't like those shows really i loved wendy because i think she has a good heart she has a good heart like yeah she's kind of like stirs it but like that's the like i like that you know i love my problematic queen well and you know I know like these days the whole like um she's saying what everyone's thinking is like a loaded statement because that's how we got to certain places. But because some people think horrible things. But, you know, on the surface level, yeah she was like one of those girls where she's like, yeah do do we care about this? No. OK, moving on.
00:08:06
Speaker
denial is a river in Egypt. Your husband is gay. yeah So yeah, if it wasn't for me like re-binging stuff this week, yeah I wouldn't have known that that was her. Amazing. Oh, that's so good.

Speaker
ah No, it's okay. Don't worry about it. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, I was in Palm Springs last weekend. My friend Jeremy found that there was a tennis match there. It's like a Masters, I think. It's called Indian Wells, and it's like the U.S. Open. It's huge. The like top players in the world are playing there.
00:13:31
Speaker
And the ticket was like $60, so we went. It was so fun. Very white. exclusively almost all white the the story post was giving that I was like, damn, I'm walking around. There's everyone's in a visor, a comfortable, sporty shoe. What?
00:13:55
Speaker
Yeah, I was like, this is really just giving something here. But yeah, we got nosebleed seats for like the second stadium, which is one of the bigger ones there.
00:14:09
Speaker
Saw Djurkovic, Djurkovic. Jorkovich. My God. I was like, oh. He was like the number one in the world oh watch him play. And then we were like, let's go to like a different court like um to see. It's like the third biggest one. It's like a little smaller. Like, let's go see like the doubles thing there. So we like walk over there, sit down in the bleachers. And Jeremy's like, you know, like we should like there's more seats on the other side. And it's like closer to the court in the bleachers. Like, let's just go there like to, you know, and i'm like,
00:14:41
Speaker
Why not? Like, this sounds fun. We like go around the stadium. There's like a line to enter. some guy's just like, what's the password? We're like, what the fuck? I was like, what the fuck is this? Is this Eyes Wide Shut? What the shit is about to happen here? he I go, i so I mumbled something. He's like, all right, go.
00:14:58
Speaker
We go in there. We're like, oh, I guess we're at the bottom of the bleachers. Like, no, no, you're going into the section where like the coaches sit and like, you know, whatever the fuck. We're like by the court. We're literally like one row yeah before the court. Yeah. And we watched a full game and it was great these people are six, seven. There's a six, seven Russian guy playing. I was like his shoes bigger than my torso. Yeah. That man is giant. Oh, my God. So hot. And they kept moaning the whole time. I was like, literally, I'm like, I know a camera's capturing me because we're so close to the court. And my every my facial expression is like, ah like I was frothing at the mouth. And they because he's so tall, ah he could probably get across the court like so fast. There was four of them. It was a doubles.
00:15:45
Speaker
So was two Russian guys versus a Canadian and um and I think a Czech guy. Russian and Canadian. I'm telling you. I and it was like crazy because everybody was for the Canadian and the other guy.
00:15:59
Speaker
People kept saying their names like the audience was talking and there's like three Russian people who are like, go Andre in Russian or say something in Russian. I'm like, wow, like there's other Russian people here. Like that was cool.
00:16:11
Speaker
um It was really fun. And I've never sat that close to a live sporting event in my life.
Sports Interests & Emerging Games
00:16:21
Speaker
And it was crazy. They were so fast. They hit so hard.
00:16:25
Speaker
The ace, like, when they just, like, the other person can't even touch it. I was like, it's like 130 miles an hour, they're serving. my God. And the there's one guy that's in a doubles. There's one guy that's always crouched, like, kind of, like, ass out.
00:16:39
Speaker
Because I guess they're scared they're going to hit by the ball. So they crouch on the ground. So this guy's watching this. I'm like... I understand most likely they're straight.
00:16:50
Speaker
They're just doing their job. But my God, what an entertainment I get from this, that it has nothing to do with sports and all about being a disgusting, perverted little whore.
00:17:02
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. I'm like, this goes, they're going, ah. They're like moaning. I'm like, Jesus Christ. this I understand why people pay money to come to this. Uh-huh.
00:17:14
Speaker
They're exerting themselves. I would be too. I mean. If they would have just asked, I'd also be exerting myself. Yeah. Trust and believe. I'd exert myself all day in in Indian whales.
00:17:26
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Tennis is so hard. It's so difficult. so I just got pickleball paddles and that's about the the landscape I can get into. You're getting into pickleball? It happened? Yeah. Well, I've played a few times now. Okay.
00:17:44
Speaker
You like it? I do. I never, like, are you a sporty person? No. Not even a little bit?
00:17:53
Speaker
No. No. It's hard. let i will say this. Okay. Speak from excited. I'm excited for the my new pickleball paddles. I had to get one. I keep saying I had to get the acrylics. It's it's a, what do you call? Equipment. Fiberglass. That's the term.
00:18:14
Speaker
I was like, because I had wooden paddles I got from like, you know, TJ Maxx or whatever. But I needed like nicer paddles. And anytime I'd go with the boys to play pickleball, I'd They would be like, you can use one of my actual paddles, you know, gri how what professional grade.
00:18:34
Speaker
No, they're like fiberglass. I'll show you. um And I keep thinking they're acrylic. But um yeah, and it's like, you know, there's just it's it's ah easier.
00:18:46
Speaker
It's meant to be doing what it's doing, you know, it's not just like, look. Because I'm like wondering, I thought it was like big ping pong. No, I feel like it's more like racquetball.
00:18:58
Speaker
I don't even know what that is. Yeah, like, well, you know, I guess racquetball is against a wall, but um in terms of like how I feel when I'm like hitting the ball and what kind of paddle it is. ill yeah, I'll show you.
00:19:12
Speaker
Well, I'll bring my Batman to your birthday. Thank you. That's what I was going to say is like I also I feel like Batman and met whatever that word is something. Yes.
00:19:25
Speaker
Yeah. It's something that I can also get into and have done before. I'm bringing my goose feather birdies. Yes. And those are those are nice birdies.
00:19:39
Speaker
They're real goose feathers. None of that plastic shit. Aerodynamically speaking, they're better. But they you know they after like a couple of games, you have to get a new one because it's like all tattered and stuff. Oh, and then, yeah, so I got bocce balls.
00:19:54
Speaker
I've never played bocce ball. I love it. i I don't know why my my grandfather used to like pull it out in the backyard now and again. and like I it's so fun. It's like the same ah like dopamine hit that I get from like curling.
00:20:11
Speaker
Which we discussed we need to figure out a way for you to do in real life. I'll talk to my friend who does it. Even to just go to a place and like see it for a little bit and get a little tour or whatever. i'm i'm down for anything. I, for some reason, fascinated by curling.
00:20:26
Speaker
I think there's a good reason. Because the broom, that's why I, the broom.
00:20:34
Speaker
Really? For me, it's the broom. See, it's the broom is whatever. It's I think it's in why I like like my drag. OK, I like the broom. i Yes. Yeah. Yeah. yeah the I just don't feel like it's the only thing about it. That's like why it makes it cool.
00:20:52
Speaker
Shmi uses a broom. To wipe the poop deck. To wipe it. this is to wipe the the st To smear To Oh, my God. you think that's why he's called Schmear? Because he smears?
00:21:05
Speaker
Ew. Listen. and Okay. So, what was it? but Okay, broom could go fuck itself. what Why did you want No, broom is cool. But I think yeah i think the the magic of it is...
00:21:16
Speaker
ah In the broom, you're right. You know, the broom was like a whole object of contention I read. Yes. ah Slash I watched a TikTok video. um Not slash. I read an article slash it was a TikTok video. um Thank you for being honest. Yeah, I just, you know, I have to with you. love that.
00:21:35
Speaker
No one else. It's like Catholic guilt. Yeah, it's the Catholic guilt for sure. okay My beautiful Irish Catholic girl. Nothing. Uh-huh. I like the act of like rolling something or like, you know, having like, okay, this is your set thing of whatever. And you're getting it as close to that target. And like people are just taking turns trying to get to that
Game Creation: Skihole
00:22:00
Speaker
target. I like the sliding of these pucks for bocce ball. I like the whirling of the balls.
00:22:07
Speaker
You would think I would like golf in that way. and I'm like, I could give or take golf, like whatever. you're hitting it. You're not. Yeah, you're hitting it. It's slow. It's boring. This I feel like, yeah, just go. You know, it's like skeeball. Yeah, you like skeeball? I love skeeball. I like cornhole. you like bowling? Bowling. i like, yeah, the cornhole. I almost got cornhole. So it's rolling, throwing something, rolling something across the floor. You like the rolling of it. what's Yeah, yeah, that's, yeah and and you know, I even like darts.
00:22:36
Speaker
And I know that's, nothing I know that's more of this motion. Okay. But you're still like, everyone's taking turns trying to get to this target and we're just doing this. But the rolling, yeah, is like, seems to be exceptional. Is the target also part of it?
00:22:51
Speaker
um I think when it's like a set target, yeah. Okay. Because then I'm thinking like bowling makes sense. Ski ball makes sense. Curling makes sense. Darts also makes sense. But I think what's the thing about bowling that's kind of the outlier in the list. The shoes. Is the shoes.
00:23:10
Speaker
The fucking ugly shoes. um No, is that like you're not, we're not bowling into the same like pit of pins. Yeah. pins Whereas like with curling, with bocce, even with darts, like there's a chance that your throw could affect the other person's oh pieces the game. You like knocking people's pieces off the board. Yeah, like that's kind of cool too. Like like that when the US won their curling...
00:23:39
Speaker
whatever, against Canada. um I was like that. I watched that like clip of like the overhead of it a thousand times because then I was like, and it was like knockout, knockout, hit the dead center. And I was like, that is like.
00:23:54
Speaker
That's an amazing throw. What? I love, um I do love a cornhole. I love me cornhole. I like the idea of throwing something into a hole.
00:24:06
Speaker
Okay. Mm-hmm. Would you I feel like you'd be in you'd be down for this slash you would you're like smart in the way that you could probably help manufacture this with me.
00:24:18
Speaker
um I think we should like make a cornhole game. I want to actually do it for the birthday party, but I'm like, i there's no way we have to go to Home Depot and use a jigs jigsaw. So cornhole.
00:24:31
Speaker
cornhole There's just the one hole in the middle, right? Normally. Instead, have it be that panel is like ski ball where it's like the one, two, three and then the two on the sides.
00:24:43
Speaker
Oh, and you want to like try to get people to roll the ball into one. of them Well, you can still like do cornhole in the sense of you're like tossing it in. But you have these like, you know, you have like the 50, 100, 200, you know, on the side or something.
00:24:58
Speaker
And I think that's easy to make. You know, you can just get this panel, like cut these holes out. I literally almost was goingnna attempt to make like a really, you know, DIY version of it.
00:25:09
Speaker
But I feel like that's actually something that we could like make together and then try to sell it. We'd be like posting it here. Skihole. Hey, this is Skihole. Okay. I like Skihole because I was calling it. um Okay. It was...
00:25:29
Speaker
It's skee-ball and it's cornhole. I was calling it- Hole ball? Sky-hole? Or sky-ball. That's what I was calling it, sky-ball. I'll tell you this. I'll tell you this.
00:25:42
Speaker
I'm not helping you market sky-hole. It's just not going to happen. That thing sells itself, honey. That sells itself. Sky-hole? Everyone's buying one at Home Depot. Yeah. a Ski-hole is what you said.
00:25:59
Speaker
Sky hole is what you said. Yeah, but ski hole is what you said. I said ski hole. Yeah. OK, I like ski hole. I think ski hole is funny. Ski hole never crossed my mind. I have a keyhole. I fell into a keyhole while playing ski hole.
00:26:11
Speaker
It sells itself. Oh, my God. That's like the video. That's right. Basically, we're trying to market K, but we do it through a fun game at a birthday party. Each of the hacky sack things are filled with K. It's a baggie. It's a bagy it's like a clear Ziploc baggie. Yeah.
00:26:26
Speaker
Yeah. It's like the size of a um the thing you would toss in cornhole, but it's just clear clear Ziploc with powder in it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We got to make this happen. This is the funniest thing ever.
00:26:41
Speaker
This could be a whole bit. Thought of. And I think we should do it. but That'd be really fun at a birthday party. do i mean Do you want to make that for your birthday? Yeah. No, we can't. I mean, it's like in a week. but um But if you're like down i know, listen, I know.
00:27:00
Speaker
I know that we, I have said i was going to attempt to make like a Dom and Dommer sign. Okay. And it's been two years and I've yet to create this and I've created other things since then. This is the same thing where I'm like, I, if you're game, I'm like so down, and we got to make it happen. I feel like ski hole going to be, I mean, it's literally corn hole, but with a ski ball format. Perfect. Perfect.
00:27:31
Speaker
I love it. And if you... Even if like... You're like, okay, I think the best way to make this is using this material and that material. And then you and I just go to Home Depot together, get that stuff.
00:27:42
Speaker
Cut, cut, cut. Adhere, adhere. and All it needs is like... doom doom yeah dom All we need is... um
00:27:53
Speaker
Like hinges like the kind you have on the door. So the feet could come out. So it could stand. And then we need something to cut hole in wood. Because that would require a circular.
00:28:05
Speaker
so um Unless. Which we could borrow from Zach. Yes. Because he has like every tool in his wood shop. Yeah. um That would be helpful because we don't necessarily have to do it with wood unless we use like thin wood. Oh, we could. You want like a plastic, like a fiberglass. Fiberglass. Fiberglass. Or like, not that I guess it's kind of messy, but like the that like thick, hard foam that you can buy from Home Depot to like insulation foam. But it's like already like brick. Got it.
00:28:39
Speaker
I use that for stuff. But yeah. I would say we could use that, but we would have to put wood underneath it, like a really thin plywood. Because the foam is going crack when things fall on it.
00:28:51
Speaker
Also, too, for the hinges, yes the side pieces, it could be as simple as like almost like when you, you know how... ah
00:29:02
Speaker
the retractable tables like plastic tables or whatever it could just be two like poles that like close in and then come out because all you need is that one side propped up yeah exactly that's what i'm saying that that's the hinge thing so then you could put it back yeah work okay well thank you for coming on this journey with us we did it watch uh watch for our product hitting the shelves the following fall yeah summer of 2027 Do you and your friends tire of doing K by the pool?

00:31:04
Speaker
um yeah i mean you're right that's truly if i had a gift inside of me singing acting sport that was like superhuman good i would be a monster i would give myself permission to be the worst human in the world why because i can sing in five octaves why because i am Daniel Day-Lewis.
00:31:39
Speaker
would be the worst person in the world if I had even a smidge of genius in me for one for these types of skills. Like a virtuoso on a guitar. Like a shred on a guitar.
00:31:51
Speaker
I'm ruining everybody's day. I am ruining every... eye It is all about me all the time. Look at this. Every time. Yeah, you'd be like the person who's like singing in every bathroom. Jenna Maroney. I would be Jenna Maroney from 30 Rock. I would just, at any opportunity.

Speaker
Come on. Screaming. Crying, throwing up.
00:32:24
Speaker
um Well, thank God. Yeah. I'm talentless. Say it. Finish the sentence. Finish it. No, I mean i would not that. Shmi wants to hear you say it. was trying to think. I was like, what is the closest thing you are to being a genius?
00:32:40
Speaker
There's nothing. I don't know. there's nothing I think you are. There's nothing that I'm innately that like that level good. But i would say I'm very good. I'm a little bit of good at ah everything.
00:32:55
Speaker
That's what I am. I'm a little bit good at everything, but I'm not a genius at one fucking specific thing.
00:33:04
Speaker
All righty then. You heard it here first. You heard it here first. She's a little bit good at everything. Trapeze, ah handstands, cooking, cooking cleaning, emotionally available being emotionally available for other people.
00:33:19
Speaker
Well, no, you know, whatever. i think you're I think there's a spectrum of things. but Because you're really, you're you're even a bit more better than a little bit good with with but certain stuff.
00:33:37
Speaker
You know, this is why I want to go in business with you. That's right. Bring it back. Bring it back to what we care about, which was capitalism. That's why i want to go into business with you.
00:33:52
Speaker
yeah Yeah, because I, you know, I feel like You know how to manufacture things. i and Manufacture is not the right word, but it's the word I want to use right now. no, no.
00:34:04
Speaker
I'm very good at manufacturing. I three d print my ideas. I e-commerce them out. Yeah. You're like, the things that you make, I'm like, oh I would have gave up halfway.
00:34:18
Speaker
What are you talking about? You've been making Dungeons and Dragon boards that are like so hyper realistic with water features. Yeah. Yes and no, because i don't know. There's there are definitely some times where I'm like, I'm pushing myself like I was making that like ah but the circus tent and I was like, I don't know what I'm doing and I'm just running with it.
00:34:38
Speaker
um But I feel like you're you'll research stuff stuff more than I will. You will um really like go out in the ways that you're like meant to do something. Like when you were building stuff for Burning Man and like building outfits with lights in them. I was like, I would have done this like the the super wish.com way.
00:35:01
Speaker
And you were doing the couture. I was only doing, well, for that, it's like, ah I love lights on stuff. I like lights. I'm easy that way.
00:35:14
Speaker
so I was like, if I'm going to make it, and it this is going to probably cost a little bit because the lights are expensive. I'm like, I might as well learn how to do this. So that way. But I still fucked up. Like i I had a whole like I'm going to sew with um electric current thread so I could like program LED lights to do patterns and like do all this cool shit, which people have done.
00:35:36
Speaker
That shit was so hard because it's like an electric. I had to like do currents. Like, I don't know. And like if they can't cross. I'm like, I hate electric work. Yeah. i Love lights, hate electric work. Even the fact that you were like somewhat game to get into that. Like, that's not a place I would ever attempt. No.
00:35:54
Speaker
it's fun. I wish that, um, I wish this business still existed, but I wish I could do like prop building and stuff. That would be really cool. Yeah. I mean, it does still exist.
00:36:05
Speaker
Don't knock it. Um, and this is why, you know, cause I, I agree. I love that stuff. And,
00:36:14
Speaker
Here we are both working in post-production workloads. Where dreams go to die. Yet wanting to make props for a living.
Celebrity Guessing Game
00:36:23
Speaker
um And this is why we got to do things together and manufacture ideas together. that's what we should do. And then we should do a video how we made it.
00:36:30
Speaker
And we should show that we messed up sometimes. And sometimes it's okay to mess up and try it again. And people will love that. Let's try it. Why not? Let's do a little channel. All right. Well, we're going to go take a break and start building an empire of um prop manufacturing. And then we will be right back with a fun, lovely game that you'll be excited for. That we definitely thought of before and not just right now. Definitely now. Bye. Bye.
00:37:09
Speaker

00:46:05
Speaker
I was thinking some guy in Inglourious Bastards. Like I'm thinking that kind of face. You know, someone who would be like casted in that. Jewish. Just say Jewish. No, no. um Not Jewish. More like. Italian.

Speaker
Yeah. More like Italian or like just tanned white. Yeah.
00:46:29
Speaker
Yeah, keep going. Like kind of muscle-head-y in a way. Like he'd be also casted in like 300. Then you're thinking of Bobby Cannavale. oh Maybe a little, but even more white.
00:46:44
Speaker
More white? Yeah. Like a Chris Hemsworth? Yeah, but like maybe a heart but like maybe in his like 40s. Henry Cavill. that's He's a little too like muscular and like Superman looking.
00:46:59

00:47:13
Speaker
Leonardo DiCaprio. No.
00:47:18
Speaker
I yeah I would I would have to like kind of like start just sifting through male faces to feel like I know what your afternoon is gonna at a lineup like I've witnessed ah a murder and they're like these yeah i'm like um he kind of kind of looks like that but like if that guy had like this guy's other features do you think at a lineup they have you build the bad guy No, like they're showing me seven guys and I'm like, but it feels like three of these guys together, you know, visually in the face. So it's none of the people that are in the in the lineup, which is what the question is. what it feels like. Yeah. You know, that's what I'm like channeling. Amazing.
00:47:58
Speaker
It's like, oh, Adrian Brody, he's like that guy, but he looks like that guy. um Yeah. All right. Jeremy Piven. God, every time I think you're going to like say someone that I actually maybe know.

00:48:57
Speaker
Interesting. Mm-hmm. Okay. Okay. I think I'm someone better. Speaking of you know, ah one of the guys who died. um This man is not that old. Okay.

00:54:52
Speaker
And I would have guessed that by the fact that you thought she was a musician. Mm-hmm. Yes. Okay. Alrighty. That was fun. That was a mental workout. I really i hope you know i I am really trying. I know, and I love that. And that makes me feel like...
00:55:14
Speaker
Well, first of all, it makes me honestly feel like, well, I got I need more space in my brain for things that are important. Like I don't I seem to be remembering these things. And what are they good for? Except for like quizzing you. Yeah. But also just in life. It is. It is good to know that the industry.
00:55:29
Speaker
It's gotten me far knowing these random things. um I do want to ask you what you thought about the Timothee Chalamet thing. Because now I'm like, you made me think about it. It was funny because I heard about it before seeing the clip. And I was like, wow, that's like fucked up.
00:55:47
Speaker
And it's still fucked up, but the way he said it was like a little more casual than I thought it was going to be. so i Not that I'm giving him like a, like, oh, OK, whatever.
00:55:59
Speaker
But I'm like, the way he said it, he i don't you he literally says right after, he's like, no offense to that community. Which again, it's not like a pass. Which is why his grandma, his mom, and his sister all did ballet.
00:56:11
Speaker
Yeah, so I'm just like, ugh. But it it comes off douchey, and I'm like, oh whatever, if people cancel him. i I honestly, like, I heard that, and I went, why is this surprising to people?
00:56:24
Speaker
That's what I felt. I was like, why is it surprising to you that he does not value those things? Like has time and time again shown you that he cares about money and he cares about budget and he cares about the business side of entertainment. He's not your like little artsy like lover boy that you think he is because you watched him in call me by your name and you just like put this label on him as this like johnny depp kind of yeah guy yeah he wants to be in big blockbuster movies he wants to be like very famous and big and he like loves movies and
00:57:01
Speaker
that's like completely fine if that, but like, I think most people's anger comes from that. He's not this like art for art's sakes kind of guy, which like you would already have known if you paid attention to who he's dating, like how he speaks, how he markets movies. Like he was not hiding that about himself.
00:57:18
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Well also too, it's like, okay, I feel like a lot of people are getting real mad. And how many of y'all are going to to the ballet, the ballets, the opera, honey, you know,
00:57:31
Speaker
I mean, they could do better if it wasn't $300 a fucking ticket. Yeah. I tried to get tickets to go see the Disney at the Disney like house in downtown. The orchestra, the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
00:57:45
Speaker
The tickets are $300 for like the worst scene in the house. For like a Wednesday. yeah I'm like, what the shit? like I'm like, I would love to go listen to some classical music.
00:57:56
Speaker
I would love to. I'm priced out of it. I can't go see it. Like, what the hell? Yeah. Just going to see six. Yeah. A few weeks ago. That was two tickets was, I mean, 200 and something dollars. I was like, look, I think that people deserve to be paid. Like, I think that like people making this deserve to be paid a really good amount of money.
00:58:19
Speaker
i don't like argue that, but I think like we need sub them to subsidize these art projects like they do in england where they subsidize like plays so any play in the west end like their broadway you could see for 50 bucks they should like that's and then that way it's successful to everybody yeah yeah well the arts uh are definitely not at the forefront of of uh what's getting fixed anytime soon
00:58:53
Speaker
But it could be after Skyhole takes off.
