[TS]
00:01:26
◼

untucked an unconscious not an
[TS]
00:01:29
◼

unconscious but I had an identity and
[TS]
00:01:32
◼

visceral reaction to it but I didn't
[TS]
00:01:34
◼

know what I was reacting to and as soon
[TS]
00:01:37

[TS]
00:01:39
◼

like frying some bacon and like
[TS]
00:01:55
◼

of the annoying things that female voice

00:03:20
◼

00:03:21
◼
►
listening to radio you hear all of this
[TS]
00:03:24
◼

00:03:26
◼
►
because you and I on this program and
[TS]
00:03:29
◼
►
again i know that some of our listeners
[TS]
00:03:31
◼
►
are are are opposed to me breaking the
[TS]
00:03:36
◼
►
fourth wall or even the third wall
[TS]
00:03:39
◼
►
listeners talking about the anonymous
[TS]
00:03:44
◼
►
letter but you and I are voice artists

[TS]
00:03:52
◼
►
snot although fortunately fortunately
[TS]
00:03:56
◼
►
hmm we have never had to we've never had
[TS]
00:03:58
◼
►
to describe our art as ever
[TS]
00:04:00
◼
►
exploring the intersections between
[TS]
00:04:02
◼
►
anything
[TS]
00:04:04
◼
►
that's not that's one of the things that
[TS]
00:04:05
◼
►
I'm really immediately allanon you like
[TS]
00:04:08
◼
►
it when people explore intersections
[TS]
00:04:09
◼
►
John I just I feel like whenever i see
[TS]
00:04:11
◼
►
an artist say that their work explores
[TS]
00:04:13
◼
►
the intersections between I'm just like
[TS]
00:04:16
◼
►
I put the brochure down i turn away from
[TS]
00:04:19
◼
►
the gallery wall and i say i do not want
[TS]
00:04:22
◼
►
to i did not want to explore
[TS]
00:04:24
◼
►
intersections with you
[TS]
00:04:25
◼
►
artist and I as an artist have been
[TS]
00:04:29
◼
►
fortunate never tapped to explore an
[TS]
00:04:31
◼
►
intersection hand that I don't and I
[TS]
00:04:34
◼
►
don't want us to do it on this program
[TS]
00:04:35
◼
►
it's it's funny if you think about like
[TS]
00:04:37
◼
►
you know reading interviews with
[TS]
00:04:39
◼
►
musicians you like or filmmakers you
[TS]
00:04:41
◼
►
like you know they'll sometimes talk a
[TS]
00:04:43
◼
►
little bit about technique
[TS]
00:04:45
◼
►
certainly but I mean let's talk about
[TS]
00:04:46
◼
►
him really practical terms but it seems
[TS]
00:04:48
◼
►
like today especially in the internet
[TS]
00:04:50
◼
►
related trades it's not uncommon at all
[TS]
00:04:53
◼
►
to talk a whole lot about your
[TS]
00:04:54
◼
►
philosophy before you've ever actually
[TS]
00:04:56
◼
►
yeah I'm talking about like what you're
[TS]
00:04:59
◼
►
what you think you will eventually
[TS]
00:05:01
◼
►
produce is going to be the intersection
[TS]
00:05:03
◼
►
of these two things that's right that's
[TS]
00:05:05
◼
►
right well i hope i hope that we put
[TS]
00:05:07
◼
►
into some small role in that in
[TS]
00:05:10
◼
►
encouraging young people to to really
[TS]
00:05:13
◼
►
put forth a philosophy before they've
[TS]
00:05:15
◼
►
ever really made anything
[TS]
00:05:16
◼
►
yeah every we lot of work lots of
[TS]
00:05:18
◼

persuasive theory as well as some would
[TS]
00:05:22
◼
►

of how not to run a political campaign

01:05:54
◼
►
it just because it really really seem to
[TS]
01:05:56
◼
►
find buy that kind of a lack of energy
[TS]
01:05:58
◼
►
and enthusiasm
[TS]
01:05:59
◼
►
yeah and it was i I have to imagine I
[TS]
01:06:02
◼
►
mean if some guy if some like balding
[TS]
01:06:04
◼
►
guy in a in a in a light blue suit

[TS]
01:06:27
◼
►
he never received that information
[TS]
01:06:28
◼
►
because no politician of any kind even a
[TS]
01:06:31
◼
►
lackadaisical one would say now I kinda
[TS]
01:06:35
◼
►
want to get to the hotel gonna catch
[TS]
01:06:37
◼
►
Carson you know so what it was was a
[TS]
01:06:39
◼
►
failure of the guy the balding guy in
[TS]
01:06:42
◼
►
the blue suit
[TS]
01:06:42
◼
►
whoo-hoo was concerned with timetables
[TS]
01:06:46
◼
►
Oh governor we're already late
[TS]
01:06:49
◼
►
we need to get back to the you know this
[TS]
01:06:50
◼
►
is the thing that never would have
[TS]
01:06:51
◼
►
happened with Bill Clinton right bill
[TS]
01:06:54
◼
►
clinton always stood he went he would go
[TS]
01:06:56
◼
►
out and shake that those people's hands
[TS]
01:06:58
◼
►
until two o'clock in the morning but
[TS]
01:07:00
◼
►
somebody you know the person whose job
[TS]
01:07:03
◼
►
it was and that was that was what was so
[TS]
01:07:05
◼
►
interesting about it because what stood
[TS]
01:07:07
◼
►
out to me was there is somebody whose
[TS]
01:07:09
◼
►
job this is but that person doesn't
[TS]
01:07:12
◼
►
recognize that this is their job they've
[TS]
01:07:15
◼
►
been given a job description they are
[TS]
01:07:18
◼
►
they are following that job description
[TS]
01:07:21
◼
►
that they are missing the fact that this
[TS]
01:07:23
◼
►
is their job actually
[TS]
01:07:25
◼
►
and so there is a there is this concept
[TS]
01:07:29
◼
►
of a job description which is um which
[TS]
01:07:34
◼
►
is solve problems as they arise or you
[TS]
01:07:37
◼
►
know in other ways just to think that
[TS]
01:07:38
◼
►
your your job you know I have this
[TS]
01:07:40
◼
►
feeling sometimes that I don't mean to
[TS]
01:07:42
◼
►
sound like mean or something but like
[TS]
01:07:44
◼
►
that you know once you get any kind of
[TS]
01:07:46
◼
►
to do anything good or big you
[TS]
01:07:49
◼
►
eventually need to have some structure
[TS]
01:07:50
◼
►
eventually like infrastructure and
[TS]
01:07:52
◼
►
bureaucracy to run anything the promise
[TS]
01:07:54
◼
►
once you introduce infrastructure and
[TS]
01:07:55
◼
►
bureaucracy to anything the
[TS]
01:07:56
◼
►
infrastructure and bureaucracy becomes
[TS]
01:07:58
◼
►
the most important part of the product
[TS]
01:07:59
◼
►
of the whole entire process in my
[TS]
01:08:01
◼
►
opinion the bureaucracy will always win
[TS]
01:08:03
◼
►
and I'll again unite we will not
[TS]
01:08:06
◼
►
clapping song from the eighties that
[TS]
01:08:08
◼
►
lyrics are always win with a
[TS]
01:08:13
◼
►
and so in this instance though you have
[TS]
01:08:15
◼
►
to understand like yes you're you're in
[TS]
01:08:17
◼
►
your job is certainly to do your
[TS]
01:08:18
◼
►
administrative stuff and make sure that
[TS]
01:08:20
◼
►
he doesn't get you know sniped or
[TS]
01:08:21
◼
►
anything like that but the motorway job
[TS]
01:08:23
◼
►
is in that campaign no matter who you
[TS]
01:08:25
◼
►
are is to notice an unrecognized
[TS]
01:08:27
◼
►
opportunity and capitalize on it because
[TS]
01:08:29
◼
►
that's a change in election
[TS]
01:08:31
◼
►
yeah it's looking like oh shit man
[TS]
01:08:33
◼
►
there's gotta be at least a couple
[TS]
01:08:34
◼
►
people in this one over 7,000 people
[TS]
01:08:36
◼
►
that could have a huge impact we don't
[TS]
01:08:37
◼
►
even know it it's not going to damage
[TS]
01:08:39
◼
►
more energy they're already here right
[TS]
01:08:41
◼
►
when no brainer to go out there as a
[TS]
01:08:42
◼
►
photo op and go oh he could've just
[TS]
01:08:44
◼
►
going to watch Carson but he came out
[TS]
01:08:45
◼
►
because it meant a lot to him to get in
[TS]
01:08:47
◼
►
touch with the people who believed him
[TS]
01:08:48
◼
►
in that program and it's the weird thing
[TS]
01:08:50
◼
►
about unity finders everybody's job on
[TS]
01:08:53
◼
►
that campaign is ultimately to get him
[TS]
01:08:55
◼
►
elected and so and i'm sure there was
[TS]
01:08:58
◼
►
sure the guy in the blue suit was like
[TS]
01:09:00
◼
►
well you know he probably he needs his
[TS]
01:09:04
◼
►
rest he's been going all day when this
[TS]
01:09:07
◼
►
is a this is Spokane Washington like
[TS]
01:09:10
◼
►
unimportant crowd an umbilical it's
[TS]
01:09:12
◼
►
better to conserve his energy you know
[TS]
01:09:15
◼
►
people making that kind of decision and
[TS]
01:09:18
◼
►
and making them making them incorrectly
[TS]
01:09:20
◼
►
because ultimately like everybody's job
[TS]
01:09:26
◼
►
is the same on that campaign and it is
[TS]
01:09:28
◼
►
to do whatever it takes to get him
[TS]
01:09:30
◼
►
elected and I mean not whatever it takes
[TS]
01:09:33
◼
►
whatever it takes within the law right

whatever ethic whatever it takes within
[TS]
01:09:37
◼
►
fxm the law but there's so much dynamism
[TS]
01:09:40
◼
►
in every campaign like in retrospect you
[TS]
01:09:42
◼
►
can see these big patterns and go well
[TS]
01:09:44
◼
►
really everything after this date it was
[TS]
01:09:45
◼
►
a foregone conclusion but you don't
