[TS]
00:02:36
◼

part of your brain exactly like you're
[TS]
00:02:37
◼
►
talking and light years and passing in
[TS]
00:02:40
◼
►
my brain
[TS]
00:02:41
◼

speaking of years passing happy 2016 and

[TS]
00:02:54
◼
►
infuriate you and I i went to sleep
[TS]
00:02:58
◼
►
no joke three minutes before the
[TS]
00:03:02
◼
►
changeover community here before this
[TS]
00:03:06
◼
►
thing is in our current apartment we
[TS]
00:03:08
◼
►
have a nice view to the sky in London
[TS]
00:03:11
◼
►
that we could theoretically see all the
[TS]
00:03:12
◼
►
fireworks are I say theoretically
[TS]
00:03:14
◼
►
because of course my wife did see all
[TS]
00:03:16
◼
►
the fireworks but 757 i was sitting on
[TS]
00:03:20
◼
►
the couch thinking I'm just too tired
[TS]
00:03:23
◼
►
just have people back went to bed okay
[TS]
00:03:26
◼
►
that is a bit sad they're not even just
[TS]
00:03:28
◼
►
fell asleep
[TS]
00:03:29
◼
►
fair enough but you actually consciously
[TS]
00:03:31
◼
►
said I cannot sit here for three more
[TS]
00:03:32
◼
►
minutes i am walking to my bed now
[TS]
00:03:34
◼
►
yeah i got into bed and I close my eyes
[TS]
00:03:37
◼
►
and I sort of heard the fireworks as i
[TS]
00:03:39
◼
►
drifted off to sleep almost immediately
[TS]
00:03:41
◼
►
I think that has to be a record for me
[TS]
00:03:45
◼
►
of the closest I have ever come to the
[TS]
00:03:48
◼
►
New Year's changeover without actually
[TS]
00:03:50
◼
►
making it to the other side
[TS]
00:03:51
◼
►
I mean that doesn't infuriate me that is
[TS]
00:03:53
◼
►
a bit tragic isn't it like to be so
[TS]
00:03:55
◼
►
close and you could have just had a look
[TS]
00:03:57
◼
►

[TS]
00:04:00
◼
►

[TS]
00:04:03
◼

00:04:04
◼
►
I think people i think it's becoming a
[TS]
00:04:06
◼
►
bit of a a trendy thing now to say our I
[TS]
00:04:08
◼
►
did nothing or I went to sleep and stuff
[TS]
00:04:10
◼
►
so I mean this is not uncommon now I
[TS]
00:04:13
◼
►
think people almost wear it as a badge
[TS]
00:04:14
◼
►
of honor to say oh I did nothing for you
[TS]
00:04:16
◼
►
you know New Year's so overrated so
[TS]
00:04:18

[TS]
00:04:23
◼
►

[TS]
00:08:02
◼
►
thing that constantly shift as you get
[TS]
00:08:06
◼
►
mmm i made of our I'm at a point now
[TS]
00:08:08
◼
►
where middle-aged starts in ten years
[TS]
00:08:11
◼
►
all the time right
[TS]
00:08:12
◼
►
it's like it's 10 years away and it's
[TS]
00:08:14
◼

and it's moving at one year per year
[TS]
00:08:16
◼
►
away from away
[TS]
00:08:19
◼
►
it would never be caught and it's not
[TS]
00:08:22
◼
►
getting closer either i feel that that
[TS]
00:08:26
◼
►
is intellectually dishonest but also
[TS]
00:08:28
◼
►
entirely understandable
[TS]
00:08:30
◼
►
Wendy believe it stats mr. rational and
[TS]
00:08:33
◼
►
narrative all 40 has to be middle-aged I
[TS]
00:08:38
◼
►
think that that's probably the best time
[TS]
00:08:40
◼
►
to put it and really 40 is being
[TS]
00:08:42
◼
►
somewhat optimistic because most people
[TS]
00:08:45
◼
►
don't actually live until 82 live
[TS]
00:08:48
◼
►
slightly younger than that so maybe like
[TS]
00:08:49
◼
►
39 maybe even 38 is middle-aged but i
[TS]
00:08:53
◼
►
think by the time you're 40 you there's
[TS]
00:08:55
◼
►
no there's no denying it anymore that's
[TS]
00:08:57
◼
►
middle-aged so you're defining
[TS]
00:08:59
◼
►
middle-aged to pick almost what it says
[TS]
00:09:02
◼
►
on the tin middle
[TS]
00:09:03
◼
►
yeah the midpoint of life I'm taking
[TS]
00:09:05
◼
►
this totally crazy path of assuming that
[TS]
00:09:08
◼
►
the word means what it means which is
[TS]
00:09:10
◼
►
the middle of of your age sea I think it
[TS]
00:09:12
◼
►
could mean different things and do you
[TS]
00:09:15
◼
►
count those first 10 years in your
[TS]
00:09:16
◼
►
equations and you know is that the
[TS]
00:09:18
◼
►
middle of your ad out life is that the
[TS]
00:09:20
◼

middle is it just the middle of the
[TS]
00:09:21
◼
►
number of days your heart has been
[TS]
00:09:23
◼

00:10:15

that you were the thing is you should

probably you should probably find
[TS]
00:10:34
◼

someone in middle age I'm just like the
[TS]
00:10:36
◼
►
general you not you but like you know
[TS]
00:10:37
◼
►
you dear listeners should find someone
[TS]
00:10:40
◼
►
middle-aged and ask them what they think
[TS]
00:10:42
◼
►
about that because you can't you can't
[TS]
00:10:43
◼

expect you late in the future it's just
[TS]
00:10:45
◼
►
like oh I could give advice to people
[TS]
00:10:47
◼
►
who were younger than me but it's hard
[TS]
00:10:49
◼
►
to give advice to people who are older
[TS]
00:10:51
◼
►
than me so yeah I think maybe we should
[TS]
00:10:54
◼
►
we should hear from our audience what
[TS]
00:10:56
◼
►
should people in middle-aged think
[TS]
00:10:58
◼
►
that's an interesting thing you just
[TS]
00:10:59
◼
►
said that I does advice only flow down
[TS]
00:11:03
◼
►
can young people not involved I mean of
[TS]
00:11:05
◼
►
course they can advise our people but
[TS]
00:11:07
◼
►
can young people legitimately advise
[TS]
00:11:10
◼
►
other people or can advise only flow
[TS]
00:11:12
◼
►
from the out to the young i'm thinking
[TS]
00:11:14
◼
►
in terms of general life advice
[TS]
00:11:18
◼
►
there's some term for it but it does
[TS]
00:11:19
◼
►
seem to be that people go through
[TS]
00:11:23
◼
►
different psychological experiences like
[TS]
00:11:26
◼
►
in sections of decades as they grow
[TS]
00:11:29
◼
►
older and I think for that kind of thing
[TS]
00:11:32
◼
►
you can only talk to someone who is
[TS]
00:11:34
◼
►
older than you want to who has gone
[TS]
00:11:36
◼
►
through it i was reading this article
[TS]
00:11:37
◼
►
which was talking about human happiness
[TS]
00:11:41
◼
►
over the course of life and how it does
[TS]
00:11:43
◼
►
seem to follow a u-shape that you're
[TS]
00:11:47
◼
►
happier when you're younger happiness
[TS]
00:11:49
◼
►
seems to minimize in the middle of your
[TS]
00:11:52
◼
►
life in the term middle-aged sort of in
[TS]
00:11:55
◼
►
your forties let's say and then after
[TS]
00:11:58
◼
►
your forties it goes up but that it's
[TS]
00:12:01
◼
►
very common for people in middle age to
[TS]
00:12:04
◼
►
have this feeling of oh is this all
[TS]
00:12:08
◼
►
there is to my life or like knowing that
[TS]
00:12:10
◼
►
it's unlikely that they're going to have
[TS]
00:12:12
◼
►
another big career changer or something
[TS]
00:12:14
◼
►
like that so I think for this kind of
[TS]
00:12:16
◼
►
general life advice
[TS]
00:12:18
◼
►
it can only flow downhill mm I think
[TS]
00:12:21
◼
►
like when I was in my twenties I went
[TS]
00:12:23
◼
►
through a kind of I think the cool kids
[TS]
00:12:25
◼
►
these days called a quarter life crisis
[TS]
00:12:27
◼
►
where I remember in my early twenties
[TS]
00:12:29
◼
►
having a real feeling of like oh god
[TS]
00:12:31
◼
►
what is going to happen with my life I'm
[TS]
00:12:33
◼
►
just unemployed and I have no idea what
[TS]
00:12:37
◼
►
I'm going to do and I feel like oh if I
[TS]
00:12:40
◼
►
was talking to someone in their 20
[TS]
00:12:42
◼
►
I might have useful things to say to
[TS]
00:12:43
◼
►
that person but I have nothing useful to
[TS]
00:12:45
◼
►
say to someone in their forties like I
[TS]
00:12:47
◼
►
wouldn't be able to necessarily advise
[TS]
00:12:49
◼
►
them I think they would need to talk to
[TS]
00:12:50
◼
►
someone in their fifties who would who
[TS]
00:12:52
◼
►
had gone through whatever they're going
[TS]
00:12:54
◼
►
through
[TS]
00:12:54
◼
►
do you think maybe it's not possible
[TS]
00:12:55
◼
►
that when you get older you sort of
[TS]
00:12:57
◼
►
forget things or you like you your your
[TS]
00:13:01
◼
►
hard drive and your gets so cluttered
[TS]
00:13:03
◼
►
with rubbish you you forget certain
[TS]
00:13:05
◼
►
things that can no longer access certain
[TS]
00:13:06
◼
►
things that the young people can and
[TS]
00:13:09
◼
►
they could sort of say to you know what
[TS]
00:13:10
◼
►
you should try this sickness and the old
[TS]
00:13:12
◼
►
person might say oh I forgot what it was
[TS]
00:13:14
◼
►
like to think like that and you're right
[TS]
00:13:16
◼
►
that is good advice that will help me
[TS]
00:13:17
◼
►
out of this situation we do know that
[TS]
00:13:19
◼
►
brains decay as time goes on that you're

[TS]
00:13:33
◼
►
someone has been through just as as
[TS]
00:13:34
◼
►
general life advice that you have to
[TS]
00:13:37
◼
►
talk to someone who was older I mean
[TS]
00:13:38
◼
►
yeah many your experience can only go up

[TS]
00:20:54
◼
►
spoilers okay what do you want to talk
[TS]
00:20:56
◼
►
about in the wake of a star wars episode
[TS]
00:20:58
◼
►
you know I've I've now been listening to
[TS]
00:21:03
◼
►
a few more reviews and podcasts and
[TS]
00:21:05
◼
►
things about Star Wars I'd I didn't
[TS]
00:21:07
◼
►
listen to anyone have anything to do
[TS]
00:21:09
◼
►
anything any until we recorded hours
[TS]
00:21:11
◼
►
yeah we intentionally both
[TS]
00:21:13
◼
►
didn't read any reviews or listen to
[TS]
00:21:15
◼
►
anything before recording our star wars
[TS]
00:21:17
◼
►
show because that kind of stuff can
[TS]
00:21:19
◼
►
influence your own thoughts and we we
[TS]
00:21:21
◼
►
wanted to go in pure to our recording of
[TS]
00:21:25
◼
►
the show but yes as soon as soon as we
[TS]
00:21:27
◼
►
had finished recording I too was like oh
[TS]
00:21:30
◼
►
boy now I can listen to all the other
[TS]
00:21:31
◼
►
podcasts about Star Wars I tell you what
[TS]
00:21:33
◼
►
great we needn't have bothered almost
[TS]
00:21:35
◼
►
every single one of us into so far Myers
[TS]
00:21:37
◼
►
will be an exact rerun of what we did I
[TS]
00:21:39
◼
►
was almost annoyed by how similar or
[TS]
00:21:41
◼
►
even all the phrasing was that's what
[TS]
00:21:43
◼
►
makes things interesting is to see that
[TS]
00:21:44
◼
►
this is a movie that has remarkable
[TS]
00:21:49
◼
►
consensus is that good like even when
[TS]
00:21:51
◼
►
the criticisms of the side like the
[TS]
00:21:53
◼
►
praise and the criticisms of the sign is
[TS]
00:21:55
◼
►
that the sign of a good film was a sign
[TS]
00:21:57
◼
►
of a safe boring film is that the sign
[TS]
00:22:00
◼
►
of a clever film I mean what-what do you
[TS]
00:22:02
◼
►
read into the fact that everyone feels
[TS]
00:22:04
◼
►
the same way about almost everything
[TS]
00:22:06
◼
►
maybe maybe you could say that it is an
[TS]
00:22:10
◼
►
indication of a bit of a safe film i'm
[TS]
00:22:13
◼
►
not sure that consensus is an indication
[TS]
00:22:15
◼
►
one way or the other
[TS]
00:22:16
◼
►
it is just a thing that with movies
[TS]
00:22:18
◼
►
sometimes across the spectrum people's
[TS]
00:22:20
◼
►
opinions lineup about our it's a good
[TS]
00:22:21
◼
►
movie or it's not a good movie or its
[TS]
00:22:23
◼
►
good movie except for this part so i'm
[TS]
00:22:26
◼
►
i'm not willing to say the consensus in
[TS]
00:22:28
◼
►
and of itself is is a bad or positive
[TS]
00:22:31
◼
►
indicator but it is it is remarkable
[TS]
00:22:33
◼
►
with Star Wars and I was super aware of
[TS]
00:22:36
◼
►
that as well like man every one of these
[TS]
00:22:38
◼
►
podcasts hitting the exact same points
[TS]
00:22:40
◼
►
yes I i'm not saying consent like if
[TS]
00:22:42
◼
►
everyone thinks the film is good
[TS]
00:22:44
◼
►
that's probably a sign it's a good film
[TS]
00:22:46
◼
►
but what I'm what the consensus that
[TS]
00:22:48
◼
►
kind of almost worries me a bit is that
[TS]
00:22:50
◼
►
the detail of it how everyone agrees on
[TS]
00:22:53
◼
►
everything
[TS]
00:22:54
◼
►
mm like it's it's almost a bit strange
[TS]
00:22:56
◼
►
and everyone is interpreting the same
[TS]
00:22:58
◼
►
things the same way and the same the
[TS]
00:23:00
◼
►
same little minor criticisms of the same
[TS]
00:23:02
◼
►
maybe it's a sign that we listen to the
[TS]
00:23:05
◼
►
podcast by people that are too similar
[TS]
00:23:07
◼
►
to us tonight but or it's just an
[TS]
00:23:08
◼
►
expression of the nerd mind in its
[TS]
00:23:11
◼
►
various places different people with
[TS]
00:23:13
◼
►
with different nerd minds like still
[TS]
00:23:15
◼
►
come to the same conclusions so anyway
[TS]
00:23:17
◼
►
the one thing that is starting to get on
[TS]
00:23:19
◼
►
my nerves a little bit and i know that
[TS]
00:23:21
◼
►
i'm a bit biased here because I did have
[TS]
00:23:24
◼
►
fine twist of Star Wars spoiled for me
[TS]
00:23:26
◼
►
but I don't think this is why i'm about
[TS]
00:23:29
◼
►
to say was I i'm getting a little bit
[TS]
00:23:31
◼
►
annoyed by this coat of spoiler
[TS]
00:23:34
◼
►
avoidance how people who manage to see
[TS]
00:23:37
◼
►
it without being spoiled and who didn't
[TS]
00:23:39
◼
►
watch any of the trailers and didn't go
[TS]
00:23:42
◼
►
on Twitter for eight months before the
[TS]
00:23:44
◼
►
film because they didn't want anything
[TS]
00:23:45
◼
►
ruined a kind of like speaking as if
[TS]
00:23:48
◼
►
they see the film through superior eyes
[TS]
00:23:53
◼
►
because they were pure and untainted and
[TS]
00:23:56
◼
►
i don't know i think they're coming
[TS]
00:23:58
◼
►
across like a bit karkash I feel like
[TS]
00:24:00
◼
►
you're talking about me because the
[TS]
00:24:01
◼
►
height of these things like I i know i'm
[TS]
00:24:04
◼
►
not what I'm going to keep talking in a
[TS]
00:24:06
◼
►
way that you might think i'm talking
[TS]
00:24:07
◼
►
about you but I'm not talking about you
[TS]
00:24:08
◼
►
hear her go but you may project onto you
[TS]
00:24:11
◼
►
and ok and the other thing is the people
[TS]
00:24:13
◼
►
who were doing at like some of the
[TS]
00:24:16
◼
►
extremes they went to avoid spoilers
[TS]
00:24:19
◼
►
like they stopped communicating with
[TS]
00:24:22
◼
►
their friends and and they completely
[TS]
00:24:25
◼
►
shut down the areas of their life like
[TS]
00:24:27
◼
►
you know social media parts of their
[TS]
00:24:29
◼
►
life and they went to these extreme
[TS]
00:24:31
◼
►
measures and if you are describing a
[TS]
00:24:33
◼
►
cult two of the things you would say
[TS]
00:24:36
◼
►
about people who have joined a cult
[TS]
00:24:38
◼
►
would be there real zealots and the feel
[TS]
00:24:41
◼
►
really superior about the thing they're
[TS]
00:24:43
◼
►
doing and they start integrity strangely
[TS]
00:24:47
◼
►
to their friends and cutting off their
[TS]
00:24:48
◼
►
friends and that's what these sort of
[TS]
00:24:50
◼
►
the code of spoiler people are doing i
[TS]
00:24:52
◼
►
think that like them up in this thing to
[TS]
00:24:54
◼
►
a few podcasts and like people that
[TS]
00:24:57
◼
►
constantly talking about they're talking
[TS]
00:24:59
◼
►
about how they avoid spoilers more than
[TS]
00:25:02
◼
►
they're talking about the film and I
[TS]
00:25:04
◼
►
don't think you have that superior and
[TS]
00:25:07
◼
►
experience like like not knowing is nice
[TS]
00:25:10
◼
►
and it's an and it's a nice surprise but
[TS]
00:25:12
◼
►
still saying the same film I can't even
[TS]
00:25:15
◼
►
remember if i do the twist of the Empire
[TS]
00:25:17
◼
►
straw empire strikes back when I saw the
[TS]
00:25:20
◼
►
film my can't remember if I already knew
[TS]
00:25:22
◼
►
the thing i would say because people
[TS]
00:25:24
◼
►
have been born I haven't seen Empire
[TS]
00:25:25
◼
►
Strikes Back and gray might not let me
[TS]
00:25:26
◼
►
know yeah but yeah but but when that
[TS]
00:25:29
◼
►
amazing thing happens in Empire Strikes
[TS]
00:25:31
◼
►
I can't remember if it was sport for me
[TS]
00:25:34
◼
►
or not but i still remember thinking
[TS]
00:25:35
◼
►
Empire Strikes Back was awesome
[TS]
00:25:37
◼
►
so I don't think you have to have sex to
[TS]
00:25:40
◼
►
see a film pure and virginal to enjoy
[TS]
00:25:43
◼
►
the film and I think all these people
[TS]
00:25:45
◼
►
who managed to avoid the spoilers
[TS]
00:25:47
◼
►
you know I'm happy for you and I'm happy
[TS]
00:25:49
◼
►
you enjoyed the film but get off your
[TS]
00:25:51
◼
►
high horse
[TS]
00:25:52
◼
►
I don't think cults normally have
[TS]
00:25:54
◼
►
definitive end points where you engage
[TS]
00:25:58
◼
►
in cultures behavior until exactly
[TS]
00:25:59
◼
►
someday and then oh ok
[TS]
00:26:01
◼
►
never again cult is a little bit it's a
[TS]
00:26:04
◼
►
little bit overblown here
[TS]
00:26:06
◼
►
well maybe it is a bit weird like yeah
[TS]
00:26:09
◼
►
but you're lucky that this this is like
[TS]
00:26:11
◼
►
a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon right
[TS]
00:26:14
◼
►
like I don't think this is going to be
[TS]
00:26:15
◼
►
even remotely as intense the second time
[TS]
00:26:18
◼
►
for the second movie when it comes out i
[TS]
00:26:20
◼
►
will and i'm sure other people will want
[TS]
00:26:21
◼
►
to avoid spoilers for the second movie
[TS]
00:26:24
◼
►
but i think it's just totally different
[TS]
00:26:26
◼
►
when it's the first one and it's been
[TS]
00:26:27
◼
►
you know a decade and a half since the
[TS]
00:26:30
◼
►
last I think this is just unique in your
[TS]
00:26:31
◼
►
life Brady so you never have to worry
[TS]
00:26:33
◼
►
about it again
[TS]
00:26:34
◼
►
m-most say don't let these cult members
[TS]
00:26:36
◼
►
bother you will say although you are one
[TS]
00:26:39
◼
►
of those people great can I just say you
[TS]
00:26:41
◼
►
are one of the less annoying ones you've
[TS]
00:26:43
◼
►
got your little peculiar things about
[TS]
00:26:45
◼
►
you and one of them was your your
[TS]
00:26:48
◼
►
spoiler avoidance with this film but you
[TS]
00:26:50
◼
►
weren't annoying i'm glad to know that
[TS]
00:26:52
◼
►
for you at least I was less annoying i
[TS]
00:26:54
◼
►
will just say in in defense of avoiding
[TS]
00:26:57
◼
►
spoilers for all kinds of movies that
[TS]
00:26:59
◼
►
the experience of watching thing with
[TS]
00:27:03
◼
►
knowing a little about it as you can is
[TS]
00:27:05
◼
►
different from all of the subsequent
[TS]
00:27:07
◼
►
watchings of a movie and i think that's
[TS]
00:27:09
◼
►
that's the thing that people are trying
[TS]
00:27:11
◼
►
to protect like of course you're
[TS]
00:27:12
◼
►
watching movie again when you've seen
[TS]
00:27:14
◼
►
the first time anything go like I really
[TS]
00:27:17
◼
►
like this movie and you pick up on
[TS]
00:27:18
◼
►
different things but there is something
[TS]
00:27:20
◼
►
unique about the first time that you see
[TS]
00:27:22
◼
►
a movie and if you can condense and
[TS]
00:27:25
◼
►
remove as much information from that
[TS]
00:27:28
◼
►
experience it's just a much better
[TS]
00:27:30
◼
►
experience and I said to you before I
[TS]
00:27:31
◼
►
like to do the same thing with books
[TS]
00:27:32
◼
►
especially like with on the occasions
[TS]
00:27:35
◼
►
that i read fiction i like to pick up a
[TS]
00:27:37
◼
►
book knowing almost nothing about the
[TS]
00:27:40
◼
►
plot and when you do that you discover
[TS]
00:27:43
◼
►
like how is just a different experience
[TS]
00:27:46
◼
►
that a lot of the setup
[TS]
00:27:49
◼
►
feels different than if you know like Oh
[TS]
00:27:51
◼
►
what the overall plot of the of the book
[TS]
00:27:53
◼
►
or the movie is I i agree with the
[TS]
00:27:55
◼
►
greater i agree with you and I would
[TS]
00:27:58
◼
►
always recommend someone to avoid
[TS]
00:28:01
◼
►
spoilers and I you know I avoided style
[TS]
00:28:03
◼
►
or spoilers and certainly for that the
[TS]
00:28:06
◼
►
day or two after the film had come out
[TS]
00:28:08
◼
►
and I hadn't seen that I I was a lot
[TS]
00:28:11
◼
►
more wary then I normally would be so
[TS]
00:28:13
◼
►
I'm not saying don't avoid spoilers i
[TS]
00:28:15
◼
►
guess the thing that I'm a little bit
[TS]
00:28:17
◼
►
funny about other people who are like a
[TS]
00:28:18
◼
►
bit snooty about it and I would be
[TS]
00:28:20
◼
►
preachy about it and if it pretentious
[TS]
00:28:22

[TS]
00:29:30
◼
►
this is really depressing you know but
[TS]
00:29:35
◼
►
there is something to be said as well
[TS]
00:29:37
◼
►
for the year of hype before film comes
[TS]
00:29:42
◼
►
out and it can be done in the right way
[TS]
00:29:44
◼
►
and I think a really good example of
[TS]
00:29:46
◼
►
that is Jurassic Park did like the very
[TS]
00:29:49
◼
►
first Jurassic Park i was in a frenzy of
[TS]
00:29:53
◼
►
excitement about saying that film lose
[TS]
00:29:56
◼
►
of all the all the hype and excitement
[TS]
00:29:58
◼
►
and B would happen and true they didn't
[TS]
00:30:00
◼
►
spoiler and they held back a lot
[TS]
00:30:02
◼
►
stuff and that and when you finally sort
[TS]
00:30:04
◼
►
of the dinosaurs most amazing but like I
[TS]
00:30:07
◼
►
wouldn't for the world want to have
[TS]
00:30:09
◼
►
avoided all the high on trailers and
[TS]
00:30:11
◼
►
stuff that preceded jurassic park
[TS]
00:30:13
◼
►
because that that's what made that film
[TS]
00:30:16
◼
►
such an amazing release when you finally
[TS]
00:30:17
◼
►
so are and I think if you avoid the hype
[TS]
00:30:19
◼
►
too much you sometimes miss out on some
[TS]
00:30:22
◼
►
of the experience of what Hollywood and
[TS]
00:30:24
◼
►
what made these is that how that whole
[TS]
00:30:27
◼
►
machine of excitement that comes before
[TS]
00:30:28
◼
►
a film like that machine can sometimes
[TS]
00:30:31
◼
►
be destructive and can give too much
[TS]
00:30:32
◼
►
away but other times it can really
[TS]
00:30:34
◼
►
enhance the experience
[TS]
00:30:37
◼
►
well without a doubt that human
[TS]
00:30:39
◼
►
happiness is increased by anticipation
[TS]
00:30:42
◼
►
and something like the Jurassic Park
[TS]
00:30:44
◼
►
movies there they were selling our
[TS]
00:30:49
◼
►
dinosaurs are amazing like they're going
[TS]
00:30:52
◼
►
to blow your mind and I need the first
[TS]

◼
►
drastic pot maybe I liked

[TS]
00:31:04
◼
►
couple years ago again and i was
[TS]
00:31:06
◼
►
astounded by how well the graphics held
[TS]
00:31:09
◼
►
up on like yeah believe this works like
[TS]
00:31:12
◼
►
I can see sometimes when they're using
[TS]
00:31:15
◼
►
puppets and when they using CGI but it's
[TS]
00:31:17
◼
►
just amazing how well some movies age
[TS]
00:31:19
◼
►
but but but that movie like when they
[TS]
00:31:22
◼
►
were advertising it they're going to
[TS]
00:31:24
◼
►
show you less of the dinosaurs because
[TS]
00:31:26
◼
►
the dinosaurs are what you're buying the
[TS]
00:31:27
◼
►
ticket for ya and also with that I have
[TS]
00:31:30
◼
►
the same feeling of I was really excited
[TS]
00:31:33
◼
►
for the the first lord of the rings
[TS]
00:31:36
◼
►
movies i remember back when I was in
[TS]
00:31:39
◼
►
college that they put out some little
[TS]
00:31:42
◼
►
tiny online postage stamp-sized video
[TS]
00:31:45
◼
►
featurette of some of the initial stuff
[TS]
00:31:49
◼
►
for lower the Rings like two years
[TS]
00:31:51
◼
►
before the first movie came out and i
[TS]
00:31:53
◼
►
remember watching that over and over
[TS]
00:31:55
◼
►
again where it was a
[TS]
00:31:56
◼
►
the director just saying how like it's
[TS]
00:31:58
◼
►
amazing we have the technology now to to
[TS]
00:32:01
◼
►
make this movie but both of those are
[TS]
00:32:03
◼
►
our are places where I can't even say
[TS]
00:32:06
◼
►
the spoilers because i've read the book
[TS]
00:32:08
◼
►
like the story exists in some other
[TS]
00:32:10
◼
►
place and so I think I like Jurassic
[TS]
00:32:13
◼
►
Park or lord of the rings are bad
[TS]
00:32:15
◼
►
examples for things that you can be
[TS]
00:32:17
◼
►
excited about because they say
[TS]
00:32:19
◼
►
pre-existed in some other place
[TS]
00:32:22
◼
►
yeah but they accept the excitement
[TS]
00:32:23
◼
►
there's how they're going to execute how
[TS]
00:32:25
◼
►
they're going to make it real right but
[TS]
00:32:26
◼
►
that's a totally different excitement
[TS]
00:32:28
◼
►
from what is the thing
[TS]
00:32:30
◼
►
yeah right whereas if if they had
[TS]
00:32:34
◼
►
released a star wars novel of the movie
[TS]
00:32:37
◼
►
a year ahead of time feel like I would
[TS]
00:32:39
◼
►
be a very different experience waiting
[TS]
00:32:41
◼
►
for the Star Wars movie
[TS]
00:32:42
◼
►
I don't think those things are
[TS]
00:32:44
◼
►
necessarily comparable grading can you
[TS]
00:32:46
◼
►
remember a film being spoiled for you
[TS]
00:32:49
◼
►
trying trying to think I'm i know i know
[TS]
00:32:52
◼
►
that i have had stuff spoiled or they're
[TS]
00:32:55
◼
►
just movies where I'm fully aware of
[TS]
00:32:57
◼
►
like oh I'm going to have a different
[TS]
00:32:58
◼
►
experience because I already know the
[TS]
00:33:00
◼
►
thing about it so it doesn't actually
[TS]
00:33:01
◼
►
came up on on boxing day we were
[TS]
00:33:03
◼
►
discussing but we didn't actually we
[TS]
00:33:05
◼
►
were thinking about watching gone girl
[TS]
00:33:06
◼
►
as a movie and that's an example of like
[TS]
00:33:08
◼
►
I already know the whole story of girl I
[TS]
00:33:10
◼
►
don't even know how i know the whole
[TS]
00:33:12
◼
►
story but somehow is entered into my
[TS]
00:33:15
◼
►
mind and so I'm just aware that like
[TS]
00:33:16
◼
►
okay I will watch this movie in a
[TS]
00:33:19
◼
►
totally different way than if I wasn't
[TS]
00:33:22
◼
►
already aware of the plot ahead of time
[TS]
00:33:24
◼
►
yeah so the N and but that's the case
[TS]
00:33:27
◼
►
where I don't really mind because i'm
[TS]
00:33:29
◼
►
not super invested in that we're has
[TS]
00:33:31
◼
►
actually when you talk about cult of
[TS]
00:33:33
◼
►
spoilers the worst I ever was with that
[TS]
00:33:36
◼
►
was avoiding spoilers for the wire
[TS]
00:33:39
◼
►
because I knew that someday i was going
[TS]
00:33:42
◼
►
to sit down and watch the wire but it
[TS]
00:33:44
◼
►
was never this day and so I spent years
[TS]
00:33:46
◼
►
and years like ripping out my headphones
[TS]
00:33:48
◼
►
whenever any podcast would suddenly
[TS]
00:33:50
◼
►
start talking about the wire happens
[TS]
00:33:52
◼
►
just very worried about spoilers for
[TS]
00:33:55
◼
►
this thing that I knew someday i was
[TS]
00:33:57
◼
►
going to watch i had spent years
[TS]
00:33:58
◼
►
avoiding spoilers for a thing that
[TS]
00:34:00
◼
►
already existed back just didn't feel
[TS]
00:34:02
◼
►
like watching it yet for so yeah so
[TS]
00:34:05
◼
►
that's probably the weirdest Behavior
[TS]
00:34:06
◼
►
I've had
[TS]
00:34:07
◼
►
I mean have you have any have any
[TS]
00:34:08
◼
►
massive spoilers
[TS]
00:34:10
◼
►
I mean a side of course from Star Wars
[TS]
00:34:12
◼
►
well yeah I've probably had some and
[TS]
00:34:15
◼
►
I've had others where I've avoided
[TS]
00:34:16
◼
►
things like yourself where I did that a
[TS]
00:34:19
◼
►
little bit with breaking bad link i'm
[TS]
00:34:21
◼
►
funny about with spoilers is quite often
[TS]
00:34:23
◼
►
sport if I have like pre-recorded a game
[TS]
00:34:26
◼
►
happens to me a bit with baseball and
[TS]
00:34:28
◼
►
sometimes some other sports that
[TS]
00:34:29
◼
►
football and Formula One is the classic
[TS]
00:34:31
◼
►
because I always watch Formula One races
[TS]
00:34:33
◼
►
a few hours after they actually happen
[TS]
00:34:36
◼
►
because they used Formula One races
[TS]
00:34:38
◼
►
usually happens on sundays and sundays a
[TS]
00:34:40
◼
►
day when i'm usually at about doing
[TS]
00:34:41
◼
►
things with my wife so I don't I can't
[TS]
00:34:43
◼
►
watch the race until the evening usually
[TS]
00:34:45
◼
►
so I i have to be really careful about
[TS]
00:34:48
◼
►
social media then because if I know who
[TS]
00:34:49
◼
►
wins the race
[TS]
00:34:51
◼
►
it really it makes the race very hard to
[TS]
00:34:54
◼
►
watch the funny thing with sport
[TS]
00:34:56
◼
►
spoilers is like a yankees fan right and
[TS]
00:34:59
◼
►
so if I go if I want to watch the
[TS]
00:35:01
◼
►
yankees game if I find out the result
[TS]
00:35:05
◼
►
and the Yankees win i'll still watch the
[TS]
00:35:08
◼
►
whole game really happily that if I find
[TS]
00:35:11
◼
►
out they lose i just watch but if I know
[TS]
00:35:13
◼
►
they're gonna win i will get just as
[TS]
00:35:15
◼
►
much enjoyment from watching the game as
[TS]
00:35:17
◼
►
as I would from not knowing the result
[TS]
00:35:21
◼
►
in fact sometimes I might enjoy it more
[TS]
00:35:22
◼
►
because even when they're losing i will
[TS]
00:35:24
◼
►
be miserable of you think about this is

◼
►

[TS]
00:35:37
◼
►
sword and and for example if I'm about
[TS]
00:35:40
◼
►
to watch the yankees game and it spoiled

◼
►

three hours of my life that I can do
[TS]
00:35:50
◼

00:37:57
◼

completely unsold at four people

00:38:03
◼

competition to see who can hit the

00:38:05
◼
►
bullseye basically it's just like it

[TS]
00:38:22
◼
►
okay so okay so listen you might be
[TS]
00:38:24
◼

thinking if you're unfamiliar with darts

[TS]
00:38:27
◼
►
that like there's a thing that's going
[TS]
00:38:29
◼
►
on and maybe it's much more interesting
[TS]
00:38:30
◼
►
game now
[TS]
00:38:31
◼
►
instead they're just trying to hit a
[TS]
00:38:33
◼
►
little little red rectangle that's just
[TS]
00:38:36
◼
►
a few inches above the bullseye every
[TS]
00:38:38
◼
►
time until the very end so they might as
[TS]
00:38:40
◼
►

Square above the bullseye
[TS]
00:38:52
◼
►
why don't they just aim for the goddamn
[TS]
00:38:55
◼
►
bullseye because it's a dartboard it's
[TS]
00:38:57
◼
►
just infuriating
[TS]
00:38:59
◼
►
I couldn't believe this i felt like on
[TS]
00:39:01
◼
►
the day when I finally explained the

00:39:21
◼
►
Oh dr. no is ok i was standing up at the
[TS]
00:39:24
◼
►
TV pointing to parts of the dark or the
[TS]
00:39:26
◼
►
TV so that you could understand it it's
[TS]
00:39:31
◼
►
just I just I could not I could not
[TS]
00:39:33
◼
►
believe the rule the rules of darts
[TS]
00:39:35
◼
►
I mean it was it was kind of fun to see
[TS]
00:39:37
◼
►
it on TV i'm not saying that like darts
[TS]
00:39:40
◼
►
is dumb like I always and I always like
[TS]
00:39:42
◼
►
that no matter what the activity is in
[TS]
00:39:45
◼
►
the world there's a group of people who
[TS]
00:39:48
◼
►
are super into the thing and to me like
[TS]
00:39:51
◼
►
that this is just the great thing about
[TS]
00:39:53
◼
►
the modern world is that no matter what
[TS]
00:39:55
◼
►
it is no matter how obscure your
[TS]
00:39:57
◼
►
interests are there's going to be a
[TS]
00:39:58
◼
►
group of people who are into a thing and
[TS]
00:40:00
◼
►
so aside from the actual rules of the
[TS]
00:40:03
◼
►
game which I thought were ridiculous
[TS]
00:40:05
◼
►
I didn't think it was fun to see that he
[TS]
00:40:07
◼
►
was up at alexandra palace in North
[TS]
00:40:10
◼
►
London but ally pally pally pally is
[TS]
00:40:14
◼
►
that what they call it
[TS]
00:40:15
◼
►

[TS]
00:40:16
◼
►
called le Vaillant a tally pally
[TS]
00:40:19
◼
►
yeah but I did love that there was like
[TS]
00:40:21
◼
►
this this arena for the darts players
[TS]
00:40:24
◼
►
and they had cheerleaders like big
[TS]
00:40:26
◼
►
lights and swooping cameras like I just
[TS]
00:40:28
◼
►
like that whole thing I do love i love
[TS]
00:40:30
◼
►
that this can exist in the modern world
[TS]
00:40:33
◼
►
but the fact that they're not aiming at
[TS]
00:40:36
◼
►
the bullseye they're aiming at something
[TS]
00:40:37
◼
►
just slightly north of the bullseye
[TS]
00:40:39
◼
►
every time that's in fury
[TS]
00:40:41
◼
►
you need to change that rule darts
[TS]
00:40:43
◼
►
please people don't go to Twitter or red

00:40:46
◼
►

►

[TS]
00:41:08
◼
►
through and you understand the targets

[TS]
00:41:11
◼
►
the game and and yours yes no it only
[TS]
00:41:14
◼
►
that it only matters at the very end you

[TS]
00:41:19
◼
►
to hit the same little rectangle and
[TS]

obviously watching frame-by-frame

00:44:40
◼
►
will be up when the podcast goes up

marry couple minutes maybe the whole
[TS]
00:44:47
◼

thing with a bit of hello Internet

as the inspiration for this little piece
[TS]
00:45:03
◼
►
of music
[TS]
00:45:04
◼
►
that goes with it so you can have a look
[TS]
00:45:06
◼
►
at that would be even harder to spot
[TS]
00:45:07
◼
►
your vote on that because obviously it
[TS]
00:45:09
◼
►
goes by the million miles a second

[TS]
00:45:41
◼

seconds because I did feel bad about how
[TS]
00:45:44
◼
►
many comments you were getting when I

00:45:46
◼

was like you put together a video with

thousands of cuts like it was it was

[TS]
00:46:04
◼
►
media and stuff but yeah that the
[TS]
00:46:06
◼
►
hazards that YouTube channels the place

◼
►
to go for people who do want to see some
[TS]
00:46:10
◼
►
postcards like if in full HD deluxe can

postcard relevant to the day so it's

◼
►

◼
►
to have to spend mailing them and

00:54:25
◼

dealing with other people's request and

[TS]
00:58:40
◼

postcard democracy so one more thing i
[TS]
00:58:42
◼

just want to mention about the
[TS]
00:58:43
◼
►
referendum which I quite enjoyed which
[TS]
00:58:48
◼
►
is that nail and gear one we had our our
[TS]
00:58:52
◼
►
preference distribution it was a
[TS]
00:58:54
◼
►
comfortable victory if not a landslide
[TS]
00:58:57
◼
►
yeah without a doubt it was a
[TS]
00:58:57
◼
►
comfortable victory yep just like in any
[TS]
00:59:02
◼
►
there's always opposition and I cannot
[TS]
00:59:07
◼
►
help but notice that the opposition
[TS]
00:59:09
◼
►
seems to have coalesced around flag flag
[TS]
00:59:14
◼
►
in a way that I think is really
[TS]
00:59:16
◼
►
interesting looking at all of the
[TS]
00:59:18
◼
►
discussions I don't see anybody who is
[TS]
00:59:21
◼
►
coalescing around the other versions
[TS]
00:59:23
◼
►
it's just but there's like strong
[TS]
00:59:25
◼
►
minority support for flag flag
[TS]
00:59:28
◼
►
interesting flag flag has developed its
[TS]
00:59:31
◼
►
own subreddit there's like a twitter
[TS]
00:59:33
◼
►
account that's promoting it i've seen in
[TS]
00:59:35
◼
►
a bunch of the conversations like flag
[TS]
00:59:37
◼
►
flag has definitely attracted its its
[TS]
00:59:40
◼
►
little subgroup and so my feeling on
[TS]
00:59:43
◼
►
this is like flag flag has become the
[TS]
00:59:47
◼
►
rebel flag of the hello Internet nation
[TS]
00:59:50
◼
►
like this seems to be what it really is
[TS]
00:59:52
◼
►
like the flag of the opposition is
[TS]
00:59:54
◼
►
flagging leg or the could've been like
[TS]
00:59:56
◼
►
that could you know though what could
[TS]
00:59:57
◼
►
have been the alternate history
[TS]
00:59:57
◼
►
have been the alternate history
[TS]
01:00:00
◼
►
yeah i just think it's it's it is really
[TS]
01:00:01
◼
►
interesting host election to see that
[TS]
01:00:04
◼
►
there is no discussion of the other
[TS]
01:00:06
◼
►
versions like that I don't see anybody
[TS]
01:00:08
◼
►
really like Oh club and claw forever
[TS]
01:00:10
◼
►
right now it's always flag flag forever
[TS]
01:00:12
◼
►
so I feel like flag flag is the
[TS]
01:00:15
◼
►
unofficial official rebel flag of the
[TS]
01:00:18
◼
►

thousandth of a penny to manufacture

that she got from starbucks and it
[TS]
01:03:52
◼

spilled everywhere out of the letters
[TS]
01:03:54
◼

like a simple heart stopper it would fix
[TS]

news for someone who makes videos about
[TS]
01:06:03

the periodic table such as you could
[TS]
01:06:05
◼

friend Brady oh yeah yeah for new
[TS]
01:06:09
◼
►
elements have been confirmed as official
[TS]
01:06:12
◼
►
the final four elements on the
[TS]
01:06:14
◼
►
conventional periodic table actually so
[TS]
01:06:17
◼
►
now the people who have been responsible
[TS]
01:06:19
◼
►
for synthesizing these elements have
[TS]
01:06:22
◼
►
been told
[TS]
01:06:23
◼
►
ok you can
[TS]
01:06:25
◼
►
name them so we're going to have four
[TS]
01:06:27
◼
►
new elements named probably within the
[TS]
01:06:29
◼
►
next few months I suspect
[TS]
01:06:30
◼
►
ok to questions 2 questions i can be so
[TS]
01:06:33
◼
►
these are the elements that previously
[TS]
01:06:35
◼
►
had those like onion kind of names
[TS]
01:06:39
◼
►
that's correct in fact i'll tell you
[TS]
01:06:41
◼
►
exactly where thats that if you let me
[TS]
01:06:42
◼
►
call this up so the elements are a
[TS]
01:06:44
◼
►
hundred and thirteen a hundred and
[TS]
01:06:46
◼
►
fifteen hundred and seventeen and a
[TS]
01:06:49
◼
►
hundred and eighteen just for people
[TS]
01:06:52
◼
►
listening about to enter chemistry or
[TS]
01:06:53
◼
►
just really quickly explain what happens
[TS]
01:06:56
◼
►
is it's not like someone has been
[TS]
01:06:57
◼
►
digging in the ground and has found new
[TS]
01:06:59
◼
►
elements with these really big elements
[TS]
01:07:01
◼
►
they like they can't hold together
[TS]
01:07:03
◼
►
they're too big and they just fall apart
[TS]
01:07:04
◼
►
in less than a second
[TS]
01:07:06
◼
►
so what they do is they create these
[TS]
01:07:07
◼
►
huge particle accelerator machines and
[TS]
01:07:10
◼
►
smash atoms into each other
[TS]
01:07:12
◼
►
billions and billions and billions of
[TS]
01:07:14
◼
►
times and then just occasionally a
[TS]
01:07:16
◼
►
couple will stick to each other they'll
[TS]
01:07:18
◼
►
hit each other in just the perfect way
[TS]
01:07:20
◼
►
and now stick for a second and
[TS]
01:07:22
◼
►
scientists can do certain observations
[TS]
01:07:23
◼
►
to say yet a hundred thirteen was their
[TS]
01:07:26
◼
►
existing for a second or so and once all
[TS]
01:07:28
◼
►
the I's are dotted and the t's across
[TS]
01:07:31
◼
►
this organization called I you pack
[TS]
01:07:34
◼
►
which is in charge of the periodic table
[TS]
01:07:35
◼
►
and stuff says okay
[TS]
01:07:37
◼
►
done deal he did the job now you can
[TS]
01:07:40
◼
►
give it a name so these four elements
[TS]
01:07:43
◼
►
which are the only for that don't have
[TS]
01:07:45
◼
►
names on the existing periodic table
[TS]
01:07:47
◼
►
until they make it bigger and put
[TS]
01:07:49
◼
►
another row on yea what I was gonna say
[TS]
01:07:51
◼
►
like looking at a picture of periodic
[TS]
01:07:53
◼
►
table right now and yea though there
[TS]
01:07:56
◼
►
were always these like gaps on the
[TS]
01:07:57
◼
►
bottom of elements that we know should
[TS]
01:08:00
◼
►
be there but RA yeah in theory you can
[TS]
01:08:02
◼
►
keep smashing protons together and so
[TS]
01:08:06
◼
►
you could imagine a periodic table with
[TS]
01:08:09
◼
►
an additional row we just never made it
[TS]
01:08:12
◼
►
that way because it wasn't sensible yeah
[TS]
01:08:14
◼
►
because you just you just had a whole
[TS]
01:08:16
◼
►
row of fantasy elements right right okay
[TS]
01:08:18
◼
►
but now they made they may do that and
[TS]
01:08:20
◼
►
of course there is also the the famed
[TS]
01:08:23
◼
►
and possible island of stability where
[TS]
01:08:26
◼
►
they think maybe at certain numbers
[TS]
01:08:28
◼
►
atoms can actually hold together for
[TS]
01:08:30
◼
►
some time so there may be some numbers
[TS]
01:08:33
◼
►
up high
[TS]
01:08:33
◼
►
maybe in the hundred thirties where they
[TS]
01:08:35
◼
►
don't just fall apart in a nanosecond
[TS]
01:08:38
◼
►
and but anyway that's not what we're
[TS]
01:08:39
◼
►
here to talk about the thing the thing
[TS]
01:08:41
◼
►
that I think is interesting as possible
[TS]
01:08:43
◼
►
names for these four elements and I mean
[TS]
01:08:47
◼
►
it is it is fantasy chemistry because
[TS]
01:08:49
◼
►
these are obviously going to be named
[TS]
01:08:50
◼
►
for are probably a lot more political
[TS]
01:08:53
◼
►
and national no I'm sure not sure not
[TS]
01:08:55
◼
►
known to have been a hundred and
[TS]
01:08:57
◼
►
thirteen is definitely going to have a
[TS]
01:08:59
◼
►
Japanese name because there's no
[TS]
01:09:02
◼
►
Japanese name on the periodic table and
[TS]
01:09:05
◼
►
this was discovered by a Japanese
[TS]
01:09:06
◼
►
collaboration so they're obviously going
[TS]
01:09:08
◼
►
to take their chance to name an element
[TS]
01:09:09
◼
►
after japan or something like that
[TS]
01:09:12
◼
►
japan IAM yeah well yeah it could be
[TS]
01:09:14
◼
►
anything you know the pony amor Narnian
[TS]
01:09:16
◼
►
or something
[TS]
01:09:17
◼
►
tokyo am and I but I I imagine that's
[TS]
01:09:20
◼
►
going to get a Japanese name but a
[TS]
01:09:22
◼
►
hundred and fifteen hundred 1719 are all
[TS]
01:09:26
◼
►
done by this sort of russian-american
[TS]
01:09:28
◼
►
collaboration so they have been showing
[TS]
01:09:32
◼
►
form recently if going down very
[TS]
01:09:34
◼
►
nationalistic grounds and i have on good
[TS]
01:09:37
◼
►
authority
[TS]
01:09:38
◼
►
this is this is a wink wink you know
[TS]
01:09:41
◼
►
possible Gaza that that Moscow vm is
[TS]
01:09:46
◼
►
going to be one of them
[TS]
01:09:47
◼
►
oh interesting but that's sort of just a
[TS]
01:09:50
◼
►
rumor doing the rounds over doing the
[TS]
01:09:52
◼
►
rounds in the chemistry community
[TS]
01:09:54
◼
►
let's go p.m. sounds good it's a good
[TS]
01:09:56
◼
►
name it does sound good to be fair but
[TS]
01:09:58
◼
►
the Germans who synthesized a lot of
[TS]
01:10:01
◼
►
elements they've recently named an
[TS]
01:10:02
◼
►
element carbonates IAM after Copernicus
[TS]
01:10:04
◼
►
and they could have named planky amor
[TS]
01:10:07
◼
►
named after a German but they didn't
[TS]
01:10:09
◼
►
they named after Copernicus so there is
[TS]
01:10:12
◼
►
hit there is precedent for people saying
[TS]
01:10:15
◼
►
you know what let's be big about this
[TS]
01:10:17
◼
►
and named after someone that deserves a
[TS]
01:10:19
◼
►
rather than just being nationalistic if
[TS]
01:10:22
◼
►
it was up to you if if the queen of
[TS]
01:10:24
◼
►
diamonds was given the authority to name
[TS]
01:10:26
◼
►
an element how is it become the queen of
[TS]
01:10:29
◼
►
diamonds is the title as opposed to the
[TS]
01:10:30
◼
►
playing card that i am but when this
[TS]
01:10:35
◼
►
which happen i don't even know that when
[TS]
01:10:38
◼
►
did anything happen with already
[TS]
01:10:39
◼
►
elements any people or places or things
[TS]
01:10:41
◼
►
you'd like to see honored because I
[TS]
01:10:43
◼
►
think being honored with the name of an
[TS]
01:10:44
◼
►
element that I mean that's bigger than a
[TS]
01:10:46
◼
►
Nobel Prize I think that's like that's
[TS]
01:10:48
◼
►
massive
[TS]
01:10:49
◼
►
would you rather have an element's named
[TS]
01:10:52
◼
►
after you or would you rather have the
[TS]
01:10:54
◼
►
million francs of the Nobel Prize and
[TS]
01:10:56
◼
►
the Nobel Prize element named after me
[TS]
01:10:58
◼
►
really yeah really interesting what
[TS]
01:11:01
◼
►
about you
[TS]
01:11:02
◼
►
uh yeah i think i just i take the money
[TS]
01:11:07
◼
►
and the the career opportunities that
[TS]
01:11:11
◼
►
Nobel Prize would afford what you don't
[TS]
01:11:13
◼
►
think being the only living person with
[TS]
01:11:15
◼
►
an element named after you because
[TS]
01:11:16
◼
►
elements can only be named after dead
[TS]
01:11:18
◼
►
people according to the Rose you don't
[TS]
01:11:20
◼
►
think being a living person an element
[TS]
01:11:21
◼
►
named after you wouldn't provide
[TS]
01:11:22
◼
►
marketing opportunities not very many
[TS]
01:11:25
◼
►
not very many no yeah yeah okay maybe
[TS]
01:11:28
◼
►
around like that so that's the kind of
[TS]
01:11:30
◼
►
thing that's like out this is an
[TS]
01:11:32
◼
►
interesting piece of trivia at a party
[TS]
01:11:34
◼
►
but if I have a career where I've I've
[TS]
01:11:36
◼
►
won a Nobel Prize and i also have the
[TS]
01:11:39
◼
►
million francs this is this is something
[TS]
01:11:40
◼
►
is something that means something to me
[TS]
01:11:42
◼
►
but the periodic table is immortality
[TS]
01:11:45
◼
►
mmm there is someone who was asked that
[TS]
01:11:47
◼
►
question who had both honors and that
[TS]
01:11:50
◼
►
was Glenn Seaborg seaborgium was named
[TS]
01:11:52
◼
►
after him it was named after him while
[TS]
01:11:54
◼
►
he was alive which was an exception
[TS]
01:11:55
◼
►
uh-huh and he won a Nobel Prize and he
[TS]
01:11:58
◼
►
said having the element named after him
[TS]
01:12:00
◼
►
meant more to him and was the greater
[TS]
01:12:02
◼
►
well yeah but he's also he was also a
[TS]
01:12:04
◼
►
chemist think it's a bit severe I'm not
[TS]
01:12:06
◼
►
a chemist and yes sorry chemistry but
[TS]
01:12:10
◼
►
you were always one of my least favorite
[TS]
01:12:11
◼
►
sciences I was never very good at
[TS]
01:12:12
◼
►
chemistry I i found it to be boring
[TS]
01:12:16
◼
►
stamp collecting as all physicists do
[TS]
01:12:18
◼
►
cancer that's why I like a periodic
[TS]
01:12:21
◼
►
ok I'll take the money is what i will do
[TS]
01:12:23
◼
►
a before before i get a million tweets
[TS]
01:12:26
◼
►
from everybody I have in my old age now
[TS]
01:12:29
◼
►
load in my thoughts on chemistry and not
[TS]
01:12:31
◼
►
much more fun with it now that I used to
[TS]
01:12:33
◼
►
please please don't send me do three
[TS]
01:12:36
◼
►
like are you need to understand how
[TS]
01:12:37
◼
►
important chemistry is it's like yeah I
[TS]
01:12:38
◼
►
get it I get it
[TS]
01:12:40
◼
►
he used to be a real jerk about it well
[TS]
01:12:43
◼
►
that well that's said any thoughts about
[TS]
01:12:45
◼
►
names developments anything
[TS]
01:12:47
◼
►
well so here's the problem because
[TS]
01:12:49
◼
►
chemistry is not my strong suit I've I
[TS]
01:12:52
◼
►
would have a hard time coming up with a
[TS]
01:12:54
◼
►
chemistry person
[TS]
01:12:57
◼
►
who is not already honored on the
[TS]
01:12:59
◼
►
periodic table or Copernicus wasn't a
[TS]
01:13:02
◼
►
chemist this decision was just taken
[TS]
01:13:03
◼
►
that he was a great man of science and
[TS]
01:13:05
◼
►
deserve to be honored on this icon of
[TS]
01:13:06
◼
►
science
[TS]
01:13:07
◼
►
yeah I can see that copernic come and
[TS]
01:13:10
◼
►
that's not a great name
[TS]
01:13:11
◼
►
it's not a great i think people tend to
[TS]
01:13:13
◼
►
say carbonate see him go copernicium mmm
[TS]
01:13:16
◼
►
i think this is like the americium which
[TS]
01:13:18
◼
►
I was thought was America like it's a
[TS]
01:13:19
◼
►
terrible name for this American that's
[TS]
01:13:23
◼
►
let me see me in that region you know
[TS]
01:13:26
◼
►
yeah but i'm thinking of scientists of
[TS]
01:13:30
◼
►
course my favorite scientist is fine men
[TS]
01:13:32
◼
►
well this is one that comes up a lot
[TS]
01:13:33
◼
►
fine medium is discussed a lot as a
[TS]
01:13:35
◼
►
possible name was not a hundred percent
[TS]
01:13:37
◼
►
sure actually if you had one of the
[TS]
01:13:39
◼
►
crazy elements at the end but i think
[TS]
01:13:41
◼
►
i'm confusing it with what it's a
[TS]
01:13:43
◼
►
hundred as fermium formulas the yeah
[TS]
01:13:46
◼
►
that's Enrico Fermi right that's because
[TS]
01:13:48
◼
►
we have that who are actual science
[TS]
01:13:50
◼
►
hasn't we've got curium alright we've
[TS]
01:13:53
◼
►
got mine Stein IAM yeah fermium
[TS]
01:13:55
◼
►
mendelevium what else is there i'm
[TS]
01:14:00
◼
►
trying to sleep organ of course
[TS]
01:14:02
◼
►
seaborgium I don't think I actually
[TS]
01:14:04
◼
►
realized until your story was a person
[TS]
01:14:06
◼
►
nobelium nobelium lawrencium how you're
[TS]
01:14:11
◼
►
good at this lawrencium carbon after mr.
[TS]
01:14:14
◼
►
carbon it going after every gold from
[TS]
01:14:19
◼
►
entourage right now so I'm out apps
[TS]
01:14:25
◼
►
silver after David silver from Beverly
[TS]
01:14:27
◼
►
Hills now today we go in deep now so
[TS]
01:14:34
◼
►
yeah i mean i don't know i think but but
[TS]
01:14:36
◼
►
the problem is that I I just like
[TS]
01:14:39
◼
►
Fineman and no small part because of his
[TS]
01:14:41
◼
►
books and his stories and is just
[TS]
01:14:43
◼
►
incredible captivating way of talking
[TS]
01:14:46
◼
►
like I've seen all of the videos have of
[TS]
01:14:48
◼
►
him talking and listen to his physics
[TS]
01:14:49
◼
►
lectures and everything in a big firemen
[TS]
01:14:51
◼

fan i don't know if i was a serious
[TS]
01:14:53
◼
►
scientist and sitting down and thinking
[TS]
01:14:55
◼
►
like wow I have the responsibility of
[TS]
01:14:57
◼
►
coming up with the element named what am
[TS]
01:14:59
◼
►
I going to pick i don't know if i would
[TS]
01:15:01
◼
►
pick Fineman companies IAM is more
[TS]
01:15:05

possible because it's just like Oh a
[TS]
01:15:08
◼
►
great man of science from a long time
[TS]
01:15:11
◼
►
seems very different to me than a modern
[TS]
01:15:12
◼
►
physicist yeah I can't explain it very
[TS]
01:15:15
◼
►
well but it just seems right in my mind
[TS]
01:15:17
◼
►
that that's yeah I think Isaac Newton
[TS]
01:15:19
◼
►
Isaac Newton it's not on the periodic
[TS]
01:15:22
◼
►
yeah yeah and it feels like he shouldn't
[TS]
01:15:24
◼
►
be now you're on the Kenai dimension
[TS]
01:15:27
◼
►
can I just mention one other scientists
[TS]
01:15:29
◼
►
that we forgot to mention having an
[TS]
01:15:30
◼
►
element named after them
[TS]
01:15:31
◼
►
yeah and that is Lisa Meitner and mine
[TS]
01:15:34
◼
►
area and the only reason i want to
[TS]
01:15:36
◼
►
mention that is because she was
[TS]
01:15:37
◼
►
absolutely snubbed for the Nobel Prize
[TS]
01:15:40
◼
►
when she shouldn't have been and the one
[TS]
01:15:42
◼
►
saving grace was they named an element
[TS]
01:15:44
◼
►
after her to make it up for her and if
[TS]
01:15:46
◼
►
we then forgot to mention a little bit
[TS]
01:15:47
◼
►
named after her it would have been like
[TS]
01:15:49
◼
►
deliciously ironic that she got
[TS]
01:15:51
◼
►
forgotten again so i want to mention
[TS]
01:15:53
◼
►
Lisa might now it's like that's a 1099
[TS]
01:15:57
◼
►
Miriam minor more I don't know
[TS]
01:15:59
◼
►
yeah you're right is Boreum rather 40m
[TS]
01:16:02
◼
►
of quarterbacks this whole bunch that
[TS]
01:16:05
◼
►
we're missing our bad
[TS]
01:16:06
◼
►
yeah but we're joking about silver at a
[TS]
01:16:12
◼
►
stop stop screaming at the podcast
[TS]
01:16:14
◼
►
yeah i think all the gamers have checked
[TS]
01:16:16
◼
►
out by now but what about You Brady what
[TS]
01:16:19
◼
►
do you think what do you think for the
[TS]
01:16:20
◼
►
names do you know what I asked you
[TS]
01:16:22
◼
►
earlier to come up with some suggestions
[TS]
01:16:24
◼
►
and yeah I have really going to get my
[TS]
01:16:26
◼
►
hope my fuckin I kind of like it when
[TS]
01:16:28
◼
►
they named them and I what I quite like
[TS]
01:16:32
◼
►
them being named after places sometimes
[TS]
01:16:34
◼
►
but there's not many American places
[TS]
01:16:36
◼
►
left though the San Francisco am but
[TS]
01:16:40
◼
►
I've gotta Kelly I'm named after
[TS]
01:16:41
◼
►
berkeley that I was saying San Francisco
[TS]
01:16:43
◼
►
Liam and I've got californium the one
[TS]
01:16:46
◼
►
place that has been involved with this
[TS]
01:16:47
◼
►
that hasn't been acknowledged is the
[TS]
01:16:51
◼
►
facility at oakridge in Tennessee
[TS]
01:16:54
◼
►
I mean could we get Tennessee neum I
[TS]
01:16:57
◼
►
don't know
[TS]
01:16:58
◼
►
tinium I don't know how to go i mean i
[TS]
01:17:00
◼
►
like i like the sound of plane qiyam and
[TS]
01:17:03
◼
►
I think max planck was a pretty spot-on
[TS]
01:17:04
◼
►
scientist and his clothes close-ish to
[TS]
01:17:07
◼
►
chemistry
[TS]
01:17:08
◼
►
sort of yeah but then you know I have a
[TS]
01:17:10
◼
►
Japanese Russians or Americans going to
[TS]
01:17:13
◼
►
honor max planck to doubt it
[TS]
01:17:15
◼
►
you know what we should go in a
[TS]
01:17:16
◼
►
radically different way here hmm why
[TS]
01:17:19
◼
►
don't we just left with somehow we're in
[TS]
01:17:21
◼
►
charge now is in my mind okay
[TS]
01:17:23
◼
►
visit this is flipped his staff and I
[TS]
01:17:26
◼
►
think with an idea and suddenly decided
[TS]
01:17:28
◼
►
on the garage
[TS]
01:17:29
◼
►
hey we've got a postbox let's haven't
[TS]
01:17:31
◼
►
decided to post guards yeah why don't we
[TS]
01:17:34
◼
►
just come up with new names like why
[TS]
01:17:37
◼
►
does it doesn't have to be named after
[TS]
01:17:38
◼
►
something like something like there's so
[TS]
01:17:40
◼
►
many of the elements that the name is
[TS]
01:17:42
◼
►
just what it is like yeah just call it
[TS]
01:17:44
◼
►
like a result
[TS]
01:17:47
◼
►
well yeah but its general zod from
[TS]
01:17:48
◼
►
Superman which might not be might not be
[TS]
01:17:50
◼
►
the best choice but i hate probably he
[TS]
01:17:52
◼
►
probably hasn't done enough to have an
[TS]
01:17:54
◼
►
element named after him at the stage now
[TS]
01:17:56
◼
►
he has yeah okay although his viral
[TS]
01:17:59
◼
►
video of being an angry college sorority
[TS]
01:18:02
◼
►
girl was very good but probably not not
[TS]
01:18:05
◼
►
periodic table where they are exactly
[TS]
01:18:07
◼
►
not yet yeah very good be Becky I'm
[TS]
01:18:10
◼
►
would be his element there like the
[TS]
01:18:13
◼
►
early names of the elements oxygen
[TS]
01:18:16
◼
►
helium carbon nitrogen aluminum silver
[TS]
01:18:20
◼
►
these are these are words that means
[TS]
01:18:22
◼
►
something because they're just the
[TS]
01:18:23
◼
►
sequence of sounds that are an element
[TS]
01:18:26
◼
►
why don't we just come up with another
[TS]
01:18:27
◼
►
sequence of sounds are plenty of unused
[TS]
01:18:29
◼
►
sequence of sounds I think this is a
[TS]
01:18:31
◼
►
radical direction that we need to go but
[TS]
01:18:33
◼
►
I think that's what I'm coming down know
[TS]
01:18:35
◼
►
why I standardized at the way they have
[TS]
01:18:37
◼
►
there must be a reason that these mDM's
[TS]
01:18:39
◼
►
maybe it's just like just to make them
[TS]
01:18:42
◼
►
obviously elements but but I i'm
[TS]
01:18:45
◼
►
thinking we need we need something else
[TS]
01:18:46
◼
►
that's like a gold right just a word
[TS]
01:18:49
◼
►
there is unused sounds inventing words
[TS]
01:18:52
◼
►
as as a now famous inventor of words
[TS]
01:18:55
◼
►
right i can tell you your profession
[TS]
01:18:56
◼
►
hear ya inventing words it's not easy
[TS]
01:18:59
◼
►
that was it yeah but see you are playing
[TS]
01:19:02
◼
►
the game on hard mode where you're
[TS]
01:19:04
◼
►
trying to come up with word that you
[TS]
01:19:05
◼
►
want to have spread throughout the
[TS]
01:19:07
◼
►
general population whereas most people
[TS]
01:19:10
◼
►
are never going to be casually referring
[TS]
01:19:13
◼
►
to element 113 in their conversations so
[TS]
01:19:17
◼
►
you don't have to play that game you
[TS]
01:19:19
◼
►
just have to say listen with where the
[TS]
01:19:22
◼
►
people deciding the names for the
[TS]
01:19:24
◼
►
periodic tables and it is such that 1 13
[TS]
01:19:27
◼
►
is now this sequence of sounds you can
[TS]
01:19:29
◼
►
just declare it so it's so much easier
[TS]
01:19:31
◼
►
way to do it this way
[TS]
01:19:34
◼
►
and I have to be catching that I think I
[TS]
01:19:36
◼
►
think we need just arbitrary sequences
[TS]
01:19:38
◼
►
of sounds for these developments that
[TS]
01:19:41
◼
►
might as well enjoy discussing it but
[TS]
01:19:43
◼
►
obviously that's ridiculous not gonna
[TS]
01:19:44
◼
►
happen to me but it's not a ridiculous
[TS]
01:19:46
◼
►
idea though it's not no it not a
[TS]
01:19:50
◼
►
ridiculous ideas no it's not ridiculous
[TS]
01:19:51
◼
►
it would be unfair to call the
[TS]
01:19:53
◼
►
ridiculous
[TS]
01:19:54
◼
►
yeah exactly it's a good idea it's not
[TS]
01:19:57
◼
►
very workable do the scientists have the
[TS]
01:19:59
◼
►
final say about what the name is going
[TS]
01:20:01
◼
►
to be if so i hope they listen to this
[TS]
01:20:03
◼
►
podcast with the Japanese people should
[TS]
01:20:05
◼
►
just go freestyle on site has to be a
[TS]
01:20:07
◼
►
Japanese character
[TS]
01:20:08
◼
►
yeah that would be great yeah okay i
[TS]
01:20:12
◼
►
would actually really like it if they do
[TS]
01:20:15
◼
►
japanese team you know what you have to
[TS]
01:20:16
◼
►
do just hang out there at the bottom of

fan of listening to nonfiction
[TS]
01:21:02
◼

audiobooks in this way which brings me
[TS]
01:21:04
◼
►
to the book that i'm going to suggest
[TS]
01:21:06
◼
►
for this audible add now in the next
[TS]
01:21:09
◼
►
episode of Hello internet Brady and I
[TS]
01:21:11
◼
►
are going to discuss a little bit
[TS]
01:21:13
◼
►
Guns Germs and Steel so this isn't this
[TS]
01:21:16
◼
►
isn't a homework assignment it's not
[TS]
01:21:18
◼
►
required that you listened to Guns Germs
[TS]
01:21:20
◼
►
and Steel before that episode but if you
[TS]
01:21:23
◼
►
want to be absolutely on top of every
[TS]
01:21:26
◼
►
detail of the conversation you might
[TS]
01:21:28
◼
►
want to download Guns Germs and Steel
[TS]
01:21:30
◼
►
from audible now two things about this
[TS]
01:21:34
◼
►
suggestion first this is one of the rare
[TS]
01:21:37
◼
►
times when I'm actually happy to
[TS]
01:21:39
◼
►
recommend the abridged version of the
[TS]
01:21:42
◼
►
audiobook now of course audible because
[TS]
01:21:44
◼
►
they have
[TS]
01:21:45
◼
►
everything they have the full version
[TS]
01:21:46
◼
►
which is something like 16 hours long
[TS]
01:21:49
◼
►
but they also have the abridged version
[TS]
01:21:51
◼
►
and in my perspective jared diamond is a
[TS]
01:21:55
◼
►
little repetitive sometimes and has lots
[TS]
01:22:00
◼
►
and lots of additional details so i
[TS]
01:22:03
◼
►
think the abridged version is the one to
[TS]
01:22:07
◼
►
and secondly if you do start listening
[TS]
01:22:09
◼
►
as with other books that i've
[TS]
01:22:10
◼
►
recommended in the past I have a bit of
[TS]
01:22:12
◼
►
a suggestion of where to start you want
[TS]
01:22:14
◼
►
to begin with the prologue which sets up
[TS]
01:22:16
◼
►
this whole notion of yoli's question
[TS]
01:22:18
◼
►
which is kind of the fundamental
[TS]
01:22:20
◼
►
question of the book but when you're
[TS]
01:22:21
◼
►
listening to the prologue is going to
[TS]
01:22:23
◼
►
come some point where you zone out for a
[TS]
01:22:25
◼
►
moment and that's Jared Diamond becoming
[TS]
01:22:26
◼
►
very Jared Diamond D at that moment my
[TS]
01:22:28
◼
►
suggestion is you just open up your
[TS]
01:22:31
◼
►
audible app and jump forward to two
[TS]
01:22:34
◼
►
hours 8 minutes and 30 seconds that will
[TS]
01:22:37
◼
►
bring you to chapter 6 which is called
[TS]
01:22:39
◼
►
how to make an almond the previous two
[TS]
01:22:42
◼
►
hours in case you're wondering is
[TS]
01:22:43
◼
►
basically the setup of at 10,000 years
[TS]
01:22:46
◼
►
ago humans lived everywhere and had
[TS]
01:22:49
◼
►
roughly the same level of technology
[TS]
01:22:50
◼
►
everywhere
[TS]
01:22:51
◼
►
that's all you missed so that's my

►

◼
►
it through the holidays without gaining

01:23:51
◼
►
weight I think I must have put a bit on

◼
►
trying to stay on target stay on target
[TS]
01:24:32
◼

for the holiday season because I was

5,000 t-shirts the other day

01:26:01
◼

[TS]
01:26:04
◼
►
really like inspiration of you have been
[TS]
01:26:06
◼
►
and I've been where and I've been
[TS]
01:26:08
◼
►
putting them on and going to the gym and
[TS]
01:26:10
◼
►
running but because of this arbitrary
[TS]
01:26:12
◼
►
5,000 number which you just pulled out
[TS]
01:26:14
◼
►
of nowhere when we were when we were
[TS]
01:26:16
◼
►
making it up on the spot
[TS]
01:26:18
◼
►
I've just run with it and I'm running
[TS]
01:26:20
◼
►
5,000 meters
[TS]
01:26:22
◼
►
every time I go to the gym like I get on
[TS]
01:26:24
◼
►
the treadmill and I run 5,000 meters and
[TS]
01:26:27
◼
►
I'm saying if i can do it how quickly I
[TS]
01:26:29
◼
►
can do and I'm trying to bring my x down
[TS]
01:26:31
◼
►
and the other thing that really inspired
[TS]
01:26:34
◼
►
me and also completely depressed me was
[TS]
01:26:36
◼
►
Henry of minutephysics same blue he got
[TS]
01:26:41
◼
►
a Fiat Ron 5,000 t-shirt and Henry for
[TS]
01:26:44
◼
►
those who don't know is a very fit young
[TS]
01:26:46
◼
►
man and quite the athlete who and he
[TS]
01:26:49
◼
►
made a video of himself wearing the
[TS]
01:26:52
◼
►
furniture on 5,000 t-shirt and he ran
[TS]
01:26:54
◼
►
5,000 meters out in the snow and he
[TS]
01:26:57
◼
►
actually ran over 5,000 meters because
[TS]
01:26:59
◼
►
that's just what he did and he ran in
[TS]
01:27:01
◼
►
this ridiculous time of less than
[TS]
01:27:03
◼
►
eighteen and a half minutes
[TS]
01:27:04
◼
►
I mean he should be in the Olympics yeah
[TS]
01:27:06
◼
►
in fact I think I checked and there was
[TS]
01:27:08
◼
►
a time when that would almost have been
[TS]
01:27:10
◼
►
a world record I'm not surprised but and
[TS]
01:27:14
◼
►
I'm never going to get anywhere near his
[TS]
01:27:15
◼
►
time but i have found a really
[TS]
01:27:19
◼
►
motivating and i'm really enjoying going
[TS]
01:27:21
◼
►
to the gym and and having this set
[TS]
01:27:23
◼
►
distance I have to run and at the end of
[TS]
01:27:25
◼
►
each round I take a photo of the time
[TS]
01:27:26
◼
►
and then I come home and put it in a
[TS]
01:27:27
◼
►
spreadsheet and I've got I've got really
[TS]
01:27:31
◼
►
into her and I know it's early days but
[TS]
01:27:33
◼
►
the last few days in particular I've
[TS]
01:27:36
◼
►
even mean I've commented to my wife that
[TS]
01:27:38
◼
►
i'm working really well when i'm i'm
[TS]
01:27:40
◼
►
having less fellow periods at work and
[TS]
01:27:42
◼
►
I'm I'm getting more done each day and I
[TS]
01:27:44
◼
►
said I said I can't explain what's going
[TS]
01:27:46
◼
►
on she said it's probably because you're
[TS]
01:27:48
◼
►
running and exercising and I was like it
[TS]
01:27:51
◼
►
probably is
[TS]
01:27:52
◼
►
whenever I didn't even think of that mm
[TS]
01:27:55
◼
►
maybe this is maybe like this is you
[TS]
01:27:58
◼
►
know so maybe I'm not losing those away
[TS]
01:27:59
◼
►
but maybe just removing some blood
[TS]
01:28:01
◼
►
around and I know I sound like an idiot
[TS]
01:28:05
◼
►
like I've just discovered that exercise
[TS]
01:28:06
◼
►
is good for me
[TS]
01:28:07
◼
►
paperback
[TS]
01:28:08
◼
►
but as I have but this is the subjective
[TS]
01:28:11
◼
►
experience of it right yes is that it it
[TS]
01:28:15
◼
►
like it sneaks it sneaks in in an
[TS]
01:28:19
◼
►
unexpected way that you can sort of you
[TS]
01:28:21
◼
►
cannot really notice until it's been
[TS]
01:28:26
◼
►
happening for a while
[TS]
01:28:27
◼
►
that's so yeah this is totally
[TS]
01:28:29
◼
►
understandable 5,000 meters is a really
[TS]
01:28:33
◼
►
I think it's a really almost perfect
[TS]
01:28:35
◼
►
distance like like I don't know if
[TS]
01:28:38
◼
►
you're like some kind of genius or was
[TS]
01:28:40
◼
►
blind luck but it's almost like you
[TS]
01:28:43
◼
►
almost couldn't have picked a more
[TS]
01:28:44
◼
►
perfect distance because you know it
[TS]
01:28:47
◼
►
takes you know half an hour to run 5,000
[TS]
01:28:50
◼
►
meters you know if you're just an
[TS]
01:28:52
◼
►
average runner I guess
[TS]
01:28:53
◼
►
normal person you know more than half an
[TS]
01:28:55
◼
►
arrogance but it's taking me a little
[TS]
01:28:57
◼
►
over half now but i'm getting it down so
[TS]
01:29:00
◼
►
it's like it's a good amount of time
[TS]
01:29:01
◼
►
it's not like you know some ridiculous
[TS]
01:29:03
◼
►
marathon it doesn't kill your body to do
[TS]
01:29:05
◼
►
it semi-regularly it's not so sure that
[TS]
01:29:09
◼
►
it's not worth the effort
[TS]
01:29:10
◼
►
it's a very it's a really good distance
[TS]
01:29:11
◼
►
so yeah so it's it's funny that you say
[TS]
01:29:19
◼
►
this Brady because there there's a thing
[TS]
01:29:23
◼
►
that I had been keeping a secret from
[TS]
01:29:26
◼
►
you which is just so strange to me that
[TS]
01:29:31
◼
►
I can hardly even understand how or why
[TS]
01:29:34
◼
►
I'm doing it but i actually started
[TS]
01:29:38
◼
►
trying to run right and they get I know
[TS]
01:29:44
◼
►
that the people you need to understand i
[TS]
01:29:48
◼
►
think i have literally not run except
[TS]
01:29:52
◼
►
for occasional sprints in dulles airport
[TS]
01:29:54
◼
►
force close connections because it ends
[TS]
01:29:56
◼
►
of those godforsaken terminals but aside
[TS]
01:30:00
◼
►
from that I think I have literally not
[TS]
01:30:02
◼
►
run for the entirety of my adult life
[TS]
01:30:09
◼
►
just about a month ago it just it came
[TS]
01:30:12
◼
►
into my head of like why don't you try
[TS]
01:30:14
◼
►
to run five thousand readers like this
[TS]
01:30:16
◼
►
this idea came unbidden from nowhere
[TS]
01:30:19
◼
►
popped into my head and my thought was
[TS]
01:30:22
◼
►
but but I hate running and then I
[TS]
01:30:25
◼
►
thought about it more and it was the
[TS]
01:30:26
◼
►
answer was do I though like do I know
[TS]
01:30:30
◼
►
that I hate running like I i don't think
[TS]
01:30:32
◼
►
i actually no i think that i think i
[TS]
01:30:35
◼
►
hate to run and so I happen to be
[TS]
01:30:39
◼
►
traveling and I happen to be in Germany
[TS]
01:30:41
◼
►
out of the blue out of nowhere
[TS]
01:30:43
◼
►
I got a little training appt for running
[TS]
01:30:46
◼
►
and I went outside to run in a park in
[TS]
01:30:50
◼
►
Germany it was just completely out of
[TS]
01:30:51
◼
►
character and completely surprising to
[TS]
01:30:53
◼
►
me and since then i have been very very
[TS]
01:30:57
◼
►
very slowly trying to build up the
[TS]
01:31:01
◼
►
amount that i run and when I do it comes
[TS]
01:31:04
◼
►
out there running and I'm still thinking
[TS]
01:31:05
◼
►
I think I don't like this but I don't
[TS]
01:31:09
◼
►
know but I'm trying to get to the point
[TS]
01:31:11
◼
►
where i can actually run 5,000 meters
[TS]
01:31:14
◼
►
and then i will feel like well then i
[TS]
01:31:16
◼
►
can make an informed decision about
[TS]
01:31:18
◼
►
whether or not I actually like running
[TS]
01:31:21
◼
►
or I don't but I to think that somehow
[TS]
01:31:24
◼
►
like the finished Ron 5,000 lifestyle in
[TS]
01:31:27
◼
►
some bizarre way like that number 5000
[TS]
01:31:30
◼
►
got into my brain and I'm like oh I know
[TS]
01:31:32
◼
►
there are races that are 5k and some
[TS]
01:31:35
◼
►
part of my brain just decided let's go
[TS]
01:31:37
◼
►
for this we like we don't run and let's
[TS]
01:31:39
◼
►
try to get to the point where i can run
[TS]
01:31:41
◼
►
5,000 meters and I am baffled by this
[TS]
01:31:44
◼
►
behavior in myself but here Pierre I am
[TS]
01:31:47
◼
►
Here I am
[TS]
01:31:48
◼
►
well sort of distances are you want at
[TS]
01:31:50
◼
►
the moment and what kind of space to run
[TS]
01:31:51
◼
►
at when i run Brady my spirit animal is
[TS]
01:31:55
◼
►
a turtle right that you have this little
[TS]
01:31:59
◼
►
training program on my phone which tries
[TS]
01:32:01
◼
►
to be super gentle where it's like walk
[TS]
01:32:03
◼
►
four seven minutes and then after seven
[TS]
01:32:06
◼
►
minutes it beeps and it goes ok just jog
[TS]
01:32:08
◼
►
very slowly for a minute and then after
[TS]
01:32:12
◼
►
the minute it's okay get back to walking
[TS]
01:32:13
◼
►
out walk for another 5 minutes right now
[TS]
01:32:15
◼
►
just trying to build you up and when it
[TS]
01:32:17
◼
►
got to the point where I had to run for
[TS]
01:32:19
◼
►
five minutes in a row i thought like I
[TS]
01:32:21
◼
►
was going to die
[TS]
01:32:22
◼
►
like I just my body is so not built for
[TS]
01:32:25
◼
►
running at the moment I'd have to look
[TS]
01:32:27
◼
►
at the exact times but it is taking me a
[TS]
01:32:29
◼
►
hell of a long time to go 5,000 meters
[TS]
01:32:32
◼
►
and i am walking the vast vast majority
[TS]
01:32:35
◼
►
of it but i feel like i'm just going to
[TS]
01:32:38
◼
►
follow this little program and build
[TS]
01:32:39
◼
►
this up slowly and I think it's probably
[TS]
01:32:42
◼
►
going to take like two months or
[TS]
01:32:43
◼
►
something to get to the maybe the point
[TS]
01:32:45
◼
►
where I'm actually running 5,000 meters
[TS]
01:32:47
◼
►
but I'm fine going nice and slow and
[TS]
01:32:50
◼
►
here so it's just it's a thing that is
[TS]
01:32:52
◼
►
unexpected to me you're doing outside
[TS]
01:32:54
◼
►
you're not doing it like a treadmill
[TS]
01:32:56
◼
►

[TS]
01:33:01
◼
►

◼
►
running a little while back when I did a
[TS]
01:33:53
◼
►
half marathon and it's this is true on

01:33:56
◼

01:33:59
◼
►
run bases but also on the the big
[TS]
01:34:01
◼
►
picture over the months you do it at the
[TS]
01:34:04
◼
►
start you don't enjoy it and then you
[TS]
01:34:07
◼
►
start to really love her and that's true
[TS]
01:34:09
◼
►
on an individual run the first five
[TS]
01:34:11
◼
►
minutes you think uh what am i doing
[TS]
01:34:13
◼
►
this is gonna take forever and then
[TS]
01:34:14
◼
►
after about five to ten minutes of
[TS]
01:34:16
◼
►
running this the rest of it is actually
[TS]
01:34:18
◼
►
quite enjoyable thing but also on the
[TS]
01:34:21
◼
►
big-scale the first month of us are
[TS]
01:34:23
◼
►
running your thinking on this is such a
[TS]
01:34:24
◼
►
grind and then it becomes something you
[TS]
01:34:26
◼

[TS]
01:35:01
◼
►

◼

experience and I just I I don't quite
[TS]
01:35:07
◼
►
know how to describe it yet and actually
[TS]
01:35:09
◼
►
just by total accident the the very
[TS]
01:35:11
◼
►
first time that I went running I didn't
[TS]
01:35:14
◼
►
have any headphones with me so I was
[TS]
01:35:15
◼
►
just outside without any music or
[TS]
01:35:18
◼
►
anything and I was talking to Henry
[TS]
01:35:21
◼
►
actually because I was asking him for
[TS]
01:35:22
◼
►
some beginner tips because I figured if
[TS]
01:35:24
◼
►
anybody knew about running it was Henry
[TS]
01:35:26
◼
►
and his suggestion was to keep doing it
[TS]
01:35:30
◼
►
without listening to any music which
[TS]
01:35:31
◼
►
would be my natural co2 like oh yeah i
[TS]
01:35:33
◼
►
gotta have some workout songs
[TS]
01:35:34
◼
►
mhm and I don't know if anybody else
[TS]
01:35:38
◼
►
wants to try doing running I think
[TS]
01:35:42
◼
►
Henry's right i think doing it without
[TS]
01:35:44
◼
►
music somehow feels like the correct
[TS]
01:35:48
◼
►
thing to do
[TS]
01:35:50
◼
►
I can't quite explain it it's like it is
[TS]
01:35:52
◼
►
sort of boring but it just feels right i
[TS]
01:35:56
◼
►
think that's true for outdoor running
[TS]
01:35:57
◼
►
I'm not sure it's true for Kim's i'm
[TS]
01:36:00
◼
►
going to agree with you there i think if
[TS]
01:36:01
◼
►
i was on a treadmill at the gym I would
[TS]
01:36:04
◼
►
have to listen to something about it but
[TS]
01:36:06
◼
►
for running outdoors it feels right to
[TS]
01:36:08
◼
►
not have to not have the headphones on
[TS]
01:36:11
◼
►
you've stuck with the headphone free
[TS]
01:36:13
◼
►
have you haven't yet gone to headphone
[TS]
01:36:15
◼
►
sense that have not gone to headphone
[TS]
01:36:16
◼
►
sense that's interesting that's good
[TS]
01:36:18
◼
►
that's very interesting to him
[TS]
01:36:20
◼
►
yeah it was it just a coincidence but
[TS]
01:36:22
◼
►
Henry suggested that I i keep trying it

01:36:25
◼
►
that way when I had accidentally done at
