00:04:16.940 The woman who is virgin, one in herself, does what she does,
00:04:21.840 not because of any desire to please and not to be liked or to be approved,
00:04:25.660 even by herself, not because of any desire to gain power over another,
00:04:29.960 but because what she does is true.
00:04:32.560 Okay.
00:04:33.180 Now, I'm actually responding.
00:04:34.540 No, I know.
00:04:34.960 I'm responding.
00:04:35.720 Wait. 1.00
00:04:36.000 Fuck you. 1.00
00:04:37.180 Okay. 1.00
00:04:37.980 Because that sounds a little like, yeah, right? 0.95
00:04:39.580 We don't need to uplift the virgin any more than we have. 0.97
00:04:42.760 Well, pregnant unto herself, I think, like— 0.95
00:04:47.340 She's not waiting for seed.
00:04:50.500 This book is about the struggle to become conscious.
00:04:54.260 Well, there it is.
00:04:55.480 Okay.
00:04:56.480 It's about overcoming addictions.
00:04:58.460 See you there.
00:04:59.480 Okay, to food, drugs, work.
00:05:01.480 Internet.
00:05:02.080 Et cetera.
00:05:02.660 Scroll.
00:05:04.140 It is about the wisdom of the body.
00:05:05.940 Well, here we go.
00:05:08.500 Initiation rituals.
00:05:10.200 Because we're lacking them in Western culture and thus have nothing to hold on to.
00:05:14.600 Comma dreams.
00:05:16.400 The only truth.
00:05:17.860 Dreams are, dreams, and I'm going to say this once,
00:05:20.580 are more real than reality.
00:05:23.040 Thank you.
00:05:23.880 Keep going.
00:05:24.180 Thank you. 1.00
00:05:25.260 The pregnant virgin explores a process of change 0.98
00:05:29.120 akin to the metamorphosis of caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly. 0.98
00:05:33.480 Oh, okay.
00:05:35.160 We talk about change.
00:05:36.640 Does it ever happen?
00:05:37.820 We can change.
00:05:38.380 Well, guess what we do.
00:05:39.960 Oh.
00:05:40.600 It describes periods in the chrysalis when life as we know it is over
00:05:44.260 and we are effectively alone.
00:05:48.040 No longer who we were,
00:05:50.280 we know not who we may become.
00:05:56.380 That's a song.
00:05:57.460 It's making me whistle a song.
00:06:00.400 There's still a little more.
00:06:01.740 Okay, go, go, go.
00:06:02.520 Before you dive into the book.
00:06:03.520 One last big heard, okay?
00:06:05.280 Okay.
00:06:06.000 And I know which work we're going to analyze.
00:06:08.080 Wait, hang on.
00:06:08.800 I have said every year,
00:06:10.040 this is one of my New Year's resolutions,
00:06:11.360 I'm writing a letter to James Hollis
00:06:12.660 to thank him for his work.
00:06:13.660 Great.
00:06:14.260 Writing it down.
00:06:18.700 I have no connection to the elders.
00:06:21.620 And by the way, New Year goes through June 15th.
00:06:25.780 Thank you.
00:06:26.300 Absolutely.
00:06:26.920 All right, here we go.
00:06:27.860 At such times, and I know already which texts I've underlined and want to revisit.
00:06:31.720 Yeah.
00:06:31.900 Okay, but anyway, we'll talk about it.
00:06:33.440 At such times, a thinking heart can bring us closer to our inner virgin.
00:06:37.880 Hang on.
00:06:38.660 I'm fine.
00:06:39.360 I've relaxed.
00:06:39.880 Quote, one in herself, forever open to new life, new possibilities, our own unique truth.
00:06:47.400 Now, because I trust Marion Woodman, okay, deeply as a Jungian, like, if this was some
00:06:52.360 other, why does this virgin worship?
00:06:54.720 It's never a literal virgin.
00:06:56.500 It's not a literal child.
00:06:57.500 It's not a literal womb.
00:06:58.920 Okay.
00:06:59.700 But wait, wait.
00:07:00.240 I want to go back to the Christmas, okay?
00:07:01.860 Because a lot of people scoff when they hear the metamorphosis.
00:07:04.740 Oh, the caterpillar.
00:07:05.460 We've all heard it, right?
00:07:06.780 What do you see?
00:07:07.460 Well, this is Emily Dickinson.
00:07:10.420 I've heard this before.
00:07:12.020 Then sunrise kissed my chrysalis, and I stood up and lived.
00:07:17.120 Oh, my God.
00:07:19.520 Oh, yeah.
00:07:20.340 Okay.
00:07:21.140 Just recognizing other poetry.
00:07:22.540 Yeah.
00:07:23.320 I got you.
00:07:25.240 I got you.
00:07:26.160 Yeah, an old friend.
00:07:27.660 Yeah.
00:07:28.820 So.
00:07:29.320 D.H. Lawrence.
00:07:31.020 Anyway, just keep going.
00:07:32.920 To have your work.
00:07:33.920 By the way, I like This Is Good.
00:07:36.040 We just read the back.
00:07:37.180 No, that's what I'm saying.
00:07:38.040 I'm not about to go deeper.
00:07:39.080 No, I'm just saying.
00:07:39.700 But the point is, what can you get from it, right?
00:07:41.260 Even that.
00:07:41.680 So to me, the whole virgin thing.
00:07:43.900 Okay, I'm not sure.
00:07:45.060 Oh, wait.
00:07:45.440 No, this is pretty good.
00:07:46.080 There's a little more.
00:07:46.640 I forgot.

00:12:21.480 Give me more.
00:12:22.640 We'll move off of it.
00:12:23.580 I swear to God.
00:12:24.560 But this just gets me horny.
00:12:25.940 I just looked in the middle of a D.H. Lawrence poem.
00:12:29.720 Religion knows that Jesus was never Jesus. 1.00
00:12:33.220 You fucking lunatics. 1.00
00:12:37.500 God, that's cool. 1.00
00:12:40.360 Okay.
00:12:41.120 I'm just reading on air quietly.
00:12:43.780 By the way, us reading on air, that could be huge bonus content.
00:12:47.520 Silently, I mean.
00:12:48.140 Yeah, we're all doing it together.
00:12:49.400 Yeah.
00:12:49.840 I think that's great.
00:12:51.420 Epic.
00:12:52.600 Epic.
00:12:53.620 Epic.
00:12:54.580 See, I did it again.
00:12:55.200 You lost it.
00:12:55.680 Epic.
00:12:56.820 I think you should think of it that was an epic epic.
00:12:58.700 You and I remember, I have a strong memory of being, I don't know, 14, reading out loud in class, terrifying.
00:13:06.620 Always.
00:13:07.180 Still terrified.
00:13:08.180 Yeah. 0.99
00:13:08.380 Fucking terrified. 0.99
00:13:10.560 And the word zealot was there. 0.99
00:13:12.660 And I saw it coming.
00:13:14.440 And I remember going, I know what zealot means.
00:13:16.720 Okay, I know this word.
00:13:19.300 I got nervous.
00:13:20.360 I said zealot.
00:13:21.420 okay okay you panicked and said zelot yeah yeah yeah and then you know what i also did i remember
00:13:28.440 one time at passover many many years ago here it comes it's my herb well that one okay hold on
00:13:34.200 don't tell me don't tell me it's an eliezer don't tell me okay because it's it's a name
00:13:40.960 in the haggadah right now hold on am i am i it's not one of the rabbis like rabbi eliezer told us
00:13:47.960 okay it's not moses it's not pharaoh it's a little guy the little little character 0.97
00:13:53.520 little freak bastard who i don't know no what's his name 0.86
00:13:57.900 so i said oh i knew it right before you said it okay i said esau and i kept saying it i mean 0.96
00:14:08.260 let's get real okay okay esau and esau and then i don't know what see i would have like i knew it
00:14:15.480 But also, and also, but aren't these kind of like, you know, bastardizations already?
00:14:21.020 Totally.
00:14:21.860 I mean.
00:14:22.380 But the pain.
00:14:23.480 And then are you, and gripped by this thing of pronouncing a word wrong.
00:14:27.580 It's like, what is that?
00:14:28.640 And then when another person pronounces a word wrong, do you feel pleasure at their mistake?
00:14:35.680 Well, it's.
00:14:36.680 There's a certain pleasure of just the human folly and we all.
00:14:39.940 Right.
00:14:40.160 There's like, there's like a mirror.
00:14:41.780 Let's get into it.
00:14:42.560 If you thought I was about to say, no, never.
00:14:44.400 Okay.
00:14:44.500 no it's a sense of relief okay yeah that i think there's a few angles right i think one might be
00:14:49.900 like we feel that's a freebie almost well i mean sure but is that really what we're talking about
00:14:55.260 we can go there after we can walk it back to compassion i love feeling compassion no but i
00:15:03.340 think it's like you're like it really i guess it really depends i guess it depends but on sort of
00:15:09.860 The dynamic, okay, being the person.
00:15:11.420 But, yeah, just to hear someone kind of go, like, I remember in a reading thing, like, in second grade,
00:15:19.260 it was, like, sitting around this table, you know, in school.
00:15:21.880 It was, like, a small group reading a thing.
00:15:24.000 And it got to this boy, you know, and he said, still match, okay?
00:15:28.720 Okay, and I was, like, okay, and I was kind of, like, still match.
00:15:36.320 I was, like, relieved in this way that, I don't know, that someone could make an error that I, like, wasn't going to make.
00:15:44.380 Like, so there's a moment where, like, I guess I'm ahead.
00:15:46.700 Like, I guess I'm ahead of the game.
00:15:48.020 Yeah.
00:15:48.240 I thought I was, you know.
00:15:49.460 Right, right, right.
00:15:50.080 I thought I was so far behind.
00:15:51.440 Yeah, even I know that.
00:15:52.420 Remember, like, I was always unconfident saying the answers.
00:15:54.860 Like, I remember my third grade teacher, like, two times eight.
00:15:57.600 I'm, like, 16.
00:15:58.200 She's, like, good girl.
00:15:59.100 Okay.
00:15:59.760 Because, like, I just, like, said it finally or something.
00:16:02.340 By the way, two times eight.
00:16:02.720 Confident said it.
00:16:03.380 I would have sworn I was 18.
00:16:05.360 Like, good girl. 0.61
00:16:05.980 She was like, always like, the tough love, God.
00:16:08.020 Two times eight is 16.
00:16:09.340 Two. 0.98
00:16:09.780 Ridiculous. 0.98
00:16:10.700 Times eight. 0.98
00:16:11.460 Yeah.
00:16:11.720 Yeah.
00:16:12.440 I would have gone with 18.
00:16:15.100 Makes more sense.
00:16:16.000 What did I say?
00:16:16.540 Two times what? 0.78
00:16:17.280 Let's put another eight there.
00:16:18.640 Right.
00:16:19.480 Although, you know that kind of.
00:16:21.180 What?
00:16:21.700 When you double something, you don't really get it.
00:16:23.480 I know, but it makes better sense.
00:16:25.720 No, no.
00:16:26.060 You know the spirit in which I, I, I'm arguing poetically.
00:16:29.560 No, no, I know.
00:16:29.900 Yeah, yeah. 0.97
00:16:30.160 To be goddamn clear. 0.88
00:16:31.260 Imagine if I wasn't like, what do you mean? 0.96
00:16:33.540 Of course.

00:18:06.500 it's like the poetry episode
00:18:07.920 Claire's written her poem
00:18:08.860 that's like a house burns
00:18:10.120 a house burns
00:18:10.960 you know whatever 1.00
00:18:11.520 and like this girl's like
00:18:13.040 but it doesn't make any sense
00:18:15.640 and it's like the worst
00:18:18.300 you know what I mean
00:18:18.760 like the girl in class
00:18:19.500 whatever
00:18:19.840 and the teacher's like
00:18:20.520 teacher's like no duh
00:18:21.720 you know the teacher's cool
00:18:22.840 what does make sense
00:18:24.860 what could possibly make sense
00:18:27.420 and why would there be any value in a human producing sense
00:18:32.700 when the machine sure could, couldn't she?
00:18:38.900 Driverless cars, will you enter them?
00:18:40.620 Well, the fact that we're already on the road with them, really.
00:18:43.560 I'm really kind of surprised she did it.
00:18:46.100 Well, like someone said to me, I'm like,
00:18:47.620 yeah, I don't think I run one of those or whatever, right?
00:18:50.220 Actually, now I think I could, by the way. 0.99
00:18:51.860 I'm going to be fucked by a driverless car in like three years. 0.99
00:18:53.520 In two days, yeah. 1.00
00:18:54.220 No, no, I'm ready.
00:18:55.400 You'll be fine, yeah.
00:18:56.100 And like this person, like this guy was like, well, you know, statistically, I'm like, I know.
00:19:02.160 Statistically what?
00:19:03.160 It's safer than a human driver. 1.00
00:19:05.260 I argue we don't fucking know that shit. 1.00
00:19:06.860 They've been here for five minutes. 1.00
00:19:08.360 Even if it's right.
00:19:09.700 But even if it's statistically safer, OK, like if you could prove that.
00:19:13.620 Right.
00:19:14.540 I mean, this is why it's like I know.
00:19:16.760 And that's not how we make decisions.
00:19:17.920 Because here's the thing.
00:19:19.840 I don't want to die that way.
00:19:22.580 Also, here's what I'm imagining.
00:19:23.660 sure going down the street
00:19:25.160 you're in a driverless car
00:19:27.260 turning left
00:19:27.980 at a busy intersection
00:19:28.960 and it's
00:19:30.480 like do you know what I mean
00:19:31.680 like it's just
00:19:32.560 you're like
00:19:33.480 you got that
00:19:34.940 here we go
00:19:37.960 it's pretty
00:19:39.020 humorous
00:19:40.220 and the wheels
00:19:40.740 when you know
00:19:41.220 we see driverless
00:19:42.760 we see them go by
00:19:43.560 it's pretty humor
00:19:44.240 like humorous
00:19:45.120 like that we're
00:19:45.740 like it's a little bit like
00:19:46.900 comical of like the future
00:19:48.460 like you know what I mean
00:19:49.160 like well it happened
00:19:50.000 here we are
00:19:50.680 well it happened to
00:19:51.580 I've
00:19:52.300 it was like
00:19:53.160 Are they everywhere or only in the big cities?
00:19:55.860 I don't know.
00:19:56.540 I think they were only dropped.
00:19:58.080 You know?
00:19:58.460 I don't know.
00:19:59.880 But I got really close to one the other day.
00:20:01.960 It was, like, zipping by my parents' house.
00:20:03.500 It was, like, right in front of me.
00:20:04.020 I mean, emotionally.
00:20:05.000 There it is.
00:20:06.020 Because I've gotten close.
00:20:08.540 But some of these robots, you know, they're named?
00:20:11.800 The delivery robots, they have names on them.
00:20:13.400 Oh, yeah.
00:20:13.700 Cleo, okay?
00:20:15.200 And me and Ben.
00:20:16.800 Okay, whatever.
00:20:17.140 But keep an eye out for your old friend.
00:20:21.180 Yeah, you see Patrick twice.
00:20:23.160 In Santa Monica.
00:20:24.120 Really?
00:20:24.820 So individual names?
00:20:26.160 Yes.
00:20:26.960 Kate.
00:20:27.220 Where's the name?
00:20:28.560 Plastered on the side.
00:20:30.360 That's sick.
00:20:30.980 So you're like, I'm like, is that?
00:20:33.760 Is that, is that Cleo?
00:20:35.240 Okay.
00:20:35.660 And like, they're cute.
00:20:36.800 You know, the whole thing.
00:20:38.060 I always ask this question.
00:20:39.560 If you put eyes on it, is it more likely or less likely to get bashed with a bat?
00:20:43.200 Serious.
00:20:43.840 It's a really good question.
00:20:45.260 Isn't that?
00:20:45.520 There's just such a risk.
00:20:46.480 Wow.
00:20:46.700 That's a really good question.
00:20:47.340 Do you, because do you hate, like, do we hate that?
00:20:51.440 do we hate I guess is my question yeah and the answer is yes yeah um I guess you you're you get
00:20:59.380 you might get love and you might get hate if you're gonna get in the game of seeming to have
00:21:03.240 consciousness which is what two eyes will do god I really want to say the two eyes would prevent
00:21:07.420 the bashing but in certain populations and among a certain set that's the thing it's like it pushes 0.97
00:21:12.980 it it pushes it to the edges maybe of the bell curve of like of like the real fuckos are gonna 0.97
00:21:20.840 to run it with a bat mother okay yeah yeah and then and then the other side you're getting people 1.00
00:21:25.480 who want to you know put put a warm sweater on it because it's cold no I was gonna say you saying 1.00
00:21:30.280 about mother about that reminded me I was completely off topic well but um about chimps 0.98
00:21:36.120 you know the famous chimp attack the one that ripped off she was fucking shredded ripped 0.99
00:21:40.560 yeah no I was I was utterly enchanted by reading about it it's unbelievable but the chimp was 0.96
00:21:46.200 triggered by elmo the woman knew the chimp chimp knew the woman the chimp came over look i brought
00:21:54.220 you elmo the chimp what takes one look sees elmo looks back at her loses it runs toward her rips
00:22:02.560 her whole face off and what's interesting is the elmo was bonded to a very positive memory
00:22:08.040 with the chimp was sick with grief because the chimp's human father had died and the chimp's
00:22:15.440 human father had there was some connection with elmo so it's almost like the chimp saw elmo it 1.00
00:22:19.360 was like my father's dead and you're gonna fucking pay the price bitch elmo i cannot believe i didn't 1.00
00:22:26.200 know this yeah the chimp was like what'd you bring me 1.00
00:22:35.600 and then 0.88
00:22:39.140 it's so heartbreaking
00:22:44.540 is that the same champ
00:22:45.840 still doesn't destroy the object
00:22:47.240 still knows enough to know not
00:22:50.680 so upsetting
00:22:51.160 and then is that the same champ
00:22:52.400 that ripped the car
00:22:54.420 the door off the cop car
00:22:56.220 went like this 0.99
00:22:56.820 like shoot me to the cop 0.99
00:22:57.980 basically 0.99
00:22:58.440 because it knew
00:22:59.700 it was like I'm
00:23:00.460 the same champ
00:23:01.140 I think it's the same champ
00:23:02.420 I don't know
00:23:03.120 begged to be shot by the cop
00:23:04.640 right 0.99
00:23:05.360 It's over.
00:23:05.880 Okay, do it.
00:23:10.700 Anyway, where are you with Crossroads, the vegan kitchen?
00:23:15.220 How much are you eating there?
00:23:17.680 A lot.
00:23:18.460 Well, I've been away, but now that I'm back in town.
00:23:21.480 We have a gracias madre that we need to get on the books.
00:23:24.600 Yeah, I have about 19 pages from their menu downloaded.
00:23:30.600 I asked them to send it to me to know exactly the cross-contamination.
00:23:33.900 They have nut-free asterisks on certain things.
00:23:36.460 Yeah, but it's a little more than that.
00:23:38.340 Because, for example, like, the chips are fried in the same.
00:23:41.140 The other chips are good.
00:23:42.480 And they're fried in the same thing.
00:23:43.540 So I'm a little bit, I'm dancing with the devil a little bit over there.
00:23:46.720 So it's not completely.
00:23:48.900 Because you're always dancing with the devil, right?
00:23:51.480 Outside of your home, in a kitchen that serves certain things with nuts.
00:23:54.340 That's what I mean.
00:23:54.740 But, I mean, I'm dancing with the devil even on their nut-free things.
00:23:57.560 It's like, so, I don't know.
00:24:01.320 Yeah, I'm not yet.
00:24:02.660 But I'm not, first of all, I don't yet have a close and personal relationship with them.
00:24:06.940 Yet being the key word.
00:24:07.960 Which I don't really feel until I do my favorite thing, which is writing in restaurants, okay?
00:24:13.240 It's me and my laptop pulling it out in a restaurant and ordering.
00:24:16.520 And then I come daily, which I've been doing at this other place.
00:24:19.020 What place?
00:24:19.540 I don't want people finding my spot.
00:24:21.240 Just tell me we'll beep it. 1.00
00:24:23.640 Beeping is such a bitch. 1.00
00:24:24.960 Just say it. 1.00
00:24:25.480 Hope, organic kitchen.
00:24:26.700 We went together.
00:24:27.380 Wait, you're kidding.
00:24:27.600 I started going constantly.
00:24:28.520 No, you're kidding.
00:24:29.700 So I got constantly, and then I won a thing off their Christmas tree, $100.
00:24:32.640 No, no, stop.
00:24:33.340 $100.
00:24:33.960 Jacqueline, Jacqueline.
00:24:34.780 Yeah, I got a $100 gift certificate.
00:24:37.680 And that's like karma of like, I buy—
00:24:39.060 What was it?
00:24:39.480 You won it off their Christmas tree, meaning what?
00:24:40.720 You pull an arm?
00:24:41.120 It was Chris—yeah, it was like, you pull one off, it has a number attached to a prize.
00:24:45.000 And he, like, couldn't get over the fact that I won it because I had been, like, their best customer.
00:24:49.720 I'd been coming, like, daily for, like—
00:24:51.040 That's so cute.
00:24:52.280 Like, straight after my workout, heading over there with a laptop, doing some work, and then taking more home for Chris.
00:24:59.040 Unbelievable.
00:24:59.700 So they were so happy it went to you.
00:25:01.280 Yeah.
00:25:01.920 That's cute.
00:25:02.480 But there's like this thing that happens where there's just me again and then, oh my God,
00:25:06.020 you again, you know?
00:25:07.080 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:25:07.660 And like me pulling up a laptop.
00:25:09.300 There's like, it's like, I wouldn't do it anywhere.
00:25:12.120 Yeah.
00:25:12.640 But a place like that.
00:25:13.400 And it's a very casual place.
00:25:14.480 It's a very casual.
00:25:15.980 Yeah, yeah.
00:25:16.560 Lunch and that weekday.
00:25:17.820 You're lucky, right?
00:25:18.660 That you're getting business.
00:25:19.840 So I think pulling a laptop in that kind of place, you sit against the wall.
00:25:24.560 It's very casual.
00:25:24.980 Not offensive.
00:25:25.500 I don't have a Bluetooth, you know.
00:25:27.200 you're not

00:26:46.780 let's just say something crazy is happening right you're hosting the oscars and for some reason
00:26:53.280 and I have to watch it there.
00:26:54.900 I wouldn't do it.
00:26:55.940 Sorry, it's my friend.
00:26:57.320 Like, I'm trying to think,
00:26:58.540 like, what are the events?
00:26:59.260 I actually think that version
00:27:00.500 would be fun.
00:27:01.300 No, but you'd bring them in on it.
00:27:02.660 Well, then you'd have to bring them in.
00:27:04.160 Yeah, yeah.
00:27:04.580 You'd have to get, guys,
00:27:06.780 my best friend in the whole world.
00:27:08.160 I would literally do this.
00:27:08.900 I'm not kidding.
00:27:09.320 I'll do this.
00:27:10.080 Dinner's on me.
00:27:10.580 Your next round's on me.
00:27:11.460 I'm not going to dinner.
00:27:12.080 I go, I go, I go.
00:27:13.920 Everyone, your next round's on me.
00:27:16.540 My friend is accepting her Oscar.
00:27:18.220 Yeah, exactly.
00:27:18.780 My friend's category is up.
00:27:19.960 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:27:20.360 For the Oscars.
00:27:20.780 So I have to watch it.
00:27:22.640 Okay, so even then I would go outside.
00:27:24.580 I would go outside.
00:27:25.100 I know.
00:27:25.580 I would take it outside.
00:27:26.440 There's nothing that could compel me to do that.
00:27:30.580 And he was just watching TV.
00:27:36.020 But to his credit.
00:27:37.200 Have you considered?
00:27:38.360 Wait, here it comes.
00:27:39.160 To his credit, people started filling in,
00:27:43.120 and then two people sat next to him, and then he turned it off.
00:27:46.500 So I think he thought, okay, there's more people filling in right now.
00:27:48.400 Right, he felt like it wasn't really bothering you.
00:27:50.780 I wonder if he told himself that, you know.
00:27:53.420 They couldn't hear?
00:27:54.160 Well, no, but the idea that, like,
00:27:55.500 well, if I was sitting here with a friend,
00:27:56.840 we'd be talking at this volume.
00:27:58.180 Exactly, but of course.
00:27:58.920 Which is Larry David.
00:27:59.460 Which, of course.
00:28:00.780 It was a Larry David thing.
00:28:02.820 Oh, wait.
00:28:03.160 It was the opposite.
00:28:04.300 Larry David talks to himself.
00:28:04.700 No, no, it's really funny.
00:28:06.160 It's really funny.
00:28:06.780 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:28:07.460 The vid is a woman's at a restaurant talking.

00:28:12.520 No, no, it's really funny.
00:28:13.600 Also, also, we go on there.
00:28:14.680 But, right, human conversation is a certain,
00:28:16.720 there's a certain, you know.
00:28:18.320 Well, exactly.
00:28:19.240 Sound to it that's.

00:29:45.280 oh I love that
00:29:47.200 so I
00:29:48.440 due to my TMJ
00:29:49.800 ongoing issue
00:29:50.640 I've been using
00:29:51.640 a nightly retainer
00:29:52.420 for the first time
00:29:53.020 in many years
00:29:53.620 and you don't have
00:29:54.740 you don't have a night guard
00:29:55.600 well
00:29:56.640 no
00:29:58.180 you have
00:29:58.600 but I'm supposed to
00:29:59.220 but explain
00:30:00.460 did they cut it for you now
00:30:02.180 fresh
00:30:02.820 due to your TMJ
00:30:04.100 from years ago
00:30:04.700 or they just told you
00:30:05.520 they go wear your bike guard
00:30:06.820 oh
00:30:07.120 I went in
00:30:07.940 they had it
00:30:08.280 they fit the dentist
00:30:09.120 you know
00:30:09.560 fit it
00:30:10.060 oh new
00:30:10.540 no no
00:30:11.480 I got the bike guard
00:30:13.720 no joke
00:30:15.280 I mean, five years ago.
00:30:16.680 And I went, I'm not going to wear this.
00:30:18.540 And I didn't.
00:30:19.700 Put it in one night.
00:30:20.560 It's time.
00:30:21.000 And it was to protect from grinding.
00:30:22.440 Yeah.
00:30:22.860 Like minor ground out.
00:30:23.820 Clenching or grinding. 0.67
00:30:25.340 Clenching.
00:30:25.940 No, but this is what I'm asking you, Kate.
00:30:28.280 Because it won't, it won't, unless you're talking about a very specific kind of retainer.
00:30:32.320 Yeah.
00:30:32.580 Right? 1.00
00:30:32.960 A butt guard, it won't stop the clenching because you can clench, clench, clench. 1.00
00:30:36.800 Like the muscle. 0.76
00:30:37.640 Yeah.
00:30:37.780 You can clench anything, right?
00:30:38.500 Yeah.
00:30:39.600 It'll only keep the end of the tooth from being protected.
00:30:42.260 unless it's a very specific device that doesn't allow you to clamp down yeah i mean right do you
00:30:48.920 see what i'm saying i do i'm confused about the bite guard they're like it's just protecting the
00:30:52.700 teeth from like if you're clenching no i think it's about i know because no because i i know i'm
00:30:56.860 still clenching it but i guess like if it were technically keeping a kickstand of your mouth
00:31:01.700 open yeah then it's not going all the way i called that to the dentist he was blown away kickstand
00:31:06.380 well i was like you know you put that kickstand in you know what i mean like to keep you know
00:31:09.780 but like it kind of relax, open.
00:31:11.360 Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:31:12.160 You know.
00:31:12.560 He loved it.
00:31:13.260 I think he loved it.
00:31:14.780 Maybe I just remember wanting him to love it.
00:31:17.560 I'm not sure.
00:31:18.020 I'm sure he loved it. 1.00
00:31:19.840 Be a fool not to. 1.00
00:31:21.220 But wait. 1.00
00:31:21.780 Anyway, sorry.
00:31:22.200 So the retainer.
00:31:23.420 But you're right.
00:31:23.900 I have a lot of questions still.
00:31:26.020 But maybe that's a neck pain chair.
00:31:29.520 Retainer hygiene cleaning.
00:31:31.700 Oh, here we go.
00:31:33.380 Are you getting served the ads yet for that thing?
00:31:35.480 Zuma. 0.62
00:31:35.800 Zima.
00:31:36.360 Yeah.
00:31:36.780 I was served that for like five years.
00:31:38.100 They are pushing it so hard.
00:31:40.080 Well, you're terrified.
00:31:40.580 I signed up.
00:31:41.280 They go, I almost was, I go, okay, I'll buy it.
00:31:44.240 I'll buy it.

00:31:50.180 I know.
00:31:50.620 Like a hundred.
00:31:51.780 That's what you have to do.
00:31:53.060 And then, no.
00:31:53.840 You have to get outside of Instagram and Google it out there.
00:31:56.060 Honey, you think I didn't do that?
00:31:57.160 It's on Amazon for $99.99.
00:31:58.700 No, not prices, honey.
00:32:00.600 Okay.
00:32:00.900 I mean, check if it's legit.
00:32:02.520 Well, I see different things, but the point is, but I go, yeah.
00:32:05.940 I remember thinking it looked compelling.
00:32:07.320 I'm very compelled by it.
00:32:09.680 I don't even have a bike guard to sterilize.
00:32:13.760 I think if they're serious, I should send them now. 0.58
00:32:15.900 Well, I'm going to get a bike guard in order to have a reason to use the Zima.
00:32:19.160 I do need a bike guard.
00:32:20.080 Okay, they've been begging me for years.
00:32:21.180 They go, Doc, I don't have it.
00:32:22.620 I love how the dentist is the car mechanic, right?
00:32:26.840 That you can actually have these arguments with a dentist, like, we'll hold on this.
00:32:30.940 Like, I'm like, you got to spread it out for me, buddy.
00:32:33.860 I become the same.
00:32:34.740 I go, I'm in showbiz, okay?
00:32:35.960 Yeah.
00:32:36.660 I go, I'm living on a dream.
00:32:38.960 Yeah.
00:32:39.400 I have those conversations in the chair, staring up.
00:32:41.460 You mean about like, don't charge me.
00:32:42.800 Don't tell me I got to do this.
00:32:43.840 More like, how dire are these feelings?
00:32:47.140 Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally.
00:32:48.120 These composites.
00:32:49.580 Two composites for Novak.
00:32:51.980 You know, like.
00:32:52.800 Right.
00:32:54.280 It's like, I've literally freed myself.
00:32:57.580 That's cool.
00:32:58.140 Instead of just being.
00:32:58.600 Haggle it down.
00:32:59.360 Yeah, yeah.
00:32:59.740 To be like, not haggling, just owning up to being like, can that wait?
00:33:03.700 Totally.
00:33:04.320 Well, guess what?
00:33:04.540 Are you going to load me up with 200 bucks a tooth?
00:33:07.360 I usually can.
00:33:08.780 200 bucks a tooth?
00:33:09.720 Where are you?
00:33:10.820 More like 1,400.
00:33:12.280 No, I mean, like, there are certain things where they're telling you, like, you need
00:33:15.780 all of these.
00:33:16.160 Yeah, I know.
00:33:16.560 And it's like, oh, my God.
00:33:17.100 You're adding up the teeth, and you're like, you know?
00:33:20.800 Of course.
00:33:21.920 Oh, man.
00:33:23.200 What do you feel when you hear your name in a public space?
00:33:26.040 Relief?
00:33:27.640 You know, like, hey, could mean anything.
00:33:30.540 Actually, I have a positive association.
00:33:32.360 Like, oh, my friend's here.
00:33:34.200 You're like, can't wait to see who it is, right?
00:33:36.400 Kind of.
00:33:36.880 No hesitation?
00:33:38.260 Yeah, sure.
00:33:39.080 But I'd say it's more positive.
00:33:41.600 Yeah.
00:33:42.120 I think, I don't know how I feel about it.
00:33:44.280 Hair's filthy on air.
00:33:46.360 It's funny because, you know, if you didn't say that, it just looks like gorgeous.
00:33:50.200 It's a natural sheen.
00:33:50.980 Well, it's not actually dirty.
00:33:51.720 It's just like, you know, you work out, your hair's all.
00:33:55.160 Yeah, that would be considered dirty, I think.
00:33:57.560 Sweating into the hair.
00:33:58.560 Oh, yeah, I guess so.
00:34:00.740 Ew.
00:34:01.180 But it doesn't look bad.
00:34:02.120 I'm just saying you don't have to tell them.
00:34:03.560 Look at this, my water lantern.
00:34:06.140 64 ounces of pure heaven.
00:34:08.100 Remember, okay, this is, I'm very excited.
00:34:10.780 I had one of these today.
00:34:11.860 Okay, I'm very excited.
00:34:12.940 Okay, let's think.
00:34:13.660 How much water have I had today?
00:34:15.460 Two sips.
00:34:16.880 Okay.
00:34:17.540 I've had the coffees, but two sips.
00:34:21.060 Do you understand?
00:34:21.940 Are you being hyperbolic?
00:34:23.060 No.
00:34:23.560 I remember the two sips.
00:34:24.480 It was to take a pill.
00:34:26.540 Jacqueline.
00:34:27.540 I just want to get real about my water intake.
00:34:29.680 Okay, and go, what's going on?
00:34:30.600 You need to get one of these.
00:34:31.700 So, now, when I'm working out, it didn't work out today,
00:34:35.020 when I'm working out today, I do at least two.
00:34:37.000 Yeah, Takeya.
00:34:37.820 Oh, yeah, I could use another Takeya.
00:34:39.540 You know what I'm trying right now?
00:34:41.060 What?
00:34:41.220 A beaker.
00:34:42.700 Huh? 1.00
00:34:43.020 B-K-R. 0.99
00:34:43.940 Oh, I've had that. 1.00
00:34:45.100 Oh, honey, I've had a few of those.
00:34:46.900 Filling it is an issue.
00:34:47.920 They're gorgeous.
00:34:48.480 Why? 0.97
00:34:48.860 I think you need a funnel. 0.94
00:34:49.740 It's narrow. 1.00
00:34:50.620 Let's get some more water bottles coming in here.
00:34:52.640 I could use another Takeya.
00:34:54.200 Okay, I could use a first Takeya. 1.00
00:34:55.460 Beaker, B-K-R. 1.00
00:34:56.160 Definitely B-K-R. 1.00
00:34:57.080 I want to get a, I want, I want a special custom partnership straw situation with them. 1.00
00:35:05.080 Because they have these straw attachments.
00:35:06.580 I'm not sure what we need. 0.63
00:35:07.440 Yeah, with beaker.
00:35:08.080 And then it is pronounced beaker, I've got to imagine. 1.00
00:35:10.320 B-K-R. 1.00
00:35:11.020 I know, I didn't know. 0.92
00:35:11.420 And by the way, I mean, they're smart because it's like, everyone loves that, right?
00:35:14.060 Everyone loves, it reminds me of a beaker.
00:35:16.800 But beakers, Erlenmeyer flasks.
00:35:18.340 No, no, I know what a beaker is, but I'm just like, does it?
00:35:21.000 It doesn't sound like a beaker at all.
00:35:23.260 No, but I think it's the spirit of the beaker, okay?
00:35:25.840 Because what is a beaker?
00:35:27.080 It's a glass.
00:35:28.440 Right, right, right.
00:35:29.640 No, it's a silicone sleeve.
00:35:31.180 They're nice.
00:35:31.820 They're not cheap too.
00:35:32.900 What, 50 bucks?
00:35:33.360 No.
00:35:34.020 It was a Christmas list item.
00:35:36.060 How many?
00:35:36.660 What color?
00:35:37.880 I went with a...
00:35:38.540 One liter?
00:35:39.180 A very, very diluted kind of mint color.
00:35:42.000 Icy mint color.
00:35:42.880 And I thought about it.
00:35:43.640 What's going to carry me through this year?
00:35:46.420 What did I toss?
00:35:47.240 I'm tossing some old ones.
00:35:48.840 I got to say, I'm struggling with the stainless steel water bottle.
00:35:51.760 I'm struggling.
00:35:52.380 I want them gone.
00:35:53.580 I want them gone.
00:35:54.240 That looks like...
00:35:55.360 I want them gone.
00:35:56.380 I need...
00:35:56.540 Mold.
00:35:56.860 I think it's glass. 0.99
00:35:58.480 I fucking think you're right. 0.99
00:36:00.240 Can you believe it? 0.99
00:36:00.960 My fertility mug?
00:36:02.200 Yeah?
00:36:02.520 I've abandoned it.
00:36:03.360 Oh, yeah.
00:36:03.860 Because of similar with the straw.
00:36:05.020 Because you look at it and you go, that looks.
00:36:06.260 Well, I've also did pipe cleaner with the straw.
00:36:07.900 I know.
00:36:08.240 We all know what happened. 0.96
00:36:10.740 Disgusting, yeah.
00:36:11.540 Something was in there. 0.93
00:36:13.440 Yeah.
00:36:14.180 Now you have to go.
00:36:15.140 I'm not going to go.
00:36:15.600 I never want to see this again.
00:36:16.720 You have to go, like, you know, it's feeding the immune system.

00:36:23.400 Yeah, yeah, definitely. 0.97
00:36:24.500 i mean even listerine the fact that we thought that like kill them all kill them all but we 0.55

00:36:55.900 That's what you want them doing.
00:36:57.300 They clean it out.
00:36:57.820 You want them eating the beans for you.
00:36:59.520 Yeah, they eat the beans that leave the soup for free.
00:37:03.880 What do you call that?

00:41:38.740 Five, six months of cake and it's pillowy?
00:41:41.640 Fantasy of a meal prep.
00:41:42.440 The cake is cake?
00:41:43.720 I know.
00:41:44.320 It's pretty incredible.
00:41:45.380 And to be clear, it wasn't wrapped tightly.
00:41:48.260 That's a shock.
00:41:49.240 No, no.
00:41:49.520 It was in a bag that was kind of loose.
00:41:50.780 And I went.
00:41:51.280 Did you break it?
00:41:52.160 I would open it up and I would go, I would see the, for months, see the cake.
00:41:55.820 Oh, God, it's gorgeous.
00:41:56.740 Oh, God, it's in a loose bag.
00:41:57.920 Oh, God, it was like this constant thing.
00:41:59.280 I go, I could serve it.
00:42:01.520 Loose bag, it's fresh.
00:42:02.480 What did you do?
00:42:02.820 You took it out and you let it sit there?
00:42:04.500 Let it thaw.
00:42:05.520 Thaw on the counter?
00:42:06.420 Mm-hmm.
00:42:07.020 Sliced in?
00:42:07.780 Mm-hmm.
00:42:09.180 Wow.
00:42:10.140 Cakey.
00:42:11.040 Yeah, you would not believe it would have been frozen for that long.
00:42:15.140 Didn't have a freezer taste.
00:42:17.100 What?
00:42:17.400 I went away for a week, left my fridge open.
00:42:19.320 No.
00:42:19.660 I mean, the seal is broken.
00:42:22.160 So it doesn't close without a hearty push.
00:42:24.460 Yeah.
00:42:25.700 Guess what happened?
00:42:26.580 Nothing.
00:42:27.220 It was totally fine.
00:42:28.420 Wow.
00:42:28.920 I mean, there wasn't much in there, I guess. 0.91
00:42:31.580 But, you know, people freak the fuck out.
00:42:33.980 You know what I mean?
00:42:34.380 They go, oh, God, they're so scared to leave the house.
00:42:36.920 Had a mini fridge break last week.
00:42:39.920 You got a mini fridge?
00:42:41.060 Mini fridge in the office.
00:42:42.160 Wow.
00:42:43.120 In the back house?
00:42:44.200 Beers, brewskis with the boys?
00:42:46.080 Well, right now it's packed with Celsius.
00:42:48.080 Oh, yeah.
00:42:48.620 Get into your office and go.
00:42:52.160 what celsius sent us some celsius recently no oh you just haven't made it through that yeah
00:42:59.120 yeah those celsius long gone those have been you're drinking my recycled celsius can now
00:43:05.380 probably from you mean from tap water you pissed it out is that what you're saying
00:43:09.220 no i just mean um i mean i i finished those so long ago yeah possibly the metal has already
00:43:16.180 been recycled into the new can i see what you're saying i thought you meant that you had drank
00:43:20.460 the celsius pissed it out it ended up in the los angeles system well that for sure and i had taken
00:43:25.440 in top water and therefore had your celsius imagine just like well no it's just about to
00:43:32.060 bring up the question of reservoirs and i'm just gonna pull back on it i've always been confused
00:43:35.960 by them well of course dipping their feet in there you know i've been going for a swim in the res
00:43:40.280 i mean it's not allowed right no you can't you shouldn't but i feel like someone sees a reservoir
00:43:44.820 They don't know.
00:43:46.560 They just get in.
00:43:47.180 They go, it's a lake.
00:43:49.220 Obviously, the stuff's being filtered, isn't it?
00:43:51.580 Or not.
00:43:52.400 Getting a flashback to a movie where a kid is sucked into a thing in a reservoir.
00:43:58.420 I love that.
00:43:59.880 You think you're in a...
00:44:00.940 The movie was called The War.
00:44:02.220 Having a huge flashback.
00:44:06.420 Terrifying image from underneath the reservoir.
00:44:09.040 Thinking you're just in a lake, which, by the way, a lake or a pond, right?
00:44:12.880 which one of the safest in the sense of
00:44:15.540 no sharks
00:44:16.380 and you're not expecting
00:44:18.140 turbulent waters
00:44:19.980 it's not going to pull you down
00:44:21.020 that's why lakes are kind of scary to me
00:44:23.760 it's like they're like we're a lake
00:44:26.180 what could possibly go wrong
00:44:28.060 a trout nibbles on your pinky toe
00:44:30.540 and then
00:44:32.100 that's why I believe lakes are
00:44:34.220 so prominent in
00:44:35.440 ghost stories etc
00:44:37.540 perfect for the haunting
00:44:39.120 because they're so still
00:44:41.480 Yeah.
00:44:43.020 Because they're like chalices.
00:44:45.420 They're receptacles.
00:44:47.360 They're barely, they're like an idea of what a vessel of water could be.
00:44:51.400 Like you're saying.
00:44:52.640 But anyway, to think you're…
00:44:53.960 Lakes in a mountain.
00:44:54.660 To think…
00:44:55.240 The mountain is just…
00:44:56.720 So you're trying to tell me, mountaintops, I'm going to draw it out.
00:45:00.280 I know exactly what you're thinking.
00:45:02.380 You're thinking this.
00:45:02.980 This is always baffling.
00:45:03.580 Mountain, valley, mountain.
00:45:05.420 This is what…
00:45:06.320 There are two mountains.
00:45:07.320 Yeah.
00:45:08.320 The water between them?
00:45:09.100 This and water just comes in here and that's a lake.
00:45:12.860 I think you're thinking mountains a little is a little weird.
00:45:15.800 I think you need to think of it more like if you had a cake.
00:45:20.180 Okay.
00:45:21.320 Get a cake.
00:45:22.400 Now I'm listening.
00:45:23.520 Okay.
00:45:23.800 And you punch down the center of the cake.
00:45:26.100 Fill it with water flew in.
00:45:28.720 And filled it.
00:45:30.800 Oh, that's why I definitely think.
00:45:32.280 Very good teaching.
00:45:33.820 I know.
00:45:34.200 Very good teaching skills.
00:45:35.380 Imagine you homeschooling my daughter.
00:45:39.500 No, you're thrown back in time.
00:45:41.360 And I'm your teacher.
00:45:42.960 I would love that.
00:45:43.920 We have to go undercover.
00:45:45.740 To solve a plague crime. 0.54
00:45:46.620 With you in small form.
00:45:49.000 It's you, but everyone else sees a child.
00:45:51.660 Me.
00:45:52.460 You know that it's me.
00:45:53.220 I'm a substitute teacher with you.

00:46:56.140 I read
00:46:56.500 no I don't know
00:46:57.360 but I saw that
00:46:58.480 my focus on the planes
00:47:00.100 has become so
00:47:00.940 over the top
00:47:01.700 that it literally
00:47:02.660 we take off
00:47:03.420 and they're going
00:47:03.880 what do you want
00:47:04.340 when you're landing.
00:47:04.920 And I'm going, what do you mean?
00:47:05.880 Okay.
00:47:06.600 Landing?
00:47:07.020 What are you talking about?
00:47:07.840 It's like insane.
00:47:09.600 And so then I was reading ADHD.
00:47:10.900 They're like, the plane noise
00:47:11.960 is like a specific frequency.
00:47:13.240 Oh, of course.
00:47:13.740 And being locked in
00:47:15.040 and not being able to move,
00:47:16.320 like no distractions.
00:47:17.380 See, this is interesting
00:47:18.080 because I have one of the most
00:47:19.260 productive writing sessions
00:47:21.000 private of my life on a plane.
00:47:24.540 I never tried again.
00:47:25.680 I'm going, yeah, I'm going,

00:47:31.200 Chris was like,
00:47:31.620 why don't you just go back and forth?
00:47:32.920 But I think he once told me that.
