00:03:21   call the Pacific Rim which is our the [TS]

00:03:24   rim around the Pacific where you would [TS]

00:03:27   basically where you would snap the lid [TS]

00:03:29   on the Pacific if it came with a lid [TS]

00:03:32   oh ok ok so it's a rim and we also call [TS]

00:03:36   it it's like the ring of fire [TS]

00:03:38   that's another word for it because it's [TS]

00:03:40   a rim of volcanoes are in conference [TS]

00:03:43   happening so it's some kind of rim [TS]

00:03:45   conference this isn't the big rim [TS]

00:03:47   conference they haven't had one of those [TS]

00:03:48   in a while but this is some kind of [TS]

00:03:50   trade deal where we're Seattle a city of [TS]

00:03:54   700,000 people gets to pretend for a [TS]

00:03:58   minute that anyone in China has ever [TS]

00:04:02   heard of it or that it is that it even [TS]

00:04:05   ranks in the top 80 cities in China [TS]

00:04:09   I mean by the time you get down to [TS]

00:04:11   chinese cities that have 700,000 people [TS]

00:04:13   you're basically like at the level i [TS]

00:04:16   mean like the 700,000 person cities in [TS]

00:04:19   China are the ones that make straws [TS]

00:04:21   Chinese amulet it's like drinking straw [TS]

00:04:25   city drinking straw to do that electron [TS]

00:04:27   they have specializations by different [TS]

00:04:29   areas right and socially yet that i [TS]

00:04:31   believe it is and so maybe from the [TS]

00:04:33   straw district you from straw district [TS]

00:04:35   or you're from paper clip down or you're [TS]

00:04:37   from something like that you know car [TS]

00:04:39   like you like turtle wax villa and if [TS]

00:04:44   you live in Turtle Wax Villa that's a [TS]

00:04:46   city of a million and a half people and [TS]

00:04:48   everyone there worked works making [TS]

00:04:50   turtle wax but [TS]

00:04:52   just as we like to think that we won [TS]

00:04:53   World War two even though by the time [TS]

00:04:56   the first American arrived in Europe [TS]

00:04:58   something like 80 million Russians had [TS]

00:05:02   already died [TS]

00:05:03   oh my god we also like to think that we [TS]

00:05:06   are up [TS]

00:05:07   Seattle is some kind of economic [TS]

00:05:08   powerhouse of the pacific rim where it's [TS]

00:05:12   just like you know there are 300 million [TS]

00:05:14   Americans and their and that is a [TS]

00:05:16   rounding error in the population of [TS]

00:05:19   error that the video i think i did the [TS]

00:05:22   video about deaths in world war two was [TS]

00:05:25   all like visualized oh yeah that was [TS]

00:05:27   interesting i liked I liked the guy you [TS]

00:05:30   know that that kind of like take some [TS]

00:05:32   data turn it into a a video podcast hope [TS]

00:05:37   it goes viral [TS]

00:05:38   I like that that business model that was [TS]

00:05:40   very well made and it really makes the [TS]

00:05:43   point that you're describing which is [TS]

00:05:44   first of all you know we were not in the [TS]

00:05:46   war super early [TS]

00:05:48   no that's not a war happen before we got [TS]

00:05:50   involved yeah we like we were on the [TS]

00:05:52   sidelines kind of not really i mean we [TS]

00:05:54   were cheering certainly but it wasn't [TS]

00:05:56   clear like we don't want to cheer too [TS]

00:05:58   loud [TS]

00:05:58   we didn't want the other kids to feel [TS]

00:05:59   bad that wasn't what is it how many was [TS]

00:06:01   a 20 million Russians well it's hard [TS]

00:06:04   it's hard to say because you really [TS]

00:06:06   can't and i can count it right yeah this [TS]

00:06:08   is the thing about Mao to its like the [TS]

00:06:11   famine deaths like how do you count the [TS]

00:06:14   famine deaths by the people that go in [TS]

00:06:16   gulags yeah you you lose ten million to [TS]

00:06:19   famine that's it's happening [TS]

00:06:22   concurrently with the war it's happening [TS]

00:06:24   because of decisions made by the same [TS]

00:06:26   people but you really love it in you [TS]

00:06:29   know that's it's a lot harder to count [TS]

00:06:30   those two because everybody starves and [TS]

00:06:33   they just sort of they know they wander [TS]

00:06:35   off in a field and die and the census [TS]

00:06:37   guys are really like standing there [TS]

00:06:41   well this is a depressing page you think [TS]

00:06:44   it's called World War two casualties on [TS]

00:06:46   the wikipedia oh yeah that's a that's a [TS]

00:06:49   that is a fun one isn't it because that [TS]

00:06:51   they break it down [TS]

00:06:53   I mean you know the number of people [TS]

00:06:54   that died in the Ukraine alone or our [TS]

00:06:57   belarus we just don't really think about [TS]

00:07:00   the sacrifices that were made [TS]

00:07:03   there and they were really making those [TS]

00:07:05   sacrifices on behalf of Liberty they [TS]

00:07:08   were just being sacrificed let's just [TS]

00:07:11   call it what it is right this is that [TS]

00:07:13   one of the columns is deaths as a [TS]

00:07:17   percentage of the 1939 population m and [TS]

00:07:21   it's sitting pretty [TS]

00:07:23   poland 16 around seventeen percent of [TS]

00:07:26   the population m amazing like like 16 [TS]

00:07:30   people a lot of people dressing so well [TS]

00:07:33   you know so I mean seattle in the grand [TS]

00:09:42   yeah I don't know this is ever really [TS]

00:09:43   really come up in the mythology of John [TS]

00:09:46   and I don't I don't say this is a high [TS]

00:09:48   citizen you you finish everyone else's [TS]

00:09:50   food and try and try again i don't want [TS]

00:09:56   but the thing about me is I like a [TS]

00:09:58   smorgasbord [TS]

00:09:59   mmm burgas lord are you like a [TS]

00:10:01   smorgasbord sports in the sense that if [TS]

00:10:06   there is a plate if there's a hit on any [TS]

00:10:09   menu if there's a sampler plate that [TS]

00:10:12   isn't of like the fried cheese sampler [TS]

00:10:14   yeah right like you go into a place and [TS]

00:10:16   it's like--go appetizer sampler it's [TS]

00:10:18   just like gross just undifferentiated [TS]

00:10:20   golden-brown fried things [TS]

00:10:22   yeah but i but i like to try a little [TS]

00:10:23   bit of everything so if they're if [TS]

00:10:25   there's ever like a you know one of each [TS]

00:10:28   kind of oyster or one of each kind of [TS]

00:10:31   stuffed pepper so you know I'll always [TS]

00:10:34   get the always get the the sampler and [TS]

00:10:37   and the best sampler ball is the little [TS]

00:10:40   bit of food that everybody leaves on [TS]

00:10:41   their plate at the end of a meal because [TS]

00:10:43   you go around here like oh you add the [TS]

00:10:45   lemon the lemon pasta and you had the [TS]

00:10:48   you know you have calamari steak Supreme [TS]

00:10:50   yeah you got a little bit of this a [TS]

00:10:51   little of that and so but i but i but [TS]

00:10:54   I've learned over time you know you have [TS]

00:10:57   to ask you can't just put your fork on [TS]

00:10:58   somebody else's plate and also you wait [TS]

00:11:00   until they're did they're clearly done [TS]

00:11:02   this you're telling me there's a sort of [TS]

00:11:05   like it like an ethics of them finishing [TS]

00:11:07   yeah because a lot of people you know [TS]

00:11:09   they want to eat at their own pace they [TS]

00:11:11   object to somebody kind of you know [TS]

00:11:15   and I have understandably they object to [TS]

00:11:17   somebody like vulturing and for that I'm [TS]

00:11:20   making like a bird of prey that and so [TS]

00:11:23   but you but you do want to secure your [TS]

00:11:25   rights to their leftovers before they a [TS]

00:11:29   throw their napkin down on their plate [TS]

00:11:32   because then you're like oh i was gonna [TS]

00:11:34   see if you wanted that or a conversely [TS]

00:11:38   the people that you know and again it's [TS]

00:11:40   their right to do it it's their meal but [TS]

00:11:42   if they want to take it home you can't [TS]

00:11:46   really like can really lay claim to [TS]

00:11:49   their leftovers if they're if they have [TS]

00:11:51   a plan for them already [TS]

00:11:52   you have to sort of politely call [TS]

00:11:53   Shotgun yeah you have to sort of waits [TS]

00:11:56   until a appropriate amount of time has [TS]

00:11:59   passed [TS]

00:11:59   um thankfully nobody smokes in [TS]

00:12:02   restaurants anymore so you don't have to [TS]

00:12:03   i mean the number of wonderful [TS]

00:12:05   half-eaten veal parmesan is that were [TS]

00:12:07   ruined by somebody putting their [TS]

00:12:09   cigarette out in it it leads to do that [TS]

00:12:11   I totally get that but their cigarette [TS]

00:12:13   out right in the center of the plate and [TS]

00:12:16   I would be like god i was i was trying [TS]

00:12:19   to gracefully I your food without [TS]

00:12:22   without you know going right up to it [TS]

00:12:25   without going over so it is a technique [TS]

00:12:29   but looking for instance this weekend I [TS]

00:12:30   went camping with some friends and a one [TS]

00:12:36   of the guys that was going with us owns [TS]

00:12:38   a restaurant so it was sort of presumed [TS]

00:12:41   by everybody that he was going to you [TS]

00:12:43   know be the chef and he brought some he [TS]

00:12:46   brought a pork Lowen he brought some [TS]

00:12:49   Cajun shrimps he had some food prepared [TS]

00:12:54   but I was a little bit like so I mean [TS]

00:12:57   we're going camping know like where the [TS]

00:12:59   wieners where's the right gonna want [TS]

00:13:01   some wieners to it was like well i got [TS]

00:13:04   this pork loin was like well yeah sure [TS]

00:13:06   we're going to eat the pork loin and the [TS]

00:13:09   cajun shrimp but it's a camping trip we [TS]

00:13:13   ought to have a package of wieners and I [TS]

00:13:16   started to feel like oh I see I mean I'm [TS]

00:13:20   the only one that really feels like [TS]

00:13:23   we're going into this half-cocked really [TS]

00:13:27   we're going out into the woods [TS]

00:13:28   and everybody else is like oh the poor [TS]

00:13:30   i'm sure the pork loin will be fun like [TS]

00:13:33   I'm sure it's fine too but there's I [TS]

00:13:35   mean there's a winner shaped hole mmm [TS]

00:13:38   that only a wiener can fill and and how [TS]

00:13:44   do i have to pull it to have to pull [TS]

00:13:46   this car over to its turn around and go [TS]

00:13:47   back and at that point there's probably [TS]

00:13:49   not like 7-11 you could go to pick up [TS]

00:13:51   some wieners [TS]

00:13:51   that's the problem right now you're [TS]

00:13:54   talking about like let's go back down [TS]

00:13:55   the mountain through over the river [TS]

00:13:58   through the gate [TS]

00:13:59   that's interesting your different kind [TS]

00:14:00   of fancy because there's already gonna [TS]

00:14:02   be there is the fanciness of the [TS]

00:14:04   fortress but you're being met offense [TS]

00:14:06   you're being fancy about the idea [TS]

00:14:07   there's not that this is obviously the [TS]

00:14:09   winter shaped hole here we gotta write [TS]

00:14:10   write on it and you know the problem the [TS]

00:14:12   problem [TS]

00:14:13   the thing about a wiener is your stand [TS]

00:14:14   around the campfire and everybody's [TS]

00:14:17   drinking their single malt bourbon and [TS]

00:14:19   half the people are smoking their [TS]

00:14:20   natural man she sure roots and you can [TS]

00:14:24   go over pull the winner out of a package [TS]

00:19:23   trips to El Gaucho that's my really good [TS]

00:19:27   is that may be the greatest thing ever [TS]

00:19:29   that's deeply innovate now becoming [TS]

00:19:31   clear it's not the kind of thing i do a [TS]

00:19:32   lot [TS]

00:19:33   no but i but i mean it's it's kind of [TS]

00:19:35   its kind of revolutionary well you the [TS]

00:19:38   whole idea you know it's like the [TS]

00:19:40   hobbits right you have second breakfast [TS]

00:19:41   but how many times you heard about [TS]

00:19:42   somebody having second dinner [TS]

00:19:44   well I have survived it all the time but [TS]

00:19:46   not not in the same restaurants not you [TS]

00:19:50   don't go back and drop another two [TS]

00:19:52   hundred and fifty dollars [TS]

00:19:54   it's not something I do all the time but [TS]

00:19:57   you know has at least a [TS]

00:19:58   once-in-a-lifetime thing i can highly [TS]

00:20:00   and I like the idea of going with the [TS]

00:20:01   same group of people if you can go only [TS]

00:20:03   oh yeah [TS]

00:20:04   everything about it is perfect and maybe [TS]

00:20:06   even trying to say we could get the same [TS]

00:20:07   way to our waiter was living [TS]

00:20:09   haha but the waiter saw you come in the [TS]

00:20:12   winter who would you know what the keys [TS]

00:20:14   cash daddy's getting ready introduced us [TS]

00:20:16   to our new server showed us a place we [TS]

00:20:19   had we had a little bit Rocky IV and [TS]

00:20:20   then don't have another dinner and your [TS]

00:20:23   second dinner did you order you must [TS]

00:20:26   have ordered different things i did i [TS]

00:20:27   had different drinks and actually had [TS]

00:20:29   maybe the same drink at the animal [TS]

00:20:30   fashion but yeah I had a different [TS]

00:20:32   dinner I i tried something a little more [TS]

00:20:34   little more ambitious didn't see that's [TS]

00:20:36   exactly what you do right you'd go you'd [TS]

00:20:38   you reach a little bit i don't think the [TS]

00:20:40   thing is I i have to tell you I had such [TS]

00:20:42   a wonderful time I don't I can't tell [TS]

00:20:43   you that I would do anything differently [TS]

00:20:44   but if I were advising somebody who is [TS]

00:20:46   considering we need a name for this [TS]

00:20:48   yeah if you're going to do a tactical to [TS]

00:20:51   dinner tonight [TS]

00:20:52   I think they're I think there are ways [TS]

00:20:54   to think about doing it i think the idea [TS]

00:20:56   of like is gonna be the same place twice [TS]

00:20:58   it's gonna be different places a [TS]

00:21:00   different approach [TS]

00:21:01   I think it might be novel to go and have [TS]

00:21:02   exactly the same dinner twice i think [TS]

00:21:04   that's an interesting idea to I mean I [TS]

00:21:05   feel like hanging out with a group of [TS]

00:21:07   people going to dinner early going to a [TS]

00:21:08   party and then after after the party [TS]

00:21:11   going out to like a late dinner that's [TS]

00:21:13   something different we're talking about [TS]

00:21:15   returning to the scene of the crime [TS]

00:21:18   yeah yeah let's lay out some of the [TS]

00:21:19   bullets on this I think it it doesn't [TS]

00:21:21   have to be a fancy restaurant [TS]

00:21:23   although i think that's kind of cool but [TS]

00:21:25   it should be the same restaurant [TS]

00:21:26   yeah we should be to the extent possible [TS]

00:21:27   mostly the same group of people all the [TS]

00:21:29   way up again not necessarily should you [TS]

00:21:31   know it's this is America you can attach [TS]

00:21:32   that tag one or two people in or out [TS]

00:21:34   depending on how big the group is but [TS]

00:21:36   now I kinda want to do it again so you [TS]

00:21:38   go to an early dinner which makes [TS]

00:21:40   perfect sense for the theater before the [TS]

00:21:42   show before the like lets go lets you [TS]

00:21:44   know 545 were having early dinner and [TS]

00:21:48   you have a fantastic night out you don't [TS]

00:21:51   want the evening the end let's go back [TS]

00:21:54   let's go back let's have second dinner [TS]

00:21:56   wow you know that so the equivalent [TS]

00:22:00   innovation for me was several years ago [TS]

00:22:02   I realized that when I was going out to [TS]

00:22:04   italian food with friends with any group [TS]

00:22:07   of friends four or more who we would [TS]

00:22:11   walk in the restaurant and before we [TS]

00:22:12   were even seated i would order a large [TS]

00:24:53   through the fact that you have a menu [TS]

00:24:55   item to a little bit of how this works [TS]

00:24:57   but I think everything here is locally [TS]

00:25:56   lean over to the guy you say brings a [TS]

00:25:58   large pepperoni pizza [TS]

00:25:59   there's so much room for innovation in [TS]

00:26:01   these kinds of things we all know about [TS]

00:26:02   things like you know let's have [TS]

00:26:04   breakfast for dinner right like that [TS]

00:26:06   tonight we're going to pancakes for [TS]

00:26:07   dinner right doing some of the afternoon [TS]

00:26:09   temps exactly what they don't make [TS]

00:26:11   daughters at her school today today is [TS]

00:26:12   breakfast for lunch day so she's getting [TS]

00:26:14   pancakes and sausage from [TS]

00:26:16   everybody's favorite meal but then [TS]

00:26:18   there's also other ways you can go you [TS]

00:26:19   can go into things like lets you know [TS]

00:26:21   like for example I'm frequently of a [TS]

00:26:23   mind especially with certain kinds of [TS]

00:26:25   restaurants where I would just like for [TS]

00:26:27   appetizers sure rather play that thing [TS]

00:26:31   you do that let's have appetizers for [TS]

00:26:32   dinner we do it all the time because the [TS]

00:26:34   thing is here in seattle now and i'm [TS]

00:26:36   sure this is true and been in certain [TS]

00:26:38   parts of San Francisco you walk in and [TS]

00:26:40   whatever the whatever the main courses [TS]

00:26:44   are they are just scaled up appetizers [TS]

00:26:48   and the appetizer just scaled down main [TS]

00:26:51   courses a place you may instance a tapas [TS]

00:26:53   you consider it a large plates [TS]

00:26:55   restaurant [TS]

00:26:56   yeah you you want to emphasize the tapas [TS]

00:26:58   the appetite of the appetizer list is [TS]

00:27:00   like tournedos of beef and you know [TS]

00:27:03   seven kinds of croutons and one pickled [TS]

00:27:07   pickle on top of something else pickled [TS]

00:27:10   and you go [TS]

00:27:12   none of that sounds great but but then [TS]

00:28:20   let me tell you a little bit how would [TS]

00:28:22   how this goes how this happens [TS]

00:28:24   everything has been pickled today [TS]

00:28:26   on the premises on the premises [TS]

00:28:30   we picked it all out of the cracks of [TS]

00:28:33   the pavement in our own parking lot and [TS]

00:28:35   then threw in some brine for their the [TS]

00:28:39   chicken takes an hour and a half because [TS]

00:28:41   it's not actually a chicken that's [TS]

00:28:43   question about the sides are they start [TS]

00:28:44   family-style meant to be shared at and [TS]

00:28:48   then so we just ordered you know we just [TS]

00:28:49   ordered a bunch of food we were there [TS]

00:28:52   Ken Jennings is one of the nerds and [TS]

00:28:54   can't took the reins was just like okay [TS]

00:28:56   we'll have the pick of pickled beets on [TS]

00:28:59   top of cabbage will have the the pickled [TS]

00:29:02   onions with the with you know pickle [TS]

00:29:04   clams and he ordered like 15 things from [TS]

00:29:08   the appetizer menu and it was great i [TS]

00:29:09   mean it tasted like to basically tastes [TS]

00:29:12   like you're eating a jar of mustard [TS]

00:29:14   oh boy but that's and it cost one [TS]

00:29:17   thousand dollars but that is how that's [TS]

00:29:20   what dining is now you think it's cheap [TS]

00:29:22   the pickle stuff got vinegar costs you [TS]

00:29:24   know how long it took us to tell you [TS]

00:29:26   about this have you locally sourced ill [TS]

00:29:28   recently listened with fifteen dollars [TS]

00:29:30   an hour is the law in Seattle [TS]

00:29:31   mhm and it's a very expensive to employ [TS]

00:29:34   our waiters to sit and explain how food [TS]

00:29:36   for works to you it's not another this [TS]

00:29:39   is cheap is your first time in seattle [TS]

00:29:41   look-look we had to take this formerly a [TS]

00:29:44   like that this former garage where [TS]

00:29:47   actual cars were once worked on by [TS]

00:29:49   people with skills we have to take [TS]

00:29:52   everything useful out of it and and and [TS]

00:29:55   then turn it into a pickling parlor and [TS]

00:29:58   that's not none of this is cheap [TS]

00:30:00   I feel like I just that now my am i'm [TS]

00:30:02   just a buzz with ideas i feel like i [TS]

00:30:04   could be a consultant today like I have [TS]

00:30:05   so many ideas in my head like for [TS]

00:30:07   example think about when you do dim sum [TS]

00:30:09   and if you go to a dim sum place [TS]

00:30:10   especially when they've got like a cart [TS]

00:30:12   like you're never really done ordering [TS]

00:30:13   until you just make them go away like [TS]

00:30:16   you're just coming they're offering your [TS]

00:30:17   new foods they're stacking plates i [TS]

00:30:19   think the closest thing after that the [TS]

00:30:20   we get is sushi [TS]

00:30:22   well of course obviously got a buffet [TS]

00:30:23   that's a different kind of animal but [TS]

00:30:25   was sushi even today like i don't know [TS]

00:30:27   why i first started getting eating sushi [TS]

00:30:29   with people it was very normal to say [TS]

00:30:31   like let's start out with writes this [TS]

00:30:34   sure we'll bring you the edamame because [TS]

00:30:36   so many people ordered at mommy to start [TS]

00:30:39   that now most sushi restaurants just [TS]

00:30:42   bring you some edamame just to like yeah [TS]

00:30:44   we know you're going to order this it's [TS]

00:30:45   now we just consider placing mind [TS]

00:30:47   readers and I like the idea of starting [TS]

00:30:49   out like with the pepperoni pizza and [TS]

00:30:51   just building pepperoni pizza because [TS]

00:30:52   just like the foundation we don't know [TS]

00:30:54   what this building is going [TS]

00:30:55   that's right it's the bits the basic [TS]

00:30:56   level it's the ground floor and then you [TS]

00:31:00   know it anymore when I go to get dim sum [TS]

00:31:04   I feel like what's really happening is a [TS]

00:31:07   like i'm climbing up on the side of of [TS]

00:31:14   i'm climbing up on the side of like a a [TS]

00:31:17   moving truck and a bit more tanjo is [TS]

00:31:22   spraying instead of chrome directly in [TS]

00:31:26   my mouth a spring msg just directly in [TS]

00:31:28   my mouth is like I called secret salt [TS]

00:31:32   you know I don't need to eat the mystery [TS]

00:31:36   pork I don't need to put the buns in my [TS]

00:31:39   mouth I could just I could just jump up [TS]

00:31:41   there and say you know like I am chrome [TS]

00:31:45   witness men and they could just [TS]

00:31:47   you're going to Valhalla here's the msg [TS]

00:31:51   IBM restaurant with spray msg is pretty [TS]

00:31:53   good but if I was standing on a [TS]

00:31:55   foundation of pepperoni pizza when that [TS]

00:31:57   happened I was first would be grounded [TS]

00:31:59   from electric shock and I you know and i [TS]

00:32:03   would have to have some have some base [TS]

00:32:05   layer of bread and cheese that msg could [TS]

00:32:08   kind of soak into and I would I would I [TS]

00:32:11   wouldn't have that like hallucinatory [TS]

00:32:13   hour and a half after after the best dim [TS]

00:32:16   sum meal where you just you know where [TS]

00:32:18   you're like you're hearing colors and [TS]

00:32:20   stuff [TS]

00:32:21   oh you can like to smell truth yeah yeah [TS]

00:32:23   because the msg was doing with your [TS]

00:32:24   synesthesia little bra you get that [TS]

00:32:28   pretty hard don't you [TS]

00:32:29   you know i i've done a fair enough [TS]

00:32:32   amount of research to know that the only [TS]

00:32:34   people that will really stand up and say [TS]

00:32:37   that msg has an effect on them it's like [TS]

00:32:41   Jenny McCarthy level of craziness [TS]

00:32:44   because all of the science people and [TS]

00:32:46   all of the food people say no that's not [TS]

00:32:48   true you do not feel msg but they're [TS]

00:32:52   wrong [TS]

00:32:53   yeah i'm a member of the cult of msg [TS]

00:33:24   nascent powers that you're not even [TS]

00:33:26   aware of from day to day [TS]

00:33:27   that's exactly right you get a window of [TS]

00:33:29   possibility when you when you feel the [TS]

00:33:31   msg things start to happen you're [TS]

00:33:32   noticing things you never noticed before [TS]

00:36:54   are a lot of problems right now in the [TS]

00:36:56   northwest and one of them is that I was [TS]

00:36:59   also just recently in portland and [TS]

00:37:01   there's a there's a the popular ice [TS]

00:37:04   cream shop down there now is called [TS]

00:37:05   something like yeah the Salton salt & [TS]

00:37:09   straw [TS]

00:37:09   yes it's straight it's pretty fancy it's [TS]

00:37:12   pretty fancy and you and and they hand [TS]

00:37:14   you a menu of like 14 different kinds of [TS]

00:37:16   ice cream [TS]

00:37:17   I can't wait like an hour it's nuts you [TS]

00:37:19   gotta wait an hour and the ice cream [TS]

00:37:20   flavors are salted licorice shoe-leather [TS]

00:37:24   bananas flambé with anchovies wooden [TS]

00:37:30   comb and he'll eat shit you guys like [TS]

00:37:33   come on one just one flavor too clever [TS]

00:37:36   too clever by half [TS]

00:37:38   yeah one flavor 11 flavor that is not [TS]

00:37:41   for that it where it's not an experience [TS]

00:37:44   I just we caught on somebody's twirly [TS]

00:37:46   moustache [TS]

00:37:47   I just want some fucking ice cream rose [TS]

00:37:48   i will lead a scoop of vanilla right now [TS]

00:37:51   except that your vanilla is laced with [TS]

00:37:53   lavender I don't want lab I you know I [TS]

00:37:57   have to tell you I don't want to sound [TS]

00:37:59   touchy but I I think I have a bone to [TS]

00:38:01   pick with people who are anti vanilla I [TS]

00:38:03   think vanilla can be very very good [TS]

00:38:05   it's vanilla is not vanilla vanilla is [TS]

00:38:07   not boring when you get a really good [TS]

00:38:09   like a you know what they're related the [TS]

00:38:11   real vanilla bean taste to it [TS]

00:38:14   God that can be so good even look at [TS]

00:38:16   some of the Athena haagen-dazs the [TS]

00:38:18   Hadassah what's called vanilla bean so [TS]

00:38:21   I'm gonna be good [TS]

00:38:22   that's a good as ice cream [TS]

00:38:24   you know up here in the northwest we [TS]

00:38:25   have the we have to look alright that's [TS]

00:38:28   the creamery that's the creamery and [TS]

00:38:30   that tillamook makes ice cream and it's [TS]

00:38:32   not it's not which it it's not like [TS]

00:38:34   premium ice cream but it's ice cream [TS]

00:38:37   that I support I support them mostly [TS]

00:38:39   because it has a northwestern pedigree [TS]

00:38:42   and they have like five different kinds [TS]

00:38:44   of vanilla but there's one called [TS]

00:38:47   old-fashioned vanilla and I just get it [TS]

00:38:52   reflexively because if you put [TS]

00:38:53   old-fashioned in front of something I [TS]

00:38:54   just immediately feel like I'm at [TS]

00:38:56   Farrell's ice cream shop and somebody [TS]

00:38:58   with the with the arm garter and a [TS]

00:39:01   bowler hat is coming over and [TS]

00:39:03   rollerskating yeah it's your birthday [TS]

00:39:05   and so I get that old-fashioned vanilla [TS]

00:39:09   and the thing about vanilla ice cream [TS]

00:39:11   for me the first two bites are ambrosia [TS]

00:39:14   and then like everything it just sort of [TS]

00:39:18   dulls your senses and it turns into a [TS]

00:39:20   menu just like cream and lard in your [TS]

00:39:22   mouth as fast as you can to try and get [TS]

00:39:25   the to try and make the screaming [TS]

00:39:26   stopped the promise Seattle has to do [TS]

00:39:28   with shakes get to me fancy ice creams [TS]

00:39:31   you can't get like a normal shape are [TS]

00:39:33   they are sandals on [TS]

00:39:34   oh no I think ninety-nine percent of the [TS]

00:39:35   time when you go to when you go to get a [TS]

00:39:37   milkshake in Seattle you have chocolate [TS]

00:39:39   vanilla strawberry but then you have [TS]

00:39:41   other up you know you can get raspberry [TS]

00:40:11   you like to see in dining technologies [TS]

00:40:13   that is to encourage a certain cut way [TS]

00:40:16   of eating or to open up the idea that [TS]

00:40:17   this could be what you wanted to be what [TS]

00:40:19   would you like to see when you go to a [TS]

00:41:24   shit you get a giant table i also like [TS]

00:41:26   the idea first of all everything is okay [TS]

00:41:28   like whatever you want if you want a [TS]

00:41:29   weird way we'll make it that way if you [TS]

00:41:31   want a weird portion size will make it [TS]

00:41:33   will do the extent we can we will try to [TS]

00:41:35   make that work and price it accordingly [TS]

00:41:37   no restrictions there should be a [TS]

00:41:38   minimal number of restrictions and it's [TS]

00:41:40   not because the chef is is fucking high [TS]

00:41:42   strong and doesn't like to marrek like I [TS]

00:41:44   want to merge onto marrek em right [TS]

00:41:46   that's another one because the other one [TS]

00:41:48   I know this is going to be difficult [TS]

00:41:49   like I looked at the 13 coins menu just [TS]

00:41:51   now for like an hour not fantastic menu [TS]

00:41:54   but like I you know it seems like you go [TS]

00:41:56   to somebody's gonna get Danny's and [TS]

00:41:57   everything's price like a Denny's you [TS]

00:41:59   good with 13 coins are now got you [TS]

00:42:01   everything is price that way i like to [TS]

00:42:02   see some more variation where I could [TS]

00:42:05   get in $80 tomahawk steak [TS]

00:42:08   uh I could also get a pretty good [TS]

00:42:10   three-dollar grilled cheese to top it [TS]

00:42:12   with interesting i wonder how that would [TS]

00:42:15   work i wonder if that would actually be [TS]

00:42:17   a problem if your menu ginger gamut [TS]

00:42:22   well i just i wonder if I want you know [TS]

00:42:25   it's that the thing where people always [TS]

00:42:26   buy the thing in the middle right [TS]

00:42:29   I don't know if you'd ever sure every [TS]

00:42:31   once in a while some some guy and [TS]

00:42:32   oppressed shirt with a gaudy watch is [TS]

00:42:37   going to order the $80 steak just to [TS]

00:42:39   lord it over everybody right but how [TS]

00:42:42   long were you can have that sitting in [TS]

00:42:43   the fridge before that guy comes in [TS]

00:42:45   oh you got to be so careful with that [TS]

00:42:47   and I i have to tell you if it's a [TS]

00:42:48   certain price and I don't want to be [TS]

00:42:50   normal not normative here but if it's a [TS]

00:42:52   certain price restaurant and they have [TS]

00:42:54   lobster on the menu or they've got too [TS]

00:42:56   many different kinds of seafood i will [TS]

00:42:58   steer away from that you'll avoid the [TS]

00:43:00   lobster but like what if you love kebabs [TS]

00:43:03   but you're avoiding lamb [TS]

00:43:05   what if you want a grilled cheese kebab [TS]

00:43:06   like whatever it is you want i would [TS]

00:43:09   love a place that would do to the extent [TS]

00:43:10   possible try to make an interesting if [TS]

00:43:12   we want to get if we win how about this [TS]

00:43:14   what if you want the $80 tomahawk steak [TS]

00:43:16   as an appetizer for the table [TS]

00:46:39   sauce whole well yeah it's a few you do [TS]

00:46:44   have a sauce whole I do too but I don't [TS]

00:46:46   think I don't think other people care [TS]

00:46:47   about sauce like we do I don't think [TS]

00:46:49   they thought about it enough to get an [TS]

00:46:51   education issue it's an education issue [TS]

00:46:53   and the thing is you can't think about [TS]

00:46:54   sauce you have to do about sauce in a [TS]

00:46:58   sister you know what I'm saying like s [TS]

00:47:00   the songs you have to you have to you [TS]

00:47:03   have to live the sauce and that's how [TS]

00:47:05   you know that you want the sauce the [TS]

00:47:07   song yet the sauce has to come you have [TS]

00:47:08   to go how their capers in this song [TS]

00:47:11   los that the education part is important [TS]

00:47:13   John you have to be aware of the sauce [TS]

00:47:15   and open to the sauce because here's [TS]

00:47:17   what you're thinking if you're one of [TS]

00:47:17   these people it's not that people are [TS]

00:47:19   dumb where the people are unaware [TS]

00:47:21   they're not educated there's kind of [TS]

00:47:23   dumb and sort of unaware about sausage [TS]

00:47:25   yeah so they're thinking if you've [TS]

00:47:26   already gone through this you you you [TS]

00:47:27   know this this is the thing people go [TS]

00:47:29   sauces there's already plenty of sauces [TS]

00:47:31   no there's not plenty of sauces go to [TS]

00:47:33   the grocery store and try to get [TS]

00:47:35   yourself some store made sauces and [TS]

00:47:36   gravies how's that look at all have you [TS]

00:47:38   ever have you ever bought a jar of gravy [TS]

00:47:41   and I was like to all of the gravy's [TS]

00:47:42   it's a literal abortion it's simple bad [TS]

00:47:45   constant part of this one day I went and [TS]

00:47:48   I tried about four envelopes from [TS]

00:47:50   McCormick's and I tried some of this [TS]

00:47:51   chicken tonight type of abortions and [TS]

00:47:53   brought it home [TS]

00:47:54   they were all awful i could have shat [TS]

00:47:56   better sauce yep yep and you know it up [TS]

00:47:58   for me I i have felt like the day that [TS]

00:48:00   they can put gravy and a can or in a jar [TS]

00:48:04   and have it even remotely resemble gravy [TS]

00:48:07   is the day that I would go on a manned [TS]

00:48:10   mission to Mars [TS]

00:48:11   I mean sure this is the thing I the [TS]

00:48:13   number one thing that is inhibiting me [TS]

00:48:16   from going to Mars [TS]

00:48:17   aside from not having been invited is [TS]

00:48:20   the idea that i'm gonna get up there and [TS]

00:48:23   there's going to be a you know it's [TS]

00:48:24   going to be Thanksgiving and we're going [TS]

00:48:26   to open up our bags of like gonna get a [TS]

00:48:29   tube of Turkey to ya youtuber turkey [TS]

00:48:32   dinner and I'm gonna be like yeah I'm on [TS]

00:48:34   the way to Mars I'm a but I'm a historic [TS]

00:48:36   pioneer and then you're going to take [TS]

00:48:39   that first taste of gravy and it's going [TS]

00:48:41   to taste like somebody burned a plastic [TS]

00:48:44   bag and you're gonna say what the what [TS]

00:48:49   the fuck get me back to earth [TS]

00:48:52   you can make that noise I can't do this [TS]

00:48:55   I can't do this they know about assault [TS]

00:48:58   in the world can mask this terrible [TS]

00:49:00   gravy has got to be paper hats [TS]

00:49:05   it's got to be flexibility there should [TS]

00:49:07   be sanitary that to me you don't need a [TS]

00:49:09   ton of sauce we've covered sauces and [TS]

00:49:10   gravies a little bit in the past i want [TS]

00:49:12   to talk about it too much but who but i [TS]

00:49:15   think a sausage gravy a nice brown gravy [TS]

00:49:17   but now i'm told by our listeners that [TS]

00:49:20   I'm overthinking the sausage gravy think [TS]

00:49:22   that sausage gravy is actually trivially [TS]

00:49:24   easy to make [TS]

00:49:24   if you have you heard this uh well i [TS]

00:49:28   would like to see it made [TS]

00:49:31   well you go and look at a recipe it [TS]

00:49:32   looks complicated but apparently it's [TS]

00:49:34   pretty much as simple as crumble up some [TS]

00:49:36   sausage put in some butter and cream and [TS]

00:49:40   then you know its salt pepper and you've [TS]

00:49:41   got sausage gravy but i don't see I feel [TS]

00:49:44   like I want to fact check it a little [TS]

00:49:45   bit but look but look at it seems like [TS]

00:49:48   there should be a way like to have a [TS]

00:49:49   restaurant that thing is it could be a [TS]

00:49:50   big restaurant 13 coins pretty [TS]

00:49:52   good-sized right [TS]

00:49:53   yep you know why I'm gonna put the show [TS]

00:49:56   that's the booths on my couch I can't be [TS]

00:49:58   this is going away i'm so sad [TS]

00:50:00   well it hasn't happened yet I mean [TS]

00:50:01   there's a lot of things a lot of things [TS]

00:50:03   that they say are going away and then [TS]

00:50:06   they don't go away a lot of things that [TS]

00:50:08   they don't tell you are going away just [TS]

00:50:11   go away in the middle of the night that [TS]

00:50:13   they tore down two blocks of businesses [TS]

00:50:18   and apartment buildings on Broadway to [TS]

00:50:21   build the new subway stop em [TS]

00:50:27   Seattle is you know very excited about [TS]

00:50:29   our big subway that is opening finally [TS]

00:50:31   after after decades after 50 years of [TS]

00:50:35   talking about internal or longer we [TS]

00:50:38   finally now have our subway which goes [TS]

00:50:41   from the University to downtown and it [TS]

00:50:45   has three stops university one stop on [TS]

00:50:50   capitol hill and then downtown so it's a [TS]

00:50:52   three-stop train it cost 80 billion [TS]

00:50:56   dollars to build i'll come on [TS]

00:50:58   well maybe not 80 but is up there just a [TS]

00:51:01   billion dollars to build ya a 400 people [TS]

00:51:05   lost their lives [TS]

00:51:06   what no nobody lost their lives anymore [TS]

00:51:10   i'm so glad you finally out of that [TS]

00:51:13   racing you can tell the truth you can [TS]

00:51:14   speak the truth different ways but what [TS]

00:51:16   they really what they did was they tore [TS]

00:51:17   down two blocks of kind of you know they [TS]

00:51:19   weren't the greatest businesses but it [TS]

00:51:22   was it was it was one of those like [TS]

00:51:25   stretches of businesses where there was [TS]

00:51:29   the indian food restaurant there was the [TS]

00:51:31   bong store yes but there was also the [TS]

00:51:33   kitty cat bookstore [TS]

00:51:35   there was the state-owned liquor store [TS]

00:51:38   there were 4-5 business 45 storefronts [TS]

00:51:43   where you could for awhile open a store [TS]

00:51:46   that sold nothing but butane lighters [TS]

00:51:47   and swords you can open a store that [TS]

00:51:51   sold like African imports that was [TS]

00:51:54   perpetually going out of business we [TS]

00:51:56   call it the eternal flame right the [TS]

00:51:58   store that we opened with a [TS]

00:52:00   going-out-of-business sale and it was [TS]

00:52:01   always going out of business [TS]

00:52:03   ok like all those places where if you [TS]

00:52:06   wanted to sell magic the gathering cards [TS]

00:52:08   and have a fan of folding table where [TS]

00:52:11   people could play cards in the middle of [TS]

00:52:12   the day like you could open a store in [TS]

00:52:15   one of these places they tore them all [TS]

00:52:17   down including like an old apartment [TS]

00:52:19   building and and the Minotaur the great [TS]

00:52:22   coffee shop down the Godfather's Pizza [TS]

00:52:24   where I used to sleep during the day [TS]

00:52:25   when I didn't have a place to live [TS]

00:52:29   normal down to build this subway and [TS]

00:52:31   they built a huge fence around the hole [TS]

00:52:33   2 square blocks so you couldn't see what [TS]

00:52:36   was going on was like what's going on in [TS]

00:52:38   there you know they're building [TS]

00:52:39   something they're digging a big hole and [TS]

00:52:43   then just the other day took the fence [TS]

00:52:44   down to reveal that at least so far all [TS]

00:52:51   they've built there is one of those [TS]

00:52:54   municipal like west coast municipal [TS]

00:52:59   style stuff subway tunnel entrance kiosk [TS]

00:53:04   bulbs mean steps [TS]

00:53:08   uh well because of the because of [TS]

00:53:11   because Seattle as it has a geography [TS]

00:53:14   that really is not at all suited to [TS]

00:53:18   subways the only way to access the [TS]

00:53:21   tunnel is by express elevator so there's [TS]

00:53:26   nose-down know there's no escalate [TS]

00:53:29   that's a terrible idea [TS]

00:53:31   oh I know you need that for people with [TS]

00:53:33   motion things though I don't want to [TS]

00:53:35   only way [TS]

00:53:36   express elevator because it's so deep [TS]

00:53:38   under the ground so we're going to slide [TS]

00:53:41   so here's how you access this thing you [TS]

00:53:43   get on an elevator with a bunch of [TS]

00:53:45   strangers [TS]

00:53:47   and go down so deep into the ground that [TS]

00:53:51   you can't even take a stair if you [TS]

00:53:54   wanted to and that's that's their [TS]

00:53:58   proposed like where we're all supposed [TS]

00:54:00   to just be like fine with that but [TS]

00:54:02   leaving that aside what what they have [TS]

00:54:06   done is they took away they took away [TS]

00:54:08   two blocks of businesses and and [TS]

00:54:09   departments and my presumption was [TS]

00:54:12   behind that giant wall when they were [TS]

00:54:13   beavering away at digging their whole [TS]

00:54:15   but they also had a plan to build a [TS]

00:54:18   six-story building with apartments and [TS]

00:54:20   ground floor retail in added at what is [TS]

00:54:24   basically the busiest intersection on [TS]

00:54:28   Capitol Hill certainly but one of the [TS]

00:54:30   busiest intersections in the town and [TS]

00:54:32   they took the wall down and it's just [TS]

00:54:34   like it's basically a elevator door and [TS]

00:54:40   so I see what you mean you mean like the [TS]

00:54:42   kind of thing you'd see like in civic [TS]

00:54:44   center [TS]

00:54:45   yeah there's just this creepy elevator [TS]

00:54:47   tip it's just an elevator door sticking [TS]

00:54:49   out of a plaza [TS]

00:54:50   oh that sounds very anticlimactic after [TS]

00:54:52   all the wall it's terribly [TS]

00:54:54   anti-climactic and I just look at it I'm [TS]

00:54:56   like well what's gonna happen here now [TS]

00:54:57   like what [TS]

00:55:00   there's no commerce happening there's no [TS]

00:55:02   no one can live here [TS]

00:55:04   that's so depressing John it's basically [TS]

00:55:06   cut one end of broadway off from the [TS]

00:55:08   other end because you're gonna walk [TS]

00:55:09   along Broadway you're gonna be looking [TS]

00:55:10   at the shop windows you're going to come [TS]

00:59:47   how many elevators are there extant I [TS]

00:59:49   don't know if you've ever ridden a [TS]

00:59:52   municipal elevator that just opens into [TS]

00:59:55   a part i spent just under 49 years [TS]

00:59:58   avoiding municipal elevator [TS]

00:59:58   avoiding municipal elevator [TS]

01:00:00   because I know it's just a moving toilet [TS]

01:00:02   yeah well that's exactly right like if I [TS]

01:00:04   municipal elevator people need them here [TS]

01:00:06   and i'll get a pop of my thoughts [TS]

01:00:08   sometimes but hey the elevators Bart [TS]

01:00:09   elevators are out at civic center or [TS]

01:00:11   wherever but like people just shit [TS]

01:00:13   that's what they are they're just moving [TS]

01:00:14   jitters [TS]

01:00:14   I mean about an elevator in a city [TS]

01:00:16   building where they lock the doors at [TS]

01:00:18   night and they have cleaning crews those [TS]

01:00:21   elevators most of the time don't work [TS]

01:00:23   and are like yeah right people use them [TS]

01:00:27   as bathrooms now [TS]

01:00:28   picture an elevator that's just open to [TS]

01:00:30   the world and and tell me even if they [TS]

01:00:34   had 20 banks of them and even if they [TS]

01:00:36   were the fastest self-cleaning elevators [TS]

01:00:39   in the world are you its there's so many [TS]

01:00:43   points of failure would you ever get on [TS]

01:00:45   one I would not ever get on one how [TS]

01:00:47   long's the ride [TS]

01:00:48   kinda like 11 minutes haha oh I mean it [TS]

01:00:53   was like an 11-minute elevator ride [TS]

01:00:57   every day [TS]

01:00:58   basically it feels like you would be [TS]

01:01:00   with your standing there like my the [TS]

01:01:02   chilean miner am I the chilean miner I'm [TS]

01:01:05   gonna get on this elevator all i want to [TS]

01:01:06   do is take a film average and I'm gonna [TS]

01:01:09   get on this I'm gonna go down and then [TS]

01:01:11   and then I'm gonna be down there they're [TS]

01:01:12   gonna be drilling a hole and sending me [TS]

01:01:14   like cheese sandwiches through a whole [TS]

01:01:16   there's only one stop at the top ground [TS]

01:01:18   level and there's one stop at the subway [TS]

01:01:20   you're gonna get the satisfying king of [TS]

01:01:22   making progress right is there a [TS]

01:01:24   thermometer to show you when you get [TS]

01:01:25   closer to the subway [TS]

01:01:26   it's a really good question you haven't [TS]

01:01:28   been on this have you what it's not open [TS]

01:01:30   you should get a tour [TS]

01:01:31   the thing is this is why would i would [TS]

01:01:33   have loved a tour and when during my [TS]

01:01:34   political almost came in second for an [TS]

01:01:36   election you should be one of the first [TS]

01:01:38   people in that elevator and now during [TS]

01:01:41   my aspirin days there there were people [TS]

01:01:45   who were already you know public [TS]

01:01:49   officers who were given like advanced [TS]

01:01:52   rides on the train and it looks amazing [TS]

01:01:54   it looks really cool because Seattle has [TS]

01:01:57   never had a subway and also since the [TS]

01:02:00   subway only has three stops it's just a [TS]

01:02:05   huge long tunnel that the train go [TS]

01:02:07   really fast [TS]

01:02:09   you know this that I gotta read about [TS]

01:02:10   this this sounds read this sounds I got [TS]

01:02:12   you know it sounds like I John you know [TS]

01:02:14   me i do not use this word lightly I [TS]

01:02:16   think this sounds like a boondoggle [TS]

01:02:17   seattle is so characterized by [TS]

01:02:21   boondoggles that I don't even know [TS]

01:02:23   anymore whether you know I have to [TS]

01:02:26   really resist the impulse to start [TS]

01:02:29   saying things like Seattle gets what it [TS]

01:02:31   deserves because it consistently votes [TS]

01:02:35   against good practical things including [TS]

01:02:40   me and it boats for like a kind of rule [TS]

01:02:45   by committee process that produces half [TS]

01:02:51   acid- but also mega mega expensive half [TS]

01:02:57   acid- so it's like okay we've got the [TS]

01:03:00   train which wich strokes like in [TS]

01:03:06   nineteen visit rain feels like no I [TS]

01:03:08   gotta tell you what you're saying like [TS]

01:03:09   the outline of that is old trains trains [TS]

01:03:11   are great subways are great [TS]

01:03:12   yeah exactly it sounds to me like [TS]

01:03:14   they're very attracted to these novel [TS]

01:03:16   solutions that don't actually address [TS]

01:03:17   the problem and here's the thing i feel [TS]

01:03:19   like in 1967 when we when we proposed [TS]

01:03:23   building a network of subways here and [TS]

01:03:25   it was voted down by the voters in 1967 [TS]

01:03:29   if we had used the technology available [TS]

01:03:30   to us at the time to build a subway [TS]

01:03:32   network we would have built up a [TS]

01:03:38   perfectly good network of interconnected [TS]

01:03:41   trains using 1967 technology we could [TS]

01:03:44   have done it using 1912 technology and [TS]

01:03:49   built up built a workable system but [TS]

01:03:52   what ends up happening out here is that [TS]

01:03:54   we don't do it don't do it don't do it [TS]

01:03:55   and then when it's finally time to do it [TS]

01:03:58   we decide on the one hand that that the [TS]

01:04:03   people who are pushing for the subway [TS]

01:04:05   are the people who are like still mad [TS]

01:04:08   that we didn't do it 50 years ago so so [TS]

01:04:11   in a way the plan is based on this like [TS]

01:04:14   almost retro desire to do [TS]

01:04:17   have to finally have the thing that we [TS]

01:04:19   should have had but then other people [TS]

01:04:21   attach themselves to it who are who are [TS]

01:04:25   like well you know what tunnel drilling [TS]

01:04:28   technology has really improved in the [TS]

01:04:30   last 40 years and now we can build the [TS]

01:04:33   real technologically advanced super [TS]

01:04:37   version of this thing and so what was [TS]

01:04:42   cool and quaint and good about the idea [TS]

01:04:45   from 50 years ago now gets turned into a [TS]

01:04:49   thing where it's like well modern [TS]

01:04:50   technology requires that we put this [TS]

01:04:53   thing's 500 feet underground which means [TS]

01:04:56   that every time we build the station it [TS]

01:04:58   cost another billion dollars so in order [TS]

01:05:01   to keep prices down we can't build that [TS]

01:05:03   many stations so we're only gonna have [TS]

01:05:05   one station and it's going to be 500 [TS]

01:05:09   feet underground indefinitely [TS]

01:05:13   suddenly you're so many intellectual and [TS]

01:05:16   practical steps away from a good idea [TS]

01:05:18   yeah but it's still it's still kind of a [TS]

01:05:20   good idea it's just there each one of [TS]

01:05:22   those steps took off like twenty to [TS]

01:05:24   fifty percent of the coolness [TS]

01:05:26   yeah the coolness of the technology now [TS]

01:05:28   is dictating the usefulness of the train [TS]

01:05:31   which is only useful if it is accessible [TS]

01:05:36   and the accessibility people who are [TS]

01:05:41   like we'll wait a moment like like I [TS]

01:05:44   don't even know if I would ever take the [TS]

01:05:46   stairs but I'd like there to be some [TS]

01:05:48   stairs [TS]

01:05:49   that's just a comfort level thing I you [TS]

01:05:52   know like I'd like to Baja to smell the [TS]

01:05:55   fresh air [TS]

01:05:57   I look up and see the daylight even from [TS]

01:05:59   500 feet below like but they're like [TS]

01:06:02   well you have to be a raging [TS]

01:06:03   claustrophobic to find that a little bit [TS]

01:06:05   unsettling [TS]

01:06:06   oh my god or just get out you know I [TS]

01:06:07   don't want to get on an elevator unless [TS]

01:06:09   I really really have to let alone if [TS]

01:06:12   that's my concentration three stories i [TS]

01:06:14   will almost always take the steps [TS]

01:06:16   yeah and that's the thing this the [TS]

01:06:18   subway is not fewer than three stories [TS]

01:06:20   and secondly since a couple there i [TS]

01:06:21   don't know this is the same station but [TS]

01:06:23   it looks like it's about i would [TS]

01:06:24   estimate three others were 46 stories [TS]

01:06:27   and 100 stories 300 this [TS]

01:06:30   100 stories down three to seven hundred [TS]

01:06:32   stories everything is you know that just [TS]

01:06:34   the spitball to be against it to be [TS]

01:06:38   getting nowhere but i don't think that [TS]

01:06:39   that is that the mighty this other 1i [TS]

01:06:44   sent you to who [TS]

01:06:46   there's something look like they have [TS]

01:06:47   escalators it's hard to do a podcast and [TS]

01:06:49   you extensive internet research who [TS]

01:06:51   Westhead house I think that you're [TS]

01:06:54   looking this one that has no no see [TS]

01:06:57   that's beacon hill so that's not even [TS]

01:06:58   that's not the one the big wide one what [TS]

01:07:01   is that construction of a brand-new [TS]

01:07:03   someone that's the University of [TS]

01:07:06   Washington so what you're looking for is [TS]

01:07:07   the capitol hill station [TS]

01:07:10   okay and I think you will find see that [TS]

01:07:15   this this this one that you sent me from [TS]

01:07:18   the University of Washington that looks [TS]

01:07:19   like a decent subway station it's like [TS]

01:07:21   45 stories underground got some elevator [TS]

01:07:23   sure but they're escalators to the [TS]

01:07:26   beacon hill one does not have well let's [TS]

01:07:32   let's try to chase though the CD current [TS]

01:07:34   number and see I'm trying to get [TS]

01:07:38   thinking here of like the way that they [TS]

01:07:39   built the essential subway system in san [TS]

01:07:43   francisco and how even today people [TS]

01:07:45   laugh at that because it's a diagonal [TS]

01:07:47   line like that's the subways but but it [TS]

01:07:49   actually does it is it does serve a [TS]

01:07:51   purpose i mean it is extremely busy [TS]

01:07:54   during the day and the stops are pretty [TS]

01:07:56   saying like but they move a lot of [TS]

01:07:58   people over that whatever that 22 23 [TS]

01:08:01   miles and it does it [TS]

01:08:03   I can't imagine not having it because [TS]

01:08:05   now I mean now they're like try to get [TS]

01:08:07   less and less stuff on market street [TS]

01:08:08   because it's such a shitshow on market [TS]

01:08:10   street right now i mean i think they [TS]

01:08:12   recently passed a law about wasn't no [TS]

01:08:16   private cars during the day or something [TS]

01:08:17   you can't like make a left turn on there [TS]

01:08:20   anyway there's all kinds of things are [TS]

01:08:21   trying to do with that what a mess [TS]

01:08:24   I mean it's all it's all a mess and I [TS]

01:08:26   and I really don't wanna I don't wanna [TS]

01:08:28   to slip into this posture of like [TS]

01:08:31   Seattle just [TS]

01:08:33   seattle just deserve what it gets [TS]

01:08:36   because because something about the [TS]

01:08:40   process of making decisions here is so [TS]

01:08:42   irretrievably broken and has been for so [TS]

01:08:46   long that it's just it's baked into it [TS]

01:08:50   you know like you cannot propose [TS]

01:08:52   something good here without it being [TS]

01:08:57   ruined [TS]

01:08:57   not not by any one person not by the [TS]

01:09:01   big-money interests but just by a [TS]

01:09:03   collective action of people here that [TS]

01:09:07   that that combination of like a busybody [TS]

01:09:10   NIMBY Democrat yeah I don't like this [TS]

01:09:15   person already you know what I mean like [TS]

01:09:17   they just everybody's got to have [TS]

01:09:19   everybody's gotta stand up at the public [TS]

01:09:21   meeting and say their two cents and and [TS]

01:09:24   and yet you know there's it never gets [TS]

01:09:28   like at the end of the meeting they just [TS]

01:09:31   adjourn until the next meeting no [TS]

01:09:33   decision ever really gets made until [TS]

01:09:35   it's just too late and then the decision [TS]

01:09:37   gets made by somebody in you know by [TS]

01:09:40   some buddy in an office somewhere who [TS]

01:09:44   just had to you know just had to choose [TS]
