[TS]
00:03:52
◼

◼
►

story a where it made me cry before I
[TS]
00:04:10
◼
►
finally like got right when we got like
[TS]
00:04:13
◼
►
tempered two questions first of all we

[TS]
00:04:49
◼

[TS]
00:04:52
◼
►
getting it wrong in thinking it was

00:04:53
◼
►
Stalin is it's very much in line with

[TS]
00:05:02
◼

line with that it's like it's such a
[TS]
00:05:04
◼
►
perfect instance of that kind of black
[TS]
00:05:07
◼
►
yeah then and and yet I and I don't know

[TS]
00:08:58
◼
►

[TS]
00:09:22
◼
►
11 0 and 0 is negative 1 right
[TS]
00:09:25
◼

[TS]
00:21:38
◼
►
numbers but it can be very very
[TS]
00:21:39
◼
►
confusing and then this also extends to
[TS]
00:21:41
◼
►
their the different models of a computer
[TS]
00:21:43
◼
►
of things because that those get

[TS]
00:21:58
◼
►
we used to call a macbook air in
[TS]
00:22:00
◼
►
something that's no longer called a
[TS]
00:22:01
◼
►
macbook air
[TS]
00:22:02
◼
►
this is some people have podcast about
[TS]
00:22:04
◼
►
why are you all humans didn't talk about
[TS]
00:22:07
◼
►
that today you mean well the thing is
[TS]
00:22:10
◼
►
it's important that i talk about these
[TS]
00:22:11
◼
►
things with you because I keep telling
[TS]
00:22:13
◼
►
people when they say what you do for a
[TS]
00:22:15
◼
►
living again
[TS]
00:22:15
◼
►
yeah I say I'm kind of I'm kind of in
[TS]
00:22:20
◼
►
the text fear and they may tilt their
[TS]
00:22:24
◼
►
heads quizzically and their spouse does
[TS]
00:22:27
◼
►
to like like a dog that just harmonica
[TS]
00:22:29
◼
►
and it's a go
[TS]
00:22:34
◼
►
I'm kind of disruptive within the
[TS]
00:22:36
◼
►
texture
[TS]
00:22:37
◼
►
oh and then make up their heads the
[TS]
00:22:40
◼
►
other one go
[TS]
00:22:41
◼
►
mmm only Nixon could go to China that's
[TS]
00:22:44
◼
►
right and so periodically I think it's
[TS]
00:22:47
◼
►
important that i talk about text oh
[TS]
00:22:49
◼
►
that's that's a terrific idea
[TS]
00:22:50
◼
►
yeah because it it repositions me
[TS]
00:22:54
◼
►
centrally in the disruptive a quadrant
[TS]
00:22:58
◼
►
of the texts fear right is every spirit
[TS]
00:23:02
◼
►
is divided into quadrants that's right
[TS]
00:23:04
◼
►
every sphere has quadrants and over here
[TS]
00:23:05
◼
►
you got a normative quadrant you're not
[TS]
00:23:07
◼
►
interested in that there's no future in
[TS]
00:23:08
◼
►
the normative quadrant new you want to
[TS]
00:23:11
◼
►
be another disruptive cause a dominant
[TS]
00:23:13
◼
►
quadrant and then there's the what was a
[TS]
00:23:19
◼
►
missive no I don't think submissive I
[TS]
00:23:21
◼
►
think it would be a subversive oh I see
[TS]
00:23:25
◼
►
you say you're going to the dominant
[TS]
00:23:28
◼
►
quadra subvert the dominant quadrant of
[TS]
00:23:30
◼
►
the sphere right
[TS]
00:23:32
◼
►
ok so that's where I like to locate
[TS]
00:23:35
◼
►
myself for being located i don't know if
[TS]
00:23:38
◼
►
you can locate yourself
[TS]
00:23:39
◼
►
I think you can I think you need to be
[TS]
00:23:41
◼
►
located
[TS]
00:23:42
◼
►
bye-bye others by the culture by the
[TS]
00:23:47
◼
►
conventional wisdom and in order to do
[TS]
00:23:49
◼
►
that you have to maintain a foot in the
[TS]
00:23:52
◼
►
in the selected quadrant okay you know
[TS]
00:23:54
◼
►
what no I'm gonna allow it i'll tell you
[TS]
00:23:56
◼
►
this I'll tell you one thing i don't
[TS]
00:23:57
◼
►
like about about Bill Clinton was that
[TS]
00:23:59
◼
►
he introduced the word grow as far as i
[TS]
00:24:02
◼
►
know into the parlance as a transitive
[TS]
00:24:04
◼
►
verb i do not like when people use grow
[TS]
00:24:06
◼
►
as a transitive verb I don't think
[TS]
00:24:08
◼
►
detect you don't want to grow our
[TS]
00:24:10
◼
►
quadrant to see I think that's going to
[TS]
00:24:12
◼
►
be happening in the in the
[TS]
00:24:13
◼
►
counter-revolutionary non-dominant hand
[TS]
00:24:15
◼
►
of the public of the severe well I think
[TS]
00:24:18
◼
►
what we're doing here fires didn't
[TS]
00:24:20
◼
►
correct me if I'm wrong but if you want
[TS]
00:24:21
◼
►
to use locate as a reflexive verb to
[TS]
00:24:26
◼
►
talk about where you decide to see how
[TS]
00:24:29
◼
►
about this how about you situate
[TS]
00:24:30
◼
►
yourself i'm pretty sure all to sarah
[TS]
00:24:33
◼
►
said you can situate you can situate
[TS]
00:24:35
◼
►
others and I imagine with a little bit
[TS]
00:24:37
◼
►
of effort you can situate yourself i
[TS]
00:24:39
◼
►
think i'd ride to such I think we I try
[TS]
00:24:42
◼
►
to situate myself within your and my
[TS]
00:24:44
◼
►
context so then it's like a Zen sphere a
[TS]
00:24:49
◼
►
sense their spirits fears upon spirits
[TS]
00:24:51
◼
►
fears all the way down huh
[TS]
00:24:53
◼
►
I tried to be nice try to situate myself
[TS]
00:24:56
◼
►
with you within our text within our
[TS]
00:24:58
◼
►
sphere which is within the text fear
[TS]
00:25:01
◼
►
okay okay I think I got it I'm situating
[TS]
00:25:03
◼
►
myself with you as the disrupt or
[TS]
00:25:08
◼
►
but i am but i think that that that it's
[TS]
00:25:15
◼
►
not capable
[TS]
00:25:16
◼
►
I'm not capable of well for instance I
[TS]
00:25:18
◼
►
don't think you can say about yourself
[TS]
00:25:21
◼
►
that you're woke oh yeah it's like
[TS]
00:25:24
◼
►
calling your own verse poetry
[TS]
00:25:26
◼
►
yeah i think only someone else only a
[TS]
00:25:29
◼
►
stakeholder can describe you as woke you
[TS]
00:25:33
◼
►
i know another one thought leader
[TS]
00:25:36
◼
►
oh you're not allowed to call yourself a
[TS]
00:25:38
◼
►
thought later somebody else calls you a
[TS]
00:25:40
◼
►
thought leader you can punch him in the
[TS]
00:25:41
◼
►
nose but but i think if you call
[TS]
00:25:43
◼
►
yourself a thought leader you can have a
[TS]
00:25:44
◼
►
heater problems and let's be honest just
[TS]
00:25:46
◼
►
because you have one bag of coffee two
[TS]
00:25:48
◼
►
bags of coffees three coffees bags that
[TS]
00:25:51
◼
►
doesn't mean you can also have a larger
[TS]
00:25:53
◼
►
bag in which to situate those coffees
[TS]
00:25:55
◼
►

◼
►

to watch because it was

because they they land so many punches
[TS]
00:27:24
◼
►
normally throughout their career they
[TS]
00:27:26
◼
►
have and this was just a swish that
[TS]
00:27:29
◼
►
everybody in it and frankly I honestly
[TS]
00:27:32
◼

◼
►
one because I'm pretty easy kind of the
[TS]
00:27:56
◼
►
Pantheon for me I before me too i'm kind
[TS]
00:27:59
◼
►
of pro Clooney I go I look out into the

00:28:01
◼
►

[TS]
00:28:04
◼
►
was a knock on the door I opened the
[TS]
00:28:06
◼
►
door and there were two people standing
[TS]
00:28:09
◼
►
there and dark sunglasses in black suits
[TS]
00:28:11
◼
►
uh-huh and they said Clooney I'd say
[TS]
00:28:15
◼
►
Clooney yeah right you're not gonna stay

00:28:18
◼
►

00:28:21
◼

like you know a barring any information
[TS]
00:28:23
◼
►
to the contrary my god is that he's a
[TS]
00:28:26
◼
►
he's a good guy a good guy right i feel
[TS]
00:28:29
◼
►
that same way about pit innovative these
[TS]
00:28:31
◼
►
two guys at the door like Clooney and
[TS]
00:28:32
◼
►
Pitt Clooney and poke
[TS]
00:28:34
◼
►
I was I'd say yeah they do my taxes yeah
[TS]
00:28:36
◼
►
like I i love cleaning but there are
[TS]
00:28:40
◼
►
there are there's I think ample evidence
[TS]
00:28:42
◼
►
to say about pit at least there's ample
[TS]
00:28:46
◼
►
evidence where you could be any one of
[TS]
00:28:48
◼
►
them but hmm yeah really i just i always
[TS]
00:28:53
◼
►
felt like that charm that smile
[TS]
00:28:56
◼
►
he's gonna get away with it there's
[TS]
00:28:59
◼
►
something a friend of mine likes to say
[TS]
00:29:00
◼
►
about why i'm not on a lot of his
[TS]
00:29:01
◼
►
podcast which is that he likes to deploy
[TS]
00:29:03
◼
►
me tactically which i think is a very
[TS]
00:29:06
◼
►
nice way of saying he just doesn't want
[TS]
00:29:07
◼
►
too much of me on it shows which i think
[TS]
00:29:09
◼
►
is an entirely reasonable point of view
[TS]
00:29:10
◼
►
it is what you're saying here that maybe
[TS]
00:29:12
◼
►
cleaning is something we should deploy
[TS]
00:29:13
◼
►
tactically what I'm saying is Clooney as
[TS]
00:29:17
◼
►
a comedic actor I feel like that's the
[TS]
00:29:22
◼
►
leap that we have that we that we are
[TS]
00:29:24
◼
►
making one reflectively and we need to
[TS]
00:29:27
◼
►
stop we need to take a step back at ya
[TS]
00:29:30
◼
►
Clooney's very charming he's wonderful
[TS]
00:29:33
◼
►
he's handsome
[TS]
00:29:34
◼
►
is he truly a comedic actor oh brother

00:29:37
◼
►

[TS]
00:29:43
◼
►
interesting film that will get a lot of
[TS]
00:29:46
◼
►
people love it's sort of like Moonrise
[TS]
00:29:48
◼
►
Kingdom no doubt very good or i would
[TS]
00:29:52
◼
►
even say steve zissou it's one of those
[TS]
00:29:54
◼
►
like if you don't like the general Wes
[TS]
00:29:57
◼
►
Anderson deal don't start with steve
[TS]
00:29:59
◼
►
zissou but I feel like Moonrise Kingdom
[TS]
00:30:02
◼
►
is one of the films where a where like a
[TS]
00:30:08
◼
►
fans of the director can differ there is
[TS]
00:30:15
◼
►
a lot I don't think that's the
[TS]
00:30:16
◼
►
apotheosis of what wes anderson is
[TS]
00:30:19
◼
►
capable of right now I mean people who

00:30:22
◼

are fans are like this is this is the

really perhaps dumb way that's the
[TS]
00:48:42
◼
►
training wheels for learning how to tell
[TS]
00:48:43
◼
►
a story is to write something you know
[TS]
00:48:45
◼

10 pages long before you write something
[TS]
00:48:47
◼
►
300 pages
[TS]
00:48:48
◼
►
well I I may have done this because it
[TS]
00:48:53
◼
►
was very self-serving but a long time
[TS]
00:48:55
◼
►
ago I said the novel is a is a high art
[TS]
00:49:03
◼
►
but then the short story is a higher art
[TS]
00:49:07
◼
►
because you have less room fewer words
[TS]
00:49:13
◼
►
to tell the entire tail and then poems
[TS]
00:49:19
◼
►
as commonly would say aren't even
[TS]
00:49:24
◼
►
further and even higher art because you
[TS]
00:49:26
◼
►
have now reduced it you have reduced the
[TS]
00:49:30
◼
►
short story to or the rather you reduce
[TS]
00:49:34
◼
►
the novel's worth of story two stanzas
[TS]
00:49:39
◼
►
and then the highest ours is the pop
[TS]
00:49:44
◼
►
song because now you've taken the poem
[TS]
00:49:48
◼
►
and cleanse it of all of its impurity
[TS]
00:49:52
◼
►
wash the filth out of it through and
[TS]
00:49:56
◼
►
made only the gold only the little
[TS]
00:50:00
◼
►
shining nuggets and that is why the pop
[TS]
00:50:04
◼

song sits atop the pyramid of all
[TS]
00:50:07
◼

writing as the true condensation now

[TS]
01:00:04
◼

lot of different directions
[TS]
01:00:05
◼

absolutely and so I figured like say
[TS]
01:00:08
◼
►
anything about that really what you're
[TS]
01:00:09
◼
►
saying is like there's a form factor
[TS]
01:00:11
◼
►
here we want this thing that's like
[TS]
01:00:12
◼
►
super comfortable like a husky pencil
[TS]
01:00:14
◼
►
yeah nobody's gonna make it out of I bet
[TS]
01:00:17
◼
►
there's a lot of options there a lot of
[TS]
01:00:19
◼
►
options and how are you going to grind
[TS]
01:00:21
◼
►
up this stuff that you're going to put
[TS]
01:00:23
◼
►
our season casing seasoning casing m.i.a
[TS]
01:00:27
◼
►
and so I figured you know these were
[TS]
01:00:31
◼
►
originally meant to be carried around in
[TS]
01:00:33
◼
►
the pocket of a farmer for however long
[TS]
01:00:36
◼
►
for azzaro at in the pocket of a
[TS]
01:00:39
◼
►
goatherd or somebody somebody that goes
[TS]
01:00:41
◼
►
up into the mountains and then comes
[TS]
01:00:43
◼
►
down some indeterminate time later huh
[TS]
01:00:46
◼
►
and so I put them in my pocket and
[TS]
01:00:47
◼
►
walked around figured they needed a
[TS]
01:00:49
◼
►
little bit of pocket curing Tokyo sure
[TS]
01:00:51
◼
►
and it didn't improve them and so they
[TS]
01:00:55
◼
►
said in my refrigerator a while and I
[TS]
01:00:57
◼
►
said maybe what they need to be is they
[TS]
01:00:59
◼
►
need to be desiccated because these
[TS]
01:01:01
◼
►
things are are better when they're
[TS]
01:01:03
◼
►
desiccated but no that didn't help them
[TS]
01:01:08
◼
►
and then I would be like that the easy
[TS]
01:01:09
◼
►
sticking a bag with like some silica
[TS]
01:01:10
◼
►
packets
[TS]
01:01:12
◼
►
well i think if you leave a thing in the
[TS]
01:01:14
◼
►
refrigerator long enough it will self
[TS]
01:01:17
◼
►
discipline and self test case yeah so
[TS]
01:01:19
◼
►
that didn't prove them and at the whole
[TS]
01:01:21
◼
►
time I was covered in a little bit of
[TS]
01:01:23
◼
►
shame because i like that i like the
[TS]
01:01:25
◼
►

things where we've determined that the

risk is manageable life would be so much

01:14:19
◼

[TS]
01:14:42
◼

comfort animal

[TS]
01:24:43
◼
►
horses in your house one of which is a
[TS]
01:24:45
◼

helper horse and one of which is a

familiar and just for fun throwing a

third what if you get a third one is

[TS]
01:24:54
◼

along do they sleep in different baskets

I don't feel like a comfort animal is
[TS]
01:24:59
◼
►
much aid to you other than being
[TS]
01:25:01
◼
►
friendly
[TS]
01:25:03
◼
►
although and asking to make you eggs I
[TS]

from the sword basket comfort beast I
[TS]
01:25:19
◼
►
would not ask that
[TS]
01:25:20
◼
►
and yet even the niceness I think is a
[TS]
01:25:26
◼
►
is called into question by the presence
[TS]
01:25:28
◼
►
of a comfort turkey because i do not
[TS]
01:25:30
◼
►
believe that turkey can be nice
[TS]
01:25:32
◼
►
turkeys are pretty mean-spirited they're
[TS]
01:25:34
◼

mean and i don't think that a turkey has
[TS]
01:25:36
◼
►
the capacity to be nice
[TS]
01:25:38
◼
►
whatever part of the brain locates the
[TS]
01:25:41
◼
►
niceness whatever lies they are located
[TS]
01:25:44
◼
►
yeah within the spirit of the brain of
[TS]
01:25:45
◼
►
an animal the truck is missing that part
[TS]
01:25:47
◼
►
of the brain
[TS]
01:25:48
◼
►
okay so apparently a confidence is
[TS]
01:25:50
◼
►
nothing and non-existence fear part that
[TS]
01:25:52
◼
►
we would think of as being like in
[TS]
01:25:54
◼
►
necessarily familiar could still be a
[TS]
01:25:56
◼
►
familiar it would not it could be a pet
[TS]
01:25:58
◼
►
faked it but it's not going to be
[TS]
01:26:00
◼
►
comforting and certainly will make you
[TS]
01:26:01
◼
►
eggs i think the comfort animal is a
[TS]
01:26:03
◼
►
vessel into which you prove that you
[TS]
01:26:06
◼
►
project your desire for comfort you your
[TS]
01:26:10
◼
►
desire to be comforted when the animal
[TS]
01:26:13

reflects your desire to be comfortable

for comforted back to use a cipher so

the aisle seat

[TS]
01:28:50
◼
►
everyone has a comfort animal so i would
[TS]
01:28:52
◼
►
have to imagine we've now gotten to that
[TS]
01:28:54
◼
►
point like homosexuality and veganism
[TS]
01:28:56
◼

where it's crossing broad spectrum of
[TS]
01:28:58
◼

the sphere removing way beyond this
[TS]
01:29:00
◼

quarter that quarter this Venn diagram

find comfort in animal and let's be
[TS]
01:29:06
◼

01:29:08
◼
►
those seats

that's right you might find they're
[TS]
01:29:10
◼

[TS]
01:29:13
◼

charge you full price
[TS]
01:29:14

check a bag maybe 75 bucks
[TS]
01:29:18
◼

actual comfort animals that are actually
[TS]
01:29:22
◼

providing needed comfort to people who
